Saviour Transfiguration Church and St. Sophia Cathedral in the town of Polatsk (T)
Wojciech Fedoruk Poland - 10-Jul-19
This is a very strange nomination. Belarus proposed two churches that now have nothing in common except being in the same town of Polatsk. The first one – Saviour Transfiguration Church – is one of the oldest and most important churches in Belarus. Now it is part of the complex of the Monastery of Transfiguration and St. Euphrosine, a bit far from the center. Judging from the outside, the church is the least prominent building of the monastery (it is also the most distant from the entrance). Its real value is inside, as the whole interior is covered with original beautiful frescoes. During my visit (June 2019) the church was closed for renovation but you could look inside. The best frescoes were also presented on billboards around the church

I'm with Ian - Brasilia fascinates me! I loved the brazen confidence that that Niemeyer showed in his design for Brazil's new capital in the 1960's. I love the pomp and circumstance that you can nearly always find in the Eixo Monumental area. I especially love sitting in the Catedral Metropolitana and just staring at the glass. In my opinion, Brasilia can be well accomplished in a long day with a lot of walking. The Praça dos Trés Poderes is the center park-like area with the key buildings surrounding the long plaza.

Avignon is quite touristy site but there is a good reason for that. Provence region is simply beautiful and Palais des Papes together with Pont d`Avignon is must-see for every tourist in the region. It has a serious drawback that Avignon has turned into a tourist trap in part. Fortunatelly, there is still relativelly tranquil places in historical parts of Avignon that embraces the inscribed core. I enjoyed also a boat trip on Rhone river.
The small core zone includes the monuments on the Rock of Doms and the adjacent torso of the bridge. All the monuments are built in two major styles - Romanesque and Gothic. As emphasized also by others, especially the Palais des Papes is an empty shell. But I enjoyed my visit despite this fact. I took it as a textbook of architecture, admired vault systems (PHOTO) and all the decorations in stone, and ignored instalations, objects and crowds inside. However, I found the huge metalic construction inside the main court of the Palace used as a podium for occassional concerts very very disturbing. The combined ticket for the Palace and the Bridge is for as much as 14.5 EUR that is quite a lot for empty rooms and for what remained from the bridge

Fascinating place on the tourist island of Tenerife. About a 2 hour coach ride up from the seaside resorts. It has moonscape like elements and lots of rock formations around the slopes of the giant volcano. There is a cable car to the top of the volcano from the coach park on the higher slopes, or you can walk up if brave.
Unique environment for plants and insects at such a high altitude with the volcano rising directly from the ocean.
We booked a coach tour from our hotel but you could easily hire a car and drive up as you would have more time to explore and not have 50 people following you in a group.
Francke Foundation Buildings (T)
Jakob Frenzel Germany - 04-Jul-19
August 2018- our last stop on the roadtripbefore coming back to Berlin.
Halle is a nice East German city. It has stilla lot of remains from GDR, including old advertisements, lack of renovation, some socialist buildings. Definitely worse visiting. But then there is still the Freankesche Stiftung. An historic housing complex run by the church for living, working and learning.
A nice ensemble, but for WHS i do not think it is sigificant enough.
Water Management System of Augsburg
2.5 Klaus Freisinger Austria - 08-Jul-19
Augsburg is a great historic city with many interesting features and one would have expected a nomination of the historic centre and/or the Fuggerei (the social housing complex built by the world's wealthiest family at the time). The nomination of the water management system came as a bit of a surprise to me, but I guess this is a way to stand out from the crowd of medieval cities and to put a more unique angle on their historic heritage. It's of course not the only WH site focussing on water management, but it does give a rare overview of its historic development from Roman and medieval to modern times. Basically any visit to Augsburg will bring you in contact with this site, and it is very pleasant to walk through this historic city and admire its many beautiful buildings
Vat Phou
Interesting stop-off between Parke and Don Det if you're travelling north/south through southern Laos. Stretching 1400m up a hillside it is an interesting collection of old temples and had a air conditioned visitor centre and large carpark. The walk up the hill to the top of the site is worth it for some statues and view back over the whole site.
Luther Memorials
2.5 Jakob Frenzel Germany - 04-Jul-19
August 2018 - finally we visited the place where it begun and ended. Luthers Life!
The town is quite deserted, in the middle of nowhere, few young people not many shops, cafes etc, only some Luther museums.
The hot, dry summer made it even less attractive, But we were happy to have visited once. We did not pay the horendous entrance fees, but just had a glimspe from outside.
Wittenberg, the place of work and sucess, is more interesting. Its locacted in a whs hotspot, next to the Elbe river and more significant concerning reformation. I have visited Wittenberg in 2006, 2010 and 2012. The Schlosskirche, the Melanchton house, the University, all interesting places to visit and important places in history.
Vizcaya Bridge
A short trip to the great city of Bilbao can be easily combined with an excursion to this unique bridge. There are both metro and train lines to Portugalete and Getxo (the towns on each riverbank) and it's just a short walk from the stations. Of course, you can see its impressive silhouette from far away already. The easiest way to use the bridge is to hop on a gondola, which runs every few minutes and only costs 45 cents for pedestrians (of course more for cyclists, motorbikers and cars). The downside is that you don't see a lot of the bridge above you, so for serious visitors, a tour of the footbridge on top is recommended (10 euros). First you walk to the platform above the ticket/souvenir shop, where you will be picked up by a guide and shown the way to the lift
Churches of the Pskov School of Architecture
3.0 Wojciech Fedoruk Poland - 13-Jul-19
I visited Pskov at the end of my trip to Russia in 2016. I did not expect anything special in Pskov, although wanted to visit this city, with links to the history of Poland and famous city walls. And indeed, massive city walls were the first thing that was outstanding in Pskov. The second one was its kremlin (here called Krom) which was very small comparing to Russian standards (where usually kremlins are quite broad) but one of the niciest. But honestly I had mixed feelings with the historical center – although overall it was fine, it lacked integrity and historical buildings were mixed with much newer ones. It did not help that the weather was rainy that day and at the end I got all wet.
Nîmes, l'Antiquité au présent (T)
Matejicek Czechia - 06-Jul-19
I spent last week of June 2019 in (former) Languedoc-Roussillion region, mostly in Montpellier, for last three days in Nimes, and did short trips to other interesting towns nearby – Arles and Avignon.
Nimes certainly was an elegant city with great monuments such as Amphitheatre and Masion Caree, but its beauty somehow shaded in comparison to its neighbors: Nimes was less lively than student town of Montpellier, in which I found also better examples of profane buildings from middle ages and later periods than in Nimes. Roman monuments of Nimes seemed somehow isolated in the rather ordinary streets with ordinary cathedral as compared to compact ensemble of Roman, Romanesque or Gothic structures in Arles or Avignon. The city of Nimes in Roman times was much bigger than today's historical center, but only few structures survived
Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe
August 2018 - on our way back to Berlin we still wanted to vist the remaining WHS. We always planned to visit Documenta Kassel at some point, but never made it. Now we had the chance to visit Kassel. We drove sträight to the top to visit Helcules and had a stunning view over the terraces and the whole park. We drove down to the park then and had another walk and views from thepark, up to the terraces. Unfortunely a lot of construction was going on at that time. We hope to come back at some point when it is more spectacular. Maybe documenta?
Upper Middle Rhine Valley
August 2018 - we started in Trier, drove along the Mosel and bought some fine wines to bring back to the family. In oder to not loose the whole day, we took a shortcut from Berkastel Kues to the Rhine and landed straight inside the cultural landscape in Bacharach. A beautiful small wooden framed town where we had good beer and Wurstsalat before driving slowly further north. First stop was at Burg Pfalzgrafenstein, called the Maus?, a former customs office inside the Rhine. Then we stopped again somewhere between Oberwesel and St. Goar, with great views at the Loreley, or rather the rock she sits at. Another stop was at Boppard and finally in Koblenz at the Deutsches Eck!
Group of Monuments at Mandu, Madhya Pradesh (T)
Jan-Willem Netherlands - 06-Jul-19
Visited this ghost city during a trip in December 1989. Nobody seemed to take care of the place back then. The area was open, and no fees needed to be paid. Our group spent the night in the open air under a full moon (if I remember correctly) on top of the pavillion and we woke up with a beautiful sunrise. Arriving in the evening and leaving early morning means that it was dark most of the time we were there. It served as our campsite and we had not much time to explore the grounds, but still, it was a wonderful experience.
Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and Canal
4.0 27for27 UK - 06-Jul-19
'The river in the sky' as it's known is a marvel to behold, even in the pouring rain when I visited. I took a train to Ruabon then the number 5 bus to Trevor which drops you off about a ten minute walk from the aqueduct. Once there you can pop into the free and informative visitor's centre which has a few videos and boards about the construction. After a decade of construction it opened in 1805 employing a cast iron trough to carry the five foot five inches deep canal 1007 feet (307 metres) across the River Dee which lies 127 feet (39 metres) below. It holds enough water to fill 16,000 baths.
After my second visit to Arles, I can say that I have visited all the inscribed structures and now I fully understand its OUV: (1) Amphitheatre – very impressive, and I enjoyed also exploration of the interior. (2) Antic Theatre – quite nice, but go to Orange if you want to see the well-preserved Roman theatre. (3) S Trophime cathedral and its adjacent cloister – this was my highlight. The main portal is simply masterpiece! (4) Alyscamps with S Honorat church – though tombs are not such elaborated as they are in Ravenna, I liked this burial site for its delicate atmosphere
Dorset and East Devon Coast
I only got the opportunity to explore the western end of this 95 mile long UNESCO World heritage coastline, but it's enough to get a taste of the cliffs and beaches that hold stones and fossils from the Triassic, Cretaceous and Jurassic periods. Though it's known as the Dorset and East Devon Coastline, the tourism board promote it as the Jurassic Coast, I guess thanks to Steven Spielberg and Universal.
I was with my bike so cycled from the train station at Wool to the Durdle Door
3.0 Watkinstravel Canada - 01-Jul-19
Although Mompox was an important and prosperous port upriver from Cartagena, it was never very large. It hasn't really grown and has a very relaxed and lethargic atmosphere. It's no wonder rocking chairs are popular here. We quickly took over a few of our own at a little cafe and just watched the river flow by.
Arriving in the early morning off an overnight bus, our first impressions of Mompox were not positive. Bus offices are at least a few blocks inland while the historic core runs parallel to the river and is only a few hundred meters long and about 2 blocks wide. Outside of this clean, preserved colonial core, Mompox is mostly a rundown and dirty village as far as we could tell. But the core is beautiful. The original buildings are also run down but in an atmospheric kind of way. There are three small plazas along the waterfront and the churches and old marketplace have been nicely restored. There are also boat tours along the river in the afternoon. Staying in one of the colonial homes rounds out the experience
August 2018 - after our trip to France we finally arrived Germany again. The last few days we still wanted to visit the WHS sites that are on the road. And there were some more than we expected.
Trier is one of the oldest cities in Germany. The WHS is a combination of the roman and medieval sites, a nomination that would propbabaly not work anymore
Again, just as with the Tower of London, I visited Bath on a school trip with a language school so had a little less freedom than I would have liked to explore Bath with its Georgian architecture and famous Roman baths.
The Circus and The Royal Crescent are the best examples of the architecture Bath has to offer, all built in the local Bath stone which is a beautiful sandy colour and makes the city very distinctive. I was surprised to learn that The Royal Crescent is actually just a facade and that the houses behind are of varying heights and sizes. There's a popular green area in front of the crescent that's very popular for picnics and photos.


Individuals nowadays are careless about how technology affects our nature even our society. Add emails, cell telephones, web surfing, and chat lines, and we start to see the pervasive facets of technology on our home lives and household milieu. Although you could not find many science peripherals accessible on the open market, there are plenty of people out their making some actually modern gadgets that can flip a cell phone into a complicated scientific instrument.
The combination of telephony, computing and media (broadcasting)technologies, and thence the combination of the businesses, markets andthe social interactions related to them. What has occurred is that there is a hue and cry that the Grand Jury system need some overhauling for his or her selections to exonerate the copes who shot and killed unarmed African People has riled lots of people.
What I'm saying is that this goes to show that Obama's legacy was not the little of what he did, but the hatred many White Americans of all persuasion had for him and how he appeared like, and what this represented of their minds: An African Slave.
There have been a few instances over the previous couple of years once I've learn a information story or a debate concerning the morality or worth of this or that new procedure or technology, and thought to myself, "Have not these individuals ever watched The Twilight Zone?
Technology is commonly thought of too narrowly; based on Hughes, "Technology is a creative course of involving human ingenuity". It's by way of the human developmental stage of pretend play and using The MovieMaking Process, that a inventive alliance and modern resolution could be discovered between the world of human wants and the age of technology.

a boy named dane. – static confusion.
i felt compelled to write about this because i've been so consumed with the scenery and my own life lesson that i failed to realize that i am surrounded by fascinating people with their own stories. for some reason dane made an impression on me. perhaps it was his genuity, his excitement to be reunited with the girl that swpt him off his feet or the simple fact that he is proof that old fasion romance still exists.
and with that, the hopeless romantic in me resurfaces. and i'm glad because i had missed her.

Sam Ricketts pre Tranmere Rovers
Sam Ricketts previews Town's Sky Bet League One clash with Tranmere Rovers.
Shrewsbury Town welcome Tranmere Rovers to the Montgomery Waters Meadow tomorrow evening for another Sky Bet League One fixture.
Salop will be targeting consecutive wins with the visit of Micky Mellon's Tranmere after a 1-0 win over Doncaster Rovers last time out.
Town Manager Sam Ricketts is expecting a tough test from the away side but feels his team have enough to secure three points against the Birkenhead outfit.
"It's a quick turnaround and we are now just seeing who will be available for the game," said Sam. "We are very light on players after injuries at the weekend.
"We aren't reading too much into the league table or thier league form. We have to identify what they are good at and pick at their strengths. They have some experienced players who can score goals but we have to impose ourselves on the game as well as we can.
"Last week was the first time we had a free week for a long, long time. The quick turnaround is something we are used to. We would always like longer for preparation and recovery but that isn't an option - we have to prepare as well as we can.
"You can't beat winning games and performing well so everyone will be ready to go again. The fans will be vital for us again like they are in every game. We need the support, the players need support and it helps the lads reach that extra yard, extra block or that extra pass.
"We have a number of players who are out from the weekend and won't be available. There isn't anything we can do about it, we have to just get ready for the game."
Shrewsbury Town vs Tranmere Rovers on 25 Feb 20

What Is Chernobyl's Red Forest?
Sherbak_photo/Shutterstock
By Jean Mendoza/March 30, 2022 12:37 am EST
On April 26, 1986, a disaster struck at the nuclear power plant located in Chernobyl, Ukraine. The Chernobyl Power Complex had four nuclear reactors, and on April 25, crew members started preparing for tests to determine how long turbines would continue to spin after losing electrical power. According to the World Nuclear Association, a series of actions was done before the test, and by the time testing was scheduled to take place, the nuclear reactor was unstable. Still, the test proceeded; the immediate power surge caused a devastating explosion that left the nuclear core exposed, spreading radioactive materials into the air as a result.
Emergency personnel immediately descended on the scene to control the blaze. Sand and other materials were dumped on the affected areas to contain contamination. Per National Geographic, the catastrophic incident wasn't officially announced until April 28. About 335,000 people from nearby towns were evacuated, and a 19-mile-wide exclusion zone was established around the site of the explosion.
The effects of the explosion

The nuclear reactor explosion left two people dead immediately after, while 29 more died three months after the accident due to acute radiation sickness, as reported by Time. Hundreds more were treated for acute radiation syndrome — also called radiation toxicity — which occurs after exposure to a large dose of radiation in a short period of time (via Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). About 50 more people died of radiation toxicity, and those who survived — about 4,000 people — may die due to radiation exposure-related illnesses in the future.
Decades after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, some people who were evacuated from the site are still reeling from the effects of radiation exposure. A study published in the Journal of Immigrant and Minority Health found that those who were exposed to radiation had more frequent hospital visits for eye conditions, endocrine issues, circulatory issues, and neoplasms or abnormal tissue growths in the body, per Israel21c. The number of thyroid cancer patients increased after the nuclear accident, and a majority of those affected were children and adolescents who lived in close proximity to the power plant.

The Chernobyl nuclear disaster also left a lasting mark on the environment. One of the areas that had the most damage from the spread of the radiation into the atmosphere was the pine forest located west of the Chernobyl Power Complex. The forest — spanning about 400 hectares — was exposed to high doses of radiation that the effects were immediate. According to Chernobyl X, the majority of the trees in the forest died and turned a rusty red-orange color, and the area has been called the Red Forest since.
A study conducted on the Red Forest showed that the trees exposed to radiation — although dead — did not appear to be decaying even decades after the explosion, as reported by Smithsonian Magazine. Experiments were conducted, and based on the results, microbes and fungi — organisms that are important in the decomposition process — also remain contaminated, which hinders the process of decomposition. The Red Forest remains littered with dead trees and leaves and is one of the most radioactive places in Chernobyl.
Efforts to clean the Red Forest

Following the Chernobyl nuclear accident, clean-up operations immediately began. Workers who cleaned up powerplant and the surrounding areas that were contaminated were called liquidators, which included firefighters, emergency response personnel, members of the military, and non-professionals, according to The Chernobyl Gallery. The dangers that came with the task were mostly unknown to the team, but as one liquidator said, "somebody had to do it." It is estimated that at least 300,000 liquidators worked on the site, but it's possible that as many as 800,000 worked on cleaning up the area throughout the years.
The liquidators dedicated to the clean-up of the Red Forest had to bulldoze the trees that were contaminated. The trees and debris were then buried in trenches that were 2 to 3 meters deep and then covered with sand, per Chernobyl X. Shrubs and tree saplings were planted on top to prevent the sand from moving. Despite the clean-up efforts, many dead trees and leaves still remained on the site.
Disturbances in the Red Forest
Elena Sherengovskaya/Shutterstock
In 2015, a forest fire set the Red Forest ablaze for days. The dead trees and litter of dead leaves quickly caught fire and 200 firefighters fled to the scene to control and stop the fire that spread to 12 miles from the powerplant, according to the BBC. The fire lasted for four days, but apart from the destruction, what was more concerning was the fact that the fire disturbed the land and sent radioactive particles into the atmosphere. Nuclear experts measured the presence of radioactive elements after the fire was put out and found that the level was 10 times worse than the typical readings (via Radio Free Europe).
In 2022, there was a reported disturbance in the Red Forest when Russian soldiers — amidst the Russia-Ukraine war — drove through the forest in their armored vehicles. According to witnesses, per Reuters, the soldiers were not wearing protective gear when they drove through the zone. The presence of military vehicles in the exclusion zone also greatly disturbed the ground, which resulted in higher radiation levels in the air.
A tour of Chernobyl

Chernobyl has been abandoned since the nuclear reactor accident in 1986, but the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone was opened to tourists in 2011. Visitors are able to visit various places including abandoned villages and memorials, as reported by Smithsonian Magazine. The New Safe Confinement dome was built to cover the reactor building where the explosion took place, which makes visiting Chernobyl safe enough for guided tours. In certain areas, tourists are required to wear radioactive protection gear and are given a limited amount of time to explore. Radiology tests are also done on-site to measure exposure to radiation.
Visitors are also allowed to see the Red Forest during tours. However, no one is allowed to enter the forest. Tourists can only view the forest from the perimeter where it is safe to observe. Per Chernobyl Tours, high levels of radiation are only present in areas close to the explosion site, and tourists are only brought to safe locations through a designated route.

Two HP TouchPads with Android surface, one on eBay
Separate owners claim the tablets came with the Android OS installed instead of the expected webOS
Melanie Pinola (PC World (US online)) 26 August, 2011 07:09
Everyone who's been grabbing the $99 and $149 HP TouchPads in the recent fire sale might not be stuck with HP's webOS.
Two TouchPads recently purchased appear to run the Android OS. Owners of these oddball TouchPads claim to have bought their tablets shipped with the Android OS already preloaded.
Photos purporting to be of one of these Android HP TouchPads are now on eBay and show the discontinued HP tablet running Android version 2.2.1. As of 2 p.m. EDT, the current bid for purchase of the tablet was $810, with 16 bidders participating. That's expensive for an Android tablet, especially for one that would cost you $149 without Android -- if you could find one. However, the Android build is a rarity.
The owner of the other Android TouchPad performed a system dump of the tablet and shared the software with the coders at RootzWiki. The race is on to see if they can break the code to find out how to port the Android operating system to all the other (attractively priced) TouchPads.

Q: Linux Fedora 20: how do I deal with " import read failed(2)"? I have been struggling to get yum to work when trying to install emacs in my recent installation of Fedora 20, and posted the question, on this site. "How can I get yum and the internet browser to work after fresh Fedora 20 installation", which inspired several useful answers (many thanks to the kind posters),  but none of them, unfortunately, solved it. I don't expect any more to come from that question, but I have tried an approach that might work, but it still fails with the error in this question.
I came across the suggestion
[root@localhost Harry]# setenforce 0
[root@localhost Harry]# yum clean expire-cache
[root@localhost Harry]# yum update selinux-policy\*
[root@localhost Harry]# setenforce 1

And tried it out, not getting very far:

and so it went on for ages, the same error, [Errno 14] curl#6 - "Could not resolve host: www.mirrorservice.org" I get whenever I try to use yum.

You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing.
However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download
the keys for packages you wish to install and install them.
You can do that by running the command:
    rpm --import public.gpg.key

Alternatively you can specify the url to the key you would like to use
for a repository in the 'gpgkey' option in a repository section and yum
will install it for you.

For more information contact your distribution or package provider.

Problem repository: download.fedoraproject.org_pub_fedora_linux_updates_testing_20_i386_

But again a failure, I get it whenever I try import:
[root@localhost Harry]# rpm --import public.gpg.key
error: public.gpg.key: import read failed(2).

So my question is: is this is a useful approach, and, if so, how do I get round the import failed(2) error?
In answer to Leiaz's comment, thank you, this is what I get from ifconfig. It's a wired connection to a BT Homehub 3 router, May I add that I have no problem with the internet in Windows XP installed on the same dual boot machine, nor on the two laptops with a wireless connection to the same router. I also have no trouble with the Firefox browser in this Linux, which is the one with the yum trouble, and the one I am using to post this question: in fact it is faster than the one on my laptop.

Having no idea how to deal with ipv6, and unable to find the answer on the Internet, I thought I would try a different Linux, so I have installed openSUSE, but it appears to have the same problem. As with Fedora, I am using Firefox from within Linux, to post this, and the 'net is fully working in the other windows partition.
Please, please can someone help me to solve this, I am completely stumped. Without emacs and a C compiler, well Linux is no longer any use to me, after happily using it for more than ten years.
Here is the relevant openSUSE result:
harry@linux-18x3:~> gcc
If 'gcc' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this:
    cnf gcc
harry@linux-18x3:~> cnf gcc

The program 'gcc' can be found in following packages:
  * gcc [ path: /usr/bin/gcc, repository: zypp (openSUSE-13.1-1.10) ]
  * gcc [ path: /usr/bin/gcc, repository: zypp (repo-oss) ]

Try installing with:
    sudo zypper install gcc

harry@linux-18x3:~> sudo zypper install gcc
root's password:
Download (curl) error for 'http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/13.1/repo/non-oss/content':
Error code: Connection failed
Error message: Could not resolve host: download.opensuse.org

Abort, retry, ignore? [a/r/i/? shows all options] (a):

A: At last, after almost six weeks of frustrated, numerous, attempted solutions based on suggestions by kind friends and Internet question sites, I have solved the problem (I think -- I am cautiously optimistic). The underlying symptom was that yum install emacs failed with a long list of errors,. Now it has finally worked, without hesitation. I don't know why, finding out is my next quest.
This is what I followed:

Resolved this by adding nameserver 8.8.8.8 above my router's address in resolv.conf that was obtained by DHCP.
Not quite sure why it will not work with the automatic DHCP settings.
Thanks.

Mexico Gas Hike Looting, Blockades Leave 3 Dead, 250 Arrested
Edited by Pavel Jacomino
Mexico City, January 6 (RHC)-- The wave of looting and blockades over a double-digit hike in gasoline prices in Mexico has left at least three dead and 250 people arrested as protests continue across the country.
At least 23 stores were ransacked and 27 blockades put up in Mexico City alone, officials said, while the retailers' association Antad has urged authorities to intervene quickly, saying 79 stores had been looted and 170 forcibly closed due to blockades.
In a failed attempt to calm the widespread anger, President Enrique Peña Nieto told Mexicans that he shared their pain over the fuel price hike that went into effect Sunday, claiming that the alternative would have been even greater costs and more suffering for the country.
Still, Peña Nieto has promised that fuel prices would eventually decrease due to his 2014 energy reform that ended nearly seven decades of sovereign control over energy resources by the state-run oil company Pemex, breaking up its monopoly.
Protesters argue that the government's decision to raise fuel prices by up to 20 percent has no justification in an oil-rich country. However, the government insists that the move is in line with international prices and is not a result of the government's neo-liberal reforms.
Meanwhile, Pemex has denounced blockades on roads that give access to fuel storage terminals and has warned that if the situation continues, it could trigger a crisis of shortages and aggravate the problem.
Pemex also asked angry citizens to avoid any further violent actions, which have already damaged stations and harmed pipeline workers in recent days. Dozens of terminals across the country have decided to cease operations in fear of possible risks presented by the unfolding movement.
Some have speculated that the looting and vandalism has been led by allegedly "infiltrated" groups, in a move that staunch critics of Peña Nieto's administration claim is intended to create chaos in the country and undermine social protest, setting the basis for the targeting of activists as criminals.
Analysts have warned that if the fuel price increases, which affect both gasoline and diesel, could severely impact the cost of food, transportation and other goods and services.

Whole nation will applaud the NHS at 8pm tonight
The Clap For Carers campaign, which started online, is being staged because "during these unprecedented times they need to know we are grateful"
A national salute is set to take place to honour the hardworking NHS staff who are trying to battle coronavirus.
In a gesture of thanks to the frontline healthcare heroes, everyone across the nation has been invited to join a a mass round of applause from their doorsteps, windows and balconies on Thursday at 8pm.
The Clap For Carers campaign, which started online, is being staged because "during these unprecedented times they need to know we are grateful", according to the organisers.
The Wembley Arch, the Principality Stadium, the Royal Albert Hall and Lincoln Cathedral are said to be among some of the landmarks which are set to be lit up in blue during the salute.
Package to help self-employed will be announced today
More than 500,000 volunteer to help NHS in just 24 hours
It is part of the #lightitblue campaign which has been organised by members of the events and entertainment industry as a way to say thank you.
Chris Moyles and Kate Garraway are among the presenters who have said they are backing the event.
Radio X presenter Moyles rallied his listeners to "make some noise for the thousands and thousands of people (in the NHS) that we'll probably never meet, just to say 'thank you' for everything they are doing for us" with a powerful message.
Gary White and Chuck Crampton, who jointly started the #lightitblue campaign, said that all venues will use existing LED technology to create a flash of blue on facades and screens.
You will be able to ask WhatsApp for coronavirus advice
Free parking for all NHS staff during coronavirus outbreak
It means that people at different venues will be able to show their support while staying at home in line with current Government advice during the pandemic.
In a statement, they said: "The events and entertainment industry finds itself in an unprecedented state of enforced inaction.
"The best thing we can do – apart from staying at home – is to use our skills and networks to say thank you to everyone who is supporting the NHS and risking their own health to help others during this pandemic."

Finnester Coatings is a pioneer in developing high-quality coatings to solve problems in different fields of industries. Our innovative, cutting-edge technologies are based on a know-how accumulated over a number of years as well as on our groundbreaking ideas about chemistry.
With our technologies, we have taken up many previously unsolved challenges in composite industry, increased fire safety in many industries and created entirely new opportunities for construction.
Finnester Coatings is a family business founded almost two decades ago by brothers Hokkanen, Ari and Mika. Ari followed his father into the world of polymer chemistry and graduated as M.Sc.Eng in chemistry. Years at Neste Polyester revealed many of the challenges in composite industry. Ari believed he could solve many problems in composite industry by developing new types of coating products. Finnester Coatings was founded for this purpose. The paint and coating market had been unchanging for a long period of time and many products were still based on technologies from the 60' and 70's.
Coming into the new millenium, Finnester Coatings, led by Ari Hokkanen, was in close development cooperation with Finnish composite manufacturers. Durester, a whole family of tooling and coating products was born. This line of products brought along significant savings in time and money for composite manufacturers. As a result of the development work, a surface finished with Durester coatings was smoother and cured faster than the competition. This led to significantly reduced finishing work. Hokkanen and his team moved from molds and plugs into developing coatings for ready-made composite objects and PURE family of coatings was born.
In recent years, the pace of innovation has accelerated. For manufacturing and finishing epoxy-based composites, a new generation epoxy, DERA, and polyurea-based PHERON were developed. Both have groundbreaking qualities. DERA is an epoxy without the characteristic brittleness. PHERON is a new generation polyurea allowing the processing time to be extended up to an hour, even in freezing temperatures. These new technologies entailed new opportunities for coating different construction materials, such as sandblasted iron and timber.
HYBRID technology enabling a compound of ceramic material and organic adhesives. The first ceramic coating in the world, which does not need extreme heat for curing. It cures in room temperature. This has enabled totally new applications for ceramic coatings. Decotile ceramic coating for renovating tiled surfaces without demolition work has started to conquer the world.
A fire retardant technology based on ceramifying polymers. HybridRED, a fire retardant coating, outdoes every competitor globally due to its' unique qualities. It is the only decorative coating for the external body shell of passenger rolling stock, compliant with the requirements of the standard EN45545-2 (EX1A, R7, HL3), but not compromising on mechanical strength or weatherability.

Gestational diabetes screening should take place at 24 weeks
All pregnant women should be screened for gestational diabetes mellitus at 24 weeks gestation, even if they have no symptoms, according to new recommendations from the USPSTF.
All pregnant women should be screened for gestational diabetes mellitus at 24 weeks gestation, even if they have no symptoms, according to new recommendations from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF).
The B-level recommendation from USPSTF, published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, aligns with other medical organizations, including the American Society of Clinical Endocrinologists, the American Diabetes Association, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
Increased risk
Gestational diabetes, which occurs in 1% to 25% of pregnancies, puts women at increased risk for maternal and fetal complications, such as preeclampsia, fetal macrosomia, and neonatal hypoglycemia. Women diagnosed with gestational diabetes are at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes, which may occur 5 to 15 years following delivery, according to the USPSTF.
"Many practices have been instituting these recommendations, but it's wonderful to have received a B-level recommendation from the USPSTF," said Michelle Hilaire, PharmD, clinical pharmacist at the Fort Collins Family Medicine Center, a service of University of Colorado Health, in Fort Collins, Colo.
"The earlier that we can diagnose and begin treating women with gestational diabetes, we can reduce maternal and fetal complications," said Dr Hilaire. "Testing between 24 to 28 weeks allows us to help women make smarter choices throughout their pregnancy. This will most likely lead to less complications during delivery."
As many as one in five women may develop gestational diabetes, but, traditional testing strategies only identify about 25% of the cases. Women who go undiagnosed are at an increased risk of having an overly large baby, which can complicate delivery.
The Endocrine Society is encouraged by USPSTF's efforts to promote gestational diabetes screening and recommends going a step further to identify undiagnosed type 2 diabetes cases before harmful pregnancy complications can develop.
The Society also recommends universal diabetes testing for women at the first prenatal visit in its Diabetes and Pregnancy Clinical Practice Guideline that was published in the November 2013 issue of the Society's Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism. The test should be done before 13 weeks' gestation or as soon as possible thereafter.
"Given that many cases of type 2 diabetes are undiagnosed, it's important to ascertain early in pregnancy whether women have this condition," said Ian Blumer, MD, of the Charles H. Best Diabetes Centre in Whitby, Ontario, Canada, and chair of the taskforce that authored the guideline. "Untreated diabetes poses serious risks to the mother and the fetus, so it is important to reduce the chance of complications through early diagnosis and treatment."
Recommended test
When pregnant women are screened for gestational diabetes at 24 to 28 weeks gestation, the Endocrine Society recommends using a one-step testing approach in line with the consensus panel of the International Association of the Diabetes and Pregnancy Study Groups' protocol. This involves pregnant women taking a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test, which is more sensitive and can help physicians diagnose more cases. This differs from the 50-g oral glucose challenge test, which is commonly used in the United States. As the USPSTF noted in its statement, many pregnant women receive this test and are only given the oral glucose tolerance test if the first test yields abnormal results.
Women diagnosed with gestational diabetes should be initially counseled about moderate physical activity, dietary changes, glucose monitoring, and support from a diabetes educator and nutritionist. If these interventions are insufficient for management of glucose, insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents should be prescribed. Increased surveillance of prenatal care is warranted, according to the USPSTF.

Worth? What is it Worth?
As an introvert, I completely understand the terror surrounding a visit to a new place. But we want to make your visit to the Lawrenceburg Seventh-day Adventist Church as easy as possible!
How long is a typical worship service?
In total, our worship service is about an hour and a half in length. Services begin with announcements and exciting updates about ways our members are involved in the church and the community, then we sing a few songs. We still use old fashioned hymnals, but don't worry! We'll announce the page numbers from the front and someone will be more than happy to help you find the song if you get stuck. Between several prayers and musical selections, there are a couple of offerings taken up. If you'd like to participate, make sure you have some cash on hand. Each week the offering goes towards something different, but that'll be announced as well. And don't feel like you have to give just because there's the opportunity! In the last forty minutes of our service, the pastor or one of our local leaders will share an encouraging and hope-filled message about Jesus.
What's the culture like at the Lawrenceburg SDA Church?
People describe our church as being relaxed and friendly. Come as you are and expect to feel welcomed as our guest.
We believe that kids should have a blast at church every single week - and at the Lawrenceburg church, we make this a priority. During the Bible study time, we have special classes for kids and during the worship service there are opportunities for them to engage in times set aside specifically for them.
Ready to check out our church? We can't wait to welcome you in person. Simply fill out the form below and we'll make sure to give you the VIP treatment upon your first visit.
How many kids are you bringing?
Would you like the pastor to personally reach out to you ahead of your first visit?

As I stated in Part 1, I chose this title as an attention getter but don't really like it because of its negative connotation.
I believe that the prisoner-of-war camp in Amherst was by and large a benign, maybe even beneficial experience. The prisoners caused hardly any trouble and they were put to work and brought about all kinds of improvements such as at Dickey Park and at the Nappan Experimental Farm.
Also, there was a lot of talent and creativity among the young men held captive, with many examples of their products still in the community.
In any event, our member of parliament is to be commended for arranging some events that will commemorate the 100th anniversary of the closing of the camp in 1919.
He contacted the German Embassy in Ottawa which knew nothing of this topic. They really became interested when they were told that 13 German nationals had been buried in the Amherst Cemetery and that there was a monument there with 11 names on it.
They sent a delegation to Amherst on March 26, which included three members of a German Air Force military band which happens to be coming to our province this summer as guest performers at the Nova Scotia International Tattoo.
The group first visited at the town hall where they were received by Deputy Mayor Sheila Christie. I was asked to join the group by Bill Casey in case some interpreting or other liaison needed to be done.
Actually, the group leader was fluent in English and the musicians knew some English as well. Next, we visited Ray Coulson and the Nova Scotia Highlanders Regimental Museum. The delegates were most Interested in all the exhibits, especially artifacts of German origin from the First and Second World War.
At the armouries, plans for the observances on July 2 were discussed. When we mentioned that there might be hundreds of visitors to see a display of prison artifacts and that a concert from the band would be appreciated they gradually warmed up to that idea.
In fact, after Mr. Casey agreed that an appropriate stage could be provided, they thought that maybe the whole band could come and put on a performance - that's over 40 musicians.
All of that will happen on July 2.
Among the prison treasures Coulson has in his museum are two musical instruments made by the German prisoners: a cello and a violin. It may be possible to have these two instruments fixed up a little so that they can be played as part of the concert or as a special feature - having them played for the first time in 100 years.
The Cumberland Museum on Church Street also contains many prison camp products, as well as a collection of photographs.
The group spent quite a bit of time there, getting more and more excited about being part of the July 2 events.
Next came the visit to the cemetery. There they discussed the playing of a musical tribute to the 13 soldiers who died here and were buried in individual graves with individual markers. We believe that it was in 1970 when the German War Graves commission had the remains exhumed and reburied in the Woodland cemetery in Kitchener, Ontario. A new stone was erected bearing eleven names.
It is not known why two names were omitted. We recently learned that the original grave markers were placed in the spaces from where the remains had been removed and covered over. That explains why there is a fair amount of empty space around the one monument that is there. More information about the commemoration of the 100 years since the closing of the prisoner of war internment camp will be forthcoming from Mr. Casey's office. There will be an appeal for anyone who owns or knows about a prison-made artifact to loan it to the exhibit on July 2.
A website will be established in the hope that it will reach some people in Germany and the Ukraine (and in Canada) whose ancestors spent time at that facility in Amherst.
I know from my own experience (I had two uncles, who were prisoners of war, interned in southern Alberta. They loved to talk about their experiences and they were all positive) that if anyone had a grandfather or great grandfather who served out the rest of the war in Amherst, they would know about it.
I fully expect that Bill's office will get responses from across the Atlantic, or even from people in Canada. Some of the German prisoners stayed in Canada and all of the Ukrainians, who were imprisoned here, were already residents of this country and their ancestors would know and remember that.
The actual date when the camp closed was Sept. 27, 1919. That means that the July 2 observances and events are a bit early. In September there would be no big military band available to play an enjoyable free concert in the Amherst Armouries. Surely, that makes it okay. Mark it on your calendar.

David and Bathsheba: Birth of Solomon
No Trade-off between Earned Blessing and Incurred Punishment
DOWNLOAD AUDIO DOWNLOAD PDF
Any blessing earned by a person remains effective until fulfilled at its time. Also, any incurred punishment, unless forgiven, remains effective until fulfilled at its time. Earned blessing and incurred punishment are parallel promises. There is no trade-off of one against the other.
We learn this through this week's bible study on interactions between David and Bathsheba. King David had an affair with Bathsheba, Uriah's wife, while Uriah was at the war front fighting for Israel. She became pregnant from the affair. David tried to cover up the affair, first by attempting to trick Uriah into sleeping with his wife. When he realized Uriah would not fall for the trick, David ordered that he be over-exposed at the war front so he would be killed by the enemy. The plot was successful. Uriah was killed in the battle. David married Bathsheba thereafter and she gave birth to a son from the affair. But God was not deceived.
Punishment for David
The affair and killing of Uriah in an attempt to hide it were ugly to God. He decreed severe punishment on David that was announced to him by Prophet Nathan: Calamity would be brought upon David from his household, someone close to him will sleep with his wives in broad daylight before Israel, and the son born to him through the affair would die. The third punishment came through almost immediately. The child of the affair fell ill and died within a few days. The other two also were fulfilled later but will be discussed in a future bible study.
Solomon as Blessing to David
After the child died, David went in to comfort his wife, Bathsheba. She got pregnant again and gave birth to a son that we know today as Solomon. The birth of Solomon was a blessing to David. Because Christ was born out of Solomon's lineage [Matthew 1:1–16], the birth of Solomon was a step toward God's fulfillment of his promise to Abraham: that all nations on earth will be blessed through his offspring [Genesis 22:18]. It is a blessing to David that this promise to Abraham was fulfilled through David's son, Solomon. The birth of Solomon also was a step toward fulfilling God's promise to David: to raise his offspring to succeed him and establish his kingdom [2 Samuel 7:12]. We will see in a future bible study that Solomon succeeded David as king of Israel and his kingdom was well established.
Parallel Blessing and Punishment
Therefore, while David incurred and suffered severe punishment for the illicit affair with Bathsheba and covering up the affair by setting her husband up to be killed in battle, once he became the woman's legitimate husband, their marriage resulted in the birth of Solomon, through whom God fulfilled blessings that David earned previously: blessing that he earned through his great grandfather Abraham and blessing that he earned through his own service. These blessings did not buy him out of the punishment he incurred because of the affair, nor did the punishment diminish his blessing in any way.
Acknowledge, Repent, and Ask for Forgiveness
Earned blessing is a promise from God. So is incurred punishment. God will keep his promise at his chosen time. Therefore, both earned blessing and incurred punishment can coexist for a person and be fulfilled at their time. We earn blessings through service as Christ describes in Mathew 25:31–40. Also, we can incur punishment through denial of service [Matthew 25:41–46] or through other sin such as David committed in the affair with Bathsheba. The only way to reduce or get out of incurred punishment is to acknowledge the sin, repent, and ask for forgiveness. Attempting to cover up a sin in order to avoid human consequences often will result in committing more sin as happened in David's interactions with Bathsheba. Face the human consequences and avoid making things worse by seeking a cover-up. Acknowledge, repent, and ask for forgiveness.

A scientist will let his experimental expertise convince you that his conclusions are correct. He hath brought many captives home to Rome Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill: Did this in Caesar seem ambitious? These may include such appeals as ecological appeals and nationalism. To continue the above example: The advertising for product X, appealing for enhanced personal safety, displays a preference for a state of safety. He does this through appeals to ethos. This is an example of pathos because his childhood of poverty made it hard for him to survive in the real world; as a result, his chances of using his intelligence to impact the world was slim. And that they know full well That gave me public leave to speak of him.
For instance, in an argument about financial matters, one can imagine a disputant saying, 'A fool and his money are soon parted. His patriotism and fervor were already well known, making his appeal credible. Still, the ethical rules set forth within the codes are very important. In this case, adherence to a written code of ethics is assumed to be a part of participating in the legal profession and is a responsibility on the part of each individual attorney. If they are there, it would be difficult for us in the present to recognize because Puritanical logic and ethics would be different from ours. Summary: What Does Ethos Mean in Literature? Want to know a secret that more and more skilled fishermen are finding out about? This company has a different set of ethos, a different set of ethics and priorities.
See what a rent the envious Casca made. I know that you are wise enough to enough to realize that Mr. It is clear that they remain serene and happyconsistently and rarely fall past anger in terms of emotionaloutbursts and when they do show anger it is usually righteous angerintended to improve the emotional states of others. And I think, too, that I could say that in my years of public life, that I welcome this kind of examination because people have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Two broad types of ethos are commonly recognized: and. For more information on Ricci v.
If we heavily tax cigarette sales, then we will stop smoking. For instance, the Not-for-Profit Planned Parenthood has a code of ethics for peer educators. Definition: supplies examples, facts, or reasons first, and then draws conclusions from them Example: pg. DeStefano, 2009 , see Related Questions, below. It is not simply a how-to guide to establishing one's credibility with an , but rather it is a careful study of what Athenians consider to be the qualities of a trustworthy individual.
What Is an Example of a Logical Appeal?
If it is true that the greater good looks differently on differentlevels and looks differently from different emotional viewpoints,then it is possible that the lower our level of awareness, thelower and more morose our emotions the further we get from thegreater good. Look, in this place ran Cassius' dagger through. The stories of Chris Langan and is compared and contrasted with Robert Oppenheimer. The news sent shock waves across the country. Joe Flom's road to success is being interpreted. Ethos is one of the three Aristotelian appeals. Harbin is, by far, one of the best fishermen around.
Ads that use humor want consumers to make a positive association with the product and feel that using the product is fun or enjoyable. A code of ethics is a set of principles and rules used by companies, professional organizations and individuals to govern their decision making in choosing between right and wrong. Oversimplification — The author waters down the relation between causes and effects. Organizations with an established and published code of ethics have in place review processes and appeals procedures to guard against malicious or self-serving use of the code for individual benefit. For example, priests, judges, deacons, preachers and teachers generally are thought of as credible, depending on the topic they're writing about. I am no orator, as Brutus is, But, as you know me all, a plain blunt man That love my friend. Gladwell provides background information from Chris Langan for the readers to understand his struggles.
Kotler 1997 He differentiates three different types of appeals: 1. The Purpose of Ethos in Writing Ethos is a vital aspect in an argument. Codes for Corporations and Non-Profit Organizations Corporations and non-profits have codes of ethics to assist workers in determining if certain behaviors are appropriate and acceptable in their dealings with clients and outside agencies. We should never invite Uncle Wally over for dinner because every time we do, some natural disaster occurs nearby. You ought to maximize pleasure, or happiness 4. Others encourage consumers to join the crowd, such as ads that highlight the popularity of a product. Difference Between Ethos, Pathos, and Logos Aristotle defined three main paths toward persuading an audience: ethos, pathos, and logos.
Thus he knows both sides — theory and praxis — very well. This is one of the three modes of persuasion in , as distinguished by Aristotle, the other two being and. If the United States sends ground troops into Iraq, then we will be faced with another war like Vietnam. It is clear from Aristotle's discussion in Rhetoric, however, that, overall, the three proofs work in conjunction to persuade see Grimaldi, 1972. One of the central problems of argumentation is to project an impression to the reader that you are someone worth listening to, in other words making yourself as aut … hor into an authority on the subject of the paper, as well as someone who is likable and worthy of respect. Ads that show groups of similar people, such as families at a restaurant, appeal to a sense of belonging, provoking consumers to purchase a product so they become part of a desirable group. If we can send a spacecraft to Mars, then we can discover a cure for prostate cancer among squirrels.
Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. Although Kotler makes a reference to negative emotions, I would argue, that these are turned into positive appeals in commercials. Codes for Individuals Individual codes of ethics are most commonly seen as part of the tenets of a religion but can also be considered to be those unwritten rules of behavior instilled in an individual by their upbringing and environment. In , maxims were regarded as formulaic ways of conveying the common wisdom of the people. John Smith is sure to lose out on his investment. Aristotle tells us that all three appeals are important to persuasive writing. .
Now and then, someone just gets hot, and can't be stopped. It's one of the three appeals that Aristotle identified as the most effective tools of persuasive writing or speaking. Physicians The American Medical Association also imposes a Code of Ethics on physicians. We will use values strictly when this represents a tendency to prefer certain states of affairs over others by human beings in the real world. Examples include well-known facts, academic research, medical data and statistics. Ethics guidelines have become a greater topic of public interest following recent events in the home mortgage and financial sectors that called into question whether ethics policies were actually being followed or merely given lip service while pursuing the greatest profit for the company.

It's been a day that started out with the best of intentions. A day meant for cleaning, organizing, catching up on all those unfinished projects but instead you sat down, just for a minute, to watch a little TV and relax for a moment before getting started. Unfortunately for you and your to do list you stumble across a Planet of the Apes movie marathon. You can kiss the day good bye. Not only are you not going to get any of the chores done, you will not even bother to get out of your pajamas.
A day like this is perfect for a dinner like this one. The earthy mushroom aroma of the meatloaf and the warm nutty scent of the Mac n' Cheese filling your kitchen will make you seem like a hero, like you've worked on it all day. You'll be able to get this started just as you've finished your Escape From The Planet of The Apes and be done and ready to serve in time to catch the grand finale of the Battle for the Planet of the Apes. And some of that procrastination guilt will be alleviated by the praise and thanks you'll receive upon serving this moist, savory meatloaf along side this gooey Mac n' Cheese with its golden crunchy crust.
2.	In a large bowl mix together by hand meat, spices, eggs, and breadcrumbs until a sticky texture is reached.
3.	Heat olive oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until they lose most of their liquid and are reduced by half in size.
4.	Add red wine. Simmer until alcohol smell is gone and sauce begins to thicken.
5.	Add demi, stirring until evenly dissolved.
6.	Add a pad of butter to finish sauce. Turn off heat and stir, evenly blending butter giving the sauce a shiny finish.
7.	Place meatloaf mixture in a glass bread loaf pan. Pour mushroom sauce over top.
2. Cook pasta until al dente. Strain pasta and rinse with cool water to prevent from cooking further. Toss with nutmeg, salt and pepper.
4. Place a layer of pasta in baking pan.
5. Add a layer of cheese.
6. Continue with alternating layers of pasta and cheese to the top of the baking pan ending with a layer of cheese.
7. Evenly sprinkle breadcrumbs over the top.
8. Bring half and half to a simmer in a small sauce pot.
9. Slowly whisk hot half and half into eggs just a little at a time as not to cook the eggs.
10. Pour this mixture over mac and cheese. This will hold everything together creating a casserole when baked.
11. Place mac and cheese on bottom rack of the oven to achieve a golden crunchy crust. Cook for 30-40 minutes or until top is golden.
If for some reason this doesn't all get finished tonight it can be stored easily in the refrigerator. Slice up the rest of the meat loaf and wrap each piece individually. This way it can be enjoyed as a sandwich later. It is just as good cold as it is warmed up. The mac n cheese is almost better the next day nuked in the microwave by itself or with a meatloaf sandwich.

Is Your Home In need of Water Removal?
When your home experiences water damage, you may experience a groundswell of emotions. Whether you had a fixture break, a pipe burst, or a backup of the sewer, it is important to have water removal done as quickly as possible.
Getting your house back in a livable condition might feel overwhelming, but with an action plan, you can get through the muck and restore your home effectively and efficiently. Use these tips for a successful water removal project in your home.


This winter, I couldn't get enough Christmas dinner, so we've been re-enacting it every couple of weeks. Roasted chicken is my absolute don't-mess-with tradition for this meal, and I need leftovers. In this land of plenty, free range chickens are available from many farmers, and my favourite is Maple and Ewe. Their chickens are large, like at least 6 pounds. This makes them a bit of an investment, but you can make at least three meals of one (and enjoy each immensely!) They take a couple hours to cook, and they are so flavourful that I just add salt and pepper, throw it in the oven, and back off. I roast mine at low temperature, about 300°, until it reaches about 175° in the thickest part of the breast. Then I cook a mini array of vegetables, make some gravy, and we're feasting like the Kings and Queens of Winter.
It is really worth searching out a decent bird for your family. Not only will you be supporting the local economy, you will be rewarded with unparalleled flavour for practically no effort. A larger chicken yields more meat per pound, so go ahead! Leftover cooked chicken can be made into chicken soup, added to salads and sandwiches, or incorporated into a new dish over the coming days. Maple and Ewe free-range chickens are available at Meadowbrook Meat Market and the Wolfville Farmer's Market.
Preheat the oven to 300°. Put the chicken in a metal roasting pan and rub with salt and pepper-I use lots. Roast in the middle of the oven until the thickest part of the breast reaches 175°. Let the chicken rest while you prepare vegetables or whatever. Leaving the juices behind in the pan, carefully lift the chicken onto a serving platter. I remember it being a big deal to carve the holiday bird, but we don't need this kind of fuss. Just remove the leg/thigh after the bird cools a bit (resting will make the meat juicier anyway). Then cut them in half (there is a natural divide, so this is easy). Gently pull the breast meat off and cut it into several chunky pieces.
For the gravy, take the pan the chicken cooked in and set it over a burner. It won't fit, don't worry. Turn the burner to medium and scrape the pan with a fork. Sprinkle in a few tablespoons of flour and work it into the juices and fat. Add about two cups of water and stir it up like crazy (you might switch to a whisk at this point), getting into the corners of the pan so all of the liquid gets a turn directly over the heat. Add salt to taste, and maybe a little rosemary or thyme. Continue to stir and cook while the gravy bubbles and thickens. If it's too thick, thin with a bit more water. Serve the chicken and gravy with lots of veggies. Refrigerate the leftover chicken and gravy.
Later, or the next day, completely strip the chicken carcass of meat. Put all the bones and bits of skin into a large pot and cover with water. Set over medium-low heat and cook for several hours, then strain. This is now the base of a delicious chicken vegetable soup.
Maybe you don't need a recipe for this. Maybe you do. In any case, feel free to add any vegetables you like, including whatever leftover cooked vegetables are in your fridge. I also like to add a handful of uncooked red lentils, quinoa, barley or rice just before stirring in the stock. Make sure your grain is cooked completely before removing the soup from the heat.
Your stock should have a thin layer of fat on top. Spoon a little of this off carefully and place in a large pot over medium heat (you can use olive oil if necessary). Add the onion, celery, carrot and garlic and cook for twenty minutes or so, stirring often and breathing in the amazing aromas as the vegetables caramelize slightly. Add the sweet potato, chicken stock and optional grains and bring to a near boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the sweet potato is tender. Add parsley, chopped greens and chicken and simmer until greens are tender. Season with salt and pepper.
