Firehouse Subs is reopening in Moorestown under new ownership

Firehouse Subs is reopening in Moorestown under new ownership The shop is targeted to reopen on Oct. 19 in East Gate Square shopping center Check out this story on courierpostonline.com: https://www.courierpostonline.com/story/life/2019/10/03/firehouse-subs-has-new-ownership-same-location-moorestown/3845186002/
Celeste E. Whittaker, Cherry Hill Courier-Post Published 1:33 p.m. ET Oct. 3, 2019 | Updated 9:59 a.m. ET Oct. 7, 2019
MOORESTOWN – Firehouse Subs is back.
The restaurant is reopening on Oct. 19 under new ownership in the same location it was in before it shut down more than a year ago.
It is located a 1203 Nixon Drive in the East Gate Square shopping center in between Zoes Kitchen and Boston Market, close to the Moorestown Mall.
New owner Jonnie Kinchen, a Burlington Township resident, felt the location was ideal to open a shop back up.
Kinchen grew up in Manchester Township in Ocean County near Toms River but has been in Burlington County for about 16 years.

"It's a great location," Kinchen said. "Keeping it in the same place, redoing it, a little bit different inside. We're going to have a little bit more fun here. More TVs. We're going to have NFL Sunday ticket and we're going to show the NBA games. It's going to be different than it was before.
"I'm not sure what happened with it previously, but what I do know is we're going to make sure we do things right and when they come here, they have great food, they're serviced great and they'll have a lot of fun watching all the games on the televisions."
The restaurant has five big screen televisions and some art work on the walls, including a huge custom-painted mural referencing the fire which took place at nearby Moorestown Mall in 1992.
Kinchen, who said Firehouse Subs locations are noted for their service, previously wrote software for nearly 30 years, so buying a franchise is a new venture for him and his wife.
He found out about Firehouse Subs from his mother who was at a family reunion in Georgia where there are more than 75 locations.
"I was born in Georgia in Valdosta," he said. "She was down in Savannah. She called me and said 'I'm in this place called Firehouse Subs, you ought to check this out, it's really cool and the food is great.' That's how I started researching Firehouse Subs. We went to a couple of Firehouse Subs, me and my family, and we ate everything on the menu. We sampled everything over a couple of trips. I decided the food is great. We did a little more research on the company and I said, 'this is what I'm going to buy'."
Firehouse Subs was started more than 20 years ago by brothers Robin and Chris Sorensen who grew up in a family that had fire and police service as well as entrepreneurs.
There are now more than 1,100 locations around the country. A portion of purchases at all locations goes towards the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation, which is used to provide lifesaving equipment to first responders, its web site says. Since its inception in 2005, the foundation has granted over $46 million to provide equipment, training and more.

The Moorestown store will be the eighth in the state and second in South Jersey. The other area location is at the Shoppes at West Berlin on Route 73 North in West Berlin.
"They're really just getting to the Northeast," Kinchen said. "There are about seven or eight in Pennsylvania and seven or eight in New Jersey."
Hours at the Moorestown location will be 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily. They are currently hiring.
"East Gate Square itself is a great plaza," Kinchen said. "It certainly doesn't hurt that you're next to the Moorestown Mall.
"We're trying really hard to hit that target (Oct. 19)."

KUWAIT: Former MP Ahmad Al-Qudhaibi said yesterday that by delaying the application of the anti-corruption legislation, the government has effectively promoted corruption. The government was supposed to have issued bylaws necessary for the anti-corruption law to become effective seven months ago, but it did not, the former lawmaker, who is bidding for re-election, said.
One week before the National Assembly was dissolved, Qudhaibi submitted a request to grill former justice minister Yaqoub Al-Sane for failing to issue the bylaws. The grilling was not debated because the Assembly was dissolved. Failure to implement the anti-corruption law means that former MPs, ministers and senior government bureaucrats were saved from the mandatory submission of their wealth disclosures, said Qudhaibi, adding that "there are some who are trying to protect corrupt politicians and declare them innocent".
The former lawmaker said that he had warned against holding the Assembly election before issuing the bylaws and applying the anti-corruption law, and questioned if the government wants to protect its candidates in the polls and give them funds without being blamed for interfering in election. Qudhaibi said that establishing the Anti-Corruption Authority was one of the major political reform achievements by the dissolved Assembly, but it remained lacking without it becoming effective. He said that if he gets elected, he plans to submit another grilling of the new justice minister over the same issue.
Former opposition MP and election candidate Al-Saifi Al-Saifi yesterday strongly criticized the government for revoking the citizenship of several opposition figures, saying that the government had done a great injustice to several Kuwaiti families. He said that the government had revoked the citizenships through a decision and can restore them also through a decision. Saifi said the opposition does not plan to create tensions with the government, but if it does not restore those citizenships, he vowed the opposition lawmakers will not remain silent, adding that "we will not rest until the citizenships were returned".
The former lawmaker warned over the possibility of the government rigging the election like what it did way back in 1967 or by funding some candidates. Saifi called on Kuwaiti voters to take part in the coming election in large numbers in order to ensure that the best people are elected to serve the country and citizens.
Former MP Nasser Al-Marri, running from the fifth district, said the government is looking for a flexible Assembly in a bid to pass its harsh austerity program, adding the dangers of random decisions are greater than those resulting from the fall in oil prices. He held the government responsible for the deterioration in the economic situation and said citizens should not be made to bear the results of its mistakes. He said that economic reforms should start from the government and wealthy people and not from low-income sections. Marri said that "touristic" medical treatment abroad in the past few years cost KD 1.48 billion, which is enough to build several hospitals in the country.

September 18, 2020 report
Oceanbird cargo ship relies on wind to transport autos
by Peter Grad , Tech Xplore
Credit: Wallenius Marine
The latest trend in cargo shipping has roots in a concept that's been around a while. Say, 7,000 years or so.
The technology is the wind, and the tool is the sailboat. First depicted on an unearthed painted disc in Kuwait believed to have been created around 5,000 BC, sailboats have played a key role in discovery, adventure, conflict and commerce. Would "Pirates of the Caribbean" with Johnny Depp have been as engaging if it took place on a motor boat?
Today, sailboats are used mainly for recreation. Supertankers and huge cargo carriers using cheap, dirty fuel have replaced environmentally friendly wind-powered transport as the main mode of world commerce.
But that transition came with a price. Shipping fuel emissions contribute up to 30 percent of nitrous oxides released into the atmosphere, 9 percent of sulphur oxides and 3 percent of carbon dioxide.
In response to growing concerns about global warming, the United Nations' International Maritime Organization has established a goal of slashing emissions by 40 percent by the end of this decade.
Responding to a new environmental consciousness, companies are studying greener means of transportation. Incorporating newly designed materials and computerized operations, these companies are on the cutting edge of a new age in shipping.
A Swedish company, Wallenius Marine, joined the revolution as it announced last week plans to build a sleek-looking wind-powered car and truck carrier ship that can haul 7,000 vehicles at a time. The ship, named Oceanbird, will sport five 260-foot retractable sails composed of metal and composite materials. The sails can be lowered to 66 feet to pass under bridges or accommodate changing wind conditions. Upon completion, the 650-foot-long, 130-foot-wide ship will hold the distinction of being the world's largest sailing vessel.
The Oceanbird can travel at an average speed of 10 knots. That is a bit slower than conventional vessels, but cruising with the wind means it can eliminate emissions by 90 percent.
"Our vision is to lead the way towards truly sustainable shipping," said Per Tunell, Wallenius Marine's chief operating officer, during a digital press conference last week. "Of course we want others to join us."
When asked why the company was willing to share so many details about construction of the ship, Tunell replied, "It is not a competition, but rather a direction we all need to take. By being transparent in the process, we want to inspire others to test the limit to what is possible… We need to make a change and it just can't wait anymore."
Tunell also noted that he has been asked about what some see as a contradiction: an environmentally ambitious effort at transportation that ironically will transport polluting automobiles. Tunell said, "The car industry is going through a major transition as well, and it is moving fast. I would say they are way ahead of the general shipping industry and I am convinced that cars of the future will have significantly less, or even zero emissions from their operation. Oceanbird is matching what many car manufacturers are doing perfectly."
Wallenius, working with the Swedish research institute SSPA and the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm on the Oceanbird project, built a small-scale model of the ship and will be testing it in sea waters over the next few months. A completed design should be ready by the end of next year and the first ship should be ready to sail before 2025.

Giovanni Saldarini (Cantù, 11 december 1924 – Milaan, 18 april 2011) was een Italiaans geestelijke en kardinaal van de Katholieke Kerk.

Saldarini bezocht het seminarie van Petrus de Martelaar in Venegono Inferiore en vervolgens studeerde hij aan de theologische faculteit in Milaan en aan het Pauselijk Bijbelinstituut in Rome. Hij werd op 31 december 1947 tot priester gewijd door Alfredo kardinaal Ildefonso Schuster, aartsbisschop van Milaan. Hij werd vervolgens leraar aan de aartsbisschoppelijke middelbare school in Desio. Tussen 1949 en 1952 studeerde hij verder in Rome. In 1952 werd hij hoogleraar aan het seminarie van Venegono.

In 1967 verruilde Saldarini het seminarie voor het pastoraat in het aartsbisdom Milaan. Paus Johannes Paulus II benoemde hem in 1979 tot ereprelaat. In 1982 werd hij pro-vicaris-generaal van het aartsbisdom Milaan. Een jaar later werd hij kanunnik van het kathedraal kapittel van de Dom van Milaan.

In 1983 werd Saldarini hulpbisschop van Milaan en titulair bisschop van Gaudiaba. Hij ontving zijn bisschopswijding uit handen van Carlo Maria kardinaal Martini, S.J., en Giovanni kardinaal Colombo, respectievelijk aartsbisschop en aartsbisschop-emeritus van Milaan. In 1989 werd Saldarini benoemd tot aartsbisschop-metropoliet van Turijn.

Tijdens het consistorie van 28 juni 1991 creëerde Johannes Paulus II Saldarini kardinaal. De titeldiaconie Sacro Cuore di Gesù werd - pro hac vice - zijn titelkerk. In 1999 vroeg en kreeg hij om gezondheidredenen ontslag. Hij verrichtte sindsdien pastoraal werk in Milaan.

Erika's actual birthday fell today. The main festivities had been the day before, but she did have plenty of presents to open this morning, then we went for dinner at Wahaca in the evening.
Party for Erika's 6th birthday, with a "Wacky Science" theme.
I was keen to keep up the momentum of my new found love of country walks, not just from the point of view of getting a bit of exercise and some fresh air, but I've also been finding these forays to be quite mentally uplifting. Of all my walks over the summer, and earlier this year, the South Downs has really stood out as being the most memorable and the most elevating (in both a literal and more spiritual sense). However, being the wrong side of London, and with the added difficulty of railway engineering works in that neck of the woods this weekend, meant getting there would have been a bit time consuming today, and I felt guilty about taking too much time out to do my own thing.
Having recently been prompted by Garry Hogg's And Far Away to take a look at some geological maps of the UK, it struck me how on some level the North Downs ought to offer some roughly similar kind of terrain, and given the high speed rail link between St Pancras and Ashford ought to be a bit more accessible.
So today I planned a walk from Sandling to Wye, both stations a short hop from Ashford. The start of the walk was on the Saxon Shore Way, then a mile or two in joining the North Downs Way for the remainder (route here in case you're interested) - apparently about 20km or 12ish miles.
It was overall a pleasant enough walk, but somehow the North Downs - or at least this stretch of it - lacked the sense of adventure and surprising feeling of remoteness of the South Downs. It may of course have partly been down to the weather - most of my walk along the South Downs had been in searing heat, beneath a brilliant blue sky, whereas today was for the large part overcast... but the landscape here in Kent doesn't give quite the same illusion of having been untouched by man - the signs of modern civilisation were never as well hidden today as they had been on that walk in July, and although I was often treated to sprawling views today somehow they never had quite the same sense of drama.
I stopped for lunch at the Tiger Inn in Stowting. Although I have no particular complaints about the food and drink (other than something a bit more traditional would have been nice), the interior does seem to have been blighted with whatever you call that shade of murky green so ubiquitous in pubs of a gastro inclination. I hope society as a whole will look back on this era with the same disdain people eventually came to see the beiges of the 1970s and wonder what were they thinking?
After lunch the walk got a bit boring in places. I had thought looking at the map that by doing the walk this way round I was saving some of the best bits until last, what with the Wye Nature Reserve in the last hour or so. Somehow though that final section turned into a bit of a trudge - maybe the weather - or maybe I was just getting tired and the novelty was wearing off.
I got to Wye just after 3pm. I had originally considered an end-of-walk pint in the Tickled Trout in Wye, but by the time I got there it was only a few minutes until the next train back to Ashford, and I decided instead I should just head back to London so I could resume parenting duties. Erika had been at a friend's birthday party in the afternoon, and I thought if I headed back at this point I'd be back home not long after she got back.
Had a vegan pizza at lunch, and made a vegan steak hache in the evening.
Picked the first apple of the season from our apple tree this evening. Very nice it was too (although perhaps still a tad sharp).
Experimented with the L'Orangerie Liqeur I bought in Monaco, and received a new (old) Garry Hogg book - The English Country Inn.
Another al fresco breakfast at our hotel before leaving Monaco in style - by helicopter - then the somewhat less exciting flight on a boring old aeroplane back from Nice airport to London.
Started the day with an al fresco breakfast at our hotel, then went for a morning wander around Monaco, taking in the Japanese Gardens and another trip on the Bateau Bus. Lunch at the excellent pasta place in La Condamine market. After lunch visited L'Orangerie de Monaco and the National Museum before heading back to the hotel to lounge around by the beach and pool for the rest of the afternoon. In the evening we went to Il Terrazzino for dinner, where Chie and I had been on one of our first trips to Monaco, and were presented with a terrifying amount of food.
Spent the first bit of the morning in Vence before getting a taxi to Monaco. Spent some of the afternoon swimming at the hotel's beach and swimming pools and then I went for a late afternoon wander around, taking in the Bateau Bus and the Brasserie de Monaco, while the girls did more lounging at the hotel. In the evening went for dinner at our usual pizzeria on the beach.
Got a taxi to Vence in the morning. Th weather just about held out long enough for us to have a wander round the town and an al fresco lunch, but from 3pm the rain started and it absolutely poured down! Just about managed a foray out to the supermarket in what was left of the afternoon. The rain eventually subsided in the early evening and we managed to get out for dinner, and had a very nice meal at what seemed to be the only Provencal restaurant in the town.
Flew from Gatwick to Nice in the afternoon, and stayed for our first nice in a hotel near Nice airport.
Brief drink with Tim in the pub next to Euston station as he was working in London today.
Had Erika's room redecorated today after the soundproofing work. In the evening tried the new 50 Kalo for dinner.
The usual check on the apples and grapes in the garden.
Didn't do much with the day off - mostly stayed close to home, frequented the local playgrounds and briefly popped into the Pineapple.
Dim sum for lunch, then attempted to make the best of the afternoon despite the rain.

Focus Headline of the Week: Making students aware of cross-cutting concepts helps make sense of the world, across many different areas of Science.
Science is full of ideas that span more than just a single topic. Take the idea of cycles, for example. There are cycles in the cell that break down food and give you energy. There are cycles in how the moon, sun, stars, and planets move. There are cycles in how energy travels through ecosystems. The NGSS standards refer to these types of ideas that span more than one area "Cross-Cutting Concepts" (CCCs). Other examples of CCCs include "Structure and Function" and "Cause and Effect." Making students aware of these ideas when they come up helps students make sense of the world. Below is an example of how Emily P made one CCC clear for her students.
Emily's students were going to struggle a bit to interpret a graph about how temperatures change over the seasons. She knew this. Just looking at the graph on the left, you might think temperatures go up, then go down. End of story.
But no! It's a cycle! So, Emily made a chart (to the right) to help students make the connection that seasons are a cycle that repeat year after year. During the discussion, she asked the right questions, getting students to recognize the pattern as a cycle.
When it came time to write about the graph, students nailed it (see example on the left). They consistently described not just how the temperature changed over the year, but the fact that this is a pattern, a cycle, that repeats every year. Job well done.
To help students make connections to Scientific ideas across topics, check out this great resource: sentence stems and question prompts for each major cross-cutting concept in Science.

THE BEST CLAM CHOWDER — This hearty, creamy chowder is loaded with clams, potatoes, green peppers, celery and seasoning. The secret is the baked roux, which makes this classic chowder extra thick and delicious.
Years ago, a good friend gave me this recipe for The Best Clam Chowder. It's a copycat of the clam chowder served at a popular restaurant in Salt Lake City, Utah called Market Street Grill. I've never found a clam chowder recipe that beats this one!
The first, and most unique thing you'll notice about this recipe is that the roux is baked in the oven. I'd never seen anything like it before, but it's actually brilliant.
I love that I can prepare the other parts of this soup while the butter and flour are baking and browning in the oven. And when you add the baked roux to the soup, it gets super thick, super fast!
Then you add half and half or milk until your chowder is the consistency you like it. If you love a really thick clam chowder, just add less milk. If you like your chowder on the thinner side, add more.
Besides being delicious thick and rich, this clam chowder is loaded with flavor, thanks to sauteed leeks, peppers, celery and onion. And the perfect combination of herbs and spices. Plus a splash of Tabasco sauce, of course.
We actually like to serve some Tabasco sauce on the side too, for those who like to add a little spice to their chowder. And don't forget the Saltines or oyster crackers. Well, at least my kids won't let me forget that!
Living in a landlocked state like Colorado, it's not easy to get a really great clam chowder, so I love having a recipe that lets me recreate a restaurant quality seafood chowder at home.
If you've been searching for the perfect clam chowder recipe, look no further. This truly is the best clam chowder I've ever had!
Be sure to save this recipe for The Best Clam Chowder to your favorite Pinterest board for later.
This hearty, creamy chowder is loaded with clams, potatoes, green peppers, celery and seasoning. The secret is the baked roux, which makes this classic chowder extra thick and delicious.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Stir together 3/4 melted butter and flour in a baking dish until smooth. Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, add remaining butter to a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the celery, onion, green peppers and leeks and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and clams to the pot, along with enough broth to cover everything. Stir in salt, pepper, thyme and bay leaves.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat simmer until potatoes are just tender, about 15 minutes. Gradually stir in the baked flour and butter mixture until chowder is very thick. Remove and discard bay leaves, then remove soup from heat and gradually stir in milk or Half and Half to reach desired consistency. Stir in Tabasco sauce and additional salt and pepper before serving, if needed.
Who Dished It Up First: My friend Mishi shared this recipe with me nearly 15 years ago!
I made this clam chowder last night and it was absolutely phenomenal! Thank you so much for sharing it!

Q: GPO Mapped Drive Issues on Windows 10 Clients We are running Windows SBS 2011 as our file server and AD, a 2008 R2 server that is sharing files, and a 2012 R2 terminal server. I have a GPO that maps network drives to users based on security roles in AD. Most of the drives are mapping shares on the SBS2011, but one is mapping a share on the 2008R2. They have always worked fine when everyone was on Windows 7. We recently upgraded (almost) all workstations to Windows 10 v1511.
On a few of the workstations we are experiencing issues with the mapped drives. Issues include:

*

*On startup all drives from the SBS2011 are shown but all have a red X. Simply opening the drive reconnects it and it works fine. Drive from 2008R2 is fine.

*On startup all drives from the SBS2011 are shown but all have a red X. Trying to open the drive gives an error. Drive from 2008R2 is fine.

*While the machine has been running for a while and the user has a document open from one of the SBS2011 drives (Word Doc, Adobe InDesign Doc, etc.) or is running an app from the SBS2011 drives, the drive drops connection and the open program (Word, Indesign, etc.) or network app crashes. The Drive from 2008R2 does not have issues.

To add confusion:

*

*The above issues occur only on 3 machines (so far) out of 18.

*They do not happen consistently; a machine that has these issues one day may be fine for a couple of days and then have more issues.

*That single mapped drive on the 2008r2 NEVER has issues. Even when all of the other drives are experiencing the issues above, this drive always works. So it also appears to only be the shares from the SBS2011 server.

*The user does not experience these issues when using the 2012r2 terminal server. All drives work properly.

The GPOs that I'm using to map network drives are set to "Replace", "Reconnect" is enabled, each on is assigned a specific drive letter (not "Use First Available"). I had read a suggestion that I should disable the "Reconnect" option, and that is what I will try next, but the reconnect option is enabled on that one drive that always works, so I don't think this is the issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers!

A: This behaviour is, annoyingly, by design.  If you have the GPO set to 'replace' the background GPO update will periodically delete and re-add your shares even if the user is still using them.
We have spend countless hours on support queries, replaced network cards, software and even entire switches.. Simply because this effect wasn't documented anywhere.  I hate to think of the total cost to the business.
Apparently this is a change introduced with windows 8.1 which is why many sites still recommend replace as a useable option.

A: I recently had a problem similar to this and ended up working with 3rd level Microsoft support. There was a conflict between the SMB driver and the AV software installed on the server. You can do what Microsoft told us to do (do not do this unless you know what you are doing and are willing to accept the risk) and uninstall your AV software on one workstation and the server (restart both) and see if the problem goes away. If it does change AV software or upgrade to the newest version of the current AV software.
If that does not fix the problem, you can change "Update" to "Replace" in the GPO. Replace will get rid of the existing mappings but Update just makes changes (no changes are made unless it is necessary).

How Many Sides Does a Pentagon Have
Dec 27, 2019 To say the truth, not everybody knows much about geometry. So it can be difficult for many people to give the right answer to rather a simple question, "How many sides does a pentagon1 have?" The word "pentagon" is of Greek origin, and its prefix "penta" (from Greek "pente") means "five". If you know this, you can easily answer how many sides there are in a pentagon.
A pentagon3 has five sides
If it is a regular pentagon, all its sides are of equal length. The angles of every pentagon amount to 5400. In a regular pentagon, each angle measures 1080.
Both shapes on the picture below are pentagons. The first one is regular.
Different Polygons
There are also other polygons2 with various numbers of sides, and the following table will give you some information about them.
Name of Polygon
Number of Sides
Quadrilateral
Heptagon
Nonagon
Decagon
Hendecagon
Dodecagon
Tridecagon
Tetradecagon
Pentadecagon
Hexadecagon
Heptadecagon
Octadecagon
Nonadecagon
Icosagon
Triacontagon
Tetracontagon
Pentacontagon
All regular polygons have equal sides and equal internal angles. Nature has many examples of such polygons. The most widely-known of them are wax honeycombs in the form of hexagon which bees make for storing honey.
The Department of Defense of the United States of America is headquartered in the building called the Pentagon. Its name is so popular that people use it meaning the Department of Defense. It is not difficult to guess that the building has the shape of a pentagon.
It was designed by George Bergstrom, the American architect, and John McShain became the general contractor. The Pentagon was dedicated on the 15th of January, 1943.
Now the Pentagon, situated in Arlington County, Virginia, is the largest office building in the world. Its floor area is about 604 000 square meters, and about 344 000 square meters are used for offices. More than 25 000 employees work in the Pentagon. The vast majority of them are the military, though there are also civilian workers and support personnel.
The building of the Pentagon has five floors and two basement levels. Every floor has five corridors. The total length of the corridors adds up to 28.2 kilometers. The central plaza also has the shape of a pentagon. Its area is equal to approximately 20 000 square meters. The plaza is informally called "ground zero". This nickname came into being in the times of the Cold War. It was supposed that in a possible nuclear war the USSR would target a nuclear missile at the plaza.
It is interesting that the Pentagon's groundbreaking was on September 11, 1941, and exactly sixty years later the hijacked airplane was crashed into its territory. This act of terrorism killed 189 people: 59 persons aboard, 125 employees, and 5 hijackers.
If you ever forget how many sides a pentagon has, just try and remember what the Pentagon looks like. It will be a good tip for you.
A pentagon (from Greek word "pente", which means "five") is a five-sided polygon. A self-intersecting form of a pentagon is a pentagram.
A polygon (from Greek words "polus", which means "many", and "gonia", which means "angle") is a two-dimensional shape, made of several straight lines, which are all connected up.
The Pentagon is the building where the headquarters of the Department of Defense of the United States of America is located. This name is widely used for denoting the Department.

Seaside Police Department Replaces Old Ford Crown Vics With Teslas
This California police department now has a fleet comprised of... two Tesla Model Ys.
Apr 23, 2021 at 8:43am ET
By: Andrei Nedelea
Are electric vehicle suitable for law enforcement duty? Some police departments think so and they are replacing their aging gas-burning sedans with clean battery-electric vehicles in an effort to reduce their carbon footprint. One such example is in Seaside, California, where the local police department has ditched two of its old Ford Crown Victoria cruisers for a pair of brand new Tesla Model Ys.
During a Seaside City Council meeting back in February, it was noted that vehicles in the police department's fleet only drove an average of just 26 miles per day (this means even much lower-range EVs would have still been fine for the job), which prompted the local chief of police, Adbul Pridgen, to say that
There aren't very many departments that are deploying electric vehicles and we wanted to be at the forefront of the movement to be more environmentally conscious.
They will be spending a total of $354,000 on the two Teslas, as well as three hybrid Ford models (we are not told what model they are). The pair of Model Ys probably accounts for a little over $100,000 of that entire sum, which comes from the department's supplemental law enforcement and asset forfeiture monies.
But buying Teslas for police duty isn't always as easy as in Seaside. In Spokane, Washington, the local city council didn't want to buy Teslas when the time came to replace some of its older cop cars, but they eventually did, after insisting that hybrids would be better suited for the role. Another example comes from Ipswich, Massachusetts, where one Model Y was purchased with up to $15,000 off the list price thanks to local incentives and green vehicle grants.

There is no airport in Salamanca. The closest international airport is Madrid Barajas. Public transport from Madrid's bus or train station will take you to Salamanca in about 2.5 hours.
Regional rail arrives at Paseo del Estación, about a 15-minute walk from the historic center.
Various bus companies operate out of the station on Avda. de Filiberto Villalobos, also just 15 minutes walking from the Plaza Mayor. National travel by bus is cheaper than train, and there are more direct routes to Spanish and Portuguese destinations.

The Lost panel take the stage in Comic-Con '06 for a Q&A session with fans.
Comic conventions are fan conventions held annually to celebrate and promote the comic book, comic art and animation/anime industry. Over the years, they have extended to cover a number of TV shows, movies, video games and other pop culture elements popularized by or associated with the science fiction or fantasy genres. They feature interactive discussion panels, special shows and workshops, and encourage fans to dress up in costumes of their favorite characters (known as "cos-play").
Two of the largest conventions, Comic-Con and Dragon*Con, have in the past showcased material from Lost. Both have also included discussion panels in which Lost writers, producers and cast answered fan questions and showed spoilerish material for the next season. The crossover between the Lost and comic book world is considerable not only due to the overlapping interest of fans in both groups, but also due to the fact that many of the writers are professed fans of comic books and/or former comic writers themselves.
Held annually in the summertime in San Diego, CA
Lost made its debut at Comic-Con 2004 on July 24 with the world premiere preview of a predict-version of "Pilot, Part 1".
Guests on panel this year included Damon Lindelof, Bryan Burk, Paul Dini, Matthew Fox, Dominic Monaghan and Evangeline Lilly. Co-executive producer JJ Abrams was scheduled to attend but ultimately did not take part in the panel.
Guests on panel this year included Damon Lindelof, Bryan Burk, Carlton Cuse, Javier Grillo-Marxuach, Josh Holloway and Maggie Grace.
Some details of the Season 1 DVD were revealed.
Damon Lindelof made the statement, "We may never know what the Numbers mean".

Guests on panel this year included Damon Lindelof, Bryan Burk, Carlton Cuse, Jorge Garcia and Daniel Dae Kim.
A preview of the mobisodes was shown; at that time it was called Lost Video Diaries and the premise was different: Hurley found a functional video camera and used it to record events on the Island.
Reveals/spoilers from the panel discussion included:
Someone asked a question about time, and the panel responded "You're making the basic assumption that they've been there as long as they think they've been there".
Season 3 will be "more scientific", and there will be more off-island scenes.
Desmond will be back in Season 3.
Kate will choose a lover.
Revealed the name of one Season 3 episode to be A Tale of Two Cities.
Bernard and Rose are not involved with DHARMA.
The countdown clock hieroglyphics mean "Underworld".
Debunked the theory that the Smoke monster was a Nanobot cloud yet again.
Neither confirmed nor denied the existence of an underwater hatch.
Rachel Blake from The Lost Experience made an appearance "in character" and accused the writers of being liars; she then introduced HansoExposed.com. Her outburst can be seen on YouTube. Also, glyphs were found on bracelets of panel members Garcia, Kim and Lindelof.
Some merchandise was marketed, including McFarlane Toys revealing their new line of Lost figurines.

" 5:00-6:00 Lost Season 4 — If the Lost finale was any indication of things to come, you will not want to miss this panel!

They'll spotlight bonus features from the 3rd season DVD box set, preview the new Lost video game, take questions from the audience, and perhaps serve up more surprises. "
Following the interview was a short film, information about which can be found under the Orchid article.

There was no LOST panel at Comic-Con 2010. In San Diego, Elizabeth Mitchell attended her "V" panel and J.J. Abrams also attended the event.
Entertainment Weekly Presents...Totally LOST: One Year Later— EW's Lost gurus Jeff "Doc" Jensen and Dan "Dan" Snierson wax nostalgic about the past, perhaps with a surprise guest or two, and discuss how they're "moving on" in the wake of Lost's departure from the air a year ago. The duo will look to the future by previewing promising TV obsessions. Room 5AB
LOST had a panel at Comic-Con 2011 where there were surprise guests in Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse; the "spat" between the executive producers on Twitter merely a ruse to hide their appearances.
The executive producers answered the question of whether they truly did know the ending of the show way back in season one by shocking the crowd by announcing there is footage they deleted from the "Exodus, Part One", Cuse calling it "too much."
Lost director Jack Bender himself shot the new footage on the Disney backlot on a patch of lawn near where "Brothers & Sisters" used to film, and Titus Welliver and Mark Pellegrino happily showed up to do it."

Mansa district and sessions judge Jagdish Singh Khushdil has awarded life imprisonment to Gautam Oberoi, 30, a resident of Mansa for murdering his father by stabbing him with a pair of scissors in August 2012.
The convict had stabbed his father, Amarjit Oberoi (55), with a pair of scissors eight times on August 19, 2012, after an argument over his drinking habit.
Amarjit was taken to the civil hospital and then transferred to a private hospital. However, the family thought it fit to bring the victim home to avoid the cost of treatment, something that is said to have contributed to his death.
ASI Jagdev Singh was drafted in as the eyewitness in the case. A case under Section 302 (murder) of Indian Penal Code was registered against the accused at the Mansa city-I police station the same day.

TMF Board focused on new projects while Congress weighs funding
Alan Thomas speaks Nov. 14 at the Government Innovation Forum presented by Juniper Networks and produced by FedScoop. (FedScoop)
Written by Carten Cordell
Sep 13, 2018 | FEDSCOOP
Even though the House and Senate haven't decided whether they'll provide more money for the government's Technology Modernization Fund in fiscal 2019, Alan Thomas said he and the TMF Board are still busy looking for its next projects.
"There's a pipeline of existing projects that we're looking at. You'll be hearing about some decisions soon," the Federal Acquisition Service commissioner said at an AFFIRM event Thursday discussing the fund. "We did not take into account whether we were going to get another tranche of money."
The fiscal 2019 budget for TMF, which offers financing for agency IT modernization projects on a revolving basis, has been a question mark since August, when the Senate voted not to include the fund in its appropriations bill, citing a lack of information from agencies on why more funding is needed.
Because the House version of the bill included $150 million in funding, both appropriations committees sought to craft a negotiated bill in conference Thursday, leaving the possibility that TMF could still receive at least some appropriations when fiscal 2019 begins Oct. 1.
Thomas, a member of the TMF Board that determines which agency projects receive funding, said that because agencies are expected to pay back any funds received within five years of award, the board will continue to evaluate proposals, congressional funding or not.
"One of the key things we're looking at for projects is the ability to pay back," he said. "We haven't had a single discussion about, 'Hey, what about the next tranche of money?' We're solely focused on a pipeline of projects and the merit of those projects."
Headed by a seven-member board that includes Federal CIO Suzette Kent, the TMF was established with $100 million initial funding passed in March as part of a fiscal 2018 omnibus package. In June, the fund awarded $45 million to the departments of Agriculture, Energy and Housing and Urban Development for modernization projects.
The initial installments of those awards began dispersing in the past month-and-a-half, said Elizabeth Cain, executive director of the TMF Program Management Office. Agencies have one year to make their first repayment installation, or six months after the completion of their project.
That means even without congressional appropriations, the fund should be able to sustain itself as agencies begin to pay it back.
But given the fund's integral role in the administration's IT modernization efforts, working with Congress will be essential to the long-term success of the TMF.
Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., said last month that officials didn't provide enough information about the program's positive results and return on investment to justify more funding.
"I wasn't going to allocate $210 million to something that we don't know that it's working," he said.
Thomas said that while Kent continued to work with Congress as the TMF Board's representative, the modernization projects underway need time to develop before showing such results.
"It's just a tad premature to talk about ROI, because we just funded three projects that are about half the fund," he said. "I think those kinds of metrics, like ROI, you see over the next 12 months. Let's see how those projects perform."

Q: Simple way to get two language WP site I am trying to make a site with two languages. I was looking for a solution and didn't find a simple how-to answer. Also, I prefer not to use plugins when it is possible.
What I'm trying to do:
1) To have a domain.com/en and domain.com/ru while default redirect is at domain.com/en.
2) One WP engine install, same admin panel with same language - English.
3) Free way of styling things(this include html too, not only css). This is the most problematic part of course.
I can't figure out how to make this. I know there is a way to call different headers and footers, but I don't know how to manage this effectively with two languages site. I can use for example different categories for different languages, but is this good practice and is this going to work properly?

A: You can use below code for translating strings:
add_filter('gettext', 'translate_text');
add_filter('ngettext', 'translate_text');

function translate_text($translated) {
    $translated = str_ireplace('Choose an option', 'Select', $translated);
    $translated = str_ireplace('Original Text', 'Your Replacment Text', $translated);
return $translated;
}

But I have no idea for translating complex contents. I know you don't want to use plugins but as my research, we must write php code very heavy as a plugin to work. I recommend WPGLOBUS, It create an icon for every post or page field like title, content or categoris and more, while you click on the icon you can enter your translation for unlimited number of languagess which you set before in the settings, plugin generates an yoursite.com/ru  address without generate or need to any new stylesheet, js or pages or load any additional file.

A: Here's a simple (so, not exhaustive) how to:

*

*Make two custom post types, 'en' and 'ru'. This will make sure all your posts will have urls www.example.com/en/post-slug and www.example.com/ru/post-slug

*Make .po and .mo files for both languages (or only for russian if english is already the default language for your theme)

*In your functions.php make sure the right textdomain is loaded by using the locale filter based on the post type:
add_filter( 'locale', 'wpse210218_set_locale' );
function wpse210218_set_locale ($lang) {
  if ( 'ru' == get_post_type() ) {
    return 'ru_RU';
  } else {
    return 'en_EN';
  }
}

As for html and css, you can have different templates for different post types, so that is easily solved.


The fitness coach believes workers, with his help, can make changes to their diet and lifestyle.
When Hollywood fitness expert Jessie Pavelka signed up to lead a team of contestants on The Biggest Loser in 2014, the reality-TV show was shrouded in controversy – the previous seasons were criticised for fat shaming and extreme diets.
But the show's "extreme" methods for fast weight loss were against everything Pavelka's wellness brand had spent years developing. "Every trainer had their own approach on the show," says the 34-year-old entrepreneur, who was in Dubai recently to collaborate on an employee-specific programme targeted towards greater health and well-being.
"I never asked people to cut their calories. It's probably why I didn't win," he says with a chuckle. "Weight loss used to be all about cutting calories, but now science has proven that it isn't. It is about the quality of food. Being on the show showed me what works and what doesn't, and reminded me that success towards healthy living will be short-lived if measured on a scale.
The Biggest Loser isn't the first reality-TV show Pavelka has been a part of. He also lent his expertise to Obese: A Year to Save My Life and Fat: The Fight of My Life in the UK, and as a result, has developed a global following.
While the cameras have stopped rolling for now, Pavelka has teamed up with Cisco to develop an employee wellness programme based on those four elements.
"It will give them an opportunity to look at their life and not necessarily me prescribing a programme. They will have to sit and look at their routine and come up with small, practical and simple solutions to improve their health," he says.
He says it's more than just weight loss – "it has evolved into helping people overcome depression, divorce or any of their other issues through exercise and healthy living". He says people are always looking for measurable results and trying to find quick-fixes. "It is easy to understand the benefits of exercise and nutrition, but that is not all of it," he suggests.
"The other two elements – meditation and mindfulness – are equally important to the equation. It is also about connecting with your support system, which is sometimes overlooked. We always focus on the stuff we can see and measure. But success happens in places which you cannot measure on a scale, too.
Pavelka also leads by example. Even with a busy schedule of TV commitments, his programme and collaborations, he takes time to meditate and write music.
"I have my morning and evening rituals that I do not let anything get in the way of," says the trainer, whose father is a country-music singer.

Trulia Launches Geolocation Mobile Ads For Agents
Trulia wants your phone to ring.
That's why they are launching a new ad platform that will enable you to place mobile ads on the site's most highly trafficked pages, including the previously off-limits map view page (below).
Until now, consumers could only contact an agent directly if they were on specific property's details page.
Up to five agents per zipcode can purchase the mobile ads. One agent can also purchase all five spots, meaning a single agent could own one hundred percent of a zipcode. The ads are geolocated, and appear in the Trulia iPhone app, Android app and mobile browser version of the site.
Trulia reports that 30 percent of their weekend traffic is now coming in from mobile, with 10.4 million monthly visits originating on mobile devices.
"Mobile is clearly the future of the real estate shopping experience," said Pete Flint, CEO and co-founder of Trulia in a press release. "We're excited to help agents connect with our highly engaged audience through the Trulia Mobile Ads platform."
Pricing is only available by calling Trulia. It will vary based on the size of the market and the average sales price in the zipcode.
You can learn more about Trulia's advertising here.

'I have nothing to hide' - Ex- Dep BoG Governor refutes complicity in banking crisis
Source: Ghana|myjoyonline.com|edwin.appiah@myjoyonline.com
Dr. Johnson Asiama
Former Second Deputy Governor of Bank of Ghana says he is ready to face prosecution following allegations linking him to the banking crisis.
"I am ready, I have nothing to hide," Dr Johnson Asiama braced himself in an interview with Raymond Acquah on Upfront.
The third National Vice-Chairperson of the governing New Patriotic Party Michael Omari Wadie has pointed accusing fingers at Dr. Asiama over the financial crisis that has led to the collapse of nine local banks.
Dr. Asiama confirmed in the interview, he is under investigation at the Economic and Organised Crime Office (EOCO).
The former deputy Governor who lasted 21 months in office said following his exit he has "heard a lot of tip offs that there are hawks in the party who think that I should be slaughtered."
Fingers have been pointed at the Bank of Ghana over the country's financial crisis and its failure to enforce banking regulations.
Banks were allegedly set up without meeting the minimum capital requirements, while liquidity support to some struggling banks ended up being used to set up new banks.
There are also reports that millions in liquidity support to some banks was used to say thank you to top officials at BoG for okaying the release of public funds to private bankers.
Dr. Johnson Asiama, denied taking any money from banks which received such support.

"I don't need that. Governors are well paid," he dismissed.
He said his work at the central bank was all done "in good faith" and explained the best way to look at the financial crisis was not to personalize it or politicize it.
He said context was important in unravelling the crisis. He said banks began struggling not because of corporate governance lapses but because of the power crisis.
"The problem was not anybody's doing it had to do with the dumsor," he said and explained banks were overexposed after giving loans to government to solve the power crisis which began in 2012 and went on well into 2015.
