* That motorcycles are for transportation as well as recreation.
* That motorcycling Is a social good.
Commuting by motorcycle on Monday, June 18th shows the positive value of motorcycles and scooters for transportation. For hundreds of thousands of workers, motorcycles and scooters are an economical, efficient and socially responsible form of mobility that saves energy, helps the environment and provides a broad range of other public benefits.


Greencore CEO Patrick Coveney has reportedly said he has no intention of quitting the food group after it announced the sale of its entire US operation.
He told the Irish Independent that he did not consider stepping down in tandem with the decision by the world's biggest sandwich-maker to ditch America, the expansion into which Mr Coveney conceded he had been an 'advocate and champion' of.
"I had the benefit of becoming CEO when I was in my mid-30s. I'm 47 years of age. I have plenty of enthusiasm and energy to do this job," he said.
"My experience and capability in relationships in the UK, I think, are a very good fit with what we want to do for the next chapter of growth."
Yesterday the company announced announced the planned sale of its US operations to an affiliate of Hearthside Food Solutions, for £817 million (€926 million) on a cash and debt-free basis.
The convenience foods giant said that the transaction will 'support a strengthened balance sheet', with up to £293 million of the proceeds set to be used to reduce leverage.
'Post-transaction, Greencore will have a leading position in its core UK market, greater financial and strategic flexibility, and potential for dynamic capital management,' the company said in a statement.
Completion of the deal is expected by late November 2018, following shareholder and competition approval.
Earlier this year, Greencore announced that it had delivered a 'challenging first half', according to its interim results for the 26 weeks ended 30 March 2018.
"The first half of FY18 has been challenging for Greencore and its shareholders," Coveney, said at the time.

Bill Murray and Director Sofia Coppola during 2003 Venice Film Festival - "Lost in Translation" Premiere at Palazzo del Cinema in Venice Lido, Italy. The pair are reuniting for a new film.
Sofia Coppola and Bill Murray will reunite 16 years after the Oscar-winning "Lost in Translation" in the splashiest feature film yet announced by Apple.
A24 said Tuesday that Coppola's "On the Rocks" will be the indie studio's first project under its joint deal with Apple, which is pushing into original content. The New York-set film stars Rashida Jones as a young mother who reconnects with her larger-than-life father, to be played by Murray.
"Lost in Translation" earned Coppola an Oscar for best screenplay and numerous nominations including Murray for best actor. Coppola also directed Murray in the Netflix holiday special "A Very Murray Christmas."
Production on "On the Rocks," which Coppola also wrote, will begin this spring in New York.
Apple and A24 last November signed a multiyear production partnership.

(from Ar. "soaked bread"), cold garlic soup. Surprised? Gazpacho was not "a liquid salad" or "garden soup" as known today. In the 15th C as there were no tomatoes or bell shaped peppers in European or Arab countries. Gazpacho was an Arab invention long before Columbus and could be served as a liquid or a solid.
It could be derived from the corruption of mozarab, "must-arab," 'would be Arab' or the Hebrew gazaz, to break into pieces, as basically it is bread broken into pieces. Others believe the word is derived from the Mascara word caspa, which normally means dandruff but in this case "residue" or "fragments," referring to the small pieces of bread and vegetables in the soup. With the addition of vinegar some suspect it has Roman roots.
Gazpacho was a refreshing drink for peasants, fieldworkers in olive plantations, vineyards, citrus groves, cork farms and wheat fields. Andalusians, in general, cannot live without it in summer. Originally, gazpacho did not contain bread but water and olive oil with garlic. Bread was added later. In Spain, it was poor peoples' food mashed in a dornillo, a wooden mortar. The oldest Spanish recipe transcribed is thought to have come from Cordova, which consisted of four basic ingredients: garlic, bread, oil and water. In later additions, one week old the bread was called for.
By the Middle Ages, it was a soup called ajo blanco, white garlic. Ingredients then generally consisted of olive oil, garlic, bread, almonds, garum (with an anchovy base), sugar, salt and vinegar. There were numerous inter-regional variations with or without almonds or vinegar. Others included apples and raisins.
Cordovans also used ground beans, pine kernels or onions and cucumbers. In Malaga, grapes were added. Some say it migrated to France where it is called pot-au-feu but others maintain that it was unknown outside of Spain until the 19th C. when Eugenia Montijo, the Andalusian wife of Napoleon III, introduced Andalusian recipes into the French court. By then it had evolved into a cold soup with the additions of tomatoes and bell shaped peppers. Gradually almonds were omitted for the cost.
Grind pine nuts and peeled almonds separately and then together.
Put garlic cloves in a small pot with broth and bring to a boil. Well well cooked, grind it with the nuts. Add grated cheese and egg yolks. When well ground blend it with the broth and cook.
Add sugar, rosewater and vinegar in which ground cloves, ginger, cinnamon and pepper have been steeping overnight; Cook until very thick.
Serve in soup bowls and garnish with sugar and cinnamon.
 This is the closest recipe to medieval gazpacho found by the Medieval Spanish Chef.
 A marble mortar with a wooden pestle are recommended.
 Nola does not instruct to chill the soup but garlic soups are served cold traditionally especially in summer.

A soil climate monitoring network, consisting of seven automated weather stations, was established between 1999 and 2003 in the McMurdo Sound region of Antarctica. Soil temperature, soil water content, air temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, and wind speed and direction are recorded hourly and downloaded annually. Two 30 m deep permafrost temperature monitoring boreholes were established adjacent to the soil climate stations in the Wright Valley and at Marble Point in January 2007. Sixteen thermistors (accurate to ±0.1°C) were installed in each borehole measuring temperature once every hour and recording the mean every six hours. One year of permafrost temperatures were available (January 2007 to January 2008). The overall aim of this thesis was to make use of the soil climate monitoring database from 1999 to 2007 to investigate Antarctic soil climate.
Active layer depth (depth of thawing) varied inter-annually, with no significant trend between 1999 and 2007. The active layer increased with decreasing latitude (R2 = 0.94), and decreased with increasing altitude (R2 = 0.95). A multiple regression model was produced whereby active layer depth was predicted as a function of mean summer air temperature, mean winter air temperature, total summer solar radiation and mean summer wind speed (R2 = 0.73).
Annual temperature cycles were observed at all depths in the boreholes. At Marble Point, an annual temperature range of lt;1°C occurred at 15.2 m, lt;0.5°C at 18.4 m and lt;0.1°C at 26.4 m and at Wright Valley, an annual temperature range of lt;1°C occurred at 14.0 m, lt;0.5°C at 17.2 m and lt;0.1°C at 25.2 m. Given that the depth of Zero Annual Amplitude determined depends on the sensitivity of the measurement method, it is suggested that instead of referring to a depth of Zero Annual Amplitude , the depth at which the annual temperature range is less than a given value is a more useful concept.
Mean annual and mean seasonal air and soil temperatures varied inter-annually and there was no significant trend of warming or cooling over the 1999 - 2007 period. Mean annual air temperatures were primarily influenced by winter air temperatures. Mean annual and mean summer soil temperatures were warmer than air temperatures due to heating by solar radiation. Mean summer air temperatures correlated well with the Southern Annular Mode Index (SAMI) at all sites (0.61 lt; R2 lt; 0.73) except Victoria Valley; however there was no correlation between mean annual or mean winter temperatures and the SAMI.
(R2 gt; 0.79). Near-surface soil temperature was strongly correlated with incoming solar radiation at Victoria Valley (0.14 lt; R2 lt; 0.76) and Granite Harbour (0.49 lt; R2 lt; 0.82), but was not significantly correlated at other sites (0 lt; R2 lt; 0.57). There was no significant correlation between air temperature and wind speed, air temperature and solar radiation and near-surface soil temperature and wind speed, despite occasions of strong correlation on the diurnal time scale. Diurnal summer cycles in air and soil temperatures were driven by solar radiation. Multiple regressions combining the effects of air temperature, solar radiation and wind speed approximated near-surface soil temperatures well at every site during both summer and winter (0.88 lt; R2 lt; 0.98).


The climate protection project on Bali composts organic waste that previously had to be dumped. In this way, methane emissions from the tip can be avoided and high-value compost is being produced.

The biomass is aerated to ensure aerobic composting, resulting in the production of carbon dioxide and heat rather than methane.
Factory workers busy separating out biomass for composting.
The quality of the compost is inspected.
The compost is an organic, high quality fertilizer. It has to compete with substituted, chemical fertilizers on the market.
The compost is sold to larger clients such as hotels or golf ressorts. But also small farmers can buy the fertilizer there.
Bali, the most important tourism destination in Indonesia, has a growing waste problem which is already having an impact on the tourism sector. In the so far untouched landscape, waste is being illegally disposed of in rivers and lakes, canals, and along the streets. The small amount of gathered waste from the project region Gianyar, in the southeast of the island, is disposed of on a tip in the vicinity of the village Temesi. The methane developing from such a tip is neither collected nor burned and therefore rises unhindered into the atmosphere. Methane is one of the most harmful greenhouse gases and contributes in large quantities to the destabilization of the climate.
In the face of the deterioration of the situation on-site, the Rotary Club of Bali Ubud decided to counteract this problem and planned and implemented a composting plant.
85 per cent of the waste in this region is derived from organic material, which can be composted and does not have to be brought to the tip. Another 5 percent, mainly plastics, can be recycled so that after the implementation of the project only 10 percent are dumped on the tip. Since aerobic composting does not cause methane emissions, a considerable reduction of greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved.
In addition to the effect on the climate, the local population also benefits, in that the air pollution from the tip is reduced, the waste volume is reduced by around 90 percent, and different jobs on-site are created.
All parties involved hope that through this model project, which was started in May 2008, composting will spread to new areas on Bali and all of Indonesia. A theme park next to the plant will sensitize visitors to the waste problem and give them a better understanding of composting.

Q: How does NAT Work on the Packet Level? So I am studying for my Network + and CCNA and had some confusion about how packets work. I was reading a similar topic at
How do IP answer packets reach their destination inside of a private LAN?
And I have a question on what's included inside the Ethernet frame and IP Packet. I understand that when a packet leaves its origin computer and heads to the Default Gateway to the destination computer, it undergoes NAT from both the origin Default Gateway and the Destination Default Gateway. Inside the Ethernet Frame or TCP/IP Packets, at any point when undergoing Network Address Translation (NAT) and after, does any part of the Ethernet or TCP/IP Frames/Packets retain information of the origin computer such as the origin computer's MAC Address, origin's computer IP Address or any personal identifiable information? Will the receiving computer know all these local networking information from the sender?

A: NAT is done by the gateway or firewall. When the gateway receives the packet, it does the following:

*

*Discard the frame (Layer 2) header/trailer. We can pretty much ignore the frame since every switch will discard and recreate a new frame header/trailers. They never gets reused.

*Discard the internal transport (Layer 3) header/trailer

*Discard the internal network (Layer 4) header/trailer

The gateway will keep track of the source's internal IP & port and assigns it a new external IP (often the gateway's own IP) & port. It's the gateway's job to remember internal/external IP and port mappings so that it will know how to return packet replies back to the source.

*

*The gateway then adds new network & transport headers/trailers based on the assigned external IP port.

No part of the source computer's Ethernet or TCP/IP Frames/Packets/Source IP/MAC Address is received by the destination computer. The internal source & port is entirely discarded when the packet leaves the first gateway.
However, the destination client's can usually find out the original computer's gateway. So if the owner of the original gateway logs connection data, he can find out who sent which packet. It all depends on how long the logs are kept. That's a lot of data to be storing, so it usually isn't done by anyone except Internet service providers, college campuses, and some larger companies. Similarly, if you use a proxy or VPN, your source is safe if the proxy or VPN owner doesn't track connections.
(It's also possible that the application data contain personal information, but that's outside of the scope of networking.)

The fate of Paramount's marquee spy franchise has been thrown into question following the soft debut of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit at the North American box office, where the action thriller failed to connect with younger audiences unfamiliar with author Tom Clancy's iconic character.
Director Kenneth Branagh's reboot, starring 33-year-old actor Chris Pine and in a bid to relaunch the series, opened to a soft $18 million over the long Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. More than a third of the audience was over the age of 50, while only 15 percent was under 25, according to exit-polling service CinemaScore. All told, 63 percent of the audience was over the age of 35.

Bananas over bananas? "Concept Art" banana-duct-taped-to-wall sold for $120,000 to $150,000, eaten by performance artist: "it was very delicious"
Tagged: art, figures, funny, humor, news, people, society
The $120,000 Art Basel Banana, Explained
So, uh, whose banana is it?
Art Basel Banana is catchy, but it's not actually the work's name. Titled Comedian, it's by Maurizio Cattelan. Cattelan is an Italian artist and an absurdist—in 2016 he replaced a toilet at the Guggenheim with a fully functioning gold one. He called the artwork America.
Did anyone buy it?
Yes—three buyers, in fact. It's reported two editions went for $120,000 before the price was raised to $150,000.
How could three people buy the banana?
In this case, you aren't actually buying the work itself—it's a banana. It's going to rot. What are you buying, then? The certificate of art. Essentially you bought the idea rather than the object.
When the banana goes bad, the owner can replace it, according to the artist's instructions. It will still be considered a Cattelan.
I just want to learn what happened next.
On Saturday, when the fair was at its most crowded, a man came up and ate the banana. Real casual like. Just went up, grabbed the fruit off the wall, and took a big bite.
It wasn't some random passerby but performance artist David Datuna. He explained his actions on Instagram: "Art performance by me. I love Maurizio Cattelan artwork and I really love this installation. It's very delicious." But also: "Conceptually, I ate the concept of the banana."
A man ate the $120,000 Art Basel banana — and didn't think it tasted that rich: 'Its taste was delicious — not like $120,000, but it was really good'
But the gallery wasn't laughing. The Miami Herald reported that gallery owner Emmanuel Perrotin was about to head to the airport when he heard that the banana was eaten, and he returned to the Galerie Perrotin "clearly upset." A guest volunteered their own banana as a replacement, which was eventually affixed to the wall where the original had been. (Neither Perrotin nor Cattelan were immediately available for comment. A spokeswoman for Cattelan told NBC News that the artist is not seeking any criminal or civil action against Datuna.)
Someone ate a $120,000 banana that an artist had taped to a wall
Entitled "Comedian," the artwork comprised a banana bought in a Miami grocery store, and a single piece of duct tape. The gallery behind the sale, Galerie Perrotin, said there were three editions, and that two had already sold for around $120,000.
Organizers had previously confirmed to CNN that the banana can be replaced if needed, as the artist's instructions for the work are "intentionally imprecise." But in a statement Sunday, the gallery announced that the installation had been removed altogether amid public safety concerns.
"Art Basel collaboratively worked with us to station guards and create uniform lines," it read. "However, the installation caused several uncontrollable crowd movements and the placement of the work on our booth compromised the safety of the artwork around us, including that of our neighbors."
An Instagram account set up for the artwork also posted a video showing gallery founder, Emmanuel Perrotin, removing a banana from the wall and eating it himself. "Maurizio, it's a good banana, I have to say," he is filmed saying.

Q: User Control editing that I did not create I am editing .ascx and .ascx.cs controls, however, I am seeing using MMG.Global and using MMG.CMS and these are namespaces within the .ascx control as follows:
<%@ Import Namespace="MMG.Global" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="MMG.CMS" %>

Well, the problem is that these files contain all of the objects that I will need as well, like buttons and placeholders, etc..  The new service will be with IDSS, and will replace MMG's service, but wondering if it is possible to edit these files and what would be involved in changing out the MMG to use IDSS instead?
I believe MMG is a reference that was used within the original project and when it was built was deployed within the .ascx and .ascx.cs files themselves.  But I don't know how this sort of thing works, which is why I'm asking.
What would be the best way to replace the 20 - 30 User Controls that have MMG prefixes?

But these aren't the namespaces, and wondering if I just edit the .ascx and .ascx.cs files, is that good enough?  Or would it be better to create a New Project and tie it in the same way that MMG is tied into it?
IDSS is a web service that needs to replace MMG, been struggling on how to implement this exactly within the current setup of the site.

A:
Well, the problem is that these files contain all of the objects that
  I will need as well, like buttons and placeholders, etc.. The new
  service will be with IDSS, and will replace MMG's service, but
  wondering if it is possible to edit these files and what would be
  involved in changing out the MMG to use IDSS instead?

You can replace mmg with idss within MasterMain.master <%@ Register TagPrefix="mmg" ... %> to <%@ Register TagPrefix="idss" ... %>
If you do so, you will have to rename all mmg tags inside MasterMain.master like <idss:SEOControl ID="TheSEOControl" runat="server" />

But these aren't the namespaces, and wondering if I just edit the
  .ascx and .ascx.cs files, is that good enough?

You are correct. There are not namespace, so renaming tag does not do any harm.
Note: if a control is registered inside web.config, you cannot simply rename in a single file. However, it is not what I see in your scenario. For example,
<system.web>
  <pages>
    <controls>
     <add tagPrefix="telerik" namespace="Telerik.Web.UI"
        assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" />
    </controls>
  </pages>
</system.web>

Charity is saved as county council gives green light to new Bebside station
More than 250 garages earmarked for demolition across Northumberland
Plans lodged for 61 affordable homes in Northumberland town
Plans have been submitted for a new £7 million housing development on the site of the former Seton Hall residential home site in Tweedmouth.
Friday, 19th November 2021, 10:34 am
Housing association Bernicia has lodged a planning application for 61 affordable rental and shared ownership properties on the Ord Road site.
The proposal was first unveiled in September and has been out to public consultation over the past two months.
A mix of two, three and four bedroom houses and 19 two and three bedroom bungalows are proposed.
A computer generated image of how the proposed homes will look.
It would comprise 37 affordable rent units and 24 shared ownership units.
The houses for rent or shared ownership are aimed specifically at local people – for young people starting out on the housing ladder, couples, young families and older people looking to downsize their existing home.
A planning report on the applicant's behalf states: "At this stage it is proposed that the affordable homes will comprise a mixture of affordable rent (60%) and shared ownership (40%).
"The shortage of these identified properties in the area is based on Bernicia's own data regarding housing need in the area, which shows that there is a strong demand for three-bedroom bungalows and four-bed houses.
Northumberland County Council leader Glen Sanderson, Cllr Georgina Hill, Cllr Isabel Hunter and Michael Farr, Bernicia executive director of assets and growth.
"Furthermore, in the last 10 years there has been a low occupant turnover, meaning that when properties do become available the number of bids is high."
Rents for the properties will all be affordable – that means they will be at least 20% cheaper than market rents in the local area.
The proposed shared ownership properties allow people to part buy and part rent their new home, with the option of buying bigger shares when they can afford to.
The site will be landscaped, keeping the majority of trees while planting new native species to provide habitat for wildlife. All the properties will be highly energy efficient.
The public consultation saw 500 leaflets distributed and although only 19 responses were received, the majority were supportive.
Michael Farr, Bernicia executive director of assets and growth, said: "We were very encouraged by the level of support for the scheme from local people during our pre-planning consultation exercise, which included leafleting hundreds of properties in the area to inform them of our plans."
The scheme, if approved, will create 55 construction jobs and support 65 posts in the supply chain during a two-year build.
Proposal for social housing in Tweedmouth welcomed

Meet Argentina's Rights Blazer Silvia Augsburger

ROSARIO, Argentina (WOMENSENEWS)–On a cold Monday morning in June, some 50 women from various political backgrounds gathered in this Argentine port city to talk about gender roles inside the home. They conceived of a society in which men and women of all classes share both the responsibility to care for children and the sick and elderly and have the option to work.
Panelist Silvia Augsburger, a socialist former congresswoman, said the "classic idea" of men as the primary wage earners without family responsibilities is no longer viable in Argentina.
"We need a paradigm shift, a cultural transformation," she told the gathering. "The main obstacle is reaching those women for whom it would never occur to step into a different role."
Augsburger is a leading fighter for women's rights in Argentina, a country that she says remains largely unequal despite huge advances, including a female head of state.
As a councilwoman in Rosario between 1997 and 2005, Augsburger authored a plan for equal opportunities and the treatment of men and women, a law to provide care for victims of sexual violence and a municipal administration manual free of sexist language.
From there she expanded her political reach to other human rights.
In 2010 the country legalized same-sex marriage, a cause she helped lead.
Last May, a transgender rights bill first introduced by Augsburger in 2007 passed unanimously in the Senate. The law allows people to alter their gender on official documents without a diagnosis of gender dysphoria and makes it easier to obtain free hormone therapy or gender reassignment surgery.
The laws have put Argentina in the global human rights forefront and represent what Augsburger calls a fundamental societal change.
New Agenda Items
On the heels of those victories, Augsburger said in a recent interview that it's now time to place new items on the women's rights agenda, such as stronger rights for domestic workers, assisted fertilization techniques and family names. Women here maintain their maiden names when married; children almost exclusively adopt only their father's last name. Augsburger thinks children should be able to adopt both their mother and father's last names, as is allowed in all other countries in Mercosur, the South American trade bloc.
Abortion is illegal in Argentina. In this country a woman dies every three days as a result of unsafe abortion.
But the silence has also been broken on the abortion debate, she said, despite continued fierce opposition from the church. In March, the Supreme Court ruled to decriminalize abortion in cases of rape and when there is a threat to a woman's life.
"We've been talking about these things for a long time," Augsburger said. "And though there is progress, women remain underrepresented in all areas of public life."
Argentina appears ahead of other Latin American countries in terms of gender equality, with a Ley de Cupos, or quota law, that ensures a minimum level of women's legislative representation, at 30 percent. But Augsburger says that percentage, designed as a floor, has become a ceiling. And when applied to executive and judicial positions, women remain a tiny minority. For example, today only 2 of 24 governors are women.
Augsburger, 50, became active in politics during college at the University of Rosario, where she studied biochemistry.
She remained a leader in the socialist youth movement after college, and in 1993 she attended a socialist youth festival in Porto, Italy, where she met Italian women's rights leader Pia Locatelli, then vice-chair and now president of Socialist International Women. Locatelli spoke about gender inequality and stereotypes and the different opportunities available to men and women.
Augsburger, then 31 and the one female among five Argentine youth representatives at the festival, was struck by Locatelli's message.
Consciousness Opened
"Until then, I hadn't really considered the issue of gender inequality or that women face discrimination," Augsburger said. "But it opened my consciousness and gender then became my main focus as an activist."
Post-graduation, she was an activist and leader in the youth socialist party, where she met her husband Daniel, with whom she has two children. Augsburger became a councilwoman in Rosario in 1997 and national deputy in 2005. She served as secretary of women in the National Socialist Party between 1996 and 2002.
In 2005, Argentina's Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Trans was formed in Rosario and socialist activist Esteban Paulón was named its general secretary. He quickly brought a proposal to legalize same-sex marriage to socialist Congressman Eduardo Di Pollina, who presented it to the legislature with Augsburger's signature. For the rest of her term and after, as the bill was discussed in Congress, Augsburger was a tireless advocate for same-sex marriage.
"Silvia was fundamental," said Paulón, now president of the group. "She propelled the project when few did, and became a protagonist and a great defender."
In 2009, after various versions of the law had stalled, Augsburger introduced another version with fellow congresswoman Vilma Ibarra, which passed narrowly in July 2010, making Argentina the first Latin American country to legalize same-sex marriage.
Journalist and activist Bruno Bimbi, author of the book "Marriage Equality," a history of same-sex marriage in Argentina, says he is humbled by Augsburger's approach.
"I remember a freezing Friday night in 2008, after midnight, when Silvia was discussing the [gender identity] law with an assembly of transvestites in the Rosedal [park in Buenos Aires]," he said. "That is her way."
Early Political Interest
For Augsburger, an interest in politics began early. Her childhood in Rosario was marked by the period of military repression between 1976 and 1983 in Argentina, known as the "Dirty War," when thousands of Argentines were killed, or "disappeared." The "repressive society," she said, "had a big impact."
"People would come to my parents' house on Sunday nights to sit around and discuss politics," she said. "I have memories of people sleeping in our house who needed to hide, music from the 60s, the Cuban revolution."
Though no longer in national politics, Augsburger remains active in gay rights issues and regularly meets with Paulón and other activists in Rosario, the home of the LGBT organization's headquarters and the third largest city in Argentina.
Rosario, located four hours from Argentina's capital Buenos Aires, is a hub of political and intellectual activity, where cafes, restaurants and bars fill with lively discussion. Since 1989, the government of Rosario has been Socialist-led.
Now, Augsburger heads the gender division of a socialist think-tank called Igualdad.Argentina (Equality Argentina) and is enrolled in a master's program in gender studies at the University of Rosario.
The degree program, created in 1993 and the first of its kind in Latin America, provides a systematic study of gender discrimination and feminist theory.
"To me, any situation that generates inequality is unsustainable and intolerable," Augsburger said, "and requires a study of what advance is needed to end that discrimination."

Uncompromising on Quality
Home / LE Lifestyle / Shopping / Uncompromising on Quality
Cheri by Maneemas believes in doing the best job for their customers, and in using the best material to create something to be cherished for eternity.
By Laurence Civil.
"We have been in the business 20 years," says Somchai of Cheri by Maneemas, which specializes in custom-designed pieces of jewelry. "Our reputation comes from our non-negotiable resistance to compromise on quality. The process starts with the stones. It could be that the customer buys a box of matched stones or a piece of old jewelry they would like us to extract the gems from and redesign them into a new piece for them. "
Somchai said two factors led to their getting in the jewelry business. "Firstly, my father was an importer of loose diamond and precious stones so we had a reliable supply of the raw materials," he said. "Secondly, my wife – Onmanee — loves to design. She studied colored stones at the Asian Institute of Gemological Studies (AIGS) at the Jewelry Trade Center on Silom Road.
He said their business started very humbly. "We had our friends get interested in some of my father's loose stones," he says. "Having found those that they like, Onmanee would do a pencil sketch of how each of the stones could be set. Once they agreed to our proposed design we would make the exclusive piece for them. The creative process is virtually identical to going to the tailors to have a suit made."
Having established that there was a demand for handmade quality pieces of jewelry, they opened their first retail shop in 1992 at Fortune Tower on Ratchadapisek. Later they moved to their current location in Zone D on the ground floor of Central World at the Ratchprasong intersection of Rajdamri Road. "Sitting at the crossroad of Bangkok, most of our customers find this location very comfortable to get to whether by car or sky train," Somchai says.
How did Cheri by Maneemas carve a niche for themselves as one of the leading manufactures and retailers of handmade jewelry in Thailand? "It's because we only use gemstones that are of the best color, cut, and clarity," Somchai replies. "Customized jewelry represents 80% of our total business."
Basically, this is how they do business. Once the customer has either bought the stones as a set or has brought in their own stones to be set, Cheri by Maneemas offer a complimentary design service. "Onmanee will make a pencil and colored crayon sketch outlining how she feels the stones should best be set. Once the customer is happy with the design concept, we then layout the stone using double sided adhesive tape to show how the piece will look," Somchai says.
At this stage, he continues, "we will estimate the cost to manufacture the piece within a tolerance of + or – 10%. A part payment is usually made at this time with the remainder when the piece is collected or dispatched overseas."
Cheri by Maneemas has its own manufacturing workshop where the setting of 18-carat white gold and either 22- or 23-carat yellow gold are made using wax casts by their goldsmith. The components of the piece then pass through the hands of polishers or setters.
"The only element of the manufacturing process we outsource is the rhodium plating because of the capital cost of the machinery involved," he points out. "This process enhances the beauty of white gold and gives the piece a longer lasting more durable finish. The diamonds and colored stones are set to complete the manufacturing process and the piece is stamped with our logo of registered hallmark, which identifies it worldwide as having been made by us.
"Should a customer bring in an old piece of jewelry that they no longer like, we remove the stones and their old gold is sold as scrap. We would never use it to make one of our pieces as we can't be hundred percent sure of it quality. The gemstones are then set in new gold by our goldsmith."
"Our company name is made of two elements Manee, which means "gem" and "Mas," which means gold," says Somchai. "They are also the elements in both my wife and my daughter's name. The Cheri in our name comes from the French for "love," because of our reputation for working with heart-shaped stones; the emotional factor of our design, and which are less expensive than round stones. We use most South Sea pearls from Australia and the South Pacific complimented with cultured Japanese and freshwater pearls."
It's difficult to say exactly how many pieces Cheri by Maneemas make each year; it must be many hundred and could be close to a thousand. "Our style is most popular with Asian, Indian, and Middle East customers," he says. "It's complicated and intricate; using different stones, which can be seen as tad too elaborate for European tastes. But using the best cut allows light to come into diamonds and send out a sparkling spectrum of the seven colors the rainbow, "What we call the fire in the stone," says Somchai.
More than 50% of their clients are regular customers, with the main customers being Thai and Chinese, with the Middle East being their major export market. Somchai says they are already serving some second-generation customers. "The strength of our business is built on the reputation of trust for high-quality, distinctive design, and competitive pricing," he says. "An important factor is that the customer can trust us; we have built our reputation on this."
When you go to Cheri By Maneemas for your jewelry, you are sure to purchase on a shop that is uncompromising on quality. As Somchai assures: "We do the best job for our customers; using the best material to create something to be cherished for eternity."

So, Tom Brady (or some of the people around him) has seen an opportunity to make some money off the back of the fact that a lot of people worship him as the G.O.A.T and are in awe of the fact that he's still at the very top of the game of American football at the ripe old age of 40.
What they've done is to reveal the secrets behind his continued success in the NFL through a book entitled, The TB12 Method: How to Achieve a Lifetime of Sustained Peak Performance.
The book looks like it's full of workouts for fitness and strength as well as nutrition and hydration information. The thing I like about it is the fact that the workouts are using resistance bands as opposed to regular weights. I like this for two reasons: I already have some resistance bands, because I don't have room for weights at home, and I've never been a fan of going to the gym.
The general theory behind this method is to make our muscles more flexible by lengthening and softening them. It's a more natural way of exercising your body and treating it with what you put in it. I feel too old and knackered to be punishing my body with aggressive workouts and extreme diets that make you look good on the beach during your summer holidays and would much prefer to try something I can stick to long-term, and this method would appear to proclaim to be just that (or is it that you have to if you want to see any real results from it?).
There looks to be the word 'Pliability' used an awful lot in the book as that is what it's aiming to achieve with regards to the muscles but I kinda like the word 'Prehab' that they use as it's a method aimed at reducing the number of injuries we suffer (perhaps a little late for me) as we go about our sporting lives.
Since my leg surgeries in 2016, I've not been able to get back into playing any sports as I'm still suffering with one of my knees. Maybe this TB12 method will help me pre- and post-surgery once I've been back in to have my knee sorted, and get me back onto the pitch before I go bonkers without any sports in my life. I'm not sure it will but I'm thinking that I might as well give it a go, and with Christmas just around the corner this book is something the kids have said Santa might bring me if I'm a good boy.
Maybe I'm expecting far too much from this 'method' but, hey, what have I got to lose? At the very least I should lose some of the weight I've piled on since the surgeries and at best I should be able to get involved in competitive sports again.
Only time will tell and I'll sure as hell not be buying any of the related items Tom Brady sells from his TB12 website as the prices on there are just insane (and make me question the validity of this method, to be honest, as the items can be sourced much cheaper with a quick search on the internet or even at the local sports store) but I'll post on here the results I see with The TB12 Method and how easy/difficult it is to stick to.
Have you tried the Tom Brady TB12 Method or do you know anyone that has? Let us know in the comments below and tell us how you/they got on with it.

22-year-old Undergraduate, His Mother And Girlfriend Arrested Over Suspected Internet Fraud
By Oyekan (self media writer) | 2 years ago
The operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Benin Zonal Office on Thursday arrested a 22-year-old Computer Science Undergraduate, of the University of Port Harcourt, Kenneth Gift, his girlfriend, Dandy Spice and his mother, Dorah Aninah for suspected internet fraud in Agbor, Delta State.
According to report gathered on Instagram, their arrest was made through, a petition from the US Federal Bureau of investigation, FBI, and intelligence by operatives of the Commission, although the suspects have made useful statements, and will be charged to court as soon investigations are complete by the EFCC.
Information also revealed that, items recovered from the suspects at the point of arrest were, a 5-bedroom duplex, Mercedes-Benz CA250, Mercedes-Benz C250, Mercedes Benz GLK 350, laptop computers and mobile phones, according to report.
The post of the arrest of mother and his girlfriend has created a lot of impression on Social Media, at the age of 22 years, he was still interested in passing examination in school at that particular age, adding that, the society has became something else.
Another user also said, what has his girlfriend do before her arrest? Added that, her girlfriend was just chopping from his money, and that shouldn't be a crime for her arrest.

Have you ever wondered if washing your clothes in hot water really mattered? I can tell you, unless you have heavily soiled clothing, it doesn't. The Farmer and I wash almost all of our clothing on the cold setting and still have clean clothes. Your cold water setting and the power of your detergent will do the work helping you save money and energy.
Your washing machine uses most of it's energy on heating the hot water cycle. So if a regular batch of laundry (not heavily soiled) is washed in hot water, energy is actually being wasted. Using less hot water (and saving energy) can lower greenhouse gas emissions (which is what we're really after).
I can also tell you from personal experience that the less work your water heater has to do, the less you are going to pay on your energy bill. The Farmer and I learned this last year when our water heater broke and was running constantly...causing our energy bill to sky rocket (over $120 dollars more than normal). I'm not saying you have to bathe in cold water, but it wouldn't hurt to use it on your clothes.

Q: show $k<2^m$ if $2^{2^m}+1=\binom{n}{k}$ let $m$ be give positive integer,and $n,k$ be positive integer ,such $n\ge 2k\ge 2$,and
$$2^{2^m}+1=\binom{n}{k}$$
show that: $k<2^m$
Some of my ideas and attempts:
$$\binom{n}{k}=\dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}=\dfrac{n(n-1)(n-2)\cdots(n-k+1)}{k!}=\left(1+\dfrac{n-k}{k}\right)\left(1+\dfrac{n-k}{k-1}\right)\cdots\left(1+\dfrac{n-k}{1}\right)\ge (1+\dfrac{n-k}{\sqrt[k]{k!}})^k\ge\left(1+\dfrac{k}{\sqrt[k]{k!}}\right)^k\ge 1+\dfrac{k^2}{\sqrt[k]{k!}}$$
at last two step use Holder inequality and  Bernoulli's inequality
so we have
$$2^{2^m}\ge \dfrac{k^2}{\sqrt[k]{k!}}$$Now, I can't prove it $k<2^m$

A: If $k = 1$, clearly, $k < 2^m$.
In the following, assume that $k \ge 2$.
We have, for all $q > k \ge 0$,
$$\binom{q + 1}{k} =
\frac{(q + 1)!}{k! (q + 1 -k)!} = \frac{q!}{k! (q - k)!} \frac{q + 1}{q + 1 - k}
\ge \binom{q}{k}.$$
Thus, we have
$$\binom{n}{k} \ge \binom{2k}{k}.$$
Using Mathematical Induction, it is easy to prove that, for all $k \ge 2$,
$$\binom{2k}{k} > 2^k + 1.$$
(Note: Use $\binom{2k+2}{k+1} = \binom{2k}{k}\frac{(2k+1)(2k+2)}{(k+1)^2} > 2\binom{2k}{k}$.)
Thus, we have
$$\binom{n}{k} > 2^k + 1.$$
Thus, we have
$$2^{2^m} + 1 > 2^k + 1$$
which results in
$k < 2^m$.
We are done.

Ever since I started learning Spanish at 7 years old, I have wanted to visit Spain. Specifically I wanted to see Madrid and Barcelona as those are the two cities you always learn about in class. I visited Madrid back in 2013 and absolutely loved everything about the city, but all my friends told me, "just wait until you visit Barcelona!" I finally made it to Barcelona in March 2016 and, of all the cities I visited on that trip, it was the one where I planned to spend the most time and it was definitely the destination I most looked forward to. Unfortunately, during my three days in Barcelona, almost everything that could go wrong did and as a result, I kind of hated everything. Now, I don't know if my hatred for Barcelona was actually about the city of just about a bad visit, but here are all the reasons I hated my trip and how you can avoid my mistakes.
Before I go into all the negatives of my trip, I do want to say that Barcelona is an amazingly beautiful city with a rich history. Unfortunately for me, a serious of unfortunate events made my trip there the worst part of my 2 weeks backpacking, including the time I was stuck in the cold and rain outside the Anne Frank House for 3 hours and ended up catching a terrible cold(pro-tip: bring an umbrella and/or raincoat with you everywhere friends). Anyways, here are the reasons I hated Barcelona so that you can hopefully avoid my mistakes! Stay tuned to the end of the post and you will be rewarded with some of the amazing photos I was able to take!
Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am the kind of person who does a lot of research and planning before going somewhere new, which is why I was surprised that, upon arriving in Barcelona, I knew very little about the important information you need to make your trip enjoyable. Upon arriving, I discovered that most museums are closed on Mondays, which was my first day there. In addition, I decided to get the Barcelona card because it gave discounts to museums and free public transport, but what they don't tell you is that you have to buy attraction tickets at the locations in order to get the discount. This normally would not be a problem, but do to certain rules(see reason #2) it posed a major issue. The Barcelona Card was essentially worthless to us on our trip so I advise against getting it. If I had known it was useless aside from the transport pass it came with, I would have just bought a transport pass and saved myself some serious $$$.
In addition to the lack of information I found when looking into attractions, my friend and I also had a lot of issues finding places to eat. I am not sure if it was where we stayed(near Plaza de catalunya) or just our bad luck but we seemed surrounded by shopping but nnot a lot of restaurants and the ones we found were super touristy. We tried asking our hostel about places to eat and they just pointed outside and said "there is food everywhere" which was less than helpful. If you are the type who prefers more local places and less touristy, definitely look into the area you are staying in before you arrive because otherwise you may get unlucky like us.
After finding out that all the museums were closed on mondays and not being able to get into Parc Guell(more on that later) we ended up at the aquarium, which was actually pretty cool.
One last little rant on the "Lack of Information" point is the hostel we stayed in. Online, it looked like a normal hostel, nothing too nice but decent and the reviews were all positive. In person was a very different story. Itwas up 2 flights of stairs with an elevator you needed a key to access, it was further from the Plaza de catalunya than the website implied, the rooms smelled strongly of feet and weed and the bathroom situation was its own nightmare. I am not sure what rooms/bathroom they took photos of for the website, but it was not the ones we used. Be sure to research your hostel carefully if you are picky and if this sounds like an unpleasant experience, avoid The Hipstel at all costs.
View of Barcelona from the National Art Museum of Catalunya. The one good part of our BCN card was the transport pass that got us to all corners of the city.
Okay back to the negatives(sorry guys). The BIGGEST problem I had with my trip was that I was unaware you had to buy tickets to some of the biggest attractions(specifically Parc Guell and la Sagrada Familia) for a specific time slot and time slots sell out quickly. As a result, we wasted almost our entire first day in Barcelona on a trip up to Parc Guell only to discover they had sold all the tickets to the Monumental zone(aka the part with all the things you go to the park to see) for that day and we would have to come back the next day. This meant that on our second day we would be going from one side of the city to the other and wasting a lot of time on public transit.
A really cool candid of me from up near the National Art Museum.While I may have hated Barcelona, I have to admit it was beautiful.
This rule also prevented me from seeing the inside of La Sagrada Familia because it was something I planned to see my last day before flying out that night. I looked on the website ahead of time to check that I wouldn't encounter the same issue and could not find anything about it and as a result, got there too late to see it before I left. One of the reasons this was such a big issue for us was that we were dumb enough to buy the Barcelona Card and therefore couldn't buy our tickets for attractions online and still get the discount from our card. So even after we had the issue at Parc Guell, there was nothing that could be done to avoid the same problem at La Sagrada Familia unless we wanted to forfeit the discount from our BCN card(we were getting pretty poor at this point so we were trying to use that discount for all it was worth). We stupidly decided to risk it and missed our chance to see the inside of the La Sagrada Familia, which sealed the deal for us on Barcelona being a lost cause.
My friend and I smiling before we found out we wouldn't get to go inside La Sagrada Familia.
When I visited Madrid a few years back, one of the best parts of the trip was being able to go to a bar, buy a beer or glass of wine and being given an entire plate of tapas(finger food appetizers) to enjoy with my drink. In Barcelona, you do not get this and you actually have to order individual tapas items and things can get a bit pricey with multiple items and a drink. I really wish someone had told me about this in advance because tapas were probably my favorite part of my visit to Madrid to and in Barcelona they can get pretty pricey, not to mention many of the restaurants in the area I was in were VERY touristy and didn't seem authentic at all.
On top of the inauthentic and expensive tapas, my friend and I had a lot of issues finding places to eat. Shopping? EVERYWHERE. Food? Nowhere to be found. Restaurants had seemingly weird hours and were very sporadically placed meaning we often settled for overpriced touristy places. The one redeeming fact about our hostel was that it had dinners available nightly for only 5 euros and they were usually delicious, but served on the later side(9PM).
DO A LOT OF RESEARCH. I cannot stress this enough because I really think I was too lax in my planning. Know the area you are staying in, look in detail at your accommodation, and research the places you want to visit. As tacky as it can seem, I recommend investing in a Travel Guide for your planning because they really do have a TON of important and useful information.
Do NOT buy the Barcelona Card. This was a massive waste of money and note worth the "discounts" it gave us. 10/10 would not recommend.
Buy a Transit Pass. The buses and metro are great for getting around the city and since many of the sites are very spread out this is 100% necessary.
Invest in great walking shoes. We did so much walking in Barcelona and especially in Parc Guell, its not just flat land so your feet will hate you if you don't wear good shoes. I personally wore my Vibrams and TOMS while there and they saved me a lot of pain.
Temper your expectations. I think a big part of our bad experience was that both my friend and I had built up Barcelona in our minds to be this AMAZING place and then when things started going wrong it was really hard to accept that the city wasn't perfect. Be sure you are realistic in your expectations of every place you visit.
It may have taken us two days to get into the Monumental zone, but at least we got good photos!
What have been some cities you thought you would love but hated? Leave a comment and let me know, but hopefully no one else has as bad a time as my friend and I did in Barcelona. The city is definitely beautiful and really doesn't deserve all the negativity I have given it.
From one misguided millennial to the world, this has been my take on Barcelona.
P.S.- If you like following along with my adventures and want more great content, check me out on Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest.
I'm spanish and if you want a true authentic experience, REAL tapas and amazing flamenco you need to visit Seville in the south of Spain. That is the heart of Spain.
I really enjoyed reading this post! I'm in the same boat as you. In my case, the problem with Barcelona was having really high expectations. I studied abroad in the Basque country, and all the other students were raving about Barcelona.
I was so excited to visit, but when I got to Barcelona I thought it was boring, to be honest. Other than the Gaudi architecture, I don't see the appeal of this city. The beach is overcrowded and dirty. Everything is so catered to tourists that it doesn't even feel like Spain.
My second visit to Barcelona was better. I did a 3-hour walking tour and visited La Sagrada Familia. Still, I think Barcelona is way overhyped. On the other hand, I lived in Madrid for a year and loved it!
YES! I totally agree with all of this! I had friends that hyped it up so much that I was just disappointed with everything from the food to the overall feel of the city.
