The motor vehicle excise tax is imposed on every motor vehicle and trailer registered in Massachusetts. The tax is imposed for the privilege of using the roadways and for registering a motor vehicle. The registration process of a motor vehicle automatically triggers the assessment of the excise.
The information on all excise tax bills comes directly and exclusively from the information your insurance company or agent supplies to the Registry of Motor Vehicles. The Town of Nahant receives the bills via a tape from the Registry and mails and collects the tax. We do not assess the tax or compile the information on your bills.
Motor Vehicle Excise Tax bills are issued on a calendar-year basis. The bill is owed to the community where the vehicle or trailer was garaged as of January 1. The address of the registrant is based upon the registration address provided by the owner to the Registry of Motor Vehicles.
Vehicles registered for a portion of a calendar year are eligible for proration based upon whole months. For new registrations, this occurs automatically. For cancelled or changed registrations, it is up to the owner to notify the Board of Assessors. Once issued, a bill cannot be abated below $5.00 unless the registration date as of January 1 was erroneous; e.g., wrong place of garaging or ownership, or plate.
A plate return receipt or insurance termination notice is normally sufficient documentation for the Board of Assessors. When existing plates are transferred to a new vehicle, a copy of the new registration provides adequate evidence.
Owners of vehicles registered as of January 1 can expect to receive a bill by late February or early March. A new registration normally produces a bill 2 to 3 months afterwards.
The most common source of taxpayer confusion arises when a vehicle is registered late in the calendar year. This generates a tax bill early in the next calendar year, which may be followed soon thereafter by a full year bill for the new calendar year. Each bill identifies the year prominently. Taxpayers should make note of the year of the bill when paying an excise tax.
The most common reason for a tax bill to be issued for a vehicle no longer on the road is the failure of the owner to return the plates to the Registry of Motor Vehicles as required. If a vehicle no longer on the road retains the plate registration, the bill may not be abated until it is sold or junked.
Questions concerning tax payments should be addressed to the Collector at (781) 581-0018.
Questions concerning tax errors, valuations, over-valuations or exemptions must be addressed to the Assessor's Office at (781) 581-0212.

Article Date: 29 Dec 2020
Author: Selina Lum
In September, former foreign domestic worker Parti Liyani became a household name when she was acquitted of stealing from her wealthy and powerful employer.
She also became a symbol of perceived injustice in the way the less advantaged were treated in the legal system.
The case, which bore the hallmarks of a David and Goliath story, gained prominence as Singaporeans grappled with the question of whether a corporate bigwig held sway over how his maid was investigated and prosecuted.
It snowballed from a seemingly simple case of theft into a marathon nine-hour parliamentary debate last month about the fairness of the criminal justice system.
Ms Parti used to work for former Changi Airport Group chairman Liew Mun Leong, who was also on the board of government-linked entities such as infrastructure consultancy Surbana Jurong and Temasek Foundation.
In October 2016, Mr Liew decided to terminate her employment while he was overseas.
On Oct 28, 2016, his son Karl told Ms Parti that she was fired. Given two hours to pack, she uttered a threat to lodge a complaint with the Manpower Ministry.
Two days later, while she was back in Indonesia, Mr Liew Mun Leong and his son made a police report after the family opened the three boxes that the younger man had agreed to ship to her.
Ms Parti was arrested after she returned to Singapore in December that year.
She was housed by non-governmental organisation Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics (Home), which sought legal representation for her.
Lawyer Anil Balchandani agreed to act for Ms Parti under the Law Society's Criminal Legal Aid Scheme.
Charged with stealing more than $50,000 worth of items, including luxury watches and brand-name bags, Ms Parti fought the charges in a State Courts trial that stretched over more than 20 days.
She contended that some of the items were found in the trash, some were bought by her and some were given to her.
District Judge Olivia Low did not completely accept the testimony of Karl Liew, who claimed that items such as women's clothes belonged to him. But she found that the prosecution had proved its case beyond reasonable doubt, and convicted Ms Parti of stealing $34,000 worth of items.
Ms Parti appealed to the High Court. In September, Justice Chan Seng Onn acquitted her of all four charges after concluding that the convictions were unsafe.
Among other things, he found that the police's delay in visiting the crime scene created a reasonable doubt as to whether the photographs taken by investigators some five weeks later accurately documented the items in the boxes.
He also singled out Karl Liew for his "dishonesty" on the stand.
The circumstances of the case sparked a public outcry, with online chatter dwelling on whether Mr Liew Mun Leong's social status had biased the initial direction of the case.
Less than a week after Ms Parti's acquittal, Mr Liew announced his decision to step down from his various positions. He said he respected the court's decision but stressed he made a police report because he believed it was his civic duty to report suspicions of wrongdoing .
On Nov 4, Law and Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam spoke in Parliament for more than two hours on the case, providing new information that emerged from an internal review.
He categorically said there was no attempt by anyone to exert influence on the investigators or prosecutors - the Liews' police report was handled as a routine theft case.
There was also sufficient evidence and good reasons to prosecute Ms Parti, as she had admitted to taking some items of clothing without permission, among other things, he added.
The minister also said lapses were found in the investigation process, and disciplinary action was being taken against the officer concerned and his supervisor.
The House also debated a motion put forward by Workers' Party chairman Sylvia Lim on improving the criminal justice system after Mr Shanmugam's statement.
Karl Liew was charged in court the next day with perjury and furnishing false information to the police, offences that carry possible jail terms.
Ms Parti's four-year legal saga is far from over, although she is now the one in the driver's seat. The two prosecutors who handled her trial are now the subject of unprecedented disciplinary proceedings against legal service officers.
Her complaint of misconduct centred on how they carried out a demonstration of a faulty DVD player during the court trial.
Ms Parti is also seeking compensation from the Attorney-General's Chambers for alleged "frivolous or vexatious" prosecution, eschewing the option of approaching the Liews to recoup four years of salary.
Mr Balchandani made it clear that she was not merely after monetary compensation, but was seeking "a nominal amount to show that something went wrong".

Skulltag Editing via DeePsea, teh Tutorial!!!!
I know you probably tried to edit st with deepsea before but then your brain goes WTF?! Well folks, Follow these steps and you'll be able to map in no time.
First things first, if you dont have deepsea, try going here.
Now, you have to fix your "things" menu so that it wont be screwed up. Try getting it here. Put the opt file into the deepsea directory.
Now it's time to fix those textures! All you have to do is load up doom2.wad and start editing a new map.
All set! If you want to edit a ctf level look for carn's tut in the skulltag forum.
Blackfish, are you blind or something, there is already tutorials like that in the skulltag forum, iirc.
There's no tutorial on how to edit via deepsea. A new opt file was just released and that's it.
But this does really belong in the Skulltag forum.
It is, you left nut.
Well, so it is. Before it wasn't. I hadn't noticed it was moved.
Hmm, a thread about editing Skulltag... I don't really see why it belongs in one thread over another.


I was searching for a Property and found this listing (MLS® #1320286). Please send me more information regarding 4904 Allison Cv, Austin, TX, 78741. Thank you!
I'd like to request a showing of 4904 Allison Cv, Austin, TX, 78741 (MLS® #1320286). Thank you!

Q: Questions about infinite dimensional normed spaces Problem
Show that if $X$ is an infinite-dimensional normed vector space, then there is a sequence $\{x_n\}$ such that $\|x_n\|=1,\|x_n-x_m\|=1\ (n\neq m)$.
My view
I have confirmed that the following two theorems hold.
Theorem1:If $M$ be a close subspace of a normed vector space $X$ which is $X\neq M$, then for all $\varepsilon>0$ there is $u_{\varepsilon}\in X$ such that $\|u_{\varepsilon}\|=1,d(u,M)>1-\varepsilon$.
Theorem2:By Theorem 1, if $M$ is finite dimensional, we can get $u_0\in X$ such that $\|u_0\|=1,d(u_0,M)\geq1$.
I think I will use these theorems, but I can't think of a specific way to do it.
Also, from a geometric point of view, if $X$ is one-dimensional (line), we can get $x_1\in X$ where $\|x_1\|=1$.
If $X$ is two-dimensional (plane), then by drawing an equilateral triangle with one point at the origin, we can obtain $x_1,x_2\in X$ such that $\|x_i\|=1\ (i=1,2),\|x_1-x_2\|=1$.
Furthermore, if $X$ is three-dimensional (space), by considering a regular square pyramid with a single point at the origin, we can obtain $x_1,x_2,x_3\in X$ such that $\|x_i\|=1\ (i=1,2,3),\|x_i-x_j\|=1\ (i\neq j)$.
I was wondering if I could do the same thing in higher dimensions, so that I could do the same thing in infinite dimensional space, but it didn't work.
Postscript (Nov. 11, 2021)
I still haven't solved this problem yet, so I'll describe another method that I've newly thought of.
My view (New)
Take $x_1\in X$ such that $\|x_1\|=1$, and let $M_1$ be a finite-dimensional subspace of $X$ spaned by $x_1$.
From Theorem 2, we obtain $x_2\in X$ such that $\|x_2\|=1$ and $d(x_2,M_1)\geq 1$.
Next, let $M_2$ be a finite dimensional subspace of $X$ spaned by $x_1$ and $x_2$. From Theorem 2, we obtain $x_3\in X$ such that $\|x_3\|=1$ and $d(x_3,M_2)\geq 1$.
Continuing this work, let $M_n$ be a finite dimensional subspace of $X$ spaned by $x_1,\cdots,x_n$. From Theorem 2, we obtain $X_{n+1}\in X$ such that $\|x_{n+1}\|=1$ and $d(x_{n+1},M_n)\geq 1$.
Assume that this task is completed in a finite number of times. In this case, $X$ is a finite dimensional space, which is a contradiction. Therefore, this work can be done infinitely many times.
In this case, $\{x_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ satisfies $\|x_n\|=1\ (n=1,2,\cdots)$, and from $d(x_{n+1},M_n)\geq 1$, we can say $1\leq\|x_n-x_m\|$ for $n\neq m$.
My Question
Now if I can show that $\|x_n-x_m\|\leq 1\ (n\neq m)$, I think the proof is done.
Do you have any better ideas?

A: If you construct a sequence in the way you've described in your postscript, there is no reason that it would have to be be the case that $||x_n - x_m|| = 1$ for all $m \neq n$.  In fact, most such sequences do not have this property.
Since you're having trouble with the logical setup of the proof, let's actually specify in detail how you could logically establish that such a sequence exists.

First of all, it's going to be easier to think about sets  than sequences here.  The ordering isn't really important, so it's enough to figure out what's happening for subsets $S \subset X$ of unit vectors such that
\begin{equation}
||s|| = ||s - t|| = 1 \text{ for each } s \neq t \in S \qquad (\dagger)
\end{equation}
Sets satisfying $(\dagger)$ certainly exist: any singleton $\{x\}$ where $x$ is a unit vector is an example, as is the empty set.  Moreover, if I have an ascending chain $S_1 \subset S_2 \subset \cdots$ of sets satisfying $(\dagger)$ then the union $S = \bigcup S_i$ of this chain satisfies $(\dagger)$.  So it follows by Zorn's lemma that there exist maximal sets satisfying condition $(\dagger)$.
Take a maximal set satisfying  $(\dagger)$.  This set must either be finite or infinite.  If it's infinite, then we're done, because all we wanted was to show that there was at least one infinite set satisfying $(\dagger)$.  (Actually we wanted an infinite sequence, but it's easy enough to produce an infinite sequence from an infinite set by just picking elements arbitrarily.)
So we need to show that a finite set satisfying $(\dagger)$ cannot be maximal among all sets satisfying $(\dagger)$.  Unpacking this, what it says is:

Suppose we have a finite subset $\{x_1, \ldots, x_n\} \subset X$ such that $||x_i|| = ||x_i - x_j|| = 1$ for all $i \neq j$.  We wish to show that there exists $y \in X$ with $||y|| = ||y - x_i|| = 1$ for all $i$.

Note that everything we've said above has just been establishing the logical structure of a proof.  We haven't done anything to do with normed vector spaces at all yet.  Since that's the subject of your class, I'll leave that part up to you.
(By the way, some people might worry whether the inclusion of Zorn's lemma above might be overkill.  I suspect not, because we need Zorn's lemma for closely related things like proving that every vector space has a basis.  We can presumably get along with the weaker version of Zorn's lemma equivalent to countable choice here, since we are only trying to find infinite sequences, as opposed to infinte sets spanning $X$.
Also, I think students may sometimes get a misleading impression that whether we're using the axiom of choice is something that's important to worry about all the time.  It's not, and in fact I suspect that maybe 50% of Fields medalists probably couldn't tell you the ZF axioms off the tops of their heads.  Foundations are roughly as important to mathematics as electricity and magnetism are to computer science, which is to say that they're not important at all unless you're the 1 person out of 100 who happens to do work that deals with them.)

"There's propaganda to paint the previous administration or any critic or opposition member as 'yellow,' and that we all have the same faces. Let's not be taken in by such propaganda," he added.
Alejano shared that there is no conflict between him and Roxas.
As reported by the Inquirer (author DJ Yap), Caloocan Rep. Edgar Erice, the campaign manager of Roxas, claimed that the former Interior Secretary regretted wearing yellow and being identified with former Pres. Noynoy Aquino during the 2016 polls.
"It was a conscious decision [to change colors] because one mistake [Roxas] made in 2016 was acting like Robin to [Aquino's] Batman...and Robin will never be Batman," Erice said.

Looking further into it, this is somehow caused by changes to the nbd module. Before 4.8 it was actually not creating any uevents on its own. Still there were events to be seen. With 4.8 they code changed to generate a change event, but also will delay the capacity change until the moment the socket is connected. And this seems to prevent whatever is otherwise producing the change event and triggering a partition scan. The nbd driver itself does not do that (like for example the loop driver does). So it could be that this had ever worked only because of the mysterious helper.


The environment of a nuclear reactor is hostile and the materials used have to withstand harsh and corrosive working conditions. Nickel alloy X-750 has been extensively used in the nuclear industry for the last 30 years. The good corrosion properties and the high strength at elevated temperatures made this material a good choice for springs, bolts, guide pins and spacer grids in boiling water reactors (BWRs). The focus of this thesis is on the spacer grid corrosion. A spacer grid is a metal lattice that holds the nuclear fuel in position. It is critical to limit the corrosion of the spacer grids so that the fuel is held stable for safety purposes and also since corrosion and dissolution of the alloy can lead to spread of radiation in the closed water system and consequently an increased risk of radiation exposure for maintenance workers at nuclear plants. A BWR operates at 286°C under a pressure of 70 bar, and the radiation induces radiolysis of the water, making it corrosive. Significant corrosion of alloy X-750 has been observed under these conditions. In order to study the high temperature water corrosion of alloy X-750, this aggressive environment was simulated in an autoclave system. In this thesis, the connection between the corrosion performance and the effect of pretreatments and the impact of iron content of the alloy is studied. The evolution of the oxide growth was studied by exposing the specimens in a temporal range from 2 h to 840 h. The samples have been studied with a set of complementary characterization techniques (mainly electron microscopy, but also X-ray diffraction and atom probe tomography), and focused ion beam milling has been used for sample preparation. Pre-oxidation treatment results in the formation of a thin multi-layer oxide, which improves the corrosion properties of the alloy, leading to contained dissolution of the metal. The oxide formed is composed of an outer layer of trevorite (NiFe2O4), a Cr-rich middle layer which is Ni-chromite in the outer part and chromia with some titania in the inner part. Of these oxides only trevorite is stable in BWR water and when comparing the 5 wt% Fe alloy with 8 wt% Fe, the latter performs better (i.e. dissolves and oxidizes less) as a result of a higher quality (thicker and compact) trevorite layer created by pre-oxidation. Since the pre-oxide layer could be lost during operation, it is important to know what will happen to the corrosion of alloy X-750 in this condition. In order to answer this question, the oxide evolution of non-pre-oxidized alloy X-750 has also been studied by comparing samples exposed for different times. During exposures in an autoclave, trevorite layer consisting of blocky crystals forms on the surface by re-precipitation of the dissolved metal. At the same time underlying metal is oxidized, forming a nano-grained and porous oxide layer. It has been shown that the dissolution rate and the growth rate of the oxides decrease with time, indicating that the formed oxides offer some degree of protection. Moreover, the alloy with higher Fe content corrodes less when exposed to longer exposure time, which makes it a preferable candidate for reactor operations. This thesis constitutes a step on the way to understand BWR corrosion of alloy X-750, which eventually will make it possible to develop improved spacer grid materials.

QIANG, CAI, GUO - FLYING DRAGON IN THE HEAVENS.
Illustrations: 16 Color Illustrations. 10 B&W Illustrations.
Biblio/Bio: Bibl. Bio. Cat. of exh.
The exhibition consists of several individual but interrelated elements. The dragon - the most important of four heavenly creatures in Chinese mythology and one of the most widely and variously used Chinese symbols - is a figure that recurs throughout this exhibition project. It appears in different shapes, indoors and well as outdoors. Most spectacularly, there is a gigantic flying kite, in the shape of a dragon, from the lawn of the museum's sculpture park. Before the dragon kite is launched, it is fitted with gunpowder, which at a given time is ignited and explodes, transforming the dragon into a crackling, fire-breathing creature. A portfolio of sixteen separate photos from the Qiang exhibit accompany this book.

Q: Date intervals changed on the 15th of a month I'm looking for a way to have my sql query change the dates in my query on the 15th of every month so my data pulls have a "rolling 12 months".  For example, right now, my query pulls the dates (YYYYQMM) between 2018411 and 2019410.  I have it hard coded so it looks like this:
Select *
From Table
WHERE Spend_Period_YYYYQMM >= 2018411 and Spend_Period_YYYYQMM <= 2019410

I would like to have a solution that on Dec 15th it changes the dates to 2018412 and 2019411.
I have a solution to change the dates every month like below but would like the dates to change on the 15th:
Spend_Period_YYYYQMM between to_char(date(current_date -  cast('13 month' as interval)),'YYYYQMM')
                         and to_char(date(current_date -  cast('2 month' as interval)),'YYYYQMM')

How should I got about it

A: We can use some CASE clauses and the EOMONTH function along with GetDate() to get your desired range.

DECLARE @date DATETIME = GETDATE();
select case
    when day(@date) <= 14
        then EOMONTH(@date, -13)
    when day(@date) >= 15
        then EOMONTH(@date, -12)
    end as RollingYearBegin
    ,case
    when day(@date) <= 14
        then EOMONTH(@date, -2)
    when day(@date) >= 15
        then EOMONTH(@date, -1)
    end as RollingYearEnd
into #RollingYear

Then if you need the values formatted in that specific way when you call them, you could either complicate that temp table above a bit more, or just make another little table

    Select cast(concat(datepart(yyyy,RollingYearBegin),  datepart(q,RollingYearBegin), datepart(MM,RollingYearBegin)) as bigint) as YearBegin
,cast(concat(datepart(yyyy,RollingYearEnd),  datepart(q,RollingYearEnd), datepart(MM,RollingYearEnd)) as bigint) as YearEnd
into #YYYYQMM
From #RollingYear

Then, in your query, it would be:
Select *
From Table
WHERE Spend_Period_YYYYQMM BETWEEN (Select YearBegin from #YYYYQMM) AND (Select YearEnd from #YYYYQMM)

"Skim Foam Bone Broth "
If you Love Skim Foam Bone Broth then you are at the right place!!
Skim Foam Bone Broth is made from pet bones as well as connective cells-- usually cattle, poultry, or fish-- that have been steamed into a broth and slow simmered for 10 to greater than 20 hours with natural herbs, vegetables, and flavors. So why is this apparently straightforward fluid something you would certainly wish to consume alcohol on a daily basis Skim Foam Bone Broth ?
Also our hunter-gatherer forefathers realized that alcohol consumption Skim Foam Bone Broth was like striking nutritional gold, as its earliest version go back over 2,500 years. Throwing away anything edible was out of the inquiry back then, so animal hooves, knuckles, bones, and various other connective cells never went to squander. Bone broth has a rich history of being made use of in standard Chinese medication as a digestive restorative, blood builder, and kidney strengthener because of the high collagen content, bioavailable minerals, anti-inflammatory amino acids, and healing compounds that can just be discovered in bones and also connective cells Skim Foam Bone Broth.
See as star health and wellness instructor, Thomas DeLauer damages down the ins and also outs of what bone broth really is. In just two mins, he'll discuss what bone broth is and also what it can do for your digestive tract, joint, and skin health and wellness Skim Foam Bone Broth.
Some telephone call Skim Foam Bone Broth meat water. We call it liquid gold.
What makes this things so unique? The short response is collagen. Bones and connective cells are the just real dietary resources of type II collagen-- a protein that's understood for keeping skin smooth and also supple and also teeth and joints healthy, along with touting loads of various other wellness advantages.
Along with collagen, bones are also filled with numerous anti-inflammatory amino acids, minerals, and also substances that can help quicken your body's natural recovery procedures from points like sporting activities injuries, arthritis, or leaky gut.
So, these "scraps" that the majority of us generally throw in the trash are major dietary powerhouses. However when was the last time you chowed down on a piece of cow's knuckle? Or snacked on an ox tail? We'll presume the answer is never ever.
Considering that we do not eat bones in their whole type, cooking them right into a broth that's simmered for 10 to 20 hours (or even more) is the very best means to launch their effective nutrients, and experience an entire new level of health and wellness.
NEED A FAST DESCRIPTION ON WHAT EXACTLY IS SKIM FOAM BONE BROTH ?
See as Celebrity Health And Wellness Instructor, Thomas DeLauer breaks down the ins and also outs of what bone broth truly is. In just 2 mins, he'll discuss what bone broth is and what it can do for your gut, joint, as well as skin health skim foam bone broth.
Bone broth has an abundant history of being used as a digestive system restorative, specifically in standard Chinese medication some 2,500 years earlier. Today, it is just one of the leading suggested foods for enhancing signs and symptoms of chronic gastrointestinal problems, such as Irritable Digestive Tract Disorder (IBS), Crohn's illness, and also colitis.
The factor for why bone broth is so healing for the intestine returns to collagen, which develops gelatin when it's cooked down also further. Collagen and also gelatin are not just abundant in amino acids that minimize swelling in the GI tract-- such as glutamine-- they likewise have the one-of-a-kind ability to "secure as well as recover" openings in the gut lining, which can cause a condition called dripping gut syndrome.
Although research study remains in the early stages, there's evidence to reveal that dripping digestive tract is the main underlying reason for gastrointestinal conditions. It's likewise a factor to autoimmune diseases, clinical depression, brain fog, stress and anxiety, allergies, dermatitis, acne, and persistent low power. Most severe of all, dripping gut can be quiet as well as reveal no signs in the onset. It's also believed to affect over 70% of the population.
Bone broth is suggested on unique intestine healing diet regimens and also methods, like the GAPS diet plan, the SCD diet, and also the Reduced FODMAP diet plan.
Whether it's an injury, joint inflammation, or aching muscles, there's no better method to nourish your bones as well as joints than by eating even more of the nutrients currently discovered within them, consisting of hyaluronic acid, glucosamine, chondroitin, calcium, and also magnesium. Bone broth is loaded with every one of these nutrients, plus numerous amino acids that help in reducing joint discomfort and inflammation, like glycine and also proline. It's for these factors that bone broth is ending up being a go-to recuperation beverage amongst professional athletes.
A fun truth: Kettle and Fire Bone Broth was birthed since our co-founder, Nick, tore his ACL playing soccer and required a premium bone broth to assist accelerate his healing time. (You can read more on that particular right here.).
Adhering to a bone broth diet plan is excellent for sustainable weight loss. A bone broth diet includes eating Paleo for five days and fasting for two. During this time frame you'll drink bone broth regularly with a rise in usage on the fasting days.
The mix of intermittent fasting as well as bone broth accelerates fat burning through burning fat more effectively and restricting calorie intake. When doing the diet, we additionally observed a decrease in cellulite.
Fat-Burning Bone Broth Alcoholic Drink Skim Foam Bone Broth.
With just a few components, this dish is perfect for a tasty and also incredibly straightforward fat-burning mixed drink that you can whip up in a flash on hectic early mornings before work or at nights post-workout.
Also if you had never come across bone broth in the past, you have actually probably become aware of collagen, many thanks to the elegance market.
Numerous anti-aging skin care lines add collagen to their face lotions, moisturizers, and also serums (and also market them for a pretty penny). But what many individuals don't know is that collagen particles are also large to be taken in via the skin, which means these creams can not give much in the means of outcomes.
The bright side is that collagen can be soaked up via your digestive system. And due to the fact that there's a straight web link between the intestine and the skin, adding bone broth to your diet is going to have a much more powerful and also long lasting influence on the overall look and also wellness of your skin.
Let's not forget about hair and nails, which are comprised of healthy proteins like collagen. Collagen assists enhance nails, as well as motivates hair to grow in thicker, quicker, and handle a healthy and balanced sparkle. (Remember this for the following time you obtain a bad hairstyle!).
Deep, relaxing sleep is something we can all make use of a little bit more of. As a matter of fact, stats reveal the typical person obtains much less than 7 hours of sleep per evening, so it is necessary to do everything you can to make those hours count.
Bone broth is rich in glycine, an anti-inflammatory amino acid that deals with the Central Nerve System (CNS). When taken before bed as a supplement, research studies reveal glycine can improve sleep top quality and also minimize daytime drowsiness. It's much more reliable when coupled with other sleep-supportive nutrients, like calcium and magnesium.
Every one of the benefits you reap from bone broth, your expanding baby will certainly experience, too-- including healthy and balanced bones, joints, as well as a solid digestion system.
When early morning sickness hits, it can be impossible to maintain nutritious food down. Yet bone broth has a tendency to be comforting for nausea or vomiting, and is normally well tolerated. Most importantly, bone broth uses several of the nutrients you and also your growing child requirement, consisting of healthy protein, and also crucial nutrients. As an added incentive, the slow-moving simmer time of the bones makes the nutrients in bone broth highly bioavailable and also simpler to take in than a dietary supplement.
Bone broth can additionally aid increase fertility, assist you have an extra comfortable pregnancy by beneficial tight or excruciating joints, and might boost calcium levels in bust milk.
Bone broth is an outstanding source of nourishment on the Paleo diet plan, as well as is urged to consume alcohol during durations of intermittent fasting. It also fits in well with macronutrient demands on the keto diet plan, as well as may help in reducing signs and symptoms of the keto influenza.
" Not just can bone broth help you avoid keto influenza, but it's also filled with minerals that heal leaky digestive tract and lower swelling in your intestines." - Leanne Vogel, Author of The Keto Diet regimen.

Making bone broth is a simple procedure, yet one that needs a lot of time as well as persistence. If time is not on your side we can aid you out keeping that.
Bone broth is made by simmering animal bones and cells for a minimum of 10 hrs with veggies, herbs, as well as spices such as thyme, garlic, and bay leaves. Top notch bone broth starts with high-grade ingredients, making use of bones from natural grass-fed animals as well as natural vegetables. While any type of bone or ligament can be utilized, knuckles, hen feet, as well as thigh bones often tend to consist of the most collagen.
Simmering bones for an extended period of time is what offers bone broth its health benefits, extracting the amino acids, minerals, as well as collagen. This is a Pot & Fire-tested sluggish stove chicken bone broth dish that includes natural poultry bones, sea salt, fresh vegetables like celery stalks, onions, and bell peppers, as well as natural herbs like parsley, rosemary, and thyme.
Simply cooking bones (no meat) as well as water is going to be primarily flavorless. Food preparation the combination for hours on end isn't going to make it taste any type of far better.
The concept that you're obtaining tons of nutrients from the bones is a MYTH that will not die, even though it has been unmasked many times, including via lab examinations. The notion that adding vinegar to "launch" those nutrients has actually likewise been disproved. You simply wind up with a watery mess that tastes of vinegar.
Rather, purchase bones with meat on them. After that include veggies such as onions, carrots, celery, and just sufficient water to cover whatever (generally 8 or 10 mugs). Avoid the vinegar! Simmer for 3 to 4 hrs for poultry, slightly much longer for beef. Season according to preference. If you have an Instant Pot, 25 to 35 minutes has to do with right.
What you will certainly obtain with this method is a really savory broth that's most likely substantially extra nutritious-- including great deals of collagen-- and more healthful than any bone broth, and also it will taste one heck of a lot far better. You can either consume the meat and veggies (it's called SOUP) or you can strain them out as well as simply drink the broth if you like.
Inspect Ina Garten's recipe for hen broth. It's very similar to this one as well as has actually been used with minor variations by educated chefs for decades.
Regular broth and stock are simmered for a much shorter time period than bone broth, approximately 2-- 6 hrs. The expedited cooking procedure minimizes the amount of useful gelatin drawn out from the bones, minimizing its capacity to boost the body immune system, recover gastrointestinal problems, as well as decrease the signs of leaking intestine.
Before Kettle and Fire was birthed, one of our founders, Nick, tore his ACL playing soccer (ouch). His bro Justin became aware of the advantages of bone broth for injury recovery. As his schedule really did not leave much time to make bone broth from scratch, he laid out to buy a store-bought, high-grade, grass-fed bone broth, since both of their hectic schedules didn't leave much time to make the broth themselves. (You can learn more concerning our story below.).
Despite exactly how hard Justin looked, the ideal bone broth really did not exist. He searched for one that was 100 percent organic, fresh-- never frozen-- grass-fed, and also sluggish simmered (in addition to one that could be shipped without inefficient, cumbersome packaging). So, Nick and also Justin made a decision to create a high-quality bone broth on their terms, which is the dish we're proud to offer you today.
" Pot & Fire gives a nourishing, quality bone broth in a scrumptious and convenient shelf-stable layout. I enjoy always knowing that I have actually got excellent broth available, without blocking my freezer or requiring defrosting." - Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, three-time NYT Best-Selling Writer.

Breaking Up with Hover States – Hello. I'm Dave Crow. – This is my collection of thoughts on product design.
I published a satirical piece on Medium today about my breakup with hover states.
Just to be clear - I'm not saying that hover states should never be used. They're fine to accent interactions for non-touch users (button color change, menu item highlights, etc). But when a hover state is relied on for users to know something is clickable or for a major piece of functionality to work - it becomes problematic. As we move into an era where touchscreen devices are the primary way people access information, I don't think it's acceptable to have a broken experience because the designer didn't take the time to come up with a non-hover interaction. There are always other options. We just have to re-train ourselves to not rely on hover states like we used to. It's part of being in a mobile-first world.
On an unrelated note - this was my first time posting on Medium and I have to say it's really nice. The authoring experience is really clean. And I was impressed with how it cleaned up my hyphens.

Judge angrily scolds court, and it responds
9th Circuit case - Sen. Gordon Smith's brother sparks a rare review of a timber sale ruling that he said went much too far
MICHAEL MILSTEIN, The Oregonian 3/3/08
The Oregonian Staff
It was unusual enough when a high-level federal judge -- who is the brother of Sen. Gordon Smith -- blasted his own court for decimating the Northwest logging industry with "blunderbuss" rulings that went way too far.
But the extraordinary scolding by Milan D. Smith Jr. last year apparently got the attention of his fellow judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the top federal court in the West.
They recently took the unusual step of voting to have a full panel of judges reconsider the case that set Smith off. That could rein in the federal courts that Smith -- along with timber industry leaders -- blame for needlessly idling sawmills while they meddle in logging decisions beyond their expertise.
Just as the Supreme Court considers only a few important cases each year, the 9th Circuit -- the largest appeals court in the country -- picks only a handful for full reviews. So the decision to do so on an otherwise routine timber sale case suggests that Smith's wrath hit a nerve with his colleagues.
"It's very rare and unusual," said Scott Horngren, a Portland attorney involved in the case. "It's basically unheard of that they take a timber sale case."
It offers a rare glimpse at the inside politics of the court that has issued momentous decisions, involving protection of species from spotted owls and salmon, with cascading effects on the Northwest economy.
Smith, like his brother the Republican senator, is from Pendleton. He founded a law firm in Torrance, Calif., and President Bush appointed him to the appeals court in 2006, adding a new, conservative voice to the court known for its liberal bent.
"Judges are troubled when they're accused of going beyond their proper role by anybody," said Dan Rohlf, a professor at Lewis & Clark Law School and director of the school's environmental law clinic. "When the person accusing the court of that is one of its own members, they tend to be even more troubled."
The case that led to Smith's outburst is fairly routine: an attempt by environmental groups to block a U.S. Forest Service logging project known as Mission Brush in northern Idaho.
But the point Smith raised is much larger: How far should judges pry into the Forest Service's rationale for the logging? Should judges evaluate the science the Forest Service uses to back its case, or defer to the agency's expertise?
Smith contends judges have gone much too far: "If we do not grant the Forest Service appropriate deference in areas of scientific expertise, we defeat the purpose of permitting the Forest Service to make administrative decisions in the first place, and we intrude into areas far beyond our competence," he wrote.
He said he would like to let the Forest Service go ahead with the Idaho logging.
But he said his hands are tied because his own 9th Circuit ruled earlier that courts should examine the science behind Forest Service claims that the logging wouldn't harm wildlife, down to how many owl hoots scientists heard in a timber stand.
When judges intrude to such a degree, they "make it virtually impossible for logging to occur under any conditions because the Forest Service can never satisfy the constantly moving legal targets created by our circuit, sometimes out of whole cloth," Smith wrote.
When a case goes to the Court of Appeals, it's first decided by three judges. Smith was among the three who stopped the Idaho logging -- but he wrote a separate opinion explaining that he was forced to go along because he was bound by the court's earlier decisions.
The two other judges wrote a third counterargument blasting back at Smith, saying excessive logging contributed to the timber industry's decline.
The only way for the 9th Circuit to reverse the precedent set by the earlier decisions is with an "en banc" review, which can be granted only with a majority vote of the circuit's 28 active judges.
The judges voted last month to conduct an en banc review of the case involving the Idaho logging project, which would include looking at the bigger question Smith raised. A panel of 11 randomly selected judges -- which might include Smith -- will rehear the case March 27 in San Francisco.
They could side with Smith, or they could reject his reasoning and say the court has a duty to review the science behind logging decisions.
Horngren, the Portland attorney, represents logging companies and Idaho communities that have intervened in the case, supporting the Forest Service attempt to move ahead with logging. He said the direction the court takes in the case will affect how much the Forest Service can do to reduce flammable tinder.
Rohlf said the case comes at a crucial time, when environmental groups have increasingly depended on judges to stop the Bush administration from manipulating science in wildlife cases.
"This particular administration has really pushed the envelope in terms of using science for policy goals," Rohlf said. Maybe the 9th Circuit is saying, 'We have to answer criticisms, including those from within, that we are overstepping our bounds.' "

This day is especially meant to express the love to the sweethearts, better halves, and the special ones. The Valentines day is celebrated worldwide with great excitement and delightfulness. There are many different cultures and traditions of the Valentines day that varies from country to country. Let's enlighten the facts about how people celebrate Valentine around the world!
United States (US) And Canada-It is the most popular festival in the United States and it is observed as the holiday. The day is commemorated in the honor of St. Valentine and also to show the love to the heartthrobs and dear ones. Many couples exchange the gifts in the form of flowers, cards, chocolates, and candies. Sending candies is the oldest tradition with a message written on it like 'Thank You', 'Cool Dude' and 'Be Mine'. Children also celebrate this day in schools by preparing candy boxes and cards.
Britain-Britain celebrates this day in a unique day. On this day, children participate in the song competition in which they sing traditional songs related to the festival and get rewarded with the gifts. People compose new poetries to dedicate St. Valentine.

Another main ritual of the day is men send a gaekkebrev (joking letter) which consist of a poem that he has penned down by himself. But the exciting part is that the letter doesn't have the name of the sender. Instead of the name, the boys put the dots according to the number of alphabets in their names.

12.10.19: Fudging Numbers
TOPICS:addressduringfiguresincorrectMaduromigrationSpeakingtelevisedTodayused
Posted By: Giancarlo Fiorella 1 month ago
Speaking during a televised address today, Maduro used incorrect migration figures to accuse the government of Colombia of committing fraud by exaggerating the number of Venezuelans currently living in that country. According to Maduro, Colombia is doing this in order to "ask money" from the rest of the world.
During his tirade against Colombia, Maduro said that Bogota claims that "four million Venezuelans came [to Colombia]", and went on to say:
Do you know how many bus rides [Colombia] needs to reach 4 million Venezuelans? 100,000.
An extensive search of Colombian news sources and statements by government officials did not find any reference to four million Venezuelans living in the neighbouring country.
Unwittingly or otherwise, Maduro appears to have been referencing the UNHCR estimate for how many Venezuelans lived outside of the country in June of this year, a figure which the organization placed at four million.
Colombian authorities have been consistent in their estimates of Venezuelan migrants living in the country. In October of this year, Colombia's migration authority estimates that there were approximately 1.2 million Venezuelans in the country.
During the same address, Maduro also incorrectly attributed the "four million Venezuelans" estimate to a number of other countries in Latin America:
The Ecuadorian government goes out and says, "There are four million Venezuelans in Ecuador". [The government of Peru] goes out and says that they also have four [million], and [the government of Chile] says "we have four [million] here also|. In other words, we're all alone here in Venezuela. They're being ridiculous!
In fact, at no point have the governments of Ecuador, Peru, Chile, nor those of any other country claimed that they had received four million Venezuelans.
The Maduro regime has consistently downplayed the scale of the Venezuelan exodus, in part due to the fact that to admit its scope would be to admit that the regime's policies have failed so catastrophically that they have precipitated the phenomenon.

Inspection Apps Lead the Way Towards the Digital Transformation of Enterprises
Amy Groden-Morrison Aug 01, 2017
If you want a look at the kind of apps that are transforming how enterprises work, don't just look at chatbots, artificial intelligence or IoT. Instead, apps that may give companies the biggest benefits of all are inspection apps and punch list apps that help field workers accomplish important tasks, such as inspecting utility poles, managing construction projects, helping with oil exploration and much more. Accomplishing those down-to-earth tasks are in large part leading the way towards the digital transformation of enterprises.
A great example of this is the way in which energy company PG&E is using an inspection app to replace old error-prone paper processes. The app has been so successful that InformationWeek awarded it an IT Excellence Award at Interop IT recently. According to an InformationWeek article, PG&E's Mobile Asset Inspection app is saving the utility time and money, reducing errors, improving data quality, and leading the way to the company's digital transformation.
PG&E needs to inspect 2.5 million poles every 20 years, as required by federal law. The company tracks each pole's status in SAP, so that it knows when every pole must be inspected. In the past, inspectors had to drive to an office and get paper maps showing them which poles needed to be inspected each day. That was extremely ineffective, because, in the words of the article, "the next day, the inspector might be assigned to a pole that was as little as 50 feet away from a pole he inspected the previous day."
In addition, they filled out forms about the poles' status and their inspections of them on paper, which then had to be input into PG&E's system.
All that has changed with PG&E's Mobile Asset Inspection app, which is connected to SAP, a graphical information system (GIS), and Documentum enterprise applications. Now, inspectors no longer drive to the office to get paper maps and forms. Instead, the information is sent directly to the inspection app on their iPad Pros. Google Maps show best routes to the poles, and daily inspections are grouped more efficiently. Inspectors fill out electronic forms, which flow directly into SAP, reducing errors, improving data quality, and saving time and morey.
Beyond improving efficiency, the app provides data that is being used by PG&E's advanced analytics team to predict which poles are likely to fail soon. Those poles are then replaced before they fail.
Tying inspection and punch list apps to intelligent systems like this is the wave of the future, according to Jason Wong, a research director at Gartner. He told Computerworld, "Field service and sales continue to see a majority of the investment [for mobile apps] as well because of new capabilities that are still emerging — things like augmented reality, integrating list sensors and IoT, using voice and voice control. That's all new stuff that needs to be incorporated into apps."
If you're looking to build your own inspection and punch list apps, you'll find Alpha Anywhere and its low-code approach a great solution. It's ideal for building mobile-optimized forms that are at the core of the apps.
Inspection Solutions is a mobile inspection app that can be customized to serve field inspectors in any industry.

Herenton eyes those 'left out of this economy' as he launches mayoral run
Erica R. Williams
"At the end of the day, we're going back to City Hall." - Dr. Willie W. Herenton
The Staple Singers' "Let's Do It Again" resounded from a speaker before Dr. Willie W. Herenton emerged from the back of the room. He shook hands with people in the crowd as he made his way to the stage to address hundreds of attendees who'd gathered to hear him officially launch his bid for Memphis mayor.
The song that played in the background was intentional. "Let's Do It Again" has become the campaign slogan for Herenton, who previously served as the mayor of Memphis for 17 years, making him the longest serving person in that position. And he wants another shot at it. He wants to do it again.
"I met a brother on the street who asked me why I was running again at my age," the 78-year-old Herenton said to the crowd gathered inside the South Memphis venue at 3356 South Third St. on Saturday afternoon. "I told him two reasons…because I want to, and because I can."
The crowd cheered before he offered a less comical response.
"Part of why I want to run again is because I want to be aspirational and inspirational for those who have been left out of this economy."
Herenton, the first African American elected to serve as mayor, said crime, generational poverty and education are among the top focuses of his campaign platform.
"I am going to push vocational, technical education," he said. "When I went to Booker T. Washington High School, we had shop. We need to get back to that."
Herenton also touted his own 47 years in public service, including his long-running stint as mayor before he resigned in 2009. After that, he unsuccessfully challenged Congressman Steve Cohen for the 9th District seat in Congress.
Saturday, Herenton took his supporters on a "trip down memory lane."
"How many of y'all remember when I was mayor?" he asked. "We would have 3,000 kids every summer with city jobs. For many of them they got their first job when I was mayor."
Cassandra Haynes-Cowan was one of those kids. Only 15 at the time she participated in the former mayor's summer initiative, she said the experience changed her life.
"That job made me much more mature and responsible. We worked the whole summer with no problems. And it showed us that someone hadn't forgotten about us. I will always support Mayor Herenton. I know what he can do because he's done it for us."
Herenton also received an endorsement from the Memphis Police Association (MPA).
Mike Williams, MPA president, on Saturday said, "We've talked to Dr. Herenton prior to endorsing him, and he has asked, what is it going to take to restore the benefits, how can (he) help."
During the rally, Herenton spoke avidly of his desire to create a minority economically empowered city, and he didn't mince words when calling out his opponents.
"This current administration wants to build buildings, we want to build families," he said referring to incumbent mayor, Jim Strickland, who is running for a second term. "When we look at this economy. There is no way Memphis can be a thriving metropolis when 40 percent of the 60-percent majority is living in poverty. We can't have two Memphis'.
As for his other high-profile challenger, Shelby County Commissioner Tami Sawyer, who is leading her campaign with the slogan, "We can't Wait," Herenton had this to say.
"When you talk about proven leadership…we're not talking about novices. We're not talking about people who are opportunists. We're not talking about people who say they can't wait. Those that say they can't wait – they are going to wait."
Sawyer, who officially announced her run for mayor in March, is among a new generation of grassroots activists. She organized the first Black Lives Matter protest in Memphis and led the #takemdown901 protest that demanded the removal of Confederate statues in local city parks.
Not discrediting the need for a new generation of leaders, Herenton said it's one of the reasons he feels compelled to give it one more go as mayor.
"We must prepare the platform for the next generation," he said. "I didn't do that when I was mayor and that's why we have a vacuum in leadership. But when I go back, part of our agenda is to plant the seeds and to grow the next generation of leaders."
Herenton said he's confident that he's the "best candidate for the job", and even more certain that the people of Memphis will vote him back in office in October.
"At the end of the day, we're going back to City Hall."
The city's municipal election is October 3. Lemichael Wilson, a small business owner, has also specified that he will run.
