LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com/AP) — A Los Angeles City Council gave its support Friday to a possible city bid to host the 2024 Summer Olympic Games.
The move by the Ad Hoc Committee on the 2024 Summer Olympics followed a discussion about a joinder agreement that city officials say is needed for the U.S. Olympics Committee (USOC) to submit Los Angeles to the International Olympics Committee (IOC) as its bid city.
In the event the USOC chooses Los Angeles as the nation's bid city, the agreement would serve as a commitment by city leaders that they will pursue the Games, according to city officials.
The issue was initially expected to go to the full council for a vote later Friday morning, but now a vote has been postponed until Tuesday, KNX 1070's Claudia Peschiutta reported.
The City Council is considering giving Mayor Eric Garcetti authority to execute agreements linked to the bid, a steppingstone toward entering the international competition for the Games.
The meeting comes in the wake of a preliminary report from the Chief Administrative Officer and Chief Legislative Analyst which found that the cost of acquiring land and building an Olympic Village for athletes near downtown Los Angeles "may significantly exceed" the projected $1 billion cost.
Several issues will be under consideration at Friday's meeting, including whether the budget accurately estimates the potential costs, as well as a request by the USOC and the IOC that the city agree to pay for any cost overruns.
Speaking on KNX 1070 NEWSRADIO's "Ask The Mayor" segment Thursday, Garcetti said he's confident the city would make money from hosting the Olympics.
"L.A. knows how to run an Olympics, we know how to do it with profit, and I'm less concerned about overruns than what we do with the profits," the mayor said.
The vast majority of L.A. facilities submitted for potential use during the Olympics have either been built since 1984 or would be done regardless of any IOC bid, Garcetti added.
Earlier this week, LA24 officials estimated the cost of hosting the 2024 Olympics in Los Angeles would be $4.1 billion, or $4.6 billion after a $400 million contingency fund and insurance are included.
The USOC last month cut ties with Boston, which was initially selected as the U.S. contender. With Los Angeles the likely stand-in, the USOC faces a Sept. 15 deadline to enter a bid.

I was thinking of Pagsulat a Sherlock tagahanga novel for the fun of it. Any helpful suggestions?
Is there a deleted scene somewhere between where Holmes chases after Irene and his fight with Blackwood on the bridge? Because where was Watson when Moriarty estola part of the machine and how did Blackwood get a hold of Watsons cane?
Watson muttered something under his breath. Sherlock didn't bother to decode it, knowing it was most likely another witty comment of their situation.

Conference hotel and study centre Drienerburght
CONFERENCE HOTEL AND STUDY CENTRE DE DRIENERBURGHT
As you probably already know, entrepreneurship and the University of Twente go together like hand in glove. But did you also know that the Drienerburght Conference Hotel came about as a direct result of this remarkable pairing? Here is the story of how the Drienerburght rose up from the ground – a tale of battles with bureaucrats in The Hague.
The year was 1987 and in the field of higher education, no university had ever invested independently in real estate, such as building a conference hotel, or ever used government land to set such a strong example of entrepreneurship. The regulations in force at the time would not allow for this. And indeed, the officials at the education department wanted to put a stop to this investment project and halt the construction of the new hotel. So how did the University of Twente get away with it? At the opening of the hotel, Roel in 't Veld, Director General for Higher Education and Scientific Research at the Ministry of Education, described it like this: 'The reason I'm here today to open this building is that I neglected to answer your letter.'
So what happened exactly? The campus and all its real estate were owned by the government until the early 2000s. The Real Estate Department of the Ministry of Education dealt with all investments in university campuses. And for a campus university like the University of Twente, with accommodation for over 2,000 students and staff and many sports and cultural facilities, that was a big challenge. Particularly because the Department's main focus was on education and research. Harry van den Kroonenberg, the Rector Magnificus who conceived the concept of the entrepreneurial university, also came up with a clever ruse. The university set up the Technopolis Twente Foundation. The foundation enabled the university to borrow, invest and earn money free of 'interference' from the ministry in The Hague. For the Drienerburght project, the University of Twente would receive 4 million guilders from the Dutch Municipal Bank plus an investment write-down of half a million guilders. That meant the university only needed to put up another 1.3 million guilders itself.
The officials at the ministry were not pleased when they got wind of the project, and threatened to block its progress. But the Director-General at the ministry, Roel In 't Veld, became involved, telling his astonished officials that he would do nothing to stand in the way of Twente's entrepreneurial spirit. In 't Veld was a strong proponent of hands-off management, and had long been allowing universities to push the boundaries. More autonomy for universities was fully consistent with his policy memorandum on Higher Education, Autonomy and Quality, which he had published previously, even though the project contravened the regulations actually in force at the time. The university's letter defending the construction of Technopolis therefore remained formally unanswered, deliberately – at the request of In 't Veld. And that paved the way for the construction of the Drienerburght.
It is particularly appropriate that we recalled this story in Book Week 2020. The theme for this year's book week is 'Rebels and Lateral Thinkers'. This description fits Harry van den Kroonenberg right down to the ground. 'The era of the entrepreneurial university has begun,' Van den Kroonenberg said provocatively at the opening of the hotel in 1987, knowing that In 't Veld would hear these words. He wanted autonomy for the university – independence from the business community and also free of interference by bureaucrats in The Hague. A few months later, at the opening of the academic year, he allowed himself one more swipe at the government: 'It's raining bureaucrats, there are too many of them.'

Billie Lee Turner II delivered the 2009 Rachel Carson Lecture, "Land Architecture, Sustainability and the Southern Yucatán," on Jan. 28, 2009 in the Lincoln Room of the Kellogg Center.
Turner is the first Gilbert F. White Chair in Environment and Society in the School of Geographical Sciences at Arizona State University. For 20 years he taught at Clark University where he was the Milton P. & Alice C. Higgins Professor of Environment and Society and director of the Graduate School of Geography.
Turner's contributions to knowledge have evolved from an interest in human impacts on the natural world. His early study was on the borders of archaeology and geography -- the pre-Hispanic agricultural systems of the Maya in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. This geographical and archaeological work fueled an interest in agricultural pathways and livelihoods more generally, particularly patterns of agricultural intensification. As an authority on agricultural systems, Turner produced several influential texts on the theory of agrarian change.
His interest in specific impacts of populations and societies on land use change and alterations in land cover led to a return to fieldwork in Central America in the 1990s working with a number of doctoral students and supported by several large research grants.He also has promoted the emerging field of sustainability science, an emerging focus at Arizona State University. His exceptional interdisciplinary research and other activities have been recognized by many prestigious honors and awards, including membership in the National Academy of Sciences.

She is 2 - 3 years old and very wonderful!
Leina loves to cuddle and is very affectionate.
She is good with other dogs but can be a little dominant. She loves people and children. She is beautiful! A perfect companion!


On this week's show, Magicka: Wizard Wars is headed to launch with a fully revamped cash shop, Jason gives developers advice on revealing their monetization plans, and Rift and ArcheAge both get updates. All that and more on this week's Free to Play Cast!
I personaly have not played archeaeg. Why ? well I really liked the game when it was in development, but when they abandoned it, it made the game look weak sort of and i thought it will launch and soon will close its doors and what pretty much seemd so for a long time cause of the bad news of it evry week. I never want to play a game that i chant even finish, but now it dosent seem to be the case of archeaeg anymore. The thing keeping me from playing is the bad things still continuing. Specifficly the land grabbing, wold love to see a cap to land grabbing or something or anything on that front really. Owerall if the corrent things would be fixed then the game wold get alot of players joining the game, yet i think even after that i think i still woldnt want to play the game. So why i still woldnt want to play it, well there are tons of games who fk up less and the game is too unreliable to me.
Also the archeaeg news is getting anoying because noone likes the game anymore. Anyone claiming to like archeaeg either has been lucky enoth to get to login(server crashes) and really likes to be beaten up by game makers or its the guy with lots of land.
And not a peep about the upcoming 2.0 patch for Path of Exile?…true it's not out yet but there is some massive news for the game, desync has been "fixed" with a lockstep mode, if your latency means you can't use lockstep there are more fixes to the standard method of sync.
Massive act 4, new mechanics involving the passive tree and quality of life fixes including customisable loot filters.

Zira's Den is a location in the Outlands.
Zira's Den is a large rock formation that looks a little bit like a lion's head with stalagmites and stilagtites resembling teeth. Inside is a pathway leading to a large open space surrounding by imposing walls outside.
When Zira and her pride overtake Jasiri's Watering Hole, Jasiri comes to the Pride Lands to request Kion's assistance.
Kion agrees to help her, and after tasking Bunga with informing their friends of his whereabouts, Kion goes to the Outlands to talk with Zira.
Upon meeting Zira, her sons, and daughter, Zira leads Kion away to speak privately with him about the important role that their species play. She then leads him to her den, and remarks that whilst it may not be Pride Rock, it is home to the Outsiders.

Location is peaceful, right next to the Caldera river. There was a fire in the fireplace, great to read or snuggle by, and the honor bar would be very cool to share with friends (we went as a couple). You can play your own tunes or throw up a game on the flat-screen, especially if you have the place to yourself. Slept like a baby two nights in a row. Like!

House Rules The Riverside Inn takes special requests – add in the next step!
The Riverside Inn accepts these cards and reserves the right to temporarily hold an amount prior to arrival.
In general no negative remarks.
The coffee is luke warm and I believe a hotel of this quality should look for a better coffee brewing system. I will say that I have run hotel's for many years and this coffee will meet the needs of most.
I dislike being charged for coffee in all hotels but this coffee was very good.
I have not a single complaint.
The restaurant could use a little more consistency. Continental breakfast starring sliced processed cheese-like products is a pity in a land of readily-available artesanal cheeses. Also, it's a pity to have to use AC in a cool mountain setting like this, but the building itself is not really set up for open windows. I mean, you can open them, but since it's all on ground level, privacy and bugs are an issue.
Bed very soft and wood creaked and squeaked everytime you moved. No outside seating area.
Quiet and peaceful. Beautiful surroundings. Staff very professional and friendly. Stunning property with lots of little extra touches.
Our room air conditioner had a faulty fuse and stopped a couple of times during the night. This is an older structure, so it needs to be upgraded.
The restaurant next door, called the Rock, was very good and of gourmet quality. The food was very well presented, the staff friendly and somewhat adequate in English. They had a bluesy/jazz band the first night we were there which was very good. There is an outside covered patio where guests can walk out to the river and take pictures.

7 Stoner Albums to Vibe to With Your Best Buds
We're lovers of great music here at SoL, so we've compiled a smokin' list of seven stoner albums that will have you feeling the vibe either on your own or with your best buds. Check it out and then drop us a comment with your own recommendations below!
There are two things that can help take your smoking session to the next level — great movies to watch and excellent music to listen to.
If you are looking for the latter, there have been several albums in all different genres released throughout the years that hit all of the right notes. By looking for albums that capture a certain vibe, you'll enhance your high and appreciate life.
Smoking cannabis is a spiritual experience that touches on all of the senses, so you owe it to yourself to stock up on the right music.
Here are some great stoner albums that you should check out.
1. Devin the Dude – Just Tryin' ta Live
Devin the Dude has made an entire career putting out top-quality stoner rap. His 2002 offering "Just Tryin' ta Live" is another notch in his discography, and is considered by many fans to be his best album of all.
In addition to excellent production from Dr. Dre, DJ Premier, Raphael Sadiiq, David Banner, and Devin the Dude himself, the funky vibes are unlimited. On the album, Devin raps every man tales with the adeptness and smooth lyrical prowess that he's known for, and of course, talks about his favorite subject of all — good weed.
Look into the best cannabis strains available when you're ready to load up some music.
2. Miles Davis – Bitches Brew
If you want to throw on some vinyl records, Miles Davis is an artist you can't go wrong with.
In the 2000s, you might not associate weed with jazz. However, jazz in its purest form has been historically soulful, progressive, and provocative. Miles Davis is a godfather in the genre, and "Bitches Brew" is the most experimental of his catalog.
This album throws structure and norms out of the window and is a mind-bending, expressive option that you will definitely want to own and listen to during your smoke sessions.
3. Funkadelic – Free Your Mind… And Your Ass Will Follow
Free your mind and your ass will follow… The kingdom of heaven is within!
These are the first lyrics that blare through the speakers when you throw on this album from the legendary group Funkadelic. From there, it's an eclectic journey of sound and expression that touches on everything from spirituality and living in the moment to the ills of consumerism.
It's a trippy experience that only George Clinton can deliver. Clinton even said that the goal for the album was to see what they could come up with tripping on acid during the entire recording process — so this tells you everything you need to know.
4. DJ Shadow – Endtroducing…..
DJ Shadow's "Endtroducing…" is widely considered the best instrumental album of all time. It's hip hop at its core, but mixes in samples music from just about every genre you can think of.
The album took two years to make, and the process involved sampling vinyl records on the MPC sampler. It features thirteen tracks and loads of verbal samples. Reviewers have given this album 5 stars across the board, and it is hailed as one of the best of its kind.
5. Pink Floyd – Dark Side of the Moon
"Dark Side of the Moon" is the most famous offering from Pink Floyd due in large part to the edgy and groundbreaking sounds. The music is haunting, to the point that several conspiracy theories have come out about it.
Perhaps the most famous conspiracy theory involves the movie "The Wizard of Oz." People for decades have said that if you sync the beginning of the album with the movie, the mood and lyrics correlate to everything happening in the film.
You will appreciate the dark vibes of this album, in addition to the experimentation and genre-pushing that it provides.
6. Black Keys – Magic Potion
When it comes to stoner rock, Magic Potion makes the list as one of the best offerings in modern history. The dark, soulful funk that the Black Keys provide makes it a classic in its own right.
It's considered by fans to be their best album, and you'll appreciate every part of this experience, down to the cover art. In addition to songs that you can zone out to, you'll also love the album's lyrics and every part of the expression that they provide.
7. Wiz Khalifa – Kush & Orange Juice
While Wiz is an incredible rapper, his biggest contribution comes in building on the subgenre of stoner rap. He built his following and brand on his love of cannabis, and his Kush & Orange Juice mixtape is the body of work that put him on the map.
The mixtape features production from Cardo, Big K.R.I.T., and other heavy hitters, along with 20 tracks of quality lyrics and stoner vibes. Wiz has put out lots of other quality albums and mixtapes over the years, but fans always come back to Kush & Orange Juice when they want to recapture this amazing moment in time.

I am slowly starting to make my way through the big bag full of product samples and information I got at last year's Expo West. If I'm lucky, I'll do most of it before I go again this year.
$4.20 per 7 oz (10 cookie) box or $3.00 each if you buy a case of 12.
I've only tasted the ginger.
Ingredients: Flour base (brown rice flakes, millet flakes, soya flour, corn starch, xanthan gum), desiccated coconut, naturally evaporated cane sugar, stem ginger, molasses, monounsaturated safflower oil, rice syrup, sea salt.
For all of the cookies, they state they are free of wheat, gluten, eggs, nuts, potato, vege (don't know what that is), and transfats. For the following, they list them as things the cookies are not free of: dairy, corn, soy.
But the ingredients do not mention dairy at all. The box does say "contains milk & soya." I am not sensitive enough to dairy to be able to tell if there are trace amounts there. They are definitely and totally gluten-free from what I can tell, not just their ingredients but Codex compliance and a dedicated facility.
Okay, here's the fun part, the nice people at the booth last year gave me a whole box to take home. We made them last. They are some of the best boxed cookies I've ever had. They are flaky and melt in your mouth with intense flavor. They are big and substantial enough that one is a dessert. Miriam loves them too and considered a cookie to be adequate compensation for not getting cake at a friend's birthday party.
Although they are hardly lowcarb (though not terrible at 10 grams usable carbs (12-2 fiber) per 20 gram cookie), I'm seriously considering ordering a case.
Per your question re 'dairy' listed- we do so as a precaution .
2. Soya flour is when the Soya beans are dehulled and their oil extracted before being ground into flour. its basically a process of removing the oil and refining into flour.
The amounts of casein and lactose are minimal.
We will have new products without any traces in near future.
I have email her to ask whether this contains traces of milk because the equipment is shared with another product that contains skimmed milk powder or that it an actually ingredient used to make the flour mix. I will post the response I get.
I just found the list of ingredients for the Chocolate Chip Orange Cookies which contain milk powder. I'm assuming that the equipment is shared with the other cookies so the trace amount is from this cross contamination. I will see what the rep has to say.
Sunstart Chocolate Chip Orange Cookies.
Ingredients: Vegetable margarine (vegetable oil, water, salt, emulsifier: polyglycerol esters of fatty acids, colors: annatto, curcumin, flavoring), desiccated coconut (15%), gluten free flour (maize starch, whey powder, potato starch, soya flour, milk powder, glucose, salt, stabilizer: hydroxypropyl methy cellulose), choclate chips (12%) (sugar, hydrogenated vegetable oil, skimmed milk powder, cocoa powder, emulsifier: soya lecithin, salt, flavoring), sugar, millet, brown rice flakes, natural orange flavor.
Hi Grant, thanks so much for your comments and your reports.
I also spoke with Sunstart at the Expo West convention in mid-March. I met them last year too and got the samples. I asked about the dairy and they said it was listed as having dairy (without it being in the ingredients) due to cross-contamination on shared equipment. He didn't say anything about it being in the flour mix, though it may all just be about contamination.
They've revamped their cookies and I got a new box to try. Posting a new review is on my to-do list. The primary change is the size. Appearently people thought the old cookies were too big(?).
I'm happy to say the taste and texture seem to be unchanged. But the other thing is the new box (and this is just for Ginger; I haven't seen the others) says "dairy free." So it seems they've solved the cross contamination problem. Or so I hope. I tolerate traces of dairy so can't tell if there are any. I gave some samples to friends and will get their feedback.

Cape League: Former U.S. ambassador Bill Richardson pitches for ballpark
Aug 20, 2015 at 11:08 PM Aug 20, 2015 at 11:09 PM
COTUIT -- Bill Richardson's summer pitching for the 1967 Cotuit Kettleers, on its surface, had little to do with the career he'd pursue over the ensuing decades.
He became a U.S. congressman from New Mexico, ambassador to the United Nations, U.S. Secretary of Energy, Democratic presidential candidate and governor of New Mexico.
Yet Richardson kept coming back to Cape Cod, eventually buying a summer home in Chatham. He also kept coming back to Lowell Park to watch the Kettleers in the Cape Cod Baseball League.
Richardson pledged his support at Thursday's "Keep Lowell Park Green" fundraiser at the Cotuit Center for the Arts. The project seeks to purchase and preserve the 19 acres of woodlands surrounding Lowell Park. Richardson said that summer back in 1967 helped build some of the beliefs he would carry into his political career.
"The importance of protecting our land, our heritage, our resources, the ecosystem, the wildlife, was started here," Richardson said. "This land needs to be protected, and there should be no argument."
"Keep Lowell Park Green" is a $1.8 million project organized by the Barnstable Land Trust that seeks to purchase the 19 acres from the descendants of Elizabeth Lowell, who donated the original 5-acre ballpark. A successful fundraising initiative, the terms of which the BLT and Lowell family agreed to in September 2013, would allow the park to maintain its picturesque woodland setting rather than leave the land open to as many nine housing developments.
Those 19 acres also include a sizable portion of Lowell Park's right field. Should the fundraiser fail, BLT Executive Director and Land Protection Specialist Jaci Barton told the crowd, "They might have to move the field, and if they have to move the field, there's not enough room on the town land to even have a Little League field."
"Lowell Park is the most beautiful field in the whole of the Cape League, and we need to keep it that way," Barton said.
The 19 acres in question are also deeply intertwined with Cotuit's local ecosystem, serving as part of an 800-acre natural corridor that stretches out to Eagle Pond and local conservation lands, according to the BLT website. The land also contributes to one of Cotuit's drinking water supply wells and, if developed into homes, could lead to more nitrogen waste entering Cotuit Bay.
It's these environmental benefits that attracted Richardson to the cause, perhaps even more so than his time as a relief pitcher. Richardson said he worked for a local developer named Allen Crawford during his summer as a Kettleer. The job frequently took him into the woods of Cotuit to clear out land.
Richardson said he met Barton when she was manning a BLT table outside Lowell Park prior to a game four years ago.
"My experience in Cotuit made me a conservationist because of my work when I was player, of working the forest, seeing it," Richardson said.
The trust is now in the homestretch of its fundraising initiative, with just over $244,000 to go before the Sept. 1 deadline. More than $7,000 came in Thursday, which Barton said will be the last public fundraising event.
Barton said "Keep Lowell Park Green" has already drawn more than 1,500 contributors from throughout Cape Cod, making it the largest project since the trust formed in 1983. The Town of Barnstable voted in February to allocate $225,000 in Community Preservation Act funds toward the trust, plus $300,000 more to purchase a three-acre natural buffer around the ballpark, which the town owns.
Barton and the BLT raised the rest. She said she was always confident "Keep Lowell Park Green" would become the trust's 146th successful undertaking.
"People love the Kettleers, and the Kettleers are so much a part of Cotuit and the Cape Cod Baseball League," Barton said. "Wherever there are Kettleers fans, we had contributions."
Former Kettleers Tony Capo and Bob Butkus also spoke at the event, echoing Richardson's sentiment that playing for the Kettleers was "a magical summer."

You already know that protecting your home and your family are important and security cameras play a pivotal role in achieving that, but you are not quite sure of the type you want. The market is awash with all sort of variants. How do you choose which one is ideal? What other factors do you consider besides your budget? Here at PhilipCosby we are determined to help you solve that puzzle.
Analogue cameras are based on television technology using CCD sensors (Charged-Coupled Device) a light-sensitive integrated circuit that stores images such that each pixel in the image is converted to an electrical charge the intensity of which is related to a colour in the colour spectrum.
Digital cameras make use of the CMOS sensors (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) with software embedded in the camera. Digital cameras have become extremely common as the prices have come down. One of the drivers behind the falling prices has been the introduction of the CMOS image sensors. CMOS sensors are much less expensive to manufacture than CCD sensors. Both CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) and CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) image sensors start at the same point, they have to convert light into electrons.
Analogue and Digital cameras come in various models such as Box, Bullet, Dome, Day/Night, Infrared as well as Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) all have different lenses. It is interesting to note that not all camera types and models are suitable for every light or weather condition. A very important issue we will be dwelling on today is the use of wrong lenses. Using the wrong lenses can be detrimental to your safety. Choosing wrong lenses is one of the commonest mistakes in CCTV installation across the country. This normally leads to situations where people appear too small for any meaningful recognition.
To observe a person at 50% you can only view an area the width of two car park spaces (Approximately 4 meters) The most popular lens sold to customers in the fixed 3.6 millimeter , which gives you a wide angle view of 70 degrees but can only provide a facial recognition of 3.2 meters so if your camera is located at a height of 5 meters you are depending on an intruder bringing a ladder and climbing up in front of the Camera in order to be recognized! Generally, a 3.6-millimeter lens will only enable you to either observe or detect a person.
The table below gives the angle of view and recognition distance of some popular lens formats.
If you choose the wrong lens camera, there is a 90% chance the police will not be able to make use of any crime footage that is recorded and we all know the implications of this.

It starts with one decision. Choose well!
their university and national coach Ken Shields.
While I am not necessarily a basket ball enthusiast I was especially attentive when Eli Pasquale spoke. By basketball standards he is short at 6'1″. He has always been shorter than his team mates, in grade ten he was only 5'3′, but that did not stop him from obtaining his dream.
Eli spoke about decisions and how the choices we make determine our outcomes. He spoke about how he would practice ball handling for two hours an night, in his basement using chairs as his opponents, until the ball became an extension of his being. He told us about how he would ride to school with his dad, so he could practice shooting in the gym before classes. He spoke of trying out for the school team and making it. He showed a picture of his towering team mates with him in the middle as the shortest person. One decision after another he dedicated himself to practicing his skills to the point that he overcame what might have been an obstacle.
Then the day came when he decided he wanted to be an Olympian. He made a difficult decision to leave his home and family in Ontario to train with Coach Ken Shields at the University of Victoria, British Columbia. Nine years after making the decision to play basketball in the Olympics, he represented Canada in Los Angeles in 1984.
Find quality coaches with quality training.
Practice your skills until they become a natural extension of yourself to overcome obstacles.
Then, with passion, achieve your dream.
I create an environment where people tap into their self motivation, commitment and fulfill their dreams through passion.
I encouraging people to continue on their paths, overcoming obstacles through practice.
As a result IENs have fun learning in a healthy environment where they have self worth having grown and progressed by doing the best that they can.
When Coach Shields described coaching that results in excellence he described not only himself but also CELBANPrep when he said, "quality coaches giving quality training". This is only one of the many reasons why people pass the CELBAN having taken CELBANPrep. They pass because they: make a decision; make a commitment; find quality coaches with quality training; practice, practice, practice. And with passion, it does come; they achieve their dreams.
It starts with one decision. Choose well.

To begin analysis, one must examine what causes change between supply and demand. An increase in the price will reduce the total revenue and a decrease in price will increase total revenue e. Measuring degree of monopoly powe r: The less is the elasticity of demand higher will be the price and wider the difference between the marginal cost and greater the monopoly power, and vice versa. Of course, no one can openly or explicitly charge a rent higher than the controlled rate. It may take some time to come up with the necessary information.
Zero 0 , which is perfectly inelastic. If on the other hand, demand for a given agricultural product is elastic, the unplanned increase in the agricultural output will only cause slight reduction in price so that the incomes made by the farmers would increase. Practical application of price elasticity : Practical application of price elasticity of demand are as follows: 1. According to statistician Ernst Engel 1821-1896 demand for low necessities like food also changes but at snail's pace. More specifically, knowledge of Price Elasticity of Demand can help the firm forecast its sales and set its price.
What are some of the applications of elasticity of demand?
If buyers pay a buck each, one dollar, they get as many generic cheese sandwiches as they want. Electricity variety of uses,you can cut down on some of its uses if the price increases. What happened to other priorities? Moreover, a profit-maximising monopolist will always operate on the elastic part of his demand curve or his average revenue curve. It can be profitably practised only when price elasticity of demand differs from market to market or from one segment of the market to another. Almost every pack of cigarette contains some symbol or photo to make smoking distasteful for the viewers.
But the maximum impact is brought by huge taxation. I stopped my car and went to the store. A finance minister is to consider the elasticity of demand of the different commodities for the purpose of taxation. These agricultural fluctuations occur either due to the unplanned changes in agricultural production or due to changes in demand for farm products. As such, the supply of generic cheese sandwiches is perfectly elastic.
Although in the short run, landlords cannot do much to the lowering of rent through control, further investment in constructing houses and apartments by them will be reduced causing reduction in the supply of rental houses in the long run. When the price elasticity of demand of a commodity is elastic this is when the quantity demanded of a good or service responds significantly to the increase or decrease in price. Operationally, it is given as: 1. Third, food surplus can be given to other countries as foreign aid or it can be exported. For example, brain tumor surgery has an upper limit and demand will never expand beyond that limit no matter how low the price. Therefore, gathering data on how consumers respond to changes in price can help reduce risk and uncertainly.
Let's say that the cost of vanilla flavoring increases as a result of short market supply. Thus making tobacco an elastic demand. For many people, this price point is too high to justify. This law specifies some monthly rental rates of housing units of some standard sizes above which the landlord cannot charge rent. Elastic goods are more sensitive to increases in price, while inelastic goods are less sensitive. On the other hand, it is essential for a business manager to know the exact or the most probable change in our revenue.
First, they never reach capital, and on some extraordinary occasions it may be expedient that even capital should contribute towards the public exigencies; and secondly, there is no certainty as to the amount of the tax, for it may not reach even income. But they have also their disadvantages. If he pushes commodity tax excise duty rates up too much the consequent increase in price may make the total tax yield even lower than before. This point may now be illustrated. Likewise, if a persons income decreases, then their demand for 'normal' goods might decrease and they may resort to buying the ' inferior' goods in order to save money. The importance of price elasticity of demand is explained in the following points: i.
In a literary sense, it means that as lecturers move up in their cadres, the need for cars becomes more important to them; as well as a commodity they cannot do without. If no tax is levied on the commodity, the seller or producer will receive the whole amount of the price. The Practical Application of Price Elasticity and Income Elasticity of Demand Essay Sample There are several uses of Price Elasticity of Demand that is why firms gather information about the Price Elasticity of Demand of its products. Wages: Easticity of demand also exerts its influence on wages. Whether it is a necessity or a luxury. Economic Policy: The knowledge of elasticity is also valuable in the formation of economic policies, too. Its relative importance in the consumer's budget.
What is the practical application of the elasticity concept?
In particular, an understanding of elasticity is fundamental in understanding the response of supply and demand in a market. Assuming that there are no costs in producing the product, businesses would simply increase the price of a product until demand falls. What will be the profit- maximising price will be dictated by elasticity of demand; and it will enable the monopolist to know exactly at what price sales proceeds or total revenue will be the highest. For example: 1- It is important for public managers as well as the agriculture business to decide what kind of crops shall help their revenue. The maximum rent fixed by the Government helps the tenants, who generally belong to lower and middle income groups and intend to prevent their exploitation by rich landlords who would charge a very high market determined rates of rent. Perfectly elastic supply doesn't happen often, but it's happened before in agriculture markets. This raises the food cost in every sector of the economy which must lead to higher prices all round.

Badass Nazri Aziz – A Doberman Every UMNO PM Loves To Own
Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz, or popularly known as Gangster Nazri, or simply Nazri, is a politician you either love or hate. He's a cat with nine lives, served under former prime ministers Mahathir Mohamad and Abdullah Badawi before serving Najib Razak today. How many ministers could actually claim such trophy?
Under Mahathir's premiership, Mr Nazri was the Entrepreneur Development Minister, a portfolio that comes with mouth watering perks especially the monopoly in the issuance of taxi permits. Essentially, whoever controls this ministry becomes super rich. Needless to say, he was tainted with tonnes of allegations of corruptions.
But Nazri was untouchable, and even moved to the Prime Minister's Office as the defacto Law Minister under Badawi's administration. He's perhaps the most controversial minister in the history of Malaysia. In 2005, he made history when he shouted "racist" 28 times in Parliament. He even called Mahathir a "bloody racist" when he served Badawi.
Most of the time, he mislead Parliament with false or inaccurate information. Of course, he couldn't care less because the loose cannon will always find controversial ways to divert attention whenever caught lying through his teeth. That's his trademark serving as the prime minister of the day's "hatchet man".
He called opposition party PAS "stupid" to discuss "Hudud", because it (hudud) will not happen. He also condemned police chief IGP Khalid Abu Bakar for failing to act against a muslim-convert father for kidnapping his son from the child's hindu mother after a high court had ruled.
And when he was exposed as the winner bidding for "WWW 97" car registration number, he arrogantly told all and sundry he has "lots of money". Talking about car number plate, badass Nazri has an equivalent notorious son – Mohamad Nedim Nazri – who drove an American Hummer 2 SUV with registration number "WNX 9776".
However, it wasn't the number plate or how the junior playboy could afford a half a million ringgit toy. It was Michael Chia Tien Foh, the real owner of the Hummer, whose arrest for transporting (or rather laundering) RM40 million from Hong Kong to Sabah in 2008, but "cleared" of all charges, that raised millions of eyebrows.
The Hummer was one of many assets identified by the MACC investigation into illiterate Michael Chia's money laundering scandal. It doesn't take a genius to figure that Mr Nazri and Mr Michael were indeed good "business buddies". Just like daddy, junior gangster Nedim was involved in a brawl that resulted in the death of a student Darren Kang in 2004.
Three years ago in 2012, Nedim, who has fleets of supercars, bodyguards and RM7 million bunglow despite not having a specific job, was caught on CCTV cameras assaulted a security supervisor at a posh condominium in Mont Kiara following a "minor altercation". Just like the death of Darren Kang, Nedim miraculously escaped any charges.
And the explanation from Mr Nazri over his son Nedim's usage of Michael Chia's luxury car? He couldn't care less and simply said he didn't see anything wrong with the whole fiasco. He even told reporters that since he neither sleeps with his son, nor gay, the business of using the Hummer was between his son and Michael Chia alone.
Ever since his "demotion" to the less luxury Minister of Tourism and Culture under Najib administration after the disaster 2013 general election, Mr Nazri has been trying very hard to impress the prime minister. Well, he has finally found a way to polish his master's shoes now, thanks to Najib's pet project – 1MDB RM42 billion debt scandal.
With the pending cabinet reshuffle scheduled to take place after the Hari Raya festival, the rush to shine as the biggest bootlicker has intensified. All the UMNO ministers wanted to get promotion, with rumours of at least five present ministers to be axed, or at least to be demoted to less important portfolio.
Just like other ministers fighting tooth and nail to suck up to PM Najib, loose cannon Nazri thought it was a golden opportunity when the Johor Crown Prince, Tunku Ismail Ibrahim, unleashed his displeasure and poked fun at the prime minister for chickening out from the "Nothing 2 Hide" forum.
Unlike other apple polishers, Mr Nazri always thinks out of the box. He tries very hard to be different from other bootlickers. And to achieve that, he fearlessly and arrogantly told the Johor Crown Prince to stay out of politics or risk getting "whacked", essentially telling the prince, who's also the president of the Johor Southern Tigers football club, to "Fuck Off".
Interestingly, the Johor Crown Prince retaliates by posting a silent 17-second video clip in which he makes a hand gesture welcoming a challenge, presumably from Gangster Nazri. If my breakfast today at a Mamak stall is any indication, Nazri might have bitten more than he can chew with his latest threat to the Johor royalty.
Citizens across the nation are revolting, judging by their online comments, after Mr Nazri shown his arrogance and gangsterism. Although today is the age of social media, most Malaysians especially the ethnic-Malay, have high respect for the Sultans, especially the Johor Sultanate. You do not simply humiliate the royal household in such way.
Nazri's threat to the Johor Crown Prince also does not hold water. If Tunku Ismail Ibrahim is not allowed to voice his opinions by virtue of him being a member of the royalty, then what gives PM Najib Razak an excuse to stay in power due to his claim that the Sultan of Pahang was on his side, despite the RM42 billion debt?
On a serious note, do you really think the badass Nazri Aziz cares a bit how the royalty thinks about his threat, which could easily be charged and found guilty under Sedition Act, if it was the opposition who had made such a statement? Hell no, because he's untouchable by virtue of him being one of UMNO warlords.
To be fair, Nazri is perhaps the only person who has the balls of steel, after Mahathir Mohamad, who dares to attack royalty. Among all the lap dogs making all sort of funny tricks hoping to get some crumbs from the PM Najib, Nazri stands out as the ultimate Doberman, an obedient, loyal and fearless dog, although intelligence is not one of them (*grin*).
Nazri knows he couldn't be a "Poodle" or "Chihuahua", simply because the competition was too fierce in that category. All the presidents from MCA, MIC, Gerakan, PPP, other party components fight endlessly to become poodles or chihuahuas. It seems he must have had read a page or two about "Blue Ocean Strategy" (*tongue-in-cheek*).
Hence, Mr Nazri wants to be a Doberman, an outstanding and loyal dog which every prime minister from UMNO – Mahathir, Abdullah, Najib – wants to own. He was smart enough to understand that if you want to become a dog, you must become a prestigious dog on top of the food chain. Heck, he's not only an ordinary Doberman, but an "Untouchable Doberman", just inches away from being the "God".

If you are considering filing for bankruptcy in Illinois, you will have to establish both your eligibility for bankruptcy and which type of bankruptcy that you can apply for. This is why it is vital to consult with a local Chicago bankruptcy attorney.
If you have no source of income and are unable to service any of your debt then you may be eligible for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. It effectively wipes out all or most of your personal debt, including medical bills, which is one of the biggest reasons that people are filing for bankruptcy in Illinois. A Chapter 7 bankruptcy is also able to stop any wages being garnished by your creditors.
When you feel that you have reached the end of the road and cannot bear to answer the phone or the door anymore because your creditors are hounding you, then talk to a professional bankruptcy attorney who can help ease the path for your financial future. Filing for bankruptcy means that you are able to rebuild your financial foundation without the stress and worry that comes from the crippling debt that is hurting many people across the country.
If you do have a steady job, but have fallen behind on payments or have amassed a large amount of debt due to medical bills that you are unable to service, then you may be eligible for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. You will have to submit a repayment plan to the court in Chicago who will then assess your case and discharge your bankruptcy when you have completed a Credit and Debt Counseling program to the satisfaction of the local court.
A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is one of the best ways of stopping a foreclosure even if you have been served with a foreclosure notice. You will be able to pay back the arrears on your mortgage without losing your home and the roof over your family's head.
There are a number of different ways of approaching a bankruptcy which is why you need to get the best guidance and help to decide on the way forward. It might feel like you cannot get out of the quagmire of debt right now, but there is a solution and it may very well be through a bankruptcy attorney.

Polish court sentences former PM aide over 2010 presidential jet crash
WARSAW (Reuters) – A Warsaw court found an aide of former Polish prime minister Donald Tusk guilty of negligence on Thursday in connection with a 2010 plane crash in Russia that killed Poland's then-president, Lech Kaczynski, and all 95 other people on board.
Private radio Zet tweeted that the court had sentenced Tomasz Arabski, who had headed Tusk's chancellery at the time, to 10 months in prison, suspended for two years.

L'Air Density C (AD-C), a volte citato anche come Explorer 39, è stato un satellite NASA, lanciato l'8 agosto 1968 dalla base aerea Vandenberg e non più operativo dal giugno del 1971. L'AD-C faceva parte del Programma Air Density, un progetto facente parte del più vasto Programma Explorer, di cui rappresentava il quarto satellite, e fu messo in orbita con lo scopo  di effettuare studi atmosferici.

Obbiettivi
Nel dettaglio, lo scopo principale della missione dell'Air Density C era quello di studiare le variazioni della densità dell'alta atmosfera nell'arco delle stagioni come funzione di densità e spazio attraverso osservazioni sequenziali, da terra, della posizione del satellite lungo la sua orbita. Le variazioni studiate erano sia quelle regolari e sistematiche, dovute alla diversa latitudine, longitudine  e all'ora del giorno, sia quelle non sistematiche, dovute a variazioni nell'attività solare.

Struttura
Così come i suoi predecessori, l'Air Density A e l'Air Density B, anche l'Air Density C era una sfera di 3,6 metri di diametro gonfiata con azoto e costituita da fogli di alluminio alternati con fogli di Mylar, sulla superficie esterna della quale erano uniformemente distribuite delle circonferenze di 5,1 cm di diametro, verniciate di bianco, necessarie per il controllo termico.La sfera era divisa al suo equatore da una striscia di Mylar la quale fungeva da antenna. Un radiofaro da 15 mW a 136,62 MHz utilizzava tale antenna per trasmettere un segnale utile a tracciare la rotta del satellite.

Lancio e operatività
L'Air Density C fu lanciato l'8 agosto del 1968 dal complesso di lancio numero 5 della base aerea Vandenberg, grazie a un razzo vettore Scout B. La sonda era contenuta, sgonfiata, in un cilindro di 21,6 cm di diametro e di 48,3 cm di lunghezza. Una volta raggiunto l'orbita desiderata, il satellite venne espulso dal suo alloggiamento tramite delle piccole cariche esplosive e contemporaneamente gonfiato e posto su un'orbita quasi polare altamente ellittica.Nel corso dello stesso lancio fu messo in orbita anche l'Injun 5, conosciuto anche come Explorer 40.

Il radiofaro dell'AD-C continuò a trasmettere fino a giugno del 1971, dopodiché fu possibile utilizzare solo i sistemi ottici, nella fattispecie delle fotocamere Baker-Nunn, per tracciare la posizione del satellite. Infine, il 22 giugno 1981, l'AD-C ha effettuato il suo rientro atmosferico distruggendosi.

Risultati
L'Air Density C, come i suoi predecessori, fu utile a determinare la variazione della densità dell'alta atmosfera terrestre fra il giorno e la notte, migliorando gli studi sui venti presenti nell'esosfera, ad altezza comprese tra i 450 e i 620 km.
