Introduction: Restrictions on working hours during the summer were first introduced in the UAE in 2007 and, as a result, accidents on construction sites dropped by more than 50% throughout July and August of that year compared with the same period in 2006.
Restrictions on working hours during the summer were first introduced in the UAE in 2007 and, as a result, accidents on construction sites dropped by more than 50% throughout July and August of that year compared with the same period in 2006. Based on this significant decrease it came as no surprise that the restrictions were retained.
Ministerial Decision 443 of 2010 imposed the restrictions in 2010, taking steps to extend the summer working restrictions so that they applied from June 15 to September 15. Ministerial Decision 543 of 2011 (the Decision) was issued on 29 May 2011 and sets out the details of this year's restrictions. While there is nothing particularly new or surprising in this year's restrictions, this article serves as a useful reminder of the extent of the restrictions, exceptions that may apply and the penalties for non-compliance.
As with the 2010 Decision, it is compulsory for companies to give labourers who work in open areas (such as construction sites) a two and a half hour break between the hours of12.30pm and 3.00pm. These restrictions will be effective from 15 June to 15 September. Labourers working in open spaces must not work between these hours and employers are required to provide a shaded area in which labourers can rest during this period.
In addition, daily working hours must not exceed 8 hours in any 24 hour period and any labourers working in excess of these hours will be entitled to be paid overtime rates for any such additional hours worked. Employers must also display details of labourers' daily shift schedules as these may be viewed by inspectors checking compliance in accordance with the Decision. These shift schedules must be displayed in both Arabic and the labourers' local language.
The Decision also repeats the requirement imposed on employers that they must protect workers from occupational injuries and diseases that may arise during working hours and also against fire and other such hazards that may be a result from the use of machinery and other work tools.
o Gas or petroleum supply lines.
o Disconnection of telecommunication lines.
Any other work as approved by the Undersecretary.
Shades to protect workers from direct sunlight.
The penalties for non-compliance will be similar to those previously applied. First time offenders will be subject to a fine of AED10,000 and will be downgraded to a Grade C company in Category II on the Ministry's grading scale (this takes into account factors such as the diversity of the workforce and the number of Emirati nationals employed) for a period of 3 months unless the company is already a Grade C Category II company, in which case no further work permits will be issued for the company for a period of 6 months.
In the case of a second breach, the company will be fined AED15,000 and will again be downgraded to a Grade C Category II company and will not have any new work permits issued for 6 months, unless the company is already a Grade C Category II company in which case, no work permits will be issued for 9 months. For a third breach the company will be fined AED20,000, will again be downgraded to a Grade C Category II company and will not have any new work permits issued for 9 months unless the company is already a Grade C Category II company, in which case, no further work permits from the company will be issued for a period of 12 months.
It is envisaged that inspectors will visit construction sites and other such places where work is performed in the open elements to ensure companies are complying with the reduced working hours and whether the details of shift patterns worked are being properly displayed. It remains to be seen whether a sufficient number of inspectors will be available to properly enforce the Decision.
Whilst the levels of fines are not particularly high, downgrades to a Grade C Category II company could mean that higher application fees are imposed on applications made to the Ministry of Labour. Additionally, the prohibition against obtaining new work permits for the requisite periods of time could have a significant impact on companies tendering for new work if they will not have sufficient existing resources to meet their proposed commitments.
Contractors will have been in the position to prepare for the introduction of the restrictions on working hours for some time so they should come as no surprise. Indeed most contractors to whom we have spoken have welcomed the move provided it is implemented across the board and is properly enforced. Contractors should therefore have already allowed for the reduced working hours in their programmes, thus avoiding any potential difficulties surrounding claiming extensions of time resulting from reduced working hours.
Consideration will no doubt have been given, in the months leading up to the introduction of the Decision, as to whether labourers should be transported away from the site during the restricted hours or whether adequate shade and other facilities can be provided on site.
Other factors contractors are sure to have already considered to assist them in the management of the UAE summer heat could include rescheduling activities (where possible) to cooler parts of the day, providing increased amounts of drinking water for labourers, reducing the demand on workers by minimising manual work through the use of mechanical aids, and ensuring the availability of first aid stations and personnel who are trained to recognise and deal with the effects of heat exhaustion and other related conditions.
The UAE summer heat has long been recognised as a significant factor affecting construction work in the country and the introduction of restrictions on working hours during the hottest part of year has significantly improved safety in the construction industry. This has also been recognised in other countries, with Bahrain and Saudi Arabia having followed suit with the introduction of their own summer working restrictions. It is surely only a matter of time before similar restrictions are imposed in other Gulf countries.
All reputable contractors working in the industry will already be aware of the natural loss of productivity that occurs each summer in the UAE and will be familiar with measures that are put in place to ensure their workers remain safe and as productive as possible during this period. Whilst the summer working restrictions do impose additional requirements, they generally serve to extend safety precautions that reputable contractors already had in place during the hotter months in an effort to maintain best practice throughout the construction industry.
However from 15 June, the Decision will carry the force of law and all contractors will need to ensure their compliance in order to avoid incurring penalties that could affect their business long after the summer has ended.

Since their involvement in Call of Duty esports, Enigma 6 have had the likes of current OpTic Gaming superstar, Brandon "Dashy" Otell and young eUnited talent Tyler "aBeZy" Pharris represent the brand.
With some members of the community critical of their roster choices in recent times, their qualification for the CWL Pro League has silenced the doubters and has raised the profile of some established names and a new face. The roster consists of Jordon "General" General, Steven "Diabolic" Rivero, Matthew "KiSMET" Tinsley, Kade "Kade" Jones and two-time Halo world champion, Bradley "Frosty" Bergstrom.
You have to look all the way back to April 2015 to see General competing for another organisation other than E6. As the longest standing member of the team, General has managed to build a roster consisting of players that often slip under the radar but are extremely skilled.
In the latter stages of the World War 2 season, General began to impress in the flex role alongside a team of aggressive slayers. After missing out on the pro league last season, General now has the opportunity to prove his worth against top international teams once again.
Having been on Enigma 6 for nearly four years, General has always managed to create a roster that can contend with the top teams but more often than not, that particular team has fallen short against some of the top North American and European powerhouses. Black Ops 4 could be different for General and E6. The latest incarnation of the team looks comfortable with the fast pace of the game and have looked good against some of the more established North American teams.
The talent of Kismet was spotted at CWL Anaheim last year when he was competing under the Conquest Esports banner. A series victory against Splyce and a top 24 placement was enough to see Kismet depart the team, play for a few teams that never amounted to much before fitting in as an aggressive slayer on Enigma 6.
Kade has been competing since 2015 and has previously played for E6 in the past. His ability to play a flex role and a more aggressive sub-machine gunner makes him a perfect fit for this team. Depending on the team or scenario in a game, Kade can adapt quickly which can be the difference to the incredibly fast nature of Black Ops 4.
This exciting duo has the chance to become one of the more formidable partnerships in the CWL Pro League this season. The two players fit well alongside the more passive players of General and Diabolic while combining well with the sheer speed and aggression of Frosty, who has transitioned very well from Halo.
When former Halo world champ Frosty revealed his intentions to transition to Call of Duty, there were many who thought that he would be unable to make a successful move into the CWL. The doubters have been proved wrong and Frosty has become a very scary sub-machine slayer in a very short period of time.
At the CWL Pro League Qualifier, there were several highlights from Frosty which were key into E6 securing their qualification into the league. Frosty looks to emulate the successes of former Halo players Ian "Enable" Wyatt, Ian "Crimsix" Porter and Matt "Formal" Piper who all switched from Halo and are now household names in the CWL.
Like many of the new players that have risen to the top in recent months, the level of performances from Frosty will only get better as he continues to practice and adapt to the mechanics of Call of Duty.
I expect Enigma 6 to be one of the several teams that are primed to challenge some of the more established teams in the CWL. Their combination of slaying, ability to adapt to every situation and efficient trading will be a tough challenge for any team that they face this season.
As for the Open events, this team could and should easily be placing in the top eight teams at the very least. As the season progresses, they could well be a dark horse if they qualify for the Pro League finals and the world championships at the end of the season.
You can check out Jon's analysis of some of the other lesser-known teams in the Call of Duty World League on GINX TV. Spanish side Heretics soared into the CWL with much fanfare, whilst Frenchmen Overtime esports are also representing continental Europe across the pond.

Celebrating the power of languages
Regina celebrates International Mother Language Day with dancing and culture sharing
Kristen McEwen
News Writer
Maintaining the ability to speak more than one language can be a challenge, especially if your mother language isn't spoken by the people around you.
The United Nations has declared Feb. 21 as International Mother Language Day. According to the UN, the day has been observed since February 2000 to "promote linguistic and cultural diversity and multilingualism."
The Saskatchewan Organization for Heritage Language (SOHL) held a celebration on Feb. 24, to recognize the many different languages that are spoken in Regina.
"[International Language Day is] a really nice opportunity," SOHL executive director Tamara Ruzic said. "It's being celebrated all over the world. It's a perfect opportunity to showcase multiculturalism and the diversity that exists in the world, and in our case, that exists in Regina."
The 10th annual celebration featured a number of guest speakers and entertainers. "The Rock Cree Project" featured Cree and English music performed by Bill Cook, a language instructor at the First Nations University of Canada, and singer and filmmaker Tessa Desnomie.
SOHL runs a number of language schools in the Regina, Saskatoon, Lumsden, Kipling and North Battleford. Languages taught at these schools include Arabic, Bangla, Cree, Filipino, Greek, Spanish, Uzbek and Yoruba.
Ruzic said the language schools are open to people of all ages. Credit courses and travel courses are also available at the schools.
"[International Language Day is] a really nice opportunity…It's being celebrated all over the world. It's a perfect opportunity to showcase multiculturalism and the diversity that exists in the world, and in our case, that exists in Regina." – Tamara Ruzic
Ruzic said learning a new language can become more challenging as people get older. As a refugee from Yugoslavia, she arrived in Canada when she was 10 years old. She said she quickly picked up English as a second language and lost her Serbian accent. For her parents, Ruzic noted the accent is still noticeable on long "a" sounds and the word "the."
"It's always hard to learn a new language, but it's even harder depending on the age of the learner," she said. "They always say children, it's the easiest for them to soak things up like a sponge."
Ruzic added that she had friends who came to Canada when they were 14 but still have accents to day.
"Fourteen tends to be the cutoff age," she said. "It's kind of neat how that works."
Many groups from the language schools in Regina performed songs and dances, which reflected the cultures from where the languages are spoken. The Bangla School of Regina performed a song that represents Feb. 21 and is performed all over Bangladesh throughout the month of February.
"[The celebration is] to show the talent and give exposure to these heritage language schools who are doing so much on so little resources," she said. "They really get modest funding from the government and our organization. A lot of dedicated volunteers are giving lots of hours to keep these schools [going]."
International Mother Language Day began in 1962, after students in Dhaka, Bangladesh were shot to death by police officers, during a demonstration that aimed to recognize Bengali as one of the two national languages of the region.
The City of Regina declared Feb. 20 to 26 to be International Heritage Language Week. According to Ruzic, SOHL wrote to the city and requested the proclamation to be whichever week Feb. 21 lands on. This year, the City of Saskatoon also recognized the week.
Ruzic said it's good to have recognition through these celebrations, particularly for languages that are in danger of fading away.
"It's nice to see recognition for those languages, because in our province, and country – there's obviously French and English – but there's not a whole lot of recognition for other languages," she said. "Especially in our province, we need to provide recognition for all of these other languages, [including] Aboriginal languages, especially when so many of them are in danger of becoming extinct. It's important to have events that celebrate languages and multiculturalism and just remind the public how important it is to keep them alive."

Fox may have another breakout hit drama on its hands.
The two-hour premiere of Prison Break, the first series debut of the season, brought in an average of 10.5 million viewers on Monday. Even against limited (OK, weak) competition, this ain't bad at all, especially for a summer premiere.
Actor-comedian John Leguizamo will effectively replace departing Noah Wyle on NBC's ER this fall.
Leguizamo will initially appear in 12 episodes, starting as a recurring character.
The network hopes its top-rated drama can continue to hold off CBS' Without a Trace for three more seasons.
Rome conquered much of its competition for HBO Sunday.
The expensive spectacle drew 3.8 million total viewers to its premiere. In fact, it was the most highly rated program on the channel since the fourth-season premiere of "Six Feet Under" in June 2004, and drew almost the same amount of viewers as last week's finale of Six Feet Under".
Of course, its Sopranos lead-in didn't hurt.
Enough with Kelly Clarkson, Already!

Small businesses that offer health insurance want to know what kind of rate increases they will face when they switch to new plans that comply with the health reform law.
Those numbers are hard to estimate. Rates vary from region to region, and the Affordable Care Act mandates more healthcare services that some older insurance policies did not.
Read more in this L.A. Times Healthcare Watch column about small firms, the possible impact of the law on their insurance rates, and tips when considering employee health benefits.

Q: SQLite code first and inverse property I'm working with SQLite CodeFires EF 6.1.3 . Everything works fine, but I want to use inverse property.
I have 2 classes:
public sealed class Page
{
   ....
    [InverseProperty("PageOfThisKey")]
    public ICollection<Keys> KeysOfThisPage { get; set; }
   ...
}

and class Key:
public sealed class Key
{
   ...
    public Int32 PageID { get; set; }
    [ForeignKey("PageID")]
    public Page PageOfThisKey { get; set; }
   ...
}

So what I want to be able to do is to take an instance of Page and get all Keys devoted to this page in the property. So to say - like this:
var db = ConnectionManager.GetContext();
var keys = db.Pages.First().KeysOfThisPage;

But 'keys' variable is always null.
I'm using code first and SQLite code first solution https://github.com/msallin/SQLiteCodeFirst
Can someone, please, take a look how is it possible to solve this?

A: you should use "virtual" keyword for enabling lazy loading like this :
public class Page
{
   ....
    [InverseProperty("PageOfThisKey")]
    public virtual ICollection<Keys> KeysOfThisPage { get; set; }
   ...
}

public class Key
{
   ...
    public Int32 PageID { get; set; }

    [ForeignKey("PageID")]
    [InverseProperty("KeysOfThisPage")]
    public virtual Page PageOfThisKey { get; set; }
   ...
}

Or you can using "include" in linq query.
var keys = db.Pages.Include("KeysOfThisPage").First().KeysOfThisPage;

Home	Workplace Management	What Is Private Equity
What Is Private Equity
by Jackson B September 27, 2020
What is private equity? Private equity is a common term used to describe the buying and selling of businesses, usually structured as a limited partnership, where the owner does not have the rights and responsibilities normally associated with an investment.
When people speak about private equity, they are referring to the sale of a business for an amount greater than the value of the investment. Some people use private equity in a wider sense, to refer to any type of business.
There are many different types of private equity, each having a slightly different definition and different advantages. The following describes the major types of private equity.
Private Equity – The purchase of an existing business by a firm with the goal of turning it into a profitable, highly leveraged company.
The issuance of an Obligation Note, commonly known as a Business Combination Note, to a third party who purchases all or a part of the assets of a business, such as purchasing assets like land, buildings, and machinery, which is then owned by the owner.
Common Equity – This includes any type of equity, including debt. This type of equity may be used to finance investments, but is typically not included in the purchase of a business.
Equity Pool – In this arrangement, investors pool together their money into one fund. This is usually used to finance a business acquisition.
Debt Capital – This is typically referred to as an unsecured loan but is not considered to be such by most creditors. It may be used to obtain a loan or credit line, however, because of the higher interest rates, it is most often used to make acquisitions and pay off debt.
Private Equity – This type of capital is not typically backed by a borrower and is generally secured by assets that are owned by the investor. One example of this would be a company that uses its equipment to make its products. Other examples include the purchase of machinery from a manufacturer and selling it at a discount.
Publicly-Owned Equity – This is commonly called an open-end trust, or sometimes an open-end mutual fund, where the investor shares in the ownership of the business and profits from its performance.
Private Equity – This is when the funds or equity is obtained by a non-shareholder from a venture capital firm or a private funding source. It is considered to be a very risky type of capital because of the fact that there is no guarantee that the company will make a profit.
Publicly-Owned Equity – This is similar to private equity, except that it is held by a private shareholder. Private shareholders in the US typically have limited voting rights.
Venture Capital – This is a type of private equity where companies are formed from private investors who form a partnership to make acquisitions and investments. Private funding sources usually provide funding through loans.
Private Investment – Private investments are often made by companies, especially if they have not made enough money to be able to issue debt, but want to take a risk on the business. These types of investments are usually done to raise money or generate growth.
Private Equity Capitalist – A private investor that has acquired a company for a significant amount of money or has a long-standing relationship with that company. These investors are able to purchase companies for more than the market price, because they are willing to take more risk than other investors.
Private Equity Capitalist – Also known as Private Placements – This type of investment is when a company applies for an investment from a private investor. An investment is usually made based on the company's stock price, rather than the underlying assets or market value. Private placements also commonly involve debt, and interest rates.
If you need a little extra help with understanding private equity investment, consider using a private equity finance company. These companies are specifically trained to help you understand the intricacies of this type of investment, and can give you advice and resources that will help you find the right investment.

SEATTLE — Yankees manager Joe Girardi said he doesn't believe the recent shaky relief work by Dellin Betances and Aroldis Chapman are long-term issues. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean the manager isn't concerned about the back end of his bullpen's being inconsistent.
Betances hit a batter and gave up a single in the eighth that ended scoreless when Jarrod Dyson whiffed. Working in a non-save situation Chapman walked Mike Zunino, the No. 9 hitter, starting the ninth and gave up a two-out, RBI double to Robinson Cano in the ninth.
Chapman said he hasn't been sharp since coming back from an inflamed rotator cuff on June 18 after missing almost a little more than a month.
Was it the fastball or slider that didn't feel as crisp?


This course would start with a brief portrayal of the two halves of the brain: the logical, analytical right lobe and the creative, imaginative side. Although these sides may seem very distinct at first, we wanted to discuss specific parallels we find in our daily lives and hobbies that integrate these sides in funny, exciting, and inspiring ways. We will mainly focus on the parallels between music and science/math. We would then end with how the coolest and most useful discoveries were made with both aspects in mind!


Rocktail Beach Camp on the KwaZulu Natal north coast was on my bucket list – A small, private diving resort hidden in iSimangaliso Wetland Park – a World Heritage Site, with 220km of coastline, three major lakes, eight interlinking ecosystems, Africa's largest estuarine system, a marine reserve, 526 bird species and ancient coastal dunes. The name iSimangaliso means miracle and wonder, which aptly describes this unique place.
Every year, in the summer months, leatherback and loggerhead turtles lumber up the beaches of iSimangaliso to lay hundreds of eggs in the dunes. I knew I had to go there.
"Hold onto the ropes!" Clive gunned the motor and we crashed through the surf, the boat flying over breaking swells, the wind whipping spray into our faces.
We were out on our first ocean experience at Rocktail. Understatement. On command we donned our snorkels and flippers and bailed into the deep water offshore. The water swirled silver and luminescent around us, while the potato bass kept a respectable distance and Manta rays vacuumed the sands beneath.
Out of the dark blue a turtle joined us, curious and gentle, gracefully gliding around me.
Positioned ahead of the gentle giant moving steadily up the coast, we launched ourselves into the water and waited. Murky nothingness, and suddenly this spotted submarine was right in front me, widespread eyes unperturbed by my presence.
The whale shark was a male juvenile, about 6 metres long. We swam with him, in awe of the moment.
The moon was full in the early hours of the next morning, and we climbed on a Landrover to go in search of turtles laying their eggs. A dark lumbering rock emerging from the surf became a turtle moving up the beach to dig its nest. We waited until she had started laying before venturing closer to have a look.
The turtles go into a hypnotic state while they lay and this enables the rangers to measure and tag them.
As the sun rose, she closed the hole, hundreds of eggs intact, and moved solidly towards to sea.
We watched overwhelmed and exhausted for her.

Is there any censorship board present for films and TV shows for Hollywood?
There is Censor Board for films produced in India. It assigns certifications to films, television shows, television ads, and publications for exhibition, sale or hire in India. Films can be publicly exhibited in India only after they are certified by the Board.
Do USA or some large film industries have these types of censorship board, specially for Hollywood movies?
What are their acceptance criteria?

The only one I know of is the MPAA that assigns ratings to movies depending on the age group that should be viewing the movie. Other than that, there is no other certification needed.

check MPAA and Wikipedia

In the United States, there isn't a strict analogue for your Censor Board. Here, the First Amendment to the US Constitution provides protection to film makers, ensuring the government won't censor their work. However, the law doesn't prevent voluntary censorship, which is where the MPAA comes in. They're a trade group of movie studios who created a ratings system. Films can voluntarily be submitted to be rated by them.
Movie theaters in the US then do some enforcement of policies based on these ratings. For example, usually children under 17 are not allowed into rated R films unless accompanied by an adult. In addition, theaters will sometimes not screen any films that lack a rating. Theaters will also often refuse to screen NC-17 films, which ends up acting as a sort of censorship, as when a film is being made in part to make a profit, not being able to distribute it to thousands of theaters nationwide due to an NC-17 rating means the contents of the film will be self-censored down to rated R-levels of content.
Usually in the making of a film, a specific rating will be targeted for marketing reasons. So a film that the studio wants to have broad appeal will have its content crafted to ensure a PG-13 rating, which doesn't have the "no people under 17 can freely get in the theater" limitation that rated R films have. This helps ensure more people can easily watch the film in theaters.

BBFC is the British version of the same thing. I think a lot of countries have their own classification board.

And to answer your second question, the MPAA doesn't explain their criteria. A lot of directors guess at what is acceptable, and will even throw in some obvious, over the top scenes in hopes that something else (what they really want) will pass through. See "Censor Decoy" and "Getting Crap Past the Radar" on tvtrope.org's page.

Films have been covered. What is allowed to be aired on TV and radio is governed differently.
The Federal Communications Commission [FCC] governs broadcasts. Broadcasts are things like TV and radio which broadcast over the airwaves, but not cable and Internet. The FCC derives its authority from the idea that the bandwidth of the electromagnetic spectrum is limited and there can be a limited number of stations in a given area. Somebody has to step in to prevent a shouting match. The Federal government owns the airwaves and licenses their use via the FCC.
The FCC disallows "indecent programming or profane language" between 6am and 10pm, this is to avoid exposing children. "Obscene" broadcasts are disallowed at all times. The FCC derives this power from the logic that TV and radio are a community resource and thus should be used to "community standards".
The FCC publishes some guidelines about what is "indecent", "profane" and "obscene", and the courts have made many rulings, but in the end it's difficult to predict what the FCC will find a problem with, "community standards" change, and as a Federal agency they are somewhat subject to the whims of the current administration. They tend to disallow sex, nudity and harsh language but allow violence.
Eric Idle famously wrote The FCC Song in response to being fined $5000 for saying fuck once on the radio. Bono got away with saying fuck on the technicality that it wasn't referring to sex, similar how "ass" has been allowed. However, a half second of nipple at the Super Bowl half time show caused an enormous controversy and shake up of regulations.

🇬🇧 Short presentation for "Trompe l'œil", Agostino Iacurci's solo show at Celaya Brothers Gallery, Mexico City, November 10 / December 9 2017
[…] une abstraction qui n'en retient que l'essence
In an essay from 1953 named Les tombeaux de Ravenne, Yves Bonnefoy uses these words to define what ornament is. The recently departed French poet and essayist initially claims that an ornament works pretty much like a concept, as opposed to an object. We may paraphrase his words by saying that, like a concept usually does, ornament has the particular power of showing the essence of an object by means of abstraction.
This understanding of ornament seems to fit what Agostino Iacurci is doing in this unedited corpus of works, which for many aspects represents a breaking point in his production so far: an exploration of local (Mexican) ornaments through painting and sculpture. But let us step back a moment to our starting concern: ornament as a sort of abstract, "ontological tool", a way to reveal the essence of a specific object. Is this not, indeed, the very endeavor of art tout-court? The act of representing or conceptualizing an object – in a rather generic sense: a physical object, a spiritual one, an idea, a phenomenon, an emotion… – through the artwork is always an exercise of abstraction.
Ornaments are, of course, works of art. Yet the Western world has for a long time highlighted a significant distinction between the fine and the decorative – being rather ungenerous with the latter – a distinction that mostly lies in one specific vocation of all ornaments: their adjunctiveness, that is being other than the artwork but at the same time bond to it. Being adjunctive also means having some kind of function: unlike an artwork, an ornament is never for its own sake or for a "deep", "noble" cause, but it is meant to embellish something else (like a capital does to a column), or to add value to it (like a frame does to a painting).
Jacques Derrida borrows from Immanuel Kant the Greek word parergon as a synonym for ornament, but also and particularly to describe the existing ratio between it and the ergon, namely the artwork. There is something disturbing about the parergon: it is accessory to the ergon, but at the same time we cannot be sure that the parergon is completely external to the ergon; it is marginal while playing at the same time a fundamental role in the ergon's "functioning". Ornaments provide artworks their place and unity: as Derrida puts it, "they are inseparable from a lack within the ergon. And this lack makes for the very unity of the ergon" (La vérité en peinture, 1978).
Then, it looks like the ornament could only be experienced, or understood, through its relationship to the artwork: then let us imagine a work of art in which the Derridean ratio work-ornament is somewhat subverted. I don't mean an artwork in which an ornament is simply reproduced or integrated in the pictorial fiction – like in the famous gallery paintings by David Teniers the Younger, Fortunato Depero's tapestries or René Magritte's Le masque vide, among many other examples. I rather mean an artwork whose very subject is the ornament itself, like if a frame stepped inside a canvas and pushed away anything else to make room for itself alone: a painting about a frame, an ergon about the parergon.
Such a subversion is the object of Agostino Iacurci's pictorial research. A trompe l'oeil in a figurative sense: not supposed to cheat the eye of the observer – the quasi-abstract appearance of such plain-colored and playful canvases could never succeed in this – but to cheat our understanding of the common boundaries between art and decoration.
Mexican architectural ornaments and ornamental plants can be a challenging subject for a painting and sculpture exhibition. It looks like the artist, during his urban exploration of Mexico City, has focused on what is commonly perceived as marginal, and made artwork out of it. Door and windows frames, friezes and balcony bars have thus become the object of symmetric, colorful paintings, in which the pictorial frames coincide with the edges of the canvas, the central part of which is deprived of any other pictorial element. On the other hand, agaves, ferns and cacti have become wooden sculptures – in which trunks look like elongated versions of the ornamental bars that the artist has eye-captured from some balcony during his walks – that remind us of some wooden representations of flowers made by Futurist artist Giacomo Balla between 1918 and 1925.
Giacomo Balla, Flora futurista
The architectural ornaments that inspired Agostino Iacurci's work are very different from those that Yves Bonnefoy bore in his mind while writing the words that have introduced this text, namely the decorations he had seen in Ravenna, inside the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia. In that specific case – as Georges Didi-Hubermann points out in his reading of Bonnefoy's essay – the object conceptualized by those mosaics, marbles, alabaster windows and sarcophagi concerns the transition from life to death, and the possibility of capturing and condensing that very transition in a unique place. An exhibition is not a mausoleum, and an exhibition is never ornamental. Yet as we see here, an exhibition can be about ornaments, and their power to unveil an essential something of a particular place.

I need to do anything that does not require me to get into my bathing suit in front of others.
These are just some of the excuses I have been known to use when it came time to put a bathing suit on. I have been making myself feel horrible for much to long and it is time to stop the nonsense.
still looks 6 month pregnant. Today my daughter asked if i was having another baby (no).
I will not allow my weight to put me on the sidelines anymore. Why should I? My big thighs do not define me. My friends would not like me more if I was a size 4. So why is it so hard for me to love and accept myself.
Considering my attitude and the way I deal with most situations in life I am surprised it took me this long to realize that I don't care what other people think of how I look in a suit. Because I will wear my suit with pride and I will enjoy cooling off with my kiddo's in the pool.
I have been spending days at the splash pad with my kids sitting in the shade while they played. I have been watching women of all shapes and sizes smiling and laughing in the pool, wearing suits that fit both perfectly and not. They did not seem to have a care in the world and their laughter was contagious.
My curious nature then looked to the parents sitting on the side of the pool. They were unhappy, focusing on their phones and laptops, completely oblivious to the endless possibilities of fun and relief just a few feet away. They did not take the plunge (see what I did there) to let go and enjoy the pool. I was guilty of doing the same thing.
So I swam yesterday. I put my suit on at home and proudly put on a dress so that I could walk to the pool with my kids. And I let go, let go of all my insecurities (my fat will just let me float better, right) and we spent a few hours letting the toddler jump into the pool while the two older kids attempted to learn how to swim. Not once did I look around to see if anyone was noticing my belly or cellulite. Why would I? Everyone in the pool was focused on one thing, having fun.
You're completely right. We need to let these pressures that we put on ourselves go so that we can enjoy our children and ourselves. Thanks for the reminder!
Great post! It shouldn't be so difficult to look at ourselves in a positive way.
Good for you for doing that! I can definitely relate to letting my insecurities hold me back from having fun, and I'm inspired by your bravery. You have nothing to be ashamed of!
I have struggled all my life with my weight…no more now i am going to eat what i want just not as much as i like but i am going to live!

OIG Releases Semiannual Report to Congress
Jennifer Siegel
On May 28, 2021, OIG released its Semiannual Report to Congress (the Report). The Report describes OIG's work during the 6-month semiannual reporting period of October 1, 2020, through March 31, 2021 (the Semiannual Reporting Period). Principal Deputy Inspector General Christi Grimm highlighted that OIG is "aggressively investigating pandemic-related fraud that harms individuals and jeopardizes public health efforts."
The Report highlights OIG's audit and investigation activities. During the Semiannual Reporting Period, OIG issued 95 reports in which HHS programs were audited and evaluated to improve efficiency and effectiveness, with an emphasis on preventing fraud and abuse. These reports identified $566.46 million in expected recoveries. The audits identified: costs which were not supported by adequate documentation; expenditures where the intended purpose was unnecessary or unreasonable; and expenditures which were questioned by OIG because of an alleged violation. OIG's audit work additionally identified $919.97 million in potential savings for HHS, should HHS implement the entirety of the OIG's 228 audit and evaluation programs. Further, OIG worked with the DOJ, Medicaid Fraud Control Units, and other Federal, State, and local law enforcement agencies to investigate and prosecute fraud. This investigative work led to $1.37 billion in expected investigative recoveries and 221 criminal actions during the Semiannual Reporting Period.
OIG has additionally implemented methods to promote HHS's COVID-19 response and recovery. During the Semiannual Reporting Period, OIG: (1) analyzed onsite surveys of nursing homes during the pandemic and identified opportunities for infection control and ways to improve overall care provided to patients; (2) conducted a survey of hospitals to conduct an evaluation of how health care delivery was strained due to COVID-19; (3) partnered with six federal OIGs to analyze COVID-19 testing, including the amounts paid by Medicare Part B for these tests; and (4) alerted the public about various types of fraudulent schemes relating to COVID-19.
During the Semiannual Reporting Period, OIG found that the pandemic may be placing Medicaid beneficiaries at a greater risk of opioid misuse or overdose, as during the first 8 months of 2020, at least 5,000 Medicare Part D beneficiaries per month suffered opioid overdoses. OIG stressed that it is essential that CMS and HHS monitor trends in prescriptions for drugs for medication-assisted treatment and naloxone and take appropriate actions if the number of prescriptions begins to fall off.
The Report details specific administrative actions, public health reports, and reviews on improper payments for Medicare and Medicaid services during the Semiannual Reporting Period. OIG provides several recommendations including, but not limited to:
CMS should conduct targeted reviews of Medicare Severity Diagnosis Related Groups (MS-DRGs) and stays that are vulnerable to upcoding, as well as the hospitals that bill them more frequently;
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, CMS should: (1) assess the results of infection control surveys in nursing homes and revise the surveys as appropriate; (2) work with the States to help overcome challenges with PPE and staffing, and (3) clarify expectations for States to complete backlogs of standard surveys and high-priority complaint surveys;
CMS should take steps to provide data to consumers regarding nursing staff turnover and take additional steps to strengthen oversight of nursing home staffing; and
CMS should work with states to expand alternative reimbursement models to address the rising costs for drugs categorized as specialty drugs.
Moreover, OIG found that in February 2021, hospitals reported that operating in "survival mode" for extended periods of time has resulted in new challenges in health care delivery, access and health outcomes. In particular, hospitals have reported that staffing shortages have impacted patient care, and exhaustion and trauma have affected staff's mental health. Many hospitals also continue to report financial instability due to increased pandemic-related expenses and lower revenues from the decreased use of other services. OIG noted that this survey reveals longer-term opportunities for improvement to address challenges that existed before and were ultimately exacerbated by the pandemic.

Q: How can I display two different images at alternate succession each by clicking the image in the picturebox? I want to be able to click on the picturebox and display the image and text on label1, the second click to display the second image and the text in label1 as indicated. successive clicks should be able to display the images in alternate succession in that respect.
Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click

        `PictureBox1.Image = My.Resources.bulb_turned_off_e
        `Label1.Text = "Turn on the light," + TextBox1.Text

        `Label1.Text = "Turn off the light," + TextBox1.Text
        `PictureBox1.Image = My.Resources.bulb_when_turned_on_e

A: Declare a variable isChanged (Private isChanged As Boolean outside of Sub). And consider at the following code:
Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click
    if isChanged = False Then
        PictureBox1.Image = My.Resources.bulb_turned_off_e
        Label1.Text = "Turn on the light," + TextBox1.Text
        isChanged = True ' if not changed, then change image
    Else
        Label1.Text = "Turn off the light," + TextBox1.Text
        PictureBox1.Image = My.Resources.bulb_when_turned_on_e
        isChanged = False ' if changed, then set to back
    End If
End Sub

It should work for you. Enjoy!


I don't know if this was a problem for other pirates, but my nautical level was always lower against ships. I was about 5 or 7 levels lower than my opponent all the time when I go into a new world. Was this a problem for anyone else?
Put the majority of your companions that you won't use on sailing (although I would not recommend it until you get some more companions). It'll take a while for the more companions you have on it but you'll get pretty good results.
Grind ships in areas that are around your nautical level.
Do side quests that give nautical exp.
You must be doing pretty good if your nautical level is usually 5-7 levels lower than the ships there. I had cases where my nautical level was more than 10 levels below the ships!
It was a problem for me, because I was playing before Advanced Companions were added. I managed to raise my Nautical Level by hunting ships, a lot!
Now with Advanced Companions Task of Sailin', you have no excuse for being under-leveled. Set companions on Sailin' to bring your ship level up, you can even have them do this while you're off-line. Also do those side quests that involve hunting ships!
Many pirates neglect their nautical level in their rush to level quickly, so you are not alone. I made it a practice to keep my nautical level near the pirate's character level by sinking extra ships when on a quest, or just helping others sinks ships if I was passing an ongoing battle.Also, many side quests that reward your pirate with Nautical xp are available, and many don't even require you to sink ships.
Using the Sailing companion task whenever a companion ends up on Bed Rest or you log off for the night is a big help as well.
I never grind nautical levels when questing. It's never a problem for me even though ship battles may be harder. Sometimes I'll end up being around 10 nautical levels lower than my pirate level. However, this may vary between each player. I would suggeset setting your unused companions to earning nautical experience.

Library of Celsus in Ephesus

This article has been previously published as a part of book Around Ephesus and Kusadasi: TAN Travel Guide by Izabela Miszczak
The Library of Celsus is probably the most distinctive building commonly associated with Ephesus. The library has a two-storey façade, and its interior is one large room with dimensions of 10.90 to 16.70 meters. This library room was located above the vaulted substructure. The building was surrounded by an additional wall, offering adequate protection from moisture.
When looking closely at the remains of the library two rows of niches located on the inner side walls and rear wall of the building can be seen. It is known that originally there was the third row. The manuscripts were stored on shelves placed in these niches. Access to the scrolls placed on the upper floors was made possible by a two-storey gallery running along three sides of the library. The largest, central niche, decorated with a big arch, served as the place where once stood the statue of the goddess Athena.
The two-story structure was supported by four pairs of columns, between which there were three entrances to the building. At the level of the second floor three windows were placed, illuminating the reading room. The statues adorning the façade of the Library of Celsus represent the Four Virtues: Sophia (Wisdom), Arete (Bravery), Episteme (Knowledge) and Ennoia (Thought).
The Library of Celsus takes its name from Julius Celsus Polemaenus. He was the Roman governor of Asia Minor in the 2nd century AD. He was buried in a sarcophagus under the library. The construction of the building began in 110 AD. The library is a kind of mausoleum donated by his son - Julius Aquila Polemaeanus, who spent 25 000 denars for this purpose. The construction was finished by his descendants in 135 AD.
The interior of the library was destroyed by fire, which left the façade undamaged. It is not known what exactly had happened, but about 400 AD the library no longer functioned. The area in front of it was turned into a pool, which reflected the beautiful façade, and the whole structure had a purely decorative function. At the site of the pool, archeologists have found huge reliefs depicting the victory of Marcus Aurelius over the Parthians. Most of them are now exhibited in Vienna, but several original fragments and replicas of so-called Parthian Monument can also be seen in the Ephesus Museum in Selçuk.
The façade of the library was reconstructed using fragments found during excavations. The reconstruction campaign, led by the German archaeologist Volker Michael Strocka, was conducted in the years 1970-1978. For the purpose of the reconstruction, the fragments excavated by Austrian archaeologists in the beginning of the 20th century were used. As some of these fragments had been bought by the museums in Istanbul and in Vienna, these missing elements had to be replaced by copies. Among the copies, the most prominent are the statues of the Four Virtues as the originals are now in the Museum of Art History (Kunsthistorisches Museum) in Vienna.

Paternity scandal involving Tope Alabi, her ex husband, Mayegun breaks silence (Read)
Following the paternity scandal involving popular gospel singer, Tope Alabi, her ex husband has broken silence.
The ex husband, Mr. Mayegun Oyegoke Olaoye, the baby daddy to Tope Alabi's daughter, Ayomikun revealed that he was not willing to join issues with his daughter, rather waiting patiently for Tope Alabi to deny him of the lady's paternity as her real dad.
Tope Alabi's daughter, Ayomikun has earlier said that she would only recognize Olaoye as her dad if a court rules in the man's favour. Ayomikun, said the man was nowhere to be found in her growing up years, hence she would rather go with Mr. Soji Alabi, her mum's husband that has played fatherly role to her for several years.
Ayomikun added that it would be difficult for her to consider the man she hardly knew as her dad, while there has been a man whose role in her life means a lot as a dad.
But while reacting, Mayegun said, "Like I said, I wouldn't want to respond to whatever Ayomikun, said, it is not in her place. She never gave birth to herself, we did, Myself and Tope Alabi, joining issues with her makes no sense, rather I dare Tope Alabi to come out and tell the world that I am not Ayomikun's father, then I will know what to do."
Olaoye stressed further that, "My young brother who happened to be a witness to my relationship with Tope Alabi has said it all. I have nothing more to say.
It will be recalled that his younger brother came out to give his brother's side of the story when Olaoye was referred to as being irresponsible by some people as the story became known to the public.
In his post, Mayegun's younger brother said: "I know everything that happened because I was staying with my brother (Mayegun Olaoye) at the time. It was in Akure (Ondo State capital) that he met Tope Alabi (whose surname was Obayomi then). My brother does not want us to talk to anybody and this is something he has been trying to avoid but I just have to clear the air. We would have spoken about this issue a long time ago but my brother did not want it to seem like he was damaging her career. Since the news broke, a lot of people have been dragging our family's name in the mud. Stories that my brother maltreated her are false. He is the first born of our family while I'm the fifth child. Our father died at an early age in 1983 and my brother was the one who sponsored his younger ones in school. He has been taking care of his family for a long time, so how can someone like that be described as irresponsible? My brother supported her career so much. I am sure the child, Ayomikun, spoke the way she did because of what she had been told.
We learnt that Ayomikun's surname had been changed from Oyegoke to Alabi. Then, my brother called her (Tope). He said he wanted to see the child and discuss some issues. So, together with some movie marketers, they organised a meeting in 2018 at The Arena shopping complex in Oshodi, Lagos.
"The meeting was attended by marketers like Wastayo (Wasiu Afolayan) and Millennium (Adekunle Owoade). At the meeting, Tope claimed that she did not tell Ayomikun negative things about her father. She said the girl was of age and could make her own decisions.
"She admitted that my brother did not offend her but she was the one that wronged him. She also said Soji often told Ayomikun about her biological father. Tope was also asked why she changed the child's surname to Alabi and she said it was because whenever they had to travel, she would have to provide a letter of consent from the child's father. So, she said she changed her surname to make things easier. Even if a man wants to adopt a child, there is a legal process that ought to be followed, particularly when the child's father is alive.
"Before she left on that day, she was asked to give my brother a phone number that he could reach Ayomikun on and she did. However, when my brother called her (Ayomikun), they did not get along well.
"My brother was dating a lady called Bimpe and she was the one he initially wanted to marry. Tope and my brother met through the late actor, Alade Aromire. She was a member of Alade's 'Ori Ire' caucus in the Yoruba movie industry. My brother used to be close to Alade, and he had a shop at Idumota (Lagos). He always supported the movie industry. He met Tope at a movie location in Akure. He introduced Tope to me and some of our siblings but I didn't think it was anything really serious. However, I was surprised when I later visited him in Lagos and met Tope in his house. I asked him about Bunmi who he had already been making marriage plans with but he waved my comments aside. He told us Tope was pregnant for him.
Meanwhile, my mum who was a midwife examined Tope and said she was not pregnant. My mum said she had prayed about it and it was revealed to her that he should not marry a light-skinned woman (like Tope). But my brother got annoyed with her for saying that and told her not to come to his house again. At a stage, Tope was not happy with our mother. Later, she said she had a miscarriage. After some time, she got pregnant again and eventually had Ayomikun.
"Barely a year after Tope gave birth to Ayomikun, she moved out of my brother's house with Ayomikun. My brother begged her profusely but she refused to budge. Prior to that, there was a day I visited my brother's house and knocked the door for a long time before I was attended to. I later saw Soji Alabi, who was a sound engineer and producer, and Tope.
"They said they were busy recording in the studio. I had also been hearing some rumours that there was an affair between Tope and Soji, so I told my brother. But, my brother was very angry when I told him that and he actually beat me. He was deeply in love with Tope. When she left, she took the master tape of her album that my brother sponsored. As a matter of fact, it took him some time to recover from the experience.
"It was not more than a year after she left my brother that she got married to Soji. It was after their wedding that my brother married Bunmi, the lady he was dating before Tope came into the picture. However, she (Bunmi) died in the course of giving birth to their second child. After some time, my brother remarried and he is doing well. Before then, my brother had organised an elaborate christening for Ayomikun that was well attended by many of the major movie marketers of that time.
"After Tope left his house, she took the child to her mother's place. My brother often sent me and another brother of ours to check on the child. He even used to call Tope. Our mother also regularly called Tope's mother. Also, Tope used to go to my brother's office at Idumota to collect money for Ayomikun's upkeep.
"After Tope released the successful album, 'Ore ti o Common', she took Ayomikun from her mother's house. It was then my brother had to pull back. You would not expect him to be going to the house of his married ex to see the child. He could have been ridiculed. He just wants to establish the fact that Ayomikun has a biological father who is alive. He has other male and female children, so it is not as if he is desperate to have a child.
"My brother is a very gentle person and he has refused to talk about this. However, the issue has gone beyond him and our family's name is being dragged in the mud. That is why I have come out to speak." He concluded

This is me sadly... I have a messy desk. Maybe one of my goals for 2019 should be to clean this puppy off. Hey, a messy desk could cost you a promotion. According to job site Ladders, a messy desk can hurt your chances of gaining more pay and responsibilities at work.
Dishes and food containers. Bringing your lunch to work is one thing. But having a week's collection of used coffee mugs is rude to your coworkers and could suggest a lack of time management skills.
A swarm of papers or sticky notes. According to a recent survey of senior managers, having a messy or disorganized workspace was the "most distracting or annoying" thing about employee work areas.
Anything political. Even if you don't openly talk politics at work, simply keeping political stuff on your desk or computer screen runs the risk of making you look inappropriate in the office.
Toys It really depends on the vibe at your office, but keeping a bunch of toys on your desk can make you seem immature and less professional.
Out-of-season decorations. If you've still got some Christmas decorations up in your cubicle, it's time to take 'em down... Please. Otherwise you might look lazy or forgetful.

Tools required:	Hammer, Posidrive Screwdriver (Battery operated is useful), Stanley Knife, Saw, Socket Set and Step Ladder to felt roof.
Estimated Assembly time: Two people, four hours. We recommend pilot drilling screw holes first.
1.	Treat underside of floor – if not already treated. Lay the floor panel (A) in its desired position (remember to leave enough space at the back of the building for roof overhang and maintenance). It is essential that the floor is on a solid and level base, otherwise the building will not fit together properly and the doors may not fit flush. Place the panels around the floor – it will help you to understand how they fit together.
2.	Position the large plain side (C) on the back edge of the floor (the lip on the bottom of the side overhangs the floor). While your assistant holds the gable place a small plain panel (B) on the floor to form a corner. Check that the sides are sitting flat on the floor and the panels are butted together and level at the top, screw them together from the inside using two of the screws provided.
3.	Fix the other small plain side panels (B) as before with two screws, again making sure the sections are flat on the floor.
4. Repeat with the window panels (D) one on either side.
5.	Before fitting the door section (E) remove the key from the door. Unlock the door and attach the handles. Screw the door panel to the window sides from the inside as before.
6.	Before fitting the roof drill two holes for the finials (J). Screw the finials to the roof from underneath (you may want to use silicon to seal between the finial and the roof).
7.	Carefully place the fibre glass roof (F) on the building so that the overhang is equal all the way round. Before fixing check that the roof is sitting flat with the sides, if not it is possible the floor is not level and will need packing in one corner.
8.	With the roof square check that the sides and gables are sitting flat on the floor. Screw the panels to the floor using one screw on the small panels and two on the large panels.
9.	To secure the roof pre drill 8 holes from the inside of the roof (one in the middle of each side of roof). Then fix through the top of the roof into the framing on the top of the sides with the hexagon head screws provided. Place caps on top of the screws.
10.	Nail the angled cover strips (I) to the outside of the building to cover the joins between the panels using the 40mm nails provided.
11.	Glaze the building from the outside using the beading and pins provided. You will need to remove the holding pins from the beading and discard, place in the glass and then nail the beading into place using panel pins. DO NOT push the beading too tight against the glass as this will cause it to crack. We advise you wear gloves when handling glass. You may wish to seal the windows with silicone.

Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) is the state program to provide therapies to children under age three with autism, speech delays, Down syndrome and other disabilities and developmental delays. Our November 2016 report found a disturbing decline in the number of babies and toddlers served by Texas ECI amid state funding cuts.
Our research also found that enrollment declines hit certain communities the hardest. Among the counties with the largest populations of young children, the greatest reductions in enrollment occurred in Collin County (37 percent decline from 2011 to 2015), Denton County (32 percent), and Harris County (31 percent).
The following map allows Texans to review the data for their own county.
The Legislature is currently making two decisions that are critical to providing children with access to ECI: Whether to fully fund expected ECI enrollment growth over the next two years and whether to restore Medicaid reimbursement rates for children's therapies.

Alcohol is a mind-altering substance that directly affects the central nervous system (CNS). Alcohol is a depressant and it depresses the part of the brain associated with inhibition which is what makes many people feel more confident and less anxious. This changing of brain chemistry though is what can create alcohol addiction or dependency. By using a substance that affects your CNS regularly, you disrupt the existing chemical balance in your brain. This is what creates a need for the substance and in greater quantities.
Alcohol-induced dementia is more common than people realize. Dementia is a collection of symptoms, not a diagnosis. Dementia symptoms are depression, anxiety, confusion, disorientation, paranoia, loss of motor skill function, coordination, trouble speaking, trouble problem solving, trouble handling complex tasks, and memory loss. Although aging is a large reason for dementia, studies have shown that alcohol use not only increases the likelihood of dementia by age 65, but alcohol users also tend to suffer dementia more frequently than casual or non-drinkers.
In addition to this, Korsakoff Syndrome causes dementia and is most commonly brought on by the heavy and frequent consumption of alcohol.

Conway Defends Protesters, Says Governors Have 'Physically Distanced From Common Sense'
White House Adviser Kellyanne Conway speaks during an on-camera interview at the White House on December 16, 2019. (Photo by Samuel Corum/Getty Images)
By Cristina Cabrera
April 20, 2020 11:52 a.m.
White House senior adviser Kellyanne Conway on Monday jabbed at the governors overseeing stay-at-home orders that have sparked Trump-approved protests.
Conway admitted to Fox News host Sandra Smith that the protesters were violating the governors' social distancing guidelines, backed by the White House, aimed at halting the spread of COVID-19.
"But at the same time, some of these governors have physically distanced from common sense," she added.
The adviser asserted that the protesters were "not fomenting domestic rebellion."
"I look at those people and I see the forgotten men and the forgotten women economically," she told Smith.
Conway also repeated President Donald Trump's accusation that several governors have "gone too far" in their efforts to stop the virus.
"Some have been more concerned about, I think, controlling the populations than protecting them," she said. "And the President is just making that clear."
Protests against the stay-at-home orders have erupted over the past several days, with demonstrators (some of them armed and waving Trump flags) crowding together at their state capitals to demand that businesses deemed "non-essential" be allowed to reopen.
However, White House COVID-19 task force member Dr. Anthony Fauci warned on Monday that protesters would be shooting themselves in the foot if they got what they wanted and went back to work at this time.
"If you jump the gun and go into a situation where you have a big spike, you're going to set yourself back," he said. "So as painful as it is to go by the careful guidelines of gradually phasing into a reopening, it's going to backfire."

Hong Kong (China) received an overall rating of Largely Compliant in its assessment against the international standard of exchange of information on request (EOIR) handled over the period from 1 October 2014 to 30 September 2017. Its legal framework is generally in line with the international standard, notably with recent improvements made on access to information and the extensive extension of its network of exchange partners. Hong Kong (China) has responded reasonably well to the steep increase in requests for information in the review period. However, some improvements are now required to ensure the availability of beneficial ownership information on all the entities and legal arrangements and to continue to ensure that the new obligation on companies to maintain a register of significant controllers is well monitored in practice. Hong Kong should also take measures to ensure that obligations to maintain reliable accounting records by all relevant entities and arrangements (including those solely earning non-taxable income) are satisfactorily enforced.


OVERSIZE HEAD TUBE : Oversized 44mm headtube to join the 1.5" Columbus Futura Caliper monocoque fork. The new design of the rear dropouts improves the connection with the rear stays and reduces stress concentration. Completely hand built, in Italy.
XCR FEATURES: The austenite parts in the martensite structure generate a particular elastic response of the tubes of the frame, for unique handling that creates a more direct, spontaneous bond with the road, especially in downhill stretches and at high speeds. The XCR steel has better weight/stiffness ratio compared to aluminum and titanium alloys.
COLUMBUS FEL 1,5": Oversize head tube with the 1,5" Columbus Fel monocoque fork increase the front stiffness and the control of the bike.
The Cinelli XCR frame – welded from a custom drawn Columbus XCR tubeset – has been designed very simply to offer riders the purest and most direct experience of the cutting edge of steel cycling technology.
Released by Columbus in 2007, the XCR stainless steel tubeset represents the most important step forward in performance steel bicycle technology of the last 25 years. XCR was the world's first – and still today is the world's only – cold drawn seamless stainless steel tubeset. It is made from a martensitic stainless alloy whose superior mechanical characteristics (in particular its Ultimate Tensile Strength and End Strength) allow for sub 1,5 kg frame weights and superior weight/stiffness ratios than either aluminum or titanium. Additionally the structure of the XCR's martensitic steel is able to absorb vibrations noticeably more rapidly and uniformly than any austenitic steel, resulting in subtle but uniquely "zingy" ride quality.
In order to exalt this technology, Cinelli's XCR frame features the classic Cinelli Italian stage racing geometry, an oversized 44mm headtube, proprietary winged-C dropouts, a CNC'd Titanium headbadge featuring the original Cinelli heraldic logo, and all its tubes are hand-polished to a mirror finish, emphasizing the stainless steel construction.
A Magic Mirror XCR photographed on the factory floor that Columbus shares with Cinelli.
Emilvano Montorio, Columbus head of production, explains what it takes to draw a set of XCR tubes.

As the world is in the middle of an industrial revolution, a monster appears that cannot be defeated unless its heart, which is protected by a layer of iron, is pierced. By infecting humans with its bite, the monster can create aggressive and undead creatures known as Kabane. On the island Hinomoto, located in the far east, people have built stations to shelter themselves from these creatures. People access the station, as well as transport wares between them, with the help of a locomotive running on steam, called Hayajiro. Ikoma, a boy who lives in the Aragane station and helps to build Hayajiro, creates his own weapon called Tsuranukizutsu in order to defeat the creatures. One day, as he waits for an opportunity to use his weapon, he meets a girl named Mumei, who is excused from the mandatory Kabane inspection. During the night, Ikuma meets Mumei again as he sees Hayajiro going out of control. The staff on the locomotive has turned into the creatures. The station, now under attack by Kabane, is the opportunity Ikoma has been looking for.Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress featuring Tasuku Hatanaka and Maaya Uchida has one or more episodes streaming with subscription on Prime Video.
