Clever design, functionality, and personal style are the keys to creating a space that works well when building a tiny house. Every cm of space that can be saved will help your tiny function well as home or workspace. Living tiny does not have to feel like living in a shoe box and taking the time to plan well will save you a lot of headaches and add to your quality of life in the long run. Think multi-functional design and you are on the right track to having everything you need right there in your tiny home.
It's far simpler to opt for fewer multipurpose pieces of furniture that will serve you as an individual than trying to pack many single use items into a small space. Not only do multifunctional elements give you more space, they can often save you time, money and energy as it is far simpler to take care of one item than many. It can be difficult to include every object that you might want. Taking the time to do a needs assessment is well worth the effort. Asking yourself the following questions is a great place to start.
How often do I do the activities listed from the previous questions?
Make a list of all the activities that you do on a regular basis, how often you do them and what is required for those activities. Now that you have your "must have" lists, you can start thinking about how to combine the uses for in your tiny home plan. For example, you may love doing yoga four times a week so you will need to be able to create the required space. A Murphy bed, to create a convertible space, may suit your lifestyle better than a fixed bed given you don't do yoga every day. Perhaps you love to cook for people every now and then so a great kitchen, with an expandable table or area that can be converted to an entertaining space might be on your refined "must have" list. Maybe you are like me and like to eat raw and simple food, so a large kitchen isn't needed but fresh food storage is an absolute must. Maybe you work from home two days per week, but don't need an office the rest of the time, If so, a convertible workspace or fold down desk could be a good option. Do you like having your best friend stay over (rather than have her drive home after a few drinks)? A convertible couch or beanbag bed could be a better solution than losing space to a second bedroom. You get the idea.
From multifunctional smart wall beds to clever storage solutions and convertible coffee tables, there are plenty of options to consider. With a little creative thinking and great planning, you can create a space to suit most, if not all, of your needs.


World will miss economic benefit of 1.8 billion young people | JERA International – Justice Equality Rights Access International.
The world is in danger of missing a golden opportunity for development and economic growth, a "demographic dividend", as the largest cohort of young people ever known see their most economically productive years wasted, a major UN population report warned last week.
"When young people can claim their rights to health, education and decent working conditions, they become a powerful force for economic development and positive change.
"This opportunity [for] a demographic dividend is a fleeting moment that must be claimed quickly or lost," said the UN Population Fund (UNFPA), in its Global Population Report, published just days before the UN forecasted the world population will pass 7 billion. Of this 7 billion, 1.8 billion are aged between 10 and 24, and 90% of those live in the developing world.
"Governments that are serious about eradicating poverty should also be serious about providing the services, supplies and information that women need to exercise their reproductive rights," said Babatunde Osotimehin, executive director of the UNFPA.
With high population growth, many scientists predict that the pressure on food and agricultural productivity and other natural resources may become intolerable, and conditions for the poorest people will deteriorate further, rather than improving.


Question. I have a few questions about deletions. If I contact a collection agency and offer to pay in exchange for a full deletion and they refuse to delete the file will that change the date for it to drop off since I made contact with them?
Also, if I receive in writing confirmation that they will delete the file upon payment and they do not remove it from my file, what recourse do I have?
They would have their money, but what proof or guarantee will I receive that it will be removed? And then my final question is there creditors that will not delete files no matter what you pay?
Answer. Contacting a collection agency, whether it be to discuss payment, make payment arrangements or dispute the debt does not change the date the debt will drop off from your credit reports. The date in which a debt is due to drop off a credit report is based off the date of first delinquency (DOFD) and is not supposed to change.
The date of first delinquency is the date you initially became 30 days late and never brought the account current and a charge-off ensued. Once the account has been charged off, the date of first delinquency should never change.
The DOFD starts the clock on the 7 year reporting time period which determines how long a negative item can remain on your credit reports. It is the Fair Credit Report Act's Compliance/Obsolescence Date and should never be changed.
Should a debt collector or original creditor change the DOFD an illegal act, called Re-Aging has occurred. Read more about Re-aging an account and what to do if an account on your credit report has been re-aged.
What you will have to be careful about is not to restart your state's statute of limitations on debt. The statute of limitations on debt is different than the 7.5 year reporting time of negative items on credit reports. Depending on your state's laws you could restart the debt statute of limitations which basically means you can be sued for any unpaid debt still under the statute of limitations. Once the statute of limitations has passed, the creditor or debt collector can no longer bring a lawsuit against you to collect the debt.
When you request a pay for deletion any and all negotiations should be done in writing. You should stay off the telephone with debt collectors, especially if you are attempting to negotiate a pay for deletion or settlement.
Conducting negotiations in writing protects you by creating a paper trail. If the debt collector agrees to a pay for deletion, get the agreement upfront, in writing and signed by a person in authority at the collection agency.
The agreement should be signed and in your possession before you send any money and it is your recourse; your proof. Once you are armed with the agreement and the collection agency does not honor that agreement, you can sue.
You may even be able to present a copy of that agreement to the credit reporting agencies and demand they delete the entry from your credit reports based upon that signed agreement.
The bottom line is to get everything in writing before you pay any monies. There are several examples of pay for deletion letters on the Internet and you can use the pay for deletion sample letter on this site as an example also.
i received a letter from a debt collector stating that they're willing to settle for less than the full balance owed. The leter also stated that once the receive payment, they will request deletion of the tradeline from my credit file. The only thing with this letter is that there is no signature from an authorizing party. Should I send the payment anyway?

In a new booklet we tell the story of the Marine biology research station at Inhaca Island in Mozambique which is supported by Sweden. Inhaca is a unique environment in the Maputo bay.
Over the years scientists have conducted cutting-edge research, not only in the field of marine biology but also on subjects such as terrestrial flora and fauna, geology, oceanography and socio-economy.
Inhaca Island and the Marine Biology Research Station (EBMI) have served as the cradle of modern marine research in Mozambique. The ecosystems on the island represent most coastal Mozambican habitats in microcosm, making the island an excellent natural laboratory for a wide spectrum of research, right on the doorstep of Maputo.
The booklet tells the story of Inhaca and its exceptional nature. You meet some of the key researchers on marine biology in Eastern Africa as well as people who have lived on the island for generations and whose livelihoods depend on its resources. The links between them and the surrounding environment are many and intertwined. Together they tell the story of a unique and fragile environment, and of a centre of vibrant marine research.
The booklet has been produced by the embassy of Sweden in cooperation with Universidade Eduardo Mondlande. Text by Anette Emanuelsson and David Isaksson and graphic design by Lisa Jansson. The publishing of the booklet is coordinated with the re-inauguration of the station.

Preparing Professional Musicians at Fermatta Music Academy
By Robert Morrison
August 29, 2014 Updated: April 23, 2016
Music schools that focus on preparing students for a professional musical career are more relevant than ever in today's ever evolving music industry. Those that focus solely on traditional, formal musical training are having to play catch up. Or as Jan Carlo DeFan, lead guitarist of Elan and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Fermatta Music Academy, puts it: "In the past anybody with an instrument was called a musician. Becoming an agent or music executive did not require a musical background. However, with new technology and advances in music education, the culture is changing."
Fermatta Music Academy is a Mexico City-based music school and leader in professional music education and training that has a curriculum that is fully accredited by Mexico's Secretary of Public Education. At Fermatta, students not only receive formal music education, but they gain valuable performance experience and the ability to compare skills with like-minded musicians. But the academy also instructs its students on many often overlooked facets of the music industry such music direction, composition, production, sound and recording engineering. It also offers training for corporate music careers such as agent, manager or music executive. Since its founding in 1993, Jan Carlo and a group of music industry professionals have worked with Fermatta Music Academy to establish a curriculum that prepares students for various professional music careers.
Fermatta Music Academy began as a small school for contemporary music in Mexico City when it was founded in 1993. But academy was unique because its founders and facility are comprised of award winning musicians and music industry experts. Their knowledge and personal experience transformed the academy into a major educational institution with certificate, undergraduate, and graduate degree programs. The academy's initial success has led to additional campus locations in Mexico City and Guadalajara, Jan Carlo's hometown. Today, students have the opportunity to study various forms of contemporary music, engineering and production, composition, voice, and instrumentals. The academy utilizes the latest technologies and tools in classrooms, recording studios and labs to give students hands-on experience and provide them with the tools to become successful in the developing music industry. M-Utveckling Publishing Group produces and distributes the academy's textbooks and learning materials.
Fermatta's commitment to professional music education can be seen in its leadership and instructors. Chairman of Fermatta Jan Carlo is known to the public as the lead guitarist of Elan, but he is also an accomplished producer and has held several executive positions. White Stripes guitarist Jack White serves as honorary dean of the academy. Fermatta also counts among its professors and instructors world famous musicians and music professionals. Grammy Award-winning guitarist Steve Vai, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, Toto guitarist Steve Lukather, and Eric Clapton's bassist Nathan East have all taught at the school. Award -winning music engineers Michael Brauer and Eddie Kramer have been instructors at Fermatta.
As today's music industry continues to grow and evolve, music schools across the world are beginning to understand the need for professional musical education alongside traditional, formal music education. This understanding is epitomized by Fermatta Music Academy, which has been focused on professional musical education since its inception. Good music schools also provide you with the opportunity to work and build relationships with well-known and skilled faculty. These relationships provide students access to the music world they may be able to acquire any other way. And providing practical expertise and exposure to world-class professional musicians is perhaps what Fermatta does best.


My fingers stuttered over my keyboard as I tried to write a birthday post for my blogging chum, Mr Devine. I wanted to say something more than: Happy Birthday, Big Boy!!! I wanted to write a post that would be memorable, considered, heart-felt, and almost as good as eating a ludicrously overfilled cake. I stared at the screen, my cursor blinking unhelpfully.
Perhaps a glorious picture of the Devon sky at night with a shooting star would impress him…..
Devon sky at night with shooting star? Or close-up of a black piece of paper?
Or maybe he would be filled with joy to see a picture of a crashed UFO that turned up on my doorstep on Sunday?
Snow drift… or crashed UFO?
And then I remembered…. I had just the thing….a bird with a very long beak!!!! Even better, an unidentified bird with a very long beak!!!
I had done it!!! I had surpassed myself!!! With this birthday post I was spoiling everyone!!! And, there was only one thing left to say to Mr Devine: Happy Birthday, Big Boy!!!!
This entry was posted in Personal, Silliness and tagged March 2018 - the coldest March ever, Mr Devine's Birthday, snowdrift, The sky at night on March 22, 2018 by Scarlet.
Oh, how wonderful! Thank you, Ms Scarlet! You really have spoiled everyone!
Now. Where's my Ferrero Rocher pyramid?
I hope you are having a lovely day, Mr Devine! Yes, the shooting star was probably making a huge loop, hence the change of direction, ahem….
And thank you for identifying the woodcock… your prize will be in the post.
A Snipe! I really should have looked it up in my bird book! Thank you, Jon. And apologies for the awful picture…. my phone camera has its limitations when it comes to zooming in on birds.
Whether it was a Snipe or a Woodcock I feel very lucky to have seen it in my garden as they both seem to be rare in the South West!
Mr Devine is very tall, Eryl, and as Jon said, he has very long legs and like to wade by the sea edge in Norfolk.
I missed all the best snowdrifts with my camera…. this one is good… but nothing like the ones we had with the beast from the east. I feel sad about not taking more pictures as I might not get another chance for another ten years. They all looked like sculptures…. I bet you often get to see this sort of thing in Scotland though!
Oh no! You are making me feel worse about not getting more pictures now!!
Passing along happy birthday wishes to Mr. Devine. The snowy UFO is certainly worth sharing. The first picture ? I suspect if you stare at long enough you'll see a face. Having a your favorite drink while (whilst ?) staring will probably help.
Yes, I wish I could have spent longer with the drifts, but it was so cold! I am lazy and ended up being cosy by the wood burning stove… once the wood was in then so was I!
Snipe? Bit out of the way, in't it? Probably blown westward by the Beast. (No, not our friendly Beastie, the one from Siberia).
I've never seen this bird in my garden before, Dinah, I hope the poor thing was okay, it did seem to be off course.
The UFO is proving to be popular 😊.
Thank you for the lovely fotos of the snow art and wildlife. They are spectacular!
Cheers and Best wishes for good weather, good fun, and good times!
Yes… but is it one of your ducks.., Mr Ducks?
It's the Devon Roswell ! And I very much like your sky at night.
We still have snow here, but the Franconian snowdrift is generally a much smaller affaire, taking a good shot would require to lie on the ground, or better, in a ditch. I am sorry, no ufo images from here.
Mr Mags…. Oh, the dropped capital letters at the beginning of the post! Yes, I have been using them on and off since 2016! When I remember! It's a simple bit of code….. she says, as if she knows something clever, but just copied and pasted it from a techie site.
A pre-op photo of Beaky before the nose job?
Always better late than never, Savvy!!
Taking a leaf out of Mr Lax's book: [off topic – sorry] Have you managed to procure some Jelly Babies yet for Savvy's PEEPS/Jelly Babies contest? Or are you still house-bound?
Ah. Yes. About that……. let me just nip out to the shops. AGAIN.
Had the mysterious bird with the very long beak arrived in the UFO, do you think?
Happy Easter, to You and Yours, Scarlet!!!
I hope you are having a happy Easter too, Mr Swings!

Irish Travelers
Irish Travelers - Marriage and Family
Marriage. Irish Travelers are endogamous. There are more females than males within the Traveler communities, so competition for marriage partners is strong. Marriages are still arranged by the mothers, sometimes at birth, although these early agreements are often broken. The young couple may have a say in finalizing the match, and rarely do the mothers arrange a marriage without prior approval from the couple. Traveler men are usually over twenty-one years of age when they marry, but their brides may be as young as twelve with the average being between fifteen and eighteen. An exchange of money, up to $200,000 in cash for the young man, is not uncommon among the more affluent Traveler families. Among the less affluent Georgia Travelers, the number of women marrying outside the group has been steadily increasing. Without a large dowry to offer a boy's family, these girls must choose between the possibility of remaining unmarried for life or marrying outside the group. Mississippi, Georgia, and Texas Travelers do marry across groups, but the growing population of each group contributes to a reduction in the exchange. Marriage between second cousins is allowed by Irish Travelers and is within the law of most southern states. Local officials have adapted to the cultural practices of the Irish Travelers by waiving the requirement for a court order from juvenile court for a marriage involving someone under fifteen. Weddings are usually held after Christmas because of the likelihood of a large number of Travelers being in the villages for the holidays. The holidays provide the Travelers with a chance to arrange marriages and then to organize the Ceremony before the families return to the road.
Domestic Unit. Residential units are usually composed of nuclear family members. Grandparents, even when widowed, may maintain their own residence unless disabled. The grandparent whose health is poor will live with a daughter and her family. The unmarried children continue to live with their parents until marrying.
Socialization. Traveler children from age five are socialized to their future roles in the community. The young girls learn to take care of younger siblings or cousins, clean the home, and manage money. The young boys begin helping their fathers in their occupations at an early age, often traveling with the older men for long periods of time.

Please spell our ethnic minority correctly; Irish Traveller or Irish-American Traveller. As an Irish Traveller, I recognize the importance of discussing our culture, traditions, and way-of-life with others. However, I also accept as true that out-and-out lies, propaganda, and rumors must be confronted with the truth. Is it possible to convince someone that a lie is, in fact, a lie when they refuse to consider the accused clarification? The author has introduced several points, and I will try to address those concerns. There is no competition for marriage partners in the Irish Traveller community. Our ethnic minority has and continue to practice arranged marriages which are frowned on by American society. The bride and groom make the final decision to marry. Arranged marriages are an accepted practice in Afghanistan, Africa, Bangladesh, India, Iran, Iraq, Ireland, Japan, United Kingdom, and numerous other countries. Underage marriages, brides as young as 12-years-of-age. Irish Travellers are strict Roman-Catholic and at the center of Murphy Village in the state of South Carolina sets Saint Edward the Confessor Catholic Church. It is against canon law for a 12-year-old to marry, a direct violation of church rules. NBC-Dateline (episode: All in the Family) used a picture of a girl wearing her First Communion traditional dress, a rite of passage in Catholicism, and perverted it into something unholy for sensationalism and ratings. A tidbit about the law: (A marriage is a legal binding agreement between two consenting adults, a child cannot enter into a contract; therefore, there is no underage marriage in law or otherwise.) A dowry has been an Irish tradition for centuries. Local officials do not have the authority to circumvent state law and grant permission for underage marriages. Such a union would be a violation of state law, and the union would not be legal or binding. Weddings are traditionally scheduled for holidays to allow everyone to attend.
The topic of socialization would take too long to explain. If you are interested in our culture, traditions, and way-of-life buy my book.

Engaging in activities you enjoy, and which also involve some appropriate level of exertion, on a daily basis, is crucial for seniors. Exercise helps maintain good cardiovascular function, helps manage weight, keeps up your appetite and builds and preserves strength that'll help you recover quickly when needed.
Seniors often have specific dietary requirements, such as food fortified with calcium and vitamin D to help strengthen weakening bone structures. Nonetheless, a balanced diet is always essential, so make sure you get all essential nutrients from your meals on a daily basis.
At such advanced ages, the body's susceptibility to infections and other attacks increases, even if to a slight extent. Also, the risk of contracting breast cancer in women, and prostate cancer in men heightens, and should warrant more regular screenings.
Old age brings with it an inevitable fragility of the body. Following sound and healthful tips consistently can help stave of unfortunate medical conditions or accidents, allow seniors to live their lives with dignity right till the end.

I'm almost 36 years old and I still live with my parents.
Yet it is considered to be perfectly normal from the Asian standard way of living. It is the new normal that I have accepted.
I first 'officially' moved back into my parents' place following my separation from my then husband. Against all odds, I decided to move out. The lawyer I met was furious about it and called me stupid – I din't hire her!
But I am so thankful for my parents. Who took my son and me back in a heartbeat without any judgment. If my separation were to happen back when I was still living in the US, things might be so different. In America, I have no relatives nor many friends where I used to lived.
My family was my safety net that allowed me to fell freely when my whole world came tumbling down.
I rebuilt my life, I moved on and nearly 5 years later I am still here. Living under my parents' roof. I help cared for my parents when they fell ill along with my brothers. Only one of my two brothers had moved out – just two blocks down the street. My youngest one still lives here too.
There are lots of times where I miss living alone, having a place to call my own. Me, the independent girl who left the nest earlier than my brothers ever did. I was so used to do things my own way and in my own terms. That's what I miss most about having my own space.
Yet I realized I still have a purpose to be here, to assist my mother and keep her company while my father works many miles away from home. To allow my son to get to know his grandparents and uncles and forming a strong bond that will last a lifetime. Maybe it's a blessed chance for me to enjoy every second my gorgeous niece whenever she's in my arms, to kiss her delicious cheeks often and to knit lifelong ties between an aunty and her niece.
As eager as I am for the new chapter of my life to unfold with Dan, I realized I am on a borrowed times at the moment. That thing might and will change for us. People keep asking when we will get married after we announced our engagement and some already asked where we will make a home for ourselves since he is still in Melbourne and I am in Jakarta. Only 3235.99 miles apart from each other!
To the nice friends and people who keep asking, I can only smile and tell you guys that we will reveal everything in due time. We are not rushing to the altar. We are planning to spend the rest of our lives together and in that alone lays a beautiful precious feeling.
So what does one grown up woman do then?
Smile widely and absorb every essence of blessings that still allows her to share her life with the people that she loves oh and takes some photos too!
How is your living arrangement? Do you live close to your family or far apart? Please do share your story.
I have moved out from home since college. Not really moved out because I went for college in Bandung. But after graduate I went straight to India for two years, and then back to Indonesia straight to Lombok. After that in almost 5 years I have moved between three countries, 3 cities. I don't feel like staying back in Jakarta with my mom…but never say never 🙂 Anyway my mom normally is the one who comes stay with us (except the overseas part).
What an experience you had! I left home the first time to go to high school in Jakarta that felt like ages ago hahaha. Thanks for sharing!
I'm not mbak 🙂 the space in my heart and life is too expensive to give to unnecessary things hahaha. Thank you for the reminder. Makasih udah mampir ya.
Aww I wish you and your husband can soon move back to Jakarta and have your wishes come true ya Mbak. Such a noble wish. Believe, pray and work hard towards your goals…I'm sure it will come true.
Enjoy what your life now, aku tinggal di rumah kontrakan coz my parents so far from my city and my mother in law must take care cucu dari anak yang lainnya, so…yang terbaik semoga hasilnya baik.
Hi Mak salam kenal balik. Makasih udah mampir ya.
Iya aku sekarang udah bisa enjoy karena mikir nanti kalau aku nikah pasti akan pindah dari rumah dan malah ada perasaan agak sedih ngebayang nanti ibuku gimana.
Kalau tinggal sama mertua pasti juga ada suka-dukanya ya Mak?
Kak Oyeennnnn … selalu suka dengan tulisan2nya sejak dulu.
And keep on blogging ya kakkk … Love it !!!

Yep, Fukushima. After the earthquake and during the ongoing nuclear crisis.
While people left, right and sideways are talking about supporting Fukushima, and Fukushima this and Fukushima that, very few actually do what they preach. Apart from the volunteers and those engaged with all sorts of NPOs (some of questionable usefulness, at least in my opinion), the general thinking seems to be that it's best to stay away. Consuming produce from Tohoku? God forbid, lest we suddenly sprout a third arm and a couple of extra eyes. Actually going to Fukushima? Are you like, insane, or something?
On the Tohoku expressway we saw convoys of SDF disaster dispatch trucks. We also saw trucks hauling earth-moving equipment, some from as far away as Kobe. We took the expressway to Nasu and then switched to local roads.
Yeah, something. Because we live relatively close to the Fukushima border, we thought it would be a grand idea to see for ourselves all those third arms up there. Sadly, we haven't noticed any. Maybe people camouflage them under extra clothing. Or maybe the Tohokans glow in the dark, instead. Unfortunately, even though we went to Aizu Wakamatsu twice, we haven't stayed the night, so I can't tell you whether they glow or not.
Easy! I'm wearing a mask because of my dreadful asthma and pollen allergies, not because of radiation.
Either way, we went there to show that as long as you stay away from the exclusion zone around the crippled nuclear plant, it's safe to visit Fukushima. That tourists are loved and desperately needed up there right now. And that anything that can be done to support the local economy is welcomed.
We ended up supporting the economy at a local Aizu ramen shop (right behind the Lion d'Or supermarket on route 118). The place, called "Tonchinkan", was of questionable cleanliness and decor, but their ramen - delicious.
In fact, it was so good, we decided to return there during our second trip to Aizu Wakamatsu.
The idea was to drive up to Aizu Wakamatsu and see the famed Tsuruga castle over there. I, of course, was hoping for sakura. Our first trip in mid April was so lovely, even though the cherries were not ready to bloom just yet, that we decided to return two weeks later to see the castle in all its cherry blossom glory.
Even though the weather was gorgeous during our first trip, it was still pretty chilly up in the mountains. When we stopped at Ematto, there was still snow on the ground.
No wonder then, that when we finally reached Aizu, there were plenty of cherry trees, but no cherry blossoms.
Taken on April 17th, 2011 - still no sakura.
We consoled ourselves by going inside the castle (ticket 500 yen per person, you get a free gift with your ticket purchase). The "I love you Fukushima" song played in a constant loop by the ticket office. There were a lot of visitors at the castle, .and even though I seemed to be the only westerner there, nobody paid me any attention.
You get a set of chopsticks with the Tokugawa emblem when you buy a ticket to enter the castle.
Once inside the castle, we consoled ourselves some more by purchasing stupid amounts of souvenirs. Ok, I consoled myself.
The castle itself - it's magnificent. There was no doubt we'd be coming back when the cherries are in full bloom.
On the way back home Mister was amusing me with an endless stream of historical trivia about the Boshin War. And we stopped by at Shirakawa to see the castle there - what a shocker that was!
This is my own entry to the Show Me Japan series.

Liverpool signing this 21-year-old Serie A sensation would surely add more quality to their top-class attack
by Siddhant Lazar April 2, 2019, 1:30 pm
Liverpool opinion: Klopp wants to sign Federico Chiesa – a good option?
Italian news outlet TuttoNapoli has revealed that Liverpool have joined the chase for Fiorentina star Federico Chiesa. Though the Reds are doing their best to outdo Manchester City this season, Jurgen Klopp's team is far from perfect.
However, with eight games left in the Premier League, Liverpool do have pole position with a two-point lead. They've won four out of their last five games to reach that position but Manchester City do have one game in hand.
That being said, Liverpool's team is far from perfect and could be picked apart next summer. Sadio Mane has been linked with a move to Real Madrid (Mirror), while Mohamed Salah has struggled over the last few weeks.
The Egyptian has struggled to score in the last few games, as he has just one goal in his last eight matches. This has put the onus on Mane, and the 26-year-old has stepped up.
But that being said, it's no surprise that the Reds are after Fiorentina star Federico Chiesa. A Viola youth product, Chiesa has fought his way up into the ranks of the first-team and made quite an impact in the Serie A.
His precious talent has always been on show for the Viola, however, it wasn't until his second full season that Chiesa really came to the fore, producing 15 goals in all competitions. This season, however, he's taken things to another level and already has 11 goals and 8 assists to his name.
That is a phenomenal contribution for any player in the world, let alone a 21-year-old forward who has his father's reputation to live up to. For Liverpool, it's that work ethic they need.
Too much pressure has been put on Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firminio. What the club needs is someone else to rest their laurels on when required and Chiesa along with Xherdan Shaqiri, Daniel Sturridge and Divock Origi can do that.
Chiesa's ability on the ball also makes him perfect as he is an unpredictable winger who combines speed and creativity to lethal effect. Moreover, he's versatile enough to play anywhere across the front-line and that makes any prospect of a move that much more exciting.

Liverpool need someone to add freshness next season and signing someone as good as Federico Chiesa will be good. The young forward will only grow from here on and it further makes the move a brilliant one for the Reds.

Upgrades coming for Pearland Regional Airport
July 24, 2015 / Cassidy Berenato
KPRC 2
By: Mark Boyle
PEARLAND, Texas - The Pearland Regional Airport is about to undergo some big changes, including millions of dollars in upgrades.
Stephen Alexander is managing the makeover, and it is set to start by the end of the year.
"As Hobby and Ellington and Bush all continue to get busier and busier and busier, you're trying to fit a larger quantity of airplanes in and out of finite airspace, runways and taxis," Alexander said.
Alexander said the Pearland Airport is a private airport with 300 takeoffs and landings each day. There are 150 hangars now that are all spoken for.
The project will level much of what is already in place and usher in dozens of new state of the art hangars and more space for small jet aircraft.
"Later phases of construction include a new terminal building for the airport for visitors, rental cars, vehicle parking," Alexander said.
KPRC 2 was told the project will infuse more money into the local economy and create another option for private air travelers trying to reach and point in the Houston area.
"Airspace is finite, and airspace can be thought of as our highway system," Alexander said. "Just as Houston has continued to work through its growth with road construction over the years, we have to think the same way with aviation as well."

Brewers designate Boone Logan for assignment
The Brewers cut ties with the bust of a free agent LOOGY signing
By Jaymes L@JaymesL Jun 19, 2018, 3:02pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: Brewers designate Boone Logan for assignment
Benny Sieu-USA TODAY Sports
You could tell Boone Logan was on thin ice based on Craig Counsell's comments after his past couple outings.
Logan was signed as a free agent to get left-handed batters out. He couldn't do that — albeit in a small sample size — and the Brewers decided they couldn't wait around for him to figure it out.
With a roster move needed to get Freddy Peralta on the 25-man to make tonight's start in Pittsburgh, the team decided to cut bait on the failed free agent experiment.
RHP Freddy Peralta has been recalled from Triple-A @skysox and will start tonight in Pittsburgh. LHP Boone Logan has been designated for assignment. pic.twitter.com/4ua3cTvxZA
— Milwaukee Brewers (@Brewers) June 19, 2018
Logan only amassed 10.2 innings as a Brewer, covering 16 different outings. But after missing much of the first part of the season after getting hurt in spring training, Logan never quite could shake off the rust. Even if his strikeout rates were as good as advertised, he walked 10 batters and gave up 15 hits — including 3 home runs.
Left-handers hit .409/.536/.818 against him, going 9-for-22 with 5 walks, 3 doubles, and 2 home runs. While it's tough to judge any pitcher on a 20-AB sample, the fact that Logan was supposed to be a luxury and the team already has Josh Hader and Dan Jennings to get tough outs against lefties worked against him.
Counsell seemed to try to get Logan extra work over the weekend to get him going, and it didn't quite work out. While he was only charged 2 earned runs in 2 outings against the Phillies, he still walked 3 and allowed 4 hits (including a home run) in 1.1 innings. Afterwards, Counsell was about as blunt as Craig Counsell is capable of being:
CC on Boone Logan's trouble so far against left-handed hitters: "He's got [10 2/3] innings, so he don't have a big sample, but these are the outs we need him to get, there's no question. This is his job, and it has to be his role to get these outs."
— Adam McCalvy (@AdamMcCalvy) June 17, 2018
Signing relief pitchers is always a risky ordeal, but even if you want to be critical of how some of them have worked out for David Stearns, at least he's known when to bail out instead of trying to justify the signing over an entire season. Stearns faced a similar situation last year with Neftali Feliz and didn't hesitate to let him go, either.

Can You Learn To Confidently Play In Front Of Others?
"You play guitar… play something for me"
If the confidence isn't there…
Those words are enough to stop anyone in their tracks.
And rightly so… playing in front of others can be scary…
I'm not necessarily talking about being in a band... or playing at open mics…
But having the confidence to play in everyday situations.
Playing for a partner…
Playing music with some friends who might play...
Many people I talk to would like to do it…
But the nerves get in the way…
And I get it…
I used to be terrified of playing in front of other people.
I would cease up… My heart started to race…
My palms becoming sweaty...
And I would lose control of my hands as they started to shake.
Those same chords that were effortless before…
Now felt like I was a beginner starting all over again.
And then all the "what if" thoughts started going through my head…
"What if I f**k up?"
"What if they don't like it?"'
Here's the worst part…
Even just the thought of playing in front of someone was enough to make these feelings bubbling up.
The question becomes…
And the answer is yes…
But the journey isn't comfortable…
Learning to play in front of others is like trying to overcome a fear…
It's possible to jump in at the deep end… but doesn't feel good.
Instead… it's all about taking baby steps…
Slowly building up to whatever level you want to get to.
The very first step doesn't require anyone to watch you… except yourself.
To start to grow confidence… a camera will become your best friend.
If you want to give it a try… take anything you're working on…
And record yourself playing it on camera.
This is the first baby step.
It'll feel a little strange the first time you try it…
But it does get easy over time.
I hope this little tip has been useful…
Especially to those of you who would like to get more confident playing in front of others.
If nothing else… it's also a nice little way to keep track of your playing… and how you're progressing.

Interacting with residents studying for the ABIM Internal Medicine board exam, I have found that one of the topics folks often find frustrating to master is working up a thyroid nodule. Dealing with a thyroid nodule can be intimidating initially but following a systematic algorithm makes it very simple. Thyroid nodules can be detected either on palpation during the physical examination or incidentally when imaging is performed. Some of the most common imaging studies that can detect a thyroid nodule are: carotid ultrasonography, CT scan of the neck, or PET scan.
The initial workup of a thyroid nodule, whether discovered via physical exam or incidentally, is to check a TSH level. If a TSH level is normal or elevated, the next step is to check a thyroid ultrasound.
A thyroid ultrasound yields important information such as accurate detection and sizing of all nodules of the thyroid gland. It will also help determine if a thyroid nodule is expected to be benign or malignant. If the thyroid nodule has a risk of being malignant, then ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration needs to be performed.
These ultrasound characteristics warrant a fine needle aspiration to determine if a patient does indeed have underlying thyroid cancer.
If the fine needle aspiration (FNA) is benign, then serial follow up is necessary.
If the FNA yields indeterminate results, then a repeat ultrasound guided FNA is warranted.
If FNA shows follicular neoplasm or suspicion for malignancy, surgical intervention is required.
In the context of a suppressed TSH, a thyroid scan and radioactive iodine uptake (RAIU) scan are the next appropriate diagnostic tests to perform.
These tests determine what portion of the thyroid gland is taking up radioactive tracer. Many times, a toxic nodule or multi-nodular goiter may be present. Uptake of radioactive tracer identifies the nodule as "hot" or hyper-functioning or "cold" and hypo-functioning.
Hot nodules rarely harbor a malignancy potential as these nodules have less than one percent of being malignant.
Cold nodules, on the other hand, are non-functioning as they do not take up the radioactive tracer and harbor a greater chance of malignancy. Therefore, these nodules require fine needle aspiration to determine if they are malignant or not.
This is a general approach to working up thyroid nodules, as relevant for your preparation for the ABIM Internal Medicine board exam.


If you want room to stretch out and breathe without neighbors on top of you, all city utilities and services and a community where pride of ownership is consistent throughout, Pinon Oaks is just that community!
The design of the subdivision allows many Pinon Oak homes breath-taking views adorning all sides, Granite Mountain to the west, Granite Dells, with it's red rocks and rock climbing to the east, San Francisco Peaks, to the north in Flagstaff - a short drive away to enjoy skiing, and downtown Prescott, to the south! The neighborhood is known for it's large lots ranging from .4 to some over 1 acre giving lots of room and privacy. Single level homes ranging from 1,800sf to 2,600sf, three-car garages, tile roofs and manicured, landscaped lots are pretty much the norm throughout the community. Residents may have RVs in Pinon Oaks, too!
There is NO Homeowners Association, and access to nearby amenities including Antelope Hills golf course, Embry Riddle Aeronautical University ( EARU), and three community parks nearby including Pioneer Park, and busy dog park along Willow Creek Road. Shopping, medical facilities and other services are all conveniently located to Pinon Oaks.


"Bosnia's top international representative has imposed an interim resolution on squabbling Mostar political factions, establishing the basis for the temporary financing of public services and sanctioning city councillors." So begins an article I saw tonight on BalkanInsight.com.
I think this is a good news story. I start like that because we're talking about the dangerous and divided world of politics and I'm not out to play political point scoring but any move that means that municipal workers will receive a pay check again after four months is good in my book. I don't suppose the squabbling politicians have been struggling to keep food on the table our save their electricity from being cut off. Sadly many whose interests they are supposed to be working to protect are not so fortunate.
But if the article is to be believed it seems the High Representative has taken the view that it is unfair that those who have been working haven't been paid while those who haven't been working have. City Councillors will now not be paid until they appoint a new administration. I doubt this will drive them into the soup kitchens but you have to hope that it does something to wake them up to the cruel cost their inaction has inflicted on others.

Texas Death Row and the Cummins Prison Farm in Arkansas
ACCESS PURCHASE
Students and scholars can access articles for free via Project Muse.
by Bruce Jackson
Southern Cultures, Vol. 13, No. 2: Photography
"I was living in Boston and Buffalo in those years, and no prison director in either of those states ever let me beyond the sally port without a guard watching me every moment and listening to every word I said or that anyone said to me. Neither of those states let me bring a camera inside."
I began taking prison photographs as aides-mémoire—as visual notes I could draw on to help me remember what I'd seen when I was home from the fieldwork and at my desk, writing about black convict work songs and prison social structure. Then I understood that some things could be said better in images, so I started taking the photography more seriously.
I visited Cummins, the Arkansas penitentiary, eight times between 1971 and 1975 and took about five thousand pictures there. At that time Cummins was in Federal receivership because the place had been so brutal up to the late 1960s. The first time I visited it, the only armed men were convict guards, mostly murderers doing life sentences. Things improved considerably over those four years, but that meant simply that Cummins was now a prison farm like those in most other southern states: prisoners did forced labor in the fields, supervised by armed guards on horses, and they lived in large tanks or dormitories. Medical care improved, as did the food, but the heart of the prison was always the field operation, particularly the cotton. The last time I visited Cummins they had some cotton picking machines, and the men got to spend part of their time in school.

Six months after the Paris climate talks, government officials from around the world will gather in San Francisco this week to try to build more momentum for the development of cleaner energy technologies.The 7th Clean Energy Ministerial will include representatives of the U.S. and 22 other countries and the European Commission, all focused on policies, technologies and networks that would make energy less polluting, and more affordable and efficient.
Six months after the Paris climate talks, government officials from around the world will gather in San Francisco this week to try to build more momentum for the development of cleaner energy technologies.
The 7th Clean Energy Ministerial will include representatives of the U.S. and 22 other countries and the European Commission, all focused on policies, technologies and networks that would make energy less polluting, and more affordable and efficient.
What Moniz was referring to, of course, was the agreement by the U.S. and nearly 200 other nations to take actions to limit global warming.
While opposed by Republican majorities in the House and the Senate, and already a controversial topic in this year's presidential election, the Paris agreement is embraced by President Obama and the two Democratic candidates for the White House, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, as a sign of U.S. leadership on the environment.
Moniz and his peers plan to use the June 1-2 meeting to build on policy actions that participating nations have taken since the event was first organized by the U.S. in 2009.
Among the latest such initiatives is a commitment by the U.S. and 19 other governments to double their spending on clean-energy research and development by 2020, which officials announced during the UN-led climate talks in Paris in December.
Called "Mission Innovation," the governments' declaration on R&D was accompanied by a pledge by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and 27 other wealthy investors from 10 countries to promote early-stage financing, such as seed, angel and Series A investments, for game-changing energy technologies.
In an interview, Moniz said Gates and other members of the "Breakthrough Energy Coalition" will attend the ministerial meeting to discuss their activities since December.
"They will be talking about how they are organizing in terms of investment vehicles, and also how the intersection of government programs and investors will work," Moniz said.
A model for such collaboration already exists at the Moniz-led Department of Energy, where the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy provides funding and technical support for technologies with the potential to provide breakthroughs in energy production and consumption, but still not far enough along to attract much private investment.
Oddly enough, ARPA-E has enjoyed bipartisan support since its inception in 2009, unlike many other energy and environment issues in Washington.
To date, ARPA-E has provided $1.3 billion to more than 475 projects, including 45 projects that went on to receive a total of $1.2 billion in follow-on private investment.
But the program's funding is relatively small, with just $291 million this year, and many worthy applications are turned down. For example, ARPA-E accepted less than 2% of the proposals in one solicitation last year.
"We've got a lot more capacity to innovate than we're taking advantage of," the secretary said.
The heightened attention to green energy also comes as investors see adoption of solar and wind technologies, some aspects of which were first developed years ago, grow at exponential rates now, especially as costs come down.
Those developments seem to be making an impression among investors in Silicon Valley, some of whom have preferred information technology to energy technology because of quicker returns from the former.
"They understand that it may be 20 years before you get your investment paid off," Moniz said of the Gates-led group, which also includes Jeff Bezos of Amazon, Richard Branson of Virgin Group, Meg Whitman of Hewlett Packard Enterprises and Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook.

Q: Handling IPFS uploading from React FrontEnd with encryption ? I'm novice to both StackOverFlow and IPFS too. I'm working on a Project to upload files on IPFS from the Front-End using React JS (web), For that I'm using "ipfs-api" Module provided by IPFS Community.
Now what I want, I want to upload file with the "AES" encryption,
Means :-
For Uploading to the IPFS :-
1. I've got the file from user
2. converted to buffer and encrypted it using crypto(module)
3. Converted Encrypted String to buffer to upload IPFS
4. Got the Hash for the Encrypted file
Now for getting original file:-
1. Get the file from the IPFS (means got the encrypted data of the file ) using ipfs.cat method

*Decrypted the file (using same crypto "aes-128-cbc")

(gives me raw or IDK data of the file in the format, I'm getting if log that data in the
�PNG

���
IHDR�� �� X ���Y�g���� sBIT ��O���� tEXtSoftware�gnome-screenshot� �>�� �IDATx���{\�u���� �5 ���"( �

a long data

*So please let me know what to do with that data, I think I need to save it but how to save this in a file like format of PNG or something what to do with it.

Code I'm using for uploading :-
 onSubmit = async event => {
    event.preventDefault();

    var mykey = crypto.createCipher("aes-128-cbc", "mypassword");
    var mystr = mykey.update(this.state.buffer, "utf8", "hex");
    mystr += mykey.final("hex");

    console.log(mystr);

    const buffer1 = await Buffer.from(mystr);

    await ipfs.add(buffer1, (err, ipfsHash) => {
      console.log(err, ipfsHash);

      this.setState({ ipfsHash: ipfsHash[0].hash });
    }); //await ipfs.add
  }; //onSubmit

Code for Getting the Data :-
  onClick = async () => {
    try {
      console.log("-----------------------------------------");

      ipfs.cat(this.state.ipfsHash, (err, result) => {
        console.log(err, result);
        let r = result.toString();
        let r1 = Buffer.from(r);
        let mykey1 = crypto.createDecipher("aes-128-cbc", "mypassword");
        let m = mykey1.update(r, "hex", "utf8");
        m += mykey1.final("utf8");
        console.log(typeof m);
        this.setState({ fileDat: m });
        console.log(this.state.ipfsHash);
      });

      console.log("-----------------------------------------");
    } catch (error) {
      //try
      console.log(error);
    } //catch
  }; //onClick

So please help me to get this done, in summery I need to save a encrypted file to the IPFS and save its Hash to DB and Retrieve the file using the same hash (IPFS) after decryption.

3D printing is a rising threat for world trade. According to a new ING report, world trade will be 23% lower in 2060 if the growth of investments in 3D printers continues at the current pace. If investments accelerate domestically printed goods could already wipe out 40% of world imports in 2040.


Vera Obolenskaya was a Russian immigrant, one of the leaders of the French Resistance during WWII. This film, based on the book by Ludmila Flam "Vicky: the Countess Obolensky" is about her, but not simply about her - it is also about modern youth in Paris and Moscow. Would they be capable of courage in times of need like she was - giving her life for her principles at the age of 33? Have the concepts of honor and human dignity all but disappeared for us, people of the 21st century? 18 seconds was the amount of time that passed from the moment Vicky put her head down on the guillotine at the German prison to the moment she was beheaded. Her entire life flashed before her eyes - seemingly an ordinary life, but in reality a journey of faith of Vera Obolenskaya.


The first words I usually hear when someone talks to me about unwanted bees are, "I've got a swarm of bees and I really don't want to kill them." I just love to hear that, especially the second part! This can turn out to be real swarm that came from an established colony, usually nearby, that has landed somewhere waiting for their scouts to return with information on a new spot for them to start a new colony, or it can be an established colony living in tree or building or somewhere the people don't want them.
I've divided these photos up into two main categories of Swarm Capture and Colony Removal to hopefully help folks understand the difference. I needed to divide the second category up into the two sub-categories, Cut Outs and Trap Outs, because depending on where the established colony is located, it can be handled a couple of different ways.
If the bees need to be cut out I make sure folks understand I'm a beekeeper not a carpenter. Every possible effort is taken to minimize damage to the structure. I do whatever I can, in cooperation with the owner, to perform the removal is such a way as to make it easier to do the repairs after the bees are removed, but it is the responsibility of the owner to have the spot repaired. References are gladly furnished if anyone has any concerns. If honeybees have become a problem, send me an email or call or text me at 217-638-6371 or 6372. I'd be glad to take a look and talk to you about them. Please call before you spray!
Swarms are the honeybees way of insuring survival. Early in the summer, usually starting in May, the hive has had a chance to build numbers and stores to the point the hive can divide. Leading up to this time the hive has been busy raising new queens to take over. Just before the first of the new queens hatch the existing queen and up to half of the colony will swarm out to come to rest usually not terribly far from the original location. Before they leave, the workers fill themselves with honey that will help them and the queen survive until a new cavity can be found to begin a new hive. Scouts are sent out from the swarm to locate a suitable spot, much like scouts are sent out to locate nectar and pollen sources. A swarm will usually not stay in a location more than a few days and can leave within hours. Swarms often will leave their original hive just before an approaching weather system. Generally a swarm is very docile. They have no hive to protect, nothing to defend, they're just waiting for directions to a new place to start over. However, with bees, there are exceptions.
There are basically two methods used to remove established colonies-Cut Outs and Trap Outs.
Cut outs are much quicker than trap outs when it comes to removing an established colony of honeybees, but not necessarily the easiest. On the plus side the bees are removed with their comb, containing their food stores, eggs, and brood. It is a matter of rearranging and relocating the hive. But, there is a downside to cut outs. It's hard work (often not in the most accessible location to say the least), it can be really (and I mean really) messy and sticky (especially later in the season when the colony has had an opportunity to put up a lot of honey), you sometimes end up with a sizable amount of really angry bees (even though you are at work trying to save them, they just don't understand), and some of the bees in the hive will be killed. On rare occasions the queen doesn't survive. Certainly not the best thing for the colony, but it beats the entire colony being killed and destroyed.
Some go much smoother than others, mostly depending on the location. There are too many variables to be able to predict exactly how they'll react. In my experience bees in walls get much more upset by the time you use a saws-all, crowbar, and hammer to get into them than bees in a tree being cut out with a chainsaw. I've taken some out of walls, from between floors, or in ceilings where a veil and a heavy long sleeve shirt are barely enough, and I have to tape my hands with just my fingers exposed (I don't like to wear gloves, I have my reasons) to help limit the amount of stings to my hands. The worst I've been stung up to this point has been removing a colony from a ceiling. After cutting through dry wall, plaster, and lathes, removing comb and vacuuming bees for a several hours I was stung at least 70 times. Those little gals were upset! But, I've cut a tree down, cut the stump up into chunks with a chainsaw, and removed the colony while wearing a T-shirt. The only time getting stung then was when I would happen to pinch one with my fingers when handling the comb.
Either way, cut outs are the best initiation into being around and handling honeybees.
First part of a 2 part video of a new colony that I was called to cut out of a fallen tree. Sorry, but too much going on not to have to make it in 2 parts. Most of the video is explained in the narration.
Second part of a video showing removal of a colony from a fallen tree. Had lots of minutes of just bees crawling, so edited out quite a bit for posting. At the end the bees standing with their butts in the air are exposing the nasanov gland, a scent gland, and fanning this pheromone out to the other bees still flying around just to let them know where home is now. Went back that evening about dark, closed the hive up with all the bees inside, and took them home.
Spur of the moment shot of a cutout I was doing in an old corn crib. Hadn't planned on taking any video because of rain, but had to stop to get repairs for generator. While they were gone I got out the camera and shot a little bit between showers.
If a colony needs to be removed and has established itself in a spot where the hive itself cannot be accessed, such as a tree that can't be cut down or a building that can't be torn into, they need to be trapped out. It's really the last option of removal. There are a few drawbacks to this method, though. It can take up to 2 months, a box of bees must brought in (which at first doesn't make sense if the plan is to be getting rid of bees), and you lose the queen of the colony in the process. All but one of the entrances must be closed and the remaining entrance needs to be covered with a wire cone, sort of like a fish trap. The bees crawl out, but can't find their way back in. Due to the life cycle of the bees, 3 weeks from the time the eggs are laid until they hatch, then the first 3 weeks of the bees life is spent inside the hive, it will take a minimum of 6 weeks from the time the eggs are laid to the time the bees leave the hive. The queen can take a week or more to stop laying eggs after the entrance is reduced depending on the amount of stores in the hive. It's best to figure 1 1/2 - 2 months. If you missed closing an entrance or they find or make a new one at any time during the trap out, then everything starts over at day one. It's best to check the hive regularly, at least at first. The colony queen will sometimes leave with a small bunch of the remaining bees or she will die in the hive. The box with empty frames or comb and a couple of frames of bees, brood, and eggs will become the colony's new home. Eggs are needed for them to raise a new queen. If a queen is brought in with the box, the bees going into the box from the colony will likely kill her as a strange queen.
