I was a victim of police brutality…I was driven to St. Joseph's emergency ward By the two officers who beat me up…When I arrived, I was seen by Dr. Arvo Kuld in the emergency room…
Dr. Kuld did not report the police brutality to any outside body in any way shape or form…
In fact, Dr. Kuld quoted the officer who beat me up directly in a form that he sent to the Ministry of Transportation…Dr. Kuld also erroneously issued a Form 1 that implied I had something wrong, such as a mood disorder…This form holds you in a hospital, and allows them to then issue subsequent forms to keep you there as long as they can…
I found out via a Globe and Mail article, that St. Joseph's emergency ward and beyond were subject to some sort of " form corruption"…It was explained by the math, that doctors at St. Joseph's Health Care Centre, earned 30,000 a year for driver's licence suspension form writing per year…
Each Form 1 issued paid emergency room physicians a whopping $105.00, EACH!
Once held in hospital, further forms could be issued to keep you there as long as possible, one form justifies the next one…There were patients inside begging to be let go…
Once admitted to this psychiatric ward, albeit erroneously, I was given two drugs that opposed each other directly…Olanzapine Zyorexa, and Thyroxine…What is interesting is the olanzapine was prescribed first…Then several days later my blood was tested, and low and behold my Thyroid markers were high…Of course they would be FROM the olanzapine zyprexa…But nevertheless, I was prescribed Thyroxine, which is an exact antagonist to the first…
If there was nothing wrong with my brain when I entered, except for a severe punch in the right eye which cause a contrecoup concussion, there was now…
Combining an upper and a downer, a thyroid antipsychotic, with a thyroid stimulater, will make anyone slightly crazy…
I see now this was on purpose…Too specific to be an accident…
Then three weeks later, still stuck in this ward with others who were also stuck, I did indeed start feeling weird…
To further compound things, a psychiatrist decided to evaluate my mood at that time, and decided that there was something wrong with my mood…Big surprise…
When I finally got a chance to see my report from this doctor, I saw all sorts of lies and half truths about myself…
Despite having given this shrink my entire collection of Grove Health Science books (10 at the time), I saw that she wrote on my report that I did not work…In fact, I was described in the worst possible light- I gather that is how they justify keeping patients coming back for outpatient services, and forcing new drugs on them, to keep them incapacitated…
Ironically when I switched to the head of psychiatry at Women's College Hospital, I found a somewhat similar pattern…She said that all she did was diagnose and prescribe drugs…Her appointments were 20 minutes long only, as she could not bother to have talk sessions at all…She was very interested in me taking a drug called Abilify and to have that injected…She told me the Ministry of Transportation was stipulating this, in order for me to get my driver's licence back, that Dr. Arvo Kuld has had suspended, so he could earn back the form money…
I have since abandoned all shrinks etcetera, after reading the Globe and Mail article about how I got trapped in this vicious money grubbing cycle…
I had actually thought there might be something wrong with me…
But I found out that thousands had had their driver's licenses suspended in Ontario, as well as being held on useless untrue Form 1 and further forms, and had been prescribed unnneeded psychiatric medications…
It appears that doctors in Ontario have become corrupt, Possibly due to OHIP and socialized medicine that does not pay them enough…
In fact, when OHIP arrived, most doctors took home less than one third salary that they had prior to the socialization of medicine…
So yes medicine is free now, and yes it is terrible now, and even corrupt…
This all began with this emergency room physician, who in a five minute period, got my driver's license suspended, and committed me into a ward on a psychiatric reason, which is very stigmatic to my reputation, but also almost did damage to my biochemistry with false drugs being prescribed to keep me in their facility as long as possible…
This is not medicine, this is corruption…
This is Iatrogenic effect…
Worse is that the police officer who struck me was not only not reported to any higher body, as he should have, but in appears that Dr. Arvo Kuld was in cahoots with these violent officers…
Why else would he quote the officer who beat me up in the driver's licence suspension form that I finally got to look at when I attempted to sue the Ministry of Transportation, who drags their heels on suspensions and makes it almost impossible to get your licence back…
" Acting very bizarrely and driving erratically " is what Dr. Arvo Kuld wrote on the form to the Ministry of Transportation…Since Dr. Kuld only saw me for five minutes, these could only be the words of the police officer who punched me in the right eye…
Yet, the doctor at St. Joseph's informed me it takes a year to make a clinical diagnosis to write a medical appeal form to get my license back…Interesting, five minutes to remove my licence and reputation with this Form 1 form…But a year for a diagnostic to say that I am healthy?
When I checked, Dr. Arvo Kuld only has the right to practice family medicine…Yet apparently he made two decisions and filled out two forms, that a specialist says takes a year to evaluate…
Fascinating…They can keep you for years, on drugs, and wasting time going to appointments, just to tell you if you are healthy or not, to write the form that gets you out of reputation jail…
But they can throw you into this position with just family physician certification, and a five minute look see…
This is corruption through and through, and the media is on to this…
As are the readers, and people like me who have been tread upon…
I am writing this here, because it takes such a huge amount of time for the College of Physicians to hear complaints…I figure I will post in the media as well, to make sure my voice gets heard…
The other doctors will get complaints as well…
But this one is for first contact, the first doctor to hurt me…
That this doctor colluded with a police officer who beat me up I have no doubt…
Why else would the officer have not gotten reported by the doctor Arvo Kuld?
The police bring people in, the doctor files suspension form, then psychiatric form 1, and the doctor gets a large bonus at the end of the year for filling out these forms…Then the other doctors collude by prescribing conflicting medications that will make you crazy quickly, then the outpatient shrinks conspire to keep you as a patient by extending time to over a year of weekly visits before they will say anything about your condition…
It is all designed to maximize revenue…
That it causes iatrogenic harm apparently is overlooked by all these so called healers…
It is disgusting…
Unhappy Patient:
Dr. Arvo Kuld is one of the emergency room physicians who writes too many forms in order to benefit from the extra income that writing forms produces… $30,000 extra per year for writing driver's licence suspension forms to the Ministry of Transportation… Each extra Form 1 psychiatric hold written, brings in $105.00 more… The Globe and Mail published statistics for all emergency rooms in the province… St. Joseph's health centre's emergency room had over three times the forms for driver's licence suspension forms written, and Form 1 psychiatric hold forms, as compared to the next highest hospital… To put that into perspective, 300 at the next highest hospital, compared to over 1200 written at St. Joseph's, Just driver's suspensions…Same inflated numbers for Form 1 psychiatric forms, at that $105 each form… Per year! Thousands of Torontonians have been trying to get their driver's licences back after these forms get filed with the Ministry of Transportation…Thousands more suffer the stigma of a Form 1 psychiatric hold that should never have been written… The OHIP system, combined with the lower income levels commensurate with free medical care, have corrupted physicians throughout… But it was Dr. Arvo Kuld where I got entangled in this trap of corruption, so it is this family physician working out of the emergency ward, who I am writing this scathing reviews for… To add insult to injury, I had been punched in the eye by the police officer who brought me to the hospital…This was never recorded or reported by Dr. Kuld, which Would have been a Form That he Should have gotten paid for…Apparently there is collusion between the police and the emergency room physicians, because nothing was ever reported…Or noted in any file…
Collusion: The collusion between the emergency room physicians at St. Joseph's and violent police officers like Officer Gary Gould(Google this name online to see the violent incidents this policeman has been recorded doing), who punched me in the right eye so hard it caused a concussion:
When a police officer abuses his or her powers, and strikes an innocent civilian causing enough harm to warrant bringing them to an emergency room, the emergency room physician, by Not reporting the crime committed by the police officer, And writing a Form 1 mood disorder form holding the victim in a ward- two things happen…1) the police officer walks away free 2) the victim is implicated as being guilty due to some unknown or undiagnosed psychiatric problem…
What this means is that the victim's hands are tied later, from suing the police officer, and or the emergency room physician…The Form 1 hold, by implying there was something wrong with the victim of police brutality prevents a clean brutality lawsuit from happening…Any victim figures this out, and both the doctor and the police officer know it well already…This is the collusion…Both the doctor and he police benefit from the writing of these Form 1 s…The driver's licence suspension form is further "proof" that the police officer was correct in brutalizing the victim…So the pattern continues, and both parties, police and doctors, benefit, by getting paid, and by not getting prosecuted for bad policing and bad medicine..

The attached PDF file was culled from a blog post…
dr.arvokuldst.joseph'shealthcentre
It is a report about Dr. Arvo Kuld, a family physician who works in the emergency room at St. Joseph's hospital which was the subject of a recent expose by the Globe and Mail, concerning abuse of driver licence suspension forms, and Form 1 psychiatric holds…
This physician is only one of many at St. Joseph's who have subscribed to the over billing of OHIP for forms, holding patients indefinitely on trumped up psychiatric forms, and overmedicating these healthy people with contraindicated medications to hold them for longer periods in the antiquated ward…
A single complaint would take too long for The College to process, and would require a procedure that in the end would favour the doctor, as the bias in these matters has been made evident though previous journalistic enquiry…
I am submitting this file as a courtesy to The College…
A more formal proceeding will occur outside of the College's auspices, to avoid going down a biased rabbit hole of insiders who for the most part are inactive with this type of institutional corruption…

Le plain carré dit aussi plan carré ou plan couvert, est une partie de la couverture d'un pan de comble qui n'est affectée d'aucun ouvrage.

En toute rigueur, le plain carré, comme son nom l'indique, couvre un pan de comble plan ligné de niveau et perpendiculairement. Le premier trait qu'on y bat est le trait de niveau, puis on lui construit une perpendiculaire nommée trait carré qui est une ligne de plus grande pente. Le terme « plan couvert » parait avoir une acception plus générale incluant les façons brouillées qui n'usent pas du trait carré et n'alignent pas les liaisons. Cependant l'usage récent néglige le plus souvent cette nuance, au profit de l'acception la plus large.

The gap between operating expenses for low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) properties that are acquired and rehabilitated and those that are newly constructed is the largest it's ever been, according to the 2018 Novogradac Multifamily Rental Housing Operating Expense Report-Survey and Analysis of LIHTC Properties.
The 2018 report details 2016 property expenses for nearly 1,700 LIHTC properties located throughout the country, with more than 190,000 affordable rental homes. Property characteristics discussed include: property type, building size, geographic area, and regional population density, among other factors.
In the seven years Novogradac has surveyed LIHTC properties' operating expenses, the gap between operating expenses in acq-rehab properties and new construction properties ranged from a low of 6.1 percent in 2012 to a high of 20.7 percent in 2016. While operating expenses for acq-rehab properties have always been higher than those for new construction, in 2013 that gap widened at a greater pace. In the three year's prior, acq-rehab expenses were approximately $4,500. In 2013, the year-over-year growth in expenses for these properties was 10 percent, bringing the cost difference per LIHTC apartment to just more than $5,000. In subsequent years, year-over-year growth was 8.3 percent in 2014, 0.6 percent in 2015 and 5.1 percent in 2016. The compounded annual growth rate for new construction LIHTC properties' operating expenses was 2.7 percent from 2010 to 2016, compared to a 4 percent growth rate for acq-rehab properties.
With the exception of one category – administration – average operating expenses were higher for acq-rehab LIHTC properties compared to newly constructed properties. Still, administration costs were just 1 percent lower in acq-rehab properties, hardly a significant difference. The category with the largest difference was operating expenses (which is comprised of extermination, trash and security, among other things). In this category, expenditures for acq-rehab expenses were 34.1 percent greater than those of new construction properties in 2016.
The differences in expenses of affordable acq-rehab properties and new construction are most likely due to the relative age and maintenance needs of the former. It is not surprising that for older properties, which acq-rehab projects tend to be, expenses are higher than in newly constructed properties. Knowing that these trends have been consistent and will likely hold into the future allows stakeholders to plan accordingly.

Vatican halts German diocesan plan to turn 800 parishes into 35
Bischof Stephan Ackermann of Trier. | Bistum Trier.
CNA Staff, Jun 10, 2020 / 13:25 pm
The Vatican has intervened to halt a controversial plan to reorganize a German diocese.
Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier met with the heads of the Congregation for Clergy and the Pontifical Council for Legislative Texts in Rome June 5 to discuss the diocesan plans to restructure several hundred parishes into 35 "XXL parishes."
On June 6, the diocese confirmed that the meeting took place between Ackermann and diocesan officials, and Cardinal Beniamino Stella and Archbishop Filippo Iannone, who lead the two curial departments. While the meeting was held in a "positive atmosphere," CNA Deutsch reported Tuesday that the diocesan plans may not be implemented in their current form.
According to a statement from the diocese, "the Congregation for Clergy, like the Pontifical Council for Legislative Texts, has concerns about the proposed reform of the parishes, as described in the law on the implementation of the results of the diocesan synod."
The diocese said that the concerns were "in particular as regards the role of the pastor in the leadership team of the parish, the service of other priests, the conception of the parish bodies, the size of the future parishes and the speed of implementation."
The restructuring program was formally adopted by the diocese in October last year, following a three-year diocesan synod aimed at addressing declining Mass attendance, a shortage of vocations, and other challenges facing the Church in Germany.
After Bishop Ackermann announced the Law for the Implementation of the Results of the Diocesan Synod (2013-2016), several local Catholics, including some priests, voiced concerns about its provisions, and in November last year the Congregation for Clergy and PCLT asked that the plan be delayed while it was studied in Rome.
The plans included the merger of all of the diocese's 887 parishes into 35 larger parishes, led by "pastoral teams" of laypeople and priest. Under the plans, a local lay group said, "the specific transmission of the preaching, especially the homily, to volunteers/lay people will lose the specific nature of the priestly office." Other concerns included the centralization of parishes, meaning Catholics in some parts of the diocese would have to travel up to 50 miles for Mass.
Following the meeting in Rome last week, the diocese released a statement saying that "during the conversation, the bishop made it clear what challenges the diocese of Trier is currently facing."
"In particular, these include: the reduction in the faithful's commitment to church life over [several] years, the decline in [local] church involvement and the tremors caused by the discovery of sexual abuse by clerics in the people of God."
"In addition," the diocese said, "demographic change, declining financial resources and the lack of priests are limiting pastoral opportunities in the diocese."
The diocese said that Bishop Ackermann would now work with staff and members of his diocesan curia to form a new plan that respects the "mandate" of the three-year diocesan synod and addresses Rome's concerns.

ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME THAT YOU MADE A DATE TO VISIT TALL OAKS?
Jess Monroe, the boy's distraught mother, is simultaneously leading the search and battling her own grief and self-destructive behaviour. Her neighbours watch on, their sympathy masking a string of dark secrets.
Dark, full of suspense and packed with twists, this brilliant new thriller is like nothing you've read before.


It can be really challenging to constantly follow a healthy diet. However, we have an easy and incredible way to include healthier food in your diet. This super-healthy snack is prepared with two ingredients: turmeric and manuka honey!
Turmeric is one of the most beneficial spices ever known to mankind! Curcumin, the active compound in this golden spice offers powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Turmeric is particularly beneficial for people suffering from arthritis pain.
When it comes to treating inflammation, many studies showed that turmeric can provide even better results. A 2009 study examined the anti-inflammatory effects of turmeric and the results showed that curcumin may have potential as a therapeutic agent in diseases such as arthritis, bowel disease, chronic anterior uveitis, pancreatitis, and certain types of cancer.
People finally became aware of the health benefits manuka honey and they start using this type of honey for therapeutic purposes. Actually, according to a 2011 study, manuka honey has antimicrobial and antibacterial properties and offers preventative and healing properties.
When the [enzymatic] hydrogen peroxide activity is blocked, manuka honey shows significant antibacterial properties. Its mechanism may be associated with the low pH level of honey and its high sugar content that is sufficient to stop the growth of microbes.
Treats burn, wounds, and ulcers.
In a bowl, mix the ingredients until you get a mixture with a consistency similar to peanut butter. With a tablespoon, roll the mixture into bite-sized pieces.
Then, you should put each raw manuka honey and turmeric bomb on the baking sheet. Freeze the bombs for 2 hours then take them out and transfer into a container. Enjoy!

Is this galaxy shaped like a spiral, or is it more of an elliptical? Astronomers have long debated the answer to this question, because it seems to have properties of both. Known as Centaurus A, or NGC 5128, this strange galaxy is located in the southern constellation of Centaurus, and it lies somewhere between 10 and 16 million light-years away from Earth; its exact distance is another question that is still up for debate. Astrophotographer Ron Brecher created this glittering view of the galaxy using data acquired from an observatory in New South Wales, Australia. (Image credit: Ron Brecher)

A lunar "halo" lights up the night sky above the 3.6-meter telescope at the La Silla Observatory in Chile. This phenomenon happens when the moon is at an altitude of about 22 degrees above the horizon, where light refracts through icy cirrus clouds. "Light rays that do this tend to 'bunch up' at the angle that represents the least amount of deviation from their original path. For the particular shape of ice crystal lurking within the cirrus clouds, this minimum deviation angle happens to be around 22 degrees," ESO officials said in a description. (Image credit: B.

The interstellar comet Borisov appears to come face-to-face with a distant spiral galaxy in this image from the Hubble Space Telescope. Hubble captured this image on Dec. 12, as the interstellar comet was racing through the inner solar system. At the time, the object was about 260 million miles (420 million kilometers) from Earth, while the unnamed background galaxy (officially designated 2MASX J10500165-0152029), is nearly half a billion light-years away. The galaxy appears smudged because Hubble was tracking the motion of the comet, which was zooming through space at a speed of about 109,000 mph (175,000 km/h). (Image credit: NASA/ESA/Hubble/D.

When the Hubble Space Telescope turned its gaze toward the remote galaxy known as the "Sunburst Arc," it saw not one but 12 separate images of the lone cosmic object. That's because there's a massive galaxy cluster in the foreground warping the light with its intense gravitational pull. This illusion is known as gravitational lensing, a phenomenon that Albert Einstein first described in his theory of general relativity. "This 'funhouse mirror' effect not only stretches the background galaxy image, but also creates multiple images of the same galaxy," NASA officials said in a statement. (Image credit: NASA/ESA/E. Rivera-Thorsen )
The spiral galaxy NGC 1706 may look a bit isolated drifting through the cosmos in this Hubble Space Telescope image, but this lonely galaxy has no shortage of neighbors.

In this peculiar-looking panoramic shot of the Paranal Observatory in Chile, the Milky Way appears to form two tornado-shaped columns of starlight that extend down from the heavens to Earth's surface. This illusion is the result of the photographer, the European Southern Observatory's Petr Horálek, projecting an entire 360-degree panorama onto a flat, rectangular image. In reality, the Milky Way arcs across the sky from one horizon to the other; the fact that it appears to spread out across the top of this image is merely a product of the illusions. Also visible here are the Magellanic Clouds, the Pleiades star cluster, the bright planet Jupiter and several nebulas. (Image credit: P. Horálek/ESO)

Swimming through a group of galaxies more than 200 million light-years away from Earth is the so-called "jellyfish" galaxy named ESO 137-001. This celestial jellyfish is a spiral galaxy much like the Milky Way, but it has long "tentacles" of hot gas streaming away from the galactic disk. Scientists aren't sure how the gas is being stripped away, but NASA's James Webb Space Telescope may be able to shed some light on the origin of those tentacles by studying them in unprecedented detail after its planned launch in 2021.

A new galactic image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows some interesting stuff lurking in cosmic dust, all from an unusual point of view. The venerable observatory turned its attention to NGC 3169, a spiral galaxy about 70 million light-years away in the constellation of Sextans, the Sextant. The "sharply angled perspective" that the space telescope imaged shows a sort of cosmic barrier that makes the viewer feel as though they're peering over the edge to see the galaxy's center, Hubble scientists said in a description of the image.

Located around 10,000 light years away in the constellation Centaurus, a planetary nebula glows in this image by Hubble Space Telescope. A planetary nebula is the final stages in the life of a red giant star, as it ejects layers of ionized gas and the core of the star collapses in on itself. Observing planetary nebulas gives us a glimpse into the future of our own sun. (Image credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA, R. Wade et al)
Earth's jet streams have nothing on Jupiter's, as seen in a stunning image from NASA's Juno mission. The image shows a region called Jet N6, in Jupiter's northern hemisphere. On the left is a large, circular storm; on the right, rippling clouds stretch through the jet stream band. The Juno probe captured this image on Feb. 12, during its 18th scheduled close flyby of the planet, a maneuver known as a perijove. The spacecraft was about 8,000 miles (13,000 kilometers) above the clouds at the time. (Image credit: Kevin M. Gill/NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/MSSS)

Dusk till dawn. Three days. Three letters. E – D – C.
This monumental festival is praised and applauded by every electronic dance music fanatic across the world. The massive line-up, the interactive environments and the aura of 'good vibes' makes this festival — created by mastermind Pasquale Rotella, owner of Insomniac events — stand out as one of the most unique and memorable musical experiences imaginable. The recent explosion of dance music created a high expectation for the event — it was unquestionably met this year.
This year a whopping 35 million dollars was budgeted to create the "EDC Experience." Illuminated art sculptures graced the landscape with pieces like the 50 foot electric daisy. Rides like traditional carnival swings, multiple Ferris wheels and even a small Crazy Coaster kept festival goers entertained all night.
The carnival theme followed through to every detail. There were over 10 food stands across the grounds that served everything from fried dough to sushi. Special effects and massive fireworks shows were strategically timed within the 12 hour festival, and fired-off over 20 headlining acts.
Seven uniquely styled stages: Kinetic Field, Cosmic Meadow, Circuit Grounds, Neon Garden, Bass Pod, Bass Con and the Discovery Project, dedicated to every genre of EDM dotted the raceway landscape. The main stage, Kinetic Field, was host to the headliners of the festival. This year, Tiesto, Avicii and Hardwell were few of the many who rocked the crowd under the wings of a giant 100 foot moving owl. Kinetic Field alone is estimated to have grossed an 80,000 person crowd over all three nights.
Armin van Buuren – Noted often as the king of trance, Armin is a global phenomena and certainly wowed the crowd the first night of the festival on the main stage. The Dutch producer brought beautiful melodic tracks from his hit new album, Intense with songs like "Alone" and "Forever is Ours." Armin even threw in some electro mixes including his opener of the hit remix with W&W, "D# Fat." Fireworks filled the sky and accompanied his hit "This is What it Feels Like," which got a 50,000 person crowd singing together in harmony.
Tommy Trash – His energy and hair rocked the crowd the first night as the Australian native brought the noise to Circuit Grounds. The electro house was bumping all night as Trash spun remix favorites of Deadmau5 and Steve Aoki like "Ladi Dadi" and "The Veldt." The producer also threw in his new hit remix of Destructo's "Higher" as the fast paced beats and bass blew through the roof.
Porter Robinson– He may be young, but the up and comer wowed the main stage on Friday night with his incredible mixes. Robinson tossed in crowd favorites like "Easy" and "Language" but also enhanced his performance with a variety of sounds including dupstep and trance. His transitions were smooth but it was the high energy beats that allowed the crowd to react positively to the hour long set.
Major Lazer – This electronic trio graced the crowd with their presence the second day of the festival bringing every sound from hard electro, dubstep and reggae. Member and notable producer, Diplo, threw in hit singles like "Telefon Don" and "Jah No Partial" to the mix. Flags flew and Diplo personally requested that the crowd "wave their shirts" and "get on somone's shoulders" – this was one party that got the crowd moving.
Interactive performers to pyrotechnic special effects — all aspects of EDC were specifically designed to make this festival stand out from the others. The sold out crowd embraced the music under the electric sky as another Electric Daisy Carnival rocked the worlds of music lovers, yet again.


Luxury Daily -There are many theories, explanations and predictions for how the way people shop is changing. But one undeniable reality is that customers no longer shop through single channels.
The rise of digital, the fragmentation of retail options and the dissolution of brand loyalty have all contributed to the rise of multichannel retail. Multichannel, or omnichannel as some call it, simply means that a brand or retailer is integrating the various channels of its business, such as bricks-and-mortar stores, social media and ecommerce, into one cohesive path.
This trend has been incredibly influential over the last few years, with brands across the luxury world radically reorganizing the way they do business to capture shoppers across touchpoints.
"Shopping today is all about digital, digital and digital," said Brian Bunk, principal at Boston Retail Partners retail consulting firm, Boston. "With the advent of mobile commerce, consumers expect to shop whenever and wherever they want.
"A major trend is a focus on a holistic and personalized customer experience across any and all touchpoints," Boston Retail Partners' Mr. Bunk said. "Too many omnichannel efforts have failed because their main focus was on a technology or solution versus focusing on the desired customer experience.
"For many retailers, there should be more of a focus on the personalized digital experiences within the store, and the capabilities to support anywhere, anytime, anyhow shopping that customers now desire and expect," he said. "Buy online, pick up in the store (BOPIS) is simply the table stakes for retailers, and the key is to execute it flawlessly.

Sometimes an addition on your home can make it feel like a completely new space. A family in Ridgewood, NJ bought their home because of their love for the neighborhood, schools, and the overall area to raise children. The house was perfect for everything except size, but they understood that could be fixed with renovations and additions down the road.
They family knew they wanted a larger kitchen and dining area, a larger family room, a master bath en-suite, and a finished basement for their children to use a playroom. The basement would also include a space for a live-in nanny. The project was expanded over several years, not only to help with affordability, but to keep the household functioning and sanity levels in check. A renovation like this one takes a lot of planning and preparation, but the final outcome is certainly worth every second!
The first photo that you see above shows an exterior view of the finished project that incorporates the original siding throughout. The additions were made on the back of the house, also known as a "Rear Yard Addition." The kitchen was expanded out into the yard along with the family room. The master en-suite was then built on top of the family room. The second image shows the project in motion, as Trade Mark worked on the addition's framing and structural elements. Lastly, the third image offers a sneak peek into what the family was able to do with their brand new kitchen fit for the entire family. Now, with a perfect location and enough space to grow, Ridgewood is sure to be home for a long time.
Are you looking to add onto your living space as well? Is your dream home just a renovation away? If so, contact Trade Mark Design & Build today for free, in-home consultation.

Andy Reid 'had a cheeseburger and went to sleep' to celebrate…
NFL Sends (and Releases) Memo to 32 Teams
Vincent Frank
Roger Goodell's office sent a memo to 32 teams on Friday showing exactly what the league has done in response to the domestic violence scandal that has overshadowed the 2014 season.
In a turn of events that's about as surprising as South Park's Redskins episode, this memo was released to the public mere hours after Goodell sent it out.
Here's the full transcript (h/t Pro Football Talk).
To: Chief Executives
From: Commissioner Goodell
Re: Actions in Support of Domestic Violence/Sexual Assault Efforts
In an attempt to keep you properly informed, we will provide a series of periodic updates regarding actions taken in support of our commitments to address incidents of domestic violence and sexual assault in the NFL and to set a positive example within our society.
First, earlier today we met for several hours with DeMaurice Smith and several NFLPA representatives to continue discussing issues of personal conduct, including training, education, family services, and the disciplinary process.
Second, we continued our meetings with a wide range of groups to better understand the issues relating to personal conduct and to inform a comprehensive examination of our policies in these areas. Earlier this week, we met with 11 former players, as well as individuals with law enforcement backgrounds, to discuss their views on standards of conduct, appropriate levels of assistance, and discipline. These meetings will continue.
Third, we met with senior representatives of the U.S. Army regarding the military's approach to addressing issues of misconduct, including the provision of support services to families and victims. This support services model coincidentally is summarized in the attached op-ed piece, which appeared in today's Wall Street Journal.
Fourth, beginning with last night's game, we have provided NFL television promotional time for a PSA produced by NO MORE, a national campaign addressing domestic violence and sexual assault. This PSA ran during last night's CBS Thursday Night Football telecast which reached more than 16 million viewers. The spot will run during all NFL game telecasts this weekend. The value of this promotional time is close to $3 million. We are evaluating how to use our broadcast promotional assets for the rest of the season in support of our efforts to address domestic violence and sexual assault on a broader basis.
Fifth, our partnerships with the National Domestic Violence Hotline and the National Sexual Violence Resource Center have had immediate positive results. The Hotline continues to experience increased call volume and our financial support has allowed it to hire an additional 10 new full-time advocates, and 10 more will be hired by the end of next week. This will allow the Hotline to answer another 600-800 calls per day. The National Sexual Violence Resource Center has reached out to all of its coalitions to inform them of the NFL's grant, which will support local hotlines in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and four U.S. territories.
Many clubs have responded to the materials that were distributed to all clubs regarding resources in your communities related to domestic violence, sexual assault, and driving under the influence. Anna Isaacson and Deana Garner are available to discuss any questions you may have on these topics or materials. We will continue consulting with leading outside experts, law enforcement and judicial professionals, religious and business leaders, academics and players, both current and retired. As we do so, we will continue to provide you with information and look forward to a thorough discussion of these issues at the upcoming league meeting.
The question here is whether this was actually sent out to the media for distribution before it went to the 32 NFL teams. It's nothing more than a repeat of Goodell's talking points during his press conference last week. It's also a representation of the NFL believing that the general public is ignorant enough to believe that this was a memo solely meant for teams around the league itself.
It reads as a press release from a league that's on the heels when it comes to its PR perception. There is no real new information provided. And there is absolutely nothing here that suggests the NFL is working behind-the-scenes on creating a different environment within the footbal world itself.
Word of advice, Mr Goodell. Maybe add something of importance to the "memo" you are sending out to 32 teams around the league, especially if that memo (much like this one) is meant to actually be sent to the top editor's at every major sports site in the world.

Since the early 1990s, the testimonies of these women shocked the world, and were eventually taken up as a serious human rights issue by the United Nations, a host of governments, and numerous independent NGOs. Taking a different, we aimed to listen to and gauge the true feelings of some of the few remaining survivors, believing that the sea of mass media and politics is largely drowning their voices out. We sought to hear their true wishes.
As part of our Fading Away documentary series, we hoped to give a voice to these women and search for a form of healing. We traveled thousands of miles to visit the historical locations and met with the some of few remaining survivors. Along the way, we became witnesses to the scars left on their bodies and souls. Our journey brought us to Japan, Korea, China and Taipei to meet with several experts, museums and NGOs. Our team gained great insight on this controversial issue that is still widely unknown to the rest of the world.
Now into their 80s and 90s, these women are becoming weaker day by day and we believe that such traces of painful memories and tragic stories may never be healed. But by remembering them and embracing them, we will provide a step towards their ultimate closure.
Our film's purpose is to share the emotions of the past and to connect our generations in a more personal and humanistic way. Through understanding the faults of the past, we allow them to never be erased, and prevent them from happening again.

Bennet Statement on the President's FY 2015 Budget Request
Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet issued the following statement on the release of the President's FY 2015 budget request.
"The President's budget offers a number of promising ideas to help grow our economy and get Coloradans back to work. One of the most important aspects of the budget for Colorado is a smarter, more sensible approach to dealing with wildfires that will save us money in the future. It is also encouraging to see a focus on repairing and rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure through the creation of an infrastructure bank that will help us remain competitive in the 21st century economy.
"The President also renewed his commitment to conservation by requesting full funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF), which has been used to help preserve dozens of high-priority landscapes across Colorado. LWCF resources help safeguard our state's natural heritage and drive our outdoor recreation-based economy.
"But we still have more work to do to craft a long-term deficit reduction plan that is bipartisan and shows we're all in this together. That's what Coloradans expect and deserve. I look forward to reviewing the budget in greater detail, and I remain willing to work with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to put us on a more fiscally sustainable path."
The wildfire portion of the President's budget request is modeled after a bipartisan Senate bill, S. 1875, the Wildfire Disaster Funding Act of 2013, that Bennet cosponsored, that would allow the U.S. Forest Service and Department of Interior to fight some wildfires using emergency funds separate from their discretionary budgets.
Bennet has long championed the Land and Water Conservation Fund as an important vehicle for preserving Colorado's open spaces, which, beyond their aesthetic beauty, are a significant driver of Colorado's economy. He is currently leading efforts to preserve the Hermosa Creek Watershed in southwest Colorado and the Thompson Divide area on the western slope.
The President's request includes a proposal to create an infrastructure bank, an idea Bennet has supported through the introduction of S. 1957, the Partnership to Build America Act, in January of this year.

Q: How to orthogonalize a set of vectors in GNU Octave? Mathematica has a function Orthogonalization, which, when given a set of vectors, orthogonalizes them.
Is some similar built in routine available in GNU Octave?
Of course, I can set up for loops to orthogonalize a set of vectors using Gram-Schmidt method, but I was looking for a built in routine.

A: I guess you can try qr to orthogonalize a set of vectors.
Given a set of vectors
v1 = [3,4,2];
v2 = [2,5,2];
v3 = [1,2,6];

we bind all vectors by columns to form a matrix A, and then perform qr, e.g.,
A = [v1;v2;v3]';
[Q,R] = qr(A);

then we will see
Q =

  -0.557086   0.787070  -0.264906
  -0.742781  -0.614899  -0.264906
  -0.371391   0.049192   0.927173

R =

  -5.38516  -5.57086  -4.27099
   0.00000  -1.40197  -0.14758
   0.00000   0.00000   4.76832

where the columns in Q are the orthogonal vectors.
