Cons: It's Glucomannan is much too low. Weight loss claims are a tad optimistic.
Phentamine HCL 37.5 is a "Pharmaceutical Grade OTC Weight Loss Diet Pill" with a name that has obviously been chosen to attract the attention of dieters searching for a way to buy the prescription drug Phentermine. Customers are promised a weight loss of up to 25 pounds per month, but the people marketing the pills point out doctor-approved exercise and a reduced-calorie diet will be required.
The pills are a copy-cat in more ways than one. Not only do they have a name that mimics that of the prescription-only diet pill, they have the exact same formulation of ingredients as several other products including Ultimate Burn and Skinny Minnies Boost & Burn. It's a white label product, the name on the bottle may vary, but the pills remain the same.
Caffeine: A stimulant that is good for upping energy levels and is renowned for its ability to improve concentration and focus. Caffeine is also a proven fat burner.
Phenylethylamine HCI: An ingredient that may deliver a short term energy boost and improved mental focus.
Glucomannan: One of the best appetite suppressing ingredients in the world, but it is hindered here by a low inclusion rate. Medical experts have stated three 1000 mg doses are required each day. Phentamine could not possibly provide a fraction of this amount and only one pill is taken each day.
Fursultiamine: An ingredient derived from thiamine. It is believed to possess energy boosting abilities, but further study is needed.
L-Tyrosine: High doses of L-Tyrosine can be effective for improving mental focus, but the amount included here may not be enough.
Green Tea Extract: Researchers in Europe have proven green tea's ability to boost the metabolism, increase energy expenditure, and encourage fat burning.
Raspberry Ketones: A study conducted by researchers in Korea shows supplementation with raspberry ketones can increase lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation.
Yohimbe: A study involving a group of football players suggests supplementation with yohimbe may improve fat loss in "elite athletes".
L-Carnitine: A study conducted in Italy supports the claims made for L-Carnitine's ability to boost fat burning and also shows it has the ability to delay the onset of fatigue.
Synephrine HCL: A powerful stimulant that can speedup the metabolism and encourage the burning of fat.
Kola Nut: A fruit extract that is high in caffeine.
One capsule each morning is all that is required. Supplementation must be ceased after 8 weeks, but can be resumed a fortnight later.
The amount of bad reviews slightly outnumber the good.
It is also worth noting the people distributing the pills have done such a good job of making them sound like Phentermine, a number of people have left five star reviews for the prescription drug because they have used it in the past. These people have not purchased Phentamine and do not realize it is not what they think it is.
Phentamine is unsuitable for people under 18 years of age. It is also likely to be an unsafe option for women who are pregnant or nursing a child, but the people marketing the product fail to make this clear. Anyone suffering from a medical condition should consult a doctor before using the product. People who are using medication will need to show a similar degree of caution.
Phentamine is exclusive to Amazon, but it was unavailable at the time of this review.
A 90-day money back guarantee is provided.
The formulation of ingredients used in Phentamine HCL 37.5 should be capable of supporting weight loss when the pills are used in conjunction with diet and exercise, but the amount of stimulants the pills contain will make them an unsuitable option for people who do not tolerate stimulants well. Other products can offer similar or better results without the same risk of negative issues.
There are many diet pills that are advertised as an alternative to Phentermine – it is only PhenQ that has managed to not only pull it off but surpass it.
PhenQ is a true combination of pharmacy grade and natural weight loss ingredients – it is suitable for just about anyone and everyone who want to lose weight.

Overall and Serious Disabilities Frequently Present In Kids With Asd Are Related to a Host of Difficulties In Careers, Such As Reduced Parental Effectiveness, Increased Family Stress and an Rise In Mental and Physical Health Issues Compared With Parents With Kids With Other Developmental Disorders. In Addition to Considerable Financial Pressure and Time Pressures, High Divorce Rates and a Lower Family Well-Being Overall Reinforce the Burden on Families With an Asd Child. Such Effects of the Parent and Family Affect Diagnosed Children Reciprocally and Negatively and Can Also Decrease the Positive Effects of the Treatment. Neither Parent Nor Family Factors Are Thought to Influence the Immediate and Long Term Effects of Therapy. However, the Majority of Asd Treatments Are Assessed Exclusively In Terms of Children's Outcomes. Although Significant Changes to the Diagnosed Boy Are Not Expected to Relieve Established Parent and Family Distress, Particularly As Additional Family Disorder Will Add to the Time and Cost of the Intervention. a New Model Is Therefore Developed For Intervention Evaluation That Takes These Considerations into Account and Better Explains the Transactional Essence of These Relationships.

While summer still lasts, I thought to create the simple yet delicious salad to share with you all.
You might already have tried green salads with fruit or even this one before, but I never posted my version, so here you go… it's never too late to try something new. I made an amazing salad with Kale and Strawberries, or mixed greens with pineapple — It was an absolutely delicious combination of flavors, crunch… needless to say, both salads tasted really good!
Usually, I add strawberries or pineapple, from time to time mango, but this time, I thought since the peaches are in season this would be a fantastic combo. I got to tell you, it was very delicious, filling and delicious, indeed.
As far as the dressing goes, I really like my own dressing, and I tend to make almost the same dressing all the time. It's a blend of lemon or lime juice, salt, a dash of sugar, chili powder, allspice or sometimes freshly grounded cumin, which I used for this dressing.
Wash salad, and let it drain in the colander or use the salad spinner.
Combine ingredients for dressing and mix it well to combine. Drizzle over the salad, and toss it together to coat the salad with the dressing.
Slice a peach, and add to the salad. Drizzle with more dressing if desired and before serving sprinkle with some toasted sliced almonds, or any other nut that you have on hand for extra crunch.

Unconscious Rivals Silk Scarf
This meticulous depiction of two glamorous women lounging in an ancient Roman villa exemplifies the work of Lawrence Alma-Tadema, who became interested in daily life in ancient Greece and Rome after visiting Pompeii in 1893. From the marble-clad landing in the foreground the eye is drawn along a vaulted ceiling towards a view of the Mediterranean coast beyond. The intense colours, including the dark pink blossoms of the potted hibiscus, and the smooth build-up of the picture's surface, give a sense of heightened realism.
Traditionally the young women have been interpreted as rivals in love awaiting the attentions of the same man. A large marble statue to the left shows Cupid, the god of love, taking off the mask of a Silenus, companion to the god of wine Bacchus, which suggests that the women's love rivalry is about to be unmasked. The artist based the sculpture on artefacts found in Roman museums, photographs of which he owned.
Alma-Tadema was Dutch-born but settled permanently in London in 1870, becoming a highly successful Victorian artist.

This telescope facility will be used to do real science along with exposing the youth of Beaver County and anyone else, that wants to explore the mechanics and the science of astronomy. We are building the CHPO as a small scale, large telescope facility. The dome will rotate on a carousel, with a concrete pier and steel mount. We will use an automated computer data collection system. As funding permits, we will obtain instrumentation to be used in the search for near earth objects.
We got the telescope fired up Thanksgiving night. This was the first of many shake down runs. Focus on point sources leaves a bit to be desired, but fixable. Polar alignment is off by 2 degrees in elevation and needs some tweaking in azmuth. Tracking was good and I stayed on the moon for 15 minutes. I took a picture of the moon, camera lens to eyepice. Not the best way to do it, but I thought I would post it.
16 degrees doesn't help either.
Many thanks to the following businesses in Southern Utah for all the help in getting us underway. Each of them has given of their service and financial support freely and in many cases at the right moment, to keep us on track.
I can't say enough about Mountain West. They have been keeping me up and running for over 10 years.
See Roger or Aaron for your computer needs. The service there is the best anywhere.
I pled my case to several companies, "The Biggest", thinking they would jump on board to help us out.
communication needs from internet to tv. They have it all.
Rollins Machine for the excellent and speedy service . If you need anything fabricated "yesterday" they are the place to go.
These good folks can provide road base, water and road construction just to mention a few.

Q: How to migrate asp.net core authentication to new Google SignIn service? I've got a message from Google that I must migrate Google+ authentication to Google SignIn for my web-site. Google+ Sign-In is deprecated and will be off at March 2019. I could not find any information how to use new Google SignIn as authentication for asp.net core.
Microsoft provides this manual
https://learn.microsoft.com/ru-ru/aspnet/core/security/authentication/social/google-logins?view=aspnetcore-2.2
But this is deprecated.

A: For now I have following solution and it works.
  services.AddAuthentication().AddGoogle(googleOptions =>
    {
        googleOptions.ClientId = Configuration["Authentication:Google:ClientId"];
        googleOptions.ClientSecret = Configuration["Authentication:Google:ClientSecret"];
        googleOptions.UserInformationEndpoint = "https://openidconnect.googleapis.com/v1/userinfo";
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.Clear();
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey(ClaimTypes.Name, "email");
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey(ClaimTypes.GivenName, "given_Name");
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey(ClaimTypes.Surname, "family_Name");
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey("urn:google:profile", "profile");
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey(ClaimTypes.Email, "email");
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey("urn:google:image", "picture");
        googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier, "sub");
    });

You can write googleOptions.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey(ClaimTypes.Name, "name");
if you want use real name as name.

A: The ASP.NET Core team is aware of this issue. I think we just have to wait for a solution from their side, or a third-party package.
I hope they will be able to push an update to the framework, because Google is one of the default OAuth providers in .NET Core.

Where Was Spy Kids 4 Filmed?
Mirza Aaqib Beg
Directed and written by Robert Rodriguez, 'Spy Kids: All the Time in the World' is a spy action comedy movie that follows Marissa Cortez Wilson, a retired agent who used to work for the OSS. She now lives with her husband Wilbur and her two stepkids Rebecca and Cecil, who don't want her to be in their lives. When the maniacal Time Keeper emerges to take over the world, Marissa is called back by her former boss. Her life takes an unprecedented turn when Rebecca and Cecil find out her secret and are forced into action against the biggest existential threat that humanity has ever faced.
The breathtaking action sequences in the movie can arouse a sense of wonderment in the viewers, and some people may wish to learn more about its exact filming locations. If you are looking for similar information, then you have come to the right place. Here's everything you need to know.
Spy Kids: All the Time in the World Filming Locations
'Spy Kids: All the Time in the World' was filmed entirely in Texas. The state's Texas Moving Image Industry Incentive Program (TMIIIP) aims to increase employment opportunities by providing production incentives up to 22.5%. Production projects covered by the program include television, film, video game, extended reality (VR, AR, MR), animation, and commercials. However, the cash grants offered by the Texas Film Commission vary according to the total expenditure in the state.
Located in South Central America, the Lone Star State is a prominent shooting destination, and over the years, it has attracted the filming of numerous iconic movies. The production of 'Spy Kids: All the Time in the World' began on October 27, 2010, and it wrapped a few months later in February 2011. The shooting for the movie was done in several locations in the state, so let's learn more about them!
The principal shooting for spy action comedy movie was done in Austin. The inland city is famous for its eclectic live-music scene, food, and nightlife. The filming for the most action-packed scenes in the movie was done at Troublemaker Studios, located on 4900 Old Manor Road. The studio offers sound stages and green screen facilities that make it an ideal place for filming scenes that require visual effects. The scenes set in the OSS headquarter were filmed at The Long Center for the Performing Arts at 701 W Riverside Drive.
The historic Seaholm Power Plant at 800 W Cesar Chavez Street served as Tick Tock's temporary hideout. The scenes with Wilbur driving around the town were filmed at Congress Avenue and East 9th Street. Just a few kilometers away from it, shooting for the scenes at the Big Time Watch Repair Shop was done at San Jacinto Boulevard and East 3rd Street. The opening ambush was shot at Royal Blue Grocery, located at the 360 Tower, 360 Nueces Street. The chase involving Tick Tock began on East 9th Street and San Jacinto Boulevard, and it was also shot at East Hickory Street.

In recent weeks, intelligence officials have said clearly that Russia will likely meddle again in the 2018 midterm election season—which begins in Texas in less than three weeks. United States election systems, though, have not yet adequately improved defenses since the 2016 presidential election. On Wednesday, House Democrats outlined a last-ditch effort to step up security while there's still some time.
The Congressional Task Force on Election Security—which counts not a single Republican among its members—announced a findings report and new bill outlining a comprehensive plan for funding and enforcing minimum security standards for all US election systems. Three other election security bills have already been introduced, but neither the Senate nor the House has held an election security hearing so far. President Donald Trump's continuing skepticism that Russia interfered in the 2016 election process has also slowed momentum.
"Regardless of what President Trump believes, there's no disagreement among security experts that Russia carried out a cyber-enabled influence campaign to meddle in our democratic process," task force co-chair Bennie Thompson said on Wednesday. "Last week, Trump's Secretary of State candidly admitted that we are no better prepared to stop Russia than we were in 2016. Time is short. Our 2018 and 2020 elections are just around the corner."
The group's proposal outlines 10 recommendations for securing election infrastructure. Some are widely promoted measures, like ensuring that all US voting machines produce voter-verified paper backups, replacing aging machines that are potentially more vulnerable to attack, improving communication between federal and local officials, and offering support so all states can conduct "risk-limiting" statistical audits after elections.
Some are more subtle, though, and reflect the committee's collaboration with election experts and the security community. For example, the report specifically suggests unlocking funding for states to improve their IT infrastructure, and particularly encourages states to overhaul their voter registration database architecture. Task force co-chair Robert Brady noted that 41 states operate databases that are at least 10 years old. The report also specifically calls on election equipment vendors to prioritize voting infrastructure security through steps like active patching programs and vulnerability and attack disclosures.
There is $400 million left from the 2002 Help America Vote Act that Congress authorized but was never appropriated, and the legislators propose that this funding be immediately distributed to help states replace voting machines—a move that groups like The National Association of Secretaries of State strongly support. But the task force's proposed bill would also provide other types of funding to address election security initiatives that aren't voting machine-related. The bill would expand the Election Assistance Commission's oversight role, and authorize $1 billion for the Commission to distribute as election security grants. The legislation would also give every state one dollar for each person who voted in the most recent election to strengthen election infrastructure. And it would put $20 million toward a grant program for establishing risk-limiting audit initiatives.
Implementing all of the task force's recommendations in every state would certainly raise baseline election security. But given the limited time left before the midterm elections and Congress's overall lack of interest in taking action on election security, the odds of immediate large-scale improvement seem low. Representative Thompson even noted that though there are some bipartisan election security bills pending before Congress, no Republican representatives offered to help or participate in the task force.
"If we wanted to replace all of the equipment and infrastructure that needed to be replaced by the 2020 election, even now we're running out of time," Lawrence Norden, the deputy director of the Brennan Center's Democracy Program at New York University School of Law, told WIRED ahead of the task force's announcement. "Some of it isn't that hard, like doing a thorough risk assessment, putting in basic cybersecurity best practices, and doing post elections audits. If you could make that happen for this November it would be really important. But Congress needs to make sure those minimums are hit."
The task force makes it clear that the Constitution prohibits federal agencies from running elections, and it supports this decentralized approach. But after working for six months to evaluate the state of election security across the US, it concludes that federal resources should play a crucial role in supporting progress. "State and local governments must continue to run their own elections, but they cannot be expected to confront a sophisticated nation state like Russia on their own," task force member James Langevin said. "We must take the next step and actually act swiftly to implement these policies."
Though many states have made a significant effort to shore up their election defenses, time is almost up to implement baseline changes in every state. And that goes not just for 2018, but 2020 as well.

Q: Understanding negative scrollbar adjustment I'm seeing this code in a popular javascript library perfect-scrollbar but really not getting this as why it made the scrollleft to -1 and then again original. Even if I print element.scrollLeft right after element.scrollLeft = -1, I get it 0.
var element = document.getElementById('something');
var isNegativeScroll = (function () {
    var originalScrollLeft = element.scrollLeft;
    var result = null;
    element.scrollLeft = -1;
    result = element.scrollLeft < 0;
    element.scrollLeft = originalScrollLeft;
    return result;
  })();
  var negativeScrollAdjustment = isNegativeScroll ? element.scrollWidth - element.clientWidth : 0;

Can anybody make me understand what does the entire code do and why it has been done so?

A: This code just checks if negative values accepted...
As far as I know negative scroll values are posible at ios safari, when scrolling with touch events with momentum scrolling.

UPDATE:
This commit where this function appears:

Here I begin using a smaller brush and add glazes of VanDyke Brown, Burnt Sienna, Quin Gold, and darker mixtures of greens to build in some of the details.

Poggio Renatico (Al Pògio in dialetto ferrarese, Al Puz in dialetto poggese) è un comune italiano di  abitanti della provincia di Ferrara in Emilia-Romagna.

A Poggio Renatico si trova una base dell'Aeronautica Militare, sede del COA (Comando Operazioni Aerospaziali) e del Deployable Air Command and Control Centre della NATO.

Geografia fisica
Poggio Renatico è situato nella pianura ferrarese. Il paese gode di un tipico clima temperato continentale della pianura padana e delle medie latitudini.

Classificazione climatica: zona E
Classificazione sismica: zona 3

Origini del nome
Il toponimo Poggio deriva dal latino podium che si riferisce a collinette artificiali che emergono dalle acque circostanti. Un po' più controversa è l'origine di Renatico, che generalmente viene fatto risalire a reunatico derivato di reuna e che potrebbe essere considerato un equivalente di motta, termine col quale nel 1200 si indicava generalmente una collinetta circondata dall'acqua. Il nome del paese rappresenterebbe quindi la definizione della tipologia dell'insediamento originale, cioè un abitato costruito in posizione elevata rispetto alle acque paludose circostanti. La teoria che voleva far derivare il termine Renatico dal fiume Reno che scorre a qualche chilometro del paese non trova seguito tra i moderni studiosi, dal momento che il fiume è stato deviato nel corso attuale solamente durante il papato di Benedetto XIV.

Storia

Origini
Non è possibile definire con sicurezza l'origine di Poggio Renatico. I primi documenti che menzionano il paese come Podio, Podio Rognatico o Raunatico e infine Poggio Renatico sono di epoca medievale, ma alcuni ritrovamenti archeologici come le olle vinarie rinvenute nelle vicinanze fanno risalire le origini dell'insediamento all'epoca romana.

I Lambertini
Il feudo è appartenuto alla famiglia Lambertini probabilmente fin dal 972, anche se altre fonti fanno risalire l'investitura della famiglia al XIII secolo. In ogni caso la dinastia Lambertini dominò a lungo Poggio Renatico. Il più celebre discendente della famiglia fu Prospero Lorenzo Lambertini, che divenne Papa Benedetto XIV. L'estinzione del ramo maschile della famiglia avvenne dopo la morte di Papa Benedetto quando il Principe Cesare, ultimo della casata, ebbe una sola figlia femmina, Anna, andata poi sposa al Marchese Filippo Garagnani con il conseguente passaggio del paese sotto lo Stato Pontificio.

Dall'unità d'Italia
Dopo l'Unità d'Italia il paese entrò a far parte della Provincia di Ferrara ed iniziò il suo sviluppo economico a partire dall'inaugurazione della tratta ferroviaria Bologna-Ferrara del 1862.

Terremoto dell'Emilia del 2012
Poggio Renatico è stato colpito dai terremoti dell'Emilia del 2012. Le scosse sismiche hanno provocato il crollo della torre dell'orologio del Castello Lambertini e il danneggiamento del campanile e della cupola della Chiesa Abbaziale di San Michele Arcangelo, con conseguenze pesanti per il patrimonio artistico locale. Il 4 giugno 2012 il campanile della chiesa di San Michele, la cui instabilità stava mettendo a rischio la chiesa sottostante, è stato demolito con delle cariche esplosive.

Simboli

Lo stemma e il gonfalone sono stati concessi con il decreto del Presidente della Repubblica datato al 7 aprile 1994.

Monumenti e luoghi d'interesse

Architetture religiose
 Antica Abbazia di San Michele Arcangelo. La chiesa venne costruita anteriormente al 1200 ed è una delle più antiche della Diocesi di Bologna. L'edificio, in stile romanico e a navata unica, sorge probabilmente sul sito di un edificio di culto ancora più antico. Nel 1592 il rettore della pieve Marcello Lambertini finanziò parzialmente la ricostruzione ed ampliamento della chiesa, che divenne ancora più imponente ed impreziosita dopo che nel 1643 Papa Urbano VIII le conferì il titolo di abbazia secolare. Dopo le alluvioni del XVII secolo che lo danneggiarono parzialmente, l'edificio venne restaurato nel 1792 e, in una seconda fase, nel 1804. I lavori lasciarono invariato l'aspetto esterno in stile romanico, ma l'interno venne ricostruito in stile neoclassico, con un soffitto a cassettoni in gesso a copertura dell'originale in legno. Il 21 marzo 1901 la struttura, probabilmente a causa delle infiltrazioni, subì un crollo parziale che ne decretò la sua chiusura al culto. Dopo un lungo contenzioso tra chi desiderava il restauro della vecchia chiesa e chi prospettava invece la costruzione di un nuovo edificio di culto più vicino al nucleo attorno al quale si stava sviluppando il paese, nel 1904 il Comune di Poggio Renatico ne decretò la definitiva chiusura e nel 1907 fu consacrata una nuova chiesa parrocchiale costruita accanto al Castello Lambertini, sempre intitolata a San Michele. Seguì un periodo di progressivo abbandono della vecchia chiesa, fino ad essere utilizzata dall'esercito tedesco come magazzino durante la seconda guerra mondiale. Nel 2002 venne completamente restaurata ed adibita a sala polivalente fino al crollo del tetto per il terremoto del 2012 che ne ha determinato la chiusura al pubblico.
 Chiesa abbaziale di San Michele Arcangelo. La chiesa, in stile gotico-lombardo del XIV secolo, a tre navate con pianta a croce latina, è stata inaugurata nel 1907 dopo che l'originale Abbazia di San Michele era stata dichiarata inagibile per il crollo del soffitto avvenuto nel 1901. Le ampie vetrate colorate furono in gran parte distrutte dai bombardamenti della seconda guerra mondiale e furono ricostruite nel dopoguerra con i disegni di Antonio Maria Nardi. Il campanile, costruito nel 1949 ed incompiuto per un cedimento del terreno che ne aveva comportato una lieve inclinazione, è rimasto danneggiato dal terremoto del 2012, tanto da dover essere abbattuto con 120 microcariche di dinamite opportunamente temporizzate per evitare che crollasse sulla chiesa. I danni del terremoto hanno comunque determinato la chiusura al pubblico della chiesa, che è stata temporaneamente sostituita da una nuova struttura ricavata dal cantiere abbandonato di quella che avrebbe dovuto diventare la nuova scuola materna del paese.

Architetture civili
 Stazione di Poggio Renatico

Architetture militari
 Castello Lambertini. Il castello, costruito nel medioevo dai Guastavillani come struttura a carattere difensivo, divenne proprietà dei Lambertini nel XV secolo. Nel corso degli anni l'antica costruzione ha subito numerose trasformazioni e rifacimenti: nel 1475 con Egano Lambertini e soprattutto nel 600, la struttura venne trasformata in palazzo signorile, perdendo il rigido carattere di rocca militare. Altra importante ricostruzione fu quella del 1660, quando il castello divenne temporanea dimora della regina Cristina di Svezia.

 Torri. Lungo tutto il territorio di Poggio Renatico, a partire dall'alto Medioevo sono state costruite dai bolognesi nell'arco dei secoli numerose torri e castelli, sia come presidio della pesca e dei trasporti lungo le vie d'acqua, sia come controllo dei confini con Ferrara. Alcune di queste costruzioni sono ancora esistenti.

 Torre del Poggio. Denominata anche Torre dell'Ortolano o Torre Fornasini venne edificata probabilmente intorno al 1240-1250 in un'area adiacente a quella nella quale qualche secolo dopo verrà costruito il Castello Lambertini. La torre era stata in origine adibita dal Comune di Bologna a torre di guardia, presidiata da sentinelle per l'avvistamento di nemici. Pochi anni dopo la torre venne ceduta al Monastero benedettino di San Procolo. In seguito la torre passò alla famiglia Gustavillani e si presume che divenne proprietà della casa Lambertini per essere stata la dote di Tomasa Gustavillani nel matrimonio con il marchese Egano Lambertini. Anche per i Lambertini la torre ebbe prevalentemente lo scopo difensivo, anche se leggenda vuole che nel 1321 vi nacque la beata Imelda Lambertini. Successivamente la torre passò agli ultimi proprietari, la famiglia Fornasini, che diede alla torre uno dei nomi con i quali è stata in seguito identificata. Nel 1963, durante il restauro resosi necessario per i danni causati da un fulmine che colpì l'angolo ovest della sommità della torre, nelle nicchie esterne della struttura vennero rinvenuti alcuni affreschi, in seguito donati dai proprietari alla Pinacoteca nazionale di Ferrara e conseguentemente asportati, restaurati ed esposti presso la pinacoteca e il Palazzo dei Diamanti. Tali affreschi, la cui collocazione originaria rimane ignota, sono stati attribuiti dopo attente valutazioni al pittore Amico Aspertini, esponente della scuola bolognese di pittura. A partire dagli anni 80 del secolo scorso, dopo un restauro a cura della Regione Emilia-Romagna e dalla Sovrintendenza alle belle arti, la torre venne temporaneamente adibita a biblioteca comunale, che in seguito fu trasferita all'interno del Castello Lambertini.

 Torre dell'Uccellino. La torre venne eretta dal Comune di Bologna a scopi difensivi e di controllo del territorio nei pressi di un'importante via di comunicazione tra Bologna e Ferrara. La costruzione iniziò nel 1242, anche se le fonti non sono concordi, e i lavori si protrassero fino al 1250 a causa anche dei continui attacchi nemici. Alta una trentina di metri, viene menzionata dai documenti d'epoca sia come torre, ma anche come vero e proprio castrum circondato da un fossato. La massiccia costruzione è rastremata verso l'alto e sormontata da una merlatura guelfa. Questo presidio perse la sua importanza strategica quando Alfonso d'Este la spogliò della campana cui era dotata per recuperare il bronzo necessario per fondere nuovi cannoni e soprattutto in seguito alla bonifica del territorio, quando la via di comunicazione presso cui sorgeva non venne più utilizzata. La torre venne quindi progressivamente abbandonata e lasciata cadere in rovina.
 Torre Verga. Denominata anche Torre Vedrega, venne costruita agli inizi del XIV secolo dal Comune di Bologna presso la confluenza tra i fiumi Riolo e Lavinio, lungo la via d'acqua detta Canale Palustre, allora rilevante sia dal punto di vista commerciale sia da quello militare, e faceva parte di una serie di altre fortificazioni a presidio del territorio. Nel 1427, con bolla papale, la torre e tutti i terreni adiacenti passarono all'antica famiglia bolognese Isolani.  La costruzione venne demolita nel 1881 e al suo posto, al bivio tra le strade che attualmente conducono a Mirabello e alla frazione di Madonna Boschi, il conte Giovanni Malvezzi pose una lapide commemorativa:

 Torre del Cocenno. La sua costruzione è di datazione incerta, probabilmente risale al 1233, ma tracce della torre potrebbero avere riscontro in alcuni atti di concessione di Ottone I di Sassonia e del conte Ugo di Toscana degli ultimi anni del X secolo. Edificata nella zona di confluenza dei fiumi Cocenno e Riolo, venne utilizzata a partire dal XIII secolo per funzioni di sorveglianza per contrastare il potere dei marchesi d'Este, con i quali il Comune di Bologna era in lotta. A partire dalla metà del XVI secolo fino alla fine del Settecento fu di proprietà dei Padri Olivetani di San Michele in Bosco di Bologna, assieme ai terreni agricoli circostanti. La torre venne ristrutturata nel XIV secolo e nel 1700 le vennero addossate delle abitazioni rurali. Nel 1796 venne confiscata dalle truppe napoleoniche e nel 1806 venne ceduta da Napoleone Buonaparte all'Università di Bologna con i terreni agricoli su cui sorgeva. In seguito al terremoto dell'Emilia del 2012 la torre è crollata completamente.

Ecology of Fear
The capacity of identifying different problems and issues correspond to a specific level of analysis that takes into account factors that revolve around its implementation and practice. Such dynamics then allow better means of analyzing its relevance and application towards reality. The book by Mike Davis corresponds not only towards offering a new perspective that mixes environmentalism, historical analysis and geographical considerations but also identifying key trends that have shaped the limited perspective in realizing the value of how man contributes towards the escalation of its own protective policies against disasters.
Analyzing the main theme supplemented by Davis in the book, it can be seen that its argument resounds in the idea of seeking to understand the capacity of exploring directions towards the expansion and development of urbanization and value of Los Angeles. By taking into account how these happened best explains the process of how inhabitants continue to adapt to the corresponding trends related to the environmental risks associated in the location (Harvey, p. 1). By exploring this area, Davis takes then into account the validity of how people in Los Angeles responded to these realities and what makes it problematic in several accounts.
To begin with this analysis, Davis tries to explore the corresponding risks associated in Los Angeles to readers. The main thrust of this has been to involve readers in understanding the evolution not only of how people respond to these calamities but also in the manner on how policies have evolved in accordance to these scenarios. By using a historical analysis, David immerses into investigation of these relevant patterns and tries to debunk meaning on each one and relates them to the overall value of fostering transcendence over such issues.
In particular, Orsi argues that "the citizens of Los Angeles have imagined disasters through a lens of fear and misunderstanding and that the result is a profoundly inegalitarian society is apocalyptically out of balance with its environment" (p. 1). One evident example explored by Davis in the book corresponds to the ability of Los Angeles to face the existence of natural calamities. Here, careful consideration was made in tracing disasters in history and provided the justification that the location remains to be dangerous and risky to be habituated.
However, there must have been a detente of such occurrence that have paved the way for people to take part in community building measures. Though this may seem to be the case, the inevitability of these threats remains to be existent and would only involve paranoia and fear on the part of locals (Davis, p. 55). After trying to unlock the environmental and geographical history of Los Angeles by exposing its natural calamities, the succeeding chapter tries to establish man-made changes in the area since it has been first inhabited.
Here, the main argument explored by Davis situates itself in the value man has made to instill further suspicion about the real situation in the environment and what the community has made in relation to these calls (Harvey, p. 3). In essence, this specific chapter sought to consolidate the human approach in dealing with these scenarios and how they had been used as instruments not only in adhering to self-interest goals but also the manner wherein one can gain profit from.
It is through such reality that Davis criticizes the current system and places the blame on what these aspects can do towards the mindset of the citizenry in relation to disasters and policy development. The succeeding chapters then connote the establishment of connections between the social realm and the responsiveness of people in Los Angeles with the environment. Here, it tries to showcase the immediate changes that have happened through history and illustrated what type of reactions and actions were made in order to avert these problems.
In essence, these elements then provided the necessary disruption not only with regards to the status quo but also the perceptions among communities concerning the significance and value of living in such areas. One example highlighted by Davis explores the relationship between the wildfires of Malbu and that modifying and improving fire prevention and protection. This media hyped category then infused better means of bridging together the essential policies and how they had been treated with specific attention to policy development and not in the challenges it has brought to the community in terms of loss of lives (Davis, p.
88). These in turn open up better means of facilitating an idea of how limited the capacity of responsiveness is and what areas have been used to supplement this for an ulterior purpose and goals. Exploring further the instillation of fear and paranoia to the people also brought about the killings of animals and natural wildlife in California. Here, the corresponding drive towards ensuring security and protection provided the rationale for urbanization and continued exhaustion of natural resources in the region (Orsi, p. 2).
This specific analogy then depicts an analysis that not only supplements the meaning and value of how reactions to these situations are made but also the ability of social constructs and instruments were used in order to fulfill its specific objectives and goals. Similarly, this was further supplemented by the old and new literature depicting disaster in Los Angeles. Such portrayal of these scenes becomes the sufficient justification in reinforcing paranoia and suspicion towards the capacity of individuals to respond accordingly given man's specific limitations.
Though the book may argue that these films satisfied their particular goal and purpose, it failed to consider its social impact within the community and their ability to shape particular directions related to expansion and furthering opportunities related to environmental awareness and sustenance by collaboration (Davis, p. 422). Overall, the book of Davis seeks to provide the justification in seeking to establish the connection between social standards and realties with that of environmentalism.
By utilizing a historical documentation and investigation, the book was able to transcend common patterns that have shaped identity building and associations by people from Los Angeles to their environment. However, due to man's continued exploits to seek personal gains and interests, it has then provided a misguided and alternative view of seeing these realities. In the end, the book provides an important ability to convey the meaning of disasters towards inhabitants. Here, it showcases the value and ability to connote meanings to social associations.
Seeing this, though Davis was critical towards the manner it was portrayed to people in Los Angeles, it also serves a good way to analyze the costs of these dynamics as it relates to elements related to social principles such as race, gender, and the socialization process itself.

One of Many Risks of the Regulatory Accountability Act: Flawed Risk Assessment Guidelines
Genna Reed, Lead science and policy analyst | May 16, 2017, 4:50 pm EDT
Tomorrow, the Senate will begin marking up Senator Rob Portman's version of the Regulatory Accountability Act (RAA), which my colleague Yogin wrote a primer about last week. This bill is an attempt to impose excessive burdens on every federal agency to freeze the regulatory process or otherwise tie up important science-based rules in years of judicial review.
One of the most egregious pieces of this bill as an affront to the expertise at federal agencies is the provision ordering the White House Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) Office of Regulatory and Information Affairs (OIRA) to establish guidelines for "risk assessments that are relevant to rulemaking," including criteria for how best to select studies and models, evaluate and weigh evidence, and conduct peer reviews. This requirement on its own is reason enough to reject this bill, let alone the long list of other glaring issues that together would fundamentally alter the rulemaking process.
The RAA is a backdoor attempt at giving OIRA another chance to try and prescribe standardized guidelines for risk assessment that would apply to all agencies, even though each agency conducts different types of risk assessments based on statutory requirements.
OIRA should not dole out science advice
The way in which agencies conduct their risk assessments should be left to the agencies and scientific advisory committees, whether it is to determine the risks of a pesticide to human health, the risks of a plant pest to native plant species, the risks of a chemical to factory workers, or the risks of an endangered species determination to an ecosystem. Agencies conduct risk assessments that are specific to the matter at hand; therefore an OIRA guidance prescribing a one-size-fits-all risk assessment methodology will not be helpful for agencies and could even tie up scientifically rigorous risk assessments in court if the guidelines are judicially reviewable.
OIRA already tried writing guidance a decade ago, and it was a total flop. In January 2006, OMB released its proposed Risk Assessment Bulletin which would have covered any scientific or technical document assessing human health or environmental risks. It's worth noting that OIRA's main responsibilities are to ensure that agency rules are not overlapping in any way before they are issued and to evaluate agency-conducted cost-benefit analyses of proposed rules. Therefore OIRA's staff is typically made up of economists and lawyers, not individuals with scientific expertise appropriate for determining how agency scientists should conduct risk assessments.
OMB received comments from agencies and the public and asked the National Academy of Sciences' National Research Council (NRC) to conduct an independent review of the document. That NRC study gave the OMB a failing grade, calling the guidance a "fundamentally flawed" document which, if implemented, would have a high potential for negative impacts on the practice of risk assessment in the federal government. Among the reasons for their conclusions was that the bulletin oversimplified the degree of uncertainty that agencies must factor into all of their evaluations of risk. As a result, the document that OIRA issued a year later, under Portman's OMB, was heavily watered down. In September 2007, OIRA and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) released a Memorandum on Updated Principles for Risk Analysis to "reinforce generally-accepted principles for risk analysis upon which a wide consensus now exists."
Luckily, in this case, the OMB called upon the National Academies for an objective review of the policy, which resulted in final guidelines that were far less extreme. As the RAA is written, it does not require that same check on OIRA's work, which means that we could end up with highly flawed guidelines with little recourse. And the Trump administration's nominee for OIRA director is Neomi Rao, a law professor whose work at the George Mason University Law School's Center for the Study of the Administrative State emphasizes the importance of the role of the executive branch, while describing agency policymaking authority as "excessive." I think it's fair to say that under her leadership, OIRA will not necessarily scale back its encroachment into what should be expert-driven policy matters.
Big business is behind the RAA push
An analysis of OpenSecrets lobbying data revealed that trade associations, PACs and individuals linked to companies that have lobbied in support of the RAA also contributed $3.3 million to Senator Rob Portman's 2016 campaign. One of the most vocal supporters of the bill is the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, whose support for the bill rests on the assumption that we now have a "federal regulatory bureaucracy that is opaque, unaccountable, and at times overreaching in its exercise of authority." Yet this characterization actually sounds a lot to me like OIRA itself, which tends to be fairly anti-regulatory and non-transparent, and has a history of holding up science-based rules for years without justification (like the silica rule). Senator Portman's RAA would give OIRA even more power over agency rulemaking by tasking the agency with writing guidelines on how agencies should conduct risk assessments and conveniently not requiring corporations to be held to the same standards.
When OIRA tried to write guidelines for risk assessments in 2006, the Chamber of Commerce advocated for OIRA's risk assessment guidelines to be judicially reviewable so they could be "adequately enforced," claiming that agencies use "unreliable information to perform the assessments," which can mean that business and industry are forced to spend millions of dollars to remedy those issues. It is no wonder, then, that the Chamber would be so supportive of the RAA, which would mandate OIRA guideline development for risk assessments, possibly subject to judicial review. OIRA issuing guidelines is one thing, but making those guidelines subject to judicial review ramps up the egregiousness of this bill. All sorts of troubling scenarios could be imagined.
Take, for example, the EPA's human health risk assessment for the pesticide chlorpyrifos, which is just one study that will be used for the agency's registration review of the chemical, which has been linked to developmental issues in children. The EPA sought advice from the FIFRA Scientific Advisory Panel on using a particular model to better determine a chemical's effects on a person based on their age or genetics and to predict how different members of a population would be affected by exposure, called the physiologically-based pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (PBPK/PD) model. The agency found that there is sufficient evidence that neurodevelopmental effects may occur at exposure levels that are well below previously measured exposure levels.
If OIRA were to produce risk assessment guidelines that were judicially reviewable, the maker of chlorpyrifos, Dow Chemical Company, could sue the agency on the grounds that it did not use an appropriate model, consider the best available studies, or that its peer review was insufficient. This would quickly become a way for industry to inject uncertainty into the agency's process and tie up regulatory decisions about its products in court for years, delaying important public health protections. A failure to ban a pesticide like chlorpyrifos based on inane risk assessment criteria would allow more incidences of completely preventable acute and chronic exposure, like the poisoning of 50 farmworkers in California from chlorpyrifos in early May.
"Risk assessment is not a monolithic method"
A one-size fits all approach to government risk assessments is a bad idea, plain and simple. As the NRC wrote in its 2007 report:
Risk assessment is not a monolithic process or a single method. Different technical issues arise in assessing the probability of exposure to a given dose of a chemical, of a malfunction of a nuclear power plant or air-traffic control system, or of the collapse of an ecosystem or dam.
Prescriptive guidance from OIRA would serve to squash the diversity and flexibility that different agencies are able to use depending on the issue and the development of new models and technologies that best capture risks. David Michaels, head of OSHA during the Obama Administration, wrote in his book Doubt Is Their Product that regulatory reform, and in this case the RAA, offers industry a "means of challenging the supporting science 'upstream.'" Its passage would allow industry to exert more influence in the process by potentially opening up agency science to judicial review. Ultimately, the RAA is a form of regulatory obstruction that would make it more difficult for agencies to issue evidence-based rules by blocking the use of science in some of the earliest stages of the regulatory process.
The bill will be marked up in the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee tomorrow, and then will likely move onto the floor for a full senate vote in the coming months. Help us fight to stop this destructive piece of legislation by tweeting at your senators and telling them to vote no on the RAA today.

Entering the National Basketball Association as an expansion team in 1988, the Charlotte Hornets have had an interesting history, though not necessarily a successful one. Many speculated that the city could not support professional basketball, this despite North Carolina being a haven for the college game.
The pundits were proven wrong as though they played like an expansion team, the attendance was huge and they led the NBA in that category during their inaugural season. Charlotte suffered through the aches and pains of being an expansion team, but finally they made the playoffs and has a few good players which gave them national attention, though when they slipped back, the attendance wasn't there and they fell to the bottom in that category and management moved the team to New Orleans following the end of the 2001/02 season.
While that might seem like it would doom professional basketball in Charlotte, the state had already shown it could support hockey (the Carolina Hurricanes) and football (the Carolina Panthers) the NBA wanted to give it another try and in 2004, the Charlotte Bobcats were born, though again feeling the pains of expansion.
Meanwhile, back in New Orleans, the team sought to come up a team that reflected their own region. For the 2013-14 season, they were renamed the Pelicans, and the city of Charlotte looked to get back their old name, which after one year they had. This is where it becomes very interesting for our purposes.
The new Charlotte Hornets absorbed the history of the old Charlotte Hornets, which splits the career of many "Hornets" whose best years are divided between New Orleans and Charlotte for our Top 50s.
This list is up to the end of the 2014/15 season.
Note: Basketball lists are based on an amalgamation of tenure, traditional statistics, advanced statistics, playoff statistics and post-season accolades.
1. Gerald Wallace
While Gerald Wallace never had the word "Hornet" on his chest, with the amalgamation of Bobcats/Hornets history in Charlotte, this is the man who we are christening the greatest Charlotte Hornet of all time.
gerald wallace
2. Kemba Walker
The Final Four MVP and NCAA Champion with the University of Connecticut, Kemba Walker has not had the same team success with the Charlotte Hornets but this does not mean that he has not put up very good numbers in the pros. He certainly did, as he moved up to our number one spot for this franchise. The Point Guard is a very good scorer whose overall game has been improving year by year and…
kemba walker
3. Larry Johnson
While we can't say we never really understood the Grandmama gimmick, Larry Johnson made an immediate splash in Charlotte and gave the team a "buzz" around the league.
4. Muggsy Bogues
While he may not top the list, standing at five foot three, Muggsy Bogues is definitely pound for pound the best Charlotte Hornet of all time. Bogues spent ten years in Charlotte where the pit sized Point Guard continued to defy logic and was a fan favorite not only in Charlotte but in the entire NBA.
muggsy bogues
5. Dell Curry
Dell Curry is the man who holds the record for being the all-time leading scored for the Charlotte Hornets. He also holds the all-time record for many other figures in Charlotte history, but his "low" rank stems from not being a superstar in National Basketball Association figures but from his slightly average stats over an extended duration as a pro in Charlotte.
dell curry
6. Glen Rice
Three for three. Glen Rice was with the Charlotte Hornets for three seasons and in every NBA campaign he was named to play in the All Star Game, the second of which would see him win the MVP for the game and cement himself as a must watch player. Rice would also go "three for three" as he would average over 20 Points per Game as a Hornet, which included a 26.8 PPG in the…
Glen Rice
7. Anthony Mason
Anthony Mason would put up some of the best numbers of his career as a member of the Charlotte Hornets. In the 1996-97 season, he would lead the NBA in Minutes per Game and that year would put personal bests in Points, Rebounds, Assists and Blocks per Game as well as PER and VORP.
Anthony Mason
8. Alonzo Mourning
The second overall pick in the 1992 Draft (behind Shaquille O'Neal), Alonzo Mourning made an immediate impact in the NBA for the Charlotte Hornets. Playing his first three seasons with Charlotte, Mourning would be an All Star twice and would average a spectacular 21.3 Points, 10.1 Rebounds and 3.1 Blocks per game as a Hornet.
9. Emeka Okafor
The second overall draft pick of the Charlotte Bobcats and the first ever pick for the Charlotte Bobcats gets a bad rap in many circles. Many articles have been written calling him a bust, but the fact remains that Okafor averaged a double-double every season of his run in Charlotte and was also the Rookie of the Year.
10. Baron Davis
Playing the first five seasons of his career as a Hornet (though only the first three in Charlotte, that cost him a few spots on this rank), Baron Davis came out of UCLA as the third overall draft pick and would become an All Star in his third year in the NBA. Davis would blossom into one of the better Point Guards in the NBA in a Charlotte uniform and he would continue that growth…
11. Marvin Williams
The Sixth Man of the 2005 NCAA North Carolina Tar Heels Championship Team and former 2nd Pick Overall would sign with the Charlotte Hornets nine years after his collegiate glory. Thus far, Williams has provided good production in the five seasons he has played in Charlotte and could rise significantly in this ranking.
marvin williams
12. David Wesley
Undrafted out of Baylor, David Wesley proved a lot of people wrong when he successfully transitioned to Point Guard and put up solid numbers when he made his way to Charlotte. Wesley would put up his biggest Points per Game Average as a Hornet, though he was not always as productive as he should be as a distributor. Still, Wesley was a decent Point Guard for Charlotte during his tenure and warrants this high rank.
david wesley
13. Elden Campbell
Elden Campbell was with the Charlotte Hornets for three and a half seasons (plus another half-season when the team was relocated to New Orleans). While Campbell would put up some of his best offensive numbers as a Hornet, he would also be known for his defensive skills, which would always made him a coveted big man in the NBA. It was not an accident that Charlotte made the playoffs three years in a row while…
elden campball
14. Cody Zeller
Nicknamed "Big Handsome", Cody Zeller has completed five seasons with Charlotte, which to date is the only team he has ever played for. While Zeller will never be confused for a flashy player, he has proven to be certainly capable and is often praised for his unselfishness and dedicated to team play. A cerebral player, Zeller rarely makes mistakes and his likability often hides the fact that maybe he hasn't reached the level that should…
cody zeller
15. Al Jefferson
A surprise free agent signing, Al Jefferson came with a large paycheck and large expectations, and while Charlotte has not become a power in the East, Jefferson has certainly done his part to make the team as competitive as he could. In his first season with Charlotte, he would average a double-double and would make Third Team All-NBA.
al jefferson
16. Eddie Jones
Eddie Jones was already a certified star from his time with the Los Angeles Lakers, where he went to two All Star Games, however as a member of the Charlotte Hornets, Jones would make his third All Star appearance and put up his best scoring numbers as well as his best performance in PER.
Eddie Jones
17. Vlade Divac
Vlade Divac was one of the more popular players in the NBA, but for many in Charlotte, this is the guy who was traded for the rights to Kobe Bryant. History now shows that trade being a little lopsided (though let's be honest, do you really see Kobe playing his entire career in Charlotte?) but history also shows that Divac was a very good player who put up good numbers in every metric.
Vlade Divac
18. Raymond Felton
The fifth overall ick in the 2005 NBA Draft, Raymond Felton was the Point Guard for the North Carolina Tar Heel team that won the NCAA title in just before his draft. Felton was not a champion in Charlotte, but Felton was a solid scorer and distributor in the pros.
raymond felton
19. Hersey Hawkins
Coming out of Bradley, Hersey Hawkins had a solid three year run (over two stints) with Charlotte, where he would put together a solid 11.4 Points per Game run. That may have been a lower statistically than he was with the Philadelphia 76ers years before, but his run in Eastern Pennsylvania helped make him a draw in Carolina.
Hersey Hawkins
20. Nicolas Batum
As of this writing Nicolas Batum has proved to be a solid acquisition for the Charlotte Hornets. The product of France has shown a decent scoring ability as he has averaged 12.8 Points per Game, which includes a 15.1 PPG season in the 2015-16 season, a career high. Batum's defensive abilities don't always go noticed outside of Charlotte but it should as that has been some of the better attributes of his game. He could…

MicroStrategy Inc., one of the most prominent headquarters operations at Tysons, has renewed its lease and plans to invest $6 million in capital improvements, adding 300 jobs.
Fairfax County successfully competed against Washington, D.C., to retain the headquarters, which provides 800 jobs.
In announcing the news Monday, Gov. Ralph Northam said, "Virginia is home to the strongest IT workforce in the nation, and the company will continue to benefit from our exceptional talent pool and technology infrastructure that continues to attract major corporate headquarters to Northern Virginia. We are proud of the Commonwealth's continued partnership with MicroStrategy, and thank the company for choosing Fairfax County and Virginia for this important expansion."
MicroStrategy, a worldwide provider of enterprise analytics and mobility software, occupies more than 200,000 square feet at 1850 Towers Crescent Plaza where it has been located since 2010. The company has operated in the county since 1994. Under the new lease, the company plans to use its existing space to accommodate an increased headcount with new jobs expected in research and development, sales, marketing and services. With more than 4,000 customers across major industries, the company provides enterprises with software and services so they can deploy intelligence applications.
In his remarks, MicroStrategy CEO Michael J. Saylor said, "We have chosen Fairfax County, considered the East Coast center of technology innovation, for its proximity to the nation's capital, a vibrant business community, access to several international airports and Metro's Silver Line, and an incredibly diverse and highly educated workforce ... We are delighted to be part of this dynamic and growing local community."Newmark Knight Frank represented MicroStrategy in the lease transaction.
In addition to being a major employer in the county, the firm reported 2,216 employees worldwide at the end of 2017.
It has been an active corporate citizen in the community. MicroStrategy supports STEM for Her, a non-profit organization that empowers women and girls by providing scholarships and financial support to programs that foster interest in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) related careers.
The FCEDA worked with the Virginia Economic Development Partnership to secure the project for Virginia. Northam approved a $1million grant from the Commonwealth's Opportunity Fund to assist the county with the project. Funding and services to support the company's employee training activities also will be provided through the Virginia Jobs Investment Program.

Well I have officially finished my two week break from the training season. We have started our new season already but before things get too carried away I wanted to update everyone on what happened during the short but sweet off-season. As many people know I travelled to Planica after Oslo to go ski flying. Planica was a great way to top of a great season. Once I got back in the USA it was time to relax. The first week back I spent my time skiing and enjoying the nice spring weather. I even managed to get a few bike rides in.
Last week I was in Steamboat Springs, CO for the annual Ski 4 Yellow. Ski 4 Yellow is a fundraiser to fight cancer. This event is quickly becoming my favorite cancer fighting event. I have had a blast the last two years there doing my favorite thing in the world and fighting cancer while doing it. This year the event raised well over 100,000 dollars. The cool part about the 4 yellow event is a lot of the money remains in the community to help enhance their resources to detect and fight cancer. I cannot even begin to describe how many benefits come of this for anyone who is touched by Cancer. In fact the money raised hit close to home when one of the hospitals own staff was the first to receive treatment from a machine purchased thanks to the fundraiser.
After Ski 4 Yellow it was back to work. April 2nd kicked off the start of the new season and our team jumped right into the testing and training to get off to the right start. My week was hiccuped by a nasty cold I came down with on Wednesday however I am recovering fast and should be right back at it next week. I plan on doing several bike races again this year and riding for ColeSport of Park City, UT. Look out for more videos this summer as well. Ski Prophet was kind enough to donate a GoPro to my cause. I plan on putting it to good use this summer! More soon!

What Jersey Shore's Vinny Guadagnino Really Thinks of DJ Pauly D's Bleach Blond Hair
By Emily Rekstis
What else are friends for?! Jersey Shore's Vinny Guadagnino teased his friend Paul "DJ Pauly D" DelVecchio over his new bleach blonde strands — but it's all in good fun.
The Best Celebrity Hair Transformations of 2020: Miley Cyrus, Barbie Ferreira, Jada Pinkett Smith and More!
When the duo virtually spoke with Us Weekly about their new MTV Show, Revenge Prank with DJ Pauly D and Vinny, we asked Guadagnino what he thought about his buddy's drastic new look.

"Well, I was a little upset. He didn't get my permission first," he jokingly replied. DJ Pauly D then started to joke that the two are in a fight.
"Yeah, you know, like when girls break up with their man and they change their hair color and they got a tattoo," Guadagnino continued. "He did everything. Booked a vacation, he went to Tulum."
However, it wasn't a breakup that led Pauly D to this bold new 'do. Instead, it was simply just boredom brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic quarantine.

"COVID got me doing some weird things, man," he tells Us. "I got too much time at home. I got to get back to work."
Even though he's into the look for now, he's not sure it'll stick around when things start to pick up again. "It's definitely a different vibe," he says. "I don't know. I'm not saying I'm going keep it, but it's pretty cool." Hey, we get it! Bleached hair is a high maintenance look and needs constant dye jobs and upkeep.
But for now, it's fun. "I get asked [if blondes have more fun] too, but you know, I have fun. It doesn't matter when my hair is blonde, brunette, I have a lot of fun. And I had fun doing it! It's a lot of work though. Maintenance. I have to use purple shampoo and everything."

Though the reality star has always been keen on maintaining a sleek hairstyle. He told Us back in September 2020 that his hair is "everything" to him and always has been.
"I started gelling my hair at the early age of grade school," he explained. I went to a Catholic school so we all wear the same uniforms and the only difference would be our hairstyles."

Then in December 2020, he posted a steamy selfie from his car debuting his new blonde locks. "Activate Super Saiyan DJ Mode……," he wrote in the accompanying caption.

HORNE donates $60,000 to charities in California and Utah
RIDGELAND, Mississippi, September 6, 2022 – Two non-profits soon will receive support for their community efforts thanks to HORNE and the HORNE Community Foundation. HORNE team members voted for the Davis Education Foundation in Farmington, Utah, as the winner of $50,000 with the United Friends of the Children in Los Angeles County, California, coming in second with an award of $10,000.
The Davis Education Foundation began in 1982 to help schools, students and teachers. Its mission is to help homeless high school students in Davis County by building centers within schools. These drop-in centers will provide education and community services so students receive help with daily and future needs.
The United Friends of the Children began in 1979 and has worked to help young people in foster care become self sufficient with education and housing through advocates and helping them develop relationships with people in the community.
As part of its 60th anniversary celebration, HORNE employees will vote on non-profits nominated from six regions where the firm serves in the U.S. mainland, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The foundation, on behalf of HORNE, will award $60,000 every week for six weeks, for a total of $360,000.
"Throughout the past 60 years, HORNE has grown from a local accounting practice to a nationwide professional services firm with a mission of delivering with care," said Neil Forbes, HORNE's managing partner. "We live and work in the very communities where these worthy organizations are serving and we're proud to give back to those who are doing so much good."
The HORNE Community Foundation was established by the firm's partners in 2021 to provide financial support to the areas where team members live and serve.

Pritzker kicks off 'All in Illinois' to reinforce stay-at-home message
Published: Apr. 2, 2020 at 3:03 PM CDT
Governor JB Pritzker launched a new statewide effort today called 'All in Illinois' to reinforce the state's core message, backed by scientists and public health experts: stay at home and stay safe.
As Illinoisans continue to practice social distancing to stay healthy, 'All in Illinois' is a way to unite residents across the state and remind them we are all in this together.
"I've taken virtually every action available to me to protect our residents and slow the spread, and now, our strongest weapon against COVID-19 is you," said Governor JB Pritzker. "For everyone in Illinois, we as individuals must commit to stay home, stay safe and practice social distancing to stay healthy.I'm asking you to join us and be all in for Illinois."
All in Illinois is supported by a series of public service announcements featuring famous Illinois natives, including Jane Lynch, Deon Cole, Jason Beghe, Jackie Joyner Kersee and Matt Walsh. The PSA videos reinforce the importance of staying at home during the COVID-19 crisis and encourages everyone to do their part to stop the spread of the virus. The PSA celebrity videos can be viewed by visiting
Allin.Illinois.gov
People can also show their solidarity by updating their Facebook profile photos with the All in Illinois frame image and share messages with friends and family on social media using the #AllinIllinois hashtag. Additionally, Illinois residents can show they're committed to being part of the solution by displaying All in Illinois signage in their yard or in their window. All in Illinois signs are available to download
