Case is 'victory for journalism'
The court ruled Mr McLagan had conducted careful research
The defence of "responsible journalism" in libel cases can extend beyond newspapers to books following an unprecedented Court of Appeal ruling.
Three judges dismissed a claim for damages from ex-police officer Michael Charman against journalist Graeme McLagan and his publishers Orion.
Mr Charman claimed Mr McLagan's book Bent Coppers, about alleged police corruption, libelled him.
Mr McLagan said the ruling was a "victory for responsible journalism".
The Police Federation of England and Wales, which backed Mr Charman, now faces an estimated £1 million legal bill, with £400,000 to be paid in 28 days.
Painstaking evaluation
Last year, Mr Charman won his defamation case against Mr McLagan. He claimed the book libelled him by suggesting that there were "cogent grounds" of suspecting him of being involved in corruption.
But three appeal judges overturned that decision, saying Mr McLagan and Orion had acted responsibly in producing Bent Coppers: The Inside Story of Scotland Yard's Battle Against Police Corruption.
Former BBC correspondent Mr McLagan said: "This is a victory for solid, responsible investigative journalism.
"Exposing police corruption is obviously in the public interest as was recognised by the trial judge, the appeal court and even by Michael Charman's own defence team."
The court found that McLagan had taken steps to verify the story and as a result of his honesty, his expertise on the subject, his careful research, and his painstaking evaluation of a mass of material, the book was protected by the defence known as Reynolds qualified privilege.
This allows the media to publish information, even if it turned out to be untrue and defamatory, provided the public had the right to know it and it was the product of responsible journalism.
Lord Justice Ward, sitting with Lord Justice Sedley and Lord Justice Hooper, said he was "totally satisfied" the book was a piece of responsible journalism.
It is the first time that the Reynolds defence has succeeded in the publication of a book.
Caroline Kean, solicitor for Mr McLagan and Orion, said the ruling was "ground-breaking".
"It is not limited to newspapers, it means all media and there is no time constraint," she added.
Peter Roche, chief executive officer of the Orion Publishing Group, said: "This judgment will enable serious investigative works covering matters of public concern to be published in future and increase the freedom of debate in the UK."
The Police Federation was not available for comment.

My husband is a Trekkie. Not one of the sort that dresses up and hitch-hikes around half the globe to attend Star Trek conventions, but he is an avid follower of the series and films. I myself, on the other hand, find Star Trek more of a nuisance than a diversion.
First of all, Picard's background makes him the ideal American hero. Picard is a pioneer in space. His job is to go where no man has gone before. His encounters with new galaxies, planets, life forms good and bad, are essentially not very different to the experiences (real or in movies) of the wagon trains in the Old West.
Picard also embodies the American dream of a truly self-made man: He made his career without the help from family or an old boys' network – actually, against the will and values of his father. Moreover, Picard has shown resilience when facing personal setbacks in his career. Single-mindedly pursuing a starfleet career from an early age, when being refused entrance to Starfleet academy upon application, he re-applied a year later, successfully. Looking at the latest reliable data that compare various cultures of what people want of a leader, Picard's overall leadership style is not very "French," at least not by the standards of the 21st century. Many of Picard's most outstanding characteristics, such as showing high integrity and having a high-performance standard for himself as well as for his staff, are not the characteristics that make an outstanding leader in France – but they are the ones that make an outstanding leader in the US.
So, is Picard an American Hero in the disguise of a Frenchman? I would argue no. Picard is an excellent information gatherer and decision maker – but he makes decisions in a typically French way. He rarely makes real consensus decisions, but he gathers opinions from each team member before reaching an integrated conclusion, giving his team the feeling of being highly involved. He has many characteristics that make him more typical for the Old World, rather than the US (I don't just refer to his accent and his preference for Earl Grey Tea).
Picard's appeal partly consists of his refusal to be portrayed as a hero. Picard's humility and modesty, almost shyness sometimes, make him more a member of a winning team than a solitary champion. After any threat that he and/or the Enterprise have successfully averted, he emphasizes that he is not an independent individual, but rather integrated into the democratic structure of starfleet that allows every voice to be heard, even junior ranks. Being rational, intellectual and objective, he embodies the traits that French leaders are praised for in the media. He is not so much an inspirational, visionary leader than a discreet operator who projects his strengths through silence. A little quirky – but that only makes him more lovable.
And how is it that Picard is so respected as a leader even now, 20 years after his "invention?" His leadership style fits with the problems we're currently facing. From Picard, we can learn how to lead sustainably – building and maintaining a high-performing team, developing others yet retaining top talent; acknowledging people (and other species) in their entirety and caring for their emotional and physical well-being as much as their work output.
Admittedly, being such a leader is easier in an ideal organization like Starfleet, and in the reality of our lives we face more difficulties than Picard might, but he would argue that that should not discourage us from striving for continuous improvement.
Does your leadership style resemble that of someone else that you know or admire? Which of those similar attributes do you think have helped you to be successful?
Every business has its own strategies to survive today's global competitive market. Goals should be set to direct the company to success.


Read my story of diving Tortuga in 2008 here.
Located on the same road as Vaca Ha, the entrance to Tortuga can be found after driving the jungle road seemingly forever until it stops at the pool of water somewhat larger than Vaca Ha. The cave starts smallish but then opens up, similar to Vaca Ha, with beautiful formations everywhere. There is a T soon after entrance with the left branch doing sharply deeper, through the halocline and into amazing saltwater passage known as Gateway. The right branch is shallower and apparently continues for 1200 ft in the freshwater zone.
The walls were bleached white and had a typical "swiss cheese" appearance. Unlike some other caves, the passages were a bit tighter and had a definite river shape to them. Some passages were wide and low, some were narrow and tall, but all had the signs of how water had shaped them. While I could understand how the passages were formed, the flowstons in the middle of some passages continued to puzzle me.
Wide open decorated spaces. The upper layer of water was tannic, creating surreal effects for the photography and reducing visibility.
There was another T on the main line whit the right branch on the T on the freshwater line leading to the very dark and gloomy passage, shaped much like the salt water one. Passage continued as far as we could see, but we turned back after a while.

Q: Problem of understanding transitive relations I would like to understand the transitive property in relations...I just cant get it in my brain. I mean the definition is crystal clear. However I still struggle. For example:
Given the set $A=\{0,1,2\}$ the $R=\{(0,0),(0,1),(1,1),(2,2)\}$
According to the definition if $(a,b) \in R$ and $(b,c) \in R \to (a,c)\in R$
So $0\sim0$ and $0\sim 1$ then I need $(0,1)$ again? I makes no sense for me, I mean the numbers are the same..I mean is $a=b$ also possible?

A: If $\sim$ is a transitive relation on $A$ then if $(a,b)\in R$ and $(b,c)\in R$ then $(a,c)\in R$. You have $0\sim 0$ and $0\sim 1$ which implies $0\sim 1$. Therefore $(0,1)\in R$, which is something that's true. Recall that$\{a,a,a,a,a\}=\{a\}$ so you don't need $(0,1)$ to be repeated in A, you already have it.

There a many powerful pro and con arguments about the confiscation of historic statues—of Robert E. Lee in New Orleans, Confederate Soldiers and Sailors in Baltimore or Jefferson Davis in Memphis to name a few—or the removal of names on prizes and honors of people once admired. In most cases their political positions, remarks or writings represented or reflected racist sentiments, often typical in the day, that are unacceptable now. Yet not all have been equally demoted.
Robert E. Lee statue formerly in New Orleans
Take Albert Einstein. In recently released travel diaries he wrote "some racist things about the Chinese back in the early 1920s," Peter Dreier reported on prospect.org. "As I point out in my book," wrote Dreier of The 100 Greatest Americans of the 20th Century: A Social Justice Hall of Fame, "none of the 100 people in my Social Justice Hall of Fame was

(or is) a saint. They all had vision, courage, persistence, and talent, but they also made mistakes." He also wrote "I would certainly incorporate Einstein racist comments in my profile of him, but that wouldn't exclude him from being in the pantheon of great American radicals and progressives."
Drier continued: "Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood and a crusader for women's health and birth control, briefly endorsed eugenics.
Margaret Sanger Photo: pbs.org
Theodore Roosevelt's was a foe of big business, but his 'big stick' imperialism outraged many progressives. Alice Paul, the great women's suffrage leader, was an anti-Semite. Eleanor Roosevelt also absorbed the casual anti-Semitism of her upper-class WASP upbringing."
Then there's the former Laura Ingalls Wilder Award. A division of the American Library Association [ALA]– the Association for Library Service to Children {ALSC]–renamed the award the Children's Literature Legacy Award. According to Michael Taube in The Wall Street Journal, "'Wilder's legacy, as represented by her body of work, includes expressions of stereotypical attitudes inconsistent with ALSC's core values of inclusiveness, integrity and respect, and responsiveness,' the association announced in a press release.
Laura Ingalls Wilder Photo: en.wikipedia.org
"Characters in 'Little House on the Prairie' say 'the only good Indian is a dead Indian' three times," Taube reported. "Wilder's references to her white settler family's manifest destiny has also troubled the black community," he wrote.
Taub continued: "Hardly anyone would defend these sentiments today, but people are products of their times. The Wilder Award was established in 1954, and its first recipient was Laura Ingalls Wilder herself. If we judge past luminaries by today's standards, who's next to go?"
For 36 years the ALA collaborated on Banned Books Week with Amnesty International. Taub quoted "An ALSC blog post about it last September called the week a time to 'celebrate intellectual freedom.'" He asked: "How does the ALSC square the spirit of Banned Books Week with its scrubbing of Wilder's name?" and concluded "I tried to reach them, but didn't receive a response."
How best deal with the past when looking at it through today's rose colored glasses?
Why are we inconsistent in our castigation of prominent historic figures, punishing some and not others? For example, should the World Cultural Council rename its Albert Einstein World Award of Science?
What does it take for some, and not others to lose their exalted place in the firmament of the admired?
Do you agree with the name change made by the Association for Library Service to Children from the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award to the Children's Literature Legacy Award?
Should we leave well enough alone or in the forewords of book reprints, such as Ingalls Wilder's, put in historic context her remarks and attitudes that are now considered hurtful and demeaning?

July 26th, 2018 ASK Said:
We should take off the glasses and stop trying to rewrite history. The "Fahrenheit 451" aspects of such revisionism are frightening.
July 26th, 2018 Jeanne Byington Said:
ASK,
The tidbit that Michael Taub shared about the Banned Books Week affiliation to the association that took away Wilder's award once again suggests that it helps knowing all the facts. I was sorry that the organization didn't respond to his query as I'd be interested to know their response.
I hope that the next step in this sweeping clean initiative won't find historians eliminating information that might offend one or another group.
This period in history makes several things clear:
1) With all the indignation about the past, we see the WH muzzling the press. Is this appropriate and PC and American? I refer to Kaitlan Collins of CNN who repeatedly asked DJT about the Cohen tapes during a press conference. She was then barred from attending the subsequent open press conference in the Rose Garden. Some of her colleagues spoke up for her.
2)Giant groups of people looking at the same event take away such opposing impressions you wonder if they watched what you saw or if they had any memory at all. A newsman on WOR 710 radio said he thought Collins was rude to ask her question. The same station urges its stringers to ask intrusive questions of Joe and Jane Q. Citizen caught in a news story.
It seems OK [though makes me uncomfortable] when a reporter shoves a mic at someone who has just lost all their belongings in a tragedy–or worse–but that is standard even, I imagine, on Fox. In addition, for a man who tells his following not to believe what they see or hear to approve of this approach seems contradictory.
So who are we to whitewash the past?
July 26th, 2018 Protius Said:
You touch upon a topic which has been much debated, and left unresolved, by historians for a long time.
Supposedly, on 21 July 356 BC, Herostratus, perhaps a slave and certainly a nobody, set fire to the Temple of Artemis, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, at Ephesus, a Greek colony in Asia Minor, now Turkey. When asked why he had destroyed this remarkably beautiful object, Herostratus stated that he did so to make sure that his name would be remembered forever. Consequently, the Ephesians, when they condemned him to death, decreed that his name never be recorded or remembered. However, the eminent geographer and historian at the time of the late Roman Republic, Strabo, when he learned of the story decided that, no doubt in the interest of full disclosure, to publish it…, and I'll bet you that more people, even today, know Herostratus's name than how Millard Fillmore earned his living. Was Strabo right? I think, on balance, he was.
As to the larger issues your post raises, I think accuracy and honesty are what count. Don't be hypocritical and rewrite history to suit current tastes. Those civil war Confederate statues are part of our history. As unpleasant as it may be for many of us, they are our history and should not be "never recorded or remembered."
Protius,
Full disclosure: I did not know about Herostratus nor did I know how Fillmore made a living before he became VP and then President. But you make a good point, even if it wasn't the takeaway you'd meant to share: It's easier to remember negative things while some of the positive get lost.
Anyway, what good in erasing what was? It was for a reason and that it is nor more, if the change is positive, is a GOOD THING. Do people hide promotions on their resumes? Do corporations neglect to publicize strides in R&D or sales?
However, I just thought of something. When people terrorize in me-too shooting incidents in movie theaters, at concerts, in schools, I think that the incident should be covered but NOT the name of the perpetrators. Their faces should not be flashed on TV and computer screens. So, in that context, I'm with those who punished Herostratus, who "decreed that his name never be recorded or remembered." People so driven to be in headlines [or their equivalent], without doing positive things to deserve a spotlight, should not be encouraged.
I strongly disagree.
Punish Herostratus, and tell the world why he set fire to the temple. The truth always wins.
One of the reasons we are in the terrible mess we are in is that our leaders do not tell us we intuitively know to be true, rather what we have become cynical enough to recognize as wishful thinking. Tell the public how bad things really are, and you will get a very different response.
July 27th, 2018 Lucrezia Said:
Those responsible for attempting to diminish worthy historical figures are as foolish as the ancients who tore down predecessors statues along with other records of their accomplishments. It would appear that common sense and foresight have not progressed for thousands of years.
Thank goodness for the technical end to intelligence: Central heating, phones, planes & etc.!

Everyone is eager to compare "Google Office" with Microsoft Office, and while I feel that comparison is inevitable, I also think it's misguided. I don't believe Google Docs will ever compete feature-for-feature with MS Office. Nor should it.
Being web-based, Google Docs has some big advantages over the stuck-on-the-desktop MS Office. Most importantly (as described in the video), it offers some pretty impressive collaboration tools that are really hard to duplicate in Office. I hope, and think, they'll continue with this theme by finally integrating the JotSpot wiki into their web application suite. I think that would be the point where people would end the product to product comparison and realize that Google Docs is a much more than an Office replacement.
I keep thinking that these web apps would be perfect in a K-12 education setting. Let kids really collaborate on a project while giving the teacher comment rights and a revision history of who did what when. That's pretty hard to beat. What do you think EduTech?

Cleanaway agrees to acquire Tox Free Solutions
December 11, 2017 by Waste Management Review
Cleanaway has agreed to acquire Tox Free Solutions (Toxfree) for about $671 million.
Cleanaway is offering $3.425 for each Toxfree share and the integration of the business is expected to deliver about $35 million in annual synergies over a two-year period. Toxfree shareholders will be able to receive a 5c a share interim dividend.
To fund the acquisition, Cleanaway will launch a fully underwritten $590 million 1 for 3.65 pro rate accelerated entitlement offer and draw down debt from a new multi-tranche facility.
Toxfree cites growth in FY2017 results
Toxfree provides market update at UBS Australasia Conference 2017
Expansion of Cleanaway's Ravenhall tip approved
In a statement, Toxfree board of directors reportedly unanimously recommended that shareholders vote in favour of the scheme, and will vote the shares they own or control in favour of it, in the absence of a superior proposal.
Cleanaway Chief Executive Officer Vic Bansal said acquiring Toxfree will consolidate Cleanaway's position as Australia's leading waste management company, balancing and re-weighing its integrated waste model.
"The acquisition will accelerate the implementation of our Footprint 2025 strategy by adding prized infrastructure assets across the country, as well as contributing an exciting new business in the form of a leading, vertically-integrated provider of healthcare waste management products and services, including collection, transport and treatment of sharps, clinical and related waste," he said.
The scheme consideration values Toxfree's fully diluted equity at approximately $671 million. The transaction will be subject to standard regulatory conditions, including Australian Competition and Consumer Commission approval. A scheme booklet, independent expert's report, reasons for the directors' recommendation and details of the scheme will be prepared and provided for review to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission for review, expected in February 2018.
Toxfree expects to update the market on an indicative timetable in January 2018.

Toxfree has provided an update across its target markets: industrial, resources, infrastructure and health and technical.
In a public presentation to the UBS Australasia Conference 2017, Steve Gostlow, Toxfree Managing Director, highlighted Toxfree's target market as valued at $4.6 billion in 2016.
Toxfree's total market was valued at $15.8 billion and also includes: commercial and government, households and the construction industry.
The company's growth has been aided by strategic acquisitions, organic growth and investment, allowing it to diversify. It now boasts 1,564 employees in 81 operating locations and 895 vehicles.
Toxfree's whole-of-life solution to waste
Some of the key growth drivers behind its growth in the health sector including an ageing population, advances in medical treatments, new waste streams and increased regulation.
In the infrastructure sector, population and metropolitan growth and increased government infrastructure expenditure has helped boost this area.
The industrial sector has meanwhile seen additional demand through increased landfill costs, product stewardship schemes and increased regulations. Civil infrastructure in Victoria and NSW continues to drive strong utilisation and earnings.
The resources sector has seen growth in LNG, iron ore and coal production, a greater focus on productivity and increased safety and environmental responsibilities.
Notable acquisitions over the years include Daniels Health, which covers the medical sector. Daniels Health continues to meet Toxfree's financial expectations, up 13 per cent on the same time last year. The acquisition of Wanless also helped it with its Queensland expansion.
Toxfree has grown its e-waste recovery base through its HazPak systems and BluBox technologies , which allows it to safely handle hazardous waste.
The company forecasts the second half of FY18 to be stronger than the first, as existing contracts gain momentum in Darwin and soil remediation projects commence. New contracts with Inpex, FMG, Rusca Environmental Services (Shell Prelude) are also expected to gain momentum in the second half. The expansion of total waste management services to Daniels customers is also underway in Sydney and Melbourne.

Toxfree completes strategic transaction with JJ Richards & Sons
June 6, 2017 June 6, 2017 by Waste Management Review
Chemical waste management organisation Toxfree has completed an asset swap with privately-owned waste management company J.J Richards & Sons.
The strategic transaction with JJ Richards involves the sale of Toxfree's Tasmania and Rockhampton business and the purchase of JJ Richards' industrial business in Roma, Queensland.
The transaction involved an effective asset swap at equivalent earnings and asset value.
Toxfree in a statement said the Roma assets and revenues better align with Toxfree's strategic focus and provides opportunity to strengthen its existing businesses in Roma.
It said the purchase of the JJ Richards' industrial business in Roma is a strong fit with Toxfree's strategy to service the Coal Seam Gas resource sector in Queensland.
"JJ Richards has major contracts with Schlumberger for Origin production drilling, as well as several other industrial clients in the region," the company said.
Steve Gostlow, Toxfree Managing Director said the CSG sector in central Queensland was a very attractive market for Toxfree.
"We expect to realise synergies and improve our returns through consolidation with our existing industrial services business in Roma," he said.
"The region will be a large gas production hub for decades to come, and Toxfree is focused on positioning its business as the leading provider of specialist waste and industrial services to the market."

Toxfree releases first half financial year results
March 3, 2017 March 3, 2017 by Waste Management Review
Fleet-owning waste and recycling firm Toxfree has released its first half financial year results, citing an expected growth in the industrial, resources, health and infrastructure sectors.
In its report, the company noted those companies were expected to grow at a higher rate than the rest of the market, alongside a requirement for specialised technologies, intellectual property and operating licences providing high barriers to entry.
By 2021, the company said the total market is expected to grow by 12 per cent to $17.7Bn, with Toxfree's target segments anticipated to grow at a higher rate of 15 per cent due to a number of market, environmental and regulatory drivers.
The report explains growth in the health waste sector continues to increase due to an ageing population and increased spending, while increased cost and regulation of landfill is driving the industrial waste sector.
Growth in liquified natural gas, iron ore and coal was attributed to the predicted increase in resources, while population and metropolitan growth will lead to increase government spending in infrastructure.
"Toxfree's objective is to grow our market share from 11 per cent currently to 17 per cent by 2021 by focusing on our four target markets and moving to a leaders leadership position in each one," the company wrote.
The areas included the industrial, resources, health and infrastructure waste sectors, construction, municipal and commercial and government waste.
The firm recorded a net profit down 54 per cent to $5.9 million, with much of the reduction related to costs involved in purchasing Worth Recycling and Daniels Health Australia.
National waste and recycling body to advocate for industry
March 17, 2017 February 16, 2017 by Waste Management Review
A new body working to create a cohesive national vision for Australia's waste management industry, the National Waste and Recycling Industry Council (NWRIC) has officially formed, following the first meeting of its executive in Sydney on February 13.
NWRIC has received support from Australia's largest waste management companies – and has begun operations.
The Council will be empowered to begin its work thanks to the support of its national members – Alex Fraser Group, Cleanaway, J. J. Richards and Sons, Solo Resource Recovery, Suez, Toxfree, Remondis, ResourceCo and Veolia.
"The waste and recycling industry needs a national voice to advocate for a fair, sustainable and prosperous industry for all stakeholders," said Phil Richards, Chairman of the NWRIC's host association Board.
"Australia's waste management industry is an essential service, and through the NWRIC, we will be asking the Commonwealth along with State Governments to support our initiatives to take the industry forward."
The NWRIC will serve waste management enterprises by creating industry led policy. The Council will be led by newly appointed CEO Max Spedding, and supported by Secretariat manager Alex Serpo.
The NWRIC will work in close partnership with jurisdictional affiliates. This partnership will allow the Council to represent and canvas concerns from many of Australia's 450 small and medium sized waste management enterprises. Together, state affiliates and the national office will coordinate to create, and advocate for, cohesive national policy.
From today, the Council will commence working to create, share and build support for policy positions which will move the industry forward. Initial areas of focus include better planning, a fair market, the national harmonisation of the regulations governing the industry and effective policing of standards.
The Council welcomes media enquiries, dialogue with waste management companies seeking involvement in the NWRIC and feedback from stakeholders.

I was using Alltrails last night trying to figure out what hike we could do this morning. I was looking for something that would be in the 3-5 mile range, and wasn't too far away as we had to be home by a certain time. Stumbling across the Cornish Estate Loop, I looked through the pictures, and there were some nice ruins. I'm a sucker for ruins. It was only 5.3 miles, so it seemed perfect. We got way more than we expected.
The Hudson Highlands State Park is known for Breakneck Ridge, by far the most popular hiking destination in the Hudson Valley. We haven't hiked it yet, but know that it gets pretty busy. We arrived at the trailhead for the Washburn Trail around 8:45AM on Route 9D in Cold Spring, noticing there were already a few cars there. There are signs for the Bull Hill Loop, Cornish Trail, and the Washburn Trail. We went right for the white blazed Washburn Trail. The trail starts out well manicured, with a gradual ascent. We bumped into a deer 3 minutes in, a foot off the trail. The trail starts to get a bit rockier, still moving up. You enter a clearing then continue right. This is where it starts to get tough, but rewarding. You walk along the ridge, and through the trees you get glimpses of the Hudson River. It becomes a steep, rocky climb, while challenging, but not overly difficult. The first viewpoint looks out over Cold Spring and the Hudson, with West Point in the background. Continuing upward, you reach the summit of Bull Hill. The views are absolutely gorgeous.
Leaving the summit, you start working your way down which is very easy. You meet up with the blue blazed Notch Trail, continuing north then west. Another junction is less than a mile away, so we headed south on the red blazed Brook Trail. You are on this trail very briefly, when you meet up with the blue blazed Cornish Trail. The 1.4 mile Cornish Trail is very easy. You are still descending but very gradually. Walking through the woods you start to notice some old foundations and stone structures. There is a garage that has just the skeletal remains of the roof, and right past that is the old Cornish estate. Like I said above, I'm a sucker for ruins. These did not disappoint. Jackie and I were able to imagine what a beautiful home it once was. Stone walls still stand, three-story chimneys rise up all over. It was fantastic, and we enjoyed spending some time exploring through them. Finally, we continued to the end, which was by far the easiest, you walk down the paved driveway of the estate.
Picking this hike, I didn't know we were in for some amazing views. I would have been happy with just the ruins, so the views blew me away. This so far might have been our favorite hike. We loved almost everything about it. The one downside is the amount of people who go through here. We ran into a bunch of large groups of people, more than we have seen on probably all of our hikes through Fahnestock. When we got back to the car, there had to be hundreds of cars along Route 9D. In the future, I would probably try to stay away from these trails on the weekend, but if I had to, I would still go early like we did today. Maybe earlier.

Is It Already Over For Disney's Star Wars?
Well, who saw this coming?
It seems like less than 6 weeks ago, the sky was the limit for Disney's Star Wars. The hype train was off the charts and everyone wanted to see the future of the franchise. Well, a few weeks later it seems like the wheels are falling of Disney's cash cow. I've already gone into my feelings on The Last Jedi and I stand by my statement calling it the most divisive Star Wars film in history, you either love it or hate it. However, the box office performance of the film has a lot of people looking deeper into the franchise and wondering "Is the party already over for Star Wars?"
Audiences for The Last Jedi have turned their noses on the latest project, not only making it arguably the most hated Star Wars film ever but the box office numbers are a significant dropoff to the previous film The Force Awakens. A near 700 Million dollar shortfall between the two films in just 2 years is very concerning given the audience reactions. Not only was the domestic drop off of 70% worrying for Disney but the international box office drew some stunning results as well. The Last Jedi BOMBED in China, so bad that the country pulled the film entirely from the Chinese market just TWO weeks after its release. A massive blow to Lucasfilm after the push to put this franchise in the country.
Now I can't pretend like the movie has flopped, it hasn't. 1.3 Billion dollars worldwide is nothing to look down on but you have to put this in perspective. Star Wars is one of the most recognizable franchises in the world. People will literally watch a film just because it has Star Wars in the title because that's how much it means to them. I believe however that The Last Jedi has killed the nostalgia factor for many people. The memories from the original trilogy are over and dead in more ways than one. When you look at the future of Star Wars, there isn't much excitement for characters that Disney has established. Toys are not selling the way they use to. Outlets are overstocked with expensive Star Wars collectibles that simply no one wants. If Disney's plan was to hook a new generation of fans to their cash cow for the next 40 years going forward, it isn't happening.
If you think the rough patch for Star Wars is over, you may want to hold that thought because news regarding their latest project due out in May called Solo: A Star Wars Story forecast things are only going to get worse for Disney. Reports of a behind the scenes disaster with the film have gained more traction in the last few weeks to the point there are claims that Disney is expecting the film to flop…4 months BEFORE it's release.
A source close to the film's production claims "Disney is bracing themselves for the Han Solo movie to bomb. They were worried about it before all The Last Jedi controversy, but now they're essentially writing Solo off. The lead actor, Alden Ehrenreich, can't act, and they had a dialogue coach on hand for all of his scenes. On top of that, the script is unworkable. It's going to be a car crash." Ouch. Rumblings were bad when Phil Miller and Chris Lord were fired as the film's directors due to creative clashes with Kathleen Kennedy but these new reports only confirm suspicions of chaos in the House of Mouse.
If Star Wars The Force Awakens was the honeymoon for the franchise and audiences alike, then 2018 may be the year divorce papers are drawn. The damage has been done, Fans are angry, the next project on tap looks to be a train wreck months before its release and if it is, what if anything will drive audiences to want to see Star Wars: Episode IX in 2019 at this rate? Star Wars is a boxer on the ropes, it isn't done yet but a couple more punches and they won't be able to recover.

A few weeks ago I was flipping through a magazine (I have a nice friend who recycles all her home decorating magazines to me):-) when I saw this ad below.
Umm, gorgeous and I want that rug were my exact thoughts! After a bit more time gawking at the photo I hopped on over to Horchow.com to see if it was possibly in my price range. Initially I was teased by a few rugs that were decently priced but then I saw 'mine' and it was a mighty blow–for the size I needed (a 6×9) they were asking a whopping $1,899.
Having seen a few posts here and there on blogs about crazy people painting rugs it had crossed my mind quite a few times. Especially since we had lots of leftover carpet still rolled up in our garage from the hardwood floor installation. My mind immediately went to how I could replicate this Horchow rug DIY style.
I set out the rug (an old piece of carpet) onto a large drop cloth.
Then began to line up the tiles in diagonal rows.
And started adding varying lengths of shoe molding centered between the tiles.
I used Rustoleum's Deep Blue color from Home Depot. I ended up using 3 cans. Each can cost $3.44.
AS a frame of reference the most accurate depiction of the color is the picture below. It is a deep blue, almost navy color.
It's not perfect (none of my DIY's are) but I quite enamored with it considering it only cost me $10.50 (spray paint) and I love the pop of color and lattice, basket weave design. I found the lattice design to be very forgiving. Assuming you don't have old 12×12 tiles lying around 🙂 I think poster board cut into a 12×12 size would work well. The dollar store sells poster board 2 for $1. Just be sure to weigh it down a little with rocks or something you don't mind getting sprayed with paint.
As for the lines between the poster board 12×12 s if you don't have spare shoe molding lying around you could try frog tape (a type of painter's tape). I would try it out first on a spare piece to make sure it will adhere to the rug material.
As for obtaining carpet remnants you could try Craigslist, friends that have gotten new floors, or even price out basic carpet at the stores. Another idea is to look around for a basic rug at a low price to hack. Here is a link to where you find good deals on rugs.
Love this! Makes me wish I hadn't just thrown out my carpet. Looks awesome!
How clever! And what a great result!
Tamara! Fantastic tutorial on how to paint a rug! I love it.
This rug is beautiful! Great tutorial! We would love for you to come and link up with us at Your Designs This Time.
This is pure genius Tamara! It turned out so much like your inspiration. I have seen this done before, but have been too intimidated to try it. You nailed it!!
Just wondering how is it holding up after vacuuming?
Great question! Admittingly I haven't given it a good vacuum yet. I am curious too. I will let you what I find out!
Okay so I've vacuumed it a couple of times now and I haven't noticed any changes so far. This rug is in one of our least used rooms. I've been wondering if lightly spraying the rug with a clear enamel spray paint would give it a bit more protection for those who want to use it in a higher traffic area?
Wow what a fantastic idea such a great bold statement piece. it really makes that room pop now! I love tutorials that I can actually do, thank you so much. glad I found you today on the Shabby Nest Frugal Fridays link up.
Lovely rug! I am in the market for a rug but they are ridiculously expensive…after seeing your project, I may try to copy what you are doing!
Thank you, Lisa!! The power of paint never ceases to amaze me!
Tamara- it looks amazing!! What a cool idea. I love the blue color and pattern you chose.
Thanks, Tracy! The color is a bit bolder than I normally go for but I'm loving it!
I am so impressed – your DIY rug rocks! Love the cool geometric pattern and the pop of color that it brings to your space. Thanks for sharing on Best of the Nest!
Thank you, Kris! So sweet of you!
Hi! Visiting from Driven By Decor's Best of the Nest! This is SO genius, I can't even believe it! Love how you took high end inspiration and created your own for a fraction! Pinning this brilliant idea:) Great job!
Wow! Fabulous transformation, love the lattice design and the navy blue. Great job!
P/S: I am in the process of making over my guest bedroom. Come by and take a look if you like!
I love love your DIY! Does the spray paint harden at all? Thanks for sharing!
FYI, I bought a 5×7 light beige remnant, with edges, all nice looking lol, from Kmart, for $29.99! NEVER ever shop at Kmart but I couldn't resist when I saw this thing. Not sure how much other places sell remnants for but if there's a local Kmart near, might be easier and/or cheaper to just go there?
This rug is fab! This post is definitely getting pinned. I have got to try this for myself. You are so talented.


ST. GEORGE — Two direct lightning strikes on power lines caused power to go out for many Dixie Power customers across St. George and Washington City.
Crews are on the scene trying to restore power "as soon as possible and as safely as possible," according to a tweet from Dixie Power.
Two direct lightening strikes on our power lines caused the outages. Crews are still assessing the situation. Updates to follow.
Dixie Power provides electricity for most of St. George and Washington City south of the Virgin River.
Immediately after this report was originally published, Dixie Power tweeted it expects power to be restored by 10:30 p.m.
The storm that caused the power outages also dumped rain across Washington County, causing the National Weather Service to issue a flash flood warning for Washington County until 9:45 p.m. Flash flooding is expected in areas around St. George, Washington City, Hurricane and Kanab according to weather service.
Slot canyons and tributaries in Kane County are also at risk of flooding. This includes areas around Lake Powell.
Flash flood warnings have also been issued by the weather service for parts of Lincoln County, Nevada, and Mohave County, Arizona. These areas include Beaver Dam, Arizona, and Beaver Dam State Park, Nevada.
In case of a flash flood, stay out of washes and creeks. Immediately seek higher ground.
I assume pets "use" this semi-public area? I personally wouldn't let my kids swim in it.
When talking about local and area locations, you must use a writer who is familiar with the area! Nobody calls it State Route 228. Nobody would have a clue where that is. It is Main Street in Leeds!
I mean, do you know where Highway 34 is? Of course not. We call it St. George Blvd.


Here is a review of the Yamaha CLP & CVP digital pianos. These are from the Yamaha Clavinova series and are premium home upright pianos with the traditional upright looks.
Yamaha already has the YDP series of digital piano-keyboards but these are higher in the chain and have much better sound as well as aesthetics.
Even when compared to the pianos from its challengers like the Roland, the Clavinovas score nicely. The Clavinova CLP & CVP use sound samples from Yamaha's best concert acoustic pianos. Yamaha has decades of expertise on the subject of Piano as well as recording technology and you can depend on them to make some superior quality digital pianos with the best sound and features.
But won't you get anything cheaper from Yamaha? You would, considering that Yamaha has such a wide range of piano & keyboard instruments. At the lower/intermediate end of Yamaha's product line-up you have the 88 key grand arranger keyboards and the P-series pianos with basic piano sounds.
But in case you are considering high quality pianos that come in the traditional make, something that will give you one of the most original touch and sound, you certainly won't be able to go wrong with the Yamaha Clavinova CLP & CVP digital pianos. Of course you will pay more but it definitely is worth it.
You get the Clavinova both in upright as well as grand pianos. In terms of the assortment of pianos, the Clavinova piano comes in the CLP and the CVP series with the CLP piano costs being less than the CVP pianos. The CLP pianos are not ensemble pianos nevertheless the CVP pianos are which means they have those built-in accompaniments. Besides these much of the other functions are usually identical across these pianos. The CVP pianos, being higher in price have more functions like vocal harmony and 16-track sequencer, when compared to the CLP pianos.
A Yamaha Clavinova digital piano can cost is in the range of $2k to $10k US dollars. If you think maybe these pianos cost on the higher side then you need to understand that these are premium pianos and they're truly worth it.
Remember that Yamaha Clavinova not only has excellent sounds, they are elegant looking pianos that will complement the décor of your home.
But then as you see the price range differs a lot because you get simple upright pianos with just the basic piano sounds to a top of the line ensemble grand piano. So choose a Yamaha Clavinova CLP / CVP Digital piano that suit your requirements.

Q: Arraylist - "cannot find symbol errors" Hi I am trying to make a movie database. Have decided to use arraylist as we cannot use arrays. It will have 4 classes, Movie, MovieDatabase, Playlist and Interface. I want the to add Movie objects from my Movie class into an Arraylist in the Moviedatabase and then be able to add and remove them from the interface. I am getting lots of errors saying it can't find the variables. I used another similar question as a template and can't figure out why it won't compile.
Here is my Movie Class
    public class Movie
 {
  private String name, director;
  private int fileSize, duration;

  public Movie()
  {
     name = "";
     director = "";
     fileSize = 0;
     duration = 0;

  }

  Movie(String newName, String newDirector, int newfileSize, int newDuration)
  {
     this.name = newName;
     this.director = newDirector;
     this.fileSize = newfileSize;
     this.duration = newDuration;

  }
  public void setName(String newName)
  {
      name = newName;
  }
  public void setDirector(String newDirector)
  {
      director = newDirector;
  }
  public void setfileSize(int newfileSize)
  {
      fileSize = newfileSize;
  }
  public void setDuration(int newDuration)
  {
      duration = newDuration;
  }
  public String getName()
  {
      return name;
  }
  public String getDirector()
  {
      return director;
  }
  public int getfileSize()
  {
      return fileSize;
  }
  public int getDuration()
  {
      return duration;
  }

}

And the MovieDatabase Class
 import java.util.*;

    public class MovieDatabase
      {   //start class
      private ArrayList<Movie> list = new ArrayList<Movie>(4);   //creates ArrayList
      Movie newMovie = new Movie(newName, newDirector, newfileSize, newDuration);   //instantiates Movie class

     public void add(Movie newMovie)   //method adds a new Movie object to the array list
  {   //start add
     list.add(newMovie);

  }   //end add

    public void add(String newName, String newDirector, int newfileSize, int newDuration)   //accepts parameters from main method to add to new object
  {   //start add
     newName = name;
     newDirector = director;
     newfileSize = fileSize;
     newDuration = duration;

     newMovie.setName(newName);
     newMovie.setDirector(newDirector);
     newMovie.setfileSize(newfileSize);
     newMovie.setDuration(newDuration);

     list.add(newName,newDirector,newfileSize,newDuration);

  }   //end add
 }

//end class

    method ArrayList.add(int,Movie) is not applicable

A: Movie newMovie = new Movie(newName, newDirector, newfileSize, newDuration);
You need to define newName, newDirector, newfileSize, and newDuration, as these variables don't currently exist in MovieDatabase.

A: You don't need to specify the length of the array list as 4. The purposes of an ArrayList is to have array like performance with list properties, such as add and remove items by name OR position, size checking, etc.
Also, the method add(Movie newMvoie) adds the movie to the class variable list, but you try create the list inside the class. Realistically you should declare a list member variable without the new constructor.
public class MovieDataBase {
    private ArrayList<Movie> list;
}

You Can't just write code in a class outside of a method or constructor. You would need to create a MovieDatabase constructor, and possibly have another class to drive the application.

A: following code is using variables not declared in the MovieDatabase class
public void add(String newName, String newDirector, int newfileSize, int newDuration)   //accepts parameters from main method to add to new object
  {   //start add
     newName = name;
     newDirector = director;
     newfileSize = fileSize;
     newDuration = duration;
     newMovie.setName(newName);
     newMovie.setDirector(newDirector);
     newMovie.setfileSize(newfileSize);
     newMovie.setDuration(newDuration);
     list.add(newName,newDirector,newfileSize,newDuration);
  }

what you mean is maybe:
public void add(String newName, String newDirector, int newfileSize, int newDuration)   //accepts parameters from main method to add to new object
  {
     list.add(new Movie(newName,newDirector,newfileSize,newDuration));
  }

Karaganda region
Malaysian company will build a school for 700 places in Karaganda
In the spring of 2022, it is planned to start construction of a private modern school for 700 students in Karaganda. A new educational institution will be built in the South-East, in the Taugul microdistrict. The investor will be King Development from Malaysia.
The timing and construction plans were discussed by the akim of the Karaganda region Zhenis Kassymbek and the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Malaysia to the Republic of Kazakhstan Date Syed Mohamad Bakri.
The future school is designed for students from grades zero to 11. Separate buildings will be built - for junior schoolchildren and seniors, a large sports ground. The recreational zone will occupy 50% of the entire territory of the educational complex. The languages of instruction are Kazakh, Russian and English.
- The training will take place according to the Finnish method. This is not a standard training system, it is more aimed at developing critical thinking, "said Chingis Akhanov, deputy general director of King Development LLP. - Local teachers will teach. They will be trained by Singaporean and Finnish specialists. We have big plans - we want to build a private school in each regional center.
State grants will be provided for gifted children.
"There is a huge need for schools in Karaganda," the head of the region noted. - Seven schools are needed in different parts of the city. But we do not have such a segment as you build, so we are ready to provide all kinds of support in the implementation of the project.


Palpable anxiety has gripped Umuagaragu, Enyiogugu community in Aboh Mbaise local council area of Imo State, following the gruesome murder of Uzoma Okerenkwo, a 13-year old JSS 2 student of Logara High School, Ngor Okpala, by unknown assassins.
Fear and apprehension enveloped the entire community soon after the lifeless body of Uzoma was discovered along a bush path close to his home.
A villager, who spoke on strict grounds of anonymity, told Vanguard that "Uzoma's throat was mercilessly slashed by the assassins".
One of the stories associated with this gory tale was that Uzoma was last seen in company of two other boys before his lifeless body was discovered in the bush.
When Vanguard visited the home of the deceased's family compound, his widowed mother was looking completely dazed and unable to speak on the issue.
However, late Uzoma's uncle, Chief Donatus Okerenkwo, explained that the deceased had gone to the market earlier in the day to buy some food stuff for his mother and kola nuts for him.
"News filtered in that there was a corpse in a nearby bush. On getting to the scene, we found out that the reported unidentified corpse was that of Uzoma", Chief Okerenkwo recounted.
Answering a question, the aggrieved man reasoned that his cousin could have been killed elsewhere but carefully brought close to the family home by the assassins.
"There is no visible sign of a struggle between the slain boy and the murderers. The blood clot around his neck sadly tells the sad tale of how the boy was slain", Okerenkwo recounted.
Vanguard gathered at press time that a suspect was already helping the police to unravel the circumstances that led to Uzoma's death, while his remains has been moved to an undisclosed morgue, awaiting autopsy.

The thousand year old knowledge of life in its full complexity, known as Ayurveda has its source in India and can be traced back more than 5000 years. Also rich in Ayurveda history, Sri Lanka offers a unique chance to experience traditional treatments that are rooted in this ancient concept. Based on the presumption that health is more than the absence of illness, its gentle, holistic approach to health and well-being encompasses all areas of life. The physical body, our state of mind and the energies in the environment we live in, according to Ayurveda, are all intertwined and have a direct influence on our energetic balance.
Any imbalance of these energies causes discomfort or illness. Maintaining the bio-energetic balance, despite any negative effects of lifestyle or from the environment is the declared aim of the traditional Indian medicine called Ayurveda.

Challenges facing the global fight against drugs
Monday, 04/25/2016, 10:46
VOV.VN - The 2016 UN General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on the World Drug Problem, which ended on April 21, was held for the first time in 2 decades.
UN officials and world leaders discussed a new approach of the fight against drugs, putting people at the centre. However, differences between countries spark concerns about anti-drug efforts.
The meeting was attended by more than 1,000 delegates from UN member countries, territories, international organizations and inter-governmental and non-governmental organizations.
In 1998, the UN General Assembly held a Special Session on the World Drug Problem (1998 UNGASS), which approved a political statement and anti-drug measures. 18 years later, little progress was made.
According to a report by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), 246 million people, equivalent to 5% of the world's population aged from 15 to 64, did use drugs illegally.
Drugs-related casualties in 2013 numbered 187,000. In 2014, the global opium output reached 7,550 tones, the second highest since late 1930. The use of cannabis is predicted to increase in many regions.
The 2016 Special Session on the World Drug Problem agreed on the need to address the issue, but how to address it encounters mixed reactions from 193 member countries.
Many countries prefer reducing criminalizing the use of drugs and mitigating the harmful effects of drug abuse. Leaders from some Latin American countries argued that arresting and jailing drug edicts did not help them give up drugs and that the aggressive fights against drugs for decades failed, ruining lives of thousands of people all over the world.
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto proposed certain flexibility and change of ineffective policies. Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales stressed on the humanitarian approach and improvement of public health instead of punitive measures.
He added drugs-related policies should match joint statement on human rights and putting the people at the centre, rather than drug substances.
Singapore, China, Thailand, Iran and Russia were consistent with their tough policies, including executing drug criminals and opposing the legalization of drugs.
Singaporean Minister for Home Affairs and Law Kasiviswanathan Shanmugam said such approach would trigger widespread drug trafficking and use, destroying the whole society in Singapore, where 200 million travelers transit annually.
Obviously, authorities have failed to agree on a joint solution, challenging the global fight against drugs.

At Tijuana Bariatrics, we're proud to offer patients a wide variety of surgical options. Each patient is different, so it's important that weight loss procedures be able to address their needs specifically. The mini gastric bypass surgery has increased in popularity over the years since it's been able to promote healthy weight loss with a number of advantages over traditional gastric bypass surgery.
The weight loss surgery specialists at our Tijuana, MX practice would like to take a moment to cover the basics of the mini gastric bypass. We'll then consider some of the key advantages it has over the traditional gastric bypass procedure.
The mini gastric bypass works in much the same way as a traditional gastric bypass, though the procedure itself is much less invasive and extensive.
During a mini gastric bypass, the stomach is divided into a lower pouch and a smaller upper pouch. The upper pouch is resected and attached to the small intestine, bypassing about 6 feet of intestine in the process. The upper stomach pouch allows patients to feel fuller faster (restrictive weight loss) while the resting also results in less absorption of calories during digestion (malabsorptive weight loss).
The mini gastric bypass surgery requires less time than a traditional gastric bypass procedure. Normal gastric bypasses tend to take about 2 hours to perform. A mini gastric bypass can take as little as 30 minutes. The surgery is done through small incisions on the abdomen, with small tools used to make the necessary adjustments.
Since the surgery is not as involved as the traditional gastric bypass, there is less rerouting of the intestines required. This tends to make the surgery a bit easier to perform and easier on the patient's body as well.
Since the procedure requires less revision of the stomach and intestines than traditional gastric bypass surgery, a mini gastric bypass typically means a reduced risk of post-op complications. Ultimately this means the surgery is safer for patients during the procedure and in the crucial first weeks of recovery.
Reversing a traditional gastric bypass procedure is extremely difficult, but reversing a mini gastric bypass is simple by comparison. If a patient requires a revision of their mini gastric bypass, the procedure can be undone with ease, allowing the patient to avoid health risks and other issues related to poor surgical outcomes.
Since the mini gastric bypass is not as expensive as the traditional procedure, the cost of the surgery is lower. This savings means that medical tourism patients will be able to save even more on their surgical weight loss procedure.
Mini gastric bypass surgery patients are able to lose a great deal of excess weight thanks to the surgical procedure. With a healthy diet and regular exercise, patients will be able to keep that weight off for the long haul and experience improved health and wellness.
For more information about mini gastric bypass surgery and how it can benefit you, be sure to contact an experienced weight loss surgeon. The team at Tijuana Bariatrics will answer all of your questions and address your concerns about the procedure.

Nepal flights to 28 EU member countries banned
Nepali airlines cannot fly to 28 EU member countries due to Nepali authorities' negligence on safety. Though no airlines from Nepal flies to the European Union (EU) – due to lack of aircraft with the national flag carrier also – the European Commission (EC) has put all the Nepali airlines on its safety blacklist banning them from flying to the EU. It has published a list of unsafe carriers across the globe. The EU that has been repeatedly asking Nepal to improve the aircraft safety, said that the current safety situation in Nepal does not leave it any other choice than to put all of Nepali carriers on the EU air safety list. The EU transport commissioner Siim Kallas issuing a statement said that the EU does hope that this ban will help the Nepali aviation authorities to improve aviation safety. Meanwhile, Turkish Air is the single airlines that connects Kathmandu with the Europe. Nepal Airlines have stopped its flights to Europe due to lack of aircraft many years ago. Likewise, in the 22nd update of unsafe carrier, the EC has said that the several countries, including Philippines, Sudan and Zambia have improved the safety, though they still remain on the banned list.

Every hotel business needs to think about what it has to do to increase bookings. The idea is that firms will use successful methods that have helped them win new guests, but also think of current trends to attract tourists. One of the most important things an accommodation can do is personalize a guest's experience. A traveller wants to feel special so it is vital to collect data from a hotel's website and booking engine to learn about customers. An app certainly helps in this endeavor as it records a number of details about a tourist during booking.
Brilliant customer service will help hotel firms to win customers who will hopefully become loyal in the long-run. Getting accurate data on guests is crucial as there is no such thing as the average guest any longer, as travellers usually search for something unique. A crucial part of appealing to tourists is done through social media, as millions of travellers are on major platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and picture-sharing site Instagram. Here hotel companies must include fantastic videos, beautiful pictures and links to interesting blog posts in order to effectively advertise the hotel accommodation to the buying public.
Something important companies need to think about is that smartphones are more likely to be used than any other device in this modern digital age. A hotel website has to be mobile-friendly and have a brilliant hotel booking engine that will allow customers to reserve a room easily. Tourists are more likely to research a residence through a smartphone hotel site or an app as it is easy to do on the move. Another top way to engage customers is by using email marketing, as this will appeal to them especially if the messages are tailored to their needs. Firms must think what would work best in terms of the guests they are emailing.
They can introduce competitions or a special offer for tourists that book a room before a certain date. Companies should also remember to reply to all online reviews whether they are positive or negative, and must always be polite to guests regardless of what they have said about the firm. The consideration should always be what is required to increase website traffic, and accommodations must not forget that their online site needs to be great. Creating the best hotel website designs is crucial for firms to attract customers to an online site.
The consultants at World Hotel Marketing are always ready to help create a fantastic site with a design that suits the company. They generate the best web design offering regular reports to indicate what methods have been used to succeed, and what needs to be done to improve in the future. Understanding the web journey of a potential customer is crucial, and clients should put themselves in the shoes of their potential guests. The experts at World Hotel Marketing will help create a wonderful, bespoke website to help a firm succeed.


There are 8 reviews of Loukhoum.
I have tried several Rahat Loukhoum based fragrances and find the Ava Luxe the most wearable of those commonly available in the US without coming across as a dessert cart. Almond is balanced nicely with pistachio. Honey, which can be so cloying, is brightened with rosewater. There is a sharp burnt sugar that may be confused with hazelnut which brings out musk on the drydown.
In my opinion, Loukhoum is Ava Luxe's masterpiece. As I have said before, I am not afraid to enjoy a gourmand or sweet fragrance - so long as it is just right.Loukhoum is soft and elegant and doesn't scream "food". The pistachio note is delightful, and the creamy/musk/rose base wears naturally. Loukhoum makes a presence and has good sillage while still remaining light. It vaguely shares something in common with Noa,which I also enjoy, probably due to the blend of a subtle floral with gourmand and green notes. I would say this is versatile enough to wear for day or night.
I'd say this smells like hazelnuts and roses. It's very nice but something in this actually upsets my stomach.
Loukhoum is a gourmand fragrance that is inspired by Turkish Delight, and it is actually wearable – some I've tried aren't. This Loukhoum is not in-your- face as several of the other ones. This Loukhoum is more subtle; it's sweet but not gooey syrupy; and it has a tolerable sillage. The pistachios and hazelnuts are appetizing but not cloying, and even the difficult- to- use almonds are handled with an excellent artistry. The rose is subtly excellent and it definitely moves the fragrance into the "elegant" territory. Loukhoum's sillage is civilized and the longevity is superb. This is a refined, well made scent: it's performance and price could not be better. This is one of the best – surely the most wearable – interpretation of Turkish Delight I've seen.
The nuts and musk in this Loukhoum make this scent very gender neutral. Creamy, soft, and delicious...not overly foody.
There are no member images of Loukhoum yet. Why not be the first?

AAA Tag Heuer Swiss Replica Watches

TAG Heuer Will Work With China's Official Mars Mars Discovery Program
September 6, 2018 TAG Heuer Autavia Heuer-02 Replica
Cheap TAG Heuer Replica Watches is working on the Chinese Mars Exploration Program, the official timekeeper for space exploration history. This week, the design of China's first Mars probe was announced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of Beijing, the CEO of Beijing TAG Hewlett-Packard Jean-Claude Beaver and the famous wizard of the brand. TAG Heuer's sponsorship program, the planned 2020 China Mars mission will include TAG Heuer watches.
Because this is still relatively early in the four years and projects and cooperation, there are still quite a few unknowns. One thing we know, however, is that if the mission is successful, TAG Heuer Replica can claim to be on Mars for the first time. It is not clear that the observation model will travel, and four years later there will be more possibilities, despite the brand's marketing materials, TAG Heuer 01. It is also not clear whether there will be some role or function of the task – or if it will be just a passive passenger.
In the event in Beijing, Mr. Beaver wore a replica of the TAG Heuer stopwatch in his jacket sleeves. The astronaut John Glenn wore a spacesuit reminding us of all the history and spatial pedigree of the label. In 1962, the TAG Heuer Replica Watches was the American astronaut's arm on the 7th orbit around the earth, and he became the first American and fifth person space. The Soviet Union defeated Americans who were sent into space to wear Russian clocks, but as TAG Heuer is proud to point out that "the first Swiss watch in space" is TAG Heuer. I remember the 2012 TAG Heuer 1887 Carrera Calibre SpaceX chronograph (practice), got into orbit and then docked at the International Space Station and private airline SpaceX.
China's first Mars program will include orbit, landing, the deployment of this red planet and Rover, building on the success of China's lunar exploration program. The farthest Mars is more than 400 million kilometers from the Earth, and the higher data transmission rates required, remote operation from the detector, technical challenges include pushing the detector to reach the Earth due to relatively low levels of sunlight and its dusty . China has also said that the final manned mission of Mars, scheduled between 2040 and 2060, is undoubtedly already lined up.
The event also announced in Beijing that global solicitation is used for names and trademarks from public programs. It's not clear how to submit an entry – but please suggest only a noble name (unlike when the public voted for an international space station node "Colbert" comedian Stephen Colbert; or unfortunately Boaty McBoatface). The naming and trademark competition is a good way to get more exposure plans, and more exposure to China can only be on Fake TAG Heuer Watches. Further, if you like even a small portion of NASA's marketing success with Apollo, it can offer Chinese, who have bought a lot of Swiss watches, similar "ownership" ωSpeedmaster Moonwatch offers Americans, as well as deep links to the brand. To tell the truth, one does not know what happened. China FIYTA and its watches, such as Spacemaster, specially dressed for the Chinese astronaut Zhai Zhigang, etc., waited for his 2008 spacewalk…
Space games are clearly an important but competitive brand watch. Mr. Beaver has a lot of experience with official timing and strategic partnerships, but milestone watches are definitely a rare and valuable commodity in space. Everyone wants to know: Does this Sino-Swiss alliance lead to a limited edition watch? We can only hold our breath.

Other things equal, as price falls, the quantity demanded rises, plus as price rises, the particular quantity demanded falls. Requirement shows the quantities of a product that will certainly be purchased at various possible prices, other items equal. In short, you will find a negative or inverse partnership between price and amount demanded. Economists call this inverse relationship the law of demand (MCConnell, Brue, & Flynn, 2009, g. 47). Basically, this implies less is bought at higher prices, plus more is purchased at lower prices. An illustration of the law associated with demand is how air carriers respond to higher oil in addition to jet fuel prices. Flight companies necessary to figure an approach to buy less fuel yet still offer the exact same amount of flights. Airlines performed this by buying more fuel-efficient planes; which made it possible to buy much less fuel, devised a plan to fill all chairs or at least more than earlier, and changing operations to improve efficiency.
the number regarding sellers in the market.
A change in any one or more of those determinants of supply, or supply shifters, will certainly move the supply curve for a product either right or left (MCConnell, Brue, & Flynn, 2009, p. 47).
The (now largely discredited) efficient markets theory says that all market participants receive and act on all the relevant information as soon as it becomes available. If this were strictly true, no investment strategy would be better than a coin toss. Proponents of the efficient market theory believe that there is perfect information in the currency markets. This means that whatever information can be found about a stock to one investor is available to all investors (except, of course, insider information, but insider trading is illegal) (" Efficient Market Theory. investorwords. com", 2014). According to Mishkin (1978), "the effective markets theory implies that will the macro-econometric models currently useful for policy analysis in addition to forecasting are deficient in a fundamental way.
Écart, or excess supply, signify that the quantity of a good or service surpasses the demand for that certain good at the purchase price inside which the producers might wish to sell. This ineffectiveness is heavily linked within conditions where the cost of a good is set too high, resulting within a diminished demand whilst the quantity available increases excess. Shortage is a term used to specify that the supply produced is under that of the quantity becoming demanded from the consumers. This disparity signifies that the current market equilibrium in an offered price is unfit for that current supply and need relationship, noting that the price are set too reduced.


Hello fellow 'Fetti Friends! Welcome to the February Creative Hop...I love Jen's saying "8 is great" I have to agree, especially this month as today is my B-day and I couldn't think of a better way to spend it, but with Reverse Confetti!
Today, we have a fun Creative Challenge this month - ABC, Anything but a card! This was the perfect challenge to make a SN@P book page with the NEW Reverse Confetti Documented Confetti Cuts, Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panels and the Here's the Story Stamp set.
If you arrived here from Heather's blog you are in the right spot, if not head on over to the Reverse Confetti blog for the full list of all the blogs and start at the beginning. Be sure to leave comments on all the blogs along the hop for a chance to win! Comments are open until Thursday at Noon CST and a winner will be announced on Friday in the Week in Reverse post!
I decided to create a SN@P layout of some of the things I love, love, love...coffee, my Keurig, cuddling up with a good book and a coffee. This layout was the perfect chance to use my Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panels. I used the 3X4 rounded rectangle die from the Documented Confetti Cuts to cut the Quick Card panel. I used a few other dies from the Documented Confetti cuts and the Circles 'N Scallops, Tag Me and the heart from the Love Note Confetti Cuts. This page fits the 6X8 SN@P book pocket.
Again, I used the 3X4 die from the Documented Confetti Cuts to cut a couple Quick Card panels and cardstock. I also used the Tag Me Confetti Cuts and I stamped sentiments from the Here's the Story Stamp set documenting a few more things I love...Hannah and I at the cottage for Kate's (now my sister-in-law) bridal shower, Kato and his beautiful blue eyes and the fam at the Maroon 5 and One Republic concert.
Thanks SO much for hopping by and havin' a little look at my SN@P book pages with the Reverse Confetti Documented Confetti Cuts, Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panels and the Here's the Story Stamp set. Now hop on over to Lisa's blog to see what gorgeous ABC creation she has in store!
