Brits are paying 43% above the European average for their alcohol, beaten only by Sweden, Ireland and Finland, according to the latest analysis from the Office of National Statistics (ONS).
In comparison, the data revealed the French pay 11% below the EU average for their alcohol, in Spain it's 16% below and in Bulgaria 35% less than the EU average is paid.
The research showed that, despite the Chancellor delivering a "welcome and much-needed" freeze on wine and spirit in the November Budget, Britain still has a long way to go to rebalance the UK's "excessively high duty rates", said Miles Beale, chief executive, the Wine & Spirit Trade Association (WSTA).
"The government should do more to rebalance duty, and offer British consumers a fairer deal and tourists to the UK a more attractive proposition - both of which would support the more than 550,000 people working in the UK's world leading wine and spirit industry," said Beale, adding the "disproportionately high prices" were not helping Britain promote itself as an attractive destination for tourists.
Sales figures published in the last WSTA market report revealed the average price of a bottle of wine sold in shops increased 3% to £5.56, with prices affected by the triple whammy resulting from Brexit's impact on the pound, rising inflation and the 3.9% inflationary duty rise on alcohol imposed by the Chancellor at his Budget last March.
Sales of wine in pubs, bars and restaurants show an average priced 175ml glass of wine has gone up 20p to £3.74 compared to 2016.

Disney seems to be the latest studio to force movie rental services such as Netflix to wait before buying their films. According to a LA Times report, Disney has begun delaying select title releases to rental companies and Netflix by 28 days.
The waiting period is meant to push consumers into buying a DVD or actually go watch the movie when it's on the big screen rather than going to a cheaper kiosk or putting it on their Netflix queue.
Currently, Redbox will have Disney's "John Carter" which available by June 12. Blockbuster Express won't have "John Carter" until July 3. Netflix has John Carter listed for rent on DVD and Blu-ray Disc without an availability date.

Q: Using FPDF with specific contact form 7 forms I'm using the solution listed here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/convert-form-output-to-pdf-attachment to create a pdf using form data with fpdf and contact form 7 on a Wordpress build.
Does anyone know how to attach the pdf to one particular form?
This solution works great but it seems to attach the pdf to all contact 7 forms. Is there a way to have it only attach to a specific form for those of us that have multiple forms on one site. Maybe by form id?
Thanks,

A: Have solved it. Used the following variable and if statement.
$id = $contact_form->id();
if ($id==16) where 16 equals the id of the contact 7 form
There's probably more efficient solutions but I'm not proficient in PHP.

Vizio already had a comprehensive line-up of Dolby Atmos soundbars and at CES 2019 the company added two more, including a 5.1.4 soundbar.
Vizio took the plunge last year and launched a full line-up of soundbars that to varying degrees deliver the Dolby Atmos experience in the living room.
The company will soon add 5.1.4-channel and 3.1.2-channel Atmos-capable soundbars to its line-up. The 5.1.4 solution comes with two rear speakers and a subwoofer, whereas the 3.1.2 system has a subwoofer only.
- "Identifying the right home audio solution isn't a one-size-fits-all approach, which is why Vizio is continuously adding new configurations that allow users to tailor their sound experience to match their listening environment," said Bill Baxter, Chief Technology Officer, Vizio.
Vizio said that the soundbars have Chromecast built-in, Google Assistant support, and Bluetooth. There is no support for Apple Airplay 2, despite the company being one of the launch partners for Apple's push to get Airplay 2 into TVs.
In addition, the company announced new 2.0, 2.1, and 5.1 soundbars. These have DTS Virtual:X that aims to simulate a surround effect.
Vizio has positioned its soundbars as value-for-money products but there are lots of competitors in the field - and more will join soon. At CES 2019, TCL announced that it will enter the soundbar segment that is growing in popularity, according to the industry. Other mainstream TV brands such as LG, Sony, and Samsung also offer comprehensive line-ups of soundbars, including some with Dolby Atmos.
More information and pricing will be announced closer to the launch date, the company said.

Nelipčići ali Nelipići, hrvaška srednjeveška plemiška rodbina.

Nelipčići izhajajo iz plemena Snačićev, enega od dvanajstih hrvaških plemen. Njihove posesti so se nahajale med rekama Krko in Cetino (utrdbe Knin, Sinj, Ključ, Nečven). Kot starodavna dediščina Nelipčićev se omenja tudi utrdba Kamičac na Krki. Nekaj časa so bili med najmočnejšimi plemiči na Hrvaškem.

Prvi Nelipčić (Neliptius), Nelipac I., se v virih omenja leta 1244, ob priložnosti sklepanja miru po dvoletni vojni med Trogirom in Splitom, v kateri je Nelipac I. sodeloval na strani Trogira. Njihovi zgodovini pa je mogoče povezano slediti šele od štirinajstega stoletja, ko se začenja njihov veliki vzpon. To je bil tudi čas, ko se je rodbina cepila na dve veji: kninsko in kljuško (po utrdbi Ključ pri Drnišu). Na čelu prve veje je bil vojvoda Nelipac II., druge pa njegov brat Isan.

Kninska veja

Nelipac II.
Nelipac II. (†1344) je najprej priznaval oblast Šubič-Bribirskih banov, na katerih dvoru je vršil pomembne službe in ki so mu zagotovili vojvodski naslov. Leta 1322 pa se je pridružil hrvaškim plemičem, ki so se uprli hrvaško-dalmatinskemu banu Mladenu II. in ga skupaj  s slavonskim banom Ivanom Babonićem premagali pri Blizni. Ko je neposredno po tej zmagi ogrsko-hrvaški kralj Karel I. začel uveljavljati na Hrvaškem svojo centralistično oblast, se je temu del hrvaškega plemstva pod vodstvom Nelipca II. uprl in iz Knina pregnal kraljevo posadko. Nelipac je prevzel oblast nad Kninom, ki je postal njegova rezidenca.

Vendar to ni bilo všeč drugim močnim knezom. Proti njemu so se združili knezi Bribirski in Krški, mesto Zadar in bosanski ban Stjepan II. Kotromanić. Na Nelipčevi strani so bili knezi Kurjakovići, knez Livna Juraj Mihovilović in mesti Trogir in Šibenik. V spopadu junija 1324 so slednji zmagali in ponovno poleti 1326 proti slavonskemu banu Mikcu Mihajloviću in Stjepanu II. Kotromaniću. Nelipac je postal najmočnejši plemič v južni Hrvaški, ki je do njegove smrti ostala zunaj dosega kraljeve oblasti. Nelipac je postal leta 1327 knez Splita.

Benečani so Nelipca podpirali, dokler je nasprotoval kralju. Ko pa je leta 1336 zavzel Ostrovico, rezidenco Pavla II. Bribirskega, so se ustrašili, da bo postal premočan, podprli Pavla in dosegli, da mu je Nelipac trdnjavo vrnil. Leta 1338 je Nelipac odbil še en  napad bosanskega bana na Knin.

Ivan

Takoj po Nelipčevi smrti (1344) je mladi ogrsko-hrvaški kralj Ludvik I., ki je leta 1342 nasledil očeta, poslal vojsko pod poveljstvom slavonskega bana Nikole I. Banića nad Knin, ki ga je branila Nelipčeva vdova Vladislava (iz rodbine Kurjakovićev) z mladoletnim sinom Ivanom. Posadka mesta je bana odbila. Leta 1345 pa je prišel pred Knin s svojo vojsko Ludvik osebno in primoral Vadislavo k predaji. Nelipčićem je oprostil "dolgotrajno nezvestobo", jim odvzel mesta Knin, Počitelj, Srb, Ostrog in Unac, pustil pa jim je Sinj s cetinsko županijo, Brečevo s Kanjevačkim poljem in staro trdnjavo Kamičac ob Krki.

Dokumenti kasneje omenjajo Ivana (†1378/79) najpogosteje v povezavi z različnimi spori v Cetini in z njegovim ropanjem okolice Klisa, Splita, Trogira in Šibenika. V sporu med Ludvikom I. in Benečani je bil na strani Ludvika, ki ga je po zadrskem miru (1358) imenoval za "kneza Sane in Vrbasa". Ludvik mu je leta 1372 dal v zameno za nekatera druga mesta Novi na Neretvi in Imotski s kneštvom v delu Huma. Ivan je imel sina Ivaniša in hčer Jeleno, ki se je prvič poročila z vojvodo Hrvojo Vukčićem Hrvatićem in drugič z bosanskim kraljem Stjepanom Ostojo.

Ivaniš

Ivaniš (†1434) je igral pomembno vlogo v političnem življenju Hrvaške: večkrat je bil knez Trogira, knez Šibenika in doživljenski knez Splita. Sam se je proglasil za bana Dalmacije in Hrvaške. V sporu za ogrsko-hrvaški prestol je najprej podpiral Ladislava Neapeljskega; leta 1406 pa je sklenil zvezo s  knezom Nikolo IV. Krškim, ki ga je pridobil za stran Sigismunda Luksemburškega. Leta 1411 je objavil zaroko med svojo hčerjo Katarino in Nikolovim sinom Ivanom VI. (Anžem). Po smrti Hrvoje Vukčića Hrvatića je dobil od svoje sestre Jelene Omiš in se je kasneje v dokumentih podpisoval tudi s knezom omiškim in ramskim. Ni imel moškega potomca. Ker je slutil, da bo Sigismund po njegovi smrti posegel po posestih Nelipčićev, je posinovil zeta in potem izposloval pri kralju dovoljenje, da sme prepustiti svoji hčeri dediščino rodbine, ker se je izčrpal "braneč kraljestvo pred Turki in Benečani". A kralj ni držal besede; po Ivanuševi smrti (1434) je poslal proti Ivanu VI. bana Matka Talovca z vojsko. Ivan VI. je v boju padel (1436), Sigismund pa je dediščino Nelipčićev podelil svojim pristašem; največji del je pripadel Talovcem.

Kljuška veja

Isanova veja Nelipčićev je sprva živela v trdnjavi Ključ. Zaradi pritiska Benečanov je v prvi polovici 14. stoletja prenesla svoj sedež v Nečven.

Kneza Isana je leta 1335/36 nasledil sin Konstantin († pred 1375), ki je bil kaštelan v Skradinu in se je skupaj s stricem Nelipcem II. bojeval proti Benečanom in Bribircem.

Konstantinov sin, Nelipac III., tudi kaštelan v Skradinu, je bil zvest Sigismundov pristaš.
Leta 1388 se je povezal s Splitom, Šibenikom in knezi Ugrinići ter se skupaj z njimi boril na Sigismundovi strani proti kralju Tvrtku I. in vranskemu priorju Ivanu Paližni. V virih se zadnjič omenja leta 1396.

V 15. stoletju so Nelipčići poznani tudi v srednjeveški Slavoniji; nekateri zgodovinarji jih povezujejo s kljuškimi Nelipčići.

Outdated Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels found in Tampa Bay.
The sole intention of this article is to educate the homeowner of the potential danger of having a Federal Pacific Electric, Zinsco or Zinsco-Sylvania electrical panel.
Many homeowners are not aware of the seriousness of these panels failing and that is due in part to lack of electrical inspections performed at their homes by a qualified electrician or properly trained building inspector. Your electrical system should be inspected at least once a year to avoid future repairs that could have been prevented.
History has shown that in some cases the circuit breakers for the Federal Pacific or Zinsco electrical panels don't trip under an overload or a short circuit condition. In other cases the breakers on the bus bars got loose in turn generating an arcing condition that transfers a great amount of heat and accelerates the potential failure of the breakers, wiring and bus bars.
If the Federal Pacific or Zinsco electrical breakers don't trip under an overload condition, the insulation of the electrical wire can overheat, melting the insulation and exposing the bare hot wire to flammable materials such as wood, drywall or insulation increasing the possibility of an electrical fire.
The most important thing is to take action and simply do a quick evaluation to verify if in fact you do own a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel by looking at the labels or viewing the pictures below to find the characteristics of the breakers. If you are not sure or don't know how to identify the panel, call a professional electrician that has experience with this kind of situation to fully evaluate the electrical conditions.
A lot less then the replacement of your home and no comparison to the lives of your love ones. The price can vary depending on the size of the panel and the type of upgrade. A good measure range could be between $800 to $2,500.
We received a call from a general contractor who was working on a bedroom remodel and by accident cut the electrical wire to a receptacle with a reciprocating saw and the breaker did not trip urging the general contractor to shut the main power off. After we inspected the entire circuit, our electrician discovered that a Zinsco panel was present and from prior experience with these panels, it was obvious that the panel needed to be replaced for the owner's safety and peace of mind.
During another bathroom remodel, our electrician discovered that their panel was a Zinsco-Sylvania. After we educated the homeowner on the seriousness of the situation, our electrician proceeded to replace the panel. After our evaluation of the buss bar, we discovered burn marks on one of the breaker slots.

Drug offences and how to defend them
The Controlled Drugs and Substances Act is Canada's federal drug control statute. Passed in 1996 under Prime Minister Jean Chrétien's government, it repeals the Narcotic Control Act and Parts III and IV of the Food and Drug Act and establishes eight Schedules of controlled substances and two Classes of precursors. It provides that "The Governor in Council may, by order, amend any of Schedules I to VIII by adding to them or deleting from them any item or portion of an item, where the Governor in Council deems the amendment to be necessary in the public interest."
The Act serves as the implementing legislation for the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, the Convention on Psycho tropic Substances, and the United Nations Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psycho tropic Substances.
Schedules and precursors
1- Scheduled drugs
Canada's drug laws are complex, the schedules are the list of drugs that the offences of possession and trafficking prohibit either to have or to sell. That is depending on which scheduled drug is used the offences of possession and trafficking treat them differently for sentencing purposes.
2-Precursors
Precursors are the chemicals that are used to make certain drugs such Crystal meth or Ice as it is sometimes called and as such there may be criminal charges that will be attached mostly to the possession of these precursors.
The Schedules for illegal drugs
The list of scheduled drugs is long but to explain the offences here is the list of scheduled drugs that have criminality attached to them;
Schedule I
Opium Poppy (Papaver somniferum), its preparations, derivatives, alkaloids and salts, including:
Codeine (methyl morphine)
Coca leaves
This is just a list of the main drugs there are many more listed in the legislation.
Synthetic preparations of Cannabis.
Again this is just to name a few there are many more drugs in this list in the legislation
Schedule IV
Most barbiturates
Again there are many more drugs in this list in the legislation
Schedule V
Propylhexedrine
The schedules for the precursors
This will be the list of precursors in the legislation. The chemicals used to create drugs.
Schedule 7 (amounts that the legislation uses for conviction of certain offences)
Substance Amount 1. Cannabis resin 3 kg 2. Cannabis (marijuana) 3 kg
Substance Amount 1. Cannabis resin 1 g 2. Cannabis (marijuana) 30 g
Cannabis is now legal.
The Cannabis Act creates a strict legal framework for controlling the production, distribution, sale and possession of cannabis across Canada. The Act aims to accomplish 3 goals:
keep cannabis out of the hands of youth
keep profits out of the pockets of criminals
protect public health and safety by allowing adults access to legal cannabis
What is legal as of October 17, 2018
Subject to provincial or territorial restrictions, adults who are 18 years of age or older are legally able to:
possess up to 30 grams of legal cannabis, dried or equivalent in non-dried form in public
share up to 30 grams of legal cannabis with other adults
buy dried or fresh cannabis and cannabis oil from a provincially-licensed retailer
in provinces and territories without a regulated retail framework, individuals are able to purchase cannabis online from federally-licensed producers
grow, from licensed seed or seedlings, up to 4 cannabis plants per residence for personal use
make cannabis products, such as food and drinks, at home as long as organic solvents are not used to create concentrated products
Cannabis edible products and concentrates will be legal for sale approximately one year after the Cannabis Act came into force on October 17th, 2018.
Possession limits for cannabis products
The possession limits in the Cannabis Act are based on dried cannabis. Equivalents were developed for other cannabis products to identify what their possession limit would be.
One (1) gram of dried cannabis is equal to:
5 grams of fresh cannabis
15 grams of edible product
70 grams of liquid product
0.25 grams of concentrates (solid or liquid)
1 cannabis plant seed
This means, for example, that an adult 18 years of age or older, can legally possess 150 grams of fresh cannabis.
Cannabis for medical purposes
The current regime for medical cannabis will continue to allow access to cannabis for people who have the authorization of their healthcare provider.
Protecting youth
The Cannabis Act has several measures that help prevent youth from accessing cannabis. These include both age restrictions and restricting promotion of cannabis.
No person may sell or provide cannabis to any person under the age of 18. There are 2 criminal offences related to providing cannabis to youth, with maximum penalties of 14 years in jail:
giving or selling cannabis to youth
using a youth to commit a cannabis-related offence
Restricting promotion and enticement
The Cannabis Act helps discourage youth cannabis use by prohibiting:
products that are appealing to youth
packaging or labelling cannabis in a way that makes it appealing to youth
selling cannabis through self-service displays or vending machines
promoting cannabis, except in narrow circumstances where young people could not see the promotion
Penalties for violating these prohibitions include a fine of up to $5 million or 3 years in jail.
Protecting public health
The Act protects public health through creating strict safety and quality regulations. In addition, public education efforts are currently underway to raise awareness about safety measures and any potential health risks.
Strict regulation
Federal, provincial and territorial governments share responsibility for overseeing the cannabis regulation system.
The Federal government's responsibilities are to set:
strict requirements for producers who grow and manufacture cannabis
industry-wide rules and standards, including:
types of cannabis products available for sale
packaging and labelling requirements for products
standardized serving sizes and potency
prohibitions on the use of certain ingredients
good production practices
tracking requirements of cannabis from seed to sale to keep it out of the illegal market
restrictions on promotional activities
Provinces and territories are responsible for developing, implementing, maintaining and enforcing systems to oversee the distribution and sale of cannabis. They are also able to add their own safety measures, such as:
increasing the minimum age in their province or territory (but not lowering it)
lowering the personal possession limit in their jurisdiction
creating additional rules for growing cannabis at home, such as lowering the number of plants per residence
restricting where adults can consume cannabis, such as in public or in vehicles
Be sure to check local laws in your province.
The Government of Canada has committed close to $46 million over the next five years for cannabis public education and awareness activities. These are to inform Canadians, especially youth, of the health and safety risks of cannabis consumption.
Reducing criminal activity
Statistics Canada reports that in 2017, almost 48,000 cannabis-related drug offences were reported to police. The majority of these (80%) were possession offences. A criminal record resulting from a cannabis offence, even a minor possession charge, can have serious and lifelong implications for the person charged. In allowing the production and possession of legal cannabis for adults, the Act helps keep Canadians who consume cannabis out of the criminal justice system, reducing the burden on the courts.
Criminal penalties
Cannabis offences target those acting outside of the legal framework, such as organized crime. Penalties are set in proportion to the seriousness of the offence. Sanctions range from warnings and tickets for minor offences to criminal prosecution and imprisonment for more serious offences. Some offences specifically target people who make cannabis available to youth.
Offence Penalties
Possession over the limit
tickets for small amounts
up to 5 years in jail
Illegal distribution or sale
up to 14 years in jail
Producing cannabis beyond personal cultivation limits or with combustible solvents
Taking cannabis across Canada's borders
Giving or selling cannabis to a person under 18
Further penalties related to cannabis-impaired driving are also included in Canada's impaired driving legislation, along with impairment rules for other drugs such as:
psilocybin (magic mushrooms)
THE CRIMINAL OFFENCES
The offence of Possession
These offences can be treated as either indictable or summary which means a dual procedure offence. The legislation contemplate the two types of sentencing.
f treated as an indictable offence, the penalty is:
1- Schedule I: Maximum 7 years imprisonment
2- Schedule II: Maximum 5 years imprisonment
3- Schedule III: (Requires a prescription or license to legally possess.) Maximum 3 years imprisonment
4- Schedule IV: It is not an offence to possess a Schedule IV substance for personal use; however, Subsection (2) of Section (4) of the CDSA states that "no person shall seek or obtain a substance or authorization from a practitioner to obtain a substance in schedules I through IV." unless the person discloses to the practitioner particulars relating to the acquisition by the person of every substance in those Schedules, and of every authorization to obtain such substances, from any other practitioner within the preceding thirty days. Subsection (7) then states that it is an indictable offence to contravene subsection (2). Therefore, it is an indictable offence to attempt to acquire a Schedule IV substance but not an offence for possession. Section 5 provides that possession for the purpose of trafficking of a Schedule IV substance is an offence.
If treated as a summary conviction offence, the penalty is:
Maximum $1000 fine for first offence and/or maximum 6 months imprisonment.
Maximum $2000 fine for subsequent offence and/or maximum 1 year imprisonment.
Note: For amounts not exceeding those set in Schedule VIII, maximum fine of $1000 and/or maximum 6 months imprisonment is the only punishment.
The offence of trafficking
Trafficking/Possession for the Purpose of
If tried as an indictable offence, the defendant is liable to:
Schedule I or Schedule II (exceeding amounts set in Schedule VII): Maximum life imprisonment
Mandatory minimum 1 year jail sentence for trafficking a Schedule I drug under 1 kg, 2 years if amount exceeds 2 kg
Schedule II (not exceeding amounts set in Schedule VII): Maximum 5 years imprisonment
Schedule III: Maximum 10 years imprisonment
Schedule IV: Maximum 3 years imprisonment
Or, if tried as a summary conviction, the defendant is liable to:
Schedule III: Maximum 18 months imprisonment
Schedule IV: Maximum 1 year imprisonment
Exportation/Possession for the Purpose of
Schedule I or Schedule II: Maximum life imprisonment
Schedule III or Schedule IV: Maximum 10 years imprisonment
Schedule V or Schedule VI: Maximum 3 years imprisonment
Schedule III or Schedule IV: Maximum 18 months imprisonment
Schedule V or Schedule VI: Maximum 1 year imprisonment
Production Offences
Schedule I or Schedule II (excluding cannabis): Maximum life imprisonment
Cannabis: Maximum 7 years imprisonment
The final legislation sees changes made to four areas of the CDSA, outlining mandatory minimum sentences for offences relating to the trafficking and production of various controlled substances. Mandatory minimum sentencing does not apply to simple possession and trafficking in smaller amounts.

Do you fully understand your rights as a resident of a nursing home? If your loved one is currently living in a nursing home but is not mentally able to manage or function at full capacity, it is your duty to ensure they are receiving the proper care they deserve.
Moving your loved one into a nursing home facility most often isn't an easy decision to make in the first place. There comes a time when they require more constant care but your busy life schedule, whatever it may be, doesn't allow you to personally fill the role of caretaker.
But what happens when a nursing home facility violates your trust? When caretakers fail repeatedly at their duties leaving your loved one in life threatening danger, what do you do? A nursing home neglect attorney in Minnesota can give you the answers you are seeking and the justice you and your loved one deserve. It is never acceptable when abuse or neglect occurs under any circumstance. The nursing home facilities know the responsibilities they signed up for and all too often fall short.
When nursing home facilities violate your trust and your loved one has suffered injuries or even passed away due to their neglect or abuse, seek legal action immediately. Hold those responsible accountable for their actions or lack thereof. Honor your loved ones dignity by getting the justice they deserve. Fight back and help change the ever growing numbers of neglect and abuse in nursing homes.

Country music might have put Nashville on the map, but fashion may be the city's next big export.
Or at least that's what the Nashville Fashion Alliance hopes. The trade group released a report Wednesday outlining the ways in which Nashville is uniquely positioned to foster start-up and emerging brands' growth.
The NFA, which is comprised of 368 members about of third of which are fashion brands, worked with Gherzi Textil Organisation, an international consulting firm specializing in the textile, garment and fashion industries, on the research and resulting action plan.
The findings indicate Nashville has the largest per capita concentration of independent fashion companies outside of New York and Los Angeles. Today, the fashion industry contributes $5.9 billion to the city directly and indirectly and employs more than 16,200 people. Those numbers could reach $9.5 billion and 25,000 people by 2025 with the right investment.
The biggest players in the region are Genesco, which produces branded footwear, VF Imagewear, a subsidiary of VF Corporation, which offers workwear brands, as well as distribution centers for Gap, UnderArmour, Macy's and Warby Parker.
The report outlines several attributes that make Nashville an attractive headquarters for apparel-related businesses. Among them is the city's position as fourth in the nation for job growth. The population is also growing at almost double the national average and boasts a high concentration of creatives. And the area is competitive in terms of design and retail wages, which are significantly lower than the national average.
Nashville's central location puts it within a day's drive of major markets that represent 70 percent of the national purchasing power.
To achieve the NFA's growth trajectory, the study found the city needs to take a number of steps. First, establish a small-batch production space where small apparel and accessories brands can create and experiment. Next, provide mentors and training courses to help fledgling entrepreneurs learn about accounting, marketing and retail. The group also needs to establish collective bargaining agreements to help link designers to the raw materials and specialized subcontractors they need. The NFA members will also need co-working spaces and legal and accounting services. And finally, as companies emerge from the startup phase, the NFA must be able to support the growing businesses by establishing an accelerator or helping to line up key investors.


Muslim Democrats Re-Launch Gathering! Join us Saturday, June 4, 2016 in Oak Brook, IL. Find the invite and event information below.
A few months back, pondering the ghastly parlor game of choosing between President Donald Trump and President Ted Cruz, I opted — reluctantly, disbelievingly — for Trump, as the lesser of two dangers.
Survey shows that more older Muslim voters back Clinton, while younger Muslims support Bernie Sanders.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation's largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today released the results of a six-state "Super Tuesday" poll of almost 2000 Muslim voters indicating that almost half of those voters (46 percent) support Hillary Clinton, followed by Bernie Sanders at 25 percent and 11 percent support for Donald Trump.

Ready for the Cut? Waterloo Region continues sustainability
by Harleen Kaur Dhilonw
While the provincial government tries to set us back to the 20th century, Waterloo Region continues its trudge into the future. Despite provincial cuts on renewable energy, Waterloo Region will continue to work towards sustainability.
The Energy Management Plan outlined in February is still in effect as the Region adapts to the new conditions set by Doug Ford's government.
Region of Waterloo committed $20,000 to the implementation of the Communuity Energy Investment Strategy (CEIS) for 2018-2019. In addition, $25 000 were offered for 2020-2022, but this sum is subject to reconfirmation. A manager has also been hired for three years to oversee the project.
This is a combined effort of the Region, as well as six local municipalities and the regional energy utilities. The four goals of the strategy are: to improve energy usage in buildings, to transition to low-carbon transportation, enhance local energy generation, and support innovative energy investments.
In July of this year, Doug Ford's Progressive Conservatives cancelled 758 Green Energy Project contracts, with Greg Rickford, Minister of Energy, Mines, and Northern Development claiming they were, "unnecessary and wasteful."
All of the contracts cancelled had not reached development milestones. By cancelling projects in the early stage, the government hopes to maximize savings, $790 million in savings, to be exact. Both supporters and opponents of this decision have expressed doubt at this claim.
Fraser Institute's Senior Policy Analyst Ashley Stedman and Associate Director of Nature Studies Elmira Aliakbari stated in an article that, "cancelling the contracts […] will help prevent future price increases [but] it likely won't reduce electricity prices anytime soon."
The reason being since all of the projects were in early stages, their cancellation won't change much.
Robert Gibson, Professor in the Environment Faculty at UW and Sustainability Researcher thought that there will be no future gains at all.
"[It] is short sighted, as is the broader suite of decisions to dismantle efforts to mitigate climate change. That agenda plays the politics of immediate advantage to the detriment of future interests, including [future generations]," he said.
It may seem as if years worth of work in environmental sustainability is being undone, but in an article on CBC News, Kate Bueckert quoted Brian May, MP in Cambridge.
"It's going to be difficult for [the provincial government], to kind of go backwards and not follow us forward," he said.
The Region of Waterloo, and other regions will continue to move forward to a more sustainable society.

Castellano, Jacobson earn year-end NYRA titles
Submitted by John Conte on Thursday, January 2, 2014 at 12:00 AM
Javier Castellano earned his first year-end riding title and David Jacobson stood alone atop the trainer standings on The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) circuit in 2013.
Castellano, 36, won 239 races in 2013 at Aqueduct Racetrack, Belmont Park, and Saratoga Race Course, including Grade 1 scores aboard Princess of Sylmar in the TVG Coaching Club American Oaks, Alabama, and Beldame Invitational. In addition, he won three graded stakes on November 30 at Aqueduct: the Grade 2 Remsen with Honor Code, the Grade 2 Demoiselle with Stopchargingmaria, and the Grade 3 Comely with Wedding Toast. Along the way, he garnered the Belmont spring/summer, Saratoga, Belmont fall, and Aqueduct fall meet titles.
In 2013, Castellano's mounts earned $26.3 million, breaking the previous record of $25.6 million set in 2012 by Ramon Dominguez.
Irad Ortiz, Jr. was second with 222 wins, with his brother, Jose Ortiz, finishing third with 211 wins.
Jacobson's 164 wins established a record for victories by a trainer in a single year, previously held by Gary Contessa, who won 159 races in 2007. Jacobson, 59, also captured the Aqueduct spring, Belmont spring/summer, and Aqueduct fall meet titles. In August, Jacobson won his first Grade 1 flat race when he sent out Strapping Groom to an upset victory in the Forego at Saratoga.
In 2012, Jacobson shared the year-end title with Rick Dutrow, Jr. with 110 wins apiece.
Second-place trainer Todd Pletcher won 117 races. Chad Brown was third with 101 wins.
Drawing Away Stable, one of Jacobson's clients, was the leading owner with 89 wins, well ahead of runner-up Michael Dubb (49) and third-place finisher Darley Stable (45).

Brazil extends Science Without Borders with 100,000 new scholarships
Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff has announced a major extension of Brazil's ambitious Science Without Borders programme (Ciência sem Fronteiras, or CsF – also known as the Brazil Scientific Mobility Undergraduate Program). First launched in 2011, CsF is on track to provide 100,000 scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students over three years. The new phase announced last week by President Rousseff will begin in 2015, with the goal of supporting a further 100,000 scholarships for study abroad for Brazilian university students.
CsF is a large-scale scholarship programme with the goal to "promote the consolidation and expansion of science, technology and innovation in Brazil by means of international exchange and mobility." The programme is a joint effort of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science and Technology. The bulk of its 3 billion reais (US$1.36 billion) phase one budget has been supported by public funds, with roughly a quarter contributed by the private sector.
Host institutions are found in 43 countries, including Australia, China, India, Japan, New Zealand, Russia, South Korea, and Spain. However, the following countries have received the largest share of CsF students to date:
United States (26,300);
United Kingdom (9,500);
Canada (7,000);
France (6,400);
Germany (5,900).
In addition to providing for Brazilian students to study abroad, the programme also aims, through its Special Visiting Researcher component, to attract senior researchers "to perform joint projects with research groups in Brazil and to work in the country for up to three months every year during two to three years."
"Science without Borders is a programme created to generate an innovation policy in Brazil," the President said. "We have already granted 83,200 scholarships and will reach the goal of 101,000 by September this year. Therefore, we designed this new phase by offering scholarships to all Brazilian students who can qualify after a language proficiency process."
As has been the case in the first phase from 2011-2014, the programme will remain focused on STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths) from 2015 on. Eligible fields range from Engineering and Physical Sciences to Health Sciences, Computing Science, Aerospace, Energy, Mining, Agriculture, and Biotechnology.
The Minister of Education, José Henrique Paim, who was also at the extension announcement, highlighted the programme's importance in internationalising Brazilian higher education. He added, "Since its implementation, 52% [of CsF scholarships] were awarded for maths, science, agricultural and engineering fields."
The scholarships provide for up to 12 months of study abroad for undergraduates, including an internship component, and the students are expected to return to Brazil to complete their degrees. "These scholarships have an important role for undergraduate students," explained President Rousseff. "They return to Brazil with new perspectives and a very significant experience of the teacher-student relationship."
Additional details on post-2014 programme implementation are still to come. For the moment, President Rousseff indicated that the new phase will prioritise students who have won awards in national Brazilian math, physics and chemistry competitions. There will be an added focus on graduate students, in particular CsF alumni seeking graduate scholarships. There is also increased interest in Asia, specifically Korea, China and Japan and a desire to grow the numbers there.
A national plan for innovation
CsF is part of a broader pattern of investments in STEM innovation in Brazil. On the same day as the extension of CsF was announced, President Rousseff also signed a decree to establish the National Programme of Knowledge Platforms (Programa Nacional de Plataformas do Conhecimento, or PNPC).
The Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation, Clelio Campolina Diniz, attended the signing ceremony and framed the programme's goals: "In a decade, up to 20 public-private arrangements will be known as platforms to generate knowledge, products and processes with a high impact on [science and technology innovation] and consequently, on the lives of people and the country."
To formulate the PNPC, the federal government is taking a global perspective: "We try to follow the most consistent policies, such as technological megaprojects in China, European technology platforms, innovation hubs, the intensity of the race to take on a global leadership position, to face Asian competition, and the new scientific policy of the United States which is aimed at safeguarding the American economy."
And a national education plan beginning in the K-12 sector
The CsF and PNPC announcements occurred last month against the backdrop of much larger and more comprehensive investments in strengthening and expanding Brazil's education system. On 3 June 2014, the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies approved a National Education Plan (Plano Nacional de Educação, or PNE). In development for nearly four years, the plan targets 20 priority areas and will significantly increase Brazil's investment in education going forward.
The news agency Agência Brasil reports that the PNE establishes a minimum target investment of 7% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by 2019 and 10% of GDP by 2024 – this compares to current spending equivalent to 6.4% of GDP, according to the Ministry of Education.
According to the Plan, in the next ten years 20 goals will have to be met, including universal access to education for children from ages four till nine, eradicating illiteracy, increasing the enrolment rate in secondary education to 85% and higher education to 33% of the total population, greater integration and enrolment in vocational studies, opening up more spaces in higher education, increasing postgraduate enrolment, and improving teacher training.
The PNE is due to be signed by President Rousseff, after which states and municipalities will have a year to develop their own education plans based on the national plan.

The majority of high school sports teams starts their season with goals. Many teams aim to win their respective league title, while others set their goals higher and vie for a state tournament appearance.
Although many coaches preach the importance of navigating their season with a "one game at a time" approach, local Lower Cape teams are beginning to see where they stand among their peers that are also working toward qualifying for the postseason.
The Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association has started posting its weekly MIAA Power Rankings that will be used to determine state tournament seedings. The top 32 in each power ranking automatically qualify for the state tournament, while teams ranked 33 or lower with a .500 record or better will qualify for a play-in game.
The Lower Cape is well represented in the Jan. 20 power rankings, with the Nauset boys hockey team (8-2) garnering the highest local ranking at No. 3 in the Division 3 boys hockey rankings.
The Cape Cod Furies, a girls co-op team open to girls from Nauset, Monomoy and Cape Cod Tech, ranked 19th in the Division 1 girls hockey rankings with a 6-5-1 record.
The Nauset boys basketball team (4-5) is ranked 55th in Division 2, while the girls team (4-7) is 57th in the Division 2 girls rankings.
Ranked 26th in Division 4, the Monomoy's girls basketball team (6-5) has the highest ranking among Monomoy teams, with the boys basketball (4-6) ranking 35th in Division 4 and the Mashpee-Monomoy Monarchs boys hockey co-op team (1-7-1) at 37th in Division 4.
At Cape Tech, the co-op boys hockey team comprised of boys from Dennis-Yarmouth, Cape Tech and Cape Cod Academy leads the way with an 8-3-1 record and a No. 7 placement in the Division 4 rankings.
Tech's boys basketball team (8-1) is 46th in Division 5, while the girls (5-3) are 42nd in the same division.
Postseason bracket information for indoor track and field, wrestling and swimming and diving will be made available in the near future. Visit MIAA.net and click on the "Tournament Central" tab to view the power rankings, which are released each Friday, and more state tournament information.

Where's Money?
The Wait Is Nearly Over

The Iron People Of Belarus
Andrei Sannikov: Don't provide for Belarusian dictatorship
Both Russia and Europe should look in the true face of Lukashenka's regime.
Andrei Sannikov, former presidential candidate and coordinator of the civil campaign European Belarus said about it in an interview to Deutsche Welle.
According to Sannikov, the tough sanctions of the EU don't affect the Belarusian people. They are dangerous for the dictatorship that projects prison repressions on the entire society.
Sannikov was arrested on the night of December 20, 2010, right after the mass protest rally against the fake elections result was suppressed in Minsk. In May 2011 the court found Sannikov guilty of organizing mass disorders and convicted him to a five-year term in a reformatory with a restricted regime. The human rights organization Amnesty International proclaimed Andrei Sannikov a prisoner of consciousness.
In April 2012 Sannikov was released on parole after a decree of president Aliaksandar Lukashenka. In September 2012 he was granted the status of refugee in the UK. His wife, journalist Iryna Khalip, also accused of organizing mass disorders, remains in Minsk under home arrest.
- You are watching the situation in Belarus from a distance. How does it look like?
- In Belarus, the economic and political situations are insane. Even officials from the government realize how badly the country needs reforms. And yet, everything what is being done today leads nowhere.
Fear stands behind the powers' unwise actions because they don't have the people's support anymore. However, the regime still hopes to get help from Russia and from the West, by selling petrol products. The dictatorship has a very primitive plan: it needs money, not economy that can earn it. The loans are used to feed the repression machine, and nothing is left for the production.
- But Moscow offers Minsk financial support within the Common economic space and the future Eurasian union. Should Belarus move towards deeper Eurasian integration?
- I don't know what Eurasia is, what rules it has, what political mechanisms function there. I know what the European Union is, I understand its principles, and I advocate for Belarus' integration to Europe which at the same time is beneficial for Russia.
Right now I can see that the relations between Moscow and Minsk are built on the same insane principle. Russia wants to control the Belarusian economy, while the Belarusian powers treat it only as a game, a search for money. But this integration discourse and refusal to cooperate with the West gives the regime the funds. I am convinced however that the Kremlin realizes that Lukashenka is not a suitable business partner.
- Some Western experts say that a multipolar world is already a reality and that no boosting methods, such as sanctions, are needed. What do you think?
- It merely shows that Aliaksandar Lukashenka has a strong lobby in the West. Dictatorships can be useful even for civilized countries, in case businesses try to make quick money not in a most transparent way. The Belarusian powers give them such an opportunity, and the lobbyists work in this direction. It is especially obvious in Lithuania, Latvia and Poland.
But where are these experts? They are in comfortable democratic states where their rights are protected, where nothing threatens them, where they will not go to prison for their ideas. But they should try living in Belarus as regular citizens, spending some time in prison, where I saw innocent people being humiliated and treated in a way that even criminals don't deserve.
The Belarusian regime projects prison experience on the entire society. The punishment system is implemented everywhere; today you don't have to be an oppositionist to get to prison, it is enough to upload photos online, to express an opinion in an Internet blog.
- The Belarusian opposition is trying to decide how to select one candidate for the presidential elections 2015. What could bring the Belarusian opposition together?
- Free elections held under international scrutiny could improve the situation in the country. But let's ask ourselves if it is possible. Today the right thing to do would be to change the logics of the actions and to take for a fact that there is no election process in the country. And that means that the opposition's attempts to find common denominator for the forces of different social weight and potential will be ineffective.
The high level of the society's solidarity that was demonstrated despite the violent repressions is a lesson that the opposition should have learnt from the year 2010. Today it is crucial to unite around solidarity with the political prisoners, it is crucial to help their families. It is the most valuable thing to preserve. We shouldn't start playing the game of one candidate – it will only put the opposition under even harder control from the special services.
- How can the European Union help the democratic community in Belarus?
- First of all, the EU should treat the dictatorship in a proper way. On the one hand, the regime is labeled "Europe's last dictatorship"; on the other hand, the Europeans try to negotiate with this last dictator in a civilized manner. But these are two mutually exclusive things.
I disagree with the opinions expressed in the West and by a part of the opposition, that large-scale sanctions against the regime can push Belarus closer to Russia. How can we discuss the effects of something we have not yet tested? Meanwhile, the Belarusian export gets the biggest part of its profits from the European Union, which Minsk proudly reports.
Stop whining that the tough measures hurt the Belarusian people. Nothing hurts more than the dictatorship. The situation is abnormal not only for the Belarusians; it is dangerous for the entire democratic world. Dictators from different spheres - illegal trade of weapon, drugs or human organs, human trafficking - get along very quickly. This undermines the international security, everyone's big concern. In other words, Europe should stop providing for the regime, otherwise it will strengthen the axis of evil.
