This is the No 1 website in Nigeria that focuses on mainly drinks. You can order online and have it delivered to your doorstep hassle free. You can also visit their Offline locations scattered all around lagos. The minimum purchase is N5,000. Orders over NGN100,000 are delivered anywhere on the island or the mainland lagos. Orders under NGN100,000 are charged a one time fee of NGN1000. Deliveries must include Wine,champagne or spirits.
Im sure by now we are all familiar with Konga.com. This website is more like a market place where people can buy and sell items.There are alot of drink vendors listed on this website,and i would advice you scroll through and spend time accessing your options to get the best and affordable deal.
This is another E commerce website who deal mainly in goods you can buy in a supermarket like the name implies.They have a lot of selections and also offer delivery. Visit this site if you would like other items with your drink.
This is a relatively new website and hasn't been in the industry as much as the other players.The great thing about this website is the ease at which items can be purchased. Their website is really user friendly and they also have a wide selection of drinks. They Use Zippy logistics as their primary delivery agent so you can be sure to get your drink on time.
Everyone that is familiar with lagos would know Akpongbon, its one of the major entries into lagos Island through Eko Bridge. They sell a lot of drinks at discount prices and i feel this is because of its closeness to Apapa port which make it easier for them to reduce their prices, the only problem is the High quantity of fake and adulterated drinks sold at this location. According to popular reviews,you have to have a very keen eye for drinks if you want to buy here to make sure you dont loose your money buying Substandard products.
Standing as one of the biggest malls in Nigeria with over 20 locations nationwide (7 or more in lagos state alone,this is one of the safest and affordable places to buy drinks for your event. You get to shop in a serene environment and can even request for your drink to be carried to your car for you(although you may have to tip the trolley guys & something & for their effort). They have a large selection of drinks for your event but sadly,they dont provide delivery services which would be inconvenient if you are buying a lot of drinks.
So there you are,those are the locations I recommend when looking to get drinks in lagos state. Do you have any other suggestions of places you have bought drinks from before now? What was your experience ? Your Comment would be really appreciated.


What is the differenc betweem the greetings?
they are just spelled incorrectly, or maybe its better to say: improperly represented, with these two transliterations, and Allaah knows best.
the red letters may be added for an attempt at a closer representation of the arabic. some people may write a symbol over the second a in salam to indicate that it is lengthened.
ash-Shaykh Salih aal-ash Shaykh in the Audio Tape 'Wasaaya Abu ad-Dardaa' quotes one of the Sahaabah writing a letter which starts with Salaamun 'alaikum ie., with Tankeer & ends it wirh Assalaamu 'alaikum ie., with Ta'reef.
The Shaykhs goes on to explain this that it is way when writing letters but not when communicating with one another orally.

Cate Blanchett, Jury President of the Festival de Cannes 2018
Posted by: admin Tags: Cannes, Cannes 2018, Cannes Film Festival 2018, Cate Blanchett Posted date: February 20, 2018 | No comment
Australian actress Cate Blanchett is to be President of the Jury of the Festival de Cannes, the 71st edition of which will be taking place in May 2018. She follows Pedro Almodóvar, Jury President of the 70th edition, whose jury awarded the Palme d'Or to The Square by Swedish director Ruben Östlund.
"I have been to Cannes in many guises over the years; as an actress, producer, in the marketplace, the Gala-sphere and in competition," she declared, "but never solely for the sheer pleasure of watching the cornucopia of films this great festival harbors."
Pierre Lescure, Festival de Cannes President and Thierry Frémaux, General Delegate, said: "We are delighted to welcome such a rare and unique artist whose talent and convictions enrich both screen and stage. Our conversations from this autumn tell us she will be a committed President, a passionate woman and a big-hearted spectator."
"I am humbled by the privilege and responsibility of presiding over this year's jury," Cate Blanchett continued. "This festival plays a pivotal role in bringing the world together to celebrate story; that strange and vital endeavor that all peoples share, understand and crave."
Cate Blanchett is one of those actors for whom performing is a permanent delight, whatever the role she takes to stage or screen. In film, always under the eye of great directors, she switches between independent ventures and lavish productions, and appears in the credits of all notable contemporary English-language cinema: The Lord of the Rings trilogy by Peter Jackson, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button by David Fincher, Babel by Alejandro González Iñárritu, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou by Wes Anderson, The Good German by Steven Soderbergh, Coffee and Cigarettes by Jim Jarmusch. To this non-exhaustive list, we must add Steven Spielberg, Terrence Malick, Sally Potter, Ridley Scott, Woody Allen and Todd Haynes.
When she is not on screen, Blanchett's commitment to the theatre all over the world is palpable. Alongside her producing partner Andrew Upton, she was CEO and co-Artistic Director of the Sydney Theatre Company from 2008 to 2013 and Blanchett has won awards for her work on stage in New York, Washington, London, Paris (she performed in Jean Genêt's The Maids alongside Isabelle Huppert, Jury President in 2009) and also in Sydney, of course, where she soared in Liv Ullman's production of A Streetcar Named Desire. In 2012, Blanchett was awarded the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Minister for Culture and also the Centenary Medal for Service to Australian Society, both for her significant contribution to the arts. In 2015, she was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts before she was made a Companion in the Order of Australia in 2017. Back on the screen, Blanchett won the 2014 Oscar for best actress for her performance in Blue Jasmine by Woody Allen. This award came in addition to the Oscar she was awarded in 2004 for best supporting actress in The Aviator by Martin Scorsese in which she played an unforgettable Katharine Hepburn – it is the first time that an actress has won an Oscar for playing another actress… who also won an Oscar.
Cate Blanchett was also nominated for her performance in Carol by Todd Haynes, a film that she co-produced and which was presented in competition at Cannes in 2015. And not forgetting that in 2008 she also received two Oscar nominations, best actress for Elizabeth the Golden Age by Shekhar Kapur (with whom she collaborated 10 years earlier in Elizabeth) and best supporting actress for I'm Not There by Todd Haynes (for which she won the best actress prize at the Mostra in Venice), making her one of only five actors in the history of the Academy to have been nominated for both categories in the same year.
Recently, Cate Blanchett was seen in the Marvel super-production Thor: Ragnarok and will be appearing in Ocean's 8, the first chapter in an entirely female saga, produced by Warner and due to be released after Cannes, late spring 2018. In the same year, she will appear in the highly-anticipated film adaptation of Maria Semple's Where'd You Go Bernadette, directed by Richard Linklater. She can then be seen in The House with a Clock in its Walls, directed by Eli Roth.
Cate Blanchett is also a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, where she focuses on issues of statelessness for refugees around the world.

Onlookers getting a look at this year's Concours 'Best of Show', the 1937 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Touring Berlinetta.
The annual tradition continued once again this year on the 18th fairway of the famed Pebble Beach golf course as the rolling artworks of years past came to compete in one of the most extravagant automotive events on the planet. The 69th annual Concours d'Elegance was filled with some absolute showstoppers including the UFO-like 1970 Ferrari 512 S Modulo Pininfarina Coupe and this year's best in show, the 1937 Alfa Romeo 8C Touring Berlinetta.
The $48 million dollar 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO.
The auctions during Monterey Car Week also brought out some of the world's rarest cars and the record for most expensive car ever sold at auction went to a 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO that sold for a whopping $48 million dollars at the RM Sotheby's sale. A 1963 Aston Martin DP215 Grand Touring Competition Prototype at the same sale sold for $21 million dollars and at Gooding another record was broken with the 1935 Duesenberg SSJ, which became the world's most expensive American car sold at auction with a price tag of $21 million dollars.
Some of our favorite new cars from one of the biggest automotive events of the year.


In searching for an inspiration quilt from the Civil War years, I was struck by the use of mostly subdued madder textiles in the quilt made by Celia Corwin of Orange County, NY, between 1860 and 1865, now in the collection of the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. Celia's use of fabrics and layout differs greatly from another Economy block pieced quilt that I greatly admire, made in New Jersey between 1840 and 1850, housed in the collection of the Burlington County (NJ) Historical Society. The Burlington quilt is composed of a wide variety of bright dress prints (particularly those colored with Prussian blue) popular at the time of its making. The contrasting palettes of the two quilts mirror the change in taste for dress goods from the mid-1840s to the late 1850s in the United States.
Celia's "Economy" blocks are a simplification of a true Economy block, eliminating the outer enclosing squares, in effect becoming Squares-Within-Squares. She has then set them in groups of four separated by a cross of the same fabric. In turn, each group of four is separated from one another by a polka-dot sashing, set in six rows of five block sets. Four blocks of matching fabric are carefully placed in the corners, while the rest of the blocks are randomly placed. The Burlington quilt's true Economy blocks are set on point in thirteen rows of thirteen blocks side-by-side alternating with twelve rows of twelve plain muslin blocks set on point, giving the quilt a checkerboard effect.
While I was able to retain the spirit of the original in most of my fabric selections, I was unable to find or reproduce an appropriate pentagraph outlined polka-dot print in the madder palette for the sashings (such fabrics were produced around 1855). I found this quite frustrating, because I own a c. 1855 quilt with the exact fabric in its sashings.
I chose to replicate Celia's block design and layout, but adapted it for paper-piecing by machine instead of hand-piecing. Celia added a good deal of hand quilting by using parallel lines in the vertical sashings and concentric diamonds where the squares spill into the horizontal and outer sashings. I greatly simplified the quilting and instead accomplished it by machine. Would Celia have machine-quilted if given the opportunity? Or, perhaps, owning a sewing machine, did she make the conscious decision to use hand techniques only?

Buffalo Fans Go Wild on Chippewa Street Over Bills Win [Video]

Update: Buffalo Bills to Take on Baltimore Ravens on Saturday
According to WIVB, the Bills will play the Ravens on Saturday night in Orchard Park. As WIVB puts it, this game will be on fire,
It's a matchup of two of the hottest teams in the NFL right now. The Ravens have won six straight games after a 6-5 start to the season. Meanwhile the Bills have won seven in a row. They are a Hail Mary pass away from winning 11 straight coming into this game.
Since tickets to the Buffalo Bills home playoff game were limited, fans headed down to Chippewa Street to watch the game. An aerial camera caught the moment when the Bills won the game. You can see fans, who packed out the street, went wild.
The Bills beat the colts by a close margin, 27 to 24. Bills fans were at the edge of the seats, hoping that the Colts wouldn't catch up to team. As DJ Ed Nice wrote, in his story about the Bills' win,
Buffalo's first playoff win this century was a nailbiter all the way until the final seconds. The best part of this game is that the Bills were able to grab this win with fans in the stadium. This was the first game fans have been able to attend in Buffalo, with just under 7,000 being allowed under New York State's COVID guidelines.
The Bills Mafia is getting ready for what's next. The excitement around the team's success is energizing not only fans, but really, the entire City of Buffalo (and the surrounding areas). The next game will be in about a week, according to WKBW,
The Bills will meet one of three teams for their next playoff game either Saturday the 16th or Sunday the 17th. The Bills will either play the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Tennessee Titans, or the Baltimore Ravens in the divisional round of the AFC Playoffs.
Whatever happens, this season has been amazing for Buffalo Bills fans! Make sure you download the free WBLK app for Android or iPhone and turn on your notifications so we can keep you updated on all things Buffalo Bills.
Buffalo Bills Players' Private Chef Shares Their Favorite Meals [Interview]
Speaking of the Bills, on Friday, I had a chance to talk with Chef Darian Bryan, who is the personal chef of Stefon Diggs of the Buffalo Bills and provides meal prep for other Bills Players. We talked about what the players' favorite meals are, his cook book, and his company, The Plating Society in-home dining experience. It was interesting to hear what some of the players' favorite meals are and what they eat to get ready for their games.

Home Sport Look: The Denver Broncos Star has a Message for Executives
Look: The Denver Broncos Star has a Message for Executives
The Denver Broncos know how much they've struggled against the Kansas City Chiefs for the last several years.
Denver has lost its last 13 games to Kansas City with the last win coming in 2015 when Peyton Manning was the quarterback.
Since then, the Broncos have started 11 different quarterbacks, while the Chiefs have had Patrick Mahomes starting since 2018.
The Broncos are now on the upswing, especially with Russell Wilson now at quarterback. They're ready to finally take down the Chiefs, according to star pass rusher Bradley Chubb.
It's a revenge tour all year long," Chubb said (first transcribed by ProFootballTalk). "When you keep coming up short against a team, you get animosity towards them."
These two games will be a must-watch this season, especially since Wilson will be going up against Mahomes both times.
We'll have to see if Chubb and the team can get that revenge when the time comes.

Kai is 59 years old. He established a life-long connection to Frederick County as a young boy, visiting his grandparents' old farm in the Catoctin Mountains. Kai and his family moved to Frederick twenty-two years ago, and now live in northern Frederick County. In many ways Kai has been engaged in the civic life of Frederick County since moving here to stay in 1995. In 2006, he was elected to the Frederick County Board of County Commissioners, where he served through 2010.
Kai and his wife, Kirsten, celebrated their 37th wedding anniversary in August (2017). They have two sons, Tor, who is 26 and attended Carleton College in Minnesota, and Leif, who is 21 and in his junior year at the University of Maryland. Both graduated from Governor Thomas Johnson High School in Frederick.
Kai left the region for a while, attending college in a small Minnesota town set amid endless farms, then living in Minnesota and California for a number of years before moving to Frederick in 1995. Since then, he has been actively involved in our community in many ways, including a four year term as one of five members of the Frederick County Board of County Commissioners.
Beginning in autumn of 2003, until he announced his candidacy for the Board of County Commissioners, Kai wrote a bi-weekly column for the Frederick County Gazette. Before that, he wrote a bi-weekly column for the Frederick News-Post for a year. You can read any or all of Kai's columns here.
In 2002, Kai was appointed by the Board of County Commissioners to the Citizens Zoning Review Committee, which met every other week for a year and a half to review the current Zoning Ordinance, the proposed "Public Hearing Draft Zoning Ordinance" (January 2002), and any recommendations presented during previous Zoning Ordinance update efforts, and to assess the documents, correspondence, testimony, etc., and provide the Board of Frederick County Commissioners with recommendations as to amendments, revisions or the re-writing of specific sections of the ordinance.
For almost eight years, beginning in 2003, Kai was a member of the Frederick County Parks and Recreation Commission, which is composed of 8 members appointed by the Board of County Commissioners and one county commissioner who serves as a liaison. For nearly four years he served as a citizen appointed to the committee, then served as the liaison from the BOCC for four more.
Kai also served as co-chair of the Western Maryland Committee of Reality Check Plus (stepping down when he announced his candidacy for county commissioner). Reality Check Plus was a series of growth visioning exercises that were held in four different regions of Maryland in the spring and summer of 2006. Business, civic and elected leaders from throughout Maryland participated in Reality Check exercises, which were designed to help the state make smart choices about where and how to accommodate the new residents and jobs expected to come to Maryland over the next 25 years.
Kai spent a lot of time coaching youth soccer and basketball in Frederick County (fifteen years). He is a serious amateur photographer, whose images of Frederick County have been exhibited in various venues in the county, and who has instructed a few one-day Nature Photography classes through the extension programs at Frederick Community College. You can see some of his images on his Kai Hagen Photography page on Facebook.
Information about the four years Kai served as a Frederick County Commissioner is found below.
If you have questions about anything below, feel free to contact Kai at kai@catoctinmountain.com or kai.hagen@envisionfrederickcounty.org.
The following is a list of some of the highlights and a selection of other items from the four years Kai served as a county commissioner. The information provides a good sense of his concerns and priorities, as a commissioner and/or as the Director of Envision Frederick County.
Support for the Ethics Ordinance.
Support for the Lobbying Reform improvements.
Responsibly balanced budgets during challenging times, with NO TAX INCREASE (was one of three commissioners that committed an extra hundred hours or so during the FY2011 budget process to meet with Division Directors, Department Heads and others, to thoroughly review budgets, program by program, as part of our effort to make significant reductions in a careful manner).
Support for the Frederick County Office of Economic Development, including the Small Business Development Center, the Fast Track Program (which is an economic development tool used to expedite projects through the development process, while adhering to all established standards); the award-winning Business and Employment Center; the Agricultural Business Council (on which I have served as BOCC liaison); the Small Business Loan Fund and much more.
Support for FITCI (the Frederick Innovative Technology Center Inc.). More than 200 direct new jobs have been created through this business incubator.
Support for the Redevelopment Tax Credit programs to fill vacant space.
From 2005 to 2009, Frederick County has been the 6th highest number of new jobs created among counties in Maryland. Frederick County is one of only ten counties in Maryland that has experienced positive job growth over this period of time. And we have new business construction underway in Urbana with the new Banner Life Insurance headquarters, the new National Cancer Institute /SAIC building at Riverside Corporate Research Park, and an approved office and research center off of MD 85 in Westview South.
Served for the entire term as the liaison to the Frederick County Tourism Council.
Supported the county-wide Stream Buffer Ordinance.
Reduced by approximately half the development potential of the county's Resource Conservation zones.
Numerous improvements to the zoning ordinance to support agriculture and farmers in Frederick County.
In conjunction with changes on county land use plans, we re-focused county priorities in our Capital Improvement Plan, emphasizing the rehabilitation and renovation of old schools that had suffered years of neglect as capital funds went to build many new schools to accommodate rapid residential growth. This commitment included the renovation of West Frederick Middle School, the replacement of Linganore High School, the additions to Carroll Manor Elementary School and Walkersville Elementary School, while also moving up or beginning work on other old schools, such as Lincoln Elementary School.
Achieved long-term goal of school capacity at 90% systemwide.
Prioritized funding for education by fully funding "Maintenance of Effort." (With the substantial reductions we made in other parts of the county budget, the share of the county operating budget supporting Frederick County Public Schools rose from 50% to 58%.
Improved the school component of the county's Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance (a phasing mechanism established to ensure that new development was served with needed infrastructure).
Committed $2 million to advance the US 15/Monocacy Blvd Interchange (which was listed as our number one priority to keep high on the state's list of local projects to fund).
Improved the traffic component of the county's Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance.
The revised New Market Region Plan and the newly updated Comprehensive Plan pulled back growth boundaries to reduce sprawl, reducing the need for expensive new roads and the demand on some of our already congested roads and intersections.
Established a county Energy Conservation Plan (which includes a goal of 50% renewable energy).
Purchased a number of hybrid vehicles in Fleet Services, and two hybrid buses for county Transit services.
Supported the strengthening of the Frederick County Forest Resource Ordinance.
To date, have achieved an overall 10% reduction in county fuel consumption.
Converted the Park and Recreation Department (which was buried within the Division of Public Works) into a an upper level division of county government, and have worked to expand its scope and mission.
Applied LEED building standards for the new Brunswick Branch Library and the Catoctin Creek Nature Center (opened in 2011) which also has a green roof and geo-thermal heating.
Supported amendment to zoning to better enable solar and wind systems for on-site generation and use (this helped county residents qualify for state and federal tax credits and incentives. It was a good step, but I think the result was overly restrictive, and I supported broadening the scale of the systems that are permitted, with appropriate setbacks, etc.).
Introduced Single Stream Recycling to all Single Family Residential Households (though I advocated and support finding a way to do this with our local, private haulers, rather than a single, large out-of-state company).
Development of an award-winning Composting Operation (currently for yard waste, not food waste).
Landfill Gas to Energy Project completed (which captures most of the methane – a powerful greenhouse gas – produced in the landfill and generate electricity and revenue).
More details are found elsewhere, but I have actively opposed the 1,500 tons per day, regional "Waste-to-Energy" incinerator since 2005. This extraordinarily expensive and economically-risky project was approved in spite of my objections and without my support. It now appears likely that Carroll County (our 40% partner) will pull out of the project, leaving the current Board of County Commissioners with another opportunity to reverse course altogether. I hope the county will move in another and better – and far less risky – direction.

I have actually seen other carpet cleaners using dry cleaning methods with the word or contractions of the word chemical in the name of the company say that they are a green and Eco-friendly company. Common sense tells you if they have chemicals in the name of the company then they rely heavily on chemicals. Steam cleaning on the other hand relies on the natural ability of clean natural water being heated up to a steam to emulsify dirt, grease, and grime and simultaneously extracting it with our high powered water extraction unit. In addition to deep cleaning your carpet all the way to the carpet padding steam has the ability to sanitize, deodorize, kill parasites like fleas and bed bugs, kill bacteria like E. Coli and kill viruses too. So, you can see why steam cleaning is the obvious choice for the individual who is looking for a great cleaning while at the same time making the home or office healthier to live or work in.


"Jeff Kober is my absolute favorite acting teacher. He is warm, calm, and patient and gives each student his undivided attention when it is their turn to work. Everyone has to work each week, even the shy ones. He is an amazing teacher. You learn a lot from him and become a much more open and emotional person with his training, which is important for acting. Love him." - Candy C.
"I have worked with many acting teachers over my career. While each has advanced me in some fashion, Jeff's guidance has had by far, the greatest impact. His gentle encouragement & adjustments always create a safe space for me to perform at my best. I can't stress enough how important it is for me to study with some one who actually performs the job they teach. I have been able to take this technique on set and absolutely own my character/performance." - Blaine G.
"I truly feel that Jeff's class made me a better performer. I feel more confident in my skills now and ready to conquer any audition. At the end of the session I even got the attention of an agent! I would recommend his class to anyone looking to improve themselves and take the next step in their career." -Lauren R.
I took the 8 week class with Jeff Kober and I enjoyed every night I was there. He is not a coach that walks in thinking he already knows it all. Because as he said, " you never stop learning". That's what made the class enjoyable. That's what makes acting so addicting. It was more like a journey into who you really are. -John O.
"Finally! An acting class that gets to the truth and core of it all! Jeff Kober is an expert in his field, his body of work proves this. But the way he teaches, rather guides his students to bring all they have to their work is a gift beyond just his own acting talent. Never have I felt safer to let myself go to such depths, always trusting and knowing that Jeff was guiding me in exactly the right way for me! Each student receiving the special attention and instruction that was right for them in each moment.
Jeff has so much respect, knowledge and honor for the craft it is hard not to want to find that same depth and show up with all you have. He inspires me on every level and I will forever feel grateful to Jeff for not only supporting my work but showing me I had talents in areas and at depths I wouldn't have known had it not been for the commitment he brings to me and all his students. Its a class unlike any you've taken or will take! If you want to see your work really change at a core level, and have that reflect in the way you audition and the parts you get...Jeff's class will get you there!" - Jilann O.
"Keep it real acting has some amazing teachers. I have studied with Judy Kain for commercials - she works non stop as an actress in them- & Jeff Kober for Scene study & repetition classes. I can't recommend this place enough! If your not in class you need to be! Learn from the people who work in the business." - Blaine G.
"What a wonderful place to take class! I have tried many different teachers and studios over the years and have never come across such a professional and educational way to approach my work. I have taken the Meisner Repetition Class and Theatrical Technique Class both with Jeff Kober and Stacy Edwards. I can't recommend both classes enough!!! Seriously, if you would like to book more work, take these classes! I did and I have." -Jocey S.

Scientists develop camera that can see through human body
By Jamilah Nasir
Scientists have developed a camera that can see through the human body, BBC reports.
The device, which works by detecting light sources inside the body, has been designed to help doctors track medical tools, known as endoscopes, during internal examinations.
It was developed by researchers so it can be used at the patient's bedside.
Until now, medics have had to rely on expensive scans, such as X-rays, to trace their progress.
The project, led by the University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt University, is part of the Proteus Interdisciplinary Research Collaboration, which is developing a range of new technologies for diagnosing and treating lung diseases.
The camera can detect individual particles, called photons, and is so sensitive it can catch tiny traces of light passing through tissue.
It can also record the time taken for light to pass through the body, meaning the device is able to work out exactly where the endoscope is.
"It has immense potential for diverse applications, such as the one described in this work," said Kev Dhaliwal of the University of Edinburgh.
"The ability to see a device's location is crucial for many applications in healthcare, as we move forwards with minimally invasive approaches to treating disease."
On his part, Michael Tanner, of Heriot-Watt University, said: "My favourite element of this work was the ability to work with clinicians to understand a practical healthcare challenge, then tailor advanced technologies and principles that would not normally make it out of a physics lab to solve real problems.
"I hope we can continue this interdisciplinary approach to make a real difference in healthcare technology."

Henodus  (from  , 'one' and  , 'tooth') is an extinct placodont of the Late Triassic period during the early Carnian age. Fossils of Henodus chelyops were found in the Estherienschichten Member of the Grabfeld Formation, near Tübingen, Germany. It was around  in length. The single species within the genus is H. chelyops.

Henodus is the only placodont thus far found in non-marine deposits, suggesting it may have lived in brackish or freshwater lagoons.

Description
Henodus, like many other placodonts, had a superficial resemblance to a turtle. Like turtles, it had a shell formed from a plastron on the underside and a carapace on top. The carapace extended well beyond the limbs, and was made up of individual plates of bony scutes covered by plates of horn. However, the shell was composed of many more pieces of bone than that of turtles, forming a mosaic pattern. The armor was fused to its spine, and its limbs were situated in normal positions, unlike the turtle, where they are located inside the ribcage. The weak limbs of Henodus suggest it spent little, if any time on land.

Henodus also had a single tooth on each side of its mouth, though the remaining teeth were replaced by a beak. In addition, it had baleen-like denticles along the jaws, which combined with a unique feature of the hyoid and musculature indicative of rapid jaw closing indicate a filter feeding lifestyle. The head was squared-off at the front, just ahead of the eyes.

Paleo-ecology
More recently, however, it has been suggested that this placodont was an aquatic herbivore, scraping off vegetation from the bottom with its broad jaws. This suggestion has been brought up in a paper discussing the habits and morphology of Atopodentatus, another Mesozoic aquatic reptile formerly suggested to be a filter-feeder and bearing strongly convergent jaw adaptations, including a similar "hammerhead" jaw tips, though unlike Atopodentatus it's still believed that Henodus relied on filter feeding to obtain plant-matter from the substrates.

The health insurance exchange in your state makes it easy to comparison shop for health insurance.
Luciano Lozano/Getty Images
A health insurance exchange, otherwise known as a health insurance marketplace, is a comparison-shopping area for health insurance. Private health insurance companies list their health plans with the exchange, and people comparison shop on the exchange from among the available health plan listings.
Luciano Lozano / Getty Images
The phrase health insurance exchange most commonly refers to public health insurance exchanges developed by the government because of the Affordable Care Act (the ACA, also known as Obamacare) although private health insurance exchanges do exist. Private health insurance exchanges are usually designed to serve several large employers, so most people will only encounter them when signing up for job-based health insurance.
Public health insurance exchanges are used to buy individual and family health insurance plans that are compliant with the ACA ("individual and family" or "individual market" means health insurance that people buy on their own, as opposed to coverage that's obtained through an employer or via a government-run program like Medicare or Medicaid). And these exchanges are the only place people can obtain premium subsidies and cost-sharing reductions, which serve to reduce premiums and out-of-pocket costs for millions of eligible enrollees (9.6 million people were receiving premium subsidies through the exchanges in 2020, and 5.6 million people were receiving cost-sharing reductions).
People who are eligible for Medicaid based on their income can enroll in Medicaid via the exchange in their state (either directly, or the exchange will direct them to the state Medicaid office once a preliminary eligibility determination indicates that they're likely eligible for Medicaid).
In some states, small group plans for small businesses are available through the exchanges as well. But that segment of their market has attracted few enrollees, and the federal government announced in May 2017 that they would no longer operate the small business enrollment system (used in 33 states as of 2017) after the end of 2017. Instead, small businesses in those states enroll directly through insurance companies or with the help of a broker, and pay premiums to the insurers rather than making premium payments through the exchange. But SHOP-certified plans, via agents, brokers, and insurers, are only available in limited areas in some of those states; most states that use HealthCare.gov simply don't have any SHOP-certified plans available at all anymore, due to low interest in that program.
But this article focuses on the ACA's public health insurance exchanges and the individual market health insurance plans that make up the bulk of the exchanges' private plan enrollments. It's "exchanges," plural, because each state has an exchange. And although the word marketplace invokes the mental image of a physical place where shoppers wander from stall to stall checking out the vendors' wares, most people access health insurance exchanges via the internet.
The largest health insurance exchange, HealthCare.gov, is run by the federal government, serving health insurance shoppers in 36 states. The other 14 states and the District of Columbia each run their own exchanges (eg, platforms such as Nevada Health Link, Pennie, New York State of Health, and Connect for Health Colorado). A few of the states that currently use HealthCare.gov—including Maine, Virginia, Kentucky, and New Mexico—are in various stages of transitioning to having their own fully state-run exchanges in the coming years, so the number of states relying on the federally-run exchange platform is expected to decline over time.
Exchanges Are Enrollment Portals—They're Not Your Insurer
It's important to understand that the exchanges are just a platform for purchasing coverage. If you buy health insurance via Covered California, for example (the state-run exchange in California), Covered California is not your insurance company. Instead, your insurance company will be Health Net or Blue Shield, or Anthem or any of the other private insurers that offer coverage via Covered California.
States had the option of creating their own exchanges or relying on the federal government to create an exchange for them. Some states have hybrid exchanges that are either a partnership between the state and federal government or a state-run exchange that uses the federal enrollment platform (HealthCare.gov). As of 2021, there are15 fully state-run exchanges, six state-run exchanges that use HealthCare.gov for enrollment, six state-federal partnership exchanges, and 24 federally-run exchanges (through the 2020 plan year. Pennsylvania and New Jersey used HealthCare.gov, but both transitioned to running their own exchange platforms in the fall of 2020).
And to clarify one other point that sometimes creates confusion, the terms "exchange" and "marketplace" are used interchangeably. But the term "market" is used more generally. So while a health insurance exchange or marketplace refers specifically to the portal in each state that people can use to compare the various options and enroll, the term "health insurance market" applies much more broadly, and can include plans sold outside the exchange and employer-sponsored plans as well as grandmothered and grandfathered plans (the latter two types of coverage are no longer available to new enrollees, but still remain in force for many employers and individuals who had previously purchased them).
What's the Difference Between "On-Exchange" and "Off-Exchange"?
If you're buying a health insurance plan in the individual market, you'll probably hear people referring to "on-exchange" plans versus "off-exchange" plans. An "on-exchange" plan is simply one that's purchased through the exchange. People can shop for exchange plans on their own, or they can have help from a broker or navigator (and in some cases, "on-exchange" plans can be purchased via an online broker's website; ask plenty of questions if you're working with a broker or a private website, to ensure that you're getting an on-exchange plan if that's your preference).
"Off-exchange" plans, on the other hand, are purchased without going through the ACA exchange in your state. They can be purchased directly from an insurance company, or with the help of a broker. Premium subsidies and cost-sharing subsidies are not available if you buy an off-exchange plan, even if you'd otherwise be eligible (and you can't go back and claim the premium subsidy on your tax return if you bought an off-exchange plan, whereas you can if you buy an on-exchange plan and don't take the premium subsidy upfront).
But in many cases, the plans themselves are identical or nearly identical, on- and off-exchange. All individual major medical plans with effective dates of January 2014 or later are required to be fully compliant with the ACA, regardless of whether they're sold in the exchange or off-exchange. That part is important: Insurance companies cannot sell non-compliant major medical health plans in the individual market, even if they sell them outside the exchange.
Depending on how your state has structured its exchange, the health plans available on-exchange might have to adhere to additional requirements beyond simply being ACA-compliant (for example, some states require the plans sold in the exchange to be standardized, with the same set of specific benefits offered by each insurer).
Some insurers choose to only offer their plans for sale on-exchange, others only offer them off-exchange, and others offer plans both on- and off-exchange (note that Washington DC does not allow plans to be sold off-exchange; ACA-compliant individual and small group health plans can only be purchased there via DC Health Link, the District's health insurance exchange).
Non-ACA-Compliant Plans Sold Outside the Exchange
Plans that are currently for sale outside the exchange but that are not compliant with the ACA generally fall into the category of "excepted benefits," which means they're specifically exempt from the ACA's rules, and are, by definition, not individual major medical health insurance. Excepted benefits include short-term health insurance, limited benefit plans, fixed indemnity plans, accident supplements, critical illness/specific disease plans, and dental/vision insurance.
There are also various other types of coverage, including health care sharing ministries (and Farm Bureau plans in a few states, including Kansas, Iowa, Tennessee, and as of 2021, Indiana), that are not considered health insurance and thus not subject to health insurance rules and regulations.
Some of these plans, including short-term plans, health care sharing ministry plans, and Farm Bureau plans, are designed to serve as stand-alone medical coverage for at least a short while, although they all have gaps in their coverage when compared with ACA-compliant plans—some more so than others. The rest of the excepted benefits are designed to serve as supplemental coverage. Excepted benefits and "non-insurance" plans are available off-exchange in most areas (and dental/vision plans are available on-exchange in many areas).
Who Can Use the Exchanges?
All U.S. citizens and legally present residents who are not imprisoned and not enrolled in Medicare are eligible to purchase a health plan in the exchange in the state in which they live. Undocumented immigrants cannot enroll in coverage through the exchanges, even without premium subsidies.
In some states, small businesses can also purchase coverage in the exchange (in most states, this is limited to businesses with up to 50 employees). Note that in states that use HealthCare.gov's small business exchange, the exchange is no longer handling enrollment, and is having businesses enroll directly with insurers instead. Some of the state-run exchanges are also using this approach, so on-exchange availability of small group health coverage is fairly limited.
As a result of the Grassley Amendment in the ACA, Congress and their staffers are required to obtain coverage in the exchange. To accommodate this requirement and ensure that Congress and staffers didn't lose their employer premium contributions, the government created a workaround that lets Congress and staffers enroll in small group plans through the state-run exchange in the District of Columbia (DC Health Link). DC Health Link reported in April 2017 that about 11,000 of their small group enrollees were members of Congress and their staffers. The annual open enrollment period for members of Congress and their staff runs for one month in the fall (it's an enrollment window for employer-sponsored coverage, so it's not the same as the open enrollment period that applies to individuals purchasing their own health insurance through DC Health Link).
How Many People Have Coverage Through the ACA's Exchanges?
At the end of open enrollment for 2020 coverage (which ended on December 15, 2019, in most states), total exchange enrollment in individual market plans stood at 11.4 million people, including enrollments conducted via HealthCare.gov and the 13 state-run exchanges. Effectuated enrollment (ie, in-force policies) as of early 2020 stood at about 10.7 million people. Effectuated enrollment is always lower than the number of people who sign up during open enrollment, as there are invariably some people who don't pay their initial premiums or who cancel their coverage shortly after enrolling.
The number of people enrolled in individual market plans through the exchanges increased more than usual throughout the course of 2020, as millions of Americans faced at least a temporary loss of employer-sponsored coverage due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of them have an option to continue their employer-sponsored plans with COBRA or state continuation, but they also have a choice to buy individual coverage in the exchange, with premium subsidies and cost-sharing reductions if their income makes them eligible. And although the open enrollment window for 2020 ended before the COVID pandemic took hold in the U.S., loss of employer-sponsored coverage triggers a special enrollment period, regardless of when it happens during the year.
Small businesses can enroll in plans through the exchanges, but there were fewer than 200,000 people enrolled in small business exchange plans nationwide in 2017—the vast majority of the ACA exchange enrollees have coverage in the individual market.
How Health Insurance Exchanges Work
Exchanges are designed to increase competition and ease comparison shopping. Insurance companies compete for your business in the exchange. This direct competition is meant to keep the cost of health insurance premiums down. Exchanges/marketplaces ease the comparison of plans by using an "apples to apples" approach:
All health insurance policies offered through the exchanges provide a minimum set of essential health benefits, although the specific coverage that's offered will vary from one state to another, depending on the benchmark plan that the state uses. (Covering essential health benefits is part of being ACA-compliant, so the off-exchange individual major medical plans available in your area will also cover the essential health benefits.):
Ambulatory care (outpatient care)
Mental health care, including treatment for substance use disorders)
Rehabilitation services and habilitative services, including devices
Pediatric vision and dental care (coverage for adult dental and vision services is not required. And the rules for pediatric dental coverage are a little different from the other essential health benefits).
Standardized plans are available in the exchanges in some states. In California's exchange, all of the plans are standardized.
All health insurance policies offered in the exchange must conform to one of five benefit tiers: catastrophic, bronze, silver, gold, or platinum. Both on- and off-exchange, a policy's benefit tier (bronze, silver, gold, or platinum) describes the percentage of average covered health care expenses the plan will pay, otherwise known as the actuarial value (AV) of the plan. You can learn more about how these benefit tiers work in, " Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum—Understanding the Metal-tier System." In most areas of the country, platinum plans are scarce or not available at all in the individual market. Silver and gold plans are available in all areas of the country (insurers that offer plans in the exchange are required to offer them at the silver and gold level, at a minimum) and nearly every county in the US has bronze plans available.
Catastrophic plans cover less than 60% of the cost of essential health benefits for a standard population, but they still must adhere to the ACA's cap on out-of-pocket costs. Catastrophic plans also include three primary care office visits before the deductible, and certain preventive care is covered in full, just as it is on all ACA-compliant plans. Everything else applies to the deductible and is only covered after it's met. Both inside the exchange and outside the exchange, Catastrophic plans are only available to those up to age 30 or to those who qualify for a hardship exemption from the mandate to purchase coverage (although there's no longer a federal penalty for not having coverage, the mandate itself still exists and an exemption is still required in order to purchase a catastrophic plan if you're 30 or older).
Exchanges provide subsidies to help pay for health insurance. Health insurance exchanges are the only access point for government subsidies (premium tax credits) that make health insurance more affordable for Americans with modest incomes. You can apply for a government health insurance subsidy through your health insurance exchange, and the subsidy is only good for health insurance bought on the health insurance exchange. Learn more about health insurance subsidies in, "Can I Get Help Paying for Health Insurance?"
Even if you think you might be eligible for a premium subsidy but aren't sure due to fluctuations in your income, you'll want to consider buying a plan through the exchange. You can pay full price and then go back later and claim the subsidy (since it's really just a tax credit) on your tax return. But you can't do that if you bought your plan off-exchange.
There's a new twist, however, that started to apply in 2018: People who aren't eligible for a premium subsidy and who want to purchase a silver-level plan may find that the off-exchange versions of the plans are less expensive. That's because of the way the cost of cost-sharing subsidies are being added to the premiums.
In 2018 and 2019, however, you couldn't switch back to an on-exchange plan mid-year if your income dropped and made you subsidy-eligible. There were always exceptions for people who experienced qualifying events, but a change in income wasn't a qualifying event unless you were already enrolled in an on-exchange plan. That changed as of 2020, however, with the introduction of a new special enrollment period for people who have off-exchange coverage and who experience an income change that makes them newly-eligible for subsidies. But it is still important to carefully consider the pros and cons of making a mid-year plan change (ie, from off-exchange to on-exchange), since deductibles and out-of-pocket spending generally start over when you switch to a new plan.
In addition to premium subsidies, cost-sharing subsidies (also known as cost-sharing reductions) are also only available if you buy a silver plan through the exchange in your state. If your income makes you eligible for cost-sharing subsidies and/or premium subsidies, you'll want to enroll through the exchanges (as opposed to enrolling off-exchange an insurance company) in order to take advantage of the available assistance.
Finding Your Health Insurance Exchange
Your state may run its own health insurance exchange such as the one run by California, Covered California. Or, your state may have opted not to create a health insurance exchange, or to create an exchange but use the federal enrollment platform. In that case, residents use the federal government's exchange at HealthCare.gov.
The following states have their own enrollment websites, although you can get to them by starting at HealthCare.gov and clicking on your state or entering your zip code:
In every state, enrollment in the exchange (and outside the exchange) is limited to an annual open enrollment window (November 1 to December 15 in most states) and special enrollment periods triggered by qualifying events.
States that run their own exchange enrollment platforms (ie, they don't use HealthCare.gov) can create special enrollment periods at their discretion, and most of them also offer a longer general open enrollment period each year.

The Power of Nature
Contribute to the Vision
In the Fall of 2000, Dr. Timothy Johns, along with a caring group of like-minded people, started Rock Solid Urban Impact – a not-for-profit 501C3 charitable community development corporation. Rock Solid Urban Impact (RSUI) was established to facilitate social transformation on a practical level and to help train at-risk urban youth in life skills. Rock Solid Urban Impact later bought an abandoned inner-city parochial school along with vacant lots to be used for outreach, training, and community gardens.
RSUI combined relational community with sustainable community in the inner-city of Kansas City, which proved to be a winning combination for urban transformation. Crime rates dropped and young people were equipped with life skills within the context of a loving "family".
We are everyday people from different backgrounds with a common vision to make a difference in today's world. We have been captured by compassion for youth, poor, and disenfranchised people. We believe that if people work together, they can change the most distressed and impoverished places on earth including our inner-cities.

If you have paid attention to the Dungeon Synth scene within the last few years, you have seen the work of John Bauer and more specifically his illustration "Ännu sitter Tuvstarr kvar och ser ner i vattnet" (Still, Tuvstarr sits and gazes down into the water). This watercolor was a favorite among Dungeon Synth fans for its vintage quality in fantasy art and the deep folkloric traditions of Swedish myths. The painting came in a collection of other myths which were published in the 1907 anthology "Bland tomtar och troll" (Among Gnomes and Trolls). This painting was popular at its time which was used in a shampoo ad in the early 20th century and later in the 90's as a cetnerpoint for a nature conservation campaign. For as relativity obscure John Bauer has become int he canon of art and even fantasy art, Tuvstarr has become a beacon for many people to find his work. Even though Tuvstarr has been used in various ways, the lure of imagination and myth is still potent today as it was over a hundred years ago.

Q: Adding dynamic content with events in jquerymobile Currently I'm stuck with a problem in jquerymobile: I'm adding items to a list dynamically and use enhanceWithin() in the end (so styling is correct).
After this I like to add click-events for each list item but the problem is, that enhanceWithin runs asynchronous and so I always get the error message "cannot call methods on checkboxradio prior to initialization; attempted to call method 'refresh'"
When I delay the event-adding-code it works perfectly.
Does anyone have an idea if there is a enhanceWithin.done event or anything else I can use?
HTML:
...

Loading list...

...

Javascript:
function updateList()
{
    var result = "";

    $.each(shoppinglistItems, function (index, item) {
        result += '<input type="checkbox" ' + item.checked + ' id="item_' + item.id + '">' + item.name + '\n';
    });

    $('#shoppinglist').html(result).enhanceWithin();

    // Change-Events an die Checkboxen knoten
    $('input[id*=item_]').unbind('change').bind('change', function (event) {
        var itemid = $(this).attr('id');
        itemid = (itemid.split('_'))[1];    // Nur die Zahl extrahieren
        // Passendes Item aus der Liste der Items suchen und checken
        $.each(shoppinglistItems, function (index, item) {
            if (item.id == itemid)
            {
                item.checked = "checked";
                item.timestamp = moment().format("YYYYMMDDHHmmss");
            }
        });
        updateList();
    });
}

A: Omar's advice of using event delegation should work for you. In my example below, I call updatelist on pagecreate to initially create the checkboxes. Then I use event delegation (on()) to create the change handler on any inputs within the shoppinglist DIV whether they exist right now or not. the line $("#shoppinglistItemsCont").html(JSON.stringify(shoppinglistItems)); simply prints the contents of the object to the screen so you can see it change.
$(document).on("pagecreate", "#page1", function(){

    $("#shoppinglistItemsCont").html(JSON.stringify(shoppinglistItems));
    updateList();

    $("#shoppinglist").on("change", "input[id*=item_]", function(event){
        var itemid = $(this).attr('id');
        itemid = (itemid.split('_'))[1];    // Nur die Zahl extrahieren
        // Passendes Item aus der Liste der Items suchen und checken
        $.each(shoppinglistItems, function (index, item) {
            if (item.id == itemid)
            {
                item.checked = "checked";
                item.timestamp = moment().format("YYYYMMDDHHmmss");
            }
        });
        updateList();
        $("#shoppinglistItemsCont").html(JSON.stringify(shoppinglistItems));
    });

});

function updateList()
{
    var result = "";
    $.each(shoppinglistItems, function (index, item) {
        result += '<input type="checkbox" ' + item.checked + ' id="item_' + item.id + '">' + item.name + '\n';
    });

    $('#shoppinglist').html(result).enhanceWithin();
}

Pacers forward Glenn Robinson III will be in uniform Friday after missing 58 games following ankle surgery.
INDIANAPOLIS – Glenn Robinson III has been cleared to make his season debut Friday night for the Indiana Pacers, after missing 58 games following ankle surgery. The small forward passed his conditioning test Tuesday, went through a full practice Wednesday and is expected to be in uniform at Bankers Life Fieldhouse to face the Atlanta Hawks.
Don't expect Robinson to play heavy minutes right away, as the Pacers planned to ease him into the rotation as a backup to Bojan Bogdanovic. However, Robinson's return is another positive sign for the Pacers (33-25), who have been one of the NBA's biggest surprises. Robinson is one of the Pacers' best defensive players, with the size (6-foot-6) and versatility to defend small forwards and shooting guards. He will immediately make the Pacers deeper, and his intention is to make them better.
"I'm ready to go," said Robinson following Wednesday's practice. "Obviously I got to fit in with the team, we've been playing really well. I think I'll do a good job fitting in with this team, my style of play. Really, it's up to (coach) Nate (McMillan) to see the minutes he gives me. Hopefully, he gives me an opportunity.
It has been a long process for Robinson, who suffered his ankle injury during training camp, leading to surgery and weeks of rehabilitation. Robinson's demeanor during Wednesday's practice excited McMillan.
"When he walked out on the floor, he looked like old Glenn," said McMillan. "He looked confident. He didn't look hesitant. During the practice, he was aggressive attacking the basket. He looked like the Glenn who walked into training camp.
Robinson is still improving at age 24, coming off a season in which he averaged career highs in both points (6.1) and rebounds (3.6) per game. He was looking forward to having his best season, and has worked hard to return. Would Robinson be nervous Friday? Yes, but he would also be thrilled.

Q: Creating a data driven resource manager while keeping the VS2010 designer features I'm quite used to consume resx designer generated classes, for a clean coding and to avoid mistakes.
However, in a specific project, I need to rely to a database table, containing all labels and their translations in several languages.
I could simply create my own class and get the translated label, however I'd also like to take advantage of VS2010 resource manager and autogenerated *.Designer.cs classes.
I didn't figure out how to do that.
The *.Designer.cs file contains the following comment:
// This class was auto-generated by the StronglyTypedResourceBuilder
// class via a tool like ResGen or Visual Studio.
// To add or remove a member, edit your .ResX file then rerun ResGen
// with the /str option, or rebuild your VS project.

So, I suppose I must use the StronglyTypedResourceBuilder (or my own version of this class).
But how to automatically build the class during the design?
And how to save/retrieve data from the DB?

Most of these ETFs invest in stocks of companies that are deemed to have a small market capitalization size, generally between $300 million and $10 billion and are non-U.S. equities. The companies are also deemed to be below their intrinsic value, or the price at which the company should trade. This category is ideal for moderate investors who are looking for exposure to value stocks in developed markets. Despite the value label, small caps and mid-cap stocks to some degree carry greater risk from a capitalization and competition standpoint, which makes this category better suited for moderate investors.
