The best ginger tea I have tasted.
Tastes like fresh ginger - strong and slightly sweet. So convenient to have tear and pour sachets! I am probably addicted to this product and have to have some every day!
It is the best ginger tea I've ever tasted. Just right amount of honey. It is also great cure for indigestion. Both my husband and I love it.
Great tasting tea and it has just the right amount of honey.
Ginger tea is a best!
Ginger tea is absolutely delicious! I love it, and I use it for flue prevention. This tea is taste and healthy.
Best ginger blended with honey that we have tasted. My family were so upset when it was out of stock recently for months. Its very hard to get in the shops so I ordered a year supply requesting a long expire date to save on postage.
I Love this tea, can be drunk hot or cold. Great hot in winter, cold in summer and the service is great.
A really tasy, refreshing tea - very easy to use and no teabag.
I've never reviewed anything in my life before!
For some reason the stores in my local area stopped stocking this particular one and so I thought I would go straight to the source and I'm so glad I have.
Yes the postage is a little pricey but it was delivered in record time and at a bargain price too.
This is the only tea I drink and I recommend it all as a refreshing treat with a little kick at the end.
If you thought their lemon and ginger tea is good ... This is also fantastic and so so strong ..., I absolutely love it at the sachets are so convenient. They also kindly gave me some ginseng samples .... It just gets better and better ... These guys are in a league of their own with truly world class products.
The new foil bags are an improvement. A jar or packet of granules would be even better.
I have always liked ginger in all its many guises but as a daily brew it has proved beneficial and 'comforting'. I also appreciate the genuine Caribbean connection.
I love it! seriously I'm addicted to the stuff!!
The most gingery tea I have found. I love it. Postage too expensive though!
very good mix,but one point down: usually i'd received big plastic bag ,but this time just small carton pack,I tried to call but no reply. thats shame..
, not too much just enough, I would give this product 10 out of 10.
My family have used this tea for a few years now and would never be without it. Young and old love it.

Dead End in Norvelt
Tags: / Children's Books
Check the Library Catalog
Dead End in Norvelt is the winner of the 2012 Newbery Medal for the year's best contribution to children's literature and the Scott O'Dell Award for Historical Fiction!
Melding the entirely true and the wildly fictional, Dead End in Norvelt is a novel about an incredible two months for a kid named Jack Gantos, whose plans for vacation excitement are shot down when he is "grounded for life" by his feuding parents, and whose nose spews bad blood at every little shock he gets. But plenty of excitement (and shocks) are coming Jack's way once his mom loans him out to help a fiesty old neighbor with a most unusual chore -- typewriting obituaries filled with stories about the people who founded his utopian town. As one obituary leads to another, Jack is launced on a strange adventure involving molten wax, Eleanor Roosevelt, twisted promises, a homemade airplane, Girl Scout cookies, a man on a trike, a dancing plague, voices from the past, Hells Angels . . . and possibly murder. Endlessly surprising, this sly, sharp-edged narrative is the author at his very best, making readers laugh out loud at the most unexpected things in a dead-funny depiction of growing up in a slightly off-kilter place where the past is present, the present is confusing, and the future is completely up in the air.
Jack Gantos
track author
Jack Gantos is an American author of children's books renowned for his portrayal of fictional Joey Pigza, a boy with ADHD, and many other well known characters such as Rotten Ralph, Jack Henry, Jack Gantos (memoirs) and others. Gantos has won a number of awards, including the Newbery, the Newbery Honor, the Scott O'Dell Award, the Printz Honor, and the Sibert Honor from the American Library Association, and he has been a finalist for the National Book Award. Gantos was born in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania to son of construction superintendent John Gantos and banker Elizabeth (Weaver) Gantos. The seeds for Jack Gantos' writing career were planted in sixth grade, when he read his sister's diary and decided he could write better than she could. Born in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, and raised in Barbados and South Florida, Mr. Gantos began collecting anecdotes in grade school and later gathered them into stories. After his senior year in high school (where he lived in a welfare motel) he moved to a Caribbean island (St Croix) and began to train as a builder. He soon realized that construction was not his forté and started saving for college. While in St. Croix he met a drug smuggler and was offered a chance to make 10 000 dollars by sailing to New York with 2,000 pounds of hash. With an English eccentric captain on board they set off to the big city. Once there they hung out at the Chelsea hotel and Gantos carried on dreaming about college. Then, in Jacks own words, "The **** hit the fan" and the F.B.I. burst in on him. He managed to escape and hid out in the very same welfare motel he was living during high school. However, he saw sense and turned himself in. He was sentenced to six years in prison, which he describes in his novel -HOLE IN MY LIFE-. However, after a year and a half in prison he applied to college, was accepted. He was released from prison, entered college, and soon began his writing career. He received his BFA and his MA both from Emerson College. While in college, Jack began working on picture books with an illustrator friend. In 1976, they published their first book, Rotten Ralph. Mr. Gantos continued writing children's books and began teaching courses in children's book writing. He developed the master's degree program in children's book writing at Emerson College in Boston. In 1995 he resigned his tenured position in order to further his writing career (which turned out to be a great decision) . He married art dealer Anne A. Lower on November 11, 1989. The couple has one child, Mabel, and they live in Boston, Massachusetts.

Infrastructure investments must avoid sovereign risk
SMSF trustees looking to invest in infrastructure via a fund manager must examine the nature of the underlying assets in the portfolio to ensure they are not exposed to sovereign risk, according to a specialist investment house.
Speaking at the recent smstrusteenews SMSF Trustee Empowerment Day 2018, Magellan Asset Management key account manager Emma Kirk used the Chengyu Expressway as an example of when sovereign risk can significantly affect an infrastructure asset.
"In 2012, the Chinese government introduced toll-free days across the national holidays, and there were eight national holidays, for small passenger vehicles. Absolutely great for those people with small passenger vehicles, but there were a couple of second-order effects that occurred as a result," Kirk said.
"Firstly, maintenance costs went up because there were more people using the road. The trucks that were paying the tolls couldn't get on the road, so therefore they actually had a lack of trucks using the road and therefore a lack of tolls.
"And the biggest impact was the toll revenue went down. The next year the government increased the number of toll-free days to 20 and therefore that had another impact."
She pointed out the Chinese government then embarked on a program to increase the toll roads across the nation by another 30,000 kilometres, increasing the area covered by toll roads to 150,000 kilometres.
"In 2013 they completed three new expressways and that once again changed the distribution of vehicles and had an impact on this particular expressway and decreased its revenue," Kirk said.
She noted though that regulation was a completely separate issue with regard to infrastructure investing and should not immediately be considered a negative factor.
"For example, in the US there are 51 regulated infrastructure assets and one federal regulator. Across these assets there is a return band between 9 and 13 per cent.
"So the US allows these utilities to earn a set rate of return and it's supposed to be a fair rate of return and a fair return is deemed to be 10.5 per cent."
Kirk added these returns had remained consistent over time and regulation had played a major role.
"So we are very happy with regulation, however, where there is sovereign risk associated with it, we don't want to be there."

A turtle in open water, a squid looking for a meal; ever wonder what animals are thinking? Each animal in this series describes life with its own "voice" accompanied by rare images and clear commentary. The episodes highlight details of their unique habits, quests for food and ultimately how they survive in their rugged environments. Take a look inside the lives of these magnificent creatures in a simple accurate way, which is sure to appeal to every child.
Elephants are the largest animals on the planet. They are very strong and have thick skin that protects them. They usually travel in groups with the females giving orders. They are vegetarians and love fruit. When water and food are scarce in Africa, the elephants travel until they can find a new watering hole.
Frogs belong to the amphibian family. They are champions in the water and at jumping. They can jump up to two meters, which is very important for catching flying insects for food. The male stays on top of the female until she lays her eggs. The babies start off as tadpoles and eventually sprout legs. Some of them will become tree frogs, many stay close to the water, and others enjoy the woods.
Rotna and her friend Fatima attend a UNICEF school. They practice writing in Bengali, the official language, and study their country's history. Transportation is varied, with skateboards competing with rickshaws.
Searching for rainwater's journey to the ocean, Johan takes a field trip traveling from gutters to drains and then to rivers and oceans.
Porcupines are considered rodents and can weigh up to 44 pounds. They live in the woods and bushes and are vegetarians. Porcupines have quills on their backs for defense. Quills are like long, hard nails and can be up to sixteen inches in length.
Sea turtles, an endangered species, are monitored by sea turtle rescuers to ensure their survival. Once the female turtles are full grown, they go to the beach to lay eggs. The female leaves the nest before the eggs are ready to hatch and it is up to the babies to find their way to the ocean.
There are many different kinds of snakes. The largest snake is the anaconda. It lives in the Amazon and can weigh up to the equivalent of four adults. The viper is poisonous and injects poison into its prey and enemies. One of the snakes' biggest predators is the snake eagle that kills to feed its young.
Wolves have incredible hearing, sight and smell. They also have a perfect sense of direction. In the winter, their coats turn into thick fur to protect them from the weather. Their typical prey is fast and it is sometimes a group effort to catch food. There is a misconception that wolves attack humans, but the truth is often humans attack first and the wolves must defend themselves.

Look to the Stars With Kentucky SkyTalks
By Ellie Wnek
For the most up-to-date schedule, visit https://pa.as.uky.edu/skytalk
You're invited to learn about celestial objects and experience stargazing through a powerful telescope with Kentucky SkyTalks this fall semester.
The University of Kentucky Department of Physics and Astronomy and the MacAdam Student Observatory presents Kentucky SkyTalks as part of an ongoing outreach series. Each SkyTalk starts with a 40-minute presentation about astronomy followed by an opportunity to visit the observatory across the street. These presentations are free and open to the public. Visits to the observatory are weather dependent. SkyTalks begin at 7 p.m., in Room 155 Chemistry-Physics Building.
UK graduate student Amber Moore is lined up to speak at the SkyTalks as well as UK Physics and Astronomy Professor Gary Ferland. Moore will present "Supernovae: Discovery, Death, and Explosions" Thursday, Nov. 8. Ferland will present "The Star of Bethlehem" Thursday, Dec. 13.
"I believe that everyone has an innate curiosity about the universe," said Tim Knauer, manager of MacAdam Student Observatory. "For some people that curiosity can be satisfied by learning about astronomy and for others looking through a telescope. We provide both for our patrons. Additionally, it is important for the community and Commonwealth that support us to take part in the experience.
"For students, it's a far more personal and visceral experience to actually see things with their own eyes. For example, Hubble Space Telescope images are superior in every way to the views possible from Central Kentucky. Yet, I've been told by students that seeing Saturn for the first time for themselves is a life changing event."
Since the opening of UK's MacAdam Student Observatory in 2008, the observatory has served UK students and astronomy enthusiasts of every age and experience level throughout Kentucky. Located atop Parking Structure #2 on the center of UK's campus, its dome houses a high-quality 20-inch reflecting telescope and a variety of state-of-the-art optical instruments.
The first SkyTalk was hosted Nov. 12, 2009. Since that inaugural presentation, SkyTalks have covered a range of topics from black holes to planets to galaxies and stars. In April 2016, Pamela Marcum gave a presentation on Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy, which is a partnership between the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Prior to the August 2017 eclipse, UK Professor of Physics and Astronomy Tom Troland spoke about the total solar eclipse.


Copyrights arise automatically when an original work is created. Copyrights protect "original works of authorship," which include paintings, illustrations, sculpture, photographs, books, articles, poems, movies, songs, recordings, logo designs, website content, software code, and the like. The creator of the work automatically obtains copyrights in the work and is immediately entitled to protection. Copyrights grant the owner the exclusive right to reproduce and distribute copies of the work, prepare derivative works, and perform, display, and broadcast the work publicly. Copyright ownership entitles the owner to authorize others to exercise any of these exclusive rights as well.
But if these rights arise automatically, why would anyone consider undertaking additional steps—and expense—to register the copyrights with the U.S. Copyright Office?
The answer is simple: Registration greatly enhances the value of the copyrights. There are several ways registration enhances the copyrights' value.
Registering copyrights creates a public record of copyright ownership. Ownership is often at issue in disputes over copyrights. Even if an alleged infringer does not claim to be the creator, the copyright owner has the burden to prove that it is, in fact, the valid owner of the copyrights in order to prevail on a claim of copyright infringement.
The record may also be a helpful defensive mechanism where a would-be infringer—who is sophisticated enough to check copyright registrations—is considering using the content without permission. A public record demonstrating a claim to copyrights will go a long way to demonstrate ownership in the event such ownership is challenged in the future.
In fact, courts have held that registration before, or within five years of, publication of the work establishes prima facie evidence of the validity of the copyrights and the facts stated in the registration certificate—which facts include the identity of the copyright owner. This means ownership of the copyright is presumed, and anyone seeking to challenge ownership will have the burden to demonstrate otherwise. This presumption can be particularly valuable when an infringer is causing serious, irreparable harm and the copyright owner needs an immediate court order directing the alleged infringer to stop its unlawful actions.
Perhaps the most valuable benefit of registering copyrights is the ability to file a lawsuit for copyright infringement. In most jurisdictions, a copyright owner cannot file a lawsuit to enforce/protect its copyrights until the U.S. Copyright Office has issued a registration. The Copyright Office generally takes between three-to-six months to issue a registration after an application is filed, though it can sometimes take longer. Although expedited consideration can be requested (at far more cost), any additional time—particularly in instances where the infringer is causing serious harm—can be extremely costly.
Most attorneys know of the registration requirement before bringing suit for copyright infringement. Therefore, registration provides additional credibility when/if the copyright owner is forced to serve a cease-and-desist letter on an alleged infringer. A copyright owner who can file an immediate lawsuit is in a far stronger position than one who must wait several months to follow through on a threat. Plus, as indicated below, registration before infringement can provide significant financial benefits should someone subsequently infringe the copyrights.
When copyrights are registered prior to infringement (or within three months after publication of the work), a copyright owner becomes eligible for an award of statutory damages. This may be extremely valuable because proving damages in a case of copyright infringement can often be a difficult task. An award of statutory damages allows the copyright owner to recover a certain amount for each work infringed, notwithstanding the owner's ability to prove actual damages. Eligibility for this additional measure of damages may provide the leverage necessary to conclude a lawsuit early, before significant expense is incurred in litigation.
Registration during this same period also qualifies a copyright owner to seek an award of attorney fees and costs of suit.
The owner of registered copyrights is eligible to participate in a U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") program, wherein CBP will seize and detain imported goods that violate intellectual property rights in the United States. Registration is required to participate in this program.
Although copyrights arise automatically upon creation of an original work of authorship, registering the copyrights with the U.S. Copyright Office can greatly enhance their value. Registration provides a public record of ownership. It can even create a presumption of ownership, which is valuable when enforcing the copyrights in litigation. Registration may be necessary to file a lawsuit for copyright infringement. Registration makes the copyright owner eligible for statutory damages, attorney fees, and costs of suit. Registration entitles the copyright owner to work with U.S. Customs and Border Patrol to detain and seize imported goods that violate the owner's rights. And registering copyrights is relatively inexpensive.
Copyright owners should seriously consider registering copyrights when the work at issue has market value. Registration is particularly advisable when a work is important to business operations or other profit-seeking activities.
 The Ninth Circuit (which covers Arizona, Alaska, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington) presently allows a lawsuit to be filed once a copyright application is pending—even before registration issues. However, copyright owners that reside in the Ninth Circuit may still be forced to file suit in another jurisdiction depending on the nature and location of the infringement.

Lady Scoopers fall to RC Christian 53-40
RAPID CITY — The Sturgis Brown Lady Scoopers fell, 53-40, to the Rapid City Christian Lady Comets Tuesday, at the Hart Ranch complex, in Rapid City.
"Again, this is a tale of two halves, we get so tired, so quick in the first quarter and then we lose our defensive discipline," said Jordan Proefrock, Sturgis Brown's head basketball coach. "It is not like we don't play a bad team. When we expose our weakness, it hurts. We had a better second half, better rebounding, better ball handling, played with more energy and much better defense."
The first quarter opened with Rapid City Christians Sarah Enos draining a long three, followed by a 3-pointer from Sawyer Dennis, of Sturgis Brown, tying the game at 3-3.
The score at the end of the first quarter had the Lady Comets in the lead 17-11.
Rapid City Christian would outscore Sturgis Brown, 14-4 in the second quarter to lead 31-15 at the half.
The Lady Scoopers struggled in the third quarter, scoring only eight points, while Olivia Kieffer scored 10 points and Enos chipped in eight points to give the Lady Comets a 52-23 lead after three quarters.
Sturgis Brown held the Rapid City Christian to one point in the fourth, and the Lady Scoopers showed a lot of energy and they had six players combine for 17 points, but it was to little, little to late, falling to Lady Comets 53-40.
Proefrock gave praise for Rapid City Christian's Olivia Kieffer, who scored 17 points for the Lady Comets.
"She is a great player, a junior commit to USD and she has all of the tools, and every team we play seems to have a really good player and they change the tone of the game," Proefrock said.
Joe Kieffer, Rapid City Christian's head basketball coach, called the win a team effort.
"Tonight was very much a team effort. We had a lot of people that knocked down shots besides Olivia (Kieffer), they went to a box on her early in the second half, and some of our other players stepped up and hit some shots tonight and our eighth grader," said Kieffer. "Hayden Thorton got to the basket for a few layups and that really helps us a lot, and Sara (Enos) hit shots tonight. It was a big game for her with 14 points."
Leading the scoring for the Lady Scoopers was Kaylee Whatley with 12 points, followed by Reese Ludwick with nine points. The Scoopers shot 16 of 45 for 35%, had 14 turnovers and 21 rebounds.
"Kaylee (Whatley) is capable of scoring 20 points every game, but sometimes she gets her confidence rattled and shies away from taking over, but she definitely has the ability," said Proefrock.
The Lady Comets were led by Kieffer with 17 points, Enos with 14 points, and Hayden Thorton with 13 points. Rapid City Christian shot 21 of 45 for 47%.
They had nine turnovers, and had 12 rebounds.
Sturgis Brown is now 2-7 on the season, and will travel Thursday to Rapid City, to take on the Rapid City Central Cobblers.

With David Chiverton's cooperation, the FBI and prosecutor Ed Stamm may be able to build an even stronger case against other city officials suspected of shaking down local businesses for cash.
Garvin said Chiverton, a one-time unsuccessful Miami commission candidate, should have "simply quit his job" rather than succumb to the pressure, but he needed to keep his $123,500-a-year salary as city manager.
For the past two years, Chiverton joined with Santiago, Harris, Corleon Taylor, the son of Mayor Myra Taylor, and powerful City Hall lobbyist Dante Starks in a widening scheme to enrich themselves by demanding "payments and other things of value" from Opa-locka businesses, according to the government's case.
Santiago, 53, identified as "Public Official A" in the federal documents, shared in the illegal dollars with Chiverton while directing local business owners to deliver money to him.
Chiverton obtained "illegal payments" from three business owners who worked undercover, carrying concealed recording devices into the meetings. Although not identified, two of the informants told the Miami Herald that they managed to capture video of the bribes involving Santiago, Chiverton, Harris, Starks and Corleon Taylor.
With Chiverton's cooperation, the FBI and prosecutor Ed Stamm may be able to build an even stronger case against other city officials suspected of shaking down local businesses for cash.
Just four months ago, Chiverton, still in office at the time, pledged to the city commission during a meeting that he could balance the troubled budget. However, with the city facing staggering debts in the millions, the state oversight board appointed by the governor took over the reins of Opa-locka's finances in June.


I recently changed my motor in my 05 350z. And now my motor won't turn over. I don't hear the starter even trying to turn. Another thing is that the wire harness that was stock doesn't fit to the starter, so I bought a starter extension wire and hooked that up from the alternator harness to the starter. The car was throwing codes p1122. I changed the throttle body sensor plug from the motor I took out because I know that one was working. But I'm not sure what it could be . Any help???

I suppose it's time for a little foster care update on this blog. It took a dramatic turn when Judah entered this world and the focus shifted promptly to him and his health, and to our survival as a family, sustained by prayers of those around us.
We need prayer again. B has court this coming Monday.
I cannot write specifics, of course. So, we ask for your prayers covering her and our family, and that God's perfect will be done in her life. Whatever that looks like.
I remember clearly almost a year ago getting that first phone call. A little girl. 7 months. Would we take her?
We held hands, prayed, and said, "Yes!" Even though the world would eventually tell us how crazy we were. For we knew just 2 days prior, that God was knitting together a little one made in His image.
We knew it would be hard to both be pregnant AND foster, but we went full on ahead, knowing God would work out the details. I don't think we realized HOW pushed to the limit we would be, but it was worth it. Every deep moment chasing deep moment.
I remember when God breathed to my soul this verse for B.
For so long, I thought that meant she would be MINE. A mini-promise entailing God's chosen child for our family. But I was wrong. Throughout this journey, I discovered the reverse to be true. She was not MINE, but His. HIS promise over B, that she was His BELOVED. He was taking care of B. He had bigger plans than what I could dream for her.
The rush of the past 4 months, being in and out of the hospital with Judah, there were so many times when I just didn't think we could keep fostering our precious B, a little one we didn't want to be tossed around in the system, a little one we loved like our own! Time and time again, God allowed people to step up to help. And on one occasion, then many thereafter, Hart's cousins kept B for us when we needed them.
They fell in love head over heels with this sweet girl.
In the same moment where I knew I wanted God's best for one that I knew was His beloved, I knew that puzzle pieces were beginning to form where B was fitting perfectly with our extended family.
While we have continued fostering her through this "storm" of life, we could not have done it without Hart's family stepping up, saying, "YES!" to this unique and beautiful B!
Monday is huge. Our family will stand before a judge and ask that he allow B to become a part of our extended family forever. Truly the best of both worlds for her and our family! We would get to be a huge part of her life. She would still be a part of our family at large, and we could watch her grow up, still see her for Holidays, birthdays, etc! She would be truly, deeply loved! I know that full well!
We don't know what will happen. But, we can pray. We can ask that God works mightily in this little girl's life. That she gets a beautiful family that cares for her best interest! A place she can live life to the fullest! Hart's cousin's home is that! We want her there! The place she truly would be the happiest!
As a mother, a foster mama, I know, none of these children (bio or foster) are MINE, but His. I know that when we said, "Yes!" It meant we would grow. We would learn a ton about ourselves! As seasons of life change, we know that sometimes it's not always how we pictured it, that through the storms, we are refined. We are changed for the better, and we come out more like Jesus than ever before.
B's story is beautiful in Christ and we know God is writing a beautiful ending! Please lift her up in prayer!

George Randolph Scott, dit Randolph Scott, est un acteur et producteur américain né le  et mort le  à Beverly Hills (Californie).

Biographie
Né dans une riche famille de Virginie, il est repéré par le producteur Howard Hughes sur un terrain de golf et débute par des comédies romantiques dans les années 1930.

Avec son visage buriné et sa nonchalance, Randolph Scott fut ensuite l'une des incarnations du héros de western et devint très populaire auprès du public dans les années 1950, notamment grâce à ses collaborations avec les réalisateurs André de Toth (Le Cavalier de la mort, Les Massacreurs du Kansas) et Budd Boetticher (Sept hommes à abattre, L'Homme de l'Arizona, Comanche Station).

Les sept collaborations cinématographiques qui se déroulèrent de 1956 et 1960, entre le réalisateur Budd Boetticher et l'acteur Randolph Scott, sont appelées « cycle Ranown », du nom de la société Ranown Pictures qui produisit cinq de ces sept films.

Époux d'une riche héritière et producteur avisé, Scott fut l'un des hommes les plus riches de Hollywood lorsqu'il décida de mettre un terme à sa carrière en 1962 après Coups de feu dans la Sierra de Sam Peckinpah.

Vie privée
Scott épouse en 1936 l'héritière  Marion du Pont (1894-1983), fille de William du Pont Sr. et sœur de l'éminent banquier  William du Pont Jr. Leur mariage resté sans enfant dure jusqu'en 1939.

En 1944, l'acteur se remarie avec Patricia Stillman qui est sa cadette de 21 ans. Ils adoptèrent deux enfants, Sandra et Christopher.

Durant sa vie, Scott a très jalousement caché sa vie privée, tenant à vivre en dehors du radar des médias : les rumeurs lui prêtèrent pourtant une attirance pour les hommes. De plus, le code Hays veillait à censurer les comportements déviants à Hollywood.

Dans la vie, l'acteur était très ami avec Fred Astaire et Cary Grant, l'acteur fétiche d'Alfred Hitchcock. Il rencontra Grant durant le tournage de Hot Saturday en 1932 et rapidement après, pour économiser leurs salaires alors encore modestes, selon un biographe, ils partagèrent une maison de plage à Malibu (surnommée Bachelor Hall, soit « la maison des Célibataires »). La première épouse de Cary Grant, Virginia Cherrill, s'installa même avec eux à son mariage, en 1934. Leur colocation dura presque 12 ans, jusqu'en 1944 (date du mariage de Scott avec Patricia Stillman) et suscita les gros titres durant des années, soupçonnant les deux acteurs de vivre une passion secrète. Christopher, le fils adoptif de Scott, démentit ces rumeurs. Budd Boetticher, qui dirigea Scott dans sept films entre 1956 et 1960, les qualifia de "foutaises". Toutefois, dans ses mémoires, le journaliste de mode Richard Blackwell, qui a vécu quelques mois auprès de Grant et Scott, les décrit comme . Les deux acteurs restèrent amis toute leur vie.

Randolph Scott est enterré au cimetière Elmwood à Charlotte (Caroline du Nord), aux côtés de sa seconde épouse Patricia décédée en 2004 à 85 ans.

Cloud Computing Emerging as a Panacea for every Business Qualm
By Niraj Kaushik, Vice President, Applications Business, Oracle India.
In your view, what are the top three concerns of enterprise CIOs about cloud technologies and solutions?
CIOs have ranked security, privacy and regulatory compliance as their top concerns around adoption of cloud computing technology and solutions. They often have lingering concerns in a number of areas including security policy compliance, interoperability, and portability.
According to a survey conducted by Unisphere Research among IT and data managers and professionals with the Independent Oracle Users Group (IOUG) members, security issues continue to be a concern with the use of public cloud and online application services, making private clouds a more attractive option to enterprises. As per the survey, private cloud adoption has been on a rise as they offer the same flexibility and incremental cost advantages to end users as public clouds, but with less perceived risk and greater assurances of security and accountability. 43% of respondents claimed security to be the driving factor for seeking a private cloud formation versus that of a public service. The survey also highlighted, adoption of private cloud solutions for IT workload processing or infrastructure clearly outpaced the use of public platform service providers.
Cloud and compliance are often treated as opposing forces. While cloud encourages dynamism, compliance enforces caution and control. Data breach investigations have shown that security controls must be multi-layered to protect against threats that range from account misuse to SQL injection attacks. In addition, the ever changing regulatory landscape and renewed focus on privacy demonstrates the need for solutions to be transparent and cost effective to deploy.
Which business functions would benefit from Cloud?
Cloud computing has been and continues to be adopted by enterprises across industries in many different ways. It represents a fantastic opportunity for technology companies to help customers simplify IT. Cloud has been seeing a lot of demand across sectors. Industries like telecom, BFSI, retail, education, healthcare and government are increasingly turning to the cloud to simplify IT. The demand for public cloud has recently shown an increase in the mobile and broadband sectors; pharmacy, manufacturing, e-commerce, retail and travel were the early adopters of public cloud. These include both the SMBs as well as larger enterprises.
All business applications can be made available on premise i.e at the customer's site or in a hosted environment also known as the SaaS model. All Oracle applications are available to customers in both models, however, increasingly we have seen the Saas adoption model being more prevalent in the CRM business applications space. Companies are increasingly investing in CRM in a Saas model and this is because it helps organizations lower cost, offers speed and ease of implementation, offers a single instance for a global or nationwide deployment and involves hassle free usage.
What customer demands and business trends will drive changes in Cloud adoption?
Recent surveys show that the top two benefits of cloud computing are speed and cost. Through self-service access to an available pool of computing resources, users can be up and running in minutes instead of weeks or months. Making adjustments to computing capacity is also fast, thanks to elastically, scalable grid architecture. Since cloud computing is a pay-per-use model, operates at a high scale and is highly automated, the cost and efficiency of cloud computing is very compelling as well.
What trends do you see in the evolution of cloud computing?
SMBs are expected to adopt public cloud services owing to lower costs involved, while private cloud computing is anticipated to see stronger traction with larger companies, which is not surprising, since many of these organizations already have extensive investments in expansive IT infrastructures.
Companies in the financial sector are also adopting cloud computing for specific workloads. In particular these companies tend to have large teams of developers, and thus benefit from moving traditional development and test environments, which are usually underutilized, to cloud-based models, which improve agility and efficiency. Large financial institutions are mostly building their own private development and test clouds, although some are also exploring the benefits of using public clouds for such purpose.
According to the survey conducted by Unisphere Research among IT and data managers and professionals with the Independent Oracle Users Group (IOUG), private cloud formations are growing in many companies, often outpacing adoption of public cloud services. As per the same survey, companies are packaging and virtualizing their own IT assets into cloud-like services to offer across various departments and divisions, and even to outside partners. These 'private clouds' offer the same flexibility and incremental cost advantages to end users as public clouds, but with less perceived risk and greater assurances of security and accountability.
Furthermore, security issues continue to be a concern with use of public cloud and online application services, making private clouds a more attractive option to enterprises. The survey also highlighted, adoption of private cloud solutions for IT workload processing or infrastructure clearly outpaced the use of public platform service providers.
Economics, security, and performance are big topics in the cloud, your thoughts?
Answer: Oracle is committed to improving cloud security and has been building innovative security solutions which bring industry-leading security functionality and ensure that the cloud environment remains secure for enterprises. Oracle Database provides advanced security products like Database Vault, Audit Vault, Advanced Security Options to ensure security of Data. Oracle Identity and Access Management Suite simplifies the management of user identities and security in an enterprise infrastructure that spans a mixture of private and public cloud services. Using the most complete and best-in-class solutions available from Oracle, enterprises can manage the entire user identity life cycle across all enterprise resources—both within and beyond the firewall.
On the performance side, Oracle remains poised to address needs for extreme performance and mission-critical computing, so that companies can reap the greatest ROI out of their IT investments. Oracle provides complete, integrated and optimized systems which greatly reduce the TCO for the customer. As Oracle provides hardware and software technologies, customers can expect clean and elegant solutions which are more tightly engineered to reduce costs and boost performance.
How has Oracle India been doing in comparison with the operations in other countries?
Oracle has been operating in India for nearly 20 years. We have grown phenomenally. Today, we employ over 31000 professionals in India comprising our sales, support (including global support), R&D and OFSS organizations. It's one of the largest MNC IT employers in the country. In fact, we have also recently announced that we would be expanding our cloud sales staff in the country. Our R&D workforce alone accounts for one-third of Oracle's global R&D workforce outside the US. The team works on cutting edge technologies that are powering Fortune 500 companies and India's successful organizations – be they large or midsize, in every industry. We've been able to attract top talent to work in our development centers, be part of a global successful R&D organization. So, certainly there is confidence in India and a clear plan to grow the market. This is the reason why we are having the Oracle CloudWorld in India for the third time and this time in Mumbai. It is a demonstration of our commitment to this market. It is a great platform for internal and external stakeholders to come together and share insights on what has worked for them.
The growing Indian economy and new business avenues to grow the business – be it mobile, e-commerce, green data centers etc are also driving growth for information technology in the country. APAC is one of the high growth markets for Oracle globally, and India plays a significant role in this region – both for R&D and business opportunities.

It is essential before a player or group of players engages the enemy, they have planned ahead through many calculations, have foreseen many outcomes based on those calculations, and have determined the best course of action for any action made by the enemy. The more time spent planning, the swifter the victory in any MMO battle.
Players: Players should study tactics used in MMOs, and guilds should provide training and guides to teach players on common tactics essential to their chosen MMO. A guild composed of members who are fully trained on tactics and strategy is a deadly and powerful guild indeed.

Please add a comment at the end of this page when you have registered for the Agile Coach Camp so that other attendees can see who they will meet at the camp.
Woohoo – Just successfully registered for Agile Coach Camp 2013!
Since round about 4 years I'm convinced of agile methods, especially Scrum. I brought both our software development teams and the internal teams (it, back office) to using Scrum and Kanban.
And in the last one and a half year we established an Agile Organisation process (transition?) run in a kind of scrum framework.
There are a lot of things, that bother me and I want to get new input and impulses from. One is the area of conflict between agile teams and waterfall-driven big concerns. Another one is limits of self organization – When do teams needs decisions from outside to remain flexible / agile.
I want to talk about our scrum driven agile organization and discuss the problem of self-recruited teams with changing team members.

How to Trademark a Clothing Label

How to Get a Trademark for a Comic Book Superhero Character

How to Obtain a Trademark for a Food Recipe
How to Protect an Artwork Trademark
How to Make a Logo a Registered Trademark
A clothing label builds its reputation based on its name, logo and designs. The clothing label must choose a name that will easily become a recognizable trademark. Both the name and logo function as trademarks to identify the clothing label's products and distinguish them from those offered by other clothing labels. The name and logo often work together, as we often see with top fashion designer brands and labels. A strong name and logo need to be protected from both trademark infringement and being diluted. Both federal and state registration provide trademark protections.
Choose a name for the clothing label. Compile a list of other clothing label names from trade shows and industry directories. Compare your name to other clothing labels. Rule out any names that are too similar to any other label names.
Read More: Do I Need to Trademark My Clothing Lines?
Research all business names online. Search state and federal trademark registration databases for similar names. Make a list of similar names and registered trademark names. Survey prospective consumers to determine if they might be confused between your business name and other similar names.
Adopt your unique clothing label name and logo. Avoid generic, merely descriptive surnames or regional names. Use your label name to create a stylized mark. A stylized mark includes a select type of font, size and color. Create a unique logo as a complement to the name.
Place the clothing label name and logo on the clothing products. Create product samples, catalogs and web pages. Offer the products for commercial trade across a wide geographical range. Sell the products over the Internet for the widest geographic distribution. Use of the mark in commerce creates "common law" trademark rights prior to registration.
Register the name and logo as trademarks at the state level. Complete a state registration application in each state where the trademarks will be heavily used. Submit the applications online or in person. The online registration may provide an electronic registration confirmation and email notifications.
Register the name and logo as trademarks at the federal level. Complete separate federal trademark registration applications for the name and the logo with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Describe the stylized marks and include design sketches with the application.
Submit the application online or by mail. Provide a sample of the mark as associated with the product. Include a specimen for each type of good offered. Sign a sworn affidavit of ownership rights and pay the applicable filing fee.
Protect the label name and logo from unauthorized use and trademark infringement. Continuously use the marks on the goods and offer them for sale in commerce to prevent another label from adopting your mark during a hiatus. Renew your trademarks every 10 years.
Protect your mark from being diluted and overused. Once society commonly uses a mark to describe many products from various labels, it no longer qualifies for trademark registration or protection.
File your trademark registration applications through an online legal document service to reduce logistical challenges inherent in filing numerous applications.

I know you. I've known you for years, maybe even decades and you are a good person. I know because I've seen you with friends and strangers, as a parent or teacher, or as a volunteer and a caregiver. I know that you are kind, considerate, intelligent, compassionate and care about the environment and the world. I know that you would never harm someone on purpose and you believe in something greater than yourself. If asked, you would do anything for a friend. And yet..
And yet you voted for Trump. And even if you don't agree with all of his antics, you decided that he should lead our country. You may have decided to turn off the news because you believe it isn't true. You may have 'unfollowed' me because I am posting things that offend you and question your moral and intellectual judgement. You may have decided that politics just isn't for you, that the news is toxic to your health and friendships, or that what you hear can't possibly be true. You are sitting by watching our country suffer because of your choice, but to admit that it is being caused by Trump and that you made a mistake is too much. Or you are closing your eyes. You made the choice to support him because of economic reasons, because you believed the lies told about Clinton and because you refused to see the truth about Trump even when he told you who he was with his own mouth.
You are loving and have a good heart, so yes, I can't understand.
We can't talk politics any more because the man leading our country is vile and those who still support him are in too deep and questioning their decision is suggesting that they too share his ideas. When you have a kind heart, the thought that you helped to make a horrible man our leader rocks your world.
You have a kind heart… but your man is flaming the fire of hate in our country, your man is wreaking havoc on our reputation in the world, your man is doing more to ruin our country and what we hold dear than any other president EVER. In his name, with the climate HE created, more atrocities have been done in our country and by our country.
And yet, you share his lies on FB, you argue against those who criticize his methods and words, you refuse to question his policies, you ignore what you don't want to see, and you turn away from the truth of what he is doing.

Mother Earth guidance
Even before the Coronavirus came to me to pass on his message, I was contemplating Mother Earth guidance.
It was the very beginning of the whole situation when they were considering closing schools. I was afraid. It reminded me of all the old stories that I know so well. Beginnings of totalitarianism. All the limitations that resulted in life losing all its essence.
The moments we as a society were standing at the crossroads and chose the road that led to painful experiences, falls and ends of civilizations.
I was paralysed by that fear. Even though I was calming myself down with logical arguments that there was nothing wrong, that I was safe, my body was overcome with feelings of despair and sorrow – at all those vain attempts and ends. "No, no, no! Not again! It was supposed to be different this time," I wanted to scream.
In the meantime, the Coronavirus was already doing his merciful service and showed me my routine, maybe covered in dust but still controlling my life.
When I overcame my fear, I got in contact with Mother Earth.
"I hope you won't abandon me this time."
"I hope you won't abandon me this time." She told me right away.
Me? Abandon her? I came to ask her for help, right? Great Mother, a magical, wise being. So what the heck, me abandoning her!
And then she showed me.
All the coronavirus situation isn't an error in the Universe. It's not a thing that shouldn't be happening. And above all, it's not evil happening to us, poor people.
We are active parts of all this!
The situation is not happening to us. We are its co-creators.
It is an answer to our longing for change. Only beyond our imagination. None of those who meditate and pray for world peace and global change had ever thought that necessary slowing down and getting inside of each of us would happen via quarantine, borders closed and free movement restrictions. We all were sort of hoping for the romantic version of us finally twigging, making the right choices, making the best steps for ourselves, humanity and the planet. Well, that's the sense of humour the Universe has. It can always surprise you when delivering your wish fulfilled.
And this collides with reality in which it's easy to believe that what is happening right now is wrong. That it should be different. And this is how we dissociate from the events and they are "just happening" to us. However, we are still an active part of the situation!
By handling it, coping with it, we influence and change every second.
I asked Mother Earth what it means. How to support her. How not to abandon her this time.
"It is the responsibility of each of you to stand in your power. Your life and lives of others depend on it now."
This is a vital message. How to support the course of the demanding situation so that it passes off as peacefully as possible?
How to support the course of the demanding situation so that it passes off as peacefully as possible?
Stand in your strength.
How to help Mother Earth deal with coronavirus?
What to do for humankind to handle it?
How to approach yourself in the given situation?
It's basically the answer to each question concerning the situation that crosses our mind.
All we need is this tiny little thing which costs nothing and everyone can do it – and a change occurs. On a personal as well as planetary level.
The thing is that we often don't even know what our strength actually is, not to mention how to get in touch with it.
I asked Mother Earth how to do it. In an available, easy and clear way. So that anyone, anytime and anywhere can do it. She offered me several options:
Visualize entering the eye of a tornado, the center of a storm.
It reminded me a lot of the clip of this song:
Přehráním videa souhlasíte se zásadami ochrany osobních údajů YouTube.

Dance swaying your hips in kundalini moves (as if the sacral bone was a shovel scooping sand by moving forward). Along with the moves of the pelvis, allow the breath travel from your feet all the way up to your pelvis and belly button. Move your arms upwards following your breath.
Or we can connect to the heartbeat of Mother Earth. I feel it when I go inside and with intention I reach her heart, her core.
I asked Mother Earth if she is suffering.
"Suffering is a human thing. It's your choice, up to each of you. It comes in moments of conflicts between your ideas and reality," she replied.
I asked about the role of Coronavirus.
"Coronavirus is a kind help in fulfilling intentions you people have."
What are the steps to go through apparent crisis successfully?
"Live every moment of your life through every cell of your body."
"Vivacity in the body. Each cell is full of life all the time. Bring life to every situation. That's how you let the essence of life taste and feel the experience. This is possible only when you are open and enjoy every situation."
"Suffering closes everything because it says: 'It's wrong as it is.'"
"Acceptance opens up opportunity to go through even tough moments with love and consciousness."
"Your aim isn't to go through it quickly and be done, complete the task. You aim is to go through it being mindful in the moment."
"Being mindful you are connected to the Earth and the Universe. Go through it with this connection. No matter what happens, don't lose this connection."
What about the fears that come up and grip us?
"THERE IS MORE TO THE LIFE THAN FIGHT FOR LIFE!"
"There is deep global healing of the rooted fight for life feeling going on right now. You absorbed it from your family and collective consciousness. From your roots. And that's what forces you to act. To deliver. To the mind. To run away from yourself. I'm running for life mode. To save yourself. You escape to television, money, performance."
"It's survival instinct. Dating several generations back and as old as the mankind at the same time. The reason why people have been chased like animals in consumerism and at work."
"Fear closes you, the body gets stiff, it's impossible to enjoy life. However, you can enjoy fear. Enjoy the moment of fear. Dive deep inside the feeling, be present. Feel it and respect it. The fear. Let it pass through.
"Your purpose is not to sort it out or to save yourself. There is nothing to be saved from as it is but your illusion because there is nothing wrong. Your purpose is not to run away or hide, either. Your purpose is to go through it and let it pass through you, let it go, with respect."
"If Life tastes the experience through you, it can leave. If you remain open even if afraid, fear will pass through and vanish. You don't need any action. Just feel yourself, be with yourself."
"There is more to the life than fight for life. Therefore it is time to get rid of this despair that takes all your real sources away from you."
"Since in a fight your sources life magic or Mother Earth guidance aren't available to you. All this is only available when you relax."
"What are we supposed to do? Especially when we are shocked and don't know which way to turn?"
"I will open a new door for you soon. Believe."
"You need to go through the gate of fear. Let go of helplessness and shortage."
"Face yourself and mortality."
"Go through the gate of discomfort and running away from yourself."
"Be aware that I will soon open a new door for you."
What can we as humankind do, apart from practicing standing in our strength?
"Don't rush."
"Don't escape to work; don't try to sort it out."
"Allow yourself to stop, exhale, and just feel."
"Allow yourself to feel yourself, your body, a little bee flying by, smoke coming out of a chimney, magic of the moment. How are you feeling?"
"Switch from activity to perception. That's the key to a change."
"I guide everything, your every step. Can you feel my guidance?"
Do you have any message, advice for us?
"Open up to new a way of life you have been longing for for so long. The change won't come without you. It won't come without you living it."

Diamonds are a pleasure to own. However, there are some situations in which is more important to sell a diamond than to keep it. Such as when that piece of jewelry needs a bigger diamond to accompany it or when you need a few extra bucks. The diamond buyers at Beverly Hills Jewelry Buyers will help you through the process of selling it. There are some key things that they evaluate in order to determine its overall value.
One of the first things the diamond buyers Los Angeles will look at is the size of the diamond. Obviously, bigger carats will bring in a bigger value in terms of resell. But they will make certain the diamond is the number of carats that it is reported to be. This is a relatively easy determination to make and is based on the diamonds measurements.
Cut is another thing that is evaluated by the diamond buyers in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, this does play a role in determining value. Cuts are one of those things that has trends. Some cuts are more popular than others in regard to resale value. Like shoes or clothes, the cut of a diamond will be trendy one day and will be out of style the next. The cut is determined by looking at the diamond itself. Most diamonds are cut in a specific style such as a round cut or a princess cut.
Clarity is something else that diamond buyers Los Angeles will evaluate. This will help determine a value for the diamond. Clarity is defined by the quality of the diamond and how well it reflects light. Minor imperfections will make a diamond look cloudy in that area or reflect the light poorly. It is given a score based on this. That score will go into the evaluation of the diamond's value.
These are the major things any diamond buyer will look at before placing a value on the diamond. But don't worry if your diamond isn't perfect. It still has value and you still can sell it. It is still a diamond and these gems are still among some of the most valuable gems in the world.


Yellow fever has become one of the primary travel panics of 2018 with widespread reporting of the disease outbreak in South America and Africa. Most recently, the outbreak in Brazil has caused a lot of concern, but how much do you need to worry about it and is there anything you can do to protect yourself from it? Here, we're going to look at what you need to know about the South American Yellow Fever Outbreak.
There are currently 47 countries where Yellow Fever outbreaks have been recorded. Though the recent news has focused on outbreaks in Brazil and the rest of South America, 90% of all Yellow Fever cases are recorded in Sub-Saharan Africa. Yellow fever can go on to spread in other countries if someone who has contracted the virus enters it, but because the transmission is caused by mosquitoes, it does not spread easily in countries that don't have them.
Yellow fever is most commonly contracted from mosquitoes. It is typically found in the Aedes mosquito but has been contracted from Haemagogus mosquitoes, too. These insects bite an infected human or monkey which then leads them to infect others by biting them too. Yellow fever does not spread directly from human to human, so areas with mosquitoes hold the greatest risk. These include jungles and densely populated areas with poor water sanitation and still water. There are yellow fever maps of South America and Africa available online that show all the areas where vaccination is currently recommended.
As the name suggests, the first symptom of the virus is a strong fever that appears 3 to 6 days after being bitten. It's accompanied by stomach pains, severe headaches, shivers, nausea, and vomiting–though not all symptoms may be present.
The majority of people who contract the virus recover from this fever, but others go into a more dangerous second phase. Patients become jaundiced, tinting the skin and the whites of the eyes to yellow, leading to the name of the fever. The fever will worsen and bleeding from eyes, nose, mouth, and stomach can occur. In some cases, kidney function can deteriorate. This is the most dangerous phase: 50% of patients who enter it die within in 10-14 days, while the other 50% recover without organ damage.
Yellow fever can be difficult to diagnose because it shares symptoms with several other diseases, from the early stages representing the flu, to the later stages looking similar to malaria, dengue fever, and the Zika virus. All of these diseases are spread by mosquitoes, particularly the Aedes mosquito. If you're concerned you have contracted the virus, you should immediately seek medical attention. A blood test can be done to determine if you have contracted the illness.
Yellow fever does not have a specific treatment once it has been contracted. There is no cure if you get it, but it has been shown that hydration and treatment of the fever and its accompanying bacterial infections can increase survival rates in those who progress to the second stage of the disease. While there is no precise treatment once you have contracted the disease, there is a vaccine available that has a protective success rate of over 99% that you can get before going to a country with a yellow fever outbreak.
How to prevent yellow fever?
The single most effective way of stopping yourself from contracting yellow fever is to get the vaccination. A single dose provides lifelong immunity, while a fractioned dose can offer a year's protection. There are other precautions you should take when traveling too. Using repellent sprays, bug nets and staying away from areas with dirty or stagnant water can help you avoid mosquito bites. Remember, mosquitoes are responsible for transmitting multiple blood-borne diseases and causing bacterial infections, not just yellow fever.
The yellow fever vaccine has been available for decades and is widely used by those traveling to Brazil and South America. Try to get your vaccination at least ten days before entering the country, as it has a 90% successful inoculation rate in ten days and a 99+% effectiveness after thirty days. As mentioned, the vaccine can provide lifelong immunity, with only minimal side effects like low-grade fevers, headaches, and muscle aches. Everyone older than 9 months should be vaccinated if travelling to Yellow Fever zones.
While Yellow Fever is serious and can be contracted quite easily, it shouldn't be a concern for most travelers. A safe vaccine should be all you need to enjoy your trip to South America without fear of contracting it.
