Q: ReactJs - trigger click on element with class This is generated element by the plugin
...

I want to click on an element from some other part of the code.
How can I trigger click on this element without using ref on it?

A: Since the element seems to be completely out of a React component's scope, you could try either of the following:

*

*create a React component and use refs

*simply use document.getElementsByClassName() and .click()

Following in the footsteps of ESPN, which recently announced its intention to curtail its 3D programming at the end of the year, the BBC will do the same, though a special celebrating 50 years of Doctor Who will make it under the wire.
Kim Shillinglaw, the BBC's head of 3D, told Radio Times that the UK media giant plans to take a three-year break from 3D programming.
An estimated 1.5 million UK households have 3D TVs. Only about half of those watched Olympics programming in 3D. Other 3D programming has been similarly ignored by viewers.
A November Doctor Who special and a natural history program will and the BBC's current experiment with 3D.

Abortion in Ireland - a Historical Perspective to the 1990's
Date: Mon, 1992-09-14 00:30
Abortion was totally illegal in Ireland under all circumstances until the Supreme Court judgement in the "X" case earlier this year, which seems to permit abortion in the extremely limited case of threatened suicide by the mother. The 1861 Offences against the Persons Act states that any person "performing, attempting and or assisting in an abortion is liable to penal servitude for life". Laws such as this on the statute books of other European countries have been relaxed, liberalised or abolished in the face of the general realisation and acknowledgment that women always and everywhere will exert their right to end an unwanted pregnancy. In Ireland powerful reactionary forces have succeeded in not only preventing the liberalisation of laws here on abortion but have gone much further with a constitutional amendment, the 8th Amendment, and a series of court actions which have outlawed the distribution of information on abortion. Ireland is now the only country in the world that actually bans information on abortion. The offensive by the Pro-Life Amendment Campaign (PLAC) against womens' rights in Ireland is part of a world wide offensive against abortion rights. The upholding of Ireland's information ban by the E.C. Court of Justice places the campaign for abortion rights in Ireland in an international context.

Q: Trying to add nav drawer button to the app bar I'm following this tutorial
I'm stuck at the bit where I'm trying to add the button to the app bar.
When I swipe right, the navigation drawer appears, so thats working.  Its just the button in the bar that I'm having problems with, When I add the v7.widget.Toolbar into the XML under FrameLayout it ruins the layout.
Orginally in my XML I just had a constraint layout, with a Scrollview as a child and inside that a LinearView (vertical).
However I cant get my head around why this isnt working:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- Use DrawerLayout as root container for activity -->
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fitsSystemWindows="true">

    <!-- Container for contents of drawer - use NavigationView to make configuration easier -->
    <android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
        android:id="@+id/nav_view"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
        app:menu="@menu/drawer_view"
        app:headerLayout="@layout/nav_header" />

    <!-- Layout to contain contents of main body of screen (drawer will slide over this) -->
    <FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/content_frame"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" >

        <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/toolbar"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
            android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
            android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.ActionBar" />

        <ScrollView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">

            <LinearLayout
                android:id="@+id/seeds_container"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:layout_marginBottom="8dp"
                android:layout_marginEnd="8dp"
                android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
                android:layout_marginRight="8dp"
                android:layout_marginStart="8dp"
                android:layout_marginTop="16dp"
                android:background="@drawable/customborder"
                android:orientation="vertical"
                app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
                app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
                app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
                app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"></LinearLayout>
        </ScrollView>

    </FrameLayout>

When I run this the top bar just seems to overtake the entire window and the color disappears and the button is not clickable because the LinearLayout is over the top of it.  Where am I going wrong?

A: put NavigationView below FrameLayout.

A: Following on MikeM's comments above,  He said:
FrameLayout will overlap its child Views; i.e., it'll stack them one atop the other in the z-axis. Change the FrameLayout to a vertical LinearLayout, which will lay them out edge to edge. Also, your NavigationView needs to be listed last within the DrawerLayout.
So basically I had change my FrameLayout to Linearlayout and that worked.  Its a bit dissapointing that the Android documentation is like that but what I do.
Thanks, MikeM!

Professional Singer Ilana Martin Shares Some Singing Tips
Featured Article, Music Tips, Musician Profiles, Teachers Resources June 1, 2015June 3, 2015 Making Music
Vocal prodigy ILana Martin began her professional career singing for musicals when she was eight years old. By age 13, she had performed in seven musicals. Her fascination with the human voice began as a child working with her own vocal coach in Los Angeles.
"I love the human voice so much; I love to listen to the sound of a person's voice–their true voice, the potential voice—I'm fascinated by it," she says. "I love tone, I love melody, I love story, I love the interplay between what is on the page and what the student decides to sing."
At age 16 the homeschooled Martin began studying Berklee College of Music, where she gave voice lessons to nonvocal majors—guitarists and songwriters using the Vocal Awareness technique she'd learned from her mentor, Arthur Joseph. Upon graduating at 19 she launched her singing career. "I toured with Barry White, Patti Labelle, Stevie Wonder, and a lot of Motown artists," she explains. "I got to go to 19 countries."
7 THINGS EVERY SINGER NEEDS TO AVOID
About eight years into touring, tired of the party scene and the travel, she was ready to give up that lifestyle. "I hung up my celebrity shoes and said I would persevere with what I also love: teaching," she says.
When she opened her school in Vocal Workout Singing School in New York City she wasn't sure it would be successful, but it didn't take long for her to find out. "From the moment I opened the doors I couldn't sign people up fast enough," she says. "Some of those early students stayed with me for at least 12 years."
Sixteen years into running her own studio, Martin couldn't be happier to get up each morning to do what she loves. She gladly shared a few tips and insights into her methods with Making Music.
Making Music: You website says you are a holistic singing coach, what does this mean?
Martin: Holistic means "according to natural law." We sing more acoustically than traditional methods. My methodology is based on the teaching of the original gospel church that sang relevant acoustic information during slavery times in order to survive. I apply current acoustic knowledge to that and get this beautiful blend of technical savvy and an old time soul sound. It's super fun.
MM: What are some of the classic vocal mistakes that singers who never had any kind of coaching might make?
Martin: One classic mistake is holding notes too long. They are making syrup out of the singing by holding the notes way too long and it doesn't allow them to feel the pulse and feel the backing music and it doesn't allow for the heartbeat of the story. Another mistake is to over-pronounce the ends of your words.
MM: What is vocal workout technique?
Martin: Vocal workout technique is a series of stackable mind-body-spirit warm-ups, methods, and strategies that remake a voice from talented to masterful. Mastery could be described as knobs on a radio control for your voice—you can turn your voice loud anytime, soft anytime, you can sing high, you can sing low, sing fast, sing slow, weave the voice, keep the voice straight, [sing with] vibrato, medium vibrato, how much vibrato would you like? It's complete control over your voice at all times, in all situations.
MM: How can singers develop their own style? What types of characteristics do you look for to help them bring out style and individuality?
Martin: The way that I look at my job is that I've got three things to work on with people. I need to work on technique, which is that control we talked about. The second piece is style, and I call style "vocal DNA." I have an entire methodology around the concept of style. I think of it like you are niching yourself. So it's a predictable thing when you sing a fast song that you should shout and scream near the end, or maybe you'll get quiet and intimate near the end, whatever your style is. Let's say you buy a ticket to a Cher concert, and she sings like Celine Dion all night. You would want your money back. The third thing is improvisation.
MM: What is the best way to warm up for a performance?
Martin: Doing trills is the best way. Trills are used universally by vocal teachers. But, you do it several ways—staccato, legato, and then on a melody, and then you do a series of hums. A hum is the center of every tone. So underneath a-h-h-h-h- is h-m-m-m-m. You want to hum in your very high range in the same energy that you will be using on stage. So, if you are going to do a jazz concert, hum in a jazz energy. If you are about to do an R&B or gospel concert, you want to hum in that energy. Hum in your medium range, low range, and very high range. Then improv sing on one of your most difficult songs, repeating the chorus line with improvisational flexibility. The humming is different than what other vocal teachers might teach.
MM: How important is vocal rest between performances?
Martin: Rest is so very important. Your voice is the last thing that the body repairs before you wake up in the morning—the last priority. So if you get a half-hour less sleep, you didn't get to it yet; you are singing with yesterday's voice. Also, don't clear your throat because it is very violent to the larynx, and don't whisper—that is also bad. Don't speak too much and don't to be at all tired on the days of really challenging singing.
MM: Is there any way recover if you are feeling like you are not rested before your show?
Martin: I've found a way to do mini vocal rests. You can do it lying down on a yoga mat or a towel in your hotel room, in the back of your van, or standing up in the bathroom or the green room behind the stage, but it's ideal to do it lying down. What you want to do is inhale and exhale through the mouth in a diaphragmatic breath. Imagine perfect love, or zen, and every 30 seconds switch to something else. So you are breathing for 30 seconds and then maybe move your hands straight up to the ceiling and you breathe in short breaths.
Then, you come back and breathe with any vowel—h-e-e-e, h-a-a-a, h-i-i-i, or h-o-o-o—moving your legs. You might want to jackknife your legs in the air. That brings the control of the air and the flow of the air into the bigger muscles. The bigger muscles are air pumps of muscles, which are surrounding the diaphragm. Those muscles support the lungs to maintain the steadiness of your air production. And you begin to open up all of those muscles and take all of the energy and the pressure off the throat. We want the throat area to maintain a Zen. So it's like having a powerful boost for your voice because rest is really renewal. Rest isn't so much nothing, but it is a repair or renewal time for our bodies. It's almost like breath yoga; you re-inhabit your body as your full night's sleep would have. It is kind of a staggered rest. It's really powerful.
MM: How important is posture? Could you describe correct singing posture?
Martin: It is essential. Good posture is to stand with conviction, keeping the knees soft and the body bottom-heavy. We want the feet to be rooted. There are two fabulous performers who I think had/have amazing posture. Marvin Gaye had one of the best postures ever, and in the current day, Beyoncé. If you watch her on YouTube you will see what I mean.
MM: Is there anything a singer can do to increase vocal range or is it fixed?
Martin: Every single vocalist that I work, without exception, increases their range one octave at both ends—an extra low octave and an extra high octave. Range can be developed and stretched

A fully comprehensive, multi-functioning site for Milton Keynes Safeguarding Children Board.
Milton Keynes Safeguarding Children Board (MKSCB) is a multi-agency independent statutory partnership Board which agrees how services and professionals in Milton Keynes should work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of children. It ensures the effectiveness of the arrangements made by individual agencies and the wider partnership to safeguard and promote the welfare of children through high support and high challenge.
MKSCB were looking to have a complete overhaul of their website and to consolidate all features and functions (such as Procedures and event booking) with one company to free up resources and be more cost effective. The Board had feedback from users of the old site that there was difficulty with site navigation, accessing training courses, feedback forms and certificates.
Phew recommended a multi-functioning site that consisted of an easy-to-navigate, fully mobile-responsive website complete with an online events booking system and a dedicated site for Procedures. Through having these all built by us, we give the option to link all the different areas together, for example showing relevant upcoming events to someone looking at a certain Procedure.
Through assessing analytics and user reviews of the current site, we were able to draw on our ever-growing knowledge of the Safeguarding community to deliver a new website that met the content and usability needs of visitors and worked towards achieving MKSCB's corporate objectives.
The result for MKSCB was a fully functioning website that contained all the required content, documents and legislation all in one simple yet comprehensive site.
The Google Analytics reports that we set up reveal that the amount of time people are spending on the website has increased. There has also been feedback from users praising the site's functionality and new appearance.
The project has resulted in increased efficiency for the Board; the admin team have noticed a real difference in the ease of being able to direct people straight to an all-inclusive website that can provide them with the information they need. The cost effectiveness has also been noticed across the Board, with annual savings of approximately £14,000 being achieved by combining all functionalities in one, excluding eLearning which they no longer have running.
"Phew have been a great support throughout the process of creating our new website. They were able to work well with people at all different levels and offered a lot of support, patience and understanding… I was very impressed by how easy they made the whole process, using their SCB and SAB knowledge to guide and advise us on the best way to get what we wanted out of the site. The fact we were able to build relationships with each team member working on our project and have face-to-face meetings was such a positive for us, as well as the fact they are local which allowed us to feel like we were giving back into our community".
"Phew offered the simplistic advantage of combining all three functions together with one company, which has proved to be much more cost effective and made a huge difference to our admin team's time efficiency… The whole team have been surprised by the simplicity of WordPress which was made even easier by Phew's training on the system".
"I would definitely recommend working with Phew and have already committed to future projects with them myself".
Helen Craddock, MKSCB Board Manager.

Was There Any Fair Leader Throughout The Course Of History Of Pakistan?
A Brief Look At The Different Leaders of Pakistan
Democracy in Pakistan
1. Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto (1971-77)
2. Pervaiz Musharraf (1999-2008)
In the course of Pakistan's 73-year history, there have been several different attempts radically to change Pakistan by three civilians (one at present) and three military regimes. Yet, they all have not been able to win the nation's hearts, and the new regime has also been seemingly failed. Every single one of them found their governments ingested by the elites. They had hoped to displace and engaged in the same patronage politics as the regimes that they had overthrown. None could find a new mass party staffed by professional politicians and ideologically committed activists rather than local feudal and urban bosses plus their followers. In this post, we shall compare the achievements of different governments of Pakistan to find out: Was there any fair leader throughout Pakistan's history?
General Ayyub Khan and Pervaiz Musharraf were once the military rulers from 1958 to 69 and 1999 to 2008, respectively. Both took Kamal Atta Turk as their role model, the greatest secular modernizing nationalist and founder of the Turkish Republic. General Zia ul Haq, a military ruler from 1977 to 1988, took a very different course trying to unite and develop Pakistan through enforced endurance to a stricter and more stiff form of Islam merged with Pakistani patriotism. Then there was Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, founder of the Pakistani people's party and Pakistan's civilian ruler. In the 1970s, he tried to rally the Pakistani Masters behind him with a program of anti-elitist economic populism mixed with Pakistani nationalism.
Pakistan's young democracy started in 2008 when Pakistan People's Party won the elections. In 2013, it was the first time throughout the history of Pakistan that power was transferred from one Democratic Party to another. And the same thing happened in 2018. Since the inception of Pakistan, everyone has tried to make their tenure impactful in different ways.
Indeed, except for Bhutto none tried seriously to curtail the clans. However, after a short while, Bhutto's PPP too had ceased to be the radical party of its early years and had become dependent on the same old local clans and local patronage.
But here the questions arise: Was there any fair leader throughout the history of Pakistan? Was there any leader who was able to bear the burdens of a suffering country like Pakistan? Indeed, except Quaid e Azam( founder of Pakistan), a couple of these types of leaders might be honest and loyal to Pakistan, but with few imperfections. Following are the two most loved leaders throughout the history of Pakistan.
Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto is the most popular personality in Pakistan's history. It is commonly said that after partition, Pakistan has seen only one leader or loyal man in the shape of Bhutto. ZA Bhutto approved his correct charismatic personality by forcing the dictatorial regime to step back from office with immobilized popular power. Many reforms took place under Bhutto's regime, such as bureaucratic reforms, first and the second phase of land reforms, economic reforms, and Constitution(most significant achievement of his). He also developed strategies to curtail the Army. Because at that time, Army was one of the immense powers in Pakistan, and he wanted them to practice their actual job only. He also contributed to the formation of the Para Military Force against the establishment.
However, along with his many significant contributions that made Pakistan economically stable, he was also one of the people behind East Pakistan's separation. He had made many errors. To preserve his government, he agreed to give up East Pakistan. He did not like opposition parties at all. He was accused many times of suppressing the voice of opposition leaders.
But all in all, he was a great leader in the history of Pakistan. He took many measures to fulfil the given promises and was successful to much extent. But at the same time, parochial elite class and establishment hampered him from practicing his ideas. These prestige-loving classes collaborated against Mr. Bhutto. But he thoroughly succeeded in formulating an independent foreign policy of Pakistan.
During his years in power, Pakistan maintained consistent and profitable policies of liberalization, deregulation and privatization. Financial recovery, institutional reforms and promising administration were Pakistan's established prerogatives. For financial recovery, the government sought a two-pronged policy of securing macro-economic strength and initiating structural reforms for self-sufficient advancement. As a result, the economy had improved at a typical rate of 7% per annum in four years. Its growth reached a record degree of 9% in 2004-2005. Growth of substantial scale manufacturing which was 3.6% during 1999-2000, documented an average boost of 11.31 % per annum from 2000-2007. Foreign Exchange reserves had passed over the US$ 16 billion marks. Per capital, revenue had improved from $526 (1999-2000) to $925 (2006-2007). GDP upswing, which was 3.9% in 1999-2000, grew at an average rate of 6% per annum during the interval from 2000-2007. Total GDP, which was approximately Rs 2,938.4 billion (1998-1999), registered a tremendous spike in 8 years and ranged between Rs 3,826 billion (1999-2000) and Rs 9,970 billion (2006-2007).
But apart from that, like everyone, Musharraf also had come across with failures. Many bad things happened in Musharraf's tenure, the martyrdom of Akbar Bugti and Lal Masjid event, mishandling of Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry case, the proclamation of emergency, and victimization of opponents, the martyrdom of brave Benazir Bhutto and shrewdness of Asif Ali Zardari, etc. These all incidents persuaded Pervez Musharraf to tender his resignation on 18th August 2008 to avoid the impeachment process's humiliation.
However, because of his contributions, the world started to recognize Pakistan as a religiously tolerant and financially stable country. He was the first military ruler in the history of Pakistan who did not impose Martial law. He wanted to shape the country with immense pluralism, equality, freedom and literacy.
From the above facts, it can be concluded that Musharraf was the all-time loyal leader to the country with relatively fewer errors. If it were not for Musharraf, Pakistan would have still been in the shadows of immense economic crisis, no freedom of speech and fake accusers of blasphemy. Along with that, he was a great ambassador of Pakistan. He represented Pakistan in many events. He was famous for his vehement speeches and humor.

Back-to-Back road wins for Bulldog men
Jeremy NelsonMcPherson College Athletics
STERLING— The McPherson College men's basketball team made it back to back road wins this week with a 95-73 shellacking of KCAC foe Sterling College. With the win, the Bulldogs move to 6-3 overall, and 3-2 in conference play. Interestingly, all three of their KCAC wins have come away from the McPherson Sport Center.
The Mac men scored the first bucket of the game, a two pointer by Frederick Watts II, but then the Warriors scored eight unanswered points to take an 8-2 lead. At the 14:26 mark of the opening half, the home team held on to a seven point lead 16-9, but over the next three minutes of action, the Bulldogs went on a 10-3 run to tie the game at 19. The Warriors retook the lead, 21-19, on a pair of free throws, but Mac responded with another spurt, this time an 8-0 run, to take a 27-21 lead.
The Warriors got back to with three points with 7:44 to play in the first half, but that was as close as they got the rest of the half. The Bulldogs closed out the first 20 minutes of action on a 15-4 run to extend their lead at the halftime intermission to 14 points, 44-30. The Bulldogs had a great half offensively, shooting 54 percent from the floor overall, knocking down 6-of-10 from beyond the three-point arc. They were led in the half by Jeffrey Oxford who had eight points.
The Bulldogs carried the momentum into the second half, weathering a couple of runs by the Warriors where they trimmed the lead down to six points, but that is a close as they got. With 13:49 remaining on the clock, the Bulldogs had extended their lead back out to 16 points at 63-47. The lead would hover between 13 and 16 points over the course of the next seven minutes. At the 5:42 mark, the Bulldogs pushed the lead out to 18, 79-61. They reached their largest lead of the game, 23, with 23 seconds left, but a free throw by the Warriors in the closing seconds from former Elyria Christian School standout Tyler Thiessen, made the final margin of victory for the Bulldogs 22, 95-73.
On the offensive end of the floor, the Bulldogs had a trio of players finish the game in double figures, led by Chamaje Barideaux, who led all scorers in the game with 26 points. Barideaux was 9-of-18 from the floor, made 5-of-10 treys, and went 3-of-4 from the charity stripe. He was joined in double figures by Watts who had 13, and Garrett Owen, who came off the bench to chip in 10.
Mac was also stingy on the defensive end of the floor. They held the home team to just over 40 percent shooting from the floor, and 31 percent from deep. They had five blocks on the night, four of them by Grant Owens, and forced the Warriors into 22 turnovers, which they then turned into 28 points on the other end of the floor.
Bulldog head coach, Tim Swartzendruber, liked what he saw against the Warriors saying, "This was a great team win. We had contributions from everyone who played. We had stretches where we were very good defensively as well." He went on to point out that they are still a work in progress, and there are areas they can improve."
"We still need to cut down our turnovers and finish better in the lane," remarked Swartzendruber, "but it was good to see us make some perimeter shots tonight." He wrapped things up by adding, "We have a big challenge on Saturday, and would love to see a nice crowd out cheering us on."
The "big challenge" Swartzendruber mentioned is their match up Saturday with the Southwestern College Moundbuilders. Southwestern is currently undefeated on the season at 9-0 overall, and 5-0 in KCAC play. They have the second leading scorer in the conference in senior guard, Cameron Hunt, who is currently averaging 29.71 ppg, just behind Friends' Jordan Murdock who is at 30.43. Tipoff between the Bulldogs and Moundbuilders is scheduled 5 p.m. following the women's game.

Out of an almost record lending total of $9.445 billion, over two-thirds of the World Bank Group's energy financing for FY14 was concentrated in regions facing the largest energy deficits – Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. It was also another very strong year for Bank Group renewable energy financing with a total of $3.6bn in investments.
Ms George said Bank Group energy financing for low-income (or IDA) countries, at $4.62bn in FY14, was (in absolute terms) the highest ever – double the highest level the Bank Group has previously provided for IDA countries. Grants and credits provided through IDA exceeded total energy lending for middle-income countries, at $2.167bn, for the second year running.
The increase in the Bank Group's renewable energy lending reflected growing demand – particularly from IDA countries. Much of the increase on FY13 renewable energy lending was due to approval of a number of large-scale hydropower projects, but it also represents strong continuing investment in solar, wind and geothermal energy, especially from the IFC, the Bank Group's private sector arm. IFC renewable and energy efficiency lending went from $1bn in 2013 to over $1.4bn in 2014 – with a record 25 percent of this going to wind energy projects.
A considerable proportion of World Bank Group renewable energy financing also went towards building the policies and institutions countries need to manage a sustainable electricity supply as well as the smart transmission and distribution systems that connect people and industry to energy.
A key aspect of World Bank Group energy lending is that it brings in other financing sources. The World Bank mobilized a record amount of over $1bn of private sector finance through guarantees which help to mitigate the risk for potential investors. IFC and MIGA each mobilized a further US$1 billion from third party sources to complement their own investments.
"This year we saw a tipping point for the competitiveness of renewable energy as a commercially viable part of the energy mix, particularly in places like Chile where we financed the largest solar plant in Latin America and in Jordan where we financed the country's first large-scale wind project", said Bernard Sheahan, IFC Global Head of Infrastructure and Natural Resources.
For the fourth year running, there was no lending for "greenfield" coal-fired energy generation. And oil-based generation projects made up a very small fraction of overall lending (at 1.7 percent) – concentrated in Sub-Saharan Africa to meet critical and pressing energy needs where there is no other immediate solution available.


God bless American sock making. This is one proud all mountain sock from "the little mill that could" in Vermont. This Ultra-Light bomber is a simple go-to sock for skiers and riders who know less is more. Over-the-Calf height is ideal for skiing and riding in deep conditions while Ultra-Light Merino Wool provides legendary warmth without the bulk. And since Merino Wool is naturally antimicrobial this sock repels bacteria and odor. If only everything in life was this simple. Still made in Vermont. Guaranteed for life.


Veterinary medicine has changed dramatically in recent years, with an increasing emphasis on advanced and complete care for all types of pets and livestock.
With many veterinary practices making use of MRI systems, advanced surgical techniques and other innovative veterinary procedures, the need for professional veterinary technicians is greater than ever.
Ensuring that all equipment and supplies are kept ready for use by the veterinarian.
Carrying out the initial exam of admitted animals, in order to provide the veterinarian with an overview of their condition.
In cases where animals are admitted with life-threatening injuries, the vet tech may be required to administer first aid in order to stabilize the animal until the veterinarian provides long-term care.
Under the direction of a supervising veterinarian, vet techs may administer medication to animals receiving treatment.
A vet tech will interview the owners of injured or ill animals, in order to obtain information needed by the vet. This often requires interacting with distraught individuals in a caring and professional manner.
As a state with a large farming sector, in addition to many rural and urban animal owners, Arkansas has clear requirements those who wish to become a vet tech must meet.
Students must complete an accredited vet tech program, pass an examination and register with the state in order to become a licensed vet tech.
Vet techs must first complete a veterinary technician program offered by a school that has been accredited by the American Association of Veterinary State Boards (AAVSB). The AAVSB ensures that all accredited schools provide highly qualified instructors and programs for their students. There are a wide variety of AAVSB accredited schools, ranging from community colleges to private vocational schools.
Depending on the nature of the program and the student's schedule, the time required to complete a vet tech program can range from a few months to two years or more. In addition, many schools offer part-time and distance learning courses in order to allow working students, or those who cannot physically attend class, to complete the program at their own pace.
Arkansas also requires that the vet tech successfully take the Veterinary Technician National Examination (VTNE). The VTNE is a comprehensive exam that has been designed by practicing veterinarians and educators to effectively test the student's practical and academic qualifications.
The state of Arkansas does not accept VTNE scores from tests taken outside of the state. For that reason, anyone intending to become a licensed vet tech in Arkansas must make arrangements to take the VTNE within the state.
The VTNE can be taken up to five times, but the candidate will have to pay the registration fee for each test. Additionally, the VTNE cannot be taken more than five times without specific approval, which often involves additional steps to demonstrate that the individual is adequately prepared for the test. For that reason, candidates should only take the VTNE when they are fully prepared to pass it.
Vet techs must renew their license to practice every year in order to remain licensed practitioners. In Arkansas, renewing their license requires that they pay the renewal fee and provide proof that they have taken at least six hours of approved continuing education courses. Vet techs should check with the State of Arkansas Medical Examining Board to ensure that their courses qualify.
There are a wide range of potential vet tech careers in Arkansas, due to the state's varied economy and population. Vet tech jobs can range from assisting at a small rural practice to working with a number of fellow vet techs at a large urban veterinary clinic. In addition, many farms make use of veterinarians and vet techs to ensure that their animals are healthy can conform to state and federal health regulations.
Finally, there are a number of government employment options for vet techs. Ranging from local humane societies and animal shelters, to wildlife management, vet techs can enter a career in a wide range of government sectors.
Becoming a vet tech allows the individual to enter a secure and prestigious career. The Bureau of Labor Statistics has determined that vet tech jobs are increasing at a very high rate, making this career very promising for the newly graduated student and those individuals seeking a more rewarding career alike.

[Dale Carpenter, November 18, 2008 at 2:30pm] Trackbacks
Gay marriage in D.C. next year?
Yes, says openly gay D.C. city council member David Catania, a former Republican who holds an at-large seat. According to a website called DCist, Catania is confident that the city council will support the measure when it convenes in January and that the mayor will approve it.
Catania knows his city's politics much better than I, but I wonder whether his confidence is fully justified. Given the strong opposition to same-sex marriage among blacks, as demonstrated most recently in their 70% support for Prop 8, the city council in an overwhelmingly black city might get cold feet as the vote nears. Another open question is whether, even with an enlarged Democratic majority, Congress would overrule the city's recognition of same-sex marriages.
And now, D.C.:

Microlending
Microloans vs regular
Microloans of up to $50,000 can give early-stage businesses a major boost right when it counts.
By Nicolle Okoren
Microloans for small businesses are a powerful option for those who lack easy access to capital or whose credit history holds them back. They can help young businesses get off the ground or expand, paying for anything from new equipment to operating expenses. These loans have low rates, don't require perfect credit and are usually offered by lenders who help their borrowers succeed.
Let's look at everything you need to know about this financing option.
What is microlending?
Who should apply for a microloan?
How does microlending work?
Microloans vs. regular business loans
What are peer-to-peer microloans?
Microlending, sometimes called microcredit, is the business of giving out small loans. Microloans can be anywhere between $50,000 to $100,000. The U.S. Small Business Administration reports that the average microloan is $13,000. Business owners can use these loans to start or expand their venture or project. Microloans are usually issued by individuals or nonprofits instead of by banks or other financial institutions. They usually come with relatively low interest rates and short terms.
Microlending is often associated with funding projects in developing countries, where many small business owners struggle to access traditional sources of capital. But microloans for small businesses are also extremely effective at helping businesses thrive in the U.S.
Certain U.S. communities—such as people of color and women—have also historically struggled to gain access to traditional sources of capital. Many microlenders strive to help disenfranchised communities get the resources they need, and often provide advice and training to support success.
Early-stage businesses can get access to startup funding.
Average credit usually qualifies.
Rates usually sit lower than for typical business loans.
You may get guidance or coaching along with the loan.
Lending amounts usually only go up to $50,000.
You may not qualify unless you fit specific parameters defined by the lender.
Terms might be shorter than for typical business loans.
The lender may restrict how you can use the funding.

Microloans are a good fit for small businesses that are in their early stages and need a bit of extra cash to get things off the ground. They can also be helpful to established small business owners who need a little funding for a discrete project that will propel their business forward. Both new startups and established businesses may be able to access microloans too.
Many microlenders have a goal for their lending—for example, to support minority-owned businesses or to help small business owners improve their credit. Good candidates for microloans are small business owners who need a small amount of cash and fit the mission of a particular microlender.
Microlending works like other business lending: a potential borrower applies, receives approval, gets access to funds, and then pays the loan back over a period of time with interest.
Before you can apply for a microloan, you have to qualify as a borrower with the lender you want to do business with. Typically, you must be a for-profit small business with average credit; good credit usually isn't required, and some lenders don't even check your credit.
Each lender has its own requirements for eligibility, so pay close attention to the details. You may need to be located in a specific region, state, county, or city; come from a certain underrepresented community; or have a particular goal in mind for the funding to support.
To get a microloan, you'll typically have to fill out an application, and you might be asked to include some or all of the following:
Approval for the lender to check your credit
Two years of personal tax returns
Recent pay stubs
A business plan
A financial statement and/or cash flow projections
Contracts or purchase agreements
A personal guarantee or an indication of the collateral you'll use to guarantee the loan
Established businesses likely must supply more business and financial information, such as business tax returns, balance sheets, income statements, and business licenses and permits.
If you're approved for your loan and accept a certain amount of funding, you may have to pay fees and/or closing costs. You'll receive your funds as a lump sum and be able to put it to good use in your business right away just like these entrepreneurs who got microloans.
You will be given a certain number of years to repay your loan—three to six years is typical. When you need to start repaying your loan will depend on your lender's rules. But once repayment begins, you'll need to provide monthly payments composed of principal and interest by a given date each month for a set number of months.
You can pay extra principal payments if you want to repay the loan faster, and most microlenders will not charge prepayment fees when you do so.
When it comes to microloans and regular small business loans, there are quite a few differences.
Because microlenders are focused on supporting the community, they tend to be more flexible in terms of credit history and monthly payment amounts.
While they both have maximum limits, microloans are issued for much smaller amounts.
Microlenders spend more time getting to know a business owner on a personal level. To help entrepreneurs succeed, they sometimes provide consulting and training.
Certain microloan lenders are actually platforms or programs where individuals can invest money that is packaged into small loans for business owners. Crowdfunding or peer-to-peer lending can be a great way for small business owners to get a boost of cash—if they meet the requirements.
Some of these platforms, such as Kiva and SoLo, provide loans with little to no interest as a service to help cash-strapped borrowers. Some of them require the borrower to solicit contributions from friends and family to prove their creditworthiness.
Reputable microlenders
Considering a microloan? Check out these microlenders with good reputations to see if one might be a match for you.
U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA)
The SBA is the most prominent U.S. microlender, providing loans of up to $50,000 to small businesses and some not-for-profit childcare centers through its SBA Microloan Program. The loans, which average $13,000, are meant to help businesses start and expand their operations. The loans are originated and administered by a network of nonprofit, community-based organizations, such as LiftFund. You can check out this list of SBA providers for your state.
LiftFund
Texas-based nonprofit LiftFund provides loans as low as $500 to businesses in a number of southern U.S. states. The organization focuses on lending to those who struggle to access capital elsewhere: about 77% of LiftFund's borrowers are Hispanic or African-American, and 38% of them are women. Most borrowers use the funds for working capital or to buy equipment. LiftFund works with borrowers who lack a solid credit history to build up good credit.
Accion Opportunity Fund
California-based nonprofit Accion Opportunity Fund offers small business funding through its lending arm, Accion Opportunity Fund Community Development. It lends primarily to women, people of color, and immigrants, many of whom have been unable to access traditional sources of financing. Its loans range from $5,000 to $100,000 and have rates starting at 5.99%. Borrowers also get access to educational resources, coaching and support networks.
Accompany Capital
New York-based Accompany Capital focuses its lending on immigrants, refugees, and women entrepreneurs in New York City. The organization offers microloans of between $500 and $50,000 with 6- to 36-month repayment terms and no penalty for early repayment. No minimum credit score is required, but the borrower must have a decent history of credit repayment. The funds are intended to help a business get started, expand, or refinance existing debt.

Microloans are powerful tools for certain businesses, particularly those that may struggle to access capital. Borrowers don't need an exemplary credit score, and startups don't need to have too much business experience under their belt to qualify. These loans have the notable advantage of lower rates than typical business loans. And they often come with a side of technical assistance and advice from experienced professionals.
Microloans may be small, but they are mighty: they can help businesses get off the ground or expand, giving them a vital boost toward success.

Microlending FAQs
What are microloans?
Microloans are small loans of up to $50,000, or sometimes $100,000, that entrepreneurs can use to launch or grow their business. These loans usually have lower rates and shorter terms than larger traditional business loans. They are often aimed at business owners in certain communities or locations, and frequently come with guidance and support.
How do microloans work?
Microloans are often provided by nonprofit financial organizations or even by individuals through peer-to-peer lending. Some microloans must be used for specific purposes, while others can be used for anything a business needs. Once a prospective borrower applies and is approved, the lender provides the funding in one lump sum, after which the borrower must pay the principal and interest back in regular installments over a set number of years.
Why do microloans have low rates?
Microloans usually have lower rates than typical business loans from traditional lenders for a couple of reasons. One is that the loans are small and for a relatively short term, so the lender is not taking a very large risk in providing each one. Another reason is that in many cases microloans are designed to prioritize the success of the recipient over the profit of the lender.
How much funding do microloans provide?
Microloans are typically $50,000 or less, though some consider business loans up to $100,000 to be microloans. Microloans for US borrowers can be as little as $500, though loans of $10,000 to $15,000 are the most common.
Do you have to pay back microloans?
Yes, microloans must be paid back, along with interest. (Some borrowers, like Kiva and SoLo, charge 0% interest though.) Repayment occurs in regular—usually monthly—installments over the course of several years, perhaps three or six years.
Why do people apply for microloans?
People look to microloans to finance business expenses like startup costs, operational costs, equipment purchases or upgrades, and debt refinance, among other things. People may apply for microloans as opposed to larger business loans because they aren't able to access capital from a traditional lender. Business owners from communities supported by microlenders may find a microloan a good option for securing startup financing while receiving technical support and guidance.

Q: Prepend date to filename in powershell if the file does not start with a date already Using powershell, I'd like to prepend the creation date of a number of files, but only if the filenames do not already start with the date. For other files, the code should skip them.
I've successfully used the following command to prepend dates, but I'd like to make it conditional on the filename not starting with any date format (or perhaps, any digits at all).

A: You can use regex to match a pattern. I'm not the best with regex but found the following regex elsewhere for matching a date in the format you specified. I just took your existing code and inserted a Where-Object to filter out files that already match the pattern.

Rebel Star
Our Quest to Solve the Great Mysteries of the Sun
Colin Stuart
Categories: Science - History - Philosophy
A fascinating and comprehensive guide to the sun – our home star – which remains the greatest mystery in the solar system, and why understanding it is pivotal to our future existence here on Earth.
In 1869, a great mystery was born. As astronomers observed a total solar eclipse, for the first time they saw the faint glow of the solar corona, the sun's outer atmosphere. Measurements of a previously unknown wavelength that made up this solar light sparked hot debate among scientists, but it was another sixty years before they discovered that this wavelength was in fact iron being burned at a staggering 3 million degrees Celsius. With the sun's surface only 6,000 degrees, this shouldn't be possible. What we now knew about the sun appeared to defy the laws of physics – and nature.
But as well as being shrouded in intriguing mystery, the unpredictable nature of the sun's corona poses a serious threat to our life here on earth – the destructive potential of solar storms, caused by solar material travelling out into space at around 1 million miles an hour, is huge. Remaining beyond our reach until now, a new generation of ambitious solar missions are currently travelling closer to the sun than any previous spacecraft in history. As we enter this unprecedented era of heliophysics, there has never been a better time to get to grips with the workings of our home star.
Rebel Star is a timely and essential guide, examining our long-held fascination with the sun, from ancient beliefs, to early scientific studies, and an up-to-date look at what we know – and still don't know – taking us on a thrilling journey to the centre of our solar system.
Colin Stuart is an astronomy journalist, author and science communicator, talking to thousands of people a year about the universe, from schools and the public to conferences and businesses. He has written twelve science books to date, which have been translated into seventeen languages, as well as articles for the Guardian, European Space Agency and New Scientist, among others. He is a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, and has had an asteroid named after him in recognition of his efforts to popularise astronomy. He has talked about the universe on Sky News, BBC News and Radio 5Live. He is the author of 13 Journeys Through Space and Time: Christmas Lectures From the Royal Institution and The Universe in Bite-sized Chunks, also published by Michael O'Mara Books.

Charles Lewis Low (July 21, 1928 – September 18, 2017)[1] was an American actor.
Born to a Russian mother and Austrian-Polish father, Low achieved his biggest success as Morris "Morrie" Kessler in the Martin Scorsese film Goodfellas (1990). The character of Morrie was famous for his "Morrie's Wig Shop" commercial which is seen as comical, and that coupled with his penchant for pestering Jimmy Conway about money leads most of the characters to see him as a nuisance, leading to his eventual murder by Tommy DeVito. Kessler's character is based on Martin Krugman.
He has had small roles in other Robert De Niro films, such as The Mission, The King of Comedy, and most notably in Sergio Leone's 1984 film Once Upon a Time in America as Deborah and Fat Moe's father. He also guest starred in a first-season episode of The Sopranos, as Shlomo Teittleman. He can also be seen in Alan Taylor's 2006 film, Kill the Poor.
Low once served as Robert De Niro's real estate consultant and landlord.[2]
Low was a Veteran officer of the United States Army where he attained the rank of Major.

Approved biography for Thomas Maryon Wilson
Wilson is best known in some circles for having been thwarted in his efforts to build houses on Hampstead Heath, a cherished London park. However, he was also an avid photographer and an early calotypist. When he died, the Photographic Journal lamented that the Photographic Society had lost "one of its best and earliest supporters." Wilson had taken part in the formation of the society in 1853 and served as a member of its first council. Just when he took up calotypy as an amateur is not clear, but the Liverpool Photographic Journal reported that he practiced "the calotype process at a very early date." Wilson contributed twenty-one Talbotypes and calotypes to the 1854 exhibition of the Photographic Society in London. His impressive range included copies of paintings, formal portraits, genre portraits, architecture, landscape, and some very ambitious attempts not typical of his contemporaries. One was Forest Scene — taken during a storm. The Builder enthused, "Sir Thomas Wilson's 'Snow-storm' (692) is excellent: it is really a snow storm." The Photographic Journal, comparing his copies of paintings with other attempts, reported, "Sir Thomas M. Wilson has been more successful in his calotype and talbotype copies of pictures by McIan." When Pauline Trevelyan and her husband, Sir Walter, visited Wilson in 1852, she noted in her diary that they found Wilson "busy making calotype portraits in a glass house he has built on the roof of their house." Wilson became one of Dr. Hugh Diamond's first students, learning the new collodion process from him. In the 1858 exhibition of the Photographic Society, Wilson was still showing calotypes, but after that he turned to collodion. He continued to exhibit up to the year of his death.

Forest Fire Threatens Nuclear Lab
Los Alamos closes as fire draws near
The Los Alamos National Laboratory, home to the United States' primary nuclear research facility, closed Monday as a wildfire raged nearby. The Los Conchas fire has surpassed 40,000 acres and reached within a mile of the laboratories, which developed the world's first nuclear weapon in the 1940s. Facility officials have cut gas lines to some buildings as a precaution but say all radioactive and dangerous materials are safe. The fire started Sunday afternoon in the Santa Fe National Forest and exploded out of control within a matter of hours. It is the latest in a string of wildfires across the Southwest, including the Wallow Fire, at 500,000 acres the largest fire in Arizona state history. East of the Las Conches Fire, the Pacheco Canyon Fire is still burning outside of Santa Fe, and to the south, a smaller fire started in the Rio Grande valley on Sunday. Fire experts believe that an unusally dry summer, high winds, a buildup of fuel, and even climate change have made 2011 one of the worst fire seasons in recent history. Thunderstorms are expected tonight in New Mexico, but may bring little or no rainfall.

Dealership Review by Fred W..
I went in for a check up on …0Location: Seattle WADates: January 10, 2012Sales Person: Tyrone T.
I'd like to thank Gabe and the guys at Magic Toyota for giving me thee best experience I've ever had at a dealership. I usually dread having to buy a car, and I went in expecting the worst.
I was recently in a car accident that forced me into shopping for something new, the last thing I wanted to deal with was some jerk trying to pressure me, but they were sympathetic to my situation and made it a very easy process. Thanks again guys, I'll be back to see you next time.
Such a Wonderful Experience at Magic Toyota, I love my New Car! I Will be doing business here again!
I consistently get amazing service at Magic Toyota. Everyone is super friendly and helpful.
My experience at Magic Toyota was the best experience I have ever had buying a car. We arrived at a buying price and trade in value very fast and the paperwork did not take half as much time.
The car we bought wasn't on the lot so we had to return the next day for the vehicle and Jeremy went out personally to get the car from the other dealership that was down near past Olympia. I imagine that was a personal sacrifice of time he could of spent selling other cars.
Jeremy was also very knowledgeable, relational and also very humble. We were very comfortable with him.
Thank you for having such a great employee and a great dealership!
On Thursday evening, my 2007 Camry V6 2GRE-FE had a massive leak originating from my VVTi hose. I had a strong scent of burnt oil coming from my vents as started my car and was driving away from the parking garage. I stop the car and get out to my surprise and shock, a drip trail leading back to the swimming pool that was once my motor oil.
So, I go through hell to get oil and try to make it back home with some divine intervention, and without locking up my engine thereby killing it. My Camry is my only mode of transport, without it and life would be… difficult; and to say the least money is already tight. The very next day, I called around to local Toyota service depts. explaining my misfortune, and they don't want to even see less touch my Camry on their dime, passed warranty S.O.L. they say, TSB and recall work already done during prior oil services and not Toyota's or their problem.
I was advised to call Magic Toyota because they were the service department who replaced and repaired all of my warranty work, that maybe they would do something for me. My day was going bad by this point. But Magic Toyota Service took care of me. I must say to everyone that as soon as I met my Service Manager, Christine Larson of Orange Team, she was understanding of my situation, listened to all of my concerns and took it upon her warm generosity to take care of me and repair my car at no cost on her account. She went back and forth, investigating the details on my car, talking to the techs, researching the parts involved, and in the end took it upon herself to take care of the customer and cover everything. Most of us already know that this level of character is urban legend. But if you have met Ms. Christine Larson and are under her professional Service Team, you already know this as fact.
I was in and out with two signatures, a smile and that my car was already started and ready for me to go, and all of this with no appointment on a Friday in under two hours, and no money out of pocket. It is because of good people like Ms. Christine Larson who puts the customer first that keeps Toyota owners loyal to the brand and especially to the dealer. Thank you Christine Larson for everything, Magic Toyota is lucky to have you and I am grateful to you, as with everyone else whom you assist with a smile.
I recently had service done to my Toyota and encountered a wonderful person and Wanted to bring it ot "management attention." Christine was a very accommodating, Very efficient and knowledgeable in the services available. She acknowledged me The minute I walked in the door with a smile and a "hello can I help you;" unlike the gentleman sitting across from her. She adds a wonderful and friendly quality To your business.
I have just completed my Second Magic Toyota Purchase, and for the second time it truly was a magical experience.
Taieb has always been professional , kind and sincerely interested in helping me find the car I want and/or need.
Alora has been incredibly persistent in locationg the very best financing situation…and the first time around, that was a challenge!
Thank you for the easy rewarding experience…I remain a true believer in Magic!
I had a great experience with Tommy and Magic Toyota this past Sunday for my Toyota Highlander purchase. Tommy is very friendly and helpful as well as not pushy and trustful! I am very happy with his service!
Excellent Experience! Great People! Peter you were amazing and Lionel was also very helpful! Warm Regards!
I just wanted to share that I had a very good car buying experience with Joon and with the Magic Toyota. It was easy and painless. Now I am looking forward to a long service relationship with you plus you can count on me when I am ready to purchase another Toyota in about 3 years. I bought the Prius for my daughter, she will be using the Prius while in college! I will be surely recommend your dealer and Joon to anyone that wants to Purchase a Toyota!
I just wanted to report that our experience purchasing the Sienna with Magic Toyota was really excellent! Everyone that we worked with was first class! There were no unpleasant sales pressures and everyone that we worked with was clearly well trained and knew their products!
Thanks again to Peter and Paul for being the best dealership in the Northwest!
I just wanted to let you know that we couldn't be happier with our new car! Jordan did a really great job helping us find the car we want. and giving us the highest possible discount we could get, he was very personable! We will definitely recommend Magic Toyota to our friends who want to purchase a car!
khing took my long distance telephone call last Saturday while i was driving home to Bothell from Phoenix Arizona. he gave me the information I needed to have my Camry repaired in short order. khing directed me to Toyotatown in Stockton California and they put me to the head of the cue and within 10 minutes of my dropping in had read out the fault code. toyotatown gave me the VIP treatment and after the R & R of the faulty spark plugs & wire i was on my way again. R & R means remove and replacement. it's nice to know that no matter where I am I can depend upon Khing and the magic Toyota team to keep me rolling along safely.
Yesterday I had the Toyota serviced for routine stuff and told Kevin Nelson what happened, Kevin suggested that I drop you this personal note. This 99 Camry that I bought from your dealership has had continuing inspections and maintenance from your shops since new. It's a great personal automobile and I am very happy with it. It's my fifth Toyota. Having previously a 68 Corona Mk II, 73 Corona, 77 Cressida, 92 Camry and now the latest 99 camry.
Please note the new cashier, I think her name is Tami or Cami was very friendly and efficient. I offered her my congratulations on her new employment and wished her luck.
I feel bad I don't know his name,(the Filipino gentleman) very nice, courteous. He was so helpful and when I joked about a missing tire air cap he went an got chrome ones, not plastic. It's these little things that, well at least to me, show that great salespeople always go beyond the customers expectations. They made me a fair deal and the manager knows his business. I have visited a lot of lots over many years, made lots of deals, this place shines. They are not just selling cars, they are making loyal customers.
Very happy customer….I purchased a used car from Magic Toyota Lynnwood in October 2014. I had Michael Kim for my Salesman, he found the perfect car for me, as he really listen to what I wanted.
I worked with both General Sales Managers Paul Chung and Elcio Giron both showed great interest in helping me from the beginning.
I recently bought a 2009 Toyota Rav 4 at Magic Toyota in Lynnwood, Wa. Keith, Tommy and the staff were wonderful. They made me feel like family and the service was phenomenal.
Best car buying experience we have ever had.
We were not looking forward to the hassle and the games played we have had to endure in previous car purchases.Also enjoyed our time with Alora. We will definitely recommend Christopher Heinz and Magic Toyota to our family and friends.
We had a really good experience buying a car from John Tomko at Magic Toyota. John is passionate about his job and is very knowledgeable about the different vehicles we looked at. He was low pressure and patient. Before we took our car home he went over everything with us and even helped set up some features.
I negotiated a lease over the phone with Bill Blair and the Manager Keith Mayernik. We were done with the numbers in less than three minutes. Got me a low lease payment with no money out of pocket. I went in, signed the papers, Bill delivered the car to my home—all within 30 minutes. That has to be a world record!! Or was it Magic?
As soon as I entered the store, Lynia was extremely welcoming and kind. Her professionalism and positive attitude made me feel comfortable and happy to be going to a store with employees that demonstrate amazing customer service!
1) He went out of his way (Multiple phone calls)to effectively communicate the status.
2) He let me know that some of the service issues were just out of warranty and that he would work with his service manager to do whatever he could to help with the situation.
3) He was my advocate for getting this work covered under warranty.
Any car dealership can sell you a car. Most dealerships spend the time and effort to make the sale- on the front end. Roeuth went out of his way to help me- on the back end of the sale- that is service. This means a lot to me, and I will reward his efforts with a continued loyalty to Magic Toyota Edmonds.
Great work Roeuth! Thanks So much! 5 Star Service!
I just recently traded in my old car for a new one and im very delighted with the experience i had with alex! He is very compassionate and understanding. At first I was not very pleased with a certain manager on the floor who was very unprofessional and inconsiderate with the situation. I thought I couldn't trade in my car but alex called me after two dats and went beyond his capabilities and helped me and i am forever grateful. He doesnt just think about doing business but he will really build a relationship with his clients. Love my car thank you alex!

Maserati Bora AM 117 4.7 1973 for sale
Exterior: The Maserati Bora does NOT go unnoticed! I can just imagine back in 1973, this car must have been looking like a spaceship roaring through the tiny streets of a remote village in Italy. This is razor edge design at its peak from Bertone and Giugiaro. I think just about every Italian car that I like was penned by Giugiaro! The original silver paintwork is spectacular just like the panel fit. It was repainted some time during the 90's at Campana in Italy. All outside details are in a very nice and original condition. Rolling on original style Campagnolo wheels with Pirelli tyres. The original hubcaps are in "like new" condition.
Interior: For an Italian sportscar, the Maserati Bora is actually very comfortable, and I would not hesitate to take this car for a long road trip through Europe. The long seats looking almost like beach chairs are very comfortable and the original leather from 1973 is still in a fantastic shape. You can make everything new, but it will never be the same feeling as when it is the original! The instrumentation is like a small aircraft, but still tasteful and with function. Everything inside this car works the way it should. And black interior will always look good, even in another 20 years from now. The car is super clean and original even when you open the rear hood and also in the rather large size for a sportscar front compartment.
Engine: The 4.7l V8 engine in the Maserati Bora makes the right sound to match the outside appearance. And with the five-speed dogleg gearbox, it is fantastic to drive even on today's roads. The carburettors have just been cleaned and adjusted. Otherwise this car has had only the normal service work done to it over the years. I would think it is not easy to find such original and untouched Maserati Bora today. Please also note that this car was sold new in Europe, the cars sold new in USA often have less power due to the emission restrictions during this time.
History: This car was registered in Sweden for the first time in Sweden on November the 11th in 1976 and it was then imported from Germany. It has been featured in the Maserati Bulletin, and also in the book World of Sports Cars by Frank Oleski. There are pictures of this Maserati Bora with the same license plate it bares today. It comes with Swedish Technical Control (TUF) documents collected over the years. And the km can be verified here. The last Technical Control here in Sweden was done 2018-06-26 and the car is ready to drive. I feel it is important to emphasise this is a very original car that has always just been carefully maintained, used only in sunny and dry conditions while most other Italian sportscars from the 70's have already been restored perhaps more than one time. The car is confirmed by Maserati Classiche.
Horsepower/kw: 310hp
