Ron DeSantis acts to protect Florida residents from left-wing protesting mobs, makes it illegal to picket at homes of intended targets
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis continues to pursue a freedom and liberty agenda in the Sunshine State, much to the chagrin of the Marxist authoritarian left. Earlier this week, the GOP governor signed a bill sent to him by the Republican-controlled legislature that makes it illegal under most circumstances to protest in front of a private […]

Accessory to murder: Oakland to become a "sanctuary city" for baby killers
Leaders from Oakland, the East Bay's largest city, unanimously voted to pass a resolution that protects abortion rights, effectively making it a "sanctuary city" for women seeking abortions. The city will become an accessory to murder – a collaborator in the murders of the unborn and an ally of baby killers. This was made in […]
Rep. Katie Porter, a Democrat, says legalized abortion is needed to combat inflation… because babies no longer have mouths to feed after they're killed
The solution to runaway inflation is to make sure that abortion remains legal and freely available to all women in America, said Rep. Katie Porter (D-Cal.). During a recent appearance on MSNBC, the Orange County congresswoman offered up her own made-up version of economics, blaming high prices and devaluation of the dollar on the impending […]
'Unrelenting daily confrontation': After Roe leak, Yale law students call for ostracizing conservative classmates and tossing out constitution
It's been a rough couple of weeks for students at Yale Law School, who are responding to news that the Supreme Court may overturn Roe v. Wade with calls to accost their conservative classmates through "unrelenting daily confrontation" and toss the Constitution by the wayside. (Article by Aaron Sibarium republished from FreeBeacon.com) Members of the law school's conservative Federalist […]
Congress moves quickly to protect Supreme Court justices from left-wing violence following leak of 'Roe' decision
The Democrat-controlled Congress last week at least tacitly acknowledged that their left-wing supporters are responsible for the vast majority of political violence in the country. Earlier this month, someone at the U.S. Supreme Court engaged in an unprecedented act, leaking a majority draft opinion overturning the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that improperly 'legalized' the […]
Another chicken little summer: Leftists have a new excuse for mostly peaceful riots
Once again the loud-mouth, blow-hard radical left is up in arms about the potential overturning of Roe v. Wade triggered by the egregious leak of the first draft of a SCOTUS majority opinion written by Justice Alito after the court upheld a law passed in Mississippi banning abortions in the state after 15 weeks gestation. While the opinion […]
FULL LIST: Pro-abortion vandalism, church storming over possibility Roe v. Wade will fall
Over Mother's Day weekend, there was a variety of pro-abortion vandalism and vulgarity over the possibility that abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy may no longer be the norm in much of the U.S. should states be able to set their own abortion laws. Pro-life activists expect such activity to continue through […]
Op-ed: Abortion activists reveal their EVIL nature through threats and vandalism
Abortion activists reveal their evil nature by means of threats against Supreme Court justices and vandalism on churches, according to an op-ed. Pro-life activist Jonathon Von Maren noted this observation in a May 11 piece for LifeSiteNews. His observation comes amid the leak of a draft opinion penned by Justice Samuel Alito which, if adopted […]
Chicago mayor pushing real insurrection: Lightfoot urges "call to arms" over SCOTUS draft opinion on Roe
Once again, the Democrat left has proven that it is truly the party of violence and 'revolution.' The mayor of one of the most violent cities in the country has actually issued a "call to arms" following the unprecedented leak of a draft U.S. Supreme Court decision that overturns the wrongly-decided Roe v. Wade case legalizing abortion […]

No Colombia FTA Rally: Marie Clarke Walker, representing the Canadian Labour Congress, speaks at a labour rally held in Toronto on November 29 2007 in opposition of the Canada-Colombia Free Trade Agreement.
Since the Canada-Colombia Free Trade Agreement was tabled on March 26th, people across Canada have been getting the word out and showing their opposition to the deal.
Popular rejection of the deal has spread far and wide, and has even reached Prime Minister Harper.
"There is a view in some groups that they don't like modern economic policy. They think you can make progress without it. They're entitled to their view," said Harper while in Trinidad and Tobago for the the Summit of the Americas.
Protest against the FTA is not limited to Canada. In Colombia, though the deal was essentially negotiated in secret, people are speaking out.
"To sign this deal would not only make Canada complicit in the innumerable crimes committed by the Colombian government, which crimes have been denounced by the United Nations and the Interamerican Court of Human Rights," reads a letter sent by dozens of Colombian organizations and individuals to MPs yesterday.
In the US, a Colombia solidarity organization known as Mingas has started a petition against the deal, which begins "As the global economic crisis deepens and the model of neoliberal economic development is being questioned in both Canada and the United States, it is shocking that the Canadian government would consider further entrenching these policies by ratifying this FTA."
In Vancouver, friends of Colombia are planning to deliver a letter against the FTA to Michael Ignatieff at the Federal Liberal Convention on May 1st, and marches on Ottawa are planned for early May.

Q: Do all variables of a class become static when we instantiate it with static keyword? I have the following problem, I am having a class which is called Cache and it's working like a standard cache if something is already in in take it, otherwise put it. The class has many other properties but they are not linked to the issue.
public class Cache {
    private Map<String, String> cache = new Hashmap();
    public static Cache() {return new Cache();}
}

I need to have a static instantiation of the class in another class.
public class Test {

   private static Cache cache = Cache.create();
}

Do the variables in my Cache class become static by default? Do I have to make the hashmap static? What are the differences if, for example, I have a static instantiation of the Cache class with a static hashmap inside? I am getting really confused here and I don't know how to approach the current issue. The behavior that I need is to have a static Cache cache instance to store the values correctly, but I am not sure whether the hashmap in the Cache class needs to be static or not. Thanks in advance!
I tried writing some unit tests to understand them better, but I got confused even more.

Being a Natural Health Practitioner I understand the importance of staying healthy. After suffering an auto immune disorder I started to look at minerals and soon realised that I was not absorbing enough minerals from my food. All my symptoms showed a deficiency of minerals. Taking supplements made no difference to my general health. However, putting the minerals on my skin completed changed my well being for the better. Now, symptom free I produce these minerals for topical use and am receiving amazing feedback from everyone, not just people with illnesses.
Bodhi started in my home kitchen. However, it soon outgrew that and now what was a large utility/fruit preserving room is now my lab. I produce all my products in this room, from making herbal tinctures to producing, labeling, packaging orders to making the product itself.
Most of all I love receiving feedback from my customers of how using topical Magnesium or Msm Gel has changed their life for the better. Anything from how their sleep has improved, energy levels increased or even just starting to relax. All sorts of people have had amazing results being pain free the first time in years by using the Msm Gel. This is what inspires me to continue making and marketing these products.
This will be my first time at the Auckland Fair and I'm so excited to be part of it. I love meeting new people and as I live in Kerikeri most people will be new to me and my products. I'm really looking forward to it.
Being asked by great reputable shops to stock my products.

You will not believe what the profession of the Lebanese artist (Haifa Wehbe) was before art .. and a surprise that you will not imagine in her religion and the number of her marriages!
Haifa Wehbe is considered one of the Lebanese artists who have great fame in the art world, and she has a wealth of songs and many shows.
The Lebanese actress, Haifa Wehbe, was born in 1976 in the town of Mahrouna, in southern Lebanon, to a Lebanese father, Mohamed Wehbe, and an Egyptian mother, Sayeda Abdel Aziz Ibrahim.
There is no doubt that the Lebanese singer Haifa Wehbe is one of the most important artists who have appeared on the artistic scene, whether Lebanese, Egyptian, or Arab in general, and she has won many awards and titles for her artwork, whether in singing or in the field of acting.
The artist Haifa Wehbe has one brother named Ahmed Wehbe and three sisters: Alia Wehbe and Hana Yamout, and singer Rola Yamout.
What many do not know is that Haifa Wehbe, a child, worked in a jewelry store, lived with her mother and studied at a boarding school, but did not complete her university studies.
After her divorce from her cousin for several years, specifically on April 24, 2009, the Lebanese star married Egyptian businessman Ahmed Abu Hashima and separated from him in November 2012.
As for her third marriage, she was with her former business manager, Muhammad al-Waziri, according to the documents that the latter submitted to the Egyptian judicial authorities after filing a breach of trust case against him, but she denied this marriage.
As for Haifa Wehbe's religion, beliefs and sect, she is a Shiite Muslim, she was born into a Shiite family.
Haifa Wehbe began her artistic career when she was sixteen years old when she participated in the Miss South Lebanon competition, and presented work as a model in a number of commercials and videos until she became one of the most famous models in the Arab world, then entered the field of singing and acting.

Could any body guide me in the right direction?
The settings in the system does not allow the same EAN assignment to different articles.
Can the use of additional EAN be used, and if so how???
You may pick a base unit and maintain EAN for the same. Then define other units in configuration and maintain conversion factors in Article Master basic view. You do not need to maintain EANs for these other units. You can procure and receive the items in any of these units.
I am involved in a Retail implementation for a grocery chain mainly seliing fresh items like fruits, veges, meat and fish.

Trinidad and Tobago have all signature aspects of the Caribbean region with its breath-taking nature and top class beach rest. However, these two islands have much more to offer in terms of the number of interesting attractions. Tobago is a calm, mostly relaxed island that is famous for its beach resorts. Many cruise ships arrive to the island so their passengers can enjoy the beautiful bay. Trinidad, in its turn, is an energetic place that is well-known as the location of the largest carnival in the Caribbean. During the carnival, which is similar to the famous carnival in Brazil, it's possible to see the local invention – the steel drum.
Trinidad and Tobago is a country that consists of 21 islands. The largest two form the name of the country, and other significant islands include Chacachacare, Little Tobago, Monos, Gasparee, St. Giles Island and Huevos. Trinidad is the largest and most populous island; the capital of the country, Port of Spain, is also located there. Only 4% of the country's population lives in Tobago.
Just like other popular destinations of the region, Trinidad and Tobago offers great beach rest. The northern coast of Trinidad is the location of beautiful beaches with white sand and crystal blue water. The most popular beaches here are Maracas, Chagville, Tyrico, Toco, Los Iros, Las Cuevas, Mayaro and Quinam. The most famous and beautiful beaches of Tobago are Pigeon Point, MT Irvine, Englishman's Bay, Store Bay, Canoe Bay, Bucco and Grange.
Fans of bird watching will be excited to visit Caroni Bird Sanctuary, which is located in the Caroni Swamp. The national bird of the islands, the Scarlet Ibis, can also be found in the bird sanctuary. The Mathura Beach on the Trinidad Island is home to the leatherback sea turtles, a rare species that returns to the island every spring to lay eggs. It's also possible to do voluntary work and help to save the marine creature. If you seek undeveloped places, head to Toco village at the North East of Trinidad as the area around it is completely unspoilt.
The town of La Brea is known because of the largest deposit of natural asphalt in the world. Travellers are also recommended to visit Tobago Rain Forest, the oldest rain forest in whole North America. Finally, don't miss Argyle Falls, the highest falls of Tobago Island. The falls can be reached after an easy 15-minute long walk.

Assmanshausen Winery is a heritage-listed former winery at Serisier Road, Toolburra, Southern Downs Region, Queensland, Australia. It was built from  to . It is also known as Toolburra Vineyards. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 6 January 1999.

History

Assmanshausen Vineyard at Sandy Creek, near Warwick was established in the 1860s by German immigrants Jacob and Elisabetha Kircher, who were also among the first in the district to establish commercial wine production on a substantial scale. In the late 19th century, Assmanshausen's award-winning wines were known throughout southern Queensland, and the winery was a popular attraction for visitors to the Warwick district.

Jacob and Elisabetha Kircher were early settlers on the southern Darling Downs, arriving at Moreton Bay in March 1855. Jacob gained employment as a gardener at Canning Downs Homestead near Warwick, when the principal stations on the southern Downs had extensive orchards and gardens. About 1857 the Kirchers left Canning Downs, Jacob working as a bushman on Rosenthal station and at various other activities, before taking up farming in the early 1860s. In December 1861 Kircher purchased adjoining portions 238 () and 239 (), near Sandy Creek, about  northwest of Warwick, for . The Kirchers were among the earliest farmers in the district. They fenced and cleared their land and experimented firstly with wheat, but after successive failures turned to vine growing, the first 1,000 vines being planted . By 1870 they had established Assmanshausen Winery - named after a celebrated Assmannshausen wine-producing district on the Rhine.

Viticulture and wine production in the Warwick district was pioneered in the mid-19th century by principally German immigrants. By 1861, Germans formed 9.75% (217 persons) of the population of the towns of Warwick, Allora, Leyburn and the rural portion of the Warwick police district. Like the Kirchers, most were farmers sponsored in the 1850s by southern Darling Downs squatters. Most of those who pioneered the wine industry on the southern Downs took up selections on the Warwick Reserve or Warwick Agricultural Reserve in the 1860s. By the mid- 1870s a number of vineyards had been established along Sandy Creek, at Swan and Deuchar's Creek, and at the Jew's Retreat on Glengallan land. Only one vigneron relied solely on the vineyard as a source of income; most also grew wheat, maize and lucerne or had established orchards, and none of the vineyards exceeded . All made wine on the premises, and all had constructed cellars (some in stone, often two- storeyed and partly underground) in which the wine was both made and stored.

By 1876 Assmanshausen was the principal vineyard and winery in the Warwick district, with  under vines. Older plantings included both white (verdelho, muscadine and salvina) and red (black Spanish and Mataro) grapes, but more recent plantings were reds only: Mataro and Hermitage. Most of the vines were trellised, the newer ones planted about  apart, and Kircher had invented a horse-drawn cultivator which could weed and turn the soil close to the vines while the horse walked at a sufficient distance to prevent vine damage from the traces. Kircher was producing unfortified wines [dry wines made without the addition of cane sugar or spirits], and had already won prizes at the Warwick and Brisbane exhibitions. At this period the Assmanshausen winery comprised a dressed stone building of 3 flats: an underground cellar; a ground-level workroom; and a steeply-pitched shingled roof containing an attic space. The attic was ventilated by 12 air shafts fitted with shutters on the inside, ensuring that the temperature in the attic was cooler than that of the ground floor. There were also 6 air shafts in the cellar. These shafts sloped through the stone walls to the surface of the ground. Kircher had devised his own system of wine production: the press was located in the ground floor workroom; from here the must (unfermented grape juice) was suction-pumped through pipes up to the attic, where it was fermented in 500 and  vats before being fed through more pipes to the underground cellar, where it matured in wooden butts.

In the 1870s, grape growing and wine production in the Warwick district emerged as an important economic activity. Warwick vignerons had reached a stage whereby they could hold much of their produce until it had mellowed and ripened with age, and the reputation of Assmanshausen wines in particular was growing. By 1881, Kircher had installed modern screw presses at Assmanshausen and his winery was described as one of the best in Queensland. At this period the presses were located in the attic, the must then gravity-fed down pipes to the ground floor where it was fermented in vats, before being piped to the underground stone cellar to mature. A timber, ground- level extension to the cellar may have been constructed by this time. Kircher had  under vines around his house, and a  vineyard about  distant. He was also farming his land, with a  paddock under oats and 500 merino sheep. The Kirchers' residence (unlikely to be their first house on the property) was impressive also - described by one reporter in 1881 as "the neatest, best finished, and most comfortable dwelling I have ever seen among Queensland farmers or selectors ...", and in an 1887 report as "one of the most perfect in the colonies".

Assmanshausen figured prominently in the 1889 report on viticulture and wine-making in the southern districts of Queensland, prepared by the Under Secretary for Agriculture, Peter McLean, who visited the Warwick district in late 1888 or early 1889. Assmanshausen was then one of the oldest vineyards in the district, and Kircher, with wine exports to Scotland, was the only Queensland wine-maker then exporting to Britain or Europe.

By March 1901, the Assmanshausen vineyard still comprised just , but Kircher was devoting most of his time to wine production as distinct from general farming. The cellar was considered still one of the finest in the State, carrying on average about  of wine, with annual output averaging . Assmanshausen wine was seldom sold until it had aged 7 or 8 years, and was in demand throughout southern Queensland. Kircher had secured about 60 prizes and certificates for his wines, some awarded for exhibits sent interstate and to Britain and Europe. Both the winery and the vineyard were managed by Jacob Christian Barth, son of the Kirchers' adopted daughter, Mary Rickert of Warwick.

In March 1902 Assmanshausen Farm, Vineyard and Winery was advertised for sale. The property still comprised  of first-class agricultural land, 10 of which were under vines, and contained a substantial 8-roomed timber residence and a winery comprising a 3-floored stone cellar, attached to which was a timber and iron cellar. It failed to sell at this time, and following the death of Jacob Kircher on 30 April 1903, the property passed to a trustee, the Kirchers having no children. Following Mrs Kircher's death in 1912, title passed in 1915 to an American nephew, Michael Kircher, who had been managing the winery since , prior to Jacob's death. In the early 20th century, following the federation of the Australian colonies and the removal of interstate tariffs, Queensland wine production declined in the face of strong competition from more established wine producers in South Australia and New South Wales. Henri Macquarie Serisier of New South Wales was associated with Assmanshausen from , and in 1920 purchased the vineyard and winery from Michael Kircher for . Serisier was the son of Jean Emile Serisier, a successful Dubbo (New South Wales) vigneron, and had both Australian and European experience of viticulture and wine- making. He changed the famous Assmanshausen name to Toolburra Vineyards, and undertook extensive new plantings, many of which were table grapes. By 1922 he had about  under grapes, and was expecting to produce about  of wine that season - principally ports, muscat, madeira, sweet sherry, claret and hock.

HM Serisier remained at Toolburra Vineyards until a few years before his death in 1942, but in 1932 transferred the property to his son, Kelvin Eugene. KE Serisier sustained Toolburra Vineyards throughout the 1930s, but with the onset of the Second World War, when he joined the RAAF, the vineyard fell into decline and the winery ceased production in the early 1940s. At some period after the closure of the winery, the timber extension, and the shingled roof with its attic space, were demolished. The property remained with the Serisier family until 1980.

Description
The former Assmanshausen Winery and Residence are situated on a low ridge just north of the intersection of Sandy Creek and Serisier Roads about  northwest of Warwick. The Sandy Creek district retains its rural character.

Winery

The winery is situated a little to the northeast of the residence, on the same low ridge. It is a rectangular structure of dressed local sandstone, aligned lengthwise on an east–west axis, comprising a ground-level workroom and a deep cellar. It has a low-pitched roof of galvanised iron, replacing an earlier steeply-pitched shingled roof, evidence of which can be seen in markings and cuttings on surviving beams and plates. Along the southern side is a skillion-roofed, open- sided extension with timber posts, in the place of the former roof overhang. At the western end is a small sandstone extension with a separate skillion roof and a large timber door, set one course above ground level. The extension gives access to both levels of the winery - up one more course to the workroom and down a steep timber stair to the cellar. At the eastern end of the workroom are large, timber double doors, again set above ground level. On the northern side of the building is a small, skillion-roofed later extension in brick. There are small, formerly shuttered windows along the northern and southern sides of the building, for ventilation rather than light. One of these on the northern side has been converted into a doorway, to provide access from the workroom to the brick extension.

Internally, the structure retains much of the original timbering, including heavy, square-hewn timber beams and posts. The wide timber boards of the workroom floor form the ceiling of the cellar. At the western end, the floor joists are early split logs; those at the eastern end of the building are later milled timber. There is an opening in the workroom floor midway along the southern side, sufficiently large to enable barrels or butts to be lowered into the cellar below. The workroom roof structure is of much later milled timber, and is unlined.

The cellar is accessed from the stair at the western end of the building. It has an earth floor, with a number of depressions possibly indicating where the barrel racks were positioned. There are 6 air shafts built into the walls of the cellar - two each in the northern, southern and eastern walls. These slope upwards to just above ground level, and help regulate the temperature to a constant c50? Fahrenheit.

The workroom is utilised as a storage shed but the cellar is vacant. No equipment associated with wine production remains in the building. None of the vineyard, which was planted along the ridge close to the winery, survives. However, considerable potential exists to search for archaeological evidence of the verandahs which formerly surrounded the stone structure, and of the late 19th century timber extension to the eastern end of the winery.

Residence

The house is situated close to Serisier Rd, but facing south toward Sandy Creek Road, in grounds containing mature trees and shrubs [including conifers and pepperinas (Schinus molle)], and early terracing. The residence is of timber construction, with a double hipped roof of galvanised iron, and rests on low timber stumps. The timber frame is clad externally with 8" pine chamferboards. The core of the house is surrounded by deep verandahs, which have been enclosed across the back (north) and at the northern ends of the side verandahs. These have roofs separate to the main roof, and where un- enclosed, are supported by chamfered timber posts with timber capitals. Along the front and western verandah low benches have been constructed between the verandah posts. There is no evidence of an earlier balustrade. Steps lead from the front [south] verandah to a garden terrace with flagstone path and early stone-edged flower beds.

The core comprises four rooms and a generous entrance vestibule, accessed from a central front entrance. To each side of the vestibule is a bedroom with large, double-hung sash windows opening onto the front and side verandahs, and beyond the vestibule is the parlour. Opening off the parlour, to the east, is the dining room. These rooms have particularly fine cedar joinery, including door and window architraves, cornices, skirting boards, a decorative timber arch between vestibule and parlour, and elegant timber fireplace surrounds. There are two double chimneys and a fireplace in each of the four main rooms, with original plaster to the chimneys. Throughout, the original pine lining to walls and ceilings - 8" deep, beaded tongue and groove boarding, horizontally laid on the walls - has been masked by later masonite sheeting with timber cover strips and wallpaper. Lights above some of the doors have early decorative wax paper. Several of the rooms have early decorative pressed metal cornices or pelmets above the windows.

French doors open off the western end of the parlour onto the verandah, which has been enclosed to make a small room. The rear verandah has been enclosed and extended to house a modern kitchen and living room, replacing an earlier rear kitchen wing and a bedroom wing. The rear extension is accessed from the core via the original central back door out of the parlour and the original doorway from the dining room. Another door opening from the parlour to the former rear verandah has been sheeted over. The northern end of the eastern verandah has been similarly enclosed and extended, to house a guest bedroom, bathroom, and laundry, and to provide walk-in closet space for the front bedroom on the east side. A side door from the dining room now opens into this enclosed verandah space.

The grounds at the rear of the house contain mature trees and shrubs and several timber structures associated with the homestead, including a meat-house and wash-house. The house block is defined by fencing - a three-railed timber fence, painted white, along the western boundary addressing Serisier Road; a similar two-railed fence along the southern boundary; and wire fencing along the eastern and northern boundaries. Two large pine trees, important to the garden setting of the residence, lie just outside the southern fence.

Heritage listing
The former Assmanshausen Winery was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on 6 January 1999 having satisfied the following criteria.

The place is important in demonstrating the evolution or pattern of Queensland's history.

The former Assmanshausen Winery () is important for its association with, and as a role model for, and as surviving evidence of, one of the earliest economic activities on the southern Darling Downs - the establishment of vineyards and wineries. The finely-finished house (extant by 1881) illustrates the success of the winery, and the desire of its immigrant owners to establish themselves in their adopted country.

The place demonstrates rare, uncommon or endangered aspects of Queensland's cultural heritage.

Despite the loss of the upper level, the sandstone winery survives as a rare and important example of its type.

The place has potential to yield information that will contribute to an understanding of Queensland's history.

The place also has the potential to reveal, through archaeological investigation, further information about the nature of the structure, and to contribute to our understanding of wineries and wine-making in Queensland.

The place is important in demonstrating the principal characteristics of a particular class of cultural places.

It retains much early fabric (including the dressed sandstone and heavy adzed beams and posts), and design elements (including the underground sandstone cellar, air shafts and small shuttered windows in the upper level), which contribute to our understanding of the construction and functioning of a 19th-century Queensland winery. The addressing of temperature control through design and materials is particularly interesting. Despite the loss of the kitchen and bedroom wings at the rear, the residence core remains important in illustrating the principal characteristics of a well-detailed farmhouse, in which the quality of finish is well above the usual. The house retains its early form and most of the original fabric, including particularly fine cedar joinery and fireplace surrounds, and early pressed metal cornices above the windows.

The place is important because of its aesthetic significance.

Both the winery and the residence have considerable aesthetic appeal. The house, with its early form, wide verandahs, red roof and white chimneys, set amid a garden of mature trees and shrubs, is a local landmark. The winery has an aesthetic appeal engendered by the rusticity of the fabric, the atmospheric underground cellar, and the pleasant rural setting.

The place has a strong or special association with a particular community or cultural group for social, cultural or spiritual reasons.

Assmanshausen Winery has strong social significance - it was a popular tourist attraction in its time, and the names Assmanshausen and Toolburra Vineyards are well known in Warwick history.

The place has a special association with the life or work of a particular person, group or organisation of importance in Queensland's history.

The place is important for its strong association with Jacob Kircher's significant contribution to the development of the wine industry in southern Queensland, from the 1860s until his death in 1903, and illustrates the important contribution of early German immigrants to the evolution and development of Queensland.

Mark Stedman - Tuesday August 13, 2019
On August 13th, 1921 Roscoe founders George C. Buik and John P. O'Connell set out with a mission. They wanted to fill a gap in what they recognized as a fast-growing, niche market in an increasingly industrialized Chicago. Not only were they determined to improve the lives and businesses of their customers, they sought to build a company culture of excellence.
Today, 98 years later, we are celebrating the team members and customers who have helped keep their vision going for nearly a century, even as the industry has undergone a dramatic consolidation.
Generations of Pride
"When I started in the business full time in 1982, there were 80 operators in the (linen and industrial laundry) market," says Roscoe's third-generation owner and President, Jim Buik. "Now there are about 10. We are the last industrial independent supplier in Chicago."
In addition to many customers' preference for the more personal service of a locally-owned uniform supplier, Roscoe's longevity can be attributed to the commitment and care shown to both customers and team members, as well as a focus on continuous improvement. That focus has driven efforts like ISO certification, environmental initiatives and state-of-the-art sorting system technology. Buik notes that both he and his father Don shared a predisposition toward the early-adoption of technology. His father installed one of the first-generation of "mini" computers to automate the company's billing system. "It filled a 20 by 20 room," Buik recalls.
While much has changed over the years, we're just as proud of the things that have stayed the same.
Operations Team Leader Miriam Avila, who celebrated her 25th year with the company this year, says a family-like atmosphere and a culture of support is the reason Roscoe's "20-Year Club" has so many members.
"The one thing I can tell you that I really love about this place is that – even with the better technology and the way society itself has changed – the culture here at Roscoe is just the same as it was 25 years ago," says Avila.
Reflecting on Roscoe: 98th Edition
This last year has been full of achievements both inside and out. Our team members continue to be an enormous source of pride as our sales growth continues to reinforce a focus on high-quality service and responsiveness, cutting-edge technology and responsible practices.
"I really love the people that I work with, the values that they have, the values that we share," says Buik. "The work is good and important, as is the economic value we bring to so many families even beyond the realm of Roscoe. We really make a profound impact."
Approaching a Century of Success
But even as we celebrate our 98th anniversary, we're beginning to make plans for an even bigger milestone in 2021.
Our 100th anniversary celebration will feature a grand event downtown, where Roscoe team members, customers, vendors and guests of honor will gather to celebrate a remarkable history that began when O'Connell and Buik purchased the Very Best Laundry at Roscoe and Southport 98 years ago.
As we look forward to celebrating a century of achievement, we can't help but feel that George and John would be proud of the team members who have made this possible and possibly a little bit amazed at how far their company has come. And of course, we couldn't have done it without the loyalty of our customers, who are some of the hardest working people in Chicago.
"We all stand on the shoulders of those who came before us," says Buik. "Those great people are allowing us to achieve this milestone."
To our team members and clients, we thank you for joining us along this journey. Happy 98th Anniversary!

Good question, and the answer is no.
It's because buying a luxury car is an emotional decision. Though logically you know luxury cars have a lot of incredible features, the biggest underlying reason for buying them is because of the way it makes you feel.
1.) Emotion requires less effort than logic. Logic solicits cognitive effort, whereas emotion is automatic and even subconscious to a degree.
2.) Emotion-based arguments are often easier to recall than logic-based arguments (in fact, "when we read a story, not only do the language parts of our brains light up, but any other part of the brain that we would use if we were actually experiencing what we're reading about becomes activated as well." says Rachel Gillett in Fast Company).
3.) Emotion almost always leads more quickly to cognitive change than logic does.
But, while emotion is often the first step in the decision-making process, it's generally not the last. "Without emotion, we are biologically incapable of making decisions. Logic is often the last step in the process." – Janet Crawford is one of the world's pioneers in applying neuroscience to business. Her firm, Cascadance, leverages biological design to improve individual and team performance.
Logic comes in for backup to rationalize the decision that you emotionally want to make. You buy that Tesla because it makes you feel like a rockstar, but justify that decision because it doesn't use gas, is better for the environment, and comes with an array of other features that make your life easier.
While emotion can spur your audience to action (and increase conversions), logic follows up quickly behind to reinsure the decision-maker that the decision was right, even after the temporary heightened emotion has faded.
For content marketing, this is why having a moving anecdote should be quickly followed up with statistics to support it. And with print ads, this is why when you look past the captivating visuals, you see copy that supports the ad and drives you to action.

> Do you know something they didn't?
Logic is King. Now and then. Scenario 2 is not believable.
In your article you include the nfr sign in figures 2, 3 and 4, but not in figure 6. If Vyse found the numbers in an upright position as you claim (fig. 6-1) the original orientation of the nfr sign would be horizontal.
Given that the nfr sign is a vertical sign, and also given your "absence of evidence is evidence of absence"- approach, have you found other examples of horizontal orientated nfr and w3s signs?

An early-season tornado outbreak impacted the Southeastern United States on January 12, 2023. The result of a mid-level trough moving through, moisture and the presence of a strong low-level jet aided in the development of numerous severe and tornadic thunderstorms. Early in the outbreak, a strong EF2 tornado caused considerable damage in Winston County, Alabama, while another EF2 tornado struck just south of Greensboro. A destructive high-end EF2 tornado struck Selma, causing widespread damage and two injuries. The same storm produced a long-lived EF3 tornado that moved through or near Old Kingston, Titus, Equality, and Lake Martin, resulting in seven fatalities and several injuries in Autauga County alone. Another EF2 tornado from the storm struck areas in or around Five Points and Standing Rock before crossing into Georgia. After the dissipation of that tornado, nine more tornadoes, five of which were strong, caused heavy damage across west-central Georgia, especially in LaGrange, Griffin, and Experiment, the second one of which was impacted by four tornadoes in the span of 10 minutes, including two that were rated EF2 and EF3 respectively. Another EF2 tornado from the storm caused major damage and another fatality in the Jackson Lake area as well; an indirect death from the tornado also occurred the following day. Elsewhere, other tornadoes caused damage in Sumter and Mobile counties in Alabama, as well as parts of Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, and the Carolinas. In all, 41 tornadoes were confirmed.

Meteorological synopsis

On January 11, the Storm Prediction Center outlined a level 1/Marginal risk across the Mid-South valid for the overnight and early morning hours. Although the environment was initially capped, conditions were expected to become more conducive for severe weather given the approach of a mid-level trough and a gradually moistening airmass. A more substantive threat for organized severe weather evolved on January 12, when the organization issued a level 3/Enhanced risk centered along central and eastern Alabama and northwestern portions of Georgia. Here, numerical weather prediction models indicated the presence of 6.5 C/km mid-level lapse rates and 500-1000 J/kg convective available potential energy (CAPE) values supportive of transient supercells and bowing segments. As such, a large 5% risk for tornadoes was introduced for most of the lower Tennessee Valley, including portions of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, southern Tennessee, and northwestern South Carolina.

As the day advanced, a more focused corridor for enhanced tornado potential became evident across central Alabama and northwestern Georgia, where effective storm-relative helicity – a measure of the potential for updrafts in supercells – topped 300 m2/s2 and CAPE values rose into the 1,000-1,500 J/kg range. Despite these favorable parameters, the possibility for strong tornadoes, above EF2 intensity, was not included in this outlook. However, as the morning advanced, a defined line of severe thunderstorms with embedded supercell structures and multiple discrete supercells developed across the highlighted area. Multiple tornadoes, some of which were significant, touched down and caused extensive damage. Numerous PDS tornado warnings were issued for the towns of Heiberger, Selma, and Movico in Alabama as large and destructive tornadoes were reported. The same storm that hit Selma prompted tornado emergencies for Autauga, Elmore, Chilton, Coosa, and Tallapoosa counties before crossing the Alabama–Georgia border to continue northeast into Georgia. As the event unfolded, the SPC introduced a 10% hatched risk for tornadoes in their 20:00 UTC outlook across east-central Alabama and western Georgia. The long-tracked supercell (originating in Louisiana) that produced the Selma tornado, as well as the deadly Autauga County tornado, produced more tornadoes as it progressed to the northeast; these included an EF2 tornado that crossed from Chambers County, Alabama into Troup County, Georgia, another EF2 tornado that caused severe damage in the southern part of LaGrange, and a third EF2 tornado that caused severe damage in Meriwether County. The storm's mesocyclone than broadened out and produced four tornadoes on the west side of Griffin, including one that was rated high-end EF2 and another that was rated high-end EF3.  In total, the National Weather Service issued 221 severe thunderstorm warnings, 68 tornado warnings, and three tornado emergencies during the severe weather outbreak.

Confirmed tornadoes

January 12 event

Selma, Alabama

This large, destructive high-end EF2 tornado caused major damage in the city of Selma. The tornado first touched just northeast of Orrville near the intersection of SR 22 and County Road 999 at 12:04 p.m. CST (18:04 UTC). Moving northeastward along SR 22, the tornado damaged several mobile homes and pushed them off their foundations. A frame home sustained minor damage, some trees and power poles were downed in this area as well, and damage along this initial segment of the path was rated EF1. EF1 damage continued as the tornado impacted Beloit, where a church had its steeple and part of its roof blown off, homes sustained roof damage, and trees were snapped. After causing additional tree damage along SR 22, the tornado began to rapidly intensify as it approached the southwestern city limits of Selma, and many large hardwood and softwood trees were snapped at EF2 intensity in this area. The now strong tornado then crossed SR 219 as it entered the southwest side of Selma, causing significant damage along Old Orville Road. Multiple houses were heavily damaged and had their roofs torn off along this corridor, and a few sustained some loss of exterior walls. Severe tree damage occurred as well, as many large trees were snapped or uprooted in residential areas. Reaching high-end EF2 strength, the tornado struck the Crosspoint Christian Daycare along Cooper Drive, inflicting severe structural damage to the building, which sustained collapse of its roof and several brick exterior walls. At the time of the tornado, 70 children were inside the daycare along with staff workers. One baby received a minor cut from the tornado, with no other injuries occurring at that location. The nearby Crosspoint Christian Church had a substantial amount of metal roofing torn off, and debris was scattered throughout the area. EF2 damage continued beyond this point as the tornado moved northeastward along West Dallas Avenue, inflicting significant structural damage to homes. An ophthalmologist's office near Office Park Circle was severely damaged and had much of its roof torn off, while many large trees were snapped or uprooted, some of which landed on houses.

Further to the northeast, high-end EF2 damage occurred at the Selma Country Club, where the clubhouse building suffered major damage to its roof and exterior walls, a few other buildings on the property also had extensive damage, several extremely large hardwood trees were blown down, and many softwood trees were snapped. Maintaining high-end EF2 intensity, the tornado then struck the northern part of downtown Selma. Damage here mainly consisted of numerous of trees being snapped or uprooted, some of which fell on homes, and many homes and other buildings that had their roofs and some exterior walls removed. A couple of older residences that were built on brick piling foundations collapsed, cars were flipped, signs were destroyed, and numerous power poles were snapped. The historic Reformed Presbyterian Church was badly damaged, and its adjacent church school was almost completely destroyed. As the tornado crossed over Broad St (US 80/SR 22), a strip mall had much of its roof torn off, and a nearby metal warehouse building sustained major damage, with metal framing being twisted and failure of x-braces observed. Apartment buildings were also badly damaged, and debris from structures was strewn across streets, or left tangled in power lines or wrapped around trees. Past the downtown area, the tornado weakened slightly to mid-range EF2 strength as it crossed Marie Foster Street and moved through neighborhoods in the northeastern part of Selma, where many homes and apartment buildings had roofs and exterior walls torn off, and many trees and power lines were downed. Crossing SR 41, the tornado moved out of Selma and maintained EF2 intensity as it moved to the northeast, though damage in this area was limited to downed trees. As it crossed SR 14, an outbuilding was completely destroyed and a metal free-standing pole was bent to the ground, with damage in this area being rated EF2. Some re-intensification was observed as the tornado then impacted a small residential area along Parkway Drive, where a few houses had roofs torn off with some collapse of exterior walls noted. Another outbuilding in this area was completely destroyed, trees were downed, and damage was rated high-end EF2. Just past this area, the tornado weakened to EF1 strength as it impacted a FEMA trailer storage facility along Selfield Road, where multiple unanchored trailers were damaged, flipped, or destroyed. A final area of EF2 damage occurred nearby, where the Dallas County Jail suffered extensive damage to its roof and fencing. Weakening back to EF1 intensity, the tornado then crossed SR 14 again, snapping trees and damaging some outbuildings. The tornado weakened further as it passed south of Manila, causing minor EF0 tree damage along this segment of the path. It inflicted EF0 damage to a house and dissipated as it crossed SR 140 to the southeast of Burnsville at 12:31 p.m. CST (18:31 UTC), just before reaching the Autauga County line. The tornado was on the ground for , resulting in two injuries.

Old Kingston–Titus–Equality–Lake Martin–Penton, Alabama

A long-tracked and intense EF3 tornado began in Autauga County, Alabama, nine minutes after the EF2 Selma tornado dissipated. The large multiple-vortex tornado prompted the issuance of three tornado emergencies just north of areas struck by tornadoes 10 days earlier. The tornado first touched down near Independence at 12:40 p.m. CST (18:40 UTC). It initially only caused very minor EF0 tree limb damage as it moved northeastward through sparsely-populated areas. After crossing US 82, the tornado quickly intensified to EF1 strength as it moved northeastward along County Road 40, heavily damaging a home, rolling a shed across the road, and causing tree damage. Continuing northeastward into the Old Kingston community, the tornado rapidly intensified to EF3 strength as it crossed County Road 43. Several mobile homes were obliterated and swept away, with debris being scattered long distances across fields. A frame from one mobile home was thrown  into an open field. The tornado threw multiple vehicles, tossing one truck  through the air and leaving a crater where it impacted the ground. Many large trees were snapped and denuded as well, with some debarked observed. Just to the northeast, the tornado crossed Sandy Ridge Road, where numerous double-wide and single-wide mobile homes were completely obliterated, more vehicles were tossed, and many trees were shredded and partially debarked. Five people were killed in this area in different manufactured homes that were swept away. EF3 damage continued just northeast of this area, as a large metal power pole was bent to the ground near County Road 21. Two nearby frame homes had much of their roofs torn off, with the damage to those residences rated EF2. Next encountering County Road 140, the now large tornado continued to produce EF3 damage as more mobile homes were completely swept away. The contents of at least four homes were blown over  to the north, leaving only empty foundations behind. Two more fatalities occurred in separate homes that were obliterated. The tornado continued to throw vehicles considerable distances, including one pickup truck that had its cab separated from the bed, while many trees were snapped or sheared off. This included entire stands of pine trees that were mowed down east of County Road 140 and along County Road 42. Based on the damage scene and contextual evidence, it was acknowledged by damage surveyors that the tornado may have had stronger winds here. However, as the only structures that were destroyed in this area were mobile homes, the highest wind speed estimate that could be applied was , which is mid-range EF3.

Beyond this point, the tornado narrowed some, but maintained low-end EF3 intensity as it moved northeastward, snapping and debarking dozens of hardwood trees. A two-story home on the west side of County Road 57 had much of its second floor destroyed, with multiple exterior walls knocked down on both the first and second floors. The tornado weakened slightly to high-end EF2 intensity after crossing the road, tearing the roofs off of two site-built homes and destroying a large outbuilding structure. A few other homes were damaged to a lesser degree in this area, and large trees were snapped. After downing additional trees, the tornado continued at high-end EF2 strength as it crossed over County Road 62. A house in this area sustained major structural damage, losing its roof and some exterior walls, with several walls from the central part of the house being destroyed and strewn into the back yard. A nearby mobile home was destroyed at high-end EF1 strength, and some other site-built homes sustained less severe damage. The tornado then briefly weakened to high-end EF1 intensity, with damage being limited to downed trees, but reached EF2 intensity again and grew in size as it crossed I-65 and US 31 in the Pine Level community south of Marbury. Several homes sustained roof damage, outbuildings were damaged or destroyed, a mobile home was rolled off its foundation and destroyed, and numerous trees were snapped or uprooted in this area. Continuing to the northeast, the tornado produced additional EF2 damage as it moved through the Pine Flat community. Multiple site-built homes had their roofs partially or completely removed, and a mobile home was swept away and destroyed. The Wadsworth Baptist Church, housed in a large metal building, sustained considerable damage as well. Additional EF2 damage continued beyond Pine Flat as a house had its roof torn off and another home sustained roof and exterior wall loss. Numerous trees were snapped or uprooted in this area, and two mobile homes were destroyed.

Continuing at EF2 strength, the tornado crossed into northwestern Elmore County and passed near Lightwood, where more homes were mostly or entirely unroofed, mobile homes were destroyed, and many trees were downed. The tornado briefly weakened to EF1 strength as it crossed the Coosa River, downing multiple trees in a wooded area before it reached EF2 intensity again north of Titus, snapping countless pine trees and unroofing another home as it crossed County Road 29 and Grays Ferry Road. The tornado again weakened to EF1 intensity, downing more trees as it crossed into Coosa County. The tornado then became slightly larger and re-intensified back to EF2 strength as it crossed over US 231, snapping many large trees and inflicting heavy roof damage to a home along County Road 304. Just past this point, the tornado rapidly intensified again as it approached Equality, and a large swath of trees was completely mowed down along McKissick Road. All trees in the center of the path were snapped close to their bases, and some debarking was noted. This area of intense tree damage was given a low-end EF3 rating. The tornado then widened some more as it continued northeastward, causing EF2-level tree damage before strengthening back to EF3 intensity along County Roads 14 and 18 northwest of Equality. Several vehicles were moved or flipped, numerous trees were snapped, and a few site-built homes sustained major structural damage, including a poorly anchored house that was completely leveled.

The tornado then quickly narrowed and weakened back to EF1 intensity as it crossed over SR 9 to the north of Equality, where a mobile home and a site-built home suffered roof damage. The tornado continued into Tallapoosa County as it maintained EF1 strength. Damage along this portion of the path was almost entirely limited to downed trees, though at least one home sustained minor roof damage. The tornado then grew in size again and caused additional EF1 damage as it moved through Wind Creek State Park and over Elkahatchee Creeek just south of Alexander City, snapping more trees before shrinking and re-strengthening back to EF2 intensity as it crossed the Tallapoosa River along the north side of Lake Martin near the US 280 bridge. Many homes were damaged at this location, including several that had their roofs ripped off, and a few that had some loss of exterior walls as well. Boat houses were also destroyed, and dozens of large hardwood trees were snapped and uprooted. The heavy damage in this area was partly attributed to the tornado's interaction with the lake surface, as well as the exposed nature of the homes, since most of the structures inland seemed to be "sheltered" by adjacent heavily wooded areas. This was also the last area of EF2 damage from the tornado. After crossing US 280 near Sturdivant, the tornado weakened significantly to EF0 strength, snapping tree branches and uprooting softwood trees. South of Horseshoe Bend National Military Park near Sessions, the tornado reached EF1 intensity again, snapping or uprooting several trees, damaging outbuildings, and inflicting minor damage to homes. The tornado then weakened back to EF0 intensity, inflicting minor damage to trees and mobile homes several miles south of Daviston, before restrengthening back to EF1 intensity for the last time as it moved into Chambers County, snapping or uprooting several trees. The tornado then weakened to high-end EF0 strength south of Union Hill. It continued to inflict minor damage to outbuildings and downed more trees before striking Penton, where some EF0 tree damage occurred. The tornado then dissipated just east of Penton,  west-northwest of White Plains at 2:08 p.m. CST (20:08 UTC) after traveling . A total of seven people were killed by this tornado, and at least 16 others were injured.

Hollonville–Griffin–Experiment–Locust Grove, Georgia

As the EF2 Alps tornado was occluding and weakening, a new circulation southeast of it within the same parent supercell produced this large, intense rain-wrapped tornado that touched down just a mile west of the community of Hollonville in Pike County along SR 362 at 4:10 p.m. EST (21:11 UTC). After causing EF0 tree and roof damage at the beginning of its path, the tornado strengthened to EF1 intensity as it continued to the northeast, snapping and uprooting numerous trees. Around this time, the broad mesocyclone responsible for this tornado produced three other tornadoes in quick succession, while this tornado abruptly turned to the north-northeast and weakened as crossed into Spalding County, producing only sporadic EF0 tree damage. As it reached Blanton Mill Road, the tornado made a sharp to turn to the east and strengthened back to EF1 strength, snapping and uprooting and causing major roof damage to an outbuilding on Rover-Zetella Road as it entered the west edge of Griffin. As it began grow in size after crossing the road, the tornado rapidly intensified to EF3 strength as it entered a small residential subdivision along West Road and Kendall Drive. Several homes were either heavily damaged or completely destroyed in this area, including two poorly anchored homes that were leveled and swept off their foundations. A resident inside one of the homes took shelter in a bathtub which, along with all the plumbing, was ripped off the foundation and thrown into nearby woods, though he was not injured. Intense tree damage was also noted in this area, and winds were estimated to have reached . The tornado then absorbed two of the other tornadoes to its south and weakened to EF2 strength, but grew to over a mile-wide as it crossed SR 16 and moved through additional residential areas in the western part of Griffin. Many trees were downed, and homes in neighborhoods in The Club at Shoal Creek area and along North Pine Hill Drive sustained EF1 to EF2 damage. Maintaining its strength, the tornado then moved into Experiment, an unincorporated community located on the north side of Griffin near the University of Georgia campus.

Multiple homes and some businesses in Experiment suffered extensive damage, with the damage in this area being rated EF1 to EF2. Many power lines and trees were downed, and several large trees fell onto homes, causing major structural damage. A Hobby Lobby had a large portion of its roof torn off, and also sustained partial collapse of masonry exterior walls on the northeast side of the building. Debris was strewn throughout the area, and multiple vehicles were flipped and tossed. Damage to the Hobby Lobby building was rated high-end EF2, with winds estimated at . The UGA campus suffered EF0 damage, and a weather station in the area recorded a  wind gust as the storm passed by, while another at the UGA Dempsey Farm recorded a wind gust of  before the anemometer instrument was blown off the tower. To the northeast of Experiment, the tornado produced high-end EF1 damage as it moved through the northeastern fringes of Griffin, downing many trees and inflicting moderate to severe damage to homes and other structures near East McIntosh Road. Damage then became less severe and more sporadic as the tornado exited the Griffin area, and the damage path narrowed as it crossed North McDonough Road and Amelia Road. The tornado continued at EF1 intensity as it moved into Henry County. Crossing I-75, the tornado strengthened back to high-end EF1 intensity as it struck two neighborhoods on the south side of Locust Grove. Numerous homes were damaged by tornadic winds or falling trees in this area. The tornado crossed over US 23 and entered neighborhoods in the eastern part of Locust Grove, where more trees were downed, and additional homes were damaged. The tornado exited Locust Grove and continued to the northeast, causing more EF1 damage along Peeksville Road before weakening to EF0 strength as it crossed Wolf Creek Road. The damage path of the tornado became less defined and dissipated near Collins Way at 4:45 p.m. EST (21:45 UTC). Damage assessments indicated that approximately 1,465 homes were affected in the city of Griffin, and 754 were affected in other areas of Spalding County, with at least 250+ that were destroyed or sustained significant damage. The tornado was on the ground for a total of  and injured 18 people.

East Griffin–Jenkinsburg–Jackson Lake, Georgia

This large and strong tornado was spawned by a secondary circulation within the same parent supercell that produced the EF3 Griffin tornado to its north, paralleling the path of the stronger tornado. It first touched down just southeast of East Griffin in Spalding County at 4:27 pm EST (21:27 UTC) and moved northeastward. It immediately reached EF1 strength and first snapped or uprooted multiple trees along Crouch Road and Wild Plum Road before striking a Rinnai Corporation building, damaging the roof and exterior walls, and blowing out several windows. The tornado then quickly intensified to high-end EF2 intensity as it crossed SR 16, and a well-built home in this area had severe roof and structural damage, while many large trees were snapped or uprooted as well. As the tornado continued northeastward, it weakened back to EF1 intensity, downing numerous trees as it approached I-75. As it crossed I-75, the tornado became the dominant circulation within the parent supercell as the EF3 Experiment tornado to the north began to occlude and weaken. As a result, this tornado's wind field grew in size as it moved into Butts County, producing high-end EF1 to low-end EF2 damage near Dean Patrick Road and England Chapel Road, as numerous trees were snapped or uprooted in this area. Maintaining its strength, the tornado continued to the northeast and inflicted considerable damage to several homes along Shiloah Road, Plaza Drive, and Smith Drive. The tornado then impacted Jenkinsburg, where trees were downed, and a large warehouse building was significantly damaged along US 23. The roof and exterior walls of the structure were severely damaged, with debris strewn across the roadway. Adjacent to the highway on the Norfolk Southern Railway line, three rail cars on a train were derailed. Some outbuilding structures were also damaged or destroyed, and damage in the Jenkinsburg area was rated high-end EF1 to low-end EF2. The tornado then weakened to EF1 strength as it continued to the northeast of town. The EF3 Griffin tornado to its north then dissipated at 4:45 p.m. EST (21:45 UTC), but another tornado, rated EF1, quickly formed from the remnant circulation four minutes later and paralleled this tornado for nearly  to the Jackson Lake area. The damage paths of the two tornadoes were right next to each other at times and covered a combined width of .

As this tornado passed south of Worthville, it quickly intensified back to EF2 strength, causing widespread significant damage to trees and homes in several neighborhoods along SR 36 west of Jackson Lake. One tree fell on a car on Haley Road, killing the passenger and critically injuring the driver. Maintaining EF2 intensity, the tornado then moved through the southern part Newton County and caused additional major damage to houses in several neighborhoods along the shore of Jackson Lake, both west of and along SR 212. The EF1 tornado to the north of this tornado then dissipated after the latter had entered Jasper County at 4:57 p.m. EST (21:57 UTC). This tornado then caused intermittent EF1 to low-end EF2 damage after crossing the county line. The Bear Creek Marina and several campers were destroyed along this segment of the path. The tornado then became weak, damaging more trees at EF0 intensity as it approached and crossed SR 11, before dissipating near Margery Lake at 5:01 pm EST (22:01 UTC). The tornado was on the ground for . In addition to the fatality, ten other people were injured. An indirect fatality was attributed to this tornado the following day when a state transportation worker was knocked out of a bucket truck by a falling tree limb while trying to restore powerlines after the storm in Jasper County.

Impacts
Alabama Governor Kay Ivey declared a state of emergency in Autauga, Chambers, Coosa, Dallas, Elmore and Tallapoosa counties, as did Georgia Governor Brian Kemp for the whole state. These declarations were followed on January 15 by a major disaster declaration in Alabama by President Biden, making federal funds available to victims of the storms (as well as affected local governments, organizations, and businesses) in Autauga and Dallas counties.

Casualties
At least nine fatalities resulted, eight of which were direct. Seven occurred in mobile homes in Old Kingston, Alabama from an EF3 tornado; the other occurred in Butts County, Georgia when an EF2 tornado knocked a tree down on a car, killing a five-year old passenger and critically injuring the parent driving. This tornado was also responsible for an indirect fatality the following day when a lineman was knocked out of a bucket truck after being struck by a large tree branch while attempting to restore powerlines in Jasper County. Multiple injuries also occurred. An Alabama state trooper was hospitalized when his patrol vehicle was struck by a falling tree.

Closures
In anticipation of severe weather, multiple school districts closed early in Alabama and Georgia. The University of Georgia's Griffin campus closed because of damage to buildings and trees on campus from an EF3 tornado.

Damage
Approximately 37,000 people in Alabama and more than 78,000 in Georgia were without power by the evening of January 12, figures which included but were not limited to severe weather outages.
