The Arctic Storm™ 30 snow blower's serrated steel augers will cut through heavy, wet, deep or drifted snow with ease. The self-propleled drive system with Touch 'n Turn® power steering gives you speed control and added maneuverability. Just One Hand® Operation lets you guide the two-stage snow blower with one hand, freeing the other hand to adjust the chute and pitch with a 2-way joystick control. The in-dash headlight and reflective stripes will help you to clear snow in low-visibility conditions, andthe heated hand grips will add comfort in cold weather.
Arctic Storm 30 Snow Blower is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 4.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gravel guy from USING ON GRAVEL DRIVEWAY This review is for the 30" version of this Troy-Built large-frame snow thrower. Both the 30" and 34" Arctic Storm snowblowers have similar construction and features. The 30" has a 357 cc engine, while the 34" has a 420 cc engine. One reason that I bought this snow blower was because it was advertised as being suitable for use on gravel driveways. You can set the skid shoes on the bottom of the auger housing (or bucket) to elevate the auger two or three inches above the ground, which is supposed to keep the auger out of the gravel. But my machine started picking up a lot of gravel and blowing the gravel out the chute, which was kinda scary, and it caused my machine to break down. If you plan to use a snow blower on a gravel driveway, you might be able to learn from my experience. This was the first time I had ever used a snow blower, and I didn't understand what was happening, so I continued plowing until the auger stopped turning because a rock became lodged between the auger and auger housing, which jammed the auger and burned up the auger/impeller drive belt. The chute directional control stopped working at about the same time, and I suspect a small piece of gravel probably jammed it as well. I took the snow blower to a local small-engine repair shop, which repaired it before the next snowfall. Reflecting back on what had happened, I believe my driveway was just too soft and the skid shoes at the bottom of the auger housing dug into the gravel, which lowered the level of the auger so that it was picking up gravel--especially on curves and turns. This was the first snowfall of the season, and the ground wasn't frozen yet. On the afternoon when I plowed, the temperature was several degrees above freezing. The next time it snowed, I arose before dawn (usually the coldest time of day) and plowed while the temperature was still below freezing. This time the auger picked up very little gravel, and I knew enough to lift the bucket when it started to do so, and gravel wasn't a problem. This is when I learned that the built-in headlight on the snow thrower is ineffective. The light's beam is blocked by the chute and the chute-operator housing. The headlight wasn't totally useless, however, because it illuminated the ground at the sides of the machine, so I could see the previous plowed furrow, and I tried to align the machine's current swath to the previous furrow (while not being able to see ahead of the machine). Following the next two storms, I plowed during daylight hours shortly after dawn, and the machine did a good job both times. It only takes two round trips to sufficiently clear our long driveway, plus five brief passes in front of the carport. About a half hour of work in all. I have since bought a battery-powered work light with a magnetic base, which sticks to the top of the auger housing at the front of the machine, but haven't yet used it. Using this snow blower was kinda fun. Actually, I didn't want to stop plowing when the job was done. It's nice to be in control of when my driveway gets cleared, rather than waiting for someone else to come and plow it for me. And now I don't have to shovel by hand the bank of snow left by a snow plow in front of the carport and at the street. The snow thrower usually starts on a cold morning with just one pull of the starter cord, sometimes two. (When plugged into a standard 120v electrical outlet, the blower can also be started with the push of a button.) The machine turns on a dime, so you can reverse direction without the need to carve a big loop...just make your turn at a slow forward speed or else the machine will swing you around with it.The thumb-controlled joystick rotates the chute discharge direction quickly and effortlessly. The heated hand grips are great when it's cold outside. Recently, I checked a few video reviews on the Internet regarding both the 30" and 34" Arctic Storm snowblowers. Experienced reviewers seemed to be impressed with these machine's features, ease of operation, power, and build quality--apparently a significant improvement over earlier models. And the 30" machine received a top ranking from Consumer Reports. These reviews, coupled with my own recent experience, have made me feel much more confident about my purchase of the Troy-Bilt Arctic Storm. Plus the price compares favorably with similar machines.
Rated 5 out of 5 by chetw from missing trim Brand new, but missing the red strips on the side of blower.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rickyskitchen from Awsome snowblower Had this for 3 years now no problems. I bought it because my old sears one did not throw the snow far enough but this one throws It much farther. This is the best snowblower that I have had highly recommend !
Rated 5 out of 5 by RustyInBend from In a word ... AWESOME !!! Love it ... absolutely love it. Did a lot of research before buying, and the Consumer Reports review convinced me. Tons of favorite features, topped by Electric Start, Heated Grips, Joystick Chute Control, and One-Hand Turning. I've only used it a couple of time, but thus far, I'm really impressed with how well it's made, and how easy it is to operate. It's a snow-swallowing monster, and exactly what I needed for my Oregon Ranch. Highly recommended, from every standpoint. Haven't seen anything yet that I could even remotely identify as a "minus".

Thomas Rivers (* 18. September 1819 im Franklin County, Tennessee; † 18. März 1863 bei Somerville, Tennessee) war ein US-amerikanischer Politiker. Zwischen 1855 und 1857 vertrat er den Bundesstaat Tennessee im US-Repräsentantenhaus.

Werdegang
Thomas Rivers genoss eine gute Grundschulausbildung. Danach absolvierte er das La Grange College in Alabama. Nach einem anschließenden Jurastudium und seiner im Jahr 1839 erfolgten Zulassung als Rechtsanwalt begann er in Somerville in seinem neuen Beruf zu arbeiten. Rivers diente viele Jahre in der Staatsmiliz von Tennessee, in der er bis zum Brigadegeneral aufstieg.

In den 1850er Jahren schloss er sich der kurzlebigen American Party an. Bei den Kongresswahlen des Jahres 1854 wurde er als deren Kandidat im zehnten Wahlbezirk von Tennessee in das US-Repräsentantenhaus in Washington, D.C. gewählt, wo er am 4. März 1855 die Nachfolge von Frederick Perry Stanton antrat. Da er im Jahr 1856 auf eine weitere Kandidatur verzichtete, konnte er bis zum 3. März 1857 nur eine Legislaturperiode im Kongress absolvieren. Diese war von den Ereignissen im Vorfeld des Bürgerkrieges bestimmt.

Nach seinem Ausscheiden aus dem US-Repräsentantenhaus praktizierte Thomas Rivers wieder als Anwalt. Er starb am 18. März 1863 auf seiner Plantage im Fayette County.

LianBio to Break Ice on Chinese IPO Freeze With $345 Million Float
The U.S.-China clinical-stage biopharma startup has priced its offering scheduled for next Thursday.
CapitalWatch Staff
Oct. 20, 2021 20:36
(CapitalWatch, Oct. 20, New York) LianBio, a clinical-stage biopharma operating in China and the United States, is set to lift off in a New York IPO worth up to $345.1 million next week.
The company is offering 20.3 million American depositary shares in the price range of $15 to $17 apiece. Each ADS represents one ordinary share. At the top of the range, LianBio's valuation would stand at $1.8 billion.
LianBio has hired Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Jefferies LLC, BofA Securities Inc., and Raymond James & Associates Inc. to secure its listing.
Headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey, LianBio conducts the majority of its operations in China. With nine product candidates in its pipeline and three near Phase 3 trial stage, the company focuses on in-licensing assets to Greater China and other Asian markets. Among its partners are Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE: BMY), Tarsus Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: TARS), and Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE).
Early investors in LianBio included funds managed by Pfizer, BlackRock (NYSE: BLK), Farallon Capital, and Perceptive Advisors.
Scheduled for next Thursday, Oct. 28, on the Nasdaq Global Market, LianBio's IPO will mark a comeback of Chinese listings to New York after a four-month halt.
It was early July, shortly after the $4.4 billion fiasco IPO of Didi Global Inc. (NYSE: DIDI), when Beijing said it is reviewing rules for overseas fundraisings. As Beijing prepared new laws, several expected and scheduled Chinese IPOs in New York were canceled or postponed. Specifically, Beijing was looking at rules concerning VIE structure and has tightened its data security laws.
In connection to data security, LianBio stated in its prospectus that patient data obtained during clinical trials in China is anonymized. While uncertainties remain on certain definitions, the company wrote, "To our understanding, the Chinese government has not required life sciences companies to upload clinical study data to any government-designated data centers, or prevented the cross-border transmission and sharing of clinical study data."
Since the new rules were released, just a handful of companies linked to China have publicly filed for a U.S. listing and LianBio was the first to get through to Wall Street.
Other filings came from a Chinese wheelchair company, Jin Medical International Ltd., a small Hong Kong-based online brokerage, Zhong Yang Financial Group Ltd., and FWD Group Holdings Ltd., a Pan-Asian life insurer controlled by Hong Kong tycoon Richard Li.
LianBio's flotation will also indicate the level of U.S. investors' willingness to continue backing Chinese stocks after so many of even the "too-big-to-fail" companies lost billions in market value this year amid the regulatory crackdown.
LianBio has reserved the ticker symbol "LIAN" for public trading.

This post is a little bit a reminder that 1. it's baby season and 2. you absolutely CAN find puppies at shelters (meaning you don't have to buy). But mostly I just wanted to share with you the rather unfortunate cuteness that took over work last week. I say unfortunate because I hate that there are so many puppies coming through our doors with no home! But regardless, here are some squishy faces for your Monday.
I'm actually going to be seeing lots of puppies from now on thanks to an exciting new opportunity (no, that does not include fostering… for now) – but more on that later!
This entry was posted in Dog talk, Rescue/Humane Society and tagged adorable puppies, black and white puppies, ears, pit bull puppies, puppies, puppies for adoption, shelter dog, spring babies. Bookmark the permalink.
Eek – SO CUTE! I don't think I could actually do a puppy..but I'd love to have a friend with one so I could borrow it!
CUTE OVERLOAD! Lol. They are just adorable. Unfortunately I think a puppy would be too much work and they are snapped up from rescues quickly anyway so if I got a dog I think I'd want an elderly one I could give a retirement home to. Or even just one that has grown out of the crazy puppy phase!
Looks like you had fun though!
So much cuteness- especially the one of the puppy sleeping in your arms!
Oh it looks like a baby Ray! I love snuggling with puppies at the shelter, but am glad we're past that "baby" stage at home.
We got Miss Walker as a puppy (8 weeks old) and I have to say that as cute as they are, it is ALOT of work. She is a fabulous dog and my husband and I didn't really know much about training but we did take advice we heard from several people to crate train her and it was the best thing we did for her and for us! Not sure I would take on another puppy, especially seeing so many seniors dumped at the shelter and there is something to be said for a mature dog. Happy Monday!!!!!
Makes me have puppy fever!!! But then I quickly remember the puppy "phase" and I'm not ready to do that all over again. I'm so glad we are past the puppy phase at home.
I regularly visit four different shelters and it's rare that puppies aren't available, any time of the year. This is good and bad: of course they are adopted quickly, but that also means an adult or senior dog is passed by and left in the shelter.
Puppies are definitely a lot of work; Cricket was 8 weeks old when she joined us and to me it was almost like having another human baby again! If I was to do it again (and I did, two more times!) I would get an 'older' puppy, in the 4-8 month old range. Still young, still puppy-cute, but generally over a lot of the difficult younger puppy behavior.
It also very much helps to add a puppy to a home with an established dog. Excellent for daily socialization and the puppy can learn so much from the older dog!
Puppies, I love it! And, I agree you can find puppies at a humane society, that's how we adopted Dottie at 8 weeks old.


ROYAL OAK - Two online marketing entrepreneurs are dialing up a hot idea to recycle old cell phones and other wireless items and raise money for charities in the process.
Dwight Zahringer, president of Trademark Productions in downtown Royal Oak, has established a new non-profit company called Recycling for Charities.
"I decided to do this last fall because there are so many people willing to donate old cell phones they no longer use," said Zahringer. "It makes us feel good, too. You feel a lot of good karma coming your way when you do things like this."
Dwight knows first-hand how often people now purchase new cell phones, Palm Pilots, PDAs, digital cameras, and pagers. "I had six old cell phones myself that were just sitting in my basement," he said.
Experts estimate there about 200 million active cell phones nationwide and about 500 million cell and mobile phones that are no longer in use.
The company launched its Web site, www.recyclingforcharities.com, on Wednesday and Zahringer said donations of 200 wireless phones and other items were received within 24 hours.
Recycling such items, which contain toxic elements and heavy metals, keeps them from ending up in landfills, he said.
Recycling for Charities typically brokers the used wireless items to Wireless Resource, a West Bloomfield company that refurbishes the used technology for resale in secondary markets, Zahringer said. "We split the money we get 50/50 with the charities designated by the donors," he said.
Dwight has invested about $25,000 in startup costs for the venture, which is a (501)c3 non-profit, the only recycler of this type in the nation that is a full non-profit.
Donors can go to the company Web site to select a charity and get a print-out of a receipt for tax-deduction purposes and a shipping label. The company is already lined up with about 50 different charitable organizations ranging from Ronald McDonald House Charities and American Red Cross to the Midwest AIDS Prevention Project in Ferndale, Michigan.
"As we continue to see a decrease in HIV prevention dollars from state and federal governments," said Michael Odom of MAPP, "it is imperative that we seek alternate routes of funding such as worthwhile organizations such as Recycling for Charities."
Non-profit groups and individuals can collect outmoded wireless items and send them to RFC.
Zahringer said RFC can also set up fund-raising programs with a school, church or scout troop. Marketing materials are available on the company's Web site, he added. "Instead of going out and selling candy, kids and their parents can get involved in recycling," Zahringer said.
RFC has also started a program to distribute drop-off containers for wireless items to be recycled. They already have 39 such containers at 10 St. Vincent de Paul locations in southeast Michigan.
"We'd eventually like to be in Wireless Giant stores and run fund-raisers for large charities," Zahringer said. "I believe we're the only non-profit out there doing this now."

ToTok is an unsecured United Arab Emirates intel source ….
December 22, 2019 By jamesb
That IS what American intelligence community believes …
The NY Times goes along with that assessment ….
It is billed as an easy and secure way to chat by video or text message with friends and family, even in a country that has restricted popular messaging services like WhatsApp and Skype.
But the service, ToTok, is actually a spying tool, according to American officials familiar with a classified intelligence assessment and a New York Times investigation into the app and its developers. It is used by the government of the United Arab Emirates to try to track every conversation, movement, relationship, appointment, sound and image of those who install it on their phones.
ToTok, introduced only months ago, was downloaded millions of times from the Apple and Google app stores by users throughout the Middle East, Europe, Asia, Africa and North America. While the majority of its users are in the Emirates, ToTok surged to become one of the most downloaded social apps in the United States last week, according to app rankings and App Annie, a research firm.
ToTok amounts to the latest escalation in a digital arms race among wealthy authoritarian governments, interviews with current and former American foreign officials and a forensic investigation showed. The governments are pursuing more effective and convenient methods to spy on foreign adversaries, criminal and terrorist networks, journalists and critics — efforts that have ensnared people all over the world in their surveillance nets.
Persian Gulf nations like Saudi Arabia, the Emirates and Qatar previously turned to private firms — including Israeli and American contractors — to hack rivals and, increasingly, their own citizens. The development of ToTok, experts said, showed that the governments can cut out the intermediary to spy directly on their targets, who voluntarily, if unwittingly, hand over their information.
A technical analysis and interviews with computer security experts showed that the firm behind ToTok, Breej Holding, is most likely a front company affiliated with DarkMatter, an Abu Dhabi-based cyberintelligence and hacking firm where Emirati intelligence officials, former National Security Agency employees and former Israeli military intelligence operatives work. DarkMatter is under F.B.I. investigation, according to former employees and law enforcement officials, for possible cybercrimes. The American intelligence assessment and the technical analysis also linked ToTok to Pax AI, an Abu Dhabi-based data mining firm that appears to be tied to DarkMatter…
On Thursday, Google removed the app from its Play store after determining ToTok violated unspecified policies. Apple removed ToTok from its App Store on Friday and was still researching the app, a spokesman said….

'Gig Economy': the end of work as we knew it
General discontent
What can be done then?
Employment - one of the most intangible problems economic science had to face, finally found a solution. The "Gig Economy" was discovered in Silicon Valley. In the Californian mecca of start-ups, they learned the internet and smartphones` omnipresence allowed almost all automatic job assignments to the most available service providers (Uber) or dividing complex jobs into small tasks to be carried out by an army of online working employees (Mechanical Turk).
Since the workers only get paid for the productive hours, companies did not even had to think it through before hiring a new member to their platform. Additionally, it could also be a breakthrough for the employees. At least that is how the technology sold it: why always enter at the same time? Isn't it better to decide when and how much you work? In 2011, Sarah Kessler was one of the American journalists who accepted the Silicon Valley`s story without any question. Until that year she decided to take a month at Mashable, the news portal where she was working, and enrolled in all the gig companies she found. "I signed up in thirty or forty applications with the aim of exceeding the minimum wage," - she explains during a Skype interview from Chicago - "That's when I understood that it was more complex than pressing a button and getting a job."
A salary below the minimum wage, no vacation and impossible to be sick. Today those are the main reasons this new algorithm connected economy to be questioned, but back then it was never mentioned. A deliverer status that was granted to the workers was also never discussed ( to avoid work legislation ) and neither the lie about the flexibility. All the drivers and deliverers of the GIG economy are well aware that not being available when it is needed is punished later by getting fewer assignments from the company.
In 2018, Kessler published a book on this subject ( Gigged: The End of the Job & the Future of Work ) that according to Financial Times was one of the best works of the year on Economics issues. The book tells the story of half a dozen people who subsist thanks to these newly created jobs of the digital age in order to "see the potential of this form of employment." In accordance with the study on the GIG economy, it ranges from the traditional transport services to office cleaning, through telemarketing or traffic lights identification in photos ( a typical task of Mechanical Turk, Amazon ).
None of the workers interviewed by Kessler feels comfortable with their situation. The only enthusiast is Curtis, a programmer who before switching to the GIG economy used to earn a six-figure annual salary. According to Kessler, his satisfaction has to do with getting to know only the good aspects ( "choosing when to work and the programming projects that interest him" ) and none of the bad ones ( "the feeling of instability" ). However, she explains this case is an exception due to his university education in a field of high demand and with high fees to "build his own safety net."
The reason why the rest of the surveyed people are working on the new platforms is not the alleged flexibility but the lack of traditional jobs. The problem pointed out by Kessler is these traditional jobs are in stagnation. "We have been moving away from traditional full-time employment since the seventies. Uber represents the most extreme example as it does not even recognize the employer relationship, but this situation exists since the temporary employment agencies appeared."
The absence of an employment relationship is not the only innovation coming from Silicon Valley. With the exception of highly demanded professions such as programmers, the workforce available to start-ups is practically endless due to their practice of demanding little qualifications from employees ( a driver's license in case of Uber company ) or because they recruitment process is practically carried out all over the world (like Mechanical Turk). Under these conditions, establishing a trade union organization is very difficult because "in every part of the world people have different priorities."
In 2015, a former Secretary of Employment Seth Harris and Princeton economist Alan Krueger published an academic paper with the possibility of a third category, the "independent worker", to allow companies to grant benefits ( such as health insurance ) without a risk of being used against them by proving an existence of a work relationship. According to the author the risk of that idea is to increase general precariousness, instead of improving the situation of the Gig: so we all become independent workers. The other solution, recognizing the role of employees with all their rights, is what seems to bother you the least. The argument that new business would not work if the labor relations had to be respected, made her laugh. "That has been said every time the employees had to be paid better." Kessler complaint.
The benefits of Uber, according to the expert, do not return to the local economy, as those of regular taxi drivers. The drivers of this application for passenger transport do not earn much, but it is also true that the company has been a blessing for the unemployed. In Kessler's opinion, gig potential can be harnessed without suffering its damages through the old cooperative formula. Technology makes it possible to vote for cooperative decisions quicker as she wrote in her book, and the development of software for ordering and assigning jobs is shared among several cooperatives. "It's hard to compete with the publicity of a giant like Uber but you don't have to dethrone it either," she says. Giving a good chance of work to the owners of the cooperative is more than enough
