Brent and Lauren met in 2013 during their senior years of college at UGA and Auburn University, respectively. Brent had already been gigging as the front-man for his band, the Brent Gafford Band based in Athens. The two instantly hit it off and thus a romantic and a musical bond pursued. Lauren soon became a full-time member of the band, adding a new layer of harmony as the band settled into the Atlanta music scene. Fast-forward six years and 400+ live shows later, The band has landed opening slots for several of Nashville's most notable up-and-comers Mitchell Tenpenny, Josh Thompson, Jon Langston, Trea Landon, Muscadine Bloodline, and Tyler Reeve.
Brent and Lauren have slowly worked towards transitioning into a duo over the last two years in Nashville. The two wed in April of 2018, so the transition to a duo has been a natural progression. With so much experience performing together, they have naturally meshed their harmonies to create their own brand of original country music – a sound that is undeniably commercial, yet doesn't undermine the organic twang of the 90's music that has served as an early influence. Brent and Lauren are now ready to make their mark as a duo, Charlotte Pike – a name that commemorates the place both literally (residing off Charlotte Pike in West Nashville) and figuratively - representing where they are now in their pursuit of good songs in Nashville, Tennessee.
Charlotte Pike is set to release their debut single, "Hurt Like This" on August 9th – with three additional singles to be released throughout the fall of 2019. The new duo has a slew of dates booked to help promote the release. They will be on the road with fellow Georgia-born acts Cody Parks & The Dirty South and Dawson Edwards as they hit Smith's Olde Bar in Atlanta on Thursday, August 8th followed by the 40 Watt in Athens, Ga on the 9th to celebrate the debut single release of "Hurt Like This". Other dates on the calendar include opening slots for Deana Carter August 24th in Bozeman, MT and Corey Smith on September 14th in McDonough, Georgia. Follow Charlotte Pike on their brand new social's @Charlotte Pike Music to keep up with new announcements, press, and live performances.

Loyal customers are what any business owners dream of day and night. Loyal customers are the synonym for stability which in its turn is the fundamental precondition of a successful enterprise.
There is no need to say that increasing your customers' loyalty is essential to the development of your e-commerce website.
There is no need to say that you should always meet your customers' needs: the products should be delivered in time, services should be completed according to the schedule or earlier, but be sure to add bonuses and new features that are going to surprise your customers once they receive it. A thank-you gift, a special offer or access to an exclusive event will cost little for you, but it will be a great investment into building long-term relations with your clients.
Many customers complain about customer support service. Possible complains vary from 'Their recommendations were useless' to 'They didn't answer my e-mail!' Remember, if a customer contacts your support service, he MUST receive a clear, easy-to-understand and accurate reply to his e-mail as soon as possible. You have no right to make him feel guilty for what he has done wrong and leave him all alone with his problem. Be sure to really help your customer and solve his problems, no matter how serious they are. If you are a site owner, instruct your employees to help clients the way they would want to be helped. This will be the best guideline to dealing with customers' problems.
You are not perfect but strive to!
If there is something you did wrong, have courage to admit it. Show genuine readiness to improve even if you are already doing great job in servicing your customers. Choose an online survey tool that is easy-to-use, to analyze customers' response to what you do and offer. People always appreciate that sort of cooperation.
Sending an automated "Thank-You" or "Happy Birthday" letter is not enough to build broader relationship with your clients. Consider sending a relevant article to create positive association. In this way you will be able to educate your customers too. Determine what your clients are interested in and then establish a timetable for regular interactions to cover issues that should be explained to them.

Award winning documentary director visits CBS Charleville
On Monday 1st April Nicholas Ryan Purcell visited CBS Charleville to present his documentary 'This is Nicholas – Living with Autism Spectrum Disorder'. The documentary was showcased to an assembly of fifth year students and was followed by a question and answer session where Nicholas shared further insights and experiences as a person living wth ASD. As a school, we recognise the importance of understanding the different ways students learn and how this must be supported throughout school life to ensure students reach their full potential. Nicholas himself is a past pupil of two Edmund Rice Schools – Abbey CBS, Tipperary town and Nenagh CBS. His honesty and insight into his experiences, challenges and supports as a young boy growing up provided an amazing learning opportunity for our students. His success in his area of film-making is a testament to his perseverance and commitment to his studies. As a past pupil of an Edmund Rice school, Nicholas talked about his time in secondary school and the importance of key figures throughout this time. The inclusive spirit of the Edmund Rice school supported him on his journey. There are further links with CBS Charleville as Nicholas's father Oliver is a past pupil of CBS Charleville, being one of the first groups to move into the Bakers Road building in 1970.
Nicholas remained in Charleville for the evening and the documentary was hosted in the Charleville Park Hotel by CBS Charleville as a community event where parents, teachers, support staff working with students on the ASD spectrum were able to view the documentary and meet Nicholas. This event was of huge interest locally and the large attendance on the night was indicative of the thirst for knowledge in this area for the local community. The documentary is thought-provoking and inspiring and provides all those who live with Autism an honest and real window into this world. Nicholas gave of his time after the screening to answer questions from all in the audience. His confidence, humour and honesty resulted in a relaxed, informative atmosphere that had some with tears in their eyes and others leaving with new information and understandings.
Thank you to all who attended on the evening. CBS Charleville are delighted to have brought this event to our locality.

Brother Act
By Nora Sayre and John Brooks
Talk. Visit with the 3 Clancy brothers of Carrick-on-Suir, Ireland, who have made a hit in Neil McKenzie's adaptation of Frank O'Connor's story "Guests of the Nation". All 3 boys left school in their teens. They had been sent first to a convent & then to a monastery. Patrick, 36, has been an insurance salesman, cabdriver, draftsman, designer of perfume ads, diamond hunter & presently owns a company that records verse & folk songs. Tom, 32, & a former boxer, is the most devoted actor of the 3. He has appeared in numerous productions - the most recent being "Ulysses in Night-town" where he played 8 roles. Liam, 22, is making his local debut in "Guest of the Nation". He directed a film called "Wicked John & the Devil". They are all in the same show because Tom was asked to help cast it & decided that 3 parts were just made for the 3 brothers. Their father was an insurance broker with a taste for grand opera & other relatives are active in local operatic & dramatic troupes. As children they put on family shows in the cowshed.
Andrews Sisters
As the years passed, Tom grew more entrenched in his homelessness. He was absorbed in lofty fantasies and private missions, aware of the basest necessities and the most transcendent abstractions, and almost nothing in between.

Q: Center number of pages Discord Bot I'm currently having a problem to center the number of pages between the navigation buttons
he ends up being like this

But whenever I change pages, It goes to the direction I click the navigation button

I use the pycord lib for the navigation buttons, the code looks like this:
    @commands.slash_command()
    async def help(self, ctx):
      """
      Mostrar a página de ajuda.
      """
      paginator = pages.Paginator(
          pages=self.pages, show_disabled=False)
      await paginator.respond(ctx.interaction, ephemeral=False)
      await Session.delete_message(self, ctx, 60)

I can't imagine how to use it without creating the navigation buttons myself, so the question is, is it possible to do this using the pycord lib?

A: I arrived at the solution, instantiating the buttons directly in the function
@commands.slash_command()
async def help(self, ctx: discord.ApplicationContext):
    """
    Mostrar a página de ajuda.
    """
    paginator = pages.Paginator(
        pages=self.pages,
        use_default_buttons=False,
        loop_pages=False,
        show_disabled=False,
    )
    paginator.add_button(
        pages.PaginatorButton(
            "prev", label="<", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green, loop_label="lst"
        )
    )
    paginator.add_button(
        pages.PaginatorButton(
            "page_indicator", style=discord.ButtonStyle.gray, disabled=True
        )
    )
    paginator.add_button(
        pages.PaginatorButton(
            "next", style=discord.ButtonStyle.green, loop_label="fst"
            )
        )
        await paginator.respond(ctx.interaction, ephemeral=False)

Baby Boomers and Elderly Seek Drug and Alcohol Treatment
Elderly couple in support group
Participants in a support group for older adults at the Hanley Center, an addiction treatment and rehab center in West Palm Beach, Fla. say a prayer. A remarkable shift in the number of older adults reporting substance abuse problems is making this scene more common. Between 1992 and 2008, treatment admissions for those 50 and older more than doubled in the U.S. That number will continue to grow, experts say, as the massive baby boom generation ages.

An increasing number of Baby Boomers and elderly Americans are seeking treatment for substance abuse–and this number is growing rapidly. According to The Associated Press, The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration reports that treatment admissions doubled in adults age 50 and over between 1992 and 2008.
It is widely predicted by experts that this wave will continue–as baby boomers who developed drug addiction problems 30 to 40 years ago continue to age. Older adults are more likely to abuse alcohol than illicit drugs, the article states. According to the AP, treatment professionals state that there are many older adults with substance abuse issues who are not seeking treatment.
Currently, there are few treatment programs specifically designed for older adults (with more and more coming on the scene each month). The article notes that seniors in mixed age groups may have a hard time relating to younger participants and may end up mentoring younger participants instead of focusing on their own issues.
Big spike recorded in older drug, alcohol addicts
MATT SEDENSKY, Associated Press
Updated 02:39 a.m., Wednesday, May 18, 2011
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — They go around this room at the Hanley Center telling of their struggles with alcohol and drugs. They tell of low points and lapses, brushes with death and pain caused to families. And silently, through the simple fact that each is in their 60s or beyond, they share one more secret: Addiction knows no age.
"I retired, I started drinking more," one man said. "I lost my father, my mother, my dog, and it gave me a good excuse," said another.
A remarkable shift in the number of older adults reporting substance abuse problems is making this scene more common. Between 1992 and 2008, treatment admissions for those 50 and older more than doubled in the U.S. That number will continue to grow, experts say, as the massive baby boom generation ages.
"There is a level of societal denial around the issue," said Peter Provet, the head of Odyssey House in New York, another center offering specialized substance abuse treatment programs for seniors. "No one wants to look at their grandparent, no one wants to think about their grandparent or their elderly parent, and see that person as an addict."
All told, 231,200 people aged 50 and over sought treatment for substance abuse in 2008, up from 102,700 in 1992, according to the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Older adults accounted for about one of every eight seeking help for substance abuse in 2008, meaning their share of treatment admissions has doubled over the 16-year period as other age groups' proportions shrunk slightly.
The growth outpaces overall population gains among older demographics. Between 2000 and 2008, substance abuse treatment admissions among those 50 and older increased by 70 percent while the overall 50-plus population grew by 21 percent. Experts say that's because boomers have historically high rates of substance abuse, often developed three or four decades ago, that comes to a head later in life.
"The baby boom population has some experience with substance misuse and is more comfortable with these substances," said Dr. Westley Clark, director of SAMHSA's center on substance abuse treatment.
Treatment professionals believe the actual number of older people with substance abuse problems is many times larger than the amount seeking help.
While the number of older people with substance abuse problems is booming, relatively few facilities offer treatment programs specifically for their age group. Most pool people of all ages together; many divide by gender. Those that do offer age-specific programs say it helps participants relate to one another and keeps them focused on themselves, rather than mentoring younger addicts.
Provet said some have questioned whether it's worthwhile to target efforts at seniors, who generally have fewer years left to benefit from treatment than younger people. He dismisses that reasoning, comparing it to arguing that a cancer patient should be turned away from chemotherapy or radiation treatments simply because they're 65.
Besides, older participants at Odyssey House have the highest completion rate — 85 percent during the last fiscal year.
"It's almost as if they say, 'This now is my last shot. Let me see if I can get my life right finally,'" he said.
Among those taking that approach is Henry Dennis, who at 70 has used heroin for the past 50 years. He came to Odyssey before, relapsed and was arrested for drug possession. Dennis says he's seen at least a dozen friends die of drug use, but it wasn't enough to make him stop.
Now in his eighth month of treatment, he says he finally has the resolve to quit.
"I'm going to get it right this time," said Dennis, who has worked a variety of odd jobs. "I don't want to die, not just yet."
Dennis' treatment is paid for by the state of New York. Many pay out of pocket. Medicare offers some coverage for outpatient treatment but generally doesn't cover inpatient programs.
Experts have observed a rise in illicit drug use, while treatment for alcohol has dropped even though it remains the chief addiction among older adults. The 2008 statistics show 59.9 percent of those 50 and older seeking treatment cited alcohol as their primary substance, down from 84.6 percent in 1992. Heroin came in second, accounting for 16 percent of admissions in that age group, more than double its share in the earlier survey. Cocaine was third, at 11.4 percent, more than four times its 1992 rate.
Surveys show the vast majority of older drug addicts and alcoholics reported first using their substance of choice many years earlier, like Dennis. That lifelong use can lead to liver damage, memory loss, hepatitis and a host of other medical issues. A minority of people find comfort in drugs and alcohol far later, fueled by drastic life changes, loneliness or legitimate physical pain.
Don Walsh, a participant at Hanley's support group, falls into the latter category. He is among 19 men and women who gather on this day in the room with pale blue walls and the calming whir of a fish tank. One comes in a wheelchair, another with a walker; one dozes off during the session.
Walsh, a 77-year-old lawyer, says he didn't develop a problem with alcohol until he retired a year ago. His relentless schedule of 12- to 14-hour days disappeared into a series of leisurely lunches and dinners where the wine flowed freely. One day, he blacked out in his garage. Had it happened while he was driving home, he thought, he might have killed himself and others.
After six weeks of treatment, Walsh says he no longer craves alcohol.
"I have a new lease on life," he said.

Gordy parked in fashion … Worcester city councilors Gaffney and Lukes and a few dollars more
Worcester City Councilor Mike Gaffney and Turtle Boy blogger Aidan Kearney engage in the same kind of race baiting as the divisive Donald Trump. pic:R.T.
By Gordon Davis
When thinking about Worcester City Councilor/Reverend Sarai Rivera's Austin Street church building controversy and the Worcester City Council, Malcolm X, Southern Black churches and the White Citizens Councils come to mind.
The Worcester City Council has given its support for the partial removal of federal block grant money from the fund to demolish six condemned properties in Worcester. One of the six condemned properties is a building owned by Rivera's church. The controversy arises because Reverend Rivera is also a Worcester City Councilor.
Rivera is co-minister of the Christian Community Church which is open to all races and serves a mostly Hispanic congregation. Rivera has been an outspoken critic of the Worcester Police in the past. Rivera has also shown support for the Black Lives Matter civil rights movement. To be fair, she has also expressed support for the Worcester Police, especially in its efforts to remove trail bikes from the streets.
Worcester City Manager Ed Augustus has defended his decision to include the property owned by Rivera's church in the federal block grant for demolition of condemned properties. The property met the same criteria as the other properties on the manager's list.
The appropriateness of the money going to the church was raised by Turtle Boy blogger Aidan Kearney, who is known for his racism. Michael (Mike) Gaffney, a white Worcester city councilor who has been characterized as a racist, brought the issue before the Worcester City Council.
It is not the first time Gaffney has attacked Reverend Rivera. He has attacked another woman of color when he sought to close the Mosaic Complex.
Malcom X said black coffee loses its essence if too much milk is added. For a long time some people in government and elsewhere said they were "revolutionaries" – or at least progressives. These people, I suppose, were well meaning, but they misled the struggle for racial and economic justice.
The southern Black churches during the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s supported their ministers independently of white folks, the white community. It was known that taking the "man's" money brought ambiguity to whomever the ministers were ministering.
Closer to home, here in Worcester, in 2016: A predominantly Black church's minister was on the board of directors of the Mosaic Complex. The minister abruptly quit Mosaic's board when Gaffney and Turtle Boy plunged it into controversy. It is known that this minister also serves on at least one City of Worcester Committee – with some funding involved for his projects. A reasonable person could conclude that instead of ministering to his flock, there is ambiguity in this minister's responsibilities.
"Divide and Conquer" by racists like Kearney and Gaffney also existed in the old Civil Rights movement. It seems to be extant in the new Civil Rights Movement. We have learned from the old Civil Rights movement that the strongest organizations have been multi-racial organizations. Unfortunately, many progressives still have difficulty grasping this; even the right wingers have their "tokens."
Wikepedia gives the following definition: "The Citizens' Councils (also referred to as White Citizens' Councils) were an associated network of white supremacist organizations in the United States, concentrated in the South. The first was formed on July 11, 1954. After 1956, it was known as the Citizens' Councils of America."
Although the Worcester City Council is not anything like the so called Citizen Councils, our city council comes to mind on this issue. The Worcester City Council, to some extent, is a representation of the old Worcester. The old Worcester was mostly White and seemingly comfortable for many White people. It was not so comfortable for many Black and Latino people back then.
This nostalgia by some Worcesterites for Worcester's exclusionary (based on a person's color or ethnicity) past has allowed Worcester city councillors like Michael Gaffney, Gary Rosen and Konnie Lukes to remain in office. Councilor Lukes has recently sought a report of arrest records of recent immigrants to Worcester. This is a form of terrorism, as it has caused much anxiety and emotional distress for many law-abiding residents of our city. Lukes could have instead sought a list of hate crimes and harassment of the newcomers to the city in an effort to mitigate the racist Trump effect. She didn't.
Councilor Riverai's church's board of directors should say it did not ask for, nor does it, at this time, want any federal block grant money for the demolition of its condemned property.
The church should remain separate from government – especially when in the struggle for justice.
I suppose each generation will have to learn anew the lessons from the old Civil Rights movement. People with one foot in each camp will eventually mislead us and the man's few dollars will be the downfall of some and the heartbreak of others.

About Eli Young Band
With roots firmly planted in the fertile musical soil of Texas, the Eli Young Band is a little bit country and a helluva lot of guitar-driven rock & roll. Their Carnival Recording Company debut, Level, finds them poised to bust out of the Lone Star State and bring their brand of music to a wider audience, as they make inroads into neighboring states like Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi.
The band was formed almost five years ago by Mike Eli who grew up just outside of Houston and James Young who hails from Irving, TX. After playing together as a duo they were later joined by drummer Chris Thompson of Colleyville, TX and bassist Jon Jones of Omaha, NE, who all met while students at the University of North Texas at Denton, about 50 miles north of Dallas/Forth Worth. After graduating the group decided to stay in Denton and to this day make their home in the town.
Late in 2003 producer Frank Liddell (Jack Ingram, Miranda Lambert, Chris Knight) attended a show at the Gypsy Tea Room where EYB was playing on the bill with Miranda Lambert. He was blown away by their live show and wound up signing them to Carnival Recording Company soon after. This April, Eli Young Band will release Level, marking their debut on Carnival.
Level has drawn comparisons to The Jayhawks in the plaintive "When It Rains". The band members, all in their early 20s, have proven to be adept at blending their musical influences into a cohesive sound on this effort. You can hear the heartland rock of John Mellencamp in the autobiographical "Small Town Kid" and the crying-in-your-beer band on the road saga "Highways and Broken Hearts." There's the grinding blues of the Black Crowes in "Bring It on Home," and the romantic lament of "That's the Way" and "Everything Is You."
"I wouldn't exactly label us as country or rock. While we've been influenced by artists in each of those genres, we lean more towards Alt Country, our music fits in best with artists you hear on AAA radio." adds Young. "Our sound is a blend of all of our influences. For example, I was raised on blues and rock, guitarists like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Joe Perry, Jimmy Page… all the greats. Mike grew up on singer/songwriters like Rodney Crowell and Paul Simon."
"Jon's major influences on bass were Jaco Pastorius and Stefan Lessard and Chris studied drummers like John Blackwell, Matt Chamberlain and Steve Gadd," said Eli. "Whether we're playing 'When It Rains' or a track with a blues edge like 'Bring It On Home' the blend of my vocals, James on guitar with Chris and Jon laying down the rhythm makes each song sound distinctly like EYB," adds Eli. You can hear a bit of James's early influences on Level's title track, a blues-rocker that lends itself to the sound of Lenny Kravitz, ending with a rave up guitar riff that sounds like a tribute to one of Young's guitar heroes, Jimmy Page. You can also hear that he was inspired by Stevie Ray Vaughan when listening to the solo in "So Close Now."
"We really wanted to stretch and push ourselves," says Eli about the band's approach to recording the album, co-produced by Texas native Erik Herbst in his Denton studio as well as JJ Lester.
Indeed, Level is a search for higher ground after years of playing before larger and larger audiences, both on their own and opening for bigger acts. In five short years the Eli Young Band has gone from small club dates to playing in front of 6,000 people at a time opening for the likes of Jack Ingram, Pat Green and Cross Canadian Ragweed.
Songs like "Small Town Kid" and "So Close Now" capture the frustrations of being trapped in a small town and wanting to get out ("I've got the streets memorized/I see the faces in my mind… I have nothing in common with the town I've come to know").
"Oklahoma Girl," "Bring It on Home" and "Girl in Red" deal with the titillation of love at first sight. "When It Rains," "That's the Way" and "Everything in You" capture the downside of relationships, the loneliness after they end, while "I Call The Tune" is a lighthearted track written in a tongue and cheek manner that has become a crowd favorite.
"Whether I'm having a bad day or going through a difficult time, writing has become a way for me to deal with my frustrations and work through my emotions," says Eli. "Music is a great outlet; most of the songs on Level are a reflection of the bands personal experiences over the last few years."
In the end, the Eli Young Band is about going out on the road and playing their music for their fans. You can hear that in the lonesome twang of "Highways and Broken Hearts" and the undaunted optimism of "Bottom Line."
"There are a lot of ups and downs being on the road in a working band," says James, adding with a laugh. "But I can't think of anything I would rather do."
"We love getting out there and exposing new people to our music. That's why we play four and five shows a week. We're in this for the long haul, building up our fan base one audience at a time…and that's our bottom line."

IF politics makes strange bedfellows, so too do the front pages of newspapers. The juxtaposition of pictures of two sets of queues - of voters in the South African elections, and of citizen-mourners paying last respects to President Nixon - has provided food for thought in the days since.
These two events, one a beginning and the other a closing out, both have to do in different ways with reconciliation, and they both remind us how politics tries to answer the question, Whose country is this, anyway?
In South Africa, a sense of the immensity of the work that lies ahead is already settling in: The elections are only the beginning, but they constitute one of those glorious moments in human history; we get only a few news events like this in a lifetime.
Particularly touching were the reports of that first day of balloting, when the elderly and disabled, along with pregnant women, were allowed to vote before the waves of humanity of the public at large began pouring forth.
And indeed it did. A negotiated revolution is under way, growing out of the best instincts of both blacks and whites, including a willingness to let go of past grievances in order to work toward a better future.
Contrasted with the joyful tidings from South Africa, the reports of Nixon's funeral were a sort of countermelody in a minor key. The response to the demise of the 37th president of the United States was not without some hypocrisy and harping, but he was mourned by many who might not have expected to mourn him.
President Clinton's gracious eulogy was a sort of intergenerational peacemaking and a closing of the book on the polarization and strife of the 1960s.
Surely Clinton (a k a ``the Comeback Kid'') also recognized in Nixon his own resilience: 10 years after being narrowly (some would say fraudulently) beaten in his first presidential bid - by that hero of the teenage Bill Clinton, John Kennedy - Richard Nixon was himself in the White House.
Michael Barone, in his 1990 book ``Our Country: The Shaping of America From Roosevelt to Reagan,'' made the argument that ``the single most fundamental issue of American politics in this century is that of who really is an American.'' That included, of course, the question of full participation of blacks in the American political process, an issue that connects American politics with those of South Africa and explains why so many Americans have felt so deeply about South Africa. But to an extent that is unappreciated today, ``Who is really American?'' also included the ethnic and sectarian question: Could a Roman Catholic be elected president of the United States?
But by the time Nixon made it to the White House, the sectarian hurdle had been cleared, and politics was becoming defined more by ideology and less by ethnicity and culture.
Nelson Mandela, imprisoned for 27 years, is another political leader who knows a thing or two about resilience - fortunately for South Africa. There the question, Whose country is this, anyway? is of even more profound import. Through Mandela's remarkable leadership, along with that of his negotiating partner, Frederik de Klerk, their peoples began to see politics as something more than a zero-sum game, and to imagine South Africa as a place that is everybody's country.

An MVV (Machtiging Voorlopig Verblijf) stands for "Temporary Residence Permit" and is compulsory for all foreigners who want to stay longer than 90 days per six months in the Netherlands.
For example: this may apply to parents who want to stay for six months in a row with their children in the Netherlands, or students who enroll in a study of four months, or business men who have travel to the Netherlands so often that the total of their combined visits per six months exceeds 90 days, etc.
For permanent stay in the Netherlands, the MVV will be changed by IND (Immigration and Naturalisation authority) into a Regular Residence Permit called "VVR" (VerblijfsVergunning Regulier) after you arrive in the Netherlands.
1) The host asks for an advice from IND in the Netherlands and pays the MVV fee (unless the applicant pays the fee himself), before the applicant applies for MVV at a a Dutch Embassy/Consulate.
2) Only if IND issues a positive advice, the applicant starts the actual MVV procedure at a Dutch Embassy/Consulate.
3) If the application is complete and there are no other problems, the MVV is issued.
1) The applicant applies for an authorisation for temporary stay ('MVV') at a Dutch embassy or consulate. The application is sent for decision to IND.
2) IND asks the host of the applicant for the required information and payment of the fee (unless the applicant has opted to pay the fee himself). When the application is complete and the fee has been paid, IND takes a decision that is sent to the mission electronically.
3) The mission informs the applicant about the decision and issues the MVV (or a refusal letter if the decision is negative).
b. The IND checks whether the host meets the relevant conditions.
c. The IND informs the host of its recommendation. If the recommendation is positive, the host must pay the applicable fee in the Netherlands.
d. Once the fee has been paid, the IND informs the mission of the positive recommendation.
e. If the host does not meet the conditions, the IND will send the host a negative recommendation. The IND will not inform the mission of the negative recommendation, nor will it inform the applicant. Following a ruling by the Administrative Jurisdiction Division of the Council of State, it is not possible to object to a negative recommendation on an application, since a recommendation does not amount to an actual decision.
If the advice mentions the telephone number or e-mail address of the applicant, he or she will be informed by the mission and asked to make an appointment to apply for the MVV.
a. The applicant may inform the mission by e-mail as soon as he knows that IND has issued a positive advice. (For Beijing: [email protected] For Shanghai: [email protected] For Guangzhou: [email protected] ). The mission will confirm as soon as the advice is received and make an appointment with the applicant for the MVV application.
b. The applicant will be informed about the documents he should bring, and must take care, if necessary, of legalisation of the necessary documents in advance.
c. The applicant must submit his application in person and within six months after the date of the positive advice by IND.
a. Take receipt of the application and establish the applicant's identity.
b. Check the documents required on the basis of the positive recommendation and the letters concerning conditions and required documents.
c. If the application is incomplete, the mission gives the applicant four weeks to rectify any omissions. If the meets the conditions, the mission will issue the MVV.
d. If the applicant does not meet the conditions or fails to provide all the required documents within the deadline for rectification, the mission will notify the IND and request that the application be reconsidered. The IND will then make a final decision. The decision may still be positive (for instance if the applicant is exempted from the usual rules or if the host has provided the IND with the missing information or documents). In that case, the mission will receive notification approving the issue of the MVV. If the decision is negative, the mission will receive a copy of the decision refusing the application, which will be given or sent to the applicant.
f. The mission also issues a letter containing the information about the duty to report to the local Aliens Police within three days of arrival in the Netherlands and about applying for a residence permit in the municipality in which he is going to live.
NB: The MVV holder has six months in which to enter the Netherlands from the date of issue.
Although the IND will have seen copies of some documents relating to the applicant when assessing the request for advice, the mission is still responsible for assessing the applicant's original documents.
NOTE: For registration at the Townhall in the Netherlands, the applicant will need a new, legalised Birth certificate and marriage- or unmarried certificate.
b. Legalise the necessary documents.
c. Apply for the MVV at a Dutch consulate or Embassy.
d. Inform the mission how the fee will be paid.
b. Set a deadline for the rectification of omissions if the application is incomplete.
d. Send the application immediately to the IND electronically.
a. A letter is sent to the host about the payment of the fee, unless the applicant has opted to pay the fee himself.
b. The IND also writes to the host requesting that the required information and documents be sent to the IND within two weeks.
c. Note: If the host is residing with the applicant outside the Netherlands, he should supply the mission with the documents relating to his situation (as set out in the letters concerning conditions and required documents for the applicable purpose of stay) – if he has any – together with those concerning the applicant. The documents will be sent by mail to IND for the assesment of the MVV application.
d. Every day the IND checks what payments have been received and the applications to which they relate.
e. If the host does not pay the fee, he is given a further two weeks to rectify this omission.
f. When the application is complete and the fee has been paid, the file goes to the IND staff member charged with making a decision.
g. The IND sends the decision on the MVV application to the mission electronically.
a. The mission will contact the applicant (preferably in writing by e-mail) to make an appointment for him to collect the MVV.
b. The applicant reports to the mission. The mission will check the identity of the applicant on the basis of his travel document or – if he has taken the civic integration examination on the basis of his fingerprints in the Civic Integration Examination Biometric System (IEBS).
d. The mission also issues a letter containing the information about the duty to report to the local Aliens Police within three days of arrival in the Netherlands and about applying for a residence permit in the municipality in which he is going to live.

98 arts and culture groups to receive special COVID-19 funding
Groups say money will be used to pay workers, bills and plan for the future

Nearly 100 arts and culture organizations in Nova Scotia are getting one-time grants between $2,000 and $75,000.
The province released the list of 98 recipients on Wednesday. The $2.1 million, first announced in November, is supposed to help the arts and culture community that has been struggling during COVID-19. Live theatre, festivals and other events were cancelled due to the pandemic.
Scott Long is the managing director and executive producer of the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo. He said they plan to use their $75,000 grant to keep people employed and cover other operational costs. They had to cancel the 2020 show, and are unsure of how it will operate this year.
"We're just anxious to get back to some sort of new normal, where we can do what we do best, which is put on shows, and perform and entertain people," said Long.

Zuppa Theatre Co. is receiving $15,000. Zuppa has been running in Halifax since 1998, but had to cancel all live shows and a tour in Ireland when the pandemic started.
Alex McLean, the co-artistic director, said they're using the money to hire writers and collaborators to create new shows, so they're ready for when they can have an audience again.
He said they've been "comparatively lucky" throughout the pandemic. Zuppa has an office but not its own theatre space.
"My concerns are what happens in a year? What happens in two years?" said McLean. "There's a lot of people out there whose concerns are, how do I pay rent?"
McLean said a continual worry theatres face is that it may take awhile for people to feel comfortable being part of an audience again. Zuppa is planning a show they hope to perform live in December.
Zuppa also has its app, Vista, which started in 2018 to provide a walking tour with a twist. Designed to be done anywhere, the app takes the listeners on a walk as they hear different dialogues about public health.
The app transitioned quite easily into the COVID-19 era. Vista20 was updated to include experiences of public health workers in Nova Scotia during April and May of 2020.
The culture sector employs 13,000 Nova Scotians and is valued at $929 million, according to the Nova Scotia government.

Michelle Bastian Sentenced to Prison after Plotting Terror Attack in Arizona
PHOENIX - Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich announced Michelle Marie Bastian will spend 8.5 years behind bars for plotting a terrorist attack at an Arizona Prison Complex. A judge also sentenced Bastian to lifetime probation after she is released from prison. In June 2017, Bastian pleaded guilty to Terrorism and Conspiracy to Commit Misconduct Involving Weapons. Bastian is the second defendant to be convicted on state terrorism charges by the Arizona Attorney General's Office.
"Preventing terrorist attacks in Arizona is our highest priority," said Attorney General Mark Brnovich. "We will continue to work closely with our local, state, and federal law enforcement partners in the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force to identify and prosecute anyone planning terrorist activity."
"Today's sentencing demonstrates law enforcement's commitment to prevent acts of terrorism and apprehend those who plot to commit acts of terrorism in Arizona," said Michael DeLeon, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Phoenix Field Office. "This case underscores the dedication of the FBI and our partners within the Joint Terrorism Task Force who work around the clock to protect this country from those who seek to do us harm. I would again, commend the Arizona Attorney General's Office and the Department of Corrections for their integral role in this investigation."
On May 1, 2016 and October 12, 2016, Michelle Bastian plotted to commit an act of terrorism at the Arizona State Prison Complex – Lewis where her husband, Thomas Bastian, is currently an inmate. Bastian knowingly sent items to her husband to be used to construct and set off an explosive device within the prison facility. These items included instructions about how to make a homemade explosive device as well as terrorism propaganda and information in support of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria also known as ISIS or ISIL.
Thomas Bastian is currently awaiting trial. He is charged with 4 felony counts including Terrorism, Conspiracy to Commit Terrorism, Conspiracy to Commit Misconduct Involving Weapons, and Conspiracy to Promote Prison Contraband.
The Phoenix Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Arizona Department of Corrections, and the Arizona Attorney General's Office investigated this case.
AZAG Senior Litigation Counsel Blaine Gadow and Assistant Attorney General Scott Blake are prosecuting this case.

Laois Communities encouraged to act to protect local biodiversity as grant process opens
Biodiversity Walk and Talk at Abbeyleix Bog, organised by Laois PPN in 2020
Communities in Laois that are committed to protecting biodiversity and wildlife are being offered an opportunity to work with an expert ecologist under additional grant supports.
The supports are being offered by The Community Foundation for Ireland in partnership with the National Parks and Wildlife Service at the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage as part of a joint Community and Nature Fund, which is now in its third year.
Local groups in Laois are being invited to apply under three strands, each with the aim of developing actions which will deliver real results with a Community Biodiversity Plan.
Communities will work with an ecologist to draw up a community biodiversity action plan within their local community or with two or 3-5 local landowners.
The aim is to contribute towards reversing a crisis which has seen nature and biodiversity under severe threat.
The grants are available in three strands. Under Strand 1, grants of up to €5,000 for community groups to work with an ecologist to classify their local habitats, assess their condition and extent, map them, and define a suite of actions to enhance biodiversity
Under Strand 2, grants of up to €7,500 for community groups who carry out the work outlined in Strand 1 in collaboration with one or two land managers/owners to classify habitats at landscape scale with a focus on field boundaries (hedgerows, treelines and stone walls), assess their condition and extent, map them and define a suite of actions to enhance biodiversity
While under Strand 3, grants of up to €10,000 for community groups who carry out the work outlined in Strand 1 in collaboration with three to five land managers/owners to classify habitats at landscape scale with a focus on field boundaries (hedgerows, treelines and stone walls), assess their condition and extent, map them and define a suite of actions to enhance biodiversity.
Denise Charlton, Chief Executive of The Community Foundation for Ireland, encouraged community groups to apply.
She said: "There is real passion and energy in local communities to reverse the crisis facing our native plants and animals.
"Our fund has already seen citizen scientists mobilised to protect peat-lands, native butterflies, butterflies, bats and birds as well as plants and trees even during a pandemic.
"Now we are setting ourselves long term goals by offering communities access to ecologists who will advise and guide on the actions which need to be taken.
"This will see groups re-assured that the actions they take are the right ones which will be impactful by delivering benefits not just for the immediate future but for generations to come."
Full details of the application process are available at www.communityfoundation.ie and the closing date is November 12.

A teenager who was attacked by racist and homophobic thugs in Harrogate in January has admitted he now feels 'unsafe' in some parts of town.
The 18-year-old was travelling home just past midnight on January 28, when he was targeted by two men in their 40s after getting off the 1C bus.
He walked past the two men who grabbed him and held his arms behind his back. The man who restrained him pushed him forward while the other punched and kicked him in the face.
During the terrifying attack, the men made racial and homophobic slurs towards the teenager who was then left on the street with numerous cuts to his head and face.
The teenager, who talked to the Harrogate Advertiser about the attack this week, was left shocked and hurt and said he was scared to think how the men had realised his sexuality.
He said: "I had never met the men before in my life but they came out with a lot of homophobic and racial slurs. It really scared me that they knew I was gay because it left me thinking did somebody tell them? How did they find out?
"When I got into the house I couldn't function properly. I blacked out, I was sick and my memory kept fading in and out. When I started to calm down I got upset because I was at home feeling unsafe.
Many residents expressed their shock that the attack had taken place in Harrogate, but the teenager admitted violent incidents were becoming more commonplace in town and added there were now areas where he feels unsafe.
"A few things like this do go on in Harrogate. Young people round here are starting to become less shocked because they know there are some bad crowds around here.
"There's a lot of areas now where teenagers are taking drugs and getting into fights. I feel safe in my community but when you start to go into these areas you start to worry.
Despite reporting the attack to police, the teenager stressed there were still issues surrounding the reporting of hate crime which have been discussed within the Harrogate LGBT Youth Group.
During the group's recent meeting one girl revealed she did not inform the police even after she was attacked for being transgender as she didn't feel anything could be done.
