Seely Place Sixth Graders Get CPR Training
On Wednesday April 21, Seely Place Elementary School, in conjunction with the American Heart Association, conducted a CPR training program for all 6th-graders. The impetus behind the program was last summer's near-death incident with EHS Senior Cody Fisher. Since then, Cody and his mother, Alisa Herschaft, have been active advocates for CPR/AED training. As a result, more than 42 faculty members voluntarily completed a training workshop this past fall, with future workshops planned. While Fisher and Herschaft considered that a good start, their vision extended much further.
Through their efforts, the American Heart Association donated more than 150 training kits (CPR Anytime™ for Family and Friends) so that every 6th-grader, at both Seely and Greenville Elementary Schools, could not only learn CPR, but also take the kits home to teach their parents and friends. Each kit contained an inflatable mannequin, an instructional DVD and a booklet. "From the minute I walked into the building this morning, there was tremendous enthusiasm for the program," said Mark Hurley of The AHA.
Program facilitator Letitia Osborne explained to the children, that administering CPR could double or triple the chances for survival if someone stops breathing. In addition to full and hands-only CPR instruction, children learned how to respond to a choking victim and Captain Lis, from the Greenville Fire Department, provided an overview about the use of an AED machine. Herschaft realized the importance of knowing CPR after Cody nearly died from cardiac arrest last summer while working at a sleep-away camp. "If it had happened in front of me I would have had to call 911 and wait," she said. As Captain Park, of the Greenville Fire Department, said, "from the time you dial 911, to when help is dispatched and arrives, it could be 3-5 minutes. Knowing how to do CPR immediately could make a huge difference."
As Alisa watched the training session, she dabbed away tears from her eyes. Today is of particular significance to her as it is also Cody's 18th birthday, a day he reached largely due to these life-saving techniques. "I'm just so happy he's alive, and doing so great," she said. This fall, Cody will be attending SUNY Albany School of Business, a rare honor for a freshman, and will be managing the school's football team. When asked what he thought about the fact that this program happened to be taking place on his birthday he said, "It's really heartwarming. A great gift."
At-Home personal CPR Training Kits are available, for $35, through the American Heart Association website or 877-AHA-4CPR.
Betsy Cadel is an Edgemont resident, freelance writer, and wants to wish Cody a very happy birthday.

Report from the Greenacres Town Meeting
Scarsdale's leaders gathered on March 11th to greet Greenacres residents, review town matters and answer questions. The turn out was terrific, and before the start of the program neighbors had the chance to get acquainted, snack, purchase Girl Scout cookies and renew their Greenacres Association memberships.
Panelists included the Police and Fire Chiefs, Al Gatta and Suzanna Busby from Village Hall, Greenacres Principal Gerry Young, School Board President Barbara Kemp, School Superintendant Mike McGill, Gary Sastow for SVAC, Jim Buck for the Volunteer Fire Company and Deputy Mayor Sharon Lindsay. Each was asked to give a two-minute update, with timing strictly enforced with a bell.
Police Chief John Brogan reported that construction on the new Police Headquarters building is now a few months behind schedule but assured the group that an efficient though temporary command center has been set up and that they can book, fingerprint and even hold suspects in the Police Trailer on Tompkins Road.
Jim Buck Volunteer Firefighter encouraged residents to join, saying that fighting fires "is the most fun you can have with your clothes on." The firefighters work together as a team and the company will train volunteers to fight fires respond in an emergency and promote safety.
The Recreation Department is now enrolling residents for Day Camp, Tennis programs and pool permits, according to Recreation Department Superintendent Suzanne Busby. Enrollment at the Day Camp was up 25% last year and the return rate for staff for this coming summer is at an all time high. This year, they will be offering a film making program and an extended day at Camp Pathunke for children in grades 3 through 8. Sign up for camp by April 1st, to get an early bird discount.
It is increasingly challenging to finance Village government and services as costs are rising and residents are challenging their tax assessments. Village Manager Al Gatta told the group that the Village had received an unprecedented number of appeals to lower property taxes this year. At the same time, residents called for road repairs, tree removal and maintenance and the Village's ability to self-govern is running into conflict with our ability to fund these activities.
All's well at Greenacres School, where Principal Gerry Young has started a Haiti Relief Fund. He is calling on students to bring in their loose pennies and is hoping to collect a million pennies for the fund. Also under consideration at the school is the closing of Huntington Avenue during school hours to give children access to the playground and eliminate the need for staff to serve as crossing guards during the school day.
School Board President Barbara Kemp was pleased to report that the proposed tax increase to fund the school budget would be just under 3% and that Scarsdale Teacher's had reopened their contract and agreed to forgo 1% in contracted salary increases for the next two years. This will mean a savings of $1,900,000 to the Scarsdale Schools. She encouraged everyone to vote for the budget on May 18th and hoped that we could improve on last year's voter turnout, which was only 7%.
The Scarsdale Schools just celebrated their 225th Anniversary with a concert and lecture by residents Nicolas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, according to Superintendant Mike McGill. He told the group that our schools are nationally recognized and reports that the district is now doing exploratory work on what our schools should look like in 2050.
The Scarsdale Volunteer Ambulance Corps provides emergency services 24 hours a day using both paid paramedics and volunteers. They begin the life-saving process as soon as they arrive. Sadly, their appeals to the community for funding are not getting the response they need to meet their budget and they will have to dip into their reserve funds. Sastow asked the community to give to ensure that we continue to have this wonderful service available to the community.
Deputy Mayor Sharon Lindsay addressed community concerns about flooding. After the storm in April 2007, consultants were hired to investigate, and Scarsdale applied for grants to ameliorate the situation. The County has given us $1,450,000 and we will issue bonds to raise the balance of the funds needed to build a detention basic at George Field Park that will hold three million gallons of water and to clear the watercourse downstream. In the meantime, our public works department has dredged the watercourse and taken temporary steps to alleviate flooding until the bigger project can be started.
The session was then opened for questions. One resident asked if it would be possible to bury the power lines and Gatta responded that the cost would be millions of dollars and that it was not likely at this time. When discussing recycling, it was revealed that Village solid waste has decreased 30% in the past five years, indicating that residents are cooperating with recycling programs. Another resident complained about "uncivilized dog walkers" who constantly leave waste on her property and the police offered to help.
A Windmill Road homeowner told the group that there was a Village tree down on her property and just one day later we learned it had already been removed.
Strong work by Deborah Pekarek and the Greenacres Association, and thanks so much to all of the panelists for their time.
Neighborhood Association News
The Presidents of Scarsdale's Neighborhood Associations (SNAP) met on Monday night 4/5 and covered lots of ground. School Board members Linda Chayes and Jill Spieler attended to update the group on the status of the proposed school budget for 2010-2011. The School Board will meet with the community on Thursday night April 8th to get feedback on the budget and on April 19 they will present the proposed budget. They encourage everyone to vote for the budget on May 18.
Here are some highlights of the 2010-2011 School Budget:
The current proposed budget would require a 2.88% budget increase for Scarsdale residents and a 6.1% increase for residents of the Mamaroneck Strip. However, due to a recently announced decrease in tax assessments, the Board will need to find another $400,000 by dipping into reserves, raising the tax rate or decreasing the budget. They will make their decision before April 19 when the proposed budget is due.
Teachers agreed to forego 1% of their salary increase for the next two years and in the third year to accept a 2% increase. Nine teaching positions, open due to attrition, will not be filled. In exchange for the salary concessions the Board agreed that there would be no layoffs for the next two years, though the number of teachers can be adjusted in response to drops in enrollment. The Board will make every effort to preserve class sizes.
A revenue committee is being formed to investigate potential sources of funds for the schools. They will look into the formation of a school foundation, changes in regulations for accepting donations, pay for play for sports programs and other options. The Board is seeking committee members and if you are interested in participating, please email the Board of Education.
The administration has proposed a full day kindergarten program, adjusting kindergarten from a 24-hour to a 30-hour week program. The Board supports the decision which will save the district $50,000 in transportation costs.
The Board agreed to retain the third Assistant Principal at Scarsdale High School, as she has been effective at student intervention, communication with students and parents and the ninth grade orientation program.
State aid to the district remains questionable. Governor Paterson recently proposed a cut of $1.4 billion to state schools and the Board is uncertain how much of the promised funds will come our way.
In other neighborhood business, SNAP welcomed David Bunzel representing the Heathcote Association, a group of 20-30 homes surrounding the Duck Pond in Heathcote.
Mayor Carolyn Stevens announced that the two new Village Trustees, Kay Einsenman and Jon Mark had been sworn in. She also announced trustee liaisons to the neighborhood associations.
Mayor Steves updated the group on the storm and discussed village management, Con Edison, village communications, costs and next steps. Though the storm was costly, if President Barak Obama signs, Scarsdale will receive $350,000 in emergency funds to reimburse us for costs incurred during the storm. She explained how she asked our public officials to intervene to get a response from Con Edison, reviewed the breakdown in Village communications and outlined her next steps to assure better service down the line. She also recommended that residents who wanted to install back-up generators file a permit and use a licensed electrician as a faulty generator had recently caused a house fire on Post Road.
Janet Bell of the Heathcote Five Corners Association asked the Mayor to look into the presence of a large "For Rent" sign near Bistro Citron. She thought that it violated Village Code. She also asked the Mayor if there was any new information on development of the Tavern building, and was told that there were no new plans at this time.
The Planning Board approved an 11,000 square foot building at the Five Corners on the site of the gas station. There will be two levels above ground and two levels of parking below. In addition, the village has permitted the developers to include a truck-loading zone on Heathcote Road. Several members of SNAP expressed concern that large trucks would block driver site lines on Heathcote Road and cause a hazard. However, the site plan has already been approved.
Neighborhood Associations were asked to complete an inventory of homes in their area for the Committee on Historic Preservation. The survey includes questions about neighborhood character, age of homes etc. The Committee will use the survey data in their work to establish new criteria for historic preservation in Scarsdale.

Nowadays you see a lot of Salted Egg used as a flavour on dishes, like crab, chicken, vegetables, waffles, even potato chips and French fries. It's like the new bacon where you can put it in everything and it will taste even better, just the salty eggy, gritty texture is something to crave for. Now if you love prawns and salted egg yolk then better check this out, how about a dish prepared with these two ingredients? It's delicious, paired with some plump juicy fresh prawns, this thing is something to die for. Have you tried any salted egg dishes out there? If yes what are they and do you like it?
Season prawns in sugar, salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Combine flour and corn-starch on a large bowl.
Dip each prawn into the beaten eggs then into the flour mixture. Deep fry in a 180C preheated deep fryer until prawns are cooked and golden brown, this will take around 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside cooked prawns.
Prepare a wok, add oil then sauté garlic.
Add the salted egg yolks, prawns, butter and curry leaves, stir fry until fragrant. Toss to completely coat the prawns with the sauce, serve.
Salted eggs available at Asian groceries. That world-wide internet seller is too expensive yet same brand at Asian groceries.
I'm not familiar with salted egg. Is it just egg yolks with salt? Or is it something different?

Congratulations to Jim Liesenfelt and all those working at Space Coast Area Transit. They have been named Top Transit Provider in Florida.
This is an email I received from Keith Heinly, coordinator of Brevard Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster. Should you be interested in attending these meeting contact Heinley. You may call him, email or simply attend the upcoming meeting.
I am resending this email to the membership of the Brevard Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster (VOAD), other agencies, and to the local faith-based organizations. For those who may not be aware, the Brevard VOAD is a non-dues affiliation of agencies, churches, and other not for profit organizations. The affiliation is active during disaster pre-planning through post disaster support by acting as a clearinghouse for disaster assistance.
We are presently in the process of revitalizing the Brevard VOAD through the development of two task groups; the VOAD Membership Committee and the VOAD Operations Task Group. During these meetings we discussed the need to recruit and train Emergency Support Function – 15 (ESF-15) volunteers to serve at the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) before, during and after a disaster. Most of the training is completed online on the http://www.FEMA.gov web site. Volunteers will also receive E-Team software training provided by Brevard Emergency Management. We also discussed the need to know who they will need to contact for specific requests such as debris removal, food assistance, clean-up kits, and installing tarps on roofs. During the meeting we identified many of those contacts, but we also identified some potential gaps in response.
We began developing a usable electronic database so that we can quickly access the names and the services needed. This database will be utilized at the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) during times of disaster. They will need immediate data to provide the response necessary to reduce the loss of life and human suffering, and minimize property damage. I realize that many of you have sent paper applications in the past, but this is a format that will provide easier access and a quicker response. I am asking that each agency, individual, and faith-based organization take a few moments and complete the Brevard VOAD Disaster Network Information survey monkey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BVDN. As you know, providing accurate information and maintaining communication are extremely important elements in disaster response and recovery. I want to express my appreciation to those who have already responded.
Your participation is very important for an effective response to a disaster. There are benefits to your agency, church, or faith-based organizational as well. As an example, we can assist you in maximizing your potential for reimbursement for volunteer hours spent in response to a disaster. You will also benefit from the training and resources provided by participating agencies. Coordination, communication and education will foster cooperation from all of our local resources.
You do not need to be an active member of the Brevard VOAD in order to respond. But, if you wish to attend the meetings, they are held at the BCC Solar Energy Center 1679 Clearlake Road, Cocoa, Fl. on the second Thursday of each month at 9 AM. The next meeting of the Brevard VOAD will be July 14, 2011. We look forward to your participation.

Anderson Independent Mail
Megan Dobbins' entire life was based around the family dairy farm. At its peak, Pine Lane Farm, now called Four M Farm, had 300 cows. Now that she no longer sees them every day, she said she feels empty.
"It's a sad, empty feeling to know that there's no cow standing out here," she said. "You can't just walk out here and love on one because they're gone and you've seen them out here your whole life. And they're just gone."
Four M Farm in Townville was one of the last conventional, family-owned dairy farms in Anderson County before it closed earlier this year after 46 years. The last milking day for the Dobbins family was April 3 and the cows were sold off later that week.
Dairy cow numbers dropping
In South Carolina, the number of dairy cows has continued to drop. At its peak, there were about 190,000 cows in 1945, according to Adam Kantrovich, associate professor of agribusiness at the Clemson University Cooperative Extension.
As of July, there were 14,000, according to United States Department of Agriculture estimates.
Twenty years ago, there were 33 dairy farms in Anderson County, according to Kantrovich. By 2012, only seven were still producing and selling milk. Now, there's only one.
Dobbins remembers the day they sold their dairy cows.
"The morning the cows left, we loaded them up on potbelly trucks and you look at the cows you've raised from calves, and you think, 'I hope she knows I tried. I hope she knows that,'" Dobbins said as her voice broke.
Dobbins, 35, said she knew all the cows on the farm, but she had a favorite: a Brown Swiss cow named Candy.
"They were family," Dobbins said, rolling up her left shirt sleeve to show a tattooed portrait of Candy on the farm. Her right arm bears a tattoo of the farm itself.
The last farm in the county
Experts at the Clemson University Cooperative Extension confirmed that Anderson County's last known operating dairy farm is L.D. Peeler's 41-year-old Milky Way Farm in Starr.
Milky Way Farm sells unpasteurized milk and also sells milk to the public, which is what sets it apart from the pasteurized milk once sold to a co-op by Four M.
In other situations, being the only producer of something might be a positive thing, but Peeler said it's the opposite.
Because so many local dairies have gone out of business, so has the infrastructure needed to maintain them.
He finds himself having to travel to other states to get the replacement parts he needs to keep his equipment running.
"As long as I've been in the dairy business, I have never, ever thought about exiting the business, but it has crossed my mind now," Peeler said.
Rising costs, shrinking demand
Peeler said he's not making a profit at this point, but he's able to make ends meet. His son runs the day-to-day operations of the farm and loves doing it, so Peeler keeps the farm going.
The purchase price of milk peaked at $27.30 in 2014 and then plummeted and hasn't rebounded much since then, Kantrovich said.
The popularity of nut milks has also played a role by causing the demand for cow's milk to decrease.
It costs $17 per cow per day to get 100 pounds of milk, Dobbins and Peeler both said. But a co-op buyer would only pay $16 and $14 respectively for the same amount. That doesn't account for the other costs of keeping the farm running.
And, statewide, milk production in 2018 dropped to an annual average below what farmers would need to be financially sustainable, Kantrovich said.
A way of life
The average consumer probably won't notice anything as small family farms die off, Kantrovich said. But it's a life-altering shift for the farmer, whether they switch to another product or shut down the farm altogether.
TELLING IMPORTANT STORIES
Through local journalism we help keep you informed about issues important to the community. Become a subscriber and access all our stories. Here's our special offer.
The decision to close the family farm or change the farm's product is usually especially hard because these farms often go back several generations, Kantrovich said.
"They usually do not want to be the last generation farming, they may feel as if they are letting down themselves, their family and previous generations," he said. "They may feel as if they have somehow failed, but they have not.
"Farming is a business, it is a family business, but it is also a way of life — a hard but good life."
Next steps for Dobbins
There are still some animals living on the land at Four M Farm. Dobbins' ideal outcome would be to turn the farm into an agritourism destination focused on educating people about farmers and their products.
"For so many kids, you've taken away knowing where the food comes from," she said. "We go to the grocery store and get it, but how does it get to the grocery store?
"If you kill all the farmers off, where's your food gonna come from? Do you want it to be all processed and out of a plant?"
She's not sure if her dreams of agritourism can happen, but she doesn't want to see her family's land sold off.
"With it being so close to the interstate, somebody could come and try to develop it," she said. "You just never know. I would hate to see it all leveled out and be a strip mall."

Very often in castings, the headshot photo will determine whether or not an actor/actress/model makes the first cut.
For new talent, it is especially important for the photographer to be able to guide and direct the model. Part of growth as a model is being able to learn from photographers and to get to a point where they know their "angles". This makes it necessary for the photographer to actually have the knowledge to pass on. Otherwise, it is a case of the blind leading the blind. For more experienced models/actors, it is a lot easier but they still need some guidance, especially if the goal of the session is to achieve a particular look.
Other considerations are the photographer's skill at lighting especially when in comes to being able to handle indoor and outdoor locations, to make use of natural and artificial lighting and to blend them when the occasion calls for it.
It is always advisable to take a good look at the photographer's portfolio to get an understanding of their competence with lighting, checking how much work they have had published and if they have worked with agencies. If you are looking to get your portfolio built, you want someone who has a good sense of what agents/clients look for. A phone call or in-person meeting would be a very good idea. Get in touch with me at photo@pixyst.com if you need help with this.

Some dogs may develop separation anxiety when their owners return to work, so we asked experts how prevent it
Shoshi Parks
Dogs are spending more time with their owners during the coronavirus pandemic.
Halfpoint Images/Getty Images
A dog with separation anxiety experiences a panic attack when left alone, which may include barking, destruction, and accidents.
Abrupt changes in routine can trigger separation anxiety in dogs, especially when people begin to return to work or school after a long stay at home.
Setting up a routine, getting space from your dog, practicing absences, and increasing training and enrichment may help set a dog up for a successful return to being left home alone regularly.
We spoke to veterinary behaviorist Dr. Karen Sueda, separation anxiety specialist Malena DeMartini-Price, and certified separation anxiety trainer Jennifer Pratt to get advice on how to prevent this disorder.
Separation anxiety is one of the most challenging behavior disorders for dogs — and their families — to overcome. Canine sufferers don't just dislike being away from their humans; they experience full-blown panic attacks when left alone. During an episode, a dog may bark or howl nonstop, destroy the home, have accidents, and exhibit a variety of other stress-induced behaviors.
According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, between 20% and 40% of dogs seen by animal behaviorists in North America are diagnosed with separation anxiety. The American Kennel Club reported that approximately 14% of all dogs may suffer from the disorder. Some are genetically predisposed to the problem, but separation anxiety can also be triggered later in a dog's life, often by a traumatic event such as ending up at a shelter or by a drastic, sudden change in routine.
Stay-at-home orders led to significant changes in routine that can cause stress in dogs
With the coronavirus pandemic, millions of people stayed home with their dogs all day long, and their dogs are sensitive to this. "Dogs thrive on consistency and predictability, as we all do, so anytime there's an abrupt change, it can cause stress," said Dr. Karen Sueda, a veterinary behaviorist at VCA West Los Angeles Animal Hospital.
As people return to work, dogs are returning to long days alone. For some dogs, the transition will be taken in stride, but others, especially those who have suffered from anxiety in the past, will experience stress, fear, or even panic.
To understand how owners can set their dogs up for success when they return to work, I spoke to several experts on the subject. Veterinary behaviorist Sueda provided a clinical perspective on separation anxiety, and Malena DeMartini-Price, a separation anxiety specialist and the author of "Treating Separation Anxiety in Dogs," shared insight from more than two decades of experience. I also spoke with certified separation anxiety trainer Jennifer Pratt, owner of Wag the Dog and Company in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and have included observations from my own work over the last four years as a certified separation anxiety trainer.
It's important to establish a routine for your dog now so they are prepared when you return to work
While there is no silver bullet when it comes to preventing separation anxiety, there are things you can do in advance to prepare your dog for a seamless return to your old routine. According to Pratt, one of the most important things dog owners can do is establish a routine that closely resembles the one they had in place before stay-at-home orders were issued.
"Allow your pet to have some alone time. You have your space, and they have theirs," said Sueda. Even if you don't have anywhere to go outside of the house, you can put your dog behind a pet gate or in a separate room.
You should leave your dog alone in the house on occasion, particularly if they have not struggled with separation anxiety in the past. "I typically tell people that they are going to want to do an absence minimally three days a week and try to sprinkle in things like going to the mailbox [while leaving the dog inside]," said DeMartini-Price. Use the time out of the house to do essential shopping, take a walk, or sit outside with a book for an hour.
Experts say you should create space between you and your dog at times, but do not withhold attention.

If your dog has experienced anxiety or panic when left alone in the past, suddenly leaving three times a week is likely to be too stressful. In that case, it's important to determine how soon after you've walked out the door your dog's panic begins.
Do they bark or have an accident immediately after you've left the house? Are they relatively relaxed for several minutes before they display signs of anxiety? Using a security camera or webcam to observe your dog's behavior can give a good sense of how they might be feeling.
If your dog shows anxiety when you briefly leave them, you can help improve their response
For any dog that shows signs of panic at this stage of the game, this is a great time to work on improving their response to being left alone. "It's a gradual process of using small absences that start to teach the dog that absences are safe," said DeMartini-Price.
However, the method shouldn't be reserved for dogs that are already likely candidates for separation anxiety. DeMartini-Price believes dogs that have never shown separation anxiety in the past may be most at risk because there is less understanding of what may be happening when the dog is left alone.
While it's important to get space from your dog during the day, it's equally important not to withhold your affection when you are together. "Give your dogs love, give them attention, and don't think your dog has to ask for everything with a sit. None of that has to do with your dog getting separation anxiety," said Pratt. "I've actually seen dogs get worse [when their owners withhold their attention]. That's weird to them and that causes stress."
Use training, enrichment activities, and calming tools to set your dog up for success
Other forms of training could help make your dog's transition to more frequent alone time easier. Sueda recommends reinforcing calm behaviors using a go-to-mat cue or capturing relaxed postures. This is also a great time to work on slow, incremental x-pen or crate training.
Adding more enrichment is also valuable. "Creating an environment where the dog really loves interactive feeding toys and enjoys playing the 'find the treats hidden in the house' game can be really powerful [because] when we go back to work we can give them something to do," said DeMartini-Price.
Before you return to work or school, Sueda recommends gradually building up the amount of time you are away, rather than jumping from zero to 10 hours a day. You can gradually increase your time away over a period of one to two weeks. During that time, observe your dog's reaction to your absence over a camera like the affordable Wyze Cam.
Use a webcam to see if your dog is stressed or relaxed while you're away from home.

Sueda said that dog-appeasing pheromone (DAP), white noise, and nutraceuticals like Zylkene or Anxitane might also help reduce anxiety. Be sure to introduce them when you're at home so your dog doesn't only associate them with you leaving.
Be prepared to reach out for help if your dog shows distress
Having a network of people to help your dog and family navigate going back to work and school will also make the transition easier. "I really feel like now is the time to pay your dog walker and pay your dog daycare provider," said DeMartini-Price. She also thinks it's crucial to make new neighborhood connections so someone is available to care for your dog if they begin experiencing distress.
"I suspect that there are going to be some dogs that just have a little bit of an adjustment period. That's probably going to be pretty normal," said DeMartini-Price. If your dog continues to experience anxiety after the transition, speak to a veterinarian or certified separation anxiety trainer.
However your dog reacts to your absence, don't blame yourself for their distress. "Whenever I have a chance, I always try to remind people that this is not their fault, and this situation in particular, with COVID-19, is chaotic for the world. This is just one other aspect of [the disruption]," said DeMartini-Price.

Travelling and Entertainment Expenses
8.205. Reference has been made in Chapter 7 to the interpretation given to the general deduction section (section 51) of the Act. It is there recommended that an apportioned amount of an outgoing should be denied deduction where it can be inferred from all the circumstances that the character of the outgoing is in part a payment for a purpose which is not the gaining of income. It is not intended, however, that merely because an outgoing such as travelling and entertainment expenses might be said to be extravagant, some part of it must be denied deduction. The proposition asserted in the authorities that the law does not enable the Commissioner to say how much a taxpayer should spend in the gaining of income will continue to be valid. The Committee would not favour provisions, of the kind included in the Canadian law, which would give the Commissioner power to disallow a deduction if he considers that the expenditure involved is unreasonable.
8.206. It may nonetheless be appropriate for the law to specify particular items of expenditure which are likely to involve substantial elements University private consumption by the proprietors of a business and deny them deduction. Recent amendments to the Act deny, for example, deductions of some expenditure on yachts and expenditure on club subscriptions.

Ive seen other posts about the port but no clear indication of a resolution.
Any help or a point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

A: Resolved by setting up WINRM properly on my local machine...
Follow these troubleshooting steps and then altering the json file to not include port forwarding as VirtualBox does not need it.
The port that it says its using in cmd when running packer is just the host that it is forwarding to the winrm guest port.

Q: jquery val returning object instead of string This is the first time I have faced this particular issue. I have been using the .val() method very often but it has never returned an object. Here's the jquery code for this section:
    $("#ResidentialLocationStateList").change(function () {
    url = "/ResidentialBuilding/getCityList?=state";
    state = $("#ResidentialLocationStateList").val();
    url = url + state;
    $.getJSON(url, function (data) {
        console.log(data);
    });
});

The ResidentialLocationStateList is a multiple select dropdown menu. When I try to make a JSON call, an empty array is returned (which i know is wrong).
A console.log() of state reveals something of this kind
["AZ"] as opposed to just a string.
Any idea whats going on here?
UPDATE
Here's the html markup. The cities that are retrieved from the AJAX call will be populated inside the checkboxes div using a checkbox.

A: That is normal since you have a multiple select dropdown. Since you can have more than 1 result, jQuery return a array of selected options. You can use join to have a string :
url = url + state.join(',');

Or if you want a single result :
url = url + state[0]; //This will fail if no option are selected


Manchester United will travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester City as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hopes to bounce back to winning ways on Sunday.
Solskjaer's winning run as Manchester United's caretaker manager came to an end on Tuesday after his team drew 2-2 with Burnley at Old Trafford. However, the Norwegian would have been proud with the way his team came back from 2-0 down to salvage a point in stoppage time.
Leicester City, meanwhile, will head into Sunday's fixture on a high following their 1-1 draw at Liverpool.
Anthony Martial missed the Burnley game due to injury but could return to the squad to face Leicester. Paul Pogba remains a doubt for the trip to the King Power Stadium after he picked up an injury against Burnley.
De Gea is United's undisputed No.1 in goal and he will be hoping to keep a clean sheet on Sunday.
Young has been impressive under Solskjaer, dishing out consistent performances at right-back.
Lindelof scored a stoppage-time equaliser to complete United's comeback against Burnley in midweek. He is playing at the top of his form and will keep his place in the team.
Partnering Lindelof at the back would be Jones, who'll have to be at his best to stop Jamie Vardy and co. at the weekend.
Shaw has made the left-back position his own this season. He is a certain starter against the Foxes.
Matic has been so vital for Manchester United under Solskjaer as his presence in the engine room gives the flair players the freedom to express themselves.
Herrera was rested in the midweek against Burnley and is likely to be recalled into the Manchester United starting XI at Leicester.
With Martial a doubt, Solskjaer could hand Alexis Sanchez a start on the left. The Chilean would be desperate to make a mark and guide United to all three points on Sunday.
Pogba remains doubtful for Sunday's game after he picked up an injury against Burnley. For the No.10 role, Lingard could get the nod ahead of Mata.
Lukaku could start on the right wing and give United's attack a different dimension against Leicester.
Rashford will be desperate to get on the score-sheet as Manchester United look to tame the Foxes at the King Power Stadium.

Александар Вукотић (Краљево, 22. јул 1995) српски је фудбалер, који тренутно наступа за Васланд-Беверен. Висок је 202 центиметра и игра на позицији централног одбрамбеног играча, а боље се сналази левом ногом.

Каријера

Почеци
Вукотић је фудбалом почео да се бави са 7 година у фудбалском клубу "Волеј" из Врњачке Бање. У млађим узрастима играо је на више позиција у тиму, нешто офанзивније, а 2007. године изабран је за најбољег клупског појединца у узрасту до 12 година. Током 10 година проведених у овом клубу, забележио је укупно 227 утакмица и постигао 175 голова, чиме је постао рекордер клуба по броју наступа и постигнутих голова.

Игре у овом клубу препоручиле су га краљевачкој Слоги, у коју је 2011. прешао као кадет, а потом наступао и за омладинце у квалитетној лиги Србије. За сениорску екипу Слоге дебитовао је 1. децембра 2012. године, заменивши Стефана Драшковића у другом полувремену утакмице против Баната. На званичној презентацији Прве лиге Србије тада је потписан као "Вукошић", што је унело конфузију на још неколико сајтова. За прву екипу Слоге наступио је укупно два пута, од чега је свих 90 минута одиграо против Пролетера у Новом Саду на затварању сезоне 2013/14.

По завршетку средње школе и окончању омладинског стажа, Вукотић прелази у Долину из Падине. За ову екипу наступао је као бонус играч у српској лиги Војводине током сезоне 2014/15.

Крупа
Лета 2015, Вукотић је приступио тадашњем члану Прве лиге Републике Српске, фудбалском клубу Крупа из истоименог места на реци Врбасу. Убрзо се усталио у стартној екипи овог клуба, одигравши већину утакмица током своје прве сезоне. Освојивши прво место у другом рангу такмичења, Вукотић је са Крупом обезбедио пласман у Премијер лигу БиХ. Почетком наредне сезоне, Вукотић је потписао професионални уговор са клубом на три године, када је аванзовао у капитена Крупе, која је јесењи део сезоне 2016/17. у Премијер лига Босне и Херцеговине завршила на 4. месту. Као најбоље оцењени играч Крупе, Вукотић се нашао у тиму сезоне првенства Босне и Херцеговине. Крајем 2017. Вукотић се нашао међу номинованим кандидатима за најбољег фудбалера Републике Српске у протеклој години. Почетком наредне године, Вукотић је и званично проглашен најбољим фудбалером Републике Српске.

Васланд-Беверен
Године 2018, 21. маја, Вукотић је потписао трогодишњи уговор са Васланд-Бевереном, чланом прве белгијске лиге. Вредност трансфера процењена је на 345 хиљада евра, као и 10% од наредног трансфера. Вукотић је за свој нови клуб званично дебитовао на отварању сезоне 2018/19, против Зулте Варегема, у гостима. Први гол за екипу Васланд-Беверена Вукотић је постигао у поразу од Гента резултатом 4ː1 у оквиру 3. кола првенства. Вукотић је утакмици 14. кола Прве лиге Белгије, у поразу од Андерлехта на домаћем терену, добио 5. јавну опомену у сезони, чиме је суспендован за наредно коло, против Серкл Брижа. Након истека суспензије, у поставу се вратио на сусрету са Мускроном, у оквиру 16. кола тог такмичења.

Репрезентација
Услед запажених игара у млађим категоријама на клупском нивоу, Вукотић је као члан академије "Волеј" добио позив у кадетску репрезентацију Србије, за коју је дебитовао 2011. године. Вукотић се, у октобру 2018. године нашао на списку играча селекције до 23 године старости, под вођством Милана Обрадовића, за пријатељску утакмицу против репрезентације Француске у узрасту до 20 година. Вукотић се на тој утакмици, одиграној 15. октобра 2018, нашао у стартној постави селекције Србије, а на терену је био до 79. минута, када је уместо њега у игру ушао Немања Текијашки.

Начин игре
У млађим узрастима, Вукотић је неретко наступао у офанзивном делу терена, а због своје ефикасности у фудбалском клубу "Волеј" добио је надимак "Терминатор", по филмском јунаку ког је тумачио Арнолд Шварценегер. Преласком у краљевачку Слогу, због изразите висине прекомандован је на место централног дефанзивца. Прву значајнију улогу у сениорској конкуренцији на тој позицији остварио је у Долини из Падине, да би потпуну афирмацију стекао играјући за Крупу. Приликом потписивања за овај клуб, изабрао је да носи број 15 на дресу, по угледу на свог фудбалског узора, Немању Видића.

Због леве ноге којом се боље сналази, Вукотић се у екипи Крупе адаптирао на месту левог штопера. Лета 2017. фигурирао је као појачање Црвене звезде, када је описан као фудбалер снажне конституције, са солидном брзином и техником у односу на позицију на којој наступа. Оцењен је као играч који добро чита игру и ситуације решава без претераног ризика, али и као опасан играч у фази напада, приликом прекида, односно фудбалер са прецизним дугим пасом. Том приликом је, због своје грађе, упоређен са Жарком Марковићем, такође изразито високим фудбалером и некадашњим полазником фудбалске школе овог клуба.

Пример фер игре капитена Крупе, Вукотића, против екипе Челика 25. новембра 2017, приликом ког је ради уласка противничког играча избацио лопту ван игре, оцењен је потезом кола у Премијер лиги Босне и Херцеговине.

Farmer Tim Carson is rethinking his policy on allowing people to visit crop circles in his fields after his honesty box was trashed last week.
Mr Carson, who farms at Alton Barnes, regularly has formations appear in the field below the Alton Barnes white horse.
The money box put out for visitors to make contributions was raided while he was on holiday last week.
He said: "This has left a sour taste. It must have been someone local who knew I was away and wasn't emptying the box every evening.
The box, a converted tool box welded to a 40-gallon drum, was in the middle of the field close to the circle. It had been forced open.
The complex seven-sided figure appeared in the field below Milk Hill at the beginning of June. A simpler design turned up in East Field, where Mr Carson also farms.
It was in one of his fields that the first "pictogram" design of crop circle appeared in 1991, sparking an international fascination with the formations.
Mr Carson has always been sceptical about their origins, but has had a "live and let live" attitude to investigators.
Others are not so tolerant. A 62-year-old man from Oldham was arrested after it was alleged shots were fired over the heads of two Norwegian tourists visiting a circle at Manor Farm, Allington, on July 13. He must report back to police in August.
Anyone with information about Mr Carson's theft is asked to contact Wiltshire police on 0845 408 7000.

Tucor's TRB-100 Tipping Rain Bucket is used along with the ET data from a remote Tucor Weather Station to generate accurate local rain data. While the Weather Station's ET data may be used by controllers that are some distance away from each other, the rain data may vary considerably over that area.
The TRB-100 will ensure that the Rain pulses being sent to a controller will reflect what is actually falling around that particular controller.


"A system development using artificial intelligence (AI) as core technology for navigation support system of domestic vessels" has been selected by Japan's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) for its 2018 Transportation Research and Technology Promotion Program*. Research that NYK Group companies MTI Co., Ltd. and Japan Marine Science Inc. (JMS) are currently conducting in collaboration with National University Corporation Kobe University.
Today, we released the research on avoidance navigation technology (i.e., maneuvering to avoid collisions with other vessels), which is part of the development of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) by NYK Group.
The NYK Group has been conducting the research on avoidance navigation technology (i.e., maneuvering to avoid collisions with other vessels) from two different approaches, both of which could lead to the development of an autonomous ship.
By applying the advanced AI method of deep reinforcement learning, a machine learning method in which an autonomous program learns the best behavior through repeated trials, a vast number of voyage simulations to learn optical avoidance navigation can be performed and a program can be developed to determine superior safe and economical avoidance behavior in various circumstances. Then the program can be connected to JMS's Ship Handling Simulator for quantitative evaluations of the program's operational ability, also be evaluated by experienced operators. In 2021, verification tests will be conducted in actual sea areas by connecting the program with an actual vessel operation system.
By digitizing knowledge and perceptions by experienced captains and officers and implementing the data into geometric mathematical models that calculate risk, a model can continuously calculate collision risk and automatically determine optimal routes and speeds that are safe and economical. A basic system has already developed, and demonstrations are now being conducted using JMS's Ship Handling Simulator. A quantitative evaluation of the system's operational ability and evaluation by experienced operators will be performed, and verification tests will be held on a vessel in actual sea areas around mid-2019.

What if there were a game where all the players were wearing skates?
In the NHL's upcoming season opener on Wednesday night, the Calgary Flames will be facing off against the New York Islanders in their final regular season game of the 2017-18 campaign.
The Islanders have yet to find the back of the net on the season but have found the back end of the game against the Calgary team to be their Achilles heel.
Last night, a goal was scored by defenseman Cody Hodgson that put the Islanders ahead.
This will be the first time the Islanders have faced a Flames team in a game since the 2010-11 season when the Islanders defeated Calgary 3-2 in a shootout.
"They are a pretty good team," Flames forward Cody Hodgkson said.
"They've got a good group of guys that have been around the league for a while.
You look at the way they play, the way their defense is.
I don't think we have been playing a lot of puck possession.
But you look at what they did tonight, and they played some great hockey."
Last season, Calgary defeated the Islanders 5-2, with the Flames holding a five-game lead in the best-of-seven series heading into Wednesday's game.
Injuries to the Flames' forward group are a concern heading into the game.
Right wing Mikael Backlund is expected to miss the first four games of the season, as well as defenseman Drew Stafford.
Backlund will miss the final two games of Calgary's schedule as well.
The Flames have also recalled forward Andrew Ference from the Hershey Bears of the American Hockey League.
Ference has six points (three goals, three assists) in six games this season.

Don Schliff and Scott MacConnell of Wine Warehouse and I recently drove down to Orange County to visit with Robert Lawrence Balzer, the grand ambassador of American wine culture. Robert, the first serious wine journalist in the U.S., has been a wine writer for close to 70 years. I had not seen him since his birthday before last and he will be 98 in June. A true Renaissance man and an epicurean, Robert has been a retailer, an actor, a restaurateur, a Buddhist monk, a flight instructor during World War II, a wine instructor and the author of 11 books. While age is finally catching up with him, he is still charming, knowledgeable and articulate, especially when reminiscing about the earlier days of California wine. He stills drinks wine and Scotch regularly, which he partially attributes to his long age. An amazing man, he has known the rich and famous in politics, food and wine, Hollywood and more.
Don Schliff, noted importer, wine collector and Bordeaux authority, graciously brought three bottles of wine with us. He opened a 1912 D'Oliveiras Verdelho Reserva Madeira, Balzer's birth year, served as an aperitif. D'Oliveiras, founded in 1820, is still owned by the same family, one of the few that survived the ravages of phylloxera.
The 1912 D'Oliveiras Verdelho Madeira, medium-dark golden-amber color, had a marvelous perfume of caramel, coffee and spice. It was surprisingly fresh, rich and balanced. Very flavorful, it hinted of caramel, flowers, coffee, spice, butterscotch and nuts, ending in a finish that seemed to go on forever –- fabulous wine. Madeira is one of the only wines that can benefit from exposure to air so the wines will drink beautifully for months and even years after being opened. Madeira is just one of the many places where Robert took the students of his wine classes.
Continuing on with lunch, it was a beautiful day so we ate outside by the pool, overlooking a large part of Orange County. Robert's nephew, Rex Shannon and his wife, Mary Jo and his assistant, Betsy Duran, were also there. Don opened two bottles of wine, a 1968 Souverain Cabernet Sauvignon and a 1999 Chateau Pavie. Lee Stewart harvested the first crop of grapes from his Howell Mountain property in 1944, which he named Souverain, French for sovereign or supreme. It became one of California's great wineries. Lee, a friend of Robert's, produced highly regarded Cabernets prized for their elegance and finesse.
The 1968 Souverain Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley (Lee's 25th harvest), dark color, with an amber edge, was still rich, with a perfume of cedary plum and spice. The mature flavors of plum, cedar, currant, berry and spice were balanced, finishing long — at a peak but still very nice.
The 1999 Chateau Pavie St. Emilion, a rich, dark color, with a black fruit perfume, was hedonistic, lush and extracted, with flavors of plum, cassis, anise, smoke, oak and leather. It was a big wine, full-bodied, with a good mouthfeel, smooth tannins and a long finish –- lovely.
The lovely lunch and delicious wines were made even more memorable by the delightful visit with Robert Balzer.
