A grand jury in Santa Clara, California, issued one on Monday, accusing Apple's chief security officer, Thomas Moyer, of offering bribes for safe carry permits for Apple employees.
According to a press release from Santa Clara District Attorney General Rosen, Moir allegedly donated 200 iPads worth $ 70,000 to the sheriff's office in exchange for four concealed weapons (CCW) "withdrawn from Apple employees". Promised.
"Tom Moyer is innocent of the charges against him. He did nothing wrong and worked with supreme loyalty throughout his career. We have no doubt that he will be acquitted in the trial, "Moyers' lawyer Ed Swanson said in a statement to CNBC.
An Apple spokesperson said in a statement, "We expect all our employees to conduct themselves with honesty. After knowing the allegations, we conducted a thorough internal investigation and committed no wrongdoing."
The charges, filed on Monday, are part of an investigation in 2019 into whether the Santa Clara sheriff has used secret carry permits to help with secret bribes and political donations. The sheriff's office covered Cupertino, California, where Apple's headquarters are located. Moyer has worked at Apple for 14 years and is now head of global security, his lawyer said on Monday.
The Santa Clara DA stated that state law requires that people obtaining a secret carry license in California be required to demonstrate "good cause," as well as a complete course of firearms and a good moral character , Sheriff is the final determination must be qualified.
"This case is about a long, bitter and very public dispute between the Santa Clara County Sheriff and the District Attorney, and Tom is the collateral damage to that dispute," Swon said in a statement on behalf of Moyer.
The Santa Clara DA alleges that officers in the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office, undersheriff Rick Sung, and Captain James Jensen, were part of a scheme where they requested bribes in exchange for easy approval of concealed permits. An insurance broker with political connections in San Jose was also charged with bribing an exchange permit on Monday.
In 2020, an investigation by the NBC Bay Area found that donors to the Santa Clara Sheriff's political campaigns were about 14 times more likely to receive concealed weapons than those who did not contribute. Sheriff Laurie Smith has not been charged. Earlier, four people were charged with conspiracy and bribery in August as a result of the investigation.
According to the Santa Clara DA, the promised donation of iPads was never met, as it was removed in August 2019 following a search warrant for concealed carry records at the Sheriff's Office.

In Burlington, Bodily Injury Liability and Property Damage Liability are two valuable insurance coverages you should understand--at least when it comes to the basics. By law, most states require drivers to maintain a minimum amount of BI and PDL. Property Damage Liability comes in handy when you cause an accident that damages someone else's property. It will help pay for this damage. What is Bodily Injury? If you or someone on your policy causes a car accident that injures another person, Bodily Injury Liability helps protect you financially. This coverage helps cover the other person's medical bills and pay for things like x-rays, casts, and stitches, along with lost income as a result of their injuries. If you're sued over the accident, it can also assist in paying for your legal fees. Even most no-fault states require drivers to have Bodily Injury on their policies.
Keep in mind that Bodily Injury Liability insurance won't help pay for your medical expenses, lost income, or any accident-related repairs to your vehicle. In terms of your own bills after a covered accident, legal fees are about the only expenses that Bodily Injury Liability will help cover. If you're losing sleep over how you'd pay for your own troubles after a covered accident, just give us a call! We'll walk you through the ins-and-outs of other important coverages like Medical Payments, Comprehensive, Collision, and Under/Uninsured Motorist.
What's the best amount of liability insurance to have in terms of Bodily Injury in Burlington? It depends. You could get North Carolina's statutory minimum Bodily Injury Liability limits. You could also go with higher limits.
The coverage "limits" are maximum amounts of money that your car insurance will pay out if you make a claim for a covered loss. Bodily Injury limits are often illustrated in two amounts, something that is referred to as "split limits." The first amount is the sum of money that the company will pay for damages per person. The second amount is the most they'll pay per accident. Going with low limits could help you find cheap auto insurance, but it also means you could be on the hook for paying for damages you cause that your insurance doesn't cover. That's money out of your pocket. So, if you hurt someone in an auto accident and their medical bills come up to be more than your Bodily Injury limits, you might have to pay the difference.
Pick Direct Auto & Life Insurance for Bodily Injury Liability in Burlington and you'll get the insurance you need at a price your budget can handle. Drivers should never have to cut back on the protection that helps them feel safe on the road. We help you determine the best policy for your needs and find ALL the discounts you're entitled to. We promise! From there, you can make your car insurance feel even more affordable (and manageable) by customizing the time and way you pay. Whether it's by cash, credit card, or check, staying on top of policy payments and your Bodily Injury Coverage in Burlington is simple with Direct Auto & Life! Stop by your neighborhood location or call 1-877-GO-DIRECT (1-877-463-4732) to learn more about Bodily Injury Liability Insurance coverage!

In the coverage that followed the recent meeting of the Presidential Advisory Commission on Voter Integrity, the media focused on the testimony of John Lott Jr., a gun researcher who argued that the Bureau of Alcohol, Firearms and Tobacco's background check system should be used to check voter eligibility. And while Lott's testimony was worthy of the coverage — if not just for its ridiculousness, but also for its inaccuracy — this focus diverted attention from Kris Kobach's continued underlying goal: to use this commission as a tool to restrict voting across the entire country.
Initially, 21 states plus DC refused to comply with Kobach's request, and others only agreed to provide already-public data. Even Kobach's own state, Kansas, was unable to comply fully with the data request, limited by Kansas state law. Further, a federal judge ruled that the commission did not have the legal authority to compel states to provide voter data. Now, after that federal ruling, eight states are still refusing to comply with the data request at all, 11 states are complying only after certain conditions are met, and 17 states will only provide already-public data (15 states have not yet made a public decision).

Emma earned a J.D. from the Northwestern University School of Law and a B.S. from the University of Minnesota. She currently resides in New York City. Follow her on Twitter: @emmarolson.


Lufthansa Cargo's collection service Mobile Acceptance has been in the test phase at CargoCity South for almost six months now. It's time to take stock.
"We're heading to Kuehne + Nagel now to collect some goods. They'll then go directly to Beijing," explains Creste Bassetti. He works for Cargoworker 24 GmbH, the service provider performing Mobile Acceptance for Lufthansa Cargo. Everything has to be done quickly, as the measuring, weighing and checking are carried out right at the customer warehouse. "We have a fantastic relationship with colleagues at the customer warehouse – everything is closely coordinated," says Bassetti, describing the cooperation with the test customers. If the load has been packaged in compliance with security requirements, it is conveyed by roller bed from the warehouse to the truck – the Speed Gate awaits. Bassetti has already informed Fraport Security Services colleagues of the containers bound for Asia, so it's full steam ahead. The Speed Gate, a gate on the southern edge of the runway, also channels the panels via roller bed towards the apron. The gate closes and the goods can then be loaded onto dollies, which bring the cargo to the aircraft.
Doesn't that all sound simple and fast? It sure does – and it is. After a trip lasting approximately five minutes, the goods arrive on the apron having travelled from the warehouse via the Cargoworker truck and through the Speed Gate. Thanks to Mobile Acceptance, the cargo can be brought directly from CargoCity South out to the aircraft, due to take off 40 minutes later, and no longer has to detour via the Lufthansa Cargo Center in the north. This saves the customer up to six hours of valuable time. Palletising issues can be ironed out right in the customer warehouse. A 99.9 per cent non-offload rate since the start of the test phase is evidence of the efficiency of the new system. By the editorial deadline in early March, more than 3,800 shipments prepared on pallets by the customer for flight with a total weight of more than 8,400 tonnes had been accepted in this way.
How did this idea come about? "There's a veritable who's who of forwarders here in CargoCity South – so we wanted to be very present as well and offer customers a special service," explains Sabine Hehner from Project Gateway Frankfurt. The idea of Mobile Acceptance was born in workshops with various customers and in close cooperation with them. "The test phase has exceeded our expectations and word about the product is getting around the industry," says a pleased Hehner. Customers are also happy: "No project with Lufthansa Cargo has ever worked as well as this one," emphasises Christian R. Rickers, Managing Director of Kuehne + Nagel. The Global Partner is one of the test customers, along with DB Schenker, Nippon Express and UPS. The forwarder knows that his goods will now be at the Speed Gate approximately five minutes after collection.


This is it. This is the one. If you try any of our Bittersweet Blends you must try Bittersweet Zesty Garlic Blend. It goes anywhere you'd like the taste of garlic, like lazy garlic, but because it's a fantastic recipe it is so much more. Make Zesty Garlic butter, oil, mayonnaise (aioli), salad dressing, Zesty Garlic salt or pepper or even Zesty Garlic mustard. Do not put this blend away in the pantry. It deserves a spot on every kitchen bench as it goes in everything.
Start with a couple of teaspoons of the Zesty Garlic as it is quite strong and therefore economical. Amazing things will occur. Your troubles will disappear and you will appear younger. Sorry, wrong script...nothing will happen but rave reviews on tonight's dinner. Hey, isn't that enough?

GZR é uma banda de metal core liderada pelo baixista Terry 'Geezer' Butler (membro original do Black Sabbath). A banda na verdade já se apresentou com três nomes diferentes em seus álbuns comercializados. Em 1995 g//z/r, depois meramente geezer em 1997 e a partir de 2005 GZR. A maioria dos fãs refere-se a banda como "geezer", no entanto Geezer Butler faz referência à pronúncia G-Z-R (gee-zee-ar). Pedro Howse, o guitarrista da banda, também é sobrinho de Butler. Ele já havia participado também do projeto solo do músico Geezer Butler Band (1984-1988). Apesar desta coincidência de membros os dois projetos não têm aparentemente nenhuma ligação.

Stress Free Ways to Sell Your House This Holiday Season!
The holiday season from November through January is often considered the most stressful time to put a home on the market. While the thought of selling your home during this time may dampen your holiday spirit, the season does have its advantages: holiday buyers tend to be more serious and competition is less fierce with fewer homes being actively marketed.
Deck the halls, but don't go overboard.
Anyone house hunting during the holidays must have a good reason for doing so. Work with us to target buyers on a deadline, including people relocating for jobs, investors on tax deadlines, college students and staff, and military personnel.
Maintaining the exterior of your home is very important. Bare trees equal a more exposed home, so touch up the paint, clean the gutters and spruce up the yard.
Give your house a merry feel.
Make your home feel cozy and inviting during showings by playing soft classical music and offering homemade holiday treats. When you encourage buyers to spend more time in your home, you also give them more time to admire its best features.
Relax - the new year is just around the corner.
The holidays are stressful enough with gifts to buy, dinners to prepare and relatives to entertain. Take a moment to remind yourself that the stress will be passing shortly and you'll be basking in the glory of your sold home.
That means someone who will work hard for you and won't disappear during Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year's. This will ease your stress and give you more time to enjoy the season. Shawn and Emma are always here to help with all of your real estate needs. Thinking of listing your home this holiday season? Then give us a call!


"I really believe that none of our success would have been possible without your support and the way your team worked to help make our launch possible".
Stout & Gallant has decades of proven experience in developing creative and dynamic business environments. We provide initial concepts, create and build the physical environment, and develop inspired content for events that break ground, launch products, build business at a trade show, announce annual results, motivate employees, and celebrate milestones.
Working with a company's corporate communications, human resources or executive teams, we help shape and deliver corporate events from concept to completion. We can also provide project consulting for one or several phases throughout the development of an event.


Can I buy straight from your lot, or do I need to place a separate order?
We try to keep a good selection of inventory in stock at each of our authorized dealer locations, ready for sale and delivery. However, if we don't have exactly what you're looking for on site, we can certainly order it for you!
What size/style of shed is right for me?
1. How do you plan to use your building? Will you be using it primarily for parking, item storage, workspace, or other applications?
2. If you'll be using your building for storage, a good rule of thumb is to measure each of the large items you'll be storing (vehicles, lawn mowers, etc.), and then add a few feet to that so you'll have easy access to those items.
Many of our customers tend to come back and say they wish they'd bought a larger shed from us, so we always recommend choosing one size larger than you THINK you'll need.
This also gives you some room to grow!
What will my shed be constructed of? What types of standard building materials do you use?
Pioneer uses only the finest-quality materials in constructing each of our portable buildings, including: 4"×6" notched runners, 2"×6" pressure-treated floor joists, 5/8" LP® ProStruct Flooring (except the Gambrel and Classic, 3/4"), LP® SmartSide or LP® Lap Siding (both resistant to termites and rot), 2"×4" rafters with 7/16" OSB roof sheathing, and your choice of either shingle or metal roofing.
We pride ourselves on our quick delivery turnaround. In-stock inventory sales typically only require 3-5 business days for delivery, while special orders average between 10-20 business days for delivery in most areas. A delivery professional will contact you a few days ahead of time to schedule a date and approximate time for delivery. FREE DELIVERY provided within 50 miles of any of our 12 authorized dealer locations!
You'll get a follow-up phone call from our Customer Care team to go over all the details of your order. We'll make sure we have all the information we need to build your shed the way you want it, and we'll answer any questions you may have. At this time, you will also get an estimate of when to expect your delivery.
What about restrictions or permits?
It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the building is permitted (if needed) in the intended location. We strongly recommend contacting your local ciy and county agencies ahead of time to learn about any zoning, permitting, setbacks, or covenant issues. You should also contact your local homeowners association (if applicable) to learn what neighborhood rules and regulations may apply.
If you need stamped drawings, schematics or additional information, just give us a call, we're here to help! Depending on the specific requirements, additional charges may apply.
Free delivery within 50 miles of sales lot, and normal setup is included in the price. Customer is responsible for all permits and zoning. Pioneer is not responsible for damage to yards, driveways or underground utilities; it is up to the customer to ensure the ground site is suitable and that utilities are located before install.
What is your standard warranty? Or what are the warranties on my new shed?
We will deliver your shed free of defects! We'll provide a 1-year limited warranty covering all materials and parts from the very base of the floor to the last shingle on the roof. In addition, LP® provides a 50-year warranty on the LP® Siding, the Architectural Shingles are covered by a 35-year warranty, the metal roofing is a 40-year premium metal, and our floors have a 10-year water-resistant warranty from LP® Pro Struct Flooring.
Working with someone you can trust is important to Pioneer. We require all of our installers to maintain appropriate liability, vehicle and workman's compensation insurance. In addition, each installer must pass a rigorous background check and complete our training program before becoming certified as a Pioneer Portable Buildings installer.
It is not a common practice to tip installers. We already pay our installers to deliver and install your shed!
I don't need a large barn or building; I just need some space for outdoor storage. What are my options?
Pioneer has a full range of portable building options, including cabins, garages, barns, and utility sheds in a variety of size models. We can help you find the perfect storage solution!
Do you have buildings in stock that are available for immediate delivery?
Absolutely! We try to keep a good selection of inventory in stock at each of our authorized dealer locations, ready for sale and delivery. Contact your nearest dealer to learn about what we have in stock. And if we happen not to have exactly what you're looking for on site, we'll be glad to order it for you!
Do you use high-quality lumber to build your portable storage buildings?
In a word … yes. We source high-quality lumber for each structure, and our wood is kiln-dried to ensure that it remains straight and true. Working with the best materials enables us to create durable designs that can withstand both changing seasons and extreme weather conditions.
What makes Pioneer Portable Buildings different from other portable building brands?
• We control the entire process, all the way from ordering to delivery – no subcontractors!
Do buildings come with electrical outlets and/or lights?
As a rule, no, but this also depends on the type of building you choose. We're always happy to talk with you about customization options!
Does the installer remove and replace obstacles to be able to get the building moved in?
No. Any necessary obstacle removal and replacement is the homeowner's responsibility, and should be planned for ahead of the install.
Can the sheds withstand high winds?
All of our structures at Pioneer Portable Buildings are rated for 120 mph wind speeds. If high winds are a threat in your area, we highly recommend that you secure your building with tie downs and/or anchors.
What is the snow load rating on your sheds?
All of our standard buildings are rated for 30 PSF (pounds per square foot) snow loads.
Would I be able to get shingle, paint or siding samples?
Certainly. If you can't get a good enough idea of how our colors look in our catalog or on the website, give us a call and we'll be glad to mail a specific sample out to you, free of charge.
How will I be notified once my shed is ready for delivery?
Once your shed is built and ready to go, our delivery department we'll give you a call to set up a convenient time for delivery that works both with your schedule and that of the delivery driver. In winter you'll typically receive a call from us approximately 1-4 days after the building is completed, and in summer it may take a few days longer, due to higher demand.
LP SmartSide Trim & Siding is manufactured by LP Outdoor Building Solutions. It is an engineered wood strand technology with advanced durability for longer-lasting beauty. It comes treated with a proprietary SmartGuard process to resist termites and fungal decay. LP SmartSide Trim & Siding holds up in extreme weather including moisture, hail, freeze/thaw cycles, and up to 200-mph wind gusts. This siding is backed by the manufacturer with one of the best warranties in the business — 5 Year 100% labor, as well as a 50-year prorated limited replacement warranty. We use specialized paints and mildew-resistant urethane rustic 'stains' approved for LP siding by Haley Paint that are proven to maintain their appearance for 10 years with proper maintenance.
It is not necessary for you to be present for every phase of the process. We do ask that you are initially available to show our shed installer where you want your building placed, and that you'll be available upon completion to do a walk-through inspection with our installer.
Site preparation is usually pretty simple! We do require the installation area to be cleared and prepared to within 6″ of level (front left, back to front), and we need at least 3′ of clearance around and above the building site (4 feet if your building is larger than 160 sq. ft.). We also ask you place four stakes in the ground where you want the four corners of your building, and a fifth stake where you would like the center of the door opening. We will also need access to electricity within 150 feet of the unit, and unobstructed access to transport your materials to the building site. Other than that, we'll take care of the rest!
Can you help me with my foundation? Does Pioneer Portable building do any of the site prep?
No, we do not do site preparation or foundation work. Your site needs to be prepped before we arrive to install your new shed.
We recommend that you use an exterior porch and floor paint. If you plan on storing powered equipment inside your shed, it's best to use garage floor paint for that purpose.
The installation surface is really up to you; our only requirement is that you have a level location for your building site. Our buildings are designed to rest directly on their skids. In order to level, we use a jack to raise the building until it is level, then we block underneath it with ground contact-rated, treated wood blocks.
If I want a gravel installation surface, how much gravel should I put down?
The most important part of a foundation site for a shed or garage is a perfectly level base; otherwise the shed frame may twist, and opening of doors and windows will be difficult. If you choose to have a gravel installation surface, we recommend you put down several inches of Class 5 (road) gravel or granite fines, and for the base to be compacted.
What if the area where the building is to be placed is 2 feet or more out of level?
If your site is 2 feet or more out of level, we highly recommend buying concrete blocks. We recommend 4-inch thick, solid cap blocks. Thinner blocks tend to crack, and blocks larger than 4 inches cause the building to be higher above the ground and thus more difficult to access. It's best not to place the blocks before the driver delivers the building; just have them placed nearby the installation site.
Do I need to have my building anchored down?
Pioneer does not offer anchoring services, but we do highly recommend that your building be anchored down to reduce the risk of accidents or damage.
A vertical space of 14ft, measured from the ground to the top of the building when it is on the trailer, is required. Be sure to take any tree branches and utility wires into account when planning for your installation site. The driver will still need a minimum of 2ft of space to maneuver the truck laterally. For example, a 12ft-wide building will require a 14ft-wide space for maneuvering. Please take tight turns into account when considering your install location, as well.
It can, but we honestly do not recommend it. If you have the option, we suggest that sheds be built on concrete slabs, augmented by solid cement blocks.
I have an existing concrete slab, can you place my new shed on that?
The vast majority of our buildings are constructed on our wood floor system which is sufficient for most any application, but we do have the ability to construct your Pioneer Portable Building on an existing slab. In order to do this, your slab must be appropriately sized for your building, and it must be level within ½". Because of the individual nature of each slab, it's best to contact us to determine if your slab meets our specifications. Due to the additional installation labor and extra materials needed to properly secure the shed to your slab, there is no reduction in overall price if you choose to install on a slab.
Will my shed come fully assembled?
Absolutely! Your shed will be placed on your installation site fully assembled, leveled by our professional delivery technicians, and ready to use!
What if the entrance to my yard is not wide enough due to trees, fences, or other factors?
We will be happy to build your shed on-site for an additional cost. In this case, please add two weeks to the anticipated delivery time. Note that Pioneer does not take down fences or provide tree removal.
You are responsible to check with your HOA, county, and/or city for any restrictions or regulations, and to obtain any necessary permits. Pioneer does not pull any permits for your shed.
Will you haul away my old shed?
No, Pioneer does not provide pick-up or take-away service for an old shed. If you would like your old shed moved within your yard, though, we can arrange that. Just give us a call to discuss it!
No! The price of accessory installation is included with the cost of the accessory.
Most often, yes! A Pioneer Portable Building is completely customizable. You choose where you want your windows and doors, and as long as your configuration fits with the size of the structure, no problem! You also choose your siding, trim, shutter and shingle colors. Want more options? For an additional cost, you can add another window, upgrade to a house door, add a loft, skylight, workbench, shelves, and much more!
Our standard window size is 2' x 3'. The larger windows come in 2' x 3' double-pane window and 3' x 3' window options.
Are the shutters and flower boxes made out of wood?
They are made out of the same LP® Wood Product material that we use on our sheds, and it comes with protection against fungal decay, termite damage, and weather extremes.
What size is the single wood shed door?
The solid door is 36 inches wide. The 9-lite door is also a 36-inch-wide door.
What size are the double wood shed doors?
The double doors are 70 inches wide, and include a transom window overhead.
What size are the garden shed doors?
The garden shed door is 6 feet wide.
What size are the fiberglass 9-lite doors?
The fiberglass 9-lite doors are 36" wide.
What size are the roll-up doors?
There are two sizes of roll up doors, either 6 feet or 9 feet. You will always receive the largest door that your shed will allow.
If you are going to park a mower, riding toys, motorcycle, or any vehicle inside your shed, then it's a good idea to purchase a ramp for easier access.
I can park my vehicle in a shed!?
Pioneer has several garage and lofted barn garage models that are designed for storing heavier vehicles like cars, ATVs, lawn mowers, etc.
In most cases yes, depending on the size of the unit and the distance required. Please keep in mind that each Pioneer Portable Building is hand-assembled and installed on your lot, and moving the building after installation will void your warranty. That is why we request your presence at the beginning of the installation phase, to ensure you choose the proper location for your building the first (and hopefully last!) time.
I love my Pioneer Portable Building, but now I'm interested in some more customization. What are my options?
We offer a wide array of options and accessories, and we can help you to customize your building to meet your specific needs. When placing your order with one of our sales associates, please be sure to communicate your needs and intended use, and we can ensure that you get the appropriate accessories. If for some reason you feel that an additional accessory or option is needed at a later date, just give us a call and we'll be glad to quote you an installed price. Remember though, it's always more cost-effective to order all the options you think you may ever need when making your initial purchase!
Sorry, we do not offer any removal services. We can arrange to move your old shed elsewhere in your yard though, just reach out to us about that ahead of time. If you need to have your old shed removed, try looking for a shed hauler or barn mover in your area. Any large truck with a flat bed also tends to work pretty well in many cases.
The website says free delivery, so why was I charged for delivery?
Pioneer is happy to provide FREE building delivery and setup within 50 miles of the dealer nearest you, in order to help make your buying experience as painless as possible! If you happen to live more than 50 miles from a dealer location, there is an additional charge for delivery service.
Rent-To-Own (RTO) is a simple, affordable program designed to allow you to start enjoying your dream portable building NOW and just pay as you go, month-to-month! There is NO credit check required with our RTO program! Choose from our 36-month, 48-month, or 60-month programs. Should life throw you a curve ball, or you simply don't need your building anymore, simply call us and we'll retrieve the building at no further cost or obligation!
What forms of payment does Pioneer accept?
We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, and personal checks.
Yes they are! We have 36-month, 48-month, and 60-month RTO options for all of our Pioneer Portable Buildings. The initial payment amount due will be calculated based upon the length and style of your chosen building. Just reach out to us for more details!
Are the initial RTO rent payments applied towards the first 2 or the last 2 rent payments?
The initial payments are applied to the last 2 rent payments. In the case of a 36-month contract, your initial 2 payments are applied to the 35th and 36th payment of the contract.
Are there prepayment penalties for paying the RTO contract off early?
NO, there aren't any prepayment penalties! You are free to pay off the balance at any time once your initial 2 rent payments have been made. You are only charged the "Lease Fee" for the months or any partial month prior to paying the balance (termination) of your contract.
Do we get the RTO security deposit back?
The security deposit will be returned to the lessor after successful final termination of the agreement has been met, barring any fees that may need to be addressed.

Came across a set of Mugen lugs. They are the "new" heptagon style. Was reading somewhere that these can be only used Mugen wheels? Can I use them for other AF wheels?
mugen lug nuts should be able to work with aftermarket wheels. The lugs nuts have a tapered seat.
In contrast, OEM wheels require a rounded seat lug nut, and for that reason aftermarket and/or mugen nuts aren't recommend.

A: The code that displays the close reason on the main question/show page made some bad assumptions about old data*.
I've changed it so that it should always match what's on the revisions page, fixing this bug.
Thanks for finding it!

Q: The values of a 2D matrix is not assigning right I'm a newbie to programming and I'm trying to code to obtain the following pattern
If n=3
3 3 3
3 1 3
3 2 3
3 3 3

If n=4
4 4 4 4 4
4 4 1 4 4
4 4 2 4 4
4 4 3 4 4
4 4 4 4 4

And if n=5
5 5 5 5 5
5 5 1 5 5
5 5 2 5 5
5 5 3 5 5
5 5 4 5 5
5 5 5 5 5

and so on.
My code for the above pattern is below
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {

  int n, row, col, mid, i, j, mat[50][50], midValue = 1;
  printf("Enter the value of N\n");
  scanf("%d",&n );
  if(n % 2 == 0) {

    row = col = n + 1;

  }
  else{

    col = n;
    row = n + 1;

  }
  mid = col / 2;
  printf("%d\n",mid );
  for(i = 0; i < row; i++) {

    for(j = 0; j < col; j++) {

      if(j == mid && i != 0) {

          mat[row][col] = midValue;
          midValue++;

      }
      else {

        mat[row][col] = n;

      }

    }

  }

  for(i = 0; i < row; i++) {

    for(j = 0; j < col; j++) {

      printf("%d\t",mat[row][col]);

    }
    printf("\n");

  }
  return 0;

}

But, all my matrix elements are just set to the value of N. I couldn't figure where I've gone wrong. Can anyone point out the mistake?

A: You are setting and printing the only element of the matrix - mat[row][col].
Neither i nor j is being used to set the values and print the values.
You need to change:
        mat[row][col] = midValue;

to
        mat[i][j] = midValue;

and
        mat[row][col] = n;

to
        mat[i][j] = n;

and
     printf("%d\t",mat[row][col]);

to
     printf("%d\t",mat[i][j]);

Pajamas Hostel is one of the new breed of 'flashpacker' hostels that have been growing in popularity in Bangkok and have now spread into other areas of Thailand.
Today's backpackers often want a clean, air-conditioned room that provides safety but with the friendliness and conviviality of old style backpacker hangouts. Pajamas Hostel does all this very well indeed. It's owned and run by a young Thai couple who have spent a lot of time and effort in building a small resort that ticks all the boxes.
The only negative, for some travellers is that it isn't a rock bottom, dirt cheap place to stay. If you are on a tight budget then you'll have to head down the beach to the far more basic Tiger Huts or KP Huts where a basic hut will be much cheaper than a Dorm room at Pajamas.
For travellers with a larger budget, the hostels private rooms offer 3 star comforts but in a very laid back style. Everything is clean, crisp and well-thought out, from the design of the rooms to the amenities in the bathrooms.
The beach is accessed by a 100 metre long public walkway that runs along the side of the hostel. The stretch of beach is far longer and quieter, than Lonely beach, which was for so often the usual hangout for younger visitors to the island.
I've been to various places in this country but it was my first time in Koh Chang December of last year. There were plenty of hotels found in Koh Chang but it was Pajamas Hostel that really caught my attention. I have never stayed in a hostel before in this country. So, I was pretty curious about what it was like to be staying in such type of accommodation.
After my short trip to Erawan Falls, I went back to Bangkok before heading to Koh Chang and meet my friends there. During our arrival, the staff greeted us with welcoming smile, although no one picked us up from the airport.
The building is fabulous, and, as I mentioned earlier, we got a lovely welcome. The exterior was modern and very sleek. We checked in at around 4 pm (if I remember it correctly) and on a weekend. That said, we expected it to be very busy but it did give us a great vibe.
We had a quick check-in. One of the staff escorted us to the desk and to our room. We did get an upgrade, from a dorm room to a double deluxe, with little extra charge. The reason we booked for a dorm was that we thought we would be short on budget. Then again, something came up allowing us to stretch our budget to obtain a double deluxe.
One of their double deluxe rooms was all ours. Win!
We felt genuinely welcomed by the Pajamas staff. They were very attentive and let us feel relaxed, considering it was our first time here. All in all, the people who were managing the hostel had a great vibe. When you needed them, they were there to assist you.
We planned to stay here for two nights. But we extended it to five nights because of the atmosphere that we received.
It was a massive room with great looking surroundings. The outside views were impressive too. As part of their welcome amenity, they gave us a basket of fresh fruits and some macaroons. Unfortunately, they didn't last very long as we couldn't stop eating them while we were unpacking.
In our room, we had a cabinet where proper hangers were found. We had no problem storing our clothes here. The staff also provided us with bathrobes and slippers, in addition to the basic toiletries. I love the smell of their shampoo and soap. I think they were made of aloe and some sweet smelling essential oils.
The bathroom's décor was impressive, too. It matched the rest of the resort's high standards. It was definitely a fabulous bathroom with shower and hot/cold facilities. Instead of just giving us four towels, the staff provided us with extra four. They said that we might need them when going to the beach. And they were right. The toiletries they provided were their own brand and they all smelled really nice.
They also provided us with mosquito net that we didn't use. I'm not sure if there were mosquitoes around as we weren't bitten during our stay inside the room.
The restaurant served buffet but you could also order their individual meals. I love their omelet for breakfast. It was a complimentary breakfast. And each of their meals has reasonable rate. If you go to a la carte, you could individually order and it is priced individually.
The only problem we had at this restaurant was that it took them a while before our breakfast was served. It was an issue because we really didn't want to spend an hour or so in this restaurant. I mean, it was a lovely place but also wanted to explore the area within a limited amount of time.
The restaurant had its own bar, which served great cocktails. I think we've tried all of their cocktails and they were truly excellent and heavenly. But this wouldn't be the sole reasons we would come back here, again and again.
I think that Pajamas is definitely a highly-recommended hostel. We met lots of fun people. Had a couple of great nights out and I hope they open more elsewhere in Thailand.


If you want to check if you have any penalty points, you need to bring valid proof of identity and visit a police station during opening hours.
The Norwegian Public Roads Administration can provide you with general information about the penalty points scheme, but will not be able to inform you whether or not you have any penalty points.
What may give you penalty points?
For drivers in their trial period for a Category B licence, penalty points will be doubled for each offence committed during the trial period.
If you are stopped for several offences at the same time, the penalty points for each offence will be added up and you receive the sum total.
How do you get penalty points?
The police stop you for an offence that carries penalty points, or you are registered by speed cameras (automatic speed enforcement). You accept an on-the-spot fine or an ordinary fine, or you take the case to court (the District Court). The penalty points will thus result from a final court decision (i.e. a final and enforceable judgment), an accepted on-the-spot fine, or an accepted ordinary fine. You do not have the right to appeal against the registration of penalty points.
When are penalty points removed from your driving record?
Penalty points are deleted three years after the date on which you signed the fine, or three years after the final court decision.
When you regain your driving entitlements, the penalty points that led to the loss of driving entitlements will be deleted.
The penalty point scheme was introduced on 1 January 2004. The aim of the penalty points scheme is to ensure that drivers comply with the traffic rules and show consideration for other road users. The scheme is intended to promote increased safety and to reduce the number of people who are killed or injured on Norwegian roads.


The franchised private health club operator has opened its first UK club featuring an updated interior design.
Anytime Fitness Croxley Park, a two-floor 7,000 sq ft club in Hertfordshire, has adopted the new open plan layout.
The design will see clubs split into various training zones and is in response to the growing popularity of functional training, a type of exercise that increases flexibility, coordination, balance and posture using a range of equipment associated with daily activities.
Stuart Broster, Anytime Fitness UK CEO, says: "The needs of fitness consumers continue to evolve and the new layout will allow current and prospective franchisees to provide members with highly equipped, modern training facilities.
While Anytime Fitness clubs are encouraged to create their own bespoke layout to suit the property and its audience, franchisees are provided with several 'Brandatories' - mandatory brand standards that ensure consistency across Anytime Fitness' global portfolio.
These are compulsory elements that clubs must incorporate in their fit-out, including the use of certain materials, colours, graphics and feature elements.
The new design layout is part of a wider UK rebrand for Anytime Fitness, which has switched its market positioning from convenience to coaching.

Link Lewis drops a lovely R&B tune, entitled, "Foundation"
October 19, 2018 0 1 min read
Link Lewis is an R&B/Soul singer-songwriter out of Wakefield, England. Not too long ago, he released a lovely contemporary R&B tune, entitled, "Foundation".
Link Lewis – "Foundation"
"Even on your darkness day, I will never walk out the door. No matter what anyone says, I'll be here forever more. I'm the only one who understands you, babe, how you've done no wrong. The pain you're enduring now will fade it won't be long." – lyrics
'Foundation' tells a lovely tale of a supportive guy who cares for his girlfriend while she endures some type of suffering. Also, he's there throughout her turmoil as support for her to lean on.
'Foundation' contains a romantic narrative, soul vocals, and a charismatic instrumentation perfumed with the sweet aroma of endearing love.
"'Foundation' introduces my sound well. I don't want to be defined by one genre. I love the fatness and rawness of hip-hop beats, the melody, and harmonies of R&B, and the tones and grooves of Jazz music. You can expect to hear all of this in my music. Lyrically, this track is pretty classic and relatable. The scenario of a man being there for a woman during difficult times and allowing someone to be that stability and structure in your life." – Link Lewis speaks about his debut single
Link Lewis' sound blends the buttery tones of jazzy R&B with the slick hooks and pounding grooves of hip-hop and modern pop. He has a wealth of experience in writing and producing music of various genres.
We recommend adding Link Lewis' "Foundation" single to your personal playlist.

ICRC: COVID-19: Middle East faces health crisis, socio-economic earthquake
COVID-19 :: Middle East
16-04-2020 | Statement
"The Middle East is today facing the twin threats of potential mass virus outbreaks in conflict zones and looming socio-economic upheaval. Both crises could have severe humanitarian consequences.
The COVID-19 pandemic threatens to be a global socio-economic earthquake. It will be felt acutely in the region's conflict zones, where millions are already coping with little or no healthcare, food, water and electricity, lost livelihoods, rising prices and destroyed infrastructure.
Deep humanitarian needs will worsen and new ones will emerge if the international community doesn't factor socio-economic aftershocks into our response. Authorities and local responders must be supported now to ensure people's lives, livelihoods and food security are protected later.
Much-needed public health measures like lockdowns and curfews already make it difficult or impossible for many people to provide for themselves and their families. Small shops are shuttered. Cafes sit empty. Street vendors have lost their passing trade. The switch to online working could see many left behind. Over time, levels of hunger, malnutrition and chronic illness and stress linked to economic problems could soar.
Across the Middle East, many people are already living a hand-to-mouth existence, struggling to survive and rebuild their lives against vast odds. In Syria, seeing children the same age as my own playing in camps is a humbling experience. They are some of the millions of people we help access clean water every day. In Iraq, mothers and widows told me what our support for their small businesses meant to their families. Such support will be more important than ever in the coming months as we face this pandemic together.
With our Red Cross Red Crescent partners, we are doing our best to help the region's most vulnerable people and bolster efforts to prevent the spread of the virus. In Yemen, our life-saving support to hospitals, clinics and dialysis centers now includes help with their COVID-19 prevention preparations. In Syria and Iraq, we are helping prisons with their anti-infection measures. Water trucking support to camps, displacement shelters and places of detention ensures people have clean water to wash in. Hygiene kits for displaced people and detainees include soap and shampoo.
More broadly, our water and sanitation services, energy provision, food and household distributions and micro-economic initiatives need to continue and increase where possible, reinforcing support to fragile systems and serving basic needs that may be overshadowed in the pandemic. Right now in Yemen, we have teams out on field trips registering people who need aid. Across the region, we want to increase our support in coming months, especially to people who may be particularly affected like low-income workers, women heading households, farmers and people with disabilities.
We've changed the way we work to keep staff and the people we help safe, using physical distancing during distributions, wearing protective equipment and changing how certain aid and cash transfers are delivered, for example. We will continue to adapt and to innovate. We will increase our assistance to the people who need it most, working with our Red Cross Red Crescent partners and the tens of thousands of volunteers who go out every day to help their communities across the Middle East, through the pandemic and beyond it."
Examples of ICRC's COVID-19 response in the Middle East
Syria: Donating hygiene kits for detainees, as well as preventative equipment and materials like disinfectant, gloves, goggles and gowns to central prisons under the Ministry of Interior; preventative measures in the ICRC-Syrian Arab Red Crescent field hospital in Al Hol camp; hygiene kits to reach 750,000 internally displaced people over next three months.
Iraq: Donating protective equipment and materials like disinfectant, gloves, goggles, gowns to health facilities and places of detention across the country. To date, donated to 18 primary health care centres, two hospitals and 15 physical rehabilitation centres, as well as 27 places of detention housing more than 45,000 detainees.
Yemen: Training, preventive information and material distributed to supported hospitals, primary health care centres and dialysis centers, alongside ongoing support to these facilities; public information campaign including audio spots on COVID prevention measures.
Gaza: Donated 20,000 masks and other protective materials to Palestinian Red Crescent Society; supporting authorities' quarantine efforts with donations of blankets, mattresses and hygiene kits. Supplying infrared thermometers to screen suspected cases and other medical equipment.
Lebanon: Supporting the main COVID-19 testing and treatment facility in country, Rafic Hariri University Hospital, to boost response and bed capacity; working with detaining authorities in Roumieh prison to upgrade facilities and set up isolation block for suspected and confirmed cases.
Jordan: Provided hygiene and protective equipment for places of detention and correctional facilities; cash transfer programmes for Syrian refugees continues with preventative measures.
Iran: The ICRC has donated CHF 500,000 to the Iranian Red Crescent Society, which is leading the response to and providing services in several areas including disinfection of prisons, screening and treatment of patients, public information campaigns and livelihood support to affected vulnerable people.
Existing Humanitarian needs and ICRC response in Middle East
:: Half of all medical facilities in Syria and Yemen are not functioning.
:: Three of ICRC's five biggest humanitarian operations in 2019 were in Middle East – Syria, Yemen and Iraq
:: In these three countries alone, almost 40 million people need humanitarian aid
:: ICRC provides water and sanitation support to authorities across the region – Syria, Yemen, Iraq, Jordan, Gaza and the West Bank and Lebanon
:: ICRC's provided food assistance to two million people in the Middle East in 2019.
