Clico turns 11…still a shining star!
With an abundance of restaurants to choose from, this is one we would select over and over again. The Clico Boutique Hotel and Restaurant are truly special… where food, drink and design blend effortlessly.
The location celebrates the Rosebank district and is comfortably nestled on the corner of Sturdee Avenue. The Clico restaurant opened in October 2015, and offers delicate European-style savoury recipes. The best news? The tasting menu changes monthly, and the a-la-carte menu changes biannually – so there's always innovation and always something state-of-the-art to try.
The setting is intimate and cosy, with a beautiful fresh design element and a crisp aesthetic. We especially love the private champagne room, which seats up to ten people. It's the perfect starry-eyed hub for you and your besties to enjoy over the festive season, or for any celebration really.
The six-course wine-pairing menu, which we relished in, captures the essence of seasonal flavours, using their natural essence and are sourced locally. The food is prepared precisely and served gracefully. Each course is impeccably balanced, with a well-imagined wine pairing thanks to chef Marnus Scholly.
Marnus is a graduate of The Chef School for Food and Wine, where he completed a diploma in Food Preparation and Culinary arts.
Expect specialized vintages such as Eagles Nest Merlot, Rijks Chenin Blanc and Morgenster Cab Franc, paired with delectable soups, butternut raviloli, decadent risottos, lamb shoulder and impala rump. Champagne in one hand and cuisine that highlights seasonable ingredients in the other… it's a match made in culinary heaven!

Paul's Three White Deaf Cats
Paul had always loved cats. All his life, he had a cat in the family. He found himself drawn to them, enthralled by their ability to make you earn their trust.
Paul's first cat was a rescue. When he was 13, his family took on a sick abandoned cat, who went on to become a much-loved member of the family for 24 years. To Paul, that cat was his best friend. So when he moved out of home, he needed a cat. His first came from a pet store after he saw the black beauty looking alone and unhappy in her enclosure. She went home with Paul, and a few months later, he was back for a second – the runt of the litter who hid in the back of the enclosure, trampled by her siblings.
16 years later, Paul had to say goodbye to his special runt. Having had surgery a week earlier, he was in a bad place and felt incomplete with only one cat. His black beauty was also on the sad side, missing her sibling.
A few months later in June 2019, Paul's parents, who had been without a cat for a few years, were feeling it was time to get a new pet. Paul suggested looking at Sydney Dogs & Cats Home, as we'd recently helped reunite his daughter with her lost dog. His parents looked at our website and noticed Basil the cat, who they adopted that day.
Paul went with his mum to collect Basil. He always felt a need to take less-loved and under-appreciated animals under his wing, so seeing all the beautiful animals needing a home broke his heart. He asked if he could stay in the cattery and show the cats some love, where he noticed a gorgeous white cat watching his every move.
When Paul took his mother and her new cat home, he couldn't keep the white cat out of his head, convinced he needed a second cat in his life. Paul's mother asked what was wrong, and when he explained, his mother laughed. "Go get him," she said.
Half an hour later, Paul was back at Sydney Dogs & Cats Home learning more about the curious white cat. The staff surprised him when they said he was deaf. But that didn't matter. Paul took Hunter the cat home and he and his two children were blessed again with two cats. Hunter adjusted quickly to adopted life and soon became a valued member of the family.
Some months later, Paul's black beauty reached 18 years and her health declined, so the family had to say goodbye. Though Hunter had only known his adopted sibling for a few months, Paul noticed he felt the loss.
But with time, Hunter recovered and his true colours began to shine. He was cheeky, full or life and very affectionate, when he felt like it.
Shortly after he'd lost his black beauty, Paul received an unexpected phone call from Sydney Dogs & Cats Home. We had a gorgeous white female cat ready to be adopted into an indoor home. This cat was something special – just like Hunter, she was deaf.
Paul grabbed the kids and whisked into the shelter. Before they knew it, they had a second white deaf cat. Already having Hunter, the family decided on the name Holly, and so the joke became that Paul had Holly Hunter at home.
Hunter was happy to have a friend again. Him and Holly were a great pair and very quickly made Paul's life feel full again.
Having rescued two amazing cats from Sydney Dogs & Cats Home, Paul volunteered his IT services to help the Home and our furry residents. In October 2019, the internet went out for a few days, so he took a backup service to keep us up and running.
The internet was fixed and for a while, Paul forgot to pick up his loan equipment. So we gave him a call with an incentive. "It will be worth your while," we said.
So Paul came into the Home, expecting to be rewarded with some playtime in the cattery. Instead, he was shown a dazzling white deaf cat named Nimbus with striking blue eyes. So as tradition told, cat number three was welcomed into Paul's family.
Nimbus ruined the Holly Hunter joke, so the family made clever use of alliteration to rename the new addition. So Nimbus became Hettie, and she settled in well with her new siblings.
While Paul notes that the cats' inability to react to sound is challenging, they know hand gestures and body language, and each has their own quirky thing they respond to.
Paul said his experience with Holly, Hunter and Hettie has made his family appreciate the importance of adopting pets who need a loving home.
"Even my children who are 14 and 8 understand that #AdoptDontShop is the right thing to do as it means that an animal who has lost all hope is given a chance again at being a loved family member," he said.
"I cannot recommend Sydney Dog & Cats home enough to everyone I know, and I encourage everyone to Adopt Not Shop with them.
If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have my three fur babies who mean the world to me and have made not only our lives – but our home – complete."

Kunal Singh (29 September 1976 – 7 February 2008), known professionally as Kunal, was an Indian actor who mainly appeared in Tamil films. He is best known for his romantic role in Kathir's Kadhalar Dhinam (1999), which is Kunal's debut super-hit film.

Career
Kunal was born on 1976 in Haryana, India. He was introduced in Kathir's 1999 romantic Tamil film Kadhalar Dhinam, alongside Sonali Bendre, a popular Bollywood actress that time. He played a young student who falls in love with Bendre's character over the internet. After the relative success of Kadhalar Dhinam, Kunal appeared in a series of Tamil films like Paarvai Ondre Pothume (2001) and Punnagai Desam (2002). Those films were relatively successful.

Then, he appeared in many flops like Pesadha Kannum Pesume, Enge Enadhu Kavithai and Unarchigal. Several of his later films were started and then shelved, like Nava's Nilavinilae opposite Vijayalakshmi, Kimu Kipi opposite Susan, and Rithik's Kadhalithal Anandam, which would have featured him alongside Livingston and Kausalya. Moreover, two films which he had signed opposite actress Sherin Shringar, Jai Adithya's Kadhal Thiruda and Nanda's Thodu, were shot and unreleased.

When he was unable to find roles as an actor, he served as assistant editor for several films and turned to producing. His last film release in Tamil was Nanbanin Kadhali, which released in 2007.

Death
On 7 February 2008, Kunal was found hanging from the ceiling in his Mumbai apartment by actress Lavina Bhatia. The apparent suicide was challenged by his father Rajendra Singh who claimed that the body showed signs of suspicious bruising. Bhatia was detained by police in connection with his death, but she was later released after the police could not prove a motive. The police were unable to prove that anyone was present in Kunal's apartment at the time of his death and ruled out Bhatia as a suspect; furthermore, Kunal had attempted suicide by slashing his wrists several months earlier. At the time of his death, Kunal was working on a Hindi film, Yogi, which was being produced by his newly formed production company Balagiri. The case was referred to CBI and Prof T D Dogra of All India Institute of Medical Sciences. He examined the scene of crime along with CBI and opined in favor of suicide.

Filmography

All films are in Tamil, unless otherwise noted.

Enjoy the app to stay current but when you try to search it's not efficient! I also wish there was some type of description for the tickets section like what's potentially being taped at that time. If you use the giveaways tab the form freezes and does not immediately open when trying to complete the birth date section. Happens every day and is always a delay or you have to tap multiple times to get it open. Please fix the problem on the giveaways section!!
For the most part I love the app however Ellen will mention on her show to go to the app to look at something and then when you try to find it it's nearly impossible. The search functionality doesn't search for exact phrase even when you put quotes around it. Such as "Justin Timberlake." I wish that could be fixed because I would love to view the items that she mentions on her show.
One star only because of the reviews.
Why is almost every review about how they love Ellen and not the app? Seriously? I came across the app and decided to check it out and I always check the reviews. Everyone talks about how they love her show. I do too but I downloaded the app just so I could write this review. Seriously people when you write a review please make it be about the app. So now I'll delete the app since admin at warner brothers can't keep track of this sort of stuff... unless they are and just want the five stars. Now it's time to delete this app. BTW I do love the Ellen Show.

We have run into a high priority issue on our store.
There are several products we are offering that are digital downloads, which should NOT be charged a shipping cost. However, we've had some orders come through, and those downloadable products are being charged for shipping regardless of the fact its a downloadable item.
I cannot find any setting or easy way to disable this on a per-product basis, Nor can I find a setting store-wide to fix this either.
I would greatly appreciate expedient assistance with this issue.
Can you check and see that no shipping charges are added to individual products?
You're saying it's happening on some digital products but not on all? Is there anything different about the way these products are setup in the admin?
I tried a sample ebook purchase and was directed to a shipping info page (which normally asks only for email address.
I definitely haven't seen this happen before. Check through the product settings again. If you don't see anything I may need a set of guest credentials to login and take a look myself.
It's happening on all digital products.
Nothing different about their setup (that I can see) aside from the fact that they have a file attached. No addl. shipping per product is added to those digital downloads to cause this either.
So yea, not really sure what exactly is going on to make it act so funky.
Is this a particular subsite on a multisite? Can I get a link to it? I'm gonna ping one of the developers on this one. If we can get a link to see what's going on that'd be fantastic.
Our intended price for this ebook is 10 dollars.
@MyMiddleEarth, Looking at your site I can confirm that at least for the eBook product it does seem to be adding the Shipping.
Sit tight for a few. Off the top of my head I don't have an answer on the settings issue. Investigating. Also, assumed you are running the latest and greatest version of MarketPress and all other plugins as well as WordPress.
Hope to have an answer for you shortly.
Thanks for the quick responses Paul!
Just an update for the thread. There is a known issue/conflict. The part of the logic which checked the cart for downloadable content as it applied to shipping does not currently support the global cart option being turned on.
Just wanted to state here my appreciation to PaulM for taking the time to work with me today in addressing these issues.
Very much appreciate the time and personal attention.

Powerful governments and armed groups are deliberately fomenting fear to erode human rights and to create an increasingly polarized and dangerous world, said the organisation.

C Spire Wireless Waives Activation, Monthly Fees For Priority Service That Aids Critical Communications For Emergency Responders
Provider move encourages police, fire and other designated emergency response agencies to use Wireless Priority Service for essential mobile communications during time of crisis or natural disaster
Ridgeland, Miss. (April 25, 2012) – C Spire Wireless today announced that it will waive the one-time activation charge and monthly service fee for Wireless Priority Service (WPS), which gives eligible emergency response agencies and personnel a higher priority connection to the nation's only personalized network during a crisis or natural disaster.
WPS gives emergency service personnel, including federal, state and local government officials, police, fire and other designated public health and safety first responders, a higher-priority connection to C Spire's network during natural disasters, terrorist attacks and major accidents by dialing *272 before the destination phone number on pre-authorized mobile phones.
While priority calls do not preempt calls in progress, WPS allows authorized users to gain priority access to the next available wireless channel on the C Spire network, thereby increasing the probability of call completion during emergencies and times of crisis, said Terrell Knight, director of business and government sales for C Spire Wireless.
"In an emergency situation, essential communications are critical for public safety and emergency responders need to get through as fast as possible," Knight said, noting that hurricanes, widespread flooding and tornadoes have caused billions of dollars in damage, injuries and deaths in recent years in the Southeast.
With the severe weather season already underway and the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season just around the corner, the potential rises dramatically for catastrophic weather-caused events causing congestion for wireless emergency communications, Knight said. "We want to support emergency responders by making this important resource available and affordable for cities, counties, states and federal agencies responsible for protecting the public during times of crisis or natural disaster," he added.
WPS requires a one-time activation fee of up to $10 per line and each call has a per minute charge of up to 75 cents a minute, but C Spire is waiving both the activation fee and the monthly service fee of up to $4.50 for all designated and approved emergency responders, Knight said.
Once WPS is activated, registered users simply dial *272 before dialing the 10-digit phone number and the call will be automatically placed in high-priority status for the next available wireless channel.
WPS was developed for wireless communications in 2001 by the Federal Communications Commission and is a companion service to the Government Emergency Telecommunications Service (GETS) for priority landline communications. Both programs are managed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and are part of the National Communications System created by President John F. Kennedy in 1963 in the aftermath of the Cuban Missile crisis.
For more information about WPS, users also may contact their C Spire Wireless account executive and Assist for Business Support Center at 1.855.277.4732.

Pools' Preview
Hartlepool United Away
Newport County AFC make the 570 mile round trip to Hartlepool United this weekend as they are back in Sky Bet League 2 action after recent postponements.
Manager Justin Edinburgh will have 22 players to choose from for the journey to the North East of England in a season where filling the 7 spaces allowed on the substitute bench has been a rarity! Despite this encouraging news there are still key personnel that have arrived on the treatment table since the 0-0 draw at Southend United on 31st January.
Both goalkeepers are unavailable for selection as Lenny Pidgeley injured his ankle during the Southend game and Jamie Stephens has a knee injury sustained in training last Friday. Edinburgh moved swiftly to sign Conor Thompson who was previously with Torquay United, and Elliott Parish on an emergency loan from Bristol City.
In addition to new keepers, County also signed Aaron Holloway on a non-contract basis after the young Welsh striker was released by Bristol City in January. Holloway, who has represented Wales at U19 and U17 level impressed in training recently and is in contention for Saturday's game.
Chris Zebroski will also make the trip to Hartlepool after come through training this week for the first time since his injury at Braintree Town in the FA Cup on November 9th. With Byron Anthony and Max Porter available, only Ismail Yakubu misses out on travelling as a pre-cautionary measure after taking a knock to the top of his foot in training. Yakubu should be available by next week. It will also be great to see Aaron O'Connor on the coach with the rest of the squad as he continues his rehabilitation and is closing in on full training with the lads.
'The players have been superb and are looking forward to getting back into a routine of playing games starting at Hartlepool. Their attitude has been first class. It is pleasing to get Elliott and Conor in so quickly. Holloway has done ever so well in training and a couple of friendly games and it is another boost for us to have secured his services.'
'We had a lot of set-backs last season and came through them. I am sure we will do so again.'
'I watched Hartlepool last Saturday at Dagenham, it will be a tough encounter but we are desperate to play. The strength in depth now means that people have to step up to the plate as we now have real competition with a near full strength squad to choose from.'
Hartlepool United won their last game 2-0 at Dagenham & Redbridge whilst their last home game against Scunthorpe United finished goal-less. Manager Colin Cooper is sweating on the fitness of Captain Neil Austin who injured his toe in the 2-0 win last week and whether or not defender Mike Duckworth can return to the side after a recent double hernia operation.

AK: Alaska trapshooter Corey Cogdell-Unrein is back on the range, with a baby
Submitted by: Corey Salo
Lane Carter Unrein is 10 weeks old and he really is a good little boy.
He was born 24 days before his due date, thereby allowing his mother to go back to work in time to begin her quest for a fourth straight Summer Olympics appearance.
Corey Cogdell-Unrein, Alaska�s two-time Olympic bronze medalist in trapshooting, captured fifth place at the USA Shooting national championships last week in Colorado, a little more than two months after giving birth to Lane, her first child.
She was the top shooter in qualifying competition, firing 238 out of a possible 250 to finish two points ahead of anyone else � an effort that included two consecutive perfect rounds, meaning she hit 50 targets in a row without a miss.
'Gun free zone' law disarmed Virginia Beach shooting victim, attorney says
Submitted by: jac

The night before Kate Nixon and 11 others were murdered by a disgruntled co-worker, the decade-long Virginia Beach city employee talked with her husband about bringing a gun to work for self-defense -- a decision that was taken out of her hands by the city's ban on employees carrying firearms at work, a Nixon family lawyer said.
�Kate expressed to her husband concerns about this individual in particular, as well as one other person,� Nixon family attorney Kevin Martingayle told WHRV..... �In fact, they had a discussion the night before about whether or not she should take a pistol and hide it in her handbag -- and decided not to, ultimately, because there's a policy apparently against having any kind of weapons that are concealed ..."

NJ: Assembly Committee Passes Gun Control Package
Yesterday, the Assembly Judiciary Committee passed a package of anti-gun bills heavily opposed by NRA and ANJRPC. Those measures now head to the Assembly floor where they await further consideration. Despite passing yesterday, this package of bills has a long way to go through the legislative process. The Senate hasn�t even begun to act on them, so it�s critical that gun owners make their voices heard early and often.

Smart guns, also known as �personalized guns,� use technology like fingerprint readers or radio frequency identification (RFID) to let only authorized users unlock the gun and fire it.
New research shows many gun owners aren�t interested in purchasing them.
The Second Amendment is Still Timeless
A study published by the CDC found that firearms are used in at least as many defensive uses as criminal uses. In 2008, about 300,000 people committed crimes with firearms and anywhere from 500,000- 3,000,000 people used firearms defensively. This means firearms do at least as much good as harm in the United States, but likely much more good.
IL: ISRA commends gun owners for fighting for their Second Amendment rights at Deerfield Town Hall
Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA) leaders recently saluted members for turning out en masse for an End-of-Session Town Hall meeting in Deerfield hosted by anti-gun rights state Sen. Julie Morrison (D-Deerfield).
�Thank you for being there to defend your rights, to defend the Second Amendment,� the organization said in a bulletin posted on the group�s website. �The fight for your rights is not over, but you are part of the winning team.�
FL: Florida Ballot Initiative Seeks to Ban �Assault Weapons�
Anti-Second Amendment activists in Florida are working to have a state Constitutional Amendment placed on the ballot for 2020. The Amendment would ban future sales of almost all semi-automatic rifles, some semi-automatic shotguns, and require registration of those currently owned.
The problem with having people who are proudly ignorant about firearms technology draft a referendum, is they know just enough to create supremely stupid and ineffective laws.
VA: ICYMI: Here Are The Virginia Democrats' Anti-Gun Proposals
On May 31, DeWayne Craddock shot and killed 12 people at Virginia Beach. Armed with two handguns, he went on a rampage after recently resigning from his position in city government. So far, we know he was not fired or forced out. He was reportedly not a pleasure to be around and was written up for workplace issues by one of his victims, Kate Nixon, who worked as a supervisor. Nixon, who is survived by her husband Jason and her three daughters, said there was another man who gave her even a worse vibe, prompting her husband to suggest she conceal carry her firearm at work. She refused, not wanting to violate the gun-free policy the city had with government workers.
NH: House Concurs On Anti-Gun Bills
On June 13th, the New Hampshire state House of Representatives voted to concur on two anti-gun bills that they had received back from the Senate. House Bills 109 and 514 will now go to Governor Chris Sununu�s desk, where his office has indicated that he is not looking to make any changes to existing firearm laws.
UT: Why more Utah teachers are considering carrying guns in the classroom
After a childhood spent surrounded by gun violence in South Africa, Erin Thomas is, as she puts it, "anti-gun in a lot of ways."
It�s a description seemingly at odds with Thomas� newly-acquired permit to carry a concealed firearm.
But with what can feel like an endless cycle of school shootings in the news, Thomas, an assistant principal at two elementary schools in the Alpine School District, has been increasingly forced to consider a frightening question for educators: What would I do if it were my school?
Like good scouts, we should 'be prepared'
"The right to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed" is for the very purpose of defending against evil. A look at America�s most essential cities, their strict guns laws and gun violence there is all we need to understand why strict gun laws do not work.
VA: A little more thought on the 2nd Amendment
Fundamental human rights are not created and granted by governments. They are inherent and adhere to all of us as individuals. As was made clear in the Declaration of Independence, the proper function of government is to protect human rights: �� they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men.��
Rights, as such, can neither be granted nor taken away. They can only be protected or be violated.
�We must act now� is not a policy
If you are the sort of person who feels compelled to demand new gun control laws after a mass shooting, you have several options.
You can keep your recommendations vague, letting your audience fill in the blanks; push the policies you always push, regardless of whether they have anything to do with the latest outrage; or latch onto a detail of that crime, inflating its importance to support a seemingly germane solution.
Biden�s plan of destruction
Battle lines are drawn. The NRA is the target du jour of the litany of Democratic presidential candidates, vying for the boldest denouncement of the millions of armed, peaceful and law-abiding citizens in America. Six million strong, this large sector of the American public is an easy target for these �bold� politicians to threaten fearlessly; after all, they are law-abiding.
Edge of Second Amendment
Many people don�t realize that the Second Amendment at its core ��the right to keep and bear arms�� also applies to edged weaponry. The progressive left is chipping away at knife rights, just as much as it is chipping away at gun rights these days. However, just because you don�t see coverage on the mainstream media, don�t be fooled into thinking that no one is speaking out against the onslaught of illegal laws affecting law-abiding, knife owners.
MO: Protect Second Amendment
Gun control or restrictions will not stop the evil intentions of a heart. Emotional arguments about mass shootings and the banning of semi-automatic weapons and high capacity ammunition clips as a solution is senseless. We all know whether we want to admit it or not that taking away or limiting access to guns and ammo for law-abiding citizens will do nothing to stop gun violence. Making drugs illegal has not stopped the flow of drugs or the deaths associated with it. I�m not advocating for making drugs legal; however, but where there is a will there is a way, and if there is money to be made a way will be found.
MA: Lawsuit claims Stoughton police broke law by selling confiscated guns
In a civil complaint filed in U.S. District Court, former Stoughton resident Mykel Powell and his attorneys argued Stoughton police were legally obligated to wait a full year before turning Powell�s guns over to the Mass. State Police for destruction or public auction.
GOA Urges You to Contact President Trump
President Trump won the White House because he actually listened to Americans like you and me.
And right now, we need him to listen to us before he does something DRASTIC � again.
Following a report that the killer in the Virginia Beach shooting used a firearms suppressor,the President has been considering banning what the media calls �gun silencers.�
We need to warn him that if he bans suppressors, not only will he be waging war on the Second Amendment, he�ll be waging war against his own political base.
After all, because of the President�s actions, gun owners in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Iowa, Florida, and other must-win states may not show up to vote for him again in 2020.
Nerding Out on Gun Grip and Managing the Recoil
Pretty much every basic firearm class will cover how to grip the gun properly. You can find tons of articles and YouTube videos that cover this as well. But this one I came across the other day from Active Self Protection dives deep into the science of gripping a handgun and controlling the recoil. I found it to be pretty interesting and figured I�d share it here. And as a bonus video, here is one on how hard to grip your gun. This is actually the video I came across that lead me to the video above.
You are bound to meet misfortune if you are unarmed because, among other reasons, people despise you....There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed. In the latter case, there will be suspicion on the one hand and contempt on the other, making cooperation impossible. � Niccolo Machiavelli in "The Prince."

Solar: A Fall From Grace for Investors
By Ucilia Wang | 10.10.12
Solar is no longer the favorite among investors.
The Cleantech Group released its preliminary investment numbers on Tuesday to show that solar, once the top money grabber, ceded that spot to transportation, biofuel and green chemicals during the third quarter of this year. Solar investments accounted for only 4 percent ($70 million) of the $1.6 billion global cleantech investments during the third quarter. Transportation deals made up 21 percent ($320 million), biofuel and chemicals at 16 percent ($256 million), and smart grid at 13 percent ($208 million).
The slide has been happening for several quarters now, fueled in part by the tough times that solar technology developers, from silicon to cell and panel makers, have been experiencing for nearly two years now. A terrible imbalance of supply and demand has pummeled the prices of solar panels, causing them to fall 50 percent during 2011 and around 30 percent so far this year. All major players, from Suntech Power to First Solar, have scaled back production and expansion plans.
Back in 2008, 40 percent of the deal amount involved solar, compared with 12 percent for so far this year.
Many companies that were hoping to move from pilot to mass production during this period found themselves unable to compete or raise enough money to continue. Abound Solar filed for bankruptcy in July this year. Amonix closed its North Las Vegas factory after operating it for just a little more than a year. GE, which vowed to be a major solar panel maker using a cadmium-telluride technology, suspended its plan to build a 400-MW factory in Colorado. MiaSole, after raising somewhere around $500 million, is being sold to Hanergy, a renewable energy project developer in China, for a paltry $30 million
"Solar has really been out of favor, and it's coming through strongly in our numbers," said Sheeraz Haji, CEO of the Cleantech Group, during a conference call with reporters on Tuesday.
China, the home base of several of the world's largest solar equipment makers and a popular place for accessing money from the public markets, saw 10 companies suspending or pulling their IPO plans from January to August this year, Haji said.
Cleantech Group's finding corresponds with money surveys from other firms. Mercom Capital Group released a third-quarter investment report yesterday showing that venture capital funding fell to its lowest since 2008, reaching only $72 million with 14 deals in the third quarter. Even during the second quarter of this year, investors pumped in $376 million in 32 deals.
While manufacturers, who once made good money, now are suffering big losses, companies that develop and install solar energy projects are having an easier time attracting investments. Cheaper solar panel prices help them to reduce their costs. Plus these developers and installers have continued to benefit from federal, state and local government incentives to promote solar energy generation.
Companies such as Clean Power Finance, SunRun and SolarCity have been able to raise funds for business development and for financing solar panel installations. Charging home or business owners for using solar electricity rather than the equipment and labor costs makes going solar more affordable upfront. Blackstone, a private equity group, announced last month that it will buy home security system and solar installer, Vivint, for over $2 billion.
SolarCity's pending IPO will be a big test on whether public market investors will view solar companies in the project financing and retail service sector with a truly better bet than those in manufacturing. SolarCity is eyeing a $201 million IPO although it has yet to make a profit.

Mobile video has enabled the dramatic rise in video consumption across the Internet. Video already accounts for a considerable amount of the internet's bandwidth and that share is always growing.
Retention is one of the driving forces behind this growth. Video has the power to encourage users to return and retention is fast becoming a defining metric across the mobile space. Video ads result in a better retention rate for apps than non-video ads, and video ads served on iOS performed 10 percent better than ads served on Android devices.
Video seems to be at the center of a perfect balance right now. With increased smartphone and app usage among coveted demographics, and a strong desire for video content, video ads seem capable of solving a lot of problems for marketers and app developers.
Readers: What is your experience with mobile video ad engagement?

Why some people still think dating a younger man is taboo
Posted by Admin on Oct 22, 2017
Relationships should be about two people. However, in society, relationships are about how others perceive the two people. This perception informs the couple's dynamics in many subtle and overt ways. It's almost impossible for them to insulate themselves from the opinion of their social circle. And, in the end, this is what makes dating a younger man so hard for women.
The taboo associated with such an unconventional pairing can manifest itself in many forms. Some of the common reasons people find the idea of a young man dating an older woman uncomfortable are explored below:
# The gap in experience -- Many people will point out that an older woman has more experience in life than her younger partner. She is more worldly, and therefore, should be with someone equally or more familiar with life's vagaries. She should not be with a partner whose worldview is relatively immature. This idea seems to stem largely from the belief that a woman cannot respect a man who has less experience than her.
# Fading beauty -- No matter how small the age gap between the couple, the people around them will watch the woman for signs of ageing and compare her looks with that of her younger beau. If the woman /looks/ older than her partner, people instinctively wonder how the younger man can stand to be with her. They can't quite grasp that love and understanding extends beyond the transient issues of outer beauty.
# Sexual shaming -- While many magazines write tongue-in-cheek articles about the sexual stamina and appetite of younger male partners, there exists a strong feeling in society that older women should not be enjoying frequent sex. This ties into society's hangups about women's sexual freedom. Social conditioning strongly suggests that at some point a woman should stop dating and settle down with a same-aged or older partner. But when an older woman is seen with a younger man, society feels like she is breaking the natural laws of the world. She should be having less sex as she grows older, not more.
#Sugar momma -- It bewilders society when a younger man chooses to be with an older woman, so they immediately brand him a gold digger or someone equally opportunistic. The idea is that his feelings for her can never be very deep since there is a clear power imbalance between them. He must be with her for her money, power, status, or some other reason, no matter how far fetched they may be.
# Emasculation -- In the eyes of the world, a man is emasculated when he can't provide for the woman he's with. In many older woman-younger man relationships, the men earn less than their partners or may be wholly dependent on them. This feeds right into the prejudices against "Sugar Momma Dating." While the world would see nothing wrong if the relationship was inverted; society can't accept a woman having a higher financial or social status than her partner.
People will take pains to point out every single way in which such a relationship might fail, plumbing inadequacies that exist among all couples. The points they make may even ring true for some couples; however, the danger is in generalizing these beliefs to the point that we ignore the fact that every relationship is different. There have been many successful relationships between older women and younger men in history, and it's becoming quite a common sight today. It's time we banished such old prejudices and allowed individuals to make their own dating choices without judgment.

SF Chron: WH Sending Gay Jocks to Sochi; Rainbow Flag Waving?
(A Russian police officer breaking up a gay rights rally earlier this year in St. Petersburg.)
Political reporter Carla Marinucci of the San Francisco Chronicle called today to ask what I thought of the Obama administration announcing two out LGBT athletes are among our country's delegation to the Olympics. As always, I want the celebrities to do a whole heckuva lot more than just smile for the cameras and talk about their careers.
There must be strong and unqualified visible activism from the United States delegates heading to the games, and activism that directly engages with LGBT Russian citizens. Sure, my quotes here pertain only to the gay jocks in the delegation, but we really need to have every member of it finding creative and forceful ways to showcase the lives and struggles of gay Russians. Will that happen? We'll find in February when the games begin.
From Carla's reporting at the Chronicle site:
The White House has named two prominent gay athletes — skater Brian Boitano and tennis great Billie Jean King — to represent the country at the opening of the Sochi Winter Olympics in February, a move that could spotlight growing protests over LGBT rights in Russia. [...]
San Francisco gay rights activist and blogger Michael Petrelis, who has reported on the protests leading up to the Sochi Olympics for months, says that the pressure will now be on Boitano and King — as well as other gay athletes, and UC President Janet Napolitano, leading the delegation — to make the Sochi games more than just an Olympics public relations event.
"What will the gay athletes do to protest Putin's anti-gay propaganda laws?," he asks. "Will they meet with LGBT Russians when they are there?" [...]
The law punishes anyone who "promotes" homosexuality to young people; critics have said that could extend even to athletes who bring rainbow flags — a symbol of gay rights — or who wear t-shirts or pins promoting LGBT rights. Others suggest that Russian LGBT parents may also become a target of prosecution. [...]
To counter, activists have called for boycotts of Russian consumer products and withdrawals of sister-city relationships and U.S. investments in Russia.
Petrelis, the Bay Area activist, has predicted the Winter Games are poised to become "a watershed moment for the global movement" toward LGBT rights.
Now he's urging the athletes to take a stand — a big one. [...] "I'd like to see Billie Jean and Brian at a vigil for the victims of anti-gay violence in Russia," he said. "I'd like to see them wave the rainbow flag outside the Olympic village with LGBT Russian at their side."

St John's Wood Jews told: 'Your eruv needs you!'
Ben Bloom
Published: 12:05 PM April 26, 2012 Updated: 1:31 PM October 14, 2020
Appeal made to build support for a Jewish boundary around St John's Wood and Maida Vale
"Your eruv needs you!" is the call that has been issued for Orthodox Jews to support plans for a boundary of poles and wires around St John's Wood and Maida Vale.
The boundary line, known as an eruv, would mark out an area for Orthodox Jews to carry out tasks on the Sabbath that would usually be deemed as work – such as carrying or pushing.
Plans were first drawn up for a North Westminster eruv by St John's Wood Synagogue at the start of 2010 with a thin wire forming a ring around Lisson Grove, St John's Wood, Maida Vale, Finchley Road and parts of Regent's Park.
The proposals were put on the back burner.
But writing in the synagogue's recent newsletter, former St John's Wood Society chairman Andrew Mainz said: "Opposition to the eruv must become as unfashionable as supporting parking restrictions in the West End on evenings and Sundays."
He added: "A small group of people have been responsible for the drawing up of the plans. They now need a lot of support and help if the application is to be made successfully.
"It would, of course, be bad if an application were to be made and fail.
''The PR campaign needs to be led by an enlarged, reinvigorated committee, which will act as the proposer for the planning application."
Mr Mainz, who declined to comment beyond his newsletter article, also wrote that there was "a splendid set of plans for the North Westminster eruv waiting to be used".
But he warned that three major problems must first be overcome – worries over religion in public spaces, xenophobic attitudes and concerns among Westminster councillors.
Mr Mainz accuses some local councillors of wanting to "boost their popularity and success by opposing any application" while council officers "also appear hostile".
Regent's Park Cllr Daniel Astaire, a lifelong member of St John's Wood Synagogue, said: "As and when an application is submitted, it will be dealt with along ordinary planning grounds and I will deal with it as I would do with any planning application.
"The religious element does not make it any different from any other application."
The possible revival of the North Westminster eruv comes after plans were announced last month to set up a Camden eruv around Hampstead, Belsize Park and West Hampstead.
The creation of eruvs in North Westminster and Camden, coupled with the existing North West London eruv around Golders Green, would see much of the area contained within new eruv boundaries.

Thunder waive Austin Rivers, roster trimmed to 14
Posted bybencreider March 28, 2021 November 22, 2021 Posted inTeam NewsTags:Austin Rivers, Team News
Sixty-six hours, forty-five minutes — that's how long Austin Rivers officially reigned a member of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The Athletic's Senior NBA Inside Shams Charania broke the news midday Sunday that Austin Rivers had been officially waived.
Oklahoma City's parting of Rivers comes to no avail as Friday reports signaled the 28-year-old had not reported to the team, and with the Thunder's other acquisition Tony Bradley arriving in Bricktown Saturday — the writing was on the wall.
Rivers' departure will cost the Thunder $3.5 million to shed, however it is a worthwhile investment. With guards Theo Maledon and Ty Jerome surfacing as potential point-guards around Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Rivers would've had no role in the organization outside of holding a roster spot.
For the case of Rivers, finding a partner in the buyout market should be no issue as the guard has averaged 7.3 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in his 21 games with the Knicks. Milwaukee appears to be the front-runner on Rivers at this time.
When it comes to Oklahoma City, this scenario has been long in the making. The Thunder have carried all 15 NBA roster spots for the entirety of the season; however, the recent emergence of two-way player Moses Brown has in essence forced Sam Presti's hand into handing the 21-year-old a full scale contract.
Moses Brown has terrorized opponents since returning from his Orlando showcase, boasting averages of 12.4 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks in his nine game March stand. Stack this with the insight Al Horford will rest the remainder of the season — Brown's signing is a no-brainer.
There is no official standing on if Moses Brown will be signed in the next coming hours, or in the season's sunset stages to salvage a relatively feeble sum of money, but one thing is for sure — expect Presti to upgrade Moses Brown in the near future.
Moses Brown's record-setting performance not enough, as Thunder stumble to Celtics 111-94
It's Official — Thunder sign Moses Brown to multiyear contract

Q: Why is the location provided redundantly at two different places in the same object? I'm playing around with Bing Maps and running the following code, I noticed that the very exact same information on coordinates is provided at two places in the same object. Trusting that it's not a blunder from the designers, I wonder what the purpose of that apparent redundancy might be.
Are the values ever different?
Are they, perhaps, obtained in two different ways?
var geolocationProvider = new Microsoft.Maps
  .GeoLocationProvider(map).getCurrentPosition({
    successCallback: function(data) {
      var thisLatitude = data.position.coords.latitude;
      var alsoLatitude = data.center.latitude;
    } ...
});

The API for getCurrentPosition states that I get two entities:
1. Location containing info on latitude, longitude and altitude
2. Position, the coordinates of which contain info on latitude, longitude and altitude
Can't see why the duck (typo intended) this redundancy...

A: This is documented here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh125839.aspx The center is self explanatory. The position contains all the raw data from the GPS/location API.

Capture tap water. While you wait for hot water to come down the pipes, catch the flow in a watering can to use later on house plants or your garden. You may save 200 to 300 gallons per month.
Don't run the hose while washing your car. Use a bucket of water and a quick hose rinse at the end. You may save 150 gallons each time. For a two-car family that's up to 1,200 gallons a month.
Don't use your toilet as an ashtray or wastebasket. You may save 400 to 600 gallons per month.
Don't water the sidewalks, driveway or gutter. Adjust your sprinklers so that water lands on your lawn or garden where it belongs--and only there. You may save 500 gallons per month.
Fix leaky faucets and plumbing joints. You may save 20 gallons per day for every leak stopped.
Install water-saving shower heads or flow restrictors. You may save 500 to 800 gallons per month.
Run only full loads in the washing machine and dishwasher. You may save 300 to 800 gallons per month.
Shorten your showers. Even a one or two minute reduction may save up to 700 gallons per month.
Use a broom instead of a hose to clean driveways and sidewalks. You may save 150 gallons or more each time. At once a week, that's more than 600 gallons a month.
Water your lawn only when it needs it. Step on your grass. If it springs back when you lift your foot, it doesn't need water. So set your sprinklers for more days in between watering. You may save 750-1,500 gallons per month!

The Maddigans are a Canadian Pop Punk/Rock band from Edmonton, Alberta. The band are best known for their DIY touring schedule, including playing 19 countries without a booking agent. They have also released 3 EPs and one studio album.

History
The Maddigans formed in 2008 in Edmonton, Alberta, consisting of Trisha Watson on vocals, Benn Kimmis on drums and Eric Paone on guitar. All of the members had been friends since junior high school and had performed in other bands together.

The band released their debut EP Say It Loud in 2009. They later added bassist Thaddeus Lake to the band and began to tour alongside western Canadian bands such as The Kick Off, The Perfect Trend and Acres of Lions. In 2010 they released another EP "Way To Start This" and toured across Canada with Everyone Everywhere. During this tour Eric Paone left the band. Later that year the band added guitarist Seb Sanders as a replacement.

In 2011 the band toured the US for the first time and played Canadian Music Week In Toronto. This was followed by Ontario dates with Set It Off. In November that year bassist Thaddeus Lake was killed in a car accident by a drunk driver.

In 2012 the band released their EP "Love Vs Passion", their first with Sanders. It was dedicated it to their former bassist Thaddeus Lake. By this time the band had already done 8 Canadian tours and 2 US tours, covering "more kilometers than any [other] Edmonton band over the last 5 years". The release was immediately followed by their first UK tour.
 The band would go on to tour the UK 6 times and Europe twice over the next 2 years. In 2016 they added Mike Hawman to the band as a bassist. They also released their first album "No Place Like Here", which was debuted on Alternative Press. Three songs from the release received regular airplay on Idobi Radio.

Style
Circuit Sweet described the band as having a "weighty mix of pop punk and pop rock"

Marek: What If The Coyotes Preyed On Wright?
Published on May 12, 2022 May 17, 2022 by JD Lagrange
By JD Lagrange – Okay, it's not a rumour. But we decided to include this in the rumour mill regardless as we're going on conjunctures and possibilities, coming from a NHL insider. So bear with me here. I know, I know, some people are getting hot under the collar hearing people talk about the possibility of the Canadiens trading the first overall pick at the upcoming Draft. Let's get something clear: the odds of that happening are close to none. Happy? But it doesn't mean that we can't toy around the idea as to what it would take. And here, we're going on what an insider said… So respect each other and their opinions, please.
Hughes will listen
In spite of what you think should or should not happen, or at least be entertained, Canadiens' GM Kent Hughes will not hang up the phone if it rings and another GM wants to talk about the first overall pick. He would not be doing his job if he did and he acknowledged that himself in his post-draft lottery media interviews.
"You're always better off listening to what people say. At the moment, I can't tell you that it's not something we would entertain," said Hughes about the possibility of trading the 1st overall pick. "If we get calls for the pick we'll listen, but it's not in our plans to trade this pick."
Remember that Shane Wright is NOT a generational talent like Sidney Crosby and Connor McDavid, or even Connor Bedard in a year from now. In fact, while most draft expert have them going number one, the gap between him and the next three or four prospects isn't big. Some Habs' fans seem to think that because he's the highest ranked player, that he's a centre, and that some say that his ceiling is comparable to Patrice Bergeron, he's a sure thing. We shouldn't have to remind anyone that not all first overall players pan out. It's not unusual to have players selected later outperform the first overall pick.
The jury is still out between Taylor Hall and Tyler Seguin… 12 years later! If the 2011 Draft was to be redone, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, also a center, would not go first overall. In fact, no fewer than five players selected after him have more career points than him. Don't think for a second that Leon Draisaitl and David Pastrnak wouldn't be selected before number one pick Aaron Ekblad! Nico Hishier is a good player but don't think for a second that the Devils wouldn't pick Cale Makar instead, who was selected number four. And we're not even talking about Doug Wickenheiser, Alexander Daigle and Nail Yakupov here.
Marek's proposal
Jeff Marek, as you know, has a podcast with Elliotte Friedman, called 32-Thoughts the podcast. He came up with a scenario that makes you think. At least, it will make people who don't see Wright as a generational talent, think.
"If you're the Montreal Canadiens, and I know you're hosting the draft. If the Arizona Coyotes come to you and say 'We will give you our No. 3 overall pick and our first-rounder next season in exchange for the 2022 first overall pick,' what do you say?" asked Jeff Marek.
Connor Bedard
Such trade would give the Canadiens the Coyotes' first round pick for next season, basically giving them a shot at Connor Bedard and Matvei Mitchkov. Kent Hughes would be crazy not to want to accept such an offer.
Now Friedman shut this down in a hurry, claiming that the Coyotes would never make such an offer. He's probably right. But when we're talking about Hughes listening to offers, this is what it's all about… whether it displeases and even offends some people.
With the Draft in Montreal, it's even more unlikely that the Canadiens would trade that first overall pick. It's a fairytale scenario, with a packed Bell Centre and the anticipation of the home crowd. But the Canadiens are not in the business to entertain NHL Draft crowds, even their own fans. They're in the business of getting the best player(s), or the best deal available. If it was Connor Bedard, it wouldn't be on the table. But we're not talking Bedard caliber here. So keep an open mind folks, as Hughes will, rest assured.

Rink Bourgoin says:
I was listening to you guys attempt to figure out if there was a deal that would convince Huges to trade his first pick.
Since I didn't here anyone mention this option, which we see in the NFL. Looking at the Seattle (2) and Phoenix (3), is there a player that would be very attractive to MTL?
Enters Jakob Chuchrun from Phoenix. If you believe as I do, that JC would become our number Dman, then here's the trade.
Last year, Phoenix media stated the ask for JC was a first round pick, a top prospect and a nhl player.
So I am offering for Chuchrun to trade our first pick with phoenix's first pick 2022. I add Mailloux or another top d prospect that is not Baron or Ghule. Then we figure which of our regular player we can add, let's say Poehling since he is still young.
Maybe we get a second pick or a player with this trade to balance things out.
What say you???
JD Lagrange says:
I see what you're saying and value-wise, it could be a possibility. There are a couple of issues that I can foresee though. It's a fairly complex trade, something we don't see often, particularly that Arizona is the likely destination for Shea Weber's contract. Even with that contract included, Chychrun makes $4.6M and the Habs have no room right now to add cap. Anything can be worked out but it would take a lot of creativity and the more moving pieces there are, the harder it is to find common grounds between the two teams value-wise. Last but not least, the Habs are then adding another LD, their deepest position.
Rocky says:
I see where you're going RB, but in flipping 1st rounders, phx is really trading JC for just a prospect and a regular player.

IS FIDM WORTH SPENDING MONEY FOR?


Here at Radiadores Cerezo we specialise in custom manufacturing. All our exchangers are calculated, designed and manufactured with your needs in mind and so we can provide you with a wide variety of options that can be combined depending on each project.
In the area of copper and continuous fin tubes we offer three configurations: 25 x 21.65 mm geometry and 3/8″ tubes, 38 x 34 mm geometry and 5/8″ tubes and 60 x 30 mm geometry and 5/8″ tubes. We also offer solutions with stainless steel tubes (AISI 304 and AISI 316) and continuous fin tubes with two configurations: 60 x 30 mm geometry and 5/8″ tubes and 40 x 35 mm geometry and 5/8″ tubes.
An additional line is the F38 and I38 with steel and stainless steel tubes with helical fins around the tubes that provides them with a sturdiness ideal for air treatment processes where working conditions are more restrictive.
All of them can be combined with fins made of aluminium, copper, aluminium with epoxy treatment, copper or stainless steel.
In addition to manufacturing heat exchangers – the core of the thermal exchange – we have added complementary products such as fan heaters, solar heat sinks, air coolers and air conditioning units. Custom-built products with fans (EBM PAPST, ZIEHL ABEGG, SODECA or SOLER I PALAU) selected according to each need and accessories such as filters, condensate trays, droplet separators and regulators suited to each project.
