Giraffe House is a single-family dwelling on a problematic site: A busy highway is directly downhill of the site, producing significant noise and blocking the view of Cayuga Lake. Giraffe house reaches up and over the highway to get views of the lake while blocking out the view of the highway. On the north side, the house stretches out to hover over an existing gorge. In between, an office and entry space connect the two parts of the house.

Galaxy defender Julian Araujo and midfielder Ulysses Llanez, a former Galaxy academy player, were both named Thursday to the final 20-man U.S. roster for next week's CONCACAF Olympic qualifying soccer tournament in Guadalajara.
The qualifying tournament, originally scheduled for March 2020, was delayed a year because of COVID-19. The Olympic soccer competition for men is a U-23 event, one the U.S. has played in once since 2000.
"We know that qualifying will be a challenge, but it's a challenge that we're ready for," U.S. coach Jason Kreis said in a statement. "We'll need all 20 players on this roster to contribute for us to achieve our ultimate goal of qualifying for the Olympics.
"Our players are hungry for the opportunity to compete. We're excited to get started."
The U.S. opens play March 18 against Costa Rica. It also will face the Dominican Republic (March 21) and Mexico, the 2012 Olympic champion (March 24), in group play. The second group consists of Canada, Haiti, El Salvador and Honduras.
The top two teams in each four-country group will advance to the semifinals, both of which qualify for the Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
The Galaxy's Efraín Álvarez did not make Mexico's roster, but LAFC goalkeeper Tomas Romero was named to El Salvador's team.
Araujo, 19, is one of 11 players on the qualifying roster who also has played for the senior national team and one of 16 currently playing in MLS. Llanez, 19, who plays for Heerenveen in the Netherlands, is one of four roster players based overseas.
In addition to Araujo (Lompoc) and Llanez (Lynwood), other players with California connections include goalkeepers JT Marcinkowski (Alamo) and David Ochoa (Oxnard) and forward Sebastian Soto of San Diego.

LAFC defender Marco Farfan and Galaxy goalkeeper Jonathan Klinsmann, who were on the U.S. training camp roster, did not make the final cut and were returned to their clubs. Klinsmann sustained a concussion in practice last week.
The roster that countries use in qualifying is not necessarily the one they will use in the Summer Games. Although the tournament is a U-23 competition, because the Olympics were delayed a year FIFA has ruled that players born on or after Jan. 1, 1997, are eligible. That would allow the U.S. to call up senior national team regulars such as Christian Pulisic, Weston McKennie, Sergiño Dest, Tyler Adams and Reggie Cannon, provided they are released for the tournament by the club teams.
France would be able to call up World Cup star Kylian Mbappe, and Brazil could use Gabriel Jesus without requiring one of three over-age exemptions.
Goalkeepers: Matt Freese (Philadelphia Union; Wayne, Pa.), JT Marcinkowski (San Jose Earthquakes, Alamo, Calif.), David Ochoa (Real Salt Lake; Oxnard, Calif.)
Defenders: Julian Araujo (Galaxy; Lompoc, Calif.), Justen Glad (Real Salt Lake; Tucson), Aaron Herrera (Real Salt Lake; Las Cruces, N.M.), Henry Kessler (New England Revolution; New York), Mauricio Pineda (Chicago Fire FC; Bolingbrook, Ill.), Sam Vines (Colorado Rapids; Colorado Springs, Colo.)
Midfielders: Johnny Cardoso (Internacional/BRA; Denville, N.J.), Hassani Dotson (Minnesota United FC; Federal Way, Wash.), Ulysses Llanez (Heerenveen/NED; Lynwood, Calif.), Djordje Mihailovic (CF Montreal/CAN; Jacksonville, Fla.), Andrés Perea (Orlando City SC; Medellin, Colombia), Sebastian Saucedo (UNAM Pumas/MEX; Park City, Utah), Jackson Yueill (San Jose Earthquakes; Bloomington, Minn.)
Forwards: Jesús Ferreira (FC Dallas; McKinney, Texas), Jonathan Lewis (Colorado Rapids; Plantation, Fla.), Benji Michel (Orlando City SC; Orlando, Fla.), Sebastian Soto (Norwich City/ENG; San Diego)

Michael Henry Marsham,  comte de Romney (22 novembre 1910 – 5 juin 2004) est un pair héréditaire britannique qui siège à la Chambre des lords de 1975 à 1999.

Biographie
Michael Henry Marsham est né le 22 novembre 1910 à Washpit Farm sur le domaine Rougham Hall de la famille North, à Rougham près de King's Lynn à Norfolk, en Angleterre. Son père est Reginald Hastings Marsham (1865–1922), le deuxième fils de Charles Marsham,  comte de Romney, qui est donc son grand-père paternel, et sa mère est Dora Hermione North (décédée en 1923). Il devient orphelin à l'âge de douze ans.

Il fait ses études à la Sherborne School, un pensionnat privé à Sherborne, dans le Dorset, dans le sud-ouest de l'Angleterre, affilié à l' Église d'Angleterre .

Carrière
Il travaille comme gérant d'un domaine appartenant à Shane O'Neill,  baron O'Neill et situé à Randalstown dans le comté d'Antrim, en Irlande du Nord. Il perçoit les loyers des locataires catholiques romains qui vivaient sur le domaine.

Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il sert comme major dans l' Artillerie royale de l' armée britannique et stationne dans le comté de Londonderry .

Il reprend son travail de gestionnaire immobilier peu après la guerre en 1945, jusqu'en 1963. C'est alors qu'il est évident qu'il hériterait du comté, et il retourne dans le Norfolk où les comtes de Romney ont un domaine à Gayton Hall .

Il hérite des titres (baron Romney, vicomte Marsham et comte de Romney) de son cousin, Charles Marsham,  comte de Romney, en 1975, à l'âge de soixante ans.  En conséquence, il est pair héréditaire à la Chambre des lords de 1975 à 1999, date à laquelle il a perdu son siège à la Chambre à la suite de la loi de 1999 sur la Chambre des lords. Même s'il siège à la Chambre pendant vingt-cinq ans, il n'a jamais prononcé un seul discours.  Il est interviewé dans The Lord's Tale, un documentaire télévisé réalisé par Molly Dineen sur les pairs héréditaires.  Dans le documentaire, il plaisante en disant que personne ne se souciait de ses opinions, mais que le Parti conservateur était heureux d'avoir son vote de son côté.

Passionné de chasse au renard, il est Secrétaire des West Norfolk Foxhounds pendant de nombreuses années.  Il a également participé à la marche de la campagne organisée par la Countryside Alliance en septembre 2002, lorsque  défile dans le centre de Londres pour défendre les intérêts de la Grande-Bretagne rurale. Il est président de la Marine Society jusqu'à sa mort.

Vie privée
Il épouse Aileen Landale en 1939. Sa femme décède en 1995. Ils n'ont pas d'enfants.

Décès
Il décède le 5 juin 2004 à son domicile de Wensum Farm, West Rudham, Norfolk. Il a quatre-vingt-treize ans.  Son titre est hérité par un cousin, Julian Charles Marsham .

In my spare time I really love to read, act, and write. I'm trying to learn how to crochet, trying being the key word here. Yoga is also something I am trying to figure out. I also love talking to people and hanging with friends.
What activities are you involved in on campus?
Marymount Actor's Guild, Peer Mentor, YARN Club, and Her Campus. I also was part of ACE.
My favorite part of being a leader on campus is the creative aspect. I love being able to think of solutions to issues on campus or within a club. I also like that I can be part of every step of an event. It gives me a huge sense of accomplishment.
If I am being honest, Marymount was not my top school. It was my safety school. All my friends from high school were applying and being accepted into these huge schools and I thought that it would be the same for me. Instead, I came here. I got a really generous scholarship, and the people were a lot friendlier here when I visited than they were at other schools. At the end of the whole process, I came to the perfect school for me.
The study abroad program. I have studied abroad every year since starting college. The spring break trips make it so affordable, and the places they choose and the classes that go are always super interesting.
I have multiple alarms set on my phone, so I hit snooze like three times. Then I get ready and try to get some breakfast. Then its class and then working in the Peer Mentor office. Once that is finished, I get some dinner, hang out with friends, and then do homework. I have rehearsals at 9:30 until 11ish. After those end I get back to my room and make my to do list for the next day. And then I hit the hay.
In all honesty, I can't seen myself ten minutes from now! Hopefully in the next five years I will be happy and enjoying life.
What is your most memorable moment at Marymount?
My twenty-first birthday. It was probably the best birthday I've ever had. I went to lunch with some friends at the Cheesecake Factory, and on the way back there was this crazy guy on the shuttle. He had obviously been smoking something, and wasn't even a student. He followed us off the bus, and it was just super weird. We called campus safety and we scattered to our rooms. About twenty minutes later I heard a knock on the door. I thought it was going to be campus safety or my RA. But instead, it was my friends with a birthday cake. They had set up this fantastic surprise party, and it totally made me forget about the creepy guy. They were so stealth about it. I had no clue that they had planned it. I thought they'd all gone back to their rooms to do homework. Instead, we ate cake.
Marymount has taught me a lot of things, but the biggest life lesson I have learned from Marymount is that attitude is everything. If you go into something with a bad attitude and have negative thoughts before, you are not going to have a good experience. If you go into something with a good attitude, you're way more likely to gain something from it.
The real question is what isn't my dream job. I want to do so many things. What I know for sure is that I would really love to do something creative. I would love to work creatively in theater. That is something I have always wanted to do. I also would love to be a beauty writer or editor. Any kind of writer really. I would also like a job that has travel involved. My roommate says I'd make a really entertaining Youtuber. As to how I will get there, I am completely aware that those jobs are few and far between. But I am not above paying my dues to get them.
Homesickness. When I began school, I was so homesick it began to cripple my self esteem and I felt as if nobody understood me or felt the same way. I was shy, which is not a way I would describe myself. I was really self conscious about everything. As time went on and I began to meet people, I became much more independent and outgoing. I still miss home, but I am so much better at being alone.
Something happy-go-lucky, like a rabbit or a puppy. Both of those are full of energy, and you can't help but smile when you think of one.
Right now, I would love to go to Jordan. My best friend is Jordanian, and she talks about it all the time. I want to see it for myself. I would also love to go to Portugal, Denmark, New Zealand, Peru, and Iceland.
I have so many! "This is a day by day operation, and today is the light re-con day." from the movie The Other Woman and "You can be anything, but not everything." by David Allen are two great ones.

There is only one paper submission category, from 4 to 10 pages (excluding references). Papers ready for journal publication will be directly published in a special issue of IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics (TVCG). Other accepted papers will be published in the ISMAR proceedings. Paper quality versus length will be assessed according to a contribution-per-page judgment.
All accepted papers will be orally presented at the ISMAR conference.
All accepted papers will have the opportunity to be presented as a demo.
All accepted papers will have the opportunity to be presented as a poster.
All accepted papers will be archived in the IEEE Xplore digital library.

Earlier this week, the BBC pulled its podcasts from Google's Podcast app and Assistant platform after determining that it wasn't getting enough out of the relationship, specifically noting that Google wasn't providing it with enough audience data and search links to its own sites and services. Today, we get some more context and development on that decision.
In the past few years it's become increasingly evident that while social media was a fantastic new way to get into the minds of people and understand what they thought in order to sell them things, you couldn't just rely on the blathering of millions of people. You also had to literally ask them questions.

The US-instigated trade war with the rest of the world kicked off last week with US tariffs on Chinese imports. China responded in kind, but also launched a charm offensive in Europe. Europe faces an important choice between looking backwards towards an American financial and economic hegemony in decline or forward towards a Chinese financial and economic hegemony in the ascendancy.

'The Bourne Ultimatum' – Matt Damon's final run on Peacock
!Featured, Action, Blu-ray, DVD, Peacock, spies and espionage, Streaming Movies, SVOD, thriller 05/03/202105/03/2021 Sean Axmaker
Matt Damon returns in the "Bourne" franchise in The Bourne Ultimatum (2007), playing the great anti-Bond of Hollywood action cinema for his third and final time.
Jason Bourne is a former covert assassin essentially programmed by the CIA to be an emotionless killing machine, and he's determined to reclaim his identity and his humanity. His search for his stolen past takes him back to the heart of the Company, much to the panic of the man (David Strathairn) behind the illegal program that created Bourne.
Damon is perfect in the role, clicking into the cold, calculating professional with a snap, letting nothing show in his face until the danger has passed and the man under the training reasserts himself. Paul Greengrass, who also directed The Bourne Supremacy, continues his rough and ready style of choreographing complex action scenes on location and throwing the audience into the middle of the chaos with a handheld camera that whips and searches and follows the action as if the cameraman was catching it all on the fly.
Joan Allen and Julia Stiles are also back, Scott Glenn plays the shady new CIA director, Paddy Considine is a British journalist tracking a story that leads to Bourne, and the great Albert Finney co-stars.

Director Paul Greengrass jumps into his commentary without preamble, just as he jumps into the film, and then he backs out to talk, thoughtfully but directly, about his dramatic and cinematic choices scene by scene. "Man on the Move: Jason Bourne" is a half-hour behind-the-scenes featurette on the five location shoots in Europe and the U.S. and the 10-minute "New York Chase" shows the creation of the climactic street chase. Brief featurettes also cover the stunt training for the chase ("Driving School"), the "Rooftop Pursuit" in Algiers, and the choreography for the hand-to-hand close quarter combat ("Planning the Punches") that follows the chase. The 12 minutes of deleted scenes feature a character played by Denis Lavant (one of my favorite French actors) who was cut completely from the film.

Βλάχο Μπούκοβατς (1855 - 1922)
Κροάτης ζωγράφος (5 Ιουλίου 1855 - 23 Απριλίου 1922). Ο Μπούκοβατς γεννήθηκε στα νότια του Ντουμπρόβνικ. Ο πατέρας του ήταν Ιταλός και η μητέρα του από τη Κροατία. Στα Ιταλικά είναι γνωστός σαν Biagio Faggioni.
Σπούδασε στο Παρίσι, στη φημισμένη σχολή École des Beaux-Arts.
Vlaho Bukovac (1855 - 1922)
Vlaho Bukovac (5 July 1855 - 23 April 1922), a Croatian painter. His life and work were eclectic, for the artist pursued his career in a variety of locales and his style changed greatly over the course of that career. He is probably best known for his 1887 nude Une fleur (A Flower), which he created during his French period and which received attention in various reviews and publications during his lifetime.
Bukovac was born as Biagio Faggioni in the town of Cavtat south of Dubrovnik in Dalmatia. His father was an Italian from Genoa, while his mother was of Croatian descent.
Bukovac received his artistic education in Paris where he was sent by the patron (Knez) Medo Pucić. His small studies and sketches delighted his professor, the well-known Alexandre Cabanel, and Bukovac became a student at the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts.
Bukovac died in Prague.
Bukovac began his career in France. Painted in a "sugary" realistic style, his fashionable paintings achieved great success at the Paris Salon. During his sojourn in France, he travelled to England and the coast of Dalmatia, where he was born. His wide travels throughout his life also included voyages to the Black Sea, South (Chile and Peru), and North America.
He learnt English when living in America as a teenager and, from the mid-1880s to the First World War, regularly visited England, where many of his most popular pictures were sold by the London art dealers, Vicars Bros. They included his large religious piece, Suffer the Little Children to Come to Me, and three nude subjects, The White Slave, Potiphar's Wife and Adam and Eve. In Britain, Bukovac also painted portraits of Vicars's clients, including his best patrons Samson Fox of Harrogate and Richard LeDoux of Liverpool. Samson Fox had bought Suffer the Little Children to Come to Me, exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1888, which was later presented to St Robert's church in Harrogate.
Bukovac became a significant representative of fine arts in Zagreb, Croatia from 1893 to 1897, bringing with him the spirit of French art. These new directives are most evident in his landscapes. He then began using a palette of lively and lighter colors using liberated strokes, soft rendering and the introduction of light on the painting canvas. In his time in Zagreb, he became a leader at many important cultural and artistic events. He founded the Zagreb multicoloured school, helped initiate the construction of the Art Pavilion, and organized the first artistic exhibition in the Academy Palace in 1893. Due to conflict with Izidor Kršnjavi and his great sensitivity, he withdrew to his native Cavtat where he stayed from 1898 to 1902. Upon his return to Prague he was appointed associate professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague in 1903.
His departure from Prague resulted in a complete change of personality for Bukovac. He felt satisfaction and enthusiasm in Zagreb that he had not felt in a while, and began to dedicate all of his energy to his new students, one of which was noted Croatian painter Mirko Rački. It was in this time he introduced pointillism to the Prague Academy, and earned his historical reputation as an excellent pedagogue. In Zagreb, he is probably best known as the painter of the theatre curtain in the Croatian National Theatre, "Croatian National Revival".
Besides being an artist who followed the established canons dictated by the Salon and the general public, he followed his own inner impulses of artistic creation. Liberated artistic expression, which was called Impressionism, developed in the spirit of the artists who kept gathering in modernism-oriented marginal galleries in Paris in the 1870s. He knew the spirit of academism and, on the other hand, he felt the spirit of Impressionistic freedom. Having accepted modern principles, Bukovac painted casual pictures, using liberated strokes of the brush, in thepointillist technique.
Vlaho's painting "Une fleur" sold at Bonhams in London on 14 June 2006 for £100.800.00, including the auction premium. The auction house identified the painting as Reclining Nude.


We (the missus and I) decided a few years ago to make a move to Australia (that place that is slightly less sunny than our native Scotland!).
Well, we have finally made a concrete move in that direction by the missus applying for and being accepted for a GP position; with a provisional start date of 01 August 2016.
outdoor fitness companies are based mainly in the Northern Perth area (just across Swan river).
We have lots of things to consider and remember to do, such as: schools, housing, cars, movers, flights, etcetera.

SXSW 2020: Second Batch of Programming Announced
By Sean Boelman
Dembanger horror-thriller film still. Credit: Jonathan Pope.
On February 5, the SXSW Film Festival announced the remainder of the programming that will be screening at the 2020 SXSW Film Festival, which runs March 13-21 in Austin, TX. Among the films announced are those that will be screening as "Midnighters", "Festival Favorites", and "Special Events", in addition to other late-addition features and the shorts, title design, and virtual reality cinema competitions.
The "Midnighters" section is home to those films best seen after dark (and with a little bit of liquid fun, if you're lucky enough to be attending a screening at the Alamo Drafthouse), from horror features to bizarre and surreal comedies. This section always contains some of the lineup's most intriguing films, if only because they are usually the weirdest, and this year is no exception. Highlights include the social-media-inspired thriller Dembanger and the Blumhouse thriller Run Sweetheart Run.
In the "Festival Favorites" section, attendees will be able to see great films that have been gaining steady buzz on the festival circuit, including some from this year's Sundance Film Festival, which just ended. Arguably one of the most exciting films in the section is Charm City KIngs, a new coming-of-age tale with story by Moonlight writer-director Barry Jenkins. Festival-goers also won't want to miss deadpan buddy comedy The Climb, which has been nominated for Indie Spirit Awards.
The "Special Events" section features special screenings of films in a unique environment that only a festival like SXSW can provide. Festival-goers will be treated to screenings of films with new restorations or live score performances. Although these don't fall within the realm of traditional film screenings, attendees should definitely check these events out if they get the chance, because they certainly provide a unique experience.
As anyone who has been to SXSW will tell you, the announcement of the program is just the beginning. Now, attendees must get to work scheduling their stay at SXSW. Whether you are staying for the whole festival or only coming for part, it is nearly impossible to squeeze in everything because of the wealth of great films that will be showing. And of course, you have to leave room for some buzz screenings! Still, with plenty to choose from, this year's festival is sure to be a fun and cinema-packed week!
The 2020 SXSW Film Festival runs from March 12-21 in Austin, TX.

The Commonwealth hasn't had such puritan laws since Cromwell was in charge
Out of Europe, and into the world. That was the message of Brexiteers nationwide this time last year: away from a world of regulation, and onwards towards closer ties with the rising economies of Asia, Latin America and our old friends in the Commonwealth.
But if anything, the Anglosphere is proving even more egregious when it comes to theworld of regulation and overbearance than the EU. Only the other week, we saw first hand the baffling attitude of Australian lawmakers towards vaping, a proven means of cutting down on harmful smoking rates.
This week, in the Canadian Huffington Post, Yael Ossowski has painted an equally cutting picture of the People's Republic of Canada, a country that has become ever more aggressive towards liberal-minded business under the command of their Supreme Leader, Comrade Trudeau.
Ossowski jumps on statistics that demonstrate the Canadians are smoking less tobacco than they used to, and points out that this development has been helped, in no small part, by the market. Much like in Australia, vaping, or electronic cigarettes, have been shown to be significantly less harmful, and act as a means of weaning people off the hard stuff. This is the reason Canadians are lighting up less often.
But can you convince the Mounties of this? Can you heck. As in Australia, authorities have proven to be outwardly hostile towards vaping. Jane Philpott (or perhaps just two drops short of a full pot) the Canadian Health Minister, has suggested the government will look to introduce firmer measures to control vaping, even though she admits it's significantly more healthy than smoking. Where's the logic in that?
The problem, as ever, is that big government never likes to admit that the market has anything to do with progress: what they want is to control things themselves, and in this case, as with all things nanny-state, will do things their way. And the nanny-state way means higher taxes, minimum pricing, and plain packaging.
No more illiberal a set of policies could possibly be dreamed up, yet continuously, like clockwork, they are rolled out to control absolutely any product governments deem harmful. Canada need only look to Australia to see that plain packaging does more harm than good, fuelling a multi-billion dollar, global criminal trade in illegal tobacco, so serious that the US government have deemed it 'a threat to national security', but there's just no telling them otherwise.
Last week, the Canadian Senate Committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology began debating plain-packaging legislation on tobacco, and harsher regulation for vaping. Do we honestly expect sense to prevail? In all likelihood, within weeks, Canada will have rolled out the exact same legislation Australia has done, no doubt with equally devastating consequences.
Britain has emerged from the EU to join the world; sadly, as she is now discovering, in her absence the world has gone to hell in a handcart.

Tim Cook Ordered to Give Deposition in Employee-Poaching Ban Antitrust Case
Friday January 18, 2013 6:28 AM PST by Husain Sumra
Bloomberg is reporting that Apple CEO Tim Cook has been ordered by U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh to give a deposition in a lawsuit claiming that Apple and five other companies entered deals not to recruit each other's employees.
Koh told lawyers yesterday that Apple founder Steve Jobs was copied on e-mails at issue in the case, and that she found it "hard to believe" that Cook, as Apple's chief operating officer at the time in question, wouldn't have been consulted about such agreements.
The judge said she was disappointed that senior executives at the companies involved hadn't been deposed before yesterday's hearing over whether she should certify the case as a group lawsuit.
The case goes back to 2005 and alleges that Apple, Adobe, Pixar, Lucasfilm, Google, Intel and Intuit had agreements not to poach employees from the companies that were privy to the agreements. Employees were free to apply at jobs at any of the companies on their own volition, however.
The agreements were investigated in 2010 by the Justice Department and the claims were eventually settled, with the companies agreeing not to enter employee-poaching bans for five years.
The current lawsuit is a class-action civil suit by employees who say they were harmed by the anti-competitive actions of the companies within the agreement.
I don't really see the problem. This is just a head-hunting agreement. What's wrong about that, if the employees are still free to apply anywhere they want?
You've obviously never been recruited away by a competitor. When companies know that people are poaching their employees they pay better. If you as a company know you have nothing to worry about, you're less likely to give raises and large bonuses. Recruiters come with big raises for employees. It's not uncommon in my experience to see 30-50% raises being offered in tech. If Apple knew that wasn't going to happen they don't have to pay as well. That definitely hurts employees. It kills the free market.
If you don't see what's wrong with it, you have to learn a lot in life.
KdParker
Not sure why they would even enter into such an agreement. You want the best employees, and if you have someone that you don't want to leave, then treat them right.
iDuel
The judge should through them all out of the court room. What a stupid thing to sue about.
Than apple should just fire them all.
Well, it didn't take too long into this thread for a comment like this to pop up.
Cartaphilus
I don't think the government should be able to interfere in this way.
We've gotten so used to government inference everyone thinks its ok.
If the employees were able to apply on their own, what's the harm?
The government ALWAYS, as you characterize it, "interferes". In the U.S. the Department of Justice often determines in the first instance what activities constitute a violation of the antitrust laws, but the reason the government must always be involved is because individuals and companies must resort to government funded and staffed courts to resolve disputes. The government in the form of courts must decide which party should prevail and this can involve determining whether or not an agreement can be enforced or not, sometimes on the basis of whether that agreement is in keeping with the sort of society we want to have. For that reason, the government interferes when a bookie sues a gambler who has welshed on a bet by saying, in many states, that it will not allow its courts to be used to collect money from a wager that was illegal to have been made in the first place.
Here two companies have made a contract with each other that arguably affects the rights of an employee of one of the companies who had no involvement in the making of that contract, and who certainly did not consent to it. Assume that in the absence of that contract the other company would have attempted to recruit that employee by offering a 25% augmentation in salary. In effect, the contract has harmed the employee by arguably improperly removing the fair competition for his services that is the essence of capitalism.
So whether the Justice Department decides that the contract is a "combination in restraint of trade", or the employee decides that he has been harmed by illegal collusion to keep his compensation low, or whether one of the companies sues the other for breaching the contract by approaching the employee, the government is going to get involved.
The alternative, which existed in the distant past, and even today in some parts of the world, is that anyone who thinks he has been harmed by the acts of another gets his friends and relatives together and physically attacks whomever they think did them wrong. Long before governments were instituted among men to organize armies, coin money, or negotiate with other governments, people supported an authority to decide disputes among them. It is what separates us from barbarians.
Additionally, there are many reasons why an employee of Company A would not apply to Company B for a job, not the least of which is that if Company A learned about it, it might fire him to replace him with a more loyal employee it could count on not to defect to the competitor. Once you achieve a responsible role in an organization it is far more likely that you will be recruited to your next assignment than that you apply for it, and for that reason any limitation on recruiting deprives you of opportunity.
At the same time, though, there are situations where it is fair to prevent, for a reasonable period of time, one company from making offers of employment to the employees of another. Courts and governments generally are charged with making judgments about when particular circumstances justify enforcing or refusing to enforce a particular agreement.
In this particular case it appears that Apple contracted with a number of unrelated companies to avoid a hiring war where each company was raiding the employees of the other, setting off an expensive auction for employees with rare skills. It is certainly understandable that these companies would see some advantage to themselves in avoiding such a battle, but it is incontrovertible that another consequence is that the compensation of those with valuable and rare skills would not make as much as they would otherwise. The agreement, consequently, is a violation of the law of supply and demand since the demand has been artificially suppressed. In a free capitalist society we must always be vigilant to ensure that the competition that is the heart of our economy is not circumvented by collusion among competitors, and we entrust that duty to be vigilant to our government.

Editorial: Record crowds to visit Lansing this year
LSJ Editorial Board
Greater Lansing is on the tourism map, likely to draw a record number of visitors this year. That's terrific for a regional economy that benefits from some $472 million in tourism spending annually.
And this year, that number may be higher. As noted in today's Transforming Lansing section, the Greater Lansing Convention & Visitors Bureau expects booming business in 2015, benefiting from numerous conventions in the area, including several that are here for the first time. Other major events are returning this year.
Among the noteworthy gatherings:
•Odyssey of the Mind's international event brings about 20,000 people from 15 countries to the Michigan State University campus and surrounding area. This is the program's fourth finals event at MSU, and organizers pledge to come back because of the central location, proximity to an international airport and good working relationships with local contacts.
•The Boy Scouts Order of the Arrow, the organization's honor society, is hosting its 100th anniversary event at MSU and bringing about 15,000 visitors. They are here in part because of the on-campus accommodations the university can make available. Says Clyde Mayer, director of the National Order of the Arrow: "MSU is the only university in the country that can hold something that size."
•Other key bookings that could pay off in additional business: The Michigan Society of Association Executives and the Michigan Association of Convention and Visitors Bureaus will hold conventions in Lansing this year, both for the first time.
•Greater Lansing is rich in attractions, from its historic state Capitol building and Michigan Museum and Historical Center to the Broad Art Museum on the MSU campus. A large segment of local tourism revolves around sporting events, including exciting Big Ten basketball and football contests.
There are other gems as well. Potter Park Zoo is a well-regarded regional attraction. The ever-expanding Lansing River Trail has earned national attention. There are scores of regional events, from the Common Ground Music Festival to the East Lansing Art Festival and more.
Lansing boasts rich diversity in its economy. The region enjoys robust private sector industries in manufacturing, insurance and health care, complemented by state government and a major research university that increasingly flexes its muscle to the benefit of the state and local economy. As in the rest of the state, tourism is a healthy sector poised for additional growth. That should be cause for celebration.
An LSJ editorial
Success in convention bookings adds to Lansing's reputation as a destination.


I missed going to the Wales and West because someones naughty mare decided to foal 4 weeks early, at 10.30pm last night to be precise.
Aziza who is by Ariston out of the Simeon Sadik mare Sadika, belongs to Pat Hannay.
Get the cheque books out now!!! bet Pat keeps her!!!
Photos taken this morning at a few hours old.
Vervaldee certainly has left us with some beautiful babies, what a loss !
Pat you are a 'jammy dodger', 11th filly in a row!
Goodness Sue, only talking to Pat on friday evening about Izzy and she was saying that your vet reckoned she would have it within the week. Spot on!
but one question, why the rug on the foal?
Hi all - can't believe it's another filly - I was convinced this would be my first colt!!!! Now I will have the dilema of whether to keep her or sell her!!!!! Mustn't complain its probably a dilema you would all want!
Many thanks to Sue and John for foaling her down - I did manage to make it in time as I left the Wales & West show and went straight down to Devon - but I do feel really guilty that Sue couldn't make it to Wales & West because of Izzie as she wanted to see the yearling filly she had bred being shown!
Little babe is wearing a rug as she was abit shivery this morning (weather hasn't been too good has it!) and you must remember she was four weeks early!! Izzie foaled three weeks early as a maiden mare last year and we didn't know whether she would go to term this time or not - only got her down to Sue's last Tuesday just in the nick of time!!!!
Attached is a photo I took of her last night when she was about twenty minutes old - taken on my phone so the quality is not too good!! I am sure Sue will take lots more to post as she unfurls!!
Well what a lucky one you are !!!!!another filly and black as well.
I have just got back from seeing her and the photos really dont do her justice.She has the most excuisite head and gorgeous tippy ears.Also the smallest muzzle you can imagine.She is also quite tall for one born so early.I am sure Sue will get some more photos when she has caught up on her sleep. jane .
Well dont to Sire and Dam, lovely filly!
Huge congratulations Pat she is just gorgeous. My cheque book is out at ready but don't tell my Bank Manager.....you lucky thing she is fabulous.
Sorry Sue missed her filly at Wales and West but Fayth (AV Montoya x G Fantastica) bred by Sue and John, did her proud and me too - second in her class and she went beautifully I was thrilled.
We always give visiting horses pet names as I can never remember their real ones when they are here. Izzy is easy but still her name has morphed into 'Blackie'...... her baby is Dolly. China doll is all that comes into mind when I cuddle her!
I'll try to get some more pics very soon.
wow, stunning pat, many congrats!
not suprised though a stunning black filly!
we met at w&w, just wanted to say i love the halter i bought for my filly, she looks gorjus with it on!!
We only popped them out for a short time between the showers.


Actually, I don't really like Rum but lately I've been thinking about starting to drink a little more. Things around here have gotten, well, a tad overwhelming. Here's something I've learned: having a baby is sometimes hard; having a baby, an almost three-year-old and a five-year-old is sometimes hard; having a baby, an almost three-year-old, a five-year-old and a husband getting set to defend his dissertation, all the while working full-time, is always hard!
The holiday season seems to just bring so many things with it. There's decorating to do, presents to buy and wrap, cookies to bake, visits with Santa to set up and all the while the laundry piles up, cheerios mark the living room floor begging to be vacuumed up and new bills arrive daily that need to get paid. More and more I've been stressing over money. Normally I'm a big believe in everything will work itself out but at the same time we've been hit pretty hard this past year with medical bills, some expected and some unexpected, which have sucked up the little extra savings I had. Add to that now making a car payment for the first time in quite a few years, a pay freeze at work, school tuition and daycare for another child, not to mention the diapers and formula and things have gotten a lot tighter. A lot tighter.
One unexpected expense has been physical therapy for Sully's torticollis. And now, although his neck muscles are loosening, his head is not reshaping how it should and so he will be fitted for a helmet. The helmet is $3,200. I feel like waves of bills are just crashing in on me. Every time I come up for air a new wave comes crashing in. Hopefully this will be the end and the tide will go back out and we'll make it a few months without any new, big expenses.
Okay, so Sully doesn't look all that happy to be with Santa but trust me, he had a good time. QT was a little shy when it came time to sit with Santa so no pictures of her with Jolly Old St. Nick, but she did take a minute to tell Santa what she wanted when he got up and walked around. I guess I should be pleased that she's not willing to just sit on any old man's lap.


Gamification teams are comprised of key stakeholders, among them, creative types. Creative types not only understand the business objectives, but have a vision for the gamification program.
Producer: This person manages the process of designing and implementing your gamification program. She keeps people organized, facilitates communication, tracks the schedule, and so forth. There's a good chance that if you're reading this book, you're in the role of the producer.
Designer: This is the person who decides what the user experience will be, decides which gamification framework will be used, balances the system, etc. This may be the same person as the producer, but maybe not.
Graphic artist: Your team will be severely lacking without a good graphic artist on board. Why? Because many gamification programs rely heavily on visual elements, such as badges. Badges should be eye-catching works of art. Ergo, you need an artist. Most importantly, your visual elements should map to the look and feel of the digital environment that you're gamifiying.
Brand manager: This person understands and is responsible for maintaining the look and feel of a brand. You want him or her on your side as you develop your gamification program to make sure that what you come up with is in line with the brand being gamified.
Content developer: Yes, you could launch a gamification program without a content developer. But having one on your team, even if that person also fulfills another role (such as designer or brand manager), will help you develop the program — especially the text used in notifications, badge names, level names, and other messaging.
That person need not be a Writer with a capital W. Anyone with a knack for "structuring interesting word usements" (to paraphrase Steve Martin in the delightful 1991 film L.A. Story) will do.

Building Blocks of Music: Pitch, Rhythm, Tempo
<< Initial Concepts | Staff and Treble Clef >>
Music can be thought of as a series of sounds that range from high to low (pitch), are held for a proportionate amount of time compared to other sounds (rhythm) and flow at a certain speed (tempo).
In other words, music uses:
Pitch – is the sound high or low?
Rhythm – is the sound longer or shorter than other sounds?
Tempo – how quickly or slowly does the music move?
Let's explore each of these musical building blocks.
Pitch is the highness or lowness of a sound. We perceive the sound of a flute to be higher than the sound of a tuba.
Pitch is created from very fast vibrations moving through the air until the reach our ears and we hear them. People hear pitches that range from about 20 vibrations each second (or Hertz) to 20,000 Hertz. When we perceive a pitch to be higher, its number in Hertz (also called frequency) is higher; a low sounding pitch has a lower number in Hertz (frequency). So, the frequencies of pitches produced by the tuba are lower than the frequencies produced by the flute.
Noteworthy – Notice that the word pitch describes the highness or lowness of the sound that we hear (not what we write on paper to represent that sound). We hear a pitch; we read a note.
Greater Understanding – This online tone generator allows you to enter a frequency number and hear what it sounds like. Observe that when you enter a lower number you hear a sound that is lower and vice versa.
Rhythm refers to how long or short a sound is compared to other sounds in the piece of music. A sound may be twice as long, or half the length. It may be three times longer, or one third of the length.
An important aspect of rhythm is that it is proportional to the other sounds. Rhythm does not measure the length of a sound using an exact length of time, such as seconds. Instead, it measures length using a beat which can vary in length. Different note values are used to represent different numbers of beats, which tells a musician how long or short to play a note compared to the other notes in the piece of music.
The length of time for which a beat lasts depends on the tempo.
Tempo is how fast or slow the steady beat for a piece of music moves. The tempo determines how much time one beat receives. If the tempo is fast, then one beat receives less time. If the tempo is slow, then one beat receives more time.
Tempo is measured in beats per minute, so a tempo of 60 means that 1 beat is 1 second long. The following audio is a click track set at 60 beats per minute.
60 beats per minute
The click track below is at 100 beats per minute.
100 beats per minute
Notice that there are more beats in a minute for 100 compared to 60. This means that each beat takes less time at 100 compared to 60. We say that 100 beats per minute is a faster tempo than 60 beats per minute.
Note that regardless of the tempo, the proportion of note lengths (rhythm) remains the same. By measuring rhythm using a beat, musicians can change the length of the beat and still perform the same rhythm. When the length of the beat changes, we say that the tempo has changed.
The blue and green boxes below represent the same rhythm performed at different tempo. The rhythm in each case has 3 sounds, the first sound is twice as long as the last two. Notice that the blue boxes take more time overall (because the tempo is slower, meaning that the beat takes more time) than the green boxes. Also notice that both the blue and green boxes have the same rhythm or proportions of the sounds to each other (first one twice as long as the other two).
Musical notation allows us to communicate through a written musical language the pitch, rhythm and tempo that a musician should perform. Let's explore how that works!


1.1 This Code applies to the promotion of medicines to members of the United Kingdom health professions and to appropriate administrative staff.
The Code also applies to a number of areas which are non-promotional, including information made available to the public about prescription only medicines.
It does not apply to the promotion of over-the-counter medicines to members of the health professions when the object of that promotion is to encourage their purchase by members of the public.
1.2 The term 'promotion' means any activity undertaken by a pharmaceutical company or with its authority which promotes the administration, consumption, prescription, purchase, recommendation, sale, supply or use of its medicines.
all other sales promotion in whatever form, such as participation in exhibitions, the use of audio or video recordings in any format, broadcast media, non-print media, the Internet, interactive data systems and the like.
information relating to human health or diseases provided there is no reference, either direct or indirect, to specific medicines.
1.3 The term 'medicine' means any branded or unbranded medicine intended for use in humans which requires a marketing authorization.
1.4 The term 'health professional' includes members of the medical, dental, pharmacy and nursing professions and any other persons who in the course of their professional activities may administer, prescribe, purchase, recommend or supply a medicine.
1.5 The term 'over-the-counter medicine' means those medicines or particular packs of medicines which are primarily advertised to the public for use in self medication.
1.6 The term 'representative' means a representative calling on members of the health professions and administrative staff in relation to the promotion of medicines.
1.7 The term 'promotional aid' means a non-monetary gift made for a promotional purpose.
1.8 The term 'transfer of value' means a direct or indirect transfer of value, whether in cash, in kind or otherwise, made, whether for promotional purposes or otherwise, in connection with the development or sale of medicines. A direct transfer of value is one made directly by a company for the benefit of a recipient. An indirect transfer of value is one made by a third party on behalf of a company for the benefit of a recipient where the identity of the company is known to, or can be identified by, the recipient.
1.9 Pharmaceutical companies must comply with all applicable codes, laws and regulations to which they are subject.
1.10 Each company must appoint a senior employee to be responsible for ensuring that the company meets the requirements of the Code.
For the purposes of the application of the Code, the United Kingdom includes the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
The Code applies to the promotion of medicines to members of the health professions and to appropriate administrative staff as specified in Clause 1.1. This includes promotion at meetings for UK residents held outside the UK. It also applies to promotion to UK health professionals and administrative staff at international meetings held outside the UK, except that the promotional material distributed at such meetings will need to comply with local requirements.
Some of the requirements of the Code are not necessarily related to promotion. Examples include declarations of sponsorship in Clause 9.10, clinical trials and noninterventional studies in Clause 13, certain aspects of the provision of medicines and samples in Clause 17, donations, grants and fees for services in Clauses 18.6 and 18.7, the use of consultants in Clause 20, the provision of information to the public in Clause 23 and relations with patient organisations in Clause 24.
The Code does not apply to the promotion of over-the-counter medicines to members of the health professions when the object of that promotion is to encourage their purchase by members of the public as specified in Clause 1.1. Thus, for example, an advertisement to doctors for an over-the-counter medicine does not come within the scope of the Code if its purpose is to encourage doctors to recommend the purchase of the medicine by patients. Where the advertisement is designed to encourage doctors to prescribe the medicine, then it comes within the scope of the Code.
Advertisements for over-the-counter medicines to pharmacists are outside the scope of the Code. Advertisements to pharmacists for other medicines come within the scope of the Code.
Activities which are designed to enlarge the market in a particular therapeutic area, such as disease awareness campaigns, are permitted, provided that these are carried out in a manner compatible with the Code.
Joint working with the NHS and others is permitted if carried out in a manner compatible with the Code.
Joint working is where, for the benefit of patients, one or more pharmaceutical companies and the NHS pool skills, experience and/or resources for the joint development and implementation of patient centred projects and share a commitment to successful delivery.
The Department of Health has issued to the NHS Best practice guidance on joint working between the NHS and pharmaceutical industry and other relevant commercial organisations. A toolkit, Moving beyond sponsorship: joint working between the NHS and the pharmaceutical industry has been issued by the Department of Health and the ABPI. The ABPI has produced guidance notes on joint working between pharmaceutical companies and the NHS and others for the benefit of patients.
The conduct of joint working is dealt with in Clause 18.5 and its supplementary information.
The Code applies to the advertising of medicines in professional journals which are produced in the UK and/or intended for a UK audience. The identification of the country in which a journal is 'produced' is based on factors such as where it is compiled and edited, and where it is typeset, printed and bound, rather than on factors such as the location of the head office of the publisher.
International journals which are produced in English in the UK are subject to the Code even if only a small proportion of their circulation is to a UK audience. It is helpful in these circumstances to indicate that the information in the advertisement is consistent with the UK marketing authorization.
It should be noted that the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency's guidance 'Advertising and Promotion of Medicines in the UK', The Blue Guide, differs from the above by advising that advertising material in professional journals intended primarily for circulation in the UK, whether or not in the English language, must comply with UK legislation and with the UK marketing authorization for the product.
Where a journal is produced in the UK but intended for distribution solely to overseas countries, local requirements and/or the requirements of the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and Associations' (IFPMA) Code of Practice should be borne in mind.
The promotion of medicines to the public for self medication is covered by the Consumer Code of the Proprietary Association of Great Britain (PAGB) (www.pagb.co.uk). The PAGB also has a Professional Code which applies to advertising involving over-the-counter medicines aimed wholly or mainly at persons qualified to prescribe or supply and appropriate administrative staff, where the object of the advertising is to influence sales and/or recommendations to the public.
The provisions of the Code apply in their entirety to the promotion of medicines to appropriate administrative staff except where the text indicates otherwise. For example, the prescribing information required under Clause 4 must be included in promotional material provided to administrative staff but it is not permissible to provide samples of medicines to them as this is proscribed by Clause 17.1.
Particular attention is drawn to the provisions of Clause 11.1 and the supplementary information to that clause, which concern the appropriateness of promotional material to those to whom it is addressed.
The exemption for replies made in response to individual enquiries from members of the health professions or appropriate administrative staff relates to unsolicited enquiries only. An unsolicited enquiry is one without any prompting from the company. In answering an unsolicited enquiry a company can offer to provide further information. If the enquirer subsequently requests additional information this can be provided and would be exempt from the Code provided the additional information met the requirements of the exemption. A solicited enquiry would be one where a company invites a person to make a request. For example, material offering further information to readers would be soliciting a request for that information. Placing documents on exhibition stands amounts to an invitation to take them. Neither can take the benefit of this exemption.
Replies intended for use in response to enquiries which are received on a regular basis may be drafted in advance provided that they are used only when they directly and solely relate to the particular enquiry. Documents must not have the appearance of promotional material.
Price lists of unlicensed medicines which include no product claims and make clear that the products are unlicensed can be sent to health professionals and appropriate administrative staff at reasonable intervals or in response to enquiries. They must not be used proactively in a manner which could be seen to be promoting unlicensed medicines, such as by displaying them on exhibition stands.
'Medical representatives' and 'generic sales representatives' are distinguished in the supplementary information to Clause 16.3 relating to examinations for representatives.
subsistence provided to health professionals in accordance with Clause 19.1.
Pharmaceutical companies must ensure that they comply with all applicable codes, laws and regulations to which they are subject. This is particularly relevant when activities/materials involve more than one country or when a pharmaceutical company based in one country is involved in activities in another country.
Activities carried out and materials used by a pharmaceutical company located in a European country must comply with the national code of that European country as well as the national code of the country in which the activities take place or the materials are used.
Activities carried out and materials used in a European country by a pharmaceutical company located in a country other than a European country must comply with the EFPIA Code as well as the national code of the country in which the activities are carried out and materials are used.
For example a company located in the UK carrying out an activity outside the UK but within Europe, such as in France, must comply with the UK Code and the French Code regardless of whether or not UK health professionals or appropriate administrative staff are involved. Conversely a company located in France carrying out an activity in the UK must comply with the ABPI Code regardless of whether or not UK health professionals or appropriate administrative staff are involved. Details of the various codes can be found at www.efpia.eu or www.ifpma.org.
By 'company' is meant any legal entity that organises or sponsors promotion which takes place within Europe, whether such entity be a parent company (eg the headquarters, principal office, or controlling company of a commercial enterprise), subsidiary company or any other form of enterprise or organisation.
In the event of a conflict of requirements the more restrictive requirements would apply.
All international events, that is to say events that take place outside the responsible pharmaceutical company's home country, must be notified in advance to any relevant local subsidiary or local advice taken.
Companies must take reasonable steps to ensure that any other parties that they commission to design, implement or engage in activities covered by the Code but which do not act on behalf of the company, and are therefore not covered by Clause 1.2, for example joint ventures or licensees, comply with the Code.
There is an assumption that the responsible person is the managing director or chief executive or equivalent unless other formal arrangements have been made within the company.

"Tips for Avoiding Tire Violations" is the handout (2016) International Roadcheck. See it interpreted here!
Hi there smart drivers, Rick with Smart Drive Test talking to you today about tires and the annual safety blitz on the part of the CVSA—the Commercial Vehicle Safety Association [Alliance]—Mexico, the United States, and Canada have an annual safety blitz this year. It's happening between the 7th and 9th of June. It's a three day -seventy two-hour blitz. This year, it's focusing on tires. A few days ago I did a video on tires that got a great deal of attention, so I went on the CVSA's Facebook page and found the hand that there providing to the public and I thought I could go through that handout with you and provide a bit more information than what's on the handout just to give you some clarification of how to check your tires because that's the focus of CVSA's annual safety blitz this year. And we'll just give you a bit more information than what's on the handout. Just to make sure that if you do get pulled into the blitz, or you're out driving on that day, you won't get a fine.
The handout for the CVSA' the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance' annual blitz this year happening between the 7th and 9th of June 2016.
Don't Fail Your Pre-Trip Inspection Test…Buy the Course!
A FAST course for CDL Drivers learning their pre-trip inspection.
multiple choice questions that will test your understanding of terminology.
You need three millimeters of tread or one-eighth of an inch on front steer tires. You also need one sixteenth of an inch on rear tires or 1.6 millimeters. That is the requirements for tread depth on the tires. Now I'll get into it a little bit later, because down in points here, farther you, have to have the tread depth also matching across the axle and between the sets of duals on the back of your tractor or bus.
As you can see here on the handout, keep your vehicle suspension in alignment is not really the part of the driver, that is a maintenance policy on the part of the company, unless you're an owner operator and have your own truck. Vehicle or vehicle wheel alignment is the policy of the maintenance shop and they're going to do that. Your job is to notice irregular wear and point out and fill out the appropriate maintenance documents.
This is essentially maintaining the inflation of the tires. You might want to get a tire gauge and just check the tires on your vehicle. Most big trucks need to be greased every couple of weeks. During the greasing it takes about 10 minutes to go around and check the tire pressure on all the tires. The maintenance personnel, or whoever does that to your truck or you do it yourself - it takes about 10 minutes. Some of the tires may need some air pressure or whatnot. They do say in the handout, that most these tires—just by sitting or being used—will lose about three pounds every month just from sitting.
Again this is not really the responsibility of the driver. This is the responsibility of the tire shop, the maintenance shop, or the people who purchase the tires for your trucks and units. 22.5s & 24s are the most common on road tractors. There may be some other different types of tires depending on what the use of the truck is - gravel trucks, cement trucks, those types of things will have different kinds of tires. What you need to know, as the driver, is that you are in compliance with the axle weights of that vehicle. In the United States it's 12,000 pounds on the steer axles, 34,000 on tandem-tandem. Most of the States in the United States run tandem-tandem and that's all they're allowed. Michigan and a couple other states have other weight allowances and if you're running multi axle trailers in Michigan and other States you're going to know what the weights are or ask your dispatcher, or ask safety to look that up for you so you know what the weight rating is. In Canada, steer axles are 5,500 kilograms, tandem axles are 17,000 kilograms, and triple axles are 23,000 kilograms in every province except British Columbia, which allows you 24,000 kilograms. You need to know that you're in the weight specifications. If you have any questions or any doubts about the tire specifications and they're going to hold up that amount of weight then you need to question the safety department, the maintenance shop, and those types of people. Those questions need to go to other people in the trucking company.
There isn't much that it says on here about air pressure other than running tires on low air pressure is gonna increase the heat, it's decreased the wear and tear & the life of the tire. So air pressure - know that they need to be above a hundred pounds per square inch - most of the time there between 100 and 110 pounds per square inch.
I did not understand this! It says: "for every size that a tread width is undersized from the recommended width, mileage is reduced by 10%."
I did leave a comment on the CVSA's Facebook page and I'll put a link down in the comment there. They didn't get back to me and I don't think that they probably will!?! I just get a suspicion that they're not gonna get back to me on that point. I didn't understand it and because it's just a statistic, I don't think it's relevant to anything that drivers would need to know in terms of the annual safety blitz.
Tread depth must match across the axle, side to side and the duels on the back of the truck within 4/32 seconds of an inch as it says on the handout. one-eighth of an inch - nobody reduced down 4/32 seconds of an inch. One-eighth of an inch or three millimeters for those of you in Canada and using the metric system. So across the axle, tire-to-tire must match within 1/8 of an inch on tread depth and across the four duals on the tandem tandem or triple axels if you're in Canada.
What they're looking here for is tire size. The tire size on tandem axles in duels must match within a quarter of an inch on the diameter. So the diameter of the tire and the rim - they're measuring from the center of the hub to the top of the tire and this has to match within a quarter of an inch. Or they're going to measure the circumference of the tire and it has to be three quarters of an inch - It has to match within three-quarters of an inch. They probably take the tire size or measure the diameter and from the diameter there's a formula that they can figure out the circumference. So it a quarter inch on diameter, three-quarters of an inch in circumference and that is something very specific that really drivers don't need to worry about. You can look at a tire and know whether it's going to match or not. They have to be the same size. Often times they have to be the same make as well in order for them to match.
So those of the subheadings on the handout for the CVSA. So that gives you some further information on the CVSA handout provided for the annual safety blitz that's happening between June 7 and 9, 2016.
• CDL Drivers are the only sector that has its own police force.
• There is a lot of paperwork you must produce at the weigh scale.
• Bring all paperwork in one hit & impress the diesel bears!
don't get fined :: GET YOUR CHECKLIST!!
For new drivers and those that haven't been pulled into weigh scale before, the paperwork that you need to take into authorities is extensive. It's ownership for the truck, and the trailer, your license, your logbook, pre-trip inspection form, bills of lading, MVI reports (Motor-Vehicle Inspection), and pre-trip reports. For new drivers, it can be somewhat overwhelming. It will give you all the paperwork that you need to take into authorities. And if you take the paperwork in in one hit it makes you look organized. If you look organized, it raises less suspicions on the part of the authorities because if your paperwork is organized probably your trucks organized as well. That's the thinking in their minds. Remember so much of life is about cosmetics!

Webcast: Implication of Minsk Lies—Erosion of International Law, Loss of Trust
January 4, 2023by David Dobrodt in General
In her weekly webcast today, Helga Zepp LaRouche ridiculed the anti-Russian narratives of NATO leaders, pointing to the broad implications of the admissions, by former German Chancellor Merkel and ex-President of France Hollande, that they never intended to fulfill the agreements they signed in Minsk. They were not just lying, she said — they were violating international law. These are the same people who speak incessantly about the "Rules-Based Order." She said that these admissions led Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov to announce that there is no longer anyone in the EU with whom to negotiate.
In contrast, leaders in the Global South are moving ahead with plans to build an alternative to the neo-colonial Unipolar Order. She cited a Chinese intellectual who said that rather than being in a period of "epochal change", it is more properly a moment of "de-westernization."
This moment requires a "higher level of thinking," which she introduced with her Ten Principles, in which the principle of "One Humanity First" must be the starting point. Reflecting the "divine nature of human beings", this new era can establish humans as a "species of poetry, science and composers."

We arrive at Trolanport the next evening, a full day behind our adversaries. We arrived at the Bloody Badger as evening falls. The inn is mid to low class, though not as bad as the docks. Its a quiet crowd, working class folks, mostly gnomes but with a fair mix of other races. Jemma recognizes someone she knows, an acquaintance from long ago, named Aribel Zwindig, but she doesn't approach as the rest of the gang wants to keep to themselves. We sit and order beer and a spicy fish stew that pairs well with the beer. The inn keeper does not plan well for Pixie appetites and produces a full size bowl of soup and mug of beer for Bree. Cillian gets very excited as he is led to the stables by a young man. Jemma attempts to reach out to him to confirm there is no danger, but he is just excited about all the newness. Cord graciously offers the pay the 1g for dinner and the evenings lodgings. He also sets on the table the symbol that will alert our handler of our presence
As the party sits to eat, a mysterious Gnome comes to sit with us. Jemma's attempts at friendship are rebuffed; he doesn't want to trade names, for fear of discovery. Wraith describes the people we are seeking, asking the gnome to search for information regarding Lucan and Grelsha. The group asks if he has seen/heard anything unusual or interesting. He has not heard of anything. Additionally we asked him to seek Krell. The contact promises to return the next night with information. If the situation is too hot, he will leave a red sealed letter for us with the information.
The group goes there separate ways, Bree and De to crash in their respective bunks. Cord decides to do the same. Wraith goes out to play with Cillian. Jemma decides to reach out to the fellow Gnome she once knew (Aribel). They discuss where they are in their lives and that Aribel is just passing through on company/family business. She does share that there were a number of parties going on in the next few days, including the Aundarian Ambassador who is giving a lavish exclusive party in two days.
The next morning finds everyone downstairs. Most, except Bree, none the worst for ware. De decides to mentally tease her for her overindulgence and gets a little too close, sharing her suffering. Jemma shares what she learned from Aribel. Cord had some knowledge in regards to this ambassador and managed to put together that "Krell" is the Aundarian ambassador to Zilargo, Neya ir'Krell. He has never met her but knows this ambassador has been stationed in the area for awhile.
It was decided we would make various attempts at entry into the party. Cord decides to flex some diplomatic muscle, using his relationship with Bree to gain entry, although not in any official capacity. Xuan-de decides that he is going to try to get a job as a porter for the party, but something about his mannerisms puts off the potential employers and they decline his inquiry. Wraith searches Trolanport for people invited to the party. Finding potential marks at a local hunting organization, Wraith decides to follow a group of local ladies to a high-end dress shop where she subtly poisons one of the ladies. Planning to infiltrate the party under the guise of this woman, Wraith swipes the invitation under the guise of Ellisar Irithyl, a servant of the lady. Bree finds where the musicians are hanging out after their jobs and gets in as entertainment for the party. While interacting with this group she learns that the entertainers are all agents of the House of Thuranni. This is problematic for the team as they are masters of espionage. And Ambassador ir'Krell most likely knows it. Jemmabeth talks to some of her colleagues and is able to gain an invitation; though she could not prevent a particular blabber-mouth from overhearing the conversation. By the end of the day, rumors are flying that someone will attempt to crash the party that night.
De, unable to obtain an invitation to the party, decides to spend his time moving around upper class bars looking for information, and someone with the curious double-mind he encountered with Lucan previously. He is not particularly successful. He does learn that Lucan has been in Trolenport before, in an official capacity, and several people know him as an agent of the King's Swords. There is a rumor that he was seen entering the city by the North gate, riding Phantom steeds.
When the group returns from obtaining their various invitations, they find a packet from their informant waiting for them. The informant found pretty much the same information as they had, with the following additions: the party is a masquerade ball and attendance is by invitation, very exclusive invitation, only; the regular party-going crowd has not been invited and the dress code is very strict: there will be no weapons or armor allowed. The estate is not large, though the house itself is a good size, and is completely walled. There is also an invitation, which allows Xuan-de access to the party with the group. Bree also shares what she learned about House Thuranni entertaining the guests.
The party spends a pretty gold coin, or 12, on their attire for the evening and makes its way to the party. They take up their places, mingling with the crowd to see who they can see and learn what they can learn. Cord meets an associate (NPC) named Daen Zenden (Main Diplomatic Connection to Aundair) and they discuss the state of their various lives. Daen suggests that Cord switch to serving drinks to get a better view of the crowd. He also points out Neya ir'Krell about the same time that Jemma discovers her identity. They both start to mingle around their hostess where they catch her dancing with one someone who seems vaguely familiar. Bree mentally calls Xuan-de to have him perform a mental scan to see if he can detect the dual persona he had noticed previously with Lucan. He has been unsuccessful so far, but now that he has a target he is able to detect the same mentality. Unfortunately, when Xuan-de pressed into this persons mind, he was also discovered.
Lucan pushed De towards the stairs and asks probing questions. De tries to deflect, but has no option other than to confess that he also works for Breeland, as Lucan used to do. He reaches out mentally to let the rest of the group know he has found Lucan. Again, Lucan somehow knows what De has done and makes statement about De not being alone. Lucan confesses that he did not choose the path he is on; however, there is no way for him to turn from it. De and Lucan converse on how to prevent Grelsha from getting hurt. Lucan expresses that her mind will not be changed and there is no way to protect her. De pushes Lucan further, asking if his mind is his own. This apparently is too much for Lucan, who draws a black blade from his glove.

Tamil Nadu retains investment destination tag in 2022
Chennai: Often billed as a favoured investment destination, Tamil Nadu managed to garner over Rs 1 lakh crore investments committed by various companies in 2022, a year that brought both challenges and opportunities to the southern state. It faced the challenge arising out of various issues like Russia-Ukraine conflict or the suspension of the production at US automaker Ford near here among others.
This year, Tamil Nadu signed memoranda of understanding with over 60 companies which committed investments of Rs 1.25 lakh crore that would generate around 75,000 new jobs.
Chief Minister M K Stalin has been reaching out to investors at various platforms to make Tamil Nadu become the most attractive investment destination in South Asia and endeavour towards 'Made in Tamil Nadu' products reaching all parts of the world.
The government also maintained Tamil Nadu was the only state in the country to post a 'positive growth' during Covid-19 enforced lockdown period while other states reported negative growth.
According to the Industry department, TN is the second largest state economy in India accounting for 9.47 per cent of the GDP in FY 2020-21. In 2021-22, the economy saw a rebound with the Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) increasing from Rs 19.02 lakh crore to Rs 21.79 crore.
The government, besides its many policy initiatives, announced establishing the Rs 20,000 crore greenfield airport at Parandur with an aim to give a fillip to the state's economy. It can handle an annual capacity of 10 crore passengers. The airport expected to be operational by 2029-30 would have two runways, terminal building, taxiways, apron, cargo terminal and other required amenities. To reach the ambitious $1 trillion economy by FY 2030-31, the government has drawn up several plans which include attracting Rs 23 lakh crore investments in the manufacturing sector and creation of 46 lakh new jobs.
To achieve the $1 trillion economy, the manufacturing sector must take the centre stage for economic development, an official said. Tamil Nadu is a manufacturing hub in the country due to significant presence in sectors like automobiles and auto-components including electric vehicles, textiles and wearing apparel, leather, chemicals including rubber and plastic, electronics, machinery and fabricated metal products, the official said.
On the exports front Tamil Nadu accounted for 8.40 per cent of the country's total exports with Rs 1.90 lakh crore of shipment made overseas.
The Guidance Bureau, a nodal agency to boost investments promotion in the state, has been enhancing the single window portal to provide a seamless experience for investors. The government has been working on new policies including life sciences promotion policy, research and development, leather and footwear policy and also upgrading the existing electric vehicle policy to accelerate the growth of these sectors.
Some of the major projects ensured by the government include the large scale furniture park, one of its kind, which is expected to come up in SIPCOT industrial park in Tuticorin at an estimate of Rs 1,000 crore. Another investment milestone achieved in 2022 was the Rs 3,500 crore investment commitment from Dubai-based Lulu Group.
An E-vehicle park and future mobility park are also on the development stage with SIPCOT establishing the former in over 300 acres of land in Manallur at an investment of Rs 167.30 crore, the official said.
To support environmentally, sustainable and modern transportation solutions, SIPCOT also planned to establish a Future Mobility Park on a 300 acre land in Shoolagiri, Krishnagiri district at an outlay of Rs 300 crore.

24 star Annie Wersching dies aged 45 after cancer battle – Star Local Media


Celeste Carballo recorded her first release in 1982.
Celeste was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and she is the first woman to edit a Rock and Roll record that went gold soon after it was released. She became representative of the people's feelings and her songs became hymns of freedom. She sings about things that the people of Argentina could relate to, about living in the country, and about being alone for the first time, and she does it in their own language.
Spreading her love for life in her lyrics and melodies she became a favorite of the people since she is part of the people. Celeste doesn't comply with the stereotypes of what a "female star" should be at the time: her sincerity and the humble nature with which she handled the press and her public, soon are part of the trademark of her career.
She irradiates a love for life and a passion for her work that is hard to ignore egardless of the style of music she is playing. Her voice is powerful and she uses it with little reluctance.
After her first release entitled "Me vuelvo cada día más loca", CELESTE toured "through" Europe and South America opening for and performing with international legends, Bob Dylan and Santana.
After a successful tour and with "Me vuelvo cada día más loca" leading the charts, CELESTE decided to try a new music style. With her new band she dominated the punk scene in Buenos Aires at the middle of the '80.
She recorded the mithical "Celeste y la Generación", with the biggest rock star musician in Argentina, Charly García as a Producer.
In 1992 she reunited with Bob Dylan in Argentina once again. This time she opened his concert at Obras Stadium, in Buenos Aires city.
Her recording "Chocolate Inglés" , released in 1993, won an ACE award as "best record of the year". CELESTE received a distinction by ACE (Argentinean Entrepreneurs Association) alongside many other big names in the history of Argentinean music.
In 1993 Celeste was invited to sing with Peter Gabriel, replacing Sinead O'Connor, during his "Secret World Tour ". They did a duet singing "Blood of Even ", "Don't give up ", "Biko" ,"In your Eyes ".
It was at Velez a popular soccer stadium for concerts, 40.000 people avationed her all night feeling proud of their Argentine fellow country singer woman. The press highlighted Celeste's participation in every show with Gabriel.
In 1995, CELESTE received the Platinum Konex price as the best female singer. Again this was the first time a female rock singer was bestowed such an honor. From Blues to Punk and to Tango,Celeste´s continued hard work and dedication to the art .-After finishing a six year contract with BMG Company, she recorded her first indie label album named "LIVE AT THE ROXY". This recording, made in Buenos Aires (1995), was an Janis Joplin tribute. Celeste played in her electric guitar those original arrangement for the Joplin's songs, and she contribute also with her voice & spirit .
In 1997, her second indie label album appeared, "TERCER INFINITO", including two songs from the "Inn trouble" film, "Like a dream" and "Que pasó con Louise Blue". She played this recording with Federico Gil Solá in drumms, the former drummer for one of the biggest rock bands in Argentina calling Divididos.
Since her first appearance in 1982 until now, she has been a representative icon for the popular Argentinean music, like MERCEDES SOSA is for the folklore or CHARLY GARCIA for the Rock. She's strong reference for the rock'n roll scene too, which has 30 years of history and tradition in Argentina.
Her Tango cd Celos 2008 , won Gardel Award .
Now a days she's working in Mujer de Piedra her new rock & blues recording . 2011 .
