Nick is the CEO of N&A Commercial Cleaning Company, president of the West Orlando Rotary Club, board member of the Traveling Unicorn, an active member of the Chamber of Commerce, blah blah blah. The point is, he is extremely accomplished for being 24 and we are all jealous (but happy and inspired by him at the same time). Nick is killing the game with his peers being twice his age. When he was named CEO in 2012, he was 21, the company took a bold move and stepped away form a larger corporation's umbrella and went solo. Naturally, revenue suffered dramatically making 2013 a very rough year. But such a bold move paid off, with an astronomical revenue increase of 47% in the last two years, and with numbers still on the rise... Millennial entrepreneurs for the win!
Being a young leader in a world full of, um… older folks, was not without its challenges and criticism. For instance, when Nick was named President of the West Orlando Rotary Club, many 'boomers' had a fit! There was a lot of smack said and major shade thrown his way. There was even an instance when a member withdrew his membership because "he did not want to work under some kid." The hate was real! Two years later, the 'boomers' have nothing but praise for Nick. He has turned the club around and made it what it is today.
TU: What is it like working with people a lot older than you, their children and you share the same age?
NM: To me, it is a very natural thing to socialize and network with older folks because my dad took me to networking events since I was 16. My social etiquette and business mindset has been molded by such interactions.
Here is the thing, I see business through their eyes, my own and through the eyes of my generation and I think it gives me a unique perspective of business itself. Plus, I believe that growing up playing basketball has greatly shaped my leadership skills.
TU: What was your motivation for joining the Traveling Unicorn?
NM: I think it is a great model for everyone- to unite for a cause that is for the greater good. To me, that is what the Traveling Unicorn exemplifies- combining old people and young people of diverse backgrounds to come together for the greater good, for humanity.
TU: Why do you believe in the Traveling Unicorn?
NM: I believe in the Traveling Unicorn because it combines working alongside your friends to do something you love and changing the world. Why wouldn't you want to be a part of that?

Ayers Saint Gross joined the National Aquarium to launch a prototype for a new floating wetland that supports stronger wildlife habitats in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. Following the success of the initiative, the team shared this new technology with clients, potential clients, ecologists, and the general public through a pop-up brochure. To bring the floating wetland to life, the graphic design team utilized a custom die cut and a z-fold to transform a standard flat sheet into a desktop-sized wetland for display. Custom illustrations feature the flora and fauna of a thriving ecosystem, "popped" out above the horizon created by the folds. Expanded, the brochure transforms into a poster revealing the complex wetland apparatus design below the water's surface, distilled for the reader. The end deliverable was wrapped with a belly band serving as both the packaging and the pop-up instructions.


Although less than one percent of employers offer unlimited paid vacation time, that doesn't always feel like the case in the perk-heavy atmosphere of Silicon Valley startups.
A bias against vacation time: Americans are vacation-averse to begin with. 56 percent haven't taken a vacation in a year, the average American employee only takes half of their days off, and 61 percent report working during vacations.
Decision fatigue: Because an unlimited vacation policy isn't explicit about how many days off someone should take, we're all mentally weighing each day and how it makes us look to others. That takes a lot of mental energy — so much so that we might end up choosing nothing.
Evernote — Buffer's vacation inspiration — isn't the only company offering a vacation stipend to encourage time off.
FullContact now offers what they call "paid PAID vacation" to its employees. Once a year, each staff member gets $7,500 to go away. The cash comes with three stipulations: Employees have to really take a vacation, they must completely disconnect from technology and they aren't allowed to work while away.
Getting a cash bonus for taking a vacation is nice — like, incredibly, miraculously nice.

Update from the Board of Regents
On University of Minnesota
As we prepare to change horses in mid-stream a blanket email was sent today to to the community:
"The search for the next president of the University of Minnesota is moving forward as planned. The Presidential Search Advisory Committee is continuing its work to identify candidates and conduct initial interviews so that in the near future the committee can forward a number of highly qualified semi-finalists to the Board of Regents for its consideration."
"The process continues on a path toward the election of a new president by the end of the calendar year. All finalists, defined by state law as candidates who will be interviewed by the appointing authority (the Board of Regents), will visit campus for a public interview with the Board and a series of meetings, including a public forum, with University constituencies."
As opposed to the way this search was conducted last time - in secret - this is an improved process. It will be interesting to see the caliber of candidates who have applied for this position. The last search was very disappointing. Any internal candidates should be subjected to very close scrutiny, especially if they have been participants in the present administration.
The opportunity to question these candidates in an open forum should be taken seriously. A vision for change and a return to our land grant priorities is essential. A re-affirmation of the principles of academic freedom, rather than the recent example of censorship, is to be expected.
As the Star-Tribune put it:
"That the U so clumsily stood in the way of its [Troubled Waters] release is stunning. The retiring Bruininks needs to move quickly to prevent future censorship. A broad commitment to academic freedom should be on the top of the list for qualities sought in his successor."
Censorship Blights U's Reputation

A cafetiere or French Press is one of the easiest ways to brew coffee and because of that it is my personal favourite for making the first cup of the day; simplicity is important when you've just woken up and are still bleary eyed.
As well as being simple, this method also produces really tasty coffee. All of the oils are left in the coffee which means you get all of the flavour and goodness.
An award winning coffee with notes of a juicy, complex flavour and notes of nectarine, magnolia, and intense honey sweetness.
Mango, rhubarb, blood orange. An apple-like acidity leads to a fudgey finish.

Q: generate 3D cubic lattice with different atoms in alternate site I was wondering how to create a 3D cubic lattice and vizualize with A and B atoms in alternate sites?
Regards

A: Straight Outta help:
b = Normal@LatticeData["SimpleCubic", "Basis"];
l2 = Tuples[Range[0, 5], 3].b;
Graphics3D[{{Red, Green}[[Mod[Tr@#, 2, 1]]], Sphere[#, .2]} & /@ l2]

A: You could generate the coordinates as a list, in the "XYZ" format, and then read it in as such, at which point Mathematica will create a molecular model for you:
coords = Flatten[
   Table[
    {If[
      OddQ@Total@{x, y, z}
      , "Na", "Cl"], x bondlength, y bondlength, z bondlength},
    {x, 6},
    {y, 6},
    {z, 6}], 2];
ImportString[
 ExportString[
  coords, "Table"], "XYZ"]

Then you create an XYZ file as a string and read it in,
ImportString[
 ExportString[
  coords, "Table"], "XYZ"]

Hot summer days call for cool food! Try one of these summer salads–perfect to pack up and take with you on your summer adventures.
Summer swim team has started, which means lots of eating on the run–either out at away meets or spending hours at the home pool.
Rather than spend lots of money at snack bars and overdo it on unhealthy foods, the kids and I searched on Pinterest for some new-to-us cold salad recipes that we can prep in the morning and pack to take for dinner.
We love our old standby, the Spinach & Feta Pasta Salad, but we're eager to try something new. These Super Summer Salads look great!
The sweet & sour dressing soaks in when you chill this salad ahead of time, so make it the night before or early in the morning for a crunchy, delicious dinner by the pool.
This has all the flavors my kids love–chickpeas, cucumbers and salty feta cheese, with a light homemade dressing to pull it all together. Yum!
So simple, and with kid-favorite green beans plus garden tomatoes and orzo pasta. This would be good both warm and cold. Can't wait to try it!
Love the pizzazz of the dressing, made with almond milk and apple cider vinegar. If you have leftover grilled chicken, put a few slices on top for protein.
You had me at bacon. This chop salad also includes lettuce, arugula, corn and avocado–a fabulous medley of flavors–with a simple olive oil & lime dressing.
Quinoa is a nice change from pasta in salads, and we love how it soaks up the homemade dressing. It's also a great source of protein!
For more easy family meals, read Get Dinner on the Table FAST. I also have more delicious salad recipes pinned to my Salads & Veggie Sides Pinterest Board.
Super Summer Salads is linked up to Pinterest Foodie at Real: The Kitchen and Beyond and Fluster's Creative Muster Party at Fluster Buster.
This is a wonderful selection for summer! I am one huge fan of salads because it quickly becomes too hot to turn on the oven.
OH my gosh those look AMAZING!! Thank you for sharing them. Now- to get them made… STAT. Each one sounds delicious.
I made the "summer broccoli" salad tonight, and oh my it was so yummy! A new favorite for sure! Thanks for sharing! I'll be sure to try some of the others as well.

After the fort, I wandered around the rest of the archaeological site taking in the different parts. They were all posted with a good description in several languages.
After a bit over an hour visiting Byblos, and having a an espresso at a cafe which had wifi, it was time to make plans from there. The driver strongly suggested on the way back towards Beirut we stop in Jounieh to ride the cable car to the top of the mountain to get a view down over the city. Who am I to argue with a funicular! Managed to get my own car for the ride to the top (once again my driver waited at the bottom) and up I went…having no idea what was at the top!
More hummus! Yum! I forget what the meat on top was, but as a combo it was really rather tasty. I also had a bit more grilled Halloumi cheese which somehow didn't make it into the picture, but was quite tasty.
Then, it was time to catch the cable car back down to meet my driver. I'm next in line!
Met my driver at the bottom, and he asked what I wanted to see next. I bought him a coffee, and we had a bit of a discussion about our next stop. We agreed it was starting to get late, so we should start making our way back towards Beirut. On the way, he suggested we stop at the Jeita Grotto so I could see some underground caves filled with stalactites and stalagmites. Wait, another cable car to get there?!
Walked through the first cave, which was super interesting, but reminded me a lot of Luray Caverns here in Virginia. To get to the second cave, you rode a little train down the hill. On my train were about 100 women with headscarves, and maybe a dozen men. Finally, one of the bolder women started chatting me up. Turns out they were a tour group from all over Iraq, and they were here on vacation because it's the only place they could go without a visa.
"Do you mind if I take a picture with you?" "Yes me too!" "Yes me too!" I'm pretty certain I'm going to be listed as the boyfriend / fiancé, / future husband on a lot of denied applications for U.S. visas in the not too distant future.
The one who had initially chatted me up got even bolder. "Do you mind if I accompany you on the walk of the next cave?" Sure, why not, I mean there's nothing weird about this at all. So, into the cave we went, walking around and taking it in. I half expected her to grab my hand and demand immediate marriage, but no such luck. 🙂 Turns out, a short way into the cave, there was a boat ride. Through the caves. So here I am, me and a dozen Iraqi women (no men) in a boat, doing what can only be described as a romantic cruise through some underground caves. This was getting slightly weird. But, it all ended completely innocently, and at the exit she wished me safe travels…and it was time to walk back to my driver.
Got back to Beirut a bit after 7pm, which meant I owed several extra hours. No problem. This was getting expensive, but based on everything he'd shown me in our 11 hours together it was totally worth it.
Since I was getting a bit sick of hummus by this point after all my time in Israel and now Lebanon, it was time for something different. The woman at the hotel recommended a restaurant called Scoozi, which she described as an "Italian Sushi Bar." Are you kidding me? I've heard of fusion, and then there's downright crazy. I had to try it.
Followed up by lasagna, naturally!
Back to the hotel where the Four Points had generously left another bottle of Château le Jason in my room. Did a bit of blogging and laid down. I wanted to get up semi-early to be able to explore Beirut a bit before my mid-afternoon flight to Kuwait the next day!
Looks amazing. Would love to visit Lebanon someday.
I always look forward to reading your posts, you have such interesting adventures! Thanks for another great one. The fusion restaurant was particularly funny.
Thanks! Lots more adventure to come!
Will be in Lebanon next week, left planning to last minute, was planning a drive out to Baalbeck, good to have a recent update on the situation.
Washington to Beirut, Lebanon with United and Lufthansa Beirut to Washington, DC…via…Kuwait?


"I need some work done, whether that is easy or hard for the person I hire isn't relevant... and if they answer my question too quickly that certainly shouldn't be a problem either."
" if, on the other hand, you want someone to actually dig up an answer to your question (and whether that is easy or hard for them isn't relevant) then you should have to pay."
I have no problem with having to pay for work, nor with how quickly I get a reply. Chris's know-how with technology automatically makes him a tech-support guru candidate and I have no wish that he does all his answering pro-bono. What I was saying is that charging 27$ flat out, no matter what , is not the way to go IMHO.
Example: If you were to go to the auto mechanic for a problem you have in your car, And you have no idea what the extent of the problem is , how easy or hard it is to fix, or what would it cost, and when you ask the mechanic for the cost he says "that'll be 200$, no questions asked, flat rate". You'll say "cool! I might have a very big problem. I might save on this one!" and then he goes and you see him turning a small knob in your car to the right, and everything is suddenly fine. Would you feel cheated out of a 100$? Wouldnt you feel that the guy could(should) have said "look, it's a real simple thing, 10 seconds and I'm done. It'll cost you only 20$" ?
I know I expect this kind of courtesy when I go to any professional.
What if the mechanic had to replace the whole engine, doing a 3-day work just on your car. Do you think he'll still charge you the flat rate? Or will he say "Look, it was a real b*tch to fix, it'll cost you 2000$"?
My point was that Chris should have lower rates for easier questions and higher rates for harder questions. That's all.

The Perils of Owning a Second Home
A second home sounds luxurious, but there are hidden costs
by Caroline E. Mayer, AARP Bulletin, June 2016 | Comments: 0
Robyn Twomey
Would buying a second home provide a luxury getaway or a financial disaster?
Dennis and Judi Hebert bought their Lake Ontario vacation cottage on a whim. It was Columbus Day, 2014, and Dennis, a semiretired financial planner in Syracuse, N.Y., wanted to take his wife for a romantic drive with a stop for lunch. Nearing the lake, "we started seeing a lot of for-sale signs. We had never really talked about buying an additional place but all of a sudden it seemed like a reasonable idea," recalls Hebert, 69, who had recently sold his business.

"I was worried about what was I going to do all day long when I completely stopped working. A second home seemed like it would fill the void." Three weeks later, they purchased a $182,000 waterfront cottage. This "spur of the moment" decision was the beginning of all sorts of surprises.
Looking to Buy a Second Home?
Better budget for:
Higher interest and insurance rates for a secondary residence
A property-tax adjustment after the purchase
Furniture, remodeling and decorating
Routine upkeep and emergency repairs
Travel expenses to and from your new haven
Sales of second homes have been booming since 2010, with a record high of 1.13 million vacation properties sold in 2014, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Sales dropped to 920,000 in 2015, largely because growing demand reduced the number of homes for sale—and, of course, pushed prices higher. The median price for a vacation property in 2015 was $192,000, up 28 percent from 2014's median of $150,000.
"There are fewer bargains to be had," says Jessica Lautz, NAR's managing director of survey research. Boomers are driving the demand, Lautz adds, noting that 16 percent of vacation-home buyers say they are purchasing the property for future retirement.
Buying a second home has certain financial advantages, particularly for people over 50, says Dorcas Helfant-Browning, a real estate agent in Virginia Beach, Va. Many older buyers have paid off most, if not all, of the mortgage for their primary residence, so a new mortgage "makes a nice tax deduction," she says. Taxpayers can write off interest on more than one home if the properties' total debt is less than $1.1 million. Property taxes are also deductible, although deductions are limited for taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax.
Then come the hidden headaches. Hebert discovered that financing and insurance coverage were harder to obtain—and more expensive—for a second home than for a primary residence. Banks wanted to charge 5.5 percent interest for a second-home mortgage, even though they were offering 2.9 percent for primary residences. "They also wanted a home inspection and all sorts of paperwork," Hebert says. "It was a hassle."
See also: Are you properly insured?
Thanks to the proceeds from selling his business, he ended up buying the cottage without a mortgage. In this, the Heberts are not alone; according to NAR, more than a third of vacation-home buyers self-finance, and 43 percent find the mortgage application process to be more difficult than expected.
Also, the Heberts had trouble finding homeowners insurance because the couple wouldn't be living in the cottage full time. "The first company my agent looked at wasn't interested," Hebert says. "The second had some outrageous price. My agent and I kept looking until we found something acceptable."
Also "overlooked in the heat of the moment," he says, was the fact that property taxes would nearly double, since the property's assessed value would automatically climb because of his higher purchase price.

But it was the decorating costs that blew the roof off, so to speak. "I thought we had bought this nice comfortable cottage, all furnished, so we'd just move in and settle down, spending perhaps an extra $5,000 to spruce the place up," Hebert says. "My wife wanted to paint, remodel and refurnish everything," including adding a new bathroom. In the end, the tab for all: $30,000.

Richard Kagawa has owned a second home in Big Bear Lake, Calif., since 1991. "Many of my favorite family memories have been at our vacation home." Still, Kagawa, 63, warns, "You have twice as much stuff to fix, pay for and maintain. And when you would like to be enjoying your house, you may have to be repairing something or waiting for a repairman."
And, like the Heberts, he's learned to expect the unexpected. "Eighteen months after we bought our house, a serious earthquake destroyed a major wall and chimney, causing $20,000 in damage"—to a house that cost only $111,000.
Preventive maintenance is especially important in a second home because you're not there to immediately catch something if it goes wrong, says Bill White, a Richmond, Va., real estate broker who bought a condominium in Virginia Beach in 2012. He learned this the hard way when a water pipe burst during a cold snap.
"I should have realized the pipe was more exposed than it should have been," White says.
Then there's the matter of wild animals. Helfant-Browning recalls the time her husband found a baby copperhead in the master bedroom of his family's mountain retreat near Charlottesville, Va. "To say he was upset was an understatement," she says. "He had to find a service to snake-proof the house."

Paper sales rep Meachel Johnson recalls seeing "lots of wildlife" when she and her fiancé began looking for a weekend beach house near Vancouver, Wash., two years ago. They dubbed one place "the bird house" because it was so full of droppings and feathers. Johnson opted for a different house on Washington's Long Beach Peninsula.
"We had extra income, so the purchase made sense financially," says Johnson, 47. What doesn't make sense, she says, are the frequent power outages. Often, she arrives to "find lights flashing on appliances. We never know if the power was out for five minutes or five hours. I never know if the food I left in the freezer is still good."

For Johnson, the biggest challenge was a disagreement with her fiancé over how to use the house. She had envisioned renting it out to offset costs. "But once we bought it, my fiancé didn't want strangers there," she said. "I wished we had talked about it in advance."
Maintenance concerns have deterred CPA Lester Nosal, 58, of Omaha, Neb., from buying a second home, even though he and his wife go to Estes Park, Colo., for a month every summer. "We spent our honeymoon there 36 years ago and have been there every year but two."
Even so, he says, "I don't want to drive there and think, Now I have to spend three days on my roof. I have enough stress in my life."
By contrast, Hebert considers his Lake Ontario cottage a stress-relieving rural escape. He has no regrets, but says he has learned a valuable lesson. "When buying a second home, make sure you know what your ultimate goal is—what will make you satisfied. Then add 15 percent."

Butchered pig, Gift Horse/mouth, Goosey goosey sell yer, Poli Poet and Gay Tories
I am having to "write" this with my left hand today, it is because the weather is turning colder and the reason is below.
Egbert Van der Pole and the hidden pig
Ok so it is not exciting "news", but I found it interesting: Over at the Telegraph there is a story of the restoration of the above painting which discovered the butchered pig hanging on a ladder in a barn.
"It was painted over, and the obvious question is, Why was it painted over?" said Mr Zwart. "Well, it was most likely not covered over by the artist. Very likely a wealthy patron bought it.
"It's this grotesque scene, this butchered animal hanging in a barn. And quite likely this patron hired another artist to paint it over."
Mr Zwart said the restored work "looks a lot different than before, and it looks better.
The restoration work also revealed information about the painting's history. It turns out that the work is a "pendant," one of a pair of paintings on a shared theme. Barn Interior's companion painting hangs in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
Why the fuss? Back in the 17th century farmers butchered their own stock, and probably hung them in a barn to cure, no fridges back then, the interesting bit is that the owner paid someone to cover it up, we mustn't upset the gentry you know.
Gift or graft?
Between three and five "free" laptops turned up at the governor's offices in West Virginia, Vermont, Wyoming and Washington state, but no one had ordered them.
"They immediately raised a red flag," said Matt Turner, spokesman for West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin. "No one said, 'Hey, we got a free gift.'"
The laptops were made by Hewlett Packard or came from its Compaq brand. The world's leading PC maker said it told law enforcement that it intercepted and turned around similar deliveries ordered for six additional states.
HP is aware that fraudulent state government orders recently have been placed for small amounts of HP equipment. HP took prompt corrective action to address the fraudulent orders and is working with law enforcement personnel on a criminal investigation," the Palo Alto, Calif.-based company said in a statement, declining further comment.
The National Governors Association has issued a bulletin about the suspicious shipments. It also said that Vermont's laptops were paid for with a credit card issued in Douglas' name - but that was not one actually held by the governor or issued by that state.
"The State Police and the FBI are working jointly to get to the bottom of why these computers were sent to West Virginia," Baylous said Thursday.
Agent Jay Bartholomew, the FBI's supervisory senior resident agent in Charleston, declined to comment Thursday.
If that happened in the UK, they would be in someone's home by the end of play.
Wooden tops $400,000 for a wooden goose
A rare, 19th century hand-carved goose decoy and considered by some to be a floating sculpture, is going on the auction block (bad choice of words there). It could bring in as much as $400,000.
The decoy was originally purchased by an American expatriate living in Argentina and then sold to a native of that country who was unaware of its origins.
The current owner, Maximo Kirton, emailed a photo of the Canada Goose decoy to Christie's several weeks ago wondering what it might be worth. It sat on a shelve at the family's sheep ranch in Patagonia, Argentina, for 10 years, and then on the mantel of his parent's Buenos Aires home for another two decades.
To Kirton's surprise, Christie's told him the goose was a very unusual example of a working decoy from the late 19th century that could conservatively fetch between $200,000 to $400,000. Not only that, it was part of an extremely rare decoy rig that usually included at least six birds.
It seems that The one coming up for sale is known as a slot-neck goose, because the head dovetails into a hollow carved body. An unusual decoy element, the head slides off "because the hunters would travel with them" up and down the eastern flyway "and that would prevent the head and neck from breaking," Holter said.
"These are highly prized by folk art collectors and working decoy collectors," he said. "They're a uniquely American art form.
Well I've got an old wooden flying duck in the loft any offers?
'I sit upon my bottom'
From down under: there appears to be a Politician poet in Nelson, Northern Territory, Gerry Wood, who held the balance of power in the August 14 vote, ended up making an agreement with the Government to keep them in office.
In the chamber last night, Mr Wood read out two poems about the challenging decision he had to make.
"I sit upon my bottom as my mind begins to ache," his first ditty began.
"I ponder what has happened, just a week ago to date.
"It seems like just a dream and not a real state.
"But when I open up my eyes I know it's no mistake.
"So what's the use of pondering if nothing is a fake.
"Just get on with living and laugh, not contemplate."
The second poem was about the day he had to play kingmaker.
"Some days are good, some days are bad but none quite the same as the 14th day of August," he told the chamber.
"Sometimes I'm happy, sometimes I'm sad, and sometimes I feel like the 14th day of August.
"Sometimes life's easy, sometimes it's not, that's how it was on the 14th day of August.
"Some days I can't remember, some days I can, but I won't forget the 14th day of August.
"But life moves on and the sun comes up, so who cares about the 14th day of August."
Mr Wood's parliamentary poetry received a brief clap from a lone member of the Legislative Assembly.
Don't give up the day job Gerry.
Blues go gay
The Tories have decided to appeal to homosexuals with a new logo, The logo was displayed on the Conservative Party website as part of events billed as Conference Pride at the annual political gathering in Manchester.
More than 700 delegates are expected to attend a £15-a-head cocktail party at the Spirit Bar, in the heart of the city's famous gay village, where they will be entertained by a live performance by disco diva Angie Brown.
Andrew Brierly, 29, a party activist from Clapham, south London, said the event is a sign the true-blue party was "modernising" its image to appeal to new voters.
He said: "By hosting events like this it is hoped that voters will recognise that the Conservative party is at the forefront of agenda-setting politics.
"The party is modernising at it is not afraid to broach traditionally taboo subjects such as the rights of the homosexual community.
The event will be compered by Margot James - the party's vice-chairman and first openly lesbian candidate - and Iain Dale, the first openly-homosexual Conservative to contest a parliamentary election, and will feature "funky house and pop floors", "promotional bar prices" and a "celebrity auction" sponsored by Harvey Nichols.
David Cameron has repeatedly promised to make his party more inclusive. He told Pink News last year: "I want the Conservative Party to be an open and inclusive party which speaks for everyone in Britain regardless of their race, background or sexuality and I am determined that we will act to ensure that at every level, we are representative of modern Britain."
Just a point Dave, but I think that Tory policies will be the deciding factor for the electorate not a bleeding logo.
And finally finally:
A rant:
The Gov screws us again
Those morons in what is laughingly called the Government have put up fuel duty yet again in the first stage in the removal of government assistance to help families and businesses through the recession.
The Treasury is planning five tax rises worth more than £10 billion between now and the general election. It is also planning to end temporary schemes to ease the downturn, such as car scrappage.
Motorists will be the first affected, with the rise in fuel duty from tomorrow despite petrol prices of 105p a litre. This measure was delayed from last year because of high oil prices. It will generate £1.3 million a day in additional revenue for the Treasury, according to the AA, and means that the taxman takes 65 per cent of the price of a litre of petrol.
And don't expect any help from the Tories:
The Conservatives said: "Family budgets are being squeezed yet further." The party is consulting on plans for a "fair fuel stabiliser" to replace the current fuel tax regime, so that tax falls when the price rises, and rises when petrol prices fall. "This would protect the public finances from fluctuations in the international oil price and help families cope with rapid changes in the cost of living," a spokesman said.
Or in other words there won't be any reductions, the price will stay the same regardless of the price of oil.
So much for "helping" the electorate through the recession, or is it over and no one has told us?

This Red Sox ownership group has made some substantial changes to Fenway Park since taking the reins in 2002.
They started small, first adding two rows of seats along the first- and third-base lines beside the dugouts before the 2002 season. They went big in 2003, adding the highly sought after seats atop the Green Monster in left field. Before 2004, they added a roof deck over right field, complete with a bar, tables shaped like home plate, swivel chairs, and waiter service.
Before this season they undertook their biggest project of all, removing the enclosed .406 Club and adding open-air seats and the EMC Club behind home plate as part of a renovation of the entire upper level along the first- and third-base lines.
What does Red Sox Nation think of all of these changes? We spoke with fans in those sections on Opening Day at Fenway. Check out the audio slideshows to the left to hear fan reaction from each of the new sections and to experience all of the new views at the old ballpark.

English High Court Elects Not to Intervene Where Emergency Arbitral Procedures Are Available
In the recent English High Court judgment Gerald Metals S.A. v Timis & Ors [2016] EWHC 2327 (Ch), Mr Justice Leggatt provided the first guidance regarding the interaction of the Court's powers to grant interim or conservatory measures in support of arbitration with the provisions for emergency measures in arbitration. Such emergency provisions, including expedited appointment of arbitration tribunals and emergency arbitrators, have proliferated among institutional rules in recent years. His guidance suggests that, where arbitral rules provide for such procedures, but the arbitral institution has declined to activate them in support of a party's application, the English Court will now be loath to interpose its own measures.
Gerald Metals had initially approached the LCIA for an emergency arbitrator and expedited formation of the tribunal under LCIA Rules Articles 9A and 9B. The LCIA had refused those appointments. Gerald Metals then applied under section 44 of the Arbitration Act 1996 for a freezing injunction against the Timis Trust, with an upper limit of $80,000. They also sought an order for the provision of information by the Trust of its worldwide assets, and details of the ownership and value of Senegalese oil interests relevant to the underlying arbitration.
The Court's powers to grant such relief under s. 44 are tempered by ss. 44(3) and (5), which provide that:
"If the case is one of urgency, the court may, on the application of a party or proposed party to the arbitral proceedings, make such orders as it thinks necessary for the purpose of preserving evidence or assets.
In any case, the court shall act only if or to the extent that the arbitral tribunal, and any arbitral or other institution or person vested by the parties with power in that regard, has no power or is unable for the time being to act effectively."
As Mr Justice Leggatt noted, the parties were agreed that the test for urgency in the use of the Court's section 44 powers is to be assessed by reference to whether the arbitral tribunal has the power and the practical ability to grant effective relief within the relevant timescale (Starlight Shipping v Tai Ping Insurance [2008] 1 Lloyd's Rep 230, paras 22, 24, 27).
The parties were also agreed that there can be situations where, despite the existence of emergency arbitration procedures, the need for relief makes the Court's intervention appropriate – such as an application that needs to be made without notice. Applications for emergency procedures under the LCIA Rules must be made on notice to all parties to the arbitration.
However, in the particular case, Gerald Metals argued that the LCIA Rules created a 'gap' where emergency procedures were not merited under those rules, but 'urgency' within the meaning of s. 44(3) would still exist to justify the Court's intervention. Mr Justice Leggatt declined this interpretation, stating:
"The obvious purpose of Articles 9A and 9B is to reduce the need to invoke the assistance of the court in cases of urgency by enabling an arbitral tribunal to act quickly in an appropriate case. It seems to me that to make commercial sense of the provisions a similar functional interpretation of Articles 9A and 9B needs to be adopted as has been given to section 44(3) of the Arbitration Act. In other words, the test of exceptional urgency must be whether effective relief could not otherwise be granted within the relevant timescale – the relevant timescale for this purpose being the time which it would otherwise take to form an arbitral tribunal. Likewise, under Article 9B the test of what counts as an emergency must be whether the relief is needed more urgently than the time that it would take for the expedited formation of an arbitral tribunal. That, in my view, is the rational interpretation of these rules."1
Mr Justice Leggatt also considered the impact of Article 9.12 of the LCIA Rules, which declares that the Article 9B emergency arbitrator procedure is not to be construed as "an alternative to or substitute for" any powers of the Court to grant interim or conservatory measures. He found that Article 9.12 did not affect the position, given the qualified nature of the Court's powers found in section 44 in any case.
The Court ultimately found that only where emergency arbitral procedures "are inadequate, or where the practical ability is lacking to exercise those powers, … the court may act under section 44."2
Mr Justice Leggatt's ruling is another instance of the English Court's tendency to defer to the arbitral process. In circumstances where emergency procedures are in place under arbitration institutional rules, the parameters under which a successful approach to the Court for use of its s. 44(3) powers in their stead are likely to be limited to scenarios where: (i) there is reason for an application to be made without notice (which procedure is not available under arbitral institutional rules providing for such emergency arbitrator measures); or (ii) the application involves third parties who are not bound by the arbitration agreement.
The fact that the judgment is in response to a rejection by the LCIA Court to appoint an emergency arbitrator is also notable – according to LCIA statistics for 2014 and 2015 (the first years emergency measures were available under those rules) no requests were made to the LCIA Court for an emergency arbitrator appointment. It would thus appear that one of the first attempts to invoke the procedure at the LCIA was declined. By comparison, all 50 applications for an emergency arbitrator have been accepted by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre since the procedure's inception under those rules in 2010.
Depending upon the broader circumstances, the Court's position may invite parties to consider whether they would want to opt out of emergency procedures in arbitral rules when drafting their commercial contract dispute resolution provisions, should they wish to preserve a fuller range of English Court intervention in the arbitral process. When doing so in the particular context of LCIA arbitration, commercial parties would benefit from consulting the June 2015 LCIA Guidance Notes on Emergency Procedures. These include "case studies" which consider whether the requirement of "exceptional urgency" for the expedited formation of a tribunal is likely to be satisfied, although the Notes are not binding.

Brian was hired in the off-season and is launching his coaching career in the Valley after a successful run as a player.
The Richmond Hill, Ontario native played with the Ottawa 67's and Peterborough Petes in the Ontario Hockey League and Gatineau Olympics of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League from 2008-11. A defenseman, Birkhoff also skated for five seasons at Ryerson University, where he earned a Bachelor of Commerce (Law) degree. Upon graduation, he spent two years playing professionally in Europe – Sweden in 2016-17 and Denmark last season. Birkhoff will work primarily with the Wildcats defence.
Brian resides in Halifax with his girlfriend and works at marine supply store when he's away from the rink. When time permits, he enjoys boating, water skiing, snowboarding, golf, lacrosse, cooking and listening to vinyl records. He lists The Doobie Brothers, Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young and Bob Seger as some of his favorite musical acts.
Mosher, who backstopped the Acadia University Axemen to an Atlantic University Sport (AUS) title in 2014, will work with the Wildcats' junior, midget and bantam goaltenders.

Often our heads are way too far away from the earth, spending much of our time in thoughts, dreams, visions and plans, intoxicating and diverting us from more present and earthly endeavors. We think too much about other's opinions and seek approval. We think too much about what might be right or wrong for us. From this rootless perspective of our heads, we exaggerate our problems, imagining more and worse than is really there. We become dramatic and obsessive. Our ungrounded minds wander off and create chaos, causing our bodies to feel restless and edgy. We run around in a haphazard way, locking our keys in the car, dialing wrong numbers and leaving our wallets at the last establishment we visited. Our "ungroundedness" disturbs everyone in our path.
The moments of the present, of the earth, the ground, can seem mundane compared to the apparently limitless mind. But being grounded, literally, is what enables us to cast aside our heady visions and embrace our truth at the moment, giving us the freedom we need to be present and more alive.
The earth is there to support us. During these great summer months, find it, touch it and use it.
It's the beautiful month of June in Northern Michigan and Northern Ontario. This summer, I'm pretty much splitting my time between the two. The more time I find for my favorite leisures, the more grounded I become. I'm amazed and impressed with my ability and desire to do little and, consequently, more.
Lately I've been appreciating the Earth, literally. The lower I get, the more I like it.

• Understand the role for which you are applying and what the job entails. How can you possibly get the job if you don't know what the job is? No one wants to have the "I thought it was Assistant Vice President, not Vice President's Assistant..." conversation. Don't be that person.
• Read up on anyone with whom you are speaking. Check out their LinkedIn profile and when available, their bio on the company website. You should know who they are and where they fit in the company before getting on the call.
• Plan some questions. Thoughtful questions indicate a prepared, engaged candidate. Plan ahead with a few good questions that you can ask on the call.
• Have this information handy. Fortunately, it's a phone screen and you can reference this information without interrupting the conversation.
2. Get a quiet place and block off enough time for the call. Your call is at 3:00pm, and it's 2:55. Definitely enough time to grab a coffee at Starbucks. Wrong! Don't get caught in a loud or crowded environment for a screening call. There is nothing worse than trying to have a cell phone conversation in a loud place, and your interviewer will most certainly forget about your call if you are constantly being interrupted by the barista's loud cackles.
Remember – your call may run over a little! Make sure you aren't rushing your interviewer off the phone to get back to your current job. This could potentially signal that you're not committed to making the leap. Plan on giving your interviewer an additional 15 minutes beyond the allotted time. And block this off on your current work calendar with an inconspicuous meeting title, like "Dentist Appointment." That will throw your nosy co-workers off your trail!
Follow these three tips and you'll be far more likely to land the in-person interview. Good luck!
