Home Style What happens if I don't declare products at U.S. customs?
What happens if I don't declare products at U.S. customs?
French Morning Staff
You want your runny cheese so badly, but customs will take it faster than you can say "camembert". So what are you risking if you decide not to declare your contraband products at customs? If you're considering clandestinely bringing goods into the US, know that it's not without risk.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the federal agency in charge of US borders, takes their job very seriously. At the American border, everyone entering must provide details on all products coming into the US from abroad, specifically their value and country of origin. All this is indicated on the famous blue form distributed on the airplane back to the states.
So what products are we talking about? All products that aren't considered personal effects. (Personal effects are things you already owned before you left the US, like clothing, jewelry, phone, etc.) Souvenirs, presents — to yourself and to others — and food products must be declared. There are limits on what kinds of products you can bring in and how much, so before you try and smuggle something in secretly, take a look at this article to find out if you even need to be smuggling it in the first place.
Option 1: You declare a contraband product
You didn't read up on Frenchly about which products can come to the US, and now you've got some runny cheese in your purse, which isn't allowed in. You are safe to declare it without fear of being reprimanded. But if even though "there is no penalty for declaring a prohibited item," you still have to either abandon it voluntarily at customs, or you will have it confiscated.
Option 2: You don't declare a contraband product
From here, there are two possible scenarios.
Scenario 1: You're transporting this contraband product in non-commercial values (less than $2,500).
If you don't declare your contraband products or give false information, you will most certainly face consequences. According to section 592 of Customs Law, a fine of $300 will be given as a "spot penalty" for the non-declaration of a forbidden non-agricultural product, and the product will be confiscated. French Morning reached out to CBP for further commentary on this topic. CBP spokesperson Jason Givens added that travelers who refuse to pay the fine can ask to choose to have a hearing. "However, if there is a hearing the penalty could increase to $1,000 or more, depending on the item," said Givens.
As for forbidden agricultural products (fruits and vegetables, meat and all food made from animal and vegetable byproducts), which are susceptible to transporting parasites, if you forget to declare, make an error in your declaration, or don't declare at all, you can be charged with a civil penalty of up to $10,000.
Scenario 2: You're transporting commercial quantities (more than $2,500 dollars).
In this case, the CBP uses article 542 — a section of title 18 in the United States Code of Law. Under article 542, a person transporting commercial qualities of undeclared goods can be charged with the criminal penalty of money laundering, and illegal or attempted illegal importing, punishable by a maximum of 20 years in prison, a fine, or both. The criminal fine is up to $500,000 or twice the value of the contraband non-declared products, whichever is greater.
The fines don't stop there. In additional to the criminal penalty, there is a civil penalty of up to $10,000, or the value of the contraband non-declared product, whichever is greater.

Prime Day 2019: Deals
Nokia Phi Windows 8 phone confirmed by new patent?
By Joe Svetlik 2012-08-24T09:56:00.236Z Operating systems
This could very well be Nokia's upcoming Windows 8 device
Phi fi phone fun
Nokia and Microsoft have a joint press conference planned for September 5, and this could very well be what they'll announce: the Finnish firm's first Windows 8 handset, the Nokia Phi.
The sketch was unearthed by LiveSide in a design patent issued earlier this week. It looks a lot like the Lumia 800 or 900, Nokia's Windows 7 handsets, but there are some differences.
The bezel is thinner for a start, and the speaker is different. The sketch also squares with the picture of a Phi prototype that leaked earlier this month.
According to rumours, the Phi has a 4.7-inch curved screen, is made of polycarbonate, and has a dual-core processor. It'll be expandable thanks to an SD slot, and will have support for NFC, too.
It could be US only to start, but seeing as it's a flagship, we'd expect to see it hit these shores before long.
Straight as an Arrow
Nokia is also said to be working on the Arrow, another Windows 8 handset to be announced on September 5.
The Arrow is said to be a mid-range Windows 8 handset. But details are sparse, so we'll have to wait until September 5 to find out more. Expect it to be closer to the Lumia 710 in terms of specs.
IFA kicks off next week in Berlin as well, with plenty of Android devices coming courtesy of Samsung and the like (though fans of Bada will be out of luck). So expect to see a flurry of new phones coming your way soon.

These Are the Worst Films of the Decade
By Hashtagchatter Staff December 17, 2019 | Entertainment
As the 2010s wind-down, its time to take a look back at some of the worst films of the decade. Believe it or not, some of these films even star your favorite Hollywood celebrities, while others are part of successful franchises. However, one thing remains the same: critics and audiences simply detested these movies. Without a doubt, these films are the worst of the 2010s, if not of all time…
The Emoji Movie (2017)
Rotten Tomatoes Score: 7%
Sometimes, a Hollywood studio just pushes a movie out to cash in on a huge trend – like The Emoji Movie. This time around, Sony Pictures attempted to use people's love of texting and emojis to get butts into seats. It didn't work. Audiences did not enjoy it, albeit the star-studded cast, which included the likes of Sofia Vergara, James Corden, and Sir Patrick Stewart. Just a quick reminder: Sir Patrick Stewart voices a poop emoji. That's the kind of film we're talking about. While the best animated films entertain everyone, The Emoji Movie failed to even work on children. The film wasn't just dull either, critics said there was also too much product placement and an overload of bright visuals. Woof.
Rotten Tomatoes Score: 15%
If we're being honest, most of Michael Bay's work over the past ten years could have ended up on a "worst films of the decade" list. However, even for Bay, Transformers: The Last Knight failed to resonate with critics and audiences alike. While the first Transformers, which debuted in 2007, had its charms, the franchise quickly became a bore. The Last Knight simply featured more and more of what you already expect from a modern Transformers movie: too much CGI action, tacky one-liners, and an incoherent story. Not even the incredible Anthony Hopkins could save this one.
Saving Christmas (2014)
Sure, most Christmas films are a little cheesy. After all, they focus on the warm, fuzzy parts of the holiday: the spirit of Christmas, time with family, crackling fires, and so on. However, some Christmas movies turn out fantastic, and watching them become a yearly tradition. Saving Christmas, also known as Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas, is not one of them. Instead, many called the film "a disaster." Not only did Saving Christmas receive six Razzie Award nominations, but it also has one of the lowest scores ever on both Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb. That should come with its own terrible award!
Valentine's Day (2010)
Do you remember Valentine's Day? The film received a huge marketing campaign, building up the hype to massive levels. And it's really no wonder, as the cast featured some of the biggest names in Hollywood: Jamie Foxx, Jessica Alba, Bradley Cooper, Jessica Roberts, Anne Hathaway, and more. However, while Valentine's Day enjoyed a decent opening weekend, ticket sales quickly dropped off. Why? Well, while the advertisements may haven driven audiences to theaters the first weekend, word of mouth quickly spread: Valentine's Day was not worth seeing. Critics and audiences alike called it "manufactured" and cliched. In the end, the famous faces simply did cut it.
Jack and Jill (2011)
Adam Sandler – you either love him or you hate him. Regardless, he's still everywhere, cranking out one goofy film after another. Like Michael Bay, many of Sandler's movies could be considered some of the worst films of the decade. However, Jack and Jill, which premiered in 2011, remains one of his most infamous films ever. It even co-starred Al Pacino, the legend himself! But nothing could stop this movie from leaving audiences painfully bored. The movie won almost every Razzie award – an "Oscars" for terrible films – and no one bought Sandler's, who played both Jack and Jill, performance. It was crude, cringey, and overall a forgettable movie.

What to do with left over inventory?
If you are running a business with a colossal inventory, you will be aware of the exhausting process to count your stocks. Not only is the inventory management boring and tedious, it is easy to make a mistake, leading to loss of time and efforts. No matter how careful you are at counting the inventory, you may record the numbers in the wrong spaces on your paperwork, or make a typo error when feeding the data in your computer, if two products appear similar. However, recording the inventories is critical for keeping a tab on the buffer stocks of products.
• An inventory helps in quick demand generation, it informs the customers of available products and may lead to a sale.
• Inventory is critical to maintaining the pipeline of processes involved such as billing and invoice, and a period for completing operational procedures.
• Inventory serves as a hedge against supply & demand buffer. The company on maintaining an inventory record can check the quality of the products supplied by a single vendor can correct erroneous records, schedule processes for more stock deliverables. Socks buffering allows business owners to market their store with greater confidence, which eventually leads to improved sales revenues.
As a retailer, you probably have tons of hassles in dealing with your inventories and to top that, it is a rather daunting task to execute. There is always room for errors and frustrations to pull off an left over inventory counting process and to execute it with minimum dignity. Your staff and management have probably put in extra hours to finish the task just to remember that there were a few inputs left out or few errors in the typing of data. However, it is inevitable to keep the record of inventories, which will provide you with an estimate of leftover stocks. A few tips on handling your surplus inventories.
• Clearance SALE: This is the best way by which your surplus inventories can be moved out and an effective way to make extra cash. Also, customers tend to allure to discounts and offers more than the usual marked priced items. You can start by giving 30% off on the left over inventories while the customer and sales feedback can navigate you further with the pricing.
• Promotional Offers: Issuing promotional cards, discount coupons and other valid offers and schemes can be an effective way of moving out your surplus inventories. Customers are always on a lookout for good deals and if your retail outlet has them all, then you are in business! Providing free shipping, buy 1 get 1 free offers, 60 – 70 off discounts, free gifts with a purchase of $100 at your retail outlet and giveaways are some of the many ways by which you can boost your sales and also move out excessive inventories.
• Online Marketplaces: There are tons of online marketplaces, which have vendors from all over the world coming to them with the purpose of selling out their stuff. eBay is one such example, and you can easily make a fortune by putting up your excessive inventory online for sale. Alternatively, you can sell your stocked items at a discounted price tag to attract more customers. Your customer base can also expand to international destinations if you are willing to do the needful shipment processing.
Glad you liked the article. Watch out this space for more interesting & curated content!


The last few days have really felt like an early Christmas on Amazon ebooks.
They have had so many amazing deals and frees books ~ I've been a downloading fool! I hope the fun continues. I have no idea how I'm going to get all these books read and still get anything done but I'm up for the challenge! I really need a higher paying job so I can afford a maid lol!
A few days ago I downloaded Back to the Bedroom by Janet Evanovich. It's one of her earlier stand alone novels before she wrote the Stephanie Plum series. It is such a charming romance!
It's considered a short romance at 272 pages though not a novella it's an easy, light read and right now its only $.99 in the Amazon store. That's an 87% discount! I downloaded it 12-5-12 and read some of it last night and finished it today on my lunch break at work (it's still on sale, I checked). It's the romance of Kate Finn and David Dodd and completely Evanovich style! It was laugh out loud funny, cheerful (especially after an extremely rough week at work) and it had adventure aplenty! David is Kate's neighbor and he's sitting on his front porch when something crashes through Kate's roof! It's love at first sight -though he's been in love with her since he moved in next door.
Don't quote me on that, I read a lot and it's been a few years since I read this one.
I gave Back to the Bedroom 4 stars, I enjoyed it very much. Evanovich makes me happy, her books make me laugh and though sometimes things are similar in her novels I can't feel upset about it. David was truly original and I liked Kate's character a lot. The ending was fantastic!
Drum rrrrroooolllllll.........Love in a Nutshell, by Janet Evanovich published in January 2012 is on sale for $2.99 and I bought it tonight. I haven't begun reading it yet but I'm so happy that I will probably start as soon as I'm done blogging. I've been waiting for ages to read this novel!
Co-authored by Dorien Kelly (whom I know nothing about) and normally $8.99. I feel like I just took the last 2 oreos out of the cupboard!!
Can these two smoke out a saboteur, save Kate's family home, and keep a killer from closing in…all while resisting their undeniable attraction to one another? Filled with humor, heart, and lovable characters, Love in a Nutshell is delicious fun.
From The New York Times bestselling writing duo Janet Evanovich and Dorien Kelly, comes the story of a young woman's search for true love. Caroline Maxwell would like nothing more than to join her brother, Eddie, and his friend, Jack Culhane, on their adventures. While Jack and Eddie are off seeing the world, buying up businesses and building wildly successful careers, Caroline's stuck at home frightening off the men her mother hopes will ask for her hand in marriage. When her mother sets her sights on the questionable Lord Bremerton as a possible suitor, Caroline struggles with her instincts and the true nature of her heart. She longs for adventure, passion, love, and most of all . . . Jack Culhane, an unconventional Irish-American bachelor with new money and no title. A completely unacceptable suitor in the eyes of Caroline's mother. But Caroline's dark hair, brilliant eyes and quick wit have Jack understanding just why it is people fall in love and get married. Set in New York City in 1894, The Husband List is an American gilded age romantic mystery. It evokes memories of the lavish lifestyles and social expectations of the Vanderbilt's and Rockefellers—a time when new money from the Americas married Old World social prestige and privilege. Dresses by Worth, transcontinental ocean voyages, lavish parties, a little intrigue, and a lot of romance await in, The Husband List.
Enjoy your weekend and settle in with a good novel, maybe an Evanovich best seller will tempt you!

CalOSHA published a news release TODAY, on a new emergency regulation for the electronic submission of CY 2017 Form 300A on Occupational Injuries and Illnesses. CalOSHA submitted the rule yesterday, and will allow public comments until Tuesday, October 30th, with the intention of adopting it as final by November 5th!
According to CalOSHA, businesses operating in California that would be required to submit the CalOSHA Form 300A online include all establishments with 250 or more employees, unless specifically exempted by section 14300.2 of Title 8 of the California Code of Regulations, and establishments with 20 to 249 employees in the specific industries listed on page 8 of the emergency regulation's proposed text (including common industries such as manufacturing, grocery stores, department stores, and warehousing and storage). The reporting deadline would be December 31, 2018. Beginning in 2019, the reporting deadline would be March 2 of the year after the calendar year covered by the form(s). So, for example, CY 2018 300A Forms would be submitted by March 2, 2019.
Cal/OSHA submitted the emergency regulation amending recordkeeping sections 14300.35 and 14300.41 of Title 8 of the California Code of Regulations to the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) on October 25. Interested persons have until "October 30 to submit comments on the proposed emergency regulation." OAL will have until November 5 to review and adopt or deny the proposed regulation.

Q: Show captions when mouse hovers over the thumbnail menu in Jssor I am using Jssor and wanted to know how to show a caption when the mouse hovers over one of the thumbnail menu images?  I have tried to add the title attribute to the image as so

nothing happened. so I did this one

   Uplink tools

Again, nothing happened.
So is there a way to do this?

A: This is the solution that I have found, so if anyone is interested here it is:
First I removed this line

from the thumbnavigator, for some reason when this line is in the code the image title is not shown.
Then I copied all the css code for the .c class to the .t class, this one

Lastly, I changed the opacity from 0 to 0.5 and 1, as so
.jssort03 .p:hover .t, .jssort03 .pav .t {
        filter: alpha(opacity=0.5);
        opacity: 1;
    }

now the image caption, title, is shown when I hover on the thumbnail menu images.
cheers,

Sanders' Bucs are bedeviled by the details
Jeff Birchfield • Nov 11, 2019 at 10:00 PM
JOHNSON CITY — It comes down to the details, according to East Tennessee State football coach Randy Sanders.
The Bucs (2-8) lost their sixth straight game Saturday, a 23-20 overtime defeat at Western Carolina. Six of the teams' eight losses, including the past four, have been by seven or fewer points.
"Our team plays hard. The effort is there, the intensity is there, but sometimes it's our attention to detail, doing it every single play," Sanders said. "If one guy is off with his attention to detail, the next play it's this guy and the next it's another guy, you have a lot of guys playing well, but it doesn't take a lot to mess you up.
"It's a lot of little things. If you don't take care of the little things, they become big things. That's what separates the good teams from average teams."
The Bucs will try to take care of the details against Mercer on Saturday at 1 p.m. at Greene Stadium. The game is part of a Heroes Day celebration in which military veterans and first responders will be admitted free of charge.
PASSING WOES
ETSU particularly struggled in the passing game against Western Carolina, throwing for under 100 yards for the first time this season and the first time since throwing for 69 yards against Tennessee in a 2018 loss.
Starter Trey Mitchell completed 4 of 8 passes for 30 yards and Tyler Riddell hit 8 of 14 for 59 yards. However, most of those came on a single play, a 44-yard completion to Anthony Spagnoletti.
Sanders, a former quarterback, said a big difference in the offense from a year ago is that senior Austin Herink was leading the team in 2018. Now with freshmen under center, the coach doesn't feel the team is playing with the same confidence.
Sanders pointed out the Bucs didn't help themselves in certain situations against Western Carolina, although he said much credit has to go to the Catamounts' defense.
"They changed a lot of their third-down packages," Sanders said. "We studied all of their games going in and would see a percentage of man-to-man and a percentage of three-deep zone. The first third-and-3 we had, we ended up having to punt on the first possession.
"We made some adjustments, but there were some situations we didn't get open. There were some situations where the quarterbacks didn't hit them, and there were some protection problems. We start the second half, the receiver falls down on third down trying to make a cut. The next one, we throw it over the receivers head.
"At some point, you have to make plays."
From a statistical standpoint, the Bucs are still averaging 178.4 passing yards per game to 162.1 for their opponents. They have a 12-11 advantage in passing touchdowns.
For Sanders, it's all about a one game at a time mentality, although he admitted it's not always easy for players going through such a tough stretch.
"Every game is a challenge, especially the way the last six games have gone," Sanders said. "To keep persevering, to keep fighting back, it's not easy to keep putting your pads on and competing as hard as our guys are. I'm really proud of how hard they are competing."
Running back Quay Holmes earned praise for his efforts, which included 36 rushes for 166 yards, in the loss. The redshirt sophomore has 878 rushing yards for the season.
Nasir Player, the Southern Conference defensive preseason player of the year, explained there is still plenty for the Bucs to play for. Not only is it the final home game of the season, but it also will be his final chance to take the Greene Stadium field in an ETSU uniform.
"There shouldn't be any issues getting motivated," Player said. "No matter the outcome, the next game presents an opportunity.
"If you love the game, you see it as another opportunity."
Senior center Ben Blackmon added, "We see how close we are to winning. It's not like we're getting blown out every week. We're 1-2-3 plays away. We have to keep grinding and fighting through it."

LUIS CABALLERO HOLGUIN born in Bogota on this date (d: 1995) was a painter, watercolorist, pastellist and lithographer. Caballero is known for depicting masculine fugures, and his works often include both erotic and violent imagery.
Caballero was raised in a conservative Catholic household. He studied at the Universidad de Los Andes (Colombia) in 1961-62, where he met and was influenced by etcher artist Juan Antonio Roda and art critic Marta Traba. He continued his academic studies in Paris at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere, graduating in 1964. It is during this time that he discovered Willem Dekooning and Francis Bacon. Back in Colombia, in 1968, he won First Prize at the First Ibero-American Biennal of Medellin.
Caballero returned to Paris where he found more freedom in 1969 and lived there until 1995, when he returned to Bogota for a special exhibition of his work at the Luis Angel Arango Library.
He died in June of the same year at the age of fifty two.
His figurative works are usually large scale mixed media oil, ink, watercolor washes on either canvas or paper, sometimes incorporating fabrics or rope in a limited range of muted sepia colors, often representing male nude figures, in a contemporary style marked by classic training.
His work was briefly censored by those who considered it "obscene, pornographic and immoral", even though Caballero himself said: "Maybe the creative impulse is the same as the erotic impulse," and: "I paint the bodies I would like to possess." There was definitely a homo-erotic element in the works that focused on the beauty of the male body (unusual in a world that loves to celebrate the feminine form) as well as moments of horror in his depictions of the pain, injury, decay and death inflicted on our bodies.

Preheat your outdoor grill over high heat and add some oil on the grate. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Prepare a large bowl and mix ground beef (1 lb.), onion (1 chopped piece), garlic (1 clove), and olive oil (1 tbsp.). Add Worcestershire sauce (1 tbsp.), Italian seasoning (1 tsp.), some salt, and some pepper. Add egg (1 piece), and mix all of the ingredients well. Now you need to make four thick patties. Place burgers on the grill and cook until they become brown.
Prepare a skillet with olive oil (1 tbsp.) and heat it over medium heat. Saute onion (1 chopped piece) along with chopped mushrooms (1/2 lb.) until the mixture is caramelized and brown.
Cut the pastry into four squares, and roll pieces to be of enough size to wrap burgers. Place the mushroom mixture in the center of each piece of the pastry, and then add burgers on top. Wrap the pieces of the pastry around burgers and carefully seal edges. Place the prepared parcels on a baking sheet. Beat egg (1 piece) and use it to brush the top of the parcels.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven for around 25-30 min. Make sure that the pastry becomes golden brown and puffed.
While the dish is being baked, you should make the sauce: Prepare a saucepan and mix grape juice (1 cup), Worcestershire sauce (1 ), and bouillon (1 cube). Heat the mixture over medium heat. Dissolve the cornstarch (1 tbsp.) with water (1 tbsp.) and add to the sauce. Keep simmering the mixture, constantly stirring, until you get a thick sauce.
Remove the parcels from the oven and serve with the red grape sauce.

Find a Court Interpreter | The Directory by AppearMe
Court interpretation is a process held by a certified court interpreter who interprets between English and one or more foreign languages. Interpreters provide a clear and understandable interpretation for people who don't speak the same language.
A professional court interpreter possesses an educated, native-like mastery of both English and another language; displays wide general knowledge, and performs the three major types of court interpreting: sight translation, consecutive interpreting, and simultaneous interpreting.
Sight translation is when a document in another language that the court doesn't speak is given to the interpreter and after reading it he/she has to explain it translated in English to the judge.
Simultaneous interpreting happens while speaking of the person. The interpreter immediately translates what the other party says without waiting for them to finish their speech. This rarely happens in court but sometimes you can witness it.
Consecutive interpreting, on the other hand, starts when the person has finished their talk during which the interpreter can make some notes to not miss any important details.
If a person in a judicial environment is not so good at English then interpreters come to help. They can translate verbally everything that judge and others in the course say from English to native language and the opposite.
As we all know languages have layers of vocabulary for every profession and just simply speaking communicative English is not enough for the court. There are terms and special vocabulary for a legal field that interpreters know perfectly in the languages they interpret.
Our world hosts various kinds of people be they fully healthy to people having problems with hearing and speaking, accordingly, courts provide also sign language interpreters for people who are deaf or have a hearing impairment.

After these simple steps, you can look for a certified court interpreter who meets your requirements and work together.
How to Become a Court Interpreter?
If a person is planning to become one or currently studying then these steps can help to plan their career to drive in the right direction.
Step 1: Become Bilingual
One of the requirements for court interpreting is to be bilingual at least in two languages. After students choose the second language they would like to master in they have to start going to specialized classes. They can take the initiative to participate in voluntary or social services to get acquainted with the layers of the language. They can join community organizations such as hospitals, clinics, participate in competitions and programs that host international interpreters as volunteers. This will boost their learning effect and develop communication competence too. Moreover, they can learn about relative cultures by self-education as well. They can read books in both languages and familiarize themselves with the industry terminologies and develop vocabulary practice.
Step 2: Obtain a Bachelor's Degree
Interpreters undergo a long and strict education before they become certified professionals. They must have a bachelor's or a college degree as the US Bureau of Labor Statistics states. Students can enroll in bachelor's degree programs for translation choosing their desired language for their career.
Students can choose to acquire specialized knowledge of a specified field or industry or just select a program particularly designed for interpreters. They can as well choose to study in the country of origin of their chosen language, hence, learning the slang, legal jargon, and colloquial vocabulary of it. You can also take additional courses in phonetics, translation, diction, composition, etc.
Step 3: Pass a Court Interpreter Certification Training
As you completed your bachelor's degree in translation studies and are fluent in a foreign language, then your next step will be enrolling in a court interpreter certificate program from high ranking organizations such as the American Translators Association, National Association of Judiciary Interpreters and Translators and Center for Assessment of Sign Language Interpretation. Certification is essential for an interpreter to work in court. How to get certified to become a court interpreter? For gaining a certificate an individual should pass both a bilingual interpreting oral exam and a written exam and register in the Judicial Council.
If a person studies for American sign language interpreting then can pursue National Interpreter Certification. For obtaining this certificate they have to pass two exams – a hands-on performance test and a multiple-choice written test.
The Judicial Council has established specific categories of court interpreters as well as procedures for qualifying interpreters. The Judicial Council directly certifies and registers spoken-language interpreters:
A certified interpreter is a spoken-language interpreter who has passed the Bilingual Interpreting Exam.
A registered interpreter is a spoken-language interpreter of a non-designated language (in which no state certifying examination is offered) who has passed the Written Examination and the Oral Proficiency Exams (OPE) in both English and their non-English language.
A provisionally qualified interpreter is an interpreter who is not certified or registered by the Judicial Council in the target language and is appointed by a court to interpret after a finding of good cause and is qualified under the provisional qualification procedures adopted by the Judicial Council.
How Much Does Court Interpreter make?
The average US court interpreter earns approximately $68.000 per year. The average California court interpreter's salary per year reaches around $74,000 with the last statistics updated in March 2022.

Telecom is a basic need for everyone.
- Caller ID: Prevention of fake Call/SMS: 'Telecom Service Provider' can display 'Caller Name & Number'.
- Customer Care Number ('Bank to Customer' or 'Customer to Bank'): Single Customer Care Toll-free Phone Number for each Bank, from fixed series of numbers. For example, starts from 1000 ends to 2000. The same number can be eMail ID also.
- Investment (Mutual Fund, Fixed Deposit, etc.) based Free Telecom Services for AADHAAR holders.
- Customer can get details of Helpline (Telecom Service Provider, Police, Bank, Rail, Hospital, Fire, Bus, etc.).
- Minimizes the documentation with AADHAAR authentication. Customer can take new Telecom connection at different 'Telecom Service Providers' (Shop/Online).
- Customer Profile at TRAI premises can make the things better. Any 'Telecom Service Provider' can initiate the process.
- TRAI can send mail/message to Customer by informing about the numbers that are linked with AADHAAR. Customer can know the number of Telecom Numbers that are linked with AADHAAR, with a Missed Call service.
- 'Telecom Service Provider' can get the basic details of 'Customer Profile (Name, Address, eMail, Primary Mobile, etc.)' from AADHAAR. In case of any change, Customer would update these details at one place, i.e., AADHAAR. Later, the changes would be reflected at all other places automatically.
- Customer can request for transfer/deactivate/delink the Telecom Number from AADHAAR for different purposes. This process need to be implemented in proper way to avoid risk.
transfer: Telecom Number is transferable. Customer may want to give the device (with number) to known people.
deactivate: Customer may want to minimize the devices/numbers.
delink: Unknown number is identified.
- Caution: For successful OTP/Bank transactions, make sure that the 'Primary Mobile Number is linked with AADHAAR', and it is up to date, for all.
-> Improving Communication Network Ways :: Satellite, Towers, Dish, Landline (Optical Fiber), WiFi, etc.
- Strong network can be possible with less number of communication points. i.e., Instead of installing separate Towers/Landline by 'Telecom Service Providers', same BSNL Towers/Landline (including Receivers, Transformers, Transponders, etc.) can be used for all 'Telecom Service Providers'. It was implemented successfully in many countries.
- Maximum cost-cutting for all 'Telecom Service Providers'. Maximum benefit for all 'Telecom Service Providers' and 'Telecom Customers'.
- With the combination of Remote (Satellite, Towers, Dish, WiFi, etc.) and Landline (underground Optical Fiber, Towers, WiFi, etc.) facilities, the Network would be strong, even though, in Nature disaster (Cyclone, Heavy Rains, Floods, Storms, Earthquake, etc.) situations.
- Tower (UPS) can be equipped with additional Solar/Wind Electricity. Try to make Trees around Towers, to prevent damages due to Storms. Temporary/Mobile Towers can be installed in emergency situations.
- Landline (Optical Fiber) can provide WiFi for all Telecom needs.
- If an Institute/Building is having Landline (Optical Fiber), Tower and Dish connectivity; that Institute/Building will have the stable communication network forever.
- Telecom 'Remote and Landline' devices can work as multiplexer, to provide Uninterrupted Strong Communication Network.
- In case of (Remote/Landline) Network breakdown, the risk/issues can be rectified without any inconvenience.
- Network tampering conflicts between 'Telecom Service Providers' can be avoided.
- Prevention of Air Pollution. The Radiation effect can be minimized drastically.
- Prevention of Unauthorized Communication Network. Ex: Virus, Hackers, Cyber-Terrorism, Cyber Crime, etc.
- Additional features (Radio, DTH, Wireless Electricity, etc.) can be added to entire Communication Network.
- Finding different ways to create Wireless Electricity; through Solar, Wind, Mechanical, Light, Water, Ocean, Satellites, Space Stations, Planets, etc.
- 'Electrical & Electronic' devices can work well.
- Vehicles can run without fuel.
- eVehicles/eDevices can get recharged themselves all the time, automatically, for uninterrupted service.
- Prevention of Power failures due to cable breakdown/damages.
- It is possible to minimize the pollution; even though, abolish it completely by recycling the air.
-> Easy Administration Task: Security, Upgrade, Update, Append new features, Monitoring, Load balancing, Maintenance, Research, Management, etc.
- Rs.1/- per day for Calls/SMS/Internet.
- 100% 'Simple & Safe & Secure & Strong' Telecom Network.
- 100% Digital India. 100% Electricity.


Scientists have developed a new shoe insole that may heal diabetic ulcers while you walk. Purdue University engineers say that their new shoe insole could help the 15% of Americans with diabetes who develop diabetic ulcers.
People with diabetes can develop ulcers that they are not aware of until they notice the bleeding. Ulcers do not heal on their own. That is why fourteen to twenty-four percent of Americans with diabetes end up losing their toes or feet. Some of them even lose a limb.
Researchers at Purdue University have developed a new shoe insole that could make the ulcer healing process more portable.
(citation below). Ziaie is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue's Birck Nanotechnology Center.
Diabetic ulcers are usually due to high blood sugar, which damages nerves. Subsequently, patients lose feeling in their toes or feet.
If your toes or feet are numb, you do not notice when they hit things and skin tissue breaks. Eventually, ulcers form.
High blood sugar combined with very dry skin further slow the healing process of ulcers.
Bell, who works at the Memorial Hospital in Jacksonville, Florida, is the founder of the Save a Leg, Save a Life Foundation.
The researchers used lasers to shape the new silicone-based rubber into insoles. They then created reservoirs that release oxygen. However, they only release oxygen in the area of the foot where the ulcer is located.
Jiang is a postdoctoral researcher in electrical and computer engineering.
The new insole can deliver oxygen for at least eight hours a day under the pressure of somebody weighing 53-to-81 kg (117-119 lbs), according to the team's simulations. It is also possible to customize the insole to take on any weight, say the scientists.
A manufacturer could send patients with diabetic ulcers packs of pre-filled insoles, the researchers envision. The manufacturer would customize the insoles to the specifics of each patient's wound site.
In other words, the manufacturer would make the insole according to the patients 'wound profile.' All the manufacturer needs is doctor's prescription and a picture of the patient's foot.
Vaibhav Jain, a Research Associate in Electrical and Computer Engineering, said: "This is mass-customization at low cost." Jain recently graduated from Purdue's Mechanical Engineering Master's program.
The researchers would like to find a way to 3D print the new insole. 3D printing would be faster than printing a mold and then laser-machining a pattern.
They also want to test the insole on real-life diabetic ulcers to further determine how well they speed up the healing process.
The NextFlex PC 1.0 Project funded this research. The researchers, who are currently seeking corporate partners, say a patent is pending on the insole technology. A patent is a certificate that protects an inventor or inventors from the illegal sales, copying, or other uses of their invention.

IARU Administrative Council Resolution Seeks to Rein in Electromagnetic Interference
TAGS: amateur radio, Amateur Radio frequency, amateur radio operations, iaru, IARU international officers, IARU Member-Societies, IARU positions, IARU President Tim, IARU Region, IARU regional organizations, IARU representation, IARU Spectrum Requirements, international amateur radio, international telecommunication union, radio amateur, World Amateur Radio
The International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Administrative Council has called upon International Telecommunication Union (ITU) signatory nations to take steps to ensure that the operation of "electrical apparatus or installations of any kind, including power and telecommunication distribution networks," does not cause harmful interference to Amateur Radio operations. The Council adopted a resolution expressing concern with the "rapid and largely uncontrolled growth" in devices that generate RF energy "as an unnecessary and undesirable consequence of their operation." It cited such devices as switching power supplies, power inverters, plasma video displays, and wireline telecommunication systems that employ such technologies as Broadband over Power Lines (BPL).
The AC said new technologies such as wireless power transfer are likely to be deployed widely in the near future, and it expressed "deep concern" that present standards, regulations, and enforcement resources are inadequate to protect radio services, including Amateur Radio, from harmful interference.
The Council's action, which came during its annual meeting (see attached "Summary Record") on September 27 and 28 in Albena, Bulgaria, followed the recommendation of IARU EMC Coordinator Thilo Kootz, DL9KCE. The resolution encourages IARU member-societies and regional organizations "to pursue implementation of the resolution as a matter of the highest priority," requests standards-setting bodies and regulators to fully support the resolution's objectives, and implores designers and manufacturers to "minimize radio spectrum pollution emanating from their products."
The AC also revised and updated a 2008 resolution concerning operating practices. Noting that Amateur Radio relies on self-regulation for effective use of its allocations, and that "poor operating behavior adversely affects the enjoyment of all radio amateurs," the Council encouraged all radio amateurs to operate proficiently and with "proper consideration for others using the Amateur Radio bands." The Council urged IARU member-societies to teach and promote correct operating behavior.
The Council endorsed and recommended the ethical principles set out in the booklet, Ethics and Operating Procedures for the Radio Amateur by John Devoldere, ON4UN, and Marc Demeuleneere, ON4WW. Recognizing, however, that the detailed operating practices the booklet discusses are subject to occasional revision, the AC encouraged each IARU region "to consider this booklet, with a view to adopting the ethical principles therein, including any regional variations that might be felt appropriate."
Council members also reviewed IARU positions on each WRC-15 agenda item relating to or affecting Amateur Radio, including Agenda Item 1.4, the addition of a new allocation within the band 5250-5450 kHz, which the AC called "a high priority for the Amateur service." WRC-15 will consider "the possibility of making an allocation of an appropriate amount of spectrum, not necessarily contiguous, to the Amateur Service on a secondary basis within the band 5250-5450 kHz."
In other actions, the Council:
expressed support for Region 1 in its effort to obtain a CEPT proposal for post-WRC-15 conference agenda items for worldwide harmonization of 160 meters, harmonization of 6 meters and an allocation at 3.4 GHz.
approved a contribution of $1000 for the IARU International Beacon Project.
adopted the IARU Emergency Telecommunications Guide for use by the IARU member-societies to strengthen Amateur Radio disaster preparedness, response, and mitigation. The Guide will be released soon.
adopted various strategies related to improving Amateur Radio disaster preparedness, response, and mitigation and to promote the role of Amateur Radio in such activities to the general public and to governmental and non-governmental organizations.
created the ad hoc IARU Member-Society Relations Project Team and adopted Terms of Reference for the project. Following its 2013 meeting, the Administrative Council announced that it was "studying ways to work with the non-IARU societies to ensure that the interests of all the amateurs are represented in those countries where the IARU member-society fails to do so."
adopted a system to provide more efficient remote monitoring of certain ITU meetings that may impact Amateur Radio.
reviewed The Plan for the Development of Support for Amateur Radio Frequency Allocations 2012-2017.
reviewed and updated the September 2013 version of the IARU Spectrum Requirements, the working document that sets out the spectrum requirements of the Amateur and Amateur-Satellite services.
expressed the importance of obtaining the ITU Advance Publication Information (API) numbers from administrations for Amateur-Satellite projects, so that information about the number of operating satellites can be maintained for frequency coordination and interference-resolution purposes. The IARU will work with administrations to establish protocols for satellite frequency coordination and to raise awareness of the satellite regulations.
identified International Telecommunication Union (ITU) meetings at which IARU representation will be required for the remainder of 2014 and for 2015, and reviewed plans for representation at those meetings.
received information about the Hamsphere Initiative from Martti Laine, OH2BH, and will review the initiative and seek further information from the project leaders.
As 2015 will mark the 150th anniversary of the ITU, the Administrative Council adopted the theme "ITU & IARU: Celebrating 150 years of Advancing the Telecommunication Art" for the next World Amateur Radio Day, April 18, 2015.
The AC is responsible for the policy and management of the IARU and consists of the three IARU international officers and two representatives from each of the three IARU regional organizations. Attending the meeting were IARU President Tim Ellam, VE6SH/G4HUA; Vice President Ole Garpestad, LA2RR; Secretary Rod Stafford, W6ROD; regional representatives Hans Blondeel Timmerman, PB2T, Dennis Green, ZS4BS, Reinaldo Leandro, YV5AM, José Arturo Molina, YS1MS, Gopal Madhavan, VU2GMN, Wisnu Widjaja, YB0AZ and recording secretary David Sumner, K1ZZ. Also present as observers were Ramón Santoyo, XE1KK, from Region 2, and Don Beattie, G3BJ, observer and President-elect from Region 1.
The Administrative Council will hold its next in-person meeting near Yogjakarta, Indonesia, in October, 2015 in conjunction with the IARU Region 3 Conference.

These words by Ayrton Senna, the legendary Formula 1 racer, could not be apter for writing about adventure racing. About the endless pushing of your limits. When you and your team go further than you ever thought possible. And when the worn out phrase "challenge yourself" gains a completely new, nearly epic meaning.
It happened some years ago. A group of fans from Velenje, scouts by persuasion, decided to try to push their limits. It started as merely a test of preparedness. What a group of friends can do. So they went to an adventure race in Croatia. Once, twice… Then racing stopped being the biggest challenge. The true challenge became organizing the race. And once more pushing the limits of another group of people. This time, the goal was to do something for themselves and - even more importantly - for everybody else. And this is how Adventure Race Slovenia (Slovensko pustolovsko tekmovanje) came to exist. We had already called it Adventure Race Slovenia for the purposes of marketing it internationally. And we gave it the acronym ARS (Adventure Race Slovenia). It is pure coincidence that ars is latin for art. And it later turned out that the race truly was an art form - putting together a team, inviting racers, facing the many organizational challenges. And many other things one faces when attempting an activity no one has tried before.
Adventure Race Slovenia soon became the biggest and the most demanding event of its kind in the region. Numerous teams from all over the world had come to Velenje in the fifteen years since its start and got to know the entirety of Slovenia. Not only Europeans, we've had participants from parts of the world much further away, such as Brazil and New Zealand. Velenje and its surroundings soon became too small a site for the many disciplines demanded by adventure racing. Luckily, Slovenia offers so many different options. This is why we move the competition to different parts of our beautiful country every year.
Cycling, trekking, swimming, spelunking, abseiling, rollerblading, orienteering, climbing, rowing. And if you're wondering what so many different activities are doing in one place - all of it is part of adventure racing. And all in extreme lengths! All of it without proper rest. All of it one after the other. Day and night. To give you a better idea… you need to do about 400 kilometres in three days. Two marathon's worth of running or hiking. Two good stages of alpine cycling. 15 Olympic rowing courses. And quite a lot more. Beside all that, you often need to choose the right path, make sure everyone on the team is on the same page and - most importantly - push your own limits nearly every single hour of the race, again and again. Each member of a mixed four-member team can find out what they're like under pressure. And weather conditions, fatigue, even a mistake in choosing the path, all play their role in the game. As does tactics.
It might seem ardorous. It's not only seemingly so. It is ardorous. But the reward in the end is truly epic. You will reach your limit.. You will touch it. And you will take a step further. Once, twice, three times… and then some, during your three-day adventure. And you will see you can do even more!
We can promise you a nearly full moon in the night sky, luxurious singletrails your bike will traverse on its own, views across all of Slovenia and further, numerous streams to quench your thirst, frequent discipline changes in over 100 control points, dynamic mysterious terrains. And the pushing of your limits.
Can you do it? Are you sure? Come and try! To Adventure Race Slovenia 2016.

Big Boi Drops Two New Singles
Big Boi is back. Ahead of his performance at the Super Bowl this weekend, the OutKast OG serves up two new singles—"Doin' It" and "Return of the Dope Boi."
First up is "Doin' It" featuring Sleepy Brown. The piano-driven track, which was released via L.A. Reid's Hitco label, features a soulful hook from longtime collaborator Sleepy Brown and some syrupy rhymes from Big Boi.
On the trap banger "Return of the Dope Boi," Antwan Patton links with Backbone and his Dungeon Family member Killer Mike. In between flexing about Louis Vuitton luggage and Dom Perignon, Big Boi makes one thing clear: "I ain't steppin' out unless the ice is right."
The two tracks mark Big Boi's first new music since 2017's Boomiverse. On Sunday, he will join Maroon 5 and Travis Scott at the Pepsi Super Bowl halftime show at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in his hometown of Atlanta.

Em sociologia, a frequência de interação social é o número total de interações sociais por unidade de tempo. As interações, ou o que Georg Simmel em seu trabalho pioneiro chamou de "Wechselwirkungen" (do alemão, "interações"),  são a base da própria sociedade, segundo Herbert Blumer .

Visão geral
A interação pode ser direta ou indireta.

 A interação é direta, explicou Hugo O. Engelmann, quando os participantes trocam de papéis.
 A interação é considerada indireta quando os papéis não podem ser trocados.

Conversas face a face, ligações telefônicas e bate-papos online são exemplos de interações diretas. A seu turno, programas de televisão, programas de rádio, vídeos e livros são exemplos de interação indireta. Em outras palavras, a interação ocorre quando uma pessoa percebe o comportamento de outra, esteja ela presente ou não.

Demonstrando, tal teoria de forma lógico-matemático, temos, para duas pessoas (díades) em pequenos grupos, as interações diretas somam , onde n é o tamanho da população. Interações indiretas iguais . As interações indiretas, então, são quase duas vezes mais prováveis do que as interações diretas.

Para populações maiores, a contagem do número de interações diretas não é possível. No entanto, como John Engelmann mostrou, o número pode ser estimado multiplicando o número total da distência percorrida pela  densidade da população. Uma estimativa um pouco mais sensível seria multiplicar distância percorrida pela raiz quadrada da densidade populacional.

O número de interações indiretas pode ser estimado por meio de uma análise do tráfego online. Andrew Lipsman, por exemplo, relatou que dos 2 milhões de usuários que a comScore faz uma amostra, 6% respondem por aproximadamente 50% do tráfego da Internet.

A interação se baseia, em primeiro lugar, no fato de que o comportamento varia em intensidade. Os indivíduos podem ser gentis e pensativos em um momento, ou alegres e pular de alegria no momento seguinte. Os espectadores podem notar um comportamento intenso e, assim, interagir com a pessoa cujo comportamento é mais intenso.

Além da intensidade, o comportamento varia em complexidade. O comportamento pode ser complexo em um momento e simples no seguinte. Em outras palavras, as interações podem limitar o comportamento, ser dinamicamente neutras ou aumentar o comportamento, respectivamente, diminuindo, mantendo ou aumentando a complexidade comportamental.

Exemplo clássico
Teoricamente, intensidade e complexidade estão negativamente correlacionadas. O exemplo clássico de gritar "fogo" em um teatro ilustra isso. A intensidade aumenta, a complexidade diminui e as alternativas diminuem para assustar, fugir e lutar. Aristóteles parece ter sido o primeiro a sugerir uma conexão entre intensidade e alternativas reduzidas. Em sua opinião, "Se tivermos intenso prazer em uma coisa, não podemos fazer outra coisa."

Hipoteticamente, à medida que a frequência da interação aumenta, o comportamento interativo se torna mais intenso, menos complexo e cada vez mais repetitivo. À medida que a população mundial cresce e as pessoas interagem umas com as outras em um ritmo cada vez mais rápido, as estruturas de poder horizontais substituem as verticais e a violência aumenta.

Com o advento da Internet, uma parcela da violência parece ter mudado, de maneira intrigante, da interação direta para a indireta. Discursos retóricos, discursos delirantes e gestos ameaçadores tornaram-se comuns  na blogosfera. Enquanto isso, o fechamento cultural (processo social de superavalorização das culturas ditas  tradicionais)  assumiu uma nova forma chamada ciberbalcanização, ou seja, a tendência de uma caracterização da Internet como fragmentação e divisão devido a vários fatores, como tecnologia, comércio, política, nacionalismo, religião e interesses nacionais divergente. Em outras palavras, os indivíduos interagem com frequência e quase exclusivamente com pessoas similares a eles.

The mechanics here are very wise. They know what they are talking about and only recommend what is needed at the time. Most places will try to "up sell" you not at Meridian. I will always be a customer here for years to come.

ROSA is the acronym for the Registration of South Africans Abroad, a software programme developed by the Department of International Relations and Cooperation to enable travellers to register on-line.
The information travellers register on ROSA allows the Department of International Relations and Cooperation to assist South African citizens in the event of an emergency. The registration is a free, voluntary service provided by Government (through the Department of International Relations and Cooperation). ROSA is only available to South African citizens who are travelling, living or working abroad.
ROSA is an initiative that is endorsed and supported by the Association of South African Travel Agents (ASATA).
Vast numbers of our people who travel abroad every day do not encounter any difficulties. However, through our missions abroad, we have assisted a growing number of South Africans who have become victims of crime, accidents, illness, death, natural/man-made disasters, civil unrest, or whose family and/or next-of-kin needed to contact them in an emergency.
By registering your trip on-line with ROSA you assist the Department of International Relations and Cooperation to locate you during an emergency, thus verifying your status and liaising with your next-of-kin. Information on ROSA is not continuously monitored and will only be accessed during a declared consular emergency.
Click HERE and follow the easy steps.
The Chief Directorate: Consular Services in the Department of International Relations and Cooperation, in close collaboration with the Consular Sections of South African Representatives abroad, provides consular services to South African citizens who work, live and travel abroad. Consular Services operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. On weekends and after hours, assistance is rendered in co-operation with the Department's Operations Room in Pretoria. The Operations Room supports our 121 Representatives in 105 countries affording services that cover the entire world.
ROSA will be utilised by Consular Officers at Head Office or at a South African Mission abroad in the event of a disaster, emergency or other crisis as outlined above.
Information on ROSA is only accessed by the Department during a declared consular emergency. Only authorised officers of the Department of International Relations and Cooperation will have access to the information which will solely be used in the event of an emergency. This will enable the Department to e.g. react by contacting the next-of-kin to verify the status of the South Africans travelling abroad that might have been affected by the emergency.
The Department of International Relations and Cooperation is committed to ensuring that any personal information received through the ROSA on-line registration process is safeguarded against unauthorised disclosure.
The Department will not disclose the information you provide through the registration application to any third parties (this includes family members) unless you have first given written authorisation to do so. In the event that family members make enquiries about your whereabouts, such requests will be forwarded to you. You may choose to inform the mission of your decision to respond or not.
This internet site uses secure encryption to safeguard your privacy and therefore any unauthorised interception by third parties of the information you send via the internet is unlikely. The Department does not accept responsibility for any such interception.
respect the culture and customs of the countries visited.
The consular assistance provided by the Department of International Relations and Cooperation, in the case of an emergency, is usually of a non-financial nature, and the Department will not be responsible for payment of legal, medical, travelling expenses or any other expenses on behalf of the traveller.
It is reiterated that information on ROSA is only accessed by the Department during a declared consular emergency.

The diocese says it also forwarded its report to the Stoddard County Prosecutor's Office for possible criminal charges.
No criminal charges had been filed against Carr as of Wednesday, but Stoddard County Prosecutor Russell Oliver has shown a willingness to pursue criminal charges against former clergy members.
Diocese knew in 2002 of ex-Springfield priest's sex abuse allegation. Why wasn't he fired?
In March, Oliver's office filed statutory sodomy and sexual abuse charges against retired priest Frederick Lutz in connection with a case from 2000.
Oliver told the News-Leader on Wednesday that his office received the report on Father Carr a month or two ago and has launched an ongoing investigation.
The Lutz case was referred to the Stoddard County Prosecutor's Office as part of a statewide investigation by the Missouri Attorney General's Office into clergy sexual abuse. It does not appear this case involving Carr is a product of the attorney general investigation.
Father Carr worked as an associate pastor at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton parish in Springfield starting in December 1982. He lives in St. Louis.
Diocese spokeswoman Leslie Eidson said then-Bishop James Johnston placed Carr on administrative leave in 2008 for "boundary violations" and what the bishop considered imprudent behavior, but there had been no allegations of sexual abuse against Father Carr at that time.
Eidson said the sexual abuse allegation came to the diocese in December, and the review board convened on March 30 to discuss the case. She said a letter was sent to Stoddard County authorities on Feb. 21.

The diocese asked anyone with information regarding inappropriate behavior by Carr or any priest to contact law enforcement and the Diocesan Office of Child and Youth Protection at 417-866-0841 or by email at childandyouthprotection@dioscg.org. There is also a TIPS portal on the diocese's website dioscg.org.
The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests called on the Diocese of Springfield-Cape Girardeau to release more information about the allegations involving Father Carr and for Bishop Edward Rice to visit each parish where Carr worked to publicize the news and encourage victims and witnesses to come forward.
