"It is thought that many MEPs would have been reluctant to begin a process of amending the regulation given that it might have delayed another aspect of the rules - the abolishment of mobile data roaming charges."
That probably should have been the first paragraph of every article (8th in this one) about these amendments. I can see why a politician would value abolishment of mobile data roaming charges more.
Bundling very different laws into one package is an old trick. You wouldn't vote against the "Keyhole-Spying & Non-Puppy-Killing Act" right? In this case telcos were against losing those sweet roaming charges so at least they got several exemptions from net neutrality in the process.
How about making smaller laws? First do one abolishing the roaming charges, and don't slow it down by attaching anything else to it. Then do another with the net neutrality stuff.
The problem here is that this was badly put together legislation. I don't think the idea of net neutrality was actually debated at all in reality. The need to abolish mobile data roaming charges in the EU was front and centre of the needs of these MEP's constituents minds and they would not vote this down, it would've been mad for them politically. Whoever wrote this piece of legislation is to blame here.
I would be very surprised if this didn't come back for debate in another form prior to it's adoption.
That's not how it works. Amendments to the proposed law are voted individually, there was never any danger of having to reject the whole law.
There were amendments to close each of the problematic loopholes regarding net neutrality, but they didn't pass the vote.
There is if the set of legislators that are in favor of the end to mobile roaming charges doesn't overlap exactly with the set of legislators in favor of net neutrality. In that case, the number of people who vote in favor of the package might be the intersection of the people in favor of the two things, which is strictly smaller than the set of people in favor of one or the other.
> Whoever wrote this piece of legislation is to blame here.
But just that is politics!
I heard that now for years, that this is the best practice approach, that is used in many countries: Put together one bad rules with one or two good laws. And when you want to be sure, that the whole package will be voted for, just put some poison-pill in -- something that will bring up (stupid) voters up against those people that vote against it.
That's why you have amendments.
We are experiencing speed problems to many servers. Our broadband is BT Fibre. While accessing some sites is very fast, sometimes others are slow.
For example downloading from Bitbucket from the UK is peaking on 600kB/s, then after a minute, it's dropping to 60kB/s, then stays there for the following 15 minutes.
The same content downloaded from one of our servers in a UK data centre stays on 600kB/s.
I think this is a clear evidence that the service provider is cutting the bandwidth after a minute, which is not what we paid for.
Can you switch to Andrews & Arnold? They're a niche ISP in the UK, targeting tech-savvy users and businesses. They give you IPv6 for free and they're XKCD/806 compliant. (No affiliation, just a happy customer when I lived in the UK.).
I was too cheap to use them when I was in the UK, as they cost a bit more, but the other guys I worked with rated them really highly. I would pay the extra for them these days.
Why would BT throttle bitbucket of all things? They don't have a competing service and bitbucket's share of BT bandwidth must be negligible.
I'm not sure it's BT or somebody else. Traceroute says there are 20 devices my connection is going through. Somebody working for ISPs or Bitbucket could confirm why some sites are fast, others are slower after a minute, I can only guess.
Residental broadband has higher contention than commercial, so it's hard to claim that. Could just be your neighbours streaming Netflix.
Maybe Bitbucket is throttling? I mean it's a possibility.
That's the most likely, since that comment stating that they are downloading a big content.
It's from page 19, Pilar Del Castillo Vera section.
Why hide it behind a link shortener?
How do you read this document?
Looks like the PPE and S&D didn't disappoint and voted en masse against it. Sigh.
This is awful to read. We need a tool to make votes clear and searchable. Is there a database of them someplace we could query?
At first I was very sad when I read the article.
However I hope that we, as European, could take this as a challenge and come out with a way to completely obfuscate the web traffic, wich I believe will be extremely important in the coming year.
What would that accomplish? The way telcos already attempted to do that is to assign higher priority to services (like IPTV) of preferred partners (or of course their own). Encryption just means that your companies service gets traffic shaped into oblivion.
Essentially, if it is not encrypted, corporations can fight for regulation to increase the barrier to entry for rival products and services, and we know they will. If it is encrypted, such regulations are futile.
But only the non-paying corporations have an incentive to encrypt. The ones that pay will either not encrypt, or they'll attach some kind of tag to the ISP saying where the packet comes from. ISPs can safely assign all encrypted, non-tagged packets to the slow lane.
So how do they explain refusal to correct obvious anti neutrality parts of this "neutrality" legislation? By too much money from ISPs in their pockets?
There's lots of competition in Europe, so net neutrality doesn't matter. It's just extra government regulation in an area that doesn't need it. Think of it as a symptom rather than a problem.
Tell that to companies lost revenue thanks to faulty QoS at the hands of ISP.
League of legends had customers receive a latency increase from about 40ms in average to 3-5 seconds during a period of about 6 months, which was caused by faulty QoS code by a top 3 ISP in Sweden. Is that fair competition?
What about the other side? - the next potential Netflix competitor probalby won't come from Europe with regulations like these.
That's not what I meant - it was just an example.
The above comment only considered the perspective of an end user, saying that due to good infrastructure and lots competition net neutrality isn't an issue. However I'm more worried about the businesses at the other end of the line, the content and service providers who also have to deal with ISPs. If the market leader in a certain category can afford to buy faster lanes, it's much harder for potential competitors to enter the market, hence the Netflix analogy.
Netflix could not become what it is today without net neutrality.
Really in the UK this isn't that true. Bear in mind that you are usually locked into an 18 month contract. Also bear in mind that lots of people don't live in cities.

To build "," J.C. Hyke chose Sandvox. He chose the "Night Breeze" design for the site. People may want to visit the site if they are looking for original country music.
/jchyke.com is a website where people can find great country music from an independent unsigned artist. A singer songwriter that you have not heard of yet. You can listen to my music, see photos, watch a music video, see where and when I'm doing my live shows, buy my CD or some T-shirts, download my tunes, or even make a donation for my next album.
My target audience is 18 to 75 anywhere in the world. Music is universal and people love any genre as long as it's great music.
It's so easy for my now that I will be able to change it up all the time and make it interesting for returning fans of the site.
I liked the background color of the design and especially the photo at the top. It's this really cool kind of etherial shot of light and dark curves and little twirley things. It's hard to describe other than it looks really cool.
I was able to integrate my paypal account with my site. I created buttons on paypal and then copied the HTML. Then I created a Raw HTML pagelet and pasted the code in there. Once I got it down, I was able to add in another 4 buttons with ease. Now I have 5 things for people to purchase on my site, just like a professionally designed site would have.
This website was created by J.C. Hyke of Pasadena, CA,USA.


Licensing (applying the license key) must be done at least once per computer system (and/or per user - depending on license). The license key unlocks the downloaded demo version - no additional download is needed. Applying the license key can be done manually with the help of the license dialog, by programmatic licensing (API call) and by licensing via INI File. By default the license is stored in the registry on a per user basis (except with file, HKLM or memory based licensing).
The online activation unlocks the product by downloading an individually issued license key from the TEC-IT server. Note that the activation key grants you access to online activation but is not identical to the final license key. This one will be stored in the software product or system after successful online activation. Site licenses allow multiple online activation requests.
The license key is issued for your product (main version), licensee name and license type (kind, number). Depending on the product there are different possibilities for applying the license key (license dialog, API-Call, Ini-File, HKLM Registry Key).
For this purpose there are Registry- and INI-File based methods available - please contact our support (support@tec-it.com) for details.
It is necessary to license programmatically each time when your application is being started or before you create a bar code.
The license key of single licenses is bound to the system hardware (via the so called "System ID"). If the system ID changes due to a hardware change, a new license key is required. For online activation, you can renew the license key through the Self-Service Portal. For products without an online key please contact us.
The activation key which has been sent to you must be entered into the Activation / License dialog of the product (license menu in the software). After completing the license data (name, country, city, ZIP, email) you can request an individually issued license key online. The license key will be stored immediately on the system (usually in the registry/HKCU) and unlocks the product.
Depending on the license type, online activation can be carried out once or several times (per user / system).
The license key (sent to you by TEC-IT) has to be entered in the license dialog of the product. Please enter the license data exactly as submitted to you. Take care of spaces and upper/lowercase! To avoid mistakes you can use "copy & paste" if you have received the license key by email. The license-key must be applied to the product on each target system where you want to use the product.
You can open the license dialog (in most applications) by right-clicking on the ActiveX® Control.
You can license directly in your program code by calling the LicenseMe() function.
Call the LicenseMe() method from within your application each time when your program is getting started. This has to be done before you draw a barcode!
For users of an ActiveX® Control: when you call the LicenseMe() method you should take care that an instance of the control has been created (e.g. within load event of a form), otherwise you have to create an object.
More info about licensing can be found in the product documentation available in the Download Area of this site.
You may encounter the following problem: after entering the license key it is recognized (key valid) but not stored in the system. After restarting your application the product is unlicensed again.
For Developer Licenses (using a license key which starts with Mem:) you have to license the product within your program code. Just call the LicenseMe() function at startup of your application or before you draw the first barcode. Registry based licensing is not available for developer licenses (or Mem: prefixed licenses).
Each instance of TBarCode in ASP.NET must be licensed separately via program code. TBarCode .NET does not support licensing via registry key or ini file. But TBarCode OCX in ASP does support licensing through registry or ini file.
There maybe permission restrictions when reading or writing the Windows Registry. Because our product wants to store the license data in the Registry you have to check if your user account has sufficient permissions for the TEC-IT key.
You can change the permissions for TEC-IT keys with the registry editor - click here for a screenshot about the necessary settings.
In most cases license data is stored for the actual user (HKEY_CURRENT_USER) only. If you login as different user you may have to license again. A method for user independent licensing is available on request.
Depending on your UAC level (Vista, Windows 7) write access to registry HKey Local Machine may be inhibited (relevant for TConnector). This prevents from persistent licensing.
For special problems there is a possibility to load the license key through a preconfigured INI-File. Please contact our support if you have unsolved licensing problems.
The following information is valid only for TBarCode Version 10.2.2 and earlier. Starting with version 10.2.4 there is no separate licensing for 32 bit and 64 bit components anymore.
// are we in 32-bit mode?
// or in 64-bit process?
During Online-Activation of Barcode Studio you may see a SSL error message. You can try to confirm/override the error (e.g. Issuer Certificate) with Yes (Ignore) - but there maybe other errors (e.g. SSL Context error), which you cannot override.
Update your Barcode Studio installation to Version 15.11 or later. After that you can continue to use the online activation (as usual). Please consider proxy and firewall settings in your network. You can download the latest update here: Download Barcode Studio Update.
If you do not have a license for version 15 or you want to use an earlier version, you can use manual licensing as an alternative. This does not require online access to the activation server. If you do not have your license data at hand for manual licensing, please contact us with information about the licensee.


In case you haven't heard, the Brits voted for their country to leave the European Union. Whether that really occurs might remain to be seen, but there's no doubt the vote to exit the EU has already had a major impact on financial markets. As in, maybe wait a while before you look at your 401(k) values.
The answer is already yes. Well, sort of.
In case you've been living under a rock for the last few years, interest rates on home loans are low. They've been low. When we thought they were going to go higher, they stayed low. And after the Brexit vote, they went lower.
There was a statistic somebody came up with that showed that since the beginning of the year to now, rates have dropped low enough for a homebuyer to be able to afford a house with an 8-percent higher sales price. In other words, whatever your monthly payment was going to be on that $200,000 home you had your eye on in January, the same payment will get you a $216,000 home. It gives buyers some wiggle room.
And it was a crazy spring for home buying. Even though there were signs of the overall economy weakening, it was the strongest spring for home sales volume in a while. Lower rates only fuel the fire.
There will also likely be some international buyers who will turn to the U.S. for real estate investment as now it appears a safer play than in the U.K, or, maybe, anywhere in Europe. This in no way means the typical U.S. homebuyer is going to face any stiffer competition from foreign buyers. It's likely to affect commercial real estate investment the most, and maybe super high-end homes.
That said, a stronger dollar could also turn off international buyers. It would be safe to say that "destination" markets – the sand and sun states – will not attract as many wealthy buyers from the U.K.
There's also legitimate concern that the already-softening U.S. economy will become softer. There are American companies that will face adversity because they have operations in Europe. What happens when those companies start laying off workers? What happens when stagnant wage growth here at home gets even more gummed up because of the problems overseas?
It's hard to predict the answers to those questions. What's easy to see, however, is a U.S. housing recovery that has endured some other unusual economic adversities and still chugged along.
One area of more concrete concern might be the availability of credit. I've written before that rising mortgage interest rates might actually help more people buy homes, as banks tend to loosen the purse strings when lending money is profitable. When rates are actually going lower, nothing's getting looser. At least not for purchase loans. Less-risky refinances are what banks turn to when the reward isn't as great, so homeowners in a position to refinance are actually probably in a pretty good position now.
Home sales are likely to continue strong, though price appreciation could slow as concerns for the overall economy produce fewer buyers.
Foreign investment in some high-demand areas will likely tail off, especially from investors in the U.K.
Lowered interest rates could tighten credit, although refinances should boom.
It remains to be seen how a U.K recession will affect U.S. companies. Worsening employment figures here always impact home sales.
So the answer to the original question, "Does Brexit affect U.S. home sales?" is probably yes. How soon and how much, as well as what, specifically, remains to be seen.


Since the banking crisis, it has become more difficult for many people in the UK to get loans. As banks become stricter with lending requirements, new financing options are entering the market. One that is gaining popularity is the pension loan. As its name implies, the pension of the borrower is used as security.
Borrowers who are willing to provide security for a loan have an expanded number of options. Several in-person or online lenders now offer a pension loan, including Pensionloans.org. Having the pension as collateral for the loan reduces the level of risk for the lender. As a result, loan terms are usually more attractive than for unsecured loans.
Online lenders make it easy for UK residents to apply for the loan on their Web sites. The Pensionloans.org site in particular provides individuals with information and guidance regarding the pension loan market in the UK. Visitors learn what this type of loan is, how it operates, and how to apply for financing. They can even arrange a free telephone call to receive advice from a pension loan professional.
Not only do many consumers find it easier to get this type of financing, they also discover that lending terms and conditions are more flexible. Some lenders issue approval just one day after an application is submitted. Borrowers may either repay the loan prior to its maturity date or allow the lender to take future pension payments as the repayment.
Some lenders will lend up to 50 percent of the future pension payments and borrowers determine the amount of the future pension payments that the lender may recoup each month. Money lent can be used for any legal purpose such as mortgage or bill payment or to consolidate debts. Pension loans have even helped some people start their own business.

Q: Visual Studio 2012 Remote Debugging: Invalid access to memory location I followed the instructions in this link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bt727f1t.aspx to install the remote debugger (2012) on my server where the application is running in hope to debug it remotely from my dev machine running visual studio 2012.
I cannot even get as far as viewing the list of processes to attach to on the remote machine.  I keep getting "Unable to connect to the Microsoft Visual Studio Remote Debugging Monitor named [name].  Invalid access to memory location".
I have managed to successfully connect a few times but then the attach fails immediately then I cannot connect again.
This is causing huge issues for me as I cannot remote debug anything.  I must be missing something glaring.  Please someone give me a solution.

A:
I've found the only way to correct this is by restarting Visual Studio.

Worked for me. I found it at this blog post about invalid access and remote debugging.

A: It turns out the one thing I missed was to tell Visual Studio where to find the .pdb symbols relating to the remote process.  To do this go to Tools -> Options -> Debugging then in the Symbol (.pdb) locations add the remote location to the pdb files.
To clarify, I was attaching fine but could not break into code.  Now I can.  Be aware though that there are other hurdles before you get to my stage where I was attaching to the process successfully but could not catch a breakpoint.

A: I recently had someone else report this and debugged the issue on their machine. The "Invalid access to memory location" errors are due to an issue in Windows, it can be addressed with this hotfix.

A: I have had this problem in VS 2012, 2013, 2015 and 2017. Based on other answers it is likely that the problem is related to running a 32 bit version of Visual Studio on a 64 bit PC. Sometimes, as others have recommended, restarting Visual Studio fixes the problem but the best solution I've found so far is to start Visual Studio without a solution, open Debug -> Attach to Process, change the Connection Target to the remove server and wait for the process list to load. Then Cancel, do not attach yet. Load your desired solution and then come back to Attach to Process and the remote process list will still be loaded. Connect to your desired process and everything should work properly from then on.

Celebrating Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month
May 1, 2015 at 10:00 AM ET by Kiran Ahuja
Today marks the beginning of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month.
Today marks the beginning of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the incredible diversity within our community and the significant contributions of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders to this nation. It is also a time to reflect on the trials and tribulations our community has overcome and the many challenges still faced, including barriers to equal access to education, employment, and health care, as well as ongoing struggles with discrimination. President Obama expresses this sentiment and more in his 2015 Presidential Proclamation for AAPI Heritage Month.
As part of the month, we will hold the White House Summit on AAPIs on May 12. This Summit will be an unprecedented and historic all-day convening of senior federal officials and leaders from across the country. The Summit will celebrate President Obama's leadership, showcase Administration policies and programs that have supported the AAPI community over the past six years, and outline efforts for the next two years and decades to come. Tune in live to the Summit at whitehouse.gov/aapi.
I am also pleased to share with you a video message from myself and Konrad Ng, Director of the Smithsonian Asian Pacific Center. We invite you to share this video and to join the conversation online with #APAEverywhere.
Kiran Ahuja is Executive Director of the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders.

The Sunday Post AKA What's on my (Mostly Virtual) Nightstand 11-15-15 – Escape Reality, Read Fiction!
The Gratitude Giveaways Hop started at midnight, and runs through the end of the month. That means there is plenty of time to get in on a chance at a $10 Gift Card or $10 Book. Plus, there are plenty of other fabulous bookish prizes at all the other stops on the hop!
Home is very definitely where the heart is. We've been gone most of the last two weeks, and we've missed our own bed, our own stuff, and especially our own kitties. LaZorra stuck to us like glue all night last night, at least as far as we could tell. We were so out of it that we slept in this morning. If we didn't have tickets to see Adam and Jamie (Mythbusters) tonight at the Fabulous Fox Theatre, I think we'd just stay in and stay in our jammies all day today. It is SO GOOD to be home.
I didn't get a lot read last week. We were in Cincinnati trying to get my mom settled at her new assisted-living apartment, with limited success. The only things I read were the rest of Anna Hackett's marvelous Hell Squad series so far, and a very long and absorbing piece of Dragon Age fanfiction at Archive of Our Own. If you like very romantic fanfiction, and Dragon Age, I can't recommend Finding Joy by NicePumpkinSpice highly enough. I was so lost in it that it helped make the week bearable.
That's interesting you were just in Cincinnati – I live right next to there. 🙂 I hope you enjoy Mythbusters live. That should be fun. But yeah, staying in your jammies all day sounds good too.

Amr Waked (árabe egipcio: عمرو واكد; nacido el 12 de abril de 1973) es un actor de cine, televisión y teatro. Es mejor conocido para el público internacional y en Hollywood por su papel en la película de 2005 Syriana. Otras destacadas interpretaciones incluyen a un jeque yemení llamado Muhammad en Pesca del Salmón en el Yemen, Pierre Del Río en Lucy, del director Luc Besson, y el papel de Ibn al-Jatib en el documental Los constructores de la Alhambra, de la directora Isabel Fernández.

Biografía
Waked nació el 12 de abril de 1973 en El Cairo, Egipto. Está graduado por la Universidad Americana de El Cairo. Realizó teatro desde 1992 al 2002. En un principio, solo era un actor irregular, trabajando en su momento como corredor de bolsa, antes de finalmente dedicarse a su carrera como actor. Waked se unió a las protestas de Egipto en contra del gobierno en 2011 y también se unió a las protestas de junio de 2013 en Egipto contra Mohamed Morsi.

Carrera
Su primer papel importante fue en Ashab wallah business (2002) (somos amigos o solo un negocio), en el que retrató el papel de "Gehad" tan bien que muchos espectadores salieron de las salas de cine al creer que era en realidad un actor palestino, en lugar de uno egipcio. Su primer papel protagonista fue como Ahmed en Deil el Samaka (La cola del Pez) de 2003, y en 2005 trabajó junto a George Clooney en la película Syriana, por lo que en 2006 ganó un "Premio Especial para los árabes en el Cine Internacional' en el Festival Internacional de Cine de El Cairo. Waked se unió al elenco de la serie de televisión egipcia "Lahazat Harega" ("Momentos Críticos") en 2007, participando en 32 episodios de la primera temporada.

En 2008, se unió al elenco de la serie de televisión de BBC/HBO House of Saddam para interpretar al yerno de Saddam Hussein, Hussein Kamel. Debido a que el rol de Saddam Hussein fue interpretato por el actor Israelí Yigal Naor, Waked enfrentó un castigo por parte de la Unión de Actores de Egipto, que se oponían a la normalización de relaciones con Israel. El sindicato amenazó con prohibir que todos sus proyectos futuros en Egipto.

En 2009, fue coanfitrión de la 33.ª edición del Festival Internacional de Cine de El Cairo, y en 2010 volvió a unirse al elenco de Lahazat Harega. Se unió a las estrellas de Hollywood Matt Damon, Jude Law, Kate Winslet, y Gwyneth Paltrow en la película de 2011, Contagio y co-protagonizó en la película Británica" la Pesca del Salmón en el Yemen con Emily Blunt, Ewan McGregor, y Kristin Scott Thomas. También co-protagonizó en Lucy junto a Morgan Freeman y Scarlett Johansson.

En enero de 2023, Waked participó junto a la directora Isabel Fernández en una mesa redonda celebrada en la sede de Casa Árabe en Madrid con motivo de la proyección de la película Los constructores de la Alhambra, en la que participa en el papel de Ibn al-Jatib.

Google Sued By Justice Dept., Eight States for Antitrust Violations in Digital Ad Market
Chris Eggertsen
The Justice Department and eight states sued Google on Tuesday, alleging that its dominance in digital advertising harms competition as well as consumers and advertisers — including the U.S. government.
The government alleges that Google's plan to assert dominance has been to "neutralize or eliminate" rivals through acquisitions and to force advertisers to use its products by making it difficult to use competitors' products.
The antitrust suit was filed in federal court in Alexandria, Virginia. Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a press conference Tuesday that Google's dominance in the ad market means fewer publishers are able to offer their products without charging subscription or other

Police suspect 18-year-old driver was under the influence after crash that tore vehicle in half on 29th Avenue
Nov. 30, 2022 Updated Wed., Nov. 30, 2022 at 8:34 p.m.
A driver of this vehicle lost control as he was heading east on 29th Avenue and struck the Bank of America sign on 2504 E. 29th Ave. on Friday morning. The driver was ejected as the car split in two from the impact with the sign post. He was transported to Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center. (COLIN MULVANY/THE SPOKESMAN-REVI)
By Quinn Welsch quinnw@spokesman.com(509) 459-5469
Police officers are investigating the driver of a vehicle that was torn in half last Friday during a high-speed crash near the corner of 29th Avenue and Southeast Boulevard for potential DUI, according to new details about the crash released in search warrant documents.
The 18-year-old driver was traveling east on 29th Avenue at about 10 a.m. on Nov. 25 in a white Acura Integra when a Spokane police officer clocked the vehicle going 67 mph in a 30 mph zone. The driver continued to speed down 29th Avenue through the intersection with Southeast Boulevard, but lost control of the vehicle – after police began their pursuit – and crashed into a shopping center sign.
The front of the car, including the steering wheel, ripped apart from the rest of the car on impact and came to a rest near the sign. The back of the car continued into the parking lot of the nearby Rosauers store.
The driver, who was not wearing a seat belt, was thrown from the car and landed in the driveway entrance of a shopping center parking lot where the pursuing officer located him. His shoes had been thrown off in the crash and landed in the debris field.
The driver was taken to Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center with non life-threatening injuries. He admitted to driving the vehicle, the search warrant document said.
One officer said that the driver didn't remember what happened and kept asking him questions, the search warrant document said. However, it wasn't clear if this was due to drugs or a head injury, the documents said.
The driver told police he regularly smokes marijuana, but said he did not that day. Police requested a blood sample to test for drugs.
Police said there is probable cause to charge the driver with attempting to elude and DUI. Charges had not been filed as of Wednesday afternoon.

Q: How to prevent REST API misuse by adding random token or string and validating later on in Laravel 5 I have laravel based Website. I have to port website into android app. For that I have to create REST API for User management(User Registration, Password forgotten and Login).
For registration I could send json in the form  of

{   "email" :"john.doe@gmail.com",   "password" : "secretPassword" }

But then API could be exploited with the help of bots. I am thinking of preventing it by sending some random token just Laravel does in forms(CSRF token). But I am not able to think how I will achieve that.
So how do I generate some token in laravel when users request to create new User and validate it upon getting that data-response?

Women and the young are being left in the dark by the Brexit debate
New research suggests that the British media's coverage of the EU referendum is failing to reach groups outside of middle-aged to elderly men.
Josiah Mortimer
Credit: Leave.EU
There are now less than four months to go until the EU referendum. Yet all the signs are that the hard facts of the debate are not seeping through to the public. So far the discussion has been dominated by internal party politics and personalities – where an MP backing the in or out side means a media-dominating rift in this or that party. The debate, when not focusing on individuals and spats, has largely been confined to stat-throwing on either side.
Last month Mike Berry argued on OurBeeb that "the public is currently hampered by an information deficit which threatens their ability to make an informed decision at the ballot box". Berry noted that the Electoral Commission recently found that most voters' "personal understanding of how the EU worked was low" and that they felt "under-informed about the EU as an institution, as well as about the arguments for and against the UK remaining a member". At the same time, research has found that EU-related reporting outside of summits and elections is "relatively sparse." The result is that the referendum becomes a Westminster parlour game – rather than the crucial constitutional matter which it is.
We know that, when it comes to European referendums, political information conditions the way people vote. Those with high levels of political awareness rely more on their own informed views, rather than government assessments or partisan cues – something verified by the experience of Danish, Norwegian and Irish referendums. And while it is thought that referendum campaigns increase political knowledge, findings released this week have added to the growing evidence of the very low base of political awareness, even at this late stage. The polling, by BMG Research, shows that only one in six people feel well informed about the upcoming EU referendum.
Breaking it down, only 12 per cent of the public feel 'well informed', while only four per cent feel 'very well informed' about the June vote. In contrast, nearly half (46 per cent) feel poorly or very poorly informed about the vote. This falls to 38 per cent among those who say they will definitely vote in the referendum, rising to 61 per cent among those who say they probably will not vote. The disparity suggests there is a link between how much people feel they know about the referendum debate and how likely they are to vote.
Released today, on International Women's Day, the BMG polling also shows a huge gender gap. Men are twice as likely to feel well informed than women (21% vs 10%). While there are a range of factors at play, it suggests the campaigns – and media coverage of those campaigns – aren't reaching out of the Westminster bubble or targeting groups outside of middle-aged to elderly men.
There is also a serious generational divide – more than double the number of 55-64 year olds feel well informed (21%) about the referendum compared to 18-24 year olds (10%), suggesting that young people will be less likely to vote on polling day – something that is already a serious problem in general elections but may now be exacerbated.
The Electoral Reform Society are launching a body of work on the EU vote, 'A Better Referendum,' in part because these findings, among other studies, highlight the need for a deeper and more informative debate around the referendum. The five main recommendations for the EU referendum campaign call for:
The Remain and Leave campaigns to commit to taking part in televised debates on the EU referendum
The campaigns to make voter registration a key plank of their plans
The campaigns to support initiatives aimed at giving citizens a chance to debate the issues in more depth, for example by providing speakers for local debates
The campaigns to commit to a 'Ceasefire Week', where both sides only put out the positive cases for their arguments
Media organisations, relevant public bodies and non-governmental organisations to commit to providing balanced coverage of the debate, including clear and comprehensible facts on Britain's relationship with the EU
The mounting evidence about the worrying state of informed and deep public debate (or lack thereof) ahead of June 23rd should serve as a wake-up call to politicians, parties, public bodies and everyone involved in the referendum to do all they can to boost public knowledge and engagement in this crucial vote.
During the Scottish independence referendum, we witnessed what can happen when people feel informed about an important decision and empowered to take part. People do want the full information they need to get to grips with the EU referendum debate, and for the space to have those discussions, but it is so far clearly lacking. The campaigns have a responsibility to listen to voters and engage with them, as well as to broadcast their views. Moreover, in a close referendum, turnout will be key – so it's in the campaigns' interest to provide a platform for a rich and stimulating debate.
There is a clear link between how well informed people feel and their likelihood to vote. So the five recommendations set out above could – if adopted – help open up a real conversation among the public about the issues surrounding Britain's membership of the European Union.
This will require commitment from media organisations and others to put forward both sides of the debate - in clear and understandable ways. But it will also require getting across the wide range of sides within the camps themselves – after all, the ballot paper may only have 'Remain/Leave', but there are a world of perspectives within each campaign. Over and above their legal obligations for impartiality, broadcasters and outlets - in particular public service broadcasters like the BBC - have a duty to emphasise the issues over the parlour games. And time is not on our side - they need to get this across in the few short months available.
Now let's take the conversation beyond Westminster and Fleet Street to town halls and communities across the UK.

Capitol Hill Lockdown Follows Report of Shots Fired Buildings on Capitol Hill have been sealed while law enforcement officers investigate a report that shots may have been fired in the garage of the Rayburn Office Building. Madeleine Brand speaks with Brian Naylor, reporting from Capitol Hill.
There were reports of gunfire on Capitol Hill today. Local and federal law enforcement officers are investigating.
Joining me now is NPR Capitol Hill correspondent Brian Naylor.
And Brian, there was a news conference just a short time ago. What did police say?
Madeleine, Police Sergeant Kimberly Schneider, of the Capitol Police Department, said that there was a report of shots fired inside the Rayburn garage. The Rayburn Building is one of the three House office buildings that house members of Congress's offices and their staff. The garage is located directly under the building. And someone called in a report of shots.
Since then, there have been police swarming the area. There are tactical teams inside the building. The building itself has been locked down, as they try to figure out exactly what was the source of this noise.
NAYLOR: The noise there, police, fire trucks coming on the scene right now.
BRAND: Any reports of injuries?
NAYLOR: And I'm having trouble hearing you, Madeleine.
NAYLOR: There were -- there's very little detail. There have been police around the area all morning. For a while, the Capitol Building itself was locked down, but that's been reopened. And right now they seem to be containing their search to the Rayburn Building itself. It's a Friday before a congressional recess, so there are not as many folks as might be around on a mid-weekday. And the House itself was not in session. So it's hard to know exactly how many people.
But it's quite a large building. There are a lot of offices, several hundred offices. So there is probably several hundred to a thousand people inside the building today.
BRAND: And, Brian, any reports of injuries at all?
NAYLOR: No, there've been no reports of any injuries. They haven't found anything, basically. They haven't found anybody injured. They haven't -there's been no finding of any shell casings or anything of that matter.
There's a couple of things going on inside the building. First of all, there is a police firing range in the basement. There's also a lot of construction work that's going on. And so, you know, it's possible that a car backfired or somebody didn't close the door on the firing range. But until they get that all figured out, I think the police are going to continue to search.
BRAND: So it hasn't even been confirmed that it was gunfire at this point.
NAYLOR: That's right, just the sounds of gunfire. And they haven't found any casings. They haven't had any reports of anybody suspicious. I should say that in order to get into the garage itself you have to present a Capitol Hill pass. They inspect your car. You don't go through a metal detector until you actually enter the building itself and exit the garage and enter the building. So it's possible somebody - it's conceivable it could have been a gun, but not just anyone can walk in off the street into the building.
BRAND: All right. Well, thank you very much, Brian Naylor from Capitol Hill.
And NPR will be following this story as we learn more.

Her research focuses on dielectrophoretic characterization and separation of cells, particularly M1 and M2 types of macrophages.
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM), one of the key players in tumor microenvironment, are involved in tumor development and progression in many cancers. Here, we will present carbon electrode dielectrophoresis (carbon-DEP) as a characterization tool to identify and separate U937 monocytes and U937-differentiated macrophages. First, we will differentiate monocytes to obtain macrophages. Next, we will apply carbon-DEP to determine specific crossover frequencies as signatures. Since DEP does not require any pre-labeling for the cells, it will allow direct characterization of cells based on their physical intrinsic properties without altering their genetic and phenotypic properties. Finally, we will verify our results using traditional assays. When we obtain their dielectrophoretic signatures, we will isolate and enrich them for high-throughput biochemical analysis.

Julius Honka not among Dallas Stars' qualifying offers, former top pick becomes free agent
Dallas issued offers to seven restricted free agents on Monday morning.

The Stars issued qualifying offers to seven restricted free agents Monday morning, retaining negotiating rights with forwards Nick Caamano, Joel Kiviranta and Adam Mascherin, defensemen Joseph Cecconi, Ben Gleason and Jerad Rosburg, and goaltender Colton Point.
Defenseman Julius Honka was not qualified, making him an unrestricted free agent. The move concluded Honka's time with the organization after he was a first-round pick in 2014. The relationship between Honka and the Stars took a downturn the last three seasons, beginning when he was a healthy scratch for the final few months of the 2018-19 season.
He requested a trade at training camp the next year, played a season in Finland and then returned to North America with the Stars. He played 17 games with AHL affiliate Texas before going back to Finland for personal reasons. During the season, he also passed through waivers unclaimed.
Honka, 25, signed with Luleå HF of Sweden's SHL.
Kiviranta, Cecconi and Rosburg have arbitration rights. The deadline to qualify players was 4 p.m. Monday.

Producer Steve Wilk shares insights into the technology powering musical creativity
We're consuming and creating more music than ever before – and this is all down to the technology powering the industry. Our Head of Creative Steve Wilk takes a closer look at the innovative tools making this prolific production possible.
Every day, 40,000 songs are uploaded to Spotify. This amounts to over 14.6 million a year, and this figure has doubled in just six years. Yet these numbers pale in comparison to the amount of data being created and consumed. In 2018, it was estimated that each person on earth will create 1.7MB of data each second by 2020. That's 2.5 quintillion bytes per day – 2,500,000,000,000,000,000 bytes. Rising to 463 exabytes by 2025. To put this in context, that's 40 times the amount of stars in the known universe. And 90% of all this data has been created in the last few years alone.
As social media, tech and music intersect, the tools we use to create music must reflect the usage of consumers and this new industry we're in. There was a time where all the music and audio we heard would have been created in a studio. While this was great fun for the creators and full of lots of cool equipment, it's expensive, time-consuming, and very inefficient.
When we see pictures of fully equipped studios with mixing desks, there's no denying it looks amazing. But many engineers shudder thinking of the recall sheets needed to document every single knob, dial, fader, and switch in the room, for every song mixed, ever. When making amendments to mixes, it's painstakingly slow. How would one do this for 40,000 songs a day? It's quite simply impossible, which is why many studios have since moved to a hybrid digital/analog setup to meet the demands of the day.
I was told, Frank Sinatra would come to Capitol Studios and listen - for the first time - to the arrangement of a new song played live by the orchestra. He would then give his recommendations, and the orchestrator would rewrite the piece while Frank, the musicians and the studio engineers waited. The copyist would scramble to rewrite the edited sheet music for each orchestra member by hand. Then, they tried again. And Frank would make his recommendations, again.
You can imagine how this process would be adored by those being paid by the hour, and by the studio owner. But today this is entirely unrealistic. This past year we all heard Billie Eilish and Finneas' hit songs which were created in their bedrooms – and I didn't hear a single person complain that they could hear the sound of Billie's home studio. The recent paradigm shift means that home studio recordings are now more common than studio sessions.
Since the 90s and 00s, the audio and music world has been working hard to prove that the digital version of a device is just as good as the original hardware. Therefore, most digital tools were aimed at recreating something that already exists – amps, synths, compressors, equalizers, reverbs, delays and so on. But in the past few years, companies from all over the world have developed tools for today's creators. These advances look not to the past, but the future – utilising machine learning, artificial intelligence and a lot of creativity.
Musiio
Musiio uses artificial intelligence to sort and categorise vast music libraries, making discovery for accurate for professionals and consumers.
Oeksound Sooth2 and Spiff
This dynamic, automatic, resonance suppressor handles many time-consuming tasks instantly, and can tame a harsh voice or 808 clap instantly – all in real-time.
Named after the famous Icelandic waterfall, this intelligent equalizer works in real-time to create separation and clarity in your audio.
Xtrax Stems
An app designed to separate a stereo file, isolating music, bass, drums and voice, which is great for remixing. While this sounds like voodoo, the code behind separating audio sources via unsupervised machine learning is as follows – also known as the cocktail party algorithm.
[W,s,v]=svd((repmat(sum(x.*x,1),size(x,1),1).*x)*x');
Roli Seaboard
This is the keyboard: reimagined. This device uses MPE midi protocol to give a 5D touch to the keyboard, allowing players to shake and swipe while performing on the keys. It's compatible with certain soft synths and DAWs, and most importantly, is a lot of fun.
Room correction software, which also includes a version to correct headphones and SoundID. I suggest everyone give it a try, and listen to Spotify or Apple Music with your tweaked headphones. The difference is clear to hear.
This replaces the subwoofer for creators working at night, or in noise sensitive environments. It converts low frequencies to high fidelity vibrations that you can feel, and can be worn as a backpack by touring musicians using In-ear monitors – as seen on Finneas and Billie Eilish.
Vochlea
Translating a voice signal to midi information, this tech creates music from the input of your voice. Based on the preset, you'll hear back drums, synths, bass and more.
A live collaboration music studio app, bridging the gap in music creation, looping, and social networking.
Musiio uses artificial intelligence to sort and categorise vast music libraries, making discovery more accurate for professionals and consumers.
Oeksound Soothe2 and Spiff
These are just some examples of how the tech industry is changing the way we create, consume and find music- and the list goes on and on. As I write this, Spotify has patented a Karaoke tool with Auto-tune – so you'll soon be able to turn down the real vocal on your favourite songs and sing along, in tune. It's such an exciting time to be in the industry, and I can't wait to hear what the future holds.

Teaching and learning about the Holocaust
"We share a commitment to encourage the study of the Holocaust in all its dimensions. We will promote education about the Holocaust in our schools and universities, in our communities and encourage it in other institutions."
– Article 5 of the Stockholm Declaration
Advancing Holocaust education worldwide
Holocaust education is a critical part of advancing a world that remembers the Holocaust, a world without genocide. The Holocaust can be a complex and difficult topic to teach about, however, and doing so in a way that is based in fact and encourages critical thinking is essential. The IHRA supports the development of educationally sound approaches to teaching about the Holocaust – for both students at school and professionals at work.
The IHRA's Education Working Group
"We, the IHRA Member Countries, lead efforts to promote education, remembrance and research on the Holocaust and the genocide of the Roma to counter the influence of historical distortion, hate speech and incitement to violence and hatred."
Made up of international experts in pedagogy, the IHRA's Education Working Group (EWG) encourages best practices around the commitments to advance Holocaust education that each IHRA Member Country makes when they commit to the Stockholm Declaration and the 2020 IHRA Ministerial Declaration.
In addition to leading research on teaching and learning about the Holocaust, the EWG has developed Recommendations to help guide educators and policymakers when they develop curricula and training programs.
Through the EWG, the IHRA has also led a series of successful professional development programs in Moldova and El Salvador, both Observer Countries to the IHRA. These efforts have led to the development of an action plan by the government of Moldova on exhibitions, education, memorialization, and curricula about the Holocaust; and the commitment by the Ministry of Education in El Salvador to include – for the first time ever – education about the Holocaust in its national curriculum.
The current Chair of the IHRA's Education Working Group is Sue Hampel (Australia).
Participant at the IHRA seminar on Holocaust education in El Salvador held on 9 January 2017. LUIS PAREDES.
IHRA Recommendations for Teaching and Learning about the Holocaust
The IHRA's updated Recommendations help educators, teacher trainers, and policymakers develop high-quality and fact-based educational curricula on the Holocaust.
The IHRA's educational materials provide educators with expert guidance on how to teach about the Holocaust and the genocide of the Roma.

I have known the Rev Simon Holloway for a number of years. He was the vicar at St Wilfred's in Horley, Surrey where we keep a UK base. He, & his wife Pauline, came to stay with us for a holiday in Alsancak about three years ago. Much to our surprise he returned to Cyprus a few months later to become the Chaplain for Ayia Napa! Simon & Pauline have stayed with us this week during the set up and production of this musical.
been brought to Cyprus by Roger with professional musicians and singers from the UK taking part along with Devon Brown, part of the Cyprus team, who plays a leading role.
The show has been presented in Larnaca and Famagusta at the Raif Rauf Denktaş Centre where there were over 100 people present and tonight, the 19th November I went along to St Andrews Church Kyrenia where again, around a hundred folk attended. The musical was actually performed within the church, which gave it a very authentic feel with the stone arches & windows. It was a brilliant performance and I very much look forward to Roger & his team returning again to St Andrews's, Kyrenia.
The show will also be shown in Limassol on 22nd November and 24th November in Nicosia.
As well as conducting the performances of 'Two Sisters and a Funeral', Roger Jones will be leading worship seminars for local churches in Larnaca, Limassol and Paphos, and a member of his team, Devon Brown who plays the part of Lazarus, will be appearing in 'An Audience with Devon Brown' in Ayia Napa and Paphos.
For more information about this and future events please view the website www.cmm.org.uk/cyprus13 or email: simonholloway55@yahoo.co.uk or ring 97839349 (Cyprus).
We would like to thank the Rev Simon Holloway and " Two Sisters and a Funeral in Cyprus" on Facebook for sharing pictures which have helped create this article.

Even weight loss… the list goes on!
The Biocompatibility Hair Analysis Test and Wellness programme can be just what you're looking for to finally get some effective solutions that can totally restore good health. If you're not getting good enough results from your usual naturopath or practitioner, or are they're just taking a Band-Aid approach, then it's time to try something new.
The program is a 6 month wellness programme to help you get well. The first step is to sort out your diet and eliminate foods and chemicals that are aggravating your symptoms and all that's required is one small hair sample. The sample is sent away to a laboratory on the Sunshine Coast for testing. This is not medical allergy testing, but uses testing equipment based on energetics developed over the last 30 years by an experienced natural health practitioner.
Metals such as gold, silver and aluminium plus more.
There is even a special list for babies and pets.
This test takes all the guess work out of what food or product is good or bad for YOU. It's a personal and individual test that can tell you exactly what you can eat so that you can feed your body correctly. This allows your body to repair effectively as your immune system is able to operate more efficiently.
The test is safe, painless and accurate. It involves no needles or blood samples – just a piece of your hair!
All you need to do is come in for an initial appointment and supply approximately a 2cm long x 1cm width of hair along with the order form. When received the order will be processed, then Julianne will contact you to make your next appointment. The hair sample takes approximately 5 working days to be processed, and then your full report will be ready.
During your initial consultation you will receive an outline of what the hair analysis will consist of. Your second treatment you will receive your fully individualised and comprehensive report listing all the foods and chemicals tested, along with supplemental general health information and further information which Julianne may recommend. This could be in the form of natural supplements – yes, a small range is tested such as fish oils, probiotics and protein powders – in order to formulate a specific diet protocol based around foods that do not impede your immune system. It's easy to integrate into your existing diet and lifestyle, and therefore easy to adopt and stick to.
You are able to track and monitor your own symptoms and then a 4 week follow-up consultation with Julianne is made to review your progress. This is when any troubleshooting, extra testing of any specific items or further supplementation if need be is discussed.
Results vary from person to person, with many people experiencing 60 – 80% improvement in 4 weeks. Some symptoms can be 100% eliminated after the 1st week!
Lasting changes will be experienced because it's working at the very root of the issue – NOT just masking your symptoms.
After 6 months, a retest is recommended to discover which foods have corrected and can now be reintroduced into your diet, which ones have not, and if any new foods need to be eliminated.
The Biocompatibility Hair Analysis and Wellness Programme takes a whole new approach to your health care. This is not a "one-size-fits-all" solution, but a personalised health programme that can unlock simple secrets to a healthier, happier you!
Please feel free to contact us on 0406 688 832 for further information regarding the test or program.


Condo Renovations Archives - York Construction Company Inc.
If you plan on renovating or remodeling your condominium there are certain things you should be aware of before you get underway. Since your living space resides in a building with other tenants it's important to follow the letter of the law as well as the building's rules and regulations.
We have listed some tips below which should come in hand when planning a condo renovation.
It's important to find out exactly if any type of building permits are required by the local government. You also need to ask the condominium board or owners if there are any specific rules and regulations you need to abide by. In general, each building is different and will have its own set of rules. For instance, you may have access to service elevators and only be allowed to work on the unit between certain hours or days due to noise restrictions. You also need to consider parking spots and loading zones for the contractors. In addition, if you plan on changing the flooring materials be sure to ask if the new material is allowed. In some cases, hardwood floors may be banned.
If you reside in a downtown condo building such as in Toronto, you may find parking for the contractors difficult to find. If they need to pay for parking in a nearby lot you'll need to include the cost in your overall budget.
Most condos are relatively small in size. You may need to schedule the workload so the contractors such as plumbers and electricians aren't getting in each other's way. You may also need to make enough room so the contractors can store their tools and building materials etc.
it's a good idea if you plan on experiencing some delays during the renovation project. These are almost always unavoidable for whatever reason. However, if they don't arise you'll be on schedule and certainly in a better frame of mind.
If you plan on renovating the condo for the purpose of resale you may be implementing some different ideas compared to renovating for personal use. If you plan on selling the unit you may want to speak to a real estate agent to find out which specific renovations will add to the resale value. These could include the kitchen and bathrooms. You also need to ask the contractor if any walls or other elements/fixtures of the condo simply can't be moved. If you plan on living in the unit then make sure you decorate it to suit your personal tastes.
Once the project gets underway you may need to be flexible in some areas. For example, you may decide you'd like more space so you may want to install smaller or fewer appliances or furniture.
Depending on the extent of the renovation, you may need to find other living quarters while the work is being carried out. In some instances, you'll be able to remain in the condo but may not be able to use the kitchen or bathroom for a specific period of time. You may need to stay with family/friends or even in a hotel. If you're lucky, the condo building may even have guest suites for rent.
When hiring the contractors you should be clear on just who is responsible for the cleanup. Discuss it with the contractor and make sure the clean up is or isn't included in the contract. If it isn't included, be sure to hire a cleanup crew or plan on doing it yourself.
York Construction is a contracting company in Toronto offering expert and custom designs for all types of condo renovation projects. We look forward to discussing your renovation ideas and plans and offering our professional opinion and help. If you have questions about your upcoming condo renovation project, you can contact us here and schedule your free consult.
How much does it cost to remodel a condo?
When it comes to remodeling a condominium, the exact cost of the project will depend on several factors including the size, location, building permits, financing fees, the existing condition of the unit and the cost of contractors. In general, prices can differ quite a bit across the country, the total costs here in Toronto could be very different for the same project in Regina. Before you begin you should check with the condo board to see exactly what types of renovations are allowed and if there are any special rules or bylaws that need to be followed. If the building is older you may also find it doesn't meet modern building codes in some instances. This could affect the cost of things such as heating systems as well as plumbing and electrical.
How Extensive Are Your Renovations?
Of course, the extent and quality of the remodeling job will also be a big factor. Do you plan on completely renovating the unit from top to bottom or just completing some minor renovations? This will affect the total cost of materials and labour as you may be including items such as removing walls, plumbing, doors, heating, air conditioning, windows, flooring, appliances, cabinets, countertops, furniture, lighting, and painting etc. Once you've decided the scope of the renovation project you can look for a contractor to do the work if one is needed. Of course, you can keep the costs down if you're able to complete some of the work yourself.
When you've located a suitable contractor you can explain exactly what your vision is for the renovation and then receive a quote on the work. If you're buying new appliances and/or furniture etc you can price those yourself by doing some comparison shopping and include them in the budget. The more existing items you decide to keep will result in lower costs and it will naturally be pricier if you decide to replace everything. The cost will also rise if you decide to secure a loan to pay for the work and materials since the odds are you'll need to pay interest on the borrowed amount. It's always a good idea to see where you can borrow money with the lowest interest fees.
You should be aware that many condo owners go over even the most detailed of budgets as they decide to add or change things to the renovation along the way. When working out your budget try not to overlook anything at all as you will need to pay for permits, fees, labour, materials, delivery and furniture etc. You may find nit's easier to create a budget for each room or area of the condo you're renovating. Also, if you're completely overhauling the unit it may not be inhabitable for awhile and you may need to stay somewhere else during the work and/or find yourself eating out at restaurants or with friends or family.
A true budget can only be created once you know the cost of everything involved in the job. This means if you're using a contractor to complete some or all of the work you're really going to need an accurate quote from him or her. Once you know the relative cost of their work you can add in the price of items you'll be taking care of such as appliances and furniture. Their quote will be the starting point and you can then control the remaining amount of the budget by carefully adding the cost of items to it. What you will ultimately spend in this portion of the budget will entirely depend on you.

All litter bins are supplied with rigid sheet steel liners as standard, which are intended to be directly filled. Liners are sufficiently robust to withstand frequent handling during emptying operations. The liner itself can weigh up to 10kg and when filled with refuse can become very heavy. The material, dimensions and weight of the rigid liners for each litter bin can be supplied on request.
If it is anticipated that the overall weight of the liner and refuse will regularly exceed the maximum safe lifting weight for refuse operatives, it is recommended that plastic refuse sacks are placed within the rigid liner to reduce the weight to be lifted and emptied. Refuse sacks can be held in place by folding over the open top of the rigid liner.
