Diesel needs to be part of the energy solution of our country. I know that it is far more fashionable in Washington to discuss plug in electric vehicles but those technologies are years away from broad-scale commercial viability.
Clean diesel is here today and can contribute immediately to reducing our dependance on foreign oil, reducing one of the major gasses that cause global warming, give consumers 20-30% better milage and a motor that will last longer!
Diesel is a "win-win" for the consumer, the automobile manufacturers and our country. All we need to do is update America's perception of the technology.
Good for Audi of America for trying to change our perception of diesel. I hope they succeed, that would be good for all of us.

Brother-Sister Charged With Crypto Fraud Worth $124 Million in US
The US Securities and Trade Commission (SEC) has charged siblings John and JonAtina Barksdale with fraud for deceptive investors as a result of untrue statements in a cryptocurrency scheme. The SEC has submitted charges versus the pair for allegedly "defrauding 1000's of retail investors out of additional than $124 million (about Rs. 950 crore) by means of two unregistered fraudulent choices of securities involving a electronic token called 'Ormeus Coin.'" The siblings presented Ormeus Coin by means of crypto exchanges, the SEC said, and promoted it through YouTube and roadshows close to the planet.
The criticism alleges that the siblings marketed 'Ormeus Coin' to investors considering that June 2017, when a multi-amount marketing and advertising business enterprise called Ormeus World also was began, which ongoing to function right up until April 2018. Ormeus World-wide presented and sold subscription offers "that provided Ormeus Coin and an expense in a crypto trading system."
The two have also been accused of "falsely" declaring that 'Ormeus Coin' was backed by a "$250 million (around Rs. 1,915 crore) crypto mining operation" that gained $5.4 million (approximately Rs. 41.5 crore) to $8 million (approximately Rs. 61 crore) in every month revenues. Even so, the siblings' mining operations finished in 2019 and produced only $3 million (approximately Rs. 23 crore) in full.
John Barksdale is also accused of web hosting roadshows "all-around the environment" to promote the pair's offerings. Tina Barksdale allegedly promoted the offerings via YouTube, press releases, social media posts, and "other advertising elements."
The grievance also mentioned that the defendants attempted to "preserve the [mining operation] fiction" by exhibiting a "wallet of an unrelated third social gathering exhibiting far more than $190 million (about Rs. 1,455 crore) in assets as of November 2021," when the real Ormeus wallets contained significantly less than $500,000 (about Rs. 4 crore). There are also promises of selling price manipulation and misuse of investor money for "own bills."
"We allege that the Barksdales acted as modern day-working day snake-oil salesmen, working with social media, promotional web-sites, and in-individual roadshows to mislead retail investors for their personal personal reward," Melissa Hodgman, affiliate director in the SEC's Division of Enforcement, claimed in the assertion.
The criticism was filed in the US District Court docket for the Southern District of New York and rates the Barksdales with violating the federal securities rules.
The Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York has also filed individual legal prices versus John Barksdale.
"As alleged, John Barksdale perpetrated a scheme to provide the cryptocurrency Ormeus Coin to buyers all over the globe by way of a net of lies," the business said in a statement.

Clayton mine is a silver-lead-zinc replacement deposit in the Bayhorse mining district in Custer County, Idaho. The deposit is hosted by dolomite and quartzite within a fault-bounded block of Paleozoic rocks east of the Idaho batholith. The mine was discovered in 1877, developed as an underground mine, and produced silver (218,692 kg), lead (39,358,903 kg), zinc (12,778,700 kg), copper (754,858 kg) and minor gold. Cobalt is also reported. The mine operated from 1935 to 1986. The geology of the area and descriptions of the 1920's- era workings are given. The mine was last operated by Clayton Silver Mines, Inc. through 1986. The modern mill at the mine site is along Kinnikinic Creek, which drains into the Salmon River at Clayton, about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) downstream from the mine. The mill produced a lead concentrate by selective flotation that contained 35 to 45 percent lead and 3,400 to 6,800 g/t silver. Mill tailings were placed as terraces along steep slopes within the narrow stream valley, extending to the edge of creek. Prior to the most recent mining activity, a historic smelter, on the north bank of the Salmon River at the town of Clayton, processed ores from a number of mines in the district and dumped slag directly into the river. The smelter operated intermittently from the 1880s to 1902. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) have been investigating environmental issues related to the abandoned mine site since the early 1990s. In October, 2001, EPA completed a Time-Critical Removal Action to stabilize mine tailings to prevent erosion into Kinnikinic Creek, to control infiltration of water into tailings and seepage of water from tailings, and to minimize wind erosion.

Captain America: Civil War, the Marvel comic-book flick, is in theaters now, so speed-shooter Jerry Miculek takes a page from the movie and dons a tight Captain America costume to find out if a replica titanium Captain America shield will fight off .45 ACP rounds fired from a 1911 pistol. With his quick trigger finger and incredible-slow-motion camera, Miculek hammers the shield with eight shots.
We would point out that if Captain America were a Law Shield member, and if he were arrested for shooting someone or injuring them with the shield, his legal protection would kick in for either the gun or other weapons charges, including hands and feet.


We all know the story behind the name for sandwich, but the Italians had their own Lord Sandwich; his name was Vittore Carpaccio, a medieval Venetian fresco painter. Like all artists, he would often forget about hunger in his creative exuberance, skipping meals to save precious time. Once he was so impatient that he could not wait for the meat to be cooked and instead ate the beef raw with some salad. Another legend says that his name became known thanks to his chef who used to prepare his favourite dish consisting of thin, almost transparent slices of raw beef, garnished with olive oil, salt, pepper, lemon juice and parmesan – and the rest is history! This slightly pretentious dish, named after Vittore Carpaccio is now more famous than the man himself. Although often relating to raw meat, carpaccio is much more. Primarily, this means very thinly sliced raw ingredients, one of them being tuna and other high quality oily and white fish. As the story goes, the culinary competition was initiated in mid 20th century by Arrigo Cipriani, owner of the iconic Harry's Bar in Venice after visiting the exhibition of the great Renaissance master. Spellbound by the art and especially the striking colours, he wanted to honour the painter by adding new ingredients to the dish and making it even more sophisticated and picturesque. Among the guests at this exhibition was Countess Amalia Nani Mocenigo who was on a special diet and, following the advice of a respected doctor, was not allowed any cooked meat. So Giuseppe decided to oblige and made a raw meat dish for her. Part of the local folklore is often competition and controversy over who makes the better anchovy carpaccio. It is said that the simpler it is, the better! Fresh anchovies, cleaned and washed, dried, stacked in a pot, topped with lemon juice, salt and pepper and that's it! Done and done! The lightness and colours of the painter's frescos with the dominating red are best embodied in the beef fillet carpaccio. Thin slices of half-frozen fillet, stacked on roquette, lightly covered with lemon juice, grated Grana Padano cheese, refreshed with green basil leaves and glittering with olive oil – this is what we see at every mention of carpaccio. To make another impressive dish, which is perfection on a plate, first you will need a regular plastic bottle and an octopus. The result of their joining and permeation is called 'octopus carpaccio'. Let us elaborate: cook the previously frozen octopus, cut it into larger pieces, squeeze them into the plastic bottle, then cut in the middle and place into the freezer. After removing the plastic, you have a delicious roll of tasty meat which you now must cut into slices as thin as possible. Add only a few drops of lemon, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and a few grains of fine salt and aromatic pepper.
At Navis, the design hotel in Opatija, Chef Nenad Posavac combines the five hotel stars with his rather star like status when it comes to Croatian cuisine. In his kitchen, located – like the entire hotel – on a steep cliff above the sea, Nenad Posavac creates new strategies to greet the guest through delicate senses, such as scents and flavours of the Mediterranean. Famous for the national TV culinary show 'Pears & Apples', Chef Posavac is bringing back to Opatija the forgotten flavours of seafood, known today only to the sophisticated gourmets. 'Bold compositions of seemingly incompatible ingredients are part of my higher goal, which is to always offer a story to the guest. A classic is always a classic, but the challenge lies in the alternative. However, even the imagination must have a base and Spanish cuisine was mine. Pakistan and Morocco opened the doors to exotic cuisine for me. 'It is like a fine spice, always at the end of my combinations which I send out only when I am convinced that they are no less than perfect' says Chef Posavac, adding that he named his new direction 'the raw program'. Snails, anemones, urchins and roe are all food from ancient times. Anemone, for instance, tastes very much like veal brain and very subtle sensations in its tentacles, calls to mind a non-existent peperoncino. It is this sea flavour that matters, the salt, even a little bitterness. 'I love thinking about tuna and all the possibilities it has to offer! It is the best raw meat in the world. One absolutely must not ruin this powerful, noble meat by torturing it with excessive spices and sauces. The idea behind carpaccio is to emphasize the taste of raw fish. When you have the skill and follow your philosophy, it is impossible not to draw the attention of those who cherish food as much as I do. Therefore, I give my best to the guest and I believe that in our world today, it is the details that make a restaurant special', Chef Posavac concludes.
She-devil, Frog, Werewolf, Monster – these are all local nicknames for one of the ugliest fish in the Adriatic – the Monkfish. Its mouth may look like the gates to hell, but its meat tastes like it came from heaven. This is why the monkfish carpaccio is always a very special treat. At the Gatto Nero restaurant in Novigrad the tradition of fishing and the richness of the sea is combined into outstanding seafood and fresh fish based gourmet experiences. Octopus and monkfish are prepared in the simplest of manners, yet they are so very unique and appealing. The restaurant's Chef Jasminka Bojanac is aware of the crucial element, which is diversity in preparing fish dishes. 'Boiled meat is a health delicacy par excellance. It is at the table usually followed by roasted meat filling us up the fastest; raw meat, although the rarest in our homes, is a new source of inspiration at our restaurant. It is the reason for our guests to return and bring new fans of our food ideas. Boiling, roasting, frying… are only methods of food preparation, while seafood carpaccio brings out the perfection of Adriatic ingredients in all their purity and health', says Chef Bojanac. At the Gatto Nero, beautifully located in the heart of Novigrad medieval old town – where you will find buildings full of character, palaces, walls and towers; carpaccio is the most original introduction to any lunch or dinner, or perhaps – and why not – a meal on its own. The meat carries all the essences of deep seas and the flavours leaking from shells of the crustaceans emit scents of the places they grew. To a wise chef, each complement is just a way to highlight those basic treasures even more, unspoilt by thermal processing.
For a while now, Istrian culinary scene has not produced a chef showing promise to become a top chef, with ideas that would be emulated by everyone eager to leave at least a small trail in the culinary history. A gem just like that is hidden in Poreč, in a small restaurant called Ćakula – its name meaning 'small talk', suggesting you will spend your idle hours here. This restaurant very ambitiously creates its cuisine, thanks to the coy Chef Dejan Premužić, who unknowingly pushes the boundaries of the conventional. He bases his ideas on the possibilities of combining the courses, each modern and unique – an independent meal ('piatto unico'). He adds colour to Mediterranean flavours, enriches them to the point of a firework; to the eye, to the pallet, to the health and soul! 'Baby-beef fillet carpaccio is an excellent base for a plate proving that it is the main impression that counts and when you place, for example, an artichoke on top – looking beautiful whether served hot or cold, with leaves or stripped to the bone – you have a delicacy with countless healing properties. I focus on vegetables more and more often. Raw, of course. Nutritionists have long ago recognized the value of vegetables in terms of vital fibres, vitamins and minerals they provide and I am all about the beauty hidden in their colours. These days I include zucchini a lot in my menu because they have such gentle edible skin, while the orange flowers, also edible, make a surprising and appetizing decoration. Beetroot has edible leaves too; apparently the old civilizations only ever ate the leaves, but I also find the strong red pigment of the root very inspiring. Beetroot carpaccio, much like the baby-beef fillet, provides an outstanding base on which to play with colours and flavours', Chef Premužić tells us. If we want to keep up with the time we live in, when everything is changing and evolving in all areas, we need to change our philosophy in cooking. These are the requirements of the modern time. We must reduce the cooking time, simplify the plate, even if it has a million details and only one ingredient is to be the star of the dish. Fashion and trends will always exist: they do not need to be blindly followed, we each have to develop our own style – and the secret is in the inspiration arising from one thing and one thing only – passion!

Review: The Welsh Way: Essays on Neoliberalism and Devolution
A new book exposes the gap between the Welsh government's radical rhetoric and reality, writes Leanne Wood
January 11, 2022 · 6 min read
Image: Jonny Gios via Unsplash
When the late Rhodri Morgan, as Labour's First Minister of Wales, said that there was 'clear red water' between his administration and the Blair government in Westminster, he was attempting to put distance between the two countries and governments, denoting that they were both separate and different: Wales' government was to the left of Labour's in London and more in favour of devolution. Another significant aspect of this distancing was from New Labour's spin. Morgan wanted Welsh Labour to be seen as more 'honest'.
Ironically, however, 'clear red water' has become yet another spun line – a phrase used as part of a wider strategy to give the impression of a red, radical, redistributive government in Wales, pursuing policies that are markedly different to the ones pursued by the true blue Tories in London.
The essays in The Welsh Way forensically blow these myths apart. They make the case that the government in Wales – led by Labour for more than 20 years since the Senedd's inception in 1999 – has pursued a neoliberal agenda designed to preserve the status quo. Its radical rhetoric, in the words of the late Ceri Evans, one of the socialists to whom this book is dedicated, has been 'gutted of all content'.
The Welsh Way is a collection of 23 'essays on neoliberalism and devolution' and an interview with Cardiff's community youth project Butetown Matters. The essays take on and turn around the accepted view that the Welsh government is challenging neoliberalism. The actions and words of Welsh ministers are scrutinised and the prevailing or accepted wisdom is shown to be based on classic spin.
Rhetoric versus reality
Spin works – and it's worked for Welsh Labour. 'Labour's persistent success can partly be attributed to the way it has woven the idea of Wales' political distinctiveness into its own mythology of Welshness,' say the book's authors. Yet 'radical rhetoric at the macro level – set out in documents, speeches and social media, and recirculated by an attenuated news media – is useless when it's not accompanied by the political will or the competence to turn their rhetoric into reality.'
In her chapter on feminism, Mabli Siriol Jones points to the 2018 declaration that the Welsh government is a feminist government. Yet Wales still has way too high levels of child and women's poverty, and '20 years of devolved policy on gender equality has prioritised recognition over redistribution'. Jones shows how the Welsh government's childcare policies have discriminated against the poorest women, a point echoed by Catrin Ashton in her chapter on working mothers.
Sam Parry looks at 'Welsh underdevelopment' and concludes that the Welsh government's economic policy 'shows astounding continuity with the Thatcher era'. In his chapter on nuclear colonialism, Robat Idris outlines how the Welsh political establishment has 'shown itself to be in thrall to multinational corporations, subject to the economic whim of Westminster'. And Calvin Jones states that the 'exploitation of the natural environment for little gain is a notable characteristic of Wales'.
Dan Evans shows how, in education, the Welsh government initially pursued a raft of progressive changes. They abolished league tables, learned from Finland and introduced the 'foundation phase' for early-years' education, established a children's commissioner, resisted free schools and academies, and introduced numerous initiatives aimed at the most deprived pupils.
But this good work was undone with a change of minister, who brought back league tables alongside literacy and numeracy tests in a new obsession to climb the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) rankings. To what end? PISA measures how pupils are doing as an indication of economic performance. Joe Healy's essay on higher education outlines the desperation for higher education institutions to reach the 'market', using the startling example of Swansea University being signed as the official shirt sponsor for Swansea City Football Club.
"But X isn't devolved"
Several of the authors highlight the yawning gap between rhetoric on further devolution and the lack of any action to make such an outcome likely, which allows politicians to complain about things that they in fact have the power to change. Huw Williams points to broadcasting as an example: 'After years of ignoring calls for the devolution of broadcasting, the complaints about the difficulty in engaging the Welsh public in Welsh terms during the pandemic are on par with the well-worn tactics of Labour politicians campaigning against NHS closures in Wales.' Indeed, the Welsh Labour government brought forward plans to close hospital A&E departments while Labour politicians stood on picket lines and addressed rallies attacking the health boards implementing government policy.
Georgia Burdett notes that, in Wales, 'spending per head on social protection was 13 per cent higher than the [UK] national average' and so 'it is hugely significant who controls it'. Yet the Welsh Labour government is content for the Tories in Westminster to continue to do so.
Chapters on policing and the prison service by Mike Harrison and Polly Manning hammer home the same point. Manning says: 'When faced with criticism of the high rates of incarceration, appalling prison conditions and failures in rehabilitation that have accumulated under their watch, the Welsh government has hit back with their familiar excuse "But X isn't devolved."' Both authors make the point that if devolved, spending could be reallocated to the causes of crime to prevent it, instead of spending more and more on the institutions that deal with the aftermath of crime – the police and prisons. Manning puts a strong case for the abolition of prisons.
This book, as Welsh actor and activist Michael Sheen says in the foreword, 'is filled with essays that are attempting to expand the parameters of discourse around what can and cannot be said about the current state of Wales and its direction of travel'. He says we need more forums for this kind of discourse. 'Thank God for those that do exist and let us continue to do all we can to protect and support them and endeavour to create more.' Sheen is advocating the building of a movement to dismantle Welsh neoliberalism, and this humanist says 'Amen' to that.
Leanne Wood served as leader of Plaid Cymru from 2012 to 2018, and was a Member of the Senedd from 2003 to 2021. The Welsh Way: Essays on Neoliberalism and Devolution is out now from Parthian Books

HCM City to improve solutions to climate change response

HCM City (VNS/VNA) – Ho Chi Minh City will assess the relationship between the factors that cause climate change and its socio-economic plans to develop long-term responses.
Nguyen Thi Thanh My, deputy director of the city's Department of Natural Resources and Environment, elaborated on the task at a recent meeting held to review implementation of climate change response plans over the last four years and set out orientations and tasks for the next decade.
All sectors and government agencies at all levels would need to join hands to find an effective approach to respond to the challenges of climate change and implement the city's green-growth strategy, she said.
According to Mai Tuan Anh, head of the department's meteorology, hydrology and climate change division, the city's responses to the challenges posed by climate change have enjoyed positive results in the last four years.
Research into and assessment of the impacts of climate change on natural, human and socio-economic factors have been implemented effectively thanks to a new methodology for building local climate change scenarios by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, he said.
"That helps the city … develop solutions to mitigate the impacts of climate change."
The Department of Industry and Trade has built models for energy monitoring and management that ensure no energy is wasted in the industrial sector that uses over six million kilowatt-hours a year.
The department subsidises the training of personnel at key industrial facilities in energy management.
It also organises seminars and propagates the adoption of energy consumption norms for the steel, plastic and chemical industries to help them clearly understand the laws on efficient use of energy and the benefits of energy saving.
To mitigate the impacts of flooding caused by heavy rains and high river tides, the city has invested in a number of tidal flood-control works like building sluices and dykes and dredging canals.
There are now only 22 flood-prone points in the city, down from 127 three years ago. The flooding also lasts shorter -- for only 15-40 minutes after the rains stop -- and is only 0.1-0.3 metres in depth.
The city has made plans to draw water from Dau Tieng and Tri An reservoirs to ensure there is enough for people facing water shortages caused by climate change.
The People's Committee has been implementing a plan on household solid waste classification at source since 2017, and people are gradually getting into the habit of separating their wastes before dumping them, making recycling and treatment easier.
The city has invested in infrastructure, replacing rudimentary vehicles with modern garbage trucks and using advanced technologies to treat waste.
It has also invested in sanitary landfills and solid waste treatment plants that convert waste into electricity and generate by-products that can be recycled for compost and help reuse plastic waste.
The Department of Transport is working to diversify fuels, develop infrastructure for clean and renewable energy and promote the use of vehicles that use clean and environment-friendly fuels such as CNG, LPG and electricity.
This has helped gradually replace traditional fuels such as petrol, save energy and reduce pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
The department also regularly checks vehicles for emissions, especially those emitting black smoke.
But Anh admitted there remained challenges in formulating a response to climate change.
For instance, data from studies and investigations on the effects of climate change was insufficient in terms of both quality and quantity for developing a comprehensive and effective response, he said.
"Propaganda and dissemination of information to improve public awareness have not been successful in mobilising the business community to participate in climate-change responses," he added.
An official from the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development said the city should seek the collection of used bottles and packages that contained plant protection substances for proper disposal.
They should not be burnt or discarded indiscriminately since they could release toxic gases, he said.
It was necessary to encourage farmers not to burn straw after harvesting rice to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and instead use it to grow mushrooms and as animal feed.
People living in places affected by climate change should select plants that adapt to salinity and have a short growth period, he added.
The Department of Construction said it would promote the use of unburnt and other environment-friendly building materials for construction.
It would regularly check standards, procedures and technical regulations for the treatment and consumption of ash, slag and gypsum discharged from thermal power plants, chemical and fertiliser plants and gypsum factories./.

On Saturday, Aug. 6, 2005, the families of James Glenn and John Henry dedicated new tombstones for these two Revolutionary War soldiers. The tombstones of Glenn and Henry had long ago vanished, and so the family ordered new stones. The stone of Margaret Henry, John's wife, was found several feet from the family plot in some weeds. It was moved back into the family plot prior to the ceremony.
The ceremony was held in St. Clair Cemetery on a hot and humid day. Approximately 30 descendents of Glenn and Henry appeared-some from as far away as Florida, Montana, New York and Georgia.
Boy Scout Troop #22 presented colors, Rev. Robert Maravalli of the Mt. Lebanon United Presbyterian Church delivered a short sermon, and wreaths were laid on the graves by the DAR Augustin Clayton Chapter, SAR Marquis de Lafayette Chapter, Pittsburgh Chapter PSSAR, the William Wallace Chapter DARSAR Ladies Auxiliary of the Marquis de Lafayette Chapter, Glenn descendants, Henry descendants, the Hilf Family, Historical Society of Mount Lebanon, Carnegie Historical Society, Eldredge Family and Williams Family. The ceremony closed with a 21-gun Salute by the McMurray VFW.

There are 3 types of ivy in our area that are nearly indistinguishable in the field. All 3 are considered invasive and the identification and treatment for each is the same.
Ivy is an evergreen climbing vine that attaches to the bark of trees, brickwork, and other surfaces by way of small root-like structures.
Leaves may be either angular with 3-7 points, or rounded with a single terminal point. Both leaf types may be found on the same plant.
Stems can be several inches across in good growing conditions. Leaves are dark green with pale veins, waxy to somewhat leathery, and arranged alternately along the stem.
Aggressive in its spread, ivy displaces native plants, dominating beneficial habitat while harboring unwanted rodents.
Ivy infests woodlands, forest edges, fields, hedgerows, coastal areas, salt marsh edges, and other upland areas, especially where some moisture is present.
It thrives in a wide range of soil pH but prefers slightly acidic soils.
It is often associated with land disturbance, either human-caused or natural, but can also invade otherwise intact, healthy woodlands.
Ivy spreads through vegetative regrowth. New plants can grow from cut or broken pieces of stem.
Ivy is also spread by seeds, which are often dispersed by birds. Ivy's dark-purple berries are produced wherever plants receive sufficient sunlight. Typically, these conditions occur on vines climbing tree trunks, but mature, fruiting plants can be found at ground level, as well.
Re-vegetate treatment areas with site-suitable native plants to improve ecosystem function and prevent new infestations.
All trees are susceptible to ivy infestation. Uninfested areas should be surveyed yearly to locate and pull seedlings before they spread. Winter surveys are most effective for this evergreen plant.
Monitor for new plants and re-treat as necessary. Ensure any existing plants do not produce and release seed. Remove, bag, and dispose of plants and seeds as trash, or burn pulled material (when fire regulations allow). Ivy fragments left on the ground may re-root and continue growing.
Prevent the additional spread of ivy by thoroughly cleaning tools, boots, and vehicles after working in or traveling through an infested area.
Do not buy ivy at nurseries or garden centers; consider planting comparable non-invasive plants. It is not legal to sell ivy in Oregon.
Birds may nest in ivy growing on trees or on the ground. Before you start any control method, be sure to survey for nesting birds.
Established infestations will require control of both tree ivy (growing up established trees) and ground ivy (growing along the ground).
To control tree ivy, cut the ivy stems at chest height all the way around the tree. Cut the ivy stems again at hip height, creating a gap on the trunk of the tree. Do not remove ivy stems from the canopy of the tree, as it can be dangerous and damaging to the tree and/or nesting birds. Canopy ivy may take a couple of months to die after the stems are cut.
To control ground ivy, pull the plants, being careful to remove all of the roots. This is best done in winter when soil is moist and desirable vegetation is less likely to be damaged. Large infestations may require the careful use of an appropriate herbicide. Bag and dispose of removed plants as trash. Composting is not advised, as woody fragments can generate new growth after removal. If you have too much to bag, pile it onto a tarp, or on top of dead tree branches, to prevent re-rooting and allow it to die completely (may take many months). Monitor and turn pile to ensure it doesn't re-root.
For large infestations, chop through ivy roots in a line and then peel back the mat into a large roll. English ivy will re-grow from root fragments, so follow-up pulling will be needed.
Monitor the site regularly and remove any new growth; vigilance is required to ensure long term control.
Improper disposal of this plant is a primary cause of recurrent infestations.
Home compost does not get hot enough to destroy plant fragments and seeds of invasive ivy. Bag seeds and place in trash.
Monitor yard debris for escaped weeds.
Ivy in treated areas should not be mowed until after the herbicide has taken effect and weeds are brown and dead.
Monitor treated areas for missed and newly germinated plants. To prevent re-introduction by birds, sites should be monitored yearly.
Broadleaf selective herbicides are preferred over non-selective herbicides when applying in a grassy area.
Glyphosate (e.g. Roundup), triclopyr [amine/salt; choline] (e.g. Garlon 3A, Vastlan), or a mix of glyphosate + triclopyr [amine/salt; choline] can be applied in late summer or during a sunny period in winter, ideally early- to mid-January, when temperatures are above 50 degrees, to reduce impacts to native species. Be sure to add the triclopyr to water before the glyphosate, to avoid incompatibility (which results in the clumping that plugs spray nozzles and can lead to ineffective treatments).
An application of glyphosate + triclopyr can also be effective when applied to damaged foliar directly after string trimming.
Ivy can take several months to die after an application.
For larger infestations, the site should be replanted with the appropriate native vegetation to stabilize the soil surface.
Recent trials in Portland found a 4-2-2 application method to be 95+% effective. This mix is 4% glyphosate, 2% triclopyr [amine/salt] (e.g. Garlon 3A), and 2% surfactant (e.g. Competitor). Be sure to mix triclopyr into solution with water prior to adding glyphosate or efficacy will be reduced. If using choline formulation of triclopyr (e.g Vastlan), reduce triclopyr percentage to 1.5% rate.

Photo from last summer, the first time I tried freelensing. I had a few shots that were better exposed but I really like the subtle distortion around the border of this picture. I'm not the biggest fan of post-production, so I especially love camera tricks like this that create effects people sometimes use photoshop for.

Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross to score upcoming Pixar film, Soul
First published: 26 August 2019
Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross of acclaimed industrial rock group Nine Inch Nails will be adding yet another film score to their resumé.
After scoring the soundtracks for films like Gone Girl, The Social Network, Mid90s and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, the duo will now be lending their expertise to an upcoming Pixar film, Soul.
The film's cast includes the likes of Questlove, Tina Fey, and Jamie Foxx. The film imagines a world in which every living person comes with a pre-installed soul in a new cosmic realm. Jamie Foxx's character is a music teacher who dreams of playing a show at a legendary jazz club in New York.
The film is set to be released in cinemas on 19 June, 2020.
While awaiting the film, and its soundtrack to be released, check out Nine Inch Nails' 'We're In This Together' below.


Java continues to be Public Enemy No. 1 when it comes to computer and network security. Oracle released a huge update for the virtually ubiquitous software, but attackers aren't done exploiting Java as the weakest link in the security chain, and Oracle isn't securing it fast enough.
The update is impressive in scope and scale, and it's important for IT admins and users to apply it as soon as possible. Amol Sarwate, director of Qualys Vulnerability Labs, notes in a blog post, "All vulnerabilities except three can be exploited remotely by an attacker, and in most cases, the attacker can take complete control of the system."
Lamar Bailey, director of security research and development for Tripwire, has dubbed 2013 "the year of the Java vulnerability." Bailey points out that Java is widely used across multiple platforms, and that alone makes it a juicy target for attackers. "Java is squarely in the crosshairs of many hackers and security researchers and that's not going to change in the short term."
Sarwate also highlights the dramatic spike in Java vulnerabilities with a chart comparing the rate of Java vulnerabilities over the last three years. Sarwate says, "This year we had 137 vulnerabilities as compared to just 28 and 38 during the same period for the last two years."
The bullseye on Java's back, and Oracle's oft-lethargic reaction time in patching known vulnerabilities, has led many companies and vendors to disable Java, or to even seek out alternatives to replace it. Apple has turned off Java by default in Safari, and Microsoft released a Fix-It tool that lets users disable Java in Internet Explorer.
Bailey points out, "Even though Oracle is doing a decent job of stepping up their delivery of bug fixes they still have a long way to go," adding, "I hope Oracle has a 'full court press' on Java security so they can squash the remaining vulnerabilities relatively quickly."
For starters, Oracle should abandon the quarterly update model. There are simply too many Java vulnerabilities, discovered too frequently to expect businesses or users to sit idly--exposed to potential attacks against known flaws--for months before a patch is available. Oracle should follow Microsoft's example and get on the monthly Patch Tuesday bandwagon, or risk seeing the Java exodus accelerate.

For a woman to want a baby — how blessed. For a woman to want children is normal and blessed. He was ecstatic — so much so that I could hardly ask him a question.
Original version[ edit ] Comedian Pat Paulsen makes a guest appearance in Generally the bachelorette would ask questions written in advance on cards to each of the three hidden bachelors. The same question could be asked to multiple bachelors. This continued until time ran out. The bachelorette would make her choice based solely on the answers to her questions. Occasionally, the contestant was a bachelor who would ask questions to three bachelorettes.
Certain kinds of questions were "off-limits", such as name, age, occupation, and income. When the original format returned to the syndicated revival in , these rules were readopted but there was more of a variety between bachelors and bachelorettes. When chosen, a new statement replaced the old statement and the potential date explained the reason why that fact pertained to them.
In several weeks of episodes that aired at various times throughout the season, another format was used. This format saw the players choose a potential date based on how good they looked and another based on personality. The statement round was used to determine the "personality" portion. Episode status[ edit ] The ABC daytime episodes are believed to have been erased after broadcast, as was the standard practice with network daytime programs prior to the late s.

Casey Anthony
Share this article Share Most of the others appear to be taken on a cell phone or webcam and one looks as if she is standing in a crowded bar or restaurant. The pictures will come as a shock to many who followed the trial closely, and there is suspected to be public outrage as haters of the mother believe she is guilty of murdering Caylee and should be behind bars. With her hair a different colour and different style, it appears the cleared mom has changed her look several time since her release Out in public: Another shows Casey apparently out in a bar or restaurant without any form of disguise Poser: The year-old shows off her new hat A video diary belonging to Casey surfaced yesterday showing the cleared mother with short blonde hair and black, thick-rimmed glasses.
We were friends and then we decided to kind of take it up a notch. Uhm, it was sighs , I want to say right before school let out, or for summer, so maybe, well maybe, March, April. So March, April of last year? How long were you guys dating? Not very long because we had decided to be friends and the whole long distance relationship wasn't working for us. And a condolence message in the name of Caylee Marie Anthony mysterously appeared on his Internet Myspace page.
But investigators don't believe he sired Caylee and Ortiz's parents hired a lawyers to quash the rumors. Jesus Ortiz, 21, died in a car crash in Orlando in May Ortiz was a business major at the University of Central Florida. The attorney representing Ortiz's parents said the family is close-knit and they claim they've never heard of or met Casey Anthony.
But they're not completely dismissing the possibility that Ortiz could be the father. In fact, the family has never met her and does not know her," attorney Bryan Crews said. They would like to get to know the child if she is indeed still alive.
I hear you and I hear your rage. But calm down a bit. The fact that Casey walks out of jail as a free woman in just days add salt to that wound. Though we may never feel OK about this verdict, your rage is going to go away, your live are going to go on.
The first view of her fantastic boobs spilling out of her dress is a beautiful sight to behold. A little bend over twerk gets her ass spilling out of the dress as well. The Bailey Whore-a-scope – Bailey shows off her fantastic figure and assets both top and bottom in this extensive all nude posing clip. Most notable is her remarkable posture with an incredible arch of her back and her ability to get her ass thrust out into the open.
In the mid section Bailey straddles between the couch and coffee table offering some excellent underneath views. Her last pose is brilliant lying on her front with her legs wide open while the butt continually thrust up and slowly twerks in the air. Dinkin' Baileys – Bailey uses a small vibrator on her pussy with a little bit of occasional insertion but mostly just rubbing it on the outside. Outshining the actual action is her incredible posture and the crazy positions she is able to maintain.
Lying on her side she thrusts her ass so far out you can literally gaze upon her entire pussy and ass and see her face from behind at the same time. She ends up on her front with her legs wide open and her ass slowly twerking against the toy. In spite of not getting the slightest bit juicy the scene is still highly entertaining thanks to her fabulous poses making her private places extremely well exposed. Spill Bailey – Now outdoors Bailey squats on an old wooden chair and has a quick pee.

Six provincial court officials and nine security personnel on Tuesday were briefly held hostage in their own court compound by a group of angry villagers demanding the release from jail of four men.
Two judges, one deputy prosecutor and three clerks left the compound around 5:30 pm Tuesday, following two hours trapped inside the compound.
About 60 villagers had amassed outside the gate of the Pursat provincial court compound late Tuesday, refusing to unlock the compound's gate until they spoke with local authorities.

However, when Tuesday's proceedings were postponed, the protesting villagers demanded the release of the four men. Police refused, driving away and injuring two protesters in the process, further angering the group.
"I bought a lock from the market for 10,000 riel, and then I locked the gate because I'm angry with the court for not releasing my husband [Chhor Touch], who has been in jail since last year," said Phon Nop, 44.
After evening negotiations between villagers and authorities, the gate was unlocked.
The next hearing on the four men with be Feb. 20. No arrests were made in the episode.

Giant's new Trance 29. Photo: Giant.
Giant has a new option out for their trail bike, the Trance, and it includes bigger wheels.
Giant will keep 27.5-inch wheels on some Trance models, but for those who crave more rollover capability, then they'll also have the option to buy the Trance in a 29er package.
The Giant Trance 29 is quite the departure from the previous 27.5 model. The Trance 29 comes with a 115mm travel frame and either a 130mm Fox or DVO fork.
A 66.5-degree head angle, 74.5-degree seat angle, and 435mm chainstays make up the angles of the bike.
2019 numbers for the 650B version aren't up yet, but the 2018 model was based off 150mm and 140mm of front and rear travel, respectively, and a 73.5-degree seat angle and a 67-degree head angle.
The Trance 29 will come in an alloy model with a Fox 34 fork, Giant Contact dropper post, SRAM NX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain and SRAM Guide T brakes. MSRP for the Trance 29 2 is $3,040.
At the top end, buyers can get the Trance Advanced Pro build with a carbon front and alloy rear triangle, with a DVO Sapphire fork, DVO Topaz rear shock, SRAM X01 Eagle drivetrain and Guide RSC brakes. MSRP for the Trance Advanced Pro 29 0 is $8,300.
Alloy models in certain sizes are available on the Giant website to buy now, with carbon models expected to be available soon.
Even if I decided to switch to 29 in wheels, I wouldn't want to give up any suspension travel.

Algerian protesters hold last Friday rally before election
Tens of thousands of Algerians took to the streets on Friday, making a show of strength of their last weekly protest before a presidential election next week that they have rejected as meaningless, APA reports quoting Reuters.
The protesters have been demonstrating twice a week since February to demand that the shadowy ruling elite that has controlled Algeria since independence in 1962 quits power.
On Friday, they chanted "We will not vote" and held aloft banners reading "No need to prepare the polling stations" and "The people are fed up" as they paraded through central Algiers.
The army, the major force within the Algerian state, sees the Dec. 12 election of a new president as the only way to restore normality after nine months of demonstrations which in April ousted the veteran leader Abdelaziz Bouteflika.
Protesters say any election is pointless if the ruling hierarchy, including the army, continues to wield power, and want it put off until more top officials step aside and the military quits politics.
"We will stick to our position. We don't care about next Thursday. We need change," said post office employee Aissa Baha'i, 32.
Later on Friday the former senior officials running for president will take part in a televised debate, Algeria's first, but the protesters dismissed it as political theater.

The Car That Won the 100th Indy 500 Is for Sale—But There's a Catch
The Dallara DW12 driven by Alexander Rossi will be auctioned off in August. Its engine will not be included—for a short while, anyway.
By Brian Silvestro
Mecum
Mecum Auctions recently unveiled the lineup for its Monterey 2018 event, and among all the neat vintage cars and exotics is none other than Dallara DW12 Chassis 037—the Napa Auto Parts-branded IndyCar Alexander Rossi drove to victory in the 100th running of the Indy 500. It's one of the sport's most important cars ever, and now, you have a chance to own it. But there's a catch: the engine won't be included. Until 2020, that is.
Welcome to You Must Buy, our daily look at the cars you really should be buying instead of that boring commuter sedan.
According Mecum's press release, whoever wins Rossi's car in August will receive the complete vehicle minus the race-winning twin-turbo Honda engine. Because of an agreement with Honda Performance Development, the power unit will be returned to the car no later than 2020. That means whoever buys this car will have everything they need to drive the car, minus the thing that actually makes it move.
In complete race trim, chassis 037 is capable of achieving an average speed of over 230 mph around Indianapolis Motor Speedway. This is accomplished thanks to the car's carbon fiber and kevlar construction, 1590-pound curb weight, and six-speed XTRAC transmission. It also comes equipped with carbon Brembo brakes, and Firestone Firehawk tires with specially branded 100th Indianapolis 500 sidewall text.
According to Mecum, the car, which was originally constructed in 2012, was also driven by IndyCar racers Alex Tagliani, Jack Hawksworth, and Gabby Chaves before eventually ending up in Rossi's hands. It will go up for auction sometime between August 23rd and 25th as a part of Monterey's Car Week celebration. No estimate price is listed on Mecum's site, but considering this is one of the most significant race cars of the decade, don't expect it to go for cheap.

We regularly visit community groups and organisations to listen to people about their experiences of local services and give them the opportunity to shape future services. Through our outreach we have had meaningful conversations with local communities who do not always feel their voice is heard or face specific barriers to being involved in our work.
When considering the priority groups for our community outreach we use insight from equality and health inequality impact assessments and data from our borough's Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) particularly around health inequalities.
The programme allows organisations or community groups to apply for small grants to run an event or activity of their choice. We attend these sessions to speak to people we do not usually hear from about their experiences of local services and to allow them to help shape future service provision.
During 2016/17 we went to 18 events and spoke to more than 380 people. You can read more about what they said and the evaluation report.
If you run an organisation or community group who would be interested in taking part in this programme, you can find out more on the Healthwatch Richmond website.
During 2017-2018 we attended 17 events and spoke to over 300 people. We wanted to find out more about how seldom heard groups experience our services, as well as finding out more about what they think are the priorities for our local health and care plan and what people see as good quality primary care.
Through closer working with Kingston CCG we can use the insight from its community outreach to also inform our work.

They shared insights about changes in the locations of the services they use as well as general information about their GP practices and the social value of the services provided by this community organisation.
Twickenham twins are a group of mothers with twins who meet up regularly. We went along to their pamper evening and spoke to them in small groups about the issues they had with healthcare – specifically around maternity and post-natal care for twin births.
The children in care council is a small group of children and young people who have experienced living in the care system. We ran a focus group to ask them about mental health and self-harm amongst young people to inform our south west London programme about reducing self-harm in young people.
People told us about their experience getting support for children with mild to moderate learning disabilities as they move from children to adult's services.
Over 70 carers from across the borough attended this wellbeing event and took part in a range of activities. These included a discussion group with the CCG about carer friendly GP practices. We also took the opportunity to share information about local GP extended access, PPGs, GP online and changes to the walk-in centre at Teddington Memorial Hospital.
Richmond Young Carers ran a summer holiday activity project and we went along to to discuss with young carers how important these schemes were for them, as well as other ways they need support before they went off to Liquid Leisure in Slough.

The full of life fair is for over 55s living in the borough and has over 1000 visitors. We spoke with several hundred of them about our winter campaign and listened to their views on our priorities for ageing well in Richmond as part of our local health and care plan development.
We met with 8 women at Barnes Children's Centre who are new to living in the UK. They told us about their experiences of navigating a very different health system to the ones in their homes.
