Mayor Donya Tesoro's Image When Being Pressured by Stress
Donya Tesoro (born April 5, 1991) is a politician from San Manuel, Tarlac, Philippines. The lady became a mayor at a young age of only 28. Other than a mayor she is also very popular on social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook where thousands of people follow her.
This past dew months Donya is taking the necessary steps on the pandemic disease (COVID-19). Donya Tesoro has ordered the municipal corporation to deploy sanitation teams in different parts of San Manuel. She also shared images regarding this on Facebook.
In her personal life, she is a very lively person and tries to live her life as per her choice. If you look at her Instagram account then you will see her personal life but if you want to see her daily life and when it comes to her life as a mayor then head towards her Facebook page.
Some people want to know who her husband is or whether she is married or not but let me tell you that Donya Tesoro is not married. She even shared a video on Facebook how stressed she was and said "Wala na ngang Lovelife stress pa". So there is hope for someone who wanted to be part of Mayor Donya's life, so don't lose hope.

Tarl Warwick
Tarl Warwick (born: January 20, 1988 (1988-01-20) [age 31]), known by his screen name of Styxhexenhammer666, is an Occultist, author, editor and political commenter on Youtube. His videos cover various topics of interest such as religion, politics, world events, occultism and posts other miscellaneous material.
A typical video has him sitting in his house with his microphone in view expressing his opinions on politics and current events. Once opening his videos with "Alright Youtube" he has since switched to "Alright Everyone" (Briefly "Alright World") due to his choice to begin double uploading all new content to Vid.me.[1] Every video he ends by saying "that's about all, peace out".
Many of his videos, especially between 2011 and 2014 have been about religion. His religious background was originally marginal Christianity, but over time, he became first a general atheist, then a Satanist, and now a pagan and occultist. He has stated that his variant of Satanism was essentially atheistic and that he belonged to no specific order or group therein.[2]
He had previously uploaded trip reports from when he used recreational drugs. He stopped using drugs in 2010 after a severe overdose from a type of synthetic marijuana known as "Spice" that sent him to a psychiatric ward. He said it took many months before he felt normal again and advised that no one should ever use the substance.[3]
During 2016, his videos became increasingly focused on the 2016 United States presidential election. Initially, he endorsed Gary Johnson of the Libertarian Party, until he felt he could no longer support Johnson due to differences in views on Islamic immigration and switched his support to Donald Trump. Even before he withdrew his endorsement of Gary Johnson, he predicted that Donald Trump would win the presidency and also voted for Trump in the Vermont primaries, making him one of very few political commentators to successfully predict the outcome of the general election.
His videos can be controversial and he is not afraid to express opinions considered to be unpopular. Beginning with Charles Manson, he has expressed his belief that Manson was innocent and should be released from prison. He has also expressed skepticism of certain aspects of the Holocaust, although he has since backtracked on some of his statements (particularly on the use of Zyklon B). During the years when most of his uploads were about religion, he expressed his fair share of anti-religious sentiment, especially towards Christianity, Judaism and Islam. He also considered himself to be the most anti-religious person in Vermont. He has admitted to receiving death threats from Christians due his anti-Christian videos, although he said he never had a problem with liberal Christians, it was the fundamentalist Christians had a problem with. Some examples of his most anti-religious videos include: Proving the Bible is a Fraud, The Truth about Organized Religion, New Age Morality, and New Religious Movements and Fred Phelps, Last True Christian, Dies at 84.
Tarl Warwick's political views are complex and have been known to change over time. Views expressed include anti-religion, populism, classical liberalism, drug legalization, pro-abortion, right to bear arms, cultural nationalism, anti-globalization and apocalypticism. Examples of how his political views have changed over time include how he used to consider himself a Liberal around 2009, but later became a Libertarian. Another example was in 2016 when he abandoned his support for the Libertarian Party in favor of Donald Trump, after saying a year earlier that he would never vote for Trump. While he has become increasingly critical of the left, Warwick rejects being labeled as a conservative and has also expressed criticism of the Republicans. Warwick stated he voted for Barack Obama in 2008 and wrote in Ron Paul in 2012.
His views over the years have remained consistently in favor of limited government and distrust of power in general. Since 2016, many of his videos have been defensive of Donald Trump, although since his inauguration he has expressed criticism of Trump on certain issues such as his controversial Tomahawk missile strike on Syria and his signing off on a massive arms deal with Saudi Arabia. He has referred to himself definitively as a "limited government minarchist."[4] He has elaborated on this general idea, saying that tyranny and abuse currently come from the left, mainly, and if they were coming from the right, many would mistake him for a liberal. He opposes corporate power as much as government power. [5]
Although Warwick has over the years been strongly opposed to America's military interventions worldwide (something that contributed to him turning against Obama), he has posted videos expressing support for a military intervention against North Korea to prevent them from having the capacity of unequivocally threatening the United States and its allies in the region. He has defended Trump for his handling of the crisis and blames the current standoff on Clinton, Bush and Obama for their inability to contain North Korea over the years. However, he argues that that United States should avoid sending ground troops into North Korea and that its role in a future conflict should be confined to naval and aerial strikes while South Korea should send in its ground forces.
He opposes the European Union and has made videos in support of Eurosceptic right-wing populist parties, such as the Freedom Party of Austria.[6] He has also supported euroskeptic movements on the generally leftist side, such as Front Nationale.[7][8] He also urged all his British viewers to vote to leave the EU in the 2016 Brexit referendum.[9] He has expressed support for EU states in Eastern Europe such as Poland and Hungary which are at odds with Brussels over various disputes including the refugee crisis.[10] During the wave of elections across Europe in 2017, he correctly predicted the loss of Le Pen in France, as well as the mild gains of Geert Wilders in the Netherlands. He also predicts the general collapse of European centrist movements and the eventual demise of the EU.
Warwick is critical of open-door immigration policies such as those in place in Europe because he believes the people do not assimilate to into a common culture and allows entry to Islamic extremists.[11] He believes multiculturalism has failed but multiethnicism can work if assimilation is encouraged.[12] In a video uploaded in 2011, he said Europe needs to protect its racial groups but stated that America was meant to be a melting pot and should continue allowing immigrants from all parts of the world.[13] However, in a 2017 video titled "Open Borders and Limitless Immigration Are Stupid", he believes America no longer has enough open space to admit unlimited numbers of immigrants and believes limiting immigration is important for liberty because "people from cultures that don't value freedom can poor in at their leisure".[14] He fully supports Donald Trump's policies to build a wall on the Mexican border and to block immigration from a select number of Islamic countries. However, he opposes the concept of mass deportation and has stated he would not oppose limited amnesty for illegals.
Warwick has attracted a following from the alt-right, a loosely formed populist movement centered around white nationalism. He has said in 2016 that he is "not really on the alt-right", but appeared sympathetic to the movement. In September 2016, he appeared as a guest on Red Ice TV, a YouTube channel which describes itself as "predominately focusing on issues concerning European survival" where he said he was "on the fringes of the alt-right, I guess." However, he has since rejected this label and has stated that what "alt lite" meant during the election has shifted and now mostly refers to racial nationalists that do not openly proclaim racial nationalism.[15]
A hacker known as 'Lizard Squad' hacked YouTube on November 23, 2017, terminating Styxhexenhammer666 for multiple hours. People thought this would be the end of YouTube until it was found that a hacker (Lizard Squad) hacked YouTube terminated multiple big channels, such as, iDubbbzTV , DramaAlert , Papa Jake, Team Coco / Conan O'Brien , MrRepzion , and including Styxhexen.
He has made a video addressing the situation.

Reading: Explorations in the Structure of Task Spaces
Explorations in the Structure of Task Spaces
Thomas Kleinsorge
Institut für Arbeitsphysiologie an der Universität Dortmund, Ardeystraße 67, D-44139 Dortmund, DE
Starting with outlining some analogies between task-set reconfiguration on the one hand and motor programming on the other hand, in this paper a perspective on task shifting is delineated that highlights the importance of taking into account the representational structures individual task sets are embedded in. It is shown that the relative difficulty of identical transitions between individual tasks depends on the relations between all tasks that possibly have to be performed in a certain situation. Thus, when focusing on transitions between subsequent trials only, discrepant findings are to be expected that can only be resolved by taking into account the context in which these transitions take place.

New Delhi: More and more kids are hooked on to screens, parents are worried how to create homework-play balance and tech giants in Silicon Valley are in a huddle, deliberating over how to help children cut screen addiction.
Two key Apple shareholders this month requested the Cupertino-based iPhone maker to take urgent steps to safeguard young users from the ill-effects of iPhone addiction.
In a letter, Jana Partners and the California State Teachers' Retirement System told Apple to make its products safer for the younger users. "We have reviewed the evidence and we believe there is a clear need for Apple to offer parents more choices and tools to help them ensure that young consumers are using your products in an optimal manner," the letter read.
Facebook, which has over two billion users, is making drastic changes to its News Feed that will allow users to see more updates from family and friends than posts from businesses, brands and media.
According to its CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook has got a feedback from the community that public content — posts from businesses, brands and media — is crowding out the personal moments that lead us to connect more with each other.
Zuckerberg admits that the new changes might not pay off at first, but believes it is important that users have more meaningful social interactions.
The decision may result in a massive $23 billion revenue loss for Facebook as advertisers are not happy about being shooed away from their biggest online market on Earth.
This is not the first time such fears have come out in the open from the global tech industry.
Microsoft founder-turned-philanthropist Bill Gates, in an interview to the Mirror last year, said he has set strict rules for how his three kids grew up "in a home that forbade cell phones until age 14, banned cell-phone use at the dinner table, and set limits on how close to bedtime kids could use their phones".
"You're always looking at how it can be used in a great way — homework and staying in touch with friends — and also where it has gotten to excess," Gates told the Mirror.
Late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs never let his kids use iPads at home. "We limit how much technology our kids use at home," Jobs had told The New York Times.
According to Sean Parker, one of Facebook founders, the digital world's addictive qualities "exploit a vulnerability in human psychology… God only knows what it's doing to our children's brains".
To buttress their point, Apple shareholders, in their letter, cited latest research that linked depression to smartphone use among students.
However, a December study from the University of Michigan suggests that how children use the devices — not how much time they spend on them — is the strongest predictor of emotional or social problems connected with screen addiction.
"Typically, researchers and clinicians quantify or consider the amount of screen time as of paramount importance in determining what is normal or not normal or healthy or unhealthy," said lead author Sarah Domoff.
"Our study has demonstrated that there is more to it than number of hours. What matters most is whether screen use causes problems in other areas of life or has become an all-consuming activity," she added.
It's now a familiar sight in the majority of families including in India — young children bent over a screen for hours, texting or gaming, lost in a digital world — with parents worrying how much screen time is too much.
The awakening in the tech world is just another discussion point — this time among those who built it in the first place.
However, with billions of devices now being used in homes across the world, it is practically impossible to turn the clock back and tell kids to stop using gadgets.
The onus lies on parents who can learn from Gates and Jobs how to minimise screen time cautiously and judiciously — without making our kids angrier and more stubborn.
Meanwhile, Apple CEO Tim Cook wants all primary school children to be taught coding alongside the alphabet. For him, coding is "just another language, and just like any other language, it should be taught in schools".
It is possibly time to buy a device with high-performance computing capabilities for your kids at home.
New Delhi, Jan 20 (IANS) More and more kids are hooked on to screens, parents are worried how to create homework-play balance and tech giants in Silicon Valley are in a huddle, deliberating over how to help children cut screen addiction.

Oh well, I'll attend BlizzCon one of these days. This summer isn't a great time for me to go anyways because of various real life circumstances.
We're still running a bit short for heroic Ulduar. In the mean time though, we're progressing through Ulduar 10. The tier-8 leggings are more than kind of ugly. Keiya doesn't like dresses! I do though, really like the way the chest piece looks. But then again,I've always been a sucker for plate midriff.
Over the past month or two, I swear that at least half of my favorite WoW blogs have went inactive; What is with that? Speaking of blogs, there is some Grade A internet drama occurring over here regarding this person. What a strange and elaborate thing to do for no meaningful gain.
Even though I could care less about who a person chooses to portray for their interwebs avatar, hiding behind the identity of a hot gamer girl for the sake of gaining a larger reader base is uber lame. Stealing another person's identity and pictures is kind of wrong and creepy :/.
So I am kind of curious: I wonder how many people think I am male? Most people I encounter in WoW do until they hear me flap my mouth over vent (for a while I semi-refused to speak. I think that made guild members suspicious LOL). The way I write and act, at least online and amongst close friends isn't particularly feminine. I find that mildly amusing lol.
I have been greatly looking forward to the release of The Sims 3, which is this coming Tuesday. The Sims (TS2 that is) I guess, is kind of like a gaming mistress. I have on-and-off love affairs with it when my other gaming staples aren't doing it for me. It's actually one of the only games that I have (kind of) consistently played on a long term basis. I am pretty fickle about my games and tend to move onto the next fix quickly.

Q: Factoring $x^{n} - y^{m}$ as a Product involving Roots of Unity The following relation is well-known: For odd $n$,
\begin{align}
x^{n} - y^{n} = \prod_{k = 0}^{n-1} ( \zeta_n^{k} x - \zeta_{n}^{-k} y) \qquad \zeta_n =e^{2\pi i/n}.
\end{align}
Is there a similar relation for even $n$? Is there a similar relation involving roots-of-unity to factor the polynomial $x^{n} - y^{m}$ for arbitrary positive integers $n, m \geqslant 1$? Of course, not all of these polynomials are reducible, but I expect this to be visible in the putative product, if one exists.

A: For all $n$ we have
$$x^n - y^n = \prod_{k=0}^{n-1} (x - \zeta_n^k y).$$
It follows that if $d = \gcd(n, m)$ then
$$x^n - y^m = \prod_{k=0}^{d-1} (x^{n/d} - \zeta_n^k y^{m/d}).$$
If $\gcd(n, m) = 1$ then $x^n - y^m$ is irreducible (so the above is a factorization into irreducible factors).
Proof. If $f(x, y)$ is an irreducible factor then so is $f(\zeta_n^i x, \zeta_m^j y)$ for all $i, j$. The product of all distinct (up to scalar multiple) polynomials of this form is invariant under $x \mapsto \zeta_n x$ and $y \mapsto \zeta_m y$, hence is a polynomial in $x^n$ and $y^m$. Since $x^n - y^m$ is a linear polynomial in $x^n$ and $y^m$, this product must be $x^n - y^m$, so $x^n - y^m$ factors as a product of polynomials all of which have the same degree in $x$ and the same degree in $y$. But since $\gcd(n, m) = 1$, this is possible if and only if $f$ has degree $n$ in $x$ and degree $m$ in $y$. $\Box$

Glenn Hughes: Justified Man – The Studio Albums 1995-2003
By Harry 14 januari 2020 Releases
Format: 6CD Box
Label: Purple Records / Cherry Red Records
Releasedatum: 31 januari 2020
Glenn Hughes, "The Voice Of Rock", first came to prominence in Trapeze, a band featuring future Whitesnake guitarist Mel Galley, and future Judas Priest drummer, Dave Holland. Following their third album, "You Are The Music, We're Just The Band", Glenn joined Deep Purple in 1973 for their "Burn", "Stormbringer" and "Come Taste The Band" albums. Deep Purple split in 1976, with its members following various solo and side-projects. The first fruits of Glenn's post Purple career appeared with "Play Me Out" (also available on Purple Records), issued in July 1977. Glenn would go on to collaborate with Pat Thrall in Hughes-Thrall, Joe Lynn Turner in the Hughes-Turner Project, with Tony Iommi in Black Sabbath, plus pursue a prolific solo career through the 1990s and beyond.
• CD1: Glenn's fourth solo album, "Feel", was originally released in 1995, and finds the singer veering towards more pop, soul and funk sounds rather than the hard rock that he's often better known for. Former Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver drummer Matt Sorum guests, and the album also sees a welcome collaboration with his Hughes-Thrall partner, Pat Thrall.
• CD2: Glenn's fifth solo album, "Addiction" was originally released in 1996, and unlike the more soulful pop of his previous record "Feel", "Addiction" sees the singer returning to a much harder rocking sound. Guitarist Marc Bonilla performs, co-produces and co-wrote nine of the ten original songs.
• CD3: Glenn's 1999 solo album, "The Way It Is" was produced by Glenn Hughes & Michael Scott, as well as featuring original material written with guitarist JJ Marsh. The album also includes two versions of the Jimi Hendrix classic, 'Freedom'.
• CD4: Glenn's 2000 solo album, "Return Of The Crystal Karma", was produced by Glenn Hughes & Michael Scott, featuring original material written with guitarist JJ Marsh and keyboard player Hans Zermüehlen, it also includes the track 'Gone', co-written with Black Sabbath's Tony Iommi. The album even features a guest cameo from The Cure's Lol Tolhurst.
• CD5: Released in 2001, "Building The Machine" was the follow-up to 2000's "Return of Crystal Karma", and as well as featuring original material written with long-time collaborator and guitarist JJ Marsh, the album also includes a version of the Deep Purple classic, 'Highball Shooter', a song which had originally appeared on 1974's "Stormbringer". Special guests include guitarist Pat Travers, who duets with Hughes on the Rare Earth cover 'I Just Want To Celebrate', plus Toto's Bobby Kimball and The Cure's Lol Tolhurst appearing on backing vocals.
• CD6: With a title that pays homage to one of Glenn's heroes, Stevie Wonder's "Songs in the Key of Life", the album mixes his beloved funk with a deliberate 70s style hard rock. As well as featuring long-time collaborator JJ Marsh on guitar, the album includes guest spots from bassist Billy Sheehan and Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith, as well as co-producer Jeff Kollman. 'Higher Places (Song for Bonzo)' is a song dedicated to Glenn's dear friend, Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham.

Robert (Bob) Wilkinson (University of Ulster, University of Edinburgh) has been working at Maastricht University, the Netherlands, since 1984. An applied linguist he was a member of the team under Prof. Geert Hofstede that started the first complete English-medium degree programme in the mid-1980s. Successful experience with this degree in International Management led to many other degree programmes, especially during the mid-1990s and after the change to the bachelors-masters degree structure in 2002. Bob Wilkinson was involved with the introduction of many of these programmes, particularly regarding language competences of staff and students as well as instructional design to facilitate the learning of both content and language.
Bob Wilkinson has always been a practitioner working in many fields, notably economics and business, health, medicine and life sciences as well as, more recently, the sciences. He has worked for many years in the commercial world as well, especially with manufacturing firms and banks.
He has published widely on the experience of Maastricht University as it has changed from a Dutch-medium institution to one that is bilingual where most programmes are now English-medium. He has also advised other universities that are in the process of offering English-medium instruction, for example Universidad de Extremadura (Spain), University of Freiburg (Germany), and the National University of Malaysia. He worked in France, Czechoslovakia, and Scotland, before moving to the Netherlands, and has run training courses for university teachers and/or administrators in Spain, Greece, Germany, Hungary, Russia, Malaysia and Sweden.
Bob Wilkinson was the initiator of a conference series on Integrating Content and Language in Higher Education, and has been conference chair for the three conferences held in Maastricht (2003, 2006, and 2013). A series of publications followed from these conferences, including the seminal one in 2004.

What is blogging? Well, blogging is sharing information on your blog. So what's a blog?
A blog is basically an online information site that publishes articles or posts, photos, links, video and audio, made by the site creator known as a blogger. I call myself a career blogger who just happens to be a nurse.
Most blogs allow readers to leave comments creating interaction between the blogger and their audience which is what makes blogs different from a static web page.
This interaction, along with the ability to share your published material, makes it worthwhile to invest your time. Especially if you have information, are a business owner or support a non profit organization, you want a blog to spread your message.
Nurses should ABSOLUTELY be blogging and I would like to see more nurses doing this.
1. If your a student nurse why not blog about your experiences, this could greatly help other student nurses especially if you have found an easier way to do something or want to create a community of student nurses who can support each other.
2. Blog about your nursing specialty. Other nurses who want to go into that specialty would love to hear your stories and learn from your experiences. They also would be able to ask questions and interact with you. Great way to build relationships.
3. Maybe you want to be a writer. You can be a freelance writer, non fiction or fiction writer or a nurse who writes for nursing journals or wants to do technical or research writing. Blogging is a great place to start, it will help you to find your voice and display your work so when you do go looking for a writing jobs you have a place to send people to for a sampling of your work.
4. Educate the public on healthcare issues or provide healthcare tips.
5. Promote your nursing business by blogging about your services, the benefits, how to, answering FAQs etc. A must for nurse entrepreneurs today.
6. Start a travel nursing blog for those of you nurses who do travel nursing. This is a hot topic now and other nurses would love to hear how to get started tips, where the jobs are, what are the best agencies to work for and tons more. I like reading travel nursing blogs and if I was 20 years younger this is what I would be doing.
7. Get a movement started! As a nurse you have power and can create change. Be proactive about an issue that is near and dear to your heart and it doesn't have to be about nursing.
But a word of caution here….you want to make it very clear, if you are talking about healthcare issues or giving advice on management of diseases, you are not a substitute for their primary care physician. You also want to talk in general terms about your experiences and lessons learned, not specifics about patients or their families.
Read my post on "6 Social Media Tips For Nurses" Blogging is part of social media and if you are new to blogging I recommend you read this post or even if you've been blogging for a while still read as a refresher. There's also a very useful book recommendation for you to read written by a nurse for nurses with a whole chapter dedicated to privacy, disclaimers and professional issues when using social media.
So how do you get started blogging?
~Have an objective, meaning what's the purpose of your blog – do you want to educate, make money from your blog, be a connector. What's the reason for starting your blog.
~Pick a platform and create an account. You can use blogspot.com or wordpress.com which are free but if you are serious about long term blogging, I highly recommend wordpress.org and purchasing your own domain name and hosting.
~Pick a name for your blog.
~Write an About page and a disclaimer page.
~Start writing high quality content.
That's it in a nutshell, there's certainly more involved in each step but I think you get the jest of it.
Blogging is no longer online journaling which is what it started out as way back when. It has evolved into a powerful tool nurses can use to share their knowledge with others around the globe.
Blogs are also a great way to organize your content using categories and tags. There's also a media library where you can store your photos and a search functionality so others (and you) can easily find what their looking for. If you are a creator of lots of content, blogs can be your content management system.
Another useful reason to have a blog is it can be a place to showcase your videos or power point slides of presentations you've done, interviews you've been a part of, you can share short reports, white papers, audios. Just endless possibilities for nurses who want to spread their mission to the world.
Your blog can be whatever you envision it to be, that's the beauty of a blog and it's why I love blogging!

Catering Insurance Kentucky. Caterers prepare food to serve at a customer's location or rented facility for parties, weddings, meetings, receptions, or other events. Food is usually prepared at the caterer's location, then transported to the event. The caterer's own staff generally sets up a buffet line or provides wait service to guests.
Caterers may rent chairs, decorations, dishes, linens, and tables. They may provide alcoholic beverages, served with or without a bartender. They may offer entertainment or music.
Whether you run a small catering operation out of your home kitchen or you run a large organization that caters food for big events, there are a lot of risks associated with owning and operating a catering business. You serve food to the general public which means that you need to make sure that it is 150 percent safe for consumption. You also have to meet the needs of your clients and make sure that the members of your staff are cared for; that's just a small portion of your responsibilities.
You've put a lot of hard work into establishing your catering business and you go above and beyond to make sure that all needs are being met and everything is running smoothly; but mishaps can happen. To protect yourself from the unexpected, it's important that you have the right type of catering insurance Kentucky in place.
Catering insurance Kentucky protects your business from lawsuits with rates as low as $47/mo. Get a fast quote and your certificate of insurance now.
Why Is Insurance Wo Important for Caterers?
Working as a KY caterer can be very rewarding, but it can also be extremely demanding. There's a lot that you need to attend to; the food you offer has to be safely prepared and made to the specifications of your clients, you have to provide a safe environment for your employees to work in, you make deliveries, you take orders, you handle money... that's just a small sampling of your responsibilities.
Even though you try your best to make sure that everything runs smoothly, you've got a lot on your plate, which means that mishaps are bound to arise. A vendor could slip and fall while making a food delivery to your facility; a client file a lawsuit against you, claiming that the food you served was responsible for food poisoning; an employee could cut herself while chopping fruits for a platter. These are just some of the issues that can arise, and you're legally responsible for all of them.
The cost of injuries, medical expenses, repairs, and legal fees and everything else that you could be facing if a travesty occurs can be exorbitant. Paying for these costs out of your own pocket could put you in financial ruin. That's why it's so important to have the right type of catering insurance Kentucky in place; it prevents you from having to pay such expenses yourself, which saves you from economic hardship and the potential loss of your livelihood.
What Type of Insurance do Caterers Need?
The exact type of catering insurance Kentucky and the amount of coverage a caterer should carry varies. There are several factors that affect your insurance needs, such as the size of your catering business, what type of clients you serve, how many employees are on-staff, and where your business is located.
Commercial General Liability - This type of insurance protects you against third-party personal injury and property damage claims. For instance, if a client claims that you damaged their kitchen while using it to prepare food for an event that they hired you for, commercial general liability will cover the legal expenses, as well as any damages that the client may be entitled to.
Workers Compensation - If you employ a staff, even if it's just one person, you'll need to carry workers' comp insurance. This coverage will help to pay for any medical care that staff members may need if they become injured or ill on the job; it can also cover a portion of the employee's lost wages and litigation, should he or she file a lawsuit against you.
Commercial Auto - If use a car, van, truck, or any other vehicle for work-related reasons, you'll also need commercial auto insurance. Should an employee cause an accident while making a food delivery, commercial auto will cover the cost of the damages that were made to the vehicle, building, or any other property that the employee crashed into.
These are just some of the insurance options that KY catering companies should invest in.
Premises liability exposure at the caterer's own location is minimal as there is little or no public access. The off-premises exposures are at locations generally not familiar to either the caterer or the customer. The caterer should review the area before the event to determine the hazards involved. Servers must be well trained in the handling of hot food.
Seating areas must be reviewed regularly for spills to reduce the exposure to slips and falls. Temperatures of hot beverages must be limited to reduce injuries due to scalding. All employees must be instructed in proper customer handling, including how to deal with disgruntled, intoxicated, or overly enthusiastic customers.
There should be a contract between the caterer and the client to prevent disputes. There must also be a contract between the caterer and the owner of the event facility so that each party's responsibilities are clearly understood.
Products liability exposure is higher than in an on-site eating establishment because of the time delay between food preparation and serving. Illness can result from food poisoning, contamination, and allergic reactions. Maintaining proper temperatures during transport is vital. Monitoring the quality of food received, posting of ingredients, and maintaining proper storage temperature can reduce this exposure. Quality control requires limits on the length of time food may stay in the buffet area.
Liquor liability exposure can be very high in states that hold caterers liable for injuries resulting from alcohol consumption. The type and amount of alcohol served directly impact this exposure. Failure to comply with state and federal regulations can result in the loss of a liquor permit which may adversely impact the business.
Employees who serve alcohol should complete training courses in recognizing intoxication problems and dealing with customers. This can be a particular problem at private parties where there may be an open bar. An agreement must be in place with the contracted party as to how to control this exposure.
Workers compensation exposures come from slips, falls, cuts, puncture wounds, burns, foreign objects in the eye, heavy and awkward lifting, and interactions with customers. Employees should be trained on the carrying of heavy dishes between the kitchen and the serving areas. Food and beverage handling can result in passing bacteria or viruses, resulting in illness. The employees tend to be minimum wage and turnover may be high. Company incentives to encourage long-term employment are positive signs of management control.
Property exposures are from electrical wiring, refrigeration units, cooking equipment, and heating and air conditioning systems. All wiring should be current, up to code, and well maintained. While cooking may be limited to ovens, there may be grills and deep fat fryers. These must have automatic fire extinguishing protection, hoods, and filters. There should be fuel shut offs and adequate hand-held fire extinguishers.
The kitchen must be kept clean and grease free to prevent fire spread. Filters should be changed frequently. Spoilage exposure is high as a small fire or a power outage of even moderate duration can cause all fresh and frozen goods to be condemned as unfit for consumption or sale. Business income and extra expenses can be minimized if there is an alternative location to prepare food if there is a loss.
Equipment breakdown exposures are high as operations are dependent on the availability of cooking and refrigeration equipment.
Crime exposures are from employee dishonesty and loss of money and securities. Criminal background checks should be conducted on any employee handling money. Cash from bars should be regularly stripped and moved to a safe area. All orders, billing, and disbursements must be handled as separate duties. Regular audits must be conducted.
Inland marine exposure includes accounts receivable from billings to customers, a special property floater for food and equipment transported and used off site, and valuable papers and records for customer and supplier information.
Business auto exposure is moderate due to the food being transported from the caterer's premises to the event location. While it is important to transport the food in a timely manner, there must be sufficient time provided for its safe transport. All drivers must have an appropriate license for the vehicle being driven and acceptable MVR. Company vehicles should be used for all deliveries.
These must be maintained with records maintained at a central location. If employees use their own vehicles, the vehicles should be checked for maintenance and upkeep. Because most personal auto policies do not provide coverage when the vehicle is used for commercial purposes, requiring proof of insurance will be of little assistance.
To make sure that your business is properly protected, speak to an experienced insurance agent to find out exactly what type of catering insurance Kentucky coverage you need and how much coverage you should carry.

During the past seventy years the United States has fought more wars and battles than I can count on the fingers of one hand. None of them have been authorized by declarations of war as prescribed by the US Constitution. The Korean War was termed a "police action". The Vietnam War was authorized by the "Gulf of Tonkin Resolution". And so forth. Only one war, the 1991 Gulf War, could be considered a success. The others ended in stalemate or defeat. And each of them could be described as an alien war. That is, wars and battles that were fought in countries where Americans were clueless in regard to local cultures and languages.
Dominic Tierney has written an article in the March/April 2015 issue of The National Interest that explains this history with great insight. The article is titled "The Rise of Alien Warfare". I would suggest that it be required reading for all of the candidates for president in 2016. Or specifically for those candidates who appear to champion our engagement in further alien wars in the Middle East. Mr. Tierney has written a book on the subject, "The Right Way to Lose a War: America in an Age of Unwinnable Conflicts". The book will be published in June 2015. Here are excerpts from Mr. Tierney's article in The National Interest.
From the War of 1812 to today's campaigns in the Middle East, both Washington's enemies and the local populations have become steadily less familiar in terms of language, religion and social traditions. Alien warfare reached its apogee with the post-9/11 mission to refashion Afghanistan—a landlocked country seven thousand miles away, with a largely unknown culture and a literacy rate lower than that of America in 1650.
OVER THE last two centuries, America's major wars have become increasingly alien experiences. Alien warfare refers not only to the unfamiliar nature of the environment, but also to the degree of direct engagement with another culture.
From 1945 to the present, is the era of alien wars, where conflict became a far more exotic undertaking than in the past. During this time, Washington fought five major wars: the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, the war in Afghanistan and the Iraq War. Every campaign occurred at least five thousand miles away from the continental United States. The climate and terrain were starkly different from those of the United States, from the thick jungles of South Vietnam to the barren moonscape of Helmand Province in Afghanistan.
During the 1960s, only a handful of American universities taught Vietnamese history or languages. By 1968, over half a million U.S. soldiers were deployed in South Vietnam. Later, in 2006, at the height of the violence in Iraq, there were about one thousand U.S. officials in the Baghdad embassy; a mere thirty-three of them spoke Arabic, and only six were fluent.
American troops engaged more directly with alien societies through counterinsurgency and nation building. After 1945, three out of five major wars—Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan—involved extensive guerrilla fighting. Washington tried to mold unfamiliar societies by creating new institutions, overseeing elections and building infrastructure.
THE RISE of alien warfare has severely eroded America's performance on the battlefield. If we define victory as the achievement of core aims with a favorable ratio of costs and benefits, before 1945, the United States won most of its major wars.
By contrast, since 1945, most major U.S. wars have ended in stalemate or defeat. Washington achieved a successful outcome in the Gulf in 1991. Korea, however, was a grim stalemate, in which nearly thirty-seven thousand Americans died to restore the prewar status quo. Cartoonist Bill Mauldin called it "a slow, grinding, lonely, bitched-up war." Vietnam was an even more punishing experience, where the United States faced outright military defeat for the first time in its history. Despite the deaths of fifty-eight thousand Americans, South Vietnam still fell to Communism.
In 2001, the United States swept aside the Taliban regime in Afghanistan. But the Taliban recovered, setting the stage for today's stalemated conflict. After a dozen years of tough fighting, with over two thousand Americans killed and twenty thousand wounded, and the expenditure of hundreds of billions of dollars, the campaign has been far too costly to be considered a success.
Meanwhile, the Iraq War was a clear failure. The conflict killed 4,500 Americans, injured over thirty thousand, presented Al Qaeda with a new battlefield, strengthened Iran by removing its nemesis Saddam Hussein, and triggered a spike in anti-Americanism. Overall, the United States has only won one of its five major wars since 1945.
The combination of culturally unfamiliar environments and sustained nation building and counterinsurgency proved toxic.
The "war on terror" frame presented Al Qaeda and the Taliban as fundamentally identical, even though Al Qaeda's goals are international and revolutionary whereas the Taliban's goals are mainly restricted to Afghanistan and Pakistan.
When Washington wades into a distant civil war, cultural differences damage the United States far more than the insurgency. The two sides battle for the loyalty of the people, but the rebels understand this prize much better than the Americans. The United States needs accurate intelligence to separate the guerrillas from the people. Washington, however, has limited knowledge of local social dynamics.
Alien warfare runs headlong into the most powerful political force in modern history: nationalism. The idea that every nation should decide its own fate free of external compulsion is now widely accepted—and is even inscribed into the UN Charter. After 1945, national self-determination was the insurgents' ace card. During the Cold War, Communist insurgents combined nationalism and Marxism in a "national liberation movement." More recently, the Taliban fused together nationalistic appeals against the foreign occupier with calls for stricter forms of Islam. As the United States found in Vietnam, trying to hold back the tide of nationalism can be a futile endeavor.

There are instances that WordPress hosted websites become quite sluggish. So the question is: how does one WordPress website load fast and the other doesn't? You do not have to mingle around hundreds of stuff people are taking about. Just focus on 2 specific things I am listing below and your WordPress website may load faster than 80% of the global websites load timing.
How does my own WordPress website load fast?
The very first thing I have done is: hosted with Siteground that provisions SSD. This alone makes heck lot difference in WordPress website load timing.
I spent a lot of time choosing hosting companies that do not care about offering you speed rather than space. Regardless of their upgrade plan, you stay right there in term of your website load timing and that never improves.
Quite the opposite of mainstream hosting companies, you must choose a hosting company that focuses more on speed and less on space. You may fall for unlimited space but you are compromising the speed. There is not a single technology that will make your site load faster once the main architecture it is hosted on is slow itself. It's just like adding too much spices to make a rotten food taste delicious. You won't be eliminating the stinky smell anyway; and this is the only thing to ruin your efforts in making the food delicious. Add amazing spices to only the food that is fresh and ready to offer the taste of your likings.
What else does make my WordPress website load fast?
The second most important thing I have done is to apply the right kind of caching plugin. When your contents grow and the hosting resources is minimum, you want the less load over to the server and deliver the cached contents that would load faster and give snappier impact in load time. In this aspect, you do not have to run after the overhauling ones but go for runner-ups. In this category I've chosen WP Fastest Cache (WPFC) which is one of the simplest Caching Plugins in UI and works one of the best ways possible. If you have used shared hosting plan, there is no match to this caching plugin.
What is the speed of my WordPress website load timing?
In my most current speed test with Pingdom Speed Test, it shows just below 1 second (704 MS). I chose San Jose California as the nearest server to run the test and the site appears to be faster than 90% of the global tests.
I have listed 5 specific things to speed up website in the list that really make your WordPress website load tremendously fast regardless of the tech knowledge you may pose. And, finally do not worry about the external caching since it's beyond your reach and won't impact negatively at all.

Sister Emmanuelle who passed away this week, named her organisation ASMAE (Listening). Why listening? To be in the listening mode is to honor my counter parts and to accept them. Any communication starts with listening. Since our childhood we have spent more time in learning to speak, yet we were hardly taught to listen, I mean deep active listening. In my leadership training I had to horn and improve my listening skills.
In the late 70's, during a night tour in the wild in Zulu land Natal, South Africa, I had the experience of being only a meter away from a Rhino. I was in the wind and kept completely silence. I was safe; the Rhino could not hear or smell me.
Christian D Warren, a leadership consultant, takes the qualities of the Rhinos, he has observed to teach leadership skills. His book, where he asks leaders to emulate Rhinos is well worth reading specially in this present difficult time we are facing with the financial crisis and the likely recession period. I reproduce hereunder relevant summary of his book"Running with the Rhinos".
If you want to see leadership, visit the zoo and head to the rhinoceros—the greatest role model for leadership. Why the rhino? He's sensitive to his environment and a great listener. Listening is a key in leadership. As Drucker noted, "The most important thing in communication is to hear what isn't being said." The rhino is also thick-skinned, well-balanced (on his large three-toed feet) and poised, despite his ungainly appearance.
And like a future-focused leader, the rhino is hard-charging when necessary, and he knows when to rest. He's aware of what other animals in the vicinity are doing, but he doesn't tailor his behavior to match or accommodate theirs. Great leaders set the pace, and like rhinos, are strong enough to carry the weight of the world on their well-armored shoulders.
To succeed today, you need to emulate rhinos. Leaders with a rhino-like mind-set never assume that the environment determines their success. They know they can attract and make money in any economy. In fact, strategically minded leaders with aggressive mentalities thrive during recessionary periods. Their competitors tend to fold when the economy sours, leaving the field wide open for rhino-leaders to charge.
Three Examples of Rhino-Leaders
Who are some of our modern-day rhino-leaders? Let's look at three.
Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple. Jobs launched the updated iPhone at a time when gas prices were soaring, the housing market was in a big slump, and the mood in the country could be described as "grim and grimmer." Jobs could have said, "Let's hold off. The economy's bad, and it will never support a new, expensive high-end phone." Jobs didn't waver. Instead, he charged like a rhino, and it worked.
When Jobs launched the iPhone in 2007, people were lined up around the block at Apple Stores, those distinctive and attractive sales environments, waiting impatiently to get their hands on Apple's newest toy. A year later, people are still waiting in line. In a press release sent just three days after the 2008 launch of the 3G, Jobs announced that Apple had already sold 1 million new models. Apple will likely sell 4.47 million phones in the fourth quarter this year.
Steve Jobs eschews traditional marketing approaches like focus groups and consumer studies. He has an uncanny ability to take the pulse of the marketplace, bringing out not just new products but new ways of shopping. First, he invents a category, like the iPhone, the iPod or iTunes, and then he turns everybody into people who either possess these things or wish they did.
That's the rhino approach in action: take no prisoners, ignore doomsayers, and create products unique enough and attractive enough to turn them from "what's that?" to "must have." Like a rhino, Jobs tramples everything in his path that suggests defeat. And he gets what he wants most of the time.
Another amazing characteristic of the rhino is his speed—a full-grown rhino is six-feet tall and weighs 4,000 pounds, yet it can move at a speed of 35 miles an hour. Rhino-leaders revel in moving quickly and taking advantage of opportunities.
Gary Kelly, CEO of Southwest. Southwest Airlines posted its 35th consecutive year of profitability, was the most punctual, lost the fewest bags, and had the fewest complaints. Why? Southwest has a rhino for a leader who communicates that while other airlines are cutting back on amenities and charging for services like checking bags, Southwest would offer more services, like Wi-Fi on its flights.
While the news media are creating negative marketing for Southwest's competitors—writing stories on all the ways they are reducing services, cutting back flights and charging for services that used to be free—Kelly trumpets Southwest's strategy of giving customers more. In an era of zero consumer loyalty and enormous information available to all, can you afford to give your customers less?
Tough times call for a tough role model, and no animal has a tougher skin than the rhino. Rhinos are sometimes called tanks because their skin appears to be divided into plates, creating the illusion that they are armor-plated. If you're going to survive and thrive in tough times, you must be just as thick-skinned as the rhino.
Norbert Reithofer, CEO of BMW. He is one thick-skinned rhino. Reithofer and BMW recently launched the 1 Series, a lower-end version, to appeal to younger, less-affluent buyers. When he began to hear criticism that the 1 Series was not a "pure" BMW, rather than bristle at the criticism, he created a marketing campaign via the Internet to let the world know that the 1 Series is every bit a BMW. For weeks, MSN.com and Yahoo.com advertised the 1 Series in dominant positions on their home pages. Go to YouTube and you'll find video clips of the new cars. Other automakers have not embraced new media, which leaves them in a position to be trampled by the fast, thick-skinned, rhino-like Reithofer.
These three top leaders and companies emulate aspects of the rhino: they communicate their message boldly; they offer speed and more services instead of cutting back; and they take a tough-skinned approach to criticism and going after prospects. The rhino always stays on message and is never daunted by changing circumstances. There's always one rhino in every industry. Make sure it's you!

Within just a few years, the televisual universe has advanced at warp speed. Whether LED, plasma or OLED, competing technologies have given us the richest colours and the deepest blacks. Screens are often thinner than a finger, and true high-fidelity sound has further enhanced the immersive experience. TV has become far more than just something to watch.
The first thing you'll notice is its eye-grabbing design. But turn it on and you'll be truly blown away. OLED technology generates colours out of this world, and the 450-watt Bang & Olufsen sound bar offers a stunningly detailed stereophonic soundscape, with broad frequency response and deep, deep bass.
How did they make the screen so slim? Well, by replacing LED technology with the latest organic light-emitting diodes (OLED). But besides its elegant profile, this stunning unit offers perfect contrasts and deeper blacks, rendering the colours dazzlingly lifelike.
Is it a TV? A painting? Both? The Frame blends seamlessly with any décor, and if it's TV you want, it's TV you get. But slip into "art" mode and this 4K screen can frame any of your favourite images, with precise colours and superb detail. You can upload anything you want to see. Even photos of fluffy kittens.


The Stratosphere is a hotel at the bottom of the Vegas strip and towers 1149ft above the hustle and bustle below. The tower itself stands out amongst the Vegas skyline and provides incredible views of the strip and desert beyond. It is quite something, and well worth a visit when in Vegas.
Recent years have seen me develop a fear of heights, I have no specific reason for this, it just seems to have happened. And my first true realisation of this was my visit up to the top of the Stratosphere tower.
The lift taking you to the top seemed to last forever, I began to feel a little nervous at the prospect of stepping out onto such heights. When I finally reached the top I did not want to leave the observatory area. However after a few minutes of my friend trying to coerce me, I finally stepped out.
The wind was really powerful and was blowing my hair in my face. It was a lot colder than on the ground. The views were immense. I could see the view from the edge-why would I need to move any closer to the railings?
I was so petrified of this experience you couldn't have paid me to go and hold onto those railings! I stuck near to the wall and could barely move. People were looking at me and laughing. I am not normally like this-where has this fear come from?!
I spent ages glued to the wall and I could see that my friend was starting to get tired of it. She really wanted to go on some of the rides at the top of the tower that were available. 'No way!!!!' I told her.
There were several rides there, first of all there was a ride where you would all sit around a pole and get shot into the air and back down at high speeds. This was on the point of the tower. I don't like those sorts of rides on the ground let alone at this height!! Secondly, there was a circular spinning ride that dangled you over the edge of the tower, again it looked petrifying! And thirdly there was a roller coaster type carriage that would shoot you off the edge of the tower and then retract. They all looked insanely scary to me.
However, after being a complete woos for what had probably been around an hour by this time, out of somewhere I developed this sudden boost of courage! I went over to those railings, followed by the roller coaster type ride!
The ride was sooooo scary! I absolutely almost wet myself from fright! I was being flung over the side of a 1149ft building at quite some speed and then dangled, overlooking the drop below! Who on earth thought up such an idea?!
Petrified on the top of the Stratosphere!
So I managed to get myself together and to stop shaking and went back down to the ground-where I liked it! From here we decided to check out some of the other hotels on the strip and went off exploring.
We were minding our own business at the New York New York hotel which was the a very long way from the Stratosphere when a man approached me. He said to me 'do you feel better now your feet are firmly on the ground?' I was very confused- I had never seen this man before!
He explained to me that he had been up the tower when I was glued to the wall and had seen how scared I was. I laughed and told him that I had since been on the roller coaster type ride! He was astounded, so much so that he called over his group of friends (about 10 other aged 50+ Americans) and they were all quizzing me about it and laughing at me!
It was so odd that I was approached about this in a completely different hotel, by people I had not even noticed! But then again I guess I was a bit preoccupied at the time to be looking at the people around me. Wow- what a funny experience!
I think perhaps this experience has scared me for life, as ever since I have been just as afraid of heights! What a memorable day!

Golfers and Visitacion Valley Community to Benefit from New Job-Training Academy at Gleneagles
San Francisco's public, nine hole Gleneagles Golf Course -- which overlooks the South Bay from a hillside perch above the Cow Palace in McLaren Park -- is the new site of an innovative Laborers Union pre-apprentice job-training academy, which will provide entry-level job-training for at-risk San Francisco youth, while at the same time providing some TLC and improved playing conditions for the golf course. The program was announced earlier this week by golf course manager Tom Hsieh, together with San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee and Union Leaders from the Northern California District Council of Laborers.
Hsieh's crusade to keep the 52-year-old, Jack Fleming-designed course open, was featured in a September, 2014 New York Times article -- "This Gleneagles Is a Scruffy Cousin":
"I care a lot about making sure this golf course is here for another generation of golfers," Hsieh said.
"By hook or by crook, we're going to bootstrap this golf course forward. It's always been that way."
San Francisco Chronicle columnist C.W. Nevius describes the innovative job training program at Gleneagles, designed to save the course while providing a much-needed public service to San Francisco's southern neighborhoods in "S.F. golf course an unlikely place to save young lives":
"... this week, in a trailer in the Gleneagles parking lot, a group of seven twentysomethings sat bolt upright at their desks, took copious notes and answered questions from their instructor, retired Marine Ken Mochida, with a firm, "Yes, sir." Understand, these aren't budding golfers. Asked if any of them had ever played golf, the group answered no, although some said they'd tried mini golf. But they aren't there to learn how to hit a 5-iron. They are there because the golf course, with the support of the Northern California District Council of Laborers, is training them to qualify as apprentices in the booming construction labor market. For them, Gleneagles is a classroom, workplace and potential springboard to full-time work at a union job — with medical benefits, a union wage and pension... But let's be honest, this was a program born of desperation. Hsieh has operated the course as a labor of love — which is another way of saying it isn't making money — for nine years. In July, he gave his 30-day notice to the city, and there were serious questions about whether the course would survive.
"It was really the need to repurpose Gleneagles," Hsieh said. "The course has always struggled, especially in the last few years with the decline in golf rounds and the drought. If we wanted to be here another 50 years, we were going to have to change the approach." That's not all that has changed. A program like this could potentially work at any golf course, but Gleneagles has an advantage -- it's right in the center of where people need it most."
"Innovation", "creativity" and "repurposing" are terms more commonly applied to high tech startups that municipal golf courses. The problems at Gleneagles golf course are a microcosm of the issues facing golf courses across California. Perhaps another favored startup term could be invoked here - "disruption". Hsieh may have found a disruptive model for a golf industry that could use some innovation.
See more about the Northern California District Council of Laborers pre-apprenticeship program in their Golf Course Academy Press Release:
"The Gleneagles Training Academy will provide a useful "classroom" experience for low income workers who are part of federal workforce programs, such as JobsNow!. The golf course is over 53 years old and is ideally located in the neighborhoods that have a disproportionate need for this special type of training. The goal is to provide a much higher level of job readiness, accountability, skills building, mentorship and follow through than any program in the state or nation. "For decades people from the neighborhoods could walk up to our gates but never find meaningful employment," said Tom Hsieh, general partner of Gleneagles Golf Partners, who operates the property through a lease with the Recreation and Parks Department. "Through this academy we will not only be helping people with jobs, we will be identifying new workers for careers in golf course maintenance, landscaping or the building and construction trades."


"Mr. Ranhofer is a big, good-natured Frenchman, who is very reticent over his success as a master of gastronomy…His office is so situated in the center of Delmonico's kitchen that he can reach any part of his domain at a moment's notice. To the left is the ice cream and pastry section. To the right the experts in meat, poultry, and fish have their departments. In the center the supplies for immediate use are stored, and along the opposite end is a row of ovens and ranges. The forty odd cooks under Mr. Ranhofer are as perfectly trained and drilled as a regiment of soldiers. They are formed into companies under the supervision of assistant chefs, who are responsible to Mr. Ranhofer for everything that comes within their departments. Four cooks rule over the roasting ovens, and eight men in the meat department devote their time to preparing the meats for the four roasters. Four men are responsible for the vegetables and fried dishes. Pastry in its various forms is in the hands of four experts. Three men make the ice cream. Two men make confections and cakes alone. Bread making is an art in itself, in charge of three bakers. Eight men are kept in reserve to clean up things and assist generally, and ten women and two men are occupied in washing pots and kettles and cleaning dishes. Over all the force Mr. Ranhofer keeps his eyes. He is familiar with the specialty of each of his cooks. He can give a scullery man points on scrubbing a soiled pot as well as tell the man in the meat or in the roasting department how to prepare a canvasback duck; he can judge an undercrust with the same certainty that he can bon bons, mottoes, or odd confections.
"When the dinner hour arrives the machinery of the service is set in motion by Mr. Ranhofer in the kitchen and by Eugene Garnier, the maitre d'hotel, in the banquet room. The head waiter looks for a glance from the matre d'hotel. Thirty waiters, one for every ten persons, stand silently by, expecting a look from the head waiter. The manager says 'all right' to the head waiter, the head waiter waves his hand at the waiters, and the thirty men go to their assigned places at the tables. The head waiter has divided the men under him into squads of six or ten, and has given the best waiter in each squad instructions to keep a watchful eye over the more inexperienced men. The matre d'hotel communicates through a speaking tube with the chef.
"In the kitchen the forty cooks stand silently in their various departments. They are not permitted to talk more than is absolutely necessary. When the manager has told the chef to go ahead, the cooks in charge of the coppers of soup send up the dumb waiter to the pantry on the banqueting room floor two tureens of soup. The carver, who acts as an intermediary between the cooks and the waiters, stations himself in the pantry. His office is one of the most responsible of all in connection with the banquet. In serving the soup and the other dishes he must use keen judgment, so that all of the diners shall be equally served, and that without waste. The soups are cooked in advance, and kept hot in closed pots immersed in hot water. In making the soup the cooks work on a basis of one quart to four to six persons, although in most restaurants the portions are not so generous.
"When the soup has been sent up from the kitchen, down the speaking tube comes one word, 'Next!' and the timbales à la Marly are hurried up the stairs. The fish has been prepared in advance of the dinner, and the four frying cooks stand in readiness to take from the warming closets the sole, which is nearly 100 pounds in quantity. When the call of 'Next!' comes down the tube again the fish is hurried up to the carver, who apportions the course out to the waiters, with potato croquettes which come from four vegetable cooks. The saddle of venison is called from the four roast cooks, and then the highest ingenuity of the carver is called into play. The sight of him as he slices the huge chunks of venison into portions of equal size with quick and graceful motions would make the most confident Father of a family ashamed to sit at the head of his domestic board. So closely can the skillful carver adapt his material to the number of diners that when the musicians take their share hardly enough meat is left for a two-portion stew.
"The entrees are cooked in the order of service. While the banqueters are eating their venison the eight men in the meat department have sent the pullets to the roasting cooks, who make ready the pullet à la Moray for the first entrée. While the pullets are being prepared, the vegetable cooks are frying the artichoke bottoms, the meat cooks are putting on the cutlets, some of the assistants are getting the string beans ready for service, 100 terrapins have been turned over by the men in the meat room to the roasting cooks, and the seven men in the ice cream and pastry sections, who have been comparatively idle up to this point, get the sherbets, hot entremets, and ice cream ready to send up. The canvasback ducks receive the attention they deserve. One word from the matre d'hotel promptly brings each course to the floor above.

Evil Dead's Hail to the Deadites Announced For Fantasia Film Festival
Luke Luby
Hail to the Deadites, a documentary focused on hardcore fans of the Evil Dead franchise, is getting its world premiere next month. Announced for the Fantasia International Film Festival, the movie looks to explore the intricacies of the franchise's still growing popularity. It includes interviews with fans and movie collectors, alongside the cast and crew involved in the first film.
Since debuting in 1981, the Evil Dead franchise has spawned four films and a television series, alongside comic books and action figures. It's also been referenced in countless other films and TV shows, as well as being parodied extensively.
Alongside featuring fans, Hail to the Deadites includes interviews with lead actor Bruce Campbell. Betsy Baker, Ted Raimi, Kassie Wesley DePaiva, Sarah Berry, and a host of other well-known names in the franchise also appear throughout the movie. As such, it looks to explore what made the films so unique, especially when it comes to the original Evil Dead.
The film has been in production for the past seven years, with the Fantasia International Film Festival set to be the first time it's being shown publicly. However, the ongoing pandemic has meant that the festival has decided to go online instead of being held in person. As a result, the majority of films set to premiere at the festival will make their way to Fantasia's website for a limited period.
While Evil Dead fans around the world would think that this would give them a chance to see the film, that's unfortunately not the case. Instead, the film will be geo-locked for Canadian audiences only, which means fans from outside of the country won't be able to see it.
Developed and produced by DiggerFilms, Hail to the Deadites is set to stream on the Fantasia website between August 20 and September 2.
