GROWING UK TECH INDUSTRY SUPPORTIVE OF UK ENTREPRENEUR VISA PROGRAM
After much debate and discussion in recent years in respect to curbing the ever increasing UK Immigration, the UK Government is closely monitoring current immigration policies with a view to building an immigration system which is fair to both migrants and the citizens of UK.
The Government is now revisiting all immigration policies and is looking to amend, strengthen or abolish any type of visa to secure a balance and to attract non EU immigrants to the country. No visa category is untouched. Following the recent abolishment of the Tier 1 Post Study Visa, under which international students were able to seek employment with a British firm, the Government is now reviewing the UK Entrepreneur Visa program to determine ways of separating the real, genuine entrepreneur migrants from the not so serious investors who exploit the system to enter UK under the façade of the of the business visa.
The UK Entrepreneur program was created to allow non-EU business persons the opportunity to establish a new business in the UK, by way of investing a minimum of £200,000 into an existing company to secure job creation for British or EEA nationals, or persons with settled status in the UK. Currently under scrutiny from the Migration Advisory Committee, the UK Government is considering strengthening the program so that it achieves the right objective – i.e. job creation and business sustainability. It plans to do so by conducting a much more thorough review of investors' applications, their business and marketing proposal and the type of business that they are wishing to set up in the UK. The success of the application will be tried against many new factors and proposals, which the UK Government plans to implement, and will depend on the quality of business brought in to the country.
The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) recommends a third party endorsement which would allow industry experts (such as UK Trade & Investment) to endorse applications for a limited number of visas and to conduct 'the genuine entrepreneur test' (where the investor does not have the endorsement of a third party). For example, the UKTI could work with Business Angels Association, a business network providing interesting funding solution, to explore the potential of approving such third party funding following the successful approval of a UK Entrepreneur application. Alternatively, less emphasises could be placed on assessing the authenticity of business plan but more evidence of investor's entrepreneurial record, work experience, skills and qualification directly relevant to proposed business venture can be requested. Investors could also be asked to report on the progress of their business to demonstrate relevant activities to grow the business.
Following the Committees' recommendations and much discussion with the UK Government in respect of the types of business that UK wants and needs established, it may be so that the investment threshold can be lowered to reflect low start-up funding requirements in some innovative sectors – specifically concerning UK's fast growing technology industry.
In support of the fast evolving technology industry, the Government is prepared and eager to introduce new 'tech nation' visa scheme, which will allow start-up companies active in specific UK regions ( Hull, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Sheffield, Sunderland) to secure the high calibre non-EU workers with 'exceptional promise' they need for the advancement of their products, services and operations.
Overall the MAC feels that these reforms could benefit both UK residents and the country itself in the way that it would only attract and encourage fewer but higher-quality applicants to apply. With refusal rates (currently at 48%), it is anticipate that the investors will eagerly embrace news on Government's new proposals and changes to Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) visa category and its new look for 2016.


The bigger and denser the city you live in, the more unhappy you're likely to be.
Urban living increases employment prospects and consumption opportunities but also exposes individuals to numerous urban problems including high living costs, congestion, pollution, crime, and traffic among others. New research by John Winters and Yu Li examines the overall effects of urban living on happiness in the US as measured by self-reported life satisfaction. They find that living in large metropolitan areas and counties with higher population densities reduces average happiness levels.
The pursuit of happiness is a fundamental human objective, and social scientists have long suggested that individual happiness depends on where one lives. Urban living has the potential to greatly affect well-being in many ways, both good and bad. Concentrating workers in densely populated urban areas creates many production advantages due to cost efficiencies from large scale production, better employer-employee job matching, and increased creation and dissemination of knowledge among skilled workers. It has become a stylized fact that average productivity and wages are higher in urban areas for the US and numerous countries around the world.
Urbanization also facilitates consumption and recreational opportunities not available in less densely populated areas. Many specialized goods and services have per capita demand that is too low to support their existence in less populated areas. There simply are not enough customers in less dense areas for some producers to be able to make a profit and stay in business. However, a larger customer base increases demand and makes provision viable. Examples include live professional entertainment (such as sports, music, and theater), museums, specialized medical practices, specialized restaurants, and various boutique retailers. Similarly, a larger population also facilitates greater numbers and diversity of local clubs with shared interests such as book clubs, cooking clubs, running clubs, etc.
However, packing many people into dense locations creates adverse consequences as well. The scarcity of urban land relative to its demand causes prices to be bid up reducing the affordability of housing. This also increases costs for employers and prices for other locally consumed goods and services. Some urban workers respond by finding more affordable living costs in outer suburbs and commuting long distances to work, which increases traffic, commute times, and air pollution. Additionally, the production advantages in urban areas are not distributed equally, and urbanization may adversely affect social capital, cohesion, crime, and good governance. Living in highly populated areas may also increase anonymity and alienation for some.
The net effects of urban living on individual happiness are theoretically ambiguous and a source of considerable debate among researchers. We use data for the US from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) to examine the overall effects of urban residence on happiness as measured by individual responses to a question asking, "In general, how satisfied are you with your life?" Individuals choose among categories of Very satisfied, Satisfied, Dissatisfied, or Very dissatisfied. We convert these to a numeric scale for life satisfaction from one to four with one being Very dissatisfied and four being Very satisfied. We measure urbanization in two ways: 1) based on residence in urban areas of differing population sizes and 2) based on population density in the county of residence.
Our main results for the overall effects of urban population on happiness are shown in Figure 1, which gives regression-adjusted average differences in our life satisfaction measure relative to non-urban counties for urban size categories increasing in size from left to right. Micropolitan areas are small urban areas not large enough to be considered metropolitan. We classify metropolitan areas as small, medium, large, and very large based on respective population groups of less than 250 thousand, 250 thousand to one million, one million to four million, and four million or larger.
Our results show that all of the urban categories have lower average life satisfaction than the non-urban category used as the basis for comparison, but the differences for the micropolitan areas and small metro areas are small in magnitude and not a major source of concern. However, the negative effect magnitudes increase with urban size and become sizable for the largest population groups. For example, very large metro areas reduce average resident life satisfaction in ways that move 2.6 percent of the population to a lower life satisfaction category. This is a sizable magnitude in the life satisfaction literature and suggests that metropolitan size has considerable adverse effects on average happiness.
We also find consistently adverse effects of county population density on life satisfaction, even within metropolitan areas. We also explore effects of various natural amenities and report evidence that winter warmth significantly increases average happiness, consistent with expectations that people dislike cold winters.
Understanding the overall effects of urbanization on life satisfaction is important in numerous ways, and our results strongly indicate that the overall effects are on average negative. However, our study does not inform which factors are driving this negative effect. It is likely some combination of various adverse effects.
We speculate that high housing costs and long commute times are likely fundamental sources of urban dissatisfaction. In that regard, reducing policy distortions such as excessive zoning in order to make housing more affordable could have considerable effects on improving happiness. However, if housing costs are not the major source of dissatisfaction, then reducing regulations could further increase urban population, density, and other sources of urban dissatisfaction, possibly worsening life satisfaction. Similarly, improvements in transportation infrastructure may ease congestion initially but further encourage growth so that life satisfaction is not increased in the long run. Better understanding the specific causes of urban unhappiness is an important direction for future research.
A further question concerns why so many people continue to live in large dense areas if doing so reduces their happiness. US residents have historically exhibited high rates of internal migration compared to their European counterparts, and social scientists expect population to flow toward areas offering higher well-being. One possibility is that urban employment increases skill accumulation, wage growth, accomplishments, and social networks that are beneficial for future happiness, so that young people endure temporary unhappiness in the hopes of increasing future happiness. However, these hopes are not always realized, and some may later find themselves stuck in less happy situations in large cities. They are stuck because moving is costly financially, socially, and psychologically, and moving costs likely increase with age. Policies that aid migration for financially constrained households desiring to move out of large dense areas may help improve well-being both for the out-migrants and the urban residents that they leave behind as their former cities become less congested.
This article is based on the paper, 'Urbanisation, natural amenities and subjective well-being', in Urban Studies.

One more memory of Ben Puckett's kindness
Posted on: June 05,2013
Ben Puckett was a big-time giver: to Mississippi State, to the U.S. Olympic effort, to your Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame and Museum, to his employees and to countless other causes and relief efforts.
He grew up poor, made himself wealthy and then did all he could to make better the lives of other folks.
"People will never ever know, and Ben never wanted people to know, all he has done behind the scenes," said close friend Cal Wells. "Ben was a giver for all the right reasons."
Puckett loved children and doted on them. Those who know him best say that he loved to make kids happy because he never had much of a childhood himself. He worked to help put food on the table and shoes on his feet as a young lad.
Sometimes, I think small kindnesses — as much as writing big checks — show the true virtue of a person.
I'll give you just one up-close-and-personal example of Ben's kindness.
This was 14 years ago when I had a book of columns that had just been published and I was selling and signing them at a Mississippi State baseball game. My daughter, Annie, 9 years old at the time, was my one-person sales staff. She handed out the books, collected the money, and counted out change — while I signed and chatted.
At one point in the afternoon, a slow time in the selling of books, Ben stopped by and was smitten at once by Annie, who was smitten at once by Ben.
"You selling many books, honey?" Ben asked.
"Not any more," Annie answered.
So Ben proceeded to tell Annie how much he enjoyed her daddy's writing and that he needed to buy some books for Christmas gifts. This, by the way, was in April or May.
"How good is your math, honey?" Ben asked Annie.
She responded something to the effect that math wasn't her best subject but she tried really hard, which was the gospel truth.
"How much are these books?" Ben asked, picking one up and looking at it.
Annie told him.
"Well, if you can figure out how much 15 of them will cost me, that's how many I want to buy," Ben said.
I wish you could have seen the smile on Annie's face. I wish you could have seen the smile on Ben's face while he watched her get serious and start doing the math. She had to erase a couple of times but she beamed when she came up with the price.
"That comes to (whatever it was)," Annie said.
"Sounds about right to me," Ben said.
"Will you take a check?" Ben asked.
Annie looked at me. I told her I was pretty sure Mr. Ben was good for it.
Annie counted out 15 books, a stack that was about as big as she was. Ben wrote the check.
"Pleasure doing business with you young lady," Ben said, smiling.
Annie grinned back, obviously quite proud of herself.
And I still don't know who enjoyed it more: Annie or Ben. Or me.
Friends and family filled St. James Episcopal Church for the funeral service of Ben Puckett Wednesday. It was an uplifting service, much deserved.
Memorials may be made to the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame, 1152 Lakeland Dr., Jackson, MS 39216.

Wallace McMillan says:
Rick—Thanx for sharing the "great Book Sale" story. I'm sorry I never got to know Ben–By all accounts he was a great man. I do appreciate you sharing with us—
Jack Carlisle says:
I had the privilege to work with Ben forty odd years ago in the formation of Jackson Prep. There is no doubt that his contribution is one of the reasons Prep is the outstanding institution that it is.
A great Man in every respect and will be missed by the whole state.

Where Next for Brazilian Women's Football?
Moments after the Brazilian women's team had lost to Canada in the Olympic bronze medal match at the Arena Corinthians in São Paulo a touchline reporter approached Formiga, the Brazilian football legend who had just come to the end of her sixth, and at 38 years of age, probably her last Olympic Games.
Understandably she appeared emotional. It could be the end of the Cristiane-Marta-Formiga triumvirate that has been at the forefront of women's football for the last decade and was almost certainly her last shot at a major international title. But when she spoke Formiga was not focussed on her own wonderful story but on the future. Almost pleading with the watching public she said, "Please don't give up on us".
To the outside observer it would probably seem slightly strange. Why would she have to implore the country not to give up on them after they had just finished in a respectable fourth place in a competition in which several strong teams had gone out in the earlier stages? Can you imagine one of the players from the US, Sweden or Canada having to do the same?
It is an unfortunate reflection of the esteem in which women's football is held in Brazil, particularly by those in positions of power in the media, the Brazilian Football Federation and the big football clubs.
Formiga's plea fell on deaf ears, at least at the CBF (the Brazilian FA). Their first reaction to the disappointment of fourth place at the Rio Games was to withdraw funding for the permanent women's national team.
Formiga in her first Olympic Games, Atlanta 1996
Following the model of the US Women's National Team, a set of players had received a salary directly from the CBF since 2015 allowing them to focus on football full-time to try to improve the performance of the seleção feminina. However, after a poor 2015 World Cup and no medal at Rio 2016 the project was deemed a failure.
It would be impossible to imagine the US Soccer Federation doing the same if the USWNT fail to perform in their next tournament after going out in the quarters in Rio but this is the precarious reality of Brazilian women's football.
Ana Paula Silva, an anthropologist at the Fluminense Federal University in Rio de Janeiro says that, the CBF "finishing with the [permanent] women's national team is to discredit and insult women's football, which already faces huge challenges in a country that sees football as a 'man's game'." The sorts of sexist attitudes Silva is talking about are certainly a huge part of the problem, Brazil is still a country in which macho culture reins.
There is also another cultural factor that has contributed to the withdrawal of these vital funds at this particular time. Brazil is a country obsessed with winning and winners. If you triumph you are a hero, elevated to a deity-like status by the media and the public. If you lose, even if the loss is due to uncontrollable factors such as injury, you are "less than nothing", as Marta herself said in the days leading up to the Olympics.
This attitude was shown most clearly by the differeing reactions to the Judo athlete Rafaela Silva after London 2012 and Rio 2016. After she was defeated in London she was disgustingly racially abused on social media, called a 'monkey' by her compatriots. In Rio, however, she took home the gold medal, Brazil's first of the games, and was held up as a national icon.
Just recently Tim Vickery penned a piece for Australian website SBS about the Brazilian nation's "perennial need for a villain", and respected Brazilian Journalist Eliane Brum wrote in El País that "when those who should succeed suffer a defeat, they are punished as if they had betrayed the entire country. It is at this moment that the conflicts appear, and the racism, homophobia and sexism… [of the Brazilian people] explode…. There is no doubt that if [Silva] had lost again, she would once more be a 'monkey'."
It is partly owing to this capricious disposition that the women's football team has had its funding withdrawn at this time. Had they beaten Sweden in the semi-final penalty shootout and guaranteed themselves at least a silver, things could have panned out differently.
There are those, even within the women's game, that argue that rather than having a permanent national team the focus should be on creating a strong base of national professional football with youth leagues to develop young talent. However, whilst these structures do not exist it is absolutely necessary to maintain the permanent national team to improve, and thus bring more attention to, women's football in Brazil.
The two things are not mutually exclusive. The CBF, if it so wished, could provide the resources for a permanent women's national team and provide the conditions for strong domestic championships.
Current coach of the Corinthians/Audax women's team Arthur Elias says that "the CBF and the São Paulo football federation treat [women's football] as an amateur game, this makes it difficult to attract fans and sponsors. We're on the way to professionalization but we're not there yet."
Many women who play the game at the highest level domestically struggle to make a living from it. Even Santos, who have one of the highest wage bills out of any women's team in the country have a salary cap of R$4,000 per month, about £940 at current exchange rates, many athletes earn far less than this.
Taking away the permanent national team, which pays players at least R$9,000 per month, giving them some financial stability, will only encourage more young talent to seek work in other areas where the prospective remuneration is higher and a career far longer.
There is a potentially very large audience for the women's game in the país do futebol. The average attendance for the women's seleção's games at the Rio Olympics was 45,375, which compares favourably with the average of 55,668 who went to watch the men's games.
TV audiences were also huge for the women's games during the Olympics, particularly the semi-final against Sweden. This is nothing new, international women's football games have drawn large television audiences here since they were first broadcast during the 2007 World Cup in China.
Research released by Globo in the week of the Olympic final and semi-final also revealed that 'women's football' was the term most searched on Google in Brazil in those seven days. On the 13th and 16th of August searches relating to women's football outnumbered those relating to men's football by five to one.
The reaction to the women's team from the public was largely positive during the Games, especially after their first two matches which they won comfortably whilst the men's team struggled to 0-0 draws against Iraq and South Africa. One of the enduring images of Rio 2016 was that of a young boy on his way to a match who had scribbled out the name of Neymar Jr on his shirt and replaced it with that of Marta.
This is not the time for the CBF to reduce or withdraw funding but rather to increase it to build on the interest that was whipped up by a home Olympics. The women's team has for the past decade far outperformed the financial investment it receives from the football federation but this cannot go on forever. Just like in the men's game, poor organisation from the CBF will eventually come back to bite them.
The onus also falls on the clubs and mainstream media outlets. It is true that women's football games in the domestic leagues draw tiny crowds but empty stadiums are a problem that also affects the men's game. If the big clubs, the television channels and the CBF were more willing to invest time into promoting the women's game there is potential for crowds and TV audiences to grow exponentially.
Santos take on Rio Preto in the final of the Campeonato Feminino
The final game of the women's São Paulo State championship, between Santos and Rio Preto, was broadcast on the Sunday morning following the Olympics on SporTV, one of the biggest sports networks in the country. Far more games of this status are needed on free-to-air television to raise the profile and prestige of domestic tournaments.
The Brazilian people have to play their part as well. If the demand is there, and clearly it is to some extent, the media will be forced into covering games. People must to take to social media to let the broadcasters know that there is an audience waiting to watch the matches. It is only with these audiences the sponsorship money that is so desperately needed will come flowing in.
Conditions appear to be ripe for the beginning of a virtuous cycle of higher audiences, more coverage and increasing revenues but somebody needs to make the first move.
It would be a terrible shame if this opportunity went to waste and at the next major tournament we again see a Brazilian player having to beg for support from the public, and the powers that be, to continue building on the foundations that Formiga and co have worked so hard to lay.

Harden scores 21 points, Rockets beat Thunder for 2-0 lead
Houston Rockets guard James Harden (13) celebrates with forward Jeff Green, left, after a play against the Oklahoma City Thunder during the fourth quarter of Game 2 of an NBA basketball first-round playoff series, Thursday, Aug. 20, 2020, in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. (Kim Klement/Pool Photo via AP)
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) — James Harden had 21 points and nine assists and the Houston Rockets made 19 of an NBA-record 56 3-point attempts to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 111-98 on Thursday for a 2-0 lead in the first-round Western Conference series.
For all the long-range shots, Harden said the Rockets actually won with defense. Houston held the Thunder to 39 points after the break.
"We played well," he said. "We didn't shoot the ball particularly well tonight. But I think defensively, especially in that second half, we did an unbelievable job just gearing in what they like to do and correcting our mishaps in that first half."
Former Thunder star Russell Westbrook was out for the Rockets again with a right quad strain, but plenty of other Houston players picked up the slack. Danuel House Jr. scored 19 points.
"It's not pride, it's just team energy," House said. "We want to make sure that guys are not caring about themselves so guys are showing great energy on the court and off the court."
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 31 points for the Thunder, and Danilo Gallinari added 17.
Oklahoma City dominated the second quarter and led 59-53 at halftime. The Thunder shot 50% in the half. Houston missed its last 15 3-pointers in the second quarter, and Harden scored just eight points on 2-for-10 shooting in the half.
The Rockets went on a 13-0 run early in the second half to regain the lead. Gilgeous-Alexander, who had been cold in the bubble, made three straight 3-pointers to highlight an 11-0 run that put the Thunder ahead again. The Thunder held on and led 78-77 at the end of the third quarter.
Oklahoma City led 80-77 before the Rockets broke away with a 17-0 run, mostly with Harden on the bench.
"Unbelievable, man," Harden said. "That was the game right there. The guys just took it upon themselves to guard and we felt in the sense Oklahoma City was getting tired and we just kept pressing the gas on them."
While the Rockets kept the pressure on, Oklahoma City relaxed.
"I don't know if it was stagnant or slow, whatever it was, but we weren't necessarily playing with that same kind of force that we did in that first half," Thunder coach Billy Donovan said.
Oklahoma City's Chris Paul, the All-Star guard, blamed himself. He was held to 14 points on 6-for-15 shooting.
"I've got to do more," he said. "Straight up. It's that simple. That run they went on at the beginning of the fourth quarter — that can't happen. Got to be better. I've got to be better."
Rockets: Made 8 of 16 3-pointers in the first quarter, but just 2 of 19 in the second. … Took 10 shots inside the 3-point line in the opening period. … Harden had five assists in the first quarter. … Did not have a turnover in the first half.
Thunder: Had nine turnovers in the third quarter. … C Steven Adams had eight points and 11 rebounds. He made all four of his shots, but all were in the first half. He went scoreless after the break.
DORT RETURNS
Thunder guard Lu Dort returned to the starting lineup after missing Game 1 with a right knee sprain. He scored eight points in 25 minutes.
"He wasn't necessarily on a minutes restriction, but we wanted to watch his minutes tonight, just to make sure that he could not get set back," Donovan said.
Houston coach Mike D'Antoni, joking about the bubble situation and drawing a laugh from his players: "I just told the team all we did was defend home court. Now we have to go to Oklahoma City and play. So we have to come back third game with same kind of intensity, same kind of mentality and see what happens."
Game 3 is Saturday.

Customers will be delighted by Virgin Media offer for its set-top box upgrade
Virgin Media has called the plan one of the 'largest customer upgrade programmes' ever carried out in the UK

It's a great day to be a Virgin Media customer today (Image: Virgin Media)
Virgin Media is giving away something for nothing by offering its customers a free upgrade to a V6 box.
It means a completely free service for its new updated TV box - and hours of telly viewing during the long winter nights.
It should cost £20 but customers can ask for the premium set-top box which lets you record up to six shows while watching a seventh one,
reveals the Mirror.
Current customers will be contacted in the next few weeks with details of how they can get the new box.
Virgin expects that most people will be able to set the next box up themselves without needing an engineer to come out.
Virgin Media have called the plan one of the "largest customer upgrade programmes" ever carried out in the UK.

But how does it compare to Sky? Virgin Media's arch nemesis Sky has its own equivalent of the box, the Sky Q, which customers have to pay at least £20 for.
According to Virgin Media, for some customers it's up to £199. Either way, Sky also requires an 18-month commitment when you sign up.
Virgin Media set top box
Half the size of the previous TiVo box, the V6 , also supports 4K Ultra-High Definition (UHD) TV, plus Netflix, YouTube and iPlayer, meaning that you'll be getting a serious upgrade to your TV watching.
And there's nothing more we want to do in January than sit on our sofa.

David Bouchier, Chief Digital Entertainment Officer at Virgin Media said: "We believe that our finest kit shouldn't just be for new customers.
"So we're kicking off one of the largest existing customer upgrade programmes ever seen in the UK, accelerating the rollout of our best ever set-top box."
"Our customers tell us how much they love using the V6 box and watch more TV when they have one.

As a central entertainment hub, fired by our superior ultrafast broadband, the V6 is built for apps and the best on-demand TV experience - whether its iPlayer, Netflix or thousands of Box Sets."
"Rightfully, our customers expect the best, and with top-notch TV to lightning-fast broadband, that's exactly what they are getting."

Pretty much everyone has heard of Black Friday. And many people have heard of Cyber Monday. But "Small Business Saturday" is a new retail campaign that's just getting started. I'm a big fan of Small Business Saturday because I believe in buying local and supporting the Michigan economy. So yesterday, the Saturday after Thanksgiving, I went shopping. Locally.
I'd been meaning to get out to see The Christmas Tree shop in Benton Harbor for some time now but I just never made time to do it. Until yesterday. Yesterday I made a point of driving out to The Christmas Tree shop to see what the store had to offer. I already have my Christmas tree up and decorated. The theme is "St Joseph". I have lots of nautical and carousel ornaments, a few Chicago, St Joseph, and Saugatuck ornaments, a handful of beachy ornaments, and a nice collection of glass balls to add to the mix. I'm always on the lookout for more ornaments in keeping with my theme and that's what I had in mind to look for at The Christmas Tree.
The Christmas Tree is located 4 miles north of St Joseph on M-63 (at the blinking light intersection, Paw Paw Ave/Mizpah Park Rd. make a left heading west and it's on your right).
When you enter the building and turn to your right you'll enter the Christmasy side of the shop.
You can browse for a good long time here because there are lots of interesting displays.
Some are arranged by style, some by color.
They have a large selection of ornaments, lights, and home decor, all moderately priced. One thing I really appreciated was that they didn't carry the same ole, same ole displays you see in the retail chain stores... Hallmark, Thomas Kincaid, Christopher Radko, etc. They had a nice eclectic selection of items, many I hadn't seen before.
And check this out, they even had a couple upside down Christmas trees! Very cool!
There's something for everyone! But wait, there's more... keep going and you'll come into the room of tasty treats!
They have a table of samples all set up for your tasting pleasure. I highly recommend their chocolate pretzels and mint dip. NOT TO BE MISSED!
The ladies at the checkout were very friendly and helpful. If you can't find what you're looking for, just ask them. That's what I did when I couldn't find a new ornament for my St Joseph collection.
They had the perfect ornament and it is now hanging on my tree. It's pure Michigan!
Head out to The Christmas Tree and find that special ornament for your tree and support the local economy while you're at it. Spread a little Christmas cheer locally this holiday season!

Pence, Gingrich make the final cut in Trump's VP search, sources say
By: CNN Wire
As anticipation builds for Donald Trump to name his vice presidential pick, two hopefuls — Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich — appear to be the front-runners, according to a person familiar with the deliberations.
Also still in the mix: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Trump will likely make the announcement on Friday, the source said.
Pence introduced Trump at a rally Tuesday in Indiana that served as an audition of sorts as the presumptive Republican nominee closes in on a decision. The Indiana governor happily played the role of attack dog by slamming Hillary Clinton and saying she "must never become president of the United States."
Pence and Trump had a private, one-on-one conversation at the fundraiser, according to a source who was there.

"You're gonna call him … and you're gonna say governor — or vice president — we're winning too much!" Trump said of Pence at the rally.
In a change in plans, Trump later decided to spend the night in Indianapolis "because it was logistically easier" to go straight from there to California, a campaign aide confirmed to CNN.
Earlier in the day, Pence lavished praise on the presumptive GOP nominee, comparing Trump to Ronald Reagan and using the phrase "make America great again" Tuesday afternoon when he spoke with reporters after an event in Indianapolis.
"I think he is someone who has connected with everyday Americans like no one since Ronald Reagan," Pence said. "I think he has spoken into the frustration and the longings of the American people as no one since the 40th president, and I think you're going to continue to see him do that."
The Indiana governor and former congressman has already passed one important hurdle, the source said: "(The) Pence vet was completely clean and that mattered. No one needs an extra hassle."
Pence and his wife Karen met with Donald and Melania Trump at Trump's golf course in New Jersey early this month — a meeting Pence brought up Tuesday.
"I will tell you that we've been honored to spend some time with Mr. and Mrs. Trump," he said. "We were very moved by how gracious and kind they were to our family. And I think he is going to be a great president."
But Pence isn't the only VP prospect making headlines: Fox News said Tuesday it is suspending Gingrich's contract since the former speaker is also on Trump's vice presidential short list. Some of Gingrich's allies have been "heavily lobbying" the campaign, one of the source's told CNN.

"Clearly Gov. Pence is deeply in the running, (New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie) is. I've been part of the process. We'll see what happens over the next two to three days. It's a little like 'Apprentice' — you see in a few days who the last one standing is," Gingrich said.
Some donors are pressuring Trump to pick Gingrich. A source close to Sheldon Adelson tells CNN that the casino magnate spoke to Trump and mentioned that "he liked Newt."
"Favoring is a more appropriate term," the source said of Adelson's conversation with Trump.
Former rival turned supporter Ben Carson told CNN's Erin Burnett Trump won't be making a rash decision — but it also could bring the unexpected.
"Well, I think that one of the things that you've seen throughout this whole process is that Donald Trump is unpredictable. He's going to be careful, he's going to be very, very deliberate," he said on Tuesday night.


The Kumbh Mela, the world's largest human congregation of religious pilgrims is a UNESCO recognized cultural heritage fair for celebrating humanity held periodically by the banks of the Ganges in 4 (four) rotating locations. The origin of this event is traced back to Hindu mythology where the Hindu scriptures mention an event called Samudra Manthan wherein the Gods and the Demons battle over the ownership of the illusive and magical potion for immortality, and in a bid to avert the magic potion from being in the wrong hands, Vishnu the deity assigned with the preservation and conservation of life transports the potion contained in a pot shaped vessel known as Kumbha. While doing so, a few drops of the same spill from the container vessel and fall on four very distinct locations on planet earth, where this occasion is still commemorated since time immemorial as a token of acknowledgement of the Gods and their continuous struggle to make earth and life on it an opportunity of a lifetime. Of the four locations where the Kumbha Mela is celebrated, at Haridwar and Allahabad, they are held once in every 12 years on the banks of the Ganges and at the confluence of the Ganga Yamuna and now extinct and invisible Saraswati in Prayag, respectively and the dates are ascertained according to the zodiac alignments of the planet Jupiter and the Sun with planet earth.
Allahabad Kumbh Mela or Prayagraj Kumbh Mela is a fair which is held every 12 years in Prayag and pilgrims from various parts of the world visit it. It takes place in Allahabad (Know officially known as Prayagraj) since the ancient times and even finds its mention in the Puranas. The next Allahabad or Prayagraj Kumbh Mela will be held in 2025.
The Haridwar Kumbh Mela like all the other 3 Kumbh Melas is held every 12 years. The exact date gets determined by Hindu astrology. Another mela, known as Ardh Kumbh Mela is held every six years from the completion of the Kumbh Mela.
Ujjain Kumbh Mela is a religious fair which takes place in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh every 12 years. The Mela is held on the banks of Shipra River and is attended by pilgrims, merchants and Akharas. The previous Ujjain Kumbh Mela was in 2016 and the upcoming one is scheduled to be held in 2028.
The Nashik Kumbh Mela is a renowned Hindu mela celebrated with great grandeur once every 12 years in Maharashtra's Nashik district. It is amongst one of the four Kumbh Melas. Until 1789, this mela used to be held at Trimbak.

PM Modi's mantra for party workers for 2019 polls- 'Mera Booth Sabse Mazboot'
NMTV September 14, 2018
The wind is blowing in the Bharatiya Janata Party's ( BJP) favour and opposition parties are having to hold on to each other to withstand its force, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday while encouraging party workers to follow the mantra of 'Mera Booth Sabse Mazboot' (My polling booth strongest) to ensure victory in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
Addressing party workers of five Lok Sabha constituencies via the NaMo app, Prime Minister Modi said the BJP's biggest strength is its party workers. Their hard work has ensured the party's historic success and progress in a short span of four years, he added.
He attributed the party's success to its workers and their grip over their respective polling booths. "Mera Booth Sabse Mazboot (my polling booth, strongest)…this is the only mantra and this is our strength," he said in a video interaction.
Replying to a question on opposition parties stitching an alliance for the 2019 polls, PM Modi said he is confident that the BJP will win the 2019 elections. "The wind is blowing in favour of the BJP, even stronger than what it was in 2014. That's why opposition parties are holding on to each other's hands to save themselves from being blown away."
The prime minister also urged party workers to continuously interact with voters of their respective constituencies and ensure that at least 20 families and youth are working with the party in every polling booth.
He was addressing workers from five constituencies — Jaipur (Rural), Nawada, Ghaziabad, Hazaribagh, Arunachal West — in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand and Arunachal Pradesh.
PM Modi, who was nominated the BJP's prime ministerial candidate this day in 2013, said only in the BJP can an ordinary party worker go on to become its leader. He also asserted that someone else can also take his place tomorrow.
PM Modi lashed out at the Congress, calling it a one family party. He went on to say he felt pity for the dedicated party workers of the Congress. "Many capable and committed workers of the Congress were sacrificed for interests of one family," he said.
The opposition is resorting to lies in its campaign but today people in the country are awake while opposition is not ready to come out of its slumber, the prime minister said.

Q: How do I read the digital signature information from a signed .Net assembly? I am writing an assembly information application to be used in our software build process and am trying to read the digital signature information from a signed .Net assembly.
I want to do in my C# code what Windows Explorer can do by right-clicking a signed assembly and selecting the "Digital Signatures" tab and then clicking the Details button. e.g.

Has anyone got an idea how to do this programmatically in C#? I am currently using the Mono Cecil library to get the rest of the information from the assembly. Your help will be most appreciated.

A: The Mono project provides source code for both signcode and chktrust that you can re-use inside your own application (open source, MIT X11 licensed).
Both use Mono.Security.dll assembly (which works under Windows, not just Linux and OSX) and include a quite complete Authenticode support.

A: From this response :

SignCode (for .Net 1.0 and 1.1) uses Authenticode signing, which as
  far as I'm aware, lacks a .Net Framework managed interface.

Hopefully, it's looks like that some Nuget package implement it:

Q: Xcode 10 simulator freeze up on iPads and iPhone XS Max Upgraded to Xcode yesterday.
Now iPads and iPhone XS Max simulator aren't working.
Simulator blank screen came up, but no Apple logo.
Other simulators are fine, such as iPhone 8, iPhone XR.
My machine is MacBook Pro, 15", mid 2010, 8G RAM, 200G free space in hard drive (SSD).
Xcode 9 was very smooth.


Before the New Year can begin, the darkest day of the year has to happen, at least for everyone in the Northern Hemisphere. This year, the day with the fewest hours of sunlight will fall on Thursday although the amount of sunlight will differ slightly across the timezones.
The winter solstice — solstice meaning "sun stands still" in Latin — in the Northern Hemisphere always happens around Dec. 21 or 22 depending on the exact location of the Earth. But no matter what day it falls on, it always marks the official start of the winter season, as well as the day of the year that sees the least amount of sunlight.
On the same day in the Southern Hemisphere, the opposite happens, as the day with the most amount of sunlight occurs because that hemisphere is tilted in the direction of the sun.
These solstices happen because the Earth reaches the point in its orbit where it is most drastically pointed away from the sun. The planet is tilted so that the Northern Hemisphere is pointing in the opposite direction of the sun, meaning the least sunlight is able to reach it. This is why the polar North gets zero energy from the sun on the day of the winter solstice, according to NASA.
In New York City on Thursday there will only be nine hours and 15 minutes of daylight, the rest of the time will either be filled with night or various classifications of twilight. But the good news is that after Thursday, the amount of daylight happening each day will slowly start to increase again as the Earth begins to tilt back the other way.
To find exactly how short a period of time the daylight will last on Thursday in different cities across the country check TimeandDate.com.
The solstice is celebrated in different ways all around the world but one of the most popular and well known is the celebration at Stonehenge in England. There the mysterious and ancient monument made of massive stones and is perfectly aligned so that it is in sight-line with the sunset on the day of the winter solstice. The site was likely originally a spot for worshiping the solstices, according to English Heritage.

Evaluating Factors Leading to Pedestrian Hit-and-Run Car Accidents in Connecticut
March 25, 2019 August 26, 2015
Hit-and-run car accidents are likely to have serious consequences for victims, as the fleeing driver does not get medical help for those who are harmed. Car accidents with hit-and-run drivers can also make it more difficult for collision victims to be compensated for crash losses, because the victim will not be able to get money from the driver who hit him unless that driver is found. Law enforcement officers will investigate fatal hit and runs to try to identify the driver responsible for causing the accident. If the driver is not found, crash victims or their surviving families can seek compensation from uninsured motorist coverage with their own insurer in many cases.
While all hit-and-runs are dangerous, some of the most high-risk hit-and-run car accidents are pedestrian accidents. When a pedestrian is left unaided after being struck by a vehicle, the delays in getting help for serious medical injuries can be fatal. The pedestrian may also be in a dangerous location and may be vulnerable to getting run over by other vehicles and suffering further harm.
Understanding Risks of Pedestrian Hit-and-run Accidents
A paper from the Safe Transportation Research & Education Center at UC Berkley assesses some of the factors likely to increase the chances of a hit-and-run. Characteristics of the fleeing driver played a role in the likelihood of a hit-and-run. When a pedestrian was the victim, the characteristics of the pedestrian also impacted the likelihood a driver would leave the scene after causing an accident.
Nighttime was the time with the majority of hit-and-runs. Crash statistics show 35.3 percent of hit-and-run crashes which caused the death of pedestrians occurred between midnight and 4:00 AM. Deadly pedestrian crashes involving hit-and-run drivers were also more likely to happen on Saturday and Sunday (22.7 percent of deadly pedestrian hit-and-run collisions happened on weekends). While nighttime was the highest risk time, most hit-and-run crashes resulting in pedestrian deaths actually happened when there was some light on the road. This could mean nighttime with street lights, or dawn, or dusk.
Male drivers were more likely than female drivers to be involved in hit-and-run collisions. People with vehicles five or more years old also had a higher rate of hit-and-run collisions than driver of newer vehicles, and many people who fled crash scenes had prior violations, had a suspended license, or had previously had a suspended license. A BAC above the legal blood-alcohol concentration limit was also likely to increase the chances of a hit-and-run.
Drivers were less likely to flee the scene of a crash after striking certain pedestrians. Less than 13 percent of motorists left the scene of a hit-and-run collision when the victim was 66 or older, or was under 11.
Understanding the risks of hit and runs is important to saving lives, and especially pedestrian lives. A total of 18.1 percent of fatal pedestrian accidents between 1998 and 2007 involved hit-and-run drivers.
