Most people don't know this, but Central Point got its name from its location, which is almost in the center of the Rogue Valley. Prior to being called the Rogue Valley, it was known as Bear Creek Valley. Old Central Point had several houses, a store, a feed store, a livery barn, a saloon, a school house, a blacksmith shop, and a wagon shop. Keeping with the old wild west spirit, Central Point hosts the Wild Rogue Pro Rodeo at the fairgrounds each year. Great fun for kids and adults alike.
Central Point's present claim to fame is that it is home to the world's oldest and largest hearing dog facility, Dogs For The Deaf, which was established in 1977. They teach dogs how to respond to normal household sounds. Many of these dogs are rescued from animal shelters. People with a variety of disabilities and challenges including: hearing loss, autism, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, panic/anxiety attacks, depression, stroke, and chronic arthritis benefit from this wonderful organization.
Established in 1935, this award winning creamery is internationally known. If you love cheese, you got to stop by here !!! Wow, the list of awards they have won is amazing.
Located at 2002 Scenic Avenue in Central Point, you can find many rocks, gems and minerals on display. They feature the exquisite marksmanship of Rogue River Indian arrowheads as well as the other artifacts that reflect the life of these proud warriors. Oregon is know as "The Rock Hounds Paradise". Ask them about their classes and field trips… great activity for kids.
The Fairgrounds is home of our County Fair each year featuring rides, booths, games, exhibits, and 4-H shows and animal auctions. Also located on the fairgrounds is the Lithia Amphitheater, which hosts many great outdoor concerts.

He showed no parents at 26 when he was married.
Lambert Van Valckenburch was baptized Apr 15, 1614 in Millen. Sponers were Michiel Scepers and Elizabeth Baesten.
MARRIAGE: Lambert Van Valkenburg of Valkenburg on the Guele River, seven miles east of Maaestrict, Limburg Province of the Netherlands, obtained a marriage licence in 1642 and married Annetje Jacobs. This Licence, as furnished and translated by the "Centraul Bureau voor Genealogie" of The Hague, The Netherlands, reads as follows:
"Appeared (before the marriage council of Amsterdam) as before (on the 4th of Jan 1642) Lambert Van Valckenburgh, from Millen, 26 yrs old, having no parents (anymore) living on the Boomstraat, and Annetie Jacobs, from Tonningen (Schleswig Holstein) living as before, having no parents, 20 yrs old, requesting to have their three Sundays' banns proclaimed, in order to have their marriage soleminized and celebrated, insofar no legal impediments occur. And after their having declared to be free persons and (not) related to each other in blood, which would prevent a Christian marriage, their banns have been granted.
: Lambert bought a house and 25 morgens (50 acres of land on 29 Jul 1644, from Cornelis Jacobsen Van Vreelandt on the west side of the Bowery from Canal to Broome Streets. Later, on 16 Feb 1647 he received a grant from the Dutch West India Company to a lot south of the fort, next to Jan Evertsen.
From the Van Valkenburgh Book:
Lambert Jochemse Van Valkenburg of Valkenburg on the Guele River, seven miles east of Maaestrict, Limburg Province of the Netherlands, obtained a marriage license in 1642 and married Annetje Jacobs. This license, as furnished and translated by "The Centraul Bureau voor Genealogie" of The Hague, The Netherlands, reads as follows:
"Appeared (before the marriage council of Amsterdam) as before (on the 4th of January, 1642) Lambert Van Valckenburgh, from Millen, 26 years old, having no parents (anymore) living on the Boomstraat, and Annatje Jacobs, from Tonningen (Schleswig Holstein) living as before, having no parents, 20 years old, requesting to have their three Sundaysâ€(tm) banns procalimed, in order to have their marriage solemnized and celebrated, insofar no legal impediments occur. And after their having declared to be free persons and (not) related to each other in blood, which would prevent a Christian marriage, their banns have been granted."
This translation of the banns of marriage for the common ancestor of all the Van Valkenburgs in America was frunished to The National Association of the Van Valkenburg Family in America by Dr. Kenneth L. Marsi of Long Beach, California, who obtained it directly from The Netherlands.
It is recorded that Lambert bought a house and 25 morgens (50 acres) of land on July 29, 1644, from Cornelis Jacobsen Van Vreelandt on the west side of the Bowery from Canal to Broome Streets. Later, on February 16, 1647 he received a grant from the Dutch West India Company to a lot south of the fort, next to Jan Evertsen. This is shown on the Tyler map of New York City and is recorded in the Dutch records in the City Clerkâ€(tm)s office in New York City. Family legend indicates that Lambert was a minor official at the fort.
On May 15, 1649, Peter Stuyvesant granted Lambert 50 acres of land embracing nine city blocks on the west side of Lexington Avenue from 29th to 35th Streets extending west across Park and Madison Avenues beyond 5th Avenue from 31st to 33rd Streets including the site of the Empire State Building. Soon Lambert would be moving to Beverwyck (Albany), NY so he sold this property to Claes Martensen Van Rosenvelt, ancestor of both Teddy and Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

From The Washington Ancestry and Records of the McClain, Johnson and Forty Other Colonial American Families, prepared for Edward Lee McClain by Charles Arthur Hoppin. Greenfield, Ohio - Privately Printed 1932
LAMBERT JOCHEMSE VAN VALCKENBURCH (Valckenburgh, Valkenberg, Valckenborch), born at Valkenburg in Dutch Limburg, on the Geule River, seven miles east of Maestrict, in Holland, appears first of record in America, July 29, 1644, when he purchased of Jan Jacobsen, a house and plantation on the island of Manhattan, with twenty-five morgens of land adjoining. [Register of the Provincial Secretary of New Netherland, II, 121.] (Evjen's Scandinawan Immigrants in New York (page 406) erroneously places Lambert as a German from Falkenburg in Germany, having been misled by the similarity of place names). The grantor was Jan Jacobsen Stille van Vreelandt who died or left New Amsterdam soon after this sale.
Many years later the land became a part of the farm of Colonel Nicholas Bayard who died in 1707 -- This land is on the west side of the present Bowery from Canal Street to Broome Street. There is no record of the disposal of these twenty-five morgens (fifty acres) of land and the house of Lambert van Valckenburch. It is stated in The Iconography of Manhattan Island (VI,72) that he "may have surrendered this farm to the [West India] Company when he acquired the tract opposite to Kip's Bay plantation," later known as the Samler farm.
This latter property was of twenty-four morgens, granted by Director General Peter Stuyvesant to Lambert van Valckenburch, on May 15, 1649 -- It embraced what are now nine city blocks on the west side of Lexington Avenue from Twenty-Ninth to Thirty-Fifth Streets, and extended, westward, across what are now Park and Madison Avenues beyond Fifth Avenue from Thirty-First to Thirty-Third Street, and included the corner of the present Thirty-Third Street and Fifth Avenue, on which stood, until 1929 the southeastern part of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, and wherein 1931 was erected the Empire State Building, then the highest building in the world.
The confirmation of title to this property issued in 1668 [Libci- Patents, III, 43, Albany] by Richard Nicolls, Governor of the Province of New York, refers to the ground-brief from Stuyvesant to Lambert van Valckenburgh, dated May 15, 1649, covering 48 acres (24 morgens), and recites that the land was conveyed to Claes Martensen. This later owner is identified in the Iconography of Manhattan Island (VI,138), viz.:
Claes Martensen van Rosenvelt, the ancestor of the Roosevelt family, occupied the farm originally granted to Lambert van Valckenburgh, at least as early as 1635. Probably he sold his farm to Claes Martensen when he went north [1652]. Dingman Versteeg identified Martensen as Nicolas Martens, mentioned in a court record as early as August 26) 1638. He is said to have been the direct ancestor of Theodore Roosevelt who was born less than a half-mile distant.
The surname of Roosevelt was adopted by the children of Nicolas Martensen, in place of Nicolsen and Martensen, because Roosevelt was the name of the place in Holland from which their father had come to America.
On January 25, 164.4, a declaration of Olaf Stevensen van Cortland and Gysbert Opdyck refers to a statement of Lambert van Valckenburch respecting property of Peter Livesen deceased. {Register of the Provincial Secretary of New Netherland, II, 95-] Lambert Van Valckenburch seems to have resided upon the fifty-acre farm he purchased of Jan Jacobsen, at least until March 16, 1647, when he was granted, by the Director General of New Netherland, a patent for a lot on the south side of Fort Amsterdam, Manhattan Island.[ Land Papers of the Province of New Netherland, G.G., p. 192.]
Here he may have lived until he removed to Fort Orange about 1652, as his second farm, acquired May 15, 1649, was over two miles northward in a region sparsely settled, not well developed, and far beyond the defensive wall built across the island at Wall Street to protect the village around Fort Amsterdam from Indians and others. The house and garden location close under the southern wall of Fort Amsterdam was of such prominence and interest as to merit further notice.
The fort stood on the southwestern half of the site of the present U.S. customhouse. The distance from the fort to the harbor was much less then than it is now. This land patented to Lambert van Valckenburch was nine rods and one foot long (north and south) by one rod and three feet wide. The northern end of this lot would be about fifty to sixty feet south of the southwestern corner of the U.S. Customhouse; the southern end was directly upon the Strand, the narrow open space between the lot and the harbor. This position gave an unobstructed view, from the lot, over the entire harbor. The grant of the lot was made for the creation thereon of house and garden.
It was a corner lot bounded by open public ways on three sides. This land is outlined as lot No. 1, in Block H of the key to the famous ancient Castello plan of New Amsterdam. This plan depicts a house upon the southern end of the land, exactly in the east-and-west center of the southern end of Manhattan Island. As Lambert van Valckenburch was the first grantee of this land, and, as when he sold it in 1656 to Isaac Gravenraedt (Greveract), his house thereon was sold with the land, It is conceived that he built the house. This lot was one of the only three (all granted in 1647) south of the fort.
The lot next to the west was granted to, and patented by, Jan Evertsen Bout, the interpreter of the language of the Indians, and the other to Sergeant Huybertsen (the Englishman, James Hubbard). Lambert van Valckenburch removed to Fort Orange and Beverwyck (Albany) about four years before he sold this house and land to Gravenraedt in 1656, and, also, seemingly before his farm of forty-eight acres was entered upon by Claes Martensen in 1655 -- Gravenraedt sold the house and lot beside Fort Amsterdam to Pieter Jansen Clott of Mingaquy in New Yarsie March 23, 1670, when the house was described in the deed of sale as "an old Tennement." In 1673 the English commander of New York (New Amsterdam), Captain Colve, confiscated this house and lot, with the two others aforesaid, for military purposes. These houses are depicted in several of the earliest pictures of New Amsterdam.
The site of the original lot would be now a strip 148 1/2 feet long by 19 1/2 feet wide, beginning opposite the southwestern corner of the U.S. Customhouse in State Street, and running southward to near the center of Battery Park. A drawing in The Iconography of Manhattan Island [II, 273,274, 388) outlines the bounds of this land, as well as the boundaries of the farm bought in 1644 of Jan Jacobsen and of the farm secured in 1649 of Director General Stuyvesant.
Lambert Jochemse van Valckenburch of Fort Orange
(Present day Albany, New York)
The earliest record of the presence at Fort Orange (Albany) of Lambert van Valckenburch is dated March 7, 1652, in the proceeding of the court of Rensselaerswyck, when Claes Jansz, from Bockhoven, also recorded as Claes de Braebander, Holland, was summoned to court for having, out of spite against Director Van Slichtenhorst, caused his servant to haul wood for Lambert van Valckenburch, contrary to the ordinances. [Van Rensselaer-Bowier MSS., p. 843.] In the appendix to a letter, dated January 15, 1653, from the directors of the West India Company, at the Chamber at Amsterdam, Holland, to the "High and Mighty Lords, the States General," and containing complaints against the patroon and directors of the colony of Rensselaerswyckin the province of New Netherland occurs the complaint that the patroon and directors, "forbid, even on pain of corporal punishment, any wood to be cut or hauled for those at Fort Orange, and a certain man named Claes Jansen of Boeckhoven was by great favor amerced in a fine of fifty guilders solely because he had carted some firewood for one Lambert van Valckenburg, an inhabitant of the aforesaid Fort." [Transcripts of Documents in the Royal Archives at the Hague and in the Stadhays of the City of Amsterdam, Holland, Documents VII. Documents Relative to the Colonial History of New York, 7,525.]
Lambert himself was summoned on Tuesday, March 31, 1654 (translation):
It is resolved to have Lambert van Valckenburgh summoned to appear in court on account of the things done or committed by him last Wednesday two weeks ago at the house of Gerrit Jansz from Swoll, together with the witnesses who were present. . . .Tuesday, April 28, 1654.. . . . Gerrit Jansz from Swoll being summoned by the court to give testimony to the truth in regard to the dispute which took place at his house between Andries Herpertsen and Lambert van Valcken-borgh at the time of the departure of the Hon. General, the defendant's second default [is entered against him].
The Honorable General seems to have been Slichtenhorst who, after contending against Peter Stuyvesant, was obliged to return to Holland. What occasioned the controversy does not appear. If Lambert was defending Stuyvesant, who had granted to him the land beside Fort Amsterdam in 1647 and the farm of forty-eight acres in 1649) it would not be unique, because Stu/vesant's authority over Fort Orange and the colony of Rensselaerswyck, while not to be challenged successfully, were not always relished by some of the inhabitants there. [Minutes of the Court, of Fort Orange and Rensselaerswyck pp. 131,136.] As "Lammert van Valckenborgh," he witnessed on August 31, 1654, at Fort Orange the declaration of Jan Labatie; five days later his name appears in the text of a declaration by "the honorable William Janse Stoll" (alias Hap) as "Lammert Van Valckenbergh"; and at the end of that declaration, where he "made his mark" as a witness, his name appears, as written by Joannes Dyckman, commissary at Fort Orange, "Lemmert Van den Bergh"; he is also named in the deed of sale of a house by Jan Labatie to Adriaen Janse (Appel) van Leyden, on November 11, 1654, as "Lambert Van Valckenborgh." [Early Records of the City and County of Albany, pp. J, 199, 204, 212, 223.] The translator and editor of the Dutch Van Rensselaer-Bowier Manuscrifts renders the name (pp. 843, 845) "Lambert van Valckenburch," which form may be accepted as the Dutch ancient spelling.
The court of Fort Orange and the village of Beverwyck were erected on April 10, 1652, by the order of Peter Stuyvesant. At the session of this court of August 26, 1652, the minutes read (translation) : "Adriaen Jansz from Leyden, plaintiff, against Lambert van Valckenburgh, defendant, for the sum of fl. 535 in beavers." At the session of October 17, 1656 (translation): "Gossen Gerritsen, plaintiff, against Lambert van Volckenborch, defendant. Owing to nonappearance of the defendant, default is entered against him." At the session of Tuesday, October 20, 1654 (translation): "Lambert van Valckenburgh has requested to have a lot. Postponed until the drawing of lots."
As an officer of the law, serving in a company for the preservation of law and order and in general defense of the community, Lambert testified at the court of Tuesday, February 8, 1656, viz. (translation) :
interrogatories upon which, at the request of Johan de Deckere, commissary and officer here, is to be heard and examined 'Lambert van Valckenburch, sergeant of the burgher company, being summoned by the court to give testimony.
Whether he, the witness, yesterday, a week ago, in the evening, was not molested on the public highway because he, a sergeant, by order of his captain, wanted to take one William Hap to the guard house? Answer, Yes.
Who the aforesaid persons were and how many of them? [Answcr] Declares that he saw but one person, without knowing who he was or being acquainted with him, only, that he heard that it must have been a certain tailor, the brother-in-law of Dirk Bentsingh. Whether he, or they, did not come for him with bare knives, intending to attack him, in order to wrest the said Hap from his hands? [answer] Declares that the aforesaid person did as stated in the question.
Who else were present there, what else happened in connection with the said molestation and how the same ended? [Answer] Declares that of the persons who were present he does not know a single one and that he took the said Hap to the guard house.
At the court of October 17, 1656, a suit was entered by Gossen Gerritsen against Lambert van Valckenborch, defendant, who defaulted by not appearing. {Minutes of the Court of Fort Orange and Beverwyck, 7, 34., 131, 136, 185, 252,292.]
On January 9, 1657, Lambert van Valckenborch brought an action against Hendrick Claessen and Gerrit Willemsen for assault, put over And at the extraordinary session of the court held at Fort Orange, June 7, 1657, by "the magistrates, of this court and the members of the court martial of the burgher guard. . . . Lambert v: Valckenborch, sergeant," is named with the magistrates, as an officer of the court, and testified "that on coming to the guard house he ordered a candle to be lit. Marten, the mason, asked Pieter Jacobsen Bosboom where the candles were? 'l do not know' Bosboom answered. Marten replied 'You stole them,' " whereupon Marten drew his sword and cut Bosboom, etc. [I bid., II, 4.0.]
At the extraordinary session of the court held at Fort Orange, August 8, 1659, were issued the instructions to Lambert van Valckenborgh and Pieter Winnen who were appointed on July 6, 1659, to the rattle watch on condition that they were to receive for the term of one year 1,100 guilders in seawan and 100 guilders in beavers. They served from 9.00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m., "giving notice of their presence in all the streets of the village of Beverwyck by sounding their rattle and calling [out the hour] and this every hour of the night," and also instructed as
to dealing with fires and thieves, and were not to be held accountable for injuries they might inflict upon any person who resisted arrest. [Ibid., II, 209.]
At Fort Orange, on July 28, 1658, Lambert appointed as his attorney the Honorable Govert Loockermans to receive of Jan Dircksen alias de Schreder three and a half beavers due to him for house rent. [Albany County, Mortgages, 1658-60, p. 330.]
September 4., 1657? Mr. Van Hamel, secretary of Rensselaerswyck, sued Lambert van Valckenburgh for loss sustained in the sale of a field of wheat on the farm of Jan Labite which he had purchased at auction, and which had to be resold for nonpayment of purchase money. Judgment for plaintiff with costs and damages of 168 florins, and 30 florins for the brandy and beer consumed at the auction.
On May 27, 1660, Lambert van Valckenburch was. a petitioner praying that Dutch as well, as Indian brokers may be employed to go into the woods to trade with the Indians. The court declared the petition to be of dangerous consequences, and, after hearing complaints from Indians who had been ill treated by Dutch traders, denied the petition. [Fort Orange Records, XVI, Part II, 33, 110; Part III, 169.] At the court of July 13, 1660, he complains against the wife of Evert, the baker, for having in the absence of himself and his wife, entered his house and removed personal property. The court orders the defendant to restore the goods. At the same court Daniel Verveelen secured a judgment against Lambert for twenty guilders in beavers. Govert Loockermans entered a suit against Lambert van Valckenborch on July 2, 1658; Albert Gysbertsen sued him on October 28, l659, for a reason not recorded; and on September 1, 1660, Adriaen van Ilpendam obtained a judgment against him of six florins in beavers, the defendant's wife, appearing, admitted the debt. [Minutes of the Court of Fort Orange and Beverwyck, II, 123-225-277, 295.]
A petition is presented by Lambert van Valckenburch, praying for a small lot on the hill. Answer given by way of apostil that there is no room there and that the space is reserved for a passage way, but if he wishes to have a lot laid out along the street, toward the north, the honorable magistrates will favor him therewith. [Minutes of the Court of Albany, Rensselaerswyck and Schenectady, 1, 170.]
In May, 1671, Lambert van Valckenburgh is mentioned in a contract of sale of a house and two lots, as residing in Albany on the Pleyn, next to the Rev. Jacobus Fabricius, the first duly authorized Lutheran minister in the province. [Notarial Papers, Albany County, I and II, 133.]
The last record noted of Lambert van Valckenburch is that in the minutes of "an Extraordinary Court holden at Albany 6 Augst. 1683," when he subscribed one florin toward the expenses of paying for the maintenance of Domine Godefridus Dellius. He was not living in 1697, and no record appears of the settlement of his estate. His widow, Annatie, died September 17, 1704, at Albany. This statement as to his and her death is given at page 134 of Pearsons' Genealogies of the First Settlers of Albany. They had three children of present record, two baptized at the Dutch Reformed Church inside of Fort Amsterdam, Manhattan, behind the house of their parents:

Natural remedies for shingles are still preferred by many. Varicella-Zoster virus, which is responsible for Chicken Pox as well, is causing shingles. Symptoms of shingles are emerging in adulthood after a significantly latent period. Individuals who are attacked by shingles usually get fever, stomach ache, rashes with itch, blisters, chills and pain. Patients can automatically recover from Shingles within weeks but during the skin disease starting and finishing stage, patients will experience extensive discomfort and desolation. You could be prescribed to have drugs like Zovirax, Prednisone, and Valtrex by your physician in order to make the skin disease heal faster but since taking antiviral drugs and painkillers have side effects, you may opt to look for ways to recover naturally if you will follow the instructions below.
Drink as much as 3 to 4 cups of green tea per day because antiviral properties of the green tea can help you start getting rid of the symptoms.
Homeopathic components such as Arsenicum album can treat the burning sensation associated with shingles. It is recommended to use a dosage of 30c for 3 days, two times daily. Later reduce the strength to 12c to see the further improvement. If you can see the improvement, stop using this. In case of its failure to make the patient improve his or her condition, try Rhus Toxicodendron, Apis Mellifica, or Clematis Erecta. A homeopathic expert can better assist you with this and advise you which option you should use.
Alfalfa, Cayenne, Astragalus root, Dandelion, red clover, and other herbs promote healing of shingles. Aside from healing, you can use these herbs to relieve itch and pain on the rashes but keep in mind that these may have possible side effects if were used with other drugs. So, check for this before you decide to use these herbs.
Some useful oils work better for the natural remedy of shingles. These can bring relief and can heal shingles faster. Use Lemon, Bergamot, and Eucalyptus oils to derive desired results. Put a few drops of these oil essences diluted with Olive oil and massage this on your painful rashes or blisters.
Soothe blisters by dabbing a cotton on hydrogen peroxide and rub it on the affected area. Doing this will prevent blister infections. Consider dabbing a cotton on an organic apple cider vinegar (Test the acidity first on your skin. Start with a teaspoon amount) diluted in water and then, apply this on the painful shingles area.
Shingles will surely make you look ugly which results in lower self-esteem to the point that you don't want to go out of your house. Also, it is a threatening disease to the public. Although people cannot get shingles just by talking, coughing and sneezing with you but you might still infect them if your skin with rashes touches them. So, take care of separating yourself from other people until you are completely free from this skin disease.
Low temperature undoubtedly helps patients get rid of pain associated with shingles. Using cool water can be a good treatment for patients who want to have pain and itch relief. It is strongly recommended for patients to take cool baths or showers on regular intervals. Using natural kitchen ingredients like baking soda or oatmeal will definitely help patients relieve itching. Application of wet compress as an alternative for shower or bath can also help. Vitamin-E oil and Aloe Vera are nutritious for the skin; applying a small amount of these on a warm compress will also help.
In accordance with the guidelines of health authorities, healthy diet can sooth the condition of blisters to a lot of degree. Taking diet such as eating non-processed sugar, vegetables and fruits (canned or natural) can prevent infection further and better than other foods. Citrus Fruits, Bell Peppers, Strawberries, Brussels sprouts, Tomatoes, and Guava are perfect examples of Vitamin-C enriched foods. Hazelnuts, Almonds, Papayas, Avocados, leafy greens such as Spinach, Kale, Swiss Chard, Broccoli, etc are examples of Vitamin-E enriched foods. All of those, helps individuals to get comfort from the disgusting blisters caused by shingles. As long as those are taken on a regular basis, the severity of shingles will become less. Taking proper diet is the best way to prevent and heal shingles. These foods can also help patients keep their body fit and healthy.
It will be okay if patients will take supplements along with healthy diets according to the Health-Guidance. An individual can take 1,000 mg per day of Vitamin-C which can easily dissolve in water. Vitamin-E supplements can be received before meals in accordance with the supplement's instructions. These supplements can help the patient recover from pain related to shingles. Also, Vitamin B-12 can be taken by injections or vaccines in order to relieve the pain. Consult with a physician first so you will know if you can take these supplements and vaccines.
Though you are taking natural remedies, you should consult with your physician about what you are going to do with the natural treatment. Taking casual approach to treat shingles may cause severe damage to your health. Natural remedy does not mean that it is 100% safe. Also, if the natural remedy fails to help you recover completely, you should not waste your time and you should contact a physician as early as possible. The physician or doctor will decide if you need special treatment or you can still continue with the natural treatment. Your physician can prescribe antiviral drugs which can accelerate the process of healing and lessen complications. Anticonvulsant drugs could be prescribed as well. Topical numbing agents, gabapentin, antidepressants, etc can be included within the prescription. Your physician will also suggest you if you should continue natural treatment along with these drugs.
The main objective of the treatment is to heal from shingles. You can opt for any kind of sophisticated treatments as long as you can benefit from these. However, before starting with natural remedies for shingles, it is recommended to consult with your trusted physician.

Think design and Polish politics and the chances are the first image that will spring to mind is the now world-famous 'Solidarność' logo created in 1980; a picture designed spontaneously by Jerzy Janiszewski, who had links to the Polish Poster School, in order to support the strikers at the Gdańsk shipyard.
Following years of crushing artistic development under Communism, the 'Solidarność' design marked the turning point in Polish politics, inspired by the eclectic handwritten slogans on the walls of Gdańsk and united workers – the sign itself, mimicking a marching group of individuals with a Polish flag, quickly seeped into the Polish political consciousness, erupting across the pages of the bulletin issued during the strike and becoming the official logo of the Independent Self-Governing Trade Union 'Solidarity'. Its bubbling, child-like writing also formed a typeface, Solidaryca, and inspired all fighting for Polish freedom: when the first semi-free elections were held in Poland in 1989, it was the 'Solidarność' logo which was emblazoned as a backdrop to the famed poster designed by Tomasz Sarnecki, depicting a stalking figure of Gary Cooper from the 1952 classic film High Noon, also wearing a 'Solidarność' pin.
But there are new Polish designers addressing political developments of the recent age, and the semi-handmade nature of 'Solidarność' has transformed into a starker, more abrupt take on current affairs. Simplicity is always central to political messages, but where 'Solidarność' found success in an unavoidable, emboldened clout, the latest Polish posters addressing politics have often sought less obtrusive means of demonstration.
After all, theirs is not a protest against an opposing and external force, but against the current Polish government.
It was a one-word grey poster which first caught the eyes of international media. Produced by Luka Rayski for Demokracja Ilustrowna, an organisation which invited illustrators to create any work inspired by the question 'What is Democracy?', the poster depicts the word 'Konstytucja' ('Constitution') against a dull background. But the word has been sliced – butchered – into separate segments, with the Polish national colours of red and while highlighting the letters 'ty' ('you') and 'ja' ('me').
A flurry of copies have been seen at almost every protest against the recent conservative reforms implemented by the government, including at the backlash that followed attempts to control the judiciary. Gazeta Wyborcza printed it on its back-cover, NGOs helped spread it to tram, bus and subway screens, and downloads have gone into the thousands, with its simple message applicable to all – young or old – who oppose governmental action.
In an interview with ArtSlant, Rayski said his first introduction to Polish politics came as the Soviet Union collapsed. Claiming he didn't have any specific political beliefs, he argued his poster was a ubiquitous symbol – and thus his own commentary on a deteriorating political situation.
The simplicity of the 'Konstytucja' message is one which has featured on other recent Polish posters too, some of which relate to more specific issues. Whilst Rayski's edition served a general purpose, Dawid Czajkowski, founder of Posters Involved, added to his lively takes on Polish political issues with a poster of the word 'Konstytucja' across an unravelling reel of toilet paper, with the last syllable, 'ja', hanging precariously from the edge. The poster was used in recent student protests against the stifling education reforms administered by Minister of Science and Higher Education Jarosław Gowin, with some of Czajkowski's other works – including one depicting the number '2.0', the unofficial name for the education reforms, illustrated as a bomb – also taken to support student activists.
Czajkowski also addresses international issues in his posters, but it is his take on matters of Polish national interest which are the most heartfelt: his depiction of the Warsaw Uprising 'Kotwica' symbol submerged in the red half of the Polish flag represented the lack of help Soviet troops gave Poles during the Uprising, preferring to see the country fall to allow it to drown in its own blood for a further 50 years.
Then there is his depiction of a fishing rod cast into the depths of the Polish flag.
He paused, and then, showing me a new artistic work, carefully impressed his views another Polish affair – but this time with direct implications on Polish design: the alleged censorship of ideological posters, some touching on efforts by the Polish government to control the judiciary, by Andrzej Błażejczyk at an exhibition in Szczecin's modernist Philharmonic building.
"There are no direct government actions towards posters. But the impact and fear of State institutions against the consequences of supporting free artistic thought exists.
Czajkowski's worry that we may now be entering a time of asphyxiation for Polish creativity was palpable. His poster on the Błażejczyk affair depicted the façade of the Philharmonic – but instead of the bold, jutting architecture, which won first prize in the Eurobuild Awards 2014 contest as Architectural Design of the Year, the cutting edges of the roof had transformed into the jaws of a paper shredder.
It is this powerful community resilience against attacks on freedom which is regurgitated time and time again on the papers of Polish designers. When the government tried to impose new measures which would crack down on abortion, the ensuing national women's strike on 'Black Monday' and protests were met with the backdrop of a simplistic design by Ola Jasionowska: the Strajk Kobiet poster. With a black background, shadowed by the disembodied silhouette of a woman's head in white, the poster has become the go-to symbol for any fight for women's rights. Speaking to Wysokie Obcasy, Jasionowska explained she created the poster quickly after seeing a friend was involved in protests, referring to her work as a use of her skillset to support efforts against the imminent laws. But she also noted how far her poster had travelled – not merely with different Polish designs, with one depicting a Bowie-like lightning bolt across the face of the woman – but also abroad. An edition in Paraguay has edited the woman's hair to depict a braid, whilst the version in United States showcases afro hair. This is an adaptable message – but one of overwhelming support for all women. The English version proclaims: 'solidarity is our weapon'.
Like Jasionowska and Czajkowski, it is this spontaneous camaraderie which comes across most in Polish poster art – though some creative action is not without serious condemnation. When LGBT+ activists attended the first-ever Pride parade in Częstochowa, some carried with them a flag designed by Angela Getler depicting the Polish white eagle on a rainbow background. But soon there were claims that this design had broken the law – any work profaning Polish national symbols is illegal, as Poland's Minister for Interior Affairs Joachim Brudziński decried on Twitter, retweeting photographs of the flag and promising the police and prosecutor's office would investigate.
And yet, this prompted a new wave of creativity, with Facebook profile picture filters displaying a Polish eagle in rainbow colours, with the motto 'rainbows do not insult', and even t-shirts of the design produced.
What we are seeing here is a refusal, however strained, to allow creative action to perish.
Janiszewski, designer of the Solidarność logo – later the sign of the NSZZ Solidarność trade union – agreed. He has recently created a new design with the Solidaryca typeface, depicting the words '3xNie' – a call to President Andrzej Duda to veto three laws on Polish judicial reform, in a measure Janiszewski deems "the last bastion in defence of our freedom". But his true emblem for a free Poland remains the Solidarność logo, which he suggested was the epitome of the struggle for Polish creative freedom.
"In today's Poland, NSZZ cannot take care of the integrity, inviolability of the graphic form of the Solidarność sign, thereby devaluing its historical value – and the sympathy and political friendship of NSZZ together with the ruling party still deepens it. There are cases of prohibition, denunciation, repression for using the sign during peaceful demonstrations for basic democratic rights, in defense of the right to abortion, triple power, the Constitution, etc.

The epinephrine auto-injector is used to treat life-threatening allergic emergencies, including anaphylaxis in people who are at risk for, or have a history of serious allergic emergencies. Use of an epinephrine auto-injector must be followed by emergency medical care.
What are some of the allergic reactions that can cause anaphylaxis and require the use of an epinephrine auto-injector?
Allergic reactions can be caused by stinging and biting insects, allergy injections, food, medicines, exercise, or other unknown causes. These reactions, also called anaphylaxis or allergic emergencies, can be life-threatening and can happen within minutes.
What are some of the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis?
*These are just some of the symptoms of anaphylaxis. Please check the Patient Information Leaflet or ask your healthcare provider for all of the symptoms.
If anaphylaxis is a risk, should my child keep an Impax epinephrine auto-injector at school?
Yes, your child, as well as appropriate school personnel (such as a nurse), should have access to an epinephrine auto-injector while at school.
Does the Impax epinephrine auto injector deliver the same medicine as other epinephrine auto-injectors?
Yes. All epinephrine auto-injectors use the same medicine, called epinephrine. It's important to note that some devices may have unique features. It is essential that you become familiar with the features of your device so you are prepared in an emergency. Please consult your healthcare provider to become familiar with how to inject the epinephrine auto-injector.
Can I travel with my Impax epinephrine auto-injector?
It's recommended that you always keep your epinephrine auto-injector with you. If you will be traveling by plane, it's suggested that you carry the epinephrine auto-injector in the original packaging and bring a letter from your physician that confirms your need to carry the auto-injector.
After I used my Impax epinephrine auto-injector, I still see medicine remaining in my Impax-epinephrine auto-injector. Did I get my dose?
It is normal for some of the medicine to remain in the auto-injector after the dose is injected. The correct dose has been administered if you see the needle sticking out of the red tip. The remaining liquid that is left after this fixed dose cannot be further administered.
What should I do after I have received my dose?
The Impax epinephrine auto-injector is for immediate self (or caregiver) administration and does not take the place of emergency medical care. You should get emergency medical help right away after using the epinephrine auto-injector.
Does my Impax epinephrine auto-injector expire?

Q: Serial monitor displaying random characters arduino I'm trying to set up an L298n to be able to control the speed of two DC motors (VIA BLUETOOTH), using an arduino UNO.
I created an MIT app inventor app and am trying to use the slider function on the app to control the motor speed. But when I open the serial monitor to see what is coming in from the HC05 that I have connected to the RX and TX pins on the arduino as well as the 5v and GND some gibberish comes up. I have attached an image of what the serial monitor produces and my MIT app inventor blocks. I have read that alot of people get this issue via baud rate but mine has already been changed to 34800.
Any help is greatly appreciated in solving this issue.
Here's the code:
int enA = 6;
int enB = 3;
int in1 = 4;
int in2 = 9;
int in3 = 8;
int in4 = 2;
int val2;

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(38400);
    pinMode(enA, OUTPUT);
    pinMode(enB, OUTPUT);
    pinMode(in1, OUTPUT);
    pinMode(in2, OUTPUT);
    pinMode(in3, OUTPUT);
    pinMode(in4, OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite (in1, HIGH);
    digitalWrite (in2, LOW);
    digitalWrite (in3, HIGH);
    digitalWrite (in4, LOW);
}

void loop() {

    if (Serial.available() >= 0 ) {
        unsigned int a = Serial.read();
        unsigned int b = Serial.read();
        unsigned int val = (b * 256) + a;
        Serial.println(val);

        if (val >= 0 && val <= 255) {
            analogWrite(enA, val);
        }

        if (val >= 1000 && val <= 1255) {
            val2 = val - 1000;
            analogWrite(enB, val2);
        }
    }
}

A: You are trying to read the serial buffer even when there are no bytes to read. See your if statement.
if (Serial.available() >= 0 ) {

Serial.available() returns a number of bytes available in the buffer (see Arduino documentation). When Serial.available() == 0, there is nothing to read.
You want to call Serial.read() only when there is something in the buffer. Change the if statement to this:
if (Serial.available() > 0 ) {

Or, simply
if (Serial.available()) {

« Scheduled Execution - UPDATED | Main | Lawyer Confronts Clients' Sentences »
More on the CCA Ruling in Stephen Staley's Case
John Moritz has, "Inmate loses bid to halt meds," in today's Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
A Fort Worth man on Death Row on Wednesday lost his bid to overturn a court order forcing him to take medication to make him mentally fit to be executed.
The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals told Steven Kenneth Staley in a unanimous ruling that it would not consider overturning state District Judge Wayne Salvant's ruling ordering Staley to take drugs for schizophrenia.
But the court's action does not immediately set the stage for Staley to be executed for his role in the shooting death of Robert Reed, who was held hostage after a robbery attempt at a Fort Worth Steak and Ale on Oct. 14, 1989.
"We have to go back and start the process all over," said Chuck Mallin, the Tarrant County assistant district attorney who heads the office's appellate division.
"We'll have to get a new competency hearing, and Mr. Reed's family will have to continue to suffer."
Staley's lawyer, Jack Strickland of Fort Worth, said he intends to file an appeal in federal court on whether condemned inmates can be forcibly medicated to get around the Supreme Court's ban on executing the mentally ill.
"There's very little doubt that this guy is flat insane," Strickland said.
Twice in the past 2 1/2 years, courts have intervened to stop Staley's execution. Each time, the move met with protests from Reed's family. Tarrant County prosecutors contend that Staley was sane at the time of the slaying and that he is capable of understanding why he has been sentenced to die.
As noted in the earlier post, the opinion by Judge Barbara Hervey is here. Earlier coverage of the Staley case is here, here, and here.

The neighborhood was darkening as dusk crept its soft fingers into the alleys and driveways. My car followed its way to my last and final stop of the day. Pausing to grab some java at a corner cafe, I sat for a few minutes pondering what the day had been. I sat there in the tiny shop with 5 other souls, soft jazz playing in the background. All lone islands in this sea of humanity called a city, we were all there to stop for a moment. Some were working on homework, others talking with a friend, or, like me, just sitting and breathing. Suddenly, the funniest thing happened. This spider began descending from the ceiling right in front of the two who were working on homework. Down, down, down it went, as if it were a stunt guy repelling into a giant's world. About 4 of us saw it happening at first – and we all kinda chuckled and pointed it out to the studying pair, who also watched its descent towards them. For a brief moment, total strangers were linked by this spider – as if it's web had some magical powers to bond us together, as well as cascade from the ceiling. We talked about the spider, and then watched it climb back up its tiny rope and disappear into the cafe colors. For a moment – one tiny creature broke through the barriers we as humans like to put up – one tiny powerful, courageous creature broke our walls and brought us together as a common sea of humanity – all with our different skin colors, our different backgrounds, our own baggage; there we were laughing over a spider.
I sat there for the next hour or so, sipping Pepsi, chatting with her on one side, and chatting with an old gentleman on my other side who used to be a rancher. ( He reminded me of an old version of Johnny Cash.) We experienced community together – the 3 of us. Talking about life, the dance, heartache, jobs, and how to keep going when life knocks you down. After about an hour, I got what I was looking for…and more. I said goodbye to my new friends, and walked out of the place, the country music drifting into the night sky. As I got into my car, I knew once again, I had just experienced church for the umpteenth-time that day. I had once again seen that church is not a place per-say; it's an experience – it's a way of life…a way of looking at the world. It's a way of being present for the moments of the divine in any place, at any time and with anyone. You can experience it in a sanctuary, a coffee shop, a cathedral, or a bar. Like a t-shirt once said: "Don't just go to church – BE the Church." It's the practice of being present for the God-encounters at every miniscule moment.
Wow, I love this. It brought a tear to my eye reading and reliving this experience. So even now as I sit at Starbucks reading this I'm experiencing that connection, that church, with you.
Wow! What a great concept – over the miles! You gave me goosebumps. Can't wait to see you in a couple days!!

Трактат о налогах и сборах (, 1662) — произведение английского экономиста Уильяма Петти.

Содержание
Книга включает Предисловие и 15 глав:
 О различных видах государственных расходов;
 О причинах, которые увеличивают и делают более тягостными различные виды государственных расходов;
 Каким образом можно ослабить причины недовольства налогоплательщиков;
 О разных способах взимания налогов, в первую очередь путём выделения из всей территории соответственной части для государственных надобностей в виде коронных земель, во-вторых же, путём обложения, или поземельного налога;
 О проценте;
 О таможенных пошлинах и вольных гаванях;
 О подушном налоге;
 О лотереях;
 О добровольных взносах;
 О наказаниях;
 О монополиях и должностях;
 О десятине;
 О различных менее значительных способах взимания денег;
 О повышении и снижении достоинства монет и об их порче;
 Об акцизе.

Идеи
Для ученого свойственно перенесение анализа образования богатства в сферу производства. Крылатым стало его высказывание из этой книги: «Труд есть отец и активнейший принцип богатства, а земля его мать». У. Петти анализировал различия между стоимостью, которую он называет «естественной ценой», и рыночной ценой — в его терминологии «политической ценой». По мнению английского ученого, одинаковое количество труда, затраченного на производство одного бушеля хлеба и одной унции серебра, лежат в основе сопоставления их стоимостей.

How Much Can Trademark Infringement Cost You?
There are obvious aspects to a trademark infringement case that can damage a company — the loss of a brand, accompanying loss of sales, delays in getting your product back out into the marketplace, and the oftentimes significant cost of a re-brand. However, there are other satellite issues that can arise, and they can take the price of getting it wrong to dizzy new heights. Factors such as negative publicity in a social media world and legal fees can carry a heavy price tag.
In May of this year, a notable trademark infringement case in Ireland underlined that point. Nualtra Ltd, a nutritional supplement company based in the Irish Midlands city of Limerick, launched a nutritional supplement drink called NUTRIPLEN and sought an EU trademark registration for such. Two other associated EU registrations were sought for NUTRIPLEN SMOOTHIE and NUTRIPLEN PROTEIN. All three applications are now invalid.
These attempted registrations were challenged by Nutrimedical BV, owners of an existing EU registration NUTRIPLETE (licensed and assigned to Aymes International in the UK) also a nutritional supplement drink but one marketed directly to medical professionals rather than the general public. The goods and services description includes the phrase "the aforesaid goods for use under medical supervision". At the onset of proceedings, Nualtra Ltd selected a new name of ALTRAPLEN and rebranded their products including ALTRAPLEN COMPACT and ALTRAPLEN PROTEIN.
The discovery hearing in May 2016 brought to light some unsettling issues on the part of one of the plaintiffs prompting Mr. Justice Max Barrett in delivering his judgment to write "Our courts may be temples of truth, but few within them are saints". These issues were settled with a payment to Nualtra Ltd of €101,000 and payment of associated legal costs. A July 2016 application to remove the remaining matters from the commercial lists was refused by Mr Justice Brian J. McGovern.
The final judgment on the infringement matters was delivered by Mr. Justice Twomey on 2nd May 2017. He noted that no actual losses had been demonstrated by the plaintiffs. Instead, they relied on evidence providing a valuation of the license fee that would have been imposed if Nualtra Ltd were to have obtained a license to use the trademark NUTRIPLETE for the time period. The figure supplied was in the order of €260,000. Nualtra Ltd supplied evidence to show that no profits had been acquired from the use of the NUTRIPLEN mark during the period and judgment was delivered that €35,000 was an appropriate sum to award to the plaintiffs.
However, the issue of the legal fees involved in the various actions brought the dangers of infringement into sharp relief. In his judgment, Mr. Justice Twomey wrote, "There does seem to this Court something perverse about the fact that a damages claim by the plaintiff for a maximum of €260,000, which has led to an award of €35,000 in damages, could cost over €2 million in legal fees and almost put the defendant company out of business and which could have led to the loss of jobs."
He did mention some hope for trademark owners (and indeed all civil litigants) regarding legal fees in referencing the "Review of Civil Litigation Costs: Final Report" by Lord Justice Jackson in the UK. The review recommends the introduction of providing limitations and caps on legal actions and associated fees to prevent financial issues impeding access to justice or disproportionate fees to an action causing irreparable harm.
While these developments may be some time in the future and have distinctly different time frames and arrangements in different jurisdictions, the discussions around these developments are reason for optimism.
In the interim, with increasing globalization and increasing volumes of trademark registrations creating more trademark issues than before, running comprehensive clearance on your trademark candidates is more important than ever!

Best Whole-Wheat Bakery
L.A. Weekly October 6, 2010
Imagine if your favorite bakery — blissful croissants, perfectly made canelés, crusty boules, an egg-salad sandwich so exactly rendered that it would cause an Old Town riot if it were ever removed from the menu — reappeared, a few blocks down the street, with most of the menu reworked in whole-wheat flours instead of the more traditional white. An alternate-universe bakery, written in and kneaded with whole grains. Which is exactly what happened this spring in Pasadena, when Sumi Chang opened a second outpost of her 15-year-old Euro Pane. Chang meant to close the old bakery, but after regulars threatened a quiet revolution, she decided to keep them both. Now you can find rows of whole-wheat scones and strudels and batards displayed in a case next to a community table made from an 80-year-old pecan tree; another case filled with gluten-free macarons, in brightly colored pastels, made with almond flour; a counter displaying baskets of whole-wheat ficelle like Easter presents. Do not mistake this Euro Pane for a PSA bakery, a good-for-you version of an old favorite: It is instead an ongoing experiment in how much flavor whole grains can reveal, in a loaf of bread, a cinnamon roll. 300 E. Colorado Blvd., Pasadena. (626) 844-8804. —Amy Scattergood

Lore:Stormhold Crystal
< Lore: Artifacts: S(Redirected from Lore:Storm Crystal)
The Storm Crystal
Stormhold Crystal is a magical type of crystal found in the tunnels beneath the Black Marsh city of Stormhold. There are two types of Stormhold Crystals: Filled Crystals[1] and Hollow Crystals. Filled Crystals have many different enchantments, such as healing, magical buffs or teleportation; some crystals can also be used for offensive purposes, killing opponents instantly. Hollow Crystals are used to store evil and corruption. The Storm Crystal is a large crystal which glows with distilled power and has the ability to hold vast amounts of corruption.[2]
The origin of the crystals is a mystery. They were created by the priests of a nearly forgotten religion.[2] Given Stormhold's origins as an Ayleid city,[3] the priests were likely Ayleids, a race known for harnessing Meteoric Glass to create magical crystals.[4] Similar crystals include Welkynd Stones, Varla Stones and Star Teeth.
Some time after the extinction of the Ayleids, the Empire set up a prison in the old ruins beneath Stormhold.[2] In the late Third Era circa 3E 427,[UOL 1] Warden Varus learned of the Storm Crystal and used the prisoners as slave labor, forcing them to dig in the tunnels. Varus made a large profit extracting the Stormhold Crystal, and planned to locate the Storm Crystal and use it to store all the evil in the Empire, titling himself the Slayer of Evil. The prisoners who dug in the tunnels, nicknamed "tunnel rats", kept some of the crystals for themselves, for use in smuggling or exploring the dangerous undead-infested tunnels. Varus overlooked this theft as long as tunnel rats were not greedy.[2]
Over time, prisoners and their overseers began to go mad, fleeing into the tunnels and attacking workers clearing the ruins. Digging in the tunnels caused corruption to infect the workers, which led to madness and lizard-like deformities over time. Varus attempted to cure this by removing evil from one man to place into another using the Hollow Crystals. Varus afflicted far too many, and the prison camp's healer, Helga, was unable to cure all of them. This resulted in the earth itself oozing corruption. Many of the overseers began to show horrific deformities, and prisoners weren't expected to survive long.[2]
Varus, driven insane in his search for the Storm Crystal, continued to open new tunnels and eventually tracked down the Crystal. A prisoner nicknamed the "master tunnel rat", with the help of Helga and several other prisoners, gathered enough equipment from the ruins to defeat the overseers and confront Varus. The two fought for the Storm Crystal, and the prisoner was victorious. Although the Crystal was unable to hold the evil of the Empire, the prisoner was able to use it to clear the prison camp of corruption, letting the inmates go free.[2]

SC nod for bullock cart races welcomed in Maharashtra
Filip to rural breeders, says Deputy CM Ajit Pawar
The ruling Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) leadership hailed the Supreme Court's decision on Thursday allowing Maharashtra to conduct bullock cart races after a gap of nearly four years, with Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar remarking that the decision to lift the ban was an important one for rural Maharashtra.
The apex court was hearing an application filed by the Maharashtra government which sought that the ban on bullock cart races in the State (ongoing since 2017) should be lifted as jallikattu and bullock sports were currently on in States like Tamil Nadu and Karnataka.
"The SC's decision to lift ban on bullock cart races is one of great interest to farmers and livestock breeders. These farmers and bullock cart race organizers have won a victory, the road to which has been long and hard. Our government fought this battle with determination and full strength. I congratulate all leaders and activists involved," Mr. Pawar said, stating that the races, which were an integral part of Maharashtra's traditional fabric, could now resume in the State.
He said bullock cart owners had long considered the ban unjust especially as racecourses and horse-racing had not been affected.
At the same time, the Deputy Chief Minister appealed to all farmers to strictly abide by all the conditions and rules.
State Home Minister Dilip Walse-Patil also welcomed the decision, saying, "This is a matter of joy for all bullock-cart race lovers. However, it is requested that all these races be conducted in strict compliance with the terms and conditions laid down by the State Government.
During the hearing, senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi, appearing for the Maharashtra government, told the SC bench that in 2017, the State had come with amendments to the conduct of bullock cart races.
The amended rules had, in turn, been challenged in the Bombay High Court (in 2018) which had stayed these amendments by which the State wanted to hold bullock cart races. Mr. Rohatgi submitted that similar amendments had been carried out in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka and that when the matter came to the apex court, no bar had been put on the conduct of bullock cart races in those two states and hence Maharashtra ought to be allowed to conduct bullock cart races in accordance with the 2017 rules.
The apex court observed that validity of the amended provisions of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960 and the rules framed by Maharashtra, which provided for bullock cart races in the State, would operate during the pendency of the petitions as the entire matter had been referred to a constitution bench.
The three-judge bench headed by Justice A. M. Khanwilkar noted that no interim relief was granted earlier by the apex court on the petitions challenging the validity of similar State amendments in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka where such races were on.
"The same dispensation must apply to the amended provisions as applicable to the state of Maharashtra, which are similar to the amendments carried out in the other two states," said the bench, also comprising of Justices Dinesh Maheshwari and C.T. Ravikumar.
The opposition BJP, too, welcomed the decision with leader of opposition and former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis remarking that the races were an important traditional sport in rural Maharashtra.

Canada is a great country, one of the hopes of the world. New Democrats are progressive Canadians who believe we can build an even better one—a country that's more prosperous, sustainable, and where no one is left behind.
Canada's NDP has a proud history of fighting for ordinary Canadians and delivering results. Over the last 50 years, New Democrats have helped ensure the introduction of universal medical care, public pensions, and the expansion of Canada's social safety net.
New Democrats are champions for people – not corporations or the ultra-rich. We believe in building a society that is more equal and more just for everybody. We are determined to fight for solutions people urgently need right now. From skyrocketing housing prices to soaring out-of-pocket healthcare costs – Canadians haven't received the help they need.
We believe in this movement because we know that politics is about people – and that when we work to improve the lives of Canadians, we can build a better Canada where everybody feels included, and can follow their dreams.


Crosman SNR357 BB Revolver Shells, .177 cal, 6ct. Pistol.
Things I liked: These are the same as came with my Crosman 357 and work perfect in it.
What others should know: I ordered two sets. You will be glad you did so you can load a bunch at once.
Things I liked: Nothing.. They do not fit my Remington 1875 CO2 Dual Ammo Replica Revolver.
Things I would have changed: These BB Revolver Shells DO NOT FIT the Remington 1875 CO2 Dual Ammo Replica Revolver. They are too large and do not slide into the chamber all the way. The product description claims that they should fit. At this point in time, PA cannot recommend a suitable replacement.
What others should know: The replacement Pellet shells (PY-A-7756) fit and work just fine.
The original product descrption said they were suitable for the Remington 1875. That was changed AFTER my review.
That must be why it says "Crosman SNR 357" everywhere you can look regarding this item. When I need to replace injectors in my Forester I won't take it to a Jeep service department just so I can write a bad review.
These BB Revolver Shells DO NOT FIT my Remington 1875 CO2 Dual Ammo Replica Revolver. Can anyone recommend a suitable replacement?
