Omnium Gatherum - Grey Heavens
Grey Heavens
by Dave "That Metal Guy" Campbell at 06 January 2016, 8:34 PM
OMNIUM GATHERUM is a Melodic Death Metal band based out of Finland. Their debut full-length album was release in 2003. Following the replacement of the original singer with Jukka Pelkonen, shortly thereafter, the band began honing their craft through five more album releases. "Grey Heavens" marks the sixth with Jukka and contains ten tracks. I have always felt that this band was one of Metal's best-kept secrets and I would love for that to change. This is also a band that I feel have improved their sound with each new album release, and that is rare in the industry. "The Pit" leads off the assault. It's a quick paced song with a bold and vigorous entrance and some superb guitar harmonies. The vocals are fierce as they always are and I would content that he is the best in the business at this technique. The chord progressions in the chorus usher in the splendor, and the keyboard solo section and clean vocals tie in the sweet melody and that is precisely what makes this band as special as they are. "Skyline" was the first track that I heard as the band released it a month or so ago. It's a bit more compressed and straightforward in terms of the main riff. The lush guitar parts shine like a beacon among the fierce vocals and the keys pour over a veritable rainbow of texture, layering in pure bliss.
I don't even know to say about "Frontiers" except that it has reduced me to goosebumps. What an absolutely splendorous sound that I am having problems putting into proper words. There is no way this much radiance and awe-inspiring majesty should be able fit into one track. I would rather hear this again than take in the view from the top of Mt. Everest. "Majesty and Silence" is a slower, eight-minute song that seems to wrestle with both darkness and light throughout, where one never really takes over the other. The verses are heavy and mysterious sounding but the harmonic guitar sections are just elegant, and the haunting interludes with piano add to this spookiness. I have to say I am also very much enjoying the brief moments of clean vocals as well. "Rejuvenate" is more straight-at-you with fervor and might but the piano accents keep it rooted in delight. It would be equivalent to a monster being temporarily tamed by the doll of a small child. "Foundation" is another hearty track that combines chugging guitar parts and background keys like the dissolving of sugar into liquid for a sweet sensation. The lead guitar notes sound like wind chimes on your porch that remind you of spending your summer youth in the warm outdoors.
"The Great Liberation" is thick with keyboard and piano melodies that support the barbarous vocals, which threaten to devour your soul. The elements come together in a flurry of orchestration that culminates with a super emotional ending. "Ophidian Sunrise" is a more pensive piece that has a sorrowful zeal to it with the brightness of the keyboards in the background, shimmering over the landscape in a tug and push marriage of the opposing sounds. The key change with the guitar solo is dazzling. "These Grey Heavens" is the shortest track on the album, an instrumental that opens with a pleasing acoustic and piano melody that hints of beauty to come. The main guitar riff comes in deep and thunderous and segues into a second riff that features some lead breaks that hold onto a fading evening light. "Storm Front" is the album closer. The spacy keyboards give way to a fast and furious riff with an undeniable energy and brutal vocals. There is definitely a "stormy" feeling to this song and so the title is aptly labeled. This album is exactly what the perfect follow up to the "Beyond" album should have been. There isn't a band around who hits the extremes on both ends of this Melodic Death Metal genre as deep as OMNIUM GATHERUM, and this album is proof. They meticulously blend elements in stark contrast together that seemingly have no place together and the sheer versatility of their compositional style is beyond impressive. Here is the metal album that will take over the genre.

Vishnu Sahasra Namam Contains 1008 chants. So devotees often find it to difficult chant Vishnusahasranamam on a regular basis due to various reasons. Here we are giving a single chant which shows the same effect of Vishnu Sahasranamam if recited once. Perhaps the chant is taken from the Vishnu Sahasranamam itself.
విష్ణుసహస్ర నామాలు భిస్మాచార్యుల వారిచే ఉపదేసించబడినది. విష్ణుసహస్రనామాలు అందరికీ చదవడం రాదు. ఇలా చదవటం రాని వారు ఈ క్రింది మంత్రం 3 సార్లు చదివితే విష్ణుసహస్ర నామాలు చదివినంత ఫలితం వస్తుంది. విష్ణుసహస్ర నామాలు చదవడానికి మీ దగ్గర సమయం తక్కువ ఉన్నప్పుడు కూడా ఈ మంత్రాన్ని చదువుకుంటే చాలు.

A special court on Wednesday summoned former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, industrialist Kumar Mangalam Birla, former Coal Secretary PC Parakh and three others as accused in a coal scam case.
If convicted, the accused are obligated to be sentenced for a maximum of life detainment.
Responding to this allegation, Manmohan Singh said on Wednesday that he was upset with a Delhi court's decision to issue him summons to appear as an accused in a coal scam case.
"I am sure that reality will win and I will get an opportunity to put forward my case with facts," the former PM said.
"I am upset, however this is a part of life," he said.

How to Enjoy Mechanical Bull Riding Despite the Dangerous Risks?
It takes a lot of guts and grit to ride a mechanical bull because of the various risks that are associated with it. Individuals who are under the influence of liquors are the ones who are most likely to take chances since they develop numbness after drinking a few bottles and don't care what will happen next. Nonetheless, not all who dares to ride a mechanical bull nowadays need to be drunk. In fact, mechanical bull riding has been the center of fun and entertainment in every party and social gathering.
Every individual from different age group will be thrilled with the presence a mechanical bull in a party but before engaging in this stimulating activity, there are several considerations to bear in mind. The activity involves a number of risks which can be very dangerous. It is important for those who want to attempt to ride the bull, to be aware of the safety precautions before taking the dare. For the host, compliance of the safety measures must be strictly implemented to avoid horrible accidents.
What are the Dangers in Mechanical Bull Ride?
Among the outdoor recreation, mechanical bull ride has continuously attracted many individuals because of the dose of adrenaline-rush that it gives them. It works similarly with the original bull riding but this one is less dangerous. The few seconds spent on the top of the can be the cause of unexpected accidents if safety measures are disregarded. The risk of having a bad fall can occur when the movement of the bull becomes out of control. A bad fall can lead to bone injury and head trauma. Those who are not careful can even lose their teeth and this isn't entertaining anymore.
In any daring activity, danger risks are always present. However, acquiring enough knowledge on how the equipment functions and how it moves can reduce the threats. Learning the proper techniques on how to hold the bull tightly by using the dominant hand, squeezing the thighs tightly against the body of the bull, as well as how to make use of the body movement correctly can lengthen the rider's time on top of the bull with lesser danger. Another thing is by being physically fit. It takes a healthy person to make it on the top of the bull. Individuals with pre-existing medical conditions such as high blood-pressure, osteoporosis, heart conditions and epilepsy are highly discouraged because it can add more damage to injury. The use of proper attire is also recommended to have a better chance on top of the bull.
The ultimate goal of every mechanical bull ride is to throw off the rider. However, being aware of the right methods on how to use the machine will not only lead to a successful bull ride but also a risk-free and entertaining activity.

Cell state reprogramming during tumor progression complicates accurate diagnosis, compromises therapeutic effectiveness, and fuels metastatic dissemination. We used chromatin accessibility assays and transcriptional profiling during mammary development as an agnostic approach to identify factors that mediate cancer cell state interconversions. We show that fetal and adult basal cells share epigenetic features consistent with multi-lineage differentiation potential. We find that DNA-binding motifs for SOX transcription factors are enriched in chromatin that is accessible in stem/progenitor cells and inaccessible in differentiated cells. In both mouse and human tumors, SOX10 expression correlates with stem/progenitor identity, dedifferentiation, and invasive characteristics. Strikingly, we demonstrate that SOX10 binds to genes that regulate neural crest cell identity, and that SOX10-positive tumor cells exhibit neural crest cell features.

There is an 80% probability that the Reserve Bank will cut repo rate by 0.25% in its monetary policy review on May 3, but it is "not a done deal", leading global brokerage firm Nomura said in a research note today.
There is an 80% probability that the Reserve Bank will cut repo rate by 0.25% in its monetary policy review on May 3, but it is "not a done deal", leading global brokerage firm Nomura said in a research note on Tuesday.
"With growth weak and WPI inflation lower, we believe that a cut is more likely than not, but it is not a done deal. We attach an 80% probability that the RBI will cut the repo rate by 25 basis points (0.25%) on May 3, followed by a long pause," Nomura said.
Declining price of vegetables pulled down inflation to over three-year low of 5.96% in March, core inflation moderated to 3.5% and food price inflation also eased to 8.2%, which is likely to prompt the RBI to consider a rate cut in its annual monetary policy next month.
In addition, the recent fall in commodity prices, including gold, is a boon for the Indian economy and would help in keeping the WPI inflation in check and also help moderate oil and gold imports in the coming months.
"However, lower commodity prices cannot replace fundamental reforms," Nomura said and noted that "India faces structural problems on food price inflation and supply constraints, which cannot be addressed by lowering interest rates".
Considering the weak growth momentum, the tax revenues of the government is likely to disappoint, in addition to this if the government continues to spend ahead of elections, then irrespective of the trend in WPI inflation, as higher spending ahead of the elections will worsen the imbalances again.
"We think monetary policy decisions based on WPI inflation (ignoring elevated core CPI inflation and supply constraints) will be erroneous. Monetary and fiscal policy should move hand in glove," it said.
Nomura further noted that there is a 20% chance that the RBI may leave rates unchanged, citing the 100 basis points (1%) of rate cuts already delivered and prodding banks to first transmit the existing cuts to consumers.
RBI, in its mid-quarter monetary policy review on March 18, reduced the repo rate by 25 basis points from 7.75 to 7.50% to help revive growth.

During my first summer at Surval, I spent a lot of my time admiring the breathtaking view of Lac Leman from my balcony. I couldn't get enough. Neither could I quite believe that I was working at a summer camp in Switzerland. Initially, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I quickly got the hang of things.
As a Surval summer camp helper, my role is to lead and accompany the girls in their activities. Watching them challenge themselves and bond over the wide range of organised activities, is an amazing thing to witness. I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to encourage and help the girls whilst being in the midst of all of the fun and action.
Being located so close to the lake, means lots of adventurous sessions such as stand up paddle boarding and sailing as well as some more relaxed ones, like visiting the Montreux Jazz Festival. There's something so incredible about leading the 10 – 16 year old campers. Their energy and enthusiasm when they are enjoying themselves is off the scale, so it is rewarding to see them having fun, especially when you know you have had a part to play in that.
But summer camp for me is about much more than simply having fun and making good memories. It's about building lasting relationships with people I wouldn't normally connect with in my day to day. At Surval, it's like we have the whole world united under one roof, each one of us, girls and staff members, representing a different culture and people group. I have learnt so much from talking to the girls and other staff members about their countries and customs.
The biggest thing that has kept me coming back to summer camp here has to be the sense of community that I have felt. It doesn't matter who you are, you could be a camper, a leader, a driver or a caterer, you are respected as a part of the community as much as the next person.
Surval has become like a summer home away from home for me and I'm super excited to see what summer 2016 has in store!


Since I started surfing through the internet looking for some nice looking summer recipes I came across a site with millions of smoothie recipes. Generally speaking I'm not into that exaggerated healthy lifestyle mode that a lot of women in my age are into right now. Eating is one of my favourite things to do, so taking it too seriously isn't a lot of fun for me. But smoothies totally fit into that summer feeling, if you know what I mean! They're fruity, full of vitamins and make you feel good about your food choices.
As I use canned peaches for baking quite often, I decided to try and use them in my super powerful mixer too. And let me tell you: The result was awesome and you should try it too!
5. All cans, including food cans are recyclable!

Seeking a new management company? Be sure to check out their RFP.
Management, Cooperatives & condominiums
Bill Morris

A Park Slope co-op shows how co-op and condo boards can use a detailed Request for Proposal (RFP) form to determine which management company is exactly the right fit for them
Read this article in the digital edition.
For a property manager, it was the homework assignment from hell. Take this 11-page questionnaire home with you over the weekend and spend several hours filling it out, explaining in great detail how you would go about managing a 96-unit Art Deco co-op in Brooklyn's Park Slope.
The form, a "Request for Proposal and Statement of Qualifications for Property Management Services," or RFP, is the sort of document co-op and condo boards traditionally send out when seeking to hire contractors or engineers. Now some boards have begun using simple RFPs – usually a couple of pages – when seeking a new management company. But the document produced by a four-member committee at the Park Slope co-op is very elaborate – and it could serve as a template for other boards looking to change management companies.
"We've gotten RFPs in the past, but not like this one," says Andrea Bunis, president of Andrea Bunis Management, the company that was recently hired by the Park Slope co-op from a field of 13 candidates. "This one was very detailed, with a lot of questions, and I spent a lot of time answering them. They asked some questions about my personal finances that I thought were a little over the top. I told them that was proprietary information, and I didn't answer it."
But Bunis answered everything else to the board's satisfaction, and on May 1, her company began managing the co-op, which was deeply dissatisfied with its previous management company.
The Process Begins
The process of replacing the old company began last spring, when Albert DeLeon, an attorney who has been the board's president since early 2009, approached several shareholders about helping with the hunt for a new management company. "I like to get non-board members involved in the building," DeLeon says. "I came up with four names – Stephen Bupp, who has experience managing condos; Paula Wagner, a retired teacher; Leith Harmon, a financial adviser; and Ben Forsyth, a retired college administrator."
The committee gathered references, visited other buildings, pored over Habitat's annual listing of managing agents. "It was Leith Harmon who came up with the idea of using an RFP – because she's smart," says DeLeon. "There's no rule book on this."
Working with DeLeon, the committee began to hammer out a document that specified what it expected from a management company. "I'm a lawyer, so I crafted a lot of it," says DeLeon. "We didn't re-invent anything. You can find a lot of this stuff on the web, but you try to tailor it to your building. We knew what we wanted. We wanted someone who has handled similar-sized buildings, maybe pre-World War II, someone who can manage staff. We wanted professionalism, responsiveness, experience, and recommendations. We checked their reputations."
Committee member Stephen Bupp, who manages condos and homeowners' associations in Maryland, says RFPs are widely used in management company searches outside New York City. "I think [the approach] works," he says. "I gave my fellow committee members a sample RFP from Maryland. We cut parts, added others. We wanted a management company that would manage the building and the staff, instead of letting the board do it. That had been the case before in our building."
The finished 11-page RFP went out to 13 companies, along with a cover letter. Six declined to fill out the questionnaire, saying they didn't want to spend the time. The committee members whittled the list to five and visited the companies' offices. After checking references – including at least one property that had terminated each company's services – the committee came up with three finalists. Each of those three companies came to the co-op for individual 50-minute interviews with the full board.
Bupp says that in addition to each candidate's RFP, the types of buildings they manage, the services they offer, and their references, the board was looking for an intangible he calls "relaxed professionalism."
"Andrea Bunis's presentation was good," says DeLeon. "They know what they're doing. They told us some things we didn't know – for example, that the new energy benchmarking law is about to take effect. That's the sort of thing we expect our managing agent to know."
Another asset is that Bunis's company has a website with a Client Resource Center, which sends notices, fields complaints, and posts building by building bylaws, house rules, and codes of conduct. "We did a meet-and-greet with all shareholders during our first week on the job," Bunis says. "We also sat down with the staff and explained that there will be change."
"The biggest change I hope to see," notes Bupp, "is that staff and management develop a 'can-do' attitude. It'll be a challenge for shareholders to deal with change – nobody likes change – but it can be very positive."
"We're moving into the age where people are now doing things electronically, especially if they're traveling," says DeLeon, who is pleased with the role the RFP played in the co-op's search for a management company. "I'd never heard of this being done before. You hear all these stories about bad management companies. How do you make them honest? If you do an RFP, you really have them on the hook, and it lets them know you're about business."
Bupp agrees. "I don't know how boards are going to judge property managers if they don't write down standards," he says.
But Alex Kuffel, president of Pride Property Management, cautions that RFPs can't simply be imported here from other cities. "If they're going to be used," he says, "they need to be tailored to the mandates and requirements – the idiosyncracies – of New York City."
In the case of the Park Slope co-op's lengthy RFP, Kuffel noted a glaring unawareness of these idiosyncracies. On the page titled "Management Bid Form," the questionnaire asks the management company to specify if its fee will be a flat fee or a percentage of the maintenance billed, the maintenance collected, the gross potential maintenance, or some "other" number.
"What went through my head when I read that," says Kuffel, "is that they took a nationwide RFP for a rental property and sent it out to management companies. All companies that manage co-ops and condos in New York City charge a flat fee. In rental properties it's a percentage of the rent roll. If a co-op refinances its mortgage and the maintenance goes up, it wouldn't be fair for the management company to collect more fees. So this question about fees is not applicable here."
Howard Mandel, a managing agent with TKR Property Services, believes that while RFPs might prove useful, they're no substitute for experience.
"I've had four RFPs in the past two years, so I would say it is not uncommon," he says. "I think it's happening more since you have more board members who work in finance getting involved. If you have a seasoned board that has been in control for a few years, you do not need an RFP to decide on a new management company. But if you do use one, I think an interview should come first, and then the RFP. That way you don't scare the management company away."
Andrea Bunis, for one, is glad she completed the homework assignment from hell. "I knew where I stood and what they wanted before I signed on the dotted line," she says. "And that's not a bad thing."

Die Pilze aus der Familie der Mürblingsverwandten (Psathyrellaceae) besitzen einen eher zarten, zerbrechlichen Fruchtkörper. Ein charakteristisches Merkmal einiger Arten ist das rasche Zerfließen der Fruchtkörper bei der Sporenreife. Sie sind als Saprobionten oft auf Mist oder stark gedüngtem Boden zu finden und keine Mykorrhizapilze.

Merkmale
Der Hut ist anfangs glockig, der Rand ist niemals eingerollt. Der Stiel sitzt immer zentral am Hut an. Die Lamellen sind meist frei oder angewachsen und nicht scheckig. Die Sporen besitzen einen deutlichen Keimporus. Das Sporenpulver ist dunkelbraun oder schwarz gefärbt.

Systematik
Ursprünglich wurde die Familie Tintlingsverwandte (Coprinaceae) genannt und enthielt alle als Tintlinge (Coprinus sensu lato) bezeichneten Pilzarten. Nach DNA-Untersuchungen stellte sich jedoch heraus, dass Coprinus polyphyletisch war und deshalb in die Gattungen Coprinus, Coprinellus und Coprinopsis aufgespalten werden muss.

Da die verbliebenen Coprinus-Arten näher mit den Champignonverwandten (Agaricaceae) verwandt sind, verlor die Familie ihre Typusgattung und musste in Mürblingsverwandte (Psathyrellaceae) umbenannt werden. Auch die ehemals zur Familie gerechneten Düngerlinge (Panaeolus) gehören nicht dazu, sondern zu den Mistpilzverwandten (Bolbitiaceae).

Folgende Gattungen sind Teil der Faserlingsverwandten:
 Mürblinge oder Faserlinge (Psathyrella)
 Saumpilze (Lacrymaria)
 Coprinellus
 Coprinopsis
 Specht-Tintling (Coprinopsis picacea)

Ron Ziegler may have called it a third-rate burglary, but the men who broke in to the Democratic National Committee headquarters all had a connection to the president's re-election campaign.
Ron Ziegler may have called it a third-rate burglary, but the men who broke in to the Democratic National Committee headquarters all had a connection to the president's re-election campaign.
Ronald Ziegler's characterization of the raid on the Democratic National Committee's headquarters as a "third-rate burglary attempt" was no doubt meant to be humorous. The five men arrested in the darkened offices in the middle of the night were not burglars; they were either free-lance intelligence entrepreneurs or agents employed by persons not yet identified. They had $6,000 in their possession and the bills had not been taken from the safe in the office; as everyone knows, the Committee is broke. The five men had ransacked part of the office. They had an expensive kit of intelligence paraphernalia in their possession: microphones, transmitters, cameras, lock picks, rubber surgical gloves, walkie-talkie radios, and a Minox "spy" camera and other equipment for copying documents. Two ceiling panels had been removed near Lawrence O'Brien's office. The five "burglars" gave false names when booked but were soon identified. All five have former connections with the CIA. One, James McCord, was employed as "security coordinator" for the Committee to Re-Elect the President and had also been employed by the Republican National Committee. The name of Howard Hunt was found on some papers in the possession of one of the men arrested. Hunt, who worked for the CIA from 1949 to 1970, has been an occasional $100-a-day consultant in the office of Charles W. Colson, special counsel to the President, whose office has the reputation of being the "department of dirty tricks" in the White House setup. Hunt had last worked for Colson as recently as March 29. He is regularly employed by Robert R. Mullen & Company, a Washington public relations firm which has been active in setting up various fake name committees to raise campaign funds for Richard M. Nixon. The walkie-talkie equipment found in the possession of those arrested had been leased by the Committee to Re-Elect the President and on May 7 McCord had been granted a temporary permit to use radio transmitters and trans-receivers by the FCC—rather odd behavior for a "burglar." Of course McCord was promptly discharged by the Republicans and pro forma denials of any knowledge or authorization of his actions have been issued by the White House and by John Mitchell. Colson, like Hunt, has not been available for questioning. More important, a tight lid was promptly clamped on the whole affair— Kleindienst was confirmed just in time—and the known facts have mostly been leaked to the press. It will be interesting to see how thorough and prompt the pending investigation will be.
Whatever the motive for the "breaking and entering," it was not burglary, third-rate or otherwise. The known facts that have leaked out warrant Lawrence O'Brien's statement that there is "developing a clear line to the White House." The attitude of Nixon, Mitchell and Kleindienst to wire tapping and bugging for "domestic security" suggests that they would be quite capable of making use of intelligence material improperly obtained by such methods. Of course they would never, never authorize such methods nor would they care to know too much about them in advance. Nervous and upset as Martha Mitchell was when interviewed at the Westchester Country Club, she may well have had a symbolic perception of the truth when she complained of "those dirty things" the politicians do and of the "cops and robbers game" that certain Washington politicians play. She had reason to complain for she has been rather roughly treated of late, what with those guards supplied by the Committee to Re-Elect the President snatching a phone from her hands in Newport Beach, Calif., and sticking a needle into her behind—as she put it. The word Mafia may, of course, no longer be used in a way that implies a smear against persons of Italian descent, but it is an apt metaphor all the same and may properly be applied to antics of the kind that took place in the Democratic Committee headquarters at the Watergate building.
As might be expected, O'Brien's efforts to force a prompt and thorough investigation were undercut by Sen. Mike Mansfield, who is supposed to function as the Democratic leader in the Senate but seldom does. Even as Mr. O'Brien was pointing to the clear line leading to the White House, Mansfield issued a blanket exoneration of the Republican high command. His confidence may ultimately be justified but he did not have the facts when he spoke; indeed an investigation had not then been ordered. He might, therefore, have waited until the real nature of the raid was established. Similarly, Mansfield was delighted to co-sponsor a resolution submitted by the White House which tied in approval for the offensive weapons agreement with approval of the new arms "modernization" program. This he did almost at the precise moment when Senator Fulbright had finished drafting a resolution which merely indicated approval of the agreement without reference to any additional arms authorizations. When asked about the discrepancy, Mansfield blandly said that he had not read the White House resolution before he agreed to sponsor it. Both actions are in the pattern of Mansfield's chronic predisposition to go along with any special request from the White House.


When it comes to your body, it is important that you care for it in the proper way. Most of the time, it is beneficial to consult friends and family in order to discover what really works. However, there is danger in hearing about treatments through word of mouth and they can often ring untrue. There are countless myths about chiropractic care that may keep you from seeking treatment. Yet, you should take the time to understand why these myths are not true.
At times when you are experiencing pain, the thought of additional pain is terrifying. However, Gainesville chiropractic treatment is mostly painless. There might be slight discomfort initially just because you are already sore in that area but it is not caused by the adjustment itself. In fact, following the treatment, patients experience a great amount of relief.
The neck and back are very integral to the function of the body. It makes sense that patients are tentative about who they let treat them. However, chiropractors are well educated and have a lot of experience. Following undergrad, they study for four years to five years at a chiropractic college. During this time, they actually typically log more hours of experience than medical doctors. Dr. Tucker finished his schooling with an accumulation of 4,500 hours of training and now has over 30 years of experience.
Many people are under the assumption that chiropractic treatment is more expensive than traditional medical care. However, some studies show that chiropractic care can be up to 40% cheaper than the alternative. Further, it is covered by most insurance companies including Medicare.
When a person thinks about chiropractors, they think of a patient needing treatment for their spine. Though they do focus on the alignment of your spine, chiropractors in Gainesville treat all major joints. Patients who are pregnant, athletes, in a car accident or have headaches may all be qualified to seek care from chiropractors.
Because many people associate chiropractic care with pain and violent movements, they tend to believe it is unsafe and unnecessary for children. However, what they do not realize is that children experience up to 1,500 spinal-related traumas by the time they are five years old. Further, there are alternatives to the traditional chiropractic treatments. For example, Charles Tucker utilizes the gentle chiropractic treatment called the Activator Method, which is a handheld tool that allows him to determine the precise amount of pressure used. He is experienced with children and has worked with a patient as young as one month old.
Many people are under the impression that chiropractic treatment is unsafe compared to standard medical treatment. However, chiropractic care is actually more safe than surgery because it is non-invasive. Further, common drugs recommended in these situations also have side effects that are more harmful than the treatment your trusted Gainesville chiropractor can give you.
When you are experiencing back pain, consider the benefits you can get from a chiropractor in Gainesville, FL. Dr. Tucker at Tucker Chiropractic can give you the care you need to treat your pain without the misconceptions you may have. Call our office today to schedule a consultation.

PHUKET CITY: About 1,000 protesters marched on Provincial Hall this afternoon in support of the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) demonstrations in Bangkok. The PAD wants Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej to resign.
The large crowd was bolstered by many people who had turned out to rally against the violence in Bangkok last night that left one PAD member dead and several others injured, resulting in PM Samak declaring a state of emergency in the capital this morning.
Natjarong Ekpermsup, President of Phuket Watch, told the Gazette, "We are here to show our support for the Bangkok PAD, who are trying to oust Samak. We do not want the airport blocked as we need it ourselves so that we can send reinforcements up to Bangkok.
However, Khun Natjarong forewarned that the PAD may yet step up its campaign. "On September 3 [Wednesday], electricity and water supplies to government offices will be cut off. I think the government is cornered now so they have to hire NorPorKor ["mob agitators"] to try to disrupt peaceful protests.
"In my opinion, Samak's government announced the state of emergency in Bangkok to divert attention from the main issue, which is him resigning.
Phuket PAD protesters this afternoon boarded five buses bound for Bangkok. "Protesters from Haad Yai, Surat Thani and Phang Nga will also head to Bangkok to join the PAD rally there," K. Natjarong said.

Tessa Blanchard will challenge Sami Callihan for Impact Wrestling World Championship at 'Hard To Kill' pay-per-view
AXS TV issued the following press release:
IMPACT WRESTLING TO MAKE HISTORY AS TESSA BLANCHARD CHALLENGES SAMI CALLIHAN FOR THE IMPACT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP AT 'HARD TO KILL' ON SUNDAY, JANUARY 12
The Groundbreaking Event Marks the First Time in Professional Wrestling History that a Woman will Challenge for a Promotion's Top Championship Live on Pay-Per-View
NEW YORK CITY – (November 8, 2019) IMPACT Wrestling, a subsidiary of the leading independent multi-platform media company Anthem Sports & Entertainment Inc., announced today in New York City that third-generation superstar Tessa Blanchard will take on bitter rival Sami Callihan for the IMPACT World Championship in a historic main event matchup at the promotion's upcoming Hard To Kill pay-per-view event on Sunday, January 12, 2020, at The Bomb Factory in Dallas, TX. The bout marks the first time in professional wrestling that a woman will challenge a man for the top title live on pay-per-view. Callihan and Blanchard were both in attendance today, joined by several IMPACT Wrestling officials.
Titanium tickets for Hard To Kill at The Bomb Factory officially go on sale on Nov. 15 and general admission tickets will be going on sale on Nov. 18.
The title fight will not be the first time that the foes have faced off in the ring. Their bitter rivalry extends back to Slammiversary XVII, where Callihan was able to overcome a tremendous effort from Blanchard and pin her after unleashing a vicious arsenal of DDTs and piledrivers. Since that unforgettable showdown, Callihan defeated Brian Cage to claim possession of the IMPACT World Championship on the debut of IMPACT! on AXS TV in November.
"IMPACT Wrestling has always been a trailblazer in the professional wrestling world, from our Knockouts division to never-before-seen matches like Ultimate X," said Scott D'Amore, executive vice president of IMPACT Wrestling. "In her short career, Tessa Blanchard has already demonstrated that she is not only one of the best female professional wrestlers in the world, but one of the very best, period. On January 12th, she will get the opportunity to make history when she challenges for the World Championship live on pay-per-view."
"I intend to become the first female World Champion in IMPACT Wrestling history on January 12th at Hard To Kill," Blanchard said. "This isn't just about our rivalry, and this goes far beyond the IMPACT World Championship. This is about showing everyone that Tessa Blanchard is the real deal, and I'm here to stay. I can go toe-to-toe with any man or woman in the world, and in any type of match. I've earned this shot, and I won't stop until I'm raising that belt up high for all of my doubters to see."
"I'll give Tessa credit for one thing: she's not afraid to make herself look like a fool on national television," Callihan said. "I've already proven that she is not on my level and I intend to do it again. No one will be making history at my expense, so I plan on destroying Tessa and establishing my legacy as the greatest World Champion in IMPACT Wrestling history."

WOMAN LEAPS OFF BUS
Aug 2, 2019 | News | 0
A young woman narrowly escaped death after jumping out of a moving bus on Wednesday night when the bus driver refused to drop her at her stop.
The woman, in her mid-twenties, is now in medical care at the Vila Central Hospital (VCH) with several broken bones and a head injury.
The incident occurred after 10.30PM at Au Bon Marche Manples Federation.
According to the Public Land Transport Authority (PLTA), the offender was driving a white Toyota Hiace bus (commonly referred to as a 'box' bus) with an associate sitting at the front passenger seat.
The victim and her friend, both employees at Au Bon Marche Tassiriki, had stopped the bus there around 10.30PM. Her friend got off at Ohlen leaving the young woman alone with the two men.
The victim claimed the bus had refused to stopover after she indicated her stop at ABM Manples bus stop.
Alarmed and terrified, she opened the door and leaped out onto the passenger sidewalks, throwing herself over the cement pavement.
ProMedical Emergency Service arrived at the scene a few minutes after the incident to check on her vitals and to transport her to the hospital.
Daily Post understands that the woman is progressing well from a crucial to a stable condition.
The PLTA claimed the victim has recollected a few information about the driver, saying the driver has mentioned traveling back to Nambatu area which means the driver could be residing at Nambatu.
The victim did not memorise the bus registration number but her friend who travelled with her claimed to have recognised the driver's face as she departed at Ohlen.
Vanuatu's online magazine for women, Sista, shared the distress of the incident and hoped this could be seen as a wake-up call to the society of the importance in addressing violence against women and girls on public transports.
In commemorating Children's Day this year, the Ministry of Education and Training, and Sista had launched an essay competition for Secondary students, Year 7 and above on the proposed essay question: How would you address violence against women and girls on public transport?
"One thing Sista is advocating for is women safety on public transport, particularly at night time," said Yasmine Bjornum, the editor of Sista.
"Generally, the Police would make comments that encourages girls to avoid stopping a bus at night and to also memorise the bus registration number, but in theory, that is not a girl's responsibility.
"A girl has every right to stop a bus at night.
"The authorities especially the Public Land Transport Authority is taking a stand against violence caused against women on public transport by appealing to every bus drivers to bear in mind the consequences and to respect the term – Gender Equality."
Accidents continue to be a leading cause of serious injury and death. The PLTA is strongly appealing to everyone with information on the Bus driver or the owner to call 7778633/5489241 immediately.
The PLTA also reported an alleged rape case involving two boys on a bus at Erakor on Wednesday night.
In this case, the bus owner's name, contact details and the vehicle registration number were given to the police.
The PLTA further emphasised on the importance of noting the registration number of a bus so it can be tracked down with the driver's information, in order for the culprit to be apprehended and penalised.

Bangladesh charges former chief justice with graft
Photo: Scroll.in
DHAKA: Bangladesh's anti-graft office has charged the former chief justice with corruption nearly two years after he fled the country saying he was forced to resign, an official said Thursday.
Surendra Kumar Sinha, who had led the South Asian nation's Supreme Court to a landmark verdict on judicial independence that went against the government, left Bangladesh in late 2017 amid widespread allegations he had been pressured to step aside.
Opposition groups raised fears that his departure was a blow to the credibility of the judiciary in the Muslim-majority country, ruled by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's Awami League party since 2009.
On Wednesday, the Anti Corruption Commission (ACC) filed a lawsuit against Sinha and 10 others including a former bank chief executive on charges of graft, money laundering and abuse of power.

The Great Dickens Christmas Fair is a one-of-a-kind holiday adventure into Victorian London - an elaborate party with hundreds of costumed players performing and interacting with patrons in over 120,000 square feet of theatrically-lit music halls, pubs, dance floors, and Christmas shops. It's a twilight evening in Charles Dickens' London Town - a city of winding lanes filled with colorful characters from both literature and history. Enticing aromas of roasted chestnuts and hearty foods fill the air. Cries of street vendors hawking their wares ring out above the bustling crowd. Dozens of lamplit shops are filled to overflowing with Christmas gifts. The Dickens Christmas Fair is a treasured Bay Area tradition since 1970 and a splendid way to celebrate the holidays.

Zappa Lives in Londonderry
On September 28, five musicians hit the intimate stage at the Tupelo Music Hall in Londonderry, NH and offered selections from one of the greatest music catalogs of all time. The band was The GrandMothers of Invention; the songs were by the incomparable Frank Zappa.
With the 20th anniversary of Zappa's death approaching, former Mothers of Invention members Napoleon Murphy Brock (who served a 10-year stint in the group beginning in 1974) and Don Preston (whose time with Frank goes all the way back to 1967's Absolutely Free) are on a mission to bring genuine representations of Zappa material to today's audiences. Billed as The GrandMothers of Invention, the duo (joined by guitarist "Mad" Max Kutner, bassist Dave Johnsen and drummer Christopher Garcia) keep up a rigorous touring schedule more intense than most outfits half (well, actually, make that one-third) their age. Presenting a show centered around Zappa's 1975 album One Size Fits All (with some Roxy & Elsewhere and Burnt Weeny Sandwich gems added for extra awe), The GrandMothers showed the full room of amazed fans at the Tupelo what is possible when musicians of the highest-possible caliber come together to pay tribute to an unsurpassed visionary.
While it is understandably impossible to pick out highlights from a set this magical, I will submit that "Po-Jama People," "San Ber'dino" and "Florentine Pogen" were slightly more transcendental than the rest. And there aren't enough adjectives in the world to describe the playing of the immeasurably gifted Don Preston, who at 81 is still representing the Mothers with inspiring aplomb.
Don Preston
Additionally, the performance brilliantly illustrated just how much of an impact Zappa's music has truly had on subsequent generations of players. It was easy to hear shades of Fishbone, Bad Brains, Primus and countless other artists who have followed Zappa's lead in taking music to new and exciting stratospheres. On this night, The GrandMothers effortlessly proved that Frank's music was never confined to a particular time and place – it is truly timeless.
An engaging frontman, Brock made the show a lighthearted affair with silly moves and constant jokes. While The GrandMothers brought plenty of fun to the table, they absolutely meant business with every single note they produced onstage. It was truly remarkable how spot-on they were in re-creating One Size Fits All's complex compositions. Absolutely stunning.
Napoleon Murphy Brock
I could go on, but there are times when words fail and the heart takes over. Don't read about this band – feel this band. Take the time to hunt down live clips of The GrandMothers Of Invention online and get a taste of what this group has to offer. If you're impressed by what you see on your computer screen (how can you not be?), then go HERE and HERE to here on find out when they're playing your area. The GrandMothers live to play these songs, and anyone who truly loves music needs to catch one of their shows as soon as possible. They are as real as it gets, folks.

Q: How to make a button clickable in rows in the table with same functionality but for different row (Not add/delete/edit) For example the open button if I press it should turn to red, but all the buttons in other rows also turn to red because are on the same component.
Script
let user = { loggedIn: false };
function toggle(item) {
  user.loggedIn = !user.loggedIn;
}
{#if !user.loggedIn}
  <button id={item.id} class="bg-green-500 hover:bg-green-700 text-white font-bold py-2 px-4 rounded-full" on:click={toggle(item)}>
    Open
  </button>
  {/if}  {#if user.loggedIn}
    <button   id={item.id} class="bg-red-500 hover:bg-red-700 text-white font-bold py-2 px-4 rounded-full" on:click={toggle(item)}>
      Close
    </button>
  {/if}

A: The ID doesn't really come into play with Svelte styling (unless you want it to).  I think that, at the moment, your problems are with your click handler syntax (as H.B. stated) and likely how you are passing data into your Button component.  I'm also not entirely sure what is going on with item, since it isn't really defined anywhere (maybe that's somewhere else in your code?). Taking your example, I trimmed out some of the fat to make it easier to read on SO.  Hopefully I understood what you're trying to do correctly.  Let me know if not, and I'll update.  REPL Link(updated: 08.04.2022)
**UPDATE (08.04.2022) **
You can use event dispatching and/or data binding.  You likely will not need both, unless your use case is much more complicated than this post indicates.
Event Dispatcher:
To bubble the event back up to the parent, you import createEventDispatcher, then use it to create a dispatcher.  When you dispatch an event (used here in the toggle event), you can create whatever name you want and pass any data you want.  You, then, listen for that in the parent and assign a function to the event (here, on:eventNameToListenFor={eventFromApp}).
Data Binding:
If that feels too heavy-handed and you only need to get the changed data back to App, you can just bind it when you assign it to button: <Btn bind:user={user} />
Button.svelte (Note the on:click handler and the export let for the user variable).
<script>
    import {createEventDispatcher} from 'svelte';
    const dispatch = createEventDispatcher();

    export let user = { loggedIn: false};
    function toggle() {
        user.loggedIn = !user.loggedIn;
        dispatch("eventNameToListenFor", user);
    }
</script>

{#if !user.loggedIn}
  <button class="bg-green-500" on:click={()=>toggle()}>
    Open
  </button>
{:else}
    <button class="bg-red-500" on:click={()=>toggle()}>
        Close
</button>
{/if}

App.svelte (or whatever is using the Button)
<script>
    import Btn from './Button.svelte'
    let users = [{id: 1, loggedIn: false}, {id: 2, loggedIn: false}, {id: 3, loggedIn: true}];
    const eventFromApp = (event) => {console.log(event.detail)}
</script>
{#each users as user}
    <Btn bind:user={user} on:eventNameToListenFor={eventFromApp}/>
{/each}

There is no way to know the future. You could have a steady job and no worries today, but what were to happen if you lost that? If you were to lose your job and didn't get back into the work force right away, you may find yourself with some serious issues. There are some ways to combat this, but many don't figure it out until long after they've chased other solutions. If you find yourself in a financial mess, you can look towards a few tips and tricks to get you back on your feet. This includes checking out a pawn shop to help with lending or selling goods, or even selling your jewelry to a reputable source like www.cash4jewelrynow.com.
Why Not Go To A Bank?
Many people will immediately think that a bank is going to be the best option moving forward. That's not always a great thing. Let's assume that you were able to go to a bank and ask for a loan. The average bank today is not going to give you money if you don't have great credit. If you have less than stellar credit, expect to not only pay a high interest rate, but also have to deal with a variety of issues, such as limited accessibility to funding, and delays in even getting your initial loan amount.
In most instances, banks aren't going to give you money unless you can convince them that you're an outstanding citizen and have a stellar track record of paying off loans from the past. Even then, a bank may not want to lend you money, and that's a struggle many people have faced.
Perhaps the best way to tackle a financial problem is to sell unwanted jewelry. This is an option that has been getting a lot of traction lately, and it's because it works. Not only does it works, it has been proven to be more effective than many other solutions. Precious metals such as gold, silver, and more are in high demand, and companies are willing to pay top dollar for them. You may have jewelry in your home that you don't use. If you don't use certain items, why not sell them off and profit? The thing is, you'll need to utilize a reputable source, or you could end up with a payout that is less than what the value of the item is. Companies like Cash4jewelrynow.com, will help you with this, just make sure that you have good pieces to sell.
Another option that you may not know about is your local pawn shop. Pawn shops can offer a variety of opportunities to cash in when times are tough. They can offer you a loan through collateral exchange, or you could sell items outright. Many people choose to sell items outright and get paid on the spot. There is no credit check or any issues with this, as long as you have items to sell that are valuable. They don't have to be gold and jewelry, but that is an option that most companies will move forward with. Whatever the case may be, you'll find that pawn shops are great resources for getting fast cash, when you need it most.
The above options are just a few things that you can do to ensure that you are not left out cold. When financial crisis hits, make sure that you're prepared and willing to go forward with the above. Selling items, going to a pawn shop, or even a short-term loan can help you out. No matter what life throws at you, there are options to explore, that's for sure.

The money lies that couples tell—and how to stop them
Dr. Peterson (not his real name) is an emergency physician. Married for 13 years, he's never cheated on his wife and he's confident that he never will. Yet Dr. Peterson has a nagging, ongoing secret that he keeps from her.
He has a private credit card that he sometimes accesses after he experiences a particularly stressful period at the hospital and gets the urge to splurge on something off-budget, frivolous and expensive. A $3,000-plus graphite golf iron, for example. Or a $2,400 leather Prada briefcase.
People like Dr. Peterson are guilty of financial infidelity—and there are plenty of them. A 2018 survey of 1,550 Canadians conducted by the polling firm Leger found that 36% of those in relationships actively lied to their partners about finances. As well, 34% intentionally kept their significant others in the dark about certain money matters—lies of omission.
These hidden actions can take many forms. Some people use the food budget to buy gift cards at the supermarket as a way to make secret purchases later. Others establish secret bank accounts—either at home or offshore—that they alone can access. Or they set up a hidden account with a sibling or parent. Still others hide a recent raise or inheritance. Some keep valuables in a secret safety deposit box.
However it's done, though, financial infidelity is an equal opportunity problem. The survey found that men and women are equally likely to keep money secrets from their partners or to lie to them about a financial matter.
Financial infidelity can damage otherwise solid relationships. If you find yourself facing this problem, it's important to get things in hand now.
Talk it out
Whether you're the source of the issue or the one who has been kept in the dark, communication is the first crucial step in moving forward. Schedule a meeting to discuss the situation. But wait for the emotional temperature to cool so both of you can address the problem rationally.
Once you're ready to meet, both of you should bring your financial information—credit cards, line-of-credit balances, car loans and so on—to the table. Be honest about any methods either of you might have used to hide money. Depending on your relationship, you may already have an understanding on what is shared and what belongs to each person.
Based on that understanding, you can reveal bank accounts, gift cards, safety deposit boxes and new sources of income you may have. Then, put this information aside for the moment.
First, have a calm and open conversation about the root of the problem. If you need a neutral third party to help you do so, a financial advisor can help you look at your financial situation rationally together. If you suspect your problems run deeper—perhaps you have trust issues—seeing a couples counsellor might be in order.
Analyze and consolidate
Now's the time to examine the books. Overcoming financial infidelity must be a joint effort. Make a firm commitment to work together, and dedicate as much time as you need to do so. Take a critical look at everything you plan to spend going forward.
After accounting for necessities—food, shelter, car loan and student loan payments, for example—assess how much disposable income remains and analyze where, when and how any overspending may occur. Evaluate your credit card balances and loans. Close any secret accounts. Cash in gift cards while they're still valid. Empty safety deposit boxes that you don't share with your partner. Reveal new money sources—a recent inheritance or a raise in pay, for example—that you might have.
Ensure that you both agree on how you will deal with your finances. If you prefer to manage some finances individually, that's perfectly fine. The key is to be transparent and aligned about how finances are dealt with.
Focus on the future
With the financial infidelity out in the open, the worst is over. Moving forward, agree to a solid plan to ensure that you both understand and follow the expectations you've set as a couple. Acknowledge each other's efforts and celebrate together as you rebuild.
The take-away: Financial lies can damage your happiness as a couple, but you can move past them if you don't let them fester. So if this story speaks to you, no more secrets. Act now.
