Vice-President Reding welcomes latest progress in European Parliament for women on boards
European Commission Vice-President Viviane Reding, the EU's Justice Commissioner, today welcomed the latest progress in European Parliament in support of her proposal to improve the gender balance in Europe's boardrooms (European Commission Vice-President Viviane Reding, the EU's Justice Commissioner, today welcomed the latest progress in European Parliament in support of her proposal to improve the gender balance in Europe's boardrooms (IP/12/1205). The Parliament's Employment and Social Affairs Committee (EMPL) voted by an overwhelming majority (37 in favour, 5 against, 4 abstentions) to support the Commission's proposal. This follows the European Parliament Legal Affairs committee's vote on 26 June confirming that the Commission's proposal is based on the correct legal basis dealing with gender equality.
"It is good to see that one chamber of the European legislature, namely the European Parliament, is backing the Commission's proposal for more women on boards," said Vice-President Viviane Reding, the EU's Justice Commissioner. "The examples of Belgium, France and Italy clearly demonstrate: time-limited regulatory intervention works. Alone the fact that we have put a draft law on the table has already got things moving. Companies are starting to adapt even before the law is in place: we see more and more companies across Europe appointing women to their supervisory boards. The strong support of the European Parliament has helped accelerate progress. I would like to thank the rapporteur of the Parliament's Employment and Social Affairs Committee, Marije Cornelissen, for her work. I will continue to work on parallel progress in the Council."
The Employment and Social Affairs Committee report underlines the need to maintain a balanced proposal and seeks to simplify the procedural aspect of the proposal (to take account of those instances of appointments which are not based on qualifications).
Progress and next steps: In order to become law, the Commission's proposal now needs to be adopted by the European Parliament and by the EU Member States in the Council. The European Parliament has appointed Member of the European Parliament (MEP) Rodi Kratsa-Tsagaropoulou (Committee on Women's Rights) and MEP Evelyn Regner (Committee on Legal Affairs) as co-rapporteurs (draftspersons) for the proposal. In parallel to today's EMPL Committee vote, the European Parliament's Committees on Legal Affairs (JURI) and Women's Rights and Gender Equality (FEMM) presented a draft report which also endorses the Commission's approach. The JURI and FEMM committees, which are jointly responsible for piloting the proposal through the Parliament, are due to vote on this report in October.

The Council held a first discussion on the proposal in December (MEMO/12/940) and took stock of progress achieved under the Irish Presidency at the meeting of Employment and Social Affairs ministers (EPSCO Council) on 20 June 2013 (MEMO/13/584). The Lithuanian Presidency will pursue the discussion later this month.

Talk:Against the Charr
I may have got the Charr Firereigner name wrong in the walkthrough. I think this is what they were called, though i am not 100% certain. Please correct if incorrect.
Did anyone else have a problem of if you talk to the siege devourer without an explosive in hand the siege devourer kills itself? Rhia Aryx 17:54, 10 September 2007 (CDT)
And does completing the optionals have any effect on the quest at all? Reward, number of enemies fought, etc? Rhia Aryx 18:10, 10 September 2007 (CDT)
I think the siege devourer fires at the base, then theoretically gets hit by a counter siege from the enemy base
Nah, the charr in a later quest say they'll teach you how to use a siege devourer without it blowing up on you, so it's a function of your inexperience with them at work. -Gildan Bladeborn 17:54, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Walkthrough Picture[edit source]
I replaced the picture for the quest. The original had only a screen of the objectives:
<Original | Replaced with>
Anyone against this? Khazad Guard 17:34, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
Hard Mode Hero's Handbook Credit[edit source]
Do you have to do the optional objectives to gain credit for the quest in the Hero's Handbook? -Malcheior Sveth 05:39, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
No, you don't. -66.167.214.11 23:11, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
Rewards[edit source]
It says 7,500 points here . How much do the optional tasks give?
The 7,500xp is only temporary, you get triple-XP for GW:EN missions during the Eye of the North Blow-out Event. The optional tasks do not give any reward beyond depleting the "strength" of the Charr stronghold, you can just go straight for Harvest Soulreign and still get the same reward. --Wolfie (talk|contribs) 22:15, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
Bug with spawning in Charr mobs at end[edit source]
I was wondering why I was still spawning in the big mob of charr after completing this mission, even though I didnt have Plan A in my quest list. Turns out it's Failure to Communicate. I'm not sure if it's just FtC, or if Plan A also played a part. Right now, i'll leave it as either, but it could just be FtC. Bigrat2 Talk 00:55, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
Good for exp?[edit source]
You can run to the encampment and kill the necro boss in under 8 minutes playing normally. I'm sure with "Charge!", and some particular anti-necro skills that this could be done in 5 for so. 5 minutes for 2500 exp is pretty good, isn't it? Merick 13:40, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Yh, but you'd need to use an elite slot for "Charge!" RT | Talk 13:52, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
And in 5 minutes you can run about 5 or 6 runs of HFF, netting you more than quadruple the exp than doing this, you also don't really have to do much, just sit there and collect your reward... ICY FIFTY FIVE 04:06, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
How to repeat?[edit source]
I have completed the quest, but I forgot to cap barrage... I have returned to do it immediatly after completion and I've gone to the little flag marker and all that I find there are some enemies. No person who lets u go back to replay the mission (or that helmet) i left NF at lvl 10 so i dont want to continue into a pointless campaign for a single cap. do I have to do something before I can replay the quest? Boredom Fuels The Mind 21:25, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
Check out the two ways you can get this mission in the "Obtained from" title under the Objectives section of the article. There is more than one way to capture Barrage as outlined in that article's "Acquisition" section. --Wolfie (talk|contribs) 23:06, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
thank you for the help... this is my first time using the wiki, and my very first (well technically second) post.--Dragline 04:56, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
A bit late in the day but... do you sign with a different name every time? -->Suicidal Tendencie 20:12, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
Firereigners drop another explosive after being revived.[edit source]
I just finished doing this mission, and during the mission a firereigner had been revived, and then he dropped another charr explosive after I killed him again. I was wondering if this little tidbit should be added to the main page.
Master of the North[edit source]
If you're going for the Vanquisher Title...
Should we replace it, make it longer...I'm tired and feel like I'm likely to make a "clever" decision if left to my own devices... -->Suicidal Tendencie 20:08, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
Oh shi--![edit source]
Having Plan A active when you finish this quest/mission leads to an...amusing situation. (T/C) 03:20, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
What happens?-- îğá†ħŕášħ 03:22, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
Shit happens. :P (T/C) 07:12, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Echo Buttons are physical buttons, initially sold in sets of two, that enable users to buzz in as part of the skill experience.
Echo Buttons are battery-powered, contain RGB LEDs, and connect to compatible Amazon Echo devices using Bluetooth. After buying the buttons and pairing them to an Echo device, users can use the buttons with skills that are marked as Requires Echo Buttons or Optional: Echo Buttons in the Alexa Skill Store.
Echo Buttons contain a Bluetooth radio that enables users to initiate pairing with a compatible Echo device through voice or through the Amazon Alexa app. A typical user flow is to purchase the buttons, unbox and power the buttons using two AAA batteries, put the buttons within range of a compatible Echo device, and then say a command such as "Alexa, set up my Echo Buttons."
Users can also visit the Alexa app, go to the settings screen for a specific Echo device, and select "Pair Alexa Gadget" to initiate the pairing process. Alexa will prompt the user to press the Echo Buttons, one at a time, to register them as connected to the device.
Once paired with a compatible Echo device, users can use the buttons with any skill that supports the button events and gameplay designed by skill developers. To conserve battery power, Echo Buttons do not maintain an active connection at all times, so your skill flow should include a roll call interaction that allows active players to confirm they are ready to play.
Echo Buttons can be paired with more than one Echo device, but when a skill is using the buttons, the buttons can only be paired with a single device.
When designing skills that interact with Echo Buttons, keep in mind the latency between a button press going to the cloud and back. This latency is variable and depends on several factors. Experiment and be creative when working with this constraint.
For a list of Echo devices that are compatible with Echo Buttons, see the Echo Button Detail Page.

2011 @ Fantasia
Posted on September 2, 2020 September 2, 2020 by Carey
Fantasia over its 24 years has evolved from a film festival which screened monsters to a monster itself. In a good way. What I mean is that Fantasia started off as a small festival which screened obscure films to be huge in size and popularity. As such, it has become a launching pad for many a genre film.
This is especially true for films made in Canada and Quebec. It dedicates a significant part of its roster to local films giving light and a passionate film audience to films which otherwise might not have found their way to the public. As such it is important as a film critic (as well as festival attendee) to take in at least one or two local films, which I try to do every year.
What this will do is grow your appreciation for all the talent we have here. Population-wise Quebec is not a big place, but we do have an impressive amount of film talent. My second Quebec film of the festival is 2011 directed by Alexandre Prieur-Grenier. The best way for me to sum it up would be to say it was….well….weird.
Now, weird is what I have come to expect and appreciate about Fantasia films. Nothing is run of the mill here. Even the romance or comedies are different. That being said, I think my enjoyment of left of center films has been well documented here. I love atypical films. But at a certain point…there has to be something you can grasp onto in a film.
It is a dark in tone and look film about a young film editor whose grasp on reality seems to be slipping away rapidly as he works on his latest job. He works from home and so spends a lot of time alone. When he is not being turned inside out by the demanding director of the film. As well, he is being distracted by what is happening with a couple living in his building. And to top it off he seems to be growing more and more interested in one of the actresses from the film he is working on despite the fact that he has never met her, only seen her on film. Oh, and did I mention that there are strange noises coming from the apartment next door to his even though there does not seem to be anyone living there?
What is real and what isn't is the central theme of Prieur-Grenier's film. Which is interesting in itself, but somehow this missed the mark for me. It is obvious that the director was trying to push the limits of what is possible in regards to story and the visuals. There does have to be some boundary though. And that line in the celluloid sand for me is the viewer's ability to engage in what is happening in front of your eyes.
On the other hand it is almost the perfect film for today. What we are living through, the isolation and the dark feeling about everything. Is it real or are we just all losing our minds. Some might relate to the film just due to that.

Creatively Savvy: November Scraptastic Club Kit Sneak Peeks!
Can you believe it's almost November! So lets get to it! Which are you picking?
First here is the November This Life Noted kit. I am loving the great wood veneers!
Next is the Free Fallin Kit - This is the one I am getting! I love fall. I don't have fall here, but I do love it!
And Finally the beautiful Shake It Off kit!


Ask for a credit from the sellers on top of a zero down payment loan. So, a buyer walks into a lending institution and asks for a loan where there's no down payment required. Zero. Zilch. And the lender says "here you go!" Next, the buyer asks the sellers for a fairly sizable credit toward closing costs, and the seller says "OK – if you bring up the price a little to cover the credit." This is how to purchase a pretty condo without a penny out of your own pocket. Please note, this doesn't happen every day.
Ask for a list of 13 repairs from a flipper. Maybe the flippers got ahead of themselves and always intended to put mirrors above the sinks in the three bathrooms, but since they weren't there at the time of the buyers' Home Inspection, they ended up on the long list of requests. Including the attaching the garage door opener, fixing the A/C unit, and a fairly expensive chimney repair, to be made by a specific local chimney repair company. And they graciously said "yes" to every single item. Happy times!
Send in only 80% of the initial deposit called for in the contract. When the buyer only sends in a portion of initial deposit, escrow comes a 'calling to request the remaining funds. When the buyer takes four days to set up the wire for the rest of the money, now putting him six days past the actual due date of the deposit, bad things might happen. Luckily, the seller didn't initiate a Notice to Buyer to Perform, giving him the option to cancel the contract. Happily, the money got to escrow just before the sellers' patience had worn thin.
Make an offer on a home only toured via FaceTime. When you live in the Kansas and your employer relocates you to Orange County, but your kid's still in school, your wife works from home and you don't want to be left homeless once you close on your Kansas home, you move into a three month lease, still in Kansas, and depend on your iPhone to help with your home buying. Then you and your trusty tech-savvy Realtor embark on a virtual tour of all of the likely candidates – she on her iPhone and you and your wife on theirs. Thirteen tours and several offers later, and of course an eventual in-person visit, and this happy family is basking pool-side in their new OC domicile.
Accept a contingent offer on a contingent offer. When you make an offer to purchase a home that is contingent on selling your current home, that is listed for sale but not yet in escrow, you are already on shaky ground. You're lucky the willing seller accepts your contingent offer, on the verbal assurances that there are several interested buyers and an offer is expected any day. Then, the offer you receive on your home (which, remember, needs to sell in order for you to buy the original sellers' home) is also contingent on the sale of the buyers' home, which is listed for sale but not in escrow, now you've got a lot of moving parts, that all have to come together, and within a time frame that works for all three deals and all four principal parties. I'm calling this one the 2016 Miracle that ended happily for all on December 22, 2016. Wishing you all a Happy New Year.

La Coppa d'Oro (aussi connue comme Course "d'une lire" et Grand Prix des Directeurs Sportifs d'Italie) est une course cycliste italienne réservée à la catégorie cadet (15/16 ans), qui se déroule chaque année en septembre dans le village de Borgo Valsugana, en région du Trentin-Haut-Adige.

Histoire

La course a été conçue et organisée pour la première fois en 1965 par Carlo Dalla Torre. Les trois premières éditions se sont déroulées dans les villes d'Avio, Preore et Trento. En 1968, la course est arrivée définitivement à  Borgo Valsugana. En 1969, 1976 et 1977, l'épreuve n'est pas disputée.
Le Prix final est livré au directeur sportif de l'équipe dans laquelle se trouve le cycliste gagnant. Dans le temps, il s'agissait d'une pièce de 1 lire mais, ces dernières années, cette reconnaissance symbolique a été remplacée par des prix en argent. Il n'y a pas que la course pour les cadets. À partir de 1997, on a aussi la Coppetta d'Oro, une course pour les plus jeunes au Centre sportif de Borgo Valsugana. Dès 2000, on a ajouté la Coppa Rosa, une course pour les cadettes qui a lieu le jour avant la Coppa d'Oro suivant un parcours de 50 km à peu près en partant de Borgo Valsugana pour arriver jusqu'à la limite de la Région Vénétie et de retour. Finalement, de l'année 2007, la manifestation comprend toutes les catégories du cyclisme des jeunes de 7 à 16 ans avec la Coppa di Sera, une course pour débutants masculins et féminins qui se déroule sur un tracé interne à Borgo Valsugana.

Jusqu'à présent, le seul athlète qui ait gagné deux éditions de la Coppa d'Oro est Diego Ulissi, en 2004 et 2005.

L'édition 2020 est annulée en raison du contexte sanitaire lié à la pandémie de Covid-19.

Parcours
Le départ de la course est donné à Borgo Valsugana. On suit la route départementale 228 et on croise les communes de Roncegno Terme, Novaledo et Levico Terme. Puis on monte la colline de Tenna, on descend vers Pergine Valsugana et l'on retourne à Borgo Valsugana suivant le même tracé. À la fin de la course, les cyclistes parcourent deux fois la montée qui va de Scurelle à Telve, pour arriver après 81,2 km dans le centre de Borgo Valsugana.

Consider the Iguana a Jack of all traids for long, difficult routes. Lightweight and collapsible, you can hang these from the back of your harness or stash 'em in your climbing pack, no problem. The EVA midsole still gives you a plush ride on the descent. Scarpa uses a zonal weave upper, with different construction zones for breathability and light weight support. Long routes in Red Rocks or descending into the Black? Consider the Iguana.

Parliamentary Committee hears from NWRIC and Veolia
The House Standing Committee on Industry, Innovation, Science and Resources' inquiry into innovative solutions in Australia's waste management and recycling industries resumed last week. Appearances were made by National Waste and Recycling Industry Council (NWRIC) CEO Rose Reid and Veolia Australia & New Zealand CEO & managing director Danny Conlon.
The last sitting by the committee was on March 4 and the next is scheduled for tomorrow, June 17 when Narromine Shire Council, Camden Council and Campbelltown City Council and City of Port Adelaide Enfield and the City of Charles Sturt will appear.
They have a broad term of reference to inquire into and report on innovative solutions in Australia's waste management and recycling industries, including:
Industrial, commercial and domestic waste;
Waste in waterways and oceans;
Landfill reduction; and
Other related matters.
The Committee's focus is on opportunities presented by waste materials, including energy production, innovative recycling approaches and export opportunities, and the consideration to current impediments to innovation.
Reid told Inside Waste that the Committee had asked some excellent questions about the challenges faced by the industry and how the government could assist through supporting innovation, infrastructure and technology development.
The NWRIC along with other industry bodies including the Waste Management and Resources Recovery Association (WMRR) made submissions earlier this year.
"The NWRIC welcomes this inquiry as it indicates that the Commonwealth government acknowledges waste as a resource that has the potential to contribute significantly to the national economy, society and the environment.
"It reflects Commonwealth government recognition that waste, and recycling goes beyond being an essential service to protect community hygiene and environmental health and that the government has an important role to play in developing this resource industry nationally. Like it has done for other resource sectors such as mineral resources, energy, water and agriculture," Reid said.
She added that the NWRIC, reinforced the need for systemic change that covering:
Markets – grow local and overseas markets for quality recovered materials; by enabling greater substitution of virgin materials with recovered material in construction, packaging, products and agriculture; establishing nationally agreed recovered material specifications
Energy Recovery – support the development of fuel production and energy recovery from non-recyclable waste such as organics, textiles and plastics
Best Practice – foster greater consistency in planning for and regulation of waste and recycling facilities nationally to provide certainty and improve quality of material recovery and waste management
Cleaner inputs – encourage greater separation of wastes at source to reduce contamination and pollution and to increase resource recovery and design out hazardous, non-recyclable and non-compostable materials and substances from products, packaging and construction materials.
The NWRIC considers that the major impediments to innovation are
limited markets for recovered materials locally and overseas,
lack of vision nationally on infrastructure needs to recover more resources, produce energy from waste and the safe disposal of non-recyclable waste to landfill
inconsistent energy recovery policies and commitment by state governments to waste as a suitable energy source
inconsistent collection methods across local and state governments
inconsistent regulations on waste and recycling activities between states and territories
Veolia's Danny Conlon told the Committee that the right technologies exist, but that Australia needs a better framework for the industry. He said regulation should be consistent, and there should be subsidies, levies, taxes on things that aren't recycled, and a ban on items going to landfill in some circumstances.
Conlon also told the committee that three jobs are created for every 10,000 tonnes of waste put into landfill, compared to nine jobs for the same amount recycled.
Inside Waste will give a comprehensive report on the submissions to the Committee in the August/September magazine.

KARACHI: Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan blamed India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for "whipping up war hysteria" over claims that India shot down a Pakistani F-16 during a standoff in February, saying the truth is always the best policy.
US-based Foreign Policy magazine, citing US officials, said all of Pakistan's F-16 combat jets had been accounted for, contradicting an Indian air force assessment that it had shot down one of the jets.
"The truth always prevails and is always the best policy," Khan said in a Tweet. "BJP's attempt to win elections through whipping up war hysteria and false claims of downing a Pak F 16 has backfired with US Defense officials also confirming that no F16 was missing from Pakistan's fleet."
The truth always prevails and is always the best policy. BJP's attempt to win elections through whipping up war hysteria and false claims of downing a Pak F 16 has backfired with US Defence officials also confirming that no F16 was missing from Pakistan's fleet.
— Imran Khan (@ImranKhanPTI) 6 April 2019
Nuclear-armed neighbors India and Pakistan engaged in an aerial battle over the disputed region of Kashmir a day after Indian jets crossed over into Pakistan to attack a suspected camp of anti-India militants.
An Indian jet was brought down during the fight and its pilot captured when he ejected on the Pakistani side of the border. He was later released.
India said it too had shot down a Pakistani aircraft and the air force displayed pieces of a missile that it said had been fired by a Pakistani F-16 before it went down.
Foreign Policy said in a report published on Thursday two US defense officials with direct knowledge of the matter said US personnel had done a count of Pakistan's F-16s and found none missing.
Details of the India-Pakistan air engagement have not been fully provided by either side. If the US report turns out to be true, it would be a further blow to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who had said that India had taught Pakistan a lesson, ahead of elections next week.
The BJP is campaigning on a platform of tough national security, especially with regard to arch foe Pakistan. New Delhi blames Pakistan for stoking a 30-year revolt in Muslim-majority Kashmir but Islamabad denies any involvement.
The success of Indian air strikes on a camp of the Jaish-e-Mohammed militant group in northwestern Pakistan has also been thrown into doubt after satellite images showed little sign of damage.
High-resolution satellite images reviewed by Reuters last month showed that a religious school run by Jaish appeared to be still standing days after India said its warplanes had hit the militant group's training camp on the site and killed a large number of militants.
Pakistan closed its airspace amid the standoff but most commercial air traffic has since resumed and major airports have opened.
Pakistan offered to open one air route on Friday, an Indian government official said, without specifying details and declining to be named as the matter was not public.
An Air India official said on condition of anonymity that Pakistan has opened one of its 11 air routes, from the southern side, adding that the carrier began operations via this route on Friday.
"Pakistan has opened one air route over India on April 4th, it is a north-west bound route," Mujtaba Baig, spokesman for Pakistan's Civil Aviation Authority, told Reuters on Saturday.
An email sent to the Indian Directorate General of Civil Aviation was not immediately answered. Air India did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

Iran deal architect among veterans named for Biden State Department /node/1793786/world
WASHINGTON: The lead US negotiator of the Iran nuclear accord and a battle-tested hawk on Russia were named Saturday to top posts at President-elect Joe Biden's State Department, signaling a return to normal after Donald Trump's chaotic presidency.
Wendy Sherman, who brokered the Iran accord under Barack Obama and negotiated a nuclear deal with North Korea under Bill Clinton, was named as deputy secretary of state.
Victoria Nuland, a former career diplomat best known for her robust support for Ukrainian protesters in the ouster of a Russian-aligned president, was nominated under secretary for political affairs — the State Department's third-ranking post in charge of day-to-day US diplomacy.
Biden said that the State Department nominees "have secured some of the most defining national security and diplomatic achievements in recent memory."
"I am confident that they will use their diplomatic experience and skill to restore America's global and moral leadership. America is back," Biden said in a statement.
The State Department team will work under secretary of state-designate Antony Blinken, whose confirmation hearing will take place on Tuesday on the eve of Biden's inauguration.
Blinken said that the State Department team, with women and ethnic minorities in prominent positions, "looks like America."
"America at its best still has a greater capacity than any other country on earth to mobilize others to meet the challenges of our time," Blinken said.
The optimism comes amid rising doubts about US leadership in Trump's waning days after his supporters ransacked the Capitol on January 6 to try to stop the ceremonial certification of Biden's victory.
Under outgoing Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, a staunch defender of Trump, the United States has aggressively challenged Iran and China, robustly backed Israel and toyed with improving ties with Russian President Vladimir Putin, while also imposing sanctions on Moscow.
Sherman's nomination marks another clear sign that Biden wants to return to the accord under which Iran drastically slashed its nuclear program in exchange for promises of sanctions relief.
Trump exited the deal in 2018 and imposed sweeping sanctions in what many observers saw as an unsuccessful attempt to topple the Shiite clerical regime.

Q: Select all entities which do not have children -- getting a lot of rows back, is this correct? I've got 84,000 rows in my Users table. Users are created automatically. So, I thought it would be nice to see how many users actually did anything after being created. I wrote this query:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Users u
JOIN Folders f ON UserId = u.Id
JOIN Playlists p ON FolderId = f.Id
WHERE 0 = (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM PlaylistItems WHERE PlaylistId = p.Id)

My intent is to only count users which have no playlist items in any of their playlists. This query returned 74,000 results which seems high.
I'm wondering if this query is selecting all users which have at least one playlist with no items in it. That is, if a user has two playlists -- one empty and one populated -- are they still counted in my query? And, if so, how can I modify it to select only users which have only empty playlists.
If that's vastly more difficult then I might try my hand at counting only users with 1 playlist which is empty.
The database structure is:

*

*Many users. 1:1 user:folder, 1:many folder:playlists, 1:many playlists:playlistItems

A: A better pattern than counting every single playlist and comparing is simply finding all the users who don't have anything in any playlist. I like NOT EXISTS for this:
SELECT COUNT(u.Id)
  FROM dbo.Users AS u
  WHERE NOT EXISTS
  (
    SELECT 1 FROM dbo.PlayLists AS pl
     INNER JOIN dbo.PlayListItems AS pli
     ON pl.id = pli.PlayListID
     INNER JOIN dbo.Folders AS f
     ON p.FolderID = f.ID
     WHERE f.UserID = u.Id
  );

As an aside, calling a column Id in its primary table and something else everywhere else might seem like a good idea, but I find it quite confusing. Why isn't a FolderID called a FolderID everywhere in the data model?

A: Break down your query:
SELECT u.id, COUNT(*) FROM Users u
JOIN Folders f ON UserId = u.Id
JOIN Playlists p ON FolderId = f.Id
join  PlaylistItems on PlaylistId = p.Id
group by u.id

This should provide you with a list of all users and the count of the number of rows in playlists by userID.  a couple ways to go...
Take a count of all users not in that list:
select count(*) from users where id not in (SELECT u.id FROM Users u
JOIN Folders f ON UserId = u.Id
JOIN Playlists p ON FolderId = f.Id
join  PlaylistItems on PlaylistId = p.Id
group by u.id)

MySQL performs poorly on that...same thing using left join:
 select count(*)
from   users u left join  (SELECT u.id, COUNT(*) FROM Users u
JOIN Folders f ON UserId = u.Id
JOIN Playlists p ON FolderId = f.Id
join  PlaylistItems on PlaylistId = p.Id
group by u.id)a
on a.id = u.id
where a.id is null

Adam Harvey: Highway One Tour with special guest Raechel Whitchurch.
Highly acclaimed Australian country music artist Adam Harvey announces the release of his new single "Ramblin' Fever" and the much anticipated Highway One Tour.
Coinciding with the release of the song which is the second single from Adam's forthcoming album "SONGS FROM HIGHWAY ONE", Adam has also announced his Highway One Tour. Beginning in February 2021 directly after his annual pilgrimage to the Tamworth Country Music Festival, Adam has put together a schedule of tour dates that add up to become the largest solo tour he has ever undertaken. Adam will perform over 40 shows across NSW, ACT, VIC, QLD and SA from February to September 2021.
The first single "Highway Number One" was released in March of this year quickly reaching the #1 chart position on iTunes and notching up over 100,000 streams. After the initial success of the song, Adam decided to postpone the scheduled album release and tour due to the COVID19 crisis. Having made the decision to wait, Adam is looking forward to getting on the road again to perform, bringing back his much loved music to eager live audiences.
Joining Adam on the extensive national tour is Raechel Whitchurch, a multi-talented singer-songwriter and musician who grew up performing in her family's travelling band The Lees. Now an accomplished solo artist, Raechel is excited to be joining Adam on the road as the opening act and performing her new music live onstage.
"SONGS FROM HIGHWAY ONE" will be released at the Tamworth Country Music Festival in January 2021 featuring songs about places, people and events, initially inspired by watching a television show about the huge rise in caravan and campervan sales across Australia.
Adam said, "I have been lucky enough to travel across this beautiful country for 25 years, and I was really excited to see that so many other people of all ages are getting to experience the amazing feeling and freedom of being on the road."
Adam has won eight Golden Guitar awards, achieved Gold and Platinum sales and has sold over half a million albums. He was also awarded the CMA Global Artist Award in Nashville and is the recipient of a Centenary Medal in recognition of his charity work.
After a lengthy time away from the road, the ever-popular Adam is raring to go with the "SONGS FROM HIGHWAY ONE" tour featuring the new songs, many of his classic hits as well as Adam's engaging and entertaining stories from his travels around the country.

Pulitzer Prize-winning American playwright and actor Sam Shepard's family drama, Curse of the Starving Class, directed by Sylvaine Strike and starring an impressive cast, comes to the Baxter Flipside stage, for a limited season, from 15 to 27 October, at 7.30pm.
Set on an avocado and sheep farm in Southern California, the Tate family is headed up by a drunken father, Weston (performed by McCarthy); a burnt-out mother, Ella (played by Henriques); a rebellious adolescent daughter, Emma (Crafford-Lazarus) and a broken, but idealistic son, Wesley (Roberto Pombo). Each is entrenched in their own futile search for freedom, security and ultimate meaning in their lives. They seem to have become victims of a pathological carelessness, which permeates their DNA, their every move. They live their lives with a reckless abandon that is indicative of having nothing left to lose.
The outside world, in the form of a creepy lawyer, Taylor; a nightclub owner, Ellis; and 2 weird hit men (played by van Vuuren, Coleman and Berry) bleeds into the family home, through the broken door, but Weston as the head of the family, fails to protect his brood from conmen and predators. The symbol of a sick lamb with maggots kept in the kitchen suggests the blurring of order, while Emma desperately and unsuccessfully attempts to flee, screaming into an empty fridge that her family is not part of the starving class.
Sam Shepard's powerful play continues to reflects a universal brilliance in an increasingly collapsing world. Now more than ever, relevant in its portrayal of a dysfunctional family on the brink of financial despair struggling for control of their rundown family farm. In the play conflict almost always revolves around identity, often suggesting that land defines who we are. A hilarious, bold, funny and unsettling production.

by Heavy Music Headquarters Staff/
As we bring 2018 to a close, it was another strong year for heavy metal. From young upstarts to grizzled veterans, the year saw a varied group of bands making an impact. There were some surprises, some disappointments, and a lot of great music. Here are our choices for 2018's Best Heavy Metal Albums.
Agrimonia – Awaken (Southern Lord)
Author & Punisher – Beastland (Relapse)
Between The Buried And Me – Automata I and II (Sumerian)
Boss Keloid – Melted On The Inch (Holy Roar)
Cancer – Shadow Gripped (Peaceville)
Eagle Twin – The Thundering Heard (Southern Lord)
Eigenlicht – Self-Annihilating Consciousness (I, Voidhanger/Gilead)
Fire Down Below – Hymn Of The Cosmic Man (Ripple)
Haken – Vektor (InsideOut)
Khemmis – Desolation (20 Buck Spin)
Mantar – The Modern Art Of Setting Ablaze (Nuclear Blast)
Mournful Congregation – The Incubus Of Karma (20 Buck Spin)
Monotheist – Scourge (Prosthetic)

Rivers Of Nihil – Where Owls Know My Name (Metal Blade)
Satan – Cruel Magic (Metal Blade)
Skinless – Savagery (Relapse)
Vein – Errorzone (Closed Casket)
Witch Mountain – Witch Mountain (Svart)
Weathermaker Music
20. Clutch – Book Of Bad Decisions (Weathermaker)
Clutch's twelfth studio album, Book of Bad Decisions, much like the band's touring schedule, is relentless. They used vintage equipment and a very raw, spontaneous, unrefined approach to the sessions, to give us an album that sounds as though we're sitting right in the room with the band as they jam through these tracks with wanton abandon.
Length aside, Book of Bad Decisions is yet another standout album in the Clutch catalog, full of memorable riffs and crazy lyrics. The fat, warm sound and the raw, somewhat out of control playing lend the album an undeniable charm. Fans of the band will revel in this approach: Book of Bad Decisions sounds as live as a studio album can.
19. Hate Eternal – Upon Desolate Sands (Season Of Mist)
For two decades now, Hate Eternal have delivered consistently good death metal. And while their music has been consistent, their lineup has been a bit more fluid. That's the case for their latest opus Upon Desolate Sands, which features new drummer Hannes Grossman (Triptykon, Blotted Science).
Erik Rutan's guitar and production prowess are well established, and that continues on Upon Desolate Souls. Crushing heaviness prevails, combining oppressive and dense sections with groovier, driving riffs and periodic shredding solos. Rutan's death growls are straightforward but effective. The arrangements are creative, and subtle atmospheric touches on songs such as the title track add depth to the extremity.
Loma Vista
18. Ghost – Prequelle (Loma Vista)
Even though they are more of a rock band, Ghost have been fully embraced by metal fans. Their potent live shows, visual imagery and lyrical themes are right in the wheelhouse of metal fans, while Ghost's music is catchy hard rock with a '70s and '80s vibe. Their fourth studio album Prequelle may be their catchiest release so far.
Tobias Forge, now going by Cardinal Copia, along with the Nameless Ghouls, have dialed down the occult rock while amping up the melodies on tracks like "Rats." Ghost still sound ominous and have some occult rock moments, but bring the prog on instrumentals "Helvetesfonster" and "Miasma" (which has a sax solo and pays homage to Michael Jackson's "Beat It") along with pop sensibilities on several songs including "See The Light" and the '80s tinged "Danse Macabre." The 9 tracks are diverse and memorable, more appropriate for singing along to than headbanging, but undeniably enjoyable and surprisingly uplifting.
17. Horrendous – Idol (Season Of Mist)
Philadelphia death metal collective Horrendous are back with album number four, Idol, and a lot of hype to live up to. Much like the bands they have drawn comparisons to, Horrendous have also become markedly more progressive. Horrendous are evolving and it is quite fun to see where they are taking their sound.
Idol might not be the band's most accessible album, but for seasoned death metal fans, this will be a fun album to dissect and hear each and every influence for what they are to Horrendous and how they sound on Idol as a whole. Horrendous are a different band who are able to let their influences seamlessly into their music, none of it feels put on. This is a death metal album for death metal fans, by death metal fans.
16. High on Fire – Electric Messiah (eOne)
To Lemmy with love. Oakland's buzz arsonists High on Fire send a farewell note to Mr. Kilmister, anointing him Electric Messiah. In the tent-pole song "Electric Messiah," pseudo-soundalike Matt Pike leads his trio through one of HOF's finest single since "Frosthammer." Electric Messiah is an excellent addition to the HOF canon.
The decades-long consistency is carried on, with producer Kurt Ballou allowing a slightly rawer, slightly more relaxed sound to temper the usual wall-to-wall decibel derby. Dynamics sneak around the outer edges of the frontal attack, especially in Des Kensel's Tama tantrums. "Sanctioned Annihilation," "The Pallid Mask" and the intriguing "The Drowning Dog" are highlights to a collection that owes its heart to the Ace of Spades.
15. Visigoth – Conqueror's Oath (Metal Blade)
Conqueror's Oath is Visigoth's followup to 2015's highly successful The Revenant King, an album of heroic metal that drew heavily from bands like Grand Magus and Cirith Ungol. Not wanting to mess with a good thing, Visigoth repeat this formula here.
It's hard to find much to dislike in this collection of well-written, infinitely enjoyable anthems, primarily dealing with warriors, traitors and conquerors. "Salt City" stands out as an odd duck, but is an homage to the band's Utah base, so can be forgiven. The drums could also use a bit more punch, but other than that Conqueror's Oath is a traditional metal tour de force.
14. Hamferd – Tamsins Iikam (Metal Blade)
Hamferð, are self-proclaimed purveyors of Faroese doom metal. Támsins likam (Body of the Mist) is Hamferð's conclusion of a conceptual trilogy that began with an EP in 2010 and 2013's full length album Evst. Musically, this is one of the most exquisitely produced and performed albums you will hear this year.
Hamferð have released a perfect doom album. With outstanding performances from every band member, fantastic songwriting and production that ties everything together seamlessly, Támsins likam is a tour de force for the band, and places them firmly at the forefront of the genre. Faroese doom metal is here to stay.
13. Khorada – Salt (Prophecy)
Many mourned the end of Agalloch, who split up in 2016 after a two decade run that saw them release several outstanding albums. Just a couple of years later, three quarters of the band (guitarist Don Anderson, bassist Jason Walton and drummer Aesop Dekker) have teamed up with ex-Giant Squid vocalist/guitarist Aaron Gregory to form Khorada. Salt is their debut album.
While the DNA of both Agalloch and Giant Squid are evident, Khorada also blaze their own trail. The lengthy songs give them plenty of room to move between styles, tempos and textures. Tracks like "Seasons Of Salt" are sometimes urgent and aggressive, other times deliberate and reserved. There's push and pull throughout, with a thread of melancholy keeping it cohesive. Nearly bottomless depth and obvious emotion make it easy to immediately grasp onto, but it takes longer to fully absorb everything Khorada are doing on their engaging debut album.
12. Deafheaven – Ordinary Corrupt Human Love (Anti-)
Deafheaven's Ordinary Corrupt Human Love is no ordinary corrupt human rehash of that dim swamp of today's black metal. Where most bands are contemptuous of change for fear of riling their fan base that demands the comforts of bandsaw vocals and cut-out chaos, Deafheaven break the oldie molds with the finest metal-based music presently available.
Polarization is the keystone of art. Ordinary Corrupt Human Love is art, and a messy millennial masterpiece of genre-collision and unique vision. It's apparent that Deafheaven are an art metal band that ignores the norms of comfort. Their art is not always highbrow and other times it may get post-modern obscure, but all that matters is the music and where it takes you. Deafheaven are limited only by sky and disdain for mediocrity.
11. KEN Mode – Loved (Season Of Mist)
Canada's noise-rock veterans KEN Mode are back with their seventh album, Loved. After issuing some outtakes on 2016's Nerve EP, the band delivers what promises to be a darker, heavier album, and they come through with nine furious blasts of unnerving chaos. Production is handled by Andrew Schneider (Cult of Luna, Converge) rather than Steve Albini, and the sound is as raw as the emotion.
Loved is 36 minutes of unbridled aggression. The first eight songs never let up, with atonal guitar work, wonderfully obnoxious drum sounds, and Jesse Matthewson spitting fantastic lyrics with a maniacal rage. The only respite from this acerbic devastation comes in the first few minutes of album closer "No Gentle Art," making Loved an exhausting but engaging listen.
10. Immortal – Northern Chaos Gods (Nuclear Blast)
Immortal return as a two piece with Northern Chaos Gods, featuring Demonaz on guitars and vocals and Horgh on drums. There are various callbacks to Battles In The North on tracks like album closer "Mighty Ravendark" and "Gates To Blashyrkh," both of which refer to when the band was a different two piece (Abbath and Demonaz). This feels very much like what Immortal had set out to play from day one; black metal with the chill of Norwegian ice and an epic battle playing out in front of you.
This album stands alone as a fine moment and return for one of the genre's absolute cornerstone bands. It is hard not to compare to what this band was with what it now is and grade it on its own individual merit. All things considered, this is a very good black metal album in 2018 regardless of who recorded it. If you never got into the '90s edition of Immortal, this should serve as a primer for what helped establish the band in the first place. Here's to new beginnings!
9. Amorphis – Queen Of Time (Nuclear Blast)
If you look up "multifaceted" in the metal dictionary, you just might see a picture of Finnish stalwarts Amorphis. Loosely based on the idea of empires and civilizations rising and falling, Queen of Time is a collection of epic songs in the truest sense of the word. Every single cut on this ten song album is slathered in layers of instrumentation, giving the impression of massive, cinematic spectacle.
Each song is immaculately arranged, and show Amorphis to be a band that defies a single genre label. Melodeath, folk, power and progressive metal are all on full display throughout, often interwoven seamlessly within a single song. Amorphis gave us a gem with Under the Red Cloud, and on Queen of Time they have upped the ante in almost every way imaginable, delivering an engaging, thoroughly entertaining album that shows us they are the one of the most well-rounded and capable bands in the metal scene.
8. Sleep – The Sciences (Third Man)
Sleep shocked the metal world by dropping the surprise The Sciences, their first new album in 15 years. During the early '90s, Sleep along with Kyuss made it okay to worship Black Sabbath and helped to spearhead the stoner metal music scene. Some of these songs have been played live by the band before and are not exactly new, but when you hear studio versions of "Sonic Titan" and "Antarticans Thawed" you would swear they flow on this album like they belonged there the entire time.
The Sciences is the album fans have waited a long time for and does not disappoint. It has all the elements that made the band's prior work so iconic and helped to launch a million reefer and riff soaked bands. Sleep made this style of music popular again and in their nearly 30 years of existence few would argue against that fact. This is the album no one knew existed, no one knew they needed, yet everyone wanted in 2018.
Century Media Records
7. Voivod – The Wake (Century Media)
The Wake is the first full-length Voivod album to feature Dominque "Rocky" Laroche on bass, and the chemistry between the three musicians (including Michel "Away" Langevin on drums) really works throughout. If there's one theme that defines The Wake, it would be experimentation – something the band is already well known for. Here they take it further in some areas, not just in the songwriting and arrangements but also Denis "Snake" Belanger's vocals.
Overall, Voivod have released a stellar album, featuring the band members firing on all cylinders, solid songwriting, excellent vocals, and a welcome sense of adventure. It's fantastic to listen to one of Canada's most influential metal bands push their boundaries this far into their career.
6. Judas Priest – Firepower (Epic)
Metal gods Judas Priest have been putting out albums since 1974, and their legacy is untouchable. Firepower is Judas Priest's 18th studio album. Rob Halford's voice continues to defy age, with low register menace and upper register screams sounding as potent as ever.
Add in the usual excellent lead breaks from old-timer Glenn Tipton and relative newcomer Richie Faulkner (a member since 2011), some heavy riffing, and the rock-solid rhythm section of Ian Hill on bass and Scott Travis behind the kit, and we've got a band firing on all cylinders throughout Firepower. It's remarkable, really. Judas Priest have still managed to deliver an electric, vital album that surpasses anything they've released in nearly 30 years. Firepower is the band's best record since Painkiller.
5. Tribulation – Down Below (Century Media)
Tribulation came out of the gate swinging in 2018 with Down Below, the successor to critical darling Children of the Night. Gone are the days of death metal for this band, in its stead are riffs and a dark atmosphere shows the band rocking while amply embracing the dark side. Johannes Andersson's gruff vocal approach comes off as though he is a member of the undead coming to greet you and act as Virgil to your Dante.
Tribulation have crafted an exceptional album that follows a great one in its own right. They have carved themselves a niche that is tough to duplicate; much like Cloak's To Venomous Depths did in 2017.
4. The Ocean – Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic (Metal Blade)
Phanerozoic I is a master class in vocal production, and marrying the voice to the feel and intention of the song, but that's not to take anything away from the other five members of the band. From beginning to end we're treated with fantastic songwriting that keeps pace with the musicality these guys bring. Unlike Pelagial, which was one extended suite, these songs stand on their own.
Progressive post metal doesn't get any better than The Ocean, and they once again prove themselves to be the leaders of the genre with Phanerozoic I: Palaeozoic. Distilling the best elements of bands like Neurosis, Cult of Luna, and (this time, anyhow) Katatonia, and combining those elements in impeccably arranged and produced songs, gives us one of the strongest albums of the year.
Prosthetic Records
3. Skeletonwitch – Devouring Radiant Light (Prosthetic)
Skeleltonwitch have had a few lineup changes over their 15-year career, but none shook the band's fan base more than the departure of original vocalist Chance Garnette in 2015. With Wolvhammer vocalist Adam Clemans taking the helm for Devouring Radiant Light, external expectations of how Clemans would fit into Garnette's role added on to the five year wait between this album and their last one.
There's an undeniable drive from Skeletonwitch on Devouring Radiant Light, as if they had something to prove not only to those hesitant after Garnette's departure, but to show that they didn't have to just play the same music with a new vocalist copied and pasted in. Clemans has a different vocal style than Garnette, but his wicked rasps quickly find their place in Skeletonwitch's ever-changing formula. It may have taken a decade and a half for the band to start taking significant risks, but Devouring Radiant Light proves a gateway into what could be a prosperous period ahead.
20 Buck Spin
2. Tomb Mold – Manor of Infinite Forms (20 Buck Spin)
Tomb Mold have been prolific in their short time as a group, already releasing multiple demos and a full-length in the span of two years. Manor of Infinite Forms is a continuation of this proficiency, which hasn't dimmed the group's gritty death metal flame. The seven versatile songs on their second album crackle with crooked tempos and an unwelcoming demeanor.
The ragged momentum of Manor of Infinite Forms is propelled in part by drummer/vocalist Max Klebanoff. His sadistic growls and schizophrenic drum performance give the other members a path to follow along in the insanity. Closer "Two Worlds Become One," with its low-key acoustic intro and death/doom pacing, is a top-notch finish to the album.
1. Yob – Our Raw Heart (Relapse)
Yob's miraculous, magnificent Our Raw Heart is the kind of album that will turn the sun dim and have you repeatedly return for the experience. Yob have taken it beyond the thunderstorms that they have left in their wake on previous outings and summoned yet a grander storm that pounds with greater fury and a more refined, heart-churning focus.
Reaching in deeply to wrench its chest open toward a violent sky, Yob expose its raw heart to roar back at the latest storm, to become fragile in the power of thunderheads and lightning. Vocalist Mike Scheidt gives strength to that fragility, though, scorching through the reverb and rancor on tracks like "In Reverie" to put wrong in its place by voicing its common horror. Yob tower over other doom bands, and it is a rare achievement to take a genre with the strictures and restraints of doom and yank out beauty unmatched. It earns the honor of our number one album of 2018.

Sunflowers remind backyard farmer 'Trouble don't last always' - Clarksville Leaf Chronicle
Porter grew up gardening with his mother as a young boy, and it's become a lifestyle ever since.His youngest daughter, Carolyn Dyson, has long memories of that garden, on Dale Terrace in north Clarksville."It was mostly Dad doing the gardening growing up, but it always put a smile on Mom's face," she said.Buy PhotoMarvin Porter poses for a portrait in front of his sunflowers with his daughters Carolyn Dyson, left, and Juanita Porter, right. (Photo: Erica Brechtelsbauer/The Leaf-Chronicle)For the past six years, Porter has been growing the tallest sunflowers in town. Walkers and drivers pause and gaze at the majestic flowers with their bright big yellow bulbs. This year, he grew his tallest yet — a 14-foot beauty.Even with his success, Porter admits this year is different. He didn't have his "Doll Baby," his wife Irene, by his side.

Irene recently passed away, but the couple was married for 54 years.

They're so beautiful," said Porter.When the family was deciding what to include on Irene Porter's memorial, it seemed appropriate to have sunflowers engraved on her tombstone.

Michigan Floral Association is now Great Lakes Floral Association - PerishableNews
You may or may not have noticed a change; the Michigan Floral Association is now doing business as the Great Lakes Floral Association (GLFA). Nothing has changed except for the name. Our mission statement has dropped the word Michigan but otherwise remains the same: To provide education and professional partnerships to advance business and position our colleagues at the forefront of the floral industry.The idea for a name change first emerged at last years strategic planning meeting. The Board of Directors wanted to be more welcoming and more inclusive to anyone in our region who would like to become part of the association, hence the name change seamed logical. They were primarily thinking of those industry members to the south and east where retail floral education and professional industry partnerships are getting hard to find.As the Association moves forward into our second century we embrace change and look forward to welcoming industry members from near and far. Our goal is to make you feel welcome and part of the Great Lake... https://www.perishablenews.com/floral/michigan-floral-association-is-now-great-lakes-floral-association/
Field and Florist creates floral arrangements for freshness and sustainability - Chicago Reader
Field & florist, which opened in 2017 in a charming basement in Wicker Park on Division just east of Damen, grows its flowers on a 30-acre farm in southwest Michigan. Owners Heidi Joynt, 36, and Molly Kobelt, 32, say this land—surrounded by woods, vineyards, and blueberry fields—is the beating heart of their business. "Farm-to-table" isn't just for restaurants anymore. Joynt says she wanted customers to interact with regional growers who are also designers. "In today's economy of Amazon-available-anything, I think it's increasingly important to make these connections to gain a little insight into everything from the labor required to produce something to the necessary seasonality of flower varieties," Joynt says. "It's important to see the world as a complex web of interconnected systems." Field & Florist uses organic fertilizer made from cow manure, mushroom compost, and a mixture of fish emulsion and kelp spray, and avoids pesticides. "While the environment is idyllic, I would say that the farm itself probably doesn't look like what people imagine when the... https://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/field-and-florist-creates-floral-arrangements-for-freshness-sustainability/Content?oid=69018730

Athens," says Elisha Hodge, owner of Plumeria Botanical Boutique. "I didn't have a great high school experience and I never thought I would come back."Hodge graduated from Central Michigan University and took a job in banking and later in financial advising. She had a good job, a dog, and a home in Grand Blanc, but realized she wasn't happy with what she was doing."I had this heart and this spirit, but the world kind of steps on you at times and I learned to be quiet," Hodge says. A telephone call to her mother in Battle Creek set her life on a course she never expected to follow."I was calling my mother and she said you should come home," Hodge says. "My mom, my two sisters, their two families, and the rest of my family lives in Battle Creek. I don't have a relative outside of Battle Creek. For years they were asking me to come back."Hodge's mother, Sandy, had worked for more than 30 years at the Country Bouquet Flower Shop located on West Michigan Avenue in Urbandale. The owner of the flower shop was planning to sell the business and at her mother's urging, Elisha decided to throw caution to the wind. She put her house in Grand Blanc on the market."My mom said I could take my banking background and her florist background and we could buy this business," Hodge says. "When she mentioned it, I don't know if any of us thought she was serious."However, when Hodge's Grand Blanc home sold in two weeks, she took it as a sign and moved back in June 2015 to embark on a new career as a business owner. She lived that summer in her sister's basement and interned at the flower shop, putting her energy into learning about everything from how to order flowers, to arranging, to delivering."I made a business plan and researched the market and did what I could to see if I could make this work," Hodge says.

In total, there are 12 global ICC commissions accessible to the professionals of the selected Belgian companies. Indulging yourself to join an ICC commission is opening the gate for a unique source of information and the opportunity to join, on a voluntary basis, groundbreaking initiatives in trade policy or rule setting. Each member company or association pays a yearly membership fee that allows an unlimited number of collaborators to join any ICC global commission. Each commission is active in rule setting and policy. While a considerable work is done with members online, the meetings of each commission are an invaluable opportunity for networking among peers from all over the world.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: SAM WILSON #8 [Review]
04-22-16 Brandon Griffin
CAPTAIN AMERICA: SAM WILSON #8/ Written by NICK SPENCER/ Art by PAUL RENARD/ Colors by DONO SANCHEZ ALMARA/ Published by MARVEL COMICS
Right now the comic book world is littered with comebacks and rebirths, with probaly Batman #50 being the biggest one. Though, a close second may be the return of Steve Rogers as Captain America, marking the end of his time as 'Old Man Rogers, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.' And having both Bruce Wayne and Steve Rogers return to their old identities is crucial, not only because it makes their comics better, but the teams they are involved with a hell of a lot more interesting.
Captain America: Sam Wilson #8 follows the three most important men to ever carry the shield: Rogers, Sam Wilson, and Bucky Barnes. Having both Sam and Bucky there for the transition back to younger Rogers was a smart choice by writer Nick Spencer. The three of them together is delightful. They have great chemistry as a trio and have all had very different experiences as Captain America. Sam Wilson's run may not have been as epic or memorable Bucky's, but it has recently started picking up steam. I have a feeling there are some great Cap stories around the corner now that Rogers is restored as much younger man.
The story in Captain America: Sam Wilson #8 is the continuing arc of the "Pleasant Hill" crossover, which has been up and down but for the most part a lot of fun. This is the last issue before the big event's finale, which seems to be coming too quickly. The main problems holding back "Pleasant Hill" has been so many events and developments that weren't given enough time to breath. For instance, the concept behind the cosmic cube entity powering a prison where villains are tricked into being small town citizens is brilliant, and had there been more time allowed to explore the set up, maybe the events that followed would carry more weight.
Regardless, the story overall has been a pretty fun ride. The tea party trap that Kraven sets for Kobik is legitimately hilarious, mostly because it's Kraven. The end of the issue sets up the action-packed finale as the Avengers show up to help foil Zemo's plot and bail Maria Hill out of her terrible idea.
Everybody is looking for Kobik, the cosmic cube in the form of a little girl and who restored Steve to his youthful, super soldier self. Baron Zemo has sent his thugs – now led by Kraven The Hunter – searching for her, while "My Three Caps" begin their search as well. Along the way our heroes encounter some of the chaos scattered throughout Pleasant Hill, as Steve gets used to being powerful again. Yet the biggest problem with this issue is that all of the minor characters, both hero and villain, have almost no identity. It's a handful of Captain Americas, Zemo and his B-Squad compatriots, then a bunch of G.I. Joe-looking nobodies.
Other than the lazy design of the background characters, there is a ton to appreciate in this issue visually. Paul Renaud did wonders for Steve Roger's transformation and he really looks ready to hand out some justice. A stand out panel is the first shot of Steve Rogers sitting on a bench holding the shield as he processes what is happening, I really enjoyed that.
The amount of emotion and character Zemo communicates from under a hood is impressive, and it looks like he was a ton of fun to draw. Every panel in this book is easy to digest, nothing distracting readers away from the intended point of focus. One critique would be the lack of change to Bucky's facial expression, it's almost exactly the same in every panel beginning to end. A stand out panel is the first shot of Steve Rogers sitting on a bench holding the shield as he processes what is happening, I really enjoyed that.
Nick Spencer does a fine job keeping things interesting within the guidelines of this crossover event, while also tackling a significant character's return to form. I cannot wait to see how the other heroes react to Steve being back as Captain America and how he fits into the world again. And for that reason alone, this issue is well worth the read.
