USMCA approval in the United States faces more delays
Auto investment targeted by Ontario's new site selection challenge
Greg Layson
Ontario Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade Vic Fedeli says a new auto assembly plant would attract manufacturing investments and create thousands of jobs.
The Ontario government is launching a U.S.-style initiative designed to attract new auto and parts assembly to the province.
A trio of high-profile cabinet ministers unveiled the Job Site Challenge on Thursday in Woodstock at the Toyota plant, the province's newest auto factory, which opened in 2008.
The Job Site Challenge, which the provincial government calls a Canadian first, invites municipalities, economic development agencies and industrial property owners to propose mega sites for new investment. The province is looking for large tracts of land between 500 to 1,500 acres that are already zoned, or could be zoned, for heavy industrial use. The sites should be serviced or serviceable by utilities, transportation networks and other support infrastructure.
"The Job Site Challenge is modelled on mega site programs that have helped several U.S. jurisdictions, like New York, Tennessee, Alabama and other states, to attract large-scale investments to build auto or other advanced-manufacturing plants," the province said in a statement.
Flavio Volpe, president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers Association, said any competing jurisdiction in the United States and Mexico already comes forward with a mega site when automakers and suppliers are looking to build.
"The challenge is that site selectors who don't come from Ontario or have no loyalty to the province will say 'you have an incomplete proposal,'" Volpe said. "And not having one in your proposal means you aren't in the second round of talks."
That means manufacturers ultimately choose the United States or Mexico for their plants, he said.
Volpe said automakers and suppliers "aren't looking for free land." They are looking for solid proposals, which, he said, should include sound site options.
"Now, we're doing the homework for the site selector. We're the real estate agent," he said of government officials. "This costs no taxpayer money, other than administrative costs to get the program running."
Municipalities and developers will be the ones offering up the insight and location suggestions.
Potential mega sites will be evaluated based on 13 criteria. An internationally recognized site selector will endorse and validate sites for inclusion in the inventory of certified mega sites. Ontario and the site selector will then lead a marketing campaign to showcase these selected sites to international and domestic investors. The first shovel-ready sites are expected to be made available to investors in fall 2020.
But will it work?
"I'll answer that with a question," Volpe said. "Is there any way it will work without it?"
Volpe said there are several auto investments afoot.
"But I'm not sure of the stage of maturity of those plans," he said.
There are several brownfield sites across the province, which has been shedding auto manufacturing jobs for a decade. But Volpe said the new United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement should level the playing field and make Ontario more attractive.
"With the dynamics of the USMCA, Ontario and the U.S. are looking more attractive than Mexico. Investments have been stalled or cancelled in Mexico," he said.
Volpe said Ontario has several qualified sites between Windsor and Toronto, including Chatham and St. Thomas.
"If you're a community between Windsor and Toronto, and you land an auto plant, you're landing an MLB franchise," he said. "It's a $2-billion local investment and $10 billion in supplier purchases every year.
"Everyone has a chance here."
Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers' Association President Mark Nantais, whose association represents the Detroit Three in Canada, wasn't immediately available for comment. Neither was David Adams, who heads the Global Automakers of Canada, which represents the interests of most of the other automakers in Canada.

Taxing Tuesday: A Conundrum -- How to Tax Retired Folks When That's What You've Got a Lot of
Because they're getting to be a bigger part of the population.
WSJ: How Do You Tax a Baby Boomer?
The problem with old people is that they eventually stop working. This intractable reality normally bubbles into our political consciousness as we contemplate government spending on retirement benefits. Now at long last the implications for tax policy are also coming into focus, thanks to the unlikely duo of Elizabeth Warren and Japan.
Developed economies have evolved tax systems that rely disproportionately on labor income as their tax base — even as their working populations grow more slowly or shrink. This is true in the U.S., where the personal income tax furnishes some 34% of overall government revenues each year and payroll taxes on wages provide a further 23%. It's true in Japan, where social-insurance payroll taxes account for 40% of annual revenue and the personal income tax another 19%.
Doing the math, that comes to 57% of revenue.
It's the case in countries that also impose hefty value-added taxes on consumption. Germany, France, Italy — all still raise more than half of their revenue from labor-based taxes. The imbalance persists despite two decades of a modest retreat from labor taxation in developed economies that has seen personal-income and payroll taxes decline to 50.1% of revenue from 53.2%, according to the Tax Foundation.
Even when old people do have taxable income, the thrust of retirement policy for decades has been to skew the tax base away from their income. Incentives that defer income tax on contributions to retirement accounts are effective precisely because for most people the marginal rate they pay on that income in retirement is lower than the marginal rate they pay when they're working.
What this means for the future can best be described by a simple equation: No workers equals no tax revenue.
It also means a lot of other things as well.
There are three possible solutions to this dilemma. One is to tax the fewer remaining working people more heavily. That way lies an economic and moral quagmire. Governments have spent the past generation cutting personal income-tax rates because they realized that too-high taxes suffocate economic growth. Can they afford to pay a low-growth price for raising rates again?
One also has to ask why future generations of workers should be forced to pay a higher proportion of the fruits of their labors to fund benefits for old-timers who refused to raise their own taxes or to reform benefits.
Expect more of this.
The second option is to tax the things old people actually do. That list includes spending, saving and dying. Let the games begin.
Start in Japan, which is on the cusp of increasing its consumption tax yet again, to 10% from 8% starting Oct. 1. Veteran Japan watchers recognize how foolish this is. Every previous increase to the tax, going back to its introduction in 1989, has been politically unpopular and economically destructive. The last one, to 8% from 5% in 2014, smashed consumer spending and plunged the world's third-largest economy into a recession.
I am watching what is happening in Japan — or, rather, Stu is watching and letting me know if there's anything I can use. [He generally watches news on NHK every day]
Outsiders are mystified that Prime Minister Shinzo Abe persists with the tax hike anyway, but Tokyo is running out of alternatives. Japan is a rapidly aging country. As Japanese workers retire at an accelerating rate, not only do they consume more public spending in the form of a pension and health-care bill expected to hit 190 trillion yen ($1.8 trillion) annually by 2040. They also pay less income tax. A consumption tax is what's left.
By the way, Japan is not only aging rapidly, it is shrinking in population.
I've kept a thread on aging and shrinking populations at the Actuarial Outpost, and, unsurprisingly, Japan was my first entry five years ago.
The other thing old people tend to do is save, which is where Ms. Warren comes in. Her wealth tax — a 2% annual charge on fortunes larger than $50 million — starts with the superrich but won't end there. It can't, as labor taxation over time provides less and less funding for the left's spending priorities.
This column has previously scoffed at Ms. Warren's college-subsidy ploy to woo younger voters, but it isn't entirely sarcastic to suggest millennials have more reason to support Ms. Warren's wealth-tax gimmick. For all its destructive flaws, she's a Baby Boomer who at least might one day be willing to tax her own generation to pay for their Social Security and Medicare tabs. President Trump conspicuously lacks a better idea.
This is dumb. While older folks – at the moment they retire – tend to have more money than younger folks… the oldest folks do not necessarily have more assets because, get this, they're spending down their assets as retirement income.
I have an idea: cut benefits.
Oh, the third option for solving this dilemma? It's cutting entitlement payouts so the old-age programs make smaller demands on the shrinking labor tax base. You know how this idea fares politically.
These generational fiscal realities present today's baby boomers, and especially Republican boomers, with a stark choice. They'll have to pay for their entitlements one way or another. They can do it by reforming the programs to reduce their benefit checks to an affordable level, or they can roll over and accept the sort of left-wing, European-style taxation they claim to hate.
It's a tension that will be on display if President Trump — elected in 2016 on a promise never, ever, ever to touch Social Security or Medicare — finds himself on a debating stage with Ms. Warren in 2020.
Get used to less.
Or take up BASE jumping. And get used to a shorter, but more exciting, lifetime.
I understand that it is not politically popular to cut benefits, but there are multiple things that can (and have) been done. Such as: don't call it cutting benefits… call it taxing benefits!
The idiocy of the above is assuming that it's merely the boomers, who are all Republicans [that is implicit in the piece], are anti-European-level taxes. Not that younger folks would object. Or that non-Republicans would object.
Well, how would one explain the level of shit about to hit Chicago politicians over the need to raise taxes way high just to cover the underpayment of pensions they're already at. Chicagoans are not known for being a hotbed of Republican activity, at least, not for at least a century.
Which goes to the next item: how do governments currently tax retired folks? Property tax and sales tax. They're both types of consumption taxes, kind of.
TAXING FOOD IN CONNECTICUT
Well, this one hits close to home. I just found out about it on Friday, when a co-worker shared details with me. Unlike her, I have wider choices, because I live so far from work. I don't have to buy food in CT.
Prepared food tax will hit consumers harder than lawmakers thought
A controversial tax hike on prepared foods will hit Connecticut shoppers much harder than legislators thought, raking in $158 million over this fiscal year and next — nearly 40% more than lawmakers anticipated.
That's a feature, not a bug.
The tax hike was described — when legislators adopted a new state budget in early June — largely as a 1% surcharge on restaurant food or on "prepared meals." In other words, someone who purchased a grinder and small soda combination, even at a supermarket, would pay 7.35% sales tax, rather than the base rate of 6.35%.
That's not really unusual, and we have something like that in NY.
And again, by emphasizing the 1%, they see it as a smaller impact than it really is.
1% on top of 6.35% is a 16% increase in the tax rate.
Yet when DRS released a policy statement this month instructing retailers on how to apply the new tax, which takes effect Oct. 1, it covered a much wider range of prepared foods.
Smaller quantities of prepared foods subject to the new tax include:
Soup sold in containers holding eight ounces or less
Popsicles and ice cream cones sold individually
Popcorn, kettle corn and nuts served heated
Pizza, cake and pie, if sold by the slice
Loose cookies, if less than five are sold at one time
Lettuce or greens-based salads in containers of eight ounces or less
Hot dogs served heated or on a bun
Frozen deserts of less than one pint
Doughnuts, muffins, rolls bagels and pastries if five or fewer are sold at one time
Cooked chicken sold by the piece, and whole cooked chickens
The discussion in the office on Friday was about how single folks and old people would be hardest hit.
Connecticut retailers likely will be very diligent in applying the tax to any item that might be interpreted as prepared foods "when you have the grim reaper of DRS standing over your shoulder," Candelora said.
Democratic lawmakers and Lamont averted a multi-billion-dollar projected deficit in the two-year budget without increasing income tax rates, but Democrats said that meant making many tough decisions.
Such as raising taxes in a way that people didn't realize until they're just about to be applied. [the discussions I've heard over the plastic bag tax have been interesting]
As I write this, Stu is out in Peekskill with our oldest child, looking at the shopping opportunities out there to see if it makes sense switching to Peekskill instead of Danbury. Peekskill is a little farther away, but not really by much.
As for CT, their finances are not good, so I fully expect more tax increases. When it's sales and property taxes, it's fairly easy for me to dodge.

Because the only pertinent tax filings relevant to getting paid off to keep quiet I can think of would be those of the people who got paid, who would have to declare it as income. I don't think Trump would have been required to file a 1099, but I could be wrong about that.

Past a certain point of wealth, these folks know they have more money than they will ever need. More than they could ever spend or their children and grand children could ever spend. The question becomes what is it that drives them to hold on to it as if it is still scarce? https://t.co/ebKgyKbGwz
— Marco Rogers (@polotek) September 14, 2019
[It's not your money]
I think it's worth asking what happens to a person when they pass the point of scarcity. What if they still operate from that motivation. But instead the fear is twisted into a voracious and bottomless greed.
[It's still not your money]
I keep remembering the exchange I had with Bob Martin a while back. He claimed that for him, paying taxes felt like a deeply "personal" action. One that felt like sacrifice. And that fed into his reaction to what that sacrifice would be used for. https://t.co/gSEjpAQ3sI
[That's nice. It's not your money]
The thing is there are 2 ideas here. They are related, but they can be examined separately.
"Is the government doing a good job of redistributing resources"?
"Should forcibly collecting taxes be considered theft?"
No. It is part of a social contract.
People think taxation is theft because they don't actually subscribe to the notion of wealth redistribution as a necessary aspect of a free and capitalistic society.
I think I'm done with this person. Yes, I'm a bit jocular with the "taxation is theft" memes. I'm not totally serious with that.
But other people's money does not belong to me. It belongs to them. Getting piggy about taking other people's money is theft, you can call it "redistribution" all you want.

Like we've said before (here & here), our kids love to build with Lego Duplos. They're perfect for little hands that can't quite manipulate the small Lego bricks.
They're also nice for families, like ours, with small children and babies sharing the same playing space on the floor.
The free Duplo Building Inspiration Busy Bag printable includes: directions, bag label, and 8 inspiration cards to help your kids start building independently.
You can also have your child make and photograph their own creations for some quiet time building inspiration.
What are some ways you help your young child develop logical reasoning? Leave a comment below.
know such designated approximately my problem. You are amazing!
Found you via Pinterest and I LOVE this idea! I'm not naturally very creative so it's hard for me to come up with stuff like this. I don't have a color printer and also our Duplo colors are a tiny bit different than yours so I made your creations with a few of my own variations. I took pictures of the ones I made and am getting them printed for free with a deal Rite Aid has running right now….so totally no cost for this whole project! I know my son is going to love this. Thank you so much!
I will definitely be making this. Thank you for sharing at Mom's Library!
How cute. Thanks for linking up to Mom's Library!
Do you store your Duplos in the busy bags or somewhere else?
We store our Duplos in the bin they came in (pictured in our post) and just give our kids the busy bag with the cards inside. They know to go and get the bin. You could also just hand them both the cards and the bin of Duplos.
Wow, these are so cool! My kids are going to love this! Thank you for sharing the idea and printables!
you totally read my mind!!! I've been wanting something like this for a while now, but couldn't find anything great online!! and I'm not that building creative.. 😉 and doubly awesome is that's the exact set we have too!! Thank you sooooo much!!!!
You're very welcome! I hope your family enjoys the building cards.

Lobster Pot Cottage Ideal Getaways in the Historic Heart of Whitby
4 Clarks Yard
Lobster Pot Cottage
A Rural Retreat
Getting to Whitby by car is easy, and very scenic! From the north, simply follow the A171 down from Guisborough, which takes you across the heather-clad North York Moors and gives you the most stunning views of the town and the sea as you descend the final few miles. If you're already on the Yorkshire coast, take the A171 north from Scarborough.
From the South and West, you'll probably be coming up the A64 from the direction of York. Take the A169 around Malton, drive through Pickering and continue the A169 over the spectacular North York Moors. Don't forget to stop to admire the views. A short detour into the moorland village of Goathland ("Aidensfield" in TV's Heartbeat) is well worthwhile. Soon after descending through the attractive village of Sleights (pronounced Slites) you'll join the A171 for the final couple of miles into the town.
Fortunately, unlike many of Britain's coastal towns, Whitby still retains its rail services. Northern Rail operate trains along the attractive Esk Valley line from Middlesbrough, where there are connections to the National Rail network.
Getting a bus couldn't be easier. The Coastliner runs regularly from Leeds and York with branches to Scarborough and Whitby. It's a great way to sit back and view "God's Own Country" and, in 2018, it won the title of the Britain's Most Scenic Bus Route.
By Air, you have the choice of Leeds Bradford Airport, Teesside International Airport or Newcastle International Airport.
The Ferry Ports of Hull and Newcastle are equidistant from Whitby. P&O Ferries operate services between Hull and Rotterdam in Holland or Zeebrugge in Belgium. If you're coming from Amsterdam, DFDS sail from there to Newcastle (Port of Tyne).
Nearest Airport: Teesside International Airport 68 km

"There is help out there and it can change everything." Mum-of-four speaks about her battle with binge eating disorder
Karen Bethell

When Rhianwen Smee signed up for a gruelling, 48-mile 'ultra' marathon to raise cash for the eating disorders charity Beat, she opened up to friends and family for the first time about her own struggles with food. The Holt mum-of-four, who has already topped her £400 fundraising target, talks to KAREN BETHELL about her lifelong battle with binge eating disorder.
Because her mother had severe mental health problems, after her parents separated, Rhianwen and her two sisters were brought up by their father at Kelling, near Holt.
With her mother frequently admitted to hospital, life was difficult, but while she says there is no specific event that triggered her troubled relationship with food, Rhianwen admits that her "unusual" childhood led her to seek comfort in eating.
"It became something I could turn to," she explained. "Not necessarily just when I felt sadness, but any emotion - rather than dealing with something, I would eat."
By the age of 11, Rhianwen had begun eating in secret, buying treats to eat in private and even stealing food from the neighbours she did odd jobs for.

Her problems continued into her teens, with Rhianwen entering into a torturous cycle of bingeing, followed by feelings of shame and self-hatred.
"There was never a point where I felt satisfied and could stop – I had to eat until everything was gone - and, in your mind, every time is the last time," she said.

By the age of 19, Rhianwen was a full-time mum to two young children and, forced to flee an abusive partner, found her issues around food became a bigger part of her life than ever.
"Because I was in such a controlling relationship, food became how I coped; it was the one thing I could do for myself that didn't have repercussions," she explained.

Eleven years ago, she met her fiancé James, with whom she had two more children, and finally in a happy, loving relationship, she felt able to open up to some extent about her problems.
However, as a young mum-of-four, Rhianwen, who also has parental responsibility for her nephew, 13, and supports local families as a Home Start volunteer, continued to struggle and, as her weight crept up to more than 17 stone, her self-esteem plummeted.
"I would eat to the point that I thought I might actually choke," she said. "I thought I was so messed up that I was the only person on the planet who had this stupid, dysfunctional relationship with food."
She developed rituals, buying 'bad' foods – chocolate, cakes and crisps – to binge on in private, sometimes still sharing family meals to hide her disorder.
Hitting on the idea of using exercise as a way of "undoing" the effects of a binge and "punishing" her body, four years ago, Rhianwen took up running and joined a gym, and the weight began to fall off.
But while to the outside world she seemed happier, in reality, her eating disorder had spiralled out of control.
"I'd lost the weight through bingeing and starving, spending three hours in the gym, then going for a run on top of that," she remembers.
Not knowing where to turn to for help, she poured out her troubles on paper and made an appointment with her GP, who referred her to the NHS Norfolk Wellbeing service.
However, group therapy and anxiety management sessions failed to help and it wasn't until she contacted the Norwich-based eating disorders charity Eating Matters that she began to get her life back on track.
One-to-one therapy sessions led to Rhianwen learning coping strategies, gradually reducing the frequency of her binges and developing a healthier relationship with food and exercise.
A long-standing member of the North Norfolk Beach Runners, she ran her first marathon in 2015 and has since completed eight half marathons, a further three full marathons and more than 100 Parkruns.
For the past four years, she has also taken part in Endure 24, an annual 24-hour cross country running event.
Keen to help others battling similar problems, Rhianwen, 35, decided to apply for the 48-mile Peddars Way Trail Ultra Marathon in aid of the eating disorder charity Beat.
Since signing up for the run, which kicks off at 6am on January 26, she has penned a series of searingly honest Facebook posts about her struggles, prompting an outpouring of support from friends and family.
"People have been amazing, but it was a bit like ripping a plaster off, it was a way of me saying, 'this is me and I have these issues'," she said.
"I realised that I wasn't the only one out there and I would say to anyone else going through the same thing that there isn't a single thought or feeling they have had about food that other people haven't experienced – there is help out there and it can change everything."

Binge eating disorder facts
Binge eating disorder, which is more common in adults than young people, is a serious mental illness which can lead to weight gain, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, depression and anxiety and heart disease.
Sufferers, who often have feelings of guilt, shame and self-loathing about binges, usually eat large amounts of food very quickly, even when not hungry.
Binges, which can be very distressing, may involve buying 'bad' foods and eating in secret, with the sufferer often feeling compelled to continue eating, even if they want to stop.
NICE guidelines say that, in the first instance, people diagnosed with a binge eating disorder should be offered a guided self-help programme, before being offered weekly group eating disorder-focused cognitive behavioural therapy typically lasting four months or, if this is not suitable, one-to-one therapy.
For information about treatment and support, visit www.eatingmatters.org.uk or www.beat.org.uk or phone the Beat adult helpline on 0808 801 0677 (youth helpline: 0806 801 0711).
Extract from Rhianwen Smee's Facebook posts charting her eating disorder battle
I remember once as a child finding some old, well past their best mint chocolates. I remember clearly opening the box and realising they were not ok to eat.
To this day I have never seen chocolate that looked the same, but I ate them. I still can remember the vile taste in my mouth from them and it pops in my mind every so often.
The amount of shame you carry inside you into adulthood is astonishing, it adds to everything to keep the cycle going.
The embarrassment, the shame, the saying you are never going to do it again and this is the last binge. The plans to not eat for a few days to cancel it out, the crazy ideas about living on as little as possible to cancel it out. I started running so then added exercise into the cycle, burning calories and at times running on empty to try to undo a binge. Running should be about feeling awesome and being proud of your body, I have run hundreds of miles while berating and hating mine instead. I want that to change.


I was recently contacted by a student asking if I had any tips for students who are applying to dental school for a second or even third time. Because I did not know the details of this student's application, just like I don't know the details of your application, I came up with five general scenarios of why students do not get into dental school. It is important that you evaluate your situation so that you can make the weak areas of your application strong. Reapplying without evaluating and changing the weaknesses of your application will likely land you many more rejections in the future.
1. Low GPA– The average GPA for students matriculating into dental school is about 3.5. If one's GPA is 3.3 or below they may have difficulty receiving interviews. In this situation, I would definitely focus on getting As in the upcoming semesters. If you are near graduation or have already graduated I would recommend checking into a post-baccalaureate program in order to raise your GPA. In addition, I would advise dropping any extracurricular activities that may be hindering you from receiving As in your courses, as those activities will do you no good if their GPA is too low.
2. Low DAT– The average DAT score for students matriculating into dental school is about a 19AA. Students with an AA of less than an 18 will definitely have difficulty getting accepted into dental school. Also, if the student has any section below a 17 (with the exception of math which can be 16 or maybe even a 15 depending on the other scores) they may want to heavily consider the option of retaking the DAT. A low science score, reading score, or perceptual ability score is a red flag to the admissions. To give yourself the best shot at getting in, plan on getting an academic average of 19 or higher with no sections below a 17. If you fit into this category remember to give yourself adequate time for preparation. Only reschedule your DAT when you know that you are prepared and can score achieve your desired scores. Use practice test software such as Crack DAT PAT, Top Score Pro, and DAT Achiever to judge whether you are ready or not for the exam.
a) The student has good GPA and good DAT scores but did not apply to enough schools – For the sake of this example, let's say that the student has a 3.7 GPA and a 19AA with a 20TS. This student's statistics are very good but if they only applied to 3 or 4 schools they still may not gain acceptance to dental school. Keep in mind that there are 1,000-4,000 students applying to each school and there may only be 50-120 seats available. In addition, if this student only applied to schools such as UCLA, Harvard, University of Washington, or any school that is not out of state friendly, their chances of getting an interview invite is much less due to the competitiveness of these schools statistics. If I were in this student's situation I would apply to 8-12 schools with 2-3 schools that may challenge my statistics and the remainder of the schools matching my statistics a little closer. If you are one of these students keep in mind that statistics are not everything. Evaluate your application to make sure you have a good personal statement, extracurricular activities, and letters of recommendation.
b) The student has slightly below average or average GPA and DAT score (3.4 GPA with an 18AA) – This student's statistics are slightly below average. However, they definitely still have a chance at getting an acceptance as long as there are no major red flags on the DAT (scores below 17) and they're met the other dental school prerequisites. However, a student with such statistics needs to apply to at least 15 schools. Yes, this may cost them money but it could save them a whole year and the application fees. In addition, this student should plan on applying at the beginning of the cycle (June 1) in order to give them the best chance at gaining an interview. If there are any red flags with the DAT score a retake is recommended before applying for a second or third time. As mentioned above, this applicant should evaluate their application to ensure they have a good personal statement, extracurricular activities, and letters of recommendation.
4. Interviewed But Not Accepted – For the most part, once a student gets an interview they are on an even playing field with the other applicants. The interview is for the schools to see who you are and to see if you are who you say you are on your application. Remember, if you have an interview this means they like the way you look on paper! Remember, even if you have a 23AA if you blow the interviews you may not get accepted to dental school. Tip: Practice being interviewed by attending mock interviews put on by a nearby university, and have family members or friends ask you interview questions. This will allow you to polish your interviewing skills so that you can give clear, confident answers during your interview.
5. Applying Too Late in the Cycle – Some students do not realize the importance of applying early. I personally did not take the DAT until late August which caused my application to be incomplete all the way up until mid-September. However, I was not planning on applying until the next year but decided to give it a shot anyways knowing that I may not get as many interviews or even an acceptance. That was a risk I was willing to take. There is definitely still a possibility of getting in if you apply late but chances are much smaller. I was told by about 4 to 5 schools that if I would have applied earlier I probably would have received an interview. As long as your DAT is done and it is done well then I would plan on completing the application on or as close to June 1st as possible. Tip: Copy the current application to a word document and fill it out during the spring. Make sure that you have professors/dentists that can have letters of recommendation completed by June 1st and then plan on spending the first few days after June 1st finishing the application and getting everything completed.
As mentioned several times throughout this article, statistics are not the only thing that make or break an application to dental school. A well-written personal statement, quality letters of recommendation, extracurricular activities, and a successful interview all play a role in whether you will be accepted to dental school.


TIRANA, Dec. 5 – Local homemade traditional products in Permet, a southern Albanian historic town, are well known throughout Albania, but as in much of the country face difficulty in penetrating markets due to being produced informally and lacking certification.
A town of some 10,000 residents, Permet, nicknamed the 'City of flowers,' is known for the Benja thermal springs, the iso-polyphony of late master Laver Bariu whose 'kaba' instrumental music has been placed under UNESCO protection as 'a masterpiece of the oral and intangible heritage of humanity,' and most recently as an emerging adventure travel destination for rafting along the Vjosa River canyons.
Two of the town's characteristic products, gliko, a fruit compote, and raki, the traditional alcoholic drink of Albania, can now easier access local markets following investment in a local production facility known as an 'incubator' of typical Albanian products, the first of this kind in the country.
The incubator, a joint investment by the Albanian and Italian governments at a modest €140,000, is a novelty which Albanian authorities say will be extended nationwide to help small farmers access markets by preserving traditional production methods, but certifying them under market requirements to meet food safety standards.
"We will extend this model nationwide so that typical products certified by these incubators can easier access markets," says Albania's Agriculture Minister Niko Peleshi.
The Permet business incubator is a facility with two production lines, one for the local raki, and the other to dry, cut and package local fruit and vegetables, in an investment that has also been supported by the Italian Development Cooperation, the Italian government's agency responsible for official development aid abroad.
Minister Peleshi says the business incubator model in Permet is an opportunity for artisan farmers and housewives to meet food safety standards and easily access markets to increase their household income.
"The Permet gliko and raki as well as other dishes are well known, but not everybody can easily find them on sale because many of these products are informal and lack standardization. They are excellent and so tasty, but cannot prove that to the National Food Authority," the agriculture minister said during the recent inauguration of the Permet business incubator.
A fruit compote, Gliko is a dessert offered to every guest in Permet, a town known for its hospitality in addition to natural and cultural heritage.
"The solution is this incubator, artisans can come here and use this incubator's equipment and have their products packaged, labelled and certified to easily sell them by increasing the quantity produced and marketing them better," he adds.
The Permet incubator will be managed by a local association promoting traditional products.
Permet is also known for fine white wines, honey and dairy products and has been selected by an Albanian woman and her French husband as the site of an agribusiness farm, operational for the past couple of years, offering local organic food and accommodation.
The business incubator initiative comes as Albania has undertaken a campaign to brand its unique agriculture products to boost agritourism through the promotion of quality authentic Albanian products such as olive oil, mountain tea, medicinal and aromatic plants considered some of Albania's rarest riches.
Farm-to-table restaurants are also being offered tax incentives in a bid to boost the country's nascent agritourism sector.
"Gliko is an important element of the local cuisine in Përmet and is made from many different fruits and vegetables, all grown locally by many of the valley's small-scale farmers. 'Walnut husk' gliko, made from whole green walnuts, is the most common style and other popular variations include white cherry, eggplant, wild fig, plum and apricot," says Italy-based Slow Food Foundation for Biodiversity.
"The production method, although differing depending on the type of gliko, involves the careful selection of the fruit, which is then left to soak for one hour and twenty minutes in a mix of cold water and lime so that it becomes firm and resistant. The fruit is then mixed with sugar and boiled in a traditional copper pot placed over an open flame, to cook for one hour. Lemon is added at intervals to maintain a bright color. When the fruit has absorbed the syrup the gliko is cooled and packaged in glass jars," adds the foundation.
Back in early 2017, the southern Albanian town of Permet was declared a historic center, paving the way to restoration projects in a bid to make it more attractive to tourists who are already discovering the town through rafting on the Vjosa River canyons.
Permet boasts characteristic buildings although transformed, arched front doors and centuries-old cypress trees.
There are two religious buildings within the historic center, the 1776 St. Premte church, a first-category cultural monument, and the 19th century St. Nicholas church. There are indications the cobbled streets and narrow paths date back to the early 19th century.
The Varrosh neighborhood houses, mostly two-storey ones, stand next to each other, with small front gardens surrounded by stone walls and wooden front doors.
The Permet district is known for its Benja thermal waters, the Hotova fir national park, the Trebeshinë – Dhëmbel – Nëmëreçkë mountain chain and the Kelcyra Gorge.
A town of some 12,000 residents, situated some 224 km south of Tirana, Permet has been inhabited for centuries, and is the hometown of the famous 19th century Frasheri brothers who had a key contribution to Albanian Renaissance movement ahead of the country's declaration of independence in 1912 after almost five centuries under Ottoman rule.

The Southern Corn Rootworm and Farm Practices to Control It
Description: "Of all corn pests in the South one of the most serious is the larva, or young, of the 12-spotted cucumber beetle -- the so-called southern corn rootworm. True to its name, it feeds on the roots, but in young corn it also drills a small hole in the stem just above the first circle of roots, boring out the crown and killing the bud.... Progressive farming methods, as described in this bulletin, will reduce the ravages of this insect. Burn over waste places to destroy dead grass, weeds, and rubbish in which the beetles winter. If possible, avoid planting corn in fields which contained corn the year before. Enrich the soil by planting legumes so that the corn will have a better chance of recovering from rootworm injury. Protect the bobwhite. This bird destroys many beetles of the rootworm. By careful observations, extending over a period of years, find out the dates between which the rooworm does the most damage; then time your planting so that it will fall either before or after these dates, taking into consideration, of course, other important factors in crop production." -- p. 2

The Wheat Jointworm and Its Control
Description: Revised edition. "The wheat jointworm is a very small grub which lives in stems of wheat, feeding on the juices of the plant and causing a slight swelling or distortion of the stem above the joint. The egg from which it hatches is laid in the stem by an insect resembling a small black ant with wings. This insect attacks wheat only. The injury which it causes to wheat is very distinct from that caused by the Hessian fly, yet the effects caused by these two insects are often confused by farmers." -- p. 1-2. This bulletin gives a brief outline of the life cycle and the nature of the injury to the plant by the jointworm so that any farmer may readily recognize its work and be able to apply the measures of control herein recommended.

Creator: Warburton, C. W. (Clyde William), 1879-1950
Eradication of Ferns from Pasture Lands in the Eastern United States
Description: "There are nearly 7,500 recognized species of ferns in the world, of which number over 200 are known to be native to the United States. A few species have become weed pests in this country, and it is to a discussion of the control of these weedy ferns that this bulletin is devoted. The parts of the United States in which ferns are bad weeds are, principally, (1) the hill country of the Northeastern States and the higher portions of the Appalachian Mountain region as far south as Georgia, and (2) the Pacific coast country west of the Cascade Mountains.... This publication deals only with fern eradication in the Eastern States." -- p. 1-2
Creator: Cox, H. R. (Herbert Randolph)
Description: Revised edition. "The wheat jointworm is a very small grub which lives in stems of wheat, sucking the juices of the plant and causing a swelling in the stem. The egg from which it hatches is laid in the stem by an insect resembling a small black ant with wings. This insect attacks no other kind of plant. The injury which it does to wheat is very distinct from that caused by the Hessian fly, yet the depredations of these two insects are often confused by farmers. This paper is intended, therefore, to give a brief outline of the life history and the nature of the injury to the plant by the jointworm so that any farmer may readily recognize its work and be able to apply the measures of control herein recommended." -- p. 3-4
Creator: Phillips, W. J. (William Jeter), 1879-1972
Chestnut Blight
Description: "Chestnut blight, caused by a fungus brought into this country from Asia before 1904, is responsible for the death of millions of acres of chestnut growth in New England and the Middle Atlantic States. The disease spread rapidly to nearly all parts of the range of the native chestnut, and the remaining stands of the southern Appalachians face certain destruction. The present known distribution, its symptoms, and the fungus that causes the disease are described. The blight fungus itself does not have any effect upon the strength of chestnut timber, and blight-killed trees can be utilized for poles, posts, cordwood, lumber, and extract wood. Search is being made for native and foreign chestnuts resistant to the disease in the hope of finding a tree suitable for replacing the rapidly disappearing stands. Seedlings of Asiatic chestnuts, which have considerable natural resistance even though not immune, are being tested in the United States." -- p. ii
Creator: Gravatt, G. F. & Gill, L. S.
Beekeeping in the Tulip-Tree Region
Description: "Many thousand colonies of bees occur in the region where the tulip-tree is abundant but the honey crop from tulip-tree flowers inconsiderable. Too few beekeepers in this region have modern equipment, it is true, but the greatest loss comes from the fact that they do not care for their bees so as to have them ready to gather the abundant nectar from this early-blooming tree. In this bulletin a methods is given for the management of the apiary so that the full honey crop from this source may be obtained." -- p. 2
Creator: Phillips, Everett Franklin, 1878-1951 & Demuth, Geo. S. (George S.)
Wheat Scab and Its Control
Description: This bulletin discusses wheat scab, a fungal disease of wheat, rye, barley, and oats that is caused by a parasite. It describes the appearance of afflicted crops as well as the parasite's life cycle and proposes a variety of control measures.
Creator: Johnson, Aaron G. & Dickson, James G. (James Geere), b. 1891
Coal-Mine Accidents in the United States and Foreign Countries
Description: From Introduction: "The lack of comparable and accurate statistics of coal-mine accidents in the united States as a whole led the Bureau of Mines in 1911 to undertake the collection of such data. The mining departments of the leading foreign coal-producing countries have long taken cognizance of the importance of statistics. The bureau feels that in presenting the tables embodied in this report it is offering the and comparable statistics of coal-min accidents for the country as a whole that have ever been published."
Creator: Horton, Frederick W.
Analyses of Tipple and Delivered Samples of Coal: (Collected During the Fiscal Years 1948 to 1950 Inclusive)
Description: From Forward: "This bulletin is the first of a new series, which includes analyses of only tipple and delivered coal. It covers samples collected throughout the United States from July 1, 1947 to June 30, 1950 (fiscal years 1948-50). It is planned that future publications of this series will cover a period of one fiscal year only and be issued as soon as possible after June 30 of each year."
Creator: Snyder, N. H. & Aresco, S. J.
Uranium in the Southern United States
Description: From introduction: In this study on raw material sources of uranium the Southern Interstate Nuclear Board has catalogued all known occurrences of uranium and some references to thorium in a 17-state area (P1. 1). These occurrences have been evaluated as potential sources of uranium by the State Geological Surveys and the consultant group of SINB. Favorability guides have been applied to the known occurrences and recommendations have been made for future action by the states involved, federal agencies, or by industry. State recommendations are included in state-by-state summaries. The state reports were written either by personnel of the State Geological Surveys or were abstracted from State geological survey data by members of the consultant group...The purpose of this study was to compile information on and systematically assess uranium and other radioactive occurrences in the region. The SINB undertook the project because of its statutory, interstate capability as an extension of government in each of the 17 states, an arrangement that lends itself effectively to this cooperative undertaking.
Creator: Southern Interstate Nuclear Board

Heather Diana-Troy Travis says:
This is cool and power rangers are the beast season ever and they did a good job make the power rangers season good and cool too also keep it going too.
Saban brands made a big deal out of this announcement and its old news. Is anyone surprised. They need help in the worst way. Psycho looks good but that is a leak
Psycho rangers!!!!
Kevin B. says:
who wants to hear a joke? saban brands is the joke!
they promised us a big announcement. maybe a sequel or 2019 season? nope instead we get toys that were in stores last year. this is one big fat joke!!!
I already bought Pink!
Those toys look amazing. The downfall is that some of the retailers only have old legacy figures and they don't bring the new ones ever. I have tried to go to Walmart, Target, Toys R Us and sometimes the only place found are on Ebay. It sucks that they don't distribute them correctly or evenly. I like in a major city, so it isn't like it would be as hard to have them in stock.
Jerry Smith says:
Okay, this is getting old. Every time you post a new article discussing Saban Brands, they're always bringing up diversity this diversity that. STOP BRAGGING ABOUT IT!
Rick Sanchez says:
Why do you hate diversity so much Jerry. We get it, you think its an agenda. It probably isnt and is just something the world should've accepted from the beginning and are for some reason just getting around to. Its not an agenda but you are so go spread your disease somewhere else.
Real Power Rangers fan says:
Jerry is a Nazi. Just ignore him.


Unlike my cousin Tally, I have a strong sense of personal style. I keep up with the trends, but I always put a distinctly "Bree" spin on them. Even in the early 90s, I found a way to add some bombshell to the grunge: I just tied my flannel shirts under my bosom, unbuttoned my henleys to show a little cleavage, and wore them with a cute denim mini instead of those shapeless jeans everyone else picked. Ick.
The heart of my look, of course, is my hair. The good Lord blessed me with a full mane of bright red hair. Not auburn or strawberry blonde, but stop-light, cherry-on-top, capital R-E-D, red. Once, I heard some mousy blonde call it "hussy hair." I just smiled.
You can imagine my horror when I discovered my first glimmer of gray in my crowning glory.
Of course, that first gray was just the beginning. They multiplied like bunnies on Viagra.
So I found myself in a bit of a pickle. I used to smirk when I'd see women with platinum or ruby hair and roots the color of week-old cow pies. But, me? Go gray? No way in holy heck.
What could I do? I slapped a pair of Jackie-O sunglasses on my face and a ball cap on my head ... then I hightailed it to the drug store in Possum Point (about 20 miles down the road) to pick up a box of Berry Blitz hair dye.
My daughter, apple of my eye and fruit of my loins, declared me "vain." I pointed out that she could start judging me the minute she had a credit score, a car payment, and stretch marks from birthing a smart aleck child.
But part of me thought maybe she had a point. Should I wear my gray hair with pride? A sign that I've lived hard and made it through? Or is it o.k. to indulge in a little chemical sleight of hand?
With an unnamed actress suing IMDB because they disclosed her actual age, where do you stand? How far are you willing to go to trick Father Time?
Find out more bombshell Bree, her smarty-pants daughter Alice, and long-suffering Tally in I Scream, You Scream, Scoop to Kill, and A Parfait Murder. And be sure to visit Wendy on her website and on Facebook.
I love this series and have read them all already.
Bree, you go girl and wear whatever hair you want !
I'm all for trickery. Keep that red, Bree!
I like to match my hair color to my outfits. I don't wear much gray, but silver decorated with crystals--now there's a look!
You've got to go with whatever makes you feel like a diva, Bree.
Go for it Bree - until you're almost old (like with wrinkles that don't firm up with goo) then see what 'natural' actually looks like. You may find that a few gray streaks are stunning. Then go easy on the painted-on eyebrows.
Bree and Red go together. Get that box and wear it proud.
Leave it alone, nothing wrong with gray. Be proud of it, because it shows you've lived right. My Grandmother use to dye her hair all the time, so we talked her out of it, and turns out she had the prettiest white hair you ever saw. We called her Cottontop. If you lost her in a store, all we had to do was look for that Cottontop!
I've actually opted for the best of both worlds: I just got my hair colored to get a little "pick me up" for the colder weather, but I had the colorist keep the impressive fringe of white I have right at my hairline. I sorta love it!
