Laser hair removal describes the application of light to achieve permanent reduction in unwanted hair. But don't be fooled, there are many devices out there that claim to offer the benefits of laser hair removal but fall woefully short. In fact, some of them are more likely to burn you then rid you of hair. They are often featured on e-Bay, Facebook ads, and marketing Web sites, and usually sell for a couple hundred to a few thousand dollars.
Q: How effective is laser hair removal?
Clinical studies show that with the right laser platform coupled with a learned practitioner, permanent hair reduction of roughly 85-99% can be achieved. Clearstone uses the most powerful and clinically proven technology and only licensed medical professions to ensure the best possible results. There are, however, many different factors that can influence the effectiveness of treatment. Such things include hair color and coarseness, skin tone as well as hormonal changes and other genetic considerations.
As such, some clients will require a few additional treatments in order to achieve their personal level of desired results. We guarantee the satisfaction of all our customers through The Clearstone AdvantageSM.
Q: Does laser hair removal work on all skin types and hair colors?
Laser hair removal works best on light skinned individuals with dark hair. However, we can safely and effectively treat all skin types. Do note, certain hair will not respond to laser treatment – we cannot treat white hairs for example. Blond and red hair will respond to our laser, but not to the same degree as darker hair colors. In order for us to effectively treat, your hair must be darker than your skin.
Q: Does Clearstone Laser Hair Removal offer a free consultation?
Absolutely. In fact, we'd like the opportunity to further discuss at our facility the benefits of our technology and medical staff as well as to ensure that you are a proper candidate for laser hair removal prior to/concurrent with an appointment. We can, of course, schedule an appointment with an initial phone call, and will most certainly explore with you the likely success of any treatments as well as discuss all the necessary steps to take to best prepare for your session and to maximize your results. If at the time of your appointment we cannot perform the treatment safely and/or with proper efficacy, we'll either reschedule or inform you of why treatment will not be appropriate in the future.
Q: What areas of the body do your customers normally seek treatment?
We regularly treat all areas of the body for both men and women. The only exceptions are areas underneath tattoos and the eyelids. Please take a look at our full body illustration as well as our very informative survey of preferences.
Q: Do you have a lot of people seeking to rid themselves of hair in the bikini area?
Most definitely. In fact, that's one of the most popular treatment areas for both men and women. And it's not surprising why. Primary reasons are for ingrown hair, a heightened hygienic feeling, aesthetic preferences, and increased sensation and/or the preferences of a significant other. In addition, men and women seek freedom of such unsightly hair due to sports, such as: weight lifting, swimming, cycling, and triathlons. Check out our survey of preferences to see what people in Texas are saying.
Yes. Our FDA approved laser platform is specially chosen for its safety and our certified team of laser professionals ensures the highest level of care. Side effects, other than short-term redness of the area treated, are exceptionally rare and are almost always temporary in nature. However, as with any treatments, you need to know all potential side effects, which we've made available on our web site.
We understand that there are a lot of providers out there, which is why we set ourselves apart by publishing our unbeatable prices for your consideration.
Q: Why will I need more than one treatment?
Hair grows in three cycles, but can only be effectively treated during its active state of growth. As such, additional treatments are needed so that each follicle can be treated during the correct growth phase. Typical number of treatments ranges from 4-6 with about 2% of our clients only needing 2 treatments. For more information, please see The Science Page.
Q: Do I need to shave before treatment?
YES! Please give a close shave the day of your treatment. For areas that you cannot reach, we can readily facilitate this need to ensure the effectiveness of your treatments. Also, any waxing or any other method that removes the entire hair follicle, including the root, must be discontinued at least three weeks prior to treatment.
Many clients have described the process as a warming sensation, especially of larger areas like the back or the legs. For highly sensitive areas, some feel more of a quick pinching feeling, but don't find it too bothersome – especially when compared to the pain of waxing.
Q: Will I have to use any topical numbing preparations before my treatment?
No. We never use numbing creams. Rather, our laser equipment makes treatments comfortable while increasing efficacy with the best cooling technology available in the industry.
Q: Do you sell packages?
Absolutely not! We never insist on upfront payment for numerous treatments. A lot of providers sell packages for fear that you'd never come back. But not us; we're confident that you'll be satisfied with each treatment you receive. Also, it's impossible to tell exactly how many treatments will be required at the onset – so why pay for a treatment package of 9 when all you may need is 4 or 5!?
Q: What if I want to simply reduce the amount of hair on my body?
Particularly relevant to men, hair reduction from just two or three treatments provides the wanted solution to excessive hair on areas such as legs and hands – although, many of our male clients, especially those engaged in sports, seek complete removal in these areas too.
Q: What's your philosophy on privacy and modesty?
Your privacy and safety is of the utmost importance to us. As such, your name, contact information and/or treatments will NEVER be disclosed to anyone. Moreover, records of treatment areas and customer names are separated by the use of a unique client number.
Also of paramount importance, we ensure the highest level of comfort. We treat one area at a time, and with your regular clothing remaining in place for all areas not being actively treated. In addition, we use warm modesty towels to cover nearby areas during treatment that cannot be conveniently clothed.
Q: How do I prepare my skin pre-treatment?
The morning of your appointment, give the area to be treated a close shave. Also, make sure to have cleaned the area and to keep it free from any lotions, creams, or fragrances. If we're treating the underarms, avoid using deodorant prior to your arrival, or we can provide an opportunity to remove it prior to treatment as well as provide an antiperspirant post treatment.
Treatment times vary according to size of area to be treated, but generally, most areas are covered in a matter of minutes. Back, chest/abs, or legs are finished in roughly 15-20 minutes.
Immediately. The treated hair follicles have been destroyed and will no longer return, leaving them to fall out naturally between 10-14 days after treatment. Many people will shave the hairs as they begin to surface; although, we provide written instruction on our innovative method to further the advancement of smooth skin post procedure.
Q: Do you back up your services with a guarantee?
Yes! We are confident in our ability to rid you of unwanted hair and stand behind our promises. As such, we've created The Clearstone AdvantageSM, the industry's most comprehensive guarantee.

Somewhere on the Eastern Front Rommel AAR
On Saturda, Ninjasaurus and Dean called over for a tester game of Rommel. I had tried it out solo, but it would their first game of it. With this in mind, we used the same forces I had previously (100 points of Soviets and Germans), but I took the Germans as they had fewer individual units and they split their command between themselves.
We divided our forces in half as per the scenario and left half off the board as reinforcements.
I also took the first turn to show how a full turn worked and edged my Panzers down the left flank. The infantry plodded along on the right.
The Soviets moved forward, taking control of the small village and also digging in on their left flank. I used a surprise attack event card to attack the village. I knew this wouldn't dislodge the defenders, but it caused some damage and as Rommel is all about attrition it was still useful.
The attack came to nothing and my Panzer IVs withdrew.
However, I used a second tactical move to relaunch the attack with fresh Panzers and infantry. Rather than lose two tank units, the Soviets withdrew and this allowed me to capture the village.
Meanwhile on my right flak I was closing in on the dug in Soviet infantry. I knew from experience that getting infantry out of prepared positions was a costly business. But my presence was enough to threaten them at this point.
Over on the left flank, the Soviet tanks launched their attacks, the T-26s piled into the village and my Marders faced off against KV-1s and T-34s! The latter using a surprise attack which blunted my defence.
Thankfully, my defence remained intact and I was able to withdraw the Marders to lick their wounds.
By counter attacking, a unit of StuGs and two infantry battalions wiped out their T-34 and T-26 that had previously been damaged. On my right flank, I had halted in front of the prepared positions. I was waiting for my reinforcements to arrive to help swing the situation.
The fighting between the tanks was intensifying as the Soviets attacked again but with no favourable advantage.
Just in the nick of time my reinforcements arrived on the table, this meant three fresh units of StuGs were able to bolster my damaged Panzers.
This caused more damage to the Soviets and also destroyed a unit on the extreme left flank.
By this stage, even though a single Panzer IV was faced off by two T-26s and a KV-1, I still had the advantage!
I pushed everything I had into another attack on the Soviet vehicles...
And they collapsed under the weight of of the combined StuGs and Panzers. After many turns of heavy fighting, the balance had swung to me.
With the fresh reinforcements adding to my weight, I attacked on the right flank, but this was always going to prove difficult to win.
Meanwhile in the centre, my previously successful StuG and infantry support were wiped out by attacking Soviet infantry. The overall advance had been blocked, despite me causing a lot of causalities on their vehicles.
Another armoured assault proved indecisive as the remaining KV-1 and T-34 fought off an attack by StuGs.
It wasn't to last though, another attack on the village cleared it out and the final Russian tanks were destroyed. However, their reinforcements had just arrived. Suddenly the back end of the table looked very full!
I had cleared the centre of Russian tanks, but now was facing a large number of fresh infantry.
The Soviet infantry in the prepared positions leapt forward in the attack and smashed a StuG and infantry battalion.
We ended the game there, on the tenth turn. The game was set to finish on the twelfth turn anyway and we figured neither of us would have been able to capture the objectives within that time.
It was a draw, with two objectives held by both sides. However, the Germans had destroyed about fifteen Soviet units to a loss of about ten. This just showed that although there were far less German units to start with, they were more than capable of holding their own in the game and tore huge holes in the Soviet defences. The German tanks in particular did very well and there was nothing left of the Soviet vehicles by the end.
This was a great game, it flowed well and we all were able to hold the rules in our heads. What I liked with playing against an opponent was not knowing what tactics they were going to use. I had a few surprises, for example, when they withdrew from a fight despite me expensively stacking the odds in my favour to no avail.A great game and I look forward to our next one!

Text has been updated to correct the full formal name of TIA TR-14 in the second paragraph.
Though some radio broadcasters are selling their towers as a means to raise cash, many still own theirs. Now new tower safety standards are coming that those owners should keep on their radars.
The Telecommunications Industry Association in 2015 began the process to revise its TIA TR-14 "Installation, Alteration, and Maintenance of Antenna Supporting Structures and Antennas." The TIA is splitting work on the guideline with the American Society of Safety Engineers (ANSI/ASSE 10.48).
TIA, which is accredited by the American National Standards Institute, could approve changes in July and publish the new standard yet this year, according to those familiar with the process. The ANSI/TIA 322 "Loading Criteria, Analysis, and Design Related to the Installation, Alteration and Maintenance of Communications Structures" guideline will directly affect owners of towers that plan alterations to existing towers.
Emphasis and guidelines will be placed on straight tag lift applications where rigging forces may become excessive with relatively minor changes in the rigging setup and/or operation.

It's been along time. Since I put a message up hear. I haven't forgotten just Facebook is a big thing know. And I've made u a page on there. Where all getting old, u would of been 34 this year.
Your bdays are harder than your anv. I'm not sure why. I think it's because when you left you where so young and only 24.
This year you would be 34. A grown man. I struggle everyday and still can't accept your gone. I've learnt to live with it. Just because of that doesn't mean I accept it at all. I wish u could of seen what damage losing u would do to us all. I'm pretty sure if U knew or was given a glimpse of the aftermath, your decision that night on 1st November 2008, would of been a different one.
Losing someone from Cancer, accident oh anything like that is hard enough. But when the person has taken there own life.
It's so so hard to get over.to many questions not answered. Why, how could I have done more.

A huge success with 22,374 registered players - WSOP Colossus
The "Colossus" of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) has just been inscribed in the list of the largest poker tournaments in history. Indeed, it has recorded a huge success with a record field of 22,374 participants. Open for a buy-in of $ 565, the event has brought together a prize pool exceeding eleven million dollars. Currently there are only 850 players left. To their delight, a big part of these eliminated players had the privilege to win a part of the prizepool. They left the gaming table with at least $ 1,096 in pocket. The French Moucharrafie Sami is part of them. He bowed at the 882nd position and received a premium of $ 3,635. But everyone didn't agree with the sharing of the prizepool of the WSOP Colossus and it generated a hot debate.
Indeed, poker pros like Matt Salsberg, Mike Matusow, Eugene Katchalov, Will Failla, Jake Cody and Dan Obrien raised their voice after having known that the champion of the event will pocket only a $ 638,880 bonus. They expressed their dissatisfaction on social networks. Chris Moorman even said that half of the prize pool of the Colossus has a priori disappeared. They believe all that with such a provision, the winner should at least receive a bonus of one million dollars. But opinions differ as a large number of players, including Andre Akkari and Philippe Ktorza said that the organizers' decision is appropriate. For them, the Colossus is above all a popular event and it is normal that the number of winning players is high. For your information, the WSOP decided to award 2,241 competitors.

What if I told you that you can protect your mailbox and your time from (most of the) spam with just one little trick? Don't believe me? Keep reading.
So everyone knows bots make most of the spam, right?
Most bots tend to fill in every field they can find on a website, usually with promotional stuff nobody want to receive in their inbox.
Everybody has their list of modules they use very often or that are included in (almost) every project. Despite the fact that Drupal has stepped into its new era with the coming of Drupal 8, I'd like to set up my very own list for Drupal 7 in light of legacy purposes.
Call it a form of documentation, if you will.
That was when I was still in school, but this is different. Now that I'm working of a variety of projects, maybe I wanna give something back to the business and maybe back-up some tricks and thoughts for in case my memory should fail me. There's enough space on the web for one more backup, right?

Q: Loading number of text files I have output files generated output files with the extension output.txt0001, output.txt0002,......,output.txt0020 from an MPI code. Is there any shorter way to load each txt file and concatenate them into a single array?
I am currently using numpy.loadtxt for each file and loading them into single arrays using np.concatenate.
h1 = np.loadtxt(p1,skiprows=1)
h2 = np.loadtxt(p2,skiprows=1)
h3 = np.loadtxt(p3,skiprows=1)
h4 = np.loadtxt(p4,skiprows=1)

halo_c = np.concatenate((h1,h2,h3,h4),axis=0)

Here p1,p2,... are paths of each text files which are located in same directory. I would like to know if there are any faster ways to do this using pandas or some other modules.

How Does Acupuncture Work
Phoebus Tian
5 element Acupuncture points chart
The fundamental elements of the universe, wood, fire, earth, metal and water, create life's natural mysterious order. 5 Element acupuncture is a method in which the Five Shu points are used with tonification and reducing methods that are based on the five elements cycles.
The five elements of acupuncture believe that people are divided into five types of wood, fire, earth, metal and water, which was recorded as early as in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. ("Between heaven and earth, within the six Jing, there is no deviation from the five, man should also be the ...... first established five forms of metal, wood, water, fire and earth, distinguish their five colours, different from their five forms of people ...... wood-shaped people... ...fire-shaped person ...... earth-shaped person ...... metal-shaped person ...... water-shaped person... Each of the five elements of wood, fire, earth, metal and water exist in the human body at the same time, and each line corresponds to one of our ways of thinking, and from the moment a person is born, one of these five elements is destined to become the "guardian line" of life. The Guardian line will govern the other four lines and influence our personality, thinking and physical characteristics throughout our lives. Any symptoms that cause physical discomfort or a state of inner discomfort is a manifestation of an imbalance of the five elements, an imbalance caused by climate, diet, stress, shock or trauma.

Jabra Identifies Megatrends in Modern Ways of Working
zhel28
Work life has substantially changed and is continuously changing. Jabra was able to identify three megatrends that define new ways of working.
The Democratization of Technology
With the dawn of smartphones, computers, printers, and mobile phones are no longer tools that are only available strictly through a company's IT department. These days, employers have acknowledged that workers have their own smart phones (sometimes more than one or two); and that they will not think twice in using them for work.
"This 'consumerization of IT' or, 'bring your own device' (BYOD) – has dramatically changed not just on what devices you will find in your board room, but the nature of work itself," explained Holger Reisinger, Jabra Vice President of Marketing, Products and Alliances. "Five years ago, it may be a rare occurrence to find a co-worker bringing in his own personal laptop to the work place. Today, it's not just increasingly common—it's the norm. Workers no longer have to come to their offices to be productive because their smartphones, laptops, and tablets are powerful enough to accomplish office work."
The study also revealed that BYOD has actually made it more efficient for workers to work out of the office; that they are able to respond faster to change; and have made workers less stressful.
The Decline of Location
According to Mark Leigh, Jabra President for Asia Pacific, around 35% of the workers today are mobile and this percentage is expected to shoot up to 75% by 2017. "Office space has become half-empty because people no longer report to the same place of work every day. UC and the Internet have made all these possible. Because we are more readily connected, we can now use the same productivity tools that we used to only enjoy in our office, while on the go," Leigh explained.
Reisinger added that with the availability of ubiquitous high-speed connectivity, cloud storage, and your personal suite of productivity devices always at your side, geography now becomes a secondary issue. "The office is now wherever you have your computer, your headset, and an internet connection."
The War for Talent
With location being somewhat irrelevant now, companies are competing for the best talent on a global basis—and this crème of the crop can pick and choose where and when they want to work.
Leigh explained that the war for talent now becomes more intense as companies compete for the more knowledgeable workers on a global basis, regardless of antiquated notions like relocation packages.
"This is actually good news," claimed Reisinger. "We're optimistic at Jabra, because our position at the forefront of this 'future of work' gives us not only a birds-eye-view of this total transformation of the global work place, but an opportunity to help shape it with our partners and customers. And this, in itself, is an exciting future."

Starting with KDE 4 aRts will be history and a new "KDE way of doing multimedia" is needed. During aKademy '04 many KDE multimedia developers started collecting the requirements for a new architecture that would allow for significant advances in capabilities and extensibility. At that time a first prototype implementation was done. The architecture was based around the ideas of producing an abstraction layer with a Qt/KDE style API to make it possible to use one of the emerging multimedia frameworks. GStreamer and NMM (Network Multimedia Middleware) are the two most interesting candidates for fulfilling the backend role.
Since then I had the chance to do an internship at university in software engineering where I restarted designing the abstraction layer.
This talk will be about the motivation and design decisions behind the new code in Subversion and how this will change the way multimedia on KDE can be used by developers and users of the KDE desktop. Problems concerning interoperability with existing multimedia applications and how they might be solved will be discussed. Also the limitations of the API as well as open tasks for completing the API for 4.0 will be presented.


Women World Boxing Championship Delhi 2018 in Delhi kicked off for its Day 1 after a glistening ceremony opened the premium event among much festivities and celebrations. Hosting the marquee tournament after a decade, India sees it national capital host the event which will see more than 277 women boxers compete over a hoard of events for a shot at the yellow metal in the light flyweight, flyweight, bantamweight, featherweight, lightweight, light welterweight, welterweight, middleweight, light heavyweight and heavyweight category.
The KD Jadhav Indoor Stadium located inside the Indira Gandhi Stadium which will play host to the Women World Boxing Championship 2018 saw a spectacular opening ceremony take place inside the arena. Boxers flying the flags of the 62 competing countries paraded around the two gleaming rings of the stadium before the boxers swore the boxer's oath which was following by marvelous cultural performances to throw open the 10-day event to the world. India has sent in a 10 member squad to the event, one that is a good mixture of youth and experience.
Day 1 of the tournament saw 26 first class bouts inside the ring captivate audiences. The flyweight (51kg) boxers were the first one on the ring at the 2018 AIBA Women's World Championships in Delhi on Thursday afternoon with the likes of Canada, Italy, Brazil and USA among the countries progressing athletes into the next round after a day of scintillating boxing action in KD Jadhav Indoor Stadium.
Showing immense competition on the opening day of the event were 52 athletes who spared no expense in putting their bid forward to progress to the next round. The first bout on Ring B was a heavyweight clash in the flyweight category (51kg), as Kazakhstan's Zhaina Shekerbekova met EUBC European Women's Champion Russia's Svetlana Soluianova. The Kazakh boxer confirmed her medal potential by defeating a tough Russian opponent in a clash worthy of beginning the proceedings of such a high profile tournament.
History was made in Delhi on day one of the women's boxing championship with Scotland, Somalia, DR Congo, and Bangladesh reaching for the first time the AIBA World Championships. The participation of these four newcomers, coming from three different continents (Europe, Asia, and Africa), are a big step forward for the sport and women athletes.
Make sure you book your ringside tickets to indulge in all the action of the tournament at the KD Jadhav Indoor Stadium with tickets available on aiba.org and at the different ticketing locations across the stadium. Boxing enthusiasts across the World will be able to watch the event live on aiba.org and all AIBA social media channels.

Biographie
Il fonde en 1947 l'Orchestre symphonique du Kansai, aujourd'hui Orchestre philharmonique d'Ōsaka, et le dirige jusqu'à sa mort 55 ans plus tard. Il fut également lié à l'Orchestre symphonique de la NHK, ainsi qu'avec le New Japan Philharmonic.

Inspiré par une rencontre avec le chef d'orchestre Wilhelm Furtwängler dans les années 1950, il s'attache à la musique d'Anton Bruckner, enregistrant l'intégralité de ses symphonies à plusieurs reprises. La musique austro-germanique occupe une place à part entière dans son répertoire : outre Bruckner, il dirigea très souvent Beethoven, Brahms, Mahler et Richard Strauss.

En dehors du Japon, il fut associé à l'Orchestre symphonique de Chicago et l'Orchestre symphonique de la Radio NDR de Hambourg au tournant des années 1980-1990.

Il est notamment décoré en 1994 de l'Ordre du Mérite culturel, et de l'Ordre du Mérite de la République Fédérale d'Allemagne. Un astéroïde fut baptisé en son nom, (5230) Asahina (désignation 1988 EF).

Hommages
L'astéroïde (5230) Asahina, découvert en 1988, est nommé en son honneur.

The redundancy process is extremely tightly regulated. There are strict rules on how your employer should conduct the redundancy process at every stage. Violation of those rules can lead to legal action and compensation being awarded to the aggrieved employees.
If the redundancy involves more than 20 people, it is called a collective redundancy. Special conditions apply to collective redundancies. The employer must notify the government and must consult with employees or their representatives for specified lengths of time before the redundancies actually take place. These are 30 days if the redundancy affects between 20 and 99 workers in total and 90 days if the redundancy affects more than that.
Your employer is required to consult you about the upcoming redundancy. This means there should, at a minimum, be a private meeting in which the organisation's managers speak to you individually. There may also be collective consultation.
If you are being made redundant, the employer is required to explain to you why the redundancy is occurring, and what the selection criteria were (if not all employees are being made redundant). These selection criteria must be objectively-based. That means they must be grounded in something concrete and measurable. It is not an acceptable practice for an employer to just pick out his least favourite employees for redundancy.
There should also be some form of appeal procedure for those who believe they have been wrongly selected for redundancy.
The employer is required to consider alternatives to redundancy, such as offering you comparable work elsewhere within the organisation, including within other affiliated companies if the company is part of a corporate group. When you accept an alternative job offer from your employer, you are entitled to a trial period of at least four weeks to help you decide if the new job is suitable. If you leave during this period, you are retain your rights to Statutory Redundancy Pay.
If you or your representatives suggest alternatives to redundancy yourselves, the employer is required to consider them.
The employer is obligated to provide a lump sum payment to anyone with more than 2 years of continuous service. A minimum of how much this payment should be is prescribed by law and is based on the length of service, age and weekly pay of anyone affected by the redundancy. This minimum amount is called Statutory Redundancy Pay (SRP). It is possible that the employer, through the contract of employment, is obligated to provide more generous treatment than this. This is called non-statutory redundancy pay.
All employees being made redundant should be provided with a written statement explaining how much redundancy pay they are entitled to and how this was worked out.
The employer is required to provide a period of notice to all employees affected by the redundancy or pay in lieu of notice (PILON). This notice period should be one week for each year of continuous service with the company or organisation. If the employee has been with the organisation for more than one month but not yet a full year, he or she is still entitled to at least one week's notice. This amount of notice is the statutory minimum. It is possible that your contract of employment provides for a longer notice period.
During the notice period, the employer is required to provide the employees who are due to be made redundant with "reasonable" time off at full pay to look for other work or to retrain.
If you leave to take a new job during the notice period, you may lose your right to Statutory Redundancy Pay.
The complexities of the law relating to redundancy can be confusing for all concerned. As violations of proper procedure can be punished with financial penalties, however, it is certainly worth researching the employer's obligations in detail.
Hi , what an informativesite this is. I have just been advised my role is to be replaced with a similar role but encompassing more staff at a close by site. a new title but largely similar, I am advised i can apply, but my role is to be made redundant. over the last five yesrs i have developed severe hearing difficulties which have been making work hard, so it could be timely, however at 62 it doesnt bode well for future employment.The co offer is two weeks pay per year, The question is, should they considerer enhancing the offer due to my situation? I am pretty sure that if i appliied for the new role they will pick a younger person, where does that leave me ?
I am being made redundant tommorrow after 21 years service.I have been told that I will be paid the statuatory amount and that it will be paid 30 days after I have been made redundant.Is this correct?I thought that redundancy payment was paid when you actually left.The company that I work for has cash flow problems.
@Ernie - that's a bit hellish. Surely if they paid into your bank account that will be referenced to a particular bank account?
I was advised ( with 2 others ) on Friday the 13th, 2 days before my 60th birthday, that my role was " at risk " of being made redundant and am nearing the end of a 30 day Consultation period. My employer advised that my role may be made redundant and an entirely new role , with a new reporting line and a new grade is being established. However, on seeing the job description of the ' new ' role , it is clearly predominantly made up of the functions I currently do together with maybe a another 30% of function. I advised my employer that the ' new ' role was at least 60% of my current role and that the reporting line would be exactly the same as it is now, which my line manager confirmed. I also highlighted that what they were doing was maybe even illegal.I have also suggested a Compromise Agreement ( after looking on-line ) but this has been rejected. I intend to go to an employment tribunal. Do you think I have a case ?
I think you should certainly give Acas a call to find out.

@Am - if your father left the company, then his redundancy would start again from the beginning. You father would only be entitled to statutory redundancy pay if he's been with his employer for two years or more. He would get one and half week's pay for each full year (as he is over the age of 41). The government will give him statutory redundancy if the company goes into liquidation.
Your employer has to follow a fair redundancy process if you'll have worked for them for at least two years by the time your job ends. Please see the link here , which will explain more.
Hi,Im a deputy manager for a care home and was asked to help out on a secondment back in December 2017 on my return in May 2018 I was verbally told my job ceased to exist due to funding of the home, I am currently at my original place of work , I received an email asking me to meet my operations manager and regional manager to discuss next steps, when being discussed I was given 2 options, 1. demotion ( senior support)with a pay freeze for 12 months to another home, 2. redundancy, I have until 22/06/2018 to decide what I want to do, I emailed my operations manager asking for written confirmation of my post no longer being available, and details of the demoted post, along with the redundancy package to enable me to make an informed decision, I just received a call saying they cant give me anything as a redundancy package has not been drawn up they want me to start the new position on Monday and to still make a decision tomorrow being Friday. I have no information to make the decision. im stressing out quite bad now as to what I can do.
In this case, you may wish to ring Acas, as it doesn't sound as though your employer is conducting a fair and objective process.

The CAB link here , should help answer your question.
@Simon - Wow. That seems a been brash of your employer. It doesn't sound like this is very fair. I'd give Acas a call.
@EsytigerIt sounds like your employer definitely wants to keep you on. Hopefully, if your job is made redundant they will offer you another job. Also, just because you have a redundancy letter it doesn't mean you will definitely be made redundant. Your employer is obviously just be going through the 'correct' procedure.
Hi can someone help , got promotion,on 6 months probation, told I had the job 6th June 17 had Confirmation letter 14th June 17 and now on 19th June 17 told they are restructuring the department and I could be made redundant which if I was a betting lady I would say I will definitely be made redundant.
Hi, I have finally, during a protracted and questionable redundancy process following a merger, received a confirmation letter that my job is no longer at risk and is in fact redundant. However, my employer refuses to give a fixed date for leaving, dependent on other projects being delivered which I have no impact on and do not affect my actual position.I have now been immediately redeployed to my previous position (over 2 years prior) with every question I put regarding suitability, role, objectives, targets etc dismissed and unanswered. I was in fact told simply "you're doing it". Tied to this, I have then been informed that this will affect my proposed leaving date and push it back further. Where do I stand as regards process? - At what point are they required to give me a fixed date? and if I'm moved from my current role then surely this is redundant now and I have grounds for immediate redundancy?

Your husband should be eligible for redundancy. If the company goes into administration he may be able to claim statutory redundancy, please see link here .
Hi, I have finally,during a protracted and questionable redundancy process following a merger, received a confirmation letter that my job is no longer at risk and is in fact redundant. However, my employer refuses to give a fixed date for leaving, dependent on other projects being delivered which I have no impact on and do not affect my actual position. I have now been immediately redeployed to my previous position (over 2 years prior) with every question I put regarding suitability, role, objectives, targets etc dismissed and unanswered. I was in fact told simply "you're doing it". Tied to this, I have then been informed that this will affect my proposed leaving date and push it back further. Where do i stand as regards process? - At what point are they required to give me a fixed date? and if I'm moved from my current role then surely this is redundant now andI have grounds for immediate redundancy?
If you leave before you have accepted any redundancy package offered, then you would not be entitled to claim your redundancy.
My employer is making some of us redundant, but is offering me some work through an agency in the same role so he no longer has to pay sick pay, holiday pay, he doesn't have to pay so much tax etc. We will therefore be doing work through an agency not directly payed by the employer any longer. Our employer says as we will still be given work through this agency the redundancy pay won't be due to us. Surely as it's no longer direct through the employer we are due statutory redundancy pay?

Brexit: The United Kingdom and the European Union have agreed to continue talking about the deadline for Sunday as "No agreement" looms on the horizon
by Bruno Glover
Talks were Initially extended until Sunday After a meeting Wednesday between von der Leyen and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, which he described as a "last resort", it ended without an agreement.
No new deadline has been announced, but von der Leyen said it was "responsible" to come forward "for the extra thing," adding that she made a "constructive and helpful" phone call to Johnson.
The European Union and the United Kingdom had been trying for months to agree on a trade deal before the "transition period" for Brexit expired on December 31. Earlier this week, a joint statement by Johnson and von der Leyen pointed to three "critical" sticking points: fishing rights, the UK's ability to disagree over EU standards, and legal oversight of any deal.
Failure to reach a trade deal would be economically painful for both the EU and the UK, although the impact on the UK would be disproportionately greater, given that the EU is by far its biggest trading partner. Losing access to its single market will cut off the UK's business from 450 million consumers in Europe, burdening them with additional customs duties and protein.
The UK Office of Budget Responsibility (OBR) estimates that a no-deal Brexit will wipe out 40 billion pounds ($ 53 billion), or 2% of the UK's economic output in 2021, leaving more than 300,000 people out of work. By the second half. Next year.
However, OBR said in November that even if London and Brussels could reach an agreement, their new trade relationship was expected to result in a long-term loss of production of around 4% compared to Britain's remaining in the European Union.

Ireland, which has the potential to lose the most from the European Union, said it was "absolutely essential" for the UK and the European Union to reach a post-Brexit deal. Irish Prime Minister Michel Martin told the BBC on Sunday that the scenario of failure to reach an agreement would be "very harmful to workers" in the UK, Ireland and across Europe, and represented "a horrific failure of governance."
Johnson said on Thursday he had instructed his cabinet to prepare for the failure of talks, and the European Union had issued plans aimed at keeping its borders open to commercial planes, trains and trucks.
The British Ministry of Defense said on Saturday that the UK will have a "string of enforcement measures" available at the end of the Brexit transition period, including "many" maritime patrol vessels available in its territorial waters.
Four patrol boats at sea "It will be available to patrol British waters to assist other government departments when needed," the ministry said.

Mid-March is a great time to visit Kona Earth coffee farm! It is near the end of the dry season, so although there are still almost daily, light rains on the farm, the ground isn't soggy and there is plenty of sunshine. It is also after the busy coffee harvest time. Kona Earth is higher than most of the other farms so they can still get one late picking in March, but the frenetic pace (Hawaiian style), of the main harvest is over. We were lucky, too! As Grandma Laqueta and I drove Mauka (up the mountain), we could see and smell thousands of coffee trees covered with white blooms. At 2,000 feet, Kona Earth's coffee trees were just beginning to bloom, but during our 5 day visit almost all of the 4,000 trees came into glorious full bloom. The scent is similar to jasmine, but is not as overwhelming.
The downside of a March visit to Kona Earth is that it is the beginning of pruning season. That is not problematic to casual visitors, but Farmer Gary likes to put his old Dad to work (pay back??). As many of you know, "Farmer" Gary is fundamentally a scientist. He has researched and studied all aspects of pruning coffee trees to the point that he now teaches pruning seminars to many of the other Kona Coffee farmers. Some of Kona Earth's front fields are pruned in the labor saving Beaumont-Fukunaga method, but the larger, upper fields are pruned in the traditional Kona fashion. "Dad" got to help with the more labor intensive traditional method (Surprise, surprise).
Farmer Gary approached each tree carefully sizing up the overall size and shape, the relative strength of the newer branches and any diseased or damaged areas of the tree trunk. Then he used his chain saw to surgically remove the old and damaged branches. His friend Matt and "old Dad" clipped off all of the small branches below "belly button height" and removed any suckers from the upper branches. The result is a tree less than half the size of the original. Ideally each tree will have three or four vertical branches above the two foot high trunk. Some of the remaining branches are two years old, others just one.
Pruning is hard, hot, and dirty labor. We had a nice cool morning and still worked up a sweat. It is the kind of work many Kona Coffee farmers hire out to the local immigrant work force. But that is expensive and Farmer Gary is very picky about how it is done. You can see why! Many of the mature branches that are removed are chock full of green coffee cherry, potentially worth thousands of dollars. Removing those branches and "wasting" their coffee cherries is necessary to ensure the optimum production of only the highest quality coffee! But, removing the wrong branches or damaging the strong new branches is costly. Although he is scientific in his approach, it appears like he has a conversation with each tree, noting its relationship to its neighbors, the sun and the jagged lava just under the thin layer of top soil. Obviously, there is also some art to this pruning business!
After pruning I helped prepare the big red tractor with its PTO chipper for the hard labor of grinding up thousands of pruned branches, and turning them into organic mulch fertilizer for the newly pruned trees. The process of grinding the braches and spreading the mulch will take several weeks. Then Farmer Gary gets to start all over on the front fields. Meanwhile, Grandma Laqueta and I get to return to our volunteer projects and our retired lifestyle in sunny Santee, CA.

Q: how to inspect the footer of a website with Firefox GCLI plugin? How do I use GCLI to view the footer for a wordpress blog?  Typically, the footer isn't viewable because as you scroll down, older items are loaded to the page.  While not infinite, for practical purposes it's not possible to scroll to the bottom of the page.
Can GCLI display or inspect the footer?

A: It's probably possible, but it would be much easier to simply open the developer tools click the gear to open the dev tools preferences, then disable js. then the page won't load more content and you can easily scroll to the bottom and right click to inspect whatever you want.

American Well® Acquires Aligned Telehealth to Expand Behavioral Health Virtual Care
Companies Combine to Expand Behavioral Health Services to Hospitals and Health Plans Amid Growing Mental Health Crisis
BOSTON – November 7, 2019 – National telehealth leader American Well® announced today that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Aligned Telehealth, a leader in the provision of behavioral telehealth and telepsychiatry services to hospitals and health plans. Combining Aligned Telehealth's ability to access a network of clinical experts with American Well's digital care delivery platform, the companies will deliver programs that hospitals, health plans and the industry at large can leverage to address the mounting challenges of clinician shortages, fragmented care and societal stigmas impeding adequate behavioral health access and treatment.
Nearly 1 in 5 U.S. adults — about 44 million — experience mental illness in a given year. In the emergency department alone, behavioral health conditions account for 1 out of every 8 visits or about 12 million visits annually. Additionally, nearly 25 percent of Americans with a behavioral health diagnosis are enrolled in Medicaid, making Medicaid the main provider of mental health services for people affected by serious mental health conditions.[i] Overall, the Kaiser Family Foundation has estimated that only about one quarter of the nation's mental health patients' needs are met.
"Aligned Telehealth is the leading player in on-demand telepsychiatry services, supporting major medical centers and Medicaid plans in their efforts to meet the needs of patients," said Ido Schoenberg, M.D., Chairman and CEO, American Well. "By adding the Aligned clinical network and expertise, American Well can further expand and enhance our virtual behavioral health programs, an exciting and important endeavor that will positively impact patients, their families, and the treatment teams providing their care, while advancing clinical outcomes and reducing overall costs."
"We've long believed that by applying powerful technology and the right clinical expertise we can improve access to mental health services for those who need it," said Nitin Nanda, M.D., Founder and CEO, Aligned Telehealth. "Within the hospital space and in service of the Medicaid population, we've proven this belief to be true. We're excited to join forces with American Well to help patients further overcome the barriers of access, cost, time, and stigma when it comes to getting the care they need and reducing the burden on providers."
The addition of Aligned Telehealth brings many advantages that complement American Well's presence in the hospital, broader acute care and health plan market, as well as will accelerate the development of future solutions, including:
Differentiated Behavioral Health Services – The Aligned Telehealth acquisition brings access to a suite of behavioral telehealth and telepsychiatry capabilities with industry leading response times.
Growth and Scale of Clinical Expertise – Aligned Telehealth brings access to a dedicated, talented team of professionals and doctors with renowned healthcare and clinical expertise. By complementing and growing American Well's network of partner providers, clients will have an increased array of clinical program options to scale their telehealth offerings.
Strong Customer Base and Client Satisfaction – Leading healthcare organizations have achieved proven success using Aligned Telehealth's behavioral telehealth and telepsychiatry services. Key accounts include Dignity Health, Christus Health and many others.
"The increased utilization of telehealth is re-shaping the healthcare landscape and there is no area that has been more affected than behavioral health," said Jason Close, System Director of the Dignity Health Telemedicine Network.
"Our goal is to transform healthcare by backing highly strategic and profoundly impactful organizations," said Michael Balmuth, Managing Partner at SV Health Investors, Aligned's sole institutional investor. "Aligned Telehealth has delivered proven results in the behavioral health space generally and telepsychiatry specifically. We're delighted to see Aligned join forces with American Well and to be stakeholders in this combination of two mission-oriented, results-driven companies. Together, we expect they will advance the cause of mental health treatment and more broadly change the way we all think about telehealth."
"American Well is focused on building the most comprehensive platform to enable digitally enhanced care services, online and in person, across the full continuum of care. We aim to connect and provide value to all healthcare ecosystem partners including providers, payers, consumers and the industries that support them. With this acquisition, we're yet another step closer to realizing our mission," added Schoenberg.

We are fortunate at Cloverlea to have a PTA that is well supported by parent volunteers and staff. This enables us to provide a wide range of family activities through the school year, which provide essential funds for the extras that make school even more special for the children.
........and many more useful resources.
In the past the focus for fundraising has been for the provision of iPads and projectors for the classrooms. The existing projectors had been showing their age - difficult to see in bright conditions and expensive to maintain. The new projectors are much easier to work with and make the classroom environment a brighter place ! The provision of iPads keeps the classroom up to speed with technology. The funds raised by everyone involved has allowed the school to provide additional iPads for the children to use.
The next focus for funds raised is the provision of a new stage and sound system to make the numerous performances even more enjoyable !
