Philippines, is the only country in the world which is 85% Catholic that created FIVE(5) national laws "favoring", "respecting" and "financing" the religion of ISLAM.
Then made it unlawful to finance all other religions.
The only country in the world that has a government commission that caters to Muslims only, for the hajj, for madrasas, and the spread of Islam at government's expense PAID by the taxes of Non-Muslims.
Religion is always good for the people but it should never be embraced or financed by government. Tax exemption is not tantamount to financing. Every non-profit organization is tax-exempt.
Himamaylan City is in the Negros Occidental province and within Region VI in the Island of negros Western Visayas.

History of Himamaylan City, Negros Occidental, Philippines
article copied verbatim from: http://www.himamaylancity.gov.ph/about/history/
The Municipality of Himamaylan derived its name from the Ilonggo words, "Hima & Babaylan", a Herbolario or quack doctor that drives the Hima through a process of curing rituals. This happened when the first group of Spanish colonizers landed in the place; they found that most of the natives were afflicted with the malady, which was known to them as "Hima". To cure this malady, the natives had to call on the services of the Babaylan, who in their belief possess the power to drive the Hima away.
In the middle part of 1565, the Spaniards came and subjugated Himamaylan. They introduced Encomienda System by which a piece of land including its products and other resources, and its inhabitants were granted to members of the conquering force as their puppets. The first Spanish priest, constructed a makeshift church and gathered the native which they later called "Himaya", a thanksgiving for driving the "Hima" away. Himaya was also a place for spiritual paradise to the Babaylan. They later called "Himaya" as Himamaya-an or Himamaylan, but because of the tongue twisting sound of its syllables which the priest find difficulty in pronouncing, they changed the word to Himamaylan to suit their diction. The name Himamaylan was adopted officially when the place was founded into a township or pueblo. Thus, the town got its name both from historical and dialectical origin.
Himamaylan was founded in the 18th century. Although there was no definite record found, it became the second capital of Negros Island from 1795-1849; first being Municipality of Ilog. The town's historical landmark, the Spanish Kota (Fortress) was the seat of the Old Spanish Government. It was also the place where many natives were cured of their sickness and consequently converted to Christianity.
Himamaylan's historical records showed that in 1565 when the Spaniards came, there spur a quantum jump in the people's religious life. From a pagan life, fresh arterial blood pumped into the multiplying discipline. In a span of only a few years after Spanish Colonization, embracing the Catholic Faith, the dame dramatic transformation continued to happen that even intellectuals of today is mystified in their own findings and misbelief that they were naturally drawn to the faith.
On November 4, 1898, the revolutionary forces in Himamaylan received orders from Gen. Juan Araneta to dislodge the Spanish Soldiers stationed in the town on November 5, and the rest of the towns in Negros. Due to lack of weapons they were not able to carry out the order and it was only on November 8, 1898 when the Deputy Commander for Southern Negros in the person of Gen. Rafael Ramos showed the Spanish Corporal a copy of the Act of Capitulation, that the Spanish Soldiers surrendered, thus, making Himamaylan as the last town to have been liberated from the Spanish Government.
When the Americans came on December 28, 1898, they easily capitulated the island of Negros from the Spanish Colonizers, thereby establishing the American Rule in the whole island.
In the year 1942, after the fall of Bataan and Corregidor to the Japanese forces, three days after Negros Occidental also fall, thus, the Japanese Military Government was established in the whole province.
In the year 1945, the American liberated the Province of Negros Occidental from the Japanese forces, three (3) days after Negros Occidental Fall; Japanese Military Government was established in the whole province. In the year 1945, the American liberated the Province of Negros Occidental from the Japanese forces, thereby establishing another American era until independence was granted to the Philippines on July 4, 1946.
Through the years, Himamaylan has likewise found its prominence in its political role in the Province of Negros. Illustrious sons of the town have risen to political prominence; most worthy mentioning were Hon. Rafael Ramos, Hon. Agustin Ramos and Hon. Valeriano M. Gatuslao, the late Congressmen, Hon. Elesio Limsiaco, Sr. and Hon. Agustin Gatuslao.
With the advent of the New Republic, after Presidential Proclamation No. 1081, Himamaylan continued its march to prominence in the field of politics by sending two of its illustrious sons; Hon. Roberto Gatuslao and Hon. Antonio Gatuslao to the Interim Batasang Pambansa, Hon. Jose M. Gatuslao as mayor of the town ushered the municipality to its growth and progress in the mainstream of political, social and economic development.
The collapse of the Marcos dictatorship during the People Power Revolution on February, 1986 installed new dimension throughout the country. Revolutionary government had been declared by Corazon C. Aquino regime and consequently appointed Officer in charge in all Local Government Units with the appointment of Hon. Ernesto Rodriguez as the OIC of the municipality until 1988.
Post EDSA era saw the empowerment of the Women Sector in the country as well as in the Municipality with the election of Hon. Providencia V. Silverio into the Office as the newly elected Local Chief Executive. During this time massive development projects focused on poverty alleviation were introduced to the municipality. It was during this time (1988-1992) that government services/public services were made closer, accessible and easier to the people. The municipality was alleviated from the lowest status of a 5th class to 3rd class municipality during her term. It was also during this administration that rebel returnees in large magnitude have returned to the fold of the law.
In the year 1992, Hon. Hernan Gatuslao has sworn into office as Municipal Mayor. His untimely demise in 1993 made Hon. Luz R. Bayot, the incumbent Vice-Mayor assumed the reign of leadership of the Local Government until 1995. During her administration and on the basis of the respective average annual income amounted to P20,258,402.80 for Calendar Year 1992-1995 duly certified to by COA Himamaylan was reclassified from 3rd class to a first municipality.
The passage of Republic Act 7160 in 1991 otherwise known as Local Government Code of the Philippines added impetus to the development program of the municipality. Efficient and expeditious delivery of services was witnessed by the people. Furthermore, the barangays were able to have their share of fund from the National Government resulting to an improved service to barangay constituents.
The nineties (90's) was really a year for women empowerment, with the assumption into the office of another woman, Hon. Carminia G. Bascon in 1995. With her vision for development, Himamaylan were assured of a bright future as development efforts were focused in all sectoral concerns of the Municipality.
Luz Ramos Bayot, was elected lady mayor in 1998 together with Raymond I. Tongson, dynamic leaders who at that time, together charted the course of the municipality into becoming a new component city of the province. Together, they vigorously pursue for the Integrated Comprehensive Development of the Municipality with focus on food security and sustainable development to all sectors and supportive of the National Program on Poverty Alleviation.
In the Political Arena, Himamaylan is more blesses than the other Local Government Units in Negros Occidental.
Mr. Rene Silos, former Board of Director of NOCECO was elected as Sectoral Representatives representing the Association of the Philippine Electric Cooperatives.
The election of Cong. Lozada as Representative of the 5th Congressional District in year 19998 brought good luck and hope to all Himamaylanon as he successfully steer the Municipality into becoming a first City in the 5th district with the approval (98%)of the people in a plebiscite held March 31, 2001.
Eventually, Hon. Luz R. Bayot and Hon. Vice Mayar Raymund I. Tongson became the first City Mayor and Vice Mayor respectively.
In the May 2001 election, Hon. Carminia G. Bascon and Vice Mayor Raymund I. Tongson (2nd term) were elected as the new Executives of the newly born city of Negros Occidental.
With these developments, Himamaylan can leapfrog its progress and development, thereby giving more benefits to its people and its eventual alleviation from economic stagnation.
Himamaylan, with the support and cooperation of every sector, will continue to march towards its rightful destiny in the future as one of the progressive cities in Negros Occiddental. Making of Himamaylan City

Budget of Municipalities and Cities: The Philippine budget formulation system is not centralized. It has been decentralized since 1991. It is the responsibility of each LGU to submit their budgetary needs for review. Failure to submit is the problem. "IMPERIAL MANILA IS A MYTH!".
Absolutely NO need for FEDERALISM. It is a ploy to give the Bangsamoro an Islamic State and finance the religion of Islam. It violates the constitution's "separation of church and state". We need a representation of a MINIMUM of one SENATOR per REGION..
Contrary to Pres. Duterte's ranting (July 2019): Elected public officials can't be suspended by the DILG or the office of the president. Republic Act 7160 chapter 4.

Barangay's power and authority
This is the "Barangay Code of the Philippines".
The barangay has power and authority over its domain. The improvement of the barangay rests on the barangay officials. The barangay chairman, the barangay council and the local businessmen forge the prosperity of the barangay. Not the president of the Philippines, senate, nor congress, not the governor of the province, not the mayor nor council of the municipality or city. Poor barangays stay poor because of weak and/or ignorant(uninformed) barangay leaders.
When roads need to be built or any infrastructure within the barangay is needed, all the barangay officials have to do is make a resolution and demand for it from the city or municipality council. The resolution will force the city/municipal council or responsible government office to hear the legitimate demands. "The squeaky wheel gets the grease."
Practically anything that has to do with the barangay, the barangay officials have a say on it and most likely the authority over it. The majority of the barangay officials are not aware of their duties and power. They depend on the city council or mayor. The elected barangay officials are afraid of the mayor and city/municipality's "Sangguniang Panlungsod". They are in fear of being ousted or removed from office. The truth is, "Sangguniang Panlungsod" does not have the power to remove any elected barangay officials from office. Only the COURT OF LAW can do this (judicial branch of the government). Information is power. Be informed.
The control of traffic is not up to the city council or chief of police. It is controlled by the barangay. If the barangay needs traffic enforcers, the barangay can make a resolution to demand it from the city or municipality council. When the electric coop or the water district do not maintain their lines, the barangay can directly demand for the maintenance from the utility companies. No need to wait for city council.
The citizens also has the power to make demands to the barangay officials. In case the officials get blinded. Simply file an official complaint with the barangay secretary naming the Punong barangay as the respondent representing the barangay.
Cleaning the shorelines, drainage systems, streets, rivers, and parks within your barangay is YOUR responsibility. You are accountable for this. It is not the responsibility of the City/Municipality officials. The citizens and officials of the barangay are responsible.
BUDGET: As far as the preparation for the budget expenditures, it starts at the barangay level, then moves on to cities, municipalities, provinces and regions. The barangays need to exercise their authority. They need to put their yearly budget together for their administration and future projects. The majority of the barangays leave this job to the municipality and city. This is so wrong. Then when the budget doesn't come or is lacking, they complain.
The budget for the barangays does go to the City or Municipality, but simply for holding and later distribution. The city or municipality DOES NOT approve the budget. It was already approved by congress. The city or municipality simply "distributes" the approved budget.
The bureau of internal revenue is in cahoots to subdue the barangays, municipalities and provinces. They call the rightful shares to the taxes collected as "Internal Revenue Allotment Dependency". It is not a dependency. It is the lawful and rightful share of the LGU as specified in "TITLE III, SHARES OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT UNITS IN THE PROCEEDS OF NATIONAL TAXES, CHAPTER I, Allotment of Internal Revenue Taxes, Section 284."
Imperial Manila does not exist anymore. Budgetary planning has been "DECENTRALIZED since 1991.".
DURING ELECTIONS: Where do City and Municipality politicians go to campaign? They seek the support of the Barangay officials. They plead to the barangay folks for the votes. After the election they forget you. Do not ever forget the power of the barangay.
Ignorance keeps the pinoys thinking that Manila rules. Be informed, be educated and make your barangay prosper.
Absolutely NO need for FEDERALISM. It is a ploy to give the Bangsamoro an Islamic State where the religion of Islam is financed by the Philippine government. Bangsamoro will be a HOMELAND not for all Filipinos but for only the Muslim Filipinos. It violates the constitution's "separation of church and state". Religion is always good for the people but it should never be embraced or financed by government. Tax exemption is not tantamount to financing. Every non-profit organization is tax-exempt.

Natural Resources of Himamaylan City, Negros Occidental, Philippines
Sewer Systems of the Philippines
It is sad but true that as of the year 2012 the rivers of the Philippines continue to be the #1 Sewer Systems of the Philippines.
Protect & Save the Rivers. Do not let your sewer drain into the river. Your community can be the first to initiate this project.
Build your riverbank protection with a built-in gutter system. Reforest within Ten Years - Guaranteed!
Plant More Trees
Let us plant more trees in every barangay in the entire Philippines. It does not make any difference if the barangay is urban, partially urban or rural; we need more trees. Trees will prevent erosion, provide oxygen, prevent green house effect, and even a place of business for the shade tree mechanic.
The Philippines is a tropical country and practically anything will grow. The DENR has the planting trees project that goes on every year. Lots of picture taking for the media. Planting trees one by one is the "human" way of doing it. This individual planting of trees is good if done to "line" the roads and highways with trees or along fences or property divisions, or if you have a plantation.
To reforest the nation of the Philippines we have to plant trees the "mother nature" way. Sow the seeds during the rainy season. Go deep into "bald" forests and plant trees by sowing seeds. If there's not enough volunteers to do this, use the military helicopters to fly over the designated areas and sow the seeds.
Guaranteed within a few years, The Philippines will be lush again. >>Read More
Save The Rivers in the Philippines. They are Dying.
We are using our rivers as our sewer system. If you ask a Filipino, "Are the Filipinos a clean people?" The answer is an automatic, "Yes!". However, the Filipinos are suffering from the same disease or attitude as most people do, and that is the "NIMBY" disease or "NIMBY" attitude. (NIMBY) Not In My Back Yard. So it is OK to dump my garbage and sewer there. Not mine! Someone else will take care of it.
This attitude is killing our rivers. Your great-grandparents, grandparents or parents were once proud to tell the stories of how they enjoyed swimming in the river behind your house or nearby. However, you can't say the same or tell the same stories to your kids or grand kids. Why? Because your generation is killing the river.

Most barangays whose population have been clustered by Muslims(Moros) and their population is more than that of the Christians, the celebration of the fiesta have been cancelled and replaced with the Hari Raya or Eid al-Fitr.
The cities or municipalities usually have yearly festivals where all the barangays participate. The cities or municipalities hold contests for the best floats in parades.

This year's SXSW Interactive conference – an annual event that brings together leaders in technology, media and music – will have two new high-profile speakers: the president and first lady.
Barack and Michelle Obama will be speaking during a period of intense focus on the tech industry, with Apple CEO Tim Cook's open letter challenging the FBI's request to aid in unlocking a terror suspect's iPhone, Twitter announcing an online safety panel and more companies getting into the "cord-cutting" business.
In a Pew Research Center survey conducted in February on the issue of whether Apple should assist the FBI in unlocking the iPhone of one of the San Bernardino terror suspects, more Americans sided with the government than with Apple. Some 51% of U.S. adults said Apple should assist in unlocking the phone, while 38% said the company should not help unlock the phone because it jeopardizes other users' security and privacy.
Americans' views about the trade-off between security and personal privacy have shifted over time and public opinion is often influenced by major news events. Following the San Bernardino and Paris attacks, 56% of Americans said they were more concerned that counterterrorism efforts had not gone far enough to protect the country, while just 28% said they were concerned that efforts have gone too far in restricting civil liberties. By contrast, after the Edward Snowden leaks in 2013, concerns over civil liberties were more prevalent than concerns for national security.
Americans are anxious about the privacy environment. The vast majority of Americans – 91% – agree that "consumers have lost control of how personal information is collected and used by companies," including 45% who strongly agree with this statement. The public also has little confidence that companies and organizations can keep their personal data secure.
Lawmakers, advocates and tech professionals have been looking into ways to curtail online harassment in the wake of high profile cases concerning cyber-bullying and online threats. A 2014 Pew Research Center report found that online harassment was fairly common among internet users: 40% of online adults have experienced some form of online harassment, and that share jumps to 65% for those ages 18-29.
Smartphone adoption has grown rapidly in the U.S. Today, 68% of U.S. adults own smartphones, up from 35% in 2011. Beyond calls and texts, smartphone owners use their devices to accomplish a number of tasks – including getting directions, applying for jobs and getting health information. For some Americans, particularly younger adults, minorities and lower-income Americans, smartphones are their gateway to the internet, and this "smartphone-only population" is on the rise. Today, 13% of U.S. adults have smartphones but do not have home broadband service, up from 8% in 2013. Smartphone ownership, however, is still less prevalent among lower-income Americans. The persistent debates about "digital divides" took another turn this week when the Federal Communications Commission circulated a final proposal for creating a government subsidy of $9.25 a month to encourage low-income households to gain broadband connections.
Mobile technology has not only changed the way people get to where they need to go, but it has also ushered in a new wave of businesses and sparked debates about how to regulate companies that provide services that can be called up on an apps. Ride-hailing is one of the most well-documented examples of growth in this so-called gig economy. A 2014 Pew Research Center survey found that 11% of smartphone owners use their phones at least occasionally to reserve a taxi or car service. It is most popular among smartphone owners ages 18-29; 17% of them have reserved rides via their phones. In addition to car services, the gig economy has spawned businesses ranging from home sharing to online marketplaces for homemade goods.
Some Americans are ditching their cable TV services as content such as news, sports and entertainment has become increasingly accessible online. This potential shift in the media landscape could have far-reaching implications for many industries. Our 2015 report found that 15% of U.S. adults are "cord cutters" – meaning they once subscribed to a cable or satellite TV service but no longer do so. Additionally, 9% of Americans say they have never had cable or satellite TV. These findings suggest that how people – especially young adults – get and consume content is changing.
While Pew Research Center does not have specific data on staff diversity in the technology industry, U.S. Census data show that blacks, Hispanics and women are often underrepresented in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. For example, blacks and Hispanics combined made up 26% of the total U.S. workforce in 2011, but their share of STEM occupations was only 13%. Self-reported data from several leading technology companies echo these disparities.
Indeed, a recent Pew Research Center report shows that while a growing share of people living in emerging and developing nations surveyed use the internet, there are still wide differences in internet use based on income, education and age. Moreover, people living in richer nations are more likely than those living in poorer, developing countries to have access to the internet or smartphones.
Experts have also expressed concern about the "Balkanization" of the open internet as countries like Iran and China crack down on dissidents. Overall, our data suggest there is substantial global support for principles of free expression online, but people also support limitations on some forms of speech – both online and offline.

Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury – Words Are Not Enough! – Pugilism Co.
Twenty-Eighten almost came and went with no super-fight offerings from boxing's glamour division. Fortunately, just as all heavyweight hope seemed to be evaporating, "The Bronze Bomber" Deontay Wilder (40-0, 39 KO's) and "The Gypsy King" Tyson Fury (27-0, 19 KO's) blessed us all, agreeing to throw hands, restoring luster to the game's marquee weight class. These two giants duke it out this Saturday December 1st, from Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA., live on Showtime Pay-Per-View. At stake will be Wilder's WBC heavyweight title and the lineal championship that Fury not only acquired from Wladimir Klitschko, but never relinquished in a prizefight.
With all due respect to WBA, IBF and WBO champion, Anthony Joshua, he was perfectly content with leaving fans hanging in 2018. His unification with Joseph Parker was a dud and the logical next move seemed to be Wilder. Favorable split of the money, home court advantage, rematch clause, Wilder conceded everything to Joshua in the negotiations, to no avail. Joshua and his brain-trust designated Alexander Povetkin for assignment instead and though it was a good scrap, it wasn't anticipated or highly coveted. Nor did it resonate; not the way Wilder-Fury already has.
Mutually brash and outspoken, Wilder and Fury have expertly sold this affair from its infant stage. Quickly hammering out the contractual details, Deontay "invading" the weigh-in of Tyson's most recent bout, getting in the ring after Fury was victorious, BT Sports table talk, Showtime All-Access, the whole nine. It's become apparent they like each other more than probably expected, but there'll be no love shared when the opening bell tolls, as evidenced by Wednesday's final press conference. When ego's and legacy are at stake, niceties are understandably put to the side.
Believe it or not, Deontay Wilder not only walked into a boxing gym at the age of 20, he was an Olympic bronze medalist and world champion within 10 years. To have solidified himself as one of the best pure punchers in recent memory, makes his journey that much more amazing. Standing 6'7 with a sleek, sinewy, NBA power forward's frame, Wilder's the latest in a long line of tall, thinly built fighters with destructive power in their hands. Tommy Hearns, Bob Foster, Sandy Saddler, Alexis Arguello, Diego Corrales, Wilder's cut from that cloth; and he's universally regarded as the hardest puncher in the business, currently. It's the way Deontay's fists detonate on impact that masks his technical and stylistic shortcomings. "I'm the first of my kind. I never mimicked another man's style", he explains. Wilder is a fitting surname for a man who throws bombs will reckless abandon, a veritable street fighter if ever there was one; "Windmill Wilder".
Tyson Fury is not just a befitting boxing moniker, the man's entire existence is predicated on fist fighting; a descendant of Irish Travellers, Fury's combative lineage dates back at least three centuries. His father named him after the iconic Mike Tyson and the rest could be history in the making. At 6'9, with a barrel chested, Gerry Cooney body-type, Fury's a book easily misjudged by its cover. In his own words he has "Floyd Mayweather heavyweight defense" ripe with excellent footwork and use of the ring, feints, slipping, sliding, etc. He's the picture of relaxation and composure in the ring. He befuddled and bamboozled Wladimir Klitschko in 2015, fulfilling the legacy of his ancestry, becoming the lineal heavyweight champion of the world. But just as Fury reached the ultimate career high, things quickly spiraled out of control courtesy of drugs, alcohol, anxiety and battles with depression. Fury was stripped of his title, contemplated suicide and ballooned up to 400 pounds. Upon his return to the ring in 2018, Tyson was candid about his struggles and firmly believes he's on the brink of one of boxing's more memorable comeback stories, rivaling those of Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard or George Foreman.
Fury's undefeated in verbal altercations and the lead up to this fight has been no different. He's playfully referred to Wilder as a "basketball player", makes fun of his "Bronze Bomber" label, calling him a "third place man", yet is acutely aware of the danger his foe presents. The legit one-punch power of Wilder actually motivates Fury and he believes it will bring the best of him. For what it's worth, Wilder's spoken on familiar themes, "Bomb Squad", "speak it, believe it, receive it", "one champion, one face, one name", but in the process he's guaranteed a knockout.
You guys are best in boxing!
Just wanna congratulate u on the best article I've read on this fight – and I read a lot tho. Way2go!


Demand for corrugated packaging is due to increase by an average of more than 4% every year for the next five years1. However, margins remain under pressure and as a result it is more important than ever for corrugators to optimise all aspects of their plant's operation.
One element that plays a significant role in this process, but which is often overlooked, is lubricant selection. Choosing high performance oils and greases can provide important operational advantages, according to Inken Reuser, EAME Offer Advisor at ExxonMobil.
Do corrugators need to pay specific attention to their lubricant selections?
These improvements to equipment reliability can help to reduce maintenance-related costs and also increase plant safety by reducing human-machine interaction (HMI). To achieve these goals, it is important that corrugators use high performance lubricants, especially for bearings on heated rollers as the high temperatures can adversely affect the performance of oils and greases.
What factors affect a corrugator's choice of lubricant?
A typical corrugating machine offers a number of lubricant challenges including high temperatures [up to 200°C] and contact with steam, which is used during the forming process. Persistent exposure to elevated temperatures can cause a lubricant to thermally degrade, exposing machinery to increased wear. It is therefore essential to ensure the selection of lubricants with appropriate levels of thermal stability in order to ensure effective protection.
There is also the possibility of glue spillage and fibre build-up along with the presence of metal particles if guide plates, slitter blades or rollers are not properly aligned. Choosing lubricants that continue to provide protection in the presence of contaminants is therefore essential to help maintain the peak performance of corrugating machines.
Are there any end-use factors that corrugators should consider when selecting their lubes?
A large percentage of corrugated card output is used as transit packaging for food. It is therefore essential that food-grade oils and greases are used that don't compromise on overall performance.
That's why ExxonMobil developed Mobil SHC™ 462 PF, an NSF H1 registered food grade synthetic grease suitable for use in corrugators. It offers excellent high temperature performance up to 240°C and good wear protection, making it suitable for use in heated rollers. Mobil SHC 462 PF is also certified for use with Kosher, Pave and Halal foods.
Is one lubricant suitable for all parts of a corrugator?
A typical corrugating machine will require a range of lubricants such as hydraulic oils and grease for roller bearings. Different parts of the machine pose different lubrication challenges. Corrugators should therefore discuss each specific application with their lubricants supplier or maintenance partner in order to ensure that all the parts of their production line are receiving the benefits available from appropriate high performance oils and greases.
Can lubricant selection help corrugators reduce their environmental impact?
Effectively lubricating a corrugating machine can help reduce its overall power consumption, which not only reduces energy bills, but also positively impacts on an operator's carbon footprint. In addition, high performance oils can offer extended drain intervals, which cuts the impact of waste oil disposal, while also reducing disposal costs. Improving environmental impacts can also help corrugators save money – even more reason to select high performance lubricants.
Will a high performance lubricant help a corrugator improve operational efficiencies?
There are health and safety considerations, too. A well lubricated corrugating machine can be less prone to mechanical outages, which reduces the instances of unplanned maintenance and human-machine interactions. The fewer the interactions the less chance there is of an incident.

Ray Romano and Mike Royce pull plug on bid to "save" Men of a Certain Age
Posted by Sean L. McCarthy | Aug 29, 2011 | TV, Uncategorized | 0 |
Despite winning a Peabody Award for its outstanding quality, the dramedy that was Men of a Certain Age couldn't earn a third season on TNT — and after putting out feelers to other networks and receiving more than 10,000 fans to a Save Men of a Certain Age Facebook petition page — creators Ray Romano and Mike Royce called it quits over the weekend.
Here is the letter Royce wrote to fans of the show on behalf of himself and Romano:
Sorry I haven't been in touch. Unfortunately there's been nothing to report. And at this point, since we want to be straight with you guys, I have to tell you that we've kind of reached the end of the road. Hard to admit, but it's true.
If you can think of a network, we called them. Of course, "Men of a Certain Age" doesn't really belong on certain networks. But we called them too. We called everybody. We tried online, satellite, alternate content providers, corporate sponsorship, Taxi TV, filmstrips… everything. We've exhausted every possibility and then some.
I was certainly hoping – actually, naively expecting a different outcome. I thought somebody would pick us up. Ray and I feel strongly that there are places where MOACA would not only be an excellent fit, but a home run. But we couldn't persuade others to see it that way. And at a certain point, you gotta move on.
Sure, a miracle could still happen somehow. So please don't "unlike" this page or unsign the petition. It's still good to be able to show the world how much you guys care about the show.
We can't thank all you enough. So many of you have worked your asses off to help us find the show a home. To see the support continue to pour in now weeks and weeks later is really incredible.
It's also hard to express how grateful we are to the awesomely talented 200+ people who made the show. The cast and the crew were not only the best but made it a joy to come to work each day.
And we also want to thank TNT. I know it's natural to look at it like "they're the ones who cancelled it," but a more accurate viewpoint is "they're the ones who put it on." Honestly, the notion that a show about the lives of three 50 year olds was on television at all in this day and age is a miracle. It shouldn't be, but it is. On top of that TNT gave us the rare opportunity to do the show the way we wanted.
The end result is, we're proud of the work, proud of the critical response and mostly proud that the show seems to have secured a deep place in people's hearts that isn't always reached. Like some of you, we feel a little like we've lost a friend. But the good news is, the 22 episodes live on. They even end in a good place (if too soon).
So think of us as not as a cancelled show but a "mini-series by accident."
Because really that's our biggest hope: if you are a fan, turn other people on to it. We want it to live on. Hey, for better or for worse, the ratings tell us there are plenty of people out there who haven't seen "Men of a Certain Age." We hope they check it out.
Thanks, and see you on the hill.
—Mike Royce & Ray Romano

If an investor was to sell-to-open that put contract, they are committing to purchase the stock at $145.00, but will also collect the premium, putting the cost basis of the shares at $144.95 (before broker commissions). To an investor already interested in purchasing shares of VRTX, that could represent an attractive alternative to paying $183.81/share today.
Because the $145.00 strike represents an approximate 21% discount to the current trading price of the stock (in other words it is out-of-the-money by that percentage), there is also the possibility that the put contract would expire worthless. The current analytical data (including greeks and implied greeks) suggest the current odds of that happening are 99%. Stock Options Channel will track those odds over time to see how they change, publishing a chart of those numbers on our website under the contract detail page for this contract . Should the contract expire worthless, the premium would represent a 0.03% return on the cash commitment, or 0.32% annualized - at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost .
The implied volatility in the put contract example above is 69%.
Meanwhile, we calculate the actual trailing twelve month volatility (considering the last 250 trading day closing values as well as today's price of $183.81) to be 32%. For more put and call options contract ideas worth looking at, visit StockOptionsChannel.com.

New pterosaur species discovered in the Patagonia region of Argentina

Posted By: Dattatreya Mandal August 31, 2016
Researchers announced the discovery of a new (extinct) species of pterosaur from the Patagonia region of South America. The discovery was made from the cranial remains of a specimen that were found to be a pretty well preserved condition, probably dated from the Early Jurassic period (around 200 – 175 million years ago). Interestingly enough, the new species was named as the Allkauren koi, from the native Tehuelche language – with 'all' roughly translating to 'brain' and 'kauren' meaning 'ancient'.
The very name 'Pterosaur' comes from the Greek for 'winged lizards'. These astounding flying reptiles ruled the skies between the late Triassic to the end of the Cretaceous Period; and quite unsurprisingly, one of the largest known flying animals of all time – Quetzalcoatlus, comes from this extinct clade. In terms of size, the larger variant of Quetzalcoatlus' is estimated to have had an incredible wingspan of over 36 ft. But interestingly this was just one end of the size spectrum, with some Pterosaur specimens also showcasing the diminutive dimensions of small sparrows.
Now beyond the size and flight factors, the scope of neuroanatomy of Pterosaurs is still mostly mired in mystery. But this study could shed some new light into the origin and evolutionary pattern of these flying reptiles from millions of years ago –
Pterosaurs are an extinct group of flying reptiles that lived during most of the Mesozoic Era. This group had an extraordinary adaptation to flight, including pneumatic bones to lighten its weight, and an elongated digit supporting a wing membrane. However, pterosaur neuroanatomy is known from only a few three dimensionally preserved remains and, until now, there was no information on the intermediate forms. This study therefore provides new information on the origin, tempo and mode of evolution in this particular group of flying reptiles.
To that end, the recovered remains of this newly discovered Pterosaur species included an incredibly preserved brain-case, discovered in northern central Chubut Province (Patagonia Argentina). Later CT scan helped in establishing the creature's cranial anatomy, thus allowing 3D observations of the components like cranial endocast and the inner ear. The study of these sections led to a comprehensive phylogenetic assessment of the said Pterosaur group. As Dr Diego Pol, one of the researchers said –
Allkaruen, from the middle lower Jurassic limit, shows an intermediate state in the brain evolution of pterosaurs and their adaptations to the aerial environment. As a result, this research makes an important contribution to the understanding of the evolution of all of pterosaurs.
The study was originally published in the journal PeerJ.

Cosmetic tattooing is a procedure that takes time, money, and commitment, but one that many people have chosen to undergo for a variety of reasons. Some people choose cosmetic tattooing to cover up hair loss or skin conditions, while others may want to make their morning makeup routine quicker and easier. Whatever your reasons are for considering cosmetic tattooing, here is more information about the pre- and post-procedure cosmetic tattooing care instructions that could make your experience much better.
There are a few things you should prepare for before going in for your cosmetic tattooing procedure. Plan your cosmetic tattooing appointment for a period of time that gives you time to heal from your procedure. Wherever you are tattooing will be tender and may swell and be sensitive to light; you aren't going to want to be in direct sunlight, sweating, or attending very many social engagements in the days immediately following your cosmetic tattooing procedure. Gathering a few aftercare products like straws, pain relievers, ointments, and books or movies can also minimize the time you'll spend running around after your appointment and maximize your healing time.
Some cosmetic procedures, such as those done around the lips and eyes, may require a small amount of numbing or relaxation. If you are taking any prescription medication or antibiotics, check with your physician to make sure there won't be any adverse reactions with your medication. Also if you are prone to fever blisters, let your doctor know, as a prescription may need to be taken before and after a lip procedure.
There are specific pre-procedure care instructions for the different places you may be considering getting a cosmetic tattoo. For eyeliner, it is advised to not wear contact lenses during the procedure or for 24 hours afterwards. If you have had Lasik or other eye surgeries, check with your doctor to make sure it is safe for you to undergo cosmetic tattooing. Also no waterproof mascara should be worn 1 week prior to the procedure, regular mascara is fine. Do not wear eyelash extensions/false eyelashes 1 week prior or 30 days after the procedure as well. Your eyes may be light sensitive after the procedure, so bring a pair of sunglasses to wear home. If you are getting your eyebrows tattooed, do not tweeze, wax, or dye them for two days prior to your procedure.
It is very important to refrain from taking anything that could unnecessarily thin the blood one week prior to any permanent makeup procedure such as aspirin, ibuprofen, alcohol, and fish oil. It is also recommend not to have any caffiene the day of the procedure. If prescription medications are being taken, please do not discontinue these. If you have questions or concerns about medications interfering with the cosmetic tattoo, please contact your health care provider.
After your cosmetic tattooing procedure, there are a few tips for safe and speedy healing. Cold compresses can ease some of the discomfort and swelling you may experience after the procedure, but don't necessarily speed up the healing process. Your cosmetic tattoo will need to be kept clean; applying a healing ointment can be very beneficial. Look for ointments such as Vitamin E oils or other natural oils and moisturizers that do not contain petroleum. Bringing a pair of sunglasses is recommended for the ride home.
Avoid strenuous activity for about two days after your procedure, as sweat and increased blood pressure can cause your tattoo to swell and ooze.
Keep the area of your cosmetic tattoo clean and use a blotting motion (rather than scrubbing or wiping) to put ointment on the area. Your tattoo may scab slightly, but try to avoid picking at or bothering the area. Just like any other injury, avoid chemicals that could irritate your cosmetic tattoo until it has completely healed. Cosmetic tattoo artists recommend avoiding direct sunlight (and wearing sunscreen as a precaution), strenuous activity, swimming, steam rooms, hot tubs, soaking in bathtubs, and otherwise aggravating your cosmetic tattoo. Also no makeup should be worn on the tattooed area 1 week after your treatment. If mascara is to be worn, it should be a new tube.
Taking care of your skin before and after your cosmetic tattooing procedure is of the utmost importance. For more information on caring for your cosmetic tattoo, talk to your doctor or contact Dermillusion – your Minnesota and Arizona experts in cosmetic tattooing!

Spring is here, and you might be tempted to forget about your roof now that the long dark winter months are over. There's a lot of bright sun and warm winds now, so you probably just want to go outside and play. However, your roof needs your attention now for two main reasons: the damage it may have experienced during winter and the damage it might be vulnerable to during spring rains.
After a long winter, it's time to make sure your roofing has withstood the colder weather. With the additional moisture and colder temperatures, your roofing can often become damaged or worn. Following these quick instructions may mean the difference between water damage to your home and a dry attic.
When looking for damaged roofing, you can start on the inside of your house. Grab your trusty flashlight and head to your attic.
When it comes to preparing your roof for spring rains, this may require a little more expert assistance. It is advisable to have an experienced roofer perform a routine inspection. In fact, it is generally recommended the roof inspections be performed every fall and spring, so this is actually the best time for that inspection you've been postponing for years.
The amount of attention your roof will need will to a great extent be determined by the type of roofing material you have. For instance, metal roofs are gaining a lot of popularity today because of their low maintenance costs. Asphalt, on the other hand, is much more affected by the dramatic weather changes that occur throughout the year, thus requiring more attention.
Although less talked about, wood shake roofing can be quite resilient when it comes to weather changes. However, it also requires some maintenance to keep it in tip-top shape.
Regardless of the roofing material you have, it is important to take care of any existing or potential roof damage now. It will cost you much more to take care of the problem later on.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Every question you've had about undefeated Ohio State was thrown right in your face Saturday.
This 30-14 win over Minnesota looked like two evenly-matched teams all day, except the home team was ranked No. 3 in the nation and the Golden Gophers lost by 29 to Maryland earlier this year.
Ohio State won. But Ohio State was lucky.
With injuries that showed up, individual player breakdowns at multiple positions, a defensive game plan that allowed Minnesota to succeed on similar plays over and over and a problematic run game that can't be relied upon, the Buckeyes played poorly enough to lose.
This was like the Iowa loss a year ago, but it was at home and Minnesota didn't have the quarterback and skill to turn a bad day for Ohio State into a loss.
* The Buckeyes gave up easy slants all day and Minnesota gladly took them. The linebackers typically line up right at the line of scrimmage, threatening the offensive line and hoping to take pressure and double-teams off the defensive line. But that leaves the middle of the field wide open, and the Gophers went there again and again, beating OSU corners off the line and catching quick throws.
Ohio State never really adjusted. But the play of the game may have been linebacker Justin Hilliard batting down a third-and-6 slant late in the third quarter from the 14. That forced a field goal try that Minnesota missed, and if Hillard hadn't batted that throw -- the route was open again.
* The red zone issues are real. The lack of a running quarterback has the Buckeyes running their typical passing game in a compressed area, and it didn't work Saturday.
The Buckeyes were limited to a 21-yard field goal on their first drive and a 27-yard field goal on their first drive of the fourth quarter in a game that was too tight to settle for three when seven was there. In three red zone trips, they didn't get in the end zone.
* This week Urban Meyer was asked if he was more comfortable on third-and-7 than he was on third-and-1. Next question: Do the Buckeyes have a better chance to score a touchdown from the 40 than they do the 10?
* The offensive line had a rough day, with right tackle Isaiah Prince really struggling and left tackle Thayer Munford heading to the locker room with a third-quarter injury.
There was little push in the run game, but there may not be an answer to magically fix it. Branden Bowen, a starter a year ago who broke his leg in the middle of the season, is back at practice. Given the issues, when he's ready he may need a look at one of the guard spots. But there's little drive in the middle of the line, and the Buckeyes are getting stuffed on a regular basis.
At tackle, Joshua Alabi played when Munford went down, but he's a career backup. The backup for Prince, a senior, three-year starter and captain, is true freshman Nicholas Petit-Frere.
* There was day-long social media panic about the OSU defense. But an interception and forced fumble in the first half helped balance out two long, 75-yard Minnesota touchdown drives. Safety Isaiah Pryor saved Ohio State in the fourth quarter with a great read and interceptions on a sideline deep ball.
So for all these defensive issues, the Buckeyes only allowed 14 points. That's pretty good. But it was troubling to see the Gophers move with ease.
* The personnel losses for Ohio State were apparent.
The Buckeyes really missed injured defensive end Nick Bosa, who has been out since suffering an abdominal injury in week three against TCU.
Add the injuries that kept defensive end Jonathon Cooper and linebacker Malik Harrison out Saturday, and all day the Buckeyes were putting guys on the field they don't intend to play in tough spots.
At one point on a key third quarter snap, sophomore defensive tackle Haskell Garrett was playing defensive end. The Buckeyes were running out of healthy bodies who weren't exhausted. That was part of what went wrong with the defense. Even at Ohio State, where the talent is deep, when you start stacking up injuries, you notice it.
* The defensive scheme needs a tweak. The Buckeyes were saved by forcing three turnovers. But Minnesota really helped with that.
While big plays have bothered Ohio State all season, this time, the Gophers were marching down the field much of the day. They turned it over three times, missed two field goals, but only punted twice.
* Ohio State got a generous spot on a fourth-down Mike Weber run in the first quarter when it looked like he was short of the first down. But it was ruled a first down and Dwayne Haskins threw a 41-yard touchdown on the next play for a 10-7 lead.
If Weber is marked short, and Minnesota took over on downs, that would have drastically changed the first half.

Duke Energy accepts applications for 2014 Habitat Enhancement Program
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Duke Energy is again offering grants through the Habitat Enhancement Program (HEP) to qualifying government agencies and nonprofit organizations that want to enhance, create and protect fish and wildlife habitats along the Catawba-Wateree River and its tributaries in North Carolina and South Carolina.
HEP is a cooperative effort by Duke Energy, the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) and the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR).
The program is funded annually from a fee charged to individuals and residential marina developers seeking permits to build piers on the Catawba-Wateree lakes. The Foundation for the Carolinas administers the funds.
"This is an important program for the enhancement and creation of fish and wildlife habitat within and adjoining the Catawba River," said Joe Hall, Duke Energy lake services director. "The program has helped support numerous fish and wildlife habitat activities since its beginning more than ten years ago."
Those interested in seeking funds from the HEP this year are encouraged to complete an application found at http://www.duke-energy.com/lakes/hep-how-to-apply.asp and submit it for consideration before July 31, 2014.
Projects eligible for funding include a wide range of categories -- from planting native shoreline vegetation, constructing osprey platforms and wood duck boxes, and installing fish attractors, to purchasing property and conservation easements along the Catawba-Wateree River that permanently preserve rare and unique habitats.
Over $150,000 was awarded in 2013 for projects ranging from construction of waterfowl nesting platforms and boxes to the creation of large underwater reefs for fish habitat. Since 2007, about $1.5 million has been approved in the Carolinas for funding habitat enhancement projects. A panel of scientists, along with several private citizens, will select projects that will receive funding in 2014.
