5:30am EST– There was a moving average crossover for a short trade. RSI was less than 50, stochastics were trending down but MACD was already negative from the previous candle. This cancelled out the signal and I did not enter.
6:45am EST– I didn't even look at this as a possible trade because it was right before the 7:00am EST news event.
10:00am EST- I also didn't even look at this as a possible trade because it was happening during a news candle.

The Drying Green: A New Central Park Is Underway In Green Square
By: Tully Rosenberg, 09 June 2020
Green Square is one of Australia's largest and most exciting urban renewal projects, evolving into a colourful creative neighbourhood hub, and the area continues to develop. Lucky locals will soon be able to kick back in a brand new City of Sydney park that promises ample open green space and a network of pedestrian connections amid the bustling inner-city town centre.
The Drying Green, an expansive 6,200 square metre park, is now in the works and will feature a wetland water feature that collects and reuses stormwater, a picnic and barbecue area, terraced seating, a solar-powered public artwork and an amenities building with a green roof and landscaped surfaces, all in addition to the lush grass lawns for ball games, picnics and parties, with a few quiet corners earmarked for sunbaking and relaxation, and paths for exploring the new wonderland.
Taking its name from the area's industrial heritage, The Drying Green is inspired by one of Green Square's first industries - wool washing - where fleeces were stretched out across the grass to dry.
Continuing with her vision to create a lively urban village in Green Square and give the community more of the fresh, open spaces they've craved during the Coronavirus pandemic, Sydney City Council Lord Mayor Clover Moore predicts that as the heart of the town centre, The Drying Green will become one of the most popular parks in Sydney.
"Locals will be able to kick a ball, relax on the green lawns and enjoy a picnic or barbecue with family and friends," the Lord Mayor said. "This will have an incredibly positive impact on people's health and wellbeing and build a strong sense of community."
The Drying Green will also connect pedestrians to the new library and plaza and new community facilities include a creative centre, a childcare centre and a community shed.
The work is set to be completed by early 2022 with more than $540m being injected into the Green Square town centre to continue to revitalise the vibrant precinct in Sydney's inner south, with construction on an aquatic and recreation centre also underway and more than 40 parks set to emerge.
"With more than three-quarters of our residents across the city living in apartments, our parks, playgrounds and open spaces are essential 'the backyard' for many," the Lord Mayor said. "We're firmly committed to creating and maintaining valuable open space and investing in parks and playgrounds for future generations."

CHELSEA owner Roman Abramovich has increased speculation that former manager Jose Mourinho could be set to return to Stamford Bridge this summer after buying him a £350,000 watch.
Real Madrid manager Mourinho has been heavily linked with a move back to Chelsea, as well as being tipped to succeed Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.
But it appears that the Blues have made the first move to re-sign the Portuguese coach, who is thought to have already agreed his summer exit from the Bernabeu with the Madrid hierarchy.
According to Spanish TV program Punto Pelota, Abramovich recently gave Mourinho a new watch worth €400,000, which equates to around £350,000.
The report also suggests that Chelsea's senior players are well aware of the club's talks with Mourinho, and are confident that he will replace interim boss Rafa Benitez next season.
'The Special One' has never hidden his desire to return to West London, and recently claimed his next job will be in England.
Mourinho would be an extremely popular appointment with Chelsea fans who have been vocally adverse to Benitez's reign, with the former Porto manager winning six titles during his spell with the Blues.

New York – Since the last meeting of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries on Dec. 4, the market has been extremely sensitive to the pressure of reported low oil prices comparable to the 2008 financial crisis, in spite of a slight price lift off of 1.9 percent which erased early loses on today's session. Moreover, the logical impact on global growth of oil declining prices has not been as high as expected since it accounts for maybe 0.5 percent of global GDP, as Kenneth Rogoff from Project Syndicate reported.
This month we have seen reactions from different angles of this issue, all of which relate to oil market volatility, government expenditures, war financing strategies, and emerging markets adjustments fuelled by the seeming structural changes of oil economics. Each player is aware that the oil exporter group, led by Saudi Arabia is determined to "maximize low-cost OPEC supply and drive out high-cost non-OPEC production – regardless of price," as the IEA reported. ISIS, Russia and the frackers of the United States are the main targets of this pivotal move.
Today, the price of oil slid to $34.53 per barrel – so far and yet so near the crisis low of $32.40 a barrel that was set in December 2008. This blow came since Iran's production is expected to surge after the nuclear sanctions imposed by the West are lifted early next year.
Since June 2014 when the price of this commodity collapsed from $115 per barrel to $45 on November 2015, both producers and consumers – specifically Venezuela, Russia, Nigeria, China and India – had been lobbying and looking closely to the OPEC meetings, expecting to see if the cartel agrees on a production ceiling that would stop the free fall of prices – or not. OPEC negotiations did not end with the expected result for some producers; in turn production has remained at some 31.5 million barrels per day.
This month alone, oil has lost 14 percent of its value giving the markets a hint of the extent of this price war, mainly between the US and Saudi Arabia for their market share. Markets are foreseeing that this game would be joined by Iran, who is not delaying its plan to boost oil shipments despite current prices, as Amir Hosseein Zamaninia, Iran's deputy oil minister for international and commerce affairs, told Bloomberg.
The result of this new dynamic might lead to a $20 barrel, as Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has warned for months and Venezuela's Energy Minister Eulogio Del Pino told reporters after OPEC's meeting in Vienna.
The International Energy Agency is doubtful about the strength of oil demand on 2016. Developed countries' adviser on energy expects demand to fall behind 1.20m bpd next year, while the OPEC forecasted it would be on 1.25m bpd to average 94.14 million barrels a day next year, upping its forecast mainly as a result of "better-than-expected consumption in Europe and Other Asia".
In this sense, its important to count in the seasonal demand for heating oil which has subside given that temperatures in the U.S and Europe have been moderate, letting countries to accumulate higher than normal inventories of refined products, slowing demand much more, as reported by Nasdaq.
"We hope an increase in oil-market demand, on one hand, and a dropping trend in production or drop in the increase in production, as seen and said by non-OPEC producers, will exert less pressure on prices," Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zanganeh said, according to a report on Sunday by IRINN state TV.
The biggest consumers in the game are China and India, which have benefited from these low prices as motorists in those countries – and also in the U.S – have been filling up their tanks for less money. But as we said before both Asian countries are looking close to OPEC meetings because sustained low prices don't mean that there are going to be benefits in the long run for crude importers.
More consumption driven by low prices means that the transition to a low carbon economy could be more difficult, and we should remember that last week 196 countries reached an agreement to address the climate change issue. Emerging market energy importers' environmental impact is higher today than it was 30 years ago, so they have a more interventionist policy than developed countries, according to Rogoff.
The slowing growth of China has dampened all commodity prices, given that the country is rebalancing its domestic consumption. Moreover, government financed subsidies to keep prices low for consumers have put both countries to cut back massive costs by seizing this opportunity to reduce fiscal expenditures.
Iran has said it will put 500,000 barrels per day more to its output when the sanctions are lifted. Saudi Arabia as we said before, is expecting this to be a real force inside OPEC's discussions in the future. Venezuela, Nigeria and Russia are expecting lower prices next year but not for their pleasure given that governance in those countries is somewhat depending on the spending those governments are able to deliver.
To make it clear, the front-runner of this price situation is the oversupplied market, led by Saudi Arabia and the US. In this sense, traders, money managers and hedge funds have bet on lower prices for six straight sessions, and it is expected that in recent weeks prices could fall even more, according to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
According to the IEA the Saudi strategy is evidently working, as non-OPEC suppliers are going out of business, with annual supply growth going below 0.3m bpd in November from 2.2m bpd at the start of the year. There is also a decline expected in 2016 as US light tight oil is contracting. In the long term this price war will put more and more pressure on energy companies that at this time are seeing their debts and operations demanding more and more money.
The Arabian kingdom reached a record outoput of 10.48m bpd in June, and pumped 10.33m bpd last month, as data by Bloomberg shows. Budgets for oil explorations on non-OPEC countries are shrinking, as investors don't see the prices going up. Chevron Corp. said it will spend 24 percent less capital next year and ConocoPhillips would do the same. Declining spending is one of the possibilities available to set up conditions for prices rebound, according to Dan Heckman, senior fixed-income strategist in Kansas City, Missouri, at U.S. Bank Wealth Management, which oversees about $126 billion.

Lego is selling a treehouse made out of plant-based bricks
The huge build contains 185 elements made from the new material
A Lego treehouse with bricks made out of plant materials instead of traditional plastic is going on sale from today, August 1.
The treehouse contains bricks made from polyethylene sourced from sugarcane and has the highest number of sustainable bricks ever in a Lego set.
Lego first launches sustainable bricks in 2018.
Legoland launch cheaper Sunday tickets for families- here's how to get yours
The treehouse is made up of more than 3,000 elements and is one of the largest Lego Ideas sets to date.
It is packed with play-inspiring features and comes with a landscape base and removable treetop to reveal three detailed cabins.
All 185 plants and leaves are made from sustainable materials sourced from sugarcane. This includes the treetop canopy, which has interchangeable sets of green summer leaf elements and yellow and brown autumn leaf elements.
Tim Brooks, Vice President, Environmental Responsibility, the Lego Group, said: "When I first saw the model, I was blown away. Not only because it looks amazing, but also because it connects strongly to the very reason, we are investing so much time and effort in identifying new and sustainable materials, which is to preserve natural resources and fulfill our planet promise.
South West's biggest Lego store is opening TODAY - here's a first look inside
"It really is an important step in our ambitious target of making all LEGO elements from sustainable materials."
During 2018, the LEGO Group began making botanical elements, including trees, leaves and bushes, from plant-based polyethylene using sustainably sourced sugarcane.
Children and parents will not notice any difference in the quality, durability or appearance of the new elements, because plant-based polyethylene has the same properties as conventional polyethylene.
The elements represent the first step in the Lego Group's commitment to making products using sustainable materials by 2030.
The original idea for the treehouse was submitted through the Lego Ideas platform, where Lego fans can upload their creative builds. Users then have a chance to review and support the model and, given sufficient support, the build can end up as a certified Lego set with the help of Lego master designers.
In this case, the model was submitted by fan designer Kevin Feeser from Nancy, France.
Lego has launched a £179 Stranger Things set, and it looks awesome
Kevin's motivation for creating a treehouse stems in particular from his passion for the great outdoors combined with sophisticated Lego building skills.
The Lego Ideas Treehouse model is available directly from Lego Retail Stores and here from Lego.com from August 1, 2019.
It costs €/$199,99, is suitable for over 16s and has 3036 pieces, including 185 botanical elements made from plant-based polyethylene plastic using sustainably sourced sugarcane.
It measures more than 14" (37 cm) high, 10" (27 cm) wide and 9" (24 cm) deep

Scientists Just Found 8,000 New Drug Cocktails For Fighting Antibiotic Resistance
DAVID NIELD
To help tackle the growing problem of antibiotic resistance, scientists have come up with more than 8,000 new antibiotic combinations that have proved surprisingly effective at tackling harmful bacteria.
It's surprising because mixing multiple drugs together often has less of an impact rather than more: they can cancel each other out, or provide very little extra benefit in fighting infection.
However, biologists from the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA) have used a methodical testing system to identify these thousands of new mixes, combining four or five drugs at a time. It's early days but this method could buy us some time in the fight against antibiotic-resistant bugs.
"There is a tradition of using just one drug, maybe two," says one of the team, Pamela Yeh. "We're offering an alternative that looks very promising."
"We shouldn't limit ourselves to just single drugs or two-drug combinations in our medical toolbox. We expect several of these combinations, or more, will work much better than existing antibiotics."
The researchers started with eight antibiotics and ran through every four and five-drug combination to test its effectiveness against Escherichia coli. In total they experimented with 18,278 separate combinations, including varying doses of each drug.
In the list of four-drug combinations, 1,676 performed better than expected; a total of 6,443 five-drug combinations also exceeded expectations in fighting E. coli.
By comparison, 2,331 of the four-drug combinations and 5,199 of the five-drug combinations were less effective at fighting the infection than the scientists anticipated.
"I was blown away by how many effective combinations there are as we increased the number of drugs," says one of the researchers, Van Savage.
"People may think they know how drug combinations will interact, but they really don't."
Part of the reason, the scientists think, is that different drugs attack bacteria in different ways. The eight drugs they picked cover six different mechanisms for tackling E. coli, and in some cases that seems to be more effective than a single approach.
"Some drugs attack the cell walls, others attack the DNA inside," says Savage. "It's like attacking a castle or fortress."
While the study offers new hope in tackling the problem of antibiotic resistance, actual treatments could still be years off – this research only shows potential effects in a laboratory setting, and only against E. coli.
And it's not just a question of throwing together any type of drug: they need to be carefully and systematically chosen to treat particular problems, the researchers say.
Previous research has found that using multiple antibiotics at once can backfire, making bacteria even more aggressive – so while this new research is encouraging, it should be noted that it needs to be used with caution.
With health organisations around the world continuing to sound serious warnings about the threat of antibiotic resistance, it's clear we need all the help we can get. If we can't find new antibiotic fixes for common bugs, they might claim as many as 10 million lives a year by 2050, the World Health Organisation reports.
According to Michael Kurilla, director of the Division of Clinical Innovation at the National Institutes of Health, who wasn't involved in the latest study, the new research can be used as a foundation for further research into multi-drug combinations.
"With the spectre of antibiotic resistance threatening to turn back health care to the pre-antibiotic era, the ability to more judiciously use combinations of existing antibiotics that singly are losing potency is welcome," says Kurilla.
The research has been published in npj Systems Biology and Applications.

Paris 2010 Preview: Saab 9-3 ePower Concept
in Auto Shows, Hybrid/Electric, New Cars / by Dean / on September 17, 2010 at 21:44 /
Saab has unveiled their 9-3 ePower, a prototype planned to show its face at the Paris Motor Show. The first ePower from Saab will boast a 135kW electric motor connected to a lithium-ion battery pack. The 0-100km/h run for this model amounts to 8.5 seconds with the top speed being 150km/h.
Saab has said that the driving range amounts to 200km on a single charge, where recharging will take six-hours from a standard household outlet.
The ePower will not go into mass production just yet as Saab are planning to use the 70 models for research before they offer something to the public.
Saab 9-3 ePower – Saab's First EV
Saab 9-3 SportCombi with all-electric propulsion
Projected driving range 200 km approx.
Battery cells set benchmark for energy density
User trials with 70-strong test fleet starting next year
Trollhättan, Sweden: Saab Automobile is taking its first step towards developing an all-electric vehicle with the Saab 9-3 ePower.
Making its public debut at the Paris Motor Show later this month, the Saab 9-3 ePower is the prototype for a test fleet of 70 vehicles which will participate in extensive field trials in Sweden early next year.
The performance of the cars will be evaluated under a variety of real world driving conditions as part of the development process for a purpose-built, electric Saab vehicle. Targets to be verified include a projected driving range of approximately 200 kilometers through the use of high density energy storage in lithium-ion battery cells.
The Saab ePower is the first electric vehicle from Saab and is a result of a co-operation between Saab Automobile, Boston Power (batteries), Electroengine in Sweden AB (electric power trains), Innovatum (project management) and Power Circle (Sweden's electric power industry trade organization).
Mid-sized sports combi with zero emissions
The Saab 9-3 ePower is the first all-electric car to offer its occupants the comfort and size of a wagon bodystyle. Saab engineers have integrated an electrical architecture within the shape and dimensions of a 'conventional' 9-3 SportCombi.
Under the hood is a 135 kW/184 hp electric motor driving the front wheels through a single-speed transmission. Instant torque enables zero to 100 km/h acceleration is just 8.5 seconds, together with a top speed of 150 km/h.
The compact yet powerful 35.5 kWh lithium-ion battery pack is accommodated in a modified floor-pan, mainly in space within the car's wheelbase previously occupied by the exhaust system and fuel tank. This enables an optimum weight distribution and excellent driving dynamics similar to those of a standard SportCombi.
Inside the cabin, a conventional, automatic-style gearshift lever provides selection of 'drive', 'neutral', 'park' and 'reverse'. The rev-counter, fuel and turbo boost displays in the main instrument cluster are replaced by read-outs for battery status, power consumption and driving range, all illuminated in green. To optimize space, an electric park brake is fitted.
Electro-hydraulic power steering is used and the cabin is equipped with full air conditioning, via a compressor powered by the battery pack. A separate 12-volt battery, for the lights and cabin ancillaries, is also charged from the battery pack via a current transformer
The operation of the vehicle's powertrain is controlled by a version of Saab's own in-house Trionic 8 engine management system, with new software written for an electric vehicle application.
Long driving range with excellent durability
The Saab 9-3 ePower's projected driving range of approximately 200 kilometers pushes out the boundaries for current EV performance. Key to its long range are battery cells which have an energy storage density substantially greater than the best currently used in EV applications. High energy density also contributes to a lower battery weight.
The battery pack has a capacity of 35.5 kW/h and is designed to operate with full power in ambient temperatures as low as -30ºC, at least 10ºC below the operating level of other battery packs on the market today. Another key benefit is the use of air, instead of liquid, cooling which contributes to lower cost and further weight-saving in the pack's design.
The pack is intended to support re-charge cycles equivalent to about ten years average use. It can be fully recharged from a domestic mains supply in about three to six hours, depending on depletion status. Charging times can be greatly reduced if the voltage of the electrical feed is raised, as there is no limitation on the battery's input capacity.
Test driving experience is expected to validate the performance of this advanced battery pack, which is designed to operate reliably within a full depletion 'buffer' set at only 12 percent of total capacity, a much lower operating margin than used in the management of other packs.
Its lithium-ion battery cells are also the first to receive a Nordic Ecolabel accreditation for their environmental safety and sustainability, which includes manufacturing processes.
The 9-3 ePower meets the high crash worthiness standards that Saab applies to all its vehicles. The car's power pack is located outside the occupant compartment in non-deformable structural zones, well protected and encapsulated. The battery management and monitoring system supports safe performance during normal driving and in crash conditions.
Extensive user trials
Hundreds of drivers and their families will be enlisted by Saab and its development partners during a extensive test driving and evaluation program involving a 70-strong fleet of Saab 9-3 ePowers in central, west and eastern Sweden during 2011-12.
The Saab ePower project team in Trollhättan will monitor the performance of the cars across a wide variety of usage patterns and driving conditions. To log essential component data, all vehicles will be equipped with aircraft-style, black box recorders.
"This program is designed to evaluate the potential for developing a high performance, zero emission electric vehicle and is an important next-step in the extension of our EcoPower propulsion strategy," says Mats Fägerhag, Executive Director, Vehicle Engineering at Saab Automobile.
"This includes engine rightsizing, which exploits Saab expertise in turbocharging, as well as the use of alternative fuel, such as bio-ethanol through Saab BioPower technology."
Jan Åke Jonsson, Saab Automobile's CEO adds: "By 2015, annual global sales of electric vehicles are expected to reach 500,000 units and Saab is determined to be represented in this important, growing segment,
"The 9-3 ePower program is our first step towards developing a potential production vehicle that will deliver the sort of advanced performance our customers expect. We now look forward to working with our technical partners in developing such a product."

Being out of school has meant that I've had time to enjoy doing things around the house including decorating for July 4. My mantel is decked out for the 4th using mostly vintage or vintage inspired items.
I started my patriotic mantel decorating by hanging a vintage "Old Glory" print over the fireplace. Believe it or not, I found this print in a dumpster and the frame was found in someone's trash on an early morning run. I had a mat cut to fit the frame and print and think that they go together beautifully.
The Ikea Rast Patriotic Dresser that I shared with you in March was placed on the hearth in front of the fireplace. Recall that the flag design on the front of the dresser was modeled after an antique gate that we saw in a museum in Vermont. The flag holder on top of the dresser is one that Mr. SP and I made after seeing something similar in a Plow and Hearth catalog.
The sconces on either side of the flag print are a Goodwill find. They are marked "Made in USA 1971 Homco." I think I paid $1 for each of them. The blue vases belonged to Mr. SP's grandmother and are Czechoslovakian. The red candle holder and milk glass vases belonged to my grandmother.
Let's take a closer look at a few things on the mantel.
Isn't this piece pretty? My friend Suzanne found it at Estates Revisited and knew that I would enjoy using it for 4th of July decorating.
The post card was sent to my Great-Great Aunt Willye in 1907. I wonder who in Lynchburg sent it to her in Roanoke?
A vintage 4th of July hat is displayed on the music stand to the left of the mantel. It belonged to the son of the great-great uncle who built my mom's 1912 house.
You can better see in in this picture from last year's patriotic decor.
I so much enjoy using my vintage treasures for seasonal decorating.
Now that I've decorated for 4th of July, I need to decide how we'll celebrate. I'm hoping for a day spent at the lake. How about you? What are your 4th of July plans?
I love how you decorated inside for the 4th! It looks beautiful. What a steal you got on those sconces too – for $1?! That's great!
I love everything about this! 🙂 You are so talented at combining beautiful vintage finds and family heirlooms in to a cohesive design. Pinned the wreath and table runner too! 🙂 I need to pull out some patriotic decor this weekend.
Thank you, Kimm! I love being able to use my family things. I'm lucky that both grandmothers and my mother kept everything!
I love your patriotic theme. How beautiful are all the pieces. I love the vintage hat, what a great piece.
Isn't it neat that the hat survived the years? I enjoy using it for a decoration and I'll be the original owner, my grandmother's cousin, would be thrilled if he knew that a relative is still enjoying it.
Thanks, Meegan! You are so sweet! I really enjoy decorating seasonally, especially with vintage things.
Hi Paula! Thank you so much for posting the picture of the check from John Ahalt to Jeanette! They are my husbands 2nd great grandparents. Was doing a little ancestry search for Jeanette as it is rumored that she was of American Indian decent, and came across this post. You have an awesome treasure!
I am so glad that you found my picture, LeeAnn. My maiden name is Ahalt and my family is from MD but I'm not sure the connection to John Ahalt. I've always been told that he was a distant relative. If you would like a closer picture of the check, I'll be glad to take one and send it to you.
Hi Paula, I love the vintage print, and oh wow, I just went back to your post on creating that amazing Patriotic Dresser. this is so fabulous. Please be sure and come link up your posts, and especially the one from March on the Dresser at my Patriotic Party Thursday Evening at 6. thanks for joining in for SYS!
Thanks, Debra! I am planning to link your party.
Oh that would be wonderful if you could send an image of the check! I know the family would love to see it! The Ahalts from that family come from the small town of Middletown, MD. You can email me at pomm2045@gmail.com. Thank you so much!
Contact me in reference to an Ahalt whiskey bottle that I have.

The Numbering and Renumbering of the Rules on Competition Under the Treaties
Agreements between private companies have long constituted a regular aspect of business life. Such agreements have been designed to provide benefits for the undertakings concerned and to offer them new opportunities. There are occasions, however, when certain forms of agreements, although they may indeed be advantageous for the parties concerned, have adverse and negative effects on rival competitors, work to the detriment of consumers and undermine the competiveness of the economy in general. The issue centres on how far such arrangements impinge on the competitive process and the creation of competitive markets. Attitudes and views have differed over time, but in today's economic and political climate one particular form of agreement, namely the cartel, is now considered to be the most particularly damaging form of all anti-competitive behaviour. Cartels provide an excellent illustration of covert agreements which have usually been constructed to secure profit maximisation, and by their nature deliberately set out to thwart the competitive process.1 Two essential facts about cartellisation and collusive activities should always be borne in mind. Firstly, recourse to cartellisation is not a new development, and for some commentators cartel formation stretched as far back as Ancient Egypt (Herlitzka, 1963: 121). Cartels have impacted ever since on the operation of markets and the positions of other actors and traders. Whether such impact may be termed negative or positive is open for debate. Any comparative and historical examination reveals that perceptions (ranging from toleration, agnosticism to outright hostility) have differed from state to state over time....

The two most common types of soap dispensers are cartridge and soap dispensers. Both types of dispensers can use multiple types of soaps and come in many different styles. Soap dispensers are filled by pouring soap out of a container into the soap reservoir of the dispenser. Another advantage of the liquid soap dispenser is that you are not stuck with one brand of soap which can be true about refill cartridge dispensers. For facilities that use an abundance of soap we recommend a soap dispenser with a clear or tinted front because you can see when they are running low. If you use a professional cleaning company who cleans on off business hours it can help them to see when the soap is running low and refill them before they run out. On some liquid soap dispensers the seals can be replaced or the dispenser can be fitted with a brand new valve. If you do have a wall mounted soap dispenser we recommend using a clear or white soap because coloured soaps can stain counter tops and floors. If you don't have room to use a wall mounted dispenser, a counter mounted soap dispenser might be the right choice for you. In counter mounted soap dispenser the soap reservoir on this type of dispenser is located under the counter and can be hidden away. All you see looking down at the counter is the chrome head. These dispensers are recommended only if the soap reservoir bottle is located in an enclosed area so it will not be disturbed by children. The reservoir bottle can be unscrewed from the unit and filled easily. GOJO cartridge refill soap dispensers are easy to manage and maintain. All the working parts in the dispenser are located in the refill cartridge so every time you replace your refill you are essentially replacing the working mechanisms of the dispenser. Refills come in an array of sizes to suite every facilities needs. You can also purchase multiple types of soap to fit in the same dispenser. Using cartridge refills makes refilling your dispenser an easy and clean task, just pull out the old box out and slides the new one in.

When it comes to gift-giving over the holidays, many of us think of chocolates, gingerbread men, fruit cakes, and hard candy. But why not give a savory rather than a sweet? As a sign of love and appreciation, my mother always made egg rolls for friends and family. This year I've decided to do the same.
It's hard to trace where exactly egg rolls stem from, as many Asian communities lay claim to this on-the-go snack food. Growing up, I've always been told "These are Vietnamese egg rolls", "These are Laotian egg rolls", "These are Hmong egg rolls", etc.. I personally think they should be known as "Mom's egg rolls" or "Grandma's egg rolls", as these two ladies in my family could be found in the kitchen from dawn until dusk in my childhood.
Sadly, egg rolls are not one of my fondest foods to make. I was never good at wrapping egg rolls, therefore I was always given the task of separating the wrappers. And as we all know with children, once you've told them they're terrible at something one too many times, they give up trying–and that was me.
However, no longer living in "Mom's house", I've decided to revive this recipe in my own kitchen, with an easier twist of cooking the pork slightly, so as not to worry about it being undercooked while frying.
I hope you give these a try this holiday season!
Start by cooking minced pork until no longer pink. Strain off juices and allow to cool.
In a bowl, combine all filling ingredients, including cooled minced pork.
Take one egg roll wrap and lay on work surface with one corner towards you, and add 1.5 spoonful of mixture ⅓ away from you. Take the corner wrap nearest you and wrap over mixture. Bring in the sides to form an envelope, and roll forward. Beat the second egg and dap on the end of the wrap to seal egg roll.
Continue with 4-5 more rolls and fry in 2-3 inches of oil until golden brown.
Continue to roll and fry in this order so egg rolls don't go soggy before being fried.
Lay on paper towels to drain off excel oil.
Serve with sweetened chili sauce. Or allow to cool and place in cookie box, lined with parchment, to give as a gift.

The Trust has put in place a 10 point plan outlining key areas of work to build on the improvements already made that lifted the Trust out of special measures, as the Trust seeks to improve quality and safety and improve our efficiency and performance.
One of the key points within this plan is for the Trust to benchmark its finances against South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust, in order to inform the financial recovery plan.
In 2016-17, the Trust delivered a deficit of £37.2m which was in line with the forecast position submitted to NHS Improvement. However, this was the second year that the Trust has failed to deliver the break-even duty and now has a cumulative break even deficit of £52.8m.
Although the Trust has delivered its agreed financial targets in each of the last five years, this has been done with financial support from our partners in Herefordshire and the wider West Midlands health economies.
The Trust's Cost Improvement Programme (CIP) delivered savings totalling £4.5m. The CIP comprised a number of separate projects relating to procurement gains, increased productivity, income generation and pay efficiencies.
In addition to the formal CIP, the Trust launched a campaign to get all staff involved in making savings. 'Wye not, Waste not' generated a significant number of initiatives which have been implemented and which have contributed to the Trust's final position.
The Trust spent £6.2m on capital investments during 2016/17. The most significant element within the capital programme (£3.9m) was in relation to phase 1 of the Electronic Patient Record which was implemented in the summer of 2017.
The Trust generated income of £177.6m during 2016-17. The largest share of income is derived from the Herefordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG).
Salaries and wages paid to permanent and temporary staff during 2016-17, including those employed through agencies, totalled £133.6m. Expenditure on goods and services amounted to £74.6m and finance costs (interest payable) totalled £6.4m. Trust staffing costs increased materially when compared with 2015/16, due primarily to the high volumes of agency doctors and nurses that the Trust needed to employ in order to deal with the significant numbers of vacancies it was having to operate with.
A financial recovery plan has been produced, informed by the financial benchmarking exercise, which will ensure that the Trust improves its efficiency and performance and the organisation is financially viable over the medium and longer term.

All of the momentum the Red Sox created Sunday night after David Ortiz powered Boston to a 5-3 win over the Detroit Tigers with a three-run home run in the ninth inning disappeared Monday night.
The Red Sox couldn't replicate the late-inning success against the Baltimore Orioles as they fell 4-0 in the series opener at Camden Yards. Boston's offense proved to be inconsistent once again, with the Red Sox getting shut out for the fifth time this season.
Check out the video above to hear more from Ortiz after the game.

Rape crisis centres to get $10m boost
30 Apr, 2014 12:39 AM 2 minutes to read
There'll be an extra $10.4m for sexual violence services over the next two years, the government has announced. Photo / Richard Robinson
Isaac Davison
Rape crisis centres will get a boost in funding in next month's Budget, Social Development Minister Paula Bennett has announced.
The Government plans to invest $10.4 million into sexual violence services over the next two years.
Mrs Bennett said the sector required extra resourcing, especially for the availability of 24-hour crisis and emergency counselling centres.
Wellington Rape Crisis was temporarily forced to cut its hours from five days a week to four days a week last year, and many centres say they have no funding security.
They have warned the Government about long waiting lists and the absence of services in rural or provincial areas.
Government agencies are predicting a 10 per cent annual increase in sexual abuse compensation claims in the next six years - a trend which is believed to reflect increased reporting, not increased abuse.
The funding boost included support for male victims, who make up around a fifth of sexual abuse cases. The new money would also cover medical and forensic services, and community-based treatment services.
The Green Party's women's issues spokeswoman Jan Logie said the funding increase was a "huge win" which would give the sector some much-needed stability.
"Support services have been struggling for too long, having to worry about whether they will be able to afford to open their doors, so this long overdue funding is very welcome.
"While many services will still be operating on a shoe string to meet the need in the community, at least they will finally have the stability to focus on their work, not where the next dollar will come from."

FlyGrip Review - Go ahead, 1-hand your smartphone!
Today we're going to a quick review on the FlyGrip. This is an attachment that you can get for any device to improve its 1-handed usage which also doubles as a kickstand for your device. It generally does much better than those tiny kickstands on other cases.
Now we only have a couple of these types of accessories so it's hard to create a numeric scoring system for them but we'll give the FlyGrip two thumbs up. If you're looking for a way to safely use your iPhone in one-hand, do consider getting a FlyGrip. In our arsenal of iPhone cases, there's only one other case that offers 1-handed usage which is the Loopy Case. We've done a quick comparison at the end of our video review which can be seen above.
In terms of design, the FlyGrip attaches semi-permanent through an adhesive. The adhesive is strong as none of the cases or iPhone came flying off the Flygrip and the company was awesome enough to include 2 in each package. We did try to install the FlyGrip on a more flexible case like the Tech 21 Evo mesh which we would NOT recommend as the edges of the FlyGrip began to split.
In terms of utility and for this review, which we'll define as how useful it is, I found that using the FlyGrip makes more sense for larger devices such as the iPhone 6 Plus, a iPad Mini or a iPad Air as it allows you to basically 1-hand the large device. People with smaller devices such as the 5 and 6 might not appreciate the FlyGrip as much.
Using the FlyGrip is fairly simple as all you have to do is apply a bit of pressure to the clip and it pops off. There is a satisfying click when the clip opens up as there is a magnet in the clip and the only reason why we knew that is because of a metal bracket that fell out during a removal.
There are two sizes to each FlyGrip, a medium and large and my fingers felt the most comfortable in the large version of the case. If you have smaller fingers are think the FlyGrip's edges are a little too sharp, you can install foam padding that (they provide) to ensure the proper fit.
During my review period, I found keeping the FlyGrip in the middle of my iPhone offered the best finger reach as I was able to cover the full screen. On my application on my Griffin Survivor Core, I kept it towards the bottom of the case which made it harder to reach the top of my iPhone screen.
Again, the utility of the FlyGrip is pretty great but there's something you can't do with the FlyGrip that you can do with a similar accessory, the Loopy case which I'll elaborate in a bit.
The FlyGrip also doubles as a stand for both landscape and portrait modes which is really nice, especially for people who like to cook and stare at recipes on their iPhone's while they do so.
Practicality – Use the FlyGrip as a stand!
In terms of practicality, the only thing I noticed was that it does add a bit of bulk to your iPhone. You're basically adding an awkward shape to the back of your iPhone which has been designed with all these smooth curves.
Every once in a while, the FlyGrip will snag on a pocket and release but this is a pretty small but still something that we felt was worth noting.
Have questions about our FlyGrip Review for the iPhone 6/6 Plus? Please ask them on our Google+ page or on our Facebook page.

A $9.8 million penthouse is up for grabs at Auberge Beach Residences & Spa Fort Lauderdale and it's worth taking a moment to check out. With five bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, the two-story home has 360-degree views of the Atlantic, floor-to-ceiling windows and 5,800 square feet of living space (plus 3,800 square feet of terraces). Since it's at the top of the unique building, it also boasts a private rooftop area with a Jacuzzi and places to lounge.
Based on the photos, the penthouse has a pretty cool spiral staircase in the living room, as well as sea-inspired design elements like a coral wall hanging. Spread across two towers, the building's amenities feature several swimming pools, restaurants, a spa and fitness center, entertainment rooms for kids and teens, cigar lounge, wine tasting events in a dedicated salon, business center and a Club Room with billiards and various gaming tables.
With architecture by Nichols, Brosch, Wurst, Wolf & Associates and the interior design by Meyer Davis Studios, Inc., the property is the first residential-only development in Auberge Resorts Collection's portfolio and is set for completion in late 2017.

I can remember perfectly those childhood moments when my mum dressed me and my two sisters (my brother was still not on plans) for the Christmas Eve with our party dresses.
And those unbearable tights. Once arrived at my grandparents' home, we put off dresses and started running around in our wool tights, with no shame and for my mum's joy.
Ricordo perfettamente quei momenti della mia infanzia, quando mia mamma vestiva me e le mie due sorelle (mio fratello non era ancora nei piani) per la Vigilia di Natale, con i vestiti da festa.
E con quegli insopportabili collant. Una volta arrivate a casa dei nonni, ci toglievamo subito i vestiti ed iniziavamo a correre in giro nelle nostre calze, senza vergogna e per la gioia di mia madre.
If it was my choice, I'd put off the tights too, but it was Winter, not a good idea. Yes, because when I think about tights and me as a child, I just remember that I HATED them. I had to wear them on festivities or worse, on school recitals, maybe dressed up like a flower (my god), and I used to spend the whole time adjusting them on my legs and trying to not break in some chairs. Not so much has changed from that, but at least now I can avoid breaking them after 5 minutes. I know, I know, tights are so essential for a girl and this is why I force myself to use them feeling bagged for the whole evening/night and spending hours, before, to smooth perfectly my nails so that they can't break them, but let me say one thing: IF I HAVE TO DO IT, THEN LET ME DO IT COOL. So, I decided to decorate my tights with bows, so that they look less odious to my eyes. I like stand printed tights, doing by yourself is so funny and, incredible, makes me wanna wear them! The power of DIY.
Fosse stato per me, mi sarei tolta anche i collant, ma era Inverno, non era una buona idea. Perché sì, quando penso ai collant e a me bambina, riesco solo a ricordare che li ODIAVO. Ero costretta ad indossarli alle feste o, peggio ancora, alle recite scolastiche, magari vestita da fiore (santo cielo) e passavo tutto il tempo aggiustandole e cercando di non romperle in qualche sedia. Non molto è cambiato da allora, ma quantomeno adesso riesco a non romperle dopo 5 minuti. Lo so, lo so, i collant sono essenziali per una ragazza ed è per questo che mi costringo ad usarli, sentendomi un insaccato per tutta la sera e passando ore, prima, a limarmi le unghie perfettamente così che non possano rovinarli, ma lasciatemi dire una cosa: SE PROPRIO DEVO FARLO, LASCIATEMELO FARE BENE. Quindi, ho deciso di decorare le mie calze con dei fiocchi, per farmeli sembrare meno odiosi. Adoro posso sopportare i collant stampati, realizzarli da me non solo è divertente, ma, miracolo, mi fa anche venire voglia di indossarli! Il potere del FAI DA TE.
A pair of sheer tights. // Un paio di calze velate.
Indelible pen. // Pennarello indelebile a punta fine.
Start drawing on your leaf a bow (about 5 cm / 1,9 in). If you are not able (read= you are too lazy) to, you can use mine. // Iniziate disegnando sul foglio un fiocco (di circa 5 cm). Se non siete capaci (leggere= siete troppo pigre), potete usare il mio.
Wear your tights and sign with the chalk the point where you want the bow. // Indossate le calze e col gessetto segnate il punto dove volete il fiocco.
Fold the leaf so that it can fit the width of the tights, insert it and copy the bow you drew on the point signed with the chalk. // Piegate il foglio in base alla larghezza dei collant, infilatelo e ricalcate il fiocco che avete disegnato in prossimità del punto segnato col gessetto.
Do it for both sides. // Ripetete anche per l'altra gamba.
Voilà! So pretty, not? // Voilà! Carini, no?
come golf dal morbido ampio collo. Due al prezzo di uno: perfetto, no? Se vi piace e desiderate acquistarlo, cliccate qui!


The cat's party is in full swing. It is created by the organised Microgaming company, which means there is a lot of fun and excitement. You need to launch Kitty Cabana slot and immerse into the world of entertainment and big rewards with the cute and fluffy cats. You will have the opportunity to win up to 110 000 coins in just one spin, and a lucrative bonus game is still available. It was the additional round that became the main "zest" of the slot, so you should launch the reels and get your pay combinations. Also, the percentage of the payment promises to return the maximum number of coins. After all, this figure is equal to 96.5%. Just click on the game and start enjoying it.
Thanks to a short cycle of the return of bets and low volatility, the slot takes a high position in the ranking of completing the bonus requirements. In usual and free spins, you should not expect to get the big winnings. My biggest payout for the spin was 50 bets, and the average prize in the bonus is equal to x31. You should think about is it profitable to play this slot? And I will leave neutral recommendations.
The frequency of falling of the bonus is statistically every 144th spins (0.70%).
The probability of a hit (any winning) is 39,66%.
Distribution of the winnings is 78% in the usual spins and 22% in the bonus.
Volatility is 3,42 out of 20 (low).
The rating of the slot machine for the wagering is 6,78 out of 10.
If you want to trigger free spins, you will need to collect three, four or five scatter symbols on which Cat-waitress is depicted. But before the machine launches free spins, the bonus game will begin.
On the screen, you will see a house with three floors. On each of the floors, one can open only one of the five doors.
Split Wilds is one of the wild symbols which turns into two. As a result, the number of symbols increases that will take part in the pay combination. If six or more pictures take part in the pay combination of symbols, the payment will be doubled.
Frozen Wilds is a wild symbol that will "freeze" in the cell in which it appeared, on three spins. And the whole reel will become wild.
Super Stacked Wilds are on the reels under the numbers two, and four wild symbols will go in strips, a length of 20 symbols.
Expanding Wilds - when wild symbol appears in any cell, it expands to the full length.
Wild reels – the numbers of the reels one and five will turn into wild ones.
On the second floor, you are being waited for multipliers to win. You can get one of the three available multipliers - x1, x2 or x3.
On the third floor behind the doors, the available free spins hid. You can find 8 to 12 free spins.
The bonus cannot be prolonged.
After any losing spin, an additional feature which is called Dashing Wild Feature can be launched. In three random cells, the wild symbol appears, so that you can receive a reward.
The pay combinations in the machine are formed only when three or more identical symbols fall on any of the 25 fixed pay lines. The size of the winning always depends on the bet. The larger it is, the larger the rewards are available. We offer you to get acquainted with the rewards, which are available when you are playing at the stake of 37.50 coins ( it is the maximum size).
Jack and the Queen will return no more than 11.50 coins if they manage to get the pay combination consisting of three or more symbols.
The symbol of King offers you to take 15 to 150 coins.
If you get three or more Ace symbols, you will earn no more than 187.50 coins.
Siamese cat on manicure offers the rewards in the amount of 37.50, 75 and 225 coins.
Red cat in a lilac hat will return up to 300 coins.
Cat, you will receive from 52.50 to 450 coins.
Sweet red cat offers everyone to take up to 600 coins.
Gray kitty will make the payment of 75, 150 and 675 coins.
The logo of the slot machine will replace all symbols except the waitress Cat. In the usual spin, wild symbols go by strips on the reels of the slot, and it also gives good rewards. For him, you can get from 90 to 750 coins.
Tip. In this game, there are quite profitable free spins, but they are hard to catch. You will have to make at least 100 spins, while the slot decides to issue the bonus game.
The pay lines are 25. The presence of fixed lines for the payment of the pay combinations influenced the range of the bets. On one spin, you can put no more than 37.50 coins.
The maximum reward for the spin is 110,000 coins, but only with the active highest bet.
Bonuses are represented by the special Dashing Wild Feature feature and the free spins mode. Wherein free spins are triggered with the help of the bonus game.
The expected percentage of the payment in the slot is 96.5%.


What does it take to make someone give? For our Jan/Feb magazine cover story, writer Stephen Marche delves into the world of crowdsourcing campaigns, where online platforms like GoFundMe and YouCaring have increasingly become lifelines for Americans who can't afford to pay for healthcare. Though the companies may have started out with the best intentions, Marche argues they may actually be fueling —and profiting from—the inequities of the American health care system instead. Successful, fully-funded campaigns are rare, and they depend on the person having a strong, relatively wealthy social network, and knowing how to "sell" their suffering. Without the skills and social network, many people fall through the cracks.
In light of this story, we decided to reach out to readers, as well as Mother Jones staff, and ask: What motivates you to give—especially to someone you don't know? We received hundreds of responses, from people who give deliberately to strangers to others who feel spurred by the moment, and found that giving is a lot more common than we might expect.
Here's a selection of the responses, lightly edited for length and clarity.
"In the run-up to the presidential election, I had a growing sense of dread about the rise of xenophobia and anti-Muslim sentiments in particular. Regardless of who won the election, bigots were freshly emboldened and, being married to a Pakistani immigrant, I was fearful about my family's future.
"While in the grocery store, the young woman ahead of me couldn't pay her $29 grocery bill. It was just a few essentials. She checked the ATM and called a friend while I waited. Finally she came back defeated. She had to put the food back; she didn't have the money. I volunteered to pay for it. It wasn't that long ago that I was in her shoes. Somebody did the same for me, and I know that in the future, when she is able, she will do the same for someone else. She was so grateful, she asked if she could hug me.
"Giving to a stranger is tricky. I've seen too much deceit. By no means do I believe that all, or even most, folks who say they need a helping hand are cheaters. I have spoken with people who insist that everyone on any kind of government assistance is gaming the system, selling food stamps on the black market, buying drugs and booze and driving expensive cars. I've been receiving EBT benefits myself for ages, as I am disabled. I see who is in that waiting room with me; these are people in need, not evil conspirators. But on the street, how can you tell?
Have You Ever Given to a Stranger?

Check out Mike Epps' Pretty Granddaughter in Her Blue Dress & Sling Bag
By Aby Rivas
https://news.amomama.com/159269-check-mike-epps-pretty-granddaughter-her.html
Mike Epps' 6-year-old granddaughter Skylar looks gorgeous in a new pic shared by her mom, Bria Epps, on Instagram. Bria, Mike's eldest daughter, once reported the comedian to the police claiming he threatened her, but it seems like the father-daughter duo managed to fix their differences.
Bria Epps is the proud mother of a gorgeous 6-year-old girl, and she can't stop gushing about her on social media.
A STAR ON THE MAKING
Little Skylar, who came to the world when Bria was only 19, inherited her mom's beauty and natural charm. She doesn't seem to be shy in front of the camera, and her looks are always on point, as proven in some of her photos.
One of Skylar's most recent pics shows the girl rocking denim buttoned up jumper with pockets, a green t-shirt underneath, and a matching sling bag. Her hair was neatly arranged on a top bun, and she also wore a pair of cute flower earrings.
Skylar's adorable angel pose melted hearts among her mom's followers, who filled the comment section gushing about the little one's cuteness.
"Look at this doll!!" wrote one user.
Another added, "Pretty Sky!" and a third one said, "So stinking cute!"
A VERSATILE PRINCESS
Skylar can rock any style with ease. A few weeks ago, Bria shared a pic of the girl floating on a pool while wearing an orange swimsuit with her curls falling down her face.
And before that, Skylar looked adorable in an Easter egg printed dress and white sandals, rocking her curls tied up in a ponytail.
On her birthday last November, Skylar posed in the middle of a street holding a number 6 balloon and wearing a chic outfit that consisted on a long sleeve blue shirt, black skirt, boots, and a blue beret.
"Happy 6th Birthday to my little princess. You mean the world to me, keep being the sweet, caring, smart, beautiful little girl that you are! I love you... it's your day baby girl" Bria captioned the pic.
RELATIONSHIP WITH GRANDPA
Skylar and her grandfather, Mike Epps, seem to have a loving and caring relationship.
However, a year before she was born, Mike and Bria got into an argument that ended up with Bria calling the cops on him.
According to TMZ, Bria reported to police that her feather threatened during a phone conversation that got a bit heated.
Bria was allegedly mad after Mike made an appearance on Wendy Williams' show and mentioned only two of his four daughters. So, when she called him to confront him, things got out of hand.
Mike denied the allegations, and although it is not clear until what point police got involved in the family drama, Bria and Mike mended their relationship and are now closer than ever.
A PROUD FATHER AND GRANDFATHER
Mike Epps is a father of four beautiful girls: Bria, Makayla Moriah, and Madison. The last two are his children with ex-wife Mechelle Epps.
"They're all No. 1 in my eyes," Epps told People of the girls in 2016. "They're all really good girls and really, really smart. I've been blessed."
The comedian revealed that after having daughters, he had to make some changes into his music taste, as he was born in an era where hip-hop was constantly degrading women. He said:

"I was like, 'Well I've got to change my music menu.' When you have girls, you see your mother, you see your grandmother, and you see your auntie. All my daughters look like my great ones, my loved ones, my older one, my influences."
And although he's happy with his girls, Epps confessed he did miss out on having a son.
"I wish I had a son," he said. And added:
"My mother had eight sons and one girl. My mother cried every day. A woman can't control a little boy that much. You think they can, but it's like dealing with a little man. I think the gene pool switched up. I had all the girls that she wanted!"
Epps' new comedy special, "Mike Epps: Only One Mike," was released on Netflix on June 25.


Two males and a bystander were shot last night when an argument broke out between two groups of males who were throwing eggs at a Southwest Baltimore bar, police said.
Detective Robert Duhony said the groups were throwing eggs against the front of Rosie's Bar in the 400 block of S. Bentalou St. about 6: 20 p.m. when the argument broke out.
A man in one of the groups pulled a semiautomatic handgun and started firing.
A boy, 14, was shot in the left leg; Michael Paskel, 24, of the 1900 block of Breitwert Ave. was shot in the stomach; and Patrick Healley, 52, a bystander, of the 2500 block of Ashton St. was shot in the right wrist, Duhony said.
The boy was treated at Johns Hopkins Hospital and Paskel at Maryland Shock Trauma Center. Healley refused medical treatment, Duhony said.


Pupils joining the School in the F Block receive a broad and balanced education in all the subjects which we feel are important for young men and women of the 21st century. This breadth and balance is continued when pupils move into their GCSE courses. Although we are not constrained to work towards the English Baccalaureate at Rugby, or to follow the National Curriculum, we do believe that this range of subjects gives pupils the best educational experience up until the age of 16.
The Sixth Form at Rugby is very different from many other academic schools. The School has a tradition of innovation in the curriculum and more details can be found on the next page of the website. We offer A levels, or the alternative CIE Pre-U qualification, in 29 subjects.
Pupils can also take an Extended Project qualification. This was developed here at Rugby through the pilot Perspectives on Science Qualification. The range of subjects offered has broadened now so that all aspects of the curriculum are covered and pupils enjoy the refreshing contrast between traditional exams and the opportunity to develop an extended piece of research in an area of their own choosing and interest.

(Editorial) Loper Football Continues Improvement

3-8, 3-8, 3-8, 0-11, 1-10, and 3-8. That's a combined record of 13-53 for the University of Nebraska at Kearney football team since joining the MIAA in 2012. When Head Coach Josh Lynn took over in 2017, the team had won one game in two years. This season, the Lopers have a record of 4-5. To the common eye, it isn't glamorous, but diving deep into this teams number and the way they have played this season, the improvement is amazing and evident.
This Loper team started 2-0 for the first time since 2011 when UNK went 10-2 and made the playoffs while in the RMAC. Those first two wins of the season, fans saw right away that the program was beginning to turn the corner.
This season the Lopers have lost three games to ranked opponents by a combined 30 points, an average of 10 points per game. Being competitive is a big facet of the game, and this Loper team has shown how competitive they are. The latest loss to a ranked opponent came to at the time #25 Fort Hays State 29-26 in double overtime. A true heartbreak. Head Coach Josh Lynn said this team picked him up after the tough loss. "I walked into Sunday's meeting pouting, you know, they uplifted me a lot more then I did for them," said Lynn.
Lynn also has loved the growth of this team during the season as well. "It's been good. Coming in, there really hasn't been a game we haven't been in. You know, now the next step is to learn how to win those games. I'm extremely happy with the way we have developed and the way we have come along. It's time to take that next step and start winning those type of football games."
One of the most refreshing aspects of this Loper team is the identity on both sides of the ball is clear. They are going to run the ball on offense, and they are going to attack you on defense.
In 2016, prior to Lynn taking the reins, UNK was 1-10. They averaged 21.7 points per game while allowing 37.6. They averaged 107.4 rush yards per game while allowing 206.7 and they threw for 219.9 yards per game and allowed 237.1 yards.
In Lynn's first season, the points per game were lower at 16.7, but they were allowing 30.6, a seven-point improvement. UNK ran the ball for 144.1 yards per game and threw it for 156.7 yards per game. They stopped the run at a high rate allowing just 125.3 yards per game, the pass defense allowed more yardage at 242.2 yards, but the secondary of a defense is always the toughest to change.
This season, all of the numbers show improvement. The Lopers are averaging 30.4 points per game, UNK is running the ball for 267.3 yards per game and throwing it for 136.2 yards. On the defensive side, they are allowing 21.8 points per game and allowing just 133.8 rush yards per game and 194.1 pass yards per game. UNK is also outscoring their opponents in each quarter of regulation by an average of 8.6 points. The proof of improvement is right there.
With just two games remaining in the season, the Lopers have a chance to capture a winning season for the first time since 2011. Soon enough, if this Loper team continues to trend up in the near future they will be competing in the top tier of the prestigious MIAA conference. UNK will host Missouri Western on Saturday morning at 11 am and that game can be heard on 93.1 KRVN FM and krvn.com.

A charming and subtly coloured specimen of the rare combination of the blue and pink varieties of Beryl, Aquamarine and Morganite, in the same crystal. From the seldom seen locality of Baha, S.W. Busper Peak in the Braldu Valley, Pakistan, the 3.7 x 2.1 x 1.6 cm Beryl crystal is attached at its base to a large snow-white Microcline feldspar crystal with two intact prism faces and a clear termination. The Beryl crystal is a translucent, pale candy-pink Morganite for the initial 2.5 cm with a clean-cut colour change to semi-transparent pale blue Aquamarine for the remaining section, including the flat and lustrous pinacoid termination. A terrific Beryl crystal with good Microcline from Baha in Pakistan.

I guess it's safe to say he's not a no planer
When he approached to George Washington Bridge he tuned to a local 1010 WINS news radio station. He says that at that time there was news that "a small plane hit WTC". Then he switched to hear what other pilots flying above Gudson are talking about, but they discussed same thing "a small commuter that hit WTC".
He got even more closer and noticed another BOEING 737. He says that the BOEING was flying the same way it usually does when going to landing from La Guardia destination, probably a little bit lower than usual.
And then suddenly this BOEING 737 changes his course making a very sharp curve, targeting the South WTC tower.
He shot it at the moment it hit the building.

Along with that growth comes the need for the books of the Apocrypha to be included in ESV Bibles, both for denominations that use those books in liturgical readings and for students who need them for historical purposes. More Evangelicals are also beginning to be interested in the Apocrypha, even though they don't consider it God's Word. The English Standard Version Bible with the Apocrypha , for which the Apocrypha has been commissioned by Oxford University Press, employs the same methods and guidelines used by the original translators of the ESV, to produce for the first time an ESV Apocrypha. This will be the only ESV with Apocrypha available anywhere, and it includes all of the books and parts of books in the Protestant Apocrypha, the Catholic Old Testament, and the Old Testament as used in Orthodox Christian churches. It will have a lovely pre-printed case binding, and will include a full-color map section, a table of weights and measures used in the Bible, and many other attractive features.
I like the ESV I bought in 2005, I bought it because I liked the RSV in general but am not a fan of the 'thees and thous' especially in the psalms. But when the RSV 2CE came out in 2006, I replaced it with that. Though there are times when the ESV translated verses are a lot smoother than the RSV 2CE. But it is not a Catholic involved translation, so I don't know whether I will buy one or not, but knowing me I probably will.
My Bible professor (catholic) told us that the ESV was designed for people who read the Bible very literally. Where it is possible to translate so that creation is compatible with science, for example, they do so. It was made, essentially, for Bible fundamentalists.
He didn't provide any quotations, though, so I'm afraid I can't back it up.
Yeah the ESV is a re-do of the RSV for Evangelicals. Like the RSV CE & RSV 2CE, the majority of the text is the RSV. So as the RSV it is very literal, as your intructor said. Out of all the Protestant versions of the Bible, I think it is one of the best. I like having a couple of Protestant versions available when talking with Protestant freinds, that way if I quote any Bible verses when taking about the Saints, Mary or any other Catholic teachings, I can use their own Bible to prove them.
Tim, if you want to read more about the potential reception of the ESV + Apocrypha, I'll refer you to my post just after it was listed on Amazon and CBD - see the comments for discussion. I will note that both retailers have pushed the anticipated release date up from Feb 1 to Jan 1 (or thereabouts).
I don't use the ESV, but if I were to get another one, this would probably be it.
Thanks Elshaddai! The ESV seems to be a very controversial Bible translation. (83 comments is quite a bit!) Having read a bit about it, and its intentions from the start, I guess I can see why. At the very least, I will have to take a look at it when it comes out.
I have pre-ordered a copy of the ESV with Apocrypha from Amazon.com. I would prefer that they do an actual 'Catholic Edition', but I guess that is up to some Catholic publisher to do that. I figure that if the ESV with Apocrypha proves to be profitable that a genuine Catholic Edition can't be far behind.
As far as it goes, the ESV is the RSV with about 4% of the text changed. Some of the changes seem to make no sense at all, but other changes are very good, for example Matthew 2:2.
One snag with having an official Catholic version of the ESV is that it would need an Imprimatur from bishop. That could take some time.
Knowing several of the translators of the ESV, I am a little startled at the characterization by a Catholic "Bible Professor" that the ESV was made for "fundamentalists". It was an attempt to provide a literal translations which was also literate - unlike some literal translations. And it is not guilty of pc "paraphrases" as some translations including the NRSV and the NAB are. Maybe the professor's bias was showing.


"This new residential quarter in the heart of Stratford City is an example of the group's strategy to significantly increase the densification of exceptional and highly connected retail destinations by adding offices, residential, hotels and other uses, where relevant," said Olivier Bossard, group chief development officer at Unibail.
Construction work is set to start in in the second quarter this year, with completion after 2023. The Cherry Park development will comprise 1200 new homes, along with a residents' gym, swimming pool, workspace and high-quality public areas.
"Once completed, this will be one of central London's largest residential rental schemes," said Stéphane Jalbert, managing director in Europe and Asia Pacific for Real Estate at PSP Investments.
A similar strategy has been adopted in the local market by players such Vicinity Centres, led by Grant Kelley, which has embarked on a disposal program and an ambitious effort to extend and redevelop some of its retail real estate into $1 billion mixed use assets.
Scentre Group, the owner and manager of Westfield malls in Australia, and QIC Global Real Estate are also looking for exposure to the residential sector as retail landlords around the world confront headwinds in their sector.
A disappointing contribution from the former Westfield portfolio to the earnings of its new owner forced Unibail to flag an earnings retreat in 2019 of about 8 per cent lower than its 2018 result.
Following last year's takeover the stock has traded on the local bourse through a Chess depositary instrument.
Unibail has also pressed the pause button on its £1.4 billion ($2.5 billion) project to open a third London mall in southern suburb Croydon, due to Brexit uncertainty and structural change in the retail sector.

Melchior's Broke Revue, Dan
Lords Of The Manor
FLAC $7.99
It's been a long time since the world heard from Dan Melchior's Broke Revue. Their last album, O Clouds Unfold!, was recorded in 2004 and was posthumously released in 2009. During their five year existence, the band's sound evolved from raw, blues-based rock 'n' roll to a more experimental / post-punk style. Since the band disbanded, Melchior has carried on with a solo career that has been prolific, to say the very least. The volume of singles, albums and cassettes that he's churned out over the past decade has been staggering.
Now, after a ten-year hiatus, Melchior has reassembled the Broke Revue and (in record time) recorded a new album. Lords of the Manor takes a very different turn from the band's last album. O Clouds Unfold! was an voluminous showcase of Melchior's infectious and melodic songwriting, with layers of extra instrumentation spanning 23 songs. Lords of the Manor is an entirely different beast; song structure and instrumentation are stripped to the bare bones, melody is ditched in favor of repetition, Dan's usual lyrical style is jettisoned for a far more minimal approach and the band's previous penchant for tightly-crafted two-to-three-minute rock songs has given way to long, sprawling improvisations. The result is dark, relentless and incredible.
