Wild Off-Road Rescue Proves Even Airplanes Need Help Sometimes
No injuries, but a Cessna and a side-by-side are pretty dinged up.
Nov 29, 2021 at 5:31pm ET
By: Christopher Smith
Off-roading is always an adventure. That's especially true when you're off-roading in Cessna 150, though technically, Cessnas are designed to operate off-ground. This one ended up on top of a mountain in Utah, and by that, we mean it crashed there. Thankfully there were no injuries, but with the airplane well and truly grounded, the only chance for recovery was an expedition of off-road vehicles to the summit.
Fortunately, we're not dealing with Mount Everest here. Matt's Off-Road Recovery got the call, and if you've seen some of our previous stories on this company, you'll know they have gear and expertise to spare. Still, the small aircraft went down in 9,000-foot peaks with no roads to the top. Getting there would require a gauntlet of rock-strewn trails to merely get close, and then they have to tow an airplane back out. So yeah, this recovery is something to behold.
Off-Roading Gone Wrong:
⠀ Watch Recovery Crew Rescue 7 Vehicles Stuck In Same Patch Of Sand
⠀ Ford Expedition Gets Stuck During Misjudged U-Turn While Off-Road
As such, several vehicles are part of the convoy, including the infamous Chevrolet Corvair station wagon modified into the Morvair off-roader. Considering the wheels on a Cessna 150 are exceedingly small, the crew brings a trailer onto which it will be loaded. Before that can happen, the fuel must be trained from the wing tanks and then the wings must be removed. But before any of that can happen, they need to get there. Towing a trailer. Over rocks.
A scouting trip prior to the recovery laid out the route, but it didn't help with the obstacles. The going was slow but steady, until a side-by-side in the group slipped off the trail and rolled into a large rock. It was far more dangerous than the video suggests, as without the rock being there, the small ORV would've tumbled endlessly down the mountain. When you do an emergency recovery before your main recovery, you know it's a tricky mission.

But the crew does eventually arrive at the crash site. Mercifully, a Cessna 150 is exceedingly light and with the wings removed, it's rather compact as well. That didn't stop the trailer from going on two wheels during the egress, but N7232S did survive the journey without any additional damage. As for the recovery crew, they have a whopper of a story we suspect none will ever forget.

Fulham complete signing of Norwich City defender
Jaik Bramley-Fenton
Fulham have completed the loan signing of Norwich City defender Michael Turner, according to the club's website.
Turner has joined Fulham
The deal sees the 31-year-old join the Cottagers until the end of the season, as they look to shore up what has been a leaky defence.
Turner could even make his debut this Saturday, where his new side face an in-form Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough.
The former Hull City man has seen limited playing time of late, having failed to feature for the Canaries since their 4-0 victory over bottom club Blackpool back in the beginning of February.
He told fulhamfc.com: "I'm very pleased to have the deal done.
"As soon as I learned of Fulham's interest I wanted to come here straight away. I just want to come in and try and make a big influence on the team."
With the SW6 outfit conceding a staggering 64 goals in the league this campaign, Turner's arrival will come as a timely boost for both fans and players alike.
Fulham have endured a torrid return to the second tier, following an equally disastrous 2013/2014 season, which ended their 13-year stay in the top flight.
Hovering only just above the drop zone, they will be hoping their new signing will hit the ground running and help them climb up the table.

Guess what two medical specialties are the most likely to be sued for medical malpractice?
If you said OB-GYNs, you got one correct.
Here's a hint about the second group: You'd be hard pressed to find a hospital without them.
But OB-GYNs and general surgeons aren't alone. Out of the 4,137 physicians over 25 specialties who participated in Medscape's survey for its Malpractice Report 2017, more than half (55%) have been named in a malpractice lawsuit personally or as part of a group.
These groups also tended to have the highest malpractice premiums.
2% were involved in 10 or more lawsuits.
The majority (89%) of the physicians in the study who were involved in a malpractice lawsuit felt they were unwarranted.
So how can the physicians avoid malpractice lawsuits?
Cultivate a healthy and open relationship with their patients. That doesn't mean they must become their patients new best friend or spend hours on end with them, but physicians should be friendly, ask questions and listen to their patients' fears and concerns, learn from them and give honest feedback.
Provide clear and concise documentation. Every step of care and medical decision making needs to be documented so that it's unambiguous. Documentation that's incomplete or inadequate can open them up to malpractice lawsuits.
Physicians also need to make sure they date, time stamp and sign each entry. And when in doubt whether something is important enough to be document, err on the side of caution and document it.
Manage expectations. Physicians can manage their patients' expectations by being 100% honest and keeping the lines of communication open. Patients need to know step by step what is going on, when it's going to happen, possible outcomes, etc.
Show empathy. Doctors need to put themselves in their patients' shoes. If something is annoying to your physicians, like not having a reply to a call or email in a timely fashion, it'll probably annoy patients too. Having physicians step into their patients' shoes and see things through their eyes will help them identify better with their patients and help build a beneficial patient/physician relationship.
Ask for help. Physicians at your facility study long and hard to learn everything they can about their specialty. But no one person knows it all. If something is perplexing encourage the physicians at your facility to ask for help, such as asking for a colleague's opinion. But no matter what, encourage your doctors not to go it alone when in doubt.

The collection will feature 15 products, including makeup brushes, eyeshadow, bronzer, setting spray, lipstick, lipgloss and highlighter.
According to Jerrod, these products will land in the US on February 15, 2018. For us Australian's, we will have to find out a way to get our hands on the amazing new products.


Glen Chapple says Lancashire must find a way of dealing with England call-ups if they are to enjoy success in County Championship cricket.
Coach Chapple oversaw Lancashire's third four-day relegation in seven seasons since they won the Division One title back in 2011, going down by virtue of fewer wins than Nottinghamshire.
The point docked for a slow over-rate in the home defeat against Yorkshire in late July hurt them badly but Chapple also feels a host of Lions and other representative call-ups for series such as the North v South one-day series in March proved an issue.
Liam Livingstone and Matthew Parkinson missed two Championship matches due to a Lions one-day series.
Livingstone also missed their tour to Dubai while on Test duty in New Zealand, as did Alex Davies, Keaton Jennings, Saqib Mahmood and Parkinson, who were all playing for the North in Barbados.
"Moving forward we have to work out how to combat selections," said Chapple.
"We've got players who we're proud of that play representative cricket, who we want to play representative cricket for England. But we have to maintain our strength whilst that happens.
"At times this year, we've failed in that regard. But it's certainly not through lack of effort.
"With the squad that we've got, I think the players and the coaches would accept that we've underperformed in four-day cricket. We'll regroup.
"There's a lot of good things happened along the way, a lot of good cricket played.
"Everybody who's interested in cricket should know that Division One is tough.
"We've gone down on equal points with Notts, so it's been close. But we would think that in a reasonable season, we would finish mid-table and would expect to be good enough to challenge for the Championship.
"Over the course of a career, you're bound to have seasons where you struggle, and I think it's really important we learn from that - individuals learn from it and the coaching team learns from it.
"We have to look forward. It's all about how we progress from here.
The highlight of Lancashire's season was reaching a seventh Finals Day earlier this month; however they were beaten in the semi-final by eventual champions Worcestershire.
After winning the competition in 2015, the Lightning failed to get out of the group in 2016 and 2017.
Chapple was also encouraged with some of their performances in the Royal London one-day Cup, but they missed out on a knockout berth.
"From sitting here last year, we were happy with our performance in four-day cricket with every reason to look forward to a successful campaign this year," he said.
"But we were disappointed with our performances in one-day cricket. And it's almost flipped on its head.
"The quality of cricket we played in the one-day stuff was good, although we can still look to do better.
Lancashire held their annual end of season awards dinner on Friday with seamer Tom Bailey winning the Player of the Year award following his 64 Championship wickets.

Q: Creating directory/file name rules for .gitignore I'd like to set up some rules in my .gitignore whereby any directory or file with a name containing "_nogit" will be ignored.
Examples:

*

*../videos_nogit/...

*bigvideo_nogit.mp4

*assets/_nogit/bigvideos...

Thanks--

A: If you have a line in your .gitignore file that does not have slashes in it, then git treats it like a shell glob pattern. Thus, adding *_nogit* to your .gitignore will ignore all of those files.

Israel launches large-scale attack against Syria
The Israeli army launched a large-scale attack against the Syrian air-defense system and Iranian targets in Syria in response to an Israeli F-16 fighter being shot down by missiles from Syria on Saturday morning.
Twelve targets, including three air-defense batteries and four Iranian targets that are part of Iran's military establishment in Syria were attacked, said a statement issued by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).
During the attack, anti-aircraft missiles were fired towards Israel, triggering alarms that were heard in northern Israel, said the Israeli army.
The IDF said in a statement that it will "act determinately against such severe violations of Israeli sovereignty by Iran and Syria and will continue to act as necessary."
The IDF also added that it is "ready for various scenarios and will continue to act according to situation assessments."
Israel aircraft attacked a number of Iranian targets in Syria in response to an Iranian Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) that was launched at Israeli territory and was intercepted by the Israeli army earlier Saturday.

The IDF said that during the attack one Israeli F-16 fighter jet was hit and crashed. The two pilots were forced to abandon the fighter jet by parachute after the aircraft was hit. One pilot was in serious condition while the other was lightly wounded.
Earlier, the IDF said that a combat helicopter successfully intercepted an Iranian UAV that was launched from Syria and infiltrated Israel. In response, the IDF targeted Iranian targets in Syria.
'Playing with fire'
Israel's military said Saturday Iran and Syria were "playing with fire" but that it was not seeking an escalation after a confrontation resulted in large-scale Israeli air strikes inside Syria.

Israeli military spokesman Jonathan Conricus made the comments after Saturday's confrontation, the most serious between arch foes Israel and Iran since the start of the Syrian civil war in 2011.
"This is the most blatant and severe Iranian violation of Israeli sovereignty in the last years," Conricus said, referring to what he described as an Iranian drone entering Israeli airspace from Syria. "That's why our response is as severe as it is."

Manntech's custom facade access solution befit a dynamic, complex structure
In order to maintain one of the world's tallest buildings, Manntech devised a custom solution to match the dynamic architectural design of China's Shanghai Tower.
Standing at 632m tall, the Shanghai Tower of China is the third supertall high-rise building in the city's Pudong area and financial district. Designed with a soft vertical spiral, that rotates at a 120 degree twist and tapers to approximately 45 percent of its base footprint, the Shanghai Tower is comprised on 128 floors, with five floors below grade.
When maintaining the building's glass façade, its highly complex, double skin façade, multiple large atrium spaces, and dynamic shape posed challenges. In order to overcome these challenges, BMUs were required within the double-skin enclosures to navigate the complex connections between the facades. The building's sheer height and twisting profile also complicated access and maintenance for the exterior façade. Additionally, the lack of traditional space on the rooftop meant that Manntech was required to develop a customised approach in order to access the building's highest levels.
To maintain the building, it was categorised into nine zones. Zone 1, the Podium, was maintained using Bosun's chairs, davits, and AWPs. Serviced by several systems, the curved gold-surface found on the majority of the façade's surface was cleaned by workers using Bosun's chairs that were safely suspended from a monorail system that ran along the high point of the roof. A vertical lift rolled between locations on the ground allowed for the servicing of the lower exterior areas of the podium, while the ends of the podium were serviced using a platform suspended from davits on the terrace, as well as drop-through sleeves accessed from the roof of the podium.
Zones 2-8, the exterior, was maintained using wall-mounted BMUs fixed to horizontal tracks that encircled the building. Zone 9, the Building Crown, was maintained with a track-mounted carriage boom BMU. The track consists of two parallel rails that are mounted onto pedestals on the curving and sloping roof surface situated at the crown's edge.
Lateral stabilisation was achieved by securing BMU platforms to intermittent tie-back receptors that had been installed in the exterior curtain wall, at every third floor. Exterior BMUs were integrated into the building structure by connecting them to tubular railings, which themselves are embedded into concrete pedestals connected to the floor plate.
Every building maintenance unit used throughout the project featured safety mechanisms, including multiple safety switches and redundancies, as well as manual trolley locks and a horizontal pivot support.
The dynamic, twisting profile and double-skin enclosure of Shanghai Tower required an advanced building maintenance system, deliverable by Manntech. Essentially, four different surfaces required the utmost attention – the interior of the crown, the building exterior, and the two surfaces of each atrium. Nonetheless, despite the project's complexity, Manntech's building maintenance units were all carefully integrated into Shanghai Tower's structure, corresponding to its sleek, tapered profile.
Learn how the future of building access solutions is developing
As a pioneer of innovative facade access solutions, Manntech's future in building maintenance remains as bright as ever.
Custom access solutions for extreme weather and climate conditions
Extreme changes to weather and climate conditions require Manntech to continuously devise new custom solutions for the safe operation of Manntech BMUs.

With a content distribution plan, of course!
How do you get inside their 'bubble'?
It's imperative to produce a content distribution plan as without one you're talking, talking, talking and, actually, making great waves. But those waves are in the middle of the Atlantic ocean and absolutely no one is feeling even a ripple from your efforts - they aren't looking for you, they can't find you, they don't know you're someone who has the answers to their problems.
Yes, your content is drowning in a vast ocean filled with many other bloggers, PR execs and other content creators all vying for the space you need your content to be heard in.
What budget for your services do they have?
A great way of finding out who is currently engaging with your content is the use of Google Analytics and social media platform in-built analytics, such as Facebook Insights. Both of these platforms identify the gender and age group of people engaging with your content. Google Analytics also gives information regarding the interests of your visitors, i.e. luxury shoppers, foodies etc.
For you to see success, you need to decide what success looks like for you. This is best worked out before you get started promoting so you don't create unrealistic goals. Use previous data for web traffic and conversions, so speak to your sales team or visit Google Analytics to identify new and recurring visitor numbers, plus conversion rates.
Think about your growth goal with a percentage - by the end of the first quarter of content promotion, how much would you have liked to have seen reach increase by? What about by the end of the year?
Remember to include key events that may skew these figures (for good or bad) in your overall marketing strategy, i.e. that big seminar you're hosting in August, or a key content marketer leaving your team in April, can all have a huge impact on your anticipated goals.
Which platforms are you going to focus your distribution efforts on? Do you need to incorporate some traditional or print promotion, or is it all digital? What platforms do your buyer personas most commonly engage with you on?
If you're an accountancy firm, you're probably best to spend your time building your company profile on LinkedIn, PLUS the personal profiles of key employees/senior figures on LinkedIn. Whereas a beauty salon is going to see the highest engagements from Instagram and Facebook.
Don't just focus on social media because it's "there" either, taking time to review your personas should help you to rule out personas that aren't right for your audience. Consider email marketing or producing long-form content like ebooks and blogs if that is what your audience prefers. If they want webinars, produce them!
We absolutely recommend reviewing your progress every quarter, at a minimum, to analyse whether your current activities are working effectively for you or not. Don't be afraid to change up your efforts if the numbers prove success is looking unlikely - content marketing is all about constant change and improvements.


Kenta saw her leg get caught by a chain and his eyes instantly turned red with fury. He stood next to Reni and started to grow very large. He stood as tall as an elephant. His fur turned bright red and he grew three more tails which were now spiky instead of a smooth fur. His teeth grew very long and very sharp and he had flames coming out from the side of his mouth. Instead of howling now, it turned into a roar, like a lion. He looked straight at these hunters and roared at them, while creating a firey ring around them, which formed into a dome. He then stomped down his right paw and the fire dome pushed out very fast towards the hunters. It was like a big wall of fire that was nearly impossible to escape unharmed.
Kenta flinched a bit when she held onto him but he looked into her eyes with his fire red eyes and then the color of his eyes changed back to green and he slowly started to turn back into his normal wolf form. He sat on the ground and looked down. He didn't want to make eye contact with her, not after he let his other side out. He was not proud of it since it hurt people.
Reni had seen him form and she smiled cutely and said " turn into your human self before i drink all your blood " and she waited till he went human form and grabbed his hand and dragged off small hut she knew she used to hide from demon hunters.
As he had turned into his human form, the world was a little blurry for him. It usually happened after he used so much of his power in a fight. He saw that they were going deep into the woods and he was getting a little nervous now. "Where are we going?" he knew since she had his hand he couldn't go anywhere and had to follow her. He hoped it was someplace safe but he didn't want anything bad to happen.
when they went inside the hut and made him sit down and she put shield around the hut to protect from demons and then looked at him and bit her wrist and so she started to bleed and put at his face and then said " drink it carm you down "
Kenta looked at her like she was crazy. "I can't do that, It will put you in great danger and I can't risk it." He said and he lightly moved her arm back towards her. He didn't want to endanger her, as if he did drink her blood, he would become addicted and would probably never let go until he drank all of her blood, possibly killing her.
reni glared and then said " its fine i be ok im stronger than i look and im half tengu , half wolf and im goddess its fine " and she put wrist out once to him and hoped take she knew it would help him .
He sniffed her wrist and flinched a little bit at the smell, since it was not a common blood smell. I wonder if my blood smells like this too. It's kind of foul. "How do you know this will help me? You barely know what I am. In my one form I could probably kill you right now, I'm not safe, so why are you risking your life to help me?" he looked at her with his concerned, green, glowing eyes.
Reni giggled and said " its kinda hard kill me i have blood of a peach from my mother it heals demons and they eat if they wanted to but the wind spirit in me protect me and i trust you " and looked at him waiting .
Kenta looked at her and sighed, he knew he wasn't going to get her to think any different. So he took her wrist and pulled her towards him making her sit on his lap. He wrapped his arm around her waist to make sure she wouldn't fall off or move around while he was doing this. He then licked her wrist first to see what her blood tasted like and flinched a bit since it didn't taste that great. He sighed and let his canines grow sharp, then he sank his teeth into her wrist and started to drink her blood. He had his eyes open, and his eyes started to change colors while he was drinking. They started green then they changed to blood red, then to a pale blue, then to a very light green. He felt a rush through his head so he decided to stop before things got out of hand. He retracted his teeth from her wrist and licked it clean for her so it would heal back up quicker. He then licked his lips clean of any blood that was left. He didn't know what to do.
Reni looked at him and smiled and she felt bit fainted and rested her head on his neck and it first time she let anyone drink her blood , she felt happy but also nervous of what she had done.
Kenta just stared at the wall in front of him. He continued to hold onto Reni so she could rest. He felt a strange feeling rush through his head. It was like a surge of power, or loneliness. He couldn't tell anymore, but then something struck in his chest, like someone grabbed onto his heart. He grabbed his chest and held it tight. He started to breath heavier and decided to lay Reni down on the floor lightly so he wouldn't wake her and he walked outside very quietly. He felt his heart beating fast, faster than usual. He looked down at his hands and they were shaking. His eyes turned blood red again, and finally his heart started to slow pace again. He sighed and wondered what had happened. He walked back into the hut and sat back down, thinking about what could've happened. Instead he decided to just leave it be and closed his eyes.
Reni woke after abit and stood up and wandered what had happened and looked at him blushed alittle and looked her wrist and blushed more as thought of his lips around wrist and tried to hide happiness .
Kenta opened his eyes and looked around trying to remember where he was. He noticed Reni on the flood smiling and he laughed, "Good morning? Are you all right, you look happy. Did something please you?" He was oblivious as to what was making her happy so he just looked out of the window across from him and smiled, "Its nice and light outside. The sunlight always feels so good on my fur." He then stood up and stretched. When he stretches he can almost touch the ceiling.
Reni blushed and said " maybe " and walked outside and looked around and danced around alittle and smiled and she looked all cute like and then she remembered that there was festival and then went back in hut and asked " tonight there will festival would be my date to it ? "
Kenta smiled when he saw her dancing thinking she was really cute. He was surpised when she asked him to be her date though. "You want me to be your date? Well I guess theres no harm in that. Why not, it sounds fun." He looked at her and smiled.
Reni smiled and blew kiss and him and then thought good time to get back home and get something to eat and parents probabley wandered where she was .
Kenta was shocked at what she just did and smiled a bit. He didn't know what he should do but when he thought about kissing her he got alittle excited so he walked up to quickly and grabbed around her waist and pulled her towards his body a little more rough than he would've wanted it to be and he pressed his lips against hers. He was a little over excited so after a couple of seconds he let go and looked at her, wondering if he should leave now.
reni did not see it coming blushed madly after he let go put hands over face and was too shocked to say anything and felt bit embrassed and it was her first kiss and felt abit mute .
Kenta felt a little ashamed that he pushed himself to do that to her. He walked towards the door and turned into his wolf form. I'm sorry, I don't know what got into me. I will leave now. I'll meet you near my tree when you want to go to the festival. If you still want to go anyway. He then walked out of the door and disappeared into the woods.
reni blussed wanted say something but she did not know what to say and went home she found dress pink and green festival dress to wear and had her blue hair and had it down and headband and waited by the tree and waited for him.
Kenta was already up within the tree branches waiting for her. By the time she got there he jumped out of the tree right beside her and said, "Bout time you got here, I was beginning to worry you weren't going to show." He smiled and laughed a bit, hoping that the evening wasn't going to be awkward because of what had happened earlier that day.
reni smiled and nodded and she did know what she should say and grabbed his arm and went look at fireworks and all little prizes at all the stalls and wanted win some of them .
Kenta saw the amazement in her eyes and smiled at how cute she looked. "Do you want to play one of these games? I think you could easily win something." He then paid the vender some money so she could play a game.

I have a story to tell you guys. I was blinded and talked to by Jesus, but then a guy named Ananias saved me. YAY! I' Christian now.
The crowd was angered by Paul.
After this public outcry against Paul, the centurion wanted to throw Paul into jail, but then realized that Paul was a Roman citizen so he couldn't.
We won't eat or drink until Paul is gone for good!!
The centurion decided that instead of listening to the Jews, he would hide Paul in Caesarea and trust a friend, Felix the governor, to watch Paul.
Hey there! I'm Paul. I'm from Cilicia. Do you want to hear my story!?
You're the annoying one the centurion spoke of. We'll hear your story at court.

AIIB Chief Says Investing in More Chinese Projects Would Improve Asset Quality
By Wang Liwei and Liu Jiefei
Jin Liqun, president of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, said that the bank's investing more in China will help it improve its asset quality. Photo: VCG
The head of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) said it could lend more money to China's infrastructure projects to help improve its asset quality because they are less risky than those in other developing countries.
AIIB President Jin Liqun's words come as rising debt levels in some developing Asian countries have added concerns that the global economy would worsen further amid widespread headwinds.
"Chinese assets are of good quality, and ratings agencies are relatively reassured" about investments there, Jin told Caixin. Lending to some developing Asian countries would increase their debt burden, he said. But investing more in China will help the bank to improve its asset quality, allowing it to invest more in infrastructure projects in countries of higher risk. "Ratings agencies will be upset if all of the projects are in risky countries," he said.
Jin said he wanted to keep AIIB's lending to China to below 10% of the bank's total lending. The current figure is well below that threshold.
The AIIB currently has only one project in China, which amounted to about 3% of the bank's total lending at the end of 2018, according to bank data. The project, which was approved in December 2017, aimed to improve air quality by replacing coal with natural gas in rural villages around Beijing. The AIIB agreed to lend $250 million to finance the project at the request of state-owned Beijing Gas Group Co. Ltd. — providing 32.85% of the total cost.
The Chinese government said when it founded the AIIB that it would not seek funding in the bank's first few years of operation, so it mainly considered providing support for Chinese enterprises, said Yee Ean Pang, director general of the AIIB's investment operations, when it announced the project.
Founded in January 2016, the AIIB had approved 34 projects and issued $7.5 billion in loans by the end of 2018.
As the lead founder and a major shareholder of AIIB, China stated clearly that it wanted the majority of AIIB's capital to finance infrastructure projects in other developing countries, and would borrow from AIIB in cross-border projects, Jin said.
However, with cross-border projects going poorly for the AIIB, Jin suggested the bank consider the Beijing gas project, which was in line with the Paris Agreement's call to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Weird Rules People In The White House Have To Follow Under The Trump Administration
Donn Saylor
Updated March 27, 2018 38.1k views10 items
The American president has a lot of power, so special rules to protect the safety and integrity of the high-ranking office must be a part of any administration. But the rules members of the Trump Administration must follow are unusual even by Washington standards.
Donald Trump instituted a very complicated set of weird rules for White House employees. And the mandates make most people scratch their heads. It also seems like the president's vetting process for potential employees is rather questionable. Few other American presidents have made as many controversial decisions as President Trump. Some people might even say that Trump makes needlessly chaotic rules just to confuse people.
Who's to say that members of Trump's cabinet even understand all of the bizarre White House guidelines? Everyone's just a little bit baffled.
Female Staffers Must "Dress Like Women"
Photo: US Federal Government / Wikimedia Commons / Public Domain
Donald Trump's campaign was plagued with stories of alleged assault. Therefore, it's not entirely surprising the current administration has some archaic views about women. Specifically, they are very interested in how women dress in the White House.
Trump has purportedly said that female staffers must "dress like women." Seemingly, that means they have to wear dresses. Also unsurprising, there is virtually no dress code for men, but they might have to keep hair neatly groomed and wear Trump-brand ties.
Employees Must Sign A Non-Disclosure Agreement That Lasts After They Leave The White House
Photo: Gage Skidmore / Wikimedia Commons / CC BY-SA 2.0
Donald Trump sure seems to love non-disclosure agreements. He relied on them for decades in his business and personal affairs, so of course he implements them in his presidential reign. And given the fact that none of the people he fires speak out against him, the NDAs clearly work. So, if you plan to work in Trump's White House, prepare to sign a form committing to silence for the rest of your days. The president stands by his NDAs, saying:
I don't know, there could be some kind of a law that you can't do this. But when people are chosen by a man to go into government at high levels and then they leave government and they write a book about a man and say a lot of things that were really guarded and personal, I don't like that. I mean, I'll be honest. And people would say, oh, that's terrible, you're taking away his right to free speech. Well, he's going in.
Personal Cell Phones Aren't Allowed At Work

Donald Trump has proven, more than once, that he has very little patience for those who leak information. To combat the issue, Trump refuses to let staffers use personal cell phones at work. Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders stands by the decision, noting:
[The] security and integrity of the technology systems at the White House is a top priority for the Trump administration, [so] all personal devices for both guests and staff will no longer be allowed in the West Wing.
To recap, the security and integrity of the technology systems at the White House are top priorities, while the security and integrity of the White House employees are not.
There Are Special Travel Rules To Stop Unauthorized Private Jet Usage

More than one Trump Administration official came under fire for using private jets on the taxpayers' dime. Tom Price (pictured) was fired for this reason. Director of the Office of Management and Budget Mick Mulvaney had to draw up new rules as a result.
Now, "government-owned, rented, leased, or chartered aircraft should not be used for travel by government employees, except with specific justification - per the Office of Management and Budget."
Security Clearances Are No Longer Difficult To Get
Photo: Voice of America / Wikimedia Commons / Public Domain
Once upon a time in America, it was a big deal to get a White House security clearance. To obtain one, you had to submit to an in-depth background check that plumbed the depths of your past, your employment history, your personal life, and your criminal record. The Trump Administration, however, will seemingly give a security clearance to anyone.
As of February 2018, administration officials vowed to restore more comprehensive security clearance approval procedures. White House Chief of Staff John Kelly said in a memo:
The American people deserve a White House staff that clearly meets the highest standards and that has been carefully vetted, especially those who work closely with the president or handle sensitive national security information... We should, and in the future, must, do better.
Senior Officials Are Exempt From Certain Rules
Watch any interview with Donald Trump or his employees, tune in to any Sarah Huckabee Sanders press conference, and you'll surely notice that Trump and his team seem to have only passing acquaintanceships with the truth.
Their fondness for "alternative facts" brings them under close scrutiny from ethics and watchdog groups. Because of this, Trump has exempted his senior officials from established ethics rules. Not only are they given free rein to bend the truth, they rarely face consequences for their actions.

CARMEL, Ind. – Stratice Healthcare, a leading healthcare IT company providing electronic ordering solutions connecting physician practice offices and hospital systems with suppliers and providers of medical equipment, supplies and other patient care services, today announced an expansion of its eOrdersPlus™ platform to include a secure internet based portal for both physicians and suppliers to initiate and manage patient medical orders.
The expansion allows Stratice's e-ordering solution that is embedded within physicians' existing electronic workflows and EHR systems to provide universal access regardless of physician practice patient care management technology platform. The e-ordering solution further increases suppliers' connectivity to treating healthcare professionals to ensure patients' orders are more efficiently and reliably managed to promote increased continuity and quality of care. This direct electronic connectivity replaces an otherwise inefficient, unreliable and largely paper-based ordering process currently requiring multiple phone calls, duplicative faxes and time-consuming data entry of paper-based orders.
"We are pleased to build additional value into our eOrdersPlus solution with the addition of the Physician Order Entry and Supplier Order Entry web-based portals. Clearly, with the most recent round of Competitive Bid rate cuts and expansion of those rates to rural markets, suppliers are anxious to reduce unnecessary operating costs associated with the phone calls, faxes, and manual processes related to attempting to complete detailed written orders for patients. The physician community has responded well to our platform and recognizes the efficiencies related to managing these burdensome processes with a technology solution," stated Jeff Woodham, President of Stratice Healthcare.
News of these latest enhancements to the eOrdersPlus solution suite follows on the heels of a string of recent successes for Stratice including the company's national rollout of eOrdersPlus to a widespread base of Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems providing direct connectivity to over 300,000 healthcare professionals. The company's embedded EHR e-ordering solution supports its rapidly growing national network of suppliers and providers of medical equipment, supplies and patient care needs who service the patients' full spectrum of payer coverages including Medicare, Medicaid and commercial health plans.
"Stratice continues to build market momentum through its free network enrollment process and rapid on-boarding of local, regional and now national suppliers. This expanding network of credentialed suppliers provides physicians and their patients choice within a reliable, broad fulfillment network regardless of patient location, specific product need and payer coverage. With such dramatic cuts in reimbursement rates within the HME/DME sector, the industry must quickly evolve to adopt more electronic means of driving operational efficiencies. Stratice's electronic ordering and patient care solutions are clearly a market necessity and in high demand given multiple industry dynamics," stated Jason Farmer, CEO of Stratice Healthcare.

Victor H. Metcalf (1904–1906)
Victor Howard Metcalf was born on October 10, 1853, in Utica, New York. He attended Yale University as an undergraduate for only three years but earned a law degree from Yale Law School in 1876. Metcalf established a private practice before moving to Oakland, California, in 1878.
He became an influential member of the Republican Party and a prominent lawyer in Oakland before being elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, serving from 1899 to 1904. In Congress, Metcalf sat on the House Committee on Naval Affairs, where he pressed for the construction of a large battleship navy. Metcalf became secretary of commerce and labor following the resignation of George B. Courtelyou; he remained in that post from July 1904 to December 1906.
President Theodore Roosevelt appointed Metcalf secretary of the Navy after the resignation of Charles Bonaparte. His tenure as Navy secretary (1906-1908) coincided with the sailing of the "Great White Fleet." Poor health forced him to resign from the cabinet. Thereafter, he returned to California and worked in the fields of banking and law. Victor Howard Metcalf died in Oakland, California, on February 20, 1936.

Due to her husband's position, they have been living in Brno/Hustopece for 1 year now. This is their 19th move, and their 12th year living outside of the USA.
I love the friendly people I have met. It is a lonely place when you can not speak the language. Those that take the time to say "hello" and include you in their conversations make my day! I love that Brno isn't ruined by tourism yet, it feels Czech. You don't walk around and only hear tourist groups talking. On the other hand, I wish there was information on the cultural kiosks, in English, so I would know what was going on and could understand how to get tickets. I wish there was a sign ordinance in the city. The beauty of the city is becoming covered up by advertisement signs. Sad! Hustopece is a lovely community and could be the "gateway to the vineyards" if marketed correctly.
There needs to be an International Women's Club for ALL expats. This would allow us to meet people since the Czech language is difficult to learn in a short period of time. There needs to be a place for expats to meet Czech women who speak English and other languages, too. HR departments should have this as part of their networking for employees.
There needs to be an International school to attract the bright young families. Without a well known accredited international school, you won't attract the bright young families. They will all go to Prague. Their needs to be coordination between realtors for locating good rental housing for international families. Also, these companies need to help families find medical services which speak their language.
What is your favourite place in Brno which is really unique?
I enjoy the view from Petrov Hill under the Cathedral looking out over the city. I love to take guests to see the dining room and have a drink at the bar inside the Royal Ricc Hotel. It is something you don't see in the states!

MV Piano Land is a cruise ship in service for Astro Ocean, a newly-formed Chinese cruise line.[2] She originally entered service in April 1995 as Oriana for P&O Cruises, and was named by Queen Elizabeth II.[4] She was built by Meyer Werft at their shipyard in Papenburg, Germany, and measures 69,153 gross tons.[4] As Oriana, she held the Golden Cockerel trophy in recognition of being the fastest ship in the P&O Cruises fleet from 1997, when she succeeded her fleetmate Canberra,[5] to her departure in 2019.[6]
2 General characteristics
3 Design and construction
4.1 1995–2019: Oriana
4.2 2019–present: Piano Land
When she was built in 1995, Oriana was the first new ship commissioned for P&O Cruises, and the first to be designed specifically for the British cruise market.[7] At 69,153 gross tons, she was one of the largest cruise ships in the world.[8] She was also designed in the style of an ocean liner to facilitate long distance voyages and world cruises. She was the second ship to carry the name Oriana, and was named in tribute to the first Oriana, which served for Orient Line and P&O from 1960 to 1986. After a lengthy campaign, P&O Cruises were permitted to allocate the new Oriana the call sign 'GVSN', which was the same call sign as the first Oriana.[9]
From 1995 when she was built, until 2000, Oriana was owned by P&O. In 2000 P&O de-merged its cruise ship operations, with ownership of Oriana transferring to the new company, P&O Princess Cruises.[10] In 2003 P&O Princess merged with Carnival Corporation to form Carnival Corporation & plc.[11] Despite these changes of ownership, Oriana was operated by P&O Cruises throughout.
In 2006 she was re-registered to Bermuda so that weddings could be conducted on board,[12] and as a result, her call sign was changed to ZCDU9. In November 2011, Oriana became a ship exclusively for adults.[13]
In August 2019, Oriana was sold to the newly-formed Chinese cruise line Astro Ocean and renamed Piano Land.[2]
General characteristics[edit]
Oriana is 260 metres (853 ft) long, with a beam of just over 32 metres (105 ft), and a draught of 7.9 metres (26 ft), which varies up to 8.2 m depending on load. There is a 69,153 GT and a maximum passenger capacity of 1,928. Outside passenger deck space is 105,000 square feet (9,800 m2). Power is provided by four MAN B&W Diesels generating a total of 47,750 kW giving the ship a service speed of 24 knots (44 km/h).
Design and construction[edit]
P&O wanted the new Oriana to be built in the United Kingdom, but there were no longer British shipyards capable of completing such an order, so P&O Cruises looked overseas.
Two of the three main designers, Sweden's Robert Tillberg and British designer John McNeece, spent a considerable amount of time on board SS Canberra investigating the needs of British passengers, so as to include as many of Canberra's features as possible into Oriana's design. Oriana's single funnel is designed to resemble Canberra's twin funnels. She has a single deck of balconies reserved for suites, mini suites and staterooms to cater for the growing desire for balconies on board.
John McNeece and his London-based team of designers were engaged by P&O to bring the British look to the high-revenue generating interiors of the ship, such as Anderson's, Lord's Tavern, the Knightsbridge Shops, the Emporium, Harlequins, the Casino, the Photo Gallery, the Pacific Lounge, and related public spaces, as well as on-board information graphics.
Service history[edit]
1995–2019: Oriana[edit]
Oriana in Eidfjord, Norway, in 2008, in her original livery
When she entered service Oriana was one of the largest cruise ships in the world, and the largest ship built in Germany since 1914. Since then tonnages have increased as economies of scale make larger ships more profitable to operate. Nowadays most new cruise ships have a tonnage of around 100,000 GT. Annually undertaking world cruises with fleetmate Aurora, she normally operates cruises within the Mediterranean, the Canaries, Madeira and the Baltic seas.
In December 2006 the Oriana underwent a £12 million refit in Bremerhaven, Germany. Coinciding with the refit she was re-registered from Britain to Bermuda[14] so that weddings could be held at sea. Oriana was also home to 'Oriana Rhodes', a restaurant designed by the celebrity chef Gary Rhodes in the former Curzon Room. This was later replaced by 'Sindhu' by chef Atul Kochhar, which remained in place until Oriana's departure from the P&O fleet. Other modifications during the 2006 refit included the extension of the cricket themed 'Lord's Tavern', and refurbishment of the children's play areas. All her cabins were restyled to include one of four new colour schemes, new curtains, carpets, beds, linen and duvets. During a 2011 refit at Blohm and Voss shipyard, Oriana's stern was remodelled and she was also converted to serve an adults only market, with the children's play areas removed and replaced with additional passenger cabins.
During cruises in four consecutive years to 2014 the ship suffered outbreaks of norovirus;[15] about 400 passengers were affected in 2012, earning the vessel the nickname of "the plague ship".[16] In 2014 passengers, angry at not being told of the earlier outbreaks, took legal action against P&O Cruises.
In June 2018, P&O Cruises announced that Oriana would be leaving the fleet in August 2019.[17] Oriana departed on her final cruise, to Norway, the North Cape and Northern Ireland, on 23 July 2019 and returned on 9 August.[18]
2019–present: Piano Land[edit]
In August 2019, Oriana joined the newly-formed Chinese cruise line Astro Ocean, and was renamed Piano Land.[2] The name was chosen in reference to the Chinese island of Gulangyu, which is associated with music and known as the 'Island of Music'.[19] Piano Land departed Southampton on 16 August 2019[20] and arrived in Xiamen, China on 20 September.[21] She was christened by Ni Chao, the Director of the Xiamen Municipal Committee and the Director of the Free Trade Commission, on 26 September.[22] Astro Ocean Cruises and the Piano Land made their debut in Shanghai on 8 November 2019 as the ship marked her maiden call in China's leading cruise port.
