1,000 Families Project: Living a Conscious, Socially-Aware Life
Justine McKnight
One family's dramatic makeover to a sustainable, more meaningful lifestyle in a beautiful part of the world.
In four short years I've had two babies, launched a business (and am about to launch a second), flipped a house, transitioned our family of four onto a completely plant-based, cruelty-free lifestyle, became an animal-rights activist and moved from Toronto, Ontario, to Maui, Hawaii. It's an all-or-nothing mentality that I attribute to being raised to truly believe in dreams, ideas, possibilities, and, above all else, myself.
My husband and I have been together for almost half our lives; we'll celebrate 14 years together this January and met when we were 14 and 16 years old.
Having babies has made us hyper-aware of every choice we make having a direct impact on the future of our species and our world. In everything we do, bringing more peace into this world and relieving suffering should be at the center of it. This has become the philosophy and hope with which we are raising our boys.
Going vegan and raising our children vegan wasn't automatically celebrated by our loving and supportive family. "No, Mom, they can't have ice cream anymore. Or those cookies. Is that vegan cake? Yes, they're getting enough protein and calcium!" was pretty much on repeat until the shift had been made and our extended family learned this different way of living. There's that magical word. Different. We are going to raise our family differently.
The neatest thing about bringing new life into his world is that you start with a fairly blank slate to work. This realization made my husband and I think long and hard about the changes and shifts we wanted to make to raise our kids with more awareness and less "stuff."
We decided that we didn't want to just stop at changing our diet and commitment to living cruelty-free, but extended those shifts to reducing the total amount of consumption in general. Birthday parties, holidays, and other special occasions were not going to be an endless cycle of "me, me, me" taking in gift after gift without a thought as to where this stuff was going to end up after the novelty wore off.
The toughest part about wanting our kids to be raised with less of what the majority of middle-class kids in North America distract themselves with was being clear with our families. This meant stressing limited time on tech devices and watching television but also limiting the overwhelming amount of new toys they will so easily expect at every occasion. Consume, waste, consume, waste. New, new, new.
Recognizing what these traditions are actually instilling in our children is only half the battle. As you can imagine, our own parents' reactions to this minimal approach to life plus a vegan diet was "You're taking all the fun out of grandparenting!" Children only know what you teach them, so this was going to have to be a collective effort if we wanted to keep this level of consciousness consistent.
Consciousness. There's another magical word.
Moving to Maui came from wanting to up the game a step further. We had visited once before and had done all the usual touristy things. We went on the best catamaran in maui, snorkeled with the exotic fish, whale watched, etc. But we also realized that Hawaii was exectly what we needed. We decided, "Yup, let's give this a try!" Hawaii possesses a magic that is just what the soul needs. Raising our kids next to the warm, healing waters of the ocean, having them immersed in the raw beauty of nature, waterfalls and eating an abundance of the best damn fruit available, is only the beginning of what Maui has to offer. There is a culture and community here that actively supports raising kids with minimal screen time, encouraging them to fully utilize the essence of childhood – imagination.
Our boys spend their time exploring, learning, creating and playing. We've recently introduced a 10-minute morning meditation with our oldest who now wakes up and says, "Let's mediate, Mom!" It's a habit that would make this world a radically different place if every child were taught it at such an impressionable age.
Now don't get me wrong, we are not perfect parents or a perfect family, because that doesn't exist. But we are bringing a completely different mentality than our parents did and are taking that as a sign that we are headed at least somewhere new.
With this complete life overhaul came the idea for a business. Launching my own business was just as hard (if not harder) than giving birth. Before I launched the business, I spoke to a friend who has had her own business for a year now. She told me to try and focus my efforts on marketing, by working with companies like Tatango. I totally agree that marketing is important! If I didn't do any marketing, no one would know that my business existed! Marketing can really boost the visibility of the business, allowing more people to hear about the company. Digital marketing is one of the best ways of marketing these days, so some business owners might want to consider finding some digital marketing consultants to help them get more website traffic. This could get more people purchasing products from the website. I listened to my friend's marketing advice too and I'm so glad that I did. When I did my own personal research into what launching a business would require, it dawned on me that there were so many things that needed doing, some of which had never crossed my mind before. I started to panic. Even some of the smallest things stressed me out, like where my registered office address would be. It wasn't until my friend told me to have a look at the registered office services visit yourcompanyformations.co.uk page for guidance that everything eventually began to fall into place. Thank goodness. But I knew that there was still a long road in front of me that I needed to conquer. It required the full support of my husband and family as well as the emotional stamina that a third baby would have demanded. HUMAN + MOTHER was born out of the hope to inspire other new parents to bring more awareness into their own journey through parenthood. Our baby wraps are made from the most sustainable fabric available and we have done things the hard way in order to do them the right way. We cut down on emissions by milling the fabric and manufacturing the products locally. We use minimal packaging and donate $3 from every wrap sold to two maternal care organizations. We want to represent what new business should look like. Becoming conscious, aware of what we do, what we keep repeating, is the only way to change for the better. Ghandi said it best when he said, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." Be here. Be now.

Maple Leaf Rag (1990)M Sherwood2018-10-31T13:31:17-04:00
Maple Leaf Rag premiered in 1990 at the City Center Theater in New York City. The last complete ballet to be choreographed by Martha Graham, the dance takes a sly look at the foibles of a contemporary choreographer (such as Graham herself) and gently mocks the plight of the artist in the throes of creation. With costumes by fashion designer Calvin Klein and a score featuring the music of Scott Joplin, the dance was immediately a favorite for Graham audiences. A ridiculous boomerang-shaped barre dominates the stage, the perfect prop for the cast of unruly characters that inhabit this ballet. Like figments of the imagination, these dancers enter and exit at will in a parody of movement themes drawn from classic Graham repertory.
Maple Leaf Rag is Martha Graham's humorous and loving tribute to the choreographic muse. It is also a fond tribute to the Scott Joplin music of her youth and to her long association with Louis Horst, her one-time mentor and lover. "Louis," she says at the very beginning of the dance, "play me the Maple Leaf Rag."

So today we learn that Evernote is starting a stand-alone Chinese incarnation. More info here.
The most common request we get from our Chinese users is to make Evernote faster, more reliable and better integrated with the rest of the Chinese Internet. Due to poor network connectivity between the US and China, there's only one way to definitively fix the problem: have a separate service in China. That's what we built.
They are actively preempting the likely scenario of a Chinese clone.
Using a separate brand will protect the existing brand from the usual concerns about cosying up to the Chinese government and their potentially problematic interpretation of data privacy.
Even more importantly this is an important part of the growth strategy of a "new style" software company. In the olden days (think Microsoft or, if you can remember that far back, Lotus) all the creative energy of the company went into developing more and more features for your product to make it richer for the sophisticated buyer. For a product like Evernote this is not an option, however. They may have maxed out on features already. So the primary options available for growth are platform (think Dropbox) and/or entering adjacent markets. And this is one hell of an adjacent market.
Some interesting discussion yesterday around the new European Angels Fund from the EIF. More information here.
First impression: A great idea. Instead of looking at companies and individual investments they look at the business angel. If they like you then there's a framework agreement and they match your investments. All of them, no cherry-picking allowed.
That seems like a huge advantage in terms of speed and aligning investor interests over other governmental co-investment programs where the co-investor needs to perform due diligence on the individual investment.
And apparently significant echo with a large number of "surprisingly qualified" candidates applying for inclusion in the program. So far so good.
But it's not clear that this is for every investor.
On the the one hand you might have a "drive-by" business angel doing lots of transactions, keeping a relative distance from the company (possibly because they invested as part of a syndicate), and moving on to the next transaction. Their motives for EAF involvement could very well be to make more cash available and thereby have more capital available until the next round. Possibly keeping some of their cash to participate in the next round. That seems to make sense.
On the other hand you might have the "hands-on" angel doing a much smaller number of transactions, but investing significant time and effort in the day-to-day business of the company. Let's say 1-2 days a week and more in case of need or crisis. This type of angel will want a special price for their shares that acknowledges the unique contribution they are making. You may even argue that their investment is not so much a cash infusion but the mechanism for capturing the value that is being created by the "hands-on" angel. In this case the unique valuation required by the angel would then also be extended to the EAF co-investor. That does not make much sense. If more cash is needed it would be smarter to look for additional hands-on help to join the investment round.
Just found this great post by David Skok on the previous post's topic of pricing power for early sales. He calls it multi-axis pricing. Must-read. I especially like his comments on "emotional willingness to pay".
Several discussions with entrepreneurs in the last weeks about product pricing. Both for consumer and SME offerings the price pressure is huge, similar products brought to market by startups with high amount of capital are given away for free or for very little.
And, at least for a certain category of product/market (more later on "zero-gravity" business models), affordable pricing is a key to rapid market adoption. So people spend a lot of time thinking about how to price for easy uptake and viral growth. That all makes sense. What we now have is the price list for steady-state.
The challenge: This price list is really low. And all of a sudden it becomes impossible to understand how the business will make any money before it has thousands of customers. And now we are stuck.
Customer validation: There are dogs and they eat the dog food and they pay for it. Repeatedly and gladly.
Path to Ramen Profitability: Trying to ramp up some revenues so you can fund your hopefully very minimal cost base. More on the virtues of ramen profitability here.
Extracting maximum margin contribution from each customer interaction: If you want to become ramen profitable you have to get as much money out of as few customer transactions as possible. The bigger the transaction the better. At the same time you cannot be too picky about who you accept as a customer, so the goal is to get the most from every customer, which may be a lot for some and not so much for others. No matter, as soon as you have extracted all of it.
The key instrument for this is a long and complicated price list. Think Oracle database licenses. Better yet, study pricing for products such as Salesforce CRM. Ideally you have multi-dimensional price drivers, e.g.
Different modules, e.g. CRM+SFA+Helpdesk+etc. etc.
Be comfortable when customers meet and compare prices. They must feel that their own offer has been logical and fair.

Mayor Sue Ayres with a festive member of staff at Hazel Court.
It's been a busy festive period for Sue - not least for the number of Christmas dinners she had. Read on to find out more.
Firstly, may I take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year - as for December, it has has been the busiest, yet most enjoyable, month.
Although trying to be really sensible and good, and despite trying to lose weight with the help of Slimming World and the encouragement from the wonderful Georgina, I had eight Christmas dinners!
Thankfully though, on my weigh in on the day after Boxing Day I had only lost one pound.
I went to a fantastic concert at St Gregory's School, the children were so good, I was reduced to tears at the final song, it was a Beatles number, 'Golden Slumbers' by a super young man.
All the children were so confident, they were accompanied by Tom Cogan who had been helping them when rehearsing.
Yet another most moving Christmas Concert was held in St Peter's Church with well known carols, plus some of the more unusual with poems and readings all performed by our brilliant Sudbury Choral Society.
We had a great Christmas Lunch in the Assembly Rooms at the Town Hall, about 120 folk who are over 65 enjoyed a fabulous three course dinner prepared by Christopher from The Loft.
We were entertained by two lovely guys known as "Frank and Hank" singing lots of songs from the sixties and seventies, they especially sang my favourite "Halfway to Paradise" written by Billy Fury.
Children from Woodhall School also sang beautifully under the direction of Helen Arbon.
All the staff from the Town Hall helped with serving the food, Bradley and Adrian were busy topping everyone up with sherry. It was a great party!
The wonderful landlords of The White Horse in North Street, Ashley and Gary, provided a superb Christmas meal for the "Meet up on Monday" group.
They have hosted this group every Monday since Easter, making a welcoming place for those who may be lonely. This lovely bunch enjoy each other's company and we have such a good time.
There has been a real spirit of Christmas and good will in our town. I tentatively asked Darren Cox from Sudbury Market if we could have some oranges to make our Christingles for the Crib Service in St Gregory's Church, he was so generous and gave us sixty. We just had enough, the children looked fantastic and their little faces were lit by the light from the candles.
Christmas Day started for me with Midnight Mass, then on Christmas morning we had the presentation of clothing vouchers for gentlemen of Sudbury, organised by Sudbury Municipal Charities.
This is a tradition started by a Sudbury mayor 350 years ago, it was an honour to be involved , serving sherry and mince pies and handing out the vouchers.
From there I went to visit the residents at Hazel Court and Catchpole Court, taking some chocolates for the hardworking staff.
Then finally to cook yet another Christmas lunch for family and friends. I ended the day by watching Call the Midwife and yet again having a few tears at the poignant story line!


If you have often thought about adding recycling to your companies procedures, but aren't sure of the reason behind doing so, then keep reading. You can greatly reduce the impact your company has on the environment and give your business a green image by choosing to incorporate a recycling method to your waste disposal methods. Before you rush out and choose a company make sure you understand how the process works so you can have all of your basic questions answered. While the process may seem complicated, it is an easy task, and most of the work happens after your waste has been picked up. Here is a brief overview of what happens when you sell your items to a company who specializes in Metal recycling in NJ. Sorted One of the first things that takes place is the sorting of all of the items that the recycler has. Metal, aluminum, copper and all metals will be separated for further processing. While this was typically done by hand in the past, it is now done with machines that can detect an items composition. This makes it easy and efficient to properly sort all of the different types of metal.
Melted Down After all of the metal has been sorted, it is then compiled and melted down. The recycler will then form the metal in various cubes. Impurities in the metal are removed during this step, so the final product is as pure as possible. There is still one step left before the process is complete.
Sold The recycler will then sell the melted cubes of pure metal to manufacturers. Companies will then reuse this waste to make products for future consumers. It is cheaper to purchase recycled metal than to mine for further metal, and is less impactful on the environment. Manufacturers can also claim that they use recycled products in their packaging, which can draw customers who are focused on green living. The process of recycling has only just begun when your waste is picked up. Make sure you consider using Metal recycling in NJ so you can rest assured you are doing your part to keep the environment a safe and healthy place. American Scrap Metal has been helping companies with their recycling disposal methods for years, and they can help your company too.

Q: C++ codes that seem similar but have differents behavior : any idea why? I have a c++ code of a segment tree that often it works, but with
a big input it fails. Any way, tracking the bug I have figured out that
changing some part of the code for something that seems to be "equivalent"
the code works without failures.
Some context :
struct state {
    int v, pos;
    state (int v, int pos) : v(v), pos(pos)  {}
};
int split(state s);
state go(state, int, int, int);

struct node{
    int link;
...
};
vector<node> t;

This code doesn't work :
int get_link (int v) {
    if (t[v].link != -1)  return t[v].link;
    if (t[v].par == -1)  return 0;

    int to = get_link (t[v].par);
    state aux = go (state (to,t[to].len()), t[v].l + (t[v].par==0), t[v].r, t[v].i_str);

    return t[v].link = split (aux);
}

This one works :
int get_link (int v) {
    if (t[v].link != -1)  return t[v].link;
    if (t[v].par == -1)  return 0;

    int to = get_link (t[v].par);
    state aux = go (state (to,t[to].len()), t[v].l + (t[v].par==0), t[v].r, t[v].i_str);

    int ret = split (aux);
    t[v].link = ret;
    return ret;
}

This one works :
int get_link (int v) {
    if (t[v].link != -1)  return t[v].link;
    if (t[v].par == -1)  return 0;

    int to = get_link (t[v].par);
    state aux = go (state (to,t[to].len()), t[v].l + (t[v].par==0), t[v].r, t[v].i_str);

    int ret = split (aux);
    t[v].link = ret;
    return t[v].link;
}

This one doesn't works :
int get_link (int v) {

    node &w = t[v];
    if (w.link != -1)  return w.link;
    if (w.par == -1)  return 0;

    int to = get_link (w.par);
    state aux = go (state (to,t[to].len()), w.l + (w.par==0), w.r, w.i_str);

    int ret = split (aux);
    w.link = ret;
//  assert(t[v].link == ret);

    return ret;
}

moreover, in this last case the assert fails.
it is weird because in all the failures cases, the get_line function runs many times
without problems.
Any idea what is wrong or what I am misunderstanding.
if it is useful

A: Seems pretty likely that your split function is resizing the t vector. So in an expression like this t[v].link = split (aux) if the vector::operator[] is being evaluated before the split call (which is possible) and the split function is reallocating the vector then you may be accessing a reference to an object which no longer exists.
Your alternative code, which uses a temporary variable, doesn't have this problem because then the call to vector::operator[] definitely happens after the call to split.

Shaun Edwards
International Sports Peak Performance Expert
Born and raised in Wigan, England, Shaun Edward's rugby talents evidently ran in his family's blood with both his father and uncle having played professionally. It was only natural when Shaun Edwards took up the sport and soon became England schoolboy captain in both the rugby union and rugby league, he was the first to achieve this feat and as a result attracted a wealth of attention from several clubs. He took his first step into rugby stardom when he signed with Wigan in 1983, making his impressive debut as scrum-half only 20 days after. He followed this up as fullback in the final of the 1984 Challenge Cup.
It was in 1985 that Shaun Edward's career began to pick up even more momentum. The talented rugby player played in the 1985 Challenge Cup final as fullback and scored a try, subsequently helping the team achieve victory. The same year he became the youngest ever player to play for Great Britain when he was brought on in a match against France. On a Great Britain Lions tour he taped over the British Coal logo on his jersey to show his support for the miners. Building up his reputation playing in a number of tours and cups, Shaun Edwards dedication on the field shone through when he was awarded the Man of Steel Award for playing most of the 1990 Challenge Cup final with a broken eye socket and cheekbone. At the end of the 1991-92 season he was credited with being the league's top try scorer, leading him to be selected for the 1992 Great British Lions Tour of Australia and New Zealand. He ultimately played in every round of Wigan's consecutive wins of the Challenge Cup, making 452 appearances for the team overall. After leaving the club and having stints at both the London Broncos and Bradford Bulls, Shaun Edwards eventually retired in 2000.
Since retirement Shaun Edwards went on to become head coach for the rugby union team London Wasps, in 2008 he was appointed defence coach for Wales while also becoming defence coach for the British and Irish Lions in 2009. Since 2020, Shaun has been the defence coach for the French national rugby team, whose recent successes have been attributed to the impact of having Shaun as their coach.


I have spent the past 27 years in the real estate and mortgage industries; uniquely different, but intimately connected. I have been an executive coach with Building Champions since 2003, and spend most days in coaching sessions with professionals in both the mortgage and real estate industries.
For the past 18 years, I have had the amazing opportunity to conduct a monthly audio interview series – TalkJet – with top producing REALTORS across the U.S., Canada and Australia. Having now interviewed over 200 top real estate professionals, I can tell you that are more different ways to be successful in the business than there are similar ways. That said, there are similarities, and when I see them, you'll find me commenting on them here.
I travel several times a month to speak to audiences about my observations of what the best real estate agents are doing and how the top loan originators are working with the most succesful agents. That is a beautiful symphony when it is operating at its best.
I'm currently immersed in my first book project, "White Collar Warrior – Lessons for Sales Professionals From America's Military Elite", where I have interviewed Army Rangers and Navy SEALS to identify the disciplines and commonalities between them and the best sales professionals in the country. I am a student of the "Leading Edge of The Spear", and love this project. Stay tuned!
My wife Toni and I call Moorpark, California (between L.A. & Santa Barbara) home, and count among our greatest blessings the ability to "do life" with our kids and grandkids. Golf is my personal passion (addiction), and green fairways regularly beckon.

Communication networks are increasingly present in modern electronic equipment, and with the popularization of the internet of things "IoT", communication networks have an even greater field of application.
Firstly, it is necessary to remember that the RS-485 standard is not a communication protocol and it is only a standardized standard that specifies physical details such as operating voltage levels, number of devices and maximum distance. Several protocols use the physical media specifications defined by the RS-485 standard, such as the Profibus protocol and the well-known Modbus protocol. In addition, we have the BACnet, CompoNet, EnDat and BiSS protocols.
The standard RS-485 (Recommended Standart-485) or EIA-485 (Electronic Industries Alliance-485) was approved in 1983 by the EIA (Electronics Industries Association) as a new means of data transmission by cabling and is widely accepted in virtually all type of industry such as: medical equipment, industrial automation, vessels, laboratories, robotics, air conditioning systems and many other applications. The mechanical characteristics of the electrical connectors are not addressed by the standard, being possible to adopt several different types according to the need of the application.

649,689. Respiratory appliances. COLLISON, W. E. Oct. 12, 1948, No. 26583. [Class 81(ii)] In order to prevent exhaled air mixing with incoming gas or vapour inhalation apparatus comprises a valve in the conduit to the patient's nose which is automatically opened or closed by the varying pressure in a tube leading to the mouth. In one embodiment a mask is formed with two chambers 2, 4, fitting over the nose and mouth respectively. Gas entering by a tube 1 passes to the nosepiece through a chamber 3 containing a ball valve 5 and' having an orifice 6 communicating with the mouthpiece. When the patient breathes in, the reduction in pressure in the mouthpiece causes the ball 5 to move to the left and block the orifice 6 and outlet tube 7, leaving the inlet tube unobstructed. When the patient breathes out the ball moves 'back to the position shown in full lines, so blocking the inlet tube and leaving a free passage for exhalation through the tube 7, which may be fitted with a non-return valve 9. In a modification a segmental flap valve is used in place of the ball type. (see Fig. 4 (not shown)).

Johannesburg Mayor Herman Mashaba is staying true to his word more than a year after he announced grand plans for the City of Johannesburg.
"I made the commitment in December 2016 to turn the inner city into a construction site," he announced at the launch of 71 inner-city properties.
Scores of investors, bankers and property developers gathered at the council chambers on Tuesday morning for the highly-anticipated launch where Mashaba announced that plans were under way to take back derelict buildings and offer them to the private sector.
A total of 500 buildings that were hijacked or abandoned have been identified for investment within the inner city. Of these, 73 have been returned to their rightful owners.
"We hope to release 50 to 100 buildings annually to the private sector for refurbishment," he said.
Where the City cannot track owners, it will take ownership of the buildings and convert them into low-cost housing in the range of R800 to R1 000.
"The City council has given the go ahead to offer 71 buildings to the private sector to convert into low cost housing and student accommodation. This will attract R16bn to R20bn investment," Mashaba told the gallery.
Mashaba told potential bidders that the City was officially open for business.
"Syndicates are taking over our city while Sandton continues to enjoy unprecedented levels of investment. We are determined to not let the inner city deteriorate even further," Mashaba said.
One of the conditions for a successful bid was job creation.
"The creation of artisan training is a condition that is required and bidders must create as many jobs as possible," Mashaba explained.
This project is of interest to the Johannesburg mayor due to his upbringing. There is also an issue of a lack of housing, with a staggering 3 000 people entering the city every month seeking employment.
"Half of my life I did not have a proper home. This was only fulfilled in 1986 at the age of 26 after I started Black like me. My mother was only 65 when she first experienced the joy of home ownership. I want to put a stop to this cycle," Mashaba said.
The Mayor urged investors to invest now and avoid the rush.
"My message to you today is do not wait to invest because in 2-3 years you will not be able to afford to invest in our inner city," Mashaba said.
He hopes to continue enjoying the support of council while he aims to make Johannesburg "a society that is inclusive for all".

SC verdict buries narrative of foreign conspiracy: Law Minister
Tarar said that Imran Khan put entire country on stake just to save his rule.
14 July,2022 01:34 pm
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Federal ministers on Thursday said that Supreme Court verdict on Deputy Speaker's ruling about no-confidence motion has buried the narrative of foreign conspiracy to oust the government of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
Law Minister Azam Nazir Tarar, while addressing a press conference along with Qamar Zaman Kaira, said that Supreme Court has declared dissolution of National Assembly by president as unconstitutional and Deputy Speaker of National Assembly gave the ruling with malafide intent. The verdict has exposed true face of PTI Chairman Imran Khan, he added.
The minister further said that Imran Khan put entire country on stake just to save his rule.
It merits mention, the Supreme Court on Wednesday issued detailed judgement in suo moto notice case on ruling by the Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly under Article 5 of the Constitution qua voting on No-confidence Motion against the Prime Minister of Pakistan.
A five-member larger bench of the apex court headed by Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial and comprising Justice Ijaz Ul Ahsan, Justice Mazhar Alam Khan Miankhel, Justice Munib Akhtar and Justice Jamal Khan Mandokhail had announced a short order on April 07, 2022 on ruling passed on April 03, 2022 by the Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly on No-confidence Motion.
The court, in its ruling, disposed of the suo motu proceedings and the related constitution petitions and termed since the ruling and detailed reasons of the deputy speaker and the advice of the PM to the President to dissolve the NA have been declared unconstitutional and the dissolution of the NA by the President had no legal effect.
"The NA stands restored with immediate effect (in fact it is deemed to have been in existence at all times). The Speaker is, therefore, directed to convene a sitting of the NA forthwith and conduct the business of the House as per the Orders of the Day issued for 03.04.2022."
The judgment stated, "In fact, in our considered view the restoration of NA will strengthen the democratic norms of our political system under the Constitution, namely, Parliamentary form of Government. It does not concern the Court whether the RNC against the PM succeeds or fails. Our foremost priority is the maintenance of constitutional order in the country which can only be achieved if the NA is restored and permitted to perform its functions under the Constitution. However, a NA that operates merely as a rubber stamp for the Government of the day does not serve the country. The governance of a nation can only be dynamic and efficient if it is managed by a Government that is held to account by a strong Opposition. But many a times in our legal and political discourse, the significance of a healthy Opposition is overlooked. Nevertheless, we find the account in Halsbury's Laws of England (Volume 20, 2014) on the indispensability of the Opposition to a flourishing democracy."
"It may be noticed that to prevent the decline into rule by oligarchy and to uphold the cherished principle of transparent governance, the presence of the Opposition in the NA (and the Senate) is necessary. The crucial role of the Opposition in a democracy was also explained by the Parliamentary Assembly of Council of Europe in Resolution 1601 (adopted on 23.01.2008)," The judgement read.
"The Opposition Parties are a diverse combination of political parties whereas the Respondents are backed by the largest party in the NA. They have huge clout by virtue of their sheer numbers and so can play a decisive role whether in the Government or the Opposition in order to perform their constitutional obligations faithfully and diligently so as to serve the people of Pakistan to whom they have made a solemn pledge under the Constitution."
"However, such consequential relief may be denied by the Court if it can be shown that the same will perpetuate injustice or will not be just and proper in the circumstances. Reference is made to the concurring judgment of Justice Ajmal Mian (as he then was) in the Nawaz Sharif Vs. President of Pakistan. Although Justice Ajmal Mian's observations were made in the context of fundamental rights, we are of the view that they apply equally to situations where constitutional rights have been violated."
"His comments," the judgement noted, "also reinforce our view (stated in para 88 above) that in situations of proven public interest the Court may deny consequential relief. Nevertheless, in the instant proceedings learned counsel for the Respondents have not been able to persuade us that restoring the NA will either perpetuate injustice, be unjust and improper in the circumstances or irreparably harm any public interest."
The order further stated that "even so being a Court of Law we must decide matters strictly in accordance with the Constitution and the law and not on the basis of expediency or individual perception. Therefore, if today we maintain the dissolution of NA, which has been brought about by the illegal actions of the Deputy Speaker, PM and President, we will effectively be disobeying the Constitution, specifically Article 95(2).
As custodians of the Constitution [ref: Corruption in Hajj Arrangements in 2010: In the matter of (PLD 2011 SC 963) at para 20], the Court cannot lend its support to any extra-constitutional measure unless a compelling public interest established by evidence and floating on the face of the record so demands, it added.

The Riverside County Club golfer – a senior 'rookie' in the 98-man field for players 55 and over – fired a 5-under-par 67 at the Kingswood course to share the lead with 2012 champion Herrick Hansen of Aroostook Valley.
Armstrong birdied holes 2, 4, 6 and 7 while bogeying No. 5. "It was hot but the wind kept it cool, and I had a ball out there," said Armstrong, who was 3-under at the turn. "Everything was working. My irons were spot on. I hit the first 16 greens in regulation and missed the last two. I hit a bad tee shot on No. 9. It was up the left rough but it rolled by a tree, so I had an opening. I had a couple breaks and I got the ball to roll in. "The greens are immaculate," Armstrong said, "and if you missed a putt it was your own fault. I made a 70-footer on the last hole and about a 50-footer on No. 4. It was just one of those dream days." Hansen, who was 3-under through six holes, was modest about his round.
Three players are four shots off the pace following 1-under 71s.They are 2013 champ Mike Breen of Hampton, Edward Vail of Riverside and Marty Winslow of Kingswood.Fredericton's Dan Coulombe is alone in sixth after an even-par 72.
Guy McKnight of Country Meadows, near Moncton, and Fredericton's Phil Plume are next with 73s. Ralph Michaud of Aroostook Valley is ninth with a 74. Chicago's Jerry Maatman and Paul Roy of Covered Bridge, near Hartland, are tied for 10th with 75s. "I hit some squirrelly shots but I got away with it," Breen said. "I made some putts,so I'm quite happy to be 1-under after the way I hit a few shots. I hit the driver really well. There were a couple of just ugly shots, but I kept it in the fairway for the most part. "I hit a lot of greens and sunk a few par putts," he said. Breen will take his share of third overall. "I don't want to be shooting 78 or something like that and feel like I've taken myself out of it. Anything under par is good, but it's a long tournament." Breen echoed others when he said the course "is in fabulous shape; just incredible." Coulombe said his goal for the first round"was to have a respectable score. I don't think even par is going to do me too much harm." Still, Coulombe was thinking lower after he birdied the first three holes. He gave it back by bogeying three of the next four.

Most desired features of a water bottle though will boil down to personal preference in the end as well as to what particular activity you need it for. Athletes, for instance, may need something that's rather lightweight so that they can cart it around easier.

Why do you love what you do at Mint & Maple?
I love that I get to be creative and that I get to wear a lot of different hats. Every day looks a little different, and I get to work with lots of wonderful people and a great team. I get so much joy teaching people skills to explore their creative side they accidentally neglect for years. Also, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention I love being my own boss for the flexibility and spontaneity it gives me!
I love going somewhere new and experiencing new things, even the seemingly insignificant things like a new hotel, a new museum or new area I've yet to explore.
Turkey Creek Trail in northwest Austin is a definite go-to. Josh and I love taking our little Aussie dog, Riley, because it's an off leash trail.
Cy Twombly – if you haven't been to his gallery at the Menil in Houston, you should go when you get the chance!
Mañana in the South Congress Hotel - hands down! Not only do they make excellent coffee, but the ambience always inspires me to create.
This is going to sound really random, but I usually know what month people are born in. I can just feel it. I tend categorize people in my head with what season they're born in. Don't ask me when or how I started going this, but it's always been something I've done!

I have a dream job. I love being a part of the ultimate all-girl creative squad, in the cutest white house studio, working for a mission I believe in. I am constantly thinking of ways to inspire creativity in other people's lives, pushing me to do the same in my own. Working for a small business means boots on the ground, but it allows me to learn something new every day. Not to mention the stocked fridge full of Kombucha, a Nespresso machine in the studio and team lunches on the reg!

Cooking, running, working, being on-the-go. Sounds counterintuitive, but after a long week of busyness, I feel most inspired to take a deep breath, decompress and tap into my creativity. I love to rest by art journaling, making a floral arrangement or visiting the Blanton.

Providing support to children whose parents have died due to the Ebola outbreak in the country should claim the attention of humanitarian organizations, Mr. Michael John Bull, program director of Street Child of Liberia, SCOL, has said.
Bull told newsmen yesterday in Monrovia that his organization is concerned about children who have lost parents to the Ebola virus.
"We have discussed the issue," Bull said, "and Street Child will trace relatives of children whose parents died as a result of the Ebola virus.
He said as a child advocate organization, he understands the negative effects on such children, and therefore believes that such intervention is critical to help them.
"What we (SCOL) are doing is to visit communities and collect information on such children and then we can begin to work with family members," Bull said.
Bull noted that parents who may be suffering from any of the symptoms associated with Ebola should ensure that their children are separated from them.
He said Street Child of Liberia is concerned about the future of such children, particularly as the Ebola virus is causing many deaths in the country.
He re-echoed the need for parents to educate their children to follow preventive methods in the fight against the Ebola virus.
Street Child of Liberia has reunified more than four hundred street children through education, including nine who participated in the Street Child World Cup in Brazil, last March.


On Feb. 5, Dennis Bailey, Director of Communications with Americans for Tax Fairness discussed a progressive tax reform proposal.
Bailey spoke about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY 14th district) tax reform proposal that would essentially be a 70 percent marginal tax rate for an income of 10 million dollars and above. Bailey feels that the current tax system is rigged and unfair against the poor and is designed to help out the rich. Bailey believes that trickle-down economics is not helping anybody and is not creating new jobs like politicians claimed it would. He also mentioned how Trump's GOP tax cuts are not helping the economy like he had said that they would.
Tim Burga, President of the Ohio AFL-CIO, discussed an increase in union membership in Ohio, compared to a slight decrease, nationwide, in 2018. He also said that teacher union membership is significantly growing compared to last year. Burga also believes the government shutdown will possibly resume on Feb. 15 and he feels that congress needs to find common ground on the border security issue that President Trump and Democrats have been butting heads over.
AWF host Ed "Flash" Ferenc spoke about the pressure being placed on Amazon HQ2 in New York to allow workers to unionize.


Calming a fussy baby can be stressful; use these tips to keep your cool .
We know you need more than one way to safely shush your fussy baby.
Parents seem to fear a fussy baby almost more than any other part of parenting. And baby boot camp begins the moment you hold your little one in your arms for the first time. Babies cry because they don't yet talk—it's your job to learn does that crying mean "I'm uncomfortable" or "I need a change" or "I need to be held." Decoding babies' cries is step one in becoming an expert in soothing baby.
As the parent, you've got the advantage. Your baby loves to be with you, and she or he wants your help navigating this new world. Even during pregnancy babies are comforted by the sounds of their parents talking. They know mom's heartbeat and will quickly get to know dad's.
There are many reasons babies cry—and usually it's to express a need. Babies rarely cry when they're sick—they tend to withdraw and be quieter. See baby's healthcare provider if baby's crying is prolonged and if baby has been vomiting, has diarrhea, is refusing to eat or is running a fever.
When you're stressed, it's very difficult to calm a fussy baby. You need to calm yourself first! This means taking a break and letting someone else care for baby. If you're alone, this means putting baby safely in the crib and going into another room where you can still hear or see baby while you take a break. Some states even have parent hotlines if you need a break but have no one to call.
Tag team soothing baby; switch off with your partner or another adult every 15-30 minutes so that no one loses their cool with baby—soothing takes patience and energy!
Never Shake a Baby, EVER!
By the time your baby is born, hopefully you will have been educated about the dangers of shaking a baby. It is never OK to shake an infant. Even one episode of brief shaking can lead to permanent changes in the baby's delicate brain. Situations that lead to a parent or other caregiver shaking a baby are a crying infant combined with a caregiver who is feeling very stressed and angry about the crying. If you ever feel that you are in such a situation, place your baby in a safe position on his or her back in the crib, remove yourself from the baby's room and call for help (a parent hotline or a friend who can help you).

As US reopens, campuses tighten restrictions for virus
on May8
by admin | Comments Off on As US reopens, campuses tighten restrictions for virus |
About a year into mask mandates, nasal swabs and remote classes, the atmosphere turned tense at the University of Vermont as the school cracked down on rules for social distancing and face coverings amid a spike in student COVID-19 cases.
Students were handed hundreds of citations for violations like standing in another student's doorway or walking maskless to a hallway restroom, igniting a student-led petition that blasted "strict and inhumane living conditions."
"You start to feel suffocated, like I'm afraid to leave my room," freshman Patrick Welsh said in an interview on campus.
Even as restrictions relax across much of the country, colleges and universities have taken new steps to police campus life as the virus spreads among students who are among the last adults to get access to vaccines. Administrators say they've needed to act urgently to avoid risking an early end to the semester or sending infected students home and spreading COVID-19.

DISNEY WORLD, UNIVERSAL STUDIOS STOPPING TEMPERATURE CHECKS FOR GUEST
In recent weeks, the University of Michigan punished hundreds of students for missing mandatory virus testing by deactivating their access cards to nonresidential buildings, and Cornell University announced that students would lose access to campus Wi-Fi, course materials and facilities for missing virus tests. The University of Chicago locked down residence halls for seven days and shifted classes online after reporting more than 50 cases in a matter of days.
The measures come as administrators assess whether in-person commencement ceremonies are feasible, how to get students vaccinated and whether to make the shots a requirement. The onset of warm weather and eased restrictions outside campus gates pose additional challenges.
After recording 200 infections in the first two weeks of April, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University eliminated in-person dining and banned visitors from campus housing.
While the state's governor has lifted an outdoor mask mandate and doubled mass gathering limits to allow 100 people indoors and 200 people outdoors, the university has worked with law enforcement to try to shut down off-campus events billed as "Aggie-Fest" celebrations that target students, said Todd Simmons, associate vice chancellor for university relations.
"What we're trying to prevail on students is two things. First, let's not get commencement canceled with some sort of last-minute major surge in COVID infections, and secondly do not take a chance on taking a COVID infection home," Simmons said.
The historically Black university also has been pushing students to get vaccinated on campus, he said, bringing in speakers to address vaccine hesitancy.
At the University of Vermont, just under 100 students tested positive for the virus during the fall semester. But the numbers surged in the spring, with more than 680 students infected so far this semester. Gary Derr, vice president for operations and public safety, said the fall semester got off to a smoother start because it was warm enough for students to socialize outside.
"We came back in the spring and we were stuck indoors," he said. Like many campuses, there was no spring break to look forward to; the university didn't want students bringing the virus back with them.

UTAH MOM BLASTS SCHOOL DISTRICT OVER MASK MANDATE: 'I HAD ENOUGH'
UVM students agree to a pledge that they will abide by school rules for preventing the spread of the coronavirus, and violations can lead to fines, probation or suspension for repeated offenses. This spring, six students have been suspended and 23 are banished from campus, allowed only to join classes remotely.
As tulips and daffodils bloom on campus, signs tell students to keep up safety practices like social distancing and mask-wearing. At the COVID-19 testing center, where students are tested twice a week, banners say, "IT'S UP TO US" and "THANKS FOR DOING YOUR PART."
The warmer weather has made it easier to see friends and classmates on campus, students said, but fears of being penalized have taken a toll.
"If I go anywhere on campus and I mess up, like I'm sitting too close to someone or my mask is below my nose, I could get fined or I could get suspended. It makes you afraid, and it's terrible for mental health," said Welsh, of Hopkinton, Massachusetts. "And I think the UVM administration is not really recognizing that. They're just trying to look good."
When hundreds of young people crowded onto a Burlington beach the second weekend in April, student Gary Sinclair of St. Johnsbury, Vermont, saw it as a kind of revolt against the crackdown.
"We were working really hard to make sure the school stays open so that those guys can make money," Sinclair said, "but I think North Beach was a huge … statement to the UVM administration that, 'You know what? If you're going to try to intimidate us with fear and fines, kicking us out, stuff like that, then we're all going to go to the beach and you're not going to kick all of us out.'"
In late April, Derr announced infection rates at UVM had fallen enough to allow multihousehold gatherings of UVM students living on- and off-campus.
Nicole Hardy said students haven't lost sight of the virus but have become desensitized as time has passed.
"I still see people going into quarantine every week, and I still know there are people that are getting sick. … So it's like there's still a lingering concern," she said. "But I would say overwhelmingly people are prioritizing socializing right now."

What is CHAS?
CHAS is a health and safety accreditation scheme for the construction industry, and often acts as a type of pre-qualification during the tender process. Whilst it is not a legal requirement many organisations use this scheme to determine that their supply chain have the required skills, knowledge and experience to carry out work on their behalf.
Do we have to have a Fire Risk Assessment?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order requires that the responsible person for any non-domestic premises must carry out a fire risk assessment of the premises and review it regularly.
What are the consequences of not complying with Health & Safety law?
This depends on the seriousness of the offence and whether you've previously been told about matters.
You may be served with an improvement notice requiring the Health & Safety failing to be sorted out or you can be taken to court.
Who is responsible for Health & Safety in the workplace?
The primary responsibility for Health & Safety rests with the employer. But employees also have a duty for their own as well as the Health & Safety of others.
Do Health & Safety laws apply to my small business?
They apply to all businesses no matter how small, to the self-employed and also employees.
Do we have to have a trained fire warden at our offices?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order states that employers must appoint one or more competent persons to assist them with undertaking preventative and protective measures.
How many fire wardens depends upon several factors and will be outlined in your fire risk assessment.
Do I need an environmental policy?
Whilst there is no legal requirement for a business to have an environmental policy, many find it a useful tool in setting out their aims and objectives.A properly implemented environmental policy can help businesses to reduce their carbon footprint, improve recycling, reduce reliance on packaging, minimising waste, improve efficiencies on finite natural resources in all their operations.
What does a contractor need to start working on a site?
The first step is to prepare a construction phase plan. This will set out how you intend to plan and organise the job, and work together with others involved to make sure that the work is carried out without risks to health and safety.
Is PAT Testing a legal requirement?
The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 require that any electrical equipment that has the potential to cause injury is maintained in a safe condition. However, the Regulations do not specify what needs to be done, by whom or how frequently (i.e. they don't make inspection or testing of electrical appliances a legal requirement).
Do I have to have a Health and Safety Policy?
Your business must have a health and safety policy, and if you have more than five employees, it must be written down.
The policy should include a general statement outlining your commitment to managing health and safety effectively and what you wish to achieve; responsibilities and; arrangements.

SeaWorld IPO documents show a company deep in debt and reveal some interesting stats about how they do business.
Alaskans ban taser use on moose and bear, fearing a non-existent epidemic of "no kill" hunts. Hunting groups hate "catch and release" hunting, fearing it would debase hunting.
TASER International, Inc. introduced a $2,000 wildlife taser that shoots $25 probes 35 feet into bear, lion or moose. Some animal lovers groan, but I think it may actually help save animals.
Chimps in Guinea show each other how to disable the snares set by bushmeat trappers. Now if they can teach other African chimps, which suffer horrible injuries from the snares.
After one month with the rescued beagles, they know their names, what foods they like and who their parents are. Less clear on what is inedible.
One of the biggest challenges of raising former laboratory beagles turns out to be preventing escape. Two NC dogs ran away and got hit by cars.
Huck and Moxie are becoming well-known in the East Village for their rassling and sweet greetings.
This weekend my husband David and I adopted two of the 200 beagles sprung from a NC medical research lab shut down after Peta produced and unwatchably disturbing undercover video that shut the lab down.

It appears that a lot of people that start a internet site on the internet have no idea what they are doing, or perhaps how to undertake it! That's a disgrace!
Designing an online site isn't a basic process, but it surely isn't that difficult either. It's a great organized method that starts with an idea of what you want to share your prospective about inside your web pages.
A very good method of constructing a website is based on what you want to share with your prospects, one step at a time. Keeping it simple, and simple to read. Employ Black Textual content on a Bright white Background having a minimum of graphics on the key page. You don't want any animations or music content in the lafringuale.fr internet pages unless you know it will help to sell off your item!
Your site is your Advertisement to your website, and should be set up, and with as handful of links as is possible going out from it. This site is your Front Door, and it must own content onto it that will Pick up your visitor's attention, and hold the interest long enough to make them interested in the other parts of your web page. It's like a Million Dollar Sales copy with a few backlinks to other parts of the sales letter.
In the site there should be an attention grabbing fonction about a advantage for the outlook. Your visitor is looking for whatever you have to sell, or they will wouldn't become there hence grab their very own attention, and provide them a significant benefit designed for Reading everything you have to offer. The chance has some problem that they are trying to find the solution to. Provide Rewards for them that will help them to solve their problem.
Within the body of the page have more rewards that will help the prospect solve their particular problems seeing that easily as is possible. Make your text message as easy meant for the prospect to understand as possible, and write about the Prospect.
In the event you sell more than one product, or provider and the goods and services need a good description of every, then build an online page for each product and pack every single web page with as much information about how the product functions, or just how your service can benefit all of them. The more information about your items, or offerings, the better!

I have seen the background of numerous of the major ranking web pages in the search engines, and get found that a majority of often the pages have very little if any meta tags in them! That they aren't using the keywords, or description meta tags, and yet they have the top positions – without having to Pay for them! These kinds of pages include benefit loaded text of their products that gets them the top situation.
I have was required to switch server companies a few times because of reliability problems possibly with the server hardware, or software, and it looks like I'll have to move again genuine soon as a result of reliability complications. If you are looking for that good web space provider checks all of them out thoroughly before putting together, or transferring a domain to them. Make certain that the server company provides customer advice that you can check by calling their customers!
It shouldn't do any good to have a awesome website in case your virtual hardware is straight down most of the time! I've gone through that and it isn't entertaining when you type your website WEBSITE ADDRESS and find out that your hardware is down During Pinnacle Hours! Which is the time you will need the web server to be the most, and it is when the cash is made.

Having trouble making student loan payments or keeping all of your loans in order? Perhaps you're juggling multiple payments across several loan servicers. Consolidating your student loans could help you stay organized.
When you consolidate your loans, the lender pays off your existing loans and issues you a new loan for the combined amount. As a result, you'll have fewer loans to keep track of and fewer monthly payments to make. Although loan consolidation may not save you money, it could still be worth considering for several reasons.
If you do it yourself, consolidating your federal student loans is free. The Department of Education (ED) says that the online application process takes most people less than 30 minutes to complete. However, some people hire a company or student loan expert to guide them through the process.
You can apply for federal loan consolidation online at StudentLoans.gov or mail in a paper application. Your eligibility for consolidating federal loans is based on the types of federal loans you have, not your income or credit.
Many borrowers have more than one student loan to keep track of each month. Consolidating or refinancing student loans (federal or private) could make it easier to stay organized, potentially saving you time and helping you avoid mistakenly missing a payment.
The consolidation process itself could take several weeks or months. You should continue making loan payments until the servicer you're working with says your original loans are paid off and disburses your new consolidation loan.
You'll choose the repayment plan for your Direct Consolidation Loan when you apply for consolidation. Switching to an income-driven plan or the Extended Repayment Plan could be a good option to reduce your monthly payment amount. You can always change your repayment plan in the future.
When you refinance your student loans into a private consolidation loan, you may have the option to pick the repayment term for your new loan. For example, you could choose between a 5-year loan or a 20-year loan and the corresponding monthly payments. However, keep in mind that lengthening your original loan term with consolidation will increase the overall cost of your loan.
Federal and private student loans have limitations on how long they can be placed in forbearance or deferment - temporary periods during which you don't have to make loan payments. Because consolidation results in a new loan, the forbearance and deferment limits are reset by the process. This may be useful if you've had trouble making payments in the past and want to ensure that you have these options in the future. However, placing your loan in a forbearance or deferment will increase the overall cost of your loan.
When you consolidate your federal loans, you'll choose a new loan servicer. Currently, there are four servicers for Direct Consolidation Loans: Navient, Nelnet, FedLoan Servicing (PHEAA) and Great Lakes. If you're working toward or considering the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program, FedLoan Servicing may be beneficial since it helps administer the program.
For private loan consolidation, you can choose the lender that best fits your circumstances based on the loan terms you were approved for and the services it offers. If you are changing from your current lender, then your servicer will also likely change.
A Direct Consolidation Loan has the weighted interest rate of the federal loans you combined. This means that unless you change your repayment plan, you'll owe roughly the same amount each month and pay about the same amount in interest over the lifetime of the loan.
The interest rate on a private consolidation loan will be fixed or variable depending on what you choose, and it could be lower than the original interest rates on your private or federal loans.
You may be able to consolidate your private and federal loans together with a private lender who offers combined consolidation. Similar to consolidating your private loans, your new loan's interest rate will depend on several factors, including your credit history and choice of a fixed or variable rate.
A creditworthy cosigner could increase your chances of approval and help you secure a lower interest rate. If you're eligible for the loan on your own, you could also use consolidation to release a cosigner from your existing student loans.
Consolidating your federal student loans into a private loan could save you money by lowering your interest rate. However, your new private loan won't have the same benefits of a federal student loan, such as eligibility for federal repayment plans and forgiveness programs.


HEART OF CHARNWOOD: List, What list?
I also managed to finish my final Advent Calendar yesterday, just one day before it absolutely had to get done, and have hand delivered it to it's recipient this afternoon, i think it was the best one so far.
There has also been some tutorial writing going on, and a big make, but more about that later as it's my secret squirrel project, and should be ready to go live in the next couple of days, watch this space..... I have to say, tutorial writing is bloody hard, and it does make you appreciate some of the amazing hard work people put into making them usable and clear, hopefully mine will be ok, we'll see.
Did I mention, I've also started another little secret squirrel project too, wow, there really is an excess of secret squirrels round here at the moment, might even be called an infestation, and I'm only making 1 actual hand made Christmas present this year for a 3 year old who doesn't read, so that isn't secret squirrel.
I'll be back tomorrow with a Lily's Quilts Fresh Sewing Day round up of November, and I think for December I'm going to slim down my must do project list and wing it a bit, so i can go with the flow and make nice things when "the mood" takes me.
Love the cowl and great calender!
Congrats on the cowl! I love to crochet, it is one of my favorite pastimes! Love you calendar, super cute!
