When cared for and cleaned properly, respirators should work for years without problems. Proper maintenance and testing are a must.
Make sure they are in good working order and the face seals seat properly.
Clean and dry all parts of the respirator regularly.
Before each use, make sure you have the right respirator for the job, and inspect it for wear and damage.
Check for worn or frayed straps.
Look for wear or damage on the seal of the face piece.
Be sure all the screws are tight.
Check rubber and plastic parts for flexibility.
Valves should be clean and seated perfectly.
Be sure filters and cartridges are the right kind for the atmosphere in which you will be working. Remember the color code for cartridges and filters is only a guide. Always read the label to be sure you have the right kinds of elements. If a combination of elements is required, be sure you have the right combination on each side of the respirator.
If it is a full-face respirator, the face shield should be clear and in good condition.
For airline and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) respirators, check the air supply and warning alarm.
Normal body movements may be more awkward than usual. Some respirators are bulky and heavy.
A full-face respirator, or one that covers your entire head, will affect your vision and hearing.
Respirators that are not equipped with a speech transmission device or a microphone may reduce the clarity of loudness of your voice.
Breathing is likely to require more effort than normal.
Cracks in the face shield.
Worn straps, hoses, nose clips.
Wear or damage to the face piece seal.
Condition of filters, cartridges or canisters.
Worn or damaged screw threads.
Poor seating of exhalation and inhalation valve disks.
Damage to speaking diaphragm, if there is one.
Make sure flexible parts are still flexible, and check the stretch of elastic bands. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning and disinfecting the respirator. Generally, a mild detergent and a soft brush are used for cleaning. Rinse the respirator thoroughly in clean, warm water. Rinsing is extremely important because a residue of the cleaning agent can damage the respirator and irritate skin. Be sure all parts are thoroughly dry before putting the respirator back together again. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to absorb most of the water and a fan to speed up the drying process.
If your respirator has an indicator or alarm, be sure it is operating properly. In addition, be alert for the following danger signals. If any of them occur, get to fresh air immediately.
Breathing becomes more difficult. Your filter or cartridge may be clogged.
You detect any odor, taste or irritation that might indicate the contaminant is getting inside your respirator.
The respirator becomes severely uncomfortable.
You experience symptoms of illness, such as dizziness, nausea, weakness, coughing or shortness of breath.
Leave the area immediately if any of these problems develop. Check the respirator for damage, and make sure the filters and cartridges are not clogged or not filtering properly.
When storing a respirator, even overnight, first flex the rubber parts to make sure they are not twisted or bent. Then seal the respirator in a plastic bag and store it where it will be protected. Protect the respirator from dust, sunlight, extreme heat and cold, moisture, damaging chemicals and physical damage.

I can sooo relate to your anxiety about keeping it off. I lost a ton of weight after my second child, I was thinner than I had been in years. While it felt great, I was plagued with the fear that I would gain it all back. It's been about 6 years I haven't gained it back. I've gained some, but not much and according to my friends I was too thin, and I look and feel good, but part of me wishes for those days when it was so easy to lose weight. You can keep it off, though. Just never go unconscious about it.
Hi there! Thanks for the comment! I read your blog – it looks to me that the weight you gained back is pure muscle! You look fantastic!! Those pole classes are amazing, and you have killer arms. I'm with you about not going unconscious about it – that will be the trick. That and finding activities that I love that keep me moving.


I've been back from Germany for over a week, so pretty much over jet lag. I have a system down that has sped up my jet lag recovery by a week (I'm one of those travel wusses who travels a lot.) First, I don't tell anyone I'm back, though my closest friends know, and they know not to bug me for a week. 🙂 Second, I do as little as possible, just the basics: insure my truck, go to the bank, buy groceries, vacuum and dust, laundry – this is spread out over a few days. The rest of the time I WATCH TV. I mean major binge. I PVR Big Bang Theory, Survivor, Elementary, Father Brown and I watch Netflix – at the moment it's Miss Fisher's Mysteries. Third: I sleep as much as I need to. I'm grateful I'm an empty nester and have the luxury of time.
Love this show. Set in 1929 and in Australia! Based on a book series by Kerry Greenwood. Every author's dream!
While I'm on Australian mysteries, I watched Doctor Blake Murder Mysteries to get over my jet lag on the Germany side.
Another period show, this one is set in the 1950s. Also great.
2. It's good to be back home. I went on my weekly hike up Knox Mountain.
I never tire of this view.
3. OH, THAT ELECTION – true to my commitment to not get political on social media, that's all I'm going to say. Not that I don't have opinions, I do. November 8 was also the day I flew home for over 14 hours, and had a flood in my basement. Fun times.
I'm busy finishing up Twinkle Little Star – A Nursery Rhymes Suspense Book #4. So excited to see that one on the shelves.
And, if you're interested in leaving reviews and also like to read Christmas themed inspirational romance novellas, PEACE & GOODWILL (by my pen name Hope Franke) is Free on Amazon this week.

Connecting The Dots:
First Energy Political $$$, Profits, and Utility Policy
New analysis from Common Cause Ohio connects the dots for how an electric utility company spent big to elect candidates — then got favorable policies in return. FirstEnergy contributed over $1.2 million to Ohio politicians… and in return, they're getting taxpayer bailouts and rollbacks of energy efficiency standards
What does FirstEnergy want from the state of Ohio and consumers?
Seet Amendment In Budget Bill
Ohio's electric distribution utilities are state-regulated monopolies that are permitted to earn profits from the electric services they provide to Ohio consumers. In 2008, the state legislature passed Senate Bill 221, which contained a consumer protection provision known as the significantly excessive earnings test, or SEET. The SEET directs the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) to evaluate the earnings of each electric utility at the end of each plan year and determine whether the utility's earned return on equity was significantly excessive, based on earnings from the same period by other publicly traded companies that face comparable business and financial risk.[1] If the PUCO finds that the utility had significantly excessive earnings, it requires the utility to return to consumers the amount of the excess through prospective adjustments to rates.
As the moniker "significantly excessive earnings test" implies, Ohio utilities are currently permitted to collect profits – even profits that may be excessive – as long as they are not significantly excessive. Since the test was implemented, the PUCO has determined twice that an over-17% return on equity triggers the need to adjust prospective rates due to violation of the SEET, permitting Ohio electric distribution utilities to receive much larger profits from consumers than utilities in other states where the return on equity is typically far lower.
The Ohio House's version of the state operating budget (Substitute House Bill 166) that passed on May 9 includes an amended provision that specifically guarantees special treatment for FirstEnergy's regulated distribution utilities regarding the PUCO's SEET determination.[2] Substitute House Bill 166[3] would allow FirstEnergy's three distribution utilities to be treated as one, so that if even one distribution utility earned excessive profits, the profits from all three distribution companies could be spread out among the three companies. This means the distribution utility with significantly excessive profits would not be required to return the excess profit to consumers.
Former legislator Jeff Jacobson, testifying for the Ohio Consumers' Counsel, stated:
FirstEnergy has already been gaming the 2008 law's profit standard at the PUCO. In a recent annual PUCO review of Ohio Edison's profits, the PUCO denied a million Ohio Edison consumers $42 million in refunds for their utility's significantly excessive profits. (PUCO Case 18-857-EL-UNC) In this regard, the PUCO allowed Ohio Edison to exclude its so-called "Distribution Modernization Rider" from the law's profits review. That ruling artificially deflated monopoly Ohio Edison's calculation of significantly excessive profits, from an outrageously high percentage. This ruling was at the expense of Ohio families and businesses whose electric bills were what should have been deflated. The questionable legality of this manipulation of FirstEnergy's monopoly profits would now be permanently solved for FirstEnergy by the budget bill.
The Governor's original budget bill did not contain these anti-consumer terms for FirstEnergy's monopoly electric service.
Handout To Firstenergy Solutions
The Davis-Besse and Perry nuclear plants, owned by FirstEnergy Solutions (FES), a subsidiary of FirstEnergy, are scheduled to close in 2020 and 2021, respectively, and FES is currently going through bankruptcy. In the meantime, FirstEnergy Solutions is still asking for a handout to help it keep the two nuclear plants open. If passed, House Bill 6 would provide FirstEnergy with over $170 million per year, a designed windfall to bail out Ohio's two aging nuclear power plants. House Bill 6 calls the bailout a "clean air" program but would allow both coal and natural gas to also qualify for the subsidies, while restricting renewable energy from the same and simultaneously dismantling the energy efficiency and renewable portfolio standards from which Ohio has benefited since they were passed in 2008.
The bill has been rushed through the process, as FirstEnergy claims it needs to have the money in time for its next refueling. The Ohio House's Energy and Natural Resources Subcommittee on Energy Generation even met during the legislative spring break for hearings on House Bill 6, to push the bill forward. Four hearings have been held (two in the subcommittee and two in the Ohio House Energy and Natural Resources Committee), and the bill could be voted out of committee and head to the floor as early as May 14.
Credit Support Rider
In 2016, the PUCO granted FirstEnergy $612 million through the distribution modernization rider. However, the rider does not commit any funds to modernize FirstEnergy's grid; rather, it was supposed to stabilize the company's credit rating. FirstEnergy recently asked for a two-year extension of the original rider (which expires in December 2019). The decision is currently pending at the commission.
How does FirstEnergy wield influence?
Campaign Cash
During the last two election cycles (2015-2018), FirstEnergy's political action committee (PAC) and employees contributed over $1.2 million to legislative and statewide candidates, including contributions to candidates for the Ohio Supreme Court.
During the 2018 election cycle, the FirstEnergy PAC hit the primary and general election campaign contribution limits by contributing $25,415.58 to Larry Householder's campaign committee Friends of Householder.
During the last two election cycles (2015-2018), FirstEnergy's PAC and employees contributed $281,717 to Republican Party committees and $45,500 to Democratic Party committees.
During the 2018 election, Larry Householder had his eye on being the speaker. The nonprofit news organization Inside Climate News noted that a dozen Republican candidates received contributions of the same size from Friends of Householder ($7,707.79) during the 2018 primaries. Seven of those candidates also received payments from FirstEnergy's PAC (between $5,000 and $13,700).
In January 2017, Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder and one of his sons traveled to President Donald Trump's inauguration on a FirstEnergy corporate plane.
FirstEnergy has 13 lobbyists, including the following "hired gun" lobbyists: the Success Group's Anthony Aquillo, Richard Ayish, and McKenzie Davis; Calfee, Halter & Griswold's Leah Pappas Pomer and Joshua Sanders; the CJR Group's Josh Rubin and Brittany Warner; and MJK Consulting's Michael Koren.
There are four lobbyists advocating for FirstEnergy Solutions, including the following contract lobbyists: the Oxley Group's Juan Cespedes and Robert Schuerger, and Geoffrey Verhoff of the DC-based Akin Gump (who is also the Republican National Committee's Finance Chair). Brian Durdle and Lori Herf from Baker Hostetler represent the FirstEnergy Solution Bondholder Group at the Ohio Statehouse.
Together, from 2015-2018, these well-connected contract lobbyists for FirstEnergy contributed nearly $200,000 to statewide and legislative candidates' campaigns.
Secret money: What we don't know
Last year, the Center for Public Integrity reported that a secret money [4] group had targeted former State Rep. Christina Hagan in the 16th congressional district's 2018 primary. Hagan concluded that the negative ads attacked her because she stood up to FirstEnergy. The TV ads were paid for by the Conservative Leadership Alliance. Marc Himmelstein, the Conservative Leadership Alliance's treasurer, was a FirstEnergy lobbyist for many years. The Center for Responsive Politics reviewed congressional lobbying filings and determined that since 2010, FirstEnergy has paid $640,000 to Himmelstein's firm, National Environmental Strategies.
We don't know whether FirstEnergy is using secret money to build public pressure this year. It is unclear how a pro-House Bill 6 TV advertisement is connected to FirstEnergy, but it is worth questioning. The ad features wind and solar energy and a series of "clean" images and include the line "Clean energy and clean air begin with clean government."
The television ad was paid for by a 501(c)(4) organization innocuously called Generation Now Inc. Unlike Ohio PACs, Generation Now does not have to file with the Ohio Secretary of State's office.
Here's What We Do Know
Generation Now Inc. has donated over $1 million to the Growth & Opportunity PAC, a conservative super PAC that has purchased significant media buys through groups such as CrossRoads Media and Storytellers Group. The statutory agent for both Generation Now Inc. and Growth & Opportunity PAC is the same person: David Eric Lycan, an attorney for Dinsmore & Shohl LLP. This is the same law firm that employs State Representative Bill Seitz (R-Cincinnati).
Lycan has also served as counsel for U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's re-election campaign.
Some Remaining Questions
Who funds Generation Now Inc.?
Who else funds Growth & Opportunity PAC?
Who else has Generation Now Inc. and Growth & Opportunity PAC produced ads for?
The database for the campaign contribution research is based on campaign finance filings available online at sos.state.oh.us/campaign-finance. This study examines contributions to state and county party committees and does not include considerable contributions to national political party committees from the FirstEnergy PAC and employees made during the following years: 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. Employee identification focused primarily on the candidate reporting in the campaign finance filings. If one or more campaign finance filings identified FirstEnergy as an employer and employer information is missing in other contribution records, Common Cause Ohio denoted the donors as affiliated with FirstEnergy.
Information about lobbyists in the state of Ohio is available at the legislative inspector general's and the Joint Legislative Ethics Committee's website, at https://www2.jlec-olig.state.oh.us/olac/.

Introducing the National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations' New Article Series, "National Council Analyses and Assessments"
When the National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations was established in 1983 and announced that its mission would be education, it stated that serving as a clearinghouse for information and insight would be one of its functions. To that end, the Council is delighted to announce the latest in its initiatives, an online article series titled "National Council Analyses and Assessments."
The National Council will seek to produce regularly a concise article on an aspect of U.S.-Arab relations or the Arab world, from Morocco to the Gulf and from Baghdad to Berbera and points in between. The authors will hail from across the globe. Each will have deep knowledge. All will have lived experience of the Arab world. The series will attempt to deliver unique analyses and views on contemporary affairs and policies. It will also seek to provide a forum for pieces on broader issues such as women's rights, climate change, and economic reform.
It is to be expected that readers have various outlets from which to choose for material on the Arab world and U.S. foreign relations. With that in mind, a purpose of the series will be to furnish readers with exceptional, thoughtful, and timely content difficult if not impossible to find elsewhere. Each piece will be chosen and edited with careful consideration of the issues at hand and an appropriate specialist to examine them.
For the launch of the series, two pieces on issues of importance are offered by dynamic, credible, and seasoned voices.
Imad Harb, Distinguished International Affairs Fellow at the National Council and an adjunct assistant professor at Georgetown University, discusses the array of poor policy options that the Obama administration faces in regard to Syria. He concludes that the president will likely continue to battle ISIS from the air, reject calls for American boots on the ground, and rely increasingly upon GCC country friends, allies, and strategic partners to support the fight against the government in Damascus.
Michael C. Hudson, Professor Emeritus at Georgetown University, former longtime director of the university's Center for Contemporary Arab Studies, and a member of the National Council's International Advisory Committee, writes on the crisis of the Arab state in the current, post-uprisings period. "Until effective leadership emanating from society emerges," he writes, "the Arab center — the millions of ordinary citizens who rose up — will remain on the periphery."
The National Council's hope is that as many people as possible will become regular and avid readers of the series. To that end, anyone's and everyone's comments and suggestions will be welcomed and appreciated.

York Civil War Round Table
Civil War Books
Submitted by Ilena Di Toro

The Battle of the Brogue?
York County, Pennsylvania, saw several small skirmishes during the Gettysburg Campaign, as well as the June 30, 1863, Battle of Hanover which remains the largest military engagement in the county's history. The second largest fight during the Civil War occurred two days earlier when more than 2,000 Confederates tried to seize the covered bridge at Wrightsville (then the longest covered bridge in the world). I document many of these long-forgotten Civil war skirmishes (such as the fights at Rossville and York Haven) in a past Cannonball blog.
One incident of gunfire that did not make the list occurred at the Brogue, a tiny village in southeastern York County on today's Route 74 between Red Lion and Airville.
It had all the markings of a potential tragedy. Lengthening evening shadows only a week after the fighting at Wrightsville and just two days after the end of the Battle of Gettysburg. Nervous citizens frightened from days of constant fear that the Rebel cavalry was coming to take their horses. Relatively inexperienced Union cavalrymen, chased by veteran Rebels from Gettysburg all the way to Columbia, who now patrolled York County roads looking for Rebel deserters and abandoned horses.
Fortunately, no one was hurt although several farmers had to spend time collecting themselves (and their loved ones and horses) after the gunfire and the ensuing panic.
Here is the story of "the Battle of the Brogue," as taken from the July 7, 1863, issue of the York Gazette.
Adapted from Google Maps
In the third week of June, 1863, the First Troop, Philadelphia Cavalry had been patrolling the roads in western Adams County watching for reports of Confederate activity near South Mountain. On Friday, June 26, Jubal Early's division marched into Adams County, seized Gettysburg, scattered the defenders including the Philadelphians, and camped overnight. The First Troopers retreated to York and then, on June 27, rode farther eastward and clattered across the long bridge into Columbia. They were engaged on the 28th in the skirmish at Wrightsville.
Early in July, with the covered bridge now burned, they used flatboats to take their horses back into York County. They rounded up more than 100 Rebel deserters and stragglers, as well as collecting 100+ horses that they brought back to York to be corralled until ownership could be established.
Now, on Sunday, July 5, the troopers were again on patrol, accompanied by other Union forces that had arrived by then.
That's when the excitment began.
"Fighting in the County" read the subsequent headline in the Gazette, which reprinted an article from The Pennsylvanian, another local paper.
"A terrible excitement was caused in the lower end of this county, around the Brogue, last Sunday evening. A few hundred Union troops marched down the Brogue road, and the citizens of that section having had pickets extended for a few miles, the latter mistook the former for rebels, firing upon them, and then running away in consternation, and alarming the whole country, for miles around. The fright is said to have been almost beyond description. Many persons cut the harness from horses which had been hitched to wagons and teams, and fled with the animals—whole families ran and sought hiding places in the hills, and other places,—and man and beast, promiscuously, were running around in wild confusion. A few hours elapsed before the mistake became known, and it was difficult to collect families and animals together."
Thus ended "the Battle of the Brogue," a forgotten chapter in York County's Civil War history.

National MP Nuk Korako retiring from politics
Jason Walls, NZ Herald ,
Monday, 15 April 2019, 2:43PM
National MP Nuk Korako will deliver his valedictory speech on May 1 and will officially leave Parliament on May 16. (Photo / Supplied)
National MP Nuk Korako is retiring from politics to make way for a new National candidate to contest the Christchurch electorate of Port Hills.
His departure was relatively unexpected and National Leader Simon Bridges said he was "sorry to see him announce his retirement from Parliament".
Korako will deliver his valedictory speech on May 1 and will officially leave Parliament on May 16.
He has been a list MP for five years. There will be no byelection in the electorate, given his is a list MP.
"I wanted to retire now so a new National Party candidate could be selected and have time to get to know the issues and people of Port Hills well ahead of the election."
The current MP for Port Hills is Ruth Dyson – who has held the seat (which has undergone several boundary changes) since 1993.
She announced earlier this years she will retire from politics before the 2020 election.
Korako said he expected National to do well in the 2020 race for Port Hills.
"I will be there to support the new candidate when they are selected."
In a statement, Bridges praised Korako and his contribution to politics over the past half-decade.
"Nuk was instrumental as chair of the National Party Māori Caucus in developing Māori capability within the National Party. He established the regional Kahurangi National Māori Groups and will continue this work."
Korako said it has been privilege and a pleasure to work for the Port Hills community.
"We have shared some trying times together. The earthquakes, the Port Hills fires and the recent terror attack. I leave knowing our community has grown together and become stronger."
He said he was especially proud to have chaired the Māori Affairs Select Committee - shepherding 16 Treaty Settlements to a conclusion.
"The Parihaka settlement is a particularly poignant one for me. Te Whiti and the Taranaki men that were wrongfully imprisoned were looked after by my Rāpaki hapū and so our ties run deep."
Korako said his focus will now turn to a range of opportunities that he will pursue.
He is also looking forward to spending more time with his wife Chris and their four sons.

4 Valuable Life Lessons (That We Never Follow)
Jason Iannone ·
Whenever we hear some tired old platitude designed to teach us how to be responsible adults who can be left alone for 10 minutes without selling half our hair for rent money while eating the other half for sustenance, we tend to roll our eyes. After all, how much truth and power can some silly one-liner, useful only for those too lazy to come up with an original idea, actually have?
A lot, as it turns out. People utter these borderline cliches for a reason, one we tend not to realize until we've royally fucked up their intended lessons. Sadly, most of us need to kick our own asses once, twice, or a hundred times before we finally realize ...
If you have only a few bucks available but really need to pick up a few things for the house, it can be extremely tempting to cut corners and buy a $2 pack of generic batteries, or a tiny $20 vacuum, or a $30 "dozens of games already inside" bootleg gaming console.
Via Game Informer
Who needs Skyrim anyway? This baby's got FOUR TENNIS GAMES.
Unfortunately, not a single one of these will satisfy your needs longer than maybe a minute. The batteries will die out almost immediately, the vacuum will overheat after an extra gnarly dust bunny gets stuck in the vents, and good luck finding even one decent game on that shitty system. You'll find yourself back in the store far sooner than intended, on the hunt for Duracells, a Dyson, and the coveted Ninsonysoft X-Station One-60 Thrii Box.
This is "you get what you pay for" in its purest form -- you spend a little bit of money on a hunk of dried yak vomit, quickly realize dried yak vomit clashes with the wallpaper, and then have to spend more money on a legitimate product that does actual things.

"It's a box. You put things inside it. It's a hell of an investment, '50s guy."
It doesn't take much more than a glance at your bank account to realize how bad an idea this is, and that you truly do get what you pay for. While buying top-of-the-line shit is financial torture at first, you'll make that money back soon enough. Once you do, you'll find that, holy sack, the vacuum you bought months ago is still perfectly good. You'll have that same reaction years, decades, maybe even centuries later.
I myself have been slow to learn this lesson, even though I'm the one writing about it. My main bugaboo is how I constantly attempt to improve my life with anything and everything from local yard sales, while forgetting that my friendly neighbors sold me that dirty 10-year-old coffee pot for $1.50 for a very good reason.
With a crack in the pot as an added bonus! I didn't even have to pay extra for it!
Staying away from cheap shit is several universes away from simply getting good deals on good stuff, by the way. A half-price package of General Electric light bulbs is awesome, because the brand name guarantees a proven and reliable product. On the other hand, even if a box of Bob's Bulbs from the Dollar Depot costs less, stay the fuck far away. They'll work just long enough to illuminate your spouse's face as he or she threatens you with murder unless you get some real goddamn bulbs right goddamn now, but that's it.

Give Yourself Extra Time for Everything

I do this at-home-writing thing full time. And thank Clapton, because I may be the worst commuter of all time. Ideally, I should be awake, showered, shaved, fed, and ready to go with tons of time to spare. Hey, with enough time, I might even fit a few pushups or squats into my morning routine (yeah, sure I would).
In Reality World, if it takes me 30 minutes to get somewhere, I'll wake up with maybe 35 minutes to go. Five minutes of showering become 20, I do the Superman quick change into the first set of clothes I can find, and, oh yeah, food can go fuck itself. I bolt to the car, start driving, swear repeatedly at all the douchebags who dare obey the speed limit, and am shocked when I arrive 15 minutes late with a rumbly tumbly.

"Unless those are corn dogs, you need to fuck off."
You don't have to be this shitty with morning routines to understand my point. The concept behind giving yourself a ton of time to get ready for anything is a shockingly tough one to grasp. On the surface, it makes perfect sense and should be easy to implement. Our brains, which don't give a crap about our social evolution and still see us as a bunch of dumbass tree-dwelling apes, often forget to factor in anything beyond "remember pants this time." Preparing for intangibles takes thought and effort, and nuts to that when SportsCenter needs watching.
You plan a road trip, and Google Maps clocks the travel time at seven hours. This almost certainly will not happen. After a dozen traffic jams, endless construction, pee breaks, poop breaks, long lines at the tollbooth, and your inability to decide between a Big Mac and a Double Quarter Pounder at the rest stop McDonald's, you arrive four hours later than you envisioned, and with maybe a quarter of your hair left over.

The Han Solo "sorry about the mess" line just doesn't sound as badass in this situation.
This shit starts at school, by the way. Have you ever started writing a paper or book report the night before it was due? How often did that rush of panic actually produce anything beyond a rapid pulse and a dozen saunas' worth of sweat?
Ideally, as you tend to figure out after the Fs and groundings commence, a paper should be drafted days beforehand. Then, almost at your leisure, you can refine and revise and make it as paperlicious as possible. You can hand your teacher something like that with pride and without smelling like an NBA locker room.

Smoooooth.
As for me, I'm getting better at clock management. So, ladies (particularly, late-'90s pop star Natalie Imbruglia), don't let my tale of woe deter you from messaging me and setting up a romantic dinner for two. I'll get there on time.
5 Weird Lessons You Learn Being A TV Show Extra
Preventive Maintenance Is Cheaper Than Emergency Repair
Noel Hendrickson/Digital Vision/Getty Images
This might be the most frustrating lesson one could possibly learn, because it's often unavoidable. A major appliance, like your sink or your fridge, is a bit dinged up and needs a professional to help make it purr again. Yes, sinks purr, and you don't even need to stuff the cat down the drain to make it happen.
The problem is, professionals charge money. And, if you're anything like me (which, again, is a horrible idea), you don't have a lot of it. Unless you're willing to cut your family's grocery bill down to one Cup O' Noodle a month, you're probably going to have to forgo calling Repair City.
Thinkstock/Stockbyte/Getty Images
"Lunchtime, kids!"
Eventually, though, what happens? The thing dies outright. The sink refuses to drain, and suddenly water's all over the place like Splash Mountain from hell. Or the refrigerator stops cooling the second you stick $300 worth of groceries in there. Now you're forced into buying a new one, or you give in and hire somebody to fix every last hole in the old one. You're now out way more money than you would have been if you had just spent a few bucks on proper maintenance every so often.
At the same time, can you truly beat yourself up for this? If you have only $100 to spare for the next month, would you rather pay a doctor to find out why your chest is so tight lately, or pay Mario Brothers Plumbing to make your garbage disposal less noisy? Both are important, but now you're forced to choose which one is more important -- an agonizing and frustrating decision indeed.
I got slapped in the face by this about two years ago, when my car failed inspection. I'd tell you exactly what was wrong, but my knowledge of cars begins and ends with "they're pretty and go vroom." Let's just say the engine was on fire and leave it at that.
Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images
"Does anyone have a screwdriver? I think I can save it."
I learned it would cost me over $3,000 to repair my baby. Yeah, I quickly abandoned my baby and adopted a newer, cuter one. I blame myself, as five-plus years of procrastinating on tuneups and ignoring problem after mounting problem because my stupid, stinky landlord wanted big-dumb-jerk rent money all the time came back to cornhole me in the form of a very dead vehicle.
At the same time, what else could I have done? When forced to choose between overhauling an engine and keeping my apartment, I consistently chose "apartment," just like you'd probably do. If you're in a similar situation and truly can't afford preventive maintenance, please don't beat yourself up -- there's precious little you can do.
Well, except learn to fix stuff yourself, or make a shitload more money. Either of those always helps. So get to it, ya slacker.

5 Catastrophes Caused By Idiots Trying To Prevent Them
Creatas/Creatas/Getty Images
We hear about putting our health first time and again, and it sounds pretty reasonable. However, we realize we're supposed to always put health first, day in and day out, which sounds far less so, namely because that leaves exactly zero days to eat an entire quadruple-chocolate cake in one sitting.
Oh, starting an exercise routine and a healthy new diet is easy enough. We're good at writing Chapter 1, especially when it's preceded by a prologue where the hero comes face to face with mortality. The second you realize something isn't right here -- your favorite pants are suddenly too tight, you can't make it to the bathroom without sucking wind, you pee frosting -- you resolve to make a change, regardless of whether it's New Year's Day. And for a short while, it works. You work out every day, trim your menu down to boiled kale and plain yogurt, and make everything an excuse to squat. As a result, you drop a few pounds, it now takes three trips to the toilet to get winded, and overall you're looking and feeling great.
Ryan McVay/Photodisc/Getty Images
"Well, hello there, Wang Chung. It's been a while since we've seen each other."
And how do you react? You forget to exercise one day. But that's OK, because it's a "rest day." You slack on your diet and order a pizza. But that's OK, because it's a "cheat day." Unfortunately, often one rest or cheat day extends into another, and another, and suddenly you're back to your old fat and winded self. All that progress made by eating well and moving around now means absolutely nothing.
Eventually you'll start to feel like shit again and realize that your lifestyle needs to change, stat, and the cycle begins anew. And this will keep cycling until one of two things happens: you stick to it and become a non-roidy version of the Rock, or you drop dead of heart disease at way too young an age.
George Doyle/Stockbyte/Getty Images
But goddamn, those pizza rolls were worth it.
It's taken me forever to figure this out, and I've paid for my ignorance. Literally. In my continuous start-stop attempts to get in shape, I've purchased at least five goddamned gym memberships throughout my life, none of which I've utilized even sporadically. I always had something better to do than work out, even though that "something better" was usually "update Myspace."
Each time, I convince myself it'll be different. I'm going to go five times a week. I'll spend two hours a day there. I'll actually work out instead of lounging at the juice bar all day, watching Judge Judy.
Nope to all counts, because I quickly remember why I stopped going every other time -- every hour spent walking up imaginary stairs and lifting heavy chunks of metal is an hour spent not masturbating, doing something productive, or masturbating while doing something productive. So I scale back from five times a week to three, then down to two, then one, and then, fuck it: I'm fat, just gonna accept it.
Digital Vision./Digital Vision/Getty Images
"This is the episode where Judy yells at dumb people. I can't miss this one."
But you don't have to accept it, or anything else, for that matter. Learn from your mistakes, get better, stay better, and, perhaps most importantly, never ever, ever, ever be like me.
Don't be like Jason, but follow him on Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr anyway. That way he'll finally stop crying.

Pace and Co line up in Morocco
12th March 2014 By: Lali Stander
Lee-Anne Pace Photo: Catherine Kotze / SASPA
South Africa's Lee-Anne Pace and compatriots Stacy-Lee Bregman, Kim Williams and Nicole Garcia will miss the final Chase to the Investec Cup for Ladies event this week for the 20th edition of the Lalla Meryem Cup at the Golf de l'Océan in Agadir, Morocco.
Virtually assured of their spots in the Investec Cup for Ladies in two weeks, the four players elected to chase down a share of the €450,000 prize money on offer and will join Sunshine Ladies Tour regulars Nobuhle Dlamini from Swaziland and Namibia's Bonita Bredenhann, as well as South Africa's Connie Chen at the fifth Ladies European Tour event from 13-16 March.
Pace is hungry for success following three solid performances on the Sunshine Ladies Tour.
"I finished fourth at the Dimension Data Pro-Am, took third at the Chase to the Investec Cup for Ladies at Glendower and second at the SuperSport Challenge, so I think it's logical that a victory should follow," Pace joked before her departure for Morocco.
"Seriously though, I changed clubs and it's taken a couple of tournaments for me to get comfortable to the new ones. I'm driving the ball well now and I feel good about going into this week. It would definitely be great to go into the Investec Cup for Ladies will another top five finish under the belt."
Bregman is also looking to convert two top five finishes at home and a tie for third at the Volvik RACV Ladies Masters in Australia for her maiden pro win.
"I've come close a few times since I turned pro in 2007, but I just struggled to pull it through in the final round," said Bregman, who currently ranks sixth on the LET money list.
"Lately, I feel like I am ready to win. It is time to get the monkey off my back."
Williams, Garcia and Dlamini are among 25 rookies in the 126-strong field.
Chase to the Investec Cup for Ladies champion Williams and Dlamini will be making their LET debut, however, it's the second start for Garcia after missing the cut in her pro debut at the ISPS Handa New Zealand Open, hosted by Christchurch.
Garcia has certainly been knocking with top 10 finishes on the Sunshine Ladies Tour in the last couple of weeks and ranks fifth on the current Order of Merit.
"I'm very excited about Morocco this week," she said. "I was unprepared and overwhelmed in New Zealand. It was far more spectacular than I expected and I was intimidated by the spectators, the television cameras and the fanfare in the first round.
"I played significantly better the second round, but just missed the cut, so my first objective this week is to make it past the cut."
Although the Lalla Meryem Cup was inaugurated in 1993, this is only the fifth year that the tournament has featured on the Ladies European Tour schedule. It is unique in world golf in that two men's and women's European Tour events take place in the same city, during the same week.
Whilst the women compete in the Lalla Meryem Cup, the men will contest the 41st edition of the Hassan II Golf Trophy on the European Tour at nearby Golf du Palais Royal from Thursday and there are various shared functions and clinics as well as the prize giving.


Will you be paying your mortgage in your 70s?
Do you long for the day you'll be able to pay off your mortgage? Unfortunately, some people could find that it takes longer than they think, with many finding that their dreams of a debt-free retirement don't quite match up to reality.
Research from the Saga Equity Release Advice Service has found that one in three over-50s surveyed are still paying off their mortgage – on average, they still need to find £50,000 to be mortgage-free – and one in seven are still burdened with it in their 70s. These people will be faced with using their pension to pay off the remainder, and on average, they still have a worrying £40,000 left to pay.
Those still in their 50s will still have plenty of working years left to pay off their debt, but those a decade or two older may not have that luxury. This means that many retirees could find themselves in the unfortunate situation of using the pension savings they had earmarked for a few luxuries (or even everyday life) to pay off their mortgage instead, and they may not be able to enjoy the retirement they had planned as a result.
If you're faced with a hefty mortgage balance as you approach later life, there are things you can do to reverse your fortunes. What about remortgaging, or even discussing the options with your current lender? Around one in three over-50s have never tried to renegotiate their mortgage, despite the fact that shopping around could help them pay it off quicker – and could leave them with more money to enjoy their retirement – particularly if they remortgage to one of the fantastically low rates currently available.
However, some could be put off going down this route for fear that their age could be a disadvantage, with one in 10 over-50s surveyed admitting that they were concerned about their lender's maximum borrowing age. For some, this could be a justified fear, as 7% said they've been prevented from moving to a more competitive deal because of their age, but that doesn't mean all is lost.
For example, some lenders are realising the fact that, because the average age of a first-time buyer is rising, many will be paying off their mortgage at a later age than has previously been the norm, and some are loosening their restrictions accordingly. Then there's the fact that many people are staying in work for longer, which means a lack of income won't be an issue.
But, for borrowers who are in their 60s and 70s, there could be a viable alternative – a lifetime mortgage, otherwise known as equity release. This could be a great way to release some of the cash locked up in your home and could reduce the impact of monthly repayments, too, and as long as you consider all the options carefully, it could be worth considering.
Alex Edmans of Saga commented: "Millions of older homeowners have found themselves abandoned by mortgage lenders and stuck in uncompetitive deals because of the unfair age restrictions that many lenders have in place. For those in retirement struggling to meet their monthly mortgage costs, it may be worth considering a lifetime mortgage to help ease the burden of their monthly repayments.
"This may not be suitable for all, so it is well worth speaking with a specialist adviser, who would consider all alternatives and review whether any state benefits could help provide some relief. It is also extremely important that people discuss their options with their family or loved ones and we advise our customers to do this before taking out a lifetime mortgage."
There's a lot to think about when it comes to this kind of mortgage, so it's vital to discuss the options fully, both with your family and with a professional. If you want to know more about it and find out whether it could be for you, contact our no obligation equity release service to find out more, and you may not need to worry about paying off your mortgage in retirement.

Q: LINQ - which layer should LINQ typically fall into, DAL? just wanted to gather different ideas and perspectives as to which layer should (and why) LINQ fall into?

A: LINQ = Language INtegrated Queries. This is the query extensions that allows you to query anything from databases to lists/collections to XML. The query language is useful in any layer.
However, a lot of people refer to LINQ to SQL as just "LINQ". In that context, a combined BLL/DAL makes sense when you're using L2S and that's where you do LINQ queries against your database. That does of course not exclude doing subsequent queries against the results from those same queries in new (Linq to objects) queries in higher layers...

A: it depends on what you want to do with linq. when using linq2sql i`d recommend the DAL, but Linq is more than just database access. you can use it to manipulate lists, ienumerables of business objects and so on... Linq itself can be useful everywhere in your application.

A: I consider your DataContext-derived object to your DAL layer itself, and LINQ is just a very flexible interface to it.   Hence I use LINQ queries directly in the Business layer.

A: Both.  DataContext is the DAL and, when using the designer, the auto-generated partial classes that map on to SQL objects (tables,views) can be considered part of your business layer.  I implement partial classes that implement some of the partial methods to enforce validation and security as needed.  Some business rules don't map directly on to DB objects and are handled via other classes.

A: I think if you are doing Linq to Sql, you should always do it in your DAL. However if you are doing Linq to Objects where you are just filtering, playing with different object you can do that is BL layer.

A: I think LINQ should be the very lower-level (DAL) and I think it should be wrapped into a BLL.
I know a lot of people like to use the partial accessibility of the models that LINQ to SQL generates but I think you should have clear separation of interests (see what I did there?).  I think if you're going to have business logic it needs to be decoupled completely from your data access logic.
I think what makes it tricky is the fact that you can keep chaining those LINQ extension methods anywhere you have a using System.Linq line in your code.  Again though I think LINQ belongs with the definition and should be at the lowest possible level.  It also makes TDD/Unit Testing much, much easier when you wrap the usage of LINQ in a BLL.

A: I use linq in the traditional 'data access layer' or in 'data access objects'.  This allows modularization of code, promotes data code in one place (vs cutting and pasting the same code a few different places) and allows a different front end to be developed with relative ease.

A: It depends on the architecture of your application, and it makes a huge difference how much the presentation model matches the data model. I agree with separating out business logic operations from the data objects and access methods created by LINQ. I also tend to wrap all data-level operations inside a manager class so I can make the data context an internal class.

A: I think the point of Linq is that it replaces your DAL.
The equivalent to your old DAL is all the auto-generated code behinf the DBML files + anything extra that Linq can't do added by you.

Q: non-Resulting Arithmetic Expression I am practicing in batch program, so I am trying to write one include loop and arithmetic instructions. I wrote the following code:
@echo off
SET /a i=1
FOR /F %%A IN ('DIR /B') DO (
    SET /a i += %i% + %i% + 4
    ECHO %i%)

But the answer in each line is 1!
I tried writing this code with SET /a "i += %i% + %i% + 4", but the answer was the same.
I checked here
and here
but I found nothing related to this error.
even I removed the surrounded spaces in the mentioned line, but the answer was the same.

A: It is not the same set /a i=1 that set /a i = 1 . In the second case, you define a variable with a space in its name.
And if you do not use the /a arithmetic switch, but set i= 1, the space after the = will be included in the value of the variable.
But with this corrections, your problem is other
@echo off
    setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

    SET /a "i=1"
    FOR /F %%A IN ('DIR /B') DO (
        SET /a "i+=i+i+4"
        ECHO !i!
    )

    endlocal

When a block of code (code inside parenthesis) is parsed, all variable reads are replaced with the value in the variable before starting to execute the block. So, if you use %i% inside you block of code, as this variable read has been replaced with the value of the variable before starting to execute, you will not see the changed value echoed to console, but the initial 1 value. The variable is changing its value (the set is executed), but as the echo command is not accessing the variable, but using its value before start of the loop, the same value is echoed for all iterations.
If a variable is changed inside a block of code and the changed value needs to be accessed inside the same block of code, delayed expansion needs to be enabled, and syntax changed in the required variable access from %i% to !i! to indicate the parser that the access to the variable value should be delayed until execution of the command.

Govt cancels registration of 4,693 NGOs for being inactive, violating rules
The Sindh government has cancelled the registration of 4,693 non-governmental organisations (NGOs) all over the province for being inactive or grossly violating the rules prescribed by the government regarding their functioning.
A notification to this effect was issued by the Sindh social welfare secretary, which stated that the government had rescinded the registration of 4,693 NGOs as they had either gone inactive or shown sheer negligence in duly observing the rules of the provincial government.
The social welfare department took the decision to cancel the NGOs' registration in pursuance of a decision of the Sindh cabinet taken in August this year.
The notification reads: "Whereas notices were published in leading newspapers dated 30 August, 2018; 11 October, 2019; and 14th June, 2019 requiring all the voluntary social welfare organisations (NGOs) registered by the respective registration authorities, Social Welfare Department (in Sindh) under Voluntary Social Welfare Agencies (Registration & Control) Ordinance, 1961 to furnish annual audit report, annual progress report, election report, and to get renewal certificate as the registration authority(s) observed that majority of these NGOs/NPOs are reportedly inactive, untraceable, and non-responsive."
It adds that in spite of the publication of notices in the newspapers, no response was received from the NGOs, due to which the government had reasons to believe that the 4,693 registered NGOs had acted in contravention of their own constitution, provisions of the ordinance and rules made thereunder.
After the NGOs failed to file their responses, the matter was placed before the Sindh cabinet in its meeting held on August 3, 2019, which decided the cancellation of the said 4,693 NGOs, reads the notification.
"Therefore, pursuant to Sindh Cabinet decision (ibid) and in exercise of powers delegated vide Government of Sindh Notification No. SO(C-IV) SGA&CD/4-5/15 dated 7th October, 2019, the said 4693 Voluntary Social Welfare Agencies (NGOs) stand dissolved Under Section 10 of the Voluntary Social Welfare Agencies (Registration & Control) Ordinance 1961."
According to informed sources, 188 of such NGOs whose registration has been rescinded were registered in Hyderabad district, 248 in Larkana, 272 in Ghotki, 59 in Tharparkar, 236 in District Malir, 328 in Korangi, 43 in Umerkot, 101 in Mirpurkhas, and 211 in Badin districts.
A total of 56 such NGOs had been registered in Tando Allahyar and Tando Mohammad Khan districts each. The registration of 36 NGOs in Sujawal, 576 in Khairpur, 90 in Sukkur, 228 in Kashmore, 167 in Kamber-Shahdadkot and 133 in District Malir has also been cancelled.
A total of around 10,500 NGOs are currently registered in the province. According to informed sources, the registration of over 2,000 more such NGOs could be rescinded in a similar manner.

IFMR Graduate School of Business Krea University Moves to Seamless Learning During COVID-19
When the pandemic struck, the future of students hung in jeopardy. With uncertainty looming around how the classes will be conducted, internships completed, and placements secured, one b-school steered seamlessly through this crisis. The far-sighted management at IFMR Graduate School of Business Krea University understood the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the education sector and took prompt immediately.
IFMR GSB Krea University offers a two-year full-time MBA programme. With a commitment to academic and career advancement, IFMR GSB took a definite approach and moved forward. Here are 4Rs of how they offered seamless and sustainable learning to their students:
Rapid Action
IFMR GSB Krea University took immediate action and moved to an online learning mode. Term six courses for the final year students were completely online and resumed after while students, who had left the campus in mid-March, had reached their homes and settled in.
Ensuring seamless continuity of the classes, the learning process was streamlined and adapted quickly to the new norm during the global calamity. More than twenty courses were delivered online, amounting to 300 online classroom hours. Krea University also announced a partnership with Coursera to help students learn additional courses at their own pace.
Robust ICT in Place
A robust Information and Communication Technology infrastructure at IFMR GSB came in handy and complemented the learning ecosystem created during the crisis. The faculty and students were technologically well-versed with online learning modes like online discussion forums, assessments and evaluation. These pedagogical tools were already being used during regular classroom sessions. The IT team and the faculty successfully implemented the live streaming of online classes within a short time. The significant tech upgrade enabled seamless peer and faculty interaction.
Right Kind of Networking
The online classes enabled a new form of learning and new ways to interact with peers. The e-classrooms were thoroughly interactive and elicited active participation from students and faculty.
The idea of 'learning sans borders' harnessed the strong professional and academic network of Krea University. Under its aegis, IFMR GSB conducted more than 50 industry talks, four international dialogues, and over 60 social impact projects.
Due to the existing strong industry connections, students of IFMR GSB could complete internships and bag pre-placement offers. Global partnerships were signed by Krea University with world-renowned institutions like Berkeley Global, Nottingham Trent University, and D'Amore McKim School of Business at Northeastern. IFMR GSB students have availed of a 100% scholarship to pursue an online course in FinTech at NYU Stern School of Business.
IFMR GSB Krea University was actively involved in research projects, partnering with Initiative for What Works to Advance Women and Girls in the Economy (IWWAGE), Centre for Digital Financial Inclusion (CDFI), Evidence for Policy Design (EPoD) India, and the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL) to drive significant change and create an impact on society.
The MBA class of 2022 was welcomed in a first-of-its-kind online orientation, Prarambh 2020, where many senior industry and academic leaders spoke. With a growing and better understanding of the pandemic dynamics and a more sustainable learning model, the new session started with much enthusiasm.
Admissions to IFMR GSB for 2021-23 are now open and will close on 1st Feb 2021. To be a part of the exciting story, click here to apply.

WELCOME A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P R S T V W Z CREDITS
Rachel Rosa Probst Weinbach
Rachel Rosa Probst was born Ruchel Reisel to Rubin and Scheindle Neuwirt Probst on May 19, 1890, in Stryj, Poland, now in the western Ukraine. She had two sisters, Fayga and Pennina. A high school graduate, she worked in a bank prior to moving to Vienna when she married her husband Israel Weinbach on November 30, 1919. Israel had served in WWI. They had two sons, Bert, born in 1920, and Kurt, born in 1928.
When the Nazis annexed Austria in March 1938, Bert, now 17 years old, escaped to Tientsin (Tianjin), China, after attempting to travel to Paris to live with his paternal aunt, uncle and cousin. Rosa, Israel, and young Kurt remained in Vienna until January, 1941, when Israel's WWI officer, Heinrich Stumpfl, now a three-star general and Stadtkommandant (regional commander) of Vienna, saved the family so they could join Bert in Tientsin. (See also Kurt Weinbach entry). The General not only provided the family with exit visas but also paid for their first-class passage on the Trans-Siberian Express. Their visas to enter China were obtained through the ingenuity of Rosa who convinced the Japanese officials, now in control of China, that an invitation she had received from Kurt's brother, Bert, to join the Jewish community's social club in Tientsin constituted an official entry visa. Unfortunately Rachel's sister and father did not survive; they were killed in Stryj. Most of Israel's brothers and sisters and their spouses and children were also murdered.
Rachel, Israel, and Kurt, as well as Bert and his family, lived in Tientsin from 1941-1945 under Japanese rule and from 1945 to 1948 under the United States Marine control. Bert, his wife and their two young children, left with the Marines. Rachel, Israel and Kurt remained for six more months, living under the Communist government. In 1949 they emigrated to Israel where her husband died three months after their arrival succumbing to the aftereffects of war and resettlement as well as the difficulty of obtaining medical care in a very new country.
In March 1957 Rachel came to Rochester, New York, with her son Kurt to be reunited with Bert and his family who had emigrated first to Canada than to Rochester. She immediately became active at the Jewish Community Center and Congregation Beth Sholom. An educated woman, she made a strong impression on all with whom she came into contact. Proud of her abilities, she was artistic and creative. She redesigned all of her own clothing. A family treasure was a painting of Cinderella that she made in Stryj and that traveled with her from her native Poland to Vienna, to China, to Israel and finally to Rochester. She passed away on March 2, 1971 where her two sons, their wives and their children were united.


Discussion in 'Home Cinema Control & Remote Controls' started by MassiveJim, Mar 13, 2013.
I have a cambridge audio AZUR 540R amp that sometimes doesn't pickup the IR signal from the remote (a common problem I beleive), if you are not pointing the remote directly at it it doesn't seem to want to play ball.
It is very VERY annoying and I would like to know if there is anything I can do about it.
There is nothing in front of the amp blocking the signal.
Is that with the amp's original remote? I have a Panny BR recorder which behaves similarly in that the remote is highly directional. You could try getting (or borrowing) a cheap programmable remote to see if things improve with a different remote.
Although from memory I seem to remember the harmony is better than the original remote.
I guess the obvious option is to get an IR extender and place the IR eye on the amp receiver.
I sympathise - I've had a similar problem before.
I agree, if it's not the remote, an IR extender would seem a logical option.
An expensive option would be to get a remote such as the Harmony 900 which allows RF control of IR emitters which you could precisely position. The advantage of this system is that you would not need to worry about pointing the remote when controlling your amp.
Any reccomendations for an IR extender that has excellent reception, and that can also output to multiple sender units.
There are a lot of them, and they all do the same job in much the same way.
One unit takes the IR commands from the original remotes and converts that to RF, which it sends to the second unit for conversion back to IR, which it emits, either directly to the devices, or by small emitters wired into it and attached to the devices.

A Good Home Studio Mic
There are plenty of affordable studio microphones available. One of the most popular is the Shure SM7. Used by many professional recording artists such as Foo Fighters, Adele and Lana Del Rey (to name a few) but is a top choice for voice over artists as well.
It has a warm sound and is easy to use in any room to get a consistent sound without a lot of set up. The Shure SM7 has the ability to give you a big studio sound even if you are recording your vocal tracks in the back of a tour bus. It...

INTERNETJOCK Q&A with Roberta K.
What brought you to do Voiceovers?
Growing up everyone told me that I had a unique voice. People would comment and tell me the "crackle, raspy sound" in my voice was quite lovely and of course the low range caused others to tell me I sounded just like Demi Moore and Debra Winger and I should definitely consider recording commercials! So I decided to study broadcast journalism and voice acting in college....soon after graduating I landed a news reporter position at a CBS Affiliate and started to record hundreds of commercials for the station and for advertisers across the country! Fast forward 20 years and it's still what I love to do! My voice career...

Q: ¿Por qué me sale este error de compilación al descargar Angular? Esta imagen muestra el sistema en el que trabajo
He descargado Angular para un proyecto nuevo, y al ejecutar el comando ng serve, me aparece el siguiente error:

Aún así al hacer ctrl + click en localhost:4200 redirige a una pantalla en blanco con un mensaje ==>
cannot get /
Quiero manifestar además que he eliminado node_modules e instalado nuevamente con npm install, cambié en app.component.ts en styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] a [app.component.scss'] y tampoco.
Quiero aclarar que mi sistema operativo es windows 7. No se a qué se debe no poder acceder al localhost para poder ver mi archivo y continuar con el proyecto.
Muchas gracias, por dedicar un poco de su tiempo para ayudar.


Kiddy consignment shop like a boss!
There's no question that raising a little one can really start to add up, and fast, but there's an easy way to save money on stuff for baby early on – consignment shopping! You can get everything from maternity clothes to baby's toys on consignment, and save a diaper-load of natural resources while saving serious money.
… are you getting the picture?
Babies and kids grow and tire of toys quickly, making consignment shops a key part of the solution.
We hardly bought anything new because there's just so much out there that is barely used (and 1/4 the price). Here are the items that we DID buy new: bottles, breast pump (I needed one quickly while at the hospital but you can easily find them lightly used), cloth diapers (again, tons used ones for sale), and organic cotton sheets. Everything else, from car seat to stroller to high chair to co-sleeper crib to eco mattress we got gently used.
Be sure to watch the episode to get my simple tips on how to walk away with the best deals on new-to-you baby loot from consignment stores.
Make a pile of gently used clothes/items that you don't use any more to bring to consignment, and then use the credits you earn to buy goodies for baby. Depending on how much you bring in, you may be able to walk away with your baby-haul with zero out-of-pocket cost (how's that for a cha-ching?! 😉 ).
Use websites like Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Yerdle and eBay for anything-under-the-sun-baby.
Dig up some affordable kiddy clothes by googling "kids consignment near me" – then walk away from the computer, into car… and voila! You're a consignment boss.
Local (Santa Barbara County) shout out to OnederChild, the consignment shop in our community that not only donates gently used items to children in need, but they are now also donating individually-selected new items to children affected by the fires and floods.
The average cost of raising a kiddo until the age of two can top $13,430?
