Biotech & Health Services
Third Quarter Report
IVST 0.1611 (-8.18%)
Media Efforts Take Root Ahead of Development
View at GlobeNewswire.com
CLEVELAND, Aug. 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Innovest Global Inc. (OTC Markets: IVST) (the "Company" or "Innovest"), a diversified holding company with operations in commercial and industrial products and services, energy, biotechnology and health services, is seeing results from its recent initiative to generate public interest in its accomplishments.
In August, efforts resulted in a feature article in the Los Angeles Business Journal, related to StemVax Therapeutics, a holding of our biotechnology division. Additionally, there is a feature scheduled in the Biotech edition of Delta Sky Magazine's October special Biotech edition, which has over six million highly engaged readers in prime demographic, and the company was thrilled that this Innovest update was unexpectedly selected by Release Wire, as the top front page article they ran with this weekend.
"We are transitioning from sharing what we 'plan to do' by paying for marketing exposure, to letting media know what we 'have done' and being a truly interesting company worthy of coverage. That's very exciting," said, Chief Executive Officer, Dan Martin. "As we tie up our first audit, uplist and new acquisition items in the coming days, and our security registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission thereafter, we will have planted as many seeds as possible for a large audience to see us for what we will have become - a legitimate, high growth publicly traded company doing meaningful things in a select few attractive industries."
To evolve the awareness strategy, Innovest recently engaged Hayden IR.com, an established investor relations firm, and earlier this month hired a VP of Marketing and Communications, Derek McCarthy, who has helped public companies navigate these items for the past ten years. The initial results speak for themselves.
Dan Martin summarized the process and his reasoning, "We had a nice start this year. Now we've got significant interest from institutional investors who help companies like Innovest grow, by providing large investments for acquisitions. It's our job to get those deals in place on the best possible terms for the company. Things like audits, and being SEC registered and uplisted, all reduce risk for investors, give us better terms, and expand the audience willing to hold Innovest stock. As does media coverage and public interest in general. There is nothing more important than our long-term execution, and nothing more important to shareholder value than the initial terms of big deals being attractive. I'm interested in our current stock price and happy with our gains this year, but I've got the team focused on taking time to do things right, and executing on the foundation of our long term strategy, so that those first big deals are great for shareholders and we head into 2019 with a strong foundation. It's an uncommon strategy for a pink sheet company, but I feel like our results in the market have shown that our OTC investors are patient and appreciate our willingness to stand firm on long-term focus and not cut corners to accommodate short-term thinking. The media coverage efforts will be an invaluable part of this equation as we grow."

Scientists Show Effectiveness of Migraine Drug for Weight Loss
TOPICS:ObesityPopularUT Southwestern Medical CenterWeight Loss
By UT Southwestern Medical Center July 12, 2022
New research suggests that a commonly prescribed class of migraine drugs may also be useful in treating obesity.
Mice taking triptan migraine drugs ate less and lost more weight than other animals.
A commonly prescribed class of migraine drugs, triptans, may also be effective in treating obesity, according to a new study by scientists at UT Southwestern. In experiments on obese mice, a daily dose of a triptan led animals to eat less food and lose weight over the course of a month, the team reported on July 7 in the Journal of Experimental Medicine.
"We've shown that there is real potential to repurpose these drugs, which are already known to be safe, for appetite suppression and weight loss," said study leader Chen Liu, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Internal Medicine and Neuroscience and an investigator in the Peter O'Donnell Jr. Brain Institute.
"We found that these drugs, and one in particular, can lower body weight and improve glucose metabolism in less than a month, which is pretty impressive." — Chen Liu, Ph.D.
Obesity, which affects more than 41% of all adults in the U.S., is a huge health problem and increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and certain types of cancer. Currently, most treatments for obesity focus on eating habits and physical activity.
For a long time scientists have known that serotonin, a chemical messenger found throughout the brain and body, plays a key role in appetite. However, there are 15 different serotonin receptors – molecules that sense serotonin and signal for cells to change their behavior in response. Researchers have struggled to understand the role of each serotonin receptor in appetite, and previous drugs – including fen-phen and lorcaserin (Belviq) – that targeted certain individual receptors have been withdrawn from the market due to side effects.
Triptans, which are used to treat acute migraines and cluster headaches, work by targeting a different receptor – the serotonin 1B receptor (Htr1b) – that had not previously been well studied in the context of appetite and weight loss, said Dr. Liu.
For the new study, the scientists tested six prescription triptans in obese mice that were fed a high-fat diet for seven weeks. Mice fed two of these drugs ate about the same amount, but mice fed the other four ate less. After 24 days, mice given a daily dose of the drug frovatriptan lost, on average, 3.6% of their body weight, while mice not given a triptan gained an average of 5.1% of their body weight. Dr. Liu and his colleagues saw similar results when they implanted devices into the animals that gave them a steady dose of frovatriptan for 24 days.
"We found that these drugs, and one in particular, can lower body weight and improve glucose metabolism in less than a month, which is pretty impressive," said Dr. Liu.
Since triptans are generally prescribed for short-term use during migraines, Dr. Liu suspects that patients would not have noticed the longer-term impacts on appetite and weight in the past.
To determine exactly how frovatriptan impacts food intake and weight, the researchers engineered mice to lack either Htr1b or Htr2c, the serotonin receptor targeted by fen-phen and lorcaserin. In mice without Htr1b, frovatriptan no longer could decrease appetite or cause weight loss, while cutting out Htr2c had no effect. This confirmed that the drug worked by targeting the serotonin 1B receptor.
"This finding could be important for drug development," said Dr. Liu. "We not only shed light on the potential to repurpose existing triptans but also brought attention to Htr1b as a candidate to treat obesity and regulate food intake."
The team went on to show exactly which neurons in the brain were most important for the role of Htr1b in mediating appetite, homing in on a small group of cells within the brain's hypothalamus.

Judg 1-2
Judges 1-2
< Joshua 24Judges 1-2Judges 3 >
Judah and Simeon Capture Adoni-bezek
11 After the death of Joshua the people of Israel inquired of the Lord, "Who shall go up first for us against the Canaanites, to fight against them?" 2 The Lord said, "Judah shall go up; behold, I have given the land into his hand." 3 And Judah said to Simeon his brother, "Come up with me into the territory allotted to me, that we may fight against the Canaanites; and I likewise will go with you into the territory allotted to you." So Simeon went with him. 4 Then Judah went up and the Lord gave the Canaanites and the Per'izzites into their hand; and they defeated ten thousand of them at Bezek. 5 They came upon Ado'ni-be'zek at Bezek, and fought against him, and defeated the Canaanites and the Per'izzites. 6 Ado'ni-be'zek fled; but they pursued him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes. 7 And Ado'ni-be'zek said, "Seventy kings with their thumbs and their great toes cut off used to pick up scraps under my table; as I have done, so God has requited me." And they brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
Judah Conquers Jerusalem and Hebron
8 And the men of Judah fought against Jerusalem, and took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and set the city on fire.
9 And afterward the men of Judah went down to fight against the Canaanites who dwelt in the hill country, in the Negeb, and in the lowland. 10 And Judah went against the Canaanites who dwelt in Hebron (now the name of Hebron was formerly Kir'iath-ar'ba); and they defeated She'shai and Ahi'man and Talmai.
Othniel Conquers Debir and Receives Achsah
11 From there they went against the inhabitants of Debir. The name of Debir was formerly Kir'iath-se'pher. 12 And Caleb said, "He who attacks Kir'iath-se'pher and takes it, I will give him Achsah my daughter as wife." 13 And Oth'ni-el the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife. 14 When she came to him, she urged him to ask her father for a field; and she alighted from her ass, and Caleb said to her, "What do you wish?" 15 She said to him, "Give me a present; since you have set me in the land of the Negeb, give me also springs of water." And Caleb gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.
The Extent of the Conquests of Judah and Benjamin
16 And the descendants of the Ken'ite, Moses' father-in-law, went up with the people of Judah from the city of palms into the wilderness of Judah, which lies in the Negeb near Arad; and they went and settled with the people. 17 And Judah went with Simeon his brother, and they defeated the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. So the name of the city was called Hormah. 18 Judah also took Gaza with its territory, and Ash'kelon with its territory, and Ekron with its territory. 19 And the Lord was with Judah, and he took possession of the hill country, but he could not drive out the inhabitants of the plain, because they had chariots of iron. 20 And Hebron was given to Caleb, as Moses had said; and he drove out from it the three sons of Anak.
21 But the people of Benjamin did not drive out the Jeb'usites who dwelt in Jerusalem; so the Jeb'usites have dwelt with the people of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.
Joseph Conquers Beth-el
22 The house of Joseph also went up against Bethel; and the Lord was with them. 23 And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Bethel. (Now the name of the city was formerly Luz.) 24 And the spies saw a man coming out of the city, and they said to him, "Pray, show us the way into the city, and we will deal kindly with you." 25 And he showed them the way into the city; and they smote the city with the edge of the sword, but they let the man and all his family go. 26 And the man went to the land of the Hittites and built a city, and called its name Luz; that is its name to this day.
The Extent of the Conquests of Manasseh and Ephraim
27 Manas'seh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-she'an and its villages, or Ta'a-nach and its villages, or the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its villages, or the inhabitants of Megid'do and its villages; but the Canaanites persisted in dwelling in that land. 28 When Israel grew strong, they put the Canaanites to forced labor, but did not utterly drive them out. 29 And E'phraim did not drive out the Canaanites who dwelt in Gezer; but the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.
The Extent of the Conquests of the Other Tribes
30 Zeb'ulun did not drive out the inhabitants of Kitron, or the inhabitants of Na'halol; but the Canaanites dwelt among them, and became subject to forced labor. 31 Asher did not drive out the inhabitants of Acco, or the inhabitants of Sidon, or of Ahlab, or of Achzib, or of Helbah, or of Aphik, or of Rehob; 32 but the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; for they did not drive them out. 33 Naph'tali did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth-she'mesh, or the inhabitants of Beth-anath, but dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth-she'mesh and of Beth-anath became subject to forced labor for them. 34 The Amorites pressed the Danites back into the hill country, for they did not allow them to come down to the plain; 35 the Amorites persisted in dwelling in Har-heres, in Ai'jalon, and in Sha-al'bim, but the hand of the house of Joseph rested heavily upon them, and they became subject to forced labor. 36 And the border of the Amorites ran from the ascent of Akrab'bim, from Sela and upward.
The Angel of the LORD at Bochim
21 Now the angel of the Lord went up from Gilgal to Bochim. And he said, "I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you into the land which I swore to give to your fathers. I said, 'I will never break my covenant with you, 2 and you shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall break down their altars.' But you have not obeyed my command. What is this you have done? 3 So now I say, I will not drive them out before you; but they shall become adversaries to you, and their gods shall be a snare to you." 4 When the angel of the Lord spoke these words to all the people of Israel, the people lifted up their voices and wept. 5 And they called the name of that place Bochim; and they sacrificed there to the Lord.
The Death of Joshua
6 When Joshua dismissed the people, the people of Israel went each to his inheritance to take possession of the land. 7 And the people served the Lord all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work which the Lord had done for Israel. 8 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the Lord, died at the age of one hundred and ten years. 9 And they buried him within the bounds of his inheritance in Tim'nath-he'res, in the hill country of E'phraim, north of the mountain of Ga'ash. 10 And all that generation also were gathered to their fathers; and there arose another generation after them, who did not know the Lord or the work which he had done for Israel.
Israel's Apostasy and the Ministry of the Judges
11 And the people of Israel did what was evil in the sight of the Lord and served the Ba'als; 12 and they forsook the Lord, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt; they went after other gods, from among the gods of the peoples who were round about them, and bowed down to them; and they provoked the Lord to anger. 13 They forsook the Lord, and served the Ba'als and the Ash'taroth. 14 So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he gave them over to plunderers, who plundered them; and he sold them into the power of their enemies round about, so that they could no longer withstand their enemies. 15 Whenever they marched out, the hand of the Lord was against them for evil, as the Lord had warned, and as the Lord had sworn to them; and they were in sore straits. 16 Then the Lord raised up judges, who saved them out of the power of those who plundered them. 17 And yet they did not listen to their judges; for they played the harlot after other gods and bowed down to them; they soon turned aside from the way in which their fathers had walked, who had obeyed the commandments of the Lord, and they did not do so. 18 Whenever the Lord raised up judges for them, the Lord was with the judge, and he saved them from the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the Lord was moved to pity by their groaning because of those who afflicted and oppressed them. 19 But whenever the judge died, they turned back and behaved worse than their fathers, going after other gods, serving them and bowing down to them; they did not drop any of their practices or their stubborn ways. 20 So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel; and he said, "Because this people have transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not obeyed my voice, 21 I will not henceforth drive out before them any of the nations that Joshua left when he died, 22 that by them I may test Israel, whether they will take care to walk in the way of the Lord as their fathers did, or not." 23 So the Lord left those nations, not driving them out at once, and he did not give them into the power of Joshua.

THE GENERALI FOUNDATION CZE WILL BE THE TITLE PARTNER OF THIS YEAR'S INTERNATIONAL YOUTH FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT FOR TEAMS AGED UNDER
JWA Prague |
The organisers of the international football tournament for top U19 youth teams from Central & Eastern Europe (CEE) that takes place in Prague each year, have announced today that the Generali Foundation CZE ("Generali"), the non-profit organisation of Generali Pojistovna a.s. which supports socially beneficial projects, will once again be the title partner of the event. The tournament begins on Wednesday, 23rdJuly and runs for one week until the Grand Final, which takes place on Wednesday, 30th July.
This is the fourth year of the tournament, and the second time that it will be called the 'Generali CEE Cup'. The Chairman of the Organising Committee, Roberto De Blasio, is delighted that Generali will again be the title partner, saying:
"We formed such a good relationship in 2013 that it is a testament to last year's success that Generali will again be the title partner. Every year we aim to build on and improve the tournament, and this is only possible, of course, with a trulycommitted partner. We really feel that we have that with Generali."
Jiří Cívka, a board member of the Generali Foundation CZE, commented:
"The Generali CEE Cup fits into our long-term commitment to support sports projects that help young people realise their potential since sport is the foundation of a healthy lifestyle and footballers are role models for their peers. Equally important is the charity aspect of the tournament, which supports UNICEF."
This year's tournament will follow the format of previous years, with 12 teams playing against each other in four different groups, and the winners of each group playing off to eventually bring two teams to the Grand Final at the end of the week. A full programme of activities is being planned to support the Grand Final, which this year will be played in the Bohemians 1905 legendary Ďolíček stadium. The Grand Final will, once again, be televised live on the Eurosport sports channel.
Last year's winning team was the Hungarian youth team, Győri ETO FC, who beat Slavia Praha in a final that many felt was as good, if not better, than any Premiere league match. One of the players last year, Jiri Sodomka from Slavia Praha, was voted the 'Generali CEE Cup Player of the Tournament', and now plays for Slavia Praha. Says De Blasio:
"The Generali CEE Cup is all about giving young players from this region the chance to show off their skills to a wider audience than would normally see them and, hopefully, giving them the opportunity to move into football's big leagues."
The tournament trophy that is awarded to the winners of the GENERALI CEE Cup is again being produced by the up-and-coming Italian sculptor, Christian Loretti, who will also produce the awards for the second and third teams, as well the prizes for the Diadora Best Player, Best Scorer and the "Best Goal Keeper". This prize is given in memory of Franco Mancini, the unforgotten goalkeeper of the early nineties, who died prematurely in March 2012 while he was part of the backroom staff of his mentor, Zdeněk Zeman.
As always, some of the proceeds from the tournament will be donated to UNICEF's "Schools for Africa" project, as the organisers are keen for the young players to understand early on how important it is for them to support others who are less fortunate. This is also something that Generali is keen to support, both through its own foundation and through its ongoing support of the GENERALI CEE Cup.

101 N. 10th Street, Noblesville, Indiana 46060 (317) 774-5740
Under the glow of the marquee of the friendly confines, you'll find Grindstone Public House, your bustling neighborhood restaurant sharing a space serving American fare and classic cocktails to help you unwind after the grind. Menu items are dishes we know and love. Teamwork is who we are. Our love for Downtown Noblesville is reflected in all we do, all on one of the most historic cross streets in Noblesville. Together we welcome you to our hospitable hangout with savvy all day service, warm, welcoming personalities and food that reminds us of home.
Historic Location
The historic Castor building where our restaurant is located was constructed in 1891 by William H. Castor a local farmer and entrepreneur.
The first tenant in this location was The Clark Supply House. Starting as a supplier of stoves, ranges and plumbing supplies, over time it sold windmills, pipe, fire brick and incandescent lamps.
On the third floor of the building was the Cherokee Lodge of the Independent Order of Red Men. This fraternal order was founded in 1904 traced its beginnings back to Dec. 16, 1773 and Samuel Adams and the founding of the Sons of Liberty. The Sons of Liberty are believed to be the group that organized the Boston Tea Party.
Grindstone Public House honors the legacy of the building and history of downtown noblesville. With a robust whiskey selection, craft beers, and unique wine selection, we hope you enjoy!
Clancy's
Clancy's, Inc. began in Noblesville, Indiana in 1965. Carl Fogelsong, our founder, had a vision for fast food restaurants in small Midwestern towns. Serving a basic menu of quality burgers, drinks, and "the best French fries in town," Carl grew Clancy's Hamburgers into a 31 unit regional chain covering four states.
In 1982, the first Grindstone Charley's opened in Noblesville Indiana, to rave reviews. Carl's son, Perry joined the Corporate Team that year after graduating from Indiana University.
A third generation of the Fogelsong family joined the corporate team in 2010. Blake Fogelsong, Perry's son joined Clancy's Inc. after graduating from Ball State University. The addition of Blake to the corporate team has been instrumental in the development of two new projects, Grindstone Public House, and a new concept Grindstone on the Monon in Westfield, Indiana.
Understanding the distinction between service and hospitality has been at the foundation of our success. Service is the technical delivery of a product. Hospitality is how the delivery of that product makes a recipient feel. Service is a monologue—we decide how we want to do things and set our own standards for service. Hospitality, on the other hand, is a dialogue. To be on a guest's side requires listening to that person with every sense, and following up with a thoughtful, gracious, appropriate response. It takes both great service and great hospitality to rise to the top.
The Historic Castor Building 1891
Developed by Clancy's Inc., the property at 101 N 10th Street once housed the Clark Supply House was given a new lease on life.
"A special thanks to TJ Keene and Loree Everette of Phanomen/design for the partnership and bringing this beautiful and historic building back with vigor in which Grindstone Public House calls home." – Clancy's Inc. President and CEO Perry Fogelsong
Grindstone Public House gives a nod to both the building's heritage and Downtown Noblesville by displaying a decorative mural of the GPH Logo. Designed by Lodge design and painted by Olson Paint Studios, the decorative mural graces a quarter side of the newly refurbished building.

ROME (Reuters) - German airline Lufthansa (LHAG.DE) has submitted an offer for parts of Alitalia [CAITLA.UL] and a plan to reshape Italy's ailing national carrier just days after agreeing to buy some of Air Berlin's assets.
Lufthansa's offer is not for the whole Italian airline, but only for parts of its network, meaning it may not find favor with Rome, which wants to sell Alitalia in one package and avoid a split of its aviation and ground service activities.
"The offer includes a concept for a newly structured Alitalia with a focused business model ("NewAlitalia"), which could develop long-term economic prospects," it said.

Launch of the Centre for Research on Play in Education, Development and Learning (PEDAL)
Today the University of Cambridge is launching a ground-breaking research institution to examine the role of playfulness in learning and development in young children.
The Centre for Research on Play in Education, Development and Learning (PEDAL) has been established with a £4 million donation from the LEGO Foundation, a Danish corporate foundation funded by LEGO whose aim is to use play to improve learning for children all over the world.
PEDAL acting director Dr David Whitebread said: "Play opportunities for children living in modern urban environments are increasingly curtailed, within their homes, communities and schooling. At the same time, play remains a relatively under-researched area within developmental science, with many fundamental questions still unanswered. Therefore, an invigorated research effort in this area will constitute a significant contribution to cultural understandings about the importance of play and the development, internationally, of high quality education, particularly in the area of early childhood. "
The launch will take place at 4pm this afternoon (22/10/2015). If you would like to watch the launch (either live or at a later date) it can be viewed via:
www.educ.cam.ac.uk/pedal/
We hope you will join us for this exciting event!

Within the scope of the "Improvement of International Competitiveness of Food Industry in Bursa" Ur-Ge Project, representatives of the food sector took part in the Anuga Food & Beverage 2017 Fair. BTSO Board Member Aytuğ Onur said that they are aiming to reflect the success of the industry in production to export.
BTSO aims to develop the business world of Bursa to globalize and improve its competitiveness. Within the Ur-Ge Project, food sector representatives from Bursa held important business meetings in Cologne, Germany. The BTSO members, which are the producers in various fields of the food industry, visited the Anuga Fair after the B2B meetings. Representatives of Bursa business world, who examined one of the world's biggest trade fairs in food sector Anuga Fair, witnessed new developments in the sector and signed cooperation agreements with global brands.
As part of the fair visit, Aytuğ Onur and Burhan Sayılgan also visited Bursa companies that opened stands at the Anuga Fair. They also met with the Consul General of Turkey, Hüseyin Emre Engin. 7,405 companies from 107 countries participated in the Anuga Fair. Turkey is the 5th country with 298 companies after Italy, Germany, Spain and China. About 15 firms from Bursa participated as exhibitors.

Q: Insert and Update commands after a LOOP statement I'm trying to create a stored procedure in MySql, which needs to proceed with further updates after a END LOOP tag, just like in the code below.
Somehow, the insert command after the the END LOOP tag is not getting executed, can someone tell my why? How do I go about solving this?
BEGIN
/**Constant variables*/
DECLARE constX  FLOAT DEFAULT 2.660;
DECLARE constMR FLOAT DEFAULT 3.268;

/**Variables for tbSell*/
DECLARE seID, prodID INTEGER DEFAULT 0;
DECLARE qttSell, xV FLOAT DEFAULT 0;
DECLARE previousQttSell, previousXV FLOAT DEFAULT NULL;
DECLARE sPrice, xAvgV, mRAvgV, xUclV, xLclV, mRUclV FLOAT DEFAULT 0;
DECLARE sDt DATE DEFAULT 0;

DECLARE crQttSell CURSOR FOR
    SELECT ts.`sellQuantity`
    FROM tb_sell ts
    WHERE ts.`productID` = 1;

/**Truncating temp tables*/
TRUNCATE tb_metrics;
TRUNCATE `tb_mr_temp_table`;

OPEN crQttSell;
get_QttSell: LOOP
    FETCH crQttSell INTO qttSell;
    INSERT INTO tb_metrics VALUES('', 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 555);
    SET previousQttSell = qttSell;
END LOOP get_QttSell;
CLOSE crQttSell;

INSERT INTO tb_metrics VALUES('', 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7);

END

A: You must detect an EOF condition after a fetch statement to avoid infinite loop:
  DECLARE done INT DEFAULT FALSE;
  DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET done = TRUE;
  ....
  ....
  get_QttSell: LOOP
    FETCH crQttSell INTO qttSell;
    IF done THEN
      LEAVE get_QttSell;
    END IF;
    INSERT INTO tb_metrics VALUES('', 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 555);
    SET previousQttSell = qttSell;

The way we browse the internet has changed drastically since last year. This ever evolving look of the internet is thanks to the millions of designers out there designing every website, new page, trend and the entire internet. Right from back ground colour and scheme to text font and style, every little detail is put to scrutiny by an avid designer. With the growing number of devices we use today, it is imperative that websites are responsive and interactive at every level making a designer's job even more tedious. So if you are looking for basic idea of what I am talking about, here is a great infographic to get your up to beat.

Is this Reece's Icarus moment?
The plumbing supplies business is taking advantage of its excellent reputation to make a significant acquisition in the 'Sun Belt' of the United States.

Business Risk
Share Price Risk
The once-conservative Reece has not only thrown caution to the wind, it has leapt off a cliff with barely the flimsiest of parachutes. This week the company announced it would buy Morsco Inc., a US distributor of plumbing supplies, water infrastructure and HVAC products.
It's far and away Reece's largest ever acquisition, with the $1.9bn purchase price comparing to the company's market capitalisation of $5.4bn.
There is a lot to like about Morsco, which has $2.3bn of sales. It's a similar business to Reece, although with a higher exposure to water infrastructure products, which account for about one-third of sales (see chart). Plumbing supplies account for most of the remainder.
Significant US acquisition
Makes Reece riskier
Participate in capital raising
Morsco is based solely in the southern states of the US – the so-called 'Sun Belt' – where population growth is higher. Its plumbing supplies business has 111 branches, with Texas and California accounting for two-thirds of the division's revenue. Geographic concentration is important in a wholesaling business as it allows for lower-cost distribution and means customers have a branch nearby.
Chip Hornsby, Morsco's chief executive since 2011, will stick around to run the show. Hornsby is the former chief executive of Wolseley plc (now Ferguson plc), the largest plumbing supplies business in the world. Reece sensibly intends to operate Morsco without too much interference.
But there are plenty of things to be worried about too. Reece's balance sheet will go from extremely conservative to fairly aggressive. Shareholders will contribute $600m in new equity – more on that shortly – but Reece will also take on almost $1.5bn of new debt. Reece's net debt to pro forma EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) of $505m will be 2.9 times, which isn't a conservative multiple.
Reece is also paying a high price for Morsco – 14.4 times EBITDA. While that's close to Reece's own trading multiple, the US plumbing supplies market is much more competitive. Morsco ranks as number four in the US, although it looks particularly strong in home state Texas.
The weaker competitive position is reflected in Morsco's EBITDA margin, which is 5.8% compared with Reece's 14.5% (which is arguably somewhat inflated by Australia's housing boom). For comparison, industry granddaddy Ferguson has US sales of more than $20bn and an EBITDA margin above 9.0%, which suggests that size makes a difference.
The US plumbing supplies market is still relatively fragmented, so Reece clearly intends for Morsco to continue the consolidation begun under Advent International, Morsco's former private equity owner. Under Advent's ownership, Morsco made 12 acquisitions since 2012 but we wonder whether Reece's balance sheet now makes 'bolt-on' acquisitions more difficult.
Entitlement issue
Ratio 1 for 11 (but can apply for more)
Entitlement price ($) 9.30
Able to sell on market? No
Entitlement offer opens 14 May
Entitlement offer closes 23 May
New shares begin trading 31 May
Reece does have options here. Its balance sheet is supported by around $400m of property, which could be sold and leased back if required. But we'd prefer that Reece simply raised a bit more capital. The institutional placement part of the current capital raising was 'upsized' by $40m yesterday following strong demand – at $10.20 a share – but that's not nearly enough.
You can see details of Reece's capital raising for retail shareholders in the table. It's a 1-for-11 non-renounceable entitlement issue at $9.30 so be sure to take up your entitlement if the share price remains above that level. Reece is allowing retail shareholders to apply for more than their entitlement to avoid dilution, and we recommend you apply for the maximum amount of additional shares (whilst ensuring your portfolio weighting doesn't exceed our suggested maximum of 5%). The timeframe for the capital raising is tight, so don't dilly-dally or you'll miss out.
While it's fair to say Australian companies don't have a brilliant track record when it comes to overseas acquisitions, if you're going to back any management team, it would be Reece's. With the Wilson family owning 74% of the stock and having demonstrated a laser-sharp focus on shareholder returns, it would be premature to panic.
We are, however, lifting our business risk rating from Low-Medium to Medium. We're also lifting our Buy and Sell prices from $8.00 and $12.00 to $9.50 and $15.00 respectively. Most of this reflects our assessed improvement in Reece's valuation prior to the Morsco acquisition.
Reece also announced 2018 profit guidance with the acquisition announcement. It looks like profit growth has slowed in the second half of 2018, consistent with an easing housing construction market. At today's share price of $12.30, up 14% following the acquisition, the stock is trading on a 2018 forecast price-earnings ratio of 27. With the Morsco acquisition due to complete in July 2018, earnings per share should rise by about 10% in 2019.
Reece remains a high-quality business although it's riskier than before the announcement. The stock is now up 82% since we upgraded it in Reece: Three reasons back in 2016. The company's value hasn't risen quite that fast, however, and we remain concerned about a weaker housing market. HOLD.

If the integrity of mainstream video game reviews was in a coffin and all but one nail had been driven home, the reviews for GTA IV was a big mash hammer that drove the last nail in, but bent it totally out of shape before smashing it home, making it all but impossible to pull it out.
Stick a fork in 'em.

Brock says
What is this conspiracy theory that you guys have going on? It's not like this is the first game to get multiple tens. If it got 9.8's across the board, would you be calling foul too?
And thanks for that picture. Once seen, you can't UNsee it.
*vomit*
@Brock – From my personal experience, this game is no where close to a 10. Not a 9.8, either. There are technical issues with the game that would knock "lesser" games' scores down to the basement. I don't know if there's a conspiracy or not, but these reviewers seemed to turn a blind eye to some glaring issues.
Jason O says
Same concern. The GTA series since III has had some glaring design flaws. I could realistically see something like Vice City getting near perfect scores because of what it accomplished, because of the improvements it made over III, and because it took the series in a more "Hollywood" direction.
After that it's been more of the same and the design problems that were evident in III and Vice City have still not been addressed? At what point does additional window dressing not cut it? Maybe you could score the game on its own without considering past history, but then you would also have to ignore its competition.
You're right, any other game would not be treated so well. Their credibility is sunk in my eyes.
Zack Hiwiller says
Not only does it have technical issues, but it fails to take an adventurous step in any direction. Everything I've done in the game so far I've done in another game. It's admirable how much content they stuffed in there and I AM enjoying it, but it isn't groundbreaking from a design-sense. (Technical sense, yes there is some very impressive stuff on that end).
I don't think the conspiracy is so much that GTAIV got a perfect score (for an obviously non-perfect game) but just what's behind the review process.
The conspiracy is in how the game (or games) are reviewed. It's almost like they popped the disk in played for an hour or two and called it genius.
Then there's the ethics behind the whole "exclusive reviews" thing. It's just too weird.
I'd also have to agree with Tony and Jason (and many others) that this is not a "perfect" game. I can think of a few other titles just on concept alone that should score higher and the major reviewers didn't.
Of course, my opinion has to be taken with a grain of salt because I have not played the game.
Also, what constitutes the game as perfect? Who's to say? In some ways review scores are ambiguous. I agree with something that Brock mentioned to me via chat. Percent scores make better sense because there is a frame of reference to a hundredth of a perfect score. I guess it explains why many big reviewers are being a little more ambiguous in their scoring.
A better thing would be to just write excellent, unique reviews and eliminate scores altogether. That takes guts and skill and we'll probably never see that.

It's the Hyacinth Bucket effect! A third of people change their voice when they speak on the phone
It's the Hyacinth Bucket effect! A third of people change their voice when they speak on the phone… and almost half of them are 'trying to sound more posh'
Nearly half of respondents admitted they are trying to sound more well-spoken
Approach akin to Hyacinth Bucket in BBC sitcom Keeping Up Appearances
Three in ten change their voice because they want to sound more intelligent
By Daily Mail Reporter
Published: 00:43 GMT, 9 December 2020 | Updated: 02:15 GMT, 9 December 2020
More than a third of people change their voice when they are on the phone, a survey suggests.
And nearly half of those admit they are trying to sound more well-spoken – like Hyacinth Bucket in 1990s BBC sitcom Keeping Up Appearances, who pronounced her surname Bouquet.
Three in ten change their voice because they want to sound more intelligent, and 10 per cent want to sound more fun, according to the nationwide survey of 2,000 people.
Nearly one in ten said they change their voice without realising it, but are made aware by others.
More than a third of people change their voice when they are on the phone, a survey suggests. And nearly half of those admit they are trying to sound more well-spoken – like Hyacinth Bucket in 1990s BBC sitcom Keeping Up Appearances, who pronounced her surname Bouquet
Clients, work colleagues and strangers are among the people that those surveyed often change the way they speak for.
About a fifth said they automatically alter their voice when answering a number that they do not recognise, while just under a fifth said their regional accent comes through more strongly on the phone.
People in Scotland are particularly likely to change their voice, the research suggests.
Nearly half of people surveyed in Aberdeen said they do so when they are on the phone.
Sheffield residents, meanwhile, were the least likely to change their voice, with six in ten saying they do not do this – although a fifth said that when they do, it is to sound more local.
Norwich residents feel the most pressure to sound intelligent, the survey suggests, with 52 per cent who change their voice admitting that is their intention.
About a fifth of people in London who change their voice do this to sound more fun, and a quarter of people in the North East and North West of England said they do not realise they change their voice when on the phone but they are told this by other people.
When it comes to voices people aspire to sound like, Sir David Attenborough was voted the favourite celebrity voice, closely followed by Absolutely Fabulous star Joanna Lumley and then Luther actor Idris Elba.
The survey was conducted by the bank Santander UK.

The Satanic Temple: "Satanic Abortions" Are Protected by Religious Liberty Laws
quote [ Now we wait for a legal challenge. ]
Hail Satan! Full article in extended plus a link to the official TST announcment
Official statement: https://announcement.thesatanictemple.com/rrr-campaign41280784
Patheos article:
Several years ago, The Satanic Temple argued in court that one of their members in Missouri didn't need to abide by the state's 72-hour waiting period for abortions because it violated her belief that "one's body is inviolable, subject to one's own will alone." (That lawsuit was ultimately unsuccessful in part because she was no longer pregnant when the judge issued a ruling.)
They tried a similar tactic in 2019, this time with an anonymous plaintiff whose own pregnancy timeline wouldn't be an issue, but that didn't work either. The courts said that whatever obstacles there were to obtaining an abortion in Missouri, women could still theoretically get them and this plaintiff wasn't singled out because she was a Satanist. So a lawsuit based on religious discrimination was a no-go.
That's why, today, The Satanic Temple is laying the groundwork for future battles over abortion. They're announcing that all first trimester abortions must be "exempt from state regulations that hinder access" to the procedure because such hurdles violate two of their Seven Fundamental Tenets regarding bodily autonomy and adherence to best scientific practices.
(I give them bonus points for this part:)
They're basically using the Hobby Lobby Supreme Court decision — which an evangelical business owner used to prevent insurance providers from covering his employees' birth control — to defend a woman's right to choose.
How does that work? The Satanists say the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) prohibits the government from interfering with someone's religious practices (unless there's a really good reason for it). Most states have their own versions of this law as well. By saying abortions in the first trimester are a religious ritual for their members, any states that have their own RFRA laws — and most anti-abortion states have them — would theoretically have to show why their (medically unnecessary) restrictions should override the Satanists' religious freedom.
TST's reproductive rights spokesperson, Jane Essex, notes, "Many states have laws that interfere with our members' ability to practice their religious beliefs. No Christian would accept a mandatory waiting period before they can partake in Communion. No Christian would tolerate a law that insists state counseling is necessary before someone can be baptized. Our members are justly entitled to religious liberty in order to practice our rituals as well."
Today's announcement isn't just a press release, either. The Satanic Temple is fully laying out what its abortion rituals look like. Here, for example, is what members would have to do before surgical abortions:
Prior to receiving any anesthetic or sedation, look at your reflection to be reminded of your personhood and your responsibility to yourself. Focus on your intent. Take deep breaths, and make yourself comfortable. When you are ready, say the Third Tenet and Fifth Tenet aloud. You may now undergo the surgery. After the surgery is completed and any anesthetic has worn off, return to your reflection and recite your personal affirmation. Feel doubts dissipating and your confidence growing as you have just undertaken a decision that affirms your autonomy and free will. The religious abortion ritual is now complete.
The Satanists also offer members a template letter they can give officials if they want to take advantage of the religious exemption. This part is just… *chef's kiss*:
Because the abortive act is inextricably linked to the religious rite, a burden on the act is a burden on the rite. State law implements some or all of the following generally-applicable burdens on the abortive act, each of which substantially interfere with my religious beliefs and practices:
Mandatory waiting periods.
Requirements that practitioners withhold certain medical information. Compulsory counseling prior to an abortion.
Required reading materials.
Medically unnecessary sonograms.
Mandatory listening to the fetal heartbeat.
Burial or cremation of fetal remains.
Based on the foregoing, I demand a religious exemption to these generally- applicable restrictions.
I asked Caroline Mala Corbin, a Professor of Law at the University of Miami who has written extensively on church/state separation, what she thought about this strategy. She told me it should work in theory since RFRA laws are meant to protect all religions and not just the popular ones. But she added that there may be two problems.
1) A patient would have to establish that the abortion ritual is a sincere religious practice and a court may reject that claim.
After all, the member of the Satanic Temple is arguing that an abortion is akin to a sacrament. A hostile court may also conclude that beliefs about autonomy and science, while sincere, are secular rather than religious. Though it would be wading into murky territory by declaring that sincere beliefs are not religious, as courts are generally wary of drawing a line between religious beliefs and nonreligious beliefs.
2) A patient would have to show that the abortion restrictions substantially burden her religious practice.
While after Hobby Lobby courts are supposed to be deferential to religious objectors claims of substantial burden, I can imagine that courts may argue otherwise: e.g. waiting a day or two does not prevent the abortion.
At the same time, if a court is willing to accept an abortion as a religious ritual akin to communion, then requiring people to wait several days before they are allowed to receive it should amount to a substantial burden. Of course, the Satanic Temple was careful to make clear that the abortion ritual was more than the abortion itself, strengthening its claim that the state's regulations interfered with the whole ritual.
So what happens now? We wait for a challenge. If a Satanist seeks an abortion and is prevented from doing so in any meaningful way, The Satanic Temple could file a lawsuit saying the state is violating their member's religious freedom.
Then we wait for the fireworks.

Divers tend to blame themselves or their camera when a picture does not turn out the way it was intended. This can kill motivation and thus result in leaving the camera at home for the next dive. "Wrong" pictures are not necessarily to be blamed on the diver or the camera. It can simply be a picture that was falling outside the range of possibilities the specific camera has to offer. In many cases there are simple tricks that allow you to take the picture you want, but also cases in which your camera is simply not suitable to take the shot you wish to take. A combination of tricks and information on limitations will keep you motivated to engage in underwater imaging.
To start using a digital camera requires some preparation with respect to getting to know the possibilities and limitations of the camera used. This course was designed to guide that process.
Every camera is a "specialist". Depending on the technical features with respect to the lens, the available shutter speeds, aperture and strobe settings, the camera can be used to take some types of pictures, but others will not work or become a matter of luck. Following the techniques you will learn throughout the course will help you to choose the camera that fulfills your wishes and to use it within the limitations it has, which will allow for many nice underwater images and only few disappointments.
This course requires a diver certification and a minimum age of 10. The course with its sessions on land, a pool session and a dive in open water can be completed in two days. You start your course by downloading the book and reading it. If you prefer to read your book on paper, then ask your instructor. The price for the paper version of this book is €9.90. If you cannot find a SCUBA C&P instructor in your area, then please contact us via info@scuba-courses.com.
We wish you many nice pictures!

How the abortion affect the emotional state of women?
multimedia/
According to statistics, in Russia annually more than 500 thousand abortions
If you turn on the TV or go on YouTube, you can see a huge amount of gear, where people argue about whether women have abortions or not? Artificial opponents believe that crucial to have an abortion women have killed their child. Supporters of abortion, in turn, does not see anything wrong with that, because some people simply can't afford to have a child because of their age or lack of sufficient money for his education. Since this topic is very relevant today, scientists from around the world are studying not only physical consequences of abortion, but also how women feel after abortion. That's how you think, whether voluntary waiver of the child's birth cause women depression?
In 2019, the specialist on reproductive health Julie Steinberg and her colleagues decided to find out whether abortion increases the risk of suicide in women who took the decision to abandon the child. For 17 years they were tracking the emotional state over 500 women and found that the adoption of this decision does not affect the risk of suicidal thoughts. According to the newspaper the among to abandon child women were cases of suicide, however, they were associated with the presence of psychological problems before pregnancy.
How women feel about abortion?
Despite these results, a large part of society still continues to think that after the abortion, every woman sooner or later will feel sincere remorse about the decision. To test this hypothesis decided by scientists from the us state of California within the framework of scientific work called Turnaway.
According to a scientific journal under the title , the study looked at data about the emotional state 667 women from 30 regions of the United States. To clarify their relationship to experienced abortion scientists simply carried out a survey among them a week after the abortion and after two years of making difficult decisions.
an Abortion is done when up to 20 weeks of gestation or when fetal weight up to 400 grams
To the surprise of researchers, a week after abortion 51% of women surveyed had experienced only positive emotions and haven't regretted the decision. About 20% of women regarded their decision is neutral and only 17% of the study participants began to regret it. Some of them even refused to continue participation in the study.
you know,
Even more surprising was the fact that over time women began with even greater certainty that the abortion was not done in vain. Five years after surgery, 84% of women said that they feel great relief and have almost forgotten about the abortion, though at first they felt like doing something wrong. Perhaps the emergence of such feelings was provoked censure from society.

The study's Authors were quick to clarify that in no case did not want to hurt the feelings of those who regrets the abortion and took hard this period of my life. However, they also noted that the interviewees could feel the therapeutic effect of participation in scientific work, because when dealing with scientists, they could see the wisdom of his act and not worry about it.

Uwe Schmidt is one of the most prolific contemporary electronic musicians of our era, with over 200 releases produced under a dizzying array of aliases. Perhaps his most well known and celebrated project is Señor Coconut, of "Cha cha cha" Kraftwerk cover fame. We've heard many dozens of Uwe's releases and consider more than a few of them to be Bunker classics that are in constant rotation at both our house and on our dancefloor.
When we first heard his compilation of tunes organized as a satirical history of acid house released under the Atom™ moniker - "Acid Evolution 1988-2003", we started hounding Uwe about performing this material live at The Bunker. We eventually got him to perform an improvised live hardware set with Tobias, then were lucky enough to have him perform his A/V set for us, and most recently were treated to a solo techno set of the Ground Loop material just last year.
We asked Uwe to flesh out a few of the clips he'd put online of Ground Loop material with a view to releasing a record for The Bunker and two days later these two monsters landed in our inbox. Two brand new Atom™ dancefloor acid explosions that stand alongside the best of his work. Enjoy!

Q: journald forwarding to syslog seems to be lagged I'm seeing an issue on a Ubuntu 16.04 box where the copying/forwarding of journal messages to /var/log/syslog seems to be delayed:
theuser@host:/etc/systemd$ sudo journalctl -n 1 && sudo tail -n 1 /var/log/syslog

-- Logs begin at Wed 2018-12-12 09:52:03 CST, end at Fri 2018-12-14 08:41:20 CST. --

Dec 14 08:41:20 host sudo[26760]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by theuser(uid=0)
Dec 14 07:40:12 host sudo[2574]: *log message snipped*

I've confirmed that /etc/systemd/journald.conf has not set ForwardToSyslog=no (the default value of yes is presumably being used).
The problem appears sporadically, and usually seems to be resolved by rebooting, but I was hoping to maybe get some suggestions on what I should check into / what might be causing this so I could poke around on a system currently experiencing the issue.
One other piece of probably-relevant information is that I'm using rsyslog to forward logs from /var/log/syslog to an external log aggregation service.
Any tips on what I should check into?


Vancouver, B.C. –Tuesday, November 18, 2008 – Canada Zinc Metals Corp. (TSX Venture: CZX, Frankfurt: A0F7E1) ("Canada Zinc"or the "Company") is pleased to report on the recently completed exploration activities carried out at the 'North Lead Anomaly', a high priority target on its 100% owned Akie property located in northeastern British Columbia, approximately 260 kilometres north-northwest of the town of Mackenzie.
The 'North Lead Anomaly' is a large (200m x 1000m), open-ended, lead-in-soil (70 to 624 ppm lead) anomaly located approximately 2.3 kilometers north of the nearest Cardiac Creek deposit drill hole to intersect significant mineralization (A-07-46: 2.12 metres grading 8.58% zinc and 1.86% lead). In 1996, the area was tested with one drill hole by Inmet Mining Corporation, encountering Gunsteel formation containing 45 meters of pyrite-bearing (5% to 12%), siliceous shale, followed by a 0.8 metere wide interval of massive sulphide mineralization consisting of pyrite, sphalerite and galena. Veins and stringers of similar material were noted in the footwall Road River silty carbonates. The massive sulphide horizon yielded grades of 11.60% zinc and 9.05% lead. The stratigraphic position of this mineralization appears to be identical to that of the Cardiac Creek deposit.
The mineralization present in the Inmet hole is closely associated with an underlying debris flow in which the carbonate fragments and matrix are replaced by pyrite, +/- sphalerite, +/- galena. A similar situation is observed in both of the 2008 holes, where zinc and lead values, which increase updip, are locally as high as 9.82% and 0.17%, respectively. Of particular interest is the presence of finely banded, pinkish sphalerite in the matrix of the second (updip) 2008 hole. These characteristics are also noted in several holes located at the northern end of the Cardiac Creek deposit. Such debris flows may reflect the presence of an underlying synsedimentary fault zone, a feature that is interpreted as a conduit for metal-bearing hydrothermal fluids.
Bedded pyrite, identical to that present in the hanging wall to the Cardiac Creek deposit and the 1996 Inmet hole, occurs in both of 2008 drill holes. These beds are highly anomalous in zinc, with values ranging from 0.1% to 0.65%, with grade generally increasing updip.
Drill hole A-08-63 (the updip hole) encountered alteration, consisting of silicification and associated pyrite, that extends some 30 metres into the Road River footwall rocks before dissipating into localized patches. Locally, within this alteration, the rock is brecciated by sphalerite rich sulphide stringers that have returned zinc values of up to 8.48%. Alteration of this type is also noted in the higher grade parts of the Cardiac Creek deposit, particularly in the northwestern portion.
Features of the type noted above are commonly associated with vent complexes and underlying feeder zones of proximal facies sedimentary exhalative (SEDEX) zinc-lead deposits worldwide and suggest that a similar environment may exist in the northern portion of the Akie property. This premise is supported by the fact that lead/lead+zinc ratios in soil samples collected on the property exhibit higher values in this area. The importance of recognizing the vent zone in this type of deposit is that the zinc+lead grade is commonly highest at the transition between it and the laterally extensive bedded (or distal) ore facies.
"Our drilling of the North Lead Anomaly target this year has been extremely encouraging as the results verify that the area is a likely source of additional hydrothermal fluid flow. We have always believed that additional discoveries on trend from the Cardiac Creek deposit exist and these very positive results, over 2 kilometres distant from the Cardiac Creek deposit, confirm the significant potential. This area of the Akie property remains a high priority exploration target," stated Jim Mustard, President of Canada Zinc Metals.
