Mirza Kuchik Khan  () (common alternative spellings  Kouchek, Koochek, Kuchak, Kuchek, Kouchak, Koochak, Kuçek)  (October 12, 1880 – December 2, 1921) was an Iranian twentieth-century revolutionary leader and the president of the Persian Socialist Soviet Republic. He was the founder of a revolutionary movement based in the forests of Gilan in northern Iran that became known as the Nehzat-e Jangal (The Jungle Movement). This uprising started in 1914 and remained active against internal and foreign enemies until 1921 when the movement was completely abandoned after the demise of Mirza Kuchak Khan.

Early life

Mirza Kuchak Khan was born Yunes, son of Mirza "Bozorg" (the Persian equivalent of "Sr"), and was thus nicknamed Mirza "Kuchak" (the Persian equivalent of "Jr"), in the city of Rasht in northern Iran in 1880. His father was a Gilani merchant.

Political Activities
In June 1908 the parliament was shut down during a coup d'état ordered by the new monarch, Mohammad Ali Shah. The Russian Cossack Brigade under the command of Colonel Liakhov serving the Shah bombarded the parliament and arrested pro-democracy leaders, activists, journalists, and members of Parliament. Uprisings all over the country followed in particular in Tabriz, Ardabil and Rasht. During the Tabriz uprising Kuchak Khan tried to join Sattar Khan & Haj Baba Khan-e- Ardabili's forces, but was unable to actively participate due to an illness. He was injured in the Constitutionalist war, and had to travel to Baku and Tbilisi for medical attention.

After going through a period of renewed and bloody dictatorship nicknamed the Short Dictatorship (or Lesser Autocracy), in July 1909 the national revolutionary forces from Gilan and central Iran (Bakhtiari tribes) were united to attack and conquer the capital Tehran. Mirza Kuchak Khan was one of the lower rank commanders of the force that invaded the capital from North (under the command of Sepahdar Aazam Mohammad Vali Khan Tonekaboni).

Jangal movement

Unfortunately, given the shortcomings of the advanced social thinkers and activists of the time on one hand and the stronger establishment of the old autocracy on the other hand, again the same privileged class and their political representatives took control of the new regime. The freedom fighters were not satisfied and in fact were disarmed, in some cases using force. Meanwhile, the direct and indirect manipulation of the country's internal politics by Tsarist Russians and the British increased the social unrest within Iran.

It was during such tumultuous period that Mirza Kuchak Khan, in collaboration with the Society of Islamic Union, started his uprising in the northern forests (Southern Caspian). Initially, the headquarters of the movement was in Kasma. Mirza Kuchak Khan's return to Rasht was not easy since he had been expelled from Gilan by the Russian consulate for five years. His cause seems to have been a mixture of that of the newly emerging national bourgeoisie and downtrodden peasants and therefore gained momentum soon after it started. The Jangal forces (locally referred to as  'Jangalis'  i.e., 'People of the Jungle' in Persian) defeated the local governmental and Russian troops which added to their reputation as potential saviors of the ideas of the constitutional revolution.

On June 12, 1918 Manjil was the site of a battle between the Jangali troops and the joint British and White Russian forces. The latter force (led by General Dunsterville and Colonel Lazar Bicherakhov) although formally just trying to organize the return of Russian soldiers back home, in reality was planning to pass through Manjil as the only passage to the Caspian in order to reach Baku and fight against the newly formed Baku commune (led by Stepan Shahumian). General Dunsterville's private diaries and notes, including those kept during his command of the Dunsterforce Mission to North Persia and Baku, are transcribed from the original by General Dunsterville's great granddaughter, and are co-located on the Great War Primary Documents Archive. Mirza Koochek Khan's troops were defeated in this war because of the use of artillery, armored car and airplanes by the joint forces. Mirza's field commander was a German officer (Major Von Pashen) who had joined the Jangal movement after being released by them from the British prison in Rasht.

The Jangal movement was further boosted and gained gravity after the victory of the Bolsheviks in Russia. In May 1920 the Soviet Navy led by Fyodor Raskolnikov and accompanied by Grigoriy Ordzhonikidze entered the Caspian port of Anzali. This mission was declared to be only in pursue of the Russian vessels and ammunition taken to Anzali by the White Russian counter-revolutionary general Denikin, who had been given asylum by British forces in Anzali.

Socialist Republic of Gilan

Mirza Kuchak Khan agreed to cooperate with the Soviet revolutionaries on some conditions including the announcement of the Socialist Republic of Gilan (also known as The Red Republic of the Jungle) under his leadership and lack of any direct intervention by the Soviets in the internal affairs of the republic. However, soon disagreements arose between Mirza and his group of advisors on one side and the Soviets and the Communist Party of Persia (evolved from the Baku-based Edalat Party). Mirza's efforts to resolve the bloody disputes by sending a petition through a delegate of two of his men to Lenin did not result in a resolution. By 1921 and particularly after the agreement achieved between the Soviet Union and Britain the Soviets decided not to further support the Socialist Republic of Gilan and as a result the government forces led by colonel Reza Khan (the future Reza Shah) overran the dispersed forces of the Jungle Republic. There is however, a different point of view that believes Mirza Kuchak Khan and his inner circles were not at the advantage to deal with and to accomplish major radical social changes such as abandoning feudalism in Gilan which would have served the republic tremendously paving the way for its final victory.

Saadollah Darvish is appointed as the Chair of the Revolutionary Council (Commissar) of the forces missioned to Mazandaran Province, to promote the Red Iranian Revolution in that province. The letter is signed by Mirza Kuchak Khan (his usual signature Kuchek-e Jangali i.e., Kuchek of the Jungle) and other members of the Revolutionary Council of The Republic of Iran, 1920. The tone and the terminology used in the letter shows the revolutionary fervor of the time and, contrary to the suggestion of conservatism on Mirza's side by some historians, his devotion to the ideas of socialism.

Mirza's death

Mirza and his companion named Gaouk, a Russian-German revolutionary adventurer, left alone in Talesh mountains around "Masal", both died of frostbite. His body was decapitated by a local landlord and his head was displayed in Rasht to establish the government's new hegemony over revolution and revolutionary ideas. They buried his body in Soleymandarab in Rasht and sent his severed head to Cossack commander Reza Khan (who later became the first Pahlavi King of Iran) in Tehran. During the Second World War and after the departure of Reza Shah for exile, friends of Mirza Kuchak brought his head back from Tehran and buried it in his tomb. The tomb of Mirza kuchak in Rasht was reconstructed after the Islamic revolution.

Historical analysis
Historians have tried to analyze the factors that contributed to the demise of the Jangal Movement. Some of the main studies including those by Gregory Yeghikian and Ebrahim Fakhrayi (minister of Culture in Mirza's Cabinet of the Red Republic) suggest a role for both extremist actions taken by the Communist (Edalat) Party that provoked opposing religious sentiment among the public, and Mirza Koochak Khan's religious and at times somewhat conservative views on collaboration with the Communist Party as possible factors.

It has been suggested also that the change of policy on the Soviet side regarding pursuing global revolution (as advocated by Trotsky) versus establishing and protecting the Soviet Union was the main reason for them to withdraw support from the Gilan republic. The second option got more support and therefore Soviets signed a treaty with British in London (1921) which necessitated withdrawing from Northern Iran. Correspondence between Theodore Rothstein, the Soviet ambassador in Tehran, and Mirza Koochak Khan supports this view (Ebrahim Fakhrayi). As part of his peace making efforts, Rothstein had also sent a message to the Soviet officers among Ehsanollah Khan's one thousand strong force that had made its way towards Qazvin, not to obey his orders and as a result that campaign was defeated however, this view has been challenged by other historians emphasizing Kuchak Khan's limited view of revolution given his socio-economic and ideological position.

The Best News Of The Week Is That The Black Ryder Have A New Album Coming Out
Posted in Uncategorized with tags Aimee Nash, Scott Van Ryper, the black ryder, The Door Behind The Door, The Morning After Girls on October 4, 2014 by johnbuckley100
After something like a four-year wait, we were delighted with the news that a new song by The Black Ryder was posted on Stereogum.
Back in early 2010, Tulip Frenzy brought forth upon this land an early look at The Black Ryder's debut, Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride, which we'd damn near had to swim to Australia to find. Our motivation for diving in the Pacific, credit card in hand, was simple: Aimee Nash and Scott Van Ryper had been core members of The Morning After Girls, whose early recordings were an almost perfect blend of both the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols, and the songs that first were released by what then was known, in e.e. cummings lowercase lettering, as the black ryder, were simply awesome.
There are different ways one can measure a great record, but the two that matter are whether it has the potential to change the world, and whether years later you still play it regularly. Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride might not have changed the world, but from the full spectrum of Tulip Frenzy's 2010 Top Ten List (c), this album today gets called to earbud duty every bit as much as that year's winner, Darker My Love's Alive As You Are. There is the squall of guitars laying a pea-soup shroud of noise fog on Aimee Mann's ethereal vocals, the drama of the songwriting revealing the hidden truth that these guys likely were what made the early Morning After Girls records so beguiling. This was shoegaze music that got into the bones, that sunk into the marrow, that once in the head could not be eradicated. Because of our regular playing of it, we have become intimately aware of the topography of our desert boots, the fray of our shoelaces. We play it all the time.
So the fact that The Black Ryder will, in early 2015, release The Door Behind The Door is reason for celebration, reason for optimism, the best news on the planet in an otherwise pretty dreary week.
Widowspeak's "Almanac" Is A Compendium Of Facts About An Emerging Great Band
Posted in Music with tags "Almanac", the black ryder, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Morning After Girls, Widowspeak on January 23, 2013 by johnbuckley100
When Widowspeak's eponymous first album was released in 2011, you'd have been forgiven for thinking it was that Mazzy Star reunion we've all been waiting for. Robert Earl Thomas was less adventurous than Dave Roback, maybe, though certainly his equal in sonic tastefulness, and singer Molly Hamilton sounded a lot like Hope Sandoval, minus the otherworldliness. Now they are back with Almanac, and have surer footing, and a more aggressive pace, and we feel confident that the path they are on will take them far.
They make good partners, Thomas and Hamilton, as he shapes the sound with his lead guitar while she holds down the rhythm guitar parts forging the melody with artful phrasing. Her voice stretches the canvas on which the songs are written across a fairly narrow frame. Most times a baby doll husk, occasionally it loses all substance and recedes entirely into pretty fog, like Chet Baker playing trumpet on a slow song. Widowspeak's limitations, such as there are, emanate from whether one can live on the sustenance provided entirely by vocal meringue, and as we've just today heard about a restaurant in Tokyo that serves customers meals containing actual dirt, we have found ourselves nodding, seeking just a little grit, and wondering whether Widowspeak would be more satisfying listened to in longer increments if they emulated that approach.
Pareles used a Velvet Underground reference in his recent nice write up of Almanac, and while a stopped clock is occasionally right, you won't be surprised that we beg to differ, that we think of Widowspeak less in the context of the VU than in the fourth-degree separation that comes from a young American band actually sounding more like the black ryder's mutation of a Morning After Girls homage to the Brian Jonestown Massacre, who actually possessed the direct link to that VU sound. Good company, though, right? More than sounding like Mazzy Star, better than sounding like one more acolyte of the Velvet Underground, Widowspeak reminds us of that magical moment we first heard the black ryder's Aimee Nash singing with the Morning After Girls, though others will think of Miranda Lee Richards fronting the BJM.
For his part, Robert Earl Thomas is a canny lead guitarist who sounds more delicate on Almanac than he did live last November when Widowspeak opened for Woods at that amazing show at the Red Palace. When he plays slide, he sounds like David Byrne on "The Big Country," which of course was an homage to Phil Manzanera playing "Prairie Rose." All good lineage, all good music, a band with a future that links to the past — the best kind — and an album we will be listening to, over and over, until they mercifully deliver the next one.
The Black Ryder's "Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride"
Posted in Music with tags Aimee Nash, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Buy The Ticket Take The Ride, the black ryder, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Morning After Girls on February 24, 2010 by johnbuckley100
Pedigree counts more at events sponsored by The Westminster Kennel Club than in modern day rock'n'roll, but well before the release of The Black Ryder's superb first album, it was clear this was a well-bred band. At least Aimee Nash was a member of the Morning After Girls V. 1.0, (was her partner Scott Von Ryper as well?) and if an adjunct of class is whom you hang out with, The Black Ryder's got an A-list social network — the Brian Jonestown Massacre, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Black Angels.
More than a year ago, "Burn and Fade" showed up on their MySpace page, with BRMC's Peter Hayes sharing vocal duties, and it immediately placed TBR on the matrix. If the bottom axis is a band's relative immersion in the Velvet Underground, and the right axis is where they fit on the continuum between, say, the Stones upward toward the gauzy reaches of Mazzy Star and Galaxie 500, just that first song showed The Black Ryder scoring high in the upper right hand corner.
Frustratingly for us Yanks with a hankering for Aussie bands — we veterans of the long wait for The Morning After Girls' second album (sans Ms. Nash) — Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride came out in Australia in November, got rave reviews, but as of this writing, no American release date. Tulip Frenzy went into emergency acquisition mode, checked our Antipodal contacts, and through extraordinary measures (Amazon, credit card, paying up for the Import), are pleased to give this debut report for the American cognoscenti.
The Black Ryder are the real deal, and if Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride had found its ways to these shores in 2009, it would certainly have nestled near Assemble Head In Sunburst Sound's When Sweet Sleep Returned high atop the Tulip Frenzy Top 10 List. (It wouldn't have knocked Sonic Youth outta the top slot, for those geezers gripped it with gnarled paws.)
In the keiretsu connecting the BJM and the Dandys and the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, they're already supplying guitar strings and guitarists (BJM's Rick Maymi, fer example) to The Black Ryder. Unfortunately, the production checklist didn't include making sure the drums snapped, but they methodically went through every element relating to the guitars. I think my favorite song so far is the throbbing "What's Forsaken," but honestly, hear any of these songs in a club and you'll reach for your Shazam app.
Look, I thought the early Morning After Girls recordings were some of the best sounds that came out of that miserable decade we've just escaped from. I would be prone to enjoy an album featuring someone from that lineup. This is so much better: a lovely, mid-tempo mashup of the Dig! bands that never strains. It fits the tempo of life between 7:00 and 10:00 AM, and then again after 9:00 PM. Does that properly place it? Music to listen to in an urban apartment with rain slapping the streets, while tea is made. (Yeah, that kind of tea, with cream and sugar.) Now if we can only get them to buy a ticket on a Quantas flight over to these parts.
the black ryder's "Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride" Out In October
Posted in Music with tags the black ryder, The Morning After Girls, Tulip Frenzy on July 21, 2009 by johnbuckley100
The Morning After Girls' progeny the black ryder (lower case, like ee cummings) sent out an email this week announcing a first album out this October entitled By The Ticket, Take The Ride. Importantly, they also have posted a song from it on their MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/theblackryder). All we can say is Wow. "Burn and Ride" sounds like the glorious offspring of a marriage between Spacemen 3 and Luna, with Mazzy Star doing the officiating.
If, following Aimee Nash's departure from The MAG, they went on to be a little too polished for their original fans, Ms. Nash gives us a reminder of what's missing.
The Morning After Girls "Alone" Is A Pretty Rock Classic
Posted in Music with tags The Morning After Girls, Tulip Frenzy on July 14, 2009 by johnbuckley100
The thing I liked so much about The Morning After Girls' first album, which had the rather utilitarian name of The Prelude EPs, 1 & 2, was the way it could be both raw and delicate at the same time. Here was an Aussie band firmly in thrall to the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols, and all their progenitors and spore. But that was a long time ago, as Sacha Lucachenko and Martin B. Sleeman shed and gained new band mates, moved, more or less permanently, to New York, and over the course of the last few years, methodically kept the flame alive.
We're glad they did, because Alone is a beautiful bit of artisanal crafting, bespoke tailoring on a classic last. There's good news and bad news here. The good news is that they write oft-times brilliant songs — I've been grokking on "Who Is They" for months, and the title track is as great a bit of mid-90's Britpop as anything Noel Gallagher would have produced after a three-day binge. I hear echos of the Stone Roses, the Charlatans UK, Luna, maybe even Spiritualized: good company. The bad news is that some of the rawness has been sandpapered smooth. Sacha and Martin sing very pretty harmonies, and one doesn't often complain about good singing, but in this case it sometimes sounds pretty for the sake of it.
When they want to, they still can rock — "Death Processions," for example, packs a wallop. The show I saw in January at the Mercury Lounge was ear-splitting and occasionally thrilling. And they have the classicist's memory of how bands like the Beatles and the Stones really stuck in your mind — it wasn't just the hooks, the chorus, the solos, it was those tantalizing outros, making you hark your ear toward the speaker as the song fades away. Oasis knew this from the start, but not many other bands do, nor do they have producers who understand the vaudevillian's mantra of always leave them wanting something more.
It's been a long time coming, a long strip tease, as some of these songs have for months been streamable on their web site. This is a band that, with the proper management and a little luck, could be huge. Based on the pleasures they offer, they deserve to be huge. I just hope they don't forget where they come from. I don't mean Australia, I mean raw and thrilling. Bands too pretty leave me cold.

"the general public, which could serve as the group's mission statement: big, sawing guitars, gauzy synths and searching vocals making for a song that's hammering and hooky all at once." – rolling stone

"something that harnesses the blood/guts of a traditional rock band facing the monolith of technology with desire and trepidation, taking a wary step in and plunging headlong into a seemingly limitless black hole, is, well…that's a sound that's harder to get than might initially appear to be the case,and its valuable when found." – la weekly
"the morning after girls played the viper room on thursday night as if they were hellbent on being the next psych-rock contenders, and they might be. the new york-based quintet fashioned a glowing wall of sound and decorated it with colorful licks and cool harmonies; think primal scream, or a harder-edged verve, or the dandy warhols if they hadn't drunk their own kool-aid." – kevin bronson, buzzbands

The Morning After Girls At The Mercury Lounge 1/27/09
Posted in Music with tags The Morning After Girls, Tulip Frenzy on January 28, 2009 by johnbuckley100
The Morning After Girls are ready for prime time, ready for their close up, with a live set that takes the best from their new material — "Who Is They" finished the set — and the best of the old. This is a powerfully constructed band, with tight vocal harmonies woven like a sash between Sasha Lucashenko and Martin B. Sleeman, who share guitar duties.
Long ago, the story goes, novelist Scott Turow mentioned to his law firm partners that he would soon have a thriller out, and his partners asked if it was going to be big. He was confident enough – and knew his publisher's budget – to say, "It's going to billboard-on-the-back-of-the-bus big." So goes the suspicion about what the Morning After Girls could be. They could be Oasis big. They're also going to delight critics, most of the time. Think of the Stone Roses, at least for the vocals. And they split the difference between the louche '60s guitar sound of the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the tight hook-laden pop careerism of the early Dandy Warhols. You know they were torn over who to root for when they saw Dig!
The problem with the Mercury Lounge as a showcase is they got about two seconds to set up, and the sound's bad to begin with. And this is an ambitious band whose guitar lines are precise, who use pedals and phase-shifting atmospherics, and whose harmonies need to jell. Too often it sounded like one of the guitars was just a little out of tune, or at least stuck in the maw. Oh, but when they rolled through "Shadows Evolve," and got to "Chasing Us Under" it all worked. The vocals were on, the guitar lines snaked over and around each other. "Chasing Us Under" was worthy of Dean Wareham and Sean Eden, maybe even Lloyd and Verlaine. For a band built on melody and guitar dynamics, they put up a big ruckus.
The new members of the band play tight. Can't wait, for their sake and ours, for The Morning After Girls to play a set with clean sound, after a sound check. A very good New York debut under less than ideal conditions.

Outdoor workers can be exposed to various species, such as snakes with venomous bites, insects that sting and toxic plants, which can result in a visit to the emergency department after only a moment of physical contact. Exposure may cause an allergic reaction that is mildly uncomfortable or debilitating pain requiring immediate medical attention.The specific types of hazards vary depending on the nature of the outdoor work being performed, geographic region, season and duration of the job. However, safety officials and plant and animal experts advise people who work outdoors to take appropriate precautions when on the job.
Rattlesnakes, copperheads, coral snakes and cottonmouths (also known as water moccasins) are venomous snake species found throughout the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Venomous snakes can live near rocky areas, forests, swamps and bodies of water, as well as woody or sandy marsh areas in the southern parts of the country. Rattlesnakes can be found near logs, boulders and mountains, prairies, and beaches. Anyone performing outdoor work in these environments should receive training on hazards involving snakes.
Rattlesnakes make up the largest population of venomous snakes in the country, according to CDC. Contrary to what people may expect, "they don't always rattle. You can't rely on their signal that they are there, so you have to [look around] before you go into an area; you have to do a lot of house cleaning to check if a rattlesnake is there," said Todd Wilson, who worked as a structures superintendent during a construction project on the Olivenhain Dam, located near Escondido, CA, where rattlesnakes are present.
Before starting any work on a jobsite, employers should survey the area to look for evidence of snakes, said Dr. Edward J. Wozniak, regional public health veterinarian for the Texas Department of State Health Services. He said supervisors should gather any shed snake skin to help identify which snake species may be present. "All it takes is a few segments of it," he said. "With rattlesnakes, if you just have a few inches of it, you can identify it." Wozniak also suggested inviting an expert to the site to show employees snakes that are native to the area.
"One of the first things the employer needs to do is instruct their workers not to handle them," said Brenda Jacklitsch, a biologist at NIOSH, adding that if a worker sees a snake, he or she should let the snake move along, alert co-workers that a snake is in the area and warn them to stay away. "Even if it's not a venomous snake, a snake bite could carry a lot of bacteria and it could be infectious," Jacklitsch said.
When removing debris, pick up the items with a tool, such as a rake or hoe, and always pull the object toward the body. "Use tools to pick things up under edges you can't see under. If you pick up a flat piece of debris on the ground, pick it up on the far side," Wozniak said. That way, if a worker unexpectedly uncovers a snake, the object will be a barrier between the two and will help protect the worker's legs, he noted.
In the event of a snake bite, medical professionals need to identify the species of the snake. "If you can at least be able to identify it, then you're at a point that you can select an anti-toxin," Wozniak said. Instruct workers to use their cell phone's camera function to take pictures of snakes, he said.
If a worker is bitten by a snake, keep the victim still and calm to slow down the spread of venom, and lay or sit the person down with the bite at or below the level of the heart, Wozniak said. The victim should be given medical attention as soon as possible. Administer first aid if the victim cannot be taken to the emergency department immediately. If the bite is on a limb, wrap the bite with a loose-fitting clean, dry dressing and immobilize the limb, if possible, he said. "Mark the advancing edge of the swelling with a marker at 15- to 20-minute intervals. This will help the treating physician with determining the bite severity," Wozniak said.
Poison ivy, poison oak, poison sumac, stinging nettle and poison hemlock are among the plants that can cause skin irritation lasting a week or more, according to the U.S. Forest Service. Irritation can be caused by brushing against a plant or from secondary contact with contaminated clothing.
Poison ivy is a plant that looks different throughout the seasons. Young leaves have a reddish tint, old vines are very hairy, and in the late summer and fall it will have green to white berries on the vines, according to USFS. "Prevention is your best protection because if you can identify [poison ivy] you won't get into it," said Wendy Cass, botanist at the Shenandoah National Park in Luray, VA, adding that poison ivy grows along trails and buildings, on roadsides, and up trees.
Workers should wear long-sleeved shirts, pants, hats and gloves when performing outdoor work near toxic plants, said Jim Miller, emeritus research ecologist of invasive plants for USFS. In addition, Miller recommends wearing eye and face protection, such as a facemask or goggles, as irritation can occur if workers are exposed to dust and pollen from certain plants.
"Poison ivy can remain on a surface for weeks, maybe months. It can definitely hang on to your equipment for a long, long time," Cass said. "It's best to treat whatever has been in contact with poison ivy as if it has been contaminated." Cass advises workers to wash their hands and equipment as often as possible. "I think it's important just to warn your employees it's sneaky; if just a tiny piece of poison ivy or a leaf goes into your glove and rolls around all day, you're going to get exposed," she said.
If exposed to a poisonous plant, a worker should immediately rinse his or her skin with rubbing alcohol, specific plant washes or degreasing soap (such as dishwashing soap) – and use lots of water, CDC advises. "You want to scrub under your nails, and once you think you're clean, you can use things like calamine lotion and other things that might help with the itching," Jacklitsch said, adding that antihistamines may help a person deal with inflammation and swelling, but should not be used while operating machinery.
Bees, wasps and other stinging insects are found throughout the United States. These insects will sting if they are disturbed as they go about their activities, especially while foraging for food, according to the University of California, Davis. Exposure to a stinging insect can cause a severe allergic reaction.
"If you're going to be in an area where there are bees or wasps or hornets, [it is important] to constantly keep your eyes open," Wozniak said, adding that workers should watch for a pattern of movement – for example, if they see multiple bees or wasps going to or from a specific area. "If you start seeing some of these things, that's probably an indication that a wasp or a bee [colony] is going to be there," he said.
Workers who are stung can experience a dangerous drop in blood pressure, and fluid can build up in the lungs, causing shock. Workers who are allergic should carry an epinephrine injection, also known as an epi pen, at all times. Employees who think they may be allergic should go to their doctor for testing, UC Davis advised.
An insect sting can be particularly dangerous, especially if it occurs on the neck or mouth, because swelling can cause a person to suffocate, UC Davis warned. The main concern for workers is open bottles and cans and trash, said Michael Rust, professor of entomology at the University of California, Riverside. Workers who eat outside should use caps for bottles and cover all food items with a lid to prevent attracting insects, he said.
If stinging insects, particularly wasps, discover accessible food, they may hunt long after that food source is gone, according to UC Riverside. If an employer intensively traps an area, the number of insects will be reduced, but make sure to set traps about 100 feet away from eating areas or other areas that need to be protected, Rust said, warning that certain traps are meant to attract yellow jackets and may cause more harm if placed too close to an area with food.
Employers who want to remove a nest or hive should take necessary precautions to protect against an attack from an angry bee or wasp colony. "Typically, when you're doing that kind of nest treatment, it's probably a good idea to have a bee suit on, before you do any kind of a treatment," Rust said, adding that professional help is best in many circumstances when removing hives and nests.
If a worker is stung by an insect, the area must be cleaned with soap and water, and the stinger should be removed with gauze or by using a fingernail, according to CDC. Ice may be applied to reduce swelling, but scratching can cause increased swelling, itching and possible infection.
Ticks present another concern for outdoor workers. They can cause Lyme disease when they attach themselves to a host and feed for six to 13 days, according to Texas A&M University in College Station. Ticks may be found in tall grass areas, shrubs, brushy areas, river bottoms and woodlands. They are most active in the spring, summer and fall, but can be active for the entire year in warmer parts of the United States.
The Hoosier National Forest in Bedford, IN, recommends tying or taping pant legs tight around the ankle to prevent ticks from crawling inside, and tucking in shirts to make ticks easier to spot and remove. Workers also can wear light-colored clothing to make ticks easier to spot; clothing should be washed regularly to kill any remaining ticks.
Repellents containing permethrin work well at protecting against ticks, but workers should avoid applying it directly to the skin, according to Texas A&M. It should instead be applied to clothing. Repellents containing DEET will protect the exposed skin of a worker, but it will not stop ticks from crawling underneath clothing. When using either repellent, workers should read and follow all instructions on the packaging.
Workers may not notice a moving tick on their body or even feel a bite, so clothing must be checked regularly. According to CDC, tweezers should be used to remove attached ticks with a slow and steady pull away from the body. Twisting and jerking can cause the mouth parts of the tick to remain on the skin. If this occurs, use the tweezers to remove any remains. If a tick is removed from the skin, keeping the tick for a few weeks in a vial labeled with the date and location of the bite may be helpful to medical professionals. A worker who develops a rash or fever within several weeks of removing a tick needs to visit a doctor.

The legislative session began with hordes of teachers descending upon the State Capitol to oppose Governor Jindal's aggressive education reform package. The dust had barely settled after those two historic bills were passed, a new battle began brewing over the administration's efforts to reform the state's retirement system.
In different venues and fashions this month, Louisiana will celebrate or at least remember the 200th anniversary of our statehood. Louisiana has a colorful present, and there is a historic and sometimes checkered past. However, I wish to recall and share with you portions of Louisiana's history as it relates to our formation. The reason this is presented now is there are two significant dates surrounding this column: April 8 and April 30. The former is the date of approval of the law creating and recognizing Louisiana as the 18th state of the United States, the latter is the effective date of our statehood.
On March 22, a gala was held at Northern Louisiana Medical Center's cafeteria to honor the Northern Louisiana Medical Center Hospital Auxiliary for their 50 years of service. Six of the 95 founding members were there to celebrate this occasion.
The cafeteria was filled with the history of this group as friends, guests and staff looked through past scrapbooks, visited with one another and feasted on a wide array of heavy hors d'oeuvres.
Five scrapbooks were on display at the Gala, each one with its own history and covering five decades of service. The scrapbooks are such an important part of the history of the auxiliary that the group wanted to make sure they were preserved in the best possible way.

April 22 is Earth Day. Started in 1970 by Sen. Gaylord Nelson, Earth Day is designed to create awareness of the Earth's environment and to encourage conservation efforts.
If you and your family participate in Earth Day events, such as helping clean up a local park or taking materials to a recycling center, you know the benefits of doing your part to improve your surroundings. But are you doing everything you can to upgrade your environment for investing?
Question: I worry about somebody suing me and getting all that I have worked for over my lifetime. Are there trusts or other vehicles available to protect my assets in case I am sued?
Answer: Yes. And there is also a long line of very distressed individuals who thought they were signing up for an "asset protection trust" and got little more than an asset reduction swindle.
I'm not saying there aren't legal, moral and ethical strategies available to those trying to protect themselves from the loss of their assets due to lawsuit or other legal proceeding. There are.
The Northeast Delta Human Services Authority will conduct a community forum at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at the West Monroe Convention Center, located at 901 Ridge Ave. in West Monroe.
New Governing Board members will be introduced to the public, and the forum will ask for the community's input in the service delivery system to meet the needs of those served in local community-based programs and services relative to mental health, developmental disabilities and addictive disorders.
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Louisiana-Mississippi Associated Press Managing Editors announced on April 7 the winners of its annual writing, photo and digital contests for news stories, editorials, photos, graphics and headlines published during 2011 in Louisiana and Mississippi AP member newspapers.
BATON ROUGE — The Louisiana Ground Water Resources Commission recently fulfilled a directive made by state legislators in 2010 to provide a report by 2012 on the state's ground water and surface water to members of the House Natural Resources and Environment Committee and the Senate Natural Resources and Environmental Quality committees.
Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Secretary Scott Angelle, chairman of the state Ground Water Resources Commission, said that the report — being delivered in accordance with 2010's House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 1, authored by Rep. Jim Fannin — is not an ending, but a continuation of the state's efforts to manage its water resources.

The Biodiversity Crisis Happening Inside of You
March 17, 2015 | Margaret Leigh Sinrod
Bacteria in the human gut | Image credit: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
Many of us are troubled by stories of how the biodiversity crisis is changing the planet, but what about the biodiversity crisis raging on inside our guts? As habitat loss, pollution, and global warming drive the disappearance of species and in the worst cases, the collapse of entire ecosystems, on an infinitesimally smaller scale, a similar phenomenon is unfolding in our bodies or more technically, our microbiome — that is, the trillions of microbes living in and on each and every one of us. And the costs of losing this microbial diversity? Perhaps equally ruinous to our health.
"Global warming is what human activity is doing inadvertently to the macro-environment. Our missing microbes and loss of diversity are based on what we are doing inadvertently to our micro-environment," explains the director of the Human Microbiome Program at NYU, Dr. Martin Blaser, who sees a close relationship between the state of the human microbiome and the marked increase in diseases like asthma, food allergies, diabetes, obesity, and even autism.
The climb in these wide-ranging and often debilitating diseases certainly accounts for growing public interest, as well as a burgeoning probiotic industry that may be said to be literally feeding off of the former.
But what explains these apparently devastating changes to our microbiome? A number of scientists, including Blaser, point to poorer diets, cleaner living conditions, and the overuse of antibiotics in the Western world.
When speaking with NPR's Terry Gross, Blaser noted that farm animals have been given antibiotics for roughly 70 years, and perhaps equally troubling, here in the U.S. most children have ingested on average a startling four courses of antibiotics by their third birthday. As broad spectrum drugs, these antibiotics are indiscriminately killing off bacteria — both good and bad — at what Blaser considers a critical stage in the development of a child's microbiome.
While scientists agree that maintaining bacterial diversity is important, they are only beginning to understand the complexity of our microbial makeup. So, not unlike WoRMS, an initiative seeking to document the biodiversity of our oceans before certain species disappear, research programs are well underway to study the diversity of the human microbiome. Peoples living in remote parts of southern Africa and South America are of particular interest, as their microbiome offers a glimpse into how our own may have once looked prior to changes in diet and the introduction of modern medicine.
It would stand to reason that identifying which microbes are missing may be the secret to improving our health, and Dr. Blaser agrees. Blaser said on NPR, "I think that's going to be part of the future of medicine, that we're going to understand the science of the microbiome well enough so that we can look at a sample from a child and say this child is lacking such-and-such an organism…"
But until then, what can we do? When I suggest store-bought probiotics as a possible remedy, Dr. Blaser advises caution, explaining that "studies show that if you take a 'probiotic' today, by tomorrow, it no longer can be found in the body." He has described the business of probiotics, a largely unregulated industry, as the Wild West. And when we spoke, he clarified that "[n]early all the products are untested for their efficacy in controlled trials."
So, if store-bought probiotics aren't the answer, how can we restore the health of our microbiome? Well, so far the most effective proven alternative to health shop options likewise consists of probiotics, but its source may be far too off-putting even for the most desperate treatment seeker — its source being human excrement.
At this point, I imagine I've lost roughly half of our readership, but for those who can stomach it (pun intended), read on, as fecal microbiota transplantation — or FMT for short — is indeed being hailed as one of the latest and greatest medical innovations by the Cleveland Clinic. And for good reason. FMT has proven to be incredibly effective in combating C. diff, a dangerous infection which is often resistant to antibiotics. Quite remarkably, patients suffering from the infection may recover within a day of receiving treatment. In a controlled trial conducted at the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam, 13 of 16 patients felt better after a single fecal transplant. As they say, the proof is in the pudding — the last of my puns, I promise.
FMT is a fairly simple procedure, which involves taking a stool sample from a healthy individual and transplanting it into the colon of an afflicted one. In addition to treating C. diff, fecal transplants are being employed under clinical trials for irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's, and HIV. What makes FMT so effective, particularly in the case of C. diff, is that the new healthier bacteria "have little effective competition" and more easily take root, explains Dr. Blaser.
It is these seemingly miraculous recoveries, combined with relatively limited access to FMT, fueling a dangerous DIY movement in which sufferers are performing their own fecal transplants. And some are even taking instruction from popular how-to videos on YouTube. "[T]he procedure itself is simple enough to do yourself at home," explains Carolyn Edelstein, Director of Global Partnerships at OpenBiome, a nonprofit that supplies stool to hospitals, where FMT's are performed. But the process of finding a suitable donor is as tricky as the procedure is easy. "Only 4% of people pass our full clinical assessment," adds Edelstein.
"FMT is the transfer of biological materials — it is no safer than a blood transfusion, and probably less; this needs to be carefully controlled so serious mishaps do not occur," explains Dr. Blaser, echoing Edelstein's concern.
To address issues of safety and perhaps no less important, the stigma of employing human excrement for treatment, the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston has developed a pill that could eventually replace the need for transplants. And at OpenBiome, Edelstein says a synthetic bacteria could substitute stool altogether in the next few years. As for Blaser, he sees promise in both Western medicine and what modernity hasn't yet altered.
At the end of the day, a fisherman in the wilds of Borneo could hold the key to salvation for an IBS sufferer in Queens. As Blaser points out, it will be the peoples relatively untouched by this human biodiversity crisis who "may ultimately be the source of restoration for us."

Jarrod Parker may be up in the major leagues next season
By D.J. ShortNov 6, 2010, 12:28 PM EDT
In a chat with fans on MLB.com Thursday, new Diamondbacks GM Kevin Towers indicated that Jarrod Parker has a chance of starting next season with the big club.
More than likely, Jarrod will start the season in Double-A Mobile mainly because of the colder weather at the start of the season in Triple-A Reno. But he may surprise us and start the season in Phoenix if he has a strong Spring Training and appears healthy.
Towers clarified his comments to Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic on Friday.
"Certainly we're going to be cautious with him," Towers said, noting that they'll have to monitor his innings workload. "We're not going to do anything stupid here, but, to me, I don't want to have to make that decision until the end of March. I don't want to be making it in November."
Parker, who was the No. 9 overall pick in the 2007 First-Year Player Draft, missed the entire 2010 season recovering from Tommy John surgery. He was regarded as one of the top starting pitching prospects in the game prior to the surgery, posting a 3.31 ERA over 44 minor league starts, averaging 8.9 K/9 and 3.0 BB/9.
Towers recently told Tom Krasovic of AOL Fanhouse that the right-hander looks "awesome" and is reaching 95 mph on the radar gun. Parker doesn't even turn 22 until later this month, so there's still plenty of reason for optimism here.


For my entire childhood and adolescence I was very overweight. This resulted in having a very low self-esteem and just not being happy with myself. All of the diets, sports teams, and quick fixes I tried were to no avail and often had the opposite result. That's when my parents brought up the idea of training with J Bl'lI'lif8l'. This was the best decision I ever made! J ennifer's optimistic, fun attitude made me look forward to every session and helped give me the drive I needed to make a lifestyle change. Jennifer helped me make healthy dietary changes and adapt an active physical lifestyle. Not only did I obtain a slim new figure, losing fifty pounds, but I also grew stronger and gained a passion for exercise which I never thought possible. It has been six years since losing that weight and I have managed to keep it off as well as maintain a healthy lifestyle due to all of J em1ifer's help! Without J em1ifer's compassion, fun workouts, and bright personality, I would never have been able to lose the weight, keep it off, and feel better about myself.

Albert Hermann Vermeer (1911–1980), known as Al Vermeer, was an American cartoonist.  Vermeer created the comic strip Priscilla's Pop.

Early life
Al Vermeer was born in Alameda, California in 1911 to Dutch immigrant parents from Utrecht, Netherlands.

Career
While growing up in Oakland, Vermeer began his newspaper career as a sports writer. Eventually he moved to sports illustration work at the San Francisco News.

By 1945 he left the News to work with the Newspaper Enterprise Association and a year later his signature creation Priscilla's Pop was launched. Initially created as a Sunday, a daily version of Priscilla's Pop was soon added to the syndicate. Vermeer worked on the family strip for almost 30 years, before his retirement in 1976. The strip was inspired by Vermeer's own family. Vermeer was succeeded by cartoonist Ed Sullivan, who worked on Priscilla's Pop until the end of the comic strip's run in 1983.

Death
Al Vermeer died in 1980 in Humboldt, California.

Mumbai based FINO PAYMENTS BANK has entered into problems. RBI has directed them to stop opening new Accounts till the processes stipulated are duly followed. This relates to Deposits Limits which is restricted to rupees one lac.
Fino Payments Bank is in the process of making necessary product and technological changes and the bank has assured that its existing users will not be put to inconvenience and can undertake normal banking activities.
It is also learnt that RBI must have objected to the way in which customers were acquired by Paytm Payments Bank through business correspondents, who were only collecting original documents from customers and relying on the eKYC process of verifying the user through Aadhaar.
In the case of Paytm these BCs were agents of the payment company and the bank opening accounts through them amounted to using third party services for customer on-boarding.
Paytm uses OTP (one-time password) to take approval from the user who identifies themselves biometrically.
Further, the company insists on confirmation of consent via phone call and SMS, giving them the option to opt out if they do not want it.
Reserve Bank of India is understood to have raised questions on this process.
Also, it is learnt that the regulator has raised objections to the fact that both One 97 Communications, which owns Paytm, and Paytm Payments Bank were operating from the same office, whereas the licence for the bank was issued in the name of Vijay Shekhar Sharma, the founder of Paytm, who owns 51% in the payments bank.
The bank will continue to operate all existing wallet and savings accounts of its customers.
Those who have minimal KYC accounts can comply with full KYC compliance as well.
It is learnt that new customers cannot open minimal KYC wallets for the time being .
of the newly licensed entities. This has prompted the Regulator to go for an exhaustive audit of the banks and these steps initiated in that process.

A couple days ago, I published a rumor regarding a possible stock transaction and installation of Karch Kiraly into an executive role at the AVP.
Yesterday, I spoke with sources close to the AVP who sought to address this and other rumors, acknowledging some "nuggets of truth" to them but denying the general ideas.
Q: Is the AVP going bankrupt any time soon?
According to the source, AVP experiences ups and downs and is "no worse off now" than it has been following its resurrection from bankruptcy in 2001. The source pointed to the recent election of six new board members this year, explaining that no board member would sign on to ride what they thought was a sinking ship.
Q: Who are these insurance companies?
That's a combined 40.6% stake in AVP. Assuming these companies bought out all other shareholders except Armato - who owns 30.6% of AVP - they would own close to the rumored 70%. At today's stock price, that would be about a $2M purchase before any premiums.
The source, however, denied that these companies are looking to increase their stake.
Q: Will Leonard Armato remain as CEO?
The new board likes Armato and have no immediate plans to replace him, the source stated, though admitted they thought he "needs help."
Q: Will Karch Kiraly be stepping into any kind of executive role at AVP?
What I can only describe as an "informed source" stated that the door is essentially open to Karch to take on an executive role at AVP, though there is no clear indication if and when this will happen.
According to the same source, there was some talk amongst board members of bringing on Kiraly as an executive in light of his recent success with the US Open of Beach Volleyball, with the added bonus of neutralizing him as a potential competitor to the AVP.
Interestingly enough, Karch's agent, Steve Lindecke, sits on the AVP's board of directors. Lindecke and Kiraly created the US Open of Beach Volleyball with USA Volleyball, and Lindecke's company, The Elevation Group, produces the event.

[ Mohammed F Emran | Web Editor ] Lucky Whitehead scored two touchdowns in the Owl' 31-28 loss to UAB on Nov. 1, 2014.
After originally voting to disband the University of Alabama-Birmingham Blazers' football program at the end of last season, the Board of Trustees for the state university system voted earlier this month to reinstate football in 2016.
The local community rallied behind the team; $17.2 million in donations was raised by Birmingham business leaders and the UAB Football Foundation.
But the reinstatement leaves more questions than answers for all programs involved, including that of Florida Atlantic University.
The Owls have had a history with the Blazers since they first started playing Football Bowl Subdivision football in 2004. Both programs eventually found their way into Conference USA at separate times.
With a season before Blazer football can get off the ground again, we take a look at the past, present, and future effects of UAB on the Owls.
It was almost guaranteed that if UAB had completely gotten rid of football, Conference USA would have forced the school to leave for another conference.
"It's been clear that our folks aren't interested in changing our bylaws to permit members who don't have football," Conference USA commissioner Britton Banowsky said in an interview with AL.com on May 29.
The Blazers have been in Conference USA since 1995, originally moving into the conference as a non-football member. UAB is the longest lasting member of the conference, along with the University of Southern Mississippi (also joined in 1995). But without football, none of that would matter.
The Blazers would lose out on their football revenues, which was about $7.2 million. Not included in that picture are bowl-game winnings, which are doled out to all teams equally over a six-year span.
Basketball is the sport would have suffered the most. UAB has been one of the top teams in C-USA, with five NCAA tournament appearances. In the last NCAA Tournament, they got to the round of 32 as a 14-seed, after beating the three-seed Iowa State Cyclones.
UAB would lose out on larger tournament bonuses if they left, as they would have probably had to move to a smaller, non-football conference.
There is money to be made for a mid-major. According to Forbes, Conference USA made $10.5 million in 2014 from both bowl games and NCAA tournament, good for ninth in value out of all conferences.
Without that, the school would need more subsidies and loans to feed their $27 million athletic budget. That's not a favorable situation for UAB, as a university or an athletic program.
The only question that remains: Will it last? The Blazers have the money and momentum, but without fans, the reinstatement won't last long. The Board is not likely to be lenient to the Blazers after situation made them look like villains, and a failure with the second chance would not make anyone happy, and probably hurt the reputation of the Board of Trustees.
It's sink or swim time for the Blazers, who now need the city of Birmingham to put their physical support in the team, not just their wallets. Empty stadiums don't keep teams alive, and UAB will have to keep fighting Auburn Tigers and the Alabama Crimson Tide for support, too.
In football, the Owls have played six games against UAB in the history of the two programs, with the Owls winning four of the six by an average margin of 8.25 points.
The UNC-Charlotte 49ers will take UAB's spot, leaving the amount of teams in the east division at seven and the total number of teams at 13. While the numbers don't suffer, the conference schedule does. The 49ers have not played an FBS team in their history, so expect a rude awakening come fall.
A weaker conference only helps the Owls in the present, but a strong conference is necessary to get a better ranking and make more money from the bowl season.
In the bigger picture, UAB will still participate against FAU in all their sponsored sports and UAB football will need a few years before it is competitive again. But, things will get back to the status quo after that, and the conference will be stronger.
Uh, UAB is not yet fighting Alabama and Auburn for legitimacy. Before doing that, it would have to surpass Troy (and possibly event USA) for the No. 3 (and 4) spot in Alabama. Troy has USB beaten in just about every category, from fan support, to stadium and facilities, to wins over one another, to bowl appearances, to tradition and media coverage (Troy has a statewide radio network, while USB has a station or two).
Troy attendance in 2014 = around 16,700 fans per game.
USA attendance in 2014 = a bit over 17,000 after hosting Miss. State.
Troy Ticket sales for the entire athletic department in 2014 = $463,063 according to USA Today Sports Finance. That's the entire athletic department. That's difficult to say with a straight face. Troy is busy trying to not get passed by JSU for 5th in the state…though even JSU generated more revenue from ticket sales in 2014 and they're not even FBS.
Troy's attendance was one of the worst in the state just last year with under 17,000 fans per game.
Wow Bob Markey, that 48-10 beating UAB laid on Troy in 2014 really took a toll on your ego. That was with no facilities in front of a crowd larger than Troy had all season. And, thanks to C-USA media agreements, we had almost every game televised nationally or regionally. But hey, folks in Remlap & Pine Level could listen to Troy on the radio, so you got UAB beat there.
USB has no stadium and manufactured attendance figures. Troy has more fans in the stands bat each game than UAB and draws almost as many people in Birmingham than UAB does. Troy is clearly more popular in Alabama than UAB.
UAB has no stadium and manufactured attendance figures. Troy has more fans in the stands bat each game than UAB and draws almost as many people in Birmingham than UAB does. Troy is clearly more popular in Alabama than UAB.
Fiction. Complete and total fiction.
Now compare the numbers for both…google is your friend.
UAB and USA don't have their own stadiums, but they both beat Troy and reported better attendance than the Trojans in 2014.
Abilene Christian borrows a high school field to play its games, but managed to beat Troy as well.
Considering the long history of Troy and its football program, the juvenile football programs that are UAB and USA caught up to Troy incredibly fast. Regardless, best of luck to all of you in Pike County.
Just a couple of observations: UAB is a charter member of CUSA. That's how it "found its way in". Also, the UA Board of Trustees did not make the decision either way (at least not that they're willing to admit publicly). Third, it's not possible for them to look any worse.
I'm glad to see UAB back in the good graces of the conference. I see only bright days ahead. As a Marshall fan, I know directly what a great impact a football team can have in a community. The people of Birmingham ought to take a personal pride in having a college football team. It is a treasure and a gift for everyone to invest in. It belongs to all of you, make it something special.


I woke up and went downstairs to let the cats out. when I opened the door I was greeted by a very bright sun with a cool breeze, birds chirping, trees rustling; I took a deep breathe and thanked god for all the blessings he has given me! Man!! What a way to wake up!
That sounds sooooo lovely! There's nothing like a cool fresh breath. Isn't it wonderful that you can appreciate it now?
Your first smoke free Spring? You are six (seven, eight?) months quit now?


For first-time buyers or people who are looking for more affordable types of housing, London is the place to be in 2019. The ever-changing housing market in the capital is making things more accessible for everyone, including people on modest budgets. There is also the aspect that always keeps London ahead of the curve. And that's innovative ways of looking at old ideas. That's why co-living spaces and new developments are rising in popularity with Londoners.
If you're in a situation where you need more space, but you would prefer to avoid relocating, one option you should consider is adding an extra room to your home. Not only would an extra room create more living space in your house, but it could also increase the value of your property. You can approach this in two ways – one would be a conversion of an existing room. The second would be to build an extension. Adding an extra room to our home could be the ideal project for 2019 for you to take on, but you'll need assistance.
London always has been at the heart of the UK's business world, with many successful companies having a presence in the capital.No matter what industry you're looking to start a company in, you'll find the right partners in London. Due to the economic strength of the city, the domino effect it can have on all businesses is a positive one. If you do your research and play your cards right, you could be one of the many success stories.

Drivers warned of cycle ride road closures
Road users planning to travel through Surrey and London during the Prudential RideLondon cycling events this Sunday (August 10) are strongly advised to leave extra time and plan their journeys.
Wednesday, 6th August 2014, 11:13 am
Traffic queue
The route of RideLondon has been amended slightly in 2014 from previous years, requiring the closure of the entry slip roads of the A3 at Esher Common from 5am until approximately 3.30pm.
While no other closures are planned on the roads managed by the Highways Agency, many of the local roads in London and parts of Surrey will be closed while the cycling events take place. This means there may be more traffic on other roads, particularly the Highways Agency major roads such as the M25 and M4.
Steve Bush, Highways Agency Emergency Planner said: "We know from last year's event, that roads in parts of Surrey and London will either be closed or busy on the day of these cycling events, and that traffic that normally uses the local roads may end up using major routes such as the M25.
"We will be monitoring the traffic on our roads and working with the event organisers to help keep road users moving during the weekend. We are asking drivers to plan ahead of their journey in this area, whether it is your normal journey or going on holiday, and to allow extra time."
Garrett Emmerson, chief operating officer of Surface Transport at Transport for London, said: "The return of a bigger, better, Prudential RideLondon will once again show that London is the UK's capital city for cycling. Londoners made the most of the Tour de France's return to the capital earlier this month, and I'm sure that they'll make the most of the opportunity to see more elite riders out on our roads. Road closures are necessary to facilitate this great traffic-free event so we are asking everyone to plan their travel to ensure they can continue to get around and enjoy the events and all London has to offer."
Additional Highways Agency traffic officers and incident support units will be ready to deal with any incidents as quickly as possible and patrols will be positioned at key locations to ensure a swift response.
Drivers can use a range of Highways Agency services to check real-time traffic conditions - they include an iPhone app, mobile website and regular updates on our Twitter feed at @HAtraffic_seast.
Full details of the events, including route maps, can be found on
the event website.
In 2012, the Roads Minister asked the Highways Agency to investigate cycle provision hotspots on the Agency's road network. Working closely with Sustrans, the charity which works to encourage sustainable transport, and using information from The Times 'Cities Fit for Cycling' campaign, the Agency identified 100 potential locations. Feasibility studies were carried out on the 20 highest priority sites and, following liaison with the Cyclist's Touring Club and British Cycling, a list of 13 schemes across the country was drawn up to be delivered this year.
The Agency has also developed a new approach to developing cycling schemes which sees cycling improvements assessed separately from schemes for motorised vehicles. By separating out the cycling schemes the Agency guarantees that the highest priority locations will be considered for the construction of future cycling schemes.

is a fictional cardboard box robot character from Kiyohiko Azuma's manga series Yotsuba&!. In the  ADV Manga English translation of the manga the name Cardbo was used, but the name was restored to Danbo in the later released Yen Press English translation. In reality, Danbo is merely Miura Hasayaka, a friend of the protagonist Yotsuba's neighbor Ena, inside of a costume made of cardboard. Danbo was later picked up as an Internet meme, and inspired various electronic gadgets.

Origin

Miura created the costume out of cardboard boxes as a school project in volume 5 of the series. 5-year-old protagonist Yotsuba is convinced it's a real robot. Danbo was also seen in volume 10, when Yotsuba visits Miura's apartment in an apartment complex (Yotsuba thinks it's a castle), Yotsuba finds the head of the costume.

Appearances

Chapter 28: "Yotsuba & Cardbo"
Danbo first appeared in chapter 28 of the manga. It was created as a result of a challenge during summer vacation for elementary school students Ena and Miura. Although the person inside (Miura) is able to move upon wearing the costume, the young protagonist, Koiwai Yotsuba, found it by chance in the neighboring Ayase home while Miura was wearing the costume. Because Yotsuba believed it was a real robot, the two elementary school students joined forces to improvise a story in order to not destroy Yotsuba's dream. When Danbo claims to be going home, he leaves the Ayase home, with Miura still inside and Yotsuba still believing in him.

In the second semester, submitted to school as a summer project, Danbo receives a stamp from the teacher on the back of his head that reads "Very well done." After that, the Danbo costume is stored in Miura's room, left to decompose. In volume 10 Yotsuba unearths the head.

Chapter 69
Yotsuba and Ena visit Miura, where she finds the Danbo costume and is shocked to see that Danbo doesn't move. Miura tells her this is because he died, but Ena intervenes and refutes this and pushes Yotsuba out of the room under the pretense that she and Miura need to perform a resurrection ritual. Thus Miura again needs to wear the costume and afterwards Yotsuba, Ena and Danbo go playing in the park.

Merchandising

The Japanese company Kaiyodo has produced since late 2007 various Danbo action figures which became an Internet meme, and well-known over the Internet as a hero of many Photo shoots, one of the most famous is "365 Days of Danbo" by Arielle Nadel.

Flickr returns over 36,000 photos tagged "Danboard". On images found on the Internet, Danbo is often depicted as being composed of Amazon packaging boxes.

As of 2012 Danbo is being used as a Mascot for the Thai PBS show "Little Citizen".

Danbo has also inspired a line of electronic gadgets. The Japanese company Planex Communications has introduced a wireless LAN router and a USB hub. designed like Danbo's head, and Cheero has a line of Danbo batteries and USB cables.

Most surprisingly, the Yotsuba Danbo head is also used as packaging for condoms made by the Japanese brand Okamoto.
