Flint garage fixes: Remove or renovate2 min read
Parking will be impacted
Taylor Bicht, Staff Writer
Constructed in 1989, De Anza College's Flint Center parking garage has had minimal structural maintenance in the last 20 years and is in need of a major renovation.
The latest maintenance work was done in 2006, but since then the garage has fallen behind in earthquake safety standards that were changed in 2010. The goal of the renovation is to meet the updated safety guidelines and limit the renovation's impact on everyday college activity.
The current garage is a four-level structure containing 1,406 spaces available to staff members and students. The Flint Center parking structure provides 25 percent of the college's parking leaving students wondering how fast the process will be.
"Timing is always complex for college building processes," said Marisa Spatafore, De Anza director of marketing/communications and development. "After the board takes action, we want to proceed efficiently to improve safety."
Although the new design plan has been approved, the FHDA board of trustees is still deciding which plan to proceed with due to a limited budget of $926,530. The cheapest option presented to the board by De Anza employees on Oct. 6 was estimated at a little over $6.5 million.
The four options presented to the board included a recommendation to demolish the structure and create a flat parking lot in its place. This option would take the least amount of time and money, with a five-month duration costing $6.5 million.
"The college has carefully assessed the various options," said Spatafore "It is unlikely to preform well in a major earthquake making it necessary to find the best alternative."
The impacts of the recommended option include an immediate shortage of parking spaces and the permanent loss of almost 1,000 spaces. Campus disruption could also be an issue because the proposed renovation could take place during the spring and summer quarters of 2015.
The three other options presented would all require much more time and money for renovations. The different options shared the same goals in addressing safety, correcting compliance issues and fixing critical infrastructure.
When the time comes and the renovation does get approved, there will be ways to combat the loss of 975 spaces. Ideas presented to the board include exploring offsite parking and creating an incentive for students or staff who carpool leading to a smoother transition through the renovation process.

How Work Stress Hits Minorities and Less Educated Workers the Hardest
Researchers analyze workplace health to find inequalities.

Workplace stress can shave years off your life, according to a joint study by Stanford and Harvard researchers. But while these stressors, like job insecurity and high job demands, affect all American workers, they take the biggest toll on minorities and people with less education.
"The gains in life expectancy over the past 30 years have gone to a relatively small segment of the population, and there's another segment of the population — minorities — where it's gone in the other direction," says Jeffrey Pfeffer, an organizational behaviorist at Stanford Graduate School of Business.

Stressful jobs contribute to 120,000 deaths each year and cost U.S. businesses up to $190 billion in health care costs. These stressors particularly hurt minorities with low levels of education, who often work in unhealthy environments that can shorten lifespans. Researchers looked at 228 studies examining how 10 workplace stressors affect a person's health and used an algorithm to break down the results based on ethnicity.
Workplace stressors had the largest impact on non-Hispanic black men with less than 12 years of education, whose life expectancy decreased about 1.7 years. Non-Hispanic white women with more than 17 years of education were the least impacted, losing 0.3 years from their lives due to workplace stressors.
Pfeffer says he decided to study workplace stressors after skyrocketing health care costs kept showing up in the news. The U.S. government spends more on health care, per capita, than many other first-world countries. And while businesses were focused on coaxing individuals to practice healthier behaviors outside of the workplace, he adds, there was no research to show what kind of effect work had on an employee's health.
"We discovered that a significant fraction of the inequality in health outcomes can be attributed to the fact that the people with less education get sorted into jobs in which they are more likely to face harmful work exposures," Pfeffer says.
Workers with less education are more likely to take jobs with more workplace stress, such as those involving shift work, experiencing frequent layoffs, or demanding long hours. Occupations requiring more years of education also experience some of the same stressors, but those stressors are unlikely to have the same impact.
For example, an employee at a fast food chain has little job security and no job control. A banker, on the other hand, has a high level of control and more job stability. While both the fast food worker and the investment banker may have highly demanding jobs, says co-author and operations researcher Stefanos Zenios, the banker is far more secure than the fast food employee.
"Pay attention to where you work if you have a choice," Zenios adds. "It does make a difference. It can cut your life expectancy."
Long term, however, there needs to be a shift in how companies treat employees, Pfeffer says. Instead of focusing on changing individual behaviors, like exercising more and smoking less, employers should take a hard look at the kinds of workplaces they're providing for employees. Because Americans spend so much time at work, a high-stress environment could push employees toward unhealthy habits, which increase health care costs for the company.
To prevent adverse health effects among employees, both Zenios and Pfeffer recommend putting time and effort into making the workplace less stressful. Creating a social support network, for example, can help employees better handle stress. Giving a manager more autonomy over tasks can also reduce stress.
The gains in life expectancy over the past 30 years have gone to a relatively small segment of the population, and there's another segment of the population — minorities — where it's gone in the other direction.
Jeffrey Pfeffer
Although the study is sound, the algorithm does have its limitations, says Joel Goh, an operations researcher at Harvard University. Because the data isn't perfect, the researchers used averages. Instead of differentiating between a fast food employee who was a fry cook and an employee at the same restaurant who was a manager, the health effects were averaged out, he adds. "We knew the limitation of this going into it," Goh says, "[but] having something imperfect is better than having nothing at all."
The next step is to use this information to advocate for workers, and minority workers in particular, Zenios says. Any improvements within the workplace will reduce mortality — and benefit the bottom line.
"If companies are serious about controlling their health care costs, they need to work on the problems caused by these [adverse] exposures," Pfeffer adds.

Advocates Of A Streamlined Lifestyle Feel The Hate From Purists
April 22, 2016: 12:00 AM EST
Bloggers who write about their daily efforts to reduce household waste to zero are not immune from criticism. Purists of every stripe lambaste Kathryn Kellogg and other millennial women for not following the right kind of sustainable lifestyle, whether it be veganism or anti-toilet paperism. But despite all the hate mail, Kellogg and other followers of zero-waste gurus like Bea Johnson, author of "Zero Waste Home: The Ultimate Guide to Reducing Your Waste," persevere in their quest. Kellogg's trash for the past year – everything that was not recycled or composted – fits in an eight-ounce jar. That's a far cry from the average three pounds of trash produced by every American every day.

Food writer and presenter Nigella Lawson appears in Norwich this month, and Sarah Cassells wants to know what she thinks about Delia, dieting and doing different in Norfolk.
Theres a colourful corner of Norfolk that Nigella Lawson finds impossible to resist. Its not our wide open skies, the beauty of the Broads or a particular north Norfolk beach so often quoted by visiting celebrities, but a refreshingly different favourite space and one many of us will share.
The glamorous television cook is back in Norwich this November for a special evening at Delias Canary Catering and says she hopes to have time before the shops shut because I always find something that I havent seen in London.
Currently appearing on BBC2 with her 13-part series Nigella Kitchen, the domestic goddess is also on the look out for inspiration from Norfolks home cooks. Her evening at Delias will be an opportunity for guests to grill her about her new book Kitchen: Recipes from the Heart of the Home, but shes got a few questions of her own too.
I feel so passionately about what I do that I always say to people: Ask me anything, I dont mind if its about food or not, she says. Its really nice that it then becomes a bit of a conversation. People ask what to do with unusual ingredients and have questions about feeding children. Ive also had really interesting feedback about how people have tweaked a recipe of mine and what theyve done with leftovers. Im so nosy that if people say to me: I cooked that recipe of yours I always say: When and who for? Id also like to find out more about local produce and what the new movements are.
Nigella, who turned 50 this year, first visited Norfolk as a 13 year old, staying with a school friend near Diss. Because I was a child I cant remember what the village was called, but I adored itbecause there was lots of running about and being outside.
She also says shes fortunate to have moved in the same circles as Norfolks most famous culinary export. Ive always been a huge fan of Delia, she says.
Is it their shared attitude towards no-nonsense cooking thats drawn the two icons together? Shes much more accomplished than I am! says Nigella.
I think she has been and continues to be a fabulous force in food. Shes very experienced and yet she gives confidence to people who are perhaps more tentative, and thats a great gift.
Nigella suggests that their common ground is probably the assertion that they are both cooks, not chefs.
So often people say: Oh, Im not a chef! as though thats a limitation, but I think its a great liberation.
Its always been the theme of my books and is very empathic in Kitchen. So often people say: Oh, Im not a chef! as though thats a limitation, but I think its a great liberation. When cooking professionally you cant make the same lovely relaxed food, like slow-cooked food.
New book Kitchen is an evolution of her bestselling back catalogue, which includes How to be a Domestic Goddess, Nigella Bites, Feast, and Nigella Christmas, and her numerous accompanying television series. A former Sunday Times and Vogue journalist, her contagious enthusiasm for food, and her relaxed, engaging attitude has prompted thousands to get back into their kitchens.
Kitchen is Nigellas biggest book to date and rich in home-cooked recipes.
I love being in the kitchen; the room interests me as a sanctuary and a place where you warm your soul, she says. I wanted the illustrations not just to depict the food but also to convey mood. I just had fun really!
Among her personal favourites is her mothers roast chicken. I call it praised chicken because she would cook it in a pot on the hob and I didnt know whether to call it poached or braised. Ive probably cooked that more than anything in my life.
While Nigellas father, former Chancellor of the Exchequer Nigel Lawson, is perhaps her better-known parent, her mother, Vanessa Salmon, was the beautiful socialite and heiress to the Lyons Corner House empire, who died in 1985.
Nigella is married to art-collector Charles Saatchi and has two children Cosima, 16, and Bruno, 14, by her late husband John Diamond. The food from Kitchen is what she cooks for family at home and, occasionally, her children show interest. Their efforts, she says, are mainly pasta-based but her son is very into stir fries.
Shes also conscious of equipping them with a healthy attitude to food, which is partly a reaction to her own upbringing. My mother had a run of pretty bad eating disorders when I was in my teens and thats possibly one of the reasons Im not one of those women who makes a career out of dieting, because Ive seen what its like, she says. When I had my daughter I vowed that I would never say: You shouldnt be eating that. I feel as long as they eat healthily at mealtimes, a bit of everything is fine. Like any parent, you just have to hope you give them enough sense of self that they can use their own judgement.
Nutrition is also a consideration when Nigella composes her recipes, but shes loath to extract any ingredient on the grounds that its considered unhealthy by contemporary nutritionists. Like butter or cream, she says. I wouldnt have them every day, but as long as theres a lot of fruit and veg included as well, the odd spoonful of cream isnt going to do any harm. I feel if we learn to enjoy real food, were going to eat a lot more healthily than someone who is always afraid about whether what theyre eating is good or bad. As a parent I am very strict that my children have a proper breakfast and not sugary things at night and Ive always given them water, but those are my only rules.
Drinking lots of water it turns out is also one of Nigellas secrets for looking fab at 50. Compliment her and shes endearingly flustered. Its really odd that it sounds very old, but I think people look different now, she ponders. Maybe not being thin has its advantages in terms of lines on the face.
But what about any secret superfoods hidden in her recipes? Well, I believe in eating avocado to keep your hair glossy, and I also joke that when people say my meals include fat I say: Yes, but its moisturiser from within! Low fat diets make peoples skin very dry, parched and aged. Thats my excuse!
It could be so easy to be envious of such a gorgeous, successful woman, but one with a weakness for shopping, cream and butter is as irresistible as her famously indulgent cakes.
Kitchen: Recipes from the Heart of the Home by Nigella Lawson is available now for 26, published by Chatto & Windus.

"love, bites" a romantic drama written and directed by Ajay Govind. Ajay Govind earlier directed the 2014 crime/mystery Hindi feature length film 'After The Third Bell'.
"love, bites" is a short film, starring Harleen Sethi and Satyajeet Dubey in the lead was shot in Dehradun and line produced by the Dehradun-based production house Sisyphus Rocks Films. The film released on 2nd December, 2018 on the YouTube channel of Pocket Films.
The story revolves around the lives of Karthik played by Satyajeet Dubey and Meghna played by Harleen Sethi. While they seem comfortable flaunting their sexual chemistry, it's the memory of an old sexual encounter that seems to change things between the two. A hickey that becomes a display of their passionate togetherness becomes a marker of a forgotten past.
The film has two songs, composed by Nitin Krishna Menon who has composed songs for the 2018 film My Birthday Song. The songs are sung by Yashodhan Kadam and Pavithra Chari and Ajay Govind has penned the lyrics. Yashodhan Kadam was one of the finalists in the TV show Voice India.
While Satyajeet Dubey has starred in various Hindi films since his debut in Always Kabhi Kabhi, he currently plays Sanjay Dutt's son in his next film Prasthaanam. Apart from her work in advertising and various TV shows, Harleen Sethi plays Veer in the recently released Alt Balaji web series Broken But Beautiful.
The youtube release of the film is likely to be followed by a release on other platforms in the weeks to come.

Last week we "slid in safe" to Brevard from our South By Southwest circle tour, and in time for opening day of the Farmers Market.
The day started damp and gray but improved to sunshine by mid morning. The crowd came in waves from 8 o'clock on. Every time the lines tapered off at the food trucks, a new wave arrived. The Food Trucks had a great day - and so did I - very good Shrimp and Grits for breakfast!
A vibrant event in a vibrant town - good to be home again.

Despite streets still under water, Barry spared the Gulf Coast from a worse fate over the weekend than what forecasters thought might happen. The storm made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane on Saturday, July 13 near Intracoastal City, Louisiana. It quickly weakened into a tropical storm, but has been inundating parts of the South ever since. Even as a much weaker tropical depression today, July 15, Barry continues to dump heavy rain in parts of Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee and the lower Ohio Valley, prompting ongoing and new flooding concerns.
Fears of devastating storm surges and widespread major flooding didn't pan out, overall, and the biggest storm surges didn't happen in the highly populated areas like New Orleans. However, higher-than-expected surges of up to seven feet were reported in other areas. Also, most meteorologists didn't believe the bulk of Barry's moisture would stay over the Gulf of Mexico as long as it did. By the time it moved inland, the storm had weakened enough to keep rainfall totals down.
"Unlike Hurricane Harvey, which was an over-performer, this storm was a bit of an under-performer," said CNN meteorologist Dave Hennen. As for the flooding, Hennen said Barry was "a very strange hurricane…I think the strangest I have ever covered."
SONAR Critical Events: Weather alert for Tropical Depression Barry on June 15, 2019.
The flooding threat isn't over, however. The National Weather Service (NWS) is predicting Barry will drop another three to five inches of additional rain today in central Louisiana and southwestern Mississippi, with pockets of up to eight inches. The NWS has issued Flash Flood Watches across these areas.
"Dangerous flash flooding is likely across this area into this afternoon," the National Hurricane Center posted this morning.
Isolated tornadoes are also possible today from the Mid-South toward the lower Ohio Valley. These areas will be in the northeastern quadrant of the tropical system, the quadrant known for producing twisters. All the new rain means Barry will leave some places with totals of 15 to 20 inches of rain by the time the storm's remnants dissipate by mid-week.
Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards said at a press conference Sunday evening, July 14, that he was "extremely grateful that the forecasted rains and flooding did not materialize."
He said all state offices would be open today, except in a few parishes where the power is still out. He was thankful that the worst-case scenario didn't happen, and urged people not to let down their guards. "I want to remind everyone it's just July. Typically we see most activity in August and Sept," added Edwards.
New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell said many staples of city life would resume Monday, including public transportation, as well as recycling and trash collection services.
While not as destructive as feared, Barry did overwhelm some levees and cause widespread power outages. Several parishes, including Terrebonne, Lafourche, Jefferson and St. Mary, were flooded when water overtopped levees on Saturday. Also, because of Barry, officials had to close 16 roads and 24 bridges over the weekend, according to the Louisiana Department of Transportation. More than 153,000 customers across Louisiana had lost power at one point due to strong winds and downed trees on Sunday. Entergy Louisiana said it brought in crews from all over the country to help restore power.
The Louisiana coastal community of Isle de Jean Charles had already lost 98 percent of its land prior to the storm. After Barry made landfall on Saturday, some residents were stranded through Sunday as high flood water kept roads closed. In another island community, Iberia Parish, strong winds destroyed some buildings.
SONAR Tickers: ITRI.MSY, OTRI.MSY
Barry has caused only minor disruptions in supply chains and freight movement. with the damage turning out to be less than anticipated in the major population area around New Orleans. It's still too early to know the exact amount of damage, but the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) did waive hours of service regulations for any carriers hauling relief supplies to the affected areas.
There were no significant disruptions to contracted freight, as the storm hit over the weekend in a relatively low volume area. Many carriers made adjustments to their routing last week as FreightWaves' SONAR data indicated inbound tender rejections (ITRI.MSY) had increased from under 5 percent to more than 7 percent leading up to landfall. Outbound rejection rates (OTRI.MSY) fell from almost 12 percent to 8.5 percent leading up to the weekend as carriers took the opportunity to leave the area. Volumes did increase marginally over the past few days as shippers attempted to move freight out of the storm's path. The Outbound Tender Market Share index (OTMS.MSY) shows this, indicating an increase of 5.4 percent from July 11 to July 14.
Norfolk Southern railroad (NYSE: NSC) announced on July 14 that it would return to normal operations in the New Orleans area now that Barry has weakened. However, shipments to and through New Orleans will experience delays of 24 to 48 hours. The company continues to work with interline partners to detour interchange traffic over alternate gateways where possible to minimize the impact.
On July 10, Union Pacific railroad (NYSE: UNP) said the following in a customer announcement: "We are also monitoring Tropical Storm Barry developing in the Gulf of Mexico. Rail traffic interchanged with eastern carriers at New Orleans has been restricted, as flood gates were closed this afternoon. Traffic moving through New Orleans will be rerouted through alternative locations until the storm passes. Union Pacific has placed embargoes for the locations of New Orleans and Avondale due to the gate closures and potential flooding."
BNSF (NYSE: BRK.A) railroad officials said on June 11, "Due to the gate closures and flooding concerns, BNSF is holding all New Orleans-bound trains from moving into the area. The New Orleans Public Belt Railroad (NOPB), the switching railroad which services the Port of New Orleans and other local industries, has informed other rail carriers that it is no longer accepting inbound traffic. NOPB plans to resume operations to customer facilities once this storm passes and as soon as flood gates have reopened."
"Customers with shipments scheduled to move into the region should expect delays throughout the duration of this storm event. With the New Orleans interchange gateway likely closed through the weekend, our operations teams are working with other carriers to identify alternate gateways unaffected by this storm to minimize disruptions to interchange traffic as much as possible."

Q: Xml Generation from Google test does not show skipped test cases I am using google test framework for doing unit testing in c++. I have few test cases which i have disabled using DISABLED_ before test name and some tests are skipped using GTEST_SKIP(). This is working fine and i can see the tests being disabled and skipped in the teminal log. The problem is when i am generating the xml file from the test.
I am using the following command.
--gtest_output=xml:/data/TestReport.xml

The generated XML
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<testcase name="Test_3" status="run" result="completed" time="7.089" timestamp="1970-01-04T10:32:05" classname="UNITTEST">

I would like to point out that the tag testsuites which is a consolidation of all the testsuite does not have an attribute skipped.
The tag testsuite which is a consolidation of all the tests also does not have the attribute skipped. However, the test Test_1 does show the result as skipped. Is there any configuration to make the count of skipped appear.
Thank you.

A: It's probably a version issue. I'm gussing it was added here. The tag testsuite has skipped for me:

Q: How to setup NHibernate criteria to perform such query? How to setup NHibernate criteria to perform such query?
SELECT
    COUNT(1) AS CNT,
    l.CAMPAIGN_ID AS CAMPAIGN_ID,
    MAX(mc.NAME) AS CAMPAIGN_NAME
FROM
    SA_LEADS l
INNER JOIN
    SA_CAMPAIGNS mc
ON
    l.CAMPAIGN_ID = mc.ID
GROUP BY
    CAMPAIGN_SOURCED_ID
ORDER BY
    CNT DESC

I have mappings for both tables SA_LEADS and SA_CAMPAIGNS.

A: For me I would start with the element that I am trying to group by so I would start with a
base of campaign. I can't tell from your query but I would assume that your mappings have a way of moving from campaign to sales lead. I have assumed this is called "SALES_LEAD_LIST"
I also like to make a small class to receive the projection result so would create something to hold the result.
public class CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE
{
    public CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE() {}

    public int CP_ID {get; set;}
    public string CP_NAME {get; set;}
    public int CP_NO_OF_SALES_LEADS {get; set;}
}

Once you have something to put your projection result in you can create a standard criteria and just push it into you new class through a projection
    ICriteria criteria = base.Session.CreateCriteria(typeof(SA_CAMPAIGNS));

    criteria.CreateAlias("SALES_LEADS_LIST", "SA_LEADS", JoinType.InnerJoin);

    criteria.SetProjection(Projections.ProjectionList()

            .Add(Projections.Property("ID"), "CP_ID")
            .Add(Projections.Property("CAMPAIGN_NAME"), "CP_NAME")
            .Add(Projections.CountDistinct("SA_LEADS.ID"), "CP_NO_OF_SALES_LEADS")
            .Add(Projections.GroupProperty("ID"));
            .Add(Projections.GroupProperty("CAMPAIGN_NAME")));

    IList<CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE> cpProjections = criteria
                    .SetResultTransformer(
                       new AliasToBeanResultTransformer(typeof(CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE)))
                    .List<CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE>();

← Do Georgia's Child Obesity Ads Go Too Far?
Find a print ad that you find "ethically questionable". Use bullet points to talk through the ethical angles of the ad. Be sure to focus on the ad and not the product itself (i.e. not "drinking is bad and shouldn't be advertised," but "an ad like this promoting alcohol should not be targeted to minors"). Comments may address the target audience, content, placement, or other concerns of advertising.


Many of you are asking how to do your own pest control with non-toxic solutions, and believe it or not, there are many to choose from. I wrote a post previously talking about the most natural and non-deadly pest control form there is. This is done leaving no use of chemicals to pollute our Earth nor our bodies whatsoever. It was written in a humorous context but the general idea remains intact. I said I would do a review on some other products that you can try and so I've put together some information on a few of them that get my vote. These take very little effort on your part to maintain your ideals for greener and sustainable living. There are quite a large number of companies that sell such things, more than I expected, so have a read of this article and take a look around. You might be surprised at what is available nowadays.
Here Is But A Few!
This trap is non-toxic, therefore safe to use near food and surfaces, and based on using a natural attractant to lure cockroaches on to the trap to get stuck on the sticky base and die. Using this method over a long term can help reduce infestations and get them under control.
These traps are best placed in areas where cockroaches love to live and breed, such as warm, dark places that are close to a food and water source for them. Under the kitchen or bathroom sink is a perfect little hidey-hole for them so placing the traps here will reduce instances and rid your home of these yucky little nasties. Along the walls and water pipes are a good area to place the traps as well.
Each packet contains 6 traps, each lasting approximately 2 months, however if full they should be replaced more frequently to ensure smooth eradication. The beauty of these is that they can easily be picked up and thrown in the garbage without the need to touch the dead bugs. They are pesticide free and do not require any liquid that makes a mess or causes damage to our homes. Once you have the infestation under control, you won't need to purchase as regularly.
This special dust is made from diatoms, fossilised algae that is made into a chalky type of powder that clings to the bodies of bugs as they crawl over it. Because the algae is a hard-shelled organism, the particles produced by the diatoms are very sharp and small and dig through the exoskeletons of insects etc, to cause them to dehydrate and die within 48 hours. This means that the method for killing the insects is a mechanical method rather than chemical.
Diatomaceous Earth can be used on all kinds of insects and spiders, including many more common household pests, making this dust a very versatile and effective pest control process. Simply sprinkle the dust in areas that you have seen insects and leave for a few days before cleaning up. This product is safe enough to rub into your pets fur and cause no problems, but it will definitely cause some for the pesky bugs. It is also possible to sprinkle on carpets and leave until the next vacuuming day because it is non-toxic and won't harm pets or humans.
If you live on a farm or homestead with livestock, you can even dust the coats of your animals with the earth. You can also put it into their food to help get rid of parasites, and also flies can be reduced due to maggots being killed as they try to eat the dung that has been ejected by the animal that was fed the Diatomaceous Earth. This is VERY IMPORTANT – Please take care to use the food grade diatomaceous earth.
If you are definitely not an insect lover and not interested in keeping the bugs alive, here is a fly swatter with a difference. The DynaZap, pictured on the left here, is one way to rid yourself of household pests.
The flat part of the DynaZap is the part that becomes electrified so that when you swat an insect, it instantly electrocutes it.
The zapper has an extendable handle for easy usage and those hard to reach places. It can extend up to 3ft and can be angled up to 90 degrees. It requires 2 AA size batteries to operate. To save on costs and reduce waste, please look into using rechargeable batteries.
It is lightweight so that if it does need to be extended it is still manageable. It can be used for flies, mosquitoes and even wasps if you want to get close enough, and many others. I know quite a number of unwelcome guests in my home that may get a taste of this little device. I'm particularly not fond of spiders and cockroaches, but when mosquitoes enter my house they have to go. They love me for some reason, but I definitely do NOT love them in return.
This would have to be one of my favourite options because it means that it keeps the insects out without having to remove them or kill them. I would much prefer to live a life of allowing insects to survive in their natural environments, but when they come into my own environment, I don't wish to share with them. Out they must go. I mentioned this door in a previous article but wanted to give more information here.
Installation is simple, you place the bar at the top of the door frame and extend to fit. This door is magnetic so that it easily snaps back into place once you have walked through it. The magnets are sewn along the length of the closing section and the door is weighted to keep things in place. While there are quite a few standard sizes, I would recommend checking out the dimensions prior to ordering, just in case your door happens to be longer than the length of these screen door options. If the screen is shorter, you may wish to place something at the base to help prevent insects crawling in under the door, or flying underneath. One of those sand sausages that are made to keep out drafts might do the trick. Perhaps you can sew, tape or glue a small flap on the bottom to cover that area too.
You don't need to worry about needing hands to open the door, you can push through and it just snaps shut behind you. Meaning it is great to allow a much needed breeze on hot summer days and nights, without the fear of creepy crawlies getting inside. If you have pets, they can get in and out without you having to open the door for them, and having parties and BBQs are no problem at all.
If you prefer, you can use it only during the seasons that insects are more prevalent and take it down during the seasons where there is less risk of insects bothering you inside the home. In Australia, insects tend to be an all year round problem, however mosquitoes and flies are more regular visitors during our summer months. When you take the screen down, it rolls up neatly for easy storage. This also makes it easy to take away with you on holidays in case you have need of it while staying in a cabin, motor home or apartment. And you can quickly put it up and down whenever you have need of it.
I hope you have found some answers here to the burning question of how to do your own pest control without the use of toxic and dangerous chemicals. There are of course, some home made solutions available to you also, which I will leave for another article, but if you are pressed for time, or simply not that way inclined to do it yourself, these are a great place to start.

The following article originally appeared on ABP Live on July 12, 2016.
Despite these immense efforts, the Philippines had constructed a clever legal case, invoking international law not for a judgement on the legality of China's territorial control, but instead to assess the status of the islands claimed by China. Around islands, countries can claim territorial sea and an exclusive economic zone (EEZ), where they can exercise sole fishing, drilling, and resource rights. But that does not apply if the feature is an uninhabitable rock or submerged during high tide. It was on this simple, yet technical, issue that the legal case against China rested.
The court's verdict has proved a resounding rebuttal to China, essentially on four grounds.
First, the Court determined that almost all of the Philippines' complaints fell within its jurisdiction, despite Chinese arguments that the South China Sea was a matter of territorial sovereignty, that Beijing had not agreed to such international arbitration, and that military matters fell outside the Court's purview.
Second, the Court rubbished China's claims to the South China Sea on historical grounds, deeming them contrary to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the bedrock of international maritime law.
Third, it ruled that the islands claimed by China were in some cases low-tide elevations, and thus within the Philippines' EEZ, and in other cases were rocks, incapable of "sustaining human habitation or economic life" under natural circumstances. Despite China's reclamation and construction efforts, these were rocks, not islands. China was thus in violation of the Philippines' EEZ, and not the other way around.
Finally, and in conclusion, the court ruled clearly that China had violated UNCLOS and other elements of international law by denying the Philippines access to fishing and other maritime resources, by constructing artificial islands, by disregarding environmental concerns, and by aggravating and expanding the dispute while resolution proceedings were underway.
Why does this case matter so much? For the first time since its rise as a global power, the People's Republic of China finds itself in flagrant violation of international law on an issue that it deems a "core national interest," and thus non-negotiable. There are now concerns that China might respond by further aggravating tensions with the Philippines, its backer the United States, or other regional actors directly or indirectly involved in the South China Sea disputes. As a result, the uneasy consensus in Asia may fracture, forcing various countries to take sides, either with China or against it. This is a situation that India will have to monitor carefully.
But the South China Sea ruling matters to India for other reasons as well. Much of India's trade is maritime in nature, and the principle of freedom of navigation and overflight are therefore crucial, particularly in important commercial channels. As Tanvi Madan of the Brookings Institution has pointed out, China's handling of the South China Sea dispute also serves as an indicator of how Beijing might approach other disputes, including possibly with India. Furthermore, when it comes to arbitration under international law, India has set a positive precedent, having accepted international arbitration on the Indus Waters Treaty and in its maritime dispute with Bangladesh, and respecting the result of the latter even though it went largely against India.

'Vulnerable' patient killed at Highgate Mental Health Centre 'badly let down'
Emily Pennink, Pa

A man was beaten, strangled and then set alight by a fellow patient on a "rogue ward" at Highgate Mental Health Centre, a court has heard.

Carl Thorpe, 46, was "badly let down by staff" who failed to prevent the killing on Coral Ward, the Old Bailey was told.
His killer, Jordan Bramble, 22, had a history of violence and was supposed to have been kept under constant watch by staff at the secure mental health unit in Dartmouth Park Hill.
The defendant, who has paranoid schizophrenia, was unfit to stand trial for Mr Thorpe's murder. A jury deliberated for 40 minutes to find that he did the act.
Judge John Hillen QC thanked Mr Thorpe's family for their "restraint and dignity" throughout the case.
He said Bramble, who is at Broadmoor Hospital, faced being detained under the Mental Health Act for an unlimited amount of time.
Jurors heard Mr Thorpe suffered from schizophrenia and had been admitted to the mental health centre on February 1 last year, just over a day before his death.

Bramble had spent three years in mental health units from 2014 to August 2018 and during that time had broken the nose of a staff member and punched a sleeping patient.
At 6.27am on February 3 last year, staff were alerted to smoke and flames coming from the victim's room.
Mr Thorpe's unresponsive body, wrapped in a sheet or towel, was pulled out, with the material still on fire.
A post-mortem examination found he suffered from injuries to his face and head from punches or kicks and he had been strangled.
There were burns to his face, neck, chest and arms from being set on fire after death.
At the time of Mr Thorpe's death, a member of the nursing team was supposed to have sight of Bramble at all times, jurors were told.
But prosecutor Julian Evans said: "That level of observation simply did not happen.
Mr Thorpe was a "vulnerable" man who should have been under regular observation, the court heard.
Mr Evans said: "You might think he was very badly let down."
Hossein Zahir QC, defending, said the staff were effectively employed on a "rogue ward" to a night shift "wholly out of control".
A workforce investigation dated June 29 2019 made findings and a support worker was summarily dismissed on July 31 2019 "as were others", jurors were told.


A New Yorker from birth and at heart, Astrid Voxx honed her skills in Miami Beach High's Rock Ensemble then University of Miami's honor choir plus nailing auditions to a myriad of diverse local bands, giving her that well rounded ability to sing almost ANYTHING!
Learning drums and guitar was inevitable and would FOREVER be a part of her musical arsenal. Her talent and experience has won her opportunities to sing on tour with Jimmy Buffet, appeared on Star Search, wrote a video for an 80's dance hit-"Serious", acted on Primal Rage, Any Given Sunday, Death Match, Miami Vice and does cartoon voices for PBS and national radio commercials.
Creating The Bango Bangos has been a "childhood dream" of hers so when her daughter informed her that The GoGo's played their last show, she knew the time was right to make her dream a reality! She blended the names of The Bangles and The GoGo's together and voila!...The Bango Bango's! After rehearsing with Ida, Roxy and Cindy, her AMAZING concept came to fruition, The first ALL FEMALE TRIBUTE to The GoGo's and The Bangles in South Florida!
Her fondest childhood memory is going to Disney and using her hairbrush as a microphone!
Most prized possession is a tie between her Takamine guitar and her Vistalite drums. Her family is tops too!
Favorite color is cobalt blue but her closet says BLACK!
Dream vacation would be Hawaii of course although Paris and Madrid are AMAZING and she speaks French and Spanish so no problem there!
Spiritual fulfillment is what attracts her to performing!
The Elvis Costello remake of "Doll Revolution" would be her FAVE song by The Bangles and "Unforgiven" would be her FAVE track by The GoGo's! This band does them both so it's TOTALLY TUBULAR!


SEOUL (REUTERS) - Forty-one South Korean players have been handed worldwide lifetime bans following a match-fixing scandal in the country's K-League, world governing body Fifa said on Wednesday.
The 41, charged after a domestic match-fixing investigation dating back to 2011, received lifetime bans from all football activity by the K-League and the Korea Football Association and Fifa's disciplinary committee extended the sanctions to have worldwide effect.
South Korean sport has been marred by match-fixing allegations in professional football, volleyball and baseball, forcing the government to declare war on the issue.
In February football officials scrapped the K-League Cup competition as part of sweeping changes brought in to avoid a repeat of last year's match-fixing scandal.
Ten other players involved in match-fixing were given worldwide bans by Fifa in June while in March, South Korea's volleyball association banned 11 players for life in a bid to curb corruption in domestic sport.

Приглашённые звёзды

Сюжет
Поли Уолнатс выходит из тюрьмы, и ему устраивают огромную вечеринку в Бада Бинге!. На следующий день, Тони и Ральфи получают идею от Брайана Каммараты обмануть фонд федерального министерства жилищного строительства и городского развития (HUD) с помощью фиктивных сделок. Тони вербует сенатора Зеллмана и его друга, Мориса Тиффена, ранее идеалистического руководителя некоммерческой жилищной программы с низкими доходами, чтобы положить план в действие. Они также вербуют доктора Айру Фрида в качестве подставного покупателя, чтобы изначально купить заброшенную собственность в бедном квартале. После одной из своих тайных деловых встреч в сауне, Зеллман приватно признаётся Тони, что он познакомился и встречался с бывшей подружкой Тони, Ириной, и просит одобрения у Тони. Тони кажется понимающим и утверждает, что он счастлив, что Ирина больше не его проблема. Позже, в ходе необъявленного визита в дом Зеллмана, Тони обнаруживает, что Ирина готовит обед для него, и узнаёт, что Зеллман платит за её курсы английского языка.

Встречи украдкой Адрианы с ФБР продолжаются. Посмотрев телевизионную драму по телевизору, ей приходит идея о том, что супруг не может быть принуждён к даче показаний против своего партнёра. Веря, что ФБР перестанет изводить её, если они не смогут использовать её показания, она просит Кристофера наконец назначить дату их свадьбы. Но когда он упоминает про заведение детей, она также со слезами на глазах раскрывает ему, что она могла быть стерильной, что очень сильно злит её жениха и заставляет уйти в приступе ярости. Кристофер получает кайф от героина и ищет совета у членов своей преступной семьи, которые (кроме Поли) уговаривают жениться на Адриане независимо от этого, когда Тони верит, что современная медицина может помочь с бесплодием, и Сильвио шутливо предостерегает его, что он может стать таким как Джуниор или Поли, оставшись одним. Кристофер возвращается к своей невесте и соглашается жениться на ней. Адриана раскрывает новость своим друзьям и семье, и Кармела первой услышала про брачные планы. Однако, позже, во время непринуждённой беседы с подругой, примеряя свадебное платье, она узнаёт, что супружеские привилегии могут к ней вообще не относиться. Она тайно идёт к адвокату, который говорит ей, что супружеские привилегии будут распространяться только на разговоры, которые происходят после свадьбы, не в присутствии третьих лиц, и не способствуют какой-либо преступной деятельности. Какая бы ни была компрометирующая у неё компрометирующая беседа с Кристофером, соответствующим всем этим критериям, брак не решит её проблемы с законом. Её подкрепляют агенты ФБР, которые обсуждают вероятность их бракосочетания, и не озвучивают никаких серьёзных возражений.

Тони берёт Энтони-младшего на прогулку, описывая ему гордую историю преданности его семьи работе, показывая ему церковь в Ньюарке, которую его дед каменщик помог построить, и преподавая ему урок бизнеса для покупки недвижимости, отвозя его показать ветхие дома, которые он купил благодаря афере с HUD. Однако, для Энтони-младшего, его интерес к старым временам уходит так далеко, что он удивлён, насколько низко обойдётся обслуживание номеров в отелях. Энтони-мл. становится впетчалён своим отцом, когда он дерзит и оскорбляет наркоторговца и его зависимую от крэка сестру. Тони рассказывает о своей неудовлетворённости сыном доктору Мелфи, но она переключает свою сосредоточенность на предупреждение для Тони контролировать его неприемлемые вспышки гнева против неё во время их сеансов психотерапии.

Прежде чем продать приобретённую недвижимость федеральному правительству, Тони говорит Зеллману, что наркоманы должны быть выведены оттуда, тем более там около $7000 в медных трубах, где они живут, и угрожает ему меньшей оплатой, если проблема не будет решена. Поскольку использование белых бандитов в гетто вызовет подозрение и веря, что полиция разрешит ситуацию лишь временно, Мориса Тиффена навещает Зеллман и, угрожая теми же угрозами заработать меньше от сделки, сказал позаботиться об этом, отправив некоторых бандитов. Четыре молодых вооружённых подростков появляются на собственности. Они стреляют в воздух и бьют сквоттеров бейсбольными битами, включая семью, ранее виденную Тони и Энтони-младшим, пока маленький ребёнок наблюдает. Во время рейда, мужчина семьи ловит рикошетовую пулю и получает ранении в его гениталии. Позже, команду во главе с Вито Спатафоре можно увидеть, вспарывающую дома ради меди и "покровные части". Доктор Фрид продаёт землю организации Тиффена в три раза дороже его покупной стены, в результате мошеннических аттестаций, и получает свою цену продажи за счёт средств, заимствованных из HUD. Зеллману и Тиффену платят в Бинге. Они обсуждают сделку и освобождаются от устаревших моральных зазрений совести. Тони награждает часами Patek Philippe стоимостью $15 000.

В другом месте, предварительный флирт Камрелы и Фурио Джунты продолжается, когда он звонит ей под предлогом поиска своих потерявшихся солнцезащитных очков. Позже, когда Фурио едет забрать Тони утром, он отказывается от предложения Кармелы зайти на чашку кофе, утверждая, что он должен сидеть в машине, потому что у неё проблемы с двигателем.

Тем временем, Поли даёт больше информации на своих встречах с Джонни Сэком. Они встречаются в кафе River Cafe в Бруклине и он раскрывает схему HUD, а также добивается гарантий от Джонни, что их дискуссии будут храниться в секрете.

В конце эпизода, во время вождения, Тони слушает "Oh Girl" The Chi-Lites по радио и у него начинают идти слёзы. Он останавливается у квартиры Ирины и спрашивает, есть ли у неё что-нибудь выпить. Он поднимается наверх, он натыкается на Зеллмана и бьёт его своим ремнём, заставляя Зеллмана плакать перед Ириной.

Название
 Адриана смотрит телесериал «Одно убийство» и узнаёт, что она не должна представлять доказательства против Кристофера, если они поженятся. Но её друг говорит ей, что, согласно эпизоду «Она написала убийство», это не всегда так.

Другие культурные отсылки
 Сильвио делает ссылку на фильм «Мотылёк» для Поли, когда они впервые встретили друг друга после того, как он вышел из тюрьмы, называя Поли в честь одноимённого персонажа, который был приговорён пожизненно в исправительной колонии на Чёртовом острове.
 Поли говорит Джонни Сэку, что он пропустил Good & Plenties, находясь в тюрьме.
 В отдельных сценах, Адриана смотрит по телевизору сериалы «Одно убийство» и «Команда-А».
 Тони слушает WCBS-FM.

Связи с предыдущими эпизодами
 Как и в пилотном эпизоде с Медоу, Тони берёт с собой Энтони-младшего, чтобы показать церковь, которую его (Тони) дедушка построил, когда он впервые пришёл в США из Авеллино.

Музыка
 Песня, играющая при возвращении Поли (песня Поли) - "Nancy (With the Laughing Face" Фрэнка Синатры; почему она важна для него не было объяснено.
 Песня, которая играет во время финальных титров - "Oh Girl" группы The Chi-Lites.
 В сцене в столовой, где Брайан, Тони и Ральф обсуждают аферу с HUD, на заднем плане играет музак версия песни "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" группы Steely Dan.
 Когда Зеллман и Тони говорят в раздевалке после сауны, играет песня "Green Onions" группы Booker T. & the M.G.'s.
 Во время дискуссии между Тони и Кристофером, песня "Slow Ride" группы Foghat играет на заднем плане.
 По радио в машине Тони, на пути к дому Зеллмана, до "Oh Girl" играла "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" Bachman-Turner Overdrive.
 В Бада Бинге, играет песня "Nashville Pussy" группы Drive.

With kids becoming more dependent on technology, it is important to me that my children experience the benefits of traditional play. However, with the toy industry adapting to the digital age, traditional toys are becoming harder to find. Thankfully, companies such as PlAYMOBIL® continue to provide toys that engage kids in classic, creative play. PLAYMOBIL was generous enough to send me their Ski Lodge building set to review.
Since its creation by Hans Beck in 1974, PLAYMOBIL has inspired children around the world with its themed playsets. The company's highly detailed figures have iconic smiles and feature movable joints to capture the personality of each character. Each figure is part of a theme to stimulate a child's imagination as they create a miniature world. The themes range from sports and history to princesses and pirates. PLAYMOBIL continues to create new characters to keep kids engaged in classic play.
The Ski Lodge is a 146 piece set that includes five figures, chairs, mittens, firewood, shovels, and much more. With this set, guests can rent equipment to test their skills on the snowy slopes, warm up to a cup of hot cocoa, or enjoy the view from the terrace. When the day comes to end, they can warm up by the fire before heading to the cozy beds in the loft. This set comes with detailed instructions to help with the building process. You can purchase it on the PLAYMOBIL website. You will also find other Winter Sports figures and accessories for even more ways to play.
We did not have the technology that we have today while I was growing up, so we often relied on our imaginations when it came to play. Some of my fondest childhood memories revolve around the make-believe worlds my sister and I created. I want my children to create these types of lasting memories so I love toys like PLAYMOBIL that encourage pretend, open-ended play. With PLAYMOBIL toys, the possibilities for creative role play are endless. The sets serve as a backdrop that children can build their stories around. As they bring these stories to life, they are also improving their hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.
My boys love to build and they couldn't wait to get started on this set. With a little help, they assembled it correctly in under an hour. The pieces feature incredible details that really help bring the scene to life. The boys have since combined this set with some of their others to create a world only they understand. This is definitely a toy you can save and cherish for generations to come.
Be sure to visit PLAYMOBIL here to check out all of their fun toy lines. You can also connect with them onFacebook, Twitter, YouTube, and Instagram.

ZetaTalk: a Twirling Wobble
written May 25 2004 during the Lou Gentile show
When are the Earth changes, the things going on now, going to become so obvious that there will be no question, no more debate.
It has seemed an interminable time since we stated on May 15, 2003 that rotation stoppage and the pole shift were imminent, but in fact Planet X was just coming into the inner solar system on the other side of the Sun from the Earth on that date. On May 15, 2003, there was a very dramatic view, directly across the Sun. Planet X was more brilliant and more easily photographed than it is now. Then the Earth traveled for 6 months to be meeting Planet X, where it was coming into the inner solar system, and there we sit, for the last 5 months, in a shoving contest which Planet X will win, which has likewise seemed to be taking forever. The view of Planet X is not as brilliant now. If you're staring at something or looking out of the side of your eye, there's a difference. You are currently looking out of the side of your eye. It is shrouded in its dust cloud and floating about out there next to the Sun, or so it appears from the view from Earth, at least, so it is not something that you can easily pick out as it is lost in the light of the super bright Sun, part of which is the reflection from that dust cloud. Yes, there are more exploding factories now, global shuddering during the sweeps, but how long is this going to go on? We have inferred, and detailed, that there is an end to this.
Magnets, magnetic fields, are very strong. Planet X is a huge magnet, it is 23 times the mass of Earth though only 4 times the diameter. Therefore, due to its mass, it is a magnet that will win in the shoving contest. What do Magnets do? If you lay, as every school child has been taught to do, iron flakes on a plate of glass and a magnet underneath, and tap that so that you can see the magnetic field lines, you will notice that at the poles, the magnetic field lines are almost vertical, but as you get close to the middle of the magnet, they become almost horizontal coming off of the magnet, and round. Planet X came up from beneath the Sun, at a 32° angle, and as its N Pole is very attracted to the Sun's S Pole as it is passing, Planet X is slinging its S Pole to the side and is skewed along the magnetic flow lines. This is why the Earth is currently leaning its N Pole toward the S Pole of Planet X, likewise tilting and leaning, thus simulating the seasons where the northern hemisphere gets more Sun, confusing the issue as the Book of Enoch has stated.
Now, this will not last forever. At first, that skew is slight, but as Planet X rises toward the Ecliptic that skewing becomes more extreme, it has a tendency to lie almost horizontal such that the S Pole of Planet X is pointing away from the Sun, and the Earth likewise will increase its tilt and lean. But what happens when magnets get side by side, when they line up together? When Planet X approaches the mid point of the Sun, the Ecliptic, it will decide to become straight up and down along with the Sun, and that is at least a 45° swing for the skew that it currently has. The Earth will adjust, especially because Planet X will be between the Earth and the Sun, and all of a sudden the N Pole of Earth will swing in many different directions as it adjusts itself to this sudden change. We mentioned, in the Whiplash ZetaTalk, that ricochet effects and twirling are possible. Twirling? What does that mean? Why is the cold spot to the west of Hudson Bay the coldest spot on Earth? That's not the N Pole. What point is pointing away from the Sun most of the day? Are we going to develop a wobble? Are we going to suddenly lurch about so that the Sun is rising and setting in a place way off from where the public would expect? And what happens to the crust when that happens? Imagine the Glasgow factory explosion 100 times over across the world. Imagine the I-70 overpass beam dropping on every major freeway so that travel is not possible except for short spurts locally. This is in your future, folks, but we will not give you the date.
