Which Parent Decides Preschool When They Have Joint Legal Custody In New Jersey?
As a New Jersey attorney who concentrates divorce and child custody cases, I embrace that the Court's focus is always the child's best interest. I am proud to say that this rings true at for myself and the excellent lawyers who work at my law firm. Parents would ideally make decisions concerning their children according to what is in the best interest of their children. A divorce tends to add much more complications hostility, and pettiness to any joint decision parents must make. Many times this culminates in disputes that have to be decided by the courts. The recent case of Madison v. Davis, explored the rights of parents to pick their child's preschool.
In Madison v. Davis, husband and wife divorced in 2013 after four years of marriage. In a matrimonial settlement agreement, both parties agreed to share joint legal custody of their three year old child, with the wife serving as the primary residential parent.
The parties commenced brand new litigation only four months after their divorce settled. The issue at hand, concerned the wife's decision to change the child's day care provider. The new pre-school was of similar cost and location. The wife stated that the reason she switched providers was that the new pre-school offered swimming classes. The husband countered, arguing that his ex-wife's real reason for switching pre-schools was due to a personal conflict she had with the director of the first pre-school. The director had allowed the husband to sign the child out of school one time without the wife's knowledge and consent.
Conversely, the wife argued that her ex-husband unreasonably interpreted both the terms of their settlement agreement, and the legal analysis set forth in Beck, in a restrictive manner. While the wife admitted that legal custody requires decision making on education, she argued that this concept only applies once the child reaches school age and begins regular education classes. Moreover, the principle did not apply to pre-school or day care, because choosing one is not a major educational decision. Finally, the wife pointed out that the divorce agreement stated education related provisions in the future tense, reflecting that the work-related day care and pre-school did not require the same level of joint parental discretion as the selection of full-time school.
The wife further contended that her status as primary residential parent gave her the right to select the day care provider. She relied upon the legal principles from another landmark New Jersey Supreme Court case, Pascale v. Pascale.
The court in Pascale, held that the primary residential parent is, in general, in charge of numerous aspects of a child's life. These aspects include "arranging alternative care." Pascale, further held the child's main caretaker needs authority to make day to day decisions. Thus, in a joint legal custodial relationship, the residential parent is given slightly more authority to decide issues in the event of a disagreement. As a result, the wife concluded that she had the authority to switch the child's pre-school with or without her ex-husbands prior approval.
After reviewing and analyzing both Beck, and Pascale, the court noted that neither case dealt with questions concerning preschool. As such, it would have been problematic to decide the case by using generic principles out of either Beck, or Pascale. Principles of law must be considered in the context of the facts before the court. Beck, did not state that every decision involving a child's education involving pre-school must be made jointly by divorced parents. Nor did Beck hold that a non-residential parent who disagrees with the residential parent's choice of pre-school, has automatic veto power, or can legally prevent the residential parent from switching day care providers by simply withholding consent. Similarly, Pascale, did not address pre-school either. Actually, the court discussed day care merely as one example of a residential parent's many traditional functions. Pascale, also did not hold that a residential parent is free to arbitrarily change a child's existing pre-school, without notice to the other parent.
The court stated that the matter of a child's attendance at pre-school is new, and the court must analyze the dispute based on fairness, logic, and common sense, in addition to the principles enumerated in Beck, and Pascale. The court applied the afore-mentioned principles and found that both parents had worthy claims regarding their rights, and the most equitable result would be a hybrid one that combined the principles of Beck, and Pascale, into one.
According to the court, pre-school and daycare have two purposes. First, to provide a responsible care-taker for the child during business hours, so a parent can work, make a living, and provide for the child. Second, to provide the child with meaningful educational value during the same hours. Pre-school can benefit a young child in an educational and social manner. A child enrolled in pre-school has the benefit of an early introduction to important academic subjects like math, science, social studies, and art. From a social perspective, a child can benefit from experiencing how to function in a group setting, with similarly aged children, outside of the home. Moreover, a child has the opportunity to learn the concepts of responsibility, politeness, patience, and friendship from children with diverse backgrounds. This experience can benefit a child when he or she transitions to kindergarten. Therefore many parents place their children in day care, even though they might not have a work-related need, exclusively for educational and social benefits.
The issue in Madison v. Davis, was that the two divorced parents could not get along or decide which pre-school their child should attend. As a result, the court decided that the stalemate between the parents was not in the best interest of the child, and decided to act under parens patriae jurisdiction, to break the tie and determined a reasonable way to solve the problem. Parens patriae is a Latin term that means "parent of the country." This doctrine's greatest application is in the treatment of children, mentally ill persons, and other individuals who are legally incompetent to manage their own affairs. The state is the supreme guardian of all children within its jurisdiction, and state courts have the inherent power to intervene to protect the best interests of children whose welfare is jeopardized by controversies between parents.
Accordingly, the court found that the wife exercised reasonable parental discretion when she chose to change the child's pre-school. The two schools were similar in cost, location, and services. There was nothing inherently unreasonable about the switch. While the husband did have the right, as a joint legal parent, to bring his objections to court, he failed to prove that the switch was unreasonable, or burdened the child, the parent, or the parent/child relationship in a significant way. Therefore the court stated that the wife's decision to switch schools was valid, and ordered the father to continue contributing to the pre-school costs.

Arredo Barlozzini history
It began in the late 1950s, when Giuseppe Barlozzini dedicated himself to the selling of furniture for the home.
In the mid-60s, Giuseppe officially decided to make his dream a reality by creating the first exhibition space of Mobili Barlozzini, the name with which the company built up an excellent reputation over the next 15 years. So much so that in 1975, he expanded the headquarters with a new building of 1000 square meters for the exhibition space and 600 square meters used as a warehouse.
Projects of Interior design
Years of activity
In the following years, the company achieved excellent growth results. During this period the company changed its name to Arredo Barlozzini. And it continued to expand its exhibition space to 3000 square meters and the warehouse to 900 square meters.
In 1983 his son Andrea Barlozzini joined the company, who inherited his passion for furniture and everything related to furnishings in general. This was a further stimulus for the development of the company which led to the opening of a new showroom of 400 square meters in the city of Perugia in 1984.
After a few years, joinery was also launched, which at least initially started more as a challenge, becoming over time one of the strongholds of the family business Barlozzini. Also with regards to great commercial growth, in 1990 the new Orvieto showroom was opened, in an exceptional location along Via del Duomo. The space is only 190 square meters, but it has an incredible exposure since the "world" passes through that street.
This permitted Arredo Barlozzini to expand its range of action not only in the areas surrounding the various exhibition centers, but also to start an important collaboration with foreign customers.
Headquarter and Show Room – Montegabbione ( TR )
In the years that followed, the first website was also quickly put online, where the most important offers and services are available, such as the wedding list, which is posted on the web after it has been well-established in the shop after years of experience.
Show Room Orvieto
In May 2003, the Orvieto showroom was expanded with a new 70 square metre space. During this period, the need of following the customer in a widespread way arose. Therefore, the company started to design not furniture for its own sake, but also everything related to the total renovation (floors, coatings, doors, windows, etc.).
Shoow Room – Perugia
In 2016 Arredo Barlozzini changed its name to Barlozzini Interiors.
During the same period, important investments were made for the internal and external renovation of the historical headquarters.
The history of Barlozzini Interiors is characterized by a continuous and positive evolution of the company, with particular attention to the novelties of each historical moment, placing the satisfaction of the customer at the heart of its activity thanks to competent advice from a staff capable of putting into practice the ideas and needs of its customers, with furnishing solutions that stand out for their quality, value and design.

My client, Katie, has been struggling for a few weeks. She did well learning and mastering the initial skills (eating everything sitting down, eating slowly and mindfully, eating according to a schedule, etc.), but was having major trouble sticking to the food plans she made. Each night she would dutifully make a plan for what she would eat the next day but told me she was only following it about 50% of the time. For a couple of weeks we worked on figuring out what sabotaging thoughts were getting in the way of sticking to her plan and coming up with Response Cards for them. But that didn't really seem to be all that effective. She still found that in the moment her thoughts got the better of her and she would deviate from her plan.
When I saw that what we were doing just wasn't working, I knew we had to try a different strategy. As usual, I asked Katie to describe some of the situations from the past week in which she went off track. She told me that she ate a roll at dinner when she didn't plan to and she had unplanned desserts in the evening. She also ate a rich potato dish at a catered lunch at work when she had planned on only having a chef salad. I discussed with Katie that the she was making "best case scenario" plans – meaning she was making plans that she considered to be ideal. These plans didn't reflect how she was actually comfortable eating. I proposed that for a week, Katie make a plan that included all of the things she wanted to eat but thought she shouldn't. After all, she usually ended up eating them in an unplanned way, anyway! Although she would not have the healthiest eating week possible, she could focus solely on building the muscle of sticking to her plan. Once she got better at sticking to her plan, then we could start working on gradually reducing some foods she considered to be less healthy.
Katie came back this week and told me that she stuck to her plan about 85% of the time, which was a major improvement from the prior weeks. The one area she was still not planning well was dessert. She would plan a reasonable amount and then end up eating more. We decided that for this week, she would continue to plan in the same way she had the previous week, and once again the primary goal would just be to stick to her plan. We also decided that Katie would continue to plan a reasonable amount of dessert every evening. However, she would have to go out each day and get the dessert that she was eating that day, and only bring that amount home. For right now, it was too hard for Katie to keep multiple portions of dessert in her house. Our future goals will be to pare down how much she's planning to eat each day, and work on building her resistance muscle around dessert. But we're taking it one step at a time!
I have the same trouble as Katie, I just seem to loose control when it comes to desserts. I say I'm like a shark with blood, gross analogy, but that how it is. I am going to try this approach. Thanks, your tips are always helpful and do-able.
Great idea! Sometimes my plan is too restrictive and I end up eating off plan on those days. Since I write it all down, I can see there's a pattern. It seems when I loosen up a bit and plan for some limited amount of extras, it's much easier to stick with the daily plan. Thanks for your wonderful ideas.
I have medical conditions and so my life is very regimented. I find that I'm rebelling because I'm resentful of the structure I always have to have. I see a hint of how to address this in this post, but I'm still not totally sure how to address this more directly. I know what my goals are, I know why, I know how to lose weight (I lost 175lbs before). I know when this rebellion started: It was when I got diagnosed with multiple food allergies (as in: if I eat egg yolks or coconut, my throat swells shut; my allergist has done IGE testing & blood testing). I have six food allergies (palm oil & sunflower are the most difficult to avoid).
I would be so thankful for more stories involving self-sabotage. Maybe even about "grief" over foods given up or frustration over "structure" and "routine." Thank you!
When I see people struggling on the weight loss site I use, I see that it's almost always that they are asking too much of themselves. It's usually asking too much to eat only ideal foods and also to have a lot of unideal foods around. Slim cultures don't have desserts around every day!

Lagos churches, mosques to screen worshipers
TNC Reporter
Churches and mosques in Lagos State are soon to start screening worshippers, especially on busy days such as Sundays and Fridays. The need to the screening, as part of measures to prevent terror attacks in the wake of the arrest of some Boko Haram members in Lagos, emerged at a meeting yesterday in Lagos between the state government and religious leaders. The meeting came on a day the military announced that Nigerian Air Force (NAF) had carried out air strikes on the Sambisa Forest, destroying Boko Haram's vehicle workshops, fuel and ammunition dumps.
At the Lagos meeting, Home Affairs Commissioner, Dr. AbdulHakeem AbdulLateef, urged religious leaders to screen worshipers and employ more personnel to beef up security in their various worship centres. AbdulLateef, who urged residents to remain calm but vigilant, appealed to the religious leaders to preach tolerance, love and unity at all times, saying that clerics have great role to play in ensuring peaceful coexistence in the state. He called for cooperation to sustain the harmony in the state. He said:
"We would advise churches, mosques, all the places of worship in Lagos State to buy metal detectors, and to employ more security personnel to ensure extremists, terrorists do not have their way because they know how to target soft spots." AbdulLateef added that the state government is doing everything possible to ensure the security of lives and property, adding that religious leaders must also play their roles by being vigilant and preaching security consciousness. : "The situation of insurgency in this country is worrisome. For the religious leaders, institutions and organisations, we must be vigilant. Vigilance is the key word now.
"This ministry is going to come up with a lot of policies, part of which is improving our relationship with religious organisations and institutions, creating the data base for all religious institutions in Lagos State, enumerating the churches and mosques. Let us know how many do we have, where they are? "We are partnering the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) on the standard expected of a church. We are also partnering with the Muslim Council on the standard expected of a mosque, regulating activities of religious institutions so as to safeguard the welfare of people who come to worship and not endanger it," he added. The commissioner stressed the need for government to quickly intervene in activities of the religious centres so as to ensure the safety of all the residents in the state.
Also yesterday, the air force said it destroyed Boko Haram's vehicle workshops, fuel and ammunition dumps during attacks on Sambisa Forest. NAF said it deployed its Alpha Jets for the latest operation, after undertaking a discreet Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR).
A statement by NAF's spokesman, Air Commodore Dele Alonge, said the ISR was as a result of efforts by the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and ATR-42 platforms. The statement quoted the Chief of Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, as saying that the development has further degraded the capacity of Boko Haram, thereby paving the way for the sect's final defeat. "In a renewed drive to further degrade the Boko Haram Terrorist (BHT) assets, the NAF Alpha Jets have successfully carried out airstrikes and destroyed the sect's vehicle workshops, fuel and ammunition dumps all within the Sambisa forest. "This feat by the Nigerian Air Force came as a result of a painstaking Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) efforts by the NAF's Unmanned Aerial vehicle (UAV) and ATR-42 platforms.
"In view of the above, the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, wishes to assure all Nigerians that with these successful strikes on the insurgents, their capabilities have been further degraded to pave the way for the final onslaught by the land forces to meet the Commander-in-Chief, President Muhammadu Buhari's directive to bring insurgency in the North- East to an end," the statement said.
The military is under intense pressure to crush Boko Haram by the end of December, in fulfilment of Buhari's directive This is as the terrorists have scaled-up suicide bomb attacks on soft targets in recent times, with attendant deaths, injuries and destruction of property.
Meanwhile, the Federal Government has commenced moves to evolve a new communication strategy aimed at tackling the ideological roots and negative narratives of the Boko Haram terrorists and other insurgent groups in the country. The strategy, known as the National Strategy for Strategic Communications (NSSC), is similar to the soft-approach programme of the previous administration and will regulate government communication across the Ministries, Department and Agencies (MDAs) and reinforce their core-values towards de-radicalisation of terrorists. National Security Adviser (NSA), Maj.-Gen. Babagana Mongonu (rtd) gave this indication at a workshop on 'Counter Violent Extremism (CVE)-Media Round Table' in Abuja.
Monguno, represented by a Deputy Director in his office, Ahmad Gusau, said the NSSC was a policy document put together by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) with the technical support of the European Union. Mongonu added that a validation workshop on the draft NSCC was held in June 2015 and the contributions of the various departments of government and other stakeholders were being integrated before the document would be approved and unveiled. According to him, the draft NSSC has as one of its six focal areas, the relationship between government and the media.
He said the media round table was meant to draw the attention of journalists to current trends in the use of media by terrorists and violent extremist groups, including the ISIS, which has since established links with Boko Haram. Monguno said both groups had been exploiting the media to radicalise, propagate their agenda in order to recruit new converts. He, however, added that the media has since recognised that the insurgents were enemies of the Nigerian state whose violent activities have a negative impact on the collective psyche and wellbeing of the populace.

PIXELTEQ's magenta color filters provide consistent vibrant color for all kinds of illumination and detection applications. The multi-edge notch or minus dichroic filter design transmits both shorter blue and longer red visible wavelengths and reflects central green visible wavelengths. Also known as thin film or interference filters, PIXELTEQ's magenta color filters use multi-layer hard sputtered coatings that provide durable shift-free performance without fading or aging in high output luminaires.
Unlike absorptive colored glass or polymer gels, these thin film interference filters are virtually absorption free – providing superior transmission, rich saturated blue colors, and true lifetime performance. The magenta color filters also have steep edge transitions between the shorterand longer wavelength transmission bands and the central green wavelength reflection band – much steeper than colored glass or polymer gels.
Custom colors are available to match specific cut-off & cut-on wavelengths and calibrated CIE colors – engineered for your specific illumination source & optics to deliver the targeted color output. These color filters can be patterned on gradient wheels or flags for smooth variable CMY or RGB color mixing. Multiple colors can also be micro-patterned for full color and photorealistic imaging effects and gobos. In addition to customized coatings, the optics are delivered in the form to fit your application – in specific substrates, shapes, and sizes.

Spalding County extends voting hours after issues with machines
Spalding County voters frustrated by system crashing, issues at polls
SPALDING COUNTY, Ga. — Spalding County officials an issue with voting machines caused major problems at polling places across the county today.
A judge has ordered that voting be extended until 9 p.m. across the county. Voters who are in line by 7 p.m. can use the regular machines to cast their ballots. Voters who arrive from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. can cast a provisional ballot marked for extended voting times. Those votes will not be tabulated until Friday.
All Spalding County precincts closing time has been extended to 9pm EST, per court order issued by Superior Court Judge W. Fletcher Sams.

Officials say workers incorrectly loaded information onto the poll pads Tuesday morning so none of the machines were working.
[LIVE UPDATES: Georgians head to polls to cast ballots in 2020 presidential election]
The county rushed thousands of provisional ballots to each precinct so voting could continue, but many voters spent much or the morning standing in line. Some chose to come back later in the day.
Channel 2′s Tom Jones was in Spalding County, where he went to the local election office to get answers. And elections board member and the elections supervisor said the vendor for the machines notified them at 7:05 a.m. that there was a problem with an overnight update to the system.
"They just said it was a glitch in the system and it would impact our process," board chair Margaret Bentley said.
The glitch prevented the machines from connecting to voting cards, so instead, a poll manager had to use a code and his card for each voter. That caused long lines at some precincts and confusion at others. Some precincts had to use paper provisional ballots.
"Here we go back to the old way," a poll worker said. "Sometimes, the old way is the best way."

At that precinct, voters had to fill out paper ballots. Some voters told us they don't feel safe voting that way.
"Just the process that they're using right now, we're putting our ballots on a cardboard box and they're saying they're gonna put it in a suitcase and take it downtown for it to be counted.

Voters in the county couldn't fathom how on Election Day the voting machines were not working.
"They're weren't prepared for this," said one voter.
It was so bad two local elected officials went to the county elections office to find out what was going on.
"We need to investigate where the failure was," said Rep. David Knight.
Ridley said she didn't know why Spalding was the only county with this issue.
"That is a good question. We're still trying to find the answer to," Ridley said.

A reality check of TTIP: beyond the popular account
An increasingly polarised and largely misinformed debate accompanies TTIP negotiations.
After highlighting what is actually at stake in this agreement, Alberto Alemanno illustrates where the real source of concern lies (My Op-Ed in Euractiv on 11 April 2014)
The conclusion of a Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) is facing more hurdles than those usually accompanying the negotiations of a trade agreement. Given its ambition, novelty and potential disruptive nature on future global economic governance, this result is not a cause of surprise. Yet a better understanding of what is really at stake in TTIP could render the negotiations and the ensuing public debate more informed and less polarised. Unfortunately neither the media nor civil society organisations appears driven by this objective. They rather unwisely contribute to misinform and amplify concerns by focusing on some selected aspects – such as the transparency of the negotiations or the inclusion of an Investor-State Dispute Mechanism (ISDM) – which paradoxically might not be the most problematic of the agreement.
To debunk some myths and possibly refocus the debate, a few fundamentals must therefore be asserted.
First, TTIP is not occurring in a vacuum. In recent decades, governments across the world – including the EU and the US – have cooperated to coordinate policies "behind the borders" through a variety of efforts at the multilateral, regional, and bilateral levels. These efforts have been driven by the trade liberalization agenda, which views domestic regulatory action as a factor impeding international trade. Given the rapidly shifting geopolitical landscape and the current inability of the WTO and other trade arrangements to effectively address nontariff barriers, the EU and the US are willing to go beyond traditional international treaty-making to explore new avenues of international regulatory cooperation. That's where TTIP comes from.
Second, TTIP is expected to deliver more than a transatlantic free trade area: in addition to the commitment to eliminate tariffs, it would embed for the first time the application of good regulatory practices (e.g. consultation, transparency, impact assessment, etc.) into a trade agreement, without however substantially altering the parties' respective ways of making legislation or rules. As a result, TTIP can be seen as a permanent mechanism enabling the respective regulators to enter into ad hoc dialogues aimed not to jointly regulate but to determine whether their regulatory answers to the same problems may result compatible.
Third, unlike any previous trade arrangement, TTIP is set to become a 'living agreement', whose obligations will continuously be added without the need to re-open the initial international treaty nor to modify each others' institutional frameworks. Thus, should the regulators identify areas for convergence (such as marketing authorizations for pharmaceuticals or technical standards for car headlights), their agreed commitments – be it in terms of mutual recognition, equivalence or best practices – will become legally binding through a sectoral annex.
That's where public opinion's attention should be focusing on.
Indeed, although TTIP is not supposed to alter existing regulations or adopt joint standards, its cooperation mechanism – due to the commitment to regulatory coherence – nudges the regulators away of the previously agreed regulatory standards. In so doing TTIP is inevitably set to reopen the legislative and rulemaking processes: determining the equivalence of two separate sets of standards requires going back to a previous internal political decision. In other words, while an agreement reached within a regulatory dialogue – be it equivalence or mutual recognition – does not formally modify the domestic regulatory requirement – which remains unchanged vis-à-vis the domestic product or service –, it implies a departure from it in relation to the imported products or services. This may prompt fundamental accountability problems as the operation of TTIP may result in regulatory processes that gradually appear detached from the previously agreed policy choice and therefore the policy preferences of the regulated.
In these newly created circumstances, it is crucial to foresee some societal and parliamentary oversight on the operation of TTIP that could be capable of satisfactorily address the legitimacy challenges raised by its operation. While there seems to be a case for building a role for the European Parliament and US Congress, it is not clear whether the ongoing negotiations currently envision a mechanism requiring their involvement and how that would connect with the existing transatlantic parliamentary cooperation.
Contrary to current institutional and popular narratives accompanying its negotiations, the fate of TTIPS' success will be played less on issues of transparency or fears of 'race-to-the-bottom' and more on its ability to ensure parliamentary and societal input to guarantee its legitimacy and accountability once in operation.
That's where we should all focus on when debating TTIP.
Alberto Alemanno is Jean Monnet Professor of EU Law at HEC Paris and the author of a forthcoming policy report by the European Parliament entitled "The Parliamentary dimension of TTIP".

Sports By Erika Pesantes, Reporter Friday, January 7, 2022
Estefania Figueiredo, shown at left when she began her fitness regimen in March, 2021, and at right, during a competition on Nov. 13, 2021. Photos courtesy of Estefania Figueiredo.
During the past two years, Estefania Figueiredo wasn't feeling well, so she turned to fitness to get strong.
"I really was not in an optimal shape," said Figueiredo, 31, a human resources consultant for a health care company who lives in Miami Lakes. "I was at a point in my life where I was just not happy.
"On the inside I wasn't feeling good," she said. "I had different aches and pains. I was not feeling athletic. I was not feeling strong at all."
Figueiredo's discomfort prompted her to change her lifestyle, and to not only get healthier, but to enter her first fitness competition.
And after eight months of hard work, she clinched a prize.
In November, Figueiredo showed off her toned and tanned self in a rose gold bikini that dripped with crystals in the
Amateur Diva Bikini Model category of the World Beauty Fitness & Fashion Entertainment competition held in Miami.
Figueiredo hid her nerves behind her smile.
"I feel like I blacked out, but I spent so much time practicing my posing routine that my body took over and I went on auto-pilot," she said, of her performance.
"I was so nervous that I could not stop smiling," she said. "At the end of the day, that was a plus."
Judges awarded her third place in the event held at the Hyatt-Regency Hotel, where she also competed in a sparkly emerald-green evening gown.
Judges looked for "beauty of face, figure, physical fitness, and the confidence with which each contestant carries herself," according to the competition website.
Figueiredo lost 32 pounds during training, and she gained the courage to show judges how hard she'd worked. That was her biggest accomplishment, she said.
Placing third was "just the cherry on top" and unexpected "extra validation," she said.
She keeps her trophy atop her television stand. It continues to motivate her.
"It was definitely something that pushed me way out of my comfort zone," Figueiredo said about the competition.
"But that's kind of what I wanted," she said. "I'm more proud of myself for having stuck to what I wanted to do and getting on the stage than I am for the actual pounds lost."
Still, her fitness feat didn't come easily. Progress was slow and steady, and she relied on a team of coaches in Australia who she got to know through social media. Julia Woodford, Figueiredo's posing coach, would meet with her weekly via Zoom.
They connected on Instagram and met in person for the first time at Figueiredo's competition.
"Her commitment and dedication was amazing," Woodford said in an email from Australia. "I absolutely loved working with her and seeing her improvements every week, not just in her posing and physique but in her confidence."
Everything Figueiredo consumed was calculated and logged, and she watched portion sizes.
"Prep is extremely controlled," she said. "You're counting [the carbs, proteins and fats in] every single bite that you put into your mouth, every lick, every sip of whatever you're drinking —you're counting that," she said.
A typical breakfast was an egg white scramble, English muffin and sautéed vegetables. There was a red Thai curry over noodles or rice, for lunch or dinner. She aimed for up to a maximum 12,000 steps each day, and went to the gym up to six days a week to lift weights. On one of those days she did a cardio workout.
Sculpting her body was just part of the equation.
To improve her stage presence, Figueiredo also practiced posing each day in six-inch heels.
Her advice to those with a fitness-focused New Year's resolution: "Take it one step at a time and be gentle with yourself.
"A lot of people go from zero to 60 and do a complete overhaul and [when] they fall off the wagon, they scrap the whole thing," she said. "It's just a reminder that tiny changes will build up. Motivation comes and goes. What you have to rely on is your discipline."
Figueiredo has a new set of goals for 2022: Build more muscle and get back on stage, where she hopes to become a professional bodybuilder.
"Hopefully we place higher in the show and we get my pro card," she said. That's what I'm chasing."

Research Short Story
A meta-analysis on grassland reclamation using biosolids reveals improved vegetative cover and productivity, but room for improvement to increase plant biodiversity

Research on vegetation responses to the land application of biosolids has increased in the past 20 years, but there is no consensus on how plant communities respond to biosolids applications.
What factors influence productivity and vegetative cover following biosolids application for grassland reclamation?
How does the addition of biosolids impact plant community responses?
Biosolids are a source of nutrient-rich organic material that can be used to improve degraded or disturbed soils, but there is little consensus on how plant communities are impacted by the land application of biosolids. Here, we explored the current literature and conducted a meta-analysis using available research articles to gain a better understanding of the factors that may influence plant growth and plant communities' responses (e.g. biodiversity) following biosolids application for grassland reclamation (including severely degraded lands). Our meta-analysis explored how site characteristics (e.g. climate) and reclamation strategies (e.g. biosolids application rates) impact plant productivity, total vegetative cover, species richness and diversity, and exotic species abundance.
From our search completed in February 2020, we found 59 papers from 1998 to 2019 with the majority of the publications after the year 2000; most of our studies were from North America and Europe (Fig. 1). The studies tended to take measurements within the first five years of reclamation with the longest observation taking 24 years post biosolids application. Most researchers applied biosolids at 100Mg/ha or less with the highest rate at 404 Mg/ha.
Figure 1. Location of study sites. Colors indicate the mean annual temperature (MAT; °C) for each site.
Our analysis revealed that applying biosolids for grassland reclamation generally generates large increases in above-ground productivity and vegetative cover regardless of the amount of biosolids used but had no consistent effect on species richness, diversity or the abundance of exotic plant species. Low to medium levels of biosolids application on sites with a history of a severe disturbance from mining activity, including surface mining and mine spills, may result in increased species richness, as the plant community responds to initial nutrient addition. However, restored communities can lead to increases in biomass of fast-growing species, which can result in reduced species richness at other disturbed sites.
When a site experienced a fire before biosolids were applied, plant growth following biosolids applications were reduced and shorter-lived as compared to unburned sites. Fire can have a destabilizing effect on soil structure and nutrients, and while the addition of biosolids likely aided in improving soil structure and nutrient retention on these sites, more frequent applications of biosolids may be needed to maintain plant growth on sites with a history of wildfire. Vegetative cover was found to have more positive responses to biosolids at warmer sites and when seeding was used in the reclamation process. Although seeding with biosolids application may maximize plant cover, with the potential for positive influences on species richness over time, the community trajectory of seeded communities may resemble that of the seed mix over the long term and the community may not experience the same successional patterns of nearby undegraded land.
Our research demonstrates the importance of identifying the priority of short- and long-term outcomes in any reclamation program. For example, short-term stabilization and soil rebuilding may conflict with establishment of species-diverse grasslands, especially where aggressive weeds are present. Thus, practitioners in different parts of the world must consider the prevailing climatic conditions, their site's history, and their choice of seed mixtures when considering land application of biosolids in grassland reclamation.
There is room for further research on the optimal reclamation strategy to boost all aspects of revegetation of degraded lands, including soil fauna and mycorrhizal associations. For example, many studies do not report specific data on how different species for functional groups respond to biosolids addition or the impacts on native plant communities. This information would be useful as we seek to discern what combination of native species and plant-functional groups would be complementary within the ecosystem.

Injecting drug addicts will be able to do so under medical supervision when the first facility for them opens in Dublin city centre by the end of this year.
The Health Service Executive announced on Friday that Merchants Quay Ireland (MQI), the voluntary organisation that helps people with addiction and accommodation issues, was the preferred bidder to operate the country's first medically supervised injecting facility.
The service will operate initially as a pilot project, that the HSE and Merchant's Quay hope to have running by the end of this year, subject to complying with all regulatory requirements, including planning if necessary.
Based on a survey of users of the needle exchange facility already provided by MQI,it is envisaged that 50 to 60 people a day could use the injection facility.
Addicts will be using illegal drugs they have obtained elsewhere. However, under the provisions of the Misuse of Drugs Act, possession of such drugs for consumption inside the facility will not be prosecuted.
The sale and/or supply of illegal drugs will remain illegal inside and outside the facility.
According to the HSE, the facility will not increase drug use in the area.
According to the HSE, a supervised injecting facility is "a clean, safe, healthcare environment where people can inject drugs, obtained elsewhere, under the supervision of trained health professionals".
"They offer a compassionate, person-centered service which reduces the harms associated with injecting drug use and can help people access appropriate services," the HSE says on its website.
Addicts using the facility, which typically involves a reception area together with an injecting room and a recovery room, will be given sterile injecting equipment. Counselling services will be there before and after injecting; emergency response in the event of overdose; and primary medical care.
By having a medically supervised facility, it is hoped to see a reduction in drug-related overdose deaths, the spread of disease through needle sharing, reduce the amount of spent needles in public places and create a route through which addicts become connected to the health service.
Tony Geoghegan, spokesman for MQI, said he wanted to work with the HSE, gardaí, Dublin City Council and the local community to ensure the pilot project was a success.
"With one person a day dying from a drug overdose, this is a real positive step in taking a proactive and progressive approach to drug policy. Truly it will save lives," he said.
Catherine Byrne, the Minister of State for the National Drugs Strategy, said the facility was an important initiative in responding to the reality of people injecting on the streets.
Dr Eamon Keenan, National Clinical Lead, HSE Addiction Services said, the selection of MQI followed "a robust procurement process" and would allow "a marginalised group of society, injecting drug users who may be homeless, to access a harm reduction service that will improve their health, access them into a range of medical and social services, and contribute towards a reduction in drug related deaths".
The plan is for MQI to run the pilot facility for 18 months under a licence granted under the Misuse of Drugs (Supervised Injection Facilities) Act 2017. MQI will be required to employ a community liaison worker "to engage local businesses, communities and residents in a meaningful manner".

Of course, the girl in question is Jenna Coleman, who obtained the tagline from her role as the Eleventh Doctor's companion in the beloved BBC series Doctor Who. Accompanying both Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi's Doctor, Jenna rose to fame as Clara Oswald, the witty school teacher with the ability to charm alien life forms in numerous universes.
THE TELEGRAPH – Towards the end of the first episode of The Cry, the BBC drama sent to fill the gaping Sunday night chasm left by Bodyguard, Jenna Coleman's character, Joanna – a mother suffering from postnatal depression whose baby son suddenly disappears – talks about what it is like having two faces: one to be scrutinised by the public, another that exists in private.
It is, of course, a terrible cliché for an interviewer to draw parallels between an actor and the character they are playing. But given our insatiable social-media-fuelled appetite for personal information (and the fact that Coleman has had her love life very publicly dissected), when I meet the 32-year-old in a London hotel, I feel vaguely justified in trying to do just that.
She smiles. "I guess there is that," she says. "I mean, I can definitely associate with that sensation of feeling… exposed." Coleman was once linked with Prince Harry after she was photographed talking to him at a polo match. She used to go out with Richard Madden, star of Bodyguard (yes, she watched it) and is now shacked up with Tom Hughes, who plays her on-screen husband in Victoria. So she knows a bit about having all eyes on her.
The twist in The Cry, Coleman points out, is that the mother, Joanna, hasn't signed up for anything like that. "She is a primary school teacher, who is quite shy, who is having to go through these horrific circumstances with all of these cameras pointed at her." She notes that in the novel on which the new four-part drama is based, by the Australian thriller writer Helen FitzGerald, Joanna describes "feeling like an animal in a zoo".
We now live in a world where every facial expression, every move, gets interpreted – and often as something that it isn't. Coleman asks if I have seen the Nosedive episode of Charlie Brooker's science fiction series Black Mirror, in which people give each other star ratings after every interaction.


"Divorce is a deeply personal, emotional, gut-wrenching experience. Everyone has their opinion. Such as, once you make a commitment, you stick with it. The worst thing you can do to your kids is divorce. You work it out, no matter what.
Despite being blasted for it at times, I disagree. Yes, divorce is awful, and you never want your children to experience the pain of a "broken" family. I wanted my marriage to last. I didn't go into it thinking, "Well, if it doesn't work out, we'll just get divorced." No, no, no. When I said, "I do," wanted it to be for life.


Last week, the European Commission launched its Action Plan for a European Capital Markets Union (CMU). By European standards, this 'most significant EU proposal for the last 10 years' has proceeded at rapid pace under the leadership of the British Commissioner Lord Hill. For those attuned to the complexities of European politics, the CMU is a peace offering from Brussels (Berlin/Frankfurt) designed to showcase the strategic benefits that UK (and its City) enjoys from EU membership. Its (referendum) politics aside, the CMU's ambitions are great: SME financing and job creation, growth via capital markets. Yet, we argue, if the CMU is to make a substantial and lasting contribution to investment and job creation in Europe, it must be accompanied by reforms that address systemic risk in securities-based financial systems and enhance pan-European supervision of securitization and repo markets.
The crisis of European banking after the collapse of Lehman was a crisis of market-based banking. European banks engaged in structured finance and other off-balance sheet activities were threatened by insolvency in 2008, leading to significant bail-out costs for European sovereigns. According to IMF research, 18 out of the 25 TBTF European banks vulnerable due to their trading activities required bailouts after 2008. Since, as the IMF put it, 'the vast majority of global finance is intermediated by a handful of large, complex financial institutions', initial regulatory efforts focused on reforming banks that had migrated to leveraged, interconnected, market-based activities. This also involved – through the FSB – global initiatives to curtail banks' involvement in shadow banking, particularly in securitization and repo markets.
In this context, it is remarkable to see the growing consensus that growth in Europe requires more market-based finance. The European Commission makes the following case: banks are still repairing balance sheets, new regulatory regimes increase their costs, making lending – to SMEs and other businesses – expensive. Allowing banks to engage more in capital market lending via securitisation, and to fund it in short-term money markets, would improve lending conditions in Europe, restarting growth. Those familiar with Perry Mehrling and Zoltan Pozsar's work will recognise this 'money market funding of capital market lending' as shadow banking.
U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) counts more than 6400 credit institutions, among them thousands of small, privately owned, regionally active community banks. Community banks provide almost half of all small business loans in the U.S. In addition to this, there are more than 6000 credit unions. Per 1 million citizens, there are more than 40 banks and credit unions in the U.S. Now compare this to Europe: Here, Germany is one of the few countries with a relatively high density of banks. There are nearly 23 banks, credit cooperatives and savings banks per 1 million [German] citizens.
First, it is of paramount importance that key principles of "good securitisation" are not watered-down through pressure from large, international banks. Insisting that banks have a "skin in the game" is meant to avoid the perverse incentives that led to the global financial crisis. At the levels discussed now, however, risk retention requirements are too small to matter. Similarly, ongoing industry pressure to include synthetic forms of securitization in the CMU framework completely undermines the key notion of "simple" securitisation. The current ambiguity on whether to allow tranching in the forms of securitisation that are to be deemed 'high quality' also severely undermines the notion of simple and transparent securitization – since tranching by its very nature renders securitized products complex and opaque. A sustainable CMU must stand firm on the core principles – allowing only truly simple securitization in the framework, and insisting on substantial risk retention on the part of issuers. If it does not, it risks undermining rather than enhancing prosperity and growth in Europe.
Second, the CMU is likely to further increase the systemic importance of large banks in capital markets. Until recently, regulators in Europe were contemplating banking separation reforms to address the problem of too-big-to-fail banks. With the CMU, TBTF banks are likely to become larger still, as they will play key roles in reviving securitisation as issuers and market-makers. For their market-making activities, banks rely on collateralized funding markets, where borrowing against collateral makes leverage cheapest. So when the CMU speaks of the importance of "collateral fluidity", it is essentially saying that we should ensure that collateral based funding for large banks remains unregulated although there is compelling evidence since the global financial crisis that banks run on each other in wholesale funding markets. Two implications result from this: (1) the sustainable CMU must abandon the notion of "freely flowing" collateral, instead adopting the (already watered down) minimum haircut requirements framework developed by the FSB and (2) serious banking separation reform must be pursued in parallel.
Third, regulators should take note that national supervisory regimes for capital markets are neither converging nor consistent. A pan-European agency that regulates European capital markets directly will be necessary to mitigate the cross-border nature of systemic risk in integrated capital markets, just as the Banking Union proved indispensable to adequately supervise large, cross-border European banks. Integrated capital markets are still vulnerable to sudden shifts in market liquidity, as the global financial crisis demonstrated that even very large markets can see liquidity evaporating rapidly. Without a pan-European regulator that can take countercyclical measures, it is difficult to see how systemic risks arising from European capital markets could be effectively addressed. An institutions-based regulatory regime – the one we have been building since 2008 – is ill suited to address (capital) market fragilities. A sustainable CMU must recognize that integrated capital markets cannot have segmented regulation.
Fourth, the action plan unveiled last week promotes a private Capital Markets Union. While the Commission has been reluctant to spell out the implications for government bond markets, it is important to recognize that the cornerstone of financial systems, government bond markets, have been (further) segmented by first the banking and then the sovereign debt crisis. Recent improvements are mainly due to the ECB's quantitative easing (QE) and OMT commitments. Yet such unconventional monetary policies are designed to be temporary, while Europe has seen growing pressures for revisiting the preferential regulatory treatment of government bonds. Alberto Giovannini, one of the early architects of the European financial architecture, reminds us that 'a very large proportion of the securities-based financial system requires means of transactions, and riskless government securities are best candidates'. How can capital markets function without risk-free sovereigns? Credit ratings and market liquidity will matter even more, thus sharpening the existing asymmetries between 'periphery' and 'core' (read Germany) governments. Since the latter are more inclined to run budget surpluses, the second answer is exactly what brought us the 2008 crisis of shadow banking: private sector takes over the provision of 'safe assets'. A sustainable CMU should aim to eradicate existing asymmetries in market liquidity so that integrated government bond markets support the convergence in the costs of market funding for businesses across Europe.

LAS VEGAS, Nevada -- James Packer, the high-profile casino investor scheduled to appear before Nevada casino regulators today, is selling tens of millions of dollars in assets after seeing his personal wealth halved last year.
The 41-year-old Australian billionaire is entertaining offers for his $50 million yacht and $38 million London apartment. He is also delaying delivery of a $60 million private jet and completion of a $3.7 million pool complex at his private residence north of Sydney, news outlets in Australia report.
Packer is also completing the sale of his family's Australian cattle ranches for nearly $425 million to a British private equity firm.
The moves are an attempt to satisfy cash demands of Packer's growing casino operations, The Australian, the country's national newspaper, reports.
The sell-offs come as Melbourne, Australia-based Crown Ltd. executives are scheduled to appear today before the Nevada Gaming Commission for final approval of the casino company's $1.8 billion buyout of the Cannery Casino Resorts.
Crown Chief Executive Officer Rowen Craigie told the Gaming Control Board on Jan. 7 that the company has enough cash on hand to pay for the Cannery acquisition.
The control board recommended approval of Crown's bid to purchase the locals casino company, which owns three casinos in Clark County and a fourth in Pennsylvania.
Control Board Chairman Dennis Neilander declined to comment, citing the pending hearing.
Crown, of which Packer is chairman and holds a 38 percent stake, owns and operates properties in Melbourne and Perth, Australia; the United Kingdom; British Columbia; Alberta; and Macau.
Crown shares dropped by more than 55 percent last year on the Australian Securities Exchange.

If you have visited my blog or read any of my posts before then I am sure that you will be well aware that I have a very unhealthy concealer addiction. I don't know what it is, but as soon as I discover a new concealer, I have to buy it and try it out almost immediately. So naturally, when I saw this Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer and I saw how much people seemed to love it, I had to try it out for myself. There was so much hype around this concealer and if all of the claims were true about it, I was sure that it was going to be my new favourite. I have been trailing this for a couple of months now and I am finally ready to write this review for you guys.
Even though I have wanted to try this Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer for such a long time, I decided to wait a while and try and check some other cheaper things out. I feel like at the minute I am spending an arm and a leg on makeup and I am trying to curb that expensive habit. I tried some supposed dupes for this product like the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer and I did like it, but I think that just made me want to try the Nars Concealer even more. In the end, I quickly caved and logged onto the House of Fraser website and ended up buying the Radiant Creamy concealer in the shade Custard.
To start with, I want to talk about the thing that I always talk about when it comes to reviews and that is the packaging. This Nars Concealer comes in a tube with a wand for application, like many other concealers on the market. I think that the packaging is lovely and sleek, and it does live up to the high price tag of the product. I will say that the packaging is similar to the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer with the kind of tube that it is in, but it just feels much more luxurious and, in a sense, more expensive. I also like that it has a doe-foot applicator because it is quick, easy to use and it feels nice on the skin.
I think that the shade range that Nars have in this concealer is just wonderful and I know that there are plans to extend the line even further. They cater to some of the lightest skin tones as well as some of the most beautiful deep shades. I have the shade Custard in this with is a light-yellow tone, which is incredibly for highlighting with. I am also planning on buying another that is a closer match to my foundation shade so that I can conceal areas around my face and blemishes with this concealer. I think that I can quite confidently say that if you wanted to buy this concealer you would be able to find your shade.
The consistency of this Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer is stunning and as the name suggests it is beautiful and creamy when you apply it to the skin. I like to go in with a really generous amount around my face and then I take my damp Beauty Blender and I push it into the skin and it looks so seamless and beautiful within an instant. I have paired this concealer with so many different foundations and I feel like it works well with everything that I use it with and it always blends in like an absolute dream. For this reason alone, it has become one of my favourite concealers from my collection.
The coverage that this concealer gives is very beautiful and full. The main area where I apply this where I have issues that I want to cover is underneath my eyes and when it is blended out, it covers everything absolutely perfectly. The good thing about this is because it is that because it is so pigmented, you only need a small amount to get a lovely full coverage look. Even my deepest areas of darkness around my eyes can be covered with this Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer.
The only thing about this concealer that I would change given the chance is that I wish the wand picked up more product as you bring it out of the tube. Whenever I reach for this and use it, I feel like I have to dip into the tube so many times to get the right amount of product. With products like the Tarte Shape Tape or Urban Decay Naked Weightless Concealer, I feel like they pick up the perfect amount of product to do the whole face without having to dip back into the tube.
I am sure from reading this review that you can already tell that I am in love with this Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer and I really enjoy reaching for it. The coverage is second to none, it blends into the skin like a dream and the shade range is just perfection. This has quickly become my most used concealer and I know that I am going to be reaching for it hell of a lot. I will leave a link to this down below in case you want to check it out for yourself. Make sure to leave me a comment and let me know if you have tried this product and tell me what you thought about it!

Picture the scene. A young man has been accused of a terrible murder simply because he lives in the locale and vaguely resembles the description of a man who was noted in the area. Yet he doesn't match the profile of a sadistic killer, has no misogynistic literature in his flat, and takes very good care of his faithful rescue dog.
Nevertheless, the police set a honeytrap to ensnare him, asking a policewoman to pretend to be his girlfriend. As the weeks go by, she tells him she'd be hugely sexually aroused if he'd admit to the brutal local murder. He doesn't, but the police arrest him anyway.
After many months in jail (and with his poor rescue dog languishing back in the pound) the case goes to court and the judge looks at the absence of evidence and at the completely unprofessional way this man has been treated. Understandably, he says there isn't a case to answer and throws it out of court.
Our unfairly jailed hero is now free – but do most true crime writers champion his release? No, instead they give the impression that he simply `got away with it' and they continue to harass him in print.
That man was Colin Stagg – and one of the few writers to come to his defence was the admirable David Kessler who collaborated with Colin to write a book on the subject called Who Really Killed Rachel? David, then, is one of the good guys in a genre that's often dominated by the bad.
The bad guys bring the genre into disrepute because they are willing to bastardise the truth. They do so because rumour and hearsay sometimes make for a more exciting story. Others lie when they can't find out the facts. Sometimes a true crime writer can't find – say – the killer's mother's name so he makes one up. Other writers come along, assume his is the definitive work, and also use the fictitious name. The same is true of ages, occupations, hobbies and various things that the killers, victims or witnesses allegedly said or did.
Other writers make assumptions to set the scene. One wrote of the `eerie silence' which surrounded the death house – but a little more research would have shown that the killer left his music system on at full blast, almost deafening the homicide team. Another named two children who killed and said they'd both had good guardians, whereas one of those guardians was known to the social services for beating the girl with a paddle whilst the other so controlled her sixteen year old son that she even accompanied him on the rare occasions when he had a date.
Sometimes bad things happen but it isn't the writer's fault. The late John Dunning, for example, used to legitimately buy the basis of his crime stories from an agency. One day he received a letter from another crime writer pointing out that his dates were often wrong. John checked with the agency– and they admitted that they'd thought modern crime stories sold better than older ones, so were adding twenty years to each date!
But the truly ugly crime writers are those who are simply in it for the money, who don't care about the genre or the readership. One reader told a magazine that he was part way through a true crime book on modern slavery when he realised that he was reading an excerpt from one of his favourite sadomasochistic novels. He contacted the novel publisher who said that they'd sue but I've no idea what happened next.
This author saw similar plagiarism when researching her true crime books Women Who Kill and Children Who Kill. Two encyclopaedia-style books contained numerous identical paragraphs. It seems that, in the mad rush to make a living, the actual desire to create something new is lost.
Sadly, it comes down to simple economics – if an author takes eighteen months to research and write a book, he get one advance but if he rushes out three books in that same time period, he gets three advances. So, at least in the short term, the bad author earns three times as much as the good.
Occasionally good writers are silenced because they get too close to the truth. This happened to Brian Masters, a crime writer of the highest integrity. I don't always agree with his slant on life, but his honesty and sheer hard work are never in dispute.
But the good true crime writer will always seek to understand these guys (and murderous women and children) because that's what the intelligent reader wants – genuine insight. Moreover, if we understand the roots of such multicides we can engineer an agenda for change.
Carol Anne Davis latest true crime book is Children Who Kill: Profiles Of Pre-teen & Teenage Killers which includes interviews with a leading children's rights broadcaster, an investigative journalist and the detective who put Britain's youngest serial killer behind bars.
