This definition applies to all payments.
Definition: member of a couple
A person is a member of a couple under the SSAct if they have a relationship with another person, where both people are over the age of consent (applicable to the relevant state or territory), are committed to each other on a permanent or indefinite basis, are not in a prohibited relationship (subsections 4(12) and 4(13)) and are either:
legally married, or
in a registered relationship (2.2.5.13), or
in a de facto relationship (2.2.5.10).
Note: On 8 December 2017, the Marriage Act 1961 was amended to redefine marriage as 'a union of 2 people' and introduced non-gendered language so that the requirements of the Act apply equally to all marriages. It also enabled same-sex marriages that have been, or will be, solemnised under the law of a foreign country to be recognised in Australia.
In determining if a person is in a member of a couple relationship, consideration must be given to the following 5 factors:
the financial aspects of the relationship,
the nature of the household,
the social aspects of the relationship,
any sexual relationship between the people, and
the nature of the people's commitment to each other.
The DSS Secretary can determine that a person should not be considered as a member of a couple for some income support payments (2.2.5.50).
Act reference: SSAct section 4(2) Member of a couple-general, section 4(3) Member of a couple-criteria for forming opinion about relationship, section 4(3A) The Secretary must not form the opinion…, section 4(6) Member of a couple-special excluding determination, section 4(6A) A person who…, section 24 Person may be treated as not being a member of a couple…

Coronavirus may have surfaced in Los Angeles just before Christmas – Fox News
The coronavirus may have been in Los Angeles around Christmas, before the novel coronavirus was officially identified in the United States, according to researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles, and the University of Washington.
The team of researchers discovered a spike in patients with acute respiratory failure and coughs at UCLA Health hospitals and clinics around late December 2019, when they analyzed health records, according to a press release from the university. The findings published in a report in the Journal of Medical Internet Research suggest that novel coronavirus may have been surfacing in the area months before the first case was officially identified.
Researchers said an increased number of patients with respiratory complaints starting in late December 2019 and continuing through February 2020 suggests SARS-CoV-2 community infections were present prior to official awareness of cases in the U.S. (iStock)
The team of researchers analyzed more than 10 million UCLA Health System outpatient, emergency department and hospital facility records between Dec. 1, 2019, and Feb. 29, 2020 – months just before there was an awareness of the presence of the novel coronavirus in the United States.
They discovered patients seeking treatment for coughs in the outpatient clinics "increased by over 50% and exceeded the average number of visits for the same complaint over the prior five years by more than 1,000," the study press release stated.
MUTATED FORM OF CORONAVIRUS MAY BE MORE CONTAGIOUS, BUT LESS DEADLY, EXPERTS SAY
The published report also noted an increase in patients seen in the emergency departments for complaints of coughs and acute respiratory failure.
"A significantly higher number of patients with respiratory complaints and diseases starting in late December 2019 and continuing through February 2020 suggests community spread of SARS-CoV-2 prior to established clinical awareness and testing capabilities," the study found.
The study authors also said their analysis demonstrated the significance of monitoring electronic health records (EHR) to identify population changes.
"This provides a case example of how health system analytics combined with EHR data can provide powerful and agile tools for identifying when future trends in patient populations are outside of the expected ranges."
SEVERITY OF CORONAVIRUS INFECTION MAY BE DETERMINED BY FACE MASK USE, STUDY SUGGESTS
Co-author of the study, Dr. Michael Pfeffer, chief information officer for UCLA Health said in the release, "Technology, including artificial intelligence powered by machine learning, has further potential to identify and track irregular changes in health data, including significant excesses of patients with specific disease-type presentations in the weeks or months prior to an outbreak."
By focusing not only on data from hospitals but also from outpatient settings, the researchers said it may help epidemiologists and health systems to detect future epidemics more quickly, the release said.
"For many diseases, data from the outpatient setting can provide an early warning to emergency departments and hospital intensive care units of what is to come," said lead author Dr. Joann Elmore, a professor of medicine in the division of general internal medicine and health services research at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA.
"We may never truly know if these excess patients represented early and undetected COVID-19 cases in our area," Elmore said. "But the lessons learned from this pandemic, paired with health care analytics that enable real-time surveillance of disease and symptoms, can potentially help us identify and track emerging outbreaks and future epidemics."

9 New Laws Will Taking Effect in Texas Sept. 1st
Big Ced
Big Ced Published: August 26, 2021
Texas will adopt new laws on September 1, and you're likely to be affected by at least one of them.
Some major laws have been changed due to the coronavirus pandemic and Winter Storm Uri, while others are related to guns, education, and medicinal marijuana.
Here are just a handful of laws set to take effect as we roll into September.
HB 1927 - Constitutional Carry
Texas residents over the age of 21 will now be able to carry handguns without a license.
Known as "constitutional carry," this law eliminates the requirement that individuals obtain a license (and undergo training and background checks as part of that process) to carry a handgun in public. However, federal law requires background checks when purchasing a firearm from a licensed dealer.
As long as Texans are not prohibited from possessing a firearm, they may carry pistols openly or concealed.
Texas does not require a license to carry long guns in public, including shotguns and rifles.
SB 8 - Anti-abortion legislation limits procedure to as early as 5 weeks
This new law, known as the "heartbeat bill," bans abortions when a fetal heartbeat can be detected, which can sometimes be as early as five weeks after a missed period.
Rape and incest victims are not exempt, so they must carry the pregnancy to term once a fetal heartbeat is detected.
Additionally, except for state and local government employees, any person in Texas can sue abortion providers or anyone they believe assisted a woman in obtaining an abortion. Providing transportation to a clinic could be part of that.
As part of the law, doctors are not allowed to perform abortions without first checking if a fetal heartbeat can be detected. The only exception to this rule is if a physician believes a medical emergency that makes abortion necessary.
HB 929 - Body-Worn Cameras
During investigations, police officers will now be required to wear their body cameras.
Former Dallas cop Amber Guyger, who currently serves a 10-year prison sentence for killing Botham Jean, was the inspiration for the law.
Previously, officers were permitted to turn off their cameras when in a "nonconfrontational" encounter with a person. However, officers must record any part of an investigation under the new law.
HB 1518 - Beer and Wine Sales on Sundays
On Sundays, Texans could not buy beer and wine until noon. The new law expands the hours of sale of beer and wine from 10 a.m. to Midnight.
Stores like grocers and gas stations will still be able to sell beer and wine from 7AM to midnight Monday through Friday, and 7AM to 1AM Saturday nights into Sunday morning.
HB 1239 - Churches Can't Be Closed
While churches have robust protections under state and federal law, they are not necessarily guaranteed special treatment during a public health crisis or in other matters of public safety.
Gov. Abbott's executive order on March 19, 2020 limited indoor gatherings to no more than 10 people, and churches were not explicitly exempt. As of March 31, Abbott's orders exempted essential services, including churches, but some local jurisdictions, such as Harris County, continued to include churches in their general stay-at-home orders.
According to the new law, places of worship cannot be ordered closed by government agencies or public officials for any reason - including during a disaster.
HB 3979 - Critical Race Theory
Texas is now among only a few states that ban the teaching of critical race theory, or more acutely, how race and racism have impacted U.S. social structures.
Under the new law, Texas students are required to learn a specific, limited list of topics and documents. Many educators and education advocacy groups have opposed the bill, claiming that it limits honest conversations about race and racism in American society. In addition, teachers are forbidden from giving extra credit to students who participate in civic activities that include political activism.
HB 1535 - Medical Marijuana
As a result of this expanded law dealing with the compassionate use of medical marijuana, hundreds of thousands more Texans will have access to low-THC cannabis.
Patients who have posttraumatic stress disorder, cancer patients, and other medical conditions approved for certain research programs will be able to access medical marijuana, and doctors will prescribe low-THC cannabis to qualified patients.
Additionally, THC dosages are now restricted to 1% instead of .5%. The medical marijuana laws in Texas remain among the most restrictive in the country, but supporters have made progress every session since 2015 when the legislation first passed.
SB 4 - Star-Spangled Banner Protection Act
In recent years, the Star-Spangled Banner has become a subject of debate, with athletes kneeling in protest of police brutality and some teams choosing not to play the national anthem before games. However, the new law will require professional sports teams with contracts with the state to play the anthem before every game. It's believed this legislation was inspired by Mavericks owner Marc Cuban choosing not to play the national anthem before home games.
HB 9 - Blocking Emergency Vehicles
If protesters block emergency vehicles with audible sirens and visual signals, such as flashing lights, they will face felony charges. Previously, the offense was a Class B misdemeanor. Congress passed the bill after protesters blocked roadways during nationwide protests prompted by the murder of George Floyd.
HB 1024 - Alcohol To Go
Gov. Greg Abbott initially waived regulations allowing restaurant alcohol delivery on March 18 to support the hospitality industry during the Coronavirus pandemic.
The Legislature codified this change. As a result, Texas businesses can offer pickup and delivery of beer, wine, and mixed drinks with food orders.
SB 2 and SB 3 - ERCOT
Texas legislators took action following Winter Storm Uri to address issues with the power grid, which ERCOT put under the microscope following the storm. Senate Bill 2 changes the composition of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, or ERCOT, board of directors and how its members are appointed. Senate Bill 3 will require power companies to upgrade their power plants and transmission lines to withstand more extreme weather conditions.
SB 968 - Vaccine Passports
Abbott signed the law in early June, and vaccination passports are now prohibited in the Lone Star State. Businesses cannot require customers to provide proof of vaccination. Otherwise, they violate the law. State contracts and grants will not be awarded to businesses that violate this ban.
More Could Be Coming
Texas' legislature is currently in a second special session called by Governor Abbott. The last special session failed to pass election laws due to many Democratic lawmakers leaving the state in protest.
The special session is prioritizing several initiatives, including those so-called "election integrity" bills. You can find a full list of what's on the agenda here.
10 Myths About Texas That Even Some Natives Believe
Everything's bigger in Texas, including the tall tales! Our state can seem pretty strange to people from far away, or even our immediate neighbors. There are several myths about Texas that range from quirky to fun and just plain ignorant and insulting, and even some people born and raised her believe 'em. Here are a few we can dispel today.

Q: Did Leta Lestrange sacrifice herself in order to protect one or even both of the Scamander brothers in The Crimes of Grindelwald? In order for the sacrificial protection to form, the victim must be given the option to live, but consciously chose death.
This is what Lily Potter did for Harry Potter. She was given the option to live (by Voldemort), but she consciously chose death.
In Crimes of Grindelwald, Gellert Grindelwald offers Leta Lestrange the option to join him and his cause instead of dying in the black fires of Protego Diabolica, but she chose to fight off Gellert Grindelwald knowing that she would die so that Theseus, Newt, and the others could escape and live.
Did Leta Lestrange sacrifice herself in order to form the sacrificial protection to protect one or even BOTH of the Scamander brothers in The Crimes of Grindelwald?

A: There's a couple of questions here to unpack
Did she sacrifice herself in order to form the sacrificial protection?
No. The magic that saves Harry is incredibly old, rare and largely unheard-of in the Wizarding World. Sufficiently so that Dumbledore has to basically piece together what the heck just happened after studying the scene extensively with his own near-unique abilities to detect and recreate magic.
It would seem highly unlikely that Leta, an indifferent Hogwarts student and a middle-ranking Ministry official would know of this magic, let alone be canny enough to use it.
Is the protection spell in evidence in the sequel?
There was no sign that the spell was working in the sequel, although we don't have proof-positive either way since Grindlewald didn't attempt to personally harm either brother, only capture them.
It remains to be seen whether a fourth film will be made in the series.

The most famous building in Tarrant Gunville is the one that isn't there; Eastbury, a country mansion built by Vanbrugh in the 18th century, and demolished before the century ended. Only one block and a gateway remains from a complex of buildings as big as Blenheim Palace.
The nave, aisles and south porch of St. Mary's church were built in the 14th century, the west tower in the 15th century with a partial rebuild in the 16th century. The remainder, and a general restoration, was undertaken by Wyatt in 1843-45. The oldest remnant in the church is some Norman arcading high in the south wall of the north aisle. The roof is of grey slates, probably Welsh.
2. The sundial marked on the porch.
3. The entrance archway may be Corallian oolite.
4. A magnified photo of the entrance archway oolite.
Flint and Upper Greensand dominate as building stones, banded in the 1st and second stages of the tower, but Greensand ashlar above.
The foundations of the tower are iron-rich sandstone, but are Greensand to the remainder of the church. The south aisle is late 14th century, flint and Greensand chequer; the chancel flint and Greensand chequer to match the south aisle, but dated 1843. The north aisle was originally 14th century, but the west end was changed in 1843. The old windows are of Upper Greensand, the 19th century replacements and repairs of Bath Stone.
4. To the right of the porch the walls of the south aisle are chequered Greensand and flint. The two square-headed windows are originally of Upper Greensand, with Bath Stone heads added in 1843.
5. The chancel walls match the south aisle, and the single lancet windows are of Bath Stone.
The 14th century south porch was built of Upper Greensand, with a sundial on the right. Upper Greensand was quarried on the south side of Shaftesbury. The iron-rich sandstone is fine-grained and could have been collected from boulders present in the Clay with Flints remaining on top of the Chalk downlands.
6. A stone tablet commemorating Thomas Daccomb dated 1567, with his arms above, has been reset in the 1843 wall. This tablet may be Corallian oolite.
8. A closer view of the vestry window.
9a. A magnified photo of the darker stone, judged to be the Wardour Main Building Stone, a glauconitic sandy limestone of Portland age.
11. The stair turret was added in 1843.
13. The arcades of the north aisle and the chancel arch are of Bath Stone oolite.
14. The south aisle arcades are also Bath Stone, as seen in the magnified photo 15.
7. This view from the north of the main church and the vestry shows the chequered walls of flint and Greensand, the buttresses of Upper Greensand, windows of Bath stone in the vestry and clerestory, and the square headed north aisle window of Upper Greensand repaired with a Bath Stone top.
9. The vestry door includes some older stone, bottom left possibly Chalk and the darker stone on the right as seen in magnified photo 9a.
10. The 15th century lower stages of the west tower are banded flint and Greensand over a heathstone plinth. The 16th century upper stage is Greensand ashlar.
12. A closer view of the dark brown, iron rich, fine grained foundations of the tower.
13a. The tower arch is also an oolite, but is probably Corallian.

EnerG2 Wins $21.3M in Stimulus Funding to Build Ultracapacitor Materials Plant in Oregon
Seattle-based EnerG2, an advanced materials startup focused on energy storage, has scored a $21.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to build a new manufacturing plant in Albany, OR. The funds are part of a total of $2.4 billion in federal stimulus grants announced today to speed up the manufacturing and development of next-generation batteries, energy storage technologies, and electric vehicle components. (Check out the map of all 48 awardees here.)
EnerG2, a University of Washington spinout, is developing novel nano-scale materials to make better ultracapacitors. These are devices that can store and release large amounts of energy much faster than conventional batteries, and with longer lifetimes. Ultracapacitors are typically used in electric and hybrid vehicles, forklifts, and cranes. Their performance depends on the materials used to make their electrodes—and that is where EnerG2 comes in with its unique concoction of synthetic carbon nanomaterials.
The U.S. Department of Energy has great interest in companies like EnerG2 that seek to improve energy storage and efficiency more broadly. That's partly because as more alternative energy sources come online, they will require technologies that can deal with the natural peaks and valleys of that kind of power generation.
"This is obviously an exciting turn of events for EnerG2," says Chris Wheaton, the company's co-founder and chief operating and financial officer. "It's a great confirmation of the role ultracapacitors can play in the automotive industry, as well as the role that materials science can play in helping the country achieve our energy efficiency goals for the future."
EnerG2 will work together with Oregon Freeze Dry, one of its manufacturing partners, to build the new plant, which Wheaton says will be the first in the world dedicated to commercial-scale production of high-performance synthetic carbon materials. Wheaton adds that construction is expected to take about 18 months, and the new plant should create 25 to 50 new jobs in Linn County, OR. As for why EnerG2 wants to build the plant in Oregon, he says, "[Oregon Freeze Dry] have both the skills and the land that make it an ideal place to situate this facility. They're already our partner."
Better ultracapacitors could potentially have a big impact on electric and hybrid vehicles. EnerG2 co-founder and CEO, Rick Luebbe, told me last fall that ultracapacitors could be used to get 150,000 miles out of a plug-in hybrid car battery. Wheaton says vehicles will use a combination of a battery and an ultracapacitor. The latter is used to accelerate the car and store braking energy, while the battery gives you longer driving range. "The ultracapacitor makes the whole system more efficient," Wheaton says. "It makes the battery last longer and not need to be as big and expensive."
EnerG2 is backed by OVP Venture Partners, Firelake Capital, Yaletown Venture Partners, WRF Capital, University of Washington, Washington Technology Center, the Sustainability Investment Fund, Northwest Energy Angels, and the Frontier Angel Fund. Back in October, the company raised $8.5 million led by OVP and Firelake. That funding round was augmented by an additional $2.5 million investment in June, which brought in Vancouver, BC-based Yaletown as a new investor.

« Lookalikes! Ravens @ Bengals Edition
Bengals 17 Ravens 7 (The WHICH TEAM IS THE BUNGLES, AGAIN? Game) »
Ravens (4-3) @ Bengals (5-2)
If the Ravens can go into Paul Brown Stadium and exact some revenge on the Bengals this week, they will force their hat back into the ring of serious AFC North contenders. Otherwise, they will have fallen effectively three games behind Cincinnati in the division, quite a mountain to climb with eight games remaining.
So, do the Ravens have what it takes to "man up" and emerge victorious in a venue that has been none too kind to them over the years? B'More's 34-3 win over the Ryan Fitzpatrick-led Bungles in 2008 was their first win at PBS since 2004, and they are just 2-4 in their last six in The Queen City. Quarterback Carson Palmer has owned the Ravens in his career, compiling a 7-3 record in 10 career starts.
As several have already pointed out, Cincy is starting to look like a "real" AFC North team – one that can run the ball and stop the run. The Bengals' Cedric Benson was the one to break the Ravens' streak of not allowing a 100-yard rusher the last time these teams met, when he went for 120 and a TD on 27 carries (4.4 ypc). They also held the Ravens to 82 yards on the ground. Still, the Ravens averaged 4.6 yards per carry, which hints that maybe they should have stuck with their ground attack a bit more. Especially considering it was Joe Flacco's worst game this season, as he threw for just 186 yards and added two interceptions for his 2009-low rating of 70.1.
Chad sent the Ravens' D a care package this week. The Nest sends one of our own to #85. In it he will find a new helmet (to replace the one Ray knocked off him), a ball gag, a straight jacket, and a nice pretty new "grill."
Joe Cool has bounced back nicely since getting shut down by Cincy, putting up back-to-back games of a 109.2 rating, and tossing three scores to go along with nary an interception against the capable (23rd) and strong (8th), respectively, defenses of Minnesota and Denver. Derrick Mason, who was held without a catch by Mike Zimmer's crew last month, has 11 catches for 137 yards and two touchdowns in the two games since.
Ray Rice has been the catalyst for the Ravens' offense of late, as the little RB that could (wow, that's terrible…come on, people…THIS MAN NEEDS A NICKNAME!) has averaged over 149 yards from scrimmage per game over the last four contests. Le'Ron "PAIN TRAIN" McClain had a season-high 31 yards on the ground against Denver, as Cam Cameron's offense showed that, as the weather is cooling, maybe they are starting to get back to the formula that produced so much success in 2008. The Ravens called more running plays than passing plays (35-27) for the first time since the San Diego game, and just the second time all season. This after three consecutive losses where the playcalling was extremely lopsided towards the pass, to the tune of 46-18 (@ Min), 33-18 (vs. Cin), and 49-17 (@ NE). Now, a factor that can't be overlooked was that the Ravens were playing with the lead for the entire game against Denver, but we would expect that the balance will continue this week. That is, as long as the rejuvenated defense can keep the score close, as Chicago was unable to do in Cincy two weeks ago, getting blown out 45-10.
Speaking of that rejuvenated defense, the Ravens' D needs to prove that last week was no fluke. Plenty of the pundits were quick to proclaim the Ravens' defense "back" after they dismantled and nearly shut out the previously high-flying Denver attack last week. However, to those of us who watch every game (twice), the Broncos' short-passing game was simply the perfect antidote for the problems we have seen with the purple defense all season. Namely, the fact that Kyle Orton threw the ball deep all of ONE time (while the game was in reach, anyway)…and on that ONE throw, there was of course, some laundry also thrown, as Dominique Foxworth was called for pass interference. Apparently Josh McDaniels didn't get the "just chuck it up" memo that Ravens' corners have been sending to every team this year, via game film. Carson Palmer is no Kyle Orton, and he will show no such mercy to Foxworth and Fabian Washington, especially with the ever dangerous Chad Ochocinco and Chris Henry in his arsenal.
This isn't to suggest that Foxworth and Washington have no prayer of having good games Sunday. The two played very well against Denver, lack of deep challenges notwithstanding, and Washington especially was extremely active in run support. It's just that we Ravens fans need to see more of what we witnessed from the pair against Brandon Marshall and Eddie Royal before we are comfortable putting the Pepto Bismol bottle down when we see opposing quarterbacks take 7-step drops.
The front seven will also need to continue their solid play from a week ago. Haloti Ngata, Kelly Gregg, Justin Bannan, and Trevor Pryce collapsed the pocket on Orton the likes of which we haven't seen all season, and Greg Mattison's blitzes, when called, found gaping holes in the Broncos' protection schemes. It was a welcome departure from what we had seen to that point, but like the secondary, consistency is the word. Haloti Ngata is still very questionable with the ankle sprain he suffered near the goalline against Denver, and his absence would be noticeable, especially as the Ravens attempt to keep Benson from going over the century mark again. If Haloti is unable to go, the Ravens' ample depth at DL will have to step up, including Brandon McKinney, Dwan Edwards, and potentially Kelly Talavou, who has been active just once in 2009.
The Bengals have been doing a very impressive job of keeping Palmer upright, as he has been sacked only 11 times, good for 6th in the NFL. By comparison, Flacco has been sacked just 12 times. Rookie offensive tackle Andre "Yip Yip Belly" Smith may see his first game action, though he is said to be expected to mostly play on running downs. If nothing else, this could give the Ravens an advantage in reading the plays pre-snap.
A loss in Cincy on Sunday would, in all likelihood, relegate the Ravens to chasing a Wild-Card berth. Week 9 just seems too soon for that for such a talented football team, one that is legitimately a Top-8 NFL squad. The difference will be the explosiveness of Ray Rice, Joe Flacco continuing to find Kelley Washington for key 3rd-down conversions, and a Ravens defense that is ready to build on what they started last week.

Hey NESTMINDER or NICK-A-WHAT explain the graphic! NICKAPLEASE.
Edit: Fixed
Also Go Eagles because Harbaugh really ripped the Cowboys in a new book about the Eagles. He said "The Cowboys are what's wrong with the NFL" Can they trade the Redskins and the Ravens and put the Ravens in the NFC East? What our coach said would be awesome bulletin board material. Too bad we don't play Dem Cowboys until 2012 or if the Ravens play the Cowboys in the Super Bowl. Which is kinda funny because the last time the Cowboys won a playoff game Joe Flacco and Ray Rice were in elementary school.

Also the Ravens are 3-0 against the Cowboys including one shutout. But at least the Jerrydome still has the biggest jumbotron in America.

La Merina de Grazalema es una raza ovina española que recibe su nombre de su antecesor inmediato, el Merino, y del municipio andaluz de Grazalema, en la provincia de Cádiz. Su distribución geográfica se limita a la Sierra de Grazalema, la Serranía de Ronda y la Sierra de Huelva, zonas de elevada altitud y pluviosidad. Está incluida en el Catálogo Oficial de Razas de Ganado de España en el grupo de razas autóctonas en peligro de extinción.

Características

Su peso oscila entre los 75 y 85 kg. en los carneros y entre los 40 y 50 kg. en las hembras. Tanto los machos como las hembras pueden tener cornamenta. Cuando aparece en los machos presenta un gran desarrollo, mientras que en las hembras es menos frecuente y la selección tiende a eliminarla.

Productos derivados

Los rebaños son de unas cien ovejas, que con frecuencia incorporan cabras, que salen a pastar en régimen semi-extensivo, bajo la custodia permanente del pastor y de sus perros. Se cría para la obtención de lana y carne. El color de las ovejas es variable y el vellón de lana es entrefina y homogénea, usándose tradicionalmente en la industria textil para la producción de la manta de Grazalema.

Can your fire doors handle the heat?
Fire doors are one of the most critical elements of passive fire protection used to slow down the spread of fire, however they remain a significant area of neglect.
Many people do not understand their responsibilities when it comes to fire safety, causing regular prosecutions, injuries and even deaths. According to the Home Office, there were 321 fire-related fatalities in England in 2017. Business owners, landlords and building managers all have a responsibility under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 to ensure that their staff and visitors are safe. If fire safety regulations are not followed, people can face major penalties that include unlimited fines and up to two years in prison.
According to Fire Door Safety Week, around three million fire doors are bought and installed every year in the UK, but to save lives they must work properly. Fire doors are part of a building's passive fire protection system, an essential requirement for all public buildings, offices and factories. In everyday use a fire door is just as any other door. However, in the event of a fire, the fire door must perform its prime purpose – to protect lives and offer protection to the building and buildings that surround it.
Are you confident that you have taken all the steps to ensure that your doors meet regulations and will help to save lives in your building?
How to tell that a door is a fire door?
Research carried out by IronmongeryDirect, revealed that almost 1 in 2 people do not know how to identify a fire door. 70% also admitted that they wouldn't know who to contact if they noticed a problem with a fire door. Fire Door Safety Week have provided a helpful 5 Step Check to determine if a door is a fire door. If you think the building you're living in, working in or visiting has a faulty fire door, don't walk by. Report it to whoever manages or owns the building.
By giving the lock on your door additional protection you can ensure smoke and fire are not able to travel through any lock installation gaps.
Codelocks Original Fire Kits* can easily be fitted to new and existing Codelocks mechanical and electronic latch locks and installations. Codelocks Smart Fire Kits** can be easily fitted to new and existing Codelocks smart latch locks; CL4510 and CL5510. Using intumescent strips and tubes that are designed to expand when exposed to extreme temperatures, the Codelocks Fire Kits provides locks with 30 or 60 minutes fire protection, depending on the door type, by sealing any gaps around the latch. In the event of a fire, the expansion of the strips protects the latch, filling any apertures and stops smoke escaping and flames spreading. Containing the fire gives people more time to be safely evacuated and allows fire fighters time to tackle the blaze.
Codelocks Fire Kits are designed with self-adhesive pads that are specifically pre-shaped and cut to suit each fixing of the latch, promising a seamless installation. Codelocks Fire Kits, used with a compatible Codelocks latch lock on an appropriate timber fire door, will give 30 or 60 minutes fire protection in accordance with BS EN 1634-1:2008.

Bubbles beautify your aquarium display, improve water quality, and make it more hospitable for aquarium inhabitants. In addition to providing oxygen for fish to breathe, aeration devices play a vital role in maintaining efficient biological filtration. Aquarium biological filtration relies primarily on aerobic beneficial bacteria to break down nitrogenous waste materials. Without a steady supply of fresh oxygen, harmful gasses and chemicals can quickly accumulate to create a toxic environment.
Water with low oxygen content is more common and dangerous to aquarium inhabitants than often realized. Fortunately, the use of aeration devices like air pumps and airstones are an easy and effective way to replenish and maintain healthy oxygen levels.
Pet Fish For Sale offers a vast selection of Aquarium Filters and Pumps to keep your beautiful pet fish healthy and happy for years to come.


To be the best person on the job site, you not only need to bring the best tools but you also want tools that are easy to tear down when the job is complete. The DC-20WH is a portable tool that's intended for effortless heavy-duty applications on vertical and horizontal rebar cutting applications. This portable rebar tool weighs 25.5 pounds and can cut up to ¾ inch #6 rebar Grade 60. Cutting speed is 3 seconds with the pressure of 15 tons, and the tool is 115 volt. Below we're breaking down how to tear down the DC-20WH rebar cutter so that you can keep your tool in tip-top shape!
First, you will begin by removing the two Phillips head screws to release the fin from the back of the unit and gently pry free. Next, remove the brush caps with a flat head screwdriver, then simply remove the spring loaded brushes. Once that is complete remove the motor housing, start by completely removing the front two bolts then just back off the rear two so the handle is loose.
Now, remove the four bolts that secure the motor housing to the pump case. Make sure that you have something to catch the oil as the unit will begin to discharge. To release the motor housing, grab the handle and with a flat head screwdriver, pry it from the pump case. Be cautious not to damage the fan, then the unit should just slide off. Make sure to inspect the armature for damage to ensure that there are no large gaps. Also, check the plastic fan for cracks.
Next you will work on separating the pump case from the cylinder. It's very helpful to have this Ramset ring for this procedure. You can purchase this tool from us. The part number is 1C0232. This will work for the DC-20WH and the XH. We also have other size Ramset rings for other tools we sell. With the proper Ramset ring at the ready, take a metal hammer and tap on the oil bolt. Continue to do so until you see the black pump head seals. Go far enough to be able to insert your Ramset ring.
The unit is spring loaded, so be sure to keep pressure on the pump case as you rotate the first half of the Ramset ring. Slip the other half in and secure with the supplied bolt clamps. Make sure the clamps are tight, and then you can simply release the pump from the unit. Remove the armature from the pump case by using a rubber or plastic mallet. Inspect the camshaft for damage. Sometimes a needle bearing inside the cylinder will break, causing damage to the cam.
This is the first phase in separating the cylinder from the front housing. It's crucial that the airtight bag at the front of the unit stays clear of debris. Often, mortar or dirt will get into that area. If not kept clean, it could cause damage to the unit. Now, remove the cutting blocks, and always replace if they are cracked or heavily worn. There are eight cutting sides to the cutting blocks. If they get worn, simply rotate and/or flip.
Next, begin removing all the bolts from the front housing. Your air or power tool may not have enough torque, so you can use a six millimeter Allen wrench with a cheater bar for extra leverage. Once the bolts are loose you can use a power driver to finish removing. Remove all of the bolts except for the last one. Make sure that the piston is in good condition. You can even polish it up to make sure there are no burs or hang ups when the piston retracts. When removing the final bolt, be sure to put your hand on the back of the unit so it doesn't drop to the floor as it's spring loaded.
When the final bolt is removed, slowly separate the two pieces. Be advised that sometimes the piston will stay inside the housing. Just be cautious that it doesn't fall to the floor. When removing the piston, be sure to take it out straight so that it does not jam up and cause problems. Be sure to closely inspect the piston for any hairline fractures. It's now time to inspect the cylinder for any damage. It's worth noting that if the correct hydraulic oil has not been used it can break down the seal and over time it will disintegrate causing metal to rub on metal.
First, start by removing the snap ring and washer, the needle bearing, and then the Ramset ring. Now, remove the three Rams, springs and delivery valves. By the way, all of these parts come with our rebuild kit. After you've removed the components out of the cylinder, you'll want to inspect the bearing. If it doesn't want to easily pop out and is free spinning, we recommend leaving it alone.
Remove the gasket and replace the stopper bolt if it looks worn. Next, you'll want to remove the airbag. Start by taking a large Phillips head screwdriver and give it a tap to release any debris that may have gotten into the grooves. Loosen and then take a pair of needle-nose pliers and pull out the bag from the unit.
To remove the inner seal, simply take a flathead screwdriver and from the rear of the unit gently tap to get underneath the seal. Then, lift up and remove. Finally, pivot the unit and allow any remaining oil to drain.

Matt Dowgiallo leads his group of Goblins to success
Allison Case, Staff Writer
For the majority of male college students, life consists of video games, football and girls. Le Moyne junior Matt Dowgiallo has another thing in his life that is even more important: Ultimate Frisbee.
Ultimate Frisbee is the third fastest rising sport in the United States, behind only triathlon and lacrosse. Ultimate requires stamina, endurance and speed, combining certain aspects of soccer and football. Frisbee has swept its way across the country, through both colleges and high schools alike, with Le Moyne College being no exception.
Since the club's introduction, Le Moyne's Ultimate Frisbee club — known as the Green Goblins — has been led by Dowgiallo and fellow juniors Murphy Swain and Jack Dunbar. The club now travels across New York state to compete in Ultimate Frisbee tournaments year-round.
Dowgiallo's love for Frisbee urged him to create the Goblins, transforming them into a group of committed Ultimate players. His dedication introduced "Frisbee Fridays" to the Le Moyne campus.
"Frisbee Friday is a day when the whole club can decompress after a long week by playing pick-up Frisbee," Dowgiallo explained. "We go a lot less strict on the rules of the game and make sure that everyone has a good time."
Frisbee Fridays have become something everyone looks forward to, especially Dowgiallo. Students can go play for fun to celebrate the end of a stressful college week and take their mind off of school. They have also created a stronger team dynamic.
"Usually, after a couple of hours playing, the team goes to dinner together," he said. Because of this "family dinner" and because of Dowgiallo's fun view on the sport the team has become much closer.
Dowgiallo began playing Frisbee his freshman year in high school after a friend suggested he come try out the sport. This became a tradition for him and the more he played, the more he began to love Frisbee.
"My best friend in middle school got me into ultimate and it just stuck with me," Dowgiallo said about his beginning days as an Ultimate Frisbee player.
Six years and hundreds of hours of practice later, Dowgiallo has continued to play Ultimate and improves every day. He can throw long-range hucks downfield, play tough defense and compete with some of the most talented and athletic Frisbee players around.
As co-captain of the Green Goblins, Dowgiallo's main goal is to have fun, but he still focuses on improving everyone's skills and team unity to help the team improve as a whole.
"The most important part of Frisbee is cooperation between teammates," he said. "If people are not on the same page, the team will not do well."
The team, consisting of both men and women, allows everyone to equally participate in playing time, no matter the skill level. Everyone gets a chance to play in games and practices so they can keep improving and enjoy themselves.
The Green Goblins have been to three tournaments this fall semester, always playing excellent Frisbee and competing with high level teams from all across the state. The Goblins have not yet won a tournament, but they still play the sport to the best of their ability.
To Dowgiallo, Frisbee is not just a game, but a necessity in his life.
"It keeps me in shape as well, but no matter what, Ultimate always gives me the escape I need," he said.
Six years ago, Matthew Dowgiallo was just a small high school freshman looking for something to do. Today, he is a leader of an up-and-coming sports team at Le Moyne College. He is a determined junior looking to have fun and stay active. He finally knows what he was born to do: Play Ultimate Frisbee.

Women's rights have no country
There is no blueprint for holding fast against the arguments used to dismiss women's humanity, or defending our hard won human rights. It's time to meet, to brainstorm and try new formats.
Anne Marie Goetz Joanne Sandler
At the 2012 Forum of the Association of Women's Rights for Development (AWID) in Istanbul, there were heated discussions about whether to lobby for a Fifth World Conference on Women in 2015. The majority of older generation feminists taking part expressed reluctance. A young Turkish feminist took the floor and challenged us, essentially saying: "It's fine for those of you who had the chance to go to Beijing and Nairobi to decline this opportunity. But what about my generation? We never had the chance to mobilize the way that you did. We need this!"
The 1995 Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing – including the official governmental meeting and its parallel NGO Forum – is widely hailed as a watershed. We both attended the NGO Forum, held in Huairou, a town an hour north of Beijing. In a deeply muddy field, covered in makeshift tents to ward off the insistent rain, with hundreds of yards of garlands made of discarded plastic water bottles festooning the few hastily erected buildings in which the concrete had barely dried, 40,000 women from civil society around the world converged to make history. And they did. In spite of being accommodated at such a great distance from the official event, women from NGOs and networks joined their allies on official delegations to make sure that the final Platform for Action fought off attacks from the Vatican, from Iran and from a host of others who lobbied to diminish commitments to women's equality and freedoms. We left with a sense of purpose and a roadmap to gender equality: the Beijing Platform for Action.

In 2012 the UN briefly debated a proposal to hold a Fifth World Conference on Women, as a twenty- year follow up to the 1995 Beijing Conference. It would have been held in 2015, forty years after the UN's First World Conference on Women held in Mexico City.
Turkey and Qatar both offered to host. The Secretary General asked UN member states what they thought - should there be a follow-up to the Platform for Action agreed at Beijing? It has become relatively routine to hold these international meetings to review and then advance achievements in a range of human rights or environmental protection areas. For instance, the 2012 UN Conference on Sustainable Development was a 20 year follow up on the 1992 Rio Earth Summit.
Many experienced women's rights advocates breathed a sigh of relief when UN Member States failed to pass a resolution in favour of holding a Fifth World Conference and, instead, recommended that 2015 should focus on (yet) another review of Beijing commitments. Beijing +20 follows other five-year reviews which have, at best, been lackluster, and could not replace the galvanizing force and visibility of a UN World Conference. The cautions against advocating for a new World Conference were made on the following grounds:
It is far too dangerous now to re-open international agreements on women's rights. Powerful governments and non-state actors today actively obstruct efforts to advance neglected areas of women's rights such as sexual and reproductive freedoms, and for this reason there was no 20th anniversary conference to advance the agreements made at the Cairo International Conference on Population and Development. The power of these reactionary forces in an international forum is considerable; they could seriously reverse progress made at Beijing.
So many of the commitments in the Beijing Platform have yet to be implemented - for instance the commitment to increase the proportion of seats held by women in governments to a minimum of 30%, or to put an end to female genital mutilation, or to cut military expenditures. An international conference will be a distraction. Let's just focus on national and local-level implementation.
Money! Women's organizations are starving for money as it is. An international meeting is expensive and unnecessary in the age of 'Skype' and other electronic meeting venues.
So there will be no Fifth World Conference on Women in 2015.
This decision could be exceptionally damaging in terms of its potential impact on international and domestic women's movements. But it is not irreversible. There can be one in 2020. Or whenever the women of the world want it to happen.
We agree with those who highlight the real threat of losing ground on women's rights. But let us think beyond the usual approach to these global inter-governmental meetings. The time has come to try a different format. We do not have a blueprint to hand, but there are options worth exploring. The Fifth Conference could focus on innovation in implementation, and could generate pledges for significant national investments in gender equality. It could focus on the growing frequency and ferocity of attacks on women human rights defenders, and on effective strategies and commitments to end such attacks. The Fifth Conference could focus on a much deeper exchange between civil society and governments than has ever happened before. Its agenda and priorities could evolve from a bottom-up, inclusive process that engages millions of women and men.

There is surely more to gain than to lose in holding a Fifth World Conference on Women in 2020. At the same time, we need to negotiate conditions that will help expand, not shrink, the women's rights agenda:
We are not proposing a re-run of Beijing. We need to re-think the way that UN world conferences are undertaken anyway. An international conference does not axiomatically have to arrive at a consensus document. There is no need to fetishize consensus. Women's rights cannot be sacrificed to international agreement if that means lowering standards even further than they are. It should be possible, through global brainstorming, to come up with an agenda that builds awareness amongst even the most reactionary governments of the strength and determination of the global women's rights constituency, and that raises the costs - both in the relations between states and in regional and international institutions - of domestic suppression of women's rights.
No United Nations Women's World Conference has yet been held in the era of social media. In 1995 at Beijing, few had access to email, let alone the kind of instant commentary and feedback available now. Social media would expose to domestic and international scrutiny the reactionary positions of some governments. Democracies would have to think twice before refusing to support terminations for pregnancies of women raped by soldiers during conflict, or the rights of same-sex couples to inheritance, or the rights of adolescents to the kind of education that can prevent HIV infection and early pregnancy.
Young women and men have not had a chance to engage in this type of transnational feminism. This would be the chance for a new generation to take leadership. Younger feminists would have the opportunity to organize locally and connect globally and contribute to reviving women's movements in many countries and regions.
Women from countries under conservative governments need an opportunity to be heard around the world. If a world conference were to be held in countries or regions increasingly dominated by fundamentalist religious interests, it would be an opportunity for women to express their perspectives about the use of religion or culture to excuse repression and extreme violence.
2020 will mark five years from the time that the new set of globally-agreed Sustainable Development Goals come into force. This could be an ideal moment for a World Women's Conference, an opportunity for a diversity of women's voices and views to assess how the first 5 years are going from our perspective, and whether progress is happening in ways women feel are most important.
For many, an international women's conference feels like an unwarranted extravagance. Yes, these meetings can be expensive; but the cost of gender inequality is much higher, and the benefits to democracy, development, and peace of reduced gender inequality, and increasing the strength of the women's movement, are massive. These meetings also yield resources. They provide women's organizations with opportunities to prove their relevance and to raise funds. You can't put a monetary value on international solidarity. And you can't deny its importance to women's mobilization domestically and internationally.
At the time of Beijing +15, Sunila Abeysekera, the Sri Lankan women's human rights champion and peace leader who died last year, pointed out in an article on openDemocracy 50.50 that there was no mechanism for joining together "around the key challenges and demands of women from around the world, irrespective of their class, race or any other status, to combat the challenges of discrimination and violence they confront on a daily basis" and she encouraged that we move "beyond…narrow divisions to build a cohesive platform for action for women's movements worldwide to confront and combat the common challenges…" That is what a world conference on women's rights can do that no other venue will allow: update and strengthen a common platform between women's movements and networks in different countries and regions that creates opportunities for partnerships and agreements with, and between, governments and inter-governmental organizations.

Women's human rights have no country. There is no champion state making sure that women's human rights are advanced. The common ground that those committed to working for gender equality have is each other. And a great way to find each other is on the crowded fields - however muddy - of international meetings and the local, national and regional preparatory processes that lead to them. We use this ground to marvel at the arguments used to dismiss our humanity, and then not only hold fast against these attacks, but keep pushing to make it the 'new normal' that yes, women are human, fully equal, and must live without fear, pain, and prescriptions as to who they should be and how they should behave.
The starting point for any agreement to hold a Fifth World Conference on Women must be that there can be no re-opening of past agreements or looking back to question existing commitments. We all have to look forward, for there is still so much to be done.

Success! Ormnai from Tanzania raised $838 to fund orthopedic surgery.
$838 raised, $0 to go
Ormnai's treatment was fully funded on August 10, 2019.
Ormnai's story
Ormnai's update
Ormnai underwent orthopedic surgery.
Surgery was successful!
Ormanai says, "I am so happy my leg has been treated am looking forward to having my cast removed and walking again but this time with ease and with no more pain. Thank you very much."

Ormnai is a young student from Tanzania. He was diagnosed with genu valgus. His legs bow inward so that his knees touch. This condition is typically caused by an excessive accumulation of fluoride in the bones, which often stems from contaminated drinking water. As a result, he cannot for long distances without pain.
Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare, is requesting $940 to fund corrective surgery for Ormnai. The procedure is scheduled to take place on July 4. Treatment will hopefully restore Ormnai's mobility, allow him to participate in a variety of activities, and greatly decrease his risk of future complications.
Ormnai's father says, "My son's legs are worsening am afraid he won't be able to walk if not treated please help my son am unable to afford the cost."

Fluorosis - Genu Valgus / Varus
On average, it costs $838 for Ormnai's treatment
Impact on patient's life
Cultural or regional significance
What kinds of symptoms do patients experience before receiving treatment?
Patients with genu valgum (or "knock-knees") have knees that bend inward and cause an abnormal walking gait. Patients with genu varum (or bowleggedness) have knees that bend outward and cause knee or hip pain and reduced range of motion in the hips.
What is the impact on patients' lives of living with these conditions?
The patient's mobility is hindered, which can prevent the patient from making a living through physical labor. The patient may also develop arthritis later in life.
What cultural or regional factors affect the treatment of these conditions?
In the United States, supplemental fluoride is added to the water to improve dental health. However, in areas of northern Tanzania, there is too much naturally-occurring fluoride in the water, which causes bone curvature.
Risks and side-effects
What does the treatment process look like?
After surgery, the patient will stay in the hospital for 4-5 days. During this time, the surgical wound will be monitored for swelling and infection. The patient will complete physiotherapy to help him or her walk or move the limbs. A series of X-rays will be performed over several months to monitor the healing process.
What is the impact of this treatment on the patient's life?
The bones and joints will be aligned, and long-term disability will be prevented.
What potential side effects or risks come with this treatment?
This procedure is not risky, but it is time-consuming. The rehabilitation process can take several months.
How accessible is treatment in the area? What is the typical journey like for a patient to receive care?
Care is not easily accessible. Most patients live in remote, rural areas and are identified through mobile outreach. The pediatric surgical program at Arusha Lutheran Medical Centre was started to meet the large burden of pediatric disability in the region.
What are the alternatives to this treatment?
There are no alternatives. Although some cases can heal on their own, the patients submitted to Watsi require dedicated treatment.

Nazario is a bus conductor from Uganda who came to our facility with complaints of left popliteal swelling that has affected him for six months. The painful cyst limits his ability to move especially at work where he is a bus conductor. Nazario has tried seeking treatment previously unsuccessfully. As the pain persisted and became severe, Nazario opted to come to our facility and had a cyst diagnosis. Surgery has been recommended to excise the cyst. Unfortunately, Nazario is not able to raise the total funds required for his surgery. If not treated, he will continue experiencing pain and walk with difficulty. The father of four children ekes out a living as a bus conductor while his wife is a peasant farmer. Their income is only sufficient to meet the family's basic needs. On December 31st, surgeons will remove the mass. Now, Nazario needs help to raise $187 to fund this procedure. Nazario says ,"I am more optimistic to getting better after my surgery."

Joseph is a young boy from Kenya who was diagnosed with a left inguinal hernia in November. His mother who was giving him a bath noted the abnormal swelling. With the swell being persistent, a scan was done and revealed a left inguinal hernia. This is a condition that occurs when tissue, such as part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles. If not treated, Joseph is at a risk of suffering strangulation which can potentially restrict blood flow to the body tissue and result in gangrene. Joseph's mother is a housewife while his father is employed as a tout. With a very menial income, the young parents are not able to raise the funds needed. They do not have medical insurance and lack funds to pay for the surgery. Our medical partner, African Mission Healthcare Foundation, is requesting $423 to fund Joseph's surgery. Once completed, this procedure will hopefully allow him to live more comfortably.

Q: Two Dimension Heat Equation ADI Local Truncation Error Given a two dimensional heat equation $\displaystyle \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}=K(\frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2}+\frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial y^2})$ solved using ADI (the alternating-direction implicit method) which is described by
$\displaystyle \frac{w_{k,j}^{n+\frac{1}{2}}-w_{k,j}^n}{\tau}=\frac{K}{2h^2}(\delta^2_xw_{k,j}^{n+\frac{1}{2}}+\delta^2_yw_{k,j}^{n})$ and
$\displaystyle \frac{w_{k,j}^{n+1}-w_{k,j}^{n+\frac{1}{2}}}{\tau}=\frac{K}{2h^2}(\delta^2_xw_{k,j}^{n+\frac{1}{2}}+\delta^2_yw_{k,j}^{n+1})$.
I am required to find the local truncation error of this method, by summing the two equations and then subtracting the second from the first I arrive at an equation which coincides with the Crank-Nicholson method with an extra term. I know that Crank-Nicholson has error $O(\tau^2+h^2)$ so must calculate the error of the extra term, which is
$\displaystyle \frac{K^2\tau}{4h^4}\delta^2_x\delta^2_y(w_{k,j}^n-w_{k,j}^{n+1})$.
I have calculated the necessary Taylor series and found
$\displaystyle \frac{1}{h^4}\delta^2_x\delta^2_yu_{k,j}^n=u_{xxyy}(x_k,y_j,t_n)+O(h^2) $ and
$\displaystyle \frac{1}{h^4}\delta^2_x\delta^2_yu_{k,j}^{n+1}=u_{xxyy}(x_k,y_j,t_{n+1})+O(h^2) $.
In the model solution the next step is to say
$\displaystyle \frac{K^2\tau}{4h^4}\delta^2_x\delta^2_y(u_{k,j}^n-u_{k,j}^{n+1})=\frac{K^2\tau^2}{4}(u_{xxyyt}(x_k,y_j,t_n)+O(\tau))+O(\tau h^2)=O(\tau^2)$.
I don't understand this final step. I can follow the first equality, but then I would have thought this was equal to $O(\tau^3)+O(\tau h^2)$. Can somebody explain why it is in fact equal to $O(\tau^2)$?
Thanks
By the way, $\delta_x^2 w_{k,j}=w_{k+1,j}-2w_{k,j}+w_{k-1,j}$.

A: The error is $O(\tau^3)+O(\tau^2)+O(\tau h^2)=O(\tau^2)+O(\tau h^2)=O(\tau^2)$ as that is of the smallest degree.
