While travelling, you don't want to be wondering if your home security system is working, is your pet in good care and similar things. In order to truly relax and enjoy your trip, there are a few things you should do before flying abroad.
Paperwork. Go through all the documents you need for the trip – passport, driving license, hotel confirmation, boarding pass, etc. and make sure that all are valid and up-to-date. Pack them in a plastic bag to keep them safe from potential spillages and make copies to be covered in the event your bag gets lost or stolen. But be sure to keep the copies elsewhere, not the same bag as the originals. Also, write down contact numbers for the British embassy, emergency, police, etc. in case you urgently need to contact them but cannot access the Internet to look up their phone numbers.
Some more paperwork. In addition to taking care of the documents you need for the trip, you should also take care of travel insurance and the EHIC to be covered in case you need medical assistance while abroad. The EHIC (short for European Health Insurance Card) offers free or subsidised medical care in Europe and it's free! But the card can take up to 7 days to arrive, so be sure to apply for EHIC at least 10 days before your departure. Also, the EHIC may not cover for everything and it definitely doesn't cover for lost baggage, flight delays, etc. So it's high recommended to get a travel insurance as well.
Vaccinations, medications and other medical treatments. The EHIC and travel insurance provide access to free/subsidised medical care while abroad but you are highly recommended to take care of any medical needs before travelling, ideally, a few days or weeks in advance if possible. Why? Because you don't want to spend your vacation in healthcare/medical centres possibly waiting for hours for something you could have get over with in a few minutes at your surgery.
Pets, houseplants, kids. If you are leaving behind a pet, kids or have houseplants, you should obviously arrange for their care while you're abroad. Again, don't wait for the last minute because most people don't want to be notified that they are expected to look after your dog or kids the next morning. Also, be sure to have a backup plan in case your friend or family member cancels in the last minute.
Home security. In addition to making sure that all the doors are locked and windows closed, it is also important to cancel any deliveries that may arrive during your absence. Also, let your neighbour know that you will be away and ask them to pay attention to any suspicious people/activity around your property. Last but not the least important, check if your home security system is working or have the professionals do it for you. Locksmith in Stockport for instance will also check you locks and latches as well as identify any potential security issues. But in order to be able to deal with security issues if having any, be sure to call the locksmiths well in advance.

Cork couple lose challenge to planning permission for windfarm near their home
A couple have lost their legal challenge to An Bord Pleanála's permission for construction of a wind farm near their home in Co Cork.
Wed, 30 May, 2018 - 15:00
By Ann O'Loughlin
Klaus Balz and his wife Hanna Heubach run a family horticulture business from their home at Bear na Gaoithe, located 637 metres from the proposed wind farm at Cleanrath, Inchigeelagh.
After a permission granted to Cleanrath Windfarm Ltd for construction of 11 wind turbines was overturned by the High Court in February 2016, the developer brought a fresh planning application.
Cork County Council granted permission for six turbines subject to 40 conditions. However, the Board, by a 3/1 decision of April 2017 on various appeals, granted permission for 11 turbines subject to 22 conditions. That permission was in line with many, but not all, recommendations of a Board inspector.
At the High Court today Mr Justice Robert Haughton dismissed all grounds of the couple's judicial review challenge to the Board's decision. He adjourned the matter for two weeks to allow the sides consider the judgment before final orders are made and costs issues are addressed.
Among the couple's complaints was the Board inspector had failed to assess the submissions and scientific research materials presented to support their claims the 2006 Wind Energy Development Guidelines, and a UK department of energy publication on which those guidelines were based, are out-dated and unfit for purpose.
They also complained the inspector failed to assess that noise from wind farms may have a profound effect on human beings.
Mr Justice Haughton found the Board was not required to examine, analyse, evaluate and assess every submission and scientific paper put before it for the purposes of an Environmental Impact Assessment.
The Board, he also held, had examined and evaluated the couple's submissions and scientific evidence in relation to "amplitude modulation" - the impact of the 'swish' noise generated from the movement of turbine blades.
The fact the Board had not adopted a particular condition recommended by its inspector – that noise limits should not exceed specified levels and that Cleanrath should submit a noise monitoring compliance programme before commencing development – did not invalidate its approval, he held.
He dismissed other arguments concerning the impact of the wind farm on the Gearagh special area of conservation. The couple had argued a lack of certainty about the cause of damage to the Gearagh SAC as a result of flood events over the last number of years meant the Board and its inspector could not have concluded beyond reasonable scientific doubt the project would not adversely affect the integrity of the Gearagh SAC.
The judge said, while the best scientific knowledge considered by the Board and inspector could not have definitively answered what historically has caused the degradation of the Gearagh SAC, that was not necessary to answer the "real" question - whether the proposed development, including all proposed mitigation measures, will affect the integrity of the Gearagh SAC in its current state.
The Board had expressly stated it had regard to the conservation objectives, he said. In carrying out an appropriate assessment, the Board had regard to the best scientific knowledge in accepting those mitigation measures would mean the proposed development would not affect the integrity of the Gearagh SAC.

The Side Eyes' origin story is sort of ordinary. "We all met at Burgerama," says bassist Chris.
It's happened a thousand times over, a group of people meet and things just click and next thing they know they've devised a plan to start a band together. It was no different for the members of The Side Eyes explained guitarist Kevin, "… and that's when we wanted to do it… like, we want to do this. We're starting a band,".
That was March of 2015 at Burgerama 4 at The Observatory, a festival for the books (check out our coverage from the event) with an atmosphere so electrifying who knows how many bands were spawned that day. "It looked very doable. You could see this kinda scene forming. It was really amazing. It really drew me in." remembered Astrid, the band's singer.
The Side Eyes' wild, youthful swagger quickly made them darlings in the Los Angeles underground. And it wasn't long before word of the band made its way back to Sean and Lee at Burger Records, soon finding themselves booked at Burger-a-Go-Go that summer and exactly one year later back at the Observatory set to play one of the seven nights of the 2016 Burger/Observatory anniversary shows.
Now it just so happens that Astrid is the daughter of Jeff and it was the recordings that the band made with Jeff's brother Steve that would eventually become The Side Eyes debut self-titled release on Burger Records. Burger's all about keeping it in the family.
For their contribution to the Cyber Singles Club the band choose to re-record the first song, "Cat Call", from their debut release. Propelled by singer Astrid McDonald's fierce vocal delivery over the muscular fury created from the brotherly band of shredders, Chris and Kevin Devine, and backed by the speedy hands of drummer Nick Arnold, The Side Eyes create a fury fitting for the message… no time spared for stupid cat calls.
In addition to re-recording "Cat Calls", The Side Eyes also laid down four more songs during their session at Volcom Studio and as a little bonus we're including the scorching new as-yet unreleased song "Teenage Jerks" below for you to enjoy in all it's goofy green-screen glory.


As I'm sure you are aware there are many places to eat out in Harrogate from Betty's Tea Rooms to the numerous hipster cafes that deck the Georgian pavements of Montpellier. You can find just about any kind of food you care to think of there. My recent trip took in a couple of standout eateries that I can recommend worth a visit, each providing something unique and above all tasty food and good value for money.
Firstly the humble burger bar Damn Yankee, this unassuming place has been in Harrogate for the last 44 years so they must be doing something right. Becky the manager for the last 3 years is all smiles and welcomes. It's a basic requirement sure but you'd be surprised how many restaurants find it hard to be friendly!
The simple concept of Damn Yankee is to provide good simple American food and plenty of it. My ultimate nachos with chicken started the meal off perfectly. It gave me something to nibble away at while I sipped my raspberry mojito (a variation on the classic you should try) just spicy enough to make a difference they left me satisfied.
The service is great here with waitress Charlie's speedy approach very welcome in this busy gaff. But she was not on her own the guys were just as fast and friendly! The steak I ordered came with a delicious pepper sauce and oodles of crisp fries. You don't come here to go on a diet so it's best to go with the flow. Hence, cookie dough cheesecake with caramel honeycomb ice cream was a sweet hit too.
The booths lend this place authenticity and they are my favourite form of restaurant seating, the soundtrack too is made up of those golden oldies reserved for compilation albums. I could go there just for the retro music as much as the food. All in all a fun place that does what it says on the tin.
The next place I'm recommending is William and Victoria. It's ostensibly a wine bar but has some cracking food as well. The wine bar is in the lower ground level of an old building with a fine dining room upstairs open in the evening. My visit was at lunchtime with a colleague who had recommended the place to me. S kicked off with a chicken liver pate in a jar with a tasty tomato and apple chutney. My devilled lamb's kidneys were outstanding. Just the right chilli hit and not overcooked, a meal in itself.
S's super Mediterranean inspired baked Romano peppers stuffed with spinach, pine nuts and a touch of chilli main could be smelt about 30seconds before we saw it, a heady pungent pepper aroma with big hitting flavours. The smoked haddock and with spinach and peas and a mild mustard sauce I chose for my main was delicious. Creamy and light at the same time with the texture of the haddock allowing just enough pressure of my fork to make it interesting and textured.
The place is busy with a variety of diners, some on business but many with friends or family just catching up. It's not a formal place at all so it feels really relaxed but efficient nonetheless.
I couldn't leave without trying a slice of that wonderful cheese Harrogate Blue. With virtually zero food miles the cheese had been kept in perfect condition (extremely important for blues). It was creamy but with a firm texture that made me slip into dream mode (you may know that I am a big lover of cheese and am one of the judges at the World Cheese Awards). This was the perfect end to an excellent meal. The food here pays homage to the classics but has allowed itself a bit of freedom to expand, a grand meal that was well priced with starters at £6 – £7 mark and mains mostly under £15.
My final thoughts are about a rather special building which houses an excellent restaurant. The Royal Baths Chinese Restaurant is housed not surprisingly in the old Georgian baths that gave Harrogate its spa town status. The tale of how it became a restaurant is another story (ask the owner Hak Ng – he tells a great account of his struggles and ultimate triumph against all odds).
The interior of this grand structure is beautiful. Large ceilings and plenty of space with simple decor are the first impressions. This is not your average Chinese restaurant. The food is wonderful, I took K an old friend who claimed she didn't like Chinese food (I said to her you've got to give it a try). She finished the evening saying "That was the best Chinese meal I have ever eaten, brilliant". Not bad for a non-believer.
The food is what makes this place stand out as well as the decor. Highlights included steamed sea bass fillets which were just divine, lightly spiced but still retaining their fresh texture and flavour they were K's favourite. Fillet steak with a black peppercorn sauce charmed me as much as the squid with chilli and sea salt did. It looks great too with lovely presentation.
A well as fine restaurants and bars there should also be a mention of the English breakfast at my B & B, Alexa House, an AA 4* B & B on the Ripon Road. This was a good start to my day. The Cheeseboard is worth a look in for all things cheese as well as numerous other independent food retailers. Johnson said "When a man is tired of London he is tired of life" I would say that I'm not tired of London at all but it is good to try other parts of the country, especially Harrogate.


The following describes the newly developed MC Series of high-resolution electronic balances. The market for these balances will also be discussed, including the commercialization and technology of general-purpose electronic balances.
Mass sensors known as electronic balances have comprised a majority of the weighing instrument market for a considerable time. Electronic balances display measurement values digitally so no special knowledge of analog instruments is required to perform weighing. As a result, anybody can measure the mass of many types of items easily and accurately. This is one of the reasons that electronic balances have developed new markets, along with cost reductions of electronic components and control circuits.
Electronic balances have expanded their market scale through usability and low cost but their measurement principles have not fundamentally changed since they were developed. New measurement principles for weighing have not been proposed for decades and mass traceability is still guaranteed by 1 kg standard in France. Of the seven SI units (length, mass, time, current, temperature, luminous intensity, and substance (mole)), only mass requires a physical guarantee of accuracy. Because of this requirement, mass is considered a specialist field that requires accuracy management with a calibration weight. This is one reason that high-resolution balances are needed as mass comparators.
The practical measurement principles of general-purpose electronic balances fall under the following four methods: electromagnetic equilibrium, strain gauges (load cells), electrostatic capacitance, and tuning forks. The technological background of each method will be briefly described below.
1. Electromagnetic equilibrium: This method uses a fulcrum and lever. For example, an unknown mass is placed on the left side of a lever and a balancing force is generated on the right side of the lever through the fulcrum. Electromagnetic force is used to generate this force. The electromagnetic force mentioned here is Lorentz force, as taught in high school physics classes using Fleming's left-hand rule. In other words, when current flows perpendicular to magnetic flux flowing in the magnetic circuit, a force is generated in proportion to the current at a right angle to the flow of the current and the magnetic flux. The current required to balance the mass (force) on the left side of the fulcrum determines mass. The resolution acquired by this method is very high for a balance. For a general-purpose balance, the rate of the minimum display value called sensitivity against the capacity is about one over several hundred thousand. Mass sensors that use electromagnetic equilibrium are mainly used for high-resolution electronic balances and there are analytical balances with resolutions of one over several million to several hundred million. Analytical balances used in research require high sensitivity and currently most use the electromagnetic equilibrium method.
2. Load cells: Using electrically resistant wires called strain gauges, load cells detect the strain caused by a load as a change in the electrical resistance. Several strain gauges are affixed to what is called a spring material, which has a Roberval structure. Since the strain of metal used in the elastic deformation is very small, a Wheatstone bridge circuit is used to detect the difference of the contraction and elongation detected by the strain gauges and increase output level. Commercial products using this method achieve practical resolutions of one over several thousand to a hundred thousand. Electronic balances that use strain gauges are used in a wide range of fields, including part management in production facilities and for academic experiments.
3. Electrostatic capacitance: This method uses a Roberval mechanism with electrodes to detect capacitance changes in two areas, the area displaced (moveable area) and not displaced (fixed area) by the load. Displacement by the load changes positions among the electrodes. Accordingly, the change of electrostatic capacitance among the electrodes is used to measure mass. Resolution is typically one over several thousand or below so this method is generally used for low-resolution instruments like kitchen and bathroom scales.
4. Tuning forks: With the tuning fork method, the natural frequency of a tuning fork is changed by tension (load) applied to the tuning fork. For example, a mass is placed on the left side and a vibrating mechanism placed on the right side via a fulcrum. The vibrating mechanism detects excitation and frequency using a piezoelectric element. If the mass is changed, the natural frequency varies accordingly. This results in a change in free vibration frequency with the same excitation, which is used to acquire the mass. Since the frequency is counted to acquire the mass, no analog/digital conversion is required, unlike the three methods above. The tuning fork method has a resolution of one over several tens of thousand to several hundred thousand, giving it a performance level between the electromagnetic equilibrium and load cell methods. It is used as the mass sensor of general-purpose balances.
While the four methods have their positives and negatives, the electromagnetic equilibrium method is fundamentally different from the other three methods from a technical point of view. In the electromagnetic equilibrium method, the force equilibrium is achieved without changing the lever position via the fulcrum. The mechanism is always controlled to return to its original state. This method follows the principles of balances made centuries ago. It is referred to as the null method because the balanced position of the lever is not changed. The other three methods are premised on the fact that the measurement mechanism is somehow displaced. Stated more clearly, they are like spring balances. The mass (load) displaces the measurement mechanism so this method is called the displacement method.
Balances using the null method and the displacement method have very different resolutions and stabilities. The reason for this difference is the mass sensor area, which is completely made of metal. Its elastic limits and mechanical features are too inadequate for the high resolution required for balances. Mathematically speaking, the limits of the displacement method can be exceeded by lowering the amount of displacement and improving the electrical sensitivity. In reality, reducing the displacement to be detected causes a drop in signal level and increases interference from noise. As a result, resistance to interference such as vibration weakens, which causes a significant drop in display stability and response speed. It can be said that the resolution performance of the displacement method is limited due to the features of metal. Until a low-cost metal that is lightweight and consistently high in elasticity is developed, the current practical resolution of one over several hundred thousand is the technical limit of the displacement method.
On the other hand, since the electromagnetic equilibrium method uses the null method, it is not affected by the features of the structural material in principle. Furthermore, a control method is used to constantly monitor the position of the lever. The magnetic damping effect provided by electromagnetic induction in the magnetic circuit makes it possible to provide control feedback at high gain. Because of these benefits, the electromagnetic equilibrium method has the strong vibration-proofing and high-speed response required for high resolution. This is why the high-resolution electronic balances for production lines, which require vibration-proofing and high-speed response, all use the electromagnetic equilibrium method.
The lineup of electric balances that A&D designs and sells are mostly electromagnetic equilibrium and load cell types. Recently, the market has been demanding balances with higher resolution. One reason for this demand is the establishment of Japan Calibration Service System (JCSS) standards for calibration weights and scales. These standards have increased the need for mass comparators, balances that can calibrate counterweights. In addition, demand has risen for high-precision measurement management for production line measuring devices. These requests from new markets mean that there is a need for balances that can display values with an extra decimal place over current general-purpose balances.
These demands pushed us to develop mass comparators using the GX/GX-K Series of general-purpose balances, which use the electromagnetic equilibrium method. In fact, the ability to stably display an extra decimal place was confirmed when product development started 10 years ago. However, the difficulty of dealing with corner errors and achieving adequate performance over the entire weighing capacity resulted in the product being shelved as a general-purpose product. This time, thanks to a complete set of options like the auto-centering pan, the MC Series is able to handle these issues. The specifications of the four models available at launch are listed below, and the maximum resolution is 1/10,000,000.
Using the four models above, it is possible to perform calibration of standard weights from 500 g to 20 kg, which are OIML standard F1 level or lower (F2, M1, M2). We intend to expand our range of models of high-resolution balances to meet future market demands. We hope these new products are used not only as mass comparators for calibration weights, but also as equipment for testing and research, new fields in which Japanese companies are strong, and for quality control and production lines in production facilities. This will help create new measurement instrument markets and contribute to improved quality and productivity in the workplace.

With no baby born before 23 weeks surviving at length, Amillia has gone home to be cared for under the watchful eye of her parents.
Taylor was just 284 grams (10 ounces) and 24 centimeters (9.25 inches) long when she was born and doctors typically say that babies weighing less than 400 grams have very little change of surviving.
Babies born at full-term typically spent 37 to 40 weeks inside their mothers before delivery.
Her mother, 37 year-old Sonja Taylor, faced fertility issues and used in-vitro fertilization to conceive Amillia. But she battled problems throughout the pregnancy.
Mother delivered baby at 21 weeks on October 24 and Amillia was barely breathing. Her parents named her for a Latin word meaning "resilient, fighter, hardworking."
The resilient fighter hasn't given up and her parents told the media about their daughter's spirit.
"I'm still in amazement," Sonja said. "It was hard to imagine she would get this far."
"I wanted her to have a chance, and I knew in my heart that she was going to make it," she added.
Dr. William Smalling told the Associated Press on Monday that physicians treating Amillia "weren't too optimistic. But she proved us all wrong."
"She's going to be in a normal crib, she's going to have normal feedings, she's taking all her feedings from a bottle," Smalling said.
Amillia has dealt with some breathing issues, very mild brain hemorrhage and digestive problems since her birth but none of them will cause any negative long-term effects.
"We can deal with lungs and things like that but, of course, the brain is the most important," Dr. Paul Fassbach told AP. "But her prognosis is excellent."


Kampala district lies within Buganda Kingdom in the Central part of Uganda. The area neighbors Wakiso district to the south, west and north while the municipality of Kira lies in the east. The geographical coordinates of the district are; 00 19N, 32 35E. The UBOS population review of 2011 put the population in Kampala at a figure of 1,659,600 people.
Because of its close proximity to the Equator, the weather in Kampala is warm all year-round. There are two rainy seasons from March through May and from august through December.


Effects of contextual integration on recall of pictures by older adults.
Abstract: This study investigated age-related differences in the ability to utilize integrative relationships between target and context as a memory support by directly manipulating the relationship between a target picture and context. We hypothesized that as the active integration required between target and cue increased, age differences would increase. Old and young adults were instructed to remember target pictures, each presented with a pictorial cue. The cue/ target relationship was one of three types: categorically related (high integration condition), visually interacting (high integration condition), or unrelated and noninteracting (low integration condition). Cued recall of the targets was tested. The results indicated that the poorly integrated target-context relationship produced the largest age difference, supporting the integration hypothesis.


With over 2000 years of history, Basel is a mix of traditional and cosmopolitan, and being situated at the Swiss-German-French tripoint has made for a very interesting and culture filled city. With its many hidden squares, almost 200 fountains and a huge art offering, Basel is a great city to explore.
Fantastic Art Offering- Basel has the best art offering of any Swiss cities so be sure to check out the city's outstanding museums and galleries.
Kunstmuseum - One of Europe's most renowned fine art institutions whose collection is spread across its three buildings and includes the likes of the Holbein family, Konrad Witz and van Gogh.
River Rhine Cruises - Whether for a quick river crossing, a round trip of the city and harbour or a fantastic lunch cruise, be sure to take advantage of the delightful River Rhine which gives great views and allows you to see this impressive city from a different angle.
Morgenstiche – A truly spectacular 4am lantern march in which all the lights of the city are switched off; it really is a must see.
Explore the pretty cobbled streets of Basel's Old Town; browse its small boutiques and eat in its impressive collection of restaurants before spending time in the main square, the Marketplatz. Here you will be drawn to the richly decorated sandstone Town Hall and visitors enjoy strolling around the daily market checking out the delicious local produce. Just south west from here, climb the Basel Munster the 13th century cathedral for fantastic views over the city.
The city is a must visit for art lovers with the Kunstmuseum boasting amazing sculptures, paintings and installations from the last seven centuries. The city also offers the Jean Tinguely Museum where you can see his unique, slightly wacky kinetic sculptures in addition to drawings and documents which give insight into the Swiss painter and sculptor. Each June, Basel hosts its prestigious international art fair, nicknamed the Olympics of the Art World which showcases work from over 280 of world's leading galleries in a 3 day event.
Art Basel is not the only world class event that this city has, in fact the city has a collection of fantastic festivals filling its calendar. One of its biggest and the local's favourite is the 3 day long Fasnacht, or Basel Carnival which is steeped in local tradition and visitors can enjoy the colourful costumes and music on display. A highlight is the Morgenstiche where at 4am on the Monday morning all the lights in the city centre are switched off and over 200 decorated lanterns parade the street in an eerie but beautiful display.

Q: Backslashes in gsub (escaping and backreferencing) Consider the following snippet:
puts 'hello'.gsub(/.+/, '\0 \\0 \\\0 \\\\0')

This prints (as seen on ideone.com):
hello hello \0 \0

This was very surprising, because I'd expect to see something like this instead:
hello \0 \hello \\0

My argument is that \ is an escape character, so you write \\ to get a literal backslash, thus \\0 is a literal backslash \ followed by 0, etc. Obviously this is not how gsub is interpreting it, so can someone explain what's going on?
And what do I have to do to get the replacement I want above?

A: Escaping is limited when using single quotes rather then double quotes:
puts 'sinlge\nquote'
puts "double\nquote"

"\0" is the null-character (used i.e. in C to determine the end of a string), where as '\0' is "\\0", therefore both 'hello'.gsub(/.+/, '\0') and 'hello'.gsub(/.+/, "\\0") return "hello", but 'hello'.gsub(/.+/, "\0") returns "\000". Now 'hello'.gsub(/.+/, '\\0') returning 'hello' is ruby trying to deal with programmers not keeping the difference between single and double quotes in mind. In fact, this has nothing to do with gsub: '\0' == "\\0" and '\\0' == "\\0". Following this logic, whatever you might think of it, this is how ruby sees the other strings: both '\\\0' and '\\\\0' equal "\\\\0", which (when printed) gives you \\0. As gsub uses \x for inserting match number x, you need a way to escape \x, which is \\x, or in its string representation: "\\\\x".
Therefore the line
puts 'hello'.gsub(/.+/, "\\0 \\\\0 \\\\\\0 \\\\\\\\0")

indeed results in
hello \0 \hello \\0

Washington: President Donald Trump said on Friday he is planning changes including a possible pathway to US citizenship to foreigners holding H-1B visas, issued temporarily to highly educated immigrants who work in speciality occupations such as technology or medicine.
"H1-B [sic] holders in the United States can rest assured that changes are soon coming which will bring both simplicity and certainty to your stay, including a potential path to citizenship," Trump said in a Twitter post.
The Republican president has often said he wanted an immigration system that favoured educated or highly skilled people. The White House did not immediately comment on what kind of changes Trump was considering.
Trump and Democrats in the US Congress are at an impasse over spending legislation to fund the federal government. Trump has refused to sign on to a bill unless it includes $5.6 billion to build a wall along the country's southern border to prevent illegal immigration by migrants.

Lil Uzi Vert Tried to Escape From Cops on a Dirt Bike
Indie Spotlight: J-Hop
Multi-talented Artist KaJ Loud Is Taking the Industry by Storm
KaJ Loud, or Kailon Loud as he is formally known, is a new talent gradually taking over the music scene. He is a talented singer, songwriter, and rapper with a unique musical style. KaJ Loud is working under the Kings Entertainment brand, which has been instrumental in growing and scaling his career to new heights. Since making his debut on the scene, KaJ Loud has served the industry with hit after hit, including his upcoming single "Shrimp N Noodles." This single and his other hits are available on YouTube and all music streaming platforms.
KaJ Loud discovered his passion for music as a young boy who was intrigued by hip-hop and RnB music, thanks to his mother and grandfather. Though he knew he was meant for the music scene, KaJ Loud did not pursue this dream until the pandemic hit. During this period, he discovered the true power of music and its potential to bring change to society.
"After my sports career ended, I found myself looking for a different outlet, and music became my shelter. The music I make comes from my mind, body, and soul collaborating to produce deep and powerful records. I make music to release not only my own pain and frustration but also my happiness and satisfaction to the point where people anywhere from all walks of life can enjoy whatever I put out," shares KaJ Loud.
KaJ Loud made his professional music debut at the beginning of 2020; since then, he has released four singles, including "Shrimp N Noodles," and an EP titled "1Up" in June of 2021. His hard work and dedication have seen him rub shoulders with the likes of E-40, 50 Cent, Baby Bash, Twista, Slim Thug, Dice SoHo, Lil' Keke, Frankie J, Maxo Kream, King Lil G, Marty Obey, Slimmy B, and Tre Cinco, to name a few. These interactions all bore fruit in valuable lessons and teachable moments for KaJ Loud, which have been instrumental in his growth.
KaJ Loud's biggest challenges in his musical journey came from his self-doubt and lack of confidence as an artist and entertainer. This was even when people would reassure him of his greatness. It's sometimes difficult to move past your thought process. On top of that, the industry is fickle, just like the people in it. People often won't reply to messages, don't communicate, and forget about you. But a determined and focused individual, KaJ Loud has overcome the many hurdles to get to his present level of success.
The sensational artist is currently working hard to drop a follow-up hit while also pushing his new music video to reach a diverse audience. An artist's social media presence has proved instrumental in the music scene, and KaJ Loud wants to continue staying relevant in the space. To him, quality will always prevail over quantity, which is how he wants his brand to be known.

Violations of the tax code involving income tax evasion constitutes membership in the unreported economy.Common motives for operating in black markets are to trade contraband, avoid taxes and regulations, or skirt price controls or rationing.Typically the totality of such activity is referred to with the definite article as a complement to the official economies, by market for such goods and services, e.g. The black market is distinct from the grey market, in which commodities are distributed through channels which, while legal, are unofficial, unauthorized, or unintended by the original manufacturer, and the white market.Black markets have online counterparts consisting of darknet market websites such as the Silk Road, individual websites, forums and chat rooms.While overlaps exist, the online markets are focused on specific areas including drugs, compromised credentials, malware, digital goods and weapons.Piracy specifically takes place on private or public warez and Bit Torrent sites as well as various peer-to-peer file sharing networks.
There is no single underground economy; there are many.
These underground economies are omnipresent, existing in market oriented as well as in centrally planned nations, be they developed or developing.
Those engaged in underground activities circumvent, escape or are excluded from the institutional system of rules, rights, regulations and enforcement penalties that govern formal agents engaged in production and exchange.
Different types of underground activities are distinguished according to the particular institutional rules that they violate.
Four major underground economies can be identified: The "illegal economy" consists of the income produced by those economic activities pursued in violation of legal statutes defining the scope of legitimate forms of commerce.

On 7 July 2020, the third iteration of the China-Afghanistan Trilateral vice Foreign Ministers' Strategic Dialogue was held. Conducted via video conferencing, the three countries were represented by China's Vice Foreign Minister Luo Zhaohui, Afghanistan's Deputy Foreign Minister, Mirwais Nab, and Pakistan's Foreign Secretary, Sohail Mahmood. Like the previous iterations of trilateral level dialogues among the three countries, the joint statement issued post this Dialogue too focused on a range of issues such as security, the prospects of peace building in Afghanistan, Belt and Road Initiative (BRi) related projects etc. Additionally, given the prevailing circumstances, there was also a focus on COVID-19 related responses.
While the contents of the trilateral joint statement issued in July 2020 (as in the case of previous ones), such as trilateral cooperation on security, peace, economy etc, are pretty standard, the implementation level is where this (essentially) China-led grouping's prospects will face its real test. For instance, Chinese and Pakistani interests do overlap but the methods each opts to achieve the same, and its effects, do not. For instance, China's primary concern regarding terrorism in Afghanistan pertains to security of the restive Xinjiang Province. Not only does Xinjiang share a short 96-km border with Afghanistan along the latter's mountainous Badakshan province, it is also home to China's Uighur minority community who practice the Islamic faith. Security of Xinjiang province is directly relevant for China's "March West" strategy involving BRI and related projects in Central Asian Republics (CAR). In this regard, countering jihadi terrorism is a key priority for Beijing.
On the other hand, Pakistan's intensifying support for jihadi outfits in the region, many of which have foreign fighters and are based in Pakistan (most notably the Afghan Taliban on a bilateral level seems to be an attempt to ensure Pakistan making sure that the jihadi terrorism it supports does not seep into Xinjiang and/or endanger any BRI projects (current or planned). From Kabul's vantage point, China is the only country that is likely to be able to keep Pakistan in check. From Pakistan's vantage point, this trilateral is useful for both optics, as well as to remain relevant in any Afghanistan-China dialogue.
However, in the context of the US-backed talks with the Taliban, China is concerned about jihadi groups such as the Taliban, coming to power in Afghanistan, whereas Pakistan's objective is to install a Taliban government that will be remotely controlled from Pakistan. The Taliban has not been anti-China so far. In fact, Beijing has maintained direct communication channels with the group since the 1990s when the group was in power in Afghanistan, and Beijing has hosted the group for talks on more than one occasion. But China does not possess leverage over the Taliban, especially not direct, and it is Pakistan that holds such leverage. Thus, a Taliban government in Kabul would essentially mean a fundamentalist Islamist theocracy in control of a strategic territory, with Beijing having limited control over developments. Combined with the US's increasing inroads in Central Asia (especially with the US's new February 2020 Central Asia Strategy), and the thawing US-Taliban relationship, this does not portend well for Chinese objectives.
On the other hand, Pakistan views installing such a government in Afghanistan as the only way to ensure its own security along its Western frontiers, and therefore, it is unlikely to roll back its attempts. While economic interests could, perhaps to a degree, enable overcoming this conundrum, the extent to which it has the potential to calibrate these opposing priorities is debatable. As such, at present, the trilateral relationship is unlikely to deliver any substantial outcome. Yet, the equations could change if Beijing opts to take on a more prominent role vis-a-vis Afghanistan in the coming weeks.

The most common methods for getting rid of unwanted body hair at home are, of course, either shaving or waxing. Some people think those are convenient options simply because they can be done at home. However, many people feel that those methods are time consuming and inconvenient compared to other options, especially laser hair removal treatments. Let's take a quick peek at why they feel that way.
One of the things that many people like about having laser treatment to get rid of body hair is that it's only mildly uncomfortable. It may cause your skin to feel a little warm. In some cases you may even experience a slight feeling like a static electricity shock. But it's nothing compared to the pain you might experience when trying to wax unwanted body hair away on your own at home.
Another reason that hair removal devices are so popular is that they can actually reduce hair growth in two ways. The first is that it can take a long time between sessions for the hair to grow back. While shaving might get rid of hair for a few days, lasers can keep it from growing back for one or two weeks. That's because the lasers get rid of the hair all the way down to the follicle, while shaving only removes surface hair.
The second hair reduction you may notice is that the hair that does eventually grow back could be lighter in color. There could also be less of it. That thinning and lightness can make the hair less obvious. So, you won't have to be as worried or embarrassed over it.
Another major argument in favor of having laser treatment to remove hair is that it can save you quite a bit of time. It might not seem like it at first. After all, each appointment takes about an hour, and you also have to factor in driving time. However, the time you will not have to spend waxing and shaving can more than make up for that, especially when you consider how long you can go between laser therapy sessions.
If you choose to have laser hair removal, you can also look forward to a quick recovery, at least in the vast majority of cases. There are almost never any major side effects. The worst side effects are blisters and burns, but they usually only occur in cases where people are treated by a laser that isn't appropriate for their skin type. As long as you go to a certified clinic with well-trained technicians, the biggest issue you should have is some redness or minor swelling for an hour or two after your treatment is done.
If you do decide to have laser hair removal, always weigh your options well. There are many different clinics and machines out there. It's important to find one that matches well with both your budget and your skin's needs. Since everyone's situation is different, it's vital that you consult with skincare experts before you settle on one.
Have you already tried laser hair removal treatment? Let me know your findings!


ARTICLES Am I Eligible for Tax Debt Relief?
Am I Eligible for Tax Debt Relief?
It's estimated 21 percent of the American workforce is in tax debt; many are not yet aware of it.
The IRS is often willing to compromise to help individuals pay off their tax debts when they can afford it, and no sooner.
If you think your tax debt is too large to ever be cleared, you may be able to reach an Offer in Compromise with the IRS and pay back less than what you owe.
When you owe money to the IRS, it can feel like your tax debt problem will never go away — but that isn't the case. Like any creditor, the IRS is willing to reach a compromise to make sure they collect what you can afford, when you can afford it. No matter the size of your debt, there is an IRS debt relief program available to you, as long as you meet certain criteria.
Tackling the problem of tax debt can seem impossible for someone not acquainted with tax law, which is why we at Solvable are here to make debt relief easy. We'll break down how you can tackle your tax debt, so you can know if you're eligible for any tax debt relief.
To determine whether you are eligible for tax relief from the IRS, known as an Offer in Compromise, you must first find out how much you owe. If you haven't kept accurate records, this can be a confusing process. A tax accountant can help you if you are struggling and, with their help, you can commit to keeping accurate, well-ordered records from now on. A spreadsheet is one of the best tools you can use to make all these calculations and to keep your financial records orderly.
Work out what taxes you've filed, whether paid or not.
Determine whether your existing tax returns are for state or federal taxes.
Find out how much you haven't paid in taxes.
Figure out any additional interest. The IRS charges 0.5% interest per month from the first instance of unpaid taxes after April 17 each year.
What if I Owe Less Than $10,000?
Although owing thousands of dollars in taxes can cause significant stress, if you owe less than $10,000, you don't have much cause for concern. The IRS usually does not issue tax liens for debts under $10,000, which means that they won't make any legal claims against your property or other assets. Under law, an individual with this amount of debt will automatically qualify for a Guaranteed Installment Agreement.
A Guaranteed Installment Agreement is a plan made between you and the IRS to pay off your taxes incrementally. If you and your legal spouse have filed all your tax returns in the past five years and you are not currently on any other type of IRS payment plan, you are legally entitled to make this agreement as long as your tax debt is less than $10,000. The important thing is that you must pay off all your tax debt within three years, or else the IRS may make a claim on your assets via tax liens.
You can choose how much you pay, and you can pay as little as $25 at one time; however, to ensure that you do pay off your debt in full within three years, we advise you to pay as much as you can with each payment. The best part is that as long as you keep up with your repayment plan, all your assets will be safe.
What if I Owe $10,000–$50,000?
If you owe between $10,000 and $50,000 to the IRS, there's good news and bad news about your eligibility for tax debt relief. The bad news is the IRS is more likely to issue a tax lien to you than to those who owe less, but this usually happens only when a debtor fails to make a repayment plan, or fails to stick with their plan once they've made one. The good news is that you qualify for a Streamlined Installment Agreement.
Any individual who owes the IRS a tax debt up to and including $100,000 is eligible for a Streamlined Installment Agreement. These agreements are typically processed quickly because an individual debtor doesn't have to file many documents to support their claim. In practice, a Streamlined Installment Agreement means you won't have to file information on your salary, assets, expenses, or debts.
The payment plans for these agreements usually span 60 months, which is five years, but can extend to seven years. Either way, they never exceed the amount of time in which a debt would expire under current law.
What if I Can't Pay Off My Current Tax Debt?
If you are unable to pay back anything, the IRS will give you the option of filing your debts as temporarily uncollectible. This option is available to those with debts of any value, although, in practice, those who owe under $10,000 find it easiest for those debts to be deemed temporarily uncollectible. If you have proof that you're struggling with financial hardship, filing your debts as temporarily uncollectible is the way to go. You'll be pleased to know that more applications for this form of debt relief are being accepted than ever before.
Both the Guaranteed Installment Agreement and the Streamlined Installment Agreement require you to pay your debt back in full. If you're unable to do that, there is the option of an Offer in Compromise.
This will allow you to reach an agreement with the IRS to pay back less than you owe. Only 40% of offers are accepted on average, so this isn't accessible to everyone struggling with tax debt. The IRS only accepts an offer if they're confident the amount you offer is equal to, or exceeds, the amount they could collect from you through tax liens or other debt enforcement actions.
Trying to reach an Offer in Compromise can be a time-consuming procedure that involves a lot of paperwork. Solvable can help you find the right debt relief company to make the process a whole lot easier. Contact them today to find out more about tax debt relief solutions. With an experienced team on your side, you can free yourself from the stress of tax debt.

Today's my tenth anniversary. April 26, 2001 was the day that I began life as a fulltime freelance illustrator in the worlds of science fiction, fantasy and horror publishing. That was my last day of what many would call a promising and safe professional career in architecture, and pursued what many would call an extremely risky career as a fulltime freelancer. Why do something so boneheaded? Pure and simple, I wanted to be a fulltime professional artist more than anything in the whole world. That simple. Still do.
I always say that I'm an illustrator trying his best every day to be an artist. I don't think you get to be an artist just because you can paint or draw well. It also takes years of seeing and shaping a fresh vision of the world that others can share too. It's more than just mechanical skill. And I never believed the stereotype that all artists are flakes. Some of the savviest, strongest people I know are pro artists. It takes guts to take chances, which is what the best ones do. And it takes time and experience to build a life like that.
But here's a hard truth I can proudly say today that I couldn't until now -- at last count, over this last ten years, I've produced over 120 cover illustrations for major science fiction, fantasy and horror books. In other words, I've averaged one major published piece of cover art in sf/f/h for every single month of the last ten years. I don't know how many pro artists can match that book cover ratio in that span, but I suspect the number is....tiny. And by the way, that's not counting the piles of magazine covers and interior artworks and dozens of book interior illos that I did while producing those 120+ covers in ten years.
What that number means to me is I came to work every single day, blue-collar all the way, and never quit for even a day. Nothing more, nothing less. And yeah, that may be the thing I'm most proud of.
What happens in the next ten years? No idea. I didn't go into the previous ten with 120+ sf/f/h covers as a goal. I hope I can continue to make art, and continue to get better at it. I want to be a great artist. That's what I wanted more than anything in the world on April 26, 2001. That's what I want today.
Great post John - a well deserved "congrats" is in order.
WOW! Ten years! And lots of beautiful art!
Here's to 10 more, and even more beautiful art!
Lev: Thanks very much, man! Congrats again on the John W. Campbell nom. Well-earned!
Christine: Thank you! Would be nice to make it up to the Seattle area again someday soon. I'd trade your weather for ours today. 98 degrees today and it's not even summer yet. Yikes!
John, congratulations! My bet is . . . the next 10 will be even more rewarding than the prior 10.
Great post. And congratulations - your work is amazing, and I can't wait to see what you do in the next ten years.
Lou: Thanks as always, man.
Kat: Thank you, Kat. Congrats on your big event tomorrow night. Very cool!
Well said, John. Your fire and determination shows in your level of success. And we're all so lucky to have your talent to enjoy. Congrats on your anniversary.
That's fantastic and congratulations, John. The sheer quality of your oeuvre and the tenacity to stay strong for ten years within an hyper-changing marketplace gives people like myself a tangible inspiration to keep after our own dreams of freelancing.
Here's to another 10 years, sir.
Great post, John. Showing up every day and doing the work, doing it as well as you can, and then doing it again, is, in the end, all there is. The work is what matters. I'm proud and happy to have one of those covers (and soon another) be on one of my books.
Mair, Vincent, Adrian, Mark -- Thanks! Much appreciated!
Congratulations! Great work, thanks for sharing this milestone.
