Home companion service (HCS ######) – only registered with state, no RN supervision of caregivers, no personal care or skilled care, no standards of care, and are not accredited. Insurance is not required by AHCA regulations. A homemaker and companion service (HCS) is prohibited by Florida law from providing any hands-on personal care under the registration number (not a license) issued by AHCA.
Nurse Registry (NR######): licensed but not accredited and all caregivers are contractors (The following link defines contractors IRS p15a) that are sent to your home that you must manage, often they call it a "Consumer Directed Model". Nurse registries are only an employment service for independent contractors looking for work, and the client may be responsible for the caregiver's unemployment insurance, payroll taxes and workers compensation insurance. They often list their license as just 6 numbers without the Nurse Registry or NR designation to appear as a Home Health Agency (HHA). The registry model transfers the cost of government mandated taxes and insurances to you. The contractors are not managed by a RN, you manage them. The registry looks less expensive until you compare apples to apples. You get what you pay for in life.
Home Health Agencies (HHA299993568), like Partners in Healthcare, are licensed and accredited and insured for all levels of personal and skilled nursing services. Home Health Agencies may be Medicare certified for acute care nursing and therapy services, or personal care focused as is Partners in Healthcare.
These tax, liabilities and insurance costs, if not handled properly, may create legal or economic liabilities for you or your estate. If you utilize independent contractors or self-employed individuals, you may still be held as the responsible party for the liabilities listed.

Most people prefer to live in the safety and comfort of their home as they age. Home Healthcare Agencies can help loved ones stay in their home, but how do you know which type of home care provider best matches your loved one's needs? The key to choosing the right provider is planning.
Step one: Financial planning for your loved one's care will help ensure that you have the money needed to maintain the quality of life and level of care required.
Step two: Consider health care needs over time. This planning step may involve home modifications, in-home health monitoring, and Personal Emergency Response System (PERS) to help prevent falls or accidents.
Step three: Planning for transportation. As your loved one ages, he or she may eventually need to stop driving due to health or safety concerns. However, it is still vital for your loved one to have an active social life. Home care agencies, like Partners in Healthcare, can provide transportation to meet friends, doctor visits, hobbies, attend religious services and more.
Armed with a plan, one must understand the types of central Florida home care services and providers available. The laws and regulations that govern home care in Florida are designed to protect the patient and family. Families may choose to hire an individual licensed or non-licensed contractors, an independent contracting business (Nurse Registry), or an accredited Home Health Agency. It is important to understand the risks including elder abuse, fraud, and insurance and tax liabilities that go along with independent contractors.
When it comes to home care for a loved one, you must understand what level of care is needed. Does your parent need personal care or homemaker/companion assistance? Is assistance needed all day or all night, or just in the morning and/or evening? Do you need help for your parent when a family member or friend is not there? Assistance may also be planned for occasional respite care, or around holidays or vacations when family caregivers are not available.

Before Kartik Was Signed, Varun Turned Down 'Hera Pheri 3' Out Of Respect For Akshay Kumar
Recently, the news of Akshay Kumar walking out of Hera Pheri 3 & getting replaced by Kartik Aaryan went viral.
A lot of fans expressed disappointment over the development and even Hera Pheri star Suniel Shetty wasn't happy about Akshay's exit.
Later, Akshay revealed in an interview that he left the film because of script issue while Suniel clarified that Kartik won't be playing the same role popularised by Akshay but a completely new character.

Now, a new report has claimed that before getting Kartik Aaryan on board, the makers actually approached Varun Dhawan after Akshay's exit.
However, Varun decided not to take up the role out of respect for Akshay Kumar.
A source told Bollywood Hungama , "Both Firoz (Nadiadwala) and Anand (Pandit) wanted Varun Dhawan to step into the shoes of Raju, as he has the conviction of doing comedies like no one else. The two producers also made an offer to David Dhawan to direct the film with Rohit Dhawan as the co-director".

The source further added, "While the offer was very tempting, Varun didn't want to jump into the franchise created by Akshay Kumar. He has tremendous respect for Akshay Kumar and didn't want to use the not-so-good equation between Akshay and Firoz, to climb the ladder of stardom. Hera Pheri 3 is a sure-shot blockbuster, but Varun stepped out of the film out of respect for Akshay. His father, David Dhawan also felt the same".
After Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 & Hera Pheri 3, it was reported that Kartik may also take over another Akshay Kumar franchise by coming on board Awara Paagal Deewana 2 .
As for the search for director for Hera Pheri 3, Anees Bazmee recently confirmed in an interview with Hindustan Times that he has been approached to helm the third installment. He said, "It's true that the makers (producer Firoz Nadiadwala and others) want me to do the film but I have a couple of things (projects) that I am looking forward to. Once I figure them out, things will be clearer. There are date issues as I am occupied, but I think we will sort that out."

Get a cab: how driverless taxis could affect our social lives
Ordering a cab through an app is a pretty standard element of your average night out these days. Waiting at a taxi rank, hailing one from the street or calling a cab firm are quickly becoming things of the past. And, in just a few years' time, so could the taxi drivers themselves.
How far away are the first driverless fleets from hitting the streets? Well, technically, it's already happened.
THE BRAND RANKINGS
In Phoenix, Arizona, Google's well-publicised Waymo mission of bringing fully self-driving cars to the world is fully underway. In fact, they have a permanent driverless ride sharing programme operating as of December 2018. While the vehicles themselves are completely driverless, the rides aren't. At least, not yet. Trained drivers are still sitting at the wheel, ready to take over should the situation call for it. But soon Waymo will decide to remove them from the process entirely, offering completely driver-free rides.
So far, so good. Waymo could well be operating the very first fleet of driverless vehicles within the foreseeable future. And, once it starts, it will have a willing client-list of several hundred volunteers-turned-customers who have experienced it first-hand.
But competition is fierce, and Google isn't the only player in the field. Late in 2018, Toyota and Uber partnered-up to take on Waymo's emerging market-dominance, investing $500million in a venture which could see Uber providing the customers and Toyota providing the vehicles. Other notable partnerships include Volkswagen and Inteland Aptiv and BMW with the latter making serious headway with test-drives in their service Lyft. There are also similar offerings in Russia, and Dubai – all at a similar level of testing, and all keen to commercialise first.
More Cab4Now News:- Uber pledges £5m toward electric vehicle charging points in London
Addison Lee, Europe's largest car hire company, have partnered with Oxbotica in hope of setting up a driverless answer to Uber in London, with hopes that it will be fully operational by 2021 as per a government pilot scheme. There is also testing for a similar scheme in Scotland underway.
Another player in the game, which could rival both Waymo and Uber's dominance, is the French company Navya, who are working to provide an electric and completely eco-friendly driverless solution. Their testing has been going on in Las Vegas since 2017, with autonomous shuttles ferrying up to 11 passengers at a time around a half-mile loop. They also have plans and funding secured for full-sized buses – well ahead of anyone else.
However, so far, none of the major or minor players in this game have reached the 'no safety passenger required' phases of testing. Not even Navya. But it really is only a matter of time before one of them kicks it up a gear.
Once driverless taxi fleets become the norm, what will that mean for the social lives of their passengers?

The coal filter (2) is behind in the right forward wheel niche. Further are visible: a tube to the electromagnetic valve (1), a tube to ventilation of a fuel tank (3). Ventilation of a fuel tank is important for faultless giving of fuel: in that volume in what fuel is spent, air should get into a fuel tank, differently in a fuel tank the lowered pressure is formed, and fuel giving will stop. Further the fuel tank should be ventilated that fuel had a possibility for expansion at heating. At a gulf of fuel from a fuel tank air enough should be superseded that filled in fuel did not pour out through a jellied branch pipe. Ventilation of a fuel tank in Audi A4 Above in a fuel tank the ventilating tube is connected. In the beginning it goes through connecting knot on a jellied branch pipe to the so-called gravitational valve. It closes a tube as soon as the car bends sideways more than on 45 °. In such a way fuel pouring out through a ventilating tube is not supposed at failures. Therefrom the ventilating tube is deduced not simply outside, and enters into the coal filter in the right forward wheel niche. The purpose of such device consists in catching of the fuel steams harmful to environment acting through this tube (arising, for example, at the expense of heating of a contained fuel tank). When the engine works, at certain loading on it gases again are sucked away from the coal filter. When it occurs, defines the electromagnetic valve operated injection of fuel. In parallel this system there is a high-speed ventilation which conducts to a jellied branch pipe through the compensating volume in the form of special purpose capacity in jellied mine of a fuel tank. This way of ventilation matters, first of all at refuelling when fuel level quickly rises, and fuel steams should be superseded but so that not to get to atmosphere in too considerable quantity.

The trade surplus increased from a revised $2,342 million in August (previously $1,604 million) to $3,017 million (consensus: +$1,700m) in September.
Trade surplus: The trade surplus increased from a revised $2,342 million in August (previously $1,604 million) to $3,017 million (consensus: +$1,700m) in September. It was the largest surplus in 19 months and the 9th successive surplus this year.
Trade with China: Australia's annual exports to China rose from US$108.29 billion in August to US$109.42 billion in September – a new record high. Australia's annual imports from China rose from US$69.88 billion to US$71.20 billion – also a record high.
Export & import prices: Import prices rose by 1.9 per cent in the September quarter and were up by 9.8 per cent on a year ago – the fastest annual growth rate in 9½ years. Export prices rose by 3.7 per cent in the quarter and were up by 14.0 per cent over the year – the fastest annual growth rate in 12 months.
Terms of trade: Based on today's data we expect that the ratio of export prices to import prices (terms of trade) rose by around 1.0 per cent in the September quarter. Net exports are forecast to contribute 0.5 percentage points to economic growth.
China Caixin purchasing managers' index: China's Caixin private sector manufacturing purchasing managers' index rose by just 0.1 point to 50.1 points (survey: 49.9 points) in October. A level above 50 denotes in expansion in activity.
China's factories are managing to barely keep their heads above water as the trade war with the US escalates. Both the official and private sector manufacturing gauges released over the past couple of days are a smidgen above 50, the level which differentiates expansion from contraction.
The good news from an Aussie perspective is that we are continuing to weather the storm. In fact, Australia's external trade balance is improving, having recorded the largest surplus in 19 months and a positive trade balance in every single month this year. Australia continues to set records with its top trading partner, China. Both annual exports and imports climbed to new apexes in September.
Surging export volumes of base metals, iron ore and LNG boosted trade income, supplemented by a lift in rural goods and export services. Imported capital goods dipped, led lower by aircraft, machinery and industrial equipment.
In terms of implications for inflation, import prices are certainly worth watching – especially across the business sector. The annual growth of import prices was the fastest in 9½ years. The key question is whether Australian businesses are confident enough to pass on the higher import cost to consumer and business products.
While the lift in import prices was dominated by higher oil prices, seven of the ten price groupings reported higher prices in the quarter. And export prices lifted too, up by 14 per cent over the year to September – the strongest annual growth rate in 12 months. Rising coal and natural gas prices, boosted overall prices, with eight out of ten price groupings up during the quarter.
The trade surplus increased from a revised $2,342 million in August (previously $1,604 million) to $3,017 million (consensus: +$1,700m) in September. It was the largest surplus in 19 months and the 9th successive surplus this year. The rolling annual surplus rose from $11.23 billion to $13.74 billion – the highest level in 10 months.
Exports of goods and services rose by 0.8 per cent (goods also rose by 0.6 per cent).
Imports of goods and services fell by 1.1 per cent (goods fell by 1.5 per cent).
Exports were up by 15.9 per cent on a year ago (strongest growth rate in 12 months), while imports were up 9.2 per cent.
Rural exports rose by 0.8 per cent. Rural exports rose due to a $45m lift in wool and sheepskins and $11m increase in cereal grains and preparations exports. But meat exports fell by $32m.
Non-rural goods rose by 3.0 per cent. Gold exports fell by 26.0 per cent after rising by 12.7 per cent in August. Non-rural exports were driven higher by a $551 million increase in metal ores and minerals; $270m lift in other mineral fuels and $50m increase in transport equipment. But coal, coke and briquettes fell by $141m.
Within imports, consumer imports rose by 0.6 per cent; capital goods imports fell by 9.1 per cent and intermediate goods imports rose by 1.9 per cent.
Consumption goods imports were up by 6.0 per cent on a year ago, while capital goods imports were down by 2.4 per cent and intermediate goods imports were up by 21.3 per cent.
The net services deficit contracted from $94 million in August to just $9 million in September.
ago. Exports to China account for 33.4 per cent of Australia's total exports, just off record highs.
accounted for 24.08 per cent of Australia's total imports – a record high.
Australia's rolling annual trade surplus with China fell from $38.41 billion to $38.22 billion.
Australia's rolling annual trade deficit with the US fell from $18.46 billion to $18.20 billion. Imports from the US account for 10.27 per cent of total imports in September, above the record low of 9.88 per cent in June.
The Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reported that import prices rose by 1.9 per cent in the September quarter after rising by 3.2 per cent in the June quarter. Import prices increased by 9.8 per cent over the year – the fastest growth rate in 9½ years. Overall, import prices were driven by higher crude oil prices.
The ABS said: "The main contributor to the rise is Petroleum, petroleum products and related materials (+5.1 per cent), reflecting tight worldwide supply due to global production restrictions and capacity constraints.
Manufactures of metals, n.e.s., rose 8.3 per cent, due to rises in prices of household products of iron and steel.
The depreciation of the Australian dollar against the US dollar had an upward effect on prices, including for Office machines and automatic data-processing machines (+3.3 per cent), Miscellaneous manufactured articles, n.e.s. (+2.5 per cent) and Articles of apparel and clothing accessories (+3.1 per cent).
These rises were partially offset by falls in prices for Gold, non-monetary (-3.8 per cent) and Metalliferous ores and metal scrap (-15.6 per cent).
Seven of the ten broad import categories recorded price increases in the September quarter.
Export prices rose by 3.7 per cent in the September quarter after a 1.9 per cent rise in the June quarter. Export prices were up by 14.0 per cent over the year – the strongest annual growth rate in 12 months.
The ABS said: "Prices received for many of Australia's mineral fuel commodities rose in the September quarter 2018. Gas, natural and manufactured, rose 12.9 per cent, in response to strong demand for LNG in northern Asia and supply constraints. Export contract prices for LNG are also influenced by the international crude oil price with a two to four month lag.
Metalliferous ores and metal scrap rose 3.6 per cent, reflecting demand from China for iron ore.
Coal, coke and briquettes rose 4.0 per cent, due to increasing demand for thermal coal.
Cereals and cereal preparations rose 12.9 per cent, due to the impact of dry weather globally in many wheat and barley growing regions.
Petroleum, petroleum products and related materials rose 6.5 per cent, reflecting tight worldwide supply due to global production restrictions and capacity constraints.
Offsetting these rises were falls in prices for Gold, non-monetary (-3.2 per cent) and Non-ferrous metals (-2.2 per cent).
Eight of the ten broad export categories recorded price increases in the September quarter.
The ratio of export prices to import prices (a proxy for the terms of trade) rose by around 1.0 per cent in the September quarter.
The monthly International Trade in Goods and Services release from the Bureau of Statistics provides estimates on exports and imports of physical goods (such as coal, beef and computers) and services (such as travel receipts). The balance of goods and services (BOGS) is a narrower description of Australia's external position than the current account estimates. The import data is a useful gauge of consumer and business spending while exports reflect global demand as well as domestic influences such as drought.
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) provides quarterly estimates of export and import prices. The figures assist is gauging inflationary pressures in the economy.
Australia's exporters are key beneficiaries of a weaker Aussie dollar, thanks mainly to increasing interest rate differentials with the US. And rising iron ore, LNG and coal prices are a boon to Australia's fiscal position.
Despite concerns over slowing Chinese economic growth, demand for our natural resources and services remains buoyant. Australia's miners are increasingly busy and workers are being encouraged to return to work on big-ticket projects in the Pilbara.
We estimate Australia's terms of trade to have lifted by around 1 per cent in the September quarter.
Commonwealth Bank economists forecast net exports to add 0.5 percentage points to September quarter GDP growth.
CommSec expects interest rate settings to remain unchanged until late 2019.


The Irish Times has completed the acquisition of all of the publishing and media interests of the Cork-based Landmark Media group, which owns the Irish Examiner newspaper and other titles.
In a statement to employees on Tuesday, The Irish Times said it "looks forward to working closely with all staff in the combined companies in building a successful media group".
The company said its objective was to create a "dynamic and vibrant business" that could "sustain itself for the longer term and where the respective media assets – national, regional and radio – will contribute significantly to the Irish media market".
It said the combined scale provided "opportunities for consolidation, to secure existing revenues and will provide a platform to build and grow new digital readers and revenues".
The "core identity and independence" of the respective news titles will be retained under the deal.
The Irish Times is "fully committed" to working with the respective union groups in each company on restructuring in the combined group".
In a statement, Séamus Dooley, Irish Secretary of the National Union of Journalists, said; " We welcome the commitment of the new owners to honour existing agreements and to work in a collaborative way with the trade unions.
"In a challenging time for the media industry, the acquisition by The Irish Times is a welcome development. Our priority is the preservation of terms and conditions of employment.
Landmark published two daily titles – the Irish Examiner and the Evening Echo, and seven weekly regional papers (the Waterford News & Star, the Roscommon Herald, the Western People, the Nationalist, the Kildare Nationalist, the Laois Nationalist, and the Naas and Newbridge Nationalist).
In addition it has interests in three local radio stations – 75 per cent in both WLR and Beat, and 17.6 per cent in Red FM in Cork. Its online publishing activities include breakingnews.ie, irishexaminer.com, recruitireland.com and benchwarmers.ie.
The share-purchase agreement between The Irish Times and Landmark was signed on December 5th. The deal was later approved by the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, Minister for Communications Denis Naughton, and the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland.
The deal marks the end of the Crosbie family's ownership of the Irish Examiner, which dates from 1872, when journalist Thomas Crosbie took over the proprietorship from John Francis Maguire.


Cultivating a wine collection to connect terroir, people, food and culture.
Founded in 2009, Artisan's Cellar cultivates and distributes a portfolio of wines selected by eight national importers, our own hand-picked direct imports, and wine in a variety of formats. Our Italian selections, driven by tradition and the relationship between food and wine, have grown to represent nearly all of the country's 20 regions. We have stepped beyond Italy into France to further our collection from winemakers who farm with respect for soil life and the environment, and produce wines without additives or unnecessary manipulation that focus on terroir and honesty. As we grow, we are continuing down this path into other regions including Spain, Chile, Slovenia, Croatia, and the United States. We built a new building, expanded our staff, and launched the largest keg filling operation in the eastern United States in 2014.
We're grateful for the interest and enthusiasm you share for the wines in our portfolio. We pledge our continuous effort toward being your most reliable source to learn about, taste, and enjoy both old favorites and many new wine offerings to come.

I think we are ready to say that has has offically developed a new kind of seizure….. fan…freaking….tastic ;( He has 2 episodes that fit the description of complex absence seizures. 1 last night and 1 this morning. He also had 1 gran mal, a partial slow drop and a full backwards fall with head slam on hardwood floors drop today.
He has also learned to try and spit out whatever medicine remains in his mouth after we syringe it in him. Seriously….I hate it! We literally have to sit on top of him and force his mouth open just to get it in.
Days like today are hard when we are working so hard to manage the seizures and he still needs medicine and he still needs meals for tomorrow. My mom was able to come down and spend some time with me this afternoon since Chuck has school and or work late everynight this week.
Asking for prayer for strength and answers to get us back to days without seizures.
Thanks Tammie! I was reading this post aloud to Chuck and Gabriel piped in with "let's pray for the kids". He folded his hands and we all prayed together. 🙂 One of the many pieces of Grace is the fact that Gabriel has many, many great moments everyday.
Oh, Amy-how awful. :(. Want some company tues/wed/thurs night? Let me know. I'll bring you some dinner too!!
Thanks for sharing our prayer concern with others! We know God is listening. Yes. I would love to see you….Thursday night would be super if it works for you.

Q: Detecting state of a button when in parallel with LED I am using an Arduino to try to update an old lighting system in my house. The previous solution was a 20-30 year old Lutron Lumaster system. However, it was struck by lightning last summer and is no longer in commission.
Part of the lighting system are several low voltage switches distributed around the house. Each switch contains an LED (this indicates if the overhead lights for that switch are on or not) and a push button.
Because I couldn't find much info about this system online, I have been trying to reverse engineer how it works to put an Arduino in its place.
What I need to do is:

*

*Be able to toggle the LED in the wall plate on and off.

*Detect if the button in the wall plate is pushed or not.

The only issue is, the button and the switch are wired in parallel. Meaning at the electrical panel there are two wires. One marked "COM" and one marked "A". If you put a ohm meter across COM and A, you'll find pushing the button toggles it from something like 500K Ohms to 10K Ohms. Also, if you were to put 12V across COM and A (with + on COM) you would light the LED.
Is there a way to both drive the LED and detect the button push? I can figure out how to do or the other, but not both at the same time. Not entirely sure its possible.

A: First you have to know how the switch is wired. You can open it to check what is inside, or guess through measurements. It could be like this, this schematic shows several possibilities.

The button could be across the LED (wire labeled 2 on schematic) or across a LED+resistor in series (labeled 1) and there could be a resistor R2 in series with the whole thing, or maybe not.
To investigate this, don't use a ohmmeter as this will give bogus measurements across a diode like a LED. Instead you can power the switch from a +12V or +5V power supply with a resistor in series (say, 1k). Then measure voltage across the switch when the button is not pressed, and when the button is pressed.
When the button is not pressed you'll have a LED in series with a resistor, so by using two supply voltages (+12 and +5) and knowing the LED color (thus its forward voltage) you can determine the series resistor value. Then when pressing the button and measuring the voltage across the switch, you can determine how the button is wired. If foltage drops ot near zero then it will be option "1" in schematic above and no R2.
After you do this you can determine whether you'll need to use ADC to sample your voltage. The ideal solution would be to have a clearly defined logic level, but that will depend on the way the switch is wired. So, please update the question when you have more info.

A: *

*Switch/LED configuration to light the LED when the switch is 'on'. In this case the LED is not across the switch.

*Switch/LED configuration to light the LED when the switch is 'off'. In this case the LED is across the switch.

LED current limiting resistors are not shown.

Foreword: Over the course of this collection, I have almost subconsciously written about groups of people and how they interact with the government rather than issues, for people are politics. Now I would like to write about what keeps contributes to the way these groups interact with their government.
As a lower-income, African-American, adolescent female, the demographics I fit under are wide but first and foremost, I am an institutionalized learner. At least 8 hours of my day, 5 days a week is dedicated to sitting in a classroom, to learn about things that exist outside of it. This chapter explores how governmental decisions about education affect the state of democracy in this country.
Democracy and Education from Amani Bey on Vimeo.
The way schools are run and the way they are funded is directly reflective of the plutocratic state of this country.
In 2001, due to shifting financial status, the School District of Philadelphia's School Board was replaced with the SRC, the School Reform Committee. The five members, appointed by the mayor and governor, take the responsibility out of the hands of taxpayers, principals, and students, due to financial failure, and leave them with no say. Democracy left the PhilaSD in 2001.
Sartre said, "Education is to help the human being come to terms with his individual project, accept his freedom and facticity, and emerge as the unique human being that he is." True education is where all knowledge converges. Interdisciplinary learning is not yet a universal practice in classrooms and the lack of this practice leads to voters unable to fully appreciate the gravity of each issue and the ramifications of their decisions. Validating a person's experience empowers them to use what they have learned inside and out of the four walls of a classroom to make conscious decisions and uplift their communities instead of becoming products of them (see my chapter on Gangs).
However, the high stakes testing from both a school district and universities' standardized test requirements transform education from a learning experience to an accrual of information with no practical use. It has been said if "You provide independent people capable of independent thought and you will virtually destroy the economy". Docile students become docile voters.
It is no surprise " schools that have 90 percent or more minority students spend $733 less per student than schools with 90 percent white students enrolled"(Rolling Out). Colored peoples are always at a disadvantage in education, and therefore in an economy that was built on their backs. In 2011-2012, in York County 91 out of 100 students were suspended from school and in 2011, 1 out of every four Philadelphia School District student was suspended.Out of these statistics, an overwhelming majority were students of color. Schools with less funding garner more disciplinary action and turn into the jails the money taken from schools build. In 2014, $400 million was budgeted towards prisons in Pennsylvania, while $216 million was cut from education funding.
Lower Merion, a school district in Pennsylvania that spends $22,140 per pupil( 2011 Axis Philly ), has a suspension rate of 3%. The students that live in this school district belong to households whose median income is $107,326 (US Census), which is more than 3 times that of the median income of Philadelphia residents. Lower Merion students have higher graduation and college attendance rates. Education is also becoming a commodity for companies to sell and buy, being funded by the state. Charter schools have been heralded as reformative saviors in the broken school system. In fact 28% of philadelphia school district funding goes to charter schools, while only 10% goes to high schools.
Plutocracy is the state of any government that is run by the rich. Lower Merion's school district is only one of the many governmental advantages given to the rich in this country. Education is key for power, but if those in economic power, seem to be the only ones who advance by receiving the best education, the power remains in the hands of those who've had it all along. This lack of space for some in a classroom directly correlates with the lack of space for them in the economy and plutocratic state of this country.

In the past, many artists relied on getting signed by a record label to get serious promotion. Record labels would usually front the expenses that come with music promotion sites. Since this was the industry standard, bands were always trying to become signed and get radio play. If an artists had their music played on the radio, it was a surefire bet that they were going to sell records. But today, many things have changed for the record industry with the birth of digitally recorded music. Artists can now record their own music with little to no expense, and even promote their own music. With this, millions of artists across the world are turning to the worlds largest social network, MySpace.
With the iPhone app Instagram (it's working on an Android version as we speak), artists and bands alike can maximize their exposure by letting in complete strangers to look at their personal photos and ultimately, have them buy their music. How?
With the increase in bootlegging in the music industry, many artists are now taking it upon themselves to distribute their own CD's. If you want to be apart of the group, your going to need to know 2 things, one, it's not easy work, and two, you have to vision your goal ahead of time.
The important thing is to get you onto these sites when they start and are fresh. MusicTV Video Share is new and will launch out in full this September. You have the opportunity to be the first there and that means front page! Google cache!
You should have a mailing list that people can sign up to from your all your online channels. You can periodically send people news and also offers and promotions for merchandise etc. This can help you make money quite early on that you can reinvest back for more and more promotions.

Heavy Rains, Floods Leave 8 Dead, 12 Missing in South India
Associated Press Sunday, 17 October 2021 04:00 AM
NEW DELHI (AP) — At least eight people have died and a dozen are feared missing after a day of torrential rains in the southern Indian state of Kerala.
Rescue operations were underway on Sunday after heavy rains lashed the state the day before, triggering flash floods and landslides, the Press Trust of India (PTI) news agency reported.
The National Disaster Response Force and the Indian Army deployed teams to help with rescue efforts in two of the worst-hit districts, Kottayam and Idukki, where a dozen people are still feared missing.
On Saturday, when the heavy rains began, television reports showed people wading through chest-deep waters to rescue passengers from a bus that was nearly submerged by the torrents flooding the roads.
Officials said the intense rainfall has subsided, but they fear the death toll could rise as relief and rescue operations continue.
Home Minister Amit Shah said the federal government was monitoring the situation in Kerala and would provide all possible support to the state. "Praying for everyone's safety," he said in a tweet.
In 2018, Kerala suffered catastrophic floods when heavy downpours amid the monsoon season killed 223 people and drove hundreds of thousands from their homes.

Living Deeply
by Marilyn Schlitz
Humans have always been fascinated by the possibility of a "larger reality." Especially in times of transition -- a sudden illness, a failed relationship, the death of a loved one, an unplanned shift in career -- we may sense that there is more being to our everyday world, more dimensions than we usually comprehend.
Such moments often carry the signature of grace, for so often they leave us aware of ourselves in relation to things beyond. Many report that their sense of "I" becomes part of a larger "we," and that they recognize connection as the true basis of reality. For some, this awakens an imperative to foster their kinship or oneness with a greater whole.
What does transformation mean? How do we cultivate transformative, life-changing experiences? These questions have inspired a research program at the Institute of Noetic Sciences to better understand human capacities for self-transcendence and unitive experience. Because this complex topic has rarely been formally researched, our team began by collecting stories of personal experiences, which we analyzed to distinguish between exceptional experiences (typically of short duration and not crucial in life impact) and genuinely transformative, life-changing experiences.
We then invited 40 world-renowned scholars, teachers, and practitioners from various traditions to be interviewed on videotape about how a practice, whether established or self-created, may lead to transformation. The participants included Ram Dass, Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D., Swami Veda, Stanislav Grof, M.D., Shakti Parwha Kaur Khalsa, Zenkei Blanche Hartman, and the Venerable Pa-auk Sayadaw. Our preliminary analysis identified several stages in the transformative process.
Preparation: People who undergo transformative changes -- those that seem to lift them out of themselves -- seldom fully understand them, nor can they easily talk about them. Something extraordinary may be birthed, but without a support system, the experiences may frighten and destabilize. This may be the catalyst for seeking out some form of transformative practice.
Cultivation: Transformational practices can take many forms. These include contemplative practices, somatic therapies, walks in nature, healing ceremonies, devotional prayer, or what George Leonard and Michael Murphy call Integral Transformative Practice, which combines elements of various disciplines including martial arts and meditation. The Venerable Pa-auk Sayadaw, a Burmese Buddhist meditation teacher, noted: "The transformation process is in many different stages and occurs in various time frames. It also differs from one person to another, depending on personal efforts and various mental characteristics. Therefore, no particular pattern of transformation is possible to mention." Despite the vast range of individual differences, teachers agreed that transformational practices can open us to a greater sense of authenticity and the nature of transpersonal realities.
Weaving Practice into Daily Life: Rather than focus on their practices, however, most of the teachers said they sought to close the gap between living life and transformative practice. Many teachers defined transformation as embodying the virtues of compassion, loving-kindness, gratitude, forgiveness, altruism, honesty, and joy, to name a few. As insight meditation teacher Sharon Salzberg noted: "If we remember that our spiritual life is not for ourselves alone and our private satisfaction of having had a great experience, but is about how we live, then it becomes a very keen motivator. ... The classical understanding is that spiritual life is how we live every day, how we relate to our children, how we relate to our parents, how we earn a living, how we speak to one another, how truthful we are."
Even the practice of research can have transformative capacities, as our team has learned. A transformative science asks the researchers to become what is being studied -- to know it as a subject. While the goal of science is objectivity, nothing is as transformative as direct experience. As the Buddha said so many centuries ago, "I have given you guidance. You have to do your practice." By seeking to awaken hearts as well as minds, we allow the love for life to guide our inquiry and our practice.

These reusable puffy stickers are filled with royal charm - and accented with glittering details! Layer them onto the double-sided background board to fill four royal settings with glamorous princesses, outfitted in mix-and-match ball gowns, jewelry, scepters, shoes, and crowns. There's even a princely poodle to keep them company! Simply peel up the reusable stickers to change the palace scenes, restyle the princesses, and tell a royal story from your own imagination! Bonus: The sturdy background board folds to neatly store it all away, and a diecut handle makes it great for travel, too! 4+ years.


Acceptability and clinical outcomes of first- and second-trimester surgical abortion by suction aspiration in Colombia. Since partial decriminalization of abortion in Colombia, Oriéntame has provided legal abortion services through 15 weeks gestation in an outpatient primary care setting. We sought to document the safety and acceptability of the second trimester compared to the first-trimester surgical abortion in this setting. This was a prospective cohort study using a consecutive sample of 100 women undergoing surgical first-trimester abortion (11 weeks 6 days gestational age or less) and 200 women undergoing second-trimester abortion (12 weeks 0 days-15 weeks 0 days) over a 5-month period in 2012. After obtaining informed consent, a trained interviewer collected demographic and clinical information from direct observation and the patient's clinical chart. The interviewer asked questions after the procedure regarding satisfaction with the procedure, physical pain and emotional discomfort. Fifteen days later, the interviewer assessed satisfaction with the procedure and any delayed complications.

HAZARD MISSES MATA
Chelsea star Eden Hazard says that he regrets the loss of Juan Mata to Manchester United. The Spaniard was sold to United last January for a fee of around £ 37 million. This was seen as a good piece of business by Chelsea since he was largely a substitute in the final six months of his Chelsea career. Mata, though, was an integral part of Chelsea's success in the previous two years and this saw him named as the club's Player of the Year on two occasions. Hazard has risen to prominence since the departure of Mata.
The Belgian international enjoyed his best season till date after scoring 14 league goals last season. He has been in good form this season as well with two goals to his name so far. Hazard will undoubtedly be one of the players to watch when Chelsea visit to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United in one of the games of this weekend. The blues will be going to Old Trafford looking to extend their lead at the top of the table after Manchester City suffered a defeat against West Ham on Saturday. A win for Chelsea will take them eight points clear of City, which is a huge advantage at any stage in the season.
"I was sad when Juan left because he was such a good player. But at the end of his time at Chelsea, he was on the bench and he didn't play a lot. When you're a great player, it's normal that you want to play, so I respect his choice, but I wanted him to stay here because it was a pleasure to play with him. Juan is my friend, but on Sunday he plays for Man United, I play for Chelsea and I want to win," said Hazard.

The Hume Library at CCT is named for John Hume, the distinguished politician, peace campaigner and Nobel Laureate who was born in Derry, Northern Ireland. He topped a popular poll conducted by national broadcaster RTE in 2009 to nominate 'Ireland's Greatest', and in addition to his Nobel Peace Prize he has received the Gandhi Peace Prize and the Martin Luther King award, all in recognition of his contribution to the Northern Irish Peace Process.
The Hume Library is the college's information and learning hub, and is the site of its Centre for Teaching and Learning, which seeks to foster best practice in the delivery of the CCT's core educational principles.

The fashion house of Gucci has long been famous for its stylish designs, beautifully made clothes and superb accessories. Most years there is at least one 'must have' Gucci handbag that all the best dressed celebrities are proud to carry on their shoulders and the same is true for the sunglasses that Gucci make for women. Each year they bring out several new designs that are simply gorgeous and quickly become a best seller. If you are considering making the investment ready for this summer season, read on for a list of the top 5 sunglasses Gucci make for women.
1. The Cuir Gold sunglasses are rectangular in shape with a unique diamond texture effect that is picked out in contrasting colour at the bottom of the frames and along the ear stem. The frame itself is composed of different shades a single main colour, of which there are several options, and the lenses are coordinated perfectly with a two tone effect.
2. If you are looking for sunglasses Gucci (did you know in Denmark we call them solbriller gucci) make for women that are a little different and quirky then check out the Havana range. The plastic frames are lightweight and enclose square shaped lenses. The front of the frame is finished in a tortoiseshell effect and the ear stems are finished in a turquoise colour that is picked up in the colour of the lenses. These do have different colour options but of all of those that are available, these get my vote.
3. Next we have the Butterfly range of sunglasses that Gucci make for women and these really are something that little bit special. The frame is very thin and lightweight and the lenses come in a variety of warm and unusual colours. Each pair of sunglasses also has a delicate filigree butterfly placed at the top hand corner of one of the lenses, with the trademark G discretely located on the ear stem. These sunglasses are simply beautiful.
4. Oversized sunglasses have long been the choice of the fashion conscious and this season will be no different. Gucci have created a range of oversized glasses called the Marina which feature oval frames with a simple metal band holding the lenses in place. The ear stems are the big design detail on these sunglasses though with the small metal hinge leading to a connecting bead design to add a unique aspect to the overall design.
5. Finally for those that want to use their sunglasses to really make a statement then how about the Fashion Show range. They are inspired by the fashion of the 1970s and feature circular frames and lenses in a solid colour. They also have a high brow bar that is created in a contrasting metal and the ear stems feature the Gucci logo as standard. This is one range of sunglasses that Gucci make for women that will definitely not be to everyone's taste. However, if you love to make an impact and are not afraid to be a little different then these sunglasses may well be the perfect choice for you.

THIS WEEK TAYLOR Swift is in court testifying that 55-year-old former DJ David Mueller groped her during a meet-and-greet before a concert in 2013.
Mueller is seeking $3 million in damages for her claim. Swift is counter-suing him for $1. 27-year-old Swift alleges that Mueller assaulted her in the meet-and-greet by lifting her skirt and groping her bum during a photo-op.
During Taylor's testimony, she was asked a number of questions, to which she had some pretty quick replies.
Mueller claimed that he had possibly touched her rib cage, if he had touched her anywhere at all. As TMZ's leaked photograph shows, his hand is nowhere near her rib cage.
Buzzfeed then reported that Mueller's line of questioning drifted towards why there were no direct witnesses of the assault.
It's important to remember that Taylor Swift didn't even bring this to court. Mueller took the case to court to sue Taylor after he lost his job due to the photo that emerged that appeared to depict him groping her.
I'm not going to allow your client to make me feel like it is in any way my fault because it isn't.
Taylor was questioned on the stand for almost an hour.
