Flight number:
PMS1670
On March 17, 2020, about 0919 central daylight time (CDT), a Cessna 208B, N274PM, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident about 7 nautical miles northwest of La Crosse, Kansas. The airline transport pilot was fatally injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 135 on-demand cargo flight. The Planemasters Ltd. flight, PMS1670, was being operated on an instrument flight rules flight plan from Wichita Dwight D Eisenhower National Airport (ICT), Wichita, Kansas, to Hays Regional Airport (HYS), Hays, Kansas. A review of Federal Aviation Administration preliminary air traffic control (ATC) communications and commercially available radar and Automatic Dependent SurveillanceBroadcast data revealed that the flight departed ICT about 0751 CDT. At 0825, the HYS automated weather observation service (AWOS) was reporting, in part, winds from 080° at 11 knots, visibility 1 statute mile, and overcast clouds at 200 ft above ground level. About 0831, the radar and ADS-B data were lost as the airplane descended through 4,000 ft while being vectored for the instrument landing system (ILS) approach to runway 34. Shortly thereafter, the pilot executed a missed approach, and about 0843, the airplane was re-acquired by radar and ADS-B. The pilot stated to ATC his intention to attempt the ILS approach to runway 34 a second time. At 0841, the HYS AWOS indicated that visibility had dropped to ¼ statute mile in fog. About 0853, radar and ADS-B data were again lost as the airplane descended on the instrument approach. About 0859, the airplane was re-acquired by radar northwest of HYS. At that time, the pilot stated his intention to divert to Great Bend Airport (GBD), Great Bend, Kansas. A review of radar and ADS-B data showed the airplane begin a turn to the south toward GBD while climbing to about 7,000 ft. About 0918, the airplane began a descent and left turn. The last radar and ADS-B targets were observed about 0918:48. The wreckage was discovered in a field about 0945. The airplane's tail and wings were visible above ground, with the forward fuselage and engine section buried several feet under the terrain, consistent with a near-vertical, high-speed impact. The main landing gear was bent aft towards the tail with the left and right main wheel protruding from the ground. The smell of Jet-A fuel was present at the accident site.

According to the flight instructor, he and the pilot rated student receiving instruction were operating under instrument flight rules in instrument meteorological conditions. He reported that throughout the flight the airplane accumulated light rime ice. He recalled that after holding at a Very High Frequency Omni-Directional Range (VOR), they completed a VOR approach, executed the missed approach procedure, set the power to climb at the airspeed of 130 knots indicated airspeed and began to climb to 5000 feet. He reported that as they climbed they encountered freezing rain, the airspeed began to deteriorate and the degree of ice accumulation increased from light to moderate. He reported that all of the airplane's de-ice systems were functioning yet he was not able to maintain altitude. He determined that landing at the destination airport was not an option and executed a forced landing in an open field. He affirmed that during the landing the airplane bounced several times before coming to a stop. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the firewall, forward pressure bulkhead and puncture holes in the airplane skin. The pilot reported that there were no mechanical failures or anomalies prior to or during the flight that would have prevented normal flight operation.

Wichita-Dwight D. Eisenhower (Mid-Continent)
Aircraft flight cycles:
The airline transport pilot was departing for a repositioning flight. During the initial climb, the pilot declared an emergency and stated that the airplane "lost the left engine." The airplane climbed to about 120 ft above ground level, and witnesses reported seeing it in a left turn with the landing gear extended. The airplane continued turning left and descended into a building on the airfield. A postimpact fired ensued and consumed a majority of the airplane. Postaccident examinations of the airplane, engines, and propellers did not reveal any anomalies that would have precluded normal operation. Neither propeller was feathered before impact. Both engines exhibited multiple internal damage signatures consistent with engine operation at impact. Engine performance calculations using the preimpact propeller blade angles (derived from witness marks on the preload plates) and sound spectrum analysis revealed that the left engine was likely producing low to moderate power and that the right engine was likely producing moderate to high power when the airplane struck the building. A sudden, uncommanded engine power loss without flameout can result from a fuel control unit failure or a loose compressor discharge pressure (P3) line; thermal damage prevented a full assessment of the fuel control units and P3 lines. Although the left engine was producing some power at the time of the accident, the investigation could not rule out the possibility that a sudden left engine power loss, consistent with the pilot's report, occurred. A sideslip thrust and rudder study determined that, during the last second of the flight, the airplane had a nose-left sideslip angle of 29°. It is likely that the pilot applied substantial left rudder input at the end of the flight. Because the airplane's rudder boost system was destroyed, the investigation could not determine if the system was on or working properly during the accident flight. Based on the available evidence, it is likely that the pilot failed to maintain lateral control of the airplane after he reported a problem with the left engine. The evidence also indicates that the pilot did not follow the emergency procedures for an engine failure during takeoff, which included retracting the landing gear and feathering the propeller. Although the pilot had a history of anxiety and depression, which he was treating with medication that he had not reported to the Federal Aviation Administration, analysis of the pilot's autopsy and medical records found no evidence suggesting that either his medical conditions or the drugs he was taking to treat them contributed to his inability to safely control the airplane in an emergency situation.
The pilot's failure to maintain lateral control of the airplane after a reduction in left engine power and his application of inappropriate rudder input. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's failure to follow the emergency procedures for an engine failure during takeoff. Also contributing to the accident was the left engine power reduction for reasons that could not be determined because a postaccident examination did not reveal any anomalies that would have precluded normal operation and thermal damage precluded a complete examination.

After climbing to and leveling at 15,000 feet, the airplane departed controlled flight, descended rapidly in a nose-down vertical dive, and impacted terrain; an explosion and postaccident fire occurred. Evidence at the accident site revealed that most of the wreckage was located in or near a single impact crater; however, the outer portion of the left wing impacted the ground about 1/2 mile from the main wreckage. Following the previous flight, the pilot reported to a maintenance person in another state that he had several malfunctioning flight instruments, including the autopilot, the horizontal situation indicator, and the artificial horizon gyros. The pilot, who was not a mechanic, had maintenance personnel replace the right side artificial horizon gyro but did not have any other maintenance performed at that time. The pilot was approved under an FAA exemption to operate the airplane as a single pilot; however, the exemption required that all equipment must be operational, including a fully functioning autopilot, flight director, and gyroscopic flight instruments. Despite the malfunctioning instruments, the pilot chose to take off and fly in instrument meteorological conditions. At the time of the loss of control, the airplane had just entered an area with supercooled large water droplets and severe icing, which would have affected the airplane's flying characteristics. At the same time, the air traffic controller provided the pilot with a radio frequency change, a change in assigned altitude, and a slight routing change. It is likely that these instructions increased the pilot's workload as the airplane began to rapidly accumulate structural icing. Because of the malfunctioning instruments, it is likely that the pilot became disoriented while attempting to maneuver and maintain control of the airplane as the ice accumulated, which led to a loss of control.
The airplane's encounter with severe icing conditions, which resulted in structural icing, and the pilot's increased workload and subsequent disorientation while maneuvering in instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with malfunctioning flight instruments, which led to the subsequent loss of airplane control. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's decision to takeoff in IFR conditions and fly a single-pilot operation without a functioning autopilot and with malfunctioning flight instruments.

The aircraft was substantially damaged when it collided with a hedgerow during a forced landing following a loss of engine power near Wichita, Kansas. The loss of engine power occurred about 4-1/2 minutes after departing Wichita Mid-Continent Airport (ICT), Wichita, Kansas. The commercial pilot, who was the sole occupant, was fatally injured. The airplane was registered to the Federal Express Corporation and operated by Baron Aviation Services Incorporated, under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 135 while on an instrument flight plan. Day visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the cargo flight that had the intended destination of Garden City Regional Airport (GCK), Garden City, Kansas. According to air traffic control transmissions, at 0734:35 (hhmm:ss), the pilot requested an instrument flight rules clearance from ICT to GCK. Radar track data indicated that the airplane departed runway 19R approximately 0737:45. At 0738:18, the tower controller told the pilot to change to the departure control frequency. The departure controller then cleared the flight to proceed direct to GCK and to climb to 8,000 ft mean sea level (msl). The airplane continued to climb on a westerly heading until 0742:02, at which time the airplane began a left 180-degree turn back toward the departure airport. According to radar data, the airplane had reached 4,700 ft msl when it began the left turn. At 0742:13, the pilot transmitted that his airplane had experienced a loss of engine power and that he was attempting to return to the departure airport. At 0742:31, the pilot asked if there were any nearby airports because he was unable to reach ICT. The departure controller provided vectors toward an airstrip that was approximately 2.5 miles southeast of the airplane's position. At 0743:46, the pilot advised that he could not see the airstrip because the airplane's windshield was contaminated with oil. At 0744:57, the pilot's final transmission was that he was landing in a grass field. The airplane was located about 2.2 miles south of ICT at 1,600 feet msl, about 300 feet above ground level (agl) at the time of the last transmission. The radar data continued northeast another 1/2 mile before radar contact was lost at 0745:15. A witness to the accident reported that he was outside his residence when he observed the accident airplane overfly his position. He recalled that the airplane's propeller was not rotating and that he did not hear the sound of the engine operating. He stated that the airplane landed in a nearby agricultural field on a northeast heading. He reported that during the landing rollout the airplane impacted a hedgerow located at the northern edge of the field. The witness indicated that the pilot was unresponsive when he arrived at the accident site and that there was a small grass fire located 8 to 10 feet in front of the main wreckage.

While en route to the destination airport, the pilot turned on the cabin heater and, afterward, an unusual smell was detected by the occupants and the ambient air temperature increased. When the pilot turned the heater off, dark smoke entered the cabin and obscured the occupants' vision. The smoke likely interfered with the pilot's ability to identify a safe landing site. During the subsequent emergency landing attempt to a field, the airplane's wing contacted the ground and the airplane cartwheeled. Examination of the airplane found several leaks around weld points on the combustion chamber of the heater unit. A review of logbook entries revealed that the heater was documented as inoperative during the most recent annual inspection. Although a work order indicated that maintenance work was completed at a later date, there was no logbook entry that returned the heater to service. There were no entries in the maintenance logbooks that documented any testing of the heater or tracking of the heater's hours of operation. A flight instructor who flew with the pilot previously stated that the pilot used the heater on the accident airplane at least once before the accident flight. The heater's overheat warning light activated during that flight, and the heater shut down without incident. The flight instructor showed the pilot how to reset the overheat circuit breaker but did not follow up on its status during their instruction. There is no evidence that a mechanic examined the airplane before the accident flight. Regarding the overheat warning light, the airplane flight manual states that the heater "should be thoroughly checked to determine the reason for the malfunction" before the overheat switch is reset. The pilot's use of the heater on the accident flight suggests that he did not understand its status and risk of its continued use without verifying that it had been thoroughly checked as outlined in the airplane flight manual. A review of applicable airworthiness directives found that, in comparison with similar combustion heater units, there is no calendar time limit that would require periodic inspection of the accident unit. In addition, there is no guidance or instruction to disable the heater such that it could no longer be activated in the airplane if the heater was not airworthy.
The malfunction of the cabin heater, which resulted in an inflight fire and smoke in the airplane. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's lack of understanding concerning the status of the airplane's heater system following and earlier overheat event and risk of its continued use. Also contributing were the inadequate inspection criteria for the cabin heater.

The airline's chief pilot was giving a newly-hired pilot a required competency/proficiency check. Memory data from the airplane's global positioning system showed the airplane made
steep 360-degree turns to the left and right before continuing towards a practice area at gradually decreasing airspeed and altitude. A low cloud ceiling prevailed. Witnesses said they
heard both engines "sputter, then quit," and saw the airplane clear a grove of trees, stall, and strike the ground. The landing gear was down and the flaps were in the approach setting. Both propellers were in the low pitch/high rpm setting, and bore little rotational signatures. Both engine fuel supply lines contained only residual fuel. Those familiar with the chief pilot's flying practices stated that he always followed a certain routine when giving a check ride. The routine consisted of the following: After performing steep 360-degree turns, he would ask the trainee to configure the airplane for landing and demonstrate minimum control maneuvers. Prior to executing steep turns, he would turn the boost pumps on. At the completion of the maneuver, the pumps would be turned off. The investigation revealed that there are unguarded fuel shutoff switches next to the boost pumps, and the circumstances of the accident are consistent with the these fuel shutoff switches being inadvertently placed in the off position, instead of the fuel boost pumps.
The pilot-in-training inadvertently shutting off both engine fuel control valves causing a loss of power in both engines, and the pilot's failure to maintain control of the airplane resulting in a stall. Contributing to the accident was the chief pilot's inadequate supervision of the pilot-in-training.

According to witnesses, the airplane departed runway 35 and was observed flying in and out of the clouds. Several of the witnesses observed the airplane initiate a turn to the west. One witnesses commented that it was dark but he could still see the silhouette of the airplane. He observed the airplane descend below the trees. All of the witnesses reported flames and "fireballs." On scene evidence was consistent with the airplane impacting trees in a left turn. The airplane was destroyed. An examination of the airplane, flight controls, engines, and remaining systems revealed no anomalies. Weather observations and radar data depicted low clouds, and restricted visibility due to rain and mist, in the vicinity of the airport. Toxicological examination revealed cetirizine, an antihistamine, consistent with use within the previous 12 hours. Most studies have not found any significant impairment from the medication, though it is reported to cause substantial sedation in some individuals.
The pilot's failure to maintain clearance from the trees. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's flight into known adverse weather conditions and the low clouds and visibility.

According to the flight crew, they exited the clouds approximately 250 feet above ground level, slightly left of the runway centerline. The pilot not flying took control of the airplane and adjusted the course to the right. The airplane rolled hard to the right and when the pilot corrected to the left, the airplane rolled hard to the left. The airplane impacted the ground in a right wing low attitude, resulting in substantial damage. Further examination and testing revealed anomalies with the yaw damper and spoileron computer. According to the manufacturer, these anomalies would not have prevented control of the airplane. Greater control wheel displacement and force to achieve a desired roll rate when compared with an operative spoileron system would be required. The result would be a slightly higher workload for the pilot, particularly in turbulence or crosswind conditions. An examination of the remaining systems revealed no anomalies.
The pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control during the landing.

## Overview

Swift version of https://github.com/dopcn/DOPDropDownMenu

Easy to use TableView style dropdown menu.

![image](https://github.com/javalnanda/JNDropDownMenu/blob/master/Example/JNDropDownSample/demo.gif)

## Setup
The only thing you need to do is import `JNDropDownMenu`, create an instance and add it to your `View` and conform to its datasource and delegate.
```swift
import JNDropDownMenu
```
```swift
// pass origin of menu, height - this will be height of collapsed menu not the expanded menu, width - it is optional, pass custom width or pass nil to utilize screen width
let menu = JNDropDownMenu(origin: CGPoint(x: 0, y: 64), height: 40, width: self.view.frame.size.width)
        menu.datasource = self
        menu.delegate = self
        self.view.addSubview(menu)
```

Just implement datasource and delegate same as that of Tableview

```swift
extension ViewController: JNDropDownMenuDelegate, JNDropDownMenuDataSource {
    func numberOfColumns(in menu: JNDropDownMenu) -> NSInteger {
        return 2
    }

    func numberOfRows(in column: NSInteger, for forMenu: JNDropDownMenu) -> Int {
        switch column {
        case 0:
            return columnOneArray.count
        case 1:
            return columnTwoArray.count
        default:
            return 0
        }
    }

    func titleForRow(at indexPath: JNIndexPath, for forMenu: JNDropDownMenu) -> String {
        switch indexPath.column {
        case 0:
            return columnOneArray[indexPath.row]
        case 1:
            return columnTwoArray[indexPath.row]

        default:
            return ""
        }
    }

    func didSelectRow(at indexPath: JNIndexPath, for forMenu: JNDropDownMenu) {
        var str = ""
        switch indexPath.column {
        case 0:
            str = columnOneArray[indexPath.row]
            break
        case 1:
            str = columnTwoArray[indexPath.row]
            break
        default:
            str = ""
        }
        label.text = str + " selected"
    }
}
```
## Customization
There are very minimal customization available currently. You can alter color and font before setting menu datasource as follow:

```swift
    let menu = JNDropDownMenu(origin: CGPoint(x: 0, y: 64), height: 40, width: self.view.frame.size.width)
    //customize
    menu.textColor = UIColor.red
    menu.cellBgColor = UIColor.green
    menu.arrowColor = UIColor.black
    menu.cellSelectionColor = UIColor.white
    menu.textFont = UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 15.0)
    menu.updateColumnTitleOnSelection = false // Override titleFor(column: Int, menu: JNDropDownMenu) if you are setting this to false
    menu.arrowPostion = .Left

    menu.datasource = self
    menu.delegate = self
    self.view.addSubview(menu)
```

##### Find the above displayed examples in the `Example` folder.

## Installation

### CocoaPods

JNDropDownMenu is available through [CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org). To install
it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

```ruby
pod "JNDropDownMenu"
```
## Change Log
V 0.1.4
- added support to pass custom width for menu
- expand menu now utilize entire screen height instead of 5 rows.

V 0.1.5
- added support to provide custom column title and disable change of title on row selection.

Set updateColumnTitleOnSelection flag to false. This will disable change of column title on row selection.
Note: This will also disable highlight of last selected row item.
```swift
 menu.updateColumnTitleOnSelection = false
 ```
Override following function of JNDropDownMenuDataSource to provide custom title for column
```swift
func titleFor(column: Int, menu: JNDropDownMenu) -> String {
        return "Column \(column)"
    }
```
Note: If you don't override this, by default it will pick first object of column array as a column title and by default it will update the title of column on row selection.

V 0.1.6
- added support to define arrow position to left or right. Default is right.

Usage
```swift
menu.arrowPostion = .Left
```

Queensland pays tribute to the late Warwick Parer
QUEENSLAND Premier Campbell Newman and Treasurer Tim Nicholls have honoured former Liberal senator Warwick Parer, the chairman of Stanwell Corporation and one-time federal minister for resources and energy.
Lou Caruana
Parer, who oversaw the Stanwell Corporation's decision to reinstate coal-fired power generation, died last week.
As a Queensland senator for 16 years and a Howard-era resources and energy minister, he served his state and country proudly and with great dignity, Newman said.
"Our thoughts are with his wife, Kathi, their seven children and many grandchildren, and I say on behalf of all Queenslanders, we are privileged and grateful for his lifetime of service," he said.
Nicholls said he was shocked and saddened by the loss of a great friend and colleague.
"Queensland will be the poorer for the loss of Warwick's guidance and vision. His strong leadership as chairman of Stanwell over the past few years has been invaluable," he said.
"As well as a distinguished career in the public service, Warwick also lent his business acumen and perspective to the field of innovation as a former chair of the Energy and Transport Advisory Sector of CSIRO and has been chair of the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital Foundation since 2010."

After respected sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens' eagle and double eagle coins started circulating, it was assumed that his acclaimed design for the latter would make it to the half eagle and quarter eagle pieces, too. However, the U.S. Mint ultimately decided on a different strategy. Saint-Gaudens finished his double eagle design shortly ahead of his death in 1907. That design, which showed Liberty walking in the viewer's direction, looked difficult to properly scale down for the smaller pieces, however.
At the preparatory stage the Mint's then-Chief Engraver, Charles Barber, commented that placing all of the legally mandatory legends on these new coins would be challenging. While the double eagle's edge reads "E Pluribus Unum," transferring this placing would have been impractical. However, in May 1907, before the double eagle had even begun circulating, the ruling U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt, had already decided to depart from a major tradition. He opted for the eagle and double eagle to differ in design; accounting for this, it perhaps shouldn't significantly surprise that he later decided on an unorthodox method of production for upcoming coins.
Those coins, the quarter eagle and half eagle, would be depressed, rather than raised, in design. It was deemed that this would help in preserving each piece's flat plane. It was also believed that this approach would make the coins easier to stack. Though after they were released, numismatist Samuel Chapman cited an inadequate ability to stack was, in his view, one of the coins' drawbacks. Bela Pratt, a Boston sculptor, was handed the responsibility of making these coins' obverse design, which depicts a male Indian wearing an elaborate headdress. Inspiration for this design came from a photograph of an Indian, whose identity is unknown, from Pratt's photo collection.
To Pratt's design, Barber made some changes which were not appreciated by the original sculptor. After seeing produced versions of the new coins, Pratt complained, writing to his mother that the U.S. Mint had "knocked spots" out of his design, which he had previously been "proud of." He branded Barber a "butcher or blacksmith" and opined that the Mint's staff "made a mess." This "mess" has not, however, prevented the design from attracting praise in the time since. Cornelius Vermeule, an art historian, hailed this design as daring and rich in imagination compared to many other U.S. coins, and said that Pratt warranted admiration for his coins and medals.
You could readily become an Indian quarter eagle admirer yourself when an MS62 form of that coin reaches you. This can occur after you have ordered such a piece from our stock; however, first check that we do have supply of an Indian Head quarter eagle of MS62 condition. The design's various intricate details are recessed in 4.18g-weight metal, including .900 gold. Also included with the 0.12094 troy ounce gold content is 10 percent copper. Don't expect the coin to arrive showing a rare date, however. It will be a more easily obtainable "common date" piece, an ideal coin with which to enjoy a novice-friendly start to coin-collecting endeavors.

The front was surged together from several smaller pieces. Gunta Stölzl's textile designs came to mind when I was making this pillow– at least that is what attracted me to the fabric when looking through all of Barb's textiles while I was in Spokane. The back of the pillow is a nubby linen with an exposed mint green zipper and sky blue leather loop. You can see that Barb is in the middle of designing some raised beds for her back yard (which I am excited to see because Barb is an excellent mosaic artist and I am looking forward to seeing what she comes up with) and it adds a nice contrast to these pictures.
Today I dropped off 7 new pillows at Hallworth for an exhibition that I am part of. It is for the Legends of La Cienega Event this week. The exhibit is Friday and Saturday and below is the blurb about it from the website. Come check out my pillows in person!

Francesc Viñas i Renom (Badalona, ca. 1833 - 11 de març de 1925) fou un polític liberal català. Alcalde de Badalona entre 1887-1890 i el 1898, en el marc del torn pacífic entre partits a la Restauració Borbònica.

Fou nomenat alcalde de Badalona a la mort del seu nebot Francesc d'A. Guixeras. Durant el seu mandat va rebre i acompanyar a la reina regent Maria Cristina d'Habsburg-Lorena durant la visita que va efectuar a Badalona, el 2 de juny de 1888, en companyia del president del Consell de Ministres, Práxedes Mateo Sagasta. S'hostatjaren a la torre d'Evarist Arnús amb el seu fill, el rei Alfons XIII, que aleshores només tenia dos anys. Aquesta visita afavorí la concessió de l'ús del títol d'excel·lència per a l'Ajuntament de Badalona i al seu alcalde per Reial Decret el 4 de desembre de 1888. Durant el mandat es va inaugurar el Mercat Maignon (1889), el primer edifici d'aquest tipus, que havia de satisfer les necessitats dels ciutadans en una localitat en plena expansió demogràfica.

El 27 de gener de 1898 va ser elegit alcalde de nou, substituint a Joan Torres i Viza, el qual havia estat nomenat després de la dimissió de Joaquim Palay i Jaurés el mes de gener. Fou substituït al cap d'uns mesos pel també liberal Pere Renom i Riera.

El seu germà, Pere Viñas, fou industrial i mercès de la seva influència afavorí els liberals a Badalona mentre Francesc era alcalde.

Red Line: The center line of the rink dividing the rink in half. This line gets its name from its color in NHL rinks.
Blue Line: There are two of these lines painted blue on an NHL rink. They are located on each side of the rink a short distance from the red line. These lines mark the entry into the offensive zone. Of course, for play to continue, the attacking team must all be on-sides or in other words, the ball must enter the offensive zone before a player.
ALTERNATIVE: Floating Blue Line
In a lot of rinks, due to size or flow of play, a floating blue line is used. Once the attacking team enters the offensive zone properly (on-sides), the defensive team must clear the ball over the Red or Center Line to clear the zone. This allows for an expanded offensive zone to pump up the scoring, spread out the players and allow for a more free-flowing game.
Icing Line: This line extends from each goalpost to the sides of the rink. If your league has an icing rule, the opposing team cannot shoot the ball all the way behind the icing line from the other side of the red line. This is designed to keep play moving and force the teams to avoid a game of delay by constantly shooting the ball all the way to the other side of the rink from their side of the red line. If a team commits this violation of the rules, the referee blows the whistle to stop play and a face-off occurs in the offending teams' zone.
Note: If a team in killing a penalty, they are allowed to shoot the ball to the other side of the rink without a whistle.
Offsides &
On-sides When entering the opposing teams' zone, the attacking team must be on-sides. That means the ball must enter the opposing teams' zone before an attacking players. If this rule is violated, the referee stops play and a face-off occurs either just outside of the zone or from the point of the offending pass.
Clearing the zone: This refers to a team who is attempting to shoot the ball out of their defensive zone.
The Point: This is usually a reference to a player who plays one of the two points or corners of the power play for the attacking team. Typically, it is a defensemen.
Penalty: A rules violation that puts the offending player in the penalty box for a designated time (usually 2 minutes) unless the opposing team scores before the end of the penalty time. If the opposing team scores before the expiration of the penalty, the penalized players remaining penalty time is wiped out and he is allowed back on the rink.
Penalty Time: Usually it is a stop clock meaning that the penalty clock stops with any stoppage of play. This makes the penalty seem longer for the penalized player especially if the game clock continues to run during the penalty. Some leagues use a longer penalty time of 3 minutes running time meaning that the penalty timer does not stop even for a whistle.
Power Play A power play is when a team has an extra player on the rink due to a penalty to the opposing team. This means that one team has 5 players to 4 on the opposing team on the rink or 4 on 3 or 5 on 3 for that matter. (A team cannot have less than 3 on the rink at one time.) The power play penalizes the opposite team for a rule violation giving the other team a chance to score a goal during the penalty time. The power play team attempts to gain control of the ball in the offensive zone and "set up" their scoring opportunities (due to having an extra player on the rink) by spreading out the defensive team. The power play team attempts to control the ball and work it to the defensemen (or pointmen) for a slap shot while screening the goalie or working the ball down low by the goalie for a tap in goal or quality shot.
Penalty Kill: The team that commits a rules violation is penalized and must serve a penalty. This means that they have one less (or two) player on the rink compared to the other team. This means that the penalty killing team is outnumbered and must play as a cohesive unit to kill off the time in the penalty until their penalized player is allowed to return to the rink.
As a means of strategy, a team has two defensemen and two forwards who play a box. Picture a box with four corners on the rink in the defensive zone. The two defensemen play the corners near the goalie and the two forwards play the corners closer to the blue line. The defensemen try to cover the two to three players on the offensive team near the goalie while also trying to clear a loose ball out of the zone, block shots and make sure that the goalie can see any shots by trying to move the offensive players out of the way of the sight line of the goalie.
The forwards try to get in the way of the shots by the offensive pointmen and make it difficult for the forwards or defensemen to set up a play or make a pass. The penalty killing players must be willing to block shots and disciplined so that they don't chase the ball all over the rink thereby allowing the opposing team an easy goal because they got out of position.

On Dec. 18, President Obama signed into law an omnibus appropriations bill and a package of tax provisions, both of which include items that will impact farmers and the agricultural industry. Among other measures, the omnibus spending act repeals the mandatory country of origin labeling law, increases funding for the National Institute of Food and Agriculture and continues funding for the Market Access Program and Foreign Market Development program at current levels. Relevant tax benefits include a five-year extension of the bonus depreciation for property acquired and placed in service during 2015 through 2019. For more specifics on the agriculture-related spending and tax measures, see the USCA blog, What's New.
Presdient Obama also signed into law the Surface Transportation Board Reauthorization Act. The U.S. Canola Association (USCA) joined 34 agricultural organizations in a letter of support for the legislation earlier this year. It includes common-sense reforms to improve the Surface Transportation Board (STB) such as strengthening STB's independence, improving how it functions, requiring more transparency on the status of STB proceedings and complaints brought before the agency, and providing for a voluntary arbitration process to resolve disputes involving unreasonable rail rates and practices.
Good news for biodiesel: The industry will be operating at near capacity if the 2017 biodiesel use mandate is met, reported AgWeek. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Nov. 30 announcement on Renewable Fuel Standard volumes set the domestic level of biodiesel use to 2 billion gallons a year by 2017 — double the minimum amount required by the original law. What does this news mean to the oilseed sector? It takes a little more than 7.5 pounds of vegetable oil to produce a gallon of biodiesel, so the demand for canola may increase, depending on its price relative to other feedstocks, AgWeek noted.
About 300 people, mostly farmers and agribusiness workers, attended the Northern Canola Growers Association's (NCGA's) 19th annual Canola Expo Dec. 8 in Langdon, N.D. This city is in Cavalier County, which leads U.S. canola production. The state's terrific 2015 canola yields likely prompted a high turnout at the event and will encourage producers to grow the crop in 2016, said Barry Coleman, NCGA's executive director, in AgWeek.
Results from the 2015 Minnesota Canola Production Centre (CPC) were presented at the Minnesota Canola Council's annual winter meeting in December in Roseau. The 2015 CPC was located on Magnusson Farms northwest of Roseau with a satellite site on the Peter Grafstrom farm east of Roseau. Trials were spearheaded by the University of Minnesota's Nancy Ehlke, Donn Vellekson and Dave Grafstrom, and included trials focused on canola rotation; nitrogen rate, source, and timing; intensive versus traditional canola management; seeding rate and row spacing; and variety and systems comparisons. A full report of the 2015 CPC results, including comprehensive agronomic information for each trial, will be on the Council's website.
"Keep all your holiday desserts waistline-friendly by baking with canola oil," wrote registered dietitian Julie Upton in an article on holiday favorites with health benefits for PopSugar.com. In addition to its low saturated fat content, a study on canola oil shows it may reduce belly fat, she noted.
When it came time to celebrate Hanukkah in December, even the White House reached for canola oil, according to The New York Times. A story on holiday reception preparations in the White House noted the kitchen fries thousands of latkes in canola oil.
FoodNetwork.com tapped nutrition experts for tips on lightening up holiday fare without affecting flavor. Among the suggestions, registered dietitian Jill Weisenberger recommended substituting solid fats with healthier fats, including canola oil.
Canada's canola output was expected to increase 5 percent in December 2015 after expectations of a 15 percent decline in November, reported Bloomberg Business. "Everybody's jaws just hit their desk," said an analyst at PI Financial in Winnipeg, Manitoba. "It's a game-changer for canola." Canola output will rise to 17.2 million metric tons from 16.4 million in 2014 as yields climb 8.3 percent to 38 bushels an acre – the second-highest ever, following beneficial rain, according to a December Statistics Canada report.
Canola futures rose more than 1 percent Dec. 1, 2015, in part due to news from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that it would raise biofuel mandates. Canola markets were also propped up by the Canadian dollar and a revised production outlook from Australia, reported The Western Producer. Australia's canola production is forecasted at 2.99 million tonnes, down from the previous forecast of 3.15 million tonnes, according to the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences.
Washington State University (WSU) will offer regional oilseed workshops Jan. 19 in Colfax, Jan. 21 in Odessa and Jan. 26 in Dayton. In prior years, the Pacific Northwest Direct Seed Association hads joined the WSU Oilseed conference, but WSU regional extension specialist Karen Sowers told Capital Press this year's workshops will take a more regional approach. The workshops will also cover alternative uses for oilseed crops, such as livestock grazing or harvesting for silage. Register at css.wsu.edu/biofuels.
The Great Plains Canola Association (GPCA) will host Canola College 2016 on Feb. 18 at the Chisholm Trail Expo Center in Enid, Okla. The event is open to anyone with an interest in the canola industry, including experienced or first time growers, crop insurance agents, members of agricultural governmental agencies, and canola industry service and product providers. Speakers will address topics such as variety selection, advanced production practices, and managing canola in conventional and conservation tillage systems. Contact Ron Sholar, GPCA executive director for more information or register at www.canola.okstate.edu.
Cibus, a leader in non-transgenic breeding and precision gene editing, announced today the launch of its 50-50-50-50 Grower Program. The program includes four different bonuses to farmers who purchase and plant Cibus SU Canola (Sulfonylurea Tolerant) or sign a Cargill non-transgenic grain production contract. Rewards include a volume bonus, loyalty bonus, Cargill contract bonus and an expenses-paid trip to San Diego. More information at www.cibuscanola.com.
A few hundred Canadian farmers are expected to participate in a three-year competition to produce a record 100-bushel yield on a 50-acre plot of dryland canola, reported GrainNews. The Canola 100 challenge launched in 2015, jointly sponsored by the consulting firm Agri-Trend Agrology, Glacier Farm Media and John Deere. It is open to all Canadian canola growers. The grand prize includes use of a fleet of John Deere equipment.
The USCA annual membership and board of directors meeting will be at the Phoenix Park Hotel in Washington, D.C., Feb 22-24, 2016. Click here to register and submit payment. Also, the annual Canola on Capitol Hill reception will be on Tuesday, Feb. 23 from 5:30 to 7:30 pm in the Hart Office Building.
New on the USCA blog: John Van Dam, president and general manager of HyValley Seed Management Inc., wrote about working with millions of honey bees every summer on his canola fields in Colorado's San Luis Valley. Van Dam brings in 12 to 16 flatbed trucks of hives each year to pollinate the crop. Visit the blog, What's New, for more commentary and discussions of key issues impacting the U.S. canola industry.

If Kemal Scarpello was baking his sourdough breads, and serving his wood-fired-oven pizzas, in Dublin, he would likely be the most famous artisan in Ireland. You would already have read a million weekend colour pages about the splendiferous quality of his breads, have pored over eulogies to the crispness of the pizza base cooked in Ruby Red, their on-the-road pizza van, odes to the quality of the ingredients he piles on those pizzas, and testaments to the splendiferous quality of the Cetrone olive oil he imports.
But Kemal isn't cooking in Dublin. His wood-fired bakery is in Newtowncunningham, in County Donegal. Way up North. Lucky Donegal. Unlucky Dublin.
Mind you, Mr Scarpello doesn't need the acclaim. His aim is to keep his business as an authentic, artisan, enterprise, so small is beautiful. But the simple fact of the matter is that Kemal's Scarpello & Co. is one of the very, very best: this man has the magic, and his loaves will simply transport you to another place, such is their precisely delineated crust and crumb, the warmth of the flavour, the savour and texture of the loaves. To sit in the comfort of Rathmullan House at the weekend, with Ruby Red fired up outside, with a bottle of Kinnegar Brewery ale and a Scarpello & Co. pizza in front of you, is to enjoy one of those moments when you say to yourself: "It doesn't get better than this".

MET's FunCompany Presents THE SNOWY DAY And Other Stories By Ezra Jack Keats
This story, packed with humor and fun, is a celebration of childhood joys and the wonder of imagination.
Maryland Ensemble Theatre's FUNCompany invites you to follow Peter and his friends as they set out to celebrate the first snowfall of the year with snowball fights, making snow angels, and playing in the snow. Based on the Caldecott Award-winning book by Ezra Jack Keats. This story, packed with humor and fun, is a celebration of childhood joys and the wonder of imagination.
"Whether it's the wonder of fresh snowfall, the delight of whistling for the first time, the awe in finding a special hidden treasure, or the rush of writing a letter to someone special" says Director Sierra Young, "The Snowy Day and Other Stories follows our young protagonist, Peter, as he experiences some of life's simple pleasures - along with its challenges. Within this delightful collection of stories- including "Whistle for Willie," "Goggles!," "A Letter to Amy" and Caldecott Winner "The Snowy Day"- the audience joins Peter in navigating the world through his lens through the use of vibrant visuals, shadow puppetry and strong movement for theatrical storytelling.Reminding us all that even in difficult times, there is immense power in finding joy as an act of resistance; and to never discount the small moments of life that make us who we are."
The Snowy Day and Other Stories by Ezra Jack Keats production team includes: Director Sierra Young, Production Manager Melynda Burdette Wintrol, Stage Manager Olivia Pietanza, Technical Director Cody James, Scenic Designer Joann Foltz, Lighting Designer Corey Brown, Sound Designer Lauren Johnson, Costume Designer Julie Herber, Properties Designer Shayden Jamison, and Puppet Designer Dre Moore.
The Cast features Ezra Lavala, last seen in the FUNCompany production of Junie B. in Jingle Bells, Batman Smells, as Peter. The ensemble of characters throughout the four stories in the production are played by Mumbi Mwaura and MacKenzie Stewart (MET's FUNCompany's Bob Marley's Three Little Birds) and Mark Wallace (MET's Detroit '67). MET Apprentice Eliana Damaska understudies all roles.
The Snowy Day and Other Stories by Ezra Jack Keats opens on Saturday, February 11 and runs through Sunday, March 5. Performances are Saturdays at 10:30 am and 1:30 pm and Sundays at 1:30 pm. Arrive early to enjoy interactive craft, game, and photo booth stations.
ASL Interpretation and Audio description services can be arranged in advance through the box office.
Tickets are $15 per person. A limited number of Pay What You Will tickets are available for each performance starting at $5 each, while supplies last. Tickets may be purchased by phone at (301) 694- 4744, online at marylandensemble.org, or in person at the MET box office.

I really wanted to keep going but I can't take yet another piece of garbage film. This year has been a tale of highs and lows. SO MANY BAD MOVIES! I just can't take it.
So I'm bowing out with DIE HARD! I've not touched on it before, but did mention it earlier in the series due to Alan Rickman in Love Actually. This evening will be tinged with sadness as I get to watch what is, IMO, the greatest villain performance in cinematic history until Heath Ledger's Joker.
You know the plot. Bruce Willis goes to visit his estranged wife on Christmas Eve. "Terrorists" take over the building. Fun ensues.
This was a genre defining movie. Until this film action movies were always bullet proof hero, unlimited ammo, and barely a scratch. Die Hard was the first film where the hero gets the absolute crap kicked and beaten out of him. Whereas prior movies ended with Arnie or similar brushing the dust off victorious, John McClane ends the movie cut, bleeding and battered. This forever changed action movies, for the better.
"But it's not that Christmassy". Nonsense. The score through is CHRISTMAS MUSIC! It's set during a CHRISTMAS PARTY! AND IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE! AND IT ENDS WITH DEANO!
Do I really need to say anything else?
I WILL be carrying on to see if I can WATCH 50 Christmas movies in the run up. However from this point it will mostly be dupes. Stuff I've already reviewed. Or older stuff I've just not gotten around to doing. (Jingle All The Way for example).
The snark train is parked. But the movie train will roll on.
The train is pulling into the station. Once movie #30 is done (and I already have made sure it's a classic I've not yet reviewed) I am DONE DONE DONE! I will create one final post listing the movies. However it will largely be movies I've already reviewed. I want to get to 50 movies but there is NO WAY I can get there as to be honest ONE MORE BAD MOVIE WILL BREAK ME! So I'm putting my faith in this. After the two Mrs Miracle films, which were great… Here's hoping a gender swap will be as equally entertaining.
Rob Morrow, who I don't remember seeing since Northern Exposure finished, is the lead. At this point I'm 20 minutes in and both my wife and I know his acting is reminding us of SOMEONE but we can't quite put our finger on WHO! It's very frustrating!!!!
Massive glaring WalMart product placement. Find this especially nauseating these days.
Morrow's performance aside this is a nothing film. Barely any Christmas. Really dull. I got halfway through before basically giving up. I can't take it anymore, these terrible movies.
Michelle Trachtenberg is a writer who decides to track down the secret santa that sent her the gift that made her decide to be a writer when she was a kid.
First thing you notice is HOLY CRAP! THIS MOVIE IS OVERFLOWING WITH AFRICAN AMERICAN ACTORS! These movies are usually so whitewashed it's a miracle if you see one person who isn't white. Here we are with some ACTUAL DIVERSITY!
I'm going to give it an extra Jingle Bell just for this!
The movie also deals with gentrification, which is also not a common topic.
Kudos for having the audacity to have an inter racial couple I guess. Just a shame it wasn't more Christmassy.
Worse still it falls into TOTAL cliche at the end. I am not being hyperbolic here. This actually caused me physical pain to have to sit and watch. Awful, terrible cliche that just kills the movie stone dead. To the point I basically quit watching. I am SO DAMN SICK of this lazy, cheap writing in these movies. There is absolutely NO excuse for this garbage. A long time ago during the Hollywood writers strike, I wrote a piece about the shamefully poor, lazy, formulaic writing for a particular sitcom on the air at the time, and how in a fair world their lazy, cliche spewing writers would never ever work again.
This year we've seen some great Christmas movies that avoided ALL the cliche. It IS possible. Sadly this is the laziest of the lazy. This absolutely stinks when the movie had more than the token African American. They could have done that AND not written cliched drivel… But no. They totally took the lazy, cheap route and frankly any writer that takes this route when writing deserves nothing but your disdain.
Shamefully lazy film. Unworthy of the wear on my remote or my thumb to skip the commercials in it.
1 out of 5 Jingle Bells (and remember, I gave it an extra for not being white washed).
That rare thing… A BRITISH Christmas movie. Jim Broadbent as Santa! YES! I love Broadbent to bits so I'm really looking forward to this.
This is the first I've not done that with. Hooked for the entire thing. Absolutely brilliant film. Best I've seen so far this CME I think.
Santa crashes while testing his new sleigh over London. Rafe Spall plays Steve, an ex-con. When Santa is arrested trying to rescue his missing reindeer, it's left to Steve and his estranged son Tom to save Christmas.
I will definitely be watching this again before the big day. Great story, great cast, uproariously funny in spots… Rafe is brilliant as Steve and Broadbent… Well when has he ever played a bad role?
Also of note: Executive Producer, well one of them, is Ridley Scott.
WATCH THIS FILM! YOU'LL LOVE IT!
5 out of 5 Jingle Bells… And 12 Candy Canes!
I have a philosophy. Well… HAD more like. That was never give up on a movie. Stick it out to the bitter end. I find as I get older my patience has ended and now I give a movie 25 minutes. Now a movie has to be really REALLY bad for me to quit. I watch a lot of films and I can count on ONE HAND the number I've given up on and quit in the last 3 years.
Which brings me to this… Thing. I should have known better. The first Christmas Vacation is an absolute classic. Chevy Chase is a comedic genius. Beverly De Angelo (I can never spell her name!) is gorgeous, and terrific as the long suffering wife. It has Johnny Galecki, who I was a huge fan of before he sold his soul to Chuck Lorre. Juliette Lewis… JULIETTE FREAKIN' LEWIS! Amazing supporting cast. Commits to the gags. (The cat.) Comedic situations are organic and while far fetched make sense. In short it's a terrific movie.
Then there's this cinematic abomination. I say cinematic but I very much doubt it saw the inside of a movie theater unless it came in on the sole of someones shoe.
I figured I'd give it a chance though. Movie starts out badly with Eddie having a kid… Who is perfectly normal and smart. So nothing we've ever seen before. Then we cut to Eddie, losing his job to a chimp because the chimp is smarter… HO HO! SUCH COMEDY!
It goes downhill from there. Yes, there is actually a lower place. There is a comedic set piece with a broken tap in the bathroom. With Chevy in front, and John Hughes behind this would have probably been an hysterical comedic set piece. However with Quaid in front and god knows who behind it's just played out with no finesse, ability or soul. And it drags on. And on. And on. The secret of comedy is knowing when to go, and when to stay. Clearly nobody involved realised this and let's this gag beat itself to death.
Which brings us to the main issue. Christmas Vacation pulls you in immediately with the car scene. There are at least 2-3 good laughs in the opening few minutes. Twenty five minutes into Christmas Vacation 2 I hadn't laughed once.
I have to draw the line somewhere. There must be an end point. There must be a level below which I will not drop. A bare minimum entertainment line a movie MUST meet to even warrant being allowed, let alone viewed.
Christmas Vacation 2 is so far below that line I can't even see it. No soul, no character, no finesse. Just some random images thrown onto a screen in the name of Christmas.
This movie gets nothing. No, not even ZERO because I've rated other movies that before, and implied that there is no lower place to go.
Sadly there is. And Christmas Vacation 2 found it.
High hopes for this. All star cast. Cinematic release. It can't be bad, right?
John Goodman and Diane Keaton star as the second generation of four, all of whom come together for Christmas Eve dinner.
Keaton and Goodman are slightly mismatched. I love both but I never really bought them as a married couple. This aside they are excellent, as is everyone else in this this film.
Terrific to see Alan Arkin in something. Not seen him in anything for a long time.
The premise of the movie is we see the disparate elements of this extended family on Christmas Eve as they all head to this yearly family event. I won't spoil any of the storylines but they're all fun and interesting.
This a really good film.
No that's not a typo… And WE'VE DONE IT! BEATEN LAST YEARS RECORD. Last year we submitted and tapped out at 24… Here is the 25th movie of this season, and the train rolls on!
Official plot: "A family must save Christmas when Santa lands on their roof and loses his magic bundle." Magic bundle?!?!
This stars Jennifer Beals (What a feeling!) and Rick Roberts who, by sheer coincidence was also the Dad in Movie #24.
Movie starts with Santa departing the North Pole. Festive! Shortly thereafter he crashes in Milwaukee and is rescued by a family who of course don't believe he's Santa except the youngest kid. The parents of said family are the usual business crazy types who pay their kids little attention so along the way they can learn what Christmas is supposed to be all about.
I LOVED this movie. From start to finish it's about SANTA! There's a few funny gags and it's just generally a warm, Christmas hug.

Markus Golser (* 9. Juli 1973 in Salzburg) ist ein professioneller österreichischer Pokerspieler und Unternehmer. Zusammen mit dem deutschen Pokerprofi Johannes Strassmann gründete er die Online-Pokerschule und Community CardCoaches. Gemeinsam mit der deutschen Pokerspielerin Sandra Naujoks rief Markus Golser das Wohltätigkeits-Projekt "All In 4 Kids" ins Leben, bei dem alle Pokerspieler zwei Prozent ihrer Turniergewinne an hilfsbedürftige Kinder spenden.

Werdegang
Der gelernte Bürokaufmann Golser begann als Teenager mit dem Pokerspiel. Später galt er als einer der besten Pot-Limit-Omaha-Spieler Europas. Im Jahr 2000 wurde er bei der World Series of Poker (WSOP) in Las Vegas in dieser Pokervariante Dritter. In Europa widmete sich Golser lieber dem Cash Game.

Golser gilt als vielseitiger Spieler, wenn es um High-Stakes-Turniere geht, wenngleich Pot Limit Omaha seine bevorzugte Variante ist. Dennoch lassen sich die Erfolge von Golser in mehreren Pokervarianten sehen. So ging er bei den Austrian Masters im Concord Card Casino beim No Limit Hold'em bzw. Limit Hold'em einmal als Erster und zweimal als Zweiter vom Tisch. Auch bei der Poker Wörthersee Trophy in Velden am Wörther See war er erfolgreich. Regelmäßig ist er auch bei der WSOP anzutreffen. Er belegte 2009 im Limit Hold'em den sechsten Platz und gewann ein Preisgeld von mehr als 50.000 US-Dollar. In der europäischen Turnierszene wurde Golser mit dem Start der European Poker Tour richtig aktiv. 2007 wurde er beim Main Event in Prag Fünfter und gewann rund 150.000 Euro. Seine bis dato letzte Live-Geldplatzierung erzielte er im November 2011. Insgesamt hat sich Golser mit Poker bei Live-Turnieren über eine Million US-Dollar erspielt.

Golser war von Beginn an Stammgast beim deutschen TV-Format German High Roller, bei dem er zusammen mit Herrmann Pascha und anderen deutschen Pokergrößen um große Pötte spielte. Golser ist ein Mann des Live-Spiels, dennoch spielt er seit 2006 unter dem Nickname jumper17 auch regelmäßig Onlinepoker. Ab 2007 war Golser FullTilt-Pro und immer wieder bei Events in Pot Limit Omaha anzutreffen.

CardCoaches
Zusammen mit Johannes Strassmann gründete Golser die persönliche Onlinepokerschule CardCoaches.com, die am 2. Februar 2012 in einer Betaversion online ging. Auf CardCoaches.com taten sich neben Strassmann und Golser weitere bekannte deutschsprachige Pokerspieler wie z. B. Dominik Nitsche mit dem Ziel zusammen, Anfänger kostenlos zu schulen und sie zu erfolgreichen Pokerspielern auszubilden. Auch für Fortgeschrittene bietet die Pokerplattform verschiedene Strategieartikel, Handanalysen und Coachingvideos, mit denen das eigene Pokerspiel verbessert werden kann.

Questions about Alzheimer's for Your Lansing Senior Love One? Read on for Answers!
To bolster their efforts, we've answered five frequently asked questions about Alzheimer's below. Read on to learn vital information to help a Lansing loved one dealing with Alzheimer's. To learn even more, be sure to follow our blog and Facebook page in November as we'll be sharing real life stories of families with Alzheimer's and dementia as well as ideas to help care for a loved one with these diseases.
More research is necessary to thoroughly understand the causes of Alzheimer's. However, it's generally accepted that the late-onset form of the disease (by far the most prevalent) develops slowly over decades based on a variety of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Having a close Lansing senior relative with the disease increases a person's risk, but is by no means a guarantee. As for environmental and lifestyle variables, increasing age is the most significant risk factor, but high blood pressure and diabetes can also play a role.
Alzheimer's is most commonly characterized by mental confusion and forgetfulness, but these symptoms also accompany normal aging. What's the difference? The Alzheimer's Association lists ten typical signs of Alzheimer's, including memory loss that disrupts daily life, challenges in planning or solving problems, and difficulty completing familiar tasks. They also differentiate these symptoms from the milder signs of normal cognitive decline. For instance, while a normal older Lansing senior adult might occasionally struggle to balance their checkbook or forget an important name or date and then remember it later, these difficulties are more persistent for an Alzheimer's sufferer.

Can someone help me buy a used car?
The car and engine in general are very reliable although being an ultra, it may be supercharged and they have some issues with those.
They are good vehicles, but with the age there are bound to be problems. You might want to take it to your mechanic and have it checked out before you purchase it. That way you know what your up against.

The City of Olathe, KS, Did Not Always Comply With the Requirements of HUD's Neighborhood Stabilization Program, Community Development Block Grant Program, and HOME Investment Partnerships Program
2016-KC-1005
2016-KC-1005.pdf
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of Inspector General, and Johnson County Audit Services, Johnson County, KS, audited the City of Olathe, KS, based on a hotline complaint. Our audit objectives were to determine whether (1) the complainant's allegations were substantiated, (2) the City listed the proper affordability period for the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) homes it sold, and (3) the City received maximum benefit from the HOME Investment Partnerships Program grant funds it received.
We substantiated some of the complainant's allegations. Specifically, the City did not properly allocate administrative costs to its housing rehabilitation programs, and it improperly sold an NSP home to a City employee's daughter. In addition, the City did not select applicants appropriately and ensure that its NSP waiting list was accurate and updated. In addition to the complainant's allegations, we found the City forgave its NSP promissory notes much sooner than required, and it did not fully use its HOME funds.
We recommend that the Director of the Kansas City, KS, Office of Community Planning and Development work with the State of Kansas and Johnson County to require the City to provide adequate support for $575,855 in unsupported salary costs and $38,711 in unsupported management fees or reimburse HUD from non-Federal funds any portion it cannot support. We also recommend that the City reimburse its NSP $39,500 for the promissory note that it satisfied when the homeowners sold their home before completion of the correct affordability period and up to $52,150 from the net proceeds for the promissory note that it satisfied for the home that went into claim after our review. In addition, we recommend that the City implement detailed NSP policies and procedures, checklists, and applications that disclose potential conflict-of-interest relationships. The City should receive monitoring by the appropriate grantee to ensure that it implements the recommendations. Further, we recommend that the County pursue the efficiencies to be gained by consolidating the two entities' HOME programs, and the City should amend previous HOME agreements to be aligned with the County's HOME program and release all loans that have met the 10-year affordability period.


engaged in the manufacture of iron and steel! And let me here say that tlus great work was not accompUshed by command but by example. It was the men in training, before aUuded to, who erected, perfected, and put in opera¬ tion these most marvelous enterprises of the age. And to these noble, brave, and energetic men the people of this country owe much for the far-reaching results they so thoroughly accompUshed, which have already changed the social condition of our vast territory. They have furnished us with a material which for quaUty, cheapness, and the quantity furnished in a given time is without parallel, and could not have been realized by any other known methods. Without it the builcUng of transconti¬ nental railroads would have been almost impossible. Had the rails been made in the old way out of puddled iron, with the increased traffic on the Atlantic ends of the lines, they would have been worn out before the Pacific coast could have been reached. The credit does not end here. The reduction of freight rates, owing to the general use of steel rails, is so enormous that it was said by one of our most distinguished pubUc men, the late Hon. Abram S. Hewitt, that the saving alone on the cost of transportation due to the use of steel in the place of iron would, if available, amount to a sum sufficient to pay our national debt in a comparatively short time.

Proudly proclaiming itself Europe's creative capital
Milan is a city steeped in pleasure, where shopping isn't just a lifestyle but practically a religion. The place offers doses of life and style in equal measure, with a throbbing club scene and delicious restaurants all mixed up with the biggest names in Italian fashion and design.
As Italy's fashion capital and regular trade fair host, Milan has a mind-boggling choice of accommodation. There's a surfeit of five-star luxury, such as the futuristic Boscolo Exedra Milano (Corso Matteotti 4-6), overlooking the Duomo (cathedral), and more traditionally styled choices such as the lavish Park Hyatt Milano (Via Tommaso Grossi 1) in the fashion district. There are plenty of small hotels, B&Bs and guesthouses too. Hotel Fenice (Corso Buenos Aires 2) has simple rooms with parquet floors and high ceilings and is close to the metro. Hotel Cervo (Piazzale Principessa Clotilde 10) is old-fashioned and simple, and close to the train station.
Milan is designer shopping heaven, with a vast array of glittering boutiques and homewares shops. Most of the city's designer stores glitter and beguile in the convenient central area known as the Quadrilatero d'Oro ('rectangle of gold'). Another iconic shopping spot is the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, the glass-roofed arcade that's one of the oldest shopping malls in the world; Prada has been in business here since 1913. However, to shop as the locals do, head to the city's many outlets. Some of the best include Salvagente Milano (Via F.lli Bronzetti 16), and 10 Corso Como (Corso Como 10).
Milan is Italy's most sophisticated city, so of course you can eat fantastically well. One of Milan's most famous eateries is deli-restaurant Peck (Via Spadari 9), a vast temple of gastronomy that includes a dining room and wine bar. Upmarket places cluster around the Duomo, but there are plenty of mid-range options too, such as Osteria delle Vigne (Ripa di Porta Ticinese 61) in the canal district. A particularly Milanese fashion is the penchant for aperitivi, whereby you can graze on an unlimited buffet of snacks to accompany an early evening drink (from around 6-9pm), for a small extra charge.
Carnevale Ambrosiano
February/March
Carnival is celebrated for four days longer in Milan than anywhere else. Children wear colourful costumes and throw coriandoli (coloured paper confetti), and there is an enormous procession that culminates at Milan's Duomo.
Milano Moda Donna Autunno/Inverno
Spotlight fashion shines on Milan as nearly 100 designers unveil what's hot and what's not at invitation-only shows, while parties and receptions mark the occasion all over the city.
Stramilano
Traffic is barred from the centre as local and international athletes run either the Stramilano route (15km) or a half-marathon through the centre of Milan.
Festa del Naviglio
Concerts, arts and crafts stalls, street performers, folklore events, theatre and more line the streets that surround the Navigli canal for the first half of June, and this festival culminates in a torchlight procession.
Oh Bej! Oh Bej!
Oh Bej! Oh Bej! means 'Oh so nice! Oh so nice!' in Milanese dialect, and this is a celebration of Milan's patron saint, Sant'Ambrogio, with processions, celebrations and a Christmas market. It also heralds the opening of La Scala's opera season.
