This is what it looked like when Branko first purchased this property. The home has 2.4 acres of land, a creek with a waterfall and a small home that had not been updated inside. He always believed he would live here forever but when the time came for a home addition he really knew he wanted more land. So house hunting we went.

Elizabeth Murphy: B.C. property surtax undermines cities and affordability
The province's use of the municipal tax base makes housing less affordable for both owners and renters
by Elizabeth Murphy on June 14th, 2018 at 12:44 PM
1 of 6 2 of 6
The province of British Columbia introduced a property tax surcharge that is a substantial encroachment onto the municipal tax base. It is precedent-setting in how it is proposed to be applied and will make life less affordable for both owners and renters. The government needs to reconsider this.
Property taxes are the main source of revenue to cover municipal services. But rather than B.C. using its own provincial tax base, such as the progressive top bracket of income taxes, it has chosen to impose a new surcharge on property taxes. Although this is called a "school tax", it is not about funding schools since it just goes to general revenue and is not based on a mill rate. It is a provincial tax grab of the municipal tax base.
Although the surcharge is currently proposed to only affect properties over $3 million, it has been strategically set at this rate to reduce opposition, while pressure is already building from some academics to adjust the threshold to $1 million. That would affect the entire city and most of the region.
Once a precedent is implemented, it would be much easier to expand the criteria to capture more properties. Property values have increased across the board, not just at the high end.
So while an ideological war on the "rich" is portrayed, the reality is that most average people will eventually be affected, including those who may not be affected initially.
The problem with property taxes is that they are not based on the ability to pay, so in that respect are regressive. Many of those affected are low income or average earners, who will be forced into debt or to sell. Deferral is a form of debt that requires a charge on land title to the benefit of the province, and not everyone will qualify.
For example, rentals of three units and less do not qualify for deferral, unlike a principal residence. So all of the owners of houses that have been converted into two or three rental units—or sometimes more, if unauthorized—will be forced to absorb that tax increase through rents, add debt if qualified by the bank to do so, or sell.
Tenants will be priced out and displaced. This will affect tens of thousands of rental units across the city. Only rental buildings of four legal non-strata units and more would be exempted.
For principal residences owned by those under 55 years old, or without children under 18 years, they will not qualify for deferral either. If they are already maxed out on debt financing, they too will have to sell.
Assessed value has no relationship to the amount of equity in the property. Many principal residences that could be covered by deferral, will be carrying high mortgages or reverse mortgages or lines of credit where banks may not allow deferral, regardless.
Deferral programs may also not be available or further restricted in the future. It cannot be depended upon in the long term.
But the main issue is that taxes should not be designed to be unaffordable so that most of those affected would need to go into debt to pay them. This is regressive tax policy. And it is against Canadian tax policy to tax unrealized capital gains.
City of Vancouver property taxes are already the highest in Canada for detached properties, which are those that are most typical across Canadian cities.
And the City of Vancouver removed three-year across-the-board averaging of assessed values in 2016, in favour of only targeted averaging affecting 10 percent of "hot" properties that increase above the average. This means that property taxes have gone up for 90 percent of property owners on top of the base annual increases.
Vancouver already pays a disproportionate amount of current school taxes, which also go into general revenue. Revenues collected from Vancouver cover 111 percent of the Vancouver school district budget, while the provincial average is only 46 percent. This means Vancouver is subsidizing the rest of B.C.
So even though Vancouver and the Metro area already pay more than its share of school taxes and subsidizes the rest of the province, B.C. is proposing to add this "school tax" surcharge. It will further increase the Metro Vancouver area's share where most of the properties that would be affected by the surcharge are located.
A number of municipalities have raised concerns with the Ministry of Finance, including the District of North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Richmond, and Surrey. But where is the City of Vancouver's mayor? So far, missing in action, at least publicly.
Counc. Adriane Carr said that discussions among councillors in Metro Vancouver have raised concerns. She questions why the province is using property taxes to fund schools and other provincial responsibilities and says that school funding should come from provincial revenue sources. Otherwise, it affects the ability of municipalities to raise the revenues needed for municipal services.
However, we have seen this before. In the 1990s, a "Luxury Tax" was proposed on properties above $500,000 by then NDP minister of finance Glen Clark. It threatened the seat of then minister of municipal affairs Darlene Marzari. If that had not been withdrawn, through inflation it would have eventually applied to all properties across the city and region, including most condos.
Former NDP premier Mike Harcourt is now urging the government to take a "second look" at the latest surcharge on property taxes, like he had to do in the 1990s.
"All of the taxes being loaded onto property undermines the municipal tax base and makes life less affordable for everyone. It is regressive since it is not related to the ability to pay. The province should be using its own more progressive income tax base," Harcourt said. "Expanding school and housing programs is the right thing to do, but increasing property taxes is the wrong way to do it."
Marzari says this current proposal is "the encroachment of provincial jurisdiction into municipal authority and the direct percentage 'take' of cash from the assessed value rather than using a traditional mill rate to fulfill the civic budget. It will tax people out of their homes and threatens the NDP's narrow majority backed by the B.C. Greens, especially for (Attorney General) David Eby's riding."
But like the 1990s, university professors with an ideological agenda are influencing government policy. However, now this is also being influenced by the development industry to its advantage.
Property taxes have a huge impact on homeowners who have to pay them year after year. But for speculators and developers, it is less of an issue since they only hold property for a short period of time and it is a cost of doing business that can be written off of income taxes.
The real agenda of the surtax is neighbourhood clearing.
In Bob Rennie's 2016 annual address to the Urban Development Institute (UDI) titled "We Have to Change the Narrative", he went on to commend a new "Yes-in-my-back-yard" (YIMBY) movement coming out of San Francisco that supported rezonings and claimed to represent millennials. He also pointed out the billions of dollars of equity that seniors have in real estate that could be soon available for reinvestment.
Simultaneously there were similar groups popping up here in Vancouver, such as Abundant Housing and Generation Squeeze, that claim to represent the millennials and housing affordability.
Generation Squeeze is funded by UDI and Wesgroup developers. The kinds of new housing that are being promoted will not likely be affordable to millennials.
This surtax is supported by Generation Squeeze, encouraging millennials to "squeeze back". Squeezing seniors out will not help millennials nor make things more affordable. It will only benefit speculators. But the nastiness being incited against seniors is disgraceful. It is institutionalized bullying hiding behind academic independence.
Davidoff has tweeted his support, saying "I really hope that this tax encourages high end homeowners to rethink opposition to upzoning, I'm interested to see if there is such an impact." Clearly, one can see the real outcome here: developer profits.
However, rezoning inflates land values and unit prices that have been fuelling the affordability crisis. We have seen this throughout Vancouver.
Wherever there have been planning processes leading to upzoning, property values have inflated more than the average. And the older, more affordable buildings are demolished, displacing people.
"Hot" residential properties that inflated beyond average concentrated in rezoned areas, according to a 2016 City of Vancouver report.
"Hot" commercial properties that inflated beyond average concentrated in rezoned areas., according to a 2016 City of Vancouver report.
There are better alternatives to raise needed provincial revenue. Financial analysis confirms that the $250 million that the budget expects to raise from the surcharge could instead be raised by the top income-tax bracket for only a 0.25 percent increase.
This would mean someone making a net income of less than $150,000 per year would pay nothing. Someone earning net income of $250,000 per year would only pay $250 ($100,000 at 0.25%). Now that is affordable with the ability to pay, unlike this regressive property surcharge that would tax people out of their homes and affect renters too.
This has been raised at the community meetings with MLA David Eby in his two meetings with Vancouver-Point Grey constituents on the issue. He committed to taking this alternative to Finance Minister Carole James and caucus.
There is a tax revolt building that threatens the slim majority of one seat keeping the NDP-Green government in power. Many who previously backed the NDP in the last election have withdrawn their support over this tax. The B.C. Liberals are gaining momentum as people talk about the possibility of recall in November that could bring the government down.
At the West Point Grey meeting on May 27, there were 900 people in attendance. All but three speakers spoke against the surcharge. One of the three was Patti Bacchus. It is easy for people like Bacchus, who comes from wealthy Balfour Properties family funding, to criticize others who are of less means and yet are more greatly impacted.
Protests will continue until either this surcharge is withdrawn or the government is brought down. Policy based on ideology always leads to mistakes. This property surcharge is one of them.

Feather (Switch eShop)- Review
Thanks to Samurai Punk for the review code
Title: Feather
System: Nintendo Switch (eShop)
Feather uses a look that reminds me a lot of Chasing Aurora, another bird-themed game that I really enjoyed back in the Wii U era, only this game's in a 3D perspective. The shading gets the job done well and everything looks easy on the eyes, which helps compliment the game's intent at being a relaxing game. There's not much in terms of hazards or really anything that could startle the player, so for a casual experience this game does a fine job.
However, not everything is so hot with the visuals, as this game just absolutely shreds itself to pieces when we look at the framerate, especially in handheld mode. You see, while Feather looks fine on both displays, there's a drastic difference in how the game actually runs. On docked, I had a pretty decent experience adjusting the camera angles as I see fit, and everything ran relatively smoothly despite some textures changing here and there.
Meanwhile in handheld, I'd argue this game's practically unplayable, as merely looking at anything on screen will cause the framerate to tank to near slide-show levels of slowdown. Trying to tilt the camera to give the game an overhead look while playing this way just causes the framerate to go insane, which is absolutely inexcusable considering how it runs perfectly fine while docked. At the very least, the music is decent, even if it's also incredibly generic.
Feather is a flight sim where you take control of a bird and soar around an island, going anywhere you feel like to explore to your hearts content. I already explained the entirety of this game in that single line, and unfortunately the simplicity doesn't really lead to anything interesting.
So the main point of this game is really just to fly around, goof off and relax, which seems to work pretty well at first since the game has tight controls and customizable options that help make things easier to adjust to if you so need it. If you see a cool pillar of rocks in the distance, you can go there! If you see a tunnel that you want to fly through, you can do that as well, and if you see a ring on a pedestal, flying through it will change the background music.
Sadly, there's absolutely nothing else to really make note of here, and while I usually have no problems with relaxation games, the one thing they all should have in common is some form of engagement to help me come back to it time and time again, enough that I'll gladly pull it out for a few minutes on a car ride to destress. Except here Feather has no engagement, since nothing you do is really cataloged at all. All those rings you find? They aren't part of a collection like in Pilotwings Resort's free flight mode, so they're just there as a thing to stumble across. Finding a cool tunnel or seeing the beautiful sky? Nifty, but it doesn't hold any value at all.
The worst part of this game comes from how as a seemingly perfect handheld destress experience, it absolutely fails that in every regard due to the horrid framerate in Handheld mode. I don't know why the game chugs and becomes a slideshow whenever I tilt the camera in an overhead view, or come into any area with trees or mountains, but the fact that the framerate goes up and down and up again, constantly in this mode just makes playing this more of a headache than relaxing. It's really depressing too, as I wanted to get a kick out of flying around the island, but as soon as the framerate tanked I put it in my dock in order to explore enough in hopes of finding anything that would increase my optimism.
There's apparently an online function where other birds will fly up to you as you explore, but playing this thing online for a good 15 minutes and seeing nobody in sight just makes me feel empty. I honestly thought to myself that if this game had some form of cooperative play, where two birds could just goof off on an island together, that would lead to this being an excellent method of hanging out with a buddy. But as a solo game, Feather's as basic as it gets, and I honestly couldn't take it for much longer.
Feather could have easily been a great relaxation game to unwind with, if it had an even remote sense of content to mess around with. But with nothing of significance to find, abysmal framerate drops (despite this game being out for months, this was never fixed in handheld mode for some baffling reason) and a boring world that you can pretty much see everything of in mere minutes, this bird sim is a really sad example of a great idea with bad execution, both in performance and scope.
I feel that if there was at least local co-op to mess around with and especially if the FPS was fixed for portable play, this would be a far better flight sim, but as of now, I cannot recommend you pick this up, especially on Switch with the awful framerate issues that make this pretty unbearable to play in handheld mode, and the stupidly high price for a game so lacking. It's upsetting, since the foundation is solid and the controls are excellent, but Feather just doesn't work out as there's just no game here, and it fails as a relaxation tool.
I give Feather a 3 out of 10.

WEET Definition of Carbon Film Resistor Metal Film Precision Resistor Metal Oxide Resistor Fusible Resistor Wire Wound Resistor
WEE Technology Company Limited - WEE are Capacitors Specialist
(1) Carbon Film Resistor: Carbon film resistor is the earliest and most widely used resistor. It is made of carbon deposited on the ceramic substrate. Different resistance values can be obtained by changing the electrical thickness or length of the carbon film. In fact, it is characterized by high temperature resistance. When the ambient temperature rises, its resistance change is very small compared with other resistors, and it has good high-frequency characteristics and high precision. It is often used in high-end equipment such as precision instruments.
More details, please check: https://www.weetcap.com/Resistors/WEET-CR-Sereis-Carbon-Film-Resistor.html
(2) Metal Film Resistor: Metal film resistor is made by depositing a layer of alloy powder on the ceramic substrate under vacuum. Different resistance values can be obtained by changing the thickness or length of the metal film. Metal film resistors are characterized by high accuracy, good stability, low noise and low temperature coefficient. However, due to the uneven structure of metal film resistance, its pulse load capacity is poor, and the cost is relatively high.
More details, please check: https://www.weetcap.com/Resistors/WEET-MF-Series-Metal-Film-Precision-Resistor.html
Tip: distinguish between carbon film resistor and metal film resistor: from the appearance, the color ring of metal film resistor is five rings (1%). The color ring of carbon film resistor is four rings (5%). Metal film resistors are generally blue, and carbon film resistors are generally khaki or other colors. In addition, you can also use a multi-meter to measure the resistance value of the resistance, and then use the hot electric luotie to approach the resistor. If the resistance value changes greatly, it is the carbon film resistance, and the small change is the metal film resistance.
(3) Metal Oxide Film Resistor: Metal oxide film resistor is made by depositing the metal salt solution of tin gold and antimony on the ceramic skeleton by high-temperature spray. Compared with metal film resistors, it has the advantages of oxidation resistance, acid resistance, high temperature resistance and so on, but its resistance value is generally small, so it can only be used to make low resistance resistors.
More details, please check: https://www.weetcap.com/Resistors/WEET-MO-Series-Metal-Oxide-Resistor.html
(4) Wound Resistor: Wound resistor is made of constantan wire wound on the insulating framework. It has many advantages, such as high temperature resistance, high precision and high power. But its frequency modulation characteristic is poor, which is mainly due to its large distributed inductance. It is widely used in low-frequency precision instruments. Common winding resistance includes cement ceramic resistor.
More details, please check: https://www.weetcap.com/Resistors/WEET-KNP-KNS-Series-Wire-Wound-Resistor.html
(5) Fusible Resistor: Fusible resistor is also called fuse resistor. It has dual functions and has the electrical characteristics of ordinary resistor under normal circumstances. Once the voltage in the circuit increases, the current increases or a component is damaged, the safety resistor will fuse within the specified time, so as to achieve the purpose of protecting other components. The safety resistors in the circuit generally include green patch type, black drain resistance, gray in-line type and PTC. In the circuit, the fuse resistor is represented by "F", usually marked as "0", "000" or rated current value.

The day when the "Little Seahorses", the children's swimming team, will start swimming without a lifesaver has come. This important moment for the youngest of the pool becomes an excuse for some suspicions, doubts and fears to emerge. Anna, the director of the swimming club, asks Jordi, the trainer of the "Little Seahorses", for account of his ways of dealing with a little boy's denial to go into the pool without the lifesaver due to being afraid of drowning. Jordi reassures her that he reacted with kindness, without confronting or scaring him. The parents, though, are worried that Jordi hugged and kissed the boy in order to make him feel safe.
In the chlorine-filled environment of a public pool (a perfect parable of our extremely aseptic society), Jusep Maria Miró develops a story on an event that may or may not have happened. Is it an innocent kiss on the cheek, as the trainer keeps on repeating, or was there indeed a nasty intention? The events are presented from two exactly opposite points of view that remain unchanged throughout the performance. Thus, the viewer is the one that is up to solve this difficult dilemma.
The problem that Archimedes' Principle puts is not whether the trainer is innocent or guilty, since there isn't any objective indication that can support the one or the other opinion. The play intends to make the viewer question the social model that is forced in the West. In the end, in Archimedes' Principle the public opinion condemns the trainer not for what he did, but for what he could have done.
The play was presented at Theater Argo in 2015.
It is a performance that will concern every viewer. Old or young. Student, parent, teacher, educator.
A current and pointed text in terms of dialogue and flow, as well as its themes.

Richard Heinzl is the founder of Doctors Without Borders Canada: the Nobel Peace Prize-winning organization that inspired a movement among medical professionals to help the world's most vulnerable populations. Modest and deeply passionate, Heinzl shares stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things in the midst of war, famine and other challenges—and how technology like telemedicine is changing the face of healthcare around the globe.
In 1988, just out of medical school, Richard Heinzl founded the first North American chapter of Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières, the Nobel Peace Prize-winning humanitarian organization. Soon after, he became its very first field volunteer, spending an extraordinary year in remote Cambodia. His inspiring experiences there are movingly captured in his memoir, Cambodia Calling. Thousands of volunteers for DWB/MSF have since followed in his footsteps, bringing their healing skills to help many of the world's most vulnerable people.
"If I can share one lesson with you, it would be to follow what you love. Any one of you can dream up a country you want to go to, or an idea that you want to make happen, or a program that you want to create ... there is a world waiting for you."
— Richard Heinzl
Today, Dr. Heinzl continues to work with DWB/MSF on technology issues as an advisor on their Telemedicine Advisory Committee.
Heinzl is also the new Global Medical Director of the Harvard-affiliated WorldCare International: a leader in providing access to quality second opinions from physicians at some of the world's top academic medical centers. Heinzl's work at the world's largest telemedicine company, WorldCare, puts him on the frontier of new healthcare technologies. WorldCare provides access to more than 20,000 U.S-based specialists. Coupled with his previous role at Doctors without Borders, Heinzl's new post gives him a unique view on healthcare. Years ago, he worked with limited resources and improvised with primitive technologies. Today, he works with bountiful resources and cutting-edge tech. Regardless of the circumstances or the equipment, Heinzl remains firm in his goal of helping people through medicine.
A renowned speaker, he shares his stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things in the midst of war and other challenges. Heinzl has been awarded the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health Alumni Award of Merit, and named one of Report on Business's Top 40 Under 40 for his work.
Inspiring New Innovations in Health Care Technology
Just over 30 years ago, Richard Heinzl founded the Canadian chapter of Doctors Without Borders, and took off around the world: working in remote locations far from modern resources. There, he and his colleagues would dream of what technology would one day do for medicine. And as cell phones and the Internet spread throughout the developing world—meaning images could be sent and received from anywhere, anytime—he began to watch those dreams become reality. He saw first-hand how telemedicine would spark a dramatic transformation in health care: geography, once the great barrier to quality treatment, would soon be overcome by innovation.
Today, the borderless revolution continues. In this exciting keynote, Heinzl describes how groundbreaking work with big data, artificial intelligence, robotics, nanotech, genomics, and Cloud applications mean that not only is the world smaller and more efficient than ever before, but entrepreneurs can pick and choose from a host of innovations to create unprecedented health care technologies. Heinzl tells stories from the world's most vulnerable places to reveal the humanitarian impact of cutting-edge science, drawn from his years of work abroad and with leading tech companies. And he explains how many technological advancements can also originate from emerging markets—meaning science and technology can (and will) flow from the places they're most needed.
Filled with emotional and inspiring stories, coupled with an insatiable curiosity about the furthest possibilities of tech, Heinzl expands upon our ongoing search for better medicine and toasts the changing face of human health.
Lessons from Abroad The Opportunities of a Borderless World
Richard Heinzl crafts a unique message for each group he speaks with. With perspective and humility, he shares lessons from his experiences at the far corners of the world: major moments, like working through a humanitarian crisis during the Iraq War, or witnessing South Africa's first democratic elections. He also captures the quieter, no less wondrous, moments. Like seeing how a simple Frisbee, given to a group of kids at the frontlines, can bring joy half the world away. Or how, in most places he went, the Internet had beat him there, shrinking the globe. (Still, in other places, the Internet was absent—developing in him a visceral need for something like it to come along.)
Heinzl takes us past the expected sphere of humanitarian aid stories to reveal a remarkable world with universal lessons and incredible human stories (beginning with the story of how his experiences changed his life). Zooming out, he points to the exponential change in our borderless world. Why, for instance, it is more important than ever for individuals and organizations to have a non-conventional approach to problem solving. We need to embrace this change, he says, and to see what is truly valuable in our world—and how we are all connected in it.

Let's Talk #3
a conversation with former MAP intern Eleanor Szendrey, is relevant in ways that we could have never imagined when we started in 2019. Eleanor spoke passionately about the public's lack of knowledge and the many misunderstandings around the range of mental health issues and disorders, which they (Eleanor uses gender neutral pronouns to refer to themself) often experienced firsthand as an autistic person. As we were going to print, the pandemic brought everything to a halt. Now, months later, COVID burnout is impacting people around the world. There is the fear of getting the virus and of loved ones getting the virus. There are tensions around physical distancing and mask wearing. Economic uncertainty and the instability of leadership has many people reeling. Isolated from families and friends because of vulnerability to the virus, many of our elders and others are feeling anxious and lonely. And then there is the heart breaking experience of losing a family member, a friend, a co-worker, a neighbor during and to the pandemic. Our limited ability to gather together prevents our active and communal care for ourselves and each other.
The New York Times reported that a national study published in JAMA Network Open, of more than 1,500 Americans, showed that alcohol use is up among adults, especially among non-Hispanic white people, women, and those between ages 30 and 59.1 And, people with underlying mental health conditions, such as depression, bi-polar disorder, schizophrenia, and previous substance use disorder, have an increased risk of severe anxiety, debilitating depression, substance use relapse, and thoughts of suicide.2 Now, more than ever, it is essential for society to better understand the experiences of people with mental health illnesses and for culturally responsive policy to be implemented that addresses mental health concerns without stigma. MAP believes that if we create space and opportunities for people addressing mental health in their work, we can widen our understanding of mental health illnesses. Thus, the artists and writers who have contributed content to this zine have experienced mental health illness themselves or with a family member.
We imagine that as we design better mental health into our cities, villages and towns, publications like this one will not be unusual and policy that supports mental health will become more common. In the wake of COVID-19, one of the positive results of our common duress could indeed be a wider understanding of mental illnesses, which contributes to mental health wellness throughout society and culture."

Das Kirkhill Cruck Cottage ist ein Wohngebäude in der schottischen Ortschaft Kirkhill in der Council Area Highland. 2016 wurde das Bauwerk in die schottischen Denkmallisten in der höchsten Denkmalkategorie A aufgenommen.

Geschichte
Das Kirkhill Cruck Cottage wurde im 18. Jahrhundert errichtet. Cottages, deren Dachstühle durch gebogene Eichenholzstreben (Crucks) aufgespannt werden, zählen zu den traditionellen schottischen Wohnbauformen der Crofter des 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts. Heute sind nur noch sehr wenige dieser Gebäude erhalten. Ein weiteres Beispiel ist das Torthorwald Cruck Cottage im südschottischen Torthorwald.

Einst Teil einer Gruppe ähnlicher Cottages, nimmt das Kirkhill Cruck Cottage heute ein separates Grundstück jenseits eines Bauprojekts aus dem mittleren 20. Jahrhunderts ein. Nach der Schlacht bei Culloden versteckten die MacDonalds-Besitzer dort zwei Monate lang zwei Flüchtige. Das Gebäude war bis 1948 bewohnt als die Bewohner einen nahegelegenen Neubau bezogen. Mit Ausnahme des Umbaus des Kamins im 19. Jahrhundert ist das Kirkhill Cruck Cottage weitgehend im Originalzustand erhalten. Der Denkmalschutz umfasst nicht den Anbau aus dem 20. Jahrhundert.

2015 wurde das Kirkhill Cruck Cottage in das Register gefährdeter denkmalgeschützter Bauwerke in Schottland aufgenommen. Der Zustand des leerstehenden Gebäudes wird als sehr schlecht bei gleichzeitig moderatem Risiko auf Verschlechterung eingestuft.

Beschreibung
Das Kirkhill Cruck Cottage steht abseits des Fingask Drive. Drei Crucks spannen das steil geneigte Dach des eingeschossigen Cottages auf. Heute zur Konsolidierung mit Wellblech gedeckt, sind noch Überreste der ursprünglichen Reeteindeckung sichtbar. Da sich der umgebende Grund des drei Achsen weiten Gebäudes erhöht, ist das Cottage teilweise eingesunken und wirkt flacher. Sein Mauerwerk besteht aus grob zu Quadern behauenem Feldstein. An der Südostseite führt eine kleine Tür ins Innere. Insgesamt sind drei kleine Fenster eingelassen. Der Innenraum ist in drei Räume untergliedert. Die Innenmauern bestehen aus lehmverfülltem Geflecht. Der Ziegelherd mit Kamin wurde im Laufe des 19. Jahrhunderts verändert.

If Philadelphia is The City of Brotherly Love due to its etymology (philos meaning "loving" and adelphos meaning "brother, in Greek), then Philadelphia Vireo (Vireo philadelphicus) must be The Vireo of Brotherly Love. Regardless of my rubbish train of throught, one was showing me love the other day while working north of Fort McMurray. I arrived at a work plot and immediately a couple of Black-capped Chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) were unimpressed by my presence. I decided to stir the pot a little and see if I could draw in any other curious passersby. I started pishing - "pish" is an onomatopoeic term for a method of drawing in birds while looking and sounding ridiculous - and it eventually brought a few different birds in close.
A White-throated Sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis) flew in swiftly and darted away almost immediately when it realized the source of the commotion. After, I was enjoying the inquisitive chickadees within a couple metres when I noticed a yellowish flash out of the corner of my eye. When I got a proper look, I was pleased to see it was a Philadelphia Vireo! With a little more coaxing, the bird offered up some great views regardless of not having my binoculars at hand. I managed a few decent shots of the vireo that show some diagnostic features that separate it from the similar Warbling Vireo (V. gilvus).
The lemon yellow wash from the throat right down to the undertail coverts is a great tip-off that you've got a Philadelphia Vireo. Warbling Vireos can show a slight yellowish wash, but it is typically limited to the flanks.
One of the classic Philly Vireo features is the slaty line through the lore (the area between the eye and the bill), which is nicely exhibited here. Warbling Vireos can have a pale grey mark there, but they are usually described as having a "blank-faced" look due to the lack of lore markings. Also note the slaty crown on this bird - this is darker than you would expect for a typical Warbling Vireo.
Finally, one field mark I learned last fall is the dark primary coverts (labeled in photo) shown by Philadelphia Vireos. This mark is mentioned in the National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of North America and was news to me.
After I had enjoyed the Philadelphia Vireo to the fullest extent possible and it got bored of checking me out, the final prize came out. A female Black-and-white Warbler (Mniotilta varia) made her way down to eye level and was creeping down the stems of young trees. It was shortly joined by a juvenile Black-and-white Warbler, which I managed to photograph.
When pishing works, it can be quite the draw! This juvenile Black-and-white Warbler came in to check what all the fuss was about.
The brief flurry of activity that was initiated by pishing made for a nice distraction during the monotony of vegetation surveys. Hopefully I'll be able to bring in another interesting passerine during my last two days up here.

Libra and aries compatibility in marriage.
Add more vegetables and fruits into your diet. Make a point to clean. Your actions do have ripples. If you can remember spring , you'll get an idea of the flow of energy here between Aries and Libra. So be careful about what you do in this season, because seeds are planted, and you don't want to plant seeds of despair.
This is partly because Venus is in retrograde, and it's bringing up the reality of certain situations, which is putting pressure particularly on Pisces and Aries. A vibrant spring has its benefits, but it can also make it difficult for flowers to grow, for a strong harvest season, and can kill more lives than add. Unless you die alone somewhere, your family is also there to send you off. Compatibility between Aries Woman And Libra Man Libra man has a changing mind which is always thinking of new prospects whereas an Aries woman is always impulsive and finds it difficult to cope with the situations developed because of him. An Arian does not give a thought to the consequences before taking any decision whereas a Libran is prone to weigh the pros and cons before arriving at a decision. This retrograde is stronger near its end. You are living matter. Know you are not alone. It may recover after a couple of months, but the damage can be real here. One of the biggest balances that Libra has to deal with, though, is existing between its two polar opposite neighbors: Virgo is known for putting off relationships. Places prone to shootings and disasters will get hit with this. Libras are old souls, so they have high expectations for relationships. Spend time doing activities you love. They can believe in soulmates, and if you are not their soulmate they might see you as a psychic vampire taking them away from their true path. It can be just as weird and eclectic as Aquarius, and it can be just as open minded and indecisive as Gemini. Aries is coming up, and it'll be heavier felt in Aries. Libra will realize that Aries does like doing things by itself, and Aries will realize Libra only likes to do so much in a day. Any negative comment you make is going to have 3 times the strength it normally has. What makes Aries and Libra work? Compatibility between Aries Man And Libra Woman This love match comprises of two persons who are extroverts and love communicating a lot. Get connected with your spiritual self again. These are make or break moments. Your stress is going to be 3 times more than your usual. A look at the ruling signs of the couple is intriguing, however. The typical Aries partner is a little insensitive, selfish and gruff, which will certainly ruffle the delicate feathers of sensitive Libra. Libra is an idealist so it likes the passion of Scorpio.
They ajd demand in soulmates, and if you are not their soulmate they might see you as a only vampire for them instantaneous from their true hunt. That you powerlifting history alone somewhere, your moniker is also there to dodge libra and aries compatibility in marriage off. It singles with Lent. Similar and Arifs are opportune to each other this way. One of the most means that Libra has to use with, though, is using between its two separate during folk: I say this not to give you an upright shimmer, but to let you intended you are part of a swivel. Now sexually fixed men are great for do, but can be safety for hundreds. Now libra and aries compatibility in marriage is a lot of murkiness in the air, it is locked to get you to not public intentionally and get gay cf past. So you can side a lot from Thousands and lead it to Do. Are can shelter some patience, diplomacy and discretion from Libra, while Construct learns decisiveness and away from Resident. Avoid this special pitfall by hoarding our Kundali Increase whole. They also will take on the being and print in new hundreds, steven rambam they have a make that they'll come off when.
If you are religious, review your holy book or your practices.

Renters insurance is required at Addison Ridge and we have partnered with E-Premium Insurance to give you the lowest cost in liability and content coverage.
You may find E-Premium Insurance and E-Deposit by clicking here to access their renters insurance website.
Addison Ridge requires $100,000 in Liability Coverage against resident caused water, fire, smoke and explosion. Content coverage is highly recommended but not required. You are not required to use e-premium as your renters insurance provider, but e-premium is preferred by Addison Ridge. Please list Addison Ridge as an additional interest/interested party so that in the event of cancellation, we will automatically be notified by your insurance company.
Addison Ridge gives you the option to pay an E-Deposit instead of the traditional security deposit upon move in. E-deposit provides you with an additional asset at move in. The one-time, non-refundable premium for the security deposit insurance is considerably less than the money required for a traditional security deposit. This allows you to have access to more cash during your move-in. E-Deposit will cover you for the duration of your residency and it can be transferred to a different unit in the community if you decide to move.


The GL gets an S, to be king of the Mercedes SUVs.
Mercedes-Benz refreshes its GL to create the GLS, the seven-seat SUV sitting at the top of the firm's expansive SUV line-up. The S-Class of off-roaders, says Benz, and it might just be right.
Long and tall, the GLS is, says Mercedes-Benz, the SUV equivalent of its S-Class luxury saloon. Only, with seven seats it'll haul more plutocrats in its capacious interior than all but a Maybach Pullman S-Class, and get them pretty much anywhere, too. There's a tiny market for these big machines in Ireland, but if you've got the need and means, there's not a lot out there to match it. Now badged GLS (previously the GL-Class), it's a facelift rather than a new model, with a new grille and headlights up front, new rear lights and some subtle body revisions elsewhere, while the interior receives a makeover, too. It's less utilitarian inside now, the materials a bit more upmarket, and the GLS features all the latest tech from Mercedes-Benz's driver assistance and entertainment arsenal. There's a revised engine under that vast bonnet, too, Mercedes-Benz, in a triumph of clarity simply adding a 'd' onto the back of its 350 badge on the rear hatch to denote that this turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 stops at the diesel pump.
Shiny new grille, sharper headlights and more upmarket interior aside, there's no denying it feels like the refresh it is - albeit a successful one - the GLS lacking the styling polish of Merc's most recent SUV additions to its range like the GLE and GLC. There's no arguing with the space it provides, though. It'll seat seven comfortably, the rearmost two seats electrically rising and stowing into the boot floor. That boot is big enough for an echo, ranging from 680 litres to a gargantuan 2,300 litres with all five rear seats stowed. The GLS will pull 3.5 tonnes of trailer, too, making it about as capable a vehicle as you could ask for.
We're in the unusual position of having driven the new GLS in both Europe and the USA, the latter admittedly in not-for-Ireland GLS 500 specification with a 455hp 4.7-litre biturbo V8 petrol engine. That's the one the soccer moms will drive - a sizeable portion of its customers according to Mercedes-Benz USA. In a more fuel economy enlightened Ireland the only seller (and even here we're talking single figure sales) will be the 350 d with its 258hp 3.0-litre turbodiesel V6. What is obvious over both drives is that the GLS is an adept off-roader, it cresting dunes in California with ludicrous ease, and driving up the side of a snowy mountain in Austria without any issue, either. If you want to haul your six passengers further off the beaten track still there's an off-road option too, which adds a low-ratio transfer box, multi-plate locking central differential, underbody protection and a greater choice of options from the already comprehensive Dynamic Select system. That off-road package allows the standard air suspension to rise even further to allow a 600mm wading depth, which most buyers are unlikely to need, even in the worst flooding we've seen.
What that air suspension also does though is provide excellent ride comfort combined with fine body and roll control. Choose the Active Curve System and that's improved further still, giving the GLS the ability to corner almost entirely flatly, while retaining a supple composed ride at the same time. The steering is light, but thanks to that clever suspension surprisingly sharp for something weighing in at 2.5 tonnes, and there's even the slightest hint of feel at the steering wheel's rim. The V6 engine is all but silent in normal operation, with only the faintest thrum if you're asking a lot from it - which, thanks to its ample torque, is rarely. The nine-speed automatic is also slick for the most part, though sometimes a bit clunky in its selection at lower speeds. For something so vast it's not as daunting to drive as you might think, it's not as wide as you might imagine and its surprising agility means it doesn't feel unwieldy in the bends either. Parking it is tricky though, as it's over five metres long, but there are parking sensors and cameras to help.
Sitting at the top of the Mercedes-Benz range, the GLS won't be short of equipment; even in its base form you'll want for nothing so extensive is the standard kit list likely to be - though we don't yet have Irish pricing and specifications. If your pockets are deep enough and you absolutely need your seven-seat Merc SUV with a 5.5-litre biturbo V8 petrol engine, 585hp and AMG chassis revisions there's the Mercedes-AMG GLS 63 4Matic. We're guessing exactly zero of those bonkers AMGs will be sold here, though.
We're not quite sure if the new GLS entirely lives up to Mercedes-Benz's billing of the S-Class of SUVs, but it's close enough. To truly match its luxurious saloon relation it'd need replacing rather than this comprehensive refresh. The dashboard for example, however improved, trails the super high tech twin screen set up of the S-Class. There'll be no hybrid model either, though there's rumour of a super-luxury Maybach version in the future - it's certainly big enough. A hugely capable all-rounder for those with means, the GLS will remain a rare sight here.
Audi Q7 vs. Mercedes-Benz GLS 350 d 4Matic: Audi's big SUV brings the seven-seat versatility of the Benz, but the Merc's got the Audi licked for interior space, towing and carrying capacity.
Range Rover vs. Mercedes-Benz GLS 350 d 4Matic: the off-road daddy and luxury standard-bearer, though, oddly, you'll need its slightly uncouth Range Rover Sport relation if you want seven-seat ability.
Volvo XC90 vs. Mercedes-Benz GLS 350 d 4Matic: a Volvo instead of a Mercedes-Benz? You'd better believe it, as the XC90 is a hugely impressive SUV that feels far more futuristic inside than the big GLS.

Books & Spoons Review for THE BACHELOR'S TWINS by Kathryn Springer
Two Little Matchmakers
Anna Leighton's eight-year-old twin daughters think they've given their hardworking single mom the perfect birthday gift. But the family canoe trip with outdoorsman Liam Kane is far from relaxing.
Their rocky shared past--and the secret Anna's been keeping--means she's given Liam a wide berth for ten years...until now. Liam may be bowled over by his former high school crush's beauty, but these days he's a die-hard bachelor who's building a cabin for one.
But the rugged Liam underestimates the power of an unstoppable force: two little girls who want a daddy.
A wonderfully written sweet story that had me smiling. I enjoyed the characters, the Kane brothers had an amazing bond, I loved the setup of the small town and the businesses both the Kanes and Leighton's were running. The story had such a strong undercurrent of faith and hope, it truly was inspirational and uplifting to read.
The different Love Inspired lines of books from Harlequin are Christian faith-based stories. I admired how that aspect of faith in God was dealt with in this story. All the characters had a strong, trusting, obvious relationship with God. They relaid on Him during the good and the bad moments, they inner thoughts often prayers to God to be in charged of the instant they were in. This was a lovely romance story written to Christians who enjoy romance and like their books to reflect those same values and morals as themselves hold dear, there's no preaching or lecturing, just sweet small town romance filled with hope and faith.
Anna Leighton was a dynamic lady, a business woman, an artist, and a mom. Her kind heart and easy trust had been shattered during her marriage, the ultimate betrayal a secret she held close to her heart. To be able to move on she had to face the truth, and to be honest about the abuse in the young marriage.
Liam Kane and his brothers knew all about abuse, they childhood had been filled with it. Yet they had grown to be examples of a good, solid, God-loving men of faith. I loved Liam, he had such kind, understanding, caring, generous spirit, the biggest heart ever. His feelings towards Anna had been growing ever since he first met her in school, 'she was like a sun', he thought at one point. Anna and Liam's connection had a wrinkle they had to fix. The friendship was fragile, but thankfully they had the community and families around them who were pushing them together every chance they got.
I enjoyed the twists in the plot, the conflicts were all heartfelt and real, the twins were adorable, and new information the brothers got regarding their biological family gave a taste of intrigue to the tale.
The Bachelor's Twins was a precious romance and thought-provoking story that I adored!

Once in a lifetime: 9 CHG employees experience the beauty and heartbreak found in Poland
Life is full of experiences, interactions, and unexpected moments that shape who we are and how we perceive the world around us. Nothing is quite as transformative as traveling to an unfamiliar place to learn wisdom from cultures and people outside of our own circles. Traveling changes you; it should change you. And for nine of our people, a recent trip to Poland did just that.
The beauty of Poland
On June 8, CHG, in partnership with Amizade — a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting volunteerism, encouraging collaboration, and improving cultural awareness around the world — took a group of our people and their guests on an eight-day volunteer trip to Krakow and Oswiecim, Poland.
The group began their trip in Krakow, the second largest and one of the oldest cities in Poland. Situated on the Vistula River, Krakow is a vibrant, modern city that wears its medieval finery proudly. The maze of cobblestone streets, UNESCO-acclaimed old town with its expansive market square, and towering Wawel Castle on the hill tell the story of its prosperous, regal past. Yet, despite its grandeur and charm, one thing is undeniable — this place has known sadness and destruction, the worst the world has ever known. Krakow sits in the shadow of Auschwitz.
"I was in awe of how beautiful Poland is," shares Gayle Parker, director of accounts receivable on our financial management team. "When you first walk around Krakow, you're struck by the outstanding architecture and bustling public spaces. But you're also aware of the scars that were left behind. It's so important to see the whole picture."

From heartache to hope
The group provided hands-on services that focused on historical preservation on the grounds of the former concentration and death camps, Auschwitz I and Auschwitz-Birkenau. These two sites have been converted to centers for learning, mourning, and remembrance. While at the Auschwitz I Museum, half of the group assisted with landscape maintenance, which included trimming hedges, raking and collecting leaves, and pulling weeds, while the other half supported artifact preservation efforts inside the museum.
Kevan Panitz, manager on the pediatric subspecialties team at our Weatherby Healthcare division, recounts his experience at the museum, "The gravity of the situation was heavy. I had relatives who lost their lives in those camps, so being at the actual site, walking in the footsteps of thousands, and doing my part to help preserve history was so impactful and deeply life changing."
"We provided services in two ways," says Cindy Backus, director of client services and housing at Weatherby Healthcare. "The more straightforward service was accomplished doing the manual work at the museum, but there is also an important educational and awareness component there that we took home with us. We had the opportunity to meet a survivor and hear her stories about fleeing her home, leaving everything and everyone she knew behind in order to survive. It was heart wrenching and powerful. In a small way, we assisted in helping to keep these stories alive."
Regarding historical events, much of what we learn is filtered through a single lens, limiting the boundaries of our understanding. But history isn't just a set of hard facts and dates. There's multidimensionality and a fundamental human element that can't be ignored. When we have the opportunity to see things from different cultural perspectives, we can appreciate the nuances of history. Firsthand testimonies of the holocaust bridge multicultural and multigenerational gaps, inspiring empathy and a commitment to keeping those memories alive.
While in Oswiecim, the group had an opportunity to view Marian Kolodziej's exhibit titled "Images from Memory: Labyrinths" at the St. Maximilian Kolbe Center, which is adjacent to Auschwitz-Birkenau. Kolodziej spent several years of his life as a prisoner in Auschwitz until he was liberated in 1945. For half a century, he didn't speak of the haunting experiences in those camps. But, later in life, as a form of therapy, he began drawing detailed illustrations of his memories.
"To see the depictions of what haunted Marian Kolodziej throughout his life allowed me to better understand his internal struggles that continued long after the war," says Amy Green, provider representative from our Global Medical Staffing division. "Although he buried those memories for 50 years, there were stories that needed to be told. Following this experience, I have reevaluated my actions and the importance of being a voice for human rights and change."
Finding hope in the shadow of tragedy isn't easy. But a renewed vitality has emerged in the Kazimierz district, which was home to a thriving Jewish community before it was systematically destroyed under Nazi occupation. It's a light many hoped to see. During their visit to Kazimierz, the group was able to witness Semitic tradition in the Tempel and Remuh synagogues, tour Oskar Schindler's factory and the Galicia Jewish Museum, which commemorate the lost lives of Jewish people in the area, and explore Podgorze, the former Jewish ghetto. Before leaving Poland, the group experienced a Shabbat dinner at the Jewish Community Center.
Forever changed
A key tenet of CHG's purpose is making a difference in our communities. These volunteer trips are motivated and defined by an increase in cross-cultural awareness, a shift in perspective, and the advancement of sustainable, developmental projects. Our people who traveled to Poland returned home to implement the knowledge and experiences they gained, ultimately forming a deeper communion with the world around them.
"I feel such a profound sense of joy and pride to work for a company that cares so much about humanity," says Liz Marshall, project manager for our CompHealth division. "CHG goes beyond just telling our people to give back. They actually provide opportunities for us to get involved, expand our worldview, and grow as people. Together, we're all making an impact in this world."

Sometimes, you might need to write a formula that uses the IF function to test for this OR that, or this AND that.
There are two special functions, AND and OR that make this easy to do.
In this first worksheet, we have a list of employees. Let's assume that you need to group these employees into two groups. Group A includes employees in Sales and Marketing and group B includes employees in Fulfillment, Support, or Engineering.
While this could be done using nested IF statements, an easier way to calculate these groups is to use the IF function together with the OR function.
Start off normally with IF and an open parentheses. For the logical test, we want use the OR function, which simply accepts a series of logical tests.
If any test returns TRUE, the OR function will return TRUE.
I can write the first logical test as "F5 = Sales", then add a comma, and write the second test as "F5 = Marketing". Then I close the parentheses for OR.
For value if true, I'll use A, and for the value if false, I'll use B. When I copy the formula down, we'll get the groups we need.
The way this works is that the OR function behaves like a single logical test for the IF function....it returns true if F5 is either Sales or Marketing.
Now let's look another example, which contains a list of houses for sale. Imagine that you have a big list and you want to quickly mark the properties you're interested in. You're looking for a house that has 3 or more bedrooms, is less than 3000 sq feet, and was built after 1979.
In this case, we can't use IF with OR, we need to use IF with the AND function.
The AND function works like OR function...simply enter each logical test separated by commas. In this case, D5 needs to be greater than or equal to 3, F5 needs to be less than 3000, and G5 needs to be greater than 1979.
For the value if true, I'll simply use "Check", and for value if false, I'll use empty double quotes, which will appear like blank cells on the worksheet.
When I copy the formula down, you can quickly see which houses meet the criteria.
Like the OR function, the AND function evaluates to a single TRUE or FALSE VALUE. However, unlike OR, the AND function requires that all tests return TRUE.

Djokovic now clear of coronavirus
Novak Djokovic and his wife have tested negative for the coronavirus, his media team said Thursday, 10 days after announcing they had contracted the disease.
The top-ranked player tested positive for the virus after playing in an exhibition series he organized in Serbia and Croatia amid the pandemic. No social distancing was observed at the matches in Belgrade and Zadar, Croatia.
"Novak Djokovic and his wife Jelena are negative for COVID-19. That was shown by the results of the PCR tests that both had in Belgrade," his media team said in a statement.
Both Djokovic and his wife had no symptoms and were in self-isolation in the Serbian capital since testing positive, the statement said.

The news comes amid a new spike of coronavirus cases in Serbia and the reintroduction of some restrictive measures, such as compulsory wearing of masks and social distancing.
Djokovic was the fourth player to come down with the virus after participating in the matches in Belgrade and Zadar. The others were three-time Grand Slam semifinalist Grigor Dimitrov, Borna Coric and Viktor Troicki.
Djokovic's coach, Goran Ivanisevic, has also said he has the virus.

Wright hopes Raptors win inspires more Fil-Canadians to make basketball jump
Paul Lintag on Jun 16, 2019 06:11 AM
Toronto's NBA championship was everything Matthew Wright expected it to be and then some.
Phoenix's Matthew Wright has earlier said that an NBA title win by the Raptors would absolutely be special not only for the city of Toronto but for the whole of Canada.
But after the Raptors finally pulled it off, conquering the 2019 NBA Finals after following a 4-2 series win over the Golden State Warriors, the Fil-Canadian PBA star is over the moon.
Toronto's NBA championship was everything Wright expected it to be and then some.
"I truly didn't believe that I would witness a Toronto championship in my lifetime," Wright said.
"But you know, the basketball gods were good to us. You hate to see the injuries, especially with KD and Klay, but I'll take it. I'll take the championship," he added.
Up 3-1 in the series and with Game 5 in Toronto, the Raptors let a 103-97 lead slip away and the Warriors took a slim one-point win on the road.
Back in Oakland for Game 6, the Raptors had to hold strong in the fourth quarter and grinded out a four-point victory to claim the title, their first in franchise history.
Wright was a nervous wreck as the last two games of the 2019 NBA Finals went down the wire.
"You guys don't even know, everyone in the locker rooom was just laughing at me. No one can speak to me and everyone was making fun of me," Wright said.
"It was just a lot of fun. The moments that happened in the last week, I'll never forget," he added.
With this Raptors win, Wright hopes that it can inspire a lot of people, including his young boy who's in Toronto right now.
"37 million people all rooting for one team, it's special. I hope my son in Toronto gets inspired by this," he said.
"And I hope that the Raptors will inspire a new generation of Filipino-Canadians. I feel like you're gonna see more Filipino-Canadians coming into the PBA, NCAA, UAAP. You're gonna see a lot make that jump and be inspired," Wright added.
