train_200 | completed | 860d653b-ac80-41ee-a361-db1a6da1fc83 | IKEA queen size all-wood platform bed - $400 (Maryville area)
QR Code Link to This Post
We're having hardwood flooring installed and at the same time decided to upgrade our queen bed.
That's why we have an Ikea all wood queen-size platform bed for sale.
The bed is in great shape, but we're going bigger.
The bed has 4 build-in drawers for storage.
Frame dimensions are: 79.5x63 inches.
To be able to use the drawers you need to have at least 20 inches per side extra.
Since it is Ikea made - it can be dissassembled for transport - originally it came in 2 flat boxes.
You can have it with mattress or without it (as is needed).
The mattress is still in very good condition and is free.
The bed alone was over $600.
Selling for $400 OBO.
p.s. you'll probably need a truck and maybe some blankets for padding to protect the wood's
nice clear finish.
The bed is not heavy (as it has no particle boards).
The drawers can be removed.
I can help you load it. | Following the publication of ‘The Wireless Access Control Report 2018’, leading security professionals from a range of industries share their opinions of the market, and the future, of wireless access control.
Why demand for wireless continues to grow?
Figures from the 2018 edition of the report show continued growth for wireless vs. wired solutions, but why are security and facility managers ‘cutting the wires’?
Russell Wagstaff, Director for Commercial Access Solutions at ASSA ABLOY EMEA, commented: “Among the many advantages of wireless discussed in the report, I would highlight two. Firstly, removing the need to cable every door makes it much easier and more economical to bring many more doors into your access system, allowing wireless technology to upgrade your building’s security in an instant.
“Secondly, the energy efficiency of wireless doors delivers significant cost savings. The standard batteries that locks use have long lives, and only fully ‘power up’ when there’s a credential to read. Wired doors are generally connected to the mains 24/7.”
The report also forecasts growth in wireless locks for ‘non-door’ applications to outgrow those for doors, but why is wireless technology especially suited to ‘non-doors’?
Wagstaff added: “It’s about convenience – the more applications that can be secured and unlocked with a single credential, the better for site users. Facility managers benefit from the wider scope of their access system, which gives them more control.
“In addition, because these ‘non-door’ devices are wireless, access control can easily extend outdoors. Padlocks for gates, machinery locks, storage lockers – with the right lock, these can all be secured within the same access control system as your front door.”
Wireless access control for small to medium-sized businesses
What specific problem did SMARTair solve at ULab?
Enrique Burgos, Director at ULab: “In addition to regular daily traffic, weekly traffic can almost multiply by ten if an event is held, so we needed an access control system as flexible and convenient as SMARTair.”
One of Spain’s newest co-working spaces, ULab’s vision incorporated the latest in security, accessibility and design to create a 21st-century business centre. Wire-free SMARTair delivered real-time access control to accommodate both regular daily traffic and busy one-off events.
Wireless access control in large or complex businesses?
How does the flexible access management offered by CLIQ impact the day-to-day security of businesses?
Christophe Nublat, Head of Study & Works Division, Eau de Valence, France, said: “All the energy is in the key – there is no power supply to the lock and therefore very little maintenance. Also, electronic and mechanical cylinders are managed by the same key.”
The municipal water authority of Valence supplies safe drinking water to 65,000 local residents, while managing four boreholes, a storage unit and 300km of water pipes. With CLIQ key-based access control, audit trails for every lock, key and padlock are available on demand, so monitoring contractor visits is easy.
Weekly mandatory key revalidation provides another layer of security, with five of their keys equipped with CLIQ Remote technology, allowing supervisors to update access rights on the move, via Bluetooth.
Integrating wireless access control
The new report picks out “integration” as a growing trend — with an overwhelming majority of survey respondents saying integrated systems are “important” or “very important” at a site. How does integration with ASSA ABLOY Aperio wireless locks benefit AXIS Entry Manager customers?
Stephanie Hensler, Business Development Director at Axis Communications, commented: “Axis completed integration of the Aperio RS485 hub with our AXIS A1001 Door Controller. AXIS Entry Manager is our web-based access control system, built into the A1001 Door Controller.
“Most users value real-time access, so we chose to integrate with an Aperio online hub, and users appreciate how intuitive it is to manage this integrated solution.”
Saving money with wireless access control
Can switching to Aperio wireless access control deliver concrete budget benefits?
Magnus Svensson, Infrastructure Manager at Lund University, said: “Aperio has proven to be very cost effective and we have been able to reduce the time we spend on user management and system administration radically.”
After 20 years, Lund University’s Faculty of Law was looking to upgrade its access control system. Aperio battery-powered escutcheons and cylinders with card readers are now fully integrated with Pacom’s Unison system.
Aperio locks work with the existing MIFARE smartcards, so there was no need for 42,000 students and 7,500 staff to return their smart-cards for reprogramming, or even to visit update readers to reactivate their permissions. Every door or card is still managed centrally from a single admin interface.

train_201 | completed | 6451cc43-d825-47b1-bcde-8c1d73c23b84 | 2023 Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture and Natural Resources
On May 15, 2023 at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN
Thanks to everyone (sponsors, presenters, and attendees) for making this year's conference a success! We hope to see you all next year in
Ames, Iowa - May 13-16, 2024
About the Conference
The Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture and Natural Resources brings together statisticians and researchers from academia, industry, and government to discuss ideas and advancements in the application of statistics to solve agricultural and biological problems. This is a four-day conference consisting of a keynote speaker, a workshop, and a series of contributed papers and poster presentations.
This conference is unique in its interdisciplinary nature and also exposes students and developing scholars to new statistical research directly relevant to agriculture. We emphasize the application of statistics in solving real-life problems with agriculture and natural resources highlighted.
The conference recognizes the joint effort of the statistician and the subject-matter researcher, and we encourage participants to submit abstracts made jointly by the statistician and the researcher. Presentation of data sets and analyses which motivated the work shares equal importance with the development of the statistical theory. Papers on either new or innovative applications of existing statistical methodologies are appropriate for presentation at this conference.
The conference has a strong tradition of supporting the attendance and contributions of graduate students and early-career researchers. The professional yet relaxing atmosphere at the conference allows students and young scientists to connect with senior researchers in various fields and promotes mentorship and collaboration.
Thank You to Our Sponsors!!

train_202 | completed | e5020dd3-822f-41b1-a25d-8401537fa77f | Chapter 2. How do the Walther LGU, Walther LGV and FWB 124 compare?
Being able to compare and contrast airguns allows us to see aspects that normally would be hidden or taken for granted. In this chapter we look at three German spring piston air rifles in 0.177 caliber with muzzle energies around 12 ft-lb Figure 2.1 shows the three air rifles. In all the tests, I mounted the same Sightron SIIISS1050X60FTIRMOA-H scope.
The Walther LGU
Walnut stock is homemade. The receiver is glass-bedded and all the stock screws are pillar-bedded with aluminum tubes. For more info on the stock, please see:
I also modified/changed some of the metal parts. The trigger is from Tony Leach:
I replaced the 15 ft-lb factory spring with a 12 ft-lb Walther LGU spring so that the rifle could be used in World Field Target competitions. I removed the muzzle cap and built a magnetic latch to hold the barrel in place. The original detent barrel latch was hard to use when wearing a shooting mitt and I was concerned that it may have been stressing the barrel. The weight of this rifle with the Sightron scope is 16.3 lbs. The scope with base and rings weighs about 3.4 lbs. For more details on these modifications, please see:
The FWB 124 was my first high quality air rifle that I bought in the early 1980’s. I installed the Maccari (Air Rifle Headquarters) Slightly Softer Mainspring kit. I made the stock out of the same walnut blank that was used for my LGU. The reason that there’s an aluminum block at the butt end of the LGU stock is that I didn’t have enough wood left for the LGU after making my FWB 124 stock! The trigger is a Maccari (Air Rifle Headquarters) stainless steel trigger. As with my LGU, the receiver is glass-bedded and all the stock screws are pillar-bedded with aluminum tubes. The weight of this rifle with the Sightron scope is 14.3 lbs. For more background on this rifle, please check out my post on the FWB 300S vs FWB 124 shootout:
The Walther LGV belongs to Hector. He custom-tuned it with an anti-bounce piston (ABP). The ABP has a cavity in an enlarged piston stem that holds a non-Newtonian fluid steel. The enlarged stem also functions as a spring guide, it just happens to be inside the piston, not at the rear, as usual. The fluid steel holds a shape (behaves like a solid) when accelerated or under pressure, but when acceleration becomes zero (as when the bounce cycle starts), then the steel becomes fluid again and tries to remain in position by its internal inertia. So the piston is stopped from bouncing and the piston, by holding the position in the compression chamber, maintains the pressure behind the pellet, so that with the same energy input, it can achieve almost 10% more muzzle energy. The weight of this rifle with the Sightron scope is 13.1 lbs.
In Fig. 2.2 I test the accuracy of these rifles at 20 yards. All the shooting was done indoors with the rifles rested on sandbags. In Chapter 3 we will discuss the statistics of group sizes, but I think the key point is that one needs to shoot multiple groups. A single 5-shot, or even a single 10-shot group, doesn’t really say much about accuracy. Maybe it’s just my scientific skepticism, but if someone shows me an amazing 5-shot one-hole group, my first question would be what did the group right before or after that one-holer look like?! With a high quality 50x scope and a solid rest, operator error has been pretty much removed and the group sizes and positions are strictly due to the rifle.
I could have simply shown the best groups for these rifles, for example the 0.17” 10-shot group for the LGU, the 0.22” 10-shot group for the FWB 124, and the 0.22” 10-shot group for the LGV, but this would not be telling the whole story and could even be misleading. If the groups were shot outdoors and I had to contend with wind, then it would make more sense to discard bad groups due to wind and focus on the best groups where wind was less of an issue. However, with these tests indoors, there are no external factors except for the rifle itself to blame for larger groups. The best groups here are simply due to luck, where fluctuations in the rifle/pellet system happened to cancel each other out better for one particular string of shots! In most sports, it makes sense to talk about personal bests, so I think we tend to use the best group that a rifle makes to judge its accuracy. However, as we will see in Ch. 3, there is a lot of randomness involved in a single 5-shot or 10-shot group. There is a reasonably good chance (1 in 36) that one could roll the same number three times in a row with a six-sided die, but does that make that die special? Any other die would have the same probability of achieving that remarkable string of rolls!
Figure 2.3 plots the ctc distance for each group. One can clearly see the fluctuations in ctc distances. In Figs. 2.3 a) and b) we can also see how the ctc distance varies with the number of shots in each group for the LGU and FWB 124, respectively. The 5-shot groups tend to be a bit smaller, but not by that much! In a purely random normal distribution (bell curve) one would expect the range of values to increase as one includes more samples. For example, if you measure the height of 20 students in a small classroom, the range of heights you get will be smaller than if you measure the height of 300 students in a large classroom (there’ll be a better chance that some really short and some really tall students can be found in the large classroom). For a normal distribution, this range of values should increase as the square root of the number of samples (in this case the number of student heights measured). Instead of looking at student height, here we are looking at where different shots land on the target. If we include more shots, there’s a better chance that one shot will land farther from the others. However, the group size (analogous to the range of heights in the student example), does not scale as the square root of the number of shots. If that were the case, the 10-shots groups should be 1.4 times bigger than the 5-shot groups (number of shots is twice as large, so we need to multiply the ctc distance by √ 2 = 1.4) and the 20-shot groups should be 1.4 times larger than the 10-shot groups and 2 times larger than the 5-shot groups. It would help if we had a few more 20-shot groups to get a better idea of the average 20-shot group size, but I think it’s clear that were not seeing bell curve scaling of the ctc distance with the number of shots in these groups.
This is a wonderful two stage trigger that comes pretty close to the light weight and crispness of the triggers on my Anschütz 2002CA and FWB 300S! This trigger changed the way I shoot at FT matches. I simply let the rifle sit where it wants and can pull the trigger without moving the rifle off target.
Hector modified his LGV trigger by adding longer adjustment set screws. The trigger pull is a bit heavier than the Leach trigger, but it is more than light and crisp enough for a clean trigger pull that doesn’t disturb one’s aim. Photos and a more detailed description can be found at:
Unfortunately, the FWB 124 doesn’t have the multilever lever arrangement with adjustable engagement points like the LGV and LGU, which use the same trigger and are very similar in design to the Weihrauch Rekord and Air Arms TX 200 triggers. However, with careful honing of the engagement surfaces and adjusting the pull weight screw so that one just barely feels the second stage engage, one can get a pretty good trigger pull in the FWB 124. I had a hard time figuring out how the FWB 124 trigger works and found the article below to be very helpful:
In my FWB 124 I replaced the factory aluminum trigger blade with a solid stainless steel trigger blade from Jim Maccari at Air Rifle Headquarters. I could feel the original aluminum trigger flex as the shot was about to be released, but that’s not a problem with the beefy stainless steel trigger. One can lower the pull weight by backing the adjustment screw out to the point that one loses the second stage, but this results in a long (albeit fairly light) pull with no hint of when the rifle will fire. By screwing in the adjustment screw until one can just barely feel the second stage engage, one can get a very predictable two-stage pull. On my FWB 124, the trigger feels like it snaps into a position as the second stage engages, and then it takes only a bit more pressure to release the shot.
Figure 2.10 shows the trigger pull weight for 10 shots with the a) LGU, b) FWB 124, and c) LGV. The light pull weights on the LGV and LGU make them easier to shoot accurately, but the FWB 124 trigger also works great. The pull weights are also quite consistent.
I recently built a system to measure Pellet Dwell Time (time from trigger pull to pellet leaving the muzzle). I placed a contact microphone on the receiver tube near the trigger, which picks up the sound of the sear tripping. The signal from the microphone is sent to one of the channels on the oscilloscope, and the other channel records the light gate signal, allowing the time between sear release and pellet exit to be measured. This setup is too new to be included in this series, but I hope to post the results someday soon.
Now one can see more clearly that the initial backward acceleration of all three rifles is smaller than the forward acceleration when the piston bounces, which is consistent with the picture of the initial gradual push that the spring imparts on the piston and the more abrupt bounce of the piston backward when it reaches the front end of the compression chamber. One dramatic difference is that the first dip in the backward acceleration of the FWB 124 (-130 m/s²) is significantly smaller in magnitude compared to the dips in the backward accelerations of the LGU (-150 m/s²) and LGV (-244 m/s²). I think that this is due to the longer and softer spring in the FWB 124 compared to the shorter and stiffer springs in the LGV and LGU. The preload in the FWB 124 is around 1.5” while the LGU and LGV have only about 1” of preload. Since the LGV and LGU get more energy out of their springs with less preload than the FWB 124, they must have stiffer springs. It would be very interesting to see what longer and softer mainsprings in the LGU and LGV would do to their recoil cycles. I agree with Jim Tyler in his July 2018 Airgun World column, that softer springs with more preload can soften piston bounce and improve accuracy. Although the reduction in backward acceleration of the FWB 124 is consistent with a softer spring, it doesn’t look like the peak positive acceleration at the piston bounce is reduced that much compared to the LGU. To test this, we really should try different springs and preloads in the same rifle, rather than comparing different rifles with different preloads. When the piston bounces back, the rifle moves forward and one gets a peak in the rifle velocity in the red traces in Fig. 2.12. According to that peak, the anti-bounce piston mechanism does not appear to be significantly decreasing the piston bounce in the LGV compared to the LGU and FWB 124.
On the other hand, since the pellet has left the rifle before the rifle starts moving forward, maybe we shouldn’t be so concerned with piston bounce, at least as far as accuracy is concerned? Of course, it would be much better to try a regular piston in the same LGV rifle and compare it to the ABP results, rather than comparing with other rifles. We’ll take another look at this in Ch. 4. Now that we have the capability to record the recoil traces with sub-ms time resolution, we can see with great detail what tuning is doing to the recoil cycle! | 2023 Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture and Natural Resources

bottom of page | JD Wetherspoon is expecting all of its 872 pubs to remain closed until at least the end of March amid fears the lockdown will continue into the spring.
The pub giant made the admission while announcing their plans to issue new stocks to secure a £92 million cash boost.
Wetherspoon said it was currently paying £4.1 million each week while the sites have been ordered to remain closed.
That's despite 99 per cent of its 37,674 employees currently being furloughed and more than 6,000 redundancies since the start of March - including at its head office and airport sites.
The chain, whose HQ is in Watford, Hertfordshire, has multiple pubs located across the county.
None of their pubs have been allowed to open in 2021 so far.

The bosses warned that they are currently working on the assumption that will be the case until the end of March, and it could take until 2022 to return to the normal trading levels in 2019.
In a separate announcement to the stock market, JD Wetherspoon said it plans to raise between £92.1 million and £93.7 million by issuing 8.4 million new shares.
The iconic pub chain said it believes it has the cash reserves to last until the end of the current financial year without securing another loan through the Government's Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme.

bottom of page | Wiley Rein’s Karen Toto Profiled by Law360 as ‘Rising Star’
Washington, DC — Karen L. Toto, partner in Wiley Rein’s Insurance Practice, was profiled by Law360 as a 2019 “Rising Star” in Insurance. Ms. Toto was recognized as one of the top five lawyers in her practice area on this elite national list of attorneys under the age of 40.
Law360 highlighted Ms. Toto’s role in helping XL Specialty ward off a $20 million claim related to allegations that its insured UBS AG lost investors billions of dollars by manipulating Puerto Rico’s municipal debt bond market; however it was a case in which the Delaware Supreme Court reversed a decision that Travelers Indemnity Co. was liable for $13.7 million in asbestos insurance claims that Ms. Toto cited as the biggest of her career.
“When you’re talking about thousands of underlying asbestos cases that span decades, there’s a lot of facts, a lot of information to marshal, a lot of weeding through, figuring out what’s significant to the case and what isn’t,” Ms. Toto said. “That’s a lot of what we deal with, and I really enjoy it.”
Ms. Toto’s perseverance throughout the Travelers case eventually led her client to victory even though she and her team lost in the trial court on nearly all issues. According to Ms. Toto, she was ultimately successful because she was always thinking of how to best position the client if the case were to be appealed. “We always had our eye on the future, so it was a satisfying win,” Ms. Toto said.
When asked what motivates her, Ms. Toto told Law360: “It’s about how to best marshal teamwork and resources at a large law firm. I love trying to figure that out.”
Ms. Toto said she anticipates certain types of insurance litigation to remain in demand, especially cases involving the opioid crisis and a variety of civil rights issues.
“Everything is impacted by coverage, so think of the next big wave of litigation, and insurers will be at the table,” Ms. Toto said. “That's what I like about this practice.”

train_206 | completed | c2c06aa0-883b-4ca8-9a60-a7882aa898e2 | Sweetening U.S. 280: The Gingerbread Lady moving to Greystone Center
Published 4:25 pm Monday, January 4, 2016
By MOLLY DAVIDSON / Staff Writer
HOOVER—Bright colors, delicious treats and eye catching items are what the Gingerbread Lady is all about, store owner Ellen Morris said. Currently located in Irondale, the shop will soon bring its cheer to U.S. 280, relocating to the Greystone Center.
“It’s a regular gift shop and then some,” Morris said of her shop, which carries an assortment of items for nearly everyone.
For the avid sports fan, Morris carries a number of college team-themed goods; for the wine enthusiast, the shop offers a selection of wine caddies from Germany; and for the cook, there are gourmet foods, edible glitter, melting chocolate, professional baking utensils and more. And of course, there are gingerbread houses.
Morris’ creations are not your average gingerbread house, they’re works of art. Morris has been making gingerbread houses for more than 50 years, and her work has graced the Christmas set of the television show, “The Young and the Restless.”
“(As a child) I wanted to be a famous artist… I never envisioned I would be famous for gingerbread houses,” Morris said. “You stumble into things in life.”
Gingerbread houses are available for purchase year round. Shoppers can buy premade houses or request a customized design. Morris’ gingerbread architecture has included castles, merry-go-rounds, trains and mansions.
Customers can expect to find quality items and good prices at the Gingerbread Lady, Morris said.
“I have always not done normal retail markup and I will continue to not do that,” Morris said. “There is a difference between a small profit and greed and I’ve always gone for the small profit.”
After a difficult year, Morris said she is looking forward to the new year and moving to U.S. 280. Her husband passed away in August 2015, and Morris said before he died, he requested she relocate back to U.S. 280. The shop had previously been located in the Colonnade near U.S. 280.
“Two weeks after he died is when I signed the lease,” Morris said. “It’s a new beginning for me, it’s something I need to do after the death of my husband.”
Although an exact opening date has not been determined, Morris said she expects the shop to open soon.

On May 15, 2023 at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN
Thanks to everyone (sponsors, presenters, and attendees) for making this year's conference a success! We hope to see you all next year in
Ames, Iowa - May 13-16, 2024
About the Conference
The Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture and Natural Resources brings together statisticians and researchers from academia, industry, and government to discuss ideas and advancements in the application of statistics to solve agricultural and biological problems. This is a four-day conference consisting of a keynote speaker, a workshop, and a series of contributed papers and poster presentations.
This conference is unique in its interdisciplinary nature and also exposes students and developing scholars to new statistical research directly relevant to agriculture. We emphasize the application of statistics in solving real-life problems with agriculture and natural resources highlighted.
The conference recognizes the joint effort of the statistician and the subject-matter researcher, and we encourage participants to submit abstracts made jointly by the statistician and the researcher. Presentation of data sets and analyses which motivated the work shares equal importance with the development of the statistical theory. Papers on either new or innovative applications of existing statistical methodologies are appropriate for presentation at this conference.
The conference has a strong tradition of supporting the attendance and contributions of graduate students and early-career researchers. The professional yet relaxing atmosphere at the conference allows students and young scientists to connect with senior researchers in various fields and promotes mentorship and collaboration.
Thank You to Our Sponsors!!

Toll Free: 1.800.550.1961 | Our temperature probes use RTD (resistive thermal device) Pt100 sensors instead of K-type thermocouples (TC) as they offer greater accuracy over the brewing temperature range. RTDs also remain more accurate over time (less drift which means less re-calibration).
I'm confused. What temperature probes do I need and how many?
If you're building your brewery following our instructions, you'll be attaching three probes to Blichmann kettles. Order one M14x1.5 Metric with 2" probe length and two 1/2" NPT with 1.5" probe length:
- Our Boil Kettle uses M14x1.5 Metric with 2" probe length in the kettle wall. A Metric (straight) thread is used as the probe is secured to the kettle wall with a nut. An NPT (tapered) thread will not work.
- Our Hot Liquor Tank & Mash Lauter Tun each use 1/2" NPT with 1.5" probe length as the probe screws into a stainless steel NPT tee fitting at the kettle output valve.
What size hole is needed for the M14x1.5 probe?
A 9/16" hole is required. We recommend using a hole punch. See our Boil Kettle instructions (STEP 2: Add a temperature probe) for more information.
How long are the cables?
The standard probe cables are 6 feet long. These may be increased to 8 foot or 12 foot length. Contact us for custom lengths.
What cable colours are available?
Brewers love their designer colours, so our temperature probe cables are available in seven different shades of expandable braided sleeving:
Each cable comes with two layers of sleeving and a stainless steel wire rope to protect the wires. The inside sleeving is always black, the outside colour is up to you.
Do the pre-assembled temperature probes require any work?
No, they are pre-assembled and ready to use. Simply plug them in. No soldering or assembly required, no special tools required.
I'm building a custom setup. How are the wires mapped/configured?
Our temperature probes have three wires: Two red (positive) and one white (negative). The two red wires are interchangeable.
The two red wires connect to XLR pins 1 and 3, and the white wire connects to XLR pin 2.
If using one of our control panels, the two red wires connect to PID controller screws 3 and 4 (order does not matter) while the white wire connects to PID controller screw 5.
Are the cables interchangeable?
Yes. Any of our temperature probe tips can be used with any of our temperature probe cables.
Can the probes be used in a thermowell?
Yes. Some kettles come with thermowells (usually 1/2" NPT or Tri-Clover). Thermowells help protect the probe from damage during cleaning or from overzealous brewers with mash paddles where the probe is buried in grist and can't be seen.
Simply screw the temperature probe tip into the thermowell and then connect the cable. To ensure the fastest heat transfer reaction time, first fill the air gap in the thermowell with a silicone based heat transfer compound.
We also carry temperature probes meant for thermowells.
Is a BSP threaded version available?
Our NPT probes may be used as is on BSP fittings of the same size. Both the 1/2" and 1/4" NPT threaded probes thread well into both BSPP and BSPT fittings of the same size. In other words, if you need to attach a temperature probe to a 1/2" BSP fitting or tee, order a 1/2" NPT probe.
Sensor: RTD (resistive thermal device) Pt100
Max sensor temperature: 248 °F (120 °C)
Accuracy: Class A (+/- 0.15°C at 0°C) per International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 60751
Alpha coefficient: 0.003850
"When it came time for me to buy my temp probes I looked at how much the parts were off Amazon & whatever other suppliers I would of needed (at a minimum three different suppliers). In the end I felt I was getting a bargain buying from you, paying shipping only once, plus I knew that everything would come in one package (which I received in less than 3 days, thank you). I hate having everything I need to build something... minus one part. errr. On top of all that I was happy to support this site by buying directly from the same folk who inspired me to buy these parts in the first place." - Grandequeso (Fred), Journeyman Electrician
"I received my order today and want to give a BIG THANKS to Mike for a fantastic job! Mike went the extra mile on the temp probes, per my spec's. Excellent packing, great communication - a fantastic job! The end product is perfect, like I did it myself, except without the scraped knuckles! Keep up the great work and looking forward to MORE products." - Sparky

The Green Teleport program is a sustainability design competition that generates recommendations for reducing GHG emissions and operating costs at teleports while supporting WTA-member operators in recruiting talent from universities and technical schools.
“WTA members report that their customers are increasingly making sustainability part of their criteria for selecting a teleport operator,” said executive director Robert Bell. “To help members respond to that demand, WTA’s Corporate Social Responsibility Committee is introducing a program that addresses the sustainability mandate while helping members develop effective university recruiting and internship programs to attract new talent to their companies. Investments in greenhouse gas reduction can also reduce costs and contribute to greater profitability in the years ahead.” | Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in man has several disease outcomes, varying from asymptomatic chronic gastric inflammation to Hp-associated dyspepsia, pepic ulcer disease, gastric adenocarcinoma, and Malt lymphoma. Particularly controversial is the role of Hp infection in the genesis of chronic dyspeptic symptoms. Only a small percentage of chronic dispeptics have long-lasting remission of the complaints after cure of the infection. It is now well established that healing of the inflammation through microbial eradication cures peptic ulcer disease. The high efficacy of bismuth or PPI triple and quadruple therapies is overshadowed by the rising resistance to metronidazole and clarithromycin. The exact role of Hp in gastric carcinogenesis in the various geographical areas needs further study. The results of ongoing trials, evaluating the long-term outcome of Hp cure, on cancer rates are anxiously awaited. The acquisition rate of new knowledge through basal and clinical Hp research has rarely been witnessed in medicine. | 209 | 65 | 90 | 2 | 2 | [

MAWA has made the friendly challenge to… create. No other strings attached. A month of unfettered creation was kicked off with Charlene Brown, and thanks to her generosity, I was able to try pottery for the first time. | What is NPS®?
Before booking a restaurant, planning a trip, buying a fancy new product or registering my dogs at the new groomers, I always consult the internet. Checking online reviews is one of the first steps for most consumers, and studies show that 84% of people trust online reviews as much as recommendations from friends and family.
Since customers are 3X more likely to talk about bad experiences than good, it's essential the negative reviews are dealt with, and the positive reviews are shared. To help, we have NPS®! These trusted reviews include the good as well as the bad, and now, with the help of social media, customers can share recommendations and reviews quickly and easily.
So what does NPS stand for?
NPS stands for Net Promoter Score. The NPS is a metric used to indicate customer satisfaction and loyalty. The higher your NPS, the more loyal your customer base.
How is the NPS calculated?
The NPS is based on one simple question 'How likely is it that you would recommend 'company' to a friend or colleague?'.
This is often asked within a customer feedback survey and is answered on a scale from 0-10.
A company's NPS is the percentage of promoters, MINUS the percentage of detractors. Those that are passive are 'ignored'.
Promoters: those who score between 9-10
Passive: those who score between 7-8
Detractors: those who score between 0-6
If 70% of respondents are promoters, 20% passives and 10% detractors (70%-10%), then your NPS would be 60.
What's a 'good' NPS?
NPSs are measured on a scale from -100 to +100. So, generally speaking, an NPS of 0-50 is considered good, 50-70 is deemed excellent, and 70+ is world-class.
The good news is that clients LOVE their vets, and the average NPS for an iRecall® practice tends to be around the mid 80's - world-class.
Some of the best 'large company' Net Promoter Scores:
John Lewis 68
What do I use my NPS score for?
The NPS is just a metric but a useful one. It allows you to track trends over time which can be compared across multiple veterinary practice sites. It can help your brand evaluate customer loyalty, and in turn, help you understand the likelihood of them repurchasing or cancelling payment plans.
Making sure you use a review platform will continuously provide insights into your business and your team. Many review platforms have been designed to give practices feedback to help identify their strengths or areas to work on.
Will online reviews impact my veterinary business?
A negative review will make 4 out of 5 people think twice about spending their well-earned money at your practice, which can be a common obstacle when trying to encourage new customers.
On the other hand, positive reviews do quite the opposite. Since 80% of happy customers will provide recommendations, and 70% of consumers are more likely to purchase if a friend talks about it on social media, getting those recommendations online can really make the difference.
Even better, it's proven that a referred customer has a 16% higher lifetime value.
Customer feedback and reviews are essential, and so it's valuable to a company to track its NPS. This metric, combined with reviews, allow a practice or business to pinpoint and showcase their outstanding work whilst managing areas of improvement.
Good reviews encourage new business and are often the first place people look when making a financial decision. Old and bad reviews discourage, so it's vital to ensure good reviews are regular and the bad are dealt with quickly and efficiently.
Google and Facebook are great places to start your online reviews. The first step, make sure you're asking your customers for their feedback!

Many people don't know how to properly care for their skin. By reading this article, you will be introduced to some helpful tips that will help you achieve healthy, beautiful skin.
Exfoliation is a great way to slough the dead skin cells off your face. You can purchase exfoliating soap from the store, or you can add a little bit of granulated sugar to your regular face wash. It's important to this one to two times weekly at most so as to prevent damaging or irritating the skin.
Rub a drop of cider vinegar into your blemishes. This treatment helps relieve dryness and restores moisture. This should be done during the day so that you do not get the odor of the apple cider on your bedding while you sleep.
Protect your skin by applying sunscreen or makeup with SPF 15 or higher. Put on sunscreen to aid in preventing peeling skin, wrinkles and sunburn. If you put on sunscreen every time you leave the house, you can avoid much of the skin damage that tends to accumulate with age.
Tanning booths are a mistake if you are trying to improve your appearance. People sometimes want to tan so they can look less than their years, but it can eventually do the opposite. A tanning booth has the same negative effect on your skin, as the sun and can cause skin cancer and premature aging. Avoid tanning beds if you want to look younger.
If you are a daily wearer of glasses or even sunglasses, you need to make certain you wash them once a week at least. There is a build up that develops on the glasses that can cause the bridge of the nose to have clogged pores and thus have acne develop. Use a wet wipe or soap and water to keep your glasses clean. You should also keep other items, such as bandannas, that come into contact with your face clean.
If your skin is oily, use a foundation that has no oils or try a mineral powder. These foundations soak up excess oils and leave skin with a smooth finish. If your skin is oily, avoid using a liquid foundation because it will add to the oiliness.
Olive oil has always been used for skin care in the past. It has been in use for many centuries, all the way back to Cleopatra. It is not only good for your skin, it tastes good as well. Extra virgin olive oil promotes radiance to the complexion, improves elasticity to the skin and strengthens brittle nails. It is also good as a hair condition, since it can greatly improve the shine.
Gentle treatment of your skin is key. Wash your body with warm water since using water that is too hot can strip your skin of its natural oils. When you get out of the tub, do not vigorously rub yourself down like you're drying off a car. Take a few extra moments to (gently) pat your skin dry. This will allow your skin to absorb more moisture.
As you can see, most people think that beautiful skin is possible. Most aren't quite sure about how proper skin care works. Now that you are armed with excellent advice, you can take proper care of your skin and achieve radiant, beautiful skin.

train_215 | completed | a6b15f93-8f44-4120-8c8b-754344dbac0c | Missouri is divided into 20 solid waste management districts. The districts were created to foster regional cooperation between cities and counties in managing solid waste. The districts help plan and implement recycling services and other alternatives to waste disposal at the local level. They also administer waste reduction, reuse, recycling and composting grants to support these efforts. Funding for the districts is provided from the tonnage fees paid at Missouri landfills and transfer stations that transfer waste out of state. These funds are received by the department's Waste Management Program. The department allocates the funds to the districts based on a statutory formula. The districts submit grants to the department for approval and the funds are then paid to the districts based on the grant amounts. The districts then award grants to various entities including local governments, small and large businesses, schools, sheltered workshops, not-for-profit organizations and individuals to support activities to recycle, compost, reuse, reduce waste and educate the public on these topics.
Choose a county from the dropdown list below and click "Submit" to access information about the solid waste management district that serves that county. | Following the publication of ‘The Wireless Access Control Report 2018’, leading security professionals from a range of industries share their opinions of the market, and the future, of wireless access control.
Why demand for wireless continues to grow?
Figures from the 2018 edition of the report show continued growth for wireless vs. wired solutions, but why are security and facility managers ‘cutting the wires’?
Russell Wagstaff, Director for Commercial Access Solutions at ASSA ABLOY EMEA, commented: “Among the many advantages of wireless discussed in the report, I would highlight two. Firstly, removing the need to cable every door makes it much easier and more economical to bring many more doors into your access system, allowing wireless technology to upgrade your building’s security in an instant.
“Secondly, the energy efficiency of wireless doors delivers significant cost savings. The standard batteries that locks use have long lives, and only fully ‘power up’ when there’s a credential to read. Wired doors are generally connected to the mains 24/7.”
The report also forecasts growth in wireless locks for ‘non-door’ applications to outgrow those for doors, but why is wireless technology especially suited to ‘non-doors’?
Wagstaff added: “It’s about convenience – the more applications that can be secured and unlocked with a single credential, the better for site users. Facility managers benefit from the wider scope of their access system, which gives them more control.
“In addition, because these ‘non-door’ devices are wireless, access control can easily extend outdoors. Padlocks for gates, machinery locks, storage lockers – with the right lock, these can all be secured within the same access control system as your front door.”
Wireless access control for small to medium-sized businesses
What specific problem did SMARTair solve at ULab?
Enrique Burgos, Director at ULab: “In addition to regular daily traffic, weekly traffic can almost multiply by ten if an event is held, so we needed an access control system as flexible and convenient as SMARTair.”
One of Spain’s newest co-working spaces, ULab’s vision incorporated the latest in security, accessibility and design to create a 21st-century business centre. Wire-free SMARTair delivered real-time access control to accommodate both regular daily traffic and busy one-off events.
Wireless access control in large or complex businesses?
How does the flexible access management offered by CLIQ impact the day-to-day security of businesses?
Christophe Nublat, Head of Study & Works Division, Eau de Valence, France, said: “All the energy is in the key – there is no power supply to the lock and therefore very little maintenance. Also, electronic and mechanical cylinders are managed by the same key.”
The municipal water authority of Valence supplies safe drinking water to 65,000 local residents, while managing four boreholes, a storage unit and 300km of water pipes. With CLIQ key-based access control, audit trails for every lock, key and padlock are available on demand, so monitoring contractor visits is easy.
Weekly mandatory key revalidation provides another layer of security, with five of their keys equipped with CLIQ Remote technology, allowing supervisors to update access rights on the move, via Bluetooth.
Integrating wireless access control
The new report picks out “integration” as a growing trend — with an overwhelming majority of survey respondents saying integrated systems are “important” or “very important” at a site. How does integration with ASSA ABLOY Aperio wireless locks benefit AXIS Entry Manager customers?
Stephanie Hensler, Business Development Director at Axis Communications, commented: “Axis completed integration of the Aperio RS485 hub with our AXIS A1001 Door Controller. AXIS Entry Manager is our web-based access control system, built into the A1001 Door Controller.
“Most users value real-time access, so we chose to integrate with an Aperio online hub, and users appreciate how intuitive it is to manage this integrated solution.”
Saving money with wireless access control
Can switching to Aperio wireless access control deliver concrete budget benefits?
Magnus Svensson, Infrastructure Manager at Lund University, said: “Aperio has proven to be very cost effective and we have been able to reduce the time we spend on user management and system administration radically.”
After 20 years, Lund University’s Faculty of Law was looking to upgrade its access control system. Aperio battery-powered escutcheons and cylinders with card readers are now fully integrated with Pacom’s Unison system.
Aperio locks work with the existing MIFARE smartcards, so there was no need for 42,000 students and 7,500 staff to return their smart-cards for reprogramming, or even to visit update readers to reactivate their permissions. Every door or card is still managed centrally from a single admin interface.

train_216 | completed | 020ebef9-9329-4b46-a2f0-f5e5822a52ae | Initiating a run
Running your algorithm on one of the available backends is initiated by clicking on the
RUN button at the top right of the screen. A popup window will appear that shows you:
- The backend that has been selected for this experiment
- The number of qubits used in this experiment
- The name of the current experiment (can be changed by the user)
- The number of shots of this experiment (can be changed by the user)
- Information whether simulation optimization will be used or not (only for emulator backends)
Executing algorithms on a hardware backend
When you run a quantum algorithm on a hardware backend the list of quantum operations is limited by the set of operations that is supported by the backend and the topology of the chip. The list of allowed operations for the current backends can be found here.
For hardware backends, the number of qubits in your algorithm must always be set equal to the number of qubits on the chip, although you do not need to perform operations on all qubits.
When you do not provide any
prep statements for your algorithm, all qubits will be initialized in the ground state or |0> state in the z-basis.
When you do not put any
measure statements at the end of your algorithm, by default all qubits will be measured in the z-direction. When you do close your algorithm with a measurement on one or more qubits, only those qubits will be measured and the result for non-measured qubits will be set to the default value of zero.
In most cases you will have to execute multiple shots in order to get some statistics on your measurement and to reduce the effects of decoherence, leakage, and control imperfections. On a hardware backend, when you execute N shots of your algorithm, all shots will be executed in succession. For each shot, the final measurements will be stored in the binary register and written to the raw data file, see displaying and downloading your results. The histogram will show the probability distribution of each state of the binary register.
Executing algorithms on a emulator backend
Quantum Inspire provides different emulator backends, depending on your needs and on your account privileges. Make sure you select the backend which best fits the requirements of your algorithm in order to optimize overall execution time.
When you execute your algorithm on an emulator backend it is usually unnecessary to execute multiple shots of the same algorithm. In this case Quantum Inspire will use simulation optimization to produce the results more quickly. This can only be done when there are no measurement instructions in your algorithm and no error model is used. Please refer to the section on simulation optimization to understand the difference between deterministic and non-deterministic algorithms, when optimization will be applied, how you can influence this decision, and what the number of shots implies for these situations.
To understand how simulation optimization works with the SDK, experienced users should refer to the Advanced user guide.
Selecting the number of shots
When no simulation optimization can be used the algorithm will be executed N times. When simulation optimization is used, no randomization will be applied when N=1. In all other cases randomization with N virtual shots will be applied.
When a simulation is put in the queue of a backend, a copy of the current code of the algorithm is stored with the result of the execution. This way you can compare different versions of your project quickly (e.g. with error model and without error model). More on this in managing your projects. | “So pray for us.”In 2016 with San Francisco, Kaepernick threw for 2,241 yards, 16 touchdowns and four interceptions over 12 games.

The joint research project, funded by UOW’s Community Engagement Grants Scheme, aims to understand gaps in the knowledge and skills of diversity service workers when servicing culturally diverse LGBTIQ+ communities in the context of COVID-19.
‘This is a wonderful opportunity to pilot a collaborative approach to understanding the level of LGBTIQA+ acceptance, knowledge and skills of ADS’s service workers,’ said Anthony Scerri, ADS’s Manager for Settlement and Community Services.
‘Once we identify gaps, we can effectively target staff training. Our ultimate aim is to ensure people from CALD LGBTIQ+ communities receive the services they need and feel welcome and included.’
Dr Quah Ee Ling Sharon, Senior Lecturer in Sociology, School of Humanities and Social Inquiry, is leading the research project. Dr Qua is a Singaporean-Chinese queer migrant woman academic whose work draws from decolonial, transnational and intersectional feminist perspectives and centres round community-based research, inequalities and social justice.
She said she was happy to be collaborating with ADS on the project to bring better outcomes for CALD LGBTIQA+ people.
Three innovative projects were chosen for UOW’s 2020 Community Engagement Grants Scheme launched at a virtual celebration on October 22.
Monique Harper-Richardson, Director of Advancement, UOW, and President of the UOW’s USA Foundation, said the quality of this year’s applications for grants was ‘at the highest level’ and all projects funded focused on resilience and recovery for communities affected by COVID-19.
‘These are extraordinary projects and I’m incredibly excited. I also extend my sincere congratulations to the three recipients.’
Special guest at the celebration Dr Belinda Kathlyn Gibbons, Senior Lecturer Faculty of Business, Sydney Business School, UOW, said the grants would help to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals ‘to care for all things and to leave no one behind’.
Mr Scerri said the pandemic had been hard on many in the community and especially marginalised people from diverse backgrounds.
‘This research will help to ensure LGBTIQA+ people from CALD backgrounds receive the best and most appropriate service possible.’

At first, the concept of “gluten-free” was only something people suffering celiac disease were interested in, but they make a small part of the population. Then followed the 7% of people with gluten sensitivity. As more products were flooding the market and gluten-free diet was gaining more media popularity, other people decided to go with the flow as well.
In reality, in 2017, we could see the data that the number of Americans excluding gluten from their diet has tripled since 2009, even if the number of celiac disease patients and gluten intolerant individuals remained the same.
Regardless of whether you want to “break up” with gluten forever because you have to or because you want to, here are some things you need to know before going gluten-free.
Gluten isn’t the “boogeyman” of the nutrition
The most important thing to know before you continue reading is that gluten isn’t, by itself, a bad ingredient. On the contrary, the fiber in whole grain has many health benefits. These include promoting gut health, controlling blood sugar, and reducing the risk of heart disease.
You should talk to a doctor
If you want to give up on gluten because you think you may have celiac disease, first you should consult a doctor to run some blood tests in order to determine your condition. The blood checks will only show accurate results if you are eating gluten on a regular basis.
As for gluten sensitivity, you should know that it doesn’t manifest only as a stomach condition. It can also affect the brain, immune system, and other aspects of your health. So, even if you don’t suspect you could be sensitive to gluten, you can run some test to know for certain.
It is not a weight loss diet
Some people decide to ditch gluten from their nutrition so they can lose weight more easily. However, the chances are that it won’t make a big difference. On the contrary, if you embrace a gluten-free lifestyle based mostly on commercial gluten-free foods, you could even gain weight. This happens because so many commercial gluten-free products are lower in fiber and higher in carbs than their gluten-packed counterparts.
The wheat is not the only thing you should be avoiding
You will also need to cut out barley and rye completely (meaning that you won’t be able to drink most beers).
When considering going gluten-free, most people think that they will only have to give up on wheat, and nothing more. Unfortunately, that is not the case. In general, you should be careful when reading the label of most of the products, including oats, spice mixes, and other packaged foods, because gluten tends to pop up in the most unexpected goods. However, even the labels won’t always tell you the truth, so try to research the brands with online databases.
Going gluten-free doesn’t have to be a sacrifice
We understand you: what could possibly be as delicious as eating a loaf of bread and finishing up with a pint of beer? Well, boy do we have news for you, gluten-free bread can be soft and delicious, tasteful cakes and cookies can also be gluten-free. There also plenty of brands producing refreshing gluten-free beer.
Also, there are plenty of healthy and enjoyable foods that are naturally gluten-free, such as eggs, fish, seafood, turkey, chicken, vegetables, fruits, potatoes, corn, nuts, rice, seeds, and many others.
The challenges of cooking without gluten
There is no doubt that gluten-free recipes can be delicious. However, it must be said that cooking without gluten requires additional considerations. This can make your hours in the kitchen much more complicated than they were before. Not only that you will need to scout for the ingredients carefully, but you will also need to look for various recipes, which can’t necessarily be found on paleo websites and books since paleo doesn’t focus exclusively on avoiding gluten.
The beginnings are always hard
The process of going gluten-free can be emotionally exhausting and sometimes even physically hard. It can leave you frustrated and ready to throw in the towel every day. However, please be aware that with time it will get easier. The most important is that you are aware of your reason and that the people surrounding you are supportive.
By now, you probably already have a clear picture of what a gluten-free diet looks like, and what are its flaws and benefits. Unless you have celiac disease and you need to do this for your health, this is a deeply personal decision you should make only when you get all the necessary information. | 217 | 25 | 53 | 2 | 3 | [

Look for short signal up to 0,795. Mind the 0,76 support level. Should it break, aim for 0,70.
The weekly AUDUSD chart show us a range -roughly- between 0,795 and 0,76. The weekly candle is a gravestone doji/shooting star falling from the ,79 resistance and that means we are probably going to retest the support around 0,76.
AU WEEKLY CHART.
The monthly chart shows the pair being trading at SMA200 level around 0,76, which probably explains the support we see at that level. As the 0,795 resistance level looks rather strong, we expect the SMA200 to be eventually broken down, opening the way to the next fib support, that is the ,786 retracement level around 0,70.

The loonie has been ranging for eight weeks, but last weekly candle, rising from the support with a long down wick tells us the pair is probably heading for the range resistance at 1,2825.
USDCAD WEEKLY CHART.
The daily chart shows a bullish engulfing candle (download ENGULFING-BAR indicator here>) rising from the SMA55, now a support at 1,2475 ; SMA40 has also been broken up in the process. As the candle is a bullish engulfing, we expect the move up to continue and will buy pull back as long as we are above that Daily SMA55. 1,25 and 1,2525 levels (see chart) are supports from which the pair may also bounce up. We will first target the range resistance at 1,2825, but should that level be reached, we will let some part of the trade opened in case it would be finally broken up.

On the weekly EJ seems to be rejecting for the second time a former broken support around 131 . We also broke down the 130 level. The last weekly candle is however a doji, and that means an indecision : the pair may still bounce up. This may be due to the monthly SMA200 that stands as a support around 128. Note that the pair made a lower high and a lower low.
EJ WEEKLY CHART.
The daily chart shows us a clean break down of the 131 level on Thursday, followed by a doji on Friday. All SMAs are now starting to point down. This is why we think the 131 level will hold as a resistance, and we will look to sell rallies under it, towards the monthly SMA200 around128. Should the 131 level not hold and be broken up, we will wait for a retest to enter long towards 134.

Indian Ocean Islands | 5 Takeaways from The Sculpt Society IRL Tour
Megan Roup, celebrity trainer and creator of The Sculpt Society launched an in-person four-city tour across the US this fall and we were thrilled to be a part of The Sculpt Society IRL Tour’s SOLD OUT stop in New York City!
The immersive experience included her unparalleled fitness method, special guests, meet + greets, "fireside chats,” retail opportunities, on-site beauty, health and wellness activations, as well as an incredible swag bag for participants to take home, including Jollie’s Nuts and Bolts and Palm print Plush Mats. Our mats were used throughout the killer workout and seeing our product in action was truly an incredible experience. Thank you, Megan -- it was such an honor to have our product alongside your passionate team and witness your workout in person!
Here are our 5 takeaways after experiencing and participating in TSS IRL:
NYC is still NYC!
It’s been a while since we’ve been to New York City and it was so much fun to enjoy the vibrance and beautiful weather. Although some things have changed post-COVID (the crowds are not as large and a lot of stores are closed), you can feel the spirit is still there and people are coming back.
It was so fun to see Hudson yards and the Vessel in person. The Vessel is an interactive artwork imagined by Thomas Heatherwick and Heatherwick Studio comprised of 154 intricately interconnecting flights of stairs -- almost 2,500 individual steps and 80 landings. This sculpture provided the most breathtaking backdrop for the live event. It is such a fun new development with lots of shops and fun restaurants and a straight view of the Hudson River.
The Sculpt Society’s at-home sculpting workout programs are amazing to take and watch! No wonder why they are the #1 Sculpt & Dance Cardio Workout! They are great for anyone with busy schedules, and we love that her classes can be as short as 15 minutes to fit a bit of mindful movement into a busy day!
The energy was so positive and exciting! We were really inspired by the community of people from the TSS team, other vendors and participants, and walked away feeling so full of energy!
We were humbled by the number of people that told us how much they loved their Plush Mats! Of course *we* know they are great, but to see people use it and then immediately fall in love is exciting! THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to say hello & give us such warm feedback.
Thank you again to Megan (and her entire team) and all of the inspiring attendees who made this day so incredible. | 219 | 46 | 92 | 1 | 1 | [

Chassy comments on biotech controversies in Chicago
via GMO Pundit a.k.a. David Tribe
The BIO Industry Conference, held this year in Chicago, is an annual event that draws thousands of attendees from all over the world to hear the latest and greatest news from all fields of biotechnology.
This year as usual, interest in agricultural biotechnology and its challenges was high. Both the considerable benefits, and the long running controversies about crop GMOs, were discussed from all angles in several well attended sessions.
After one of these sessions, Professor Bruce Chassy (co-founder with Dr David Tribe of the website Academics Review) was interviewed by Agricultural Biotech consultant Dr L. Val Giddings. Here is the transcript of that interview:
VAL GIDDINGS INTERVIEWS BRUCE CHASSY (University of Illinois) -- "WHY THE CONTINUING CONTROVERSY OVER AG BIOTECH?" BIO 2010 -- CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, USA
Wednesday, May 5th. 2010
Giddings: Why is there still controversy about ag biotech after all these years?
Chassy: The science and results are clear: products of biotechnology are probably safer than any others. There is no scientific controversy or doubt about the real-world outcomes. They are all positive, good for consumers, farmers, the environment.
Giddings: Then why do we keep hearing about all the risks of GM crops?
Chassy: There is a well financed and organized global opposition to GM crops that spreads misinformation and fear. Make no mistake about it, this isn't a grass roots opposition, it is a small handful of people who are paid to block GM crops to benefit certain countries and companies that profit from higher prices for organic and GM-free foods.
Giddings: How can we set the record straight?
Chassy: There is nobody credible talking in favor of GM crops. The industry can't do it, they have a clear conflict of interest. It's not the regulators job--they regulate and stay neutral; USDA and FDA are afraid of being sued by these groups already. The food industry isn't going to fight for GM crops, especially when they make more money from organic foods. Then there are the scientists: they know the truth, but it's not their job to argue with the NGOs. They have labs to run, students to teach, grants and papers to write. So at the end of the day, there is nobody to advocate for an accurate and impartial representation of the facts about GM crops.
Giddings: What can be done about it?
Chassy: Scientists need to speak out and realize that if someone else distorts the facts it's their responsibility to set the record straight. An example -- Jeff Smith claims he's an expert on GM safety and has written several books about the dangers. David Tribe (University of Melbourne) and I analyzed all the arguments Smith makes in his book Genetic Roulette. Not one of the claims Smith makes withstands scrutiny--I would call it peer review but Smith isn't a scientist or a peer. You can see our work at a website we created to expose scientific hoaxes. Eventually, we hope to grow the website to cover many scientific issues about which there is a lot of misinformation. Think of it as a place for critical thinking about the facts and the peer-review that was never done.
Giddings: Well that sounds like a great idea, but what do you mean by the "peer-review" that was never done?
Chassy: Most of the claims about GM crops are not based on the scientific ("peer-reviewed") literature. Scientists publish their work and then wait for colleagues to approve or disapprove. Peers will point out flaws in the method, results or conclusions. It's the way we separate the wheat from the chaff in science. Only when work is corroborated, often by independent repetition in another lab, does a scientific consensus of its validity emerge. Bad papers do get past editors and reviewers and get published, but they do not stand the test of time or gain acceptance.
The few shabby anti-GM papers that are in the literature have been rejected by regulatory agencies and the community at large. By contrast, the way biotech opponents do science is to announce it on BBC or in the Huffington Post. They make claims and spread fear based on unpublished studies. Often these claims are based on purportedly preliminary results from studies bought and paid for by anti-GM organizations. The studies are never published but the opponents don't care because their objective to scare people about GMOs, not to advance science. If you want to see how bad their facts and logic are, go to http://academicsreview.org and judge our work for yourself.
Both Chassy and Giddings are well qualified to discuss agbiotech policy intiatives and last July their article Igniting Agricultural Innovation: Biotechnology Policy Prescriptions for a New Administration at Science Policy welcomed the new US administration with some sage advice.
How Public Perception Affects Adoption of Technologies that Help Feed the World
More from correspondent Val Giddings at the BIO conference currently running in Chicago
How Public Perception Affects Adoption of Technologies that Help Feed the World was the topic Wednesday afternoon of one of the liveliest panels we’ve seen in a while. Moderated by Sally Squires (Weber Shandwick, former Washington Post writer) panelists included Margaret Zeigler (Congressional Hunger Center), Michael Specter (The New Yorker, author of Denialism: How Irrational Thinking Hinders Scientific Progress, Harms the Planet, and Threatens our Lives), Maywa Montenegro (Seed Magazine) and Bruce Chassy (University of Illinois).
The session was well attended, nearly SRO, with almost a hundred folks in the audience. Topics ranged widely, though they did not include anything about opinion polling, as one might have assumed from the session title. Instead they touched on common misconceptions about biotech (that biotech foods have less nutrition, or biotech seeds are infertile), how people assess different types of risks differently (and usually at odds with the data). Many things were said by the panelists, most of them true. But there were a few howlers, and perhaps most surprisingly, they never named the elephant in the room: Does public perception affect the adoption of biotechnology? Of course it does. But perhaps not always as one might expect. Data the world over show opposition to be more theoretical than real: folks may say they are opposed, but at point of purchase, with few exceptions, they almost always buy based on quality and cost, where biotech foods stack up very well indeed. But the
perception of consumer resistance makes political decision makers reluctant to remove barriers, and the perception of resistance is the product of smoke, mirrors, and an aggressive, well funded, and ruthless campaign of unrelenting mendacity by self-styled “green” groups who have been called “murderous hypocrites.” Too bad we couldn’t get former European Commission staffer (now retired) Mark Cantley, to join the group and name this beast.
The howlers: in response to a question as to how the situation could be improved, one panelist opined that “We (the sorts of folks in the audience) should “stop vilifying Alice Waters and Michael Pollan”¦” Excuse me? Fair disclosure as the recipient of no small amount of vilification at the hands and pens of biotech opponents, my view may be colored. But the last time I checked the vilification balance was pretty lopsided, with about a hundred examples originating with the mendacious for every one from the data-based pro-science camp. This is not, I am said to say, a textbook example of moral equivalence.
Another howler One panelist offered her informed opinion that small farmers in central America are opposed to biotech because they are skeptical of technological innovation. Let’s see”¦ would these be the same custodians of maize landraces, who have an unmatched and unbroken innovative history spanning ten millennia during which their approach to plant stewardship has made a fetish of importing germplasm, conducting experimental crosses with it, and selecting products from the results to weave into their ongoing harvests? Explanation FAIL.
Third howler A panelist suggested that the role of NGOs has been, on balance, positive in the area of biotech and food. Yes, there have been a small number of vocal NGOs in opposition, but the vast majority of them are honestly and helpfully focused on trying to improve food security for the poor of the earth. Well”¦ I’m not sure I can do better than to quote my teenage daughter: OMG!!!! I am glad to hear that some NGOs are doing good things on food and hunger issues. But until they break ranks with Greenpeace, the Sierra Club, and Friends of the Earth to condemn their profoundly misguided, contrafactual, and anti human campaigns against crops that reduce the environmental footprint of agriculture while increasing quality and safety of food and the economics of smallholder farming they are complicit and indictable.
But what’s a good panel without a howler or two? If you missed it, you missed it. Don’t make the same mistake next year.
“stop vilifying Alice Waters and Michael Pollan”¦”
Hmm. Lets see--- one Peruvian scientist facing jail for speaking out about hear-say nonsense that's unpublished, undisclosed and not peer-reviewed, but still used to achieve political outcomes. Other scientists threatened with legal action to close-down their fair public comment. Time and time again, pro-biotech opinion leaders being branded as shills for Monsanto (and same with this website). Monsanto itself being caste as Monsatan. Websites devoted to listing purported business connections of science commentators which are never checked with the scientists concerned. Outrageous claims against Golden Rice -- e.g its a Trojan Horse, 9 kg needed to have effect --- to deny poor communities and children its benefits for years on end. European blackmail of African countries on trade to persuade them not to use GM technology, even as poverty of farmers in Africa is so different to that of subsidised EU farmers.
And the audience are blamed for giving giving Waters and Pollan a hard-time?.
Yes indeed, we don't have moral-equivalence here. | Immediate Edge Review – Is it Scam? – Crypto Broker

You can log in to your computer and emerge two hours later, having surfed through hundreds of web pages in a single sitting. This effect – one of our attention and our curiosity – is what the world of marketing and content curation is all about: interesting us enough to click on links and watch videos. If you’re hoping to get your business or personal website visited by more people, here are some of the top tips to build an audience online in 2020.
If you know who you’re trying to speak to, a targeted advert is a simple way in which to get placed in front of the very consumers you think will enjoy your website. If you’re a business, this is your ideal customer: the one that’s out likely to shop on your website. If you’re sharing a personal blog, this is anyone you think would find your writing and pictures interesting.
The key to targeting adverts successfully is to ensure there’s a return on your investment. Be careful to target adverts on a trial-and-error basis, checking what works, and A/B testing, to get your balance of investment and return just right. This is an ongoing process, but it’s sure to attract more web users to your website.
Meanwhile, your SEO is another important on-ramp to your website – be that a blog, a portfolio, a directory or a business site. SEO is simply ranking what consumers write into Google’s search bar. Your business will finish on the first page of search results, for given search terms, if you’ve curated your website right and produced a savvy and sound SEO strategy.
It’s often worth talking to SEO agencies in order to help you build out your SEO strategy, as these can require a diverse set of skills that you may not be in full possession of. Meanwhile, to reach new audiences, you should perform SEO boosts in languages other than English. Spanish is the best bet for Americans – with millions of search terms typed in the language every hour.
If you’re running a personal website, nothing can be more important than your social media pages. These are your public-facing profiles – ones that you’re able to share with the wider world to boost traffic to your site and encourage friends, relatives and contacts to explore your content.
For businesses, social media is equally as important. It’s your chance to be a little more casual and conversational with your followers and customers, bringing a little youthful vigor to your interactions. Of course, you’ll need to link heavily to your website to drive traffic from the likes of Facebook and Instagram onto your company site. Use YouTube and up-and-coming Tiktok to boost your performance on these important social media channels.
These three methods are how millions of website owners are boosting their traffic and getting more hits on their pages in 2020. | Capstone Project (Campus-Only Access)

Nonprofit Connection (NPC) Santa Cruz County is an agency that was established in 2020. NPC serves nonprofits in the county by supporting them in communicating, collaborating, and building and strengthening relationships amongst each other. NPC continues to bring agencies together to share common needs and build stronger communities. Early in the year, the heavy rains on New Year's Eve led to flooding, road closures, evacuations, power outages, and people trapped in their homes. Then, a few months later, on March 10th, the levee on the Monterey County side of the Pajaro River failed and displaced hundreds of people, forcing them out of their homes into shelters, cars, and hotels. Based on the interviews with executive directors and other nonprofit leaders from Santa Cruz County, the need for a well-coordinated response contributed to nonprofits becoming frustrated and needing a change of action for future natural disasters.

train_225 | completed | ae187045-5ed0-4f6d-8d4e-73c35c398a51 | The second Loreto College Social Responsibility Awards evening took place recently. This biannual event involves members of the Loreto family nominating worthy recipients, who have gone that ‘extra mile’ and made a real difference in their own communities or further afield.
The Sports Hall was decked out in appropriate finery, musicians played and refreshments were provided, as award winners and guests mixed amiably on a warm sunny evening. Opening proceedings, Principal Peter McGhee welcomed everyone and referred to his long association both with the college and with Catholic education in Manchester generally. He reminded the audience that this was Loreto’s opportunity to recognise in a formal way the often unsung achievements of so many of the wider Loreto family.
These reflections were echoed by the guest speaker, Gulwali Passarlay, who enthralled the audience with his account of a journey, both literal and metaphorical, that took him from a happy childhood in Afghanistan, to a flat in Manchester and the status of an asylum seeker. Gulwali emphasised the fact that no one chooses to be a refugee and he asked the audience to consider the dilemma of his mother, having to send two teenage children on a perilous journey half way across the world. Now a successful student and published author of a fascinating memoir (The Lightless Sky) Gulwali spoke passionately of the empowering impact of education on the lives of young people.
There then followed a procession of truly remarkable, mostly young, people, either highly commended or winners of the various categories. The audience heard of numerous charitable endeavours in the Manchester area, focused on the under represented and vulnerable, sometimes working through faith organisations but often simply the altruistic acts of caring young people. There was recognition for the coordinator of the college Oxbridge programme, for those staff who undertook the trip to Kolkata to work with the Loreto sisters, and those who provide leadership and inspiration on the pilgrimage to Lourdes each year. There was praise for staff members who work tirelessly to support those of our students who are experiencing difficulties in their lives and have to overcome numerous barriers in order to achieve success.
The presentation of two special awards rounded off the evening. Sister Orla Treacy has taken the Loreto message and mission to one of the most troubled and impoverished areas of the world, South Sudan. She is the chief administrator of the Loreto Rumbek Mission in Maker Kuei, overseeing a boarding secondary school for girls, a co-educational primary school, and a women and child-centric primary healthcare facility. Despite the devastating consequences of war in Rumbek, and the many barriers to women and girls in the community, Sister Orla remains filled with hope and the Loreto schools stand as a beacon of light for future South Sudanese generations. A special award was also presented to the recently retired Sean Gaughan. Deputy Principal Andrea Pritchard paid generous tribute to Sean, highlighting his years of loyal service to Loreto, in particular overseeing the massive rebuilding project, his unstinting support of his colleagues, and the wit and sagacity that he always displayed.
This truly inspirational evening, organised with great efficiency by Alison Benson, represents a small, but heartfelt, acknowledgement of the selfless good works carried out by so many members of the wider Loreto family. | Bruce Chassy comments on biotech controversies in Chicago
Chassy comments on biotech controversies in Chicago
via GMO Pundit a.k.a. David Tribe
The BIO Industry Conference, held this year in Chicago, is an annual event that draws thousands of attendees from all over the world to hear the latest and greatest news from all fields of biotechnology.
This year as usual, interest in agricultural biotechnology and its challenges was high. Both the considerable benefits, and the long running controversies about crop GMOs, were discussed from all angles in several well attended sessions.
After one of these sessions, Professor Bruce Chassy (co-founder with Dr David Tribe of the website Academics Review) was interviewed by Agricultural Biotech consultant Dr L. Val Giddings. Here is the transcript of that interview:
VAL GIDDINGS INTERVIEWS BRUCE CHASSY (University of Illinois) -- "WHY THE CONTINUING CONTROVERSY OVER AG BIOTECH?" BIO 2010 -- CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, USA
Wednesday, May 5th. 2010
Giddings: Why is there still controversy about ag biotech after all these years?
Chassy: The science and results are clear: products of biotechnology are probably safer than any others. There is no scientific controversy or doubt about the real-world outcomes. They are all positive, good for consumers, farmers, the environment.
Giddings: Then why do we keep hearing about all the risks of GM crops?
Chassy: There is a well financed and organized global opposition to GM crops that spreads misinformation and fear. Make no mistake about it, this isn't a grass roots opposition, it is a small handful of people who are paid to block GM crops to benefit certain countries and companies that profit from higher prices for organic and GM-free foods.
Giddings: How can we set the record straight?
Chassy: There is nobody credible talking in favor of GM crops. The industry can't do it, they have a clear conflict of interest. It's not the regulators job--they regulate and stay neutral; USDA and FDA are afraid of being sued by these groups already. The food industry isn't going to fight for GM crops, especially when they make more money from organic foods. Then there are the scientists: they know the truth, but it's not their job to argue with the NGOs. They have labs to run, students to teach, grants and papers to write. So at the end of the day, there is nobody to advocate for an accurate and impartial representation of the facts about GM crops.
Giddings: What can be done about it?
Chassy: Scientists need to speak out and realize that if someone else distorts the facts it's their responsibility to set the record straight. An example -- Jeff Smith claims he's an expert on GM safety and has written several books about the dangers. David Tribe (University of Melbourne) and I analyzed all the arguments Smith makes in his book Genetic Roulette. Not one of the claims Smith makes withstands scrutiny--I would call it peer review but Smith isn't a scientist or a peer. You can see our work at a website we created to expose scientific hoaxes. Eventually, we hope to grow the website to cover many scientific issues about which there is a lot of misinformation. Think of it as a place for critical thinking about the facts and the peer-review that was never done.
Giddings: Well that sounds like a great idea, but what do you mean by the "peer-review" that was never done?
Chassy: Most of the claims about GM crops are not based on the scientific ("peer-reviewed") literature. Scientists publish their work and then wait for colleagues to approve or disapprove. Peers will point out flaws in the method, results or conclusions. It's the way we separate the wheat from the chaff in science. Only when work is corroborated, often by independent repetition in another lab, does a scientific consensus of its validity emerge. Bad papers do get past editors and reviewers and get published, but they do not stand the test of time or gain acceptance.
The few shabby anti-GM papers that are in the literature have been rejected by regulatory agencies and the community at large. By contrast, the way biotech opponents do science is to announce it on BBC or in the Huffington Post. They make claims and spread fear based on unpublished studies. Often these claims are based on purportedly preliminary results from studies bought and paid for by anti-GM organizations. The studies are never published but the opponents don't care because their objective to scare people about GMOs, not to advance science. If you want to see how bad their facts and logic are, go to http://academicsreview.org and judge our work for yourself.
Both Chassy and Giddings are well qualified to discuss agbiotech policy intiatives and last July their article Igniting Agricultural Innovation: Biotechnology Policy Prescriptions for a New Administration at Science Policy welcomed the new US administration with some sage advice.
How Public Perception Affects Adoption of Technologies that Help Feed the World
More from correspondent Val Giddings at the BIO conference currently running in Chicago
How Public Perception Affects Adoption of Technologies that Help Feed the World was the topic Wednesday afternoon of one of the liveliest panels we’ve seen in a while. Moderated by Sally Squires (Weber Shandwick, former Washington Post writer) panelists included Margaret Zeigler (Congressional Hunger Center), Michael Specter (The New Yorker, author of Denialism: How Irrational Thinking Hinders Scientific Progress, Harms the Planet, and Threatens our Lives), Maywa Montenegro (Seed Magazine) and Bruce Chassy (University of Illinois).
The session was well attended, nearly SRO, with almost a hundred folks in the audience. Topics ranged widely, though they did not include anything about opinion polling, as one might have assumed from the session title. Instead they touched on common misconceptions about biotech (that biotech foods have less nutrition, or biotech seeds are infertile), how people assess different types of risks differently (and usually at odds with the data). Many things were said by the panelists, most of them true. But there were a few howlers, and perhaps most surprisingly, they never named the elephant in the room: Does public perception affect the adoption of biotechnology? Of course it does. But perhaps not always as one might expect. Data the world over show opposition to be more theoretical than real: folks may say they are opposed, but at point of purchase, with few exceptions, they almost always buy based on quality and cost, where biotech foods stack up very well indeed. But the
perception of consumer resistance makes political decision makers reluctant to remove barriers, and the perception of resistance is the product of smoke, mirrors, and an aggressive, well funded, and ruthless campaign of unrelenting mendacity by self-styled “green” groups who have been called “murderous hypocrites.” Too bad we couldn’t get former European Commission staffer (now retired) Mark Cantley, to join the group and name this beast.
The howlers: in response to a question as to how the situation could be improved, one panelist opined that “We (the sorts of folks in the audience) should “stop vilifying Alice Waters and Michael Pollan”¦” Excuse me? Fair disclosure as the recipient of no small amount of vilification at the hands and pens of biotech opponents, my view may be colored. But the last time I checked the vilification balance was pretty lopsided, with about a hundred examples originating with the mendacious for every one from the data-based pro-science camp. This is not, I am said to say, a textbook example of moral equivalence.
Another howler One panelist offered her informed opinion that small farmers in central America are opposed to biotech because they are skeptical of technological innovation. Let’s see”¦ would these be the same custodians of maize landraces, who have an unmatched and unbroken innovative history spanning ten millennia during which their approach to plant stewardship has made a fetish of importing germplasm, conducting experimental crosses with it, and selecting products from the results to weave into their ongoing harvests? Explanation FAIL.
Third howler A panelist suggested that the role of NGOs has been, on balance, positive in the area of biotech and food. Yes, there have been a small number of vocal NGOs in opposition, but the vast majority of them are honestly and helpfully focused on trying to improve food security for the poor of the earth. Well”¦ I’m not sure I can do better than to quote my teenage daughter: OMG!!!! I am glad to hear that some NGOs are doing good things on food and hunger issues. But until they break ranks with Greenpeace, the Sierra Club, and Friends of the Earth to condemn their profoundly misguided, contrafactual, and anti human campaigns against crops that reduce the environmental footprint of agriculture while increasing quality and safety of food and the economics of smallholder farming they are complicit and indictable.
But what’s a good panel without a howler or two? If you missed it, you missed it. Don’t make the same mistake next year.
“stop vilifying Alice Waters and Michael Pollan”¦”
Hmm. Lets see--- one Peruvian scientist facing jail for speaking out about hear-say nonsense that's unpublished, undisclosed and not peer-reviewed, but still used to achieve political outcomes. Other scientists threatened with legal action to close-down their fair public comment. Time and time again, pro-biotech opinion leaders being branded as shills for Monsanto (and same with this website). Monsanto itself being caste as Monsatan. Websites devoted to listing purported business connections of science commentators which are never checked with the scientists concerned. Outrageous claims against Golden Rice -- e.g its a Trojan Horse, 9 kg needed to have effect --- to deny poor communities and children its benefits for years on end. European blackmail of African countries on trade to persuade them not to use GM technology, even as poverty of farmers in Africa is so different to that of subsidised EU farmers.
And the audience are blamed for giving giving Waters and Pollan a hard-time?.
Yes indeed, we don't have moral-equivalence here. | 225 | 67 | 69 | 2 | 2 | [

The joint research project, funded by UOW’s Community Engagement Grants Scheme, aims to understand gaps in the knowledge and skills of diversity service workers when servicing culturally diverse LGBTIQ+ communities in the context of COVID-19.
‘This is a wonderful opportunity to pilot a collaborative approach to understanding the level of LGBTIQA+ acceptance, knowledge and skills of ADS’s service workers,’ said Anthony Scerri, ADS’s Manager for Settlement and Community Services.
‘Once we identify gaps, we can effectively target staff training. Our ultimate aim is to ensure people from CALD LGBTIQ+ communities receive the services they need and feel welcome and included.’
Dr Quah Ee Ling Sharon, Senior Lecturer in Sociology, School of Humanities and Social Inquiry, is leading the research project. Dr Qua is a Singaporean-Chinese queer migrant woman academic whose work draws from decolonial, transnational and intersectional feminist perspectives and centres round community-based research, inequalities and social justice.
She said she was happy to be collaborating with ADS on the project to bring better outcomes for CALD LGBTIQA+ people.
Three innovative projects were chosen for UOW’s 2020 Community Engagement Grants Scheme launched at a virtual celebration on October 22.
Monique Harper-Richardson, Director of Advancement, UOW, and President of the UOW’s USA Foundation, said the quality of this year’s applications for grants was ‘at the highest level’ and all projects funded focused on resilience and recovery for communities affected by COVID-19.
‘These are extraordinary projects and I’m incredibly excited. I also extend my sincere congratulations to the three recipients.’
Special guest at the celebration Dr Belinda Kathlyn Gibbons, Senior Lecturer Faculty of Business, Sydney Business School, UOW, said the grants would help to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals ‘to care for all things and to leave no one behind’.
Mr Scerri said the pandemic had been hard on many in the community and especially marginalised people from diverse backgrounds.
‘This research will help to ensure LGBTIQA+ people from CALD backgrounds receive the best and most appropriate service possible.’

Your business will finish on the first page of search results, for given search terms, if you’ve curated your website right and produced a savvy and sound SEO strategy.
It’s often worth talking to SEO agencies in order to help you build out your SEO strategy, as these can require a diverse set of skills that you may not be in full possession of. Meanwhile, to reach new audiences, you should perform SEO boosts in languages other than English. Spanish is the best bet for Americans – with millions of search terms typed in the language every hour.
If you’re running a personal website, nothing can be more important than your social media pages. These are your public-facing profiles – ones that you’re able to share with the wider world to boost traffic to your site and encourage friends, relatives and contacts to explore your content.
For businesses, social media is equally as important. It’s your chance to be a little more casual and conversational with your followers and customers, bringing a little youthful vigor to your interactions. Of course, you’ll need to link heavily to your website to drive traffic from the likes of Facebook and Instagram onto your company site. Use YouTube and up-and-coming Tiktok to boost your performance on these important social media channels.
These three methods are how millions of website owners are boosting their traffic and getting more hits on their pages in 2020. | 227 | 39 | 76 | 1 | 2 | [

Megan Roup, celebrity trainer and creator of The Sculpt Society launched an in-person four-city tour across the US this fall and we were thrilled to be a part of The Sculpt Society IRL Tour’s SOLD OUT stop in New York City!
The immersive experience included her unparalleled fitness method, special guests, meet + greets, "fireside chats,” retail opportunities, on-site beauty, health and wellness activations, as well as an incredible swag bag for participants to take home, including Jollie’s Nuts and Bolts and Palm print Plush Mats. Our mats were used throughout the killer workout and seeing our product in action was truly an incredible experience. Thank you, Megan -- it was such an honor to have our product alongside your passionate team and witness your workout in person!
Here are our 5 takeaways after experiencing and participating in TSS IRL:
NYC is still NYC!
It’s been a while since we’ve been to New York City and it was so much fun to enjoy the vibrance and beautiful weather. Although some things have changed post-COVID (the crowds are not as large and a lot of stores are closed), you can feel the spirit is still there and people are coming back.
It was so fun to see Hudson yards and the Vessel in person. The Vessel is an interactive artwork imagined by Thomas Heatherwick and Heatherwick Studio comprised of 154 intricately interconnecting flights of stairs -- almost 2,500 individual steps and 80 landings. This sculpture provided the most breathtaking backdrop for the live event. It is such a fun new development with lots of shops and fun restaurants and a straight view of the Hudson River.
The Sculpt Society’s at-home sculpting workout programs are amazing to take and watch! No wonder why they are the #1 Sculpt & Dance Cardio Workout! They are great for anyone with busy schedules, and we love that her classes can be as short as 15 minutes to fit a bit of mindful movement into a busy day!
The energy was so positive and exciting! We were really inspired by the community of people from the TSS team, other vendors and participants, and walked away feeling so full of energy!
We were humbled by the number of people that told us how much they loved their Plush Mats! Of course *we* know they are great, but to see people use it and then immediately fall in love is exciting! THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to say hello & give us such warm feedback.
Thank you again to Megan (and her entire team) and all of the inspiring attendees who made this day so incredible. | 228 | 5 | 92 | 0 | 1 | [

train_229 | completed | 5b9428f6-2a4f-4f19-9d12-1f793a1d990c | Scooby doo this crap getting all hyped up because Doctor Strange uses it in the Spider-Man: No Way Home. Stay tuned for the full picture.
Spider-Man: No way home is now no newer for us. Because of the trailers, many things are now coming up which are attached to the character directly or indirectly.
Let us look at the full insights.
Although all the characters are equally important in Spider-Man: No way home, villains and heroes are paramount to be considered. On a similar note, the fans were all ears when Doctor strange quoted Spider Man that “Scooby doo this crap.”
Spider-Man: No way home trailer this time has come up with suspense; surprisingly, people wonder why Doctor strange calls Peter Parker like this.
The whole incident has a clear logic behind it because villains in the movie do not recognize Peter Parker as Spider-Man, as Doc ock also narrates Peter Parker as “You’re not Peter Parker.”
Apart from some particular scenes, more than half of the film is based on villains targeting Peter Parker and among the villains.
In the movie, Doctor strange firmly believes that all spider man villains have to die; eventually, Peter Parker wants the opposite, i.e., he wants to save them all.
Since the first time the trailers of a movie were released, fans are in no surprise breaking each scene into different segments and trying to understand the scenes in clarity. Moreover, in one scene, the fans have understandably noticed Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man eyes.
If we just remove away a bit from the track, then the whole line “Scooby doo this crap” has a logical meaning within itself.
According to many experts, the line is related to a joke, which was very well crafted in three Ghosts of Scooby-Doo, where a warlock (who looks a lot like the MCU Doctor Strange) helps Scooby. The gang returns thirteen dangerous ghosts to captivity in a chest.
It is directly related to the Scooby-doo part because in the cartoon also, it is seen that a bunch of kids let all the ghosts try to fix the chest, and similarly it is noticed in Spider-Man: No Way Home also where a kid helps the villains to fix up where they come from.
This particular incident shows that both things have so much in common.
The whole theme of the particular incident is creative and shows a great observation by the producers and scriptwriter that they inserted it here. | Explore the Hidden Gem of Romania: Ceacu – A Perfect Blend of Nature and Culture

train_230 | completed | 9fa7e591-9d60-47bb-b934-559f383500df | Boston is fortunate to have large, intact, precincts of fine scaled historic fabric whose character and conservation is carefully monitored through established regulatory processes. However, many historic neighborhoods in thriving cities have been significantly altered by modern, haphazard development. The resulting fragmentation makes the crafting of conservation guidelines a nuanced and daunting exercise, especially as these are often contested spaces in which community aspirations compete with development forces to preserve the integrity and affordability of their district. Nowhere is this more evident than in Chinatown, cleaved by two interstate highways and bounded by Boston’s high-rise downtown core, an intermodal transportation center and the continuously expanding Tufts New England Medical Center (TNEMC). For decades, with strong community support, Chinatown has struggled to simultaneously sustain its identity and cohesion as a neighborhood, while improving the quality of life for its inhabitants.
The South Cove neighborhood that became Chinatown was built on fill, a process that began in the 1830s. The Chinese began to settle this area before 1880, following waves of Irish, Jewish and Syrian immigrants, and had established a coherent, identifiable community in roughly the area occupied today by the 1940s. The buildings of this precinct are highly varied from mid-19th century brick rowhouses through turn of the 20th century manufacturing lofts and a plethora of modern era and recent development.
The purpose of this studio is to aid the community in the development of plans and guidelines to protect the integrity of those areas of Chinatown currently lacking historic designation; it will have two foci: The first will be to map and evaluate the physical and cultural history and general urban morphology of Chinatown with an eye to what has value and why. Students will identify ways in which resources may be protected, and where appropriate enhanced through sustainable development. Deliverables for this portion of the studio will be illustrated analytical maps identifying the type and location of historic fabric, with preliminary asset classification utilizing values-based conservation criteria and including a listing of general exterior character defining features.
The second half of the studio will be a design/planning implementation exercise incorporating knowledge gained in the first half, using one of three types of options. The first is to propose a program and concept level design for a vacant site, suggested at this time to be Parcel R-1, a cleared site bounded by Tyler, Harvard and Hudson Streets. An alternative infill site may be proposed with the instructor’s concurrence. The second option is to renovate an existing building within the district such as the 125 Lincoln St. Parking garage – which would be adapted for non-automobile mixed use. The third choice, geared particularly to Planning students, is to develop and present a more in-depth conservation planning study.
The studio will be informed by visits to the site, guest lectures, and meetings and a possible workshop with both community representatives and officials from the City of Boston. | Home Internet in Wiley Ford, WV

Best Internet Provider In Wiley Ford, WV
In Wiley Ford, West Virginia, Frontier ranks first amongst its internet service competitors, offering a DSL connection to 44% of the town. Frontier's plans support download speeds ranging from 10 to 115 Mbps, facilitating seamless online activities such as streaming, gaming, or video conferencing. While their coverage is less extensive, Frontier sets the standard with download speeds, justifying their monthly cost of $64.99.
Contrastingly, Viasat Internet and HughesNet, donning the second and third ranks, ensure a comprehensive satellite connection reaching every corner of Wiley Ford. But their maximum download speeds pale in comparison; Viasat offers 30 Mbps and HughesNet trails with 25 Mbps. However, with an affordable starting price of $49.99 per month and 100% availability, they guarantee uninterrupted internet access for all residents. Despite the absence of fiber connections, these providers strive relentlessly to satisfy Wiley Ford's internet demands.

train_231 | completed | f56b39ba-9672-4552-b07c-0a843179970b | Chinese truck tyres: EC proposes revised anti-dumping duties
Thanks to an internal document sent to EU member states and national tyre trade associations, we now have a clearer idea about what form the European Commission’s final anti-dumping measures against Chinese truck and bus tyres may take. The Commission favours a system of fixed, per-tyre duties similar to the preliminary duties introduced in May; the silver lining for Chinese tyre makers is that it has recommended these duties be reduced.
When preliminary anti-dumping duties were announced in May the highest per-tyre duty, applicable to products from Xingyuan Tire Group and “all other companies,” was 82.17 euros per tyre; the Commission now proposes a top rate of 55.96 euros per tyre, a 32 per cent reduction. Other manufacturers also fare well under the Commission’s proposals.
Hankook should pay just 43.86 euros instead of 52.85 euros for every tyre it imports from China; admittedly, the company says the duties are irrelevant as it no longer imports truck and bus tyres from China, having shifted production to other locations in anticipation of coming duties. The proposed rate applicable to Giti Tire has dropped from 57.42 euros to 47.51 euros per tyre. A sizable reduction has been proposed for the Aeolus group and Pirelli, and if adopted it will see its tyres charged at a rate of 44.94 euros per unit instead of 64.13 euros.
All other “cooperating companies” would pay 47.13 euros per tyre instead of the 62.79 euros charged under the preliminary duties. Duties would thus range from 43.86 euros to 55.96 euros rather than the preliminary duties of 52.85 euros to 82.17 euros per tyre.
The proposed rates have been set out in a General Disclosure Document and do not represent the Commission’s final decision on the matter. Affected parties now have the opportunity to respond to the proposals. That said, the document may be interpreted as confirmation of the European Commission’s intentions. We will know for sure in November at the latest. | 5 Takeaways from The Sculpt Society IRL Tour

Look for short signal up to 0,795. Mind the 0,76 support level. Should it break, aim for 0,70.
The weekly AUDUSD chart show us a range -roughly- between 0,795 and 0,76. The weekly candle is a gravestone doji/shooting star falling from the ,79 resistance and that means we are probably going to retest the support around 0,76.
AU WEEKLY CHART.
The monthly chart shows the pair being trading at SMA200 level around 0,76, which probably explains the support we see at that level. As the 0,795 resistance level looks rather strong, we expect the SMA200 to be eventually broken down, opening the way to the next fib support, that is the ,786 retracement level around 0,70.
AU MONTHLY CHART.
2-USDCAD trading plan.
Buy dips above 1,2475 (watch 1,25 and 1,2525 levels for bullish signals) aiming for 1,2825 and above.
The loonie has been ranging for eight weeks, but last weekly candle, rising from the support with a long down wick tells us the pair is probably heading for the range resistance at 1,2825.
USDCAD WEEKLY CHART.
The daily chart shows a bullish engulfing candle (download ENGULFING-BAR indicator here>) rising from the SMA55, now a support at 1,2475 ; SMA40 has also been broken up in the process. As the candle is a bullish engulfing, we expect the move up to continue and will buy pull back as long as we are above that Daily SMA55. 1,25 and 1,2525 levels (see chart) are supports from which the pair may also bounce up. We will first target the range resistance at 1,2825, but should that level be reached, we will let some part of the trade opened in case it would be finally broken up.
USDCAD DAILY CHART.
3-EURJPY trading plan.
Buy above 131 on a retest after a bullish break out towards 134. Sell rallies under 131 towards 128.
On the weekly EJ seems to be rejecting for the second time a former broken support around 131 . We also broke down the 130 level. The last weekly candle is however a doji, and that means an indecision : the pair may still bounce up. This may be due to the monthly SMA200 that stands as a support around 128. Note that the pair made a lower high and a lower low.
EJ WEEKLY CHART.
The daily chart shows us a clean break down of the 131 level on Thursday, followed by a doji on Friday. All SMAs are now starting to point down. This is why we think the 131 level will hold as a resistance, and we will look to sell rallies under it, towards the monthly SMA200 around128. Should the 131 level not hold and be broken up, we will wait for a retest to enter long towards 134.

Lisa built Isca Recruitment from the ground up, and worked hard to enable its growth. The main driver for Lisa, at the business’s inception, was to offer a superb service to the local area using her indepth knowledge of the local market.
In September 2021 Lisa decided to take a more “back seat” role in the business to focus on her other passions, however she still very much has her finger on the pulse.

HOOVER—Bright colors, delicious treats and eye catching items are what the Gingerbread Lady is all about, store owner Ellen Morris said. Currently located in Irondale, the shop will soon bring its cheer to U.S. 280, relocating to the Greystone Center.
“It’s a regular gift shop and then some,” Morris said of her shop, which carries an assortment of items for nearly everyone.
For the avid sports fan, Morris carries a number of college team-themed goods; for the wine enthusiast, the shop offers a selection of wine caddies from Germany; and for the cook, there are gourmet foods, edible glitter, melting chocolate, professional baking utensils and more. And of course, there are gingerbread houses.
Morris’ creations are not your average gingerbread house, they’re works of art. Morris has been making gingerbread houses for more than 50 years, and her work has graced the Christmas set of the television show, “The Young and the Restless.”
“(As a child) I wanted to be a famous artist… I never envisioned I would be famous for gingerbread houses,” Morris said. “You stumble into things in life.”
Gingerbread houses are available for purchase year round. Shoppers can buy premade houses or request a customized design. Morris’ gingerbread architecture has included castles, merry-go-rounds, trains and mansions.
Customers can expect to find quality items and good prices at the Gingerbread Lady, Morris said.
“I have always not done normal retail markup and I will continue to not do that,” Morris said. “There is a difference between a small profit and greed and I’ve always gone for the small profit.”
After a difficult year, Morris said she is looking forward to the new year and moving to U.S. 280. Her husband passed away in August 2015, and Morris said before he died, he requested she relocate back to U.S. 280. The shop had previously been located in the Colonnade near U.S. 280.
“Two weeks after he died is when I signed the lease,” Morris said. “It’s a new beginning for me, it’s something I need to do after the death of my husband.”
Although an exact opening date has not been determined, Morris said she expects the shop to open soon.
For more information about the Gingerbread Lady, visit Thegingerbreadlady.com. | Boston is fortunate to have large, intact, precincts of fine scaled historic fabric whose character and conservation is carefully monitored through established regulatory processes. However, many historic neighborhoods in thriving cities have been significantly altered by modern, haphazard development. The resulting fragmentation makes the crafting of conservation guidelines a nuanced and daunting exercise, especially as these are often contested spaces in which community aspirations compete with development forces to preserve the integrity and affordability of their district. Nowhere is this more evident than in Chinatown, cleaved by two interstate highways and bounded by Boston’s high-rise downtown core, an intermodal transportation center and the continuously expanding Tufts New England Medical Center (TNEMC). For decades, with strong community support, Chinatown has struggled to simultaneously sustain its identity and cohesion as a neighborhood, while improving the quality of life for its inhabitants.
The South Cove neighborhood that became Chinatown was built on fill, a process that began in the 1830s. The Chinese began to settle this area before 1880, following waves of Irish, Jewish and Syrian immigrants, and had established a coherent, identifiable community in roughly the area occupied today by the 1940s. The buildings of this precinct are highly varied from mid-19th century brick rowhouses through turn of the 20th century manufacturing lofts and a plethora of modern era and recent development.
The purpose of this studio is to aid the community in the development of plans and guidelines to protect the integrity of those areas of Chinatown currently lacking historic designation; it will have two foci: The first will be to map and evaluate the physical and cultural history and general urban morphology of Chinatown with an eye to what has value and why. Students will identify ways in which resources may be protected, and where appropriate enhanced through sustainable development. Deliverables for this portion of the studio will be illustrated analytical maps identifying the type and location of historic fabric, with preliminary asset classification utilizing values-based conservation criteria and including a listing of general exterior character defining features.
The second half of the studio will be a design/planning implementation exercise incorporating knowledge gained in the first half, using one of three types of options. The first is to propose a program and concept level design for a vacant site, suggested at this time to be Parcel R-1, a cleared site bounded by Tyler, Harvard and Hudson Streets. An alternative infill site may be proposed with the instructor’s concurrence. The second option is to renovate an existing building within the district such as the 125 Lincoln St. Parking garage – which would be adapted for non-automobile mixed use. The third choice, geared particularly to Planning students, is to develop and present a more in-depth conservation planning study.
The studio will be informed by visits to the site, guest lectures, and meetings and a possible workshop with both community representatives and officials from the City of Boston. | 235 | 22 | 29 | 1 | 2 | [

3M Peltor’s LEP-200 Level Dependant Earplugs are tiny, in-ear buds that will offer up to 16 hours of operation from their internal lithium ion batteries after a 90-minute charge. They come in a pocket-sized case weighing 272 grams including 3xAA batteries to charge the buds wirelessly when they are clipped into place for storage. There are three adjustable volume levels from single short presses of the control button, with longer ones required for turn ON/ OFF. Button controllers either side for comfortable hearing in normal ambient environments and miniature internal electronics wirelessly receive audio signals from the optional neck loop accessory.
This loop hangs under clothes, forming a 50c transmission ‘bubble’ around your head, it plugs into any 3.5mm audio port, so something like a field radio in your pocket can be heard without the hassle of extra wires connected to your ears. This also guards against possible eavesdropping in more clandestine roles. Reusable rubberised UltraFit™ Eartips are supplied in small, medium and large for a versatile fit, with a 32bD SNR reduction rating (SNR Tested in accordance with PPE directive 89/686/EEC). Triple C foam type disposable Eartips offering 36dB are also compatible with yet higher 38dB ‘skull screw’ types available for ultimate sound deadening.
In use, the omni-directional microphones gave great spacial awareness when on a driven boar hunt, where I elected for the foam type tips for most comfort, although my small ear canals did feel a bit weary after three hours. Not everyone’s ears are as small as mine though and that is a serious fact to consider. Radio comms on the optional neck loop were excellent, as nothing interfered with the unrestricted head movement so mandatory for intuitive shooting.
Each single control button is simple to use bare handed or with gloves and perhaps most important, the rounded shape of the external unit never feels weighty or abrasive against your outer ear canal. After two hours, they turn off automatically to save battery life, which to be fair, lasted me all three days of the hunt. Yet, like other Peltor products, they warn you with beeps several times during the final 60 seconds of operation. A lanyard is included to hang them around your neck when not in use as well as detailed instructions of how to insert them correctly for the best protection.
A Low battery tone repeats every five minutes of the last hour before they are going to fade out completely but with a simple clip back into the storage case enabling a recharge, I never actually heard this on my three day trip. They are quite expensive, and I wouldn’t use them for constant rifle shooting, but in wide open spaces, they are ideal for all sorts of hunting scenarios and without any undue interference into normal shooting operations. Plus, you stay in contact with your fellows almost subconsciously. | 236 | 6 | 30 | 1 | 0 | [

Gambling has long been accepted as a dependable alternative for people who enjoy it. It’s crucial to realize that a player’s potential earnings are influenced by their level of expertise and the kind of online slots they choose to play at. The latter has a greater effect, therefore careful consideration must be given to your choice. The following factors need to be taken into account while picking a trustworthy casino.
One must first think about how to compete with the casino’s wide variety of games. This is the secret to winning at gambling and realizing big cash gains. The casino you should choose is the one having the games you excel at. As a result, your odds of winning at gambling will rise. Having access to a variety of games also reduces the time needed to test out a new game.
The player should be able to contact a trustworthy person for assistance when an issue develops. Internet slots require a strong customer care staff because of this. When mistakes do happen, it is the player’s responsibility to choose สล็อต pg เว็บตรง ไม่ผ่านเอเย่นต์ฝากถอนไม่มีขั้นต่ํา with a better reputation. The simplest way to evaluate the caliber of customer service provided is to look at the desired casino’s contact information and customer evaluations. The worst thing anyone can do is join a casino with subpar customer service where exploitation is commonplace.
The goal of joining an online casino is to make money. As a result, it seems prudent to choose the casino with the best odds. Players are recommended to take a look at the incentives offered to offset this factor. Most online slots offer free bonuses that allow one to increase their winnings without incurring any risks in an effort to get players to play more. Finding out how much bonuses are need to support oneself is also important.
When it comes to gaming, the reputation of a certain casino is the factor that is most frequently disregarded. Some people frequently forget that not all slots that seem reputable are actually legitimate. Players are highly recommended to carefully investigate the reputation a certain casino has built in order to be on the safe side. It’s crucial to be aware of what other people may be thinking. One could prevent falling prey to exploitation in Direct Web Slots No agent (สล็อต เว็บตรงไม่ผ่านเอเย่นต์ ล่าสุด) by remembering this.
Rules and Regulations
It’s important to carefully read the terms and conditions that the specific casino has provided. The key to getting the most out of your gambling is this. One is apt to become irate if the terms and conditions are unfavorable. Players are strongly advised to compare the terms of different slots and choose the most benevolent one in order to prevent such incidents.
Playing craps in a noisy environment is also entertaining when people are bumping into each other from all sides to get closer to the table. Players at online slots are limited to monotonous mouse clicks and perhaps some canned ambient music because online slots are unable to replicate the rich experience of playing at a busy craps table.
Though more and more players are beginning to get used to rolling virtual dice, there is still hope for online casino craps. The advantages of playing online casino craps are being recognized by a growing number of players.
The most important of these is that amateur players who like to learn the rules of craps can first become familiar with the game and sort of get a feel for the craps table before playing in actual slots, where the environment will be hostile to untrained players. Fans of craps are discovering that the quickest way to satisfy their cravings is to play it online and that craps remain craps. Then there is the financial justification: many websites offer free online casino games, and who doesn’t want something for nothing in today’s world? | While a gluten-free diet is not a new idea in the field of nutrition, it has gained popularity over the years.
At first, the concept of “gluten-free” was only something people suffering celiac disease were interested in, but they make a small part of the population. Then followed the 7% of people with gluten sensitivity. As more products were flooding the market and gluten-free diet was gaining more media popularity, other people decided to go with the flow as well.
In reality, in 2017, we could see the data that the number of Americans excluding gluten from their diet has tripled since 2009, even if the number of celiac disease patients and gluten intolerant individuals remained the same.
Regardless of whether you want to “break up” with gluten forever because you have to or because you want to, here are some things you need to know before going gluten-free.
Gluten isn’t the “boogeyman” of the nutrition
The most important thing to know before you continue reading is that gluten isn’t, by itself, a bad ingredient. On the contrary, the fiber in whole grain has many health benefits. These include promoting gut health, controlling blood sugar, and reducing the risk of heart disease.
You should talk to a doctor
If you want to give up on gluten because you think you may have celiac disease, first you should consult a doctor to run some blood tests in order to determine your condition. The blood checks will only show accurate results if you are eating gluten on a regular basis.
As for gluten sensitivity, you should know that it doesn’t manifest only as a stomach condition. It can also affect the brain, immune system, and other aspects of your health. So, even if you don’t suspect you could be sensitive to gluten, you can run some test to know for certain.
It is not a weight loss diet
Some people decide to ditch gluten from their nutrition so they can lose weight more easily. However, the chances are that it won’t make a big difference. On the contrary, if you embrace a gluten-free lifestyle based mostly on commercial gluten-free foods, you could even gain weight. This happens because so many commercial gluten-free products are lower in fiber and higher in carbs than their gluten-packed counterparts.
The wheat is not the only thing you should be avoiding
You will also need to cut out barley and rye completely (meaning that you won’t be able to drink most beers).
When considering going gluten-free, most people think that they will only have to give up on wheat, and nothing more. Unfortunately, that is not the case. In general, you should be careful when reading the label of most of the products, including oats, spice mixes, and other packaged foods, because gluten tends to pop up in the most unexpected goods. However, even the labels won’t always tell you the truth, so try to research the brands with online databases.
Going gluten-free doesn’t have to be a sacrifice
We understand you: what could possibly be as delicious as eating a loaf of bread and finishing up with a pint of beer? Well, boy do we have news for you, gluten-free bread can be soft and delicious, tasteful cakes and cookies can also be gluten-free. There also plenty of brands producing refreshing gluten-free beer.
Also, there are plenty of healthy and enjoyable foods that are naturally gluten-free, such as eggs, fish, seafood, turkey, chicken, vegetables, fruits, potatoes, corn, nuts, rice, seeds, and many others.
The challenges of cooking without gluten
There is no doubt that gluten-free recipes can be delicious. However, it must be said that cooking without gluten requires additional considerations. This can make your hours in the kitchen much more complicated than they were before. Not only that you will need to scout for the ingredients carefully, but you will also need to look for various recipes, which can’t necessarily be found on paleo websites and books since paleo doesn’t focus exclusively on avoiding gluten.
The beginnings are always hard
The process of going gluten-free can be emotionally exhausting and sometimes even physically hard. It can leave you frustrated and ready to throw in the towel every day. However, please be aware that with time it will get easier. The most important is that you are aware of your reason and that the people surrounding you are supportive.
By now, you probably already have a clear picture of what a gluten-free diet looks like, and what are its flaws and benefits. Unless you have celiac disease and you need to do this for your health, this is a deeply personal decision you should make only when you get all the necessary information. | 238 | 24 | 53 | 1 | 3 | [

You can log in to your computer and emerge two hours later, having surfed through hundreds of web pages in a single sitting. This effect – one of our attention and our curiosity – is what the world of marketing and content curation is all about: interesting us enough to click on links and watch videos. If you’re hoping to get your business or personal website visited by more people, here are some of the top tips to build an audience online in 2020.
If you know who you’re trying to speak to, a targeted advert is a simple way in which to get placed in front of the very consumers you think will enjoy your website. If you’re a business, this is your ideal customer: the one that’s out likely to shop on your website. If you’re sharing a personal blog, this is anyone you think would find your writing and pictures interesting.
The key to targeting adverts successfully is to ensure there’s a return on your investment. Be careful to target adverts on a trial-and-error basis, checking what works, and A/B testing, to get your balance of investment and return just right. This is an ongoing process, but it’s sure to attract more web users to your website.
Meanwhile, your SEO is another important on-ramp to your website – be that a blog, a portfolio, a directory or a business site. SEO is simply ranking what consumers write into Google’s search bar. Your business will finish on the first page of search results, for given search terms, if you’ve curated your website right and produced a savvy and sound SEO strategy.
It’s often worth talking to SEO agencies in order to help you build out your SEO strategy, as these can require a diverse set of skills that you may not be in full possession of. Meanwhile, to reach new audiences, you should perform SEO boosts in languages other than English. Spanish is the best bet for Americans – with millions of search terms typed in the language every hour.
If you’re running a personal website, nothing can be more important than your social media pages. These are your public-facing profiles – ones that you’re able to share with the wider world to boost traffic to your site and encourage friends, relatives and contacts to explore your content.
For businesses, social media is equally as important. It’s your chance to be a little more casual and conversational with your followers and customers, bringing a little youthful vigor to your interactions. Of course, you’ll need to link heavily to your website to drive traffic from the likes of Facebook and Instagram onto your company site. Use YouTube and up-and-coming Tiktok to boost your performance on these important social media channels.
These three methods are how millions of website owners are boosting their traffic and getting more hits on their pages in 2020. | 240 | 53 | 76 | 3 | 2 | [

Rules and Regulations
It’s important to carefully read the terms and conditions that the specific casino has provided. The key to getting the most out of your gambling is this. One is apt to become irate if the terms and conditions are unfavorable. Players are strongly advised to compare the terms of different slots and choose the most benevolent one in order to prevent such incidents.
Playing craps in a noisy environment is also entertaining when people are bumping into each other from all sides to get closer to the table. Players at online slots are limited to monotonous mouse clicks and perhaps some canned ambient music because online slots are unable to replicate the rich experience of playing at a busy craps table.
Though more and more players are beginning to get used to rolling virtual dice, there is still hope for online casino craps. The advantages of playing online casino craps are being recognized by a growing number of players.
The most important of these is that amateur players who like to learn the rules of craps can first become familiar with the game and sort of get a feel for the craps table before playing in actual slots, where the environment will be hostile to untrained players. Fans of craps are discovering that the quickest way to satisfy their cravings is to play it online and that craps remain craps. Then there is the financial justification: many websites offer free online casino games, and who doesn’t want something for nothing in today’s world? | Any frequent user of the world wide web knows that it’s a rabbit hole. You can log in to your computer and emerge two hours later, having surfed through hundreds of web pages in a single sitting. This effect – one of our attention and our curiosity – is what the world of marketing and content curation is all about: interesting us enough to click on links and watch videos. If you’re hoping to get your business or personal website visited by more people, here are some of the top tips to build an audience online in 2020.
If you know who you’re trying to speak to, a targeted advert is a simple way in which to get placed in front of the very consumers you think will enjoy your website. If you’re a business, this is your ideal customer: the one that’s out likely to shop on your website. If you’re sharing a personal blog, this is anyone you think would find your writing and pictures interesting.
The key to targeting adverts successfully is to ensure there’s a return on your investment. Be careful to target adverts on a trial-and-error basis, checking what works, and A/B testing, to get your balance of investment and return just right. This is an ongoing process, but it’s sure to attract more web users to your website.
Meanwhile, your SEO is another important on-ramp to your website – be that a blog, a portfolio, a directory or a business site. SEO is simply ranking what consumers write into Google’s search bar. Your business will finish on the first page of search results, for given search terms, if you’ve curated your website right and produced a savvy and sound SEO strategy.
It’s often worth talking to SEO agencies in order to help you build out your SEO strategy, as these can require a diverse set of skills that you may not be in full possession of. Meanwhile, to reach new audiences, you should perform SEO boosts in languages other than English. Spanish is the best bet for Americans – with millions of search terms typed in the language every hour.
If you’re running a personal website, nothing can be more important than your social media pages. These are your public-facing profiles – ones that you’re able to share with the wider world to boost traffic to your site and encourage friends, relatives and contacts to explore your content.
For businesses, social media is equally as important. It’s your chance to be a little more casual and conversational with your followers and customers, bringing a little youthful vigor to your interactions. Of course, you’ll need to link heavily to your website to drive traffic from the likes of Facebook and Instagram onto your company site. Use YouTube and up-and-coming Tiktok to boost your performance on these important social media channels.
These three methods are how millions of website owners are boosting their traffic and getting more hits on their pages in 2020. | 241 | 24 | 76 | 1 | 2 | [

train_242 | completed | 6f4ed689-35f0-4ef7-9091-14fc3ed7539c | Advance Diversity Services (ADS) is partnering with the University of Wollongong (UOW) to enhance the ability of the settlement and community services sectors to serve the needs of CALD LGBTIQA+ communities.
The joint research project, funded by UOW’s Community Engagement Grants Scheme, aims to understand gaps in the knowledge and skills of diversity service workers when servicing culturally diverse LGBTIQ+ communities in the context of COVID-19.
‘This is a wonderful opportunity to pilot a collaborative approach to understanding the level of LGBTIQA+ acceptance, knowledge and skills of ADS’s service workers,’ said Anthony Scerri, ADS’s Manager for Settlement and Community Services.
‘Once we identify gaps, we can effectively target staff training. Our ultimate aim is to ensure people from CALD LGBTIQ+ communities receive the services they need and feel welcome and included.’
Dr Quah Ee Ling Sharon, Senior Lecturer in Sociology, School of Humanities and Social Inquiry, is leading the research project. Dr Qua is a Singaporean-Chinese queer migrant woman academic whose work draws from decolonial, transnational and intersectional feminist perspectives and centres round community-based research, inequalities and social justice.
She said she was happy to be collaborating with ADS on the project to bring better outcomes for CALD LGBTIQA+ people.
Three innovative projects were chosen for UOW’s 2020 Community Engagement Grants Scheme launched at a virtual celebration on October 22.
Monique Harper-Richardson, Director of Advancement, UOW, and President of the UOW’s USA Foundation, said the quality of this year’s applications for grants was ‘at the highest level’ and all projects funded focused on resilience and recovery for communities affected by COVID-19.
‘These are extraordinary projects and I’m incredibly excited. I also extend my sincere congratulations to the three recipients.’
Special guest at the celebration Dr Belinda Kathlyn Gibbons, Senior Lecturer Faculty of Business, Sydney Business School, UOW, said the grants would help to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals ‘to care for all things and to leave no one behind’.
Mr Scerri said the pandemic had been hard on many in the community and especially marginalised people from diverse backgrounds.
‘This research will help to ensure LGBTIQA+ people from CALD backgrounds receive the best and most appropriate service possible.’

Megan Roup, celebrity trainer and creator of The Sculpt Society launched an in-person four-city tour across the US this fall and we were thrilled to be a part of The Sculpt Society IRL Tour’s SOLD OUT stop in New York City!
The immersive experience included her unparalleled fitness method, special guests, meet + greets, "fireside chats,” retail opportunities, on-site beauty, health and wellness activations, as well as an incredible swag bag for participants to take home, including Jollie’s Nuts and Bolts and Palm print Plush Mats. Our mats were used throughout the killer workout and seeing our product in action was truly an incredible experience. Thank you, Megan -- it was such an honor to have our product alongside your passionate team and witness your workout in person!
Here are our 5 takeaways after experiencing and participating in TSS IRL:
NYC is still NYC!
It’s been a while since we’ve been to New York City and it was so much fun to enjoy the vibrance and beautiful weather. Although some things have changed post-COVID (the crowds are not as large and a lot of stores are closed), you can feel the spirit is still there and people are coming back.
It was so fun to see Hudson yards and the Vessel in person. The Vessel is an interactive artwork imagined by Thomas Heatherwick and Heatherwick Studio comprised of 154 intricately interconnecting flights of stairs -- almost 2,500 individual steps and 80 landings. This sculpture provided the most breathtaking backdrop for the live event. It is such a fun new development with lots of shops and fun restaurants and a straight view of the Hudson River.
The Sculpt Society’s at-home sculpting workout programs are amazing to take and watch! No wonder why they are the #1 Sculpt & Dance Cardio Workout! They are great for anyone with busy schedules, and we love that her classes can be as short as 15 minutes to fit a bit of mindful movement into a busy day!
The energy was so positive and exciting! We were really inspired by the community of people from the TSS team, other vendors and participants, and walked away feeling so full of energy!
We were humbled by the number of people that told us how much they loved their Plush Mats! Of course *we* know they are great, but to see people use it and then immediately fall in love is exciting! THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to say hello & give us such warm feedback.
Thank you again to Megan (and her entire team) and all of the inspiring attendees who made this day so incredible. | 242 | 25 | 92 | 2 | 1 | [

This event is sold out | Is it normal to gain weight at first on keto diet?
The weight gain associated with going out of ketosis (from reintroducing carbohydrates) is a natural and expected consequence.” This means that weight loss is only achieved when you’re actively following the diet, which can be very difficult to do given how restrictive the keto diet is.
Why is my weight loss so slow on keto?
One of the main reasons people don’t lose weight on the ketogenic diet is that they’re consuming too many carbs. To reach the state of ketosis — a metabolic state in which your body burns fat for energy instead of glucose — carbohydrate intake must be drastically reduced.
Does keto diet cause belly fat?
Interestingly, a ketogenic diet is a very effective way to lose belly fat. As shown in the graph above, a ketogenic diet reduced total weight, body fat and abdominal trunk fat much more than a low-fat diet did ( 11 ).
How often should you weigh yourself on keto?
Instead, they recommend stepping on the scales once per week or even less frequently. Our weight fluctuates somewhat from day-to-day, and daily weighing can lead to discouragement and potential diet sabotage if you see a higher number on the scale than you saw the day before.
Can I eat too little on keto?
You may achieve great results within this carb range, as long as you eat unprocessed, real foods. But if you want to get into ketosis — which is essential for a ketogenic diet — then this level of intake may be excessive. Most people will need to go under 50 grams per day to reach ketosis.
How often should I weigh myself on keto?
What is keto whoosh?
Keto dieters say the fat on their body feels jiggly or soft to the touch. The concept of the whoosh effect is if you stay on the diet long enough, your cells start to release all the water and fat they’ve built up. When this process begins, this is called the “whoosh” effect.
Is ketosis the only way to burn fat?
Truth: Being in ketosis is not the same as being able to burn fat. All being ketosis means is that there is a certain level of ketones in your bloodstream, which isn’t a requirement for burning fat for fuel. In fact, being in ketosis is also not a guaranteed path to fat loss.
How much weight I can lose on keto diet?
During the first week of keto, you can lose as much as ten pounds , but most of it will be water weight. Your weight loss will then slow to 1-2 pounds per week, most of which will be fat. You can speed up that fat loss with a combination of fasting, exercise, supplementation, and the eating of pre and pro-biotic based foods.
Will the ketogenic diet really help you lose weight?
There is strong evidence that ketogenic diets are very effective for weight loss (15). They can help you lose fat, preserve muscle mass and improve many markers of disease (7, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19). In fact, many studies have compared the recommended low-fat diet to a ketogenic diet for weight loss.
Why are you gaining weight on keto diet?
Your genetics are working against you.< The keto diet isn’t for everyone.
Is it possible to gain weight on a keto diet?
Key Takeaway: Carb consumption is not essential to maintain or build muscle. As long as you eat the right amount of protein and calories and train correctly, you will gain muscle mass. On the other hand, if you are looking to preserve muscle mass while you lose fat, the ketogenic diet is your best option. | 244 | 41 | 82 | 1 | 2 | [

Lost your password? | What is NPS®?
Before booking a restaurant, planning a trip, buying a fancy new product or registering my dogs at the new groomers, I always consult the internet. Checking online reviews is one of the first steps for most consumers, and studies show that 84% of people trust online reviews as much as recommendations from friends and family.
Since customers are 3X more likely to talk about bad experiences than good, it's essential the negative reviews are dealt with, and the positive reviews are shared. To help, we have NPS®! These trusted reviews include the good as well as the bad, and now, with the help of social media, customers can share recommendations and reviews quickly and easily.
So what does NPS stand for?
NPS stands for Net Promoter Score. The NPS is a metric used to indicate customer satisfaction and loyalty. The higher your NPS, the more loyal your customer base.
How is the NPS calculated?
The NPS is based on one simple question 'How likely is it that you would recommend 'company' to a friend or colleague?'.
This is often asked within a customer feedback survey and is answered on a scale from 0-10.
A company's NPS is the percentage of promoters, MINUS the percentage of detractors. Those that are passive are 'ignored'.
Promoters: those who score between 9-10
Passive: those who score between 7-8
Detractors: those who score between 0-6
If 70% of respondents are promoters, 20% passives and 10% detractors (70%-10%), then your NPS would be 60.
What's a 'good' NPS?
NPSs are measured on a scale from -100 to +100. So, generally speaking, an NPS of 0-50 is considered good, 50-70 is deemed excellent, and 70+ is world-class.
The good news is that clients LOVE their vets, and the average NPS for an iRecall® practice tends to be around the mid 80's - world-class.
Some of the best 'large company' Net Promoter Scores:

What do I use my NPS score for?
The NPS is just a metric but a useful one. It allows you to track trends over time which can be compared across multiple veterinary practice sites. It can help your brand evaluate customer loyalty, and in turn, help you understand the likelihood of them repurchasing or cancelling payment plans.
Making sure you use a review platform will continuously provide insights into your business and your team. Many review platforms have been designed to give practices feedback to help identify their strengths or areas to work on.
Will online reviews impact my veterinary business?
A negative review will make 4 out of 5 people think twice about spending their well-earned money at your practice, which can be a common obstacle when trying to encourage new customers.
On the other hand, positive reviews do quite the opposite. Since 80% of happy customers will provide recommendations, and 70% of consumers are more likely to purchase if a friend talks about it on social media, getting those recommendations online can really make the difference.
Even better, it's proven that a referred customer has a 16% higher lifetime value.
Customer feedback and reviews are essential, and so it's valuable to a company to track its NPS. This metric, combined with reviews, allow a practice or business to pinpoint and showcase their outstanding work whilst managing areas of improvement.
Good reviews encourage new business and are often the first place people look when making a financial decision. Old and bad reviews discourage, so it's vital to ensure good reviews are regular and the bad are dealt with quickly and efficiently.
Google and Facebook are great places to start your online reviews. The first step, make sure you're asking your customers for their feedback!

train_247 | completed | ce247836-9d08-40dd-bb3e-5c7240a75a0a | 3M™ Peltor™ Tactical Earplug Kit
- 5 Comments
- Last updated: 21/09/2018
3M Peltor’s LEP-200 Level Dependant Earplugs are tiny, in-ear buds that will offer up to 16 hours of operation from their internal lithium ion batteries after a 90-minute charge. They come in a pocket-sized case weighing 272 grams including 3xAA batteries to charge the buds wirelessly when they are clipped into place for storage. There are three adjustable volume levels from single short presses of the control button, with longer ones required for turn ON/ OFF. Button controllers either side for comfortable hearing in normal ambient environments and miniature internal electronics wirelessly receive audio signals from the optional neck loop accessory.
This loop hangs under clothes, forming a 50c transmission ‘bubble’ around your head, it plugs into any 3.5mm audio port, so something like a field radio in your pocket can be heard without the hassle of extra wires connected to your ears. This also guards against possible eavesdropping in more clandestine roles. Reusable rubberised UltraFit™ Eartips are supplied in small, medium and large for a versatile fit, with a 32bD SNR reduction rating (SNR Tested in accordance with PPE directive 89/686/EEC). Triple C foam type disposable Eartips offering 36dB are also compatible with yet higher 38dB ‘skull screw’ types available for ultimate sound deadening.
In use, the omni-directional microphones gave great spacial awareness when on a driven boar hunt, where I elected for the foam type tips for most comfort, although my small ear canals did feel a bit weary after three hours. Not everyone’s ears are as small as mine though and that is a serious fact to consider. Radio comms on the optional neck loop were excellent, as nothing interfered with the unrestricted head movement so mandatory for intuitive shooting.
Each single control button is simple to use bare handed or with gloves and perhaps most important, the rounded shape of the external unit never feels weighty or abrasive against your outer ear canal. After two hours, they turn off automatically to save battery life, which to be fair, lasted me all three days of the hunt. Yet, like other Peltor products, they warn you with beeps several times during the final 60 seconds of operation. A lanyard is included to hang them around your neck when not in use as well as detailed instructions of how to insert them correctly for the best protection.
A Low battery tone repeats every five minutes of the last hour before they are going to fade out completely but with a simple clip back into the storage case enabling a recharge, I never actually heard this on my three day trip. They are quite expensive, and I wouldn’t use them for constant rifle shooting, but in wide open spaces, they are ideal for all sorts of hunting scenarios and without any undue interference into normal shooting operations. Plus, you stay in contact with your fellows almost subconsciously. | What is NPS®?
Before booking a restaurant, planning a trip, buying a fancy new product or registering my dogs at the new groomers, I always consult the internet. Checking online reviews is one of the first steps for most consumers, and studies show that 84% of people trust online reviews as much as recommendations from friends and family.
Since customers are 3X more likely to talk about bad experiences than good, it's essential the negative reviews are dealt with, and the positive reviews are shared. To help, we have NPS®! These trusted reviews include the good as well as the bad, and now, with the help of social media, customers can share recommendations and reviews quickly and easily.
So what does NPS stand for?
NPS stands for Net Promoter Score. The NPS is a metric used to indicate customer satisfaction and loyalty. The higher your NPS, the more loyal your customer base.
How is the NPS calculated?
The NPS is based on one simple question 'How likely is it that you would recommend 'company' to a friend or colleague?'.
This is often asked within a customer feedback survey and is answered on a scale from 0-10.
A company's NPS is the percentage of promoters, MINUS the percentage of detractors. Those that are passive are 'ignored'.
Promoters: those who score between 9-10
Passive: those who score between 7-8
Detractors: those who score between 0-6
If 70% of respondents are promoters, 20% passives and 10% detractors (70%-10%), then your NPS would be 60.
What's a 'good' NPS?
NPSs are measured on a scale from -100 to +100. So, generally speaking, an NPS of 0-50 is considered good, 50-70 is deemed excellent, and 70+ is world-class.
The good news is that clients LOVE their vets, and the average NPS for an iRecall® practice tends to be around the mid 80's - world-class.

What do I use my NPS score for?
The NPS is just a metric but a useful one. It allows you to track trends over time which can be compared across multiple veterinary practice sites. It can help your brand evaluate customer loyalty, and in turn, help you understand the likelihood of them repurchasing or cancelling payment plans.
Making sure you use a review platform will continuously provide insights into your business and your team. Many review platforms have been designed to give practices feedback to help identify their strengths or areas to work on.
Will online reviews impact my veterinary business?
A negative review will make 4 out of 5 people think twice about spending their well-earned money at your practice, which can be a common obstacle when trying to encourage new customers.
On the other hand, positive reviews do quite the opposite. Since 80% of happy customers will provide recommendations, and 70% of consumers are more likely to purchase if a friend talks about it on social media, getting those recommendations online can really make the difference.
Even better, it's proven that a referred customer has a 16% higher lifetime value.
Customer feedback and reviews are essential, and so it's valuable to a company to track its NPS. This metric, combined with reviews, allow a practice or business to pinpoint and showcase their outstanding work whilst managing areas of improvement.
Good reviews encourage new business and are often the first place people look when making a financial decision. Old and bad reviews discourage, so it's vital to ensure good reviews are regular and the bad are dealt with quickly and efficiently.
Google and Facebook are great places to start your online reviews. The first step, make sure you're asking your customers for their feedback!
