Scam City: a taxi ride from hell in Mumbai
Conor Woodman is an investigative journalist who visited ten of the world’s cities to expose tourist traps for a new programme Scam City.
For this latest series he discovered a life-threatening game of Russian roulette in New Orleans; experienced a taxi scam in Mumbai; filmed pickpocketers in New York and met gangs in the red light district of Amsterdam.
Mumbai taxi scam
In Mumbai he met a swindler who jumped, uninvited, into his taxi, as seen in the video above. "There were two of us in the taxi, me and the cameraman," Woodman explained, "and he stops and this guy gets in and says “Oh, I’m your travel agent”.
"Except he wasn’t, he was the mastermind of this most elaborate scam. It involved him taking us the wrong way - we were hemmed in by this religious festival and had to pay a bribe – and he took us to the wrong hotel.
"We were essentially kidnapped in broad daylight. I was in that taxi for about two hours, there was no air-con and he kept asking for more money. It was hilarious for a while but then it moved from comedy to horror.
"This guy does this every day, he has an arrangement with a few taxis, they stop and he gets in. It was interesting, speaking to him afterwards, to see how much he really enjoys getting into his character."
Other scams Woodman encountered in India included being persuaded to put in a fake medical insurance claim for money and being confronted by someone impersonating a policeman.
"No-one wants to be in a foreign country when suddenly the police bust in and accuse you of doing all kinds of illegal activities that you didn’t even know were illegal," he said. "We came across this once in Mumbai and another time in Amsterdam."

- December 09, 2016Witam, Wybrałem ten szablon dla własnej domeny oficjalnej. Strona wygląda bardzo dobrze, dużo funkcji, nawet nie wszystkie wykorzystałem. Dużą zaletą strony jest idealnie dobrana kolorystyka - nic nie musiałem zmieniać. Nie jestem programistą, lecz zwykłym laikiem, który samodzielnie próbuje stworzyć swój własny serwis. Od 7 lat pracuję na silnikach Joomli, muszę powiedzieć, że postępy w budowie są bardzo duże. Konkurencja zazdrości mi takiej strony, a klienci chwalą za piękne portfolio. Piękna robota.Helpful Useless

According to a report released by the U.S. Energy Administration and cited by the Solar Industries Association (SEIA), solar energy will play a bigger role in the United States in coming years.
Between now and 2040, most new electric generation capacity will come from natural gas and renewable energy. Roughly half of this renewable energy is expected to come from solar photovoltaic systems. Rhone Resch, President and CEO of SEIA, says the growth in solar energy will also create thousands of American jobs, help to boost the economy, and greatly reduce pollution. Additionally, an expansion in solar energy will provide individuals, organizations, and companies with better choices when it comes to power.
According to Resch, 60 percent of new PV installations in coming years will be rooftop solar. However, Resch worries that this growth could be be compromised by fossil fuel interests. In response, the SEIA is urging Congress to adopt “commence construction” standard this year. This would allow project developers to take advantage of the solar investment tax credit (ITC). The SEIA also reported that applying the “commence construction” standard across the renewable energy sector would drive the installation of an additional 4 GW of solar capacity in 2017 and 2018.

One hundred fifty years ago, William Winter, poet and theater critic, turned his attention to a less exalted subject: typesetting machines. In what begins as a gadget roundup of sorts, or as he called it, "a half-hour's gossip concerning Types, Type-Setting, and the machinery connected with Printing at the present time," Winter manages to lay out several cases for the righteousness of automation. And his language is strikingly similar to what we hear today about robots.
In a May 1864 article for this magazine, Winter foresaw what has largely been true: human labor would become auxiliary as machines—and later computers and robots—made the use of our muscle power, at the very least, unnecessary.
"Any sketch of the invention, manufacture, and use of types would illustrate the triumph of the labor-saving instinct in man, and thus confirm the scientific lesson of to-day—that machinery must entirely supersede the necessarily slow processes of labor by hand," he begins. "That it will at no distant day supersede those processes in the art of printing is, as you will presently see, a fixed fact."
Hand setting type was difficult. Each letter had to be selected and laid out. This operation required so much dexterity that many people—called compositors— got really good at it. And they would compete against each other, a story told in Walker Rumble's The Swifts: Printers in the Age of Typesetter Races.
"The Swifts constituted a particular segment of Cobb's late-nineteenth century compositors, men who became famous by winning typesetting races," Rumble writes. "Along with their cash prizes and their fame, the brash independence of those fast typesetters impressed others of their trade, and by the 1880s fellow printers acclaimed them as working-class heroes."
Unfortunately for them, the forces that Winter saw at work in 1864 would wipe out the trade—and the races—after Ottmar Mergenthaler created the the Linotype machine in 1884.
And, though Winter was writing long before that machine's debut, he supported the idea of getting rid of human labor, especially in the work of "Composition."
"It is only of late that machinery has been successfully employed in the most laborious and expensive process connected with the art of printing, —that, namely, of Composition," he wrote. "In this process, however, iron fingers have proved so much better than fingers of flesh, that it is perfectly safe to predict the speedy discontinuance, by all sensible printers, of composition by hand."
It may have taken 25 years for that to happen, but Winter was correct. And, he argued, it would actually be better for the men who worked in printing.
"The composing-room of a large daily paper, for instance, presents, day and night, a spectacle of the almost ceaseless industry of jaded operatives. The need of relief in this respect was long ago recognized," he wrote.
And so, what they needed was to be liberated from the drudgery of their gainful employment. Then, because of the cost reductions that would come from the automation, the market for papers would expand.
They are frequently badly lighted and worse ventilated rooms, wherein workmen elbow each other hand. To diminish the cost of any article produced—which is the almost immediate result of substituting machinery for hand-labor—is to expand the market for that article.
Furthermore, Winter argued, people would always be needed to tend the machines, so capital could not completely replace labor.
The Sewing Machine has not injured the seamstress. The Power-Press has not injured hte.
And on top of all that, the machines would also provide a moral example to the worker by the regular workings of their machinery. The workers would become more like the machines, and that would be a good thing.
"There is a moral instructor ever at work in the mazes of ingenious and highly-wrought machinery," Winter said. "Those philosophers are not far wrong, if at all, who assert that the rectitude of the human race has gained strength, as by a tonic, from the contemplation of the severe, arrowy railroad,—iron emblem of punctuality, directness, and despatch."
The workers did lose their jobs, and I'm not sure the proliferation of machines has done much to improve the aggregate morality of the world. But one part of his argument is incontrovertibly true: It would not be a good thing for the spread of information to set all type by hand. The compositors were displaced, but new jobs took their places, and the printing industry continued to grow.
Will the same hold true for today's industries as we see increasingly intelligent robots?
Gosh, let's hope so because companies—as enamored as Winter was of "substituting machinery for hand-labor"—are going to deploy them.

The Real Problem with MTV's Loosely Exactly Nicole Cancellation
Comedienne Nicole Byer isn’t in a joking mood. Her show has been cancelled.
The reality of having a TV show past the development stage means there is always the possibility of cancellation. Always. But MTV’s decision to rid itself of freshman series “Loosely Exactly Nicole” (LEN) in early February has far more serious repercussions for Women of Color than the network may realize.
As a fan of the show myself, I’m not laughing either.
Aside from the success of ABC’s Blackish & Fresh Off The Boat and Netflix’s Chewing Gum & One Day at a Time, there aren’t many comedy series that showcase women as main characters at the forefront in TV today. Tracy Ellis Ross, Constance Wu, Michaela Coel and Justina Machado are exceptions to the leading lady rule because their shows are flourishing.
Why didn’t LEN have the same fighting chance?Truthfully, the only possible explanation is that audiences didn’t know LEN existed at all.
Advertising for episodes was sparse across the board and even prompted a change in air dates, moving the show from Mondays to Fridays where programs go to fade away silently. But throughout the short-lived series, Nicole’s character was quite layered for the niche genre. She had a love interest, core friendships, a semi-professional career. Her wardrobe reflected that heavy set Women of Color can wear more than moo moos and look amazing. Simply put, LEN was a vibrant example of how to debunk TV stereotypes about what female comedic characters are capable of.
Variety reported that MTV’s recent acquisition by cable group giant Viacom (VH1, Logo) in October, was the catalyst that prompted the split with the half-hour comedy series set around Nicole Byer's (MTV Girl Code) real life, hilariously struggling to find success as an actress in Hollywood.
A deeper look into the ratings shed light on just how much MTV failed LEN. Sources revealed that “overall the season earned an average rating of 0.9 in the 18-49 demo and only 198,000 viewers.” Barely a blip on the scale of dedicated viewership where other MTV series like Teen Mom and Catfish pull in infinitely larger numbers.
VH1 President Chris McCarthy, who now handles MTV’s lineup said this about Viacom’s new direction in the future. “The big theme is really for MTV to run back into youth culture — where we really made our mark.”
I can understand putting the music back into Music Television but the damage has already been done for Women of Color. The real problem with MTV canceling LEN is there will be no more representation for Women of Color comediennes on the network any longer. Erasing representation means viewers who might have been inspired to follow their passion for comedy after seeing the show, will never have that chance.
So as I bitterly binge reruns, I’ll remember this cancellation is evidence that the strive for a more diverse narrative for Women of Color on TV is still a steep, uphill battle.
RIP Loosely Exactly Nicole, you will be missed.

“I enjoyed the precision, the lighting, it’s beautiful.”
“I thought it was wonderful. One of the things I appreciated was how specific they were, their precision, timing. Because of the large audience, they used a lot of physicality to present certain emotions.”
“I could see [the emotion] on their faces, but also just physically they were presenting everything through their body. That’s a hard thing to teach young people … To use your body to express certain emotions—it was great.”

Brigitte Nielsen, the 54-year-old actress and model, revealed that she has given birth to another child, a daughter.
The Danish actress, who appeared in a number of action films in the 1980s, welcomed her newborn daughter, named Frida, on Friday, according to People magazine. The girl weighed 5 pounds and 9 ounces.
“We are overjoyed to welcome our beautiful daughter into our lives,” Nielsen and husband Mattia Dessi, who’ve been married since 2006, stated to People magazine in confirming the birth of the girl.
“It’s been a long road, and so worth it. We’ve never been more in love,” she added.
Frida will join four brothers, who range in age from 23 to 34.
In May, Nielsen said that she was expecting a child, captioning a photo with “family getting larger.”
“I would love to because of all the things I have learned. It would be like starting all over again. But am I too old? I’m young at heart and I would be different this time ’round,” she said, ABC News reported. “Mattia and I have discussed it, but I don’t know how likely it is. And to interfere with things just because I feel as if I could give more to a child than I did when I was 20—is that too selfish? I don’t know.”
The actress is best known for a string of roles in 1980s action movies like “Rocky IV,” “Cobra,” “Beverly Hills Cop II,” and “Red Sonja.” She was briefly married to Sylvester Stallone from 1985 until 1987.
Nielsen previously said that she wanted more children, but she felt conflicted due to her age.
While she got a number of congratulations from many of her 103,000 followers on Instagram in May, some criticized the move to have a child in her 50s.
One individual called her “selfish,” while another wrote that having a child at her age is “cruel.”
“Beautiful! This baby will be so loved! Ah, these negative comments. Some know nothing but hate. Really,” one person wrote, according to The Independent. “You give inspiration for me and my husband to be able to have a child at my age of 45. Because we want our family to grow,” another woman commented. “Lots of love and a beautiful safe delivery.”
Among women over the age of 40, in the United States, the birthrate increased by 4 percent in 2017, reports have noted.
“This would have been unimaginable 10 years ago,” Dr. Norbert Gleicher, the medical director and chief scientist at the Center for Human Reproduction, told ABC News about women over 40 giving birth. “The trend toward having children at older ages is growing year by year. And we are learning better ways to treat older women.”
Recent medical advances have made this possible, he said.
“They need to be screened carefully, but with proper screening the outcome stats are surprisingly good,” Gleicher added. “All the published data suggest that with the appropriate screening having babies in the fifties is perfectly manageable.”

Do you worry cellulite is in your genes and in your future? Or have you tried every cream on the shelf and just aren’t satisfied? Cellulite expert and author of ‘The Cellulite Cure,’ Dr. Lionel Bissoon, shares tips to prevent and treat those unwanted lumps and bumps.
Transcript:
Epoch Times: Cellulite affects about 90 percent of women in the developed world, and about 10 percent of men. And the look of lumpy, dimpled thighs really bothers many of us. The good news is that cellulite won’t hurt you and there are ways you can prevent it.
My guest today is Dr. Lionel Bissoon, an osteopath and author of the book, ‘The Cellulite Cure’ and he’s going to tell us what we can do to prevent it. Thank you so much for being here.
Dr. Bissoon: Thank you for inviting me.
Epoch Times: How can we tell if we have cellulite?
Dr. Bissoon: Cellulite comes in 4 Grades: 0, 1, 2, and 3. So most women when they look at themselves they just assume, “Oh I have the worst cellulite.” So it’s important to understand how you examine yourself makes a difference.
So Grade 0 cellulite is basically none—zero cellulite.
Grade 1 is if you look at yourself in the mirror you see no cellulite, but if you pinch your skin and you see a cottage cheese appearance, that is a Grade 1.
If you stand in front of a mirror and you look straight at the mirror. Most women tend to twist, turn and bend by definition you have to look straight, you have to move your head up and down. And if you see cellulite, then that’s Grade 2.
If you lie down and you see cellulite, that’s a Grade 3. Grade 3 cellulite is the worst possible cellulite and thus very, very difficult to treat.
Most women if they can see cellulite is pretty much in Grade 2, so we should limit the discussions to Grade 2. Grade 2 we could divide it into more mild, moderate, or severe so, if you start seeing around the knees, a little on the hips, or a little around the buttocks then you need to say “Hey what can I do to prevent this from getting worse?”
Epoch Times: So if you see it when you’re standing, that’s the time to take action.
Dr. Bissoon: That’s the time to take action, yeah.
Epoch Times: You found that diet plays a big role, can you explain?
Dr. Bissoon: So diet is important, …I looked at the women in the jungles of Peru and they didn’t have any cellulite so I figured what are these women doing different from the women of New York, San Francisco, or Chicago?
They were eating natural foods. Their food came from the ground, every day they had fresh fruit, they had fresh vegetables, they caught their fish the same day, the animals that they ate was all fresh. Nothing was packaged, nothing was store-bought and everything was as natural as possible. So when I educate women here in the U.S. about cellulite, I encourage them to eat organic foods. Really there is not a lot of prevention and it’s one of the simplest things one could do, is start with eating natural, organically grown foods.
Epoch Times: And what about exercise?
Dr. Bissoon: So that’s really more for myth than anything else…Thin women do have the worse cellulite. And a lot thin women do exercise they do diet, and their cellulite will actually sometimes get worse. And I’ve seen athletic trainers and I’ve seen fitness models who have cellulite and they are very, very thin.
Exercise for cellulite, may make .…the front of the legs look great, but it’s not going to help the back of the legs and the buttocks because there is really not any exercises available for the hamstring muscle group for cellulite.
So it’s very, very difficult to get rid of cellulite with exercise. Unless you basically starve yourself. It is very, very hard.
Epoch Times: And what about the different creams that are available?
Dr. Bissoon: The problem in most of the creams is that they don’t penetrate the skin. So most creams have caffeine and a vitamin called niacin. Both of these together will make the skin look red [due] to increase blood-flow, so when you see the redness, it also makes a tingling feeling you think it’s working.
Some of these creams have carnitine, which supposedly helps you break down fat. Carnitine is one of the most abundant amino acids in the body and one doesn’t really need it.
But the big problems with these creams is that you kind of feel that you’re getting the results, but you’re not actually getting results because the creams do not penetrate the skin. If they were to penetrate the skin, then they would maybe become a drug. … Also massaging your legs helps the cream, so between the redness, the tingling and massaging your legs you’re stimulating some blood-flow so you really could see some improvement, but typically I have not seen a woman with a Grade 2 cellulite said, “I’ve used this cellulite cream, and it’s gone.” Most of the people I’ve come to meet have used every possible type of cellulite cream and have not seen any results.
Epoch Times: Now you’ve also found that a certain fashion choices can help prevent cellulite. Can you tell us?
Dr. Bissoon: So women’s underwear [plays] a very important role in cellulite.
So when I first started looking at treating women with cellulite, when I would do the exam, I noticed most women wore traditional bikini style underwear, the elastic went across the buttocks what we call the panty-line. And exactly underneath the panty-line where we would find dimples. So when we find dimples on a woman’s buttocks, they are exactly underneath the panty-line. So if you could take a picture of the panty-line, and draw and imaginary line on that picture, you would see the dimples fall exactly on the elastic compression. So on the panties, the elastic in the panties, compress the microcirculation of the skin in the buttocks, and so causing the dimples. Also for the inner-thighs some women complain, “Gee, my inner-thigh feels soft, it feels squishy, it feels flabby, so the lymphatic system is being compressed across the groin. And [many] women … sleep with underwear at night. So sleeping with elastic underwear at night is the wrong thing to do because when you sleep at night, 50 percent of the lymphatic drainage—which means the fluid from your legs, comes back into your body. And if you have a blockage the fluid will not drain, so the toxins are sitting in your legs causing damage.
So for women changing the style of underwear to a boy shorts, or G-string, or thongs, or even regular underwear without elastic is extremely important for prevention. Also how you sleep, you can sleep with a nighty, you can sleep with shorts, you can sleep with something loose, do not sleep with underwear, is the worst thing.
Epoch Times: Wow, so simple! Who would’ve thought?
Dr. Bissoon: You’d be surprised how many women are shocked and they say, “Nobody told me this,” well it’s in the book. But you know, I can’t reach the world but it’s important that women around the world know there are certain things that you can do to prevent it.
Epoch Times: And hormones also can play a role in causing cellulite. Can you explain that?
Dr. Bissoon: If we look at a normal-weight woman, we see women who have great legs and they hit their late 40s and they never had cellulite, but then they go into menopause in their 49, 50, 51—and they say, “You know, suddenly I woke up one day and I had cellulite.” Well what happens is when women get older, estrogen levels start declining in their 30s and the lower the estrogen declines over decades, the more cellulite you will have.
Estrogen basically maintains the integrity of the skin, the collagen fibers, the circulation and the fat. So if we were to imagine the collagen fibers in women being like this, and then the fat cells are here but as the fibers get weaker, the fat cells can pop out and sort of give you that cellulite appearance.
Now women typically get cellulite mostly around the knees, around the hips, the buttocks and those layers—only in women—there are three layers of fat there. So in men, we have only one layer throughout our bodies and in women there are 3 layers of fat here, here and then the buttocks. So that’s why women tend to get cellulite in those areas. And those areas are dependent on estrogen. So as estrogen goes down, basically cellulite is given room to manifest itself, it shows up.
Epoch Times: Are there any other treatments that can help balance the estrogen levels?
Dr. Bissoon: You could do hormone balancing but if you also eat natural organic foods, you would get phytoestrogens, or natural plant estrogen. I don’t know what’s available in most countries for hormone replacement. But if you take too much estrogen the opposite effect will happen. You’ll gain weight. There has to be …medium. So if you’re going to use hormones, hormones will not reverse the cellulite, but in my experience they’ll keep it from getting worse.
Epoch Times: A lot of women think that liposuction can help cellulite.
Dr. Bissoon: That actually makes it worse. So many women who’ve had cellulite, once the surgeon is doing the liposuction, they can cause indentations in the skin, and we see it all the time, where the skin doesn’t come out as smooth. So the lipo still looks great in clothes, but once you take the clothes off, you could see the ripples in the skin. And we see lots of that for women’s legs, we see it in the buttocks, we see it in the abdomen from bad liposuction.
And even the best surgeons have these outcomes. So there’s not much for science to do this with liposuction. We know it’s great for sculpting and shaping but it’s not approved in any country for treating cellulite.
Epoch Times: You treat cellulite when a woman has it. Can you explain your treatment?
Dr. Bissoon: So we use a process, a French technique called Mesotherapy, which is more of a medical specialty, and I brought it to the United States in 1998-99, and I developed it to treat cellulite. But you can treat many other conditions with it, but I mostly treat cellulite with it.
We inject medicine to break-down the fat, we inject medicine to increase circulation and to stimulate the lymphatic system. We also use a procedure called surgical subcision, so if there are dimples in the buttocks, dimples in the thighs, there’s a procedure.
If you imagine, this is normal skin and this is a dimple, there are collagen fibers pulling the dimple in, so with this subcision we cut these fibers and immediately the dimples are gone. So [what] we use is a tiny needle to cut the fibers. So we do a combination of both procedures to get rid of cellulite.
Epoch Times: So what can a woman expect if she wants to do a course of mesotherapy, how long does it take, and what are the kinds of results?
Dr. Bissoon: Well the good news is that if you have a Grade 0 or Grade 1, then there’s nothing to do. …If one has a= mild Grade 2, treatment of cellulite could be anywhere from 5 or less. Intermediate is 7 or 8, depends on where it’s at. If it’s a moderate Grade 2 it could be 10 treatments, and if it’s a severe Grade 2 it could be up to 15 or 20 treatments.
So the severity dictates how many treatments they have. And also at the same time we educate women about the kind of underwear to wear, about how to sleep, about food and nutrition. We go through the whole process with them. Cellulite consultation with me takes an hour because it’s not just telling you about the treatment, it’s about telling you how to prevent.

Invisalign
It’s safe to say that traditional orthodontics are not particularly flattering to anyone’s appearance. Bulky metal brackets and wires are conspicuous and don’t suit most people’s features. Advances in orthodontic technology have spawned a clear braces system called Invisalign. Dr. Abadan offers Invisalign to San Diego patients at her Carmel Valley practice. She is certified to use the Invisalign system and recommends it to many of her patients who are unhappy with crooked, crowded or unevenly aligned teeth. If you are looking for a discreet way to improve the appearance of your smile, this treatment is likely your best option.
What is Invisalign?
Invisalign is an orthodontic system that uses a sequence of clear plastic aligners to straighten your teeth. The aligners, which resemble tooth whitening trays, are custom-fitted to your mouth and can be removed for eating, drinking and cleaning. There are no metal materials or wires that could cut your gums or cheeks or cause any discomfort.
Aligners put gentle pressure on your teeth to gradually move them into the correct position and alignment. The aligners are swapped out every 2 weeks for the next set in the series until you achieve the straight, even smile that you desire.
How Can it Improve Your Smile (and Oral Health)
Invisalign is designed to correct orthodontic problems such as crookedness, crowding and spacing that can detract from an otherwise beautiful set of teeth. The discreetness of Invisalign allows you to wear your aligners to work or social events without anyone knowing that you’re undergoing orthodontic treatment.
Straight, even teeth are also good for your oral health. They are easier to clean, thus stemming tooth decay and the development and progression of gum disease (which is extremely detrimental to oral and overall health). Straight, properly aligned teeth also promote a healthier bite. An improper bite can cause jaw pain, difficulty speaking or chewing and increased tooth wear and tear. Invisalign successfully addresses these orthodontic issues and improves the beauty of your teeth.
The Treatment Process
Total treatment time varies by patient, but typically takes about 6 months.
Dr. Abadan begins your Invisalign treatment by taking dental X-rays, pictures and impressions; this information is then used to create a digital 3D image of your teeth. Dr. Abadan maps out your Invisalign treatment, beginning with your teeth’s initial position and ending with their final desired position. Dr. Abadan can show you a virtual representation of how Invisalign will shift your teeth during each stage of treatment.
When they are ready, Dr. Abadan will dispense your first set of custom-created aligners. Ideally, you should wear your aligners for 20 to 22 hours per day, removing them only to eat and to brush and floss your teeth. Dr. Abadan will instruct you on how to clean your aligners and keep them in top shape.
You will receive the next set of aligners in your sequence approximately every two weeks. Dr. Abadan will periodically check in with you to monitor your progress. If you have questions at any point of your treatment, Dr. Abadan is only a phone call away.
Benefits of Invisalign
Patients love Invisalign for a number of reasons. Here are some of the benefits:
- Custom-made
- Invisible
- Comfortable fit
- Won’t irritate the gums or cheeks
- No wires or brackets to tighten
- Results you can see
- Minimal impact on everyday life
- No restrictions on diet
- Quick, regular check-ins with Dr. Abadan
- Safe and FDA-approved medical device

Like many marketing consultants, a considerable part of my business in based on my time and using that to support clients.
I wanted to change that and work smarter to monetise my knowledge, skills and expertise in a way that would enable me to reach a wider target audience, enhance my positioning as an international marketing expert, generate new clients and create new revenue streams.
To do this I created and published 10 Kindle ebooks on Amazon in 2013 – each cross-promoting the others. I continue to promote the ebooks and they continue to generate standalone sales as well as leads and sales for coaching and consultancy services.
All 10 ebooks got to the number one download spot for their respective categories and were downloaded in nine countries in total. They resulted in new coaching and consultancy clients and new members for my Grow Your Business club website.
In addition, having documented the process, I now offer a digital profits coaching programme which helps others to showcase their expertise through ebook publishing.

FOR 18 months, Gabrielle and Pat Witter tried for a baby.
And for 18 months, they assumed they just weren’t having any luck.
“Month after month, it started to become excruciating, and we did start asking questions,” Ms Witter, 36, said. “I went to see my GP, and he said that this happens, that it was quite normal for it to take a while.
“But I asked for a referral to go and see a fertility specialist about it, just to rule out any problems.”
They did some tests, which revealed Mr Witter had poor sperm motility.
“They were going around in circles, essentially,” Ms Witter said. “There was a bit of surprise when we found out there was something wrong, but also relief.
“I am just so glad we started asking questions. We could have kept going. It would have been so painful to keep trying. You grow up thinking it is so easy to fall pregnant, then when you get there, it is not always as easy as you think, even without any fertility issues.”
The couple went through IVF through Genea, and they are now parents to Rosie, who is almost two, and five-month-old Grace.
“IVF still seems to be a fairly taboo topic, for some reason,” Ms Witter said.
“We just tried to embrace the positives. You are completely aware of what is happening to your child from the very first stages. We are lucky, because we have had two successful experiences. But I think it’s important for people to know that it’s not such a scary process, and it’s not something they should be ashamed of because it hasn’t happened naturally.”
Fertility specialist Dr Erin Fuller said while the female’s age was the biggest factor in deciding when to seek help, male infertility was a common reason couples might find it difficult to conceive.
“One-in-six Australian couples have trouble conceiving, and about 40 per cent of the time, that will be due to a male factor problem,” she said.
But she said an IVF process called ICSI – Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection – meant men, even those with a very low sperm count, could still father children.
“We only need one sperm per egg to do that,” she said.
“A lot of the time the onus is on the woman to look after her health, but there are basic things men can do to maintain their fertility.”
She advised men to maintain a healthy weight, not smoke, and limit alcohol consumption. Regular ejaculation – or having sex two-to-three times a week – also helped to improve sperm quality.
“Women under 35 who have been trying for a pregnancy for a year should seek help, and anyone over 35 trying for six months should seek help,” she said.

After three reported sexual assaults promoted two public safety notices over the weekend, some students living in a South Campus residence hall where one of the incidents occurred said they still feel safe.
The most recent notice was issued after two sexual assaults were reported off-campus in separate incidents.
A female student reported being assaulted to Ohio State Police on Sunday. She said she had been sexually assaulted around East 12th Avenue and North Pearl Street on Saturday night at about 10 p.m.
She described the suspects as two white men, ages 18-20, standing at about 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing between 200-250 pounds, according to the notice. She also said they were wearing dark shorts and tennis shoes.
In a separate incident, a woman not affiliated with the university reported a possible sexual assault to University Police at about 8:21 p.m. Saturday in the area of East 15th Avenue and North Pearl Street. The suspect was described as a white man, the notice said.
“While these incidents occurred off-campus, they are similar enough in nature that they could present an ongoing threat,” the notice said.
The Columbus Division of Police is investigating both incidents.
An earlier, separate public safety notice was issued Saturday after a female OSU student reported being raped in a South Campus residence hall. In that case, the woman reported the incident to University Police at about 10:20 a.m. Saturday. She said the incident had occurred between 3:20-4:30 a.m. that morning, according to the notice.
The suspect in that case — who was described as a 22 to 23-year-old white man, standing 5-foot-8 and weighing 150 pounds — was invited into the dorm after meeting the woman earlier that evening, the notice said.
There were no additional details, Denton said in an email Saturday night
Some students like Armand Ghazi, a first-year in biomedical engineering and a resident of the residence hall where the rape was reported, said he was stunned to learn of the incident.
“We would never imagine that happening,” he said. “We don’t know what floor it was on, we don’t know any of the story. Like we had no clue.”
Others like David Lopez, a first-year in molecular genetics, said the residence hall could step up its security efforts to make sure everyone who enters the building is accounted for.
“I went home to visit some friends at (the University of Cincinnati). What they do, is every time you have a guest, you have to sign them in and you have to present an ID. And when they leave you have to sign them out. So it’s a little bit obnoxious, but then you know you’re safe at all times, because if they don’t belong there, they can’t get in whatsoever,” he said.
According to OSU’s residential living handbook, residents can have guests in their rooms if they assume responsibility for their guests’ behavior. Guests must wait in residence hall lobbies for their host and may not enter the building unescorted at any time.
Susie Meyer, a second-year in neuroscience, said she still feels safe living in the South Campus residence hall.
“I feel safe living here still because (University Police) got the information out really quickly. It was just kind of scary, because me and my roommate were in our room during that time frame,” she said.
Meyer said she also thinks more victims of sexual assault are coming forward, which is, in turn, helping spread awareness.
“I feel like more people are just coming forward about it. I don’t think the prevalence (of rape) has increased at all. But as more people are making (sexual assault) a bigger issue and less people are scared to come forward about it, I think that everyone is more aware of their options, and if this happens more, people are less scared to come forward now,” she said.
Morgan Phillips, a first-year in mechanical engineering and resident of the same building, said she feels safe as well.
“We have the check-in people, and there’s like two to four people there at all times, and I think they do a pretty good job of watching over who goes in and who goes out,” she said. “And you need a card to get in and people are pretty good about watching that no one goes in behind them.”
Phillips said it’s easy to tell if someone coming in looks like they don’t belong.
“Since there’s always people going in and out, if you see someone suspicious, you can kind of tell right away,” she said..
Public safety notices are issued when crimes occur that are considered to be a concern or a continuing threat to the OSU community.
About two-thirds of rapes are committed by someone known to the victim, according to the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network website.
OSU provides services for victims of sexual assault that include counseling, advocacy, wellness and health services through Student Life.
Ingrid Gardner and Nick Roll contributed to this story.
Usg is doing everything we can to combat this.
Maybe the university police should stop sendind out undercover officers to bust students for drinking alcohol, and maybe start comabting actual violent crime.
So you think both parties were completely sober when these incidents happen?
Dept. of Education recent report said .”
Great job OSU. If you spent more time making campus area safe instead of writing a bogus report about the Marching Band, maybe the campus could be a safe environment.
I thought the firing of Jon Waters was supposed to be the solution to preventing sexual assaults on campus? Not suprised at all little is being done by Ohio State
If you are using this article to bring up the band, you are an enormous dbag and need to rethink your life.

I am no boy would be caught dead reading a book about girl, let alone a princess.
I publish the graphic novel "Real Friends,” an autobiographical story of my elementary school friendships. Book bloggers and online reviewers begin to recommend it but advise against giving it to boys since most of the characters are girls. have published 30 books over the past 15 years, and I have heard all this and much more in every one of the 40-plus states I have toured.
It is clear our culture assumes:
1. Boys are not going to like a book that stars a girl.
2. Men’s stories are universal, while women’s stories are only for girls.
I was then my book won a major award, and.”
For the first time I had evidence that contradicted everything I had been taught about boys and reading. I started to pay more attention and found I did in fact have many boy readers — most likely hundreds of thousands of them at this point, but they had been reading in secret because they were embarrassed. I got better at noticing the myriad ways adults teach boys have now asked thousands of kids the same question: “What kind of books do you like?” They answer: fantasy, funny, comics, mystery, nonfiction, etc. No kid has ever said, “I like books about boys.” And yet booksellers tell does kind of a man does that boy grow up to be?
The bias against boys reading about girls runs so deep, it can feel daunting to try to change it. But change can start with a simple preposition swap: When talking to young readers, we can communicate a book is about girls without prescribing that it is for girls. them. And they have the potential to be lifelong readers of all kinds of books, learning empathy for all kinds of people and gaining all kinds of experiences different from their own. They will be fine. If we adults would just get out of their way.
Shannon Hale is the best-selling author of more than 30 children’s and young adult novels, including “Real Friends” and the "Ever After High,”"Goose Girl,” and "Princess Academy” series.

This gallery features some of the more important books and articles to appear during the early 1920′s. These feature important information about the tile set and/or about the name and dispersion of the game.
This bibliography lists all of the publications of J. P. Babcock's 'Little Red Book'.
This is the 1st edition of Babcock's little red book. Note that the title is different in that it says only "Rules for Mah-Jongg". This is the 1st manual in English.
The little hardcover version of Babcock's manual. This also contains important observations made by Babcock regarding the prevalence of the game in China.
This is an advertisement that appeared in the New York Saturday Evening Post, December 15th, 1923. In it Babcock explains the process by which his Mah-Jongg set was created.
This is the front page of Babcock's Mah-Jongg 1925 patent. Further pages are available upon request.
'Le Domino Chinois' by Paul-M. Dénisse, Saïgon : Albert Portail, 1926. 55 p.
The 1st Edition was pub. in 1922 with 32 p.
The 2nd ed. was pub. in 1924 with updates and the addition of alternative names such as: "Matchang, Mat-giang, Ma-chiong, Mah-jong ou Ma-chank."
These appear in the 3rd Edition also.
In the 1st Edition, 1922, the author called the game "domino chinois" only.
An important book on all aspects of the game. Foster also alludes to Glover's tile set.
This important little book details the author's view on the history and philosophical aspects of the game and the tile set in particular.
Another American Mah-Jongg manual.
Provides a different name for the game plus illustration of the tile set.
Published in the Uk. Spelling of the name associated with the Chinese sinograms similar to Babcock's usage.
This rather rare manual gives a brief overview of the author's view on the history of the game.
Another early manual, the third written in English.
The second manual written in English. The author's actual name is Harold Carey.
This informative article outlines the process of Mah Jong set manufacture in China in 1924. It also explains this manufacture in the context of the Chinese economy of the time.
This pamphlet from the Mei Ren Company uses a long article by J. B. Powell reprinted from the Shanghai 'China Weekly Review'' June 20th, 1923. Profusely illustrated with pictures taken at the Mei Ren factory, showing labourers, tools and the general Mah Jongg manufacturing process. A useful document on the social conditions inside a large Mahjongg factory.
This is a photocopy of the front page of 'The Chinese Economic Monthly' January 1924, that contains an article that briefly discusses the historical origins of Mahjongg. It also gives and in- depth economic analysis of the monetary input into the local economy as well as a very good description of the manufacturing process and how this impacts on the economic viability of Mahjongg manufacture.

Allen's pick of the week is Tsukigakirei, a short and presumably sweet love story with maybe too many coincidental barriers of love. Or something like that. He was entertained, but not notably impressed with it.
With my pick of the week, Hinako Note, I was neither entertained nor impressed. Thanks to shows like Is the Order a Rabbit?! or even Encouragement of Climb, MOE or pseudo-MOE shows now have a measuring stick they'd have to live up to, and Hinako Note doesn't quite deliver there.
Well, summer is nearing its end, and we all have to prepare to get back into the swing of things again. See you next week.

Dallas, who makes a return after a long hiatus, takes care of the hasslin' part with 91 Days, a mob drama he rather enjoyed. The nice part is that it's a mafia drama set in America, and it's seemingly well-researched. Or at least well-written.
Allen steps up on the Wrasslin' side with Tiger Mask W, a show about wrestlers, so you don't get any more literal than that, I guess. He wasn't nearly as impressed with it as Dallas was with his show, but he had fun. And sometimes, when you just want to relax and have fun, you don't want for more.
So twice as much fun this week. Next week, we'll be back once again. Stay with us.
Nicoletta filling in for Stig again, and I've got my first new review in almost a year! It's for New Game!, which is a pretty great show about a bunch of young women working in a gaming company (totally up my alley) with pretty strong yuri overtones (also absolutely up my alley). It just got a sequel this year, so expect a review of that in the near future, too!
Allen didn't get as lucky; he follows up his review of I've Always Liked You with The Moment You Fall in Love...and apparently, he didn't really fall in love with either of the leads. Or like them at all, for that matter. What a bummer.
We'll be back next week with more from Allen and more from somebody else we haven't heard from in quite a while!
-Nicoletta Christina Browne
Hey all, Nicoletta here filling in for Stig, and hey, it's been a long time since I've done any updates? Hehehe....yeah, a lot happened in real life and I'd semi-retired for a bit. But I'm getting back in the game, both with some new reviews (one of which we'll have next week!) and some retakes on old reviews, since a lot of them need a makeover ^^;
Two of my older reviews, Wandering Son and The World is Still Beautiful got a bit of a makeover, and changed star ratings: one up for Wandering Son, one down for The World is Still Beautiful, sadly.
I'm much, much happier with this version of the Wandering Son review, myself!
And Allen, ever the workhorse, brings us a review of Kado: The Right Answer, which he says is a good watch for sci-fi fans (props to Allen, he again found a cool show I'd never heard of!!)
That's it for this week, but next week I bring you love and peace....and some fun and games, or maybe not much actual game-playing if you look closely. Stay tuned!
Last week, I told y'all that I'd like to put up a review for the latest season of one of my personal favorites, and that is just what I'm going to do. This is Natsume's Book of Friends season 6. Season 6! Can you believe it? Well, you better believe that this show is still going strong, and if you don't, head right in and have a read. Then again, if you're with us all up to season 6, it's highly probable that you are well and truly settled in this ship.
Next week, our lovable workaholic has something for you again, because if we have a staff member that can put the Duracell rabbit in its place, Allen would be it.
...that is, if someone can do the update in my place, because I'm going on vacation next week. So if not, it'll be two weeks. See you all later either way.

The Conference Board, a global economic analytics firm that tries to look ahead, has just issued an “all clear, full speed ahead” signal for the U.S. economy. Its three primary indicators — the leading, the coincident, and the lagging — were all up in October, following gains in previous months. Exclaimed Ataman Ozyildirim, director of research, “The U.S. LEI [Leading Economic Index] increased sharply in October, as the impact of the hurricanes dissipated. The growth of the LEI, coupled with widespread strengths among its components, suggests that solid growth in the U.S. economy will continue through the holiday season and into the New Year.”
What’s most surprising is that every one of the 10 components of the LEI were up in October. There wasn’t a single warning signal from any of them:
Average weekly hours, manufacturing
Average weekly initial claims for unemployment insurance
Manufacturers’ new orders, consumer goods and materials
ISM® [Institute for Supply Management] Index of New Orders
Manufacturers’ new orders, nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft orders
Building permits, new private housing unitsStock prices, 500 common stocks
Leading Credit Index™
Interest rate spread, 10-year Treasury bonds less federal funds
Average consumer expectations for business conditions
Think of the LEI as looking out the front windshield of your vehicle, while the coincident indicator (CEI) is looking out the side windows with the lagging economic index (LAG) looking out the back window through the rear-view mirror. It’s all clear all around: The road ahead is clear, smooth and dry, the sky is blue, the temperatures are in the 70s, there are no speed traps, no speed bumps, and no flashing red lights from emergency or police vehicles coming up behind. It’s “pedal to the metal!”
The report confirms that the conditions noted by The New American three weeks ago remain in place:
• GDP just put in its best six-month performance in the last three years;
• Spending on mining, oil, and gas exploration and new well development quickly overcame the temporary halts due to Hurricanes Harvey and Irma;
• Investor sentiment continues to trade higher;
• Consumer sentiment just hit a 13-year high;
• Consumer outlook was at its highest level since January, 2005;
• Business inventory growth reflects expectations for a holiday season smash;
• The Dow Jones Industrial Average topped 4.2 percent;
• 631,000 more people are now working who weren’t working in January;
• More than 154 million Americans are working, with new records being set nearly every month;
• The Small Business Optimism Index of the NFIB (National Federation of Independent Business) just touched the highest level since 2006; and
• The Dow Jones Industrial Average tacked on another 175 points so far in November, bringing the total advance to more than 3,500 points since New Year’s Day.
Add to that the Economic Surprise Index published by CitiGroup — a measure of how the economy is faring compared to expectations (any number above zero is a positive) — which just touched 40, and it’s smooth sailing for as far as the eye (and the economists) can see.
Nothing grows to the sky, not even the newly rejuvenated and oxygenated U.S. economy, but when history is written, this explosion of enthusiasm and economic growth and optimism will be one for the record Continues to Surprise to the Upside

Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh stated that the BJP had always believed in politics of revenge and making baseless and false charges. Singh, while addressing party workers and crowd gathered to witness the occasion of foundation stone laying ceremony of ambitious project of channelization of all streams of Swan River, accused BJP for framing him in false cases.
Virbhadra Singh claimed that frivolous cases were framed twice against him during BJP regime in which he came out clean. He said BJP leaders were raising questions on loan taken by his family which was ridiculous as he had not hided any thing and it was right of any body to take loan.
On the contrary, opposition BJP has accused Singh for hiding facts and also objected calling Dhumal and his son any ‘Tom, Dick and Harry’ ‘Aira Gaira Nathu Khera’ which he had commented yesterday at Shimla, after CPS oath ceremony.
BJP state president Satpal Singh Satti and party spokesperson Ganesh Dutt has strongly objected the language used by the Chief minister and termed it unwanted and politically motivated. He asked Singh to clarify the whole episode to the people of the state.

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh today laid the foundation stone of the Rs 84.58-crore Lift Water supply scheme from Sainj Nallah to Village Gharog in Shimla district, 30 km from here today.

Addressing a rally at Dhami in his assembly constituency, Chief Minister said that although Shimla Rural constituency was situated nearer to the State Capital, but still it lacks several developmental infrastructures. He said that the State Government was committed to develop this constituency as a model constituency in matter of development. He said that the Government was also ensuring that all the constituencies would be given equal priority in matter of development irrespective of political considerations.
In his address he also detailed out his budget presented only day before in Vidhan Sabha. He blamed previous BJP led Govt for financial mess and under estimating the committed liabilities of the State by the 13th Finance Commission.
He said that even then he had presented a tax-free and growth oriented Budget for the year 2014-15. He said that the BJP Government opened colleges without any financial provision during the fag end of its tenure, but the present State Government during its present tenure has announced opening of 12 colleges, out of which 9 colleges have already been notified. He said that provision of Rs. 5 crore each has been made for creating necessary infrastructure for these colleges.
Singh said an outlay of Rs 2,384 crore had been proposed for the Public Works department, which was nearly Rs 100 crore more than the current year’s allocation of Rs 2,291 crore. The budget for education has also been hiked to Rs 4,282 crore as compared to Rs 3,836 crore of current financial year, CM added.

He said it had been purposed in the Budget that any new industry employing more than 300 Himachalis would be charged only 2 per cent electricity duty for five years. Besides existing small industry would have to pay electricity duty at a reduced rate of 7 per cent and new unit to pay only 2 per cent for five years, he added.
Irrigation and Public Health Minister Vidya Stokes, Deputy Commissioner Shimla Dinesh Malhotra, SP Shimla Shimla Abhishek Dullar, Engineering-in-Chief IPH R.K. Sharma, Director Higher Education Shashi Bhushan Shakri and other prominent people of the area were present on the occasion.

A deadly ammonia leak in Fernie turned into a sobering lesson for budding refrigeration mechanics at Okanagan College Wednesday.
Ray Koepke, an instructor with Okanagan College’s refrigeration and air conditioning mechanic pre-apprenticeship program in Penticton, one of three in the province, said his class had only gone over safety with ammonia refrigeration plants a couple of weeks ago.
“That’s one of the particular requirements for this class,” he said. “We’re very much aware of what safety precautions are in place, and what you can and can’t do.”
With what’s called a Class-T machinery room, Koepke said there is no shortage of safety regulations that should bar a tragedies like Tuesday’s deadly leak in Fernie from occurring.
For instance, anyone who enters the room must have a refrigeration certificate, the mechanical room must have panic doors that open to the outside, a leak detection system needs to be in place with an audio alarm and visual meter on the outside to show the level of ammonia in the room. Anything above 25 parts per million is deemed unsafe, Koepke said.
But in Tuesday’s tragic incident, three people were killed by an ammonia leak, including two city workers and one out-of-town contractor, and a neighbourhood was evacuated.
In a news conference Thursday, officials indicated the alarm went off at 4 a.m., and the building was closed for repairs. But between then and 1 p.m., “something went terribly wrong” and a medical emergency was called in.
“To take three people out in such short notice like that, they would have gone in there working on something, they probably didn’t have safety gear on — and not required to, if there’s no danger — but something happened that created an immediate danger, and these guys were in the middle of it,” Koepke said.
“Not saying that they would have done something wrong. It’s just that they happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. It’s not like these things go all the time, either. It’s got to be of some freaking thing that happened, some equipment failure, some device failure. Something happened that’s outside the normal realm of expectation for the piece of equipment.”
One of Koepke’s students works on ammonia at the Summerland Packing House, which brought the issue ever closer to home for the class.
“Everybody’s concerned about what happened,” Koepke said. “We like our people in Canada; we like to keep them. So we don’t send them into places where it’s not safe.”

An Iranian-American merchant in Dixon, reacting to news reports that his native country’s Islamic regime on Tuesday promised to crack down on the nation’s largest protests since 2009, said protestors are waging a battle against “the system.”
Briefly recapping Iran’s modern history, Hansen Sheykhani, 66, said that after the overthrow of the shah in 1979, at the outset of the Islamic Revolution, the militants taking over the government “destroyed the industries,” leaving the country in economic shambles that continue to this day.
That has prompted protests in virtually every corner of the Shiite Muslim theocratic republic of 82 million people, the vast majority of them under 30.
Worse, he added, Iran’s aging leaders, with Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as the supreme leader, have spent billions of dollars in recent years and months on wars or military adventures in Syria, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Iraq, Palestine and the Gaza Strip, without repairing a battered economy.
Sheykhani — a writer and author who has long kept tabs on Iranian political and cultural affairs since arriving in the United States and gaining citizenship — said the country has struggled with high unemployment and, in recent days, rampant inflation, the latter a touchstone for the latest unrest that has roiled rural areas, not cities, as centers of deep political discontent. The six days of violence have left more than 20 people dead, including an Iranian police officer, and hundreds under arrest, some of them possibly facing the death penalty.
“You’ve got millions of young people with college degrees and no jobs,” said Sheykhani, a native of Lahijan, in northern Iran. “They cannot establish a family life.”
He drew contrasts between today’s leaderless protestors and those who took to the streets of Tehran, Iran’s capital of nearly 9 million, in 2009, when the educated elite, middle class, and university students railed against the election of president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who defeated former prime minister Hussein Moussavi, and claimed the vote count was fraudulent.
“But now this is the voice of the (working poor) people,” said Sheykhani, who earned a master’s degree in Persian literature and language. “They don’t want the Islamic government anymore. That’s their target — the system, the regime.”
“This is the revolution of the hungry,” he added, noting that 60 percent of the people live below the poverty line in “the second richest country in the Middle East, after Saudi Arabia.”
“All this money is being spent on wars,” Sheykhani asserted.
He also lamented that Iran has no independent newspapers and that its leaders had blocked some social media websites, such as the messaging app Telegram and Instagram, in an effort to stymie angry protests across the nation, including in cities such as Mashhad, Karaj and Zanjan, where a crowd tore down a portrait of Khamenei, a serious crime in Iran.
The crowds spilling into the streets “are asking for a new constitution, a secular constitution,” Sheykhani said. “They’re jobless and hungry, they have nothing to lose.”
Additionally, he asserted the people are furious that Iran’s leaders had somehow, over the years, squandered nearly $1 trillion, all of it basically unaccounted for.
“What happened?” he asked rhetorically, adding that corruption is rampant. “They’re fighting against the corruption.”
Protestors also are livid at President Hassan Rouhani, an educated moderate cleric, who won re-election in May on promises to revitalize the economy, something that, by all accounts, has not happened.
No surprise, but rich and powerful Iranian clerics, specifically Khamenei, are blaming “the enemies of Iran” for the current unrest. But Sheykhani assailed that as excuse-making when there is no real evidence of the United States, other Arab nations or Western powers meddling in Iran’s internal affairs.
“Whatever happens, they always have an excuse” and ignore the realities of people’s daily lives, he said of the powerful Muslim clerics.
“They are workers,” Sheykhani said of some of the protestors, some of whom are in their 70s and 80s. “There’s no more bread and the price of everything is up. They have nothing in Iran.”
To him, the latest protests, which have included chants for the ayatollah’s ouster, are not pointless exercises in futility, given the Iranian state’s huge apparatus to crush even the slightest signs of dissent, from riot police and the Revolutionary Guard to the military and the government-controlled judiciary.
“This is a very serious movement,” Sheykhani said. “They’ve targeted the system. Never in 40 years (since the Islamic Revolution) has anyone shot and killed a police officer.”
Clearly, he added, the protestors — many of them old and young women — are willing to put their lives on the line and possibly face the death penalty for their political activities. If an Iranian citizen is charged with Moharebeh, or waging war against God, then tried and convicted, they can face capital punishment.
“This is the revolution of the shoeless and hungry,” said Sheykhani, noting that the price of bread doubled in the past week.
He suggested that if the Iranian government continued to kill its own citizens in the coming days and weeks, then it may warrant them to overthrow the country’s leaders.

CARACAS, Aug 9: Only 13.2 percent of the world’s ocean waters are still in their natural ‘wild’ state and remain unspoiled by human activity, according to a new report.
Kendall Jones, author of the report published in science journal Current Biology said: “We were very surprised by how little is left of marine nature. The ocean is immense and covers more than 70 percent of our planet, but we have managed to significantly affect almost all of this vast ecosystem.”
Researchers from Australia’s Queensland University systematically mapped the effect of 15 different human ‘stressors’ on the ocean using global available data, including commercial shipments, fertilizers and sediment run-offs, demersal fishing and other kinds of pollution.
Mapping all these factors and calculating their accumulative impact showed that only about 55 million square kilometers of ocean have been little affected by human activity with less than 10 percent impact.
The report, entitled ‘The Location and Protection Status of Earth’s Diminishing Marine Wilderness,’ shows that unspoiled ocean zones are “unequally distributed” among the 16 different oceanic regions, located mainly in remote zones of the Pacific Ocean, the Arctic and Antarctica.

When French capital is well known for its fine wines, brandy and more recently its beer – but if you keep your ear to the ground and your eyes peeled, then you can experience unique cocktails and mixes in one of the many relatively unknown “secret” bars dotted around the capital. The concept has proven immensely popular with those “in-the-know” and well informed visitors craving a decent cocktail away from the tourist trail – often with the added bonus of classy dress codes, live jazz and dazzling décor.
So check over your shoulder, lean in closer and listen (or read) carefully to our top 5 speak-easy bars in Paris… But remember, it’s a secret!
Mabel
Nearest serviced apartment? Psst… It’s here
Don’t worry – although the advertisements all point to this place being a grilled cheese cafe (grab one, they are delicious), you’ll have to slink your way into the back room to find its relaxed and pretence-free speakeasy bar.
The drinks on offer seem to be limitless and are overflowing with unique flavours, and if its secret location wasn’t enough, then the air of mystery will certainly raise your eyebrows when glancing through the cocktail menu as offbeat ingredients like geranium cordial, togarashi (a mix of seven different Japanese spices) and grape molasses spice up the presented mixes.
Blaine
Nearest serviced apartment? Psst… It’s here
Within a stone’s throw of the Eiffel Tower, this speakeasy-style bar will not only entice you with fine drinks and stunning surroundings, but it also perfectly captures the feeling of a bar within 1920s Chicago, when Prohibition was in full swing! Hidden behind a large black door, Blaine is located at the bottom of what appears to be a disused staircase. Whisper a password, follow a corridor and open a door where you will reach its small, intimate, and candlelit space. It’s secretive entrance melts away as cheery staff welcome you in black trousers with braces, whilst live musicians play jazz classics!
IMPORTANT! The only way to gain access to Blaine is by providing a password, which changes every week – you’ll need to go on their Facebook page and send a request via private message!
Moonshiner
Nearest serviced apartment? Psst… It’s here
Behind a telephone box, underneath a kebab shop or on the other side of Smeg fridge, ‘speakeasy’ bars are inspired by the drinking spots of prohibition-era America, tucked away in odd places that the passing drinker would never discover if they didn’t already know it was there. The more hidden the bar, the better. Get to Mooshiner, where you’ll have to make your way through the restaurant Pizza Da Vito, then push your way through the metal door of the walk-in fridge.
With its hushed atmosphere, dim lighting, retro jazz on the gramophone and a strongbox in the elegant smoking room (if you manage to open the box, you win what’s in there), the secretive and classy vibe is respected throughout. The tattooed, heavily-accented staff are easy going, making the ‘secret’ experience all the more pleasurable!
Le Ballroom du Beefclub
Nearest serviced apartment? Psst… It’s here
Paris’ Beefclub restaurant is well known for its cuts of fine meats that are cooked to perfection – but if you travel beneath via a spiral staircase, you’ll find an unmarked black door where you’ll find red brick walls, tiled ceilings and a gleaming collection of spirits and liqueurs; all creating the perfect setting for this dimly-lit speakeasy-style cocktail bar. Waistcoat-wearing bartenders serve up drinks and banter as you sink into Chesterfield sofas.
The atmosphere is complemented by the eclectic playlist that features rap, funk, soul and jazz. The secret is out, however, so be sure to get in quick as Le Ballroom gets busy during weekends.
Le Syndicat
Nearest serviced apartment? Psst… It’s here
The first thing you will notice about this secret drinking den is that it’s not traditional in its delivery. Sip your cocktails to the sounds of hip-hop (Busta Rhymes and P. Diddy… well, they are all fans of Cognac after all!)
Its entrance is hidden away behind a cover of peeling posters and is guarded by a bouncer – a dark, dingy entrance that you would never suspect is home to a great Parisian bar… open the door and be dazzled by its glamorous, sparkly and bronzed interior! Little-known liquors litter the drinks menu (cognacs, armagnacs and more) – all put to good use by expert bar staff. From vintage bottles to updated classic cocktails and daring modern creations, this is a great place to discover forgotten tastes of French booze.

did a lot of research before booking a serviced accommodation in Singapore. We settled on this one looking at the prices and facilities on offer. The rooms were exactly as shown on the website and the services were praiseworthy.
I booked here sometime in April and I got a great deal here. Got a free night’s stay on my booking. There’s nothing amiss here and the staff was very well-spoken and courteous.
The accommodation is reasonably priced and the staff was great. I am definitely recommending this place to friends.
It is perfect location wise. Stayed here for quite a long while-a month to be precise. I was in Singapore for work and I had to call a few clients over for important briefings quite a lot of times. The Sky Bar cafe nearby was our go to spot. My stay here was great and I have nothing bad to say about this place.
The beds were of a good size and comfy with extra linens in the cupboards. The kitchen had fully functional utilities and the bath area was neatly stacked with all toiletries in place. The staff was diligent and very polite. We had a great stay here. This place is highly recommended.

LITTLE Bradley Lowery has a "girlfriend" called Poppy who says the brave lad "gives out loads of cuddles".
Adorable Poppy Moore told the BBC the six-year-old, who is bravely battling terminal cancer, was her "boyfriend".
The Year One pupil joined Bradley's other friends at Blackhall Colliery Primary School, County Durham, to perform their heart-rending tribute song Smile for Bradley.
The heart-rending tune is storming the charts after youngsters recorded it with local sister act Liv 'n' G.
Giving a huge smile, Poppy said about Bradley: "He's my boyfriend."
Asked why, she said: "Because he's so cute and he gives out loads of cuddles."
The track in aid of the Bradley Lowery Foundation.

Jackson Martinez effectively released by Chinese Super League club Guangzhou Evergrande after £37.5m flop
Colombian was a record signing when he moved in 2016 but has been left out of the squad for this season
CHINESE Super League side Guangzhou Evergrande have effectively released £37.5m flop Jackson Martinez on a free.
The Colombian made his big-money move to the Far East from Atletico Madrid in February 2016.
But the 31-year-old's time in Asia appears to be at an end after he was left out of their 31-man squad for the upcoming season.
Martinez forged a fearsome reputation for himself during a prolific spell with Porto.
And his 94 goals in 143 games in Portugal led to Atletico Madrid splashing out over £30m to bring him to Spain in 2015.
But he failed to replicate his scoring exploits in La Liga as he mustered just three strikes for Diego Simeone's side.
And when Evergrande came calling with a then Chinese Super League record bid, Atletico decided to cash-in.
Jackson himself was richly-rewarded himself after penning a bumper contract.
FAN-TUB-STIC Sexy Danish fans put on bikinis and hit hot tub... despite blizzard
However, he failed to repay the huge outlay on him throughout his injury-ravaged two-year stint.
The South American bagged just four times and was restricted to only 16 appearances.
LATEST FOOTBALL NEWS
Last summer he shared snaps of him in hospital following surgery on his ankle.
It was the second operation he had undergone on his left leg.
But Evergrande have now decided to cut their losses on the frontman after deeming him surplus to requirements.
Jackson is a Colombian international and has won 40 caps for his country, hitting the net on nine occasions for his homeland.
But his hopes of reclaiming a place in his country's squad for this summer's World Cup now appear to be completely.

FOR most of us the mere sight of roast turkey and all the trimmings is enough to tickle our tastebuds.
But when you are a hard-to-please celebrity chef like Aldo Zilli, festive fare must meet loftier expectations.
The stuffing must be superb, the roasties resplendent, and the Christmas cake the climax to a fabulous feast.
So how do our favourite supermarkets measure up in his eyes?
We asked Aldo, 60, to sample a selection of their own brand seasonal food in the comfort of Fumo, his new central London San Carlo restaurant.
He rates each item out of five and awards a gold star to the best.
Here Aldo tells AMY JONES and GRANT ROLLINGS whose pigs in blankets hog the limelight and who’s got the blandest brandy butter. . .
Mince pies
TESCO: Mince pies six pack, 89p
The filling is too sweet and there’s barely any of it. 2/5

ANDY CARROLL has been branded ‘nasty’ by one of his West Ham team-mates.
The striker was sent off in the 1-1 draw at Burnley for two brainless challenges within just TEN SECONDS of game time.
And Carroll got a rocket from Pablo Zabaleta for the elbows on James Tarkowski and Ben Mee which left the Hammers to play with ten men for over an hour at Turf Moor.
They finally succumbed in the 85th minute when Chris Wood cancelled out Michail Antonio’s opener.
And Zabaleta fumed: “I think Andy’s challenges were a bit nasty.

Ministerial alliance, Alton N.A.A.C.P hosting early voting march this Sunday
Caption
ALTON — The Riverbend Ministerial Alliance and Alton N.A.A.C.P are joining together to host a “Souls to the Polls” event Sunday, encouraging community-wide early voting for the upcoming Illinois primary elections.
The march will begin at 10 a.m. Sunday, March 18 at Deliverance Temple, 1125 E. 6th St., Alton, and will end at Alton’s Scott Bibb Center – the city’s sole early voting location – where attendees will be encouraged to vote in the Illinois primaries.
The march is being organized by R.M.A. President Jason Harrison along with his father, Pastor Gregory Harrison of Deliverance Temple, and longtime community leader Andy Hightower, President of the Alton Branch of the N.A.A.C.P. This event is expected to draw throngs of people from across Madison County.
“The march was designed to highlight the incredible importance of the upcoming elections in March and November,” Jason Harrison said. “‘Souls to the Polls’ provides the perfect opportunity for us to gather together and collectively exercise our rights as citizens to choose who will represent us locally, state-wide and in the federal government.”
Election Day for the 2018 Illinois primary elections will take place on Tuesday, March 20, and Sunday’s event will be the final opportunity for many residents to take advantage of early voting.
“’Souls to the Polls’ is a historic day for citizens throughout the Alton community,” said Hightower. “Earlier this year, the Madison County Board attempted to eliminate important early voting days and locations. Early voting attacks are real, and if we don’t demonstrate that we value these days by voting, they will be eliminated. That is why we have organized this march – to exercise our right to be heard.”
For more information on the “Souls to the Polls” march, contact the Riverbend Ministerial Alliance at (618) 223-4211 and see the march details below.

Top Ten Reasons Why Juice is Better Than Music SpeakersDCfnaf Hello people. This will be the most majestic list you have ever read on TheTopTens.
Juice is one of the best drinks you can possibly have. Cranberry Juice, Apple Juice, Grape Juice, etc. all make this world much better. You know what doesn't? Music Speakers. And here's why I think juice is better than music speakers.
The Top Ten
If we don't listen to music through a speaker, we can live our lives anyway. However, if we don't drink juice, we will get dehydrated, we will shrivel up like prunes, and decompose. Juice is required to live, therefore it is 100% more useful than music speakers. - DCfnaf
Yeah, it keeps you from getting thirsty! And it also tastes good with meals! Buy juice instead of music speakers! It will feed you, music speakers won't, lol! - AnimeDrawer
I hate orange juice but love apple and grape juice never had any other juice. Music speakers are too loud. - purpleyoshi98
This is the greatest list of all time. - Cartoonfan202V 2 Comments
Cranberry, Grape, Orange, Apple, Grapefruit, Pineapple, etc. There is tons of variety when it comes to juice. Sure, there are different brands of speakers, but you're getting the same experience from each of them. You put in your music into each speaker, and the same thing will be blasting out. Different flavors of juice give you many different experiences on the taste buds. - DCfnaf
Yeah, my favorite flavors of juice are orange juice and peach juice. And they are worth buying more than music speakers! - AnimeDrawer
OH MAH GOD! YAS! THIS LIST IS GOOD ALREADY! - Ultron123
It's very boring if you're not drinking something, and juice can be drank. Sadly, Music Speakers can't be drank and you can only use your ears to listen to them. That's just lame. - DCfnaf
The beautiful sensation on your taste buds though... - DCfnaf
When you look at the meniscus of the juice as it waves back and forth inside the glass, you see the world in a whole new light. - DCfnaf
If it's sweaty outside, music speakers are not going to rehydrate you. - DCfnaf
These things can be blaring at high volume and your ear drums will pop. That's pretty awful. Juice doesn't do this obviously. - DCfnaf
They can make you deaf, those speakers. - Ultron123
"Mo Bounce"? "Bingo"? Garbage. We don't want trash blaring on the music speakers. - DCfnaf
Of course, juice is essential in everyday life, music speakers is not essential in everyday life. They sell juice everywhere, music speakers are not sold everywhere because they are not as significant. - AnimeDrawer
Juice is more popular so it's clearly better. I don't need to research that, it's a fact. - DCfnaf
Oh gosh, please no. I don't want to hear his music very loudly, especially if it is playing Boyfriend. If they play good music, then I would dance to it and go crazy! - AnimeDrawer
Goes without saying really. - DCfnaf

contact information is shown.. There are specialized companies across the United States that offer training for employers and co-workers of deaf employees. Language.
TISDDB as an agency provides Interpreter(s) who are indepedent contractors recruited based on their experience, skill, education, interpreter training, certification, attitude, and reptuation. In addition to their qualifications we require a full screening conducted by the agency.
TISDDB is more than happy to accomodate your staff interpreters in addition to any interpreters that you request through TISDDB. TISDDB will ensure that the interpreters provided by TISDDB will work closely with your staff interpreters.
There is no limit., above a certain size, to provide sign language interpreters as needed in order to
provide equal communications access. Sign language interpreting is an effective means of providing communications access to your business or
organization.
Many factors affect people's communication style and method. Since no two people are alike, you should ask the deaf individual which type of
Interpreter best suits his or her needs.
Whenever clear communication is required between Deaf and (non- signing) hearing people, interpreters should be used. Some examples would include, but are not limited to:
Sometimes more than one interpreter is required, especially if an assignment is particularly long or technically dense..
Signing adequately is vastly different from Professional Interpreting. A qualified Interpreter is specialized in delivering the translation
smoothly, accurately, and impartially, adjusting to specialized settings and terminology. Interpreters will speak everything that is signed, and sign
everything that is spoken. They will not add to, edit, or censor the conversation. All Professional Interpreters subscribe to a rigorous Code
of Ethics that stresses confidentiality, impartiality and integrity.
An important thing to remember when using an interpreter is that the Interpreter works best as an objective party. Trying to elicit a comment or
opinion from the Interpreter will diminish their effectiveness and hamper the flow of communication. Speak in a normal tone of voice and at a normal
pace; speaking more slowly would make it harder for the interpreter to translate. For more detailed information go to The Registry of Interpreters
for the Deaf website,.
Yes. Every country has its own sign language. American Sign Language (ASL) is the language of culturally Deaf people in the United States.
Regional variations exist in ASL: like all languages, there are dialects and accents. Several other methods of sign language have been developed over
the years, which follow a more English word order. Some of these sign methods are: Conceptually Accurate Signed English (CASE), Manually Coded English (MCE), Pidgin Signed English (PSE), and Signed Exact English (SEE).
Spoken language interpreters are welcome to use and work through TISDDB.

A non-governmental organisation known as Northern Emancipation Network has described Tuesday siege of National Assembly by men of Department of State Services (DSS) as ‘coup’ in democracy.
The group, which stated this in a statement signed by its National Coordinator, Abdul-azeez Suleiman, expressed worry over the development saying, it is dangerous for Nigeria’s growing democracy.
The statement read in part, “Nigeria woke up this morning (Tuesday) to disturbed reports of a siege of the National Assembly by federal security agents.
“The development is disturbing as it constitutes a grave danger to the nation’s fledgling democracy and cannot be condoned.
“Nigeria of 2018 cannot be the same as the old days Soviet Union under Boris Yelsin where other arms of government were subjected to brute force.
It amounts to an unacceptable brutal encroachment on the democratic sanctity of the legislative arm of government for the nation’s security to be turned against it.
“We call on the civil society and the international community to stand up against this rising tide of impunity and latent threat to democracy as well as an open invitation to chaos by the authorities that are supposed to prevent it.”

Margot Micallef has figured out how to make gluten free pasta taste good! 1.What/who inspired you to start your company? My sister, Gabriella, and I had given up pasta in our quest to eat clean. But that could only last so long — we’re Italian, after all! We hunted for pasta that offered great taste and quality nutrition but couldn’t find anything we liked. That’s when I said to my sister, “We have to develop one ourselves.” That’s when we created our original skinnypasta™, which is low in both calories and carbohydrates but high in protein, and have since expanded our product family significantly. We now offer pastas made with teff, a nutrient-dense and gluten-free ancient grain, prepared meals for adults and kids, and we’re getting ready to launch sauces. Our company grew out of the belief that foods can be both nutritious and delicious, and our mission is to empower everyone to nourish and celebrate healthy living! 2.Where did you grow up? What was your childhood like? I grew up mostly in Canada but spent some time in Europe and the US. My family was very Italian and my mum and grandparents spoke only Italian to us as we were growing up. My mum learned to speak English over time and still speaks it with an Italian accent. My grandparents never learned English. Thankfully my dad spoke nine languages, including English. My childhood was less indulged than many others. I worked from the age of 13 on to help support my family (we all did). I never begrudged it. I sometimes wished when I was a teenager that I could hang around with my friends after school instead of going to my babysitting job. Most of the time though I didn’t mind it. My siblings and I (there were six of us/ three girls and three boys) were very competitive in school and games. But we also were each others’ biggest supporters. I remember laughing a lot and sitting around the table after dinner arguing about politics, or baseball, or who had worked the hardest in the garden or whatever! We were a loving and happy ethnic family. 3.If you could have any super power what would it be and why? I would definitely say the ability to apparate as Harry Potter was able to do (disappear and reappear in the desired location). I am always doing too much and always running late. If I could factor out the travel time, I’d save a bundle of time and maybe accomplish everything I have on my list! 4.Tell us a story/incident that happened while starting or running your company that may have made you feel defeated. Now tell us how you overcame that. Six years ago I lost my best friend and business partner when my sister, Gabriella, passed away. For the first two years after she died I did nothing with the business. I hired a man to run the business but he lacked passion and the company floundered during that time. When I finally had the strength to take it over I vowed I would build the company in Gabriella’s honor. That’s when I changed the name of the company to Gabriella’s Kitchen and took over the operations as CEO. Gabriella's illness and passing has been one of the most painful experiences in my life but also one that taught me the strength in vulnerability and openness. During her illness Gabriella would often reach out to me or other people with whom she was close and share her fears openly. She showed me that reaching out was not a sign of weakness but just the opposite. She was gracious throughout and found strength and joy in the love people shared with her. She wasn’t afraid to love and laugh with abandon regardless of her circumstance. This experience made me a more empathetic leader and allowed me to let my guard down with those close to me and to reach out when I need help. 5.Have you ever been underestimated simply for being a woman? Tell us how. I am mostly oblivious to the fact that I am female. I recall however one incident when I was a young lawyer handling the sale of a client’s business when a prospective buyer told one of the senior partners in my firm that he would not deal with me because I was female. My senior partner responded, “Then you will not be participating in the bidding because it’s her file and she’s not going anywhere”. The prospect capitulated and dealt with me. 6.Are you working on any upcoming projects you can tell us about? We’re in the process of rebranding our skinnypasta™ products. We’ve listened to our consumers and we know that being “skinny” isn’t their goal. And even if “skinny” means more to us than skin and bones, we want to be clear, our brand is about being the best you can be, finding that inner potential and pushing boundaries. We’re all about nourishing healthy lifestyles with simple, all-natural foods. So, we’ll be unveiling a new name and look soon, but it’s under wraps for now! We’re really excited to share it with everyone. And we’re always dreaming up new foods, like sauces and nutrient-dense meals, so definitely keep an eye out for those soon. 7.What are your goals with the company? My ultimate goal is for everyone across North America to eat Gabriella’s Kitchen skinnypasta™. We offer pastas for everyone, be it for someone who’s watching her weight, wanting to refuel after a workout or just put healthy food on the table for her family. Many of our pastas are gluten-free and all of them are free of GMOs, preservatives and additives — and are all full of delicious, healthy stuff, including protein. Mostly though, we’re passionate about maintaining authentic Italian taste and texture because that’s what we want to eat, too! I really want people to know they don’t have to sacrifice taste for nutrition. Food can be healthy AND delicious!

How to Manage Your Anger, According to the Truly Rich Lady
My Very Blunt Friend called me a She-Hulk yesterday. I deserved it.
She witnessed me snap at an innocent telemarketer, who had only been trying to invite me to a new property. In six seconds, I went from quiet and lovely to green and angry, unleashing a terse remark and then swiftly ending the call without a proper goodbye.
In my defense—though there really is no real
And then the phone rang. And my eyes clouded over in hungry anger. And I said the horrible words. And pressed the red button. And I instantly regretted everything. And my friend called me a She-Hulk. And she took a snap of my face “...for my followers! Hi hi!” And I threatened her with a bread roll. And she erased the evidence.
In hindsight, I now apologize to the young man who was just doing his job (I will visit the new apartments!) and to my friend who just wanted to have her fill
I would also like to apologize to myself, Si-si, the She-Hulk, Coo, for not mastering my emotions. I know very well that, in moments of anger, the following is what I should do.
What should you do when your food—and only your food—has not arrived?
So terrible can hunger be that it overrides all sense. Never get in the way of a lady and her first meal of the day. But also never surrender to baser instincts for you are no animal, madame. You just love animal prints!
When anger or, more appropriately, hanger kicks in, recognize it. The internal monologue, which should be executed with the most pleasant smile plastered on your face, can be: “I am getting angry! Raaaah! But I should stop and just force out this horrifying smile.”
I also like to confuse my feelings by doing mental gymnastics such as counting backwards from 100 in French. “Cent… quatre-
How many times is it okay to follow up?
It is your right as a customer to ascertain the arrival of a meal as long as you’ve given the establishment enough time and the delivery of your inquiry is courteous.
Fine establishments will take 15 to 20 minutes to push food out. After that, you may call the attention of your server and ask very gently, “Kind sir, is my food this white plate?” Okay, don’t be sarcastic.
As for the frequency, once or twice is fine—with time between inquiries. When you find the need to ask thrice, it’s time to get up and switch restaurants. I hear drive-thrus at fast food are, well, fast.
Is it proper to hover?
I do this: I place myself in the line of sight of the person in charge of delivering what I
On the matter of propriety, this is the lesser of evils. Sitting in silence is better than making a fuss. Maybe its time to count
This applies to other things that require waiting like appointments at your therapist, dentist, plastic surgeon, and the like. Though, if you are a Truly Rich VIP, there will never be—what do you call it again?—waiting.
What if nothing happens after all that?
Please remain calm. The last resort is to turn to a higher power, the hostess of your dinner, in this case. If she is an experienced party-thrower, then she will know right away, through your pale visage, that something is wrong.
If she has missed it, you can deliver the concern with a touch of light-heartedness. “Andrea, may I have a bite of your sprig of thyme?” With hope, she understands and follows up with the kitchen in person. This usually does the trick. We also hope that your food was worth the wait.
What happens when you get a phone call in the middle of all of this?
Pick up only if it is your Truly Rich Mother, your pastor, or your Greatest Ex. Otherwise, ignore the unidentified number. You are not in a proper state of mind to process a request at the moment.
What if the service is atrociously poor?
If you have chosen to stay (and behave), but the poor experience was not remedied, there is nothing else to do but weather the storm.
The food never arrived? Have you finished the packet of mints stashed in your vintage
Later, after the fact, a powwow session with your Truly Rich BFF is a must. Vent off steam. Air your concerns. Then, pinky-swear that you will both forget about the incident. You will feel better, especially if you do it at a buffet.
Establishments will sometimes send a survey about your experience. It is an opportunity, not to get back at them, but to help them. I do a straightforward note: “Though the establishment has done its best, the service was imperfect. I would love to visit again and see improvements.”
That will be enough to make them quake in their boots.

Although Torremolinos may lay claim to the gay capital of Andalusia, the gay scene of Seville is by no means taking a siesta. The majority of Seville’s gay venues are concentrated around Alameda de Hercules and are open well into the night.
Here in Seville you will find a decent selection of Gay Bars, Gay Dance Clubs, Gay Cruise Clubs and Gay Saunas. There is also a Spanish language course aimed specifically at gay travellers, if you fancy extending your stay and brushing up on a bit of Spanish.
By plane
Seville Airport (SVQ), or San Pablo Airport, is located 10km north east of the city. It is well-connected to European destinations by both the major flag carriers and by the budget airlines as well.
Bus line EA takes you from the airport into the city centre with the bus stop just outside of the terminal. The journey takes 30 minutes and services run from 4.30am to 1.15am. Singles cost €4 and can be bought from the driver.
A taxi is quickest way to get into the city centre, although this is the most expensive. Journeys take half an hour and will cost €20-25 depending on traffic. The taxi rank is also just outside of the terminal.
By train
The Santa Justa Railway Station has high-speed rail connections to and from mainland Spain’s major cities. There are no direct international connections from Seville.
On foot
A city as charming as Seville is best explored by foot. The city is relatively compact so walking from site to site will not take you long. You may wish to take transport, however, if the sweltering summer heat is too much or if you are burdened with heavy luggage.
By metro
Seville’s metro system is currently being expanded but is still an effective means of getting around. Singles start from €1.35 depending on how many zones you cross and all-zone day passes are €4.50. Services run from 6:30am to 11pm in the week with later trains at the weekend.
By bus
Seville has an extensive bus network with several easy to navigate circular routes. Tickets start from €1.40 and can be bought on board. Services run from 6am to 11.30pm with night services running until 2am. To save money you can get a multi-voyage card for both tram and bus travel.
By tram
Seville’s tram service is confusingly called Metro-Centre but is unconnected to the metro system and respective tickets won’t apply on each mode of transport. You can get a ticket from the station for €1.20. Services run 6am to 1.30am.
By horse
An emblematic image of Seville is that of it’s horses and carriages. While certainly a romantic means of getting around we would ask you to spare a thought for the horses and avoid this method in the sweltering summer heat.
For some of the best Seville hotel selections for gay travellers, visit our Gay Seville Hotels page.
Cathedral and La Giralda – an impressive feat of architecture that was built on the remains of the old mosque. La Giralda used to be the minaret and offers spectacular views. The cathedral is also notable for being the final resting place of Christopher Columbus.
The Real Alacazar – fantastic 14th Century palace built in Moorish style where Christopher Columbus planned his journey to the Americas. It has many rooms, gardens, courtyards and ponds to explore and is a good bet to escape the heat.
Plaza de España – well-known public square that you may recognize as a filming location in the Star Wars prequel trilogy.
Parque María Luisa – built for the 1929 Iber-Americano World Fair this park is now dotted with beautiful monuments and fascinating museums.
Museo de Bellas Artes – considered by many to be the most important museum in Spain after Madrid’s El Prado. This museum is a former convent that hosts an excellent selection of Sevillan art from the Gothic period to the early 20th Century.
Museo del Baile Flamenco – another of Seville’s iconic images is that of the flamenco dancer and here you can find out the history of one of the world’s most famous dances. On Friday and Saturday evenings there are live performances.
Seville is known as the warmest metropolitan area in Western Europe which results in average summer highs of 35°C. We would recommend visiting in spring or fall when the temperature is cooler and tourists are less plentiful. Winters are cool but tend to be wetter.
Like much of Spain, there are a variety of fiestas and events held throughout the year with religious Easter processions and the Festival of April juxtaposing the solemn with the carnivalesque. The city hosts a gay

Students Jehremy Harris and Aditi Soni recently came up with a new packaging concept called 'Lumijoy' for the popular mint brand Mentos. Inspired by the brand's Hindi tagline, the new packaging is designed to help the brand bring its product to life in India.
Harris and Soni came up with the idea for the Lumijoy packaging after hearing the brand's Hindi tagline "Dimaag Ki Batti Jalaa De," which loosely translates into the phrase "Make one's mind light up." The students took this idea literally and created a spherical package that lights up when opened. The idea is to illuminate the mints and bring the product to life as soon as the package is opened.
By cleverly playing on Mentos' existing tagline, Harris and Soni created an amusing and multifunctional package that keeps the consumer engaged even when they are not eating the mints.

The 'Shaq Attaq' from Reebok is perhaps one of the athletic brand's most recognizable basketball sneakers of recent times, with an elaborate white, black and electric blue colorway that makes it stand out.
The design, which is said to have first appeared back in 2013, will be relaunched in 2017 with a look that honors its earlier retro inspiration. Dubbed the 'Orlando Blue,' the Shaq Attaq celebrates the legendary former NBA player that its named after, with a design that's as big as he is.
The basketball sneakers are constructed with a mostly white leather upper, which is contrasted with black suede detailing, and thinner gray-white detailing that runs through them. Meanwhile, the tongue and heel of the Shaq Attaq is adorned in a subtly metallic electric blue material, giving the model its iconic look.

The Safest Place to Hide in a Zombie Apocalypse
Trendingpod
In case a zombie apocalypse happens, where are you planning to hide?
In the shopping mall like the movies? In your house barricaded? In a farm, a prison? Well, we all know how THAT panned out in the movies.
Turns out, according to an article by Science Alert, there’s actually a safest place to hide, in case of a zombie apocalypse.
If your ultimate goal is to survive the plague of flesh eating zombies, then it seems that being in the middle of nowhere is your safest bet. Back in 2015, a team of statisticians made a study to better understand the spread of real diseases. And using a fictitious zombie plague spreading across America as an example, they found out that the best place to hide is remote, sparsely populated locations.
According to the authors of the study, an infection occurring in big cities such as New York or Los Angeles, could take months before reaching remote areas.
Lead author Alex Alemi said, “Given the dynamics of the disease, once the zombies invade more sparsely populated areas, the whole outbreak slows down – there are fewer humans to bite, so you start creating zombies at a slower rate.”
Obviously, cities with many people fall the fastest. Imagine a zombie attack in a crowded bus. More people, equals more people to bite and spread the infection, which will result into more zombies.
In the press release, the authors of the study further added, “the project was an overview of modern epidemiology modeling, starting with differential equations to model a fully connected population, then moving on to lattice-based models, and ending with a full US-scale simulation of an outbreak across the continental US.”
Unfortunately, if an infection does happen in America, it seems that even with the best hideouts, they are still doomed.

South Korea defender Cho Yong-hyung is in the sights of Aston Villa.
The central defender played in all four games at the World Cup as the Taeguk Warriors reached the last 16 for the first time on foreign soil.
Cho, 26, currently plays for Korean side Jeju United but his performances for his country have attracted interest from a host of clubs across Europe according to Yoon Ki-yeon of the player's agency Inspokorea.
"Aston Villa and a few other European clubs have shown interest in Cho," he said in The Korea Herald."I can confirm that he is on their transfer list and I expect the official deal will be made after the World Cup."

Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp has failed with a double striker bid.
The Mirror says the White Hart Lane boss has had a £4million bid for Manchester City marksman Craig Bellamy turned down and a loan move for AC Milan striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar rejected.
But Redknapp remains undeterred and is ready to play the waiting game. He believes he could even get BOTH players on loan with their clubs desperate to offload them.

Judith Barsi was a very busy child actress. She appeared in more than 50 commercials, acted in TV shows such as The Love Boat, St. Elsewhere and Growing Pains (playing the younger version of Carol, the role played by Tracey Gold), as well as appearing in feature films such as Jaws: The Revenge and Slam Dance. Unfortunately, her home life was very difficult. Her father was an abusive alcoholic and on July 25, 1988, he murdered Judith and her mother before taking his own life. Judith was only 10 years old.
Your article was a wake-up call to remind us how precious life can be.
Such a shame that they leave us so soon.
Indeed. Such an informative and heartfelt article.

We were well looked after the whole time we where there all the staff and owners where great fun. Will go back before the year is out

The main street through this neighborhood has quaint buildings and a lovely clock tower. There was also a nice pet shop. It’s probably a pleasant night spot with some restaurants open during the day.
In from out of town for a wedding, this area was perfect for us and our guests to eat, drink and visit! Especially pretty at night. Great food, drink and atmosphere!
MainStrasse offered a lot of dining and pub restaurants. All within walking distance of each other. Enjoyed window shopping!
Fun little village in Covington. Great restaurants and fun shops and boutiques to browse. We spent about three hours on a Saturday afternoon. The Bourbon Bar is a must! And Piper's Chili dog is to die for! (yes! a chili dog). You won't be disappointed.
Was disappointing. Nice neighborhood walking area but not many places to go. We were there on a Sunday, some places were closed, but limited number of choices. It's advertised as a German area so we thought there would be bars and restaurants featuring German foods...More
We walked a few blocks from our hotel to the Village. Such a beautiful area with restored buildings from late 1800's. Lots of restaurants with outdoor seating, bars, shops, etc. We weren't there long, but did enjoy it very much.
Enjoyed going through the neighborhood seeing the past blend with the present. Nice variety of restaurants with patio/sidewalk dining.
Always visit here for a night when we come to town for Bengal games across the river. Must stop for Kentucky bourbon and some good eats. Always stop at Fridas, Smoke Justice, and Malones. So fun.
Especially during the Oktoberfest. Outside beer and food galore. Loads of fun. A repeat event for us.
This is a cure area to walk around and browse in the shops. There are also lots of cute little sidewalk cafe's for lunch or a snack.

The purpose of the Remote Inspection Program is to provide an alternative to on-site inspection for situations requiring more prompt service or when a specific inspection time is desired. It may also be used for follow up inspections after an inspector visited the job site in person first. The program requires a client to use the Skype or FaceTime app on a 4G smart phone in order to interact with the City inspector. The inspection process is as follows: Clients schedule a remote inspection through our calendaring service; the inspector initiates a Skype or FaceTime call to the client; the inspector directs the client to send video images of the work that needs to be inspected; the inspection results are entered in our system for client to view on our web site.
Schedule an Appointment for a Remote Video Inspection (Skype or FaceTime required)
Eligible Permits:

- Electrical Service Upgrades
- Electrical Reconnects
- Water Heaters
- Gas Line Installations
- Parking Shade Structures
- Detached Storage Sheds
- Residential Construction
- Follow-up Inspections (must verify with inspector)
Note: All remote video inspections must be scheduled prior to 2:00 pm
If you feel your project would benefit from this program but is not on the list above, please contact our Inspection Manager to discuss the opportunity for us to better serve your needs.
Note: Based on the size and/or complexity of the project it may not be possible to complete the inspection via the Remote Inspection Program. In that case, the remote inspector will partially approve the inspection and make every effort to route a field inspector to complete the inspection the same day. If this is not possible the inspector will schedule a field inspection for the next business day.
Client Responsibilities
4G wireless service
Ensure your inspection location has 4G connectivity and your smart phone or tablet has 4G connectivity. Note that 3G connectivity may not provide the speed and clarity required to complete the inspection.

On Thursday's episode of The Nightly Show, Larry Wilmore went all out — note his outfit — in anticipation of listening to presidential hopeful Ben Carson's new rap campaign ad. Unfortunately, it didn't take long for the host to rip off his cap and declare, "I can't listen to this sh--.
"This is just ridiculous," he said, skewering the admittedly awful rap tune. "You know what, I feel bad for my rap listening equipment. It still hasn't forgiven me for my longer-than-normal Ray Parker, Jr. phase...Come on, Ben Carson. A rap song? Is it so hard to get the black vote? You're the black candidate! You're in danger of losing it now."
Though it seems the GOP candidate agrees with Wilmore, who said during an event in Miami on Thursday that he "probably would have taken a little different approach.
"Well, there are people in the campaign who felt that that was a good way to do things. And, you know, they're entitled to their opinions about such things," Carson said, according to CNN.
Have you heard the Carson rap ads? What do you think?
The Nightly Show airs weeknights at 11:30/10:30c on Comedy Central.

I think tonight’s episode of Vegas may win for having the most plots in one episode.
The main plot of the episode began with our not-so-friendly neighborhood FBI Agent Patrick Byrne, who took his determination to find information on Savino to a whole new level by putting extra pressure on Savoy employees for tax evasion. One man, Ned Harris, found himself under the microscope by the agent, only to be later found dead and floating in his pool. A coincidence?
The case became even more suspicious when Sheriff Lamb and Katherine could find no next of kin for Ned, and learn that the man didn’t even seem to exist before ten years prior. It was only with the begrudging help of Agent Byrne that they found Ned’s true identity – that of Gary Spiegler, owner of a factory that burned down and killed someone. After the incident he and his partner jumped bail, never to be heard from again. The two go to visit the neighbor who found “Ned’s” body, and find that her husband “Harry” is the missing partner, Arthur Hauser.
But where is Mr. Hauser?
As it would happen, Hauser has been working at The Savoy since he and Spiegler first skipped town. When Spiegler started to panic after Byrne took his fingerprints (completely unrelated to their prior crime), Hauser panicked as well, and killed him. In his fit of paranoia and desperation, Hauser took Mia hostage in a suite at The Savoy, demanding $20,000. Things got even more complicated for the man though, when Jack arrived to ask Mia about Ned-slash-Spiegler’s employment at The Savoy. Though she tried to shoo him away as her captor demanded, she made a last-ditch effort to hint the problem to the deputy, only to have him end up hostage as well after trying to save her. The two ended up handcuffed together, forced to watch when Hauser shot Tony, an innocent Savoy employee delivering the demanded cash, and go with Hauser to meet his wife to leave Vegas.
During the entire hostage ordeal Jack did an excellently unsuccessful job at trying to talk some sense into Hauser, and eventually gave himself up in exchange for Mia’s safety after Hauser’s wife refuses to leave with him. It seemed as if time was running out, until Jack and Katherine walk into the Savoy looking for more information, assuming that Jack had informed Savino of his employee’s murder. None of them, of course, have seen Jack or Mia all day. Thankfully, the gunshot was reported and the Sheriff was able to get a lead on Jack and Mia’s whereabouts from Tony just as he was being put into an ambulance.
Ralph must have driven like a mad man to get to Jack, and purposely drove his brother’s car off the rode to cut them off and take Hauser into custody.
This entire investigation also served the purpose of bringing both Jack and Mia, and Ralph and Katherine back together before what will absolutely be a contentious final two episodes. It was rather sweet to watch Mia run into Jack’s arms upon his safe return.
Previous to the manhunt, Savino and his boys had been plotting how to make the best of their situation, having to run the Tumbleweed for mining big shot Porter Gainsley. He as well as his lawyer had been growing suspicious of Savino’s business practices, and increasingly unhappy with how things were going. So what better for Savino, to solve all of his problems, but anonymously tip off the FBI to Gainsley’s own trouble – using money meant for victims of a mining accident to fund the casino? Though the set-up seemed somewhat background in this episode, after the extended preview for the show’s final episodes, this is definitely an important plot point.
Though it seemed Dixon and Yvonne’s sub-lot was rather irrelevant, I have a feeling it set-up what will be the over-arching theme of the season’s finale. For the couple, Yvonne’s ethnicity became a concern when Dixon wanted to take her to a movie. Dixon seemed rather un-phased by the “Colored Entrance,” not even realizing that it was an issue, but Yvonne was so put-off by the complication that she very nearly walked away from their relationship. Ralph didn’t let Dixon let that stop them though, and proposed that only a certain kind of man would let their differences get in the way. Dixon proved himself to Yvonne by finding an officiant for the wedding of a man being held at the station and his fiancé after dragging his feet for the whole episode, and showed her that he knows when something is worth fighting for.
The great thing about Vegas is that each episode can stand on its own, yet at the same time be so subtly and effectively be setting up larger conflict. Not to mention the fact that the characters are wonderfully unique while not different enough to clash. This is certainly a show that I would watch in marathon, if only to appreciate the hints that were surely lying in wait earlier in the season for what is happening now.
And of course, who doesn’t love sassy Sheriff Ralph Lamb? His having FBI vehicles towed out of spite was one of the great moments in this episode.
If you missed tonight’s episode, I highly suggest watching it before the final two episodes of the season.
Vegas airs Friday night at 9PM on CBS.
Great review. I love this show, can’t believe it’s not more popular. Really worried about it’s chances for renewal, but will enjoy it til the end.

EU to monitor impact of blockade on civilians in Donbas
738
Ukrinform
The European Union will monitor the consequences of the decision of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine on the prohibition of goods movement across the contact line for the civilian population in eastern Ukraine.
Spokesperson of the European Commission Maja Kocijančič said this in an exclusive commentary to an Ukrinform correspondent in Brussels.
"We will carefully monitor the impact of the decision on the civilian population," she said.
As noted, the European Union advocates much needed inclusive approach to the Ukrainian citizens, who live in the currently uncontrolled territories of eastern Ukraine, within the framework of the steady support for the country.
"Recent events, unfortunately, contradict this approach and create the risk for further negative impact on the humanitarian situation," the EU representative noted.

FinTech startup Cleo, a digital assistant which helps consumers manage their finances, has secured $10m.
Users can connect their bank accounts to Cleo, which then offers personalised insight into an individual’s spending data. Mostly used by millennials, Cleo’s customers speak to her in Facebook Messenger.
The company claims to have more than 600,000 users, with 94% of those aged under-35.
The latest tranche of funding brings Cleo’s total investment raised to $15m.
Balderton Capital led the round and joined existing backers including LocalGlobe as well as angels that include Niklas Zennstrom, founder of Skype; Taavet Hinrikus, founder of TransferWise; and Simon Franks, co-founder of LoveFilm.
Cleo is now looking to launch its own range of financial products.
How to innovate and invent the next best thing in UK tech
CEO Barney Hussey-Yeo said: “From overdraft fees to credit cards, the traditional range of financial products doesn’t work for this generation. The model of retail banking is not set up for the people it serves. Cleo’s changing that.”
The company will continue to expand internationally, having launched in North America in April 2018.
Hussey-Yeo added: “Cleo is designed to solve a global problem. There’s an arms race going on to become the financial interface for this generation. A Google-size company will emerge in the next five years that achieves that.”
Rob Moffat, partner at Balderton Capital, went on to explain why he backed the startup.

Human lysozyme gene mutations cause hereditary systemic amyloidosis.
Pepy M.B., Hawkins P.N., Booth D.R., Vigushin D.M., Tennent G.A., Soutar A.K., Totty N., Nguyen O., Blake C.C.F., Terry C.J., Feest T.G., Zalin A.M., Hsuan J.J., et al.
Hereditary non-neuropathic systemic amyloidosis (Ostertag-type) is a rare autosomal dominant disease in which amyloid deposition in the viscera is usually fatal by the fifth decade. In some families it is caused by mutations in the apolipoprotein AI gene but in two unrelated English families under our care the amyloid deposits did not contain apoAI, despite a report that this may have been the case in one of them. Lysozyme is a ubiquitous bacteriolytic enzyme present in external secretions and in polymorphs and macrophages, but its physiological role is not always clear. Here we report that in these two families, lysozyme is the amyloid fibril protein. Affected individuals are heterozygous for point mutations in the lysozyme gene that cause substitution of highly conserved residues, namely threonine for isoleucine at position 56 in one family, and histidine for aspartic acid at residue 67 in the other. Amyloid fibrils from one individual were composed of the full-length Thr-56 variant lysozyme molecule. To our knowledge, this is the first report of naturally occurring variants of human lysozyme and of lysozyme-associated disease. As the structures of human and hen egg-white lysozyme are known to atomic resolution and their folding and structure-function relationships have been exhaustively analysed, our observations should provide a powerful model for understanding amyloidogenesis.

Personal finance: 15 smart things you can do with $1,000 right now
Don’t let rainy days cloud your feelings! Instead, here's how to start a rainy day fund. USA TODAY
Deploying $1,000 in any of these ways (or several of them!) can make a meaningful difference in your life -- financially or otherwise.
A thousand dollars might be pocket change or a rounding error to multimillionaires and billionaires, but it's a meaningful sum for the rest of us. Any amount of money that we can save can be put to good use.
Here are 15 examples of smart things you can do with $1,000. Depending on your particular situation, some will be more valuable for you than others.
Check out these smart ways to spend $1,000 and see which make the most sense for you.
1. Pay off debt
First things first. If you're carrying significant debt, especially high-interest rate debt, such as what credit cards typically charge, you should make paying that off a priority. (If you don't have high-interest rate debt, consider making an extra payment or two on your mortgage or on student loan debt.) Whether you owe $2,000 or $25,000, applying $1,000 to reducing your debt can make a big difference in your financial health. If your interest rate is 25%, you can avoid paying $250 in interest -- each year!
2. Establish or bulk up an emergency fund
It's risky to go through life without available emergency money. Most of us need to have about three to nine months worth of living expenses tucked away and available in case some unthinkable event, such as a job loss or costly medical expense, happens. If your bank account is usually close to empty, putting your $1,000 in it can establish a buffer between you and overdraft fees. Meeting certain minimum thresholds can get you other perks or avoid other charges, too.
3. Sock it in a retirement account
Put the money in an IRA. A traditional IRA contribution will shrink your taxable income, while a Roth IRA offers tax-free withdrawals in retirement. The 2017 IRA contribution limit is $5,500 for most folks and $6,500 for those 60 or older. A single $1,000 investment won't provide for a comfortable retirement, but it can certainly help provide for one -- especially if you're still young.
Check out how powerfully it might grow over various periods at various average annual growth rates:

Investing in an inexpensive broad-market index fund such as one based on the S&P 500 will get you market-matching returns, which will be pretty good. It can be hard to beat that, but if you'd like to try, you might invest in one or more individual companies that you believe will grow at an above-average rate over the coming decades. They won't always perform as hoped, but if you research your candidates well and then follow the progress of whatever companies you invest in, you stand a chance of outperformance.
Here, for example, are some 15-year growth rates of a few familiar companies — plus what they would have turned $1,000 into over that period:

4. Save for college
Open or fund a 529 Plan account for Junior. You can sock away a lot of money in them, where the funds will grow on a tax-deferred basis. Contributions are often unlimited until the balance of the account reaches several hundred thousand dollars — though contributing more than the maximum allowed for annual tax-free gifts (recently $14,000) can trigger taxes. Distributions for qualifying college-related expenses are tax-free.
5. Get your kids investing
If you can employ that $1,000 to help your kids get into investing, it can pay off exponentially over the long run. You might open a custodial account for them at a local brokerage and then study and invest in some companies together. Our book, The Motley Fool Investment Guide for Teens, can also help (and it costs far less than $1,000). Have discussions about companies and how they grow and face challenges. Have the kid(s) choose a few companies that interest them to follow and/or invest in -- possibilities include Activision Blizzard, Apple, Boeing, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Disney, Hasbro, Netflix, Nike, Starbucks, Target, Under Armour, or VF Corp.
6. Protect yourself with insurance
If anyone is depending on you financially, you need life insurance. Term policies are generally better deals than whole life ones. You may need other insurance, too, such as renter's insurance or an umbrella policy to cover big claims against you. It's also smart to review your homeowner policy regularly, to make sure it's still covering you for an appropriate amount. And an annual call to a bunch of different home and car insurance companies can help you snag a better rate, perhaps saving hundreds of dollars a year.
7. Have critical documents drawn up
Most of us need to have several vitally important documents prepared and ready. These include a will, a power of attorney, a living will, and a health-care proxy. Hire a lawyer to help you with these and any other estate-planning matters, such as perhaps setting up a trust.
8. Get a financial checkup
Another smart thing you can do with $1,000 is to get a financial checkup. Find a good financial planner (perhaps a Certified Financial Planner, or CFP) and have them evaluate your financial condition and make recommendations. Favor fee-only advisors, whom you can find at.
9. Add new work skills or certifications
You can make yourself more valuable at your workplace and marketable in your career by adding some new skills or professional certifications to your resume -- or even a new language you've mastered.
10. Have experiences
Studies have shown that spending money on experiences instead of material things tends to deliver sense of well-being. Experiences, after all, create memories that can be savored for a long time. Traveling is a great way to rack up experiences, but you might also spend your $1,000 on music or golf lessons or on tickets to some great performances, perhaps even via season tickets.
11. Travel
The benefits of traveling are legion, as it can boost creativity, enhance appreciation of differences, help you to better understand other parts of the country or world and the people who live there. With $1,000, you might be able to visit Europe, drive cross country, enjoy a cruise, or take a scenic train ride.
12. Spiff up your home
You don't need to spend $50,000 on remodeling your home in order to enjoy it more. You may be surprised at how much you can accomplish with just $1,000. Perhaps add some kitchen backsplash tiles and new cabinet handles in your kitchen. Replace an aging appliance or two or get new porch furniture. Give one or more rooms a coat of fresh paint or get a bunch of new replacement windows. There are many possibilities.
13. Tweak your lifestyle for the better
If you've been thinking of changing your lifestyle a little for the better, $1,000 can often help. For example, you might buy a bicycle in order to bike to and from work, thereby saving money while also getting in shape. Just biking recreationally is also good.
14. Get healthier
The $1,000 can help you get healthier in other ways, too. You might hire a personal trainer for a bunch of sessions in order to kick-start a new work-out routine or join a community-supported agriculture (CSA) program for fresh locally grown produce, supporting local farmers and eating more nutritiously.
15. Give it away
Finally, a smart thing to do with $1,000 is to give it away. No matter how much you think you need it, there are millions of people who desperately need it more. Billions of people around the world, including millions in the U.S., are trying to live on just a few dollars per day. You can look up highly rated candidates for your donation(s) at sites such as CharityNavigator.org, Give.org, CharityWatch.org, and GiveWell.org.
Don't just let an extra $1,000 slip through your hands, spent in impulsive ways you hardly remember. Put a little thought in how to best spend it. Deploying your $1,000 in one or more of the ways above can enrich or improve your life -- or the lives of others.

Utility trade groups press EPA to embrace EVs in fuel standard rewrite
Dive Brief:
- Major utility trade groups joined with automakers on Tuesday to press the Environmental Protection Agency to include electric vehicles as a compliance option for fuel economy standards under review by the agency.
- Any changes to fuel standards should "extend and improve the current regulatory mechanisms that provide critical support for EVs and advanced vehicles," groups representing investor-owned utilities, co-ops and municipal utilities wrote to the agency. EPA last month opened the Obama-era fuel rules for review.
- The letter is the latest indication electric utilities are leaning into public policy fights over electric vehicles. A group of utilities joined with Tesla to sue the EPA over its fuel standard review earlier this month, and in April, utility interests blocked an anti-EV resolution at a conservative public policy forum in Michigan.
Dive Insight:
"[W]e continue to support standards that provide important flexibilities and recognize the role of EVs as a compliance solution," the Edison Electric Institute, National Rural Electric Cooperative Association and American Public Power Association wrote. "Increasing the effectiveness of these flexibilities will further encourage manufacturers to continue investment in innovative technologies that have experienced broad market adoption headwinds."
Under the Obama-era fuel standards, new light duty vehicles would need to get over 50 miles per gallon by 2025. The White House found those standards to be "technologically feasible" before Obama left office, but Pruitt's EPA withdrew that determination in April, saying past analyses were "optimistic" with respect to EV growth and technology advancement.
The administration is now reportedly circulating a proposal that would freeze fuel standards after 2020, likely prompting a fight with California, which has a legal waiver under the Clean Air Act to set stricter fuel standards.
The letter, also signed by the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers and Global Automakers Association, stresses that the groups support stricter fuel economy standards that "incorporate policies from California" and other states with stricter rules. Allowing EVs as a compliance option, they wrote, could help provide automakers flexibility to meet those standards.
"[A]vanced technologies, such as EVs, can provide key flexibilities to automakers in a way that maintains a single national program for fuel economy and GHG standards," they wrote. "Further, the [EPA] should consider reforming and improving the off-cycle credits process in a manner that allows manufacturers to efficiently access such credits."
The utility letter to EPA is the latest in sector efforts to support EVs. Earlier this month, a dozen utilities and Tesla sued the EPA, asking the D.C. Circuit Court to review the agency's decision to reopen the fuel standards.
In April, EEI and Duke Energy also blocked a policy resolution from oil-backed groups that would have prevented utilities from building out EV charging stations and discouraged states from subsidizing non-gas vehicles. The proposal came during a meeting of the American Legislative Exchange Council, a secretive group that convenes policymakers and businesses to design model legislation for state governments.
'We are extremely disappointed in these efforts to limit our ability to serve our customers," EEI spokesperson Brian Reil said at the time. "As the operators of the energy grid, electric companies play an important role in developing charging infrastructure and expanding access to electric transportation for our customers and the communities we serve."

ABAKALIKI—The Enugu state Police command, yesterday arrested, The Sun Newspaper correspondent in Ebonyi state Mr. Goddy Osuji. He was also interrogated and asked to make statement over a case between the government of Enugu state and son of late Chief Christian Onoh, Dr. Josef Onoh.
At press time, Osuji was still being drilled at the CID department of Enugu state Police headquarters, where the Sun correspondent had voluntarily submitted himself after he was served with Police invitation letter on Monday.
Sun’s South East Bureau Chief, Chidi Nnadi, who spoke with Vanguard at about 4:30pm yesterday, said he did not understand what was going on but that “it is like they are saying they will grant him bail.â€
Mr Osuji had reported to the Enugu Police command, yesterday at about 7:30am in company of many journalists, who in solidarity wanted to know what the police or Enugu state government were up to, but as the police protocols took longer time, the journalists retired to their jobs leaving Osuji with the Enugu Sun staff.
Osuji, the Sun correspondent, interviewed the young Onoh in a Sun publication of August 24, 2009 where Onoh allegedly made defamatory statements against the government of Governor Sullivan Chime and his Chief of Staff, Mrs. Ifeoma Nwobodo.
The Enugu government had detained the young Onoh in police custody for two weeks, before charging his to court, which admitted him to bail last week.
Osuji’s name was contained in the charge preferred against Onoh’s, and was alleged to have conspired with Onoh to ridicule the government of Governor Chime but was said to have been at large until Osuji appeared at the Enugu police headquarters, yesterday.
Efforts to contact the Enugu state Commissioner for Information Mr. Chuks Ugwoke, failed as he did not pick his calls but Governor Chime’s Chief Press Secretary, Mr Dan Nwome said he was not aware that the Sun correspondent was invited by the Police. “I will make contacts and get back to you,†Nwome promised at press time, yesterday

All is set for the conduct of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Ward congresses in Cross River State today.
The earlier congresses held on November 1, were cancelled by the national leadership of the party following allegations that the result of that exercise was doctored by members of the electoral panel.
The party subsequently directed that the exercise be re-conducted today.
At a meeting with the stakeholders of the party, yesterday, Chairman of the new electoral panel, Chief Chidi Egiogu, assured that the exercise would be transparent, free and fair.
Egiogu urged politicians to exhibit high level of discipline during the exercise.
“We are going to conduct this exercise in line with the electoral guidelines and following due process. I expect you to handle this election in the spirit of sportsmanship by accepting whatever will be the outcome in the interest of this great party,” he said.
Refuting insinuations that the outcome of the exercise had been pre-determined, he showed the stakeholders the electoral materials contained in a bag he hung on his neck, adding, “We will conduct this exercise with utmost transparency and give everybody a level playing field.”
In his remark, the state Chairman of the party, Mr. Ntufam John Okon, assured the panel that as one big family in Nigeria’s most hospitable and preferred destination, the state executive committee would give them the necessary cooperation to ensure a hitch free exercise.

Why I call civil servants evil servants
Chief Alani Bankole, could be easily presented as the father of the penultimate speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Dimeji Bankole. Chief Alani Bankole, 74, however, earned his name and reputation in his own right having been a leading official of the defunct National Party of Nigeria, and the party’s gubernatorial candidate in the 1979 and 1983 elections in Ogun State.
His last bid for the governorship was on the platform of the defunct National Republican Convention, NRC in 1992. Though one of the founders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, he eventually teamed with others to form the All Peoples Party, APP and became the national vice-chairman and subsequently, the acting national chairman of the party.
The Oluwo of Iporo Ake and Seriki Jagunmolu of Egbaland is also a successful businessman having been the first person to start a freight company in the West African sub-region. In this interview Bankole talks on politics then and now, the intrigues that shadowed his son’s political life among other things. Excerpts:
By Daud Olatunji
What is your view on the state of the nation?
We are making progress. This time last year, you could remember where we were, you can now see that Nigerians are more disciplined. When you have cancer of the brain, the whole body would be affected, but when you heal yourself, the whole body will be in shape. What we need most in Nigeria in my opinion is good leadership, because, people would rather do what they see you doing than do what you ask them to do.
We are in the era of asking questions. If you ask someone to eat twice a day, you would be asked as a leader, how many times do you eat? If you preach against corruption, can you justify that preaching by your actions and inactions and because of what the person of President Buhari is, people are more disciplined.
It does not mean we have got there, but we are seeing the self discipline in the change the people wanted as well as reduction in corruption.
The problem of Nigeria since we found oil has been laziness, people don’t work hard anymore because there is cheap money coming from the government.
As a politician, what do you think was responsible for the emergence of President Buhari?
It is very easy, there was no choice. People believed President Jonathan failed woefully and they needed an alternative president to change the bad and backward trend, there were only two candidates and the people chose the better. The gap was very much between them.
For me, I saw it as no competition, people had a very straightforward choice between them, not that Buhari was a fantastic choice, he’s been out of government for 30 years and there is no justification to compare him with anyone in terms of quality.
Disciplined nature
The then President was a complete failure and because of the disciplined nature of Buhari, there was no other person than him among the contestants, I even expected the gap to have been more than that.
Your view on the choice of the ministers who have just been screened, are they of quality?
I don’t want to talk about quality or not, their performance would depend on how we Nigerians criticise, take and advise them. Their friends and family should let them perform without any unnecessary pressure. We should know that being a minister is not an avenue to enrichment; it should be seen as an opportunity to serve and to improve the quality of the generality of Nigerians.
By now, people should know that making money for themselves is not beneficial to them. Most of the money is carried to foreign lands to support the economies of those of other countries. I see looters as psychiatric patients because they are doing themselves no good. If you are looting for your children, they would be worse off. The best legacy you can give to your children is good training, so, they can make money.
We make too much noise and lay too much emphasis on the ministers, our major problems are the civil servants. According to the constitution, the Permanent Secretary is the chairman of Tenders Committee which is the management team.
Seventy per cent of houses in the choice areas of Lagos State are owned by civil servants, in Abuja 60 per cent of the houses belong to the civil servants, go and make proper investigation, only few belong to the so called politicians. We should put our searchlight on the civil servants, they are pretenders, they are the real problems and in fact, I call them evil servants.
Engineering companies
If you look closely, no minister can get any money without the approval of the civil servants. When ministers are appointed, they (civil servants) would give them big money and after accepting, they bring all sorts of files for approval. They would write a lot of things whenever they want to award contracts because they know they can get dollars from the foreign companies. Why is it that we don’t have Nigerian engineering companies that can do our roads till today, they are the ones that write the recommendations.
During Murtala Muhammed/Obasanjo regime, there was a deliberate effort to encourage Nigerian contractors and certain contracts were set aside for only indigenous contractors or Nigerians operating and having their manufacturing companies in Nigeria.
Then, everyone was busy, Nigerian contractors were developing but suddenly today, we now have turnkey projects, they give the foreign people contracts, those they call specialised contractors. These people would bring electrical parts, contractors, experts from their countries and some will even bring ‘special sand’, Nigerian contractors have no job to do.
The civil servants are the ones in support of this, the minister would serve for four years, civil servants are there permanently, making these atrocities across all humanity and yet no one is looking in their direction. Our emphasis shouldn’t be on the quality of the political appointees, but what we can do to re-organise the civil service.
Why do you think your party lost the last elections?
Let me first correct you, since 2005 I have ceased to be a member of PDP. I took part in the formation of NPN, in fact I was the state Deputy-Chairman and later the governorship candidate of the party, I was in the NRC in the Third Republic, and I was among the 14 people that decided on PDP and I was among the 12 people that formed ANPP to counter PDP because we saw the PDP we formed as too big and may become a one-party system which we thought was not good for Nigeria at that level.
And when Obasanjo became the President and he also wanted to become the National chairman, I knew PDP would collapse one day because there is no way you can run the government and a party side by side. The party should be the internal watch dog of the government they install, and the moment the man who is the head of the government wants to control the party he is asking for problems for the party and for himself and that is what led to the destruction of PDP because the President was the leader of the party at the national level and the governor became the leader of the party at the state level. Who is the boss of the President? Who is the boss of the governor of the state? If the father has no more control over his children, then, what is the fruit of that family? Because we formed the party first before we started to install the government. The leadership of PDP were parading themselves as mini gods, I think God needed to tell them that all power belongs to Him and he took it from them.
What do you think was responsible for your son’s (Dimeji) alleged failure in his reported bid to contest the governorship ticket of the PDP for the last election?
My son never wanted to contest for governor. He was in school in the United States and he came home for short holiday, before then, the PDP leadership under Buruji sent an emissary to me to help them talk to Dimeji to come and contest for governorship. And when he arrived in Nigeria he told me he was not interested in being governor. I asked why? He said he did not believe in the set up in the PDP, he didn’t see anybody contesting under that party and winning. When he got to Abuja ,the then President sent for him, and he requested that he should come to Ogun State and help them re-organise the party. At that particular time, Gbenga Daniel had left the party to join Labour Party, so, my son told the then President that on the condition that the President will use his position to bring back all the people that have left including the former governor of the state, because they all left in annoyance. Then he said he will do it, then my son left.
Request of the President
The next time he came, Buruji went to his house in Abuja to go and meet him and requested that he come and lead them and contest for governor, but, my son asked him under what conditions? He said everything should be between my son and himself, that if my son agrees to be governor he will choose a deputy, six House of Representatives members; somebody I don’t want to mention will also choose two and my son will have only one. My son said no problem, let us invite other leaders and tell them what you have told me, then, I will give you an answer in another one month.
So, after my son left Abuja, the President sent for him again about their previous discussion and before my son left for his place, he called Buruji that the President has called him and he (Dimeji) thinks he (Jonathan) is going to tell me the same thing you discussed with me. Buruji said no, don’t go to the president, then, my son said I am sorry, how can you say I should not answer the request of the President.
The following day, Buruji went to court to say that my son wanted to contest for governor without going through the machinery in Ogun State and they started to attack my son. When my son came back again, the then national chairman of the party invited my son and said he wants him to be involved in Ogun State but he said he will first go round and try to talk to the aggrieved leaders to come back including Gbenga Daniel and he did that, he toured the whole state went to all the local governments inviting those who left PDP to come back. So, that was what happened and throughout, I stand to be corrected if there was anywhere my son went and asked anybody to support him to be governor.
A lot of people believed if he contested he would be governor, but, he told them that he was interested in restructuring the party. And when it was clear that Jonathan did not want to work against Buruji my son opted out. There were meetings where they even decided that if they wanted to win they should take the candidate from Ogun Central. At a particular meeting they asked the three of them to go and decide, the three of them were my son, Buruji and Gbenga Daniel. They were told that they should go and take a candidate from the Central that can win the election, but, when they got to Daniel’s house in Abuja, Daniel made it clear that he wouldn’t support Dimeji and when they went back to the presidential committee, they asked Daniel to make suggestions, he wrote; Sharafa Ishola, GNI, Dimeji Bankole. They asked Buruji, he said, GNI, GNI, GNI and he made it clear that he did not know GNI ,that it was Daniel that introduced him (GNI) to him. When they asked my son what his suggestion was, he said they were asked to pick someone from the central but GNI is not from the central so, they left the meeting.
How do you compare the way politics was played in the second republic and now?
There is no basis for comparison, the second republic politics was led by astute, experienced politicians. The major actors were Shehu Shagari, Awolowo, Azikwe who were the architects of the First Republic. The present republic is being led by the military and their apologists.
Kitchen cabinet
In 1999, governors who emerged were close to the military and to worsen it, the president that emerged was a military man, military people are trained to command and not to negotiate, they are trained to listen to orders and anyone who argues with them should be punished. Nigerians got the kind of politics they wanted by allowing Obasanjo to become the president, so, we shouldn’t complain. He made former generals like him minister of defence, National Security Adviser and Chief-of-staff which is the kitchen cabinet.
There is no basis to compare, it was a continuation of military rule from 1999 till Obasanjo left office, there was a short break of two years, but Yar’adua died trying to change things, Jonathan was put there after Yar’adua, but, you can’t give what you don’t have. During the First and Second Republic, Jonathan was either a learner or still a student and suddenly you want him to rule the country. As what? A doctor of biology or zoology, how does that relate with the way of life of any economy or any social set up?
We got what we wanted by putting Jonathan there, whoever was behind putting Jonathan there was the worst enemy of this country because like I said, you cannot give what you don’t have, he did his best. I understand he was deputy-governor later governor all within how many years? And you want him as President of the most populous African country!
To be a managing director, President or governor, your major job is to choose a team, it is not what you can do on your own. He was never a manager and you ask him to manage the best economy in Africa or second after South Africa and you are blaming him for choosing the wrong people? And this is the man we were told gets clearance from his wife if he wants to do anything. What is the background of his wife? If the wife is knowledgeable, what is the background? Buhari won because there was no other choice and I still believe we have no business with the presidential system in Nigeria. The military made sure we got the system into our political system because they see themselves coming back to be President and that is what has happened up till today, we have not been able to get out of that problem. As long as you have military president supporting himself with military people like this one is already doing, we shouldn’t compare it with the Second Republic.
