One of the things to take into consideration when buying an older boat is that while the hull itself may be in great shape, you're going to have to spend some money updating other things.
O'day 34s were constructed with two large iceboxes in the galley.
Sometime in Gimme Shelter's past a previous owner converted the aft icebox into a refrigerator with an Adler/Barbour Cold Machine.
It wasn't a terrible installation. They mounted to compressor in the lazarette and used the correct size wires run directly to the house batteries with its own breaker switch.
However, they mounted the evaporator very high in the icebox, so that there was no space to add any insulation to the icebox lid. This creates moisture and sweat on the counter, which in turn rots out the plywood icebox lids.
Last year I constructed a new lid, which I sealed with epoxy to hopefully stop the rotting. I also added a layer of neoprene on the bottom of it in hopes of improving the efficiency of the refrigerator.
It was only a matter of months before the cold and moisture destroyed the glue holding the neoprene onto the bottom. In the winter we still had ice forming on the counter. In the summer we still had a damp counter.
To make matters worse, during the heat of the summer, the battery charger couldn't keep up with the refrigerator's draw on the house batteries. We started having to turn off the refrigerator when we left the boat because without the air-conditioner running to keep the ambient temperature lower in the cabin, the refrigerator would run non-stop and run the batteries flat.
We knew we had to do something, but when you're a frugal boater (aka cheap), it's hard to spend money re-working something that already functions enough to get you by.
Well, last week we arrived to the boat and flipped on the refrigerator breaker only to get no response. It was dead as a doorknob.
In fact, I went scrounging through the folder of old receipts and manuals presented to us by the previous owner, and it turns out our refrigerator dates back to around 1985 — at least, that's the copyright on the installation instructions.
Adler/Barbour is also now owned by Waeco, part of the Dometic Group, instead of IMI.
While Andy's troubleshooting showed that it's probably the control unit that has gone bad, the four-pin control unit is no longer made. However, you can allegedly use a Frigoboat controller unit as a replacement. That's a $285 non-refundable gamble I'm not will to make on a 30-year-old system that already had some fundamental problems.
Since the thermostat and evaporator seemed fine, our next option was to just replace the compressor/condendor unit. Unfortunately, our system is still running R12 freon, so I'm not sure how the evaporator would react if we hooked a new R134a compressor up to it. Not to mention the fact that Adler/Barbour has changed the connections on their lines sometime in the past three decades, and we'd have to pay an additional $199 for the adapter kit.
Seriously, how are those two short copper tubes worth $199?!!!
It looks like we're going to have to negate our membership in the Adler/Barbour Historical Preservation Society and rip the old refrigerator out next weekend.
Right now we're leaning towards this Isotherm Refrigeration Kit, which uses the same Danfoss compressor but is a couple hundred dollars cheaper than the Adler/Barbour system.
And most importantly, I'm going to install the evaporator in a spot that allows for a very well-insulated lid.
Try Rich. He's a friend of mine and actually lives on his boat. If you were at the boat show, you might have seen that he has ice cream AND cold drinks in his refrig at the same time. It's a great unit that many old systems are still running.
We'll look into it as we haven't actually purchased anything yet, but the Isotherm holding plate systems have really bad reviews.
I replaced our Cold Machine about a year ago. I found one online for alot cheaper than anywhere else.
Also have the old parts, if you can use them.
Do you have a working 4-pin control board?

Fashion designer Reem Acra is selling her 3,200-square-foot spread in the Chelsea Atelier at 245 Seventh Avenue, Luxury Listings reports. The Lebanese-born designer, who made news for having created First Lady Melania Trump's inauguration-eve dinner gown, purchased two apartments in the building nearly two decades ago. The sprawling, loft-like space, asking $5.5 million, features dramatic art on the walls and ceilings including a wall-sized photo featuring a model wearing one of the designer's wedding dresses that was used in an ad campaign.


Late last year, I was invited to participate in a workshop hosted by my Alma Mater, ASU's School of Sustainability (SOS). The workshop brought together people who had, in various ways, proven their chops as sustainability professionals and 'change agents,' and our goal was to bring our collective expertise and brainpower to bear on a simple question: What does it take to 'do' sustainability? And how can we educate people to do it well?
The results were released this week, and they are worth checking out if you are interested in building sustainability into your professional career (extra points to anyone who can spot my head in one of the pictures). The results confirmed the effectiveness and importance of a sustainability education, but they also highlighted its biggest limitation: no one is willing to pay sustainability practitioners to do what they've been trained to do.
The hard-won working definition of sustainability. The concept is nebulous, but the skills required to achieve it are actually pretty concrete.
On one hand, the results confirmed that the educational paradigm under which ASU's School of Sustainability operates is valid. The learning outcomes that they pursue–systems, futures, values, and strategic thinking, as well as interpersonal skills–are, in fact, the necessary skills for doing transformative sustainability work. There was some debate about which were more important than others, and whether it was possible to use one skill without necessarily invoking the others, but everyone agreed that the literature was accurate: these are the necessary skills. This is good news, since anything that helps us pin down sustainability into a universally understood concept benefits both the discipline and its practitioners. It's important to be able to explain what 'doing' sustainability entails.
But, on the other hand, "while there was a clear consensus on the importance of the key competencies in the success of a graduate as a change agent, there was little agreement that it would sufficiently support their employability." This comes as no great surprise to SOS's alumni, who, almost in our entirety, are employed in jobs that are (at best) only tangentially about doing sustainability. This unfortunate fact is the inexhaustible subject of our gripes when we meet at the bar, the content of many of our interactions with our alma mater, and the cause of our innumerable existential crises. Still, it was nice to see our plight confirmed in an actual publication.
But beyond being existentially frustrating, our unemployability is also profoundly annoying, as our services are more in demand than ever. Most companies and countries at least play lip service to sustainability, both by using the word itself and by invoking sustainability's goals (economic stability, social justice, and environmental conservation); and an increasingly large number or organizations do take sustainability seriously as a core function of their operations. Yet, so-called 'sustainability' positions are mostly occupied by people who are not trained sustainability professionals. Part of this is simply the novelty of the discipline (sustainability programs have only been around for a decade or so), but organizations also tend to internally promote people to sustainability positions rather than hire new talent. They don't seem to understand the main idea behind the workshop: that sustainability is a distinct discipline that requires a unique skillset. We sustainability people can't help but see internal promotions as misguided – it's as if these organizations realized they needed an engineer, and then promoted someone from the HR department into the position. Of course the job isn't being done right – the people doing it don't have the training.
The process model for doing sustainability, intertwined with the 5 competencies.
It's not that no one ever gets hired to do sustainability. But those of us lucky enough to find 'sustainability' jobs often discover a profound disconnect between what the job actually entails and what, given their training, they feel should be done. It's a common story to hear that someone in a 'sustainability' position is constrained to simply increasing plant efficiency, or working with the PR department to greenwash the company. Or–joy oh joy!–overseeing the office recycling program. Sometimes these limited positions even come with a decent paycheck and a fancy title–but rarely do they come with job fulfillment. These sorts of positions often result in an impossible choice: advance in your career and pursue sustainability in a superficial and ineffective way, or advocate for doing sustainability right and risk your position.
The workshop and the corresponding report allude to a fundamental tension that every sustainability professional must learn to navigate. I call it the 'hippie effect:' the fact that many people seem to imagine that a sustainability degree involves sitting in a circle, holding hands, and singing John Lennon's 'Imagine' for 4 years. What they don't realize is that sustainability is an intellectually rigorous and conceptually demanding discipline that requires both a mental dynamism in order to navigate its transdisciplinary character and a creative flair in order to envision solutions. It's a challenging field to play in, indicated by the fact that SOS has the highest admission requirements of any undergraduate program at ASU. Comparable programs at Duke, Columbia, and in Europe at Lund and Leuphana have similar curriculum and entry requirements.
The sheer amount of cheesy clip art infesting 'sustainability' pages probably doesn't help our image as a serious professional discipline.
Like, what does this even mean?
Our difficulties in communicating the rigour and depth of our sustainability training are exacerbated by the 'tyranny of the drop-down menu.' The problem here is trying to explain what it is we do using the functional categories that the job market has divided itself into. Many job boards and online applications have a drop-down menu titled "Functional Area," or "Area of Experience," which includes options such as 'Finance,' 'Marketing,' 'Management,' 'IT,' 'Accounting,' etc… but not sustainability. Sustainability, when done right, incorporates all of the functional areas in a holistic planning process; the best response to 'Functional Area' is simultaneously "all of the above" and "other." Sustainability done right must be a distinct function within an organization, but one that is intertwined with every other functional area as well – a sustainability professional who ends up siloed in a single department has his or her hands tied. Sustainability is a new category of job function, and simply doesn't fit into any of the traditional departments. I can say from experience that this is an incredibly difficult concept to try and explain to employers, especially those from larger organizations.
After an aspiring sustainability professional fails a few times to communicate what they do, a question starts to haunt the back corners of their minds: am I doing this wrong? Since my training isn't getting me employed, can I even credibly claim that I know what I'm doing? SOS's workshop results offer a kind of bittersweet validation: we're doing it right, but the job market just isn't ready for us, yet. So we might be vindicated, but we're still unemployed.
Many of us, myself included, have decided that the best way forward is to disguise ourselves behind another discipline. For me, its management: employers may not know what to think of a Bachelors in Sustainability, but a Master's in Global Affairs and Management is much easier to grasp. I know many people who have Urban Planning of Supply Chain Management degrees for the same reason. We will always be, at our core, sustainability professionals. But if we must play another part in order to do our work, then so be it.
But we can hope that one day, the job market will recognize someone with a sustainability degree as a specialized and trained professional who can perform a vital and unique function within an organization. Hopefully one day people will be able to say with pride that they do sustainability, and be hired on that alone. But we're not there yet.

S. Korean business leaders likely to visit N. Korea
SEOUL, Sept. 10 (Yonhap) — South Korea business executives are expected to accompany President Moon Jae-in on a trip to Pyongyang next week to explore potential deals going forward, corporate sources said Monday.
South Korean President Moon Jae-in is scheduled to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Pyongyang from Sept. 18-20. The two have already met twice this year, leading to eased tensions on the Korean Peninsula.
Moon's chief of staff Im Jong-seok urged business leaders to join Moon's trip to the North. Im currently heads the summit preparation committee.
Leaders of top conglomerates such as Samsung Electronics Co., Hyundai Motor Co., SK Group and LG Group traveled to Pyongyang in June 2000 and October 2007, when Moon's two predecessors held summits with Kim's late father, Kim Jong-il.
In this photo taken on Oct. 23, 2007, Hyundai Motor Chairman Chung Mong-koo (R), Samsung Electronics CEO Yun Jong-yong (C) and Hyundai Group Chairwoman Hyun Jeong-eun talk to each other in a meeting held at Cheong Wa Dae to prepare for an inter-Korean summit. (Yonhap)

Okay, it has been a much longer hiatus than I planned; I'm finally ready to get back to writing things people don't read!
Life has been a bit overwhelming for me lately, there is the issue with my unborn daughter (Turner Syndrome) which my wife has written about over the last couple of months and I will address myself in the coming weeks, as well as other issues at home and work – but all that other stuff is a real downer and uninteresting.
I am not doing a giveaway this month, but will start back with that in July – I have some fun ones for you (at least I think their fun, and if you don't I'd recommend not trying to win them).
I am going to be less ambitious with blogging this go around; previously I set high expectations for myself and constantly failed to achieve my stated goals. This is something I'm tired of doing, not just with the blog but in life in general. I am still a firm believer in high standards (in all parts of life), knowing what you need and want, and not compromising or settling for a dissatisfactory resolution; I am also becoming more aware of my own limits and the need to set realistic goals, which can be done without lessing quality or betraying my ideals.
I purposely did not set a picture for this post.
Thank you for all those who have taken the time to read this, other posts on this blog, and connect with me on social media.
Now, I've got a dance recital to watch of two of my favoritest people in the whole wide everything everywhere of all time.

Volvo XC90 Recall, Ford F-150 Vs. Ram 1500, Tesla Updates: What's New @ The Car Connection
Viknesh Vijayenthiran Editor
From The Car Connection:
Deliveries Halted On 2016 Volvo XC90 Due To Airbag Issue
Volvo Cars is preparing a recall for the 2016 Volvo XC90 crossover utility vehicle, for an issue that may prevent the side curtain airbags from functioning as intended.
Ford F-150 Vs. Ram 1500: Compare Trucks
It's a golden age of pickup trucks. From fuel economy to crash safety, trucks have never done a better job of doubling as passenger cars. Likewise, with tow and payload ratings at all-time highs, today's light-duty, full-size trucks are the brute-strength equivalents of yesterday's heavy-duty pickups.
OnStar Is Vulnerable To Hackers, Too: Here's What You Can Do To Protect Your Car
A couple of weeks ago, two hackers made headlines when they wreaked havoc on a Jeep Grand Cherokee by exploiting a weakness in the vehicle's Uconnect telematics system. (Jeep's parent company, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, subsequently issued a recall to patch the security hole.)
From Motor Authority:
Tesla Model X Deliveries Start September, Model 3 Design To Be Shown Early 2016
Tesla has released a bundle of information about its future plans in a letter to shareholders outlining its second quarter financial results. In the letter, CEO Elon Musk revealed that production of the Model S reached a new record of 12,807 cars, and that deliveries for the quarter also reached a new record of 11,532 cars. This makes the Model S the most popular electric car in the country at present.
2016 Volkswagen Touareg Gets Price Reduction, Drops Hybrid Option
Volkswagen will start production of a new mid-size SUV with third-row seats in 2016 at its plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, but the automaker won't be discontinuing the two-row Touareg anytime soon. For the coming 2016 model year, VW is enticing Touareg buyers with a price reduction.
2017 Porsche Boxster Spy Shots And Video
The current Boxster was all-new for the 2013 model year so in Porsche tradition we should see the car receive a mid-cycle facelift for the 2017 model year. Today we have new spy shots of a prototype for the facelifted car plus a video.
From Green Car Reports:
2016 Audi A3 e-Tron Plug-In Hybrid Priced From $37,900
The 2016 Audi A3 e-tron plug-in hybrid will start at $38,825 when it goes on sale in the U.S. this fall. That price includes a $925 destination charge, but does not include any applicable Federal, state, or local incentives that may reduce the effective final cost of the car.
Tesla Model S Hacked In Low-Speed Driving; Patch Issued, Details Tomorrow
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has come under intense public scrutiny after a pair of hackers took control of a Jeep Cherokee remotely through its Uconnect infotainment system and disabled certain features, including its brakes and transmission. Now, it's Tesla's turn.
California Air Resources Board Head: All New Cars Should Be Zero-Emission In 2030
Among U.S. states, California is by far the most enthusiastic when it comes to electric cars. And that's largely due to regulations overseen by the state's Air Resources Board.

The first step involves capturing the kit with Fiddler. Then activate the AutoResponder feature as shown in Figure 2. Next drag the sessions corresponding the kit traffic in the AutoResponder panel. In this example this is the first session.
Next edit the session, you can use the context menu or just press Enter.
Now I want to modify the script to be able to see the unpacked code so I open the Syntax View tab. This part is different from one pack to another and you might need multiple attempts to figure out the best way to do it. In this example the pack is Blackhole, there is an eval statement at the end very end that executes the script after it is unpacked.I use console.log to get the content, so I replace w(c) by console.log(c) and hit Save.
Next I open Google Chrome (make sure it is configured to use Fiddle as a proxy), open the Developer Console with F12 and click on the Console tab. I then browse to the pack URL, in this example http://energirans.net/main.php?page=598991e7306ac07e (you can use Ctrl+U to copy the URL from a session). If all went well the unpacked code should appear in the logs.
Another neat feature of Fiddler is the code beautifier. I copy the script from the log, replace the original script in the SyntaxView and click on Format Script/JSON. The code is now well formatted and ready for analysis.You can find the unpacked code here. Note that this is an old version of Blackhole v1 from February 2012 but the technique still works today.
This is a quick and dirty technique and could easily be defeated but it works with many packs. If you have any question leave a comment or email me at ekse.0x@gmail.com.


Again, boat rides and any form of transport involving westerners is heavily regulated and accordingly price hiked. We booked a boat over to Lombok and van ride down the coast to the resort town of Sengiggi for 300k for the four of us. Before we even landed on the beach on Lombok the taxi bandits were wading into the ocean looking to snag an unwary tourist. Our accommodation at the Joje Resort was right on the black sand beach so I fell into a huge beanbag and had a coffee while we waited for the rooms. After the fracas at the last hotel we've started booking two rooms now so the kids get their own, it works out almost the same as booking a larger room with an extra bed.
Sengiggi is similar to Candidasa, a main strip of tourist restaurants, a couple of bars and a few souvenir shops. There was nowhere you could buy beer outside of restaurants or bars where it is pretty expensive at 40k per bottle plus service charge and tax, the Indo equivalent of Seven-Eleven doesn't sell it.
It was bike time the following day, since the northern part of the island rains every day, we decided to head south to Kuta and the beaches. By the time we'd got round Mataram and were half way to the airport we knew we would not make it there and back before nightfall, distances on Lombok are just as deceptive as they were on Bali. We decided to head back and got thoroughly soaked by the daily downpour in the process. Over 90% of the Muslim population of Lombok are farmers, and by the looks of the countryside their product is rice – sodden paddies stretch as far as the eye can see and buffalo is still the man's machine here.
Each morning on our beach we had the fishing show where an entire family (or two) would spend an hour or more hauling in a huge net for their daily feed as there certainly were not enough fish in the catch to sell at local markets.
The sensible choice the next day was four wheels instead of two so another Toyota Avanza was in order seeing as they seem to be the car of choice in Indonesia and rental rates here are half the price of Thailand. We were heading north around the rugged Lombok coast to a spectacular waterfall on the northern face of Mount Rinjani. Our route took us through tiny ramshackle villages, switchback mountain roads, monkey encampments, and deserted beach roads, driving on Lombok, with a fraction of the traffic, was a pleasure compared to rat-run on Bali.
We had to stop and ask directions a couple of times since very little is signposted in Indonesia but eventually made it to Senaru, the ranger station and base camp for Rinjani. As with nearly everything in this country there was an entrance fee and we had to take a local guide at a cost of 50k each down the steep valley to the falls. The first one was an impressive height but it was shadowed by the second waterfall a couple of kilometers down a jungle trail and across a couple of streams. A huge cascade around 200 meters high enveloped the entire area in spray making shooting photos somewhat tricky.
Back up top we had a bite to each ('nasi goreng' again) at a local warung overlooking the valley and ocean. Two hours later we were winding our way back down the coast road to Sengiggi for our final night before onward travel the following day.

Walk-in Clinics for a Booster Vaccine for anyone aged 40 and over this week at Roscommon Vaccination Centre
The following walk-in clinics are taking place in the Roscommon Vaccination Centre this week for anyone aged 40 and over who is eligible for a booster vaccine. There is no appointment needed.
Roscommon Vaccination Centre, Golf Links Road, F42 YX65
Monday 20 December until 7.30pm
Tuesday 21 December – 3.30pm to 7.30pm
Wednesday 22 December – 2.30pm to 7.30pm
Thursday 23 December – 2.30pm to 7.30pm
Friday 24 December – 8.30am to 12.30pm
To be eligible for a booster vaccine, you must have reached the interval of at least 90 days since your second dose vaccine or single dose Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) vaccine before coming to a walk-in clinic.
Anyone who has had COVID-19 since their previous vaccination should wait to get their booster dose at least 6 months after the positive test result.
It is difficult to anticipate how many people will arrive at the same time to a walk-in clinic and people may have to queue. There is updated information on queue times available from the HSE Twitter feed @HSELive.
The vaccination centre will be closed on 25 and 26 December and will re-open on 27 December. Details of the walk-in clinics next week will be available from hse.ie later this week. The dates and times of the vaccination clinics are updated regularly with new dates and times added.
Scheduled Appointments
The vaccination centre is also running scheduled appointment clinics and anyone who receives an invitation by text is asked to come to the appointment if possible or reply to the text message to reschedule. There is a separate queue for people with scheduled appointments and this queue is prioritised.
Pharmacies offering Booster Vaccines
People who are aged 40 and older who are eligible for a booster dose and have reached the interval of 90 days since their second dose (or since their single dose Janssen vaccine) may also get their booster vaccine by booking an appointment with a participating pharmacy. The details of participating pharmacies are available on hse.ie.

Saying Good-bye to Two Georgia Giants
Christy Simo
Georgia lost two men this week whose important contributions to the state will continue to be felt for decades to come. Businessman Herman Russell passed away Saturday, Nov. 15. He was 83. Former Gov. Carl Sanders died Sunday, Nov. 16. He was 89.
A lifelong Atlantan, businessman, philanthropist and Civil Rights leader Herman Russell turned a small plastering firm into one of the most successful African-American-owned real estate development and construction companies in the country, breaking racial and economic barriers along the way. H.J. Russell & Co. is responsible for much of the city's skyline, from the Georgia-Pacific headquarters to the Georgia Dome. The company is also a partner in the joint venture to build the $1.3-billion Atlanta Falcons stadium currently under construction. Russell was also the owner of airport food and beverage concessions operator Concessions International and Paschal's Restaurant in Atlanta.
In the 1960s, Russell worked behind the scenes during the Civil Rights Movement. "I used to have lots of meetings in my home, strategy meetings when the kids were sitting in," Russell told Georgia Trend in 2013, when he was selected as a Georgia Trustee by the Georgia Historical Society. "My role was not to participate but to bond kids out of jail when they got arrested, because I owned real estate. At one time or another, I bonded hundreds of people out of jail."
A close friend of Martin Luther King Jr., he was instrumental in helping secure Dr. King's papers for the city of Atlanta. A noted philanthropist, he also donated to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Georgia State University, Tuskegee University and Morehouse College.
"I had the pleasure of interviewing Herman Russell for Georgia Trend two years ago when he was named one of the Georgia Trustees. He was gracious and inspirational," recalls Georgia Trend Editor-At-Large Susan Percy. "He led an extraordinary life. He is one of those people who should have gone on forever."
Carl Sanders was elected governor in 1962. At age 37,Sanders was the youngest governor and served the state through some of the most tumultuous years in our history. In Sanders' day, the governor wielded much more power than state leaders today. The consolidation of power in one man's hands allowed the moderate Democrat to accomplish more in his four years in office – he couldn't succeed himself in those days – than any state leader since.
Sanders is responsible for the network of our state's junior colleges, he oversaw legislation to create a rapid-transit system in Atlanta, he brought the Braves and Falcons to town, he integrated the state Capital and made great strides in improving our public education system – the list goes on and on. To pay for his priorities, he instituted luxury taxes that filled the state's coffers to overflowing, leaving behind the largest surplus to date.
After serving as governor, he never again held public office. Instead he turned his attention to the practice of law as founder of the Atlanta law firm that is known today as Troutman Sanders. The firm Sanders led until 1993 has grown to more than 600 attorneys, with offices across the U.S. and in Asia.
Georgia Trend joins the families of these men and the entire state in mourning the loss of two who gave so much to the people of Georgia.

RCL INVESTOR FILING DEADLINE: Bernstein Liebhard Reminds Investors of the Deadline to File a Lead Plaintiff Motion in a Securities Class Action Lawsuit Against Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.
2020-11-25 14:17 ET - News Release
NEW YORK, Nov. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Bernstein Liebhard, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in a securities class action that has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased or acquired the securities of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. ("Royal Caribbean" or the "Company") (NYSE: RCL) between February 4, 2020 and March 17, 2020 (the "Class Period"). The lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
If you purchased Royal Caribbean securities, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options please visit Royal Caribbean Shareholder Lawsuit or contact Matthew E. Guarnero toll free at (877) 779-1414 or MGuarnero@bernlieb.com.
The complaint alleges that the Defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's decrease in bookings outside China and its inadequate policies and procedures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 on its ships. Specifically, regarding global bookings, Royal Caribbean made statements that: (1) misled investors to believe that any issue related to COVID-19 was relatively insignificant; (2) falsely assured investors that bookings outside China were strong with no signs of a slowdown; and (3) failed to disclose that the Company was experiencing material declines in bookings globally due to customer concerns over COVID-19. Additionally, regarding safety procedures, the Company made statements that: (1) falsely assured investors that it implemented rigorous safety protocols; (2) such protocols were expected to ultimately contain the spread of the virus; and (3) failed to disclose that its ships were following grossly inadequate protocols that would foster the spread of COVID-19 and pose a substantial risk to passengers and crews.
The full impact of the Company's false and misleading statements and/or omissions was revealed, as analysts downgraded the Company's stock and slashed their price targets, reflecting the true value of Royal Caribbean stock. On March 18, 2020, prior to the opening of the stock market, Stifel cut its one-year price target on Royal Caribbean from $161 to $40
On this news, Royal Caribbean's stock price dropped $5.33 per share, or 19.27% to close at $22.33 per share on March 18, 2020.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 7, 2020. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn't require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.
If you purchased Royal Caribbean securities, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options please visit https://www.bernlieb.com/cases/royalcaribbeancruisesltd-rcl shareholder-class-action-lawsuit-fraud-323/apply/ contact Matthew E.

Want to know more about GIS?
What is GIS is all about?
Where is the GIS Industry is heading to?
GIS Day event is hosted by GIS People (http://www.gispeople.com.au/), an IMIA member based in Australia. In 2013, GIS People hosted the largest Australia GIS Day event.


I think we would all agree that CTP Teams is progressing quite nicely indeed. It is great to be part of a program where we can watch people grow and develop and see new leaders emerge.
It is also great to share the ups (and the downs) of the community and all help each other to become more successful.
CTP Teams also represents a great opportunity for other TE owners with the Daily Challenges which have proved to be immensely popular with…well everybody really.
"One of the biggest companies in the industry and arguably the most successful, has give an owner an opportunity to host a Daily Challenge with CTP Teams. The cost, $50.. for the day, the benefit, more traffic than your site has seen in months. Imagine 52 teams, most with 25 members in them, surfing your site for the goal of reaching 1000 pages for the day….
It is a really good, well-reasoned and well thought-out article so I suggest, if you have not already done so, you check it out on the Lucky 13 blog.
Oh and while you are doing so you can find out why Scott specifically mentions Walter Mulder and Sunny Suggs.
Scott Wright often speaks wisdom in an around the community, and sometimes even on his on sports program. WTG Scott.
Yes, love the team blogs!
You're quite right–CTP Teams is a great opportunity for TE owners. I've joined and surfed some sites that I had not surfed before, as well as upgraded in some sites that are frequent sponsors of mines/keys.
Of course, I did not upgrade just to get XP–that would be a foolish business decision. Rather, it was by frequent exposure to the TE that I was able to see that it was a site that I want to go to regularly, thus making an upgrade a worthwhile investment.
The other thing that is happening is an awareness level of TE's that have not been used by individual surfers. They then join them and decide if it is one they like to surf and why they like it. On that note, maybe there should be "suggestion boxes" at the TE's to send notes to the owners about what they like about the TE. (Or…. vica versa) LOL.
The team blogs share some amazing insight.
Excellent blog post Scott! Owner or not the CTP Daily Challenge, the Silver and Gold Key sites along with the Sub Game Mines sites is the place to be.
wtg Scott and like blogs very much myself.
Yahoo! Scott always has good things to say. This is no exception.
I would note that Lucky 13 has fresh content every day.
Well said, and some great points in the blog post.
If I had a TE, I would not hesitate – BOOK IT!
Great Scott. I mean post Scott. I read the whole article and you are spot on with all you say. I lost money that day because of a comma. My ppal email had a comma instead of a period in it.
So, word of advice, check and recheck all that you write; it could cost you.
And Kudos to Sunny and Walter for spending time with the people! my next investment is in a chat space so I can talk to folks too.
Fantastic! I love that we have Kris writing for The Strays. Blogging is great :D.
Great team and post thanks for the recognition of our members. I love team Lucky13, and everyone on the team. They are a collaboration of great minds and I feel blessed to be a part of it.
Thanks to you and all of those that commented here for the kind words, it is greatly appreciated.
As most of you that know me understand, I tell it like it is, I don't pull any punches, and for the last two months all I have seen from participating in the Daily Challenges and all of the other hunts related to CTP Teams, there has been a lot of camaraderie amongst the teams and a lot of new friends have been gained.
However, as I stated in my post that along with all of the good I have seen, there have been a few owners out there that have underestimated what the power of TimTech can do for their site and their traffic. They have not been ready, and it appears that a couple felt the DC could run on auto pilot without any supervision. That make is it appear to those of us that surf on a regular basis that they either don't care about their business or they just aren't all in like other owners.
Along with Sunny and Walter, I have also seen owners like Robert Arnold and the Showbiz gals Lisa and Chris that have taken the ball and ran with it. Once again the only advice I can give to owners is to not only take advantage of the unique and awesome opportunity that is the Daily Challenge, but also be ready for what comes with it. High traffic, increased sales, and most of all, exposure of your business to a large number of new surfers!
He points out the importance of not only implementing the tools available to TE owners, but actually using them to the utmost advantage.
This concept also applies to the TE community as well (who are also trying to promote their online business)…USE the tools that are available to you.

Legislative Poll Canceled After Vaping Rule Withdrawn
Tuesday, August 18, 2020/Categories: Legislative Branch/Tags:
A legislative poll on a proposed agency rule banning flavored vaping products has been canceled after the Department of Public Health and Human Services formally withdrew the rulemaking proposal on Aug. 18.
The Children, Families, Health, and Human Services Interim Committee was slated to carry out the poll after 20 legislators notified the committee in late July that they objected to the rule. State law requires a poll of the Legislature if 20 lawmakers object to a proposed rule.
Committee members met on Aug. 12 to review the polling process and take public comment. Rep. Eric Moore, presiding officer of the committee, then set an Aug. 17 date for mailing of the poll and a Sept. 8 postmark date for returning ballots. However, he delayed mailing of the poll on Aug. 14 after DPHHS notified the committee that it planned to withdraw the rule.
On Tuesday, Moore and Sen. Diane Sands, vice presiding officer, determined that the department's formal withdrawal of the rule made the poll moot. They noted the poll "would have no effect under 2-4-404, MCA, which provides that the results of a legislative poll are admissible in litigation involving the validity of a proposed rule or adopted rule."
As a result, they determined that the committee would not take further action and the poll would not be sent to legislators.
DPHHS proposed the rule on June 26, citing a state law that allows the agency to adopt rules regarding "the reporting and control of communicable diseases and other conditions of public health importance." The proposed rule said the ban was needed because youth vaping "presents a condition of public health importance in Montana because it exposes youth to numerous adverse health effects."
More information related to the rule and the poll is available on the committee's web, www.leg.mt.gov/cfhhs, under the "Legislative Poll: MAR Notice No. 37-923" link on the home page.

Report concludes Priest's death "could not have been predicted".
A report by Healthcare Inspectorate Wales (HIW) into a homicide committed by a man with paranoid schizophrenia has concluded that the incident "could not have been predicted".
The report, which was published today, was ordered by the Welsh Assembly Government following an attack on Father Paul Bennett by Geraint Evans outside the vicarage at St Fagan's Church, Trecynon, Aberdare in March 2007. Until his arrest Mr Evans – who following a Crown Court hearing in October 2007 is being detained indefinitely at a high security psychiatric unit – had never been under the care of psychiatric services.
The main findings of the reports are as follows:
• The death of Father Paul could not have been predicted. However, had Mr Evans received a full psychiatric assessment following a self-harm incident in July 2006, a diagnosis of psychosis could have been made and appropriate treatment initiated. Had he received such treatment over a period of time and responded adequately, the risk of his committing an act of violence or homicide might have been reduced.
• Mr Evans' mental state was never fully known to any medical services.
• A 40 minute delay in relation to the Psychiatric Liaison Team being able to see Mr Evans following an A&E attendance for self-harm in July 2006 resulted in Mr Evans walking out of the department before a formal mental health assessment could be carried out.
• No follow up attempt was made by the Psychiatric Liaison Team in July 2006 to pursue assessment once Mr Evans was found to be back at his home in Trecynon and there was a lack of any attempt by the Psychiatric Liaison Team to alert community mental health teams or the GP of Mr Evans' situation.
• There was ambiguity regarding the level of concern communicated by the A&E department to the Psychiatric Liaison Team following the July 2006 attendance due to the lack of a detailed record being available.
• There was a failure of services, while Mr Evans was a child and adolescent, to proactively engage Mr Evans and his family and provide long-term planning for the care and support of Mr Evans based on comprehensive assessment and analysis of risks and support needs. Little support was offered by local authorities to Mr Evans' mother despite her requests.
Four recommendations were set out in the report including, in relation to attendances at A&E, that "Health Boards should ensure patient records are reviewed thoroughly at every attendance so as to highlight any developing concerns that may emerge in light of past attendances."
Commenting on the report's findings Hafal Chief Executive Bill Walden-Jones said: "With hindsight there are a number of lessons to be learned which could reduce the risk of such a tragedy happening in future. The key problem in our view was the failure to follow up on Mr Evans after he attended A&E having cut himself very severely. Even though he did not necessarily display a risk of harm to others at this point, the public would nevertheless expect this incident to have been followed up because of fears for the safety of Mr Evans."
Chief Executive of Health Inspectorate Wales, Dr Peter Higson, said: "The death of Father Paul has had a significant impact on his family and on the local community. It is clear that Mr Evans' mental health problems had gone undiagnosed and untreated for some time. While the homicide of Father Paul could not have been predicted, had Mr Evans received appropriate care and treatment the risk of him committing an act of violence or homicide might have been reduced."

ImaginAb to Present at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting 2019
LOS ANGELES, CA, April 2, 2019 – ImaginAb Inc., a clinical stage immuno-oncology imaging company, today announces its Founder and Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Anna Wu, Ph.D. is scheduled to present at this year's American Association of Cancer Research Annual Meeting (AACR). Dr. Wu will speak on Tuesday, April 2, 2019, during the session on Molecular Imaging for Cancer Immunotherapy.
American Association of Cancer Research (AACR)
March 29 – April 2, 2019, Georgia World Conference Center, Atlanta, Georgia
Founder and Chief Scientific Advisor of ImaginAb, Dr. Anna Wu, Ph.D., will speak on 'ImmunoPET for visualization of T cell responses in immunotherapy' during the following session:
ADT01. Molecular Imaging for Cancer Immunotherapy
Tuesday, April 2, 2019, 1:00 pm – 2:45 pm EDT, Room A411
Modulation of immune responses has now become a routine treatment option in cancer therapy. In spite of the huge success, a significant fraction of patients does not respond or develop resistance to therapy. To improve therapy outcomes, extensive efforts are focused on the development of tissue- and blood-based biomarkers that could enable patient selection. In addition to tumor and immune cell heterogeneity, activity of therapeutic agents at the disease site is critical for the success of therapy. Few studies have defined the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of immune checkpoint therapeutics at the disease site, and fewer have studied those parameters in real time and noninvasively. This session will focus on the novel tools and technologies, including Novel PET Tracers that enable real-time assessment of PK/PD of immune checkpoint therapeutics at the tumor that can be used in preclinical and clinical studies.
Anna M. Wu, Ph.D., is professor and chair of the Department of Molecular Imaging and Therapy, and co-director, Center for Theranostics within the Diabetes Metabolism Research Institute and professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at City of Hope in Duarte, CA.

PRESIDENTIAL spokesperson George Charamba Wednesday hinted unwell Vice President Constantino Chiwenga could be battling serious ailment telling state media the one time top soldier was developing stomach acids that were "very bad".
But in interviews with state media, Charamba revealed Wednesday one of the country's most powerful men would be away from his duties for a while as he nurses a recurrent health problem.
"The VP had developed acids in his stomach that were reaching the small intestines. It was very bad. I think his system was producing too much of hyaluronic acid in the stomach," Charamba said.
"Ordinarily, you would need it as the first line of defence against bacteria, but in his case I think secretion of acid was just too excessive to the extent that it was starting to attack stomach linings.
Earlier during the week, Charamba told the media the country's second in charge had chosen to defer treatment for the life threatening condition because he wanted to be physically involved in campaigns for the July 30 elections.
At the time, Chiwenga was not running for any particular seat as his job as VP was almost sealed by his brave step to mastermind former President Robert Mugabe's November ouster in place of his then deputy, Mnangagwa.

Římskokatolická farnost Paračov je zaniklým územním společenstvím římských katolíků v rámci strakonického vikariátu Českobudějovické diecéze.

O farnosti

Historie

According to the ancient beliefs, Physiognomy plays a vital role in predictions based on different personal characteristics which are the cornerstone of human evolution. Good physiognomic characteristics are seen as the key to success in life. In addition, latent beliefs in predictions also indicate individuals' spiritual anchors and social behavior which reflect their thoughts and understanding, recognition in society, and what will positively or negatively affect an individual person. This study aimed to investigate beliefs related to individuals' characteristics revealed by their facial parts based on Phlu Luang's edition of Physiognomy textbook. The study was performed through literature reviews and presentation of descriptive analysis results. The findings showed that, according to Phlu Luang's edition of Physiognomy textbook, there were diverse beliefs made from observing how facial parts are related to different forms of fortune telling by considering 2 belief criteria: auspicious and inauspicious beliefs. Auspicious beliefs encompassed beliefs associated with 1) wealth, 2) job stability, 3) longevity, 4) power, fortune, and happiness, 5) intelligence and cleverness, 6) having a life partner, and 7) being an honorable person. Inauspicious beliefs comprised beliefs associated with 1) poverty, 2) hindrances and occupational downgrading, 3) shortened life expectancy, 4) foolishness, 5) having no kith and kin and being misfortune of having a life partner, 6) bad habits, and 7) distress and suffering from bad luck. The contribution of this study is the Thai wisdom-based observations of facial parts and fortune telling.

Q: Android ListView setSelection() does not seem to work I have a ListActivity that implements onListItemClick() and calls a doSomething() function of the class. The latter contains l.setSelection(position) where l is the ListView object.
Now there is a onClickListener() listening for a button click that perfoms some actions and that too calls doSomething().
In the first case, the selected item get positioned appropriately, but in the latter, nothing happens.
Any clues about this strange behaviour and how I might make it work?

A: use requestFocusFromTouch() before calling setSelection() method

A: If you use an Adapter for your ListView add this code to your adapter:
public class MyAdapter extends
        ArrayAdapter<MyClass> {

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        if (convertView == null) {
            LayoutInflater inflator = (LayoutInflater) getContext()
                    .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
            rowView = inflator.inflate(R.layout.my_adapter, null);
        } else {
            rowView = (View) convertView;
        }

        //...

        // set selected item
        LinearLayout ActiveItem = (LinearLayout) rowView;
        if (position == selectedItem)
        {
            ActiveItem
                    .setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.background_dark_blue);

            // for focus on it
            int top = (ActiveItem == null) ? 0 : ActiveItem.getTop();
            ((ListView) parent).setSelectionFromTop(position, top);
        }
        else
        {
            ActiveItem
                    .setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.border02);
        }

    }

    private int selectedItem;

    public void setSelectedItem(int position) {
        selectedItem = position;
    }

}

In your Activity:
myAdapter.setSelectedItem(1);

A: For me calling
listView.notifyDataSetChanged();
listView.requestFocusFromTouch();

and then
 listView.setSelection(position);

solved the issue.
if you do that in a runnable it works without calling requestFocusFromTouch(), but the old position of the ListView is showen for a sekound.

A: I have an very large Request with Webcontent. When I used the code in onCreateView the Listview wasnt even finished loading.
I put it in onPostExecute of my AsyncTask.
            //Get last position in listview
        if (listView != null && scrollPosition != 0) {
            listView.clearFocus();
            listView.requestFocusFromTouch();
            listView.post(new Runnable() {
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    listView.setItemChecked(scrollPosition, true);
                    listView.setSelection(scrollPosition);
                }
            });
        }

Dont forget to set the item checked in on Click ;)

A: I know this is an old question but I just had a similar problem that I solved in this way:
mListView.clearFocus();
mListView.post(new Runnable() {
    @Override
    public void run() {
        mListView.setSelection(index);
    }
});

A: Maybe you should use the smoothScrollToPosition(int position) method of ListView

A: You can try 2 ways like these:
Solution A:
    mListView.post(new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            if (null != mListView) {
                mListView.clearFocus();
                mListView.requestFocusFromTouch();
                mListView.setSelection(0);
            }
        }
    });

In some complicated situation, this solution will bring some new problems in Android 8.x. Besides it may cause unexpected onFocusChange().
Solution B:
Define a custom view extends ListView. Override method handleDataChanged().Then setSelection(0). In CustomListView:
@Override
protected void handleDataChanged() {
    super.handleDataChanged();
    if (null != mHandleDataChangedListener){
        mHandleDataChangedListener.onChanged();
    }
}
HandleDataChangedListener mHandleDataChangedListener;

public void setHandleDataChangedListener(HandleDataChangedListener handleDataChangedListener) {
    this.mHandleDataChangedListener = handleDataChangedListener;
}

public interface HandleDataChangedListener{
    void onChanged();
}

In activity:
    mListView.setHandleDataChangedListener(new CustomListView.HandleDataChangedListener() {
        @Override
        public void onChanged() {
            mListView.setHandleDataChangedListener(null);
            mListView.setSelection(0);
        }
    });
    mAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

Ok, That's it.

A: You might need to wrap setSelection() in a posted Runnable (reference).

A: setSelection() does not necessarily have visual impact. The selection bar only appears if you use the D-pad/trackball to navigate the list. If you tap on the screen to click something, the selection bar appears briefly and vanishes.
Hence, setSelection() will only have a visual impact if the activity is not in touch mode (i.e., the last thing the user did was use the D-pad/trackball).
I am not 100% certain this explains your phenomenon given the description you provided, but I figured it is worth a shot...

A: maybe you need to use function:
ListView.setItemChecked(int position, boolean checked);

A: In my case smoothScrollToPosition(int position) worked, can you also tell me how to set that scrolled position into center of the list. It appeared at the bottom of visible items.

A: For me it helped to set
ListView.setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE); or ListView.CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE
then
ListView.setSelection(position) or ListView.setItemChecked(position, true);
works fine

A: Found a solution in my case. I am not using a Runnable since my class is extending ListFragment. What I had to do is make my index a final;
final index = 5;
mListView.setSelection(index);

A: I found that sometimes setSelection will not work because I set attribute "android:height" of listView to "wrap_content".
And the times my App won't work is that when listView become scrollable from non-scrollable.
For example, if my app is "File Browser App". When my list is less than, let's say 6, then it's non-scrollable. Now I return to the parent directory, and it has 11 objects, and I want to set selection to some position, and it won't work here.
to\from    |    Scrollable  | non-Scrollable

Scrollable   |        O      |        O( of course )
non-Scrollable  |        X      |      O( of course )
I don't want to use post(Runnable), because there will has delay.
==================================
Answer:
You can try to set "android:height" to "match_parent"
God, it spends three days.

A: When use post to setSelection(), the ListView will see first , then scroll to the position , thank to "魏經軒", then layout actually will effect the setSelection(), because setSelection() call the setSelectionFromTop(int position, int y), there is another way to solve it.
listView.setAdapter(listView.getAdapter());
listView.setSelection(123);

A: For me the solution to this problem was:
listView.clearChoices();

A: Simply try this code
  listView.setAdapter(adapter);
  listView.setSelection(position);
  adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

SMART PEOPLE by Lydia Diamond
Directed by Andrew Garret Karl
On the eve of Barack Obama's 2008 Presidential Election, four hyper-intelligent Cambridge residents find that -- despite their best intentions upon broaching the subject -- the topic of race is a treacherous one, full of stumbles and wrong turns. Through bright, funny dialogue and fast-paced vignettes, playwright Lydia Diamond (Broadway's Stick Fly) sets brings her quartet of complicated characters to vibrant life. As they each bull-headedly pursue their professional and personal goals, they find that issues of self-awareness, identity, and race are stumbling blocks that even "smart people" can't seem to avoid. Playwright Lydia R. Diamond most recent play, Smart People, was commissioned by the McCarter Theatre and had its world premiere at the Huntington in 2014. The Huntington's 2010 hit production of her play Stick Fly produced in association with Arena Stage inspired the 2011 Tony Award-nominated Broadway production.

Polkadots: the Cool Kids Musical follows 8-year-old Lily Polkadot who just moved to the "Squares Only" small town of Rockaway. As the first polkadot in an all-Square school, Lily faces an almost impossible task of gaining acceptance from her peers.
