Our comprehensive recommended Kilimanjaro kit list.
For a safe and more comfortable adventure up Kilimanjaro there are a number of things to take into consideration.
Even if planning your adventure in the traditionally dry season, there is always a chance of rain down in the rain forest, at least. Adequate protection for keeping dry is important (poncho).
Protection from the sun's harmful rays, which are intensified on Kilimanjaro due to the thinner atmosphere and being close to the equator, is also extremely important.
For the summit attempt, the correct layering approach is imperative because having the wrong equipment can put your safety at risk (hypothermia) and lessen your chance of reaching the summit successfully.
When talking about correct layers, there are 3 different layers to plan for. The first layer will be that which is closest to your body and the correct thermal underwear that does not contain cotton, but wicks moisture away from the skin, is the way to go.
The second layer will be your thermal layer that will trap warmth and keep you warm in cold conditions. Most people will take a down jacket which will be more than sufficient, but a good thermal jacket (i.e. 300gram PolarTec® / Nordic® fleece ) or similar will also do the job.
Remember to also take similar protection for your legs. Lastly you will have your outer layer, or outer shell. This will make sure that the heat that was created by your body does not escape and that cold wind or moisture does not bring down your core temperature.
The key to the clothing and equipment layers, including you boots, is that they should be "breathable" – allowing moisture to wick away from the body and prevent outside conditions from affecting you adversely.
By layering, you are able to regulate your temperature to be a happy medium, a balancing act between overheating or freezing.
See below Dream World Adventures' comprehensive kit list on what gear you need to take in order to have the best possible chance for a comfortable and successful summit of Kilimanjaro.
4 x Hiking shirts – T-shirts will also do, but stay away from cotton, as this absorbs moisture that will reduce your core temperature. Synthetic fabrics are better. The best would be to have long sleeve shirts that dry quickly and are UV protective.
3 x Hiking shorts – Once again try and stay away from cotton (rather use synthetic fabrics). The best would be full length pants, with the option of zip-off legs.
1 x Sun hat – Broad-rimmed hat, not just a cap – for proper sun protection.
2 x Sunglasses – Take a spare, it is always handy should you lose your glasses while hiking. Stay away from contact lenses as our eyes tend to dry out due to the extreme weather conditions. A pair of glasses is very useful on summit night to protect your eyes from the wind, dust and dry air.
6 x Socks – Thermal hiking socks are recommended to keep your feet warm and dry and to prevent blisters.
1 or 2 Hiking sticks – Depends on your preference, although a pair is recommended. Rather take a collapsible stick that can be tied down onto your day pack should you be walking over a level stretch, or the one stick is in the way.
1 x Hiking boots pair – Your hiking boots should be comfortable, give you ankle support, be waterproof & breathable, have a sturdy sole, and not be too heavy. It is important to get the correct boots for your feet and to wear them in – after all, it is your feet that will be getting you to your goal!
1 x Walking shoes/Running shoes pair – Once you get back to camp, it is recommended to give your feet a rest with light shoes.
1 x Balaclava/Beanie/Buff – For the cold evenings and also for the summit night, to prevent heat escaping from your head.
1 x Warm scarf – Optional – for extra warmth.
2 x Thermal underwear tops – Stay away from cotton, synthetic fabrics that are breathable and long sleeves are the best.
2 x Thermal underwear pants – Stay away from cotton, synthetic fabrics are breathable and with longs legs are the best.
1 x Thermal jacket – To trap your body heat. The best would be a Polartec®300 jacket or similar.
1 x Thermal pants – To trap your body heat. The best could be a Polartec®100 pants or similar.
1 x Gloves pair – The best combination is a thin liner glove, with fleece glove and an outer mitt that is wind and waterproof.
1 x Wind & water proof jacket – To protect you from the cold wind, and light rain or snow. Also to be used as your outer shell.
1 x Wind & water proof pants – To protect you from the cold wind, and light and light rain or snow. Also to be used as your outer shell.
1 x Poncho – To provide cover from hard or constant rain.
1 x Gaiters pair – A pair of gaiters will prevent water, mud and grass from getting in your boots.
1 x Sleeping mat – A 10mm foam sleeping mattress is provided, but a self-inflatable mattress can be taken along for added comfort and insulation.
1 x Day pack – Around 35 liters capacity, you will need this to carry all items that you would need and like to use during the day. Your extra equipment will be carried on your behalf. Must have soft arm and hip straps for comfort.
1 x Duffel bag/Carry bag – Around 100 litres capacity. This bag will be carried on your behalf on Kilimanjaro by porters (max 15kg). All your equipment must fit into this bag.
1 x Travel bag – Extra clothes can be left at the hotel. Should you be going on safari or to Zanzibar after your hike it will not be necessary to take all your items up Kilimanjaro.
1 x Headlamp – Remember to take spare (lithium ones survive cold better) batteries. Rather take a headlamp than a torch. LED headlamps work the best.
2 x Water bottles – Total water consumption should be at least 3-5 litres per day. You can purchase plastic 1.5l bottles of water at the hotel and decant from these to your own bottles (Plastic bottles have been banned from Kilimanjaro).
1 x Towel & washcloth – Keeping your body clean also increases your body's ability to keep you warm. Ideally take a cloth that dries quickly and that can be used for washing.
6 x Trail snacks – Make a packet for each day. The meals provided (breakfast, lunch and dinner) are more than adequate, but it is always a good idea to have something to eat between meals. Energy drinks can also be taken, but pure water must also be consumed.
Cash – Best to take USD cash in small denominations for tips, drinks and gifts. NB! US$50 & US$100 bills issued in or before 2006 are no longer legal tender in Tanzania and will not be accepted.
Cameras – Most cameras will work perfectly on Kilimanjaro. Video cameras will also work perfectly. Just remember to protect your camera and to take extra batteries and SD cards!
Medical Kit – Lip protection cream, Sunscreen (high factor), moisturising cream, Purifying tablets, Headace Tablets, Immodium, Buscopan, Plasters, Bandages, Antiseptic cream, Rehydrate sachets, Malaria Tablets, Multivitamins.
For your convenience, and also to save you on spending extra money on equipment that you may not use again, we can assist you with a comprehensive list of items to rent for your Kilimanjaro adventure climb.
Items need not be posted or collected at a point not convenient for you, as the items will be available from your arrival point in Moshi Tanzania.
To ensure that the items you will need will be available, please just e-mail your requirement list after you have booked with us. We will make sure that all is in place and have your guide assist before departing on your journey up Kilimanjaro.
Hyperbaric Pressure Bag (Gamow Bag) available for rental for US$130 per group.


Ordering alcohol? You must be 18 or over and may be required to show ID.
Warning - Under the Liquor Control Reform Act 1998 it is an offence to supply alcohol to a person under the age of 18 years (penalty exceeds $18,000), for a person under the age of 18 years to purchase or receive liquor (penalty exceeds $700).

9 Charmingly Beautiful Places To Visit In Spain
Beautiful Places To Visit In Spain
What are the places to visit in Spain? Passionate, sophisticated, and dedicated to enjoying the good life, Spain is an enthralling and diverse country full of wondrous surprises. This European country beckons travelers with its world-class beaches, enthralling architecture, and historical riches, a beautiful haven with outstanding monuments and landscapes.
Praised for tantalizing eats and mouth-watering dishes, it will also delight your gastronomic urges and taste buds with its infinite culinary choices. Furthermore, it has a host of places where you can soak up its unique culture and electric fiestas.
Visiting Spain soon? Need a little help planning a trip to one of the best places to travel in Europe? Here's a shortlist of some of the top and must-visit destinations in Spain.
Places To Visit In Spain: Toledo
Dramatic, eclectic, and beguiling, Toledo is home to some of Spain's most impressive monuments. Nicknamed in the Middle Ages as the city of three cultures, it's a one-of-a-kind city where Muslim, Christian, and Jewish communities harmoniously lived together for hundreds of years. With a peaceful clash of cultures, the city has turned into a treasure trove brimming with churches, palaces, fortresses, mosques, and synagogues.
Very few cities in Europe can rival the photogenic urban beauty of the vibrant Catalan capital. Home to some of Spain's most celebrated attractions, Barcelona will enthrall you with its architectural spectacles, like Antoni Gaudi's Casta Batllo and the Sagrada Familia Church. For the energetic and young, you'll be utterly glad to know that it's a trendy beach city with a buzzing nightlife circuit and incredible shopping options.
Craving for a memorable party on a Mediterranean island? Why not include Ibiza in your Spain travel itinerary? Praised for its pulsing clubs and bars, the island will intoxicate you with its crazily fun parties and tons of booze.
And with more than a hundred miles of coastline, Ibiza can be amazingly a haven for beach bums and sun-seekers.
No list of the best places to visit in Spain is complete without the inclusion of Madrid. For years, the city has been luring travelers worldwide with its burgeoning and dynamic nightlife scene.
Besides, Madrid will sweep you into bliss with its diverse neighborhoods and verdant, scenic parks. To make things even better, shopping options are endless, and it is home to some of Europe's best art institutions, like the Prado Museum.
Stylish, striking, and sun-drenched, Cadiz is, without a doubt, one of the most underrated destinations in Spain. Beloved for its pristine beaches and fresh seafood, the city has loads of grand open squares, palm-fringed promenades, and back streets waiting to be explored.
One of the best ways to start a trip to Cadiz is to explore the city by bike. After your bike tour, head to Torre Tavira – the highest watchtower in Cadiz – to soak up the awe-inspiring panoramic views.
Want to see something surreal and spectacular in Spain? Hitting the streets of Granada is like stepping into a real-life and actual Disney fairytale.
Not only does it showcase snowcapped peaks and winding cobbled streets, but it also has a stunning ancient fortress. Plus, it boasts a handful of intriguing attractions, such as Sacromonte and Alhambra.
A visit to Seville should be on everyone's agenda when visiting Spain. After all, it is a host to a trio of magnificent UNESCO World Heritage sites – the Reales Alcazares palace, the Cathedral, and General Archive of the Indies. Seville will assault your senses with a riot of colors, and the fragrance of orange blossoms even better.
For the most part, Santiago de Compostela is the finale for countless pilgrims who follow the annual Camino de Santiago. But, here's the thing.
You don't exactly have to walk for over 500 miles along the historic Christian pilgrimage route to experience this outstanding World Heritage City. Gothic buildings and a labyrinth of cobblestone streets are by far one of the most eye-catching old towns in Europe.
Nicknamed fittingly as the Land of Castles, Burgos is deeply rooted in its medieval history. Not to mention, it's incredibly charming, even for those who aren't into historical sites. Founded in 884, the town is revered for its northern Castilian ambiance and collection of medieval monuments, like the Cartuja de Miraflores and the Abbey of Santa Maria la Real de Las Huelgas.
Got a place in Spain that you'd like to add to our list? Think we've missed something? Well, feel free to share your thoughts and opinions with us using the comment section.

Joseph Joy: From the Oilfield to the Courtroom2018-09-162018-09-14/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/josephjoy-logo.pngJoseph Joyhttps://josephjoy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/shutterstock_73604356.jpg200px200px
Joseph Joy was born and raised in south Louisiana and that experience has influenced his legal practice over the years. He was born in New Orleans and grew up in Morgan City, Louisiana. During his high school years, he worked part-time jobs in the oilfield. In college, he worked on the rigs where he learned the industry firsthand. He knows the important role it plays in Louisiana but also saw a lot of accidents that injured workmen. So it's no wonder that Attorney Joseph Joy has had exceptional experience litigating cases involving the environment, oilfield worker injuries and medical malpractice.
The three are really tied together, Joseph Joy explains. "When I was working as a college student out in the oil field, I saw a lot of accidents and kept saying to myself that there had to be a better way. I saw oil field workers sustaining injuries and then not getting properly compensated. I wanted to change that so I became an attorney," he said.
"I love the outdoors and I cherish the environment of south Louisiana. It hurts me and our communities to see are beautiful wetlands, bayous and waterways damaged by those who are reckless. My law firm, Joseph Joy & Associates, specializes in environmental litigation, whether it is damage to the environment or to someone's private property from groundwater contamination, discharges, leaks, or just careless construction practices."
Joseph Joy will also tell you stories involving physicians committing medical malpractice while treating serious oilfield injuries. "I have helped clients obtain the funds they need for their medical care because the insurance company has tried to lowball them. This has happened in many cases involving serious spine injuries sustained by oil field workers. The oil field is a challenging environment and the employer has the duty to make it a safe one. When a worker is asked to do more than a one man can physically handle, it's no surprise that they suffer life changing injuries. They need to be compensated for that," said Joseph Joy.
Joseph Joy earned his law degree from Loyola School of Law in New Orleans. He began his practice in Morgan City and then moved to Lafayette with his wife, Jane. They have been married 45 years, have 4 kids and 9 grandchildren.
If you have been injured or suffered damages by the negligence of someone else, call our office now at 337-232-8123 or visit us at 900 S. College Rd., Lafayette, LA and attorney Joseph Joy can make an appointment to evaluate your claim.

Trump's Immigration Plan: We've Been Here Before, and it was a Humanitarian Disaster
By Benjamin Powers | October 17, 2016 | 3:35pm
Photo courtesy of Getty Politics Features Donald Trump
Trump started off his campaign by saying Mexicans are rapists who bring drugs across the border. His solution was to build a wall, and he's stuck by the statement even amidst the policy mood swings of his campaign. This "populist" platform has led to Twitter debates with former Mexican presidents and only 19 percent support from Hispanic voters, according to recent polling.
Trump has also expressed a commitment to forcibly deporting immigrants already within the country, even stating that he'd like to commission a task force for exactly this purpose.
Last September, Trump iterated his support for Operation Wetback, a controversial mass deportation operation that President Eisenhower enacted in 1954. In an interview with CBS's Scott Pelley, Trump was asked to articulate his plans for limiting illegal immigration.
"We're rounding them up in a very humane way, a very nice way," Trump said.
"What does that roundup look like to you?" Pelley asked. "How does it work? Are you going to have cops going door-to-door?"
"Did you like Eisenhower? Did you like Dwight Eisenhower as a president at all?" Trump retorted.
"He did this," Trump continued. "He did this in the 1950s with over a million people, and a lot of people don't know that…and it worked."
In a debate in November, Trump doubled down on this position:
"Eisenhower moved immigrants just beyond the border; they came back. Moved them again beyond the border; they came back. Didn't like it. Moved them way south; they never came back. Dwight Eisenhower. You don't get nicer, you don't get friendlier."
Operation Wetback, one of the most coercive immigration policies of the last 75 years in the US (and named after a racist term) began in 1954 and was carried out by Border Patrol agents. They rounded up Mexican laborers from fields and ranches in raids, sent them to the border, and then transported them deep into Mexico. Sometimes this was done by airlift and other times on cargo boats that typically hauled bananas. These boats, a congressional investigation later found, were comparable to an "eighteenth-century slave ship", and their use was discontinued only after the drowning of seven deportees who jumped ship from the Mercurio, provoking a mutiny and leading to a public outcry against the practice in Mexico.
The program came about, in part, as a reaction to the Bracero Program, which allowed about 4.6 million Mexicans to cross the border legally because the US had just entered World War II and needed agricultural labor. Yet, once service members returned home, things changed.
In 1951 President Truman's Commission on Migratory Labor released a report that blamed illegal immigration not only for the low wages in the Southwest, but also the social ills of the country. The report even went on to note that "the magnitude … has reached entirely new levels in the past 7 years.… In its newly achieved proportions, it is virtually an invasion."
Beginning in Arizona and California, the plan counted on publicity and selective shows of force to cause others to flee the US. In Texas upwards of 63,000 individuals chose to return to Mexico, and U.S. officials detained another 42,000 people in July 1954. A report from the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) found that nearly 1.1 million individuals were rounded up, though that figure is debated.
Doris Meissner, who was Commissioner of the U.S Immigration and Naturalization Service between 1993 and 2000 and now directs immigration policy work at the Washington-based Migration Policy Institute, told CNN that Operation Wetback "was lawless; it was arbitrary; it was based on a lot of xenophobia, and it resulted in sizable large-scale violations of people's rights, including the forced deportation of U.S. citizens."
Buses of deportees were dropped in places like Mexicali, Mexico. There, the temperatures can be as high as 125 degrees and deportees were left on the streets with only the possessions they could carry and no way of getting to their homes.
As Mae Ngai wrote in her book Impossible Subjects:
"Some 88 braceros died of sun stroke as a result of a round-up that had taken place in 112-degree heat, and [an American labor official] argued that more would have died had Red Cross not intervened. At the other end of the border, in Nuevo Laredo, a Mexican labor leader reported that 'wetbacks' were 'brought [into Mexico] like cows' on trucks and unloaded fifteen miles down the highway from the border, in the desert."
In 1955, the INS pronounced the operation a success, claiming that, "The so-called 'wetback' problem no longer exists. … This is no longer, as in the past, a problem in border control. The border has been secured."
Trump's desire to remove the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants via this same process has been met with scorn, disbelief and, by some, encouragement. That being said, it's been largely discredited given the costs it would entail as well as the social implications. Nonetheless, his mention of the program shows us that we've been in this position as a country before, and we didn't handle it well. Faced with the prospects of a Trump presidency, perhaps we can stop history from repeating itself, no matter who wins come November.

Q: SoftLayer Command Line Interface - SLCLI - Instance Private only node I'm looking to instance a private only virtual machine on SoftLayer using the SLCLI. So far this command creates an instance but critically it automatically assigns a Public Interface which I do not want and does not create the machine on the specific Private VLAN I want either:
# slcli vs create --image 1060669 --hostname ejkpoc --domain ejk.co.uk --cpu 1 --memory 1 --datacenter lon02 --postinstall https://10.1.1.13/files/bootstrap-rhel-5.sh --billing hourly

Any ideas from the community on what to change the commands to to get the desired result? I'll keep hacking away in parallel ...
Thanks
EJK
***************** UPDATE
So having tried some more I now have the correct structure for the command line:
slcli vs create --billing=hourly --image=1060669 --hostname=ejkpoc --domain=ejk.co.uk --cpu=1 --memory=1 --datacenter=lon02 --postinstall=https://10.1.1.13/files/bootstrap-rhel-5.sh --vlan-private=1138

But this errors with:
SoftLayerAPIError(SoftLayer_Exception_Public): Could not obtain network VLAN with id #1138.

Cheers
EJK
**************** UPDATE
Definitely the right VLAN ... 1138

And 1138 is the only integer value I have to act as an ID ...
Thank
EJK
*********** UPDATE
Nelson was right the VLAN ID is located in the URL so mine was
https://control.softlayer.com/network/vlans/1227409
this line now works and machines are creating on the right private VLAN .. BUT!!! They are coming with a public VLAN too even though I don't want that .. command so far that works
slcli vs create --billing=hourly --image=1060669 --hostname=ejkpoc --domain=ejk.co.uk --cpu=1 --memory=1 --datacenter=lon02 --postinstall=https://10.1.1.13/files/bootstrap-rhel-5.sh --vlan-private=1227409

The major trouble with the assignment of a public for me is that all of the postinstall bootstrap with attaches to Chef etc. is now registering the FQDN of the public - yuck!
Cheers
EJK
************ UPDATE
All working now ... I missed out the "--private" option on the above SLCLI command ... Many thanks Nelson !!!

A: run the command:
slcli vs create --help

you will see that to create a VSI in a private network you only need to add the --private paramter. also it list how to create the VSI in a specific VLAN:
$ slcli vs create --help
Usage: slcli vs create [OPTIONS]

RNCM Summer Season 2022
RNCM Chamber Choir with NEW Sinfonia at RNCM
Johnny James, Managing Editor
The RNCM Chamber Choir.
RNCM Chamber Choir with NEW Sinfonia at Royal Northern College of Music (RNCM), Manchester, 17 June 2022, from £10.00 - Book now
This June, NEW Sinfonia and the RNCM's most promising vocalists are joining forces for an evening of orchestral works by Benjamin Britten and Aaron Copland, plus Mozart's treasured choral work, Solemn Vespers.
NEW Sinfonia are an orchestra made up of professional musicians from across North Wales and beyond, and currently act as the Orchestra in Residence at the North Wales International Music Festival. With a special focus on encouraging young people to get involved in music – both playing and listening – NEW Sinfonia are all about "NEW Experiences, NEW Audiences, NEW Wales".
They kick off tonight's concert with Benjamin Britten's Simple Symphony, one of the composer's early orchestral suites. It's by turns wistful and mischievous as it recollects childhood as a state of innocence wherein one is both vulnerable and powerful. We'll then hear Aaron Copland's Quiet City, based on incidental music he wrote for Irwin Shaw's play of the same name. The music treads the path of Shaw's main character, a Jewish immigrant who abandons his heritage to pursue the American dream only to be continually recalled to his roots through the haunting sound of his brother's trumpet playing.
Last comes Mozart's Solemn Vespers, for which NEW Sinfonia will be joined by the RNCM Chamber Choir, an auditioned ensemble of 24 voices, along with students from the College's esteemed School of Vocal Studies and Opera. The six-movement choral work was written for Salzburg cathedral in 1780 – a particularly difficult period in the composer's life, due to the Archbishop placing fairly severe restrictions on his writing style. But this only fuelled Mozart's fire; each exuberantly imaginative movement seems an attempt to overcome the restrictions in a different way. Although a sacred work, Mozart's love for opera shines brightly, as does the setting of Laudate Dominium for soprano soloist and choir found within this stunning work.
The concert, which forms part of the RNCM's eclectic Summer Season, is conducted by Anna Beresford, who this year won the NYBBGB Weston Conductors Competition. As one of the leading lights of RNCM's MMus Conducting course, we look forward to hearing how this wonderful programme sounds under her baton.

Sanofi Grants Regeneron Exclusive License on Libtayo® Worldwide Mypharma Editions
June 9, 2022 by sildenafilandtadalafil.com
Posted on Friday, June 3rd, 2022
Sanofi is reorganizing her immuno-oncology collaboration with Regeneron. Regeneron Libtayo will receive exclusive license rights, subject to the terms of the new, modified and restored cooperation and license agreement. Sanofi Libtayo will receive $ 900 million in advance payments and 11% royalties for worldwide net sales, as well as $ 100 million in regulatory milestone payments as well as eligibility for milestone payments on sales links. Which could reach মিল 100 million in the next two years.
The Global Immuno-Oncology Cooperation and Licensing Agreement between Sanofi and Regeneron expired in 2015. So far, the two companies have shared operating profits from global Libtayo sales, and jointly marketed the product in the United States – Sanofi is solely responsible for marketing it elsewhere in the world.
Bill Seabold, Executive Vice President, Specialty Care and President, North America, Sanofi: "Our diversified oncology portfolio has doubled in size between 2019 and 2022 and now consists of twelve molecules in clinical trials, each with a unique process-immuno-immune. The first steps we have taken have made it possible to lay a solid foundation for the renewal of the initiatives we are taking in the field of oncology. We will work closely with Regeneron in our immunology to ensure that the transfer of Libtayo-related rights is in the best possible condition without affecting patients.
In accordance with the amended and restored cooperation and licensing agreement, Sanofi will transfer the rights to develop, commercialize and manufacture Libtayo worldwide to Regeneron for a specified period of time (which will begin when all necessary regulatory approvals are obtained). In return, Sanofi will receive 900 900 million in advance payments and 11% royalties on Libtayo's global net sales. Sanofi will also be eligible for a 100 100 million regulatory milestone payment – which is expected to occur after Libtayoke is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or the European Commission for first-line treatment of certain categories of patients. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), a combination of chemotherapy – as well as milestone payments for the sale of this product that could reach a total of $ 100 million over the next two years. The termination of this transaction will be subject to the approval of the competition authorities and should be finalized by the third quarter of 2022.
Regeneron will also accelerate the repayment of the balance of development costs related to the separate "antibody" cooperation between the two companies. Regeneron will increase its share of the profits returned to Sanofi by 10% to 20% in return for the development costs financed by Sanofi until a portion of the total growing development expenditure is absorbed by this remaining collaboration.
Sanofi continues to strengthen its vast knowledge in oncology and expands its research and development capabilities to focus on hard-to-treat cancers such as breast, blood and lung cancers. The company is committed to transforming scientific discoveries into potential new treatments and filling important gaps in cancer care.

If you haven't before, then now is the perfect time for you to learn about the ins and outs of plumbing. You may have thought of doing it before, but never had the time to do so. The information in this article will be a wonderful starting point as you begin to explore the world of plumbing.
Obnoxiously loud pipes that like to squeal and hammer are easy situations to correct. Exposed pipes need to be anchored. You are going to need a professional if the pipes will be located in the ceiling, walls, or the floors.
Check for floor damage around your toilet. If the floor around your toilet feels softer than the rest of the floor in your bathroom, there's damage you need to address. Stand above the toilet with a foot positioned on each side up close to the base. Shift your weight back and forth to detect any weakness or sponginess. Early detection of the problem may save you a great deal of money over time.
Schedule all your plumbing work at the same time. It might be tempting to call up a plumber every time you have a small problem, but if you will save all the plumbing issues for one time, it can be helpful. It will allow you save the money for the repairs. Because plumbers generally round up to the nearest hour, this also allows you to save money. The time only gets rounded up once, rather than multiple times.
To lower the chance that you will have issues with your toilet, do not approach it like it's a trash can. You should never flush cotton balls, sanitary pads, tissues, paper towels, diapers, or certain other materials, because these things don't dissolve and could clog up your toilet. Also, use as little toilet paper as possible to clean yourself properly.

Kombucha is a living, probiotic tea that has long been associated with wellness and vitality. It is brewed by combining tea and sugar with a fermenting culture called a "mother" or SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast). The culture uses the sugar for the fermentation process so there is little residual sugar in the final product. The result is a sparkling, refreshing beverage that is a little sweet and a little tart, often compared to apple cider. We flavor our kombucha with spices, herbs and tinctures to enhance their taste and benefit. All our kombucha is certified USDA organic, 100% vegan, non-gmo and gluten-free.
Kombucha is a delicious and thirst quenching beverage with much lower sugar content than soda or fruit juice. It is touted for it's combination of anti-oxidants, probiotics and amino acids.
What kind of teas are used?
We use of a blend of black and green teas – they vary from blend to blend but include assam, gunpowder green, oolong and jasmine. We use only organic, fair trade teas in our products.
While we are not certified gluten-free, we do not use any products containing gluten in the manufacturing of our kombucha.
Where is Mother Kombucha Made?
All our kombucha is brewed and kegged in St Petersburg, Florida.
Where should I direct wholesale inquiries?
Inquiries can be directed to tonya@motherkombucha.com or by calling 727-409-8806.

Yahoo! Finance
PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Charter School Capital, the nation's leading provider of growth capital and facilities financing to charter schools, announced today that its facilities arm, American Education Properties (AEP), has acquired five Florida charter school facilities for $71.74 million from ESJ Capital Partners and MG3 Developer Group. The transaction was funded in late November, 2016.
Charter School Capital delivers access to growth capital and facilities financing to charter schools nationwide.
Five facilities operated by four charter management organizations (CMOs) are included in this deal, which encompasses a total of 295,992 square feet over 38 acres in Broward, Indian River and Hillsborough Counties. Charter schools operating in the facilities are Renaissance Charter School at Plantation, Imagine Charter and Middle School at Broward, Imagine School at South Vero, Championship Academy of Distinction–Davie Campus, and Kid's Community College Riverview South.
"It is immensely gratifying to positively impact the future of 4,065 students in a single transaction," said Stuart Ellis, president and CEO of Charter School Capital. "After months of due diligence, we were delighted to arrive at terms that provide five charter schools in Florida with the peace of mind that comes in knowing their facilities are securely theirs to operate with a partner willing to fund growth and expansion for years to come."
Gabriel Amiel and Arnaud Sitbon, principals of ESJ, stated, "A transaction of this magnitude represents ESJ's largest charter school sale to date, and confirms our early belief in Florida's charter school growth. We are pleased to work with the Charter School Capital team to collectively commit to the long term path of charter school education."
Renaissance Charter School is located at 6701 West Sunrise Blvd., in Plantation, Fla., in Broward County. The charter school opened in 2012 and currently serves 1,115 students for the 2016-17 school year. Operated by Charter Schools USA, one of the oldest and largest CMOs in the country, the K-8 charter school operates in three buildings on more than five acres. The original building on the property was constructed in 1970, with the two additional buildings constructed in 2013. Outdoor amenities include a green-space and playground.
Imagine Charter and Middle School at Broward is located at 9001 Westview Drive in Coral Springs, Fla., in Broward County, in a two-story building. Outdoor recreation spaces on the 10-acre property include a double basketball court, green space and two separate playgrounds with covered areas. The PK-8 charter school opened in 2008 and currently has 877 students enrolled for the 2016-17 school year. The A-rated school is operated by Imagine Schools, the sixth largest charter school operator in the United States.
Imagine School at South Vero, also operated by Imagine Schools, is located at 6000 4thStreet in Vero Beach, Fla., in Indian River County. This K-8 charter school operates from nine pod-style buildings built in 2009 that are connected by covered walkways. Outdoor recreation spaces include a covered basketball court, a regulation-size soccer/football field and a playground. Opened in 2009, the A-rated Imagine School at South Vero currently serves 890 students for the 2016-17 school year.
Championship Academy of Distinction–Davie Campus, also in Broward County, is a K-8 charter school located at 3367 North University Drive in Davie, Fla. Built in 1999, the charter school's single two-story building on a two-plus acre property that includes a playground. The A-rated Championship Academy of Distinction–Davie Campus was established in 2011 and serves 615 students in the 2016-17 school year.
Kid's Community College Riverview South is located at 10030 Mathog Road in Riverview, Fla., in a single two-story building. Built in 2012, the facility's outdoor amenities include a basketball court, greenspace and a playground. Located in Hillsborough County, the PK-8 charter school was started in 2005 and currently serves 568 students in the 2016-17 school year. It is independently operated by Kid's Community College, a CMO that manages a total of eight charter schools serving Pre-K through high school.
Today, more than 1 million students find themselves on waiting lists for their local charter schools. The National Alliance for Public Charters schools continues to highlight the lack of facilities options available to charter schools as a major issue charter leaders face. To meet this demand, charter schools require facilities that address the unique growth needs of each school and community and require access to capital to expand. Charter School Capital focuses solely on charter school needs, providing customizable facilities financing options to charter schools. Charter leaders retain control of their buildings and are afforded the flexibility to make the modifications necessary to expand their enrollment and academic programs.
About Charter School Capital:
Launched in 2006, Charter School Capital delivers access to growth capital and facilities financing to charter schools nationwide, opening the funding options charter schools historically have not had. Charter School Capital has provided in excess of $1.2 billion in funding to 500+ charter schools providing high-quality education to more than 550,000 students across the United States.

News – Monstrum to launch on Steam Early Access in January 2015
Team Junkfish would like to announce that their survival horror labyrinth "Monstrum" will be launching on Steam Early Access on the 29th of January 2015, with a prospective full launch in Q2 2015.
Frequently cited as one of the horror games to look out for in 2015, Monstrum takes the traditional survival horror formula and remixes it completely with its procedurally generated levels, permadeath and AI driven predators ensuring that nowhere on its derelict cargo ship is every truly safe.
With its focus on replayability Monstrum offers up a challenge to even the hardiest gamers, forcing them to use their wits and what ever tools they have at hand to outrun or outsmart their pursuers as they attempt to escape an environment that is out to kill them while evading the lurking terror that lies around any corner.
As part of the Early Access launch Monstrum will be available at a discounted price of £9.99/$14.99/€12.50, which will increase to £11.99/$17.99/€14.99 when the game launches fully.
Early Access Features
The initial Early Access version of Monstrum will feature:
Two unique monsters, each with their own tracking methods and hunting styles
Three potential escape routes, each with their own challenges to solve
Four ship sections to navigate through
A procedurally generated environment, no ship is ever the same.
A variety of distractions, hiding places and tools to aid your survival
Full Release Features
The full release of Monstrum will include:
Three monsters in total
Five varied ship sections, with their own environmental traps and hazards
Oculus Rift support
Team Junkfish also give the following statement on launching Monstrum in Early Access:
"We are very excited to announce the Early Access launch date for Monstrum. Choosing to launch the game in Early Access was a truly difficult decision, however we felt that we owed it to all of the fans who have been patiently waiting on the game to try and meet our proposed launch date in some fashion and not further delay the game.
For the Early Access launch we will have most of the game's features in game, so players will be able to run screaming in terror down the halls in an attempt to escape whatever is chasing them, or make their way off the ship if they can fix up one of the escape routes dotted around the freighter. But we need the extra time to polish up our final monster, an extra area of the ship and sink any bugs that are still lurking around to make sure that the full launch is up to the standards that both we as developers and our fans hold.
Because we're launching Monstrum in Early Access we will be offering the game at a discount. We hope that this, combined with the opportunity to provide feedback will help us forge Monstrum into the best game it can be."

Press Feedback on Monstrum
"Monstrum definitely seems to be going in all the right directions, pushing forward in what was threatening to become a stale and samey genre." – Ben Barrett, Rock, Paper, Shotgun
"…it's brilliant in implementation, and a lot of the things that make it brilliant are things that could have sunk another game." – Christian Donlan, Eurogamer
"Death matters: get caught by the monster or lose your footing and your attempt to escape is over. Next time you start, the layout of the ship will be different, the locations of key items will have changed. It's this that gives the game an edge over what its most obvious peers—the Amnesia series, Slender—have already achieved." – Chris Thursten, PC Gamer
"Some of the scariest moments I had in this game happened whenever I was searching a floor and suddenly found a door that I knew wasn't opened by me, which was a lot more frightening than any scripted sequence could hope to be." – Caspar Bronmans, Rely On Horror
"…I've already spent a fair amount of time with Monstrum and I'm happy to say I'm nothing but impressed. Massive ships with labyrinthine interiors ruin what little sense of direction I possess, and because the locations of precious items are different every time you play, there's a decent replay factor here as well as a healthy amount of scares." – Adam Dodd, Bloody Disgusting
"The problem is, a monster is stalking the player and believe me, it's a nerve-racking feeling when you first catch a glimpse of one." – Alasdair Duncan, Destructoid
"So far, Team Junkfish's survival-horror is impressive; impressively terrifying, impressively disorientating, and the amount of sleep it probably helped me lose is also arguably impressive." – Ryan Noble, Indie Games Magazine

Ravens and Browns have a Sunday night defensive battle
In week twelve of the current NFL season, the professionals of the toughest league in the world were able to train off the extra portions of turkey from Thanksgiving. Our game day summary "Cover Them All" checks who must have enjoyed the festive feast particularly well and who still felt a little heavy in the stomach for gluttony. In the Sunday Night Football Game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Cleveland Browns it was extremely close, as you are used to from top games from the AFC North.
Baltimore and Cleveland put together a tight AFC North box on Sunday Night
The motto "Ground & Pound" was not only written on a number of flags at Sunday Night Football, the Browns and Ravens also distributed what felt like t-shirts bearing the name of their down-to-earth football philosophy. As the close AFC-North duel between the two rivals showed, the two teams are not only pursuing this path with full conviction, it also has a little to do with the limitations of their quarterbacks. There are reasons why Baker Mayfield failed to pass 50 percent and Lamar Jackson threw four interceptions. These reasons, between bad luck with injuries and sporting ideology, excuse some things, but then also do not excuse a lot.
Against the frenetic backdrop of Sunday Night Football, the Ravens and Browns rarely manage to capitalize on their opponents' mistakes. Both dreaded running games are very difficult to get going with less than four yards per carry each, so in the end it is nuances that decide the game. A missed field goal by the Browns takes revenge late, Mark Andrews sets an important accent with a magic catch, the Ravens benefit from almost 40 minutes of possession despite the nightmare passing day for Lamar Jackson and are a little bit at the end of 16:10 more determined and happier. The old questions about the throwing suitability of your star quarterback won't fall silent after the last few weeks, but will probably be discussed again once again. Either way, things are looking good for the Ravens in terms of the NFL playoffs, while things are getting tight for Cleveland.
Still can't get over these two plays from Lamar Jackson and Mark Andrews.@ lj_era8 @ MAndrews_81

Green Bay Packers dominate crisis-ridden LA Rams
The top NFL game of Week 12 wasn't always one, but it was a few mistakes, fumbles and questionable decisions. Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers don't care either, because apart from kicking headaches, they set an exclamation point against a potential future NFC playoff opponent with their much more solid performance. In order for them to get that far, the Rams should first look very carefully in their own mirror and quickly find their completely lost rhythm again. In addition to the attack, which stutters over long stretches, this also applies to the defensive, which too seldom fully utilizes its potential.
Jalen Hurts gives the New York Giants victory
During the week the New York Giants fired their offensive coordinator Jason Garrett and he got some verbal broadsides afterwards as parting gifts. With their 264-yard fireworks, they owed the proof that the ex-cowboys coach was the real problem. Fortunately for the "G Men" there is still a defense that tackles its fingers sore on the unfortunate Jalen Hurts (three interceptions) and his eagles.
The sad farewell to the Ben Roethlisberger era
There was a time when it took opposing running backs three NFL games to get to 100 yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Yesterday Joe Mixon made it in the first half. There were times when Ben Roethlisberger was one of the best quarterbacks in the league and the Bengals a match ball for their AFC North rivals from Steel City. But how did Bob Dylan sing: The Times They Are A-Changin. For Joe Burrow & Co. they do that for the better.

Cordarrelle Patterson lets the Falcons cheer again
Against Dallas and New England, the Atlanta Falcons mumbled just three measly points in the past NFL weeks, on the other hand, the three touchdowns in Jacksonville looked almost like an offensive explosion. Especially the return of RB aka WR aka RS Cordarrelle Patterson is good for the hawks, he runs a whopping 6.8 yards per carry, collects 108 rush yards and finds the end zone twice. Jacksonville, on the other hand, keeps getting in its own way with two turnovers and some mental errors.
"Gang Green" wins despite a weak Zach Wilson
On paper, this encounter between two NFL basement children knocked about as many fans off their stools as there are at the end of a game of "Travel to Jersualem". The Jets steal an away win with a combative performance of their defense, allow Houston only three first downs in half two and enjoy a monster game from John Franklin-Myers (two sacks and an interception). Zach Wilson disappointed after his injury break, shines for a long time with the "deer in the light cone" look and at times even lacks any NFL quality.
Tua and the Dolphins end the Cam Newton euphoria
Miami confirms the positive impression of the last NFL weeks and uses its quick short passing game for Tua Tagovailoa against the dangerous pass rush of the guests. Especially Jaylen Waddle convinces with nine catches for 137 yards and catches a touchdown on top of that. With the Panthers, the Cam-Newton-Bandwagon experiences a severe axle break (five of 21 passes to the man, two picks), has to clear the road for PJ Walker and there is not much else going together for Matt Rhule's group.
New England Patriots continue their winning streak
The machine steams and steams and steams … New England continues its NFL triumph, Mac Jones again throws some good coals into the fire and the defense does the rest for Belichick's men with three takeaways. Tennessee, with about one and a half practice squads due to injury concerns, had a chance at 270 rush yards, but quarterback Ryan Tannehill (93 pass yards, 4.4 yards per pass) never found the right answer to New England's defensive crossword puzzle.
HAVE YOURSELF A DAY LEONARD FOURNETTE ????
4 TDs for the Bucs RB

Quadruple Fournette cheers the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The whole story isn't nearly as impressive as Polk High legend Al Bundy's only true "four touchdowns in one game", of course, but Leonard Fournette's four scores still give the Tampa Bay Buccaneers an important NFL midseason win. The Colts demand everything from the reigning Super Bowl champs for a long time and dominate the first half, but then two consecutive sales by Carson Wentz bring the Bucs back into play. After a spectacular back and forth, it's Fournette who puts the lid on it 20 seconds before the end.
Denver Broncos are pulling the plug on inconstant Chargers
Anyone who is constantly inconstant in the NFL is somehow constant again. The Los Angeles Chargers can tell a lot about it, after all, in a week they will burn off fireworks with their Herbert'schen hurray offense, and then lay a nice free-range egg on top of it the week after. The strong Broncos defense knows how to use something like this and carries her offense, which is rather uninspired in this game, to the goal. Pat Surtain II sets the next exclamation mark in his convincing rookie season with a Pick-Six.
San Francisco 49ers keep playoff hopes alive
It was exactly the kind of competitive game you'd expect when two teams in the NFL clash with identical records of five wins and five losses. In the end, the 49ers used their home advantage, another varied offense (with a strong combination of Elijah Mitchell and Brandon Aiyuk) and a punctual goal line stand to twist the horns of the Vikings. Minnesota kept up for a long time thanks to a 99 yard kickoff return from Kene Nwangwu, but ultimately not only lost the game, but also star runner Dalvin Cook to a chest injury.

The start date of the Festival Chorus has been moved to January 26. Two sessions will be added in March (so the number of sessions will remain unchanged). Dress rehearsal is still scheduled for April 8 and the performance date is still scheduled for April 9. Please be aware that the course may be cancelled if the Covid-19 situation does not improve by the end of January.
The World in Six Songs
The Festival Chorus will perform a variety of a capella and accompanied works from historical and contemporary composers loosely illustrating the ideas put forward in Daniel Levitin's book, "The World in Six Songs: How the Musical Brain Created Human Nature". Explore the six fundamental song types: friendship, joy, comfort, religion, knowledge and love as crafted by composers from BC Indigenous cultures and English madrigalists to Capilano alumnus Chris Sivak and Festival Chorus director Geordie Roberts. Some choral experience very beneficial. Please contact the director for an interview if you are new to the Festival Chorus.
Physical Distancing in Winter/Spring 2022
For Winter/Spring 2022, we will continue to mask and maintain more-than-usual personal space, contingent on provincial health guidelines. If space requirements make it necessary, rehearsals will be divided into two sessions, one starting at 6 p.m. and the second starting at 7:45 p.m., to allow for more spacing between singers.
It is anticipated that we will be able to present a live concert in the BlueShore Financial Centre for the Performing Arts on Saturday, April 9 with an audience in attendance.
Search for a New Director Underway
A search for a new director for the Festival Chorus will be undertaken during the 2022 academic year, and in the interim, the choir will be led by Geordie Roberts. His focus will be on smaller works for chorus and piano, an emphasis on improving vocal skill and collaborative musicianship while encouraging expressiveness and enjoyment of making music together.
Joining the Festival Chorus
All singers new to the choir are encouraged to have an assessment/interview with Mr. Roberts before the first session (January 26) to ensure they are placed in the appropriate voice section. Please email groberts@capilanou.ca for information.
Familiarity with choral scores and some degree of music literacy would be an asset in enabling registrants to fully enjoy the Festival Chorus. Some choral experience would also be beneficial.
About the Festival Chorus
Capilano University Festival Chorus sings a vast range of choral music from the medieval period to newly commissioned works in collaboration with the Capilano University student choirs.
Recent concerts include Bach's Christmas Oratorio, Handel's Messiah and Dixit Dominus, Charpentier's Te Deum, Carl Orff's Carmina Burana, and the 4th movement of Beethoven's 9th Symphony. A sampling of other major works performed in the past includes Haydn's Lord Nelson Mass, Bach's Magnificat, Vivaldi's Gloria and Magnificat, Castelnuovo Tedesco's Romancero Gitano, Ramirez' Misa Criolla, and requiems by Mozart, Brahms, and Fauré.
Students need to schedule an audition with the instructor before registering. Please email groberts@capilanou.ca to schedule the audition. Once approved, you can register in the course. Alternatively, you may register prior to this audition, but be advised that if you do not meet the requirements at the audition, you will not be allowed to continue. A full refund will be issued.
A NOTE ABOUT THE NUMBER OF SESSIONS: The course runs for 12 sessions PLUS one Friday for a dress rehearsal and one Saturday for the live performance. So technically, that's 14 sessions, although it says 11 below. Pay no attention to the 11. It's just another example of how computers are ... ahem ...not quite there yet.
Wednesday 7 p.m. – 9:30 p.m.
Total sessions 11
Instructor Geordie Roberts
Feb 23 7 – 9:30 p.m. No Class
Apr 8 7 – 10 p.m. Dress Rehearsal: BlueShore Theatre
Apr 9 7 – 10 p.m. Performance: BlueShore Theatre

(FDI) and plant-level productivity. Specifically, we examine the effect of FDI on the level of sales, the growth rate of sales, the level of productivity and the growth rate of productivity. The eight narrowly defined industries studied are: cotton and chemical fiber products, instant noodles and other convenience food manufacturing, plastic parts, glass fiber products, automobile parts and accessories, electric components, electronic components, and communication equipment.
Empirical results show that, in order to enhance the company's level of sales,sales growth rate, the level of productivity and the productivity growth rate, cotton and chemical fiber products manufacturing should increase exports and reduce upstream foreign capital. In order to enhance the company's sales growth rate, the level of productivity and productivity growth rate, firms in the instant noodles and other convenience food manufacturing industry should increase downstream foreign capitals from non-ethnic Chinese and reduced export 's share in total industry output.
In order to enhance the company's level of sales, sales growth rate, the level of productivity and the productivity growth rate, firms in the plastic parts manufacturing industry should increase downstream foreign capital and reduce the share of export in total output. In order to enhance logarithm sales, the logarithm value-added productivity and the logarithm value-added productivity mobility rate, firms in the glass fiber and the product manufacturing industry should increase upstream foreign capital, reduced the share of equity from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan in the firm and promote competition in the industry.
In order to enhance the level of sales, sales growth rate and the level of productivity, the automobile parts and accessories industry should reduce foreign capitals from non-ethnic Chinese. In order to enhance the company's level of sales and the level of productivity, the electric components manufacturing should encourage investment from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan in upstream industries.
In order to enhance the level of sales, sales growth rate and the level of productivity, the electronic components industry should increase the share of foreign capital outside the region but within the same industry. In order to enhance the levelof sales and sales growth rate, firms in the communication equipment industry should limit the share of non-ethnic Chinese equity in the upstream.
origin of the foreign capital and the location of the foreign capital. Both firms and the government should pay attention to the heterogeneity in the spillover effect of FDI since FDI can be harmful to productivity in some industries.
