Johnson Takes Senators' Tack in Suit
Posted June 25, 2004 at 6:38pm
Leveraging a tactic two Senators have already employed with some success, a House Member for the first time has used powerful constitutional language in an attempt to shield herself from a lawsuit brought under the Congressional Accountability Act.
Earlier this month, Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas) asserted that a U.S. District judge must dismiss a race-discrimination case filed against her office on the grounds that a clause in Article I protects Members from being questioned about "Speech or Debate in either House … in any other place."
Former scheduler Elisabeth Howie, who describes herself as a black woman of Hispanic origin from Panama, filed suit late last year alleging Johnson fired her after outlining a specific preference to hire an Asian woman to fill the position. Johnson is also black.
In earlier court filings, Johnson did not mention the Speech or Debate Clause and instead attempted to get the case dismissed for technical reasons. But in responding to an amended complaint in which Howie addressed those technicalities, Johnson and her House attorneys maintained that Howie was sufficiently tied to the legislative process to trigger Speech or Debate immunity.
"Defendant now moves to dismiss the first amended complaint in its entirety because the Speech or Debate Clause of the U.S. Constitution bars this court's jurisdiction over this action," Johnson's attorneys in the House Office of Employment Counsel wrote.
It appears to be the first time a House Member has made such a claim for a case brought under the CAA.
Johnson referred all questions to her attorneys in the House Employment Counsel's office. The senior counsel on her case, Gloria Ferguson, said her office does not comment on pending litigation.
Rep. Christopher Shays (R-Conn.), who sponsored the landmark statute in 1995, expressed disbelief that a House Member had invoked the privilege, which heretofore has only been used in the Senate.
"You've got to be kidding me," Shays said. "I don't know why Members do it. They don't have to do it. Just live by the law like everyone else. I am pretty shocked that it would be used by any Member of the House."
Howie's former attorney, Wayne Marcus Scriven, also expressed dismay. "I really think this will become a hot political issue," he said. "It's unfortunate that it's happening in the House now."
Judge James Robertson barred Scriven from representing Howie after he improperly met with Johnson's then-chief of staff, Beverly Fields. He is now representing Fields in her complaint against Johnson, which was recently filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Fields alleges she was retaliated against and then terminated after she protested Howie's firing. Scriven said he expects Johnson to claim Speech or Debate immunity in that case as well.
At least three Senators have claimed constitutional immunity in employment lawsuits. Two of those cases are pending in federal court.
In the first, Sen. Ben Nighthorse Campbell (R-Colo.) has argued that he is immune from a race-discrimination suit brought by his former state director, Rita Bastien. Her case was dismissed by a district court in Colorado in 2002 on grounds that the Constitution bars such suits. The question of whether Campbell's decision to terminate her was a constitutionally immune legislative act or merely an administrative one — and thus not protected — is now before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit.
Sen. Mark Dayton (D-Minn.) has also claimed Speech or Debate protection. That case, brought by Brian Hanson, a former state-office employee who claims he was fired after he told Dayton of his heart condition, has been awaiting a decision by a D.C. District Court judge since last October on whether Hanson can proceed with his suit.
In invoking Speech or Debate, Johnson's lawyers cited Campbell's case as well as two others that were dismissed on the same grounds. The first, Browning v. Clerk, U.S. House of Representatives, predates the Congressional Accountability Act by a decade. In it, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit determined that a House clerk who transcribed testimony could not pursue a race discrimination case in the courts because her duties "were directly related to the due functioning of the legislative process."
The second case involved a former chief of staff to Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.), Christine Niedermeier, who alleged that Baucus had sexually harassed her. Her complaint was dismissed by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in 2001 after the court deemed her termination to be a legislative act, and thus protected by Speech or Debate immunity. The judge in Niedermeier's case noted that the D.C. Circuit "has defined legislative acts to include personnel actions of Members of Congress."
Howie's case against Johnson is now pending before a district court judge in that circuit.
Outside adjudication was a pivotal element in Congress' promise in 1995 to live under the same federal labor laws that govern the private sector and the executive branch. The Congressional Accountability Act applied 11 anti-discrimination, workplace safety and civil rights laws to Congress for the first time. It allows legislative branch employees to either undergo binding arbitration at the Office of Compliance or to go to court after required counseling and mediation. It is the latter option that Campbell, Dayton and now Johnson are challenging on constitutional grounds.
Not all Members who have been presented with this defense have chosen to employ it, however. Earlier this year, a D.C. District Court judged determined that a former Ways and Means Committee staffer's complaints that she was fired because she was a minority and a woman did not constitute discrimination. The case was allowed to proceed, and ultimately be dismissed, on its merits because Chairman Bill Thomas (R-Calif.) decided against invoking Speech or Debate.
"I think you diminish any portion of the Constitution when you use it in a far more expansive way that it was intended," Thomas said after the case was dismissed.
Johnson has taken the opposite approach, arguing that the Congressional Accountability Act "does not contain full or unlimited waiver of sovereign immunity from all employment discrimination suits. Rather," her lawyers wrote, "Congress expressly preserved the immunity granted by the Speech or Debate Clause."
Under the sovereign immunity doctrine, the federal government is immune from suit except as how it consents to be sued. The CAA authorizes legislative branch employees to bring their cases to court. It also specifically states that such authorization "shall not constitute a waiver of sovereign immunity for any other purpose, or of the privileges of any Senator or Member of the House of Representatives under Article 1, Section 6, clause 1, of the Constitution," the Speech or Debate Clause.
Reconciling those arguably competing notions is now the job of a half dozen federal judges.
If the courts ultimately determine that Speech or Debate immunity prohibits Congressional staffers from suing their employers for alleged discrimination or other wrongdoing, only custodial workers, cafeteria employees and the Capitol Police likely will be covered by Congress' promise in 1995 to live under the same workplace laws as the rest of the country and to submit to adjudication in federal court when an employee believes one of those laws has been broken.
Even if that were to happen, the Office of Compliance, an independent agency within the legislative branch, presumably could still adjudicate claims by all Congressional employees. But allowing staffers to go to court was the centerpiece of the legislation, the first plank in House Republicans' 1994 "Contract with America."

In 1996, Deborah Lipstadt (portrayed here by Rachel Weisz), a historian specialising in the study of the Holocaust, was sued by fellow historian and Holocaust denier David Irving for comments made about him in one of her books which he considered to be damaging to his professional reputation. As Irving filed suit in the United Kingdom, where the burden of proof is placed on the accused, the onus was placed on Lipstadt and her legal team to prove the falseness of Irving's claims in a case whose verdict could have been interpreted as a judgement on the truth of the Holocaust in a court of law.
Scripted by Sir David Hare, the cast also includes Timothy Spall as the reptilian Irving, and Andrew Scott and Tom Wilkinson as the solicitor and barrister on whose shoulders rests this awesome responsibility.

The Greenpeace story begins in 1971. A small group of volunteers organised a concert to raise funds to sail a boat from Vancouver to Amchitka to protest against US militarism and the testing of nuclear weapons. Today Greenpeace operates in over 55 countries, funded by donations from over 4 million individual supporters. We share the same core values of non-violence, bearing witness, personal action, and independence – since our founding days.
Norway's sovereign wealth fund — the world's largest – has divested from Singapore-based rubber giant Halcyon Agri Corporation Limited (Halcyon Agri) because of financial risk arising from tropical deforestation. This is also a clear call to other investors of Halcyon Agri to divest from it, and the message also extends to the customers of Halcyon Agri like Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone and Goodyear to seriously reconsider the contribution they're making to deforestation in Cameroon — and to sever all ties to Halcyon Agri.
For the first time, the European Commission (EC) has opened an investigation against a country suspected of not enforcing the EU's timber regulation. The investigation is looking into Belgium and other national authorities that are lagging behind on the enforcement of the timber law. The EC is acting on evidences that Greenpeace brought to its attention.
A mobilised group of 30 scientists from all over the world fought a proposal by the French Development Agency to Central African Forests Initiative (CAFI) from being approved. If approved, this would have meant resulted in 10 to 30 million hectares of the forest in the DRC disappearing.
Together with local partners and Kenya Forestry Services, Greenpeace Africa won a trophy at the Nairobi Trade Fair for the best interpreter of the theme: "Promoting Innovation and Technology in Agriculture and Trade".
In Kenya, Standard Bank (Stanbic) withdrew funding for the Lamu coal-fired power plant. This was achieved in an initiative led by our our partners, 350.org and Save Lamu, who have been at the forefront of the deCOALonize Kenya Campaign, in a contentious court battle against the National Environmental Management Authority (NEMA).
In March 2015, Greenpeace Africa published a report on the illegal logging activities of Compagnie de Commerce et de Transport (CCT) and its Dutch trading partner-Fibois BV. Greenpeace later filed a complaint against Fibois BV in a dutch administrative court for non compliance with the rules of the European Timber Regulation (EUTR) and acting negligently when importing timber from Cameroon. Fibois was therefore sanctioned by the Dutch authorities in 2017. The court used Greenpeace meticulous report as evidence against the timber company.
Three Chinese companies were arrested in the West African region during a joint patrol between Greenpeace and local fisheries inspectors. Evidences of various infringements including illegal nets, shark finning and fishing without a licence were handed over to West African and Chinese authorities.
Greenpeace Africa with the local partners successfully gathered over 18,000 signatures for the petition to the President of Cameroon not to renew the logging concessions of Herakles Farm in the South West Region. This grant was eventually renewed despite our petition, but encouraged local environmental activists to join Greenpeace Africa in opposing the project.
Together with the Environment Investigation Agency in Cameroon, we produced a video to visually highlight the negative consequences of the Herakles project to a national and international audience. There is presently a drawback on the company's expansion initiatives due to limited investment.
Greenpeace Africa raised the alarm bells to the Cameroonian government and UNESCO when Sudcam Hevea was carrying out massive deforestation close to the Dja Reserve, a World Heritage site. Using our letter as evidence, the concerned Senators called in the Minister of Forestry for questioning.
The National Fishing Inspection Agency of Senegal released new regulations requiring newly built distant fishing vessels to provide a proof of adhering to the international tonnage standards.
Greenpeace Africa and Greenpeace East Asia released a report exposing over 30 years of illegal fishing by Chinese companies in West Africa. The report received widespread international attention and in June, our campaigners were invited to the Senegal Ministry of Agriculture to discuss the issue.
After Greenpeace campaigning for years, the Senegalese government took a decision to cancel 29 licenses of the foreign fishing vessels that were suspected of illegal fishing. This victory helped highlight the illegal and unregulated fishing in the West African waters.

* with illustrations and sound effects by Leonardo Amora, a Brazilian artist working on his first Kwik storybook.
So, you're a master of Photoshop and have a great idea for an iPad storybook. Like most, you're probably not a developer, and lack the budget to hire someone to develop your idea. What are your chances of turning your book idea into a reality?
You can download the project files here. Don't forget to install the latest Kwik 2. After unzipping the file, open the CoverA.psd file in Photoshop.
Besides Photoshop CS5 or CS6, you will need to install Kwik, a Photoshop plugin from Kwiksher (www.kwiksher.com). Kwik allows graphic designers, illustrators and any creative folks, to build rich, interactive apps in Photoshop for iOS and Android. Best of all, Kwik allows you to create interactive content without the need for code. Kwik is free for projects with up to 6 pages. Just download and install Kwik via Adobe Extension Manager.
In order to preview your creations, you will need to download Corona SDK (http://www.coronalabs.com/products/corona-sdk/), a popular cross-platform development tool that "reads" Kwik projects and previews your work in a really cool Simulator. Corona SDK is offered as a free and unlimited trial and you'll only need to pay for a subscription once you're ready to publish your work to an app market. With Corona SDK, you can publish your final project to Apple, Google, Amazon and Nook platforms. After downloading Corona, follow the installation instructions.
After installing Kwik, open Photoshop. If the plugin window does not show up automatically, make it visible by going to Menu Window->Extensions->Kwik 2.
Although there are several options, the only ones that matter at this moment are the Location of Corona Simulator and the Location of Kwik's project folders. You can set both using the Browse buttons and pointing to the correct paths. Both are important: the first will open the Simulator when you publish your project. The second will save your project contents in the correct place.
Time for the "fun part". If you haven't opened the file coverA.psd, do it now. It contains the first page of our project.
We are naming our project Afraid, setting it to iPad as main device, landscape orientation, using the current opened document as our first page content. Once you hit Create, Kwik will set the dimensions and resolution according the selected device. You don't need to worry about device sizes and so forth.
There are several new options in the Toolset Bar. Also, you see the project info (name and device), and the middle of the panel now shows the pages of the project (in this case, just CoverA, as our project has only one page at the moment).
As it is impossible to cover all the features in this article, I recommend you check the Learn Kwik 2 page, from Kwiksher's website. In this piece, we will focus only on a handful of features.
Browse and point to the terror.mp3 file (this comes with the tutorial files), select the Short file and Play when page starts checkboxes. In the Controls box, select Loop forever.
From there, go to File->Open-> then point to your project folder. There, you will see a build folder (this is the folder containing all code, audio and images for publishing). Open it and Corona will load your storybook to the Simulator. If you are not seeing the iPad as the simulated device, go to Window->View As and select iPad. You just published your first page with Kwik 2 and the background sound is like already playing.
Storybooks must have animations that support the storytelling or simply bring fun to the reader. In this page, we are going to animate the title and the two buttons. Let's start with the title.
As the name states, linear animations allow objects to move from point A (start) to point B (end). Between the points, you can set duration of the animation, delay and lots of other effects, like easing, for example.
Kwik always uses the current position of the layer as the starting point. In our case, all we need to set is the end position (you can use the sliders or the text fields to enter it), which is the actual position. Then we set the animation duration to 3 seconds, the loop to 1 and the easing to outBounce (it will bounce a little). Create the animation then publish again. Tip: As you have exported all images already, you don't need to re-export them again. Simply disable the Export images button in the Status Bar. Your publishing process will be much faster.
You will see that no animation happened. The reason is because both the start and end points are the same. Let's fix it. Back in Photoshop, move the layer Title content (Y axis) to position -150. You can do that by simply dragging the layer content to the new position or apply a Free Transform (Ctrl+T if you are using Windows, Command+T if you are using a Mac) and enter the numbers directly in the Y field).
Publish the project again and you will see the animated title.
Now that you learned how to animate, let's make the buttons appear after the title animates.
It will hide the button. Do the same for the readMyself grouped layer.
In this scenario, we are setting a delay of 2 seconds (after the page loads) for a transition from full transparent (alpha 0) to fully visible (alpha 100) during 2 seconds. Also, the loop is just once. Publish again and you will see the button fades after 2 seconds.
Do the same for the other layer.
It is common, in storybook apps, to have options allowing users to read the story by themselves, or have the read to me option. This is especially popular for children who enjoy the narrated audio. Our story will offer this too.
For the readMyself button (user will read the content without narration playing in the back), we need to disable the Enable Read to Me checkbox. As we want the user to start reading the book after clicking the button, let's keep the Go to NEXT page automatically option checked.
Click Create in both windows and you will see the button created in the panel. If you cannot see it, it is probably because you are seeing your page list (instead of Components list). To switch it to Components, click the second small icon below the Publish button.
Do the same process for the readToMe grouped layer but now, check the Enable Read to Me checkbox.
Create a name for the page and accept the current opened document as the content of the new page.
The only settings we need are to enable the Read Me file checkbox and set the audio as Short file. Save it and Publish the project again (don't forget to enable Export images in the Status bar).
In the Simulator, click the Read to Me button. It will change pages and automatically start the narration (read to me file) in page2. Notice that we can navigate between pages by swiping them.
Also, repeat the process for the audio they.mp3 but now, disable all checkboxes, setting only the Loop to 1 and enabling the Short file checkbox. This audio will be used when we create our switch button.
Variables are the most precious feature for a developer. They can hold and/or set values that can be used for many things, like conditional execution. In our project, we are going to need one variable to inform us which audio is playing.
We are creating a variable called aPlaying, setting its initial value to 0. A local variable will only exist in the current page.
When our storybook user clicks the switch button, both layers Text01 and LightOn will hide, allowing the layers Text02 and LightOff to show up. Also, audios they.mp3 and lights.mp3 will play accordingly, after the transition.
We are asking to Hide layer LightOn, as faster as possible (duration 0, delay 0) but also, enabling it to show again if it is hidden, or vice-versa, when we checked the Toggle show/hide option. In sum, if the layer is visible and user presses the switch button, the layer will hide. If the layer is hidden, it will show. Create the interaction.
Do exactly the same for layer Text01. After pressing Create, your button Actions list will show two actions.
When layers Text01 and LightOn are transparent, users will be able to see layers Text02 and LightOff.
Besides variables, conditions (IF/THEN/ELSE) are one of the most useful resources available for developers. Kwik allow you to use them without coding. Let's learn how.
As we have different text and, consequently, different audio files for each one of them, in each image, we must establish a way to play the correct audio depending on the image being shown. This is a perfect case for the IF condition.
Remember we created a variable to register which audio was playing? It's time to use it. In our example here we are telling our storybook "IF variable aPlaying is equal 0" the next interactions will play, until it finds an ELSE or END statement.
Now that the condition is created, it is time to create the list of actions that will play while our variable content is zero.
Go to Interactions, Audio. Then select Stop Audio. Select audio lights from the list. We know that a value of zero in our variable means that, potentially, the lights.mp3 is playing. So, before playing another audio file, we are stopping the first one.
Still in the Audio category, select Play Audio. Now select they from the list.
The next step is to change the content of our variable (a value of one means they.mp3 is playing). Go to Interactions, Code. Select Edit Variable. Set the value of our variable to 1.
This is similar to our original IF statement. The only change here is the value of our variable, now set to 1 in the comparison field. Reading it "in English", we are saying "if variable aPlaying equals 1," the following list of actions will play.
Follow the steps above and create a Stop Audio for the "they" audio. Then a Play Audio for the "lights" audio. Lastly, Edit Variable and set the value to 0.
In order to end our IF statement, we must to tell Kwik about it. Go to Interactions, Condition then select END. Create the button, and then Publish again.
Congratulations! You just create your first storybook for iPad without ANY code*!

Vision related quotes throughout the ages.
I started concentrating so hard on my vision that I lost sight.
Each eye can have its vision separately; but when we are looking at anything our vision, which in itself is divided, joins up and unites in order to give itself as a whole to the object that is put before it.
Each today, well-lived, makes yesterday a dream of happiness and each tomorrow a vision of hope. Look, therefore, to this one day, for it and it alone is life.
Yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision, but today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.
When it comes to spotting a blonde hair on a man's coat, every wife has 20-20 vision.
Words are like eyeglasses, they blur everything that they do not make clear.
There is nothing like the sight of an old enemy down on his luck.
What's so remarkable about Love at first sight? It's when people have been looking at each other for years that it becomes remarkable.

The d-day is approaching...I'll be leaving for JB for a bowling tournament this Friday on a morning flight. The nervousness is kicking in and I hope I can perform well in the tournament. Apparently, my thumb is swollen due to the intensive training but it's getting much better today. I hope it'll fully recover just in time. This is going to be the last time for me to represent the institute in such competition because I'll be leaving for UKM soon. So, everybody is hoping that I'll contribute at least a medal for the team. Pressure...pressure...Anyhow, may the luck be with me! Lol..
The gala night was over and I had fun that night except for the opening part thingy when we experienced small technical problem which eventually affected the whole thing. My female counterpart and I were the first ones to enter the ballroom in style when the not-suppose-to-happen problem suddenly came and ruined (well...not that bad actually) the vogue and elegant entrance walk. *Sigh* Let bygones be bygones...That very night I also won myself a big hamper during the lucky draw session which was conducted by me! Lols...I was on the stage together with the guest of honour. He picked the lucky number - 067. I was totally forgotten about my ticket which I left on the dinner table prior to the lucky draw session. So, I was announcing, "This lucky person holds the ticket with the lucky numbers of 0...6...7!" There was a short silence when one of my acquaintances at the dinner table shouted, "Steve, that's your number!!" What a night!

Last month I attended the Global Competitiveness Forum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and sat on a Panel discussing "Conscious Capitalism" with Sally Osberg from Skoll, Bright Simons from IMANI, Michael Strong from FLOW and Mabel van Oranje from The Elders. It was during preparation for a short ten minute talk that my concept of "reluctant innovators" took shape, something I blogged about in more detail here.
Here's the video of that introduction (you can also watch on YouTube), in which I briefly touch on our work with FrontlineSMS and why we focus on the "social mobile long tail". It ends with a summary of some of the challenges entrepreneurs and innovators face working in the mobile-for-development field – nasties such as business models, measuring impact and scale.
Amazing post. I've learned some of the challenges of entrepreneurs and innovators face working in the mobile. It is really impressive and informative. Keep it up.

Q: 2-D alpha map examples for blending two overlayed images in MATLAB I would like to blend two images, one is smaller and is completely enclosed by the larger one, Assume the both are rectangular. I would like to blend these two so that there is a smooth transition in a rectangular band around the smaller image. I am trying to do this in MATLAB.
For example here two images are shown on top of each other, orange and black mages:

I would like to create a transition band around the orange image such that at the very outward boundaries of the band the alpha map for the orange image has a value of 0 and for very inward boundaries have value of 1 and there is a smooth transition from 0 to one inside the gray band that is shown below:

I am looking for a map for the gray area probably a 2-D matrix that has values between 0 and 1. Is there any equation based or ready made such matrix?
I know I can create a simple linear transition for a vertical or horizontal band for example if the X shows the x-coordinate of the left most edge of the inner image and my blending width is W then I can use this:
alpha(x) = (x-X)/W for X<x<X+W
           1 for x > X+W

But how to create such an alpha in 2-D?

Streamer Adin Ross is banned from Twitch for an unknown reason
Ross called out Twitch for playing favorites just days ago.
Image: Adin Ross
Streamer Adin Ross has had a weird few months. In December last year, he announced he would be interviewing Kanye West, who clearly stood out with his comments. Then, earlier this month, he supported Andrew Tate, who was recently arrested in Romania for human trafficking. Now the streamer finds himself banned from Twitch, and the reason is not entirely clear.
As confirmed by StreamerBans on Twitter, Ross' Twitch account was banned for the seventh time, however, no direct reason was provided. Considering the streamer's recent history, the ban could have been put in place for any number of reasons. However, just a few days ago, Ross attacked Twitch for selectively supporting certain content creators, while failing to support others, like himself.
GAME VIDEO OF THE DAY
RELATED: Limmy Is the Antidote to Modern Streaming Culture
"Twitch never followed me, they don't put me on the homepage. Swear, they don't follow me," Ross said in an episode of the Full Send podcast (thanks, Dexerto). "Why Kai, myself, xQc, Speed, why aren't we being offered multi-million dollar deals?" he continued. "But here's what Twitch does with Kai: Twitch puts Kai on the homepage, they tweet and follow him. Sounds awesome, right? Cool, it's showing fake love, why doesn't it get not a multi-million dollar contract?
While these comments directly attack Twitch and its business decisions, it is by no means confirmed that they were the ones who got Ross banned. It could very well be a combination of reasons or an entirely separate incident.
As for his interview with Kanye West, no date has yet been set, but it's not hard to imagine what West will have to say about it. He's the same man that even Alex Ross found a bit too extreme when he appeared as a guest on his podcast, saying, "I see good things about Hitler. Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler.
Hopefully banning Ross means there's one less way for West to spit out his trash. However, Ross is a pretty big name for Twitch, and his previous bans have been overturned in the past.

This New Design Is S'well!
We love S'well bottles for their easy to handle design and the way they keep our water ice cold during a workout.

That's why we are SUPER excited about the new S'well Sports line that features a "soft touch" texture, cool ombre designs and yes, FINALLY an easy to pop top for instant hydration on the go.

Taking good care of invoices inside your company can in some cases be frantic more about the author, discouraging and time intensive. This does not have to be the case while you may get invoicing software program that can enable make your do the job a lot easier. Like a smaller business operator you've a number of various remedies to choose from about invoicing software package.
Countless smaller corporations at this time use handwritten invoices, or some sort of office environment template when producing invoices. The foremost downside of these alternatives will be the really need to enter each detail when generating a different invoice. Client, write-up, date, and so forth. all must be written/entered each time. Finding previous invoices or storing existing invoices is a possible nightmare because of the dearth of lookup services.
Utilizing a good invoicing alternative allows you to definitely enter purchaser details, stock content articles region info and so on. 1 time and for all. If you publish a different invoice you simply must enter the client ID, plus the articles bought (or obtain them making use of the search attributes) and allow the program tackle the rest. This could show to generally be a significant time-saver for the corporation, and as a Tiny Small business Operator paperwork is never the highest priority, so preserving time here is crucial.
Invoicing application also provides the opportunity to enter a recurring bill, meaning that for those who have repeat small business within the exact same purchaser routinely, you simply must make the main bill, and assign a time frame for that relaxation. The program will now immediately create the recurring invoices for you personally, conserving you a lot more time. This attribute is great for compact support corporations such as cleansing, or yard function where you really have to compose the same bill just about every week/month, but other organizations will find the function really effective.

Golfer's Elbow is pain and tenderness on the inside of the elbow. The pain can be intermittent and mild, or it can be very severe and constant.
Like Tennis Elbow, Golfer's Elbow is caused by overload to the tendon that attaches the flexor muscles of the forearm to the elbow. Gripping activities loads the flexor tendon, and either doing a sudden increase in gripping activities or the same gripping activity for a long time can cause the tendon to become irritated and painful.
Altering activities can reduce the stress on the tendon, and taping techniques or acupuncture can reduce pain. Specific exercises to strengthen the tendon can help increase it's ability to withstand load preventing the problem from becoming persistent and chronic.

Here's How Much a Marijuana Tourism Vacation Will Cost You In Colorado
ByMatt Essert
In case you've been living in a no-Internet cave until 10 second ago — pot is legal in Colorado! But what if you don't live in the Rocky Mountain state? Don't worry! Though we're only two weeks into pot legalization in Colorado, a number of weed tourist options have already become available.
Matt Brown recently started My420Tours, one of the many weed tourism services offered in Colorado. For roughly $1,200, guests can sign up for a four-day "Colorado Cannabis Sampler" tour that will chauffeur visitors to various growing locations and provide same, legal places to try different weed strains (smoking outside in public is not permitted and punishable with a $150 fine). My420Tours will also be offering Valentine's Day packages that will include ballet tickets, a couples' massage, and a glass-blowing class where people can make wine glasses or personalized bongs, all for somewhere between $3,000 and $5,000.
Colorado Green Tours also offers bus tours for about $400, which includes visits to several of the newly opened legal dispensaries and a safe place to light up, but does not include the actual weed (an eighth of which is going to cost you about $65). "The demand for our service has been nearly overwhelming — there's a tidal wave," said Peter Johnson of Colorado Green Tours.
Another service, Colorado Highlife has been offering "affordable and discreet excursions" since April, which, for $1,200, includes a limo to pick you up from your hotel and give you a chauffeured ride to local highly-hailed ski resorts, complete with snacks, soda and complimentary pot.
The AP also reported that one company offers a week-long excursion that will take a group of customers to the state's finest glass-blowing shops where elaborate smoking pipes are made, other areas of the state's pot industry, and ski resorts — for $10,000.
And the local government isn't shy about it either. Although Denver's website is filled with warnings about pot smoking rules and regulation, the city is also providing visitors with a plethora of information — the tourist desk at the Denver International Airport has a list of roughly 20 places in the city to legally purchase weed.
Finding a safe space to smoke could be a major issue for visitors though. Currently, there's only about 600 hotel rooms in all of Denver in which smoking is allowed, and it's unclear if that will change.
"I haven't really decided," said Dan King, owner of The Boulder Outlook Hotel. "It's possible that we can designate rooms where marijuana is allowed if there's enough demand."
This sure gives a whole new meaning to visit to the Mile "High" City.

lingering distance. – static confusion.
it's that space between coming from somewhere i knew i didn't want to be to the place where i am still not sure i want to be.
it's that period of suspense where i am heading in some unknown direction but don't necessarily mind taking wrong turns or even the long way around.
it's that moment of silence between stages of life transition; traveling from one stop to the next, appreciating being lost in my own thoughts – a lone traveler of sorts.
it's that something that i can't really describe or explain…that something that still scares me, inspires me. that something that still leaves me, well, wandering…conflicted but free…knowing that not enough time has passed to return. or to move forward for that matter.
lingering distance…it is comforting because i don't have to commit, terrifying because it means i have let go. it is also a sign of growth however as in looking back i can see how far i've come. yet perhaps it is also a sign of immaturity as i refuse to close the gap and settle down; stubbornly avoiding the life clock. because really, the only time that matters to me is where i am – which is being ever-present; right here, right now.
everything else i suppose will do one of two things: continue to linger or quietly fade away. and until i am ready to embrace resuming the journey i just have to believe that the important things will stay the same.

Macro Roundup (Jan 5)
The U.S. dollar held at lower levels on Wednesday after minutes from the Federal Reserve's December meeting offered no surprises or new information about the size of its expected rate hike in February.
SHANGHAI, Jan 5 —This is a roundup of global macroeconomic news last night and what is expected today.
The Fed hiked rates by 50 basis points last month and Fed officials agreed a slower pace of interest rate increases would allow them to continue increasing the cost of credit to control inflation in a gradual way meant to limit the risks to economic growth.
The minutes also put a premium on explaining that the decision to move to smaller rate increases should not be construed by investors or the public at large as a weakening of the central bank's commitment to bringing inflation back to the 2% target.
The minutes also did little to change expectations for the Fed's February meeting. Fed fund futures traders are pricing in a 67% likelihood that the U.S. central bank will continue to slow the pace of its rate hikes in February to 25 basis points. The 50 basis-point hike in December followed four consecutive 75 basis-point increases.
Stock futures are flat Wednesday night as investors looked beyond the hawkishness of the Federal Reserve's meeting minutes released in the afternoon toward labor data coming later this week.
Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 36 points, trading down around 0.1%. S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 futures both also traded down 0.1%.
The moves follow a choppy trading session. Markets had been down early in the day on the back of a mixed bag of economic data, but stock rose into the closing bell. The Dow ended the day up 133 points, or 0.4%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq added 0.8% and 0.7%, respectively.
Stocks were mainly trading up in the afternoon. But gave up some of their gains following the release of minutes from the Fed's December meeting, which showed the central bank remained committed to higher interest rates for "some time."
Oil fell by more than $4 a barrel on Wednesday, with Brent suffering its biggest percentage loss in the first two trading days of the year since 1991, as demand concerns linked to the global economy and rising Covid-19 cases in China crushed crude prices.
Brent futures settled at $77.84 a barrel, falling $4.26, or 5.2%. U.S. crude settled at $72.84 a barrel, shedding $4.09, or 5.3%.
Brent fell by about 9.4%, its greatest two-day loss at the start of the year since January 1991, according to Refinitiv Eikon data.
Gold held near seven-month highs reached on Wednesday after the minutes of the Federal Reserve's last meeting showed all its policymakers remained committed to fighting inflation, but agreed on the need to slow rate hikes in 2023.
Spot gold last rose 0.93% to $1,855.55 per ounce, having risen as much as 1.4% earlier to its highest price since June 13.
U.S. gold futures settled up 0.7% at $1,859.
European markets closed higher on Wednesday as inflation data out of France and Germany indicated that consumer price increases across the euro zone are slowing.
The pan-European Stoxx 600 closed up 1.4%, with retail stocks adding 3.3% to lead gains as most sectors and major bourses ended in positive territory. Oil and gas stocks, however, fell 3.1%.
Macro Roundup (Jun 9)
The dollar slipped against a basket of major currencies for a second straight day on Wednesday but still managed to hit a fresh 20-year high against the yen, while the euro strengthened ahead of a policy announcement by the European Central Bank.
Jun 9, 2022 09:30 CST
The Philippines to Start Selling Idle Government-Owned Mining Assets from 2023
The Philippines' mining regulator said Wednesday that the country will start selling its idle mining assets held by the government in 2023 as part of a plan to restructure the country's mineral sector, aiming to boost the sector's role in driving economic growth.
Energy Transition under Pressure, India Reportedly to Cut Power Generation from at Least 81 Coal-Fired Plants
India plans to reduce the power generation capacity of at least 81 coal-fired power companies over the next four years.
Macro Roundup (May 31)
The dollar nursed last week's losses on Monday and was headed for its first monthly drop in five months as investors have scaled back bets that rising U.S. rates will spur further gains and as fears of a global recession have receded a little.
The U.S. dollar edged lower on Thursday as markets considered whether the Federal Reserve might slow or even pause its tightening cycle in the second half of the year, which would weaken the allure of the safe haven currency.
Sky-High Ocean Freight Has Fallen for 17 Consecutive Weeks, But May Rebound Once Shanghai Lifts Covid Lockdown
SHANGHAI, May 17(SMM) - Ocean freight has fallen recently after a drastic spike earlier this year, and more ships have become available for renting.
National Power Consumption Fell by 1.3% on the Year
China's National Energy Administration: In April, national power consumption was 636.2 billion kWh, down 1.3% year-on-year.
The U.S. dollar reached a new 20-year high on Monday as risk-off sentiment stemming in part from concerns over the Federal Reserve's ability to combat high inflation boosted the greenback's safe-haven appeal.
Macro Roundup (Apr 29)
The dollar index hit its highest level since 2002 on Thursday as the dollar shot to two-decade highs on the yen after the Bank of Japan (BOJ) doubled-down on its super-low yield policy by offering to buy endless amounts of bonds every session as needed.
PBoC: Will Increase Support to Real Economy as A Response to Recent Financial Market Volatility
he person in charge of the People's Bank of China (PBoC) said that they are concerned about the recent fluctuations in the financial market, which are mainly the result of investors' expectations and sentiments.

Meet the Hungarian woman who's allergic to water
She's allergic to any watery liquids including her own sweat and tears!
Valentina Bones. (PHOTO: CATERS/WWW.MAGAZINEFEATURES.CO.ZA) ~
It wasn't until 2007 that photographer Valentina Bones (25), who moved to California from Hungary, discovered she had aquagenic urticaria – a rare condition in which hives or a rash develop rapidly after the skin is exposed to water of any temperature, according to Rare Diseases.
"I was born and raised in Europe, where I never had any allergies or skin problems. Shortly after I moved to America in 2007, I started getting small red rashes on my face after getting in coats with water or sweat," Valentina said.
When she turned 17, Valentina noticed she was getting an allergic reaction to water, which her mother thought was "something in the water".
Initially their doctor believed it was probably a vitamin deficiency.
A rash develops within two minutes of her skin being exposed to heat as opposed to cold, which she can tolerate for 20 to 30 minutes without getting a rash.
Her condition has caused strangers to stare at her, which has made Valentina feel very insecure.
"For me, any liquid triggers aquagenic urticaria; water, sweat, saliva and even juice from a juicy fruit. I don't do any sports or physical activity I know will result in me getting unwanted attention due to how my skin looks.
"I took night classes in college because it was too hot and humid in the classroom during the day. As long as my body stays dry, my allergy to water doesn't make my life less happy.
"By the time I was 18, it affected my face, chest and stomach area. The rashes are red, itching and burning. By the time I was 22, it affected 80 percent of my body; arms and back included.
"I tried different allergy and herbal medication, but nothing seemed to stop the itching, not even Aloe Vera or itching cream.
"After years of trying different methods to ease the pain and itching, I've developed the habit to limit my contact with water as much as I can; stay indoors during a rainy season and wear light clothing when it's hot outside," she said.
The 25-year-old explained her daily routine, including how she takes a shower.
"The most common question I get when I tell someone I have water allergies is how do I shower? In the summer I shower with cold water, at an average time.
"In the winter I either use wet washcloths or I shower with slightly warm but not hot water for less than three minutes.
"I wash my hair separately by bending over in the tub so I don't have to spend extra time in the shower with water getting in contact with my skin.
"I take bubble baths maybe twice a year as a treat, on my birthday or Christmas. Which makes me really sad because I adore bath bombs; you can find me at a Lush store smelling everything."
Valentina says her growing social media presence has helped raise awareness for the rare condition.
"Aquagenic urticaria is so rare that a few years ago it didn't even have a name. I remember googling 'water allergies' when I was young to find more information about it.
"All that came up on Wikipedia was simply water allergy with barely any information. All I could find on it was that it's very rare, it affects one in 23 million people and there's no cure.
"With the internet and social media growing at an enormous speed, more and more people have been coming forward with this allergy and finally someone named it."

Want an inside look at how The Impossible Project makes its instant film? The folks over at Highsnobiety recently paid a visit to the company's factory in Enschede, which it purchased from Polaroid and rebooted. The 3-minute video above shows various steps of the instant film creation process, from development, to assembly, to boxing it up for shipping.
The Impossible Project also says that they're working on developing their own instant camera, and plan to have it available to photographers in 2016.

Hot Rod News
Australian Street Machine Drag Challenge, the Intro
Written by Povi Pullinen on November 12, 2018
We all know the ultimate torture test that is HOT ROD Drag Week: The grueling five-day competition where we pit hundreds of the toughest and fastest street-going cars against each other to see who will ultimately be crowned America's quickest. We come out in droves to compete, spectate, or secretly tune into the live feed while our bosses aren't watching. But did you know there's a similar event held Down Under each year?
It's called Drag Challenge, and it's run by the folks at the Australian magazine for all things muscle and modified; Street Machine. A lot of it is inspired by Drag Week but as always, the Australians just do it a little different.
Street Machine Drag Challenge started in 2014 when it kicked off with only 18 cars and has grown over the years, toured through various parts of the country and this year's event will front a field of 277 entrants. The times are faster, the competition tighter, and the action both on and off the track is nothing short of captivating.
The format is similar to Drag Week with five days and five tracks, but the country is very sparsely populated outside the major cities, meaning there's limited venues with varying degrees of quality. This year will see the entrants racing quarter-mile, eighth-mile and 1000ft. Rather than an average ET for the five days, it's similar to golf – the lowest total of the five ETs added up will crown Australia's quickest street car.
There's similar road sections with checkpoints, and the total distance tiptoes around the 1500km range (that's just over 900mi for us). Driving through rural areas in Australia, you're bound to see unique landscapes and of course a fair share of awesome wildlife like koalas and kangaroos!
Besides the backdrop, the cars that make up the event are like nothing you'll see at home. Australian-built Fords and Holdens (part of GM) are the backbone of the nation's road-going vehicles but you will see some USA muscle and Japanese imports pockmarking the field. Aside from the usual suspects engine-wise (small blocks, big blocks, LS mills) you'll also see a few unique choices like 2JZs, RB30s, indigenous inline-sixes, rotaries and the infamous Barra six-banger. The Aussies are well known for their 'different' taste in racing platforms, with most of these high-power rides being built out of four-door, family-style cars or utes (coupe-utility trucks). Think 1,200hp in mom's old grocery getter!
Road laws are far stricter Down Under and the local cops don't take much of a liking to outlandish race cars running down the highways. This means many of the modifications need to be subtle. Most cars run a sleeper look despite packing huge under-the-hood power, big tubs and rollcages. Outside of the racing wheels, the odd whine of a supercharger, or maybe a small air cleaner sticking out of the hood, you'd be forgiven to think a lot of these are mild streeters or even restored stockers.
However they're anything but tame, with the fastest entrants running well into the sevens and knocking on 200mph top end speeds. Out of the 277 registered competitors there is a cutoff of 11.99sec for every class. That's a remarkable turn out of super-fast, street-driven cars given the population of the country is less than a tenth of USA!
We've just arrived at Calder Park in Melbourne, Victoria to catch the last hours of the inspection day and ready ourselves for the incoming week of insanity. This year the entrants will stay in the state of Victoria, starting at Calder Park, heading to the newly-built Swan Hill and then out to Mildura's Sunset Strip before doubling back along a different route.
You may have seen both myself (Povi Pullinen) and videographer Luke Nieuwhof at HOT ROD Drag Week over the past few years, as we're both Aussie expats now living in the USA. We've flown back to our homeland to aim our lenses at Drag Challenge and over the course of the week we'll be here to cover all the action, dive deeper into Aussie street machine culture, and maybe explain what a 'sanga' or a 'drongo' is. Stay tuned!

A NEW website has been set up by Huntingdonshire Regional College to keep the community up to date with the refurbishment of the California Road campus.
The £3million building project, which started during half term week, will create a new glazed exterior to the college as well as new internal areas, including classrooms and seminar rooms.
Externally, the entrance area to the college is being re-modelled, creating new car parking, grass areas and an 'urban plaza' adjacent to the new entrance area.
The college said the website features a week by week guide to the work, possible disruptions and a progress picture gallery.
Visitors will also be able to sign for updates as well as ask questions to the project team.
Money for the work has been provided with a grant from the Skills Funding Agency. A more ambitious rebuild project had to be shelved after the Learning and Skills Council overspent its budget.
