This Is How Taylor Swift Avoided Katy Perry and John Mayer at Drake's Birthday Party
New squad, who dis?
Former Degrassi actor Drake turned 30 on Monday, and naturally the event was worthy of a major party full of major celebrities. But herding a flock of celebs into a club is an art, and Drake isn't the best shepherd—which is why Katy Perry, John Mayer, and Taylor Swift ended up breathing the same air (opens in new tab).
As you presumably know, Taylor Swift doesn't get along (opens in new tab) with Katy Perry and their shared ex-boyfriend Mayer, and reportedly spent the entire party delicately avoiding them once she realized they were in attendance. "Taylor stayed at her table [with the] crew she came with," a source tells Us Weekly (opens in new tab). "Taylor was ready to party when she got there, but when she realized Katy and John were there, she just stayed put at her table."
Apparently, the star was at the event with friends, and "didn't want to make a big scene and leave when she saw they were there too."
^ Simpler times.
Meanwhile, Us Weekly's source reports that "Katy didn't care that Taylor was there" because "she's above all that," and claims she even found a moment to make nice with John Mayer. "John approached Katy and they talked—they're on good terms. Seeing John is like seeing an old friend."
Honestly, it's getting to the point where seeing this feud pop up on the internet every few months is also like seeing an old friend, that's how long it's been going on for.

Duck Jazz Festival-Great Music
Bria Skonberg as the Duck Jazz Festival.
After two days of great music at the Mustang Music Festival it seemed as though the Duck Jazz Festival on Sunday would be playing second fiddle to the Corolla show. But The 9th annual version of the oldest continual music festival on the Outer Banks played second fiddle to no one.
With sax great Maceo Parker headlining the days music, a virtual guarantee of a memorable day of sounds was on hand. Funky—and surprisingly funny—Parker is the consummate showman, understanding what the audience wants, and knowing how to package it so everyone has fun.
Parker was the music director and sax player for James Brown for years and that influence was everywhere in his music—and it was music that had the Duck Jazz crowd up and dancing.
Parker wasn't the only star performance of the day. Bria Skonberg, with her sweet yet sultry jazz voice and virtuoso trumpet performance was every bit as good as Parker.
What really made both performances standout were the musicians with the headliners on stage.
It's difficult to pick out any one musician who really stood out . . . but we'll do it anyway.
With Skonberg—Evan Arntzen on sax and clarinet was fantastic.
Bruno Speight, guitarist for the Maceo Parker Band, was playing on another dimension. His solo was otherworldly and showed a mastery of guitar that is truly rare.
Mark Columbus Day Weekend on your calendars for next year. It's never too early to plan.

Jewish Studies at Middlebury sponsored and cosponsored eight events throughout the past academic year, thanks to generous support from the Quint Foundation and the Aquinnah Fund, as well as the efforts of several colleagues both within Jewish Studies and in other programs.
The annual Quint Lecture was given by Professor Jonathan Sarna, who provided a thought-provoking talk titled "Is America Different? Anti-Semitism in the United States in Historical Perspective." The topic fostered lively discussion afterward at our yearly banquet.
The visit by Roman Kent, chairman of the American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors, was another notable event. Kent spoke about his experiences during the Holocaust as well as about his many subsequent philanthropic efforts. Several students also had the unique opportunity to talk with Kent in smaller settings. Overall, this was a successful year of events in Jewish Studies at Middlebury.

Spine Exercises and Rehabilitation - Matthew D. Hepler, M.D.
When you have back pain you want it to stop. Rest, medications, steroids and sometimes surgery are all very effective treatments but only exercise improves the health of your spine and provides long term function. Establishing a regular exercise regimen that includes range of motion, strengthening, and aerobic conditioning is the single most important thing you can do not just for your spine but your overall health, fitness, and quality of life.
The difficulty, of course, is progressing with an exercise regimen that does not aggravate a spine or other joint related problem causing more injury and pain. This must be a gradual and thoughtful process that is tailored to each individual and his/her specific condition and diagnosis. These efforts require careful coordination with your spine specialist, physical therapist, and training instructors. The guiding principle is to work around, not through pain, as you regain motion and flexibility, establish strength and a solid core, develop normal posture and balance, and improve aerobic fitness.
After your doctor has treated your spine condition and the pain improves he will most likely recommend physical therapy to help guide you through the initial stages of your spine rehabilitation efforts. This usually involves 2 visits/wk for 2-4 weeks as the therapist begins working on range of motion and strengthening exercises and provides education on back mechanics, injury prevention, and core strengthening. Handouts for the lumbar spine and cervical spine will help familiarize you with some of these exercises.
Some conditions such as disc herniations will initially focus on McKenzie extension based exercises while other conditions such as spondylolysis or spondylolisthesis focus on Williams flexion based exercises. Your doctor will help determine the most effective therapy program and often recommend a follow up visit to evaluate your progress and make further recommendations or treatments.
Once you've completed physical therapy is time to develop a home exercise program. This should include range of motion and flexibility, strengthening (especially the core), and aerobic conditioning. Everyone is different and a 38 yo construction worker will have different needs and goals than a 72 yo golfer. Similarly, each person's goals and interests will evolve over time and your exercise regimen will need to evolve with these changes as well. Numerous books and CDs are available to help explore this options and find a program that's right for you.

Border Patrol apprehends dozens of Haitian immigrants who landed in Puerto Rico
The encounter came just three days after Border Patrol agents apprehended another group of Haitian migrants
By Bradford Betz | Fox News
U.S. Border Patrol agents apprehended dozens of mostly Haitian migrants after they disembarked in Puerto Rico over the weekend.
Ramey Station agents and officers from the Puerto Rico Police Department discovered a makeshift "yola" type vessel arriving at Combate Beach on the island's west coast on Saturday.

Upon inspection Border Patrol Agents encountered 60 migrants. Thirty-four men, 22 women, and three children – including one who was unaccompanied – said they were from Haiti, while one adult female said she was from the Dominican Republic.
SENIOR DHS OFFICIAL PREDICTS LIFTING TITLE 42 WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO DROP IN BORDER CROSSINGS
The agents transported the migrants to the Ramey Station for immigration processing and removal. The encounter came just three days after Border Patrol agents apprehended another group of Haitian migrants disembarking in Rincon, about an hour and a half's drive north of Combate Beach.
"People who venture to sea to enter the United States illegally not only expose themselves to being victims of smuggling organizations, but they also risk the lives of the law enforcement men and women who rescue them," Scott Garrett, Action Chief Patrol Agent for Ramey Sector, said in a statement.
The Ramey Sector is the only Border Patrol Sector located outside the continental United States. No further details on the apprehension were released.

A British engineer, Alvin Smith, has developed a simple system, called Searaser, which uses ocean wave energy to produce electricity on demand – including so-called baseload power – even at times when the sea is calm.
The system is based on a two-part pump. The bottom part of the pump is anchored to the ocean floor. The top part moves up and down with the motion of the waves and drives a piston within a cylinder in the bottom section. This action is used to pump water to a reservoir on a coastal cliff or hilltop.
Water from the reservoir is released as required to drive a conventional hydroelectric turbine.
As well as the ability to produce electricity at any time, the system avoids having complex equipment, such as turbines, exposed to the harsh conditions of the ocean.
A prototype system has been developed and has succeeded in pumping water to a height of 50 metres. The full-sized system will be able to pump water to a height of 200 metres. The developers of the system claim that a single, full-sized system will be able to supply sufficient electricity to power 470 households.
Seems like a simple but useful strategy, and maybe the CETO system from Carnegie could be adapted to using the same principle of raising water to another level.
And the same principle of storing water in a reservoir could be used with windmills – rather then directly driving a turbine. Wind would then be able to supply "baseload" or electricity on demand at any time.


BERLIN (AP) — Two months before national elections, German Chancellor Angela Merkel found herself besieged by questions about U.S. spying, insisting Friday that she has not been remiss in confronting the Americans about their surveillance activities.
The chancellor's traditional 1 ½-hour summer news conference was dominated by questions about National Security Agency snooping, including allegations by NSA leaker Edward Snowden that the U.S. has been spying on its European allies.
Merkel's opponents in the Sept. 22 parliamentary elections have seized on the issue, asserting that she has not done enough to protect Germans' privacy. Although polls show Merkel with a comfortable lead, the issue has created turbulence in what had looked like a smooth glide to a third term as chancellor.
Protecting personal data is an especially sensitive topic in Germany because of abuses by communist East Germany's secret police, the Stasi, and the Nazis' Gestapo.
Merkel insisted her government is awaiting answers from the U.S. to detailed questions about the NSA's activities and hopes to receive them "as soon as possible" — but with no specific deadline.
Last week, Merkel sent her interior minister, Hans-Peter Friedrich, to Washington to confer with top U.S. officials. Friedrich came away pointing to the importance of intelligence in preventing attacks — prompting Merkel's center-left opponents to intensify criticism over what they portrayed as an insufficient effort to protect Germans' personal data.
Her opponents also are questioning assertions by Merkel and other officials that they knew nothing before Snowden's disclosures. The government has been peppered this week with questions over details of those programs, with Snowden's allegations overshadowing such issues as Europe's laggard economy.
"My job is to ensure people in Germany know that German law applies on German soil, and that applies to everyone here," Merkel said. Still, she added, "it is not my job to familiarize myself with the details of PRISM," referring to one of the NSA programs.
Merkel has also sought to keep the issue from damaging relations with the U.S.
"I get the impression that she is simply sitting waiting in the chancellery for our American partners to inform her," he told broadcaster RBB Inforadio.

1. Provides protection from personal liability to all members.
2. Provides the tax benefits of a partnership.
3. Provides charging order protection to help shield the assets of the LLC.
Please note, we are not tax professionals or attorneys so ALWAYS check with your trusted professionals for your specific situation. In most cases, holding property in an LLC will provide good protection for your personal and investment property.
Please click like if you hold any property in an LLC.
In real estate investing, the focus should be finding "GREAT" deals. Never fall in love with a property. The numbers must work. Close your eyes and run the numbers. In most cases it takes time to realize a good return on a real estate investment but it's worth the wait.
Take a look at the cap rate or capitalization rate. The cap rate is the return on the property based on the income it will generate. It is used to estimate the potential return on investment.
To calculate the cap rate, divide the net income by the total value of the property. Keep in mind that as the property value increases your cap rate will decrease, which at first glance would seem like a bad thing, but it isn't because your property has increased in value resulting in an increase of your net worth. When this happens sometimes it's good to sell the property and invest again!
Please share the cap rate of your investments in the comments section if you have commercial property.
Nervous about buying a property, rehabbing it then either selling it or renting it out? Just not cut out to be the big, bad landlord or seller? What if you could just invest in real estate without the leg work? You can!
The vehicle for this type of investment is called "real estate investment trusts" or REIT. A REIT can buy, develop, manage and sell assets in real estate. It is similar to other security offerings but instead of investing in a single company, you are purchasing a portion of a managed pool of real estate.
This pool of real estate can generate income through renting, leasing and selling of property. Then fund distribution occurs regularly to the REIT holder. Some very good news is that REITs MUST distribute at least 90% of their yearly taxable income, to their shareholders in the form of dividends. Nice!
Investing in REITs is a good way to get diversification without the leg work. Sit back and let someone else do it!
Please comment your thoughts on REITs.
Want to be "in the know"?
How do you find out what is going on in the real estate market you are targeting? Some can be learned from your real estate professional, but that is only one person's perspective. Why not get the perspective of many people in the real estate industry in your target market? Where would you go?
The local Real Estate Investor's Association meeting! There are real estate investment groups meeting all around the country. The National Real Estate Investor's Association website can direct you to a meeting in your target area. Check one out! These meetings can be a great resource to gain knowledge about your area, find deals or help build your team.
Please comment any real estate tips or tricks that you have learned from a real estate investor's meeting.
Be sure to carefully build your real estate investment team. You will need to work with others to be successful. Find professional, capable people in the following categories: Real Estate Attorney, Title company, Real Estate Broker, Mortgage Broker, Hard Money Lender, Private Lenders, Clean out crew, Demolition crew, Insurance agent, Property Management, Plumber, Electrician, and Construction companies.
There is something to be said for brand spanking new! Speculative or spec home building can be very profitable under the right market conditions and in the right locations. It is a blast to design and build something beautiful with all the bells and whistles, then sell at full retail (hopefully). People love new houses.
Here you will be looking for a good piece of land in a nice neighborhood. Depending on your comfort level, hire either a general contractor for the entire job or sub contract with various companies yourself to complete the construction. Be sure the house you build is not at the top of the market (biggest house on the block), you should build a moderate home for the neighborhood. You will need comparable homes or "comps" to make sure the value of your home appraises at the value you intended. Always do your homework in your market to make sure the current conditions will yield good results. Look for a high demand, low inventory market to give you the best chance of success.
Are there any neighborhoods that you feel would be a good market for a spec house? Please comment.

Pensacola man arrested on suspicion of inappropriately touching young girls

Pensacola man arrested on suspicion of inappropriately touching young girls A 27-year-old Pensacola man was arrested after he allegedly inappropriately touched two underage girls while they sat in his lap.

Nicholas Moore(Photo: Courtesy of Escambia County Jail)
Nicholas Joe Moore was wanted by the Escambia County Sheriff's Office for acts that allegedly occurred between March 2013 and February 2015, according to an ECSO arrest report. During that time period, authorities claim Moore would put the girls on his lap when they visited him in his RV and would unbutton their pants and touch them in a sexual manner.
Authorities interviewed two girls, according to the report. Their ages and relationship to Moore were redacted to protect their identities. One of the girls was too upset to speak to the investigator, and had to use an anatomical diagram to point out what had happened to her.
Authorities also reviewed text messages between two people, one of whom allegedly wrote in the texts that Moore had told her that he inappropriately touched the girls. The other person told the investigators he had observed Moore allowing both girls to sit in his lap.
A warrant was issued for Moore's arrest and he was booked into the Escambia County Jail on Tuesday. He was charged with sexual assault on a victim 12 years of age or older and sexual assault on a victim 12 years of age or older using a weapon or force. He was being held Thursday on a $204,500 bond.

The 2018 Volvo XC40 is certainly a hotly anticipated luxury SUV. Not long after we drove it in Barcelona (video: https://goo.gl/iCZVSu0), Volvo is all set to launch the compact luxury SUV in India. The XC40 is the Volvo that'll rope in young customers i.e. people who've had little to choose from in Volvo's "grown-up" car lineup. The 2018 XC40 rivals the likes of the BMW X1, Audi Q3 and Mercedes-Benz GLA, and takes the battle to the competition with a battalion of safety features, segment first features, proper SUV styling and Volvo India's promise of competitive pricing. So is this THE SUV to bait the new generation of luxury car buyers?


The gene pool in Australian Terriers is quite small. The only way to out cross and bring in new lines is to import and export. We feel as a breeder it is not only important for our own breeding program but for the breed over-all to introduce new blood. We have many breeder friends world-wide and we are very grateful to be able to work together for the betterment of the breed.
AKC, International and National Puppy Champion Nellyson's Yippy Yippy Yay! "Loretta" joined our family from Tina Nordgren all the way from Sweden. She is a great addition to our family.
Loretta and her handler (Isaac) attended their first show together. She has been shown exclusively with Isaac and finished her Championship at 18 months old.
Our first imported Aussie and our first finished Aussie with a natural tail.
Thank you to all the Judges for recognizing this wonderful Aussie.
Maybush Red Radiant Knight "Nova" joins our family. She was born May 22, 2014.
Nova's mother AUS Ch. Laspamas Lucky Nomad "Lucky" her father, CAN Ch. Wilfnbell Red Bondi "Tailer" is the #2 Australian Terrier in Canada and her Grandfather is the multi award winning Champion Jaskarin's Magic Number "Atti"
With her genes and her attitude, we are looking forward to exciting show news from this girl.
Thank you to her breeder and our friend Sylvia Knight for this special little Aussie.
Nellyson's Ava Good Weekend "Snooza"
When my daughters and I attended the 2014 World Show in Finland we saw many beautiful Australian Terriers. We also noticed a few that were being shown there that were imported from Australia specifically the Enomis Kennel. We thought they had many beautiful qualities and a pedigree that was different than we have in the USA. Thank you Steph for this opportunity.
Enomis Aussie XFactor "Rugby". We imported Rugby from Steph Nicolas a breeder from Australia. She is owned and lives with Diana and Mac in Minnesota. He has so many qualities I am exciting about adding to my breeding program! Rugby is co-owned by us.
Enomis Born for the Catwalk "Annie". We imported Annie from Steph Nicolas a breeder from Australia. She is owned and lives with Mike and Sandra and co-owned by us. She is a gorgeous Australian Terrier with a very interesting pedigree. We are grateful to her breeder and look forward to watching her in the show ring.

WATCH: Kieran Kane & Rayna Gellert, "Please Help Me, I'm Falling"
Artist: Kieran Kane & Rayna Gellert
Hometown: East Nashville, Tennessee
Song: "Please Help Me, I'm Falling"
Album: The Flowers That Bloom in Spring
Label: Dead Reckoning Records
In Their Words: "Our mellow take on this classic country song (written by Don Robertson & Hal Blair, and probably best known from Hank Locklin) evolved gradually, as it's one we kept returning to over and over again in recent years. This song — like the rest of the album — was recorded live, sitting across from each other in a bunkhouse in the Adirondacks. It has become our favorite room to record in. But since there's no soundproofing, capturing something as quiet as this track means waiting for the moment after all the noises of daytime have died down, but before the nighttime insects get too cranky. The quiet intimacy of the setting and the song are echoed by Lucas Kane's thoughtful video treatment." — Kieran Kane & Rayna Gellert

The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say cannot be done.
Many years ago I performed on stilts for a school production at the Wellington Town Hall. It was nerve wracking and I was muttering many prayers that I did not fall down and let the side down – luckily I didn't.
These lovely ladies (my note: low resolution doesn't work well with white!) perform on stilts (http://www.bandsforhire.co.nz/empress_stiltdance.htm) because they love it and are fantastic at their art. I loved the fluidity when they moved and the way in which the wind played with their costumes. I will leave this art form to the experts!

Marchais. Air France acquired a minority stake in the airline in 1989. Between 1993 and 1996 the company was gradually taken over by British Airways. It subsequently merged with Air Liberté.

The merged entity was sold on to the SAir Group in 2001, which in turn merged Air Liberté  with AOM becoming the renamed "Air Lib" {Wikipedia French article} continuing the heritage of TAT until the merged airline failed in 2003.

History

Touraine Air Transport commenced scheduled operations in 1968. The airline acquired its first Beech 99 Airliner twin-engined turboprop passenger airliner in June 1971 and used this type to commence French internal services. These aircraft remained in operation with TAT until 1975.

During the 1970s TAT began building up a comprehensive network of regional, short-haul domestic and international scheduled routes, as a result of being taken over in 1973 by Société Auxiliare de Services et Materiel Aéronautiques (SASMAT), the owner of rival French regional airline Rousseau Aviation, as well as the subsequent mergers with regional rivals Taxi Avia France and Air Paris. The resulting regional network served 30 provincial points in France and neighbouring European countries from Paris Orly, Lyons Satolas, Lille and St. Brieuc, respectively.

Many of TAT's French domestic routes were operated in collaboration with Air Inter, at the time the dominant domestic scheduled airline in France as well as the largest domestic airline in Europe. Most international routes were operated in conjunction with Air France, the primary French flag carrier at the time. Year-round services linking Lille with London Heathrow as well as Strasbourg with Milan Linate and a seasonal Béziers-London Gatwick service were among the international routes TAT operated during that time.

All joint operations with Air Inter and Air France were operated under those airlines' flight numbers and were prefixed with those carriers' two-letter airline identification codes as allocated by IATA, i.e. IT for Air Inter and AF for Air France. The aircraft used on all year-round international operations under contract to Air France wore that airline's full aircraft livery.

From the late 1970s until the early 1980s, TAT used to operate a scheduled German internal route linking Saarbrücken with Berlin Tegel. This route was operated on behalf of TAT Export, a wholly owned subsidiary.

The airline also started an express delivery services company in 1976 which still exists as of 2007.

During the early 1980s TAT acquired regional rivals Air Alpes, Air Alsace and Union Aéronautique Regionale. As a result of these mergers, the airline established itself as France's largest regional airline as well as the leading regional partner of Air France. It also resulted in an expanded network covering more than 50 points throughout France and Europe. TAT changed its official name to Transport Aérien Transrégional in 1984 to reflect the growth in its scheduled route network.

In July 1989 Air France acquired a 35% stake in TAT. (At that time TAT was the fourth-largest French airline [after Air France, Air Inter and UTA].)

In the early 1990s TAT began taking advantage of the EU's newly liberalised internal air transport market by launching a three times daily scheduled service between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and London Gatwick, the first time it had operated a scheduled service on a major international European trunk route. This was also the time TAT began marketing itself as TAT European Airlines.

In January 1993 British Airways acquired a 49.9% stake in TAT.  From then on TAT began operating all international scheduled services in British Airways colours and under BA flight numbers. TAT also joined the British Airways Executive Club frequent flier programme at that time. The change in ownership furthermore resulted in the launch of two new international routes linking Lyon and Marseille with London Gatwick from the start of the 1993 summer timetable period. TAT's subsequent launch of three daily return flights between Paris Orly and London Heathrow complemented British Airways' own thrice daily Heathrow-Orly service. This enabled British Airways to circumvent the slot restrictions the slot co-ordinator for the airports in the Paris region had imposed on Orly's non-resident airline users, which limited each of these airlines to holding a maximum of four daily pairs of slots, and to offer up to six daily round-trips on that route. As a result of these developments, Air France ended all commercial co-operation with TAT.

In August 1996 British Airways acquired the remaining 50.1% of TAT's share capital, thus acquiring 100% ownership.

In 1997 British Airways brought TAT under joint management control with Air Liberté, in which it had acquired a controlling stake in October 1996.

British Airways subsequently merged TAT into Air Liberté to achieve a significant reduction in costs and greater operational synergies. The UK flag carrier eventually disposed of the merged entity in May 2001 to rid itself of years of heavy losses and difficult labour relations at its French subsidiaries.

Fleet

Throughout its existence TAT operated a variety of piston-engined commuter airliners as well as regional turboprop and jet aircraft, including the following main types:

 Aérospatiale Corvette
 Beech King Air C90
 Beech 99/99A
 Boeing 737-200
 Fairchild F-27A
 Fairchild-Hiller FH-227B
 Fokker F.27 Friendship
 Fokker F.28 Fellowship (1000/2000/4000 series)
 Fokker 100
 McDonnell Douglas DC-9 (10/20 series)
 Nord 262
 VFW 614

Incidents and accidents
During its existence TAT suffered two fatal accidents and four non-fatal incidents. These occurred between 1975 and 1991.

Fatal accidents
The first fatal accident occurred on 2 July 1975. One of the airline's Beech 99 commuter airliners (registration F-BTQE) operating a scheduled domestic flight from Nantes to Brest crashed on take-off from Nantes Airport due to the failure of the aircraft's no. 2 engine, as a result of which it caught fire. The aircraft came down on a nearby railway line. All eight occupants, including both pilots and six passengers were killed in this accident.

The second fatal accident occurred on 4 March 1988. It involved one of the company's Fairchild-Hiller FH227Bs (registration F-GCPS) operating an early morning scheduled service from Nancy to Paris Orly as TAT Flight 230. An electrical system malfunction during the start of the aircraft's descent on the final portion of its flight to Paris Orly resulted in a sudden loss of control. This in turn caused the aircraft to descend very rapidly. It struck power lines and crashed near Fontainebleau, killing all 23 occupants (two pilots, one flight attendant and 20 passengers). This accident constituted the firm's worst air disaster in terms of loss of life.

Non-fatal incidents
On 5 July 1979 a Fairchild F-27A (registration F-GBRS) with 18 occupants on board was damaged beyond repair in an incident that occurred on the ground at Paris Orly while the aircraft was stationary. None of the aircraft's occupants were injured as a result of that incident. The aircraft was subsequently written off.

On 4 September 1983 a Beech 99 (registration F-BUYG) was damaged beyond repair following a crash at Tours. There were no reported injuries among the aircraft's occupants.

Went to the commissary today to use a few coupons I had. They are running a fantastic sale on Bic Soleil razors (I wish I could tell you the price but sadly I can't). The coupon has a limit of 4 per household per day so this was my 4th of 6 trips needed to use all of my coupons. Without giving away prices here is my trip for today.
My total before coupons was $114.36. My OOP was $65.36.
One really awesome thing that came out of this trip was the freebie attached to the shave gel. Each can had a little box attached containing 1 Schick Hydro 5 disposable razor. Each box also contained 1 coupon for $2/1 Schick Hydro Silk disposable razor and 1 coupon for $2/1Schick Hydro 5 disposable razor. I thought that was a sweet deal and was totally unexpected!
Congratulations on a GREAT shopping trip, Team Greene!!

The Trust Factor
The relationship economy is founded on technology, but can only be built on relationships. It starts with relationship networks and ends with trust.
In relationships trust may refer to a relationship of reliance .
Sociologists recognize a hierarchy of forms of activity and interpersonal relations that impact trust, divided into;
behavior action
These collective factors create interactive elements by which others, consciously and unconsciously determine the factors of trust that influence an individuals success with others and with entity communities networked together through a series of contact points.
In computer science trust can be referred to:
Trusted system, a system which failure may break a security policy
Web of trust, a system to establish authenticity
A trust metric rates users of social software
In psychology and sociology, a trust metric is a measure of how a member of a group is trusted by the other members. Trust metrics may be abstracted in a manner that can be implemented on computers, making them of interest for the study and engineering of virtual communities, such as Facebook and the host of other large networks. Attack resistance is an important property of trust metrics which reflects their ability to handle individuals who participate within social networks in bad faith (ie who aim to abuse the presumption of trust). feedback rating. Slashdot introduced its notion of karma, earned for activities received to promote group effectiveness, an approach that has been very influential in later virtual communities. Amazon's review system enables community members to rate a book or a seller of a book.
Enter Social Networks
The social interactions between individuals and networks assume a trust metrics in the undering social networks. Even if one assumes closed populations of constant size, due to mobility and communication, new links are created and new acquentions are made at all times. This means that the landscape and dynamics of social networks change over time. As new links are added to the network the path between each two individuals become shorter over time. In other words, the probability that any two randomly selected individuals know each other increases with time, thereby modifying the content of the collective memory in a evolutionary manner. Memory of an individuals trust factor is driven by the following dynamics
Players can communicate and inquire about the reputation of their co-players. The networks of acquainthood grows dynamically over time and the word spreads on who to trust and who not to trust . Information about the reputation of co-players is not obtained randomly; rather, players selectively acquire information from their acquirement network by taking advantage of the collective memory of the social networks to which they belong.Information is not propagated randomly in a population. New information resulting from new interactions modifies the content of the collective memory of a recipient and is hence selectively propagated through the recipient's acquaintance network.
A social network is an evolving dynamic entity . With new interactions, new links are created which in turn increase the likelihood of any two randomly selected players would know each other and the trust factors of each others history in the network. In other words if you violate the trust factors it can hang like a do not trust sign on your profile through an entire network.
The proliferation of web-based social networks has lead to new innovations in social networking, particularly by allowing users to describe their relationships beyond a basic connection. On any social network trust can be leveraged for profit. If a qualified member of a network offers a product or service the adoption of said offering is directly correlated to the "trust factor" said individual has built within and through the network. Trust factors in relationships follow form on line and in our physical world. Trust is the most important factor to individual and collective success. To violate it means a long road to recovery and in the virtual world negative impact to the factors of trust can stay with you for a very long time.
The Relationship Economy will be built on TRUST! What Say You?

Birth date, location June 28, 1948 - Mexico City
Obituary date January 4, 2001
Debut, location May 10, 1968 - Arena Milpa Alta, Mexico City
Height 175 cm/5' 7"
Weight 88 kg/194 lb
Titles: Distrito Federal Heavyweight Title, Arena Coliseo Tag Team Titles (w/ Villano II), UWA World Light Heavyweight Title, UWA World Trios Title (5, w/ Villanos IV & V), Plaza de Toros La Aurora Middleweight Championship, Mexico State Tag Team Championship (w/Villano II), Toreo de Cuatro Caminos Trios Championship (unknown parnters)
Villano I (José de Jesús Díaz Mendoza, some sources mix up the order of the surnames and have Mendoza Díaz which is wrong, as Ray Mendoza actually got the "Mendoza" part from his wife's name as he thought that it had a better sound for wrestling) was 49 years old, which is younger that one may expect, as Arturo himself is just a year younger.
He died around 12:00 PM in his house, located at the Oriente St. 154, number 227, at the Delegación Venustiano Carranza of El Distrito Federal (Mexico City), while recovering from the brain surgery he had on December 13, 2000 to fix a coagulum. He was doing fine and even though he had a relapse, he seemed to be alright now. He was happy, and was working hard to get into shape so he could have a retirement match at Arena Mexico teaming with his three brothers.
The official cause of the death is a heart attack caused by a cerebral haemorrhage. Doctora Guadalupe Ramírez from the ambulance UM 536 of the urgencies squad confirmed the news.
He's surivived by his widow, Delia Valero (who is the daughter of Héctor Valero Meré, a legendary lucha magazine writer/owner of the past), his two daughters Alma Delia and Blanca Olivia, plus his brothers and father.
His corpse was at the funerary Gayosso Sullivan until today (5th of January) around 12:15 PM when they carried him to the Panteón Francés de San Joaquín. Dozens of wrestlers (including Los Brazos, Perro Aguayo, Cien Caras, Universo 2000, Mascara Magica, Fantasma, El Signo, Felino and Ringo Mendoza) attended the funerary services and were there to say the last goodbye to their good friend. As requested by the family, he was buried with his mask on and wearing his Villano cape with the UWA logo.
This is quite ironic, but yesterday (4th of Jan., 2001), Ray and the other three Villanos gave an speech at the Hospital Obregón (located at Colonia Roma) about the risks of the sport, after Villano V had had successful knee surgery there a day before. They also spoke about Villano I's brain surgery as a side-effect of the years of head bumps in the ring. When they arrived home, they were told the bad news. They apparently had plans to film a TV documentary about the risks of lucha (Ray and the Villano's have suffered TONS of career threatening injuries), but I don't know if those plans will still go on.
The Villanos I and II started trained together in 1961 with Bobby Bonales at different venues in the districts of La Lagunilla and Tepito. During his youth, Villano I studied at the Escuela Superior de Educacion Fisica (Physical Education High School) and got a degree. He eventually became a P.E. teacher there too.
Villano wanted to be a part of the wrestling team for the Mexico '68 Olympics, but he couldn't get into the team so he and V-2 turned pro during sometime the first three months of 1969. Apparently Ray didn't want them to become wrestlers unless they had a degree, so they wrestled as the masked Bestias Negras I/II (Black Beasts) without their father knowing. Now I don't know if I should believe this history of them being wrestlers and their father not knowing, however all the Villano wrestlers have degrees.
Anyway, he also wrestled as Toro Bill (Bill the Bull) and El Villano, until at some point during late-70 or early-71 when they finally switched to Los Villanos I and II. At the start they mainly wrestled out of Naucalpan until they signed with EMLL where they competed mostly at the Arena Coliseo and became Arena Coliseo Tag Team champions.
All the Mendoza's departed to the newly created UWA in 1975 where the Villanos, especially Villano III, became big stars. During the "trios" boom in the early 80s there wasn't a regular Villano trio though, as Villano II "disappeared" and Villano III was a singles star. Villano I mostly teamed with his father in tag team competition until Villano IV started to wrestle with that name in early 1983. They were El Toreo regulars, but mostly competed the undercard (with the huge amount of talent and foreign imports they had, it wasn't uncommon to see El Hijo del Santo or Los Villanos in the first or second match of the night).
The only major singles title he had during his career was the UWA World Light Heavyweight title he captured on August 10, 1986 defeating Fishman at El Toreo. He lost the title on January 17 of the following year in the same place to Loco Zandokan (the original one, not the current one who is his brother Huichol). During his career he also won several masks, the most important being the ones of El Cóndor, Scorpio Sr., and Los Brazos (El Brazo, Brazo de Oro and Brazo de Plata).
After the death of his brother in 1989, he lost his heart about lucha, though he still was an active wrestler because he was a company man and the UWA needed him. However, he didn't wrestle a full time schedule and spent a lot of time as a P.E. teacher, and as an amateur wrestling teacher in a lot of gyms, like the Arena Toluca gym, Deportivo Oceanía, Centro Social de Aragón, and especially the Baños Gloria gym at the Tepito district. Most of the new talent of the early 90s in the UWA, was indeed trained by the Villanos.
When the UWA fell apart, Villano I went into semi-retirement though from time to time he appeared at a few small shows here and there.

Escondido council to allow both online and in-person public comments
Cities Community Escondido News
by Tigist Layne June 3, 2021 June 3, 2021 419
ESCONDIDO – The Escondido City Council adopted a policy on May 25 that gives people the option to either address the council in person at meetings or to submit comments online and have them read aloud during the meeting.
At last week's meeting, Councilwoman Consuelo Martinez requested that an item be placed on the agenda to discuss the public comment policy during council meetings.
Her request came after Mayor Paul McNamara decided not to have 131 comments from the preceding council meeting read aloud, explaining that it wouldn't be an efficient use of time.
"I have decided I have the authority to do this and I don't think we need to spend another 2 hours hearing essentially the same comments for and against," McNamara said at the May 19 meeting.
After a tense exchange between the mayor and Martinez, Martinez requested that the council update their public comment policy.
At Wednesday's meeting, the council heard five in-person public comments all in favor of allowing online and in-person public comments.
"The truth is that having these comments sitting in your emails is not enough. How do we know that you will read them, how do we know that you will even glance at them? The answer is that we don't know. The only way to assure that these comments are being looked at is if you read them out loud here, during these meetings," Escondido resident Carla Aguilar said.
Other comments spoke about how having only an in-person option for public comments excludes the voices of people with disabilities who may not be able to come to the meetings, low-income residents without access to transportation and working-class residents who don't get off work until after 5 pm.
"I do think that we didn't give proper notice to our residents… that public comments would no longer be read," Martinez said. "It's important to hear the public and the public wants to participate in these meetings."
All of the councilmembers said that, though the online model was created for COVID-19, they support implementing the hybrid model until the end of the year, at which point they will adjust it or improve it, if necessary.
The motion was approved 5-0.
The council approved rent increases at two mobile home parks and gave final approval to plans and exemptions for the development of 120 condominium units at West Second Avenue and South Pine Street.
An item to designate city-owned parcels as surplus land was continued until the new city manager can give input.

A taste of Turkish Delight in the markets of Istanbul
By Elizabeth von Pier
24 Dec, 2018, 09:59
"Come in. It doesn't hurt to look." "Where are you from?" "l have a cousin in Minnesota." "What do you want? Carpets? Jewelry? Beautiful leather jacket? Turkish Delight? I can show you."
Murat Aksoy, carpet vendor
Enthusiastic entrepreneurs stand in front of their shops and step forward to greet you as you pass by. You really should ignore them, but it's very hard if you want to be polite—and they know that. So I think I met and personally interacted with most of the 4,000 shopkeepers in the Grand Bazaar of Istanbul and many more along the streets of the city. Sometimes I even stepped into the tiny shop, tasted a sample of their Turkish Delight, smelled their spices, admired their colorful hanging lanterns, even accepted their gracious offer of a glass of tea. The problem came when I wanted to leave. It took every ounce of strength that I had to walk out as they kept talking to me about their "top quality" merchandise, sometimes even following me out the door with more samples.
To keep them going at this pace, a coffee and tea service is available to the shopkeepers in the Bazaar. Several charming tiny stations where coffee and tea are made are located in inconspicuous spots in these alleyways. Glasses of tea and cups of Turkish coffee are made up, placed on a tray, and carried to the vendors throughout the bazaar. No money is exchanged. I presume that this service must be included in the price they pay for rent.
The value of the dollar is very good here in Turkey so you can buy a lot of stuff for very little. As you go into the warren of streets and away from the entrance gates to the Grand Bazaar, the lower are the prices and the more you can bargain. You start by offering to pay half or less of their asking price and go up from there. No matter how good a deal you think you got, you most likely lost at this game. But it seems that both buyer and seller always leave feeling happy with the outcome.
Kutlay Sahin, Turkish Delight
Turkish Delight is the number one product sold throughout Istanbul. On one of my walks through the old city, I met a very gracious entrepreneur named Omer Kutlay Sahin. Omer has not yet decided on the name of his shop so he calls it simply "Sweet Cafe" and it's a very attractive and appealing place with sparkling clean windows, bright lights, and displays of Turkish Delight and other sweets that make the mouth water. Turkish Delight is a delicious concoction made from a gel base of starch and sugar. Premium varieties are filled with chopped dates, pistachios, walnuts, and hazelnuts and rolled in the gel. Traditional varieties are flavored with rosewater, orange, or lemon, dusted with a sprinkling of powdered sugar, and cut into one-inch cubes.
Omer also sells other traditional Turkish desserts such as baklava and kunefe. Omer's shop is very well located on the main street not far from the Topkapi Palace Museum. The displays are beautiful and draw you in if Omer himself does not. He offers little cubes of the tasty confection as samples to lure you in. I tried some samples, then went up the short flight of stairs to have a cup of cappuccino and a piece of baklava and watched as customers came in, tried some samples, and left with bags of the tasty delights.
Another interesting product sold here in Istanbul are evil eyes. Made of glass, evil eyes feature concentric circles or teardrops in dark blue, white, light blue, and black and are sold in all of the souvenir shops. They are worn or carried as a protection against not-so-well-meaning people with their evil eyes. It's possible that these souvenirs are not made in China. The tradition of making evil eyes goes back 3,000 years when father and son worked together over sweltering furnaces in Turkey to create the charming glass discs. They come in many forms—as talismans to wear around the neck, hang from a rear-view mirror, or, as I do, decorate a Christmas tree. I've also seen them formed into paperweights, attached to a key chain, and made into lovely vases to decorate the home.
Also popular are Turkish mosaic lanterns, often in the form of chandeliers with four to ten hanging balls in bright colors. And there are specialty shops devoted to ceramics, kilim rugs, leather products, spices, fine cotton Turkish towels, and jewelry.
There are three major markets in Istanbul—the Grand Bazaar, the Spice Market, and the Arasta Bazaar. The Grand Bazaar is one of the world's oldest and largest covered markets, with 61 vaulted streets, 4,000 shops, and 250,000 to 400,000 visitors daily. It was constructed in 1461 under Ottoman Sultan Mehmed The Conqueror who brought an end to the Byzantine Empire. It is the world's first shopping mall; it also is one of the most popular tourist sites in the world. Some of its streets specialize in one product such as gold and silver, and others are mixed, catering to a more general audience.
Within the Grand Bazaar is the Sandal Bedesteni, a commercial complex in the form of a mosque with a central courtyard surrounded by related shops. It does not specialize in sandals—the name comes from a kind of woven thread which has the color of sandalwood. It dates from the 15th century when it was mainly devoted to textiles. Today this is an area that has recently been refurbished with tenants that include specialty antique shops and an upscale steak house.
At No. 5 Sandal Bedesteni I met Murat Aksoy, the manager of Sherenian Rugs & Carpets. Around since 1880, his shop focuses on interesting old and antique kilims although he also carries some new rugs. We had a nice conversation and he showed me many of his beautiful rugs, all in excellent condition. He also has a shop on Carol Lane in Dallas, Texas. When Murat learned that I was in the market for a pillow cover, he showed me dozens and dozens of lovely pieces, pulling them out one by one from his high pile and discussing the merits of each. I fell in love with and bought a kilim in rusts and blues as a gift to take back home. I had done some comparison shopping in the Grand Bazaar itself and couldn't get this one off my mind so I came back to Murat's shop to buy it. I probably paid Dallas prices for it, but I love it anyway.
The Spice Market, as its name implies, specializes in spices although other food products are generally offered as well, including dried apricots and figs, fresh roasted nuts, and Turkish Delight. It was built about 350 years ago to promote the spice trade in Istanbul. It attracts both locals and tourists and is located north and east of the Grand Bazaar near the Kadikoy ferry pier.
The Arasta Bazaar is an open air market located on a relatively short street near the Blue Mosque and the Hotel Amira. It has somewhat more upscale shops and also includes several cafes and restaurants and The Great Palace Mosaic Museum.
There are no women working in these markets or shops. All of the services are offered by men. Men do the deliveries, serve coffee and tea to the shopkeepers, and tend the shops. Most of the customers are tourists although occasionally you will see some local people out shopping, especially in the spice market.
While I was resting at the only cafe in the Grand Bazaar, I saw something interesting happening in these ancient alleyways. It's the act of cleansing oneself before praying to Allah, called "ablution". At the intersection of two streets in the Grand Bazaar is an old square pillar with a faucet on each of the four sides about two feet up from a trough which runs around the base. There's also a stone slab in front of the faucet that can be used to sit down. I've seen ablution spaces outside the entrances to mosques where they are used to wash up and cleanse yourself, a prerequisite to praying. When the bazaar was built, there were several little squares used for daily prayers, five mosques, and seven fountains which probably explains why this ablution space is located here in the center of commerce. A man was cleansing himself right there in front of all the shoppers and shopkeepers. No one paid attention to him as he performed this sacred ritual. I presume he was on his way to pray.
You can spend hours getting lost in this den of streets that make up the bazaar or outside in the myriad of small shops lining the street. I returned to my hotel sweating and exhausted after bargaining down prices that amounted to about 60 cents on a $3 purchase! And most likely I lost in this deal.

The Comeback Kid: Southwest Florida's Ongoing Economic Recovery. Attorneys Denis Noah (Chairman of the Horizon Council) and Russell Schropp (Horizon Council Task Force Chair) will provide a look at the state of Southwest Florida's economic recovery – from a lawyer's perspective!
Corporate Track – How to Win Your Lawsuit (Part I), Pre-Litigation: Lawsuit Prevention and Control presented by Attorneys John Agnew, Scott Beatty, Shannon Puopolo, Luis Rivera and Douglas Szabo. The best way to win a lawsuit is to avoid one in the first place. During this session, the panelists will discuss ways to decrease the risk of involvement in a business-related lawsuit. Panelists will also share best practices for avoiding litigation, including business organization laws, operating agreements, employee manuals, third-party contracts, and enforceable non-compete and confidentiality agreements.
Human Resources Track – What Business Owners or Executives Should Know About Employment Laws presented by Attorneys John Potanovic and Robert Shearman. Whether your company or agency has a dedicated HR staff or not, there are certain employment laws that a business owner or c-suite executive should understand. The myriad of employment laws are dizzying for even the most astute business person. Bob and John will feature some of the most important laws, the dynamics these laws can create in the workplace, with administrative agencies, and in the courts, and will offer practical guidance that their expertise and experience, a combined 50 years in practice, has enabled them to share with clients in resolving these issues for businesses and agencies of all sizes.
Workers' Compensation Track – Protecting Your Bottom Line by Maintaining the Upper Hand on Workers' Compensation Claims presented by Attorneys David Roos and Michael McCabe. Who's the boss? You are. Take advantage of HR practices and policies that allow a business owner or executive to maintain control over claims costs (and future premium increases). Be aware of how the failure to implement – and enforce – these practices can lead to the waiver of certain Workers' Compensation defenses. Maintain control from the date of hire, through the date of accident, and beyond.
Corporate Track – How to Win Your Lawsuit (Part II), During Litigation: Strategies for Improving Outcomes presented by Attorneys John Agnew, Scott Beatty, Shannon Puopolo, Luis Rivera and Douglas Szabo. Lawsuits happen. Despite the best planning, sometimes a business will get involved in a business-related lawsuit. During this discussion, the panel will include litigation strategies and remedies to improve the outcome of a pending lawsuit.
Human Resources Track – Awareness in the Workplace: Domestic Violence and Its Impact presented by Attorneys David Sims and Kayla Richmond. Domestic Violence can be a difficult topic to discuss, but through knowledge and awareness it can be an issue resolved in your workplace. Every 9 seconds a woman in the United States is beaten. Along with a multitude of other disheartening statistics, domestic violence costs the business industry $8.3 billion dollars annually. David and Kayla will present information employers should know to identify domestic violence issues, assist in preventing the impact of domestic violence in the workplace, and understand the legality of domestic violence in the Southwest Florida.
Immigration Track – Immigration Concerns for Southwest Florida Businesses presented by Attorney Tulio Suarez. Tulio will discuss how U.S. Immigration Law affects every business regardless of whether or not they currently hire foreign nationals. Topics will include: compliance with the E-Verify, Form I-9, Employee Identification and Employment Authorization requirements; options for the hiring of foreign nationals; and the current federal and state law requirements applicable to U.S. employers.
Social Media Do's and Don'ts: How Social Media Can Impact Your Business presented by Attorneys Suzanne Boy and John Miller. Social media is clearly here to stay, but many businesses are unsure of how to regulate employee use and address questionable employee action. Does your business have a well-crafted social media policy in place that protects your organization and your employees — or could you be headed for legal hot water? This entertaining presentation will educate attendees on common issues involving the use of social media by companies and employees both in and out of litigation, and offer tips to help protect the bottom line.
We are honored to present the Summit in association with the Bonita Springs Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Southwest Florida, the Greater Fort Myers Chamber of Commerce, the Greater Naples Chamber of Commerce, the Islands of Sanibel/Captiva Chamber of Commerce and the Southwest Florida Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

"Looking at a map of Greece before and after the Regular Member program is the difference between looking at a poem before and after learning the language of its composition. What you see doesn't change, but the difference in understanding is monumental."
Bill Beck, University of Pennsylvania, School Member 2016–17
"My experience here resulted in a dissertation idea that will most likely shape my academic career, and it is a topic that would have never occurred to me had I not participated in the ASCSA program."

Anne Feltovich, Assistant Professor of Classics at Hamilton College, School Member 2007–08
"The program's greatest strength is the breadth of art, archaeology, material culture that is covered in the course of the regular year. This institution provides the student with exposure to the ancient world; it is truly without peer."
Regular School Member 2014-2015
"[The Gennadius Library Summer Session] is the best-organized summer program that I have ever attended! It is also professionally the most useful one. The variety of texts and topics covered serves as a warrant that every participant will get fresh ideas for their research. The practical skills that are acquired in a single month might well match a year of regular educational programs."

Listed large and medium-sized Chinese commercial banks are trying hard to foster new drivers of growth.
They are putting greater emphasis on retail banking and emerging business divisions like consumer finance and green lending.
China Construction Bank Corp, the country's second-largest commercial lender by assets, recently announced that its personal consumer loans reached 192.7 billion yuan (.6 billion) as at the end of 2017, up a whopping 157 percent year-on-year.
Its green lending, which aims to reduce pollution through financial support for environmentally friendly businesses, also increased by 13 percent to more than 1 trillion yuan.
Wang Zuji, president of China Construction Bank, said at a news conference in Beijing late last month: "Consumption has become an increasingly strong driving force for economic growth, and we consider retail banking, especially consumer finance, as a very important direction that bank loans will head for."
CCB highlighted the importance of retail banking as a way to acquire low-cost funds, Wang said, especially when commercial banks are facing strong challenges in finding sources of funds at a low cost due to the booming wealth management solutions and fintech (financial technology) companies.
Like CCB, many other listed commercial banks also enhanced their business model of mega retail and mega asset management.
Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Ltd, the country's largest State-owned commercial lender by assets, registered a net increase of 38 million retail banking customers last year. With a total of 88.59 million credit card customers, ICBC became the largest credit card issuing bank in terms of customer number in China.
Its balance of wealth management products exceeded 3 trillion yuan as at the end of 2017, up 11.4 percent from the previous year, and the income from asset management business increased by 8.6 percent.
At China CITIC Bank Corp Ltd, a Beijing-headquartered national joint-stock commercial lender, the contribution of retail banking to its net non-interest income increased by 40 percent year-on-year in 2017, as the bank stepped up efforts for business restructuring.
Last year, retail banking generated 60 percent of China CITIC Bank's net non-interest income, or 34.17 billion yuan. The bank's retail banking clients totaled 80 million, increasing at a compound annual growth rate of 17.1 percent from 2014.
Beginning this year, China CITIC Bank is implementing a new three-year development plan. Previously, it highlighted corporate banking as the main body and retail banking and financial markets business as the two wings. But in the next three years, the bank will strive for balanced development of corporate, retail and financial markets businesses.
"In particular, we will transform from 'One Body, Two Wings' to 'Troika', that is to say, develop corporate business by strengthening its distinctive features and cementing its competitive advantages; develop retail business by enhancing its services and increasing its value contribution; and develop financial markets business by activating markets and strengthening plat-forms," said its president Sun Deshun in a letter to shareholders on March 26.
Bank of China Ltd, the country's fourth-largest commercial lender by assets, also adjusted its credit structure, increasing loans to domestic strategic emerging industries by 48.7 billion yuan from the previous year to 493.1 billion yuan in 2017.
Chen Siqing, chairman of BoC, said the bank will make strides in the integration of its banking institutes.
"Rather than competing with other banks and fintech companies by building up our total assets, we'll optimize our assets, which currently stand at nearly 20 trillion yuan. We'll reduce capital occupation and increase earnings from capital occupation by improving the role of technology, so that Bank of China will become a bank on track for high-quality development," Chen said.
