Christian Ruud, né le  à Oslo, est un joueur de tennis norvégien, professionnel de 1991 à 2001.

Ses résultats ont fait de lui le meilleur joueur de tennis de l'histoire de la Norvège (avant que son fils ne le dépasse en 2020), ainsi que le joueur le plus sélectionné dans l'équipe de Norvège de Coupe Davis. Il a représenté son pays à trois reprises aux Jeux olympiques, à Barcelone en 1992, à Atlanta en 1996 et à Sydney en 2000.

Spécialiste de la terre battue, il compte à son palmarès 12 tournois Challenger en simple et un en double. Sur le circuit principal ATP, il a atteint une seule finale, perdue en simple, en 1995.

Il est le père du joueur de tennis Casper Ruud, ainsi que son entraîneur.

Carrière
Il fait ses débuts chez les professionnels en  en Suède sur le circuit Satellite. En 1992, il obtient une place lucky loser pour le tableau principal des Jeux olympiques de Barcelone. Bien que classé , il parvient à mener 2 sets à 1 contre le  mondial, Boris Becker (3-6, 7-6, 5-7, 7-6, 6-3). Il se qualifie dans la foulée pour l'US Open. Toujours en tant que qualifié, il remporte son premier match en Grand Chelem en 1994 lors des Internationaux de France contre Gilbert Schaller. Grâce à ses bonnes performances sur le circuit Challenger (4 titres, 2 finales), il accède au top 100 en fin d'année.

En 1995, il participe à la seule finale ATP de sa carrière à Båstad. Il perd contre le brésilien Fernando Meligeni (6-4, 6-4), qui était pourtant moins bien classé que lui. En septembre, il est demi-finaliste à Bucarest. En 1996, il atteint quatre demi-finales sur le circuit ATP et bat Boris Becker sur abandon.

Il obtient son meilleur résultat dans un tournoi du Grand Chelem lors de l'Open d'Australie 1997 en atteignant les huitièmes de finale en battant notamment Jan Siemerink au  (3-6, 4-6, 7-5, 6-2, 10-8) en presque 4 heures. Cette année-là, il signe également des victoires sur Félix Mantilla ( mondial) à Dubaï et surtout Ievgueni Kafelnikov () à Monte-Carlo où il atteint les quarts de finale.

En 1998, il ne parvient pas à défendre ses points acquis à Melbourne et ayant reculé au-delà de la , il se voit contraint de retourner vers le circuit Challenger, chose qu'il fait avec succès puisqu'il s'impose à quatre reprises. Lors de l'Open d'Australie 1999, il élimine contre toute attente le  mondial et récent vainqueur du Masters, Àlex Corretja en 4 sets (3-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4). Il enchaîne sur une demi-finale à Orlando et une victoire contre Thomas Enqvist ( mondial) au deuxième tour des Internationaux de France.

Fin 1999, une blessure l'écarte des courts pendant 6 mois. Il fait son retour à la compétition lors du Masters de Miami grâce à un classement protégé. En , il atteint la finale du tournoi d'exhibition de River Oaks, organisé après le tournoi de Houston où il a battu le  mondial, Jan-Michael Gambill au premier tour. Il avait déjà remporté ce tournoi en 1996. Il met un terme à sa carrière quelques mois après à cause d'une nouvelle blessure.

Reido walked up to the mission giver as he nodded as a sign he accepted this mission. It would be rather a nuisance but he needed money, desperately. Grabbing a net from a boy he zoomed off to take the mission as he heard the boy say. "Hey he stole my net." While it seemed he was about to cry slightly smirking Reido got to the exit exiting the area.
Coming back on the bear everyone began to run and panic as Reido commanded it to stop looking at the mission Conductor he waited. "Well, where is my ryo five thousand as you said on the paper, in cash too." Knowing he probably would get it in cash he just added to make sure he did holding the net tightly he knew he would have to take it off or the bear would die of suffication.
Getting of the bear releasing the net, he quickly fled the area not wanting to stay and see what happened.

Details of Biden's economic agenda struggling to reach voters: poll
by Brett Samuels - 10/15/21 5:45 AM ET
President Biden's signature economic agenda item is popular with a majority of voters, a new poll shows, but many of them are still unfamiliar with the details of the plan, underscoring the messaging difficulty the White House has had around the large-scale package.
A Navigator poll released Friday found 62 percent of registered voters support Biden's "Build Back Better" agenda when it's described as a $3.5 trillion package to provide family and medical leave, fund universal prekindergarten, expand Medicare coverage and lower the cost of drug prices.
That includes support from 91 percent of Democrats and 52 percent of independent voters, the poll found. Thirty-two percent of Republicans support the agenda when described in those terms, compared to 59 percent of GOP voters who oppose it.
The poll also found support among an overwhelming majority of Democrats and 49 percent of Republicans when it's explained the package would be paid for via increasing taxes on the wealthiest Americans and corporations and with tougher IRS enforcement.
Despite the popularity of the broad contours of Biden's agenda, however, the poll found details of the plan have yet to break through for most Americans, including Democrats.
Only 1 in 5 voters have heard "a lot" about the legislation, the poll found, including just 13 percent of independents. Roughly one-third of Democrats, one-third of independents and one-third of Republicans said they've heard "some" about the plan.
Among independents, 55 percent said they've heard either "not much" or nothing at all about the Build Back Better plan.
The poll was conducted by Navigator, a left-leaning research group, from Oct. 7-11 and surveyed 1,001 registered voters.
The survey's findings reflect how the White House believes its economic agenda is widely popular with voters, but it has been difficult to streamline the massive spending package into a clear and concise message.
Biden has traveled the country to tout different aspects of it, and he will visit Connecticut on Friday to specifically focus on the child care benefits in the package.
Further complicating messaging efforts, the final look of the reconciliation bill is still being negotiated. Biden has acknowledged $3.5 trillion is not going to be the final price tag after pushback from Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), whose votes in the Senate are necessary to get the bill passed.
But progressives have dug in on their priorities and called Manchin's proposed price tag of $1.5 trillion too small, leaving negotiations stalled despite calls from congressional leaders to get the package finalized by the end of the month.

Wiggins admits he doesn't have the form
Stephen Farrand 2010-07-18T17:09:00Z
Sky rider to battle on to Paris
Bradley Wiggins (Team Sky) (Image credit: Brecht Decaluwé)
Bradley Wiggins (Team Sky) has openly admitted for the first time that he does not have the same form he had in 2009 but insisted he will continue in the Tour and try and secure the best overall result he can.
Wiggins still aiming for high Tour finish
Wiggins' wise take on Tour performance
Wiggins struggled during the first mountain stage in the Pyrenees. He lost contact with the lead group of 30 riders three kilometres from the summit of the Port de Pailheres. He fought to limit his losses but finished 36th, 4:59 behind stage winner Christophe Riblon (Ag2r-La Mondiale).
Teammate Thomas Löfkvist finished ahead of Wiggins, in 19th place, at 2:30. Löfkvist is now 16th overall at 9:46, while Wiggins slipped to 18th at 11:30.
Wiggins has been guarded about his form throughout the Tour de France but the barriers came down and he decided to speak from the heart when asked a question by veteran Australian journalist John 'Iffy' Trevorrow.
"Do you want me to be honest with you Iffy? I'm f*ked mate," Wiggins admitted after spending a few minutes recovering in the Team Sky camper van at the summit of the climb to X3 Domaines.
"I just don't have the form. I'm not going to lie to you. So I'm trying my hardest and just battling on, rather than give up. It's as simple as that. I just haven't got it like last year, it's as simple as that. I don't know why. I just feel consistently mediocre. Not brilliant, not shit, just mediocre. Just sort of plateau."
"I just haven't got it right this year. We thought I had, but we haven't. Form is a funny old thing. It's hard to say why. You do everything right and you think you've got it right but I'm just not with the best guys this year."
Wiggins admitted that his fourth place in the 2009 Tour de France was a fluke.
"It was fluke in the sense that it wasn't planned. I fell into superb form and was riding on cloud nine for most of the race and held onto fourth place," he said.
"This is huge learning curve. This is the first year I've tackled it like this full on. It's easy to think you can improve and get it right. I recovered well from the Giro and did some good stuff in training that suggested it was all pointing in the right direction but obviously it's another thing producing it in racing and holding it day in day out. Is another thing all together. Then you can't account for what everyone else is going to do."
Despite losing time again and facing further losses and further suffering in the three remaining stages in the Pyrenees, Wiggins was
not about to throw in the towel.
"I'm not giving up on anything," he said.
"I'm going to keep pushing every day. I'm going to give my best and see what that is in Paris. There was a big shake up today and so
tomorrow is another day. It's a funny old race at the moment. I'm just going to keep on limiting my losses as much as I can. I might have a good day, you never know."
Wiggins seemed relieved that the pressure and expectation has finally eased. What had become a near permanent frown was replaced by a sense of serenity and relief.
"It's disappointing but that's the reality of it. You can't kid yourself that it's going to happen. That's the way it is," he said.
"All you can do is keep pushing on. The race is still going on and I think I have a duty to the team and their commitment, and to the Tour
de France. The amount of support out there is fantastic and I'd hate to just sit up and give up. I'll just keep pushing hard and then
comeback next year and try again."

Callum was born in London and grew up on a Chelsea estate – he is a huge Chelsea football fan – where, he claimed in a 2014 interview, "I learned more from films than I did through life itself." Six foot two tall, he decided to go into acting at age eighteen taking some courses and working as a model for Burberry, fronting their 2011 campaign photographed by Mario Testino. Whilst continuing to take acting lessons he was cast by John Boorman to play the director's younger self in 'Queen and Country', the sequel to 'Hope and Glory', in 2012 though it was over a year before the project got off the ground. In the meantime he appeared opposite Helen McCrory in 'Leaving'. a television drama about a middle-aged woman's affair with a younger man. On the strength of this and the eventual release of 'Queen and Country' Screen International declared him one of its Stars of Tomorrow in 2014. In 2014 he also appeared in Channel 4's drama serial 'Glue', as one of a group of youngsters investigating the death of Callum's brother in a community of travelers and in early 2016 he could be seen as part of the huge ensemble cast in the BBC TV adaptation of 'War and Peace.'

Jen Lilley Opens up About Being Pregnant With a Baby Girl
Rachel Luna/Getty Images
Congratulations are in order for DAYS OF OUR LIVES alum Jen Lilley (ex-Theresa) and husband, Jason Wayne, who are expecting a baby girl! The couple already have two sons who they are fostering, but now the actress is pregnant with a girl. "I'm getting a baby for my birthday," Lilley enthused on Instagram, expecting to give birth in August.
The expectant parents have already considered names, and seem to have settled on Julie. They even did a photo shoot where he held pink balloons while she held her growing baby bump to share the blessed news with their family. "I love everything about it," Lilley declared. "We're definitely going to frame it in baby Julie's nursery."
When your flight's delayed and the Roanoke airport gives you crayons and a coloring book so you can squeeze in a few more moments of quality time with your favorite two year old ❤ I love my hometown.
A post shared by Jen Lilley (@jen_lilley) on Mar 5, 2019 at 6:17pm PST
Lilley, who also filled in for Kirsten Storms as GENERAL HOSPITAL's Maxie, reprised her DAYS role of Theresa Donovan in the spring of 2018 and in October of that year, released "King of Hearts," the first single from her upcoming album. Not to mention her frequent appearances in romantic Hallmark movies such as Mingle All the Way and Harvest Love. But her career is going to take a back seat now that she's welcoming a third child into their loving family that already includes their two-year-old foster son they are currently in the process of adopting, and his biological half-brother who is just 11 months old.
"I absolutely love being a mom of boys, but there's a couple of reasons we wanted a girl," Lilley told People Magazine. "One [being], we don't have one. More importantly, the reason we wanted the girl is now my sons won't have a bio-son to compare themselves to and I think that's really, really important."
We wish nothing but the best for the happy family and can't wait to see the first pictures of the beautiful little angel when she is born. And for more on your favorite daytime stars — past and present — keep reading Soaps In Depth magazine!

Talk to a lawyer for Free 24/7 (314) 361-4242 :: With over 20 Years experience & thousands of cases, our St. Louis Auto Wreck Lawyers fight to get compensation for accident injury victims.
No matter how safe or defensive a driver you are, you cannot control the actions and behaviors of the other people with whom you share the road. Each day thousands of people are victims of auto wrecks. It only takes a few seconds for a wreck to change your life.
If you or a loved one have been in an auto wreck due the negligence or recklessness of another person, contact The Hoffmann Law Firm, L.L.C. as soon as possible.
A negligent driver is someone who behaves in a thoughtless or careless manner, resulting in harm or injury to another person. Thinking that someone has been negligent is very different from being able to prove that they were.

What Should You Do After an Auto Wreck?
Every car accident is unique, yet there are some common tips that any auto wreck victim can follow to ensure the situation is resolved as quickly as possible.
Seek proper medical attention: Unquestionably, the health and safety of you and your loved ones should be your top priority. Seek medical treatment for any injuries sustained as soon as possible.
Avoid discussing the accident and save your apologies: You were just involved in a traumatic event and might not be thinking clearly — limit your discussions to avoid admitting liability. Discuss the accident with the police and your insurance agent only.
Have someone obtain vital information: Get the names, insurance information, phone numbers and addresses of everyone involved in the accident.
Have someone photograph the scene: Many insurers recommend obtaining photos of the accident scene to avoid discrepancies and to obtain accurate evidence.
Have someone take notes: Detailing the nature of your injuries, the damage to your property and anything you find unusual could be very beneficial down the road.
Do not accept initial insurance offers: Insurance companies do not have your best interests in mind. They want your case to go away as quickly and quietly as possible, and typically undervalue the damages accident victims sustained.
Contact an experienced auto wreck lawyer: Speak to a knowledgeable auto wreck lawyer to discuss your case, learn your options and determine if you are entitled to compensation.

Auto wreck victims have the right to pursue financial compensation for all of their injuries.
If you suffer a debilitating injury from the auto wreck, our team of auto wreck lawyers will also advise you to pursue compensation for future medical care, including the cost of in-home nursing care, or the placement in a rehabilitation facility.

About Quantum Leap
Quantum Leap is an Indiana Humanities initiative that encourages Hoosiers to explore and celebrate the spirit of possibility and problem-solving that occurs when we bridge the humanities with science, technology, engineering, math (STEM) and medicine.
Quantum Leap Field Trips took Hoosiers inside fascinating sites of discovery, problem-solving and innovation. These indelible adult field trips, co-led by scientists and humanities scholars, combine tours with short literary readings in order to help us think, read and talk about how new frontiers of inquiry reshape our understanding of what it means to be human. Each trip concluded with a snack, drinks and discussion.
Past Field Trips
Explore the final frontier at Mooresville's Link Observatory (July 28, 2017) | Recap
When it was built in 1939, Morgan County's Link Observatory was the eighth largest telescope in the nation. From the late 1940s through the late 1960s, more than 90 percent of all new asteroids discovered worldwide were found by the Link Observatory! On this Field Trip, we stepped onto the observation deck of a research-grade facility and used the giant telescope to peer into the night sky, something humans have been doing and writing about for thousands of years. We paired the latest information on space exploration from NASA with timeless literature that helps us consider our place in the universe, then settled in for a truly far-out discussion.
Consider what separates humans from animals at the Indianapolis Zoo (Aug. 25, 2017) | Recap
For a long time, biologists considered the use of tools to be a major marker of difference separating humans and animals. But recent research, including that conducted at the Indianapolis Zoo, has complicated that binary. If orangutans can talk, elephants can feel emotions and dolphins can use tools, then are humans really so different than other forms of life? On Aug 25 we went on a fascinating behind-the-scenes tour of the Indianapolis Zoo, where we got up close and personal with the animals and talked with scientists whose cutting-edge research is radically reshaping the field of zoology. Along the way, we read short literary texts that invite us to reconsider our human-centered view of the universe.
Investigate the origins of ecology at the Indiana Dunes (Sept. 16, 2017) | Recap
We usually think of the Indiana Dunes as a spot for recreation or artistic inspiration—but can we think of them as a lab, too? The pioneering botanist Henry Chandler Cowles discovered many new plant species and proved the theory of ecological succession at the Dunes. That makes the Dunes one Indiana's most important places of scientific inquiry and investigation.
On this Field Trip, we explored the Dunes and considered how Cowles's ideas—the interconnectedness of all living things—have shaped not only scientific but also humanistic thinking over the last century. Along the way, we helped present-day scientists collect samples and learn about trail monitoring. Afterwards, we gathered around a campfire for beers, food and discussion.
Quantum Leap Field Trip to New Harmony (Aug. 18, 2018) | Recap
This tiny Indiana town was once the center of the American scientific community. It was from here that early and significant surveys of North American flora, fauna and geology were conducted; one of the famous Owen brothers then went on to found the Smithsonian Institution. During this one-of-a-kind tour of New Harmony, we met with geologists, archaeologists and historians helping to tell this story today, and saw some of the original specimens and maps collected and created more than 150 years ago. We'll made stops at the Working Men's Institute, the Harmonist Cemetery and walked out to the Wabash riverbed to spot fossils before quaffing our thirst with a beer brewed from an 1823 New Harmony recipe.
Quantum Leap Field Trip to Purdue Bee Labs (Sept. 15, 2018) | Recap
Emily Dickinson once wrote "To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee / One clover, and a bee / and revery. / The revery alone will do / If bees are few." Unfortunately today, in the era of colony collapse, we may soon be testing Dickinson's theory of whether we can create a prairie (or sustain agriculture, or enjoy a beautiful garden) if bees are few.
Thankfully, Indiana is home to scientists and ecologists valiantly working to save bees and help them become more resilient. On Sept. 15, we traveled to Purdue's Bee Labs and research gardens, where we learned about efforts to create an "Indiana Queen," how to counter colony collapse and the reasons why humans and bees need each other. Along the way, we read short literary texts that helped us think and talk about these and other questions, followed by sweet honey-themed snacks and drinks.
Quantum Leap is an Indiana Humanities initiative that encourages Hoosiers to explore and celebrate the spirit of possibility and problem-solving that occurs when we bridge the humanities with science, technology, engineering, math and medicine.

Police appeal after wreath laid to honour war dead goes missing the day after Remembrance Sunday
Police have launched an appeal for the return of a commemorative wreath that was laid at the war memorial in Clitheroe on Remembrance Sunday.
By Susan Plunkett
Thursday, 18th November 2021, 10:27 am
The wreath, which was made using real flowers, and was laid by the Mayoress of Clitheroe Mrs Donna O'Rourke, went missing the day after the ceremony.
A spokesman for the Ribble Valley police neighbourhood team said: "We wouldn't want to believe that someone would take a wreath laid in respect for those fallen, but we aren't sure what the alternative explanation could be.
"Hopefully the wreath returns to where it belongs as this is not only potentially criminal it is also disrespectful and upsetting."

A recent survey from GoCompare.com of nearly 2,000 Britons shows some surprising trends among modern UK home buyers, the Express newspaper reports. Survey respondents were asked what they felt were 'must-have' features when buying a home in the UK. According to the survey, more than anything else, today's Britons want one main feature in their home: a good mobile phone signal.
Yes, you read that correctly: a good mobile phone signal. So popular is the mobile phone signal, in fact, that it outpaced even the now lowly bathtub as a property 'must-have'.
The majority of Britons surveyed said they most desired double-glazed windows, secured doors and central heating -- no doubt the result of the UK's ever-changing weather.
Speaking of weather: gardens are also essential 'must-haves'. Apparently, most Britons want to savour and maximise the few fleeting days of summer we're afforded in the outdoors.
Driveways and dedicated parking spaces are other outdoor areas most dreamed about by British home buyers. A total of 53 per cent of respondents said they'd love to have their own in their new home.
Reliable broadband, space for a large telly and electrical outlets -- lots and lots of electrical outlets -- were also mentioned as 'must-haves' by survey respondents.
What Britons seek in their new homes are changing, as the GoCompare.com survey shows, and home sellers must understand what modern home buyers are looking for. Luckily, you don't have to go it alone. If you're looking for some of the best Rightmove estate agents UK has to offer, you need not look further than Doorsteps. Our team of dedicated agents can help you sell your home for as little as £99, and we'll make sure the buyers know your property has a good mobile phone signal.

The overall UK property market continues to show steady progress and growth, as evidenced by various cities around the nation. Depending on your location, you could find yourself in some of the UK's most prised property hot spots, as determined by the Property Reporter website. Do you live in one of the following towns? If so, you're in luck: property in these cities tend to sell the fastest.
Located along England's south coast, Southampton has always been known as a vibrant port city. But to its residents, Southampton could be known as a hotbed of property sales. Most houses in this town stay on the market for around 40 days -- far less than many others in other parts of the UK -- and are valued at nearly £286,524, according to online property website Zoopla. And when a house sells in Southampton, its new owners tend to stay there longer, too -- an average of 7.2 years, to be specific. That's good news for the seller, who has less competition from fellow sellers in a city with high property demand from buyers.
Whether you're a uni student looking to buy your first house or a seasoned member of the local economy ready to sell your home in this central Midlands city, your chance of buying or selling a decent property in this town is very high. In the past 12 months, nearly 10,000 homes have sold in Nottingham, averaging £194,448 per sale. What's more, homeowners in this community tend to stay an average of only 2.8 years, a positive for buyers looking for a wider selection of available property.
You don't have to be just a tourist to enjoy Canterbury. In fact, this city -- a pilgrimage destination for centuries -- holds one of the most prised property markets in all of the UK. Properties here go quickly -- so quick, in fact, that most are gone in less than a month. If you're a property owner in Canterbury, you'll stand to make a decent amount of quid, too -- nearly £339,836, on average.
Do you have property in one of these UK property hot spots? If so, Doorsteps' online estate agents UK office can help you sell your property for as low as £99. To learn more, visit our website or contact us today.
Have you ever asked yourself, 'What do I need to know to sell my property through an online estate agent?' If you have, you're not alone.
Because online estate agents are still a relatively new concept to some, we've compiled this Q&A to guide you through common questions about buying and selling property with an online estate agent.
Question: What is an online estate agent?
Question: How does the home sale process with an online estate agent work?
Reach out to the estate agent. Working with an online agent begins with the seller reaching out to an estate agent. This could be in the form of an email or a phone call. To make the processes move as quickly as possible, a prospective seller should gather the following items before reaching out to the estate agent.
Valuation: These can be obtained free of charge via Doorsteps' free online valuation tool, or may be done in person by an agent at a later date.
Snaps: Gather photos of the property that you wish to include with your listing.
Unique Features: Compile a list of unique property features or features you think will be most attractive to a potential buyer.
The estate agent prepares the materials for listing. After you've contacted the estate agent, they'll begin preparing the items for listing. Most estate agents will list your property on some of the best property listing websites to gain the interest of prospective buyers. After the listing is made, agents will continue their communication with you, helping you schedule property visits from prospective buyers. They may even assist you with price negation, helping you to get the most pounds from the sale.
Finalise the sale. In just a few short weeks, your property agent will help you make the sale you've been waiting for.
Question: How do I get started today?

Scottish property owners, take note: your area of the UK has seen more growth than both England and Wales, according to recent data posted on the UK-based website Property Forum.
So what makes Scottish property so special? To discover more, let's have a look at some of the available data.
England: English property value saw an increase of 3.7 per cent over the past year. That's nearly two points less than Scottish property growth. English property has a higher sale price when compared to Scotland -- the average sale price in England is nearly £243,639 -- but the rate of English growth lacks behind its neighbour to the north.
Wales: Welsh property grew slightly more than English property over the past year, to 4.4 per cent. Overall Welsh property value is also slightly more than Scottish property, with an average value of £156,495. Still, the percentage difference in overall growth could indicate the demand for Welsh property is slightly lower than that of Scottish property.
It should be noted that even on a month-to-month basis, Scottish property is growing at a faster rate than that of other areas of the UK, including England and Wales. Geopolitics and the yet unseen outcome of Brexit aside, the value of Scottish property is predicted to continue to rise in the coming months.
Strong growth in the Scottish property market suggests that now may be the time to sell. If you're an owner of property in Scotland, Doorsteps is here to help you make the most quid from your sale. If you'd like to learn more about how to sell your home online, contact Doorsteps today.
Your relative has recently died. Upon their death, you inherited some property that they had owned in Yorkshire. The property is great -- a nice detached cottage, perfect for a summer holiday -- but you already own some lovely property in South London, where you reside full time.
Many people who inherit property after purchasing their own may choose to sell. If you're looking to sell your property after an inheritance, here's a guide to expenses to consider and steps to take to sell the property you've acquired.
Upon inheriting property, you may need to deal with a number of expenses related to the property you've acquired, including taxes, home insurance and mortgages.
Taxes: Depending on the value of the property you've been left, you may be subject to the Inheritance Tax (IHT). Generally speaking, IHT is not charged on the first £325,000 of the estate. However, you should always talk to a trusted accountant or legal professional when determining what taxes may be owed on the property you inherit.
Home Insurance: Depending on how long -- or even if -- you will live in the property, you may need to purchase home insurance. Unoccupied insurance should be purchased if the home will be unoccupied for more than 30 days.
Mortgages: If mortgage payments remain on the property after you've inherited it, you may be responsible for paying them.
Complete the probate. The 'probate' is the process by which you deal with the legal and financial aspects of acquiring your inherited property. It usually takes between six and 12 months to complete the probate process, where you'll handle resolving all claims and finances of the deceased. For more on the probate process in the UK, see this article from the Gov.uk website.
Buying companies: You can sell your acquired property to a property buying company, who will in turn resale it for a profit. The sale will be quick. However, you will not receive the full market value of the property -- only a small percentage.
An estate agent: You can hire the services of an estate agent. This method makes the home sale process a bit longer, but you'll receive the full value of your home.
Doorsteps offer some of the best online estate agents the UK has to offer, and we provide sellers with some of the cheapest estate agent fees around. If you're ready to sell your inherited property, contact us today.
If you own property in South London, now is a great time to sell your home. Market conditions continue to improve in the area, and sellers are now seeing some of the best conditions for making a profit on their home. No matter which of the 12 South London boroughs you live or own property in, here are three reasons why now is the time you should sell.
1. The average sold price in the area has increased by over 10 per cent in the last year.
Homeowners in South London stand to gain a lot from selling their home. In the past year, the average sold price of homes in the area has increased by 10.36 per cent, according to data from property firm Foxtons -- and that number continues to rise. For sellers, this increase in price is like a sudden influx of quid; the more pounds you can ask for, the more you can make. So far that's translated into some pretty decent sales numbers, too.
2. Some South London sellers can fetch up to £947,000 on their property.
As with any other area of the country, the neighbourhood from which you are selling will often be indicative of how much you can ask from a buyer, but many South London neighbourhoods are doing quite well. Consider Balham, in the Borough of Wandsworth, where the average sold price of a home is £946,916. Currently, the average price for all homes in South London is £590,178. That's an increase of nearly £18,000 from the overall asking prices of a house in the same area in 2017.
3. Most South London homes sell in less than two months of being on the market.
Because of South London's relatively robust property sell market, most houses in the area are sold within a matter of two months or less. The average days on market for a South London house so far in June is 58 days, according to data from Rightmove. That's a reduction of nearly two weeks, or 13 days off, the average days on market for similar South London properties in January 2018.
South London offers some of the most prime property in all of the UK. If you're a property owner in the area, now is the time to sell. Are you looking for South London estate agents to help you sell your home? Doorsteps can help you list and sell your property for one set fee -- no commission charges added.
You may think it's rather difficult to sell properties worth £1m or more, but depending on where in the UK you live, it might be easier than you think. In some towns, Britons are selling their million pound homes in 45 days or less. So where are these homes selling the fastest? The answer is it's not in London -- and the actual where may surprise you even more than this fact.
According to property website Rightmove, Cambridge home sellers asking £1m or more for their property receive their asking price the quickest. In fact, the number of days in which a million pound Cambridge home is sold is faster than nearly all other home sells in the UK -- as fast as 45 days in most cases. That's nearly twice the national average.
Other UK towns that secure buyers of million pound plus homes quickly: Edinburgh and Harpenden. Sellers in those towns can expect to move their million pound properties in around 53 to 54 days, respectively.
But you don't have to be in Cambridge, Edinburgh or Harpenden to see your million pound property go quick. In fact, in nearly half of the 11 UK regions Rightmove studied, million pound homes are selling faster than a year ago. This includes Scotland, East Midlands, North East and the North West regions of the UK, among many others.
Though the location is a primary factor in determining how much your property may be worth -- including whether or not it's in on the of the sought-after million pound plus range -- there are other factors that could push your home valuation over a million quid. Are you interested in learning just how much your property could be worth? Doorsteps' free online property valuation tool can give you an instant quote today.
When a potential buyer enters your house or sees an online advert for your property, you'll want them to have a great first impression. After all, as the saying goes, first impressions count. And whilst many people understand that it's important to stage individual rooms to create a lasting and imposing first impression, one often forgot -- but not often overlooked -- areas in your home that you should be staging is the hallway.
Clean your hallway carpets. Dirt and grime will keep potential buyers away. Make your hallways -- and your home -- inviting by tidying up the carpets with your hoover. If your hallway carpets are especially soiled, you may want to replace them entirely before photographing and listing your house.
Make sure your coats and other hallway-stored items are tidied away. As with any other room in your home, you'll want to make sure your hallway is free of clutter. This means tidying your coats, shoes and other items often stored in hallways.
Remove any superfluous furniture. Some homeowners have furniture and other furnishings in their hallways. Often, this furniture is unnecessary and only makes manoeuvring through the house more difficult. Before listing your property, be sure to remove any superfluous furniture to clear the path for easier manoeuvring and to open the hallway space to make the house seem bigger.
Add inviting decor. Strong wall decor will help to make your hallway space feel cosier. Add vibrant, eye-catching photos or artwork to make the space feel inviting, but avoid decor that distracts from the rest of your home.
Once you have maximised your hallway space, you're now ready to photograph and list your home with internet estate agents. Doorsteps offers a team of dedicated agents to help guide you through the selling process. To see how the team can help you maximise profit on your home, contact us today.
Perhaps you've just purchased your new home through an online property sales website like Doorsteps. Or maybe you're considering buying a house through an online estate agent. Whether you're looking to buy or have already made the purchase, here are four tips that will help you make that new house feel like home.
The first step in making a house feel like home is to tidy the place. Take out and run the hoover, clear any rubbish left from unpacking, and fluff the settee. Once your house is nice and tidy, you'll be certain you're home.
2. Utilise each room from the go.
In order to make your house feel like a lived-in home, you'll want to start creating positive associations with the place. Begin by utilising each room from the time you move in. Make time even whilst unpacking to prepare breakfast in the kitchen, read a good book in the sitting room, and enjoy a nice, luxurious bath. The more you utilise your new living space, the more it'll feel like home.
3. Hang the family photo.
Create a sense of ownership by hanging your family photo. Not only will it add character to your new residence, it'll also act as the welcoming element that elevates your new house to a home.
4. Enjoy a spot of tea.
Take the time to create memories. Enjoy conversing with your family and friends in your new space whilst having a traditional tea. Enjoy an evening of ale in the garden with your chums. Begin making positive memories in your house to make it feel like a home.
Making your new house feel like home is simple when you tick these easy-to-do items off your list. If you're still looking for that right house to make a home, try browsing Doorsteps' easy online property search. And if you're looking to sell your current property to buy your new home, why not enlist the help of one of Doorsteps' friendly property agents. They'll help you sell your home for as little as £99 -- all in, with no commission fees.
The quality of air in your neighbourhood can affect many aspects of your life. Now, some UK home buyers are looking at area pollution levels when considering a home, and with good reason. According to the BBC, nearly 44,000 Britons die each year to conditions relating to the nation's air quality. Luckily, homeowners now have tools to help them determine their area's air quality before putting their home on the market.
It can have serious effects on your health. Air pollution has been linked to a number of illnesses, some fatal, including chronic heart disease, anxiety and memory loss. Additionally, pollution can have detrimental effects on your skin cells, damaging the way you look and feel.
It can harm your children. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs says nearly 3,000 schools in Britain are located in areas with dangerous levels of pollution. Children are especially susceptible to the effects of air pollution, which can affect a child's growth and development and may contribute to conditions such as autism. What's more, mums who are exposed to toxic air are more likely at risk of birthing a baby prematurely.
It can affect the price of a home. Homeowners trying to sell property in an area with significant air pollution can expect nearly 15 per cent less on their overall final sales price than those with a similar home in a less polluted neighbourhood.
Environmental company EarthSense regularly measures and monitors the air quality of towns throughout the UK. In partnership with the BBC, they created a free tool to check the air quality levels in your neighbourhood. Simply type your postcode into the tool to reveal your area's air pollution measurements.
Once you've completed your air quality search, you're ready to start selling your property. Doorsteps offer house valuations online to help you competitively price your home. Check out our free online valuation tool to get started today.

A Special Interest Group of the Society for Medical Anthropology

The following statements were written by the Critical Anthropology of Global Health working group. To access all prior statements from SMA, click here.
Take a Stand: Austerity
Responding to recent global financial crises and related austerity measures, the Critical Anthropology of Global Health (CAGH) Special Interest Group (SIG) of the Society for Medical Anthropology launched the Take a Stand (TAS) on Austerity initiative in 2013. Among the committee's first steps has been drafting a brief statement and bibliography to help define the scope of the TAS on Austerity initiative and to brainstorm how anthropologists can get more involved. Drafts of the working statement and bibliography are currently available online for SMA members as well as other anthropologists to review and provide feedback. Anthropologists of all subdisciplines are highly encouraged to visit CAGH's TAS on Austerity website and to participate in the ongoing discussion. The website may be accessed here. Questions or comments may also be directed to the committee chair Megan Carney, megcarney@gmail.com.
Take a Stand: Health Insurance Reform
The last two decades have witnessed fundamental changes in health insurance systems worldwide. In Latin America, pressure from global financial institutions has led to the introduction of managed care and the privatization of social security funds in Chile and Colombia (Abadía 2012). Similar pressures have led Eastern European nations to adopt private sector reforms to their formerly socialist health care systems (Ahlin 2012; Mishtal 2012), while nations of western Europe are facing unprecedented challenges to their historic traditions of social insurance (Almeida 2012; Castañeda 2012; Larchanché 2012). Across the globe, notions of health as the "right" of the population –only enshrined in international conventions in the middle of the past century—have been challenged by the conversion of health into a privately-purchased commodity. These reforms entail a neoliberal transformation of the concept of governance itself, a resurgence of the role of the private sector in the public provision of health, and a re-conceptualization of the varying responsibilities of the individual, the corporation, and the state…

Take a Stand: What can critical medical anthropology contribute to global health: A health systems perspective
The flow of international aid from wealthier to poorer countries has increased dramatically over the last decade, and is attributable in part to the efforts of health activists, including medical anthropologists, who have rendered bare the realities of health disparities and human suffering. We are now facing an unprecedented moment in the history of global health, in which infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis are no longer peripheral concerns, but primary targets of bilateral aid programs, philanthropy, and research. Emergent health problems range from antibiotic resistance to tobacco use, SARS and Avian Flu, to the flow of health professionals from developing to developed countries. These demand global solutions, challenge the internal sovereignty of nation states, and involve new sets of actors, networks, partnerships and transnational health initiatives.

An active duty military person may get special treatment under state tax laws. His or her state of residency is not determined in the same way.
I am a military personnel, which state is my home state?
It generally depends on what the service person established as a home state of record. This is originally based on where the person lived when they entered the service. Once this is established, the home or record does not change unless the service member changes it officially through the military personnel office.
How is military pay taxed on the state level?
Treatment of military pay is taxable to the home state of record only if it is taxed at all.
If the service member has income, such as a rental property or another job, from a state other than his home state, it is taxable in that state and may be taxable in the home of record state.
How are civilian spouses taxed?
The rules for military personnel above do not apply to civilian spouse. Any income attributable to that spouse is taxable in the state where he or she actually resides.
Some states have provisions where, even though a military member's home or record is in that state, if they live and are stationed in another state, and were not in their home state for more than a certain number of days, they may then be considered nonresidents and not be taxed on their military pay.


Is Your Search Engine Optimization Company Right for You?
Search Engine Optimization is something that every business owner with an online presence needs to incorporate into their business plan. Fortunately, you don't have to learn SEO yourself, since there are many companies that offer organic search engine optimization, but that doesn't mean you should just hire the first company you come across. It's also important to know what you're looking for in an SEO company so you can be sure to choose the right one.
What should you be checking for in a great search engine optimization company? Let's take a look.
There's nothing saying those that are new to SEO won't be good at it, but this is your business we're talking about here. That means you're probably going to want the best you can hire at organic search engine optimization. Even if the company is new, as long as those running it has the experience necessary, you will benefit. Having several years of SEO under one's belt makes it far easier to spot problems when examining a website that isn't bringing in the anticipated traffic.
No matter how experienced the person who works on your search engine optimization is, you'll lose out if they aren't in constant pursuit of the latest methods of ranking. The search engines, Google, in particular, don't just set up a system and leave it, they are constantly changing the way they rank websites. A good search engine optimization company will be watching the changes with an eagle eye and implementing new methods of catching the search engines' attention.
No one can guarantee specific ranking results because this depends on any number of things, but you can certainly look at what the company has previously accomplished. Seeing the results that previous clients have had is a good way to decide if you are going to be able to work with the company and what you should expect in terms of successful search engine rankings.
There are plenty of techniques for getting fast rankings but many of these are actually blackhat or forbidden techniques. If you're found to be using them, you could end up with a serious penalty, being removed from the search engine listings! Needless to say, you don't want to sign up with a company that uses this type of optimization. It's not a good long-term solution and will only give you a little boost for a short time. Then you could pay the price for a very long time. Instead, stick to organic search engine optimization companies that will keep things on the straight and narrow and get long-lasting results.
Unfortunately, not everyone is good at communicating and customer service. Find a search engine optimization company that will keep you in the loop as to what they are doing and you'll be far better off. It really helps to know what is happening and what the plan is to improve your website rankings . . . without having to try multiple times to communicate with the company. Look for a company that is happy to answer your questions, as well, since you should know what is happening in your business, even if you aren't very familiar with SEO.
Search engine optimization is vital if you want to beat out your online competition. You need the search engines to pay attention to your website and if you don't have the time to figure out everything yourself and implement it, then hiring an SEO company is a good way to go. An organic search engine optimization company will be able to help you find the best keywords for your business and then implement everything into your website.

Blue velvet covered wooden scabbard with gold mounts engraved and inset with diamonds, rubies, emeralds and pearls arranged to resemble flowers and vines.
Presented to King Edward VII, when Prince of Wales, during his tour of India in 1875-76 by Ali Murad Khan I Talpur, Amir of Khairpur. The blade of this sword suggests that it was probably made in Iran. The rulers of Khairpur greatly admired Iranian swords and sent agents across Iran and Central Asia to procure them on their behalf. The decoration of the sword hilt and mounts are European in style and were probably made by a European metalworker working in the Indian subcontinent in the late nineteenth century.

Shannon Moham
2022 Inductee, M
When asked about the start of his racing career, Shannon Moham tells this story: "My interest
in motorcycles began back when I received my first dirt bike on Christmas morning at the age of
ten. Never been on one before, but watched riders all the time, so I was sure I could be a star!
Jumped on it and took off, right through my neighbor's garage door. But when I look back on it,
I could only get better, so not a bad start".
Shannon has most certainly "gotten better". His career road racing statistics are startling! He
has rode his way to more than 435 race victories and 650 podium finishes on the way to a
phenomenal 100 series or track championships. He also has set more than 100 class track
qualifying records, many of which broke marks he had previous set. Shannon was Miller
Motorsports Park Sportsman of the Year in 2008 and has won 9 MRA Race of the Rockies GTU
and 10 Clubman Championships.
He has said: " I have so many memories of racing. From epic battles and big crashes, to all the
drama associated with running up front for so long. I do remember racing a National Race, at Miller
Motorsports Park. I was passed on the last turn of the last lap by a young kid who is now in MotoGP.
I was probably 30 at the time, and he walked up to me after the race and told me I was pretty fast for
an old guy". My best memories, however, come from my kids, and the fact that they tell everyone,
"My dad either wins or comes back on the crash cart".
Shannon has followed a belief that you only continue to grow if you work hard, play hard, and take
chances. He graduated with distinction from the US Air Force Academy, served his country in combat,
and includes serving as a rider representative on the MRA Board of directors for ten years as an
important career accomplishment. He is quick to cite an impressive array of sponsors, as well as his
wife, Segren and daughters Denver and Dakota for the inspiration they have given him as he raced his
way into the record books.
We are proud to accept Shannon Moham, our youngest inductee to this date, into the Colorado
Motorsports Hall of Fame, Class of 2022.


Global Blockchain Technologies Corp. has announced a non-binding agreement to create a joint venture with Steemit Inc, to establish a $20m Steem Fund.
The Steem Fund is a venture capital fund for startups building solutions on the Steem blockchain to expand the decentralized social media ecosystem.
Investments from the Steem Fund will be comprised of both Steem tokens tradeable on liquid exchanges and through traditional US dollar investments.
The Steem Fund will be architectured to "support the accelerated development of applications based on Steem's Smart Media Token (SMT) protocol, allowing native tokens based on the Steem blockchain", said a statement.
"SMTs are a technology that allows individual organisations and companies to integrate a customisable and intelligent token system into their website, portal, or platform", it said.
Steem's Smart Media Token (SMT) protocol is native to the Steem Blockchain. SMTs can be run by any publisher without changing any website infrastructure or functions, breaking down barriers to enter the fastest growing industry in fintech, while creating a mutually beneficial bridge between consumers, content, and media revenue.
Global Blockchain and Steemit will jointly determine the ticket size and distribution of all investments, currently planned for full deployment by 2020.
This is an interesting event and we will see how the partnership plays out as Steemit seeks to provide a larger incentive for the consumption of content and the impacts that this will have in how content is structured in the long term.
Steemit, Inc. uses blockchain technology to develop cryptocurrencies that support, improve, and monetize social media sites and networks. It is one the primary developers of the Steem blockchain and Smart Media Tokens (SMTs), as well as steemit.com, the world's first decentralized social network with millions of unique visitors per month. The project was founded in 2016 by Ned Scott and Dan Larimer, creator of BitShares. The two are founders of the Steemit Inc company, which runs the Steemit website and funds ongoing development of the platform.

some In the year that the Rugby World Cup came to Milton Keynes, Living Archive MK began the process of researching club archives and collecting stories from fans, enthusiasts and players. These exhibition panels show some of the results of that research.
We hope that you will be intrigued and surprised by the people and their stories that have enhanced rugby in our area for over 140 years, from its beginnings at Wolverton and Olney – and concurrently at Stony Stratford and Newport Pagnell – through the evolution of the Bletchley and Milton Keynes City clubs (and some of the local teams in between) to the amazing Rugby World Cup held in our Stadium MK in 2015.

Caberlon Caroppi Hospitality Design of Milan worked with the local Skopos distributor (Floorings & Fabrics) to rebrand a 5 star Boutique Hotel. Originally called St Georges hotel, it was transformed into an Indigo under IHG Franchise. The selected fabrics were delivered to the renowned Italian manufacturer Italpoltrone for make-up.
The rooms were designed to each have individual character and personality reflecting a feel of the local neighbourhood. Inspiration was taken from great High Renaissance Architect Donato Bramante and famous Baroque Artist Caravaggio. 60's Italian icon, the legendary Fiat 500, was used to blend with the classical details.
The end result is a stunning mix of modern interiors sat along side the history and beauty of ancient Rome.
Skopos supplied the geometric design Chase from the Erddig & Elle collection in 3 colours for throws and cushions. The Geometric pattern of the Chase design fitted the 'Contemporary/Classic' brief perfectly. Beau velvet and Alto Taffetta were provided in complimentary and contrasting colours. Skopos also supplied 2 colours of Poise faux leather for the upholstered stools creating an interesting mix of textures and layers.
