This quick and easy grilled chicken marinade recipe is healthy, flavorful and made with basic ingredients. It can also be used as a baked chicken marinade.
Fire up the grill or your oven because you have to try out my easy chicken marinade recipe.
Seriously, this is the BEST marinade ever.
It makes the most JUICY and flavorful chicken you can imagine.
How do you make a marinade?
Make it by mixing together oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, honey, herbs and spices (thyme, paprika, black pepper, oregano, red chili flakes) in a bowl. The, place the chicken pieces in this bowl and mix them in the marinade. Cover bowl with saran wrap and marinate in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 24 hours.
How should I season grilled chicken?
If you are marinating chicken, you don't need to season the chicken again. Traditionally, seasoning chicken is done just prior to grilling. Dip the chicken breast or drumsticks or thighs in lemon juice and then coat them in your choice of herbs and spices. Then, grill on both sides until fully cooked.
What can I use to marinate chicken breast?
Oil to hold moisture in the chicken.
Herbs and spices to provide flavor.
Lemon juice, lime juice or vinegar to add subtle tartness.
What do you marinate chicken wings in?
My recipe below works very well on chicken wings too. You would need: soy sauce, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, honey, herbs and spices (thyme, paprika, black pepper, oregano, red chili flakes).
How long do you cook chicken breasts on the grill?
Grill 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked though.
Marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 24 hours.
How to marinate chicken for BBQ? For grilling? For roasting?
The rule of thumb is that the the flavor will become deeper and stronger the longer you marinate chicken. If you prefer mildly flavored chicken, marinate for only 30 minutes. If you like very flavorful chicken, marinate for longer (max: 24 hours!).
It's best to marinate overnight so that flavor really goes deep into the chicken.
Use LOW SODIUM soy sauce. The regular soy sauce makes the chicken very salty.
This barbecue chicken marinade can work well for beef and seafood too but truly tastes the best on chicken.
For a MILD flavor, marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour. For MAXIMUM flavor, marinate overnight or 24 hours.
This recipe works perfectly as a grilled chicken marinade AND baked chicken marinade.
DON'T grill or bake for too long since that will make the chicken dry.
This is a very good WHOLE chicken marinade recipe too but you must marinate that overnight.
To make spicy chicken marinade, increase the quantity of paprika and red chili flakes to suit your preference.
Garnish with cilantro (my favorite), parsley or basil and each of those will add a subtle distinct flavor.
In a deep mixing bowl, add oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, vinegar, ginger, garlic, black pepper, thyme, oregano, paprika, red chili flakes and additional salt (optional).
Place chicken breasts in the bowl and mix them in the marinade thoroughly.
Cover bowl tightly with saran wrap and marinate in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes up to maximum of 24 hours.
When you are ready to grill or bake, use tongs to remove chicken pieces from marinade and place it on a hot grill. Grill each side for 6-7 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
While grilling, baste the chicken with reserved marinade a few times.
Remove chicken breasts from grill and place them on a serving dish. Garnish with chopped parsley, cilantro or basil.
Let the chicken rest for 5 mins and then enjoy!
Leftover grilled chicken can be refrigerated in a sealed container for up to 1 day.
Abeer, this looks amazing. Pinning to my grilling board. I love the video.

Q: Why Lightning Experience is freezing (crash, hang, become unresponsive) after reload via F5? While I'm developing Lightning Components I usually have this workflow:

*

*First I change my code

*Then I save it

*Finally I reload LEX to get the newest version of the component rendered via F5 to see and debug the results.

This is my usual development cycle.
But also when I'm working in LEX as user, I very often use F5 to reload everything. This I do unrelated from development, just to ensure that I see the most recent data.
Starting with Winter 18 I noticed a very odd behavior in at least two different flavors:
a) Regular freeze
Every second time I reload LEX via F5, it get stuck. It's freezing completely and the page becomes unresponsive.
b) Random freezings
Just using LEX (while development or just as normal user) and refreshing with F5 from time to time randomly the same freezing is happening.
In both cases a+b: there is only the release icon visible at that time:

Some time later a Page Unresponsive popup appears:

With Summer 17 this never happened. I cleared the browser cache, uninstalled all browser extensions, installed even different versions of Chrome, but none of this helped.
What is going on here?
At the network tab the freezing happen very early while loading one.app

Update
At least for scenario a) described above I found the reason - see it in the answer below. But this is not all: still b) is happening from time to time but it is rare enough to prevent me for debugging it to nail it down.
Also my colleagues and others here are reporting similar effects. It is happening irregularly. And it's happening on standard pages without any custom components, too. So in my opinion there is a serious bug in W18. Possibly multiple things can cause that - but it's nearly impossible for us to investigate that deeper.
Please feel free to add your scenarios (in the question, in comments or as answers if you solved such freezings).

A: Scenario a) "Regular freeze" ONLY (using Chrome v60.0+)
I turned out that the reason was the way how I was starting LEX...
Because I like to use Aloha (Salesforce Classic) and LEX at the same time, I never used the Menu "My Name" > Switch to Lightning Experience. There are lots of reasons to work in both works in parallel. My way to start LEX was to simply use a link pointing to /one/one.app
What I had then, was kind of a hybrid state: on user level I was still an Aloha user. I just run LEX by link. Now I had several Aloha-tabs running side-by-side with several LEX-tabs. I liked that very much. A REAL switch to LEX causes unwanted jumps of some my opened Aloha-tabs to reload in LEX.
I don't now the exact reasons why, but the crash and freezing does not happen, if I use the standard switch mechanism. I don't like it, but for now that "normal" way to switch the different themes is my "workaround".
Also I have tried to change my link to /one/one.app?source=aloha#/home, but this seems not to help. For now it looks like we really need to be Lightning Users to avoid the freezing. For what I've observed, this behavior is very good to reproduce.
I would highly appreciate it if Salesforce could allow us to use just two different URLs to access and switch between the two experiences dynamically and (more importantly!) to use them in parallel peacefully coexisting in tabs like it worked fine until Winter 18.
As said above there is also at least scenario b) and this is not the only reason for such freezings. If you have similar experiences, let's collect them here. This caused my a lot of headache and I'm sure a list of things to check will help others.

A: Just received this mail from Salesforce, seems to be fixed in all instances:

Dear Sebastian:
We are pleased to notify you that the
  following Known Issue has been resolved: Chrome 60 and above crashes
  when "Enable secure and persistent browser caching to improve
  performance" is unchecked in Session Settings on Winter '18. Thank you
  for being patient while we worked to address this issue. Please feel
  free to reach out to Customer Support if you have further questions.
  Sincerely, Salesforce Success Team

And I can confirm, that I can't reproduce it anymore. Not with the Home page and not with a custom Component page.

A: We have had this issue in Chrome for some of our developers. Salesforce has told us that this is an issue with Chrome specifically and the fix for us was to enable caching via Session Settings in Setup:

We previously had this disabled as it was caching our components and causing problems in development, but these issues seem to be resolved now.

A: Any Scenario: use Chrome <= v59.0 or Mozilla Firefox
Now Known Issue has been created by Salesforce confirming the situation: https://success.salesforce.com/issues_view?id=a1p3A000000mCfPQAU
As stated there this issue is caused by LEX with Chrome v60.0+.
I can confirm, that using Chrome v59.0 (or v57.0) now for a couple of hours not one of these freezing occurred. Also from my colleagues using Firefox I got the indication, that none of such freezing are happening.

A: I found that it was one of my apex controller methods.
It was getting hung up on one of its queries and that would cause the page to crash. I had 'WHERE Id = :var' and var was blank or null it caused this hanging problem. I would open up the network tab in chrome console to check if any apex controller methods are hanging.
When I put an if-statement to only query if var is not null, it does not hang anymore.

DEMOIVRE, ABRAHAM (1667–1754), English mathematician of French extraction, was born at Vitry, in Champagne, on the 26th of May 1667. He belonged to a French Protestant family, and was compelled to take refuge in England at the revocation of the edict of Nantes, in 1685. Having laid the foundation of his mathematical studies in France, he prosecuted them further in London, where he read public lectures on natural philosophy for his support. The Principia mathematica of Sir Isaac Newton, which chance threw in his way, caused him to prosecute his studies with vigour, and he soon became distinguished among first-rate mathematicians. He was among the intimate personal friends of Newton, and his eminence and abilities secured his admission into the Royal Society of London in 1697, and afterwards into the Academies of Berlin and Paris. His merit was so well known and acknowledged by the Royal Society that they judged him a fit person to decide the famous contest between Newton and G. W. Leibnitz (see Infinitesimal Calculus). The life of Demoivre was quiet and uneventful. His old age was spent in obscure poverty, his friends and associates having nearly all passed away before him. He died at London, on the 27th of November 1754.
The Philosophical Transactions contain several of his papers. He also published some excellent works, such as Miscellanea analytica de seriebus et quadraturis (1730), in 4to. This contained some elegant and valuable improvements on then existing methods, which have themselves, however, long been superseded. But he has been more generally known by his Doctrine of Chances, or Method of Calculating the Probabilities of Events at Play. This work was first printed in 1618, in 4to, and dedicated to Sir Isaac Newton. It was reprinted in 1738, with great alterations and improvements; and a third edition was afterwards published with additions in 1756. He also published a Treatise on Annuities (1725), which has passed through several revised and corrected editions.
See C. Hutton, Mathematical and Philosophical Dictionary (1815). For Demoivre's Theorem see Trigonometry: Analytical.


The superintendent plans to recommend building three new schools to tackle overcrowding and aging buildings.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Knox County Schools is considering spending an estimated $60 million to build three new schools to combat overcrowded classrooms and old schools.
Lonsdale and Adrian Burnett Elementary Schools would get new buildings, and a new school would be built in Northwest Knox County to help decrease the number of students at Karns Elementary and Hardin Valley Elementary.
As Knox County grows, so does the number of students going to school. Superintendent Bob Thomas says the district is desperate for more space.
"It really doesn't meet the needs that we feel like we need for students," Thomas said. "You have to have seats for students, and when you look at the northwest portion of the county we are going to soon run out of seats."
The superintendent plans to submit his recommendation to the Board of Education in April. From there, it will be submitted to Knox County mayor Glenn Jacobs and the County Commission for approval.
In 2006, less than 53,000 students attended classes. Now the number is up to nearly 61,000. Schools everywhere from Lonsdale to Karns to Hardin Valley are feeling the impact.
"It is very clear just even to the naked eye that these schools are well beyond their prime and need to be replaced," said Board of Education Chair Terry Hill. "We will be in a serious overcrowding situation in those Elementary Schools if we don't get something else built out there."
Adrian Burnett Elementary has been on the list of capital improvement recommendations for years, but always without funding. The same is true for a solution to ease overcrowding at Karns and Hardin Valley Elementary Schools, where the district says enrollment is projected to increase by 6 percent and 9 percent over the next five years respectively.
At Lonsdale Elementary, Thomas says the district made a promise to the community that they plan to keep.
"When we met with the Lonsdale community last year and the faculty, we made a commitment that we would take a look at the facility because there were some overcrowding issues," said Thomas.
The list of capital improvement recommendations is based on metrics like overcrowding, how old buildings are, and immediate need. Some projects, like construction to Adrian Burnett Elementary, can stay on the list for years without actually getting funding.
"A lot of this depends on funding and the availability of funding of course," said Thomas. "Everyone would like a new school, but the functionality of the building, and making sure that the code requirements are what they need to be, and that the overcrowding situation is taken care of... those are the factors we would look at initially."


Widespread drought has cast a dark shadow on the gardening community. In these times of water conservation, many homeowners and institutions have come under fire for using sprinklers or garden hoses to water their lawns. Lawn maintenance and caring for one's garden are in danger of becoming wasteful activities.
Fortunately, there are ways to still have a beautiful garden and keep it thriving without using up too much water. You can opt to make it a DIY project, or consult a professional gardener to draw up a plan for your drought-resistant lawn. Either way, the secret is in keeping everything practical and low-maintenance while creating visual panache.
A smooth, well-manicured lawn is impractical during a drought because it is difficult to maintain with minimal water supplies. It is also hard to hide dry and barren patches on a flat lawn. Go for a mixed-garden bed instead. You can make up for possible visual gaps in your lawn with different textures and shapes. Sandstone boulders and paving stones can be interspersed with tall native grasses that do not require constant watering – plus they can prevent erosion while allowing rainwater to hydrate the soil.
This is an effective way to keep your plants directly hydrated without wasting water the way a sprinkler system does. A drip-irrigation system can be adjusted to suit the season so you can take advantage of moisture from the cold months.
There are low-maintenance plants that only need irrigation once every couple of months. Some drought-tolerant shrubs, trees, evergreens, and perennials include yarrow, Spanish lavender, African daisies, bottlebrush, rockroses, juniper, myrtle, oleander, bougainvillea, yellow bells, aloe, all manner of cacti, and most native plants. Many of these examples have minimal to moderate watering needs, come in a variety of colorful blooms attractive to hummingbirds and bees, and feature gorgeous textures and scents.
Mulching is an effective solution to keep moisture locked in the soil where it needs it most. Rubber mulch is particularly reliable at keeping the soil and plant roots hydrated because it doesn't retain moisture itself. Just two inches of mulch spread out evenly between plants can keep temperatures even and foliage healthy and thriving.
Stone or wooden benches, birdbaths, gazebos, and sculpted garden ornaments not only add drama to your lawn, but also much-needed shade for grass and flowers. Keep textures and shapes varied to heighten visual appeal. It's also good to consider how these ornaments can catch rainwater for plants, the way sloping stones, fountains, and ponds do.

Indian Government distances from 'fake' KBC lottery text messages
The Indian government has warned the public to be vigilant against fraudsters after distancing itself from text messages perceived to be from the popular show Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) telling recipients they have won a lottery prize.
As reported by The Free Press Journal, the scheme sent out messages to large amounts of potential victims claiming they had won ₹25.
Reacting to noise on social media, the Press Information Bureau fact-checking team issued a statement clarifying that the scheme was a scam and had no connection to the central government.
NDTV reported that 'The PIB also provided a link to Delhi Police's Cyber Cell in its Instagram handle that offered more details about the "KBC Lottery Frauds" and asked people to follow some precautions when dealing with such claims.'
The Mumbai Police took to social media to warn users not to respond to any text messages claiming to be from the KBC lottery.
Responding to one user, the Police stated: "Don't entertain such messages. They may be fraudsters. (We) request you to report the matter at your nearest police station for necessary action."
It comes at a time when lottery fraud appears to be on the rise. In the UK, data from Action Fraud has detailed that almost £1m has been stolen by lottery fraudsters over the last seven months.

Today our Nat turns eight months old. Three-fourths of a year. We've been together two weeks and one day.
It hurts that we missed so much with him. We have been pursuing his adoption since he was less than a month old and it was completed in his birth-country in two and a half months. But then US immigration was very slow in processing and so we waited, and waited, and waited. Sometimes all that waiting still stings a little. Just waiting for one person after another to sign, file, issue the right piece of paper. Waiting for appointments. Waiting in lines that when you reach the front only means waiting in another line.
But this smile – this one right here? It takes my breath away. This child is a roaring fire and a snuggly blanket on a wet and rainy day.

Blossom Stages of the Orange Tree
By: J.D. Chi
orange tree image by Svetlana Tikhonova from Fotolia.com
Like most fruit trees, before orange trees bear fruit, they must first produce blossoms from which the fruit will set. Orange blossoms are small, fragrant flowers that can cover a whole tree and perfume the air. Orange blossoms, which go through three stages before dropping from the tree, are the state flower of Florida. Most blooms do not evolve into fruit, as they fall from the tree.
When orange blossoms first appear on a tree, they are small, round white buds about the size of a pea. The buds form in small groups on individual offshoots of the main branches. The buds begin to form in late winter or early spring, depending on the climate. As the buds mature, they become elongated as the petals develop.
Like most fruit trees, before orange trees bear fruit, they must first produce blossoms from which the fruit will set.
Orange blossoms, which go through three stages before dropping from the tree, are the state flower of Florida.
Buds open into small, white or pink, waxy-feeling blossoms that have five petals that form a cup around a large group of orange- or yellow-tipped stamens. The flowers are about 1 inch in diameter and appear in small clusters. Though most flowers will not ultimately produce fruit, all are fragrant.
Petal Drop
As orange blossoms age and/or become pollinated, they begin to lose their petals, which usually drop one at a time. As the petals drop, a pollinated flower will give way to a tiny, green fruit that may take six months or longer to mature into a usable orange.
Japanese Orange Blossom Trees
The Japanese orange blossom tree grows as a small tree or large shrub that can be 15 feet tall and equally wide at maturity. The Japanese orange blossom tree does well planted in either full sun or partial shade, but the amount of light it receives may affect its growth habit. The tree tolerates any type of soil but does best in one that is fertile and well drained. These can be controlled with insecticidal sprays as needed. One of these is a variegated form (P. tobira "Variegatum") that is slightly dwarfed, growing 5-to-10-feet tall, and has grayish-green leaves with white margins. It is more tender than other cultivars and is suitable for USDA plant zones 9 and 10.

The most-famous creations by the late George Barris were wildly extravagant so the Pick of the Day might seem fairly restrained.
The most-famous creations by the late George Barris were wildly extravagant – the original Batmobile, the Munster Koach, Farrah Faucett's mink-lined Corvette – so the Pick of the Day might seem fairly restrained.
The 1951 Lincoln Lido is a two-tone green custom coupe that was built by Barris and his leading painter, the late Roy "Tubs" Johnson, who owned the car for many years after it was finished, according to the St. Louis, Missouri, classic car dealer advertising the car.
But not only did the Lido receive custom bodywork and paint by Barris, who died last year, and Johnson, the Lincoln reputedly was pinstriped by none other than iconic customizer Von Dutch, according to the car's former owner.
According to the seller, the paint, chrome and trim are in excellent condition. The custom interior reflects the style and paint scheme of the body, with several George Barris touches including his signature and special badging.
The car is powered by its original 337 cid flathead V8 fed by a Holley two-barrel carburetor and attached to a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission.
The Lincoln Lido, as well as four other George Barris "kustom kars" were sold in January during Barrett-Jackson's Scottsdale auction. The Lincoln was a steal at just $18,700, according to the Barrett-Jackson website.
Now, the dealer is asking a more-expected price of $49,900, which would buy a car with the custom imprint of George Barris, Tubs Johnson and Von Dutch. That still seems fairly reasonable, especially considering that the original Batmobile sold at Barrett-Jackson for $4.6 million.


Certified nursing assistants form the foundation of basic nursing care. They work closely with licensed nursing personnel in providing care to patients in hospitals and residents in long-term care and assisted living facilities. CNAs duties primarily involve bedside care. Their duties include bathing, dressing, feeding, and grooming patients who cannot help themselves. They also assist with toileting, measure and record vital signs, communicate concerns to nurses and senior staff, dress wounds, and assist patients with mobility. In South Carolina, prospective CNAs must complete a minimum 100 hours of classroom and clinical instruction and take the state Nurse Aide Competency Evaluation. After obtaining state certification, new CNAs can work in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, patients' homes, and long-term care facilities.
The nurse assistant program at Greenville Technical College prepares students for a world of opportunities in the field of healthcare. Students learn how to function in long-term care, assisting patients with the activities of daily living. The course comprises of 60 hours in the classroom and simulated lab and 40 hours of clinical experiences at a skilled nursing facility. Students accepted into the program will be subject to a drug screen on the second day of classes. Applicants must meet the enrollment requirements, including a criminal background check, and the ability to read, write, and understand English to a minimum sixth-grade level. Students must bend, lift, and stand long hours during the course, so students must be physically capable of managing the exerting duties. Classes meet from 9:00 am to 3:30 pm Monday through Friday – 17 sessions total. Graduates are prepared to take the state certification exam. Students will complete the application for testing ($101 fee) on the final day of class to take the test on-site. Tuition for the program is $849 plus $27 for the course textbook.
Ignite Healthcare Institute offers day, evening and weekend nursing assistant classes to prepare students for entry-level employment as a Certified Nursing Assistant. The flexible schedules are designed to accommodate working professionals. Daytime classes run from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm for three weeks. Evening classes are four weeks and run from 4:30 pm to 9:30 pm.

Psaki's Media Scandal Has Grown Even Bigger!
Jen Psaki is a failure
The White House Press Secretary has had a hard time answering all the questions she receives from the media.
From The Hill,
"White House press secretary Jen Psaki looks set to leave her job soon — but it's her next move that's causing controversy.
Psaki is expected to go to MSNBC, where it appears likely she will host a show, perhaps on the streaming platform Peacock.
The problem isn't that someone with a high-profile political role is on the cusp of getting a cable news gig. That is a very well-trodden path.
What's unusual about Psaki's case is that she has seemingly been negotiating such a deal while still serving as White House press secretary. CNN was also widely reported to be trying to secure her services, but apparently lost out to MSNBC."
At a minimum, it gives rise to the perception that Psaki has had an incentive to treat potential future employers favorably — and that CNN and MSNBC, both competing to land her, have had their own incentives to ingratiate themselves with her.
"It's hard for the White House to have their chief spokesperson be on deck to be working with the people who are sitting at the briefing," said Tobe Berkovitz, a professor emeritus at Boston University who specializes in political communications. "And it's bad for cable news, which already has a reputation for being overly partisan, overly biased."
"She isn't even out the door yet and she is one direct deposit away from starting a job at MSNBC," Berkovitz added, "so it's bad for both sides."

"When we close, high-risk children are left in volatile situations. That's the plain and simple of it. They may or may not get hurt; they're left at risk. Most of the children we serve, particularly at Cricket's House, are really young and even more vulnerable."
Garcia said the nonprofit agency receives about 60 percent of its funding from the state. The rest comes from fund raising set up by the board of directors at each house — Guardian House in Oakdale, Verda's House in Turlock, Cricket's House and Marsha's House in Modesto, and the primary center, Sawyer's House.
The five were closed July 1-5. Marsha's House shut its doors for most of June. The others had additional closures.
"It was tough," Garcia said. "We were trying to navigate and survive through this tough state crisis. We had to close last year, too, but not the main center. Fortunately, some wonderful people pulled together and gave us some donations and loans so that we could reopen on July 6."
She said the state recently paid about half of the money owed, leaving a tab of slightly more than $100,000.
"They paid us for July and gave us an advance for part of August, but haven't paid for June yet," Garcia said. "It makes no sense, but mind you, we're not complaining."
The shortage puts more pressure than usual on the fund-raising boards.
Velma Farinha, a Modesto insurance agent, is board secretary for Cricket's House. She is helping to organize a benefit golf tournament Sept. 14 at Spring Creek Country Club in Ripon.
Fees for golfers are $125, which includes a cart, drinks, a barbecue lunch and tee prizes. Last year, the event netted about $50,000.
But what she especially lacks this year are sponsors, which is where most of the money is raised, she said.
"This year, with everyone watching their expenses, we're having a hard time," Farinha said. "We want to raise enough to keep the house open."
Sponsorships are $50 to get your name on the scoreboard, $100 for a name on a green and $200 for the tee.
"It's really an inexpensive way these days for businesses to advertise," Farinha said. "For $200, your name is out on the golf course all day."
It's also a chance to mix pleasure with helping children, Garcia said.
"If they're golfers, this is an opportunity to do something they love while helping a cause," she said. "It's going to make a huge difference for young children who have no other opportunities. If they're not a golfer, there are other ways they can participate."

One of the world's greatest challenges is sustainable energy production. As fossil fuels are depleted, the search for alternative energy becomes increasingly urgent. Alternative energy sources must be economical and have minimal impact on the environment, so we are investigating wave, tide, wind and solar sources. We need to ensure security, affordability, sustainability and scalability to future demands to create systems for the long-term that are flexible and resilient.
The University of Leicester is involved in a number of industrial collaborations that are leading the way in the search for alternative energy sources. One such example comes from our Condensed Matter Physics Research Group, who are developing thin and transparent photovoltaic film that can be applied to large surface areas, including windows.
High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC)
HVDC systems are being developed to boost voltages for transmission over long distances, ideal for application in offshore wind farms and the European super grid. Our Electrical Power and Power Electronics Research Group specialise in modelling the long term performance of insulating materials, which is critical to the success of HVDC grids.
Our lead academic in this area is Dr Steve Dodd.
Alstom KTP: delivering a solution to the global energy challenge
Alstom, producer of 25% of the world's electricity supply, worked with the University of Leicester to develop methods of utilising HVDC.
Whilst there are many cables available for AC transmission, HVDC cable has had relatively little research into stresses and failure modes. Alstom approached us as a world-renowned centre of excellence in electrical power and smart grids, to set up a Knowledge Transfer Partnership. The award-winning partnership embedded a highly-qualified graduate in Alstom's technical centre who modelled the optimal cable and identified a supplier that met Alstom's requirements.
Alstom gained a long-term competitive edge, winning business as a result of having optimised their equipment, which increased customer confidence in the reliability and safety of their service.
Dr Paul Lefley from the Electrical Power and Power Electronics Group has been involved in several industry projects to improve energy saving, including:
Increasing the storage and energy production in thermoelectric generators (European Thermodynamics Limited)
High powered and ultra-fast battery recharging – Improving efficiency of electric motors (Synchropulse)


As promised, a video clip from Riley's ongoing Infant Swimming Resource lessons. This is about 2 minutes of his 10-minute lesson last week. It's horrible lighting. (I should have been on the other side.) It gives a better idea at least of how he's doing.
This clip is his instructor taking him through some different exercises of how he could fall in the water, different angles, etc. Marcy has been working on stopping him from kicking so much during his back floats as you'll see him do lots here.
If you watch through the end you can see her burping him a little and then he puts his hand on his hand and says "Daddy ate it." At least he keeps his sense of humor during his lessons. Such a silly one.
He's progressed a lot even from here. This week we've been practicing floats with him fully clothed. Today we did summer clothes and shoes and tomorrow we're doing full winter gear. Better videos to come!


The 2018 Chevrolet Cruze is actually a compact automobile offered in a particularly broad array of configurations: hatchback or sedan, manual or automatic, diesel or gas.
Most Cruzes are actually equipped with a little turbocharged 4 cylinder gasoline engine rated at 153 horsepower as well as 177 pound feet of torque.
That is a surprise given the concept is now regular on a number of the Cruze's main competitors.
The program could be fitted to Premier models and certain LT, based on some other choices. The Cruze hatchback is especially neat looking at the back, with its pert tailgate as well as mock diffuser rear bumper layout.
More and more rivals are actually eliminating hubcaps in favor of regular alloy wheels, and provided the Cruze's fairly premium pricing, it is a surprise to notice these fundamental wheels as standard.


The Wrap, a publication that covers news in Hollywood, interviewed Attorney David Diamond about the case of a wrongfully detained television producer, Charles Belk.
On Sep. 2, 2014, The Wrap published an article entitled, "Wrongfully Detained Black TV Producer's Arrest Record Probably Won't Go Away." While Attorney David Diamond has no ties to this particular case, The Wrap interviewed him for his expert opinion on the case.
"Close to 100 percent of the time when someone is arrested, it will stay in that database," Attorney Diamond told The Wrap.
A few weeks after the Beverly Hills Police Department admitted that its officers had mistaken television producer Charles Belk for a bank robber and wrongfully detained him, Belk's criminal record history, including the record of his arrest, finger prints, and mug shot probably won't go away.
Attorney Diamond has years of experience representing clients in wrongful arrest cases. Diamond told The Wrap that it literally happens almost every single day. "Often times it's based on race and often times it's based on laziness by law enforcement agencies."
Belk was arrested on Aug. 22 as he was walking towards his vehicle to check the time on the parking meter.
After the case of mistaken identity was over, the Beverly Hills police did issue an apology saying that it deeply regretted mistaking Belk for a criminal.
Hours before his arrest, Belk was at an Emmy Awards gifting suite. He told The Wrap that he was detained near Wilshire and La Cienega Boulevards when a motorcycle officer had pulled up next to him and asked him to come over to him. "He asked to see my identification and asked me to sit on the curb."
According to Belk, a police lieutenant later told him that he matched the description of an armed robber, he was wearing the same color shirt and pants. He also met the same physical description: tall, bald headed, black male.
As far as his arrest record, Belk didn't think enough was being done to clear his name. "It's unfair," he said. "I want my fingerprints, mug shots and arrest record removed."
Attorney Diamond explained that not all hope is lost. "There is a petition called a Petition to Seal and Destroy an Arrest Record. He can file it with the arresting police agency."

Ann and I went to Spring Creek Park, here in San Angelo, a few mornings ago. One of the first things we do is to check out this huge live oak tree. Half the time there is a Great Horned Owl hanging out there. Sometimes his spouse joins him and this is one of those days. We circled the tree from about 20 yards out. We eventually spotted the male, but he was back in the branches, partially hidden. I gave up on trying to get a good photo, and started to drive away. As we did, we were startled to see the female take wing from another part of the tree. We hadn't realized she was even sitting in there.
Anyway, we watched as she flew low under other trees in the park and eventually came to rest on some dead limbs of another tree, 500 yards away from her initial perch. We had a good view of her, and noticed that she was out in the open, about 30 feet above the ground. We drove over to that location, being careful to not flush her. We kept our distance, and stopped about 35 yards away where I had a good angle to photograph her. With my long 150-600mm lens, I do not need to get close with my mobile blind, (My Ford Escape). She was pretty much back-lit, but the skies were overcast so it made the job easier. But I was able to correct that in editing. Here is the result of that confrontation.
After that fun experience, we decided to see what else there was to see. We drove down near a favorite reedy area on the water. We are rewarded to see a Common Yellowthroat fly up into a nearby tree. They are one of my favorite of the little birds. A very shy bird, I was fortunate to catch it in the open.
Another bird that is seen in great numbers around here this time of year is the Yellow-rumped Warbler. We saw this one in another tree. They move around a lot so it is difficult to catch one sitting very long. I like the pose of this one.
The sparrows are my nemesis. I have difficulty with the identification of most of them. So it was with this Rufous-crowned Sparrow. I had a suspicion that was what it was when I took the photo, but I took to Facebook to get confirmation from some birding friends. We spotted it in Spring Creek Park amongst the trees.
Those were the only "keepers" of that little foray into the wild. I'll be back again in a few days with more.

"Istrian scale" refers both to a "unique" musical scale of folk music genres from Istria and Kvarner which use the style. It is named for the Istrian peninsula. Istrian folk music is based on a distinctive six-tone musical scale (the so-called Istrian scale), and the peninsula's two-part, slightly nasal singing. The two-part singing and playing in the Istrian scale, a traditional singing practice characteristic of the Istrian region and the north Adriatic coastal area and islands, was inscribed in UNESCO's List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2009.

Genres include kanat and tarankanje; techniques include nasal tone, variation and improvisation, and resolution to the unison or octave; and instruments include double reeds such as sopele, shawms, bagpipes, and other instruments such as flutes and tambura lutes. It was first named by Ivan Matetić Ronjgov early in the twentieth century, assisting his study and notation of Croatian music.

Description
Non-equal-tempered, the scale could approximately be notated as: E-F-G-A-B-C [hexatonic] (see: enharmonic), the first six notes of an octatonic scale on E. It may be thought of in various ways, such as the Gregorian Phrygian mode with lowered 4th, 5th, and 6th degrees (on E: E-F-G-A-B-C-D [heptatonic]). Performances feature diaphony and the Phrygian cadence (in E: F and D moving to E).

Though, "relative intonation var[ies] considerably from example to example [and between instruments]," the scale has also been described as derived from just intonation: subharmonics seven to fourteen (approximately D, E, F, G, A, B, C, D')( and ).

In Haydn's String Quartet in F minor, Op. 20 No. 5, something like the Istrian mode, but without its top note, is found. Uroš Krek's Inventiones ferales (1962) uses the scale, "in a disguised manner". Tartini may have studied the scale, and Bartók took note of the scale. Karol Pahor's cycle of 15 pieces, Istrijanka (1950), was the result of study of the Istrian mode, as was Danilo Švara's Sinfonia da camera in modo istriano (1957). The Istrian mode  occurs in Josip Štolcer-Slavenski's Balkanofonija (1927).

Throughout the areas of Istria and the Kvarner Gulf the distinctive vocal singing has spread, consisting of alternating half and whole steps, which, particularly in older singers' and instrumentalists' renditions, are untempered. The songs are sung by pairs of singers (male, female, or mixed) in a characteristic two-part polyphony in minor thirds (or major sixths) with a cadence to a unison or an octave. Singers distinguish the higher (na tanko 'thin') part from the lower (na debelo 'fat').

EXTERIOR / HISTORY-------------------------------------
The Lotus Europa (also known as the 'Type 46'), was produced from 1967 till 1975. There were several versions made throughout these years. They all featured a lightweight fiberglass body, and a total of 9,887 were built. 1975 model-year Europas are the rarest: just 57 of them were made in this last year. Call me if you ever find one.
As the story goes, Colin Chapman (owner/operator of Lotus way back when) at some point in 1964 wanted a replacement for the famous but aging Lotus Seven. His dream eventually led to the Europa Series 1 (also known as the S1), Lotus's first mid-engine production car. It became the first of a long line of mid-engine autos by Lotus, many of which are available in Gran Turismo, of course.
The original target price for future customers was to be just £650, which meant that corners needed to be cut for the final car to be profitable. It takes a lot of cash to create a new design, after all. To trim costs, the body and chassis were welded together like a race car. The seats were very simple, and could not be adjusted (one had to move the pedals instead). The interior of the S1 Europa was rather sparse and didn't cater much to comfort. One got a handful of dials and a heater that eventually wouldn't work and that was it!
The Series 2 (offered in 1969 I think) was much improved. It had power-electric windows and the body was no longer bonded to the chassis, which meant it could be repaired a lot easier if the Europa was in an accident. Generally the interior was more user-friendly, tho this was still no Cadillac. The Europa in GT4 is supposed to be from this 2nd generation, although Polyphony Digital screwed up and named it a Europa "Special". More on this later...
Up to this point, the Europa was an exported car; most of them had been oddly bound for continental Europe (hence the name 'Europa'). But sometime in the early '70s, the Europa finally became available in the UK as well. Interestingly, one could buy one of these cars either as a kit or as a finished product.
As far as performance goes, the S1 had some advantages over the S2: it was lighter and had a closed underside, which aided its aerodynamic profile. The Europa S1 has a drag coefficient of just .29, pretty darn slippery. The welded body meant it was structurally a better car than the S2, which meant better handling & maneuverability, in theory...somewhat in reality. It also had some major flaws: the car's fixed seats and spartan interior ensured that only true sports car enthusiasts would enjoy having an S1 in the long run. Also, the rear of the car had bulky panels on each side which blocked vision. I guess those who designed the Europa were more familiar with making race cars, and were used to worrying about what's ahead...not what's behind.
In 1971, the car's small Renault engine was replaced with a slightly bigger Lotus-Ford Cosworth twin-cam, which was simply known as the 'Europa Twin Cam'. Not only was the engine a little bigger, the body was raised a bit so larger people could fit thru the doors. Still, it's a pretty claustrophobic car at just under 43" tall.
The last wave of Europas (known as Europa Specials) started in 1973. This, I think, is the car that's in GT2, since these were the only Europas that had a 5-speed gearbox. PD erroneously gave the earlier '71 Europa Twin-Cam in GT4 an extra gear, which means GT4's model should have a 4-speed instead of a 5.
GT2's spec sheet and various Lotus-based websites praise the Europa's handling, and make absolutely no mention of the frustration that's faced trying to make this car useful! Perhaps in real-life, it was a blast to drive, but I doubt the Europa was pushed to Gran Turismo speeds very often. Get a Europa up past 130 mph (the real-life production model's top speed was rated about 123) and you'll see what I mean: it gets very unstable. Not to say it isn't fun, though, 'cause it is. Just make sure you've got your countersteering down.
Let's get to the point here: although low-powered and small, this one is really for expert drivers, even before engine upgrades are in place.
If we can make an analogy, I like to think of the Europa as an example of what's on one side of a spectrum, and such cars as S13 Silvia Q's, Miatas, and front-drive Civics and Mitusbishi FTOs on another side...these latter cars being very easy for a beginner to drive and learn from. I'm not saying that a beginner or an intermediate Gran Turismo racer can't drive and win with a Europa in a competitive situation, I'm simply stating that to drive one WELL without unwanted drift, oversteer, slides, and/or accidents takes enormous concentration.
We can never truely master this vintage Lotus; we can merely keep its difficult nature at bay. This is one of those cars that's constantly needing attention, like a jealous cat. Some cars handle like crap when they're stock, but put a better suspension under them, and presto; it's an obvious improvement. Not so with the Europa. ...I think you get the point.
The Europa is a prize car which can be won in GT2 or GT4. Since it's awarded (GT2) from the very unfair 2nd Historic Cup race at Rome (assuming you're dueling the GT40), it's not particularly easy to obtain. GT4 Europas are earlier 1971 models from the S2/twin-cam generation. These can be won from the British Lightweight Series in the European League. These are lightweights at 1,609 pounds, and in my opinion it's better to keep the weight on this car, since it gets more and more nervous as weight gets stripped. The racing body (GT2) is worth it, though. It weighs in at just 1,432 pounds, but provides a good amount of downforce, making it highly useful since the car's spin-out factor gets reduced significantly.
There are a total of four color schemes (including a mock John Player Special black and gold paint job!) Bloody smashing!!! Tally HO!!!
-----------ENGINE / DRIVETRAIN----------
Original S1 and S2 Lotus Europas had a 1,470 cc 4-cylinder engine derived from the Renault 16 that only produced 78 hp @ 6,000 rpm, which was thankfully replaced by the 1558 cc motor that's in our game cars. This latter engine has an aluminum alloy head over a cast-iron block, and was fed by two Zenith-Stromberg carbs.
Those who have trouble making up their mind should steer clear of this section. Those who love options will have a great time, though; they'll have plenty of choices here. A total of twelve power upgrades are available: three levels of normal tuning, three turbos (two in GT4), engine balancing, port & polish, computer chip, and the three air filter / exhaust set-ups. This makes for a total of something like 48 different power configurations if my math is correct (chances are it's not. I failed Geometry and Algebra II back in high school, but you get the point). Some of these upgrades do something to the vibrant rattling sound of the engine, too...simply invigorating! I've always wanted to drive an old 4-cylinder, 2-seat sports car like an MG, this is as close as I'll ever get...God bless Gran Turismo.
Anyways, no matter what we do, the Europa will never be a high-powered car. With full NA tuning in GT2, it makes just 240 bhp @ 7,400 rpm with 180 ft-lbs. of torque. With the Stage 3 turbo, it'll crank out 304 hp @ 7,100 rpm and 237 foot-pounds @ 6,100 rpm. Doesn't sound like much, but since the car weighs about 1,600 pounds at the most, it can actually be taken to a good number of races...assuming the driver can control it, that is. A 7,000 rpm redline gets raised to 7,750 with Stage 2 NA tuning in GT2, but oddly the turbo's tach doesn't change with upgrades at all.
The mid-engine's weight over those rear axles guarantees very little off-mark tire spin. Power may not be great, but at least it doesn't get wasted. For gearing, it's possible to rely on the factory-installed transmission (built by Austin) as long as you don't mind the fact that 5th gear is way taller than 4th. Some folks may simply want to get the full-racing gearbox since it provides the most flexibility. The sports gearbox can be used for certain tracks, too, but it will redline too early at others. I have no use for the semi-racing tranny at all.
Well, now that we've got that covered, let's suss out the underparts, shall we?
-------------CHASSIS / HANDLING--------------
Like I mentioned earlier, this area will be most problematic. Get ready for the fun, y'all.
If the Europa were either a lightweight or a mid-engine car, it would be more forgiving in our videogame, but since it's both light AND mid-engined, rolling on narrow '60s-era tires...
Basically, those who are having problems controlling the Europa in GT2 ought to invest in some racing slicks early on...preferably softs or mediums. For GT4, we often won't have this luxury, since many of the races a Europa will compete in require sports tires at best. Therefore, it is possible to experience understeer, unwanted drifting, fishtaily-oversteer, and front-end snapback all in one corner.
In GT2, I finished the Mid-Engine Challenge, and found that I could use sports tires for the 1st race at Grand Valley East, but had to put some medium slicks on at High Speed Ring and Red Rock Speedway. The drones in these two latter races are all on slicks, anyways, as proven by Sucahyo over at GTP. Mid-engine cars in this game have a tendency to slide around alot on banked tracks for some reason, yet notice the drones don't slip at all unless they bash into each other.
The real-life Europa was mounted on 6" wide tires....pretty narrow. At times, they've got what seems to be about as much grip as my thumb. 185/13" Firestone Cavalino Ovals were offered as an option for the R/L car. Yeah, I'd get those. Whether you use slicks or not, you'll have to deal with
1> this car's poor stability
2> its quirky, nervous handling.
Oversteer and sliding are part of the game, too...might as well accept and even EMBRACE these qualities! I found that use of the 1.5 or 2-way differential helped a bit, but also added significant understeer; and personally, I'd rather balance this car's oversteer with countersteering mid-corner than have late-corner understeer, which kills speed where it's needed most. Actually, the fully modifyable differential is a really good buy...probly the best thing for this jumpy caffeine-machine.
All in all, you should just open your mind to what drivers of the past had to deal with. True sports cars are tempermental beasts, after all. At least they used to be.
1). Highly unique desgin. It's amazing to me that Lotus and Polyphony Digital even included this ancient, lo-tech mobile. The attention to detail in GT4 includes visibly moving rear suspension parts. +++
2). 151 mph from a 127 hp engine? Well you can't beat that!
3). Lightweight, fiberglass body. Minimalist design that (in real life) lacked the usual creature-comforts in order to make for a fly of a vehicle. Weight reductions aren't necessary and may even be a detriment to stability. The racing kit (GT2) is recommended and available. Cool paint schemes, too.
4). Gotta love that rattly engine sound.
5). One of the most challenging low-powered cars the game has to offer. This is really only for pros who're into challenge, though. Amateur Gran Turismo drivers who can only win with an Escudo shouldn't bother with a Europa (such cheaters would most likely just sell it, anyways).
6). Lots of power options available; both turbo & natural power.
1). The only way to get a Europa is to win the most difficult, unfair race GT2 has. Some may not be happy that it can 'only' be sold for $20,000, even though this was actually top-dollar for a pristene quality Europa when GT2 was released in 1999. The GT4 car is easier to obtain but we still have to win it.
2). Narrow tires provide sketchy grip, when the car is actually ON the road.
3). Poor stability caused by the lightweight body and mid-engine design.
4). Below-average acceleration.
5). Factory-installed gearbox has too much of a gap between 4th and 5th. Sports gearbox redlines too early. Full custom box probably needed eventually.
6). Lots of countersteer and footwork necessary to command what doesn't at first seem will be a car needing much commanding.
7). GT4 cars are further plagued by rear tires that heat up twice as fast as front--creating odd cornering dilemmas. Feels like sometimes we've been handed a Rubik's Cube and have 3 or 4 seconds to solve it.
8). Gran Turismo 2's dealer info tells us what a great handling car the Europa is. It is not! We will need a better suspension and possibly even racing slick tires (GT2) while the car's power is still weak. Don't even bother to race one of these unless you can easily obtain silver licenses consistently.
8). Long braking distances.

Tampere University Press (TUP) was established in 1994. Initially TUP also published textbooks and general non-fiction books but starting from 2019 we focus solely on original research literature. At present, TUP is a Diamond Open Access publisher.
Book proposals and manuscripts are first reviewed by the editorial board of Tampere University Press. After originality check and possible revisions, selected full manuscripts are then peer-reviewed by at least two external experts. The peer-review process is either double blind or open with open identities, depending on mutual prior agreement.
The reviewers are at least PhD level researchers or other expert parties, typically senior researchers, adjunct professors, or professors, and independent in relation to the manuscript to be reviewed. TUP editorial staff will conduct a background check.
TUP provides referees with an evaluation form and guidelines on good practices. The duty of the referee is to provide a statement on the manuscript's quality, novelty, and suitability for publication, and to recommend one of the following options: (1) manuscript is acceptable in its present form; (2) the manuscript requires minor changes; (3) the manuscript is acceptable with substantial revisions; (4) the manuscript is unacceptable and should be rejected. If substantial revisions have been required, the manuscript may be sent out for subsequent rounds of peer-review.
Based on the referees' reports TUP's editorial board assess whether the manuscript can be accepted for publication. The final publishing decision is made by the publisher/publishing manager. TUP sends the referees' feedback to the authors together with the publishing decision, usually accompanied by a list of recommended corrections. Authors are expected to send a revised version and a description of amendments within the agreed time frame.
Tampere University Press keeps an online list of referees who have given permission to publish their names. Our aim is to provide more transparency in the academic publishing process as well as to give credit for the work.

Boy, people sure get messed up as soon as they try to drag science into food debates. I sometimes get a laugh out of people posting comments about cavemen cooking.
Why? Well, if you read accounts of modern hunter-gatherers, they, like many omnivores, were opportunists. They ate a LOT of raw food, snacking as they went, especially in summer. Most of them only cooked game at rare intervals and then pigged out on it. What if modern Americans just ate meat once a week, but ate a couple of pounds or more of it at that sitting? The other thing that hunter-gatherers cook are roots, which are usually tough and hard to eat. So, they ate soup/stew once a day. I don't see any caveman of any kind passing up a patch of berries or a tree full of fruit and not pigging out. Susun Weed in the debate, claims that raw fruit that is ripe has been "cooked" by the sun, by it's own enzymes and it's not raw. ???? Hm.
She also goes into great detail about some idea that cooking gave us a bigger brain. No, not so. Cutting edge archeologists have decided that we got the bigger brain by accident. Our ancestors probably lived in the shallow waters along the coasts of Africa and ate a lot of raw shellfish. Easy to eat, good for you, and gives kids bigger brains.
Most ancient people despised muscle meat. They preferred organ meats. I'm not a vegetarian, and eating raw meat is quite the treat, but very rich. It may be important to cook the bones down into a stew, but I'm sure that our cavemen ancestors ate plenty of raw liver, raw fish, raw shellfish, raw bugs, and raw fruit.
One can certainly join either side in the enzyme debate, but trying to "prove" that cavemen ate all their food cooked and that gave them bigger brains is pretty silly.

How can UK Business Owners Benefit from the Time to Pay Arrangement During CoronaVirus?
As the UK is bracing for the worst impact of Coronavirus, a financial crisis seems to be all but inevitable.
According to the Centre for Economics and Business Research, the UK economy is set to face the deepest recession since the financial crisis of 2008. The economy is predicted to shrink to a stumbling 15% in the second quarter as the pandemic, and the consequent lockdown restrictions scourge the businesses.
The continuing spread of Covid-19 is presenting an unprecedented dilemma to many of the business markets concerning their short and long-term futures.
On the upside, Boris Johnson's government is preparing for the worst and has announced emergency measures to help businesses overcome the financial downturn and provide some relief during these uncertain times.
Among the policies revealed by Chancellor Rishi Sunak, HMRC's Time to Pay arrangement would be immensely helpful for all businesses facing distress.
What is HMRC Time To Pay agreement?
If your company is experiencing cash flow problems, then paying taxes such as VAT is indisputably a primary concern. In a usual scenario, a late payment would flag the HM Revenue & Customs and would have further consequences.
However, amidst the Corona crisis, one of the most effective measures in the 2020 Budget is to implement the Time to Pay arrangement with HMRC. A TTP arrangement allows businesses to pay back the taxes to HMRC in monthly installments. Depending on the business circumstances, the period of payments would differ.
Support for Businesses during Coronavirus
To ease the burden on affected businesses, the government is offering support for companies and self-employed individuals who might not be able to pay their tax. It is important to note that each agreement is negotiated on an individual basis, and the benefits you receive would be tailored to your liabilities and circumstances.
The HMRC's Time to Pay arrangement applies to three possible scenarios.
If you cannot pay VAT because of Coronavirus, you can postpone any VAT payments due between 20 March and 30 June 2020. You will have an extended time until 31 March 2021 to pay the VAT. There will be no interest or penalties for late payment during the deferral period.
If you cannot meet your Self Assessment tax bill, then you might be able to pay in installments if you have filed your return and owe less than £10,000.
If you cannot pay other taxes, such as a tax bill, contact the Payment Support Service. If you have already received a letter with legal action, contact the HMRC office that sent you the letter.
In case you are facing difficulties to pay the tax bill or foresee yourself struggling to be able to accommodate your future tax obligations, then you should contact HMRC at the earliest opportunity.
HMRC has set up a new dedicated COVID-19 helpline from 11 March 2020 to address your concerns. To guarantee ongoing support, HMRC has 2000 experienced call handles available to advise businesses and individuals when needed.
The possibility of a Time to Pay arrangement will depend on the ongoing viability of your business. As time has proven, even well-oiled companies can experience cash flow problems amidst a financial turmoil, and currently, one that extends beyond the constraints of finances alone.
The chances of payment outside the period of 12 months are rare, but achievable under exceptional circumstances. It is essential to affirm your arguments with proper documentation and be honest about how much you can afford to pay monthly.
The advisors are more than willing to listen if you are in genuine financial difficulty, and businesses can and should take merit from the assistance offered. Simultaneously, consider other supporting facilities and business rescue packages provided by the government. These include access to emergency loans and lower interest rates for businesses facing fiscal strains.
The historically strengthened levels of government support, as both observed in Budget 2020 and anticipated in the upcoming Spending Review and Autumn Budget, are expected to redeem the country's economy for the better in the future. Meanwhile, companies should be prepared to make difficult choices to mitigate the impact of Coronavirus on your business.
