Recovery from addiction involves the whole family. While the addict is struggling to stay sober, the family often spends time worrying about how their loved one is doing. This can lead to family members developing obsessive thought patterns. The family may worry when their loved one comes home late because they think he or she may have relapsed. When the addict has a bad day or expresses feelings that may lead him or her to start drinking or using again, the family becomes preoccupied with making things better. If you, or someone you love needs alcohol or drug rehab in Raleigh NC, please call Legacy Freedom today!
This form of obsessive thinking begins when a family discovers that their loved one has a problem with drugs or alcohol. They want to try to control the situation even though it's nearly impossible to help someone who doesn't want help. The family of an addict spends time worrying about him and picturing scenarios of bad things that can happen when someone is under the influence. They may try to threaten or punish him, especially if the addict is a teenager. The family may even try to bribe the user with things in order to make him stop.
The family of an addict has little control over what a person does when he has a problem with drugs or alcohol, but it doesn't stop them from trying to help. It often leads the family to being overwhelmed with the situation but unable to give up on it. They spend all of their time worrying about their loved one. It affects other parts of their life, like their jobs or other members of the family.
When a family is dealing with a teenager with an addiction, the young siblings usually suffer because they don't get as much attention from their parents. They often feel neglected and begin to resent the sibling who has the addiction problem.
When a husband or wife is struggling with addiction, the sober spouse has to take on all of the responsibilities when it comes to their children. The spouse with the addiction problem is usually not there – physically or emotionally. The burden of caring for the children, the household and the finances falls on the sober spouse.
When an addict decides to get help, it is important that the whole family gets involved. Addicts develop negative thinking patterns that cause them to lose trust in their loved ones even if they had previously trusted them completely. Addiction causes changes in the brain that skew their thought processes. They become so obsessed with getting their next fix or having their next drink that nothing else really matters. They become self-absorbed and sometimes even paranoid if they feel threatened by their families pleas to get help.
Having the whole family involved in addiction recovery can help both parties learn to develop more positive thinking patterns. The family can learn to let go of their obsessive thoughts about the addict's behavior. The addict can learn to open up and trust his family again. Getting help for addition should be a family affair as it will only help the person struggling with a substance abuse problem stay stronger in their recovery.
Is your family troubled because of a loved one's substance abuse or drug problem? Call Legacy Freedom Treatment of Raleigh to speak with a counselor today. Our approach to alcohol and drug rehab in Raleigh NC includes the family of our patients because we know how important it is to have a support system when you're in recovery. Family members can actively participate in private and group therapy sessions in order to learn coping and support skills. Call us today to learn more.


Fake congressman gets backstage at Obama Congressional Black Caucus event.
Secret Service agents stand watch as President Obama greets supporters.
Following recent revelations about several serious breaches of presidential security, Bloomberg News rounds out the week with yet another incident involving questionable protection of the president. A White House official tells Bloomberg a man posing as a member of Congress was able to gain access to a secure backstage area for President Obama's appearance at a Congressional Black Caucus Foundation awards dinner last weekend.
The man entered the backstage area during or just after Obama's speech at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center as members of Congress gathered there to have their pictures taken with the president, said the official, who asked for anonymity to discuss the incident, which has not previously been made public. The unidentified man said he was Representative Donald Payne Jr., a Democrat from New Jersey, the official said. One member of the White House staff determined that the man wasn't Payne, and another asked him to leave, the official said. He did so without incident and wasn't detained.
The Secret Service, already facing criticism for allowing an armed intruder inside the White House and an armed felon to ride in an elevator with the president, told Bloomberg the agency did its job screening attendees at the dinner. It remains unclear how close the bogus congressman got to the president or first lady.

BESPOKE AND INNOVATIVE BUILDING
Project: ristav CUBE, Karlsruhe area, Germany
In 2018, the Vollack Group built a custom-designed office and residential building, the "ristav CUBE," for the customer ristav GmbH using the BIM working method.
Allplan Architecture in practice
The design, planning, and execution of industrial and office buildings using a progressive working method is a core competence for the Vollack Group. The desired goal is to offer their clients tailor-made solutions with unique features using these methods. They are to support the customer and also work with a view to securing repeat work for future developments. The construction project "ristav CUBE" is a classic example of a project with customer-specific features.
Construction began in 2017 and the planned completion date is summer 2018. ristav GmbH is a medium-sized company from the Karlsruhe area, which has a plot Germanyin the newly developed Karlsruhe industrial park, Kirchfeld-Nord. They were planning the new office and residential building here and commissioned the Vollack Group to design it. The building was designed to be a hybrid structure made of timber with reinforced concrete, and in addition to office space, is also to house an underground parking garage, a residential unit, and an archive area for files. The handling of files is a large part of everyday work in the company. This is why the archive is a key area for the client. To meet their requirements, the archive was included in the design process.
For us, BIM means:
> Increased efficiency during the design process
> Increased quality
> Merging of all individual models into one central model

The first challenge was to create space for the files as well as sufficient office space. Secondly, the focus of the development process was about optimizing the working environment, by linking work processes and creating short travel distances within the building. In addition, the project's energy goals and the pre-defined working method Building Information Modeling (BIM) played a major role for Vollack. The goal was to create a highly energy-efficient office building by using only the BIM working method. Since Vollack already had extensive experience in the field of BIM and in building energy-efficient buildings, they were an ideal fit for the ambitious construction project.
The Vollack Group has been using ALLPLAN software products for many years for its design work. They use Allplan Architecture and Allplan Engineering to create three-dimensional building models. These later serve as the basis for the quantity and cost calculations. The collision check within the models was undertaken using the open BIM platform Allplan Bimplus, and the Vollack Group created tender documents using NEVARIS bidding software.
Approach and solution
The design of the "ristav Cube" uses a sustainable timber construction with solid wood walls and ceilings, combined with a reinforced concrete core as thermal storage. The building has a gross floor area of 2,660 square meters spread across four levels: Basement with underground parking, a ground floor, a first floor with office use, as well as a penthouse on the top floor. The latter has a residential unit and the surrounding roof areas have a terrace and a photovoltaic system. In addition, it is planned to place solar collectors on the roof areas of the first floor.
These systems are part of a building services concept which was developed using Allplan Add-ins AX 3000. Thanks to this method, the building is largely energy independent and achieves the energy standard KfW-55. In addition to the solar collectors and a photovoltaic system, there is an ice latent heat storage system for heating in the winter and cooling in the summer. This modern technology allows for maximum use of the regenerative energy produced in advance. In order to keep the energy consumption low, the structure is also equipped with energy-saving LED lighting.
The exterior is a traditional WDVS facade with mineral insulation. The southern exterior facade of the building design was inspired by the topic of files and takes on the form of vertical metal slats. In terms of design, these correspond to the folder backs of the files and act as permanently installed shading elements. The layout within the building was designed according to thermal and lighting aspects.
Access is via the south side and continues inside via a spacious ramp staircase. The inner access is via the open staircase, or alternatively, is accessible via an elevator. The archive and the associated storage rooms, as well as the supply core, form the center of the building over two stories. The supply core contains technical systems and utility lines, but also kitchenettes, sanitary and changing rooms, as well as storage and copy rooms. The office space and the accesses are arranged around this center. No office spaces were created on the southern side of the building in order to avoid high thermal gains and unfavorable light exposure, especially in the summer.
To be able to take such aspects into consideration in detail, the architects and engineers at Vollack use the software from ALLPLAN during the design phase, and in certain cases, even adapt it for individual needs. 3D models are created at Vollack with Allplan using their own CAD component library and are enhanced with smart data. In addition to wizards and attributes developed in-house, specially programmed quantity reports are also used. The quantities contained in the 3D model can be easily transferred to NEVARIS for tenders at the push of a button. The necessary thermal simulations are performed with AX3000 and Sefaira. The requirement for Building Information Modeling was actively addressed by Vollack Group from the start with this procedure. Separate CAD standards were defined and a cross-location core BIM team was established within the group of companies. Vollack's long-term goal is to work using the openBIM working method.
The Vollack Group has very pragmatically answered the question of whether Building Information Modeling offers design benefits. Together with the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), the company set up a study where the traditional 2D working method was compared with a CAD program such as Allplan Architecture, a table calculation program such as MS Excel, and a tender program for the 3D/BIM working method. Afterwards, the productivity increased by 50 percent compared to the traditional 2D working method. Vollack also sees a key challenge for BIM with the question: How do I convince everyone of the benefits? Because for many employees at Vollack, the transition from 2D to 3D was a big challenge at first. The company is aware of this and offers experienced professionals the opportunity to train further at their own academy and combine their long-standing expertise with the new working method.
"The goal of BIM for us is a simple increase in efficiency in the process, but of course also an increase in quality and an acceleration and improvement in efficiency."

In January 2012, the European Commission proposed a major reform of the EU legislation regarding the protection of personal data. The aim of the new proposals was to update the current Data Protection Directive (95/46/EU) passed in 1995 in order to provide a higher level of protection over EU citizens' personal data. It is also meant to consolidate and harmonise data protection laws across all EU member states. Another key objective of the proposals is to ensure that the revised law addresses the recent developments in technology to cover progressions in e-commerce, social networking, and cloud computing. In terms of compliance, the new regulation is set to be stricter than the previous law with harsher enforcement and penalties. As the draft regulation will be directly effective in member states, there will not be a need for local legislation to implement it.
Most businesses (including public sector bodies, private sector businesses with over 250 employees, and businesses that demand regular data monitoring) will be required to appoint or designate a data protection officer to ensure that data controllers and processors fulfil their duties, and monitor the implementation of policies.
Companies will have to be more transparent about what they require data for. They can only collect the minimum amount of data that they require for a specified intention.
Data subjects should have the right to 'erase' their personal data through a 'right to be forgotten'.
The activities of data processors will also be brought within the scope of the draft regulation. Previously, the Directive applied only to the data processing activities of data controllers. Furthermore, the regulation will also apply to data controllers who offer goods or services to data subjects in the EU, but who are not themselves established in the EU.
Both data processors and data controllers will be required to implement security measures to strengthen online privacy.
Data controllers will be obliged to inform the relevant national data protection authority of a data security breach within 24 hours of becoming aware of the breach.
Although the regulation cannot enforce criminal sanctions, there will be more significant consequences of breaching the draft regulation. This will include fines of up to 2% of a business' annual turnover for intentional or negligent breaches.
According to the current timescales, the draft regulation is to be implemented before the European Parliament elections in May 2014, but is not likely to apply to the UK until 2016 at the earliest. Despite this, businesses should continue to keep informed about the proposed changes to ensure they are in a position to fulfil the requirements and comply with the key provisions when the time comes.


It's not surprising the owner of Ish, a modern(-ish) Indian restaurant in Fitzroy, used to own a nightclub in his home city of Chandigarh, India. Ish's interior is dark and sultry. Red brick, a bronze-lined bar, dark timber panelling, black leather chairs and zebra-print cushions are all set off by candlelight and gold metallic lampshades. The playlists feature the energetic pop of Indian musicians.
Ish occupies two levels. The second is markedly different to the thumping downstairs dining room and bar. It's lighter, quieter and more spacious. The fit-involves custom Indian designed and made furnishings, such as striking black and white striped pews and cabinets.
Ish's menu takes dishes from all over India, shakes some of the tradition (and chilli) out, and injects foreign techniques and ingredients.
The rajma chawal is a kidney-bean curry served with rice, typical in northern India. At Ish the beans and rice are cooked like a risotto and served with poppadums.
Tandoori lamb cutlets are served with a turnip and dill mash. And sambar, a southern Indian lentil and tamarind dish, is blended with sticky rice, balled, crumbed and fried like arancini, and served with coconut and tomato relish. There's gluten-free naan, too.
There are cocktails made with Indian whiskies and ingredients such as kaffir lime. If the sweet, creamy and very pink blood orange lassi cocktail doesn't grab you, there's also Kingfisher beer.

Vettel, Rosberg, Bottas and Ericsson are your men out on track.
. I actually think he'll benefit from how much interest there is going to be in 17-year-old Verstappen alongside him.
@ankur: He does have the headline time but we don't know about fuel runs and engine modes etc. Mileage probably more important than pace at this point.
@ankur: Well, I think he suffers from his own success as Schumacher did when he was at his prime - often people said it was the car and not Schumacher winning it in the Ferrari days. Clearly Vettel is one of the elite drivers and I am excited to see him driving at Ferrari, a car which won't be the best out there where he can showcase his talents in the way Alonso had to while he was at Maranello.
Just joined in from Canada. Wow Rosberg 117 laps while the others show well under 50. Are they the only one who almost has a race distance?
@Bart: Hello Bart. Yes, it's very impressive, perhaps the main talking point from everything that's happened on track so far. Times are not a great indicator of anything at this time, I think Mercedes has almost completely focused on longer runs today.
It's scary to think that Mercedes are STILL Matching Bottas lap times after Rosberg has done all they laps! That's worrying for other times and Astonishing from Mercedes that they can match Williams lap times after doing over 100 laps. Crazy from Mercedes. Amazing Long run pace.
@MichaelDuncan: I think Rosberg's headline time was set on a shorter run, before he came back out on one of the long runs.
122 laps for Rosberg now.
@NanduSreevalsan: A race distance at Jerez is 67 laps and he's now done 136. A bit worrying for the rest of the teams on day one.
@aditya: Not very much! They do often follow the data and talk to the engineers, but they also talk to the media and complete other mundane tasks. Jenson Button was in the garage to watch Fernando Alonso complete his first lap this morning and we had a pleasant chat with Max Verstappen in the morning.
fritz, I am a Ferrari fan but not tired of Mercedes but tired of teams not doing the catching up. They are not holding anyone back.
@Matt: It looks that way at the moment. But the other teams will start to show their true pace as pre-season testing continues in Barcelona.
We've got another lull in the track action at the moment. All seven of the cars we have here today are in the pits.
That tweet from McLaren was posted about an hour ago. Still no sound from the McLaren garage.
Ericsson has broken the silence as he heads out for his 44th lap of today.
@Laurence Teams will start to show their true pace? If anything maybe Mercedes still has the most in the bag cause all the other teams have been doing flying laps where Mercedes only done like 8 flying laps and rest long runs. So it looks like Mercedes know they still have a lot in the bag...probably the most still in the bag.
@MichaelDuncan: I've no doubt Mercedes has a lot left to extract from the car. But just because a car does a short run does not mean it was pushing (or necessarily on low fuel). The main thing to take from today is that Mercedes was best prepared for this test and have a very reliable car straight away. Single lap times are not so important today for any of the teams.
@LaurenceEdmondson Any information about Ferrari? How many laps so far?
@FerrariFan: I've just updated the times and lap counts at the top of the page. Vettel has 33 so far today and is in the garage.
@Laurence Yeah. I think it actually looks Mercedes have probably still have a 1.5 gap/advantage on long runs...or maybe even more. Don't know what you think though but seeing Mercedes consistent times after all them laps looks like their long run pace is even better than last seasons long run pace.
@MichaelDuncan: You can't really compare long-run pace at this time because the other cars haven't done any long runs.
how many hours of testing left ?
@Lachuchelsea: The session ends at 17:00 here in Spain. So that's in one hour and ten minutes.
Vettel just went for a brief one-lap run. He now returns to the pits and drives to the exit for a practice start.
And back out he goes. Carlos Sainz is also on track at the moment in the Toro Rosso.
Vettel crosses the line this time to start a lap. Let's see if he completes it this time.
Vettel sets a new fastest lap with a 1:22.690. That's 0.460 faster than the rest at this stage.
@vettel: Yes, Lotus is due to arrive later today, so they will be back in the paddock tomorrow.
And now we have a red flag. I'm assuming that's for Sainz as Vettel just zoomed past our media centre.
So that red flag comes out more or less exactly as we enter the final hour of the session.
I think it's a psychological advantage that Ferrari and Vettel are aiming for this early in the testing schedule. They have done the last amount of laps till the time I type this (barring the issue-stricken Alonso), but they seem to be keen on getting the lap-timing topping trophy won for day 1. It would help add some confidence after a poor previous season and confidence, as in any sport, always goes on to eke out better form all.


One person taking care of a diabetic husband who seems to sleep all day long with very high levels. You will take ReliOn based on the dose given to you by your doctor and your pharmacist.
BG before bed is It worked like a charm: Even if everything stated were true, there is not sufficient supporting science to treat this as casually as has been. The system requires a prescription. What is Lantus dose chart. The only other diabetic med I take is Metformin.
Glucagon plays an active role in allowing the body to regulate the utilisation of glucose and fats. The method that I described is for Type II diabetics only. I think Lilly, Novo and Sanofi are doing themselves a disservice working alone.
In other words, first use 1, then 1. Effect of age, race, and gender on the pharmacokinetics of Lantus has not been evaluated. You may still need a prescription to switch from name brand insulin.
The critical requirement of human metabolism is to ensure that there is a high enough level of glucose to power the brain. The secondary outcomes—myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, leg amputation, and microvascular complications—were also unaffected by treatment with metformin.
Hirsch reviewed the cost of insulin from when Drs. Obviously, Eli Lilly was backed into a corner. Mainly by giving drugs that force beta-cells to produce more insulin, or by adding in drugs that work with insulin to lower blood sugar levels, or by injecting additional insulin. Hope the 12 gets me through the night ok.
Thick or thin skin at injection site 1,2 How do they work for the treatment of diabetes? Remember in my last post I told you to test 60 to 90 minutes after each meal?
The spike in insulin pricing was spurred by the Pharmacy Benefits Managers. You may use R only if you have nothing else available.
Glad to see this with the sugar sub replacing the honey. The pump is by far the best of diabetic control, if it is set up correctly.
You then eat grams of net carbs and dose 18U. ReliOn insulins may be taken with other oral diabetes medications and injectables. Irl HirschMD, is the professor of medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine, also treats patients with diabetes, and has type 1 diabetes himself.
You are only 13 so you must consider your body size and metabolism. Given that ReliOn insulins are so much cheaper, this is something to consider. Now you will do correcting dosages here. Alcohol, beta-blockers, clonidine, and lithium salts.
As mentioned before, Lantus is for baseline blood sugar control as your liver makes available a steady stream of sugar. Diabetes is the one disease where our BG levels are ultimately up to us.
I currently am taking 70 units of Lantus at bedtime and before meals I take Novalog based on what my blood sugar is on a chart written by my doctor. High blood sugar makes you feel less energetic. My articles and columns have appeared in many of the major diabetes magazines and websites.
In the development of the first insulin analog, lisproled to another increase in the cost of insulin. Thus far, I must admit, I have kept the discussion relatively conventional.
These are qualities that will get you a long life.Today, most prescriptions cover the most up-to-date types of insulin—basal insulins such as Lantus and Levemir, as well as rapid-acting insulins like Novolog, Humalog, and Apidra. But when you buy insulin over the counter, these brand-name insulins are not available.
(In a relatedly dickish move, United Healthcare decided to stop covering all insulin pumps except the Medtronic pump, which is *really* going to destroy some people's agronumericus.com on that in another article.) Look, I see biosimilars as treatment options, and I hope I will always be able to get my hands on the best drugs & treatments that will help me, as an individual, control my diabetes.
HUMALOG MIX75/25 (insulin lispro protamine and insulin lispro injectable suspension), for subcutaneous use. DESCRIPTION. HUMALOG Mix75/25 (insulin lispro protamine and insulin lispro injectable suspension) is a mixture of 75% insulin lispro protamine, an intermediate-acting human insulin analog, and 25% insulin lispro, a rapid-acting human insulin analog.

Before having our kids, I was devoted to our backyard birds. I made sure they were always well fed and even ordered no sprout food in bulk online (to avoid weeds). Then, life happened and we had four babies at one time. I had no time for the birds as I was busy feeding my own flock. When our babies became toddlers, there was still no time or opportunity to feed the birds. Now, that they are preschool age and have an interest in birds, the wild birds are being welcomed back into our yard. We made finch feeders which was a fun engineering project for the kids using inexpensive and re-purposed supplies.
Two pairs of girls tights or two pairs of dollar store nylons/tights. We used tights that Capri used to wear in dance class at age 3.
Open up the 7 hook rack and duct tape the center of it so that it is no longer movable. Have your children put the mesh laundry bags through the two openings so that there is one circle on either side of the feeder with the zipper in the middle (as shown below).
Cut the pipe cleaners or wire into pieces and use them to secure the mesh bags to the feeder using the holes in the rack (like the ones pictured above nearest to Xayden's hands).
Next, cut the legs off of the two pairs of tights and have the children fill each one with nyjer seed. They can scoop it out and pour it in or pour it through the large funnel. If you don't have a scoop or funnel, they can simply put it in with their hands. Have the children take turns holding the tights open and filling them with the nyjer seed. Once each one is filled, loosely knot the tops so they won't spill but can be reused. Then, have the children poke lots of tiny holes in the filled tights using the sharp end of the scissors. This needs to be supervised (depending on the age and skills of the child for safety reasons).
Unzip the zipper in the center of each mesh bag and place one filled tight 'bag' on each side of the zipper (two per mesh bag). Hang the feeder on a hook using the top of the feeder itself over the hook or using strong wire. We tried to use a pipe cleaner at first, but it was not strong enough to hold in the wind with the weight of the feeder. It held much better simply hooked from the top of the rack itself.
Cut off one leg of the tights leaving the top part of the tights intact. Have your child place the yogurt cup in the foot of the tights open side down. use the scissors (adult task) to poke a large hole through the yogurt cup on both sides so that you can insert the nut cracker. Insert the open nut cracker through the holes in the yogurt cup facing the direction where it cannot collapse when the birds stand on it. The center of the nutcracker is larger than the outside which should prevent the nutcracker from coming out of the yogurt cup. If the holes you cut are too large and it is at risk of coming out, you can always reinforce it with duct tape. Have your children fill the feeder as described in the directions for feeder #1 above and poke holes for the birds with scissors.
Grab the part of the tights not filled with seeds at the top and turn it through the hole to make a loop as shown in the picture. This allows you to refill the feeder as it is not a knot. Hand the feeder up and enjoy watching the finches indulge. Note: This photo was taken before the holes were poked through. Your feeder will have tiny holes poked all through the feeder to make it easier for the birds to access the seeds.

What a creative idea to use old tights! The finches are going to love it!
My little guy just mentioned he wanted to make a bird feeder. I love this! He would have so much fun putting this together (with help of course).
These are so creative! I would have never thought to use things like the laundry bags or a hook rack — so clever. Thanks for sharing!
omg what a cute and fun idea!!!!! My daughter would love something like this!
This is such a cool idea! My boys love watching birds come by the house, so we're definitely going to make one of these. Thank you for the instructions.


One of my friends told me about paid online surveys as another way for earning a few extra bucks each month. So I did some research on the web to find out how this is working and understand more about it. I finally ended up on Global Test Market's website, one of the major online surveys companies, and here's how it works.
If you're interested, you can sign up for free at Globaltestmarket.com and you will then start receiving online paid surveys. Whenever you complete online surveys, you will earn rewards (MarketPoints) that can then be redeemed for cash.
This certainly looks like a great opportunity to make extra money from the comfort of your home every month, but I don't think that you should expect to make crazy money out of this. When consulting different forums about the topic, I also found out that depending on your profile (age, gender, profession, etc.) you might end up with a lot less surveys to fill in than what you thought. Having said that, it could certainly be a good idea to give it a try for at least a month and see how well it converts for you. After that, who isn't looking for more income?


"Policing and Health in Europe": Even minor forms of contact with the criminal justice system—such as being stopped by police—may be implicated in poor health. Police use of force can increase the risk of physical injury, whereas interactions accompanied by abusive rhetoric or threats can lead to psychological and emotional harm. Police contact may also have no health consequences for individuals or even be linked to good health because of an increased sense of public safety and confidence in law enforcement. Using data from 26 countries that participated in the 2010 European Social Survey, this study is the first to explore whether contact with law enforcement is related to health and wellbeing in Europe. Across all outcomes—self-rated health, functional limitations, happiness, loneliness, and emotional wellbeing—having been approached, stopped or contacted by police was associated with worse health and wellbeing, especially when police treatment was perceived as unsatisfactory. These findings are discussed in terms of their implications for social inequalities more broadly.

Tumbili () is a steel roller coaster at Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia, United States. Announced in August 2021, the 4D Free Spin model is manufactured by S&S – Sansei Technologies and opened on March 12, 2022. It is located within Jungle X-Pedition, a newly-themed section of the park formerly known as Safari Village. The ride takes its name from the Swahili word for "monkey."

History
In January 2020, Kings Dominion officials announced the removal of The Crypt, a Top Spin ride from HUSS Park Attractions that opened as Tomb Raider: Firefall in 2005. According to Theme Park Tourist, an online amusement park news source, a rumor began circulating in April 2020 that a compact coaster would be replacing The Crypt, and pieces of track were spotted on site by guests in December 2020.

On August 12, 2021, Kings Dominion held an event for media and park guests, officially revealing plans to transform the park's Safari Village section of the park into Jungle X-Pedition for the 2022 season. The area was themed as an archeological research facility, featuring similarly-themed restaurants and retail shops. The centerpiece attraction was announced as a new roller coaster called Tumbili, the expected 4D Free Spin model from S&S – Sansei Technologies. Vice President and General Manager Bridgette Bywater stated, "Riders will want to ride Tumbili again and again because, depending on the weight, position and rider interaction, it provides a different ride experience every time."

The first pieces of track were erected in December 2021, and the final piece was installed on January 19, 2022. Testing of the coaster began in early March. Tumbili officially opened on March 12, 2022, although inclement weather and temperatures only allowed the coaster to dispatch two trains with riders before the park closed early for the day.

Characteristics
Tumbili peaks at a height of  implementing a 90-degree vertical lift hill. Like other FreeSpins, each ride vehicle seats a total of eight riders in two rows, and each row rotates independently of the other, controlled and induced by magnetic technology. Its  track layout is stacked in three layers over a narrow footprint, which sends riders through two beyond-vertical drops known as "raven drops". Tumbili reaches a maximum speed of  and lasts about 55 seconds.

When you're looking for further instruction on writing, you can take college classes, but that gets expensive and they're held at specific hours that may be inconvenient. You can also learn a lot by going to a conference that's put on by professional organizations like the Romance Writers of America, The Mystery Writers of America, or Novelists, Inc. In Connecticut, every September there is a convention called Fiction Fest. It's a three-day intensive weekend that features New York Times published authors, editors from major publishing houses, and literary agents. You can find these conferences all over the United States. There's even one in Hawaii. However, as exciting and informative those workshops are, they only usually last anywhere from a day to a full weekend.
There are times when you want and need a longer course. You'll either need detailed feedback on your writing, or help in creating and editing stories. Doing assignments and having an instructor available to give you personal and specific attention is invaluable. That's difficult to do in a conference setting in such a short time. Online writing courses, however, are usually longer and provide a one-to-one experience with an instructor. They are a great choice when you can't get away to a larger conference, or if there aren't any local opportunities. There are also a wide amount of choices online, so you can choose the course that you most need in your writing journey right now. The important part is to find the course that will help your writing get to the next level.
Are you thinking about writing a novel? Have you already written one and need to know how to edit it? Are you ready to find a publisher or an agent? Or have you published a book and want to know how to market it? There are workshops out there that will specialize in what you're looking to do.
The first thing you should do once you narrow down your choices is to research who is putting on the workshop. Anyone on the internet can claim to be an expert or make claims that by taking their course you will be a bestselling author. Caveat emptor! A quick Google search will tell you how legitimate the course and the instructor are. For example, if you look up The Institute for Children's Literature, you will see right away that there is a professional website, detailed information, a contact section, and a lot of information that you can read through to make your decision on which course works best for you. You'll also notice that they've been doing this since 1969, and the sister school, The Institute for Writers (formerly Long Ridge Writers Group), has been around since 1989, so that's a proven track record you can trust.
The next thing that's important is to decide how much time you can devote to the course. Some courses allow you to go at your own speed. Others have a set beginning and ending time, and if you don't access your course material in time, you lose it. You don't want to rush your way through a course—or worse—give up in the middle because life has gotten in the way. The best courses are open ended with unlimited access to the material.
Another thing to consider is the level of technology that is required for the workshop. If you aren't comfortable downloading software and using a video camera and microphone, you don't want a course that requires that. There are some courses that have you log in and attend the class in a virtual classroom where you can see your instructor and the other members of your class on your computer screen. You interact with them as if you were in an actual classroom.
On the other hand, you might enroll in a school that will send you the course material either virtually or through the mail and then you submit assignments to your instructor via email, and there's very little interaction with other students. There are also Yahoo groups, Facebook groups, and LinkedIn groups where you learn through online posts. Finding out what your comfort zone is regarding technology will help you decide which course is right for you.
Once you decide on a writing course, especially if it's an online one, you'll want to make sure that you back up all your files. There's nothing worse than being about to turn in an assignment and having your computer crash, or accidentally deleting a file. The new "my dog ate my homework" is "my file got corrupted." So, save early and save often.
If one-on-one instruction with personalized critiques on your work sounds like the type of writing course that would work for you, click here to get started.

SPECIAL REPORT: Forest rangers risk lives for a pittance
05 Aug 2018 12:42	#5016 by Robby L
SPECIAL REPORT: Forest rangers risk lives for a pittance was created by Robby L
I found this article pretty disturbing as I never realised how bad things were for the front line staff who risk their lives to protect our forests.
Park defenders deserve better pay and welfare benefits for policing country's resources, say experts
50-year-old Sutheerat Butpetch, a long-time forest ranger of Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuary, would not have been standing in front of his colleagues and forestry executives to receive applause this week, if a bullet fired by an illegal logger last year had pierced his heart.
During an attempt to arrest foreign illegal loggers near Pang Sak forest protection unit of Mae Wong National Park, Sutheerat was shot in his left shoulder, but still considered himself fortunate as the bullet did not pierce through but stopped short just under his flesh.
At the World Rangers Day event, Sutheerat along with 13 other forest rangers came to collect honourable certificates to mark their bravery and dedication. However, 10 of their colleagues were honoured posthumously as they lost their lives in the line of duty over the past year, leaving family members or bosses to collect the recognition and certificates on their behalf.
"If there was any support that I wished to see more of, it would be some job security that many of us still lack. Last, but not least, is the support for our families so that we do not have to be worried about them if we suddenly leave them one day," said Sutheerat, who has served Huai Kha Khaeng, the World Heritage site, for 26 years and is now a senior patrol ranger against forest crimes.
Risky job
Sutheerat is among nearly 20,000 forest rangers (Pitak Pa) from three departments – the National Parks, the Royal Forestry, and the Marine and Coastal Resources – under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE), whose job levels are ranked among the lowest.
They have less job security and state welfare than other government officials' at the same departments, despite their risky job protecting forests, which is increasingly challenged by various threats, including poaching and illegal logging gangs equipped with heavy weapons.
As recorded by the DNP, over the past four years, 42 rangers have died_several from clashes with poachers, 13 were severely wounded, and 36 have been injured while carrying out duties.
Such low work status is a result of big changes in the country's bureaucratic structure in the early 2000s, when permanent government official positions were capped, and contract based positions were introduced, following the preference of privatisation by the Thaksin government.
The measures have continued until now, resulting in a number of government workers, including forest rangers, seeing their work status considered merely temporary, contract based.
Their temporary work status leaves them with little or no job security, state benefits, or welfare coverage, and that has posed diffficulty for forest rangers to take care of themselves and their families.
Several sectors have been attempting to provide them support, especially on welfare issues, but still, the measures are seen as inconsistent.
In his early career, Sutheerat was just a yearly contract-based forest officer (Panak-ngan Jang Mao), but he was later able to become a four-year contract-based forest officer (Panak-ngan Ratchakarn).
At present, the two positions receive slightly different state benefits and welfare. For a four-year contract, forest officers like Sutheerat receive more than Bt10,000 salary per month. Given their work status, they are able to access marginal social security coverage for medical treatments, like other workers in the country.
However, a number of Sutheerat's colleagues who are still yearly contract-based officers (the DNP gives the number at around 8,400, while the RFD gives the number at around 1,200) would get a salary of Bt7,500 to Bt9,000 per month. And for medical treatments, they do not have social security coverage but must rely on the same Bt30 public health care card, as ordinary citizens.
Realising that their officers are at risk while on duty and in need of welfare coverage, the DNP and the RFD
have been working to improve welfare for forest rangers. While the DNP has put a welfare fund in place to help support its rangers, the RFD has introduced a new regulation to ensure welfare is set for its rangers as well.
Over the years, other organisations including the notable Seub Nakhasathien Foundation, set up following the death of Huai Kha Khaeng chief, Seub Nakhasathien in 1990, and Pitak Khao Yai Foundation have been providing welfare support to the rangers.
The MONRE has also recently set up a new forest ranger welfare foundation to provide a short-cut to welfare for rangers.
Most of them, however, are still considered as not yet being state bound, but rather voluntary driven, posing inconsistency and unsustainability to their provisions of welfare, some forest experts said.
Khwanchai Duangsathaporn, a member of the natural resources and environment reform committee, said that the Pitak Pa have both job security issues and welfare issues needing to be addressed.
While they have similar duties in protecting the forest, these forest rangers have different contracts, resulting in different work statuses, state benefits and welfare.
Khwanchai said that it's the government's policy to cap its workforce, so job security improvement is an uphill task. Welfare, on the other hand, would be easier to improve, Khwanchai said.
Most of the welfare schemes provided, however, are not yet state bound, but rather voluntary, Khwanchai said, so, there is a need to make it compulsory.
The reform committee, he said, has been working to address the welfare issue for these people, and it has proposed in the reform plan to amend the National Parks Act as well as related laws to allow the departments involved to use income collected from their parks to support their rangers' welfare.
The new welfare system, via legal mechanisms or policies, must be developed and put in place, to offer welfare to these people to a degree no less than other government officials, Khwanchai added.
"Welfare is not something to ask for, but should be institutionalised by law or policies. These people are at the frontline of forest battles, and actually talking only about the welfare provided is not enough. We need to talk about their established authority being brought in line with wrongdoers' capacities, as well as protection to ensure their safety," said Khwanchai.
On the fourth floor of the DNP's forest protection and suppression bureau, Sompoch Maneerat, a director of the agency's administration system development group, is at a crossroad.
As a former chief of Huai Kha Khaeng himself, he realised how important job security is to his rangers. But as the job positions and the budget remain capped, it is not an easy decision to upgrade the forest officers' positions from a low level to more permanent ones.
If the budget remained the same, upgrading positions for some could mean others suffer a loss as their salaries and benefits would be reduced to pay for those who received the upgrade.
In the view of Sompoch, who is assigned to restructure the DNP and now drafting the plan, increasing or upgrading the workforce on its own would never be able to compete with the needs for protection of the forests, which have been increasingly challenged by various threats.
The whole work process of the department needs to be restructured so that it could respond to the present challenges – and that would help to also resolve the workforce problems the department faces.
As Sompoch sees it, the department, which is responsible for overseeing about 70 million rai (11 million hectares) in protected forests throughout the country, has a structure based on functions, while the reality is that its work is area-based. Some functions, Sompoch said, would not require work year-round and the staff for them could be shifted to help with other tasks that need additional workers.
With a new area-based structure, those in the central offices would primarily work as regulators and technical supporters, who would work through joint plans. The plans would be shared with those responsible for a geographic area, from directors of the regional protected area offices, to chiefs of national parks and wildlife sanctuaries, which are the work areas of the department.
There, functions such as forest restoration would be placed under the directive of the area chiefs, rather than reporting to the central offices as they have done.
Sompoch called this as a major shift in the way the department carries out its work.
"It's the philosophy in forest protection that we should rather work through an area-based approach. With this, we would be able to respond to the needs of our forests – to be protected in a timely manner as well as our men – who need swift support and decisions from the areas.
"As many of our men as possible should be in the forests, supporting one another in the areas, rather than working at the table separately somewhere in the central offices like we do nowadays," said Sompoch.
His hope is that more constructive welfare would follow from a work reorganisation plan that he sees as being far better than the past.

Replied by Paul T on topic SPECIAL REPORT: Forest rangers risk lives for a pittance
Thats very interesting Robby. Thanks for that.
Myself, I myself worked in a pseudo government organization for 25 years - over that period it constantly reformed to try and "do more with the same" and then "do more with the less" - IMHO we never succeeded in having a fulfilled workforce after those reforms started and we saw wage and benefit erosion year on year. I think task based operations are a good thing (i.e. having "mobile" staff with a certain localized structure) but they don't work if you affect the staff's lives - i.e. telling them to relocate geographically for 1 month or more only makes them unhappy and increases one's costs.
I think they should assess their needs to complete their tasks correctly and then up the price of entry to all parks as necessary. No more 20 and 40 baht.

Last night marked a pivotal shift in seasons... Vermont's first amphibians have awaken from their winter slumber. They were the first of many more that are yet to emerge from hibernation and move through field and forest towards their breeding pools.
Spring migrations of amphibians are triggered by the first warm, rainy nights of the year. Each March and April, volunteers of the North Branch Nature Center's Amphibian Monitoring Program are ready to greet those amphibians as they monitor their populations and ensure their safety as they move across roadways. To learn more about amphibian migration and how you can help, join one of the FREE training sessions coming up this spring, the first of which is TONIGHT!
For the past eight years, on the first warm, rainy nights of spring, the NBNC has coordinated teams of volunteers to assist amphibians on their annual migration to breeding pools. All too often their journey is interrupted by roads, which can be devastating to local populations. Volunteers are trained to on how to monitor frogs, toads and salamanders at these sites and save them from becoming road kill. You can get involved by attending a training session for amphibian monitoring. No registration necessary. All programs are free.
Here are some other reports of amphibian activity last night, listed by location. Thanks to Jim Andrews for collating these observations!
Salisbury - 45 Blue-spotted Salamander Group, 2 Four-toed Salamanders, 1 Spotted Salamander, 12 Wood Frogs, and 3 Spring Peepers.
Vergennes/Monkton area - 2 Blue-spotted hybrids, 3 Spotted Salamanders, 5 Spring Peepers, and 3 Wood Frogs.
Brandon - 10 Wood Frogs (all male), 7 Spring Peepers, and 1 Blue-spotted hybrid alive, and 7 dead Wood Frogs and one dead Blue-spotted hybrid.

Q: passing request in django template tag I tried to access the request in my custom template tag function. But it is not working.
views.py
def candidate(request):
   .......
   .......
   return render(request, template, context)

templatetags
@register.simple_tag(takes_context=True)
def make_url(context, doc_url):
    request = context["request"]
    protocol = "https://" if request.is_secure() else "http://"
    host = request.get_host()
    new_url = "%s%s%s" %(protocol, host, doc_url)
    return new_url

template.html
<iframe src="{{  candidate.resume_file.url | make_url }}" frameborder="0"></iframe>

A: Django filters aren't given any special access to the context from which they are called, they're just plain old functions.
You'll need to pass in anything you want to use within the function.
