Many car companies use the products of this company. And though car sales have nearly peaked, I believe this company will profit this year from continued car sales due to lowering oil prices and consumer demand. This tock will go up.
Company is cheap right. It shows promise in its financial statements. however, Insider ownership has greatly declined this year which does worry me. I think though, it will prosper and change direction in price soon. IT is still a very risky stock.
Im a firm believer in transportation. Kirby is like all the companies I pick in good financial standing and is greatly undervalued right now. I expect an upward slope soon in its stock price.
I myself am in engineering and feel that engineering projects will begin to emerge soon in emerging markets. Fluor is an international compan and has access to all of these new markets and developing countries, it is undervalued and in good financial standing so I feel it is a good investment, definately for the long term as well as the short term.
I like Canada. This Bank appears in good standing and undervalued. I think CAnada will do well in the near future so I'd like to give them a chance.
I like Canada. This bank appears very stable. IT has good financials and appears undervalued at the moment. Its P/E is moderate so I feel its at a good price right now and definately due for a price rise in the near future.
Very Good financials and a strong business. I see people wearing the companies products frequently and according to calculations its very undervalued and should soon go up in price after an all time low for the stock.
Chose the top performing undervalued stocks in the S&P 500 to maintain the same growth as it while supplementing with fast growth companies to try and surpass it.
Although tech companies tend to be overrated, the CEO of softbank is an aggressive investor and has a vision for his company that almost ensures lasting growth and prosperity. The stock appears to be at fair vlue and will grow from its investments as well from its earnings.
Walmart will always be a strong stock despite it reducing its stores across the nation. It is a titan of its industry and will always perform even in the most bearish of markets.
alliance is currently in good financia lstanding and looks to have solid growth over the next few years. Its P/E is moderate and may still grow or stay at the same ratio as earnings continue to grow.

Oladeji Daniel Olatunji (London, 1996. december 9. –), ismertebb nevén Deji (korábban: ComedyShortsGamer) brit youtuber és ökölvívó, aki vlogjaival, FIFA-, és rövid videóival lett ismert. KSI brit youtuber és zenész testvére. Összesen 11.7 millió feliratkozóval rendelkezik.

2021 óta ökölvívó pályafutására koncentrált, első profi győzelmét Fousey amerikai youtuber ellen szerezte meg, miután amatőrként sorozatban háromszor is kikapott. 2022 novemberében megmérkőzik Floyd Mayweatherrel.

Youtuber karrierje
Deji karrierjének elején sok különböző fajta videót tölt fel többek között és testvéréhez hasonlóan FIFA videóival lett ismert. Ezek mellett volgokat is készít. 2014 előtt nagyon sokat szerepelt KSI videóiban, de mikor testvére elkötözött, hogy a Sidemen csoporttal készítsen videókat, ez elkezdett egyre ritkább lenni.

Napjainkban tartalma, amit gyárt sokkal összevisszább, készít reakcióvideókat is. Korábban készített videóklipeket és prankeket is. Főként barátnőjével gyárt már tartalmat, bár szülei és bátyja is megjelennek esetenként videóiban.

Második csatornáján, a Deji 2ndön főként gaming videókat gyárt.

Miután kikapott Vinnie Hackertől első profi ökölvívó mérkőzésén, szünetet tartott a platformon, hogy edzésre tudjon koncentrálni.

2022. november 13-án megmérkőzött Floyd Mayweatherrel egy nem pontozott mérkőzésen, ahol viszonylag jól teljesített, de végül a hatodik menetben véget vetettek a mérkőzésnek.

Not once, but on multiple occasions today Redskins fans called in to the LaVar & Dukes show to proclaim Tim Hightower as a "faster John Riggins". One caller went so far as to say Hightower was better than Riggins. Some Redskins fans never cease to amaze me…they're ready to put a guy in the Ring of Honor after 10 carries and 44 yards, in a preseason game. I can understand why Chad Dukes couldn't take listening to that nonsense any longer.
I'll admit that I'm pretty excited about Hightower's potential in this offense as well. He seems to be a great fit and he's blessed with a nice combination of power and speed. I'm also educated enough to realize that we traded a late round pick and a part-time 35 yr old defensive end for him. The Cardinals were going to cut Hightower, that's a fact. Hightower was drafted in the 5th round, that's a fact. Hightower has a fumbling problem, that's a fact. Can we let this guy get a few regular season games under his belt before we start comparing him to a Hall of Famer who's the franchise's greatest running back of all-time?
For the record, it's a myth that John Riggins didn't have speed. Riggins was a 2-time Kansas State champion in the 100 yard dash, setting a state record with a time of 9.7 seconds. In comparison, Hightower had a personal best time of 4.59 seconds in the 40 yd dash at his combine. I guess folks remember Riggo as a "3 yards and a cloud of dust" type runner…but if Riggo broke one to the outside he was hard to catch.
BTW, when you search for Tim Hightower in google search the first keyword to pop up is fumble. He's had 10 fumbles in the past 2 seasons. The Redskins and Hightower may be downplaying those fumbles but I'm telling you right now, it's a problem.
He'll always be my favorite, always.
I've been a Redskins fan my whole life but the truth of the matter is I had no choice, I was born and raised to be this way. Most of it comes from my grandmother, the great Margaret Pearson or Nanny as I affectionately called her. Nanny had a bar in Herndon back in the day and lots of former Redskins utilized Margaret's Inn as their watering hole. One of the players that frequented Margaret's Inn was John Riggins. Riggo is/was my favorite player of all-time and I always enjoyed listening to Nanny tell Riggo stories. Riggo actually came to visit my grandmother in the last few days before she retired…and in classic Riggo fashion asked for a 6-pack to go.

Denmark is one of the best places in the world to do business! This Nordic country is a small and open economy, which is integrated in the European Union and has a very large foreign trade and investment portfolio. International organizations and professionals have consistently rated Denmark as one of the world's best places to conduct business. Most recently, Denmark took first place on Forbes Magazine's annual list of Best Countries for Business — for the third year straight. Moreover, the Economist Intelligence Unit nominated Denmark as having the world's best economic climate for foreign investors in 2008. Thus, Danish businesses are very strong and operate very internationally — both from their home base in Denmark and from the increasingly important production sites around the world.
According to Forbes Magazine and the World Bank, Denmark is one of the easiest places in the world to do business. High flexibility and a safe business environment characterize Denmark, where establishing a business can be done in a matter of hours and at very low costs.
Denmark provides easy access to the entire European Union with more than 100 million of the wealthiest consumers in the world. Its geographical location makes Denmark an excellent starting point for regional marketing and distribution.
Bribery and corruption is practically unknown in Denmark and as such Denmark has earned top rankings in the international transparency index for years. The extremely low level of corruption makes Denmark an attractive location for business activities.
Denmark has one of the most flexible labor markets in the world. The simultaneous presence of both flexibility and security, also known under the term 'flexicurity', is a labor market model that allows companies to adjust the number of workers according to market demands, while at the same time ensuring that employees are quickly retrained and rarely remain unemployed for long. The Danish workforce is highly qualified and well-educated and is one of the most cost-effective workforces in Europe.
Denmark has a highly skilled and very well-educated population with excellent foreign language skills (English proficiency is in the world's top three). A high proportion of the population has a university degree. Moreover, self-motivation, company loyalty, creativity, and efficiency are integral parts of the Danish business culture.
The Danish transport infrastructure is outstanding, even by European standards, with an extensive rail and road network, ten seaports with free port and trade zone facilities, and four international airports. Denmark offers the best infrastructure for a regional headquarter.
Denmark offers leading-edge competencies within ICT, cleantech and life sciences. Denmark is without a doubt one of the world's leading cleantech centers comprising more than 1100 cleantech companies. World-class R&D facilities combined with an innovative talent pool make Denmark an internationally competitive ICT and life sciences cluster.

Тавфик Абу аль-Худа или Тауфик Абу аль-Худа (; , Акко, Османская империя — 1 июля 1956, Амман, Иордания) — иорданский государственный деятель, премьер-министр Трансиордании (1938—1944) и Иордании (1947—1950, 1951—1953) и (1954—1955).

Биография
Имел палестинское происхождение. Окончил юридический факультет школы «Галатасарай» в Стамбуле. Был женат на сестре османского банкира.

В 1915 г. поступил на военную службу в качестве офицера запаса, служил бухгалтером на иракском и иранском фронте, а также в Алеппо, пока в октябре 1918 года османские войска не отступили из Сирии.

В 1919—1922 гг. — сотрудник юридической школы в Дамаске во время действия французского мандата. В 1929 г. был назначен директором департамента древних ценностей (Department of Antiquities). Затем занимал должности главы управления прокьюремента и директора управления регистрации земли Трансиордании. В 1928 г. становится членом Исполнительного совета, а в 1929 г. был назначен генеральным секретарем правительства.

Неоднократно занимал пост премьер-министра Трансиордании, а затем Иордании (1938—1944, 1947—1950, 1951—1953) и (1954—1955). В послевоенное время считался политиком близким к Великобритании.

Во время его последнего срока в качестве премьер-министра он пытался укрепить власть короля Хусейна путем проведения парламентских выборов, которые многие обвиняли его в их фальсификации. Также на период его премьерства пришлась арабо-израильская война (1947—1949), во время которой Трансиордания присоединила Западный берег и лишение полномочий короля Талала.

С 1947 по 1951 г. занимал должность президента Сената Иордании.

Покончил с собой (повесился в ванной своего дома).

I took a few minutes last night to myself so that I could create a little. I actually had an image that I spent FOREVER coloring the other night that I wanted to use but I lost it. I'm telling you, I would lose my head if it weren't attached.
I threw together a really quick card for yesterday's Clean and Simple challenge on SCS. I voluntarily made a one layer card! Isn't that crazy? This card uses Unity's Love is in the Air kit. I just stamped it directly on the card base and colored it with my Bic Mark Its. I'm still getting used to the colors so this isn't exactly what I envisioned in my head but I still like it.
Ashley this is so cute. I just love CAS card, but I have trouble making them. Crazy isn't it?

Q: XNA SpriteBatch causing problems with BasicEffect I'm using XNA to visualize some data, and I'm trying to use billboards for data, and spritebatch for HUD text drawing.
For the billboards, I'm using the following example, which works great:
http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/sample/3d_audio
In that example, there is a cat and dog sprite, where the cat passes in front of or behind the dog, depending on their positions and the camera position as you'd expect. It doesn't matter what order Cat.Draw and Dog.Draw are called in. These guys are drawn from a BasicEffect.
However if I add a class that inherits DrawableGameComponent and uses a SpriteBatch, the BasicEffect in other components loses it's depth sorting and the Quads are drawn in the order called. Note that this component is added to the Game class via this.Components.Add(...).
Is there an incompatibility between BasicEffect and SpriteBatch? The problem occurs whenever SpriteBatch.Begin()/End() is called. If I don't call this the cat/dog render fine.
Any ideas?

A: You need to reset some renderstates that SpriteBatch changes.
Try setting these before your basiceffect calls:
GraphicsDevice.BlendState = BlendState.Opaque;
GraphicsDevice.DepthStencilState = DepthStencilState.Default;

More information about which render states SpriteBatch alters:

The Establishment of the African Union Hybrid Court for South Sudan
Human Rights Watch, Institute for Security Studies and Et al
https://www.csrf-southsudan.org/repository/the-establishment-of-the-african-union-hybrid-court-for-south-sudan/
On August 25, Transitional Justice Working Group of South Sudan, Human Rights Watch, and Institute for Security Studies held a webinar for the African Union (AU) Peace and Security Council (PSC) members and other officials to discuss the urgency for the establishment of the AU Hybrid Court for South Sudan, as a key factor to ensuring long term stability and accountability for serious crimes in South Sudan.
The initiative came on the heels of a joint letter, signed by 24 South Sudanese, regional and international civil society organizations calling upon the AU PSC to take concrete action to enable the immediate creation of the Hybrid Court on South Sudan (HCSS). In preparation for the webinar, Human Rights Watch published a question and answer document on the three accountability mechanisms provided for in South Sudan's 2015 and 2018 peace agreements and the rationale for the AU's unilateral establishment of the hybrid court, available here. On the day of the webinar, the panelists – who represented perspectives from AU officials as well as South Sudanese and international lawyers and activists –presented on accountability mechanisms agreed to by the parties to the conflict and opportunities and challenges to achieving accountability to break the cycles of violence and impunity in South Sudan.

Considering the state: Perspectives on South Sudan's subdivision and federalism debate
Mareike Schomerus and Lovise Aalen
https://www.odi.org/publications/10542-considering-state-perspectives-south-sudans-subdivision-and-federalism-debate
In October 2015, the president of the Republic of South Sudan, Salva Kiir Mayardit, decreed a change in the country's administrative structure and increased the number of states from 10 to 28.
The entire process had been accompanied by much political speculation and confrontation. What were the reasons for this decision? Was it a good decision for South Sudan? What interests did it serve? Why did it happen at this time? Was dividing South Sudan into 28 states legal and constitutional? What would the consequences be? How would the subdivision into 28 states relate to what had been agreed in the Agreement for the Resolution of Conflict in South Sudan (ARCSS) that was signed in August 2015?
The creation of 28 states and the aftermath are only the latest events in a long history of debate and practice on how to divide South Sudan administratively. Recent steps have further invigorated a discussion that has been at times acrimonious, at others exploratory. It is intensely political, as the latest events have shown.
The purpose of this report is not to comment extensively on the latest events, or to recommend what might be the best structure for South Sudan. Rather, its starting point is the persistence of the debate in South Sudanese history. It acknowledges that, regardless of the next developments, there is a need for a structured and informed review of the myriad challenges and opportunities that arise from different administrative structures.

Republic of South Sudan: Debt Sustainability Analysis
Roger Nord, Paloma Anos Casero and Et al
https://www.csrf-southsudan.org/repository/republic-south-sudan-debt-sustainability-analysis/
Despite moderate levels of external debt, the combined impact of a civil conflict, a large fall in oil prices, and high levels of fiscal spending has left South Sudan in debt distress. This crisis has caused payment delays on international obligations, on civil servant salaries, and other government obligations. Moreover, international lines of credit have been restructured on longer maturities, international reserves have declined to near exhaustion, and the country is currently constrained from accessing long term external financing. However, assuming implementation of the recently adopted economic adjustment policies and a successful peace process, the debt outlook would improve considerably which could allow for a gradual resumption of external financing. However, vulnerabilities remain high and a
prolonged period of lower oil prices or failure to address the country's economic and security problems could cause continued debt sustainability problem.

Patchwork States: The Localization of State Territoriality on the South Sudan–Uganda Border, 1914–2014
CHERRY LEONARDI
doi:10.1093/pastj/gtz052
This paper takes a localized conflict over a non-demarcated stretch of the Uganda–South Sudan boundary in 2014 as a starting point for examining the history of territorial state formation on either side of this border since its colonial creation in 1914. It argues that the conflict was an outcome of the long-term constitution of local government territories as patches of the state, making the international border simultaneously a boundary of the local state. Some scholars have seen the limited control of central governments over their borderlands and the intensification of local territorialities as signs of African state fragmentation and failure. But the article argues that this local territoriality should instead be seen as an outcome of ongoing state-formation processes in which state territory has been co-produced through local engagement and appropriation. The paper is thus of wider relevance beyond African or postcolonial history, firstly in contributing a spatial approach to studies of state formation which have sought to replace centre–periphery models with an emphasis on the centrality of the local state. Secondly it advances the broader field of borderlands studies by arguing that international boundaries have been shaped by processes of internal territorialisation as well as by the specific dynamics of cross-border relations and governance. Thirdly it advocates a historical and processual approach to understanding territory, arguing that the patchwork of these states has been fabricated and reworked over the past century, entangling multiple, changing forms and scales of territory in the ongoing constitution of state boundaries.

COVID-19 and the Political Transition in South Sudan

The implementation of the R-ARCSS is stalled, as the parties have had difficulty gathering sufficient momentum to push the Agreement forward.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has had serious negative impacts on the ability of the parties to implement the Agreement.
The crush of oil prices in the global market, South Sudan's lack of credit worthiness internationally, US Treasury's warnings, corruption, and South Sudan's weak fiscal and monetary policies, all make it difficult for the country to access external resources to cushion budget shortfalls.
While the economic downturn as a result of the pandemic has dried up the public coffers, a combination of distrust among the parties and lack of political will is the most important factor hampering the implementation of the R-ARCSS.
To turn things around, leadership of the parties to the Agreement must renew their commitment to the Agreement and show by actions their willingness to move the country forward, possibly attracting external budgetary supports.
The international community needs to push the parties to live by their commitments and also contribute necessary financial and material resources to enable the parties to overcome the economic consequences of COVID-19. Significant donor reengagement will require evidence of significantly higher political will for peace in South Sudan.
The formation of state government is extremely critical to combating the pandemic and to restoring peace at the grassroots, which will help protect people from the virus and reduce cattle raiding and communal violence. Recent developments toward this issue are commendable.
Provisions aimed at returning to democracy and good governance such as election and constitutional making processes should be expedited and started early so as to build confidence in this transition. The parties to the Agreement blame current deficits in democracy and governance on COVID-19.
Should the parties fail to implement governance protocols fully, the potential for national elections to be conducted will have been thwarted, risking a return to an all-out war.

COVID-19 in South Sudan's Borderlands: A view from Northern Bahr El-Ghazal

Focusing on South Sudan's borderland with Sudan, in Northern Bahr el-Ghazal, it is clear that the national response to the virus, particularly the border shutdown, has rapidly become a new factor in Sudan and South Sudan's cross-border political economy. The direct impact of COVID-19—like the consequences of Khartoum's political transition and the establishment of the Transitional Government of National Unity in Juba—are yet to fully materialize in this borderland. This update summarizes the current political holding pattern around both COVID-19 and the political transitions in Khartoum and Juba, and how these interact with established long-distance trade and migrant work systems that drive the borderland economy.
This briefing is a product of the X-Border Local Research Network, a component of DFID's Cross- Border Conflict—Evidence, Policy and Trends (XCEPT) programme, funded by UKaid from the UK government. The programme carries out research work to better understand the causes and impacts of conflict in border areas and their international dimensions. It supports more effective policymaking and development programming and builds the skills of local partners.

Hybrid governance in South Sudan: the negotiated state in practice
Peter Hakim Justina and Willemijn Verkoren
https://www.csrf-southsudan.org/repository/hybrid-governance-in-south-sudan-the-negotiated-state-in-practice/
This article draws on empirical data collected in Yei River County, South Sudan, to contribute to debates on hybrid governance in Africa. Current literature offers a limited understanding of the practical workings of hybridity, and particularly of whether and under what circumstances hybridity may meet the interests and solve the problems of citizens. This article discusses how subsequent historical attempts at state-building have left a complex and layered governance system and analyses how this system functions on the ground in Yei River County, focusing on the land and justice sectors. The empirical analysis reveals institutional development to be ongoing and to be shaped through continuous negotiations among local stakeholders. Whilst in the land sector, this process produced power imbalances and violence, in the justice sector, unexpected institutional cooperation improved access to justice for local citizens. Important factors in determining these institutional outcomes have been what we have termed the two P's: pragmatism and power.

Speaking Truth to Power in South Sudan: Oral Histories of the Nuer Prophets
Jedeit J. Riek and Naomi R. Pendle
http://riftvalley.net/publication/speaking-truth-power-south-sudan
Prophets—those recognised as having been 'seized' by a divinity—have played an important role in the history of South Sudan, particularly that of the Nuer people. They were seen as being powerful political actors and, alongside chiefs, important intermediaries for the colonial authorities. However, the influence of the Nuer prophets goes much further than mobilizing or de-mobilizing the Nuer population to or from violence. In the UN Protection of Civilians Site (POCS) in Bentiu, where over one hundred thousand war-displaced now live, the histories of the prophets have become a means through which POCS residents explain both the spiritual causes of war and their current predicament.
Speaking Truth to Power focuses on the life of Kolang Ket—a major prophet in the early twentieth century. His story, as recounted in the Bentiu POCS, includes his seizure by the deity known as MAANI, how he has wielded political authority and his legacy, which extends to the present day. Acknowledging the influence of the prophets is important to those trying to understand the contemporary political reality of South Sudan. This, by extension, can help external actors to assist the South Sudanese population in shaping a more sustainable, locally relevant peace, which goes beyond the fragile elite deals normally agreed by the country's politicians.

To begin with there is a difference in ironing and pressing. When you iron a garment, you are smoothing out wrinkles with a gliding motion. Pressing, on the other hand is lifting the iron up and down with the goal to meld the thread into the fabric, open the seams or shape the seam or other portions of the item into a curved shape. Ironing by sliding can cause distortion – pulling the fabric off grain or otherwise distorting in an unintended manner. Allow the fabric to cool before moving on, as hanging moist fabric over the edge of the ironing board can also distort the fabric as it cools and dries. Match your iron settings to your fabric – test if you have delicate or expensive fabric.
Jami's hint is before you do major shaping or seam pressing – do a fit check – don't press in a seam that needs to be modified. But also to press as you sew.
Plan out your pressing for a quilt. Some patterns will come with instructions to sew a group of pieces together and then press all of the seams in a specific direction. Usually quilt seams are pressed to one side so that when the next block or piece is added the seams lie in opposite directions to reduce bulk. There may be specific times when a seam is pressed one direction or another. For example the seams may be pressed to the darker fabric when they might shadow through a light one, or pressed open if the quilt is made from a heavy fabric like a denim.
There are different techniques and specialize products that make the job easy.
Iron specifics – For sewing efficiency, have your iron on and close to your sewing machine. I love to have the option of lots of steam. My weapon of choice is a Pro Rowenta with a side tank that doesn't require cooling to refill. The gravity fed irons carried locally by Fabrique are also highly recommended. If you are creating large items like quilts, you may want to consider an ironing board topper like the brand "Big Board" that extends the width of the board and the shape to be rectangular. There are also specialty ironing board and iron covers as well. A local quilt shop Stitched with Love-McKinney, carries the Bo-Nash Iron Slide covers and iron shoe. These are available in different ironing board sizes. Your fabrics will be safe from iron damage with these products.
Pattern prep – I always press with a dry iron, the tissue paper patterns to remove wrinkles and allow for more accurate fabric cutting. If you do pattern alterations use a non melting tape. Marla Kazell recommends 3M's micropore .
Iron Tools – When sewing a seam, first press the seam closed. This allows the seam thread to meld into the fabric. Then generally for a seam, it will be pressed open. Some areas will require a form of some sort to create the correctly shaped curve or to allow access to the seam. Tailor hams, sausages are fabric forms that have wool on one side and cotton on the other. They are generally stuffed tightly with sawdust. Sleeve boards are both fabric and wood. Point board pressers, tailor clappers, and seam or strip stick are wood devices to allow you easy access and control of a seam by their size and shape or a clapping action to flatten a seam.
Pressing Cloths – A Rajah cloth is a chemically treated cloth that will either set a pleat or crease or remove one. This notion is available from multiple sewing related stores. On your next visit to Fabrique , pick up a 1/4 to 1/2 yard of cream or white 100% SILK organza. Cut or tear into pressing cloth sized pieces, it is sheer enough to see through and will protect your delicate fabrics. Louise Cutting recommends having one dedicated for use in pressing iron – on interfacings. (Silk organza also makes great underlining and interfacing) When creating with corduroy or velvet, you must use a velvet pressing board or mat. These will keep the nap of these fabrics from crushing or becoming shiny. On a side note – you can use this characteristic of velvet to make embossed patterns by using large rubber stamps and your iron. Check out this Threads article for specifics.
And finally, there are some fabrics that cannot be pressed. Leather seams (and other skin type fabrics) are generally flattened with a seam roller or a mallet and then glued down with a rubber cement. Vinyl, oilcloth are other fabrics that don't like to be ironed. Use clips like the Clover or Getta Grip Sewing clips instead of pinning and to mold the seams open with or without adhesive.
What is your favorite pressing tip?

Most of us know that losing weight and feeling great are two of the benefits of leading an active lifestyle, but did you know that exercise is amazingly good for the brain? Research findings continue to suggest that physical activity, even in small amounts, may delay or slow cognitive decline in older adults. This is great news to those of who wish to remain independent as we age.
Crossword puzzles and other brain games definitely keep your brain active, but adding exercise increases the benefits and has shown to improve brain functions. Researchers have also shown that exercise may delay the onset of brain disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Another benefit is the human brain's ability to maintain old neural connections and create new ones that are vital to healthy brain functioning.
In addition, exercise boosts mood and self-confidence by the body's natural production of endorphins, which are proven to reduce stress, help ward off feelings of depression, relieve anxiety, and help improve sleep…all leading to better brain health. And a healthy brain can help people live productive and satisfying lives, no matter our age. Also, maintaining a positive outlook on life is important. The emphasis of positive self-talk plus finding deeper meaning to our lives helps increase happiness and longevity.
Diet also plays a crucial role in cognitive functioning. According to Michael R. Mantell, PhD, "First, the link is what you think. The way to your stomach is through your mind." Research suggests that eating certain foods (and avoiding others) can help keep the brain healthy.
In example a diet rich in green leafy vegetables and cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, is associated with reduced rate of cognitive declines. Avoiding highly processed foods and saturated fats is also recommended.
Healthy lifestyle changes bring about many benefits, in addition to the obvious ones such as losing weight and feeling great. A healthy brain will help to live a high functioning life as we age. Fitness really does start in the brain!

Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Hanbal Abu Abd Allah al-Shaybani (în arabă :  احمد بن محمد بن حنبل ابو عبد الله الشيباني ), cunoscut ca imamul Ahmad ibn Hanbal (n. 780 - m. 855) s-a născut la Bagdad și a fost un important teolog și un savant musulman. El este considerat fondatorul uneia dintre cele patru școli sunnite, școala hanbalită. Este, de asemenea, fondatorul unei școli teologice islamice ('aqida). Ibn Hanbal este unul dintre cei mai renumiți teologi sunniți, atribuindu-i-se titlul de Shaykh al-Islam, un titlu onorific ce este atribuit autorităților doctrinale în tradiția sunnită.

Biografie

Ibn Hanbal s-a născut într-o familie arabă originară din Basra, Irak, ce aparținea tribului arab Banu Shayban. Tatăl său a fost ofițer al armatei abbaside în Khorasan, iar mai apoi s-a stabilit împreună cu familia sa la Bagdad, acolo unde s-a născut Ahmad, în anul 780.
Ibn Hanbal a fost contemporanul a doi califi care au vrut să impună un nou curent, Mu'tazilismul, care presupunea credința în ideea de creație a Coranului. A fost arestat și torturat timp de doi ani de către califul Al-Ma'mun, pentru că a îndrăznit să se opună acestor principii, iar această practică a continuat în timpul celor doi succesori ai lui Al-Ma'mun, Al-Mu'tasim și Al-Wathiq. După moartea califului, Ibn Hanbal continuă să predea la Bagdad, până ce califul Al-Wathiq reîncepe persecuția. De atunci, imamul a încetat să își mai împărtășească ideile și se ascunde timp de cinci ani, până în 847, când califul Al-Mutawakkil desființează mutazilismul și îi expulzează pe adepții săi, susținând  reîntoarcerea la tradiția islamică, la principiile islamului ortodox sunnit.

Activitatea de cercetare

După ce a studiat fiqh-ul (jurisprudența islamică) și știința hadith-ului sub îndrumarea mai multor profesori la Bagdad, în Siria și Yemen, Ibn Hanbal a acumulat suficiente cunoștințe și a hotărât să fondeze o școală de gândire riguroasă care părea cea mai apropiată de învățăturile Coranului și ale Sunnei.

Lui i se datorează o importantă cercetare a tradițiilor deoarece a descoperit că hadith-urile sunt clasificate urmând  lanțurile de transmițători care trebuie să urce până la sursa inițială, ajungându-se chiar până la unul dintre tovarășii profetului Muhammad și în funcție de autenticitatea lor erau grupate în patru clase: sahih (autentic, sănătos), hasan (bun), da'if (slab) și saqim (bolnav). Ibn Hanbal a scris, de asemenea, lucrări de comentarii despre hadith-uri și principiile morale în islam, dar și elogii adresate primilor califi Rashidun.

Școala hanbalită

Școlile juridice, numite madhab în limba arabă, erau formate din învățați musulmani, care aveau rolul de a găsi soluții juridice pentru anumite probleme ivite în cadrul comunității. Până în ziua de astăzi, fiecare musulman aparține unei școli, ghidându-și existența în funcție de preceptele acesteia.

Doctrina hanbalită se caracterizează prin respectarea strictă  Coranului și a Sunnei și este foarte apropiată de mișcarea salafistă. Aceasta respinge ideea de inovație și condamnă abaterile religioase sau politice care au apărut de-a lungul istoriei califatului, începând cu kharigismul și toate formele de șiism. Acesta este și motivul pentru care Ibn Hanbal se opune principiilor școlii hanefite care acceptă, pe lângă izvoarele primare al dreptului canonic, opinia personală rațională.

Printre elevii lui Ahmad Ibn Hanbal s-au numărat cei doi fii ai săi, Salih (m. 873) și Abdullah (m. 903) și chiar și imamii Bukhari, Muslim, savanți de Hadith și culegători de hadith-uri eponime, iar printre continuatorii săi figurează Ibn Taymiyya (1263-1328), care îl va inspira pe teologul Muhammad Ibn Abd al-Wahhab, iar mai apoi pe emirul Muhammad Ibn Sa'ud, motiv pentru  care Regatul Arabiei Saudite se conformează și astăzi principiilor emise de școala hanbalită.

Mihna

Ibn Hanbal a devenit celebru înainte de Inchiziție sau Mihna] califului abbasid Al-Ma'mun. Acesta a emis concepția referitoare la caracterul creat al Coranului, potrivit căreia orice persoană care se afla în funcția de judecător trebuia să adere la acest concept, califul încercând prin această metodă să își impună autoritatea religioasă făcând presiuni chiar și asupra savanților pentru a  adopta acest curent, Mu'tazila, conform căruia Coranul era creat și nu revelat/increat. S-a înființat un tribunal inchizitorial (mihna) care avea ca rol judecarea celor care se opuneau aderării la această dogmă. Conform tradiției Sunna, Ibn Hanbal a fost printre oamenii de știință care s-au opus inițiațivei califului și doctrinei Mu'tazila, fapt care i-a adus multe prejudicii.

Moartea

Ahmad Ibn Hanbal a murit în anul 855 la Bagdad, Irak.
De-a lungul istoriei, Ibn Hanbal a fost foarte apreciat pentru activitatea întreprinsă în domeniul cercetării tradițiilor profetice și pentru perseverența de care a dat dovadă în apărarea dogmei ortodoxe sunnite. În ciuda tuturor laudelor și aprecierilor primate de-a lungul existenței sale, unul dintre contemporanii săi a mărturisit că Ibn Hanbal nu se fălea niciodată cu realizările sale.

From TV appearances to gracing the cover of magazines, Mike & Mike's Organics is making waves in the media and capturing the limelight.
TORONTO — Organic importer and distributor Mike & Mike's believes it has found the best way to help retailers and consumers distinguish organic produce from conventional.
Nearly two years ago, owners Mike Fronte and Mike Dattoli started a private-label line called Organic Select to pack bulk dried fruits and nuts. The idea quickly evolved into packing fresh organic produce in mesh bags, ranging from three avocados to 4 pounds of grapefruit.
That led to the purchase last year of a high-tech machine from Spain for their 21,000 square feet of space and 11,000 square feet of refrigeration, which they expect to soon outgrow.
"It's a huge investment, but I think it will pay off because that's the route some of the bigger stores want to go — the products are more clearly marked and easily identifiable," said Fronte.
The line recently expanded again to include hand-packed shallots, ginger and garlic in 5- to 8-ounce bags.
"How else do you mark organic ginger?" said Fronte, who began his career working for Longo's supermarkets and high-end independent Pusateri's Fine Foods. He owned and sold another organic company before launching Mike & Mike's in 2003.
Sales of the Organic Select line to some 130 independent health food stores have skyrocketed, Fronte said.
"We started the business with one tractor-trailer load a week of product, and now we're doing six or seven loads," he said.
Packing under its own label has also forced Mike & Mike's to address the consistency of its offering.
"If the customer had a good experience with a bag of oranges one week, we felt it was important for them to be able to go back to the store and get that same experience week after week," Fronte said.
To remove the guesswork for consumers, the two Mikes now taste-test the produce they bring in to find the sweetness and/or taste profile they're looking for before bagging.
Mexican avocados are currently a best seller, he said, and he's found outstanding organic cara cara oranges and Fair Trade Chilean blueberries this winter.
One challenge to importing organics is a minor variance between Canadian and U.S. organic standards, harmonized in 2009.
Customer service and his extensive retail knowledge also have played roles in Mike & Mike's success, he said.
And the guy who grew up in produce admits he really loves selling organics.

Traditional marketing tactics fail to wow consumers, Boomn startup says
By: Elyssa Bezner, Reporter- June 06, 2018
Boomn
If an idea doesn't prompt a "Heck yeah!" response from the team at Boomn, it gets an "Um, no" verdict, said Ryan O'Connell.
A data-driven and performance-based digital marketing company, KC-based Boomn works primarily with ecommerce brands. Such clients range from food and beverage companies to TV and YouTube personalities, said O'Connell, Boomn's chief operating officer.
Ryan O'Connell
Founded in early 2017, Boomn operates with a tight-knit team of nine and has serviced more than 30 clients in its first year, he said.
TV and Youtube personalities are a different animal compared to more traditional markets, O'Connell said, with those clients coming pre-packaged with large fan bases and engaged customers.
"It allows us to not spend as much time on hyper-targeting and identifying audiences and allows us to be creative in how we're monetizing and engaging with their audiences," he said.
The marketing industry is an ever-changing landscape, O'Connell said, with companies like Boomn tasked to manage shifting platforms and conduct effective use of those platforms while acquiring customers.
"Fortunately, we've put together a collection of uber-talented individuals that understand how fast-paced the industry is and know how to stay ahead of the curve so that we can keep our clients ahead of the curve," he said.
That requires Boomn grab customers via two traditional routes — outbound and inbound marketing — at once.
"Relying on just outbound marketing efforts such as paid customer acquisition or setting up a proper inbound funnel with organic content and social media isn't comprehensive and complete enough of a strategy anymore to effectively market online," said O'Connell.
