Among the greatest things favoring the use of a debt consolidation loan would be the chance to help save a considerable amount of income. Debt consolidation reduction is the term regarding any time you take out one financial loan to settle several other financial obligations. Numerous accounts having numerous interest rates can easily strain you. That is why many benefit from the simple interest rate of a debt consolidation loan in Eaton. People who gain most out of this include the people with a large difference in their rates of interest.
The greatest thing which a Colorado citizen having a number of loans is able to do is to learn about the advantages of debt consolidation reduction. In lieu of tracking and spending money on several balances month after month, you can start paying one single monthly installment to just one organization. Having to deal with so many financial obligations each month also generates a great deal of tension with your finances. Because of this, a debt consolidation loan is quite favored with folks who wish to bring it all the way down to an individual installment . Therefore, you reduce the likelihood of being past due on a payment , which can have a serious negative impact on your credit rating.
Though consolidating debts is a great strategy for helping to make your monthly payments more convenient, lowering them down to one, it is additionally an excellent tool for saving quite a bit of cash, making it one of the more preferred debt help alternatives in Eaton. Having to deal with just one loan would mean that you have only one monthly interest. As time goes by, this will save lots of cash. All you need to do to realize just how much you're actually saving would be to affirm that the new rate of interest brings a reduced charge on your consolidation loan balance in comparison to the total interest charges incurred on your combined credit and loan balances. Should you miscalculate the importance of personal savings with this strategy, you could overlook a golden opportunity to save several hundred dollars. Sometimes, you may save a couple of thousand. You don't want to agree to anything, however, without first being sure you're actually likely to gain advantage as a result of saving over the course of the consolidation loan.
Debt Consolidation Reduction Lending Option Considerations: Figure Out If You Qualify!
Obviously, consolidation is a great approach for many reasons. You shouldn't stop reading right here, as you have to have all the details ahead of attempting to deal with this particular debt elimination option. Some folks do not qualify for debt consolidation.
A high credit rating is your best asset in seeking help with debt through loan consolidation. This is because a debt consolidation loan is often very large, and so no lending company wants to take a great risk with such a great deal of money on somebody with a poor reputation of paying debts. You should only think of this solution if you've got fantastic credit scores.
Is your credit rating sufficient? If you live in Eaton with a credit score beneath Seven hundred, your credit is below excellent and you're less apt to be approved. Credit rating is significant, but there is more to debt consolidation loan approval than this. Credit score really matters little if there isn't an income source. Thus, you should ensure not just that you have got a fantastic credit history but that you have a steady employment or other resource for continuous and solid cash flow.
Basic steps to receiving a Eaton, Colorado debt consolidation loan: You need to determine exactly which of your loans must be consolidated through the loan. The consolidation lender is likely to want to know these details, together with the full payment sum necessary. It'll also be smart to have at hand the information about the amount of debt to be paid back with the consolidation loan.
Additionally, you will want to try to get low interest rates in a consolidation loan. Any sort of consolidation loan needs to have an interest rate created to cost less money over time. Ensure that this is the case. Make time to investigate community banks and other lenders offering debt consolidation loans to find out which ones have got the least expensive rates of interest.
There's a lot more to picking the ideal debt consolidation reduction loan provider than interest rates. You should fully familiarize yourself with the consolidation loan's conditions. Your signature is the binding agreement to the repayment plan, the month-to-month installment amount, the fees for overdue payments, and the monthly interest, all of which will be included in the terms.
A lot of clients uncover answers from the Better Business Bureau (BBB) on whether or not a loan company will be worth dealing with. The evaluations from consumers with knowledge about the lender make the BBB a important reference point for lots of people trying to find consolidation loans. A great debt consolidation reduction organization will need to have a rating of at least an A-. The providers with A scores are the best to use.
Discovering the right lender is only the start, and the following stage is to prepare and send a debt consolidation reduction loan application. The application procedure involves obtaining an application personally or seeking one which you'll be able to submit online, then providing verification of your income and verification of your identity when you're contacted by the financial institution. You simply can't be approved for any kind of consolidation loan without providing this evidence. You'll also want to present details about the loans that you're looking to consolidate.
Your alternatives for submitting your consolidation loan application will not be limited to the web. You cannot assume all lenders offer postal mail service applications or telephone call applications, but many do, therefore you only have to look for them. You may choose to do business with any application procedure you prefer: internet, telephone, or postal mail.
Whether or not you will be okayed for the consolidation loan is dependent upon the final results of the investigation conducted as you wait for a reply. At this time, the lender investigates to be certain that your credit rating is excellent and you correctly depicted yourself. If all checks out and also your credit score is outstanding, you will end up approved. You can anticipate receiving your acceptance by mail, e-mail, or phone. You'll be contacted as you filled out the application, but you have the option of deciding on another contact method, if you want to.
Application accepted?? Congratulations! So, you have to put your signature on a few legal agreements and consolidation loan forms. You ought to be confident with anything you consent to by way of signature, so investigate the official document. Look for and thoroughly investigate the fine print that you discover in the document. It's always best to examine what you're putting your signature on, in spite of the amount of faith you've got in the organization. When everything is agreed upon, the lending company will handle everything else; this includes paying back your loans and opening up the new loan balance with their company. Once the debts are repaid in full, you get letters from your previous credit and loan providers notifying you to the positive changes. These are not notices to dispose of, but should be held for some time after debt has been settled, just in case they're needed.
You need to have a credit rating of six-eighty, at the very least, in order to look at the consolidation option. Investigate the following alternatives. They were designed with consumers such as you in mind, to save you income and enable you to repay your debt quicker.
Debt settlement is another preferred option with a lot of Eaton residents. Anybody with a whole lot of personal debt and a poor credit rating should look into this method. Any debt settlement agent isn't going to provide you a financial loan to merge all of your debt. Instead, it's going to aid you in bargaining for some of your debt eradicated. A debt settlement agency aims to work out a mutually advantageous deal with the creditors and loan companies to whom are indebted to by large sums of cash. You can also set it up to ensure you are spending less each month than you had been before. Your credit history may even strengthen whenever you effortlessly make your installments on time and make progress on paying off the full balance.
It's going to cost money to use this method, also. Often, the charges are very costly. They are generally based on a portion of your settled debt. Debt settlement continues to be a wildly popular way for people with poor credit and a large amount of consumer debt.
This is the last resort for many people, yet it is definitely a great way to find assistance with consumer debt when you're in above your head. It's best to avoid letting the thought of bankruptcy even form in your thoughts until you have established that there are honestly no other possibilities open to you. You are not eligible for a lot of lending options for quite a while in the aftermath of declaring bankruptcy. By filing for bankruptcy, you reveal to financial institutions that you are helpless to repay the obligations that you bring upon yourself.
Besides that, filing for bankruptcy is also a quick means to have your credit rating immediately drop and to do quite drastically. The majority of people who declare Chapter Seven or Chapter 13 consumer bankruptcy find that their credit scores immediately decline 2 hundred points or even more. This is often devastating for people who must apply for a loan or anything else that needs a credit check later on.
Normally, an attorney is needed for consumer bankruptcy procedures, and you'll also need to spend on certain other relevant costs, such as processing charges. As a result, it might be a pricey process. It is very smart to have a legal professional with you to make certain each of the basic steps are accomplished as they ought to be and that the process is completed swiftly. A portion of the overall financial debt or even a set fee could be incurred by your lawyer, so be prepared for this.
A bankruptcy proceeding does have a number of advantages. Sometimes, you can figure out an agreement with your loan companies and credit card companies via consumer bankruptcy to either absolve debts or take assets as payment. You can easily see why this could be better than making significant installment payments without making any kind of improvement, forever. Not all kinds of personal debt are controlled through the individual bankruptcy solution. To illustrate, this strategy is not going to affect your student education loans.
A credit debt counselor will help you to assess if a bankruptcy proceeding is truly the best option to manage your debt in Eaton.
Make sure to do your research on any sort of alternative you choose, understanding that there are a variety of answers out there. Fifty percent of the fight is picking your solution. At this point, it is possible to start looking forward with full confidence in a healthier fiscal outlook on life.

C& Print Issue #11: Conscious Codes, Anyone?
Black Mirrors and Afro-Surrealism with David Alabo
Read the first text from our new Print Issue #11 entitled Conscious Codes, Anyone? focusing on digital arts and their potential for connecting to the past and inventing the future. This interview with cover artist David Alabo dives into his Afro-surrealistic approach, he uses to visually articulate digital African landscapes that are speculative, familiar, and fantastical. Based in Accra, the artist has a unique Moroccan Ghanaian identity and forged his creative personality in Italy, Ghana, and the United States. Alabo's strange and eerie images are fashioned by software, with all its possibilities for productive manipulation.

By Russel Hlongwane
Fragments of Accra, such as the skull, often feature in Alabo's work—"a statement that is both metaphorical and political about trader women who balance their livelihoods upon their craniums." His images of an undulating Sahara express loneliness, alluding to states of isolation and alienation associated with mental illness, which the artist thinks needs urgent attention among African peoples. His other concerns include the gendered identities of his subjects, which he obfuscates by creating isolated androgynous figures negotiating vast desertscapes.
The sum of his work is a kaleidoscopic rendering of Africanity through juxtapositions of African tropes and imaginaries, with a chromatic, shiny quality, that he describes as "reflective points," in both metaphorical and literal terms. In this interview, Russel Hlongwane speaks to the artist about black mirrors, the tradition of surrealism in Africa, and the possibilities of digital art.

Contemporary And: Let's talk Afro- Surrealism, within which I include the traditions of folklore and the literature of Ben Okri and Ngũgĩ Wa Thiong'o. What is your version of surrealist history in Africa, and how have these authors informed the visual manifestation of your practice?
David Alabo: Surrealism is the perfect genre to describe the complicated and abstract experience of Blackness. It allows an artist to express unfiltered thoughts and emotions in the work, the same way writers do with language. Afro-Surrealism focuses on augmentation, on overcoming the many struggles that define our history and assuming the agency of our narrative.
It calls on us to ask what freedom for Black people will look like in the future. Futurism and Surrealism are similar in that they both rely heavily on the speculative—endless possibilities that continue to change, with time as the main influence.
C&: Where or how do you situate your work within the Afro-Surrealist lineage, given that it is screen based?
DA: My work is as informed by the past as it is by the present. We live in a world that is dominated by "black mirrors" or screens. Art has transcended the physical realm into the virtual and so have the artists and media that accompany it. We show our works on virtual platforms, so why not make art the same way?
David Alabo, Sablier, 2019. Digital Art Print. Courtesy the artist
C&: Do you believe in problematizing the term "Afro-Futurism(s)," as some critics argue for, owing to its history and reductive aesthetic matrix?
DA: "Afro-Futurism" gained popularity as a means to describe a movement and way of thinking established long before the term's inception. Exploring identity within the context of alienation and displacement in order to envision alternative realities is a natural part of the Black experience.
Creating and questioning the status quo is just as important as the meaning behind the art. It's empowering to have that freedom of expression. Our imagination is informed by the past and is inseparable from our visions of the future. Afro-Futurism is more than an aesthetic trend—it's a beacon of hope and an escape from the harsh realities of the now.
C&: I am interested in your collaborations with commercial entities like fashion brand Daily Paper and media company Quartz. How does this work exist alongside your Afro-Surrealist practice?
DA: When you work to create new worlds with people who share your vision, there is a freedom and trust that allows you to explore concepts without hesitation. Daily Paper is dedicated to promoting African culture by honoring the past and its influence on creating a vision of the future. The company pushes the boundaries and challenges perceptions of Africa in the fashion world, which is what I aim to achieve in the art world too. It just makes sense that we work together and inspire each other.
David Alabo, Introspection, 2019. Digital Art Print. Courtesy the artist.
C&: What possibilities does digital art present?
DA: The way we absorb and appreciate art is evolving as fast as the tools and technology we use to create as digital artists. That, together with the impact of years of social media and advertising, means we are almost hardwired to look out for media that are engaging and fluid with motion. Digital art merges seamlessly with the exciting world of augmented reality to add a new way of interacting with art and our perception of reality. We are on a continuous search for new tools to express ideas that are as unique as they are.
Russel Hlongwane is a cultural producer and creative industries consultant based in Durban. His work obsesses over tensions in Heritage/Modernity and Culture/Tradition as they apply to Black life. His said practice includes cultural research, creative production, design, and curatorship.

Childhood memories are full of vivid sights, smells, sounds, and tastes. There are few things that can trigger a memory like food can. Orangsicles are one of those unique tastes that you never forget. After that first lick you are hooked for life. I have taken that flavor and captured it in this Orangsicle Gooey Butter Cake.
I found this Orangesicle Cake Mix at Target the other day and I had to get it! I grabbed it and all of the other ingredients.
Press the orange cake mix stuff into the bottom of a 13×9 inch pan. Do yourself a huge favor and line it with parchment paper. If you don't have parchment paper at least grease it well. Trust me. The parchment paper made a HUGE difference in getting these out of the pan easily.
Now it's time for the best part. Beat together 1 8oz pack of softened cream cheese, 2 eggs, and 16 oz of powdered sugar.
Pour it right over the top of the orange cake. Spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Pop that bad boy in the oven and let it bake for 35-40 minutes. You want the top to be cooked but not overly brown. Now let it cool. This is the most torturous part. I pulled mine out of the oven, went and ran errands, came back and they were still a bit warm. They were cool enough to pop in the fridge to finish cooling.
Once cool you can slice into bars. Really, you choose the size. I hate it when a recipe says cut it in a 2 in x 2 in square. What if I am really hungry? So go ahead, be a rebel. Cut those bad boys as big as you want. It isn't every day you make Orangesicle Gooey Butter Cakes!
Preheat oven to 350 and line a 13x9 pan with parchment paper or grease well.
In a bowl beat cake mix, melted butter, and 1 egg until blended. Press into the 13x9 pan to form crust.
Bake for 35 - 40 minutes until the top starts to brown slightly and is set.
Remove and cool on the counter for about 1 hour before continuing to cool in the fridge.


Given that families still need to get places and buy stuff, what's happening? Simple. Crossovers.
According to statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau, the size of families has stayed fairly consistent for several years. In 2011, the last year there is charted data, the number of people in a family was 3.18. The last time it was above 3.20 was in 1986, when it hit 3.21. The largest number recorded was in 1940, when it reached 3.76. The closest it came to that future was in 1966, when it hit 3.72.
The number of those cars is slipping. Precipitously.
The delivery numbers of sedans in January across the board are surprising. And not in a good way.
For example, take the case at Chevrolet. The Malibu, which is now an even more stylish sedan that is as good-looking and well-appointed as anything in its class, had sales of 8,377 in January 2017—down 43.2% compared to the year earlier.
At Ford, it's the Fusion, which has undergone a bit of a refresh with some brightwork. Its sales are better, at 15,515, and it is down just 21.9%. "Just" is a bit ironic.
The Nissan Altima is doing better with sales of 18,931. Its decrease compared to the previous January is 14.6%.
The Honda Accord had sales of 19,536 units, which is off 5.9%.
The Toyota Camry, the car that, through 2016 was the best-selling in America for 15 years, had sales in January of 20,313, which is off 24.3% from the month a year earlier.
Now given that families are families and families still need to get places and buy stuff, what's happening?
The numbers of midsize crossovers sold by all of the companies herein mentioned is astonishing.
That number of the CR-V means that it is the best-selling vehicle in the U.S. in January that didn't have a box on the back.
There should be little doubt that crossover-type vehicles are the new family sedans. What's somewhat amusing is that these vehicles are based on car platforms. But OEMs have the opportunity to make more on a given crossover, not only because content can be added in comparatively greater abundance, but because they are perceived to be "more" than merely a car.
And given that there is an ever-increasing number of larger passenger vehicles on the road—the biggest-selling vehicle, again, was the Ford F-Series, of which 57,995 were sold in January, which was up 12.5% from last January—consumers want something that is at least a little bigger, at least from the point of view from behind the wheel.
Although there is a lot of discussion of the transformation to autonomous vehicles, the transformation from cars to crossovers is something that (1) is happening right now and (2) will have a bigger effect on the fleet in the near-to-mid-term than robot cars will.
And come to think of it, those robot cars are likely to be robotic crossovers.

Co-founder Jamie Hewlett has confirmed the record's existence, telling TASCHEN editor Julius Wiedemann: "We're working on another Gorilllaz album that we're going to be releasing next year. So we're going straight into the album with no break. Usually we have a good five-year break between each album but we decided: 'You know what? Let's keep going' because there's ideas for a few more albums so we're going to go straight into that."

Q: Can I change my nickname in ZombsRoyale mobile? On mobile when you create a new account it asks you to choose a nickname, for example I chose Player, it shows up as Player #6677 (because there are many people who also have that name.)
I want to change my name but I can't see an option to do so. Can I even change my name in ZombsRoyale mobile? I don't want to make another account.
I'm using android

A: You tap the setting gear on mobile and it's in settings.

A: I've been wanting to do this as well for a long time, and I've finally found an option to do so. I don't blame you for not seeing it, as it's really out of the way and tiny.
Click on the friends tab, then click the small "Change Zombs ID" button. It is in the wider of the two boxes, next to the "Your Zombs ID: " You'll be able to do this once for free, but after the first time it will start costing Gems.
EDIT: Better description:
The "Change Zombs ID" button can be found in the friends tab, below the purple invite button.

A: Simple, you can't change your name in zombsroyale.io mobile. People are getting it wrong, they say you can change your username (Player#1234) but you can't change your NICKNAME on mobile. On pc you can change it anytime for free but mobile doesn't have that feature available.

A: OK before you go into game it says nickname at the top you can change it there or go to friends it will say change id name change that.

International Criminal Court Backs Probe Of Duterte's War On Drugs In The Philippines
By Julie McCarthy
Published September 15, 2021 at 3:58 PM CDT
Investigators will focus on the period from 2016, when Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte took office, through March 2019, after which the Philippines was deemed to have withdrawn from the International Criminal Court in a bid to avert its jurisdiction.
The International Criminal Court has authorized a formal investigation into the controversial anti-drug war of the Philippines that has drawn international outrage.
By official count, at least 6,000 Filipinos, mostly poor drug peddlers and addicts, have been killed in the anti-drug police operations. But rights groups estimate the number of victims could be four times that.
The ICC's move Wednesday represents a dramatic turn for Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, the architect of the bloody crackdown. Investigators will focus on the period from 2016, when he took office, through March 2019, after which the Philippines was deemed to have withdrawn from the ICC in a bid to avert its jurisdiction.
Prosecutors will also examine the anti-drug campaign Duterte waged as mayor of Davao City between 2011 and 2016.
Diane Orentlicher, an American University international law professor, says broadening the timeframe of the investigation helps establish that the national drug war was a continuation of the aggressive approach first deployed in Davao City.
The 76-year-old Duterte has scorned the court's prosecution team from the time it first began considering a possible investigation.
But on Wednesday the Pre-Trial chamber said that based on what has emerged, the Philippines' anti-drug campaign "cannot be seen as a legitimate law enforcement operation" nor the killings as "mere excesses in an otherwise legitimate operation." Rather, it said they indicate a "widespread and systematic attack against the civilian population."
Duterte accuses the ICC of meddling in the internal affairs of the Philippines and he has vowed to bar investigators from entering the country.
However, court watchers say it's not unusual for justice before the ICC to take years. And Duterte's term expires in June 2022, in less than nine months. Analysts say he is focused now on finding a successor who could possibly protect him from prosecution.

Latinas Face the Largest Wage Gap, And There's a Business Case For Closing It — 4 Reasons Why
Coach Sandra
I help women and minorities land dream jobs!
No matter what their job, where they live, or how much education or experience they have, Latinas are still paid less than white men, according to data in a study by Lean In, Unidos US and Survey Monkey. On average, Latinas in the U.S. are paid 47% less than white men and 31% less than white women. Surprisingly, the gap is largest for Latinas who have bachelor's degrees.
Clearly, equal pay for equal work is a social justice issue. However, if the main purpose of business is to maximize profits for its owners and shareholders, it's counter-intuitive to think organizations will earn more by increasing payroll. But it works.
The business case for closing the Latina pay gap:
1. It improves shareholder returns.
An analysis of the JUST 100 (top companies that do well by doing good) shows that companies who pay their median U.S. employee a third more than other companies do deliver 8% higher return on equity.
2. It drives top-line growth.
Results from a JUST Capital survey indicate that Americans will buy more from companies that show positive behavior by taking a stand on social issues such as gender pay, discrimination, immigration, climate change, and gun control.
3. It increases employee productivity.
Daily stressors can decrease work performance, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA). In a survey conducted by the YWCA, nearly half (45%) of Latinas report being very worried about being able to afford their rent or mortgage, decreasing their productivity.
4. Organizations gain profits from stronger economies.
The Institute for Women's Policy Research estimates that the U.S. economy would have produced income of $512.6 billion more if women received equal pay, and that the poverty rate would be cut in half, falling from 8.0% to 3.8% among working women.
Three ways to achieve equity, according to pioneers:
1. Tackle widespread ignorance.
Based on the Lean In study, 42% of Americans are not aware of the pay gap between Latinas and white women—and hiring managers are similarly unaware. In addition to a deep dive on the causes of the inequity, it is important that companies highlight the benefits of pursuing initiatives to address the gap as outlined above.
2. Implement proven strategies.
Closing the gap requires revisiting promotion, compensation and incentive policies to reward individual initiative while achieving equity at the same time. To avoid costly mistakes in the process, companies can look to the approaches used by Salesforce and GoDaddy in the U.S., PricewaterhouseCoopers in the U.K. and companies in Iceland that must comply with the country's equal pay law.
3. Equip Employee Resource Groups (ERGs).
Of the 15 countries with the biggest gender pay gaps in a Business Insider list, six are in Latin America. This means Latinas' inherited mindset may also affect their ability to negotiate better pay. By showing Latinas how to approach career and compensation discussions, ERGs can contribute to keeping companies accountable for putting their money where their mouth is.
Moving the needle on the Latina pay gap will require perseverance, given that there has been no real progress on closing the overall gender pay and labor participation gaps globally. However, by educating its workforce on the extent of problem, looking to pioneers for strategies that work and equipping Latinas to advocate for themselves, companies that lead in closing the Latina pay gap will reap benefits — including better shareholder returns.

This is so frustrating! But it's a good reminder that feminism needs to be intersectional and not just benefit us white women. We have a long way to go...
Yes! That's why I focused on the data that will help all of us make a case for why it makes sense to close pay gaps.

The death of Colonel FRANK HUGER at Roanoke, Va., a few days ago removed from this life another member of the old army, a soldier and a true gentleman of the old school now so rare. Colonel Huger was from South Carolina and was graduated fronm West Point in the class of I86o, served as a Second Lieutenant in the Tenth Infantry until June, 1861, when, acting upon his convictions, he resigned his commission and joined his fortunes with the Confederate States Army, serving as a Colonel of the regular artillery in that movement. Since the war Colonel Huger had been in the railroad business and was General Superintendent of Transportation of the Norfolk and Western Railway. He came from an old army family, his father being Major Benjamin Huger, formerly of the Ordnance Department, and his grandfather was General Thomas Pinckney of the Army of the Revolution and first minister from the United States to the Court of St. James. He was also a brother of Mr. Thomas Pinckney, now in charge of the interests of the Norfolk and Western Railway in New York. Colonel Huger was laid to rest in Lynchburg, Va., leaving a host of friends to mourn the loss of so genial and kind-hearted a gentleman. ARMY AND NAVY REGISTER.

We're pretty sure that we should be hallucinating right now. It doesn't mean that we are, but this feels like the hallucination of our dreams, the way that it's supposed to feel.
We start off with "Amber Hands" and we're confused. We're terrified about where this is going, where we're being taken and we can't tell if this is good or bad. We're thinking that it's going in the wrong direction though. We've gone off the rails and there is NO bringing it back. We're going to be buried. We think we're still alive, in fact, we're very certain of that and that would make the burial twice as bad, unfortunate even.
From there, the UK group S.C.U.M. take us into "Cast Into Seasons," a song that makes us settle down a lot. Everything has shifted into a more stable level and we're no longer afraid of where we're being taken. We consider that this is going to work out, that we won't be ground up in an engine and strewn about the ground like a shower of blood, muscle and bone. The lights are still pulsing and we're not out of the moody and somewhat scary woods just yet, but conditions are more favorable, hallucination-wise. Lead singer Thomas Cohen then scoops us right up in his arms and we move into a gentler portion of the freak-out. The looping sounds and the distorted sensations die down some and we feel as if Cohen knows exactly the right way to whisper, the right foods to offer us, how to administer the prescription or the antidote. We're still hallucinating, but this is a place that we could see ourselves living if it stays temperate and mostly like this. The occasional fucked up moments could be navigated.

SCOUTING THE NATION: LATEST OPT-OUT TRACKER, UNDER THE RADAR PROSPECTS & NAMES YOU NEED TO KNOW
As college football teams fall out of contention and the increase of Covid-19 cases around the country and college football continue to increase, expect to see an influx of opt out players who announce their intent to declare for the 2021 NFL Draft.
We started to see the announcements trickle out over the weekend as a slew of pro prospects took to social media to let their intent be known. We examine a few cases in this week's edition of 'Scouting The Nation.' Plus, a look at some of the top performers from this past weekend who were sure to catch the attention of NFL scouts.
ASANTE SAMUEL JR. LOOKS TO FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS
Florida State junior cornerback ASANTE SAMUEL JR. [5095/194] brings NFL bloodlines (Asante Samuel Sr.), impactful 2020 film and the versatility, which allows him to line up all over the field. With the Seminoles sitting at 1-6 and their final two games of the season in jeopardy of being postponed, it makes complete sense for him to move on and prepare for the draft. Coming in at just a shade under 5-10, Samuel will likely be featured in a slot cover corner type of role at the next level but he certainly showcased his propensity for the big play in 2020 with three interceptions, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble. Due to his coverage skills and knack for turnovers, Samuel Jr. could be in contention to be the first inside corner off the board, as he currently carries an early Day 2 grade.

ANOTHER LSU TIGER NFL BOUND
Coming off a National Championship, things have not panned out as expected for LSU who now sits at 3-4 after their loss to Texas A&M. Which is why the time has come for Tigers junior wide out TERRACE MARSHALL [6031/200] to focus on his future and prepare for the draft. Marshall is the latest LSU opt-out and projects as a potential top 50 overall selection due to his combination of size, body control and pedigree. A five-star recruit, Marshall really splashed onto the NFL radar with a sensational sophomore season and continued his ascension up draft boards this year, leading the team with 48 receptions, 731 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns; he now has 23 touchdowns in his past 19 games. The Louisiana native also possesses some NFL bloodlines, as his uncle Joe Delaney played for the Kansas City Chiefs.

LONGHORNS TACKLE APPEARS DESTINED FOR ROUND ONE
It will not be a surprise come April to have Texas offensive tackle SAMUEL COSMI [6061/309] hear his name called on Day One of the NFL Draft. The Humble, Texas native declared his intent recently and deservedly so. Cosmi has been a staple of consistency and durability, starting 34 games at both tackle positions over the past three years. His length, strength and technique as a pass-blocker and run mauler will make him a hot commodity, as Cosmi is one of the few prospects in this year's draft class with plug-and-play starting left tackle ability. Look for him to become the first Longhorns player to be selected in the first round since Malcom Brown (2015) and the first offensive lineman to have done so for Texas since Leonard Davis (2001).
Thank you Texas🤘🏼 pic.twitter.com/iHV71BbNQb

BADGERS CORNER WILDGOOSE JOINS THE NFL CHASE
One of the lesser-known draft commodities amongst the mainstream would be Wisconsin cornerback RACHAD WILDGOOSE [5112/197], who has also declared his intent for the upcoming NFL Draft. Albeit this year was a small body of work, in the two games that Wildgoose did play in, he performed at an extremely high level, showcasing a physical man coverage style that coaches crave at the next level. The Florida native owns inside/outside versatility, having started at both spots during his Badgers career and coaches will be quick to point out that Wildgoose owns plenty of that Miami swag, as he brims with confidence. In 25 career games, he totaled 57 tackles, five tackles for loss, two fumble recoveries, one interception and 15 passes defended. He did test positive for Covid-19 earlier in the season and departed the Northwestern game due to a shoulder injury, so we don't know how much impact, if any, that will have on his draft stock. Injuries aside, he should expect to get the call somewhere during the mid-late rounds.

ELUSIVE RUNNER KNOWS HOW TO AVOID THE 'D'
It has been an incredible season for Missouri senior running back LARRY ROUNTREE [5092/210], who had his best performance of the year thus far, rushing for 160 yards and three touchdowns against Vanderbilt. The previous week, Rountree set the school's all-time rushing record by a running back (3,398 rushing yards and counting). The team captain wore down the Commodores defense with his trademark hard-nosed running style, breaking tackles and ripping off several big runs; he now has 18 runs of 25+ yards for his career. Rountree possesses a well-built frame and owns a proven resume, having accumulated 12 career 100-yard rushing performances, while playing in the SEC. He has done enough to warrant a mid-round draft grade. As they say around Mizzou, Larry knows how to keeps the 'D' out of Rountree.

UNDER THE RADAR: UCF WIDE OUT JACOB HARRIS
One player who has shown just enough flashes to remain a blip on the NFL radar is UCF wide out JACOB HARRIS [6040/211]. The senior playmaker has been playing in the shadows of some very talented receivers over the past few seasons but tends to deliver in the clutch with some big splash plays of his own. He is averaging over 20 yards per reception for his career since transferring from Western Kentucky. This past week, Harris put on a career performance with five catches for 110 yards and three touchdowns. Earlier this season, he enjoyed a stretch where he scored in four consecutive games. Harris is extremely long and athletic, along with a frame that could eventually see him convert to tight end in the pros much like Jacob Hollister of the Seahawks.

MORRIS MAKES HIS PRESENCE KNOWN AMONGST SCOUTS
While Bowling Green has endured a winless season, the steady performance by tight end pass-catcher QUINTIN MORRIS [6033/248] has not been lost on NFL scouts. He has been the focal point of the Falcons offense and has 10 catches for 130 yards over the past two games. A three-year starter, Morris has established himself as an athletic, reliable target with 1,448 career receiving yards and 13 touchdowns. The Texas native has been utilized at both tight end and wide out spots, as he could have a role as an h-back type at the next level. Morris was also a basketball standout in high school, which contributes to his vertical game inside the red zone and makes for zest appeal as he transitions to the pros.
One player I expect to really excel is @BG_Football TE #80 Quintin Morris (@QuintinMorris_) who'll be entering yr 2 at the position. The former WR owns the AA & ball skills to go along with size & blocking ability, and 👇 play is a glimpse of what he can do. @NFLPABowl is 👀. pic.twitter.com/LODsfrJuOn

IOWA LINEBACKER UNLEASHES WITH BONE-CRUSHING HIT
Iowa senior defensive lineman CHAUNCEY GOLSTON [6036/270] is playing at a very high level, collecting at least four tackles in each of his past five games, with four sacks, one interception and a big bone-crushing hit that forced a fumble to help seal the deal on the Hawkeyes win over Nebraska this past week. The Detroit native does an outstanding job setting the edge with his length and physicality. Surprisingly, he was not heavily recruited coming out of high school, with Iowa being the lone FBS scholarship offer he received. However, Golston has been a steady, consistent performer as a three-year starter during his time in Iowa City. He owns some position flexibility, playing primarily at defensive end but could project as an interior player at the next level.

PLENTY OF KUONY IN THE BANK FOR CAL BACKER
California senior linebacker KUONY DENG [6052/250] continues to rack up tackles due to his bee-swarm mentality. Deng registered 14 tackles this past week against Stanford, flashing a lethal combination of size, range and athleticism. In addition, he tends to get his hands on a lot of batted balls. The Virginia native, whose family immigrated from South Sudan, began his career at Virginia Military Institute, where he played both football and basketball. He would then spend a season at Independence CC, before finding his way in Berkley. After registering 120 tackles a year ago, Deng is off to another hot start that has not gone unnoticed by NFL scouts. Look for him to gain serious momentum, as we work our way through the draft season.

A British ambassador is suing the Foreign Office after the leaders of a training course told her boss they thought she was 'wobbly' and 'inept'.
Amanda Tanfield, 51, went on the three-day course run by the Ashridge Trust to help develop her skills before being sent to a new posting in Eritrea.
But instead the college described her has having 'serious character flaws'.
Sunday Times reported she was described as 'a bit passive-aggressive' in the feedback given to her boss Nick Pyle.
Mr Pyle's memo of the conversation is said to have noted trainers found Mrs Tanfield 'initially unhelpful' and 'wobbly'.
They 'further commented that when she did participate in the course it was [only] to make an ill-judged comment that got incredulous looks from co-attendees'.
These looks were said to have 'further undermined her confidence; made her withdraw further and become passive-aggressive'.
According to papers lodged at the High Court, the 16 participants were told they could relax and speak freely and they were not being judged or marked.
'A cast-iron guarantee was being given to all participants that their confidentiality and privacy as to their conduct, performance, contributions and participation … would be paramount and respected,' the papers said.
The course took place at the stately home the Ashbridge Trust run near Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, in April last year ahead of Mrs Tanfield's posting which began in May.
Mrs Tanfield is claiming that the damning assessment of her character may have harmed her 24-year diplomatic career and is seeking up to £50,000 in damages.
She claims the comments amounted to calling her 'uncooperative, unhelpful, antisocial, unstable, inept, weak, rude, incompetent and totally devoid of resilience'.
They also suggest that 'her ability and aptitude for her ambassadorial posting was seriously questionable'.
Mrs Tanfield claims that to her 'shock and disbelief' Ashridge gave her boss, Nick Pyle, feedback about how she had done.
She currently lives in the Eritrean capital Asmara with her husband, Matthew Connolly, and her work has included helping to oversee a £10million British aid project.
In the writ, Tanfield alleges libel and slander and alleges that she 'does not recognise' the feedback.
The college are disputing her claim which they say is 'without foundation'.

Vicente Lluch Tamarit (Valencia, 17 de noviembre de 1913-Barcelona, 5 de abril de 1995) fue un guionista, productor y director de cine español.

Biografía

Hijo de familia republicana, luchó en la Guerra Civil Española, estableciéndose en Barcelona al acabar la contienda. En 1941 trabajó como secretario de dirección de Gonzalo Delgrás en La doncella de la duquesa, al mismo tiempo que empezó a dirigir documentales. En 1945 fue ayudante de dirección de Carlos Arévalo en Su última noche. En 1953 redactó su primer guion cinematográfico: El duende de Jerez de Daniel Mangrané. En 1956 dirigió su primer largometraje La espera, sobre los retornados de la División Azul. El fracaso de público de esta película y del documental Concierto en el Prado (1959) lo alejó varios años de la dirección. En 1962 co-escribió Trigo limpio junto a Ignacio Iquino, lo que le facilitó trabajar como ayudante de dirección con Armando Moreno y como director adjunto de la compañía de teatro de Núria Espert, a la que dirigió en El certificado (1970) y Laia (1972). También escribió los guiones de El aprendiz de clown (1967) y Hola... señor Dios (1968), de Manuel Esteban.

También se dedicó a la producción, no obstante tuvo que cerrar la productora por motivos económicos y ello le apartó del mundo del cine, dedicándose a partir de entonces a escribir y dirigir teatro, a la vez que realizaba algunos programas para TVE.

Investors have been hyped since the announcement of the proposed merger of Stratasys (SSYS) and private Objet back in April. The deal promised to create a market leader in the surging 3D printing market.
Stratasys engages in the development, manufacture, marketing, and servicing of three-dimensional (3D) printers, rapid prototyping (RP) systems, and related consumable materials for office-based RP and direct digital manufacturing (DDM) markets.
While the effectiveness of the merged company remains a question, no doubts should exist that the stock has been a homerun since the deal was announced in April. By mid-August, Stratasys had nearly doubled.

UPCLOSE - VICTOR PESCE - 1938-2010
VICTOR PESCE - an Interview with Elizabeth Harris by Nika Sheynberg
Opening Reception - Sunday, August 2, 2-4pm
Artist and critic Mario Naves has written of Victor Pesce: "He paints pictures of simple things, but the pictures he paints are not so simple." The subjects of Pesce's still-life paintings are singular object--bottles, vases, boxes, plates. They are set against mottled expanses of color that can represent horizon and surface. His objects occupy space--they sit, they have gravitas, they ask us to stop and look. The paintings are small, but the scale is both intimate and vast. Pesce creates an atmospheric richness that belies the simple geometries of his objects. His objects are subjects, and they walk their own quiet line of abstraction and representation.

[NS] What were Victor Pesce's ideals, and how did they manifest in his work?
[EH] Victor believed in being a painter and was willing to sacrifice career and family to do so. Painting was a calling to him, like being a priest not a profession.
[NS] There seems to be shift in genre in Pesce's work, from the more abstract paintings in the 1970s and 1980s where you could vividly see the brushstrokes to the more minimalist paintings in the 2000s. What brought about this shift?
[EH] As Victor matured as a painter he put distance between the more abstract and expressionist influences he incurred while as a student. He once said that he got his true education from visiting museums. His painting became more succinct as he painted more freely and struggled less.
Heart of the City, 2006, Oil on canvas, 24 x 36", Courtesy of Elizabeth Harris Gallery
[NS] Can you also tell me about the process behind creating the more recent work?
[EH] Victor loved to compose still-life's. It seemed as he got older he became more sparing in his surface coverage. Gone were the more worked thicker surfaces….perhaps from experience he was able to just get it "right".
[NS] Did Pesce ever consider branching out into any other mediums/genres?
[EH] No, Victor Pesce was a painter...he did make small box like constructions from cardboard that he painted as maquette's for his still life paintings. These were secondary to his paintings and never meant to be shown.
Traffic 2, 2009, Oil on canvas, 12.125 x 16", Courtesy of Elizabeth Harris Gallery
[NS] Do you think that the New York City artist scene and culture had any influence on Pesce's work?
[EH] The museums in the city were a big influence early on and continued to be throughout his life. Perhaps the artist scene did in his early years as he had many artist friends while he lived in New York, but in 1984 he moved to Sharon, CT where he lived and worked the last 26 years of his life.
[NS] Could you also describe the studio space--the organization, the system, the atmospheric flow?
[EH] Victor's studio had beautiful natural light by which he painted which was built in 1986. The general appearance was organized chaos like so many artists studios. He was very organized about his palate, wrapping mixed colors in aluminum foil with twisted ends creating forms that resembled salt-water taffy. He worked on a traditional easel and had many tables that were strewn with his "constructed models". He also had a small daybed near the door to outside where he or the cat sometimes took naps.

Home Is moving to a single polymer the answer?
Advances in Ink Technology for Flexible Packages
SGK's Brand Development Agencies Win Prestigious Packaging Pentawards
Is moving to a single polymer the answer?
by Tim Sykes
The international retailer Marks & Spencer has earned a reputation for proactivity in its sustainability policies. In 2007 the business launched a 100-point sustainability plan, dubbed 'Plan A', which over the ensuing decade has seen simplification of the types of plastic used in its private label packaging, removed microbeads from its products, introduced a charge on plastic carrier bags, and optimised packaging – resulting in a reduction in packaging materials in 140 snacking products. Its latest iteration, Plan A 2025, steps up the ambitions, including the One Polymer Road Map and target that 100 per cent of its packaging is widely recycled. Tim Sykes spoke to M&S's Kevin Vyse (Senior Technologist, Food Packaging, and Circular Economy Lead) about the company's approach to sustainability in packaging and the implications of the latest goals.
Tim Sykes:
How does M&S assess and manage the trade-offs in environmental performance, such as between overall product footprints (including food waste) and the hot question of packaging waste?
Kevin Vyse:
We look holistically at everything we do – across our operation, our supply chains and of course when our customers come to remove packaging and use our products. This includes designing our products and packaging that underpin the creation of a circular economy in the markets we serve.
TS:
Given the current heat on plastics in general, how does M&S perceive and respond to public pressure that might not be informed by a rounded understanding of the role of packaging and unintended consequences?
KV:
We use packaging smartly to ensure products stay fresh for longer. For example, 1gm piece of film can double the life of a cucumber, apples and bananas and 5gms of plastic can ensure that a piece of meat greatly improves the quality of the product. By keeping food fresher for longer, customers throw out less food.
However, we recognise the enormous challenges, that the current approach to plastic use globally is causing and see that we have an important part to play in preventing the leakage of plastic into the environment. We've already taken action in a number of areas – from introducing the 5p carrier bag charge, and removing microbeads from our products significantly ahead of legislation, to reducing the amount of packaging we use. For example, we have saved 75 tonnes of packaging annually by redesigning the packaging for our 140 snacking products and will continue to innovate to optimise our packaging design.
We know there is more to do – that's why we've set a bold target to make all our packaging 'widely recyclable' by 2022, as part of our zero-waste ambition. We're working with policy makers, fellow retailers, manufacturers, local authorities, the recycling and plastics industry, WRAP and the Ellen MacArthur Foundation to develop scalable solutions to prevent the leakage of plastics into the environment.
Is there merit in considering the proposition of replacing plastics wherever this is viable from a holistic point of view?
We are always looking into new ways to package products but our focus is on making the plastic as light as possible whilst improving overall collection and recycling.
M&S branch at La Défense, Paris
Plan A 2025 sets a bold new goal to be a zero waste business across all that we do – our operations, our supply chains and of course when our customers come to remove packaging and use our products. This includes designing our products and packaging to underpin the creation of a circular economy in the markets we serve.
By 2022 all M&S product packaging in the UK that could end up with our customers will be not only 'recyclable', but 'widely recycled'. To achieve this, we will actively collaborate with others to bring about changes in local government recycling policy. By 2022, we will also assess the feasibility of making all M&S plastic packaging from one polymer group, which will help maximise the use of recycled content.
We were both present at the European Bioplastics conference this year, where advantages of bioplastics as a sustainable packaging substrate were discussed in much depth. What do you consider the roadblocks?
Bioplastics are traceable and allow retailers to provide greater visibility of the supply chain. With cheap fossil fuels in the marketplace, scalability has been a challenge. However, we're seeing more organisations taking an interest in the future of biopolymers and this will continue to increase.
The objective of simplifying down to the use of a single polymer is perhaps the most eye-catching aspect of the M&S packaging material strategy. Given your diverse range of products and associated packaging applications, it must be a challenge to find a single polymer that efficiently delivers all of the necessary properties across rigid and flexible formats. You have previously remarked that the selected plastic is likely to be a new structure. What are the prerequisites of this polymer?
We've already worked hard to reduce the number of plastics we use in our food business – and now just use three. Our ambition is to look at the feasibility of making all M&S own-brand plastic packaging from one polymer group, which will help maximise the use of recycled content.
The polymer needs to be able to be blow moulded, extruded or formed. PET already plays a part in our packaging inventory and so it's a close contender for the role as a single. However, there are some exciting developments in the pipeline that may perform better than PET, PEF (polyethylene-furanoate) being one of them. We know that by 2022 there'll be two pilot plants running PEF. We're looking at all these options too.
Is there a role for other stakeholders to play in the specification of the 'super-polymer'? Do you see an opportunity to multiply the impact of simplification with cross-industry implementation?
Absolutely. In fact, we are already collaborating around R&D with a number of groups. This project is a great example of how collaboration is vital for the circular economy.

Increased demand for services and economic opportunities necessitates improvement of revenue generation. In this regard, Kiambu county government sought advisory and technical support from a range of stakeholders including UN-Habitat. In 2014, a joint county-UN Habitat revenue assessment was conducted. Findings of the assessment set forth the direction for subsequent technical support and a program for short and long term interventions. One key suggestion was to establish a dedicated office for revenue management. Centralized management of collections will enable proper monitoring and uniformity across the sub-counties. It is also critical to have a senior professional, serving as a director for this office, to manage the revenue collection process. Furthermore, introduction of "zonation" based land rating was proposed in order to improve the collection of land based taxes. Subsequent simulations conducted indicate a high revenue potential of land taxation in Kiambu, which could cover over 50% of the current expenditures. To take advantage of this potential, administrative reforms, as well as automation, were suggested and partially adopted, and have been a key factor in having a positive impact on revenue collection.


MONTEBELLO—The Armenian Youth Federation-Juniors Montebello chapter formally launched its environmental sustainability special skills program on Saturday with the construction of the local Armenian center's first urban garden bed.
Aptly named "Eco Unger," the program aims to make the Armenian center healthier and more sustainable by combining efforts toward green initiatives currently in progress by the Facilities Committee of the local A.R.F. "Dro" chapter.
"Eco Unger" is spearheaded by AYF Montebello Juniors member Harutyun Demirjian who is a senior at Montebello Applied Technical Center High School. Demirjian prepared the design of the garden bed in Google Sketch up and overlaid it on a Google Map satellite rendering of the Armenian Center. He combined the drawings with a program plan and proposed budget.
To help guide the program, AYF Seniors members Mikael Matossian and Flora Adamian were recruited as program co-directors.
The program aims to serve the interests of Armenia as much as it works to enhance the local community.
AYF Juniors learning the difference between Compost, Landfill ,and Recycling with a hands-on "Eco Unger" educational during a regular Friday night meeting in Montebello.
"Through our lectures, workshops and events we urge Juniors to keep in mind the current state of the Armenian environment and the urgent importance of taking initiative in preserving the homeland," said Adamian who is an undergraduate student at Occidental College.
The AYF Juniors Montebello chapter has already developed plans to launch additional special skills programs in coming months.

Peru: The day Machu Picchu was made known to the outside world
18:59 | Cusco (Cusco region), Jul. 24.
The Inca citadel of Machu Picchu was unknown to the outside world until July 24, 1911, when U.S. explorer Hiram Bingham "discovered" the ruins at the top of the mountain of the same name 108 years ago.
Hiram Bingham was a history professor who was interested in finding the last remains in Vilcabamba area which he had heard about.
Bingham reached Machu Picchu accompanied by a sergeant from the Peruvian Civil Guard surnamed Carrasco.
Once there, they found two families of farmers living in the area: the Recharte and the Alvarez, who had been using the agricultural terraces on the south side of the archaeological complex to harvest their crops and drinking the water of an Inca channel that was still functional.
Pablo Recharte, one of the children living in the area, led Bingham to the "urban zone" of the Inca citadel covered by heavy vegetation.
Bingham was impressed by what he saw and managed to get sponsored by Yale University, the National Geographic Society and the Peruvian Government to immediately initiate the scientific study of the site.
Supported by experts and local workers, Bingham directed archaeological works in Machu Picchu between 1912 and 1915, period in which they cleared the vegetation and excavated Inca tombs.
Machu Picchu was made known to the world in 1913 with the publication of a report about the finding in an article by the National Geographic magazine.
First discoverers
However, Bingham was not Machu Picchu's discoverer, as verified later. History suggests that the first direct references to the discovery of Machu Picchu date back to 1902.
It was reported that Agustin Lizarraga, a Cusco-born tenant, reached the site on July 14, 1902, guided by his fellow inhabitants of Cusco Gabino Sanchez, Enrique Palma, and Justo Ochoa.
The visitors left a graffiti with their names on one of the Incan walls of the "Temple of the Sun," which was later verified by several people and then erased by order of Bingham.
There is information indicating that Lizarraga had already visited Machu Picchu, along with Luis Bejar, a few years earlier, in 1894.
Hiram Bingham's contribution is that he was the first person to acknowledge the importance of the archaeological site, by conducting research in the place with a multidisciplinary team and disclosing his findings, even when these works were carried out using inadequate methods.

Vaser Liposuction considerations - Scott Mosser M.D.
First and foremost, be certain that the surgeon you are consulting with is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Anything less than board certified and you are risking your health and safety.
Secondly, I would ask about how many VASER procedures they have done & how experienced they are with this type of liposuction. Ultimately your final results will boil down to your unique goals, and the skill of your surgeon, so it's important to choose a surgeon with experience in the type of procedure you are considering.
Third, it would be wise to view before & after photos of the surgeon's previous work. Vaser is different from traditional liposuction in that it uses ultrasonic energy to melt fat, which is then removed with a traditional liposuction technique.
It's often used for body contouring procedures and in areas where a small amount of fat needs to be removed… which means it requires more skill from the surgeon. Before and after photos can help you to make an informed decision, coupled with the other suggestions I have listed.
Finally, trust your instincts; did you feel comfortable & well cared for when visiting with this doctor? Was he/she honest & open with information and answers to your questions? Did this seem like someone you can trust? All of those questions are important to ask yourself when consulting with a surgeon, and if you're not 100% comfortable it might be wise to keep looking until you are.
