Pistol Annies' Musical Sisterhood Grows
Trio Performs Live on CMT Artists of the Year Oct. 17 at 8 p.m. ET/PT
by Lauren Tingle 10/12/2018
Many artists move to Nashville for music and never find their forever creative partners. And because of that fact, the Pistol Annies' Miranda Lambert, Ashley Monroe and Angaleena Presley consider themselves incredibly lucky.
The band formed years ago when Lambert and Monroe were jamming late one night and hatched an idea to create the trio with Presley. They shared a mutual obsession with Presley's music and called her up to gauge her interest.
"It's almost like we were sisters in another life," Presley told CMT.com during a recent visit with the band. "There's just this known connective thing that's we've had since the first time we all met. It's only grown."
"I can't believe it worked," Lambert added. "Our manager made us audition for her. We did, and she couldn't deny us."
Throughout making three albums together, their musical sisterhood has only grown stronger. When asked who were the first female artists to believe in them and change their lives forever, they each pointed to one another.
"First of all, some of the female influences that first influenced me, I couldn't just call them up," Lambert explained. "I would say [the first female artist to change my life is] Ashley because she and I became best friends right off the bat when we realized what each other were about, and we were just kindred spirits. She's how I met Angaleena. So, this band is so important to me and for female music and perspective."
"Miranda. Huge time," Monroe added. "That's the only single artist that I could [get to] know. Dolly wrote me a sweet letter, and I met her. But you're in a different world. And so, in this world, [Miranda and I] were both on Columbia and she knew me as a songwriter, but then we were just really good friends. She's just constantly held me up and shined a light on me and what I do."
"That's what we have to do," Lambert said. "That's what we have to do for each other because no one else is going to."
For Presley, her Pistol Annies bandmates and hit-maker Matraca Berg were the first female artists to believe in her when she was an underground musician on the rise.
"Matraca Berg kind of did it for me," she said. "The first time I ever wrote with her it was a great experience, and she became a real champion for me."
The Pistol Annies will premiere a new song from their forthcoming album, Interstate Gospel, on Wednesday's (Oct. 17) CMT Artists of the Year ceremony and concert special, airing live from Nashville's Schermerhorn Symphony Center at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
Lambert is among the 2018 honorees including Carrie Underwood, Maren Morris, Kelsea Ballerini, Little Big Town's Karen Fairchild, Kimberly Schlapman and Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott. Interstate Gospel arrives Nov. 2.

Winter Travel Woes Highlight The Need For Robust ESG Programmes
Jessica Pransky
Every holiday travel season has its unique challenges, but in the US, the obstacles in 2022 were unlike those seen before. With airline travel volume returning to pre-pandemic levels and a "once in a generation" winter storm impacting most of the country, over 12,000 domestic flights were cancelled between December 21st and December 25th. By December 26th, most major airlines were operating like business as usual – with the exception of Southwest Airlines, which continued to cancel more than 60% of its flights for several days.
There have been many explanations of what caused Southwest's failure to rebound from the storms, including Southwest's unique 'point-to-point' business model, postponed operational investments and the use of outdated IT systems. Regardless of the cause, the problems faced by Southwest highlight how important it is for corporates to take advantage of ESG and sustainability and risk management programmes that target the following:
Strategy development and scenario planning.
To mitigate the impacts of extreme weather events, corporates need to develop plans and procedures to ensure business continuity. Southwest's employees were stranded at smaller airports inundated by winter weather, prohibiting the successful operation of many Southwest flights. In contrast, Southwest's competitors have developed better strategies to mitigate impacts of bad weather. JetBlue, for instance, has proactively engaged with airports and developed processes to ensure flight dispatch flexibility, resulting in its ability to recover from severe weather events more quickly.
Prioritizing employee and customer wellbeing.
Reports are circulating of Southwest's employees and customers sleeping on airport floors and being unable to contact Southwest's customer service team to rebook flights. Additionally, unlike many other major airlines in the US, Southwest did not have any agreements in place to allow passengers to fly on competitors' flights. Employees and customers took to social media to describe their frustration and disappointment with how Southwest handled their situations, increasing Southwest's reputational damage.
Governance practices.
In October 2021, Southwest cancelled more than 1,800 flights in a two-day period, resulting in losses of about $75 million; no other major airlines had widespread cancellations during this time. Southwest blamed these cancellations on a combination of bad weather, limited staff and an air traffic control problem. On an October 21st 2021 call with Wall Street analysts, Southwest's then-CEO, Gary Kelly, noted that Southwest had made adjustments to prevent similar meltdowns in the future. However, the problems incurred in December 2022 mirror those of October 2021, highlighting Southwest's failed attempt to resolve the issue, and likely eroding stakeholders' trust.

John Spencer DUNVILLE VC
Name: John Spencer DUNVILLE
D.O.B: 7th May, 1896
D.O.D: 26th June, 1917
Occupation at time of action: Second Lieutenant, 1st (Royal) Dragoons
Épehy, France 24-25 June 1917
On the night of 24-25 June 1917 two parties of Royal Dragoons were sent on a raid to probe enemy lines near Épehy, between Cambrai and St Quentin. The German wire was to be breached by Bangalore torpedoes (explosive charges fixed to the end of a series of tubes and pushed under the obstacle to be removed). The tubes of one torpedo became twisted and Second Lieutenant J S Dunville shielded an NCO with his body as he repaired the damaged joint. He then urged the troops on in their assault, afterwards walking back to the British lines, some 800 yards away, with his left arm practically hanging off. He was taken to Villers-Faucon where it was amputated, but died of his injuries the following day.
For most conspicuous bravery. When in charge of a party consisting of scouts and Royal Engineers engaged in the demolition of the enemy's wire, this officer displayed great gallantry and disregard of all personal danger. In order to ensure the absolute success of the work entrusted to him, 2nd Lt. Dunville placed himself between an N.C.O. of the Royal Engineers and the enemy's fire, and, thus protected, this N.C.O. was enabled to complete a work of great importance. 2nd Lt. Dunville, although severely wounded, continued to direct his men in the wire-cutting and general operations until the raid was successfully completed, thereby setting a magnificent example of courage, determination and devotion to duty, to all ranks under his command. This gallant officer has since succumbed to his wounds.

Now in their fourth year, TheStadiumBusiness Awards are the only awards to recognise the entire spectrum of achievements from across the global stadium industry. Not only will the venues and events of the year be acknowledged but also individuals from behind the scenes and successful local community projects.
Gavin Baldwin, chief executive of Doncaster Rovers FC, who are responsible for running the Keepmoat Stadium is in the running for Executive of the Year, he faces competition Jacques Grobbelaar, CEO of Stadium Management, South Africa, Julian Jenkins, Commercial Director, Cardiff City FC, UK, Peter C. Sullivan, General Manager, University of Phoenix Stadium, USA, Brett Yormark, CEO, Brooklyn Nets and Barclays Center, USA, Marcin Herra, Chairman, PL.2012, Poland / CEO, National Stadium, Poland andThomas Perslund, CEO, Friends Arena, Sweden
Gavin, who was instrumental in Doncaster Rovers taking up the reins at the Keepmoat Stadium, has been a key figure in the sports, leisure and community scene in Doncaster for many years.
John Ryan, chair of Doncaster Rovers said: "We are delighted that Gavin has been shortlisted for this prestigious award. The awards have attracted attention from across the world and there are some very big players in the shortlist.
"Gavin has been a fantastic addition to the Doncaster Rovers family and is making sure that anyone who visits the stadium on a match day or for any other reason has a memorable visit.

The Retribution is an homage to the glory days of the Empire, informed by classical Amarrian design philosophy: if it's strong, sturdy and packs a punch, it's ready for action. What this powerhouse lacks in speed and maneuverability it more than makes up for with its wide range of firepower possibilities and superb defensive ability.
Carthum ships are the very embodiment of the Amarrian warfare philosophy. Possessing sturdy armor and advanced weapon system they provide a nice mix of offense and defense.

Tomb Raider 1 Free Download Full Version PC Game
Download Tomb Raider 1 pc game full version setup, direct link for windows. Tomb Raider 1 is the very first entry in the Tomb Raider series and one of the very first 3D action adventure games.
About Tomb Raider 1
Tomb Raider is a solid, well designed action-adventure game with gameplay that is just the right amount of precise. Tomb Raider 1 excels at making the player feel alone against the nature. The old orginal Tomb Raiders are amoung the hardest out of the series and in my opinion the best set of adventure puzzle games. This game actually does bring back memories, even though they both have way different stories. Amazing puzzle action game with a good story line and atmosphere. This was actually a good game, were more focused on gameplay instead of boobies it was a pretty good series.
Play as Lara Croft searching for lost Artifacts in Ancients Cities. Like Indiana Jones but with Mammary protuberances. A 3D Adventure Story with Relics, Bats, Tigers, Bears, Guns and Bad Girls. This is definitely a gold star game play to re play as an older adult as the same for the rest of the series. The fact that the game is beautiful, has such a gripping environment and protagonist is simply a fantastic coincidence that adds to it's quality. Each level feels like an entirely new challenge, both in terms of gameplay and in terms of fiction, it feels awesome. This game and its first few sequels are indeed timeless classics.
This game is promising, recommend if you love puzzles, good for the brain. Fun, beautiful game from the past that still lives up to today's expectations with gameplay and enjoyment. If you like the Tomb Raider series, a nostalgic trip back to the first game might not be such a bad idea. I'd recommend this game for all the dual-wielding lovers out there.

Mandatory Top 10 of the 2010s: The Best Comic Book Movies of the Decade
Culture / Entertainment
by Nick Fisher Dec 26th, 2019
It's the end of the decade, which means we get to look back on all the good things the 2010s brought, especially in the comic book movie genre. In this top 10, we'll look back on the best comic book movies of this decade — a risky thing to do, considering just how many classics there actually were, and how many angry nerds are out there just waiting to unleash their wrath upon our choices. To get all that hate out the way then, we'll at least confirm off the bat that neither the brilliant Captain America: Winter Soldier, nor latecomers like Joker, even make this list. Boo-hoo, get over it. Now let's dive in!

Sisters doin' it for themselves: The Top 5 Female Superheroes
10. 'Black Panther' (2018)
This movie didn't just rock the film industry, but American socio-politics as well. If #OscarsSoWhite was a clarion call for the frustrations that African-Americans and other minorities rightly felt with their lack of opportunity in Hollywood, then Black Panther was the answer. Critics may have a fair point in suggesting it's just another Marvel "origin" movie, but the performances of Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, and the rest of the cast elevated the film beyond its mere parts. Plus, it also brought us one of the most beautifully-realized sci-fi utopias ever put to film with Wakanda.
9. 'Deadpool' (2016)
Rebellious, crass and disreputable in almost every way, Deadpool wasn't just a great superhero movie; it was a triumph for modern action cinema -- and bad taste. Sure, its plot was simple and a number of its supporting characters were rather forgettable. But it's fourth-wall-breaking and relentless toilet humor added up to one deliriously absurd crazy train. Ryan Reynolds and director Tim Miller couldn't have put this project out at a better time, either. With so many po-faced, straight-talking Avengers about, the movie world needed an antihero as entertaining as they were contemptuous -- and Deadpool fit that need like a middle-finger-raised glove.

8. 'Wonder Woman' (2017)
Among the mess that was Batman v Superman, there was a little glimmer of hope that a cameo of a certain superheroine could be the catalyst for an improvement in DC's movie fortunes. And, for a short while, Wonder Woman was exactly that -- at least until the disappointing Justice League threw a wrench in the works. All the same, with Gal Gadot as a perfect cast for Diana Prince, and that kick-ass Lasso of Truth at her side, there's plenty of hope for the future -- especially if her upcoming outings remain as visually impressive as this one.

7. 'Thor: Ragnarok' (2017)
Ragnarok is easily the best film that Marvel's Thor saga has offered so far -- which might not be saying much, considering how easily the first two films have become forgotten in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's rapid evolution. But all those Avengers movies and ensuing tangled plotlines did pay off because it meant we finally got a full-on metal album of an adventure with everyone's favorite Norse god. For everything it promised -- gladiatorial duels between Thor and Hulk, Jeff Goldblum as a villain, etc. -- Ragnarok delivered on every level, making it an all-action classic of galactic proportions.
6. 'The Avengers: Endgame' (2019)
All journeys have a destination, no matter where they wind. And with Avengers: Endgame, it was the end of the road for a sizable number of Marvel's best-loved characters. Even with the leaks, we still held our breath, gripped our seats and maybe even cried a little as they vanished from our screens -- not into dust, but for good this time. Granted, it was pretty obvious how the conclusion to Thanos' rebalance of the universe was going to go, but the how still mattered, and Endgame's three-hour roller coaster left us more than satisfied (if a tiny bit depressed). But at least it gave us Professor Hulk, which is not a bad thing.
5. 'Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 1' (2014)
Yes, we know it had that soundtrack. But you know what else the first Guardians outing had? Soul. Creativity. An unabashed willingness to embrace the weird sci-fi that the original comics reveled in. It had one unforgettable character that could say so much with just one repeated line, and it's also cinematic proof that Dave Bautista could act just as well as he wrestled. Most importantly, it was the kind of wild ride that the Marvel Cinematic Universe desperately needed at the time of its release. Expect this interstellar epic to carry the MCU's fortunes well into its next phase.
4. 'Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse' (2018)
It was a tough choice leaving out both of Marvel's Spider-Man outings. Luckily, Sony Pictures' Oscar-winning animated masterpiece was just so utterly fantastic that it would have been a crime to omit it from this list. Everything about Into the Spider-Verse just lives and breathes our modern-day zeitgeist, from its star-studded soundtrack to its bodacious art style. It also helped that the movie was an absolute riot from start to finish, introducing Miles Morales and a host of other Spider-likes from across Marvel's alternate timelines to a mainstream, movie-going audience.

3. 'Captain America: Civil War' (2016)
It might have had Captain America's name alone in the title, but Civil War was an Avengers movie in every other way. It absolutely delivered on the hype too, ushering the MCU's next phase with the hugely anticipated debuts of Spider-Man, Black Panther and Ant-Man. Civil War felt both grand in scale as well as in cast, but it coped with its load effortlessly, delivering on all the suspense built by Winter Soldier, and sparing us the overt CGI that Age of Ultron bored us with. Not to mention it packs some of the best action scenes ever put in a Marvel film. What's not to love about that whole airport sequence?
2. 'Logan' (2017)
Before Logan's release, Wolverine's status in the X-Men movie franchise was in a pretty questionable state. Beleaguered by some frankly average solo movies, and rising criticism among die-hard fans that Hugh Jackman wasn't right for the role, 20th Century Fox needed to give movie-goers compelling reasons to go watch the final chapter in his own trilogy. They found them by removing the franchise's PG restrictions and embracing the "Old Man Logan" continuity of the original comic books. The result? An unnervingly violent, yet undeniably emotional film classic, and a poignant send-off for Marvel's most iconic antihero. It even beats out First Class and Days of Future Past as the best X-Men movie, and that's saying something.
1. 'The Avengers: Infinity War' (2018)
This was the Game of Thrones of Avengers movies. If you didn't feel at least one ounce of shock or disbelief as Thanos gazed peacefully over the forest vista -- having succeeded in murdering half the Marvel universe -- before the credits hit, then you simply have no business watching movies, period. This film made mad money, inspired speculation about Endgame, and cunningly dismantled years of MCU storytelling.

PARKERSBURG - A band of Confederate sympathizers was the scourge of the region during the early years of the Civil War.
The guerrilla fighters known as the Moccasin Rangers formed in Calhoun County, spreading fear and terror and intimidating those who sided with the Union, according to George Hall of Parkersburg, the author "Civilian War in West Virginia, the Moccasin Rangers."
Cloaked in secrecy and operating behind the lines, among the most famed of the operatives was Nancy Hart of Roane County, a spy for the Confederacy. They pillaged towns, including Ripley, burnt Sutton and killed those siding with the Union.
Then they were called bushwhackers. Today they would be called terrorists.
Most Virginians in western Virginia generally supported secession from Virginia, but feared retribution from the rangers, Hall said. Instead of receiving protection from the Confederacy, they were protected by the Union, he said.
The band operated from 1861 to 1862 when the Union Army, tired of the atrocities committed, issued orders that those who were caught were to be summarily executed. Among the atrocities were a decapitation murder.
Rangers were not part of an organized military unit and therefore raised questions of their status as combatants and their protections under military law.
"The Union policy came to be to just kill them," Hall said.
The book was published by Wasteland Press of Shelbyville, Ky. It is available at Borders, amazon.com, book stores in Marietta and from the publisher. Hall, a minister at the Parkersburg Christian Church, spent several years researching the Moccasin Rangers and coincided the publication of the book with the Civil War sesquicentennial.
Hall has been asked to speak in May in a series on the war organized by the state West Virginia Division of Culture and History.

College Entrepreneurs
How Entrepreneurs Can Balance School and Business
September 9, 2015 4 min read
Although many would-be entrepreneurs may think it's best to wait on their budding business idea until they graduate, some savvy entrepreneurs are jumping into business while still in school. How do they manage both?
Figure out your priorities.
While some student entrepreneurs try to have it all (a high GPA and a profitable business), Stephanie Shyu, co-founder of AdmitSee.com, a peer-to-peer social network for college students to share advice about applying to school, campus fit and career opportunities, says something always has to give. "Running a business is, at a minimum, a full-time class if not a full-time job," she says.
Because Shyu saw her company as a potential career path after law-school graduation, she prioritized it over, and sometimes at the expense of, her academic performance. "How you decide to allocate your time should be driven and informed by whether you see a future career with the business and your post-grad plans," says Shyu, who encourages student entrepreneurs to remember why they're at school in the first place: "To best position yourself and identify opportunities that will help launch a career."
"You can always take time off from school to pursue a truly unique and viable business idea, but the reverse isn't always true," she says.

Create a schedule to manage your time effectively.
As a student, you have the luxury of downtime which you will never have as a working professional to use to pursue a business idea. Nick Porfilio, CEO of Saveful.com, a tech startup that helps users save money on a range of products, designed his schedule so he could focus on either school or business at one given time, taking classes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday only, leaving the other days of the week to focus on the business.
Take advantage of student discounts.
Being a student also gives you access to free or discounted services. Porfilio was able to get a free operating system and office software simply because he was a student. "One class gave me a $100 credit to a cloud-computing service and another gave a license to expensive design software," he says. Porfilio also received free printing and access to survey software, as well as free access to virtually expensive data sets.
Make use of university resources.
As a student, you have access to a vast network that you will never see again in your life. Expert faculty members, academic courses and student organizations are all at your fingertips, so take advantage while you can. Professors often make great advisors and can be well-connected, helping to make introductions to contacts who can help grow your business.

If you're looking for co-founders, getting involved with student organizations can help you meet like-minded people. School can also be a great place to get some startup capital. Many universities hold business-plan competitions that dole out prize money or can help connect you with potential investors. Shyu and her partner entered a competition during her last year of grad school which ended up netting them their first investor.
Dylan Osborn, CEO of NiLi, a nightlife app, says school gave him the opportunity to come face-to-face with seasoned entrepreneurs who provided critical advice and introduced students to influential guest speakers. "I was lucky enough to have Elon Musk as my commencement speaker for graduation and he gave us some bits of advice," he says. One tip Musk gave his graduating class was to take advantage of youth and the opportunity it provides for you to try something huge and fail.
Integrate your business into your schoolwork.
Who says school and business have to be separate entities? Taking courses that support your business is a great way to gain the knowledge and expertise you need to be a more effective business operator. As a law student, Shyu took business school courses in entrepreneurship which helped her draft her business plan.
Porfilio says he found ways to use schoolwork to help his business as much as possible. "I did a for-credit independent study one quarter where I was able to do research on the business case for the company I was looking to start," he says. "Another quarter I took on a project-based entrepreneurship class in which I was able to design and build a prototype of the product I wanted to develop." What can be better than getting a school credit for researching and starting your own business?

Escape Kit: The Mysterious Murder review
Published by Escape Goats on 31/05/2020 31/05/2020
A mysterious escape room kit for families and adults which turns your home into a giant murder party. Download and print the kit to begin an investigation that shook the Thompson's Family! On Sunday, November 15, at around 9pm, Berkshire police received an alarming call from an anonymous guest who stayed at the Thompson's Mansion where the wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Thompson took place. Mary Thompson was found dead in her room, cause of death unknown, with no signs of break-in.
Play at home (based in France)

Completed in around 50 minutes
6/10Mileage may vary on this one! The company is called Escape Kit for a reason – everything you need to host your own escape experience exists within the pack that Escape Kit electronically deliver. From invites to those whimsical cards some games give you to hold up for your victory/failure photo, everything is present and accounted for. So, on that hand, it's really cool. The flipside to this is where we suffered – if you're not going to play the game in the spirit that it's intended, its a fairly weak offering. That is to say, the way the puzzles are presented, they really use the ancillary materials as a crutch. Given that we played this from three different locations, all we interacted with was the core game elements and from that perspective, it didn't feel as complete as other play at home games have done. Fully recognise that some of that falls on us for not playing it the way that it was designed to be but obviously, we can't right now and even if we could, I'm not sure we'd go to the bother of going all out with it. It's something to bear in mind, this game is very dependent on you fully embracing the concept of transforming your home into an escape room for an hour or so. If you don't, the experience rings slightly hollow.
Daiman
7/10The Mysterious Murder is a print at home puzzle game from French-based Escape Kit. They specialise in family-friendly escape experiences, but I'm not sure that this murder theme, albeit quite mild, is particularly suitable for children! You must all be in the same location to play this, and you need a double sided printer. The PDF materials are well designed in a childlike style. Either one person becomes the host and sets everything up, or everyone can play if you're careful to avoid the answers. You're also sent bonus printable items like funny messages and awards, and there's a YouTube playlist to soundtrack your game, although the link to it didn't work. These all aid in making the game more immersive and experiential.
6/10[score only]
4/10Speaking to my earlier comments about the theming, this line of thought extends to the puzzles too. They are very simplistic, to the point that overthinking is entirely possible and solving them wasn't particularly rewarding. Again, I'm willing to concede that some part of that is down to us playing it in a stripped-down manner when it clearly isn't meant to be engaged with in such a fashion. But, I also cannot see us viewing them any differently if we were in a dressed room. It would definitely help but fundamentally it feels as though the game contents are underdeveloped, lost in the noise of the supplemental material. As though the overarching experience has been designed first and the actual gameplay shoehorned in around it.
4/10I didn't know what to expect because Escape Kit's website is quite childlike, but The Mysterious Murder is quoted as being difficult and suitable for older children and adults. It turned out to be a very easy game that I feel is suited for older children with a bit of help from their parents, or escape room novices. The puzzles rarely challenged me, with some taking mere seconds to solve. The reason we still took around 50 minutes to complete this was because of the pill puzzle which I still don't understand the logic behind, and the fact we were all in different locations so had to play directly from the PDF's which were designed for printing only. For the right audience, the puzzles are fine, but I was left wanting.
4/10With the puzzles being extremely simplistic, the game itself wasn't terribly fun to play. Flow was non-existent and it didn't feel cohesive as a whole. I think there's potential for sure, I genuinely love the idea of a party-in-a-pack and a fair bit of fun could be had with it. But the game itself needs to be worked on. There's no denying that Escape Kit are on the right track with the overall concept, the gameplay itself just needs some development. Spend a bit more time beefing up the puzzles and this could be more of a contender.
4/10This game confuses me. The visuals are for kids, the gameplay is for older kids with the help of adults, the theme is for adults and the website makes out it is for both families and adults. It seems they are trying to cater for everyone when they just need to pick a target audience and fully embrace it. I was disappointed by the simplicity of the puzzles, considering they class them as difficult. Unless they just mean it's difficult for children? Although it wasn't for me, I can see The Mysterious Murder being a fun family activity to bring everyone together, as long as the parents don't mind the murder theme! They provide you with add-on items like birthday messages to print out, so it would be good for parties.
3/10You know, it's only been a few weeks but I'm suffering by being the only member of this site who has a printer. Printing I don't mind but cutting out is the Devil's work! Admittedly, for a remote game, there was only one part that we really needed to print out but other bits are recommended otherwise you won't be able to avoid seeing answers throughout your time playing! Which is actually a side-note – this game needs to be prepared by someone who isn't actually playing or I can't see how they can avoid spoiling the majority of the game for themselves. That part of the design needs some thought… But, anyway, for the price that it is, you effectively have to supply your own paper and do the hard work of cutting everything out which would get tiresome very quickly! Long-winded way of getting to my point; for the cost, you still have to bring a lot more effort to get it to the state that it's intended to be in. Yes, electronic delivery obviously has the benefit of being instant but, to my mind, the price is too high considering all of that plus the fact that the game itself is very basic. At half the price that it's currently offered at, the proposition is more appealing though still with all of its flaws. I do completely understand that a lot of work has gone into piecing together all the elements but, as a complete package, I don't think it's a competitive product.
4/10Confusingly, their website shows two different prices for this game. Although some parts say $22, it's actually $20 per team currently. But even at $20, it's the most expensive play at home game that I've played so far, despite it not actually containing that much. There's just some PDF's of images and simple puzzles that you need to print, cut and glue at your own expense. An immersive house party escape kit that turns your house into a crime scene is a great idea and with some tweaks and in the right hands, it could do really well. But this was too simplistic for me, and I felt the subject matter didn't align with the target market.

Homeowners Grateful To Be Alive After Fire Destroys 3 Homes

Home Owners Grateful To Be Alive After Fire Destroys 3 Homes
TULSA, Okla. -
Several people are homeless just before Christmas after strong winds caused a duplex fire to spread to other homes in a south Tulsa neighborhood.
The high winds made the fire spread quickly through the duplex buildings but people who lived inside said they were grateful to be alive. Ash and charred bits are all that remains of some homes near 81st and Delaware. One duplex caught fire then 40-mile-per-hour winds ignited two others yesterday.
"The wind was whipping the fire as quickly as possible," said Lt. Tim Ingram with the Tulsa Fire Department. "It could have been much worse and spread down the block if they hadn't gotten a good stop on it."
TFD Investigates After Fire Destroys 3 Homes
Neighbors said the unit burned down a year ago and renovations were almost done when it sparked again. Don Medford is one of the victims who said the smoke was so black it felt deadly.
"I was in my living room watching television, thank God I was home," Medford said. "I got a dog and a cat, if they were in the house with me gone, I don't think they would have survived this."
He said he's thankful he made it out and things can be replaced. His next-door neighbor LaVonda Robinson, a wife, and mother of 3, said she was almost home when the fire started because her 8-year-old son had beat her there by a couple of minutes, but he made it out safe.
"I drove through the smoke and pulled into my driveway and jumped out looking for my baby," she said.
She lost everything, including the presents under her Christmas tree, but she did find a silver lining after her dad passed away this year.
"I lost my dad earlier this year," Robinson said. "Thank god the only thing we were able to pull out of this fire is all of my memories of him."
"I can create new memories with my kids and my husband because I still have them," she said.
Fire investigators are trying to figure out how this fire started.

#Kindflash fights hunger with healthy snacks

#Kindflash fights hunger with healthy snacks If you've always wanted to be part of a flash mob and social justice all at once – this Sunday's your chance. Check out this story on cincinnati.com: http://cin.ci/1yhsv0I

If you've always wanted to be part of a flash mob and social justice all at once – this Sunday is your chance.
In its self-proclaimed #Kindflash event, volunteer group Random Acts of Kindness will be distributing "Goody Goody Bags" across Over-the-Rhine and West End neighborhoods.
The key? Healthy snacking. No Doritos in these goody bags.
Random Acts founder Liz Wu says the concept is simple: Goody Goody Bags are hand-decorated lunch sacks containing fresh fruit, granola bars, nuts and other healthy snack items, which will be distributed in neighborhoods where people have limited access to nutritious foods and/or limited knowledge about healthy snack choices.
This is Wu's local answer to the problem of healthy food options available to lower-income and poor families – a problem so systemic in America that National Geographic tackled the topic last year with massive reporting that explored the question: Why are people malnourished in the richest country on earth?
What exactly is #Kindflash? "Spontaneous and coordinated acts of kindness with the intention of improving lives and creating opportunities for people to come together and interact," Wu says. "The larger group is called Random Acts of Kindness. When we get together for an event – or even just doing something one-on-one, we call it #Kindflash."
This is the second go-round. In February, the first #Kindflash drew over 100 participants. Volunteers collected donations of warm clothes over a 10-day period and over 50 people distributed some 2,000 items throughout 35 Greater Cincinnati neighborhoods in one weekend.
#Kindflash's first event, this past February. (Photo: Provided/Random Acts of Kindness, Facebook)
"In 10 days, it went from just a whimsical idea with a few friends to, 'Wow, there is really something to this,' " Wu said.
"There was such momentum from that event," she said, "that we are now doing a monthly outreach on second Sundays, focusing on the distribution of healthy snacks in a different neighborhood each month."
On Sunday, project Goody Goody Bags will involve volunteers stuffing anywhere from 120 to 240 brown-paper lunch sacks – decorated by local artists – with healthy snacks (nuts, fruit, granola bars) then hand-delivering them to anyone on the street in need. The bags will also include a flier of "fun facts" on nutrition/wellness.
So far, Wu and the Random Acts of Kindness group have received a corporate donation from the company KINDSnacks: 20 cases of granola bars. "That should help throughout the summer," Wu said, adding that individual volunteers have also begun to sign up on the Facebook page, committing to bring fruit, granola and the like. But there is still more to be done.
"We still need people to donate either food or time – or both," Wu said.
"The plan is to pack the bags in front of Park+Vine on Main Street at 2 p.m., deliver them in teams on Main, Walnut, Vine, Race and Elm streets and then meet in Findlay Market, distributing any that are left," Wu says. "Anyone is welcome to join us!"
Liz Wu believes the time for kindness is now. Whimsy welcome.
To get involved:
Sign up at the Random Acts of Kindness Facebook page. Then go to the Goody Goody Bags Event and join.
Show up: Sunday, April 12th at 2:00 PM in front of Park and Vine at 1202 Main St.

Frank Cogliano Communicates With Computers Of The World
The Brooklyn composer / producer fuses electronic & organic sounds on his album.
Frank Cogliano melds man and machine on his edgy and experimental electronica album Computers Of The World — showcasing today on Tinnitist.
Cinematic, shape-shifting and wholly immersive, the latest release from the Brooklyn-based composer and producer delivers an adventurous tour-de-force that belongs on a hard drive along with artists like Boards of Canada, Tycho, Kaytranada, Brian Eno and Aphex Twin. Packed with short, stylish and sophisticated vignettes that find Cogliano combining styles, sounds, sources and settings in unique ways, it sounds like the product of another world. Which it is, in a way.
"I wrote this album in the weeks leading up to the lockdown in New York City in January – February 2020, the last moments before the world had changed," Cogliano explains. "And I was thinking about my early years recording on four-track Tascam and a Yamaha keyboard and a Squier Strat, and thinking about that time, when consumer computers and dial-up internet were shaping and about to change the world. So I am digesting all of this nostalgia and finding sounds from old VHS recordings and experimenting with video art on an old Sony TV with an analog video synth and I came up with this album."
Computers Of The World is "a mashup of all my different interests, with the only overall rule that it has to sound good to me, whether it jumps from genre to genre or not," he contiues. "Playing with the conversation between technology, analog circuitry and organic instruments, in a way that is pleasant for me to listen to. A soundtrack to a film goes through many moments and styles, so I imagine the album in a similar way, creating a general vibe without being boring. I find single genre albums to be painfully boring.
"One last thing about the timing, many people are wondering why I didn't finish the songs, or why I have so many. They are all finished ideas, though many of them are short, because I am also structuring it in a way that reflects the current state of our collective attention span, which is extremely fast and extremely short. I tried to compress as much emotion and musicality in as short a period of time that I could."
Cogliano lives in New York City. He composes and plays guitar, guitarviol, bass, piano, drums, banjo, pedal steel guitar, and many other traditional and non-traditional instruments. He has produced and composed music that has been featured in Oscar-winning films and critically acclaimed TV series. He has transcribed and recreated the lost score of Stanley Kubrick's Barry Lyndon and directed a live performance of the film. He has collaborated with Camila Cabello on advertising campaigns. Before focusing on producing, he began his career as a session guitarist in New York with members of the SNL house band at the same time touring internationally with his band Sugarbad.

Home > Shows > Unarius & Mars/ Strange Stories
Date Thursday - September 18, 2014
Host George Noory
Guests David Reynolds, Jim Harold
In the first half of the program, teacher for the Unarius Educational Foundation, David Reynolds, discussed the work of Unarius co-founder Ernest Norman and the insights he revealed about Mars. According to Reynolds, Norman was a profound genius who possessed a spiritual intelligence that "we have never seen before on planet Earth" as well as extreme clairvoyant abilities. Using these skills, he claimed, Norman entered into communication with the leader of an alien race that lives underground on the Red Planet. Via a series of 33 astral trips to Mars, Norman was able to document the history and life of these ETs, sharing these revelations in the 1955 book The Truth About Mars.
Based on the writings of Norman, the Martian race are a "peace-loving people" that fell victim to an astronomical catastrophe around 100,000 years ago when a sun-like star in a distant galaxy exploded and hurled debris towards their planet. Having 200 years to prepare for the oncoming onslaught, the Martians decided to move their entire civilization underground in order to survive. Although fierce sand storms occasionally reveal aspects of their subterranean structures, Reynolds contended that "they have very cleverly hidden their society" because "they don't want anybody to come, uninvited, to their world." Over the course of his appearance, Reynolds also shared insights into the nature of Martian society as well as how the history of Mars connects to Earth and the human race.
In the latter half, Jim Harold, host of The Paranormal Podcast, shared some of his latest stories from the world of the strange and unexplained. He likened the appeal of scary stories to riding a rollercoaster, because "you can go on a trip and have this thrill, but you know you are safe." He also observed that people who have frightening experiences often want to share their story with others because they usually hear a chilling tale in return and, thus, feel more comfortable with what happened to them. During his appearance, Harold detailed accounts of spooky situations involving Ouija boards, haunted houses, out-of-body experiences, and contact from loved ones on 'the other side.'
One bizarre tale featured a statue of the mythical god Pan seemingly coming to life. The experiencer, who was three years old at the time, recalled that her family had a heavy, two-foot-tall statue of the mischievous being which was placed on the fireplace in their home. Late one night, the child was awakened by commotion in her living room and spotted the now-animated statue furiously digging through her mother's purse. When it saw the toddler, Harold said, it chased her down the hallway into her parent's bedroom. While her parents dismissed the incident at first, they later discovered the mother's purse sprawled all over the floor and the statue knocked over in the kitchen. "What moved that statue and got that stuff out of that purse, I'd like to know," Harold laughed.

Decision Day for Scotland
After months of heated debate, Scottish citizens took to the polls on Thursday to vote on a historic referendum which would determine whether the country would leave the United Kingdom and become an independent nation or remain part of the UK. Drawing an enormous 85% voter turnout and leading to a long night of counting, the final results of the vote saw the 'No' contingent prevail and, thus, Scotland will stay a member of the United Kingdom. Complete coverage of the landmark vote can be found at BBC News.

You've really found your niche Zed. Great work.
Louise is a fast worker and I like the action shot showing her speed!
Your natural colours vessel is beautiful – it is tricky to work when you start and stop – and I'm really liking the finished pink one with its nuno pattern.
It's great you're able to to advance your class to resists. It really opens up a whole new level in felting. I'm sure they are enjoying it. It looks as if Louise has really taken to it. I look forward to seeing the finished pieces and what you decide for the next level.
It's really cool how none of them are fazed at all and just try things. I suppose not being in Facebook groups or forums they're not subject to people's opinions on what 'works' or what is 'easy' or 'hard', and we're all about playing and experimenting and learning by seeing how things turn out.
Visually interesting and well done. Resists are a wonderful addition to felting.
I like Cheviot, I've never had a problem with it felting. There could be well over a hundred years breeding difference between same breeds I suppose, which would make a big difference. I wish I knew more about sheep history.
Looks like they are progressing well Zed. Must be because of the good teacher 🙂 I hope the fundraising effort works out for you.
I love the natural wool vessel.
Luckily there are lots of non-profit groups in the centre so I'm sure I'll have lots of help if I need to do bids.
Regarding the funding Zed, I wonder if your local Co-operative Society does the same sort of scheme that ours does. They support local community groups, I am treasurer for our local adult special needs group and we've had a couple of successful applications which were well worth applying for. The paper work was very straight forward and easy to complete. Might be worth a look.
I'll look into it. I know Skipton Building Society have a 'grass roots' fund to apply for too. I think we need (or I need) to become a non profit organisation and get a bank account before we apply for stuff, so I just have to remember to do that.


10. Efficient Markets Hypothesis For each of the following scenarios, discuss whether profit opportunities exist from trading in the stock of the firm under the conditions that (1) the market is not weak form efficient, (2) the market is weak form but not semistrong form efficient, (3) the market is semistrong form but not strong form efficient, and (4) the market is strong form efficient.
a. The stock price has risen steadily each day for the past 30 days.
b. The financial statements for a company were released three days ago, and you believe you've uncovered some anomalies in the company's inventory and cost control reporting techniques that are causing the firm's true liquidity strength to be understated.
c. You observe that the senior management of a company has been buying a lot of the company's stock on the open market over the past week.

Adams-Onís Treaty
The Adams-Onís Treaty of 1819 (formally titled the Treaty of Amity, Settlement, and Limits Between the United States of America and His Catholic Majesty, and also known as the Transcontinental Treaty of 1819, and sometimes the Florida Purchase Treaty) was a historic agreement between the United States and Spain that settled a border dispute in North America between the two nations. The treaty was the result of increasing tensions between the U.S. and Spain regarding territorial rights at a time of weakened Spanish power in the New World. In addition to granting Florida to the United States, the treaty settled a boundary dispute along the Sabine River in Texas and firmly established the boundary of U.S. territory to the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. It also had the effect of ending the first and paving the way for the second of the Seminole Wars in Florida.
4 Primary sources
The treaty was negotiated by John Quincy Adams, the Secretary of State under U.S. President James Monroe, and the Spanish foreign minister Luis de Onís. In the agreement, the U.S. paid $5 million for the territorial rights of Florida and relinquished its claims of parts of Texas west of the Sabine and other Spanish areas. The treaty was concluded on February 22, 1819 in Washington, D.C. and ratifications were exchanged and the treaty proclaimed on February 22, 1821.
While Spain at first refused to budge any border in favor of the US, Spain had been forced to negotiate because it was losing its hold on its colonial empire, with its western colonies primed to revolt. Specifically, while fighting outlaws and Native Americans in US-controlled Georgia during the First Seminole War, Andrew Jackson had pursued them into Spanish Florida, but at the same time, he attacked and captured Spanish forts in Florida with absolutely no prerogative, thus threatening war with Spain and causing national controversy. Some of Monroe's cabinet demanded Jackson's immediate dismissal, but Adams realized that it put the US in a favorable diplomatic position. Although Spanish power in the New World had long been in decline, Jackson's attacks had exposed how weak Spain was in the New World to the US, Latin American revolutionaries, and Europe. Taking an aggresive stance, Adams was able to negotiate very favorable terms.
In its weakened state, it was fairly certain to lose the land to the United States following the Louisiana Purchase in 1804. Spain had questioned the validity of the purchase, stating that France had no right to sell Louisiana because such a sale went against the agreements in the Treaty of San Ildefonso, but there was also much discussion about the extent of the area that the United States had bought from France.
The Spanish had a very restricted view of Louisiana, considering it to comprise the west bank of the Mississippi and the city of New Orleans. The United States on the other hand claimed that the land they bought extended all the way to the Rio Grande and the Rocky Mountains, thus encompassing much of Spain's colonies of Texas and New Mexico.
There was also disagreement between the two countries about West Florida.
East and West Florida.
Under the terms of the treaty, Spain sold its territories of East and West Florida to the United States. The U.S. agreed to assume financial claims by residents against the Spanish government.
In the west, the boundary was determined to be the Sabine River from the Gulf of Mexico to the 32nd parallel, then north to the Red River to its headwaters, then north to the Arkansas, then north to the 42nd parallel.
Spain gave up its claims to the Oregon Country north of this boundary. For the United States this meant that its territory now extended far west from the Mississippi, all the way to the Pacific Ocean. For Spain it meant that it kept its colonies in Texas, and also kept a buffer zone between its colonies in California and New Mexico and the US territories. Adams considered this to be his greater achievement, as he foresaw that Oregon would allow trade with the Orient and economic power in the Pacific.
The treaty was not ratified until 1821. The independence of Mexico allowed a reopening of the controversy regarding the border with Texas, during which the United States claimed that the Sabine and Neches rivers had been switched on maps, thus attempting to claim more land. As a consequence, the eastern boundary of Texas was not firmly established until the independence of the Republic of Texas in 1836.

I didn't know if I'd like it, but I do. I especially like that it folds up so easily, so I can take it with me on my road trips. Been using it now for 2 years and haven't had a complaint. My joints feel better since I stopped running on the treadmill. GREAT product!
My name is Thomas C Jr. My age is 70 years old. I bought the vibra machine about 6 years ago. I work on the machine every day for 10 minutes. I cannot believe how good and strong I feel for my age. People tell me I look like I'm 55 years old. I highly recommend the vibra machine for every one young and older ones.
Meet Ruth, who lost 3 dress sizes! Nice to see you again this year.
Well you were right!!! Tyrus & I love the Vibra Therapy machine. I am fixing up my workout room ,in my salon, and wonder if you have some posters I can get to put on the walls, or any type of advertising suggestions. I am very interested in selling Vibra Therapy. I think after my clients use it they will want to take one home. I don't know if you have a representative in my area …nor-cal Reno/Neveda but I would love to apply for the job. Tyrus & I could even do a few shows. I have been getting some great feedback from chiropractors and an acupuncturist, my own body its already changing. I LOVE IT. Cant wait to find out about your other great products. Your website is really well done. Let me know Thanks for your time.
I have to let you know, that without a doubt, this was the very best purchase I made last year. I purchased the Vibra machine in June 2013. My husband has had a life long problem with BM. Within five days he has been regular ever since! If he has to go away on business, within two days he starts to have a problem again. As soon as he gets home he heads straight for the machine., and in two days he is back to normal. It has changed his life. He is much happier than he ever was. He has also lost ten pounds.
I use the machine religiously too, and it has helped my arthritis incredibly. I know longer have all the shoulder pain, from 30 Years of doing hair as a Hairdresser. I have lost four pounds. All we use it is ten minutes a day. Everyone can do ten minutes. It's so easy, with such incredible results. Thank you so so much.
As a psychologist who worked for years to help people lead healthy lifestyles I certainly was not pleased when my doctor told me, at age 63 and 215 pounds, that I had crossed the line and now met the clinical definition of "diabetic". That was more than 35 pounds and 2 years ago. I decided to take care of myself . . . diet, exercise, and education. It was eighteen months ago that I bought my "Platinum Ultra Vibration" equipment from Health N Beauty Connection. And I began a daily routine of ten minutes a day using whole body vibration as my "gym" of choice. And I can tell you this. I sleep well, I feel terrific, my friends tell me I look great, and I look forward to stepping up on my machine every day - the easiest "exercise" I've ever done in my life. And this past summer when these two pictures were taken my 3 month running average blood sugar level (A1C) was an enviable 5.7 !!! As you see . . . I'm on top of the world. I highly recommend full body vibration, and am very pleased with my Platinum Ultra Vibration choice. I highly recommend this for a multitude of reasons.
Worth every penny! I suffer from Sjogrens syndrome and chronic low back pain from ruptured L5 disc. I was up to 4 tramadol a day and drank way too much alcohol just to dull the pain. I also used a TENS unit during the day and was considering getting surgically implanted TENS unit. The Vibra therapymhas changed my life. I got it on 8/18/14 and decided to stop all pain pills and alcohol. Within a week I felt good enough to start using my elliptical each morning for 30 minutes then Vibra therapy. The next week I started hikong with my dogs in a rugged state park. I have nit had alcohol or any pain pills since 8/18 (it's 9/23 today) I made a 1000 mile one day drive a few days ago and other day and did not have any back pain.
I cannot say enough good about this machine. It has given me my life back. I use it on highest setting in morning and during day. At night I use lower settings prior to bed and have not had any restless legs and sleep better.
Thanks for the free delivery and I got it in less than a week after I met Rossi at the convention. She showed my wife and I how to use it and we haven't gone a day without using it. Thanks Rossi, we love it!

NZ: Net Cast on Fish Farming in Firth of Thames
14 August 2008, at 1:00am
NEW ZEALAND - The net is being cast to see if fish farming can be introduced in the Firth of Thames, but a number of regional councillors say it could do more harm than good.
Currently the Waikato Regional Coastal Plan only allows shellfish farming, but the wheels for a plan change were yesterday set in motion at Environment Waikato's policy and strategy committee, reports the Waikato Times.
The committee voted seven to three to give the go ahead for council's senior coastal policy advisor, Graeme Silver, to draft a "cautionary" plan for possible aquaculture diversification within existing areas. Caution was the buzz word at yesterday's meeting with a wary approach suggested by both Mr Silver and councillors after much robust debate.
According to Waikato Times, Mr Silver said some new types of aquaculture, such as fish farming, have the potential for much greater impacts on the environment than shellfish due to the addition of feed and the possible use of medicinal compounds.
Ecological effects, including genetic impact on wild populations, and disease and parasite transmissions would also have to be considered.


Home » Ashbourne High School, London International students » The UK education system » What is a Sixth Form College?
A Sixth Form College, in the most basic sense, is where a student chooses to complete the optional final two years of Secondary Education. The traditional Sixth Form is attached to a School and the majority of its student's filter on from the school itself, with one or two joining from elsewhere; the students generally range between 16-18 and study A Levels.
During the late 1960's Sixth Form Colleges were introduced, Further Education Colleges also started appearing; these were state funded and started offering other types of courses such as BTECH and GNVQ. Their student intake was and is, to this day, incredibly large with some such as Richmond Upon Thames tertiary College taking up to 5,000 full time students.
Private Independent Sixth Form Colleges such as Ashbourne also started forming about this time; these still carried some of the ethos of traditional Sixth Forms: small intakes with a community-based approach and with strong student-teacher bonds.
Sixth Form Colleges are responsible for the employment of all their staff and teachers, meaning they select the staff right for the College itself, and the Independent ones have complete control of what is taught helping them to create the exact teaching style they want.
Ashbourne is an Independent Private Sixth Form College. Not only can the students choose from an extensive range of A level subjects, they can also choose to study a one-year course or an 18-month course. Ashbourne hereby provides an amount of flexibility to tailor around the student's personal needs. GCSE's are available to study at the Ashbourne, meaning that some of Ashbourne's intake is slightly younger than a traditional Sixth form College. Equally Ashbourne will accept a handful of students who are slightly older than typical Sixth Form students.

» Woman arrested in Illinois truck collision
Woman arrested in Illinois truck collision
A woman with a young infant in her care was arrested in La Salle county after she was involved in a collision with a truck on Saturday, Nov. 4. It is reported that she was arrested after the collision was due to several reasons, the most incriminating of which being the fact that she was found to be driving under the influence of alcohol, which means that she had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 or more.
The LaSalle County Sheriff's Office also reported that the woman was also charged with the crime of putting a child's life in danger due to her reckless driving. In addition to this, she has also been charged with improper usage of lanes, and failing to reduce speed in order to avoid an accident.
The collision occurred when the woman's minivan drifted at speed from the southbound to the northbound lane on Route 71. Because the minivan drifted into oncoming traffic, it collided into a Freightliner Box Truck. Although an attempt to avoid a collision was pursued by the 27-year-old truck driver, there was a partial collision between each passenger side of the two vehicles.
The truck driver was admitted to hospital to be treated, and the woman refused treatment. The infant in the car was not reported to suffer any injuries.
Collisions that involve driving under the influence of alcohol and reckless driving can lead to very serious circumstances. It is important to research the specifics of the circumstance you have been involved in, since liability for the crash cannot always be assumed.

Moneyball, Brad Pitt's new movie, tells of the transformation of baseball by a leader focused on a new set of critical metrics. It's a tremendous story, taking a business that almost everyone thought they knew and assessing it in a wholly different, much more energizing way.
If there is any industry in the United States right now that could use a Billy Beane it is infrastructure — absolutely critical to our future, moribund and ripe to be redefined.
What if there is a different infrastructure game to be played, one that would allow us to quickly build a new national infrastructure strategy, create jobs and generate long-term competitiveness? What if focusing on dollars spent is the equivalent in the infrastructure world of focusing on batting average in the pre-Billy Beane baseball world?
First, focus on yield. This is an emergency, so focus on the one statistic that matters, creating jobs. An infrastructure project lasts for 30 to 40 years, so when selecting projects we should score three kinds of job yields: direct jobs, those workers directly employed by the project; indirect jobs, those involved in creating the materials for the work, such as manufacturing steel; and induced jobs, those that the project will eventually produce (such as when a D.C. Metro stop sparks new development nearby or a port project brings new commerce).
Infrastructure projects need to be scored — and are scored in other countries — on both jobs created initially, and all the jobs created (and the quality of those jobs) over the lifetime of a project.
A focus on job yield will help the nation prioritize those infrastructure sectors that are most productive in job creation, channeling marginally more resources in that direction. Think about it — project investment would have less to do with congressional districts and political favors and more to do with systematically building our future. Here you could easily argue that the Silver Line extension to Dulles Airport would be a better investment than adding a lane to a parallel highway.
A focus on yield begs the addition of a second critical concept: velocity. Projects around the country are ready to go now, large and critically important projects; there are easily a million jobs in tipping-point projects. My firm recently identified 10 ready-to-go projects worth $90 billion, which would create nearly 1.5 million direct jobs.
The problem is that today in our country it takes an average of 10 years to go from concept to the point at which heavy equipment gets its "notice to proceed." The Netherlands, not an environmental bandit, faced a similar problem a decade ago, took action and reduced that period to three years. The current process is not deliberate and systematic; it is ponderous, inefficient and deeply dysfunctional. We need to change that.
Think about it. If our leadership — public, private, federal, state and local — would refocus attention to job yield, investment yield and project velocity, then we would be creating a roadmap to build a new jobs and competitiveness model, now and for the next generation. All sorts of transformations would take place, and the public would be much more engaged in the process: Which firms have the best on-time and on-budget records?
Which state agencies are most efficient with approvals, or efficient in the use of funds — by miles built or water pipes laid? Which types of projects actually create the most jobs, and/or contribute most to long-term competitiveness? And so on. This new paradigm in infrastructure would mean the creation of a whole language, and the release of enormous human energy in a new direction.
One way to bring about this change would be to task a new institution to oversee the process — a National Infrastructure Bank. Such an institution would have a clear imperative: modernise the US infrastructure industry to create large numbers of jobs and to build real competitiveness into the U.S. economy. There is a unique window of opportunity. A bank that could borrow long-term money at today's low rates could easily double our infrastructure investment over a 10-year period, and create well over 1mi jobs a year for 10 years. And this would be, if we aimed low, at European yield levels.
Bringing a Moneyball approach to the infrastructure business would produce a picture worth watching, with public and private sector managers all over America in starring roles, creating jobs expeditiously and economically, much like Billy Beane created runs for the out-performing Oakland A's.

Debt Consolidation Bad Credit: Escaping the vicious cycle of financial loans isn't the easiest job. Are you caught in a similar situation , where you are constantly thinking just about solving the debt problems and are looking for personal debt consolidation service , we are the best option. We wish to ease the procedure of debt consolidation and thus will answer all your questions completely. Once you will be fully aware about all the aspects , you would be in a position to take the appropriate decision.
Debt consolidation , simply put , is to get a greater loan to repay all your extra , small loans. Debt consolidation might not seem beneficial option, but there are advantages. Keep in mind , that in the previous loan there are smaller installments however the interest added will increase the over-all sum. However , should you take debt consolidation and pay back all the loans in a single payment , you will pay an insignificant rate of interest. That right there is a huge saving. Along with that , if you have private belongings for instance a house , you can get a superior deal.
It is obvious you don't like to increase your financial loans once you have paid off the earlier ones. The loan only gets an approval after all the requisites are satisfied , according to the guidelines for debt consolidation.
If you want to secure debt consolidation loan , the initial specification is your income. You ought to be in the position of repaying the loan amount. Every organization has got distinct rules and regulations in this regard. There is a pre determined loan and salary ratio , you must be in a position to meet that. Disposable income is the money left after deduction of income taxes and social security charges , for sale to be spent or invested as one wants , and for debt consolidation loan sanction , a person needs to have minimum 15% salary as disposable income.
Debt Consolidation Bad Credit: In order to attain consent for the loan , the other condition is one's past credit rating. It is evident that the company is going to be extremely particular about it , because the money is significant and the company requires assurance that you can pay it back. This is decided by your past pay records. It is the record of your past payments. If in the past you have not defaulted in paying your loans and debts and other invoices , this part really should not be a concern.
Your residence and job security is another deciding reason for acceptance of your loan. One is likely to get extra preference for loan if she or he works in the same place and staying in the same property for a time frame of twelve months and above. This kind of steadiness shows that you're very likely to pay back your loans on time and have a realistic approach towards living on a whole.
Another specification of preference is the amount of assets you own. This doesn't totally reduce your chances for loan sanction.
However , if you possess a home , you just have better chances.
Since you already know the reason why you need debt consolidation and how to obtain it , start your debt consolidation service with us straight away. Debt Consolidation Bad Credit Improved in Toronto ON Apply Now.


Nothing like finding a car like this in a barn.
The original muscle car era was not long but it had a profound impact on American performance that's still very much alive to this day. One of the most famous and, not to mention, rare, of those muscle cars was the 1970 Plymouth Superbird. By today's standards, it could be mistaken for a small boat, but the Superbird was very much state of the art for its time. It had to be because Plymouth wanted to lure NASCAR great Richard Petty back from Ford. Needless to say, it worked, but the Superbird's NASCAR career lasted only one season.
Why? It was just too damn fast. Designed in the wind tunnel (a rarity at the time), the Superbird was homologated and road car production got underway, though it was limited.
As Jay Leno and fellow comedian and owner of the Superbird featured here, Jeff Dunham, discuss in this new episode of Jay Leno's Garage was the fact the car was not very popular when it went on sale. It was so different from anything else out there (one exception: the '69 Dodge Charger Daytona) that some buyers actually removed the front end. Clearly things have changed today as these Superbirds are highly sought after. Dunham's car was actually a barn find and it's rare even among Superbirds because of its manual transmission.
Check out the video below from another episode of Jay Leno's Garage, the Emmy-winning series where Jay Leno gives car reviews, motorcycle reviews, compares cars, and shares his passion and expertise on anything that rolls, explodes, and makes noise.
