EF Education First-Drapac announced the signing of Moreno Hofland on Saturday on a two-year contract that will take him through to the end of 2020. The Dutch sprinter joins the team after spending two seasons with Lotto Soudal as one of André Greipel's lead-out men.

"I'm really looking forward to riding for an international team," said Hofland in a team press release. "I like to explore myself through learning, and there's no better way to learn than through differences. I'm the only Dutch guy on my current team, which is mainly Belgian, and that can be isolating sometimes.
"I think it's really cool to have Danes, Italians, Spaniards, Colombians, Australians, Dutchmen and, of course, Americans working together. This will be new for me, and I always like to try new things."
The 26-year-old has spent the duration of his career racing for Dutch and Belgian teams, joining the WorldTour ranks in 2013 with Belkin Pro Cycling, where he stayed for three seasons. He transitioned with the programme as it gained new title sponsors to become LottoNL-Jumbo for 2015 and 2016. He then joined Lotto Soudal in 2017.
During his career, Hofland has won stages at the Ster ZLM Toer, Vuelta a Andalucia, Tour of Utah, Paris-Nice, and Tour of Hainan, where he also won the overall title. His last victory came at the UCI 1.1 Famenne Ardenne Classic last year.
Holfand has participated in the Giro d'Italia three times and once at the Vuelta a España. His best result in a Grand Tour was second in a stage at the Giro in 2015 and third in a stage of the Vuelta in 2014.
"I've raced the Giro d'Italia three times, and, in my first try, I came second on a stage," Hofland said. "I'm also proud of that. My biggest dream is to win a stage in a Grand Tour.
"I want to improve every day," he said. "My ambitions for next season are to get back into sprinting again and to win races. My biggest goal for 2019 is to win a WorldTour race, and, of course, with the Classics team we have, I want to be there with Sep [Vanmarcke] and Sebastian [Langeveld]. I want to help them win a big one."
The team press release stated that Hofland will play a key role in the Classics and in the sprints during the season.
"Moreno is a guy that showed great promise and won a lot of bike races early in his career and then moved into the role of being a lead-out rider for Greipel," said Slipstream Sports CEO Jonathan Vaughters.
"He lost a little bit of his killer instinct when he was taken out of that sprinter role. We're going to put him back in that role and help him achieve results for himself."

Phoenix MI used an online tracking survey with three populations: current and prospective employees, 18 to 54 years old (with quotas for current employment in key industries, as well as the insurer's key geographic regions), and recent or soon-to-be four-year college graduates in degree programs relevant to insurance employment.
The survey evaluated employer brand awareness, familiarity, overall impressions, as well as willingness to work in specific industries and other key employment-seeking metrics and information.
Our client fine-tuned their external talent recruiting efforts to focus on those attributes most important to job-seekers, by region. Using information from the study, they have improved their talent retention metrics by making organizational changes to enhance employee satisfaction as well as their appeal to prospective hires.

Speaker A: My friend is creating a wide-area radio network for Afghanistan.
Speaker B: Afghanistan has no infrastructure — including radio stations. Although radio is popular, it is mostly shortwave, with a few local FM stations for the local Iman. And electricity for radio stations is spotty at best including in Kabul.
Speaker A: Well, I can build really cheap, "ultra" cheap, radio receivers.
Speaker B: As long as you are doing that, why not give them OpenBTS cell phones running on ambient energy, and include a radio app? Then get someone else — Google, Virgin Mobile, the Chinese or India — to focus on all-purpose cellular towers and tethered ballons?
Phi Beta Iota: For what the USA has spent on war in the past decade, we could have given every person on the planet a free cell phone and free access to the Internet (including education and radio) for life. War is profitable for the few; peace is profitable for everyone. It's time we got everyone to understand that and begin boycotting all banks, all corporations, that prefer war over peace for selfish reasons. From an Information Operations (IO) point of view, there is no better investment than to place a hand-held device with GPS tracking in the hands of every single individual.

Roller-coast-er
Opened just over a year ago in the Devon seaside town of Paignton, Paignton Pier Chippy has had its ups and downs, including a devastating fire. They've not held the outlet back, however, and already it has a multitude of awards to its name
First opened in 1879, Paignton Pier has been attracting visitors for over a century with its array of amusements and entertainment, yet there was always one thing missing - a good old fish and chip shop.
That was until February last year when industry newcomer Lorraine Arnold carried out a £200,000 refurbishment of an old cafe at the entrance to the pier, making way for a modern 100 seater fish and chip restaurant and takeaway.
"I was running the children's amusements at the back of the pier for a couple of years and I couldn't believe that there was no chippy along the seafront," she remarks. "It didn't make any sense to me. There are plenty of cafes and kiosks, but no chippies."
Wanting to return to the days of serving quality fish and chips by the seaside, Lorraine very quickly started asking questions in the industry. "The first thing I did was go to chippy school, as I call it, with KFE where I met Nigel Hodgson, Gordon Hillan and Garry Rosser. That was a fantastic starting point. We then had Craig Maw from Kingfisher in Plymouth come and spend time with us, and I went up to Hanbury's in Babbacombe and met with David Hanbury just before we opened, who was really lovely and helpful.
"I literally Googled everything there was to know about fish and chips and asked lots and lots of questions. I knew from the beginning that I had to be the best. I'm not interested in turning a quick profit, I want to be here for the long haul. I thought whoever is the best, that's who I need to teach me."
Putting in a brand new wet room and staff room downstairs, Lorraine completely revamped and refurbished the restaurant and takeaway upstairs too. She decided to chip and peel all her own potatoes, buy in pre-cut MSC certified cod and haddock, and implement a simple menu that also includes chippy staples such as pies, scampi, fishcakes, sausages, hot dogs and burgers.
With Easter just a few weeks later, the chippy experienced its busiest ever day. It was the ideal start, until Lorraine had a knock at the door at 3am two months later. The shop was on fire.
"It was the batter bits," she explains. "During the final clean, they had been emptied into the bin but the bin wasn't taken out. Where there was blue paper in it from the clean down, it was smoldering away. It eventually caught fire and took very quickly. Everything was gutted and we had to go back to the bare walls again, rewire the place and put in new plumbing, fridges and freezers. The only thing that was still standing was the range. It was devastating and it still is now."
With shopfitters and tradesmen working through the night, Paignton Pier Chippy was back up and running within just five days and in time for BMAD, a local festival for bikers during which it beat its Easter record. It gave Lorraine the reassurance she needed to keep going. "It was relentless," she Lorraine. "After BMAD, it dawned on me quickly that as long as we stick to producing good quality food and making sure everything is consistent, people will come back. We are now building up a regular trade as well as the holidaymakers, which is really important to us as we are open all through the winter."
Since the fire, Lorraine has implemented a host of changes, including introducing gluten free fish and chips every day after purchasing a second hand, two pan range from Krispies in nearby Exmouth. There's also gluten free sausages and pies, and sales are increasing by the day. Other additions include an extra EPOS till on the takeaway window, the introduction of alcoholic drinks as well as gaining the Q Award from the NFFF and MSC accreditation.
Spurred on by the improvements she had made, Lorraine entered the business into Best Newcomer at the 2019 National Fish & Chip Awards, where it came runner up, as well as Fry Magazine's 50 Best Takeaways. Although it didn't make the shortlist for the latter, the report from the competition's judges provided areas for improvement. Lorraine comments: "We didn't make the Top 50, which was really disappointing, but it kept us on our toes and it was good for the staff who were really interested all the way through. Plus, the report was fantastic, so much so that we've now got a mystery shopper coming in every month. I don't even know when they are coming in!"
With Easter this year breaking all records once again, Lorraine is enthused and ready to take the shop on a level. She's appointed a manager to share the workload and she's also planning to introduce homemade items such as mushy peas and fishcakes. "From the summer, I'm thinking of putting on a mini cod goujon as well as a mixed fish platter too," she explains. "I think it would be great to offer customers a taster of our plaice and haddock as well as have a couple of cod goujons too."
It's certainly been a rollercoaster ride for Lorraine and the team at Paignton Pier Chippy in the short time the outlet has been open. With the lows hopefully behind them, Lorraine is grateful for all the advice, pointers and recommendations she's been given, adding: "Without realising what it entails, I thought let's have a chippy but there's certainly a lot more to it than I ever thought. It's a fantastic industry though, full of support, and I'm amazed daily by the people involved."

Recent acquisitions now added to the reading list:
Andrew March, Islam and Liberal Citizenship The Search for an Overlapping Consensus
Some argue that Muslims have no tradition of separation of church and state and therefore can't participate in secular, pluralist society. At the other extreme, some Muslims argue that it is the duty of all believers to resist western forms of government and to impose Islamic law. Andrew F. March demonstrates that there are very strong and authentically Islamic arguments for accepting the demands of citizenship in a liberal democracy, many of them found even in medieval works of Islamic jurisprudence. In fact, he shows, it is precisely the fact that Rawlsian political liberalism makes no claims to metaphysical truth that makes it appealing to Muslims.
Daniel Nexon, The Struggle for Power in Early Modern Europe: Religious Conflict, Dynastic Empires, and International Change
Scholars have long argued over whether the 1648 Peace of Westphalia, which ended more than a century of religious conflict arising from the Protestant Reformations, inaugurated the modern sovereign-state system. But they largely ignore a more fundamental question: why did the emergence of new forms of religious heterodoxy during the Reformations spark such violent upheaval and nearly topple the old political order? In this book, Daniel Nexon demonstrates that the answer lies in understanding how the mobilization of transnational religious movements intersects with--and can destabilize--imperial forms of rule.
Taking a fresh look at the pivotal events of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries--including the Schmalkaldic War, the Dutch Revolt, and the Thirty Years' War--Nexon argues that early modern "composite" political communities had more in common with empires than with modern states, and introduces a theory of imperial dynamics that explains how religious movements altered Europe's balance of power. He shows how the Reformations gave rise to crosscutting religious networks that undermined the ability of early modern European rulers to divide and contain local resistance to their authority. In doing so, the Reformations produced a series of crises in the European order and crippled the Habsburg bid for hegemony.
Nexon's account of these processes provides a theoretical and analytic framework that not only challenges the way international relations scholars think about state formation and international change, but enables us to better understand global politics today.
Anna Stilz, Liberal Loyalty: Freedom, Obligation, and the State
Many political theorists today deny that citizenship can be defended on liberal grounds alone. Cosmopolitans claim that loyalty to a particular state is incompatible with universal liberal principles, which hold that we have equal duties of justice to persons everywhere, while nationalist theorists justify civic obligations only by reaching beyond liberal principles and invoking the importance of national culture. In Liberal Loyalty, Anna Stilz challenges both views by defending a distinctively liberal understanding of citizenship.
Drawing on Kant, Rousseau, and Habermas, Stilz argues that we owe civic obligations to the state if it is sufficiently just, and that constitutionally enshrined principles of justice in themselves--rather than territory, common language, or shared culture--are grounds for obedience to our particular state and for democratic solidarity with our fellow citizens. She demonstrates that specifying what freedom and equality mean among a particular people requires their democratic participation together as a group. Justice, therefore, depends on the authority of the democratic state because there is no way equal freedom can be defined or guaranteed without it. Yet, as Stilz shows, this does not mean that each of us should entertain some vague loyalty to democracy in general. Citizens are politically obligated to their own state and to each other, because within their particular democracy they define and ultimately guarantee their own civil rights.
Liberal Loyalty is a persuasive defense of citizenship on purely liberal grounds.
Avery Kolers, Land, Conflict, and Justice: A Political Theory of Territory
Territorial disputes have defined modern politics, but political theorists and philosophers have said little about how to resolve such disputes fairly. Is it even possible to do so? If historical attachments or divine promises are decisive, it may not be. More significant than these largely subjective claims are the ways in which people interact with land over time. Building from this insight, Avery Kolers re-evaluates existing political theories and develops an attractive alternative. He presents a novel link between political legitimacy and environmental stewardship, and applies these new ideas in an extended and balanced discussion of the Israeli-Palestinian dispute. The result is the first systematic normative theory of territory, and an impressive example of applied philosophy. In addition to political theorists and philosophers, scholars and students of sociology, international relations, and human geography will find this book rewarding, as will anyone with wider interests in territory and justice.
Plus the next batch of planned purchases and additions to the reading list:
Cary Nederman, Lineages of European Political Thought: Explorations Along the Medieval/Modern Divide from John of Salisbury to Hegel

Kevin van Veen: It feels like home
by James Moody
@jamesiron95
Striker Kevin van Veen spoke about the Iron feeling "like home" in his opening interview following his return to the club.
The Dutchman re-signed for United just under a year after departing for Northampton Town, penning a two-and-a-half year deal for an undisclosed fee.
"It's obviously a good feeling to be back," he said, speaking to iFollow Iron.
"Obviously I know the club well, so it feels like home. It was a tough decision because I was enjoying my time at Northampton. The biggest thing for me was the Chairman's belief and that was the biggest part of my decision. I'm happy it's been done early."
United were the first side to bring the 27-year-old across the water to England, with van Veen believing he has developed as a player even further during his time away from the club.
"I've been growing since the first day I stepped foot in England and I feel I can do well here again," he continued.
"When I left, I was on a scoring streak. I'd scored seven in ten and the feeling was great personally. At that time, it was a very tough decision to leave everyone behind, but I'm looking forward to doing the same thing and do it even better than last time.
"The start was really tough. I needed to get used to the team and the driving, as it was two-and-a-half hours there and back every day. It was hard getting used to it, but this season I've really enjoyed my time. I've scored quite a few goals, along with a few assists.
"There's a good feeling around the club. It's a good club, a good team and I will miss some players and some people there. On the other hand, I'm back here now and I cannot wait to get started again."
Van Veen becomes Scunthorpe's first January recruit and believes the Iron will continue to drive forward.
"When I played here, we have been fighting for promotion. We've had some great results, great football and great goals," he said.
"We've just missed out twice and this time it's more of a dogfight to escape relegation but the Chairman has a lot of belief in the squad.
"It's January, so there will be additions to hopefully make the squad better so that we can push on to at least make safety or - stranger things can happen - even the play-off spots. I'm looking forward to it."

Having a SEO firm in Brooklyn is an excellent way to help businesses boost their rankings in Google and help them increase their profits. SEO firms profit handsomely and running a great, reputable company can work wonders on the income. However, there are still a number of SEO companies that are struggling to get clients, and sometimes this may because they are new in the field and may not have as much experience as some of the big businesses in the industry. Therefore, it can help to know how you can boost your Brooklyn SEO firm and begin profiting immediately. This article will provide you with a number of easy ways to supercharge your Brooklyn firm and begin profiting today.
You want to provide the best customer service possible when running any business and there is no exception with a Brooklyn SEO consultant Your company needs to be client-focused and you need to approach every new job with a smile and something unique, by unique you need to treat every client like a VIP and reassure them that you can deliver results. It may even help to educate the client a little and demonstrate what you are going to do with their website and business to get that number one spot. Once you begin business, keep in constantly communication with them and keep them updated on weekly/monthly rankings.
Before you start ranking and optimising a client's site, or even consider contacting a client altogether, you should first rank and optimise your own site. What good is an SEO company in Brooklyn if they can't even get their website to the top of google to get maximum exposure and credibility? A top ranked page will show potential clients that you know what you're talking about as you have literally showed them you can rank with your own site.

You can even brag about being at the top of Google for the Brooklyn area on your website to make it as clear as possible to potential clients.
This point links with the above point and the two go hand-in-hand. You need to have a clean and functional website to even be considered as a legit business. Individuals use the internet for many things and one of those things is information. If your site is old and clunky, with little information and content, potential clients will see red flags and go to another firm's site. You need to have fast loading time, relevant content and a simple design for clients to follow. These factors will also affect your SEO, and with a functional, easy website you are more likely to be ranked at the top of Google.
Running an SEO firm in Brooklyn is not a walk in the park and if you are starting out you need to know the ways you can boost your business.

Moreover, you need to have your site at the top of the Brooklyn area before you even consider ranking other people's sites, and with a simple, functional website at the top of Google, you will be able to boost your firm and close more sales.


A lot of this page has been adapted from our Caving Without Tears handbook – check it out if you want to see more detail, including about history of the club, caving safely, conservation and extra caving items.
For our Give It A Go's (GIAGs) and most trips near the beginning of the semester, nope! They'll be fairly easy horizontal caves with some crawling and easy climbs, so if you've never been caving before, we'll take you on interesting trips which require less technical ability than when yu've been with us for a while.
However, a lot of our trips are in vertical caves that require ascending, descending or traversing ropes, so we ask you to learn how to use the equipment to do this at training beforehand.
A caving trip will normally last about four hours; it may be more, may be less, depending on the nature of the cave itself. In any case we normally are underground by around 1:00pm and out in time for a curry. Once back on the surface, everyone changes into their spare set of DRY CLOTHES. It is possible that there will be a bit of a wait here as different caving parties return (or not), and you may get a bit hungry. Sandwiches are quite useful at this point though you will have to fight off the ravenous scavengers who failed to bring any of their own. We generally aim to be back in Leeds by the evening, where we'll often head for a curry or to the pub – we cannot guarantee the time we'll be back in Leeds, so bear in mind that if you need to be back in Leeds by a certain time.
Although we provide caving equipment, such as oversuits, SRT kits, wellies, helmets etc., we require you to bring some stuff too. Failure to bring the correct kit (especially underlayers) may mean we cannot take you caving!
We do not recommend taking phones into caves: waterproof pouches or water resistant phones are not necessarily cave-proof and there is a high chance of you breaking the screen or the entirety of your device.
Everyone will meet at 9:00am (ish) for day trips and 6:00pm (ish) for weekend trips at 'The Chapel'. You will hear people mention The Chapel quite a lot – this is where we (as well as a few other outdoor clubs) store our gear and equipment. It's situated just over the road from The Edge sports centre, in an old church building.
Check our Facebook page for a more accurate leaving time.
Our most infamous and popular trips! Generally ran 4 times a term, leaving Friday evening and returning Sunday evening. We all head to cave-heavy region of the UK and spend the weekend doing as much caving as we can, while spending the nights partying together at a caving hut (think a more chaotic hostel!). We even include breakfasts and dinners so there's no excuse to miss these events!
Subject to the weather (and the number of 'under the weather' cavers), we'll be caving on both the Saturday and Sunday. The type of caving we do will depend on where we're going, and our weekend trips are a brilliant way of experiencing caves that you wouldn't get to if you only come on our Dales day trips.
When you come on a weekend trip with us, there are a few things you'll need to bring with you, in addition to the items you'd take on a day trip. The most important is a sleeping bag – we usually stay in caving huts that are owned and operated by caving clubs based all over the country and while they all have beds (of sorts), you'll need a sleeping bag if you want to stay warm. If you don't already have one then sleeping bags can be picked up quite cheaply – just ask someone if you need some shopping advice.
You'll also want to bring a few other essentials – some cash, snack food, any medication you might need, and alcohol (if preferred).
For most of our trips, we operate an online ticket purchasing system. In the week (or two) prior to a trip (day or weekend), tickets will be available to buy from the club's LUU webpage. You simply need to log in using your student ID number and password and then add the tickets to your basket. This is the same place you buy membership, and for insurance reasons you have to buy membership prior to coming on trips (the exception being Give-It-A-Go and day trips that are advertised as not requiring membership). There will always be a limit to the number of spaces available on any one trip so although we will try to accommodate everyone, make sure to get in quickly if you're keen.
Membership will allow you access to day and weekend trips, use of the club tackle store, public liability insurance, access to Edge training sessions (for Uni of Leeds students, additional cost for others).
Tickets for our trips are available on the LUU shop till 12pm Wednesday before a trip – if you have missed out, there may be spaces still available so ask. GIAGs (and some trips) do not require membership.
While caving can be a risky activity, we take many steps to prevent anything bad from occurring – that said here are things that you should be aware of.
Firstly, as you approach a cave entrance be aware that wet limestone open to daylight can be ridiculously slippery due to algal slime, so be careful with your footing.
When underground, pitches can pose a danger especially when cavers are above causing lose rocks to rain down, so be careful and don't knock or kick rocks. For that reason, never stand directly below a pitch, and if you here the ear splitting yell of "BELOW!!!" (meaning rocks are impending) DON'T LOOK UP, instead get yourself out of the away and avoid the urge to protect your head with your arms, your head will already be protected by your helmet.
Fatigue often goes hand in hand with being cold, this has a simple solution if caught early… eat, drink, put on warm layers, and most importantly tell other group members how you're feeling. Every caver would prefer to abort the trip safely, than to continue until the only hope of getting out is by being rescued.
FINALLY there is a requirement that YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN ACTIONS both above and below ground. You must make your own judgement. If you are unwell or your fitness is not up to scratch on a particular day do not come caving, the caves aren't going anywhere, and you will be putting others at risk as well as yourself. It is up to you to ensure that you eat a proper breakfast in order to have the endurance to participate in what can be a very strenuous activity. The trip leader is there to guide, train and supervise. The rest is up to you!
As a society, we are dedicated to the conservation of caves. We, therefore, try to limit the damage that our presence inevitably does to the underground environment.
If you want to learn more about caving see newtocaving.com or check out Caving Without Tears Handbook.
This page is meant to be a summary of everything you need to know, however further documentation of what we expect of our members (including freshers and GIAG members), risk assessments, our code of practice is available at ulsa.org.uk/documentation.


Austin Zhang arrived in Halifax on January 3, 2010 at 1 a.m. after a 14-hour flight from China. He was coming here from his hometown outside of Shanghai to study at Dalhousie. He did know someone here; his mom's friend's daughter went to Dalhousie, too. They met him at the airport. The city was hit by a storm the day before. Zhang remembers the piles snow everywhere. It was his first time seeing snow and it wasn't a happy one. He was also exhausted from the trip.
Now, seven years later, Zhang's experience in the city is a more positive one. He loves its nature, hiking outside the city, and camping. Summer is his favourite season. And he has a job as a recruitment coordinator with EduNova, a cooperative industry association of education and training providers in Nova Scotia. Zhang works on a new program called Study and Stay in Nova Scotia, which recruits students to the province to study and eventually work, providing them with the resources and supports along the way.
The Study and Stay Program is the second of unique programming for EduNova. The first program was Stay in Nova Scotia, which was launched in 2015. That program included a cohort of 50 students who were recruited in their final year of university. The goal was to provide them the support to stay in the province beyond graduation in July. Twenty-two of the 50 got jobs in their field.
In the Study and Stay Program, at least another 50 students will have access to resources and supports from before they arrive in Nova Scotia. Zhang has been talking with the students and their parents for months already, helping them with advice, including what to pack. Zhang and the program mentors will follow the students through to graduation and beyond. The students for this cohort come from China, India, and the Philippines. Every university in the province is involved, as are campuses of NSCC.
As part of the program, students will receive employment and transition support from a retention coordinator at EduNova. They will develop networks with their peers and business professionals around the province. They will take part in a two-day Employment Preparedness and Cohort Retreat. And they will develop job search skills, branding techniques, complete a workplace placement, and more.
The program has had an unexpected consequence, too, by bringing Nova Scotia and what it has to offer in education and employment to the world stage.
Luther says Zhang brings something unique to the program, including his fluency in Mandarin and lived experience as an international student who came to Nova Scotia.
The Study and Stay Program is gaining international attention. Luther says other jurisdictions have approached EduNova to see how they can roll out a similar program. And the program has been honoured with awards; it received an outstanding achievement award from the Canadian Association of Career Educators and Employers, and was shortlisted for the Pioneer Award.
For Zhang, the program is more than connecting international students to universities and future employers. It's about connecting them to a new home. He remembers well that first experience arriving in the city and he wants the students he's working with to know they have someone here to support them. One of students with the Study and Stay Program arrived in Halifax from India and is already connecting with the city. He will attend NSCAD in September, but in the meantime took in his first camping trip.


Silver was recognized for its unique properties as early as 69 BC. For Nearly 2000 years, well before conventional therapies, Silver was considered the first line of defense for immune threats. It was discovered that silver can reduce the symptoms of illness and delay food spoilage.
Silver became a prominent treatment for virtually everything in the 19th century and still today it is used as a powerful immune system enhancer.
Mineralife Silver is designed to provide safe and effective amounts of Silver, each dose providing 100mcg Silver, well within the 350 micrograms (mcg) per day limit of the Environmental Protection Agency standards for silver in drinking water.
Take a stand for your family's health by investing in a high quality silver supplement.
Add both bottles to your cart and discount will automatically be applied! Limited quantity available.
The benefits of silver are widely discussed in the scientific literature. Its historical uses are also well documented and date back thousands of years. There is renewed interest in silver, not only in its medicinal use but also in countless other applications.
Silver naturally holds onto oxygen molecules, which readily react with bacteria and viruses. This helps shield the body's life-preserving cellular process known as cellular respiration, bolstering the body's immune response.
Silver ions can attach to bacteria cell membranes directly helping to support the immune system.
Silver helps support the body's immune system and is a powerful, natural shield that benefits the body in many ways.
Mineralife's Silver is prepared from a 99.999% pure elemental silver source.
QUICK ABSORPTION: Angstrom-sized silver particles provide the greatest absorption, effect and utilization in the body–a consistent small particle size in every dose.
CONCENTRATED: At 20 PPM or mg/L concentration, 1 teaspoon provides 100mcg of silver.
EXCELLENT VALUE: 8 oz bottle provides 96 servings.
Silver has a long history of incredible benefits, if most significant is its ability to support the body's immune system. Not only does silver support the immune system, it supports healthy skin also. In the Middle Ages, silver spoons were given by wealthy godparents to babies as christening presents. Those "born with a silver spoon in their mouths" benefited from silver's purifying properties. Phoenicians stored water, wine and vinegar in silver bottles to prevent spoiling.
Colloidal silver is also a fantastic inflammatory support remedy. Case in point: Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) studied the effects of inflammation after being treated by colloidal silver; they found that the inflamed skin of pigs treated with silver experienced near-normal skin after 72 hours, while other treatment groups not treated with silver remained inflamed. Research is beginning to reflect what many people have already known anecdotally for years — that colloidal silver can support the body's natural ability to reduce swelling, speed healing, and boost cell recovery!
Silver is a natural element that can be found in whole grains, edible and medicinal mushrooms, mammalian milk, spring water, sea water and tap water. Used medicinally for more than 2,000 years, silver has played an integral role in safeguarding human health.
Silver was one of the few antimicrobial treatments available before the discovery of antibiotic drugs. By the 1800s, silver nitrate was used to treat wounds and skin ulcers. In 1852, it was discovered that using fine silver wires for sutures helped heal repaired flesh.
In America's Old West, silver coins were dropped into drinking water barrels for protection against water-borne illness, and during the Civil War, silver was used to treat syphilis. In the 1880s, the use of silver nitrate in the eyes of newborn infants to prevent post-delivery infections was introduced. Colloidal Silver was first discovered in the 1890's.
By the 1930s, Colloidal silver was the preferred choice of physicians for empowering the immune system and supporting the body's innate healing process. Silver was used to treat infections on the World War I battlefields, but medicinal usage of silver declined with the advent of antibiotics shortly thereafter.
My mother had a fungus on her foot for a couple months. I advised her to try the silver to see if it would clear up the fungus. She finally took my advice and informed me that her fungus was gone less than a week. I took a look at her foot and no sign of the fungus. I recommend this to all.
One of my friends has been taking Mineralife's Silver and she's telling everyone to take it. So here I am now, buying a bottle. It must be good if she says so!
This silver is amazing. It is antimicrobial. It kills bacteria and fungi from my experience. I put a teensy bit of it in the food I cook (and the guacamole I don't cook), and it lasts for quite a while without going bad. I forgot my food in the work fridge for at least a month once, then found it and threw it out. As I was discarding it, I realized that even though it was a meat sauce, it did not smell rancid or have any mold at all after all that time. Incredible. I highly recommend this to anyone who does NOT have a silver allergy.
A buildup of Staph on my ulcer made me buy. My Doctor recommended this and we are both pleased with the results. Wound is healing nicely without the greenish exudate.
I've had great service from Jen and Ruth when ordering several Mineralife products. They were helpful and friendly and the products are wonderful…especially the Silver. I know that I'll be ordering again soon.
I was very pleased with this product. It is actually the first product I have brought from mineral life. I got this product to mainly help give my immune system a boost. With me having asthma , my immune system is naturally compromised, I tend to get sick often. Since I have been taking this product I've notice a boost in my energy levels and honestly have not been sick at all. Even my asthma seems more controlled as well. I truly recommend trying this product out , it is affordable and ships in a reasonable time.
I hate being sick so I love that Silver boosts my immune system. Kudos to Mineralife.
I have been using your liquid silver since earlier this year.
After researching online, I decided to give it a try.
Since taking the product, I have noticed more energy.
I wanted to take it to improve my immune function.
I take 2 ounces at a time, twice daily.
I will notify my friends who suffer from chronic conditions and alert them to your website for review.
We Take a teaspoon of this every morning and I feel it has really boost our immune system. My family sees a natural DR. and they really recommended Mineral life. I'm in great health and my family does our health care as natural as we can, and minerals are so important.
I use the silver because it came highly recommended by a friend.
I take the silver, as I am told it is good for my blood. I have not had my blood examined in a while, but I do feel better when I take it.
I like the liquid because it helps my meds work better in my body and I get the full dosage of meds and supplements. I take several Mineralife supplements with Silver being my primary one.

Steampunk'd in Thirty Minutes
R. G. September 3, 2018 @ 5:00 PM
Photo by Michael Hampton
If you've ever wanted to see a costume thrown together in thirty minutes from random scraps, then "Extreme Makeover: Steampunk Edition" is the panel for you. On Friday at 2:30PM in Hilton Grand East, cosplay fans were treated to three expert costumers creating costumes from a wagon filled with scraps.
David Anthony Lee, Astrid Shadows, and Andrew Reseigh graced the audience with some of their costuming genius. Doctor Q and Daisy Viktoria acted as moderators and judges, providing ample commentary while the artists worked their magic.
Q and Viktoria picked three random audience members to come up to the front and receive Steampunk Makeovers. Each audience member was assigned to one of the guest artists to work their magic on.
The artists had twenty minutes to dig through a wagon filled with random supplies and come up with a costume idea for their model. The wagon had everything from vests to wigs to a random hookah thrown in. Nothing in the wagon had to be used as-is, and the artists were free to cut and sew anything they found to make it work for their costumes.
After the twenty minutes were up, the artists had to step away from their models while the judges walked around and evaluated the work thus far. The artists could then use the judges' feedback to improve their costumes.
But before they were allowed to begin working again, three random audience members were chosen to come up and look through the remaining items in the wagon. They were each able to pick one item out and give it to an artist who then had to incorporate the item into their costume in some manner.
Then the final ten minutes began. Some of the artists worked diligently while others resorted to some smack talk to intimidate their competition.
When all was said and done, all three artists had thrown together amazing costumes. The final judging was done by audience applause. It was a close call, but in the end, Lee was crowned the winner for his steampunk'd Bambi.

Cultural Literacy Initiative
Dr. Sherrill Knox presents the District Plan for Cultural Literacy and Anti-Bias Education. To view the discussion, click on image
After three months of planning and inviting community input, on April 17th Dr. Sherrill Knox presented OUSD's Cultural Literacy Initiative, including supporting curriculum and events, to the School Board.
Dr. Knox began the presentation with a special thanks to the Ojai community and The Ojai Alliance for Education Equity (OAEE) for input throughout the process. "We received many emails from our community, and held several meetings and discussions with the Ojai Alliance for Education Equity. Everything we learned during these discussion went into the plan," said Dr. Knox, adding "By no means is this plan an exhaustive list," stating that because OUSD schools enjoy independence to add special programming, each site can add to the plan. "One example of school sites choosing whatever they'd like to add to this programming is that Mira Monte and Topa Topa schools recently took their fifth and sixth graders to visit the Museum of Tolerance." Dr. Knox later added that the Cultural Literacy initiative is "... something we can commit to; a concrete list we can look at, and work, on together".
During the presentation, Dr. Knox stated OUSD recently invited Anti-Defamation League (ADL) educators to host a 3-hour training entitled "Hate and Anti-Bias Training" for all OUSD teachers. "We received excellent feedback from our teachers, and we will be looking at other options from the ADL in future," said Dr. Knox.
Many pieces of the Cultural Literacy initiative have already launched, said Dr. Knox. "Last week, I was able to visit one of our school sites as Fifth and Sixth graders viewed a presentation on the Civil Rights movement led by Lanny Kaufer…." which included a history on Caesar Chavez and the Farm Workers Movement of 1962. "The Civil Rights Assembly is in the permanent plan for all four elementary sites annually, and this presentation will continue year-over-year".
Mr. Kaufer is an Ojai resident, musician, songwriter and retired teacher who taught full time at Santa Paula High School from 1996 to 2007. "After going to the South in 1965 to volunteer for Dr. King's SCOPE Project and experiencing the intolerance there, I'm pleased with the district's swift and thoughtful response to recent instances of bias, and honored to be a part of the new Cultural Diversity initiative." The Cultural Literacy program begins at the Kindergarten/Transitional Kindergarten level using Social and Emotional Learning curriculum that is age-appropriate and helps students develop tools to solve conflicts as they arise. "From there, we provide anti-bias lessons that are structured and developmentally appropriate for each grade level," said Dr. Knox. "Our aim in implementing these lesson plans and special events across all grade levels is to add that competency of knowing about one another's cultures, and be culturally responsive and empathetic"
Additionally….."...we are currently piloting social studies curriculum across the district, in an effort to align to our new framework of delivering lessons across multiple perspectives."
Other in-programming efforts, which will be repeated annually, include but are not limited to: "Hate Symbols Assembly" held at Matilija Middle School and led by the Anti-Defamation League; "See Something, Say Something Week" anti-bias/anti-bullying focus, culminating in a visit from a Holocaust Survivor; and a Disability Awareness Workshop.

Staff Spotlight: Bond Managers Alan White and Adam Dutter
As OUSD continues to implement necessary infrastructure updates, and launches several major projects this Summer, with Measure J funding, the OUSD School Board and Staff welcome two Bond Managers to the District.
OUSD Bond Manager Adam Dutter was born and raised in Ojai, and atte nded Meiners Oaks Elementary and Matilija Junior High Schools, graduating from Nordhoff High School in 1999. Mr. Dutter's fond memories of attending OUSD schools include competing on three state championship cross country teams under Ken Reeves and on three league championship swim teams under current Athletic Director Rene Nakao-Mach. "My wife is also a lifelong Ojai resident, and Nordhoff graduate, and now we have two kids who attend San Antonio and another starting kindergarten next year," noted Mr. Dutter, adding " I am definitely passionate about, and personally invested in, OUSD"
After graduating from Nordhoff High School, Mr. Dutter attended Ventura College, earning his Associates Degree, and embarking on a career in national facilities maintenance. In his new job, Dutter was charged with managing all recurring exterior maintenance and large capital projects at over 1,000 locations across the country. Later, Mr. Dutter managed maintenance, capital projects, and negotiated vendor contracts for over 100 locations nationwide. He eventually moved to the role of Purchasing Manager at The Ojai Valley Inn, managing a team that was responsible for all operational, retail, and culinary goods for the property. Eventually that role expanded to include the review, planning, and execution of various on-site construction capital projects.
"I'm truly grateful and feel very blessed to be able to work here at OUSD. Not only do I get to give back to the schools & Ojai Valley, but I get to directly impact the school experience for my kids and all the other kids in the valley," said Mr. Dutter.
Bond Manager Alan White was hired in January of this year as the second Bond Project Manager, focusing on construction field work. Mr. White brings with him over 45 years of work experience in the construction field.
Licensed as a general contractor, Mr. White's business history as a stone material supplier has given him a strong background in materials acquisition and management. Mr. White has also designed, built, and operated food processing plants, adding a variety of construction and management experience from the perspective of maintaining these plants and multiple sites.
Prior to his involvement in construction in 1980, Alan worked for Pacific Gas & Electric. During a recent presentation to the OUSD School Board, Mr. White notes that he he has already initiated a number of projects
Mr. White shared that the construction projects outlined for Summer of 2019 will make for a busy season. "With HVAC projects at 6 sites, paving at 4 sites, roofing at 5 sites, painting at 2 sites, blind installation at 4 sites, and major projects such as the Matilija Gym, Nordhoff Library and Pool, we definitely understand the sense of urgency to get these facilities upgraded while students and staff are off-site this summer," noted Mr. White. Mr. Dutter added that "Based on this list, some of these campuses will have quite a bit of construction traffic over the summer. We ask that the community please respect any closure or safety signs when visiting the campuses"

Nordhoff College Fair and Campus Visits
Providing Student Insight on Further Education, Workforce Readiness
Dr. Zenda Abbott, Director, CTE Outreach at Ventura County Office of Education, shares insight on Career Technical Education opportunities with a group of Nordhoff Freshmen
Nordhoff High School recently hosted a first-of-its-kind College Fair, as a collaborative effort between Nordhoff Staff, Volunteers and the Nordhoff Parent Association.
The college fair had its beginnings in the Fall of 2018, when OUSD parent Briana Beebe brought the idea of a College Fair to Assistant Principal Jamie Rooney. Ms. Beebe has deep roots in Ojai as a long-time business owner, and parent of OUSD students. She felt students did not have easy access to the college search process and wanted to provide an event that all NHS students could attend.
From th e outset, logistically this event was quite an undertaking. From emailing an impressive list of colleges, to following up, and coordinating with staff to ensure there was time built-in to the students' day to attend, it took many hours to get the college fair up and running.
"As always, events this size require a small army of volunteers to bring everything together," noted Ms. Beebe, who invited the Nordhoff Parent Association to partner on sourcing the College Fair. The NPA provided volunteers to help with setup, as well as providing breakfast and lunch for the College Fair exhibitors. Forty "Swag Bag" of Ojai Pixies, donated by Jim Churchill and the Ojai Pixie Growers Association, were also assembled by NPA volunteers. Finally, coffee, juice and muffins were provided for students who attended special presentations on Western Undergraduate Exchange, schools, and a Financial Aid talk for graduating Seniors.
"Nordhoff Assistant Principal, Ms. Rooney, has been an indispensable partner in planning and implementing the college fair. Without her, and the greater Nordhoff community, this event would not have been possible," noted Ms. Beebe. "We worked together to provide our students opportunities to see many post-graduation options, in addition to dispelling myths about colleges regarding affordability and entrance requirements," noted Ms. Beebe. Ms. Rooney agreed, noting that "This is especially important for our students who may be the first generation considering post secondary education. Events like this inform and empower our students to bring the most important facts back to their parents and other family decision makers"
In a recent conversation with The Ojai Valley News, Principal Dave Monson shared, "We believe getting students exposed to as many options as possible will increase their chances of finding something they are truly passionate about," Monson said. "And when they find something they're passionate about, they are more likely to see it through to completion and move closer toward a career and financial security."
After months o f effort and coordination, on the day of the College Fair, a total of 32 Universities and Colleges from as far away as Victoria, BC, Hawaii and Montana, as well as three branches of the military and four trade schools, were in attendance.
Additionally, and as part of an ongoing opportunity for Nordhoff students, AVID and CSF students visited UCLA and USC campuses last week. "This year, 44 students joined us on college tour day. The goal of this field trip is to get students on a college campus and open their eyes to opportunities that are available on a variety of college campuses," said Bronwen Cull-Michels, AVID teacher, and NHS Counselor.
As part of the campus visit selection process, students voted on a number of schools and chose UCLA and USC, and Nordhoff Teacher and Aquatics Coach Jermaine Britton, Career and College Center Coordinator Sarah Escobar, Principal Dave Monson and Ms. Cull-Miche ls chaperoned the trip. "At USC, Nordhoff Class of 2018 Alum Lily Johnson took us on a tour. Then we headed to UCLA, where we ate lunch in the Student Union, and class of 2018 Alum Jesse Kuehn took us on a tour of UCLA" Ms. Cull-Michels added that having two Ranger alums as tour guides made the tours more personal, as both Ms. Johnson and Mr. Kuehn spoke about their personal experience as new college students. "It inspired our students, seeing former Rangers achieving success on these campuses. All in all, it was a great day!"

Nutrition Services Seeks Help in Addressing Unpaid Meal Accounts
During a recent presentation to OUSD School Board, Julie Chessen, Director of Nutrition Services noted, "Since 2012, Nutrition Services has been developing relationships with local farmers to grow for Ojai Unified schools' increasing fresh fruit and vegetable demands. "Nutrition Services has developed new recipes for each new offering and brings in Harvest of the Month (HOTM) produce for special taste-testing events for our students. This helps to educate our students to try new produce choices, such as persimmons and pomegranates", noted Ms. Chessen. "Taste testing also helps us to determine 'likeability', and future ordering needs, of all new offerings, cutting down on food waste, an OUSD initiative"
Nutrition Services incorporates HOTM produce into breakfasts, snacks and lunches in appealing and inventive ways. "Our very popular Holiday meal in December, consists of tamale pie, pozole, and the Harvest of the Month carrots, locally-sourced from Steel Acres farm in Meiners Oaks," noted Ms. Chessen.
Ojai Unified Nutrition Services team serves over 1,200 nutritious and balanced meals to students everyday, but regrettably, this year OUSD Nutrition Services is struggling with an unprecedented amount of debt, due to unpaid meal accounts. Currently, monies owed to Nutrition Services from OUSD families totals over $13,000. As the California Department of Education doesn't allow its schools' Nutrition Services Departments to write-off unpaid debt, the district becomes responsible for paying the negative balances at the close of the school year. "These funds are pulled from the district general fund, which directly affects funds used for students in the classroom," noted Ms. Chessen. "We do not want to take these funds from student education, and are asking for our OUSD families to help us in balancing this debt. Our team does everything we can to keep student meal prices affordable for families. But we also have an obligation to meet our expenses, including paying vendors and staff"
Because Nutrition Services has an obligation to serve ALL students who come through the cafeteria line, "..unlike stories you may have read in the media, here at OUSD, students are never denied a meal," said Ms. Chessen.. "If a student does not have money to pay for their meal, we will charge the student's account." Moreover, students are allowed to take the same meal as everyone else, as OUSD's Nutrition Services staff will not serve a 'crackers-and-milk' type of emergency meal.
"Understandably, as ala carte items (chips, crackers, etc.) are lower in nutritional value, our Nutrition Services staff cannot allow a student to charge these items to an account with a negative balance," added Ms. Chessen. Students at Matilija and Nordhoff must pay for these items at the service window.
"At OUSD, we feel that student cafeteria accounts are in place to enable students to easily make meal purchases," said Ms. Chessen. "We understand that some families may get behind on making payments because of financial struggles," noted Ms. Chessen. "If a family is experiencing financial difficulties, even if only temporarily, we encourage those families to apply for no-cost or reduced-price meals." Ms. Chessen added that her staff can help with the application process, found here
Alternatively, debt can accrue because students forget to bring lunch money or because parents don't know their kids are charging a lunch. If parents or guardians prefer their student to not charge meals, they can find a "No Cafeteria Charging" Request Form on the Nutrition Services website under Applications & Forms here
Check your child's cafeteria account by clicking here . If you find your student does have a negative balance, please use one of the following methods to make payments:
1) Online payment through Parent Connect. If you do not have a username and password, contact your school site secretary. 2) Send check or cash with your child to the school site cafeteria manager. 3) Mail a check to OUSD Nutrition Services to the following address (please provide child's name with student identification number):Ojai Unified School District Nutrition Services, P.O. Box 878, Ojai, CA 93024
If the general public is interested in making a DONATION, please contact Julie Chessen, Director of Nutrition Services, at (805) 640-4300 ext. 1079 or jchessen@ojaiusd.org
Ojai Pixie Day: A Long-Standing OUSD Tradition
Mira Monte Leadership Students help to bag Ojai Pixies
Since 2008, around the 2nd week of April, Ojai Pixie Growers have been delivering truckloads of the unique and tantalizing tangerine as a gift to OUSD students and staff. To help explain the beginnings of this tradition, we caught up with Jim Churchill, one of Ojai's original Pixie Growers, and co-founder of The Ojai Pixie Growers Association. Mr. Churchill had just returned from a Pixie "junket" in Iowa when we spoke. Mr. Churchill noted that he and Emily Ayala of Friends Ranch travel to other states to share their love of the Ojai Pixie with wholesalers, grocery stores and customers.
Mr. Churchill has been farming in the Ojai Valley since 1978. "I knew nothing at all about Pixies," noted Mr. Churchill, and he credits his now life-long love of the Pixie tangerine to a visit with Tony Thacher, owner and operator of Friends Ranch. "At that time, I had 37 acres of bacon avocados, and the market changed. They just stopped buying the avocados," said Mr. Churchill. So, he had to make a change as well.
As he was considering other crops to plant, and during a discussion with Mr. Thacher at the Friends Ranch Packing House, Churchill noticed the small tangerines, and tried one. He liked the taste of the tangerine, and asked Thacher, "Do you sell them?" Mr. Thacher responded that his father-in-law , Elmer Friend, had planted 200 trees just prior to the floods that devastated the Ojai Valley in 1969, and only two trees had survived. The trees produced enough for his family, and "... my kids eat all the Pixies." From these humble beginnings, an idea formed. And, In 1981, Tony Thacher and Jim Churchill became the original Pixie growers in the valley, forming The Ojai Pixie Growers Association, which is now comprised of over 60 local farmers.
More than 30 years later, one of the Friends Ranch "kids" is current Ojai Pixie Grower, and fifth-generation Friends Ranch farmer, Emily Ayala. Ms. Ayala is understandably proud of the Friends Ranch history. "We've been ranching in the Ojai Valley since the 1870s, and we've always been teachers and farmers. Education and Agriculture are the two loves of our family," said Ms. Ayala, noting that it's perhaps because "Both are good, honest professions."
Although the Pixie fruit was developed by the University of California at Riverside in the 1960s, the Ojai Valley is the only place they're grown commercially. Ms. Ayala noted that the popularity of the Pixie has to do with the fact they're very low acid, easy to peel, and they don't have seeds. "Basically, they're a kid-friendly fruit," she said.
According to Mr. Churchill, the now ten-year tradition of delivering truck-loads of free Ojai Pixies to local schools and students, was Ms. Ayala's idea. "We had one year where we had smaller fruit - called a "pony" size - and Emily Ayala at Friends Ranch came up with the idea to give these away to the schools," said Mr. Churchill. "This year we are delivering to all 8 OUSD school sites, as well as Sunset school in Oak View," said Ms. Ayala.
The best part about the Pixie delivery, according to Ms. Ayala, is that "The local students' moms, dads, and grandparents who pick the fruit are excited to be associated with the delivery, part of an agricultural family. This may be the only time they're really honored and made to feel proud of what they do," said Ms. Ayala. She remembers that "The very first year we visited Topa Topa school, a little girl burst into tears, saying 'My grandfather works so hard"'. She was made to feel proud of her grandfathers efforts because all the kids loved the Pixies so much. Ms. Ayala, and all of the Ojai Pixie Growers Association families, look forward to delivering Pixies to the students at Ojai Unified Schools for years to come.

Meiners Oaks Elementary: Perfect Partnerships
Ojai Rotary members visited Meiners Oaks Elementary on Arbor Day
On Friday, April 26th, Meiners Oaks Elementary celebrated Arbor Day by inviting Ojai Rotary to lunch, to view special student projects and plant trees on the school grounds. "It was a perfect day, and another example of the partnerships that are so vital to our schools," said Theresa Dutter, Meiners Oaks Elementary Principal. "We certainly thank these very dedicated residents, retirees, business professionals and business owners without whom we would not be able to complete many of our ongoing projects". Ms. Dutter noted that the celebration included singing an Arbor Day song with the after-school TK/K cub club kids"
"Speaking of ongoing projects, Spring has sprung in our Transitional Kindergarten/Kindergarten classrooms, and our students have been experiencing the wonderful changes the earth has to offer," said Ms. Dutter. Art and Science curriculum are combined, as students are learning the plant life cycle while planting seeds and growing beautiful zinnias in a hand-painted pot. "These projects will be ready to go home just in time for TK/K student gifts for Mother's Day," said Ms. Dutter.
Students are also starting a caterpillar habitat in the classroom to help them learn about the life cycle of a butterfly. "After three weeks of observation, we will be releasing our butterflies into our butterfly garden, located in the TK/K playground," said Ms. Dutter.

JHA Multifactor Authentication provides an end-to-end solution for two-factor authentication that enables credit union members to conduct online transactions with confidence. It helps credit unions meet regulations recommended by the FFIEC to implement two-factor authentication.
JHA Multifactor Authentication can identify members based on three factors – something they know, something they have, or who they are. This cost-effective, secure, and member-friendly alternative to tokens builds member profiles using device ID, IP address, transaction types, and dollar amounts. Members do not have to enroll, change the login process, download software, or buy hardware. The user's device ID is used as the second factor for authentication. As an operational alternative, a personalized watermark graphic is automatically displayed when members correctly access the credit online banking site. When the correct graphic image is verified, members can complete the login process by entering their password.
Builds a profile for each member that includes device IDs, IP address, transaction types, and dollar amounts.
Is invisible to more than 99 percent of members and only visible during risky and fraudulent transactions (less than one percent of all cases).
Requires no downloading of software or buying any hardware for members.
Invokes additional authentication for risky transactions only, by either using a challenge response or an out-of-band, near-real-time automated telephone call.
Provides members with a "cookieless" personalized watermark graphic when they correctly access the credit union's legitimate Web site.
Allows the member to select from a library of tens of thousands of unique images.
Reduces the possibility of an Internet fraudster accessing member data using stolen credentials.
Provides invisible security to members as they use online banking.
Instills member confidence and trust.
Provides Internet banking members with a consistent and simple online experience.
Helps credit unions comply with regulatory requirements.

Pakistan doesn't want India at OIC moot
by News Desk , (Last Updated March 1, 2019)
–FM Qureshi says he is ready to meet Indian FM but not at OIC
–Says Saudi FM to arrive in Islamabad with message from MBS
–Says things wouldn't be this bad if India had given dossier concerning Pulwama attack earlier
Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi on Thursday once again expressed apprehension over the participation of his Indian counterpart Sushma Swaraj in a meeting of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) scheduled to be held in United Arab Emirates (UAE) next month.
In a brief chat with reporters, the foreign minister said he has relayed these concerns to the UAE government which had invited Swaraj as a guest speaker for the inaugural session of the conference.
"India was neither a member of the OIC nor an observer," said Qureshi, adding Pakistan should have been consulted before sending out such an invitation.
He, however, didn't rule out a meeting with Indian FM, saying he was ready to meet his counterpart but the OIC moot was not the [right] place.
Qureshi also said the Saudi foreign minister was expected to visit Pakistan with a special message from Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, who visited both Pakistan and India earlier this month.
In response to a question regarding the closure of Pakistan's airspace, the foreign minister said, "The airspace has been closed for national and passenger security. It was SOP [standard operating procedure]. We want the airspace to open at the earliest."
Earlier in the day, Qureshi gave an interview to Geo News, where he had suggested Pakistan was ready to release Indian pilot if it would help ease tensions.
His statement was endorsed by the prime minister in a joint session of parliament. "Pakistan will release Indian pilot on Friday," said Imran Khan as he extended an olive branch to India.
Reiterating Pakistan's commitment to peace, the foreign minister said the Pakistani PM was ready to talk to counterpart Narendra Modi on phone. "Is Modi ready?" he asked.
Asserting that Pakistan has been calling for peace since day one, Qureshi said, "If India wants to talk about terrorism then we are ready."
"Our wish is peace and stability is our top priority," he maintained.
In a comment on dossier given by India to Pakistani high commissioner, the foreign minister said Pakistan will examine the dossier, but there was no need to attack if they had given it earlier and waited for Pakistan's response.
Meanwhile, Foreign Office Spokesperson Dr Muhammad Faisal said that a dossier was received from India regarding the Pulwama incident.
In a media briefing, the spokesperson said the Foreign Office will review the dossier and action will be taken on any actionable intelligence if found in the dossier regarding the Pulwama attack, as it has been assured by Pakistan.
The premier had already announced the offer of investigation, the spokesman said.
He reiterated that Pakistan is ready for dialogue with India on all issues including terrorism. "We should also hold talks on the issues other than terrorism," Dr Faisal urged.
He said, "We have activated the UN Military Observer Group for India and Pakistan and the Group will be taken for a visit to the site where the Indian Airforce jets were shot down."
"Pakistan has a clear position with regard to the arrested Indian pilot," the spokesman said. "He is safe and healthy. Pakistan Army personnel saved him from the angry mob.
"India has raised the issue of the captured pilot with Pakistan … Any decision with regard to giving him the status of a prisoner of war or not, is yet to be taken. The convention which is applicable to the arrested pilot will be decided in a day or two."
Talking on Pakistan's participation in the OIC meeting, the spokesman clarified that if Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will attend the session, Pakistan's foreign minister will not show up in the meeting.
He said both the countries have been in touch with the world community over the situation, adding that Pakistan has clarified its position with the countries talking about the allegations of terrorism.
"If there is an issue of terrorism, still India has no right to violate the border. If any legal justification being given for it then Pakistan could also do so," the spokesman said.
He said Pakistan has already initiated the action against terrorists under its National Action Plan.
Tensions between Pakistan and India have escalated dramatically after a suicide bomber struck an Indian paramilitary convoy in Kashmir's Pulwama district. The attack had left 44 personnel dead.
India claimed Jaish-e-Mohammed was behind the attack and intruded into Pakistan airspace to bomb an alleged JeM camp on Feb 26.
The attack prompted a strong response from Pakistan. It warned against "uncalled for aggression" and decided that the country would respond at a "time and place of its choosing".
Next day, it launched airstrike within Indian-held Kashmir and also shot down two fighter jets that attempted to violate Pakistani airspace, capturing an Indian pilot as well.
The military's media wing later released a video of the pilot, who introduced himself as Wing Commander Abhinandan bearing service number 27981.

Q: List this PSCustomObject as a Table I made a short "quick and dirty" PS-Script that compares two folders which sould normaly have the same files in it. So i use the Get-FileHashFunction to compare all Files.
I have an PSCustomObject in which all checks are documented. At the end i want to write this PSCustomObject as a Table to the console. But i don't get it...
This is my Object:
PS C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0> $statushash | Get-Member

What i want is a table like i can get using gci (for example):
PS C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0> gci | Select Name, Mode, Extension, Attributes

Name                          Mode   Extension Attributes

I tried it already with $hashstatus | Format-Table or with $statushash | Select -expand * But it doesn't work.
Sorry for this stupid question but i am not a PS pro and i really don't get it... Thank you in advance for your help!
EDIT:
Here is the part where i initialized the Custom Object:
$statushash = New-Object PSCustomObject
    $statushash | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name FileSrv1 -Value @()
    $statushash | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name FileSrv2 -Value @()
    $statushash | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name Hash1 -Value @()
    $statushash | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name Hash2 -Value @()
    $statushash | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name Check -Value @()

A: As mentioned in the comments i rewrote this part. As Frode F. said i made an array of PSCustomObject's:
$statushash = @()

function comparefile ($file1, $file2){

   $erg = New-Object PSCustomObject
    $erg | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name FileSrv1 -Value $file1.Name
    $erg | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name Hash1 -Value (Get-FileHash -Algorithm MD5 $file1.Fullname | select -Expand Hash)
    $erg | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name FileSrv2 -Value $file2.Name
    $erg | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name Hash2 -Value (Get-FileHash -Algorithm MD5 $file2.Fullname | select -Expand Hash)
    $erg | add-member -MemberType NoteProperty -name Check -Value $false

    if($erg.hash1 -eq $erg.hash2){
        $erg.check = $true
    }
    else{
        $erg.check = $false
    }
    return $erg
}

for ([...]){
    $statushash += comparefile $List1[$i] $List2[$i]
}

$statushash | Format-Table *

Works now. Thank you.

The skyscraper buildings shown in Lang's future city tend to be plain and functional, in a style closer to the both New York skyscrapers and the Bauhaus than to Gothic cathedrals.

Athenodorus was cautious since the house was inexpensive. Men in their teens and twenties would join them, and made mystical pledges of brotherhood with other young men.
Alfred Abel, so impressive as the Master of Metropolis, gets a thankless role as the wimpy Count. Only the shot of liquor and cigars has the items arranged in the flat, rectilinear patterns of the true "massed item" shots found in later Lang.

Q: "I was intrigued about the event" Vs. "I was curious about the event" Are the words "intrigued" and "curious" are simply synonyms or there are different uses for each one of them?
For example:

"I was intrigued about the event yesterday morning."

Vs.

"I was curious about the event yesterday morning."

By the definition of Cambridge dictionary it seems that to be "intrigued" is stronger than "curious". Isn't it?

A: I believe "intrigued" is not followed by "about" but rather followed by "by" and "with."
On the other hand, "curious" is almost always followed by "about."
If you look carefully at these two, you'll realize that if you want to talk "about" something you should use the feeling of "curious" whereas you should use the feeling of "intrigued" when you talk about "an idea" or "an event."
Does this help?

Preserve Johnson Valley, Fathers Day Race To The Finish!

Give Dad the Gift of Open Access to Public Lands
June 6th, 2013: JOHNSON VALLEY, CA: Off road enthusiasts can give their dads the gift of open access to public lands this Father's Day by donating to the Save The Hammers fund in their father's name. Thanks to Falken Tire, any private donations made to the fund at www.savethehammers.org between now and June 16th will be doubled. Falken Tire has graciously agreed to match all private donations up to a total amount of $5,000 between now and Father's Day in an effort to raise an additional $10,000 for the cause.
The volunteers working to save the land are currently engaged in a fund raising campaign to raise $31,000: An amount they hope will be enough to help get a federal bill passed into law which would declare the 188,000 acres of public land a National OHV Park. Just over $6,000 of the necessary $31,000 has been raised to date. With Falken Tire's offer to match donations made in the next ten days, the goal is to pass the halfway mark in fundraising efforts by Father's Day.
Currently, the bill is in Congress where it has passed both the Natural Resources Committee and the Armed Services Committee and has been added to the National Defense Authorization Act (HR 1960) which is expected to go for a vote before the full Congress by month's end. From there, the bill will move on to the Senate, where the bill will also go through several committees before being voted on by the Senate and then given to the President to sign into law.
Those wishing to donate are encouraged to post a picture of their father to a social media site of their choosing with a message about Saving Johnson Valley and a link to the www.savethehammers.org site to encourage others to do the same. Donators are also encouraged to post their dad's pictures to the Save The Hammers facebook page at www.facebook.com/savethehammers to tell others about their dad and why they made a donation in his name.
