Georgia appeals court rules that apartment complex may limit time to pursue personal injury claims in residential lease
Posted by John Hadden | May 01, 2018 | 0 Comments
Update: On October 21, 2019, the Georgia Supreme Court reversed the decision of the Court of Appeals in this case, holding that the contractual one-year statute of limitation stated in the apartment lease contract did not apply to the victim's personal injury claim. Read more about the Supreme Court's decision in our blog post here.
Today, the Georgia Court of Appeals issues a ruling that could have a significant effect on personal injury claims involving landlord-tenant claims (including premises liability/negligent security cases) and other types of claims where the parties have entered into a written contract.
In Langley v. MP Spring Lake, LLC, (Case no. 18A0193, May 1, 2018), the Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's ruling granting summary judgment to the defendant (the owner of an apartment complex in Morrow, Georgia). The case arose as a premises liability personal injury claim, where the plaintiff alleged that a dangerous or hazardous condition at the properly led to an injury to the plaintiff. In this case, the plaintiff alleged that a crumbling curb at the apartment complex had caused her to fall and be injured. Under Georgia law, a plaintiff filing a lawsuit for a premises liability injury must show that the property owner (or occupier, such as a management company or other person or entity responsible for the property) knew or should have known of a hazardous or dangerous condition, and the plaintiff must further show that this owner or occupier knowledge was superior to that of the plaintiff. In other words, if the plaintiff has equal or greater knowledge of a hazardous condition as the property owner, then the plaintiff cannot successfully make a claim. Many premises liability cases (including negligent security, slip and fall, and trip and fall cases) are dismissed through summary judgment because the court determines that the plaintiff cannot prove the superior knowledge of the property owner.
But that isn't what happened in this case. Here, the trial court and the Georgia Court of Appeals ruled that the terms of the lease required that any lawsuit filed by a tenant be filed within one year of the injury. Generally, Georgia has a two-year statute of limitation for personal injury claims: subject to some exceptions that occasionally apply (including in cases involving criminal charges, minors, and people who are incompetent), a claim alleging a personal injury caused by the negligence of another person or entity must be filed no later than the second anniversary of the injury. Some claims, such as loss of consortium (four years) and defamation claims (one year) have different periods.
The plaintiff entered into a lease agreement with the defendant that was in effect at the time of the tenant's injury. Deep within the lease contract, the lease contained a provision stating that
To the extent allowed by law, Resident also agrees and understands that any legal action against Management or Owner must be instituted within one year of the date any claim or cause of action arises and that any action filed after one year from such date shall be time barred as a matter of law.
The apartment complex argued that this clause required a personal injury lawsuit to be filed within one year of the injury, and here, the injured plaintiff filed suit later than one year after the injury (but before the statutory two-year period). The plaintiff argued, at the trial and appellate courts, that the provision simply didn't apply because the claim did not arise out of the contract - in other words, the plaintiff's status as a tenant was largely irrelevant to whether or not she had a claim, and she was not filing suit under the contract. Although contractual agreements to shorten the statute of limitation have been upheld in Georgia's appellate courts, all previous rulings have involved claims that were directly connected to the parties' duties under the contract. For example, in cases involving homeowners' insurance, Georgia courts have agreed that the insurer can limit the time to file a claim for breach of the insurance contract to one year (in some cases). But Langley was not seeking a claim for breach of contract, and therefore those cases are distinguishable.
It remains to be seen whether the Langley decision will have implications beyond landlord-tenant cases. In theory, the court's rationale could allow any parties who have a contractual relationship to also limit other types of claims. For example, the seller of a car could try to limit the amount of time someone could sue the seller or manufacturer for defects in the car, or a nursing home could limit the time allowed to sue the facility for the injury or death of a loved one (nursing home contracts already frequently make it difficult to recover). It is even conceivable that, beyond limiting the time to file a lawsuit, a landlord could insert a provision limiting the amount of damages a victim could claim, although it is highly questionable whether such a provision would be enforceable.
At a minimum, anyone with a claim against a person or entity should carefully consider whether or not he or she has a contract of any sort with the prospective defendant. If so, that contract should be reviewed to determine whether it limits the rights otherwise permitted by law, and if so, the victim should make sure to be in compliance with those provisions to avoid a contractual defense.

Redgrave the man to help Daley
metrowebukmetroFriday 8 Aug 2008 9:35 am
Good night's sleep: Tom Daley
Teenage diving sensation Tom Daley has revealed he sleeps easier in his bed after taking advice from five-time Olympic champion Sir Steve Redgrave.
The 14-year-old from Plymouth makes his Games debut on Monday in the men's synchronised 10m platform alongside Blake Aldridge.
Despite his young age Daley appears to be coping with the attention which has focused on him ever since he was confirmed as the youngest British Olympian since Ken Lester in 1960.
In February he competed at the World Cup in the Water Cube Olympic venue, where he booked his place in the British team, but his experience of major events is understandably limited.
But he intends to use his previous visit to Beijing, and some words of wisdom from Redgrave, to help him in competition.
'There have been lots of different experiences I've had; the World Cup was the biggest competition I've done so far and that was in the Olympic pool and there was a big crowd there so that was good,' said Daley, who also competes in the 10m platform individual event.
'Leon Taylor (2004 Olympic silver medallist) is one of my mentors, but I also have Sir Steve Redgrave and Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson to contact when I feel it necessary to ask them about different experiences to get myself ready for the Olympics.
'I used to struggle sleeping before a competition and I asked Steve what happens if you can't sleep and he said it doesn't matter, you can still perform.
'Now I know that is the case it makes me fall to sleep easy as I know it is not a problem. It all helps me have a smoother journey.'
Daley was the star attraction at the diving team's press conference today, fielding the majority of questions from the world's media.
And when he left the room to walk to his bus to take him back to the athletes' village he was mobbed by several television crews, whose cameras tracked his every footstep.
The attention is something which Daley is still getting used to.
'In China diving is quite a big sport so you do get some people recognising you in the village,' he added.
'When you are little you always dream of being the person up there more famous and it is kind of weird to start becoming that and being recognised because you don't expect that to happen to you.'

Q: Is Ardent Censer still viable during late game? I want to know if Ardent Censer IS viable for supports during late games considering:

*

*Abilities/Skills :
Some supports benefit their team a lot, some may benefit his own a lot. I'm talking about AoE shields/heals that can really  take advantage of it but in exchange for other items.

*Situations
If your team is much of an AD-based and the team has at least 2 AP, will AC be useful as a Solari does? Will AC + AP Stack (for better heal/shield)/ Tank items (if Alistar/Leona) be better?

*Value of other (Support/Situational) Items
Is the buff really that useful considering that in late game, tanks are REAL tanks with their Omen all over their body, as well as Thornmail/Frozen Heart? Also, if ASPD is useful for AD damagers, why not use Zeke's Herald instead?
I just love the + movement speed items without being useless to my team so I'm thinking if it's worth building in decent elo ranked games .

A: It is actually A pretty decent Item during any stage of the game. Similar to ohmwrecker it's not bad but heavily underused and very situational.
Now In the lategame it somehow loses a bit of its potential, however it can still be great for objectives like Baron, Dragon or Turrets. Especially on Chapions with AOE Heals/Shields like Karma, Janna or Alistar.
But should you buy it all the time? No.
It's really good if you can grab one early in the game on champions like Janna or Sona but if you haven't gotten it by 25-30 minutes you should probably go for more Tankiness instead of the Censer. Maybe if you go Full AP or if you are just trolling around you can still pick it up later in the game but there are definitely items that will show a bigger benefit for your team (Randuins/Locket etc).

A: I wouldn't build it except towards the end of your build order.  Wards, basic survivability (for you and your carries) are much more important than a small buff like Censure provides.

Perfect 0252 – Walter Roland – 1933
Recorded in the deepest depths of the Great Depression, I offer to you these two boogie woogie piano tunes from the brief recording career of the skilled Alabama blues man Walter Roland.
Walter Roland was born in December of either 1902 or 1903 in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama—the twentieth of December is most often given as his birth date. He was working as a musician by the 1920s, playing both piano and guitar and singing. Though Roland remained an active musician until the end of his life, he recorded only a few times in the 1930s. In 1933, Roland traveled to New York with guitar player Sonny Scott to record for the American Record Corporation, and would return twice between then and 1935. During those trips, he recorded solo, and also played as an accompanist with Lucille Bogan and Joshua White, as well as part of the "Jolly Jivers" with Scott and Bogan. Some of his records were released under the pseudonym Alabama Sam. After returning home, Roland did not make another recording, but continued to play music. By the 1950s, he was a farmer, but sometimes worked as a street musician. Sometime in the 1960s, he was blinded by buckshot after trying to break up an altercation between neighbors, and he retired in the later part of that decade. Roland died of lung cancer October 12, 1972 in Fairfield, Alabama.
Perfect 0252 was recorded over two consecutive days on July 19 and 20, 1933 in New York City, Roland's second released disc from his ARC sessions. It got an honorable mention in 78 Quarterly's famous "Rarest 78s" column. These ARC race records seldom turn up in very good condition, and this one is no exception, but thankfully, despite a few brief blasts of noise, the music is still prominent.
Roland's first number is the classic "Early This Morning ('Bout Break of Day)", his own version of Charlie Spand's "Soon This Morning". Unfortunately, the text on the label has faded away completely, leaving only the faintest trace of what was originally printed. This side was recorded on the July 20 date. Roland also recorded the same tune the previous day, accompanying his guitar-playing associate Sonny Scott.

On the flip side, Roland plays and sings "House Lady Blues", a piano blues masterpiece. This one was recorded on the earlier date of July 19.

I've always heard that when you are overwhelmed by things that you have to do (or want to do) you should choose 3 to 5 things and put everything else out of sight and out of mind and just focus on those things that you have chosen. In theory you should choose a long term project ( like hand quilting my Dear Jane), a medium project, and something you can complete quickly like a quilt binding.
Well, while I've been been working on getting focused and choosing those projects, I decided to make just a couple of the Scrappy Trip blocks that I've been seeing everywhere on the internet.
The block on the left is made from strips pulled from my scrap bag. While sorting and organizing my Kaffe fabrics, I found these 2 1/2" strips used in the second block. I think they could both be used in the same quilt.
I've been sewing once a week with a group of ladies at church that are making charity quilts, little girl's dresses, and pillowcases. I made this pillowcase, and our cat Tiki decided to investigate. He came to our door the week before Halloween wanting a friend and some food, and we took him in. My daughter named him Mortimer since we brought him inside 2 days before Halloween, but he answers to Tiki. You can find my hot dog pillowcase tutorial here.
I visited Daniel today. He is such a happy guy, and I just love him to pieces.
Hope you are stitching today.
Thimbles, Tumblers and Hexies....Oh My!
I was going to post my New Year's resolutions the first of the year, and now I'm glad that I didn't because most have gone by the wayside already. One resolution was to post to my blogs more often (or at least somewhat consistently), and you see how well that's going. Another resolution was to get organized. Well........I took a before photo of my sewing room, took everything out, sorted, organized (or so I thought), and now that I've put it all back in it actually looks worse than before I started. For those of you that have been over to my crochet blog, you know that I also have a yarn stash. I switched some things around and now it doesn't seem to want to fit. So the solution? I'm still working on that.
My family says that I need to have the word FOCUS tattooed on the inside of my eyelids. Did I also mention that I got an IPad for Christmas and that has taken up quite a bit some of my time?
Meanwhile, I wanted to share some things that I found in my sewing room. I had a basket under my sewing table with a red bag of little 1 1/2" nine patches that I had leftover from this quilt. There are 964 of the 1 1/2" finished nine patches in this quilt set with alternate squares. I entered it in the Hoosier Heritage Quilt Show in Bloomington, Indiana, a couple of years ago and won a Judge's Recognition ribbon.
Underneath the bag of leftover nine patches I found this tin of red and white tumblers (thimbles) that I'd cut.
They are 1 3/4" high so will finish at 1 1/4".
Then there was a bag of tumblers cut from repro fabrics. I remember I had started cutting them from charm squares when Kathie's tumbler quilt appeared on the front cover of Sew Scrappy magazine.
I need to count them. There might be enough for a quilt top.
While sorting, I discovered that you can cut a 3 1/2" and a 1 3/4" tumbler (thimble) from one charm square. That was one of the times when I lost my focus.
Continuing to the bottom of the basket there was a bag of 3 1/2" tumblers cut from my 30s fabrics. I need to count these, too.
Another bag with 1 3/4" thimbles cut from 30s fabrics. Looks like there are 197.
I am still hand quilting this little quilt made from a bag of little tumblers that I won on Kathie's blog Inspired by Antique Quilts.
Then I found this little Christmas elf in red work. Roswitha from Blauraute blog sent me the pattern for this quilt a couple of years ago. I have all of the patterns traced. I hate to think how long this little guy has been stuck in this hoop.
Then there are more hexies. I have been working on other hexagons off and on and had forgotten about these. These are mostly stitched over those plastic templates that you remove with a stick. I really prefer using the paper pieces. If you look closely at the photo there are hexagons in brights, some in 30s and a few others in ????
The thing is that I found enough in that one basket to keep me busy for 6 months...maybe a year....and there are drawers of fabric.
I have fallen wayyyyy behind on responding to blog comments, but I really appreciate all of your kind words and visits to my blog.
This is the red and white antique quilt that I showed you around Christmas. My Grandmother made this quilt. She was born in 1890 and died in 1923 so this quilt is at least 90 years old. You can see there are several places where the quilt is torn or has simply worn away. When my children were small, we used this as a cover on their beds. That was a long, long time before I ever became a quilter and knew the value of this quilt.
I received a couple of questions about the block used in this quilt. The block is a traditional Jacob's Ladder block, and I've drawn an outline around the block.
Here is my Electric Quilt drawing to show how the blocks are arranged.
There are 30 of these blocks in the drawing above. This block measures 12 inches finished.
I made the half square triangles from 5 inch squares that I'd previously cut. When you make half square triangles using this method you find the finished size and add 7/8". That would be 4 7/8", but since I already had 5 inch squares I used those and trimmed a tiny bit off.
There are lots of ways to make half square triangles, but I decided to use this method since I found this ruler/tool in a box in the closet. This is called the quick quarter, and comes in two lengths. I have the 8 inch.
This is pretty easy. Sew on the solid lines then cut on the dashed line.
The half square triangles measure 4 1/2" unfinished, and the four patches are 2 1/2" squares or they could be strip pieced.
I've been working to catch up on Easy Street. I'm seeing lots of gorgeous finished quilt tops showing up while reading blogs. I really need to clean and sort through things in my sewing room, but I don't want to get all of these pieces mixed up....so I'm working to sew them together into one piece before I can walk away from this project for awhile.
All of our snow has melted...our temperature reached almost 60 yesterday so today the outside Christmas lights will come down. We still have several neighbors that have their Christmas decorations out. I still have my trees up. I kind of feel that it's ok as long as there is snow on the ground so it feels like Christmas. But today it looks and feels like spring (even though I know it isn't yet) so the Christmas will get packed away and then maybe there will be time for a little sewing.
Do any of you still have Christmas decorations up/out?
Thanks for stopping by! Hope you are having a nice weekend.
I want to show you the gifts that my friend, Roswitha from Blauraute blog sent me for Christmas all the way from Germany. She does beautiful red work, and she knows I like angels and snowmen. This Christmas she sent me the angel pillow and this Patchwork magazine in German. I don't speak German but I've put fabric requirements and directions into Google translator for things I'd like to make and I think that will work just fine.
Here is the pillow that Roswitha sent me last Christmas. I love the snowman and she even matched the fabric.
This is the gingerbread man chain that I won on her blog over a year ago. I guessed the number of spools that she had in a photo, and this is what I won. This chain hangs over our mantle at Christmas.
I love these little gingerbread men.
When my Grandson, Daniel, was born last March, Roswitha made this blue teddy bear chain and sent it to hang in his bedroom.
I love all the little touches of crochet and ribbons on these chains. I love seeing this whenever I go to visit Daniel.
Thank you again Roswitha for the beautiful and thoughtful gifts.
Since it's the beginning of a new year and we've had some time to take a deep breath and relax after the hustle and bustle of Christmas, a lot of us are thinking about getting organized. As quilters, I think the first step is to not only take a look at our fabric stash but also to take stock of our UFOs. We all start the year promising ourselves that we will stay away from quilt shops and use the fabric we have stashed away at home and finish the things that we have started. So I'm starting the year with that plan in mind.
I've been trying to come up with some sort of plan to try and finish up some of my projects and am still working on it. I haven't sorted through all of my UFOs yet, but I thought I would just show you a few of them.
I love the color in these hexagons. I'm not sure what kind of quilt they will end up in. Maybe that's why they have been around and unfinished for so long....no plan.
These are a few of the baskets from When The Cold Wind Blows by Blackbird Designs. These have been UFOs for quite awhile, too. Maybe I need to be realistic and just finish the ones that I have finished and do the ones that I have prepped and make them into a quilt that I can enjoy now.
Building Houses from Scraps. I love these little houses, but they took me a long time to make. I just have a few of these.
These blocks were started when I read Sonoma Rose by Jennier Chiaverini. There was a line drawing of the block in the book, so I made a few of these. Okay, I stopped after these three.
This is from the book Friendship Strips and Scraps by Edyta Sitar. The top is finished and just needs quilting. I like scrappy quilts, but I think this one might be just a bit too scrappy for me and maybe that's why it isn't finished.
I really love this Aunt Sarah quilt that I saw in one of the Australian magazines. I want to make it brighter than the one they show in the magazine, so I started making 3/4" hexagons that are a lot brighter than those shown in the photo.
This is called The Leftover Quilt. I first saw the pattern and quilt on Ellen's blog, Little Jewel Quilts, and I rewrote the pattern to use 2 1/2" strips. I have enough blocks cut to make a larger quilt. The black and white nine patches make a great leader/ender project. I blogged about it here.
This is my Phebe center. I have started the center over again. For me, this is going to be a long term project.
Phebe stars. I realized that these are the wrong sized stars for the inside border with sashing so they will have to be ripped out. They will work in the outer border though.
One of the experiments from my post On Point Quilt from Charm Squares found here.
This quilt is one that I drew up in Electric Quilt. I made it in another colorway that you can see here.
I've been working on this one off and on for awhile now. It is all quilted, and I sewed the binding on. After looking at it, I really think it needs a border. So I tore the binding off and decided I was going to add a black border on it along with batting and backing and then quilt it. It has kind of turned into a nightmare project.
This little tumbler is from a kit I won from Kathie over at Inspired by Antique Quilts blog. I am hand quilting straight lines vertically on this one and have about 1/4 of it finished.
Extra Christmas present blocks that I made from charm squares. You can see my post on how to make this smaller version here.
My jelly roll race quilt from our Dear Jane retreat in Shipshewana last fall.
My Orca Bay that still needs the plain inner border and the pieced outer border.
These Bonnie Hunter mystery quilts are really neat looking once you get them all put together. I will finish the border soon, but her quilts have so many pieces that I like to at least get the blocks put together before I can walk away from it.
These are just a few of my UFOs. I have more in different stages that I plan to make some decisions on...either get them out and work on them or pass them on to someone that will.
Happy New Year to all of you! Just for fun, I thought I'd go back through my photos from the past year to see how many quilt related projects I'd actually finished. Here are the ones that I could find that are completely finished.
This table topper and tutorial along with the Norwegian Christmas Hearts table cover in the second photo were posted on Sew We Quilt as part of a month of runners and table toppers in March.
Here are a couple of heart table toppers I made. One is made using string blocks and the other is half square triangles for those that don't enjoy making string blocks.
Dresden quilt as you go table topper.
Trip around the world quilt for my grandson done in Funky Monkey fabrics by Moda .
Two flag little quilts from the Little Quilts book along with a knit red, white and blue dishcloth for July 4th.
A Christmas table topper/little quilt I made from a challenge the previous year. A lot of the fabrics were supplied to us to see what we could make.
A Daffodil table topper that I machine quilted and finished this past summer.
This was an old UFO: nine patch and applique' quilt. I finished the applique' border and machine quilting this summer.
This is a quilt that I saw in a magazine and fell in love with. It is in an article featuring Sarah Richardson's summer house. This is the quilt hanging in her guest room. I drafted the quilt in Electric Quilt, pieced the top and machine quilted it this past year. I have a tutorial that I plan to post sometime this year.
The handsome guy on the quilt is my grandson, Daniel, born March 21, 2012.
Here is a better look at the quilt.
This is another little quilt/table topper that I gifted to a friend for her birthday this past summer.
This is another Dresden Plate table topper. This one along with the tutorial was part of the Wicked Blog Hop for Halloween at Sew We Quilt.
Another table topper for Halloween using an experiment I tried by sewing squares together into a rectangular shape and then sewing them back together to make an on point quilt. The post can be found here.
This table runner and pillow were made as part of the Holiday Lane blog hop over at Sew We Quilt.

Mike McCarthy is 22-13 ATS in that spot since 2006. Mike Tomlin is 17-13 ATS in that spot since 2007. Sean Payton is 20-12 ATS in that spot since 2006. Of the current NFL Head Coaches who have won a Super Bowl with their current team, only Tom Coughlin (27-24 ATS) doesn't have a very impressive ATS record off a loss.
Jim Harbaugh doesn't have a Super Bowl ring yet like the 5 I just mentioned, but everything he's done so far suggests he'll be in that group someday. He's already got a very impressive, albeit limited, resume off a loss or tie, going 7-1 ATS and 8-0 SU. That one ATS loss was only because he declined a safety late against Seattle and it could have been a push depending on the line you got (it opened at -7, but went towards -9 before the game and the 49ers won by 7). Not only is he 7-0 in those games, but he's doing it in impressive fashion, winning by an average of 17.8 points per game.
That being said, these 16.5 points are begging me to take them. This line is ridiculous. It's the biggest one of the season, even bigger than Denver/Kansas City this week. I know the 49ers are very good and the Cardinals are bad, but it's not like they're the best team in the league and the worst team in the league. The Cardinals have lost just 2 games by more than 17 points this season. The biggest line anyone has covered this season is -13 (Houston/Tennessee), as 13+ favorites are 1-5 ATS this season.
Using the net points per drive method of computing line value, we can see the line value. The 49ers rank 5th at 0.70, while the Cardinals rank 25th at -0.34. If you take the difference, multiply it by 11 (the average amount of drives per team per game) and add 2.5 points for home field, you get that San Francisco should be -14 here instead of -16.5. That might not seem like a ton, but it's significant and it makes sense. For some reason, this line has shifted 1.5 points in San Francisco's favor in the last week as it was -15 last week. All the 49ers have done in the last week is get blown out.
That calculated real line also doesn't take into account these two teams' injury situations. Justin Smith is out for the 49ers and in the 6 quarters he's been out for, they've allowed 76 points. You can't blame that all on Smith's absence, but, on a defense full of talented players, he was their one irreplaceable player. He is constantly double teamed and frees up Aldon Smith (who has not so coincidentally seen a serious lack of production in the 6 quarters without Justin). Of all the elite pass rushers in the NFL, no one sees double teams less frequently than Aldon Smith, part of the reason why I feel he does not deserve defensive player of the year (which I'll get into after this week).
Arizona, meanwhile, also has a stud 5-technique, Calais Campbell. He's returned from injury and their defense has been playing better since, particularly in their last 2 games (he was limited in his first game back). In those 2 games, they've allowed a combined 24 points (14 of the Bears' points were off returns and should not count against the defense). The quarterback situation in Arizona makes them a risk, but we're getting so many points here that I'm not afraid at all to take the Cardinals, who are 3-0 ATS in the last 2 years as 12+ favorites (including 2 straight up wins).
Public lean: Arizona (50% range)

HOBBS, N.M. (AP) - Authorities say a southeastern New Mexico sheriff has died in a crash.
The Lea County Sheriff's Office said Sheriff Steve Ackerman died Tuesday as a result of injuries he sustained in the crash. There were no passengers the vehicle.
The office says New Mexico State Police is handling the investigation. No other details were immediately available.
It's believed that Ackerman may have been heading to Santa Fe for the start of the New Mexico legislative session.
A husband and father, Ackerman was elected in 2014 as the top law enforcement officer in Lea County, which borders the Texas-New Mexico state line.
Ackerman previously served as chief deputy and had worked for the sheriff's office for about 15 years. He also had worked for other county agencies and as an instructor at the law enforcement academy.

Who are the partners? Dental health begins with good oral hygiene. This requires professional care and guidance provided by your dentist or dental hygienist, combined with proper care at home by you. That's the partnership. When you follow a recommended home care routine and have regular professional care, you will be able to maintain healthier teeth and gums.
Why you need a prophylaxis (professional cleaning). Professional cleaning removes plaque, calculus (tartar), and stain from the teeth. The cleaning may be done by your dentist or dental hygienist, a licensed professional who performs prophylaxis (professional cleaning) in the dental office and provides education in proper care of the teeth and gums.
What is plaque? Plaque is a soft, sticky, colorless film of bacteria constantly forming on your teeth. It combines with sugar and other carbohydrates to form acids, which attack tooth enamel and can cause cavities. Plaque can also cause inflammation of the gums (gingivitis), which can be identified by swollen, bleeding gums. If not treated early, gingivitis can lead to periodontitis, a more serious condition that causes gums to recede and bone to deteriorate. As a result, the supporting structures are weakened and teeth become loose.
It's easy to see why brushing and flossing to remove plaque is essential to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
What is calculus (tartar)? Minerals in saliva combine with plaque at the tooth surface and harden into a rough, unsightly deposit called calculus (tartar). Calculus, which is mostly mineral, provides a rough surface to which more plaque can attach, and makes thorough plaque removal more difficult. Your toothbrush and floss cant remove calculus once it has formed. Calculus can only be removed during a regular dental prophylaxis.
What a prophylaxis (professional cleaning) does that YOU can't do for yourself. A prophylaxis is a professional cleaning procedure that can be done only by a dentist or hygienist. The prophylaxis not only helps prevent gum disease, but also improves the appearance of your teeth by making them look clean and bright. A prophylaxis is usually performed in two steps. Instruments called scalers are used to remove calculus from teeth above and below the gumline Then, polishing with a special paste by means of a motorized instrument removes remaining plaque and surface stains caused by various foods, beverages, and tobacco. Polished tooth surfaces make it more difficult for plaque and debris to accumulate.

Q: Proxy setting for jmeter not working properly I am trying to set up proxy in firefox so that I can use recoding controller from Jmeter GUI. Below is my network settings in firefox:

I had the same issue with JMeter 3.2 , using Chrome.  I got it resolved by
invoking Chrome from command line with flag --ignore-certificate-errors
...This would get rid of the "Your connection is not private" error and i
was able to record normally after installing the certificate everywhere

Or record site with Blazemeter Chrome extension

A: This is not a JMeter problem, this is a technique of protection against MITM attacks called HTTP Strict Transport Security
You can try to bypass it by

*

*Remove entry for your app.example.net from the SiteSecurityServiceState.txt file in the Firefox Profile folder

*Add the next Integer value at about:config page:
test.currentTimeOffsetSeconds= 11491200

*Clear your browsing history or start with the new Firefox profile

Be aware that there is an alternative way of recording a JMeter test: JMeter Chrome Extension, you will not have to worry about proxies and certificates, just execute your scenario in the browser and once done you will be able to export it as a JMeter test script.


As backward infrastructure is the bottleneck that hinders the development of many African countries, infrastructure construction is one important aspect of China-Africa economic and trade cooperation. China attaches importance to giving support to African countries to improve their infrastructure, helping them build houses, roads, bridges, railways, airports, ports, telecommunications, power networks, water supply and drainage systems, and hospitals through means such as assistance, project contracting, investment cooperation, and expanding channels of financing, which have positive effects on the development of Africa. China encourages and supports its enterprises to participate in the infrastructure construction of African countries, asking them to finish the projects with guaranteed quality and on the basis of honoring contracts and upholding a fine reputation.
China has helped African countries build a large number of infrastructure projects over the years. In the 1970s China, despite its own economic hardship, provided assistance for the construction of the 1,860-km-long Tanzania-Zambia railway, which is historical evidence of China's selfless help to Africa. The Cairo International Conference Center, aided by China, covers a floor space of 58,000 sq mand hosts more than a hundred international meetings and exhibitions each year, promoting the development of local business and tourism. By the end of 2009, China had provided assistance for the construction of over 500 infrastructure projects in Africa. Other large projects include the Belet Uen-Burao Highway in Somalia, the Friendship Harbor in Mauritania, the Mashta al Anad-Ben Jarw Canal in Tunisia, and the National Stadium in Tanzania. The Convention Center of the African Union and a few other projects are under construction now.
In order to help African countries to improve their infrastructure, the Chinese government has offered many preferential loans, and supports its financial institutions to expand the amount of commercial loans to Africa. China has constantly intensified its efforts in financing for Africa since the establishment of the FOCAC. From 2007 to 2009,China provided US$5 billion of preferential loans and preferentialexport buyer's credit to Africa. It has also promised to provide US$10 billion of preferential loans to Africa from 2010 to 2012. These loans are to be used to finance some of the big projects under construction, such as an airport in Mauritius, housing in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea and the Bui Hydropower Station in Ghana.
Chinese engineering companies, in line with international norms, contract projects in Africa through competitive bidding, and help build many needed infrastructure projects with good quality and at low cost. Such projects as houses, roads, airports, refineries, telecommunication networks and hydropower stations are being expanded with improvedtechnology. The Chinese enterprises, from bidding on their own to jointbidding with international businesses, display their strength in Africa and improve their capacity in international management while accumulating experiences and cultivating skilled people. The China-aided large-scale projects which have already been completed include the Sheraton Hotel in Algeria, the telecommunications network in Ethiopia and the Merowe Dam in Sudan. Projects under construction include housing in Angola, a coastal railway in Libya and a light rail in Lagos, Nigeria.
Chinese enterprises undertake social responsibilities on their own initiative, and actively participate in programs benefiting local people,which have won them appreciation of the local governments and people. They have provided funds to build roads, bridges, hospitals and schools, and to sink wells. They have also donated materials to make a positive contribution to the development of local communities. For example, the programs for the public good organized by Chinese enterprises have benefited over two million people in Sudan, the friendship schools China aided in Nigeria promoted elementary education in 300 villages, and vocational training centers in Angola and Libya turn out large numbers of skilled workers.


Upon arriving there, we waited for the Iswara that i booked but was greeted with a Nissan Sentra. It was already late in the evening by the time we checked in. The apartment could easily occupy 6 people and it was spacious.
I was busy walking around meddling things and snapping photos till Lingster got fed up and demanded to leave the place and drive around. So that's what we did. We stayed near the Airport and the nearest place to dine would be Pantai Chenang, which is about 10-15 minutes drive from our place.
When we reached Langkawi, it was the last 3 days of the OFF PEAK season. There weren't much traffic on the road.
Lingster's ultimate hobby would be cam-whoring.
We drove along Pantai Chenang, scouting for a good place to eat. Lingster's theory was if there's a lot of people at a certain place then it's definitely good. Of course that's true but i am sure the service would be slow at the same time. I followed what she said and we found this chinese restaurant by the beach. Like she said, the place did have many patrons and like i said, the service was exceptionally slow but it didn't really matter cause we weren't rushing.
Lingster was forced to serve rice, hahaha. I am sure she would have taken the whole bowl and smacked my head if given the chance.
We ordered Teo Chew Fish, Cashewnut Chicken, Baby Kailan, fried egg with meat in it and Shark Fin soup.
Everyone who goes to Langkawi will definitely tell you that beer is cheaper than water. So why bother drinking water ? Both of us ordered beer but couldn't finish it >_<" We felt so full thanks to the food, i felt i over ordered the portions.
We played around with the cameras and taught Lingster how to use the panoramic function in k750 and my ixus.
its either u deliberately took those panoramic shots that way, or u dunno what the main usage of that function is.
btw how are you ?

Lawmakers: If industry doesn't solve surprise billing problem, 'we will,' and 'none of you will like it'
by Tina Reed |
Congressman Michael Burgess, R-Texas, acknowledged that different parts of the industry have financial reasons to disagree over fixes to the problem of surprise billing. But, he said, "If you don't help us solve the problem, we will solve the problem and none of you will like it." (Getty/tommaso79)
Several lawmakers issued warnings Wednesday to industry leaders—including payers and hospitals—to figure out how they can stop patients from being stung by unexpectedly high medical bills before Congress has to step in.
House Energy and Commerce Committee Ranking Member Rep. Michael Burgess, R-Texas, acknowledged different parts of the industry have good reasons to disagree. But, he said, "if you don't help us solve the problem, we will solve the problem and none of you will like it." His comments sent the tone of increasing frustration among lawmakers and consumer advocates in a morning and afternoon of testimony from medical experts about the potential impact of the No Surprises Act.
"We've all heard the stories. Patients who follow the rules. They pay their premiums. And then through no fault of their own, following some sort of emergency situation or surgery, receive a six-digit bill in the mail weeks later which they have no way of paying," said Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., who introduced the bipartisan legislation up for consideration before an Energy and Commerce subcommittee. "It is not fair. It should not happen and we're going to put a stop to it one way or the other."
RELATED: Experts on Capitol Hill: Solution to surprise billing should fall to hospitals, insurers—not patients
The measure would prohibit balance billing of patients and limit a patient's bill to their in-network cost sharing amount in emergency situations. It would also require providers give patients both verbal and written notice of any out-of-network providers who will be involved in their planned care, such as for elective surgery, and require providers to be paid by the patient's insurer at a median in-network rate for the service they provided in that geographic area in the event of a dispute.
Concerns raised largely centered around whether some form of arbitration would be a better solution—an idea the American Hospital Association favors—or if benchmarking rates is a better idea, which America's Health Insurance Plans backed.
Arbitration is used in New York, and a recent study found that consumer complaints about balance billing declined significantly in the state as a result. Providers in the state were more enthusiastic about the program than insurers, but case winners were evenly split between the two. Still, payers have warned that would create a costly bureaucratic system that would ultimately increase prices for consumers.
Lawmakers were also clearly frustrated as they sought specific answers, such as how to calculate average prices that hospitals, doctors and payers could all agree to. "Why is it we can't find an average when we start negotiating prices?" Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., asked. "If y'all don't want to solve it, we're going to. All we're saying is, do it. Solve it."
Patient advocate Sonji Wilkes told her story about getting smacked with a $50,000 bill after her newborn son was diagnosed with hemophilia and spent several days in the neonatal ICU. The hospital where she'd delivered him was in-network, but the subcontracting company that ran the NICU just down the hall was not, she said.
RELATED: Dueling surprise bill measures were introduced on Capitol Hill. Here's where they differ
During the hearing, Wilkes was asked to relate her thoughts as to what sort of congressional oversight was needed as experts parsed the problem. She responded with what sounded like exasperation.
"I've been sitting here thinking, 'I pay my insurance premiums. I do my part and I expect the bill to be paid. There's only so much I can do to control that'," Wilkes replied. "I don't really care how the reimbursement works and quite frankly I think the insurance industry is probably doing better on their bottom line than my bottom line. I want to go to the best provider possible and I want to get the best care possible. I don't really care how the payment works."

I'm sure I'm not the only one here but there are a few things about beauty that really get my goat - you know, those little things that make you irrationally angry? Yeah, those. Here are my top five things I'd like to tell beauty brands, in hopes they'll get their acts together and sort it out. I'd like to say this is a tongue-in-cheek post and isn't to be taken seriously... but if you happen to work for a beauty brand, I absolutely mean every word of this post!
1. When I use foundation, I don't like to break my hand in the process. I am so done with bashing foundation bottles on the back of my hand, trying to get product out. Please, for the love of all that's holy, provide me with a pump! It's not that difficult. If a £4 foundation can manage it, I'm pretty sure anyone can. On the subject of foundation, when I choose a shade, I expect it to stay that shade on my skin. Foundation that oxidises within an hour? Not cool.
2. Stop making massively exaggerated claims. No-one really thinks your lipstick is going to last 25 hours and, let's be honest, no-one really wants it to. We'd be quite happy for you to say, "This lipstick will last 4-5 hours so carry it with you for a touch-up." Can you imagine how a lipstick that lasted 25 hours would make your lips feel!?
3. Please stop making ridiculous claims about your product that make us think it might be the Holy Grail of primers/mascaras/whatever, and instead spend your time creating a product that actually lives up to these claims. This is how you will make your fortune! I might spend the tenner "just to see" if your primer really does keep my skin matte all day, but if it doesn't, that's that. Make something that does and I'll re-purchase it for life and recommend it to everyone!
4. Unless you have created a product that will literally Photoshop out all my flaws in real life, stop Photoshopping your ads! We're not stupid, we know the difference between a good base product and a metric f*ck-ton of expert editing; the former sells itself, the latter really doesn't give much indication of what your product is going to do for me so I'm not likely to buy it, now am I?
5. Please, let me shop in peace. There is nothing worse than quietly trying to browse the aisles of Boots, only to have to repeatedly tell various beauty counter staff that I don't want a makeover, am not interested in their free gift when I buy three products I'm never going to use, and don't want someone with eyebrows like that anywhere near my own brows! If I wish to buy something from you, I will do so. If I have a question, I will ask. There's really no need to tell me about your offers, I can read your notices, thank you. Pushy salespeople do nothing but put me off buying from your brand.
What would you like to tell beauty brands? Anything to add to my list, or have I got it covered?
Omg ALL these. Especially the last one, and it holds true for any kind of shopping. If I need help I ask, it's irritating when they hover when you're trying to browse in peace. P.s. I wish there was a Boots in my country though, love their bath & body stuff!
So true, especially the last one! I am so annoyed by people who keep watching what I do and what I'm looking at. Like, give me a break and I will definitely buy something from you, that's why I'm here for :)) That's one reason I love online shopping :) It's a shame though that for foundations or concealers, for example, I might pick the wrong shade if I order online. So I still usually rely on actual stores.
So true! I shared your post.
I'm also really bothered by the obvious photoshop on ads and the "this product is AMAZEBALLS and will stay on your skin for 24 hours!". No. It will not.
Can't they just be realistic? ._.
This was absolutely brilliant! So so accurate, I agree with every single pointer! Why would you even want your lipstick to last that long??
Very nicely put together the woes of makeup lovers. Great job!!
ha number 4 most definitely and as for flipping mascaras, stop using false eyelashes and making me think mine will look like those ones!
Ha ha.. good read! No.5 for me.. I hate pushy SAs who try to assist you when you didn't even ask for it.
Ooh so the last one! When you actually ask the pushy boots lady a q, stares blankly at you! I'll get the other girl to phone you... still waiting... since November! Your loss got it I debenhams! Rant! But yes someone should listen to you! Where are the market research people?

I wrote a piece for the Sunday Telegraph's Stella magazine about the realities of being a weekend wife. Not that I am one, but I am lucky to have cooperative friends who are living the weekend wife life. Especial thanks goes to Natalia and Greg Willmott who not only gave me the idea for the book, but also posed for some photos for the article in and around their idyllic Yorkshire house.
Despite the fact that I've written about imploding marriages, secrets and deceit in the book, those people I know who are forced into a similar set-up, seem to be making a success of it. Obviously life being quite content and well-organised doesn't make for a good story, hence my characters doing just the opposite.
I was struck when interviewing case studies and the Relate Counsellor Arabella how similar all the advice on making a go of it when you don't see each other during the week was for all of us: communicate, appreciate, always be open. I do know people for whom living like this hasn't worked, but in retrospect I wonder whether they were couples with far more fundamental flaws in their relationships.

   /* Initial memory allocation */
   str = (char *) malloc(8);
   strcpy(str, "example");
   printf("String = %s,  Address = %u\n", str, str);

   /* Reallocating memory */
   str = (char *) realloc(str, 14);
   strcat(str, ".com");
   printf("String = %s,  Address = %u\n", str, str);

   free(str);

   return(0);
}

However, when I replace these lines with a function:
int main() {
   ...
   /* Reallocating memory */
   newstr(str);
   ...
}

void newstr(char *str) {
   str = (char *) realloc(str, 14);
   strcat(str, ".com");
}

I am getting 19 errors on valgrind, complaining mostly about invalid reads. However, the program executes and outputs everything the same, without an error. Is there something going on when I pass str into the function that happens in memory that valgrind is notifying me of? What can I do to fix this? How can I learn more about this behavior and what the implications are?
This is the output of the program in either case:
String = example,  Address = 16445456
String = example.com,  Address = 16445456

A: As a general rule, parameters passed to C functions are passed by value. Unless you explicitly pass by reference, or instead pass a pointer to your object, Changes made in the called function will not persist when the function returns.
In your case, you may be passing a pointer, but you are trying to  then modify the pointer in the function instead of modifying what the pointer references.
Apart from the solution provided in the other answer where you return the new pointer, you have two options:
Pointer to Pointer
void newstr(char **str) {
   *str = (char *) realloc(*str, 25);
   strcat(*str, ".com");
}

Reference
void newstr(char *&str) {
   str = (char *) realloc(str, 25);
   strcat(str, ".com");
}

A: valgrind complain to the read correctly, you read from the invalid memory. You read from invalid value of str.
Correct code below.
int main() {
   ...
   /* Reallocating memory */
   str = newstr(str);
   ...
}

char * newstr(char *str) {
   str = (char *) realloc(str, 25);
   strcat(str, ".com");
   return str;
}

A: Passing by reference allows you to , among other things, change the referred-to value inside the function. You can do this with a pointer
But in
void newstr(char *str) {
   str = (char *) realloc(str, 25); <-- changed the pointer
   strcat(str, ".com");
}

the value altered inside the function IS the pointer. So you must pass the pointer by reference (or return the altered pointer as shown by BayK)
void newstr(char *& str) {
   str = (char *) realloc(str, 25);
   strcat(str, ".com");
}

Or you can embrace the power of this fully armed and operational C++ programming language and use a std::string.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
int main()
{
    std::string str = "example";

    std::cout << "String = " << str << ",  Address = "  << &str << "\n";
    str += ".com";
    std::cout << "String = " << str << ",  Address = "  << &str << "\n";
    return(0);
}

No Go Britain: disabled passengers 'stranded' and 'lost'
By Katie Razzall
In the first of a series of special reports on No Go Britain, Katie Razzall looks at a growing campaign by disabled passengers pushing for a better deal on public transport.
What's your worst experience on public transport? A long delay? A cancelled train?
You're unlikely to beat this. Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, a Paralympian who won 16 medals during her career, told Channel 4 News that only a few weeks ago she was left on a train at midnight and forced to "throw my chair off the train and then crawl off".
Her story isn't unique. We have spoken to individual disabled travellers and disabled charities about the experience they have of using Britain's public transport system. What they describe is shocking and has spurred us to begin a series we're calling No Go Britain. It's an investigation into the state of Britain's transport network.
Read more: How Paralympian Tanni had to crawl from train
We've been told of wheelchair users refused access to buses and left in the cold for hours; blind travellers stuck on trains because no member of staff arrived to meet them; one man with a learning difficulty went missing for three days because he got lost after ending up on the wrong train when his platform changed.
The law says that transport companies must make their networks accessible so that disabled people aren't "discriminated against or harassed in relation to the use of transport services". In other words, that they can take buses and trains like the rest of us. In practice, that often doesn't happen, for a wide variety of reasons, from the cost of upgrading networks to bad driver training.
Do you have a similar experience? We want you to upload videos of your journeys, both the difficult ones for disabled passengers - and the good ones! You can post them on facebook.com/nogobritain, add a video response at YouTube.com/nogobritain or tell us on Twitter using the hashtag #nogobritain
But some disabled people are fighting back. Channel 4 News has spoken to a group of bus passengers in the north east. The "Darlington 16" are taking their local bus company, Arriva, to court in the first case of its kind. They claim they are being discriminated against because ramps on the buses are often faulty, people in wheelchairs are often left waiting at bus stops and they say drivers aren't trained properly.
One of them, Antony Wilson, told us: "Arriva Buses are getting worse and worse… I go to college in Durham and I have to leave an hour and a half early to get there on time… I'm fuming because I want my independence, I want to be able to go out and find work but I can't find a job because I have to travel so I have to look for jobs close to home and they're just not there."
We filmed Antony Wilson as he headed home from Darlington. His journey was eventful. The first bus that arrived had a faulty ramp so he couldn't get on. The bus company told us the bus was "functional" apart from that.
With the Olympics and Paralympics almost upon us, Britain's ageing transport network will be laid bare.
Arriva told us it's well ahead of targets to bring in wheelchair accessible buses and has spent £23m. The company says: "We strive to ensure all our passengers have the best possible experience with our bus services and would encourage anyone whose experience falls below that to contact our customer service teams… While there are times where we cannot guarantee every single bus will be wheelchair accessible, we do not believe these examples are representative of the experience of the vast majority of wheelchair users or other people with reduced mobility."
With the Olympics and Paralympics almost upon us, Britain's ageing transport network will be laid bare. We've been promised the most accessible Games ever. But much of Britain is far from that.
On Tuesday, the campaign group A2BforAll will demand something is done. They want better training of transport staff when it comes to disability issues, a centralised register of complaints to ensure the problems of disabled travellers aren't ignored and a new regulator – funded by the rail industry – who can take those complaints into account when deciding about franchises.
For the moment, though, much of Britain's transport network remains a no go zone for all except the most hardened disabled travellers.
No Go Britain
Channel 4 News has launched an investigation into how easy it is for disabled people, and those with reduced mobility and visual impairment, to use the UK's public transport system. No Go Britain will ask disabled viewers and users for their experiences of public transport across the UK. The project will engage with public transport users, charities, transport companies and policymakers.
We will bring disabled travellers together with transport bosses, and show a series of reports that investigate the state of the network through the stories of its disabled users.
UK, No Go Britain special report


Here's a fascinating little tidbit.
It seems a Quebec mom was making lunch for her six-year-old son who attends kindergarten when the boy noticed his mother was using a Ziploc bag to wrap his sandwich. He screamed, "No Mommy! Not a Ziploc!"
It turns out the boy's teacher would "exclude him from a contest to win a stuffed teddy bear if he brought an environmentally unfriendly plastic baggie to school."
When the father questioned the boy's teacher, she responded, "You know, it's not very good for the environment. We have to take care of our planet and the bags do not decompose well."
I see. Look, the kid is six years old and he is now terrified of the implications of using a Ziploc bag. Psychological warfare, anyone?
I happen to be a huge fan of Ziploc bags. A box each of the gallon-sized and the quart-sized bags last me about a year because I wash and re-use and re-use and re-use them until they're in shreds. In fact, Ziploc bags are one of the few name brand things I buy (rather than the house brand equivalent) because the quality is high and I can get about a year's worth of use out of them.
Washed bags hanging upside down to dry.
Clearly this news incident goes beyond a mere plastic bag. This is an example of the psychological indoctrination children receive in public schools in the U.S. and Canada. "The key problem is we've got a teacher that is on a political crusade," said Michael Sanera (director of research and local government studies for the John Locke Foundation), "and thinks it's her responsibility to indoctrinate kids and not teach sound science."
I am not without some knowledge of science. My bachelor's degree was in zoology; my master's degree was in Environmental Education. And I am, once more, so thankful to be homeschooling my girls. Our kids are growing up with a balanced grasp of environmental issues, not the left-wing propaganda the Progressives love to force-feed innocent children in schools.
Look, if you choose never to use a Ziploc bag, more power to ya. But don't terrify little kids that we're all gonna die if they use a Ziploc, okay?
LOL @ your picture of your bags drying... Looks like my house. I was raised by two children of the Depression and learned well.
I was irritated when my brother quit his job as a beancounter to go into ministry (with a reduced salary) and he and his wife were visiting us, and he saw my bags drying and said to his wife, "Guess that'll be us in a few months, huh?" 'Scuse me?? What's wrong with being unwasteful? We were raised by the same parents, buddy.
BTW I recanned my crushed pineapple this morning as we talked about, also some hominy that also came in a #10 can, and so far so good. I plan to do more of this.
That teacher could have more impact by helping the kids come up with new ways to re-use and re-cycle!
Plastic bags, plastic sporks, toy guns, spitwad weapons, being male... it's all the lefty feminist teachers realm to indoctrinate, make illegal, and punish as they see fit.
Gee, why doesn't the rocket scientist concentrate on filling the children with a love of reading, writing, and arithmetic rather than make those babies terrified that they have the power to destroy what only our Creator can do. Thank You, thank You, thank You Father for the blessing of being allowed to homeschool my babies!
It really burns me when the schools start USING the children instead of just teaching them. What you wrap the child's sandwich in is not the child's decision nor control. Why should the child be penalized for it?
My child told me the school councilors came into class and asked kids who's parents drank, smoked, or used any drugs to raise their hands. They wrote down their names. I was appalled! They are making the children think it is right to "fink" on their family??? I blew a gasket.
The chairman of the school board (Whom I called that very day) told me it was to identify students that needed more input to keep them from growing up to be users too.
I told him his Gestapo profiling did not need to train my children to tattle on loved ones. He should teach my children to add and conjugate verbs, and stay out of my possible consumption habits. They agreed to quit this program when I called major media outlets.
My mom used to even wash pieces of plastic wrap. They went into the dishwater first, got scrubbed, rinsed really well and then stuck to the back splash behind the sink to dry. Wonder what kind of car that teacher drives? Probably something 'green'...and mostly made of plastic. That's partly how they improve gas mileage, you know. Metal weighs a whole lot more than plastic but plastic can be painted to look just like metal!
I turn the bags inside out (outside in). I will also reuse paper towels. If I 've cleaned a spill that isn't that messy, I will rinse them, hang them on the cabinet knobs, and WAHLA....good as almost new. Goodness gracious!
OK warped coincidence has raised it's head today. The google ad just to the right of anonymous' Kelly in NC is a link to a coupon for ZIPLOCK BAGS. God is an iron. BTW I use my ziplocks until they are in tatters too. They are a great idea but not cheap. Inside out and a sponge, dry it. good to go for tomorrow's lunch.
PS another thought since this blogosphere is run off of google why does google always get a red underline like it is misspelled?
ha ha...Looks just like my dish rack, a couple of bags hanging on tall utensils, then turned outside in to finish drying. I wash and reuse until they get holes in them. Speaking of ziplock bags, they slip and slide around in my freezer, (holding cookies or muffins for ex) so now I take an empty cereal box, slip the ziplock bag with the food inside, write the contents on the box, and stack the box flat on the freezer shelf...No more sliding bags.
those doggone teachers have been at the indoctrination game for at least the last 35 years. i know, cause i have had to blast a few of them myself while my son was being educated by the public system. sad thing is that some ofthe kids in school now will be teaching our grandchildren and that is a really scarey thought.
The really scary thing is that what this child is being taught is that you are thrown out of the competition if you don't conform to the leadership's ideas. This would marginalize the child and put him up to ridicule by fellow students. All at an age when this cannot be psychologically handled. It's a lot like what the government is currently trying to do to us radicals who don't follow the herd of sheep down the road to socialism. Those of us who believe that the Constitution and the Bible were given to us for a reason. Those of us who, although we were raised in government indoctrination centers, have chosen to follow our own paths. I am sooo glad I homeschool.
It was a sunny afternoon in North Carolina and we waited in line to pick our son up from the "better" school we had gotten him into through a lottery. Our son took his seat in the car on the verge of tears and we asked him what was wrong. He said the teacher wanted him to eat at McDonald's and he didn't want to.
Turns out the school was having a fundraiser and the class that brought the most people into the local McDonald's on that night won a prize. Since our family does not support fast food, this presented a serious conundrum for my son. We reassured him that we would smooth it over and were able to end the issue.
My nasty call to the principal informed me that the McDonald's Night was a function of the PTA, not the school (nevermind the huge banner in the entry of the school with a graph of the attendance of each class).
I wrote a letter to the PTA explaining my position, included a check written directly to the PTA for approximately what we might have spent at McDonald's, and asked that our attendance be counted toward our son's class.
The check was cashed, but we never received a response from the PTA.
Sometimes without apology or explanation.
Yea! I'm one of the plastic bag savers too. I dry mine on the wooden spoons sticking up out of my utensil crock, works great. One of my kids (who should know better) stated "seriously mom?" while holding up a ziplock to wash. I answered "yes, it's my effort to cut down on imported oil, I reuse, reuse, reuse the bags."
A few years ago, when my daughter was in first grade, her teacher did an experiment about melting ice. During a conference describing the experiment, he commented that we'd better be careful or else we would all have to wear bathing suits, because we'd be swimming when the polar ice caps melted. In front of my six year old daughter. We left that school soon after...for many reasons.
My first reaction to this was a desire to buy that poor kid a teddy bear. I guess I'm an enabler :D I was homeschooled 1st grade through HS and it is the only way to go in my mind.
I applaud the teacher--education regarding the care of our environment is a very important topic. We as a society need to be more enviromentally responsible. We need to decrease our use of non-renewable resources and reuse what we have, not always buy new. I think there is way too much drama stated here that the 6 year was having "psychological warfare" used on him. This matter can be discussed at home as it well should be. What one chooses to use in their own home is their business, but as adults we need to lead the way in providing a healthy earth for future generations. That six year old is going to grow up and we want him and all six year olds to have a healthy planet in which to live. By- the- way, one must be careful in reusing plastic bags due to certain bacterias. I myself reuse them, but am very careful what I reuse them for. Some bacteria cannot be removed by a simple rinsing even with soap and water. If everyone would decrease their use of something that does not decompose or is non-renewable we could make a significant difference. The choice is of course where you intend to make your difference.

El Partido por los Animales (en neerlandés Partij voor de Dieren) es un partido político neerlandés. Entre sus principales objetivos está luchar por los derechos de los animales y el bienestar de estos.

Se autodeclaran no ser un partido sólo centrado en un tema. Al principio el partido se consideraba a sí mismo como un partido testimonial, que no buscaba ganar poder político, sino defender sus creencias, aunque en 2010 consiguió 2 escaños en las generales y aspira a conseguir más para extender su lucha por los derechos de los animales. Las elecciones generales de 2017 le asignaron 5 escaños.

El partido recibió el apoyo electoral por las elecciones parlamentarías del 22 de noviembre de 2006 de numerosas celebridades neerlandesas, como los escritores Maarten 't Hart y Jan Wolkers. Desde el 30 de noviembre, Marianne Thieme y Esther Ouwehand son miembros de la Cámara de Representantes por dicho partido.

Fue el primer partido en conseguir asientos parlamentarios (dos escaños) con una agenda centrada principalmente en los derechos de los animales.

En enero de 2010 tenía 10,310 miembros, y para febrero de 2019, la cifra aumentó a 17,043.

Electorado
El electorado del PvdD consiste en su mayoría de mujeres (estimado en 70%) que viven en áreas urbanas. En 2017, el partido logró sus mejores resultados en Ámsterdam (6,02 %), Bergen (5,78 %), Haarlem (5,69 %) y Zutphen (5,62 %). El partido tiene el apoyo más bajo en las áreas rurales, especialmente aquellas con grandes industrias agrícolas, como en el cinturón bíblico.

El PvdD tiene la mayor proporción de votantes veganos/vegetarianos de cualquier partido político en los Países Bajos, con un 17,3 % o un 27,9 % respectivamente de votantes del PvdD que dijeron en 2 encuestas en 2021 que no comían carne. El partido con la segunda proporción más alta de votantes veganos/vegetarianos en ambas encuestas fue GroenLinks, cuya participación fue del 8,4 % o del 16,9 %.

Detroit Tigers outfield prospect Tyler Collins has hit .240 with 18 homers and 74 RBIs for Double-A Erie this season.
DETROIT -- Detroit Tigers touted outfield prospect Tyler Collins heads a group of seven Tigers minor leaguers who will participate in the Arizona Fall League for top prospects.
Seven Tigers minor league players were selected to represent the organization, which features many of the best prospects in the sport, the league announced Tuesday.
Collins, 23, highlights the group that also includes one of the organizations top infielders, Devon Travis, and right-handed reliever Corey Knebel, the Tigers' 2013 draft pick.
The others are left-handed starting pitcher Kyle Lobstein and right-handed reliever Will Clinard. Detroit will also send a pitcher and an infielder who weren't identified Tuesday.
All seven players will play with the Mesa Solar Sox, joining representatives from the Cubs, Dodgers, Nationals, Athletics and Angels.
The season will begin Oct. 8. and concludes Nov. 16.
Collins was the only player among the team's top 10 prospects named to the league. He entered the season as the Tigers' No. 7 prospect, but has struggled this year in Double-A Erie, hitting .240 after batting .290 with Single-A Lakeland last season.
His .750 OPS this season is well below his career average, but he's still managed to hit 18 homers with 27 doubles and 74 RBIs for the SeaWolves.
Knebel, 21, will join former Tigers farmhand Andy Oliver as just the second Tigers pitcher in five years to be added to the AFL roster the same year he was drafted.
Knebel, the Tigers' supplementary round draft pick (39th overall) this year, has allowed just two earned runs in 28 innings since being promoted to Class A West Michigan.
Like Knebel, Travis was granted a special exemption to be added to the roster. He has hit .343 with 11 home runs and 64 RBIs between West Michigan and Lakeland this year.
that allowed the club to retain Lobstein, who they selected in last December's Rule 5 Draft.
A candidate for a long relief role in Detroit's bullpen this spring, Lobstein allowed 12 runs -- 10 earned -- on 18 hits and six walks in 12 innings pitched in spring training.


BEIJING, April 15 (Xinhua) — Chinese Premier Li Keqiang Monday met with Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono and some other cabinet ministers who were here to attend the fifth high-level economic dialogue between China and Japan.
He said since China and Japan are two of the world's major economies, strengthening cooperation is not only in the interests of the two countries but also conducive to peace, stability and prosperity in the region and world.
As both sides support free trade and abide by the rules of the World Trade Organization, they should work together to create a fair, equitable and non-discriminatory business environment for each other's companies, said Li.
