This week I indulged in pasta. I stayed a few days with my grandmother and we always have a good time. It started with a little wine on Saturday, then progressed to a little homemade mashed potatoes and chicken noodle soup on Sunday, followed up by a very delicious dinner made by Casa –a local favorite.
Last night before weigh-in, I tried another wonderful Italian dish from Oley's Pizza. It was a Chicago style deep dish pizza. It was not as good as Giordano's, but it was the better option here in town.
In my mind…I just kept thinking as if on repeat…discipline yourself, my child.
1. Eating out can be lethal if you don't exercise portion control and proper logic. Hold the extra sauce. Hold the extra cheese. With each and every one of those meals aforementioned, I was utilizing portion control with every single sitting.
2. Exercising makes a huge difference. I can tell when I need to just go on a walk or when I need to burn off some added energy. This week I made a valid effort to walk, even though my decent workouts cease to exist.
3. Cleaning, lifting objects, and walking away from the desk are wonderful ways to keep your strength muscle wise. It wasn't ideal workouts, but it was better than plopping at my desk sedimentary all day long.
5. Blessings come in all forms, keep your eyes open and the opportunities will present themselves. I stepped out of the salon and despite my situation still was presented with a class and a day long event. Perfect timing. I went on an impromptu walk with my sister. It was lovely. I spent some much-needed quiet time with my grandmother. Our talks were precious.
Check out my surprising results for week 8! This week fed my body and soul. I am so grateful as this week I found peace among this challenge which has not been easy.
Week 8: height 4'8″; weight 100.0 lbs.
Hi! I am Megan and I am so excited to be a new contributor to the Anchor Drop Blog! So I want to start by giving you a little background on myself. I am stay at home mom and Navy wife in sunny San Diego. Steven and I have been married 6 years and have 3 kids. Mady is 4, Brynn is 3 and Hank is 10 months. I am from Indiana and Steven is from South Carolina, so we live far from our family, but have been extremely fortunate to make amazing friends both through the Navy and through church.
Okay so those are some basics. But I want to tell you about a new challenge I am taking on….Half Marathon training. So I feel I owe you a little back story on this. About 2.5 years ago I decided it was finally time to take control of my life and shed some weight. I had been overweight and obese for most of my life and at the time weighed 280lbs. Over the course of 13 months I was able to lose 115lbs. I went with a very basic and effective route to weight loss. Eat fewer calories, but better for you food and workout. Thankfully I was able to keep this up when I got pregnant with our third child. I worked out almost right to the end and while I gained 35lbs, I was able to shed most of it quickly after having Hank. Unfortunately I admit to having fallen back into some bad habits I had before losing weight. Too many sweets and not enough fruits and veggies. So I put about 10lbs back on. I realized I needed motivation, I needed a goal.
I began jogging on and off before I got pregnant and have done some jogging since then as well. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I am not fast. I get tired very quickly. It seems to just keep going and going. But it is so wonderful to get out. And I feel extremely accomplished after a run. So a friend of mine posted about the Tinkerbell Half Marathon at Disneyland in May 2015. I couldn't resist looking into it. I kept feeling pulled toward it, despite the fact it is 13.1 miles. So I decided I would ask my dad and if he was up for it, I would be too. And he said yes!! So here I am searching training plans and trying to figure out how I am going to run for so long!!
I met my friend Megan in high school, but it wasn't until freshman year at IU when I moved in across the hall from her and Emily that they then became 2 of my best friends. I was the annoying across the hall neighbor who woke up far too early in the morning without an alarm. Years later they told me they would lock the door and pretend to still be sleeping so I couldn't bother them.
I remember the day many years ago when Megan called me and said "Erica I need to get healthier." It was this day I noticed a change in her attitude about her health, and this day I believe is the beginning of an incredible journey in her life that brought her to this point. At this point she was a new navy wife which brings on all sorts of stress and trials. She was also at her heaviest non pregnant weight. Shortly after this phone call she found out she was pregnant. While she couldn't start to make extreme changes at this point, her view on health started to change here.
Shortly after Meg found out she was pregnant, her incredible husband Steven left for deployment. The strength and courage Megan has amazes me. They had their sweet little girl Mady.
After Mady was born Meg started again to focus on losing weight and being healthier… then came pregnancy number 2 and sweet Brynn!
As you can see, Megan's weight loss story was exactly a straight and narrow path but had many detours… 2 pregnancies, deployments, and 2 children at one point under the age of 2. You could understand why after the 2nd pregnancy Megan could have easily given up, but she didn't.
Don't get me wrong though, every morning when my alarm goes off at 5:10am I think of excuses. I am tired. I am sore from yesterday. I just need a little extra sleep. And some days I give into those excuses. Those are usually the days I struggle with having energy. I tend to be shorter with the girls, and I eat crappy.
My best piece of advice would be to get out of your own way and just do it. You can keep making excuses for as long as you want as to why you can't do this, why you can't make the changes needed, but in the end you just need to take the first step. Just start doing 1 thing different toward making yourself healthier and you will see changes. And figure out what works for you. Just because everyone you know is doing one thing and it works from them, does not mean it will work for you. Each person is different, so each diet and exercise regimen has to be different.
As this incredible family faces another deployment, lets join together in encouraging them in their strength and courage all around. I am so blessed to have this family in my life and am daily encouraged by them! Thank you Whitsitt family for letting me be a part of your journey!


Scottish Premier League clubs have voted to deny Falkirk FC promotion and ensure Motherwell FC survive relegation.
Scottish Premier League (SPL) clubs have voted to deny Falkirk FC promotion and ensure Motherwell FC remain a top-flight team next season.
Representatives from all 12 SPL clubs met at Hampden Park, Glasgow to discuss First Division champions Falkirk's plan to groundshare while a new stadium was constructed which fulfilled the league criteria of 10,000 seats.
However, Falkirk's bid to move in with Airdrie United FC at their New Broomfield ground did not gain the 7-5 majority vote required. Doubts about whether Falkirk would have priority rights at New Broomfield, as well as the threat of legal action from other clubs who had spent millions of pounds ensuring their grounds satisfied the 10,000-seater requirement introduced in 1997, swayed the vote against the promotion hopefuls.
Falkirk directors led by chairman Campbell Christie were bitterly disappointed at the vote and are considering grounds for appeal. Christie, whose club have been outside the highest division for seven seasons, said: "We will take stock of the situation and we will consider our next steps in consultation with our lawyers."
The SPL's bottom club Motherwell have benefited from the ruling as relegation will be suspended for this year. Despite being stranded at the foot of the table, spending a year in administration and facing a large compensation bill for illegally sacking 19 players, they have survived by default.
League chairman Lex Gold said it was unlikely the clubs would overturn their decision. "It is open to Falkirk to appeal but it is doubtful they would be able to appeal through the Scottish Football Association," he said. "I appreciate that Falkirk will be very disappointed. They have a very good board who are a credit to the club. But the judgment of the clubs was made on the basis of the information available."
Meanwhile, the ten non-Old Firm clubs have withdrawn their threat to resign from the SPL over a dispute with Celtic FC and Rangers FC, after an agreement was struck to alter the voting procedure in the league. "I congratulate my colleagues on achieving this balanced and sensible outcome," said Gold.


IR control problems are becoming more common as it is often desirable to hide AV equipment away in cabinets or other rooms, often a distance from the TV or projector.
The IRBKIT system makes it easy to relay those important IR signals back to where they are needed.
This kit includes the IR distribution amplifier and a panel mount IR receiver. This is ideal if you want to mount the IR receiver flush in the front panel of a cabinet (or any flat surface provided you can drill a 16mm diameter hole in it!) and have only the front 30mm diameter disc of the receiver showing. The receiver is secured in place with a nut on the rear of the unit and makes for a very neat and tidy mounting solution.
The IR receiver cable is about 1.2 metres long and so fine for most local installations. This cable can be easily extended if needed with our range of extension cables.


Only 15 days after arrest to request a Cresson, TX ALR Hearing.
Cresson, TX DWI Attorney offers Free ALR Hearing Form to Seek an to Prevent an Automatic DWI License Suspension.
If less than 15 days have passed since your arrest in Cresson, TX, you are entitled to demand an ALR hearing. For the reasons made clear below, it is critical that you seek a hearing.
An Administrative License Revocation or ALR is an administrative procedure by which a person who is apprehended for driving while intoxicated or another intoxication-related offense seeks to prevent his or her chauffeur's license from being suspended. A suspension can take place from either a refusal to submit to a blood or breath test or by offering a specimen that results in a 0.08 or greater blood alcohol concentration.
An ALR hearing is a hearing that is occurs with an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) who pays attention to the proof in the event. DPS has the burden of proof in an ALR hearing. The motorist can challenge DPS's case by providing any legal concerns that might exist. Unlike the criminal case, which should be shown beyond a sensible doubt, the burden of proof in an ALR hearing is onlysufficient of evidence.
You have to know that your license has not actually been suspended at the time of arrest. Since the cops took your license, it appears that it has been suspended, but it is not. However, to avoid suspension, you should ask for an Administrative License Revocation (ALR) hearing within 15 days of when you were served with a Notification of Suspension (usually the date of arrest). If you timely seeked a hearing to contest your license suspension, you will be able to continue driving until the hearing [or longer. If you lose at the hearing, you can not operate after the hearing. If your license is suspended at the hearing, you may have the ability to secure restricted license, called an occupational license to operate lawfully.
Delay Suspension Your license suspension does not go into impact till the ALR hearing choice ruling protests you. Therefore, instead of having 40 days to drive on the momentary license, you may have numerous months where you are operating without restriction. If the judge rules in your favor, no administrative suspension will occur. There is the possibility of a conviction suspension.
Arrange Temporary License Many experienced attorneys will have a petition for occupational license prepared so that you can obtain an Occupational License as soon as possible if the ALR choice is rendered against you. To prevent suffering an extended period of suspension after a hearing, it is well to prepare the ODL, so it can be submitted quickly after the hearing.
Cross Exam Arresting Officer Many hearings are held solely on the cops report, because you win if the cops did not sufficiently record the proof required for DPS to win. If the officer attends the hearing, they can cure the shortage with their testimony, rejecting defense the win that was possible only with the insufficient cops report.
Your legal representative may subpoena the apprehending officer to show up at the hearing. This is provided for various factors. If the cops report is appropriate for DPS to win, then it might be rewarding to subpoena the officer, hoping their absence will permit a defense win. Likewise, if a trial of the DWI case is being considered, the ALR hearing enables the officer to be analyzed under oath, wishing to discover details that will be useful in trial. Your legal representative will be able to cross-examine the officer shows up that the ALR hearings. This supplies us with a discovery chance to question the officer who detained you. There are a variety of benefits to doing this. Chief amongst them is the fact that we are able to cross-examine officers without the presence of a criminal district attorney to reroute them or prepare them.
RISK: Police Get to Supplement their report. Some attorneys consider this smart, even if it leads to loss of an otherwise winnable ALR hearing. My choice is to take a win if I can get it and just subpoena the officer if the situation is desperate or the officer's testament is crucial to trial preparation. The additional expense and trouble isn't worth it otherwise.
The law enforcement officer will take the person's chauffeur license and release a short-lived driving license.
The notice of suspension functions as your "temporary driving permit." It is marked "DIC-25" and written in the upper right-hand corner. The bottom of your notice describes how to ask for an ALR hearing. It is valid chauffeur's license until either 40 days after arrest or, if a prompt demand is produced an ALR hearing, the hearing takes place and a suspension takes place. If the ALR judge rejects the DPS ask for suspension, your license continues to stand.
If a hearing is not asked for, the suspension enters into impact on the 40th day after the notification was served. (This is normally 40 days after the arrest.).
You or your attorney might demand an ALR hearing by calling 800-394-9913 or 512-424-2600 on weekdays during typical company hours. You may likewise send your demand by means of fax at 512-424-2650. The easiest way to demand a hearing is to take advantage of our FREE ALR DEMAND. To do so, complete our FREE assessment kind to supply us with the information we need to make the ask for you.
In addition to adequately likely} than an offense has been occurring. An example of likely cause would be anty traffic offense or failed field sobriety test( s) or confessing to drinking alcohol. The legal requirements to meet this test are very low, so DPS generally wins this issue.
Lastly, DPS must show that the motorist either breathed or blood test and had a blood alcohol concentration of over.08 or the driver refused to breathe or blood test.
Understand thatadequate of the evidence is an extremely low requirement so DPS often wins these hearings. In fact, in north Texas, DPS wins these hearings over 95% of the time. After the hearing, the ALJ will provide a final, appealable decision and order. If the judge finds that DPS has actually proven its case, the judge will license the suspension of the person's chauffeur's license.
It is a waste of time for untrained persons to attempt ALR hearings, because they are VERY technical. On the other hand, experienced DWI lawyers help the judge find that DPS has not shown its case, the individual's chauffeur's license will not be suspended.
Your license might be suspended if you refuse to provide a specimen of your breath or blood for a duration of 180 days, even if you are entirely innocent of driving while intoxicated.
( b) The period of suspension or rejection is 2 years if the individual's driving record shows one or more alcohol-related or drug-related enforcement contacts, as specified by Section 524.001( 3), throughout the Ten Years preceding the date of the person's arrest.
When your lawyer demands the ALR hearing, it can take four weeks to 120 days for DPS to set up a hearing date. Your lawyer will be alerted of this date, which is generally a couple of weeks to months from the date of the notice.
Due to the fact that of the complexities associated with administrative license cancellations and license suspensions, it is always much better to work with an attorney to deal with these problems for you. Your attorney will demand the hearing, subpoena detaining officer(s), prepare your defense, and argue your case for you.
After the suspension duration is over, you may contact your local DPS workplace to have your license restored. You will be responsible for paying a reinstatement charge, which is at least $125. Your attorney will be able to confirm your eligibility for reinstatement before you enter by logging into the DPS website.
Yes. You will be forced to pay a cost to appeal the underlying decision, but you may appeal the ALR decision. This likewise grants you more time to operate on your license without the suspension entering into impact. Sadly, the law is extremely beneficial to the administrative judge, so few appeals are successful.

Ron Nagorcka "Lovregana – Music From A Tasmanian Forest / Soundscapes From Wilderness"
Italy's invisibilia editions continues their stellar run with this dual reissue from Australia's Ron Nagorcka. With recent interest in ambient music that combines nature field recordings and gentle music ("birdbient" as Jake Muir coined – at least I think it was Jake), these 30+-year-old recordings from Nagorcka are decades ahead of the current. With the album titles, it's easy to get a grasp of this work before hearing it, but Nagorcka's musical elements and the unique environment where the field recordings come from set this apart from so many others.
I keep returning to the enchantments of "Lemarrcootya (Grey Shrike-thrush)" from Lovregana. Nagorcka's ability to blur the line between the Grey Shrike-thrush's wild song and his languid, swirling synthesis is fantastic. As these twisted circus melodies loop and repeat, it's almost as if they begin to fall apart. This duet with these birds feels oddly sad, an endless call and response where no one gets an answer. Nagorcka's sense of how to combine these incredible recordings with thematic instrumentation and composition is impeccable. His accompaniment is often minimal but adds so much to the pieces.
Among Ron Nagorcka's many talents, he is an accomplished didjeridu player and composer. While his music education focused on pipe organ and harpsichord, during his time studying at Melbourne University and later the University of California San Diego, he found great influence and inspiration from Australian indigenous culture, which led to these didjeridu pursuits. Soundscapes From Wilderness showcases some of these ideas, with Nagorcka less aurally present, but his spirit guiding throughout.
The incredible 15-minute expanse of "Rainforest In N. Tasmania (With Didjeridu)" is surprisingly meditative and enthralling. For nearly half the piece, the sounds of the rainforest overwhelm. Teeming with life and energy, the recording is a non-stop sonic adventure. When Nagorcka's hypnotic didjeridu drones fade-in, the effect is utterly mesmerizing. His playing fits in seamlessly, adding new textural layers that further highlight these incredible natural sounds. It's beautiful.
It's taken far too long for me to learn about the incredible work of Ron Nagorcka and hopefully releases like these will introduce his work to a new audience. His studies in sound have been going on for decades and he continues until this day. This dual release from invisibilia editions is the perfect introduction to this entrancing world of sound.

'Supernatural' Third man out
Supernatural Episode 6.3
Written By: Ben Edlund
Directed By: Bob Singer
Original Airdate: 8 October 2010
In This Episode...
Sam and Dean investigate the biblical deaths of three cops. The first turned to a puddle of blood. The second was covered with huge, hideous boils - inside and out. The third had his brain eaten away by locusts. The boys call Cas, and he explains that these deaths could only be as a result of Moses's staff. Several of heaven's weapons were stolen, and in the wrong hands - Raphael's soldiers - they could bring about the apocalypse the Winchesters fought so hard to avoid.
Turns out the three cops shot a young man, then planted a gun on him to make it a just killing. The guy's little brother prayed and prayed for the cops to suffer consequences. His prayers were answered by Balthazar, who sold the kid a small piece of Moses's staff to use to get his own vengeance. Balthazar is one of Raphael's soldiers. They want to rule heaven because they are "traditionalists" and want to get the apocalypse back on track. Whoever has the weapons wins the war.
Cas, Dean and Sam find Balthazar, who calls for Raphael and a few of his cronies. A very brief battle ensues (see below). The lackeys are killed off almost instantly. Balthazar turns Raphael to salt with the help of a magic crystal. Dean traps Balthazar in a ring of holy fire, but once Balthazar gives the kid his soul back, Cas sets him free.

"Yellow Brick Road" Promo Look
"One Morning in New England, 1940, the entire population of Friar New Hampshire – 572 people – walked together up a winding mountain trail and into the wilderness. They left behind their clothes, their money, all of their essentials. Even their dogs were abandoned, tied to posts and left to starve. No One knows why. A search party dispatched by the U.S. Army eventually discovered the remains of nearly 300 of Friar's evacuees. Many had frozen to death.
Others were cruelly and mysteriously slaughtered. The bodies of the remaining citizens are still unaccounted for. Over the years, a quiet cover-up operation managed to weave the story of Friar into the stuff of legends and backwoods fairy tales. The town has slowly repopulated, but the vast wilderness is mostly untracked, with the northern-most stretches off limits to local hunters and loggers.
In 2008, the coordinates for the "YELLOWBRICKROAD" trail head were declassified. The first official expedition into a dark and twisted wilderness will attempt to solve the mystery of the lost citizens of Friar…and reach the end of the trail."
UK's 'Dead Set' Comes to America
The United Kingdom's mini zombie series Dead Set finally finds a home in the States thanks to the folks over at IFC.
Dead Set Trailer E4
Uploaded by gotti57. - Watch feature films and entire TV shows.
Synopsis: "Britain has been hit by an epic problem. The dead are returning to life and attacking the living. The people they kill get up and kill. And it's spreading like wildfire. Within two days, 80 percent of the population is dead. No one knows how this problem started or how widespread it has become, because there are no news channels anymore.
The entire social structure has collapsed in the space of 48 hours. Tiny groups of survivors are holed up across the country, unaware of each other, besieged inside abandoned houses, abandoned hospitals - abandoned anything. Surrounded by growing hordes of the living dead - mindless eating machines powered by raw instinct - they fight to survive, around the clock.
Few people remain who aren't worried about this living nightmare: the remaining contestants in the reality TV game show, "Big Brother." Cocooned in the safety of the Big Brother house, they're blissfully unaware of the horrific events unfolding in the outside world... until eviction night when the walking dead descend on the studio.
In a cruel reflection of the game show they were cast in, one by one they fall victim - devoured by the hungry, unthinking masses outside. Staying alive requires teamwork - a tricky job when you're a group specifically selected by TV producers to not get along and drive each other crazy."
DEAD SET will air on IFC Monday October 25th through till Friday 29th at 12pm ET. Then, on Halloween night, the channel will host a marathon of all 5 episodes back to back beginning at 7:30pm ET.

'Godzilla' Comics On The Way
From the Press Release
The biggest star in motion pictures prepares to wreak havoc once again! IDW Publishing is thrilled to announce a partnership with Toho Co., Ltd., to create all-new GODZILLA comics. Starting in 2011, Godzilla will smash his way back onto the scene with a cast of characters from his films never before seen in comics.
"This new series will be monsters and mayhem, but most importantly, it's going to be a lot of fun," said Yukio Kotaki of Toho. "Godzilla has been gone from comics for too long, and we feel that IDW is the perfect company to welcome him back in 2011."
In addition to the King of the Monsters himself, the new comics from IDW Publishing and Toho Co., Ltd., will feature many of Godzilla's friends and foes, including MOTHRA™, KING GHIDORAH™, RODAN™ and more that have never before been featured in an American comic book series alongside Godzilla. With an impressive cast of monsters both old and new, IDW's series will treat fans to both familiar themes and original takes on the pop culture legends that have stomped, smashed, and fought their way across movie screens for over five decades.
"Not only is Godzilla known worldwide, he's loved worldwide, too. Having a film career with more than 25 movies and going on a 56-year span pretty much solidifies you as a legend, and IDW is really looking forward to contributing to that legacy," said Chris Ryall, Chief Creative Officer and Editor-in Chief for IDW Publishing. "We wanted Godzilla to return to comics, but this time we wanted him to have some company. I think fans will be pleased with the monster guest appearances, which will really offer something for every fan of these films. There are the classic characters, but there are also a few surprises, too."
Debuting in February 2011, fans can expect to see a number of unique storylines from some of the industry's top creators.

NASS: The Albatross Nigeria must get rid of
[SENATE WANTS N182.5 BILLION FOR CONSTITUENCY PROJECTS]
• Each senator to go home with N1.7 billion from 2017 fiscal plan
• Move to get 2.5% of budget may cause executive, legislature rift
Through a fresh legislation, the Senate is planning to secure a more permanent source of funding for the controversial constituency projects that have always pitted the National Assembly against the Presidency.
Specifically, the lawmakers have started a move to create a Constituency Development Fund to be domiciled in the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, and financed through deductions from annual national revenues.
The Guardian learnt that already, a bill for the new legislation, tagged "Constituency Development Fund Bill 2016", has been introduced to the Upper Chamber through its sponsor and Senate Leader, Mohammed Ali Ndume.
If the bill is passed into law, the Federal Government may forfeit 2.5 per cent of its annual budget as well as other monetary accruals to the fund. If this legislation becomes functional by next year, the 2.5 per cent of the N7.3 trillion budget for 2017 which is N182.5 billion will go for constituency projects.
And if this amount is meant only for the 109 members who make up the upper legislative chamber, each senator, without a perking order, will be taking home N1.7 billion for constituency projects. This amount is enough to build and equip a cottage hospital. And it is about 50 per cent of the N4 billion yearly budget of a teaching hospital. If the menace of corruption is ruled out, the bill may promote faster execution of capital projects to which the constituency funds are tied, because lawmakers whose constituencies benefit would directly monitor the projects to ensure that they progress.
But the move by the legislators may cause further rift between them and the executive arm of government which has the constitutional responsibilities of placing projects in budgets and executing them. The role of the National Assembly in this regard is to pass annual budgets.
It was learnt that the leadership of the National Assembly packaged the bill as a better and more acceptable arrangement to replace the earlier legislative plan to force the Federal Government to lose at least 20 per cent of its national budgets to the constituency projects.
Justifying the need to insert the constituency projects in the annual budgets, during a debate on a similar proposed law sponsored by Stella Oduah, the Senate President, Bukola Saraki said: "I don't think there is anything that ensures equity in the country like the constituency projects. Our responsibility is to provide the projects to our constituencies, full stop."
Barely a week before it received the N7.3 trillion 2017 budget proposal from President Muhammadu Buhari on December 14, 2016, the Senate endorsed for further legislative work, a bill to reserve 20 per cent of annual budgets for National Assembly Constituency Projects.
Sponsored by Odua (PDP, Anambra North), the bill after, passing the second reading, was referred to the Senate committees on appropriation and finance, and is expected to be passed into law early in 2017.
The key provision in the bill which many described as "self-serving and over-ambitious", is one which states that at least 20 per cent of annual budgets must be dedicated to constituency projects.
The groundswell of opposition to the bill from across the country made some senators to suggest alternative means of sourcing funds for the projects.
The Guardian learnt that the Ndume's bill which is being processed as the alternative legislation is to be given accelerated treatment upon the resumption of the Senate from its three-week Christmas and New Year holidays.
The Ndume's bill proposes the establishment of the Constituency Development Fund which shall be national, consisting of not less than 2.5 percent of all the Federal Government's ordinary budget in every financial year.
The fund to be managed by the Department of Rural Development in the Ministry of Agriculture will also include the revenue " accruing to or received by the department from any other source; or any money disbursed by the Federal Government to the department for even development and provision of rural infrastructure in the manner provided by this Act."
According to the bill, "l.5 % and 1 % of the total revenue accruing to the Department under this Act shall be allocated for developmental projects at all federal constituencies and senatorial districts in the federation respectively."
The bill empowers the department to perform other key functions particularly with regard to the Constituency Development Fund which include ensuring timely and efficient management of the fund; receiving and discussing list of proposed projects from the constituencies; ensuring the execution of approved projects to completion; and ensuring the compilation of proper records, returns and reports for the constituencies.
Other functions which the department is expected to perform are receiving and addressing complaints and disputes or where necessary refer such complaints to the appropriate government body or the National Assembly for investigation and resolution; considering project proposals submitted from various constituencies in accordance with the Act, approve for funding those projects that are consistent with the Act and disburse funds for the execution of the said projects;"
Section six of the new legislation specifically mandates the president to allocate funds for the (CDF).

If you're renting, housing is likely your biggest monthly expense. The average rent for one-bedroom apartments across the country is around $950 a month, and in the country's biggest cities it can be significantly higher than that.
But what if you could bargain with your landlord to get a better deal? Turns out you may well be able to, according to personal finance expert Ramit Sethi.
"The single biggest expense for most people is their rent and yet they never take the time to realize you can negotiate this," Sethi tells CNBC Make It.
And now may be the best time to have that conversation. The national rent index fell slightly month-over-month for the second month in a row, ApartmentList found in its March report.
Sethi, the best-selling author of "I Will Teach You to be Rich," says that, when there's a glut of apartments, you have more opportunity as a renter to bargain. And "if you can negotiate, you can often save hundreds of dollars a month which adds up to thousands of dollars a year," Sethi says.
Here's how to approach this type of conversation in five easy steps.
This Valentine's Day, consumers shouldn't panic that the original conversation hearts candy isn't on shelves. Other candy brands are stepping up to fill the void.
Sweethearts conversation hearts are unavailable for the first since since 1866 as the brand's new owner, Spangler Candy, acquired it too late to produce the candy in time for the holiday. Spangler, best known for its Dum Dum lollipops, said in January that conversation hearts will return next year.
Americans are expected to spend $1.8 billion on candy this Valentine's Day, according to the National Retail Federation. Some of that money will no doubt be spent on other versions of conversation hearts, in addition to chocolates.
Brach's released three new lines of flavors for its conversation hearts this year. Brach's, which has sold conversation hearts since the 1960s, said in a statement that it has been the market leader in conversation hearts for years. Candystore.com reported that Sweethearts' version was the popular candy for the holiday last year.
"Brach's size, texture, colors, sayings, flavors and quality provide the perfect sweet solution for those conversation heart lovers who are lamenting over reports that this Valentine's favorite is not available this year," Hans Becher, general manager of Brach's and seasonal confections at parent company Ferrara Candy, said in a statement.
Spangler did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
For something a little more sour and less chalky, both Nestle's SweeTarts and Mondelez's Sour Patch Kids have their own take on conversation hearts. Besides the difference in flavor, the candies' sayings aren't as visible as those on Brach's or Sweethearts' versions.
New England Confectionery Co., also known as Necco, went out of business in July and sold Sweethearts and its other candy brands at auction. Round Hill Investments, which brought Hostess brands back from the brink, acquired Necco's brands but sold Sweethearts and the Necco wafer brand several months later.
But fans of Sweethearts might be glad that the candy isn't available this year. Bloomberg reported in October that exterminator visits to the factory had grown sporadic — and rat sightings became much more common.
Sean Parker, founding president of Facebook, worries more about Amazon violating your privacy than Facebook.
"If you're having a conversation in front of an Alexa-enabled device, Amazon is not guaranteeing you any privacy," Parker said in a discussion on stage with CNBC's Hadley Gamble at the Milken Institute MENA Summit.
A spokesperson for Amazon was not immediately available to comment when contacted by CNBC.
Amazon came under fire last year when an Echo device reportedly secretly recorded a family's conversation and sent it to a random person. Amazon blamed the incident on Alexa misinterpreting a set of commands.
Speaking to CNBC last month, Amazon's VP of Voice Pete Thompson said that his company was taking security and data privacy extremely seriously.
"Even when we put Alexa into our partner products that's something that we mandate of how they can do, how they can use this stuff. Obviously it is early days on how voice works and some of the biggest challenges is when you speak to it hands free, and you are talking to it from a distance. We try very hard to tune it, to make sure we've only heard 'Alexa' and then that's when it wakes up .. we have to keep improving that," he said.
Is Facebook unwittingly connecting the world to too much misinformation, political manipulation, or worse? He's an early investor in Facebook and an early adviser to Mark Zuckerberg. McNamee says Facebook is bad for America. Also joining the conversation is Antonio García Martínez, former Facebook employee, and author of "Chaos Monkeys: Obscene Fortune and Random Failure in Silicon Valley." He does not think Facebook is bad for America.
Facebook is worth almost a half trillion dollars. It has more than 2 billion users who log in at least once a month. It has a famous CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, hailed in Silicon Valley as a Bill Gates for the Internet age – the suburban Harvard kid who dropped out of college to start a company and change the world.
Facebook also has problems. Its once non-controversial mission of connecting the world has taken a dark turn. Connecting the world to what, exactly? After the Cambridge Analytica scandal, and controversies over how Facebook gave partners access to user data, there's a question hanging out there.
Is Facebook unwittingly connecting the world to too much misinformation, political manipulation, or worse? Or does the good that happens on Facebook outweigh the bad?
Joining Jon Fortt this week to discuss is Roger McNamee. He's an early investor in Facebook and an early adviser to Mark Zuckerberg. He is also the author of a new book: "Zucked: Waking Up to the Facebook Catastrophe." McNamee says Facebook is bad for America.

If you own an Amazon Echo — or if you're planning to buy one as a holiday gift — you should know a bit about what sorts of private information it stores about you, and how to delete that info.
After all, the topic of Alexa and whether it's always listening may come up during the holiday. A judge recently ordered Amazon to hand over Alexa voice recordings in a murder case, for example, which may lead some people to believe the Echo can always hear what you're saying.
You could be forgiven for thinking otherwise, given some of the bizarre stories out there. For instance, earlier this year, an Alexa-enabled device recorded a conversation between a husband and wife, then sent it to one of the husband's phone contacts. But Amazon says that's because the device accidentally misheard part of the conversation as its wake word, "Alexa," then misinterpreted other sounds as a series of commands.
Even without the mistakes, Amazon does collect some information through Alexa. Here's what it grabs, and how you can delete some of that info.
Stocks in Asia were mainly higher on Friday morning on the back of Wall Street gains and comments from U.S. President Donald Trump indicating potential progress in his trade negotiations with China.
The Greater China markets popped in the first hour of trade, with Hong Kong's Hang Seng index surging 2.02 percent. The Shanghai composite gained 0.89 percent while the Shenzhen composite advanced 1.591 percent.
Those markets, which some are watching in relation to the ongoing U.S.-China trade war, are inheriting a seemingly positive stateside development: Trump tweeted on Thursday that he had a "long and very good conversation" with Chinese President Xi Jinping on trade.
The president also said in his U.S. morning tweet that trade "discussions are moving along nicely" and meetings between the two leaders at the upcoming G-20 summit are being scheduled. U.S. stocks rallied in part on that signalling from the president, with all three major stock indexes seeing gains by the closing bell.
It is unclear how much progress Trump and Xi made toward breaking an impasse over how they will assuage Trump's grievances with Beijing and move toward reducing tariffs. Talks between the two countries have recently stalled as the White House pushes for an end to alleged intellectual property theft by Chinese companies and a reduction in the U.S. trade deficit with China. Beijing has so far appeared unwilling to make major concessions.
President Donald Trump said Thursday that he spoke to Chinese President Xi Jinping amid concerns about escalating trade tensions between the world's two largest economies.
In a tweet, the president said he had a "long and very good conversation" with the Chinese leader, "with a heavy emphasis on trade." He added that "those discussions are moving along nicely" ahead of planned face-to-face meetings at the G-20 summit in Argentina later this month.
Xi spoke with Trump at the U.S. president's request, Chinese state media said in a readout of the call, according to NBC News. Xi said the U.S. and China should push for "mutually acceptable solutions" on economic and trade issues and added that he looks forward to meeting with Trump in Argentina.
Radhika Jones just wrapped up her first Vanity Fair New Establishment Summit as editor-in-chief of the storied magazine. Jones, started in the role in December 2017, took the helm from legendary editor Graydon Carter, who ran the magazine for a 25 years. "It's such an interesting time to take the role, just because there is so much change outside of Vanity Fair in the worlds that we cover. It feels like we have all this opportunity to tell new stories with new faces and new voices," says Jones.
Radhika Jones just wrapped up her first Vanity Fair New Establishment Summit as editor-in-chief of the storied magazine.
Jones, started in the role in December 2017, took the helm from legendary editor Graydon Carter, who ran the magazine for a 25 years. The 45-year-old wasted no time making her mark on the magazine, putting new faces, such as Lena Waithe, on the cover and bringing a particularly diverse assortment of executives and creators to this year's summit stage.
Jones says the vision for Vanity Fair is bigger than any single editor. While Carter sparred with President Trump for decades before he was elected and frequently criticized him in the magazine's Editor's Letter, Jones hasn't made such explicit political statements. But she is engaging in the larger political conversation, particularly as it relates to diversity and inclusion.
One example? Putting Waithe on the cover. Jones says she's representative of an emerging new guard.

The Best Browsers for Windows in 2020 – The Updated List
January 10, 2020 By Tricks5 1 Comment
1 Google Chrome
2 UC Browser
3 Opera Browser
4 Vivaldi Browser
5 Maxthon
Browser is an application necessary for any digital device with Internet access. Its importance is so great that some devices, for example, Chromebook, work based on the operating system, which is 99% of only one browser.
It plays an equally important role in ordinary PCs because it will depend on the choice of the application of how comfortable you will feel in the network.
This review includes time-tested web browsing applications that can be installed on a home computer or laptop.
Pick a Browser for Your PC in 2019 – The List of The Best
If you can't decide what browser you need, then it is a perfect time to go through our fresh review. Here, we put all browsers that worth your attention. All these browsers are also considered to be the best in 2019 for Windows users. So, let us start.
Chrome is the most common browser that was made by Google. Developing since 2008, it not only became the choice of Windows users but also popularized the WebKit engine, on which the vast majority of modern browsers are built.
Promoted as the "fastest browser," Chrome really deservedly carried this title for a long time, but other programs did not stand still, and today this application is gradually losing popularity due to its "performance voracity." Poor organization of work with RAM makes its use uncomfortable on a PC with 4 or fewer gigabytes of RAM. The developer tries to turn the tide, but it turns out with varying success.
The browser supports work with several profiles, thanks to which several people can work on one PC, each of which will have its settings, memorized passwords, theme, etc. A significant advantage is the store extensions, the number of which exceeds the values of competitors.
Large selection of extensions
Resource intensity
Closed source code
This browser is developed in China and uses the system browser engine. In the case of Windows 10, this is EdgeHTML. This approach allows maximum integration of the application into the OS and provides high performance and low resource requirements. In this case, the browser adds Edge features several additional features.
The browser supports extensions. Most of the extensions created for Google Chrome, which is also based on the Chromium project, are suitable.
Also, the browser has built-in functions to speed up the loading of web pages, control mouse gestures, assign hotkeys, and filter ads. The function of assigning hotkeys allows you to select keyboard shortcuts for over three dozen actions in the browser. In turn, the function of accelerating the loading of a web page preloads the page by hovering the mouse over a link to it. Developers constantly upgrade their browser, and they fixed many issues and bugs to present uc browser latest version in the best shape.
A download manager is built into the UC Browser that can resume downloads when the browser is restarted, and also organize the download files so that they do not represent a "dump." Added voice search function, its cloud storage for parameters and improved support for web applications.
High integration with Windows 10
Speed performance
Will change the engine in the next versions
Few extensions
Opera has long been a popular browser in many countries, but from 2010 it began to lose ground rapidly. Some users switched to chrome, which is gaining popularity, while others have gone after their own Presto engine was replaced with Blink (WebKit version) in 2013. From this point on, Opera began to approach Google Chrome as close as possible, differing from it only in an icon, a title, and several additional functions.
The browser has its cloud storage for profiles, containing passwords, form data, bookmarks, and other user information. The second wave of popularity came to Opera after the built-in VPN feature appeared in it, which allows you to bypass blocking and hide your IP address from servers.
Many users also use Opera Turbo, a traffic compression technology designed to speed up page loading, but the latter is not very stable, slowing down the load more often than speeding it up.
Built-in VPN
If you take the leading developers of Opera, force them to abandon their product and provide the source code of the Chromium browser, you get Vivaldi. This characteristic not only describes the essence of the browser but also tells its story, which began in 2011, when Jon Stephenson von Techner (founder of Opera Software), left the company, not agreeing on several issues with the board of directors.
The browser was created to recreate the capabilities of older versions of Opera (up to 12 inclusive) on the Blink engine. The resulting product can perceive gestures with the mouse, quickly manage the page loading process, as well as perform other actions that were "branded" for Opera Presto.
Otherwise, this is the same Chromium, with a characteristic demanding of RAM, a system of extensions, as well as cloud profile storage (from Vivaldi Technologies).
The successor of the traditions of Opera Presto
In 2002, PC users did not like Internet Explorer but continued to use it. Then Maxthon appeared – a browser that used the Trident engine, but complementing it with features that IE lacked so much – a system of extensions, quick control over page load, as well as tabs.
For 17 years, new functions have been added to these functions, but the very reason for the popularity was precisely those facts that are indicated here.
Maxthon is a Chinese-made browser, but with localization into all languages of the world. Since 2010, in addition to Trident, the WebKit engine has become available in it, which the user can connect at any time.
By the fifth version, which is relevant, cloud applications, night mode, mouse gestures, ad blocker, and other features appeared in the application.
The main audience of the browser is users accustomed to it in the first years of its existence. For new users, it is of little interest, since it has no clear advantages over Chromium or Vivaldi.
Now, it is time to pick the browser. Of course, you can test them all, and find out what is the best fit for you. Anyway, the choice is yours.
No matter what, i won't use UC Browser. It is better to stay away from the browser as it was involved in data leak

Radiobiology is a field of clinical and basic medical sciences that involves the study of the action of ionizing radiation on living things, especially health effects of radiation. Ionizing radiation is generally harmful and potentially lethal to living things. Radioactivity in Building Biology is related to building and background radiation in new building sites. Radioactivity – giving off an energetic subatomic particle. Radioactive materials- containing unstable atoms that decay.
Natural: Pumice, concrete aggregates,drywall , tiles , granite, block and antiques.
Man Made: medical, nuclear weapons and power plants.
Building Biology comes from the German term Bau-Biologie.
Building Biology is the science of the holistic interactions between human life and our living environment.
Building Biology is the study of the impact that the built environment has upon the health of people–and the application of this knowledge for building healthy homes and work places.
Today our homes and buildings are air tight that do not provide proper fresh air exchanges, built with synthetic materials with off gassing chemicals, more and more man made electromagnetic radiation is polluting our homes. Building with synthetic materials and poor air ventilation can lead to indoor air quality problems, mold and many more problems. It seems, then, that we are helpless to stop the cultural demise of architecture. The market is continually flooded with new synthetic building materials and furniture. They have been tested and certified for their technical and physical properties, but with little regard for health. When these unproven materials are used in building, human beings become unwitting guinea pigs. As our environment becomes more and more polluted, illnesses and disease increase.

We at E4S were just wondering which 10 people they'd take with them to start a new far off world. As long as those lucky few chosen are alive... then they're fair game.
Currently Ray Mears and Sarah Beeny are high up on our reserve list!!
Mears, yep, the big boy scout would be a must.
I would also take Gordon Ramsey. Apart from all his Effing and Geoffing he's a good leader so would keep everyone in order, even mears, and every night you could sit down to a gourmet meal with all the food mears has found during the day. He's also a good footballer so after mears has fashioned us a ball from whatever he can find, we could have a kick about and put Mears in goal.
So that's two down. I would also probably take Will Ferrell, although seemingly big and useless he's be good for morale with his comedy.
Andy McNab for security and military skills.
You need someone like Jessica Alba to help produce lots of beautiful children!
I agree you would need a chef, someone with outdoor skills, a military advisore and s born leader. Will Ferell for comic releif is a good shout too!!
Have to include Johnny Vegas for several reasons..
He's unlucky, so hopefully anything bad will happen to him first and serve as a warning to others.
He's slow and that never hurts if you're unlucky enough to chased by something with big teeth as all you have to do is stay in front of him.
If all else fails remember the golden rule of survival - Eat the fat one first!
