In the heart of the Barbagia di Belvì, stretched out in a valley at the foot of the Gennargentu mountains, it is surrounded by enchanting landscapes. Its strategic position up in the cooler hills made Aritzo a summer retreat already in the XIX century, blessed as it was with clean healthy air and the fresh pure water that gave it its name: the source of is Alinos and the funtana de sant’Antoni spring, known for its very pure water.

The fine wood from the infinite stands of walnut and chestnut trees gave origin to local crafts. The town is especially famous for its characteristic nuptial trunks, known as cascie, and cutting boards, made using traditional carving techniques. And wood is also used for balconies, which are a soft pink colour and stand out from the stone walls of the houses.

Since the early 1900s, the so-called “snow trade” flourished on the mountains around Aritzo, an activity that marked the town’s history. Ice was gathered into crates lined with insulating straw and then sold during the hot summer months. You can still admire the remains of the domos de nie, the old snow pits, where the niargios preserved their frozen merchandise. The first of these deep pits date to the XVIII century. They would be carefully insulated so that the ice could be sold to various cities on the island in summer. The ice was used until the first half of the XX century to make Aritzo’s typical dessert, sa carapigna, a delicate lemon sorbet especially enjoyed during a local festivity on the second Sunday of August, and at many other summer events.

When you go to Aritzo, stop in to see the XVIII century Spanish prison, now converted for use as gallery space for Bruxas, an exhibition about magic, witchcraft and the Holy Inquisition in Sardinia. Other buildings not to be missed are the fascinating casa Devilla, which dates to the XVII century, and the Arangino Castle, built in the early XX century. The chestnut festival is held during the last week of October, together with the many other Autumn in Barbagia events in Aritzo. The woods surrounding town are wonderful for hiking or horseback riding excursions to the peaks of the Gennargentu, while in the upper Flumendosa valley you can go canoeing. Not far from town is a natural monument that should not be missed: Texile, a rocky dolomitic outcrop that resembles a mushroom.

Property Division Entitlements – Property Settlement Lawyers Sydney – Case Study

Property Division Entitlements Family Lawyer Sydney

John and Alexandra had been married for 32 years before they decided to separate. During the course of the marriage John was the primary bread winner  was self-employed as a financial advisor. Alexandra worked part time as a teacher and provided the primary care for their now three adult children. Given the nature of John’s employment he exercised control over the finances. John transferred a portion of his income into a bank account which Alexandra could access  for living expenses and to pay household expenses.

After John and Alexandra separated, she attended at our office to obtain legal advice regarding her property division entitlements. Upon hearing a basic background, it was clear the main initial issue to address was that Alexandra had limited knowledge as to the current finances. As far as Alexandra was aware she and John owned their home, had nominal savings  and had  both  had superannuation entitlements held in a self-managed superfund. Given that  Alexandra was not completely aware as to the quantum of the asset pool, we wrote to John on her behalf and requested that he furnish financial disclosure documents.

After some reluctance, John provided us with copies of bank statements, business statements, credit card statements as well as his pay slips and tax returns. After we received the documents Alexandra was shocked to learn that John was in significant debt and had obtained several loans in the last few years. Alexandra and John also had minimal savings in the bank. Alexandra  and John had paid off their mortgage 5 years earlier and given John’s income, Alexandra expected that they would have significant savings and superannuation entitlements. Upon further review of John’s bank statements it was noted that he was that making large withdrawals up to three times per week at the local RSL and TAB. After forensic review of the bank statements it was noted that in the last 3 years alone John had withdrawn approximately $350,000 of savings. Furthermore John had entered into debt of approximately $300,000.

Alexandra was distraught when she found out that John had entered into debt and significantly depleted the asset pool. Alexandra wanted to know her rights and her subsequent liability given that she was not privy to John’s actions.

Alexandra was advised that financial losses incurred by either a husband or wife during the course of the marriage, whether such losses occur joint or separately, is generally shared.  Alexandra was advised however that in certain circumstances the losses that are incurred may be either shared disproportionately or not shared at all in certain circumstances. These circumstances include:

  1. If either the husband or wife as embarked on a course of action designed to minimise or reduce the value of the asset pool
  2. If either husband or wife has acted recklessly, negligently or wantonly with matrimonial assets, the overall effect of which has reduced or minimised the value of the asset pool.

Alexandra had a good argument with regard to the above two points. Unfortunately, John remained resolute in his position that Alexandra should share all debt, and the case went to trial. The final decision of the Judge was in Alexandra’s favour, and she was able to seek an order for costs against John.

Leonardo Mayer advanced to the semifinals of the L.A. Tennis Open when No. 2 seed Mardy Fish withdrew with an abdominal strain on Friday.

Mayer will face Carsten Bell, who beat John Isner, 6-4, 6-4. Isner played with a brace on the left ankle that he twisted late in his tiebreaker win over Marcos Baghdatis on Wednesday.

The other semifinal will feature sixth seed Sam Querrey, who defeated No. 4 Dudi Sela, 6-3, 7-5, and the winner of Friday’s late match between top seed Tommy Haas and No.8 Marat Safin.

Fish, who had beaten Chris Guccione in a long, three-set match Thursday night, said that when he served he still was being bothered by an oblique muscle he had strained while playing Davis Cup against Croatia in early July and decided it was wiser to withdraw than risk further injury and possibly miss the bulk of the hardcourt season and the U.S. Open.

Fish said he also had to consider that this is a lower-level ATP 250 tournament, which means a maximum of 250 ranking points are available, and the events coming up offer more reward or more penalty should he be unable to defend the points he earned by reaching the final at New Haven and the quarterfinals of the Open last year.

“The way the ranking system is set up now for us and for the guys who finished in the top 30 last year,” said Fish, No. 21 this week, “it puts a lot of weight on the 500 (point) tournaments and the (1,000-point) Masters Series events and obviously the Grand Slams (with a maximum of 2,000 points). Those are the big ones for somebody like me and I need to be healthy for those.

“Sometimes you’ve got to be selfish and that’s unfortunate.”

    Schenck Process acquires Shenyang Stock Electric Power Equipment Company Ltd.

    Expansion of market position in power industry

    Schenck Process has acquired all shares in Shenyang Stock Electric Power Equipment Company Ltd from Shenyang Electric. As of the end of September, Schenck Process now holds 100 percent of the shares in its former joint venture.

    The joint venture was founded in 1993 between Shenyang Electric Power Machinery General Factory and the Stock Equipment Company, a Schenck Process Group subsidiary. Since then it has become one of the major suppliers to China’s power industry and its international presence continues to expand. In 2011, more than half of the products were exported to foreign countries.

    “For us, the acquisition of Shenyang Stock Electric Power Equipment Company represents an important step in our ongoing expansion to be a global supplier to the power plant industry. It further strengthens our footprint in Asia, where we still see a lot of potential. Especially with our solutions for alternative fuels and the use of environmental controls, we are able to profit from the growth in this region,” explains Dr Jochen Weyrauch, President and CEO of Schenck Process.

Can bedsore infections lead to death?

Bedsores, also known as pressure ulcers or decubitus ulcers, is a lesion caused by unrelieved, consistent pressure that results in damage to the underlying tissue.

Essentially, the bedsore occurs if pressure to a particular point of the body has impaired circulation to the underlying tissue. Without appropriate bloodflow, muscles do not receive oxygen and nutrients. Tissue and muscle deprived of blood begin to decay and die. Tissue that is closest to the bone generally undergoes this necrosis first, then travels towards the skin. As bedsores worsen, the skin opens up, and the sore become larger and deeper. The worst bedsores can be so deep that bone is exposed.

As you can imagine, the wound site contains thousands of bacteria. The bedsore may become infected when the bacteria enters the tissue and then body.

Common complications due to infection include the following:

Cellulitis: This is a bacterial infection of the soft tissue around the wound. Cellulitis appears as a red area and may feel hot and tender to the touch. This infection is dangerous because it spreads quickly, including to the lymph nodes and bloodstream.

Osteomyelitis: This is an infection of the bone. Osteomyelitis can develop quickly, often within a week. Symptoms include fever, fatigue, loss of range of motion, and swelling.

Septic Arthritis: This is an infection of the joint. Septic arthritis may result in intense joint pain, fatigue, weakness, swelling, and fever.

Sepsis or Bacteremia: This is an infection of the blood. Sepsis and severe sepsis, also called septic shock, may be very deadly. With sepsis, blood flow to organs is damaged. The infection may also cause blood clots that lead to organ failure. This is why sepsis must be identified and treated quickly. The mortality rate for septic shock is almost fifty percent.

If your loved died of infection after developing bedsores at a nursing home and you are wondering if you have a claim, then please, feel free to call and speak to one of our experienced Georgia nursing home neglect lawyers today.

How long does a personal injury settlement take?

How long it takes to settle a personal injury claim will depend on several factors, including the extent of the injury and the at-fault driver’s insurance company. However, the primary indicator of how much time it will take to reach a settlement will be the time it takes for the client to reach maximum medical improvement.

Maximum medical improvement is the point in which the injury has either been completely resolved, or further medical treatment cannot improve the injury. So for example, in soft tissue accident, maximum medical improvement may be when the client is discharged from the treating chiropractor, physical therapist, or massage therapist, and is feeling as good he or she was prior to the car wreck.

Waiting until the client reaches maximum medical improvement is important because the at-fault driver’s insurance adjuster needs full and accurate information about the injury. When the adjuster knows the full injury, then full value may be placed on the claim.

After the client has reached that level, the car accident lawyer sends the adjuster a demand package. The demand package will contain the client’s medical records, evidence of lost wages, and other items. At this point, the negotiation process with the insurance company will begin. This can take from a few weeks to a month or so. It will depend on the degree of injury and the insurance company.

Generally, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims for car accidents in Georgia is two years, meaning two years from the time of the injury. As such, there may be times where it will be necessary for the car accident lawyer to file a lawsuit prior to the client reaching maximum medical improvement or prior to sending a demand.

If you or a loved on have been involved in a car or truck accident and have questions about how long it may take to resolve, it is important that you call and speak to one of our experienced Atlanta personal injury lawyers today.

Boston Scientific Settles 3,000 Vaginal Mesh Lawsuits

Boston Scientific Settles 3,000 Vaginal Mesh Lawsuits

April 28, 2015 — Boston Scientific has agreed to settle nearly 3,000 vaginal mesh lawsuits for $119 million, or an average of $40,000 per claim, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The settlements resolved just a fraction of the 25,000 lawsuits that have been filed against Boston Scientific, including over 16,000 federal cases still pending in a federal court in West Virginia.

U.S. District Judge Joseph Goodwin, who oversees about 75,000 vaginal mesh lawsuits against seven major manufacturers in West Virginia, has advised device-makers to try to achieve settlements or face “potentially billions of dollars in verdicts.”

Boston Scientific was walloped by several jury verdicts last year. In November, four women who were injured by the Pinnacle mesh were awarded $26.7 million by a jury in Miami.

In September, a jury in Texas ordered Boston Scientific to pay $73 million to a woman who was injured by the Obtryx mesh. However, the award was halved to $34 million under state law capping punitive damages.

Boston Scientific and other mesh-manufacturers are accused of failing to adequately warn about the risk of complications, including erosion, infection, chronic pain, and the need for multiple corrective surgeries. In 2011, after receiving thousands of adverse event reports, the FDA warned that serious complications were “not rare.”

To accelerate time to market, we can simply and very swiftly supply a variant featuring your logo as an adhesive label affixed to the front foil of the controller. For larger camera order volumes, we offer even more options. For example, you could choose your own frame color, printing on the camera heads, or a specific front foil design for the controllers.

Assuming responsibility for the registrations yourself will save you considerable time and expense, and allow you to start selling more swiftly. If you want to register under your own name, we can supply the necessary documentation – or take over the entire registration process as a service for you.

How Pupils can get Ahead in Their Careers

Careers /

How Pupils can get Ahead in Their Careers

Why school leavers today need a degree of flexibility

James O’Hanlon, head of careers at Dauntsey’s School, explains how schools today need to prepare pupils for a flexible career path by giving them a portfolio of skills.

Dauntsey's Career

Today’s generation of school-leavers enter a restless world. We live in the era of the portfolio career and this demands a very different attitude to the one I had as a newly qualified research scientist some 28 years ago. Future success will depend on more than exam grades and life skills. These are important but so is thorough research, volunteering, making connections and using contacts. To prosper, young adults must continually expand their skill sets and seize every opportunity.

So, ask yourself what you can do to broaden your perspective of the world beyond school:

This exposes you to the challenges faced by individuals and communities either at home or abroad. You might want to volunteer in a school or hospital, work in a museum, assist with a conservation project or shadow someone working in a recording studio.

Be creative

If you have an idea or spot an opportunity, take a risk, aim high and make it happen. Youth is no barrier to making your mark in the commercial world. Maybe you will be the next app developer to make a million.

Go the extra mile

Tackling an expedition or the Duke of Edinburgh’s Gold Award will help you develop resilience and persistence. Challenge yourself to move outside your comfort zone. Explore what you can do to make yourself more attractive to universities and employers.

Take time out

A gap year can be used to build skills you might need in the future as well as to gain valuable practical experience. Schemes such as Year in Industry are superb and unlike some internships, come with pay. Travel helps to develop an international perspective, which you will need in an increasingly global society.

Make connections

Crucially, develop contacts and make connections. Dauntsey’s runs a mentoring programme encouraging pupils to learn from Old Dauntseians, pick their brains, explore options and discover new possibilities.

Build work experience

Work experience has its place but so has talking to people involved in your chosen career path. Ask exactly what they do, how they got there, what qualifications and qualities do they look for in young recruits? The answers may surprise you.

A documentary crew was filming at our school recently, several pupils interested in media careers wanted to know what would give them an edge. The answer was languages – the crew always need fixers who can solve problems when they are working abroad.

Choose the right degree or apprenticeship

If you don’t know exactly what you want to do after school, consider a degree that offers flexibility. Identify a course that will prepare you to work in your chosen area, but that will also keep your options open and, with luck, give you an edge in getting the job you want. You could also think global, looking at courses that offer a year abroad through the Erasmus scheme or even taking a degree in a European or US university to internationalise your CV.

Think laterally all the way. Higher level apprenticeships are an increasingly popular route into finance, business, engineering and law. Above all, go for something you enjoy and are passionate about, then do it as well as you possibly can.

There’s no such thing as a job for life these days, so never stop amassing experiences that will enable you to change your path if you see an opportunity or need to make a change. The choices that you make now will shape the rest of your life, so think ahead – it’s never too early to start that process.

Climate change is a polarizing science policy debate the likes of which humankind has never witnessed before. Even President Obama's science advisor John Holdren never dreamed up this kind of doomsday scenario when he was writing books with the king of doomsday predictions, Paul Ehrlich. Women in the workforce, CFCs, acid rain, islands of garbage - nothing from past cultural debates compares to the scariness of rolling drought and melting glaciers.  What to do? On one side we have people who insist a world where elites have energy and others do not must be implemented right now. The other side consists of people who believe that future magic science will solve the problem so we needn't worry - oddly, the former calls the latter anti-science but 'framing' is a rant for another time.

Reality won't usually interject itself into rabid ideology but maybe this one time someone will listen.  While basic research solves the clean energy problem - and it will, just not by spending another $44 billion on Solyndra-type manufacturing subsidies and instead funding actual research - the world cannot shut down. Unless we bring on a new nuclear plant every day for the next 50 years, we're stuck with the CO2-emitting sources we have.

MIT researchers may have a solution and it's similar to what we do with nuclear waste - while the perfect solution comes around, you store the bad stuff.  That way, the perfect is not the enemy of the good and fringe activists are not the only ones with electricity (they have to have it, or how else can they write about saving the planet?). Saline aquifers in the US can store a century’s worth of carbon dioxide emissions says Ruben Juanes, the ARCO Associate Professor in Energy Studies at MIT.  Yeah, that's right, ARCO.  See?  Energy companies fund science (queue the shrill 'he must be unethical' hysteria).

Coal accounts for 40 percent of CO2 emissions, it is said - even Dr. James Hansen, the most famous global warming scientist, says if we had cleaner coal we could stop worrying about oil and electric cars because our problem would be solved - so while coal cannot go away (activists suddenly hate natural gas as much as they hate coal so that is no solution) maybe the CO2 coal plants produce can be removed.

The only sticky point.  It may not be economical.  Well, what is economical?  Are we not told by one side that energy companies will cease to exist if they don't get tax credits?  Are we not told by the other side that energy is not viable unless the government plays venture capitalist and picks winners and losers (winners being companies political donors are invested in) among 'clean' energy companies?  Energy is a strategic resource, like food and taxpayers lose money on corn and milk and wheat every year. Like those, CO2 storage may not have to be profitable, it just can't be crazily overpriced.

Video: Lucy Lindsey, MIT

Let's hope profitability is not paramount, because there is no way to know if these deep saline aquifers (over half a mile below the surface, far below the freshwater sources used for human consumption and agriculture, so relax) can store a few years’ worth of emissions or instead thousands and that can't be determined without spending some money. They have no commercial value so no exploration has been done.  And we can't even get solar farms online without years of lawsuits by environmentalists and nonsense about earthquakes, you think exploring a half mile below the surface will go unchallenged?  These people protested over looking for oil in an area the size of a small airport near the North Pole, they are not agreeing to domestic analysis in the 48 contiguous states. There could be a Lost World down there and they would naturally be much more awesome than America.

The MIT researchers also acknowledged a practical issue most who have done non-research numerical modeling (i.e. the kind where things have to work and millions of dollars are at stake, not academia) recognize; the fluid dynamics of how concentrated CO2 will spread through complex underground formations is bordering on impossible to model without so many boundaries and conditions as to make results unusable. But that's a technology issue and those can be solved given enough time.

The important science issue, says co-author Howard Herzog, a senior research engineer, is that when liquefied carbon dioxide is dissolved in salty water, the resulting fluid is denser than either of the constituents, so it naturally sinks. It’s a slow process, but “once the carbon dioxide is dissolved, you’ve won the game.” The dense, heavy mixture would almost certainly never escape back to the atmosphere. That's a win.

Would 15-30% more cost be worth it? It's a policy discussion.  In 2008, President Obama said gas was not expensive enough and now he says it is too expensive, even though it is the same cost.  The American economy remains in the dumps for everyone except DJIA stockholders so another 30% might not make things any worse. The sticky point would be getting Congress and the President to actually use a carbon tax for researching solutions.  You saw what they have done to Social Security for 70 years so the prospects for a pollution tax are not great either.

20 Cards in a Tin - Day THREE - Layering Love

Hello there! It's Friday...the weekend is here and it's Mother's Day...are you ready? It's my first mother's day without my mom...strange feeling. We're going to barbecue, play some corn hole and have my mother-in-law over after church. It should be a very relaxing and FUN day! First though...I have to go down the mountain to grocery shop...Costco, Winco and R&R Meats are all on my agenda today. I was thinking about grocery shopping last night as I made my list and remembered the first time I went to Winco. For those of you who don't have one, it's a store that you bag your own groceries and I had never been to one. I made it through the shopping with my one month old daughter, my 2 1/2 year old son and Grandma Watson. She had a full cart and mine was overflowing. We get to check out and the baby starts crying (she's hungry)...I'm leaking milk and dripping in sweat because I'm trying to hurry to bag groceries...and I'm a little stressed! Finally, we finish and get out to the car to unload and I discover that my son (who was in the cart with my purse) had eaten an entire pack of Trident gum...eaten and swallowed!! His diaper smelled like spearmint for THREE DAYS! I, ABSOLUTELY called my mom to tell her gum DOES NOT stay in your stomach for seven years if you swallow it!! I giggle every time I think of this day...it's a great memory! I hope you giggle too!

Now...on to today's card!

This is the card I'm going to give my mom-in-law. The background is from the Cupcakes & Carousels designer paper pack. I inked the edges with Early Espresso and a dauber. The sentiment is from the Layering Love stamp set. I stamped it on Very Vanilla cardstock cut with the Stitched Shapes framelits. I punched a flower with Pansy punch from scrap Cupcakes & Carousels designer paper. The center of the flower is Early Espresso cardstock cut with the 3/4" Circle punch and dry embossed with the Elegant Dots embossing folder. I also cut the butterfly from scrap Cupcakes & Carousels designer paper using the Bitty Butterfly punch. I inked the edges of the flower but somehow forgot the butterfly and the sentiment, but it still looks GREAT!!

I just love this card...the colors, the layout, the sentiment! I used it in last Sunday's Facebook Hop...the theme was Mother's Day. I'm sure gonna miss the Cupcakes & Carousels designer paper....it's on sale right now (and retiring) for $6.00...I think I'll stock up!

Well...thanks bunches for stopping by today! Have a WONDERFUL WEEKEND...enjoying family and friends...MAYBE even sneaking in a little time to CREATE!!

Eastern Medallion

Good Morning and HAPPY WEDNESDAY! Hope all is well with you and yours and that you're finding time to create...it's really hard this time of year if you have children at home! Lately my daughter has been going out to my workshop with me and making halters and lead ropes for her Breyer horses. I gave her some of my retired ribbon, Baker's Twine and Thick Bakers Twine and she is having a blast! Almost all of her horses have NEW TACK!

So I'm heading down the mountain for a workshop this morning and while I'm gone River Restoration is taking TEN trees out to put in the Trinity River for salmon habitat and our trees are being taken out for FREE!  It would have cost us at least $10,000 to have that many trees removed! It's gonna be crazy loud and messy, but we'll be able to put up a small riding arena for my daughter and her horse Cheyenne (I call her Annie). She's really excited and although I'm sad to be losing so many trees, I'm excited for her! Remember this...THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A FREE HORSE!!!!

Today's card is created with the EXQUISITE Eastern Medallions Thinlits. There are SO MANY possibilities with these dies! The paper is from the Fresh Florals designer paper pack.  I know you've heard this before...I LOVE the NEW In-Colors...especially the Lemon Lime Twist, which I used for this card!

The sentiment I used is from the Best Birds stamp set and I used one of the NEW Clear Faceted Gems for the center of the medallion! These are COOL and come in gold as well! You'll be seeing more of these and the Eastern Medallion thinlits in future posts!

Here's a look at the thinlit dies! Can you see the possibilities! You can purchase just the dies or you can get them as a bundle with the Eastern Beauty stamp set and the really cool thing is you can shop right from my blog by clicking on shop now on the top left!

Thanks BUNCHES for stopping by today! I hope you have been inspired! Have a wonderful rest of your day!

FishWise partners with major hotelier to boost responsible seafood consumption among tourists

Published on
April 23, 2019

Sustainable seafood consultancy and non-profit FishWise has partnered with Palma, Spain-based hotel and resort chain Iberostar Group to bring education and training on responsible seafood consumption to Iberostar’s 32,000 employees, the organizations announced on 22 April.

The partnership is intended to enable Iberostar employees to speak confidently on concepts that are integral to the company’s Wave of Change movement. Launched in 2017, the Wave of Change initiative aims to establish a new, scalable business model for ocean stewardship in tourism through the active support of coastal health, plastics reduction, and seafood consumption.

“Providing responsible seafood options to our guests goes hand-in-hand with Iberostar’s tradition of gastronomic excellence,” said Megan Morikawa, the director of sustainability for Iberostar, which operates over 120 four- and five-star hotels in 18 countries. “We realize, however, that seafood is uniquely complex, and that the potential impact of Wave of Change hinges on empowering our employees to fully understand why we are taking these actions. We are excited to partner with FishWise to untangle this complexity and equip our team with the knowledge needed for success.”

FishWise plans to leverage its 15 years of helping businesses to develop and implement comprehensive seafood sustainability programs in its work with Iberostar. The partnership will be underpinned by a strong foundation of employee training that is expected to increase seafood sustainability awareness throughout the company and further embed Wave of Change as a key part of the identity and culture of the multinational hotelier, FishWise and Iberostar said.

Part of Iberostar’s action plan to help scale Wave of Change is to communicate the message of responsible seafood consumption to guests as an enhancement to their travel experience. By participating in the FishWise-supported training, employees will be able to achieve this aim by “familiarizing guests with how their dinner choices connect to a more sustainable future, with the intention of inspiring continued ocean stewardship once they’ve returned home,” according to Iberostar.

“The level of commitment and passion within Iberostar to create a transformative business model centered around ocean health is truly inspiring,” added Ashley Greenley, the director of business engagement at FishWise. “When it comes to progressive companies, they are the real deal.”

The partnership between FishWise and Iberostar was launched after the non-profit conducted a series of site visits to the hotelier’s Playa Paraíso complex in Mexico, which serves as its headquarters for the Americas. After hearing from representatives across Iberostar's global operations, FishWise will work with Iberostar to develop and implement the training over the next several months.

“Wave of Change was initiated less than two years ago, but Iberostar has already made significant steps in each of its three lines of action, and we’re seeing genuine enthusiasm for the movement at all levels of the company,” Greenley said. “We’re thrilled to be building on this momentum to broaden awareness – and deliver results – on seafood.”

Seafood industry group signs pact with NOAA Fisheries, BOEM over wind energy projects

Published on
March 27, 2019

A U.S. organization representing the seafood industry announced on Tuesday, 26 March, that it reached a 10-year agreement with two key federal agencies regarding the development process for offshore wind energy projects in the Atlantic Ocean.

Under the terms of the memorandum of understanding signed by NOAA Fisheries, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, and the Responsible Offshore Development Alliance, they will seek to engage local and regional fishing communities in areas where offshore wind projects are being considered. They will also determine how to deliver industry knowledge into the offshore wind development process.

In addition, they will work together to ensure decisions are made using the best available science.

"Of course, any development on the Outer Continental Shelf must consider how these activities can affect current ocean users and the marine environment,” BOEM Acting Director Walter Cruickshank said in a statement. “That is why working with federal, state, and local agencies, fishing communities, and the public in our process is such an essential part of our renewable energy program. We look forward to working with NOAA and RODA to balance the needs of all ocean users through extensive and continuous engagement."

Currently, the U.S. has leased 1.7 million acres offshore in the Atlantic for wind energy development. Once all are active, those 15 projects could develop enough electricity for 6.5 million homes.

That work is being done in the same area that is home to more than 4,600 fishing vessels. Those boats landed more than one billion pounds of fish in 2016 and are responsible for producing 140,000 jobs.

As more wind energy projects are being proposed, the fishing industry has sought to be included in discussions, so its interests can be factored in the decision-making process.

Chris Oliver, the assistant administrator for NOAA Fisheries, said the agreement with RODA comes at an important time.

“This Memorandum of Understanding will help achieve NOAA Fisheries’ strategic national goal of maximizing fishing opportunities while supporting responsible resource development," he said.

This marks the second agreement RODA has reached with key players in offshore wind development. In January, it announced a collaborative partnership with Ørsted U.S. Offshore Wind, which is working on offshore wind projects in Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Virginia.

“The fishing industry has expressed its concern about the potential impacts of rapid large-scale wind energy development to coastal communities and sustainable fishing practices," said Annie Hawkins, executive director of RODA. “This agreement paves a way forward for fishing communities to give meaningful input to federal regulators in determining the future of our ocean resources.”

Is global warming causing animals to shrink? Evidence, mechanisms and models

See & Do

town centre rs

The capital of Spain's Andalusia region, Seville's rich history is instantly recognisable by the stunning and diverse architecture which gives clues to it's past. The Giralda points to the Moors rule of the city whilst the Cathedral of Seville is it's centerpiece of Gothic architecture and the Metropol Parasol it's modern masterpiece. Seville's unique culture is also on display via it's world famous Flamenco and seafood tapas which are quintessential experiences for any tourist. See below for some of the exciting things you can see & do in Seville.

Cathedral of Seville

The Cathedral of Seville was built on the Almohad mosque. In 1401, the Cabildo decided "to build another church so good that there is no other like it and that it considers and attends to the greatness and authority of Seville and its Church as the reason dictates." It is the third largest in the world, after St. Peter of the Vatican and St. Paul in London.

Read more about the Cathedral of Seville.

Plaza De Espana

Plaza de Espana

The Plaza de España, one of Aníbal González’s masterpieces, is the symbol for excellence of the regionalist architectural movement and is now one of the most popular, representative and typical symbols of the city of Seville. It was built between 1914 and 1928 and is a free interpretation of Renaissance and Baroque styles, with references to other Spanish monuments, and executed in traditional Sevillian architectural materials: brick, wood and ceramics.

Read more about  Plaza De Espana.

Real Alcazar

Real Alcazar

Declared a World Heritage Site, the Alcázar (fortified palace) is the oldest royal palace in Europe that is still in use.Its historic background and the spectacular beauty of its buildings and gardens make it one of the most striking and seductive Spanish monuments. In 913, during the Muslim period, Abd-al-Rahman III built a fortified palace whose remains stand in the oldest parts of the Alcázar.

Read more about Real Alcazar.

Plaza de America

Aníbal González, in Plaza de América, combined a beautiful set of ponds, fountains and gardens with brick, tile, iron and water. In each one of the pavilions that integrate it, he recreated a historical style;in the background is the Royal Pavilion with Gothic traces and, on its sides, the Renaissance Archaeological Museum and the Mudéjar Pavilion. In the latter, completed in 1914, Aníbal González ideally recreated Mudejar art. With the use of brick and a precious drawing on the facade, he made a great scene of suggestive beauty. In 1972, it was instituted as a museum dedicated to the dissemination of the ethnographic and anthropological heritage of Andalusia.

Read more about Plaza de América.

Metropol Parasol

Metropol Parasol

Metropol Parasol is a wooden structure located in the old quarter of Seville, Spain, that has become the modern symbol of Seville. It was designed by the German architect Jürgen Mayer and completed in April 2011. It is 150 by 70 metres large and about 26 metres high and it claims to be the largest wooden self-sustaining structure in the world. The building is popularly known as "The Mushrooms".

Roman city of Itálica

The Roman City of Itálica is just 9 kilometers outside of Seville and is a must-see. The birthplace of Emperors Trajan and Adriano, Itálica was founded in 206 B.C and many of the cities ruins have been well preserved. One such structure is the amphitheatre which had a capacity of 25,000 spectators making it one of the largest in the Roman Empire. Visitors can also see mansions of elite families and the temple of the Emperor Trajan. This site was also used to film the television series Game of Thrones during 2017.

There’s nothing like popping a pimple. If a blemish is rude enough to show up on your face, your fingers probably itch to have a go at it—even though you’ve likely heard that you shouldn’t pop your zits. But it’s right there, and waiting to let nature run its course isn’t a satisfying alternative.

Even dermatologists get it: Popping a pimple is “so gratifying,” New York City dermatologist Doris Day, M.D., author of 100 Questions and Answers About Acne and the upcoming book Beyond Beautiful, tells SELF.

While you may have heard a blanket recommendation not to pop your pimples, that’s just not realistic when it’s 1:00 A.M. and you’re staring at a zit through your magnifying mirror. Luckily, ignoring this advice doesn’t necessarily mean you’re going to wind up doing your skin damage.

“Popping a pimple can be a good thing or a really bad thing—it all depends on the pimple and how you pop it,” Cynthia Bailey, M.D., a diplomate of the American Board of Dermatology and founder of Dr. Bailey Skin Care, tells SELF. Here’s when you can give yourself pimple-popping permission and when you should practice the art of self-control.

For starters, here’s an important thing to know: Not every pimple is the same.

In general, zits can be broken into a few different categories: blackheads and whiteheads, papules and pustules, and nodules and cysts, according to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD). They all start when your pores get clogged, but beyond that, they exhibit a few key differences.

A blackhead or whitehead can form when oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria plug up one of your pores, according to the AAD. If the pore remains open, this plug can darken when the bacteria and oil get exposed to air, hence the term blackhead. If it closes up, it looks white, and you can probably guess what that’s called.

If the skin involved gets irritated at all, your blackhead or whitehead can become a papule, which is a hard, reddened bump that looks like a classic zit. If bacteria infects the papule, pus can form as part of your immune system’s attempt to fight the infection, and you’ll get a pustule for your body’s troubles. (Though pustules have a white or yellow head, they're bigger than whiteheads, so that's how you can tell the difference.)

Then there are cysts and nodules, which happens if a blocked, irritated pore overachieves by becoming bigger, going deeper into your skin, and causing you pain. While cysts are hard and nodules are soft, they can both make people feel self-conscious and are hard to treat, the AAD notes.

Whether you’re OK to deal with a zit on your own ultimately depends on the type you’re dealing with.

In general, you’re fine to try to (gently!) squeeze out a blackhead’s contents because it’s already open to the surface, Dr. Day says. Popping a whitehead can also be OK if the whitehead is right at the surface, not lying underneath the skin, Dr. Bailey says. The latter means you’d have to really force your skin open to expel its contents, which can create a portal for infection-causing bacteria to enter. Basically, if you have to work really hard for it, you probably shouldn’t be messing with it.

Papules are a hands-off kind of situation, both since you’d have to work hard to break these hard red bumps open, and also since there’s a lot of inflammation going on under the skin. “If you try to squeeze that, you could make it worse, leading to more redness and swelling,” Dr. Day says. Also, you probably won’t get much out of a papule, if anything.

You might be able to get a little bit of pus out of a pustule that’s either oozing or has a white or yellow head ready to go, but you’ll need to rein yourself in. “If you get anything out, clean [the pustule] and then back away,” Dr. Day says. You may feel the urge to really squeeze it even after all the pus is out, but that can damage your skin. While gentle pressure to get pus on the surface out is fine, forceful pressure isn’t.

Trying to pop cysts and nodules is a no-go, Dr. Day says. Since these are bigger, deeper, and harder to treat, popping them on your own isn’t going to get rid of them (and will probably just hurt).

The way you pop a zit matters, too.

You’re just asking for trouble if you try to pop a pimple with dirty tools like tweezers or unwashed hands, Gary Goldenberg, M.D., assistant clinical professor of dermatology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, tells SELF. Mixing an open wound with bacteria boosts your risk of scarring and infection.

If you have a blackhead or firm whitehead, it’s best to use a comedone extractor, which is a handled device with a hollow circle at the end that’s specially designed to help you extract matter from these kinds of pimples, Dr. Goldenberg says. (But again, don’t use a comedone extractor if your zit isn’t ready, and don’t put too much pressure on your skin.) To use a comedone extractor, first clean your skin however you typically do, then use the extractor to try to empty the contents of the zit. Applying a hot washcloth for a few minutes or taking a hot shower beforehand can help soften your skin and make extraction easier, Dr. Day says.

If you’re dealing with a pustule, it’s OK to use your fingers, provided they’re clean and you don’t use your nails (they can scratch the skin, creating an opening for bacteria to get in and cause infection), Dr. Day says. Better yet, after you wash your hands, gently press the skin around the pustule with a tissue so your fingers still aren’t coming into contact with the area.

No matter how you pop a pimple, afterwards you should apply a small amount of antibiotic cream on the area to avoid infection, Dr. Bailey says.

If you’re nervous to tackle a zit on your own, or just want some backup, see your dermatologist.

“Dermatologists [handle pimples] daily,” Dr. Goldenberg says. Your doctor can pop the pimple for you, but they can also give antibiotics (oral or topical) if it’s infected, determine why you got the zit in the first place and how to prevent more from cropping up, and figure out if more are forming near it, Dr. Day says.

If you’re dealing with a cyst or nodule, your doctor may choose to inject the pimple with a steroid like cortisone, which will cause it to deflate and become less painful. “Cortisone is like a magic wand when it comes to shrinking giant acne [bumps],” Dr. Bailey says.

While you may be fine to deal with zits on your own, don’t be afraid to call for backup if this is becoming a regular issue—your doctor can do a lot to help.

Incredible Tips for Starting Your SEO Copywriting Career

SEO Copywriting Career

SEO copywriting is a profession that is appealing to a lot of people. Some of them use it as an additional source of income while others are prepared to invest themselves 100%. No matter how you look at it, good copywriting skills are crucial for any business as they help you promote products and services.

Even though everything looks awesome on the first glance, there are numerous things you have to consider when it comes to SEO copywriting.

First of all, it is a really demanding job. It might look simple enough but your writing style is the thing that sells products and creates a bond between website and consumers.
Having a bad copywriter can be disastrous for your blog and can have such a negative impact on your conversion rates.

This is why it’s necessary to know the difference between SEO copywriting and ordinary writing. This list of tips can help you with that.

1. SEO Copywriting is not Academic Writing or Creative Writing

When it comes to different forms of writing you have to understand that SEO copywriting is completely different from anything else. Even if you have an extensive experience writing for marketing purposes, there will still be some things you will have to learn.

I know a lot of people who have academic writing or creative writing experienced who tried to transitions to SEO copywriting. Some of them succeeded, some of them failed.

The first thing that needs to be mentioned is that SEO copywriting can be really creative but it can never compare to writing a literary piece. In fact, being too creative and too loose with your phrasing can even harm you. When creating an optimized copy, not only are you producing content for Google but you are also creating a piece that can be read by the majority of people. This means that you cannot be stylish or use complex phrasing as there will always be internet users who cannot understand something as advanced.

Similar goes with people who had experience with academic writing. Unlike essay papers, custom writing, and other scientific work, SEO copies are not made to impress a small number of people but instead a wider auditorium. At the same time, all these fancy, industry-specific phrases should be simplified so that everyone can understand what you’re trying to say.

2. SEO Copywriting is Focused on Keywords

SEO Copywriting Tips

Even with all this being said, if there was one thing that is specific for SEO copies then that is keyword usage.

Regardless of technical aspects of the copy and phrasing, your main goal is to be found by Google. The best way to accomplish this? By having a flawless on-page optimization.

So how does an SEO copywriter handle this?

The entire process starts with keyword research.

First, you have to find keywords that your copy has a chance to rank for among top 10 Google results. This can be a tough one for a beginner but you can still do it. Just focus on medium and long-tail keywords and try avoiding keywords that everyone else within your industry is using.

After finding a lucrative phase that will become the center point of your article, it is necessary to find all related keywords that go with it. You see, Google uses complex algorithms that analyze phrasing within an article. Having a certain set of phrases can tell Google that your article revolves around a particular topic. Proper usage of keywords will give you a boost for certain phrases.

By tweaking this set of keywords and adding some other phrases, focus changes and Google will start ranking you for a different set of keywords. This is why you have to be really careful when creating a copy.

3. SEO Copywriting is Your Business Card

Most blogs have educational or training content. Whether we are talking about pool cleaning or creating a decoration for the bathroom, these articles are supposed to teach readers something.

Although a lot of websites have carefree educational articles such as DIY article types, there are certain niches where your content is under a lot of scrutinies. SEO niche is a good example.

These industries are highly technical and by creating nonsensical posts, you might catch negative attention from niche’s biggest names.

Your articles are not only something that should be read by users or bring you additional traffic. Your articles are your business card. Unprofessional articles that are lacking quality information will do you no favor and the website will be quickly exposed.
This is why SEO copywriting is crucial for success as it gives legitimacy to the business.

There are a lot of hurdles that you need to jump in order to become a proficient SEO copywriter. Writing experience will definitely help but have in mind that this is something completely different and that you will have to tweak your style.

Why is there no Food Channel in Korea

Monday, September 12, 2011

Korea is a country of foodies. All day most conversations revolve around food. I am sitting with my mother watching television on Chuseok morning and as we flip through the channels I see shows for food, cooking, housewares, singing and dancing, and documentaries about food. Last night at dinner I listened to my mother discuss with her friends about the prices of food and the history behind a local farm.

Koreans are a people that like variety. This is why, according to Jia Choi, why cruise ships have never been popular with Koreans because they don't like being only on a ship. They want to get out and do lots of different activities. If they travel they really want to travel.

I think this is why Food shows haven't worked in Korea. Olive has had a go of it for a while and they are trying to start up again. I don't think it will work because they are competing with network channels like KBS and MBC. It is hard to get original food content all the time. Now if they could only get western chef shows. I think that would stand out and you would have people like me that used to watch the food network all the time growing up tuning in.

Bangor University Students’ Union’s English Language Newspaper ...more

Last week, Bangor University declared a climate emergency, joining other institutions across the world in the fight against climate change.

But what does it imply? What are the changes that will be made? How will this impact students?

The first point in understanding this topic is knowing what declaring a climate emergency means:

  • It acknowledges climate change as an imminent threat
  • It commits to certain local, national and global targets of combating climate change
  • It acts as the beginning of the climate change mitigation process, influencing policy making and planning

Simply said, declaring a climate emergency is sounding the alarm for action to be taken.

Jerry Hunter, Pro-Vice Chancellor of Bangor University, speaking at Bangor’s 2nd Youth Climate Strike

What’s Bangor University doing?

Ranked eighth in the world for its commitment to sustainability, (UI Green Metric), Bangor calls on governments around the world to respond as a matter of urgency.

Bangor University achieved the full marks available for education – reflecting the University’s commitment to sustainability education and research.

It aimed high in:

  • Green open spaces with an emphasis on pedestrians
  • Reducing waste and recycling
  • Energy Efficiency and Climate Change through smart and green buildings

Sustainability was a highlight on campus; events such as Waste Awareness Week, Sustainability Carnival, Climathon Challenge and regular Sustainability Think Tanks helped both staff and students to work together.

Mark Barrow, VP for Education at the time at Undeb Bangor, helped organize two Youth Climate Strike protests, in which the latter, a letter was given to the University urging them to declare climate change:

“Declaring a Climate Emergency – particularly from a university where climate change and biodiversity loss is studied and fully understood – sends a clear message to politicians, policy makers, the fossil fuel industry and investors that we must make urgent and significant shifts away from fossil fuels and invest in zero carbon systems.”

The demands stated in the letter can be found here.

MP for Arfon Hywel Williams, who was present and spoke at the 2nd Youth Climate Strike march, mentioned the strike in Parliament when questioning the Prime Minister on Climate Change

What does this mean?

As a result of the declaration, the University will be more accountable to acting as a ‘Sustainable University’.

In its first draft, the Estates Strategy for 2020-2030 for the University states ‘environmental performance’ as one of the key changes to be considered.

An entire section dedicated to Sustainability is also present in the draft, which can be read here.

Undeb Bangor is  looking forward to working with the University in this area, as it will help stir progress.

Ultimately, the declaration is only the start; Mark Barrow says the actual details will need further discussion with the relevant areas of the University.
