UNO 24+ Neo from Botta-Design

“The entire day at a glance”

The consistent implementation of this concept has made our UNO 24 models bestsellers worldwide. However, some of our customers have expressed a desire for a larger version. And we are happy to oblige: now available with a diameter of 45mm, the new model is significantly larger and has greater presence than the more discreet 40mm version. The 24-hour wristwatch for fans of large and more striking watches.

Fascinating details from every angle

The idea was not only to make the new UNO 24+ Neo significantly larger than its more diminutive counterpart, but also to give it a fundamentally new and more expressive design. Building upon our 24-hour one-hand principle, we redesigned literally every detail of the watch.

One striking feature of this version is its dark dial. The eye-catching blue colour of the raised appliqués at the four quadrants and the ring of the same colour between dial and inner bezel provide a marked contrast to the underlying colour of the dial. This same colour also appears a third time on the delicate ring at the centre of the hand. Thanks to the dial’s three-dimensional geometry, the watch looks slightly different from every angle – though always innovative and fascinating.

Not only has the dial increased in size by no less than 26%; the numerals and scale markings have also been enlarged by the same amount. The “plus” in the UNO 24+ stands for additional size and contrast, while at the same time adding to the watch’s readability and comfort.

The new UNO 24+ is available with either a white or a dark dial. The case is two-tone, which once again underlines the innovative design of the watch.

The watch case: architecture on your wrist

Botta-Design has a reputation for painstakingly designing its products right down to the tiniest detail. This is particularly obvious in the black UNO 24+ Neo: no matter whether you look at the watch from the front, from the side or from the back, it always stands out for its architectural clarity and functional aesthetics. Take a look for yourself – we think you’ll agree.

It is not only the design of the watch that is first-class – its materials and craftsmanship are too. Stainless steel case, partial PVD coating, dual-domed sapphire glass with anti-reflective coating on both sides, Swiss quartz movements and high-quality leather, metal or rubber straps come as standard in this highly expressive design icon from Botta-Design.

The movement: high-quality, accurate and absolutely reliable.

The UNO 24+ models are driven by a Swiss-made Ronda quartz movement. Unlike the much cheaper “Swiss-parts” movements, the components in this movement are manufactured and assembled entirely in Switzerland.

The original Ronda movement ensures that the UNO 24+ Neo will run smoothly and precisely for many years, which reflects the Botta principle of technical and design durability in its German-made watches.

Changes to the British List (28 Sep 2018)

Dalmatian Pelican Pelecanus crispus Trevorian Pool, Cornwall, May 2016 © Penwith Nature

The British Ornithologists’ Union Records Committee (BOURC) has added the following species to the British List:

Dalmatian Pelican Pelecanus crispus
Third-calendar-year or older, near Land’s End and roaming, then Drift Reservoir and other sites, Cornwall, 7 May to 20 November 2016 (photographed).

The appearance of this individual in southwest England and its extensive stay resulted in much debate about its origin. From plumage details it was realised that the same bird had passed through Poland, Germany and France, before arriving in England. In Poland and France the record has been accepted to Category A of their respective national lists, although in Germany it has been placed in Category D.

As a first for Britain BOURC had to decide whether this bird derived from wild populations in the eastern Mediterranean, or from captive collections. Mediterranean populations are recovering with increases in numbers, and birds are known to wander away from breeding areas; conversely the species is widely kept in captivity with a number of known escapes found in Western Europe.

It is of note that the remains of Dalmatian Pelicans have been found in the Bronze Age and Iron Age fossil record from the English fens (The History of British Birds, Yalden & Albarella 2009).

After careful consideration BOURC decided that in the balance of probabilities this record likely was of wild origin.

Dalmatian Pelican breeds from south-east Europe to China, with birds moving small distances to winter from Greece to south China.

Further details will be published as part of the BOURC’s 50th report due to be published in Ibis in October 2019.

The British List now stands at 618 species (Category A = 600; Category B = 8; Category C = 10).

B.C. teachers vote for binding arbitration

Striking B.C. teachers vote for binding arbitration with provincial government

  • Sep. 10, 2014 6:00 a.m.

BCTF president Jim Iker

By Tamsyn Burgmann, The Canadian Press

VANCOUVER – British Columbia’s striking teachers are turning up the pressure in their ongoing labour dispute by overwhelmingly endorsing a third-party resolution process that’s been repeatedly rejected by the provincial government.

Jim Iker, president of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation, announced Wednesday night that 99.4 per cent of the 30,669 teachers who cast ballots Wednesday voted to end the strike through binding arbitration.

The provincial government has twice rejected the process as a way to end the strike, saying a negotiated settlement is the best method even after a mediator declared the two sides remain far apart.

“Unfortunately tonight, there is a single group of people standing in the way of schools opening their doors tomorrow,” said Iker. “The BC Liberal governmentâ€™s refusal to accept binding arbitration is now the only reason children wonâ€™t be back in class.”

Iker said the government is “alone” in its stance, adding that teachers, students, parents, mayors, school boards, legal experts, union leaders and editorial boards have called for binding arbitration.

Within 30 minutes of Iker’s announcement, Education Minister Peter Fassbender released a statement of his own, calling the results “widely expected and understandable.”

“As we have consistently made clear, binding arbitration would lead to unacceptable tax increases in this case,” said Fassbender. “That’s because the two sides remain too far apart on wages and benefits.

“The best way to resolve this labour dispute remains at the negotiating table.”

Earlier in the day, nine unions banded together and announced $8 million in interest-free loans for financially struggling members of the teachers’ union.

“It’s not going to be money that’s going to end this dispute. No one will be starved out here,” said B.C. Federation of Labour president Jim Sinclair, flanked by eight labour leaders who vowed support for teachers outside a Vancouver high school.

“It’s going to be (Premier) Christy Clark who must end this dispute by going to arbitration and solving the problems,” Sinclair said.

Along with the loans, the B.C. Nurses’ Union, which will soon be negotiating its own contract ending in March, donated $500,000 to the teachers’ union to ensure the government does not “bleed them dry,” said president Gayle Duteil.

Soon after the unions announced their support for teachers, dozens of picketing teachers protested in Maple Ridge, where their loud chanting penetrated Clark’s remarks at a municipal event.

Clark continued to reject the potential of binding arbitration as a solution that could allow half a million students to start school.

“I really do believe we can still get an agreement,” Clark said in an interview. “And I know that emotions are running very high but I also know that sometimes when emotions are running high, it’s sometimes when, strangely, these opportunities present themselves.”

The government has said the results of binding arbitration could be expensive for taxpayers. A settlement awarded to B.C. doctors by an arbitrator more than a decade ago prompted a tax hike.

The province maintains the B.C. Teachers’ Federation is asking for double the wages of 150,000 public-sector workers who have already settled contracts, but a coalition of unions has demanded the government stop using them as scapegoats.

“Using us as an excuse not to settle with the teachers doesn’t really sit well with us,” said Stephanie Smith, president of the B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union, representing more than 60,000 workers.

“Whatever is given to one set is not automatically bargained with the next,” Smith said, adding the BCGEU has sectoral agreements with a provision tied to the health sciences and nurses’ unions, but not to the teachers’ union.

On Tuesday, the union representing BC Hydro workers announced it was asking members to put forward $100,000 collateral for a loan for struggling teachers.

The amassing funds will be distributed to teachers through a general hardship fund managed by their union but not be used as strike pay, said BCTF vice-president Glen Hansman.

Teacher Nigel Reedman, who voted in favour of the binding arbitration proposal, said that option was not a “home run” for either side but that his union’s attempt to end the dispute was a “good middle ground.”

“We’re ready to go back, we want to be back and we hope the government agrees with it,” he said. “Honestly, I’m dying to get back. I love my job, and I want to get back, see my students, get back into my classroom and start teaching again. I hope it’s soon.”

Interview: “Fast” Eddie Chambers

ChambersTh“Fast” Eddie Chambers (42-4-0 22KO) returns to the ring against Galen “Bad Boy” Brown (41-31-0 25KO ) in a eight round bout on Friday, September 18th at the Claridge Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey.  Eddie has been abroad, keeping busy with training and fighting.  He highly anticipates his return to fighting in the United States and is excited about the heavyweight division; hopes to make his mark with the “Rumble at the Claridge“.  Let’s find out more about heavyweight boxer, “Fast” Eddie Chambers:

What attracted you to boxing?

My father loved the sport, and that made me have interest.  I wanted to be like my dad.

How did you get your nickname?

My first promoter gave me the nickname “Fast Eddie.”  He thought I had really fast hands for a heavyweight boxer.

How would you describe your boxing style?

I’m a boxer-puncher.  But I’m more of a boxer than a puncher.

What is your best punch?

That’s for my opponents to find out in the ring.

Why did you take a step back from your boxing career in 2013?

I had to refocus myself, and figure out why I kept making mistakes. I don’t like losing.

What did you learn during your time away from the sport?

 I learned that I wasn’t satisfied with the direction my career was headed. Certain team decisions and mistakes were made, and I take much of the blame for that. Those same mistakes won’t be a factor this time around.

Why the decision to go to the UK to train and fight?

 I was close to walking away from the sport, and an invitation from an elite team, Peter Fury and Team Fury, revitalized my interest in boxing and kept me going. They invited me to come to the UK and train with them. I spent a year with them.

Tell us about your new boxing team?

I have a great new team. Everyone on my team is positive and they are looking out for my best interest. I’ve seen huge changes already, and I haven’t even fought yet. I’m really excited about everything right now.

How important to your career is this upcoming fight in Atlantic City?

Every fight going forward from this point on is vital to my success. Every single fight.

Are you excited to be fighting in the States again?

I haven’t fought here in almost 2 years. I’m excited to fight in front of my American fans. It feels good to be back!

Do you consider yourself an overlooked veteran?  If so, why?

I made it to the top, fought for the world title, and lost to Wlad(imir klitschko).  Some people wrote me off as being too small. Basically, just being top-level guy isn’t good enough in the States.  In this division, if you aren’t #1, you can get overlooked.

How do you fit into the heavyweight division right now?

I fit in this division really well. There is a lot of talent in this division, but I believe I’m up there with the top talent. I’m looking forward to shocking a lot of people, and getting my name mentioned among the best.

What fighters have inspired you?

James Toney is my favorite all-time boxer. His mixture of skill, toughness and determination to win always impressed me. Evander Holyfield was a warrior, and he fought everyone. His heart was so incredible in the ring, that it overshadowed just how talented he was in the ring. I’m a huge Shane Mosley fan. His speed, punching power, and the excitement he brought to every fight made him one of my favorite fighters. Roy Jones Jr. did things in the ring that most trainers said were wrong, and he made them work for him.

What would be your dream fight?

I want another opportunity to fight for a world title, and an opportunity to change my life for the better.

How has boxing benefited you?

I’ve learned you can’t caught up in being up or down in your current situation. Just know being up or down isn’t meant to last forever.

What is your greatest accomplishment so far?

I’ve had a 16 year boxing career, still have my faculties, and I’m still be able to fight at an elite level.

What does it take for a boxing fan to be knowledgeable in this sport?

It takes research of other fighters, but also it helps when you actually live the live of a boxer. To really understand, it would be good to live, train and prepare for fights. Sparring and fighting make a difference, because then you will really understand what it takes to perform and do well.

How can we keep boxing strong?

The balance of power between fighter and promoter can become more balanced, boxers can get paid more, and there definitely needs to be more marketing of the individual boxers. Fights are getting televised, but fans don’t know the participants. There is a lot of negativity associated with the sport that can get cleaned up.

Boxing Diva Questions

Chambers1Favorite color:  green and black

Favorite food:  salmon with rice and broccoli

Favorite dessert:  chocolate chip cookies

Describe yourself in three words: Competitive, understanding and loyal.

What scares you?  Not being in control of my own destiny

Best part of your body?  My brain. I’m always thinking.

What would be your superpower?  I’d want the ability to heal myself, and other people.

Something we would never guess about you?  I don’t box because I enjoy hurting people. I box because I enjoy the sport.

Who is your hero?  My hero has always been my dad. He hasn’t always been perfect, but I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for him.

One thing you are NOT?  A selfish person

Your stay fit food:  Raw broccoli and kale

The words you live by:  “Do your best.”

A message to your fans:  I appreciate all of your support. Join me on this journey. This will be a fun ride.

Thanks Judi for the interview!!  Much appreciated.

Turn Weed Into Money

The stigma associated with weed is gradually being erased in the minds of the public as more and more US states declare it legal to grow, sell, and use marijuana either for medical or recreational use. Gone were the times when you’d be highly criticized for using it or you may even end up in jail if you are unfortunate enough to be caught. This change in mindset is evident everywhere from casual talks about weeds and its use and the now ever-growing and lucrative cannabis business that makes money faster than you can grow the weeds itself. And weed growers breed different varieties of cannabis as well that caters to different needs of its end users. Those who are simply after its natural high can opt for the THC-rich cannabis, which was common from even before. Medical cannabis users prefer CBD-rich breeds because it is more beneficial health-wise and does not get you high like recreational users do.

There are many variants of cannabis-based products sold in the market today. Just go to any marijuana dispensary and you can buy some that are sold as leaves itself or others that were turned into pills, gummy bears, chocolate bars or any form of edible cannabis, which is probably the easiest to take and the most affordable too. Topical wax is beneficial for body pains while tinctures are more convenient to use than sprays which leave a terrible aftertaste. The downside to all these is that it takes time for them to take effect whereas you can feel its effects kicking in roughly five minutes from a good old marijuana delivered through a vaporizer. With all these many varieties to choose from and the growing demand for weeds as a whole, it is easy to see why many businessmen want to join in on the bandwagon and take their piece of pie from selling weed.

A trade expo in the nation’s capital is showcasing how big the marijuana business is and will be when recreational use of the drug is legalized in July 2018.

Licensed producers, soil experts and companies that sell marijuana paraphernalia are exhibiting their products and expertise at the first ever Ottawa Cannabis & Hemp Expo this weekend.

The show is not only educational for current and prospective marijuana users, but also fights the stigma attached to the drug’s use, said Kevin Blackburn, the show’s manager.

The trade show includes a vaping lounge, which is only accessible to medical marijuana card holders, Blackburn said.

(Via: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/marijuana-business-expo-ottawa-1.4377543)

Not only are the products made from the weed itself rack in a lot of cash but even those products related to its use like dabbing accessories such as thick glass dab pipes among others that cannabis user likely comes across or use when they’re into the use of marijuana. They are selling products like these like hot pancakes to meet the demand for marijuana accessories as more people finally get their hands on this unassuming weed especially today that even doctors start prescribing them to their patients. It is gradually being accepted as an alternative treatment for a wide variety of medical maladies that have plagued mankind for quite some time now.

With marijuana legalization looming, Edmonton is opening up its doors to businesses and inquiries alike — from local establishments to established entrerprises.

Edmonton officials have passed multiple bylaws ahead of the federal government’s 2018 target of legalization, including bylaws that prevent existing bars and cannabis paraphernalia stores from transitioning into marijuana lounges.

But Colton Kirsop from the city said that hasn’t stopped citizens and businesses from making inquiries and applying to open marijuana-related businesses, including cannabis lounges and production facilities.

“We have heard from a number of citizens and businesses that would like to know more about [marijuana-related businesses],” Kirsop told CBC News.

He said there are “upward of 20 contacts that are interested in cannabis lounges or cannabis storefronts,” and three permits for commercial licence production have already been issued.

(Via: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/cannabis-marijuana-edmonton-business-1.4237622)

Many people are itching to know more about how a marijuana-based business works seeing the potential for profit and growth in an industry that just barely took off for real. As long as you can meet the licensing requirements and you will be starting your business somewhere that has already legalized cannabis sale, then you’re virtually good to go. And the good thing about this thriving business is that it will not only profit the owner but it will eventually generate hundreds, if not thousands, of new jobs that will have a positive effect on the local economy. So, it’s a win-win situation for all, that’s if you have an open mind to the use of marijuana at all.

"I had a tough time trying to acquire a domain that fit with the business I was starting. That was until I found a great site, Brandroot, that provided many options to choose from. I found the perfect name for my business and Michael from Brandroot was very easy to work with and assisted me in redesigning the logo as I wasn't too fond of the current one. Overall experience was a very positive one. I definitely recommend Brandroot over its competitors."

adam smith

Arnoldo V.

"This was my first time buying a brand name online. It has been a wonderful experience at Brandroot. The process of getting a business name, domain and logo has been very smooth and easy. It took about 15 minutes to get everything completed! I highly recommend their service. Thank you Brandroot for all of your help! Look forward to working with you again in the future."

adam smith

Sunny E.

"We had a clear idea of what we wanted to achieve – a name that reflected unlocking the potential of an individual / group and taking an objective point of view. We achieved this with Brandroot when we found Mentisa, which is a combination of ‘mentis’ (of mind) and an appended ‘a’ from ‘archimedean point’ (a hypothetical vantage point from which an observer can objectively perceive the subject of inquiry). This works well for us."

Brian H.

"After working months with brand experts, we decided on the theme, values, and vibe we wanted, but we couldn't nail down the hardest part: the name. We went to Brandroot with a vision and clear understanding around our offering and mission. From there, it was like shooting a basketball on a rim the circumference of a trampoline. The hardest (and most expensive) part of the process, finding the name, was waiting for us after we brainstormed our brand, mission, and values."

"Very helpful and friendly service. I have purchased 4 names from these guys with no issue. Brandroot has been my goto for startup names and even business ideas. They make the process of finding a name not only simple but fun and rewarding. I receive same-day responses to emails I send them and always get an answer to my phone call inquiries. I've always been very pleased with their service and always looking forward to browsing their names for my next business venture. I can't recommend them enough! Thanks Brandroot for another smooth transaction and helpful experience!"

Geronimo P.

"I spent 3 weeks searching for the right name for my new company, which was a very tough and impracticable job. That is until I found Brandroot. The job turned into a very quick and clean process and was completed on the same day that I found them. My customer service rep provided amazing customer service. I am not a tech savvy person so he walked me through the entire domain transfer process over the phone and through email and was there whenever I needed him. Brandroot, as well as their customer service, is totally trustworthy, responsive and thorough! Finding the right name and going through the process of transferring is not an easy thing for new business owners. Work with Brandroot! They will take care of you!"

Botox Isn't Just for Wrinkles: Here's What Else the Real Housewife-Loved Injections Can Treat

Botox Isn't Just for Wrinkles: Here's What Else the Real Housewife-Loved Injections Can Treat

Did you know that people use Botox injections to treat TMJ, chronic migraines, and overactive bladders?

By Marni Eth
tinsley botox

This week’s episode of The Real Housewives of New York City started with a bang. Or more specifically, a shot… of Botox. Tinsley Mortimer brought her mother, Dale, along to a dermatologist appointment for some Botox injections — but this wasn't the wrinkle-freezing session we're used to seeing on The Real Housewives. Tinsley explained she was injecting her jaw to help relieve Temporomandibular Joint Pain (TMJ) caused by teeth grinding. Apparently, Botox injections can help with this.

Tinsley isn't the only Bravolebrity to try Botox in her jaw for teeth grinding issues; Vanderpump Rules' Jax Taylor also recently got the treatment done at his plastic surgeon's office. This piqued our interest: What else can Botox be used for? We got the scoop from Dr. Mitchell Brin, who is the Chief Science Officer at BOTOX®. Dr. Brin explained that, although there is evidence that supports Botox can help with that issue, that particular use isn't officially endorsed by the manufacturers. Read on to learn about the several unconventional ailments Botox is approved to treat.

1. Chronic Migraines

People who suffer more than 15 headache-days a month with pain lasting longer than four hours fall into the chronic migraine category. For this condition, there are 31 proven injection sites, divided across seven specific head and neck muscle areas.

Common injection sites include by the inner end of the eyebrow, the area between the eyebrows, the area that wrinkles when the forehead is raised, the side of the head, the back sides of the head, the back below the head, and the upper back shoulder blade area. The usual recommended re-treatment schedule for chronic migraines is typically every 12 weeks.

2. Excessive Sweating

The medical term for this condition is called hyperhidrosis, and although there are people who experimentally use injections for their sweaty palms and scalps too, it is technically only approved to help excessive sweating in the armpits (primary axillary).

If you suffer from very wet pits that can’t be controlled with normal deodorant or topicals, this could help. The shots can be repeated when the effect of a previous injection diminishes.

3. Overactive Bladder (OAB)

This potentially embarrassing condition is bladder dysfunction with a strong need to urinate associated with leakage, urgency, and frequency. For this type of therapy, the medicine is injected into multiple areas of the bladder muscle through a small tube called a cystoscope. This typically helps for about 24 weeks, but if the symptoms return, the treatment can be repeated sooner.

The treatment is also approved to help unwanted peeing called urinary incontinence (Detrusor Overactivity). This particular form is usually associated with a neurologic condition, such as a spinal cord injury or multiple sclerosis, which causes involuntary bladder spasms that squeezes the bladder muscles suddenly without warning causing an urgent need to pee and/or leakage. When used for this condition, it usually lasts for about 42-48 weeks.

4. Involuntary Eye Muscle Spasms

The medical term for this condition is called Blepharospasm, which results in uncontrolled involuntary blinking, narrowing, spasms, and closing of the eyelid. Additionally, it can also help people who suffer from cross-eyes (strabismus). There are three approved injection sites for the treatment of blepharospasm, which include the outer upper and lower lids, and the inner upper lid. Each treatment lasts for approximately three months, following which the procedure can be repeated.

5. Muscle Stiffness/Tightness

The medical term for this is called Focal Spasticity, which occurs when certain muscles in your body become stiff or tight in the upper and/or lower limbs. According to research, 58 percent of stroke survivors experience spasticity that interferes in their recovery.

When treating with injections for upper limb spasticity, it can help patients decrease the severity of increased muscle tone in elbows, wrists, fingers, and thumb flexors. Approved injection sites include muscle groups in the arm and hand. The injections are also approved to help with lower limb spasticity, which can help decrease the severity of increased muscle tone in ankle and toe flexors by injections in those muscle groups.

6. Uncontrolled Head Tilt

The medical term for this is Cervical Dystonia, a condition in which neck muscles contract involuntarily, causing the head to turn or twist to one side or tilt. The dosing and injection site is tailored to each individual patient based on the abnormal head and neck position, localization of pain, and other factors. Typically patients see a noticeable difference two to six weeks after the injections, which last for about three months.

Walmart Yodeling Kid Rocks Out with Celebrities at Coachella

Indio, CA

Most visitors to the Coachella Festival can boast of seeing the most popular music artists in America, during the music festival’s opening weekend. Visitors to the opening weekend of Coachella 2018 can make that same claim, however, they can also say that they got to see the Walmart yodeling kid.

Mason Ramsey, the 11-year-old YouTube sensation who has attracted clicks and views by the millions for his yodeling in the aisles of a Harrisburg, Illinois, Walmart, took the stage alongside DJ Whethan on Friday.

Whethan introduced Ramsey as the person who needed “no introduction,” a fact proved true by the explosion of applause and cheers as fans welcomed the yodeling kid to the stage:

Fans weren’t the only ones caught up in the excitement of Ramsey’s performance, Justin Bieber got into the act as well:

Ramsey’s appearance at Coachella came about due to a tweet from DJ Whethan, as he told his followers to, “Stop saying I look like the walmart yodel kid:”

From that tweet, began the process which ended with Whethan inviting Ramsey to appear with him at the festival.

Ramsey announced that he was playing Coachella on Instagram:

Nor is Coachella the last stop for Ramsey on his whirlwind tour, the kid made famous by yodeling and YouTube will perform at Nashville’s legendary Grand Ole Opry on Saturday.

Jose Antonio Vargas: Being An Illegal Alien Made Me A Better Reporter

Jose Antonio Vargas is the perfect example of media bias. He presents himself as both an activist for illegal immigrants and a “journalist.” He’s uniquely suited to this claim in today’s PC world, too, because he is himself an “undocumented American,” as he styles it. And in a new interview he also claims that being an illegal alien made him a better journalist.

Vargas has blurred the line between journalist and activist since it became public knowledge that he has been in the United States illegally since he was a child. After his coming out, Vargas launched himself into advocacy for illegals. Only in the Old Media establishment can someone advocate for a political viewpoint yet still be consider a just-the-facts journalist. Vargas isn’t the only one, of course: Remember such “journalists” as Sanjay Gupta, Chris Matthews, Jay Carney, or Linda Douglas? Well, if you are a left-wing activist it works, anyway.

In the new interview with The Ithican’s TinaMarie Craven, Vargas posits that his status as, in his words, an “undocumented American” (nice conceit, that) made him a more careful reporter. He had to exhibit the utmost veracity, he said, because if not people might start looking closer at him and his background.

My job was to do the best job I possibly could. I was too paranoid to make a mistake, God forbid being charged with plagiarism or having a lot of corrections or people saying I needed to check a quote. I am a very diligent reporter. I’ve had maybe one dozen corrections in like almost a 12-year reporting career. That’s pretty good. And there are days where I think, yeah, I had to lie about my immigration status to get the jobs, but I don’t think my journalism — the work I produce — I don’t think people would question the quality of the work or the veracity of the work.

Well, that is some kind of justification, isn’t it? I mean, at that rate perhaps a crack dealer would make a good reporter, eh? Not that being illegal is like being a crack dealer, of course, but being illegal has no bearing on the “veracity” of a reporter’s work, either!

But what might impinge on that veracity is that since coming out as an illegal immigrant, Vargas has become a vocal and ardent activist in favor of illegal immigrant’s issues. So, how can one be an advocate for something yet still claim to be an impartial journalist? Well, one can’t, really, but since he’s in the proper, politically correct area with his activism the rest of the Old Media gives him a pass.

Aside from his current colleagues, Vargas has a lot of people to thank for his being able to fool employers and readers for several decades. Even as a High Schooler, Vargas was facilitated in his la breaking by highly placed members of California’s education establishment — two in particular.

In High School Vargas relied on Rich Fischer and Pat Hyland, two high-ranking California public school officials, to help him with his criminal activity.

As a teen Vargas was helped to get an illegal Oregon Driver’s license by these California teachers and this fake ID is what he used for years to get away with his lawbreaking.

Pat Hyland was the principal in the high school Vargas attended (Vargas wrote of her back in 2005). Like a good, militant leftist, Hyland has proclaimed her intentions to help even more lawbreakers if she can.

For his part Rich Fischer has had a storied career in California’s public schools sector. He has been a celebrated schools administrator, a recipient of the Superintendent of the Year award, and was a nine-year Superintendent of the Mountain View-Los Altos Union High School District. He has also won the Los Altoan of the Year award. Additionally Fischer managed two statewide professional development programs, one of them being the Executive Leadership Center (ELC). And all the while he’s been helping illegal immigrants get one over on the law.

To recap Vargas’ trajectory, for years he’s been lying to millions of readers not to mention countless employers, broken laws, elicited the help of others to help him break those laws, then after “coming out,” he’s become an activist and endeavored to shove his law breaking in all our faces as if it is all our fault–yet he still wants us to take him for a true journalist? Well, as the left measures things, I guess he is just that: The perfect leftist journalist.

Cable Show 2009: Recession? Not at Wealth TV

Publish date:

Cable Show 2009: Complete Coverage

If you’ve been agonizing over your depleted 401k instead of savoring a masterfully-rolled fine cigar, Wealth TV is hoping to change that.  Attendees at this year’s Cable Show will be treated to a demonstration from world record cigar roller Frank Ruiz, who Wealth TV is flying in from Columbia exclusively for the event. In addition, the channel is handing out 1500 free cigars at the show in D.C.

“Fine cigars speak well to our brand,” said Charles Herring, president of Wealth TV in an interview with B&C.  Wealth is also exhibiting a bright red Ferrari F430 and a Lamborghini Gallardo at the show.

If it sounds a little distasteful to flaunt such luxury in this recessionary time, Herring disagrees.  For Wealth TV, it’s all in the name of escapism.

“One of the nice things about Wealth TV is we offer a vicarious living aspect,” said Herring, adding that the channel promotes an “informative, all-inviting” atmosphere to attract viewers interested in fine living regardless of their economic status.

And frugal times for most are boom times for Wealth TV, according to Herring. The channel is seeing increased viewership as more Americans who are spending (and working) less find themselves at home and in front of the TV set, though the channel was vague on actual numbers of increased viewers.

“We are firm believers that a lot of people turn on TV to escape to enjoy the finer living,” Herring said, though he says his channel is “very aware of the economy, as everybody is.”

But no matter what your feelings on Wealth TV or the fact that people are watching it more now that they have considerably less wealth, you have to be impressed with Ruiz, a guy who once constructed a 58 foot 4 inch cigar.

“We’re literally flying him in for this event,” said Herring. “Which I just find unbelievable.”

Note passing nincompoop

A 40-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a series of bank robberies in downtown Brooklyn last week. And he’s probably kicking himself for it.

That’s because suspected bank robber Roland Hill was arrested after he was spotted outside a Sovereign bank on Montague and Court streets, which he reportedly robbed a week earlier.

Officials said that he was standing near the corner at 9 a.m. on December 24 when he was recognized by a teller at the previous robbery.

Investigators quickly linked him to heists on December 18 and December 22 %u2013 all which occurred at the same branch.

During the December 22 heist, he left the bank with $1970, officials said. On December 18, he managed to scare $1000 out of the teller.

Cops later connected Hill to the robbery at the Sovereign Bank branch at Avenue U and McDonald Avenue, officials said.

In that case, the thief entered the bank at 12:30 p.m. on December 11 and passed the teller a threatening note.

“Count out $5,000 and no one will get shot,” the note explained. “Don’t try anything stupid. Don’t make me kill you.”

Despite his lofty demands, the teller handed the thief just over $100, officials said.

The thief ran off without harming anyone.

The Story

We built the Buildini as a reliable and large format 3D printer for our own use in our workshop.

Within the walls of Budmen Industries, experimentation is the name of the game. It is common to find 3D printers printing everything from pastry to fabric to furniture. Needless to say, this sort of constant experimentation can be very demanding on a 3D printer.

Our goal was to build a 3D printer that could meet the demands of extreme experimentation, print big objects and make maintenance quick and easy.

We started from the ground up. Challenging the industry’s traditional ideas and construction techniques. We obsessively pushed for a simpler, more reliable machine. Thousands of hours spent experimenting, testing and refining resulted in a 3D printer that is minimal, modular, and maintainable. We call it the Buildini.

We hope that you use this tool to experiment and discover its possibility.

- The Budmen Team

Detail Obsessed

Some call it obsession. Some call it crazy. For us it is the only way to do it right. When it comes to quality every millimeter matters. That is why we bring the same fanatical level of attention and care to each stage of fabrication. You can be confident every screw, connector and component on your printer has passed our rigorous quality control tests.

Modular Design

The Buildini 3D printer is modular. Every component easily drops into place like Legos®. This approach simplifies assembly and assures a high level of quality control on the production line. Best of all it makes maintenance for you easy.

Frontier Yellow

Beacon of Possibility

Pioneers are a special breed. They are a courageous bunch who roll up their sleeves, dive in and get their hands dirty. They are rebels who don't wait for the future, they seize the possibilities today. They rely only their tools and intuition to get them there.

Frontier Yellow is a beacon of possibility for pioneers, illuminating the path forward.

Quality Connections

The quality of every connection matters, inside and out. Buildini uses the highest rated and most reliable connectors on the market to guarantee thousands of hours of run time.

What will you make?
