Preschoolers Thank Rotary for Books

Local preschoolers thanked Long Beach Rotary members recently for their generous donation of thousands of books to schools and students.  Rotarians in turn read to the preschoolers at the Twain Child Development Center and helped them each to select a book to keep.

With its latest donation of more than $38,000 in books, Long Beach Rotary and its charitable foundation have provided more than $400,000 in books to local students and school libraries since 1999.  The service club’s Reading by 9 program is now surpassing 200,000 books donated and this year is providing $6,000 in Scholastic books for the Long Beach Unified School District’s Child Development Center preschool program, including a book for each of the more than 1,000 preschool children in the program.

Other programs supported by Long Beach Rotary’s book donations this year include Rotary’s traditional Scholastic book grants to several local elementary schools, and $2,000 for three LBUSD schools to buy “best of” series book titles that are among the most popular books with students.  Rotary is continuing to offer e-book purchases as part of a pilot program started last year, and Rotarians recently donated $3,000 toward the school district’s Kindergarten Festivals, along with $1,000 in books for the Centennial Park Easter Egg Hunt.

Long Beach Rotary is the city’s oldest and largest service club.

South Africa to become gateway in world economy

South Africa to become gateway in world economy

While there were many  who were skeptical about South Africa becoming a full member of the BRICS group of nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) in 2010, one of the flagship projects of BRICS is set to drive the country “to take on a strategic role as a gateway in the world economy”.

This is the assessment in a recent KPMG report with the title The Infrastructure 100: World Cities Edition. The report by the international consulting firm’s Global Infrastructure Practice sets out to “showcase 100 urban infrastructure projects that embody the spirit of innovation and stand as an inspiration to infrastructure participants and city leaders around the world.”

On the communications network front, the planned undersea optic cable that will link the five BRICS nations to the rest of the world was chosen as the “featured project” by an independent international panel of experts.

The report states that although still in the early planning and feasibility stage, the BRICS cable is one of the largest and most ambitious endeavours included in the Infrastructure 100. The BRICS submarine cable is a 34 000 km, 12.8 terabits capacity fibre optic cable system that will link cities in the BRICS with the United States.

The BRICS countries are currently home to 40% of the world’s population and 25% of global GDP. With urbanisation rapidly increasing, access to a fast and secure global communications network is essential to the growth and prosperity of the BRICS states. “The impact of this project cannot be understated,” the report says.

Resoundingly positive

The concept for a worldwide cable first surfaced after South Africa was admitted to the BRICS economic bloc in 2010. Suggestions followed at the March 2011 BRICS summit in China that South Africa,the smallest of the economies in the group, was punching above its weight, and questions were asked about what additional value the country could bring to the table.

With this in mind, the idea for the cable was put forward as a way of reducing reliance on links across Europe and the North Atlantic. Currently, the BRICS countries are connected to each other via telecoms hubs in Europe and the United States, resulting in high costs and the risk of possible interception of critical financial and security information by non-member states.

A new system would provide a shorter, cheaper and, potentially, more secure route for traffic flowing between the BRICS nations – along with enhanced internet connectivity to boost economic activity.

In terms of routing, the cable will extend south from Vladivostok on Russia’s Pacific coast through Shantou in China to Singapore. A spur will be built to Chennai in India as the main cable extends further south through Mauritius, on to Cape Town, across the South Atlantic to Fortaleza in Brazil and then north to Jacksonville in the US state of Florida.

Extensions to other countries, en route such as Indonesia, will  also be possible. The cable will not be a system that is self-contained. It will interconnect with several other cables, including the soon-to-be-operational West African Cable System (WACS) and SEACOM on the East African coast.

The plan is to achieve speeds of 12.8 terabits per second, making it 1 000 times faster than the Telkom SAT-1 cable, which for 20 years was the primary connection between South Africa and Europe along the west coast of Africa, and two and a half times faster than the brand new WACS cable.

Currently the estimated completion date for the whole development is the second half of 2014 with an estimated budget of US$1.4 billion. While this amount may seem large, proponents say it is miniscule compared to the eventual benefits and impact on GDP growth.

“Andrew Mthembu, chairman of technology group i3 Africa and one of the drivers of the project, is also responsible for the WACS cable. Mthembu has stated in the press that he hopes to take many of the lessons from WACS and apply these to the BRICS system.

“According to Mthembu, the necessary information is now in place to take the next step of seeking investors for the project. Traffic and feasibility studies have been carried out and the respective governments – along with telecommunications operators in these economies – have been canvassed to gauge their support. The result has been resoundingly positive, it is reported.

Supporters suggest that the appropriate investment structure for the project would be a consortium. In this way, the operators in each country would come together by way of a construction and management agreement, making contributions to the overall cost commensurate with the capacity received from the system.

In association with Imphandze Subtel Services, i3 Africa is already in possession of the requisite telecommunications licences in South Africa to land, operate and maintain the cable. It is now in the process of formally inviting telecommunications operators and other potential investors in the BRICS countries and the United States to participate in the project.

Strategic role

“The next, crucial part is the setting up of agreements with operators and other governments, which could take a number of months to finalise. Mthembu has said the main lesson of the WACS cable was that getting the permits from 12 participating countries, each with their own regimes and laws, was the hardest part.

“When completed, the BRICS cable will be the third-longest in the world. It is likely to prove a strong step in increasing BRICS trade and driving South Africa to take on a strategic role as a gateway in the world economy,” the KPMG report states.

Commercial Property for Lease in Ralls (TX)

Properties, Ralls, Texas

Commercial Property / Space / Industrial Buildings commercial property for rent or lease, Industrial Space For Lease.

Ralls (TX) commercial property for lease, rent, and leased investments.

Find Ralls industrial buildings for lease, retail rentals, & shops. Locate a Ralls warehouse lease and any real estate for lease / investment, including industrial properties to rent and sale.

Some Ralls commercial businesses may be more productive and efficient if they have adequate office area. In some areas the monthly lease on such Ralls areas can very often make up a substantial amount of a small company's budget. Sometimes it's feasible to share facilities like conference rooms with other Ralls tenants, to reduce costs. Consider different options before taking out a long-term lease on a large workplace when the possibility may exist that your Ralls business could outgrow the areas quickly. Consider short-term rentals for companies that are growing and in transition.

Search Ralls real estate and space for sale, lease and rent

While leasing may be short term, less risky, and less expensive than purchasing Ralls commercial property, signing a lease is still a binding and legal document. Seek legal advice before beginning your search for real estate, an experienced attorney in Ralls real estate law can help you to avoid signing a contract that may be signing you up for un-necessary expenses and liability that could potential harm business. If you lack time to scout and negotiate contract terms, a broker in Ralls may be a worthy asset to use.

Ralls commercial, industrial real estate, and land for commercial or industrial development, in nearly all cases has to be specifically zoned for a particular, or multiple business use. Investments in both Ralls commercial and Industrial properties ideally will result in real estate appreciation and either be an ideal home for the purchasers business, or for the Ralls investor, a return on investment from rental income. On the other hand a misguided or emotional purchase can entail risk, such as bankruptcy of the tenant business and a decline in Ralls real estate value. Low demand for the business and overbuilding are just two reasons for declining investment return on capital.

• Manly Guybrows
  • Creator: Cmo
A long time ago, I some tried making some eyebrows that were unkempt and more manly, 'guybrows' if you will. They turned out the way I wanted, but I have this fear of uploading CAS stuff(stupid, I know), so they sat on my comp, which eventually died, sending the guybrows to oblivion.
Well, Lee and I were talking, and somehow the guybrows were brought up. She suggested I redo them, so I did(she is a very persuasive fishy). They are based on Tom Cruise's eyebrows. In the process, I also made this sim that I was quite pleased with, seeing as I suck at making sims. I have two more guybrows I want to finish, then I will upload all three.

Those eyebrows are just what my latest sim needs (he is in custom brows right now but they are a bit thick)

Hmmm. You want me to go ahead and upload these by themselves?

I could test them.... the first ones. Big Grin

This editorial appeared in Tuesday’s edition of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

It’s hard to argue with PolitiFact’s decision to award its Lie of the Year Award to President Barack Obama for his catchy short-hand comment about his signature health care law:

“If you like your health care plan, you can keep it,” Obama said over and over.

As we know now, it wasn’t true for about 4 million people, many of whom had substandard plans that are outlawed by Obamacare.

Obama was trying to spin his fellow Americans by reducing a dreadfully complicated new law to a few easy-to-remember words. And he did it: They remembered. Especially as those cancellation notices came in.

“Boiling down the complicated health care law to a soundbite proved treacherous, even for its promoter-in-chief. Obama and his team made matters worse, suggesting they had been misunderstood all along. The stunning political uproar led to this: a rare presidential apology,” PolitiFact reported.

But some context, please.

The reason insurers canceled the plans is that they didn’t meet new, tougher standards.

Some of what passed for “insurance” under such plans hardly deserved to be called the name. The government was right to set higher standards, though we acknowledge in some cases customers did have decent plans and were hit with higher premiums. The biggest problem for Obama, though, is that he oversimplified and then fibbed when he was caught doing it.

“Now, if you have or had one of these plans before the Affordable Care Act came into law, and you really liked that plan, what we said was you can keep it if it hasn’t changed since the law passed,” Obama said.

That earned the president a “Pants on Fire.”

Obama should have been straight with the public. He wasn’t, and he deserves his latest award. But it’s also important to remember exactly why the cancellations occurred and to understand them in the context of the entire law. It’s not likely that this presidential fib, egregious though it was, will be long remembered.

The Taste of the Danforth 2010, Aug 6-8

As my first post for this blog, I thought it would be very appropriate to begin with a food festival. The Taste of the Danforth Festival to be exact.

This festival is located right on the Danforth (Greektown) in Toronto and is the biggest street festival in Canada, bringing in over a million tasters to this event.

Out of the three food festivals I attended this summer, Little Italy, Little India and Greektown, the Taste of the Danforth is probably my favourite. It is filled with delicious food, music, entertainment and fun for all ages.

Finding authentic Greek food was not difficult, unlike the Taste of Italy, where all I wanted was a slice of pizza and not a single pizza booth could be found. Falafel, yes. Sushi, yes. Samosas, yes. Pizza, no.

I understand that Toronto has a great food culture, but if it is the Taste of Italy...they should have at least have ONE pizza booth.

I don't normally start by eating dessert, but my friends and I passed by a Greek pastry shop that caught our eye. There was the option of spinach pie, loukoumades, cheese pie and cream pie, all at $2.

One of my friends decided on loukoumades and he was kind enough to share a few with me. If you've never had loukoumades I highly suggest you go to your nearest Greek Bakery and try them. When you bite into one of these "tim bit" looking pastry you feel a gush of sweet nothings burst into your mouth, almost as if they were deep fried in honey.

I also tried the spinach and cheese pie, which were also quite fantastic. If you love cheese, you will loove the cheese pie.

Many of the booths featured meat dishes, such as chicken filled gyros, lamb souvlaki, and calamari. If you're a vegetarian, you may end up eating all pastries, which obviously, is not that bad an option.

Messini is a restaurant where you can get one of the best authentic Greek gyros in Toronto. You can spend $5 for a gyro that is topped off with fries, or $10 for a whole sit down meal. The line up for this booth was long, but definitely worth the wait.

Of course, before I left, I had to finish off with some tasty loukoumades. This time, I watched as they were being freshly made right in front of me. Yup, I was right, deep fried in honey :)

  1. Bet you I'm the first person to visit your blog!

Everything You Need to Know About Building Muscle Mass With Resistance Bands

By Lifehacker on at

Resistance bands are great strength training tools for home or while you travel, but they may not be ideal for building muscle mass when compared to weights. This video explains all.

The video, from youtuber Picturefit, goes over the pros and cons of using resistance bands for your workouts. On one hand, they’re great for those who are just getting started. If you don’t life weights already, you’ll definitely see some newbie gains from using resistance bands. Plus, they’re low impact and easy to use for beginners.

On the other hand, resistance bands can have an extremely wide range of resistance, making them less than ideal for some exercises. And you’ll probably get stronger faster than you realise and grow out of the light bands quickly, leaving you with the heavier bands that pull you instead of you pulling them. Basically, after a certain threshold is reached in your workouts, you’ll stop gaining muscle mass with resistance bands and have to move on to weights if you want to see those sweet gains. That said, Picturefit suggests you should eventually go for the best of both worlds and combine resistance bands with your weights. The combination of the two compensates for what each approach lacks on their own, and gives you the most comprehensive strength workout possible.
