Marring of these coatings by aftermarket accessories is not covered by this warranty and shall incur repair costs and fees based on the nature of said repair/replacement. Repair requests of the latter nature are on a case-by-case basis for approval.

All modifications to firearm products, attempts to repair, dry firing, or break down except for the attachment of aftermarket accessories to rails, void this warranty and forfeit the initial service term stated above.

The company reserves the right to determine all ammunition returns and replacements on a case-by-case basis due to the types and amounts of ammunition sold. In order to initiate a return or replacement request for review supporting media, percent fail rate, make/model of the firearm used, and ammunition lot number are required.

Long-Term Disability Federal & Postal Employees: The Doubt of Openness

We have all seen it: In sports, and particularly in basketball, where a singular player suddenly finds him or herself alone in the open court, the ball in hand, with no one anywhere near.  All that the player has to do is to dribble, take a few steps and lay the ball into the basket.

What happens?  There is a hesitation.  Why?  Because the normal course of things has not occurred — no defender, no opposition, no crowding, no attempt to block him, etc.  The doubt of openness makes the player hesitate.  Or even in football — a wide opening for an offensive back or a catch in the open field, with the goal post open and a clear pathway with no opposition.  Then the hesitation, the look back, the sudden doubt of openness.

For Federal employees and U.S. Postal workers who suffer from a medical condition which prompts an initial, tentative look at the forms required for Federal Disability Retirement benefits — the “openness” and simplicity of the questions asked may make you believe that the field before you has a clear and unimpeded pathway.  Then the doubt of openness will, and should, suddenly prevail.  Because, in the end, there is no clear path in a Federal Disability Retirement case, and the opposition will appear suddenly enough once it is filed with the U.S. Office of Personnel Management.

Contact a Federal Disability Lawyer who specializes in Federal Disability Retirement Law in order to quell the chimera resulting from the doubt of openness.

Lifestyle Reorientation Planning

Lifestyle Reorientation Planning

We all have more than just one role in our lives – we’re at the same time hardworking business people, 24/7 parents, best friends, pet owners, housekeepers, caring spouses and lot more. While this variety makes the life exciting, fulfilled and amazingly generous, it often comes with a lack of sleep, anxiety and thousands of other bad habits included. So, in one moment you’re holding all the strings in your hands, and in other, you’re struggling with excessive weight, smoking a bunch of cigarettes a day and losing your confidence. Luckily, this life gives us more than just one chance and shows that it’s never too late to get back on the right path, and this is how to use that precious opportunity in the best possible way:

Take it easy

Every change requires a lot of effort and much more time, so when you dive into the lifestyle reorientation adventure, don’t try to swallow everything at once but break a giant bite into a few smaller and easily vincible ones. Arm yourself with time and try to set short-term, achievable goals, because that way you’ll maintain your motivation and increase the chances to persevere to the end.

Say goodbye to junk food

Eat The Right Healthy Food

Life is too short for bad food choices, especially when you know that “eating whatever” soon or later results in a number of serious consequences (and obesity is not the worst one). So, don’t you think it’s time to quit with burgers, chips, sweets and other slow killers, and welcome a bit “greener” food into your life? Instead of starting your day with a dish full of processed stuff, refresh your organism with quality whole foods, such as protein rich beans, tofu, whole grains and lean meat. Replace sugar and fat laden food and drinks, with natural juices, fresh- made smoothies, whole fruits and other organic ingredients available at the local market. And remember, you are the role model for your kids as well. In other words, if you love eating pizza and tell them it’s unhealthy, it’s not going to work.

Stop being a couch potato and embrace exercising

Everyone knows how it can be easy to fall in love with TV, couch and bunch of snacks, especially in the moments of anxiety, but the fact is that nothing calms better than physical activity. That’s more than a logical reason to bring exercising into your life, where you won’t just improve your body appearance, but also overcome stress and empty accumulated negative energy. Give yourself a break from everyday duties and go for a 30 minutes jogging, stop by to a nearby gym to perform strengthening and cardio trainings or simply workout at home.

Confront your vices and unhealthy habits

Nigella Sativa

If cigarettes and alcohol are your best friends, you’ve got the worst companions ever and it’s time to end that life – threatening friendship once and for all. Not only that you’ll free your organism from deadly toxins, but you’ll get rid of an illusion that these vices are actually helping you. Had a rough night? Alcohol will definitely harm your immune system in the short term. Most people know what it is like to drink a couple cups more than they actually needed. Therefore, you should know that Aronia juice is an instant cure for a hangover. In addition, if your immune system is even more vulnerable for some reason, you can do some research on healing benefits of nigella sativa.

Staying awake until dawn is not the funniest way to spend the night, but yoga, soothing baths and positive mindset may help you build healthy bedtime routine and restful sleep.

When it comes to the lifestyle improvements, you always have only two choices – to think it’s hard and time-consuming or to stop looking for excuses and change your life now.

    This is a delightfully relevant article 🙂 I wouldn’t mind seeing more of the tips mentioned, but in depth – such as “motivate yourself to get off the couch”!
    Good work to everybody involved.

    I think it’s way easier to look at one part at time as not to get so overwhelmed. Then it becomes a habit and replaces the old habits.

Desperate call for help on TV these last couple of days.

Marcelo Tinelli, Susana Gimenez, Mirtha Legrand, Jorge Rial. These names of course mean nothing to most of you.

These are local celebrities. I guess the equivalent, or at least the Argentine version of Ophra, or other big shot TV hosts and gossip shows.

I don’t care for their TV programs or them personally, but what these people have been talking about and demanding these last couple days is something that affects us all.

They are all pretty different and yet something unites them all along with every other Argentine: Crime. The terrible crime situation we live in that I talk about so often here.

These people have the hottest shows on local TV, some have amassed huge fortunes. They have the bucks for serious private security and bodyguards, yet they feel vulnerable too.

They each talked in their own show, all looked pretty fed up and the message was similar.

“Someone please do something, we can’t keep living like this”

They talked about who the politicians and the government do nothing, they announce useless measures no one cares for but no one addresses the crime problem.

I found myself nodding and agreeing with many of the statements and it was nice to see I’m not alone. Even with some of the more extreme measures and attitudes, I’m not alone.

85 year old Mirth Legrand said “Us Argentines, we live checking out our back at all times. Even I do that, looking back to see if someone is following our car, we can’t keep living like this, scared all the time.”

Marcelo Tinelli is probably the richest man in the local show business.

His security detail involves mostly an armored Humvee and two other armed vehicles full of armed guards. There’s no gray man approach for the most famous face in Argentina, someone readily recognized by anyone. He moves around at all times with a convoy you’d only see in Iraq. He protects his family in a similar manner, and yet his 10 year old son suffered a kidnapping attempt.

Now let me clarify something. I’m not a fan of any of these guys, I don’t like their shows or even like them much. What I do is agree with what they are saying in this matter because it’s the truth.

You have to be very naïve not to recognize the situation we live in here.

I agree, most of these self involved celebs only react when danger and crime is right in their face. Before, they lived in their perfect little world while the rest of us have been living with this for years now.

Mirtha Legrand got her jewelry robbed at gunpoint by armed men when entering her car, in spite of her bodyguards.

That’s the point, for a high profile person or someone that wants to be truly safe, a couple bodyguards isn’t enough any more, you need a convoy of at least 3 armored cars packed with trained and well armed people. Its insane but that’s the only way you have a chance against commando strikes and organized kidnapping attempts.

Susana Gimenez desperately called for the death penalty after a good friend of hers was beaten, tortured, tied and thrown to his pool where he drowned during a home invasion.

As Jorge Rial said, the numbers just don’t match. He turned and asked the sidekicks he had in his show, 4 or 5 other persons. “We’ve all been robbed several times, haven’t we?” Everyone agreed fervently.

And that’s something I’ve comment on before. It’s not normal when you walk into a room and its almost impossible to find a person that hasn’t been robbed with violence, either hurt or forced to look at the wrong side of a gun barrel. Its getting harder and harder to pretend nothing is going on.

Crime in Argentina is simply out of control. Please don’t bother with INDEC numbers, you might get luckier just rolling a dice.

As Mirtha Legrand said, and I totally agree with the old woman:

“They are killing us all out there”

Anonymous said...

I'm sorry to learn of the desperate situation there. As always the innocent pay the highest price. Should the US follow the Argintine path we'll have to issue a new hunting tag for kidnappers.

Remember a visit to Brazil some years ago. Within the city limits of this 'corporate' town about an hour from Sao Paulo, one felt safe. Everything was wonderful and well kept. The town was surrounded by polo fields and mansions. The ubiquitous wrought iron fences and high walls however told another story.

Early on a Sunday morning we met a client interested in property. He showed up in an old baby blue Toyota 4 door sedan. Out hopped 3 body guards and one wealthy Japanese business man.

The rich will create for themselves a protective bubble, yet will find themselves prisoners.

Crime in the US is nowhere near the levels you describe in Argentina...yet.

This serves to highlight the end result of the current path politicians are pushing in the US. When you demonize people who worked hard to earn a lot of money you create an environment of class warfare and punish those creating jobs. The whole idea of capitalism is to make it easier to make money legally than illegally. Remember that nobody pays taxes on illegally earned income - something that creates even more pressure on honest taxpayers.

A robust economy is the number one deterrent to crime. If people can get decent jobs there is no reason to commit crime. People with nothing and no hope have every incentive to simply take what they need by force. When someone does this because there's no other way to feed his family, it's hard to even call it a crime.

Crushing taxes, onerous regulation and policies that reward people for doing nothing are all disincentives to people running honest businesses that create jobs.

Government has never created one cent's worth of value. Every government job is supported by someone else who is paying taxes on income earned working an honest job in a legitimate business.

Think about all the selfish interests being served in the political process and you have a pretty good idea why government does NOT know best what's good for you.

>> When you demonize people who worked hard to earn a lot of money

Totally oversimplifying. There are many people in the US who worked hard to STEAL a lot of money.

And with their ill-gotten gains, wealth is increasingly concentrated. Billions for Wall Street and "trickle-down" for Main Street. Not just now but for the past 2 decades.

Over the past 30 years of increasing US government debt, Wall Street pay has increased as a percentage of overall GDP. (Not just in overall absolute terms. But, as a percentage of the overall figure.) For what? What did these people contribute to deserve their huge salaries and bonuses?

Bones, I see you (and others with your point of view) as a contributing factor in the US's descent into a banana republic: concentrated wealth, no money for continuing social services, and so a breakdown in the whole system.

What you should be screaming about is that HARDLY ANYONE AT THE TOP IS GOING TO JAIL FOR ALL THE THEFT.

It is a breakdown in JUSTICE that destroys a nation, leading to ever greater cynicism and selfish thinking. That is what you should be complaining about.

you think the problem is "concentrated wealth"?
I think you'll feel right at home in Cuba or Venezuela.

Wunsacon, you're confusing the worst capitalist excesses with small business entrepreneurs. If someone can honestly build their small business into a huge company then more power to them, or do you hate the guys running Google, too?

Virtually all new jobs come from new businesses and it's vital to support entrepreneurship as THE engine of employment. At the same time you're ignoring the fact that the money for social programs comes from taxes on people working above the board. That's you and me, brother. Higher taxes and more government control just force small employers to cut jobs or hire under the table, which means the workers aren't paying taxes to support the social programs you're so concerned about.

Of COURSE the elite don't pay their fair share - but they're the ones making the rules: what do you expect? I'm not saying that there aren't problems - obama put a tax-cheating former investment banker (geithner) in charge of the treasury department after all. Fox in the hen house I know, but those problems occur in EVERY political/economic system.

I'm not saying you shouldn't be mad about the excesses, but that doesn't mean we should demonize everyone who wants to make money. What's wrong with wanting a better life for yourself and your family?

If you still think I'm wrong, go try to start and run a successful small business like me and see how hard it really is. THEN you can see how you feel about the government laying claim to half of everything you worked so hard to earn.

Take a page from the Sein Fein Ferfal:

Tyrants always try to shut people up, the real question is who will take your place?

I don't have an in-depth understanding of Argentine history, but it seems to me that Juan Peron set the tone for the future of Argentina by appealing to the "shirtless ones" and using them to gain power. Now they are the "untouchables" in that they can't be put in prison for crime; they can't be denounced in public, or blamed for the chaos they cause, because those who dare say this will be called "selfish" and "uncaring."

We have the same construct being put together here in the US. When the army of "shirtless ones" in the United States is large enough (and it may well be large enough now), the socialist takeover will proceed.

Hence the government's refusal to guard our borders, and the mad rush to give welfare to as many people as possible.

Having celebrities robbed is cool

They have power, influence, and they are a part of the solution

Basically there will be no solution ever towards security problem as long as the public opinion keeps compassion for criminals. So if the people in position of influence public opinion talk about crime, it is cool

Vegan Buffalo Mac & Cheese will make your dreams come true one bite at a time.  It’s the ultimate comfort food!  Each bite is creamy, loaded with buffalo spice, and has the slightest crunch from toasted breadcrumbs.  It’s the perfect recipe to take your dinner game to the next level.

The recipe can be found here.

The first step is to bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the noodles according to package instruction.  Drain and set aside.  I like to use chickpea noodles because they are packed with protein and fiber but use any noodle you prefer.  I think the texture of chickpea noodles is very similar to regular noodles, as well as the taste.

Next, bring a small pot of water to a boil (you can also do this while the noodles are cooking).  Once the water is boiling, turn off the heat and add the cashews.  Let the cashews sit in the water for about 10 minutes.  This will help the cashews become soft and make your sauce creamier.  Then, drain the cashews and add to a high-speed blender.

Add the nutritional yeast (helps give the sauce a cheesy flavor), buffalo sauce (any brand of your choice), almond milk (I use unsweetened), salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to the blender.  Blend on high until smooth.  The sauce will be fairly thick.  If you want a thinner sauce, add another 1-2 Tbsp of almond milk.

This next step is optional.  I like to add toasted breadcrumbs on top of the mac & cheese because it adds a nice crunch to eat bite, enhances the flavor, and helps cut some of the buffalo spice.  However, you can absolutely leave the breadcrumbs off and it will still taste just as good.

In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.  Add the breadcrumbs and cook for 5-7 minutes or until toasted and slightly golden brown.  Stir the breadcrumbs every so often so they don’t burn.  Remove from the heat and set aside.

Pour the buffalo sauce over the cooked noodles and stir to coat.  I suggest doing this in the pot used to boil the noodles in case you need to turn on the heat and warm the noodles a bit.

Serve warm with the toasted breadcrumbs and some fresh chopped chives sprinkles on top.  Yum!

This is a delicious recipe!  You won’t know it’s vegan because the flavors are spot on.  I actually thought it was a little too spicy and had to keep adding breadcrumbs to my bowl to cut the heat!  Give it a try!

You could also add some blue cheese crumbles or shredded mozzarella cheese on top (vegan cheese, if necessary) to amplify the dish.

The recipe can be found here.

Happy Cooking!

In keeping with the day's topic, the event took place on board a boat in Bristol – reached by ferry from the train station. Fit for the Future members from organisations including Historic Royal Palaces, English Heritage, Peak District National Park, Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, Zero Carbon World and the National Trust came along to learn about practical actions that will encourage sustainable visitor travel.

good journey boat

The event was led by Nat Taplin of Good Journey, who has worked in sustainable transport and tourism for the past twenty years for organisations including Campaign for Better Transport, the Centre for Alternative Technology and New Forest National Park. The group discussed challenges, opportunities and ways to improve travel choices for visitors. Some key points from the day included:

3 questions for visitor attractions and venues

Do you put public transport information before car information on your website?

Do you offer a discount for car-free visitors?

Do you ‘own’ visitor travel as part of your carbon footprint?

3 way sustainable travel can help your organisation

  • Reducing traffic/parking problems – and the cost of making more car parking

  • Reaching out to the 25% of people in the UK who don’t own a car – increasing participation and income

  • Reducing your carbon footprint – around 2/3 of your CO2 emissions are likely to come from visitor cars

Challenges and Opportunities

Practitioners highlighted challenges including accessibility, car-culture and convenience. Whilst it was agreed that some of the challenges are part of a wider cultural context and are more difficult to address, the group also identified some key opportunities which included:

  • Incentives: Combining ticket offers so that transport is included in the ticket price, or offering discounts for those who travel car-free

  • Communication: Rewording website information to ensure it is positive and empowering. Prioritising public transport and walking/ cycling information on 'getting here' pages. Communicating the health, nature and air quality benefits

  • Electrical vehicles: both use on-site and providing infrastructure for free EV charging. Since all new cars in the UK will be effectively zero emission by 2040 under plans to tackle air pollution, this is a key opportunity

  • Leisure benefits: Making the journey part of the day out- promoting the leisure aspects such as lunch on train, games, spending time together without having to be behind the wheel and enjoying exercise and scenery if cycling or walking. Promote the journey as part of the day's activities

  • Joining the dots: Linking up with the local community public transport services already in place. Providing easy to access and comprehensive information on cycle/ walking routes and public transport options

  • Making it easy: Provide additional services for those going car free such as good cycle storage and luggage hold, route maps and even bike hire facilities

Case Study:Blenheim Palace

After joining Good Journey in 2018, Fit for the Future members Blenheim Palace offer a 30% discount with a bus or train ticket and have added a prominent link on their website to travel information on Good Journey.

The number of car-free visitors has increased by almost 300%, from 3048 in 2017 to 9312 already in 2018 (as at 31/8/18)

Facebook Makes FIDO Authentication Available to 1.7 Billion Users

Andrew Shikiar, Senior Director of Marketing

Facebook announced support for FIDO authentication Thursday, offering its 1.7 billion users worldwide an easy and user-friendly experience for strong authentication when logging into their Facebook accounts.

As detailed in a Facebook security note and accompanying blog post from Yubico, Facebook users can leverage a FIDO® Certified second-factor device to enable unphishable FIDO strong authentication when logging into their accounts. This significantly raises the security bar over authentication based on shared secrets stored on servers, like passwords and SMS one-time passcodes, and will protect users from account compromise – an issue that Facebook has disclosed impacts up to 600,000 users a day.

For Facebook users, FIDO authentication is as easy as adding a touch of a button to the login process. Facebook users can choose from an array of FIDO Certified second-factor devices, including those from FIDO Alliance Board members such as Feitian, NXP, OneSpan and Yubico. Users that already have a FIDO second-factor device, such as a Google Security Key, can use that same device now for Facebook authentication. This is one of the major benefits of the FIDO standards ecosystem – users can leverage a single device to authenticate across all service providers offering FIDO authentication.

With this announcement, Facebook joins many leading service providers, including Google, PayPal, NTT DOCOMO and more, that have turned to standards-based FIDO authentication to protect their users — a strong endorsement of FIDO’s privacy-aware and user-friendly standards for strong authentication. We applaud Facebook’s commitment to protecting their users through FIDO authentication and anticipate many added service providers taking similar steps in 2017.

Australia's Nufarm sells S.American assets for $800 mln to repay debt

Australia’s Nufarm will sell its South American crop protection and seed treatment assets to its biggest shareholder, Japan’s Sumitomo Chemical, for A$1.19 billion ($804.80 million) to help pay down debt amid a severe domestic drought.

Nufarm shares rose as much as 56% on Monday morning, their best-ever intraday percentage gain, to a more than one-year high of A$6.94. They were later up 28%.

Australian farming companies are struggling to boost cashflows as profits are hurt by severe dry weather that has threatened grain production across Australia’s east coast. Nufarm has also taken a hit from flooding in parts of the United States, where it operates several plants.

Story continues below
This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

Nufarm tapped the Japanese investor for money in August as well, selling it A$97.5 million worth of stock. The Melbourne-headquartered company said on Monday it will buy back these shares after the asset sale is completed.

The sale of assets will allow Nufarm to focus on high-margin crop protection markets in Europe and across North America and the company hopes that its exposure to Australia will prop up earnings after the industry recovers from two years of drought, Nufarm said in a statement on Monday.

“There are concerns that the drought has affected Nufarm’s local operations,” said Michael McCarthy, chief strategist at CMC Markets and Stockbroking.

“Being able to realize the value out of their South American business has alleviated a lot of the concerns that there might be balance sheet pressure from the drought on Nufarm,” he said.

Story continues below
This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

The drought led the herbicide maker to cut its annual earnings guidance in August, while bulk grain handler GrainCorp Ltd flagged its first annual loss in a decade.

Nufarm, which said the transaction includes assets in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Colombia, has net debt of A$1.25 billion as of July 31. This was down 9% from a year earlier after the company raised money in the first half of the year, Nufarm said in a separate earnings release on Monday.

For Sumitomo Chemical, which owned about 16% of Nufarm as of October last year, the deal will help triple its crop protection revenue in South America, surpassing revenue from the North American region, the Japanese firm said in a statement. The company expects to benefit from the expected growth in the South American crop protection market, particularly in Brazil.

Story continues below
This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

The two companies will also enter into a two-year supply and transitional services agreement as part of the deal, for Nufarm to provide procurement services and the continued supply of some products to the South American businesses.

Nufarm said its annual underlying net profit after tax fell about 10% to A$89.1 million for year ended July 31 and that tight supply conditions experienced in 2019 for some technical ingredients sourced from China were expected to continue to push up raw material costs in 2020.

Still, Nufarm said the cost reduction program it implemented a few years back will boost earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization by A$10 million to A$15 million in 2020, as will the resolution of supply issues that hurt availability of some products in Europe in the last fiscal year.

    Great products not so hot on communication

    I love Flashwear trainers we buy them all the time. But on this occasion I bought 2 pairs, on one the design wasn’t right and the others were too small. I hadn’t spotted any returns label and had thrown both plastic packaging out. Have since tried to get into contact - surprisingly difficult. The online chat unavailable to answer twice, can’t get a reply on email. I’ll call them after Christmas but this is always the impression the company gives. Fantastic product but the after care really needs work if you are to make your customers feel more valued especially loyal ones such as myself.

for the learning of mathematics

Konstantinos Tatsis ,  Rijkje Dekker - Vol. 30 Num. 2 (2010)
 Combining approaches for the analysis of collaborative mathematics learning

An episode of two students working collaboratively on a mathematical problem is analysed combining two approaches, namely the process model for mathematical level raising and role theory. The process model stresses the importance of key and regulating activities, while role theory deals with the inter- and intrapersonal concerns of the participants. Our results show a connection between these activities and particular participants' roles: depending on their own definition of the ongoing situation the students are engaged in more or less key and regulating activities, which in turn affect their mathematical level raising.

Commentary: Bearing the Tax Burden of the Biden Administration

Joe Biden

As congressional Democrats push a $3.5 trillion social spending package, everyone is wondering: “How are we going to pay for that?” To President Joe Biden, the answer is simple: raise taxes.

Included in Biden’s proposed tax plans — erroneously named the American Families Plan — are hikes in personal income tax and capital gains tax rates. The plan would raise the top marginal income tax rate from 37 percent to 39.6 percent and reclassify long-term capital gains and qualified dividends as ordinary income for those with taxable income above $1 million, resulting in a top marginal tax rate of 43.4 percent, according to the Tax Foundation.

Despite the frustration (or excitement) that Americans have towards Biden’s income and wealth tax proposals in the midst of an economic recovery, Americans should be paying closer attention to his other proposals, the American Jobs Plan and the Made in America Tax Plan.

Apple Engaged in ‘Anticompetitive Conduct,’ Court Rules in Antitrust Lawsuit

A judge ruled Friday that Apple engaged in anticompetitive conduct in its App Store, concluding a lawsuit filed by game developers alleging the tech giant was an illegal monopolist.

Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers ruled Friday that Apple’s policy of preventing app developers from linking to third-party payment systems within their apps was anticompetitive, forcing the iPhone maker to change its app store guidelines. However, Rogers ruled in favor of Apple on several other allegations, finding the tech giant did not illegally maintain a monopoly.

“While the Court finds that Apple enjoys considerable market share of over 55% and extraordinarily high profit margins, these factors alone do not show antitrust conduct,” Rogers wrote. “Success is not illegal.”

The Global Chip Shortage Will Have a Major Impact on Consumers

Computer mother board

The global chip shortage is beginning to impact consumers, driving up prices of smartphones, vehicles and personal electronics as manufacturers struggle to keep up with rising demand.

“We’re seeing 5% to 10% price increases right now,” Glen O’Donnell, vice president and research director at Forrester, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “They will increase more as this issue drags on.”

Semiconductors, the internal components essential to the functioning of almost every electronic device, have been in short supply since early 2020 due to high consumer demand of mobile electronics cloud services, and other products that require computer chips, according to O’Donnell. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the problem by stalling semiconductor production and disrupting supply chains, with demand for consumer electronics only skyrocketing due to more people working from home.

Inflation Measure Surges Again, Hits New Three-Decade High

People on an escalator in an indoor shopping mall

An index measuring inflation surged at an annual rate of 4.2% last month, reaching its highest level since 1991, according to the Department of Commerce.

The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index, which measures prices, increased 4.2% in the 12-month period between August 2020 and July 2021, according to a Department of Commerce report published Friday. Excluding volatile food and energy prices, the index spiked 3.6%, the report showed.

The last time consumer prices increased this much in one year was more than three decades ago in January 1991, CNBC reported. The figure reported Friday is in line with what economists expected.

36 States Sue Google over Alleged Anticompetitive Practices in Play Store

Google Play Store on Android

State attorneys general of 36 states and the District of Columbia filed an antitrust lawsuit against Google on Wednesday alleging the company engaged in anticompetitive practices in its Play Store for Android.

The complaint argues Google holds and unlawfully maintains a monopoly in the market of “Android app distribution,” using anticompetitive tactics such as blocking competitors from accessing the Play Store, discouraging the creation of competing app stores, and acquiring smaller app developers. The complaint also alleges Google charges app developers up to a 30% commission when customers purchase their products through the Google Play Store.

“Google has taken steps to close the ecosystem from competition and insert itself as the middleman between app developers and consumers,” the plaintiffs argue.

Lumber Futures Drop After Sustained Rise, Signaling Potential Price Drop for Consumers

Lumber futures plunged further this week, seeing a price drop that hit 20% in a sign that the lumber market may finally reverse course from its dizzying price spike that occurred over the last few months.

The reversal was likely driven in part by a drop in homebuilding, which was down nearly 10% last month; general home repair also saw a similar decline.

Lumber manufacturers over the past several months have also been producing record levels of supply in response to the price surge.

New Federal Rule: No More Surprise Hospital Bills and More Options for Consumers

Hospitals have begun publishing their actual costs of services, including discounted cash and negotiated rates as a result of a rule change implemented by former President Donald Trump. The rule was challenged by the American Hospital Association and others, who lost in federal district court.

An appeal to the court ruling has not yet been filed. While the association says it is calling on the new administration to adjust the rule, hospitals in the meantime must publish prices for the majority of the services and medications they provide.

FHN Today: Canadiens not matching Carolina offer sheet?

Canadiens carolina offer sheet

According to NHL insider Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, the Montreal Canadiens are considering not matching the $6.1 million offer sheet tendered to 21-year-old Jesperi Kotkaniemi by the Carolina Hurricanes this weekend.

Friedman said on his 31 Thoughts: The Podcast that Montreal could just take the draft picks from Carolina and save the money.

If the Canadiens don’t match, it will receive a first and a third-round draft pick in 2022 from Carolina.

If they do match the offer, well, they’ll be paying Kotkaniemi $6.1 million this coming season and perhaps the following one as well.

By not matching, the Canadiens could also get the NHL trade market rolling once again.

Montreal has until Saturday to make its decision.

“Famous last words,” Friedman said on his popular podcast. “It could change. It might just be a visceral reaction. They do have a week.”

Offer sheets from one team being offered to a another’s restricted free agent is not new — but many general managers have shied away from making them over the years not wanting to ruffle feathers among friends.

Carolina tossed that thinking out the window.

Montreal signed Carolina’s Sebastian Aho to an offer sheet two years ago — the Hurricanes matched but it was costly — and it’s obvious they  have not let that one go.

While Carolina seems high on Kotkoniemi, who was the third-overall pick in 2018 and has 62 points in 171 games with the Canadiens, the Canes made sure Montreal got the message they’re not over it.

There was some serious trolling going on.

For instance, the contract includes a $20 signing bonus (yeah, twenty bucks). Aho wears No. 20.

Carolina also did a cut-and-paste in the release announcing the signing, one mirroring what Montreal sent out when it signed Aho.

The Hurricanes also sent out their signing announcement tweet in French.

Regardless, Kotkoniemi is about to get paid.

At $6.1 million this season, he’ll rank fourth among Carolina forwards ahead of Vincent Trocheck who goes into the final year of the six-year deal he signed with the Panthers in 2016.

In case you missed it, we looked at what Sasha Barkov’s new contract may look like.

As it turned out, Flyzy not only got the well-deserved recognition by StartUp India (DPIIT) but also received an overwhelmingly positive response from the users. As Flyzy gained more popularity, its creators quickly realised that with the right use of technology, this app can be transformed into a platform which could not only work wonders for the passengers in the ongoing pandemic situation but also in general, especially for the people flying for the first time, or those who aren’t very well-versed with the use of modern technology available for various customer-friendly services.
Well, guess what, Flyzy, right now, is more than just an app that brings several other services, comforts, and benefits to your fingertips, apart from making your air travel simply better.
Why should everyone who travels use Flyzy?
It’s simple; if you wish to make your journeys free of hassles and full of comforts, use Flyzy. The AI-enabled Flyzy app comes packed with several skip-the-queue benefits and awesome features in which passengers can pre-book their favourite meals, suitable lounge types as per their comforts, and even cabs, all at heavy discounts, while avoiding various hassles that otherwise tend to accompany these services. Flyzy app also provides passengers with real-time notifications, weather updates, universal web check-in portal, check-in baggage status, map of the airport, and more, which only make travelling easier and hassle-free.
The Flyzy vision
The team at Flyzy has a firm belief that this platform has a great potential to benefit everyone involved in the travel industry, be it the passengers or the service providers. The app provides end-to-end services at very low infrastructural costs and can therefore make the whole process of journeying from one place to another automated, faster, easier, and more effortless.

Besides, if you’re wondering whether Flyzy can be as great a travel manager for people travelling by rail and road as it is for those who travel by air, then you’re thinking what its creators had been. They, too, didn’t want Flyzy to be limited to air travel as the majority of people travel by rail and road. So, the good news is, Flyzy will soon be available for two more
Why was it named Flyzy?
Interesting question. But as many of you might have guessed it already, Flyzy derived its name from its initial goal; “to make flying easier and better for passengers travelling by air”. It’s just that now, Flyzy is also working towards creating something which is much bigger than making flying easier for you. It’s no mean task, but we’re not relenting until we make it happen. Happy travelling, everyone!
Humans at Flyzy
We are not going to fly a spaceship anytime soon, but we are definitely working with equivalent passion so that Flyzy keeps flying easy.

Empty and Lost

by Cayetano Ferrer

Ever envision a city street without instructions, directions, or advertisements? In the visual art project “Empty and Lost,” student Cayetano Ferrer creates new visual experiences by making digital prints of scenes taken from busy metropolitan environments with all the text taken out of them. The change is subtle, yet altering.

By transforming signage into shapes and colors, the chaotic world of Chicago’s Loop becomes a little easier on the eye. We are left with the feeling of emptiness, which recalls an experience of being lost in an unfamiliar environment. Even when the environment is actually quite familiar. It is an eerily comfortable position to be in, and will lead you to question your own place in public space.

Cayetano’s prints and signs can be viewed in person as part of a group exhibit called “City In Transit” at the 1926 gallery space. The opening reception is on May 4th from 8 to 10pm, and is curated by SAIC’s Arts Administration class, led by Josh Decter. It runs from April 30th through May 16th. Other artists whose work will be showcased include Michael Ryan, Laura Grey, Erin Moore, Jim Elniski, and Justin Goh.

THE COUNTY AFFAIR – Off The Grid (Sonnet)

Off The GridBack in the 70s, Nottingham teenage best friends Tony Regan and Kevin Brennan formed themselves a country band. Then in their 20s, after going to different universities, they found themselves in the States and blagged themselves a residency at a bar in Houston, then began touring cross the country. But with that old parental nag ‘isn’t it time you got a proper job’ finding its way into their conscious, they returned home take up graduate careers, Tony going into advertising and Kevin ending up as Worldwide CEO for Quorn.

But while you can take the man out of the music, you can’t take the music out of the man. And so, some thirty years on from the youthful Irish club gigs, Kevin decided to step down and pick up where  he left off, reuniting his musical partnership with Tony under the guiding hand of veteran producer Tom Nichols, the pair combing their song writing talents to assemble this debut album of Americana, folk and blues.

Off The Grid  kicks off with ‘Man Of Note’, a finger snapping bluesy gospel groove with an alcohol soaked barroom piano, before roping in former Lonestar lead singer Richie McDonald to duet on the uptempo melody and hooks of ‘Nashville Storm Warning’ (“She leaves a wake like a hurricane”) and then slipping into the guitar chiming notes of the cascading lost love reminiscences of the death ballad ‘Beach’.

Kick beat drums drive along the rolling title track with its gutsy electric guitars, backing vocals and a dutiful country line about a pick-up truck and being in hoc to ex-wives and, keeping the tempo and the percussive clicks on the move for homelessness themed ‘Every Ghost’.

Elsewhere things get funkier back into the blues on ‘Lying Next To Me’ which plays a typical double meaning country card, moody and broodingly bruised in ‘Bourbon Breakfast’ about drowning your demons in the darker demons of alcohol’ and turning up the Southern twang, piano and steel for ‘Playing Poker’, a cautionary tale about not borrowing money from a man with hat even if you think you’ve got a winning hand.

Spinning a story about a fatal car crash involving the parish priest and a headmistress, bags in the trunk, and wagging tongues, the title track  (complete with spoken last verse) is train time affair that, naturally namechecks Johnny Cash.

With pedal steel waves ‘Baby’ is a chiming upbeat love song, but, for me, the album standouts start with accordion accompanied ‘The Seaview Inn, a walking beat catchily melodic snapshot of the sort of bars (“Thirty miles north of nowhere/Sells fuel, whiskey and gin/Five miles south of some ocean/You’ll find the Seaview Inn”) they likely played in small town America where the punters spin their tall tale fishing yarns. Staying in the bars, a Southern country shaded ‘The Waitress’ tells of the girl serving the drinks falling for the “shaggy guitar player”  in a  pick-up band, a brief moment in the local music star spotlight , the wider success that never came and the despair, drink and dope that eventually tears them apart. And, finally, album closer ‘Go Tell Your Father’, the jogalong arrangement belying the bittersweet early 1900s narrative of the brother left behind to help on his father’s farm (“Pa can’t go on alone/Early milking kills him bit by bit, need to keep a young son who’s fit”) when the oldest son took off to seek fame and fortune, losing touch over the years with “just a Christmas card at most”.

It’s been a long and winding road to come full circle, but, while they may not be pushing any envelopes, they’re a welcome addition to the bourgeoning homegrown Americana scene.

Very simple. In reverse the gearbox is so very slightly displaced, as the drive torque is in the opposite rotation.. It was a matter of microns and not millimetres!
