Investigators figure Egged officials knew driver Biton was a risk before he got six passengers killed.
Four senior executives at the Egged bus company have been questioned under caution in recent days on suspicion of negligent homicide in the case of the accident two weeks ago on Route 1, in which six people were killed.
The four are suspected of being aware that the driver, Haim Biton, had been involved in other accidents and in negligent driving, but let him keep driving and did not disciplinary action. They are also suspected of knowing of passenger complaints about Biton’s conduct, and doing nothing about them.
The executives in question are the safety officer for Jerusalem, the human resources manager for Jerusalem, the regional manager for Jerusalem and the manager of the Egged insurance office. Additional Egged executives are expected to be questioned in the coming days.
Two weeks ago, Biton was arrested for negligent homicide after he became distracted while driving and crashed the No. 402 bus into a truck that had stopped on the side of the road, police said, basing themselves on the initial investigation of the accident. At a Traffic Court hearing in Jerusalem, police representative Moshe Cohen said Biton is also suspected of disruption of legal proceedings because after the collision, he removed the recording disk from the bus’ tachograph (“black box”), the device that documents the vehicle’s speed and distance and the driver’s activity.
Biton had been involved in a similar accident in 2013, the court learned. Then too, he had been driving a No. 402 bus, and crashed into a truck parked on the shoulder of the road, just a few kilometers from the site of the accident two weeks ago. Eighteen people suffered mild injuries in the earlier crash.
In addition to the six people killed in the accident two weeks ago, 12 other passengers were injured.
one seriously. The deceased are Yaakov Cheshin, 27; Yisrael Weinberg, 26; Aharon Mordechai Cohen, 18; Leah Malamud, 50 and Chana Pesha Frenkel, 23, all of Jerusalem, and Levi Yitzhak Amdadi, 17, of Yavniel.

With the recent accomplishments of prominent African Americans in many arenas of life, February is an ideal month to reflect on the history of blacks in America.
A post like this might stir up deep-seated animosities among those who (wrongly) think that ethnicity should be a non-issue. However, the strength of our nation is not color-blindness, but love of country, diversity, and equal opportunity regardless of one's ethnicity.
Some countries, like France, presume to "transcend" race by not regarding the ethnicity of persons. In America, we wrestle with our shortcomings and then rise to a better social posture.
Black history is as germane to American history as is the expansion of the nation from east to west. It is also a highly inspirational and motivational inquiry. As a teaser, Google the names, Percy Julian or Granville T. Woods.
When viewing history through the lens of God's grace, I see "His-Story" unfolded in the lives of people.

Legal recreational marijuana in Washington may be associated with an increase in traffic accidents and claims in the state, according to a new report by the Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.). The report states that collision claim frequency is 9.7 percent higher in Washington than in nearby states without legal recreational marijuana.
Studies about the impact of marijuana use and auto crashes are still in the early stages, but evidence is suggesting that more collisions occur where recreational marijuana is legal. Colorado’s claim frequency is 12.5 percent higher than neighboring states without legalized marijuana, for example. Oregon, however, showed an increase of only 1 percent.
In addition to the loss of life and property, increased collisions may impact auto insurance rates. While individual insurance companies weigh rating factors differently, loss costs – payments made to treat injuries, repair damaged vehicles and property and defend drivers in legal actions – are typically reflected in premiums paid by consumers.
Voters in Colorado and Washington legalized recreational marijuana sales and use in 2012; retail sales began in the two states in 2014. Sales in Oregon began in 2015.
The best protection for drivers and passengers is an alert, aware, responsible driver. Having the right insurance is also important.
The law requires every driver to carry auto liability insurance, which helps pay for injuries or property damage you might cause to others in an accident. But there are other essential coverages to protect yourself and the passengers in your vehicle that no responsible driver should overlook.
Collision coverage: This policy provides insurance coverage to repair or replace your own vehicle (regardless of fault) if it is damaged in a collision with another vehicle or an object (such as a tree or power pole).
Comprehensive: This policy provides coverage to repair or replace your own vehicle (regardless of fault) if it is stolen or damaged in a non-collision event (such as a fire or a windstorm), or if the vehicle collides with a deer or other animal.
Uninsured Motorist (UM)/Underinsured Motorist (UIM) coverage: This policy is designed to repair damage or pay for injuries that result from a crash caused by another at-fault driver if his/her liability insurance limits are too low to fully reimburse your damages or injuries (UIM), or if the at-fault driver has no liability insurance in force at all (UM).
Personal Injury Protection: This policy pays medical expenses for you and your passengers injured in an auto crash (up to policy limits), regardless of who is at fault in the accident, and can also pay for lost wages and other costs related to the injuries.
For more information about insurance, contact NW Insurance Council at (800) 664-4942.

Wheeeeee.. our first day of summer vacation and I got to sleep in.
I'm sharing today my Spring Mixables album from Clear Scraps.
It's a mix of Acrylic and Chipboard with pages designed with Spring in mind.
Here's my cover. I started off by stamping flourishes in Cactus and Jet Black Stazon Ink in the front side. I then added my photo, used some alcohol ink to add some color to the acrylic, and loaded up on flowers and viva decor pearls.
Turn the page. You can see I covered up my photo with a bit of Hambly, and cut out this cute design from pattern paper. I added some flowers, bling, and was ready to move on.
Now we have our chipboard page. I left the center flower at the top open so you could see through to the next page. On the bottom, I adhered my photo to backside of the chipboard, added flowers and some bling, inked the edges, and viola a pretty page complete.
This acrylic page is in the shape of a flower stalk, well, it reminds me of that. I outlined the edge in viva decor pearls on the front. On the back I added alcohol ink in lettuce, then stamped on the front with stazon. I adhered my photo to pattern paper, stamped on the pattern paper side, then adhered that to the acrylic page.
It helps to plan ahead a little while designing your album, especially working with acrylic. The butterflies and ribbon are helping hide the Beacons 3-in-1 glue I used on the front side.
Another chipboard page, it's a very sturdy chipboard, I love the mixable albums!
The last page. I had fun with this oversized doily by tapping a mix of red and orange alcohol inks on here. I also outlined this page with my viva decor pen, and alcohol inked the backside in different spots.
If you ever work with Clear Scraps products, link it up to their Facebook Wall! I love seeing what others create with these wonderful products! Also, tune in to Clear Scraps Blog to see inspirational work every day of the week!

Rather than comfort ourselves with nostalgia for monarchy, empire, church, and the ‘special relationship’, it’s time to embrace confusion - and optimism? - about what ‘England’ could mean in the modern world.
England has been anxious for some time.
Economically, England has done well for itself in the last two decades. But London’s disproportionate wealth relative to the rest of England, combined with the fact that London has effectively become an international, as opposed to an English, city, make many in the country feel that even if they do benefit from this wealth creation, they do not relate to it.
Other conditions exacerbate the apathy. The City of London (the concentration of most financial actors in England) wields immense power. A shockingly small number of people control most private media. The gap between England’s rich south and the rest has been widening. Even legacy features of the political system – for example that English matters are decided upon by English and non-English members of parliament (unlike in Scotland, where MSPs decide on many key matters) – have become quite antagonistic for some.
Many retreated to memories of older, gentler times – irrespective of whether those memories are real or flights to fancy. The nostalgia for these times is evinced by a tsunami of period movies and TV series, where England is primarily a beautiful countryside, dotted with mansions ruled by lords and ladies, and the world is a distant ‘other’ whose main role in the storylines is to make England rich. Here England is serene, predictable, free from threats, and from immigrants, derivatives traders, or professional politicians parroting politically correct phrases.
England’s anxiousness is merited. All of the key pillars upon which England stood over the past five centuries, have been facing slow erosion.
The ‘Empire’ is gone. And the notion that England could wield significant influence in world affairs through its “special relationship” with America is now being acutely tested – especially as America itself is facing several daunting challenges. The problem is compounded because, since Tony Blair left office over a decade ago, no British Prime Minister has defined what that ‘special relationship’ actually means in today’s world. This leaves England with aspirations for influence and clout (normal for a country that, until a century ago, ruled almost half the planet) but limited means.
The monarchy is another reason behind England’s anxiousness. Queen Elizabeth II has perfectly personified the unique role that the monarch plays in English socio-politics. But Prince Charles has adopted a view of the role of the heir to the throne that many in the political class do not share. Some say that Prince William and Princess Kate are the faces of a new monarchical model. Perhaps. But, so far, that model has not exhibited that special command over the imagination that successful modern monarchs must master. All of this does not pose any risk to the monarchy. But it raises questions about the ability of that institution, in the coming few years, to calm an anxious England.
For the Anglican Church, another pillar of England and Englishness, the situation is more difficult. The Church is, arguably, the most progressive in Christendom. Some of the Church’s leaders have forged new understandings of theology that correspond to the values of today’s ultra-liberal Britain and to what is now considered scientific certainties. But this theological flexibility has antagonised many social groups as well as lessened the Church’s influence in the Anglican world. The Church of England might have found the way to relevance in a future that will become even more secular. But relevance is vastly different from being a pillar of the society’s view of itself.
And then there is Brexit. England was the real decider of the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union. And given that it is the heart and engine of the Kingdom, England realises that it bears the responsibility of forging, for the whole Kingdom, a credible path to the future. Since the 2016 referendum, many scenarios of doom and gloom, as well as delusions of imperial grandeur, have appeared in England. Some elements of these scenarios entail value – for example, creative ideas that could be helpful in trade agreements. But a grounded narrative about England – and Britain’s – place in the world remains missing.
Brexit has revealed an acute division within the country, between, on one side, the cosmopolitan young who believe in the European identity, are comfortable in mixed cultural settings, and who want the state to provide them with European-style economic protections, and on the other, the older generations who lament, what they see as, the loss of serene, homogeneous England. It does not help that many in that older generation are now retiring with the benefits of decades of favourable economic conditions (notably manifested in the market prices of their real estate and equity portfolio assets), while most of the young struggle to find stable jobs, let alone save for any serious asset-purchases. Generational differences are hardly new. But the feeling of many young English (and British) that, by voting to leave the EU, the older generation has imposed on them major economic challenges, does not bode well for social harmony.
Anxiousness has given rise to activism. We are seeing a major surge in interest in politics, by old and young, and across different social classes.
This could lead to changes in England’s political economy. There could be a weakening of the City’s political power, more diversification of media ownership, and a serious discussion of the impact of immigration on England, without political correctness or stoking fears.
But, beyond all of that, England needs a new mental model. The previous two in living memory – Churchill’s view of England’s iron-will that leads it to victory and Thatcher’s view of a rising mercantile England that restores elements of the old imperial grandeur – have now long retired to history. The last model, advanced by Tony Blair in the late 1990s, had an effective marketing campaign, the energy of a highly talented politician, and the momentum of buoyant international economic conditions. But in the end, it proved confusing for many voters – perhaps because the project itself was confused between the opposing visions of its two architects: Blair and Gordon Brown.
One prominent English journalist has recently told me that the problem in today’s English politics is that neither the Conservatives nor Labour really wants to rule. Deep down both think they need time, in the shadow, to reflect.
This might mean few years of confusion. Perhaps Britain and England will miss few opportunities. Perhaps the cost of Brexit will climb higher. But these might prove an acceptable price to pay for a viable new project for this country. England needs to think – not merely about trade agreements, the relationships with the US and Europe, immigration, but crucially about the meaning and future of Englishness, which is salient for the meaning and future of Britain.
Many observers, including in England, envisage the country declining slowly in the coming years. Several social groups will suffer, no doubt. But an overall and prolonged decline is highly unlikely. England has three advantages that are crucial in today’s global economy.
First, it has some of the world’s most advanced and creative centres of knowledge in industries that will shape the future: artificial intelligence, particle physics, and bio-engineering. Also, for decades, it has been the world’s second most successful centre (after the US) of producing entertainment formats. (England is, arguably, maximising the leverage of ‘owning’ the world’s lingua franca.) These industries will continue to be major engines of growth and wealth creation for years to come. And if England manages to secure for its financial services industry operating conditions in Europe that are quite similar to those of the past few decades, then the impact of Brexit will be significantly curtailed.
Second, Britain is one of the few places in the world where all leading global powers (the US, China, and Russia) and some of the key rising ones (for example, India) want to invest in research and development, have access, and build trading hubs. Brexit will lessen that. But trends in 2017 do not indicate dramatic changes.
And third, relative to many countries that are considered its peers, England’s socio-politics are attractive. Demographics are not overly skewed towards the old, checks on executive power and respect for the rule of law are almost unrivalled, competitiveness is quite high, corruption is very low, work ethic is excellent, and despite all of the talk about immigration, England has been much more successful than any European country in integrating waves after waves of immigrants.
Politics is the main problem. Politics should provide the thread that connects all of these advantages together. Politics should engage the voters in honest and serious discussions about their concerns, from inequality to immigration. Politics should forge a path for the country’s old institutions to evolve and continue being pillars of support for the society. Politics should reflect on the experience of England and Britain in the last three decades and what they mean for the future. But politics has not been doing much of that.
England has reasons to be anxious. Fog surrounds the ship, the captains are not the sea masters of old, and the existing charts do not cover the waters England is sailing towards. But the ship is both: solid and agile. And for the past five hundred years, anyone who bet on the ship being lost in sea, was proven wrong.

Since Canon does not seem to want to support 64 bit versions of Windows, many Canon/Windows users are having to hit the net for a codec solution. I being one of them, found this nice free program @ http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm. The FastStone Image Viewer supports most new RAW formats.
What I was really looking for was a way to view thumbnails in Windows Explorer, which you can find here: http://www.ardfry.com/cr2-codec/. It’s $30 for CR2 support, which is pricey since it’s only CR2 support. DNG and NEF are also $30 each. If you can not live without thumbnails in Windows Explorer, it seems to work fine. I downloaded the trial version and it worked as stated. But for the price, FastStone Image Viewer can’t be beat.

Don't pay any attention if you hear White Sox players complain they can't catch a break.
The Sox didn't have to face Randy Johnson or Curt Schilling in Arizona.
They missed Dodgers ace Kevin Brown by a day and lucked out by not having to face San Francisco's best starter, Jason Schmidt.
Now they will avoid the Cubs' twin aces, Mark Prior and Kerry Wood.
The Cubs are slated to start Shawn Estes, Matt Clement and Carlos Zambrano this weekend at Wrigley Field.
Sox manager Jerry Manuel is not exactly upset about the arrangement.
"[Prior and Wood] are two of the elite pitchers in the National League," he said. "We saw Prior in the spring, and he was very impressive. Kerry Wood has that electric stuff and we are [mostly] right-handed.
"But that's not to take anything away from Clement or Zambrano. They are outstanding pitchers."
Manuel also is playing it straight. Without an off day to juggle his rotation, he will send Jon Garland, Mark Buehrle and Bartolo Colon to the mound this weekend.
"The series hasn't lost its luster, but it's not to the point where you jeopardize the rest of the season for it," he said.
Manuel played it differently in 1999, setting his rotation for the first series about five months before the first pitch.
He started Mike Sirotka, Jim Parque and Jaime Navarro. The Sox swept the three games at Wrigley.
"I [wanted] to throw the best we had," Manuel said. "I didn't realize the significance of the series until I lived here in the winter. Everywhere you went, it was more about the series than the season."

I grew up in the suburbs of Cleveland. I wouldn't eat mushrooms for a long time after my brother told me, (while eating mushroom soup), that mushrooms were a fungus...just like that white stuff you find on sticks outside. Ewwww.
I had never heard of morels until moving to Illinois when in the spring everyone has a story of how many hours they spent hunting for mushrooms and how many pounds they found.
Two years ago I ate my first morel. It was sauteed in butter and I immediately fell in love. I love mushrooms!
So, this year I made it my goal to hunt for my own. I went out on Saturday with a seasoned hunter and after two hours and 4 stops we didn't find any.
Sunday morning (happy mother's day) I slipped out of the house at 7:30 in the morning and walked down into the woods beside my house. I was determined. When my eye spotted this group it sunk in excitement. There were 2 more just beside them.
I was taught to look under or around dying elm trees. But this huge morel was just laying in some thick weeds and ground cover. I found several more in the same area.
I soaked them for a few hours in salt water and then set them out to dry for a while. Here is the lot of them!
I made spaghetti for dinner and sauteed half of them. M, P, and I loved them. S is much like his father in that he will NOT eat a mushroom. Oh well, more for the girls!
Um...they're pretty! ;-) I love the taste of mushrooms, but not the texture so they have to be TINY little pieces before I'll eat them.
Yum! I had a mushroom aversion during my early pregnancy and I am happy to report that I am once again drooling over mushrooms. Congrats on your find.
Wow! These are amazing. I have heard lots of Morel stories, but I have never had them myself, though I am a mushroom eater. But - I have heard - they are supposed to grow back every year if you cut them off instead of pulling them up.
You certainly can supply wild mushrooms. Nice Find!

Controls all livestock and most predators - Eight or ten strands need not be electrified. For electric fence, two or more strands are effective for cattle and horses, five strands are normally used for goats, sheep, predators, etc., and one electric wire can be used to reinforce existing fences. These electric or non electric high tensile smooth wire fences can be the most versatile and secure farm and ranch fences.
Lowers costs for permanent horse fence - Three to five strands of electric high tensile smooth wire are used for lowest cost and four or more strands of Supercote plastic coated wire are used for safe horse fence with or without electric. Wider white Supercote wire horse fence is more visible and less likely to injure horses than uncoated wire but is more permanent and secure than tape horse fence.
Reduces costs and installation time to a minimum - These semi-permanent and lighter weight electric fences are much lower cost than vinyl or wood board fence and very much easier to install. Super Rope and Horse Tape make safe fence for horses compared to uncoated wire, barbed wire, etc. Fiberglass posts increase visibility and make fence installation easy.
Makes temporary horse paddocks easy to set up - The complete kit fits into a zippered bag that is compact and convenient to pack. It is available with a battery powered fence charger that uses only two D cells or without a fence energizer if you prefer to use your own charger or another model MAXIM fence charger.
Protects gardens, and other crops from wildlife damage - Six strands of electric high tensile wire are used to control wild deer and fewer wires are used for other wildlife. Portable FAST FENCE strand and tape are very easy and quick to install and can control most kinds of wildlife. Portable MAXIM solar and battery powered fence chargers or energizers are available. See links below.
Controls sheep, goats, pigs, poultry, dogs, and wildlife - FAST FENCE portable electrified netting is available in standard mesh net or fine mesh net, various heights, and a few colors and installs easily. Lower cost "packages" are available including electric fence energizers or chargers and some accessories. Also visit www.electricnets.com for sheep fence, poultry fence, dog pens, etc.
Installs easily for temporary livestock & wildlife control - FAST FENCE Hot Tape and Hot Strand are used with fiberglass or tread-in posts to make temporary, portable, and semi-permanent electric fences for all kinds of livestock and wildlife control but especially for portable beef or dairy cattle and horse fence. Portable MAXIM electric fence energizers, chargers, or controllers are also available.
Lasts longer, stays tighter, and looks better - than conventional woven wire products. Class 3 galvanized high tensile wire for cattle, sheep, horses, deer, game, and exotic animals. Heavily galvanized barbed fence staples hold better and last longer in treated pine posts. These fences can be reinforced with electric high tensile smooth wire offset on brackets or stand-offs to deter horses and cattle from rubbing or pushing on fences.
Electric fence produces a startling but harmless shock if it is installed and maintained correctly. However, animals need to be trained to respect it before they are left unattended.

1. It's time to talk about Git and the importance of source control!
3. You've uploaded a broken ﬁle, you don't have a working copy. What do you do?
4. Git to the rescue!
5. Revert the ﬁle, upload it again, and life is great!
6. Wow! How does Git work?
7. Sounds great, but how do we use Git?
9. But I promise, using git on the command line is really easy!
11. Cloning an existing repository is just as easy: $ git clone <repo url> This pulls down the entire git history for a given project and lets you manipulate it as if you had created it.
12. Adding ﬁles to your repository: $ git add * This will add ALL ﬁles in the current directory to your repository.
13. Committing a set of changes: $ git commit -m "My commit message" This will save all staged changes to a reference point you can always restore.
14. Checking a repository's status $ git status This reports which ﬁles have been modiﬁed, added, removed, etc.
15. Un-staging some edited ﬁles: $ git reset This returns all staged ﬁles back to being unstaged. It does NOT undo any edits to those ﬁles by default.
16. Temporarily store staged edits: $ git stash Think of this as a way of saying, "I'm not ready to do anything with these edits, but I don't want to erase them."
18. Merge a branch back into master: $ git checkout master $ git merge mybranch First we switch back to the master branch, then we merge in all changes from mybranch.
19. Pushing Edits to a remote server: $ git push Yep, that's really all there is to it!

I realised there and then that I had made a big mistake and should have tagged an additional day on my business trip to Asia so as to visit this city of ancient Japanese culture and buddhist temples. It's often difficult juggling work commitments with sight seeing. I spend hours creating illustrations of beautiful Japanese pagodas, castles and shrines yet have little time to enjoy them at the end of a working day. This is the one thing that I am determined to change so next time, I'm coming to see you Kyoto!

For their first collaboration ever, visual artist Margriet Craens and designer Lucas Maassen have produced a series of unusual photographs, as part of the exhibition ‘The Vincent Affair’ currently on display at the Huis Nune Ville in Nuenen, the Netherlands. Inviting visitors to ‘‘see the world from a different perspective, like Vincent [van Gogh] did’’, the exhibition includes works from eight Dutch artists and designers, each in its own way exploring the idiosyncrasies of how van Gogh used to work and what it means to attempt to see the world differently. The ‘Chair Affair’ project, Craens and Maassen’s contribution to the exhibition, is a photographic series depicting pairs of chairs placed in ways that remind sexual positions and other intimate scenarios. A couple also in life, Craens and Maassen have described their project as sketchy and autobiographical, and the result of a confrontation between their two very different practices (design and art).

When we talk about a secured loan, we are essentially referring to a type of loan secured against an asset (it can be your home, car, jewellery or anything that is valuable). This type of loan is especially instrumental for individuals with a poor credit score and who cannot get a loan from high street banks without collateral.
Who qualifies for a secured loan?
Basically, any person who is a citizen of the UK, has an asset that they can pledge as collateral, resides within the UK, earns a regular income and is an adult of sound mind qualifies to apply for a secured loan. In fact, the aforementioned are the basic requirements.
What is the maximum amount of money I can borrow under a secured loan?
The maximum amount you can borrow under a secured loan is dependent on the value of your collateral, your income and your ability to repay the loan on a monthly basis. In other words, even if you’ve put your home as collateral and therefore qualify to go for a loan of a million pounds, the lender might deny you if your income is not sufficient to meet monthly payments.
When should you consider going for a secured loan?
The best time to go for a secured loan is when you are grappling with credit problems and therefore cannot avail an unsecured loan. Secondly, secured loans are better if you are seeking to borrow a considerable amount of money for a prolonged period of time. With collateral, most lenders feel that the risks on their side are mitigated and therefore would not hesitate to approve your application.
Are there penalties for repaying a secured loan early?
In most cases, lenders encourage borrowers to repay their loans early. However, not all encourage this and there are a few lenders that might actually penalise you for clearing the loan earlier than agreed. It is therefore important to check with your lender in advance and get a clear picture as to whether early repayments attract a penalty.
Actually, the loan repayment period is informed by the amount of money you’ve borrowed, how long you’ve borrowed it for and the interest rate attached to the loan. The higher the amount of money borrowed, the longer it will take for you to repay the loan and vice versa.
Are interest rates for secured loans as high as for unsecured loans?
No. The reason why unsecured loans have high interest rates is because of the uncertainty and high risks on the side of the lender should the loan be defaulted. In fact, the main reason why lenders charge high interest rates for unsecured loans is because there is no fall back asset should things go awry. The same cannot be said of secured loans where the lender can auction the security and use the proceeds to recoup their money. As such, secured loans tend to have relatively low interest rates as compared to unsecured loans.
Basically, you can use the loan for anything you want. This could be to start a business, to inject more cash into an existing business, to buy furniture, to buy a new car, debt consolidation just to mention but a few. It is however important that you use the amount advanced wisely.
What happens in the unlikely event that I can’t repay the loan?
If you are facing financial problems, it is always important to approach your lender and work out a new repayment plan. However, you need to note that in the event you can’t repay your loan, you stand the chance of losing the asset you pledged as security. This is because the lenders will always dispose of the asset to recoup their money.

March 1, 2011- A pair of political action committees organized by GOP strategist Karl Rove and demonized by Democrats said Tuesday it plans to raise $120 million ahead of the 2012 elections to help make President Barack Obama a one-term leader and elect Republicans.
The groups were formed last year with help from President George W. Bush's political adviser Rove and former Republican National Committee chairmen Ed Gillespie and Mike Duncan to supplement the Republican Party's efforts during the midterm elections. The first major so-called Super PAC took massive sums of money — largely from undisclosed donors — and helped by a new Supreme Court ruling, the deep-pocketed group became a dominant part of last election's narrative.

Implementing sanctions on Iraq was once probably the most heinous of crimes devoted in the 20 th century. but it has obtained little consciousness within the Anglo-American international. regardless of the calamitous destruction due to the sanctions, no severe makes an attempt by way of attorneys, lecturers or philosophers were undertaken to handle the complete scope of the immorality and illegality of the sort of felony and unheard of mass punishment.

Internet Archive has placed almost half a million music tracks online that were on MySpace between 2008 and 2010. The data comes from an anonymous group of researchers. In mid-March, it was publicly announced that MySpace had lost some of its pre-2016 data.
Internet Archive calls it The Myspace Dragon Hoard and has published the collection of 1.3 TB of MP3 files and metadata on a special page. There is also a media player to search and play songs from the collection. Because a 1.3TB file is ‘unmanageable’ according to the archive, the organization has divided the files into 144 zip files.
It is not entirely clear where the 450,000 songs come from. Internet Archive employee Jason Scott writes on Twitter that they have been collected by an ‘anonymous group of researchers’. Their research was about music networks, for which they had downloaded the songs. “Someone” asked Scott if he wanted the files. A published screenshot suggests that the data was not supplied to the archive site by the researchers themselves. Scott also says that people who still have downloaded MySpace numbers can contact him.
Finally, the employee writes that Internet Archive optimizes the media player and will eventually release it under an open source license. The Internet Archive calls the player the Hobbit and says that in appearance it is based on the old music player of MySpace.
Last March it was announced that MySpace numbers from 2016 and before had been lost. How much music is lost remains unclear. The official response from the social network is that the files were corrupted during a server migration and that it is not possible to recover the lost data. According to Scott, it is ‘clear’ that parent company Meredith has never moved the old data to the new server.

War of the Rebellion: Serial 010 Page 0424 KY., TENN., N. MISS., N. ALA., AND SW. VA.
Much credit is due my officers and men generally. They fought bravely and cheerfully obeyed all orders given them.
The loss in killed, wounded, and missing I will give you in a supplementary report.
Lieutenant-Colonel, Commanding Twelfth Tennessee Regiment.
Numbers 147. Report of Major R. P. Caldwell, Twelfth Tennessee Infantry.
At about 6 o'clock on the morning of the 7th Lieutenant-Colonel Bell turned over the command of the Twelfth Tennessee Regiment to me, he being unable to perform his duties from wounds received the previous day. The regiment was very much fatigued from the labors of the previous day and from exposure and want of rest the night before, and the loss of their colonel, who had so gallantly led them the day before, had a great tendency to depress the men. We were ordered by our brigade commander to form in line of battle at an early hour in the morning. We had been formed but a short time when we discovered the enemy flanking us on the left. They opened on us with their batteries a most terrific and deadly fire, causing us to fall back out of the range of their guns. We formed again and were ordered to the support of General Bragg's command. We were led by our brigade commander and formed on the left of General Bragg's command and attacked the enemy. This engagement lasted from some time. The enemy being in strong force, we had to fall back.
In this engagement my horse was shot under me. We again formed and attacked the enemy still farther on their right, and found them in strong force behind temporary breastworks, and finding them hard to move, we were ordered to charge them. The Twelfth and Twenty-second Tennessee Regiments obeyed the order, made the charge and drove the enemy from their breastworks.
After we had taken the breastworks we discovered that the enemy had flanked us on the left and commenced a cross-fire, causing us to fall back. We again formed and advanced still farther on the enemy's right. Here we again engaged the enemy, but, the men being exhausted and unable to fight, we had to fall back. We again formed near the church, and made several unsuccessful attempts to drive the enemy back. We were then marched off the field of battle to the encampment that we occupied on Friday night.

Cooperation between non-kin is a long-standing puzzle in evolutionary biology. Since cooperation typically involves some short-term fitness cost, it should be easily undermined by cheating and competition between group members. Our long-running research project in Panama focuses on the Greater Ani, a Neotropical cuckoo with an unusual breeding system. Whereas many cuckoos are specialized parasites which lay their eggs in the nests of other species, anis nest communally. Up to eight unrelated individuals construct a single nest in which all of the females lay their eggs, and all group members participate in incubation, defense, and food delivery to the shared clutch. However, reproductive competition within the group is intense: before laying her first egg, each female ejects any eggs that have already been laid in the communal nest. Each female stops ejecting eggs once she has laid her first egg, presumably to avoid accidentally removing her own. As a result, the first female to begin laying in the communal nest invariably loses at least one egg — sometimes several — whereas the last female to enter the laying sequence loses none. A main goal of this research is to quantify the reproductive costs and benefits to females of nesting communally.
Four unrelated Greater Anis (two males and two females) simultaneously arrive at their communal nest bearing food for the mixed clutch of nestlings. Adults cannot recognize their own eggs or nestlings, so parental care is provided indiscriminately to the shared brood. © 2016 Christina Riehl.
Striped Cuckoos parasitize white egg-laying hosts in South America and blue egg-laying hosts in Central America. Different populations of Striped Cuckoos have evolved polymorphic egg colors to mimic the color of the host egg and fool the hosts into accepting the parasitic egg. © 2016 Christina Riehl.
Brood-parasitic cuckoos are notorious cheaters: instead of raising their own young, they lay their eggs into other species’ nests and trick the unwitting “hosts” into raising the parasitic cuckoo nestling. Some cuckoos even lay mimetic eggs that resemble the hosts’ own, fooling the host into accepting the cuckoo’s egg. We are currently studying the evolution of this fascinating adaptation in the Striped Cuckoo, a widespread but little-studied bird of the New World tropics. In South America, Striped Cuckoos lay white eggs that are identical to those of the hosts that they parasitize. In Central America, however, they lay blue eggs which mimic a different set of host species. In areas where these two host groups overlap, cuckoos in the same population lay either white or blue eggs. What is the genetic basis of egg color– do these two populations represent distinct species, or is the adaptation maternally inherited? Where did blue eggs evolve from the ancestral white condition, and did they enable the Striped Cuckoo to spread northwards from South America and exploit new host species? This project is an international collaboration between researchers in the United States and Latin America, providing a rare opportunity to study a breeding system that is unique among Neotropical birds.
Honeybees, which dance to communicate information on potential hive sites, provide a spectacular example of how many individuals can arrive at a consensus to choose a new home. But how do other animal groups, such as cooperatively breeding birds and mammals, come to collective decisions? Despite a large theoretical literature, experimental studies on wild animals are rare - and they have mainly focused on animals with linear dominance hierarchies and despotic decision-makers. This project proposes a comprehensive analysis of group decision-making in a cooperative species with egalitarian social relationships: the Greater Ani (Crotophaga major), a tropical cuckoo that breeds in groups that are stable over many years. Each group is composed of 2-4 adult pairs plus non-breeding helpers (up to ten individuals), which build a shared nest in which all of the group's females lay their eggs. The choice of a nest site is the single most important determinant of the reproductive success of the group - but how do so many individuals agree on where to build the nest? Preliminary data show that different pairs within the group often begin to build separate nests within the group's territory, and that communal calling displays, or rallies, play a role in determining which of these sites the group eventually chooses. How do individuals "vote" in these collective forums? How do they overcome conflicts of opinion when group members disagree? And how do their kin relationships, social bonds, knowledge, and experience influence the group's decision?

From left: Stephen D. Manbeck, assistant professor of HVAC technology at Penn College; scholarship recipients Bryce T. Crowley and Andrew T. Kappelmeier; and Richard C. Taylor, associate professor of plumbing and heating.
WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — Two Pennsylvania College of Technology students were recently awarded scholarships from industry partners.
Andrew T. Kappelmeier, of Landenberg, and Bryce T. Crowley, of Smethport, both enrolled in the two-year heating, ventilation and air conditioning technology major, are among the 2015 recipients of the Clifford H. “Ted” Rees Jr. Scholarship.
Kappelmeier is a first-year student, and Crowley is completing the associate-degree major with plans to pursue a bachelor’s degree in building automation technology: heating, ventilation and air conditioning technology concentration.
Kappelmeier was also awarded tuition assistance and tools through the Educational Foundation of the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors — National Association, which administers the scholarship for Ridgid, a sponsor since 2011.
The Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute’s Rees Scholarship Foundation has distributed more than $380,000 since 2003 to honor a former president of the organization for his efforts to encourage heating, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration and water-heating manufacturers’ support of stronger vocational and technical education nationwide.
The scholarship program is meant to assist with the recruitment and competency of future technicians by awarding scholarships to qualified students who are enrolled (or plan to enroll) in an institutionally credentialed school. Both of Penn College’s related majors are accredited by the Partnership for Air Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Accreditation and endorsed by the Air Conditioning Contractors of America.
Selection criteria used by the scholarship review committee included academic performance, letters of recommendation, work history, and a short essay.
AHRI is a trade association representing 315 member companies that account for more than 90 percent of the residential and commercial HVACR and water heating equipment manufactured and sold in North America.
The PHCC Educational Foundation is a partnership of contractors, manufacturers and wholesalers that serves the plumbing-heating-cooling industry by providing educational tools. Ridgid is a leading manufacturer of tools and equipment for the professional trades.

So, you ultimately gave inside a had a puppy. Now you should know how to proceed next. Young puppies are in danger of a variety of illnesses, but they may be avoided. Among the first things you must do after getting your pup home, is see a vet for an exam and vaccinations.
D- Canine Distemper – A viral infection which may be fatal. Affects the respiratory system, gastrointestinal and nervous systems.
P- Parvovirus – Life-threatening, affects the liner from the intestines. Many veterinarians suggest that certain breeds, for example Dobermans and Rottweilers, must have 2 parvo vaccines. The ultimate vaccine ought to be given at 20 days old.
Cv- Coronavirus – much like parvovirus although not usually fatal.
Following the puppy is really a years old, this vaccine ought to be given yearly. There are many other vaccines your dog will have to remain healthy. The rabies vaccine is offered to pups at 4 several weeks old and repeated the year after. Following the second year the rabies vaccine is offered every 24 months. If you are planning to board your pup (or dog), the vet can give a Bordetella vaccine. This really is given like a spray within the nose and protects your dog from kennel cough, which is what it states…a cough, and it is highly contagious. The Lyme vaccine is offered to safeguard from the tick borne illness. Lyme disease causes joint discomfort, fever and inflamed lymph nodes. It’s succumbed a number of 2 doses, one at 8 days and something at 12 days.
Aside from the vaccinations, your pup, at 6 several weeks old have a bloodstream test for heart earthworm. When the test returns obvious, he’ll begin a regular monthly does of heart earthworm prevention medication. Finally, between 6 and 12 several weeks old, veterinarians recommend your pup be spayed or neutered.

Tuesday in the NBA give you the chance to play a bunch of OKC guys and then fill in the rest of your lineup along the margins. Such is the case when Atlanta takes the court against anyone. Let’s break down the NBA slate for FanDuel and DraftKings.
I suppose we can somewhat forgive Westbrook’s *off* game on Saturday when he only had 24 points and 10 rebounds in the win over the Spurs. Hell, he was only a game removed from the double overtime 24 point, 24 assist, 13 rebound loss to San Antonio two days before. Now Russ gets a much easier matchup against the Hawks who run the fastest pace in the league and play the 25th ranked defensive efficiency. Westbrook is the clear cash game play on this slate with the Thunder -9 road favorites. It suggests the Hawks can at least stay in the game and the Thunder might not get buzzed on minutes because of the blowout. Russ is averaging his triple-double and will likely be a chalk play on this slate.
The Lakers are coming off an embarrassing home loss to the Cavaliers on Sunday. They are now 3-7 since Lebron James went down with the groin injury and Lonzo’s minutes and production have been erratic in Lebron’s absence. I do think the plan is to play the former high 30’s minutes when things are going *well*. He went 41 against the Cavs and finished with 13 points, eight rebounds, and eight assists. I think we can expect some similar run in this game against the hapless Bulls. Ball is a value on both sites but you need to live with some of the variance in his game.
Jeremy Lin continues to see quality minutes off the bench for the Hawks. This isn’t a great matchup against the Thunder, but Lin might still have some value because he can put it together on a points per minute basis.
I see Schroder as a nice pairing with Westbrook and George (who we will get to in a minute) seeing as how the matchup is choice and if the game turns into a blowout it likely because these three poured on the scoring. Schroder will play crunch time with the starting unit if the game stays close and he sees enough non-Westbrook minutes to keep the usage in a reasonable range. He’s struggling from the field in the short term, shooting under 36% from the field over his last six games. That’s some serious run back with the scoring and he’s due for a bounce-back game in that respect.
Oh man, talk about a guy running bad shooting the ball. Over his last five games, Hart is shooting 29% from the field and 18% from three. These are just bottom of the barrel numbers and it’s actually making it tough for Luke Walton to keep him on the floor. I do think he turns things around and regression on some of those numbers would mean a serious buy-low opportunity even at these mid-tier prices. Playing the Bulls would represent a chance to take advantage of a soft defense and if Hart does pick things up (especially from beyond the arc) then there’s tremendous upside on this play.
If Gary Harris sits again then we would have another value opportunity with guys like Torrey Craig and Malik Beasley. The question is whether we have the news in time.
Stacking the OKC guys on Tuesday seems to make a lot of sense. They aren’t necessarily completely cost-prohibitive considering the matchup and there’s such a high floor on their fantasy scoring. George is averaging more than 22 shots per game over the last month and has found a way to co-exist with Westbrook. It’s led to higher usage and he’s still a value on both sites in this matchup. Like I said, I love stacking most of the relevant OKC plays on Tuesday because they give you such a high floor against an Atlanta team that’s running and gunning from the jump.
Few players in the game have 37+ minutes as an average amount of run, but that’s basically what you’re getting with Ingram these days. With Lebron out of the lineup, that’s basically what you are getting out of the guy and he’s been one of the team’s usage leaders in the short term. Over the last seven games, Ingram is averaging 16 shots per game and an 18 point, seven rebound, three assist average. It’s mostly the minutes I’m interested in here and he has such a high floor because of the above average court time relative to price.
Continue to consider T.J. Warren even with Devin Booker coming back.
With Dewayne Dedmon out last game, Spellman got the start and ran 30 minutes. He finished with 13 points and 6 rebounds while also chipping in four blocks. The defensive stats aren’t likely to be replicated, but you can expect him to get a similar a similar amount of run with Dedmon doubtful to play on Tuesday. Look, this is the Hawks so things can change at a moment’s notice without any hint. That’s what happens with bad teams after all. But Atlanta has at least been somewhat feisty in the short term, hanging with some teams much better than them. If Spellman is back in the starting lineup, expect him to be a popular punt on Tuesday.
I know we’ve gone full-on Thunder for this set of picks, but such is the case when you get the Hawks showing up on your schedule. From a basketball perspective, Grant is the consummate role player, able to play and defend multiple positions which helps him stay on the court for long stretches. He isn’t going to get a ton of usage in this offense, sharing the court with Russ and PG, but he’s also a willing defender (seven blocks over the last three games) and will typically chip in enough around the periphery to stay fantasy relevant. Again, I’m all about stacking the Thunder on Tuesday and Grant is just another way to pull it off.
If Myles Turner was ruled out once again, then Domantas Sabonis and Thaddeus Young would once again be in play. But Turner practiced on Monday and it looks like for all intents and purposes he’ll be back in the rotation on Tuesday.
The last of the OKC guys mostly because we are out of positions. Adams should be able to put in work against the Spellman/ Len front court and now the question, at least on FanDuel, only becomes which four Thunder we roster on Tuesday. With Nerlens Noel injured, the Thunder are short a center and that has meant even more minutes for Adams in the short term. He’s a double-double candidate in this matchup against a weak Hawks’ front court. The steals have been on point for Adams and he’s recorded two per game over the last six games. Against a sloppy team like Atlanta, those stats come even more into play.
I see Bro-Lo as more of a DraftKings’ play on Tuesday against the Heat. He doesn’t play a traditional center position for the Bucks. They use him more as a stretch five with Giannis and that does cause some mismatch issues for opposing teams who don’t want to follow him out to the perimeter. That could cause Miami some problems and at a weaker position I’m fine spending in the middle tier for Lopez’s three-point upside.

You just can't underestimate how much better your camping experience will be with easy to set up, reliable lighting and shower equipment.
Thats why at 4x4 Equip we've designed this unique Wire Light and Shower Holder. Much effort has gone into developing a holder which does not fall down on you, as many have no doubt experienced with other similar products on the market! Such products rely on the weight of the light or shower to maintain friction, but if bumped they may slide or fall to the ground, potentially damaging the product. With our unique product, the wire has been bent in such a way that it wraps around both the spigot and shaft of the light pole or suitable tent pole, which prevents it from falling.
The wire has then been zinc coated for durability and corrosion resistance. It has been designed to suit almost every 12V camp light or shower product on the market today and is fully adjustable due to the Velcro retaining straps. The 4x4 Equip Wire Light and Shower Holder may be purchased separately or as part of the Free Standing Light and Shower Pole kit.

Isn’t “honeymoon” a funny word to use when talking about the period just after your child’s diagnosis with an incurable chronic illness? A traditional honeymoon takes place after a joyous occasion, a wedding between two people who are deliriously in love. Nothing about the diagnosis experience is joyous, and there’s not much to love about type 1 diabetes.
My son Miles was 6 when he was diagnosed, and for the most part, we adjusted to the new routine fairly well. Waking up in the night to prick his finger was no fun, but there were no crazy spikes in blood sugar, no scary lows to send you running for a juice box… ahhh, bliss! I’m kidding, of course. We all know that initial period just after diagnosis is no walk in the park. There’s a lot to learn, and it’s a big adjustment. But for us, things were fairly easy to control with a small insulin-to-carb ratio and correction factor. As long as Miles took his insulin as instructed, he was okay.
Until one night, he wasn’t.
His dad and I were doing the usual evening parenting rush with three kids, tag-teaming between dinner and dishes and baths and bedtime stories. On top of that, of course, was Miles’ diabetes care, which was checking his blood sugar with a meter and bolusing insulin by injection. As we rushed from one child’s room to the next, we hardly noticed Miles had fallen asleep before we could check, so we pricked his finger as he slept peacefully in his bed. Fumbling around in the dark, we were shocked to read the number that appeared on his meter.
It was low. Lower than Miles had ever been before, and quite honestly, lower than he’s ever been since. We followed the treatment protocol from our doctor… and then, we sat. (Anyone who has experienced a true low blood sugar knows that those 15 minutes you’re supposed to wait before checking again feel like an eternity.) We checked again in 5 minutes, and he hadn’t come up yet.
“What if he isn’t truly asleep, but passed out?” I asked, scared out of my mind for the first time since we learned he had diabetes. That feeling of not knowing whether your child is sleeping or unconscious is something I never want to feel again… but at some point probably will.
We waited in the dark at our son’s side, staring at the meter and testing every 5 minutes. Finally he came up — 68, then 92, then 165 — and we knew he would be okay. But it was clear that the honeymoon was indeed over.
About a month or so later, we decided to take the kids on an overnight adventure. At ages 2, 6, and 9, a hotel with a pool and a restaurant meal were all the entertainment they needed, so off we went to nearby Portland, Maine, for a quick getaway. Of course, we packed plenty of syringes, insulin, glucose tabs, juice, test strips, emergency treatment for severe low blood sugar, and Miles’ meter. Wouldn’t want to be stuck somewhere without all that he needed to stay in control!
I had heard of this great restaurant where there were bears and moose heads on the walls, huge portions of delicious, farm-fresh food, and something like 150 craft beers on tap. Well, others had surely heard of it too, because when we arrived, there was more than an hour-long wait for a table. Tired from the trip and with no idea what other options were nearby, we stayed put and waited for our name to be called.
I can’t recall exactly why, or what Miles had eaten that day, but when we finally did reach our table, Miles’ blood sugar had skyrocketed to almost 500. Stunned by this number, I panicked, and immediately reached for his injection supplies. Only, his diabetes kit didn’t have any syringes inside. Somehow we had misplaced them and left them behind in the hotel room.
With three very hungry and tired kids finally ready to order their dinner, I was faced with this awful realization that Miles was sky-high and I didn’t have any way to give him insulin either as a correction or for his meal.
Just then, the waitress appeared.
The kids began shouting out what they wanted, while I just sat frozen in disbelief, with no idea what to do.
The honeymoon was most definitely over.
We asked the server for a few more minutes and had a heated, panicked discussion. Do we leave? Stay? Eat? Wait? Eventually, we decided that one of us would drive back to the hotel and get the diabetes supplies, while the other would sit and make the kids all wait just a little longer to eat dinner. Second only to that night in the dark with the scary low glowing from the meter, those were the longest 30 minutes of my life… making my hungry children wait to eat until their dad returned.
Looking back at it, I probably would do things differently if that happened today. I’d let them eat, give Miles plenty of water and as low-carb a meal as possible, and get him back to the hotel as fast as my car would safely go. But in those early days of the post-honeymoon period, you just have no idea what you’re in for. No matter how hard you try, diabetes has a mind of its own and sometimes you lose control.
Luckily, experiences like these are lessons learned, and over time you panic less and plan more. And when things don’t go according to plan, you know it’s par for the course. Like marriage, life with diabetes isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. The honeymoon is nice, but the hard work comes next. And you CAN do it.

I am writing to thank you for another successful conference of the International Iraqi Medical Association which has just completed in Hammamet, Tunisia.
To start with, the attendance was excellent with over 250 medical professionals including physicians, pharmacists, and other allied health professionals predominantly from Iraq. In addition, your efforts have enriched the conference with local participants from Tunisia as well as from Palestine through the Tunisian Palestinian Medical Association (of graduates from Iraq). This gave the conference added international exposure. The audience was extremely enthusiastic about learning and interacted very actively with the presenters in a very dignified scientific exchange.
The Scientific program was very robust and covered a wide scope of topics which made it appealing to the audience members who have a variety of medical specialties. The papers presented ranged from review papers covering the up to date knowledge in various fields of medicine as well as very credible research papers done locally in Iraq addressing important public health issues. The conference was particularly enriched by a large number of young presenters from within Iraq’s various cities, who used it as a platform to present their original research which was well received. In addition, speakers from around the world also gave the conference an important scientific enrichment. Of particular importance was the participation of the local Tunisian speakers who shared with the audience the local practice about a variety of medical topics, highlighting the similarities in medical care between Iraq and Tunisia.
The logistical side of the conference including the venue and the travel arrangements were also very well received. The venue in particular was very convenient and modern and accommodated the meeting requirements as well as the logistical requirements in entertainment provided to the guests. I had a lot of positive feedback from the audience about this aspect. Similarly, the logistics involving travel, transport, and the social program were largely successful with the hard work of the IIMA supportive staff on the ground as well as the chapter presidents in Iraq and group leaders.
In summary, this was a very successful conference that will give the association a boost to continue in future activities and particularly maintaining an annual general meeting in addition to the specialty conferences and workshops proposed. I would like to thank you and all the staff for the hard work.

I am currently undertaking a PhD studentship with the STARS CDT, under the supervision of James McDonald and Davey Jones. The PhD is focussed on the role that microbes play in the degradation of lignocellulose in soils, using metagenomics and high-throughput in situ cultivation techniques to achieve this.
Before starting my PhD, I undertook a BSc in ecology with a placement year, and an MRes in biological sciences, at Cardiff University.
Lignocellulose is the most abundant biocomposite on Earth, making up 90% of plant material. Degradation of lignocellulose is the rate limiting step in the global carbon cycle, yet we have a poor understanding of how lignocellulose is degraded, due to the intractability of most microorganisms to culture. I will be attempting to address this knowledge gap using high-throughput in situ cultivation of soil microorganisms with subsequent mesocosm experiments, alongside genomic and metagenomic studies. Understanding the community function and dynamics of lignocellulose degraders in soil has biotechnological implications for production of biofuel, and will be critical for refining predictions of soil carbon fluxes, as dependent on soil microbial community.

Cremation services in Flournoy, CA completely understand how you will be devastated by the loss of a loved one and will need help and assistance in arranging a cremation.
One of the main reasons that people regularly choose a cremation over a burial is linked to the cremation costs in Flournoy, CA. The final bill for cremating a person is usually far lower than the cost of arranging a burial because you do not have to pay for the land, its preparation and then the long-term upkeep.
Across all of America cremations are rapidly increasing as the most popular choice of interment and it is predicted that over 50% of people will choose cremation within the next 20 years or so. An exact and full price list will be passed to the person organizing the cremation so that you fully understand all of the cremation costs in Flournoy, CA.
Why Do People Choose Cremation in Flournoy, CA?
When you have experienced standing around a graveside as the body is lowered into the earth, it is an experience that many prefer to forget. The very different, and less dramatic experience of attending a cremation, focuses more on the person who has died rather than the events organized by Flournoy, CA cremation services.
Some religions will only accept a cremation as the only option for interment and this will be explained by cremation services in Flournoy, CA. In the past, other religions would not accept a cremation as an alternative, but in modern times, the majority of religions are completely accepting of the cremation method being used.
In the majority of states, you can care for the deceased at your own home, but the majority of people will prefer that cremation services in Flournoy, CA will undertake the facility.
Flournoy, CA cremation services will explain that the body of the deceased is placed into a container which can be a coffin or casket, but a simple and suitable container is all that the law requires. At the crematorium, the employees will remove jewelry and medical devices, like pacemakers, to reduce the safety hazards for the cremation process. An efficient tagging system is used so that the individual can always be properly identified.
The individual will be cremated in the furnace at temperatures between 1400?F and 2000?F during the course of 2 to 3 hours, when the body will be reduced completely to fine powder, mostly a grey color. These are the ashes that are then returned to the nominated person as part of the cremation costs in Flournoy, CA.
All of the options related to the memorial service will be carefully discussed with Flournoy, CA cremation services.
The Flournoy, CA cremation costs will detail whether the crematorium will be supplying a standard urn to return the ashes to you or whether you have opted to purchase a model for display which you may decide to use for a number of years.
The individual is always cremated alone, so you can rest assured that the ashes being returned to you are always correct and all of the procedures will be explained in detail by Flournoy, CA cremation services.
Some religious groups will require for a cremation to be completed inside 24 hours after the death of the person. This will be arranged by the funeral director and included within the Flournoy, CA cremation costs, once all of the legal documentation is complete.
There are so many things that you need to think about after someone has died so you should not be worried about leaning heavily on the skills and experience offered by Flournoy, CA cremation services.
