Today through Sunday, Extrabux is doing their part to help make the world a greener place: in celebration of Earth Day, the program will plant one tree for every purchase made through their site.
This promotion is part of the company’s partnership with American Forests, the oldest national non-profit conservation organization in the US.
Extrabux points out that online shopping is 35% greener than in-store shopping, according to a 2008 Carnegie Mellon University study. Shipping products directly from a distribution center to the customer, bypassing a warehouse and a retail store, reduces transportation (and the associated energy use and CO2 emissions).
When you shop through Extrabux through Sunday and plant a tree, you’ll also be enjoying the highest overall cashback rates available according to my Side effects of viagra.
Nice gesture from a nice group of folks over at Extrabux — I hope you’ll give them your cashback business this weekend.

I'll play in 10 min.
What's this new pro club?
I think you can join it without an invite. It's called AC Goal Legacy.
Might do soon, might be going out but that can wait until it's not 505005 degrees outside.
A few people online now.
Looks like we'll be stuck in div 3/4 since the style doesn't work in the higher divisions. We need a good any. It's impossible to deal with the quick pros with the CPU defenders.
Dat feel when you think you score the game winning goal in the 85th min. to get the club promoted to div.2, but they score in the 87th min. and you tie 1-1 and stay in div.3.

Changes to the Public Information Act and the Municipal Power of Attorney, which entered into force on 1st January 2017, means that “associations whose purposes or behaviour contradict and undermine democracy and fundamental freedoms and human rights …” should not be able to rent public or municipal venues. As reported by Berlingske on November 14, 2018, the municipality of Copenhagen intends to refuse Hizb ut Tahrir to rent “Nørrebrohallen” with reference to this totalitarian regulation.
Here, one has got to ask: what fragile and crumbling foundation is this democracy and these values build on, since they are undermined by criticism and Islamic opinions?
For years, Hizb ut Tahrir has been a thorn in the eye of Copenhagen politicians whenever the party’s open political and cultural events have filled the municipality’s sites with interested audiences. The municipality’s own lawyers have previously pointed out that it would violate the principle of equality if the municipality rejected Hizb ut Tahrir – a principle that has had to be sacrificed, since no Western principle is sacred in the fight against the call to Islam’s thoughts and systems.
This law-regulation is part of the bloated struggle against Islam in this country, led by the government and parliament and trumpeted by willing so-called “free” media. Ministers and prominent politicians rush forward with one crazy and socially undermining proposal after another to appear tough on Muslims and stifle Islamic expressions in a panic-like fear of Islam being normalized and rooted further in this country.
Strict regulations targeting Muslim schools, the Niqab-ban and the criminalization of Islamic expressions, are all initiatives of this struggle. None of the highly praised “values of freedom” escape the butcher-knife in this culturally suicidal campaign to fight Muslim identity and the critical thinking of non-Muslims.
Denmark is ideologically and culturally racing towards the abyss in trying to prevent the spread of the thoughts of Islam. These totalitarian measures are therefore nothing but convulsions from a shaky culture with a contradictory societal system. Politicians claim that they want to protect democracy from Islamic fundamentalism; but the reality is that they, with their tyranny of values, are in the process of burying their liberal values with their own hands.
We, in Hizb ut Tahrir, unreservedly continue our work to protect Muslim identity in Denmark and call non-Muslims to embrace Islam, as we tirelessly continue our work for the return of all of Islam with the establishment of the righteous Caliphate (Khilafah Rashidah) in the Islamic world. The only consequence of the politicians’ constant attacks and legislative actions is that they undermine the foundation of their own society and contribute to the strengthening of our thoughts.

The Dressmaker. A best-selling novel written by Rosalie Ham and recently turned into an award-winning film starring Kate Winslet and Liam Hemsworth. It is a story set in the 1950’s, in the fictional outback town of Dungatar, Australia. Tilly played by Kate returns to her hometown after a successful career in Paris as a dressmaker to tend to her ill mother and in the process transforms the townspeople with her dress designs. The tale has numerous themes, none more prevalent than fashion itself and its undeniable power of inner and outer self renewal.
And it is these very fashions in The Dressmaker, a total of fifty haute couture creations by costume designers Margot Wilson and Marion Boyce that are currently on display at the Rippon Lea Estate in Melbourne.
And last Thursday night I had the extreme pleasure of attending an exclusive bloggers preview to marvel at the incredibly iconic pieces showcased in the movie, and meet with the costume designer and author themselves.
The Dressmaker costume exhibition, now open to the public to peruse, is on display at the Rippon Lea House and Gardens. The estate itself is a gloriously palatial mansion built in the 1960’s. Truly a most exquisitely luxe locale, both on the inside and out and one that is perfection paired with these dazzling vintage pieces. Walking through the grounds and into the building, surrounded by interior architecture and design of a bygone era and then accompanied by specific sartorial pieces, the experience as a whole truly catapults you back in time, and dare I say back to Dungatar in the 1950’s.
The couture is displayed so tastefully, each with an accompanying backdrop, relevant to scenes from the movie The Dressmaker itself. Laid out like a story awaiting to be read, the exhibition does a tremendous job in revealing pieces inspired by Parisian couture of the 1950’s, delicately highlighting detail and the precision involved in the process of costume design and its development for the film.
And being in such close proximity to breathtaking vintage pieces is a real joy for any sartorial admirer.
Discerning and detecting every stitch, every weave and fabric embroidery is truly sensational for the senses. The resplendent array of lace and colour, the construction and artisanship of pieces were quality is clearly evident. One thing is for sure, they just don’t make fashion like this anymore. Which in turn is quite saddening. Especially as women, the fact that we’ve become so accustomed to poorly and unethically made clothing, that we settle for ordinary and mass production because the media tells us so or simply because financially, some of us have no say in the matter. The designs from The Dressmaker will leave you very much aware and perhaps longing for the days of fanfare, of well fitted and produced clothing.
Aside from being able to inspect each piece, I also had the pleasure of conversing with Marion for a second time and with the author, Rosalie Ham who was a delight to meet. And as an aspiring author, her energy and enthusiasm for her work, especially in having it produced into a film is utterly contagious. She is sincerely proud as punch and you can’t help but revel her elation.
When it comes to the actual novel, the themes in The Dressmaker were inspired by her everyday life and her displeasure for the alarming amounts of hypocrisy, bigotry and vanity she witnessed around her. Something which was a common matter, regardless of wherever you found yourself in the world.
Her mother was a dressmaker, as most women were back then. Though the many ensembles she illustrated in her novel were far from inspired by her own mothers humble designs. In fact she actually drew musings for the fashions from midday movies she watched on television or via numerous books she’d explored at libraries. She had clear and concise visuals for each character to which were dressed accordingly. She humbly delights in these pieces, feeling rather accomplished in terms of fashion design. However in seeing her story come to life and the ravishing pieces that Marion had acquired and created she began to view her own inspirations as plainly modest, something as a writer I find to be amusing.
When it comes to the ensembles in the movie The Dressmaker, she doesn’t have just one favourite, rather finding herself drawn to various pieces and all for individual reasons. Something which mostly changes on a daily basis. For the moment, she adores the green silk crepe piece that character Marigold wore. And of course the red polka dot number, a vintage Nina Ricci that pirouette’s behind her also makes her swoon.
When it came to her work being transformed into film, she had complete faith in producer Sue Maslin. Having grown up in the same community and even going to school together, Rosalie knew Sue would be able to translate and correlate her story onto the big screen like no one else. While she gave her free reign she did have one stipulation, that her family, friends and herself got to be extras on the film. Something which was happily granted.
And while there were noticeable differences between the book and film, Rosalie has no qualms. Sue Maslin converted the story perfectly and Margot and Marion’s costumes were on par with the overall image and feel of her story. Ultimately Rosalie had no problem handing her story over as she patiently waited for her great moment, on screen with none other than Kate Winslet.
And of course Marion Boyce, one of the astounding individuals behind the incredible array of costumes and couture acquired for the movie. Her passion and adoration for the era, for style and accoutrement really shine in these designs. Her ability to breathe life into forgotten pieces, making them covetable and very much wearable is an enviable skill.
Though the beginnings of this project were far from effortless. For Marion, it was a challenging process trying to marry high end couture with a desolate and unglamorous landscape. However in an unexpected turn of events it was this very environment which ultimately inspired her. That and the photographic work of Richard Avedon. From the colour palette at the beginning of the film, an assortment of dusty browns and rusted hues to the forms and flow of each ensemble, something that inspired by the graceful flight and movement of birds which was ubiquitous on set. Correlating their movement with the characters as a type of preening, almost peacock like in appearance and mimicking this with the use of shawls.
There were a number of unique vintage pieces acquired for the movie The Dressmaker, all located from various sources worldwide. Out of these, Marion’s favourite piece is red polka dot number, an original vintage Nina Ricci, later worn by Gertrude. One that also happens to be my favourite too. Another stand out piece was the matador jacket worn by Hugo Weaving on the film. Another vintage beauty sourced from Spain and one that helped inspire the design for the pants to accompany it. The jacket is a resplendent work of art, thick in adornment and gold embroidery.
While Marion had adored pieces, there was one that she felt most connected to and that was an organza cape, a piece created by John Van Gastel.
Fabric has a unique way of transforming and an ability of revitalising the wearer. While in relation to todays fashions, this could be somewhat questionable. The style of yesteryear and designs created and on display for The Dressmaker are very much palpable. Clothing was made to measure, made to endure. It was a luxury more than necessity and something the wearer wore with pride. Pieces were indeed made to last and they were unique nonetheless. Unlike todays mass production of fast fashion.
“i like finding pieces. i find a lot of fashion totally dictates the way you have to wear it, and I like to find pieces that you can then translate in different ways and reformat in different ways and then wear it the way you want instead of the way someone wants you to be.
As Marion points out, todays style we all seem to blend as one and these pieces don’t last long before becoming riddled with annoying small holes and loose threads; worst yet easily becoming dated. The 1950’s were incredibly glamorous, individual style was commonplace and not something that was desperately attempted to be attained. There’s no wonder why this period was highlighted. A costume designer really needs to understand the material and the script before them to be able to construe. The rich use of silk and paper taffetas, lace and embroidery really pay homage to a time of pure artistry and finesse.
The Dressmaker exhibition is held at Rippon Lea House and Gardens and runs from the 22nd of April until the 31st of July. Tickets are available now online or at the venue.

James finished with 20 points, 15 assists and 12 rebounds to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers past the Washington Wizards 106-99 on Sunday night for their 18th victory in 19 games.
Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James wears Equality shoes against the Washington Wizards during the first half of their NBA game at Capital One Arena in Washington, DC, on December 17, 2017. The Cavs won 106-99.
LeBron James joked that he changed out of his shoes — one black, one white, with "equality" in gold capital letters — at halftime because he was playing poorly.
"If that's a bad game," teammate Kevin Love said, "then sheesh!"
James finished with 20 points, 15 assists and 12 rebounds to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers past the Washington Wizards 106-99 on Sunday night for their 18th victory in 19 games, and then said afterward his choice of footwear was related to the game being played about a mile from US President Donald Trump's White House.
"This is a beautiful country and we're never going to let one person dictate how beautiful and how powerful we are," the four-time National Basketball Association MVP said.
"I actually played pretty bad tonight. I wasn't as strong with the ball: I had 6 turnovers. Kind of lazy with the ball, at times," James said. "And my teammates did a great job bailing me out."
Love led Cleveland with 25 points and added 9 rebounds. Jeff Green added 15 points, and Kyle Korver scored 11.
"He just affects the game in so many ways and makes a lot of plays for other guys, too," Love said about James. "He's just setting us up and getting us into our spots. That's what he does. He's our leader."
The last time these teams played, in Washington on November 3, Cleveland won thanks to 57 points from James.
That prompted Wizards coach Scott Brooks to joke before tipoff on Sunday that holding the four-time league MVP to "56 would be pretty good tonight". He also cracked, "I have a lot of respect for Coach (Tyronn) Lue, but I think he's making a bad decision if he doesn't sit LeBron tonight. Back-to-back games, right? Our fans saw 57. They don't need to see any more."
"His IQ is the highest I've ever been around," Brooks said afterward. "Just the way he sees the floor."
Bradley Beal led Washington with 27 points, and John Wall had 15 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists in 32 minutes in his third game back after missing nine with an injured left knee.
In a matchup of Eastern Conference division leaders, neither team led by more than 7 until Wall turned the ball over, leading to a fast break for James, who was fouled at the other end and completed the 3-point play for a 103-94 lead.
"Against a great team like that, you have to be sharp the whole game," Wizards forward Mike Scott said. "In the fourth, we weren't sharp on the offensive end, and they made plays."
Elsewhere on Sunday, it was: Pistons 114, Magic 110; Raptors 108, Kings 93; and Pacers 109, Nets 97.

The company's US headquarters is in Coppell, Texas. Headquarters for the Asia-Pacific region is in Singapore whilst Japan and Korea operations are headquartered in Tokyo. The company headquarters for the Greater China region is in Shanghai.
in 1985 it bought Mostek, a US company founded in 1969 as a spin-off of Texas Instruments, from UTC.
In 2007, US-based Genesis Microchip. Genesis Microchip is known for their strength in video processing technology (Faroudja) and has design centres located in Santa Clara, Toronto, Taipei City, Taiwan R.O.C. and Bangalore.
On December 8, 1994, the company completed its initial public offering on the Paris and New York stock exchanges. Owner Thomson SA sold its stake in the company in 1998 when the company also listed on the Borsa Italiana in Milan.
In 2002, Motorola and TSMC joined ST and Philips in a new technology partnership. The Crolles2 Alliance was created with a new 12" wafer manufacturing facility located in Crolles (France).
By 2005, ST was ranked fifth, behind Intel, Samsung, Texas Instruments and Toshiba, but ahead of Infineon, Renesas, NEC, NXP, and Freescale. The company was the largest European semiconductors supplier, ahead of Infineon and NXP.
Early in 2007, NXP (formerly Philips Semiconductors) and Freescale (formerly Motorola Semiconductors) decided to stop their participation in Crolles2 Alliance. Under the terms of the agreement the Alliance came to an end on December 31, 2007.
On May 22, 2007, ST and Intel created a joint venture in the memory application called Numonyx. This new company merged ST and Intel Flash Memory activities.
Semiconductor market consolidation continued with ST and NXP announcing on April 10, 2008, the creation of a new joint venture of their mobile activities, with ST owning 80% of the new company and NXP 20%. This joint venture began on August 20, 2008.
On February 10, 2009, ST Ericsson, a joint venture bringing together ST-NXP Wireless and Ericsson Mobile Platforms, was established.
In 2011, ST announced the creation of a joint lab with Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies. The lab will focus on research and innovation in bio-robotics, smart systems and microelectronics. Past collaborations with Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies included DustBot, a platform that integrated self-navigating "service robots" for waste collection.
ST Ericsson was a multinational manufacturer of wireless products and semiconductors, supplying to mobile device manufacturers. ST-Ericsson was a 50/50 joint venture of Ericsson and STMicroelectronics established on February 3, 2009, and dissolved on August 2, 2013. Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, it was a fabless company, outsourcing semiconductor manufacturing to foundry companies.
Following an earlier failure, STMicroelectronics has stayed out of the volatile markets for DRAM and PC microprocessors. In 1994, it attempted to launch compatible Intel 80486 microprocessors in partnership with American company Cyrix. Only model one was completed, the 1995 Cyrix M1 microprocessor, which was intended to compete with Intel's Pentium family.
Unlike so-called fabless semiconductor companies, STMicroelectronics owns and operates its own semiconductor wafer fabs. The company owned five 8 inch (200 mm) wafer fabs and one 12 inch (300 mm) wafer fab in 2006. Most of the production is scaled at 0.18 µm, 0.13 µm, 90 nm and 65 nm (measurements of transistor gate length). STMicroelectronics also owns back-end plants, where silicon dies are assembled and bonded into plastic or ceramic packages.
Grenoble is one of the company's most important R&D centres, employing around 4,000 staff. The Polygone site employs 2200 staff and is one of the historical bases of the company (ex SGS). All the historical wafer fab lines are now closed but the site hosts the headquarters of many divisions (marketing, design, industrialization) and an important R&D center, focused on silicon and software design and fab process development.
The Crolles site hosts a 200 mm (8 in) and a 300 mm (12 in) fab and was originally built as a common R&D center for submicrometre technologies as part of the 1990 Grenoble 92 partnership between SGS-Thomson and CNET, the R&D center of French telecom company France Telecom. The 200 mm (8 in) fab, known as Crolles 1, is the company's first and was built as part of a 1991 partnership between SGS-Thomson and Philips to develop new manufacturing technologies. Crolles 1 was opened on September 9, 1993 by Gérard Longuet, French minister for industry.
The 300 mm (12 in) fab was inaugurated by French president Jacques Chirac, on February 27, 2003. It includes a R&D center which focuses on developing new nanometric technology processes for 90 nm to 32 nm scale using 300 mm (12 in) wafers and it was developed for The Crolles 2 Alliance'. This alliance of STMicroelectronics, TSMC, NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips semiconductor) and Freescale (formerly Motorola semiconductor) partnered in 2002 to develop the facility and to work together on process development. The technologies developed at the facility were also used by global semiconductor foundry TSMC of Taiwan, allowing TSMC to build the products developed in Crolles on behalf of the Alliance partners who required such foundry capacity. A new fab is under construction since 2015.
Employing around 3,000 staff, Rousset hosts several division headquarters including smartcards, microcontrollers, and EEPROM as well as several R&D centers. Rousset also hosts an 8-inch (200 mm) fab which was opened on May 15, 2000 by French prime minister Lionel Jospin.
The site opened in 1979 as a 100 mm (3.9 in) fab operated by Eurotechnique, a joint venture between Saint-Gobain of France and National Semiconductor of the US. Rousset was sold to Thomson-CSF in 1982 as part of the French government's 1981-82 nationalization of several industries. As part of the nationalisation, a former Thomson plant in the center of Aix-en-Provence operating since the 1960s was closed and staff were transferred to the new Rousset site. The original 100 mm (4 in) fab was upgraded into 130 mm (5 in) and later 150 mm (6 in) fab in 1996. It is now being shut down.
Employing 1,500 staff, this site hosts a fab and R&D centers.
Employing 6,000 staff, the Milan facilities match Grenoble in importance. Agrate Brianza, employs around 4000 staff and is a historical base of the company (ex SGS). The site has several fab lines (including an 300 mm (12 in) fab) and an R&D center. Castelletto, employs 300 to 400 staff and hosts some divisions and R&D centers.
The Catania plant in Sicily employs 5,000 staff and hosts several R&D centers and divisions, focusing on flash memory technologies as well as two fabs. The plant was launched in 1961 by ATES to supply under licensing to RCA of the US and initially using Germanium. The site's two major wafer fabs are a 200 mm (8 in) fab, opened in April 1997 by Romano Prodi, president of the Italian council and a 300 mm (12 in) fab that has never been completed and which was transferred in its current state to Numonyx in 2008.
As of 2010, ST employed some 1,500 people in Kirkop, making it the largest private sector employer, and the country's leading exporter.
In 1970, SGS created its first assembly back-end plant in Singapore, in the area of Toa Payoh. Then in 1981, SGS decided to build a wafer fab in Singapore. The Singapore technical engineers have been trained in Italy and the fab of Ang Mo Kio started to produce its first wafers in 1984. Converted up to 200 mm (8 in) fab, this is now an important 200 mm (8 in) wafer fab of the group. Ang Mo Kio also hosts some design centers. The site currently employs 6000 staff.
Update-2012: Numonyx JV (with Intel) is acquired by Micron in 2010. As such, AMK8 Fab (200mm HVM Fab) is currently a Micron entity. AMK5 and AMK6 remains to be STM entities.

Home Legal Answers Cannabis Law Who can sell cannabis? What education or training do you need to sell cannabis?
Private cannabis retailers require a licence from their provincial government regulator to sell cannabis products. Generally, there is no formal education required to obtain a licence, however, provincial regulations determine if there are training and educational requirements to work as an employee at a licensed cannabis dispensary.
Across Canada, both licensed producers and cannabis retailers generally only hire individuals who have some formal level of education and training in the cannabis field. In addition, many cannabis producers will look to graduates of these programs to hire as technicians and in other positions.
Provincial and territorial retail cannabis store regulators have or are developing courses for retail cannabis workers.
In addition to government required education, most provinces have cannabis-related training and education programs available at local colleges and universities which offer courses in the cultivation, promotion and sale of cannabis products. Courses cover all areas of the cannabis market, from health and safety regulations and how to grow cannabis (environmental conditions, lighting, pest control), to the business side of promotion such as marketing, pricing and packaging.

In our last two articles we’ve focused on the notion of gamescript sensitivity. Some running backs (primarily early-down thumpers who aren’t used much in the passing game) perform better for fantasy when their team is holding a lead, while other running backs (primarily scatbacks or pass-catching specialists) perform better when their team is trailing. We identified these running backs and their ideal gamescript situations here. The purpose of this article was to look for specific trends that might help us make better decisions in DFS or when making start/sit decisions in redraft leagues.
However, this also raised a second question. Who are the team’s gamescript-proof every-down running backs? Which running backs are used in all facets of the game? If a running back was used as both the primary early-down runner and primary passing-down-back, they should be wholly immune to game script.
To determine this I looked at all running backs to play on at least 300 snaps last season, and broke down their splits in games played by percentage of total snaps (the below chart is sorted by this), their percentage of total snaps on obvious passing downs (third down with six or more yards to go for a first), and then their percentage of total snaps in all other situations (Other%).
So who were the league’s every-down running backs last season?
This one’s obvious. Despite missing 18 regular-season games since entering the league in 2013, Bell still leads all running backs in total snaps played. Over this stretch he averages 10.4 snaps and 3.9 touches per game more than any other qualifying running back. Basically, you’d have to spot LeSean McCoy, No. 2 in total snaps over that time, an extra free quarter of football per game in order to match Bell. Last season Bell played on 91.0 percent of the team’s running back snaps, totaled 87.2 percent of the team’s running back carries, and totaled 100 percent of the team’s running back targets.
Although Elliott played a high number of snaps and a high number of snaps on obvious passing downs, this didn’t translate into more receiving volume. Over the past two seasons, Elliott ranks last of 48 qualifying running backs in targets per route run. The team also traded for Tavon Austin during the draft and has indicated a desire to use him as their scatback, getting him the ball “12 to 24 times per game.” While there’s absolutely no chance Austin comes near those touch totals, his presence is a concern for Elliott’s PPR value.
Despite Los Angeles winning by 25 or more points in a whopping 33 percent of Gurley’s games last season, he ranked third among all running backs in snap share. He was also heavily used in obvious passing downs. Gurley came into the season with 64 career receptions, but then put up that total in 2017 alone. It paid dividends for Los Angeles and fantasy owners alike. Los Angeles went from last to first in points per game and Gurley averaged 9.5 more fantasy points per game than he did a season ago.
Hyde came into last season with 64 targets across three seasons in the NFL. In one year under Kyle Shanahan he totaled 88 (fifth-most at the position). Hyde also drew 240 carries, which ranked 11th-most. Despite the good volume, Hyde underwhelmed in efficiency, grading out 50th of 58 qualifying running backs. With Hyde now in Cleveland, competing for touches with Nick Chubb and Duke Johnson, his ADP has rightfully plummeted. Jerick McKinnon’s draft stock has gone in the opposite direction, however, after signing the fifth-most-lucrative running back contract in the NFL. He seems poised to be an every-down running back and fantasy stud for San Francisco in 2018.
Despite ranking highly in targets, Gordon was out-snapped by the combination of Austin Ekeler and Branden Oliver in obvious passing situations. In spite of this, Gordon still benefited more from negative game script than positive gamescript in 2017. He also ranked seventh at the position in targets (73). While not a true every-down running back, he is a bell cow, and is well worth a top-20 pick in your fantasy drafts.
McCaffrey ranked highly in all categories, but this was also skewed by Carolina frequently having multiple running backs in the backfield on any given play. In reality, he was mostly just used as a scatback. 41 percent of McCaffrey’s touches came via the air last season, which ranked second-most of all 100-touch running backs. He also performed much better for fantasy when his team was trailing. Still, this was the far more productive role, with McCaffrey finishing eighth among running backs in expected fantasy points to Jonathan Stewart’s ranking of 31st. It’s possible McCaffrey’s role expands in year two – he was far more effective as a runner in college than in his rookie year – but after the team signed C.J. Anderson in free agency, it’s more likely he reprises a similar role to 2017.
Miller looked like an every-down running back last season, but he was out-snapped by Alfred Blue 93 to 63 over the team’s final three games. I’m predicting more of a committee-approach for Houston in 2018, but Miller should remain the team’s primary pass-catcher even if that is the case.
For the second straight season, Murray served in the more valuable role in Tennessee’s committee alongside Derrick Henry. In one fewer game, Murray drew eight more carries and 30 more targets to Henry. Dating back to college, Henry has rarely ever been used as a receiver, and I don’t expect that to change in 2018. For this reason, I suspect Dion Lewis will slide into Murray’s role while Henry reprises his role as the primary early-down bruiser. Needless to say, I’m much more excited about Lewis at ADP (RB27) than I am Henry (RB17) in PPR leagues.
It’s important to note Hunt’s presence on this chart. Despite ranking eighth among running backs in receiving fantasy points and 11th in targets, he was frequently getting taken off of the field in favor of Charcandrick West on obvious passing downs. Although there’s concern Hunt might lose some early down work to Spencer Ware, the team has continually indicated [1, 2] a desire to get Hunt more work as a receiver this year, despite his deficiencies as a pass-blocker last season. The increase in receiving work will be important in helping to offset any potential decline in carries, considering in PPR leagues, a target is worth 2.64 times as much as a carry for fantasy running backs.

Hélène and Daniel Crossing Canada by Bike from Vancouver(BC) to Ottawa(ON) in 2015. In 2016 we will do Ottawa(ON) to St-John's(NF).
We left Regina at 7 am under perfect conditions, sunny, 9 degrees and winds from the WNW at 27 kph. At first, we were on Hwy 1 which runs due EAST so the wind did not offer that big an advantage but once we turned onto Hwy 10, we had the wind to our back. We were able to reach Fort Qu'Appelle 70 km away in 3 hours 5 minutes. That is the fastest we have pedaled since the trip started. We had our second breakfast and did a little walkabout. After 1:30 hours, we got back on the bike heading for Melville.
Our turtles visiting with a Saskatchewan cousin. Hélène Helenstill flashing her 70 km in 3:05 hours grin.
A selfie of the entire team all still grinning from the morning ride.
First order of business, climb the hill out of the Qu'Appelle River Valley. Halfway up the hill, to our left, we noticed 3 Proghorns. If you think these guys came move quickly on the flat, you should see them run up a hill. They were so fast, that Hélène could not manage to get a clear picture. That is unusual as she can whip out that camra in a flash.
As we climb the hill, we noticed that the wind was now in our face when less than 2 hours ago it was to our back. While we were having breakfast in the village, the wind turned around 180 degrees. We were now looking at strong headwinds for the next 74 or so km. It took us almost 6 hours to get to Melville and it was our most challenging day to date. Climbing Allison Pass was a lot easier as once in a while the climb levelled out but this afternoon, there was no break from the wind, it was relentless. I checked with Environment Canada once we got to Melville and the winds this afternoon were 27 kph with gusts to 43 kph. No wonder, at times, it felt like we could not make any forward progress.
Tonight is our last night in Saskatchewan. We are hoping that the winds will be in our favour tomorrow as we head to Russell, Manitoba.
Beautiful hills. When I look at the picture of Fort Qu'Applle , I am thinking western movies, in my head I see horses and not cars :-).

A London judge quickly ruled that Assange was guilty of breaching bail in 2012. Assange’s defense was that he couldn’t get a fair trial in British courts because the U.K.’s intent was to “secure his delivery” to the United States.
Judge Michael Snow described Assange’s defense as ‘laughable’, calling him a ‘narcissist’.
“His assertion that he has had not had a fair hearing is laughable. And his behaviour is that of a narcissist who cannot get past his own self-interest,” Justice Snow said.
Sentencing will come at a later date.
Under an extradition request from the U.S., British police further arrested Assange.

As a traveler, I spend a lot of time deciding where the best places to spend my money are. I do my best to save money on travel, as I talk about in my post How To Save Money on Travel, but often these are tough choices. Do I book nice accommodations and try to save money on food? Do I splurge on nice meals and stay in a dorm-style hostel outside the city center or crash at a friend’s place? All of these decisions go into trip planning and deciding which attractions to pay for and splurge on is part of that. Visiting a city as expensive as London comes with many of these decisions, as you can imagine. Are London’s Famous Attractions worth the cost or not? Over my many trips to London, I have learned what things I am willing to pay for and which things I can pass on. I hope this post can help you decided where you do and don’t want to spend money visiting on your next trip to London!
So this one is probably one of the most tourist-y things you can do in London, but the panoramic views of the city are completely worth it. But, they are only worth it once. I have been on the London Eye three times. The first time was in 2012 during the olympics and you could see the Beach Volleyball court from the top of the Eye. The next time was with my mom and grandma in 2016 when they came to help me move back to the states after my grad program was finished.
Those two times would have been more than enough for me because the London Skyline hasn’t changed since the first time I was on the Eye in 2012. I did end up going again on my most recent trip so that my friend would not be alone, but I can honestly say I did not need to go again. The views of the city are breathtaking the first time, but after that I would say you can skip this on subsequent trips. I also recommend going at an off-peak time or opting to pay extra for the fast-track because otherwise you will spend a good chunk of time waiting in line.
Westminster Abbey is over 1000 years old and is the location where British Monarchs have been crowned since 1066 AD. It is also the burial location for monarchs and other great men and women from British history. The Abbey has also hosted at least 16 Royal weddings including the wedding of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip as well as that of Prince William and Kate Middleton. It is also an impressive gothic cathedral with gorgeous architecture. This one is a can’t miss part of London’s history and I highly recommend it.
St. Paul’s cathedral is a beautiful building, but for me it was not worth the cost to visit the inside. I have seen my share of impressive Cathedrals–Florence Cathedral being my all time favorite–so this one has never been able to draw me in. On my trip this March, my friend did elect to pay to enter and said it was beautiful and that the best part was trekking up to the Dome for panoramic views of the London. So if you really love churches and are willing to climb a few hundred steps for a good view, this one might make your worth it list. For me though, this one continues to be on my “not worth it” list.
GO SEE A SHOW. I do not support paying for the theatre tour, but paying to see a performance here is 100% worth it. You can get tickets for as little at £5 if you are willing to stand, and get the chance to see Shakespeare’s plays as they were intended to be seen. You will witness amazing acting and get to see beautiful sets. The theatre itself is right on the Thames and in a wonderful are of the city. Even if you don’t get tickets to a show, it’s still worth it to wander across Millennium Bridge to see the theatre and explore the surrounding area.
I love the theater and, as I talked about in my recent post about the Top Things to Do in London, I make it a habit of getting tickets to a show whenever I can. I have personally seen Wicked, Once(which is amazing but no longer running), Mamma Mia, Les Miserables, Book of Mormon and Hamilton(eeeeekkkk!) all of which were absolutely amazing. Most tickets will cost you around $40-50, but you can get cheap tickets the morning of the show or enter lotteries for a chance to buy low-cost tickets. Keep in mind that the more popular a show is, the more it is going to cost. The goosebumps I get when I watch a live theater show is worth every penny I spend on the ticket and I strongly believe this is an absolute must when you visit London.
This is one of those things that I adamantly believe is a waste of money in a city like London. Sure it’s a convenient way to get between some of the most famous sites in the city and have your requisite double-decker bus experience, but it’s a waste of money. You can simply utilise the massive public transit system in the city and save yourself some money. The Hop-on Hop-off buses aren’t worth the money when you can take one of the many city buses or the Tube to get to your destination for a fraction of the cost.
As you could probably tell from this post, I consider many of London’s famous attractions to be worth the money. One Tip I have if you are on a tight budget: don’t try to do everything. Prioritize which things are most important. For instance, I didn’t see all of these things on my first or even my second trip. I have been to London 9 Times and still have things left to see so if your budget is a priority, opt for one or two of these and then take advantage of all of London’s amazing free attractions!
As always, from one Misguided Millennial to the world, this has been my take on if London’s famous attractions are #worthit or not!
I can’t believe I went to London and did not do any of this! This make me want to go back and get it done right..
None of them?! Girl you need to get back there ASAP!
You should go! I’m going to be doing a post on finding cheap flights soon so maybe that can help you plan a trip!
This is really interesting to me because I did lots of touristy things in London, but didn’t pay to do any of them! I mean, I saw them from the outside but didn’t actually pay to enter. One that was surprisingly worth it to me was to go and get a drink at a bar in the Shard. Rather than pay to go to a viewpoint, you can go to the bars/restaurants for free [and pay for an expensive drink.] ha ha.
I’ve done that with a few things, like St. Paul’s Cathedral and for Shakespeare’s globe I have only paid to see shows there, not for the (overpriced) tours. And I haven’t done the shard, but I did visit the Sky Garden which has amazing views of London and is completely free! Ill be talking a bit about it in my next post!
Thanks for the great tips! I cant wait to go someday!!
It’s one of my favorite cities in the world so I hope you get to go!
I liked this article, great on worth it or not.

text: When entertaining in the summer I like to serve food and drinks that are simple to prepare but still pack a lot of fantastic summer flavours. The Aperol Spritz is a classic Italian drink which only contains 4 ingredients; 1 part Aperol, 3 parts Prosecco, a splash of soda water and an orange slice to garnish. While this drink is easy to make, the combination of herbaceous and orange notes mixed with the carbonation of the Prosecco and soda water are a must try. I conveniently made a batch to fill up a pitcher for guests so that I wouldn’t have to be running back and forth all evening, and the stemless champagne glasses on a lucite tray really elevated the drinks aesthetic.

Located from 200km to 800km north of Adelaide, the largest mountain range in South Australia is discontinuous and includes the Southern, Central and Northern Ranges. Over 500 million years old, the geology is diverse and dramatic and each town or city along the way offers something different. I’ll share with you the path we took, after doing some research.
Day 1: Pt Wakefield Road to Quorn. We stopped for a break and an excellent coffee at the Flinders Rest pub in Warnertown, then non-stop to Quorn. After checking in at the Quorn caravan park, we drove out on the Arden Vale Road (dirt, but good) to the Simmonston Ruins, where eager pioneers had built, anticipating the railway’s course, which altered.
There are several sights along this track, including Proby’s grave, the sad tale of a wealthy 24 year-old Hugh Proby, who drowned in a freak flood (the same flood that had pioneers think that there’d be plenty of water in the area).
Everywhere is a good spot to get some view of the Ranges, but Buckaringa Scenic Drive and lookout was reasonable, despite the falling light.
We headed to Warren Gorge expecting somewhere to hike, but found instead a popular place to camp on the cheap. You could certainly do hikes if you stayed here, but it wasn’t the gorge walk we were expecting. Fabulous examples of rock formations and flora typical to the area.
On our way back, we checked out the road to Dutchman’s Stern Conservation Park for the next day.
Day 2: Dutchman’s Stern is a great hiking spot, but the road out isn’t suitable for a caravan. Most of it was fine for a regular car, but there were some deep corrugations.
We decided to do the Terrace Viewpoint and see how we went for time, but then continued on to the summit. As time was short we returned by the same route, rather than doing the loop hike. The paths vary, but are not suitable for wheelchairs and there’s often loose rock. We made it in 2 hours and are of average health and fitness for over 55s. No terribly steep bits, just the occasional rubble.
The views, on this early, foggy morning were inspiring, even before we got to the Terrace Viewpoint.
Making it to the summit about 10 minutes later.
and walk back with wildlife.
Accommodation is available at the homestead and shearer’s quarters, for a reasonable group, if you decide to base yourself here and look around the area or do more walks. We went from here to Death Rock. I couldn’t find why it was called that, but the local Aboriginal people call the area Kanyaka, meaning piece of rock, and it was significant to them because it was, and remains, a permanent waterhole.
Hugh Proby (mentioned earlier) moved to the area and set up a cattle station that became one of the largest in the area until drought forced its closure. The ruins are substantial and hint at more prosperous times. They are very picturesque.
It is an easy drive from here to Hawker and then on to Wilpena Pound, where we camped in an unpowered site, beside the river bed. The park is very large and there is a swimming pool, but I’m not sure if it’s for motel guests. The rest of the park allowed open fires, which I didn’t expect at this time of the year.
We set out fairly soon for Sacred Canyon, which has some Adnyamathanha engravings. The Aboriginal people do not mind that you take photos of it and the canyon is short, making it manageable for families with young children. If you can make it along the serious corrugations to the canyon, it is pretty, interesting and has some great rock formations.
We continued on a short way to Huck’s lookout and Stoke’s Hill lookout, the latter having a short but shocking dirt road. The views were ok, but late light on a cloudy day isn’t the nest for photos (sorry).
We passed some emus on the way back to the campsite. They were everywhere and you need to keep an eye out for them, as they can dash across the road and into your path.
and then on to Blinman, the highest recorded town in South Australia. It has an art gallery, great bakery/coffee shop, pub and excellent public toilets.
From here we headed to Glass and Parachilna Gorges. It was a long stretch that had no water, like most of the Ranges, and you couldn’t help but wonder how beautiful it would be with some rain. Apparently, it had been 18 months since they had had a decent rainfall and the effect was shocking. Gorges that I had been to in years past, with thundering rivers, were dry dust bowls. Campers took advantage of the dry beds and pitched in isolated spots.
Driving towards Brachina Gorge, on good road and with the Ranges to your left, was lovely. Brachina Lookout is interesting, with its geological information repeated as you travel through the gorge, as if through time. But, again, the dry river beds we lunched beside were disappointing. Plenty of campsites here, if you are self-sufficient or only need a toilet.
Returning to Wilpena, I took the walk at the back of the park, to the old Wilpena Station. This is a beautiful path and easy on foot or in a wheelchair, or you can get a lift at the tourist centre, I think, most of the way.
The lookouts were not remarkable and I think the view from the hill at the back of the park is much better and you get plenty of roos.
Day 4: We set off at 8.45 am for St Mary’s Peak, the highest mountain in the range, without intending to climb beyond the shoulder, as the Adnyamathanha people hold the peak as a significant site.
We checked at the tour centre first, as the maps provided weren’t clear, as in which direction to head. There is an easier, level track that is longer but pretty flat, with exposed sections, and an outer track that is fast, steep and difficult.
After a disagreement regarding which marker to follow, we believed that we were on the easy track, and powered on.
The track was picturesque and enjoyable for about an hour and then we got to some very steep climbs requiring vertical scaling of rock walls. We stopped for a bite (thankfully we had the scroggin) and went on and up. Needless to say, we had taken the difficult way and although it was quite quick, we didn’t joyfully anticipate the drops on return.
Taking the longer route back (12 km) took a lot longer than it should have. A mistake in judgement had us travelling with one bottle of water and no sunscreen. The way was flat but very exposed and by now it was midday. The whole trek took us 7 hours, instead of the suggested 6, or less. BIG MISTAKE – please don’t make it.
We stopped at the Hill’s Homestead, built in 1888, and read about Jessie Hill, daughter of the owner. We meandered along the shady path back to camp for a huge rest and an average beer on our return, only venturing to the office to seek WiFi.
Day 5: We went home via Cradock, stopping at Maggie’s Rendezvous in Orroroo for homemade quandong pie (don’t miss it) and to admire their pink ribbon support. Maggies had some quirky table puzzles and nic nacks that kept you distracted while you waited (not that it was a long time). We had lived in Orroroo a short time while doing teacher placement and it is a lovely town, very friendly.
Last stop historic Clare for a bakery vegetarian pasty and then home.
Safe travels. Take plenty of water, a hat and sunscreen. It’s not pleasant if you forget!!
We found this by accident, returning to Kununurra from Wyndham, at the edge of the Kimberley in Western Australia. Seeing the small sign and hoping for a minor miracle or transportation to another time, we arrived at an unremarkable park in the middle of the arid lansdcape. A gorge led off to the left and a series of narrow, steep steps descended to the right. We stood at the top of the stairway, seeing no railings, and considered our options under a very hot Australian sun.
Suddenly, voices preceded the arrival of two adults and two small children. They encouraged us to go down, pointing out that it was isolated and had a wonderful waterhole, so we could skinny dip if we wanted. Well, I wasn’t so sure about the latter, but if two small children could manage the stairs, I could. I’m so glad I did.
It was like something out of an Indiana Jones movie and wasn’t the first slimy pool we’d been tempted to slip into, given high temperatures and an idyllic location. A couple of ‘Tarzan ropes’ (suspended ropes for swinging and dropping) are placed for ease of entry if you are faint-hearted. While we air-dried, we spied tiny honey eater birds, flowers and the signs of a hidden water source.
We answered that it was worth the descent and hurried to our car, taking off as quickly and naturally as we could. Had either of us been alone, or the man not have had innocent intentions…It can happen and any traveller would be wise to pause before heading into an isolated area, no matter how hot you are, or how glorious the view.
If you venture here, I have since learned that the height is 120 m and that after the wet season, a waterfall will drop behind the ropes in the pictures, above, gushing majestically over the rocks. It is a well-known swimming hole and picnic spot in the area.
Tell me if there’s something you want to know about this area or somewhere else in Australia.
Safe travels! Hat, water and a sensible sense of adventure.

All of M.E.O flavours are bottled in 60mL bottles, and are available in 0mg, 3mg, 6mg, and 12mg nicotine strengths.
Planet Jupiter has flavours of Berry Candies and other exotic fruits.
Supporting member of the CVA, MEO Ejuice, a Canadian company, founded by owner Rex Lu, was formed because we saw an opportunity to offer a product that is different, in the fact that our line of liquids is formulated and crafted using ONLY natural flavourings, hand mixed and bottled with the closest attention to detail in small batches with hand written serial numbers on our ECTA approved labeling, in our Clean Room facility based out of UTAH.
Each flavour in our Premium line of liquids goes through months of testing and different styles of steeping to ensure we extract the correct flavour notes in each bottle.
WE ONLY USE TESTED USP KOSHER INGREDIENTS and our facility mixes to the standards of AEMSA, the American E-Liquid Manufacturing Standards Association, while still conforming to ECTA guidelines in Canada.
The way that we calculate our recipes, we calculate the PG that is in the concentrates (depending on concentrate brands, about 80-90% of the concentrate is PG).
In fact, Propylene Glycol in itself is NOT organic, due to being extracted SYNTHETICALLY, however PG is an alcohol from carbs, so in fact does come from organic material.
You will find PG in juices for a few reasons, it is a flavour concentrate carrier, it also provides a "throat hit", but most importantly is, PG IS THE ANTIMICROBIAL PRESERVATIVE in the liquid keeping your bottle from going bad, so we CHOOSE to keep PG in our liquids.
Then, we add the concentrate to the appropriate amount of PG base unflavoured, mix our new PG flavoured base with the correct amount of VG base, to create our fresh batch of liquid! Each flavour is then separated into four smaller batches. A VG based Nic is then appropriately added and left to breathe for 5 hours, before being sealed and steeped in a dark room for approx 2 weeks depending on the flavour.
Vegetable Glycerin is an all natural organic Plant oil that metabolizes into natural sugars,Vegetable Glycerol (or glycerin, glycerine) is a simple polyol compound. It is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid that is widely used in pharmaceutical formulations and approved by the FDA to be WIDELY used in food products.
WHY DO WE USE PG?
Please, grab a bottle and taste the REAL difference in flavouring!

Not ready for Primetime; copping a plea; preying on Puerto Rico; and other highlights of recent tax cases.
Minneapolis: Tax preparer Kenneth Mwase has been sentenced to 121 months in prison for managing and directing a fraudulent prep business.
Mwase, a.k.a. Chatonda Khofi, 54, of St. Paul, Minn., pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to defraud the U.S., one count of aggravated ID theft and one count of failure to appear at sentencing.
In April 2014, Mwase was charged along with Ishmael Kosh, 39, of Philadelphia, Amadou Sangaray, 36, of New York, Francis Saygbay, 43, of Minneapolis, and David Mwangi, 47, of Arlington, Texas, for their involvement with Primetime, a prep business with three storefronts in the Minneapolis area. With his co-defendants Mwase prepared and filed more than 2,000 fraudulent federal individual income tax returns on behalf of clients for 2006, 2007 and 2008. Mwase and his co-defendants also prepared about 1,700 fraudulent income tax returns filed with the State of Minnesota for those years.
In November 2014, Mwase pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to defraud the government and one count of aggravated ID theft. As part of his plea agreement, he admitted overseeing a conspiracy that caused a tax loss exceeding $2.5 million.
Mwase and his co-defendants established Primetime’s flagship location in Brooklyn Center, Minn., in late 2006. They then prepared returns for Primetime’s clients in 2007, 2008 and 2009 that reported false dependents, fake business income and losses, inflated deductions, inflated credits and false filing statuses to inflate refunds.
The defendants maintained control over clients’ federal refunds by instructing that those refunds be sent directly to Primetime. They then caused their prep fee to be directly withdrawn from the refund. When a client came to pick up their refund check or debit card, the defendants sometimes escorted that customer to a check-cashing location or ATM and demanded additional cash.
Mwase was scheduled to be sentenced on Aug. 18, 2016, following the two-week trial of co-defendants Kosh and Sangaray in September 2015, and the guilty plea of co-defendant Saygbay in November 2015. On Aug. 7, 2016, Mwase fled to South Africa using a fake ID and a fraudulently obtained Zimbabwean passport. In April 2017, he was charged with one count of failure to appear for sentencing. With the assistance of federal and international authorities, Mwase was arrested in South Africa in May.
In October, following an extradition request from the U.S., Mwase was surrendered to federal marshals and returned to Minnesota to face sentencing. On Nov. 16, he pleaded guilty to the charge of failing to appear for sentencing. Mwase’s co-conspirators were previously sentenced to prison.
Mwase was also ordered to serve three years of supervised release following his release from prison.
Harrison, N.Y.: Former police officer Anthony Marraccini, 54, has pleaded guilty to tax evasion.
According to the allegations, from 2011 to 2016 Marraccini was the chief of police for the Town of Harrison, owned and operated the construction business Coastal Construction Associates, and was employed as a salesperson for two title companies. In addition, he owned several residential rental properties.
Marraccini reported some of Coastal’s revenue and expenses and the rental income from some of his rental properties on his personal federal income tax return. He failed to report all of Coastal’s revenue on his returns from 2011 through 2016.
Instead, he deposited some checks Coastal received into his personal bank accounts and some he cashed at a check-cashing service and kept the cash for personal use. In some instances, Marraccini deposited Coastal checks into the company’s bank accounts but took portions of the deposits as cash. He then falsely represented to his preparers that Coastal’s account statements showed the vast majority of the company’s revenue for each year.
Marraccini failed to report more than $2.3 million in revenue for Coastal Construction for the tax years 2011 through 2016. He also failed to report more than $199,800 in rents received from two rental homes he owned in Purchase, N.Y., from 2011 through 2015, and failed to report $24,500 in rents he received from a rental home he owned in Rye, N.Y., in 2013 and 2014.
In total, Marraccini failed to report more than $2.5 million in revenue from Coastal Construction and the rental properties, evading more than $782,000 in federal income tax from 2011 through 2016.
Marraccini pleaded guilty to one count of tax evasion, which carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison. Sentencing is May 16.
Pocatello, Idaho: Preparer David Brannum, 55, now of Washougal, Wash., has pleaded guilty to preparing false federal income returns for clients of his business, Dave’s Tax Service.
Brannum pleaded guilty to one count of assisting, advising and counseling clients to submit materially false federal income tax returns to the IRS.
According to court records, from 2003 through 2015 Brannum operated his prep business in Idaho and Nevada and submitted hundreds of federal income tax returns. He often claimed false and fraudulent itemized deductions for his clients, decreasing their tax liability and generating improper refunds. Specifically, Brannum inflated his clients’ charitable contributions and entered amounts for unreimbursed employee expenses that were unsubstantiated, that he inflated or that he knew were not allowable.
In total, Brannum’s criminal conduct resulted in more than $101,000 in tax losses.
Sentencing is April 17. Assisting, advising, and counseling clients to submit materially false federal income tax returns is punishable by up to three years in prison, a term of supervised release of up to one year and a fine of up to $250,000.
Milwaukee: Deily Veras, 33, of Newark, N.J., has been sentenced to 52 months in prison for fraudulently obtaining more than $2.7 million in refund checks.
The sentence followed his guilty plea to theft of government money and aggravated ID theft. Veras was also ordered to pay $2,766,926.15 in restitution to the IRS.
Veras committed his theft by fraudulently obtaining the IDs and Social Security numbers primarily of Puerto Rican residents. (Residents of Puerto Rico are issued Social Security numbers, but are not required to file federal income tax returns or pay federal income tax unless they earn income from sources outside of Puerto Rico.) Veras used the names and Social Security numbers to fraudulently file false returns and receive refund checks. He then took the checks to an individual in Milwaukee for cashing.
IRS agents searched Veras’ home and business in New Jersey and seized evidence of personal ID information of more than 500 individuals, most of whom were Puerto Rican residents.
Columbus, Ga.: Four defendants have pleaded guilty to a scheme defrauding the IRS by using stolen IDs to file returns and obtain refunds.
According to the plea agreements, Erica Wise, 33, Ciourziae Weaver, 27, Linda Weaver, 52, and April Byrd, 40, all of Columbus, conspired to file multiple fraudulent returns from March 2012 to September 2013 under the business name Wise Tax using the names and personal information of real taxpayers, unknown to those victims.
The defendants used four addresses around Columbus to accept a total of 316 fraudulently filed refunds. They deposited the refunds, and further shielded their illegal activity by using stolen IDs as named preparers. None of the preparers had any knowledge of or involvement with the scheme.
The crimes are punishable to a term of imprisonment of up to five years, a fine of up to $250,000, or both, and up to three years of supervised release. Sentencing is April 11.

MelodicRock Records delves back into the archives in June, delivering a blast from the past from respected vocalist JOE CERISANO and the compilation album Joe Cerisano’s Silver Condor ‘Studio Cuts, Rarities and Live Across America’, due out June 22. The 2CD Set is limited to 500 units only.
This two CD set will span his career from the early 80’s through the 2000’s and features an iconic live set from the one and only Silver Condor North American tour in 1981. This is a must have for any fan of Joe’s long and winding career.
"I’m really excited about my new double CD Joe Cerisano’s Silver Condor being released on MelodicRock Records. This new CD captures and documents the truth that Silver Condor was for one brief moment one of the major powerhouse bands of the 80’s. What might have been is alive and well here on this CD. Judge for yourself."
SHIPPING ALL ORDERS THIS MONDAY!
Joe Cerisano is an acclaimed singer, songwriter, and producer who has the distinction of possessing one of the most familiar voices in America. With musical influences as diverse as Elvis Presley, Little Richard, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, and Sam and Dave, Joe developed a singing style that absorbed this wide variety of influences, mixing them with his native West Virginia dialect created a classic and original American singer's voice.
Traveling to the west coast in the early 80’s Joe formed the now legendary California rock band 'Silver Condor' with guitarist Earl Slick (i.e. David Bowie and John Lennon) on Columbia Records. In 1981, Silver Condor released their debut album and had the Top 40 hit "You Could Take My Heart Away." Silver Condor released their sophomore effort "Trouble at Home" in 1983. It boasted an all-star cast including Neal Schon (Journey, Santana), Clarence Clemmons (E Street Band), Waddy Wachtel (Stevie Nicks), Kenny Aaronson (Derringer, Billy Idol) and Steve Plunket (Autograph).
Joe has continued to be a prolific songwriter and is set to release Joe Cerisano’s Silver Condor - “Studio Cuts, Rarities and Live across America”.
After the breakup of Silver Condor Joe headed back East and began his career as one of the most successful studio session singers in America. Singing television and radio commercials for Chrysler/Plymouth, the Army, the Navy, GE, Miller Beer, Coca-Cola and many others, he voiced classics like the Army's "be all you can be" and GE's "we bring good things to life".
He continued to be a sought after singer throughout the 80’s. He performed backing vocals on several albums by Michael Bolton, sang with Ian Hunter and Mick Ronson, was guest as lead vocalist on the Blue Oyster Cult track "Frankenstein" from the ‘Imaginos’ album, sang a duet with Gloria Estefan on the soundtrack Goya: A Life in Song along with Placido Domingo, as well as the feature singer on "Hands Across America".
In the early 1990’s Joe began writing a series of songs that reflected the most important thing in Joe's life (his family). This resulting music evolved to become the album Carbon Copy which was recorded in New York, Nashville, and Joe’s home in New Jersey. It also marked Joe’s return to the stage as a member of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra during their inaugural trek in 1999 through 2004. He was a featured lead vocalist on the 1998 Christmas album, The Christmas Attic.

Kohlrabi is a tasty raw vegetable, but this year’s crop was less than stellar. I can’t totally blame the vegetable. I didn’t thin well enough, and I should have picked when they were smaller. The hot, dry weather we had in August is exactly what kohlrabi does not need. They became hard and bitter, and half the crop ended up on the compost pile. In hindsight, I think that the plant takes up an inordinate amount of space when the edible part is the size of a tennis ball. I will try to plant and use this variety much earlier next year.
We will also try the late variety called Superschmeltz which is supposed to stay tender up to a size of ten pounds and is cold hardy so can be left in the garden right through the winter.
