Denmark s weather is quite mild and the climate of Denmark is temperate, made mild by mostly west winds and by the seas surrounding Denmark almost entirely. The winters are not particularly cold and the summers are mild.
Denmark doesn t have a lot of fluctuation between day and night temperatures, but wind gusts and changes in wind direction can quickly change the weather and temperatures. The wind is stronger in winter.
Denmark s mean temperature in the coldest month (February) is 0°C (32°F), and in the warmest (July) 17°C (63°F). Rain in Denmark comes on a regular basis year-round, there are no true dry periods. The annual rain fall in Denmark averages 61 cm (24 in) of precipitation. Copenhagen has an average of 170 rainy days. The greatest rainfall comes between September and November. Snow is rare. You can also take a look at the current local weather in Denmark s cities.
Because of Denmark s northern location in Europe, the length of the day with sunlight varies greatly. This is typical for Scandinavian There are short days during the winter with sunrise coming around 8 am and sunset 3:30 pm, as well as beautifully long summer days with sunrise at 3:30 am and late sunsets at 10 pm.
The most amazing natural phenomena in Scandinavia can be witnessed in the region of the Arctic circle, e.g. in the Scandinavian countries Norway, Iceland and Sweden. Find out how Scandinavian nature created these phenomena, when and where in Scandinavia they happen, and whether these natural phenomena in Scandinavia can affect your vacation or even your health.
The Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) As the top choice, the Northern Lights are probably the most famous natural occurrance when people think of Scandinavia. Their correct name is Aurora Borealis. We associate the Aurora Borealis with wintertime, although in reality they are present the year round. In Tromso and Finnmark, you can see the Northern Lights every other clear night, if not even more frequently. From southern Norway you can see them a few times each month.
Summer extends from June to August. Winter is from December to March, wet with long periods of frost. February is the coldest month. Spring and autumn are generally mild.
Lightweight for summer and heavyweight for winter snows.

When a voice mail request came in from Connie Steinmetz for a UT quilt start to finish & the price tag did not scare her away, I started thinking who could help. My usual suspects are swamped. Then I knew! I grew up in Tennessee; Dorothy lives in Tennessee; Connie lives in Nashville. So two Tennesseans quilters have volunteered to get crackin' to make a special Christmas present from a TN mom to give her UT daughter.
Nov 20: Got the call. She found me via Joan Taylor's UT quilt posted on this blog.
Nov 21: Dorothy got the fabric. I mailed the pattern--Take 5 by Teacher's Pet--and did an EQ7 rendition with various orange, black and white fabrics. After her day long shopping expedition, I plugged in the real fabrics Dorothy selected (except for the white on black).
Nov 23: Changed black & white fabric. The layout will no doubt change too when Dorothy pieces this. Just showing the process with all its twists and turns and possibilities.
Nov 28: Dorothy tells me she is being plagued with my all too frequent unforeseeable circumstances. Her first choice for white on black fabric made her dizzy. Back to the store, she selected her second white on black. When she started working with it to cut it, she noticed flaws, not in one spot but throughout. Back the store, the whole bolt was that way & of course there wasn't another white on black in the shop that would do. Off to another store, she found the perfect fabric. I can't find it online to post an image but understand it is something like the IQ pattern called Flirtatious. So that remains a surprise for all of us until it gets here.
Nov 29: Read Dorothy's comment. Yeah!
Nov 30: Dorothy is planning to ship this here next week. Need IQ pattern. Any ideas? Connie, I would love for you to pick it out. Call me and I'll guide you through how to do it.
Dec 03: Read Dorothy's comment. The quilt is on the way & Connie is searching this site and others for an IQ pattern she likes. She chose Janet's Swirl Pano 001 by Kim Diamond to which I made a slight change.
Dec 11: Dorothy shipped on Monday the 3rd. USPS routed the quilt through Denver. It arrived safely today. I have been working on two options for IQ patterns, one the Swirls Connie found & one with paisley by the the same designer, Kim Diamond. Kim does a lot of very dense designs. I spent the evening working out a way to use her design without the extreme density. I split the design across two rows so I could enlarge the quilting area. Connie has once again chosen the swirls ("I’m just not a flower girl..." - LOL) & I agree with her. Just had to pursue all options first.
Dec 13: Loading. Quilting. Quilted.
Dec 14: More photos. Boxed. Shipped back to Dorothy for binding.
Dec 15: Dorothy has received the quilt.
Dec 20: Dorothy hand delivered the quilt to Nancy as planned. No pictures of the final quilt with binding...oh well.
Got an email tonight: "I have finally finished a quilt top that I started 14 yrs ago for my youngest son, on dialysis - he's still on dialysis and I would love to give it to him for Christmas."
Hmmm. A phone number and a request for a call was included. I dialed & am so glad I did. A fellow North Carolinian had lost track of time--"Why are they decorating for Christmas?" DUH. Me being me, I extended the invitation I have so often to other NCers to come on up & we'll do it together and you can take it home with you. It is not a big quilt, just nice in fact.
Stay tuned on Monday when we will all meet Gail Burton.
Gail & I worked hard and got this beauty done in a day.
Nov 18: Received the above picture from Gail. We're thinking about using King Tut #10003 Glowing Embers variegated red and black.
Nov 19: Gail is here. We have prepared and loaded the quilt, changed the thread, programmed IQ, basted and started quilting. We are quilting rather densely and are able to do two rows before rolling the quilt. And finished!! Great day, Gail!!
This quilt beautifully pieced by Kristin Minnick features Minnesota fabrics.
Oct 29: Kristin & I began talking about me doing this quilt for her.
Nov 13: Kristin has picked her panto called Deep Woods.
Nov 13-14: Will be using King Tut #902 Stone Age with either Gray, DkBlue or MedBlue bobbins, whichever blends best..
Nov 16: Programming IQ. Kristin has chosen the 50% offset layout.
Nov 17: Preparing to load...loading...basting...quilting. The quilting is going well but I can tell already I will not have enough thread. My 2012 luck has returned once again. I'll keep going as far as I can and then will have to unload due to other commitments. I'll order more thread which will come in early December. Finished two rows. Each takes twice as long as the average row.
Nov 18: Still quilting on hoping for the best. Whew!! Had enough thread after all and this beauty is quilted! Will try for some morning pictures before sealing the box for shipping.
Nov 19: Final pictures are posted!
The fabric is Kate Spain's 12 days of Christmas and the backing is ice skating elves.
Perhaps Nina will share her blog with everyone. Ah yes to her quilts!
Nov 03: Quilt arrived. I'll take better photos later.
Nov 12: Loaded, basted, programmed--i.e. ready to quilt. Nina wants loose density so the quilt will be nice and soft. The IQ pattern was created last year by my sister, Sandy Daugherty.
Nov 13: Quilting. And Quilted. NOW THIS is how all quilts ought to longarm. Totally trouble free! Well, except for one tiny red thread I decided to un-bury from under the top. Posting a lot of pictures because they came out so kool I thought & I couldn't pick between them. What the heck, I'll go totally crazy and show you the editing options I choose from on each picture.
The quilt top pattern is Jelly Filled by Camille Rosekelley. The fabric is Sweet by Urban Chiks for Moda.
Nina wants a meander everywhere except the red border. She wants SID around that. We changed the plan to 1/4 top stitching along the edges.
Oct 29: Nina sent the above photos.
Nov 04: Posted bed photo.
Nov 21: EQ7 & IQ overlays.
Nov 24: Loaded and ready to baste.
Nov 26: Still quilting. At end of day, I am almost finished. Just need to finish the top stitching on the red border. It seemed to be the best plan to finish it all at once after the rest of the quilting was complete. Shifting the side edges back and forth took way more time than I thought but it did the trick nicely, I think. At the bottom, I had to invoke more complicated skills/tricks making the panto fit precisely outside and inside the inner border. I will do something similar to get the top stitching to fit precisely inside the red border.
Nov 28: Finished the top stitching & thus the quilt. Will try for some morning pictures tomorrow.

Frederick Braun, 96, passed away of natural causes on Jan. 9, 2019, at his home in Alameda. Fred was born in Toledo, Ohio, on June 5, 1922, to Ernest and Margaret (Schmitt) Braun. He graduated from Woodward High School in 1940.
Seeking work at the Alameda Naval Air Station (NAS), Fred moved to California in 1943. There he met and married Anne M. McCollum in 1944. They shared 67 years of marriage together before her death in 2012. Together they had four children.
Fred was a veteran of the United States Navy, serving in 1944 and received an honorable medical discharge.
Fred accomplished much in his life. He attended the first industrial engineering training class at the NAS. He went on to develop a revolutionary approach to work measurement. He led an initial team of five who further advanced the system that was ultimately adopted by the Navy, Army, Boeing and United Airlines.
He was well known around Alameda as the man who started the Alameda Penny Market at the Island Auto Movie in 1962. With his wife, he managed the Penny Market until 1994. At the same time he, Anne and son Richard, authentically restored a four-story Victorian-era house on Pacific Avenue. He always said it was the house of his dreams.
He was an avid collector and enjoyed accumulating antique cars and toys, toy trains, historical firearms and military memorabilia.
Fred was predeceased by his parents, wife Anne, brother Bill and son-in-law Monnie. He is survived by his children: J. and wife Beth, Cheryl, Robert, and Richard and partner Christine; four grandchildren: Trevor Braun, Tristan Braun, Ashley Murdock (Ryan), Jillian Kloter (Michael); and two great-grandchildren, Hudson and Lincoln Kloter.
A viewing will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. tomorrow, Friday, Jan. 25, and Saturday, Jan. 26, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Alameda Funeral and Cremation Services Chapel, 1415 Oak St., Alameda. Interment will be private.

The men finished the Marv Frey Invitational in 5th place with a score of 62.33 points, while the women finished the meet tied for 3rd place with a score of 88 points.
There were two school records broken by the women’s team during the meet. Senior Nicole Desens broke the Shot Put record while taking first place in the meet in the event. She broke the record with a throw of 13.20 meters (43’3.75”). Niki also finished in 6th place in the Discus Throw with a throw of 37.19 meters. Also during the meet, junior Lauren Kotas broke the school record in the 3000 Meter Steeplechase with a time of 11:37.16. That time was good enough for third place in the meet. Junior Olivia Kurbs was the other event winner for the women’s team. She won the pole vault with a vault of 3.20 meters, or 10’6”.
Top finishers in the field for the women include freshman Sarah Couperus (8th place; 1.47 meters) in the High Jump; senior Meghan Devine (8th place; 9.91 meters) in the Triple Jump; and freshmen Kristen Sawyer (t-3rd place; 3.05 meters), Julia Schreier (t-3rd place; 3.05 meters), and Mikayla Capestrani (6th place; 3.05 meters) in the Pole Vault.

THE EUROPEANS needed just one match to retain the 2016 Betfair Mosconi Cup as Jayson Shaw had the honor of potting the winning 9 ball as he eased past Mike Dechaine 5-1 to spark wild celebrations at the Alexandra Palace. Team Europe entered the fray carrying a 10-3 lead after dominating the first three days of the competition and they delivered a crushing defeat to an American side that looked out of their depth at times in front of a very vocal 2,000 strong crowd.
Shaw, who came into the event on the back of a run of brilliant form, never looked too comfortable over the first three days. However, he came with some terrific shots to banish Dechaine to the sidelines and secure the European’s seventh consecutive victory.
A delighted Shaw said, “There were a lot of nerves out there but you have to stay calm and take every ball one at a time. It is easy to get hyped up with everyone screaming. It felt pretty good to make the winning 9 ball. I had a pretty good year and had a couple of dreams about making the final 9 ball and it came true.
For Europe it was a case of strength to strength under captain Marcus Chamat. After last year’s 11-7 win at the Tropicana, the emotional Swede fired his team up to further feats at the Alexandra Palace.
“It has been an amazing week; how could you top what happened last year, but this year we came out firing,” said Chamat.
“I used to live in America and I know what these guys are about. They will bounce back, America never gives up but this is probably the best team in the world, ever. I know they are watching in China, in the Philippines, well we will put these guys on a plane and come over.
For once Niels Feijen kept his hands off the MVP trophy as Albin Ouschan’s three doubles wins and a singles win were enough to give the reigning World Champion the trophy in his second Mosconi Cup.
“Before I played last year I had watched the Mosconi Cup for over ten years and always looked up to the people who won the MVP so it is a huge pleasure for me to be here with the MVP award in my hands. It has been a huge year and I am speechless.
The Americans will need to look inwards as they try and regroup for next year. They have now won the Mosconi Cup just once in the past 11 years with bleak prospects for next December in Las Vegas. Shane Van Boening, unequivocally their best player, failed to record a single point, likewise Mike Dechaine who finished second in the year long Mosconi Cup rankings.
Their dejected captain Mark Wilson said, “Complete respect for the professionalism of Team Europe, they played great from start to finish and kept us off balance throughout the week. My five guys never quit, did everything I asked of them all week and I have great pride and respect for my team. I believe in them and we will be back.
The Betfair Mosconi Cup is the annual Europe v USA 9 ball showdown. It runs from Tuesday 6th to Friday 9th December with all sessions getting underway at 18.30 GMT. There are a potential 21 singles and doubles matches with the first team to reach 11 carrying off the famous trophy.
2016 MOSCONI CUP is sponsored Betfair. Rasson Billiards supply the Official Table. The cloth is supplied by Iwan Simonis and the Official Balls are Super Aramith by Saluc. Predator is the Official Cue of the event and Ultimate Team Gear provide all Mosconi Cup apparel.

The latter distribution seems better to me too. I have not had the opportunity to roll up alignments in a long time since I use a stock list of about 110 NPCs. However if I were to do it today, I would go 1: lawful 2-7 neutral 8 chaotic. For dwarves, 1-3 lawful.
Here is why: for men, in order to be lawful or chaotic, they must both declare their intent to themselves and affirmatively act that way, for they are by nature neural.
So it is for the other common kinds except for dwarves who tend toward law.
I like it, well thought out.
This matches what I ended up doing over the years in my games. Pushing "Good/Evil" and alignment off onto Clerics, Monsters, and other "meaningful" beings. Most people are neutral enough that they don't blip on the radar.
In some ways, it matched 4e's "Unaligned" approach.
So while an individual may not have a strong ethos, if they work, farm, craft, etc. they are "lawful", so most Demi-Humans would fall under this.
What about the duality of neutrality?
Some neutrals are just uninterested in a larger point of view and are just trying to get by. But others might be dedicated to NEUTRALITY in "a balance must be maintained" and will actively work against whichever is in the ascendant to maintain that balance.
True, although that's never formally distinguished (rule or status-wise) in OD&D -- or much any other D&D that I'm familiar with. Brainstorming here: I might think to interpret a very high-Wisdom, Neutral character, as being in that latter category.
While OD&D's Men are in all three alignments, it's also interesting to consider which Men are where.
Chaos has 50% of Bandits, Nomads and Buccaneers, and all Brigands/Pirates.
Neutrality has the other 50% and also Berserkers, Cavemen and Mermen.
And then, of course, there's the Castles. Patriarchs are of Law, Evil High Priests of Chaos, and the rest have a 50/50 chance of either being hostile to the adventurers or neutral (note the lack of alignment beyond "not yours").
What should become immediately apparent is that unlike Anderson Law is lacking in Men - in a complete 180 from 3H3L, demihumans like Elves are a better bet! Most of Men are Neutral, with a scant few religious types being of Law and a great number of malcontents of Chaos. Perhaps comparisons can be made to the Gold Dragon?
However, I suspect that most of this is just because OD&D's encounter tables are primarily about setting you up for a fight. The Neutral Bandits are still going to rob you, and the Lawful Dervishes are likely to be played as religious zealots.
As the Implied OD&D Setting posts rightly noted, OD&Dland is filled with jerks and ne'er-do-wells.
I think that's an excellent analysis. Thank you for that!
I've written before that I consider the faeries of Three Hearts and Three Lions to be an excellent model for the elves of early edition D&D (being all fighter-magicians). Whether the acted as the inspiration...or simply influenced... the class is debatable, but I use that as a good indicator that elves are chaotic in nature (certainly they are depicted as such in the 1E MM with a "Chaotic Good" alignment).
With regard to humans, I am rather partial to James Raggi's take in his B/X-based Lamentations of the Flame Princess. I think it's right in line with your THaTL quote and works well with the alignment as "supernatural alliance." In my own games my tendency is to look at alignment more as "personality" with Capital-E Evil being something separate and apart from alignment...though I realize that doesn't jibe 100% with the concept of alignment (certainly not with regard to alignment language).
Elves in Men & Magic are enlisted in both the Law and Neutrality columns.
If we interprete the Alignment system with the wargaming mindset, it could boil down to "which troops can be allied under the same flag?"
So, Neutral elfs could side either with Law or Chaos: Lawful elves are the tolkienian, noldor type. Neutral ones are Anderson's "fair folk" type.
Delta wrote "Now that I look at it closely, this can even be interpreted as compatible with Anderson's view, with regards to the clause, "most of them were so [Lawful] only unconsciously"(which tends to fade in my recollection compared to the other parts)".
Delta, your quasi-normal distribution (1 2-5 6) is rather elegant and in some ways reflects the Sword and Sorcery ethos. However, I believe there is more to Anderson's clause than has been stated. Anderson's notions of Law and Chaos are derived from Medieval philosophy, from its beginning in Plato and Aristotle to its realization in Aquinas. Law or Logos and its relationship to men is a metaphysical rather than a psychological or sociological one. Most men are 'so (Lawful) only unconsciously'; that is to say, they are lawful by nature, but know not their own nature. Alignment then is more philosophical than behavioral. I would pen your table something like 1 Neutral 2-5 Lawful 6 Chaotic. What we glean from this is that Lawful men, are striving with their own nature/logos to be men, Neutrals are men who live by bonds of blood and beasts - half men even, and Chaotics are men wholly subsumed by their lowest appetites. Behavior then is really something secondary to alignment.
This rendering of the table satisfies the demand of the 'weird' underlying Sword and Sorcery and OD&D in that despite reason and artifice derived by culture and civilization, men collectively remain unknown to themselves, caught on the other side of the wall of sleep and perhaps recollecting something that shimmers, haunts or continues to fade.
Well, that's a very interesting philosophical take on the matter. I must admit on this issue that I don't dig much deeper than the pulp authors on it. Thanks for that!
Of course. I mention this as Anderson is part of the S&S revival in the late 20th century and appears rather influential in your consideration of alignment. Philosophically, he threads a narrow passage few if any other pulp writers observed. Though many leverage Neoplatonic language to describe the powers of chaos and darkness, most of the well-known authors of weird fiction regard law as a cleaving to modernity and all of its course/blunt trappings. It is for that reason that Anderson's subtle account of man and the cosmos is exceptional.

The actions of these teams highlight the struggle for female athletes to achieve fair compensation for their efforts, even if that doesn’t mean identical paychecks to their male counterparts. `Fair’ can include even simple items like access to changing rooms, in the case of the Irish players.
With the help John Langel, the same lawyer who helped the soccer team strike its deal, the players sent a letter to the federation outlining their concerns. Lacking leverage to move the effort forward, it failed and the issue was largely dropped – until this year.
Langel also helped the team reach its current agreement before the world championships. This time, a social media hashtag, (hash)BeBoldForChange, helped make the cause an international sensation.
“If anything that we did can inspire anyone – sports, girls, boys, out of sports, whatever – to stand up for what they believe in, I think that’s a huge plus,” team captain Meghan Duggan said.

Private healing sessions are ideal whenever you need to be lifted or supported – physically, emotionally or spiritually. In the same way that you’d turn to a loved one for comfort or support, you can turn to healing. Lots of people find it in times of stress, grief, anxiety and upset – or when Western medicine can’t offer them anything but a pill for their problems.
Energy healing is truly a jack of all trades; it’s your best friend, your mother, your doctor, your counsellor, all rolled into one. It’s at its most powerful when used regularly as a form of maintenance, to stop you from ever getting to a place so bad that you’ve exhausted all the other options.
Even when you can’t actually put your finger on what’s troubling you, or what you’re missing, energy healing will give you exactly the kind of energy and comfort you need on the day that you need it. Tomorrow you might need something different and it will give you that too! It isn’t a cure-all but it will help you to handle life better on a daily basis and to recover more quickly from the curve balls it throws at you, when they inevitably come your way.
If you are actually sick, it will expedite your body’s own natural healing process, by kickstarting its own healing mechanisms and giving it a boost of vital energy.
*Reiki is not a substitute for conventional medicine and works best as a complementary therapy, in conjunction with any treatment you may be receiving from your doctor.
The practitioner will channel energy from the universe into your body, whilst you are lying down fully clothed. Your body will respond and draw it in where it needs it.
It works because everything in the universe is made up of atoms, ourselves included. Think about your body for a second: your brain, nerves, organs, skin, hormones – they’re all just atoms. And atoms are energetic.
We might not be able to feel it in each cell, but every single atom in our body vibrates at a particular frequency, with a certain kind of energy. This frequency can change, depending on how you’re feeling, how healthy you are or even how happy you are.
When we’re well, energy flows easily throughout our bodies, we have a higher vibration and we feel balanced and happy, at our absolute best. But when life’s stresses, strains or illnesses start to creep in – and let’s face it, there’s no way of stopping them when they do! – they can cause energy blockages which play havoc with our minds and bodies. The treatment works by clearing these blockages, restoring the body’s natural energy flow and raising your vibration.
These are just a few of the words that clients use to describe the way Reiki makes them feel. It’s an intensely personal experience, so you may feel one of these things, all of them, or none. You might have an entirely new sensation altogether. But these are some of the most common experiences.
Charged. Like your morning shower is pouring hot, light energy over your entire body. You’ll emerge zinging, inside and out.
Light. Like you’ve been carrying around a backpack full of heavy rocks for weeks, dragging you down. Now take it off, and notice the difference in your body. You can stand straighter, move freely, breathe easily.
Happy. Like someone has found your mind’s ‘off’ switch and flicked it for you. You don’t have to meditate, focus or desperately try to clear your thoughts, they’re just… gone. You feel gloriously empty, yet entirely whole.
If you’ve never had any healing before then an initial 90 minute treatment will be necessary. Imagine that you’re a 7-story house that has never been cleaned…the first session will be intensive, the energetic equivalent of pressure steaming and moving furniture around! An in-depth consultation will prepare you for the session, to ensure you get the most out of the treatment.
It’s recommended that you build on the healing that you’ve started, in order to get the most out of the initial work. A single session may provide temporary relief but the subsequent sessions will provide the lasting impact as your issues are thoroughly cleared through.
It’s often our minds that can’t stop spinning and this causes us the most anxiety and stress. By concentrating predominantly on the head and upper chakras, this treatment will give you a deep sense of peace, calm and clarity, which in turn affects how relaxed the body feels and how the face looks. This is a great pep-up in the middle of the day, so you can return to work refreshed and more productive. By removing the worries and anxieties from your face, it has the added bonus of making you look rejuvenated!
Energy healing doesn’t need to rely on physical touch and therefore can be done remotely. The overall effects of a healing can be easily felt over the phone or on a Skype call. The sessions are shorter and more concentrated than in person, but equally as effective. This is ideal for the infirm or when you are travelling and can’t meet in person.
Energy healing is best used as a maintenance treatment, but starting off with a course of treatments will kick-start your system to restore wellbeing in your body, mind and spirit. We highly recommend 3 sessions to get you to a good place, after which it’s up to you, how you feel and would like to proceed.
Book Here	To be taken within 3 months for maximum effectiveness.
You can expect to see dramatic improvements in your internal and external life if you commit to a longer course of treatment. Healings as part of a regular lifestyle routine are the most effective way to keep yourself feeling your best on a daily basis.
Book Here	To be taken within 6 months for maximum effectiveness.
This is an ideal course to handle difficult periods of stress, particularly within the workplace. Regular headclearing sessions will help you to navigate work and life strains easily, leaving you feeling calm and light in body and mind. A course of three sessions gives a greater opportunity to go deeper with your healing and see longer, lasting results.

There may come a point during your methadone maintenance treatment that you realize it is no longer working. You could also realize that you are taking more methadone than your doctor prescribed. You might even be a methadone addict. Regardless of the reason, you might be thinking that it is time to consider getting off methadone. There are several ways that you can do this safely and comfortably.
You can get off methadone by switching to a less addictive medication.
One way to get off methadone is to switch to a safer and less addictive alternative. There are a variety of medications that you can use as an alternative to methadone.
The most common of these medications are buprenorphine and Suboxone. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, this switch is sometimes problematic when a person is severely addicted to medications such as methadone because buprenorphine acts differently than methadone does.
It is still an option that both controls chronic pain and can help with the withdrawal symptoms. The dose can be adjusted to decrease the symptoms of withdrawal. The National Library of Medicine recommends starting with just buprenorphine and then gradually moving to Suboxone for maintenance.
For those with chronic pain, this is the best method for treating both the chronic pain and avoiding the withdrawal symptoms. To find a treatment center to help you change medications call 800-891-9360. We can help.
Another way to get off methadone is to taper or wean off it. This is only a good solution when you do not suffer from chronic pain or your chronic pain is controlled by another mechanism. In this process a doctor gradually lowers your dose.
Depending on your addiction or methadone use, each time you visit your doctor, the doctor gives you slightly less methadone. This reduces your body’s dependence on the drug gradually and helps you avoid the full impact of methadone withdrawal.
All of these methods are effective for dealing with opiate or methadone withdrawal.
In order to be successful in getting off methadone, you need the right treatment center that offers the programs that you want. For more information on finding a treatment center call 800-891-9360. We can help.

The following Trading Policies and Procedures form part of and are included in the Application and Agreement that has been made with the Barter Business Exchange, Inc. By signing the Barter Business Exchange, Inc. Client Application and Agreement, Client agrees to abide by these Trading Policies and Procedures. The purpose of the following trade rules and regulations is to facilitate trading among Clients by promoting a system of good business practices and understanding of the guidelines set forth for all barter exchanges by the National Association of Trade Exchanges (NATE) and the International Reciprocal Trade Association (IRTA).
NATURE OF THE PARTIES: The "Barter Business Exchange, Inc." hereafter referred to as "BBE", is a trade company that acts as a clearinghouse and third party record keeper of trade transactions among its Clients, which are businesses that contract with BBE to organize and facilitate barter of their goods and/or services with other Clients. "Client" is a business that has contracted with BBE to exchange its goods and/or services with other Clients and wishes to subscribe to BBE's record keeping and barter services. "Barter Broker" is the BBE employee whose function it is to assist Clients in the sale and purchase of goods and services.
NATURE OF BARTER DOLLARS: A "Trade" is a barter purchase or sale of goods and/or services whereby payment is made in barter dollars posted to Client's account pursuant to these Trading Policies and Procedures. A "Barter Dollar" is an accounting unit used to record the value of trades. Ownership of barter dollars denotes the right to receive goods and services available within the BBE trade network. Barter dollars may be used only in the manner and for the purpose set forth in these Trading Policies and Procedures. One barter dollar is equal to one dollar in U.S. currency. Barter dollars will not be considered legal tender, securities, or commodities. Barter dollars may not be redeemed for cash. BBE disclaims responsibility for the negotiability of barter dollars.
DEFINITION OF A CLIENT IN GOOD STANDING: A Client who conducts trades in accordance with these Policies and Procedures, is current in any monies owed to BBE, and has a valid Barter Card, is considered a "Client in Good Standing." Only Clients in Good Standing are entitled to the services of BBE. When a Client has by his or her conduct or misconduct displayed to BBE the inability to meet the standards set in Client's own industry relative to the quality of goods or services, or has been charged with the commission of a crime involving fraud or moral turpitude, or otherwise exhibits to BBE that the Client's reputation in the business community has been diminished, then for the protection of the remaining Clients, BBE reserves the right to restrict the use of Client's barter dollars to purchases only and shall restrict the rights of said Client to sell or advertise Client's goods or services for sale until such time as Client can exhibit to BBE that the standards expected in Client's own industry can be met. Expired debit cards shall remove a Client from being a Client in Good Standing.
$100 REFERRAL BONUS: A referral bonus of one hundred ($100.00) barter dollars will be given to each Client who introduces and refers a new BBE Client. To qualify for the referral bonus, Clients must provide BBE with the following information about the potential Client: company name, owner's name, location, and phone number. Referral bonus is paid to Client when the new Client's Application and Agreement has been accepted and approved by a BBE Officer.
BARTER CARDS: "Barter Cards" are printed plastic cards issued for identification purposes only. Client must have a barter card in order to make a purchase. Barter cards issued to Client's account shall remain the property of BBE and must be returned upon demand. Client is solely responsible for all charges made on barter cards issued to Client's account. BBE is not responsible for use of barter cards by unauthorized persons. The individual signing the Barter Business Exchange, Inc. Trading Policies and Procedures as well as any individual using a barter card personally guarantee any transaction as well as any cash service fees that may have occurred as a result of such transaction. Barter cards are issued to all authorized barter cardholders listed on the Client Application and Agreement free of charge. All requests for additional barter cards must be in writing and signed for by the Client. Additional barter cards for new authorized barter cardholders are free of charge. Clients will be charged a ten ($10.00) dollar cash fee for each replacement barter card.
USE OF TRADE CERTIFICATES (DEBIT CARDS, GIFT CERTIFICATES and SCRIP): The following rules govern the use of Debit Cards, Gift Certificates, and Scrip. Once Trade Certificates are purchased, they cannot and will not be replaced if lost, stolen, or damaged. Trade Certificates should be used as soon as possible after they are purchased, and must be used before their expiration date. All tips, gratuities, and sales taxes must be paid in cash at the point of purchase by the buying client. BBE reserves the right to refuse to sell Trade Certificates to clients who have previously refused to pay the proper taxes and gratuities or have created other problems at restaurants or other selling establishments. BBE is not responsible if a business refuses to accept Trade Certificates and BBE will not make restitution for any cash charges that Client may incur. BBE will not extend expiration dates and/or buy back Trade Certificates that are expired. All disputes concerning the use of a Trade Certificates are between the Client and the business issuing the Trade Certificate, and BBE bears no liability in the event the issuing business refuses to honor the Trade Certificate or ceases to operate the business.
HOUSE ACCOUNTS: "House Accounts" have prearranged the payment of their cash transaction fees with BBE. On the front of the Client's barter card, it will state that the Client has a "PRE-PAID DEBIT CARD”. The trade procedure for both the Selling Client and the Buying Client is the same as a normal trade account. These accounts are used for BBE employees, Client sub-accounts, Clients who are closing their account with BBE, and members of other barter exchanges who are spending within the BBE trade network. BBE reserves the right to deny the sale of a Pre-Paid Debit Card to any person for any reason.
BARTER DOLLAR LOANS: Clients who have a negative barter balance (barter purchases and/or barter fees exceed barter sales) will be charged a monthly barter finance charge of one and a half (1.5%) percent (eighteen [18%] annually). Purchases by Clients must be limited to the amount of barter dollars in the Buying Client's account. Clients wishing to apply for a barter dollar loan may submit an application for approval. Clients grant to BBE the right and power to make barter dollar loans to any Client on terms and conditions consistent with Client's credit worthiness and ability to repay. BBE is under no obligation to extend credit at any time. Clients will be required to compensate BBE in cash on demand for any deficit amount in their barter dollar account resulting from purchases made without sufficient barter dollar balances or without prior barter dollar loan arrangements.
RIGHTS OF BBE AND ITS SHAREHOLDERS: Client recognizes and grants to BBE the right and power to: 1.) Regulate and control the number of outstanding barter dollars with the trade network; 2.) Borrow barter dollars and spend them within the trade network. Such borrowing will be sufficiently collateralized by specifically pledged assets of the system pursuant to the guidelines established and imposed by the International Reciprocal Trade Association.
BROKERAGE FUNCTION: BBE serves in a brokerage capacity by organizing and facilitating trades among Clients. Responsibility for the conduct of a trade is exclusively that of the two Clients participating in the trade. THE DUTY TO INSPECT GOODS AND SERVICES FOR QUALITY AND QUANTITY RESTS UPON THE BUYING CLIENT. Trades are entered into on a voluntary basis between the Clients. BBE assumes no responsibility for the quality, timely delivery, warranty or service being traded. Clients should exercise the same diligence entering into trades as normal cash transactions. Client does hereby indemnify and hold BBE harmless with respect to any claim, debt, or liability whatsoever, arising out of any trade exchange transaction wherein Client is a buyer or a seller.
TRADE DISPUTES: BBE is functioning in a brokerage capacity and as a third party record keeper. BBE is to be held harmless on any liability question arising between Clients. Trade disputes are only between the Buying Client and the Selling Client and shall be settled by the parties themselves. Clients may wish to submit a "Complaint Form" to BBE. A copy of this Complaint Form will be kept in each Client's file and a copy will be mailed to each Client. If BBE receives more than two (2) complaints on a given Client for either poor performance or attempting to charge in excess of Client's normal retail prices, BBE reserves the right to terminate Client's account.
AVAILABILITY OF GOODS AND SERVICES: BBE shall continue to solicit new businesses having goods and services to satisfy the needs of all Clients. BBE is committed to provide only those goods or services actually available in the trade network. Because of high Client demand and short supply, certain goods and services are available on a limited basis only. Requests for these goods and services will be placed on a "Waiting List." Buying Clients are responsible for contacting their Barter Broker if they wish to be placed on the waiting list. Clients with negative barter balances (purchases exceed sales) and/or past due cash fees will be removed from all waiting lists. BBE is not responsible if a Client cannot find specific products or services to buy from the other Clients.
COMMITMENTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES: is only responsible for commitments and representations made in writing by authorized BBE Officers. Barter brokers, agents, or employees of BBE have no right to bind BBE to any obligations or representations whatsoever without such written authorization.

Clients who charge other BBE Clients cash for their products and services who have not notified the BBE Trade Department in writing that their account is “On Hold” prior to sale will be charged a twenty-five (25%) percent cash transaction fee on the total amount of the cash sale.
TAXES: Selling Client shall charge the Buying Client the appropriate sales and excise taxes in cash and collect and record these on the BBE 3-part form at the time of sale. Under no circumstances will BBE be responsible to pay any sales, excise, use or other tax on behalf on any Client. Clients are advised that transactions involving barter dollars are generally treated as taxable events for federal, state, and local tax purposes. The declaration and reporting of all applicable local, state, and federal taxes resulting from trades rest solely with the Client. BBE is required by federal law to obtain the correct Taxpayer Identification Number of Client (who is required by law to provide such number) and to report all trade sales of Client to IRS on Form 1099B. Failure to provide the correct Taxpayer Identification Number may result in the imposition of backup withholding of twenty (20%) percent of the gross proceeds of each sale transaction, under federal law. Client agrees to hold BBE harmless for any actions BBE takes to comply with federal tax laws. Clients should seek professional tax advice.
TIPS AND GRATUITIES: All tips and gratuities shall be paid in cash to the Selling Client at the time of purchase by the Buying Client.
CASH TRANSACTION FEES: Client agrees to pay a twelve and one-half (12.5%) percent cash transaction fee based on the gross value of each purchase as agreed to on the Client Application and Agreement. Cash transaction fees are only charged to Clients when they purchase goods and/or services within the trade network. Selling Clients do not pay a cash transaction fee. An additional two and one-half (2.5%) percent cash transaction fee will be charged on all inter-exchange purchases (purchases made from other barter exchanges). If Client’s cash fees are sixty (60) days past due from issuance of statement, Client grants BBE, at that time, the right to permanently increase the twelve and one-half (12.5%) percent cash transaction fee on all purchases to a fifteen (15%) percent cash transaction fee on all future purchases. BBE may, at its option, require advance payment of Client transactions fees.
WORK-IN-PROGRESS TRADE DEPOSITS: The following procedures apply to trades involving special orders, construction jobs, service work, or long term leases and other work-in-progress transactions.
If the written estimate is more than five hundred ($500.00) barter dollars, Selling Client should obtain a work-in-progress deposit/down-payment in barter dollars in the same non-refundable manner as a cash transaction. This is done with a 3-part form and work-in-progress authorization number. Selling Client must obtain a work-in-progress authorization number from the BBE Trade Department BEFORE THEY START THE TRADE. BBE will only issue a work-in-progress authorization number for the barter amount in the Buying Client's account. BBE will not issue work-in-progress authorization numbers for Buying Clients who are not in good standing. Work-in-progress deposits and down payments are considered normal trades. Clients are required to follow applicable policies and procedures.
Buying Client (Buyer) should contact his or her assigned Barter Broker to discuss all desired purchases. The Barter Broker will give the Buyer a list of available Selling Clients (Sellers) in the BBE network to fulfill the Buyer’s needs. If a Seller is "On Hold", the Buyer may ask to be placed on a waiting list. If the Buyer needs to purchase products and services that are not available, the Buyer should contact his or her Barter Broker to request that BBE recruit new members who do sell the desired products and services.

This specifically applies to homeowners that owe more on their mortgage than the property is worth. Without such a principal reduction the homeowner would not be able to sell the home.

Guansheng Australia Pty Ltd is a Chinese backed developer that is developing a mixed-use building at 311-317 Sussex Street in the Sydney CBD. The development includes a mix of residential apartments on the upper levels, student accommodation on levels 1 to 12 and the provision of 2 levels of basement car parking.
Prior to engaging Root Partnerships, the Client had tried on two separate occasions to achieve development consent through the City of Sydney, however each of these applications were deemed to have a number of non-compliances which could not be overcome without a wholesale redesign.
Given the circumstances surrounding the lack of approval through Council, Root Partnerships are acutely aware that the Client must succeed in their third attempt. As a result, our approach has been to firstly re-assess the feasibility of the current development mix and area schedule in order to understand if there is a significant financial return achieved by the original schemes which exceeded the height restrictions under the Council Development Control Plan, or whether there is an alternative development mix that could “de-risk” the planning approach, but still achieve the required return on investment. This high-level feasibility then set out how the project would be re-briefed to an Architect and Consultant team and will allow the project to proceed with a level of confidence.
The project Development Application was submitted in June 2018 and was subsequently approved by the City of Sydney in December 2018.
Root Partnerships has since been engaged to deliver the project under a design and construct contract methodology.

After days and days of eating at restaurants, picking up snacks here and there, or making a meal out of shredded wheat, I finally cooked dinner tonight. A real, from scratch, delicious dinner. And guess what it was? Soup, of course!
I was a bit disappointed with my first spoonful of this soup…I thought it was a bit bland. But after it cooled a little (meaning that I wasn’t burning my mouth anymore), all the flavors came through…roasted red bell peppers, corn, cilantro…the flavor was both delicate and complex. I spooned in a few chunks of avocado for good measure, and I have to say that the soup was fantastic…brothy and smooth. I also liked the tortilla strips. I usually spray tortilla strips with cooking spray, then pop them in the oven for a bit, but brushing them with oil and cooking them on the stove resulted in beautiful, golden, separated bits of crunchy-chewy tortilla.
Place everything in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Partially cover, lower heat to a simmer, and cook gently for about 30 minutes.
Heat the oil in a soup pot. Add the onion, chiles, garlic, and salt, and saute for about 5 minutes over medium heat. Turn the heat down, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until all the vegetables are very tender.
Place the roasted bell peppers and the tomatoes in a blender or food processor with about 2 cups of the stock. (It’s all right if some of the vegetables from the stock get in there, too.) Puree until smooth, then add this to the onion mixture. Strain in the rest of the stock, pressing every last bit of liquid from the cooked vegetables.
Add lime juice; taste to correct salt and add a little cayenne or a very small amount of minced chipotles, if desired. Serve hot, topped witha generous handful of tortilla strips.
Set a medium-sized, heavy skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, lightly brush both sides of each tortilla with oil. Cut the tortillas in half, then cut each half into thin strips.
Place the strips in the hot pan. Cook and stir gently for about 5 minutes, or until they are chewy-crisp. Remove from heat, drain on paper towels, and salt lightly.

Sis, I hope you’re feeling better…and guys, it was definitely tasty!

Tonight, as a Succot celebration here in Shiloh, I heard a talk about the Third Temple.
It took place in a neighbor's large succah.
Considering that even today, after seventy 70 years of the State of Israel, which bli eyin haraa, seems stronger and more stable and successful than ever, many Jews still have trouble accepting this reality, talk of the measurements of the Third Temple may seem a bit "premature." But as I listened I thought of how just barely a hundred and fifty years ago, the vast majority of Jews couldn't fathom the idea that there would be a Jewish State. They thought that Theodor Herzl and other early Zionists were totally daft.
I kept thinking of this famous quotation from Theodor Herzl as I listened to a very detailed explanation of dimensions of the yet unbuilt Holy Temple. Gd willing we won't need to wait much longer to liberate the Temple Mount and build the Third Temple.

Journalist Sali Hughes and beauty PR Jo Jones are behind the charitable initiative.
Between our obsession with Huda Beauty highlighter palettes, our endless stash of hair smoothing serums and the colour coded mass of rainbow nail varnishes that's housed in its own Muji perspex stack, it's easy to lose track of just how many beauty products we rely on everyday to preen ourselves to perfection.
But what if your financial situation was so dire you couldn't even afford the most basic of hygiene items? Forget fourteen-part eyeshadow palettes, we're talking about deodorant, shower gel, toothpaste, tampons - the essentials you need to simply wash yourself, that we take for granted everyday.
Most of us are lucky enough to live safe in the knowledge that we have the beauty products to hand to help ourselves feel presentable, confident and, at its most fundamental level, human.
So it seems unimaginable that for the 13 million people living below the poverty line in the UK, living without access to the most basic of hygiene amenities isn't just a stat, it's a reality.
With a report by In Kind revealing that 37% of people in the UK have had to go without essential toiletries due to lack of funds, something needed to be done.
Enter the brainchild of beauty journalist Sali Hughes and PR Director Jo Jones - Beauty Banks.
A non-profit initiative that aims to provide basic hygiene and grooming toiletries alongside existing food and clothing banks across five locations in the UK, Beauty Banks aims to make the issue of having to choose between food and simply brushing your teeth, a thing of the past.
'Some people don't have enough money to survive, so what's going to go? The thing that you don't need to stay alive. But I don't think having clean teeth is a luxury. Having clean hair isn't being spoiled - in 2018, in Britain, it's a right', co-founder Sali Hughes told the BBC.
The Beauty Banks locations so far include a women's refuge and a food bank in Staines, a homeless shelter in Cardiff, and food banks in Milton Keynes and Ladbroke Grove.
There will be so many ways for everyone to help @the_beauty_banks in the coming months, but right now, if you’re a beauty or toiletries brand, a retailer, or a beauty and toiletries PR executive or agency, and are keen to help, please email this address. We would love to hear from you. Beauty Banks: providing products and essential toiletries to people living in serious poverty in the U.K.
Whether the old bubble bath set your in laws misguidedly gave your for Christmas, hotel minis, or popping an extra pack of tampons in your trolley, if the products are unused, then the Beauty Banks want them.
To abide by health and safety rules, all products donated must be unopened. So leave that lid on!
Nail varnish, nail varnish remover and perfume contain solvents so keep these for yourself.
Monetary donations are a no as Beauty Banks is a non-profit venture, but if posting products is a bit old school for you then skip the middle man and purchase toiletries direct from their Amazon wish list. They'll get sent directly to the Beauty Banks HQ and passed on to the selected location.
