Lisbon, Barcelona, Milan and other cities discuss the future of urban parking
On 6 October 2021, POLIS and the European Parking Association (EPA) kicked off their joint webinar series discussing the future of urban parking.
Urban mobility is at a critical juncture. As urban transport shifts towards active travel, public transport and e-mobility, parking must not just respond to these changes, but facilitate these cleaner, smarter modes of travel. The parking sector has the knowledge, experience and technology to deliver.
This first webinar, "On-street and kerbside vehicle management: Parking as a tool enabling the transition to sustainable urban mobility" which drew over 200 registrations, brought together viewers from cities, industry partners and other stakeholders. It heard from cities across Europe about how they are adapting parking strategies for emissions reduction targets, the rise of e-mobility and active travel, as well as responding to pandemic induced travel shifts.
This webinar explored the solutions. From Lisbon to Oxford, cities discussed parking solutions for cars and delivery vans, as well as the setup of EV charging services, access management, permits, seamless payment… and more!
“Parking and curbside management are intimately linked to logistics, multimodal travel, ITS and many more aspects of urban mobility”, said Laurence A. Bannerman president of the EPA.
“With these webinars we examine parking as an important tool for reaching mobility and climate goals, as we have seen, it is important to integrate new and smart solutions.”
The webinar kicked off with a presentation from the city of Lisbon, a POLIS member and multiple EPA Parking Award candidate and winner. Parking is a critical issue for the Portuguese capital, with 370,000 vehicles entering city everyday and 200,000 residents’ vehicles, accommodating private vehicles requires flexible and smart solutions.
Although active travel and public transport use is growing, 46% of journeys continue to be completed using private vehicle.
“Parking must be fully articulated within the city’s mobility system,” said Óscar Rodrigues from Lisbon.
Lisbon is pursuing real-time information about on-street and off-street parking as well as new parking adjacent to public transport hubs, in order to encourage multi-modal travel, and chase the city’s goal of 66% of travel via alternative modes. Like many cities, Lisbon has also adapted parking for different uses such as seating- creating flexible and attractive urban spaces.
It is not just private cars which new parking systems will serve. The city is also establishing bike parking below and underground to facilitate the growth in cycle transit.
To demonstrate Lisbon’s dramatic change in parking infrastructure, Mr Rodrigues displayed images of the capital’s main squares; once parking lots, now beautiful pedestrianised areas- with car parking moved centrally under ground and further away from the city centre.
Barcelona, another EPA Parking Award winner, also joined the webinar to outline how the city is establishing a new roadmap for vehicle parking.
The POLIS member city is one of the densest cities in Europe, therefore it is critical to manage last mile distribution in order to mitigate congestion and air pollution.
The city’s Last Mile strategic approach takes into account logistics, public space, sustainability and other values, trialling new solutions through a range of pilots.
“Our parking spaces are used by a range of individuals from delivery drivers to service providers and residents,” said Daniel Aicart, Head of Strategic Planning and Analysis
New parking solutions are being constructed around changes in mobility and freight patterns including electric vehicles, micro platforms and pick-up points and lockers.
These new models have required creation of robust and transparent relationships between industry and local authorities.
“It is important to have a clear roadmap, and build consensus along the way,” said Aicart.
Milan ATM are on a mission to move parking from the end of a travellers’ journey… to the start!
“We are looking to move to a new paradigm, where parking is not static, but flexible, using urban space in different way” said Roberto Carreri, Research, Development and Digital Innovation Manager at ATM, the public transport company for Milan.
The organisation transports 800 million passengers per year, across 95 municipalities.
Data analysis and digitalisation is at the heart of Milan’s integrated mobility ecosystem. Ensuring parking responds to user needs, demand and predictive analysis is essential, creating more effective, convenient, easy, fast and efficient services that saves time and money.
“Digital transformations are driving new parking solutions,” said Carreri.
Milan is currently using a range of parking monitoring devices, including cameras which are able to scan parking permits in real time, while Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is integrating payments onto mobile applications.
The historic city of Oxford is also seeking to implement new parking solutions to deter congestion created by commuter and tourist traffic. The city attracts 7-million day‑time and staying visitors per year, generating £780 million of income for local Oxford businesses; however, this led to rising traffic flows into the city- with around 38,000 vehicles travelling along the arterial routes into the City centre each day.
The city is launching a trial of a National Parking Platform (NPP) based on the Alliance for Parking Data Standards, a publicly owned, not for profit, national facility that enables parking operators (public or private) to communicate digitally with Service Providers.
The platform is designed to aggregate information about parking space availability provided by car park operators and local authorities.
Operators will be able to digitise compliance monitoring without the need for local digital infrastructure, as well as publicise occupancy in real time, while service providers will be able to Pay Operators for parking without the need for a contract with each one.
“This will benefit the council, it will bring a shift towards cashless payments across the county, as well as better service for the user,” said Emma Liptrot, Deputy Civil Enforcement Manager at Oxford City Council.
The webinar then travelled to another UK city, Colchester. The city is preparing to adapt their parking infrastructure in response to pandemic induced changes in mobility and structural limitations created by the city’s Roman urban geography.
Colchester expanded its cycle lanes during the pandemic, which link railway stations, the city centre and key services.
“The pandemic may have changed the way we work forever,” said Richard Walker. “So, we are looking for new ways to use these spaces.
Colchester is currently trialling ‘Park Active’, a scheme, developed by the British Parking Association, which is replacing road space with cycle parking, responding to the rapid rise in cycling in the UK- which rose by almost 50% during the pandemic.
The city has not stopped here, parking is continually evolving.
“We are continually expanding our bicycle, scooter and pedestrian infrastructure, as well as implementing lockers, to allow people to shop in the town centre, without requiring parking within close proximity,” said Walker.
The final presentation came from the Polish city of Krakow, one of the cities involved in the Park4SUMP project.
Car travel accounts for almost 40% of transit in the city, however, the city is working to shift this modal share.
Krakow is working on metropolitan SUMP with its 15 municipalities, which addresses transport policy, parking and an Integrated Transport Plan.
The city’s new parking program looks to integrate transit modes and open up public space, while continuing to meet demand.
The program has needed to overcome a range of challenges, including lack of agreement with shopping centre managements and delays in park and ride investments; however, the city is now reviewing the parking plans to ensure parking enabled active travel and moves towards increased use of off street solutions.
- Integrated urban mobility strategies are the responsibility of the local authorities and a key enabler is the vehicle parking management activity.
- Engage citizens in the parking process: Smart and flexible parking solutions are required, but in order to encourage compliance, citizens need to be engaged in the establishment of this infrastructural change..
- Digitisation is essential: To create fast and flexible parking, online payments and real time monitoring, digital platforms and data management is key.
- Manging tourist traffic: As tourists begin to flock to city’s again, visitor parking must be managed effectively, combined with encouraging use of active travel and public transport.
- Accommodating electric vehicles: e-mobility is on the rise, prompting a need for rapid changes in on-street charging facilities. Cities are currently rolling out fast charging on street, while reserving off-street spaces for slower charging.
- Communication: communicating changes in parking are key to ensuring users understand new uses of space and payment methods. This requires use of signage, social media, websites and other digital and physical channels.
- Continuing to accommodate vulnerable travellers: As parking is moved away from urban centres and payment is digitalised, disabled drivers and others, must continue to have their needs served.
About the webinar series:
POLIS and the EPA work closely together, particularly on Park4SUMP, a European project which brings together 16 cities, working on new methods for parking and integrating parking within sustainable urban mobility policies.
The webinar also follows from POLIS’ Parking Working Group, which facilitates coordination between authorities and professionals in charge of parking policy, on-street and off-street, public and private, and urban planning.
The EPA-POLIS 2021/22 series of webinars will continue over the next few months and will be presenting state of the art solutions where the accent will be on the operational, environmental and economic opportunities that are generated by integrated vehicle parking management.

The Interact Club, a part of the local Rotary Club and Rotaract Club, hosted their November meeting by having member Sandra Sacco speak.
Sacco, a member of the local Rotary Club, spoke about a new up-and-coming project that will involve Starr’s Mill High School.
“This is called the Rotary Youth Exchange Program. Each year over 10,000 students participate world wide,” Sacco said. “It is a language and cultural experience, and it is through the efforts of Rotary Club.”
Starting next year, students under the age of 17 will be able to go and stay in a different country for a year as a foreign exchange student. The students should currently be in 8th, 9th, or 10th grade. The Rotary Club will be sponsoring these students to go to a country for a year for a cultural experience.
The Rotary Youth Exchange Program will host a three-year program for applicants who are chosen. They will assist with foreign language training throughout the year that the applicants are at home. The Rotary Club will also help the student with cultural awareness throughout the year that they are at home. Then they will send the students to the country that they picked for a year.
When they return to the U.S., applicants are required to complete a year of service projects with the Rotary Club.
Although the application process does not start until October 2020, the Rotary Club would like to start identifying applicants. Students and parents who would like more information can contact Sandra Sacco at [email protected]. Students wanting to apply for this new opportunity, should talk with their guidance counselor.

If someone penned a biography of me, it would be called “Pro Wrestling and Horror Movies.” Okay, maybe it would have a more clever title, but you get the idea. Someone who linked those two geek subgenres was “Rowdy” Roddy Piper. I was 5 years old when I watched Piper defeated Adrian Adonis at Wrestlemania III in what was billed as his last match. So a year later, when I saw Piper was the star of a movie, I needed to see it. The film was John Carpenter‘s They Live, a sci-fi action thriller that to a young kid, was about ugly aliens and CURSING! As I’ve gotten older, They Live has grown into an outright cult classic, with themes much deeper than my 6-year old brain could understand. And with the unfortunate and untimely passing of Roddy Piper on Friday, at the age of 61 from cardiac arrest, it assures They Live will live on forever, for both pro-wrestling and horror movie fans.
Rather than write a review of a near 20-year old film, let me simply point out some of the reasons They Live earned its cult status:
“Rowdy” Roddy Piper – Say what you want about wrestlers as actors, but casting a wrestler gives your movie an automatic fanbase. Few stars of the 80s were as popular as Roddy Piper. He was the number one antagonist to superhero babyface Hulk Hogan, and left as a hero himself off to conquer Hollywood. Piper was cast for his physique, which wasn’t much compared to the Hogans and Andre the Giants of pro-wrestling, but was huge for an average man. His charisma in wrestling made him one of the best talkers in the sport, which allowed Carpenter to trust him to deliver lines and even ad-lib classics like, “I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I’m all out of bubblegum!” He and co-star Keith David were also given the freedom to choreograph their epic fight scene, where they actually have a WWF-style brawl in an alleyway for over 5 full minutes!
Carpenter’s directorial touches and score – When you’re a filmmaker who lives within a specific genre, you have to know your audience. Few know their fans better than Carpenter, who could do no wrong from the late 70s throughout the 80s. His anti-establishment themes and reliance on anti-heroes, touched a chord with horror fans in the 80s. We rooted harder for these underdog characters, like Snake Plissken in Escape From New York, and Roddy Piper’s Nada in They Live. His simple scores paced each film and kept the tension at a pitch.
They Live is an awesome movie. Roddy Piper gives a classic performance, hitting the character perfectly. His unnamed (until the credits) drifter is quiet and reserved, until faced with the craziness of being woken up to the truths around him. Piper spun They Live into a long and successful career in B-movies, mostly in the sci-fi and horror genres. Roddy Piper may be gone. But his passing will ensure that They Live, lives forever.
They Live is available on Blu-ray and DVD, and on Amazon Prime for a $2.99 rental.

It's now possible to install Kelvin and Hue to be available for all Creative Force Users, irrespective of them having a dedicated user account on the workstation.
Local user - The user that is logged in to the workstation.
Creative Force user - The user that has been created via Creative Force.
Before you get started, please be aware:
Administrator permission is required to install and update the apps for all local users
Each local user can log in to all different Creative Force users as long as they have the user credentials.
The applications will be installed on the workstation for all local users to use.
How to move from a single local user to all local user installation
Firstly, and to avoid data conflicts, please uninstall all instances of the apps for all local users on the workstation.
Install the latest app versions, ensuring you select the 'install for all users on this computer' option. Download the latest versions here.
Following the installation, please restart the app and log in.
New Workspace logic
The workspace folder is now related to the local user, not the Creative Force user. Each local user will have one workspace folder which contains the data for all Creative Force users who access the apps via that local user.
All users installation: You are installing the app for all users on a computer. After using this mode, all users on this computer will use the same version of the app. And this installation mode will require the Administrator's permission for both installing and updating processes. This action will be applied to all users on the machine.
Per-user installation: You are installing the app only for the current user. Other users on this computer cannot find and run the app. This installation mode will not require the Administrator's permission for both installing and updating processes. This action will only apply to the current user.
When you log in as a non-admin user, you can install Kelvin/HUE per user. But, you can still install the app for all users (this installation will require the Administrator's permission as normal). This logic will apply to both Windows and macOS.

By Fran Yanor / Legislative Reporter
The first COVID-19 vaccinations will begin in two healthcare facilities in the Lower Mainland this morning and expand to nine locations across the province, including the north, next week.
“This is momentous news,” said Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry yesterday. “The first step in our path to protecting people most at risk in our communities and taking the pressure off our health care system.”
The initial batch of 3,900 Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine doses will be administered, by appointment only, to long-term care, acute care and ICU healthcare workers this week.
“I’m going to be at the clinic tomorrow,” said Henry. “I’m really looking forward to seeing the first vaccines go into the arms of healthcare workers here in B.C.”
Additional vaccine will arrive next week and be distributed to nine clinics across B.C., with new vaccine shipments expected every week following.
Because of stringent storage and transportation requirements for the Pfizer vaccine, including -70 C storage conditions, the company won’t allow transportation of the doses until B.C.’s system is tested and proven reliable.
“It’s a very delicate vaccine, it’s very unstable once it’s been thawed, and has to be used within a very short period of time,” said Henry. “So those logistical constraints make it challenging.”
The Moderna vaccine, expected to arrive as early as next week, is more easily transportable, requiring only refrigeration.
“As soon as one or the other is available, we’ll be looking at how we can move it out to long-term care homes rapidly,” said Henry.
Public health officials estimate that long-term care residents, healthcare workers in long-term care, acute care, ICUs, and those people at highest risk of developing severe illness from COVID-19 (about 400,000 people) will be vaccinated by the end of March.
“I can’t tell you how exciting this is,” she said. “We are going to be saving lives with every single dose.”
Despite the good news, British Columbians shouldn’t relax yet as it will be many months before enough people are vaccinated and the risk of viral transmission is minimized to the point where all pandemic-related public health orders can be relaxed.
However, Henry has hinted that she hopes 2021 will be a great summer.
Meanwhile, on a slight upside, the most recent public health orders restricting travel and social gatherings – in place for several weeks in Fraser and Vancouver Coastal, and nearly two weeks elsewhere in the province – have begun showing some effect.
Curve flattened, not declined
“We have flattened out at a fairly high level,” said Henry.
New diagnoses in B.C. have held fairly steady between about 650 and 750 new cases a day for the past two weeks. In the north, new cases have ranged in the 30s and 40s during most of December, plummeting to the single digits the past two days.
During this time, contact tracing has revealed a “steep decline” in infections related to large gatherings, but ongoing transmission in close environments, such as between workers, in households, and at small social get togethers, Henry said.
“That small dinner party where you pass it on to four or five people, then they may go to work and pass it on to, inadvertently, two people at work,” Henry said. “Even small gatherings are risky.”
In the past week or more, cases have dipped a bit in Vancouver Coastal, Fraser and Vancouver Island. Only the Interior seems on an upswing.
Part of the upsurge of cases in Interior Health is related to celebration parties and festive gatherings involving large groups of people in shared accommodations together, Henry said.
Despite the quasi-good news on a flatlining of new cases, hospitalizations and deaths have been rising since the end of October.
On Dec. 14, there were 46 people in hospital in Northern Health with 18 of those people in critical care or ICU. Provincially, on the same day, 359 people were in hospital, including 87 people in ICU. Whereas, on Oct. 30, 90 British Columbians were in hospital.
In the past month, more than 350 people have died of COVID-19 in B.C., more than had died the prior nine months combined. In the north, 12 people have died of COVID-19 since the pandemic began.
“My biggest fear right now is that we’re not going to do enough,” said Henry.
Her worry is, being so close to the finish line, people will relax too early. Additional people will get unnecessarily exposed. Some will become gravely ill and go to hospital, and more people will die.
“I’m emotional every time I think about it,” she said.

Proofreading for International Students
Studying in a foreign country is a life-changing experience that opens doors to a world of opportunities. International students not only face the challenge of adapting to a new culture and education system but also the language barrier. One key aspect that often gets underestimated is the importance of proofreading for international students. In this post, we will explore why proofreading is a valuable skill and service for international students and how it can significantly impact their academic and professional success.
- Overcoming Language Barriers
One of the most significant challenges for international students is the language barrier. While they may be proficient in English, it’s not uncommon to encounter difficulties with grammar, sentence structure, and vocabulary usage. Proofreading provides a crucial bridge between their ideas and effective communication.
When international students take the time to proofread their assignments, essays, and research papers, they can catch and correct language errors that might otherwise distract from their message. This process ensures their ideas are presented clearly and effectively, allowing them to showcase their knowledge and skills more accurately.
- Boosting Academic Performance
Academic success is often the primary goal for international students. Proofreading plays a pivotal role in achieving this. Professors and instructors in English-speaking countries place high importance on the quality of written assignments. Careless errors can lead to lower grades, regardless of the depth of knowledge in the subject matter.
By investing in proofreading services or developing their proofreading skills, international students can significantly improve their academic performance. Correctly written assignments are not only easier to read but also demonstrate a higher level of professionalism and dedication to the subject.
- Enhancing Professional Communication
Beyond academia, the ability to communicate effectively in a professional context is vital for international students. This includes writing clear and error-free emails, reports, cover letters, and resumes. Any language errors in these documents can create a negative impression and hinder career opportunities.
Proofreading helps international students refine their professional communication skills. It ensures that their messages are concise, polished, and free from language mistakes. This, in turn, increases their chances of securing internships, job interviews, and ultimately, their dream careers.
- Gaining Confidence
International students often grapple with self-doubt when faced with the linguistic challenges of studying abroad. The fear of making mistakes can undermine their confidence and hinder their progress. Proofreading empowers them to take control of their written communication, gradually building confidence in their language skills.
When international students see their writing improve over time, they gain confidence not only in their academic abilities but also in their everyday interactions. This newfound confidence can lead to better social integration and more enriching experiences during their time abroad.
Proofreading is an essential skill and service that can greatly benefit international students. It helps them overcome language barriers, boost academic performance, enhance professional communication, and gain confidence in their abilities. By recognizing the importance of proofreading and actively seeking ways to improve their written communication, international students can unlock the full potential of their education and future career prospects. Whether through self-proofreading or professional assistance, the investment in honing this skill is a crucial step towards success on the global stage.

title: Viola

text:
Viola, commonly known as pansies or violets, are charming and colourful flowering plants that thrive in cool weather. Follow this comprehensive planting guide to ensure successful establishment and abundant blooms of your Viola plants.
Choose the Right Location
Sun Exposure: Violas prefer partial to full sun. In warmer climates, partial shade in the afternoon helps protect them from excessive heat.
Well-Drained Soil: Plant Violas in well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH.
Autumn or Early Spring: Violas thrive in cool weather. Plant them in the autumn for winter and early spring blooms or in early spring for a burst of colour.
Adequate Spacing: Space Viola plants 6 to 8 inches apart. This ensures proper airflow, prevents overcrowding, and promotes healthy growth.
Proper Depth: Plant Violas at the same depth they were in the nursery containers. Ensure the crown is at or slightly above the soil level.
Consistent Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells. Violas prefer evenly moist soil but avoid waterlogged conditions.
Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the plants to retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weeds.
Balanced Fertiliser: Use a balanced, all-purpose fertiliser at planting time. For established plants, feed them with a slow-release fertiliser in early spring.
Regular Removal of Spent Blooms: Deadhead faded flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming and maintain a tidy appearance.
Pest and Disease Management
Vigilant Monitoring: Regularly inspect plants for pests like aphids or snails. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or organic remedies.
Good Air Circulation: Proper spacing and adequate ventilation help prevent fungal diseases. Avoid overhead watering.
Trimming Leggy Growth: If Violas become leggy, trim back the stems by a third. This encourages bushier growth and more flower production.
Cold Protection: In colder climates, provide extra mulch around the base of Violas to protect them during winter. Container-grown Violas may need additional insulation.
Observation and Adjustments
Regular Inspection: Keep an eye on your Viola plants throughout the growing season. Adjust care practices based on observations of their health and performance.
By following this planting guide, you can establish and maintain healthy and vibrant Viola plants, bringing a burst of colour to your garden during the cooler seasons.

Episode 165 - Sandile ambushes a British column, Captain Bambrick’s skull and Somerset’s humiliation
Tola had hacked off a prisoners hand to free Tsili from his shackles, the prisoner was thrown into a nearby river and died. The British demanded Tstili and Tola be handed over but imiDange chief Nkosi Bhotomane refused.
Rharhabe chief Sandile was approached but he’d had enough of the English authorities, and refused to hand over the two. This was ostensibly what set off the War of the Axe, or the War of the Bounday as the amaXhosa called it.
Maitland declared war on April 1st 1846 and lieutenant Governor John Hare launched their preemptive strike into Xhosaland. It took almost two weeks to assemble the troops while the Governor issued orders for all missionaries to leave emaXhoseni.
Many white traders had already been killed by this time, the rest scattered from Xhosa territory.
On the 11th April Colonel Somerset led three columns across the Great Fish River, then the Keiskamma. He was heading towards Sandile’s Great Place alongside Burnshill — the abandoned Glasgow missionary society’s station on the slopes of the Amathola mountains. That’s east of where the town of Alice is today.
The British were advancing in classic British style, 125 wagons each drawn by 24 oxen, a five kilometer long column of men. The Dragoons were mounted on their heavy chargers, dressed in red tunics and their blue forage caps, the Cape Mounted Rifles on their smaller Boer ponies, dressed in green tunics and brown breeches, blending into the countryside.
The infantry marched behind, dressed in scarlet jackets with white cross belts and white trousers and their cylindrical hats, called Albert Shakos that tapered to protect against the sun. You can imagine the scene, hundreds of troops on horseback and marching, the dust lifted off the trail, and very soon, the infantry began to discard their thick red coats.
These soldiers began this war dressed like they dressed for a European battle, by the end, they would all look very different. They replaced these Albert Shakos with forage caps, or large Boer hats, they ditched their heavy backpacks for much lighter knapsacks, and they put away their leather collars.
Somerset was pleasantly surprised to find no amaXhosa warrior in his way as his force arrived at Burnshill. After setting up camp there and leaving the wagons under Major John Gibson, he marched off into the Amathole valley on the 16th April, leading 500 men.
Watching him were thousands of amaNGqika warriors, many armed with muskets. They began peppering the British with heavy albeit inaccurate fire.
Maqoma was a highly experienced commander and recognized the British had a major weakness. Their baggage train. It was under his prompting that the other Xhosa commanders agreed to strike the wagons rather than aiming at the infantry. IN the late afternoon of the 16th as Somerset was toiling in the Amathola valley the Xhosa made their move.


title: Custody

text:
When a domestic violence complaint is filed, a judge will consider the testimony of the alleged victim and determine whether there is a sufficient basis to enter a Temporary Restraining Order. This hearing is conducted without the presence of the defendant and usually without notice to the defendant. When a Temporary Restraining Order is issued, a final hearing, with the presentation of witnesses and evidence, is scheduled within ten days. Defendants are given a copy of the Temporary Restraining Order and there is no discovery prior to the hearing. Thus, important rights can be affected in a very short time period and in many cases, parties are not properly advised when appearing before the Court.
New Jersey’s Domestic Violence Statute defines the various criminal offenses which constitute an act of domestic violence. Acts of assault, stalking, burglary, terroristic threats and criminal trespassing are fairly well defined by this State’s criminal code. Yet, by far, the most often asserted basis for litigated domestic violence matters involve complaints of “harassment”. Although N.J.S.A. 2C: 33-4 provides three alternate definitions of harassment, each of these definitions contain ambiguous descriptions which often lead to subjective interpretations and inconsistent results.
According to the Statute, “harassment” is an offense if a person acts with “purpose to harass another”. This means that in determining whether an act of harassment has occurred, New Jersey Courts must determine what was the intent of the actor. The problem is that one party’s intent may be to intimidate and seriously annoy, while another party’s intent may be a reaction to the stresses of marital discord or conduct that is commonly exhibited by both parties.
Further, one of the subsections of the Statute defines harassment as a communication in “offensively coarse language, or any other manner likely to cause annoyance or alarm”. Clearly, what is offensive to one party, may be quite common to another. Similarly, a communication which may cause annoyance to one party, may be typical to another party’s relationship.
These subjective definitions have led to considerable litigation and New Jersey Appellate Court review. Our Courts have made it clear that domestic violence cannot be found in cases involving only “marital contretemps”. Rather, the alleged victim’s claims of domestic violence must be evaluated in light of the previous history of domestic violence between the parties, including previous threats, harassment and physical abuse and whether immediate danger to a person or property is present. Our Appellate Courts have repeatedly indicated that domestic violence is ordinarily more than an isolated act. Rather, a court must find that the victim needs the protection of the Domestic Violence Statue because the victim’s safety is threatened.
Notwithstanding this Appellate Court guidance, frequently Temporary Restraining Orders are granted based upon incidents or behaviors which do not meet these standards. Unfortunately, as well, because of the subjective nature of domestic violence complaints based upon “harassment”, Final Restraining Orders have been entered in an inconsistent manner.
There are numerous serious consequences resulting from domestic violence matters which can greatly affect the parties’ rights and obligations in the event of divorce. First and foremost, a domestic violence restraining order will result in the removal of the defendant from the marital residence. This will cause substantial disruption and, in many cases, financial hardship and significant disadvantages in settlement negotiations and divorce proceedings.
Second, a finding of domestic violence will have an effect on rights of custody and parenting time. In fact, our law provides a presumption that when a party is found to have committed an act of domestic violence and a restraining order is issued, it is in the best interests of the children, that custody, at least on a temporary basis, be granted to the victim. This presumption can be extremely difficult to overcome in future divorce and custody proceedings. Further, the Defendant can be subjected to multiple evaluations, including psychological evaluations, substance abuse evaluations and risk assessments.
Third, domestic violence orders can result in problems with employment and difficulties involving professional licenses, law enforcement qualifications and disqualification for future employment opportunities.
It is for these reasons, and others, that there is no question that any party, whether victim or defendant, should consult with experienced matrimonial counsel if a domestic violence complaint is filed or even if a domestic violence complaint is being contemplated. During a consultation, experienced matrimonial counsel should provide a party with guidance as to how best to present necessary evidence in support of the domestic violence complaint or in response to a domestic violence complaint. There should also be a discussion as to whether the party should consider resolving the domestic violence matter by consenting to similar restraints pursuant to a Civil Restraining Order which could be entered pursuant to a divorce, custody or support matter. In many cases, the civil restraints can be mutual and applicable to both parties. Further, during a consultation, an attorney may advise the victim that there are deficiencies in the victim’s domestic violence complaint that require immediate amendment before a final hearing. Similarly, a defendant in a domestic violence matter can be advised to file a cross-claim against the plaintiff, if there are allegations that the defendant has also been subjected to acts of domestic violence. Finally, if it appears that a trial is necessary, a litigant must be advised as to the court procedures, including the potential of producing or subpoenaing witnesses.
In summary, although domestic violence proceedings are meant to deal with protecting victims and providing them with easy access to the judicial system, the potential far-reaching effects on the parties’ rights and obligations demand consultation with counsel at the earliest possible time.

title: Professional ear wax removal medina oh

text:
Most people think of ear wax as a disgusting nuisance that must be cleaned out on a regular basis and is a normal part of daily hygiene. Ear wax serves an important purpose. It helps protect the ear canal by removing dead cells, skin, dirt, and hair. Ear wax helps prevent infection and prevents irritation caused by water. Although some ear wax is good, too much can cause these problems.
Problems of too Much Ear Wax
The body can overproduce ear wax. Ear wax removal in Medina, OH can treat excess wax in the ears. Blockages, also known as cerumen impaction is due to this excess production of ear wax. It then builds up in the ear canal. Most people use cotton swabs to clean their ears. This can actually help to cause an ear wax blockage because it pushes the ear wax further down into the ear canal. There are several ways to deal with ear wax removal.
Wax is secreted by glands in the skin located in your ear canal. In those who make a normal amount of wax, the old wax is removed as new wax is made, in those producing too much ear wax, the old wax isn’t cleared fast enough for the new wax to take its place.
Why Choose the Professionals?
Although home treatments are available, you do not want to risk damaging your ear by attempting ear wax removal on your own. Your ear canal and ear drum are essential to being able to hear clearly. They are also sensitive components of the ear and therefore easily injured. A doctor will be able to give a thorough examination of your ear and make sure that the issue is indeed a blockage. Depending on the severity of the blockage, the doctor will recommend a treatment and thoroughly explain the process to you. Visit Hearing Health Centers for more information.

Thinking of selling a home in the Fall? Are you wondering if it’s a good time to list? The answer might surprise you because it’s a resounding YES!
Our current market is experiencing critically low inventory. With the proper marketing strategy, well-priced and well-prepared homes sell briskly.
Consider these other benefits of selling a home in the Fall:
Less competition from other sellers. Because the housing market typically cools off a bit in the fall, there are fewer homes for sale. Coupled with unusually low inventory to begin with, sellers may experience a competitive advantage which makes it more likely that their home will stand out to buyers.
Motivated buyers. Buyers who are shopping for homes in the fall are often more serious about buying than buyers who are shopping in the spring and summer. This is because they may be relocating for work or school, or they may have other pressing needs to buy a home quickly.
Cooler weather. The blistering Sacramento summers can make it hard for homes to look their best. Cooler weather makes it more comfortable for buyers to view homes, keeps landscaping fresher, and makes it easier to hold open houses.

title: Upper intermediate grammar verbs of the senses

text:
We use our senses on a daily basis, so it’s of great importance that we know how to use the verbs to describe them correctly in English. In today’s post, we are going to look over the different sense verbs in English, so that you gain a greater understanding of how they are used in English.
Verbs of the senses
There are six verbs of the senses:
These verbs are very important because of how often they are used. Normally, when using a verb of the senses, we place an adjective after the verb, instead of an adverb.
“Those earrings look expensive, are they real platinum?”
See in the example, the verb “look” is followed by the adjective “expensive”. Let’s look at some more examples:
“That drawing looks great on the wall, do you like it?”
“I think the milk is off, it tastes horrible”
“Oliver feels lonely, because he doesn’t know anyone”
“Can you smell that? It smells delicious! I think Fiona is making a cake”
How to use “of” with taste and smell
The verbs “taste” and “smell” can also be followed by “of” and a noun.
“It smells of flowers in here, did you buy roses for me?”
“Can you taste that? This tea tastes of mint”
How to use “like” with verbs of the senses
We can use “like” to make comparisons. Let’s see some examples:
“Imma looks like her sister Anna”
“That icecream tastes like the one we bought in Italy”
“Mmm… it smells like summer!”
“Oh no! It feels like I’m getting a cold”
“Can you hear that? It sounds like the neighbour is playing his guitar again”
“Those clouds look like it’s going to rain”
“Do you feel like pizza? I do!”
“To feel” means to experience a particular emotion or physical sensation. The expression “feel like” is used a lot in English and it means to want to do something.
“To feel like” is also used when we have a sensation or an impression of something.

Nurturing Nature: Cultivating Eco-Friendly Gardens Through Data-Driven Sustainability Practices
In the modern world, home gardening is not just a hobby; it's a responsibility. As we tread the path to sustainability, integrating eco-friendly choices into our gardening practices becomes imperative. By harnessing the power of data-driven sustainability, we can create and nurture gardens that not only beautify our surroundings but also contribute to a healthier planet.
Implementing Eco-Friendly Choices Based on Carbon Footprint Analysis and Environmental Impact Reports
Gardening with an eco-conscious mindset begins with making informed choices. One impactful way of achieving this is by analyzing the carbon footprint of various gardening activities. This involves understanding the emissions associated with different gardening practices, such as water usage, fertilizer application, and energy consumption for garden maintenance.
We encourage adopting rainwater harvesting systems and solar-powered garden tools as practices that align well with minimizing one's carbon footprint in gardening efforts. Selecting drought-resistant plants and employing efficient watering techniques such as drip irrigation further exemplify how informed decisions can significantly reduce environmental impact.
Orchestrating Biodiversity with Data-Informed Selection of Native Plant Species
Biodiversity is the lifeline of any garden ecosystem. Embracing native plant species not only contributes to preserving local flora but also fosters a self-sustaining environment. When choosing plants for your garden, consider the ecological benefits of local species.
Integrating native plant species fosters an environment that supports local wildlife, including birds, bees, and beneficial insects. These creatures play a vital role in pollination and pest control, thereby enhancing the ecological balance and productivity of your garden.
Tracking Soil Health Metrics to Enhance Organic Gardening Practices
The foundation of a thriving garden lies beneath the surface – in the soil. A critical aspect of sustainable gardening involves nurturing and enriching the soil through organic practices. To achieve this, it is essential to monitor and track various soil health metrics.
Understanding soil health extends beyond mere nutrient analysis; it encompasses factors such as moisture retention capacity, structure, and biodiversity within soil microorganisms. Engaging in composting activities complements these efforts by contributing organic matter that enhances soil fertility and overall garden health.
Innovating Sustainable Pest Control Through Meticulous Data Analysis
In a balanced garden ecosystem, pest control plays a pivotal role in preserving plant health without disrupting natural harmony. Traditional pesticide-centric approaches often lead to unintended environmental consequences, necessitating a shift towards sustainable pest management strategies.
Adopting integrative pest management (IPM) strategies further exemplifies commitment to sustainable pest control. This approach relies heavily on understanding the life cycles of pests and their interaction with the environment. Through careful observation and leveraging biological controls—such as introducing predatory insects—gardeners can maintain pest populations at manageable levels without resorting to harmful chemicals.
In conclusion, cultivating an eco-friendly garden through data-driven sustainability practices is not only feasible but essential in today's world. By implementing informed choices based on carbon footprint analysis, embracing native plant species through data-informed selection, tracking soil health metrics, and innovating sustainable pest control through meticulous data analysis, gardeners can contribute significantly to environmental preservation while nurturing their own piece of nature.

By Olja Savičević, translated by Celia Hawkesworth
Famous soap opera scriptwriter, Clementine, is slowly losing her memory and decides to embark on a road trip down memory lane (in a golden convertible) in search of her greatest love and ex-husband, Nightingale, an artist whose uncompromising artistic integrity is opposed to Cementines’s fickle life in the world of TV drama. It is a series of letters by the street poet Nightingale, written over several weeks and hand-delivered to the inhabitants of the street where they lived, that cracks open the novel. The letters, triggered by a mysterious couple who make love loudly in the middle of the night, keeping the neighbourhood awake, touch upon the nature of love, war, lust, capitalism, and childhood, highlighting the paradox of the human condition through playful humour.
Singer in the Night is a rich, sensual novel which comments on perception, on how life is really lived – never objectively, never encompassing the whole truth, and yet no less real to us. In its final message, the novel gives a playful warning about the consequences of choosing banality – whether it be nationalism, vanity or fame – over true human connection.
“At times, the novel is unapologetically sentimental and brazenly riotous, a pure delight in the vein of Jonas Jonasson’s The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared. Clementine is a memorable protagonist: chatty and beguiling, insightful and shrewd”
“The shifting, subjective nature of memory is examined here; perspectives are plentiful and the pages glitter with offbeat humour and playful dialogue.”
Charlotte Newman, LITRO Magazine
“The great strength of the novel, along with its complexity, lies in its courage to present a period of time and its ‘structures of feeling’ (Raymond Williams) in full colour, in an atmosphere of ideological passions, and in opposition to nationalist and neoliberal dogma.”
“The strength of this inventive novel lies its extraordinary characters and the opportunities they and their stories offer to speak to greater realities in the former Yugoslavia, sharply, but with wit and humour.”
“This reflection on the fragility of memory – both personal and historical – is a poignant, innovative and politically engaged book that deserves attention.”
Helen Vassallo, Translating Women


title: Tompolo faceoff with efcc i have

text:
“Tompolo” Ekpemupolo, Former militant, Government has denied allegations of fraud levelled against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Tompolo is alleged to have committed the fraud along with former Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) boss, Patrick Akpobolokemi.
The former militant is said to have made the denial in an open letter written to President Muhammadu Buhari and obtained by The Nation.
“The truth of the matter is that I do not know anything about the N34 billion Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is talking about. First, it was N13 billion issue, now it is N34 billion,” he wrote.
“I am not a signatory to any of the companies mentioned in the said N34 billion case, so I do not know where this one is coming from. I know that God in His infinite mercy will see me through in this critical moment.
“They (APC members) are the ones carrying out the act to smear my name. They are doing this in connivance with the EFCC lawyer, who is also a member of your party, who is in the forefront of prosecuting me because I refused to buy a property from him.
“As for the EFCC lawyer, he approached me some years back that I should come to Abuja and Lagos to buy some choice property worth billions of naira from him. I told him that I do not have such money to buy property.
“Since then he has been looking for any opportunity to drag me into matters I do not know anything about. And this is one of the reasons why I have not appeared in the court because he is not qualified to prosecute me,” he added.
An order for Tompolo’s arrest was issued by a Federal High Court in Lagos after he failed to appear before it to face the charges against him.


title: Protein for quick muscle building

text:
Protein contributes to muscle building in general. But the question is how much protein does one need for quick muscle building?
Well, the first thing we need to do is clarify something. When it comes to nature, including the human body, there are risks to rushing things.
However, in this article, we will talk about how much protein you need for naturally quick muscle building.
Protein For Quick Muscle Building
First, we need to remember the basic principle that, for effective muscle building, your protein build up must exceed your protein breakdown.
The basic guideline is that you need to consume 1 gram of protein for every pound of your body weight.
So if you weigh 200 pounds, then theoretically you need to consume 200 grams of protein every day for effective and quick muscle building.
Let’s say you’ve begun your weight training routine, and you’re at it pretty hard. If you don’t take in enough protein, your body won’t get enough amino acids necessary to develop muscles and help them recover.
On the flip side, if your weight training is at a light-to-moderate intensity, but your protein intake is high, your activity is not enough to break it down and turn it into muscle.
But can you get those grams from different sources if needed?
Types Of Animal Protein
What people don’t realize is that there are different types of protein. These types have different rates of digestion as well as different amounts and types of amino acids.
Here are a few examples:
- Beef – as for essential amino acids, it has plenty, and the body uses 70-80% of what you consume.
- Whey protein – like beef, it is digested quickly, but your body uses more of it than beef at 90%. It’s also a popular for the psychotic pre workout.
- Egg protein – like whey, 90% of this protein gets used by your body, but has a slower digestion than beef or whey.
What these figures tell us is that if you get plenty of these, your body’s protein needs should have no trouble being met.
Vegetarians will have a challenge, but they too can find good sources of vegetarian protein for weight training.
The Quick And The Dead
Now we come to the “quick” part of the equation. In this day and age, people want things “fast, quick and in a hurry”. But the problem is, it messes with nature.
The tendency among many is to push the limits of what the human body was designed to handle naturally.
With muscle building, pushing the limits is risky.
Doing things naturally is the quick and safe way to build muscle. Nature shouldn’t be rushed.
So there’s wiggle room here in terms of where you get your protein. Different sources of protein, whether meat, veggies or grains, contain different amounts of protein.
But you should be able to find your unique level in one or a combination of the protein sources listed here.

Cutting–edge tools just like a framework installation software, an .htaccess generator and a hotlink protection application are bundled too.
Increased CPU quotas
More power for your applications and sites
Our Linux semi-dedicated packages give you a higher portion of the main server's processing power in comparison with standard shared hosting accounts where you share this essential server resource with many users. This will release more operating power for your resource-intensive websites that have to receive a greater number of site visitors. Additionally, this will likely decrease any probable service disruptions that could happen in case you exceed the lower CPU quotas on a regular shared hosting account.
Increased MySQL queries
Host dynamic MySQL tables without problems
Along with substantially greater CPU allocations, the Linux semi-dedicated packages also come with a large amount of allotted MySQL queries. This can help you accommodate much more resource-hungry apps and sites without having to be worried about any possible service interruptions.
ModuLogix’s Linux semi-dedicated packages are loaded with diverse amounts of MySQL queries, so you’re able to choose the setup that fits your current and potential database processing demands.
USA Data Center
A top-of-the-line USA data center
The Linux semi-dedicated packages are situated in a top-class USA datacenter that is found in Chicago, Illinois.

Have the perfect performance data transfer speeds for your sites
Amazingly fast functioning is one of the key merits of our semi-dedicated hosting. We have managed to raise the system bandwidth to as much as 10 Gbits for far better connectivity and much faster site opening speeds, to present supplementary servers that optimize server management actions and limit service disturbances and downtimes, and to move member information to NVMes, which offer much faster information execution speeds and a far better reliability than regular hard drives.
A variety of applications to quicken your sites
In the ModuLogix Hosting Control Panel you will find a pair of web accelerator tools targeted at speeding up your multi–media, database–powered web sites. By caching data, these tools minimize the volume of occasions a database is requested and for this reason help reduce the server stress. This will help your websites start a lot faster and will reduce the bounce numbers. You have the option to choose from a few web accelerator programs – Varnish, Node.js and Memcached.
Your webpage will be more rapid with NVMes
All present–day personal computers and mobile computing devices feature NVMe drives and there is a serious reason for that. NVMe drives include faster reading/writing connections, helping to make all process substantially faster. The same will apply to your site if you move it to us. All of our semi-dedicated hosting are equipped with NVMe drives and the sites hosted with us function a lot faster as opposed to those working on regular computer drives.
And one of the benefits is that you won’t have to alter or tweak anything at all so as to cause it to operate speedier.
Enhanced Service Stability and Security
Twice guaranteed semi-dedicated hosting
By storing applications, emails and data bases on several physical devices rather than just one, we’ve designed a whole lot more stable website hosting workspace for your web profile. Also, we have lessened the web servers’ susceptibility to hacking/DDoS assaults that may easily break down the whole server on a standard shared hosting platform.
Remote MySQL Access
Remote connecting to your data bases
In case you have got a database which you want to share through different web sites positioned on different servers and with different web hosting companies, you can take full advantage of our Remote MySQL characteristic. Using it, you will be able to provide easy access to your database to diverse web pages that you trust. This is particularly valuable should you have a database of shoppers that you will need to share among a number of online stores.

We heard back from the Plastic Surgeon (more baby-head-surgeon than celebrity-face-lift surgeon, in case you are concerned) who is going to be doing Benjamin’s surgery, and wanted to update and let people know that we have a consultation on September 2nd.
The surgery (and therefore the consultation) is going to take place in Winston-Salem, at the Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. That works out great, since my (Ben’s) parents live there, and it gives us the ability to just focus all of our energy on being patients in the hospital, without having to play hosts at the same time for all the parents who will (hopefully and expectedly) be in town for the surgery.
The receptionist at the plastic surgeon’s office, though, probably thinks I am an idiot. I had a lot of trouble trying to verbalize the question “How soon after the consultation do you expect to schedule the surgery?” without it coming across like I wanted her to do an over-the-phone consultation meeting right then with me. Finally we found a common language (English, it turns out) that enabled her to answer that there is no way of knowing before the consultation how soon they will schedule the surgery, but that we could probably expect it to be at least a week later. So, it looks like we will become intimate with the 141 miles of I-40 between Asheville and Winston over the next few months, between consultations, surgery, followups, and the like. Good thing gas prices aren’t high, at all. (Note healthy dose of sarcasm)
Please continue praying for the MRI, which takes place on Monday at 1:30 PM EDT. We can definitely feel your prayers in a way that I never have before. Thanks so much for really showing us what it means for others to bear our burdens.
