![]() In a pitiful whisper, he too spoke of the usual welcome at Chernokozovo, the beatings, having to crawl into the interrogation room and ask for permission to enter. He screamed so much when he was being beaten that his vocal cords snapped. Our third witness is a man of 20 who has the voice of an 80-year-old. ![]() The Red Cross has confirmed that one of their delegates visited Chernokozovo her name was Catherine and she was Belgian. Could he tell the Red Cross about the beatings and torture? 'No, the guards had come round before and told us we would be tortured if we did.' Richard said that one day in the summer a Red Cross representative - a French woman called Catherine - came to Chernokozovo. He also underwent 'the swallow' and electric shock torture. While they stretch you, they hit you with rubber truncheons, bottles full of water, targeting the kidneys.' ![]() 'They crank a pulley to stretch you with chains attached to your legs. The second victim - Richard - corroborated much of Peter's story and added his own account of agony: the 'meat-rack'. Barbed wire, steps down to his cell, the punishment tank where he was dunked in the chemical that left him blind for days. Painstakingly, Chernokozovo came to life. There was also something else, a barrel full of water with a cage on top. I practically lost my sight when they shoved my head in there. They cuffed my hands behind my back and said, "Go on, swim". They'd hold you for half a day like that.'īut this wasn't the worst torture for the teenager: 'They put me in a cell. And then they would use you like a punchbag. He sat in front of us, head bowed, terrified of eye contact: 'They handcuffed your arms behind your back and hooked the cuffs to a chain so you were suspended from the ceiling, with all your weight bearing down on your hands and shoulders. He was living in a refugee city in Ingushetia, next door to Chechnya. So then they would turn the music up loud, so you couldn't hear the screams.' You could hear them being beaten from the cell. They had their teeth bashed in, their kidneys smashed in. Every night they would take people out of the cells. 'At night,' he said, 'the things you heard were just terrible. The screams were so bad local people were forced to move away because they found them unbearable. In the small Chechen village of Katyr Yurt, a torture victim blinded in one eye spoke of the screams he heard each night while inside Chernokozovo. Russian security forces have mounted a series of cover-ups to hide evidence of abuses from the Red Cross and the Council of Europe. The 'elephant' is just one instrument of torture used by the Russian occupation forces in Chechnya, revealed today in a joint investigation by The Observer and the BBC's Radio Five Report. It was so bad just the sight of the gas mask in the room would make people confess to anything.' And then they would squirt CS gas down the breathing hole. And they would let go and you would breathe in deeply. 6 to likely secure the opportunity to get one of the top-tier pass-catcher prospects - Jaylen Waddle, Ja'Marr Chase, Devonta Smith, Kyle Pitts - in this class to help Tua Tagovailoa.A second victim spoke of a refinement of the 'elephant': 'Once the gas mask was on, they would choke you, so you were gasping to breathe. It was such a gigantic compensation package, Miami had the ammunition to trade up from No. We're talking Herschel Walker type of a draft haul. The Dolphins have made out like bandits in the Tunsil trade. 6 overall ( Eagles), second-round pick (Texans), fifth-round pick (Eagles) Pre-2021: Three years of Tunsil (2016-2018), CB Noah Igbinoghene, OG Solomon Kindley, two years of OT Julie'n Davenport (2019-2020), one year of CB Johnson Bademosi (2019)Ģ021: No. To date, here's what that viral incident has netted: Dolphins In the aftermath, it's time to take a step back and assess everything that's happened since Tunsil's unforgettable draft moment. 3 overall pick it acquired in that deal to make another big move on Friday to acquire draft picks. Miami followed that by making a mammoth trade to send Tunsil to the Texans in 2019, then used the No. The Dolphins ultimately stopped the most bizarre draft-night slide in NFL history by picking him at No. Literally as the top 5 of the draft was unfolding, this video went viral, a devious plan set forth by someone hoping to plummet the Ole Miss star's draft position. At the outset of the 2016 NFL Draft, Laremy Tunsil's own Twitter account - reportedly hacked - sent a video of him wearing a bong attached to a gas mask. It was a moment that seemed unbelievable as it unraveled.

But do be careful, you will lose the track of time playing this game. ![]() Trust me, it will bring out the competition in you, trying to beat your opponent. It is a fun game, I do recommend it to others. It's probably intended for a younger aged player than myself. I'm not one for playing tennis, I'm more a one person shooter or a Nascar game but this game is put together well. The characters each have their own traits and the opponents get harder as the game progresses. All you do is hit the ball back and forth. ![]() The game itself is rather simple and easy to play, after all, it is tennis. I decided that I had to have it so I looked it up on E-Bay. I got hooked on this game playing the demo version at Wal-Mart. Nevertheless, this is a recent title and the second version I'm sure won't be out soon, so if you like Tennis and liked Hot Shots Golf gameplay, do not hesitate to buy this title. (Challenge mode can be completed in about5-6 hours depending on your learning curve.) I don't expect Grand Slam like other games which I'm all for, but they could've put some other options of playing once you're done unlocking everything.Īgain, it's a very very fun game to play, but I just wish there were more enjoyable features that could hold me for a longer time. They have Hot Shots Challenge where you can unlock characters and stuff, and free game areas where you can just play singles or doubles game for one-time fun. However, where I stumbled upon was the features they had. Just like the Golf version, it is very easy to learn and start with but still has a depth where you can really hone your skills and get better. The gameplay of Hot Shots Tennis really met the expectation I had, and that says a lot since I had great experience with Golf version. Less than handful of features.Īs a Hot Shots Golf fan, this game was an obvious must-buy.

Be doing 2.Īnd if you don't have much training experience-let's say you've got a year, maybe 2 or less under your belt-and even the 2 sets is kicking your ass? Okay, do one. If you're dead after these workouts, if you're completely crushed-I'm not talking about a good workout, I'm talking about crushed the next day, crushed all week from doing these-don't do 3 sets. That's what I've been hearing online from everybody that's done the 3 sets, everybody's going "Oh my god, Jim, this workout's crushing me! It's killing me! Workout one I'm dead!" And I ask, "Well did you do 2 sets or 3 sets of all the other exercises?" Every time, they say, "Well 3 sets, right? More is better." No, not always. And I've got the answer for you: Drop one set. It means that 3 sets for all the other exercises is too much. So if you're doing 3 because you think you need more volume, and it's kicking your ass, you can cut back-especially if you're not able to increase by 5-10 lbs this week. I'm choosing-and I do full-body training all the time, I train seven days a week-I'm choosing 2 sets for all the other ones. I've got some training experience under my belt. 50 years old, I've been training since I was 7 years old. All the other exercises except those ones, you have the option of doing 2 sets or 3 sets. Dumbbell shoulder press for shoulders, 3 sets. For Workout 1 that's the bench press you're doing 3 sets here. Remember, you're only doing 3 sets for the very first exercise for all the major muscle groups. So if you're unable to increase the weight to get the 9-11 reps this week and you find that your body's just dead, it could just be that the program is a little much for you. If that's the case, make sure you're not doing 3 sets of all the exercises. Give yourself some time to adapt to the program, Week 3, you'll start increasing your weight for sure. I hope that's not the case, and if that is the case don't worry-you're just having a bad week. Maybe the same weight you used last week-you're just dead-is going to be 9-11 reps. ![]() Maybe you can't even use the same weight. Maybe your strength-maybe you can't even go up in weight here. ![]() Some people may have destroyed themselves through Week 1, and now you're dead. That's not true for everyone, some people may already be getting strength gains-you may need to jump up 20 lbs. Most people will find that adding somewhere around 5-10 lbs on most of these exercises should take you from where you were-12-15 reps-to about 9-11 reps per set. That means you're going to be using heavier weight this week, for all those same exercises, that you were using last week. It doesn't mean that we go and use the same weight we used last week for the bench press and just do fewer reps. So 5 workouts a week, and like I said this week we're up to 9-11 reps per set. Each day you do an exercise for each major muscle group in addition to the split training, so it's combining split training with whole-body training. Then in Workout 5, for back we have seated cable rows. Workout 4, for back we have straight-arm pulldown. On Day 3, after we've done it, we have dumbbell rows-back exercise. However, on Day 1, you can see reverse-grip pulldown-back exercise, just one. We're doing 4 back exercises first here, full split back workout. Same thing in Workout 2 when we get to back. So even though Workout 1, we're doing full-blown split training once a week, we're also doing, every day for at least those 5 workouts, another exercise for that muscle group. Workout 2, it's the dumbbell bench press. This week, we're going to increase the weight-exercises stay the same-so again, 5 workouts each week, and remember here what we're doing is we're combining split training where you have a chest day-we have 4 different chest exercises in Workout 1-in addition to that workout for chest, each of these other 4 workouts you'll find a chest exercise. I, however, am in Week 2, meaning last week we did these 5 workouts all with 12-15 reps. Combining Full-Body and Split-Style Training If you're going, "Wait, Jim's doing Shortcut to Size as a full-body program? I really want to see how to do this, but he's into Week 2." Well, you can follow along-you don't have to jump into Week 2-just pull up the program, start Week 1, and follow from there. Now, we're in Week 2-for at least those who have started with me-but again, you can follow along at any time. Here in my Hollywood JYM doing a tutorial on Week 2 of my Full-Body Shortcut to Size. The text below is an edited transcript of the tutorial intended to provide members with a convenient means of referring to and further researching the topics and content detailed in the video. Note: This tutorial video was recorded as a live Facebook event. King County held a special election on September 19, asking the public for this sales tax increase the measure led early, but was narrowly defeated by one-fifth of one percent. The task force concluded that a sales tax increase of 0.1% (to 8.3%) would be sufficient to fund the stadium. In January 1995, the 28-member task force recommended to the King County Council that the public should be involved in financing the stadium. Many feared that the Mariners would leave Seattle if a new stadium was not built. On March 30, 1994, county executive Gary Locke appointed a task force to assess the need for a new baseball stadium to replace the rapidly deteriorating Kingdome. T-Mobile Park is also served by the 1 Line of Sound Transit's Link light rail system and local King County Metro and Sound Transit Express bus routes at the nearby Stadium station.Ī dedicated ride-hailing lot opened in June 2023 along 3rd Avenue it cost $2.8 million to construct and was opened ahead of the 2023 MLB All-Star Game.

Atlantic Street) to the south, Royal Brougham Way to the north, and BNSF railroad tracks to the east. ![]() T-Mobile Park is in the SoDo district of downtown Seattle, bounded by Dave Niehaus Way (a block of 1st Avenue S.) to the west, Edgar Martínez Drive (formerly S. T-Mobile acquired the naming rights on December 19, 2018, and the name change took effect on January 1, 2019. The stadium was originally named Safeco Field under a 20-year naming-rights deal with Seattle-based Safeco Insurance. Major non-baseball events that have been held at T-Mobile Park include the 2001 Seattle Bowl and WrestleMania XIX in 2003, which attracted the stadium's record attendance of 54,097. ![]() T-Mobile Park is also used for amateur baseball events, including the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association high school state championships and one Washington Huskies game per season. The bonds issued to finance Safeco Field were retired on October 1, 2011, five years earlier than anticipated. ![]() The site, just south of the Kingdome, was selected in September 1996 and construction began in March 1997. As a result, the Washington State Legislature approved an alternate means of funding for the stadium with public money. Shortly thereafter, the Mariners' first appearance in the MLB postseason and their victory in the 1995 American League Division Series (ALDS) revived public desire to keep the team in Seattle. In September 1995, King County voters defeated a ballot measure to secure public funding for a new baseball stadium. The first game at the stadium was played on July 15, 1999.ĭuring the 1990s, the suitability of the Mariners' original stadium-the Kingdome-as an MLB facility came under question, and the team's ownership group threatened to relocate the team. It is owned and operated by the Washington State Major League Baseball Stadium Public Facilities District. It is in Seattle's SoDo neighborhood, near the western terminus of Interstate 90.

There aren’t many small businesses that can afford the services of a lawyer. Most small business owners prefer to consider legal action only when every other attempt to get their overdue payment sorted out has failed. That’s what makes chasing an invoice payment such a hassle. In other words, you’re not only dealing with an outstanding payment but now you also have to pay to get the amount due. While this is usually an effective method, it also means paying for the service. If this fails, then it might be time to hire a collection agency to secure payment for the outstanding invoice(s). Start looking into collection agencies in your areaįor most small businesses, calling the client serves as a final payment reminder. By calling them, you eliminate all doubts and get to the root of the issue. Perhaps they were having difficulties accessing their emails over the last few weeks. The good thing about this approach is that it is a sure way to get the client’s attention. You earned this money, after all, and you deserve to be paid as at when due. At times, this may seem awkward, especially if this is your first time encountering outstanding invoices with a particular client. Call the client directly to sort things out. If your friendly reminder doesn’t yield any useful response, then it’s time to step it up a notch. Include other relevant information in the letter, like the number of days passed since the payment due date, any late fees that accrue with late payments, a copy of the invoice, and how the client can send their invoice payment. Keep it short but professional and get straight to the subject matter - please settle your overdue invoice. Your invoice already serves as a payment request this email is essentially a follow-up to that request. Send a short payment request email or letter If the client has confirmed receipt and the payment is still yet to be made, you can send a polite payment reminder letter stating that their payment is now past due. You may be getting agitated at the prospect of having to chase down a client over outstanding payments when in fact, they never even received your invoice. How to deal with late payments from clientsīefore you send any payment reminder, first confirm if the client received the original invoice. They can also send it after the due date is passed, though the wording in each instance will differ. Small businesses can send payment reminders before the due date so the client understands the amount to be paid. The most commonly accepted approach for encouraging these defaulters to make prompt payments is to politely follow up with them through emails or letters. In most cases, following up with customers with unpaid invoices can be challenging. You can attach a copy of the overdue invoice in your email, along with other relevant information about the payment, so the recipient knows the best way to settle it. A payment reminder is a quicker and more efficient way to follow up with the client. It’s exactly what it sounds like - an email that you send to a client or customer reminding them to settle any outstanding payments owed to you. In this article, you’ll learn how to deal with an overdue payment, as well as how to craft a compelling payment reminder email to your client(s). Nevertheless, you did the job required of you and should therefore be paid for your work. Perhaps they’ve already made the payment, but it’s stuck in transit due to issues with the bank or payment platform. They probably forgot about the due date or are dealing with financial hardships of their own. Here’s the thing though, most of the time, clients with an overdue invoice on their hands aren’t doing it intentionally to put you in such a situation. At worst, late payments can destabilize your cash flow, causing you to look to other sources to cover your expenses. And it’s not just the fact that the money you’ve been expecting hasn’t arrived long past the due date, but now you have to chase after the client, which is a hassle on its own.Īt best, you lose valuable time that you would rather spend on actually running your business or doing something you enjoy. If you’ve been in business for some time, chances are you’ve encountered your fair share of unpaid invoices and late payments. ![]() Domestic: 2 complimentary access/quarter.Just incase if you’re wondering, not to worry, the card details are at the back. On a quick comparison, HDFC Millennia debit card which has similar design with minor change in the colour gradient looks better. I recently got this card (as an add-on) and it looks pretty good in hand. If you’re new to credit cards you would be surprised to see a neat and clean minimalistic design without the card details embossed on front of the card, except your name. Generally you can’t choose the variant but if you’re facing issues in acceptance like with Diners, you may request bank to get it changed to your desired card network stating the reason. It may also differ based on sourcing medium, for ex, most card members are getting “Diners Millennia” if the upgrade was done via net-banking. HDFC may likely rotate the variant from time to time to keep them in a specific ratio. These days its interesting to see entry level cards like HDFC Millennia & Axis ACE on Visa Signature variant, as you get additional platform benefits as well. Speaking of HDFC Millennia, you should also know the different variants of Millennia, meaning the different card networks on which the card is issued. On testing, it came within ~1 week of completing the transaction.Ĭoming to the redemption of this benefit, they have quite a list of brands as below, but as always Amazon voucher is the best among the options and it was available for instant redemption post which you’ll get an email with the voucher details like this. That’s a pretty good lift of 1% on reward rate, meaning you’ll get at-least 2% on all your spends if you can spend 1L every quarter.Īlso, fortunately the fulfilment of this reward is also pretty fast than expected. Redeeming for statement credit is indeed the best way to maximize the benefit on the Millennia credit card. 1 CashPoint = INR 0.30 (for flight/hotel redemption).This is like going back to stone age, hmmm! Reward Redemptions While industry demands instant earning/redeeming, HDFC takes opposite route. Instead you get points added in bulk by beginning of every month. Note that this is the only HDFC credit card that gives rewards for wallet loads at the moment, which is good.īut you don’t earn these points in real-time.
