![]() They also offer seasonal salads and sandwiches in addition to gluten free and vegan options. Traditional sandwiches get a Cali inspired update – turkey with herb-dill spread, organic alfalfa sprouts, sliced avocado, quick pickled cucumbers on mom’s seeded whole wheat, instead of the standard lettuce, tomato and mayo on French or sourdough. The breads alone are a revelation – fresh from the bakery, they don’t overwhelm the fillings but frame them. Mendocino Farms sources their ingredients from local farmers, ranchers and food artisans for the freshest, most flavorful sandwich you’ve ever tasted. I’m thrilled to report that FINALLY, the sandwich has arrived on the West Coast. I gave up eating store-bought sandwiches years ago when Subway and Quizno became the standard for what a sandwich should be. For reasons unbeknownst to me, Southern California never really got with the sandwich program. I grew up eating sandwiches made in NYC delis where they know how to make a sandwich. You really should make reservations well in advance! Mendocino Farms (I should mention, I’ve had an incredible flank steak entree.) Located in a strip mall, they’ve been using a breezeway for patio dining (not sure if that’s a permanent setup) which provides additional seating, but don’t count on walking in. They serve salads, sandwiches and a couple of daily specials, but it’s ALL about the pasta, which is hand-rolled daily. There’s a Michelin-trained chef in the kitchen using local, market-driven ingredients. This tiny establishment is making big waves on the local food scene. BUT! They also offer dual happy hours and a Bar a la Carte menu, so you can eat and drink your fill at a very reasonable price! Jame EnotecaĬuisine: Traditional Italian, Modern Californian This is fine dining at its best and the prices reflect it. I especially appreciate the ‘small plates’ they recently added to the menu. If you’re looking for a great cut of meat, look no further. One of the few places in the South Bay where you’ll be comfortable getting dressed for dinner (even though some patrons show up in shorts and t-shirts). The decor is old school, men’s club – lot’s of dark wood, low lighting and leather booths. ![]() Casual, delicious, beachy! Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse Craft Shack celebrates the local craft beer scene with a roster of South Bay-only craft beers from the Strand, 3 Weavers, El Segundo Brewing, Smog City and more, plus wine and spirits from artisanal producers. Situated in the center of The Point, diners order at the counter and can enjoy a meal on the patio, on the grass in the Plaza or take it to-go. ![]() From a tiny Pakistani market that will surprise you with whatever they feel like cooking to a takeout window serving one of the best breakfast burritos in town, the South Bay has it all. There are almost as many restaurants as there are beach volleyball courts along the stretch from LAX to San Pedro. To put it mildly, the South Bay is massive.

![]() ![]() READ MORE | Only smoke socially? You're still at high risk of lung cancer It has a money counter that shows you much money you're saving by not smoking, as well as pointing out your specific triggers for relapse. This easy-to-use app has a downtime counter that shows you how your health is improving through a tobacco-free life. The app is designed like a game with a personalised dashboard and daily diary that help you continue on your journey, even if if you've had a relapse. Whenever you have the urge to smoke, you just shake your phone for a motivational message to help you fight the impulse. Kwit's strategy is modelled on scientific-backed evidence to help you stop, supported with kind messages to keep you going. The ‘WHO Quit Tobacco App’, launched during WHO’s year-long ‘Commit to quit’ campaign, is the latest tobacco control initiative by the WHO South-East Asia Region.READ | Smoking ups your risk of a fatal brain bleed Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives, Sri Lanka and Timor-Leste have established and scaled-up tobacco cessation services. Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka are working towards moving tobacco farmers away from growing tobacco. Six countries have banned ENDS (electronic cigarettes). Timor-Leste, Nepal, Maldives, India, and Sri Lanka have implemented large-sized graphic health warnings on tobacco packs. Thailand was the first in Asia to implement Plain Packaging. The Region has expanded tobacco surveillance to monitor tobacco use prevalence and tobacco control policies. The growing use of new and emerging products such as Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems/ ECigarettes, sheesha/hukkah are additional challenges to tobacco control. The Region has 266 million smokeless tobacco users of the 355 million globally. With a focused approach to control tobacco, as part of regional flagship to reduce NCD burden, countries have been accelerating implementation of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and MPOWER package, a set of six cost-effective and high impact measures to reduce demand and supply of tobacco and tackle the tobacco epidemic.Īs per the WHO Global Report on Trends in Prevalence of Tobacco Use 2000-2025 (4th edition, 2021) WHO South-East Asia Region recorded the fastest decline in tobacco use but continued to have the highest 432 million tobacco users, or 29% of its population. ![]() Tobacco users are also at higher risk of complication and severe disease in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Tobacco use is a major risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCD) including cancers, cardiovascular diseases, chronic lung diseases and diabetes. It claims 1.6 million lives in the WHO South-East Asia Region which is amongst the largest producers and consumers of tobacco products. Tobacco is the world’s leading cause of preventable death, and kills nearly 8 million persons every year. The app, the first such by WHO, and the first that targets all forms of tobacco, helps users to identify the triggers, set their targets, manage cravings, and stay focused to quit tobacco. Innovative approaches such as this app are much needed to support people give up tobacco, which they may be aware is harmful, but are unable to quit for various reasons,” said Dr Poonam Khetrapal Singh, Regional Director, WHO South-East Asia Region, launching the app. The World Health Organization today launched ‘Quit Tobacco App’ to help people kick the cigarette butt and give up use of tobacco in all forms - including smokeless and other newer products. ![]() Benefiting from the expertise of its sister company Precision Engineering AG, H. ![]() has borrowed from MB&F the concept of three-dimensional movements, a strong element of the Geneva Maison’s identity, protected by a sapphire dome and featuring a one-minute flying tourbillon that rises above the main dial through a ventricular opening appearing at 12 o’clock. Speaking of being provocative, Moser makes these very elegant, classical-looking watches, but you’ve also stirred up plenty of controversy with some of your concept designs.H. We do that through transparency and honesty, but also by being provocative. I’m trying to make an emotional link with customers. We do that through transparency and honesty, but also by being provocative and making sure nobody is indifferent about Moser-whether that opinion is good or bad. So I’m trying to make an emotional link with the brand and customers. ![]() Even though the watches were costing a lot to produce, they were being sold rather cheap, and people were saying, “Oh, Moser is great value for money.” And for me that’s shocking, because value for money has nothing to do with luxury. It took time and investment, but it’s one thing that transformed the brand from bleeding money to becoming profitable.Īnother thing was brand identity. We reduced the time it took to assemble a perpetual calendar from 90 hours-that’s two weeks-to 30 hours. So we really worked on efficiency in production. When you develop products like these, if you have a pure engineering approach then you create your dream watch, which is great but also very dangerous because you’re not considering the cost of production and how much you can sell it for. And fumé dials, Moser was doing them in limited editions, and we thought, “Wow, this is so cool, nobody is doing that.” And now I think everybody is! A watch is there to give you the time and date, so it’s one of the most practical movements there is. ![]() I think it’s still one of the most amazing movements out there. Also I fell in love with our perpetual calendar movement. My predecessor Jürgen Lange was East German, and I think he brought a lot of that, and I wanted to keep that. And I studied engineering in Germany, my wife is German, and I have always been attracted to the philosophy of German engineers and designers like the Bauhaus. It’s probably the most Germanic brand in Switzerland. What made me fully fall in love with Moser was its approach to engineering. This interview has been edited for clarity and length. Fortune spoke with Edouard about what it takes to run an independent watch brand, how to stand out in the marketplace, and how the company is navigating a global pandemic. The Meylan family had identified a distressed asset but one with clear potential, a talented team of watchmakers, and a genuine history now that asset is paying dividends. Patriarch Georges-Henri Meylan, who was CEO of Audemars Piguet for 21 years, entrusted the running of Moser to his then 35-year-old son Edouard Meylan, an engineer and Wharton MBA who was lured back to his ancestral industry. In 2012 the brand was acquired by the Meylan family, whose history in the watch industry goes back several generations. But the fame of the brand faded with the fortunes of the Imperial Court and barely survived the 20th century. Moser produced pocket watches for the Russian aristocracy at the same time Gustav Fabergé was dressing them in jewelry even Vladimir Lenin owned a Moser pocket watch. Moser & Cie., founded by Swiss watchmaker Heinrich Moser in St. Petersburg, Russia, in 1828. Flying under the radar-if a company can do such a thing for 192 years-is H. ![]() Fine for all ages, and a great game for those with limited mouse and computer skills.

Gamezebo Current version: 2.11.199, last update: 4 years ago ![]() The number of charterholders in India and China had increased by 25% and 53%, respectively, from 2005-06. By 2003, fewer than half the candidates in the CFA program were based in the United States and Canada, with most of the other candidates based in Asia or Europe. The CFA exam was first administered in 1963 and began in the United States and Canada, but has become global with many people becoming charterholders across Europe, Asia, and Australia. In 1990, in the hopes of boosting the credential's public profile, the CFA Institute (formerly the Association for Investment Management and Research) merged with the FAF and the Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts. The FAF founded the Institute of Chartered Financial Analysts in 1962 the earliest CFA charterholders were "grandfathered" in through work experience only, but then a series of three examinations was established along with a requirement to be a practitioner for several years before taking the exams. The predecessor of CFA Institute, the Financial Analysts Federation (FAF), was established in 1947 as a service organization for investment professionals. ![]() History Sectors with the highest proportion of CFA Charterholders Sector ![]()

![]() As the tree planted by streams of water “does not fear when heat comes” (Jeremiah17:8), so does the one rooted in Jesus have peace when troubles or trials come.Īs the leaves of the tree planted by streams of water are always green, so will the one “rooted and grounded in love” always be alive (Ephesians 3:17, ESV). It is in giving our burdens to Jesus that we find true rest and, as a result, true strength. Their leaves will not wither, nor their fruit fail, but they will. The trees spoken of are described as planted by streams of water or by the waters, not by just one river or stream. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light” (Matthew 11:28–30). And on the banks, on both sides of the river, there will grow all kinds of trees for food. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. And we, as a tree planted by streams of water, will provide shade and rest to others who are burdened or are in need (Galatians 6:2, 10). For he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of waters, that will bring forth her fruits in due season: whose leaf shall not fade: so whatsoever he shall. We will regularly bear fruit, as Galatians 5:22–23 teaches. ![]() We will be firmly rooted, and Jesus, our ultimate source of life, will bring nourishment and refreshment. When we delight in and meditate on the Word of God (i.e., the Bible), as the blessed man does in Psalm 1, we, too, will be like a tree planted by streams of water. He is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in him’” (Psalm 92:12–15). They will flourish in the courts of our God. “The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, The simile of a thriving tree is used elsewhere to picture the godly person: Finally, the well-watered tree has the ability to provide shade (and therefore rest) to anyone who is in need. Also, such a tree will consistently bear fruit, which is one of its primary purposes. This means that a tree planted by the water will grow to be strong and sturdy and have a good root system. Water is the ultimate source of life for a tree, so to be planted by water is to have a regular supply of life itself. ![]() Plants growing near water are easily sustained and can thrive. To be like a tree planted by streams of water is to be one who has a regular supply of nourishment and refreshment. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit” (Jeremiah 17:8). It does not fear when heat comes its leaves are always green. In Psalm 1:3, a person who steers clear of the ungodly and delights in God’s Word is like “a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither-whatever they do prospers.” Likewise, the book of Jeremiah says that those whose confidence is in the LORD are “like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. Trees are frequently mentioned in the Bible and often have significance as a metaphor. ![]() The app allows you to export your complete project to all the common platforms, including iOS, Android, WinRT, Win32 and HTML 5.
