The main advantage of a dedicated bike bag is that it is designed specifically to hold your bike and as such has padding in all the appropriate locations. Being purpose built means it will also have compartments, straps and all the necessary measures to hold its contents and accessories securely.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall—Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU 2016-01). This new standard requires, among other things, that entities measure equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Under ASU 2016-01, entities will no longer be able to recognize unrealized holding gains and losses on equity securities classified today as available for sale in other comprehensive income and they will no longer be able to use the cost method of accounting for equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values. This new standard does not change the guidance for classifying and measuring investments in debt securities and loans. ASU 2016-01 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company does not anticipate a material impact on its consolidated financial statements at the time of adoption of this new standard.

Consistency is one of our biggest challenges. Working in large-scale cannabis growing, you must maintain consistency and quality. To ensure this, we meticulously follow precise practices: using an irrigation and nutrients system, performing in-field daily plant inspection to detect problems and bad insects, using a formulated growth substrate, working closely with qualified cannabis laboratories to ensure the plant’s quality and using statistical analytical methods to ensure consistency and repetition.

I rarely go to the doctor, and I know that as an American, I am being massively ripped off at every turn but I do believe that participating in an exchange makes the system stronger for other people. That might not be true, but it feels true?

Trays up to 6 feet wide and 20 feet long can be loaded with potted plants in the work area, then transported by cart or conveyor to the growing area. The trays can be moved back to the work area for spacing, maintenance or harvesting. The roller conveyor system uses flat bottom trays that ride on trolley wheels or fixed casters attached to support rails. In a second type of system, the rollers are attached to each tray and ride on the pipe rails. A low-cost transport cart can be used to move the trays from the propagation area to the veg spaces, then to flower areas. An alternate manual system uses rails with attached plastic trolley wheels.

She agreed to it in part, she says, because she sits on the board of Sundance with Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures production president Sean Bailey. When DuVernay was learning about Hollywood, she witnessed cronyism born of common experience and casual proximity. “All the social ways that people know each other in the industry, I live a different life,” she says. “There are no agents that are just my homies. The wives who know each other, the kids who know each other. I’m outside of that.” But she had found a crony in Bailey; she knew he would let her make the kind of movie she wanted to make, with the people she wanted to make it with.

Shaked: Because of professor Raphael Mechoulam of The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, who isolated the active component in cannabis (THC) in 1964 and paved the road for major research funding that started pouring in from leading universities in the U.S. at a time when no research involving cannabis was allowed in the U.S. Soon Israel became a leader of cannabis research, and when medical cannabis was permitted for cancer patients and pain-related illnesses in the early ’90s, cultivation followed, giving the growers an edge over other countries through their acquired experience.
