Plans are been made ahead, and if I go for the HK trip, I will nto get a chance to go to australia.\nEach time I hear how my aunt describe beautiful the australia is, I feel so looking forward to go for it.\nThe most stuff I would miss in HK would be the eating and eating. But now, I could only see them eat...\nKane's wrath, is one of the expansion for the command and conquer tiberium war. I am so looking forward for it, because the tiberium war is really awesome.

Now, one writer has used Google to name a character in his new novel.\nIn a literary experiment, author Robin Sloan (pictured) built a Google Adwords campaign, exploring what people are looking for when they click on search terms related to his novel, including “mystery, detective story, sherlock holmes, noir,” and others. Then, by spending a little bit of money, Sloan actually tested out a number of different names for the protagonist of his novel–finding out which name drew the most hits from Google users.

{"text": "Weekend Wanderings – Parks in Heidelberg\nThat would be parks in Heidelberg, Australia, a beautiful part of the city of Melbourne that seems to be largely unknown about. One of the best kept secrets if you ask me. When we first moved to this area over 20 years ago, we didn’t like it. Not at first, suburban blues is what one friend said to us. As time went on we learned to appreciate this unique area and now we love living here. So many people who come to our place for the first time are amazed that their are paddocks across the road with horses in them. It is like living in the country, but we are not that far from the city.\nI went out early, and started taking photos just before sunrise. I wanted to get a lovely sunrise coming up behind the tress, but as it always is with my luck, there wasn’t much of one. Perhaps, I just need to keep going out.\nAs the sun came up the landscape was covered in this beautiful golden glow. It was a spectacular morning and a great morning for photos. I almost didn’t know where to start. I did start with the building above, though this wasn’t the first photo. You will see the first photo in the gallery. The area was covered with mist, but by the time I got the camera out, it had pretty much disappeared. I had planned on going earlier, but I slept in.\nAlmost forgot to mention that this area above was used for the fairground scene in the movie Charlotte’s web. Apparently they painted all the trees in autumn colours so it would look like autumn.\nLike the photos I showed you last week, there are lots of places for water around here. Lots of swamps, Billabongs and such, but with the summer they have all dried up. Funny we had all that hot weather for about two weeks, and that was about it, but we haven’t had much rain. The leaves are starting to change colours now, so winter is on the way.\nI took this shot especially because can you see the footprints in the foreground? I am not an expert, but I would say they are from a wombat. Obviously decided this was not the right path, you can see where it went up on the left. Something that people don’t realise is how much wildlife lives in our local parks. The other evening when I walking in another part with a friend we saw about 15 Kangaroos grazing on the grasses. She was really excited, she doesn’t live around here, close, but I was, well, we see them all the time.\nThere are lots of walking and bike tracks through the parks and first thing in the morning there are lots of people out walking, jogging or cycling. It is a thriving community and we all know what we have here.\nThese old silos are just down the road from me. I drive past them nearly everyday, but I have found them to be so hard to photograph in the past. I had tried photographing them years ago, but thought they didn’t photograph very well, so hadn’t tried again. However lately, I keep driving past them thinking there must be a way, and it might depend on the light etc. I thought I should just start photographing them over and over, see what happens.\nI was going to take photos of them this morning, but then realised I had the 14-24mm lens on the camera, so thought “what is the point”. Then as I was heading home I saw the golden light on them and knew I just had to try. They aren’t too shabby, but would have been better with a different lens. Must take more than one lens with me when I go out. Lesson learned, I hope.\nI have more photos of the glorious morning in Heidelberg, I hope yours is good today as well. You know, I’ve said before how I don’t think I am very good at landscape photography, but I have this whole landscape world at my doorstep, maybe it is time I practiced more. Here is the gallery.\nThank you for sharing these wonderful photos of your “neighborhood”. The silos are glorious, what great light! Also the building has wonderful light. My favorite is the one with the cracks with the footprints. I don’t know what that animal is…it must be an aussie animal haha.\nI think sometimes we take the area we live in for granted. I do love this place, so it is time I photographed it. The light was so wonderful this morning, perfect really. The footprints belong to a wombat, I think. Thanks Laura.\nI had to google wombat. We don’t have those here. I googled it and it’s native to Australia and is an Herbivore! Learn something new every day. :)\nThey are also nocturnal so we hardly ever seen them. :)\nBeautiful work!\nThank you.\nYou are welcome!\n:)\nLove the early morning glow!\nIt was very nice this morning, just glorious.\nCongratulations on being featured on Freshly Pressed.\nThank you so much.\nI saw where you were Freshly Pressed! Well it’s about time….. Congratulations there Ms Cole….. Certainly deserved…. finally..You are so much more than photography! You are Photographic Artistry..Spectacular Artwork indeed……. claudy\nThank you Claudy, it was rather a shock. Thank you so much for what you have said.\nSo gifted and so humble to boot…..Wow! You’re the best! Bet there are even bigger “shocks” in your future… And no I’m not psychic! I just have seen your artwork….\nThank you, I really want that to happen, it would be great if it did.\nLovely golden light…..😊\nI loved the light too, it was a good compensation for not giving me a good sunrise. :)\nWhat a lovely place.\nI love here Gypsy, it is a great place to live.\nLovely landscapes especially the crossed tree trunks and the silos. Sunrises are fickle things, I’ll go weeks without anything special (and I’m always up at that time) and then boom a few days in a row there’ll be spectacular clouds and colour. It’s just being there ‘in case’, but I am a morning person :) Heidelberg looks very country.\nI think that is the problem I have, is I don’t go out enough, I am always up too, but I am usually on my computer. Heidelberg is definitely very country like in some areas, it is so wonderful that land like this has been left for everyone to enjoy and hasn’t been covered in houses. Thanks Lee.\nI love the silos and the house shot. They are absolutely glowing and glowing of warmth. Your area seems deserted but I think you managed to make it feel welcoming in these images of yours. Is it a big area like this around there? Hope you are enjoying the weekend, Leanne. I know I am, what precious days of the week :)\nThey are Mabel, when I saw the light on them I knew I had to get out and take some photos of them. It isn’t really deserted, there were people out everywhere, I just waited until they left to get my photos. We are very close to the Austin Hospital, so it is quite a busy little place. I am enjoying it, I met a fellow blogger from Queensland today, it was really nice. We walked around the city and then I bought her a drink at Chloe’s bar in Young and Jackson. Sounds like you are having a great time. Have you been to Moomba?\nYou sure know how to make your photos artistic and work around people in your way. I’ve always wondered how to incorporate people nicely and make them fit in photos. Very challenging.\nSounds like you and your Queensland blogger friend had fun! You seem to know the good drinking spots in the city! I was in the city too today, wandered around Fed Square and Bourke St. Not planning on seeing the Moomba festivities this weekend, just too tired from a very unpredictable week.\nLots of experience Mabel, though it was easier there, much harder to do in the city. It is a challenge.\nWe did have fun, it was really nice. We might have seen one another, haha. We were wandering around Fed Square. No, I don’t think I will be photographing it either, or going, too much other stuff on this weekend.\nThe whole feeling in this post is just lovely Leanne .\nThank you so much Poppytump, it was a gorgeous morning to go out and take photos. I was really surprised at how much there was to photograph, I will have to do it more, different time etc.\nLove that early fall light in the mornings – the angle is so kind… My favorite is the one with the mist behind the trees (0094). The crossed tree trunks are very cool too :)\nI wondered if the light was because Autumn is coming. I didn’t think it was usually that golden in the morning. Thank you Marie, I really want to get more of that mist, will have to go out more. :)\nlove the ones shot ‘through’ the reeds. And we have a Heidelberg here too\nThere are a few Heidelberg’s around the world. I do love mine though, LOL. Thank you.\nIt looks beautiful Leanne. When I saw your headline, my first thought was Heidelberg Germany! SD\nThat is what I thought people would think, haha, it is a beautiful part of the world, and so much amazing when you consider it is in the middle of suburbia. Thank you.\nFirst, congratulations on being Freshly Pressed. I think they picked just the right post from you as it shows so much of a cross section of your work…some I had not seen before, either. I was particularly drawn, as others were, to the sheep on the bridge. Excellent! I have a challenge for you. If you have access to the silos, how about going right up to them in that same light and lying on the ground looking up with that brilliant blue sky countering the warm light…? Make ‘monuments’ of them…!?\nThank you so much, it was very overwhelming, but also wonderful. Ah the sheep on the bridge, it was my first attempt at compositing, and it has surprised me how much people seem to like it. I like your challenge and would take it on, and is exactly what I would like to do, but I can’t get access. I’ve tried. It is public property, but the land is agistered, so the gates are locked and there is livestock in, horses at the moment, other times cows.\nYay, it’s my area too! :) After spending time in dirty cities like New York, I certainly appreciate this area more than ever when I come back! Great photos. And thanks for inspiring me to haul myself out of bed (I’m awake anyway!) and check the sunrise.\nHey Keira, so another person from my area. It is a great place, I think we are so lucky around here. You’re welcome, I hope you have better luck than I do when it comes to getting sunrises. Thanks.\nLove your selections which give us a sense of place –\nThank you Diana, there were so many areas to photograph, I think you will see more of it yet.\nThe X-shaped tree trunks are so cool!\nOur wishing tree. Thanks Rahreee\nLove seeing these pics of your surrounds. A lovely place to live!\nI really enjoy wandering like this where we are. There’s always ‘more to see’ than what first meets the eye.\nGorgeous morning light and love those footprints :D They do look ‘wombat-y’.\nThank you Robyn, it is wonderful place where we live. I should do it more often, I just don’t do it enough. I agree, once you start taking photos it is hard to work out where to stop.\nThe light was brilliant, ah those footprints, yes, I think they are from a wombat too. :)\nI love the house, it positively glows! I also like the cattails and weeds. Oh, and the mud drying! When I was three I tried to walk across dried mud – and it was not dry.\nOh you mean the changing rooms/club house, they do glow the light on them was amazing. I love cattails and it is great to take some photos of them. Oh, I know, I have found the same thing, you suddenly start sinking, LOL. Thank you Jackie.\nWhat a wonderful park! I love it! So, what is an Australian winter like?\nI love it too, was walking around there this morning. Our winters are cold, but we don’t get any snow. I think California winters are about the same as ours. It gets cold, but not below zero. The sun is always warm, we get some frosts, and fog, and usually a lot of rain, but that is all. Mild, is probably a good way to describe them, though ours are colder than northern Australia.\nThat sounds like a great winter! :) We are due for more snow and colder weather tomorrow and Thursday. Oh well, spring doesn’t officially start here until March 21 anyway. We enjoyed near 60 degrees Fahrenheit today. It was just lovely and I got a bunch of nice, fun, and different pictures today.\nYeah, it is a lot better than most placed, though we don’t get any snow ever, which is a shame. I was 29 before I saw snow for the first time, and I had to go overseas to see it. Sorry to hear that you are in for more bad weather, but soon you will be complaining about the heat, haha, isn’t it always the way.\nThe trees crossing over the path… verra cool.\nIt is that, it is called the wishing tree, I believe, people have their photos taken under it."}

{"text": "Is The Washington Post a rag for liberal Democrats? It’s certainly striving for that reputation today. On the front page (above the fold) is this story, trying to ruin another GOP presidential hopeful like Chris Christie: “Gov. Walker, eyeing 2016, faces fallout from probes: Release of ex-aide’s e-mails could stall rise of national Republican.”\nMeanwhile, on the front page of the Style section is a picture of ex-Republican Charlie Crist hugging Barack Obama on a card that says “Happy Hug-iversary.” The headline over the aticle is “Charlie Crist: Embraceable Blue.” Newly arrived Post reporter Ben Terris reports Crist loves a good hug:\nFORT MYERS, Fla. —?”\nThis leads in to that memorable scene with Crist hugging Obama and his \"stimulus\" program in February of 2009, and Terris quotes from liberal “fake conservative” Stephen Colbert, who called it a “terrorist nipple bump.” Eventually, Crist lost a Senate primary to Marco Rubio, a political shocker.\nTerris did explore how Charlie Crist has changed his positions like a political chameleon, and lets GOP consulant say Crist “has all the intellectual horsepower of yogurt...But I admire his political skills. If [GOP Governor] Rick Scott could work a room like Charlie Crist, he’d be up by 25 points.”\nThe pull quote for Post glancers said “Democrats might be slow to embrace him, but they’ll get there. The reality will kick in that he’s the best shot,” said Will Prather, a former chairman of the Lee County Democratic Party. This is the gooey ending of the story:\n.\nThe funny part of the Post’s front page story on Walker is that while two aides were convicted for performing political business on Milwaukee County time, Walker was not a target:\nProsecutors have said Walker was never a target, and he was not charged. Walker said Wednesday that the new disclosures revealed nothing beyond what authorities already had reviewed, and he predicted that Democrats would exaggerate their importance.\nYes -- like the Washington Post-Democrat putting it on the front page, eh?\nThe obvious irony for Post critics is that if the shady use of private e-mails to conduct public business is a front-page outrage, why didn’t the Post do that when it exposed Obama’s Energy Department hacks in the Solyndra scandal?\nAnswer: the Post is a liberal Democrat rag, and doesn’t care who notices it."}

{"text": "I had a plan. I didn’t follow the plan. I rarely follow my plans…but the plan is still necessary for me. The plan gives me a sense of security and control but I stay flexible so I can wander wherever the color and pattern takes me.\nStep 1 of the plan: Find a page from in a journal.\nThis page was Leftover paints often make the first layer in my art journal, and this is no exception.\nStep 2 of the plan: Add more color. The blue filled in the white areas since I am compelled to cover everything with color…\nStep 3 of the plan: Add a moon and ground.\nThe collage paper that I made with my Trio of Houses stencil was just what I needed.\nYou can see how I made this paper in the video Stretch your stencil by turning it on YouTube.\nStep 4 of the plan: Change the plan.\nThe plan was a moon, but before I realized it, I had a person…not in the plan.\nMichelle Ward’s Circle Rays 6 created the beams from her head.\nStep 5 of the plan: Add some words.\nHow’d I have a perfectly matching orange paper? The Gelli Plate. Yes, it can make awesome patterns but it is also a fast way to make sheets of solid colors.\nThen it was so easy to run that paper through my ink jet printer for the quote. Fast and easy as long as I don’t touch the words until they dry…\nI’d love to know when you create do you have a plan? Do you stick to it or wander all around?\nSupplies Used\n- Trio of Houses\n- Circle Rays 6 Stencil\n- Acrylic Paints\n- Stabilo Pencil\n- Gelli Plate\noh, trust me. you are not the only one who doesn’t follow your plan! but it’s wonderful where you end up anyway! love your collage and the step by step images…For me, it’s lots of trial and error, intuitive placement, using up scraps, run to see if there are any stitched bits that will ‘work,’ etc. But the process is so engaging and satisfying! Love your work…\nI agree Dianne- this play is so so so satisfying!\nI plan and schedule the activity and then let the wind take me wherever I need/want to go with it. EG: I schedule a scrapbooking hour and even a certain picture to use but work on whatever paper/technique I choose on the spur of the moment.\nThat’s a great way to to do it!\nChanging the plan is essential isn’t it? Otherwise the life would disappear from your work.\nSo true- I like a plan but never seem to follow it!\nI love this! I usually plan too much then don’t know what to do when I run into a problem or something else.\nThanks Jean!\nI guess I am like you. I like to have a plan but I am proud of my ability to be flexible and deviate. (Although in my art journals specifically, I often don’t have a plan.) Some people in my life (I could name a few…LOL) can ONLY go with the original idea/plan. Not that they were artists, but with my husband and mil, I always had to be sure I wanted to make a suggestion out loud because once a decision was made it was (in my words) “written in concrete” for them. Guess that explains one reason they were not artists!!! Thanks for all you do for all of us!\nI used to work with some people like that! Those of us who change plans drive them nuts (not intentionally)!\nCarolyn I have a lot of plans, and I always promise to my self I am going to follow them, but then on the way comes an opportunity that I need to try, and I need to play and oops there goes my plan. So is it, but I like it\nThat’s the way I like to too Ruth!\nPlan, you can have a plan? Process baby all the way. I like your veering off course….xox\nI am not shocked that you are process based Corrine\nFantastic page, I love it. Sometimes I have a plan & can see the entire project in my head, but once I start things invariably change & the finished piece ends up being completely different.\nThanks Kirsten – things tend to end up differently on paper than how it looked in my head too.\nI try to have a plan BUT during the creative process, I often lose track of my original plan and switch to another plan, LOL. Love how your LO turned out – plan or no plan:)\nI, too, find it difficult to follow a plan! A calendar, yes. A road map, yes. A plan…good intentions, but not likely for me! But, sometimes, like in your post today, veering off plan is a good thing. Kind of like your “happy accidents” on another plane! This one I like…a lot!\nLove it! And so glad I didn’t have to wait too long to see what would become of the pieces from the ‘turning a stencil’ post. Super!!\nI love your site, and your art is my kinda happy! When working on a project, I usually have a general idea, then the art speaks to me and I move in as many directions as dictated. I know that sounds vague, but I actually have conversations with my art!\nThanks for sharing, I always plan something ,but yes never comes out the way it was planned!"}

{"text": "Slugger Peter Alonso should be worth waiting for\nMets prospect Peter Alonso speaks to the media before the first game of a doubleheader against the Marlins at Citi Field on Sept. 12, 2018 Credit: Jim McIsaac\nSitting at Citi Field, perched in front of a microphone, TV cameras at the ready, notebooks flipped open. And Peter Alonso still was able to check his swing Wednesday afternoon.\nIt doesn’t happen very often. Alonso has rapidly made a name for himself, both on and off the field, for taking big hacks. He slugged 36 homers this season, split between Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Las Vegas, to earn the Sterling Award as the Mets’ top organizational position player.\nAlong the way, however, Alonso got some unwanted attention when his agents publicly criticized the Mets for not granting him a September call-up. Alonso soon followed that up by exchanging Twitter barbs with WFAN radio host Chris Carlin, an unconventional course of action for a minor leaguer, to say the least.\n“I think it just kind of got blown out of proportion,” Alonso said. “They gave their honest opinion. Someone said something about them, and I thought it was just wrong.”\nWhen the Mets trotted Alonso out for Wednesday’s news conference, he showed zero regret, so we’ll give him credit for digging in at the plate. He also smartly passed on adding any more fuel to this fading debate, a point no doubt stressed to him in his meeting with the Mets’ front office during his brief taste of Flushing.\n“I had a conversation with Omar [Minaya] and he said it was just like a business decision, an organizational decision,” Alonso said. “I respect that. I’m just going to keep continuing to get better.”\nAh, yes. The business decision. There’s no need to rehash that all over again, other than to say the Mets had a twofold advantage in delaying Alonso’s promotion. They didn’t need to use a 40-man roster spot on him, thereby saving it for someone they have to protect from the Rule 5 draft this winter. And the Mets also held off on starting his service-time clock, a practice that every other team routinely employs.\nBut that’s little consolation to Alonso, or the rest of us, who were anxious to see if his light-tower power would translate to Citi Field. In that sense, we feel robbed, especially as the Mets trudge onward to another 70-plus win season.\nThe company line has involved whispers about his questionable defensive ability at first base, but that could be said about half of the Mets’ major-league roster. It’s a position that’s currently manned by Wilmer Flores and Jay Bruce, with the occasional cameo by Dom Smith -- the only real first baseman of the bunch. So we’re not talking a high bar here.\n“But at the end of day,” Alonso said, “I’ve got to prove that I can.”\nHe’s doing a pretty good job climbing the learning curve in every other aspect. After demolishing the Eastern League with 15 homers and a 1.012 OPS in the first 65 games, Alonso experienced a bit of an adjustment period at Vegas, despite the PCL’s reputation as a hitter’s paradise. After 37 games in the desert, Alonso was batting .220 (31-for-141) with 47 Ks and a .797 OPS. Though expected in most transitions, it was sobering nonetheless.\n“A lot of the pitchers are more refined,” Alonso said. “That was the first time I had ever seen right-on-right changeups. It’s a different level of breaking balls.”\nThen Alonso did what the Mets, or any team, dreams about for their top prospects. He figured it out and hurdled the challenge. Over his final 30 games, Alonso hit .308 (36-for-117) with 12 home runs and a 1.115 OPS. That also included crushing a walk-off homer in the season finale, on what will end up being the last pitch ever thrown at the 51s Cashman Field. Alonso enjoyed retelling that story Wednesday, calling it “sweet redemption” against the Sacramento pitcher who got him earlier.\nWe haven’t seen all that much of Alonso, other than his impressive stats and a thoroughly entertaining Futures Game appearance at Nationals Park, where he drilled a rainbow 415-foot homer. He also got points for blowing kisses to his family in the stands as he circled the bases. So far, to us, there’s a lot to like. And that includes his attitude.\n“I’m disappointed, not being here,” Alonso said. “I have to just trust the process. I’m just going to use that as motivation to get better for next year. Have a good winter, getting faster, stronger, and show up for camp ready to go.”\nHe can’t get here soon enough."}

The Landfill Deregulation Act (SB 328) will reduce the current five-mile buffer to 1500 feet for wildlife refuges and parks in the state.\nAccording to Tom Bean, government-affairs director for the North Carolina Wildlife Federation, removing the buffer adds up to profit for private landfills.\n“The landfill is there and their business is to sell that landfill space to customers who are prepared to pay,” he said. “That’s going to mean that there’s going to be solid waste coming from out of state.”\nBean said the current requirement for a five-mile buffer is important to protect some of the state’s greatest resources.\n“Buffers are important, because without them it’s going to reduce public enjoyment of these recreational areas because of the odor, noise, vehicular activity and the unattractive landscape,” he said.\nTen wildlife refuges in the state are located near landfill sites, and six of them are in the coastal plain, which Bean said makes the potential for harm to the environment even greater.\nSupporters of the bill say the extra space is needed for waste produced in the state. North Carolina’s Department of Environment and Natural Resources estimates the current landfill capacity will last another 30 years, without the construction of new landfills.\nSB 328 will now move on to the State House.

{"text": "Moms get all the attention when they’re expecting—and while I can’t argue with that, dads should be shown some love too. After all, they’re a big part of the whole process.\nWith that in mind—what is a diaper party and how to throw one should be something every parent-to-be knows about!\nSo… What Is a Diaper Party?\nA diaper party is the equivalent of a baby shower, but for the daddy. Fathers deserve fun, friends, and gifts too! Only the gifts are usually… Well, diapers. But let’s be honest—babies can get expensive, and none of us would mind a little help stocking up.\nDid you know that parents of a newborn can change up to 10 diapers a day for the first month or so? That’s a poop load of dirty nappies. Do you see why a diaper party is a good idea?\nBut really—when it comes to a diaper party, think of a bunch of guys having a beer and a barbecue. It’s not usually as meticulously planned as a baby shower, nor is it as gushy. Still, it’s a chance for the proud dad to relax with his buds and be congratulated (and given many, many diapers).\nDudes, drinks, and diapers.\nWhy Throw a Diaper Party?\nBecause dads deserve it! I know, I know—we ladies do all the hard work when it comes to carrying and giving birth to babies. But let’s not forget who’s by our side through all the rough times, as well as the happy ones.\nWhether this is their first baby or their sixth, dads are just as important as moms. Dads have many important jobs.\nThey’re going to be the male role model this little guy or girl looks up to and loves. They’re going to be baby-proofing the house. And they’re going to be dealing with us when we’re hormonal and suffering from morning sickness and feeling like a whale, so in all honesty, they deserve a good party.\nThe other great reason to throw a diaper party (especially for a first-time dad) is that his already-dad friends can offer some good advice on what lies ahead. Even for those who may not be first-timers, a bit of chill and advice can never be a bad thing.\nWho Hosts a Diaper Party?\nJust as moms-to-be don’t host their own baby showers, dad-to-be’s friends will host their diaper party. That doesn’t mean it has to be secret, though—if D2B is so inclined, he could get quite involved in it (if his buddies allow it!).\nBut usually, it’s the responsibility of his best buds to plan and host a great diaper bash for dad-to-be. Usually, this is a “boy’s night out”/”boy’s BBQ” kind of thing, but if guys and girls like to hang out together, there’s nothing wrong with something bigger and more inclusive.\nHow to Throw One for a Baby Daddy\nIf you have an almost-dad in your midst and he needs a diaper party, here are the areas you should have a look at.\nDiaper Party Theme Ideas\nMen aren’t as fluffy as women, generally. While women can get excited about all kinds of cute or offbeat theme ideas, men appreciate more straightforward planning.\nConsider some of the following more manly ideas for diaper party themes:\n- Baby Ball Game (for the sports buffs).\n- Call of Doody (for the gamers dads).\n- Drinks & Diapers (or Huggies & Chuggies).\n- Survivor (daddy-to-be survival kit).\n- Baby BBQ (for the BBQ enthusiast!).\nOf course, if your daddy-to-be isn’t into themes or fuss, you can have a simple barbecue and hangout.\nDiaper Party Invitation Ideas\nEvery special occasion needs an eye-catching invite. It doesn’t have to be fancy—it just needs to suit the man of the hour and give all the relevant information.\n- Choose colors that suit your theme and your guy.\n- A pun is always a good idea.\n- If you’re short on ideas, check Pinterest or Canva!\nDiaper Party Games Ideas\nSome guys will just want to hang out with their group and relax and chat. There’s nothing wrong with that. Others might be keen for some fun and raucous laughter, and some games may be in order.\nUp first, my favorite:\nChocolate Diapers\nThis is hilarious, and men enjoy it just as much (maybe more) than women do. It will need someone to set it up during the party. You’ll need a packet of diapers and a stash of chocolate bars. Here’s how it works:\n- Open a pack of diapers.\n- Melt different bars of chocolate into the middle of each diaper.\n- Yes—this looks like poop.\n- Each person will smell and taste the chocolate and guess what chocolate it is (pro tip: don’t lick—dip fingers in!).\n- Once everyone has been through it, reveal what chocolate it was.\n- Those who get it right get a point.\n- Most points at the end gets a prize!\nMy Water Broke\nThis is simple but funny, and all about the luck of the draw (or your body temperature).\n- Buy a packet of small, plastic baby-shaped toys.\n- Freeze each one into an ice block.\n- Ask each guest to take one.\n- When the ice melts and the baby is free, they should shout, “My water broke.”\n- The first one gets a prize.\nDiaper Notes\nAnother simple but fun one that will keep giving for months to come!\n- Open the packs of diapers.\n- Give everyone a Sharpie.\n- Let them loose to write messages on the diapers.\n- These can be silly, sweet, or encouraging!\n- Pack the diapers back into packs.\n- The messages will be appreciated when in the midst of a nasty nappy-changing incident.\nIf your guy’s a more chilled, less gamey person, he can simply spend some time playing pool, darts, foosball, or whatever he would usually do with his buds.\nDiaper Party Food Ideas\nA diaper party menu usually differs from a baby shower’s food stash. Ladies find baby-shaped cupcakes adorable, but men probably just find them tasty. Choose some solid man-food to keep everyone well-fed and content:\n- Crisps.\n- Beef jerky.\n- Mixed nuts.\n- Cookies.\nI’d recommend a meal like a BBQ rather than finger-foods, but again, you know him best—go with something he likes!\nDiaper Party Decor Ideas\nWill a group of men hanging out, eating, drinking, and being merry even notice decorations? Most likely not. If your man’s one who’s unusually attentive in that regard, some classy, neutral-colored, baby-related decor would do the trick.\nIf he’s a bit of a joker, it may be fun to deck the house/yard/venue out in full-on baby decor!\nDiaper Party Gift Ideas\nThis is an easy one:\n- Diapers.\n- Diapers.\n- Bigger diapers.\n- Maybe another brand of diapers.\n- Smaller diapers.\n- Swim diapers.\n- Cloth diapers.\n- More diapers!\nThere’s no need for baby bottles, clothes, or anything of that sort. Those types of things will be stocked up at mom’s baby shower! But, if you’re so inclined, a small, thoughtful gift for dad is always appreciated.\nDiaper Party FAQs\nAre you thinking of having a diaper party? Here are some questions you may not know you have yet about how to throw one.\nWhat Size Diapers Do I Ask For?\nI’d recommend asking for a variety—if everyone brings newborn diapers, you might not be able to use them all before your little one outgrows them.\nAn online checklist is a good idea. Your guests can check off the size they’ve bought, so you make sure you’re getting a well-rounded stash.\nWhat About Cloth Diapers?\nCloth diapers may sound weird to some, but they’re not as bad as you may think. In fact, they’re vastly more environmentally-friendly than disposable ones.\nIf you’ve made a choice to use cloth diapers, you may wonder how to do this diaper party thing. But a cloth diaper is still a diaper! If everyone could buy a cloth diaper instead of a pack of disposables, that’s a bonus.\nCan I Host a Joint Diaper Party/Baby Shower?\nSure, you can. Some couples may prefer having a joint celebration anyway, especially if they share many friends. This is a totally personal thing.\nIs It a Good Idea to Have a Surprise Diaper Party?\nThis also depends. If you’re planning a joint party, it could be a little more complicated, but if you can get both of the parents-to-be in the same place for a few hours without the chance of cancellation, it could work.\nIt does help, though, if you have one of the couple on your side. You can still surprise the other person—and you’ll get some insight into their likes, dislikes, and interests if you aren’t sure.\nPersonally, I believe a diaper party shouldn’t be a secret! Nobody wants to be surprised while they’re feeling stressed and looking forward to a quiet afternoon of nothing. Having the expectant dad in on the party from the start is helpful and can help build the excitement as party time gets closer.\nLast Tips and Tricks\n- If you don’t have space for all those diapers, you could have a “Diaper Fundraiser,” where each friend donates enough money to cover a pack or a few.\n- Make a baby-related playlist for background music.\n- Create a “Daddy Survival Kit,” including things like aspirin, energy drinks, midnight snacks, and emergency earplugs.\n- If it would work, give your guy a boy’s weekend away. Whether he’s into fishing, camping, or skiing, if you can swing it, a weekend would be a great way to appreciate him in advance.\nSummary\nIf your man is a soon-to-be daddy, congratulations to both of you. Pass along these tips and tricks to his buddies so they can throw him an epic diaper party that he won’t soon forget.\nDads don’t get as much credit as they deserve, but let’s be honest—none of this would be the same without them, and they deserve all the diapers and love in the world."}

{"text": "Brisbane is in the humid sub-tropics. Word on the street is that there are over 300 days on sunshine a year up here. Feels about right. Of course, it being the sub-tropics, in the summertime those sunshine-y days are interspersed with raging thunderstorms and torrential rains. Since we moved here, there were the crazy floods during the summer of 2011 that saw the Brisbane River break its banks and wreak all kinds of havoc, then the wild storms that hit us last year smashing windows and roofs and cutting off power to half of Brisbane, and this weekend just past two massive cyclones hit the Queensland Coast pulling houses into the ocean and devastating the mid-coast.\nWe were lucky here in Brisbane. The cyclones petered out before reaching us. What we did get, though, were the rains. At the moment damp is everywhere. It’s infiltrated the foundations. At first the cool weather was a welcome break from the blazing sunshine. But soon the wet started to take over. S and W went walking on Friday morning just after the cyclones made landfall – W now has a cold and S’s sandals sprouted a fine covering of pale green mold overnight. The water has seeped in under the house and through the floor, soaking the rug. Nothing dries; our towels are perpetually damp, as is the washing. Mold has started growing on the walls. Everything smells… wet.\nThis is life in the sub-tropics.\nAlong with the creeping damp, the rain brings everyone’s gardens to life. You can almost see the grass growing. The jacaranda tree sweeping over our front garden now reaches its velvet-green fronds down onto the stairs so that we have to duck everytime we leave the house. Everywhere you look the world seems to be steeped in bright shades of green.\nSo to keep the sunshine alive in the midst of all this rain, Green Papaya Salad. This is one of my most favourite Thai dishes. It is simple and full of bold flavours. The spicy kick of red chilli, the sweet-sour of the tamarind sauce. It is also wonderfully textured and crunchy, with bright colours to keep things pretty.\nAn ideal summer salad. Though traditionally made with shrimp paste (and often fish sauce too), I’ve used tamarind paste in this version to keep it vegetarian. If you’re preparing this ahead of time, keep the sauce separate until you’re ready to serve – that way everything will stay nice and crisp. Serve this salad alongside some crispy fried tofu and a bowl of rice, or even some steamed salmon if you roll that way. However you choose, it will be totally delicious.\nEnjoy!\nSarah x\nGreen Papaya Salad\nIngredients\n1 medium-sized green papaya\n1 – 2 carrots\nHandful fresh mint leaves\nHandful bean shoots\nJuice of 1 – 2 limes\n1 1/2 tbsps tamarind paste\n1 tbsp palm sugar\n1 tbsp sesame oil\n1/2 tbsp tamari\n2 – 3 birds eye chillies\n1/4 cup roasted peanuts\nMethod\nUsing a mandoline or box grater coarsely shred the green papaya and the carrot. Combine them in a large bowl along with the mint leaves and bean shoots.\nFinely chop the chillies and grate the palm sugar.\nIn a small jar make the dressing by whisking together the chillies and palm sugar along with the lime juice, tamarind paste, sugar, sesame oil, and tamari.\nPour the dressing over the shredded green papaya mixture, add the peanuts, and stir to thoroughly combine. Eat immediately, while everything is still crunchy.\nServes 3 – 4.\n4 Comments\nso many colours!! Love it ❤\nLet me know how it turns out if you make it!\nHandful measurements are my favorite 🙂\nMe too! Makes cooking that much easier."}

{"text": "\nI first watched 'Nature Of The Beast' about six years ago and was impressed by it. A second viewing yesterday confirmed my opinion, though my enjoyment was slightly lessened as the twist ending was obviously no longer a surprise. I can't see why this movie hasn't received more attention. Perhaps because the two leads Eric Roberts ('Runaway Train', 'The Immortals') and Lance Henriksen ('Near Dark', 'The Quick And The Dead'), both great favourites of mine, have made way too many stupid action direct-to-video movies and people just think this one is more of the same. It isn't, it's much better than that. Roberts and Henriksen both excel in this tense and unpredictable road movie. I don't want to give much away as the less you know before you watch it the more you will get out of it. Sure it's a cheesy b-grade thriller, but it's a superior example of the genre. Director Victor Salva went on to make 'Jeepers Creepers', a movie I haven't seen at the time of writing this. Hopefully the success of that movie will create some interest in his previous efforts, especially this one.\nOh, and if you're a Brion James ('Blade Runner', 'Crimewave') fan like myself, be warned, he doesn't appear until towards the end, and only for one scene.

{"text": "The Future of Textbooks is Increasingly Digital, Report Says\nAccording to a recent report from the Campus Computing Survey, textbooks and course materials are headed toward becoming entirely digitized.\nThe report, “Going Digital: Faculty Perspectives on Digital and OER Course Materials,” finds that the key factors that come into play when college faculty members make decisions pertaining to textbooks and other course materials include the level of quality and the cost involved.\nFindings from a survey taking place between fall 2015 and winter 2016 of 2,902 college and university faculty at 29 two- and four-year institutions discovered 97% of those surveyed consider their own assessment of quality to be the deciding factor when selecting course materials. Cost was found to be the second most important factor.\nA separate report from the National Association of College Stores (NACS) notes that the traditional method of choosing course content is currently being challenged as digital players, open courseware, open educational resources (OER) and adaptive, personalized learning all offer reduced costs and improved academic outcomes.\nThe NACS report goes on to suggest that other forces are at play, including an increased movement toward participation in online courses, as more students begin to access learning materials online and in digital form. In addition, there has been a rise in the number of students who rent new or used textbooks online, with some going as far as using legal and illegal download websites.\n“[Also,] Amazon has entered the college learning content ecosystem with its Amazon Campus Program,” notes the report. “Its scale, brand power, and technology leadership is a game changer.”\nWhile faculty members in the CCS report suggest that quality is their highest measure when making decisions concerning textbooks and course materials, and the NACS report finds personalization and analytics functions to be valued features in digital textbooks, only 45% of those surveyed in the CCS report said digital course materials offered a significant value that could not be found in print materials. Just 44% said they would be more likely to use digital textbooks if reports on course performance were included.\nIn addition, only 35% said digital course materials would offer a better learning experience than print, and 27% considered digital course materials to have a beneficial impact on student learning when compared to print materials.\n“While the transition from print to digital course materials may be inevitable,” stated Fred Weber, CEO of ICBA, “these new data make two things clear. First is that the pace of change is much slower than anticipated by publishers, administrators, digital advocates, and campus IT professionals. And second, most faculty are not convinced that digital products have a positive impact on student learning outcomes.”\nCasey Green, founding director of the Campus Computing Project and the conductor of the ICBA survey, said another issue involved was access. Green went on to say that while faculty members noted that putting materials on a digital platform greatly lowered the cost associated with accessing them, many faculty members, especially those at community colleges, said their students do not own the tech platforms required to access the content.\n02"}

{"text": "Here are some things we know to be true about being a bibliophile.\nIf we see someone reading the same book as us:\nThe true way to make us happy is to give us more books.\nWe have priorities.\nEven our pets are well read.\nWe have many book boyfriends.\nWe’re obsessed with the smell of books.\nWe experience book hangover on a regular basis.\nWe aren’t afraid to announce to the world who we truly are.\nMost of us own ereaders but we still read real books.\nWe identify with Elizabeth from Pride & Prejudice…\n…and Belle from Beauty and the Beast\nWe only judge people by the contents of their bookshelf.\nIf we’re going to use a pick up line, it’s going to be gloriously dorky.\nWe get ridiculously excited over new book releases.\nWe get the feels. Lots and lots of feels.\nYes , yes and yes! This list couldn’t be more spot on!\nThis post makes me SO HAPPY. Seriously. Everything’s TOO TRUE.\nLol! So true!\nI have book hangovers especially after reading the final book in the series. Just read Maximum Ride Nevermore and can’t stop thinking about it….\nSo true!!! These are the true confessions are a book nerd… Also 8 hours of sleep is for people who don’t read…because a good book will keep you up all night, and you don’t even care that you didn’t get enough sleep. That’s why coffee was invented!!\nYep. These are pretty much the real deal.\nLove number 1!\nAlso, there must be a way to share the love of reading with some Buddy the Elf gifs.\nAnother truth: When reading a good book we hear nothing at all because we are too caught up in the story.\nSo many of those are very, very true. =)\nLove this list! It is so true… all of it!\nThis is all very true!!!!!!!\nHaha, these are all just SO TRUE! And I wouldn’t have it any other way.\nOh. My. GAWD. You guys know me so well! *Mind Blown*\nHaha yes! How’d you know all of that about me? You’re not watching me are you? 0.o *glances behind bookshelf* Hmm.\nThis. Is. EPIC.\nOh my gosh everything on here is so spot on! It’s like you’re in my head! Haha! Fantastic post!\nAll of the above plus sometimes a book gets me so emotional happy/angry/sad that I HAVE to give myself a time out !!!\nI think I’m guilty of most of this! XD SO EPIC!\nso true with all of these\nHilarious! Love it!\ncheck, check and check!\nI love the book hangover concept. I’ve never quite ben able to put my finger on the inability I sometimes have to move on. So true. And of course, every book dork goes straight to the bookshelf whenever visiting a friend for the first time. Thanks for this great list.\nI love this! They are all so true!\nLOL I absolutely love the first one! “Did we just become best friends?” YEP! That’s so true!!\nMel @ Book Nerd Reviews\nThis is perfect haha.\nI don’t own an ereader though. I prefer real books.\nEVERYTHING ON HERE IS SO TRUE. On a huge YES on the book boy friends part. hah! I have a new one almost everyday.\nYep, I’d have to agree with all of the above statements.\nyes…yes…yes….\nBooks give you endorphins…endorphins make you happy…happy people don’t kill their husbands\nhahahaha\nNothing like an Elle Woods quote modified\nLove this!! and so true!!! The best friends one is my favorite! =D\nLove it!\nThis is the most honest thing I’ve ever read!\nPerfect List!!\n*GUILTY*\nAnd ooh, I want a shirt that says, “Say it loud, say it proud, I’m a book geek.”\nAMAZZZINNNGG.\nI’m gonna wear it every day. XD\nThe only thing id add would be: no matter how irrational it seems to other people, if we REALLY love a book we’ll own more than one copy or version. For example: The Mortal Instruments series I have hardback, e-book, and audio book.\nYes to all!Awesome-est Post Ever!\nI would add, “We cry like we’ve lost a dear friend whenever a nearby bookstore closes.”\n(Found out two days ago that the B&N five minutes away is shutting down in February…sniff, sniff.)\nguilty over everything!*freaked*\nThis post is absolute perfection!\nLOL this is all so true i wouldn’t put it any other way and i am totally the book sniffer!!!!\nExcept for the part about the ereader. I adore mine and don’t have to physically hold a book again. Esp. as I read old books, and the dictionary feature is addicting.\nBook hangovers! LOL! I get those all the time-now I know what to call it!\nNeeds 2 be added-Cry like a baby why some one dies in book> I always do that, then I tell everyone I know about the fictional death.\nWe forget that spending time with fictional characters doesn’t actually count as socializing.\nThis list is beyond epic!! Those couldn’t be more true.\nAll is true; guilty as charged, Book hangovers, still trying to get over one, Oh, Beautiful creatures,dreaming about men in our books, cursing how the girls in the books get them; socializing with book characters doesn’t count( sadly that is true , even though I would like it that way, I kinda want to have a lot of friends)\nEveryone you know that when you’re going to a bookstore or library for “five minutes,” it will be at LEAST an hour….\nLove this list!\nI find with books I have learned how to walk without needing to look up from a page, turn to the next page with one hand, and read while still having a conversation with somebody.\nYou forgot the one that says “I am not to be trusted in a bookstore with a credit card.”\nI also laugh out loud in public over things I am reading and anyone with me must be prepared for me to read them the funny bits.\nWe will tell almost ANYONE about the most resent book we read whether they want us to or not. We must spread our good fortune,\n*hysterically laughing* ‘Tis the TRUTH!!!!! EVERY SINGLE ONE!!!!! XD\nReading the same book repeatedly and having people say, “Haven’t you finished that yet?” and having to explain how, if it’s your favourite book, reading it again is as enjoyable as the first time.\nNot only are we obsessed with the smell of books, but we know the difference between the different book smells. Like regular books, and textbooks.\nWe become calmest when we are in places where there are books.\nWe cannot resist books that are free….MY goodness…I go on rampages with free kindle books, and cannot resist the free pile at my local library.\nActually, I should add….My fiance says I’m not allowed to get anymore physical books. :< I am banned…It is all I own…Books, clothes, violin, and writing stuff. Ah…the life of a writer…Lawls.\nhahahahaha LOVE this post!!!\n*giggling* SO guilty of ALL of these!!!… BOOK SNIFFER! HA!\nSniffing the books… guilty… identifying with Belle…. guilty…. In fact just tick them all!! Great list, thanks for reminding us book nerds we are not alone!\nThis perfectly describes me. Good to know someone can relate and understand this perfectly normal yet weird behavior.\nI would like to add to/revise/possibly delete 12. Probably somewhere in the wayback of my mind I do judge, but when I see other bookshelves I am generally all “whee more books! ^.^” and squee when I see ones I like.\nAnd to add another: The only thing more important than my own books are other people’s books.\nWhen borrowing a book I will guard it WITH MY LIFE, usually not letting it out of my sight, and I’ll keep it pristine with almost OCD carefulness. Unless it’s a book from a close friend who has given express permission to not worry, in which case I’ll dogear and underline and highlight to my heart’s content.\nBelle is my spirit princess.\nOh my gosh yes! I hadn’t realized I had it quite that bad. But yep, I’m a total book nerd.\nSo much so that I just have to share this on FB!\nLove the list\nI would totally add “When I buy a purse, it has to be large enough to fit at least one book in it” because all purses totally must pass the book test\nOmg this is so me especially book hang overs. I thought a about the last Harry Potter for days.\nthe fantastic flying books of mr. morris lessmore\nsums it all up for me.\nI love that book. I just checked it out from the library. I read it over and over and over and even slept with it next to me.\nYou wander through a UBS like Howard Carter muttering “Wonderful things, wonderful things!”\nAnd we know what TBR means!\nThis is so true!! Haha\nSOOO true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nHow about “The main reason I own an e-reader is that I have no more room in my apartment for real books.”\nWonderful list..I can identify with each one lol I’m a book nerd for life!\nWe go through the grieving process when our favourite book falls apart from overuse\nIt’s like they read my mind!!!!! :O\nGuilty! I just saw a picture of a page in a book on another site. Being the book nerd that I am, I tried to find out if I had read said book… I saw one sentence. note: one. And I recognized it as a page in the first twilight book. I quickly ran and found my copy of it, turned to the page shown, and found I was right…. I read those books months ago… Sad, yet hilarious that I knew what book it was. ;^)\nAs a book nerd I wanted to show this page to all my friends that call me weird and prove to them that I’m pretty normal :$… Anyway, (for me) another truth would be that if I’m reading a scene where the characters are sneaking around and I’m called to go do something I’d do that thing as quietly as possible as to not sell out the characters X_X\nI die in glass cases of emotion all the time…all the time.\nNothing could be more true, than THIS!!!!!\nBook nerd truth\nWe fear lending our books out to anyone except other book nerds.\nSo tru. None of my friends are book nerds, so I am always a loner, but that doesnt matter. I have got plenty of friends in the books I read\nLove the list, except slight disagreement with wording on this one: “Most of us own ereaders but we still read real books.”\nProblem with the word “real,” I understand the sentiment, but the book is the content not just the packaging. So, ebooks are real too.\nBut other than that love the list!\nBook nerds are the best\nYes! I’m all of those things!!!\nAdd this: One does not simply walk into a bookstore and only buy one. book. It just doesn’t happen"}

{"text": "What a weekend it has proven to be for Celtic. First, third-top Aberdeen, who have been their closest challengers in recent seasons, drop points with a draw away to Partick Thistle. Then, despite being down to 10 men for much of the second half, Brendan Rodgers' side come from behind to beat in-form Rangers to stretch their lead over their Glasgow rivals to nine points. The title is surely on its way back to Celtic Park and, with a Scottish Cup semi-final against Rangers to come, a second domestic treble in a row is tantalisingly within touching distance. That's all from the challengers - and that's all from me. Meanwhile, you can catch the highlights from this weekend's games on Sportscene on BBC Two Scotland starting at 18:00 and there will also be highlights later online.\nLive Reporting\nBy Clive Lindsay\nAll times stated are UK\nRodgers calls for calm\nRangers v Celtic (12:00)\nCeltic manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed goalkeeper Dorus de Vries was ruled out because of an injury and he was considered too much of a risk in a match of this importance.\nAnd, on today's game at Ibrox, he added: \"It’s very important you’re calm and play with concentration.\n\"We’ve been very good in these games and hopefully we can keep that going.\n\"Whatever the result today, we’re still in a very good position after the game.\"\nMcGeouch to make Scotland squad?\nHibernian midfielder Dylan McGeouch is the latest potential newcomer to Alex McLeish's first squad in his second spell as Scotland manager.\nManchester United midfielder Scott McTominay, Hearts goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin and Aberdeen central defender Scott McKenna are expected to be called up for the first time for friendlies against Costa Rica and Hungary.\nWhat new faces would you like to see in the Scotland squad?\nGive us your thoughts on Twitter #bbcsportscot or the BBC Sport Scotland Facebook page.\nHibs' McGeouch impresses Scotland boss\nSpeaking to Rangers TV ahead of today's match, Ibrox manager Graeme Murty said: “Our players are in a good place, they’re nice and bright and hopefully we got some good information into them.\n\"I think it’s going to be a fantastic atmosphere and a great experience for the players, we’re really looking forward to it.\n\"Jamie Murphy has declared himself fit and he offers a good balance to our side. Jamie has a degree of calmness and I think that could be important.\n“It’s a boost for us and a boost for him, but we always had Jason Cummings ready to go.\n“I’ve said to the players it’s about belief today – they have the talent, they have the intensity, can they keep believing?\n“We’ve got to respect their threat, we respect their players and they will be up for it as well.\n“I’ve said all along that we need to have a complete performance today.”\nListen on BBC Radio Scotland\nRangers v Celtic (12:00)\nLive coverage of the build up to today's match at Ibrox is about to start on BBC Radio Scotland.\nGuests include former Aberdeen and Scotland defender Willie Miller, former Rangers striker Steven Thompson and former Celtic goalkeeper Pat Bonner, with Liam McLeod providing the match commentary.\nMurty's men on march\nRangers v Celtic (12:00)\nRangers, six points behind the Premiership leaders and having played one more game, are on a roll, winning their last six fixtures since a 2-1 home defeat by Hibs.\nCeltic stuttered a bit by being held to a draw at home to St Johnstone then being knocked out of the Europa League by Zenit St Petersburg.\nBut they have bounced back with wins in the league and Scottish Cup and the only goals they have conceded in their last six outings was in that 3-0 reverse in Russia.\nWhile Brendan Rodgers has not yet lost to Rangers as Celtic manager, Ibrox counterpart Graeme Murty is unbeaten in the two games he has managed against Rangers' Glasgow rivals.\nHowever, the Light Blues have lost their last three Premiership meetings with Celtic at Ibrox.\nRangers v Celtic (1200)\nWho will take the honours at Ibrox? Get your Predictor in before kick-off.\nFoderingham, John & Murphy return\nRangers v Celtic (12:00)\nRangers make three changes from the side that beat Falkirk 4-1 in the Scottish Cup a week ago.\nStriker Jason Cummings, who scored a hat-trick in that game, has to settle for a place on the bench today, with on-loan Brighton & Hove Albion man Jamie Murphy passed fit to return to the side.\nLeft-back Declan John also returns from injury, meaning stand-in Andy Halliday drops out, while Wes Foderingham is back in goal in place of Jak Alnwick.\nBain's biggest game\nRangers v Celtic (12:00)\nLINE-UPS from Ibrox Stadium\nRangers v Celtic (12:00)\nRangers: Foderingham, Tavernier, Bates, Alves, John, Docherty, Goss, Candeias, Windass, Murphy, Morelos.\nSubstitutes: Alnwick, Halliday, Cummings, Miller, Herrera, Holt, Cardoso.\nCeltic: Bain, Ajer, Simunovic, Boyata, Tierney, Brown, Ntcham, Rogic, Forrest, McGregor, Dembele.\nSubstitutes: Doohan, Hendry, Musonda, Armstrong, Sinclair, Roberts, Edouard.\nReferee: Willie Collum\nDismal Dons in dull draw\nAny hopes Aberdeen had of making a late challenge for the title ended in a goal-less game of no thrills at Firhill as Derek McInnes' side were held by relegation-threatened Partick Thistle.\nThe Dons will be hard pushed to catch Rangers in second as they are now five points behind the Ibrox side - and 11 adrift of leaders Celtic.\nIndeed, they have a battle to qualify for the Europa League, with Hibernian have inched to within two points of Aberdeen after their 2-0 win over Hearts in Friday's Edinburgh derby.\nHere's a reminder of the weekend results so far:\nFriday\nHibernian 2-0 Heart of Midlothian\nSaturday\nDundee 0-4 St Johnstone\nHamilton Academical 2-0 Motherwell\nKilmarnock 3-2 Ross County\nPartick Thistle 0-0 Aberdeen\nOld Firm, new title race?\nRangers v Celtic (12:00)\nWelcome to what could be the most significant day of the Scottish Premiership season so far.\nSome might argue that, to borrow a phrase from Hearts' Craig Levein, the \"natural order\" has been restored in the nation's top flight, with the two Glasgow club's generally known as the Old Firm back at the top of the table.\nBut Celtic have been the dominant force for the last six seasons and a victory at the home of their city rivals would surely have secured another title without Brendan Rodgers' side having looked anything like the invincibles who won a domestic treble last season.\nLose and suddenly Graeme Murty's Rangers will have ignited a title race few expected by simply ridding themselves for a few weeks of the inconsistency that had dogged them since their return to the top flight last season.\nWatch this space."}

{"text": "On a whim, I signed up for National Blog Post Month for June. Basically, I committed to writing a blog post everyday in the month of June. I think I can do it!! This is the first month I've signed up, but apparently BlogHer does this each month, and each month they have a theme. June's theme is JUMP. Today's writing prompt (they have those in case you need inspiration each day...but I have Sadie, so I've got all the inspiration I need!) asks about how I feel about starting new projects...which is the perfect JUMPING off point (see how I did that?) for the project I was planning to start this month anyway.\nThe Special Needs Spotlight.\nSometimes I feel like we're always in the spotlight around here (and honestly, I kinda like that...I mean, isn't that what a blog is for?), but sometimes I feel like maybe we should share that spotlight. I've told you before about my special needs Mommy group called Mighty Moms. We meet each month and many of us have dinner together. The last couple of months, we went around and talked about who we are and who our children are, and I realized that, compared to some of these women, I am hardly mighty.\nThese women deal with seizures on a daily basis, ventilators and behavior problems, some of their children don't even have a diagnosis!! And then there are the women who foster or adopt special needs children. I mean, it's one thing for me to take care of Sadie, who I gave birth to...but to take on a special needs child by choice because someone gave them up?!! Now, that's mighty!!\nAnyway, I'd like to showcase some of these other moms and their families, their children, and what life is like for them on a daily basis. So, for my NaBloPoMo project, and for the month of June, get ready to meet some of my mighty mighty friends!!!"}

You can submit your wildlife observations to several community science programs, which ODFW then uses to conduct our species status assessments. Please consider submitting your wildlife sightings to national community (citizen) science efforts like eBird and iNaturalist. Communities Science opportunities abound, here is a small sample of them:\n-.

The Oregon Legislature established the Nongame Wildlife Fund to allow Oregonians to make tax-deductible contributions to conservation on their state income tax returns. The donations have been used to fund a variety of projects to keep Oregon’s wildlife healthy and viable. Historically, funds have been used to recover species such as the Bald Eagle, Peregrine Falcon, and Gray Wolf.\nconservation Donations\nAlthough nongame species account for 88% of the species in Oregon, nongame programs receive only a small fraction of ODFW ‘s overall budget.

The legislature created this Fund in 2019.\nFor most of our history, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife’s work to protect and enhance fish, wildlife, and their habitats has been paid for by the relatively small number of people who hunt and fish. This new Conservation & Recreation Fund is the opportunity for ALL Oregonians to demonstrate that you also support a broader conservation legacy for present and future generations.\nThe legislature put $1 million aside for this Fund, but we cannot access those state dollars unless we raise an additional $1 million of matching funds.

Least Sandpipers foraging on the coast.\nrecovering america’s wildlife act\nThe bipartisan Recovering America’s Wildlife Act represents a fundamental enhancement to how we pay for conservation of all species of fish and wildlife, and their habitats across the country.\nIf passed, this bill would establish a 21st Century funding model for proactive conservation of fish and wildlife. It annually directs existing federal revenue to state fish and wildlife agencies for implementation of their State Wildlife Action Plans, such as Oregon’s Conservation and Nearshore Strategies.\nThe Basics\n- R. 3742 dedicates $1.3 billion annually in existing federal revenues to the Wildlife Conservation Restoration Program, for dispersal to the state fish and wildlife agencies.\n- R. 3742 dedicates an additional $97.5 million to tribal fish and wildlife agencies for conservation and management of fish and wildlife.\n- The Recovering American’s Wildlife Act legislation is based on recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Panel for Sustaining America’s Diverse Fish and Wildlife.\n- Oregon’s Representatives Blumenauer, Bonamici, DeFazio, and Schraders are co-sponsors of H.R. 3742.\nBenefit to Oregon\nOregon would be eligible to receive approximately $23.5 million annually or $47 million per biennium. To receive these funds, states must supply a 25% match. Oregon’s match requirement would be approximately $16 million per biennium.\nWith funds from this account, Oregon would invest in the proactive conservation actions called for in the Oregon Conservation and Nearshore Strategies to maintain healthy fish and wildlife populations. Oregon would invest in actions that:\n- Prevent and reverse declines of Strategy Species\n- Recover Endangered and Threatened species\n- Restore degraded Strategy Habitats\n- Manage and reduce the impact of invasive species\n- Respond to the Key Conservation Issues identified in the Oregon Conservation and Nearshore Strategies\n- Enhance conservation education and wildlife watching opportunities for all Oregonians\nHow Can I Help as an Individual?\nVisit ournatureusa.com and take a few minutes to send a letter to your member of Congress in support of the Recovering America’s Wildlife Act.\nHow Can I Help as a Business or Organization?\nIf you are a business, institution, group, or non-profit organization, please consider joining the Alliance for America’s Fish and Wildlife to help demonstrate that support for this effort is broad-based. Membership in the Alliance does not mean you endorse all activities, only that you support fish and wildlife conservation. Sign up electronically through the Association of Fish & Wildlife Agencies or by printing and mailing a membership form.\nMore information about the legislation and how to get involved is available from the National Wildlife Federation.\n"}

{"text": "A Flaming Sword of Vengeance: Underground Black Metal’s Darkest Flame\nKim Kelly\n“Black metal.”\nThere was once a time when those words had the power to strike genuine fear into a nation’s collective heart, to inspire sensational headlines, to garner hatred and deep mistrust. It was once downright feared, exactly as its practitioners intended it to be. This was before the music was tainted by commercial greed and transformed by outside influences, before the genre’s forefathers left this world or turned their backs on their musical roots, and before modern production techniques and Headbanger’s Ball made black metal “safe.”\nSome say that things were better, more real, in those days, while others look to the future of black metal with great anticipation. Whatever your stance on the subject, know this: there are still some bands out there who adhere strictly to the old ways, who shun ProTools and worship the cosmic fury of a dark lord instead of the almighty dollar. There are still some who really MEAN what they kill their throats to say. Case in point: the Swedish necrowarfare of Arckanum, presided over by sole member Shaamatae. He was gracious enough to take time away from his latest opus, Antikosmos (Moribund) to answer some questions and cast a shadow over the methods behind the madness.\nKim Kelly:Tell me about Antikosmos, your new album. What significance does the title hold? Is there any sort of theme or unifying conceptual thread that ties the album together?\nShamaatae: ANTIKOSMOS represents my anti-cosmic worship of the dark gods and Chaos. It is a religion with a foundation in Chaos-Gnostic belief. I chose to work with the Old Norse giants and traditional praxis, and therefore I have written the full album in Runic Swedish, the mother language to ancient and modern Swedish. The album is a total dedication to the anti-cosmic essence which from Chaos intrudes the cosmos – to incinerate it! Hail Surtr – The Black One with the Flaming Sword of Vengeance!\nI understand that Arckanum is currently a one-man project; is this by choice, by necessity, or for some other reason? Do you plan on expanding the lineup in the future, or you content with Arckanum as is?\nI am alone in Arckanum because I am Arckanum. Any other influence would kill the atmosphere and sound of Arckanum. I need to be alone in this band to create this harsh and raw sound. There will never be any more members in Arckanum. The day I want members, I will end Arckanum and start a new band (kind of what I did with The Hearsemen!)\nWhat is your writing/recording process like? Who handled production duties on the record?\nNormally I write all guitar-riffs at home and at my rehearsal place, and improvise the drumming in the studio, but for the ANTIKOSMOS album I pre-recorded the guitar-tracks and used a metronome, to which I played drums while recording. The drumming was still improvised, but this time I had the guitar-arrangements pre-recorded to play to. It was kind of an experiment, and luckily it turned out to be smooth. I was the producer, and I always am. Tomas at Sunlight Studio just recorded the album.\nThe production on Antikosmos.\nBlack metal is supposed to be raw and harsh sounding, and for Arckanum, this is a very important elements. I want people to feel the hatred in my production, so I chose to let it be simple and raw.\nThe first track on Antikosmos, “Svarti,” is a very ritualistic-sounding, menacing wall of ambient sound, overlaid by the sound of a voice speaking. Several similar tracks can be found on the album, as well; what’s the story behind them?\nThe ambient tracks are my ritualistic songs on the album, as ANTIKOSMOS itself is a Chaos ritual; all songs are dedications to the dark gods. The introduction is the opening ritual, the “Blóta Loka” song is an anti-cosmic Loki ritual, and the outro is the closing ritual.\nHow important is this ritualistic element to your music?\nVery important. The first thing I do on an album is write the lyrics/ ritualistic homage. Every single detail, from music to layout, is my devotions to the anti-cosmic Chaos gods. As a Satanist there is no other way.\nWhat is the underlying purpose behind Arckanum?\n- To plant Frǽ Hyrrokini!\nWhat sort of topics do you discuss in your lyrics? As an English-speaking person, I’m incapable of understanding what you’re saying, but I know that you are known for your devotion to the pagan god Pan; is it safe to assume that much of your lyrical content focuses on this deity and your relationship therewith?\nThe ANTIKOSMOS album is a Chaos ritual; it praises the dark giants of the underworld to come and start war with the cosmos, to burn down all, and to free the true spirits.\nWhat are your thoughts on Satanic black metal bands, and those who merely claim to be Satanic? How important is ideology to this sort of music, in your opinion? Could you respect a band that created absolutely mind-blowing, flawless music, but were Christian? How about it they were NS/racist/White Power?\nArckanum is purely Satanic and I think black metal should be hateful, an adversary. Christians have nothing to do in this scene; such an attempt would only be pathetic. What are they angry at? What do they hate? What do they sing about? To keep their pee-pee in their pants till they are married? Are they angry at all people that refuse to join their hypocrisy-parade? That Jews make more money than them? That Satan WILL burn their weak spirits?\nThe whole racist thing I don’t understand and defiantly don’t agree with.\nYour vocal style is very extreme, even as far as black metal goes; how did you develop your voice, who inspired you to begin singing this way, and how do you maintain your health while singing in such a physically- taxing manner?\nNo-one, I just sang and this is how it came out, ha ha ha… I have never tried to form it or improve it. I sing till I spit blood (no exaggeration) and I can’t normally talk for a day or two after recording. Maintaining health, ha ha, are you kidding me? This is black metal, if it doesn’t hurt something’s wrong…\nWithout whom would Arckanum not exist – i.e. which bands, artists, and elements have influenced you in terms of this project?\nMid 80’s thrash and black metal. Satanism made me open my eyes to the more harsh music around the beginning of the 90’s. Old rehearsal tapes with Polish, Swedish, and Norwegian black metal fed my hungry flame when I started Arckanum. Hand-drawn hate with lousy recorded rehearsal songs! Fuck, that is inspiring, even today!\nWho would you consider to be your musical peers?\nI would say Watain or Dissection – because anti-cosmic Satanism lures my spirit.\nWhat type of non-metal bands do you enjoy listening to?\nWow, that is a lot. Good music is good music; I listen to a lot of 20-30´s jazz and dark Satanic ambient.\nWhere do you see yourself (and Arckanum) in ten years? In twenty?\nMy self will be much stronger and wiser, since I will have been drinking much of the black poisonous waters in the underworld.\nWhat’s next for Arckanum after Antikosmos is released? Do you have any shows planned, or do you prefer to abstain from live performances?\nNo live, that’s how it is. Right now, I have no plans. You never know what Arckanum do next.\nAny final thoughts or parting words?\nCheck out my other band, we have just recorded our debut album and we are looking for a good label! Also check out my books that I am writing: “PanParadox: Pan Towards Chaos”, “GullveigaRbók”, and “URAM”, read about my authorship on my website. And always visit the Arckanum website and the Arckanum myspace!\nSunday, July 13, 2008"}

{"text": "Thompson lived in Ohio at the time, and his invention was the talk of the town. But not everyone was thrilled with the new washing device. With the local medical association commenting that the new invention could be a health hazard.\nOther people criticized the tub as luxury item that undermined the republican simplicity of American society.\nHowever, once President Millard Fillmore installed the first bathtub in the White House, a lot of the popular opposition began to wash away, and the use of the bathtub spread far and wide.\nThere is just one problem with this history of the bathtub: Mencken made the whole thing up.\nYears later, Mencken confessed that he had no idea where the bathtub came from, he didn’t know who invented it, he didn’t know which president installed the first bathtub in the White House, he didn’t know anything.\nSo why did he write it? He wanted to see just how gullible people were.\nMencken intended to use the bathtub story as a lesson in skepticism, but that’s not where the story ended.\nMencken began getting letters from people seeking to help confirm his facts. He began seeing his article cited in other magazines and newspapers, he heard it quoted in congress, and it even started appearing in reference books like Encyclopedias.\nMencken pointed out that the whole fiasco was interesting, not because it was unique, but rather because it was so typical.\nAmerican History, indeed all of history is littered with stories that were either made up, or began in misperception and over time became so widely accepted that no one ever questions them.\nAnother similar story got started in the 1930s.\nMost people think they know how Social Security works: that they make ‘contributions’ while they are working, and that in return they have a right to receive old age benefits.\nIn essence, it’s like an insurance program, and Social Security payments are like insurance premiums.\nWhen politicians they first came up with the idea in 1935, there was concern that the supreme court would strike it down, on the grounds that the constitution gives the Federal government no right to establish an insurance program.\nSo they proceeded cautiously, and when they worded the act they went out of their way to avoid using the word insurance.\nAnd so there was a benefits part, and a tax part, with no explicit connection between the two. Right from the beginning, payments in and payments out were made separate.\nThen, once the act seemed to be bypassing any scrutiny, all of a sudden the word “insurance” began to be used to promote it.\nInsurance companies were one of the few industries that still had good reputations with the public, as they had performed reliably during the Great Depression. So the advocates of Social Security used the good reputation of private insurance companies to promote their own idea, even though it wasn’t insurance.\nAs one historian noted, “lest the Supreme Court take judicial notice of the way officials were trying to sell the program, administrators believed it was imperative to keep the language sufficiently opaque.”\nThe President, congressional leaders, spokesmen for the Social Security Administration, all continue to peddle this idea that its just like paying an insurance premium, as well as the idea that you have a right to get payments in your old age.\nFranklin Roosevelt himself was adamant: “We put those payroll contributions there so as to give the contributors a legal, moral, and political right to collect their pensions and unemployment benefits. With those taxes in there, no damn politician can ever scrap my social security program.”\nLike most statements from politicians, it sounded good, but the real truth began to show when the act was tested in the Supreme Court.\nIn a 1960 case called Fleming vs. Nestor, a Bulgarian born man was denied his Social Security payments after he had been deported from the United States.\nNestor sued, arguing that all through the Social Security act, these old age benefits have been referred to as a “right” of contributors, that he has earned and paid for.\nIn the Supreme Court, here is what the Federal Government said about Social Security:\n“Social Security is in no sense a federally mandated insurance program, under which each worker pays premiums over the years and acquires at retirement an indefeasible right to receive for life, a fixed monthly benefit.\nThe contribution exacted under the social security plan from am employee is a true tax, it is not comparable to a premium under a policy of insurance promising the payer a payment of an annuity commencing at a designated age.”\nIt didn’t matter what Franklin Roosevelt said, it didn’t matter what any SS brochures said, and it didn’t matter what Nestor or anyone else believed about it.\nSocial Security is not an insurance program. And the Social Security contribution is a tax, not an insurance premium.\nBut even after the Fleming case, the government continued to peddle the same old story.\nBy 1975, one Social Security expert had counted 61 references to SS literature calling their tax, “contributions” or “premiums.”\nBut these are very special premiums, because if you don’t pay them, they don’t just cancel your policy, they send you to jail.\nAn unlikely challenge to Social Security came from the Amish. Because the Amish don’t believe in insurance.\nSo when Social Security was extended to self-employed farmers in 1954 this created a problem. If people could opt out of the program for religious reasons. How would the government solve this dilemma?\nThey told the Amish it wasn’t insurance.\nThey told them that the payment was merely a tax and not an insurance premium.\nSocial Security officials even asked if the Amish would be willing to pay the tax, but not take the benefits.\nEven the Amish didn’t fall for that one.\nOne of the Amish pointed out that the title of the program was: “Old Age and Survivors Disability Insurance” so how can you tell us it’s not insurance?\nBecause they say so.\nOne day Valentine Byler, who was in arrears to Social Security by $308.96, was out plowing his field, when IRS agents showed up. They unhitched his horses and sent them away to be auctioned off. All to fund a retirement program the guy didn’t want – or need.\nIn 1965 the Federal Government finally decided that the Amish didn’t have to pay Social Security anymore.\nFor example one letter sent to Detroit Free Press read:\n“Where do you get the nerve to insinuate that Social Security recipients are supported by workers? Social Security is an insurance program, generously contributed to by workers and employers.”\nOf course what actually happens in Social Security is that when you pay the tax, it does not go into any special fund for you. It goes to pay Mrs. Jones down the street, and if there’s anything left it goes to pay general expenditures, the same as any other tax.\nThen they throw some Treasury Bonds, a special kind of Treasury Bond that can’t be sold on the open market but have big numbers printed on them, and call that the Social Security Trust Fund.\nThose bonds are as worthless as Monopoly money.\nIts very hard to do anything about the program, because today’s recipients, at least the ones in the know, know that if young people are allowed to opt out, then where are they going to get the money for their monthly checks?\nCurrent workers are giving them their money. Yes, the elderly’s grandchildren are paying for their retirement.\nSocial Security is a tax on youth.\nAn extra problem is that there simply aren’t enough young people to fund the program, people have stopped having babies. So mass immigration has become necessary to keep the program funded.\nEveryone else who has been “contributing” wants the shiny pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and they don’t care who is paying for it.\nAnother letter, this one to the Chicago Tribune read:\n“Editors should stop writing about Social Security as if it were welfare for senior citizens, where this notion got started we don’t know, but it should be laid to rest once and for all.”\nYes, and Adam Thompson invented the bathtub.\n–Adapted from a podcast by Tom Woods"}

Again, if you know how to use it. Oh, and if you have some common sense because if you really want to make yourself skinnier then you should also fix that fat shadow behind your body. You know, basic stuff. The thing that pisses me most when I’m looking at a magazine or at a printed ad is the “level of fake” : spotless skin, perfect body or even worse, stupid perspectives and unreal food images. I bet that all of us got fooled by a delicious hamburger printed on the menu which turned out to be something that even losing a bet won’t make you wanna eat it.\nIf you take a fashion magazine and you look in it, it’s pretty hard to find even one image that wasn’t enhanced more than changing the brightness or contrast. It’s said because we, the consumers want to see the real thing. Anyway, check out this showcase if you want to laugh a little because these 30 hilarious photoshop mistakes will make your day.\nDetails, details\nThe typical Asian pregnant woman\nThe unusual floating\nThe curious case of the two bellybuttons\nThis is so wrong\nThe pimped airplane\nStop the fan, the Earth is accelerating too much\nThat boat really knows how to float\nWhat.the.hell.is.that\nYou don’t slide, you become the slide\nHot dogs with fingernails\nThe box that comes with 25% invisible parts\nUltra realistic vacuum cleaner\nShe looks like Shrek in a Halloween costume\nSomething’s strange with her right side of the body\nBizarre bust\nI just…I just can’t…oh forget it\nThat’s a huge damn arm over there\nMaybe God’s hand?

{"text": "Pulitzer Prize-winning author Alice Walker has come under criticism for recommending a book full of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories in a recent New York Times interview.\nIn the profile, which focused on book habits, Walker was asked what is currently on her nightstand. She mentioned four books, one of which was And the Truth Shall Set You Free by David Icke, an anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist.\n“In Icke’s books there is the whole of existence, on this planet and several others, to think about,” Walker said. “A curious person’s dream come true.”Buzzfeed News\nSo the New York Times does this column where they ask authors and shit about what books they’re reading at the moment. This week, the author was Pulitzer Prize-winner Alice Walker, who was the first black woman to win the prize for The Color Purple in 1983.\nAnd boy howdy does Ms. Walker have a book for you. It’s, ya know, the one about the Jews being responsible for the Holocaust AND the KKK…\nTablet Magazine, one of the first news outlets to point out the author’s suggestion, wrote an article about some of the troubling details in Icke’s book.\nTablet noted that Icke is one of Britain’s most well-known anti-Semites. The outlet also wrote about the content in the book, like suggesting that one of the world’s oldest Jewish organizations — B’nai Brith — was somehow responsible for the slave trade in addition to operating the Ku Klux Klan. He’s also simultaneously and falsely claims both that Jewish people funded Adolf Hitler, though he casts doubt that the Holocaust occurred.Buzzfeed News\nYikes.\nThat’s not a good look for Alice Walker & Co. Although, lizards creating the Illuminati is a theory I can get behind.\nIcke is also a prominent proponent of the false conspiracy theory that lizards, posing as people, have taken over the highest echelons of government and society.Buzzfeed News\nI think Stan Lee was onto something similar before he died.\nWhen people read the article and, for some reason, were not thrilled with it, Walker doubled down by writing a poem on her website Alice Walker’s Garden dot com.\n“For a more in depth study I recommend starting with YouTube.”\nI mean Jesus Christ bro, if you’re going to defend the torturing and murdering of millions of people you should probably come with a better source than YouTube. That’s worse than citing Wikipedia on a god damn dissertation."}

{"text": "I felt hopeful for the first time in days. I got out of bed and crawled into the shower, setting it for hotter than it needed to be. I had no idea how long I’d been in bed, but it was seven in the morning according to my clock. I hadn’t seen or heard from Darren, and I assumed he was with Adam. I should have called him, but the idea of reaching out, even to the only person in the world who would understand my sense of failure, made me flinch as if my face would get slapped.\nMy skin was raw and pink from heat and friction when I stepped out of the shower. I dried my hair and pulled out my brush. A twisted black hair tie was wrapped around the handle. Gabby had put it there when she worked on my hair for the Eclipse show. I put my palm on my wet hair and stroked downward, curling my fingers to gather a strand, just enough to string a bow. The sensation was nothing like when Gabby did it with her care and artistry. And all that was gone. All that talent went into the nothing and nowhere. All the music she would have made would never exist.\nI hurled myself under the covers, naked and half wet, grabbing my phone on the way.\n—don’t come nevermind—\nI heard a phone ding from the living room and, soon after, a voice so close it shocked me.\n“Too late,” Jonathan said. “Your front door was open.”\n—go away—\nA blast of cold air hit me as the covers were moved, and in the next breath, I caught his new scent. He pulled the covers over us just as his phone dinged. He pressed his front to my back, spooning me, his clothes taking on the dampness I hadn’t gotten around to toweling off.\n“I’m sorry, Monica.” He put his face in my wet hair and draped his arm around me. Ah. What’s this text I have here? It says go away.”\nI sniffled.\nHe slid his arm under my neck and held the phone in front of our faces with both hands. His breath tickled my ear. “Let me text back. Hang on.”\n—I’d rather be here for you—\nI waited for it to appear on my phone. He nuzzled into the hair pooling at the back of my neck as I typed back.\n—And then what?—\nHis fingers flew across the glass.\n—And let’s talk about the rest later. Today, you are the goddess my universe revolves around.—\nIn the seconds it took my phone to bloop, I had a million thoughts, not the least of which was that he was crazy. Out of his mind. Didn’t he see who he was curled against? For f**k’s sake, I’d killed my best friend, first with carelessness and then with ambition.\nI started texting back:\n—you have the wrong….\nBut then I felt his lips on my shoulder and his warm breath on my skin, and my sorrow dropped out of me. I couldn’t finish. My chest hitched and heaved, and the tears came so hard I couldn’t breathe. His arms held me tight from behind, and his voice twisted itself into little nothings of comfort. I went into a timeless blackness where I let everything spill out, because he’d catch it. I knew in every cough and sob, every hitched breath and chest spasm, that he’d hold me together. Whatever fell apart, he’d put right. I couldn’t curse him for not being everything I needed or failing to commit to me completely. I didn’t have space to reject his idea that I was submissive or the will to deny him control over me. He was there, and he was exactly what I needed.\nWhen the crying slowed, I turned to face him. In the dark, I found his lips by following his breath and kissed him. He opened his mouth, stroking my tongue with his in a gentle dance. I wove my legs into his.\n“Thank you,” I whispered, breathing it without a voice.\nHe started to answer, but I kissed away whatever came next. I pushed my hips into him. He was hard, and I was ready. I kissed him again, so I wouldn’t hear any objections when I pulled his shirt from his waistband. I wanted him naked against me. I wanted to feel good, if only for a minute, and to forget everything for as long as it took us to bind together and fall apart. I hadn’t earned it, but I wanted it.\nA little light went on under the covers, and a bloop preceded a ding, but we ignored it. He rolled on top of me, mouth attached to mine, and stroked the length of my body. I gasped. The touch was so comforting, so distracting, a bow suddenly dragged across silent strings.\n“Hello? Mon?” The voice sounded far away.\nJonathan and I separated.\n“What was that?” Jonathan asked.\nI twisted around. My phone was lit up under me. I must have rolled on top of it and answered the call by accident. Too late to reject the call.\n“Hello? Darren?” I whispered. For some reason, I couldn’t engage my vocal cords.\n“I’m downtown.”\nJonathan pulled the covers off us, and the light seemed as blinding as the air was cold. I already missed his warmth on my body.\n“I need you to post bail, or I’m going to miss the wake.” He sounded dead, emotionless. “I found Theo. I hurt him. There are bail places all around here. So can you come?”\n“Yes, I’ll come.”\n“Thank you.”\nI glanced at Jonathan as Darren started giving me the details. He was still fully clothed in a blue polo shirt and jeans, sitting up against the wall. I was naked and crouched beside him. He stroked my shoulder.\n“What happened?” he asked when I clicked off.\n“Darren beat up Gabby’s boyfriend. I have to bail him out.”\n“Why are you whispering?”\nI shrugged. I had no idea. All I knew was, I could whisper fine, but I couldn’t speak out loud.\n“You’re not speaking at the wake, I guess?”\nI shook my head.\n“Where’s it going to be?”\n“Here.”\nHe looked at his watch. “In seven hours? Are you prepared? How many people?”\n“It’s tomorrow.”\n“Debbie said it was Saturday. Today.”\nOh God. Darren had said he’d miss the wake, and I thought he meant he’d miss it tomorrow. How long had I been under the covers? Had I slept more than I thought? I stood up, panicked. It was Saturday. I had to put out food. Clean the house. Make myself emotionally presentable. And I had to bail Darren out of jail? With what money? And what time?\nI must have been a sight, naked in the middle of my room, hands out, not knowing what to do first. Jonathan got up and grabbed my wrists. I had no words.\n“Calm down.”\nI nodded.\n“I’m going to take care of it.”\n“No,” I whispered. “It’s my job.”\nHe held my hands, pressing them together between his palms. He spoke in the voice that broached no questions, but he didn’t tell me to spread my legs or come. “I have to work for a few hours today. I’ll send a crew here to clean up, and I’ll get food in. How many people?”"}

On the occasion, he noted, \"As a result, investments are flooding into the State and we are at the forefront of CCTV cameras in the country.\nConstruction of police stations with modern facilities, new vehicles, and facilities with technology is being provided to the police. Apart from it, the state government is giving high priority to the safety of women and children. Earlier citizens would have to wait for months to get a passport, but with the easy methods adopted by police in background checks, people are able to avail their passports easily.\"\nDirector General of Police M Mahender Reddy said that the Police Commissionerate system has been in place in Hyderabad since the time of the Nizam. He stated, \"Some Police stations are still running in the buildings set up at that time. After the formation of Telangana, we are setting up new police station buildings. We are thankful to the Cantonment Board for giving land to this police station. The government has allocated a budget for new buildings for a total of 19 police stations in Hyderabad. The first one to be completed is Kharkhana PS and the remaining 18 PS buildings will also be completed at the earliest.\"\nAnjani Kumar, the Hyderabad Police Commissioner, noted, \"The security situation in Hyderabad is very good and for this reason many international companies are coming to Hyderabad. Research and manufacturing industries are showing interest in Hyderabad along with IT companies.\"\n\"In the past, we were given guns after police training was over. But now gadgets are being given. It clearly indicates that we are serving the people through technology along with guns as well. The crime rate in Hyderabad has come down by 10 percent in 2020 as compared to 2019. Murders and attempted murders fall 26 percent. Thefts are down 28 percent. Attacks on women dropped by 19 percent.\nA new American company is showing interest in investing $ 150 million. Boeing has already invested. Hyderabad has developed into an international investment hub in Telangana. Hyderabad has earned the reputation of being the safest city for the last six years. In the last six years, we have made many reforms in the police department,\" added the Commissioner.\nThe inauguration event was also attended by G Sayanna, MLA, Cantonment, Talasani Srinivas Yadav, Minister for Animal Husbandry, Ch.

{"text": "Gas up the car for one more trip. For Eater Barbecue Week, contributor Robert Donovan explores some of the establishments tucked around South Carolina and states closely surrounding the region. Today, it's a closer look at Grady's Bar-B-Q at 3096 Arrington Bridge Rd., Dudley, North Carolina. For more hidden gems, check out True BBQ, B's Cracklin' BBQ, Big T's, and Scott's Bar-B-Que.\nLocated in the middle of eastern North Carolina, 10 miles south of Goldsboro, and 80 miles north of Wilmington, the town of Dudley, North Carolina is the sleepy kind of place you’d picture if you were looking for a country barbecue joint. Out past the cornfields of Dudley, you'll find Grady's Bar-B-Q. The stark white building housing the barbecue establishment sits at the merger of two country paths, Sleepy Creek and Arlington Bridge Roads. Actually, Grady's isn't even in Dudley proper. It's not on the way to anywhere, unless you make it.\n:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/6668535/gradyspano.0.jpg)\nShould you start a barbecue joint if you can’t handle the smoke? The origin of the barbecue establishment Grady's begins on July 4, 1986. Current owner Stephen (or Steve) Grady's brother opened the restaurant in a renovated service station, and two days later proclaimed that the barbecue business wasn't for him. \"He couldn't handle the smoke. He couldn't do it,\" says Steve. His brother offered him and his wife Gerri the restaurant. In 1986, Steve worked at the sawmill and ran a farm. Gerri was recently unemployed, but she helped out the one day her brother-in-law's place was open, and together, she and Steve figured they could take over. Steve had cooked hogs his whole life, helping his grandfather, the local pitmaster, and Gerri had her family's recipes for sides. They took over the restaurant while Steve continued on with the sawmill and farm, while also cooking hogs. Eventually Steve retired from the sawmill and went full time with Grady's BBQ in the mid '90s and even gave up some of the responsibilities of the farm.\nThis July 4 will mark their 30th anniversary serving barbecue. I asked Steven how long he planned on doing this, and he replied \"I guess it all depends on if I live or die. There are no guarantees in life. I'm 81 years old and the older you get the closer you get, you know? I guess I'll go till I don't.\"\n:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/6668597/gradys_long2.0.jpg)\n:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/6668611/gradys_long3.0.jpg)\nThe restaurant is a simple, cinderblock building flanked by a pit house and a huge stack of seasoning wood. The dining room has a few booths, like those you could expect to find in an old soda shop or bowling alley. Each table is set with a squirt bottle of the ever-present (in N.C. barbecue joints) Texas Pete and vinegar sauce that's tangy and complex with cider vinegar and enough chile flakes settled to add fire to a plate of pork — though it doesn't need it.\nPlace your cash-only order through a small window into the kitchen, where the sides of steamed cabbage, black-eyed peas, slaw, potato salad, and collards are made fresh from Gerri's family recipes. The hushpuppies, served in little paper envelopes, are light, little crispy pillows of love. The sweet tea is brewed fresh and is sweet.\n:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/6668743/gradys_long4.0.jpg)\nThe clientele is familiar. Not just to Gerri as she takes their order, but familiar to any rural barbecue restaurant — agricultural workers on their day off, families after a baseball game, and a pair of brothers sharing a meal. \"We've been coming here for years— every Saturday at 11:00 a.m.,\" one of the brothers told me, \"There's not much like it anywhere. Maybe Pete Jones' place up the road.\" Pete Jones' barbecue, also known as Skylight Inn in Ayden, NC, is about an hour up the road towards Greenville. \"We keep coming back.\"\nAside from barbecue junkies and locals, Grady's remote location keeps them relatively under the radar, despite the press from Southern Foodways Alliance, Our State magazine, and mentions in regional barbecue books. I make wide, out-of-the-way trips to Grady's whenever I'm in the eastern part of the state, frequently taking multiple hour detours just to have a plate of Steve's pork and Gerri's sides.\n:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/6668765/gradys_long5.0.jpg)\nFour days a week, Steve splits his whole hogs into halves and smokes them over oak and hickory in a smokehouse just a few feet from the restaurant. What makes Grady's barbecue some of the best eastern N.C. style is the perfectly-smoked meat mixed with the right amount of skin, fat, and outside brown bits. It's all chopped into a such perfect ratio that every bite gives you tender juicy meat, a crunch of skin, a little pop of fat, and the deep smoky caramelization of outside brown. Every time I go, it's a new revelation. Even short periods of time away — you somehow forget how damn good it is.\nThere are places that have been around longer than Grady's that are getting by on nostalgia and familiarity alone and have abandoned the slow, attention-greedy process of cooking whole hogs over real wood and making scratch sides every day. I don't know if it's the less-exacting crowds of more accessible locales or just the reality of generational drift from the \"old way\" of doing things, but those places suffer. Their quality isn't what it was. Some survive, but most do not. Grady's still produces some of the best barbecue, not just eastern N.C. style, but any that's being served today. Barbecue devotees talk of 100-mile barbecue, meaning you'd drive 100 miles for it — I've driven twice that, multiple times, to go to Grady's.\n:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/6668573/gradys_long.0.jpg)\nIt's not just the wonderful barbecue that draw fans to Grady's, the unassuming owners are just as much a part of why people speak so highly of the place.The Gradys are welcoming people. Steve is willing to listen to a fumbling photographer ask him the same questions he's probably been asked dozens of times before. Gerri walks through the dining room, checks on customers, makes sure someone helps carry bags of food to their cars, and grabs their hands to look them in the eye to say thank you for coming by. There's no pretense here, just great food.\n:no_upscale()/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/6668873/150Gradys_bbq_20160611-_RCD6213.0.jpg)"}

{"text": "March 14, 2020\nThe Honourable Todd Smith\nMinister of Children, Community and Social Services\n7th Floor, 438 University Ave.\nToronto, ON M5G 2K8\nDear Minister Smith,\nI am writing to you today with an urgent request, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Ontarians\nreceiving social assistance through the Ontario Disability Support Program and Ontario Works are\nparticularly vulnerable at this time, and will undoubtedly face serious challenges in accessing resources\nand supports. In order for everyone in Ontario to be able to safeguard themselves and others, we need\nto be assured that your government has a plan to assist everyone – including vulnerable people.\nAs you know, social assistance recipients are living in poverty. The majority have disabilities or are\nworking poor. Much of the common advice for mitigating risk during this pandemic will not apply in\nthe same way to Ontarians relying on social assistance. Staying at home if you are sick is not an option\nfor those who rely on homeless shelters. Self-isolating is not possible for those who need food banks or\nsoup kitchens in order to survive, and stocking up on groceries is impossible for seniors on fixed\nincomes or families who live paycheque to paycheque. Even frequent hand washing and sanitizing is\nnot an easy task for those who cannot afford or do not have access to these supplies. This is a common\nproblem for anyone living in poverty, as they are consistently forced to make difficult choices in order\nto survive with the incredibly limited resources they have.\nOntarians need to know that you and your government are taking this issue seriously. People with\ndisabilities, seniors and the working poor are most at risk during this uncertain time, as are the\ncommunity partners and agencies that help support them - you need to act quickly. What is your plan\nto ensure that people receiving ODSP and OW, the working poor and seniors will not be left behind\nor exposed to even greater risk because they cannot afford to protect themselves? We need your\nurgent action now.\nI look forward to your prompt response.\nLisa Gretzky, MPP\nWindsor West"}

{"text": ". Seeking out the folks who dedicate themselves to a particular problem enables crowdsourcers to harvest top ideas at a modicum of development cost. Challenges help organizations build a community of interest, which sustains and empowers all of the individuals in that community.\nPhilanthropies and NGOs have been doing this for a long time. For example, the World Bank’s Development Marketplace (DM) began in 1999 as a grant competition to identify and fund innovative projects that could have a high impact on development. Several years ago, I attended one of their expos, which showcased 100 small-scale development ideas submitted by small nonprofits and individuals globally. DM has over the last 10 years given away $46 million dollars to fund over 1,000 innovative small-scale development projects worldwide.\nThe U.S. government has been increasingly employing this technique as well, galvanized by President Obama’s directive for transparency and innovation in government. In September 2009, the President released his Strategy for American Innovation and the subsequent Guidance on the Use of Challenges and Prizes to Promote Open Government was published in March 2010. Challenge.gov launched in September as a one-stop shop for any government agency seeking to award prizes for competitive citizen crowdsourcing. Among the agencies currently crowdsourcing: the U.S. Army, which is seeking interactive solutions for virtual environments with a $25,000 prize; and the State Department, which launched Apps4Africa to leverage the rapid advancements in mobile technology in Africa.\nAnother crowdsourcing model pairs private funding with public problems. I recently attended TEDxMidAtlantic in Washington, DC. Here, XPrize Vice President for Development Francis Beland discussed the Wendy Schmidt Oil Cleanup Challenge, a $1.4 million competition designed to inspire innovative solutions that will speed the pace of cleaning up seawater surface oil. Throw private funding at a public problem and there is probably money and an investor is likely to read benefits in the technology created.\nHow can communicators like us benefit from crowdsourcing? Challenges and contests can serve as interactive and engaging tools for public information campaigns. They can give organizations a platform for publicizing problems while turning audiences into stakeholders: communities of interest that can be used to socialize ideas and discuss solutions. Crowdsourcing enables identification of key communicators who may start public conversations about the problems originally identified in the challenge. When considering tactics for a strategic communications campaign, crowdsourcing via challenges and contests could provide an effective, low-cost means for swarming a large group of problem-solvers around a problem.\nI’ll continue to explore innovative ways crowdsourcing is affecting our world, how it enables innovation, how it fosters communities of interest, and how it solves problems both big and small. Stay tuned.\nCaryn Nesmith is a senior strategist at The Rendon Group specializing in Latin America. A former journalist, Caryn has also served in Iraq for TRG.

Confined tort means as possible sue for restricted recovery following an accident. Recovery is bound in as possible still sue for medical costs, but you cannot retrieve for suffering and suffering. To the opposite, if complete tort insurance is selected, healing for pain and suffering is achievable, and frequently contributes to a bigger economic recovery.\nMany persons select restricted tort coverage to help keep premiums low. However, restricted tort coverage may cost you a lot more in the future by substantially decreasing the quantity you can recover. Choosing full tort insurance now will help you obtain the money you need if you are later associated with a crash.\nMinimum Insurance Restricts\nBy legislation, auto insurance providers should present bodily harm responsibility insurance of at the very least $15,000 per person and $30,000 per incidence, $5,000 to cover medical expenses, and $5,000 to cover property damage. Services aren't necessary to automatically give other kinds of coverage, such as for example revenue loss insurance for perform missed, or uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (described below). These latter provisions are recommended, and should be picked by the policy holder.\nJust like confined tort protection, many policy slots choose the minimum coverage limits to truly save on premium payments. Nevertheless, given the climbing charge of medical treatment and different costs (such as cost of living), the above minimums are utilized significantly earlier than expected. Furthermore, it is difficult to predict the effects of an accident, such as for instance just how much perform will be overlooked, and simply how much property damage will occur. Generally where the minimal quantities are plumped for, that leaves the policy case stuck with the bill. Selecting insurance restricts which surpass the minimal needed quantities, along with choosing optional types of coverage today, will help you receive the amount of money you need if you should be later involved with a crash.\nUninsured/Underinsured Motorist Insurance\nUninsured/underinsured motorist protection (UM/UIM coverage) can assist you to retrieve in an accident if one other driver is not insured, or has almost no insurance. If a crash does occur, UM/UIM protection applies for your requirements, as well as family unit members residing in the same household. It does not matter if you're the driver, a traveler, or otherwise involved with a crash, and UM/UIM coverage might help purchase costs concerning accidents whether the other driver is uninsured or underinsured.\nWhen you yourself have only the aforementioned minimum required restricts and don't decide to possess UM/UIM insurance on your own policy and are involved with a car crash, you will have to sue the other driver who's at-fault to recuperate anything above your policy limits.\nOftentimes where the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured, that driver does not need sufficient assets, or any assets, to allow you to retrieve money. Ultimately, you might be caught with the bill. Choosing UM/UIM insurance today might help you obtain the money you'll need if you're later associated with a crash.\nYou can modify your auto insurance policy at any time. Call your insurance agent today – before it's also late. When you have been or are associated with a car crash, contact an individual harm lawyer when you can.\nUnique : Baja Auto Insurance Near Me"}

Getting more people saving is essential if we are to achieve our ambition of a nation where people are resilient to withstands life’s financial shocks. That’s critical now, in the early 21st century, when unexpected life events such as redundancy and separation have become much more common and that there are fewer certainties in life than there used to be. “We’re pleased to see the recommendation that more should be done to co-ordinate financial education programmes across industry, government and others. That is exactly what we are doing with the Financial Capability Strategy for the UK, which we are leading, with the support of a range of partners. In the next few weeks, we will be holding a summit to bring together the funders of financial education and beginning a series of pilots to help parents teach their children about money. We’ll also be launching an initiative to ensure that projects designed to help people manage their money are evaluated in a consistent way. All this should help people to be better money managers, and better savers.”\nFor background: TSIP recommendations:."}

{"text": "Opting for Scalp Micropigmentation is a life-changing decision. It will alter the way you look and can have a huge impact on your emotional well-being. However, push this aside for one minute and focus on the practical issues. As anyone taking this road will also wish to make the most of their financial and emotional investment. And to do this, scalp micropigmentation aftercare routines should be high on the list of priorities.\nFrom the point of view of a technician, persuading people to adhere to aftercare procedures is a tough nut to crack. They slide quickly, and far too easily. Yet for anyone wishing to push SMP longevity as far as they possibly can, these SMP aftercare procedures are an important piece of the jigsaw puzzle.\nBefore and Aftercare Procedure for Scalp Micropigmentation\nRecommendations pre SMP treatment\n- If you have recently tanned skin, ensure you leave enough time for the natural shades of your skin to return, pre-treatment. Technicians prefer to work with correct coloring when administering SMP.\n- If your skin is particularly dry, ensure you treat it in advance. Moisturizing morning and evening a week before treatment is crucial and if you’ve any questions about brands or your skin type speak to your clinic in advance.\n- Consider sensible hairlines before booking your clinic consultation. If you’ve really no idea, this can be discussed and suggestions can be made.\n- Avoid alcohol for a good few days pre-treatment and in addition, if you are taking any blood-thinner medication, speak to your doctor to verify eligibility. It is useful to note, Aspirin is also a blood thinner.\nAftercare recommendations for scalp micropigmentation treatments\n- Once your treatment is completed, your scalp should remain dry for three to five days. This is important as the pigments are only lightly implanted underneath the Epidermis and the pinprick from the needle is not fully healed. Showering or swimming can fade or remove the implanted pigments.\n- Avoid all physical activities that will cause excessive sweating. This list includes sunbathing, saunas and gym workouts. The advised timescales, in an ideal world, are for a month after your first treatment is completed. Once this period of time is over, normal life can resume as it was before you received your scalp micropigmentation treatment.\n- Post-treatment, after one whole week has passed by it is acceptable to shower and also use light yet unperfumed products such as moisturizers or soaps and shampoos. If you require further advice on brands or products, speak to your technician for advice.\nBefore and after scalp micropigmentation procedures are really not that negotiable from the point of view of a technician who administers your treatment. It is not only for SMP longevity but also for hygiene purposes and avoiding any risk of infection. If you have any additional questions concerning this article then reach out to us here at Scalp Micro as we are always on-hand and delighted to help. Alternatively, why not hop over to one of our social media pages and have a browse through our before and after gallery of successful scalp micropigmentation treatments."}

{"text": "As someone who has somewhat of an aversion to Christmas, I have an unnatural appreciation for Christmas movies. Maybe it’s the longing for a white Christmas, or even just the longing for some form of attention by way of copious amounts of presents. We’ll leave the questions to a psychologist…\nAnyway, here are the absolute best Christmas movies, ranked. Because, why not? Snacks at the ready and ugly Christmas jumpers on, let’s do this!\n#13 Die Hard\nIs Die Hard a Christmas movie? No one really knows, but we’re arguing yes. NYC Policeman wants nothing more than a simple visit to see his estranged wife and two daughters on Christmas eve. Obviously, Christmas is never that easy and the whole affair is interrupted by terrorists #classsic. Of course, there’s no one to save Christmas but Bruce Willis.\n#12 National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation\nNational Lampoon’s series are the best. But, when you add Christmas? So much better. The movie follows the story line of one family’s search for the perfect Christmas vacation that goes horribly, horribly wrong in the most hilarious way possible. And we love every second of it.\n#11 Home Alone\nBest. Christmas. Movie. Ever. So many epic one liners, great GIF reactions and the plot line of our childhood nightmares. Kevin McCallister is forgotten at home when his family heads off to Paris and must face the break-in attempts of some crooks all alone. If you haven’t seen it, do you even Christmas?\n#10 Miracle On 34th Street\nAn OG Christmas classic, Miracle On 34th Street tells the tale of Kris Kringle who fills in for a drunk Santa for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and then tells everyone that he really is Santa Claus, but no one believes him!\n#9 The Grinch\nWe’ve got one word for you: iconic. Dr Seuss’ much-loved book gets a hit of new life with this Jim Carrey adaptation. What happens? The Grinch decides to ruin Christmas by stealing all of their presents and Christmas cheer. Sounds easy enough, right? Not when Cindy Lou Who is involved! Will he stop Christmas? Will she save Christmas? What a nail-biter.\n#8 Nightmare Before Christmas\nTim Burton does Christmas, and we love it! We meet Jack Skellington, who plots to kidnap Santa to much pomp and circumstance after getting tired of the same ol’ routine of scaring people every Christmas.\n#7 The Santa Clause\nIt’s classic tale, really. Divorced dad gets custody of his only son only to accidently kill a man in a Santa costume and then be forced into taking Santa’s place when he realises he’s killed the real Santa. What follows is a pretty hilarious Christmas movie that you need to watch at least once this year.\n#6 Scrooged\nAll we want for Christmas is Bill Murray. Scrooged is a modern-day take on the Dickens’ classic ‘A Christmas Carol’ that see’s Murray’s character—a POS TV exec who thinks it’s a good idea to fire someone on Christmas eve, no less—visited by a bunch of friendly ghosts who give him the chance to make good on how much of an a-hole he’s been. And trust us, that’s no easy task.\n#5 Mean Girls\nBecause of that Jingle Bells number, duh. Don’t act like you don’t remember every move. Also, who doesn't love early Lindsay Lohan?\n#4 The Family Stone\nAhh, SJP, what would Christmas be without you? Nothing. The answer is nothing. When a guy just wants to bring his girlfriend home for the holidays, his crazy family makes this kind of an impossible task. Obviously chaos ensues and we’re left wondering about the break-up: will they or won’t they? Are they even meant to be?\n#3 The Holiday\nAn undeniable classic, The Holiday tells the tale of two women—one from America and one from the UK—who swap houses over the holiday season in response to some nasty breakups. Of course, they each find sweet, Christmas-y love with local babes and then of course face that dilemma of having to go home and er, break up with them.\n#2 Love Actually\nLove Actually is Christmas personified. One simply does not celebrate Christmas without watching Love Actually at least 10 times. The intertwining love stories, the British winter, the awkwardness, the everything. Love Actually is a winner in all regards and is just as Christmas-y as the nativity.\n#1 Elf\nNo Christmas is complete without watching Elf. But, if we’re being honest, we usually whip Elf out by at least November (ok, maybe October). The movie follows the story of a human who’s actually an Elf and is thus kicked out of the North Pole. What follows is a hilarious tale of a crazy-tall human in NYC who thinks he’s an elf. Classic.\nLove movies? Here’s everything we’ve ever written about Netflix."}

There is a small bit of writing and a piece of tape to the front panel, and a price sticker and light discoloration to the rear panel, but that is all. There are no seamsplits, bends, or other defects, and the whole remains solid, bright, and highly attractive – overall, a very good collector's copy.\nThe condition of the LP itself is EXCELLENT. Although surfaces are not perfectly silent, this is a fine copy and the playback is enjoyable. However, if you must have a flawless or NM copy, then please do not buy this LP. Overall, rates as an excellent collector's copy."}

{"text": "The Chemistry Bit - introduction\nJohn Courtneidge\n9 September 2014\nThis is the age of subtle relationships - hence the power of the key book, The Spirit Level (see The equality Trust website\nThere are strong parallels in this to the evolution of our understanding of chemistry: the earliest chemical knowledge was that of strong interactions (ie chemical bonds in minerals, metal, ceramics, etc: ionic and metallic bonds). Then we learned about chemical forces within molecules: covalent bonds - often as strong as ionic and metallic bonds, but based on sharing electrons, sometimes unequally, rather than appropriating them, as in ionic bonds.\nFinally, in the last century we started understanding (under-standing, in awe), the chemical bonds *between* molecules: hydrogen bonds, dipole-dipole interactions, Heitler-London forces.\nAs that century ended, we (I included) started to look at the role of entropy in directing chemical events: reaction rates, etc.\nSadly, the neo-loberal governments of that time abolished funding for such research - world-wide - in advance of the neo-conservatives ushering in The Age of Stupidity (look, for example at the recent dumpster-ing by Stephen Harper's neo-con government, in Canada, of scientific libraries.\nTime for us, outside the monoversities' faux-academy, to help educate our younger generations.\nBefore it's too late!"}

{"text": "I’ve recently been pleasantly surprised. Tinder has its own faults (several toilet selfies!), it’s my personal favorite online dating services choice up to now. The swipe right for yes, swipe remaining with no style is actually fun and addictive (although it’s a tad too simple mix them all the way up—so very long, soul mate!). Find true primary names, and Tinder helpfully informs you of if you’ve got any Facebook neighbors or passion in accordance. (Useful/creepy rule: For those who have a good pal, some ticks on myspace will take you a final label plus pics.) There are no mind-numbing surveys to answer, and possible goes could only get in touch with one in the event you’ve both swiped ideal.\nDespite Tinder’s agent, most of us do look curious about over a fling—”no hookups” is really as pronounced when you look at the profiles I’ve considered selfies at Machu Picchu. In two to three weeks of swiping, I’ve found a handful of great folks and read assortment profiles. Looking at visibility after shape, many varieties did start to arise.\nOne or more of these guy’s picture demonstrates him posing with a sports vehicle, bike or extremely large car. He’ll have also a pic demonstrating him or her flanked with adoring Hooters waitresses. “Call me personally shallow,” he states, followed by a demand that not one person without a thigh distance or a BMI under 21 swipes ideal. In addition, he disdains felines, kids, vegans and golden diggers.\nAh, yes, this is just what Tinder was developed for: the short lived hookup. He are a pilot on a layover, an European entrepreneur settling a package or a lowly constitutional promotion flunky. He’s trying to get in, have a blast and get up unscathed. Hey, a minimum of he’s straightforward. The guy can be a blast providing you don’t expect you’ll get feedback from him or her anymore.\nI’ve surely got to provide this person some account. a smart entrepreneur, he is aware anything offers like a fairly look. But click the image from the attractive piece, and you’ll staying presented up a pitch for their latest release, training video or self-published guide. Does the guy swipe directly on every woman between 19 and 90 basically snag several suckers? His or her member profile photograph try hot adequate that you’ll become tempted to see.\nMarvel! This is often a two-for-one contract. The first photo will in most cases be regarding the satisfied hubby single-handedly, face artfully obscured, but look over another images and you’ll read his girlfriend way too, smiling mischievously at the rear of sunglasses. His own page clarifies that they’re just an ordinary, fun partners on the lookout for her “unicorn” (tell myself I’m maybe not the only person that has to seem that all the way up). No less than they’re “disease and drama-free!”\nHe blogs a few picture, but simply leaves their visibility blank. Either he’s idle, or he’s positive his appearance are enough to make the right swipe. C’mon people, provide us with something to embark upon right here. This entire swiping thing was superficial adequate without depriving people of a tidbit of personal facts. I’ve a strict “no profile, no swipe” tip, it doesn’t matter what fairly your infant blues.\nSimillar to the stronger, Silent form, this guy not simply departs his or her profile blank, but does not make use of a photograph either, and his username is clearly made (I’m looking into you, “Danger”). it is unclear exactly why he’s right here. Just finding out the scene? Infidelity? Stalking an ex? aspiring to snag a lady very eager she’ll swipe great without such as a grainy photo? Does it make a difference? Swipe leftover fasting.\n“If there’s just about any trick in the world, it needs to be into the effort of understanding someone posting one thing.” The Softie kicks facts off with song lines or a quote, might be or is almost certainly not things he or she only manufactured. His or her visibility inevitably include a plea for “no more activity, please” and an image of his puppy. The man takes pleasure in “holding arms” and “spooning” and requests you swipe best if you’re “looking for a-deep association.” Notification: Two schedules and he’s ready to move.\nJust like the Softie, the Misogynist has received some rough pauses, but this guy are angry as heck and never travelling to go anymore. His or her member profile is an angry screed against the “fake, short” lady of Tinder. One or more picture reveals him or her retaining a shotgun. Crazy and equipped? Where’s the “refer to psych business” switch when it’s needed?\n“London > Dubai > Ny > Berlin > YourCityright here” kicks off this gentleman’s shape. All photo showcase your in amazing locales or sipping absinthe in a bar in Paris. The guy speaks five dialects, appreciates documentaries, understands vino, rates Pablo Neruda, as well as being a self-proclaimed excel at on the tango. The issue? He’s never in the city.\nAt the start, he appears excellent. One communicate usual interests and easily affect upwards a conversation. It’s an excellent conversation, actually, this happens for days without any mention of an actual meeting. You realize his or her living tale, however his last name. In the event you sooner or later meet for coffees a couple weeks later, he’s hence dull or boring an individual wonder exactly how this is identical man you’re about to started texting.\nOh wait, however this is almost every person on Tinder. “Active” might polite way of expressing “I’m definitely not extra fat,” so gird by yourself for a display of enthusiastic runners, cyclists, skiers, kayakers, all scuba divers and internet users. If he’s actually when involved with an outdoor exercise, it’s when you look at the profile. It’s a wonder the man also have efforts for online dating when he spends every complimentary time in the wild. Finer get him or her on a rainy time!\nListings may vary, in the browse selection, you can find a startling wide range of 39-year-olds over 6 legs upright. I’m no statistician, but I’d bet not all of these guys are increasingly being completely forthright. Witness likewise: “almost divorced,” “in an unbarred relationships” and “those aren’t my own family.”"}

{"text": "Red Hill Estate is a boutique winery in Red Hill South on the Mornington Peninsula. Sir Peter Derham bought the first 20 acres in 1979 and work begun to develop it into a vineyard by 1989. From the first vintage in 1991, the Estate quickly became the biggest on the Peninsula, with not only the Estate vineyards, but also an acquisition of five other properties across the sub spectrums of the region.\nThe Derhams relinquished control of the Estate in the late 1990’s and successive owners have developed it further. The estate is now 46 acres with 23 acres under vine and boasts one of the most stunning winery views on the Peninsula. Currently the wine is divided into four categories, Red Hill Estate, Cellar Door, Merricks Grove and the new Single Vineyard. The wine has always been high quality, and today, with new winemaker Shane Virgo, they are striving to lift the bar even further with the release of the Single Vineyard range.\nThe Red Hill Estate Cellar Door has information about the wine making process with several educational displays to let wine enthusiasts in on some of the secrets behind the Red Hill Estate wine making techniques. The Cellar Door is open every day from 11am to 5pm (except Christmas Day).\nThe well-known and respected Max’s Restaurant was first developed in 1995, with perhaps the most stunning of all views of any restaurant on the Peninsula. The restaurant most recently won the Victorian Tourism Award for Best Tourism Restaurant. Max still operates the restaurant to this day and designs his dishes to complement the range of Red Hill Estate wines. The restaurant is open for lunch daily and dinner on Friday and Saturday evenings. For more information please visit redhillestate.com.au"}
