"HOUSTON (AP) Dallas coach Rick Carlisle didn’t want his team to get overexcited about its convincing victory over the Houston Rockets on Sunday.\n\nHe was, however, quick to note the importance of the victory.\n\n“This is a big win. There's no question about that,” Carlisle said. “You come in here, this is a big-time place to play and you're playing against great players. So our guys deserve credit but this is a process and it’s day by day and week by week and we've got to continue to go for daily improvement.”\n\nThe Mavericks scored 45 points in the first quarter and were up 78-60 at halftime. Hardaway had 19 in the half, Doncic 17 and Kristaps Porzingis 15.\n\nJames Harden was asked what Houston did wrong defensively.\n\n“Everything,” he said. “We allowed them to do whatever they wanted to do from the beginning of the game and when you give a team like that comfort ... they gain confidence. And that's what they did.”\n\nThe Mavericks has won five straight, scoring at least 137 in the last three. Houston has lost three straight after winning eight in a row.\n\nDallas knew that the Rockets had a quick turnaround after playing a game in Los Angeles on Friday night and focused on getting off to a good start.\n\n“It was important,” Hardaway said. “We wanted to make sure we came out of the gate with some firepower, some energy.”\n\nThe Mavericks got a dunk from Dwight Powell to push the lead to 11 early in the fourth quarter. Houston used a 6-0 run after that shot to get to 110-105 with 9 minutes to go.\n\nDoncic ended the run with a jump shot, but Russell Westbrook added a basket seconds later to cut it to five again.\n\nDallas was still up by 5 later in the quarter before scoring the next five points, with a dunk from Hardaway, to make it 119-109 midway through period, and Houston didn't get close again.\n\nThe Mavericks had extended the lead to 16 later in the fourth when Doncic scored six points in a row, capped by a 3-pointer to make it 132-113 with about 3 1/2 minutes to go.\n\nDallas led by 20 in the third quarter before Houston scored the next seven points, with a 3-pointer from Tucker, to get to 89-76 midway through the period.\n\nThe Mavericks were up by 16 later in the third after two free throws by Dorian Finney-Smith before Tucker made consecutive baskets to cut the lead to 103-91.\n\nHarden added two free throws, but Hardaway made a jump shot seconds later to make it 105-93.\n\nWestbrook made a basket to wrap up the third quarter and cut the lead to 10 entering the fourth.\n\nHardaway has been an important player for the Mavericks this season after undergoing surgery on his left leg because of a stress fracture in April.\n\n“My leg feels amazing,” Hardaway said. “I'm getting back to my old self and just trying to make the most out of the opportunity right now.”\n\nSunday was his third straight game with at least 16 points after he had just one such performance in his first 13 games this season.\n\nHouston coach Mike D’Antoni on the team’s start Sunday: “They punched us good and we fall all the way back. A lot of time when you do that, you run out of gas.”"

"\nINDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A gunman killed eight people and wounded several others before apparently taking his own life in a late-night attack at a FedEx facility near the Indianapolis airport, police said, in the latest in a spate of mass shootings in the United States after a relative lull during the pandemic.\n\nFive people were hospitalized after the Thursday night shooting, according to police. One of them had critical injuries, police spokesperson Genae Cook said. Another two people were treated and released at the scene. FedEx said people who worked for the company were among the dead.\n\nA witness said that he was working inside the building when he heard several gunshots in rapid succession.\n\n“I see a man come out with a rifle in his hand and he starts firing and he starts yellin’ stuff that I could not understand,” Levi Miller told WTHR-TV. “What I ended up doing was ducking down to make sure he did not see me because I thought he would see me and he would shoot me.”\n\nIt was the latest in a recent string of mass shootings across the U.S. Last month, eight people were fatally shot at massage businesses across the Atlanta area, and 10 died in gunfire at a supermarket in Boulder, Colorado.\n\nIt was at least the third mass shooting this year in Indianapolis alone. Five people, including a pregnant woman, were shot and killed in January, and a man was accused of killing three adults and a child before abducting his daughter during an argument at a home in March.\n\nPolice have not identified the shooter or said whether he was an employee at the facility. They said “preliminary information from evidence at the scene” indicated that he died by suicide.\n\n“We’re still trying to ascertain the exact reason and cause for this incident,” Cook said.\n\nCraig McCartt, of the Indianapolis police, told NBC Today early Friday that officers still knew “very little.” Chris Bavender, a spokesperson for the FBI’s Indianapolis office, said that they are helping the police with the investigation.\n\nFamily members gathered at a nearby hotel to await word on loved ones — and some employees were bused there for tearful reunions. But other relatives said they still had no information about their loved ones hours later. Most employees aren’t allowed to carry cellphones inside the FedEx building, making contact with them difficult.\n\n“When you see notifications on your phone, but you’re not getting a text back from your kid and you’re not getting information and you still don’t know where they are … what are you supposed to do?” said Mindy Carson, holding back tears. Her daughter, Jessica, works in the facility and she had not heard from her.\n\nPolice were called to reports of gunfire Thursday just after 11 p.m., and officers “came in contact with (an) active shooter incident,” Cook said. The gunman later killed himself.\n\n“The officers responded, they came in and did their job. A lot of them are trying to face this, because this is a sight that no one should have to see,” Cook said.\n\nThe White House said President Joe Biden would be briefed on the shooting and that advisors have been in touch with the city’s mayor and law enforcement officials.\n\nIndianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett lamented that the city was “confronted with the horrific news of yet another mass shooting, an act of violence that senselessly claimed the lives of eight of our neighbors.”\n\nFedEx released a statement saying it is cooperating with authorities.\n\n“We are deeply shocked and saddened by the loss of our team members following the tragic shooting at our FedEx Ground facility in Indianapolis,” the statement said. “Our most heartfelt sympathies are with all those affected by this senseless act of violence.”\n\nA man told WTTV that his niece was sitting in the driver’s seat of her car when the gunfire erupted, and she was wounded.\n\n“She got shot on her left arm,” said Parminder Singh. “She’s fine, she’s in the hospital now.”\n\nHe said his niece did not know the shooter.\n\nCHICAGO — The City Council on Monday delayed a vote on Mayor Lightfoot’s curfew change — but a group of young residents are urging members to vote no. The young adults are part of the racial … END_OF_DOCUMENT_TOKEN_TO_BE_REPLACED\n\nThe fire at the former Pheasant Run Resort, 4051 E.

"Chetwynd was the youngest son of John Chetwynd (1643–1702) and thus younger brother of Walter Chetwynd, 1st Viscount Chetwynd and John Chetwynd, 2nd Viscount Chetwynd. He was educated at Westminster School (c.1698–1702) and Christ Church, Oxford. In 1706, he became secretary to his elder brother John on his appointment as British envoy to Savoy at Turin, and in 1708 became British Resident at Genoa, whence he was recalled in 1712. He married Honora Baker, the daughter of William Baker, consul at Algiers in 1715.[1]",

"Have you ever seen holes on the beach that look as though they have been made by someone poking an umbrella in the sand? You may actually have been looking at the burrow of a golden ghost crab.\n\n‘Ocypodid’ (ghost and fiddler) crabs are ‘semi-terrestrial’ (spending time on the land and in the water) living on sandy beaches, mud flats and mangroves. They can spend long periods of time out of the water by keeping their gills moist in special gill chambers and extracting oxygen from the air.\n\nTheir eyes are stalked, which means they can be laid flat within the grooves on their shell or raised for a better look around.\n\nThey take shelter in their cool burrows above the high tide water mark during the day, and come out at night in search of food. Feeding on plants, animals and micro-organisms, they will happily eat just about anything!\n\nThe golden ghost crab is only found along the Western Australian coast, from Bunbury to Exmouth. They are relatively small growing to a carapace (shell) width of 45 mm.",

"Still looks great even today as this image shows.\n\nPC 3D acceleration at the time was entering the realm of TnL and just starting to dabble in lots of bump maps and various shader effects... Plus unlike consoles, you could run at 720P equivalent resolutions and 60fps.\n\n100% agree with this.\nAlso its a amasing game, even today (not just graphics, its gameplay&story is really good).\n\nIt has aged really well.\n\nLooking back, it seems like the 90's and early 2000's were the best time for PC gaming as far as unique and cool games go. Too many PC gamers these days aren't even interested in games like this, Civ, or RTS.\n\nAlso, how much would it have cost to run Homeworld in 720p 60 fps back then?\n\nI really feel like a lot of PC games from that era didn't age well. But that's not a bad thing. Just a testament to how well their sequels have improved in recent years. Civ III, and IV would still be perfectly good games, if Civ V and VI didn't blow them out of the water. Same goes for a lot of the older Total War games. I'll get Homeworld Remastered eventually on GoG. From what I've seen it looks to have held up well.\n\nI've played Civ3 most then next would be Civ5. Civ3 was bad ass except it was usually turned into stacks of doom. I played user made scenarios most from 3 getting them off Civfanatic. I didn't like 5 that much at first but it grew on me. It was finally fleshed out with the 2 expansions. Currently just 30 hours into 6. I like it but sometimes even though they seemed to dumb it down I find myself just clicking away and skipping info and other shit. Like governors. I put them in city and then just upgrade them when get chance but hardly care or do much with them except if take over far away city then I'll move one to that city to help loyalty and prevent flipping of city back. Sure it beats the random overthrow of cities that you took in 3 which would piss me off if had lots of troops stationed there. It's like there is no fucking way partisans retook the city with my army (tried to not use armies as much because cpu never learned to use them properly in 3) or huge stack sitting in city. It was all about culture and military presence be damn. Anyways I almost had more fun micromanaging cities in 3 than doing most bs in 5 and 6.\n\nI'm currently playing \"Forsaken\" again and it is still pretty and fun... my only complaint would be the textures.\n\nI'm playing the remastered version for compatibility reasons, but the graphic differences to the original are benign:\n\nI honestly can't think of any 90's fully 3D games that have aged well, in fact I thought most of them were ugly even when they were brand new, it's one reason why I mostly skipped gen 5 as a gamer, and spent most of that gen playing gen 4 2D games like Sonic 3 and Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow and some PC 3D stuff that looked better than what the consoles were getting. Some 2.5D games like Age of Empires 2 still look good, but all of the early 3D games just look bad to me now. 6th gen is where 3D crossed the threshold of aging well, stuff like Halo 2, KOTOR 2.\n\nBoth Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are very much playable today. I haven't played Lylat Wars in a while but I'd guess that that too is still fun to play. As far as platformers go I played Banjo-Kazooie just a few years ago and was surprised by how good it still is, and I'd say it has aged better than both Dokey Kong 64 (another game that has aged well, though the amount of mini-games and each Kong having specific bananas to collect are design flaws that I personally have more issues with today) and Super Mario 64 (I don't think this one has aged well at all).\n\nI don't think any of them aged well. Some of them are tolerable, but most? Let's take a gander.",

"BUFFALO GROVE, Ill. -- A Buffalo Grove police dog will retire after being diagnosed with liver cancer.\n\nSaxon, a 5-year-old German shepherd male, was partnered with Buffalo Grove Police Officer Danielle Baron for four years. He had surgery last week to have a tumor removed. While that surgery was successful, veterinarians found the cancer had spread in Saxon's liver.\n\n\"A week ago we thought we had a vibrant, healthy dog,\" Deputy Chief Roy Bethge said. Bethge said the department was \"surprised and shocked\" to learn Saxon's diagnosis.\n\nHe will remain in Officer Baron's care during the rest of his life, which isn't expected to be very long, Bethge said.\n\n\"This is a sad day for the Buffalo Grove Police Department,\" Chief Steven Casstevens said in a statement. \"Saxon has been a valuable and loyal part of our family.\"\n\nOfficer Baron and Saxon are responsible for the seizure of more than 460 kilograms of cannabis and more than $250,000 during narcotic searches, according to the statement. He has also assisted in many other communities.",

"Making fans wonder how their absence will be explained.\n\nUPDATE (February 19, 2021): In addition to the news that Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall) won’t be returning to the Sex and the City reboot, Page Six has confirmed that Mr. Big (Chris Noth) will also sit out from the upcoming series titled AND JUST LIKE THAT… . Miranda Hobbes’ love interest Steve Brady (David Eigenberg) is not reprising his role either, although sources are stating that there is a possibility of his return.\n\nWith two of the main characters confirmed to be absent, fans have been expressing their disappointment on social media. “Big left Carrie for Samantha,” a user joked, while another tweeted: “I’m sorry what’s the point? So all we’re going to see is Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte & Harry and their kids. At this point, it’s really pointless!”\n\nAs of now, it’s unclear how their absence will be explained in the HBO Max series scheduled to begin production in late spring this year.\n\nUPDATE (January 10, 2021): Following exciting news of the Sex and the City reboot, Warner Bros. has officially confirmed the HBO Max original series to be titled AND JUST LIKE THAT… . Along with director Michael Patrick King, actors Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis will be making a grand return.\n\nDubbed a “new chapter” of the series, the 10-episode-long show will illustrate the “complicated reality of life and friendship” of Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte in their 50s. “I grew up with these characters, and I can’t wait to see how their story has evolved in this new chapter, with the honesty, poignancy, humor and the beloved city that has always defined them,” HBO Max’s Head of Original Content Sarah Aubrey commented in a press release.\n\nAND JUST LIKE THAT… is scheduled to begin production in late spring in New York.\n\nORIGINAL STORY (December 28, 2020): Sex and the City will be officially returning for a limited series reboot on HBO Max. The streaming platform recently confirmed the exciting news with Deadline, revealing that most of the original cast will star in the anticipated show.\n\nFor those who have yet to watch the iconic title, it follows the story of Carrie Bradshaw (played by Sarah Jessica Parker) and her three friends, Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon), Charlotte York (Kristin Davis) and Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall). The popular series, which aired from 1998 to 2004, ran for six seasons on HBO, followed by two films in the late ’00s.\n\n“I wouldn’t call it a reboot, I would call it a ‘revisit,’” SJP commented in an interview, subtly teasing what the new project might look like. “I’d like to see where all of them are. I’m curious, the world has changed even since the movie… technology and social media.” In addition to the official reboot, an insider shared with Page Six that all but Cattrall will be making a return. The actress reportedly expressed multiple times that she is not interested in the reunion.\n\nStay tuned as we learn more about the Sex and the City limited series reboot.",

"Welcome,\nReaders.\nToday’s\nspecial guest is mystery author Kellie Larsen Murphy. She’s under the spotlight\nto chat with me about her newest psychological mystery, Stay\nof Execution.\nDuring\nher virtual book tour, Kellie will be awarding a $25 Amazon or Barnes and Noble\n(winner’s choice) gift card to a lucky randomly drawn winner. To be entered for\na chance to win the gift card, use the\nform below. To increase your chances of winning, feel free to visit her other tour stops and enter there, too!\nBio:\nKellie\nLarsen Murphy is the author of A Guilty Mind and Stay of Execution, the first\ntwo books in the Detective Cancini Mystery series. She has written for several\nmid-Atlantic magazines and resides in Richmond, Virginia, with her husband,\nfour children, and two very large, very hairy dogs.\nWelcome, Kellie. Please\ntell us about your current release.\nStay of Execution is the second book\nin my Detective Cancini Mystery series although each book stands alone. This\nsecond book features a far more grisly subject matter—rape and murder on a\ncollege campus. Detective Cancini arrested the “Co-Ed Killer” two decades\nearlier only to learn the man has been released based on new and unshakable DNA\nevidence. When that same small college town is once again the target of a\nseries of rapes and murders, Cancini is drawn back to the investigation, the old\nand the new.\n\nWhile\nthere was no real-life case that inspired this book, it is timely in an odd way\nwith the recent press on sexual assaults across college campuses. I began this\nbook while I was publishing A Guilty Mind\n(2012) because I wanted to know Cancini better and see what he could do. I\nloved setting it in a fictional college town where crime is limited and less\nthreatening. It wasn’t hard to imagine how the shock and fear at rape and\nmurder would spread like wildfire. It was also very interesting to write a\ncharacter as sick as the “Co-Ed Killer.” Lastly, this novel gave me the\nopportunity to reveal more about what makes my favorite lonely detective tick.\n\nExcerpt from Stay of Execution:\n\n\nThe boy looked up at the tall trees,\ntheir branches thick and twisted, blocking the warmth from the sun. He pulled\nthe strings of his knapsack tight and walked faster. Feet moving quickly over\nthe slippery ground cover, he tripped, falling forward toward the round trunk\nof a large oak. “Stupid root. Stupid trees.” Picking himself up, he wiped his\nhands on his jeans, the brown, wet moss leaving marks on the worn pants. It was\nonly then that he noticed what had caused his fall. Not a root. A leg. He\nstepped closer to see a bare leg, a woman’s leg, covered in dirt and leaves as\nthough someone had tried to hide her. The boy’s eyes widened, and he screamed.\nTurning, he ran from the woods toward the first house he could find, still\nscreaming.\n\nI\nlove that you asked that because it is exciting. The third book in the series\nis actually inspired by a real-life story that I’ve taken and tweaked and, to\nbe honest, twisted into something far more sinister. It isn’t a spoiler alert\nto tell you that the book opens with the shooting of a young and handsome\npriest on the steps of the altar. Cancini has his work cut out for him with\nthis one!\n\nThis\nis different for every author, but for me, it came in two stages. The first\nessay I had accepted for publication was the first time I thought I might be a\nwriter. The essay was called The White Wine Society and was published in Sasee Magazine. I was overjoyed. I did\nthen publish several more articles in a variety of regional and local\nmagazines, but still, I didn’t say out loud that I was a writer. It was a\npart-time pursuit for me as my full-time focus was my family and four kids.\nWhen A Guilty Mind was published in\n2012 and I started work on the second novel, I decided it was real. I’m a\nwriter.\n\nWhile\nI can now say “I’m a writer”, it probably doesn’t qualify as full-time. I no\nlonger freelance so I can focus on novels, but I am still busy with family\nresponsibilities. After the kids leave for school, I try to spend as many hours\nas possible dedicated to writing and the business of writing (aka marketing),\nbut not all day. I spend the majority of the afternoons with kid-related activities,\nerrands, etc. However, there are many hours spent not writing but planning,\nplotting, or thinking about my manuscript while walking dogs, in the evenings,\netc. Any time to actually write is truly treasured.\n\nWhat would you say is your interesting\nwriting quirk?\nI’ve been known to write in the car. Because my schedule isn’t 9 to 5 and I\noften fit my writing time into that schedule, I sometimes bring my computer and\nwrite while sitting in a parking lot waiting for a child to finish an activity,\nsport, whatever. I also write in the car when we take family trips. It makes\nthe miles go by faster!\n\nAs a child, what did you want to be when\nyou grew up?\nI actually wanted to be a broadcast journalist when I was in high school. I was\nthe editor of my yearbook for two years and helped out on the school paper.\nHowever, the college I went to didn’t offer journalism as a major and so I\nchose something more practical – business. I worked in finance for years\nalthough I did take creative writing for fun after work. The itch was always\nthere!",
null,
"Anything additional you want to share\nwith the readers?\nI’d love for readers to give Stay of\nExecution a try and get to know Cancini, but whether they do or not, I want\nto say thank you for giving me the opportunity to stop by and talk about my\nwork. Like most writers, I’m an avid reader and I know how special books are to\nthose who love to read. Thanks so much and happy reading!"

"Cleaning out the closets, reorganizing the pantry, throwing out old clothes, and dusting behind appliances are tasks that are probably already on your spring cleaning checklist. A deep cleaning of your home or apartment is a great way to kick off a new season and get rid of clutter. Your home will not only look beautiful, but it will be easier to find what you need on any given day and you can make the most of your living space!\n\nIt’s easy to overlook many areas of the home during your cleaning rounds, so make sure you have a thorough list or plan before you begin. Here are ten things you don’t want to forget during your spring cleaning routine:\n\n#1: Cleaning underneath the kitchen countertops. Germs, dirt and mold can collect right under the ridge of your countertops. Clean under the counter space with a washcloth and disinfectant.\n\n#2: Disinfecting and cleaning around the toilet bowl. Even though you might clean the inside and top of the toilet bowl once or twice per week, the area right under the flush tank often gets overlooked.\n\n#3: Dusting the blinds. If you have Venetian or wood blinds hanging in your living space, take the time to dust each slat and also fix any broken strings.\n\n#4: Reorganizing the medicine cabinet. Throw out expired products and remove everything from the shelves for a thorough clean. Only keep what you and your family use on a regular basis.\n\n#5: Vacuuming or sweeping underneath the bed. Dust bunnies tend to migrate underneath the bed frames each season, so make sure you move the bed to another side of a room to catch them. Avoid storing anything but sealed containers and boxes under your bed to keep things organized.\n\n#6: Dusting art, photographs, and wall Carefully remove photographs, artwork and wall hangings from the wall to give them a light dusting before putting them back in place.\n\n#7: Reorganizing and cleaning under the kitchen sink. If you tend to store a lot of cleaning supplies and other household items in the cupboard underneath the kitchen sink, clear everything out and wash inside to get rid of mold and debris.\n\n#8: Dusting the tops of ceiling fans. Dust down all the fan blades and use a gentle cleanser to keep those blades shiny and looking new.\n\n#9: Cleaning the bathroom fans. If you have a fan in the bathroom with a visible vent, dust and clean it thoroughly to ensure air is flowing in and out properly. Dust and grime can collect on the vent plate and inside the vent over time.\n\n#10: Cleaning the washer and dryer. Run your washer through a cycle of only vinegar and baking soda with a little water to clean for a deep clean. Clean out the dryer’s vents and wipe down both units with a damp cloth dipped in white vinegar and lemon juice or baking soda. Be sure to vacuum and sweep around each unit thoroughly.\n\nAs some of you already know me… I love to clean and organized things. I love a clean, organize, good smelling house.\n\nWhat You’re Really SwallowingIn most restaurants, after 8 p.m. or so, all the coffee is decaf because no one wants to clean two different coffeepots. I’ll bring out a tray with 12 coffees on it and give some to the customers who ordered regular, others to the ones who ordered decaf. But they’re all decaf. —Charity Ohlund\nWhat You Don’t Want to KnowWe put sugar in our kids’ meals so kids will like them more. Seriously. We even put extra sugar in the dough for the kids’ pizzas.—Waitress at a well-known pizza chain\nWhat We Lie AboutIf you’re a vegetarian and you ask if we use vegetable stock, I’m going to say yes, even if we don’t. You’ll never know the difference.\nWhat You Don’t Want to KnowAt a lot of restaurants, the special is whatever they need to sell before it goes bad. Especially watch out for the soup of the day. If it contains fish or if it’s some kind of “gumbo,” it’s probably the stuff they’re trying to get rid of. —Kathy Kniss, who waited tables for ten years in Los Angeles\nWhat You Don’t Want to KnowNow that I’ve worked in a restaurant, I never ask for lemon in a drink. Everybody touches them. Nobody washes them. We just peel the stickers off, cut them up, and throw them in your iced tea.—Charity Ohlund, Kansas City waitress\nWhat You Don’t Want to KnowIf you ask me how many calories are in a particular dish, I’m not allowed to tell you even if I know. I’m supposed to say, “All that information is available online.”—Waitress at a well-known pizza chain\nWhat You Don’t Want to KnowI’ve never seen anybody do anything to your food, but I have seen servers mess with your credit card. If a server doesn’t like you, he might try to embarrass you in front of your business associate or date by bringing your credit card back and saying, “Do you have another card? This one didn’t go through.”—Charity Ohlund\nWhat You’re Really SwallowingSkim milk is almost never skim milk. Very few restaurants outside Starbucks carry whole milk, 2 percent milk, skim milk, and half-and-half; it’s just not practical.—Chris\nWhat You’re Really SwallowingSome places buy salad dressings in one-gallon jars, then add a few ingredients, like a blue cheese crumble or fresh herbs, and call it homemade on the menu. —Former waiter Jake Blanton, who spent ten years in restaurants in Virginia, North Carolina, and California\nWhat Drives Us CrazyThe single greatest way to get your waiter to hate you? Ask for hot tea. For some reason, an industry that’s managed to streamline everything else hasn’t been able to streamline that. You’ve got to get a pot, boil the water, get the lemons, get the honey, bring a cup and spoon. It’s a lot of work for little reward.—Christopher Fehlinger, maître d’ at a popular New York City restauran\nWhat We Want You to Know\nIn many restaurants, the tips are pooled, so if you have a bad experience with the server, you’re stiffing the bartender who made your drinks, the water boy who poured your water, sometimes the hostess, the food runners, and maybe the other waiters.—Christopher Fehlinger\nWhat We Want You to KnowEven at the best breakfast buffet in the world, 99 times out of 100, the big pan of scrambled eggs is made from a powder. —Jake Blanton\nWhat We Want You to KnowPeople think that just because your food took a long time, it’s the server’s fault. Nine times out of ten, it’s the kitchen. Or it’s the fact that you ordered a well-done burger.—Judi Santana\nWhat We Want You to KnowWhen you’re with the woman who’s not your wife, you’re a lot nicer to us, probably because you know that we know it’s not your wife. —Caroline Radaj, waitress at a members-only club outside Milwaukee\nHow to Be a Good CustomerIt’s much easier to be recognized as a regular on Mondays, Tuesdays, or Wednesdays. Once you’re recognized as a regular, good things start to happen. You’ll find your wineglass gets filled without being put on your bill, or the chef might bring you a sample.—Christopher Fehlinger\nHow to Be a Good CustomerAvoid Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day like the black plague. It’s crazy busy, so they’re not going to be able to pay as much attention to quality. Plus, they bring out a special menu where everything is overpriced.—Steve Dublanica\nHow to Be a Good CustomerIf the restaurant is busy and your child is shy, please order for him. Kids can sit there forever trying to decide, or they whisper and you can’t hear them. Meanwhile, the people at the next table are yelling at you to come over.—Derek Dudley, a waiter at a casual pizza restaurant in Phoenix\nWhat You Need to Know About TippingThe best tippers tend to be middle-class or people who have worked for everything they have, not the really wealthy or the kid who inherited the trust fund. Which is not to say that we mind if you use coupons. But when you do, tip on the amount the bill would have been without them.—Judi Santana\nWhat You Need to Know About TippingFirst dates, especially blind Internet dates, are great for tips. You know he’ll probably order a bottle of wine and leave a 20 to 25 percent tip because he’s showing off. —Jeremy Burton, waiter at a grill in southwest Michigan\nWhat Else We’d Like You to KnowDon’t order fish on Sunday or Monday. The fish deliveries are usually twice a week, so Tuesday through Friday are great days. Or ask the restaurant when they get theirs.—Steve Dublanica\n\nNow made me think twice on what to order if we go out. Other than that we are one good customers tha get notice and waitress/waiter are thankful that we are dining in…. 😀\n\nThe lemon I must forget about them and never asked or if I do at keast wipe them first.\n\nOrganization Everywhere\nThere are so many items that can get overlooked as valuable organizers. Just remember, if it used to hold something, chances are it can be put to use again.\n\nPocket Shoe Organizers: Not just for shoes, these handy, over-the-door organizers are perfect for more than just the bedroom closet.\n\nCardboard six-pack holder: Once your six-pack holder is done keeping your soda safe, it can make another useful stop on the way to recycling. Start by covering it with decorative paper, shelf liner or wallpaper to add reinforcement and give it a new and improved look.\n\nPaint or Coffee Can Cubbies:Unused silver paint cans are easy to find at home improvement stores for a small cost or you can easily clean out used coffee cans with Dawn®dish liquid. Recover or paint your cans for a brand new look and add decorative labels or chalkboard paint so you always know what’s inside.\n\nBefore you run out to the store to pick up boxes, bins or containers, look around your own home for ideas—you just may find the organization solution you need.\n\nHGTV’s Frank Fontana shares his five design tips for reenergizing yourself and your home to help foster financial success.\n\nWith the beginning of a new year comes the hopes and dreams of a fresh start for many people. However, it’s no secret the world is offering unbelievable challenges for many Americans.\n\nMany of us are feeling like we are losing our senses of control, our jobs and balance in our homes—and with good reason. Yet the reality is that we can’t control the stock market or the myriad of other financial challenges we face every day. What we can control is how we live and function in our own homes. We can control our personal environments.\n\nSo, take a good look around your home. Believe it or not, your house, apartment and home office could be making you poor! At the very least, they can be contributing to a poor attitude and outlook on life, which can be carried out your door, often to the office, school, church and into the world.\n\nThat’s why I am happy to say that this is one area of your life in which you can have total control, no matter what your budget or current living situation. Here’s how.\n\nRemember: If you make S.E.N.S.E., you make money! I wish you all a stylish and prosperous year."

"During the past few days the conservative Drudge Report has been reporting that Michael Bloomberg is ready to pick Hillary Clinton as his Vice-Presidential running mate.\n\nNow as someone who has donated money to, and voted for, Hillary Clinton, I say Hillary’s time has come and gone. It would be a mistake for Hillary, her family and the country for Hillary to get into this presidential race now.\n\n“According to the Drudge Report, presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg is considering Hilary Clinton as a vice presidential running mate after positive internal polling about the potential pairing,” MSNBC’s website reported Sunday. “According to Drudge, in such a partnership Bloomberg would change his official residence from New York to Colorado or Florida. The constitution suggests there may be limitations in both members of a presidential ballot residing in the same state.”\n\n“Former First Lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ran for president in 2016, losing to Donald Trump in an election that served him 304 electoral votes and Clinton 227. Helping Trump’s victory were his wins in key industrial and Rust Belt states — Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. Those states are likely to be key in the 2020 election as well,” said the MSNBC report.\n\n“Clinton was asked earlier this year by talk show host Ellen DeGeneres if she would consider running as vice president in the 2020 presidential election.”\n\n“Well, that’s not going to happen,” Clinton said at the time. “But no, probably no.”\n\n“Bloomberg, a late contender in the presidential race, has been pouring money into ads and online memes to support his run,” continued the MSNBC report. Those efforts appear to have born[e] fruit, with him rising in the polls.”\n\nIf Hillary were to get into this, it would bring back all the Clinton scandals, the 33,000 missing emails, etc. We should expect Hillary to be impeached if the Republicans recapture the House. Does anyone want to relive the last four years with the Republicans doing all the things to Hillary the Democrats did to Trump?\n\nThere are more important issues facing the American people – global warming, budget deficits, the conflicts in the Middle East, etc. The Republicans would seize with delight on bringing back Hillary’s 33,000 emails and Bill Clinton’s indiscretions.\n\nHillary would have been a great President. But her time has come and gone.\n\nThere would be too many scandals that would be revisited on the American people if Bloomberg does. Given the demographics of today’s Democratic Party, Bloomberg would be better off picking Kamala Harris. She dropped out of the race a few months ago, but connected with voters, especially young people.🇺🇸🇺🇸",

"0\nSHARES\n2\nVIEWS\nShare on FacebookShare on Twitter\nEntrepreneur Erkki Eeli Ilmari Yli-Kahila died at his summer cottage in Hämeenlinna on June 13, 2021. He was 69 years old, born in Jalasjärvi on March 5, 1952.\n\nYli-Kahila moved to Hyvinkää with her family at the age of 2. His father Eeli set up a scrap shop in the Hankonrada railway yard, and Erkki was already involved in the construction site as a little boy. The city of Hyvinkää was planning to build a railway yard already in the 1960s, and Yli-Kahilat bought a new location in Hyyinkärä, Hyvinkää.\n\nAt the age of 18, Yli-Kahila bought the business from his father and founded Hyvinkään Romutus oy in 1975. The operations were developed through hard work and good investments. Another office was opened in Nurmijärvi Röykkä in 1976. In 1993, the company’s name was changed to Teräskolmio Oy.\n\nAt the age of 18, Yli-Kahila met his future wife Seija, who naturally moved from his own work to a family business to develop the company’s management. Four daughters were born to the family.\n\nIn addition to his own company, Yli-Kahila participated in the work of the board of the Finnish Scrap Traders’ Association. He saw the importance of promoting the conditions for free and equal trade in the interests of scrap dealers.\n\nWith a total of more than five decades of experience in metal recycling, he thus had time to influence the development of the industry both locally and nationally.\n\nIn addition to working life Erkki had a lot of friends and acquaintances, for example through HyPS ‘football activities. “Eki” is remembered as a responsible and kind-hearted person who was always ready to help others.\n\nFor Erkki, work and activity were a way of life. It was important for him to take care of his loved ones in his own humble and practical way. Children and the elderly in the family and family always needed Eki’s support and help. Also as an employer, he considered it his job to provide young people with the opportunity to get jobs.\n\nErkki’s life was overshadowed by illness, but the entrepreneurial mentality and a positive and humorous attitude to life bore to the end.\n\nIt was important for Erkki that the work done should continue. The family and the next generation have been involved in building a family business that is honored to continue.\n\nThe author is the daughter of Erkki Yli-Kahila.",

"The first Cup final meeting between the two nations since South Africa triumphed 24-12 in the desert back in 2017, looked to be heading for a scoreless first half after Chris Dry knocked on in the act of scoring and then Zain Davids was held up over the line.\n\nHowever, from the resulting scrum, and with only two seconds showing on the clock, South Africa swung the ball quickly left to create just enough space for captain Siviwe Soyizwapi to go over in the corner to earn some reward for the long spells they had spent in the All Blacks Sevens 22.\n\nSouth Africa’s kick-off at the start of the second half was booted back with interest by Tim Mikkelson – playing in his 41st Cup final on the series – but Rosko Specman kicked and chased, forcing Kurt Baker to take the ball back over his line. From the resulting scrum, the Blitzboks kept possession and eventually worked Dry over on the left for a 10-0 lead.\n\nThe score remained that way until the final minute when Seabeloa Senatla scooped up the ball and sprinted away to wrap up a first victory over the All Blacks Sevens for almost a year.\n\nHSBC Player of the Final Specman, like Senatla playing in his first series event since Cape Town last December, said: “The crowd in Dubai is amazing, they always come with the numbers whether it’s Fiji, New Zealand or South Africa and I’d like to say thank you to everyone – I hope we have made you guys proud this weekend.”\n\nSouth Africa lead the standings after the first of 10 events in a season that culminates in the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games in Japan with 22 points, ahead of New Zealand and bronze medallists England. Will Muir proved to be England’s ‘super sub’ in the bronze final against Samoa, scoring a mere 14 seconds after coming onto the pitch to secure a 19-14 win in a entertaining match.\n\nFiji finished ninth – their lowest ever placing in Dubai in series history – after scoring six tries in a 40-17 defeat of Canada, to give them eight points, 14 fewer than champions South Africa. Spain edged new core team Ireland for 11th place with Kenya finishing 13th and Wales 15th.\n\nThe teams now move onto Cape Town for round two of the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series 2020 next weekend, where Fiji are the defending champions after beating USA in the final last year.\n\nThe battle for bronze was an end-to-end affair with no quarter given by either side. Tom Bowen and injury replacement Richard de Carpentier scored for England in the first half but Belgium Tuatagaloa set up two tries for Samoa to cut the deficit to 14-12. Totafu Solia scooped up a loose ball and ran in a long-range try to give Samoa the lead for the first time, but a yellow card for Elisapeta Alofipo proved costly with Muir scoring the winning try for the second match running.\n\nThe first semi-final between England and New Zealand was a cracker, settled only in the final minute when Salesi Rayasi gathered England’s restart and raced away to score the winner for the defending champions. Dan Norton had given England the lead to the delight of the crowd, but Andrew Knewstubb touched down on the stroke of half-time to cut the deficit to two. Regan Ware gave the All Blacks Sevens the lead, only for Harry Glover to acrobatically dive over the line to tie the scores at 12-12.\n\nPlaying in their first Dubai semi-final since they won the title in 2012, Samoa enjoyed the dream start when Paul Scanlan burst through for the opening try. Unfortunately for Gordon Tietjens’ men, South Africa were in inspired form with Zain Davids, Dry, Soyizwapi, Ruhal Nel, Senatla and Selvyn Davids dotting down for an emphatic 38-7 victory.\n\nEarlier in the quarter-finals, England and France were locked at 12-12 when the clock hit zero but just as extra-time looked likely Muir powered through an attempted tackle to break the deadlock.\n\nUSA reached every semi-final on the 2019 series to finish second behind Fiji, but they had no answer to defending champions New Zealand in the quarter-finals this time, the All Blacks Sevens establishing a 26-0 lead before Carlin Isles grabbed a late consolation score.\n\nThe third quarter-final was a much closer affair. South Africa led 12-0 at half-time after creating space for Justin Geduld to score the first and then Specman speeding away for the second. Matias Osadczuk gave Argentina hope but they couldn’t repeat the fight-back that had seen them stun Fiji a day earlier.\n\nWith the added motivation of honouring those affected by the measles epidemic back home, Samoa scored two second-half tries through Joe Perez to snatch a 19-14 victory over Australia, the second while they had a man advantage with Joe Pincus in the sin-bin for taking someone out in the air from the restart after his first try.\n\nDefeat ended the tournament for France, USA, Argentina and Australia with the teams being ranked five to eight in terms of series points depending on their point differential. On this basis, Australia are ranked fifth ahead of France, Argentina and 2019 series runners-up USA.\n\nWith Fiji having missed out on the Cup quarter-finals for the first time in 21 years of the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series in Dubai, they faced Canada for ninth place. Two yellow cards in the first half didn’t help their cause, although they still led 12-5 at the break. The game was still in the balance midway through the second half, but a burst of three quick-fire tries – two of them by Waisea Nacuqu – saw Fiji home 40-17.\n\nSpain started the 11th place play-off with Manuel Sainz-Trapaga scoring twice in the opening five minutes, but Ireland hit back through Hugo Lennox. Sainz-Trapaga was denied a hat-trick score when he was stopped just short, but he found Juan Ramos in support only for Jordan Conroy to go 60 metres to make it 19-14 with 30 seconds to play. Conroy had a chance to win it, but he fumbled a cross-field kick and Spain heaved a sigh of relief.\n\nKenya, who had pushed South Africa so hard in their opening game on Thursday, proved too hot for Scotland to handle in the 13th place play-off with Johnstone Olindi and Alvin Otieno among the try-scorers in their 26-14 victory.\n\nWales also finished on a high with their first victory of the weekend, beating Japan 38-12 in the battle for 15th place with Rio Dyer scoring two of their six tries against the weekend’s invitational team.",

"My property has several mature trees. They are nice for the neighborhood but come with pluses and minuses. My cousin and next door neighbor came to talk to me about the, I’m guessing, 50 foot tall Douglas fir by the sidewalk in front of the house. Unbeknownst to me a big chunk of it had started to crack and threaten to break off. Big chunk as in about a third of the tree. The big hole with the raccoon’s nest may have figured in to the cause. Raccoons? Who knew? My cousin, Margie, and her husband, Dave, had taken to sleeping in their basement during windstorms as their bedroom is quite close and in the line of fire. I had no idea.\n\nA guy had to go up into the tree, swinging around on ropes, a real life Tarzan.\n\nThey know a tree guy, a former neighbor named Jason, and gave him a call. $1,800 to trim it, more like $3,000 to remove the tree. It sounds like a lot of money until you realize they have a crew of three and two trucks and other heavy equipment and it took all day and they cleaned up after. Oh, and the catch with removing it, the city passed a rule last year that, in the case of a tree this size, one would need a permit to remove it and would then need to plant 5 trees in it’s stead. Now I love trees, but having already planted several don’t know where I would put them. This thing better survive the extreme shearing it got today.\n\nJust last week the phone company installed a fiber optic line that had to be dropped to get it out of the way. I winced inwardly as I am loving the fast internet and overheard the workmen referring to the wire as ‘fragile’ (Happy to report it’s back up and all’s well.). And on the other side of the tree, despite great care being taken, one big branch came down onto the electrical service drop. I’ve got a work request in to the power company to come tighten the line back up. I must confess that a possible reason the wire is hanging so low now is that it had been being held up by branches some of which bore scorch marks. Yes. this needed doing.\n\nBecause of all these lines they were not able to use their bucket truck and a guy had to go up into the tree, swinging around on ropes, a real life Tarzan. I was impressed at his agility and speed. He balanced on those branches like an elf and could use a chainsaw ambidextrously. He also used a saw on the end of a long pole and another toy, a chainsaw on the end of a long pole. If something ran out of gas he let it down on a rope for a refill. A lot of wood came down as he ‘brushed and chunked.’ Some big heavy pieces would hit the ground with such a thud you could actually feel it under your feet from across the yard. He used to manage grocery stores before going in to this line of work. He says he loves it. His wife was there feeding brush into the big industrial chipper.\n\nJason did me a solid and for free he also removed a juniper shrub that had been taking over and we could no longer get at the water spigot or the seasonal shut off thingy. It looked nice on the outside but inside the branches were very tangled and it put up a good fight even with the use of the chain saws. There’s now a lot more sunshine in the yard. In the end Dave got a lot of firewood and a chunk of juniper for some of his fine woodworking projects.\n\nIt was a fashion show of hardhats. We’re not talking hipsters wearing lumberjack chic. No one was wearing plaid ironically. What biceps. Dave has an aluminum silver hardhat that flares out at the brim like traditional lumberjacks. Jason wore a neon yellow safety shirt and matching yellow hard hat, more like a bicycle helmet. The aerial guy had the type of hard hat with hearing protection earmuffs that flip up and down.",

"You know that feeling you get when you had long hair and got a lot cut off and it just feels different for a bit? I imagine this tree is feeling like that. The poor thing ought to fare a lot better in future windstorms as it had a lot of it’s ‘sail’ thinned out. It was a beautiful day for it. I brought a folding chair out into the yard and soaked up the sun while I watched the circus. Having watched all that hard work I’m feeling a bit tuckered out now.\n\n4 Responses to The Big Tree Day"

"A few years ago, students in Alameda Unified School District in California still mostly used desktop computers. Wires ran all over classrooms, connecting desktops and projectors that sat in the center of instructional spaces, and wireless connections were spotty at best.\n\nIt wasn’t that Alameda officials didn’t understand the importance of modern IT for student learning. Instead, the district’s aging school facilities made it difficult and expensive to perform seemingly simple technology upgrades.\n\n“Teachers gave up trying to connect to Wi-Fi,” recalls Rob van Herk, Alameda’s technology services director. “They said, ‘The wireless is almost always down,’ and they didn’t even report it in many cases. If they did report it, we would go out to check on the problem, but the fix would often cost $10,000 to $20,000 for a single classroom. We didn’t have the money.”\n\nMany classrooms had only a single data drop, and the district lacked the staff and resources to address the issue one classroom at a time. If teachers wanted to add new equipment, such as a printer, they bought and installed nonmanaged switches on their own, flooding the district with networked equipment IT staffers didn’t know about.\n\n“We were constantly chasing our tails, asking, ‘Why is it down? Why is it not working?’” van Herk says. Alameda Unified is hardly alone. School districts throughout the country struggle with aging facilities that limit their ability to give students access to state-of-the-art technology.\n\n“If you want to run wires or cables, you’re constantly dealing with flooring or Sheetrock that is contaminated with hazardous materials,” says Scott E. Brown, incoming president of the board of directors for the National Council on School Facilities and director of school construction for the state of Maine. “You might also have some problems with Wi-Fi signals due to the architecture, but our biggest issue is hazardous materials abatement, because it’s expensive and you often can’t predict the cost.”\n\nHow to Upgrade Aesthetically\n\nAlameda made do with shoestring solutions for as long as possible, but real progress didn’t happen until the district passed a major bond initiative that included millions of dollars for tech upgrades across its 15 campuses.\n\nRather than using the bond money for laptops and other student devices, officials dedicated the funds to beefing up IT infrastructure. That meant replacing cabling, installing Aruba 2540 series switches across the network, running at least half a dozen data drops to every classroom and outfitting each classroom with an Aruba AP-315 access point. The district also implemented a Voice over IP system.\n\nWhen Pinellas County Schools in Florida undertook a major renovation of St. Petersburg High School, the district initially planned to focus on the exterior of the historic building, which opened in 1926 and counts a number of state politicians and former professional athletes among its notable alumni. But as the project got underway, officials realized that the wire conduits running along classroom walls detracted from the historic nature of the school. The district pursued grant money and is now furring out the classroom walls to conceal the wires, allowing the high school to support interactive displays in a way that better preserves the building’s history. “It’s completely aesthetic,” says Doug Pollei, director of facilities design and construction for the district. “The building is on the national historic registry, and it would be hard to explain why we would spend a lot of money on the school and then come away with it not looking historically accurate on the inside.”\n\nBoston Public Schools recently spent $8.5 million on flexible furniture and other elements for modern classrooms, including mobile interactive digital displays. The 45- to 55-inch screens are on wheels and outfitted with Airtame wireless presentation tools, allowing teachers to use them in classrooms that were not designed for modern technology. “When you look at projectors, if you want them mounted, you need a ceiling and an electrical system that’s going to support that,” says Mark Racine, CIO for the district. “Our buildings that were built 100 years ago don’t have that. You have to drill into brick and mortar, and then running electrical in these buildings is a nightmare.”\n\nIn a way, Racine says, it’s getting easier to incorporate IT into aging facilities as more solutions become wireless.\n\n“Ten years ago, you were looking at desktop computers, and each computer needed two outlets,” he notes. “We were only able to get one computer lab in each school. So some of these problems are actually getting easier to solve.”\n\nMORE FROM EDTECH: Schools upgrade networks with future in mind.\n\nIt would be hard to explain why we would spend a lot of money on the school and then come away with it not looking historically accurate on the inside.”\n\nInvest in Tech That Has Instructional Impact\n\nThe rolling displays at Boston Public Schools help create additional flexibility for teachers, Racine notes. “We didn’t want to put an interactive display on a wall and decide what the front of the classroom was going to look like for the teacher forever.” The cost of adding wireless is higher in older buildings than newer ones due to the need to hire electricians and workers who can drill through masonry. But the district is committed to enabling digital instruction by supporting two devices per person, per classroom, Racine adds.\n\n“I look at that as just the core technology that we need to get into every classroom,” he says. In Alameda, district IT officials consulted with teachers as they planned tech upgrades, trying to learn which investments would yield the greatest instructional benefits. Teachers told officials that they needed at least four data drops near their desks, as well as enough power to support a Chromebook cart and a projector. Today, the district has 9,000 Chromebooks for student use — a number that would have been unsupportable with the old infrastructure, van Herk says.\n\n“The way the schools are built, it would have cost us hundreds of thousands of dollars just to pull wire,” he says. “It didn’t make sense to do upgrades on a smaller scale.”\n\nEducational technology considered a necessity for today’s students, such as notebook computers, didn’t exist 60 years ago when the typical U.S. school was built. Here are some things to consider about integrating new tech into old buildings.\n\nWired devices present numerous issues — aesthetically and in terms of physical safety. But the increasing availability of wireless devices offers a timely solution. The networking infrastructure also must be robust enough to handle higher demand — ideally, long into the future.\n\nDistricts increasingly are investing in technology to address today’s physical security and cybersecurity needs. Consult experts about assessing existing vulnerabilities and, with physical security, seek advice on strategic placement of devices such as security cameras.\n\nVirtualization and cloud solutions offer savings in terms of time, money and space.\n\nModern classrooms benefit from more than mobile devices and other digital tools. Flexible seating and furniture arrangements can support greater collaboration. Artificial intelligence solutions also can help schools save on heating and cooling costs, among other things.",

"With the weather having been steadily uncooperative these past few months – going from snow to dull, oppressive overcast and back – the arrival of sunny and clear skies, a light, refreshing wind and springtime temperatures was greeted with enthusiasm among those of us aching to go flying. Wasting little time – believing that, if Mr. Murphy was consistent, it wouldn’t last – a friend and I made arrangements with our instructor to kick the flying year off with a Night VFR refresher flight :).\n\nNot being sure what are the regulations in other countries, I’d better explain – in Croatia, Night VFR is treated as an additional qualification to the standard Day VFR and can be done by anyone holding a stock PPL license. What it amounts to is 5-6 hours dual command time with an instructor, finished off with (usually) five solo circuits. The exact curriculum varies from instructor/FTO to instructor/FTO, but we, for example, had:\n\nIn theory, this then allows you to fly both within the aerodrome control zone and cross-country along designated VFR routes. In practice, we rarely leave the control zone: Croatia is a rather hilly country – with significant mountainous areas – and with few large cities (which at night all look the same), so the prospect of going long distance in a single engine airplane is not really that appealing… should the engine decide to quit, you are faced with complete darkness, few lit roads, few larger cities and even fewer airports where to make your emergency landing – and that’s bound to end in tears. So we leave the night bit to the twins (which then again fly IFR…), sticking to the vicinity of the airport and the occasional panoramic flight above Zagreb. You may ask what’s the point then; the Night VFR qualification is also a requirement for the Instrument Rating, something most of us are aiming for, so while we’re here we might just get that off the list :).\n\nHaving last flown at night at the beginning of last year, we decided a few days ago to get our hand back in and finally give our planes a little shakedown…",

"Fill 'er up! Brimming the tanks for our two-hour session - just to be on the safe side - with me flying first and my friend second. The lights of the Zagreb skyline decided to pitch in and provide us with some mood lighting 🙂",

"Thunder and lighting! 😀 (actually my friend doing the preflight with a torch in a 30 second exposure)",

"Ready and willing! (to throw some confusion into the stream of Croatia Airlines rush hour departures 😀 )",

"A (relatively) steep climbout from RWY 23, shot with an 8 second exposure. The weather was brilliant, CAVOK with just a hint of mid-level clouds and some moonlight to help us along",

"Who says training is dull? 😀 To have us recalibrate our sense of height in the dark, our instructor had us fly a series of successive low passes from the traffic circuit, with the target of a steady 2 meters (6 ft) above the runway right down the centerline lights. I've managed to hit 3 meters and 125 knots, while my friend did 1.5 meters or thereabouts at 100 knots 🙂",

"Something a bit more dated, back from when we started our night training in 2008. To get acquainted with the new perspective in the dark, we had to fly all the normal flight school turns on instruments only, using various points of Zagreb - seen here blurred beyond recognition - as reference",

"How to handle drunk officer\n\n\"If you are driving and there is no one in the car to take the video for you, do not take it yourself\"",
null,
"Recently, a video of a metro policeman who appeared to be intoxicated started spreading across social media. He was accused of nearly knocking a motorcyclist over and threatening bystanders.\n\nThis begs the question: what should one do about a driver who appears to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs, especially if they are someone in a position of authority?\n\nManaging director of MasterDrive Eugene Herbert advises: “Immediately call the police. If that person is around police officers who have not already removed the driver from the road, rather call in someone with a fresh perspective,” says Herbert.\n\n“Do not get angry with the call centre or the new officer, it is not their fault. Simply state you saw a suspected drunk driver endangering people around them. Stress the urgency of the situation to them.\n\n“Once you call the police, remove yourself from danger. If you are on the road still, put a healthy distance between yourself and always have an escape route should they catch up to you at a traffic light. If you are stationary, as in the video, still keep your distance. Intoxicated individuals cannot be reasoned with. They can be easily angered and this unlikely to help you achieve your aim which is to get them off the road.”\n\nThere is also the question of recording evidence. “If you are driving and there is no one in the car to take the video for you, do not take it yourself. You are already focusing on a risky driver without adding distracted driving to that. If you are stationary, discreetly take your photos and videos if you feel evidence is necessary. There is no need to threaten the intoxicated driver with it, because again, the situation will become more volatile.\n\n“Then, while social media is effective to share what you saw, there is an official process you should follow to lodge a complaint against the officer with the Independent Police Investigative Directorate. Remember, the ultimate objective is to remove that dangerous driver, who is in a position of power, from the road”."

"One of the most appreciated death metal albums to ever be released.\n\nButchered at Birth was Cannibal Corpse’s breakthrough album. After a mediocre debut release that had minimal success and caught the ears of very few people outside the Tampa Bay area, it was time for Cannibal Corpse to prove themselves worthy. Before this album came out, the only other death metal bands that had already professionally released at least one full-length album were Possessed, Death, Bolt Thrower, Autopsy, Carcass, Deicide, Morbid Angel, Obituary, and Atheist. I personally think that 1991 was the year where the popularity of death metal and the amount of bands exploded. Just a few of the bands that released their debuts in 1991 are Malevolent Creation, Suffocation, Dismember, Grave, and Immolation. And yes, I know that at this same time, grindcore and black metal were also rising out of the crypts, but we’re here to talk about good ol’ death metal.\n\nWhen this album came out, it was considered the most brutal album ever created, and for some reason it still is. Many say that Cannibal Corpse may owe their elongated success to a writer for some metal magazine. I read in this book that talked about the history of death metal where this magazine “journalist” was interviewed. When he was asked about where he first heard about Cannibal Corpse, he said “I was sitting at my desk in my apartment where I lived with two of my friends. One of my friends burst through the door, ran over to my desk and slammed down a CD with a bloody album cover and said ‘you wanna hear somethin’ new? Here’s something better than that Bolt Thrower of yours.’ I listened to the album and was paralyzed.”\n\nNow that we’ve talked about the background and what was going on beyond this album, let’s talk about Butchered at Birth shall we? Of course when you look at the majority of old school death metal records, Butchered at Birth is undoubtedly one of the most brutal out of the bunch. I suggest you to first just look at the repulsive song names such as “Meat Hook Sodomy”, “Vomit the Soul”, and “Innards Decay”. Then, I want you to look at the lyrics on this album and think “how the hell can someone come up with this??” That’s certainly what I thought when I took a peek at the lyrics to Meat Hook Sodomy (for those of you that don’t know what sodomy is, it’s a fancy word for anal sex). And although I’ve talked a lot about the lyrics and put a lot of emphasis on them, I’m one that tends to naturally focus more on the music and the sound of the vocals than what’s being said.\n\nI will admit that I find the sound of the guitar distortion kind of annoying. It’s very crunchy and high-pitched. This is fine, but not if it doesn’t have a bunch of bass to back it up (which this album doesn’t). And the crappy guitar distortion is somewhat understandable because this was about five years or so after the creation of the “indie” record label, where there were a lot more crappy sounding recordings due to the bands/labels having little money to pay for adequate recording/producing equipment. On top of that, the guitars pretty much drown everything else out; I really wish I could hear Chris Barnes’ orgasmic growls, but they get drowned out by the guitars for most of the record.\n\nThe songwriting is pristine. There is a much greater demonstration of organization amongst the band compared to their debut. The best example of this amazing songwriting would be one of the best-known headbanging songs, Covered with Sores. The re-released edition has a bonus track of the band performing this live, except Corpsegrinder is on vocals, which makes the song not sound as good. And don’t get me wrong, Corpsegrinder is fucking amazing; I just think that Barnes fits the old school Cannibal Corpse sound perfectly. That’s why I was quite disappointed when I saw Cannibal Corpse live in 2009 and they played some older tracks like Hammer Smashed Face, Vomit the Soul, I Cum Blood, and The Bleeding because Corpsegrinder’s gutturals don’t sound good with those songs. I was though very happy when Six Feet Under played Hammer Smashed Face when I saw them at the 2011 Summer Slaughter tour.\n\nOverall, this album is an obvious classic that everyone should have in their collection. Kicking off with the pure sound of the guitar distortion in Meat Hook Sodomy and concluding with a breakdown at the end of Innards Decay, Butchered at Birth has proved itself to be one of the best death metal albums in the genre. If you haven’t heard any old school Cannibal Corpse, look up Tomb of the Mutilated first, then Butchered at Birth. I would rate this album 18/20.\n1 评论\n3 Like\n\nLsuforever - 30 五月 2012: This is the album that got me into Cannibal Corpse. Personally I think both lead singers are good for the band in their own unique styles.",

"2022 is finally (or already?) over, making this the perfect time to look back on the awesome anime we’ve watched throughout the year. Now, not every title is a winner for everyone, but you have to admit that there are always some that produce absolute bangers for theme songs.\n\nAnime news site Anime!Anime! put out a survey asking people to choose their favorite opening theme songs for anime that aired in 2022, and we’re bringing you the results! Do you agree?\n\n10. Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury\n“Shukufuku” by Yoasobi\n\n6. Heroines Run the Show: The Unpopular Girl and the Secret Task\n“Julietta” by LIP×LIP\n\nAlthough there’ve been quite a few ties, that’s to be expected when so many great songs are in the mix! But which ones made it to the top 3?\n\n3. When Will Ayumu Make His Move?\n“Kakehiki wa Poker Face” by Kana Hanazawa\n\nPerformed by anisong and voice acting icon Kana Hanazawa, who also plays Maki in the anime, this upbeat song perfectly illustrates the sweetness of Ayumu and Urushi’s romance – even if one of them refuses to admit it!\n\nA spy, an assassin, and a telepathic child – they’re a mixed bunch that may sound like trouble, but “Mixed Nuts” reinforces the fact that for all their secrets and worries, they really belong together.\n\nAnd top place goes to “Kick Back!” After all the hype surrounding the long-awaited anime adaptation of Chainsaw Man, Yonezu kicked things off with a badass song that gives fans a perfect view of how chaotic Denji’s world is.\n\nWere your top OP theme songs on the list? Here’s to another year of amazing anime and the songs that come with them!"

"Antonio Conte Would Have – Tottenham Star Admits He Had To Score\n\nTottenham Hotspur wing-back Ryan Sessegnon has joked that Antonio Conte would have slaughtered him if he had not scored against Southampton given the chances he had.\n\nSessegnon equalised for Tottenham against Southampton following James Ward-Prowse giving the visitors an early lead in the Premier League opener.\n\nSpurs went on to win the game comfortably 4-1 at home, but it was the left wing-back who got them back into the match and eventually secured the three points.",
null,
"However, Sessegnon conceded that had he messed up the chance, he knew the Tottenham manager would have been very unforgiving as he had already made a mistake early in the game.\n\nThe Spurs wing-back told Sky Sports post match: “If I hadn’t scored that I think he would have killed me to be honest!\n\n“There was a moment a couple of minutes earlier when Dejan Kulusevski cut back and I arrived too late and I knew I couldn’t arrive too late the next time he did it.”\n\nSessegnon and new signing Ivan Perisic are vying for the same spot in the starting eleven, following the arrival of the experienced campaigner from Inter.\n\nBut he stressed the competition has been healthy and he is eager to learn from the veteran Croatian.\n\n“I want to learn from Ivan Perisic, he’s helped me a lot and we can challenge each other.”\n\nSessegnon will hope to keep his place in the team when Tottenham travel to Chelsea for the London derby next weekend."

"Stray dogs are so prevalent throughout the world that sooner or later, you’ll come face to face with a stray or two. 99% of the time strays will avoid confrontation with humans, but from time to time a dog might act confrontational, which can lead to a harrowing experience if you’re not familiar with dog behavior.\n\nThis happened to me a few times, especially in Thailand where most people are kind to strays and urban dog packs can thrive. These encounters led me to research this article. Foremost in my mind was finding a way to avoid confrontation without harming the dogs. Many people who offered advice suggested I run at them screaming or use mace. I may not be a fan of the dogs who bark at me, but I see no reason to harm an animal, especially when I’m the foreign intruder on their home turf.\n\nHere are the results of my research, which I’ve applied successfully a few times.\n\nThis is the simplest, most important thing to remember. If a stray dog is barking at you from a distance, it’s most likely warning you to stay off its territory. It will stand at the edge of its territory and bark to warn you against entering it. As long as you remain calm and walk away from the dog, you should have no problem.\n\nCesar of The Dog Whisperer explains it better than I can.\n\n(Caveat: I know that Cesar Millan’s approach to dogs is highly problematic, but the video offers sensible advice on reading stray dog behavior.)\n\nWhatever you do, do not run away; dogs are likely to instinctively give chase, and there’s no way you’ll outrun them on a short sprint. This is the reason you see dogs chasing cars and motorbikes, not to mention, much to my annoyance, runners. Dogs who run you down are likely to bite your legs to make you stop.\n\nFor my fellow runners out there, be wary of dogs chasing you while you run. Dogs who are unused to runners might think you’re fleeing and might instinctively run you down. The only trick I’ve found is to stop and walk, then start running again when you’re further away. Sucks for your pace, but it beats a bite in the calf.\n\nWhile you can always bluster your way through an encounter with a lone dog, dog packs are bad news. The dogs’ confidence is multiplied when they have their buddies around, and they know real well how to coordinate to take a threat down. What’s worse, dog packs don’t always signal their aggressive intent by barking; I’ve seen dogs in pack quietly flank a perceived threat without a sound.\n\nIf a dog pack is just lying about sleeping or acting friendly, you’re most likely OK. But trust your instincts on this; if a pack feels threatening even if no one is barking, don’t chance it. Walk away and find another way around even if it’s a long one.\n\nAn interesting note on dog behavior is that a dog who wags its tail is not necessarily friendly. Dogs wag their tail when they’re excited, and a dog who’s about to bite you will definitely feel excitement at the upcoming confrontation. As a matter of fact, many barking dogs wag their tails even though it’s clear they’re not being friendly.\n\nThis was the biggest “gotcha” for me as I learned about dog behavior. There are simple ways you can signal to a dog that you have peaceful intent. By performing these, you’re telling the dog that you mean it no harm, and you’ll avoid triggering its aggression. Remember that the majority of lone dogs are afraid of humans. By telling them in their own language that you’re not here to attack them, they’re likely to back down.\n\nSome useful calming signals I often use:\n\nLikewise, avoid acting dominant with dogs. This goes against the suggestion of many people, but just like with humans, if you escalate aggression, there’s always a risk that the other will follow suit. Remember, the goal here is to get away unscathed, not prove you’re more dominant than some stray.\n\nSome aggressive behaviors to avoid:\n\nHere’s a great video on the topic of calming signals:\n\nLocals are a great help when dealing with stray dogs. As a matter of fact, you’re unlikely to have any real trouble as long as locals are nearby. The dogs will know them, and the people will know how to deal with the local strays. I’ve had a few hairy encounters with dogs in Thai temples (where whole packs thrive on the monks’ generosity), and monks saved my hide a few times. If no locals are around and you don’t know what to do to avoid injury, just yell for help.\n\nHaving cautioned you against aggressive behavior, let me now recommend something which the dogs will assuredly perceive as an aggression. Use this as a last resort if the above fails. Crouch and feign picking up a small rock. For some reason, this is a gesture that dogs all around the world have learned to recognize as a source of impending pain, which unfortunately says a lot about the abuse they often receive.\n\nI’ve never had to use this one since I’ve learned about calming signals. But before I knew how to defuse a situation, I had to resort to this trick a few times, and it worked every time. It did make the dogs more aggressive, but they kept a respectful distance.\n\nWhat to do if you get attacked?\n\nIf a dog attack looks unavoidable, use an object–a backpack, a stick, even your shirt wrapped around your forearm if time allows–to fend off an attack. Don’t try to hit the dog as it is likely to dodge and move within range. If attacked, use your forearm to shield your head and face at all costs. To escape the area, walk backwards from the attacking dog, looking at the dog indirectly.\n\nAfter the encounter, get to a hospital as quickly as you can. If your rabies shots are not up to date, you’ll need to get a shot because many stray dogs carry rabies, which can be deadly. You’ll also need those bites treated against infection.\n\nMind you, if you do the above, a direct, physical confrontation is unlikely. It sure never happened to me, but truth be told, there have been times I have been worried it might.\n\nHave you had encounters with stray dogs? Do you have advice on how to deal with strays? Please leave a comment below!\n\nPrevious: y Travel on Trust and Traveling Light\nNext: How To: Extend Your Thai Tourist Visa in Chiang Mai"

Conversely, the Bulls, who just edged the Brooklyn Nets in Game Seven of their last-eight Western Conference clash are now relying on an increasingly depleted roster to beat a line-up that they realistically needed to be full-strength against to compete with.\n\nEncouragement can be found in their regular season match-ups which finished all-square with both suffering one defeat in their back yard, but Miami will have their game face on and just staying competitive in the AA Arena will be tough.\n\nWith the Bulls coming off such a draining series against the Nets and with fewer top faces to look to in the dressing room, the Heat at 10/11 giving up 11.5 points on the handicap looks to way to go on opening night.\n\nIt’s a remarkable statistic and a worrying one for those wanting to back the Golden State Warriors that they have returned from San Antonio empty-handed in their last 29 visits to Texas.\n\nOne man who they will be relying on to buck that trend and get their series off to the perfect start is the league’s go-to-guy for entertainment at present, Stephen Curry. Just like he did back in college in Davidson’s run to the Regional Finals in 2008, Curry has found a Rolls-Royce rhythm with three-pointers that is proving almost impossible to counter.\n\nDespite having a genuine game-changer in their ranks there is also the inevitable negative interpretation that the Warriors are too reliant on their star man. Coach Mark Jackson knows that his unassuming guard cannot be expected to score with the style and weight that he has done at various points in the campaign.\n\nWith an ankle injury seemingly not going completely away it’s difficult to assess what impact he could make on the first night of the series.\n\nThe Spurs are also in no mood to be generous at the moment, and although the LA Lakers are not the stiffest of yard sticks, they were ruthlessly disposed of. An average winning margin of 18 in their series whitewash will not be repeated against a more convincing Warriors side, but with the Spurs at 10/11 giving up only 8.5 points, it won’t need to be.",

"Remember, I don’t know anything about stats or paths or ends or zeros or kaleids, nor do I have any plans to branch out and learn. I judged this episode the only way I could; the same way I’ve judged every episode of UBW: on its own merits. And I judged it to be another mostly thrilling important event and important revelation-packed powerhouse.\n\nBut it wasn’t perfect. In fact, there were a couple times when Archer’s lengthy, repetitive monologues threatened to drown the central battle’s momentum.",
null,
"What saved this episode was the awesome wrap-up of Rin’s predicament, which didn’t take up nearly as much time, but packed plenty of punch. When we left her, Lancer was apparently dead and Kirei was preparing to rip her heart out.\n\nTo my delight, Lancer wasn’t quite dead yet, and he not only kills Kirei (we hardly knew ye…at least on the show…so ‘bye bye Kirei, but scares Shinji off with a little prick to the shoulder after yanking him off of Rin once more.",
null,
"I never quite understood why he wanted to rape Rin so badly, but it wasn’t in the cards thanks to a particularly chivalrous Lancer, who refuses Rin’s thanks, as things merely “worked out.” But from there it’s clear Lancer won’t be getting back up again, and Rin tells reiterates her dispassionate view of Archer, thinking his regrets are justified, but at the same time knowing she’s not the one to judge or save him.\n\nAll she can focus on is herself and moving forward. Lancer sets himself and Kirei on fire as Rin departs. His fitting final rhetorical wish before he vanishes: that Rin look him up when she’s got a few more years on her. I’ll miss you Lancer, you magnificent bastard.",
null,
"My take is if Shirou survives his fight with Archer and continues on a path with her and Saber, that would be peachy. But again and again he projects his twin daggers and again and again Archer shatters them, telling him he’s no match for him.\n\nStill, every time Shioru crosses blades he learns a bit more and his skills get a bit better, and even though he’s taking a lot of hits and losing a lot of blood, he keeps fighting even when Archer transports them back to the UBW.",
null,
"He literally fights until his body stops working, and his mind enters “hell”, both the hells his future self created and participated in, and the hell-fire from which Kuritsugu saved him. In this psychic limbo, he remembers something Archer forgot: how happy Kuritsugu looked when he saved him; a feeling Shirou wanted to experience for himself.\n\nUnbeknownst to Shirou, Kuritsugu saved his life by somehow infusing him with Saber’s scabbard. That same scabbard heals him in his present UBW fight, and he gets back on his feet.",
null,
"Thus the fight will spill at least partway into next week, with Shirou proclaiming he doesn’t mind being beaten by someone else, but he’ll be damned if he’ll let himself be beaten…by himself. That’s only the last of several great shonen moments Shirou gets this week.\n\nWith his body, spirit, and resolve all in good repair for the first time, here’s hoping the “sham” beats the “original”, regardless of whether he can change his mind, proving the borrowed wish of becoming a hero of justice is still a wish, and a powerful one at that."

"What is a rocket stove?\n\nThey won’t take you to the moon and back, but rocket stoves are pretty stellar, with high efficiency compared to traditional stoves. If you’re curious about these unusual, portable stoves, you’ve come to the right place.\n\nHere are 19 of the most frequently asked questions (with answers) concerning anything and everything rocket stove.\n\nCheck out the best-selling rocket stoves for sale on Amazon here.\n\nWhat Is a Rocket Stove?",
null,
"A rocket stove is a stove that utilizes pieces of small-diameter wood. Rocket stoves burn very hotly, and researchers have concluded that these stoves are more efficient than traditional stoves.\n\nA rocket stove consists of a combustion chamber where the fuel burns and a vertical chimney. Part of what makes rocket stoves so efficient is that their vertical chimneys are insulated, meaning almost all of the heat moves upward. The vertical chimney is tall enough to ensure fuel fully combusts before the flames reach up to the cooking surface.\n\nRocket stoves most often appear as portable cookers, but large rocket stove cookers have their place in industrial kitchens. There is also the rocket stove heater, which forms a part of a rocket stove mass heating system in homes.\n\nWhy Is It Called a Rocket Stove?\n\nYou can imagine a rocket stove as three connected tubes arranged in the shape of a “J”. The entrance to the first tube is where you put the fuel. When you place the fuel into the feed tube, it begins to burn. The heat travels through the J shape of the rocket stove and exits from the vertical chimney, called (appropriately) the heat riser.\n\nBetween the feed tube and the heat riser is where the fuel burns: the burn tunnel.\n\nWhen using a rocket stove, the flames of the wood are sucked into the burn tunnel, creating a jet of fire — the kind of jet you’d imagine might come out of the back of a rocket. This phenomenon, coupled with the roaring of a rocket stove in action, contributes to the stove’s far-out name.\n\nWhat Is the Benefit of a Rocket Stove?\n\nAccording to the World Health Organization, 4.3 million premature deaths occur each year from the use of open fires to feed families in underdeveloped and developing nations.\n\nIt may not be what you’re thinking: what is so harmful in using open flames for cooking is that with an open fire comes the inhalation of smoke. Inhaling smoke from a cooking fire is fine once in a while, but there can be severe health implications when it happens two to three times a day.\n\nSignificantly, a rocket stove produces no smoke, meaning these stoves are much better for the atmosphere and the lungs of the people cooking for their families.\n\nBeyond the health benefits, there are economic benefits inherent in the use of rocket stoves. In a talk given by Clark Semon at Williams College, he showed that rocket stoves are much more efficient than, for example, modern wood stoves.\n\nWhat Is the Rocket Stove Size Range?\n\nRocket stoves come in any imaginable size, from mini to large. There are general parameters on the low end and high end of rocket stove size, and we’ll look at those here.\n\nTo burn wood efficiently and fully combust fuel before the heat reaches the cooking area, the rocket stove needs minimum dimensions. A mini rocket stove can be as small as 8.5 inches tall and 6.5 inches long.\n\nThis cute little stove would be perfect as a camping rocket stove, and there are mini rocket stoves that are even collapsible for maximum portability.\n\nOn the large end of the spectrum, rocket stoves can be pretty massive.\n\nWhat Is a Rocket Stove Used for?\n\nA rocket stove has many uses, including heating, cooking, water heating, and more. Most common is the portable rocket stove used for camping and other outdoor recreation activities.\n\nRocket stoves are very efficient at combusting fuel (namely, wood), and as such, produce almost no smoke. This makes them great for cooking meals for which a smoky flavor would be undesirable. They are better suited for this than a chiminea in many ways.\n\nFurthermore, as rocket stoves take small-diameter wood as their fuel, they are perfect for outdoor adventures where often the most readily available wood for burning is small twigs on the ground from large trees.\n\nCan Rocket Stoves Be Used Indoors?\n\nRocket stoves can work well indoors if vented with a chimney, but it’s not recommended.\n\nIn some parts of the world, rocket stoves are used as indoor wood-burning stoves because they produce virtually no smoke. Because the flame stays within the rocket stove’s burn tunnel, there is less fire hazard associated with using a rocket stove indoors compared to other types of stoves.\n\nAs you can see in this article, people worldwide use rocket stoves indoors, an option that is much healthier and more efficient than previously used cooking methods like open fires or even cooking on a chiminea as was common in Mexico.\n\nRocket stoves are also quite common in industrial cooking/heating situations, where their high efficiency is valuable for economic reasons.\n\nCan a Rocket Stove Heat a House?\n\nA standard rocket stove (the kind used for cooking) can’t heat a house. The needs of cooking require very minimal heat compared to the needs of heating a home.\n\nRocket stoves are, however, used to heat houses. Rocket stove mass heaters (or rocket mass heaters) are rocket stoves designed primarily to heat a home. These massive stoves feature a large burn funnel and a very long heat riser that produces radiant heat in the rooms that it extends through.\n\nDepending on a given house’s heating system, a rocket stove heater can also warm air for later distribution.\n\nOne of these mini wood-burning stoves would be a better option for small spaces.\n\nHow Does a Rocket Stove Heater Work?\n\nA rocket stove heater can be a highly efficient way to heat an area or cook.\n\nDue to the construction of the rocket stove heater, the burn tunnel sucks in the fire where combustion then turns the fuel into gas. This gas then tumbles up through the heat riser.\n\nMany rocket stove heaters then have what’s called the “gas bowl.” In the gas bowl, a metal chamber forming a large bowl shape around the heat riser, the searing gas from combustion spreads out and heats the surface.\n\nThe gas bowl then sends out radiant heat in all directions, efficiently heating anything nearby.\n\nIn a rocket stove heater, combustion occurs at such a high temperature that there is little smoke. The typical by-products of combustion, like smoke and soot, stay in the insulated tunnel to be further combusted until the gassy byproduct is almost totally free of smoke.\n\nWhat Can You Cook on a Rocket Stove?",
null,
"You can cook virtually anything on a rocket stove.\n\nUsing a cast-iron pan, you can heat directly on the element of a rocket stove, just like you would with any cooking apparatus.\n\nWith a rocket stove, you can barbecue, grill, cook some stir fry, and more. Perhaps you cannot bake cookies as with a pizza oven, but there are many other tasty options using just a cast iron pan.\n\nAre Rocket Stoves Good for Camping?\n\nRocket stoves are excellent for camping and many people prefer them to the like of a portable propane fire pit or charcoal grills.\n\nMany small rocket stoves are even collapsible, meaning you can take down your rocket stove and store it flat in your car or backpack before setting out on the wide dusty high road.\n\nPart of the reason rocket stoves are so inimitable for camping (in addition to the fact that they’re so portable) is that they burn wood very efficiently. Even if the wood fuel available to you is very sparse, rocket stoves can make do with very little.\n\nAlso, as many of us are aware of the toxins in the air, rocket stoves are great for cooking because they produce virtually no smoke.\n\nAlthough you won’t get that lovely smoky flavor you can get over an open fire, rocket stoves will provide consistent heat for cooking unique and unusual dishes, even in the great outdoors.\n\nDoes a Rocket Stove Smoke?\n\nA rocket stove produces very little smoke. This is because of the high heat at which the fuel in the rocket stove burns. What remains of the combustion (like, for example, smoke) is kept in the insulated burn tunnel of the rocket stove. Many people claim that this smoke then combusts further.\n\nAs matter can be neither created nor destroyed, a gaseous byproduct of burning wood is inevitable when using a rocket stove. This gas is generally cleaner than the smoke produced from an open fire.\n\nWhat Is a Self-Feeding Rocket Stove?\n\nIf you want your rocket stove to be more self-feeding (that is, requiring less time putting in new pieces of wood), you can have a rocket stove with a long feed tube and use long pieces of wood. The longer the piece of wood, the less frequent you need to refuel.\n\nHow Long Does a Rocket Stove Last?\n\nAlthough the heat produced by rocket stoves varies from model to model, there is reason to believe that a rocket stove can provide heat for unbelievable durations, requiring little fuel. In this video, the filmmakers detail how one log created 13 hours of heat with their rocket stove.\n\nHow Hot Does a Rocket Stove Get?\n\nA rocket stove can get extremely hot, much hotter than a wood stove.\n\nBy some indications, certain rocket stoves can reach above 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. Most rocket stoves, however, are built to cook food at reasonable temperatures.\n\nRocket stove mass heaters have an exhaust temperature of between 140 and 200 degrees Fahrenheit. That said, this is only for exhaust.\n\nThe heating element of a rocket stove will easily exceed the boiling point of water (212 degrees Fahrenheit), a necessity for the rocket stove water heater.\n\nAre Rocket Stoves Any Good?\n\nWhat Are the Dangers of a Rocket Stove?\n\nMany rocket stoves have an uncovered feed tube, giving direct access to the high-temperature burn tube. If a piece of curtain strays too close to the rocket stove, it could get sucked in, causing a fire.\n\nFurthermore, rocket stoves can get extremely hot and can cause indelible skin damage upon touch.\n\nThat said, however, rocket stoves offer a serious safety advantage to open fires. Unlike open fires, rocket stoves cover most of the flame. They also produce virtually no smoke and are much better for the lungs.\n\nWho Invented the Rocket Stove?\n\nLarry Winiarski invented the rocket stove. Winiarski created his invention in the 1980s, but he based his design on the heating principles used by the Romans.\n\nAn essential precursor to the rocket stove appeared in 1780. Aimé Argand created the argand lamp, which represented a major revolution in indoor lighting, burning much brighter than other lamps of the era.\n\nWhat Is the Point of These Cookers??\n\nA rocket stove burns wood much more efficiently than, for example, three-stone fires or other wood ovens. Many rocket stoves are also portable and compact, making them excellent for camping.\n\nCan a Rocket Stove Keep You Warm?\n\nIf you were wanting something a bit more permanent, check out this round-up of the best outdoor fireplaces.

"Way to Visit the Balance Sheet of a Financial Institution\n\nBanks are organizations where miracles happen frequently. Despite an extremely chequered history of problem mismanagement, false claims and representations, delusions and behavioral inconsistency – banks succeed to inspire us to provide our money to them. Partly it’s the sensation that there’s security in numbers. The stylish phrase nowadays is “moral hazard”. Partly it’s the style of their products as well as the banks in advertising and selling themselves. Professional computer glossy brochures and video displays and huge, shrine-like, property processes all function to improve the picture of the banks whilst the temples of the brand new religion of money.",

"The response will be to visit the balance sheets of the financial institution. A balance sheet, along with other financial statements is meant to supply us having a complete and correct image of the healthiness of its past the financial institution and its own long term prospects. The astonishing thing is the fact that – despite frequent viewpoint – it will. The surprising aspect is the fact that it’s somewhat ineffective if you don’t understand how to read it.\n\nFinancial Statements (Revenue – aka Revenue and Reduction – Declaration, Income Statement and Balance Sheet) are available in many forms. They comply with regional accounting standards, which frequently keep too much to be desired. Nevertheless, you must search for banks, which will make their updated financial accounts open to you. The best option will be a bank that’s audited by among the Big Six American accounting firms and makes its review reports available. Such audited financial statements must combine the financial outcomes of its subsidiaries or related companies and the financial outcomes of the financial institution. A great deal usually hides in these edges of corporate control.\n\nIndependent agencies rate banks. These companies assign quantity and page combinations towards the banks that reflect their balance. Many companies and the long-term prospects of the banking company rated distinguish the temporary. A number of them actually research (and price) problems, like the legitimacy of the procedures of the financial institution (appropriate standing). Basically, all a troubled individual needs to do, thus, would be gather courage to step-up towards the bank manager and have for that bank’s score. However, living is more difficult than rating agencies want us to think. They base themselves mainly about the financial outcomes of the financial institution scored, like a reliable measure of financial account or its economic power. Nothing is in the truth.\n\nAdmittedly, a few important details are contained by the financial benefits. But you have to appear beyond the bare numbers to obtain the actual – usually not as encouraging – image.\n\nThink about the thorny problem of exchange rates. Financial statements are determined (often mentioned in USD along with the local currency) utilizing the exchange rate current about the 31st of December of the financial year (to that the statements relate). In a nation having a risky domestic currency this could often totally overlook the real picture. That is particularly true if this arbitrary time was beat by your large amount of the game. The exact same pertains to financial statements, of not inflation-altered in high inflation countries. The claims even reveal earnings where large losses were received and will appear inflated. A “Typical quantities” sale (making usage of common exchange rates throughout every season) is much more misleading. The only path to genuinely reflect the truth is when the bank was to maintain two models of records: one within the local currency plus one in USD (or in certain additional currency of reference). Otherwise, fake development within the resource base (because of inflation or currency fluctuations) can result.\n\nAnother example: in several nations, improvements in rules may significantly influence the bank’s financial statements. In 1996, in Spain, to consider a good example, the Financial Institution of Russia changed the formula for determining an essential bank ratio (the main city to risk-weighted assets ratio). A sharp change in success appeared from nowhere until a European bank restated its past financial statements accordingly.\n\nThe web assets are usually misstated: the number describes the problem on 31/12. A 48-hour loan directed at a participating company may fill the resource base about the important time. Furthermore, a few of the resources could be interest performing and making – others, non-performing. If all of the bank’s resources could be removed by its customers on the very short notice (on-demand) – it may quickly discover itself in some trouble having a run using its resources resulting in bankruptcy.\n\nAnother oft-employed number may be the bank’s net gain. Within an open, advanced credit-market, the revenue reveals the chance along with a sensible element of revenue towards the bank and from interest differentials must be minimum. The banks go to give their clients the cheap resources at exorbitant prices, thus enjoying tremendous interest income. In several places the revenue from government securities is tax-free, which presents another type of subsidy. A higher income from curiosity is just a signal of weakness here today, there tomorrow. Preferred signal must be revenue from businesses (costs, profits and other expenses).\n\nCertainly a few key ratios are to see. There is a related issue if the bank is certified with international banking organizations. The latter problem other defined proportions along with regulatory capital needs. Compliance with your needs is just a minimum within the lack of which, the financial institution ought to be seen as really dangerous.\n\nThe return about the lender’s equity (ROE) may be the net gain divided by its common value. This may be misleading since the Agreement is ill-equipped to cope with hazards related to emerging markets, where standard costs of much more and 33% would be the majority. But percentages aren’t cure-alls. Inasmuch as the amounts that include them could be toyed with – they may be susceptible to distortion and treatment. It’s true that it’s easier to have large percentages than minimal ones. Large percentages are indicative of its capability to expand its business and, therefore, of the bank’s fundamental power of procedures and supplies."

"Van Hattum & Blankevoort has received the commission to realize the new footbridge across the railways at Roosendaal. West 8 has been responsible for the architectural design of the bridge while Van Hattum & Blankevoort’s daughter company Volker Staal en Funderingen (Volker Steel and Foundations) will be responsible for the design and realization of the bridge, which needs to be finished at the beginning of 2014.\n\nMuch emphasis was placed on the architectural design of the bridge. West 8 designed a footbridge which pays homage to the historical station area. The bridge will get a blue grey colour. From up front this creates the perception of technical neutrality, whilst it’s identical to the colour of the existing historical platform roofs. In gloomy weather the bridge will seem to dissolve into the sky, seen from a distance. The construction of the bridge rests on four concrete pillars which will be covered with brick masonry. This material is less vulnerable for graffiti and is consistent with the ‘brick architecture’ found in the area. The facade’s brickwork is rotated slightly with respect to the concrete pillars. This adds sculpturality to the whole design.\n\nOn purpose the design has been kept simple and the use of glass facilitates maximal transparency. Only on the ends of the bridge there is a part reserved for artwork. The choice of artwork still needs to be made in close collaboration with neighbouring residents.\n\nWith the construction of the bridge, the city centre will be connected with the Railway Port area. As part of the revitalization programme ‘Railway Port’, this new connection is crucial for the revival of this part of town. Total construction costs are estimated at 3.15 Million Euros, which the Province of Noord-Brabant, central government, the Municipality of Roosendaal and ProRail will share the cost.",

"Two Queens in a Kitchen is one of the most brilliantly straightforward titles you’re likely to hear. It’s well, just that: A “turn-to-relevance” cooking show featuring pairs of Chicago queens and queers discussing family, home, politics, culture, and art while making a healthy snack.\n\nThe second season explores topics like the power of intersectional feminism, how to seek moments of pleasure in hostile climates, and the inter-workings of pursuing joy as a marginalized person―over banana oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, tossed chicken salad, and strawberry bruschetta.\n\nIn the season’s first episode (below) 2QIK creator/director Elijah McKinnon and Open TV founder Aymar Jean Christian chat about creating Open TV, claiming space, and the future of artistic incubation in the digital age all while making a fresh avocado salad and some fruity boozy concoctions.\n\nThe second season of Two Queens in a Kitchen premieres today July 18 at 5pm (ET) on OpenTV, but check out the first episode ahead of the premiere, right here:"

"The strain in ties between Israel and Russia were laid bare on Wednesday as President Vladimir Putin hosted talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu focusing on Iran’s role in Syria. Before the meeting in Moscow, Netanyahu said the key agenda points would be military co-operation and Syria and curbing Iranian influence in the country.\n\n“We will continue to act until we get the Iranians out of Syria because Iran threatens to destroy Israel,” he said. “The biggest threat to stability and security of the region is Iran,” Netanyahu said. It was a message he repeated during a meeting with Putin before closed-door negotiations began.\n\nHis visit came as Putin intensified efforts to find a political resolution to the conflict in Syria. Earlier in February, the Russian president hosted talks with the leaders of Iran and Turkey.\n\nThe talks between Putin, Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Iran’s Hassan Rouhani on Valentine’s Day were dominated by the fallout from U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to pull American troops from Syria.\n\nTrump’s plans, since changed, leave Netanyahu with one fewer ally against Iranian influence in a country torn apart by eight years of war.\n\n“The withdrawal puts Israel in an even more difficult position than previously,” says Anna Borshchevskaya, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “Israel’s only real ally in the conflict now is Russia.”\n\nBefore Wednesday’s talks, Netanyahu made it clear that he regards Putin as a key player who can curb Iranian influence and proxies backed by Tehran. But analysts say Putin may be unable or unwilling to intervene on Israel’s behalf.\n\n“Moscow ultimately has neither the ability nor desire to do so, but he is interested in the pretense of being helpful. The fact of the matter is, Putin’s entire Syria strategy has been predicated on a partnership with Iran.”\n\nIsrael has responded to Iran’s growing presence in Syria by launching dozens of air strikes against militants backed by Tehran. Netanyahu says those militants want to use Syria as a launching pad to attack Israel. But as the war in Syria appears to wind down, Russia’s patience with Israel’s air campaign appears to be running thin.\n\nIn Sochi this month, Putin promised that the territorial integrity of Syria would be restored and news organizations run by the Kremlin have voiced loud criticism of recent Israeli sorties over Syria.\n\nWhen Netanyahu last visited Russia in May, the relationship between the two leaders looked rosier. The Israeli president was one of just two world leaders to stand side by side with Putin during a bombastic military parade on Red Square to commemorate the end of the Second World War.\n\nRelations have been more strained since September when Moscow blamed Israel for shooting down a Russian surveillance plane over the Mediterranean.\n\nAfter the incident, Netanyahu failed to organize an official meeting at the Paris Peace Forum in November, although the two leaders did meet several times on the sidelines. The meeting in Moscow this week, the first since November, was not without complications.\n\nWith elections looming in Israel, Netanyahu made a last-minute delay to the talks, originally scheduled for last week, over fears that two opposition parties were forming a coalition before the April ballot.\n\nAnalysts said his trip to Moscow may be a calculated part of that campaign and that it will have a resonance at home in the lead up to the polls. The plan may be to show Netanyahu as a mover and shaker in the international arena.",

"All the while they gather gossip . . . they spread it everywhere (v.6).\n\nRecently I read about one woman’s struggle to stop gossiping. As the mother of a child in nursery school, Sandy confessed to dishing the dirt about other parents and even spreading information about her son’s playmates. She knew it was wrong so she tried to go ‘cold turkey’. When that didn’t work she attempted to put a positive spin on other people’s business. In the end she admitted that gossip’s grip would probably keep winning; she just couldn’t resist sharing one more juicy titbit about a dad on the playground . . .
Gossip gets serious when we consider what it’s like to be the subject of someone’s harmful words. David wrote about this experience, stating, “My enemies say nothing but evil about me. . . . They gather gossip, and when they leave, they spread it everywhere” (Psalm 41:5-6). Like vultures, they circled his bed and slandered him when he was sick and weak (vv.7-8).\n\nDavid realised what was happening and prayed, “Make me well again, so I can pay them back!” (v.10). His anger stemmed from being deceived and lied about. His visitors pretended to be friendly, but later betrayed him by publicising their worst imaginings about him (vv.6-7). It’s no wonder that Proverbs says, “A gossiping tongue causes anger” (25:23).\n\nGossip causes anger and it also causes fear. After another encounter with gossip, David said to God, “I am constantly hounded by those who slander me. . . . But when I am afraid, I will put my trust in You” (Psalm 56:2-3). When stories spread, the one in trouble may fear: Who knows about it now? Who spilled my news in the first place?\n\nGossip requires an awareness of what’s going on in someone’s life. God is pleased when we use that information to fuel our prayer lives (Ephesians 1:15-16; Colossians 1:3-4), not the rumour mill. —Jennifer Benson Schuldt",

"Meet the salmon scientist at the center of the Pebble fight",
null,
"WOOD-TIKCHIK STATE PARK, Alaska — The storm tracked the path of the salmon, rolling upriver from tidewater to Lake Nerka, just one in the stack of glassy fingers across the nation’s biggest and most remote state park.\n\nBeneath the steady static of rain on a tin roof, University of Washington aquatic ecologist Daniel Schindler made some soup.\n\nOn a clear day, he’d be wading through thousands of hump-backed, hooked-jawed sockeye that turn the pristine waters of southwestern Alaska red every year.\n\nSchindler has put himself in the middle of the two-decade fight over the Pebble mine, a proposal to build one of the world’s largest gold and copper mines roughly 100 miles east of Lake Nerka.\n\nAs a preeminent salmon expert, his research not only has become a cornerstone of mine opposition, but informed the Obama administration’s 2014 attempt to block large-scale mining anywhere in Bristol Bay.\n\nNow, Schindler offers scathing criticism of the ongoing Army Corps of Engineers’ environmental review for Pebble, which found no threat to the fishery.\n\n\"It’s easy to appear as a frothing-at-the-mouth conservation person here,\" he said, \"but these are just ridiculous assumptions that they’ve made.\"\n\nSchindler has penned editorials calling for a tougher review of Pebble and spoken at press conferences held by mine opponents. The advocacy puts him in the crosshairs of mining company Pebble LP, which says he is out of his depth, and its supporters, who write him off as environmentalists’ stooge.\n\nIt’s a crash course for scientists wading into heated waters.\n\n\"I’m not trying to be on anyone’s side here,\" Schindler said, with a calm shrug of crossed arms that are muscled like those of a fisherman.\n\n\"If we’re going to speak as scientists, as technical experts, we better be able to back up anything we say with technical information,\" he said.\n\nThe data, Schindler said, does not support Pebble.\n\nBristol Bay needed the September rain, the first real downpour of a summer racked by drought and rare wildfires.\n\nThe season was coming to a close at the University of Washington’s Alaska Salmon Program’s base camp on the shores of Lake Nerka. All but one graduate student had left the cluster of rustic cabins.\n\nThe first was built in 1947, mostly by a hired local man named Wilbur Church, whose trouble got his name attached to the fog-shrouded mountain towering over camp.\n\nSchindler arrived five decades later to help lead what is now the world’s longest-running salmon research program and helped build the newer structures that ring the original log cabin. He spends his school year in Seattle, teaching and writing, and summers in the wilds of Bristol Bay.\n\nWhen they are not out catching and counting salmon, measuring water levels or collecting other data, Schindler, his colleagues and students must do all the chores necessary to get the cabins ready for the Alaskan winter.\n\nBarge or float plane is the only way to reach the outpost, roughly 25 miles from the nearest town: Aleknagik, population 219. To save on expensive supply runs, gas for boats and diesel fuel for the camp generator arrive once a season. Food comes a few times a summer. Running low on options has turned Schindler into a master with his soup pot.\n\nHe is used to life in the field. As the son of an award-winning Canadian limnologist, Schindler learned to drive a boat young and now commands one with ease on often rough waters in Lake Nerka.\n\nHis work has taken him all over the world, from Russia to Africa’s Lake Victoria. A series of \"flukes\" landed him in Bristol Bay, he said, scratching his salt-and-chili-powder beard. By now, Bristol Bay has become a second home for his wife and daughter, who is now old enough to help with the research. Days are long and full of backbreaking work, but he’s not planning on stopping his summer sojourns anytime soon.\n\n‘It Ain’t Necessarily So’\n\nThe Alaska Salmon Program’s big moneymaker is its preseason salmon forecast for Bristol Bay, a prediction of the run across the region. Many research dollars come from the commercial fishing industry, a heavyweight Pebble opponent.\n\nIf Schindler is the salmon expert in Bristol Bay, Knapp is the fish economy expert.\n\nThe economist revels in fighting blanket statements about Pebble, to his chosen tune of \"It Ain’t Necessarily So\" from the opera \"Porgy and Bess.\"\n\nBristol Bay does produce \"half of the world’s wild sockeye salmon,\" but it’s complicated.\n\nAveraging 40 million salmon a year, Bristol Bay dwarfs any other sockeye run in the world, but sockeye is just one of five salmon species. The region produces roughly one-third of all salmon caught annually in Alaska. As Knapp points out, globally, fish farms produces twice as many fish as wild stocks.\n\nAs proposed, Pebble would destroy roughly 9 miles of salmon habitat in the North Fork Koktuli River and South Fork Koktuli River watersheds — drainages of the Nushagak River. An expanded mine, which Pebble says is likely, would add damage in the drainage of the Kvichak River, the largest salmon producer in Bristol Bay, but not the rest of the region’s five major river systems.\n\n\"It’s an overstatement to say it would destroy the entire fishery,\" Knapp said.\n\nSalmon are not the \"canary in the coal mine\" but a tough, resilient species that flourishes in highly disturbed landscapes.\n\n\"But when you start taking their water away from them, and you start contaminating what water’s left, even a resilient ecosystem can be put at risk,\" Schindler said.\n\nA \"tapestry of habitat and biodiversity\" makes salmon resilient, Schindler said, allowing natural fluctuations in the amount of fish returning to a particular river, lake or spawning ground.\n\nBorrowing a term from finance, scientists call it the \"portfolio effect.\"\n\n\"Just like investing in your retirement, you don’t just buy the top two hot stocks right now,\" Schindler said. \"You distribute your risk across a bunch of things, because the future is uncertain.\"\n\nIf not for the rain, Schindler would be cutting ear stones out of dead salmon with a knife. Otoliths, tiny buildups of calcium carbonate, have rings like those on a tree, each with a chemical signature unique to the place where a salmon hatched, migrated and spawned. Schindler and his university colleagues have used the data, gathered over decades, to show how, unlike systems in the Lower 48, Bristol Bay is pristine enough to support major swings in salmon hotspots.\n\nPebble would damage less than 1% of all habitat in Bristol Bay, but it would cross off needed options as climate change eliminates them in Alaska, Schindler said.\n\n\"Those little tributaries can produce a ton of fish. They just don’t do it all the time,\" Schindler said. \"We just don’t know how Mother Nature works.\"\n\nHabitat also is hard to recreate.\n\n\"If you look at the history of restoring or mitigating for salmon habitat, we are really bad at it,\" he said.\n\n‘All the sausage making’\n\nPebble CEO Tom Collier is certain his mine will not affect salmon.\n\n\"That debate is now over,\" he told Congress at an October hearing (E&E Daily, Oct. 24).\n\nThe Army Corps \"concluded unequivocally and repeatedly that building Pebble mine will not cause any damage to the fishery in Bristol Bay,\" he said.\n\nBut critics and several federal agencies have lambasted Pebble’s draft environmental impact statement (EIS) for deficiencies and data gaps. \"It precludes meaningful analysis,\" the Interior Department, where Collier worked during the Clinton administration, stated in its comments.\n\nThe Army Corps says it’s taking the comments into consideration.\n\n\"I have no doubt there’s more information we need to finalize a decision on this,\" said David Hobbie, regulatory division chief for the agency’s Alaska District.\n\n\"Until it’s done, it’s not done,\" he added. \"I ask people to judge us on our final [EIS], not all the sausage making in between.\"\n\nCollier has long championed \"due process.\"\n\n\"There’s a lot of bad science out there,\" he told reporters in September. \"And the way you find the good science is through the EIS process.\"\n\nCollier called Schindler’s work \"fascinating\" but said it doesn’t match his company’s seven years of fish counts at the mine site.\n\n\"It’s not a place that salmon are going to go, ever,\" he said.\n\nHabitat is not a limiting factor in Bristol Bay, he said, when the mine would be the size of the Columbus airport in an Ohio-sized watershed.\n\n\"If that’s the issue that Schindler wants to carry into the EIS process, I encourage him to do it,\" he said. \"I think that those that make the decision will laugh at him.\"\n\nBut Schindler argues that the Army Corps is also glossing over the threat of a Pebble expansion.\n\nAs proposed, mining would end after 20 years. After that, waste that could produce acid mine drainage — the toxic cocktail that turns rivers putrid shades of orange — would be put back in the pit and covered up. Left behind would be nearly 90% of the estimated gold and copper.\n\n\"If they’re going to go for the good stuff, they can’t put it back in the pit,\" Schindler said.\n\nThe longer waste sits on the surface, the higher the risk. Schindler argues scientists should not decide what a reasonable level of risk is, but that the Army Corps is not being reasonable.\n\nMining has a toxic historic legacy. A 2017 report from environmental group Earthworks found water pollution issues at most modern mines, including in Alaska.\n\n\"Apparently the mining industry’s history of permanent damage to ecosystems around the world is somehow irrelevant when evaluating new projects,\" Schindler and Jonathan Moore, a fellow aquatic ecologist from Simon Fraser University in Canada, wrote in an August op-ed in The Seattle Times.\n\nOpponents compare Pebble to the Mount Polley mine in Canada, where in 2014, a tailings dam failure spilled 6 billion gallons of mining slurry downstream. Collier blamed the disaster on regulatory enforcement, not industry standards. \"Other than Mount Polley,\" Collier said, mining in British Columbia has a decent reputation, \"without any significant concerns environmentally\" at mines built in the last half-century.\n\n\"Mines that are built under today’s regulatory regime will not have those problems,\" he said."

"the show is world renowned for showcasing the latest products and new technology from new light bulb innovations to the latest designer fixtures. the show focuses on the domestic japans market but counts a number of international exhibitors. in spite of today’s economy this year’s show was the largest ever, featuring 134 companies.\n\nwhile lighting isn’t the most sensational subject, society’s growing concern for the environment has made energy consumption and lighting a larger interest. with a green theme, this year’s lighting show aimed to showcase new products that were environmentally friendly in addition to being economical and efficient. one of the stand out themes from this year’s show was the LED. many have been promising widely available commercial LED lighting for years. this year’s lighting show seemed to prove that the LED is ready for prime-time. technology insiders are confident that LEDs will not only match the level of efficiency and cost currently enjoyed by fluorescent lights, but exceed it. in order to give you a little more insight into this theme, we have gathered up some of the main LED lights and technology that made news at the 2009 tokyo lighting fair.",

"moritex showed off a new bar-shaped LED lamp called the ‘spectratrue’. the light comes in a variety of lengths and measures only 20mm in diameter. the lights were a stand out for their high colour rendering properties that were reported to precisely match the colours of any product. in addition the lamps consume very little power; 1.7w for the 150mm length and 19.1w for the 1,800mm length.",
null,
"ushio lighting displayed their ‘LED filament bulbs’ that have a rather deceiving design for an LED light source. the new light bulbs use tiny LEDs embedded inside a standard glass light bulb. the company has already begun producing the bulb in a chandelier style and globe form. the LED’s inside the bulb feature a specially designed transparent packaging, which along with their configuration, spread the light evenly in all directions. while the may look standard, the ‘LED filament bulbs’ use 0.6w and will last 20,000 hours, 10 times that of an incandescent 5w light.",

"lumidas japan showed off their LED light series ‘lumidas’ which was developed and manufactured by the korean company fawoo technology. the series features round-head and square shaped LED light bulbs that boast a luminous efficiency as high as 80lm/w (for reference a standard 100w incandescent bulb has a luminous efficiency around 15lm/w). these bulbs are much more efficient than standard lights and have the same colours as electric bulbs. however because this is a rather new technology, the bulbs do cost in the hundreds of dollars.",
null,
null,
"much like the ‘LED filament bulbs’, toshin electric company unveiled the ‘bikei’ LED lamps which look surprisingly similar to a fluorescent tube. the new design uses the form-factor of the fluorescent tubes, with the efficiency of LED lighting. the engineers added aluminium fins to dissipate the heat given off and changed the LED mounting to minimize shadows. the lamp uses 120 blue LED chips to match the luminocity of a standard 40 w fluorescent. the white light is created by blending the blue chips with red and green fluorescent materials. the light is designed for uses such as in tunnels or parking lots, where longevity is a key concern. the ‘bikei’ lamp is rated to last 40,000 hours, five times the life of a standard fluorescent bulb.",

"if one LED can make an impact, imagine the possibilities of an entire town lit entirely by LEDs. toyota is aiming to find out with their new ‘green avenue azabu no oka’ located in a residential area of japan. the small development of 204 houses will use over 1,000 LED light fixtures, on the streets and as outdoor lighting for homes. the area is currently in development and when complete will be the first of its kind. the lights were strategically placed to provide the ideal lighting, while preventing glaring and other side effects. the whole system will be 75% more efficient than using standard lighting. the lighting designers also made sure not to install too many lights. the system provides enough light but never too much. the area’s model home also incorporates LED lights into the interior.",
null,
"while it doesn’t use LEDs, panasonic’s ‘twin pa’ fluorescent lamp does feature a special sensor that automatically adjusts based on the luminance in the room. the recently released lamp, senses a room’s brightness and will adjust to maintain a constant level of light. by only using the amount of light needed, panasonic claims the new light could decrease power consumption by 60%. the light is taking light readers almost every second and adjusts slowly enough so the user doesn’t notice any fluctuations. panasonic aims to use the new sensor technology in more of their lights in the future.",

"Posted on December 31, 2014 by VMMissions Staff\n\n[dropcap]We[/dropcap] rose early on a Sunday morning and accompanied a group of Purok Pluto’s farmers into the coffee fields to observe and participate in the harvest of the coffee cherries.\n\nAs we hung the plastic collection buckets around our necks and followed the farmers down the slope into the rows of coffee trees, the chilly morning fog lifted to reveal a marvelous view of blue mountains surrounding the glinting water of the Gulf of Davao, Philippines.\n\nThe PeaceBuilders and the farmers filled their buckets with red coffee cherries and trooped back up the slope to the shade of Lyn’s store.\n\nSitting beneath the roof of an open-fronted shed attached to the store, Marivic, Pluto resident Joy John, and store proprietor Lynlyn Panolino removed green, damaged, and rotten cherries from a pile of reds heaped on a net.",

"In order for the owner of a coffee field to bring in a harvest, she usually needs three harvesters in addition to herself. These extra hands receive their pay in coffee: one kilogram out of every five that each harvests.\n\nAs the women described their farming life, they expressed frustration at the broad reality of hard work for small returns. In America, they asserted, if you have a vineyard or a farm, you are the rich person. But not here. “Why is that?” demanded Marivic turning on me suddenly and gazing intently in my eyes. I told her that I have no idea.\n\nThe next morning, at the PeaceBuilders and Coffee for Peace offices in Davao, Marivic’s brother-in-law Ariel Dubria and his wife Nening were in good spirits. They were collecting their check from CFP, and taking part in the wet-processing of the coffee cherries which they and their fellow farmers had just brought from Purok Pluto in the farmers’ own truck.",

"The PeaceBuilders team that visited the coffee fields of Purok Pluto, a village in Mindanao, Philippines. Photo courtesy of author\n\nNening told me that the money from CFP helps them a lot. Coffee pays better than vegetables, and whereas vegetables can only be harvested once every three months, coffee harvests come every two weeks.\n\nAriel says that, by participating in the wet-processing, the earning power of these farmers, who today live in dirt-floored shacks and must haul their produce down to the passable sections of road on horses and overladen scooters, will increase enormously.\n\nWith support and training from PeaceBuilders, and with assistance from the Department of Trade and Industry, they may one day be able to claim a just recompense for their labors."

"Following up on my previous post, Did Bob Dylan Sell The Copyrights To His 600 Songs To Avoid A Higher Capital Gains Tax Rate In The Biden Administration?: Wall Street Journal Tax Report, Bob Dylan’s Catalog Sale Highlights a Tax Advantage for Songwriters:",
null,
"The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the tax code.\n\nThe sale of Bob Dylan’s songwriting catalog to Universal Music Publishing Group, announced this week, likely means he is trading an ongoing income stream for a lump sum now. The price hasn’t been revealed but is said to be between $300 million and $400 million.\n\nMr. Dylan’s sale is the latest and largest of a spate of similar deals this year that come with significant tax benefits both for the songwriters selling the rights and for the companies buying them, and those incentives are encouraging transactions. ...\n\nFor musicians, a key advantage is that they can sell self-created works and owe capital-gains tax rates of 20% on the sale. That’s instead of owing ordinary tax rates of up to 37% each year on the royalty income they get from streaming, licensing and other uses of their works.\n\nThe lower capital-gains rate isn’t available to painters, filmmakers or videogame developers, who pay ordinary income-tax rates on sales as well as royalties.\n\nThe advantage exists because in 2006, senators and congressmen heeded the call of the country-music industry and created a special provision for songwriters. Then- Sen. Orrin Hatch (R., Utah), a Finance Committee member and published songwriter, also advocated for the change.\n\nIn addition, the 3.8% tax that applies to most capital gains and other passive income of higher earners likely doesn’t apply here because the songwriters are active participants in the business. ...\n\nFor the buyers of Mr. Dylan’s blue-chip catalog, there are potential tax benefits as well.\n\nWith interest rates near historic lows, buyers want the steady yields that music royalties promise to provide. That has led to a rush of deal-making. Last month, songwriter Stevie Nicks sold 80% of her rights in a deal that valued her entire catalog at $100 million. ...\n\nIndividuals and U.S. investors in funds buying catalogs typically have a 37% top tax rate and largely nondeductible state taxes, but corporate buyers have a 21% income-tax rate with deductible state taxes. That means an income stream could be worth more to a corporation on an after-tax basis than to an individual.\n\n“The income is going to be taxed much more lightly in Vivendi’s hands than it would have been taxed in Dylan’s hands,” said Lawrence Zelenak, a Duke University law professor.\n\nMoreover, the buyers can amortize their purchase price, often over 10 to 15 years. So the income stream comes with a stream of deductions that lowers the buyer’s tax bill in a way that individual creators can’t do."

"„Money, it’s a crime\nShare it fairly\nBut don’t take a slice of my pie”\n\nWhen you come to Hungary, you should not forget that although the country is a member of the European Union since 2004, forint (abbreviation: Ft; international code: HUF) is our currency. As part of Hungary’s integration into the EU, the forint may be replaced by Euro, depending on the economic situation…in the future.\n\nThe word ’forint’ comes from the name of the city of Florence, Italy, where golden coins were minted from the 13th century called fiorino d’oro. In Hungary, florentinus also a gold-based currency, was used from 1325 under King Charles Robert and forint was the name used in Hungarian for the currency of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy between 1868 and 1892. The forint was re-introduced in 1946 after theWWII, and the currency remained relatively stable until the 1980s. After the reconciliation in 1989-90, an annual inflation rate of up to 35% was to be observed for three years, but significant market economy reforms helped in stabilisation.",
null,
"The sum of total purchases are rounded to the nearest 5 forint (to 0 or to 5) when paid with cash! It means, that if you buy let’s say goods for 1553 Ft, and you chose to pay by cash, you will have to pay 1555 Ft. The same way, if this sum is 1552 Ft, you are supposed to pay 1550 Ft. This rule is not applicable when you pay by credit card – what you can do in almost every store and taxi. There are plenty of ATMs all around the city. I’m just saying, because this is one of the first question of visitors to Hungary.\n\nI will give you the middle values as it appears at my bank’s website (there are values for selling, buying and one for a middle value), so you can prepare how to calculate those numbers seen on price tags. These values are valid on 25th July, 2012.",
null,
"…just to give you a few examples. And this means, that our largest value note, 20 000 Ft is equal to just 69.4 €! One Euro is worth approximately 300 HUF, as seen on the photo above. 🙂 A great currency exchange site is available at www.xe.com.\n\nHungary’s total land area is 93,030 km2 along with 690 km2 of water surface area which altogether makes up 1% of Europe’s area.\n\nNearly 75% of Hungary’s landscape consists of flat plains. Additional 20% of the country’s area consists of foothills whose altitude is 400 m at the most; higher hills and water surface makes up the remaining 5%\n\nHungary has some limited natural resources including bauxite, natural gas and coal, fertile soils and arable land. Our wines are enjoyed throughout Europe and elsewhere. Another traditional world-famous alcoholic drink is the fruit brandy pálinka. Hungary‘s main manufactured exports include electric and electronic equipment, machinery, cars (Mercedes, Audi…Suzuki ) chemicals and certain foodstuff (beef, rabbit, goose liver, crops). In European terms, Hungary’s underground water reserve is one of the largest. Hence the country is rich in brooks and hot springs as well as medicinal springs and spas; as of 2003, there are 1250 springs that provide water warmer than 30 degrees.As for other values, Hungary is a highly musical country: our traditional folk music inspired such great national composers as Liszt, Bartók and Kodály. Folk art is quite rich too: pottery, embroidery, fine porcelain making and painting, etc mark our culture.\n\nDeclining exports, reduced domestic consumption and fixed asset accumulation hit Hungary hard during the financial crisis in 2008, making the country enter a severe recession of – 6.4%. The economy showed signs of recovery in 2011 with decreasing tax rates and a moderate 1.7 percent GDP growth.\n\nThis entry was posted on August 7, 2012 by esoponcologypharmacist."

"Superstistion, a word that is frequently used to explicate bad fortune, bad luck, the ace natural, and the universe that is\n\nnon known. In the novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, superstion playe an of import function\n\nthat resurfaces several times throughout the book. A belief that a hair ball can state the hereafter, a loaf of staff of life\n\nincorporating mercury can indicate out a dead carcase, and touching a serpent tegument with au naturel custodies will give you the\n\nworst bad fortune, are all illustrations of some of the superstitons found in the book.\n\n? Miss Watson’s nigga, Jim, had a hair ball every bit large as your fist, which had been took out of the 4th tummy of\n\nan ox, and he used to make magic with it. He said there was a spirit interior of it and it knowed everything. ? This\n\nquotation mark, taken from chapter four of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, is a great illustration of how superstitius the\n\npeople of the clip were. The hair ball’s signifigance to the novel is seen in both the characters of Jim and Huck.\n\nJim is an uneducated slave who does non hold much cognition. He is really nescient and is easy to beleive things\n\nthings. Not merely does his beleif that this hair ball has magic liquors, he is besides fooled by Huck many times during the\n\nnovel. You would believe because of him being an uneducated slave, and Huck being the white male child who has had\n\nsome schooling, that their beleifs in this superstitous hair ball would differ. This is non true as seen when Huck is\n\nthe 1 that comes to Jim for the powers of the Hairball. Huck wanted to cognize what his male parent, Pap, was traveling to\n\nmake. Huck had found out earlier that Pap was back in Town. Both Huck and Jim are really superstisoius as most of the\n\npeople were so. There was non a batch of the modern engineerings that we have today to turn out many superstitious notions\n\nfifty Huck anything that he truly already did non cognize. It merely told him that his\n\nfather did non cognize what to make. It merely told him general things such as, you are traveling to acquire hurt, but so you will\n\nacquire better. This episode with the hair ball shows that even though Huck has some kind of an instruction, he and Jim\n\nmay be more similar than either one would acknowledge.\n\nmercury. ? I merely had a bite to eat. Well, so I happened to believe how they ever put quicksilver in loaves of\n\nstaff of life and drift them off, beacuse they ever go right to the drownded carcass. ? Luckkily for this superstitious notion a\n\nloaf of staff of life happened to drift right by him, and he had breakfast. Since the staff of life did in dead float to him, mabey\n\nthe old belief had some truth in it. After all, he was truly supposed to be dead and the staff of life did seek him out. This\n\nepisode furth illustrated the point that most all of the people were superstitous. The whole town beleived the loaves\n\nwould happen the organic structure. Again, they had no manner of cognizing why it would work or why it would non. If you put plenty\n\nloaves of staff of life out at that place, one of them is bound to happen a cracass someplace. Huck happening the staff of life truly helped\n\ntravel the novel along. If he had non been able to acquire the staff of life to eat, he might hold left the shore in seek of nutrient. If\n\nhis dead organic structure. A fianl point to this episode it the widow and here parying. During most of the book, Huck did non\n\nbeleive praying did much of anyhting at all. After all, he had prayed for many things in the yesteryear and ne’er got\n\nthem. This clip he though mabey there accually wa soemthing to the praying of the widow. ? I says, now I reckon",

"Asst. Prof. Luca Zavagno of the Department of History recently had a new book, “Cyprus Between Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages (ca. 600–800),” published by Routledge.",
null,
"In the monograph, he focuses on an overlooked period of Byzantine history with regard to the island of Cyprus. Even though this period is often characterized on the basis of the supposed division of political sovereignty between the Umayyads and the Byzantines, bringing about the social and demographic dislocation of the population of the island, Dr. Zavagno proposes a different narrative – one that finds continuities and slow transformations to be the reality of Cyprus between the late sixth and early ninth centuries. He reevaluates the literary evidence, archaeology and material culture in order to contextualize Cyprus within the Byzantine Empire and the eastern Mediterranean during the passage from late antiquity to the early Middle Ages.\n\nTo further his research on the Byzantine islands for his forthcoming book “The Islands of the Byzantine Mediterranean in the Transition From Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Ages,” which is scheduled for publication in 2019, he has been awarded an Andrew W. Mellon postdoctoral research grant from the Byzantine Studies Research Center at Boğaziçi University. His project aims to overturn the commonly held idea that the large islands of the medieval Mediterranean, such as Sicily, Cyprus, Crete, Malta, Sardinia and the Balearics, acted only as strategic and military bulwarks or peripheral outposts along the Mediterranean frontier between the Byzantine Empire and medieval Islam. Dr. Zavagno will be showing how these islands acted not as a cultural barrier between opposing political entities, but rather as zones of interreligious and socioeconomic interaction, both peaceful and hostile."

"Arsenal have reportedly now turned down multiple bids from Aston Villa on midfielder Emile Smith Rowe, the 20-year-old English international who is currently on deal with the Gunners until June 2023.\n\nVilla’s first bid last week was reported to be around £25m. The latest bid was up to £30m.\n\nArsenal, however, have yet to even entertain the thought of allowing such a move.\n\nVilla recently bolstered next season’s roster by signing Emiliano Buendia from Norwich City in a deal worth around £25m, and have honed in on Rowe as another weapon to bolster the attacking midfield.\n\nSmith Rowe had a pedestrian start to the last season, but picked it up in the second half of the campaign.\n\nHe finished with seven assists and seven goals in 37 appearances, with Arsenal finishing in the No. 8 spot of the Premier League.\n\nPrior to the breakout run under Mike Arteta, Rowe spent some time on loan with RB Leipzig and Huddersfield.\n\nArsenal’s double-rejection of Villa’s bids indicate the club have no imminent prospect of letting go of Rowe. Villa, however, seem unfazed at rejection and still remain in talks with Arsenal.\n\nThe Gunners will start their 2021/22 Premier League campaign on the road vs Brentford on August 13."

"Bland heist thrillers are all too common in modern cinema; from Ocean’s Eleven (2001)-knockoffs (… and sequels) to The Italian Job (1969) remakes to the inexplicably titled Now You See Me (2013, 2016) films, movies centered around stealing large amounts of money are plagued with repetitive, predictable weaknesses: Most of them open with boring team-building sequences (Act 1) led by an uninspired cast, then transition into longwinded analyses of said cast’s financial target — usually property of a forgettable, mustache-twirling villain (Act 2) — then finish in a stylish, entertaining heist attempt (Act 3). The latter is either (A) pulled off despite a few expected hiccups, or (B) fails with castmembers learning a moral lesson, like maybe the real ultimate heist were the friends they made along the way.\n\nYou understand what I’m getting at, here. It’s a genre or subgenre formula that’s as reliable as any in cinematic history, and I’m never one to bitch about film structure and screenwriting principles for the sake of it. More often than not, I love formula for its reliability, because formulas work. They exist for a reason.\n\nDespite its well shot, action-packed opening, Triple Frontier is a rather quiet, subdued, and melancholy heist thriller.\n\nComplaints about derivative execution of heist movie formula are just as powerful, however. Most heist films are only entertaining during their titular heist job, the most reliable part of their subgenre formula. Everything leading up to that is weak sauce without a dynamite cast or director — again, recall Steven Soderbergh’s wonderful job with a high-profile cast in the influential Ocean’s 11. In order for stagnating genres to achieve resurgence, the predictable (formulaic?) solution is for genres to reinvent themselves in some way.\n\nEnter Jeffrey McDonald (J. C.) Chandor, whose writing and directing career hit the ground running with three strong, critically acclaimed dramas in a row (Margin Call [2011], All is Lost [2013], A Most Violent Year [2014]). Triple Frontier, based on a screenplay by Mark Boal originally written for Boal’s longtime colleague, Kathryn Bigelow, is Chandor’s first action-oriented genre film and first project based another person’s work. His refreshing though not revolutionary take on the cinematic heist includes admirable execution of Boal’s commentary on retired veterans of foreign wars, the military industrial complex, private security firms, etc. It also adds a novel act to the heist film’s traditional three-act structure: The escape!\n\nTriple Frontier’s analysis of what veterans can do, or perhaps should do following their tours of service is strong, nuanced, and without easy answers; it neither glorifies their tenure as soldiers nor demonizes the defense contractor (re: mercenary) nature of the story, instead letting its story frame questions of patriotism, self-enrichment, and disillusioned careerism in an ambiguous way. Much of this complicated nuance is a function of Boal’s altered heist-movie structure, whereby the film establishes its principle characters (Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Charlie Hunnam, Garrett Hedlund, and Pedro Pascal) with little foreshadowing of the 2nd and 3rd Act twists to follow. The film condenses the actual heist part of the film — both its planning and execution — in favor of its aftermath.\n\nTriple Frontier spends the bulk of its runtime detailing its castmember’s ambitious, arduous, and increasingly desperate escape route from their relatively easy robbery/execution of a prominent Columbian drug lord, the latter whom Isaac’s character had been tracking as a private military adviser. These characters’ attempt to exfiltrate the film’s eponymous area (Tres Fronteras), the borders of Brazil, Colombia, and Peru, which in the film are teaming with cartel allies and competitors of the boss they just ransacked, grows more interesting the more hopeless their situation becomes.\n\nMuch of this desperation is visually apparent in the memorable, reference-level location-photography completed in Oahu, Hawaii, whose diverse habitats double for everything from the Amazon rainforest to the Andes Mountains. Chandor’s repeated use of otherwise beautiful long-shots illustrate the imposing physical landscape around his characters, emphasizing how much these characters are in over their heads and at the mercy of both their environment and the local populace. Watching this effective, well oiled cast scratch, claw, and stealth their way to freedom as the fruits of their heist are inevitably sacrificed in favor of their survival is suspenseful and entertaining. I could not predict where this film’s climax was leading, and that factor alone made the narrative worth it.",
null,
"Leads Oscar Isaac (left) and Ben Affleck (right) scope out a drug lord’s estate along the border of Brazil and Colombia toward the end of the movie’s first act.\n\nWith all that in mind, Triple Frontier is no groundbreaking film, heist-oriented or otherwise, and lacks much of the overarching visual style of Chandor’s previous efforts (e.g. A Most Violent Year). The irony of a genre-film boasting less stylish flair than its director’s earlier dramatic projects is not lost on me, though the charisma of this film’s supporting cast are. Triple Frontier is empty beyond its starring castmembers, with little to no effort put into any of its supporting roles, antagonists, or extras beyond the aforementioned political commentary. I don’t care much at all about the latter, to be fair, though the film’s non-insignificant screentime dedicated to them is a problem.\n\nTriple Frontier is another solid exclusive for Netflix, another mid-budget, non-superhero genre picture that would’ve flopped in theatres before dying a slower death on physical media. As it stands, J. C. Chandor and Mark Boal’s latest reinvigorates the heist film without erasing its foundation, deepening its themes and development without apologizing for its set-pieces. I appreciate an otherwise well shot yet “quaint” genre movie flaunting its social commentary, actually being about something beyond spectacle without hitting its audience over the head with its ostensible message. By making subtle yet significant shifts in the cinematic heist formula, Chandor and his team demonstrate the thrill of stealing a whole bunch of money from bad people still has bite to it.\n\nSUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION: Triple Frontier won’t be winning any critical awards for screenwriting innovation or artistic affirmative action, but its solid fucking script, intelligent themes, and unforgettable location-photography set it apart from the bulk of heist films generated from the success of Steven Soderbergh’s Ocean’s 11 trilogy (2001, 2004, 2007). It’s a unique combination of cinematic elements from The Hurt Locker (2008) to Heat (1995).\n\n— However… Triple Frontier’s supporting characters consume too much screentime with too little payoff. Chandor’s command of action cinematography is serviceable at best.\n\n? Use those GPS coordinates for the sequel?"

"Roy F. Chandler standing next to a stack of the books he has written. Photo by Katherine R. Chandler/29 April 2009\n\nI envy writers who write fast and well, who don’t seem to have the creative issues I have. Two, three, four, five, six, or even more books per year for these folks seems entirely within their grasp. I can’t write that fast. I never have enough ideas; concepts don’t jump out at me. I’m not one of the writers who say, “I have so many ideas, I don’t know what to write first!” No. I say, “What can I write about next? Must cogitate.”\n\nI’ve always thought that a person is either an imaginative thinker or not—that’s it’s a genetic trait, a gift. It turns out, that’s not true.\n\nResearchers Brian Lucas and Loran Nordgren report in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology that people underestimate how many creative ideas they can come up with if they continue to work on a problem, rather than give up after mediocre initial results. In fact, the most creative ideas arise after many other ideas have been considered and discarded. People who give up too soon don’t allow the best ideas to emerge…\n\nSource: Kay: The Value of Persistence\n\nThis site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed."

"Literature\nD. Succi and F. Pedrocco in La Pittura Eloquente, exh. cat., Maison d’Art, Monte-Carlo 2010, n. 23,pp. 123-126, illus. p. 125.Standing on the terrace of his palace, King David has caught the first glimpse of the beautifulBathsheba, wife of his general Uriah. While Bathsheba finishes her bath, accompanied bymaidservants, the king immediately sends a messenger to invite her to the palace, having fallenhopelessly in love. The scene was painted innumerable times by Venetian painters, and of the manyeighteenth-century versions of the subject, Giambattista Pittoni’s stands out not only for its excellentpictorial quality, but also for its precise adherence to the narrative as described in the Bible (Samuel2:11-12). Harp in hand, David appears on theterrace of a palace that recalls the painted architectureof Veronese. As in traditional iconography, he looks down to admire a very young and sensualBathsheba who has just emerged from the water. Behind her a maidservant is about to cover hershoulders with a blue mantle, and she faces another who holds a platter containing the precious pearlnecklace intended for the young bride of Uriah. The woman’s attention is distracted by the arrival ofKing David’s black servant, an extremely elegant figure clothedin blue livery and red mantle andbearing the letter containing Bathsheba’s invitation to the palace.It is interesting that this image corresponds precisely to the description of a work by Pittoni listed inthe catalogue of the Pinelli collection in Venice. The Pinelli picture was assessed by DomenicoMaggiotto and Davide Antonio Fossati and offered for sale in 1785: “Bathsheba bathing, with twofemale servants, one holding a mantle and the other proffering a cassettina [small chest] with pearls.There isalso a moor presenting a letter to her.\n\nFurthermore, the background has David with his harp observing the scene from the royal palace. Apainting of attractive and judicious composition, with a beautiful perspective. On canvas, height P. 2-1, width p. 1 onc. 4 [2 piedi 1 oncia by 1 piede 4 once]”. Although the stated measurements (roughlyequivalent to 69.4 x 35 cm) do not match those of the present picture, especially regarding width,the description accurately matches what is depicted here, except for the cassettina held by one ofthe servants. As Franca Zava Boccazzi (Pittoni, Venice 1979) correctly indicated, this proves thatPittoni produced several paintings of the subject of David and Bathsheba, not solely in horizontalformat (there are two known, one formerly in the Perocco Collection in Milan, the other in a privatecollection in Stockholm), but also in vertical format, and it seems highly probable that this particularpainting is the prototype. It can be securely dated to the early 1720s because of its clear, luminouscolours–unmistakably echoing Veronese–and swift, sinuous brushstrokes that characterize theartist’s paintings of those years. A further confirmation as regards chronology is provided by theresemblance of Bathsheba to the figureof Diana in Pittoni’s celebrated canvas in the Museo Civicoin Vicenza, unanimously dated to circa 1723.Filippo PedroccoThe canvas is also accompanied by a scholarly note by Dr. Dario Succi, who independently believesthat this is the prototype, paintedcirca 1723, from which the replica in the Pinelli collection in Venicewas composed. He intends to publish our picture in a forthcoming study on Venetian eighteenth-century painting."

"Harvest date should be pulled back slightly to secure higher-quality forage, where required. \\ Donal O'Leary\n\nBy all reports, first-cut silage crops were excellent right across the country.\n\nThe period of accelerated growth came at just the right time in the second half of May to boost yields and allow farmers to bank a nice proportion of their winter requirements.\n\nIf harvest date was in May, or even the first few days of June on ground that was grazed in spring, quality should be excellent.\n\nIf, for any reason, harvest date was delayed this year compared to previous years, the heavier crops will come at the expense of some quality.\n\nWhere growing stock or autumn-calving cows are to be fed over winter, this should be kept in mind when setting out plans for second-cut silage.\n\nHarvest date should be pulled back slightly to secure higher-quality forage, where required.\n\nTable 1 outlines the nutrient requirements for second-cut silage based on various crop sizes.\n\nFor the majority of cases, a 3tDM/ha (6t/acre fresh weight) would be typical for the second cut. While this may not be a year to build soil P and K indices, nutrient supply should definitely be sufficient to meet crop offtake.\n\nWhere slurry is available on farm, it should be used on this ground. As can be seen from Table 2, an application of 2,000gal/acre of cattle slurry should suffice to meet to meet P and K requirements leaving just nitrogen required to be spread.\n\nThe amount of nitrogen spread can be adjusted depending on target harvest date and whether you are looking for more quality or quantity for your crop.\n\nIn early May we spoke to the farmers below about first-cut silage and outlined how to calculate your fodder needs for the coming winter.\n\nThis can be accessed via the QR code (right).\n\nWith first cut secured in the yard we caught up with the lads to see how silage supplies have progressed.",

"First cut was harvested across two dates. The earliest was on 13 May while more was made on 29 May. There was surplus grass to be taken out at the same time as first-cut silage and we have 90 bales of surplus grass in the yard. Overall, I was happy with first-cut yields which averaged 8.5 bales/acre.\n\nThe same ground has been closed for a second cut. I spread 2,000gal/acre of slurry with a dribble bar on as much silage ground as I had slurry for directly after harvest. Fertiliser went out in early June, with two bags of 18-6-12 going on any ground that didn’t get slurry and a bag was spread on what did. All silage ground got a bag of urea/acre.\n\nI am confident that between what is closed for second cut and with some more surplus bales that I know we will get, we will secure more than enough silage for winter to hold the same stock numbers as last year.",
null,
"There was a great return from first-cut silage which was harvested in mid-May. In the last fortnight, there was a huge amount of growing. Both the main cuts of silage are put into two separate pits and we only bale whatever silage we make from surplus grass. At this stage, we have made just over 100 bales off the grazing ground, which is a great boost in securing enough fodder for the winter. These were made during the weeks of really high grass growth in late May and the first week of June.\n\nI have closed 30 acres for second cut, which will see us secure sufficient fodder for winter and give us a nice amount of buffer if we are faced with a prolonged winter period. Silage ground received 2,500gal/acre of slurry, which should be more than enough to meet P and K requirements and, in addition, a bag/acre of protected urea was applied. I would be hoping to cut towards the end of July if the weather is on our side.",
null,
"It has been a difficult summer so far here. We just can’t seem to get two dry days together. I had a target harvest date for first-cut silage of 15 May but was delayed until 26 May due to weather.\n\nThe crop bulked up significantly over that 11 days but I did lose a bit of quality as a result. We would normally pit both first and second cut but given how heavy first-cut crops were, I now plan to bale the second cut.\n\nWe will be going for quality over quantity as there will definitely be plenty of silage in the yard for winter.\n\nI want to minimise the amount of meal needed for young stock, so if we can get 120 bales of 72DMD to 74DMD silage for them I will be happy.\n\nRegrowth on silage ground has been slower than usual. I have closed 18 acres, which received 2,000gal/acre of mixed cattle and pig slurry, as well as about 40 units of nitrogen. I hope to cut in mid-July.",
null,
"First-cut silage was completed around 18 May, with all silage baled. Yield and quality was good, with the average at 10 bales/acre. I’ve made a total of 150 bales so far this year, with 25-30 of these in the form of surplus paddock silage. Seven acres have been closed off for second cut. They received three bags/acre of Nutricut fertiliser and 2,500gallon/acre of slurry using LESS. With the 60 bales carried over from last year I’ve enough silage in the yard, but additional bales are a valuable asset. I aim for quality with all the silage I make as cattle feeding off it will all be finished.\n\nI controlled any paddocks that began to head out by baling them or topping immediately after cattle grazed them. I’ll be reducing my demand in the next while as I will be introducing 2kg of a high maize nut to stock I will be finishing off grass. I’m pleased with how cattle are thriving at grass at the moment.",

"Long before Adobe Photoshop and other computer graphics programs, illustrators created advertisements for publications by hand—which often yielded stunning results. One prominent illustrator and advertising pioneer was French artist Jules Cheret, whose attractive, lively posters helped sell many types of products, including alcohol, and promote events and theaters such as the Moulin Rouge in late 1800s France.\n\nThe Milwaukee Art Museum’s current exhibit, Petite Posters: Jules Cheret and Le Courrier francais, on display through November 17 in Level 2 of the museum in Gallery 202 of the European Art Galleries, showcases about a dozen of Cheret’s colorful lithographs and an edition of the weekly publication Le Courrier francais. These posters are a small part of a 600-piece collection of Cheret’s works, a promised gift to the MAM by Susee and James Wiechmann.\n\nBeginning in 1884, Cheret’s advertisements, financed by the pharmacist Auguste Geraudel, were printed in Le Courrier francais. Founded in 1884 by Jules Roques, a publicity broker, Le Courrier celebrated the art of advertising, which was a new industry at the time, but one that would experience staggering growth in decades to come and have an indelible impact on sales and marketing.\n\nCheret’s work became very popular, and many Le Courrier subscribers purchased his posters to hang in their homes. In turn, the journal published a number of Cheret’s illustrations (in addition to his advertising lithographs) and ran an edition dedicated to his works, in conjunction with the artist’s Parisian solo exhibition in 1890. Le Courrier help propel Cheret to great success, and he soon gained large manufacturing and railroad companies as advertising clients.\n\nNikki Otten, the museum’s Associate Curator of Prints and Drawing, said curating Petite Posters “allowed me to examine a lesser-known aspect of Cheret’s career and illuminate the role the magazine played in elevating the status of his art.”",

"Cheret’s posters feel light and airy. His carefree subjects, mainly women, enjoy the finer things in life—a delicious meal in an upscale café, a glass of top-shelf liquor; stunning clothes in the latest fashions, made of sumptuous fabrics. Fur wraps and tall hats with feather plumes were considered haute couture at the time, and Cheret’s illustrated women carry them off with aplomb. Some of the women are pictured holding regal white cats—Persians, perhaps.\n\nSeveral posters, including one advertising a masquerade ball, tend towards the fanciful. Cheerful clowns are linked arm-and-arm with laughing women; theatrical performers dressed in outlandish costumes pose for a picture. The French “joie de vivre” was exalted through Cheret’s ads; it’s apparent he was intrigued by the vibrant nightlife in Paris, particularly the Montmarte district, a haven for artists and theater actors at the time.\n\nTo many, Cheret’s posters appear progressive. Women casually imbibing alcohol and smoking cigarettes, for example, is a stark contrast to the prim and proper societies of Europe and America during the late 1800s, in which such behavior among women was considered scandalous (and dangerous, according to the Temperance Movement of the time). The women portrayed in Cheret’s posters became known as “Cherettes,” and their uninhibited, fun-loving attitudes and appearances had a positive impact on French women, who followed suit.\n\nPetite Posters reveals the amount of artistry and creativity behind these early advertisements, and the impact of advertising, which then and now has a remarkable ability to shape fashion, art, culture and societal norms."

"He wore burgundy boxer briefs that clung to his muscular ass. He was tan everywhere but for a pale line mid thigh where he’d obviously worn shorts. She could swear every muscle was outlined in perfect relief. Her gaze traveled over the lines and dips and swells and curves. God, he was beautiful.\n\n\nWith only 14 days left of her year-long fellowship at St. Jude, Dr. Alyssa Foster is working every possible hour to show her dedication in hopes of receiving a permanent position as a radiologist at the medical center. Exhausted beyond words, Alyssa covers a shift for an ultrasound tech and finds she has to exam prisoners, which is her least favorite duty. Always a little uneasy around prisoners, her unease intensifies exponentially when inmate Teague Creek steps into the exam room.\n\nHer gaze paused on the box labeled RELEASE DATE where the word life had been scribbled. Her lips pursed with an involuntary shake of her head. So young. What a waste.\n\nThen, as her gaze shifts up and down Teague’s body, she observes a rather large man full of muscles and covered in a myriad of tattoos. The life of prison has covered this man from head to toe, literally. One minute Alyssa is reviewing Teague’s chart and the next minute she finds herself in a choke hold with scissors held to her throat.\n\nTeague Creek is one complicated man. This former fire fighter/paramedic turned convicted murderer is not at all what he appears to be. Years ago, Teague and several other fire fighters were involved in a large fire at a government facility. Unbeknownst to the firefighters, they were exposed to some type of government chemical prototype. Each firefighter is affected by the exposure in a different way. Teague is able raise his body temperature to heat and melt items or to heal humans. Since the night of the fire, Teague’s life has spiraled out of control – being set up by some unknown group for the brutal murder of his wife, losing custody of his beloved little girl and serving life in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. While at the hospital for a medical exam and with the help of a prisoner, Teague takes control of his life and breaks free from the bonds of prison by kidnapping a doctor.\n\nThe majority of this book occurs while Teague and Alyssa are on the run. Slowly, very slowly, Alyssa begins to see past the façade Teague has built and truly sees the man behind the tattoos and the criminal record. Don’t think that Alyssa is some push over of a woman who falls in love with the man who kidnaps and holds her hostage. Oh no, that is SO far from the truth. Alyssa is one tough cookie. She gives as much as she gets.\n\nShe tossed her head to get the messy strands out of her eyes and watched him with a look that clearly said, “try it and I’ll kick your teeth in.” How could such a small woman, handcuffed and gagged, look so…formidable?\n\nFrom the very beginning, Alyssa struggles with her physical and emotional reactions to Teague. She wonders how she can have any feelings for the man who has taken her hostage. Yet as the pieces of Teague’s life slowly begin to come together to form a bigger picture, Alyssa realizes she is in way deeper than even she imagined. Teague is not the criminal she first saw in the hospital, but instead a victim of some covert government cover-up. Using every single honed analytical skill learned from years of medical school and training, Alyssa takes charge of Teague’s escape and urges her attorney brother to help keep Teague out of prison. Teague is shocked and dismayed at the support Alyssa gives him. Afraid to open his heart to anyone since those he loved were taken from him in the past, Teague gives in a little and then retreats. Trust is hard to give after so much time in prison. The road to trust and love is winding, full of curves and blind spots, but the destination is SO worth the trip!\n\nTeague pulled her earlobe between his teeth and nipped gently. “I love your passion.” He continued kissing his way down her neck. “I love your commitment. Your determination. Your courage.” His mouth moved over her should. “I love your intelligence. Your compassion.”\n\nI don’t think I have ever been so tense while reading a book, but in a good way. This book is full of suspense! Every chapter had me holding my breath, tensing for what was to come, hoping for tidbits on Teague’s past and anticipating the physical connection between Teague and Alyssa. It wasn’t until I finished the book that I breathed a sigh of relief. Then I immediately thought …. I wonder when the next book comes out.\n\nI am really looking forward to learning more about the other firefighters and what exactly happened to this group.\n\nThis is one book that I would highly recommend. But please keep in mind … it is not for the light of heart.\n\n\nNOTE: Since finishing the book, I have seen a lot of “chatter” regarding the racial slurs used by a gritty, evil secondary character in this book. I will admit that while reading parts of this book my jaw did drop wide open at the language, but I also must admit that this did not stop me from enjoying the storyline and I was not pulled out of the story in any way. The language used by this secondary character actually made me despise him so much that I couldn't wait to read what happened next and see how would the hero and heroine get away from this evil person. It is up to each reader to decide if language affects your view of the book. For me, it was not a problem.\nPosted by Buffie at 12:01 AM"

"The 2020 Election with Tiffany Cross, Rich Thau and Rick Wilson\n\nGo To Past Event\nfrom The 2020 Election with Tiffany Cross, Rich Thau and Rick Wilson held on June 23, 2020\n\nThe conventional wisdom on this fall’s election is that it once again will come down to a handful of voters in a handful of states.\n\n“This is a game of small numbers,” says longtime Republican political strategist Rick Wilson. “Going out there and hunting down these small pools of persuadables is critical because we’re in an Electoral College game.”\n\nWilson is author of Running Against the Devil: A Plot to Save America from Trump--and Democrats from Themselves, and one of the co-founders of the Lincoln Project, a political action committee of renegade Republicans dedicated to defeating Donald Trump and Trumpism.\n\n“There is a price tag in terms of lives and in terms of our economy,” Wilson says, “and we're going to articulate that in the ways that as former Republicans we’re very skilled at.”\n\nBut could this election be more a referendum on the current president? And could it be determined by more than a handful of voters in a few battleground states?\n\n“I would rather focus on people who have skin in the game, pun intended, and who are ready to hit the pavement,” says journalist Tiffany Cross, author Say It Louder! Black Voters, White Narratives, and Saving Our Democracy.\n\nCross believes that issues and policy are especially important to voters in marginalized and disenfranchised groups “because these … communities are overly impacted. So they can’t afford to not pay attention to policy.”\n\nAnd yet for some voters, at least at the presidential level, the election does come down to personality.\n\n“Are they Coke or are they Pepsi? They’re both,” says Rich Thau, president of the communications firm Engagious. “They can vote for a D or vote for an R depending upon who attracts them more.”\n\nFor the past 15 months Thau has conducted focus groups with swing voters in key midwestern districts – and concern for climate is not among the characteristics that stand out about these voters.\n\n“Climate change is not a top-tier issue for these swing voters,” notes Thau. “It kind of falls in the middle between not being a hoax and not being an emergency.”\n\nEngagious\nThe Lincoln Project\nRunning Against the Devil: A Plot to Save America from Trump--and Democrats from Themselves\nSay It Louder!

"The referee blows the whistle, indicating that the match is about to start. As I help my 10-year old son put his goalie gloves on, I recall the time he asked me about children working with dirty hands.\n\nIt was five years ago. I had just returned from a field visit to an ILO project in Camarines Norte, Philippines. As I was unpacking, he saw some pictures I had taken of children working in gold mines.\n\n“Why are those children working with dirty hands, Mama? I have clean hands and a nice watch but they don’t. Why are they not in school?”\n\nI struggled to find the right answer. How could I explain to him that children as young as five years old work and put their lives in danger?\n\nAnd then I thought of our own family. At 13, my father worked in a poultry farm. He cleaned houses as a child domestic worker. When my husband was 12, he washed cars and jeepneys (public transport) late at night to earn a few pesos for his family.\n\nAt one point in my life, I had asked my father if I could work and study at the same time. He said no. One thing was to help around the house, which I did, but to go out and wash dishes for long hours while jeopardizing my studies was something he was not willing to let me do. And he was right.\n\nMy husband was not so lucky. He still regrets not being able to play football when he was a child because he had to work.\n\nIn the Philippines there are approximately 3 million child labourers. Last month, the ILO teamed up with the National Child Labor Committee and other partners to organize an event with some 200 former child labourers. We wanted to offer them the chance to play football, to learn and to enjoy their childhood.\n\nI was there, and it was great to see their smiles as they got their football jerseys, shoes, balls, plus school supplies and other treats. Many individuals, companies and organizations donated their time and resources to make this day happen. Artists, singers and athletes came along to hold up the Red Card to Child Labour. Government, employers’ and workers’ organizations, along with ambassadors and heads of the United Nations in the Philippines were present as well. It was one big team working together against child labour.\n\nMany have joined the cause since then. This week, the international community is getting together in Brasilia for the III Global Conference on Child Labour. It will be a great opportunity to give a big push to the goal of eliminating the worst forms of child labour by 2016.\n\nAs the whistle blows again and my son’s match finishes, I cannot help but think that my family is part of a bigger team fighting to beat child labour. It’s a great feeling to have.\n\n4 thoughts on “A big team with a clear goal”"

"In her twenty five years in show business, singer-actress Aiza Seguerra shared that there were three turning points in her career: when she joined Eat Bulaga’s Little Miss Philippines (1987), when she released her hit single “Pagdating Ng Panahon” (2001), and when she realized that she really wanted to make it as a musician.\nAdmittedly, things might have turned out differently if she had grown taller or turned out to be the “beauty-queen material that people saw me grow up on TV expected me to be.” But the former child star said that she has come to terms with whatever frustrations or insecurities she might have had in the past.Hindi ako yung tipo ng tao na nagdwe-dwell sa past at sa frustrations. Unang-una, hindi ko inexpect na magiging artista ako. Hindi naman ako galing sa family ng mga artista, tapos until now nandito pa rin ako sa business. There's so much to be thankful for kaya hindi ko na iniisip yung mga bagay na hindi ko nagawa,” she said during the press con for her 25th anniversary concert, Bente Singko, held last Tuesday, September 25.\nAlthough she’s a newbie when it comes to songwriting, Aiza has come up with a song that actually topped the music charts, “Di Lang Ikaw” performed by Juris. “I haven’t done a lot. Siguro sa mga nasulat ko isa lang ang masasabi ko na gusto ko, yung kay Juris. I really can’t say na isa akong songwriter. Sa totoo lang starting pa lang ako. Ayoko ma-pressure na sumulat ng kanta. Gusto ko sumulat ako ‘pag may gusto akong sabihin, hindi para kumita. Ang trabaho ko naman talaga singing. Songwriting is more of on the side lang talaga,” she told Push.com.ph.\nAsked if there’s any song that could sum up her 25 years in the industry, Aiza revealed that it would have to be the mash up of “If I Could” and “Wind Beneath My Wings”. “Yung ‘If I Could/Wind Beneath My Wings’ kanta ko for my mom. Parang it’s about if she could, she wants to protect me. Pero hindi ganon ang buhay. Darating yung time na magtratrabaho ka on your own. And what’s good about my mom is that hinayaan niya ako, kahit may time na alam niyang pwede akong masaktan. But still alam ko siya yung nag-lift up sa akin.”\nAiza added that the song “Bituing Walang Ningning” is also meaningful to her because it reminds her to stay grounded in spite of what she has achieved in showbiz. “Naka-relate ako diyan kasi para sa akin, ‘pag nasa industriya ka, you get blinded by the lights, ika nga. Sometimes you forget the most important things. Parang nawawala ka sa realidad. Akala natin success is yung manalo ka ng mga awards. Of course it’s good if you win awards. But sometimes you forget that when you are loved, it means more than anything.”\nAnd speaking of love, Aiza said that she’ll be performing a duet of “If I Could/Wind Beneath My Wings” with former Protégé winner Krizza Neri in her concert at the Big Dome this Friday. Incidentally, the two have been romantically linked to each other ever since they worked together in the said singing competition. But when asked about the real score between them, Aiza refused to further talk about the issue. “Eto na lang, whatever I have with Krizza right now, we’re happy. Yun lang.” She was also deliberately being vague when asked if she’s currently in a relationship. “Ang puso ko ay malayang malaya. Hindi kailangan mabilanggo.”\nBente Singko: Aiza Seguerra’s silver anniversary concert on September 28 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum is a production of That’s Ntertainment Productions, Blackbird Music Creations, and line produced by MediaNation Inc.

"Author, historian gives overview of the sport and men who made history designing racing boats\n\nIn his new book, “Bonnie Brave Boat Rowers: The heroes, seers and songsters of the Tyne”, author Christopher Dodd examines the different aspects of rowing culture and discusses its impact in England during the 1800s and early 1900s.\n\nThe sport of rowing became popular during northeast England’s Industrial Revolution in the 1840s, creating a culture of professional sportsmanship, innovative design of racing boats and music hall songs that heralded oarsmen’s prowess on the water.\n\n“Bonnie Brave Boat Rowers” gives a history of England’s Newcastle Christmas Handicap and how it contributed to the rowing rivalry between the Tyne and Thames rivers. Dodd tells the story of Tynesiders who revolutionised the design and construction of racing shells and sought fame and fortune from the Tyne to the St. Lawrence.\n\nFilled with historical detail, “Bonnie Brave Boat Rowers” will appeal to readers interested in the evolution of rowing, the social history of the Industrial Revolution and the local history of the Tyne area. The book also provides a wealth of information about the development of boat design and manufacture and looks at the tensions that arose between professional and amateur rowers.\n\nChapter 1 – ‘The Scotswood Express’ covers backers and bookies and the murky world of cheating, bribery and equipment failure.\n\nChapter 2 – ‘The eye to see and the hand to fashion’ on the genius of design in boat building.\n\nChapter 3 – ‘Pulling clivor on the coaly river’ on the tyros of the Tyne and their fame in song and music hall.\n\nChristopher Dodd is a freelance journalist, editor, author and rowing historian. After 30 years at The Guardian newspaper, he co-founded the River Rowing Museum at Henley-on-Thames, where he is a historian and curator. His books include histories of Henley Regatta, the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race, London Rowing Club and World Rowing. He contributes to newspapers, magazines and blogs and is the founding editor of Britain’s Regatta magazine and the International Rowing Federation’s World Rowing. He is a board member of Friends of Rowing History. More information is available at www.doddsworld.org.",

"A compound microscope, like those used in a biology lab, uses two or more lenses to enlarge or magnify an object. In 1665, a scientist named Robert Hook used an early compound microscope to look at a cork slice and coined the term “cell” to describe the tissue. The continued development of more microscopes allowed scientists to see that cells were composed of many parts with many functions. The development of an electron microscope, which uses electromagnetic fields, allows objects to be magnified up to 500,000 times using beams of electrons instead of light. The transmission electron microscope (TEM) allows scientists to see structures inside of a cell. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) enables scientists to see a cell’s three-dimensional shape, which allows them to study a cell’s surface. A scanning probe microscope produces images by tracing the surface of a cell or structure with a probe.",
null,
"With the development of microscopes, scientists were able to observe and learn more about cells, creating a fundamental concept of biology. Cell theory was developed out of their conclusions. Cell theory has three main components. First, all living things are made of one or more cells. Secondly, cells are the basic unit of structure and function in all living things. Finally, all cells come from other cells.",

"After hacking into a private program for a while now, I found some nice bugs, mostly through recon and chaining one clue after another. In this blog post, I'll discuss the same as well as my approach to finding them. Since I've signed an NDA with them, all references to the project and company are redacted. For the sake of this blog, I am going to refer to the project as MeowCorp project and their primary domain as meowcorp.io.\n\nAfter running regular subdomain enumeration tools, I picked up some interesting subdomains. One of them was api.scan.meowcorp.io. While performing content discovery on this subdomain, I found git config file. Quickly I dumped the files from .git dir with GitTools but it was all static CSS, JS files that were of no use. When I was about to close the terminal tab, I noticed that the git repo belonged to a personal GitHub profile.\n\nThe company has its own GitHub org profile but the reference to a personal profile in prod API got my attention. That personal profile had only one public repo named \"redacted-tool\". They were also using GitHub actions for CI/CD pipelines so there were workflows-related files in .github/workflows. Inside the same directory, I found CICD.yml file. They mistakenly pushed their SSH credentials and they removed it too, but you know.. what happens in git, stays in git. Looking at the commit history, I was able to extract the host details and the SSH credentials.\n\nThe password for the redacted-user was not changed, so I was able to SSH into the box. After logging in to the box, I randomly entered \"sudo -l\" to check sudo rights and I was surprised to see (ALL:ALL) ALL output.",
null,
"Now, popping root shell is as easy as \"sudo su -\"\n\nRoot shell popped! I read some files from /root directory for proof of concept and immediately sent the report with all details. The GitHub profile was taken down and credentials were changed within ~1hr of sending the report.\n\nI checked MeowCorp's Github org profile, as well as each repo and users who contributed to them. redacted-user was one of them who pushed frequent commits to the MeowCorp's github repo so, I checked his GitHub profile for any references to MeowCorp. On one of the repo, I found MongoDB credentials hardcoded in a python script.\n\nThe credential was valid and I logged in to the database. The database was mostly filled with junk and random data so it was of no use. Since I had a new IP address, I performed a full port scan with nmap and it returned a bunch of open ports. Of all the open ports, I found port 2049 interesting which is used for Network File System (NFS). I used \"showmount\" utility to list the available shares of NFS and found that the \"/data/share\" of the remote host can be mounted.\n\nThe remote share \"/data/share\" can be mounted as:\n$ mount -t nfs 125.xx.xx.xx:/data/share /tmp/test/\nNow, I can view the files from my local /tmp/test directory as shown in the below screenshot.\n\nI checked all directories to see if I could find any sensitive information to escalate this issue further and found config.json file in the portainer directory. The config.json had base64 encoded credentials for dockerhub.\n\nI immediately went to hub.docker.com, supplied those credentials, and to my surprise, I was able to log in to it. No MFA yayyy!! 🎉",
null,
"I got full access to a user's DockerHub account and I could read/write/delete private/public images or delete everything and disrupt the supply chain.\n\nUtilizing my 1337 shodan recon skillz, I found an asset belonging to meowcorp - 157.xx.xx.xx\nI ran a full port scan on the IP and discovered a number of open ports that were mostly running web apps and seemed like a staging environment.\nI also have been keeping notes of passwords found from github, dehashed, and other publicly available data. Furthermore, I also added some easy to guess passwords like passwords from seclists, meowcorp123, meowcorp2020, meowcorp2021, meowcorp2022, Fname123, fname.lastname123 and so on.\nUsing the above-mentioned password wordlist, I sprayed for SSH, postgresql, redis, mysql, etc. Luckily, I got a hit for MySQL as root user and the password was meowcorp2021 🤦♂️",
null,
"I was able to log in to the database as root user and there was a non-default database named \"redacted-database\". I was still thinking it was a staging environment with test data only but when I checked the table \"emailVerification\", I saw entries with recent dates. The table had information like email address, user id, and verification code to verify the email address.\nThere were other tables too which gave a hint that the database is used for another project of MeowCorp - doggocorp.io. To verify it is indeed a prod database, I registered an account in doggocorp.io, and the verification code was sent to email..",
null,
".. and when I checked the table, another entry was made with the same verification code and my email address.\n\nNow it was confirmed that I could indeed access the production database and modify the user details too.\n\nMeowCorp has another project named \"redacted-project\". It is related to AI training, managing datasets, community building, etc. In the datasets section, there was a feature to import images from external links. When an image link like (https://example[.]com/image.jpg) was supplied, the image would be fetched and saved in the google bucket \"meowcorpstudio\". So, instead of an image link, I tried to hit localhost and it was successful. I was curious what other protocols were allowed and tried file protocol to read local files and it also worked.",
null,
"Upon reading passwd and hosts file, it was confirmed that the webapp was running inside a docker container. Since there was no way to list files on the server, it was very hard to guess the files.\nProc files to the rescue!\nThe image fetcher was not consistent and sometimes it errored out and didn't save binary files to the bucket. To verify it could fetch files from /proc directory, I fetched /proc/1/cmdline and cmdline was saved to the bucket. It was available at https://storage.googleapis.com/meowcorpstudio/prod/project_000/cmdline.\nProcess number 1 was the same process that was running the web application. The content of cmdline was:\n/usr/bin/python3 label_studio/manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8080\nI checked the env variables from /proc/1/environ and found Postgres database credentials and a variable named GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS which pointed to a json file with secrets - /usr/src/app/keys/gcp.json.\ngcp.json file had project_id, client_id, private_key, client_email, etc. which were enough to authenticate to Google Cloud. I crafted another json file to match the format to authenticate with gcloud cli and finally I was able to list instances and buckets.\n\nListing the contents of the bucket meowcorpstudio:\n\nThe 2 instances didn't have any relation to prod environment and their status was also terminated. But the bucket was their primary one which was used for storing static files (CSS, JS, images), user-uploaded files, etc. An attacker could have modified the js file so that they could silently exfiltrate user data, steal sessions, delete users' files, deface the website, replace logo/images, and so on.\n\nIt was a quite fun experience to hack into meowcorp as well as reporting and communication part. I reported total 7 bugs (4 mentioned above, 3 were low-hanging API bugs), and most of them were fixed within ~3 hrs of reporting. They were also okay with me going a step ahead to prove the impact which I loved the most about hacking on this program. Despite the fact that the bounties were insignificant in comparison to the potential damage, I am glad that I found a program that I really enjoyed hacking for months, found critical vulnerabilities when I was not in a good state, and gave me a good confidence boost.\nThank you for making it to the end.

"There is much more to imbibing in Pattaya than the (now fallacious) image of merely beer swilling. Over the past decade, Pattaya’s residents have shown an increasing interest in the grape, rather than hops, with the president of the Royal Cliff Wine Club, Ranjith Chandrasiri, being one of the leaders in this movement.\n\nLast week, Pattaya had two distinct functions dedicated to Tuscany wines with a wine dinner held at Dicey Reilly’s Irish Pub and a wine tasting held at the Royal Cliff Beach Resort. Both events were supported by ItalThai, with Channel Manager Anuchit Saeng-on present on both evenings.",
null,
"The Tuscany wines themselves were represented by Marco Bacci, the owner of three Tuscany vineyards, and as passionate an Italian as only Italians can be. Once started on his favorite subject (his wines), there appeared to be no stopping the enthusiasm he showed for his product.\n\nThe dinner at Dicey Reilly’s was a relaxed affair, but with the dress shirts of the serving staff and elegant table settings the ‘pub’ atmosphere gave way to more of an up-market restaurant venue, and the guests were treated to a four course dinner and five Tuscany wines, with Marco Bacci floating around the tables personally explaining his wines to the diners.\n\nThe Dicey Reilly’s kitchen and the cellar worked in harmony, presenting courses which complemented each other very well, and for me, the risotto with champignons, Parmesan cheese and pesto with the Castello di Bossi Chianti Classico Riserve Berardo DOCG were the dishes and wine of the night, but as always, wine appreciation is a very personal matter. The Castello di Bossi Vin Santo Laurentino dessert wine came a very close second, and was one of Marco’s wines to score 96 points from celebrated wine judge Robert Parker. (I also noted that executive chef Luis Zamora has returned to the Marriott and Dicey Reilly’s after a ‘sabbatical’ in the Maldives, so we may be getting such culinary events more regularly in future.)\n\nThe following evening at the Royal Cliff Beach Resort was a much more formal affair, with a wine tasting of the same Tuscan wines for the members of the Royal Cliff Wine Club, but this time it was with group education from Marco Bacci, but with the same intense enthusiasm.",
null,
"Marco described his three vineyards, Castello di Bossi, Renieri and Terre di Talamo, and how he became involved with winemaking after a lifetime of being in the rag trade. He bought the first one, the Castello di Bossi as a real estate venture, but the wine heritage of the 1000 year old castle got to him and he decided to continue the tradition of making wine there.\n\nOver the next decade he deserted the clothing industry to then purchase the Renieri and Terre di Talamo and over the next 20 years became a walking text book on Italian viticulture and Tuscan in particular.",
null,
"He lectured the Wine Club members on the different appellations used such as IGT and DOCG and how these classifications are rigidly maintained. His vineyards use no fertilizers, herbicides or irrigation. The quality of the grapes depend entirely on the ‘terroir’ and in bad years, the wine is sold off in bulk, while in good years the grapes are unhurriedly brought to the high standards as expected in Old World winemaking. It was obvious that Marco did not agree with the New World methods of wine production!\n\nHe described the areas in which his vines were grown, and how the soil can be so different (sometimes volcanic), even though they can be less than 40 km from each other in some cases. His number one grape is the San Giovese, a grape which is identifiable with the Tuscany region.\n\nA spirited Q&A session brought forth much more from the encyclopedic Marco, and even if not all the wines were to my taste, (but the Castello di Bossi Chianti Classico Riserve Berardo DOCG was excellent) I left a lot wiser."

"Butterflies, Norway and Pebble Grey all contribute to a record year",
null,
"Spring is just around the corner and gardens are on the cusp of greatness but before 2018 gets into full swing, let’s take a moment to reflect on last year.\n\nOur sales in 2017 were 20% more than in the previous year, the highest in Griffin Glasshouses’ history, and one of the key factors behind this growth has been opening up new export markets for our products.\n\nWith sales in Norway, Sweden, France, Italy and USA Griffin Glasshouses is truly an international brand, something that has already been expanded in 2018. Overall, the Victorian styled products have continued to prove popular although traditional designs continue to sell well. One new feature for last year was the launch of the new fold-away Victorian styled cast-aluminium benches.\n\nThe five National Garden Scheme greenhouses continued to be very popular securing sales both in the home market and overseas. In September, we were delighted to present the NGS with a cheque for £11,204 as a percentage of sales of NGS glasshouses. This brings the total amount of money that we have donated to the charity to more than £33,000 since our support first started in 2012.\n\nAnother feature that came to light last year is the move away from white as the most popular colour for greenhouses. Until around 2004 almost everything we produced was painted white but customers have started to request them in a wider range of colours including black, blue, pistachio, brown and olive green. The current favourite colour is Pebble Grey.\n\nIn April, Griffin sponsored the Association of Professional Landscapers Awards for the first time. Our category was Designer of the Year which I presented to Aralia Garden Design at a special ceremony at The Brewery in London.\n\nUnusual uses of Griffin’s glasshouses continued last year, with a new installation the Cumberland House Natural History Museum in Portsmouth. Rather than housing plants and shrubs, this particular structure is now home to hundreds of tropical butterflies. They include Swallowtails, Morphos, Caligos and Longwings. It was opened to the public in August.\n\n2018 is shaping up to be a great year for us here at Griffin Glasshouses. Later this year, we’ll have an exciting announcement to make and details will be released about the expansion of our NGS greenhouses range, with the first public debut expected to be at the Chelsea Flower Show. We hope to see you there!",

"My mom called me a couple of hours ago when I was waiting for Raf at the dentist office. She called to ask me if I could make her something out of her dog, Squeaker’s, fur. I said, “Yes, but why? What happened?” She told me that they had to put her to sleep. She was on her way home from the vet’s office when she called.\n\nI had just seen her yesterday morning when I went over to visit. She was her usual, sweet self. She was happy to see me and brought her favorite chew toy up to me, wagging her tail. As I usually do I petted and hugged her and just gave her some love. I love my mom’s dogs and look forward to seeing them when I go over there.\n\nI guess a little while after I left they couldn’t find her. So they looked around the house and found her in the basement. Something was wrong with her leg and, upon closer inspection, they noticed it was broken. They took her to the vet this morning where the vet determined that the reason why her bone had broken so easily was because there was a tumor in her leg which made the bone really soft. The only thing the vet could do was amputate the leg. My mom couldn’t bear that for Squeaker so she had her put to sleep. She had the vet shave off some fur from her back so that I could spin it into yarn and make something with it.\n\nI’m so glad I went over there yesterday so I could see her one last time. She was the sweetest dog in the world and I’m going to miss her.",

"A grand jury has indicted Lafayette City Marshal Brian Pope on seven additional charges of malfeasance in office for taking money without legal authority to do so.\n\nA warrant has been issued for his arrest. Bond is set at $5,000 for each count.\n\nPope is scheduled for trial Sept. 24 on prior unresolved felony charges, including five counts of malfeasance in office and two perjury charges.\n\nThe latest felony charges date back to Jan. 31\n\nIn Thursday's indictment, the seven acts of felony malfeasance are alleged to have occurred between Jan. 31 and July 31, according to the indictment released by District Attorney Keith Stutes' office Thursday.\n\nThe latest charges may be linked to an attorney general opinion\n\nThe grand jury indictment refers to Louisiana Revised Statute 13:1883, which sets the minimum salary for the Lafayette city marshal at $5,400.\n\nThe statute further allows most city marshals in Louisiana to retain other fees, but specifically prohibits the marshals in Lafayette and Shreveport from keeping those fees.\n\nPope, like his predecessor Earl \"Nickey\" Picard, collects fees for services his deputies perform, such as serving subpoenas and eviction notices. But Pope personally has been keeping much of that money to supplement his income, bringing it at one time to more than $200,000 a year.\n\nAssistant Attorney General Alexander Reinboth, in an opinion issued in January at Stutes' request, said the City Marshal's Office can collect those fees, but the money should be placed in an account to be used for the Marshal's Office, not for Pope's salary.\n\nPope, Thursday afternoon, referred The Daily Advertiser to his attorney for comment.",

Garber won.\n\nA complaint was filed with the District Attorney's Office. A grand jury in November 2016 indicted Pope, alleging he committed malfeasance.\n\nAmong the allegations are that his employees, on taxpayers' time, wrote a letter for Pope's political campaign; used his office and personnel for the Oct. 7, 2015, press conference to campaign against Garber and used public funds to pay an attorney working to unseal Garber's divorce records.\n\nThe November 2016 indictment also alleges Pope committed perjury while under oath Dec. 28, 2015, at a sworn deposition in The Independent's civil case.\n\nPope is on probation ... again"

"There’s a whole heap of nostalgia in the early motorcycles of our forefather’s time. All varieties of bikers may share the same sentiment, as what was once “the way” to build machines is different now. High tech industrial utility replaces artisanship as Peter Egan in Leanings 2 has so eloquently acknowledged.\n\nWe think those who truly appreciate the aura around two wheels and what it represents find a kind of peace with the world in the prideful craftsmanship and aesthetic originality of the now wisdom soaked motorcycles of our past. We follow the credence that thou shalt honor their elders as we discover the full picture and gain real understanding in simply just the presence of these mere mortals. For the fortunate few who have been able to ride let alone own the Wise Ones an – even deeper bond with all that is truth is solidified. Enlightenment.",

We’re able to create, and post this very material while 35,000 feet over the South Pacific chasing the sun.

"Hardspace: Shipbreaker is one of those simulator games that presents players with a fairly mundane job and turns out to be surprisingly engaging. The difference is this one is set in space, and you're scrapping derelict spaceships in zero gravity. The game was announced for PS5 recently, and publisher Focus Entertainment has released the above video to get us all acquainted.\n\nYou'll have various tools at your disposal to break down the remains of abandoned ships, but there's a little more to the game than just that. You'll be able to slowly upgrade your character and equipment, as well as follow along with a narrative that leans into \"human drama, hard sci-fi, and workers' rights\".\n\nThe game drifts onto PS5 on 20th September, so it's just a week away. Are you planning a shift in Hardspace: Shipbreaker? Tell us in the comments section below.\n\nAlways liked the look of this. I think I'm starting to really hit that 'dad game' demographic. Scary but true.\n\n@TeapotBuddha not necessarily. This game appeals to me because it seems like a perfect podcast game, so you can tell yourself that instead haha\n\n@ShadowofSparta funny you should say that actually, because power wash simulator and snowrunner, which I thought of as dad games and really enjoy, are also perfect podcast/audiobook games for me.\n\nI think you're on to something here 😅",

"Other than flex scheduling, the NFL schedules the game times for the first 16 weeks months before the start of the season. For Week 17, the NFL has to change up the schedule after the rest of the games have been played. We knew the matchups in Week 17 and the NFL has it set that everyone plays another team in their division in the final week but game times aren’t decided until the week before. This is so teams who are competing for a division title or a playoff spot play at the same time so a team doesn’t get an advantage by knowing in advance what the other team did that day.\n\nThat’s what makes this situation a bit strange. This year, there are two open playoff spots remaining. One of them is the NFC East division where either the Philadelphia Eagles or Dallas Cowboys will get that spot. That’s pretty straightforward, the Eagles will advance unless the Cowboys win and the Eagles lose. And for that scenario, both teams have different opponents but play at the same time.\n\nThe other open playoff spot is the sixth seed in the AFC. The Tennessee Titans, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Oakland Raiders remain in contention and the Titans are the current leaders due to having the “strength of victory” tiebreaker over the Steelers. All three teams play in the 4:00 et time slot so neither will be aware of what the other two teams are doing. But there’s one game scheduled at 1:00 et that may influence how the Titans fare and may help them get that playoff spot.\n\nThe NFL has scheduled the LA Chargers-Kansas City Chiefs game at 1:00 et. This is important because even though the Chiefs have already clinched the AFC West, they remain in a battle for the third seed against the Houston Texans. If the Chiefs lose and the Texans win, the Texans get the third seed.\n\nThe Texans play at 4:00 et against the Titans. How this helps the Titans is that if the Chiefs win in the early game, the Texans will know they are the fourth seed and will be more likely to bench their starters. The Titans, who have to win to remain in control of their own destiny, suddenly have an easier opponent based on what happened that day. If the Chiefs had played at the same time as the Texans, the Texans wouldn’t know the outcome of the Chiefs game and would have to play their starters. In a roundabout way, it also hurts the Buffalo Bills because they may now be playing a more-rested Texans team in the playoffs.\n\nOne could argue that this situation isn’t a big deal. The Steelers are going to be playing a bunch of Baltimore Ravens backups because the Ravens already clinched home field advantage throughout the playoffs. Yes, the Steelers will be facing an easier team and that may help them win their game but that situation is different in that the game was scheduled before the start of the season and the Steelers simply got lucky that the Ravens got their business done before Week 17 to be able to bench their players.\n\nThe Chiefs’ scheduling decision was made after all the other games from the first 16 weeks were over and the NFL was aware of the situation. I honestly don’t believe that the NFL is trying to manipulate the schedule to keep the Steelers and Raiders out, but it does invite that belief among the left out fanbases.\n\nMaybe there was a non-competition reason to have the Chargers and Chiefs play at 1:00 et. On the CBS Week 17 schedule, it lists three early games and four late games. One of those late games is the Indianapolis Colts vs. Jacksonville Jaguars, a matchup that has no playoff implications.\n\nHere are THE NFL ON CBS Announcer Teams for Week 17 on Sunday, December 29 pic.twitter.com/N5cKp287mY\n\nSurely, Colts-Jaguars could have been switched out for Chargers-Chiefs. Unless CBS wanted to have Chargers-Chiefs early for Pacific and Mountain Time Zone viewers and/or wanted to avoid splitting the LA market with the 4:00 et Rams game on Fox, there isn’t a reason to schedule the games like this.\n\nRegardless of what happens, it’s not like the Titans deserve an asterisk if they make the playoffs due to the Chiefs winning. It’s a 16-game season and the Steelers and Raiders are fully aware that if they had just been a little bit better, they wouldn’t be in this situation. The Steelers are currently on a two game losing streak (even losing to the Jets) while the Raiders lost four straight (including to the Titans) before winning last week. Those two teams get a win at any point, this is a non-issue. So if it comes down to it that the Texans benched their starters because they knew the Chiefs won and that helped the Titans win, yeah the Titans would’ve gotten some help due to Week 17 scheduling but they would still deserve their playoff spot."

Each time she says that, I think that is Covid.\n\n\"We were all ready to go then that happened.\n\n\"Again we got all ready to go and the threat of us having to cancel was again looming on the horizon, but fortunately it hasn’t happened.\"\n\nThe show is able to go on because the Regent Theatre upgraded the production from the Clarkson Studio to the main stage so it could meet the requirements of social distancing under Level 2.\n\n\"If you are not involved in musical theatre then it is very, very difficult, you’d never imagine you’d be standing on the Regent Theatre stage.

PHOTO: SUPPLIED\nIt will also be the first chance for an adult audience to see local theatre in the Regent since lockdown happened. Only the Dr Seuss children’s show and Film Festival films have been shown since then.\n\nFor Wells, the challenges and complexities of Covid-19 that everyone has experienced have produced a more intense result in rehearsals.\n\n\"I know people say you’ve kicked it up a gear but it really felt like this was really low gear, really grunty, really emotional within themselves, which is where the beauty comes out.\"\n\nDear Boobs, the stage show, is based on the book of the same name which is a collection of 100 letters and images from breast cancer survivors from around the world.\n\nThe 2018 book, compiled by breast cancer survivor Emily Searle, came about after she wrote a letter to her breasts before undergoing mastectomy surgery.\n\nWells saw the potential in the book and developed it into a stage show, featuring six core performers telling the stories of the women in the book.\n\nA lot of the stories talk about the reaction of friends, family and spouses to a diagnosis as well as reflecting on their experiences.\n\n\"We were able to go off-script quickly. Everyone is incredibly familiar with their lines - they’ve been living these stories for a long time now.\"\n\nWith the extra time Covid has given them Wells has looked at other ways to make the play more accessible.\n\nWatching the 1pm televised Covid briefings gave her the idea of seeing if they could introduce New Zealand Sign Language to the production and she was able to secure an interpreter for the Sunday matinee.\n\n\"I was inspired, in a way. I thought there is an awful lot of our population that miss out on these sort of things.\"\n\nShe is also looking at ways to incorporate te reo Maori so they can pay respect to all three languages of New Zealand.\n\n\"While most of these stories are New Zealand women’s stories, there is not an awful lot of te reo Maori woven into them.\"\n\nWells is first to admit it has been a hard road to get to this point because of the uncertainty.\n\n\"If I had it my way, everything would be going exactly per the schedule. We’d all know what is happening. There is just so much uncertainty in the world and in the city. It’s been a good learning experience for me.\"\n\nHaving the show in the Regent also meant challenges to ensure the feeling of intimacy needed for the work continued in the bigger space.\n\n\"We still want that emotional impact but the audience will still be a nice size, so we shouldn’t lose that intimacy.\"\n\nSupport from the show’s sponsors and grants agencies through it all has helped immensely, allowing the show to continue.\n\n\"It shows no matter what Covid throws at us, the community will band together and we’ll get this on stage.\""

"Apple isn't normally recognized for participating in Black Friday, however the tech giants' merchandise can nonetheless be discovered on supply - together with the model new iPhone 11 from £29 a month.\n\nIf you don't already have an Apple Music subscription this Black Friday deal also includes a three-month subscription (new subscribers only), so you're getting a $30 discount on an additional service at the same time. This Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we're seeing an average of $10 off the 4K model for the 32GB storage capacity.\n\nIf you've been holding out or waiting to buy the Apple Watch until an epic sale finally came your way, get excited - your chance to save is finally here.

That price is for the 32GB WiFi version but you can get the 128GB version for US$329, which is still US$100 off the MSRP of US$429.

You can get a $25 gift card when you purchase AirPods, Apple TV, or an Apple Watch Series 3, a $100 gift card when you purchase an 11-inch or 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and a $200 gift card when you purchase a MacBook Pro or an iMac.

"I’m the first to tell you that I know nothing about using a tool as powerful as The Gimp. I get Layers, but after that, there is a realm of madness that I have not yet reached.\n\nI have learned a cool trick tonight. It’s building on a trick I learned a couple of weeks ago. It uses layers and the overlay method. Lifehacker pointed me to digital Photography School, and I learned the overlay Gaussian Blur method. I know use this a lot.\n\nBut once I figured out layers, I figured that I could really start stacking them up. As a result of my fiddling, I stumbled onto a really cool way to make those pictures leap at you.\n\nLet’s start with a picture of the USB hub that sits next to me.",

"By Scott Steinberg | Special to Page 2\n\nScott Steinberg is the author of \"The Modern Parent's Guide,\" a technology-themed parenting series, which will be free to download at www.parentsguidebooks.com/ when it is released March 13. This is an excerpt from the section of the book, titled \"Everything I know about parenting, I learned from 'Madden NFL.'\"\n\nLike countless sports fans worldwide, I boast a secret superhuman power, i.e. the Pavlovian ability to suddenly and inexplicably tune out reality when the game -- real, video or otherwise -- comes on. But as the author of \"The Modern Parent's Guide\" high-tech parenting series, I also get to exhibit these Herculean talents five times more often than the average male.\n\nStill, as frequently explained to angry wife and upset kid (note: some names have been changed to protect the innocent), there are benefits to being \"bad daddy,\" as the kiddo affectionately refers to my secret alter-ago. Case in point: The regular opportunity to study at the feet of the world's greatest father figure, John Madden, by way of \"Madden NFL,\" his signature football game. Say what you will about Drs. Oz and Phil, or famed philosophers (philanderers?) like Benjamin Franklin. Well-publicized fear of planes aside, as much time as contemporary Dads have spent worshipping at his altar, trust me: The former NFL coach and broadcast legend has nonetheless taught more generations to fly.",
null,
"Passing his lessons down to legions of virtual football-loving pops through plastic cartridges, CDs, DVDs and Blu-ray discs, don't be fooled by the title's increasingly glitzy graphics or fancy suite of multiplayer options. At its core lie the following life lessons, which every current or prospective parent can take to heart, or the living room big-screen, as the mood strikes.\n\nSo much for maturity … Grown man or no, after landing a last-minute Hail Mary on an opponent, it's hard to resist talking smack, even if means watching your little precious' face crumble. But know this, champ: Like the stale jock strap that Junior inevitably won't resist telling you to suck right back when he affects a turnaround, the grapes of wrath are painfully sour. So regardless of how slick your moves are, remember to put a sock in it, or risk your eight year-old claiming revenge by suddenly scoring a 90-yard sprint to win the game on a botched conversion. Hey, you know what they say: On the field, simulated or otherwise, everyone's a winner -- except, perhaps, the father of the kid who taught your kid to speak in four-letter words and sassy one-liners.\n\nA Real Man Leads by Example\n\nOr at least that's what he tells himself when teammates ignore the game plan in favor of mindlessly rubbing up against rivals or idly sitting around staring at the 3D-rendered grass. Lesson learned: Sometimes, you've just got to go for it -- doubly so when the jackasses guarding your flank decide it's a good idea to play fast and loose, suddenly transforming long bombs into desperate running plays. As experience with the title's haphazard artificial intelligences teaches, relying on others is often necessary, but not an ideal solution. At some point, every man must get in touch with his inner wide receiver, and take control of the proverbial wheel. Whether you ultimately choose to meet impending challenges head on, or learn from failures and transform crushing defeat into a \"Dancing with the Stars\" cameo-level career turnaround, well … that's your call.\n\nYou Can't Fake Your Way Through Life\n\nHell, until you perfect your poker face, or the Wii U ships (letting you potentially choose plays on a second screen), chances are, you can barely even do it through the first quarter. Sometimes, no matter the trials that lie ahead, you've just got to man up, and push through the pain, earning turf yard by excruciating yard as 300-pound linebackers fly headfirst at your kneecaps. Don't get me wrong: Like any street-savvy grade-schooler knows, cheaters can prosper once in a while, slipping the odd faux move through. But cry wolf too many times, and like your poor QB, you'll either be forced to retreat in shame, hounded off the field, or -- worse -- run straight into the waiting stiff-arm. Owie.\n\nWhy doesn't Big John grace the cover of his own game anymore? Could be the ample cash, present off-duty status or fact kids don't generally idolize portly old men. (Or, for that matter, the so-called \"Madden Curse,\" even more frightening to those who've been carrying an AARP card since Reagan was president.) But after more than 25 games, nearly as many years and an NFL career so decorated it deserves its own HGTV special, you've got to admire a guy who knows when to take a step back. Not only do his generosity and humility (it's not everyone who'll bow out to let Cris Collinsworth, Tom Hammond or Gus Johnson handle in-game broadcast duties while they cash the royalty check) speak for themselves. Having since retired to spend more time with his family, it's inspired millions to do the same from virtual stardom nightly … after just \"one more\" game, natch."

"The time for rhetoric is over: We need safe and legal routes now",
null,
"Sleeping on the floor, forced to go to the toilet with the door open, environments rife with disease. These are not the conditions facing sufferers in a faraway land. They are the conditions facing asylum seekers in Manston, Kent. Forced to flee their homelands and seeking salvation they are instead branded ‘invaders’ by our home secretary and herded like cattle into processing centres operating at four times their capacity for three times longer than intended. Divisive language and unworkable headline-grabbing policies have provoked crisis in our asylum system for far too long – the time to provide safe and legal routes to applicants is long overdue.\n\nSuccessive governments and home secretaries have struggled to grapple with various different waves of asylum seekers over the years and it is of course true that they are generally driven by global events outside of our control. What makes this one different is the manner in which it has been amplified by years of dangerous populist rhetoric, incompetence and cruel policy decisions.\n\nThis rhetoric first began to hit the mainstream of British politics in the lead-up to the 2016 Brexit referendum, fuelled initially by the rise of Farage’s UKIP and then taken on by the right of the Tory party that promised a split from the EU as a chance to take back control. Like many elements of the Leave campaign, the reality has been very different.\n\nIn the year ending June 2021, some 573 000 people immigrated to the UK, an increase of nearly 100 000 on the year before. The number of people crossing the channel this year is already estimated to be 40 000, up from 8 404 in 2020 and just 434 in 2018. The true result of separating from the EU has been an even greater loss of control. Whilst within the bloc, the UK at least technically had the right to send migrants back to their first safe country of arrival under the Dublin Agreement – now not even that option remains.\n\nThe problem is of course far deeper than Brexit. Initially, migration is caused by crises abroad. Considering this, the decision of the Johnson government in 2021 to cut foreign aid by £4 billion from 0.7% of GDP to 0.5% seems even more nonsensical. Not only are there basic moral issues with choosing cuts that left the government ‘with blood on their hands’ according to the Global Justice group. It is also completely non-sensical given the seemingly endless struggle of governments to get immigration ‘under control’.\n\nAs well as providing less support to those living under unstable environments abroad, the chaotic cabinets of our own in recent times have left the UK completely unable to cope on an administrative level. There have been five different home secretaries in office in the last year. The result? Inevitable mismatches in policy direction and U-turns. Grant Shapps today told Sky News that he was warned when in the job for just four days that the Manston site was ‘at risk of becoming illegal’ by government lawyers. Suella Braverman, both his predecessor and successor, has refused to acknowledge any such comments. Chopping and changing of policy and personnel, from crackdowns on lorry crossings to the illegal and unworkable Rwanda policy, have left civil servants in a perpetual state of disorder as they try to get their heads around what is asked of them.\n\nAnd through all of this it is the refugees themselves who are vilified. Politicians continue to play into the narrative that they are the ones in the wrong, mislabelling asylum-seekers as ‘illegal’ or fuelled by ‘economic motives’. Of course, there will always be some who come to our country in hope of higher wages and better public services but statistics show the true reality: almost everyone who flees their homeland does so for a reason.\n\nLast year, more than 81% of applications were successful, even after the long and costly waits that almost all applicants face. Among certain demographics that number is staggeringly high, with 99% of Syrians and 97% of Eritreans admitted at first application. At the end of 2021 though, there were 81,978 cases (relating to 100,564 people) awaiting an initial decision, 60% higher than the previous year. The number of cases awaiting an initial decision has shown an overall increase in the last ten years, and more rapidly since 2018, when there were 27,256 cases awaiting an initial decision at the end of that year. Despite the fact that the vast majority of these cases are eventually approved, systemic inefficiency at multiple levels is leaving hundreds of thousands of people unable to work and costing the taxpayer millions.\n\nThere’s no denying that this problem is complex with no easy solution. There is however one thing that could and absolutely should be being done already to make the situation far better for all parties. That solution is the setting up of safe and legal routes for asylum applications abroad. That way, instead of driving thousands of desperately vulnerable people into the hands of people smugglers at the channel, applicants would have a genuinely safe way to make their case without risking their lives.\n\nThis approach is far from unprecedented. The Russian invasion of Ukraine saw the government set up processing centres in France and 125 900 successful applications as a result. Similar nationality-specific schemes are in place for Afghan nationals and people in Hong Kong. Seeking asylum is not illegal, countries are obliged to offer it under international law, but for the vast majority of people there is still no legal way for them to make an application to the UK government.\n\nEstablishing these routes and processes wouldn’t be easy and is no quick fix. The system undoubtedly needs an overhaul at almost every level but it is without a doubt the most logical step for everyone involved. Above all though, the way to improve the situation is to put a stop to the kind of dangerous and hate-fuelling rhetoric that leads to terrorist attacks such as the one at Dover last week. Instead, every decision should be taken with compassion at its heart."

"Outside of the Veneto region, say Valpolicella and everyone thinks of Amarone. But the traditional red of the area is an everyday wine, to be enjoyed without any problem.\n\nThe planetary success of Amarone della Valpolicella is well known, but among the wines produced in these valleys few kilometers north from Verona we can find not only the great red wine for aging, but also the \"simple\" Valpolicella, as well as Ripasso (which is a production technique) and Recioto della Valpolicella, a sweet wine.\n\nThey are all different red wines, mainly made of Corvina and Corvinone grapes, with the addition of other autochthonous grapes such as Rondinella, Molinara, Oseleta. If they come from the more restricted area provided for by the disciplinary they can bear the name of Classico.\n\nThe area of production is the entire foothills of the province of Verona from Lake Garda almost to the border with the province of Vicenza, consisting of a series of valleys and hills that enter the plain in the shape of a hand. Thanks to the protection of the Lessini Mountains to the north, the proximity of Lake Garda and the southern exposure of the hills and valley floors, the climate in which the Valpolicella vines grow is generally mild and not too rainy.\n\nThe first producer, Rubinelli Vajol, is located in the center of the classic Valpolicella. Vajol is the final and entirely south-facing basin of the ridge that divides the two central valleys of Valpolicella Classica, that of Fumane and that of Marano. The hilly landscape, sprinkled with native vines, designed by the marogne and dotted with olive, almond and cherry trees, surrounds the old rural house in Corte Sant'Anna and represents the quintessential beauty of the entire Valpolicella. It is the three partners Alberto Rubinelli, Renzo Rubinelli and Nicola Scienza who run the vineyards and manage the winery.",

"Brigaldara winery is located in San Pietro in Cariano, in the heart of Valpolicella, in Vallata di Marano, one of the four valleys which make up the classic area of this territory. Owned by Cesari family, it has one hundred and twenty hectares, of which forty-seven are vineyards, distributed in three different areas: Valpolicella Classica, Valpantena and Valpolicella Orientale. At the apex of the production is Amarone, in particular the Riserva, which is also accompanied by the production of oil and truffle.\n\nCosta Arènte is, in order of time, the last winery to have entered the orbit of Genagricola, the agri-food company owned by Generali Italia. It is located in the Grezzana valley, in Valpantena, on a sort of promontory at about 200 meters of altitude. It offers very reliable wines and, in their genre, with a good quality/price ratio, as it is in the group's style.",

"The Armani family's history of viticulture began in the Adige Valley in 1607. Today, Albino Armani continues to uphold in his wineries the values of the wine he wants: unique, ethical, transparent, territorial, sustainable and elemental. Respect for the territory and research into indigenous grapes are the cornerstones of the family's approach to winemaking. Here tradition and research are combined. The family produces wine between Veneto, Friuli Venezia Giulia and Trentino.",

"Getting photographs of the endangered cheetah in the wild is not easy but not impossible either.\n\nThis beautiful spotted cat has been on the endangered species list since the 1960's. The main reasons for its threatened status are:\n\nConservation of the Endangered Cheetah\n\nFortunately a number of projects/centres have been established to protect and also breed the fastest land animal. In South Africa alone, there are at least three:\n\nThese centres play an important role in the education of people about endangered cheetah as well as the protection of the species. They have to be careful with their work to ensure interbreeding doesn’t take place.\n\nAnother fundamental organization is the CCF (Cheetah Conservation Fund), established in 1990 in Namibia. Its mission is to \"secure habitats for the long-term survival of free-ranging cheetah and their ecosystems through multi-disciplined and integrated programmes of conservation, research and education\".\n\nThanks to the good work that’s been done, the cheetah’s status is now “vulnerable” (better than “endangered cheetah”). If serious conservation efforts continue, the chances of cheetah extinction will become smaller and smaller.\n\nIt’s important to protect predators like the cheetah, as without it the natural ecology will be disturbed and an imbalance (too many antelope, leading to overgrazing) in nature will occur."

"The horrific twin truck bomb blast in Mogadishu, which killed more than 300 people, was the worst terrorist attack the city has witnessed in recent years.\n\nAlmost everyone in the city knows someone who was killed or injured in the blast.\n\nTraumatised residents have been standing in long lines to donate blood while volunteers are still searching for survivors and those who are missing.\n\nAl-Shabaab has yet to claim responsibility for this attack, perhaps because, as one resident told me, it probably missed its intended target, which some sources say could have been the new Turkish military base or government offices.\n\nI was sad to learn that the Safari Hotel near the busy K-5 junction, where I spent a few nights on my first visit to Mogadishu in 2011, has almost been levelled.\n\nThis hotel, a favourite meeting point for residents, was one of the few places in Mogadishu that one could enjoy a cappuccino and where a Wi-Fi network ensured that guests could access the Internet.\n\nThe restaurant in the hotel had some of the best fish and spaghetti I have ever tasted.\n\nAt that time, I didn’t dare to wander around the city on my own so an aid worker lent me his car and driver, who sat behind the wheel with an AK-47 firmly wrapped around his shoulder.\n\nWe drove around bullet-ridden shells of once-magnificent buildings that used to house government offices, cinemas, hotels and mosques and the former parliament building, which has been reduced to a stump.\n\nYet there seemed to be a desire among the residents to reclaim a sense of normalcy.\n\nI saw boys playing football in crumbling stadiums and women selling goods in “shops” that had no roofs or doors.\n\nIn the evening, men would sit outside tea shops chewing khat as if the war that has destroyed their city had happened elsewhere.\n\nMany told me that were it not for the war, Mogadishu would be one of the best cities in the world.\n\nIn its heyday, this “White Pearl of the Indian Ocean” was an orderly and beautiful city with pretty boulevards, scenic beachfronts and iconic architecture with Omani, Italian and Islamic influences.\n\nBefore and during the Siad Barre years, residents would go to the cinema to watch a movie and even listen to live jazz in a club.\n\nAs the Somali writer Nurrudin Farah has often lamented, this cosmopolitanism was lost when Somalia plunged into civil war in 1991, and when warlords took control of the city.\n\nNot only were buildings and infrastructure destroyed, but with the emergence of Al-Shabaab and other fundamentalist forces, a way of life disappeared.\n\nThe people of Mogadishu have in recent years tried to rebuild their city but their efforts are continuously hampered by terrorist bombings.\n\nFor a while it seemed that Amisom forces had vanquished the terrorist group, but that has clearly not happened.\n\nDestructive forces have ensured that the capital remains in a permanent state of civil war.\n\nThe weak Somali Army also seems to have been infiltrated by the terrorist group. (It is believed that the explosive-laden trucks passed two check points without being inspected.)\n\nMogadishuans are sick and tired of this state of affairs and just want a normal life where they can send their children to school without worrying about their safety and where they can enjoy a walk on the beach without wondering if they will be attacked.\n\nAl-Shabaab may have its grievances, but this latest attack has alienated the terrorist group even from those who might have had some sympathy for it, as demonstrated by the widespread protests against the militia in Mogadishu and other cities last week.\n\nAccording to the International Crisis Group, these recent attacks have united Somalis and may even shore up support for President Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo’s government.\n\nHowever, they also highlight the many challenges his government faces, including a weak army, and dysfunctional government institutions, corrupt official.\n\nOthers are friction and competition between the central government and federal states and long-standing clan-based hostilities – all of which Al-Shabaab exploits.\n\nTackling these challenges should, therefore, be a priority for the Somali government.\n\nNonetheless, these recent attacks in Mogadishu have illustrated that the people of Somalia no longer have an appetite for war or terrorism.\n\nThis could be a watershed moment for the strife-torn country.",

"SWCVI: The Second Session of the Super Secret Panel",
null,
"The Super Secret Panel with Todd, Seth, and Matt may not have been as secret today, but I don't think the fact that people already knew a little made it any less funny. Plus, a very special guest did show up at the end of the panel who wasn't at yesterday's session. The team behind the new Star Wars Detours jumped right in and showed us the trailer but only after they had James Arnold Taylor taken off stage by some bounty hunters. I bet no one told Taylor that was part of his hosting duties.\n\n\nThe trailer for Star Wars Detours showed off everyday life in the galaxy far, far away. If you haven't seen it yet, please take a few minutes and check it out. I think it will make you smile. No, I know it will. It's hilarious to see the characters we love in different settings. In the trailer Dex tells Leia about Padmé's poor decision making abilities, the Death Star is being built under the guise of being a shopping mall, and we see the Emperor return from a singles weekend.\n\n\nTodd Grimes, Seth Green, and Matt Senreich explained that the series takes place in three different environments: the Death Star under construction, Tatooine – especially Jabba's palace, and Dex's Diner on Coruscant. Each location comes with its own set of characters and stories, and they shared clips for each place. Their enthusiasm for the project was contagious. They talked excitedly about everything from Billy Dee Williams voicing Lando to their version of Rotta the Hutt (he's a surly teenager in the series). It has to be amazing for them to finally share the project they've been working on so long.\n\n\nAnd though we did see a bunch of clips, Senreich pointed out that Star Wars Detours isn't just vignettes. We'll watch the characters grow and evolve. It's a linear show with a beginning and an end. We'll get to watch their relationships and stories, and as Grimes said, those everyday aspects make it relatable. He said that came directly from George Lucas.\n\n\nSpeaking of Lucas, he's in the series. Grimes said they showed Lucas animatics of a scene with Darth Vader filming a recruitment video for the Empire, and Lucas asked them to include a director with a flannel shirt and white hair. They even talked Lucas into voicing the character, too. After they mentioned this, Lucas walked onto stage, and as you can imagine, the audience went crazy. I thought a guy sitting in front of me was going to faint.\n\n\nThey talked with Lucas about the series, and so it's clear, Lucas is definitely involved. He's always wanted to see a fun take on the universe like this. He told them to keep pushing with the character designs, and it seems like he's given them a lot of freedom. Lucas said it's definitely for all ages, and I think he put it best when he said, “It's so smart it's dumb, and it's so dumb it's smart.”\n\n\nI'm happy to see this fun spin on the universe we all know and love, and since I know that the people behind it are truly Star Wars fans, I'm not worried. Green specifically mentioned that they're taking great care to be respectful. With great power comes great responsibility and all. Green said, “It's not insulting. It's taking the things you already know and looking at it in a different angle. We are desperately in love with Star Wars, and we would never corrupt it from the inside.”\n\n\nBe sure to check out the Facebook page for Star Wars Detours to keep up with news and clips.\n\n\nAmy Ratcliffe is addicted to Star Wars and writing. You can follower her on Twitter and keep up with all things geeky at her blog."

"Accessibility links\nCommerce Department: Tighter Controls Needed For Cyberweapons : All Tech Considered If software can be used to attack a computer network, then companies need permission before sending that software overseas, the government says. But the cybersecurity industry is up in arms.",
null,
null,
"The Commerce Department is looking to place tighter controls on exporting software that can attack a network. The cybersecurity industry opposes the proposed new rules.\n\nFederal regulators are looking to place tighter controls on the export of cyberweapons following the megabreaches against the Office of Personnel Management and countless retailers.\n\nThe Commerce Department wants to ensure that software that can attack a network — the kind that can break in, bypass encryption and steal data — can't be shipped overseas without permission. But the cybersecurity industry is up in arms.\n\nCompanies like Finfisher and Hacking Team sell computer code to governments that in turn use it for nefarious purposes. According to human rights reports, government agencies in Bahrain, Turkmenistan, Ethiopia and the United Arab Emirates have used spyware to monitor and crack down on activists.\n\nIn response, leaders from about 40 countries got together in December 2013 in the small town of Wassenaar, Netherlands. The U.S. and Britain participated. So did Russia. China did not.\n\nThe countries agreed on principles to control the export of software than can be used for surveillance. To make those principles binding in the U.S., the Commerce Department proposed rules in May. The department did not respond to NPR's request for an interview.\n\n\"These rules, these controls are a reaction to what we see in the press — stories about governments that are using these tools to spy on their citizens,\" says attorney Kevin King of Cooley LLP, which specializes in export controls.\n\nUntil now, U.S. regulation of software exports has been light.\n\nTheft Of Social Security Numbers Is Broader Than You Might Think\n\nIf a U.S. tech company wanted to ship a consumer game like Angry Birds to people in Senegal or India, King says, it doesn't need permission. If it wanted to sell encrypted software that scrambles and encodes a message, then \"you have to give it some thought, but the hurdles are very low.\"\n\nCompliance is easy, King says. There's a one-time registration form, a couple of pages long, and a relatively simple annual reporting requirement. Last year a subsidiary of Intel was fined $750,000 for exporting encryption software to China. But that's a rare event.\n\nKing says the proposed rules create a new and big burden for companies and researchers. For any software that could be used to break into a network or smartphone — whether or not it uses encryption — the creator has to apply for a license before exporting.\n\n\"You're going to be going in for every transaction, requesting permission to be able to release the software,\" he says.\n\nCritics say the problem is not simply, or even primarily, one of Big Government stepping on the toes of small business. It's that regulators are misunderstanding how security works in the world of software.\n\nKatie Moussouris, chief policy officer of HackerOne, says code that can be used to break in can also be used to look for holes that need patching. It's dual use.\n\nIn practice, Moussouris says, bad guys aren't going to stop and ask for permission. So putting a public agency in the middle of private communication just slows down the good guys.\n\n\"Having any kind of speed bump to defense actually makes the entire Internet less safe for everyone,\" she says.\n\nPat Walsh, vice president of product management at Core Security, says even if regulators grant an export license under the new rules, \"the months it takes to get a license may be as good as a denial — especially in an industry that has a need for real-time information sharing.\"\n\nThe Commerce Department rules may also require a company to get permission before sharing information with foreign employees — whether those employees are based in another country or working in the U.S. office.\n\nMark Kuhr, co-founder of the security firm Synack, says that would prevent his researchers in 37 countries from working together and helping clients.\n\n\"It does seem overly broad,\" he says. \"I understand the intent, wanting to keep cutting edge cybersecurity tools and stuff in the United States to make us more secure.\" But he says keeping the Internet safe takes lots of emails and secure chats between coders in different countries.\n\nMonday is the last day for public comment on the proposed new rules by the Commerce Department."

"Last year I became curious about how successful Michigan was at recruiting each state. That curiosity has spilled over to the 2011 class, and the chart above shows the percentages of successfully recruited players from each state. This is all based upon offers recorded on the 2011 Offer Board located at the top of the page. I can’t promise that it’s 100% accurate, because sometimes reporting of offers is a little bit iffy. But it’s the best I could do.\n\nIt should also be pointed out that Brady Hoke’s late hiring as Michigan’s coach somewhat skews the numbers. Players who decommitted (Jake Fisher from Michigan; Matt Goudis from California; Kevin Sousa and Dallas Crawford from Florida) would have changed the numbers slightly.\n\nAs might be expected, Michigan was the most successfully recruited state. Nearly 50% of in-state offers were accepted; the decommitment of Fisher was the only thing standing in the way.\n\nTexas was a bit of a surprise. Michigan pulled in three commitments from Texas – a heavily talented state – while only giving out eleven offers. But it’s a bit curious that Michigan’s coaches didn’t pursue more players in the state. Running backs coach Fred Jackson has some contacts in Texas, and even though several Rich Rodriguez assistants had connections in Florida (where Michigan tossed out 43 offers), the success rate in Florida over the past couple years has been abysmal. Michigan went 3-for-46 (7%) in Florida last year, and that number looks like an unbridled success when compared to the 1-for-43 showing this year (2%).\n\nAfter crunching the numbers for two consecutive seasons, it seems that Michigan’s coaches probably wasted quite a bit of time recruiting the Sunshine State. Maybe it was a risk-reward thing with Rodriguez (after all, Denard Robinson is from Florida), but a batting average of .020 is horrible, no matter how you slice it. When you hand out 190 offers, you probably spend quite a bit of time talking to kids or the coaches of kids who have very little chance of attending your university. Perhaps Rich Rodriguez and Co. would have benefitted from making more intimate connections with fewer kids rather than, as one commenter said, “carpet bombing” the country with offers.\n\nOhio was once again recruited with some success (37% in 2010; 24% in 2011), and Hoke will surely continue to work hard in the state. Even though Rodriguez got a large number of 2010 recruits from Ohio, he didn’t seem to hit the state very hard in his last season. The percentage of accepted offers jumped significantly once Hoke was hired. He reeled in four recruits in approximately three weeks on the job, including the likes of Tamani Carter, Antonio Poole, Keith Heitzman, and Frank Clark. Prior to his arrival, Rodriguez had accepted only three commitments from Ohioans – Greg Brown, Jack Miller, and Chris Rock.\n\nAltogether, Michigan offered players from 27 different states. The Wolverines struck out in twenty of them, including:"

"Live Updates on my efforts to fight Biden’s Vaccine Mandate\n\nUnder the Mineral Leasing Act, the federal government leases federal land for the development of energy, minerals and other materials, and shares the revenue with the states in which the leases are held. The revenue is currently split evenly between the states and the federal government. Section 302 of the budget deal would only decrease what the states receive, leaving the federal portion intact. That would mean a total reduction of $415 million for the states, with roughly $32 million coming from Utah.\n\nToday, Senator Mike Lee announced that current Utah State Representative Derek Brown has accepted the position of Deputy Chief of Staff and State Director for the senator’s office. Rep. Brown will resign his seat in the Utah Legislature effective January 2, 2014 and will assume his new role on January 3rd. Senator Lee’s Chief of Staff Boyd Matheson had been filling the State Director duties for the past year.\n\nI do not envy House Republicans in their task of negotiating a budget with a Senate majority and president hostile to the very idea of having one. But the deal they have struck is not one I can support.",

"Today, Senator Mike Lee hosted a roundtable with Utah citizens, experts, government officials, and community activists on the growing crisis of immobility among the poor. The event is a continuation of Sen. Lee’s “Let’s Talk” series he began in August, taking him around the state to hear directly from Utahns about the critical issues facing the state and the country.\n\nWASHINGTON - Today, Utah Senators Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch responded to the announcement by the Bureau of Land Management that it will be deferring nearly 100,000 acres from the proposed oil and gas lease auction on Tuesday, November 19. The BLM announcement that it will reduce the land available at auction by nearly 70% comes just days before sale was scheduled; once again proving the administration's repeated promises of transparency and open communication are empty.\n\n“At a time when the State of Utah, local counties, and Utah's federal delegation are participating in a large scale initiative to resolve many long-standing public land issues, this last-minute bait and switch only reinforces the widespread belief that, under this Administration, BLM is becoming a vehicle for policies created by radical environmentalists,” said Senator Lee. “This bureaucratic maneuvering does more than hurt the companies that were ready, willing, and able to participate in Tuesday's auction. It discourages companies from participating in future auctions, and perhaps ever investing in states that are dominated by federal land ownership. The cumulative impact of this and other similar actions serves to drive investment away from the families and communities that live near lands managed by the federal government. In order to thrive, these communities need a good faith partner in the BLM.”\n\n“This misguided announcement by the Bureau of Land Management to defer the leasing of 100,000 acres for energy production because of pressure from environmental elites ironically comes on the heels of news last month that the United States produced more oil than it imported,” said Hatch. “The fact that our nation is a global leader in energy production seems lost on the President and his Administration who’s doing everything to stop that from happening. This hurts American jobs and American energy independence and must stop.”\n\nToday, Senator Mike Lee outlined a conservative anti-poverty agenda to address the growing opportunity crisis in America. His speech, at a forum sponsored by the Heritage Foundation, detailed the causes of social immobility among the working and middle class and charted several reforms that clear a path to help individuals and families stuck in poverty."

"Buy this book\nAmazon\nBarnes & Noble\nBookshop\nZeebra Books\nMr. Meredith trips over an old cracked stone, which appears remarkable to him. He is so enamored of this stone that he invites his friends over to view it. Then he notices that his greenhouse seems too dingy for such an amazing stone, and so he builds a bigger and better one. But no matter how elaborate the setting, Mr. Meredith believes he still has not done the stone justice. His concern persists, even after an entire city has been erected and thousands of people have arrived to see it. A surprising ending gives the stone the setting it deserves, and Mr. Meredith realizes he has inspired a few remarkable events himself. Chetwin, best known for her SF novels, gives the story a chanting, dancing rhythm; Stock comes through with her best work ever. Beginning with simple watercolors, she mixes her media until fabric collage, pencil and paint combine in a dizzying array of texture and shapes; her crowd scenes are an impressionistic fantasy in droplets of color. The story--and the stone--may not be remarkable, but the art sets off the text splendidly. Ages 4-7. (Mar.)"

"On the surface, the well-being of the American worker seems rosy.\nUnemployment in the U.S. hovers near a 50-year low, and employers describe growing shortages of workers in a wide array of fields.\n\nBut looking beyond the numbers tells a different story. My new book, “The Importance of Work in an Age of Uncertainty,” reveals that some Americans are experiencing an erosion in the world of work that is hurting their well-being, relationships and hopes for the future.\n\nWe can’t simply blame the rise of the gig economy. It’s also a result of a growing impermanence in the U.S. economy, with more short-term jobs that lack security and decent benefits. At the same time, worker wages continue to stagnate, which underscores the breadth of the problem.\n\nBeyond the numbers, a complex reality\n\nThe unemployment rate, which at 3.7% is about the lowest since 1969, is the usual metric economists and others use to understand the labor market and how workers are faring.\n\nAlthough statistics like this suggest there’s an abundance of jobs in the American labor market, it tells us nothing about their quality and ignores a more complex reality. Moreover, it fails to account for the growing and disconcerting prevalence of what is called precarious work, or short-term or contract jobs with minimal protections for workers such as less sick time or no health insurance.\n\nThe most obvious examples are Uber drivers and TaskRabbit freelancers but also include coders, warehouse workers and many others who are on short-term contracts. According to recent estimates, this type of work now makes up about 11% of all jobs.\n\nWhile the growth in precarious work is slow, more disconcerting is the fact that 94% of new jobs are short-term.\n\nAlong with wages that have barely budged for most Americans in decades, this is creating serious stress for today’s workers.\n\nThe erosion of work\n\nTo explore the impact of the changing nature of work, a research team I led interviewed 58 workers from a wide range of backgrounds.\n\nWe used qualitative research methods and related scholarship to help us interpret the interviews and draw meaningful conclusions.\n\nOne of the major takeaways of these interviews and my related work is that people increasingly feel a loss of stability, security and safety in the workforce, which is generating a deep feeling of psychological distress. People feel untethered to both their jobs and communities, which is taking a toll on worker health.\n\nThe stories we heard were painful and revealing. Three vignettes in particular stand out.\n\n‘Next thing you know you’re out the door’\n\nFor some workers, the first sign of a red slip is showing up to work to find police cars in the parking lot. Police are sometimes called in before mass layoffs to ensure disgruntled employees don’t engage in acts of sabotage or worse.\n\nThat was the experience of a 63-year-old white computer programmer we interviewed. He was fired in a mass layoff along with a third of his colleagues at a high-tech company. One moment, he was receiving very positive evaluations. The next, he was on the street.\n\n“When I saw [my manager] standing there I knew that I was next,” he told me. “You get handed a little severance money. You get told your medical plan is good for the next two weeks. You get a box, and the next thing you know you’re out the door.”\n\nAfter he lost his job, he struggled to find stable work. He drove taxis, served beer at Tampa Bay Buccaneers games and even drove high school kids to school. His perseverance eventually paid off and he was able to train to become a teacher. But the toll of this period of precarious work still resonates powerfully in his family.\n\nFirings of this nature underscore how workers are becoming a commodity – as opposed to a resource for organizations and employers – that represent mere expenses to be reduced to boost profits.\n\n‘A new form of slavery’\n\nOther workers can’t seem to escape the world of precarious work in the first place.\n\nAn African American woman in her early 20s said she wasn’t able to go to college – where she could have learned the skills necessary to get ahead in the job market – because she needed to start working right away to support and care for her dying grandmother. So she worked in unstable retail jobs that lacked basic benefits like health care.\n\nAfter her grandmother passed away, she moved to Boston in hopes of securing a better job in a more vibrant city. But, unable to find a job that matched her skills in caregiving and retail, she was lost her apartment and was forced to stay in a shelter. Her experienced left her bitter about the labor market, which she referred to as a “new form of slavery.”\n\nI interviewed several women from this particular shelter and they each told a similar story, one that has become more common as the less skilled workforce struggles to gain access to stable work.\n\nThe fact that the woman used slavery as an analogy for her experience in the work world speaks volumes about the psychological pain these work-related challenges can cause.\n\nA 50-year-old white man at a government-sponsored career services agency told us he felt his best work days were in the rearview mirror.\n\nAt the time of the interview, he had a temporary job at the agency but was not optimistic that he would be able to stay beyond his six-month contract. Thinking back on his first job out of college repairing computers, he recalled the joy of being with people who valued each other and their common mission. But that was gone.\n\nHis current unstable work life left him bereft of those connections and friends, and without a sense of purpose.\n\n“I no longer expect work to fulfill my needs anymore,” he said. “A job is a job.”"

"The ninth trick for Bayern! Betting?\n\nBusiness as usual in the German Bundesliga? Will the reigning triple winner Bayern Munich secure the German championship again? Or can the young BVB team really stand up to Bavaria for the entire season this year? Will Nagelsmann even lead the cops to the front? These questions consist of the same question: Who will be German champion 2020/21? Betting base presents the best odds and a prediction.\n\nWith season bets, not only is the question of the champion interesting, but there are other interesting betting options such as who is at the top of a table without Bayern?\n\nIf you follow German football, you shouldn’t miss our tip category Bundesliga and should save it in your favourites. Our authors publish interesting predictions and tips for all games in the German Bundesliga.\n\nAs the reigning triple winner, Hansi Flick’s team is, of course, the clear favourite to successfully defend the title in the national championship. Many fans, for whom Bayern are a red rag, find it difficult to find counter-arguments for this thesis.\n\nIn many places the fans would be looking forward to an exciting title fight until the end, this was only the case in the 2018/19 season in recent years. Otherwise, Bayern’s dominance was too clear, which was proven by a proud 13-point lead last season.\n\nIn the case of the championship bets of the German Bundesliga, hardly any useful odds are offered on Bayern because they range from 1.10 to 1.15.\n\nNinth title win in a row for Bayern? The odds say YES!\n\nChildren who started school this year cannot remember any other German champions than Bayern Munich. In the past eight years, the title was leased from the Munich crowd. Despite very disappointing performances in autumn 2019, Bayern had a clear lead in the final table of the German Bundesliga and was able to secure the title win again early on. The championship odds of the Bundesliga hardly allow good bets.\n\nMainly responsible for this development is Hansi Flick, who got the trust after the Kovac dismissal and repaid it with outstanding achievements. Under Flick, Bayern has collected an incredible 2.73 points per game in 41 competitive games. Overall, Bayern only suffered three defeats – on the other hand, they won the championship, cup, premier class, German Supercup and European Supercup. Flick has won more titles than lost.\n\nBayern is still hungry for success and on deadline day “Brazzo” Salihamidzic also had to be given a good report card, who succeeded in strengthening the squad again massively, especially across the board. With returnees Douglas Costa, Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting and Bouna Sarr, the multiple exposures will not be a problem either.\n\nAre the young and wild at BVB playing spoilsport?\n\nNew Year New luck! The black and yellow could not fulfil their big ambitions last season and in many places, the fans could hear that a change of coach would have been welcomed. The club management did not comply with this “wish”, because Lucien Favre got another chance to prove that he is a coach who can win titles\n\nAlthough the Bavarians act as a superior force, the existing squad in the Ruhr area definitely has the quality to stand up to the Bavarians in the long term. In addition to seasoned professionals such as Mats Hummels, Marco Reus, Axel Witsel or Lukas Piszczek, Thomas Meunier is now also joining. In addition to these established forces, there are countless youngsters who have great careers ahead of them.\n\nNevertheless, the best bookmakers offer odds of up to 8.00 when predicting the German champions Borussia Dortmund. The reason for this could be seen on the second matchday: Dortmund always has outliers down in the game and (too) often has to accept unnecessary point losses.\n\nThis represents the biggest difference to Bayern, who with an irrepressible will to win, sometimes end a weak game with three points. BVB, on the other hand, lacks precisely this consistency. Accordingly, the high odds on the ninth championship of Borussia Dortmund are understandable.\n\nHowever, a look at history could be a good omen – Jürgen Klopp became champion in his third year in Dortmund. The 2020/21 season will be his third season as BVB head coach for Lucien Favre.\n\nGerman champions of the last 10 years\n\nRB Leipzig be competitive without Werner?\n\nIn the first year under Julian Nagelsman, third place last season was confirmed. In addition, RBL caused a sensation in the premier class and only had to admit defeat in the semi-finals.\n\nThe big question this season is how strong the bulls are without Timo Werner. Getting to the semi-finals in the premier class gives the Nagelsmann team courage because Leipzig already had to do without the German national player at the final tournament.\n\nRBL with a broad squad at a balanced level\n\nA look at the current squad shows a similar picture to that of Borussia Dortmund. Nagelsmann has an abundance of strong players. But there will be no more Torgarant like Werner this season.\n\nThe tactical possibilities are enormous, however, because Leipzig can easily cope with several failures. With Christopher Nkunku a strong “false nine” would be available, newcomer Alexander Sörloth is a “real nine” – a penalty striker who can hold the balls.\n\nThe bulls’ neutral assessment is relatively congruent with that of Borussia Dortmund. A lot of talent, a lot of quality – but not the consistency to be able to stand up to Bayern for 34 match days.\n\nWho will be German Champion 2020/21? Interesting to bet on outsiders?\n\nBasically, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig are already considered by the bookmakers as clear outsiders on winning the title.\n\nBut after this trio, there is a huge gap when you look at the current betting odds. For example, betting odds of just under 70.00 are offered for the German champions Gladbach, while the Bosz team from Leverkusen even stakes more than 80 times.\n\nBoth teams have the quality to annoy the top three teams on a good day. However, none of these teams can be expected to have a consistently high level of performance from the first to the 34th match day.\n\nAll other teams already have three-digit odds for the German champions 2020/21 in the betting base odds comparison. The assessment that capital city club Hertha BSC Berlin can only be found in ninth place among the bookmakers with betting odds of up to 275.00 seems quite surprising. After a strong transfer summer, there is great euphoria in the federal capital. The primary goal of the Labbadia team should not be a big coup, but the return to Europe.\n\nBayern had taken out a subscription to the German championship in recent years. Behind Bayern, however, places two to four have always been in great demand, after all, those positions qualify for the UEFA Champions League.\n\nBayern can already factor in the rain of money from the premier class with a look at the best bookmakers because quite a few bookmakers do not even offer odds for a top-four placement. Even with the Favre team from the Ruhrpott, the current odds are under 1.10.\n\nBehind the duo, the bull eleven from Leipzig seem to be the logical tip for third place in the Champions League. According to the bookmakers, the fight for fourth place will be a duel on equal terms between Gladbach and Leverkusen, just like last year. Or can an underdog slide in between? The capital city club must be mentioned again here, value is definitely present with the current Hertha odds.\n\nThe global health crisis keeps the world in suspense and causes certain restrictions in daily life. Football returned to the stage early on, but the majority of fans are still denied access to the stadium.\n\nIn summary, here are a few special regulations that will apply to the 2020/21 season in the Bundesliga, but will probably only have a minor impact on championship bets.\n\nIn contrast to Italy, the health authority always has priority with its decision\nAccordingly, the audience load can vary from state to state\nFurthermore, five changes per game are allowed (however a maximum of three-game interruptions)"

"how did the experiments carried out by gregor mendel help in understanding the theory of evolution??\n\nGregor Mendel's 1866 paper on plant hybridization formed the basis for the modern study of genetics, which was used in the 1940s in support of Darwin's theory of evolution.\n\nMuch of Mendel's research concerned hybridism and its role in evolution. He transplanted unusual wild varieties of plants to his garden, and when they failed to converge with the known domestic forms he concluded that environmental influence, as in Lamarckian evolution, could not account for the modification of species .\n\nMendel's idea that some species might begin as hybrids was introduced by Carolus Linnaeus in the eighteenth century.\n\nBishop (1996) points to Mendel's \"population approach\" as an influence of a more modern evolutionary view, but Mendel's emphasis on populations was very different from Darwin's. Darwin saw a large population, interacting with every aspect of the environment, as the necessary focus of evolutionary study. Mendel used large numbers not because he thought it was necessary to observe the very mechanism but for the practical purpose of arriving at numerical laws which could provide insight into the mechanism. He believed that the mechanisms relevant to evolution lay in the organisms themselves, but they could not be directly observed so it was necessary to study the average behaviour of a large group and treat the data statistically.\n\nMendel aimed to provide some of the detail that his predecessors had failed to investigate. To this end, he began his discussion of the evolutionary significance of hybrids by making a clear distinction between \"variable\" and \"constant\" hybrids. The offspring of variable hybrids would display Reversion, while constant hybrids would breed true. Mendel's object was to determine which circumstances could give rise to which types, and whether constant hybrids could be produced in a reproducible experiment.\n\nMendel never reached a point where he could make a definite conclusion about the role of hybrids in the origin of species.\n\nDarwin knew that the lack of an explanation for heredity left a big gap in his theory of natural selection.\nDarwin, like many of his contemporaries, speculated that characteristics of the parents were blended -- like mixing paint -- as they passed to the offspring.\n\nMendel read Darwin with deep interest, but he disagreed with the blending notion, hypothesizing instead that traits, such as eye color or height or flower hues, were carried by tiny particles that were inherited whole in the next generation. According to him, an adaptive mutation could spread slowly through a species and never be blended out. Darwin's theory of natural selection, building on small mutations, could work.",

"Say It In Latin: A Posteriori And A Priori\n\n— a posteriori, a priori, Latin, philosophy\n\nThe Latin phrase a posteriori refers to the process of inductive reasoning. It means “from what comes after” or a proposition based on experience. A close relative, also used in philosophical arguments, is a priori, which is knowledge based on previous understanding of the concept. It means literally from what comes before. A priori can be a mathematical equation, or any other agreed upon fact deriving from the agreement. It would be correct to call the statement “It is cloudy outside.” a posteriori because I looked outside and can see the fact that it is cloudy now. The statement, “Cumulous clouds are the harbinger of rain.” is an assumption based on scientific agreement, and therefore is a priori. We agree on the definition of cumulous clouds without the need to experience them directly. “That bow is red” is another a priori belief. We all have agreed on what red is (except the colorblind).\n\nA posteriori is based on empirical evidence, direct contact with the facts. A priori is based on logic previously accepted as sound. On the surface it might seem that a posteriori is the only valid way to defend a position. I have learned from my studies of ancestry and history that both methods can fail miserably. My grandmother thought she knew her birth year, but there was no certificate. Later in life she forgot, and then nobody really knew, or bothered to look it up because it did not matter. She had no way to remember her own birth, so her a priori birthday was a year off the real date. Many “facts” in records from the past have been recorded incorrectly. Census records that list step mothers as natural parents, step children as children, and other errors can throw a wrench in the works for investigators trying to follow a lineage.\n\nBe careful, gentle reader. Logic and truth are tricky subjects. Check your logic, and double-check your data before you make any big conclusions. Caveat emptor.",

"I’ve been advertising my books with Amazon Marketing Services (AMS) for the past six months. Product Display ads appear to be the holy grail, and they’ve taken off for me once. Once. I think I know why.\n\nCAVEAT: This is all speculation. I have no concrete evidence about what Amazon is doing with regards to Product Display ads, other than interpretation of my own data. However, if enough data can be collected, perhaps some insight can be attained. This is also not an optimal book launch. Your mileage may vary.\n\nThere are two kinds of AMS ads that can be used for ebooks: Sponsored Product ads (SP, or commonly referred to as keyword ads) and Product Display (PD) ads. Both operate on a bidding system for clicks.\n\nSP ads show below the “Also Bought/Viewed” books on a product page under a heading of “Sponsored products related to this item.” SP ads also display at the bottom of search results. PD ads show on the right side of the screen under the buying options, a couple of banner spots that are difficult to find, as well as on the Kindle lock screen and home screen.\n\nThere are a couple of important aspects to note about the PD ad. First, they don’t always show up. I can only guess that this is due to the book either being unpopular, being in an unpopular sub-category, or it’s not selling well. In addition, other Amazon product ads positioned around the customer reviews are not shown as well. This makes sense. Why display ads on a product’s detail page that isn’t getting enough eyeballs? Of course there are exceptions. Many “Big 5” published books have PD ads show up even with poor ranks and extremely popular indie-published books do not.\n\nSecond, the PD ad spots are finite. There’s a limited number of them to go around, and they go to the most popular and highest bidder. For argument’s sake, let’s assume only the top 100 books receive PD ads displayed on their detail pages. The competition from other books for visibility will fierce. It’s like trying to get into the most popular club in town. The lineup goes around the block and there’s no guarantee of getting in unless you’re famous or you’re willing to pay the bouncer. Contrast that to an SP keyword ad, where the ad “carousel” expands and shrinks as needed ordered by highest to lowest click bids. It’s easy for anyone running an SP ad to get exposure with the right keywords and bid, but it’s far from optimal.\n\nPD ads get worthwhile impressions (>1000 per day) only if the book that is being advertised is selling.\n\nIs there a correlation between rank and PD ads being shown? I think there is, based on my limited data set for my most recent book David’s Summer, and knowing Amazon’s goal is to sell the most books as possible. In the first graph, there is a huge rank change on October 1, my launch day. I had a short one-week pre-order going to help stabilize the sales graph. In hindsight, I should have had a longer pre-order duration to give Amazon lots of data to work from.\n\nThe data from PD ads on the AMS dashboard is delayed by three days. In the second graph, I shifted the impression data by three days and the correlation becomes more clear. My PD ads begin to take off on October 1 and continue through to October 10, where things begin to decline. Impressions decrease and rank falls to a low of 67,439.",
null,
"On October 10, I realized that David’s Summer was not enrolled in Kindle Unlimited (KU), so I enabled it. Two days later I achieved the highest rank of my launch, 13,910. Another two days later, rank had dropped to 25,429 and my PD ad impressions began to drop as well, even though my rank held reasonably steady for three more days before it started to fall once again. It could be that KU borrows don’t have as strong an effect on rank as sales do, or the PD ads had run their course, having a limited lifetime of two to three weeks. Probably it was a combination of both.\n\nDuring the eighteen day period my twenty PD ads were actively serving, I had ten bidding $0.20 and ten bidding $0.22. I had added the second set of ads at $0.22 because at the time I didn’t understand how PD ads worked. There is a good chance I could have received good activity if I had bid lower. I’ll have to test that out at during a future launch.\n\nI have a new book due for release in the new year and I will be employing these ideas for its launch. I’ll post more about it then.\n\nMeanwhile, have you experienced data like this? I’d love to hear about it. If we can get enough people with similar data across many different genres, it’s almost as good as knowing the secrets beneath the algorithms.\n\nOne more thing. If you’re looking for a quick way to collect keywords for SP ads, I would suggest the ASIN scraper from Kindletrends.com."

"I do not doubt mayor Marvin Rees’ honesty, or question his personal integrity. I am absolutely sure he believes he is doing the right thing for Bristol.\n\nHowever, I do strongly question the motives of some of those who advise and influence him. In particular, his political head of office who seems to have been driving council policy; and YTL, the Malaysian company that seeks to relieve Bristol of our hard-won £53m grant towards the arena project.\n\nI have been listening to statements from the mayor’s office with increasing concern over the last couple of weeks, compounding a confused decision-making process that seems to have broken all seven principles of public life:\n\n1. Selflessness\nIt is evident that the decision making has been driven, at least in part, by personal resentment rather than by what is best for the people of Bristol who have been clear as to their preference.\n\n2. Integrity\nAccepting thousands of pounds worth of hospitality from a company seeking advantage from a mayoral decision is not “normal”, as claimed.\n\n3. Objectivity\nFreedom of Information requests have revealed clear bias in consultancy appointments and decision-making ever since Marvin’s first trip to Malaysia to meet with YTL in December 2017.\n\n4. Accountability\nThe mayor, presumably advised by his head of office, has refused to submit himself to the council’s scrutiny process.\n\n5. Openness\nThe mayor’s office has grossly underplayed the significance of thousands of pounds of expenses paid by YTL, listing them inconspicuously with minor gifts or meals, without declaring even an estimated cost.\n\n6. Honesty\nMisleading figures have been quoted regarding project costs to make false comparisons, and the people of Bristol have been misled that the mayor was yet to make up his mind.\n\n7. Leadership\nMarvin has allowed his office and other interested parties to drive what has been a fiasco of a decision making process and to lose their moral compass.\n\nIt is the most fundamental principle of public service that one does not allow oneself to be compromised. If I or my office had broken just one of these seven principles I would have been roasted alive by council and media, and rightly so!\n\nI have been reluctant to return to the fray, and have no intention of returning to public life, but I do feel passionate about our very special city and shall continue to do all I can to defend its character and soul against those who would destroy it with grossly inappropriate high block development, as is now proposed in the recently revealed alternative plan for Arena Island."

"Avoid Getting Ripped Off When Exchanging Currencies or Sending Money Abroad\n\nEvery time you’ve transferred money abroad, or exchanged currencies before a vacation, you’ve been ripped off. Horribly so, in fact. When you factor in unfair fees and wildly disparate exchange rates, the total loss to you can often exceed hundreds of dollars.\n\nThe two biggest culprits are banks and currency exchanges, who rake in billions of dollars each year, largely at your expense. But they needn’t. Here’s how you can get your travel money and transfer money between 5 Tips You Should Always Remember for Sending Money Internationally Sending money internationally is a potential minefield of hidden charges, security concerns, and paperwork. There are some tips you should always remember to keep your experience as cheap, smooth, and hassle-free as possible. Read More international bank accounts without getting stung.\n\nThe problem is, they’re technically not. Whilst they don’t charge you a flat fee, they do charge an inaccurate rate of exchange. This can often be as much as 13% in their favor. This means that if you exchange $1,000 US Dollars for another currency, you’ll be as much $130 out of pocket.\n\nThankfully, not for much longer. Coming out of London – the unofficial world capital of financial technology start-ups – WeSwap aims to make it cheaper, easier and faster to exchange currency.",

"The principle behind the application is simple.\n\nYou register on the WeSwap website, and once they’ve verified you are who you say you are, they’ll send you a free MasterCard debit card. It’s important to stress how above-board WeSwap are. Not only do they make as many efforts as possible to keep fraudsters off the site, but they also adhere to strict regulations established by their payment gateways and the other financial institutions they deal with.\n\nThey’re also regulated by the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission, which represents all financial services companies operating in the UK-owned territory.\n\nOnce registered, you can then pre-load your debit card with multiple foreign currencies – up to 16 as of April 2015, including US Dollars, British Pounds, Japanese Yen and Australian Dollars.\n\nHowever, you’re not necessarily buying your currency from WeSwap. Rather, you’re exchanging currency with other members of the site, who are all looking to get cheap foreign currency for their next big trip abroad. This is all done seamlessly and quickly, and you are only charged 1% of your transaction. If you’re looking for a more niche currency – like Polish Zloty, or Hungarian Forint – and there isn’t enough user-generated supply, you can always buy it from WeSwap themselves. Although here, they’ll charge you a 1.5% fee, which is still pretty competitive given what you’ll get charged on the high street.\n\nIt’s important to stress that you’re getting the best rates possible. Not the ones on the high street, but rather the rates a bank would get, which are provided through the XE currency rates XE Currency Is The Best Way To Get Monetary Conversions On The Go [iOS] If you are looking for a fantastic application to do monetary conversions on your iOS device, look no further than XE Currency. It has a slick, easy to use interface that makes it easy to... Read More platform.\n\nOnce you’ve swapped your currency, you’re good to go. It’s all loaded on your MasterCard, and you can spend it as you would with a normal debit card.\n\nIf you have multiple currencies on the one card there is no need to worry about the wrong balance being deducted, the service will automatically choose the correct currency depending on which country you are in.\n\nThe only downside is that WeSwap is currently only available in ten European countries, including the UK, Sweden, Norway and Italy. They do, however, have plans to enter the US market in months to come.\n\nI’m originally from the UK, but for a long while I lived in Geneva, Switzerland where I was employed as an IT worker for an NGO. Each month, I’d transfer money to my mother, so she could pay off my British credit card. It was an arrangement that worked, but was eye wateringly expensive, as anyone who has ever used Western Union knows.",

"There has to be a better way.\n\nUnfortunately, the banks aren’t much better. Most banks in the UK charge around £25 ($40) to make an international bank transfer. It’s just as steep in Europe, and in the United States.\n\nOne company looking to eat Western Union’s dinner is TransferWise, who operate in North America, Europe and India, and promise to transfer your money across borders for only 0.5%. TransferWise is regulated by the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority, and like WeSwap, is based in London.\n\nFrom a consumer’s perspective, TransferWise works not unlike traditional online banking websites The 7 Best Online Banking Features For Simplifying Your Life Does money management stress you out? What if you could effortlessly alleviate some of that stress for good? Online banking offers a lot of benefits that can help to simplify the headaches of money. Read More . Log in to your own account, type in the amount and recipient, and press send. But what’s interesting is not the mechanism to send a payment, but what actually happens behind the scenes.\n\nInstead of directly sending the transfer and incurring fees, they instead wait and see if their request for payment can be fulfilled by locally available sources of funds.\n\nThis has a few advantages. Firstly, it’s significantly more expedient than certain methods of transferring money, although nothing quite beats Western Union which can transfer funds across borders in just a matter of hours.\n\nSecondly, it means that the transaction is cheaper to make, since no money is crossing borders, and they can use an exchange rate that approaches the actual market value.\n\nSince it’s a modern, regulated system, they’ve taken steps to protect TransferWise against any fraudulent usage. This is massive, as currency transfer agents have traditionally be used by West African 419 scammers to receive funds, as our own Angela Alcorn found out last year How I Nearly Got Conned Via A Western Union Transfer Scam Here's a little story about the latest \"Nigerian scam\", which is all too obvious in hindsight and yet so believable when you're on the hook. Read More .\n\nThat’s an incredibly compelling offering, especially when compared to banks who charge more, and are slower at executing transfers.\n\nNever Get Ripped Off Again\n\nBad news, banks. The era of you ripping us off has passed.\n\nSimply put, there are better, cheaper alternatives to you, and you’ll never get our custom ever again. For those of us looking just to save a few bucks, this is awesome. But for the millions of expatriates and migrants who use banks and transfer agents to send remittances back home, this is vital.\n\nWhat do you think? Do you have a clever way of transferring money back home? How do you get your travel money?\n\nLet me know in the comments section below, and we’ll chat.",
