Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin announced their mutual decision to split in a candid, emotional statement on her website, Goop.

Whoa! Gwyneth Paltrow's kids, Apple, 6, and Moses, 4, have some strange accents! The Country Strong actress, 38, and her husband, Coldplay's Chris Martin, 33, raise their two kids in London and New York, which had led to them developing some "bizarre" ways of speaking! "Our kids go to school in London so we're there during the school year and we come back whenever we can, for holidays and summers," Gwyneth tells Chelsea Handler on her show Chelsea Lately. "Weirdly my son is half-Brooklyn and half-English — he's got a really strange accent — and my daughter is completely American with me at home or in America, but completely British at school.

KP to spend Rs9b on water, soil conservation

PESHAWAR – The Khyber Pakthunkhwa Government will spend about Rs 9 billion on conservation of water and soil in the province during next five years to get maximum area under wheat, rice and others crops besides vegetables and fruits cover.
|
The water and soil's conservation especially in rainy areas are top most priority of the government and up to Rs 9 billion would be spent on strengthening of these sectors to make the province self-sufficient in wheat, rice and other agriculture production, Mohibullah Khan, Minister for Agriculture, Livestock and Dairy Development told APP .
|
He said all arid and semi arid areas besides waterlogged would be included in this mega project and about Rs billion would be required for conservation of water and soil in the province.
|
He said KP government has chalked out a comprehensive plan for pavement of 20000 watercourses in next five years to provide uninterrupted water supply to farmers especially at the tail-ends in the province.
|
In the first 100-days of PTI government, he said an inclusive strategy was evolved for pavement of 12000 to 20000 watercourses in the province by 2023 to address problem of wastage of irrigation water.
|
The Minister said around 76000 watercourses existed in Khyber Pakthunkhwa among which only 26,000 were constructed. He said agriculture is backbone of the country's economy as 85pc population and industries are relying directly or indirectly relied on agriculture sector.
|
In next five years, he said our prime focus would be strengthening of agriculture research and extension services, livestock animals health disease control, breading and genetic resource conservation programs, veterinary and agriculture education, human resource development, provision of special incentives in terms of seeds and fertilizers to farmers.

He said conservation program to save rare breed of Azakheli buffaloes in Malakand division has been started in Swat district keeping in view its high potential in meats and milk's production. The population of these buffaloes mainly found in Khwazakhella and Madyan areas of Swat district, had witnessed decrease due to devastation of floods in 2010 and militancy in 2008-09 in Swat in line with new livestock policy 2018.
|
Mohibullah Khan said the department is also working on a plan for conservation and protection of an endangered sheep of Damani DI Khan, Hasthangar, Waziri sheep and Sannen goat in the province.
|
Khyber Pakthunkhwa is blessed with both cold and warm water resources and offers immense opportunities for fish farming as the province has 6100 kilometers rivers and streams, 6400 hectares of natural lakes and 54600 hectares of dams and reservoirs ideal for fish production.
|
Before PTI government, he said only 15 farms of trout fish was available in the province and during last five years it had raised to 200. He said government has planned to establish 200 more model fish farms and hatcheries in next five years to boost fish farming and its production.
|
Spilt of sewerage water directly into watercourses, canals and rivers are major causes of water population besides making negative effect on lives of fishes including endangered 'Masher' and holistic approach especially cooperation of community was required to curb this practice, he said.

Incredible 1964 Topps Football Complete Set - #1 on the PSA Registry!
|
This set is the result of a decade-long project, undertaken by an extremely advanced football collector with an incredible eye for quality. Registered more than a decade ago on the PSA Set Registry, this set has been the #1 1964 Topps set for eight of the last ten years. With an incredible GPA of 8.28, the set is #2 on the All-Time Finest list, far and away the top set on the Registry and certainly one of the highest-grade, most attractive football sets ever assembled. With no cards graded lower than PSA NM-MT 8, the set (175 cards plus a checklist) includes an astounding 41 cards graded MINT 9 and 26 cards that are the highest-graded examples possible.
|
The consignor of this set has diligently examined tens of thousands of 1964 Topps football cards over the past decade, upgrading every card in the set as many as three, four, or five times. Constantly scouring eBay, public auctions and card shows for upgrades, the consignor often upgrades within the grade, looking for the best-centered, sharpest and most bold example possible. The result is an incredible collection of cards, each one meticulously scrutinized so that it is the best possible card.
|
We were shocked when the consignor told us he was ready to sell this set, because it has been his 'baby' for a long time. The set is so strong that the consignor is also the owner of multiple other NM-MT 1964 Topps sets, comprised of cards that were "not good enough" to make this one. We have watched this set worked on over the years, and we feel confident in our assessment that despite the technical grade, this is the nicest 1964 Topps football set ever assembled, and certainly one of the nicest football sets ever assembled in the hobby. Yes, it's that good.
|
One of the most attractive football sets ever produced, the 1964 Topps issue features a bold, full-color image of each subject, set against a colorful background surrounded by small stars. The set, plagued by miscutting and centering issues, is very difficult to obtain in higher grades. The set, which features only AFL players, is oaded with tough short prints and HOFers. 1964 Topps football is a challenge, and a set of this magnitude coming to market is virtually unheard of.
|
This is a spectacular set. It contains an astonishing 41 cards graded PSA MINT 9, including many of the set's key cards. It also includes 19 cards graded NM-MT+ 8.5. All the rest of the cards have been graded NM-MT 8. A breakdown by grade is as follows: PSA MINT 9: #5 (Cappelletti), 16, 17, 23, 24, 31 (Lamonica), 33, 36, 37, 48, 55, 56, 57, 60, 68 (Blanda), 74, 81, 87, 90, 92, 95, 101, 103, 109, 112, 115, 118, 121 (Maynard), 130, 132, 135, 140, 141, 143, 144, 154 (Allen), 155 (Alworth), 156, 157, 164, 170. PSA NM-MT 8.5: #12, 14, 21, 25, 45, 59, 62, 64, 65, 73, 89, 93, 102, 116, 128, 133, 158, 160, 161.

In just over one year of doing business, Love of the Game has become known for descriptions that lack hyperbole. We prefer to describe things as they are, and explain why they are important. We save hyperbole for sets like this one. This is certainly one of the most attractive, high-grade sets you will ever see.

Commissions and Fur Affinity[edit]
|
Lupine Assassin was banned from Fur Affinity at the end of February 2009 for using money gleaned from others as a donation to purchase commissions.[2] He was banned at least twice after this incident.[citation needed] After joining SoFurry, he posted an apology for the incident on his journal there and on DeviantArt, and his offer to donate $500 to Fur Affinity, stating that he had "an addiction to art."[3] Comments to the post were largely derisive and concerned demands for refunds of donations.
|
It was discovered that Lupine Assassin had been creating other accounts on Fur Affinity in order to evade his block. At least five accounts were discovered and banned.[citation needed] At least one other user[who?] was banned for letting him use their side accounts.[citation needed]
|
Lupine Assassin said he would refund donations made to him,[2] As of September 2010, he claims all of the people had been paid back, but there are a few individuals[who?] who insist they have yet to receive repayment.[citation needed]
|
On February 23, 2014, Lupine Assassin's ban was lifted by Fur Affinity administrators.[4]
|
Lupine Assassin threatened FurAffinity with a DMCA, asking every drawing portraying his fursona to be deleted. Dragoneer had to remove every commission drawn for Lupine Assassin from the FA servers. Posting any drawing depicting Lupine Assassin is now a bannable offense. Lupine Assassin also threatened to legally sue Sciggles in order to get rid of a white werewolf character she created that looks like his fursona in inverted colors.
|
On June 6, 2010 Lupine Assassin announced that he was registered for and would be attending Anthrocon 2010.[5] A petition was started by Bryan Daniels in response to this with the promise that if the petition reached 100 signatures, he'd personally file a report against Lupine Assassin for abuse of government aid. The petition surpassed 100 signatures within 24 hours, ultimately receiving over 400 signatures.[6] Daniels filed an online submission to the New York City Bureau of Fraud Investigations the next day.[citation needed]

|
I was sad to learn that an acquaintance of mine, Rod Guthrie, had died recently. Rod was a talented and unusual fellow, an artist married to another artist. Carole is a member of my poetry group, and so I had occasion to meet her husband from time to time.
|
Our poetry group meets every couple of weeks at the home of one or another of us. We have a light supper before getting down to business. We take turns reading something we've written and critiquing each piece. Sometimes spouses join us for the meal, but they always disappear before the poetry session.
|
I always loved going to Carole's house because it was so inviting. Way out in the woods in Monson, cozy, comfortable, art everywhere--Carole's large, bright, non-representational canvases, and this one of Rod's, Love and Marriage and the Number 43. In the winter, hot soup and a blazing fire. Carole loved having us because Rod had developed a progressive neurological disorder. She was going out less and less as she began caring for him more and more.
|
Unlike the other spouses, Rod would sometimes sit in with us and read a piece he'd written. Not poetry, but excerpts from a memoir he was writing. He spun a pretty good tale, and between those pieces and our conversations, I learned a fair amount about him.
|
Rod was an industrial designer who had worked for a long time on Lionel trains, both as independent contractor and employee. His business was making model railroad kits; he also made exact reproductions of old firearms, and painted. It was unfortunate that someone so talented with his hands should end up with a disease that eventually made it impossible for him even to feed himself. But he was cheerful about his condition, and simply acquired assistive devices--like a hands-free TetraMouse for his computer--to be able to continue working.
|
His serene acceptance of his disease impressed me. Rod never tried to draw attention to himself. In fact, he was one of those rare people who really seemed to listen to others. When he'd struggle to turn a page, drop a fork, or spill his coffee, he'd make a joke of it.
|
I'd never known Rod before he was afflicted with ALS or whatever it was (he himself said doctors weren't sure), and I'd never seen him any other way but gentle and funny. It's easy to imagine, when someone makes something look easy, to believe it is easy. So I was surprised, at the last meeting I attended at the Guthries', to hear what he had to say on the the subject of his disease.
|
In that last piece, he detailed the stages of his disease, and the progression of his feelings. The disbelief, the anger, the self-pity...all the normal and inevitable stages of grief which have been so frequently chronicled. I listened in shock. Well, I remember thinking, Rod is human. Why did it never occur to you that all of this serenity had come at a hard-won price?
|
If you're going to write anything at all worth writing, it is going to shock and unsettle people. The whole point of art is to make connections for people that they have not been able to make for themselves, to give them a new way of looking at the world. That audience includes the artist himself, who's often as surprised as anyone at what he's ended up producing. Sometimes there's no social context for the expression of certain feelings or experiences. Art gives us that context.
|
I'm very sad that Rod has died. But I feel fortunate to have known him, and particularly fortunate to have been privileged to get a glimpse into a really private part of himself. Just another perk of hanging around artists and poets so much.
|

Thank you for sharing your memories of Mr. Guthrie. I never knew him except through Lionel trains and an article about him as published years ago in O Gauge Railroading magazine. That article suggested he was a sensitive individual and your post bears that out.
