Missy Hanner is the cafeteria manager at Lee Summit North (LSN) and Missouri's Manager of the Year. The staff together distributed over 400,000 meals since COVID closed down their district. She sees her role as “getting to know people around me, my team and the administration, trying to see what I can do to make things easier or better for them and to create a work environment that is pleasurable”. Each day, Hanner served about 75 students at an apartment complex and hundreds at the Lee’s Summit North parking lot, handing the pre-packed bags out at the bus and through car windows. “That was just my bus. My bus alone (did) about 1,000 meals (each day) when you think of breakfast and lunch,” Hanner said. As of June 3, Hanner’s bus had given out 44,828 breakfasts and lunches. Overall, the district gave out 233,858 meals in that time period.
Secretary Sonny Perdue is extending the waiver to allow LSN to feed all student breakfast and lunch free until Dec 31 or until funding allows.

Pink performing at the IZOD center in March 2013. A Superior Court judge in Toms River ruled an 11-year-old girl was not harmed by attending a Pink concert at the Prudential Center in December 2013. (Alex Remnick | The Star-Ledger)
TOMS RIVER — An 11-year-old girl was not harmed by going to a Pink concert and her attendance there isn't evidence of bad parenting, a family court judge in Ocean County said.
Quoting lines from the 1939 film 'Gone With the Wind' and referencing Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan, Superior Court Judge Lawrence R. Jones said
singer-songwriter Pink may have some suggestive moves and lyrics, but she's an artist whose works aren't necessarily inappropriate for pre-teens.
Jones, whose 37-page decision contained a brief history of rock-and-roll and a commentary on the increasing use of judges as referees for warring divorced parents, was asked to intervene in the case of a divorced couple arguing over their daughter's attendance of the Dec. 11, 2013, Pink concert at the Prudential Center in Newark.
In the complaint, girl's father sought to have Jones declare that the girl's mother abused her parental discretion by taking their daughter to the concert.
Jones noted in his decision that he spoke with the girl, who is now 12, out of the presence of her parents about her feelings on the concert and that he took into consideration the mother's reasoning for allowing her daughter to go.
The parents were not identified in court papers.
He said divorced parents often disagree about parenting styles and decisions of their former spouse, but a court would not get involved "so long as such choices do not unreasonably compromise the child's general health, safety and welfare."
Jones said the mother "in no way, shape or form exceeded the boundaries of reasonable parental judgment" in taking the girl, referred to as A.Z. in court papers, to the show during her own parenting time.
"Her decision did not subject the child to any unreasonable risk of harm, or compromise A.Z's health, safety or welfare," Jones wrote. "To the contrary, when all the smoke from the custody litigation clears, it will be self-evident that all which happened here is that a young girl went to her first rock concert with her mother and had a really great time."
Jones said decisions about whether concerts are appropriate for children are based on several factors, including the maturity level of the child, whether the songs are laced with profanities and whether they incite violent messages.
In his decision, Jones quoted the lyrics from Pink's songs "The Great Escape" and "Perfect" as examples of messages for young adolescents.

VeloClub is CyclingTips’ membership program which brings us closer to our members, and connects likeminded cycling enthusiasts.

Lappartient suggest TV analysis could help pinpoint hidden motors; Rowe says he could be one crash away from the end of his career; Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio on disappointments: ‘Everything happens for a reason’; Mitchelton-Scott signs U23 Gent-Wevelgem winner Hennessy; Bike use set to outnumber car journeys in London?; Video: Matt Keenan talks cycling safety; Video: CycloCross! The bike I race on and the pros and cons
The Michelton-Scott development team has signed talented 21-year-old British rider Jacob Hennessy to the squad for 2018, bringing the Briton on board. Hennessy won the Under 23 Gent Wevelgem in 2017, then took the opening stage and fifth overall in the A Travers les Hautes de France-Trophee Paris-Arras.
“I’m super excited to be joining Mitchelton-Scott for the 2018 season,” said Hennessy, speaking of Orica-Scott’s feeder team. “This year they have shown exactly how strong a team they are, especially with some of their riders moving up to the WorldTour next year and the success they have had in some big races.”
“I would love to be able to follow that progression and this is a great place to try and do that. Obviously I want to win as many races as possible and to achieve that I need to be more consistent and the aim is to try and maintain good form and consistency from January through to October. I I would love to be able to focus on some of the early season Spring Classics, I really enjoy that style of racing and I’m really motivated to do well.”
Sport director James Victor said that he will be an important addition to the squad. “Throughout 2017 Jacob showed his potential as a strong, fast finisher,” he stated. “He has been brought to the team to continue his development and also enhance our results and team profile through what we expect to be a busy 2018 season.”
The team has also announced that it is retaining Australian duo Sam Jenner and Harry Sweeny. Jenner won the national under 23 title in 2017 and was second on a stage of the An Post Rás, while Sweeny was 14th on the time trial stage of the Baby Giro.

RENO, Nev. -- People across the Truckee Meadows and other valleys on the eastern side of the Sierra woke up to a blanket of snow Saturday morning. This was the first measurable snow in many areas.
Saturday morning valley roadways were littered with car accidents. Some were minor inconveniences with nothing more significant than scratched bumpers; others sent people to the hospital or tied up traffic for hours.
The previous, unusually warm weather combined with Thursday's wind storms left some people with only one day to get fallen autumn leaves picked up before the snow fell.
In mountain communities, people reported getting several inches of snow in just a few hours on Saturday morning. Near the airport in Truckee, one person told KOLO 8 News Now that about six inches of snow accumulated between sun-up and about 10:30am.
Please check out our Winter Weather Resource Guide (link below). You can find the guide on the KOLO 8 News Now front page during wet, snowy, and cold weather, or at any time in our Hot Topics section.

Research links a coaching culture to engagement and revenue growth.
Strong coaching cultures are a growing trend—and they can benefit the entire organization. A 2017 study from Human Capital Institute and the International Coach Federation found that one in four organizations has a strong coaching culture, representing a nearly 50 percent increase from the findings in their 2016 study, which reported that 17 percent of organizations had such a culture.
The researchers defined a strong coaching culture as one that meets at least five of these six criteria:
- Employees value coaching.
- Senior executives value coaching.
- The organization has a dedicated line item budget for coaching.
- Coaching is available to all employees.
- Managers, leaders, or internal coaches receive accredited coach-specific training.
- All three coaching modalities (internal coach practitioners, external coach practitioners, and managers or leaders using coaching skills) are present in the organization.
This type of culture is linked to higher engagement and better financial performance. Organizations with a strong coaching culture have a larger percentage of highly engaged employees than other organizations (61 percent, compared with 53 percent). Additionally, 46 percent of organizations that reported having a strong coaching culture also said that their 2016 revenue growth was above that of their peers, compared with 39 percent of organizations without a strong coaching culture.
New managers also reap the benefits of a coaching-based culture. Survey respondents frequently cited coaching when asked to describe effective management styles, and they identified coaching and developing others as the most valuable skill for new managers. However, 64 percent of all organizations do not offer first-time people managers training on how to coach their teams, possibly forgoing an excellent opportunity to develop new managers.
Whether coaching is pervasive or not, organizations have several ways of using it to foster success. The study recommends making coaching available to employees of all ages and experience levels as a great way to promote a culture of engagement and performance.

This may seem a bit odd, but for everything that’s happening to you and around you, especially those that you have no control about, all you can ever do, is love yourself.
How? I hear you ask.
If you feel down, you raise yourself up. If you feel lost, you find yourself. If you feel depressed, you have to find reasons, ways, and methods on how you can get out of that rut. If you feel insecure, boost yourself up. If you feel unbeautiful, unhealthy, and unfit, start taking care of yourself better. If you feel challenged, master skills for yourself. If you feel competitive, make yourself worthy. If you feel alone, be your own friend. If you feel unstable, learn how to balance, and try to stand back up on your own two feet.
If you can at least do these things for yourself, a lot of your self-doubts, self-problems, self-loathe, and self-hate will disappear. And your self-esteem, self-confidence, self-independence, and self-reliance will shoot upwards.

I really like how Bandai handles the inner frame on the 1/100 scale Iron Blooded Orphans kits. On previous builds of the Barbatos, Grimgerde, and Schwalbe Graze, the experience left me with the thought “why doesn’t Bandai do them all like this?” The inner frames are nicely detailed, yet not so “part intensive” to induce fidliness. And the best part is painting, detailing, and weathering them is quite fun.
As a testimony to how much I like these kits, I’m not really a big fan of the overall designs. The feet seem way too big on most of them (except for the Grimgerde’s hilariously small feet), the high-heeled look seems to be 70’s throwback, and the proportions just generally seem weird. But the build of these kits is so nice, and provides so much fun, I eventually plan to build them all.
Initial Build Process
For the most part, the Bael’s inner frame can be fully built prior to painting and weathering. The arms, legs, head, torso and waist go together nicely, and don’t need to be disassembled to later hang the armor on it. I’d seen this when I’d first built the 1/100 Barbatos, which uses essentially the same inner frame.
A few inner frame sections are best left in smaller subassemblies or individual pieces. Parts of the foot, the backpack unit, weapons, and a few parts that hang from the waist fall into this category.
The key to finding the “sweet spot” is to determine what can be built that won’t require disassembly later. A thorough walk through of the instructions – helpfully broken down into the inner frame steps, and armor steps, will help you identify the distinctions.
A Scrape With Primer
On previous builds, I primed Gunpla inner frame parts with Badger’s Stynylrez Primer, and then followed that up with the paint colors chosen for the particular model. However, I have done it a bit different on this one.
Unless you glue them in a fixed pose, Bandai Gunpla kits are articulated – arms, legs, waist, and more all move along multiple points These can be simple things like single direction elbow bends, or more complex ball and socket joints that introduce multiple directions of movement.
In all of this movement, it’s possible for parts to scrape each other. Some areas can be planned for by trimming and sanding to avoid scrapes. But others may not have that flexibility.
And while the combination of Stynylrez and quality acrylics over it is very durable, I’ve always noticed quite a bit of paint scrape during the course of a build. Some can be put off as “weathering” certainly. But because I sell my work, I’m always concerned that the buyer may move it around with some frequency, which scrapes the paint right down to the bare plastic.
Have Your Primer And Paint It Too
On recent builds, I’ve been switching to lacquer based paints almost exclusively for airbrushing, and even some brush painting. As I’d picked up quite a few colors from the Mr. Color Gundam Color Series, I decided to employ them for this build. These paints are matched to many of the canon colors from the anime series. As lacquer paints, they have incredible “grip” – far better than even Badger’s Stynylrez Primer. Additionally, they seem to be very, very durable. While any paint can be scraped off of plastic, the lacquer paints so far have proven to be much more durable than the acrylic options I’d previously employed.
The color I chose was Gundam Color MS Phantom Gray (UG15), a darker gray color. If you’ve ever used Tamiya’s German Gray (XF-63), it’s very similar to that, though perhaps a slight bit darker. The key with the Gundam Color paints is they are pretty much spot-on canon colors. Just recently I painted a Real Grade Z’Gok. The two Gundam Color paints I used for Char’s Z’Gok were so perfectly matched to the Bandai plastic that the only way I could tell what had been painted was by the finish – the plastic was just a bit glossier. So if it’s canon colors you need, or just really good paint that fits the MSG universe, check them out.
I thinned the paint with Mr. Color Leveling Thinner, following my habit of judging it by visual check rather than a strict paint to thinner ratio. The paint was applied with a .3 airbrush. If you do paint the frame in assembled condition, be sure and move articulating parts around a bit to get full coverage.
The Demon Is In The Details
With the base color on the frame, I wanted to add in a few detail colors. The mobile suit’s outer armor will be mostly white, with a few blue touches here and there. I wanted the inner frame color to reinforce that, but to perhaps also add a few splashes of additional color as well.
I started with a drybrush of Vallejo Natural Steel. This not only helped pop out some detail, but also added a touch of weathering to the frame. My main reason for using this color rather than my “normal” Citadel Leadbelcher was simple. The Natural Steel paint has just the slightest hint of blue to it. I thought it would work well with the blue color featured on the rest of the suit.
A very prominent detail of the frame are the segmented tubes on the arms, legs, and torso. Additionally, there are some pistons on the frame in various places. Because I plan for the outer armor to be a bit more matte and weathered, I thought it might be interesting to let the inner skeleton be a little shinier and metallic. To prepare the way for later metallic colors, I painted the hoses and piston parts with Vallejo Sky Gray, to give a light undercoat for the metallics to follow.
Not Heavy, But Metal Nonetheless
For the segmented tube sections, I decided to use Ammo of Mig Warhead Metallic Blue. This is a very vivid blue color that really has a load of “punch” to it. For the piston sockets, I opted for Ammo Metallic Orange. I generally paint these red, but I decided on orange because it’s opposite blue on the color wheel. I felt it would fit nicely, and still give some hints of warm color shining amidst all of the cool blues present on most of the suit. The pistons themselves would get a coat of the VMC Natural Steel, and various disc-shaped elements on the joints were slated for Citadel’s Balthasar Gold, a nice bronze color.
I’ve brush painted the two Ammo metallic colors before, and I found that they seemed to work better when applied in a heavier fashion, using a dabbing motion. This allows a slight “thickness” of paint to be applied evenly, without brush strokes or “tearing the skin”. When it dries, the paint levels out nicely. It does take a while to be dry to the touch, and even longer to cure. Be prepared to set it aside for several hours, or even overnight.
The steel and bronze colors were thinned with a few drops of Vallejo Glaze medium, and some Vallejo Airbrush Flow Improver. A similar thick coat was applied like the Ammo products, but using more of a traditional paint stroke. By going heavier here, it allowed a solid wet coat to be applied, and once dry, it tightened down very nicely. I painted the pistons and a few other details on the inner frame with the steel, and the aforementioned discs were treated to the bronze color.
A Gentle Wash
The final step in the weathering for this stage of the build was to add a wash. While the frame’s overall color was still very dark, a wash would help restore shadows in areas that had received lighter paint, and thus help the detail stand out. I chose Citadel’s Nuln Oil Gloss. My thinking for this selection was twofold.
First, as I wanted the inner frame to retain a shinier, metallic look, the Gloss Nuln Oil would work with this goal. If I used standard Nuln Oil, which is matte, I’d need to go back and “shiny up” the areas that had been matted down.
My second reason factored in the effects that enamel thinners can have on Bandai plastic. Used on an open surface, where the thinner can evaporate quickly, doesn’t present a problem. However, if it gets into a joint on the model, or other areas that it might pool, it can shatter the plastic. Priming and painting does help some, but in my mind the risk is too high – especially if you are working fast, and don’t have time to be a bit more delicate.
Citadel’s Nuln Oil (matte and gloss) have worked very well for me, and seem to be very Bandai plastic friendly. While I’ve not pushed the theory by being overly messy, I’ve had no problems in its use.
Application was made with a #0 liner, being careful to generally stay “in the lines”.
A Fun Frame To Finish
With all the colors and washes applied, I assembled the basic frame parts. Even with only partial foot parts in place, the frame is very stable and can be posed. I really like the way it looks too, as it has a menacing “Terminator” look to it. By being a separate kit, in a sense, the armor is much easier to deal with and then “hang” on the frame later.
To say I’m enjoying a Bandai Gunpla kit is a bit redundant. I’ve enjoyed them all. But these IBO 1/100 scale kits really are something special. They’re not only fun to build, but are engineered it seems to get all the benefits of a master Grade kit, squeeze it into the simplicity of an RE/100, and come out with something very unique.
More like this Bandai, please! 🙂

Some Macs to Boot Mac OS 9 Through Mid-2003? Although Apple has not yet made a public statement, it seems some Macs that can boot into Mac OS 9 may remain available until mid-2003, contrary to Apple's announcement in September that new Macs would stop being able to boot Mac OS 9 in January of 2003.
According to News.com and MacCentral, Apple claims the move is for education users, who ostensibly are taking longer to move to Mac OS X than "the rest of us." Thus, Mac OS 9-capable Macs will reportedly include CRT-based iMacs, the eMac, and the iBook. It's not clear whether these systems will be available to the general public or just to education customers. However, Apple apparently also plans to continue selling a dual 1.25 GHz Power Mac G4 configuration which can boot into Mac OS 9 for professionals who need applications like QuarkXPress which aren't yet available for Mac OS X. (TidBITS confirmed that Quark has contacted some of its customers to inform them machines capable of booting Mac OS 9 will be available through mid-2003.) This high-end configuration is also of interest to music and audio professionals, most of whom have been unable to move to Mac OS X due to lack of drivers and host applications. [GD]

The Kenya National Youth Service will be carrying out recruitment across the country in the near future in hopes of drafting more than 26,000 youth by the end of the exercise.
This new number, set as a target by the office of the president, is a way of giving more youth the opportunity to fulfill their purpose by giving them a platform through which they can realize their potential. Before the service recruiting team goes out, the dates of recruitment are made public; indicating the time the team will visit each district in Kenya to select from among the young people who wish to offer themselves for recruitment.
The recruitment will be done twice a year, with an intake of about 13,000 young men and women each time. The training will take four months and the recruits who will have successfully finished their training will graduate every six months.Vacancies in each intake is allocated to every province, so that the Service receives recruits from every part of Kenya and is truly national in its composition.
This year’s recruitment will be done in a bid to give the youth, especially those out of jobs, a sense of purpose in their life and to give them a sense of loyalty to their country. After the training that instills discipline, commitment, and a feeling of duty in the recruits, the servicemen and women of the Kenya National Youth Service will offer their services for the good and development of our nation.
The recruitment is aimed at giving fresh high school graduates and young people in general, another option when it comes to employment and higher education. Through the National Youth Service, various technical skills such as masonry, dressmaking, and plumbing among others are taught, thus giving the youth a chance to be self-sufficient once the training is completed.
Also, due to the rise of insecurity in Kenya and the recruitment will be used to reduce the instances of the youth being drafted into vigilante and terrorist groups. Since the majority of the targets of radicalization are the young people, joining the Kenya National Youth Service will be great weapon in eliminating the occurrence of controversial groups within our country.

2.50 credit hours
This course is designed with three overarching objectives. The first is an emphasis on decision making in a broad range of market contexts. The second objective builds on the notion that decision making is dynamic; that is, market situations demand not just one good decision but a series of them as a situation unfolds (providing new and varied information for each subsequent decision). Integrating concepts from a number of the courses that you are taking concurrently into decision-making about markets is a final objective.

Protecting your property is important, and so is protecting your tenants. In Australia, landlords have safety obligations – these responsibilities may extend to real estate agents, property managers, and tenants. You can prevent an accident in your building by following our fire safety advice for landlords.
At Jim’s Fire Safety, our technicians have a certificate II in fire protection inspection and testing from the FPA Australia. We are one of Australia’s most trusted providers of fire equipment testing. Take a look at the rest of our blog for expert advice and get in touch with us if you have any questions.
Commercial Landlord Responsibilities
Are you leasing out a commercial space? Your responsibilities will vary on a case by case basis. A lot of your fire safety obligations will be determined by the lease agreement. You may provide and install fire safety equipment with the provision that it be regularly maintained by the tenant.
Structurally, you are obligated to make sure fire hazards are managed. There are also smoke alarm specific rules for rental properties. Consult with your lawyer and real estate agent if you have any concerns about your compliance.
Smoke Alarms in Rental Properties
Each state has different legislation for landlords and smoke alarms. You can find more general information about smoke alarms in different states, check out our smoke alarm testing page. For more specific fire safety advice for landlords, read on.
In nearly every Australian state, landlords are responsible for the installation of smoke alarms. If you fail to install your alarms according to state legislation and coding, you may face a large fine. The ramifications will vary based on the location of your property. If your property is located in the ACT, you are not required (as a landlord) to install or maintain smoke alarms – though it is highly recommended for the safety of your tenants and the protection of your property.
Smoke alarm legislation for installation and maintenance is regularly reviewed and improved my each state government. As this is the case, it is best to contact Jim’s Fire Safety for state specific information and advice.
Fire Safety Rules for Tenants
Now that we’ve covered some fire safety advice for landlords, you should familiarise yourself with your tenant obligations. This way, if you have someone living in your property (or the property you manage) you have all of your bases covered.
In mosts states, smoke alarm maintenance is the responsibility of the tenant. You need to make sure your tenants are regularly inspecting their fire alarms to ensure they are alerted during an emergency. Any fire safety equipment (such as blankets, hose reels, and extinguishers) that is supplied by the tenant must be inspected according to the intervals dictated by Australian standards. You can find out more about these intervals if you browse through our service pages.
If you need maintenance for any of your fire safety equipment, contact our team here at Jim’s Fire Safety today.

My name is John and I like to grow large tropical foliage plants.
It all started very innocently. I used to tend a small patio garden. You know the sort, 30 foot, mainly laid to concrete. It was manageable, a couple of narrow borders and a few pots. My gardening ambitions were limited to plants that flowered continuously.
One day I received my first packet of Canna seeds. There was no warning on the packet. I thought they would be just like other plants.
At first I thought I could handle it. I'll just keep a few, in pots. It wasn't long however before I wanted more. I did not just want more. I wanted them bigger, faster growing.
The next thing I knew we were moving house. Moving to a bigger garden. Before long it was bananas, palms, bamboo. The death knell was a trio of second-season Ensete Ventricosum. There was no going back. I was hooked for life. Hooked to tropical foliage plants.
Now I garden a zone 9, 100 foot, north facer. I've lost most of my friends. But to sit in the garden on a still August evening, surrounded by enormous plants that I've helped create, is quite a buzz.
Over the years I have experimented with various tropical foliage plants and other exotics. Some worked some didn't. This site explains the methods used to raise and look after my plants. This does not mean it is the only way of doing things, far from it, but it is what works for me.
As I said earlier, (in my dramatic opening paragraphs), I have an approximately 100 foot garden. The garden faces north. Save for a thin slice at the end of the garden, it is bathed in glorious shade during the winter months. I would classify the garden as zone 9. This indicates a minimum winter temperature of -7ºc.
So switch the telly off, cancel your gym membership and get out into the garden

“And she’s sure it’s the Toyman?” Batman asked as he piloted the sleek Batmobile through the sleeping streets of Gotham City. He conversed with his old friend Commissioner James W. Gordon through a hands-free speakerphone mounted in the dashboard, a special innovation he had designed.
“That’s what she says,” Gordon replied. “The security camera at the toll booth got a picture of the vehicle — a green 1985 Corolla. No clear shot of the driver or the license plate.”
“A Toy-ota,” Batman said dryly. “That would be him, all right.”
“Do you want to call in Superman?” Gordon asked. “Winslow P. Schott is his punching bag, after all.”
“No,” Batman replied. “If Toyman came to my city, he’ll have to deal with me.” What Batman didn’t tell his old friend was that Superman, as Clark Kent, was on a well-deserved weekend getaway with his fiancée, Kristin Wells. Batman wasn’t going to disturb him unnecessarily. “I’ll handle it, Jim. Batman out.” At the sound of the final two words, the automated phone broke the connection. “Batcave,” Batman said, as he turned the Batmobile down Finger Avenue.
In a moment an English voice, only slightly sleep-blurred, came through. “Yes, sir?” he asked.
“Alfred,” Batman said, “please run a check of computer records of all car rental companies in Metropolis. Find out who rented a 1985 Toyota Corolla, color green, in the past week.”
“Very good, sir,” said Alfred Pennyworth. “I should have the answer for you within ten minutes.”
As the Batmobile turned down Dozier Place, Batman saw two gangs of street punks battling each other. The mad-eyed youths attacked one another with broken bottles, short-bladed knives, and their own fists. “That should be just about right,” he said as the Batmobile braked to a stop.
Nine minutes later, dusting his hands, Batman returned to the Batmobile. “I have the information you requested, sir,” Alfred’s voice came through the speakerphone. “I am sending you the printout now.”
“Thank you, Alfred,” Batman said, settling into the driver’s seat. A thin strip of paper printed out from beneath the dashboard; Batman tore it off and brought it up to read. Only two green 1985 Corollas had been rented in Metropolis in the past week, one in the name of Bradley Parker. Batman smiled grimly. As long as these villains insisted on being cute, he would never have trouble finding them.
“Jim,” Batman said after reestablishing a voice link to police headquarters, “I have the license number of the car Toyman is driving. Please have your men look for it and notify me.” After he read the number to the commissioner, Batman added, “Oh, and there’s a cleanup on Dozier, near 66th.”
Fifteen minutes later, the Batman received a radio call from a patrol car that they had spotted the vehicle in question. It was on the outskirts of Gotham City, headed for the elite hills where grand mansions, monuments of an earlier time, dotted the landscape spaced far apart. Wayne Manor was one of these. There weren’t nearly so many now; most had been torn down as the occupants had lost their fortunes one way or another, or been converted into public museums or reclusive medical clinics and the like. In fact, Batman could think of only one other such mansion still in private ownership as a residence. He wondered if the Toyman could be headed there.
As he sent the Batmobile rocketing toward the area, Batman considered the Toyman’s motives. While awaiting the radio call and searching for the Corolla on his own, Batman had done a quick computer check of likely targets in Gotham City for the Toyman. He found none; no valuable antique toy exhibits, nothing like that. This puzzled him. Batman had never faced him in battle, but it was his understanding that the Toyman was a theme villain not unlike the sort he usually fought, slow to depart from his obsession.
As he neared the general area of the mansions, Batman put the Batmobile on silent running. The headlights cut out, replaced by an infrared display. There were no street lights out in this area; in the shadows of the night, the Batmobile would be nearly invisible.
In a very short time, Batman saw what he was searching for. The green Toyota came cruising across his path, driving slowly. Batman saw the driver’s head, turning this way and that, searching.
Batman nearly smiled. He’s lost!
Sure enough, the Corolla slowly braked to a halt at the side of the road, and the chubby man inside took out a piece of paper. A sudden fit of violent coughing shook him, then subsided, and he began to study the paper.
As the Batmobile door silently slid open, Batman almost felt sorry for his quarry. He never had a chance.
“Mawther Avenue… Mawther Avenue…” the Toyman muttered to himself as he scanned a map with the aid of a pencil-flashlight shaped like a miniature pogo-stick. “Why in the world can’t they have proper street signs out here in the sticks? Mawther…”
“Lost your way?” a stern voice at the Toyman’s side suddenly demanded, making the villain yelp with fright and drop his flashlight. He turned his head to face the speaker, and started in fear again.
“B-Batman!” he cried.
“The same,” Batman agreed. “You’re a long way from home, Mr. Schott. Come with me; I’ll help you get where you belong.”
Toyman tried to act defiant under his fear. “Y-you have no right to harass me, Batman! I-I’ve broken no laws!”
“No?” Batman asked. “When you left Draper’s Island, you didn’t exactly use the front door. And now you’ve crossed a state line. You’re a fugitive, Mr. Schott. I won’t even add the part about renting a car under a false name.”
“Y-you know about that?” Toyman stammered, impressed.
“Bradley Parker,” Batman confirmed. “Be more imaginative next time.”
“I’ll do that,” Toyman growled, suddenly flinging his hand in Batman’s direction. And the night erupted in a brilliant blaze of light.
Unaffected by the sudden glare, Batman yanked the Toyota‘s door open with his left hand and roughly hauled the Toyman out of the car with his right, in a single fluid motion that made the portly villain shriek with terror. The shriek turned into a coughing fit, then to whimpered sobs.
“Flash powder, Toyman?” Batman sneered as the whimpering villain cowered on the pavement. “I’m disappointed. No jack-in-the-box armed with submachine gun? No exploding yo-yo?”
“I-it was spur of the moment,” Toyman said, recovering his wits somewhat and climbing awkwardly to his feet. “I like the idea of the jack-in-the-box, though; I’ll have to use that someday. Why didn’t my flash blind you?”
“That would be telling,” Batman said, dismissing the question. No need to tell the Toyman about the polarized contact lenses he wore under his cowl. “Now, suppose you do some telling. What are you doing way out here?”
Toyman sighed a resigned sigh. “It’ll probably go better at my trial if I cooperate now. I was invited to come here, Batman.”
“Invited?” Batman asked, an eyebrow raising beneath his mask. “By whom?”
“I don’t know by whom,” Toyman continued. “I received an anonymous letter inviting me to come to 1955 Mawther Avenue to purchase a green kryptonite meteorite. Naturally, I was intrigued.”
“Kryptonite!” Batman exploded. This angered him. All kryptonite on Earth at the time had been transmuted into iron by a chain reaction years ago, but more meteorites had landed on Earth since, drawn through the space-warp created by the ship that brought his friend Superman to this planet.
“Oh, yes,” Toyman continued. “I had such grand plans for it — radio-controlled toy airplanes dropping kryptonite bombs, that sort of thing.”
“Well, you can forget those plans,” Batman snarled. “You and I are going to keep your little meeting. And your mysterious seller is going to jail right along with you!” Legislation had been passed, years ago, making the possession or sale of kryptonite a criminal offense. “Where did you say it was, again?”
“1955 Mawther Avenue,” Toyman replied.
Batman’s eyebrow raised again.
The Batmobile had halted about a block from the mansion. They got out and walked the rest of the way, Toyman in front, Batman behind.
“We go in slow,” Batman advised. “I’m not going to alert anyone to my presence until I have to; then again, I’m not letting you out of my sight.”
“Sir, yes, sir,” Toyman joked. Batman saw his hand stealing into the pocket of his pink-and-blue-striped coat; quickly, a powerful hand garbed in dark blue leather clamped down on Toyman’s wrist.
“Easy, easy!” Toyman said. “I was just getting the coin.”
“What coin?” Batman demanded. He relaxed his grip; Toyman produced a small, blank metal disk from his pocket.
“This came with the message,” Toyman said, holding it up for Batman to see. “Apparently, I need it to be admitted.”
Batman took the coin, turned it over in his fingers a couple of times. “Electronic,” he decided. “Probably opens some kind of automated lock.” He handed the disk back to Toyman. “Very well.”
Soon the unlikely duo were at the front steps of the mansion. It was dark and uninviting; no lights burned that were visible from outside. Toyman knocked on the door once, then gasped in surprise as the door slid open, all on its own.
“The electronic lock system,” Batman whispered. “It must have recognized the key coin.” Toyman nodded. He stepped across the threshhold; Batman slipped in quickly behind him, even as the door began to close. It must have been set to admit only one. When the door closed, the pair were in darkness, utter and black.
“Welcome, Winslow Schott,” a woman’s voice sounded from the darkness. “I’m so glad you could make it!”
“What is this?” Toyman demanded. “Turn on the lights! What’s going on?”
“I’m afraid I haven’t been quite honest with you,” the voice continued. “I have not brought you here to purchase kryptonite. You are here to pay for what you did!”
“What?” Toyman screamed. “What I — who are you? What is this?!”
“You are here,” the woman went on, “to be executed… for murder.”
“Murder?!” Toyman screamed, terror in his voice. “No! Th-this is crazy! Turn on the lights! Let me out!”
Batman, beside the frantic villain, contemplated the scene in silence. The voice was speaking only to Toyman; whoever controlled this house must not have been aware of his presence yet.
Suddenly, the lights blazed on. Toyman’s hands flew to his face to cover his eyes from the sudden glare; Batman, behind his polarized lenses, merely stared grimly.
“Look on the face of your victim, Toyman,” the woman’s voice said, from everywhere and nowhere. “Look at the boy you murdered!”
The room was filled with framed photographs of all sizes. The photographs all showed a boy at varying ages from about three to around twelve. In each photograph the boy was surrounded by large, expensive toys. As the boy in the photographs grew older, his expression grew less and less happy. In the photos where he looked the oldest, he was positively scowling.
Toyman looked from one photograph to the other, terror showing on his face. “Y-you’re insane!” he declared “I-I’ve never seen this boy bef–” Toyman fell silent as his eyes landed on one of the more recent photographs, the boy on the verge of his teens. “Oh, my God,” he whispered.
“Recognize him?” Batman asked.
“I-I think I do,” Toyman muttered, terrified. “B-but that’s incredible! H-his name was Nimball! J-Jack Nimball!”
“Nimball?” Batman asked, remembering the name from the Justice League files. “The man who took your place as Toyman, when you were supposedly reformed?”
“You didn’t really believe his name was ‘Jack B. Nimball,’ did you?” the voice accused. “As if any mother would name her son that! No, that was a name he adopted, when he turned his back on his family! The man you murdered, Winslow Schott, was Andrew Coleworth, Junior — my son! And I have brought you here to die for it!”
Toyman whimpered in fear.
Batman watched the Toyman’s terror with contempt. “I thought nobody wanted to trap you, except the good guys,” he said. Then he wondered why he had to get a dig in; he figured he had been spending too much time in the company of Green Arrow.
“P-please!” Toyman begged. “I-I didn’t know he was your son! I swear I didn’t! I-I didn’t mean — let me out! Please, let me out!”
“I was very young when I married old Andrew Coleworth,” the voice went on, as if Toyman had not spoken. “Less than half his age. I wanted money, fame, a place in society… and I took the easy way to get it. Nothing mattered to Andrew but his financial empire. When our son was born, I have to admit we both neglected him to pursue our own interests.”
“Madam, please,” Toyman whimpered, on the verge of tears.
“Andrew spent his every waking moment running his empire, acquiring more, ever more,” the voice continued. “And I lived only for the society parties, the personal appearances, the paparazzi. Our little boy was given every indulgence, rooms filled with expensive toys — everything a child could want, except the love of his parents.”
Behind the cowl of the Batman, Bruce Wayne’s jaw tightened. He had seen other wealthy children treated thus.
“At first, little Andrew loved his toys with a child’s love. But as he grew he began to resent them, saw them for what they were: replacements for a mother’s love, a father’s devotion. He realized that he had parents who saw him as little more than another toy. But we, wrapped up in our own cares, were oblivious to his needs, his desires.”
Screaming in terror, Toyman ran to the door and yanked at the knob, pounding on it with his fists. Another coughing fit shook him, but he remained steadfast in his determination to escape. His portly body shuddering with coughs, he continued to pound on the door. The voice droned on.
“As a man, young Andrew seemed determined to bring shame on his father, flunking out of one university after another. The big blowup finally came; seeing him as a threat to his empire, my husband denounced his own son and sent him away. For the first time, I realized what I had lost: my son. For possibly the first time, I truly loved my boy. I wanted him back. I pleaded with my husband to make peace with him. But I was just a toy to my husband, and he coldly pointed out that there were a dozen younger, prettier women ready to take my place. So I kept quiet after that. Shortly after, my husband died of a heart attack while shouting at his board of directors. I tried to get my son back; wrote him letters, hired private detectives, sent him checks that were returned uncashed. My little Andrew had turned his back on everything connected with his home.”
Batman listened intently. It was clear what he was dealing with. Now the problem would be getting out.
“Eventually, I heard of what Andrew had done,” the voice continued. “Changed his name to ‘Jack B. Nimball,’ of all things. Hired that disreputable Monitor person to provide him with special weapons. And, on your temporary retirement from crime, Mr. Schott, set out to make the objects that had come to symbolize his alienation from his family into the tools of a spectacular life of adventure and roguery. In short, Toyman, he became the new you.”
Toyman sank to his knees and rested his forehead against the door, sobbing with terror.
“But your retirement was short-lived, wasn’t it, Mr. Schott? And, when you decided to return to crime, so was my son — short-lived, that is. You snuffed out his life with a toy — a toy!” A pause. “And now, Mr. Schott, I am going to return the favor. The game has changed on you, Toyman, and I am writing the rules now.”

Not only do women have to contend with the gender pay gap at work, but workplace discrimination is apparent in the corner office, as well.
Last year, female executives around the world landed a measly 3% of the new CEO positions that opened even though the chief executive turnover rate was nearly 17%, according to a PwC analysis. At companies in the U.S. and Canada, things were even worse: Women made up fewer than 1% of the new CEOs brought on last year, the lowest number in the 16 years PwC has been conducting the study.
By Bloomberg's count, there was literally only a single woman promoted to the top spot in the entire United States last year: MSG Networks' Andrea Greenberg. What's more, the problem isn't limited to just new female CEOs. Women comprise only about one in five corporate board members, and they only run about 4% of companies in the S&P 500.
“Companies need to do more than they’re doing today to get talented women to be promoted to CEO,” PwC exec DeAnne Aguirre — stating the obvious — told Bloomberg.

Companies that had a rough year, like those in energy and materials, were more likely to replace their CEOs, but these are industries with longstanding reputations as boys' clubs, Aguirre pointed out.

Last week, my 72 year-old aunt who is living abroad visited me in Switzerland. Thanks to her I am finally starting to understand the power of Android.
It all started with her friend who saw a deal for a “free” Android tablet. He immediately jumped on it, not fully understanding that he just entered a two-year data plan. He told my aunt who rushed to the store to buy the same device. She understood the two-year contract and was a bit uneasy about it, but the recommendation of her friend was stronger.
Lesson #1: Manipulative promotions sell.
Lesson #2: Word-of-mouth is a massive driver of sales, and can even overwrite uneasy feelings towards the deal.
Now, after decades of buying daily newspapers, she stopped (!), and uses Google instead. She says that the cost-savings fully cover her data plan, so in the end she is not paying more than before.
Lesson #3: Newspapers are dead. Seriously.
When she thinks “Internet”, she thinks “Google”. The fact that it’s so prominently integrated into Android is Google’s secret weapon. She doesn’t have an email address and doesn’t care about apps (other than Camera and Gallery).
To download an app, I had to create an email address for her (not a great user experience by the way). She doesn’t even know her address and won’t use it.
Lesson #4: Email is not dead, but certainly needs to be complemented by Whatsapp, Messenger and similar apps. Businesses should start thinking about it.
Instead, I installed Facebook and Messenger, so we can stay in touch. Messenger is Facebook’s secret weapon, because it’s so deeply integrated. She doesn’t need any other communication app.
Lesson #5: Facebook, Messenger, Whatsapp, Twitter, Snapchat all don’t require an email address to sign up anymore. A phone number is enough. Businesses should start thinking about that.
Calls are now possible on Messenger and Whatsapp. Skype was absolutely gone from my top-of-mind. Never would I recommend Skype in such a circumstance. It’s been successfully disrupted from this segment!
The device only has 1 GB of space, so I had to delete many pre-installed apps to free up space. Pre-installed apps seem to be a solid business model on Android. And a great distribution channel for app owners.
Lesson #6: My aunt would have never figured all this out on her own. Don’t underestimate personal assistance and service! It unlocks a whole new user experience that would have not been possible without such help.
We just launched our Android app for Exsila, and I was using a Samsung Galaxy S5 for testing. For a long time I have been using a Galaxy S3 for testing and had trouble to get adjusted to Android.
Now with a solid device, and the experience with my aunt, I am slowly falling in love with Android. It’s a solid platform, especially for the low-end of the market. And of course I sold my old Galaxy S3 on Exsila — for in fact a much higher price than I would have gotten elsewhere. This is the secret power of Exsila!

Sunscreens work either by absorbing ultraviolet light before it reaches the skin or by reflecting light away from it. SPF, the familiar measurement of most sunscreens, refers to the level of protection against UVB rays. Sunscreens with SPF 15 or 30 block 93% and 96.7% of UVB light, respectively. Dermatologists recommend blocks with a high SPF and ingredients such as Parsol 1789, titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, which offer protection against a broader spectrum of light, including dangerous UVA and UVB rays.
Sunscreen should be applied 30 minutes before sun exposure and reapplied every two hours. Factor in perspiration, temperature, humidity and time spent in the water and even more frequent reapplication is necessary even if the product is "waterproof". The Journal of American Academy of Dermatology reported recently that most people don't apply enough sunscreen to reach the level of SPF listed on the label: the best bet is to opt for SPF 30 to ensure that you are getting effective coverage. To further maximize your protection, avoid direct sunlight during 10am and 4pm and wear a hat with a wide brim or clothes of woven fabrics scientifically designed to minimize UV absorption.

CBD oil has numerous restorative advantages that can be useful to treat and fix side effects of uneasiness, epilepsy and malignant growth. Broad examinations by research networks have advanced different clinical and helpful employments of the CBD oil lately. The Cannabis plant is likewise known to contain tetra hydro cannabinol or THC which is known to incite or give a high to its purchasers. Be that as it may, CBD oil may contain truth be told, unimportant follow measures of THC which do not bring on any injurious impacts on people. CBD goodnight drops or cannabidiol is gotten from the Cannabis plant. Consequently it is very safe for clients.
All human body frameworks are novel in their manner. Every individual may react or respond diversely to CBD oils. What might be advantageous to one probably would not be of incredible use to another. So while picking the best CBD oil for tension break, it is strongly suggested that customers should evaluate the one generally fit to their requirements and get acquainted with the positive and negative impacts. We as a whole know about the reality what it seems like to worry before a test or significant occasion. On the off chance that that approaching feeling of debacle is ceaseless it is an indication of persistent tension, and you may require an interruption to reset your gauge pressure reaction. However, at times critical work, family requests, or simply existing the surprising occasions of life can feel like a ceaseless test.
Is the item esteem for cash?
CBD oil is for the most part sold in jugs and their costs are dictated by per milligram of the item. While purchasing the best CBD oil, clients should remember certain elements so they are not tricked into purchasing some unacceptable item. So clients ought to consistently search for organizations giving greater amount of the item in lesser costs without settling on the quality.
Shockingly, the clinical framework’s goal to tension misses the mark for some individuals. On the off chance that you flail wildly with persistent pressure or nervousness, you might be thinking about enhancing your treatment for tension with CBD oil or with CBD chewy candies. Yet, what’s the proof that CBD works?
The rising notoriety of CBD items as against uneasiness supplements is supported with a lot of powerful exploration, however there’s as yet far to go. A few logical preliminaries with people are at present in progress, yet there is as of now great proof of CBD’s accommodation for:
- Social nervousness issue
- Generalized nervousness problem
- Panic issue
- Obsessive-habitual confusion OCD

Abstract Vision & Elite Electronic - Kinetic / BlossomASOT189 - May 21st, 2012
Russia's sent 2 of its musical masterminds, Michael Filimonov and Vyacheslav Romashkin, to get the world to dance. Abstract Vision and Elite Electronic unite on the electrifying sounds of 'Kinetic' and 'Blossom'.
'Kinetic' and 'Blossom' were already given a warm welcome by Armin van Buuren, who featured the tracks on his 'A State of Trance 2012' album. With the energy high up and the bass hitting in hard, 'Kinetic' is the type of tune that can make a ten-thousand strong crowd go wild. A trancy core, techy outlines and a warm melody weaved in, make this one an absolute winner.
'Blossom' is the big sister and B-side to this strong E.P.. Its emotionally loaded break and strong melody will make this a tune you'd have stuck on replay before you know it.

I've been lost, I try not to be, but it's hard.
the vacations already start, I though it'll be good, but I just feel even more lonelier.
alone with 'grey's anatomy', books, photography and tons of tea and sweets.
i wish i could go to some coffee-bar spend some time, meet someone and be fine and happy. but I know that won't happen, so for now I just content myself with a travel to the supermarket.
maybe i take some interesting pictures by the way but, for that I've got to get lost first.
humm, I think my period is coming.

The 80's cult classic is set for a TV remake, with the reboot set to air on ABC, with Abigail Breslin starring in it as Baby, according to TheWrap. Lionsgate TV's new Dirty Dancing will be three hours long and adapted from the 1987 flick starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey.
There's no word yet on when it will (or start shooting), but Abigail couldn't wait to share the news with fans. After it was announced, the Scream Queens star hit Twitter, writing, "So excited to finally be able to tell you I'm playing Baby!
There have been rumors for a while that there would be a Dirty Dancing remake coming soon, especially after a Lionsgate-backed miniseries was set to begin shooting in North Carolina, according to Today. But, that was canceled in July.

with [director] Marcus Nispel and he's great. Nothing like I ever expected.

- AP testing will be by subject and scheduled May 1-12. schedule
- MAP testing for K-8 will take place April 24 – May 12.
We encourage parents to have their students take any state or district assessments. Each student/parent who chooses to opt out of an assessment, not only negatively impacts our school ranking but also deprives us of an important piece of data that we can use to improve student achievement. Consequently, we are asking all families to take our testing very seriously and to commit to our school improvement process by participating in each assessment that we administer.The opt out process can be found on our school website, skyviewacademy.org under the State Mandated Testing tab at the bottom of the page. If you have any questions concerning testing or opting out, please contact Paula Harrison email@example.com.
Here is a link to the CDE parent resource page. There is helpful information for parents concerning the PARCC and CMAS testing. http://www.cde.state.co.us/communications/resourcesforparents

|Watercolor base complete. Next, I use colored pencils to add the print and make it come to life.|
It was fun to go back to familiar territory: illustration for the home-sewing industry, my bread and butter income over the past 25-or-so years. Except that the last few years have really been s-l-o-w for me. I used to get hired to do maybe 8 to 10 illustrations a month, sometimes more...now I'm lucky to get a few jobs a year! The industry is changing, relying on quick and cheap photography more and more, plus there is just a decline in home-sewing in general. But I still love to do the artwork when I get the chance!

New Campaign Launches to End Impaired Driving: “Drive Like You Give a #&%!”
Impaired driving is dumb driving. I don’t want to share the road with impaired drivers and neither do you.
As the holiday season approaches, I’m proud to launch a new campaign designed to end impaired driving, “Drive Like You Give a #&%!” The campaign stars yours truly as Captain of the “Responsible Driving Enforcement Agency” and my rookie, Officer Julia Vasquez. Together we book four impaired driving offenders who were caught driving drunk, distracted, drugged, and drowsy. Some of our offenders’ behaviors behind the wheel may surprise you.
Many of you know about my commitment towards the dedicated men and women who serve in law enforcement. It is a serious business. I’m a reserve police officer myself. I know first-hand that driving impaired takes many forms and risky behaviors often travel together. None of the dangerous driving behaviors depicted in the new campaign are funny. Yet, humor resonates with young people and that’s who we’re trying to reach here. I hope those of you who are closer to my age aren’t offended by a few beeps here and there.
In 2016, males between the ages of 21 and 29 accounted for 21 percent of all traffic fatalities involving males. Male drunk drivers were 1.5 times more likely than female drunk drivers to be involved in a fatal crash. Young men in their twenties also accounted for 21 percent of all drunk driving fatalities in 2016. These statistics show that young males are responsible for a disproportionate share of impaired driving-related crashes, leading us to target this demographic specifically in the no-nonsense, attention-grabbing campaign.
Please share this campaign with the young adults in your life, and have a safe and joyous Holiday Season.
Stay safe and be smart.

• Miguna swore in Raila as the People's President after he lost the August 2017 presidential election to retired president Uhuru Kenyatta.
• Following the swearing in, he was then arrested and deported to Canada where he stayed for slightly over four years. All his attempts to return to Kenya failed.
Lawyer Miguna Miguna has said he will not be available to swear in Raila Odinga as the 'People's President' for the second time.
Miguna also said he is not prepared to help the opposition leaders to urge their supporters not to recognise William Ruto as the legitimate President of Kenya.
He further accused Raila of conmanship, insisting that this time around, the former Prime minister is on his own.
Miguna's remarks follow Raila's announcement during the Kamukunji rally on Monday that Ruto rigged the August 9, 2022 presidential poll.
"We do not recognise the Kenya Kwanza administration as a legitimate government and Ruto as the president or any official in his government," Raila said.
Please tell conman @RailaOdinga that General @MigunaMiguna isn’t available to swear him in as the People’s President, nor am I prepared to help him boycott or resist the DULY-ELECTED President of the Republic of Kenya. The cowardly and treacherous conman is on his own!— Dr. Miguna Miguna (@MigunaMiguna) January 25, 2023
In a hard-hitting statement, Raila also called on Kenyans to reject the promises made by the government saying it is resorting to despondency.
"We are asking Kenyans to resist the punitive taxes on common products by this regime," he said.
The Azimio leader further said a forensic audit of the IEBC results must be undertaken and that it is unnegotiable.
Raila also affirmed the revelations by a 'whistleblower' that they won by over two million votes.
"Since August 15, we have conducted our investigations and we are convinced we were robbed of our victory...our opponents beat us only in some regions in the Rift Valley," he said.
Miguna swore in Raila as the People's President after he lost the August 2017 presidential election to retired president Uhuru Kenyatta.
Following the swearing in, he was then arrested and deported to Canada where he stayed for slightly over four years. All his attempts to return to Kenya failed.
The deportation and the handshake between Uhuru and Raila led to the fallout with Miguna, who has since accused the former PM of neglecting his people and insisted focusing on his individual interests.

10:52 a.m.C'mon ... can't we get more than a few flakes? Mason and I were so excited to look outside this morning to see snowflakes falling. Surprise, surprise ... they only lasted for a matter of minutes and then we had blue skies and sunshine. Seriously? Mason is just itching to have some snow to play with. I am so sad for him since I grew up in the midwest, where we had no shortage of snow to play with. Hopefully soon, son, hopefully soon.

Natural Cleft Stone finish is associated with stones that have natural layers within them. This finish occurs very naturally when the layers of stone are quarried. This finish occurs mainly in materials like slate and limestone. The main characteristics of this stone are –
- This is a very natural and rustic matte finish.
- Each piece of stone has its unique pattern and textures and no two stone slabs pieces are same. Hence while laying the stone there will be imperfections and no uniformity between any of the slabs.
- The tiles are naturally anti-skid and anti-slip. They are preferred in wet areas like swimming pool decks etc.
- The stone surface is slightly uneven and not smooth.
- It is a comparatively cheaper form of finish as it is available in the natural form with minimum human intervention. No further processing of the surface is required as in other stone finishes.
The stone is widely used as a paving stone and as an outdoor building cladding material. The various patterns, undulations and imperfections in natural cleft stone make it a very interesting building material with good aesthetic value.

Steve from Mustang Club of America Discusses the Ford Mustang Fox Body Platform with Heacock Classic
Thursday September 24, 2020
Fri Sep 23
For the last event of the expanded West Coast schedule, SVRA has partnered with the San Diego Fleet Week Foundation for the 19th annual Fleet Week Coronado Speed Festival. The weekend features three days of vintage racing, car shows, and military displays staged on the runways of Naval Air Station North Island.
The festival is the premier event of the Fleet Week activities and is both a base “open house” and tribute to all branches of the military located in San Diego. The twisty 1.7 mile course utilizes runways and taxiways of the North Island Naval Air Station and provides a unique challenge for competitors as well as exciting racing for the spectators. In addition, a special Feature Race for NASCAR stock cars is certain to be highlight of the weekend. This unique event has become a very popular Vintage event and SVRA is committed to making the 2016 Festival a vibrant part of the celebration.
Details on other Fleet Week events, ticket prices, and daily schedules will also be available shortly at: https://www.fleetweeksandiego.org. Visit www.svra.com for further details.

What happens when a spouse contributes or loans separate property to the community estate during marriage, then seeks reimbursement of those contributions/loans at divorce?
The recent case of Hinton v. Burns out of the Dallas Court of Appeals sheds light on how this is handled. In Hinton, Husband and Wife both brought separate property assets into the marriage. Husband had a separate property business and inheritance, and Wife had a separate property residence. During the marriage, Husband contributed all of his inheritance to the community estate and it was spent on community expenses. Additionally, Husband’s separate property business made a loan to the community estate. Husband sought reimbursement to his separate property estate from the community estate during the divorce for these contributions. Meanwhile, during the divorce, Wife moved into her separate property residence and established it as her homestead. This residence was confirmed as her separate property during the divorce.
The trial judge found in favor of Husband in his reimbursement claims and awarded judgment in favor of the separate estate and against the community estate for the reimbursement claim. The trial judge then split the reimbursement judgment in half and ordered half of the claim to be borne by Wife in the division of the marital estate. Unfortunately, the trial judge also ordered that the judgment be secured against "all of Wife’s property" including her separate property homestead residence.
Wife appealed, complaining that the trial court erred by imposing the lien against her separate property, and especially against her homestead.
The Dallas Court of Appeals agreed with Wife for two reasons. First, Wife’s separate estate did not benefit from the contributions made by Husband’s separate estate to the community estate so a lien against Wife’s separate estate was improper. Texas Family Code Section 3.406(a) provides that “[o]n dissolution of a marriage, the court may impose an equitable lien on the property of a benefited marital estate to secure a claim for reimbursement against that property by a contributing marital estate.” Thus, the lien was only proper against the community estate which benefited, and not against the Wife’s separate estate. Second, the Texas Constitution prohibits imposing a lien against a homestead except under certain, limited circumstances. This situation failed to come within the exceptions and so the lien was constitutionally prohibited. Thus, the only lien permissible here was the lien imposed against Wife’s portion of the community estate.

Shrikrishnadas Jajoo Grameen Seva Mahavidyalaya (SJGSM) is the only college in the state of Maharashtra to run a degree programme in Rural Services. By very definition the B.A.(Rural Services) programme is meant for rural youth with a view to train them for rural development. Situated at Pipri-Wardha and in the vicinity of Sevagram and Pawnar, the College not only strives to practice the principles of Gandhi and Vinoba, but also to preserve the inherent rural ethos of the programme.The college is fast emerging as the centre for rural development activity owing to its links with the adjoining villages through Community Development and Extension which is the core of B.A.(Rural Services) course and which distinguishes this course from the traditional B.A. course. In terms of Community Development and Extension, our students get first hand experience and training in the field of agriculture and farming, environment, water conservation, Vermiculture, Sericulture, Horticulture projects, health & hygiene, rural and cottage industries, SHGs, cleanliness etc. The course thus not only qualifies our students for serious rural development activities but also enables them to pursue other courses and jobs through the study of such subjects as English, Marathi, Economics, Community Development and Extension, Sociology, Cooperation, English Literature, Marathi Literature.

KISSIMMEE, Fla., October 3, 2018 – Kissimmee Utility Authority president and general manager James C. Welsh on Tuesday announced his plans for retirement, effective March 31, 2019. He will continue as CEO while the utility’s board of directors conducts a search for his successor.
Welsh has served as head of the electric utility since 1982, guiding it through the most significant period of growth in its 117-year history.
During his tenure, Welsh has overseen the expansion of the utility from 85 employees and 18,000 customers to nearly 300 employees and 74,000 customers, becoming the sixth-largest municipal electric utility in Florida. Under his leadership, KUA has been honored for customer service, reliability, workplace safety, training, storm restoration efforts, system improvement, financial reporting, environmental stewardship, community outreach, employee development and communications.
“It’s been a tremendous privilege to lead this organization over the past three and a half decades,” said Welsh. “I am grateful for the many people who have supported me along the way, including, my family, friends, business and community leaders, and everyone here at KUA.”
Welsh is a registered professional engineer and had 11 years of electric utility experience in Pennsylvania, Colorado and Kentucky before assuming management responsibility for Kissimmee’s utility.
Welsh served on the Florida Municipal Power Agency board of directors from 1982-2014, the American Public Power Association board of directors from 1997 to 2003, and as president of the statewide Florida Municipal Electric Association in 1995-1996.
He is a past recipient of APPA’s James D. Donovan Individual Achievement Award. His leadership also led the utility to earn the utility industry’s highest national honor in 2016: APPA’s E.F. Scattergood System Achievement Award.
The utility board will hold a special meeting on November 5 to review the planned recruitment process.
Founded in 1901, KUA is Florida’s sixth largest community-owned utility powering 74,000 customers in Osceola County, Fla. For more information, visit https://kua.com.

New pictures of the LG Optimus G Nexus leak, plus specs and a camera sample
0. phoneArena 10 Oct 2012, 02:02 posted on
Google apparently wants its Nexus stable to be more reliant on cloud storage than manufacturers themselves usually do, but let's see a launch announcement and pricing, and then we'll talk whether 8GB is decent or not, since it might have just wanted to keep the device affordable...

As I promised earlier, here are more photos on our new sprayhood and cockpit extension/tent, which were made by a company called Juha Lahtonen Oy from Turku. We chose the dark blue fabric for the sprayhood and tent over the natural white/stone coloured fabric, which was another potential option in discussions. Lighter fabric would have definitely given more natural light inside the tent, but as we decided to go with the blue fabric, we ordered the tent with big windows instead. The decision was purely based on aesthetics, since in my opinion, the dark blue sprayhood adds more character in the looks of the HR 29.
Storing the tent when it is not in use required some thinking, so that it would not be in the way of the tiller, autopilot or the windvane steering lines. Thus, we decided to store it on the tent arch, which is fixed to backstay in 45 degrees angle. Setting up the tent takes only a few minutes from the storage.
In general, we are very pleased with the overall quality of the product, since the tent fits perfectly. After about one week of daily use, we have been repeating many times: Why did we not order the tent two years ago? Since having it, we have basically had every evening dinner and breakfast in the cockpit, although it has sometimes been chilly, windy or even rainy. On the other hand, in Karlby the sun was shining a bit too strongly, so we used the tent, with side rolled up, as a bimini. I think that this is an important quality to include in the tent.

Aniekan Ekpo and Michael Matthew
The Breaking News is that Akwa Ibom, the land of our birth is in a grand deception. We keep fragmenting our polity on the monstrous paucity of ethnicity.
Good governance does not understand ibibio, annang or oro.
Don’t excuse your clueless and blurred leadership on the corridors of dubious endorsement by the 4th largest ethnic configuration – ibibios.
The salvation of our state – Akwa Ibom is the common business of us all. In the famous succinct, but paraphrased of Thomas Paine” these are the times that try men’s souls. The labours of our heroes past who were the merchants of light in the likes of Sir Justice Udo Udoma, Bassey Adiaha Attah, Eyo Uyo, Ibanga Akpabio , Udonkim, Umoren, Nyong Essien, Sampson Udoidiong and co. were not triumph on the altar of fake and staged – managed wholesome acceptance. It came out of genuine,consistent and lawfully pursued , with zeal, patience and commitment. The realistic zeal for the socio political, economic and financial emancipation of our people – Akwa Ibom State was objective.
Poor leadership like hell, no matter how juicy the consolation, can never equate the triumph of visionary and articulate delivery of dividends of democracy. In over 2 years as a governor, no people friendly project(s) can readily be identified in your government.
We cannot justify the merits of today’s celebration without some knowledge of the metaphysics of the people which is indispensable for an understanding of the traditional institutions and their philosophy. Many of these institutions and much of the philosophy in them were ( and still are ) deeply entrenched in the people’s metaphysics ; vis a vis people’s belief system……which dwells on super sensibility inhabited by a Supreme being – God.
The petitions, prayers, sacrifices, offerings and devotions are addressed and directed to God. Therefore, all venerations of the people on bad governance are all unto him. Better LEADERSHIP have too much force than too little congregations in the name of GRAND DECEPTION ” for a clueless governor. Let’s have a RETHINK.
There is nothing wrong in a civic reception for a leader who has put down a legacy. The heart that feels not the clueless qualities of Udom Emmanuel is dead. What will he be remembered for ? The toothpick factory ? Oh ! Or the Armoured Tank Factory that died as soon as the ground breaking ? Or The Peacock Factory whose products are not seen in the markets but only on billboards ? Or The infamous Akwa Prime Hatchery & Poultry Ltd ?
Spare a moment to reflect on all the profligacy of this failed government and justify without timidity. Ultimate results emanates from teamwork just like the football game and for Akwa ESOP Imaisong ( an umbrella sociocultural group of Ibibio) to be continually celebrating ” an ineffective leader daggers the sacrifices of the founding fathers and drips history with blood. The deed of one visionary leader in Akwa Ibom lives forever in the canals of history. Why celebrate a man who has rendered sons and daughters of Akwa Ibom jobless through his exclusive patronage of Zenith Bank plc at the detriment of others. Imposition kills party, kills happiness, kills democracy.
There are fickle men with dead souls who can sell their mother for peanuts. They are afraid to stand for the truth and tell Mr. Udom Emmanuel what should be told……even if he offends them. Even those who have something to hoot about are scared stiff and shrinking ; they only gossip in undertones.
Why shouldn’t we drag the attention of the indigenes ,if there be in us a true force of character towards the general good of Akwa Ibom State ?????
Why shouldn’t we do that to liberate and please our oppressed, suppressed,depressed, and distressed sons and daughters of Akwa Ibom in the midst of being the highest revenue allocation earner in Nigeria.
The arise to the fate of greatness” Dakkaada” fuss is all about fraud. A French writer noted that ” more men are guilty of treachery through weakness than any studied design to betray” why can’t Akwa Ibom men strengthen themselves against temptation for crumps and demonstrate that its self discipline that proofs their mettle beyond ethnic boundaries.
The setting ablaze of a rebranded 2007 Sonata Hyundai saloon car with Dakkaada leprous logo by aggrieved youth over the failed government of Udom Emmanuel lays credence to the cries of the people over the insensitivity of his government. There is so much hunger in the land , but yet everything about him is window dressing
What really are we celebrating…….? Only time go open fowl yash.

‘Picard’: Patrick Stewart Returns in First Trailer for ‘Star Trek’ Series
During Star Trek‘s panel at Comic-Con Saturday, the franchise unveiled its first full look at Picard, the Next Generation revival focused on Patrick Stewart’s beloved Enterprise captain Jean-Luc Picard.
The series marks Stewart’s first time reprising the role since 2002’s big screen Star Trek: Nemesis. Picking up 20 years after the events of that film, Picard finds the since-retired captain enduring an ordinary domestic life until he meets a young girl with uncanny powers.
“I have encountered a woman, she came to me for help. If she is who I think she is, she’s in serious danger,” Picard says in the trailer.
In addition to introducing a new crew, Picard will feature some memorable faces from the Star Trek universe: Brent Spiner’s Data and Jeri Ryan’s Star Trek: Voyager character Seven of Nine both appear in the trailer, while the Comic-Con panel confirmed that Next Generation vets like Jonathan Frakes (Riker) and Marina Sirtis (Troi) will also return in some capacity.
“We never know, do we, when our best moment will be. And that is now,” Stewart added of the series during the Comic-Con panel.
Star Trek: Picard, like Star Trek: Discovery and the upcoming animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks, is bound for CBS All Access beginning 2020. Novelist Michael Chabon serves as showrunner for Picard’s 10-episode first season.

Sandy is an Investment Partner at Ethos Partners. He joined Julian and Brian in June 2017 following nine years in private equity investing, entrepreneurship and strategy consulting.
He first scratched a lifelong entrepreneurial itch in 2013 when he co-founded a private equity-backed dental business, The Dental Partnership, where he was Finance Director.
He commenced his private equity career in 2011 with Canter Equity Partners, where he focused on growth buyout and buy and build investments to support UK-headquartered technology and business services companies. Immediately prior to joining Ethos, Sandy spent three years as Strategy and M&A Director of the Redeem Group where he was responsible for leading Redeem’s strategic function and international M&A activities. Other previous roles include two years as a strategy consultant with A.T. Kearney consulting across multiple sectors in the UK and continental Europe.
Sandy holds an MBA, with a concentration in Private Equity, from London Business School and a LLB (dual Hons in Law and Economics) from the University of Edinburgh.

Our art assignment from last week was simple...to just play. I enjoyed the process so much and plan on making this a regular part of my art experience. These are the lists I made Friday. I have my Art "To-Do's" on the left and the Stories I want to share on the right. In my art I think that's where I've been missing the boat...instead of just sitting down and painting, gluing and winging it...I want to begin really thinking about the Story I want to tell. It makes all the difference.
I created this background with my dreams of hosting an art retreat in mind. I wanted this to be extra messy and artsy...I am so happy with the results!
My sweet husband means the world to me....I had our relationship in mind when I did this one.
I tend to work best when I focus on one type of process at a time. If I'm in the mood for backgrounds then I'll create just backgrounds. Other times I may feel like putting images and words in my journals or work on my Brave Girls. When I work this way I find it's easier to just "go" with my creative moods rather than force it.
The main project I worked on over the weekend was my SMASH book. I had purchased one with a few embellishments in January but hadn't figured out what to do with it. But then my dear friend Maggie began using hers for our Mind.Body.Soul class and I kept thinking about MY book and wanted so badly to use it. Here is what I've come up with...
This is the opening page..."Here is a little bit about me". I plan on writing a few interesting things about my life right this very minute...my loves, my struggles, what my life looks like right now.
A few pages later is the section called "My Year of Story".
This is the place for all those stories I am anxious to share on my blog, in my art, my book and maybe one day my column on some blog or in a magazine.
Section 3 is all about I am going to become Whole again.
"How I am going to become ME again. Whole and Happy and Fulfilled."
There is another section all about Self Care. This is the place I will write down all those things I can do to relax and unwind...little reminders of things I can do to take the very best care of ME.
I couldn't have a SMASH book without a place for recipes. I ADORE cooking! Seriously...I secretly want to have my own show:)
Most of the ideas I have for my life involve art, writing, uplifting and inspiring ways to share my heart, etc. This is the biggest section of my book.
All my Dreams go here...
SMASH Books are just so darn cool, aren't they??
So that was a peek of my Play Day. Not only was it fun to just let go but it refreshed my soul and left me wanting to create more.
You cannot dream yourself
into a character;
you must hammer
and forge yourself
Remember, Girls...you are never, ever behind! I will keep every assignment on my blog so you'll be able to complete this anytime. I appreciate each one of you. Thank you for playing along!!
I have decided to post our next assignment on Wednesday rather than today. Then later in the week we have a special tutorial for your journals from my friend Andria. You won't want to miss it.

In an age of internet dating and cross-country romances, Canadian immigration officials are further scrutinizing applications for spousal sponsorship.
Assessing the legitimacy of a marriage can be a cumbersome task, especially for Canadian immigration officials working in countries where arranged marriages are commonplace, such as Pakistan or Afghanistan. These cases are particularly difficult, as a significant number of these arranged marriages are conducted over the internet via webcam or by telephone. Pat O’Brien, program manager at the High Commission of Canada in Islamabad, says as many as 40% of the cases seen in his office involve long-distance weddings.
For Canadian immigration officials looking to distinguish the bona fide relationships from the fraudulent, an additional challenge is posed by the rising popularity of online dating. As Canadians log onto to various dating sites and chat rooms, romantic relationships can evolve with non-Canadian citizens. While Canadians might genuinely be looking for love, immigration officers fear they may be targeted by foreign nationals seeking Canadian permanent residency through marriage to a Canadian citizen.
In an attempt to better evaluate sponsorship applications, Citizenship and Immigration Canada has recently decreased the criteria needed for officials to dismiss an application based on a “bad faith” relationship. As of September 2010, immigration officers need only prove that Canadian immigration status was the primary purpose of the marriage or that the relationship is not genuine to reject an application. Under previous regulation, officials needed to prove that both of these criteria were met.
This ease in criteria has recently helped a judge uphold the decision to deny a Canadian man’s attempt to sponsor his Chinese wife whom he met online. The man from Kitchener, Ontario appealed the case after an immigration official concluded that the marriage was entered in for immigration purposes. The judge upheld the decision as despite the man’s bi-annual trips to China and copies of email correspondence, the wife made no attempts to learn English throughout their five year marriage. The fact that the significant language barrier did not compel the woman to learn her husband’s language signaled a lack of legitimacy to the judge.
As this case demonstrates, Canadian immigration policy must evolve as technology continues to break down international barriers.

Posted by Matthew Sim
Last time I wrote a ‘Postcards from Texas’, I bemoaned the weather and fate for whisking away any migratory birds from my binoculars and my camera. This time, however, weather and fate were both on my side for a full 3 days, bringing warblers, thrushes, flycatchers, orioles, buntings, catbirds and cuckoos to my very neighborhood.
Saturday morning, something told me to go out birding. Trusting instinct, I went out to the neighborhood patches that occasionally turn up good birds. When I got to the pond, I heard a distinctive ‘chirp’ coming from the trees and shrubs lining the pond. Then came another ‘chirp’. And another. I soon was in a very excited mode, dashing this way in that, my camera turned up at the trees. A storm the night before had slowed migration, forcing migratory birds to land at the first green patch they saw, and for this reason, there were now dozens of migrants here at my local pond.
As I gazed upwards into the bushes and trees, I managed to see Wilson’s, Canada, Kentucky, Black-throated Green, Magnolia, Yellow, Tennessee and Chestnut-sided Warblers, American Redstart and Common Yellowthroat. Soon, I was seeing Gray Catbirds and even a male Baltimore Oriole.
As I admired the oriole, an even bigger surprise came up in the form of my first ever Indigo Bunting, They are quite stunning birds!
After that, I found a Olive-sided Flycatcher, identified by the two white spots on its back.
And then some of the regulars too…
At one point, upon seeing a large bird in one tree, I investigated, expecting to find some rather unusual bird. Instead, I found a rather common Green Heron- but in a tree?!
So maybe migration wasn’t so bad after all!

The US is the world’s third largest live commerce market after Denmark and China. Live commerce sales are projected to double by 2026.
Live commerce is growing rapidly in the US and the West after taking Asia, particularly China, by storm, and it could be one of the next biggest e-commerce trends.
‘Live commerce’ can easily be explained by comparing it to infomercials, where TV presenters demonstrate products and viewers can order them over the phone.
The difference is that live commerce is often live-streamed on social media by sellers or influencers, and viewers can purchase the product.
If anything, live commerce is more interactive than infomercials, as viewers can ask questions that can be answered live.
The trend started in Asia and became particularly popular during the pandemic as more people spent time on social media and buying products online instead of in stores.
Video-centric social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook, where users can make payments, seem best-positioned to benefit from the emerging trend.
Live Commerce Stats
Key 2022 findings from Statista:
- Over a third of US shoppers have heard of live-streamed shopping events, and approximately 20% of US shoppers have participated.
- Meanwhile, approximately 24% of shoppers in Denmark have taken part in live-streamed shopping events.
- China has the largest live-streaming commerce audience, with around 45% of internet users watching events, and it is particularly popular among younger generations.
- Livestream sales are projected to almost double by 2026.

Watch: Palestinian ex-prisoner now supports peace
Israelis living near Gaza trying to stay calm, but know tensions may escalateAfter the IDF announced a new set of security instructions for Israelis living near the Gaza Strip, many locals are concerned about the highly-volatile situation.
For Israelis living near the Gaza Strip, the recently-increased alertness along the border is a return to a reality they know too well. "Our three young children will be spending tonight in the missile-protected room, so they can go about their nightly routine with as few worries as possible," said a woman living in one of the towns bordering Gaza.
The IDF on Tuesday announced new, strict security instructions for Israelis living in the Gaza area, as part of the preparation for a possible retaliatory attack by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad for the killing of its terrorists in the IDF's recent tunnel demolition.
It was also reported that Iron Dome batteries were deployed all across the country and that many tourist sites were temporarily closed.
"We can sense the escalation," a Gaza-area resident said. "Today, for example, we heard a loud boom like we haven't heard in a long time."
Other locals, it seems, are trying to remain optimistic. "We trust the IDF 100% to protect us," said Ofer Lieberman, a farmer from Kibbutz Nir Am. "It's business as usual for us. We know that when Hamas sees us building homes and sowing seeds, it concerns them more than tanks."

Bonjour tout le monde! I apologise, I completely forgot to add an update for yesterday’s classes. Here’s what’s on the go.
Le français 7E – We’re quite comfortable providing explanations for our preferred sports. We are moving onto providing a description of our favourite sports. Lots of new vocabulary that we can review at home.
Les sciences humaines 7D – We are finishing up the first unit, The students received a review page of questions today for studying. We started answering in class and asked each other chosen questions aloud. I’ve added the review page to the science humaines folder. We have scheduled a unit test for ourselves for Tuesday, January 28.
Les sciences humaines 7A – We started typing our essay. The students used a majority of the class for typing with some work on editing on their first draft. We will continue the assignment in class.
Les maths 7C & 7D – We have moved along with addition of fractions. With each lesson, we make the equations a little bit more complicated and add another step in solving the equation. We are currently working on adding improper fractions with different denominators. Students have a handout – Page H – to ensure is complete for tomorrow. The google classroom homework is on pause right now. Friday’s cancellation ruined my assessment schedule and I was unable to mark all the duotangs handed in yesterday. I’m hoping tomorrow will be different.
La science 7D – We have our science review sheet completed and we started discussing some of its questions. We corrected our answers for questions 1, 3 and 5 on pages 66 and 67. We then moved onto questions 2, 4 and 6. Students are to have questions 2 and 4 complete for tomorrow’s class.

Garry Rayno's State House Dome: Gun rights groups taking aim at SB 244
The shooting has already begun between gun rights groups squaring off over Senate Bill 244.
As originally proposed, the bill, sponsored by Sen. David Watters, D-Dover, and Rep. Jeff Goley, D-Manchester, would require people with court-determined mental illness to be added to the federal list of people prohibited from purchasing guns.
But at a public hearing in January, advocates for the disabled and the mentally ill argued they were being targeted when the focus should be on how dangerous a person is.
That section of the bill is gone, but two provisions remain: one to establish a commission to study the relationship between mental health and firearms, and another that had several gun rights groups backing the original bill - a path to annul a person's mental health records in the National Instant Criminal Background Check System.
Currently, there is no way for someone in New Hampshire on the federal prohibition list to have his or her name removed after being cured of a mental illness.
Gun and ammunition manufacturers and distributors, along with Pro-Gun New Hampshire, backed the bill because of the provision establishing a process for getting a name removed.
Former Senate Majority Leader and Pro-Gun New Hampshire President Bob Clegg took issue with an email Larry Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America, sent to the organization's members regarding the bill. The email was sent as an open letter to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sharon Carson, R-Londonderry, who worked out the SB 244 compromise.
Pratt attacked the bill as though it still contained the mental health reporting provisions and questioned the adequacy of the annulment process, which in the compromise would track the state's procedure for annulling felony records.
Pratt said, "If you want to create a remedy which is more than a sham, the state should pay all legal fees and psychiatric evaluations."
In a subsequent email, Pratt said passing the bill would only encourage greater restrictions in the future and allow anti-gun rights activists to keep the issue in play.
Clegg said local pro-gun groups are being told to shut up so national groups such as Pratt's can continue to raise money.
Pratt is not telling the truth about the amendment, which he has seen, Clegg said. "GOA comes out and says the bill does things it doesn't do," he said.
He said the bill would grant people the right to annul a record to retain their gun rights, something they do not have now. "Why is this so bad?" Clegg asked.
He noted some people have spent tens of thousands of dollars trying to have their names removed from the federal prohibited list, only to be told by a judge that such removal can't be done in New Hampshire.
During the public hearing on the bill, James Bryant of Enfield said the provision would finally allow him to regain his guns, which he lost when he had a mental breakdown. He has since recovered and has the support of his counselors in regaining his gun rights.
"(The path) comes to a dead end in the middle of the night," Bryant told the Senate Judiciary Committee. "I'm just looking for a path to redemption."
He told the committee he paid an attorney $13,000 to go through the court process, which ended with a judge telling him his request could not be granted under New Hampshire law. His attorney told Bryant he could appeal the superior court decision, but that would cost about $20,000, he said.
Clegg said Bryant's experience shows why the state needs SB 244.
He also noted the bill would set up a commission composed of interested parties who would be able to sit at the table and say how best to fix the system, he added.
Among the groups who would be represented on the commission are the commissioners of the safety and health and human services; a member of the judiciary; representatives from the Disability Rights Center, the N.H. Psychiatric Society, the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)-New Hampshire, the NH Civil Liberties Union, the National Rifle Association, the N.H. Firearms Coalition, Gun Owners of N.H., Pro-Gun N.H., the Second Amendment Sisters-N.H., the National Shooting Sports Foundation and the N.H. Association of Chiefs of Police; and two members of the public.
"Gun dealers in New Hampshire are still liable if they sell to someone who has a problem," Clegg said, and that needs to be addressed.
The Senate Judiciary Committee has yet to vote on the amendment proposed by Carson.
That vote will have to come soon because the Senate has to act on the bill by March 27.

Drones: Not to drone on, but a key House committee last week approved a revised plan from one of the Legislature's leading privacy advocates, Rep. Neal Kurk, R-Weare, that would curtail drone activity, particularly by state, local or federal agencies.
Under the latest version of House Bill 1620, agencies would first need to obtain a search warrant if a drone was to be used to gather evidence; would have to report the evidence obtained to the attorney general; and would have to limit the drone's use to a two-day period. Any evidence obtained through the use of a drone not directly related to the warrant would have to be destroyed.
Kurk introduced a bill last year that would have banned drones from taking pictures of people's homes, but the bill drew adamant opposition from the N.H. Association of Broadcasters and the N.H. Civil Liberties Union, both claiming it would violate First Amendment rights.
Kurk has repeatedly said the intent of his bill was not to stop private drone enthusiasts from using them in public places and unintentionally photographing a person, but rather to forbid surveillance or monitoring an individual or group.
The House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee voted, 12-5, in support of Kurk's revised bill, but urged him to continue working to gain greater support.
The House will vote on the bill by the end of March.

Grow Your Own: Despite a near-certain veto by Gov. Maggie Hassan, the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee voted, 13-3, to approve a bill that would allow patients who qualify for the state's new medical marijuana program or their caregivers to grow their own medicine.
When the House approved a medical marijuana program last year, it included a provision allowing patients to grow their own marijuana or cannabis. Supporters said it would be cheaper and would allow immediate relief for patients instead of making them wait at least two years until a dispensary system was established.
When the bill went to the Senate, Hassan, who had supported medical marijuana as a state senator, told key senators she would veto the bill if the home-grow provision remained in the bill.
The Senate bowed to her request and the House eventually gave in, wanting a medical marijuana program of some kind.
This year, Rep. Donald "Ted" Wright, R-Tuftonboro, one of the sponsors of last year's bill, proposed House Bill 1622 to allow patients who cannot wait for the alternative treatment centers to grow their own marijuana.
Patients or their caregivers would be able to possess up to two mature plants and 12 seedlings. The plants' location would be reported to the Department of Health and Human Services.
Patients would lose their right to grow their own when an alternative treatment center opened within 30 miles of where they lived.
"Patients and caregivers in Vermont and Maine have been cultivating their own marijuana legally for years with little controversy," said Matt Simon of Goffstown, who is political director for the Marijuana Policy Project. "The House has consistently supported patients who urgently need medical marijuana to treat their conditions, and in light of this excellent committee vote, we fully expect a strong House vote in favor of HB 1622."
Without the bill, patients will not have access to marijuana until the summer of 2015 at the earliest, Simon noted.

Abortion Clinics: While much of the attention last week was on Senate Bill 319, which passed on a 15-9 vote, setting up a 25-foot buffer zone around the entrances to abortion clinics, abortion foes took one on the chin in the House, as well.
House Bill 1501 would have required abortion clinics to be licensed by the state Health and Human Services Department.
The House Health and Human Services Committee voted, 17-0, Thursday to kill the bill.
Bill opponents said it would have made abortion services more difficult to offer and access.
The bill was the work of the Americans United for Life (AUL) and was a legislative priority for pro-life groups, such as N.H. Right-to-Life and Cornerstone Action.

[From the July/August issue of FFAOL]
We live in a world where there are words one is not allowed to say, and preferences one is not allowed to have. How remarkable that we have become so obsessed with offending no one that we manage to offend everyone at some point. What’s more, as our society has focused on avoiding hurting anyone’s feelings, we offend God at almost every twist and turn.
One should not expect much from a world that has elevated man to the position only God Almighty rightly holds. It is in the church that this phenomenon is most disturbing. While it is true that we all begin our lives as sinners, it is not true that all people are the same. There is a difference. There are two kinds of sinners: those trying to honor God and obey His law, and those who are in open rebellion against Him. When preachers repeat the misleading statement that we are all sinners and none is better than the next, it groups all people (whether redeemed or not) into the same category. However, this is simply not true!

The biggest difference I notice in selling digital versus traditional advertising is the client’s attitude towards accessibility. Nobody ever says they have their own radio station that they create advertisements for, or their own print publication – but business owners create and execute their own digital advertising campaigns all of the time.
New outlets, especially social media, make advertising available directly to the business. Without needing a third party for access, there isn’t an obvious need to hire a vendor or a digital expert to handle digital marketing, because you can do it yourself! Right? Not necessarily. Even though you can access these digital advertising platforms there are several reasons to have a digital media partner handle your digital advertising.
Save Time: As a business owner you already have your plate full with issues like employees, operations, inventory and clients. These are going to take up the majority of your time. Adding marketing responsibilities into that mix is going to take time away from your other responsibilities. Experts in digital advertising are able to take these projects off of your hands and free up your valuable time.
Save Money: How does paying someone to do your advertising save you money? The easy answer is efficiency. Not only are Digital Partners able to execute the same campaigns in less time, but because of our knowledge and expertise, we’re often able to use your budget in a more efficient way. This could be done by selecting a more focused target audience, improving ad performance or even by choosing the most effective advertising outlets. Maybe you’re spending all of your budget on Facebook but your business could really benefit more from a targeted email campaign.
Accountability: If you assign these responsibilities to yourself or an internal employee who does not have marketing as their primary job function, it may get de-prioritized or forgotten when other aspects of the job take priority. You’re paying your digital partner to execute these campaigns for you. They are contractually obligated to fulfill your campaign. If you’ve chosen a good digital partner, they will keep you in the loop throughout the campaign and bring results to review with you as proof of performance.
Strategy: A Digital Partner has the time, knowledge and ability to properly plan your digital campaigns. If you have a big sale or a grand opening coming up, a digital partner can look ahead and strategize with you to create an all-inclusive digital plan that reaches your target audience at the appropriate time. This is much more effective than trying to get something together last minute at the same time you are trying to pull this big event together.
Leaving it to the experts will save you time, money and improve the overall quality of your digital marketing. At FMDi, we work closely with our business partners to develop a working relationship that fits each business’ unique needs. We’d love to discuss how we can help you make your digital marketing strategy more effective.

Dominica, you reveal my dark side. The scheming, cruel woman within.
You see, I had ulterior motives for putting “Mountain Chicken” our menu this week. Although I was a little nervous to try this strange creature, I really wanted to see Mr. Picky’s reaction. I imagined him gleefully exclaiming “Mmm, fried chicken.” Then I played out the moment when, just as he took a big bite, I would mutter “ribbit” under my breath. When he questioned me I would burst out “Mountain chicken is frog!” and laugh like a mad woman.
Unfortunately, things didn’t quite play out that way. The secret slipped.
The worst part? When he found out, he nonchalantly replied… “Oh, frogs? Cool. I used to catch those in the creek with my buddies and cook them on a campfire.”
You should of seen my face.
So much for Mr. Picky.
Callaloo (Caribbean Green Soup) [Recipe]
This thick soup often includes dark green callaloo and pig tails but our version substitutes readily available spinach and ham bone. Slowly simmered with okra, habenero pepper, coconut milk, onion, and seasonings.
Caribbean Bakes (Fried Biscuits) [Recipe]
This indulgent, yet common Caribbean side dish is a pan fried biscuit. The same dough dropped into simmering broth or soup makes dumplings.
Deep-Fried Mountain Chicken (Frog Legs) [Recipe]
Regular frog legs will do for this recipe. Dipped in seasoned flour, they are deep fried until golden brown.
Grapefruit & Avocado Smoothie [Recipe]
Bitter grapefruit tang is mellowed out with creamy avocado and a splash of sugar. An unusual and refreshing drink.
Simply fill in your details below.

Pittsburgh PA (PRWEB) July 12, 2012
Ahead of the NFL’s 2012 regular season, eager Patriots fans are already snatching up New England Patriots tickets. Many Patriots fans begging for a slew of new wins, an AFC division title, and another crack at the Super Bowl this coming season. So it’s no surprise that the NFL’s 2012 Draft saw the New England Patriots picking up some great defensive players.
The New England Patriots may be one of the best offensive teams in the NFL, but many sports pundits and fans alike decry their defense as one of the worst in the NFL. The Patriots coaching staff is no stranger to this, so they used the 2012 Draft to pick up mostly great defensive players. Fans are buying more Patriots tickets for the 2012 season early to see if their team can use these picks to bring home the trophy this year.
In Round 1 of the April Draft, the Patriots picked up DE Chandler Jones from Syracuse. Jones has been widely touted as a great pass rusher, so the Patriots traded up for him. Another highly regarded pick from Round 1 is LB Dont’a Hightower from Alabama, an exceptional defensive player, but it’s debatable whether the Patriots had a real need for him.
Another pick worth noting is CB Alfonzo Dennard from Nebraska. This pick came in Round 7 because he is surrounded by controversy due to assaulting a police officer ahead of the Daft. But both fans and the Patriot coaching staff are quick to point out that this does not diminish his exciting defensive skills.
Despite their team’s reputation for not having a good defense, fans are already buying New England Patriots tickets. After all, they did have a 13-3 season and made it to the Super Bowl in 2011.

I have created some new Fedora 13 benchmarks. I have published the results on Phoronix
The WhiteGate™ award goes to Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and CEO of Facebook.
For those that haven’t read the article, Mark Zuckerberg is referring to all of his Facebook clients as “Dumb Fu##s” for giving him the private information he requires to create an account at Facebook. This occurred when he was a student at Harvard in 2004. When he created Facebook. This does not address the latest round of privacy erosion that Facebook is perpetrating upon it’s subscribers.
I have a simple response.
I deleted my account on Facebook.
Then I restored it and removed or modified any information I do not want publicized. It takes more effort on the part of Facebook to maintain an account that has erroneous information than it does to truncate a record in their database. It also erodes their credibility with the 3rd parties they sell the erroneous information to.
There is a lot of confusion and misinformation related to data communication.
An interesting snippet related is that data storage occurs in multiples of 1024 per Kilobit or Kilobyte. Data transmission occurs at 1000 per Kilobit or Kilobyte.
Wired communication is typically IEEE 802.3 in a range of speeds 10, 100, 1000 and 10000 Megabits per second. Abbreviated Mb/s. This is often referred to as Ethernet. 10/100 Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Note that 100Mb/s and 100MB/s are different values. Mb is Megabit. MB is Megabyte. A bit is 1/8th of a Byte. A Byte is 8 bits.
Wireless communication is typically IEEE 802.11. 802.11 comes in a few different values also. 802.11a is pretty well obsolete and useless. 802.11b is also pretty useless. 802.11g has a maximum throughput of 54Mb/s and 802.11n has a maximum throughput of 300Mb/s.
MoDems ( an acronymn for Modulate/Demodulate ) communicate at kilobaud rates, not kilobits or kilobytes. Modems are analog devices that connect a computer or other digital device to an analog medium. A baud is the amount of data to create one symbol, but not a bit or a byte.
Any device that connects your computer to a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) or Cable is not actually a MoDem at all. It is a network bridge. It passes the digital signal of your computer from Ethernet to DSL or Ethernet to RG-58 or even Ethernet to Fibre in some cases. It does not MOdulate or DEModulate the signal. It may multiplex the signal but that’s a story for another day.
Something that often gets overlooked in data communication speed is overhead. No matter what brand or type of hardware, no matter how great the cable or the wireless devices, networks ALWAYS have overhead, some types of networks are more efficient than others. Network layer overhead is the amount of the network capacity that is required to establish and maintain the basics of communication. Typical network layer overhead for IEEE 802.x is twenty percent. The overhead of each PACKET of data sent via Ethernet is 8 percent. There are 2 types of network overhead. A) Protocol Overhead and B) Network Layer Overhead.
A classic example of this in actual use is FTP vs. HTTP for file transfers. FTP is always faster than using HTTP if you are using the same network. FTP does not send a confirmation frame at the end of transmission. HTTP does.
Another commonly maligned term is Bandwidth. Bandwidth is NOT the amount of speed you have available. Bandwidth is the difference between the lowest and highest frequency of the carrier signal. It is a determining factor for the RATE of data flow but not actually the rate of data flow. Think of this as the diameter of the water pipe. The water pipe diameter can determine the maximum flow of water at a given pressure, but it does not determine what the current flow is. It is merely the top end theoretical limiting factor. Bandwidth is measured in hertz. Abbreviated Hz.
Now let’s look at a term called “Goodput”. Goodput is the theoretical maximum taking protocol and network overhead into account. It DOES NOT factor in retransmissions for dropped packets, confirmation packets for TCP, or interframe gap overhead. Goodput on a 100Mb/s Ethernet cable is 12MB/s. You will never actually get that rate of speed from a 100Mb Ethernet connection. Goodput for a Gigabit Ethernet is 120MB/s. Again still a theoretical value. Actual burst rates are usually in the range of 100MB/s for a Gigabit Ethernet connection. Sustained rates often drop to 75MB/s or lower.
These overhead factors effect wired and wireless communication in the same ways.
A 300Mb/s IEEE802.11n connection has a theoretical Goodput rate of 36MB/s. Which is indeed faster than 100Mb/s Ethernet’s Goodput rate of 12MB/s.
So yes, 802.11n can be and typically is faster than 100Mb/s Ethernet. Not as fast as Gigabit Ethernet though.
There are three other major factors to take into consideration when deciding between an 802.3 Network and an 802.11 Network.
1) Security – Hands down 802.3 Wins this point. Even when you employ every security measure possible, 802.11 is not very secure.
2) Price – 802.11 Typically wins this battle by a huge margin. CAT6 cable is not cheap.
3) Mobility – 802.11 ALWAYS wins this point.
We have but one Internet, and yes is has wires in many places. Yes, Internet is a proper noun even.
There is no such thing as Wireless Internet.
I always chuckle when I hear someone in an IT capacity say Wireless Internet, it defines their lack of expertise.
Many purported security experts believe that reformatting a computer will remove all traces of data. That is just not accurate. Drives can be formatted and reformatted and will still have files that can be easily recovered with the right tools.
There are 2 primary ways to permanently remove data from a hard drive. One is destructive and the other is not destructive.
1) Use a degausser ( powerful electron magnet ) on the drive. This renders the drive completely useless and destroys the drive permanently. This will remove the data permanently. I highly recommend method 2) instead of method 1)
2) If you have Windows XP Pro, Vista Pro, or Windows 7 Pro or higher you can wipe the data from the free spaces on a drive. The first step is to delete the files. Deleting a file does not actually remove it. It merely removes the file entry in the File Allocation Table and removes the first letter of the file name. It also frees the block or blocks of drive space that the file occupied for rewrite. Next up you would open a command prompt and type in
cipher /w:C: then press enter. This process will perform a government level wipe of the free space of your C: Drive. It can take several hours for the process to complete. What this does, is overwrite all free space of the drive with 0s, then 1s, then a random hex bit. This does permanantly remove any file that has been deleted. You can also remove individual files explicitly using
cipher /w:C:directorynameoffile. Once a file has been wiped using the cipher utility there is no chance that it can ever be recovered by any means. Use with caution.
Recently there has been a lot of technical buzz from purported security experts related to e-commerce on wireless connections. Their general premise is that a wireless network is not secure, therefore any form of communication on said network is also compromised.
Hogwash and an utter lack of technical expertise abound.
When you connect to an e-commerce web site, such as Amazon, the encryption is performed end point to end point between your web browser and the Amazon web server. Typically this is 1024 bit encryption and does not change whether you are connected via wireless, wired, phone, or satellite. The encryption is initiated by your web browser and replied to by Amazon’s server. When either the Amazon server or your computer do not receive the correct challenge or response during any portion of the transaction, either end will terminate the transaction. The hash of the keys is never broadcast in the data stream. This is a much more complex communication than what occurs between the wireless router and your laptop. Even when you are connected via wireless, this e-commerce transaction is as secure as it will be any other place. This form of secure transaction is so secure that it takes hundreds of very powerful computers and a super computer working in unison, over 90 hours to decipher ONE word of the transaction. There was a time this transaction type was believed to be impervious by some of the same purported security experts from the beginning of the story. NO form of encryption will ever be 100% impervious. There is an algorithm devised by the master mathematician Tesla himself that will break any form of encryption. Time and the computing muscle to carry it out are all that is required. The problem is that the time it takes is often calculated in years. Which is great if you are a consumer and terrible news for the thieves that want to steal your credit card data. Your credit card is more likely to be compromised by the database of the merchant, than via your secure transaction. This can and does happen frequently. It is still a much more secure method of purchasing than when you visit a store in person.
Here are some issues related to wireless connections.
When you connect to a wireless network, the encryption options are 8 bit, 12 bit, 48 bit or in some cases 56 bit AES encryption. In relative perspective, 1024 bit encryption is approximately 18X more powerful. Some wireless networks have the encryption completely disabled. This is a fairly insecure method of communication. It can be subverted by anyone that has the technical expertise in a matter of moments using an average computer. While this is not ideal it does not impact your 1024 bit encrypted transaction in the least. What it can impact, is the security of any files you have stored on your laptop. Any time you use a wireless connection it is never as secure as a wired connection is. The price we pay for convenience.
Ideas to consider when using wireless:
Turn off file shares and file sharing.
Secure your wireless routers as well as they allow for (use WPA2 AES encryption if possible).
If you notice something odd, be wary.
Use a software firewall and updated anti-virus software on each and every computer you use.
NEVER click on a Link in your email for an e-commerce site of any type. EVER. No matter what method you are using to connect.
Always visit a secure website by manually typing in the URL by hand OR buy using a LINK you create with Passwords2GO.
It is very easy for anyone to create a phishing link that looks like the real thing. It may look exactly like the real site when you visit it.
Never leave your laptop unattended.
Be aware that video camera surveillance is everywhere. Having the best password and encryption technology is useless if the keys to the fortress can be seen by untrusted eyes through a camera and yes the camera is powerful enough to zoom in on your laptop while you are in the coffee shop.
Never use passwords like 12345 or 123456. If something is important enough to use a password, use a good long one that is hard to guess.
A good example of a strong password is something like MyS0N1s4teen as opposed to password03.
For those who need an extra level of protection:
Use a flash drive with Passwords2Go software to store all of your data that is of a sensitive nature in encrypted format.
Keep it on your person when you need to, secure it in the vault when you do not.
Use it to create and store separate unique LONG passwords for every web site you log into. Never give anyone, save your beneficiary, your master password for Passwords2GO.
Your email and bank accounts should have their passwords changed frequently and more often than your twitter or facebook accounts.
I change most of my passwords every 30 days. The more critical the data, the more frequent the password change.
The release schedule for Fedora 13 has been pushed back another week. The current release schedule indicates May 25, 2010 as the release date.
I would much prefer to see a product released well tested than as a beta. Microsoft could learn a lesson from Fedora in this regard.
I re-installed VLC on Fedora 13 today. It works!

Mistletoe (viscus album) is a unique plant that grows from the bark apple, pine and fir trees. It has white berries from which mistletoe medicinal products are made. Used as a medicinal plant for centuries is has been shown to be very helpful in treating cancer. The use of mistletoe is somewhat standard in European oncology hospitals.
Research shows that mistletoe therapy improves patient’s immune response, induces cancer cell apoptosis (programmed suicide) and markedly improves quality of life.

SSR02 Sjöström Super Regulator
Ultra high performance regulator, negative output voltages. The pcb has four layers and gold pads. It's an unpopulated pcb. As a service you can have the AD825 soldered by me.
- 4-layer pcb with 70 um (2 oz.) copper.
- Power traces 140 um!
- Gold pads.
- Extremely low noise.
- Extremely low output impedance in the audioband.
- Small size.
- Easy to change voltage, also to negative voltage but this particular design (pcb) requires two different pcb's, one for positive voltages and one for negative.
- Well-known and well-tested in serious and demanding applications.
- Option for TO92 or SOT23 transistors for the small signal transistors.
- Option for DIL08 or SO08 opamp.
- LM431 (and similar) reference or devices like LM329. The pcb has a universal footprint.
- Trimming options for both the reference and the feedback. Room for extra resistors and trimpots.
- One output with sense inputs.
- All resistors 10 mm so it is possible to use a cut and bending machine for those parts.
Option for using higher voltage than the max supply voltage for the opamp.

PARIS — Emmanuel Macron said France would “rebuild Notre Dame” after a massive fire at the famed Paris cathedral shocked France Monday evening and prompted the president to postpone a major speech.
Macron had been due to give a televised address outlining measures he plans to take following nationwide public debates held in response to the Yellow Jackets protest movement. Instead, he traveled to the cathedral to inspect the blaze and the efforts of firefighters to bring it under control.
Returning to the site four hours after the fire broke out, a visibly emotional and solemn Macron announced a worldwide fundraising campaign would be launched Tuesday to help rebuild the cathedral.
“It is a terrible tragedy … Notre Dame is the cathedral of all French … [it is] the epicenter of our life,” Macron said, saluting the “extreme courage” of the firefighters who battled the flames. Officials said they had managed to save cathedral’s structure from collapse.
Officials said Tuesday that the fire has been fully extinguished, and that an investigation has been opened into both the cause of the blaze and the extent of the damage suffered by the cathedral’s interior and artworks.
Mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo tweeted early on Tuesday to thank first responders and said that several of the cathedral’s most precious artifacts have been saved.
The large blaze at the 850-year-old icon is “potentially linked” to renovation works, France Info reported late Monday, citing firefighters.
Fire alarms went off around 6:30 p.m., shortly after an evening mass started and while between 1,000 to 2,000 people were inside the cathedral, André Finot, the spokesman for the cathedral, told French radio RTL.
Everyone was evacuated safely, and no deaths or injuries of the cathedral-goers have been reported so far, according to officials. Some 500 firefighters were mobilized, one of whom was seriously hurt, according to Reuters.
The cathedral’s 13th-century frame, nicknamed “the forest” because it was entirely made of wood, was devoured by the flames. In a dramatic moment, Notre Dame’s spire also went up in flames and collapsed.
The destruction of the cathedral on Holy Monday, which marks the beginning of the Holy Week leading up to Easter celebrations, was a particularly devastating blow to Catholics.
“I asked the lord: Why? I think I will get my answer when I reach the heavens … It is apocalyptic,” said Patrick Chauvet, rector of Notre Dame.
The Vatican said Tuesday that Pope Francis stands with France and is praying for Catholics and Parisians alike.
“The pope is close to France, he is praying for French Catholics and for the people of Paris in face of the terrible fire which has ravaged Notre Dame cathedral,” Alessandro Gisotti, head of the Vatican press office, wrote on Twitter.
Addressing the European Parliament in Strasbourg Tuesday, European Council President Donald Tusk offered “words of comfort and solidarity with the whole French nation,” noting that his hometown of Gdańsk in Poland had been rebuilt from destruction.
“You will also rebuild your cathedral,” he said, asking all 28 EU countries to help in that effort. “The burning of the Notre Dame cathedral has again made us aware that we are bound by something more important and more profound than treaties. Today, we understand better the essence of that, which is common, we know how much we can lose. And that we want to defend it – together.”
European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said late Monday: “Notre Dame de Paris belongs to all humanity. What a sad spectacle. What horror. I share the emotion of the French nation, which is also our own.”
— Patrick Galey (@patrickgaley) April 15, 2019
Responding to Macron’s call for funds to help rebuild the cathedral, French billionaire Bernard Arnault’s family and his LVMH luxury goods group pledged to donate €200 million, while businessman François-Henri Pinault, chairman and CEO of luxury group Kering, promised €100 million.
Fundraising is also underway overseas. In the United States, the French Heritage Society promised to help, while the crowdsourcing platform GoFundMe raised almost $4,000 within hours.
France’s main parties suspended campaigning for next month’s European election.
“We are living a moment of profound sadness, the Renaissance list joins this moment of national unity. We are suspending the campaign until further notice,” Nathalie Loiseau, lead candidate of Macron’s party La République En Marche (LREM), tweeted Tuesday. (LREM has branded its campaign “Renaissance.”)

Ino had always had the habit of putting people into categories. It came from her studying the mind so she could use it to her advantage. Unfortunately it was more a childhood habit of fairy tales and naivety that came from being raised like she was a delicate princess.
She was the headstrong princess that would have the handsome prince by her side – which had quickly turned into the brooding mystery commodity that Sasuke Uchiha had become after the massacre. He had a been a thrilling mix of tragedy and status that she had to have because she was clearly supposed to be by his side in terms of looks that no one else would be able to fill.
Sakura had been the damsel in distress that needed someone to follow and who better to show her the ropes but Ino who had always wanted a lackey.
Later, with Sakura's growing confidence, Ino had stepped her up a peg and claimed her as her rival, the person in the way of her one true love.
She had always been such a vain person.
As she grew older she learned to not act upon her first impressions even though in her head, Naruto became the hero, Sakura, once again, became the damsel in distress, and Sasuke had become the traitor – the villain.
Time passed, life went on and she learned to control the nasty habit, ignoring the little narrator in her head and instead focused on her ninja training. And like the rest of her graduating class, grew stronger, and changed into a force to be reckoned with.
And then he was back and suddenly that little labeler in her head was screaming: Villain.
It took all her will power not become the hero and rid the world of the bad guy.
Really, she had intended to remain indifferent, pretend like his presence meant nothing to her, and go on her merry way. There had been no need to acknowledge anything, he was alone (Sai, Sakura, and Naruto haven become an almost permanent fixture) and therefore she had no reason to nod on his direction as she had done for the past few weeks, not wanting to intrude on Team 7's (Team Kakashi, Team Yamato, whatever they were called these days...) bonding time.
But then he had seen her and looked like he expected her to attach himself to him simply because he was alone where no witness to prove her that she still "loved him" (Which may or may not have been an intuitive leap) and the fact that her visage had remained that of some ignorant, clingy, fangirly little Gennin angered her greatly.
So instead of going to lunch where she was going to meet Anko for some mid noon indulgence of sake she veered to the right toward the training grounds where the Uchiha was quite obviously headed and cut him off with speed that the Uchiha had been unaware she possessed. She put on her most Sai-like smile and with the most sickeningly sweet voice she could muster, introduced herself.
"Hi. This is pretty awkward seeing as I know you quite intimately while you, on the other hand, don't know who I am. I'm Ino Yamanaka, otherwise known as ANBU interrogator, or preferably The Konoichi that mind-raped your ass. Nice to formally meet you."
I really liked the love/hate relationship that occurred in Sleepwalking and decided to explore it further here. Yes, this one will also be annoyingly short as well but I don't really have time for anything else. This ones more for my enjoyment anyway.

"Microsoft’s Nokia purchase"
Know something we don't?
HTC is actively looking at buying its own mobile operating system, such as HP’s WebOS, but isn’t in any hurry. In an interview with Economic Observer of China, HTC chairwoman Cher Wang said that she and other members of the board were looking at the options for the company to buy its own OS but that no decisions had been made …
Know something we don't?
It's not offical but it's pretty much a done deal.
There are many rumours about a purchase, but since Elop was placed at the head of Nokia it's been pretty safe to class the once mighty Finnish company as having been absorbed into the collective.
You think it's pretty safe. I'd put money on the Finnish government growing a pair and nationalising it out from under them. Proper order too.
Great deal for Microsoft - rather than paying billions to buy Nokia outright, they just got 'lucky' when a ex-MS exec got the plum CEO role at Nokia.
End result - Nokia's now half the price and about the only dedicated supporter of WP7. Total investiment from MS - about a billion in marketing costs to Nokia.
I could imagine Elop will be popular at Microsoft when/if Nokia exits the smartphone market, leaving a carcass of dumb phones and patents.
So they haven't brought Nokia yet, but seem to be running the ship at minimal cost.
>We can use any OS we want
iOS might not be an option they can afford considering Apples current market cap.
They'll either need to make sure any new OS is free from infringing baggage or, more likely, comes with a whole host of patents (like Web OS) otherwise they'll just be spending money to become another Microsoft/Oracle/Whomever infringement target again. Sometimes you have to wonder whether the US market is worth getting into for phones when the rest of the market is absolutely huge (Africa, India, China, Europe etc) and the US economy is bust anyhow.
Intresting, I have tried to like droid and just couldnt get on with it. I liked HTC's high end hardware and would consider it if they have there own OS as a alternative to what I am using now.
Put Meego on that and it may mean I leave my N900 as a shelf queen
Get yourself a HTC 7 Pro. You'll love it. Genuinely.
There are some OSes to buy but what to do? WebOS, MeeGO even Symbian! Or fork Android like some are saying that Amazon will do. But apart Android, only Symbian has considerable apps available. MeeGo technically is on par with Android, iOS and WebOS, but like WebOS, no market, and that means alot of money in marketing it. But picking WebOS or specially MeeGO, that i would love to see and wait with a pint on my hand for the faces of Elop and Steve B. :-)
Yep, WebOS certainly put HP products over the top.

Yea that'll work well.
Clearly this is why WebOS failed, it's why Windows Phone 7 is also failing with a embarrassingly low 1% marketshare (and i'm guessing most of those are freebie promo phones). Little or no developer support, and a high FAC (Fart App Count).
I think WP7's biggest problem to adoption was Windows Mobile 6.x (and earlier).
Also, I'm not quite sure of the 1% market share, the only place I've read that is Gartner and as they said it was down on the same time last year (i.e. *before* WP7 launched), I'm inclined to take their figures with a pinch of the old sodium chloride.
Other sources put the figure in the 4-6% range, which actually compares quite well with Android at roughly the same age (2-3%).
I seriously doubt it'll make the 33% Android hit at the two year mark, though.
Well that'll be the end of HTC then. HTC should simply stick with Windows Phone and Android and keep on producing class leading hardware. We all know Android is set to become the dominant mobile OS, so on earth is HTC thinking foolish thoughts??? HTC, do what you do best, produce the best hardware bar none to remind Google that HTC hardware is far superior to Motorolas.

“We are already not very much surplus. In 15 years, in spite of all planned steps, the country might be in deficit. But that should not worry us as we can import,” Sanjiv Singh, the company’s director for refineries, told ET.
India has a capacity to refine 230 million tonne (mt) a year. Singh said this will rise to 300 mt by 2030 based on expansion of existing facilities. In addition, the government is assessing the feasibility of building a new, giant refinery of 60 mt on the west coast, which can significantly change the demand supply situation once it is erected.
The net export of petroleum products has declined in the past two years, falling to 32.3 mt last fiscal from 42.6 mt in the previous year. This trend, Singh points out, will magnify in the following years despite plans to augment the refining capacity.
In 2015-16, consumption of petroleum products rose 11% to 183 mt against a production growth of just 4.5%. Of the total output of about 230 mt, a tenth is consumed by refineries internally with the balance made available for domestic consumption and exports.
The demand for energy is expected to stay strong in an economy that is expanding at 7.6%, throwing up opportunities for refiners to expand.
“Nothing is going to drastically change till 2030. Oil and gas consumption is going to grow even till 2040,” Singh said referring to the possible impact of renewable energy and electric cars on the demand for oil and gas. But he also added a note of caution: “If technology radically changes and our consumption reduces, the demand will come down”.
“The crude market is very wide but the products are available only with a few companies,” said Singh, explaining why the country is better placed importing crude rather than refined products and it should aim to have enough refining capacity to meet local demand.
The only disadvantage of adding refinery is the potential of environmental pollution, but “if we can control that, it would be great,” he said.
The government recently set up a committee to prepare a report for enhancing state refinery capacity by 2040. The panel, comprising oil ministry officials and executives of state and private refiners, will assess primary energy mix of the country and demand for petroleum products by 2040 in its report to be submitted in three months.
Indian Oil Corporation plans to add about 20 mt in the next five years to take its capacity to 100 mt. Other state firms, Bharat Petroleum and Hindustan Petroleum, too have major expansion plans.

Microsoft has vehemently rebuffed claims that its Windows 7 operating system is responsible for causing the alleged and rapid degradation of notebook batteries.
"Every single indication we have regarding the reports we’ve seen are simply Windows 7 reporting the state of the battery using [its] new feature and we’re simply seeing batteries that are not performing above the designated threshold," company spokesperson Steven Sinofsky explained in an official blog post.
"It should stand to reason that some customers would be surprised to see this warning after upgrading a PC that was previously operating fine. Essentially the battery was degrading but it was not evident to the customer until Windows 7 made this information available."
Sinofsky noted that the sudden degradation may have "the appearance" of Windows 7 "causing" the damage, but emphasized that "in reality," the OS was simply reporting what was "already" the case.
Nevertheless, ZDNet’s Adrian Kingsley-Hughes observed that the controversial battery issue may have created a potential backlash against Windows 7 - which has generally received positive reviews.
"Over the past few weeks, Windows 7 has been hit by several problems, which while being high profile, may or may not only exist in the minds of the users," wrote Kingsley-Hughes.
“There’s been the battery issue, where users claim that Windows 7 is causing battery deterioration, and on top of that claims that a reliability patch released by Microsoft is actually causing problems.”
According to Kingsley-Hughes, a number of users seem to be focusing on - and maybe even making up - things that they aren’t happy with.
“[But] I don’t think that any of this is a threat to Windows 7, because I think that there’s enough pent-up demand for the OS. It is interesting though to watch how even the shine wears off even the best things. People really are driven by 'the next new thing,'” added Kingsley-Hughes.

Hair stylists agree: Everyone is chopping it off. "I like that everyone is cutting their hair," says celebrity colorist Rita Hazan, who has worked with Beyoncé, Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Lopez, and lots of others. "It's sassy and says, 'I'm an in-control kind of woman.'"
They also agree that we're backing away from ombré color and choppy highlights, instead applying highlights more naturally. "I think women are going back to natural and lower-maintenance styles, hence the chop-offs," says Kimberly Gueldner, stylist at the Rita Hazan Salon in NYC. "And that applies to color as well."
These celebs embody the season's trendy looks.
The actress' shoulder-grazing hair is an easy-to-maintain length that flatters the face. Her subtle waves and honey highlights look effortlessly glam.

This is about latitude and longitude and the different way humans think about geography.
In making Wanderers, Erik Wernquist used the voice of Carl Sagan from an audio recording of his book Pale Blue Dot. At one point in the voice-over Sagan says Herman Melville “spoke for wanderers in all epochs and meridians”.
The phrase stuck in my head as an example of wonderful writing. I could live to be a hundred and never come up with words that so aptly and concisely express a single thought. And then I realised that even if I was as smart and knowledgeable as Sagan, and could turn a phrase as adroitly, I would still never use the world “meridian”.
Australians – I suspect – tend to think of their country from north to south. We all know there is a Western Australia and an east coast, but when most of us think of the Australian continent what we conceptualise is a tropical north, an arid centre and a temperate south. Australia lays south of the equator, and most of our cultural cousins lay north of it. Europeans did not occupy one coast and work their way across to the other side. They first occupied the margins of the continent, circling the landmass like a halo, and then sent expeditions into the centre.
Compare this with the way Europeans and North Americans seem to think of their respective geographies. There’s the Russian Bear in the east, the Middle East, the Far East, the Western Hemisphere. There’s Western Europe and Eastern Europe. There’s Western Civilisation. There’s the orient and the occident. To the best of my knowledge, no Englishman referred to France as the Near South and no Italian thought of Scotland as the Far North. The greatest navigational difficulty for early trans-Atlantic explorers was determining meridians of longitude, not parallels of latitude.
In the US, New York editor Horace Greeley exhorted young Americans to “Go west!”. Of course, if you live in America there is the South and the Bible Belt (with its hint of latitude), but American mythology expresses the urge to go west, to explore and settle new lands, to link the US not from Grand Forks to Corpus Christi but from New York to Los Angeles. Lewis and Clark didn’t make their way along the continental divide, they crossed it, east to west, and the great example of 19th century American industry and technology was the transcontinental railroad finished in 1869.
I’m not sure this says anything about our respective psychologies, but I think it says something about our history and geography.

Pikeville Medical Center welcomes Dr. Jarrell
Pikeville Medical Center (PMC) proudly announces the addition of Emergency Medicine Physician Dr. Brett E. Jarrell.
Dr. Jarrell received his Bachelor of Arts in biology from Wittenberg University. He received his Masters of Arts in biology from Marshall University and obtained his medical degree from Marshall University School of Medicine.
Dr. Jarrell completed his residency at West Virginia University and is board certified by the American Board of Emergency Medicine.
“I was always interested in science and being around people at an early age,” Dr. Jarrell said. “I suffered a lot of sports injuries and was always around doctors, and the work and care they provided intrigued me. I knew I wanted to provide care to patients one day as they did,” he said.
Dr. Jarrell says his mentors were Mitch Charles and Todd Crocco, both physicians who took him under their wing during medical school and his residency.
“They both instilled great lessons for me to carry on during my medical career,” Dr. Jarrell said. “They both taught me to trust my instincts, be a patient advocate and to always do the right thing,” he said.
He looks forwarded to providing emergency care to the region.
“My goals for the emergency department are pretty simple,” said Dr. Jarrell. “I want to provide quality care and treat patients with dignity.”
Several factors drew Dr. Jarrell to PMC.
“I chose PMC for a few different reasons,” he said. “I heard several positive things about the hospital and the care they provided to patients. I had several friends who came to work at PMC and loved working here. “
He said he came to see the hospital and loved the quality care they offer to people of this region.
“I knew I wanted to practice medicine here,” he added.
When he’s not caring for patients, Dr. Jarrell enjoys sports, traveling and takes an interest in international health care.

PPL Electric Utilities completed its third and final solicitation for solar renewable energy credits on July 16, which will help the company provide power from alternative energy sources for residential customers who elect to remain on the utility's default electric supply.
PPL Electric Utilities will purchase 21,000 solar renewable energy credits with supply beginning June 2013 for a period of seven years.
The price will be $43.20 per solar renewable credit, down from $149 and $107.83 in the first and second solar REC solicitations, respectively. The company received 25 bids from qualified suppliers.
Renae Yeager, senior manager of Regulatory Operations and Compliance for PPL Electric Utilities, said the utility will purchase about 10 percent of its power supply for PPL Electric Utilities customers from renewable sources.
That number will grow in the coming years under the requirements of the state's Alternative Energy Portfolio Standards Act, she said.
"PPL Electric Utilities is strictly a delivery company, so we don't produce power or own power plants. Instead we purchase power from many different suppliers for customers who don't choose an alternative supplier, and we pass along the costs without profit," Yeager said.
One solar renewable energy credit, or SREC, equates to the value of one megawatt-hour of power generated from solar power.
The additional income received from selling solar renewable energy credits increases the economic value of a solar investment and assists with financing solar technology.
In conjunction with state and federal incentives, owners of solar power generating systems can recover their investment in solar by selling their credits through spot market sales or long-term sales.
This completed PPL Electric Utilities' solicitations for long-term contracts for solar renewable energy credits for the current Default Service Procurement Plan.
PPL Electric Utilities will launch its third and final solicitation to procure SRECs from renewable energy credit aggregators with small-scale solar facilities that are 15 kilowatts or less in size. The Small-Scale Solar Set-Aside Program anticipates acquiring 1,600 SRECs over a seven-year period.
The offer day for this program is scheduled for Aug. 28. The price PPL Electric Utilities will pay aggregators for each SREC will be $43.20, based on the price set with the completing of the Long-Term SREC Request for Proposals.
PPL Electric Utilities encourages owners of small-scale solar facilities, typically installed on residential or small businesses, to contact renewable energy credit aggregators who may wish to purchase their credits for this or other SREC RFPs. A list of certified aggregators is found on the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission website at http://paaeps.com/credit/ .
PPL Electric Utilities, a subsidiary of PPL Corporation (NYSE: PPL), provides electric delivery services to about 1.4 million customers in Pennsylvania and has consistently ranked among the best companies for customer service in the United States. More information is available at www.pplelectric.com .

Buyer Agent vs. Seller Agent
A buyer agent and a seller agent both represent different people during the sale of a property. Find out about a buyer agent versus a seller agent with help from an experienced real estate professional in this free video clip.
Hi, I'm Darryl Baskin with EXP Realty in Tulsa, Oklahoma. What's the difference between a buyer's agent and a seller's agent? Well, it may sound obvious that a buyer's agent represents the buyer and a seller's agent represents the seller but what does it really mean when it gets down to business. Well, a buyers agent is specifically there to protect the buyer's interest through the process. Now imagine sitting down at the kitchen table with a home seller to negotiate the purchase of a property. A home seller you may or may not know well and a property that you don't really know the ins and outs of. The buyer's agent can help you negotiate the appropriate price for the market so that you're not overpaying, can help you through the process of home inspections and on relative terms help you determine what a fair deal is. Now how is a buyer's agent paid? In most instances your buyer's agent is paid through an agreement, a cooperative agreement through the multiple listing system. That's where real estate agents share the commissions. That means you won't have to pay more and you'll probably end up with a much better value, less stress in the process, and you'll be happier with your home purchase. I'm Darryl Baskin with EXP Realty in Tulsa, Oklahoma and that's the difference between a buyer's agent and a seller's agent.

We are closing in on our first quarter of 2018, and so far, it has been filled with bizarre (tide-pod ingesting) and hopeful (#metoo #timesup) trends. Regardless, we are optimistic about the trends that 2018 will bring to the wedding scene.
We connected with our Calgary Bridal Alliance members who witnesses trends come and go every year. Shirleen Burnett of Burnett Photography shares the trends she sees on the horizon for the year.
Is 2018 the year you tie the knot? If so, you have a lot to smile about!
There are many reasons why I adore being a wedding photographer and seeing the latest trends in fashion, decor, food and design is just one of them.
Weddings, large and small, are a feast for the eyes and we have a great time turning wedding elements into photographic eye candy!
Here’s what I see in the wedding industry’s crystal ball:
- A variety of veils, especially cathedral length
In the last 5 years, it seemed that veils weren’t in vogue (which is a real shame because they make for beautiful images). Veils are making a comeback and in a big way. I anticipate seeing intricate head pieces and longer veils on the brides of 2018.
- Capes & fur wraps
I’m seeing more brides opt for a veil-like cape for spring & summer weddings and full-length capes made from colored velvet, soft white wool and luxurious furs around the holidays and winter weddings. They look stately and regal. I expect to see more of them in 2018.
- Photo & slow-motion video booths
Photobooths and slow-motion video booths are on the rise for couples who want to engage their guests and create instant, take away mementos.
For budget savvy, DIY couples, I’m seeing more and more Polaroid cameras and selfie stations with fun, silly props at receptions.
Today’s videographers are creating cool, hip mini movies under 10 minutes for their clients. Gone are the days of passive video footage that go on for hours—#big yawn. Brides & grooms are turning on to this and I expect to have to share the light, so to speak, with more videographers in the near future.
- “Virtual” guest engagement
With high resolution cameras in smart phones and greater accessibility to the internet, the sky is the limit for engagement on social media platforms in 2018.
In our own wedding photography company, Burnett Photography (http://www.shirleenburnett.com/), 2018 will see us doing more live streaming of the ceremony and wedding day on Facebook and Youtube. This provides a “virtual” experience for friends and family who can’t be at the wedding in person. Open chats while live streaming allows for the bride and groom to connect with their on-line guests anywhere on the planet and that is certainly something to smile about!

Just returned from a 2 week self-catering family holiday two days ago and I have to say it was a very enjoyable break, Having intially read several reviews about the accommodation regarding the spaciousness and cleanliness of the rooms, I wasn't entirely convinced until we actually reached the apartment itself and saw it for ourselves. We were pleasantly surprised as to how large the rooms were, including the kitchen & bathroom. We had booked a one bedroom apartment which was ample for 2 adults and 2 teenage children. The accommodation was very clean, light, airy and quiet and our room had the pool view. It was more like a little house or a flat (not open-plan) which was ideal for us. The main windows to the rooms had shutters on them which appeared strong, secure & robust. thus providing us with a peace of mind despite reading the previous negative reviews about safe break-in. When we first arrived, I recall not being overly impressed with the outside of this aparthotel as it seemed deceptively small, housing 2 small pools (we were used to staying in larger hotels although in hindsight their rooms were much smaller in comparison to Plaza Real's). However, the well-maintained exterior of this aparthotel and spaciousness as well as the nice decor of the rooms more than compensated for that, and in the few days of our holiday we knew we had made the right choice staying here.
The hotel staff were helpful & friendly and prompt with any of our requests. The air conditioning in the room was truly a Godsend as it was very hot day & night. However, we had still got bitten by mosquitoes... I had been bitten at least 15 times during our stay...thus it is highly recommended you take along an insect repellant with you!!
We had no real issues regarding sunbeds which was probably due to the hotel's strictness about reserving sunbeds...even so, we still found a few people reserving sunbeds. Due to the intense heat, many guests required pool-side parasols but this was often a let down as there were very few which were often already taken by the time we reached the pool.
We ate out at various cafes/restaurants in the evenings at 'the strip' which is a good 15 mins walk (the short-cut way through what is known as the 'dirt' track' which was a short path leading to the main strip where all the pubs, bars & restaurants are located). There was lots of choice of eating & drinking places. The larger food superstores (if you want to buy your own food/drink and get more choice) are about a-20 mins walk away but you would most likely need your own transport or taxi to bring back any heavy shopping with you.
Overall, it was a pleasant holiday experience and I would recommend this hotel if anyone is thinking of visiting there. We would certainly go back there again.

The USA’s Para ice hockey team left Elmira, Ontario with a victory and a tie against its North American rivals, Canada, in a two-game exhibition series. After the first game on Thursday (13 February) ended in a 2-2 tie, the USA used third-period goals from Travis Dodson and Jack Wallace to squeak out a 2-0 victory in the second game on Saturday (15 February).
Here’s a closer look at how the two games panned out.
GAME 1: USA 2 - CANADA 2
For the first time since these cross-border rivals met since Para ice hockey joined the Hockey Canada family in 2004, their rivalry game did not have a winner.
Canada jumped to a quick 1-0 lead six minutes into the game when veteran Billy Bridges snuck the puck past netminder Jen Lee.
The Canadians looked on pace to end their five-game losing streak to the Americans until Brody Roybal rallied 2:07 into the third period to even score. Rob Armstrong responded with just over six minutes left in the game, though, to restore the Canadian advantage.
With 64 seconds remaining in the contest, US star forward Declan Farmer scored to force overtime.
Following a scoreless overtime period, each team scored once in the three-round shootout – Josh Pauls for the USA and Auren Halbert for Canada – leaving the game at a 2-2 tie.
GAME 2: USA 2 - CANADA 0
Through the first two periods, Canadian goaltender Dominic Larocque and American counterpart Steve Cash combined for 17 saves to keep the game scoreless. Roybal landed back-to-back shots on goal in the slot halfway through the first, but wasn’t able to convert.
Just 44 seconds into the final frame, former U.S. Marine and Purple Heart recipient Dodson scored what would be the game-winning goal off a pass from Farmer. Then with two minutes to go in regulation, Wallace added an insurance goal with helpers from Farmer and Roybal.
Larocque finished the game with 13 saves, denying a number of point-blank chances early on, while Cash ended the day with 10 saves.
“I'm really proud of the effort we put out there today,” US head coach David Hoff said in a USA Hockey statement. “It was a very physical game. We had to be both physically and mentally tough, but we continued to play our style of hockey and we got the outcome we wanted.”

Apache Airflow is a workflow management system that allows you to orchestrate sequenceable tasks. It is commonly used for ETL workflows, triggering machine learning jobs, and running DevOps operations such as backup and restore.
Considering its widespread usage, many different use cases, and open-source distribution, Airflow is used on many Kubernetes stacks. However, it can be difficult to configure and run Airflow on Kubernetes, so we want to offer a straightforward path to get you started.
This article will go over setting up a fresh Kubernetes cluster and installing Airflow onto that cluster using Plural, a free open-source Kubernetes DevOps platform that allows you to deploy Kubernetes clusters and open-source applications with little to no management experience necessary.
Additionally, this article will explain how to install other applications onto your Kubernetes cluster, enabling you to collocate Airflow and other applications you want to orchestrate with it.
Before getting started with this tutorial you will need your cloud provider’s CLI installed and configured. For more information on this step please refer to our cloud provider guide and follow the provider-specific instructions.
Apache Airflow and Kubernetes Installation
Install Plural CLI and Dependencies
Plural’s CLI can be pulled down via curl, brew, or as a prebaked Docker image. Since we’re on a Mac, we’ll use brew. If you’re not on a Mac, you can use one of these other options to pull the CLI down.
brew install pluralsh/plural/plural
Brew will install Plural, alongside terraform, helm, and kubectl for you. If you have already installed any of those dependencies yourself previously, you can add --without-helm, --without-terraform, or --without-kubectl.
Set up a Repository for Configuration
Once Plural is installed in your CLI, move to a directory that you use for Git repos and run:
This command will start the process of creating a Git repository in the current working directory with GitHub or GitLab. This repo will hold all of the configuration required for spinning up a Kubernetes cluster. Additionally, it will contain all of the helm and terraform needed for spinning up Plural’s console and your Airflow instance.
If you’re already logged in to app.plural.sh, Plural will recognize that and prompt you to log in there with your previously created account.
First, you are going to choose a name for your cluster and your desired cloud provider and deployment region.
Note: For this to work, you will need to configure your cloud provider CLI beforehand.
Plural will now guide you through a few configuration steps to make sure that we can accurately configure and spin up your resources. Let’s break it down into a list.
- Bucket Prefix - This will be attached to the front of any bucket name for buckets created by Plural on your behalf. This is for deduplication.
- Domain Provider - To host your applications on the web, you’ll need to configure ingress. We can set this up for you for free, which we recommend. If you have requirements to use your own DNS, check out this guide.
- SCM Provider - Basically, will you be using GitHub or GitLab to create your repository? Afterwards, you'll receive an OAuth workflow for us to create your repository on your behalf.
- Select an Organization - If you’re setting this up as part of a company or organization that you are a part of and have to write permissions for, you can set the repository to be created there. Otherwise, simply pick your personal org.
- Saving your SSH keys - Generally, don’t save these unless you haven’t configured Git SSH yet. If you can use `git clone` to pull a repository down already, just say no here.
- Choose a repo name - It’s advised to just pick the same name as your cluster name unless you have a predefined naming scheme or already have a repository with your cluster name.
… And you’re done! If everything went well, your terminal should look like this:
Now that your workspace is properly configured, you can start installing Airflow.
Now, change directories into the repository that you created to start installing applications to your workspace.
Install the Plural Console
The Plural console provides built-in monitoring of your Kubernetes cluster, tailored dashboards for your applications, incident management, and more. Console setup is not required but is highly recommended.
To check out the name of the console version you want to install for your specific cloud provider you can run plural bundle list console
Using the name you received, you can then install the console with the corresponding command.
plural bundle install console $CONSOLE_NAME
Here’s how it would look for AWS:
plural bundle install console console-aws
You will then be prompted to go through the configuration process for your application. Here you will enter a vpc_name, which will be the name of the virtual private cloud created by Plural for all Plural resources to be hosted in. In most cases it is best to name your vpc 'plural' - this is a cluster-level setting that we will only ask for once. You will not be prompted to do this again unless you destroy your workspace.
Next, you will name your WAL bucket which contains the write-ahead logs for the Postgres database that backs Plural. To use the default name, hit enter on your keyboard.
Similar to before when you set up DNS for the workspace, you are going to set up a subdomain specific to your application. We recommend you use the following naming convention:
After setting up your admin name you will be prompted with the option to enable "Plural OIDC". Open ID Connect allows you to manage authentication across all of your Plural applications by simply being logged in to app.plural.sh.
If you enable Plural OIDC you will no longer need to set up usernames and passwords for every single application that you deploy on Plural. We created this functionality for convenience. However, if you have a restriction on using this for your organization you can choose to not enable OIDC and manually authenticate each application you add to Plural.
Once completed, Plural will have all of the necessary information to successfully create the helm and terraform required for spinning up Plural’s console on Kubernetes.
Here’s how all that should look:
Install Apache Airflow
To install Airflow on our configured Kubernetes cluster, we will go through a similar flow. Use the requisite install command:
AWS: plural bundle install airflow aws-airflow
GCP: plural bundle install airflow gcp-airflow
Azure: plural bundle install airflow azure-airflow
KinD: plural bundle install airflow kind-airflow
You’ll be guided through another configuration wizard to get your Airflow configuration files set up. To help with every configuration parameter, Plural created a document to answer any questions you might have.
Here’s how it will all look when you’re done:
Note: You can preload your dagRepo with DAGs or add them later, Airflow will run a sync to pick any new DAGs up every few minutes or so.
Build and Deploy your Infrastructure Configuration
Now that you have installed all the bundles you need you can run:
This command tells Plural to write deployment files based on the configuration that we gave in both of these setup processes earlier.
The final step is to run:
plural deploy --commit "initial deploy
By running this command, Plural commits your configuration that we built earlier on your behalf to your Git repo and tells Plural to deploy the configured infrastructure and applications. Once this is kicked off, Terraform will start building the resources that your application needs.
Note: This step will likely take several minutes as Plural is requesting infrastructure from your cloud provider.
7. Accessing Plural Console and Airflow
Once your setup is complete, you can now access your Plural console and Airflow instance through your browser. To access your Airflow installation head over to the following URL you defined earlier in your web browser to access the Airflow UI.
Note: If you set up Plural OIDC earlier you don’t need to worry about managing authentication for logging into the console or the Airflow UI.
The URL to access your Airflow installation should look like this:
To monitor and manage your brand new Kubernetes cluster and its applications, head over to:
The Plural console acts as your command center for your Plural applications. It comes with a lot of out-of-box functionalities such as:
- Runbooks: Recommended settings and optimal operating procedures for running your application.
- Components: Statuses for each individual component in your Airflow deployment and Kubernetes cluster. Inside this, you can look into Pod logs and Pod events and use them to drill down into the root cause of any problems with your Kubernetes cluster
- Nodes: Graphs and detailed information about the utilization of resources and deployments on each node.
- Incidents: View incidents that are automatically created by Plural on component failure. Access a direct connection with our support team to troubleshoot any issues.
- Dashboards: View charts that have been tailored for your application. Every Plural application will ship with a custom console dashboard.

The Bar ScenebySubmissiveDove©
MMM...I walk in,
Wearing a short skirt, and a shirt that's very thin,
High heeled sandals and no bra,
NO panties...I bend over and you can see it all,
I look back and smile coyly at you,
Flippantly daring you to do what you want to,
My long red hair is pinned back,
I order a drink and let out a small laugh,
I adjust myself on the stool at the bar,
Once again, I look back to where you are,
Running my wet tongue over my red lips...teasing,
Your mind races...thinking just how my mouth could be pleasing,
I turn to face you ...and lean back on the bar,
You can see that my nipples are hard,
I walk over to the jukebox...which is only a few feet away,
I lean forward...and I hear you say...
"Bitch, come here!"
I come close...teasing you and defiantly dump your beer,
I try to walk away,
You growl, "YOU WILL NOT TREAT ME THIS WAY!"
"I know what you want and so do you!"
You pull my ass down square on your lap, I feign anger...and struggle, but you see right through,
I bite the hand that holds me down,
I bolt for the door and look back to see you frown,
You get up to follow chase,
To take me and put me in my place!
I walk slowly down the block,
Thinking you are still in the bar, but you are not,
You are walking,
Watching my skirt tease,
With each step and whisper of a breeze,
In the shadows you follow,
Eyeing every curve every hollow,
Clinching your hands and biting your lips,
Following the swish of my hair and the sway of my hips,
You follow me to my door,
Just as I get it unlocked and step inside, you rush me...knocking me to the floor,
I gasp and I try to scream,
You wrench my arm behind me, I look back, and I see that dangerous gleam,
I see the hunger and rage in your eyes,
I struggle more as I realize,
With all your weight on me...you kick the door shut,
You growl, "You shouldn't tease, you little slut!"
I whimper and start to cry,
You say, "Don't start that, don't even try!"
"You know you want my cock inside of you,
I'm going to own your ass before the night is through!"
You yank me up and take me to the kitchen...and with one swipe you clear the table and lay me down,
Trying to figure it out, you look around,
Ahh..ha...you see electric tape I had used that day,
To fix a shredded cord on my microwave,
With one hand at my throat you reach for the tape,
I kick you and try to escape,
You grab me by my hair,
Saying, "BITCH, you better quit, I don't play fair!"
You slam me back down on the tabletop and you strap my hands together above my head,
My feet you tape down to each table leg...opening them wide....making me spread,
Then you tape my mouth..so no one can hear,
You laugh as you see the fear and notice the tears,
"Little late for that now!"
I have to get away somehow,
You tear my shirt open and my tits fall free,
You lean down, licking and biting my nipples...and you can hear the whimpers of pain coming from me,
This makes you smile and you pull out your cock,
Looking down at me...you get stiff and hot,
You grab a knife from the counter to the right,
Slicing my skirt...displaying me...loving the sight,
After leaving my tits aching and red,
You nip your way down...lowering your head,
I shiver as I feel you between my thighs,
As you start to suck my clit, you turn on the light,
Saying, "Slut, I want to see your face when I make you cum!"
And you will many times before I'm done,
Your tongue lashes out whipping the swollen part of me,
Feeling me grown hot...you slide your tongue inside my pussy,
Tasting the sweet taste of desire,
You just smile, knowing you started the fire,
Then I feel your fingers invading the inner most part of me,
You feel me tense and you increase the speed,
One hand on my throat and the other fucking,
You feel me start to cum...and see my body bucking,
My head is spinning...how can this be?
You are raping me!
You see the bewilderment cross my face,
Before I can recover, your fingers get replaced,
You are teasing me with the head of your cock,
Then you reach up to my mouth and pull the tape off,
I let out a yelp...and you put your cock to my lips,
I try to turn my head, you grab my hair and say, "Suck it BITCH!!,
I take in an inch or two,
Repulsed at first, by the taste of you,
You order, "No playing around, I said SUCK!"
I take you in deeper, my mouth you start to fuck,
Sliding deep into my throat and all the way out again,
You tense and I feel you cum in my throat, I gag and I swallow, then,
I think we are done, through,
I relax and you see it, "Oh NO BITCH, I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!"
Wondering what will happen next,
You untape my legs and carry me to the bed,
My hands are still bound,
You throw me down,
You crawl on top of me,
Your eyes peering down with intensity,
You hand goes between my legs and you spread them wide,
Then your hands go to my hips and you shove your cock deep inside,
You leer down at me and say,"Your mouth was made to suck,
And your body begs to be fucked! "
You are grunting and slamming into me hard, I start to thrash and moan,
You pump me harder letting out a groan,
You feel the hot stickiness run down your shaft,
I look up at you, my body's spent, you let out a laugh,
I look down and see your cock is still hard, I know you aren't through,
Wondering what is next...what will you do,
You stand, grabbing me by the ankles, you flip me over onto all fours,
And you tell me, "I'm going to fuck you like you never been fucked before!
I feel you start to tease my ass,
And I plead as I look back,
"Please, don't do this,"
"TURN AROUND AND SHUT UP BITCH!"
You plunge deep into my virgin ass, and you let out a groan,
"You are so tight" I scream and I moan,
I start to black out the pain is so intense,
You grab my hair and pull my head back....the fucking commences,
One hand in my hair and the other on my back,
You grind into me...claiming my ass,
The pain starts to ease into an ache,
You let go of my hair, put both hands on my hips, You slam into me, saying, "Let's see how much you can take,"
With that, you pump my ass hard and deep,
Grinning with satisfaction, knowing you have claimed every part of me,
You grab me back the neck...as you give me one more thrust...and cum deep inside,
Glad it's over I lean back into you, and you say,"Now, you're mine!"
I shrug, not understanding...and you turn me over...,
"I own your ass, there will be no other,"
I will chain you and tame you,
I will make you submit,
To me, your body, mind, and soul, you will commit,
Your body fits mine like a glove,
I own you, you are mine, Dove!"

Brain Abnormalities in Type 1 Diabetes: Magnetoencephalographic Evidence
Presentation Number: MON 633
Date of Presentation: April 3rd, 2017
Kaitlin G Brau*1, Tony W Wilson2, Andjela T Drincic1, Cyrus V Desouza1 and Christine M Embury2
1University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE, 2University of Nebraska Medical Center
Complications of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1 DM) include cognitive dysfunction, in addition to micro and macrovascular disease. The process by which cognitive dysfunction occurs is largely unknown, however glucose hemostasis and related vasculature effects may be contributing factors (1). Magnetoencephalography (MEG), a noninvasive functional neuroimaging tool that directly evaluates neural activity by measuring the magnetic fields that naturally emanate from electrically active brain cells (2), has been developed to better study brain abnormalities.
We hypothesized that MEG brain function parameters would be abnormal in patients with T1 DM when compared to a control group and would correlate with metabolic parameters between the two groups.
To evaluate this hypothesis, a cross sectional case control study was performed. A total of 62 participants, 32 patients with T1 DM and 30 controls, completed a computerized battery of neuropsychological assessments and cognitive tasks. Inclusion criteria for patients with T1 DM were diabetes duration for 1-25 years, limited to patients ages 19-35. Patients with micro and macrovascular disease, untreated thyroid or vitamin B12 deficiency, and major neurologic and psychiatric disease were excluded. Demographics, medical history, and glucose data was gathered via questionnaire. Routine blood work, including hemoglobin A1c, was obtained. The two groups were matched based on age, sex, ethnicity, handedness, education level, and BMI. Sixteen patients with T1 DM and 16 controls (n = 32) performed a specific verbal working memory task while seated in the MEG instrument. During this task, participants first viewed a visual array containing 4-6 letters, which disappeared after 2 seconds. Three seconds later, a new letter was shown. Participants were asked to identify if it was one of the original 4-6 letters. Patient accuracy and reaction time were collected simultaneously with the MEG brain imaging data through a button box connected to the MEG system. The imaging data were analyzed using a voxel-wise mass univariate approach based on the general linear model.
The mean age of our T1 DM subjects and controls, was 25.4 and 26.0 years, respectively. Average duration of diabetes was 12.5 years. Average hemoglobin A1c was 8.2%. The results from this working memory task test showed that participants with T1 DM performed about 5% worse when compared to controls, and showed abnormal neural activity (p < 0.05, corrected) in brain regions known to serve verbal working memory function (e.g., left parietal and supramarginal gyrus).
In conclusion, cognitive and neurological function were significantly impaired in subjects with T1 DM versus the control group. These findings in this young population may suggest that the cognitive impairment seen in T1 DM begins early on and is related to diabetes-related factors rather than confounding factors.

Everybody moans about politicians, everybody says that they’re useless, well where do they think these government officials originate from? They don’t leave the atmosphere, they don’t move through a cloud of another proximity, they arise from English guardians and English families, English homes, English schools, English houses of worship, English organizations and English Universities and they’re chosen by English citizens.
Is this is the best we can do people, is this is what we have to give, is this what our system offers, rubbish in, rubbish out, if you have narrow-minded uninformed taxpayers, you’re going to get greedy moronic leaders and you’re going to end up with a group of self-centered shallow British people. So perhaps it’s not the politicians that are useless, perhaps it’s something else that is useless, like the people.
There’s a subtle campaign trademark, the public sucks, fuck your dreams. Since, if it’s indeed the fault of all these politicians, then where are all these brilliant people of morals? Where are all these brilliant, respectable, intelligent British people, ready to step in, and protect the country and guide the way?
They don’t have people like that in England, everybody’s at the shopping centre, scratching his arse, picking his nose, taking his credit card out of his pocket, and getting a pair of trainers, therefore voting is insignificant because Britain was bought, sold and paid for a long time ago, the shit they shuffle around every five years doesn’t mean a thing.
And if you do vote, you have no right to protest, and people like to spin that around, they say, if you don’t vote, you have no right to protest, but where’s the reasoning in that? If you vote and you elect corrupt, inept people, they get into government and screw everything up, then you are accountable for what they have done.
You caused the problem, you voted them in, you have no right to complain, those on the other hand who did not vote are in no way responsible for what these people have done, and have every reason to complain about the mess the voters created.

Nausea and Vomiting
Patrick O’Neil, PA
Nausea and vomiting is an extremely common ailment that I see in the Family Practice and Urgent Care setting. I would also frequently see this in the Emergency Room, but in the vast majority of instances, this is definitely NOT an Emergency Room condition. (See the article on Emergency Room vs Urgent Care)
What Causes Nausea and Vomiting?
Nausea and Vomiting can be caused by food poisoning, a virus, or a simple shift of the natural intestinal flora. It is normally self-limiting, IF you listen to what your intestines are trying to tell you. The bottom line here is that even though Nausea and Vomiting will make you feel absolutely terrible, it can normally be handled without an expensive visit to the doctor’s office.
The patient suffering from nausea and vomiting will come in with a complaint of:
► Nausea that may have occurred up to 24 hours before actual vomiting
► Loss of Appetite
► Abdominal Cramping
► Possible fever
► The most obvious sign will be vomiting
► You may hear the stomach grumbling a lot, or you may not hear any noise at all. No noise at all can be a sign of something more serious, so observe this carefully.
► There will most likely be tenderness when you press on the area where the stomach is located. If you have a child and you press in the lower right abdomen and they have pain, this may be more than just simple vomiting. It could be appendicitis.
► If there is a lot of pain that seems more than a simple bout of vomiting, seek medical attention.
The vast majority of nausea and vomiting is self-limiting, IF we adhere to some simple basics. The body is trying to tell you that it cannot handle food at the moment. I like to explain it this way: Your digestive system cannot multi-task. It can only do one thing at a time. It is either going to digest food, or try to fix whatever is ailing it. If you keep trying to introduce food to a “bad tummy,” then your stomach is going to let you know it is not happy with your decision by sending it right back up. So here is how I treat Nausea and Vomiting.
► GI rest for 24-36 hours: This means we are going to rest the gastrointestinal tract by withholding solid food. You can live for weeks without food, we just aren’t used to doing that, so we don’t like to withhold it. This is absolutely key to resolving this condition. I promise you….if you keep eating you will prolong the misery by several days.
► Push fluids to maintain hydration: We may be able to go a couple weeks without food, but we can only go a few days without water. It is crucial that you maintain your hydration. We do this by using the “sippy diet.” You will take small sips to try and sneak the water by your stomach. You don’t want to take large gulps of water and have it land in the stomach with a lot of force. Your stomach won’t like that, and will send it right back up.
Fluids that are OK to drink:
• Pedialyte (yes, it’s even good for adults, not just kids)
• PowerAde or Gatorade, but it is too strong in its original form. Dilute it 50:50 with water to weaken it a bit.
• If you absolutely feel the need to eat something, then maybe a little Jell-O and/or a Popsicle
Fluids to avoid:
• Caffeine Products: Coffee, tea, etc.
• Fruit juices: Lots of acid and they can actually worsen your symptoms
• Milk products
► Over-the-counter Meclizine can be helpful to control the nausea.
► Once you have stopped vomiting and are feeling better, you may notice that your stomach will start having a very strong sensation of hunger. This is a good sign that you are ready to start advancing your diet.
► Advancing your diet. Do this in the order I describe, and things should go fine. If you advance it too quickly you may start having the nausea and vomiting all over again.
• Start with dry toast or crackers and eat a very small amount. The idea is to give the stomach something easy to digest and see if it is ready to accept food. If this stays down, then you can proceed to the next step.
• BRAT Diet: Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, and Toast. Again, small amounts but can be done frequently.
• Soups that are low sodium. A lot of sodium can cause an osmotic diarrhea, so make sure it is low on the salt.
• Pastas: I like Spaghetti because I can limit the amount of spicy tomato sauce. Spaghetti noodles digest very easily, but you definitely want to avoid any heavy sauces like Alfredo.
• Meats: These are the most difficult thing to digest, so save these for last
NOTE: if you notice the nausea is returning at any time while you are advancing your diet, simply back up a step or two and give the tummy more time to heal.
When to seek medical attention
With nausea and vomiting, I tend to tell folks they need to seek medical attention when:
► They have protracted vomiting: In other words, it just won’t stop. Children will sometimes have vomiting that just will not stop until they are given a fairly strong medication. You can lose a lot of potassium with vomiting and this can cause very serious metabolic issues with your acid base system. People have actually died from losing too much potassium. If the person doesn’t seem to be slowing down with their vomiting, or if they are retching so hard you think they are going to “throw up their toenails,” or they have the dry heaves for a minute or so and only bring up some green-colored bile; these are all signs the person should go to an Urgent Care.
► Inability to hold liquids down. Fluid replacement is important and if they absolutely cannot hold liquids down at all, they may need an IV to get them rehydrated. Look at their urine. If the urine is clear to straw-colored, they are hydrated very well. If their urine is yellow, that shows they are still OK. If their urine is dark, that is a sign they are dehydrated and need fluids. That means they either get the liquid through the mouth in a sippy diet, or they need it through an IV. The pulse can also tell you if they are dehydrated. Typically, anything over 100 is a pretty good sign they may be dehydrated. Most Urgent Care facilities can provide IV’s if needed. I would call ahead to verify that they have that capability before driving over.
► Severe pain in the patient’s right upper abdomen. This could be a sign of a bad gall bladder. Go to the Emergency Room if you have Right Upper Quadrant pain. They will need to do an Ultrasound and Urgent Care facilities don’t normally have one.
► Severe pain in the patient’s right lower abdomen. This could be a sign of appendicitis. You will need to go to an Emergency Room for this because most Urgent Care facilities do not have the appropriate imaging devices to ascertain whether or not you have appendicitis.
► Pain that you would consider out of proportion to a simple episode of nausea and vomiting. Always err on the side of caution. If you have to think for more than a few seconds about whether or not you should take somebody to an Urgent Care or ER, then you should probably take them.
The last thing I want to mention is this: The best treatment for nausea and vomiting is through prevention! This means frequent handwashing, ensuring your food preparation areas are free from germs, and that your food is cooked to the appropriate temperatures and maintained at the appropriate temperature after preparation. Be smart when eating out and selecting your meal. However, should you tempt fate and it doesn’t work out in your favor; you can always use the tips above to help you get through it.
