Beautiful historic building with a lovely 425-seat theater, a gym space and a meeting room.
For concerts, dance recitals, lectures and more!
A nice venue for concerts. It has parking, but not enough space. You can park in the street.
Great acoustics, great sight lines, concessions are super limited with no healthy options other than veggie straws and water, no hot beverages, parking limited on crowded days, need to reserve a spot in advance which comes with valet service which is nice. Enjoyed it, would love to come see more shows at this venue.

This discussion brings together two facets of disability studies: (1) identity development theory and (2) the role of the built environment as an agent of empowerment/disempowerment. The discussion is set in the rural south, a place of dualities. The “South” is both a fact of history and an imagined myth. It is often romanticized in literature and mocked in popular media. It is a region that is easily stereotyped and yet remains understudied. Exploring housing in the South reveals the complex and often interlocking meanings of race, poverty, and disability in the modern United States, and illustrates the reciprocal relationships between social identity and the built environment.

The life cycle costing process can be simple as a table of expected annual costs or it can be a complex model that allows for the creation of scenarios based on assumptions about future cost drivers. The scope and complexity of the life cycle cost analysis should generally reflect the complexity of the assets under investigation, the ability to predict future costs and the significance of the future costs to the decision being made by the organisation.
This course take delegates through the six steps of LCC which are “Problem Definition”, “Cost Elements definition”, “System Modelling”, “Data Collection”, Cost Profile Development” and “Evaluation”.

Aunt Marie Dillon's Praline Cookies! No, I have no idea who Marie Dillon is but I owe her thanks for these cookies. (I found the recipe on MarthaStewart.com, so maybe she's Martha's aunt??) These praline cookies are very flat, yet still they are very chewy. Topped with a fudgy praline icing. The cookies themselves were very tasteful, so tasteful they really didn't need any icing. In fact, I preferred them without it. They are sure to give you a sugar-rush so be careful there ;)! Rating: 3 out of 5.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and 1 ½ cups light-brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla. Beat until fully combined. Add dry ingredients, and beat on low speed until combined.
- Drop batter in rounded teaspoons onto ungreased baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake until firm and barely golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes, then transfer cookies from pan to wire rack.
- In a small saucepan, combine remaining 1 cup light-brown sugar and cream. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add confectioners' sugar, and whisk until smooth. (If frosting thickens, thin with cream.) Add pecan pieces. Place cookies on a cooling rack over a lined baking pan. Spoon about ½ teaspoon praline mixture onto each cookie.
Tablespoons heaped on a baking sheet.
Despite the irregular shape they had, they came out perfectly uniform out of the oven.
They were really nice, though I could have done without the topping. The topping made them a little too sugary ... even for me!
Oh, no I think the topping perfect. Maybe top it with a whole salty taosted pecan? Maybe it would cut the sweetness.
So good looking cookies! The topping gives them such an unusual any yummy look!

You have an online shop and want to be sure you’re in compliance with the relevant laws. You’ve heard of amendments to consumer protection laws and want to modify your online shop to stay compliant. You distribute products which are covered by special regulations. Or you’re not sure if your product labelling or price display meets legal requirements.
Online selling has to meet extensive obligations in providing information - for example, under the distance selling legislation - as well as specific regulations for e-commerce. You not only have to inform consumers correctly of their right to cancel orders, you have to comply with a whole range of other regulations and obligations to ensure that your online shop is in compliance and secure against warning procedures.

Catecholamine activity and reported morbidity.
Abstract: Urinary VMA levels were measured in relation to the reporting of morbidity in an attempt to determine whether altered catecholamine activity is related to specific disease syndromes, or is a general characteristic of morbidity. The cross-sectional data show elevated VMA levels to be associated with the reporting of chronic disease conditions; non-chronic conditions and affective disorders were associated with lower VMA values, Although these findings are interpreted as supporting the hypothesis that psycho-social stimuli acting through the sympathetic-adrenal medullary system may be important in the etiology of chronic disease conditions, alternative explanations are discussed and the need for further longitudinal studies indicated.
Journal of Chronic Disease, 29:773-783, 1976.

When you are serious about cooking, you collect plenty of recipes from many sources. OrganizEat is a well thought-out tool that let us get our recipes organized and it gets used everyday at our house. We had hundreds of printed recipes that we scanned and uploaded into the program over a few hours. This is sort of a brute force approach, but we had computer print outs, hand written notes, index cards and random scraps of paper that we are now able to find quickly. There are better ways to get recipes into OrganizEat that we also use, you can import recipes directly from many sites like Serious Eats, Bon Appétit, New Your Times and others. Other sites that are not directly supported by the app can be used by snapping pictures within the app. Of course you can also type your recipes and add photos too. The developers are working to add other ways to import and additional features to the app, I had contacted them with a question and they were very responsive and open to future improvements. This is not the cheapest app out there, but you get what you are paying for.
I really love this app. I am so glad I bought it when it wasn’t $25 or I’d be missing out on this awesomeness!! My only (well I have 3) hope/s would be that you guys made a computer version that I could upload recipes to from the computer. I hate browsing on my computer to find lots of things I want to save but can’t unless I text the site to myself and then go to my phone or iPad. I want to just be able to log in and add to from my computer.
I also hope you guys are working on adding more places that you will accept recipes from but love that I can add them if it doesn’t automatically upload. I’d love the feature “copy me that” has that I can automatically upload from the actual site. The 3 times I’ve tried it tells me it’s not supported ...leading me to one final request. Recipes are starting to become longer now when they add a “how to change it to cook it in the ....(instant pot, crockpot..)” making the recipe longer than a 3 photo shot option. I need the chance to screenshot the whole recipe and sometimes 3 just isn’t enough. I’d like to see up to 10 if possible.
Hi, and thank you for this warm feedback, and the suggestions for improvement! I am so glad to hear that you love the app :) About your request for additional photos: the reason we limit the number of photos is storage space. We are offering a cloud backup and sync service as part of the app, and additional photos storage has substantial cost for us. Therefore, the Extra Photos are available as an additional premium feature in the app (which is not part of the regular "Full Version" upgrade that covers 3 photos per recipe.) It's available in the app's Settings -> Premium Features. The small package allows adding 2 more photos per recipe (making it a total of 5), and the large package allows adding 5 more photos per recipe (making it a total of 8). Also, we would like to use the opportunity and explain our pricing policy better here. The Full Version app's price is not $25, it is $5.99/year :-) The reason we charge annual subscription is storage costs. We offer a sync & backup account for the recipes, as part of the app. The recipes are mostly photos (or screenshots), and long term storage of so many high resolution images, has substantial costs for us. This is why we must charge for it repeatedly every year. However, since we received many emails from people who strongly dislike subscription: we decided to give it a try and release a fully pre-paid alternative as well. It's price was set to be equal to 4-5 years of subscription, this is our current initial estimate for covering the average image hosting costs of a user - and this is price that you are mentioning in your review. This relatively "high" price, is actually for many years of the subscription in adnvance. But here is no need really to purchase the whole 5 years of in advance. You can always pay the yearly packeage that costs 5 time less than the lifetime price you quoted, without any long term commitments. If you don't like the app: you cancel your subscription, and you will not be charged anything more.
I've had the free version of the app for a few weeks and have had great success with it. But when I considered buying the $20 full version versus the $4 yearly subscription, the subscription clearly seemed like the way to go, since there aren't many apps I can say I've used for at least 5 years. But you can only buy the $20 version through the App Store; the $4 version you buy through the app by putting in your iTunes password. That's basically like me saying, "I'll give you $16 in exchange for a password linked to your credit card!" Nice app and all, but I don't trust you that much! So do everyone a solid and make the subscription available for purchase through iTunes, mmkay?
Thank you for leaving such a detailed review. So glad to hear you like the app! About the payment model, we think there is a confusion here, that we would like to correct. The yearly subscription purchase of the Full Version is managed by the iTunes Appstore, not by us. It is an in-app purchase, and the mechanism for it works the same as with any in-app purchase: the dialog where you are prompted to enter your password is a standard iTunes dialog. They are handling and processing the payment, the developers have no access to it. We do not store neither your credit card number nor your iTunes password in our system. Even if we would want to do that (and we don't!), we couldn't. It is against the Appstore rules, and the app wouldn't get Apple's approval if we would try to do something like this. In-app purchases made from apps are processed by iTunes exactly the same as purchases of fully prepaid apps. Again, it is simply the mandatory Appstore policy that all apps must follow.
About your second suggestion: thank you for the feedback. We would like to point out there is also an option to add a recipe to you own "Favorites". It's not exactly a rating system, but it perhaps it is a partial solution for your needs. Rachel.

A walk down memory lane….with the Ramones.
Filed under culture, Entertainment, Fame, Guitar, History, love, Music, Stacy Alexander and tagged LIFE | Comments Off on Seems like yesterday….
It is difficult not to notice the increased appeal in pet furniture and pet-related projects worldwide. In today’s post we would like to show you this instantly-endearing dog trailer design, envisioned by Judson Beaumont of Straight Line Designs Inc. The Pet Trailer Series includes four unique dog-sized trailers made from environmentally-friendly materials, including recyclable aluminum, plywood and plastic. Colorful and pretty, these “accommodation units” are not just functional, but serve a decorative purpose as well, adding aesthetic value to contemporary courtyards.
Each of the pet trailers is fully customizable. According to the official description provided by the designer, various finishes can be used for interior wall colors and flooring, such as hardwood, carpet or tile, and there’s always the adorable personalized license plate. For an added bit of comfort and luxury, the pet trailer can even have a lighted interior and wireless speakers. Unfortunately, we could not find information regarding the cost of the trailers, but you can contact the designer directly if you have any further questions.

Aspire Health, a Nashville, TN-based provider of in-home services for patients diagnosed with serious illnesses, has experienced a phishing attack that resulted in the email account of an employee being accessed by an unauthorized individual.
Once access to the email account was gained, the attacker forwarded 124 emails to an external email account. Several of the forwarded email messages contained the protected health information of patients and “confidential and proprietary information and files”.
According to a statement issued by a spokesperson for Aspire Health, breach notification letters have already been sent to a “small handful” of its patients, although the exact number affected by the breach has not been disclosed. The data breach has yet to appear on the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office for Civil Rights’ breach portal.
As is the case with many phishing scams, an email was sent to the employee which contained a hyperlink to a website which requested login credentials. The website, created on August 28, 2018, is hosted in the Russian Federation and was accessed by the employee on or around September 3, 2018. The employee’s email account was breached on September 3. The website has since been marked as potentially malicious by Google.
Aspire Health has launched an internal investigation into the breach, is attempting to determine whether any of the forwarded PHI has been accessed and is trying to identify the individual responsible for the attack. Part of that process has involved filing a federal court motion to get Google to reveal more information about the hacker.
The email account to which the messages were forwarded is a Gmail account and Aspire Health believes that Google could provide vital information that could allow the hacker to be identified and also help to determine whether any of the forwarded messages have been opened. According to The Tennessean, Aspire Health made informal attempts to get Google to release information about the owner of the website and the subscriber to the email account but was advised that a subpoena would be required.
Should Aspire Health’s efforts prove successful, the attacker could be identified; however, bringing that individual to justice for the attack is likely to be a much more difficult task.

Motorcar Parts of America (MPA) has announced results for its fiscal 2019 third quarter ended Dec. 31, 2018 – reflecting record sales for both the quarter and nine months on a reported and adjusted basis, and investments to support new business, product line expansion, and continued growth.
“The company is at an important inflection point in its multi-year strategy to expand market share within existing and new product categories. We are encouraged by our growth and the progress we are making with our new product lines, as well as the build-out and ramp-up of our existing and expanding facilities,” said Selwyn Joffe, chairman, president and CEO.
Net loss for the fiscal 2019 third quarter was $3.1 million, or 16 cents per share – reflecting the impact of the items listed below compared with net loss of $2.5 million, or 13 cents per share, a year ago.
Adjusted net income for the fiscal 2019 third quarter was $6.7 million, or 35 cents per diluted share, compared with $7.9 million, or 41 cents per diluted share, a year earlier.
“Other than the wage inflation and higher freight costs, these margin headwinds are expected to reverse in the next fiscal year. With respect to offshore wage inflation, we are evaluating alternative operating efficiencies and pricing strategies,” Joffe said.
Net sales for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period increased 11.7 percent to $343.7 million from $307.8 million a year earlier. Adjusted net sales for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period increased 9.5 percent to $343.6 million from $313.7 million last year. Net loss for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period was $5.1 million, or 27 cents per share, compared with net income of $10.9 million, or 56 cents per diluted share, in fiscal 2018. Adjusted net income for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period was $21.2 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, compared with $26.5 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, in fiscal 2018.
Gross profit for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period was $63.2 million compared with $77.9 million a year earlier. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period was 18.4 percent compared with 25.3 percent a year earlier. Adjusted gross profit for the fiscal 2019 nine-month period was $89.8 million compared with $90.8 million a year ago. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of adjusted net sales for the nine months was 26.1 percent compared with 28.9 percent a year earlier.
Effective April 1, 2018, the company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (ASC 606) using the full retrospective transition method. As a result, the prior year three and nine months ended Dec. 31, 2017, were revised to reflect the adoption of the new revenue recognition accounting standards. The effects of the adoption were an increase to previously reported revenues for the three and nine months ended Dec. 31, 2017, of $1,165,000 and $1,029,000, respectively. The revenue changes were accompanied by related changes to cost of goods sold – an increase to previously reported cost of goods sold for the three and nine months ended Dec. 31, 2017, of $984,000 and $225,000, respectively.
Also, as a result of the adoption of ASC 606 and the resultant changes in company policy, the effect on the consolidated balance sheets was to create contract asset and contract liability accounts to document those balance sheet items being impacted by the new revenue recognition requirements. Additional information will be available in the company’s Form 10-Q filing.

This piece was originally created for my dear friend, Renea. She had asked for a sun and moon tattoo, and though it took me some time to do it, this is what followed the creation of the moon.
The colors are of a brilliant blue and sunny sky, with the sun face and rays in bright copper with gold and silver highlights. The flowers and leaves within the rays and in the painted border represent the life giving power of the sunlight and the renewal that comes each dawn.
These are limited editions of 150 giclee / fine art prints of the original painting. The limited edition print is 16" x 16", and is printed on Somerset Velvet 100% cotton watercolor paper with 100% archival pigment inks. The print will have a 1" white border surrounding it so that it can be trimmed if necessary to fit a frame, or, can go in a larger frame.
The original "Renea's Sun" has been sold. The piece was painted with Dr. PH. Martin’s Spectralite Private Collection Acrylic Inks, on Fabriano Artistico Hot Press 300gsm 100% cotton paper.
» Note: Images that show the artwork in a room, are for example display purposes only, and do not accurately reflect the size of the print, matting, or indicate that the print includes a frame.

This latest 1/48 upgrade set from Barracuda Studios is for the recent Airfix 1/48 Sea Fury. It is a set of wheels with the block tread pattern. Though made for the Airfix kit, you could easily use this on the Hobbycraft or Trumpeter offering as well. The set comes with separate center sections on the outside. This is to differentiate between those wheels with the uplock hook and those without it. These must be installed in a specific angle depending on the side they are placed. The full color instructions will spell all this out for you if you choose to use this feature. Casting is top notch and I know you'll be pleased.
The set comes with full color instructions. Well worth getting.

My thanks to www.barracudacast.com for the review set. You can get this item at this link.

It is God’s desire that everyone believes on Him for salvation (1 Timothy 2:4) and that is our desire as well. God sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for us (John 3:15-17) and anyone who believes on Jesus will be saved (Romans 10:9,10,13). Jesus paid the penalty for our sin and made salvation and eternal life His free gift to us!
In Hebrews 10:25 Paul reminds us not to forsake the “assembly of ourselves together…and so much the more as you see the day approaching.” This applies to our Sunday church attendance but also meeting together in life groups. We believe life groups are a great way to study God’s Word and grow in fellowship with one another.
We take the command of “Go ye into all the world…” (Mark 16:15) as the basis of our local and worldwide missions efforts. We are honored to financially support missionaries all over the world including Chili, the Philippines, Russia, Israel, India, England, Japan, and many more countries. Locally we support Child Evangelism Fellowship, Life Centers, Heritage Baptist College, and Advance, a church planting ministry.

Wikipedia defines Jojoba Oil as "the liquid produced in the seed of the Simmondsia chinensis (Jojoba) plant, a shrub, which is native to southern Arizona, southern California, and northwestern Mexico." It is pronounced ho-ho-ba.
We have a picture on our home page of jojoba plants on our farm in La Paz County, Arizona so you can see what the plant looks like. It is now grown all over the world in desert types of climates.
We are growing jojoba plants on our farms in the Mojave Desert in Southern California and the Sonora Desert in Southern Arizona.
In the 1960's the Sperm Whale was being widely hunted for its oil for use in many products including health care and cosmetics. In 1971 the US banned importing of whale oil. It was discovered that jojoba oil had many of the same properties as whale oil, and was actually superior in many ways. That was really the beginning of use of jojoba oil in the cosmetics industry.
Today a large portion, possibly as much as 90% of the world wide jojoba oil production is used in the cosmetic industry.
"This natural liquid [jojojba oil] is wonderful for all skin types, especially sensitive skin. It leaves skin soft and luxurious but not greasy because it penetrates to maintain a perfect moisture level. Jojoba is healing as well as anti-aging."
All our skincare products contain jojoba oil. We love to use it because of how it feels on the skin and how we feel after we use it.
We are also experimenting with using jojoba beads as an exfoliant. So we will give you an update later on that.
Thank you for your interest in our jojoba oil skincare products.

Warning - this takes awhile to load, a lot of images.
Every position had a number. Here is where the cannon crew stood preparing to load cannon. Every man was trained to do any position. "G" is the gunner, usually a corporal.
Cannoners..Post!! There are other commands sometimes given in battle, but this is the usual procedure.
At the command "Solid shot! Load! " #1 gets the rammer sponge and wets the sponge end in a water pail. This is important because before putting a live round into the barrel, it is important to extinguish any fire that may be in the barrel from the last firing. #2 steps inside and prepares to receive the round. #3 put his finger over the vent hole in the cannon. (see next) #4 prepares his equipment. And the gunner moves the cannon left or right with the hand spike.
#3 has on his left thumb a thumbstall. On the back of the cannon is a vent that he must cover while #1 pushes the sponge rammer into the cannon. If not, any remaining powder may ignite and #1 looses an arm. The cannon gets very hot, thus the leather thumbstall.
The #5 man delivers the round to number 2. Note #2 has his back to the enemy to protect the round from being hit by a bullet.
After #2 loads the round in the barrel and steps back, #1 rams it home. Notice #3 is still covering the vent hole. Even though the barrel has been sponged, there still exists the chance sparks could ignite the powder bag, that is part of the round. If this happens, the rammer, and the right arm of #1 are heading toward the enemy. When finished #1 steps out.
Number #3 now steps back to the hand spike for any last minute corrections by the gunner. The gunner has been sighting the weapon during this time, by raising or lowering the barrel.
The gunner gives a touchdown signal that tells #3 he is set. Much of the procedure is done by drill, using signal's, not sounds. Battle noise would drown out many commands, endangering the crew.
#4 has prepared a friction primer and attached it to his lanyard. The wire pulls thru the primer, and sends a flame down into the powderbag. The explosion sends the projectile down field.
After the hole has been poked, #4 sticks the friction primer into the vent hole, #3 places his hand over the lanyard. As #4 backs away to stretch the lanyard, #3 makes sure if #4 trips and pulls at the lanyard, the cannon does not prematurley go off. If #4 does start to trip, he drops his end of the lanyard immediately.
Upon reaching the end of the lanyard, #4 sets his feet and shakes his head to #3. This tells #3 it is clear to step back to his position.
#4 turns away from the cannon to protect himself from the snapping lanyard. #1 and #2 watch the end of the barrel to ensure the cannon fires. In battle, smoke and noise sometimes disguised the individual cannon firing noise. It was absoluitely necessary to make sure the cannon fired.
"Fire!" Right at you! Many infrantymen saw this very thing as they marched forward. Very few, if any, lived to tell about it.
Notice the puff of smoke coming out the vent hole in the back. Notice #1's water bucket under the cannon. There is also an extra rammer-sponge on the cannon.
#6 and #7 observe the firing. It was their job to get the round that is specified by the gunner, set the fuse if necesssary, and give it to #5.
Spherical case (shell) - ball that explodes in the air, spraying troops with shrapnel. A fuse ignited inside the exploding cannon, is what makes it explode. The fuse length tells how far it will go before exploding.
Between the explosive powder, and the actual round, is a round piece of wood called a sabot. Sabot comes from the French word meaning "wooden shoe". French millworkers, protesting modern mechanization, would cast their wooden shoes into the new machinery, breaking them down. Thus came the word, sabotage.

If you are looking for a super quick Mediterranean Diet side dish recipe that will satisfy everyone then you have come to the right place! Spinach with feta and lemon takes about 10 minutes to make, is ridiculously delicious and will go with just about any main dish whether it’s chicken, fish, meat or beans. Serve this with warm, crusty bread for sopping up the olive oil and pot liquor.
This is a great dish for leftovers as well. I always make extra so I can have it with a salad and some bread for lunch the next day.
From the book “Foods of Crete: Traditional Recipes from the Healthiest People in the World” by Koula Barydakis and Bill Bradley, R.D.
Boil spinach in 1 cup water for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain well in colander.
In a bowl, mix spinach and rest of ingredients. Serve while still warm.
I made a similar side of this, but sautéed the onions in olive oil. Used frozen leaf spinach, added after onions cooked. Added some chopped pistachios, fresh nutmeg, feta and lemon. My new go to side. Trying to incorporate more of a Mediterranean diet..
Sounds great. Thanks for using our recipe as inspiration for your own version!

What are page titles why you should use them properly.
Titles are a factor when it comes to rankings within the search engines. The titles will help the engines understand what your page is about. Title tags are mainly used for search engine results pages in Google, Yahoo! and Bing as well as web browsers and shares on social networks. Below I will go over how title tags are used for each.
When you're typing up your title tag you will want to have your keywords in it to let the search engines know what you're all about. This is also a factor when rankings for specific keywords, but not the only factor. Having a nicely written title doesn't necessarily mean it will be used for your search engine listings, but it's a good start. When writing your titles, you need to focus on how people will read them and if they will want to click through since that's the main objective.
When you have a bunch of tabs open in Firefox, Chrome, Opera, etc. you will notice that the title of the page shows up in the tab. If you're optimizing your titles correctly then it will show a keyword within the tab on your browser and people can use that in order to remember exactly where your page is if they have a lot of tabs opened at the same time. Some people like adding their domain name at the beginning for their titles for this reason, but I still stick to having a keyword at the beginning.
Have you ever noticed that when you, or some random person, shares your website it will pull the title of that page and add it to what is displayed? When you want to add titles you need to remember that people will read them and not just the search engines. You will need to have the written in a way to encourage people to click on them since social sharing is huge in todays world and you could be making a killing through facebook, twitter, and other social media platforms. If your titles are not writte well, or not at all, and you share a specific page or homepage of your website it will show what it wants. I've actually seen some shares post random snippets from the footer of a websites homepage because they did not write up the proper titles. It's an easy thing to do, so do it right the first time and not worry later on.
Titles and tags are so important! I can not stress this enough! In this day and age, there is so much content out there that people only take a glance at the titles to figure out if they want to check the all thing or not. If you don't have an engaging title your less likely to attract costumers. Plus, getting the right title and tags makes your targeted consumer more likely to find your content.
We should be very careful when adding titles to our web pages. The title should be informative and attractive enough to be read by visitors. It does not take much time of us to write a good title but it has a positive effect forever. The title is the most important part of the content as it appears in the search engine results are it is the most considerable thing in it.
Easy to read and informative title for your pages. That’s a good advice because I have been encountering web pages with not so good titles. I will not elaborate on that. What I mean is some titles I see are like cryptograms huh. Particularly for a blog that usually have the blog title as the title of the page, I guess it’s not much of an issue. But for some websites that is not a blog, I’m sure the page titles would matter especially when the reader is trying to retrieve a page that he had read and wanted to read again.

Those who follow my blog will recognise some of these as the subjects of my recent photos. The composition came about quite by accident. You see, as I was photographing the individual flowers, I was standing them up, side by side, on a bench when I was finished. As I added the orchid on the right to the lineup, I thought to myself that this ‘lineup’ might be interesting as an image as well.
The composition was quite simple but to balance the light across all these colours and textures without one or another dominating the image was a bit of a challenge.
It seems to have worked out and I’m pleased with the result. However, titling the image proved difficult, so I stuck with something simple and appropriate. I hope you like it.

A step back in time, to a simpler, less ornate door than I have presented recently. This door can be found at Toronto’s Black Creek Pioneer Village, a collection of heritage buildings from the Toronto area, assembled to represent Toronto’s pioneer past.
I like the simple line and practicality of this door to the Broom Maker’s Shop, circa 1844. The building was moved here from Sherwood , Ontario and has an active interpretive centre. I’ve had some good conversations with the broom maker in the past and love the simple design of this building with its wonderful door and windows.
With the door open and the light coming through the window, it provides a glimpse of the interior.

A simple presentation of a sunflower blossom. I say simple, yet on further viewing, it is so also so intricately complex. From the shape of the petals, to the beautiful patterns on the face. Not to mention the radiant colour of the blossom itself. I’ve quoted Georgia O’Keefe her a few times, and her insights are so true, the closer you look at flowers, or anything in nature, I mean, REALLY look at it, the more incredible it becomes. It draws you in and you see details that at first you may have missed.
Amazing, isn’ it? The things we miss at first glance.

Something about fall that has always fascinated me is how slow decay, cooler temperatures, and a shorter period of daylight, can change a plant so dramatically.
Recently I came across this dogwood in a local forest. Almost all the leaves show signs of decay, being thoroughly spotted and in some case, even perforated by decay. Then there are the dramatic fuchsia leaves. I look at the companion leaves carefully and don’t see even a hint of that colour in them. It is quite dramatic, especially when the sun filters through the canopy, making the leaves glow.
Then, I think back on the same plant in early summer, leaves freshly formed and glowing green, not a blemish to mar their beauty. They endure a lot through the summer and award us with this wonderful show of colour, with a few blemishes and scars to remind us that the summer can be harsh too.

Dawn arrived cool and crisp, just below freezing, touching the earth with a light frosting. After the warm summer, the lake was still warm and mist hovered above the water in dancing tendrils of gold. Autumn has arrived in Ontario and though I will miss the long warm days, there is something about this snap and freshness in the air that is so invigorating. The heat parched plants of summer almost take on new life and vitality as the mists flow over them.
The light this time of year has a different feel, a warmth that is lacking in the direct sun of summer. As the days shorten, there is a promise of many wonderful moments that await me.

Despite being a bit beat up, this small bouquet of red freesia is still quite lovely. It’s a bit of a ‘rescue’, pulled from a discarded bouquet ,but still wonderful on its own. The leaves have taken a bit of abuse, yet the blossoms are still in good condition.
There is something about this photography style that brings out the best in the subject. I’m convinced that I could photograph a piece of garbage this way and still have it look good. After all, not so long ago, a photo of a potato sold for over a million dollars, presented in the same style.

Though a few have seen better days, these roses still offered me an opportunity to continue experimenting with lighting on these studio shots. I thought the white might pose a challenge but they turned out beautifully, still retaining the soft pink/cream colour perfectly.
I’m finding it’s a matter of controlling the light and keeping it just bright enough to light the subject while keeping the background dark. In this case I also included the vase for a little more interest.

I am still in law school but will be working at a V10 firm in a major market. Recently I have been struggling with some mental health issues and not feeling myself. Over the summer my mother died and I think I am still having issues with that, on top of the law school stress and competitiveness. I felt that after this break I would feel more motivated and refreshed, but I am back at school and absolutely dreading another semester, something I have never felt before. I took 1 year off before law school, if that means anything.
My question is: what impact does seeing a counselor/therapist (especially one provided by the school) have on C&F, as well as anything related to my firm? I know there have been ATL articles about mental health causing issues for many people on the bar. Even a delay I would like to avoid. Is there anything I should know about keeping this from my firm?
Seeing a therapist after your mother dies seems like normal mental health care. The bar and your firm want you to be healthy. You won’t get penalized for getting therapy you need to get well.
I would be sure to get the help you need and not worry about this as a C&F issue.
I’m not sure how your firm would even find out about this.
One more thing - unaddressed mental health issues don’t resolve themselves. The sooner you get help, the better for your treatment.
This won’t even come up on C&f. Absolutely nothing to worry about - do what you need to take care of yourself. As an aside, I’m in biglaw and regularly see a therapist (not work related, just for my mental health and general stuff going on in my life). I make the appointments work, and have never had an issue. I don’t think anyone knows (although may have shared limited details with a few close colleagues), but even if they did I am 100% certain it wouldn’t be an issue.
What would be an issue, however, is not dealing with it and having my mental health impact my work. Long story short - get the help you need, when you need it. It won’t impact c&f or your career. Good luck!
So, my state asked about mental health, but the question read, "Do you currently have any condition or impairment (including, but not limited to, substance abuse, alcohol abuse, or a mental, emotional, or nervous disorder or condition ) that in any way affects your ability to practice law in a competent, ethical and professional manner?" It's pretty open ended, and I think it's arguable that treated/controlled depression/anxiety/other mental health wouldn't need to be reported. And it doesn't ask specifically about getting therapy.
I went through the federal national security background check, and for that, if you've had mental health treatment in a certain length of time you have to disclose and get a letter from your medical provider answering whether your condition/treatment affects your ability to practice. I had had treatment for anxiety/depression, so I had to say yes, but it didn't affect anything at all. And I'm pretty sure there was an exemption for purely situational treatment like grief counseling or marriage counseling, which you didn't have to report at all. Point being, even one of the stricter background checks out there isn't going to see this as a problem.
This is my own experience. I've been suffering from severe mental illness for over 5 years. During law school, I've attempted suicide, involuntarily committed to psych unit, voluntarily committed to psych unit, seen a variety of psychotherapists and psychiatrists, missed many classes, etc. I have a lot more than merely "seeing a counselor" on my medical record. I disclosed everything on C&F and I passed it just like everyone else.
Just remember, even Shon Hopwood (who has robbed 4 banks) can pass C&F, let alone someone who has seen 4 counselors.

I started my new communications consultancy almost a year ago. Since then, I’ve been hard at work delivering a combination of mini-courses, workshops and one-on-one coaching. What’s odd is that although I’ve worked as a freelancer before, I’m learning a whole new set of skills this time around.
a. Negotiate your deliverables in detail. That might sound obvious, because, hey, what are contracts for, right? But I’ve got news for you: contracts can be super vague. Trust me, in my previous job, I wrote them all the time. And especially if you’re working with a client you know well – deliverables can be vague and fuzzy – because, hey, we’re all friends, right? The only person who benefits from a fuzzy deliverable is the person paying for it. It gives them leeway to claim that whatever they are asking you to do – including work neither of you initially discussed – plausibly falls within the contours of the agreement. So be precise. Super precise. And if they ask you to do something that doesn’t match the original deliverable, ask for more money. Which brings us to money.
b. Always charge more than you think you should. A year or so ago, when I was still in the concept development phase for my new company, I got some great advice from the women in my Ellevate squad: if a client accepts your budget up front, you’ve charged too little. Damned straight. Entire books have been written on how to sort out our collective discomfort with asking for money (The Soul of Money is top of my list… ). But once you work throught all of that, you need to remember that you are running a business and that time is money. So there are two reasons to ask for more than you think you should. First, everything in life is a negotiation. However high you come in, they are likely to come back with a lower offer. Adjust for that in advance. Second, when you’re starting out, much of what you’re offering is new. So if, like me, you’re delivering workshops or mini-courses, you need to factor in not only your delivery time, but your prep time. This doesn’t meant you should never charge less than your day rate, once you’ve determined what that is. It might be a client whose name you’d like to see on your resumé. Or it might piece of work you’re so passionate about that you’re willing to charge less. Or, because you’re new to this line of work, you might decide that you’d like to demonstrate how much value you add – and get some testimonials under your belt – before raising your rates. Whatever you do, remember that failure to talk openly about pay usually translates into lower rates.
d. Fake it Til You Make It. When I teach public speaking and my course on life skills for offices, I encourage my students to adopt that adage “Fake it til’ you Make it.” A year or so ago, a friend of mine, who’s also a very seasoned communications consultant, gave me this piece of advice: “Never tell people you ‘could’ do something. Always say that you ‘can.'” And how. Before they hire you, people want to know that you can do something. And chances are, you can, even if you haven’t. So while I never accept work that I don’t think I can deliver to the very highest standard, I have been in the position of saying “Yes I Can.” It’s amazing how empowering those three little words can be. And guess what? Once you’ve done it, you can do it!
e. Learn when to give up. Much like asking for money, it can be very uncomfortable to pester someone to get back to you on work you’ve pitched them. So how often to ping? I used to approach people only three times before giving up. I assumed they just weren’t interested, but were too awkward – or busy – to bother telling me “No.” Then I started asking around. One colleague told me that the magic number is “seven” – assume that your name has simply filtered to the bottom of their inbox and they need a quick reminder. People are busy, after all. Seven sounded high to me, but I tried it. And in one instance, after five tries, I got a gig. Another colleague told me that his approach is to “pester them until they either give you work or tell you to F#$% off.” Works well for him! The one thing I would say is that if someone has made it clear to you that he or she isn’t interested, leave them alone. If you push too hard, it can actually be off-putting and alienate them permanently.
My best advice is to be patient. You won’t make a lot of money during your first year while you build up your portfolio of offerings and client base. But if you remember that “Every Day is Groundhog Day” and persevere, you may end up really glad you sallied forth.
How about you? What advice would you give your newbie entrepreneur/freelancer self?
It’s been a long time since I attended a conference where I found myself looking forward to every single panel. But that was precisely the feeling I had this past Monday, when I attended the launch of The Longevity Forum, the latest organisation to emerge on the UK’s burgeoning ageing scene.
The Longevity Forum takes a two-pronged approach to the demographic realities of a globally ageing population. It is, on the one hand, interested in the potential for current scientific research to extend the lifespan. But it is also focused on the social and behavioural changes needed to adapt to this age of longevity.
We all know the gospel of job-hunting. You don’t get jobs by applying for them; you get them by knowing someone. Some put the number of jobs obtained through networking — as opposed to answering an ad — at as high as 85%.
The corollary to this truism of the job market is that job-hunting is all about connections. Once you decide on a direction for your career, you need to start by talking to people in your immediate network — even if they aren’t all that close to what you want to do — and gradually work outwards, through them, into people working in the sector of your choice.
It’s true. People are more likely to answer your email/phone call if you’ve been referred by someone they know.
But does that mean that you should abandon the cold call entirely? Should you never just get in touch with someone doing work that interests you and see if they’ll let you speak to them?
Sure, extroverts have an easier time approaching strangers out of the blue. But that doesn’t mean they are necessarily better at talking to them.
Quartz recently ran an interesting article arguing that introverts might actually be much better at networking than extroverts because they can focus and listen. And people appreciate that.
You should obviously go to any interview — cold call or not — knowing a fair bit about both the person you’re interviewing and the company they work for. But when you’re doing a cold call, this preparation has to come before you even draft your initial email approach.
When I did this recently, I made a point of telling the person I targeted (truthfully) that I’d been following her newsletter and her blog for a years. I also made reference to something specific on her website. Sure, a bit of flattery is always a good thing. But I also really wanted her to know that I hadn’t just wandered in off of the street.
You’re contacting them because you’ve decided you want to work there and/or think they could help you get closer to your dream job. You want them to talk to you, but they have plenty of reasons not to. You need to be sure it’s clear from the get-go that they won’t be wasting their time.
People are much more likely to respond positively to a cold call if you can convince them that you can help them solve a problem. That doesn’t mean that you should suggest that they hire you in your initial email because you are God’s Gift to X. Far from it. Humility goes a long way.
I’ve found that questions about gaps often prompt the person being interviewed to reflect on their own blind spots, and might even get them thinking about hiring someone to pilot an investigation into a new area. That person could be you.
You never want to go into a meeting — unless it’s a job interview! — and tell someone why they should hire you. Instead, you want to ask smart questions that impress them.
Lately, I’ve been targeting the higher education sector in my job search, offering communication training. I explain to everyone I meet that I “think like a social scientist, but communicate like a journalist.” This is shorthand for saying that I have a PhD, but don’t sound like I do. That’s an unusual skill set, at least in this sector. I play it up because I know it’s what makes me distinctive.
You can’t cold call people if you’re not willing to hear the word “no.” When I first moved to the UK twelve years ago, I volunteered to run the Christmas Raffle at my then-five-year-old’s new school. This amounted to walking around the local village and asking every single shop person I met if they’d be willing to donate a prize to the raffle.
Guess what? A lot of people said some version of “no.” But a surprising number said “yes.” What I learned from that experience was that I didn’t really care if people said “no” to me.
How about you? Have you ever done a successful cold call? Why did it work?
So when I do, they are a real source of rejuvenation for me personally.

Alonso and Ferrari remain untouchable in Italy.
To F-Duct or not to F-Duct? That was the question everyone scrabbled to answer this weekend. During Friday practice sessions, McLaren split strategies with Button running the F-Duct while Hamilton went without it. That meant that Button would be able to drive more comfortably/reckless around the turns while losing slight time on the straights. Button was on the high-downforce setup for the weekend. For Hamilton (without the F-Duct), that meant he would have the advantage during straight line speed over Button but would also have to tip toe precisely through and over the low speed turns, leaving more of a margin for error.
During qualifications Saturday, Hamilton admitted making the wrong decision for not adding the F-Duct to his car for the weekend. It was a no brainer.
Ferrari, Redbull Racing, Williams, Renault, Force India, and BMW Sauber also decided to use the F-Duct.
Seeing the incredible speed coming from Ferrari on Saturday, it was hard to believe they would be nothing but untouchable on Sunday. Massa topped FP1 as Alonso topped FP2 and 3, grabbing pole position. It was great to see Alonso back in the hunt after all this time and all of his driver error. Massa was overshadowed by his teammate, again. This time it was not forced onto him.
Into turn 3, Curva Biassono, two Ferrari’s and two McLaren’s held the first four positions closely. It was to be an exciting and long race. Into turn 4, Variante Della Roggia, the four driver’s desperately squeezed in for the best turning position. Massa did not see Hamilton to his left, as he was focused on Alonso and Button ahead of him. Hamilton got a little too tight into the turn and had nowhere to go after that. Banging into Massa, destroying his front right suspension, left him disqualified. I was surprised Massa suffered no damages.
This was the first time a Redbull was off pole. It was the first time nobody really paid any attention to them on Sunday, either. It took a lot for them to pass the competitors in front of them – Webber getting frustrated on Hulkenberg’s tail as he cut the chicane. Webber argued that he was to redeem the position, desperately trying to find a way through. F-Duct? Check. What was it then? Their straight line speed was lacking and they opted to go for a setup focused on tackling the turns more than not.
From what I recall, Hulkenberg looked as though he weaved several times trying to keep Webber at bay. The rules state that weaving is allowed – only one defensive maneuver before having to retreat to the racing line. I felt as though Hulk attempted two moves..well, one and a half. Still.
For the majority of the race, nothing differed. Both traded fastest laps as Massa occasionally came through, too. An occasional tire locking and over steer communicated that the pressure was getting to both drivers. Ever since he started, Button has been known as the smoothest driver on the F1 grid. He is known for taking turns smoother than any other driver, upping his accuracy rate. For 2010, since the fueling ban, drivers need to take more care of their tires. Alonso was able to distinguish himself from the rest of the drivers as the driver more capable of managing his tires. Compare both of these characteristics and you get a race as close as we saw it. If it weren’t for the pit stops, nothing would have changed.
The soft tires held on surprisingly well in Monza. As the race began, I assumed they would be pitting a third of the way in rather than half way through. Ferrari were able to change Alonso’s tires a whole second faster than McLaren on Button. That gave him the edge. In addition, Button came in first: on his outlap, Alonso enjoyed his slightly worn soft tires, which luckily so happened to be faster than Button’s brand new hard tires. Button also suffered from a terrible outlap, cold tires and all. Combine that loss of pace with a superb Ferrari stop and you get overtaken.
Both Alonso and Button had run their F-Ducts but Alonso still managed to clock higher top speeds during the race. That must be due to Button’s higher downforce strategy than Alonso. The telemetry showed that Alonso was .400 seconds faster during S1 while Button was .400 seconds faster during S2. S1 has 4 corners while S2 has five corners. There is not much difference in terms of speed, but S1 is slightly better fitting for a lower downforce setup – Alonso.
With two laps left, I had my doubts to whether or not Vettel would be pitting. I was sure that if he crossed the line, he would be penalized, or maybe even disqualified – the rules clearly state that a race distance needs to be completed on both types of tire compound. Their strategy adjustment to a problem, his dying engine problem, was fascinating. Their pitstop was spot on and kept him in fourth position, and ahead of his teammate.
Alonso and Button are back in the hunt for the championship.
Moment of the day: Opening four turns as drivers squeezed through.

As an independent Christian school, Providence Academy’s mission to provide “Uncompromising excellence in educating and equipping students with truth” remains paramount. We know the value of proper training and preparation and understand that a school must offer a measured balance between academic rigor and character education. But I believe the proper balance can only be achieved if the school employs teachers who can inspire.
It has been said that a poor teacher tells, a good teacher explains, an outstanding teacher shows, but the great teacher inspires. If a teacher can ignite in his or her students a genuine love of learning, as well as an understanding of the great truths of life, those students have the potential to achieve some form of greatness—not only for “self,” but for others who will benefit from their intellect, abilities and example.
In my more than 30 years in the business of Christian schooling, I have also come to know and appreciate the value of integrating the tenants of our faith with the core subjects we teach. I have witnessed the power of shaping character in and out of the classroom. The mentoring relationships between teacher and student, coach and athlete, director and actor or musician on the stage are vital if a school is to achieve excellence in the various disciplines it offers. In short, great teachers are like great gardeners who prune, cultivate, and water the vine. They know their work requires patience and attention to the smallest detail. But they also know that discipline and careful pruning, while difficult at times, will produce lasting fruit.
At Providence Academy, we strive to inspire, challenge and motivate students to find their respective passions and furnish them with the structure, framework, facilities, and faculty who can provide the nurture, training, and discipline that will enable them to be successful.
We welcome you to explore how we endeavor to provide an “exceptional educational experience.” In doing so, we trust that your family will discover what makes the Providence community worthy of your consideration.
The School Board is the primary governing body of the School and is responsible for the establishment of policy, the appointment of the Head of School, the appointment of the Spiritual Head of School, and the preservation of the School’s mission, finances, facilities, and programs. Providence Academy’s School Board is an all-volunteer body. No member is compensated for his or her service. Pursuant to Providence Academy’s Bylaws, there may be five (5) and not more than twenty-one (21) members of the School Board.

Senior Infants did a lovely job of painting pebbles from the beach. They painted them as minions, ladybirds and monsters. They loved this very simple lesson.

AVAILABLE NOW IN THE CAMARO5STORE!!!
Folks, we are back from the fest and realize quite a few people didn't pick up one of these great event shirts.
Go to the Camaro5 Store to order either the regular Fest IV shirt .
Remember folks, by doing the pre-orders, we are able to get a better count of what sizes and quantities we'll need once it comes time to place the orders for the fest.
My thought was, less sales on the womens shirts, so they need to recoup their money/make their money somehow. Supply/Demand.
^ nope. Not at all. We are charged more by the supplier for ladies shirts. Again, why? Don't know... but if we are charged more, that has to be reflected in the actual price of the shirt.
Are the shirts white or ash grey?
that's what I mean, so the suppliers get their money.
Ash Grey...ladies shirts tend to cost more because of how they are manufactured, quality of cotton, how they are cut, etc. The ladies shirts might end up a slightly different color depending on what color the manufacturer offers...but they will still be nice.
Thanks, Mrs.TAG, order has been made.
Ah. ...cause I was gonna say, it's not us raising the prices!
Keep bringin' those orders, peeps!
These pre-orders do a TON to help us out. First, they help us with our total order numbers when we go to the printer. We did this last year and it helped tremendously. Secondly, it helped move a lot of people in and out. Not having to break out the credit card on site when you have a line of people ahead of you (and behind you) seriously cut down on wait times. We'll have your pre-paid items bagged and ready to go. Walk in with your pre-order confirmation and voila....out you can go with your bagged goodies!
FYI, of all the sales last year, only about 30% were pre-orders. We'd sure love to see that go up a tad this year.

Home / News / How to install the cell signal booster kit?
If you are using our products for the first time and don't know how to install them, you can refer to the following steps.
Note: If the installation method is incorrect, it may affect the use effect or even the wrong installation method will make the product not work.
Check the bar indicator on your cell phone display and note where the signal appears the strongest. NOTE: Cell phone bars are only an approximation of signal strength and vary from phone to phone.
Be patient and and repeat your signal check several times. NOTE: Create a “soft” install first by testing components in your proposed locations before securing them with hardware.

I look forward to seeing all of your votes.
Is that Monday 28th a public holiday in lieu?
If it is that's ok.
Yes the 28th is a public holiday.
Voting's open, here's what I went with.
Going to hold off doing my votes for a bit but while I'm here can I ask that everyone does not post any sorts of Warmest 100/hard statistical analysis, or at least keep it behind links where they can't be seen accidentally? I'm trying to avoid that stuff this year.
I too thought I was going to try and avoid spoilers this year. But I've already had a look, I'll try to be good to myself from now on and experience it like old times (very old times for me).
I wanted to um and ah and listen to new songs but my mind settled on 10 songs about a week ago and I don't see them changing.
This would have to be the hardest year to have to cull my list to just 10. So hard.
Not on the list but I will include it anyway.
I am not seeing much love for the Mark Ronson and Miley track which surprises me. I thought this would do well but now I am not so sure as I don't think I have seen one person even vote for it.
Just like 2012, 2013, 2016 and 2017, I am using my * point system as a process of elimination in determining my votes.
If anyone hasn't voted yet, get in quick! Voting closes 22 December at 9:00am sharp.
@K8, I have seen dozens of people vote for the Mark Ronson/Miley Cyrus collab on the Hottest 100 hashtags on Instagram; while this is no indication of it being a popular choice, I'd probably expect it to just scrape the Hottest 200. It was released quite late last year, so many people won't like it enough yet to include it in their list.
Lady Powers was in 2017! It made #118.
Stayed up (too) late to finish my votes but here they are.
-21 artists appearing in this year's Hottest 100 for the very first time.
-5 songs in this year’s countdown that were first uploaded to Unearthed in 2018.
-2 artists in this year’s countdown that have back-to-back songs.
I'm really hoping for #8 and #11 to make the top 10!
I'm pretty excited for this year too. Predicton time!
Can't remember the Ocean Alley song (even if last.fm tells me I've listened to it) but if everyone here thinks it could go number one, it just has to be up there.
Gonna update where I think my votes will finish up in the earlier post, hopeful I'll get 5 in the 100 and 2/3 in the 200.
Surprised that Drake hasn’t been mentioned as a front runner, and I’m picking This is America for #1. I’ve never heard of the Ocean Alley song though.
Lemon Glow, Charcoal Baby, Peach, Girlfriend, When I'm with Him, Hot Pink, deep end, Cherry & In My View only just missed out.

Entrepreneurs and investors reacted with shock to Monday's ouster of the founder and CEO of Lending Club.
The online lending business could suffer a serious blow to its reputation after the surprise ouster of one of its best-known leaders, investors and industry executives said on Monday.
Renaud Laplanche, the founder and CEO of publicly-listed Lending Club, resigned in the wake of a damning internal investigation, the results of which were disclosed to the stock market before the opening of trading on Monday. The news came as a shock to many in the fast-growing online lending business.
"I was really surprised, because Renaud Laplanche has a very good reputation, he was a figurehead of this industry," Emmanuel Marot, the founder of LendingRobot, a service that buys up marketplace loans for investors, told BuzzFeed News. Around $50 million of the over $90 million the company manages is invested in Lending Club loans.
The investigation determined that Lending Club sold $22 million worth of loans to one institutional investor in March and April, despite staff knowing that the loans did not meet the criteria requested by the investor. The wrongdoing included changing the application dates on some of the loans that were being sold.
Citing a "violation of the Company's business practices along with a lack of full disclosure during the review," Lending Club's new executive chairman, Hans Morris, said the board's response — including the ouster of the founder and CEO — was "swift and decisive."
The investigation also revealed that two Lending Club directors bought personal stakes in a fund that Lending Club later invested in. Bloomberg reported that Lending Club acquired a 15% stake in Cirrix Capital, a fund in which Laplanche — who also served as chairman of the Lending Club board — and board member John Mack both held undisclosed stakes. Cirrix itself was an investor in online marketplace loans, including those from Lending Club.
Lending Club went public in late 2014, soaring to $23 per share on its first day of trading. The stock fell by 34% to $4.62 on Monday, and is down by 58% so far this year. The crashing stock is a bad sign for other startup online lenders hoping to go public, and management failures at Lending Club could put a cloud over others in the industry.
Isaac Boltanksy, an analyst at Compass Point, said in a note Monday that the revelations from Lending Club "will surely spook bank purchasers who have become an increasing part of the company’s funding base, further frustrate the investment community, and ultimately result in stricter scrutiny from both federal and state regulators."
On Tuesday, the U.S. Treasury released a new report, titled "Opportunities and Challenges in Online Marketplace Lending."
Matt Burton, the founder of Orchard, which does data analysis for institutional investors, said the fall of an "industry heavyweight" like Laplanche came as a shock. "Integrity is super important in financial services, small mistakes can hurt as much as big mistakes," he said.
Bad behavior including misleading investors, profiting from both sides of a deal, and undisclosed conflicts of interest have become common scandals on Wall Street. A new crop of web-driven finance startups — with Lending Club leading the way — have pointedly tried to distinguish themselves from the financial industry's bad reputation.
In proud Silicon Valley style, Lending Club describes itself as a pure tech-enabled marketplace: Its software helps approve loans and set the interest rate, and then lets investors sift through the loan details to select exactly which kind of loans they want to buy. But Monday's revelations suggest its data cannot always be relied upon.
Although the amount of money at issue was small, online lenders often sell off their loans to investors that only want to buy specific types and classes of loans, and are attracted to the digitally-savvy upstarts precisely because they trumpet the extensive data they generate on each borrower.
P2P Global Investments, a publicly traded UK fund that is heavily invested in U.S. consumer loans, including those from Lending Club, rushed out a statement saying it had "no exposure to LendingClub equity or equity-linked securities" and only bought "prime" Lending Club loans, not the "near prime" loans that the investigation said had been misclassified.
"It’s one of those things that makes me develop a pit at the bottom of my stomach," Sean Murray, an investor with $85,000 worth of Lending Club notes, told BuzzFeed News. "One of their defining characteristics is how transparent they are, when you see something that’s not 100% above board, you don’t want to have that doubt."
Others were more nonplussed: Marot, the founder of LendingRobot, told his clients in an email seen by BuzzFeed News that Laplanche's resignation will have "zero" impact for "for individual investors in general, and LendingRobot clients in particular." Marot said "the underwriting of the loans themselves is not in question, only that the package of loans sold did not match the investor's investment criteria. No money was embezzled."
But Anil Gupta, who runs PeerCube, a data and analysis service for the online lending industry, was more concerned.
"Trust has been built over the years and trust has been broken this month. It took seven to eight years to build that trust," he said. "Investors are going to start questioning everything."
Murray told BuzzFeed News he was now hesitant about putting more of his own money into the company. "I don’t know if I could tell my wife that the LendingClub CEO resigned and I’m going to put in another ten grand," he said.

Want a little slice of heaven in Turin?? Consider having “Bicerin” from Caffè al Bicerin.
Bicerin is quite simply a drink of espresso, chocolate and cream. This sinful drink topped with a secret ingredient from Caffè al Bicerin is what makes it so special! This drink was invented by Caffè al Bicerin centuries ago and has since then retained it’s recipe, style and production. The legacy is astounding!
Don’t miss visiting Caffè al Bicerin when you are in Turin and also check their specialty store next door where everything is filled with chocolate!
Bicerin comes at the price of a whooping €6 but it is really is worth every penny at least once in your life (okay more than once!).
Sounds and looks delicious, I’m sure I would love this.
I’ve been there twice…I love it!
I like the way you teach us one Italian word or concept in every post. One by one you are introducing you to the country and its culture. Thank you.
An absolute jewel of a spot, and the calories are all worth it!
I will be traveling to Turin in 2018 for the Salone del Gusto. Thanks for the tip!
How wonderful! Is it in the 3rd week of February??
It is September 22-26, 2018. Maybe you are thinking of a different event?
So so good! Worth the €6!
6 Euros doesn’t seem so much for the old-world charm when you compare it with the prices of Starbucks.
I have a thing for cafés and old(er) ones in general. This looks lovely!
Most welcome. 🙂 Happy 2018 to you as well.

Why Is It Legal To Own Anthrax?
Oh, sure, there are a few more legal restrictions. If you want to get your anthrax culture from a U.S. lab, you have to obtain permission from the Centers for Disease Control and the Agriculture Department. This is basically impossible if you can’t demonstrate that you’re a serious research scientist. The relevant law was passed in 1996 in response to an incident in which a member of the white-supremacist group Aryan Nations purchased three vials of plague bacteria by mail. At the time, the only thing he could be prosecuted for was wire fraud (he’d used phony letterhead to make it look as though he ran a laboratory). Indeed, Iraq’s biological weapons program is said to have gotten started during the mid-1980s with the perfectly legal purchase of anthrax from a company based in Virginia. Apparently, the going price was less than $50 per vial. Purchasing anthrax from an overseas lab, meanwhile, remains legal today under some circumstances, and it’s quite easy. According to the Oct. 22 Time, as of last week, nearly 50 foreign sources were still advertising that it was available.
If you want some anthrax, you don’t necessarily have to purchase it from a lab. You can just dig it up someplace where anthrax is known to have infected livestock. “Growing this organism is no problem,” Norman Cheville, dean of Iowa State University’s School of Veterinary Medicine, explained on Oct. 14 to Charles Ornstein of the Los Angeles Times. Apparently, it’s somewhat more of a problem to make sure you end up with a really deadly strain. “A terrorist would almost certainly have to make many isolation efforts before finding a strain that was as potent as desired, and perhaps many more to find a drug-resistant strain,” Rick Weiss reported in the Oct. 12 WashingtonPost. But terrorists tend to be highly motivated people! It’s difficult to steer an airliner into the World Trade Center, but we learned Sept. 11 that it can be done.
Fighting terrorism entails a lot of complex challenges and poses many hard questions about the kind of society we want to live in. Among these Chatterbox does not count the issue of whether deliberate possession of anthrax, a substance that has no legitimate use to anyone who isn’t a research scientist, ought to be legal. We can argue about what the precise penalty should be, but Chatterbox senses there’s a broad consensus that it should be at least as severe as that for possession of marijuana.

Background: Currently, there is no validated quality-of-life instrument that evaluates both functional and aesthetic outcomes after rhinoplasty. The goal of this study was to develop and validate a comprehensive quality-of-life instrument to assess patient satisfaction with both functional and aesthetic outcomes after rhinoplasty.
Methods: The study was designed as a prospective instrument validation study at a university-affiliated academic medical center. Inclusion criteria included patients with nasal obstructive symptoms, nasal aesthetic deformity, or both, who underwent functional and/or aesthetic rhinoplasty by a single surgeon between December 2014 and June 2015. A novel 10-item instrument (the Rhinoplasty Health Inventory and Nasal Outcomes [RHINO] scale) was developed to assess physical, mental, and social well-being after functional and/or aesthetic rhinoplasty. Instrument validation was performed by assessment of test–retest reliability, internal consistency reliability, construct validity, and concurrent validity.
Results: Twenty-two patients (10 males and 12 females) were enrolled. Mean age was 34.9 years (range: 18–67 years). All patients were followed for a minimum of 12 weeks (range: 12–23 weeks; mean: 16.5 weeks). Mean RHINO score was 51.4 ± 13.8 on the first preoperative evaluation and 51.7 ± 12.5 when repeated preoperatively on the day of surgery (r = 0.94; P < 0.001). Internal consistency demonstrated Cronbach’s α value of 0.74. Mean postoperative RHINO score was 84.7 ± 14.1 (mean difference from preoperative RHINO = 33.2 ± 18.9; P < 0.001).
Conclusions: The RHINO instrument demonstrates robust reliability and validity in assessing patient-reported satisfaction with rhinoplasty outcomes.
From the Division of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery, Stanford University School of Medicine, Palo Alto, Calif.
Received for publication September 10, 2015; accepted December 8, 2016.
Assessment of treatment efficacy and outcomes in rhinoplasty can be implemented using a variety of objective or subjective measures. A well-recognized criticism of objective outcome measures in rhinoplasty is the frequent and often significant divergence between objectively quantifiable measurements and subjective patient-reported outcomes.1 As a result, subjective quality-of-life (QOL) instruments have assumed an increasingly prevalent role in the assessment of outcomes after nasal surgery. This is intuitive to cosmetic nasal surgery as patient satisfaction is the most critical indicator of a successful outcome but is also equally as applicable to functional rhinoplasty.
To this end, various QOL instruments have been developed to assess patient-reported outcomes after nasal surgery. Two of the most widely applied instruments include the Nasal Obstructive Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale and the Rhinoplasty Outcomes Evaluation (ROE) scale.2,3 The former has been used to study outcomes of functional rhinoplasty procedures and to create a severity scale for nasal obstruction.4–6 Studies using the latter scale, namely measuring aesthetic outcomes, have been much less common. It is interesting to note that both these validated instruments have segregated the assessment of aesthetic and functional outcomes after nasal surgery. In many ways, this is an artificial distinction as it is well accepted that nasal function and aesthetics are closely related.
It is evident that to achieve successful results after rhinoplasty, patients must report satisfaction with both functional and aesthetic outcomes. The goal of this study was to develop and validate a comprehensive QOL instrument to assess patient satisfaction with functional and aesthetic outcomes after rhinoplasty.
This prospective instrument validation study was performed at Stanford University, after approval by the Stanford Institutional Review Board. All patients were consented for the study using an informed consent document reviewed and approved by the Stanford Institutional Review Board. Data were obtained prospectively by consecutive enrollment of patients evaluated and treated by the single surgeon (S.P.M.). The study period extended from December 2014 to June 2015, during which time surgeries were performed by the senior author, and patients were followed for a minimum of 3 months postoperatively. Inclusion criteria included (1) patient aged 18 years or older; (2) patient presenting complaint of nasal obstruction, nasal aesthetic deformity, or both; and (3) patients who are appropriate candidates for functional or aesthetic rhinoplasty. Exclusion criteria included (1) patient aged younger than 18 years and (2) patients who were planned for functional or aesthetic rhinoplasty in combination with concurrent sinus surgery or sleep apnea surgery.
The World Health Organization has defined health as a state of physical, mental, and social well-being.7 Accordingly, measurements of these 3 domains have been targeted by health-related QOL instruments. The Rhinoplasty Health Inventory and Nasal Outcomes (RHINO) scale was correspondingly developed as a 10-item questionnaire to evaluate outcomes in these 3 health domains. In addition, the RHINO scale assesses each of these 3 domains as it specifically pertains to either nasal function or aesthetics, with equal halves (5 items each) divided between the 2. Each item in the survey is scored on a Likert scale from 1 to 5, with high numbers indicating greater satisfaction. The 10-item scores are then summated and multiplied by 2, to create a final score on a 100-point scale. The RHINO instrument is demonstrated in Figure 1.
Patients enrolled in the study were asked to complete the RHINO instrument on 3 separate occasions: (1) preoperatively at the consultation visit, (2) preoperatively on the day of surgery, and (3) postoperatively approximately 3 months after surgery. Statistical analysis was completed using SPSS version 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, N.Y.). Test–retest reliability was assessed via Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Internal consistency reliability was assessed via Cronbach’s α, a statistical tool that determines the correlation of items in a survey instrument and is commonly used to estimate the reliability of psychometric tests. Construct validity was confirmed by analyzing responsiveness to change by comparison of preoperative and postoperative RHINO scores via paired samples t-test. Concurrent validity was assessed by cross-referencing patient RHINO scores for functional items with NOSE scores obtained at the same visit, using Pearson’s correlation coefficient.
A total of 22 patients (10 males and 12 females) who met all inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study. Patient age ranged from 18 to 67 years, with an average age of 34.9 years. All patients were followed for a minimum of 3 months postoperatively. Follow-up time ranged from 12 to 23 weeks, with an average of 16.5 weeks. Of the 22 nasal surgeries, 8 (36.4%) were performed for functional indications, 4 (18.2%) for aesthetic indications, and 10 (45.5%) for a combination of functional and aesthetic indications. Seven patients (31.8%) had a documented history of prior nasal fracture/trauma. Septoplasty surgery was performed in 17 (77.3%) cases. Five (22.7%) were performed using L-strut septoplasty technique, and 12 (54.5%) were performed using a modified extracorporeal septoplasty technique (anterior septal reconstruction) as previously described by the senior author.8 Eight of the 22 surgeries (36.4%) were revision cases, that is, secondary septorhinoplasty patients who had initial nasal surgery performed elsewhere. Four patients (18.2%) underwent harvest of autologous rib cartilage for grafting purposes. There were no surgical complications identified in the study period. Patient data are summarized in Table 1.
All 22 patients completed the test–retest reliability portion of the validation process. The average RHINO score was 51.4 ± 13.8 on the first preoperative evaluation and 51.7 ± 12.5 when repeated preoperatively on the day of surgery. Test–retest reliability was evaluated via Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r = 0.94; P < 0.001), with results indicating statistically significant reliability and reproducibility. Internal consistency reliability was assessed by calculating Cronbach’s α coefficient, with an α > 0.70 generally considered acceptable for instrument reliability.9 Analysis of internal consistency for the entire 10-item inventory demonstrated adequate internal consistency, with α = 0.74. When the functional and aesthetic items were assessed separately, α = 0.92 for the 5 functional items and α = 0.89 for the 5 aesthetic items. Reliability assessment results are summarized in Table 2.
Construct validity was evaluated by calculating the responsiveness to change after nasal surgery. The mean preoperative averaged RHINO score was 51.6 ± 13.0 when compared with a mean postoperative RHINO score of 84.7 ± 14.1. The difference between preoperative and postoperative scores ranged from −1 to 61, with a mean difference of 33.2 ± 18.9. A paired samples t-test was performed comparing the averaged preoperative RHINO scores with the postoperative RHINO score, demonstrating a statistically significant increase in scores postoperatively (P < 0.001). To determine concurrent validity of the RHINO scale with the current gold standard NOSE scale, RHINO scores for the 5 functional items obtained at the first preoperative visit were cross-referenced with NOSE scores obtained at the same visit. Of the total 22 patients, 21 had preoperative NOSE and RHINO data available for data analysis. The mean preoperative functional RHINO score for the 21 patients was 25.1 ± 12.4, and the mean NOSE score was 11.2 ± 5.7. Pearson’s correlation coefficient demonstrated a statistically negative correlation (r = −0.85; P < 0.001) between RHINO and NOSE scores, indicating significant concurrent validity. As a point of additional clarification, the correlation coefficient was negative due to the fact that the RHINO and NOSE instruments were designed on inversely related scales, that is, high NOSE scores that indicate a high degree of nasal obstruction will correspond to low RHINO scores that indicate poor nasal function. Results are summarized in Table 3.
The aim of this study was to develop and validate a comprehensive QOL health instrument to assess patient satisfaction and outcomes after rhinoplasty. Currently, the gold standard QOL instrument for nasal surgery is the NOSE scale, as first described by Stewart et al.2 Notably, this instrument focuses on the assessment of nasal obstructive symptoms alone, and such its application is relatively limited with regard to surgery performed for primarily aesthetic or combined functional/aesthetic indications. The ROE scale is a complementary QOL instrument initially developed and validated by Alsarraf et al,3 with a focus on aesthetic outcomes after nasal surgery. In an analogous but reciprocal fashion to the NOSE scale, the ROE focuses solely on aesthetics to the exclusion of nasal functional evaluation. The NOSE scale has been much more widely adopted than the ROE instrument, though use of the ROE is increasingly as evidenced in several recent outcomes studies.10–12 As a consequence, we have much more data regarding outcomes with regard to function and little with regard to aesthetics. Likewise, we have even fewer examples of concurrent study of both. Our goal is to integrate nasal outcomes studies to include both domains, as both are acknowledged as of critical import in any type of rhinoplasty, functional or aesthetic.
The segregation of functional and aesthetic outcome assessment is a significant limitation to both the aforementioned QOL instruments. Decades of experience with rhinoplasty have demonstrated that the function and aesthetics of the nose are inseparably related.13 Aesthetic complaints, such as collapse or narrowing of the middle vault after a reductive rhinoplasty, will often present concurrently with functional nasal obstructive complaints. Similarly, functional correction of nasal valve compromise while simultaneously creating an aesthetically unacceptable appearance will almost universally result in poor patient satisfaction and by extension a poor outcome.
In this study, we have developed and validated a unified scale assessing both functional and aesthetic patient-reported outcomes after rhinoplasty. This instrument demonstrated a high level of reliability and validity. Test–retest assessment showed significant reliability of scores when administered on separate days and in different settings, that is, in an outpatient clinic setting versus the preoperative holding area. The 10-item questionnaire was found to be internally consistent by Cronbach’s α, both when assessed as a whole and when assessed separately for the functional and aesthetic items. The RHINO scale was found to have appropriate construct and concurrent validity, as assessed by a statistically significant responsiveness to change and a high level of correlation between the functional item responses and the current gold standard, the NOSE scale.
The versatility of the RHINO scale becomes apparent when assessing patients in whom satisfaction with functional or aesthetic outcomes may be divergent from the overall satisfaction reported after surgery. In these patients, evaluating outcomes using a unidimensional functional or aesthetic QOL instrument may not correlate with the overall patient-reported outcome. As a case in point, this is exemplified in one patient in this study who expressed ambivalence regarding his surgical outcome (the sole patient in the study who reported a net negative change in his RHINO score after nasal surgery). His postoperative RHINO score was decreased by −1 compared with his preoperative average. Interestingly, when viewing the functional items in isolation, his score was slightly increased from a preoperative average of 26 to a postoperative score of 40. However, his aesthetic score decreased from a preoperative average of 27 to a postoperative score of 12. Overall, the patient related that his improvement in nasal obstruction was counterbalanced by his disappointment with his aesthetic appearance. Utilization of a unidimensional QOL instrument would not have revealed a comprehensive or accurate assessment regarding the patient’s overall self-reported outcome and satisfaction with surgery. This exemplifies why a unified functional and aesthetic scale is critical for the assessment of surgical outcomes after rhinoplasty.
In summary, this study reports the development and validation of a novel disease-specific QOL instrument pertaining to functional and aesthetic rhinoplasty. Statistical analyses in a sample of 22 patients demonstrate the RHINO scale to be both statistically reliable and valid in assessing patient-reported satisfaction with rhinoplasty outcomes, as assessed by test–retest reliability, internal consistency reliability, construct validity, and concurrent validity. The use of this statistically validated instrument is recommended for future studies evaluating outcomes after rhinoplasty.

Today marks one full year in which this blog had its first post. Thank you very much for following this blog. I hope it’s been as good for you as it has for me.
I am ever so thankful for the brilliant and wonderful Marian Bantjes. Her insights on her work provide such an awareness of the world that I am inexhaustibly intrigued by. The symbiosis of poetry, visually and thoughtfully, and design filled with love provides me with endless inspiration. I hope you enjoy this wonderful video as much as I do.
Here’s my entry. I’m one of the few to try to do it for Futura Bold. Also, since the limit of the space when dealing with such heavy strokes, I decided to make them very simpler and more iconic. There haven’t been many other entries yet. Any challengers up for the task?
Paula Scher and her team designed this year’s AIGA annual. I can’t wait to get mine. Check out a sneak peak here.

What happens after I submit a sunrise application? – Donuts Inc.
So you were able to submit your first Sunrise application!
What is the next step? When Sunrise closes, Donuts will determine if there are multiple applications for the same domain name. If there is only one valid application for a domain, the domain will be awarded to that applicant. If there are two or more valid applications for a domain, those applicants will be invited to participate in a closed auction. The domain will be awarded to the auction winner after payment is received.
Once a domain is awarded to an applicant after the Sunrise phase, it goes into a "Sunrise Lock" for a minimum of 60 days to allow parties to file Sunrise Challenges. Domains in Sunrise Lock cannot be updated, transferred, or deleted.

In Foreclosed, Christopher K. Odinet gives voice to the stories of homeowners that have been neglected, particularly those facing foreclosure and deep financial distress. The book reveals the powerful and often invisible mortgage servicing industry, the tremendous discretionary power it wields over the housing lives of most Americans, and the servicing problems that still persist today. In doing so, it unveils a quiet and dangerous market shift in mortgage servicing - namely, an ongoing move toward a shadow banking sector where regulation is weak - that threatens the stability of our housing finance system. Ultimately, the book demonstrates how the law does not afford homeowners the protection most think and how regulation of these mortgage middlemen remains weak. Foreclosed should be read by anyone concerned with the state of housing and home ownership in the United States.
Introduction; Part I. The Housing Crisis, its Architects, and its Victims: 1. The lead-up to the crisis; 2. The crisis hits; 3. At your (mortgage) service; Part II.

Makes it easy to respect rate limits.
Ratelim is a simple Python library that limits the number of times a function can be called during a time interval. It is particularly useful when using online APIs, which commonly enforce rate limits.
Works in Py2 and Py3.
Greedy and patient rate limiting.
Say you want to call a function at most for n_calls during a n_seconds time interval.
The greedy rate limiter calls does not delay any function call until it’s really necessary.
In some scenarios, for example when crawling data from an API, you want to maximize the number of calls you make and you want to avoid sending them in short sequence. To this aim, we can use the patient rate limiter. It distributes calls evenly between each other.

Once again, I find myself in Las Vegas waiting to board a flight to Dallas. Being away from the family stinks. Jared’s tummy still hurts. I miss them already and the week has barely begun. I am on hold on my cell phone, trying to type with one hand. I do not want to be a “road warrior”.
Katie’s birthday was yesterday. We went to Muir woods and saw the new Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The woods were nice but cold. The movie blew chunks. Bad acting. Bad writing. Two thumbs down, way down. Dumbledoor is so un-wise. Booooo. The only bright spots in acting was Hermoiny and Snape. I hope Hermoiny (whatever spelling) has a career after Potter. She is good.

Green Cards (also known as Permanent Resident Cards) do not always include the Permanent Resident’s signature on the face of the card. Beginning in February 2015, the USCIS began waiving the signature requirement for individuals who filed for their Green Card from abroad through the Embassy or Consulate in the home country. The USCIS may waive the signature requirement in other limited circumstances, such as for children under the age of 18 or individuals physically unable to provide a signature.
When the Green Card is issued without a signature, the card will say “Signature Waived” on the front and back of the card where a signature would normally be located.
Green Cards identify the holder as a Lawful Permanent Resident of the United States and are proof of identity and work authorization. Green Cards which say “signature waived” are valid for I-9 purposes, as long as the Green Card is unexpired.
Thanks for share valuable info.

Analysts at Commerzbank explained that EUR/JPY did not manage to close below 131.68 – the potential top is not confirmed.
"However, for now, it continues to be viewed as viable."
"The near-term rebound appears to have recently terminated circa 133.135. We await a confirming close below 131.68 to complete the potential top pattern. This is the location of last month’s lows."
"A close below 131.68 would then target the mid-September low at 130.64, the September low at 129.40 and the August low at 127.57."
" Bottom of the cloud support lies at 130.98 and ideally we will need a close below here to add bearish weight to the view."
"Where are we wrong near term? A move above the 134.58 November 2015 high would target the 2008-2017 resistance line at 140.90/141.00."

My father had established a business in nearby Vaduz, Liechtenstein in the mid 70’s. We were living in Rorschach (Canton St. Gallen) at the time. Initially, I went to a different private school but my father wanted a different experience for me and that’s how I ended up at Institut Montana Zugerberg.
Why did you choose the program of study that you did?
As I had a good command of English, the American section was the natural choice for me but I also took German classes as well.
I had two favorite teachers; Mr. John Mather & Mr. Kevin O’Brien. Not surprisingly, they were my teachers for both biology and history; the two classes I loved most. Both were very sincere and considerate. They put a lot of effort in making sure that the students understood their subjects. Not only that, but they played a major role in our upbringing as boarding students as they were our mentors so to speak. Today, I own an establishment in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia which focuses on preserving the history of the old town. I believe my love for history from a young age had a lot to do with that. I owe them a lot.
I was a boarding student. For two years I lived in the building known as Felsenegg, and a year in the building known as Grosses Haus. Life on the mountain was very unique. There were many rules that we had to abide by which were difficult to adhere to at first, but as time went by, I got used to them. We were constantly involved in extracurricular activities that almost completely filled our spare time. This promoted the communal bond we students had with one another and with our teachers. The campus setting was very unique, and played a big part in the relationships students and staff had. I personally made lifelong friendships with both my fellow students and teachers. This would not have been possible without the great care and attention of our teachers.
What was your favorite memory and why?
I have so many memories. I wrote a book about my three years at the school, “Children of the Clouds,” whose pages are filled with all of the memories and events that made me the person I am today. One funny memory I recall was when I was denied “Ausgang” or leave, for over 6 weeks. I will always remember that Saturday when I was finally allowed off campus. Everyone in the dining room was holding their breath and praying for me as I got my “Ausgang Slip” signed from all teachers concerned. There was a sigh of relief and joy. I remember everyone wanted to spend the afternoon in Zug with me.
I was involved in all the sporting activities. I played for the school’s basketball and football teams. Additionally, I always looked forward to “Class-Night”; where each class performed a play every year.
So important that without this exposure one struggles in life today. Living at school with students from so many other countries brought with it the diversification that we all needed. This deepened our appreciation of others; of how they thought and of why they thought that way. It taught me that there are more views than mine that needed to be respected and understood. It taught me how to accept and respect those who are very different from me.
If someone was considering studying at Institut Montana Zugerberg, what would you tell them?
First of all, I would tell them how lucky they were to be considering Institut Montana Zugerberg. They will be embarking on a journey that will forever change their life. Go ahead and make that very vital decision to go - go and grow.
The school took education very seriously. I recall when I had difficulties; I was very quickly supervised and guided to catch up with the rest. Along with the curriculum came individual development and support. I strongly believe that the teachers managed to create a balance that not only prepared us for university, but for life as a whole.
What is the one thing you learned from Insitut Montana Zugerberg that you found most valuable?
You can’t live three years at this school and learn only one thing. I learned that respect will take you far. I learned that communicating your thoughts with others and respecting theirs took you even further. I learned that discipline is the foundation of tangible results. I learned that rising above our differences only made me see clearer. I learned how to bring up my own children many years later using the same values and principles.
Nourishing! Institut Montana Zugerberg not only fed my mind, but my heart and soul as well!
First of all, they need to know that they are very lucky to be studying at Institut Montana Zugerberg. They need to realize that time flies by, and they need to enjoy every minute of being at the school. They need to appreciate being in a multicultural surrounding, and that this will help them see the world better many years down the line. They need to take the friendships they are creating today very seriously because it’s forming their identity and through it, they will become the upright men and women of tomorrow. They need to understand that they are now creating their memories for the future, and that one day - 20 or 30 years from now - wherever they are in the world or wherever life takes them, they will reflect with a lot of gratitude that they were given the opportunity to once have lived at Institut Montana Zugerberg.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak my thoughts. I’ve been carrying these thoughts with me my whole life. I always shared them with my friends and my children, but never with those who like myself have lived at the school; with those who know exactly what I’m talking about. Danke!

LED signs provide you with a visually-stunning and effective way to communicate your brand’s message to your consumers. Marketing through LED signs gives you the advantage of changing your message—from text, to graphics, to videos—whenever you please to help you achieve your business goals.
When compared to plastic signs, LED signs don’t require a huge commitment when purchasing them. This is because you can change up your content whenever you want, rather than having to choose one design to stick with for years. You do have to make one decision when buying LED signs: do you want to display your sign indoors or outdoors? Here’s a comparison of the two basic types of signs to help you decide.
Indoor LED signs are a very effective form of storefront marketing. These signs are capable of capturing the attention of people passing by your store or those who are already inside. When displayed properly, indoor LED signs can help you achieve one of two goals. Indoor signs can help you draw new customers into your store or help you close the deal on a particular product or service.
We’ve seen business owners use their LED signs effectively to appeal to consumers who walk by their storefront or drive by close enough to see their signs. We’ve also seen business owners use their indoor signs to promote new traffic, highlight specific products/services, advertise specials, and more. Even more innovative uses include using LED signs as menus, video displays, or message boards for announcements and appreciations notes.
Outdoor LED signs can help you accomplish some of the same goals as indoor signs, but they are most effective at capturing the attention of people driving by your area. Available in monochrome, tri-color, and full-color options, these signs let you display your message in the best possible way. Change up your images, message, or videos whenever you’d like to drive more impulse traffic into your business.
We often see business owners promoting special deals, advertising special events, and displaying anything that makes their business unique and exciting on their LED signs. Using bright colors and beautiful graphics, you can get the attention of anyone driving or walking by your area. Whether it’s a personalized message, an image of your newest menu item, or your logo, your community will be enticed to check out your establishment upon seeing your sign.
We specialize in helping businesses achieve their marketing and advertising goals as easily as possible. By providing you with quality-made, virtually-indestructible LED signs, we’ll give you a way to communicate your messages with the highest number of consumers. You’ve read the advantages of both indoor and outdoor signs, but if you’re still having trouble deciding between the two, we’d love to help you choose the ideal place to display your signage.

Love was busy telling me what Love is and is not and Love didn’t want me. I leaned in and learned the lesson anyway, what is was to listen and talk to Love.
I would write you a letter, with ink and pen on thick paper that feels good in your hands. I’d like to leave the weight of my words with you, a deep impression on the page. I’d make a roadmap of words from here to tomorrow, to guide us til we arrive. I’m searching for words to tell you in advance how sorry I am for the small things I’ve ruined by asking too much or when I couldn’t give you enough. You homeward bound and me, reaching for you. Laid out in lines on a page full of humour, sorrow and life.
Here’s the deal, Kid. I thought you’d be here by now but the truth is, you may never arrive at all. But I’m still your mama – fiercely, entirely and utterly yours. So I wanted to tell you a few things so you’d always know. Like how I want to love you so well and walk with you through all your failures. How I want to teach you everything I’ve learned while waiting for you and how I’m trying to be the best I can be for your sake. So this is for you, kid, love from your Mama.
Distance, figuratively through a lens or over physical miles, brings a focus and perspective to the human experience; particularly in my case to a sense of connection and disconnection.
I have learned my body sings and I will let it.

Very friendly staff, calm atmosphere, dr was very attentive and made me very comfortable. Great bedside manner is almost a lost art buy dr still has it!
I believe patients need appropriate time during their visits to address a myriad of concerns. This is the main reason why at For Women, care is attentive, professional and wholly patient-focused. Patients are given the time they need, not rushed through an exam or check-up. The phylosophy of For Women is to provide "boutique medicine" without charging the patients extra for having direct access to Dr. Fajardo via email or pager. For Women also provides 3D/4D ultrasound and initial consultation with a registered dietitian at no extra cost.
Dr. Fajardo has excellent bedside manner and really shows how much he cares about his patients. He is super knowledgeable and strives to give the best medical advice possible. He's also extremely personable and his attitude puts me at ease every time. Highly recommend!
I absolutely love Dr. Fajardo. He took time to listen and address all of my concerns. His staff was awesome and made my experience at the office stress free.
I was not impressed as I was asked to come twice and more importantly, there was no call to explain my results. Why would you not call or leave a message to call back and share results? Then the charges wereextremely high even with the best insurance that I have got from my company.
Dr. Fajardo is one of the best physicians I have ever seen. He is incredibly professional, genuinely concerned, open and very kind. I'd highly recommend him to any one who is looking for a trustworthy OBGYN!
I would highly recommend Dr Fajardo! He’s very knowledgeable and takes the time to answer all of your questions.
This doctor had a delivery, and I had to wait almost 1.5 hours for my appointment. The wait is fine, but he literally spent only 5 minutes with me when I explained my pain, recommended a shot and spent little to no time educating me. Disappointing.
Dr. Fajardo has been my physician of choice now for at least a year now and I will not be seeing anyone else!
Doctor Fajardo and his staff are great. They treated me promptly and in a friendly manner, they responded to all of my concerns, explained me what was going on and how he’s going to approach into the issue to solve it.
Dr. Fajardo is an outstanding doctor. I recommend him to all my friends looking for an OB. He had been my doctor through two pregnancies and births. His practice is beautiful, comfortable and inviting. His bedside manner is wonderful. His staffis excellent. They feel like family and that is what I wanted from an OB.
Beyond professional, Dr. Javier Fajardo brings true hospitality to the medical professession.
Dr Fajardo is extremely professional, very kind, respectful and patient. If you are pregnant, or consider to get pregnant, I highly recommend him. He cares about his patients and gives you options (ex. during pregnancy, before deliveringyour baby). Not many doctors do this, so I am extremely happy with him as my doctor!
Dr. Fajardo was simply amazing. His office is like a sanctuary. Definitely very different that the typical obgyn office. Highly recommended!
Very proffesional demeaner. I enjoyed my interactions with him ... I'm looking forward to the future with his guidance in my child's health . Listened to everything I had to say and I didn't feel like I was talking to adrone either . Very straight to the point and explained everything dead on. "como hablar con un viejo amigo"
I saw Dr. Fajardo for an annual exam and to discuss a concern that I had regarding my fertility. I am a PA myself, so I know how you can be busy and late for appointments and how it is attimes difficult to be respectful when in a rush, but Dr. Fajardo's attitude and disrespect were completely unacceptable. He was over an hour late for our appointment, and instead of apologizing or even acknowledging that, he just told me to take my pants off and get on the exam table. After the exam, which was nice and quick and easy, I tried to discuss with him a concern that I had regarding my fertility and instead of listening or even pretending to listen, he completely disregarded my concern and said that I have no reason to be concerned and everything is fine and left the room. There is nothing wrong with saying this if you've taken the time to consider or listen to the situation and have made the professional judgement, however it truly did not seem as though he was listening to me. Needless to say, I will not be returning to see Dr. Fajardo, and I had been seeing him for a couple years.
I was apprehensive to go in to a new OBGYN and a yearly pap, but was pleasantly surprised with how warm and welcome this office is. Very quick, kind, and informative. Got my annual pap, flu shot, AND blood taken forDNA genetic testing in less than a half hour total. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
Too long of a wait. Was scheduled to see the doctor and in the end met with the nurse practitioner with no explanation.
It was good, and quick.
Dr. Fajardo delivered my first baby and I absolutely loved his bedside manner and very nice personality. He is very knowledgable in his field. He took great care of me and my baby and I felt very comfortable in his care.
Amazing doctor! Highly recommend. He is very patient, knowledgeable, and listens to you without making you feel rushed. I feel confident he's going to get to the bottom of what is causing my abnormal and painful periods.
The wait time was excessive, my appointment was scheduled for and began at 11 am and did not end until 3pm. A total of 4 hours to complete a prenatal exam.
I've been going here a little over a year now. The staff is always very warm, patient, and helpful. I feel like I'm in the best hands and the ambiance of their new office is great. I will be coming backhere for as long as I can. Highly recommend!
Dr is great, but waiting for an hour is not acceptable.
Felt rushed today and didn't get to really talk about some concerns.
Amazing first experience with Dr. Fajardo. He listened intently, was caring and gentle. Best exam I have ever had! Instead of walking away wanting to go home and hide, I left with a smile and felt very happy and cared for.Love the new office, it is decorated with a traveler in mind including photos taken by Dr. Fajardo. Everything was clean and comforting. Office staff and assistance were all very nice. Not a "mill". Very personal treatment that made me feel like I was not just another number. Thank you!
Doctor Fajardo is the best!
Very nice Doctor. He was kind and explained me everything with details about my concerns. I'm glad that I found someone like him.
Dr. Fajardo is simply amazing! I have previously had bad experiences with other Obgyn and it took me while to find him. His facilities are the cleanest and every one from the staff is super friendly & polite.
Dr. Fajardo and his staff are wonderful. They are helpful, kind and honest. I would highly recommend Dr Fajardo to any woman looking for a professional and genuine Doctor.
Dr. Fajardo is the absolute best. I travel from NJ on a yearly basis for work and he has been my GYN for the past 4 years. He is flexible with his schedule and always makes sure I get in basedon my tight schedule and limited time in the area. He is responsive via e-mail and his office staff is top notch.
Very pleasant! Dr. Fajardo was very Informative and throuogh. He took the time to understand my personal situation and was genuinely concerned with my specific needs.
My partner and I have been trying to have a baby for over 12 months. I have been putting off a doctor's appointment because I was scared and honestly didn't know where to go. I happen to come across Dr. Fajardo'soffice on ZocDoc. From the second I walked into the office, I was impressed. The staff was professional and made me feel welcome. I did not see Dr. Fajardo, but I saw another doctor who practices with him and I was beyond impressed. She gave me all the information that I needed to make my next move. She was to the point, but sensitive to the fact that I had been trying for over 12 months. I cannot say enough about this office. If you are looking for a doctor, please please please go here.
Dr. Fajardo and his staff are always amazing. Everyone there is polite, kind and friendly. Dr. Fajardo was with me during my pregnancy planning and then through those longest 10 months of my life. He always was there to help withany concern and made the entire process much more peaceful. He has been my trusted obgyn for 5 years now, and I always recommend him to everyone.
Love the clinic , everyone is so nice and personal and very respectful and professional.
This was my first visit to Dr. Fajardo and I was thoroughly impressed. The office staff, phlebotomist and Dr. Fajardo were very pleasant and informative. The office is very clean and organized and I was seen right on time. I wasespecially pleased that Dr. Fajardo initially met with me in the exam room to talk and go over medical history before making me putting on a gown for an exam. Everything that was done was fully explained and gave me plenty of time to ask questions. Dr. Fajardo is very kind, honest and easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable discussing things with him. I left feeling as if I was given plenty of time and that all my questions were answered. I am so happy I have found a fabulous OBGYN. I would highly recommend his practice.
Doctor Fajardo was very respectful and easy to talk to. Explained everything very clearly. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an OB/GYN provider.
Dr. Farjado is always a gentleman. He is prompt, courteous and always offer sound advice. His office is quick to respond to any messages sent through the portal and always follow up with me when I see them on my appointmentdays. He comes highly recommended; I am sure one appointment with him will confirm everything mentioned.
I was very impressed by the interaction I had today with Dr. Fajardo and his staff. I was looking for a physician as my husband and I are beginning to plan for pregnancy and he carefully listened to all of myquestions and asked me a lot of very good questions also. I hope to continue working with him in the future as we continue down the path.
I didnt like the dim exam rooms in the office, felt like i couldnt see the dr very well. The wait was very long. I felt like the dr was in a rush and didnt address my concern of pain. Not very happy.

Shiksha is a collection of myths, especially one belonging to Indian religious or cultural tradition. Mythology can refer either to the collected myths of a group of people their body of stories which they tell to explain nature, history, and customs or to the study of such myths. Hinduism, the world’s oldest religion, has no beginning–it precedes recorded history. It has no human founder. It is a mystical religion, leading the devotee to personally experience the Truth within, finally reaching the pinnacle of consciousness where man and God are one. Hindus believe in the divinity of the four Vedas, the world’s most ancient scripture, and venerate the Agamas as equally revealed. These primordial hymns are God’s word and the bedrock of Sanatana Dharma, the eternal religion. All the Hindu temples have bell at the entrance of the temple or inside the temple and usually you need to ring it before you enter temple and while doing pooja to God. Bells are important symbols in Hindu worship. The Yug Cycle tells us that we are now living in the Kali Yug. according to Indian Myths the age of darkness, when morality and mental capabilities reach their lowest point in the end of Yug cycle. The Great Indian epic, Mahabharata describes the Kali Yuga as the period when the “World Soul” is Black in color, only one quarter of morality remains, which slowly fade to zero .The KaliYug (Iron Age) was preceded by three others Yugas: SatYug (Golden Age), Treta Yug (Silver Age) and the Dwapara Yug (Bronze Age).

The second of this week's Persona Super Live Concert reveals was the mysterious Persona 5 S, which turns out to be a musou game titled Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers.
P5S will launch on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4, though no timeframe was given for when fans can expect to see the newest Persona spinoff.
Musou games, for those unfamiliar with the term, are games in the style of Dynasty Warriors, focusing on frenetic combat against waves of enemies. Like most modern games in that genre, P5S is being developed as a partnership between Atlus and Koei Tecmo, specifically, KT's Omega Force division.
The trailer (see above) doesn't reveal much information, though Twitter user MysticDistance once again translated the reveal as it happened.
The story takes place, unsurprisingly, in Tokyo when a mysterious occurrence takes place that's similar to several other bizarre events taking place around Japan.
The trailer depicts a few enemy groups, including series staple Persona Pyro Jack and some figures that look like a cross between police officers and mannequins. These enemies are the ones responsible for the strange happenings the Phantom Thieves must investigate.
There will also be a new character in Persona 5 Scramble, and though nothing is known about the newcomer yet, it's believed the girl pictured below might be said character.
Ever since P5's main character Joker was announced for, and made his way to, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Persona fans hoped the mysterious web domain registered as P5S was a sign Persona 5 was coming to the Switch.
After yesterday's announcement of Persona 5: The Royal (or Persona 5 Royal in the West), those hopes diminished somewhat, as it seemed unlikely Atlus would release an enhanced version of the game on one platform and a port of the base game on another.
However, the announcement does fit with both a survey Atlus released last year asking fans what they wanted from a new Persona title and the popularity of Koei Tecmo's other musou collaborations. Fire Emblem Warriors sold over one million copies worldwide, while Hyrule Warriors on Switch surpassed KT's expectations.
When people look at this card, it seems that it requires a lot of mana to be able to accomplish anything. But it is actually not true, as pointed out by Burn players in Modern.
You would need only three mana to cast a copy of Lightning Bolt and a copy of Lava Spike from your graveyard and your library, which equals extra six damage.
With this kind of perspective Finale of Promise could easily become one of the Burn staples, if enough players will notice its level of power.
All hail the Boar God!
The most talked about combo in town is the one when you get to put Emrakul on the battlefield tapped and attacking.
Since there are entire archetypes based around putting Emrakul and other ridiculously powerful creatures on board, Ilharg will definitely see play as that extra damage pusher.
There are simply no drawbacks with Ilharg. It's simple and effective, and that's what most players are looking for.
Depending on how good it will perform there is a big chance that Ilharg will rise in price, and there is no real way to say when it will stop. But this is definitely one of the most investment friendly cards in War of the Spark.
Since Green Sun's Zenith got banned in Modern, players have been frantically looking for a decent alternative. And here it finally arrived in War of the Spark.
It does cost one more green mana, but the effect also allows you to search your graveyard and your library, which means that you can put two creatures on the battlefield.
This card will surely find its way into the Elves decks in Modern and some Stompy lists as well. So the $10 price is fully justifiable.
Currently, Green Sun's Zenith is similarly priced, so Finale of Devastation probably won't go any higher either.
These days Gideon is more of a creature than a planeswalker, but it doesn't make him less valuable. On the contrary, a 4/4 creature with indestructible for three mana is something every creature-based deck wants to play.
His minus ability is definitely exciting, but a bit expensive. This will surely set many players aback, as historically Gideon's ultimate abilities have almost always been very cheap to activate.
As a result, Gideon Blackblade could drop in price, and the limit of it depends how effectively it will be used in current top-tier decks.
Almost all Liliana planeswalkers have been historically very valuable, and it looks like the Dreadhorde General is not an exception either.
All of her abilities are very strong, and this card can be used in almost any type of deck and format. Usually, such powerful universal tools hold up really well on the market, and this one may get even more expensive in time.
The ultimate ability can finish games quickly, and it won't take much to get there, since Liliana already enters the battlefield with six counters. This means that three turns later you can blast all opponent's lands but one and say "Good game."
Teferi's passive ability is going to ruin many control match-ups, as it virtually stops all counters being cast. It will have a huge impact on all formats, which should make this planeswalker one of the most sought out on the market right now.
It is already priced fairly high, but there is no doubt that it will grow even higher, as more expensive formats like Legacy and Vintage may heavily rely on this card in the future.
As for its active abilities, then it doesn't really compare to Teferi from Dominaria, but you can use them to draw an extra card every other turn, and maybe even replay something like Snapcaster Mage. But other than that this card is all about that passive.
When this card was first announced the market has set a price of $50 a piece. In time it halved down, which is a more realistic price. If it shows good results in Standard and beyond, then it will rise up a bit again.
Nicol Bolas is undoubtedly very powerful, so it is definitely the safest investment one can make right now. Although the mana base is a bit awkward, which locks it to be played only in Grixis decks, it's still going to dominate that archetype.
Another possible scenario is that it will have a huge success in Commander format, which is a perfect environment for such powerful planeswalkers.
The previous incarnation of Kefnet from the Amonkhet block has not been particularly successful. However, this one looks like a much better candidate for blue control decks that run a lot of cheap spells.
Both Standard and Modern players will have a blast playing a 4/5 flying creature for four mana that cannot be destroyed or exiled.
This may indicate that God-Eternal Kefnet may rise in price, although not by much.
The new Karn planeswalker has no relevant application in Standard and Limited, but it will find its way into Modern and other older formats. It is relatively cheap for only four mana and has an excellent passive ability, which paralyzes artifacts of your opponents.
This means that it won't see much play in maindecks, but it looks like almost every sideboard would want to have a copy or two of it. So this should help keep its price on the current level.
It's hard to evaluate Ugin, the Ineffable since his abilities look cool at first sight, but then you realize that no colorless deck in Constructed would want to maindeck it.
It's obviously very good for Limited, but that format never had any impact on the financial side of Magic: The Gathering.
Tron archetypes will most likely never play it due to availability of a huge pool of mana, which makes Ugin's passive redundant. While for other colorless staple archetypes this planeswalker would simply be too expensive for six mana.
Of course, it could find its place in Standard, and if that's the case, then the price will stabilize at its current level. Otherwise, expect a significant drop.
This is one of the best new lands in War of the Spark. It has a similar effect to Engineered Explosives, an artifact with extremely effective removal ability.
Currently, Engineered Explosives stands at $40 a piece for an original Fifth Dawn printing. While Blast Zone may not be as fast as Engineered Explosives, the effect still guarantees a pretty high price point for the new land as well.
The other reason why Engineered Explosives is so pricey is the ability to destroy tokens, which is something Blast Zone can't do, since it enters the battlefield with a counter already on it.
That is why don't expect it to rise over $10 a piece, unless players find a simple way to remove the unwanted counter.
War of the Spark is a highly anticipated Magic: The Gathering set, which offers players extra value with the inclusion of a guaranteed planeswalker card in each booster pack. This marketing strategy is one of the best Wizards of the Coast have ever undertaken.
A vast number of planeswalkers in the set are really good, and the rest are definitely playable. There is already more value in this set than in any other Standard set for MtG.
This doesn't mean that prices will not fluctuate, but this is probably the best time to do it if you ever wanted to invest in a Magic set.
Hopefully, our list of the current most expensive cards in War of the Spark will help you make the right choice.
Serbian indie studio Clock Drive Games has announced that its upcoming game, Warlander, will be coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One this year. Previously, the game was slated for a PC-only release.
Warlander is a dark fantasy ARPG, telling a tale of vengeance and betrayal with a faint promise of hope buried underneath it all. It also happens to be Clock Drive's debut game.
As one would expect from an ARPG, combat is at the game's core. Players will wield a weapon described as having a mind of its own, and one that can even use special abilities to alter the environment, making it into a weapon as well. All this is done to sacrifice monstrous enemies to the ancient gods and, thus, earn their pleasure.
The actual fighting relies heavily on skill and employs a unique combination of "ragdoll physics and mesh slicing" to create the feel of cutting through real flesh.
However, the hero's weapon is more than just a sentient piece of metal lusting for blood. It actually forges a relationship with the hero throughout the game. The storyline is fully voiced as well.
Another key feature is the progression system. Players will choose upgrades and skills from three different skill trees, and the dev team said the customization and diversity of skills will provide a good deal of replay value as well.
The games we drew inspiration from such as Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, played beautifully on console so we’re aiming to bring that same rich and premium experience to the players, With deep RPG mechanics and incredibly smooth combat mechanics, Warlander will be a title with tons of replay value for our fans.
Having outlined Warlander's inspiration, though, Rajsic is keen to set it apart from other games, saying Clock Drive added its own twist to genre staples.
Those interested in following Warlander's progress can do so via Discord, Facebook, and Twitter.
Minecraft Java players have just gotten the 1.14 patch, and with it comes some of the cutest animals in the game: Foxes! Luckily, they're not too hard to find and taming them is a snap.
So let's first talk about where you can find foxes, then let's go into how to tame one to follow you around as a companion pet. All in all, it's pretty simple, and shouldn't be too hard to do on a new character.
You'll have an easier time finding foxes at night, as they are mostly nocturnal like in real life.
Arctic foxes are harder to find since they're only in snowy taiga biomes, which makes them all that much better to add to your collection!
It's also good to know that when you breed a red fox and an arctic fox, you have a 50/50 chance of getting a fix kit of either color.
You can gather sweet berries from the sweet berry bushes found scattered around taiga biomes, which is pretty convenient considering you'll be able to find foxes in the area.
After you've followed these steps, the fox kit will be attached to you and will follow you wherever you go. Enjoy your newfound friend!

The sprawling grim dark fantasy ARPG Grim Dawn has seen quite a few changes both to existing masteries and loots drops in recent patches, but also with the addition of whole new masteries in the latest expansions.
With those changes in mind, its time to update our guide to the best Grim Dawn builds. If you want to take a look, our previous version of the best build still has some solid tips if you want to try out a Warder character, although some of that info is now outdated.
Up until the release of Forgotten Gods, one of the top damage dealing classes was easily the Cabalist (Necromancer + Occultist) with a focus on pets and chaos damage. Unfortunately, the latest patches have heavily nerfed chaos damage and items that boost chaos pet damage.
While that's still a potentially viable build just for fun, we can't recommend it as an actual "best" build anymore at this point. Instead, we're going to look at three classes focused on melee attacks, undead pet summoning, and poison / acid damage.
Based on personal play style preference, this is my current favorite build, although your mileage may vary if you don't care for melee combat or using a ton of pet summons.
There's a dual focus here, first on summoning creatures to keep the enemy busy, then on two handed weapon attacks with internal trauma damage. It may seem strange to have two caster classes focused on physical attacks, but trust me, it works wonders.
Internal trauma damage bypasses armor and continues dealing damage over time, making it very helpful with big tanky bosses. In terms of devotion points, Hammer gives you bonus internal trauma, while Shepherd's Crook is a must for the bonus to pets. Be sure to pick a devotion constellation tied to whatever 2 handed weapon type you end up using (Rhowan's Scepter gives a ton of internal trauma damage for maces).
The goal with this build is to always have 8 skeletons, a briarthorn, a blight fiend, and a primal spirit to thin out the enemy while you go to town with a 2 handed weapon.
Of course there are ways to tweak the skills if you want to focus more on pets than melee attacks, as Reaping Strike and Necrotic Edge can be swapped for maxing out the Blight Fiend and Briarthorn upgrade skills instead.
So long as you buy faction items or equip items that that increase poison resistance, you'll even do very well in the harder Ashes Of Malmouth content like the Ancient Grove sealed dungeon.
There are really only two main weaknesses to pay attention to here.
First up, the only place you are really going to struggle is with Father Kymon near the end of Forgotten Gods, who will be difficult to overcome with this build on epic and ultimate modes.
Since Kymon can one shot many players with melee hits, you want to stay far away and let your pets do the work, or equip an item that gives you an extra ranged power to use while you hide in the area's entrance.
Second, while this build will see you surrounded by a horde of pets, unfortunately it doesn't have quite enough summoning potential to actually unlock the Pet Hoarder achievement... unless you manage to find a significant number of loot drops that give you bonus summoning powers.
As a brand new mastery, the player base is still trying to figure out the best secondary class and skill load out for the Oathkeeper, and many players are convinced only Soldier or Demolitionist are viable options.
They are dead wrong (at least for the moment before any future patches).
The Oathkeeper has excellent synergy with poison and acid when paired with the Nighblade mastery. To get the most use out of this build, obviously you are going to want to equip any items that increase your overall acid damage.
In terms of devotions, make sure you pick up Rat, Eye Of The Guardian, Scorpion, Manticore, Murmur, Abomination, and Yugol The Insatiable Night for maximum acid damage output. Ghoul also works well, since it gives you some healing while attacking capability for survival.
Switching between Amastara's Blade Burst and the Righteous Fervor attacks can result in crazy damage to just about any enemy as poison and acid eat away at health. Don't forget to summon your Guardian so he can also go out and perform area burst acid attacks!
The main downside here is a lack of crit percentage, but with how much poison, acid, bleed, and internal trauma damage you will be dealing, it isn't that much of a weakness.
For maximum damage output, don't forget to grab those Dreeg-focused faction items that add in additional poison/acid damage to whatever dual wielding weapons you are using.
A lot of the pet builds were sadly diminished with the Forgotten Gods expansion, but this one remains viable if you play it right.
A counterpoint to the Ritualist, this mastery combo is mostly about summoning creatures and letting them do the damage, while then lowering enemy resistances so your summons can tear at them with damage types like acid, cold, lightning, etc.
For devotion points, Ulzuin's Torch is a great idea that can be bound to any of your summon skills, as it eventually gives you the chance to randomly call down a high damage meteor swarm with any basic attack. Other than that, Behemoth, Jackal, and Rhowan's Crown are all critical for the bonuses to pets.
Finally, don't forget Modgrogen the Wolf, as the final star on that devotion constellation gives you Howl Of Mogrdogen for a big bonus to your pets.
Your focus here is on getting as many pets on the screen as possible that all deal elemental damage, while you then use your Occultist abilities to lower the resistances of any enemies.
The main weakness is that your character won't be directly dealing a ton of damage, and of course you don't have a ton of defense. Just make sure to always be on the lookout for any equipment that gives pet bonuses, elemental damage bonuses, or debuffs the enemy.
Want to see what builds other players have come up with? The Grim Dawn build compendium over in the game's official forums are a great place to start.
However, keep in mind that many of those builds revolve heavily around using very specific equipment, which you may not be able to get since loot is random.
Many custom stages are re-creating classic scenes or characters, from 8-bit Mario and Link to Kirby stages and more. This one takes on the ambitious task of re-imagining an early first Pokemon battle, making good use of the foreground and background elements to do so.
Distance drawing is obviously rather difficult to realize with stage creation, so putting Squirtle in the background helps achieve the same affect without sacrificing the feel of the source material.
Charmander's flaming tail is particularly appreciated and actually serves to limit recovery options should you fall off the top left platform.
The stage background itself is fitting, too, since this is very much in the same vein as the first stage and Final Destination: no traps, no gimmicks, just two big platforms, some height variation, and a lotta smashing.
Like the Dr. Phil stage, one of the main draws here is atmosphere (though admittedly of a rather different kind than the Dr. Phil stage). This stage combines the best of nostalgia for those of us who grew up with original Pokemon Red and Blue, with a similar appeal from the simple-yet-solid mechanics and stage design so common with earlier Smash games.
It's hard to pick just 10 stages from a huge and ever-growing list of Smash Bros. stage builder creations, but there you have it — our top 10 choices for now.
Whether it's dancing on the frozen tears of Waluigi or falling to your doom in warp-trap hell, hopefully, these stages give you some ideas of your own to share with the world too.
This is a really good trick stage. The title hints that it's going to be one of the many stages re-creating the Switch itself in handheld mode, but obviously, that's not what it does. It's a stage full of switches instead.
The best part? They do absolutely nothing when activated. Invite a friend and don't tell them, then sit back and watch the fun.
Or if you want to enjoy it like a decent human being, that's fine too, because there's a good stage without the switch-y deception.
As you can see, falling off a platform gives you a good chance of landing in lava or a cannon that might shoot you off-screen. There is some deception there too, though.
The cannons are positioned to where they just shoot you into the magma for the most part. Anticipating a bigger blast means your first reaction is to try and move or jump, which ends up positioning you in or right near the next cannon anyway.
There are a lot of outlandish custom Smash stages, but this is certainly one of the more... interesting ones.
The man's face resembles a mid-20th-Century cartoon design. Despite being a little creepy, it's actually quite good, particularly the use of texture and how the hair was handled.
What message Danny is trying to send to us about him isn't as clear, though. Is he lonely? Did he turn to grapes to heal his lonely heart? Or is he choosing grapes over loneliness? We may never know.
At the very least, it makes for a varied Smash match. The three main surfaces lend themselves to different kinds of combat, so it's never a dull moment with Mr. Thing.
Hurling foes off the grapes is satisfying in itself. However, the lonely letters make for a different kind of fight that mixes offense and defense and forces you to use powerful moves to get opponents out from their alphabetic trenches.
Or if you want, there's the more traditional kind of brawl waiting for you on top of the hair.
The Octo Calamari stage is a nicely balanced example of how several features come together effectively. It's nice to see a central Splatoon theme included in a quieter fashion as well, unlike, say, Dr. Phil.
This one is a more straightforward stage without specific gimmicks meant to alter your experience. You've got several platforms to fight on, but the gray ones and larger green block are the only stable ones.
The round pink platform that seems it would be the perfect recovery tool rotates, which makes grabbing on rather more difficult than you might think at first. Those two blue ones don't offer firm footing either.
One of the things that makes this stage worthwhile is the second main platform towards the stage's bottom. These out of the way areas aren't too common in Smash stages; the Temple of Time and Palutena's Temple come to mind, but not many others.
Off-center fighting areas like this are perfect for larger matches if you're trying to lure a single fighter to you or want the added risk of being so near the boundaries.
The warp points deserve attention too. A lot of creations are using them, but not necessarily in an effective way. These actually add to the experience because while they do transport you away from immediate danger, they also put you in a dangerous position.
Poor Waluigi. All one of his friends, plus every enemy, joins the fun in Smash, while he's left by himself in a support trophy container. This rendition of a very sad Waluigi probably isn't far off the mark for everyone's favorite purple anti-hero.
There are other Waluigi stages, but this one breaks the fourth wall so well and encapsulates the general mood surrounding his absence from Smash. The use of background elements is noteworthy too.
Plus it's a fun stage with a lot of movement.
The shorter platforms don't work for long, drawn-out combat. You'll either get knocked off or move about to escape and draw your foe into a fight on your own ground.
The lower levels might look slippery, but they actually aren't, which provides an additional fighting area away from the main focus. There's just enough room between the bottom-most platform and Waluigi's crystallized tears to make recovery difficult for hurled opponents.
Waluigi's nose, left 'stache, and hat brim are another good risk area. The space is small, and there's hardly anything to break a fall to the left. A strong smash could send an opponent flying off-screen or at least force them to climb all the way back up, granting a major advantage to whoever occupies the hat.
Pls Dont Fall is another stage built around challenge and careful movement. There are very few actual spaces for combat, which makes this stage perfect for heavy hitting melee fighters like King K. Rool and Link.
That being said, it lends itself to characters with very good recovery, too, like Kirby and...Kirby.
That's because falling off the platforms almost inevitably means losing a point. It's possible to try and reach the warp point, but it just throws you out to the left by the icy-looking platform, which is pretty difficult (read: almost impossible) to get back from.
The canons are one major reason why. As you can see, each points to the center of the map. Most chuck you into the left warp point, but the others shoot you out to fry in the central magma pool. Even if you make it out, there's no helpful canon to get you back into the action.
This is also an example of how devious bumpers can be. There's a 50/50 chance the stage's bumpers will keep you from the death trap, depending on how you hit them and how fast you react.
It's brutal, but it certainly keeps players on their toes.
Sanic might not be quite as ubiquitous as SpongeBob in the custom creations area, but there are quite a few of them roaming about. This is one of the better ones for a few reasons.
The first is that you can't help but look at it and think "Gotta Go Fast." It embodies everything meme-ish about Sanic, and he just looks so earnest and determined. It's a good rendering of an intentionally bad illustration as well, which is interesting in itself.
Fortunately, it doesn't just look amusing. It sets itself apart from other Sanic stages by making for a good Smash arena.
The screenshot doesn't quite show it, but anything behind Sanic gets blown back to the left by a surprisingly strong wind. The front side isn't affected though (which would seem like an oversight on the creator's part, but this is Sanic after all).
Any battle naturally becomes a scramble to remain on the top or the right, then. Accidentally jumping too far, getting tossed off-screen, or starting on the left makes remaining in the fight pretty difficult. It also gives players an extra focal point in battle as they try to push opponents off Sanic's head.
Molten Moonlit is one of many molten-themed stages, and they all present unique strengths with how they place their lava traps.
Moonlit is a bit different, though, and really lends itself to a sudden death style match or one-on-one combat (or a four-person match if you like chaos).
For one thing, those two platforms you see are essentially the only landscape you get for fighting. The earthen platform up top isn't practical to reach, though you could with certain characters like Kirby.
Jump too high or get tossed too far off the stage, and you get punished with the lava chunks. Apart from making combat a bit more difficult than usual, the way the stage is set up means damage counts are going to get a lot higher, since there are only a few openings out of the molten center.
The effects Ohyou used make the stage stand out as well. The metal platforms shine in the "moonlight", and there's a nifty blur effect as you run around on them, mimicking the heat blur you'd expect from being so near a hot surface.
It was bound to happen eventually. There's already a Steve Harvey and some other daytime television notables, so Dr. Phil couldn't be too far away.
The likeness is uncanny. Well, not completely, because Dr. Phil's eyes don't pop out of his head. But it's pretty impressive how a few textures, colors, and well-placed bits of virtual hair can strongly resemble something in real life.
Like Sanic (featured later in this list), this stage isn't just for looks. It's a solid Smash stage as well. The letters spelling his name serve as useful side platforms for escaping the melee if need be or storming back in from above. They also act as a hindrance if you're trying to get back to the middle of the stage, but can simultaneously keep you from getting launched too far.
The eye parts and mustache are handy regular platforms not unlike something you'd see in a Sora-built Smash stage.
Unlike World of Bump, the Dr. Phil stage is focused solely on hand-to-hand combat, with no gimmicks getting in the way of the showdown except the name from time to time.
Just try not to think about how your every move is being evaluated by a trained TV psychologist.
World of Bump is pretty impressive for a few reasons. What initially looks like a haphazard mess is actually a carefully planned layout of bumpers that adds a nice layer of difficulty to each match.
It's possible to begin a fight without being affected by the bumpers, but inevitably, you'll get tossed around as the fracas progresses. The spacing is enough so it's not an endless bounce, though; there's a chance to recover and hop in between the other bumpers.
It's actually an effective way of getting players used to how each character moves and how to vary jump heights and ranges.
The ones on the edge of the stage are the most interesting, though.
If you've played Smash even a little, chances are, you know how it works when a foe chucks a bumper on the edge. You'll either get a nice recovery bounce, or you're chucked down to your doom.
That's basically every time characters fall off the stage here. Expect plenty of score variations in World of Bump and some hectic, frenetic matches on whole.
At long last, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fans have access to the Stage Builder mode once more. It was a staple feature in Brawl and the Wii U installment, but with no mention of anything like it from Nintendo when the game first launched, many wondered if we'd ever see it again.
It's a robust mode too, letting players experiment with foreground and background elements to create interesting features and pretty much opening the door to whatever takes the player's fancy at the time.
Naturally that leads to some unique creations and lessons in anatomy, but there are a lot of interesting and just plain fun stages as well.
This list compiles 10 of the best in those latter categories. Some are quirky, some are just plain weird, and others demonstrate solid design principles.
Overall, though, each stage, however varied they may be, makes for a different kind of Smash match, from those suited to tense death-match style fights to others emphasizing movement and strategy to overcome tricky obstacles.
On May 31, Snail Games will release its voxel-based sandbox survival game PixARK upon the world, bringing it to Steam, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. The game, which is a voxel take on the ARK survival games takes players to a world filled with great variety, from the landscape to the creatures that inhabit it.
In order to survive in PixARK, players must tame the creatures and the land, craft everything they need, and build a nice safe base in which to reside. The game offers players an infinite amount of maps and procedurally generated quests. The game provides even more variety by allowing players to team up and form a tribe, unless they'd rather go it alone.
As with most voxel-based games, players can build almost anything they want. They'll gather materials and craft everything from tools -- both technological and magical -- to giant fortresses. In their spare time, players can explore, delving into undiscovered areas.
A big focus of PixARK will be taming animals. Players won't be just killing them in standard online quest fashion, but actually capturing and making them your allies. They'll even be able to ride some of these creatures, including dragons and dinosaurs.
Currently, PixARK is available on PC as an Early Access game. This means that while the game hasn't officially launched, those willing to risk playing a game that's still being developed have been able to get a bit of a head start. Thanks to that, those looking to pick up PixARK at launch will have a good bit of information on the game -- including a large selection of guides right here on GameSkinny.
For those who haven't yet grabbed the game and don't want to wait to grab it on PC, PixARK can still be purchased as an Early Access offering for $24.99. This price may change a bit once the game officially releases.
As promised, Atlus provided a new info dump on Persona 5: The Royal during day one of the Persona Super Live concert. The information and trailer cover new story scenarios and gameplay elements, new frenemy Kasumi Yoshizawa, and much more.
All this confirms The Royal is an enhanced version of Persona 5, rather than a spinoff title.
The trailer is, of course, entirely in Japanese, but Gematsu provided a translation of the Persona 5: The Royal website information that was updated to accompany the trailer.
Kasumi Yoshizawa, the female character introduced in March, isn't a new protagonist. Instead, she's a transfer student who admires the main character but seems to dislike the Phantom Thieves on the whole.
Whether she turns out to be an enemy or ally remains to be seen, according to Atlus. However, one of the new screenshots does show her in attire similar to the Phantom Thieves.
The Royal also introduces a new Confidant (P5's Social Links) in Takuto Maruki. He's a part-time counselor hired based on concerns students voiced in April — in other words, because of Kamoshida. His Arcana is listed as "Le Consultant," which is new both to Persona and tarot Arcana in general.
Like Persona 4 Golden before it, The Royal will let players experience what happens after December, in the untold third semester.
Twitter user MysticDistance translated the information as it was being broadcast and found Atlus may just be teasing a human form for Morgana as well. On the website, the image being translated comes alongside the information about the third semester, so perhaps Morgana is getting more attention this go around as well.
Players can look forward to new date spots. In a throwback to Persona 3's special moments with Elizabeth and Theodore, the main character will also be able to date the twins, Carolina and Justine.
Screenshots do show Kasumi as a dating partner, too, but whether she represents an Arcana like other love interests traditionally do in the series wasn't mentioned.
New foes and new battle strategies will be introduced, in addition to a new event in the Velvet Room and new treasures in each Palace.
Along with these things comes a few quality of life enhancements. The game will provide suggestions for players to improve their stats and Confidant relationships, and there will be an auto-read feature added too.
Finally, the game boasts new original songs, BGM tracks, and opening vocals.
Persona 5: The Royal launches exclusively for PlayStation 4 in Japan on October 31 this year. However, Atlus announced a 2020 release date for North America and Europe. More information is expected to come on May 9.
BioWare's latest game, Anthem, is getting a slight change in its content roadmap, with the team prioritizing bug fixes over new content in the near future.
The company's lead producer and head of live services took to Reddit yesterday to give a general update fans on how the development team plans to handle Anthem in the coming months. They said the severity and volume of bugs means the best choice moving forward is to delay already-announced content for Act 1.
Most of these, particularly the Cataclysm, are connected to endgame content, which many claim there isn't enough of.
It's not a completely unexpected move, either. Anthem was February's best-selling game, but the bugs and problems with it were fairly substantial from the beginning.
The team also provided updates for a few more specific changes they plan on making. The first is the loot system. The post recognizes problems with it and acknowledges there are problems with it that need fixing. At this point there isn't anything they said could be shared. However, future updates are planned.
That communication pattern of not sharing too much information is another aspect BioWare plans to tweak.
The team believes a significant part of fans' disappointment stems from BioWare sharing too many details about planned content too early. When problems or bugs arise, as they have done already, the team has to delay the promised content, which angers fans.
Responses to the update suggest a different problem, though. Most fans are claiming the issue isn't bad communication or lack of content; it's the base game not delivering the promises BioWare made back at last year's E3.
This isn't an issue unique to BioWare, though. Hello Games encountered a similar problem with No Man's Sky when it first launched and didn't meet players' expectations. Now, though, it's a well-established game with a host of new content planned for the summer.

Mortal Kombat 11 just released, but the newest fighting game in NetherRealm's storied catalog is already deeply discounted on several storefronts.
Currently, Amazon is offering the game for $49.99 on the PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. That's $10 off MK11's original list price. There is no confirmation if this is a permanent price drop by the online retailer or simply a timed special.
The best part is that the $10 discount applies to the game's premium edition and the Amazon special edition. You can pick up each edition by following the links below.
Additionally, the fighter is currently available for PC on Green Man Gaming at a steep discount as part of the retailer's Spring Sale.
Currently, MK11's standard and premium editions are discounted 25% on the storefront, bringing each to $44.99 and $74.99 respectively.
Edit: Seems like the below code (WB25) is no longer available.
However, you can enter the code WB25 to get another 25% off, bringing the standard edition to $33.74 and the premium edition to $56.24 — both ludicrous prices for a game that just released.
Green Man Gaming's spring sale lasts until April 30.
Although this isn't technically a discount, Target is offering buyers a $10 gift card when they purchase any version of MK11.
You can find the deal here.
While our writer is still working on our Mortal Kombat 11 review, many fans and critics have already weighed in, mostly praising the newest fighter from NetherRealm Studios. However, some have voiced concern over the game's difficulty and economy.
Luckily, Ed Boon, co-creator of Mortal Kombat and creative director at NetherRealm, confirmed via Twitter that a fix was incoming "soon".
As development on Grim Dawn has been active since the game released in 2016, a huge amount of new equipment and loot has become available to perfect your character build (if you have the patience to grind for it).
With a host of new items and mastery classes arriving in recent patches and DLC content, anyone coming back into the game after a lengthy period away may not know what everything is meant to actually do.
Much like the transmogrification from Diablo or similar effects from a host of other ARPGs, Grim Dawn added in the ability to change the appearance of equipment with the Ashes Of Malmouth and Forgotten Gods expansions.
Your perfect equipment lineup may give the stats you need but not give you the visual aesthetic you want, which is where illusions come in handy. But what about when you no longer want an illusion in place? That's where you need to grab yourself an Illusion-Be-Gone.
Adding illusions to your inventory in Grim Dawn is fairly expensive at 6,911 iron bits a pop. That's a total of more than 50,000 iron bits if you put an illusion on every piece of equipment and are using a shield or dual wielding.
Rather than spending more iron bits to change the illusion back to its original appearance, you can use the Illusion-Be-Gone item to automatically remove a single illusion on any piece of equipment. This works on weapons and armor.
To use it, just right click the Illusion-Be-Gone jar, then left click whatever inventory item has the illusion you don't want to use anymore (just like if you were adding a component to a piece of equipment).
Want to grab an Illusion-Be-Gone? They don't cost anything and are available for free from Kory The Keeper, who stands in front of the main gates to Devil's Crossing (right next to the salvage dealer). This is who previously handed out backer rewards to players who supported Grim Dawn's development on Kickstarter.
After approaching Kory The Keeper, choose the dialog prompt "I'm tired of these illusions" followed by "Receive Illusion-Be-Gone" and Illusion-Be-Gone will be added to your inventory immediately.
Unfortunately, you can only grab one at a time from him, since you need to following a dialog prompt to get them. He also won't give you a new one until you use the old one. Weirdly, you can't buy them in bulk anywhere at the moment, so you have to remove illusions one by one.
An Illusion-Be-Gone takes up four squares in your inventory, so I recommend dropping it into smuggler's item stash until you actually want to use it to ditch any given illusion.
Note that since Illusion-Be-Gone is a soul bound item, it can't be placed in the item transfer chests in the smuggler menu for transferring to another character. That's not a problem though, because you can just grab another one for free from Kory with your other characters at any time.
A new headset has been added to SteelSeries' already impressive Arctis gaming headset lineup.
Today, the company revealed the Arctis 9X, created specifically for the Xbox One. This is the first ever Arctis headset designed for the console, and it features Xbox Wireless connectivity, allowing for easy setup. It also includes Bluetooth audio.
The Arctis 9X connects to the Xbox One the same way a wireless controller does, allowing players to get it connected and start using it almost immediately. It doesn't require a dongle to work on the console since it's been fully integrated with the console. This connectivity has been made possible thanks to Microsoft working with SteelSeries to build the 9X "from the ground up."
According to Steel Series Senior Product Category Manager of Audio, Brian Fallon, the partnership resulted in, "the highest quality implementation of the Xbox Wireless connection seen on an Xbox headset to-date."
Other features of the headset include dual wireless technology and a retractable ClearCast microphone with noise cancellation. The dual wireless tech allows Xbox One players to use the headset with other devices via Bluetooth without having to disconnect from the Xbox. This means they can take calls, listen to music, or use VoIP while still receiving audio from their game.
An added benefit is that the Arctis 9X can be used with any Bluetooth device such as a cell phone on the go. No Xbox One is needed.
Since the 9X is part of the Arctis family, it also uses the Arctis soundscape tech to emphasize more subtle but important sounds. That means players should be able to pick up audio clues in games that they might otherwise miss while playing.
As for keeping the 9X powered, the device delivers a reported 20 hours of battery life. So forgetful players don't need to worry if they skip charging it every once in a while.
Those interested in picking up the SteelSeries Arctis 9X can do so on the SteelSeries site. The headset is priced at $199.99.
Once upon a time, Steam was the only digital games storefront to provide its users with deep discounts on titles old and new. However, over the past several years, that's started to change, with Sony and Microsoft getting in on the action.
While there was a time when PlayStation's sales and Sony's PlayStation Plus offerings were laughable, that's no longer the case. These days, PS Plus sales are well worth paying attention to.
From now until April 30 at 11 a.m. EDT, PlayStation Plus members can get up to 80% off a number of high-quality titles, recent releases, and indie gems. That's not including this month's free offerings of Conan Exiles and The Surge.
Below, we'll highlight some of the better offerings available, including those for the PS4, PS3, and PSVR. Some highlights include Assassin's Creed Origins, Battlefield V, Shenmue I + II, and the Dead Space trilogy.
Each game is linked to its PlayStation Store page. Additionally, some games have multiple editions, many of which are also discounted and can be found on the store.
For a complete list of all 264 discounted games on sale, check out the PlayStation Store.
Mojang recently announced a hefty new update for Minecraft's Bedrock edition. Called Village & Pillage, the update adheres to essentially every platform for which Minecraft exists, including PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Windows 10, iOS, Android, and Java.
The update introduces several new mechanics, overhauls the village system, and provides new achievements, among many other things.
To start with, the villages themselves are now more varied, matching whatever biomes in which they spawn, with architecture specific to plains, desert, taiga, and savannah. Villagers have new jobs, and their clothing reflects both those jobs and the biome in which they live — even Zombie Villagers.
The update provides many smaller quality of life changes for villagers as well, such as making them sleep in their beds and improving their pathfinding abilities. A new set of changes improving the village trading system is included too, and should players wish for all their villagers to immediately run inside their houses, they can ring a Bell to grant that wish.
Some of the new villager jobs and their associated job sites benefit players as well, including the Cartography Table, Blast Furnace, and Smoker.
As the update name indicates, the other half of the update focuses on Pillagers, a brand-new Illager type with smaller noses and reduced intelligence.
While not the most capable of foes, these Pillagers swarm villages under certain conditions.
Should players encounter an Illager mob around one of the new outpost towers and slay the Illager Captain, a Bad Omen descends on them. Entering a village with a Bad Omen triggers a raid, where waves of Pillager enemies descend on the hapless village.
Successfully defending the village earns the player the Hero of the Village title, which grants various discounts during trade with those villagers.
Sweet Berries have been added as a new food in the taiga biomes, while campfires can now be used to light the night and a home or cook some food.
The new achievements revolve around the Pillager portion of the update — for defeating a captain, saving a village, and so on. There is one exception, though: one new achievement is granted when players befriend cats, of which there can now be more.
Mojang said the update should be live on all supported platforms now, but if it isn't, then players should check their downloads and wait a bit longer.
The full patch notes, including bug fixes and all the minute details, can be found here.
We may be a ways off from colonizing and turning Mars green in real life, but Surviving Mars owners will be able to simulate the whole process soon enough. The game's much-anticipated Green Planet expansion has been announced for release on May 16.
Surviving Mars: Green Planet promises to bring the (almost) full experience of taking the giant inhospitable space rock that is Mars and turning it into a lush planet that can be widely populated. Humanity's endgame, if you will.
Green Planet will introduce terraforming to the Surviving Mars formula, adding a whole new stage of depth of management to the game that will ultimately give players something to truly do once they have their colony up and running.
Turning the red planet green isn't easy, and that's proven by the new terraforming resources players will have to manage in the expansion, including areas' atmosphere, temperature, moisture, and other further in-depth aspects as the planet changes.
Check out the below tutorial from Paradox Interactive to see some of these things in action. They're crazy cool.
Of course, the expansion will also have new special projects, climate calamities, buildings, and more to go with the game's new endgame direction. That's not all they have in store for the game, though.
Surviving Mars will also be getting a DLC called the Project Laika content pack. Project Laika will bring up to eight different animals to the game for players to raise on Mars for food and 25 different animals as pets, which will roam the landscape once it's lush enough.
Surviving Mars owners will be able to pick up the Green Planet expansion for $19.99 and the Project Laika pack for $5.99 on May 16. Both will be available for purchase together as a bundle for $23.90, a tad bit cheaper for these seemingly both worthwhile additions to Haemimont's Mars colony manager.
The cost of a new Liliana planeswalker is pretty high. But Vraska, Relic Seeker proved that six-mana planeswalkers have the right to live in Standard, if the power level is high enough.
Her ultimate ability is especially strong, as it removes lands as well, which is basically game-winning at that point. But she could be simply used for her card draw and sacrifice abilities alone, as those two pretty much control the game on their own.
So if you are looking for an extra planeswalker for your control deck, then look no further than Liliana, Dreadhorde General.
Besides three incredibly strong active abilities the brand new Nicol Bolas planeswalker has the most overpowered passive in War of the Spark. Being able to use any other planeswalker's abilities, including opponent's, is just outright ridiculous.
This in combination with The Elderspell is a surefire winning combo. By the way, for this to work you don't even need your opponent to play planeswalkers, you could just destroy your own for those sweet eight loyalty counters on Nicol Bolas.
Of course, if there is a legendary creature on the battlefield, then you will need to find the way to remove it, too. But that is not a problem if you run Spark Harvest.
Here's a card that deals with all those pesky token-based decks. This means that Massacre Girl might not be the best maindeck choice, but it is a definite sideboard bomb.
She could be casually run as a one-off in maindeck as well, since running a 4/4 with menace for five mana is just really good.
Massacre Girl is basically Ritual of Soot with a body, which makes it a highly desirable choice for superfriends decks that don't run that many creatures, but would like to deploy a few threats against curve-based creature decks.
This is the god that replaced Hazoret in the War of the Spark set. It has the same cost, but the effect and the power level have been creeped up.
You can run this one equally successfully in all types of red decks from aggro to control. It is also extremely hard to remove, unless you play cards that can discard it from opponent's hand or straight-up counterspell it.
That is why it would be smart to play it alongside Rhythm of the Wild, which deals with counterspells and gives it Haste.
So it looks like Gruul lists will benefit the most from Ilharg, the Raze-Boar.
Last season was full of mono red decks running Experimental Frenzy, an enchantment that allows you to play cards from the top of your library. But there is a significant drawback in it, which forbids you to play cards from your hand. Chandra, Fire Artisan solves this problem and allows you to do both on the same turn.
If you manage to protect it long enough, then it will also deal seven damage using her minus ability. But she also deals damage in case she gets attacked or damaged by non-creature spells.
Either way Chandra is a real powerhouse for aggressive red decks, and those have always been top-tier choices in Magic: The Gathering.
Jeskai players have been waiting for this card for a long time. It basically preserves all your Dive Down spells, and can be even used to a great effect with Thrash.
Another great choice for this card would be Essence Capture, a counterspell that also puts +1/+1 counter on your creature, which is especially relevant in the War of the Spark meta.
It'll keep you supplied with counterspells until Feather, the Redeemed stays on board, and will help you grow it bigger as time passes by.
But this doesn't mean that it can't be used in straight-up Boros Aggro decks. On the contrary, you will see it more often than you would expect.
With the inclusion of so many new planeswalkers, it's no secret that War of the Spark meta will be populated with planeswalker-heavy lists. This knowledge will prompt many players to include The Elderspell into their sideboards.
It is clearly a very powerful removal spell that can be also used to a great effect in a main deck. In that case you also need to run Nicol Bolas, Dragon-God, then wait for the right moment, and finally use its minus eight ability to win the game.
But as already mentioned, this will be mainly used in sideboards as one of the best tools against superfriend decks.
Magic players who had the chance to play Heart of Kiran during the Kaladesh block know too well how strong an ability to remove counters instead of paying mana can be.
But Heart of Kiran was limited only to planeswalker counters, while Soul Diviner can remove counters of any types from creatures, lands, artifacts, and planeswalkers.
Also, there is no cost involved in drawing the cards, so this is clearly a very powerful draw effect with no drawbacks.
Grixis Midrange and Control players will definitely play Soul Diviner alongside the new Blast Zone land and a few other spells with Amass.
Here's another one-mana common, but this time it's a removal spell that would definitely fit any Aristocrats deck.
There is also a possibility of fitting it into a more combo-oriented sacrifice deck that generates damage by killing off your own creatures. It's the kind of deck that uses Cruel Celebrant and Mayhem Devil.
This means that Spark Harvest will find its way into several different lists that run a lot of sacrificeable tokens/creatures.
But even if you don't have anything to sacrifice on the battlefield, then paying four mana for a removal spell is a totally fair deal.
This little buddy doesn't have a terribly wide range of applications, but it doesn't have to be anything else but a great one-drop for Rakdos Aristocrats or Mardu Aggro lists that run Judith, the Scourge Diva and Tajic, Legion's End.
The Haste part is what sells this card, just like it was the case with Fanatical Firebrand. But it also has Lifelink, which signals the possible use of Ajani Pridemate in lists that also run Legion's Landing.
Of course, it's important to have this in the opening hand and let it accelerate your damage from the very beginning of the match-up. But if you happen to draw it later, make sure that it has some buffs added to it so it can be viable in later turns as well.
There are several really exciting new lands in War of the Spark, and it looks like Karn's Bastion is going to go into all Proliferate-based decks in Standard.
It's not just a land, which comes into play untapped, it's also a repeatable spell/utility that can make all your creatures and planeswalkers grow every turn.
The two best archetypes for Karn's Bastion are Green-White Tokens and Abzan Superfriends. The first one will use the Bastion for growing creatures/tokens, and the second one is focused around keeping planeswalkers alive and exploiting their powerful minus abilities.
Also, if you have additional tools to untap your lands at your end steps, such as Wilderness Reclamation, then you could use the Proliferate ability twice a turn.
Since it was announced that War of the Spark, would include 36 planeswalkers, the newest Magic: The Gathering card expansion instantly became the most anticipated set in years.
This opens up a vast pool of possibilities for superfriends decks in Standard for sure. But there are also other great cards in the new set, which could easily replace the tried-and-tested bombs of the past sets.
If you regularly play Standard in MtG, then be sure to check out this list of the best cards in War of the Spark that should help you build more powerful decks and easily subdue the new meta.
Bandai Namco and Double Fine Productions released a new batch of screenshots for their upcoming rogue-like game RAD, showcasing some of the varied environments players can expect to traverse through when the game launches sometime this summer.
Billy, the town farmer if he only had something to plant.
The second biome received the most attention, though. It highlights a major theme in the game: the further RAD ventures into the Wastelands, the more dangerous they become, thanks to the higher levels of corruption.
It's these environments that eventually end up taking their toll on the main character himself (also referred to as RAD in the trailer).
As the recently released announcement trailer showed, RAD centers around one young boy's journey to save the world from facing its third round of complete destruction. The goal is bringing lush, green life back to the barren world.
To do that, players combat creatures mutated by toxins and restore life to ruins, which in turn seems to purify that specific area.
However, there's a catch. RAD brings life back to the world, but, like the monsters, he suffers from exposure to the toxins he fights. This exposure leads to various mutations at different times, giving RAD new body parts or even completely transforming him into a new creature.
The benefit of this is instead of using only his trusty bat, or whatever he has to hand, RAD gains new powers and abilities to help overcome the obstacles he faces.
RAD is expected to launch this summer on PC via Steam, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch.
Mortal Kombat 11 may have just released today for PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, but that doesn't mean that developer NetherRealm Studios isn't still hard at work making the fighting game the best it can be.
As reported by IGN, the developer plans to release a patch which aims to amend the game's Towers of Time game mode as well as the MK11's economy. Taking to Twitter earlier today, Ed Boon, co-creator of Mortal Kombat and creative director at NetherRealm, said that a "hot fix" is inbound, and that it should arrive sometime very, very soon.
In case you missed yesterday’s Kombat Kast: We have a hot fix/improvements koming to address those super hard Towers of Time as well as better rewards/economy to be used in the Krypt.
Hoping/expecting it’ll be more like HOURS than days.
The patch comes after some early adopters have voiced concerns over the difficulty and balance of the game's Towers of Time mode, a combat ladder similar to tower modes in previous series installments.
Reports have indicated that the game mode forces players into certain playstyles, unfairly penalizes players with low drop rates, and improperly measures in-game timers, leading some players to lose tower progress because they did not move fast enough through the game's trials.
Further, others have lamented that MK11's Krypt presents a series of "content grind walls" riddled with RNG and microtransactions. Here, certain unlockables, such as artwork and even Fatalities, are locked behind random drops and paywalls. However, it is worth noting that Boon's Twitter statement did not mention microtransactions.
Currently, there is no word on when the patch will release or exactly what it will fix in regards to the two modes in Mortal Kombat 11.
As an action RPG filled to the brim with random loot drops, building the perfect Grim Dawn character is a heavily RNG-focused prospect as you hope for the best weapons and rare crafting materials to magically appear after slaughtering a horde of creatures.
All of the rare crafting materials such as Tainted Brain Matter, Blood Of Ch'thon, and Ancient Hearts (very) occasionally drop from heroic chests, end boss chests, and one shot chests.
In particular, I've had success finding Tainted Brain Matter after defeating The Master Of Flesh and opening the chests labeled as The Master's Trove at the end of Ashes of Malmouth.
The locked chests that have to be opened with dynamite in Deadman's Gulch also occasionally drop them.
Frankly, the percentage chance on chests is low enough that its more of a "Hey, cool, it finally dropped," than anything that can be reliably farmed, however, so this isn't the best way to go about finding rare crafting ingredients.
Battling a star marked heroic atherial.
The best spots to find plenty of these are types of enemies are The Hidden Laboratory (Act I), the Gates Of Necropolis (Act IV), Port Valbury (the roguelike challenge dungeon in Act III) and any area in the city of Malmouth (Ashes Of Malmouth expansion).
Warden Krieg in the Hidden Laboratory near the end of Act I is by far the best boss to farm at lower levels, because you get plenty of potential aetherial hero spawns along the way to fighting him.
No matter where you go to find aetherials for farming Tainted Brain Matter, it is critical to note that this rare crafting component will not drop from creatures that are 10 or more levels below your character level.
Why does that matter? Because each difficulty level of the game has level caps for creatures in specific areas. This is easily the top reason why new players can't ever seem to find Tainted Brain Matter no matter how many aetherials they kill.
If you've already hit level 65 - 70, then you simply can't farm Tainted Brain Matter on normal mode any longer. At that point, it's time to move up to epic difficulty and replay the campaign until you reach areas with aetherial and aether corruption heroes.
Horrus the Cursed Smith found to the north of the rift gate at the Gates Of Necropolis (near the end of Act IV in the base campaign) will trade items for Tainted Brain Matter, which sounds like the quickest and easiest way to get them, right?
Well, it's less easy than you may think, because he will only trade other rare crafting materials, which obviously also drop very infrequently. If you've been playing through areas heavy with chthonic enemies however, you may have extra Blood Of Ch'thon for trading.
What Is Tainted Brain Matter Used For In Grim Dawn?
In addition to completing the Tainted Brains faction bounty in Devil's Crossing, the main usage for Tainted Brain Matter is crafting legendary equipment and relics.
Note that you unlock the Relic From The Past achievement when first crafting an empowered relic (which will probably include Tainted Brain Matter, since that's the earliest rare crafting material to drop).
Have you found any other treasure chests or locations that seem to drop Tainted Brain Matter more frequently? Let us know in the comments!
Although critics have so far been divided on the recently-released World War Z game, fans have flocked to the title in droves. Just one week after launch, and World War Z has already sold 1 million units across all platforms, including PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
Speaking of the milestone in a press release, Saber Interactive CEO Matthew Karch said that the company was thankful for the reception fans have given World War Z. He added that the Epic Games Store played a role in the achievement.
We are humbled and thrilled by the immense success so far of World War Z, especially on PC thanks to the tremendous support of the Epic Games Store.
Karch continued by telling us that World War Z is the company's fastest-selling game, and that the company expects even bigger milestones to be reached in the near future.
We didn’t have week one numbers on the Master Chief Collection or Combat Evolved Anniversary but other than that, this is definitely our fastest selling game. It isn’t our bestselling one yet but we expect it will be by the end of the quarter.
In February, Saber Interactive confirmed that World War Z would join The Division 2 and Metro Exodus as Epic Games Store exclusives. While some gamers lamented the move as an increasing trend of developers leaving Steam behind, the exclusivity deal between Epic Games and Saber Interactive doesn't seem to have hurt the game's sales on PC.
Attached to the sales announcement was mention of further updates to the co-op zombie shooter. While Karch wasn't terribly specific about what's to come for World War Z, he did say that future patches and updates would focus on "content" and "improvements" for both the game's PvE and PvEvP modes.
Moving forward, we’ll continue to expand the game and its community with new improvements, stability updates, and bonus gameplay content, beginning very soon with a special new mission for the Tokyo episode.
In our review of World War Z, we said that while the game can be "quite entertaining with all its large-scale glory, good graphics, and abundance of classes", we also acknowledged that it could get repetitive because of its lack of content, among a few other small hiccups.
World War Z is currently available for PC for $34.99 on the Epic Games Store. It is also available on the PS4 and Xbox One for $39.99.
For those just playing the game, we have a handful of tips and tricks available over on our World War Z guides page, including which classes are best for PvE and PvEvP, and what builds are worth focusing on.

A socialist mother in East Berlin goes into a coma. When she comes out of the coma, everything has changed because the Berlin wall has come down. Her son (Daniel Brühl) creates a scheme to keep the reunification of Germany a secret until she gets better.
A dramatization of the real life story of 5 missionaries and their families who head to the jungles of Equador to reach out to a very violent tribe, the Waodani.
I watched "End of the Spear" with my husband (he heard Elizabeth Elliott--Jim's wife--speak in the late 1980's when they were raising money to go back) and my friend when it was in the theaters. Low-budget or not, I thought it was well-done. A very sad but touching story.
I watched this recently and loved the way it turned everything upside down to shine some light into the cracks. Beautiful and subversive.
End of the Spear caused a mini controversey with the casting of Allen, an openly gay activist in a film that is about conservative Christian missionaries. I haven't seen the film but understand it's ptretty good.
Albert Mohler (president of Southern Baptist Seminary) wrote on his own blog some comments regarding this issue back in January. I think they are very good thoughts and wanted to post a link to share with you.
Super excited about buying Goodbye Lenin! Thanks for the recommend RC!
I've wanted to see BOTH of these movies for some time now, especially Goodbye Lenin, which I can't find ANYWHERE around here to rent. Posts like this convince me more and more that we're going to have do the Netflix thing.
Actually, on February 3rd I weighed in on the topic. You may disagree.
Goodbye, Lenin! was a great movie. Made my top 10 for that year.
Dude, you picked 2 great films. I loved goodbye lenin, it is so subtle, but I still found myself laughing. The end of the spear was a suprise for me. I loved it.

Finance Costs > How Much Does Coinstar Cost?
How Much Does Coinstar Cost?
A Coinstar machine can be used to count your spare change. With almost 20,000 Coinstar centers in the country, a Coinstar machine can easily be found in supermarkets and drugstores such as Walmart, Publix, Kroger or Meijer.
According to the official site of Coinstar, there “isn’t always” a fee for using the machine. The processing fees vary on location. In the United States, 11.9% of the total amount will be charged. So that’s $9.80 for every $100 you cash in.
In Canada, an 11.9% processing fee is charged while 8.9% processing fee is charged in the United Kingdom.
It is also stated on the official site of Coinstar that select regions in the US offer free coin counting if you convert your change to a nationally-branded gift card or eCertificate. This is a result of some retailers and financial institutions subsidizing the fee needed for the transaction. At the time of this writing, some retailers include Amazon.com, AMC Theaters, Applebee’s, Best Buy, Nike, GameStop, Lowe’s and more. To qualify, however, there will be a minimum and maximum amount, which usually starts at $5 and caps out at $500. This will depend on the retailer.
The most popular service that a Coinstar machine offers is simply turning change into cash. While you pour your change into the machine, it will count your total and no preparation work is done on your part. Once finished, a receipt will be printed out, and you can take this receipt to the cashier or customer service representative to cash it in. You can also use the receipt like a coupon while shopping at the store, and the amount will be taken off your total. This receipt must be used in the same store as the Coinstar machine.
Aside from changing coins to cash, a Coinstar machine can make donations to many different charities. More than just being a money-changing machine, it is an avenue to support the charity of your preference. In addition, the Coinstar company partners with many of the brands people love. With this option, customers can convert coins into a card or eCertificate with no fee, getting the full value for the coins at hand.
There are several Coinstar machines all over the country. If you want to look for one located in your area, you can just visit the official site of Coinstar and check out the list of Coinstar machines spread all over the country.
According to Moneyistheroot.com, Coinstar has a kiosk within 5 miles of 95% of the U.S. population.
The reported largest coin exchange on record was $13,084.59. The said number is even bigger than the annual revenue of some big clothing companies in the country.
Coinstar exchanges $3 billion in coins every year.
Coinstar has special offers that can help you actually get more for your coins. If you are looking forward to saving money, you can take advantage of these promos that Coinstar constantly offers. Not to mention that exclusive offers are always available for official members. Thus, you can avail of free membership in order to fully enjoy the exclusive offers.
Remember, try to get a gift card rather than cash back. This can save you up to 10%.
Instead of using a Coinstar machine, consider rolling your own change. While it may be time-consuming, you can separate the coins, roll them in the specified amounts, and turn them into your bank for cash.
There are some banks that have a coin counting machine that its members can use for free. TD Bank, for example, offers this option for its customers. Check with your bank to see if they or another branch in the area has a coin counting machine.

Are you aware, as a high school student, that the Government can change your daily routine from waking up early to starting school later than you already do? They can change it completely in a way that you did not know they could.
In a few years, the Government will have a bill pass that will affect your normal routine. A bill is like a new law that we have to follow. This bill will affect students in middle schools and high schools in Californi. It states that the school starting time will begin after 8:30 AM which is later in order for students to get a healthier sleep. Let me walk you through what high school students think about this new bill.
First off, The California Legislative Information.gov website explains that “This bill would require the school day for both middle schools and high schools, including those who operate as charter schools, to begin no earlier than 8:30 a.m. by July 1, 2021″. Meaning at the beginning of 2021, all middle and high schools won’t begin earlier than 8:30 a.m. But what do students think of this change?
To conclude, it is important to stay up with the current government changes, policies, and bills. Even though we are not old enough to vote, it is beneficial to educate ourselves with the upcoming changes as they may affect us. It is clear that there are different views and opinions about this future bill, and although there is currently not enough information or exposure to this bill it is still going to happen, so those who like it will be thrilled, but those who don’t can hopefully adjust.

Our detailed analyses of the Citi ThankYou Premier and Chase Sapphire cards helps you make the choice by two of the top mid-tier travel cards.
Enter two of the best mid-tier travel credit cards right now: the Citi Premier Card and the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card. Both are tremendously valuable for the average traveler – someone who flies often, but not in excess. In other words: If you’re staying in a hotel every week, neither of these cards is the one you’re looking for.
On the other hand, if you’re traveling as frequently as once a month or as infrequently as just a few times a year, both of these cards are right in your wheelhouse. Utilize their bonus spending categories, take advantage of their perks, and use their shopping portals; you’ll soon find that travel has grown on you.
Earning 3X points in any category is atypical for a mid-tier rewards card, so Citi wins big by offering it on travel. The fact that Citi is including gas station purchases in the travel category is another winning feature. Most cards, regardless of their annual fee, do not lump gas and travel together.
As is the case with most other transferable currencies, the value of ThankYou Points fluctuates. Note that Citi incentivizes the redemption of points for airfare through its ThankYou Travel Center by bumping up their value to 1.25 cents apiece – for other redemptions, they’re worth 1 cent. You can also transfer points to any of Citi’s partners; among them are 15 airlines, only one of which (JetBlue) is based in the US. The value of transferred points is contingent on the airline’s rewards program.
Now we ask again: Who is this card for? It offers 3X points on gas, which is indicative of a card made for families. However, its transfer partners are almost completely based outside of the US, which means it’s a fit for world travelers. It also carries a manageable $95 annual fee, which means it’s a wise choice for someone new to travel cards. The simple answer: It’s for a great many people.
The Sapphire Preferred doesn’t offer a bonus on gas like the Citi Premier, but it does offer a 25 percent value boost when you redeem points through Chase Ultimate Rewards for travel. So, effectively, points are worth 1.25 cents apiece if you use them with Chase. The kicker here is that the value boost counts on any travel bookings made – airfare, hotels, rental cars and cruises included. Citi only boosts value on airfare, but Chase boosts it on all travel.
Like Citi, Chase has travel partners whose reward programs you can transfer your rewards points to. This is where Chase has a clear advantage – they partner with nine airlines, three of which are US-based (Southwest, United, JetBlue) and all of which are members of airline alliances. This means that although you can’t directly transfer Chase points to American Airlines, you can transfer them from Chase to British Airways to American. Chase also has hotel partners (World of Hyatt, Marriott Rewards, Ritz Carlton Rewards, IHG Rewards Club).
In summary, the Citi Premier Card has the potential to earn more points, but the Chase Sapphire Preferred enables you to redeem the points you in earn in more ways.
One of the greatest benefits of the Chase Sapphire Preferred is that its 25 percent value boost to travel redemptions can essentially be applied to every other Chase card you have. Chase allows you to move points between cards.
If you happen to have the Chase Freedom Card (which earns 5 percent cash back on rotating quarterly categories on up to $1,500 in spend), you can slide your Freedom points into your Sapphire Preferred account. Once points have been moved to your Sapphire Preferred account, they are eligible for the 25 percent bonus. This means that instead of using your Freedom Card to earn 5 percent back on bonus categories, you can effectively earn 6.25X points on bonus categories!
The same method can be applied to purchases made with the Freedom Unlimited or any of the Chase Ink Business cards. For this reason, it makes complete sense for card-jugglers to go with the Sapphire Preferred, but only if your goal is to travel.
Citi’s broad bonus categories make it easy to earn lots of points in lots of ways. 3X on travel includes gas, airfare, hotels, parking and more. 2X on dining and entertainment includes all the typical dining charges you’d expect to get rewarded for plus things like concerts, sporting events, trips to the zoo and even on-demand internet streaming media. This is not a comprehensive list either; Citi really does give you every opportunity to earn bonus points on category spending.
Since it’s so easy to earn bonus points, the Citi Premier Card is a fantastic bet for people who’d like to simplify their credit card strategy without sacrificing rewards. For this reason, the Citi Premier Card is a better bet for folks who want a true go-to card.
Since it offers an elevated (3X points) bonus on gas, this is also a great card for families. Considering the many other bonus categories, all that’s really left for families to earn bonus points on is groceries. Carry the Citi Premier Card and use it for everything except groceries; put that spending on a card with high earning on grocery store purchases.
Both cards are popular for a reason. They both offer great rewards and a bunch of perks without asking too much in the form of an annual fee. Consider your own financial outlook before choosing one, but remember that each card offers a big upside to most people.
