It’s that time of year where developers and publishers push themselves to breaking point in order to meet the all-important Christmas shopping release window. Frankly, it’s a pattern that crippled many of last year’s biggest games.
We’d love to think that lessons have been learned, but with another dementedly-packed season lying just ahead, it’s not hard to predict that some of the year’s biggest remaining games are going to have some serious issues at launch. They’re all games we can’t wait to play, but we’d certainly advise waiting for the reviews, or maybe holding out until those unchecked issues have been fixed post-launch. Games are expensive, so preorder wisely. Continue reading Expect trouble at launch for these remaining 2015 games

For example, the higher your perception skill, the better your VATS accuracy will work again all those ‘post-nuclear nuisances’. Stealing and other forms of sneakery will also benefit. Continue reading Perception stat explained in Fallout 4 trailer
Season Passes have become the scourge of games in recent years. We’re not opposed to additional content for games, far from it. But when the cost of a Season Pass matches that of a full game, our alarm bells start to ring. What’s worse, so many of these passes offer a paltry amount of content that simply doesn’t justify the price.
Consider that Season Passes often stick to their high price long after the main game can be bought for a fraction of the original cost a few months after release and the farce becomes even more laughable. Continue reading Are Fallout 4 and Witcher III a turning point for Season Passes?

Gavin Newsom has come eye to eye with God, and God isn’t blinking. Nor is He amused. Welcome to the West Coast, Messed Coast(TM) update, and this week we lead off with a pastoral letter to the big shot governor of California in response to him mocking scripture on his disgusting pro-abortion billboards across the country.
King Herod of California
Newsom declared on the billboards that California is a sanctuary state for women seeking abortions — quoting Jesus as somehow endorsing such a horrific notion.
Pastor John McArthur of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley said he was concerned for the “jeopardy of his eternal soul” after Newsom “crossed the line” by mocking Jesus’s own words in support of killing babies.
McArthur followed up on a message from the pulpit Sunday with a letter to the governor, calling on him to repent for his offensive mockery of God’s word. In his message, the well-respected Christian leader criticized the governor for assuming the role of “a present day Herod” by calling for killing children. As you may recall, King Herod put out an order to kill all children under two to make sure he snuffed out Jesus.
McArthur wrote, “You further compounded the wickedness of that murderous campaign with a reprehensible act of gross blasphemy, quoting the very words of Jesus from Mark 12:31 as if you could somehow twist His meaning and arrogate His name in favor of butchering unborn infants.” And it got more serious: “You used the name and the words of Christ to promote the credo of Molech (Leviticus 20:1-5). It would be hard to imagine a greater sacrilege,” McArthur said in the two-page letter.
“[Y]ou chose words from the lips of Jesus without admitting that in the same moment He gave the greatest commandment: ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength’ (Mark 12:30). You cannot love God as He commands while aiding in the murder of His image-bearers,” wrote McArthur in his letter.
Well, somebody had to tell Newsom. He’s certainly not going to hear from his fellow Catholic, Aunt Nancy Pelosi.
The Librarian Will See You Now
At long last, Seattle officials admit that things are so out of control on the streets of what used to be called The Emerald City that “houseless” individuals are going to the library to take drugs in the bathrooms and stacks.
To the rescue are those city leaders who have decided that Librarians in the Seattle Public libraries will be trained on a volunteer basis to administer Narcan to druggies who overdose while watching their porn and dealing drugs. Since no one at this point will be required to give it, it’s unclear if foggy-headed tweakers will be able to sort out which library to go to, so look for a mandate soon. After all, Democrats love open borders with unlimited Fentanyl coming to kill your children.
This brings us to this frightening warning:
“They are disguising fentanyl as candy. Have Narcan on hand for your children this Halloween.” (Emphasis added.)
Whatever Happened to Inflation?
Joe Biden said he’s fixing high gas prices.
Speaking of Joe Biden’s inflationary high gas prices, it turns out that the big, fat checks California’s governor plans to give out to fight inflation are actually going to create more inflation — not just for California (which you knew) but for other parts of the country, too!
“These inflation relief payments will export inflation to the rest of the United States — with some showing up in California too,” Harvard professor Jason Furman wrote. “That’s because Californians’ stimulus spending won’t be confined to the state’s borders. The money will flow to the other 49 states — pushing up prices for Americans that don’t have government checks to help them keep up.”
And there’s your West Coast, Messed Coast(TM) report. Until next time, stock up on Narcan and those “inflation” checks. | <urn:uuid:ff748668-666e-4f5f-8d81-4d6fae132934> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | https://retiredpatriotnews.com/2022/10/01/west-coast-messed-coasttm-gavin-newsoms-moral-reckoning/ | 2022-12-06T11:38:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446711077.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20221206092907-20221206122907-00139.warc.gz | en | 0.944133 | 907 |

When it comes to weddings today, there are many themes for people to pick from. And people do go for a wide variety of choices starting from underwater themes to the simplest of wedding themes one of which is the country club décor. There are many creative farmhouse decoration ideas that you can work your way through to come up with a nice décor theme for your wedding. On the other hand, you could always look at rustic decorating ideas for the home and extrapolate them to fit a wedding venue.
The thing is decorations and décor themes for weddings are a big part of the ambience of the function. People tend to notice these things alongside the food and music. That is why you need not really set limits on the decoration elements that you use. You can even pick some elements off ideas about how to decorate your penthouse, if you feel this will work.
Here Are Some Simple And Very Effective Country Club Décor Elements For Weddings That You Will Find Very Effective:
It creates a grand but warm feeling: The thing is weddings are a time when families and friends from both the sides get together to celebrate the occasion. It only makes sense to create a charming and warm feeling alongside grandeur, which can make the wedding come together in a right way. People tend to be jollier and more receptive when they have a feeling of warmth rather than something that seems to finicky.
This décor theme can be economical: Weddings are costly affairs though many people consider it in bad taste to mention this. However, the cost factor does remain a big moving force in the wedding scenario. One of the advantages of the country club décor for weddings is that you can take some steps to ensure that this cost remains under control without compromising on the aesthetics or comfort.
It makes for a good photo op: Many people who attend the wedding are talking about how picturesque and pretty it was and tend to look forward to the pictures that are taken of the wedding. That is why many brides, grooms, and the wedding planners tend to focus on ensuring that the wedding venue is pretty. In addition, this is an advantage of country clubs, which by their very nature are very pretty with lots of interesting angles, good sources of lighting and natural vistas. All these elements ensure that there are plenty of good photo opportunities for the wedding party to get pictures clicked.
A mix of outside and inside venues: The country club venue for weddings has another major advantage. This advantage is that there are both interior and exterior elements and these ensure that the wedding party can enjoy both. For instance, some portion of the wedding can be outside like the actual wedding vows while parts of the wedding like the dinner and dancing, this can be held indoors.
While we are talking here about actual country clubs as venues for weddings, this need not always be the case. You can actually pick key elements from the country club theme to use in weddings no matter what the venue is. It will almost as if you are cutting a slice of the country club and putting it in an urban setting. This sort of theme can cost a bit in terms of money and effort but the end results will be charming. Do look at the pictures to get an idea about the kind of décor we are talking about to plan your own wedding. | <urn:uuid:3626a373-9e76-440a-b3db-b865cca9c2cb> | CC-MAIN-2020-05 | http://www.boredart.com/2015/10/country-club-decor-for-weddings.html | 2020-01-23T01:35:43Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-05/segments/1579250608062.57/warc/CC-MAIN-20200123011418-20200123040418-00502.warc.gz | en | 0.938544 | 676 |
Serving crepes on Christmas morn
The TimesPublished: Tuesday, December 03, 2013
Miranda Tymoschuk is a Grade 12 student at Thomas Haney Secondary, who is planning her third trip to Africa to help with charity work through the organization Free the Children.
Leading up to the holiday season, she has held a number of bake sales at Haney Place Mall. Given her prowess at baking, The TIMES invited her to share one of her favourite holiday recipes: "This is a really special holiday recipe to my family. I love to bake but I'm definitely not as skilled as my mom when it comes to making crepes, haha," she wrote.
"Every Christmas, my mom makes these crepes no matter what. She triples the recipe and freeze them to be enjoyed for breakfast on Christmas morning (and as leftovers for a few days after Christmas)," Miranda recounted.
"This recipe is a pretty simple one to mix together, but gives everyone the chance to be creative or enjoy it however they like! "One of the things we always do is roll the crepes up with heated blueberries, whipped cream, and brown sugar. It is so delicious! I also enjoy them with a combination of butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon or even just peanut butter and brown sugar," she said.
"This is our fun tradition that makes our breakfast together on Christmas so special."
Tymoschuk Christmas Crepes Ingredients: 4 eggs 1 cup of milk 1 cup of water 2 cups of flour 1 tsp of sugar 1/4 tsp of salt Directions:
Beat the eggs in a large bowl and then add the rest of the ingredients. Beat smooth.
Cover and store in the fridge for a few hours, and add milk before cooking if too thick.
Pour 2 Tbsp of batter into a greased hot pan and swirl all over the bottom. Remove when the underside is lightly browned.
Makes 24 crepes. | <urn:uuid:8e366939-ddd6-4473-b574-96f80acbc02d> | CC-MAIN-2014-42 | http://www2.canada.com/life/chat-central/serving+crepes+christmas+morn/9239644/story.html?id=9239644 | 2014-10-23T20:01:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-42/segments/1413558067496.61/warc/CC-MAIN-20141017150107-00316-ip-10-16-133-185.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.961649 | 402 |
Myndbend Process Manager, by default, requires all approvers to approve before a ticket can be solved. You have the option in settings to allow "partial approval" where only one of the approvers is required to approve before the ticket can be solved. With "partial approval" enabled, the app will ignore any outstanding approvals as long as one of the approvers has approved.
Myndbend Premium accounts have the ability to require a specified number of approvals on a ticket. If the required number of approvals are collected, the remaining approvers will be "skipped" and no longer required to approve.
Steps to require a specified number of approvals:
- Ensure the trigger "MPM Processing" is active (Zendesk Admin Center > Objects and rules > Triggers). This trigger was installed automatically ("Quick Setup" procedure) when the Myndbend Process Manager app was set up for the first time. If you do not see this trigger active in your account, please contact support.
- To set the required number of approvals, you'll need to place a tag "required_approvals_N" (with N a number) on the ticket either by a trigger, by the ticket template, or manually.
For example, "required_approvals_3" may be set as one of the tags in the Myndbend ticket template. Every child ticket created from this template will have this tag. When a ticket is updated and the tag is present, the Myndbend Process Manager will restrict the ticket from getting solved until the correct number of approvers have approved or all ticket approvers have approved — even if added approvers are less than N in the required_approvals_N tag. When the correct number of approvers have approved, the remaining approvers will be marked as "skipped" and the ticket can be solved.
If an approver is requested or an approval request is resent to the approver after the minimum number of approvals have been met, that approver will immediately be skipped. To avoid the approver skipping, you will need to remove the "required_approvals_N" tag from the ticket. | <urn:uuid:19d1d473-d325-433d-925c-d72e1dfd10da> | CC-MAIN-2023-50 | https://support.myndbend.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000376146-How-to-require-a-minimum-number-of-approvals?ref=myndbend.com | 2023-12-05T14:46:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-50/segments/1700679100551.2/warc/CC-MAIN-20231205140836-20231205170836-00027.warc.gz | en | 0.915268 | 447 |
Addiction comes about as a result of becoming over dependent on a substance. The type of dependence can be mental or physical. Once a person becomes an addict, the chemistry in the brain is altered and this prevents the body from functioning normally.
Some of the many substances that people can get addicted to include drugs, alcohol, and prescription medication. Addiction normally grows over a period of time with repeated use of the particular substance. The good news is that an addict can, however, manage to get over addiction and attain full recovery. However, addiction and recovery are not issues that can be taken lightly.
There are some people who are addicts without being aware of it yet. Some may simply not identify their dependence on a substance. This is what happens commonly with people who are addicted to medications such as pain killers. There are also people who are addicted to recreational drugs but they simply don’t consider it to be a problem. | <urn:uuid:1fa6ff79-455c-4170-89c6-1c2405eaa776> | CC-MAIN-2018-51 | http://addictionandrecovery.net/ | 2018-12-16T12:18:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-51/segments/1544376827727.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20181216121406-20181216143406-00434.warc.gz | en | 0.968971 | 187 |
“One of the best ways to distribute information is to get it picked up by the media and newsletters that Congressional staffers are reading every day” — Senior Staff, Senate
In response to the current global health crisis, many organizations in the private sector have taken actions to support their employees, their customers, their local communities, and to assist the US healthcare system in treating or beating COVID-19. In one of the busiest times for policymakers, and against the backdrop of a crowded communications environment in DC, many organizations have begun proactively sharing positive stories of how their organizations have responded.
Ballast combined its 7+ years of qualitative interviews and surveys among senior policymakers with an analysis of 262 editions of Axios and POLITICO newsletters over eight weeks, including 706 unique advertising slots.
Overview of the Report
In the noisy DC communications environment, one of the keys to ensuring appropriate recognition for organizations’ efforts around COVID-19 is that they take an active approach to sharing their positive work.
Paid media plays a crucial role in the age of social distancing to ensure a broad cross-section of policymakers are able to see and hear about the work your organization has done. Ballast’s analysis focused on the following areas:
- How and when ad copy shifted from standard messages to COVID-19 specific
- The themes of COVID-specific advertising
- Which topics organizations chose to highlight most often

A General Introduction to New Practical Chinese Reader
《新实用汉语课本》简介 刘珣 主编
Editor-in-Chief : Liu Xun
New Practical Chinese Reader is a set of comprehensive Chinese language textbooks compiled for the purpose of teaching Chinese to adult non-native Chinese speakers without previous Chinese learning experience.
The teaching concepts New Practical Chinese Reader upholds are taking language structure as the guideline and combining the teaching of language structure with the teachings of language functions and culture. By placing the focus of study on language structure and functional, cultural knowledge, as well as skills training for listening, speaking, reading and writing, New Practical Chinese Reader aims to foster learners’ ability to communicate in the Chinese language.
It emphasizes the instructions of functional items and covers a wide range of topics. The book is divided into units, making it easy for users to differentiate the core content from the supplementary one and choose the content based on their needs.
Since New Practical Chinese Reader was published in 2002, it has been well received by learners and teachers of Chinese around the world and aroused a lot of concern among them. With its total circulation hitting 1 million copies and its copyright imported to other countries, New Practical Chinese Reader has become one of the most popular basic Chinese teaching resources that are used by world renowneduniversities, such as Harvard University, Stanford University and University of California Berkeley in theUnited States, Toronto University in Canada, Oxford University, Cambridge University and University of London in British, University of Berlin in Germany, University of Melbourne in Australia and Waseda University in Japan.
Its simplified Chinese version and traditional Chinese version with English annotation have been published so far besides its simplified Chinese version with Thai, Russian and Spanish annotations. The books (with CD and CD-ROM) were also annotated in 9 languages in 2009 as a set of comprehensive teaching materials for beginners in cooperation with the Chinese language popularization program launched by Hanban. In addition, the 2nd edition of its simplified Chinese version annotated in English was published in 2010. We haven’t revised the framework, but presented the updated materials in combination with how it was used in the classrooms of foreign countries. The language used is still practical and reality-based so as to foster students’ cross-culture communication skills.

Angus here - heading out the door for the weekend - just saw the Fehr to Winnipeg trade. Great move for Fehr - as I speculated yesterday, this gives him value and clears the logjam on RW in Washington. The Jets sent a 4th round pick to Washington.
Fehr will likely play on line two with Kane and Burmistrov at center (Ladd-Little-Wheeler on line one). Fehr is a Manitoba boy who is probably very excited at the prospects of returning to his home province to play.
James Mirtle's thoughts from Toronto's prospect camp - he likes Gardiner and Jesse Blacker a lot.
GREAT work by David Poile to get Sergei Kostitsyn signed before arbitration. One year, $2.5 million. To figure out Nashville's lines, through 12 names in a hat, shake, and remove three at a time.
This could (and probably will) be spun into a full column, but I wanted to touch on secondary fantasy value for a bit. Often times players sign with a team that possess little-to-no direct fantasy value - perhaps they are known for defensive play, energy, intangibles, leadership, etc.
Often times, however, these players do end up having a significant fantasy impact on their team. Some examples - Willie Mitchell and Rob Scuderi in LA (better ES play from Doughty and Johnson, better goaltending from Quick and Bernier), Zbynek Michalek in Pittsburgh (improved numbers from MA Fleury), and so on.
I think Roman Hamrlik is going to have a a big impact in Washington - he's a veteran who has been known in the past to really help develop young defensemen - Green (yes, he is still developing), Alzner, and Carlson all fit the bill. Both of Washington's goaltenders are Czech (like Hamrlik), and a level of comfort and familiarity won't hurt.
I'm not saying to draft Hamrlik (although he has value in deeper leagues). But don't discount signings just because the player isn't terribly fantasy relevant himself.
The Sharks have re-signed Benn Ferriero to a one-year, one-way contract (thanks to CapGeek, an invaluable resource these days). Ferriero will likely slot in on the third line, but he could play on line two if the Sharks don't want Pavelski on the right side.
I don't see where else Pavelski can play side from L2 RW, as I don't think the Sharks paid Michal Handzus $2.5 million to center the fourth line. Pavelski's offensive abilities were a bit wasted on the third line during the playoffs, when he skated with Kyle Wellwood and Torrey Mitchell.
How would you rank Florida's wingers in terms of one-year fantasy value (standard categories)? Booth, Fleischmann, Versteeg, Upshall, etc? How about the centers, after Weiss? I assume Santorelli will center line two, and Matthias will be on line three. What do you think?
Tampa Bay signed Ryan Shannon to a one-year deal. Assuming the lines remain the same he could slide in with Adam Hall and Dominic Moore on line three at even strength, and on one of the power play units when he is productive.
The Kings sure have a nice looking roster heading in to 2011-12. Rich Hammond breaks down the depth chart here.
Kent Wilson wrote a great piece on the decline of Dany Heatley. I wouldn’t click on this link if I were a Minnesota Wild fan.
I use the HockeyPoolGeek tools a ton for all of my leagues. Check this thread out – a great Q and A with the lead programmer of the site, and some nice additions appear to be on the way. It sure is nice to have a tangible number of exactly what category/player you need to go after at the draft or through summer trades.
The Flyers have signed Wayne Simmonds to a very cap friendly two year extension worth $1.75 million per season. Simmonds will likely slot in on the third line, but he has top six upside. Big, strong, not afraid to mix it up, and he’s got great hands and a nice shot as well.
Nashville signed three of the four RFAs involved in the contract issue, and David Poile did a great job getting them at cap friendly terms.
Matt Halischuk – two years at $1.4 total (thanks Brendan), Cal O’Reilly one year at $1.1 million, and Nick Spaling at $1.05 million per for two years.
Sergei Kostitsyn still remains unsigned, and could become a UFA if the mediator rules in his favor. What does that mean for his fantasy value? Tough to say. Last year could be a one off, or it could be a sign of things to come. The Preds would have no issue walking away from him if he demands too much money, especially with the signing of Niclas Bergfors.
A solid breakdown of the depth signings each NHL club has made to date.

Photographs on photographic paper, light boxes, metal frames, and Plexiglas—Anne Pharel creates objects from photographs and plays with different media to address a central theme, time and flow - the recurring problem at the heart of her artistic approach.
Capturing fleeting moments contained by their own, finite nature to give them a new, longer, stretched temporality, the artist questions the porous boundary between past and future, before and after, dream and reality, and appearance and disappearance.
Anne Pharel invites us to the heart of nature during her nocturnal wanderings: roots, leaves, streams, and trunks punctuate these suspended moments. Here, the erosion of time has left its mark on the crumbled walls and the light of dawn echoes that of twilight, with the photographer’s characteristic diffusion continually evoking the transience of the moment. The light box crystallizes eternity to the point that time stands still, frozen on its foundation. By transfiguring the real, Anne Pharel reveals a hidden side to the elements that defies perception.
The exhibition will feature forty unique works from Pharel’s various series: Sub Noctem, Panning for Gold, Elusiveness and Derivatives, Interior Gardens.
Three of Pharel’s works have become part of the collection of the National Library of France. | <urn:uuid:fcbdc54d-b96b-41ba-b111-a6f6533972d4> | CC-MAIN-2017-13 | http://www.galerie-photo12.com/EN/EVENT/l-intangible?EVT=6cabf4bb-6994-4d74-b32e-1f1115f732c5 | 2017-03-29T07:19:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-13/segments/1490218190234.0/warc/CC-MAIN-20170322212950-00311-ip-10-233-31-227.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.906994 | 296 |

About the Author
Noam Chomsky was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on December 7, 1928. He studied linguistics, mathematics, and philosophy at the University of Pennsylvania. In 1955, he received his Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania and began teaching at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he is Institute Professor Emeritus in the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy.
During the years 1951 to 1955, Chomsky was a Junior Fellow of the Harvard University Society of Fellows. While a Junior Fellow he completed his doctoral dissertation entitled, Transformational Analysis.” The major theoretical viewpoints of the dissertation appeared in the monograph Syntactic Structure, which was published in 1957 and is widely credited with having revolutionized the field of modern linguistics. This formed part of a more extensive work, The Logical Structure of Linguistic Theory, circulated in mimeograph in 1955. Most of a 1956 version was published in 1975.
In 1961, Chomsky was appointed full professor in the Department of Modern Languages and Linguistics (now the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy) at MIT. From 1966 to 1976 he held the Ferrari P. Ward Professorship of Modern Languages and Linguistics. In 1976 he was appointed Institute Professor, a position he held until 2002.
Chomsky is the author of numerous influential political works, including Failed States (Metropolitan Books), Hegemony or Survival: America’s Quest for Global Dominance (Metropolitan Books), 9/11 (Open Media Series/ Seven Stories Press), Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media with Ed Herman (Pantheon), Necessary Illusions (South End Press), Understanding Power (New Press), Interventions (Open Media Series/ City Lights), Hopes and Prospects (Haymarket) and many other titles.
In 1988, Chomsky received the Kyoto Prize in Basic Science, given to honor those who have contributed significantly to the scientific, cultural, and spiritual development of mankind.” The prize noted that Dr. Chomsky’s theoretical system remains an outstanding monument of 20th century science and thought. He can certainly be said to be one of the great academicians and scientists of this century.” | <urn:uuid:9989d883-4520-4d1c-a3fc-9b72f6c79ae6> | CC-MAIN-2015-06 | http://www.amazon.ca/Making-Future-Occupations-Interventions-Resistance/dp/0872865371 | 2015-01-25T22:28:16Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-06/segments/1422115891802.74/warc/CC-MAIN-20150124161131-00189-ip-10-180-212-252.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.943294 | 555 |

As an undergraduate theatre major, students will have multiple opportunities to perform. From the Centenary Stage Company, to Next Stage Repertory Company, to Children’s Theatre Tour, to the Dance Concert, to assisting and working with the Young Performers Workshop, students engage in the act of “creating theatre” on a multitude of levels.
7 Reasons To Study Theatre At Centenary University
http://centenarystageco.org/ By being associated with a professional theatre company, students have the opportunity to audition for, be cast in, and work on professional theatre productions while attending Centenary University. Students who perform in Centenary Stage company productions have the ability to earn EMC (Equity Membership Candidate) points while working toward their degree. They also have the chance to work alongside working professionals and build a network outside the college environment. Our proximity to New York City brings to the campus not only working actors, but professional designers, directors and theatre artists on an ongoing basis. By observing the work ethic of these individuals and developing a network, students get a step ahead outside of the college environment.
Perform with The Centenary Stage Company Touring Theatre Programs for Young Audiences! CSC’s Young Audience Series is dedicated to the mission of bringing live theatre experiences and hands-on workshops to young people, in order to help foster skills in creative problem solving, critical thinking, collaboration, empathy and communication—skills which create a capacity to innovate, and which are essential for succeeding in our modern world.
(Sitnick Theatre, The Little Theatre, Kutz Black Box). Having three different performance spaces creates more opportunities for students to perform. These performance spaces will also educate the performer in handling different sized spaces vocally, physically, and emotionally depending on the demands of the production they are in. Having large scale musicals as well as dramatic production in the state of the art large 487 seat Sitnick Theatre, to the 177 seat Little Theatre, to the 100 seat Multipurpose Black box space, will allow students multiple opportunities to hone their skills in these different environments
At Centenary University the thought process is learning by doing. With six concentrations in theatre (Performance Studies, Musical Theatre, Dance, Production Management, Technical Theatre, and Costume Design) a BA in Theatre at Centenary University will expose students to all aspects of the theatre world. The more tools a student has in their “tool box” will give a student more opportunities to be a working professional in the theatre. Teaching students as much as possible about all aspects in the theatre will teach the student to become a well rounded working theatre professional.
Although we have an association with the Centenary Stage Company, and much of the program is intense much like conservatory programs, Centenary University’s Theatre Program is not a BFA. This allows past graduates to double major, minor in other areas, study abroad, experience all aspects of what college has to offer. In having a BA students will be able to experience the rigors of a liberal arts education and explore the college community as a whole, not being shut out of other educational opportunities that present themselves along the way. In attending a small college, professors from other departments become involved, assist, and engage students to utilize all aspects of their educational experience
The centenary University Theatre Programs offers students the unique opportunity to study abroad through the University’s School of International Studies Program. Of particular interest to our theatre students is our connection with the University of Roehampton in London England and their Drama, Theatre and Performance Studies program. | <urn:uuid:bf7e7630-d249-48c1-8046-1ef01998cf26> | CC-MAIN-2021-31 | https://www.centenaryuniversity.edu/academics/undergraduate-studies/theatre-arts/top-seven-reasons/ | 2021-07-27T11:27:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-31/segments/1627046153391.5/warc/CC-MAIN-20210727103626-20210727133626-00227.warc.gz | en | 0.948377 | 727 |
UI's Brenner, Larsen, MacGillivray elected 2012 AAAS Fellows
Main Page Content
Three University of Iowa faculty members, two from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (CLAS) and one from the Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine, have been awarded the distinction of 2012 Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the world's largest general scientific society and publisher of the journal Science.
Charles Brenner, professor, Roy J. Carver Chair, and head of the Department of Biochemistry in the Carver College of Medicine, "for distinguished contributions to the field of NAD metabolism, particularly for identification of the eukaryotic nicotinamide riboside pathway and previously unknown steps in NAD biosynthesis.” Brenner, who received his doctorate from Stanford University School of Medicine in 1993, joined the UI faculty in 2009. His research involves identifying metabolic pathways that respond to changes in nutrient availability. Findings from Brenner's lab have profound implications in microbial systems, for dissecting the mechanism of action of niacin, and for development of nutritional approaches to metabolic diseases.
Leonard MacGillivray, professor in the CLAS Department of Chemistry, “for outstanding contributions to the fields of supramolecular solid-state chemistry and crystal engineering, particularly for discovery and characterization of novel organic reactions within crystals.” MacGillivray, who received his doctorate from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1998, joined the UI faculty in 2000. In addition to organic reactions in crystals, his research has included work on organic semiconductors, made from carbon-based materials, which can be used to make electronic “paper” and other flexible electronic materials.
Sarah Larsen, professor in the CLAS Department of Chemistry, "for distinguished contributions to the synthesis, characterization, and applications of microporous materials including nanocrystalline zeolites, and for excellence in chemical education and outreach." Larsen, who received her doctorate from Harvard University in 1992, joined the UI faculty in 1995. Her work includes studying zeolites—porous nanomaterials widely used in catalysis, adsorption and ion-exchange—that are being developed for applications in environmental catalysis, water purification, and drug delivery and fostering undergraduate research in nanoscience.
The three UI recipients are among 702 individuals elected this year by peers. AAAS members are elevated to the rank of "Fellow" because their efforts to advance science or its applications are deemed scientifically or socially distinguished.

It may not feel like it, but spring is right around the corner. I can tell you that all of these gray skies and chilly days are giving my dogs (and me) the blues. I've got the perfect solution! If you've never been to the City Bark dog park in New Orleans City Park, I promise you that it will only take one visit before you and your canine family members are hooked. Located on the corner of Zachary Taylor and Diagonal Drive, City Bark boasts a beautifully landscaped play area with hills for running, a sandy area for rolling around in, and assorted “tubs” to lounge. There’s also a separate area for small dogs, in case the little dogs get a little overwhelmed! When your dogs are finished playing, there is a convenient wash area where you can get your dog cleaned up and ready for the ride home. For the humans, there are sheltered picnic tables, restrooms, and soda machines. Lad is my little Sheltie mix. He’s all of 20 lbs and his nickname is 'Rocket Lad'. He’s super-fast and City Bark is his favorite place in the world! When I tell him we’re going, I have to step back and wait a few minutes as he gets so excited. He absolutely quivers with excitement and jumps straight up and down in the air, twisting his body around like a circus dog, for about 30 seconds. When he can compose himself and can sit for 5 seconds, I put his leash on him. (One more step closer to the dog park.)
Praline is my 13 year old Yellow Lab. She is slow moving, but when she hears we’re going to City Bark, well, let me say that is the fastest she moves these days! Her massive tail whacks everything in its way; usually that’s Lad. (Two steps closer to the dog park.) After piling into the car and pulling up to City Bark, Lad is shaking all over. He can hardly contain himself. The wait is over! As soon as we open the gates he is off and running, often with a pack of very large dogs three times his size running behind him. (They can’t ever catch him.) Praline stays within three feet of me, every now and then looking up at me as if to say, “Children.” After an hour of socializing and play, they both like to cool off in one of the City Bark tubs. One quick towel-dry and we’re back headed for home, where they snooze the afternoon away. City Bark is a perfect way to get your dogs out to have some fun, meet new friends, and get a lot of exercise! I hope you’ll come out and join the fun. An annual pass may be purchased at our Administration Building at 1 Palm Dr.

About a week into the frenzy of free agency, there seems to be a general feel of the unknown that comes with each signing and each trade. Many are asking themselves what exactly this means for the big picture of the league
Manti Te'o is not impressing at the NFL Combine, leading some experts to predict he might fall out of the first round in April's NFL Draft. He ran a 4.82 40-yard that caused John Harbaugh to shake his head. Add all the stress from having to answer questions from the media horde and it sure sounds like he could use a friendly ear...
The NFL Draft is ancient history now and if you didn’t hear your name called, then we have bad news for you — it’s back to your cubicle where your dream of being a star on the gridiron will remain just that.
The 2012 NFL Draft wrapped up Saturday night. While many pundits correctly predicted that quarterbacks Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III would go to Indianapolis and Washington at No.1 and No. 2, respectively, there were some surprises as the NFL Draft stretched into its late rounds.
We all know Andrew Luck will be the first pick of the draft, but, depending on your perspective, the very LAST pick of the draft -- or as he's dubbed, Mr. Irrelevant -- might have some luck of his own if this woman has her way.

Since upgrading to 3.2.0.Final, my client is not able to create clients in a realm it just created. This was working before with 3.1.0.Final and earlier versions as well.
I wrote a small program to demonstrate the problem.
Before running the program, you'll need to add the "testClient" to the master realm,
Access type: confidential
You will need to modify the code to change the CLIENT_SECRET constant to match your environment.
You'll also need to change the keycloak.version property in the pom.xml to match the version you're testing against.
When running with 3.2.0.Final, we get the following:
14:50:28,552 ERROR [org.jboss.resteasy.resteasy_jaxrs.i18n] (default task-48) RESTEASY002005: Failed executing POST /admin/realms/testRealm/clients: org.keycloak.services.ForbiddenException
With 3.1.0.Final, the "testClient" is created successfully in the new testRealm. | <urn:uuid:d82b32c9-1f75-47b5-96d0-66de26448f0c> | CC-MAIN-2017-39 | https://issues.jboss.org/browse/KEYCLOAK-5211 | 2017-09-23T09:24:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-39/segments/1505818689615.28/warc/CC-MAIN-20170923085617-20170923105617-00650.warc.gz | en | 0.712812 | 241 |

Shortly after Xbox officially unveiled the Xbox One X Scorpio Edition, PlayStation revealed a teasing image on twitter announcing that they too had something to unveil. Many were worried it would be another console, maybe even a true 4K machine, while others were anticipating an upgraded PSVR unit.
Today the account has revealed what they were teasing, a new 1TB Gran Turismo Sport bundle, releasing October 18, 2017.

Purchased some spare parts for our Sea Land VacuFlush system
End of October 2016 - Tied up in Marina Mazatlán, Mexico
Sea Land VacuFlush 385310954 ball-shaft-kit with spring cartridge.
The round part with the black face has a spring in it. We had a spare kit but the spring broke on our installed part so we used the spare from the kit. We cannot buy just the spring part but an extra kit is always worth having. Next summer we will get a spare motor and some other parts that rarely break but if they do then oh boy. Not enough extra $$ this summer for those parts. This year the waste system has not been used for the last six months. So no wear-tear on the system. We are missing home though and want to be putting some wear on the system :) | <urn:uuid:6d1b4fc3-25d7-4b2d-a2b1-6b403d202618> | CC-MAIN-2018-13 | http://elegantsea.blogspot.com/2016/10/purchased-some-spear-parts-for-our-sea.html | 2018-03-18T03:48:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-13/segments/1521257645513.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20180318032649-20180318052649-00527.warc.gz | en | 0.9465 | 178 |
Let's play mini-Sudoku!
We wish to place an "X" in four cells, such that there is exactly one "X" in each row, column, and 2x2 outlined box.
In how many ways can we do this?
(Terminology: A cell is one of small 1x1 spaces. A box is one of four outlined 2x2 group of cells.)
This was answered a while back, but the answer ends up being 16
4 ways to place the X in the top row
2 ways to place the X in the second row [ in the other 2 x 2 box not occupied by the first X ]
2 ways to place the X in the third row [ we can choose either of the two empty columns]
Only 1 way to place the last X in the last empty column
So ....4 x 2 x 2 x 1 = 16 | <urn:uuid:08847f1b-f62e-4272-a8ab-ab3c8e9a628e> | CC-MAIN-2019-22 | https://web2.0calc.com/questions/let-s-play-mini-sudoku_1 | 2019-05-25T08:23:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-22/segments/1558232257920.67/warc/CC-MAIN-20190525064654-20190525090654-00411.warc.gz | en | 0.934366 | 184 |

With Canon set to launch an SED TV by year end, some are wondering whether SED will displace plasma displays in the Japanese market.
Could surface-conduction electron-emitter displays (SEDs) displace plasma screens in the Japanese market? That's the question that I had floating around my head after hearing a presentation on the state of technology in Japan made by Digital TV DesignLine partner EE Times Japan.
In the presentation, EE Times Japan publisher Masaya Ishida claimed that LCD TV makers shipped more than 2 million units in the first half of 2005, which plasma developers only shipped 184,000 units. He followed that by saying that Canon is set to have its first SEDs out by the end of the year.
The question is will these SEDs wipe plasma out of the market? Ishida leaned toward SEDs displacing plasma displays. But, for others, as pointed out in a story by EE Times reporter Yoshiko Hara in a recent story, one of the big challenges for SED displays is whether they can compete at the price level in a time when the cost of plasma screens are dropping dramatically.
It's probably too early to know whether SED TVs will or will not displace plasma TVs in the Japanese market. But, what is clear is that SEDs are on the way and that they do pose a threat. In the interim, if you want a short overview of what an SED is and how it works, click here. Also, let us know your thoughts on SED in site editor Dennis Barker's SED forum. | <urn:uuid:0895596e-f547-41c0-8857-c4f6584769d0> | CC-MAIN-2017-09 | http://www.eetimes.com/author.asp?section_id=36&doc_id=1281958 | 2017-02-19T16:06:33Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-09/segments/1487501169776.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20170219104609-00428-ip-10-171-10-108.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.93723 | 326 |

Pesky homeless people cluttering up the parks around the World Equestrian Games venue in Lexington, Kentucky, are going to be moved for the duration of the event.
Phoenix Park is the most popular place for the homeless to sleep, particularly during winter, but they’re getting a short, sharp, shrift, because the Official Food and Beverage suppliers intend to peddle their wares there during the Spotlight Lexington festival. There will be live entertainment, and the homeless folks aren’t going to be part of the show.
The Games start on Saturday, September 25, and two temporary shelters are opening on Wednesday, September 22. The Games end on October 10, and the shelters close then, too.
Felicity can see it now. Officials in their Official Luxury Automobiles (Land Rover), covered in Official Disinfectant (Anivac), tempting the homeless into the new shelters with, perhaps, Official Bourbon (Maker’s Mark).
But as Lexington Police spokeswoman Sherelle Roberts says, homeless people won’t be rounded up and arrested or harassed by police during the Games, and parks are public places. “People are allowed there. The homeless will not be treated any differently during Spotlight Lexington.”
Levity aside, yet another thing WEG has brought to light in Lexington is the need for “something to be done” about the homeless, according to Jessica Geis, vice president of Downtown Lexington Corporation, a city promotion group.
Felicity wonders just how many of these homeless people – said to be up to 130 individuals – were once part of the equestrian or racing jet set. | <urn:uuid:cf098d60-0ffa-47a4-9794-dffb948e442c> | CC-MAIN-2020-45 | https://www.horsetalk.co.nz/2010/09/20/new-stables-for-homeless-people/ | 2020-10-23T08:57:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-45/segments/1603107880878.30/warc/CC-MAIN-20201023073305-20201023103305-00033.warc.gz | en | 0.95121 | 340 |
I would think that at C-Block on JJ is a tribute to how wonderful he is and a testament to what some people believe he started or a savior from making himself and ISU a laughing stock. There's no in-between. Either way, fans win.

Taming the Extracurricular Activity Monster
Extracurricular activities do have tremendous benefits as well. Studies show that more children than ever are involved in enrichment activities away from home and school.
by Lisa M. Hendey | Source: Catholic.net
In many families, Back to School also means back the grind of days filled with meetings, practices, lessons and homework. Our kids are more over scheduled than ever these days. A friend was recently telling me about a three year old who is playing in a soccer league because Dad fears he'll "be behind" if he doesn't start young. Many of the grade school children I know (although not my own) carry cell phones to coordinate schedules with Mom and Dad. It can be crazy trying to keep everyone's schedules straight.
Extracurricular activities do have tremendous benefits as well. Studies show that more children than ever are involved in enrichment activities away from home and school. Children who are engaged in meaningful enrichment activities learn time management, social skills and important physical fitness strategies.
Extracurriculars also help working parents to ensure that children do not go home to empty houses, junk food, and a screen during those critical after school hours. Sports and lessons teach the value of team work, persistence and facing challenges. Hopefully, and most importantly, they are supposed to be fun!
As we enter into a new school year bursting with opportunities for learning and growth, sit down with your family and prioritize your plans for this year's extracurriculars. Discuss with each child independently his or her interests, goals, and schedules. Look carefully at the anticipated school work load, which should always take priority. Place at the top of the list religious education and service opportunities. If your child is signed up to play a sport, discuss the importance of commitment - make sure that he is enrolled because he, not his parent, is truly interested in playing. Do not commit to activities that overlap or will cause your family undue stress.
If your child is interested in trying out an activity or sport for the first time, talk with the coach or teacher about the possibility of attending a practice or lesson prior to making a firm commitment. In short, talk up front about the activity's benefits and costs ( in terms of time, emotions, and finances) prior to finalizing registration.
I did not grow up to be a Scottish dancer, but I learned poise in front of a crowd from performing in recitals. My son Eric will likely not become a professional guitarist from those days playing in church, but he is learning about liturgy and deepening his love for our faith every Sunday. My son Adam may never Fence in the Olympics, but he is fit, confident and a good sport from his weekly bouts and training. Enter this year's extracurricular season with a good family meeting up front, a few car pools, and a firm grasp on the family calendar and you should be fine!

Recre land Villarreal starlet
By Mark Kendall
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Recreativo have agreed a deal to take Villarreal's Cesar Arzo on a season-long loan.
Newly-promoted Recreativo de Huelva have clinched a deal to take Villarreal starlet Cesar Arzo on a season-long loan next term.
The 20-year-old is a defensive midfielder by trade, but can also operate in the centre of defence and is held in high esteem at Villarreal.
He demonstrated his class by stepping in at short notice to play at centre back in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final against Arsenal at Highbury last season and did a very commendable job against Thierry Henry.
Villarreal believe he has a big future, but having made a raft of signings for the new season are prepared to farm him out so he can get regular football next term.
Arzo formed part of the Spanish Under-17 side that finished as runners-up in the World Youth Championship in 2003 where he starred alongside Arsenal's Cesc Fabregas.
He becomes Recre's first signing since they clinched promotion back to Spain's top-flight. | <urn:uuid:ab159a8e-760a-4a56-a925-40e14ed8e0c3> | CC-MAIN-2016-36 | http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11839/2380274 | 2016-08-28T08:49:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-36/segments/1471982935910.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20160823200855-00037-ip-10-153-172-175.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.967909 | 264 |

Lord of the Sabbath
At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat. But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, "Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath."
But he said to them, "Haven't you read what David did, when he was hungry, and those who were with him; how he entered into the house of God, and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for those who were with him, but only for the priests? Or have you not read in the law, that on the Sabbath day, the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath, and are guiltless? But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here. But if you had known what this means, 'I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless. For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."
He departed there, and went into their synagogue. And behold there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?" that they might accuse him.
He said to them, "What man is there among you, who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won't he grab on to it, and lift it out? Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day." Then he told the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other. But the Pharisees went out, and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.
God's Chosen Servant
Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all, and charged them that they should not make him known: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Jesus and Beelzebub
Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw. All the multitudes were amazed, and said, "Can this be the son of David?" But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, "This man does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons."
Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges. But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then the Kingdom of God has come upon you. Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man, and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.
"He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn't gather with me, scatters. Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is to come.
"Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit. You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings out evil things. I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."
The Sign of Jonah
Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, "Teacher, we want to see a sign from you."
But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given it but the sign of Jonah the prophet. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here. The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here. But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of the man, passes through waterless places, seeking rest, and doesn't find it. Then he says, 'I will return into my house from which I came out,' and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. Then he goes, and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation."
Jesus' Mother and Brothers
While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him. One said to him, "Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you."
But he answered him who spoke to him, "Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?" He stretched out his hand towards his disciples, and said, "Behold, my mother and my brothers! For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother." | <urn:uuid:6194c461-cb91-4868-976f-118a8f7000c6> | CC-MAIN-2015-40 | http://www.jesuscentral.com/ji/life-of-jesus-ancient/biography-of-jesus-christ/who-is-Jesus-by-matthew/gospel-of-matthew-12.php?lgZ=en&ccZ=&vrZ=&scZ=&add=Read&show=Favorite | 2015-10-10T19:46:29Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-40/segments/1443737962531.78/warc/CC-MAIN-20151001221922-00161-ip-10-137-6-227.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.98191 | 1,358 |

Every year Bigg Boss series notices a love story that captures many eyes and help to pull more TRPs and this time there isn’t one but two such love stories budding in the house and that are Gauhar/Kushal and Tanisha/Armaan.
According to a source Tainsha’ sister Kajol, her mom Tanuja and her brother-in-law Ajay Devgan are not very happy with Tainsha’s feelings towards Armaan, which is seen to be increasing day by day.
Last Saturday on Weekend, Salman Khan was seen giving a warning to Tainsha and Armaan that there are 84+ Cameras in the house. It is believed that it was done due to a family member of Tanisha calling the Big Boss Production house and requesting them not to focus on her and Armaan anymore.
The warning by Salman was in a way reminding Tainsha that everything is caught on the cameras and she should be cautious of what she is projecting but it seems she doesn’t really cared about the warning and resounding on as normal.

Complications after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are usually silent and difficult to interpret. Our purpose was to
evaluate the utility of routine placement of intraperitoneal drains at the end of LSG in detection and management of postoperative
complications. This is a retrospective study of all patients that underwent LSG by a standard operative team in a 3-year period.
Patients were enrolled in Group A when an intraperitoneal drain was placed and Group B when not. Three hundred and fifty-three
patients underwent LSG with a median preoperative BMI of 46.4 k/m2. Two hundred and one patients were enrolled in group A and 152 in group B; the two groups were comparable in their characteristics.
Staple line leak, bleeding, and abscess were observed in 4%, 2.9%, and 2.5% of group A and 2.6%, 1.9%, and 1.9% of group B
and the differences did not reach statistical significance. In 50% of patients with drain and leak, per os blue de methylene
test was negative and in another 50% leak took place after the fourth postoperative day when drain was already taken off.
Abscesses were observed significantly more often in patients that had suffered postoperative bleeding (p < 0.001) or had undergone laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) in the past (p = 0.02). Placement of drains does not facilitate detection of leak, abscess, or bleeding. Furthermore, they don’t seem to
eliminate the reoperation rates for these complications. Maybe patients with previous LAGB and intraperitoneal bleeding could
benefit from placement of a drain that will remain for more than 5 days. | <urn:uuid:3ab82eef-f50c-4554-9322-83ea59f42161> | CC-MAIN-2021-31 | https://minibypass.wordpress.com/2011/06/04/sleeve-gastrectomy-4-leaks-in-353-patients/ | 2021-07-28T23:35:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-31/segments/1627046153803.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20210728220634-20210729010634-00248.warc.gz | en | 0.965246 | 367 |
For 3 days, I have been testing this Samsung Galaxy MP3 Player that I bought for my 12 year old nephew. So far, I am thrilled and happy with the features. The battery life lasts all day even if I played the Angry Birds game for few hours. The video is crisp and clear. It has two cameras, front and rear, looks durable and the WiFi access is fast to download.
My nephew loves the YouTube, and for sure he will enjoy this MP3 player. He can access the music via WiFi without a monthly music subscription. The Samsung Galaxy MP3 player features 8 GB of memory for storing photos, videos, music and more. It features WiFi connectivity and Bluetooth v3.0 technology. It runs on the Gingerbread operating system, which is Android 2.3.
I added insurance which is good for 2 years for Drop, Spill and Cracked Screen Replacement Plan. I am truly impressed with Samsung Galaxy MP3 Player and by the way, before I bought this, I checked the rating. It has 5 star rating so; this is really a great gadget to give. | <urn:uuid:769547e4-3b0b-4840-b784-7aa2f0189864> | CC-MAIN-2018-34 | http://www.amiableamy.com/2013/10/ | 2018-08-17T22:49:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-34/segments/1534221213158.51/warc/CC-MAIN-20180817221817-20180818001817-00367.warc.gz | en | 0.950237 | 224 |

Indian Spirit was created by Hellmood and is 32 bytes in size. Indian Spirit implements a 640x400 American Indian cloth tapestry while playing music inspired by that culture. Original Readme:
"Indian Spirit" - HellMood / DSR released just for fun 02/2019 DOSBOX - 32 bytes - PC Speaker Somewhat inspired by Adoks "Indian" Series i coded for one hour to see what i can come up with, but in 32 bytes, and with sound. At the same time i exploited the "secret mode" 0x69 which switches to 640x400 in 256 colors, but without using the size-unfriendly VESA functions. For that reason, this demo only works in DOSBOX or on a computer which as the EXACT graphic card dosbox emulates. Youtube Capture : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TeIkW31Blf0
pop ds cwd Y: xor al,0x69 int 0x10 mov dl,cl mov al,[0x46C] neg al xor dl,al and al,32+16+4+2 or al,0x41 out 0x42,al out 0x61,al mov ah,12 loop Y inc bl jmp short Y
pop ds puts 0 into DS. The top stack value at the start of a DOS program is known to be zero.
cwd is used to clear DX, it is needed because later, pixel setting via BIOS is used (int10h, AH=12), where DX is the row number. Since DX is the same as DS at start, we need to clear it, otherwise there is an offset for the whole graphic effect.
xor al,0x69 is a part of the graphic effect as well as assigning a graphic mode number to AL. This is a non standard short cut to the usual way of setting a high resolution graphic mode (VESA), which needs 4 bytes more. The mode numbers differ depending on the graphics cards used, here it works for the graphics card DOSBOX is emulating, so it should work on real hardware. A proof of concept version for a GT105M from NVIDIA can be found here. The idea of the graphic effect is to
loop over 65536 values of
CX which denotes the column at the same time, while changing the row in
DL to create an interesting pattern. The row has to be kept in reasonable range, otherwise uncaught illegal memory accesses can occur. Here, the row number itself cannot exceed 255, since only DL is modified in an otherwise empty DX. Due to the linear memory modell of graphics memory, a column of 65535 would translate to about 102 rows, so we reach up to 357 rows, which fills about 75% of the screen. Syncing to the timer in [0:0x46C] and generating PC speaker output both are explained here and here. The melody itself is playing with some binary logic on the raw timing value, and heavily intertwined with the actual pixel color, as well as switching the PC speaker on and off. | <urn:uuid:70f5578a-2874-44f0-82bf-50c87134845d> | CC-MAIN-2020-24 | http://www.sizecoding.org/index.php?title=Indian_Spirit&oldid=364&diff=prev | 2020-05-31T03:02:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-24/segments/1590347410745.37/warc/CC-MAIN-20200531023023-20200531053023-00112.warc.gz | en | 0.904723 | 683 |

exact a month ago it was m=11.32 I think it is something to do with the compression level. My expectation is that our goal is m=0 :) but with this speed this could still take another 2-3 mounts unless we speed up the process.
In mathematical terms, m stands for slope (or better modulus of slope - thats why it is m).Since this are mathematical expressions, it indicates the meaning that the slope moved down from 11.32 to 8.44 in the month duration. Having only this two values available it is hard to find the formula behind this. But by having only this information available, and the sender knows about the impossibility to get the formula from that - the meaning might be the delivery of a status. It might me that the information itself is a forwarded measurement result.
Interesting....The compression level heading towards zero.....and "The Event". The process should speed up in the month of September. So - when light meets light, m=0 which triggers THE EVENT. | <urn:uuid:04b36005-e9a7-413d-b65b-399be0cc3793> | CC-MAIN-2023-40 | https://2012portal.blogspot.com/2013/08/m8.html | 2023-10-01T21:48:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-40/segments/1695233510941.58/warc/CC-MAIN-20231001205332-20231001235332-00897.warc.gz | en | 0.926334 | 489 |
BOND/360 ACQUIRES CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED KARL MARX CITY FOR U.S. AND CANADIAN RELEASE
NEW YORK, January 10, 2017 – BOND/360 announced today it has acquired the exclusive US and Canadian rights to Petra Epperlein’s and Michael Tucker’s KARL MARX CITY, which premiered at TIFF, NYFF and Palm Springs. Having completed their series of Iraq War-era films (starting with Gunner Palace in 2004 and concluding with 2009’s How to Fold a Flag), Tucker and Epperlein (who also produced the film) turn their attention to the former East Germany of Epperlein’s childhood, and specifically to the possibility that her father might have been one of the many thousands of citizens recruited as informers by the Stasi (Ministry for State Security). The strange state of living under constant surveillance is both recalled and embodied in this uniquely powerful and timely film. BOND/360 will premiere the documentary on March 29th at Film Forum followed by Los Angeles on April 21st and a nationwide release through the spring with a digital, educational and DVD release to follow throughout the year.
Elegantly incorporating actual surveillance recordings and Stasi-produced propaganda, KARL MARX CITY offers a glimpse of what it was like to live in a world where privacy was vanquished and suspicion ubiquitous. Helmer Epperlein was born in Karl Marx City (now Chemnitz). She left for the US once the Wall came down, but the rest of her family stayed behind. Her father took his own life in 1999, leaving only a brief and cryptic letter. Over the course of KARL MARX CITY, Epperlein’s journey leads her through the former German Democratic Republic in search of clues as to whether her father was driven to suicide by guilt over having been an informer. Epperlein interviews family and friends and visits a Stasi prison and the sprawling Stasi archives, which contains 111 kilometers of files on over 17 million people.
This chilling synthesis of memoir and history speaks directly to our times, when our most intimate secrets or embarrassing photos can go viral in an instant. Invasions of our privacy have become widespread, with hidden cameras, hacked phones, and leaked emails. Perhaps there are lessons to be learned from the most surveilled society in history, the German Democratic Republic. By its collapse in 1989, the state fielded 92,000 officers and had used perhaps 500,000 informants to report on its citizens over the previous four decades. This eerily fascinating, highly personal film transports the audience back to the GDR during those Cold War years, when the capacity to trust one's neighbors was systematically eroded.
The deal was negotiated by Elizabeth Sheldon, COO of BOND/360 and Linzee Troubh of Cinetic Media. “KARL MARX CITY resurrects the police state of East Germany for a North American audience and immerses the viewer in the logic of living in a police state,” says Elizabeth Sheldon, “bringing to life the intentional discrepancy between the ideals of the state and the reality of sustaining a monolithic police state. The film could not be more timely.”
About BOND/360: BOND/360, a division of BOND Strategy & Influence, is a distribution company from the marketing team behind such breakthrough films as Exit Through the Gift Shop, Senna, The Imposter and Particle Fever. Founded by Marc Schiller, the company draws on its extensive experience to bring award-winning films to diverse audiences across disparate platforms. Recent releases include Deep Web, Advanced Style, An Art that Nature Makes and Notes on Blindness.

Orioles, slugger Alvarez agree to deal
- Alvarez and the Orioles agreed on a one-year, $5.75 million contract.
- Alvarez has the chance to earn $1.25 million in performance bonuses.
- Alvarez hit .243 with 27 homers, 77 RBIs and 131 strikeouts last year.
Infielder Pedro Alvarez and the Baltimore Orioles have agreed to a $5.75 million, one-year contract, a person familiar with the negotiations said Tuesday.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press because the deal had not yet been completed by the Orioles.
Baltimore likely will give Alvarez the bulk of his playing time at designated hitter. His arrival probably means Mark Trumbo will play right field.
Orioles manager Buck Showalter said Trumbo has been taking outfield practice throughout spring training
"We knew that a possible addition might come, and we want to be able to not wait until the end," Showalter said in Sarasota, Florida.
Alvarez was shifted from third base to first by Pittsburgh in August 2014 because of poor defense. He became a free agent in December when the Pirates declined to offer a contract because they didn't want to pay what he would earn in salary arbitration.
Orioles first baseman Chris Davis was pleased with Alvarez's addition.
"Any time you add a player like that, it's obviously exciting," he said. "We've got a lot of power potential on this team. We did before, but we just keep adding to it. I'm sure he's excited to finally have a place to call home and finally get after it."
Manager John Farrell of AL East rival Boston said the Red Sox will have to adjust to Alvarez's arrival.
"Another power bat in a hitter's ballpark," Farrell said. "Buck's teams have always been ones that have been filled with power. This lineup projects to be very similar to that."
A 29-year-old power hitter, Alvarez has 131 homers in six major league seasons and was an All-Star in 2013. He hit .243 with 27 homers, 77 RBIs and 131 strikeouts last year.
Alvarez could earn an additional $1.25 million in performance bonuses based on plate appearances: $200,000 each for 350, 400, 450, 500 and 550, and $250,000 for 600.
Gonzalez rebounds, but winless Orioles lose again: Miguel Gonzalez pitched into the third inning as he rebounded from a horrible first start, but the Baltimore Orioles dropped to 0-8-1 in the exhibition season with a 5-1 loss to the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday.
Gonzalez opened by allowing seven runs and eight hits in 1 1-3 innings against Tampa Bay. This time he gave up a first-inning home run to Brock Holt. Overall, he gave up three hits, walked one and struck out one.
He tried to forget about last week's start.
"Of course, mentally when things are not going well you just put yourself down. You just got to get up and put your head down and work hard," Gonzalez said.
J.J. Hardy tripled in the fourth and scored on Joey Rickard's infield out, the only run for Baltimore, the major leagues' only winless team during spring training.
The Orioles had 12 hits and stranded 13 runners.
Right-hander Yovani Gallardo pitches for the first time for Baltimore on Wednesday when the Orioles play at Philadelphia. Right-hander Jeremy Hellickson starts for the Phillies. | <urn:uuid:aa97aa8d-ed18-48f7-bb42-367cbbb890be> | CC-MAIN-2021-04 | https://www.yorkdispatch.com/story/sports/mlb/2016/03/08/orioles-slugger-alvarez-agree-deal/81477426/ | 2021-01-26T00:39:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-04/segments/1610704792131.69/warc/CC-MAIN-20210125220722-20210126010722-00029.warc.gz | en | 0.975665 | 729 |
How about that for a weird post title, right? So. My friend Erin sent me this video last night and Hank and I probably watched it a good five times, laughing until our cheeks hurt. I just watched it again and loved it just as much. I can't even get over how much this video is ME...and maybe you'll feel the same way about yourself too once you watch it. And the chips at the end? Ahhh, so perfect. And those chips got me to thinking about how we all do things that our partners find annoying (I like to call it "endearing"). Being the curious person that I am, I'd love to know what little things you do that drives your significant other (or even roommate) a little batty.
Okay so I definitely do a few things that Hank finds to be annoying. He does his own little irritating things too, but I think when you've been together for almost eight years like us it's all just part of a lot of funniness. Most of the time I try and make an effort to improve these little quirky habits, but sometimes I just get a kick out of doing them because I find his annoyance a little amusing. Sorry, Hank.
1. Our garage opens to our laundry room, which opens into our kitchen, and whenever I come into the house via the garage (which is 99% of the time), I kick off my shoes immediately. I don't know why I do this, I've never done it in any of the houses we've lived in before, but it's such a habit now. So when Hank walks in the same way he always notices them, and usually lets out a little sigh and moves them. I try to remember not to do it, but most of the time you can find whatever shoes I'm wearing for the day right there.
2. I don't keep the toothpaste tube neat. I mean, I don't let it get disgusting, but I don't always clean off the top of it and this is probably the thing that drives Hank the most batty. He dislikes it so much that now we even have our own toothpaste tubes.
3. This is one that my parents find to be a little silly, and I've done this ever since I was little. Rather than eat a whole cookie or cracker, I'd always just eat half, than put it back in the container. My Mom still laughs when she finds little half eaten chocolate chip cookies or crackers to this day after our visits. It's not like I eat half of all of the cookies in the container- I usually just want a bite of one, but I always go back later and finish it up.
I'm weird. But I think we all are, right? Now I'm curious to see if there's anything you do that drives your significant other or roommate crazy! Do tell!
p.s. Lauren of With Two Cats interviewed me and posted it today- I'm her Supermom of the week! So neat. Thanks again Lauren for having me. Be sure to check out her blog too- it's one of my daily reads and really, truly fantastic. I can almost guarantee you'll love it! | <urn:uuid:7636b48c-2c76-49e6-a210-8b011d23020b> | CC-MAIN-2018-13 | http://seanscheidt.blogspot.com/2011/12/annoyingendearing-things-we-doand-best.html | 2018-03-20T05:49:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-13/segments/1521257647299.37/warc/CC-MAIN-20180320052712-20180320072712-00605.warc.gz | en | 0.979531 | 657 |

Our Managed Services contracts give you a set number of days of resources each month. Where ours differ is that you get all the following ADRENA expertise and support when you need it
You’ll be immediately impressed by how leanly and efficiently our Monthly Managed Services Contracts run. The price is fixed for the entire term of the contract and we have a raft of tools and processes in place to ensure a smooth and efficient set-up and operation. Throughout, we are in constant communication and never go silent on you.
First, we set-up a dedicated sprint backlog and dashboard in JIRA. You and your stakeholders are given access and this is how together we can all track and manage all our work.
Whenever you want something, or want to contribute ideas, you can add them to the sprint backlog. Alternatively, you can always email them and we’ll add them for you – whichever works best for you.
Once we’ve received your requests, we’ll review them out in the sprint backlog and provide transparent estimates to help you decide what your priorities are.
Our bi weekly sprint planning sessions are an essential part of our Monthly Managed Services Contracts. It’s here where, together, we review the previous sprint work and your business priorities.
We can have a face-to-face meeting or a call – whichever you prefer. During the session, we’ll agree and add the tasks to your sprint plan. Naturally, your Project Manager will provide updates throughout the end of a sprint and will be on hand to answer any questions you may have.
Time is a valuable commodity – in addition to our expertise, it’s what attracts our clients to our Monthly Managed Services Contracts. That’s why time tracking is so important.
All our customer success and engineering staff working in your dedicated Managed Services team accurately track the time spent on each task. This gives you a detailed breakdown of how your time has been spent. | <urn:uuid:655b24a5-5ce3-4208-81d2-eecf8cd5d176> | CC-MAIN-2022-21 | https://adrena.io/monthly-managed-service/ | 2022-05-16T08:18:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-21/segments/1652662510097.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20220516073101-20220516103101-00348.warc.gz | en | 0.927424 | 657 |

Having denim soften up as it wears is normal. If you want them to be stiff again, you'll probably have to starch them.
That's right. As you wear them, starch is lost which contributes to loss of rigidity. If you're going to starch them, be careful too! Starch can attract bacteria so your jeans may smell and the bacteria can wear out the denim faster.
With summer my denim smells like ass so i ziploc'd it and now its in my fridge. The thing is that i dont thimknits completely air tight i only habe ome that barely fits my denim and i tried to tape holes. Theres like one or two minor holes. Is this a problem? Leaving them overnight
It should not be a problem! In addition to Technique's comment, regularly airing them out can definitely help to control the smell. You can even stuff febreeze in the pockets and give it a good spray. I've commented about this product before but I have yet to try it; Pure Ayre. Apparently it's an all-natural odour removal spray. The guy who made it even sprayed it in his mouth to show how safe it was...
So two of my Sams were accidentally dryer-washed on maximum settings, resulting in the white stripe down the pants leg where they folded. I know the white stripe is pretty permanent sadly, but is there any way to get rid of the crease? Logically I'd iron it for any fabric other than denim, but something tells me that ironing would make it worse. Thanks.
Ironing out the crease shouldn't pose any problems! If you're still unsure, maybe hanging them up while taking a hot shower with the fans off can steam out the crease if it isn't too defined. | <urn:uuid:3b1435fb-0f01-4ef0-b471-076ffc8d2bc7> | CC-MAIN-2016-36 | http://hypebeast.com/forums/denim/38442/page/38 | 2016-09-01T04:01:04Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-36/segments/1471982958896.58/warc/CC-MAIN-20160823200918-00008-ip-10-153-172-175.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.968693 | 369 |
Representing each planet's path as a combination of a cycle and an
epicycle as seen here gives a quite accurate account of the paths of
the planets through the heavens. It is based on the assumption of a
stationary Earth, and a Sun orbiting the Earth. Press the button to see
that the distance of Mars from the Sun remains constant throughout the
motion, as it does in the correct modern model (ignoring for now the
slight ellipticity of the orbit, which can be represented in the
Ptolemaic scheme by small adjustments in the orbital speed.) The point
is that the motion of Mars around its epicycle (the small circle) exactly mirrors the motion of the Sun in its cycle -- because both these motions are simply subtracting from the true motion the motion of the Earth in its orbit.
It's interesting to see how the path of Mars across the heavens
is the same in this Ptolemaic scheme and in the (true) Copernican
picture. To understand how this can be, check out this applet! | <urn:uuid:a4321fd5-ef86-43c7-b7e9-b55a4cdd294f> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | http://library.snls.org.sz/tutors/Cosmology%20and%20Astronomy%204/sims/Ptolemy's%20Mars,Jupiter%20Orbits.htm | 2022-12-06T11:37:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446711077.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20221206092907-20221206122907-00462.warc.gz | en | 0.954023 | 222 |

The wrecked cockpit of downed flight MH17 is not cordoned off and is being watched by only one armed guard, ITV News staff at the crash site say.
Any potential forensic evidence is being trampled on by onlookers, in a scene described as a "complete free-for-all".
Among the wreckage at a site in east Ukraine, it is possible to make out an iPad, flight bags and children's shoes, among other things.
Thousands of online users have taken to social media to call for the victims of the Malaysian airliner crash to be returned to loved ones.
United States intelligence officials admitted that they do not know who fired the surface-to-air missile that downed flight MH17.

A very flexible pump design for intermittent and specialty pump applications. The fluid only contacts the inside of the tubing. These peristaltic pumps are self-priming to 29-30 ft, variable flow, reversible, chemical resistant, and can handle fluids with particulates or higher viscosities. Change the tubing to renew the pump and/or change compatibility.
Select from a large selection of variations on each pump type. Most series contain different tubing materials, tubing sizes, RPMs and control packages. | <urn:uuid:72ef8c5e-9d00-45e3-bc14-0b55e3aa5e24> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | http://www.iprocessmart.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=IPM&Category_Code=Pumps001 | 2018-06-20T09:04:57Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267863516.21/warc/CC-MAIN-20180620085406-20180620105406-00604.warc.gz | en | 0.887796 | 102 |

Extreme full body trample, extreme face trample, full weight throat crushing, extreme body torture, savage cock and balls destruction Under the black high heels of our sadisti brutal Goddess Miss Koralie
I took the slave for a walk in the woods when I spot a high seat. I walk up the ladder and show you the brutal tread of my hiking boots - then order the slave to put his hands on the steps! I step on his hands and crush them under the hard boot soles - but he's not only going to experience some serious pain - I also want my boot soles licked clean! He struggles to lick my boots while his hands are crushed under my full weight, but I show no mercy. I even grind my boots on the back of his hands and jump on them. In the end his hands are completely sore, his tongue is dark from the boot dirt - but my boots are clean again and I had some fun :-D
Savage full body trample, brutal full weight face trample, full weight cock and balls trample, brutal throat crushing Under the killer wedges shoes of our brutal Goddess Miss Emily
Our old small victeem Bambina has heard for some new girls on the site and decides to meet Teodora and Sonny. Teodora is well known with her from old golden days of DuneFeet. Sonny is new for her, and these trio make some wonderful moments together. Teodora walks over Bambina's tiny belly.

A fan sent this pair of rubber boots with heels to me - and they seemed just perfect to combine a messy crush and a nice trampling. I put a banana on my slave's chest and then step on it - but the more I crush the banana - the more slippery it gets! I lose my balance quite often and slip all the time - which of course gives my slave quite a hard time as I need to put a lot of weight on the heels to stay on him ;-) After crushing a second banana it's just not possible to stand on him in boots anymore - I just slip right off immediately! I take the boots off and trample him under my bare feet for a short time - before I feed some of the crushed banana to my slave with my foot ;-)
Nicolle is wearing a sexy tight short floral dress & she tramples Mark's head with 9 different pairs of high heel shoes this girl is no light weight & Mark really did suffer making this movie, his head was very sore for a few days after, this girl totally damaged it under her sexy shoes & hot body, she sits on him to change her shoes then she steps back on him again she teases him using all of her weight to crush him & she even tells him she has all of her weight on him, this girl does not care about the pain & suffering she causes her victim she just steps on his head as if she were standing on the floor, sometimes after she changes her shoes she has him kiss her feet just before she steps on him again, at the end of the clip Nicolle's feet are aching after all that standing so she gets her slave to lick her feet & suck her toes this is a nice relief to her. Nicolle's feet are a little sweaty from all that standing too so they deserve a good clean & pampering, check out the gif image to see the shoes Nicolle was wearing in this full movie, as the movie goes from start to finish you see him weaken as this girl repeatedly steps on his fragile head as the movie draws closer & closer to the end each step takes its toll on him his head is getting sorer by the minute & he has an hour of this torture to endure, he also felt dizzy after, Nicolle all she had was a little bit of foot & leg ache which soon subsided.
Erina's in love with trampling ever since the first time she tried it and by now she's gotten unbelievably cruel and mean. She steps on her slave's naked chest and immediately digs the sharp heels of her shoes into his skin. She even jumps on his chest wearing high heels and stands on one foot only quite some time. Of course the slave's head isn't spared by his mean mistress and she also makes him kiss the dirty sole of her shoes while standing on his chest. After a while she allows the slave to take her shoes off - but of course she keeps standing on his chest and while he tries to get her shoes off with shaking hands her whole weight comes down on one foot only! Even after taking off her shoes Erina's slave has to suffer quite a lot as she can now stand on her tip-toes, trample his throat, step on his face with and of course finish him off with some good jumps!
Seize the day. Teodora and Meg decide to grab few hours today and make some fun. One slave will take care and full out their day. Jumping, crushing and k1lling of man's pride.
Sarah & Nicolle trample & walk all over Mark's hands & fingers under their flat shoes, the girls have fun & giggle at his pain as they compete who can hurt him the most, Nicolle even tries stomping on his hands.
Teodora is a cure for the guys. A new one will feel all the magic that shine from this experienced and oldest girl on the site. He was positive surprised after Teodora's treatment. Tiny body and less then 60 kilos in him. Teodora has over 60 and she tramples him.

Beating on Kim in Mortal Kombat for the PS3 seemed like a good idea at the time. That is until she grabbed me by the ear and started dragging me into the corner of the room lol. Seems Kim doesn't like to lose. "To the corner, now!" she says before wrapping me in a plastic bag! "Lie down! I'm gonna suff0cate you!" while standing on my head and body! My entire upper body was bagged, and now she's trampling me! My face turns red, but that doesn't stop her! She wants me 'gone' from this earth! Kim smothers me with the pillow before trampling me again!Kim takes the camera and starts filming close-ups of my face while stepping on it as I suff0cate in the bag!
Just another random clip produced by Hailey on one of her 'bored' days! Why the long title you wonder? Because Hailey said so, and if we dare change it, we'd be in big trouble...like very big!
Mistress Kitty clean her boots on her slave, she trample him without pity, rubs her dirty soles on his face, trampke his balls, crush his throat, stomp him brutaly, stand on his face and jump on him violently.
Here is an elevated camera angle of the trampling action, Sarah slips on her shiny black peep toe high heels these shoes have a thick sole so they cause her slave a bit more pain than the average shoe, she just steps on to his head & sips her drink whilst he suffers beneath her, she ignores his moans & groans of pain & the fact he is squirming under her, she looks extremely hot this girl has a good figure & those shiny black leggings show it off nicely, Sarah then goes out to wear two more pairs of shoes on his head she then slips her white ones & resumes her head trampling then she slips on the black heels testing out her shoes on his head.

See that gorgeous dark straight hair on my friend on the right? You'd never know she really has naturally curly hair. I'm still in awe of your hair, although I'd never have the guts to do it myself.
Her first pedicure ever. I think she liked it.
Sorry girls, I know you're out of focus, but this is the only other picture I have.
That's me with my feet propped up on my desk this morning admiring my toes. Oh yeah, and I sit like that all the time...
Okay girls, you need to remind me to take more pics next time because these are just pathetic! Can't wait for the next Mom's Night Out!

- 4 years ago
- Wedding: August 2012
I’m 8 months along and I’ve eaten healthy and taken good care of myself along my whole pregnancy. I haven’t drank, I quit smoking, I’ve been careful about not eating too much mercury fish and haven’t touched brie cheese (my fave!) and anything else that might be an obvious hazard…
But even at 8 months, I’m still learning about foods that I “shouldn’t” have eaten….after the fact. Whoops. Sorry baby, hope you’re ok. I really had no idea the list was so extensive, and I even read about safe foods in the beginning. Sheesh. Who can keep up with it all?
I’ve eaten veggie sushi – I thought it was just the raw fish sushi you were supposed to avoid in sushi, nope, turns out it’s any sushi at all.
I’ve had soft serve ice cream – a lot. Nope, not allowed to have that.
You’re not supposed to have any fresh juice from restaurants or juice bars. Really?! Over the last 8 months I think I broke this rule the most. I thought I was being healthy having apple and orange juce and smoothies….nope. Apparently not.
I’ve had deli meats – ok I knew about this one fair enough, but after a few months of going without, I wanted a sub. And then another. And I’ve had a few since. I needed some protein! Boy I enjoyed those subs.
I’ve had potluck. Potluck?? Yup….potluck bad. Whoops.
Hot dogs. Yup, I went though a period of cravings hot dogs. I think I’ve eaten about 5 or 6. It was a gamble. But I figured if I was craving it how bad could it be? Big no-no.
Raw veggies. I though I was being healthy. Turns out…not so much.
I’ve had an accidental brush with feta cheese a few times. It was hiding in some pasta salad at a BBQ. But I’ve since learned I wasn’t even supposed to be having that pre-made pasta salad anyway so double whammy for me on breaking rules.
You’re supposed to cut the bruises out of fruit. Ok well fortunately I don’t like eating the bruised part anyway so I’m safe there. But I had no idea that fruit bruises were a health hazard. Cut ’em out people!
I’ve had a steak that was well cooked but still slightly pink inside. I took a risk. Bad mama.
I was far more fearful in the beggining I will admit and then somewhere around 5 months I threw a little caution to the wind….but geez, I can’t believe all these rules that I’m STILL finding out about!
Sorry baby, I would take full blame if I harmed you at all by eating too much ice cream… | <urn:uuid:a12b444c-c604-4d67-9e90-80a24e8483c2> | CC-MAIN-2017-22 | http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/ive-broken-so-many-food-rules/ | 2017-05-29T21:21:17Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-22/segments/1495463612553.95/warc/CC-MAIN-20170529203855-20170529223855-00485.warc.gz | en | 0.978645 | 653 |
Windows Phone 8.1
Windows Phone 8.1 is the third generation of Microsoft's Windows Phone mobile operating system, succeeding Windows Phone 8. Rolled out at Microsoft's Build Conference in San Francisco, California, on April 2, 2014, it was released in final form to Windows Phone developers on April 14, 2014 and reached general availability on August 4, 2014. All Windows Phones running Windows Phone 8 can be upgraded to Windows Phone 8.1, with release dependent on carrier rollout dates.

Windows Phone 8.1 is also the last version that uses the Windows Phone brand name as it was succeeded by Windows 10 Mobile. Some Windows Phone 8.1 devices are capable of being upgraded to Windows 10 Mobile. Microsoft delayed the upgrade and reduced the supported device list from their initial promise.
Windows Phone 8.1 was first rumored to be Windows Phone Blue, a series of updates to Microsoft's mobile operating system that would coincide with the release of Windows 8.1. Although Microsoft had originally planned to release WP8.1 in late 2013, shortly after the release of its PC counterpart, general distribution of the new operating system was pushed back until early 2014.
Instead of waiting over a year to add new features to Windows Phone 8, Microsoft opted to release three incremental updates to its existing mobile OS. These updates are delivered with corresponding firmware updates for the specific devices. The updates included GDR2 (Lumia Amber), which introduced features such as "Data Sense", and GDR3 (Lumia Black), which brought support for quad-core processors, 1080p high-definition screens of up to six inches, the addition of a "Driving Mode," and extra rows of live tiles for larger "phablet" devices.
The updated operating system's final name was leaked to the public when Microsoft released the Windows Phone 8.1 SDK to developers on February 10, 2014, but it wasn't until Microsoft's Build conference keynote on April 2, 2014 when Windows Phone 8.1 was officially announced, alongside the Windows 8.1 Update. The final shipping code was released to registered users of the "Preview for Developers" program on April 14, 2014, and to the general public in subsequent months, the actual release date being determined by the devices' wireless carriers and accompanied with firmware updates, including Lumia Cyan.
Preview for DevelopersEdit
The "Preview for Developers" program was initiated in October 2013 with the release of Windows Phone 8 Update 3. The program was intended for developers and enthusiasts to gain immediate access to OS updates as they become available from Microsoft, bypassing wireless carriers and OEMs who test changes before including device-specific firmware updates. Users of the "Preview for Developers" program do not void their warranty in most cases and can install any future firmware that is included with their carrier's official rollout of Windows Phone 8.1.
The Windows Phone software updates delivered through "Preview for Developers" are complete, finished versions of the OS, as opposed to the Windows 10 Mobile builds in the Windows Insider program, which are preview versions of the software that are intended for users to try out new features before the final release and may contain bugs.
Windows Phone 8.1 introduces a host of notable new features, most of which were unveiled in a preview released to developers on February 10, 2014.
Cortana is a personal virtual assistant that was added in Windows Phone 8.1, and is similar to Google Now and Apple's Siri. The Cortana name derives from the Halo video game series, which is a Microsoft franchise exclusive to Xbox and Windows. Cortana's features include being able to set reminders, recognize natural voice without the user having to input a predefined series of commands and answer questions using information from Bing (like current weather and traffic conditions, sports scores, and biographies).
Cortana also uses a special feature called a "Notebook", where it will automatically gather information about and interests of the user based on usage and allow the user to input additional personal information, such as quiet hours and close friends who are allowed to get through to the user during these quiet hours. Users can also delete information from the "Notebook" if they deem it undesirable for Cortana to know.
Windows 8.1's universal Bing SmartSearch features are incorporated into Cortana, which replaces the previous Bing Search app which is activated when a user presses the "Search" button on their device.
This feature, which is currently in beta, was released in the United States in the first half of 2014 and in China, the United Kingdom, India, Canada and Australia in August 2014. Microsoft has committed to updating Cortana twice a month and add features. The new features may include more "easter egg" replies, improvements in UI and better voice modulations.
Windows Phone 8.1 uses a mobile version of Internet Explorer 11 as the default web browser. IE11 carries over many of its desktop counterpart's improvements, which include support for WebGL, normal mapping, InPrivate mode, Reading mode, and the ability to swipe left or right to navigate to a previous webpage and back. The updated browser also includes a new HTML5 video web player with support for inline playback and closed captions, Windows 8-style website live tiles, and the ability to save passwords. Furthermore, users can now open an unlimited number of tabs, instead of the previous maximum of 6.
If a user is logged in with their Microsoft account on both their Windows 8.1 device and Windows Phone, their tabs on IE11 will now sync automatically.
Apps and Windows Phone StoreEdit
Apps for Windows Phone 8.1 can now be created using the same application model as Windows Store apps for Windows 8.1, based on the Windows Runtime, and the file extension for WP apps is now ".appx" (which is used for Windows Store apps), instead of Windows Phone's traditional ".xap" file format. Applications built for WP8.1 can invoke semantic zoom, as well as access to single sign-on with a Microsoft account. The Windows Phone Store now also updates apps automatically. The store can be manually checked for updates available for applications on a device. It also adds the option to update applications when on Wi-Fi only.
Developers will also be able to build "universal apps" for both Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 8 that share almost all code, except for that specific to the platform, such as user interface and phone APIs.
Any universal apps that have been installed on Windows 8.1 will automatically appear in the user's "My Apps" section on Windows Phone 8.1.
Apps built for Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 7 automatically run on Windows Phone 8.1, but apps built for Windows Phone 8.1 will not run on any previous version of Windows Phone.
Windows Phone StoreEdit
The Windows Phone Store was redesigned in Windows Phone 8.1 to become more information-dense. App collections, which were previously visible in a different page, are now fully featured on the front column of the Store. There is also no more distinction between Games and other apps; both now show up in the app list, although categories for apps and games (such as "most popular games" or "most popular apps") are still separated. App ratings have been designed to match those of Windows 8.1, with horizontal bars added to indicate how many 5-star, 4-star, or 3-star reviews an app has received. App screenshots now no longer have their own page, but can instead can be viewed at the bottom of the app description page. Furthermore, the Windows Phone Store now includes a "My Apps" section under the three-dot menu which allows users to re-install any app they have purchased previously.
New and revamped appsEdit
Battery Saver adds the ability to track battery usage and determine profiles that will lower power consumption. In addition, the "Background Tasks" page, which allows a user to stop or allow an individual app from running in the background, has been moved from the Settings menu to Battery Saver. In addition to just being able to stop a background task from running, users can now set profiles which will prevent certain apps from running only if the battery level is below a designated percentage.
Storage Sense lets users move files and apps between their phone's hard drive and a microSD card, and incorporates features previously available in the "Settings" section that gave users the ability to delete temporary files to free up storage and uninstall applications.
Wi-Fi Sense automatically signs in Windows Phones to trusted available Wi-Fi hotspots. It also helps to share your own Wi-Fi credentials with your friends and contacts, but without the security compromise i.e. it only shares the WiFi connection without telling your friends the password.
Calendar app now has a week view with current weather, similar to the features in the Microsoft Outlook calendar available to desktop users. The calendar further adds support for syncing Google Calendars with your Windows Phone.
Maps has been overhauled with support for aerial-view, 3D mapping and a dynamic compass. Local Scout, which has been removed from Windows Phone 8.1 in the United States due to the implementation of Cortana, has been moved to Maps. The map also shows nearby WiFi-hotspots, if any available, in your location.
Calling and SkypeEdit
The Dialer app adds a "Speed Dial" page, and calls from a single caller in Call History are now grouped. Clicking on the group will reveal individual call details such as the time and date the call was made. A button has been added next to each caller which allows unidentified callers to be added to a user's contact list or brings up information on an existing contact.
Users can now automatically upgrade existing phone calls to Skype video calls from within the phone call UI, which has also been revamped with larger buttons. In addition to a large photo of the contact, text with the user's name and phone number now appear at the top of the screen instead of directly above the dialer. Skype calls can also be directly initiated from Cortana.
Xbox Music and Xbox Video provide streaming services for movies, music, and TV shows, and are separated as opposed to being joined together in previous versions. Notably, Xbox Video now has built-in support for video streaming. In addition to separating its music and video streaming services, 8.1 also adds support for separate volume controls, audio and video transcoding, hardware acceleration, stereoscopic 3D, and the ability for apps to capture and record video independently of the operating system's built-in video recorder. Furthermore, built-in support for streaming through DLNA to monitors and television screens, referred to by Microsoft as PlayTo, is also included, as well as the ability to mirror display from a phone to a separate screen. Media editing tools have also been refined: apps for slow motion video capture, video effects, and audio effects have been added. Microsoft currently provides bi-weekly updates i.e. twice a month, to both of these apps. In August 2014, A2DP and AVRCP support was also added.
The stock camera app has been updated with a more minimalist design similar to that of the camera app on Windows 8.1. Additionally, users can now save high-resolution photos directly to OneDrive, instead of only having the option to upload the 5MP version of the image to the cloud.
Building on improvements made in the third update to its predecessor, Windows Phone 8.1 adds support for closing apps by swiping down on them in the multitasking view (invoked by doing a long-press on the "back" button), which is similar to how multitasking operates on Windows 8 and iOS. Pressing the back button now suspends an app in the multitasking view instead of closing it.
A third column of live tiles, which was previously available only to Windows Phones with 1080p and select phones with 720p screens, is now an option for all Windows Phone 8.1 devices regardless of screen size. Microsoft has also added the ability for users to skin live tiles with a background image.
With the inclusion of Update 1, WP8.1 now lets users drag app tiles on top of each other to create folders of apps on the Start Screen. Each individual app within the folder can still appear as a Live Tile, and opening the folder simply expands it on the Start Screen so the user can rearrange and open apps.
The "Me" hub in Windows Phone 8.1 has been transformed from a single hub to update and maintain all social media accounts to a single hub to a viewer which allows users to view news feeds from social networks. When users click on a Facebook post, for example, they are instantly redirected to the Facebook app, instead of being allowed to like or comment on that post in the "Me" hub itself, a feature available in previous versions of Windows Phone. The Me hub's notification center for social networks has also been removed, as this feature is now integrated into Windows Phone 8.1's Action Center. Supported social networks in the "Me" hub include Facebook, Foursquare, LinkedIn, and Twitter, which has also been fully integrated into the Contacts Hub.
"Threads," which allowed users to seamlessly switch between different chat services, have also been removed from the Messaging app, which is now solely for text messages. Other changes to the messaging app include the ability to select multiple text messages for forwarding or deletion.
Windows Phone 8.1 adds the ability for OEMs and individual apps to customize their custom lock screen themes even further by skinning the font and orientation of time, date, and notification text.
Notifications and settingsEdit
A new notifications center known as "Action Center" has been added, and allows for the ability to change simple settings such as volume controls. The new notifications area's design allows the user to for example change wireless networks, turn Bluetooth and Airplane Mode on or off, and access "Driving Mode" from four customisable boxes at the top of the screen, while beneath these four horizontally placed boxes include recent text messages and social integration.
Apps can also send users location-specific notifications with the addition of a new geofencing API.
Microsoft has added a Word Flow keyboard in Windows Phone 8.1 that, similarly to the Swype keyboard option available on Android devices, allows users to swipe through letters to type. As the user swipes, the keyboard generates space automatically for the next word to be entered.
The keyboard was touted for its speed and accuracy, and brought fame to Microsoft's research division when fifteen-year-old Lakeside School student Gaurav Sharma, using a Nokia Lumia 520 equipped with Windows Phone 8.1 and the "Word Flow" keyboard, broke the Guinness World Record for the world's fastest typing on a mobile phone, which was previously held by a Samsung Galaxy S4 user, by eight seconds. This record was short-lived, which was subsequently beaten a month later by Marcel Fernandes, who finished a quarter of a second faster using the Fleksy Keyboard, a competing keyboard available on iOS and Android. However, as Flesky relies on predictive text algorithms rather than swiping gestures, it is fair to say that "Word Flow" remains the world's fastest "swipe" keyboard on a mobile phone.
Windows Phone 8.1 allows apps to view all files stored on a WP device and move, copy, paste and share the contents of a device's internal file system. As a result of this change, multiple file explorer apps have been released on the Windows Phone Store since the operating system's debut. Microsoft released its own file explorer app on May 30, 2014.
In addition to these changes, SkyDrive has been completely rebranded to OneDrive across the operating system after Microsoft's settlement of a dispute over the "Sky" trademark with BSkyB. Users are also presented with multiple options when a Windows Phone 8.1 device is connected to a computer via USB.
Windows Phone 8.1 adds support for VPN and Bluetooth 4.0 LE. With the release of Update 1, receiving or sending data through VPN when connecting to a Wi-Fi network and the Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area Network) 1.0 standard are also supported.
Apps Corner is a kiosk mode that allows users to restrict usage to a select group of applications and boot straight into a specific app.
Windows Phone 8.1 devices are currently manufactured by Microsoft Mobile (formerly Nokia) and its hardware partners, including HTC, Gionee, JSR, Karbonn, Micromax, Samsung, Alcatel, Lava (under both the Lava and Xolo brands), Cherry Mobile, and Blu. Additionally, Gionee, JSR, LG, Lenovo, Longcheer, and ZTE have registered as Windows Phone hardware partners, but have yet to release Windows Phone products. Sony (under the Xperia or Vaio brand) has also stated its intention to produce Windows Phone devices in the near future, but this has not materialized. During BUILD 2014, Microsoft announced two additional hardware partners - Micromax and Prestigio.
Starting with Windows Phone 8.1, several hardware buttons that were previously required on Windows Phone are no longer a requirement for device manufacturers, a move that was made in order to allow OEMs to develop devices that can run both WP and Android; the HTC One (M8) for Windows is an example of such a device.
WP now supports on-screen buttons that OEMs can use to replace the capacitive "back, "Windows", and "search" buttons that have been required for devices running the OS since 2010. The new on-screen buttons can be hidden by swiping them to the side of the screen.
Windows Phone device manufacturers are also no longer required to include a physical camera button on the side of the phone.

Tom Warren of The Verge said that it is clear that the Windows Phone OS is being left behind by its competitors. Although the Windows Phone store has many apps, there are still less than the Android and iOS stores, and the Windows Phone apps equivalents are severely lacking. However, he commends Windows Phone for its ability to run smoothly across a wide variety of hardware and the thoughtful addition of features.

UK e-commerce conversion specialist Yieldify has selected Porto as the location for its new office, branding Portugal’s second-largest city as one of the fastest-growing tech hubs in Europe.
The company informs PerformanceIN that it became interested in Porto as a base for its new engineering and product development centre after seeing growth in the city’s exporting of tech-related products and services.
Yieldify plans on recruiting 40 engineers and designers for the Portuguese office to work on its various predictive marketing solutions, which help brands convert users through methods including on-site remarketing and email.
The opening of the Porto office comes off the back of Yieldify raising $11.5 million in Series-A funding earlier this year. It also adds to existing bases in New York, Berlin and Sydney, as well as a HQ in London.
Yieldify’s move into Porto is being reported as a real coup for the city, garnering plenty of coverage from the local trade press following the promise of job creation.
The office will be positioned at Porto’s Science and Technology Park at the university of Porto (UPTEC), home to over 150 start-ups who export to around 120 countries worldwide.
However, a spokesperson from Yieldify tells PerformanceIN that Porto is still finding its feet as a tech city, which would hint at plenty of growth to come.
Issue breeds opportunity
Yieldify’s tech is used by brands such as French Connection and Marks & Spencer to gauge where and why users abandon their purchases online.
With shopping cart abandonment costing retailers billions in lost revenue every year, the company has piggybacked on what has become a growing issue for e-commerce firms around the world.
In January 2015, Yieldify announced a 411% increase in revenue year on year as well as the launch of its 10,000th campaign, and the company is optimistic about progress being made at the new office.
“Yieldify is a champion of innovation and disruption and the city of Porto, which is home to one Europe’s fastest growing tech hubs, embodies these core values,” commented Meelan Radia, who with brother Jay co-founded Yieldify back in June 2013.
Clara Goncalves, executive manager of UPTEC, has seen first hand just how much Porto’s reputation as a tech city has evolved in recent years.
“Portugal is quickly becoming a centre of technological innovation, with tech knowledge exports growing by 30% in the last six years.
“We’re delighted to welcome Yieldify’s new tech hub on our campus.” | <urn:uuid:083a7f56-a4a2-45e9-b03b-b79ec6fda2e6> | CC-MAIN-2018-26 | https://performancein.com/news/2015/09/09/yieldify-opens-new-office-tech-hub-porto/ | 2018-06-18T18:42:09Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-26/segments/1529267860776.63/warc/CC-MAIN-20180618183714-20180618203714-00070.warc.gz | en | 0.961953 | 562 |

High Voltage DC technology is an effective and technical solution for the transmission of power over very long distances. This system is an economical solution to connect grids of different frequencies or asynchronous grids, too. This technology has some better qualities compared to AC power transmission and is the only alternative to high voltage AC transmission.
Although the AC power transmission technology performs generation and distribution of energy significantly well, some jobs cannot be performed with high efficiency and low cost. The DC technology is comparatively beneficial in various fields such as power transmission over long distances, power transmission between asynchronous grids, power transmission through cables, and carrying additional power without increasing the short circuit ratio.
- slide 2 of 6
Economic Benefits of High Voltage DC Technology
The total cost of stabilization of power transmission for very long distance is divided into five parts. These parts are tower cost, land cost, terminal cost, transmission line cost, and capitalized cost.
The DC power transmission system reduces the cost of various parts. The reductions in the cost of power transmission due to this system are as follows.
• Actually, the economic benefits are mainly dependent on the size of the tower. The size of tower required for this system is only 30% as great compared to AC power transmission.
• Due to the requirement of smaller size towers, this system requires 50% less land compared to the AC power transmission. The smaller land requirement enhances its economical benefits.
• The transmission line cost required for this system is 33% less than the cost required for the AC transmission system. This is because the DC transmission system requires a shorter break-even-distance.

Technical Benefits of High Voltage DC Technology
The main technical feature of the DC transmission systems is high controllability when compared to AC power transmission. The other features of the system are as follows.
Benefit in load flow
In the DC transmission system the load flow is totally controlled by the operators present on both sides. However, in the AC transmission system, the load flow is uncontrolled and depends on the actual network conditions.
Benefit in peak supply
DC transmission systems have inherent overload capability; rather they work actively for the peak load. On the other hand, the overload capability the AC power system is very low and not controlled by any means.
AC network connection stabilization
The AC network connection stabilization at the ends of the power grid is comparatively easier and more accurate in the DC power transmission system.

Current Applications of High Voltage DC Technology
The DC transmission system has various applications, but here are described the three most important applications of this system.
• Submarine cable connections
The DC transmission system is best for cable transmission because of its symmetrical monopole configuration. Different cable designs are used worldwide based on this DC transmission. This system is used in such areas where submarine cables are required to connect to the main grid such as for energy platforms, offshore wind farms, island connections, and urban in-feeds.
• Back-to-back transmission
The DC transmission system is very beneficial for back-to-back transmission in many aspects such as it doesn’t increase the short circuit power and restricts the spread of cascading disturbances.
• Overhead line transmission
The most economical part of a DC transmission system is to use it in overhead lines. The overhead lines using this system require narrow transmission corridors, which decreases the cost.

The high voltage DC power system also has some other benefits such as an increase in stability of the AC system and parallel AC lines. Actually, this system provides benefits mainly for long distances as it minimizes power loss during transmission. This power system is best for seabed power transmission and was used in the shared 1961 IFA power grid system of England and France. The AC power transmission system is limited in various areas, whereas the DC power transmission system has various technical and economic benefits. | <urn:uuid:bf8e8347-1d17-47b5-b457-93f1dde69bf6> | CC-MAIN-2014-35 | http://www.brighthubengineering.com/power-generation-distribution/81644-high-voltage-dc-power-vs-ac-power-transmission/ | 2014-08-23T13:24:03Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-35/segments/1408500826025.8/warc/CC-MAIN-20140820021346-00438-ip-10-180-136-8.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.934325 | 799 |

It is widely agreed that the advertising agency of Doyle Dane Bernbach was the primary force in changing the face and direction of contemporary advertising. The agency precipitated this revolution on the threshold of the fifties by introducing the refreshingly simple concept that a product can be promoted more gainfully if its advertising is predicated on a believable human truth, artfully designed and cogently presented. Prior to the fresh DDB breeze, the advertising community had heavily relied on statistical research and arch techniques of graphic design as basic methods for capturing the public attention. These past twenty or so years have more than confirmed the clear-sightedness of what is now referred to as the Doyle Dane Bernbach approach. Although the agency has grown and prospered, it appears not to have lost one erg of its youthful energy and enthusiasm. As a result of its pervasive influence, many of its advertising slogans have been absorbed into the popular vocabulary and the imagery of its campaigns have entered the popular culture.
The vision of a “new advertising” was largely the construct of William Bernbach while he was the creative director of Grey Advertising Agency. By good fortune, Robert Gage, an art director at the same agency, held kindred views and joined Bernbach as a colleague-in-arms when DDB was launched in 1949. Bernbach and Gage provided an amalgam of concept, artistry, and sophisticated intuition that was new to the field. In an address to the Art Directors Club more than a decade after the formation of Doyle Dane Bernbach, Bernbach summarized the agency’s credo: “It is our belief that there is nothing more practical to an advertiser than an intuition so refined by practice that it can provoke a reader to attention with fresh, imaginative insight, or if you will, ideas. It is our belief that every other activity in our business is a prelude, however important, but just a prelude to the final performance that is the ad, and that the measure of that performance is its persuasion, and that persuasion is not a science easily learned like an equation, but an art that can reach inspired heights only by a deeply personal intuition.”
By the sternest measure of performance, Bob Gage has been the most glorious of persuaders. A short biographical note written by Gage, after some thirteen years of inestimable accomplishment, says succinctly: “Bob Gage, Vice President and head Art Director of Doyle Dane Bernbach since the day it opened its doors.” The statement, so spare yet so pithy, tells us something of Gage’s modesty, his straightforwardness, and his keen sense of economy. His exceptional creativity he leaves for others to comment upon. One hastens to add that from “the day it opened its doors,” Doyle Dane Bernbach, with Gage in its artistic forefront, has fulfilled the promise of its first hopeful vision many times over. Gage’s first major foray for the young agency was the campaign for Ohrbach’s high-fashion minded store with a policy of low popular prices. It was a seed campaign Bernbach and Gage had inherited from Grey because of their work on it there. It was also the first demonstration of the innovative writer/art director dialogue. In one swift stroke, the age-old and artificial separation between copy and design was dissolved. While it took a number of ads to shed some of the typographic affectations of previous Ohrbach’s campaigns, sprightly word and image plays presented in endlessly inventive ways the Ohrbach leitmotif of top fashions at bargain prices. Gage’s ability to put an idea in direct, captivatingly human terms was exemplified in each successive ad. The series reached its quintessential climax in 1958 with a design form that placed an unadorned large photograph in separate but equal relationship with the copy. This form became a hallmark of the agency and has been imitated by the countless epigones in the advertising field. The brilliant case in point is the ad that depicts a haughtily attired feline, complete with cigarette holder, symbolizing a snobbish female who, as the copy cattily and chattily tells us, is envious that her lower status neighbor gets her queenly clothing at Ohrbach’s. Gage brought a sort of “Occam’s Razor” approach to advertising.
Alluding to his method, he said: “We never resort to visual tricks to attract a reader’s attention. Our creative solution is derived directly from cold facts about the product itself. This is fundamental to Doyle Dane Bernbach.” Gage, of course, was again too retiring to say that cold facts would remain ever inert without an inspired intuition to transmute them into a hot advertising concept.
With the Ohrbach’s campaign and its attendant commercial success as a debut, Doyle Dane Bernbach, as well as Bob Gage, attracted rapid attention from both peers and clients. A diverse range of advertising problems afforded Gage broad creative scope and opportunities for greater personal insight. Where one product required wit and levity to make the realm of bargain hunting a fanciful amusing adventure, other campaigns brought out what many feel is Gage’s most ingratiating quality—namely, his abiding humanism. “Bob Gage has the capacity to make you feel,” Bernbach says, and that sensitivity to people, the ability to convey in a few strokes the expanse of human emotion, is revealed in the campaigns for Jamaica tourism and the Polaroid camera. Again, no tricks—simply an intuitive, perceptive grasp of the essence and even the nuances of what will enthrall the reader. The tourism series, with its bold type stretching beyond the boundaries of the page and its photographic romance with the richly hued island and its warm vivacious people, makes the city dweller virtually smell the intoxicating fragrance of escape. The Polaroid series, by sharply reducing the words and expanding the picture, tells everyman he has a modern magic in his hands that can capture life’s wondrous moments forever—as if little people were bigger than life itself.
Because Gage is so persuasive and his creative mechanics so well concealed, there is a tendency not to pay full tribute to him. One need only remember the Levy’s bread series to see that Gage was, in that campaign, pointing the way for pop art. Because Gage eschews flamboyance, one can only savor the subtle invention of his exquisitely devised pages. Helmut Krone, a Doyle Dane Bernbach colleague and a distinguished art director in his own right, speaks glowingly of Gage as a designer: “Whatever you think of in terms of page design, he has been there. One may fail to notice his contributions because he doesn’t linger with any of his discoveries. He is a restless adventurer.” Phyllis Robinson, one of the profession’s most prominent copywriters and a collaborator with Gage on many campaigns dating back to Doyle Dane Bernbach’s first days, commented on Gage’s endless concern with detail, particularly the appropriateness of the copy: “Is it good enough?” “Is it surprising?” “Has someone done it before?” “Have we done it before?” Doubtless, this challenging self-search reflects Gage’s study with Brodovitch at one of his famous design laboratories, where Brodovitch continually impressed his students with the desire to do that which had not been done before.
With the advent of television as the complete advertising medium, Gage’s rich exploration of the human comedy found a willing and resonant accomplice. Gage’s distinctive traits of gentle sensibility, lively intelligence and unencumbered feel for the pertinent were given greater expanse and resulted in some of the medium’s most memorable and touching vignettes. It is unlikely that people will forget such masterpieces as Alka-Seltzer’s uproarious “groom’s first meal” and the poignant crackerjack series with the famed comedian Jack Gilford. To call them commercials is to do them an injustice. This was transcendent advertising. To sell a product is the indisputable premise of all advertising. But a Gage commercial does not sell, it convinces.
Awards for Bob Gage and Doyle Dane Bernbach are legion. At one of the Clio Award ceremonies where Bob Gage was honored for his film direction of the Alka-Seltzer and Crackerjack commercials, William Bernbach, speaking of the people in his agency, said, “You have to be nice and you have to be talented. If you’re nice, but untalented, we don’t need you. If you’re talented, but a bastard, we don’t need you. No one exemplifies the nice and the talented better than Bob Gage.” Gage is a leader because he is respected as a doer who is respectful of the best in human communication, and because he is concerned with the professional well-being of his colleagues.
For a short period, Gage assumed the post of Doyle Dane Bernbach’s creative director, only to find that its administrative demands kept him from the excitement that only immediate personal contact with an advertising problem or campaign could give. He has often declined working on prestigious accounts for lesser assignments so that others could be given greater opportunities. Gage remains a pacesetter in a field where imitation is hardly intended as a sincere form of flattery. It is a tribute not alone to his undiminished directorial skill or his adherence to the original purity of the Doyle Dane Bernbach philosophy; it is also a heartening reaffirmation of the good and the true. We live in rapidly shifting times. Some social theorists call it an acceleration of history, others tell us to gird against future shock. Advertising, a far-reaching arm of commerce, can often represent the centrifugal spin of our times in its dizziest, floundering forms. Truth, integrity, quality and dignity are the frequent casualties of the vertiginous thrust for short-range success. Bob Gage, in his flourishing luminous career, has never reached for anything less than full dignity and excellence. Now, more than ever, the field needs staunch standards. Bob Gage, by his work, by his personal mien, and by his devotion to the best of human worth, is the embodiment of those durable standards. He is a model for the modern art director.Please note: Content of biography is presented here as it was published in 1972. | <urn:uuid:a83bb2bf-617b-46c0-ae72-1f7c17c229cb> | CC-MAIN-2018-17 | http://adcglobal.org/hall-of-fame/robert-gage/ | 2018-04-20T02:52:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-17/segments/1524125937113.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20180420022906-20180420042906-00159.warc.gz | en | 0.964994 | 2,256 |

Where are you seeing these duplicate people? Are there 2 people of the same name in the list of all people? Or, are you looking at the Family View Display?
When you add these records, are you being certain to use add to someone in my tree, rather than allowing the record to create a new person?
And, if you do truly have duplicates of the same person in your tree, there is now a "merge duplicates" option, making it much simpler to eliminate any duplicates accidentally created. | <urn:uuid:4513c9ed-f266-4097-a505-f04d003079af> | CC-MAIN-2016-18 | http://boards.ancestry.com/topics.ancestry.membertree.membertrees/1628.1/mb.ashx | 2016-05-01T01:37:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-18/segments/1461860113541.87/warc/CC-MAIN-20160428161513-00170-ip-10-239-7-51.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.93544 | 107 |
EDMONTON, Alberta, March 14 (UPI) -- Shawn Bates scored the go-ahead goal with 5:51 left in the second period and Mark Parrish ended a 14-game drought Thursday night as the New York Islanders erupted for five unanswered goals and snapped a five-game winless streak with a 5-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers.
With just one win in the previous nine games, New York entered with a tenuous three-point lead over Montreal for the final Eastern Conference postseason spot.
But rookie Justin Mapletoft started New York's comeback on the next shift and Jason Blake forged a 2-2 tie 6:32 into the second period.
Shawn Bates, who had a goal waved off in Tuesday's loss at Vancouver, netted his 13th off a turnover by former Islander defenseman Eric Brewer and Parrish scored his first since Feb. 11. It gave New York its first two-goal cushion in two weeks.
Blake capped the scoring with an empty-netter as the Islanders remained three points ahead of ninth-place Montreal and moved five clear of the New York Rangers.
Garth Snow, who made his 18th start in 23 games, overcame a shaky first period and made 22 saves. | <urn:uuid:0cea530f-0034-4330-be28-d92669790a45> | CC-MAIN-2017-17 | http://www.upi.com/Sports_News/2003/03/14/NY-Islanders-5-Edmonton-2/UPI-25071047620325/ | 2017-05-01T04:25:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917127681.50/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031207-00577-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.96359 | 252 |

A legal practitioner and President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Olumide Akpata has said that the relationship between the Nigerian Police Force and lawyers is abysmal in Nigeria.
Akpata made this revelation at a police reform town-hall organized to discuss the problems of the policing system in Nigeria and how to fix them.
The programme, which is a brainchild of Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre (PLAC), looked at the workability and implementation of the new Police Act, 2020, which provides the framework for the police to ensure cooperation and partnership between the force and host communities in maintaining peace, combating crime, protecting liberties, lives and properties.
Akpata expressing how deeply bad the relationship between lawyers and the police are in the nation said this is not far fetched as the trust between them is non existent as well as that of between police and the citizens.
Speaking on the ever widening trust deficit between the police and the public, Akpata noted that it is the reason why lawyers and even citizens are sceptical about the implementation strategies of the new Police Act 2020.
“I am hoping that if we get our implementation strategies right, we should be able to arrive at the promise land”, Akpata said.
The NBA President further mentioned that the lack of optimism in the new Police Act, 2020 is understandable against the backdrop of the recent occurrences in the nation like the #EndSARS protest.
Akpata discusses issues in the New Police Act, 2020
Giving his views on the new law and if it captures the agitations of the citizens on the long-standing clamour for police reforms, Akpata noted that the new act touches on certain key areas such as secured tenure for the Inspector General of Police which helps for continuity as well as community policing.
He expressed his excitement on the provisions of the act which made room for community policing describing it as a welcome development.
Akpata said it appears to be the first time at the federal legislative level that the call to bring community policing down to the people has been responded to and he hopes that the implementation will foster better police relations with the citizens.
However, the NBA president expressed his concerns that despite the well crafted laws and fantastic pieces of legislation, implementation strategies is a determining factor.
“Another major issue that is lacking is that in this new act, there does not appear to be a clearly laid out accountability framework,” he said.
Expressing that it is a major concern, Akpata noted that the act is full of prescriptions as to what standard operational procedures should be regarding policing but fails to proffer the rules that govern how police operatives would be held accountable when they default.
Akpata said “The trust that we are hoping to build can only be built when the citizen is assured that there is accountability whenever the police is found to have erred”.
Work is on going between the Nigerian Bar Association and the National Assembly particularly the House of Representatives in order to provide that accountability framework in the soon to be proposed Police Service Commission bill.
Akpata called on the Nigeria Police Force to undertake enlightenment initiatives in educating the populace on their rights as contained in the new Police Act, 2020 while noting that the force leading the charge will help to build confidence.
PLAC on Police Reforms
The 2020 Police Act signed by President Muhammadu Buhari administration in September, 2020 has been described as something that can engender the needed reform of the police.
Speaking at the townhall meeting on police reforms put together by Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre (PLAC), Mr. Innocent Chukwuma who is the country director of Ford Foundation West Africa says for that to happen a full year is needed to set up the process in motion.
“There’s a very important provision in the new act that talks about annual policing plan from the force headquarters down to the barest unit and that means you take time to plan what tare the priority crimes you are going to be dealing with in a particular year”, Chukwuma noted
The Deputy Inspector General of Police in charge of Research and Planning, Mr. Leye Oyebade disagrees with that submission saying that time is of essence especially in the implementation of the act.
PLAC is an independent, non-partisan, non-profit capacity building organisation that works to strengthen democratic governance & citizens’ participation in Nigeria. | <urn:uuid:07bc4c46-d108-482d-a834-52ffd8655a10> | CC-MAIN-2023-14 | https://reportafrique.com/news/metro/police-and-lawyers-is-abysmal-in-nigeria-olumide-akpata/ | 2023-03-27T01:42:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-14/segments/1679296946584.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20230326235016-20230327025016-00562.warc.gz | en | 0.963761 | 909 |
En español │The December wind was gusting to 40 miles an hour, the rain descending in torrents, but nothing could keep the ancient foursome from their appointed rounds. One by one — three septuagenarians and an 81-year-old — they made their wet way into Gabriela's, a Mexican restaurant on New York's Upper West Side.
"I wouldn't miss it," a latecomer commented. "I don't know any other two hours of my life when I'm so happy to be in the company of other people."
The foursome is part of a widespread phenomenon known as ROMEO, for Retired Old Men Eating Out. The four men, retirees all, have been meeting for a monthly lunch for a few years now. Their conversation tends to be "like a barbell," as one of them put it: "We talk about politics or new movies, what's happening now, and about what we saw and did a half-century ago — and nothing in between. We laugh a lot."
There are hundreds of self-proclaimed ROMEO groups across the country, some with a handful of members, some with as many as 80. They meet for lunch or for breakfast, weekly or monthly. They may form spontaneously because of members' common interests or associations, or they may be associated with religious groups, adult communities or senior centers.
The ROMEO Club of Chicago, for example, is composed of 13 current or former Catholic priests, while the ROMEO Club of Bloomfield, N.J., is all musicians. One of the Gabriela's foursome was a computer programmer, one was an investment banker and the others were lawyers. They have known or known of each other for at least 40 years. Many ROMEOS, though, are geared to attract newcomers to a town and other people with no links to members.
"What's so nice about these groups of men," says Dr. William S. Pollack, a professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School, "is that it helps them discover what women know from the time they enter kindergarten, that a sense of connectedness feels good and is good for your emotional health."
Like any relationship, the ROMEO connection benefits members' physical health as well. Recent research at Brigham Young University has shown that social interactions improve one's odds of survival by as much as 50 percent. On the other hand, a low rate of interaction, the authors say, is twice as harmful as obesity and comparable to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
The research matched participants' social connections and their health over a seven-year period. Any interaction, whether positive or negative, had a beneficial impact.
Retired men are particularly at risk of emotional and physical decline, Pollack says: "Once they're put out to pasture, they lose the sense of purpose and structure they had at work. They lose the friends they had there, too. And most men lack any other meaningful connections aside from the romantic."
Male retirees who live alone are especially subject to loneliness, but even those who are married are often bored with lives limited to browsing the Internet or watching TV. They miss the action and the interactions of their working days. ROMEO members' wives tend to be enthusiastic about the meetings. "It's good for him," said the wife of one of the Gabriela's group. "Whatever gets him out of the house."
One of the favorite topics at her husband's ROMEO sessions is the comprehension chasm that has opened up between the members and the younger generations. "It's not just the music and the clothes," said one member at the December session. "It's getting so I don't understand New Yorker cartoons anymore."
How to Find or Start a ROMEO Group
There are ROMEO clubs in most states. Some are listed on Romeoclub.org, and others may be registered with your town's welcoming service or listed in the local newspaper. If you can't find one nearby, or one to your liking, you might consider starting a ROMEO. Here are some things to think about:
1. Start small. Get the club underway with one or two friends so there is an ongoing activity that other people can join.
2. Work out the details beforehand, not just a firm time and place and the frequency of meetings but such matters as how the restaurant bill will be paid, individually or a group split.
3. Make it easy for newcomers to learn about your group. Put up notices on the bulletin board at your church. Spread the word on Facebook and Twitter and in your hometown newspaper.
4. Maintaining a ROMEO is much simpler than it used to be. Instead of making a dozen phone calls, you can ensure that members know about a meeting and plan to attend with a couple of e-mails. | <urn:uuid:a4bb6574-bcc8-4159-be08-55ee1c6ca56b> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://www.aarp.org/relationships/friends/info-01-2011/romeo_retired_men_club.html?intcmp=AE-ENT-ENDART-BOS | 2019-11-11T20:16:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496664437.49/warc/CC-MAIN-20191111191704-20191111215704-00312.warc.gz | en | 0.977777 | 992 |
Patriotism Changed Fergie's Attitude
It seems that Fergie's reluctance to allow his players to leave for international duty does not extend to the Scotland team!
In the past, our fiery Scot was renowned for doing his utmost to ensure that our half-fit or just recently returned players stay in Manchester and do not go for international duty. Only the past week he had an outburst against the FA and FIFA because of an international match day in March that would come between vital clashes that could determine the outcome of United's season.
But with Scotland in Euro fever, our wily old boss could stay cool. Darren Fletcher hasn't featured for United since suffering an injury on, unsurprisingly, international duty on September 12. Yet the midfielder will start against Georgia on Wednesday after Fergie gave Alex McLeish permission for it.
An amazing turnaround in attitude, isn't it? Nobody would be surprised if supposedly injured Louis Saha started against Aston Villa and it wouldn't come across as a great shock if Wes Brown, removed from the England squad, took the right-back post. But Fletcher goes to Georgia with the best wishes of his manager.
Of course, the explanation is simple. Scotland have done magnificently so far in the Euro 2008 qualifying campaign and while Fergie can't be bothered by the results of England, France or Portugal, he's a Scot and I'm sure he's painfully excited ahead of Wednesday's crunch game at Georgia. One of his favourite ex-players, Alex McLeish, once a rock-solid centre-back at Aberdeen, is in charge of the team that has the chance of pulling off a major shock by topping France and Italy.
But McLeish with whom Fergie still has an excellent relationship has got problems ahead. Alan Hutton, Gary O'Connor, Scott Brown and Lee McCulloch are all ruled out, therefore he'll be without four key players. A fifth one, however is arriving from Manchester.
I of course see nothing wrong in this whole thing. Scotland now need Fletcher desperately, more than Manchester United and it's bloody certain that the guy wants to play for his country in such an important game above all else. But what about Fergie's credibility?
Will anyone believe him when the next time he's talking about protecting his players? After all, here is a man who has just returned after injury and SAF, against all his usual attitudes, gave him permission to play in a difficult, demanding, stressful game. He will be hard pressed to find excuses for not letting his players away on international duty after this. United's players supposed injuries will be very doubtful in the eyes of everyone if they are ruled out right before an international game... | <urn:uuid:66c82f7d-957f-4864-b287-4a12713334cf> | CC-MAIN-2016-26 | http://www.manchesterunited.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=86287 | 2016-07-02T09:29:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-26/segments/1466783396222.11/warc/CC-MAIN-20160624154956-00185-ip-10-164-35-72.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.981013 | 555 |

Dorothy Louise Wildfang
February 12, 1925 - July 16, 2016
Dorothy Louise Wildfang, 91, died peacefully on July 16, 2016, in Salem, OR. The daughter of Elmer and Mabel Daarud, she was born in Bloomington, MN, the oldest of seven children and they later moved to Iowa and North Dakota. On May 29, 1942, she married Clarence Glen Wildfang in Bismarck, ND. In 1947 they moved to Kirkland, WA, and in 1970 settled in Rochester, WA. After 64 years of marriage Glen died in 2006. In 2008 Dorothy moved to Vancouver, WA, and in 2016 to Salem.
She is survived by children Gary Georgie of Vancouver; Sharon Dave of Franktown, CO; and Donald Connie of Salem. Grandchildren are Dannielle Steve Cappellino, Ladera Ranch, CA; Chad Maureen Sterling, Denver, CO; Tiffany Karl Wildfang-Hoch, Vancouver; Brandi Andy Simmons, Littleton, CO; Kate Pete James of Salem; and Lindsey Eric Brady, Seattle. She has 12 great-grandchildren and many nieces, nephews and extended family.
Moving from a mid-west farm to the Seattle area, she was thrilled to have a career at Boeing while raising her family well, including baking bread and entertaining family and friends often. When she and Glen moved to a ranch in Rochester, she joined garden club, founded a pinochle group, gardened and canned, took up oil and tole painting, and always welcomed her family with hugs, laughs and home baked goodies. Upon retirement she and Glen traveled to Europe, Canada, Alaska and more, and toured many states in their motorhome. She attended Community Church of God and Central Bible Evangelical Church, both in Centralia, WA.
Celebration of life will be Saturday, Aug. 27, from 2 to 4 p.m. at Sticklin Funeral Chapel, 1437 S. Gold St., Centralia, WA, 98531. Private interment will take place earlier. In lieu of flowers contributions can go to Alzheimer's Association, www.alz.org, or charity of choice. Also assisting the family is Virgil T. Golden Funeral Service in Salem. | <urn:uuid:9269c847-722e-4753-97ce-bd9f53e42a7a> | CC-MAIN-2018-05 | https://www.vtgolden.com/index.cfm?ObituaryID=308 | 2018-01-22T12:32:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-05/segments/1516084891316.80/warc/CC-MAIN-20180122113633-20180122133633-00137.warc.gz | en | 0.956346 | 476 |
SINTEF is contributing towards good health and quality of life during all phases of life and through the steps of a patient’s journey – from initial health promotion and prevention of illness and injury, to diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and follow-up. This takes place in collaboration with work life associations, health service providers, patient and service user organisations, and the business community. SINTEFs work to meet the needs for the users in the sector is complemented by thorough research competence in a wide range of enabling technologies, including material sciences, biotechnology, sensors and informatics.
Digitalisation will be a key driver for public and private health service development, and digitalisation support of work processes and treatment will create opportunities to improve service quality and increase efficiency in the sector. New systems, services and care models offering better and more targeted methods of prevention, diagnosis and treatment will be the result. The health and wellbeing oriented business sector in Norway will also be important in order to realize changes which will also provide jobs and increased export revenues.
High-quality data from health registries, biobanks and large population health studies give Norway significant advantages and opportunities in terms of research, innovation and business development. This is partly enabled the application of Big Data analysis using artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques on health data – which so far mostly is an uncharted territory with high expectation but where extensive familiarity with the techniques is a prerequisite in order to avoid a wide range of potential pitfalls.
Real-time access to patient data enables new and more efficient ways of working and collaborating, such as digitally-supported point of care health services that include ambient assisted living technology, remote medical follow-up, and home hospital solutions. Shared access to patient data can also pave the way for improved interaction between the municipal and specialist health services and contribute to improved patient safety. Ultimately, this will lead to an integrated system of health, wellbeing and welfare services that is especially important to meet the needs of particularly vulnerable groups such as the elderly, the mentally ill, children and young people, and those with chronic illnesses and complex needs.
Expertise in biotechnology and nanomedicine can contribute towards the establishment and consolidation of industries for the production of medicines in Norway. We can develop innovative drugs for new treatments, exploit available raw materials more effectively, lower manufacturing costs, reduce our eco-footprint, and boost production flexibility. Faster and less expensive manufacturing methods will also help making such drugs become available and accessible to a greater proportion of the global population.
SINTEF is conducting research into innovative solutions across this entire spectrum from basic enabling technologies.
Effective health and wellbeing solutions are essential if we are to ensure the economic sustainability of tomorrow’s health services. SINTEF has a long tradition of research and development in relation to global health issues, all of which contributes towards meeting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. | <urn:uuid:0997afbe-e883-4e44-9e68-d8303ea7bbb9> | CC-MAIN-2021-39 | https://www.sintef.no/en/shared-research-areas/health-and-wellbeing/ | 2021-09-22T01:19:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-39/segments/1631780057303.94/warc/CC-MAIN-20210922011746-20210922041746-00512.warc.gz | en | 0.939847 | 587 |
I'll start the new year by stating....I plan to do a few more posts this year.
I think there will be a few things on the go that we can chronicle...possibly a house (or two) to sell, a few trips (I'm currently in New Orleans, UK is coming up and the better half is heading to Austin and L.A. at some point this year....)
I've got a second wine kit to get going along with my Christmas present (a beer kit !)
That, and lots of pictures...
Hopefully there will be something of interest here. | <urn:uuid:2a8b8ade-49e0-4a66-9fce-38b00f9c7136> | CC-MAIN-2018-22 | http://harveytown.blogspot.com/2013/01/ | 2018-05-26T06:02:55Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-22/segments/1526794867311.83/warc/CC-MAIN-20180526053929-20180526073929-00317.warc.gz | en | 0.976623 | 123 |
Normally when I post something on a Sunday, it’s a music clip. And normally it’s my post.
Today will be another music post, but with a difference. This one wasn’t written by me. For the first time in the history of this blog, I’m posting a guest post. Hooray! The text below was written by the Polski Blog’s fan and reader, Matt Lindley, who has something special for all you (Polish) jazz lovers. Matt, over to you….
Coming to London later this month will be a programme of Polish experimental and jazz music as JEMP Festival hits town. Running from 25th November to 5th December, Jazz and Experimental Music from Poland is a six-day series of concerts at various venues around the city, including Café Oto and Vortex Jazz Club in East London. From Free Jazz to Electroacoustic Improv to Noise, we take a look at three of the JEMP highlights.
Mikołaj Trzaska / Mark Sanders Duo and Mikrokolektyw
25th November 2013 at Vortex Jazz Club, Dalston
Formed out of the ashes of Robotobibok, Mikrokolektyw are a stripped-down duo comprising Kuba Suchar (drums) and Artur Majewski (trumpet). Both members also contribute analogue synth to the mix. Influences from Chicago’s jazz and post rock scene of the 90s are certainly evident, but Mikrokolektyw’s forward-thinking drift is entirely their own. They will be performing music from their new album Absent Minded, out now on Delmark.
Later in the evening, legendary saxophonist Mikołaj Trzaska and drummer Mark Sanders will take to the stage for a special one-off collaboration. Trzaska is best known as a founding member of Polish jazz group Miłość (see below) and has gone on to collaborate with Peter Brötzmann, Joe McPhee, Ken Vandermark and others. London-based Sanders is equally well-travelled and known for his diverse and constantly creative drumming.
Piotr Kurek & Andie Brown and Piętnastka
27th November 2013 at OTO Project Space, Dalston
Piętnastka’s (AKA Piotr Kurek’s) massively psychedelic Dalia tape was one of the music highlights of 2011. Kurek’s music weaves synth and organ tones to create fairytale soundworlds inhabited by the ghosts of Eastern European folk music. Hearing him perform live with percussionist Hubert Zemler will be one of the high points of the festival.
Later in the evening, Kurek will be joined by London musician Andie Brown for another JEMP exclusive. Brown has collaborated with Cindytalk and operates under the solo moniker These Feathers Have Plumes. It will be interesting to hear how her atmospheric ambient drone textures merge with Kurek’s keyboard reveries.
Miłość (Love) Film Screening
30th November 2013 at the Rio Cinema, Dalston
Coming to Dalston’s Rio Cinema will be a special one-off screening of Filip Dzierżawski’s documentary about Polish jazz group Miłość. Founded in 1988 by Tymon Tymański, Miłość were the first Polish band to integrate elements of punk rock, folk and techno into their sound, creating a new style of music known as ‘jass’.
Dzierżawski’s film tells the dramatic story of Miłość ten years after the band broke up, as they prepare for a reunion tour. Will the magic still be there? Expect new interviews, archive material and concert footage as the band discuss their early days and the legacy of their jass sound. The film will be accompanied by a Q&A session.
The third edition of JEMP looks set to be the best yet, so we hope you can make it down to some shows!

Alisha Nicole Mankin was wanted for a misdemeanor when she fled a police stop last month in a stolen U-Haul truck and led police on a televised 90-mile chase along the region's busiest freeways at rush hour.
After pleading guilty to felony evading of a police officer, she could receive up to a year in state prison, or probation, when she is sentenced in Ventura County on March 13.
Southern California law enforcement authorities say there has been a steady decline in police pursuits over the last decade, but a recent rash of chases broadcast to area viewers has put the risk-filled, resource-draining problem back in the spotlight.
And cases like Mankin's have spurred suggestions that the state's sentencing laws should impose stricter penalties on those who flee.
"This is what the Legislature enacted," Greg Brose, Ventura County's chief deputy district attorney, said of the one-year maximum sentence facing evaders such as Mankin, who remains in jail pending sentencing.
In exchange for her guilty plea, Ventura County authorities dropped three lesser charges and will forward a probation report to the sentencing judge with any relevant mitigating circumstances, Brose said.
Asked if he thought more serious deterrence was in order, Brose replied: "I'm sure there are plenty of peace officers who believe that's the case. If I'm on a highway, I have very serious concerns about someone trying to evade police."
On Jan. 28, Mankin bolted from a Palmdale traffic stop by Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies. The chase was notable for its dramatic conclusion, with a California Highway Patrol officer tackling the 26-year-old on the dusty flanks of California 118 near Somis.
But the three-hour duration and costly deployment of cruisers, officers, helicopters and spike-laying trucks was not out of the ordinary. Another high-speed chase three days later dominated local airwaves for more than 90 minutes, and back-to-back pursuits last week involving a suicidal Bentley driver and a car thief also forced state and county authorities to commit tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in law enforcement resources to bring the flights to an end.
Felony evading of a police officer, when combined with reckless driving, carries a minimum jail sentence of 16 months and a maximum of three years, plus a $10,000 fine, said Sandi Gibbons, public information officer for the Los Angeles County district attorney's office.
But there is no direct correlation between the expenditure of law enforcement resources to stop fleeing drivers and the severity of the sentences, officials concede.
In cases where fleeing drivers have caused injury or death, charges of assault with a deadly weapon or murder have been brought, said Jane Robison, the district attorney's press secretary. She pointed to two murder convictions secured against fleeing drivers in 2001 and 2003, but said there were no records of more recent fatal police chases that sent perpetrators to jail.
At least nine people have died in police pursuits in Los Angeles in the last seven months; most of those fatalities were the offending drivers, but two pedestrians were killed on Hollywood Boulevard in July, and the Bentley driver, Chicago resident Mustafa Mustafa, shot himself Feb. 10.
Asked if there should be enhanced penalties for evading police, Det. Bill Bustos of the LAPD's Valley Traffic Division said, "I leave that to the lawmakers to decide. But this is a very serious offense when you've got a person driving recklessly, being chased by police, not abiding by the law, running red lights, putting everybody's life in danger."
Annual incidents of LAPD pursuits have been declining, with 330 recorded last year, down from 419 in 2007 and 549 in 2006, records show. In 2001, there were 769 pursuits reported by the LAPD. So far this year, the department's Pursuit Review Unit has recorded "approximately 30," said Officer David Lee, on par with last year.
The CHP participated in 5,793 pursuits statewide last year, the vast majority -- 5,066 -- lasting less than 10 minutes, said CHP spokeswoman Jaime Coffee.
"I'm tempted to say that the perception [of an escalating pursuit problem] is there because of the publicity," said Steve Kohler, another CHP spokesman. "It's one of those things where historically, especially in the Los Angeles area, there is almost rabid coverage of anything that goes on."
High-speed chases have captivated viewers for decades, culminating in the 1994 police pursuit of O.J. Simpson, said veteran radio traffic reporter Jeff Baugh of KNX-AM (1070), who is on the board of directors for the Radio & Television News Assn. of Southern California.
"When it comes to TV, what troubles me is that it's not breaking news they're reporting with a pursuit, it's more breaking entertainment," he said, justifying the radio coverage as important real-time public safety information for listeners on the road. | <urn:uuid:e992f860-1036-4f2c-922b-12377155707e> | CC-MAIN-2016-22 | http://articles.latimes.com/2009/feb/19/local/me-freeway-chases19 | 2016-05-26T16:45:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-22/segments/1464049276131.38/warc/CC-MAIN-20160524002116-00135-ip-10-185-217-139.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.961135 | 1,023 |

Tonight will be the 3rd night of consecutive drinking!
2 Xmas concerts… needed a drink after that, and off to Nic’s tonight I believe!
Still looking forward to a weekend of actual work though 🙁
Anyway, Christmas concerts were as crap as usual. Last night had less than half the seats filled, I recon there were less in the audience than in the performers put together! Why do they make us suffer every year?!
Still nothing from UCAS, although Edinburgh and Durham have sent me correspondence saying they basically won’t give offers until January… keep me waiting why don’t you!!! | <urn:uuid:5b26548a-caa6-4d59-9d5d-f44c6d374f0f> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | http://mattdyson.org/blog/2007/12/3-nights-running/ | 2022-12-03T12:24:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446710931.81/warc/CC-MAIN-20221203111902-20221203141902-00088.warc.gz | en | 0.973179 | 130 |
The further this series goes, the more I am enjoying it.
Agatha Raisin has spent the last six months back in London and away from her beloved Cotswold village. No sooner is she home but there is a murder for her to solve. Ever eager to be of any help when there is a mysterious death involved, Agatha and her nosey pushy ways jump right on in.
Posing as husband and wife with her hottie neighbor James Lacey, Agatha sets out to find the murderer of Jessica Tartinck, a local hiker who has angered local landowners by insisting that her walking club has the right to cross through their fields.
Agatha gets to live out a secret wish that might not just be wishful thinking after all. These are quite endearing little books that keep the cozy genre quite cozy. Bundle up and enjoy. | <urn:uuid:9050e489-45bf-4f91-b2c2-3e11ffe08286> | CC-MAIN-2017-13 | http://booksnwhatnot.blogspot.com/2009/03/agatha-raisin-and-walkers-of-dembley.html | 2017-03-26T03:23:02Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-13/segments/1490218189092.35/warc/CC-MAIN-20170322212949-00580-ip-10-233-31-227.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.961505 | 178 |
Bobby Darin was not only a man of many talents, but he also wore many masks. He knew how to make a mob of teenage girls swoon, then turn around and bring a nightclub audience to tears. During his 16 years in the music industry, Bobby checked off almost every genre possible–you name it, he sang it. With so many fans of such different ages, Bobby had the world on a string and he liked it that way.
Bobby was also literally a man of many faces. At some of his shows, Bobby did impressions of celebrities like Cary Grant, Marlon Brando, Clark Gable, Jimmy Stewart, and Dean Martin. A bona fide entertainer, Darin incorporated comedy into his shows and was quite the jokester. It’s no wonder that he was on The Andy Williams Show and The Bob Hope Show so often! | <urn:uuid:c83c1460-cb3f-4202-8f65-2a80d4c36e50> | CC-MAIN-2023-14 | https://floridastudiotheatre-stagedirections.org/2018/07/31/the-many-faces-of-bobby-darin/ | 2023-03-26T19:45:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-14/segments/1679296946445.46/warc/CC-MAIN-20230326173112-20230326203112-00182.warc.gz | en | 0.982351 | 177 |

I don't know how many people actually surf in Lake Erie as the picture on the bottle and label suggests, but I do believe that this is a very well done DIPA (and my expectations for DIPAs are high).
It pours with very nice lacing and a sizeable head with good retention. The smell is all about tropical fruit and with a touch of alcohol. The taste is bitter but with a touch of sweet malt for balance, and there's lemon and melon in there. The mouthfeel is pretty much spot on, with perfect thickness and carbonation but also some burn from the alcohol and overall astringency.
Overall, this is a very worthy DIPA. I'm not familiar with Mosaic hops, but this is a bold beer, even for a DIPA. It has the bitterness DIPA drinkers look for and enough flavor to appease any beer drinker, along with some sweetness from some good tasting malt that provides a touch of balance just to say that it tried.
