Background: Maxillofacial tumours in children and adolescents have been documented worldwide; however, few studies were reported from Africa, especially sub-Saharan Africa. In Nigeria, most of the studies emanated from the Southwest region. Aim: To present an audit of clinicopathologic features and treatment of orofacial tumours in children and adolescents in Sokoto, Northwest Nigeria. Patients and Methods: Clinicopathologic records of the Departments of Dental and Maxillofacial Surgery, Paediatrics and Histopathology, Usmanu Danfodiyo University Teaching Hospital, Sokoto, Nigeria, were reviewed for all the oral and maxillofacial tumours managed in children <19 years from January 2011 to December 2015. Results: Two hundred and twenty-two tumours were noted in all age groups during the study duration and 75 (33.8%) of these occurred in children and adolescents. A total of 45 (60%) males and thirty (40%) females constitute the patient population with a male to female ratio of 1.5:1. There are 32 (42.7%) benign tumours and 43 (57.3%) malignant tumours. Burkitt's lymphoma was the most common malignant tumour in 24 cases (55.8%), whereas pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign soft tissue tumour in 4 cases (30.8%) and fibro-osseous lesions were the most common benign jaw tumours in 10 cases (52.6%). Chemotherapy alone was the treatment modality in 24 cases of malignant tumour whereas 13 cases had combination chemotherapy and irradiation. Conclusions: Our findings established that oral and maxillofacial tumours in children and adolescents are quite common in Sokoto, Northwest region of Nigeria, particularly the malignant types. There is a need for improved universal healthcare insurance for all citizens to adequately manage these children effectively. | 2019-04-20T07:16:32 | http://www.afrjpaedsurg.org/article.asp?issn=0189-6725;year=2017;volume=14;issue=3;spage=37;epage=42;aulast=Taiwo;type=0 |

Fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains!!!
If you’re planning to do some fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains, you’ve come to the right place to get the catch of your dreams! The Great Smoky Mountains is one of the last, wild trout habitats in the eastern portion of the United States. There are over 2,100 miles of stream that offer a wide variety of experiences. You can find both trout and bass in the streams that wind their way through the Great Smoky Mountains.
•If you’re a resident of Tennessee and over the age of 65, you may obtain a special license from the state.
•North Carolina Resident or Non-Resident over the age of 16.
•If you’re a resident of North Carolina and over the age of 70, you may obtain a special license from the state.
•Children from both Tennessee and North Carolina under the age of 13, are subject to the same limits and regulations as adults.
So, essentially, anyone can get a license to fish in the Great Smoky Mountains.
You’re in luck! To do some fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains, you won’t have to break the bank. If you are visiting our area and won’t need a year long license, you’re going to love this!
Note: These prices are subject to change, visit the TWRA Fisheries Management Division page for more details and a complete price list.
You can save time by going online to the Tennessee Online License Center and ordering your fishing license online. If you would rather get your license in-person, there are plenty of places in the area to get your fishing license.
Note: You can NOT purchase a fishing license in the National Park.
You’ve got your rod and reel, your license, now it’s time to find your spot for the day. There are several locations in the Great Smoky Mountains to go fishing and each places offers something a little different.
Abrams Creek is located at the western end of the National Park along Abrams Falls trail in Cades Cove. Many fishermen consider this to be one of the best streams in the parks with both trout and small-mouth bass fishing.
Big Creek is located near I-40 at the Northeastern end of the National Park. Like Abrams, you can expect trout and small-mouth bass to be biting.
Douglas Lake may be one of the most popular destinations to fish in the Great Smoky Mountains. The lake borders Sevierville and is known for great fishing and boating. Bass and crappie fishing is the most popular at Douglas Lake.
Hazel Creek is certainly one of the best trout streams in the National Park. It offers a wide diversity of species. It’s located at the southern end of the National Park and also has trout and small-mouth bass fishing.
If you’re main focus is trout fishing, the Little Pigeon River is perhaps the premier trout fishing stream in Tennessee. There are small-mouth bass in the water as well. There are actually 3 forks to the Little Pigeon River. The river splits in Sevierville. The West Fork flows through Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg.
What Else Do I Need To Know About Fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains?
You’re allowed to fish year-round in the park and daily from 30 minutes before sunrise until 30 minutes after sunset. There are certain streams that are closed in order to protect certain fish, but those are clearly marked. If you plan to fish in Gatlinburg, there is a special license you need to acquire, but you can get that with your license in person at the city locations.
•Any combination of brown trout, or small-mouth bass totaling five (5). Once you reach that limit, you must stop fishing.
•The size limit for rainbow, small-mouth and brown trout is a minimum of 7 inches. Rock bass have no minimum. Any trout or small-mouth bass that’s less than 7 inches MUST be returned to the water immediately.
•One hand-held rod, artificial flies or single hook lures and dropper flies may be used.
•Here is what is prohibited: minnows, worms, corn, cheese, bread, pork rinds, liquid scents, salmon eggs, and natural baits along the stream.
Fishing in the Great Smoky Mountains can be a fun time for the entire family. Just remember to stay safe, clean up after yourself and HAVE FUN!!! | 2019-04-25T18:06:53 | https://www.pigeonforgechamber.com/fishing-in-the-great-smoky-mountains/ |
LOTS of lovely free stuff comes your way when you're a Barcelona star.
Every season brings a fresh pair or two of brand new boots, free suits and, best of all, a brand new car.
A deal with Audi means Messi and Co get to select any top-of- the range model they fancy each year for their daily ride, specced up to the max with any optional extra they might desire.
Family men Messi, Luis Suarez and Gerard Pique all plumped for an RS6 Avant worth about £130,000 while lynchpin Sergi Busquets picked out the most expensive model, an R6 Plus worth around £200,000.
New signings Philippe Coutinho and Yerry Mina both picked out an Audi Q7 TDI, at £65,000 while modest defender Samuel Umtiti went for an RS3 Sportback worth a paltry £55,000.
Most days of the week fans from as far away as China, Saudi Arabia and Mexico flock to the club's training complex outside Barcelona to see their heroes blast through the gate to pull on their boots for training sessions.
Barca fan David Munoz told SunSport: "There are people here every day who come to see the players arrive, and hope they stop and sign an autograph.
"They don't stop very often though.
CAR-GO Ronaldo, Mayweather, Cena or Beckham.. which sports star has the most expensive car collection?
"This season they always seem to arrive in their club Audis, but last year Messi was often in his Range Rover, Iniesta would show up in his Porsche and Rakitic had a Mini.
"Some of the players turned up in some older cars you'd never look twice at, and maybe that's why. If you don't want to get noticed, don't drive around in a Ferrari!"
Supercars are a familiar sight on the streets of Barcelona with locals unsurprised to see Messi dash by in a Maserati, Suarez in a Lamborghini or Pique in an Aston Martin.
But their Audis are their daily ride and FC Barcelona, who face Chelsea this month in the Champions League knock out stage, took delivery of a couple of dozen new motors for the first team squad and high ranking staff in November.
Audi's Christian Guenthner added: "The Barca players are expected to use their car to get to and from training.
"For official business occasions they use their Audi. During the selection process Audi and the club work hand in hand. Players can choose from the whole range of models, usually starting with smaller cars for the younger players.
"They each get to choose a new model every season with a lot of optional extras. And with our Audi Exclusive catalogue options, there are infinitely many possibilities."
Audi have had a deal with the Catalan club since 2006, and the German car giant also has deals with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
Every new season sees the players get a brand new car but it also sees a second-hand Messi model on the market.
"Is there a chance to buy one of these cars after the players used them?" added Guenthner.
"Yes, it’s possible to get one of the cars on the official Audi used-car market.
"But we do not tag them as player A or player B's car.
"In many cases the players or their families and friends buy them.
"And, in fact when Neymar left for Paris, he bought his club Audi RS7 and took it with him!" | 2019-04-19T19:02:45 | https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/2193881/lionel-messi-luis-suarez-philippe-coutinho-and-the-rest-of-the-barcelona-squad-are-so-well-drilled-they-all-drive-the-same-cars/ |

Later today (20.04.2017) we will participate in the creation of the first Holographic Projection with reflective screen and special transparent folio during a live event in Bulgaria. Together with our technical partner Special Event Group we have created an incredible live performance for a corporate client, implementing this new technology. More than 100 guests in the field of oncology will have the opportunity to enjoy a 10 minutes long interactive presentation.
One of the most reputable scientists in cancer treatment Prof. Dr. Asen Dudov will present the history of oncology and the possibilities that lay ahead. Using the visualizations of MP-Studio he will meet his past and future self and discuss several of the latest innovations in the field.
P.S. Stay tuned for a video from the conference.

i is the number of iterations, i <= 0.
j is a number <= -1 .
x is the input data.
0xd is a single byte with the hexadecimal value d.
H(z) is an existing hash function.
All hash operations have a binary output; no string conversation is done.
x*z are z repetitions (concatenations) of x.
- It is recommended not to use i=0.
- P, Q and K are chosen to arbitary data . It can be chosen to a different value, but should not be empty.
- P should never be equal to Q, otherwise, A(i,s,x) could become equal to B(i,s,x).
=> in A(i,s,x) and B(i,s,x), this embedded value H(z) has to be calculated only once.
- If H(x) is compromised, MHA2 (even unsalted) would be still safe.
- If a high value for i is chosen, the hash will be slow.
Therefore, the creation of a rainbow table or brute force attacks will be slow (see runtime section).
On the other hand, a brute force attack could result in a DoS if the CPU of the server is too weak.
- The salt should always be set.
The salt should be a merge of an individual (random unique) user-specific salt, a service-specific salt and server-specific salt.
an attack can be found where A(i,s,x) = B(i,s,x) can be enforced.
- <iterations> is the number of iterations, e.g. 1987.
- <salt-base64> is the iterated salt used for MHA2, encoded in Base64. | 2019-04-23T12:41:26 | http://misc.daniel-marschall.de/crypto/mha2/ |

Research findings should be disseminated appropriately to generate maximum impact. The development of research derived ‘actionable’ tools (RDAT) as research outputs may contribute to impact in health services and health systems research. However there is little agreement on what is meant by actionable tool or what can make them useful. We set out to develop a consensus definition of what is meant by a RDAT and to identify characteristics of a RDAT that would support its use across the research-practice boundary. | 2019-04-22T04:40:57 | https://centerforvaccineethicsandpolicy.net/2018/09/30/what-is-a-research-derived-actionable-tool-and-what-factors-should-be-considered-in-their-development-a-delphi-study/ |
Sean Spicer kicked off his inevitable redemption tour at the Emmys tonight, playing the best possible version of himself — Melissa McCarthy.
Much to the shock and amazement of Anna Chlumsky and Sarah Hyland, in particular, the former White House press secretary wheeled his erstwhile podium out on stage to assure host Stephen Colbert that this season's telecast would be able to boast of "the largest audience to witness an Emmys, period. Both in person and around the world."
"Wow, that really soothes my fragile ego," Colbert replied. "I can understand why you would want one of these guys around. Melissa McCarthy, everybody." | 2019-04-19T21:14:15 | https://www.elle.com/culture/a12263337/sean-spicer-emmys/ |

As promised, here is Season Two, Episode Four of The Leet World, Fight Nubs, ready for your hungry watching eyes. In this episode, we see the ramifications of a certain cast member’s actions, in more ways than one. It’s definitely got some lol-worthy moments, so I hope you guys enjoy it.
Be sure to visit the Season 2 premiere page to see a higher-res version of the episode. I’m a big fan of the page, and still love Nick to this day for making it. It helps Season 2 episodes feel more like an event, in my mind, which is exactly what we like. Click here to watch it.
Or if you just want to watch it the normal way, the video is waiting for you after the jump.
Just a fun side note: this season, we’re rolling with a new structure in terms of how we develop the show. If you remember, a few months back we talked about producing the season in three-to-four episode chunks, or arcs. Episode 3 marked the end of the first set of episodes that we made, and Episode 4 marks the beginning of the second set. It’s definitely helping us not only in the speed of making the episodes, but also in the writing of them. I think when it’s all said and done, you’ll be able to look at the arcs and see how they break down. Cool stuff.

Woo First Comment. Incredible show, guys, well done. Trouble in paradise? Indeed there is.
Great show. The CT’s are crumbling their relationship like blueberry muffin. Hope Leeroy becomes one of the T’s, like chewed gum under my desk.
Anyway, great show again, as usual.
Hey I just noticed something , is Leeroy’s last name… Jenkins?
Braw, that was brotally badass. Jace had been doing some brawesome stuff with his music broductions. Loved the fight theme. Give Jace a shout for me.
Can’t wait to see Ep 5. It’ll brobably be even more brawesome and tense than this episode. Maybe a few contestants’ll be writing their… brobituaries.
Well I knew that Chet was going to attack Leeroy. Player was funny.Fite,Fite,Fite! Looks like this is going to get very interesting. I wonder if Leeroy will betray his teammates in another challenge now that he is working with the T’s. Cant wait for the next episode!
So ausome. For some reason I think Leeroy will join the terriosts and Asher will join the CT’s.
You guys are really good at making such memorable quotes.
AWESOME SHOW!! gonna watch this episode now.
couldnt stop laughing when player was running around and: FITE FITE FITE 😀 maybe next time Leeroy and Chet will have a spacefight, another reason for player to run around and say: PEW PEW PEW FITE!!!!
1337 World <3 nao. GTFO of mah laif. KTHX.
“ILL BIATCH YOU!!” lol whats up with Westie now man.
I started laughing in the first minute of the movie!
This is AWESOME as always!
They probably binded the text.
Thanks Smooth Few Films for another great episode! Can’t wait to see the next episode.
The texts should hav been edited in after the filming, by the oh so awesome Nick. You can guess that with players text at the season finale, when he used big texts for “HALP!”.
Keep em coming AND PLAYER FTW!!
And i Still CT”S ftw… even tho i have the feeling Westy is being manipulated….
[quote comment=”13598″]Woo First Comment. Incredible show, guys, well done. Trouble in paradise? Indeed there is.
Outstanding episode, I love where the series is going. Keep up the good work!
Agreed. Leeroy is the one i suspected would rebel against the producer. The producer is such a douchehead. I loled when his computer called him a teamkilling r-tard, funny stuff. I think after his talk with the terrorists, Leroy is going to play it low, so he doesn’t get kicked off. Another possibility, he joins the terrorists? Would be epic sweet.
Bravo, I’m such a big fan of this episode! It’s beginning to remind me of earlier times.
Awesome episode, keep up the good work guys!!
I can’t wait for the episode 5.
And you’re just being a bromo! lmao!!
leeroy is getting too epic! and what’s up with westy’s newfound bipolar disorder?
What happened to Damn Dangerous doing the music?
And how is leeroy a t-killer, he never actually killed a ct….did he?
[quote comment=”13672″]What happened to Damn Dangerous doing the music?
OMG thats so funny “fite fite fite fite fite”.
Epic as usual. Great job!
This might have been the best episode yet, can’t wait for the next one. I hope Leroy joins the T’s, cause I love the T’s but Leroy’s my favorite character. <3 Leroy, Ellis & Ahmad. HURRY UP AND POST THE NEXT ONE… plz.
HD quality DVD’s with all the Podcast’s (which were amazing BTW)and the Extras (Christmas Special, Bag Boy, etc…) would be EPIC. You guys have so many fans you could make some nice $$ off of that. I don’t know how well your Leet World merch faired, but i think a DVD would sell REALLY well. Just an FYI. Ya knaw Ya knaw?
I look forward to more T pwnage, the CT’s shall soon evaporate. I’m still pissed at Westy for his cheap tactics last episode.
I dont know what is worse.. the cliff hangers for Battlestar Galatica.. or this..
It isn’t that easy to just make and sell a DVD just ike that.
[quote comment=”13718″]It isn’t that easy to just make and sell a DVD just ike that.
We’ll never know. Look what happened to rooster teeth and Bungie. It’s worth a try dudes.
If somebody needs a STEAM VALVE Employee account to talk to, like Chet Faliszek, just tell me :D.
Yeah, TLW NEEDS to be ON STEAM! DVD’s !!! START a petition! Burn down…well I suppose talking might work.
TLW DVDs would be promoting valve’s awesome engine and game, so really what do they have to lose?
Indeed. And in good time.
I actually going to start calling people “Bromos” love it!
Awesome show guys, really enjoy your work.
just one question though – when westie used his lifeline in the challenge, the producer said there would be a price…i assume you guys havent forgotten this but i was just wondering when the rest of us will find out.
I love noobs. Have you broticed that broth ahmad and player are broth bronderfully brotarded. Their broth kool in my brook.
Really srry if the the gravatar thing doesn’t work out. At least i tried. | 2019-04-20T00:24:31 | http://smoothfewfilms.com/2009/01/30/the-bro-down/ |
“I have so much to say I hardly know where to start. Lauren is incredible! We did not know what to expect when hiring a pianist. We just felt it would be nice touch in a venue with high ceilings and a more romantic ambience. Upon my first conversation with Lauren I felt impressed with her connection to and love of music. She has worked hard from a young age to become an immensely skilled player. Our entire family has a deep love of music and so I was stressed trying to find just the right method of sound-tracking my reception. She made it so easy and she communicated everything that we wanted to communicate in our favorite second language. Music. She invested in getting to know about me, my husband, my event (even colors and decor), and our story and she used all of that to help create a beautiful experience for us. She even allowed me to pick out her outfit! This is how committed she is to creating the right feeling for an event.
Nearly everyone at my reception commented on how incredible her playing was. She is really phenomenal. What is also impressive is how she tuned her playlist to my guests and what was happening at the reception. She would play more current, contemporary music for the teens and timeless pieces for the older guests. She would read the crowd. Awesome.
Lauren did something very special for us. I lost my mother and brother within a day of each other, 6 months before my wedding. Lauren learned a song that we played for my brother’s funeral and a second song my mother had composed about love and played both of those, in tribute to them, at my reception. Not. A. Dry. Eye. Lauren goes far beyond “pianist-for-hire” she integrated perfectly into the effect we were attempting to create, and made the night magical.

Who is Sherlock Holmes? Such is the question posed this summer by Jeffrey Hatcher’s play Holmes and Watson, the final production of the Alley Theatre’s 17-18 season, but it’s also the mystery unraveled within the International Exhibition of Sherlock Holmes at the Houston Museum of Natural Science.
Fans have been obsessed with the enigmatic detective since Sir Arthur Conan Doyle first set him deerstalking into the world’s collective imagination 130 years ago. In film and television, he and his many contemporary incarnations are more popular than ever. So perhaps it’s no surprise that Houston is getting a cool summer of Sherlock.
But who is Sherlock Holmes and why do we in Houston continue to love him so? This was the mystery I set out to solve with a day devoted to murder, mayhem, and the master detective, ever ready to put the world to right.
First up, I headed over the Museum District to discover the very dramatic HMNS exhibition unexpectedly had something of an immersive theater feel. Before entering I received a casebook I would need to use along my journey into the dark underbelly of Victorian crime fiction.
This HMNS exhibition contains manuscripts and artifacts of Doyle’s era which delve into the history of Holmes and give insights into Doyle’s influences, including the writings of Edgar Allen Poe and Doyle’s his real life medical training and studies under Dr. Joseph Bell. The majority of the galleries are organized around a new Holmes mystery, written by noted Doyle biographer Daniel Stashower. The guiding narrative invites visitors to help Holmes solve this latest diabolical case.
At times working my way through the exhibition did feel as if I had entered into a role playing theatrical piece. The casebook and displays invited me to attempt some observational exercises, documenting all I saw, solve puzzles and work through a series of problems and experiments. The layout of the galleries gives the impression that Holmes himself was always just a few steps in front of me, in the next room.
One of the most fun parts of the experience was watching kids, ages 5 to 65, diligently and sometimes gleefully filling out their casebooks and working through the steps to solve the mystery. Along the way, the exhibition rather sneakily teaches some Victorian history and forensic science all in the guise of putting us through an audition to become Baker Street Irregulars.
For fans of the latest onscreen versions of the detective, the exhibition presents several displays of props and costumes from the three most popular current incarnations of the mythology: Guy Ritchie’s steampunk Holmes films starring Robert Downey Jr., the BBC Benedict Cumberbatch Sherlock and CBS’s Elementary.
Once I felt my observation skills finely honed, I headed over to the Alley to see if I could out deduce Hatcher’s Sherlock, only to find that in the play, it is the good doctor who must play detective.
Holmes and Watson, directed by Mark Shanahan, begins three years after the notorious Reichenbach Falls case, when Holmes and his archenemy Moriarty fell to their deaths. Or did they?
Dr. Watson (Jeremy Webb) is invited to a mysterious island asylum by a seemingly concerned, but perplexed Dr. Evans (Bruce Warren). Three inmates (Jay Sullivan, Dan Domingues, and Chris Hutchison) housed there all claim to be Sherlock Holmes. They all have a different story to tell about what happened that fateful night on the Falls and very different motives for telling their tales to Holmes’s best friend, confidant, and biographer. In turn, Watson must discover who is the real Sherlock Holmes, as danger lurks in every night shadow.
Of course, one of the allures of a good mystery, especially a Holmes play, is seeing if we can keep up with the game and figure out who done it, or in this case who is who, before a Sherlock or Watson explains it all.
In only 90 minutes, Hatcher, director Shanahan, and the cast create enough quick plot turns that audiences members might find themselves dizzy at the final reveals. Near the end, I did want to give my (imaginary) Baker Street Irregular badge a congratulatory polish because I did spot a few, though not all, of those plot twists leading up to the finale.
Whether I half-solved the case thanks to the training the International Exhibition of Sherlock Holmes gave me earlier in the day, or it was the years of watching and reading so many versions of the great detective that made me a successful plot sleuth, who, but Holmes, can know.
Holmes and Watson runs at the Alley Theatre through July 22. The HMNS presents the ticketed International Exhibition of Sherlock Holmes through September 30. | 2019-04-25T12:56:52 | http://houston.culturemap.com/news/arts/07-02-18-sherlock-holmes-houston-museum-of-natural-science-alley-theatre/ |
Balkan Bistro and Bar, formerly the Balkan Bakery in the space demolished to make way for the Waterhouse project on Water Street, celebrated a grand opening in the former Under the Roof furniture store at 1003 West Main Street on Monday, June 21.
In 2006, at the Charlottesville City Market, Anja Cetic and her family began offering traditional pastries, pies, and breads from their Balkan Peninsula homeland. Originally from Bosnia, the Cetics also lived in Croatia and Serbia, moving around as they endured the brutal conflict known as the Bosnian War (1992-1995), which claimed over 100,000 lives and created over a million refugees like the Cetics.
Following the war, they relocated to the United States with the help of the local International Rescue Committee. In early 2009, they opened the Balkan Bakery on Water Street, serving up things like traditional Meat Pie (Burek) and Cevapcici, a kind of grilled minced-meat sandwich, and, of course, baklava. Another treat: Bosnian coffee, prepared by boiling finely ground coffee in a small, pear-shaped pot.
"We are going to be a full bar and restaurant now," says matriarch Anja Cetic, "offering American and European cuisine– what I like to call food from the heart with an accent."
The bakery items will be the same, says Cetic, like the baklava, Mascarpone cake, and cookies and baked walnut bread. But now they'll be serving lunch and dinner Tuesday through Friday, brunch and dinner on Saturday, and brunch on Sunday. In addition to homemade sausages, kielbasa, panini sandwiches, and salads, Cetic says they will also be offering beer from Croatia, Slovenia, and Russia.
"We're the only restaurant in Charlottesville serving these beers," says Cetic, "and the only one making their own kielbasa, hamburger patties, and sausages in-house."
Sounds delicious. Thanks for the heads-up. Will check them out very soon.
We went to a Balkan Bistro and bar for dinner and a drink which was former Balkan Bakery, the service was great and food was delicious. They also have Croatian, Russian, Slovenian, Bulgarian and domestic beers. Bud light was only $2.50 per glass amazing… I will be going there every day.
This place is amazing, the owners work so hard they use local vegetables and local meats, and also they are on the Farmers market on Saturday with delicious desserts.
Fresh ingredients but. Always creative and fun and great service.
Brunch is a comfortable, solicitous and delicious experience here.
Me and my bit@$ are gonna hop in the coop and hit that joint tonite son.
If my girl get the lobster you know what happens next son.
Sounds great and I look forward to patronizing this business.
But does this mean no more guys in track-suits talking Slavic noisily on their cellphones at the Barracks' Rd Greenberry's?
"If my girl get the lobster you know what happens next son."
YOU GET THE CRABS! HA HA HA AHA HAHH HAHH HA HAH AHH HA!!!!!
This was truly an outstanding dining experience that could have been in a Bistro in Paris, but happens to be in Charlottesville. Each dish was beautifully presented, delectaible and interesting in every way. It is rare to enjoy all the dishes my husband and I order but we both did and cleaned our plates. We did find room for sumptuous desserts, worth every calorie in them. We certainly will dine there on our next visit to Charlottesville. | 2019-04-25T15:43:20 | http://www.readthehook.com/98605/balkan-bistro-and-bar |

From the 16th of July 2015 to the 28th of February 2016, the halls of the Fifteenth‐century Refectory of Palazzo Venezia will showcase the masterpieces of the Henan Provincial Museum, one of the largest museums of the Peopleʹs Republic of China.
The exhibition will tell of the passage from the Han Dynasty – when today’s China began to take shape – to the Golden Age of the Tang Dynasty (581 AD – 907 AD). More than 100 pieces will be displayed, including a funerary robe with 2,000 jade listels woven with gold threads, and then lacquers, glazed earthenware, vases, objects made of gold, silver and jadeite. They attest to the extraordinary prosperity and cultural openness of the Tang era, when the capital of the Empire, known today as Xiʹan, was the crossroads of all trades, it used to receive ambassadors of the world and housed over a million people.
The exhibition was organized by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage of the People’s Republic of China (SACH), by General Directorate of Museums of the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Activities and Tourism of the Italian Republic (MiBACT) and by the Polo Museale of Lazio, in collaboration with the Provincial Government of Henan. It is sponsored by the Ministry of Culture of the People’s Republic of China, by the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in Italy and by the MiBACT.
The exhibition is part of the Memorandum of Understanding on Partnership for the Promotion of Cultural Heritage signed on October 7, 2010 by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Activities and Tourism of the Italian Republic and the State Administration of Cultural Heritage of the Peopleʹs Republic of China. The Memorandum provides for the exchange of showcasing spaces dedicated to the Chinese and Italian cultures, as to promote cultural exchange between China and Italy and to allow a greater and deeper understanding between the two peoples. The Directorate General for the enhancement of cultural heritage was granted the first, significant Italian museum abroad by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage of the Republic of China in the National Museum China in Tianʹ anmen Square in Beijing. This permanent showcase already displayed the exhibitions ʺRenaissance in Florence. Masterpieces and Protagonistsʺ in 2012 and ʺRome 17th Century: Towards Baroqueʺ in 2014.
The exhibition ʺTreasures of Imperial Chinaʺ displayed this year at Palazzo Venezia is the third of five included in the agreement, after ʺArchaic Chinaʺ and ʺThe legendary tombs of Mawangduiʺ.
The works on display illustrate the evolution of the Chinese civilization born and developed in the so‐called Central Plain, an area once known as the ʺCentre of the Worldʺ and expanding over today’s Henan province. They reveal how the traditional culture of the politically turbulent but intellectually flourishing period of the first Han empire (206 BC ‐ 220 AD) gave rise to the golden age of the Tang Dynasty (581‐907).
The Han Dynasty (206 BC ‐ 220 AD) has played a key role in Chinese history. During this period, it consolidated the empire founded fifteen years before by the king of the powerful reign of Qin, (221‐ 210 BC) that had collapsed only four years after the death of the First Emperor. Nonetheless, the premises for the imperial grandeur were laid during his short kingdom and a complex institutional apparatus was created and perpetuated until 1911, through alternating periods of glory and stages of decay. The Han Dynasty pushed forward the project initiated by the First Emperor.
The art of the Han, and particularly in the archaeological discoveries that celebrate the life after death of the deceased, reflects the imperial design and ambition of the period. The numerous terracotta statuettes, portraits, tombstones and porcelains on display were found in tombs of officials and officers of the empire. Wealth, the main theme in this period, is evoked by the complex models of houses, guard towers, wells, mills, barns and sties buried in large quantities in the tombs of the high society of the time and displayed today in the exhibition. The burial of scaled‐down reproductions of buildings began during the Han dynasty: models of three and four‐ storey guard towers, palaces with hallways, barns and various buildings of houses, theatres and homes bear witness to the autonomy achieved by the wealthiest families, who excessively expanded their properties and felt the need to protect them with walls and watchtowers. Among the buildings found in the graves, the sties seem to be surprisingly important; in Chinese culture, the pig was in fact a symbol of wealth and was eaten only on special occasions and during religious festivals. The importance attached to these models is attested by the detailed craftsmanship shown in the examples on display; grey, red and glazed ceramic rich in ornaments.
Immortality took up a big part of the Han thought of the period with profound repercussions in the art, as shown by one of our most spectacular findings: the jade robe of Liang Xiaowang, made up of jade pieces of exceptional quality. This body‐length robe is made up of more than 2,000 pieces of various sizes, stitched together with hundreds of meters of golden wire, thus symbolising the high social status of the deceased. According to Taoist doctrines of the time, jade had the power to preserve the body from decay, allowing the survival of the soul. From this belief derived the centuries‐long habit to sew around the body of the deceased a real suit of jade, whose preparation engaged experienced craftsmen for many years. The specimen on display is one of the most beautiful among the almost forty found so far.
The Tang Dynasty (581‐907) put an end to four centuries of strife, bringing back a period of political stability and social harmony unequalled for generations. For the first time, the population was guaranteed a high standard of living, and the styles, the artistic and cultural skills, the trends and the quirks that characterized this period remained in vogue for long and forged the aesthetic imprint of the country of the years ahead. The Tang dynasty opened up to a glorious era, a ʺgolden ageʺ that made China the cultural centre of Eastern Asia with echoes reached the Mediterranean. Fascinated by all that was foreign, the cosmopolitan China of the Tang fed this attraction by importing through the Silk Road an endless variety of goods from all over the world. At the same time, goods carried ideas, knowledge and religious beliefs. It was by then that Buddhism entered China.
This is all clearly shown in the exhibition: the common gold and silver tools decorated with acanthus plants, grapes and floral motifs that attest to the influence of Western culture; vases covered with bright monochrome and polychrome lead glazing, known by the term sancai (three colors); copper mirrors typical of the Tang Dynasty decorated with branches of grapes, marine animals, dragons, clouds, symbols of good hope; red ceramic sculptures of female figures with clothing showing a markedly Central Asian style.
Sculptures of foreigners or ʺbarbariansʺ were frequently placed among the funerary statuettes under the Tang Dynasty, thus attesting to the cosmopolitan life of the time. The city teemed with foreigners, just passing by or rather living in especially reserved areas. They took part in the everyday life of the capital and influenced its culture with their costumes and exotic habits. We see sculptures of ʺbarbariansʺ with their typical double‐breasted clothes, open‐necked and cinched at the waist with a belt and high boots. Sculptures of camels, typical of the Tang period, were associated by popular imagination to the intense traffic along the Silk Road. It’s there that the most cosmopolitan empire in the history of China used to import goods and export its most coveted products: silk and ceramics. We showcase different examples of camels, yellow, hand‐painted ceramics and, in particular, the ʺStatuette of barbarian with camelʺ, a three‐color ceramic whose delicate realism is accentuated by the inclination of the head of the animal.
Also the depiction of horses reached levels of unprecedented naturalism during the Tang period, as shown by the finds on display. In 667, an imperial edict decreed that riding was exclusively reserved to the aristocracy and senior officials, thus becoming the prerogative of the nobility. The sculptures on display testify to the intense passion of the Tang for foreign horses, symbol of the military power and the opulence of the aristocracy. It was essential to undertake war campaigns but also indispensable for polo matches and hunting. The examples displayed in the exhibition illustrate this ideal of beauty and strength, even though forced on rectangular bases and deprived of tail and mane. Among the figures on horseback, there is also a ʺfemale statuetteʺ bearing witness to the freedom women enjoyed under the Tang and to the trend in vogue at that time.
All this conveys the dynamism and the exuberance of the Tang era, which interpreted the novelties coming from the West by adapting them to the taste and the uses of China. | 2019-04-26T14:55:41 | http://en.zerodelta.net/specials/central-plains-between-han-and-tang/ |

How do you top Tetris? Some have tried by simplifying it, usually without success. Others have tried to make it more complicated, also often without success. “Block Puzzle’s Revenge” succeeds on every level though, making it a must buy for 80 Microsoft Points.
Gone are (most) of the classic Tetris blocks, forcing you to come up with new strategies and patterns for the new block shapes. But what really sets “Block Puzzle’s Revenge” is it’s four well mode, where you have to choose which of four wells to drop the piece into. Simple, right? Well, not so fast. You have to consider a few things simultaneously: the strategies about which pieces will fit into which wells the best, but also you have to keep all four wells reasonably active. Go too long without adding something to a well and penalties start to pile up (such as hidden lines within the well, making it a game of memorisation). There are several modes, but for me this one was the standout and easily justified the price of admission. | 2019-04-22T18:55:14 | https://writingsofmassdeduction.com/2011/12/07/day-392-block-puzzles-revenge/ |

OSHA has lost at least 40 workplace inspectors over the past year, raising questions about the effect on workers’ safety. The many dangerous jobs that IBEW members do, like these lineman testing fall-protection equipment, are of particular concern.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is down at least 40 workplace safety inspectors since early 2017, a troubling trend attributable to Donald Trump’s hiring freeze coupled with attrition. Budget cuts under consideration by the White House are likely to make matters even worse for worker safety.
IBEW Safety and Health Director David Mullen said the vacancies are disturbing, but it’s too early to determine if fewer OSHA inspectors are correlating to more workers being injured or killed on the job.
Mullen said many factors have to be evaluated before drawing conclusions about worksite accidents. Still, OSHA’s ability to investigate incidents and complaints, issue citations and enforce laws protecting workers is fundamental.
“Generally speaking, the fewer inspectors, the more you’re asking for trouble,” he said.
Determining the degree of trouble requires data, and that’s where IBEW locals can play a vital role. If OSHA isn’t swiftly responding to imminent danger complaints, Mullen and his staff want to hear about it.
“In my experience, depending on the severity of the complaint and OSHA’s availability in that part of the state, an investigator should arrive within one to three days,” said Dan Gardner, an IBEW international representative for safety and health.
Mullen asks that locals report any OSHA delays directly to him by email or phone, allowing his department to compile data, look for patterns and assess the effects of the vacancies.
Nationwide, 21 states and Puerto Rico run their own OSHA-approved workplace safety and health programs that cover the private sector as well as state and local government employees. Programs in five additional states and the Virgin Islands cover public sector workers only.
The remaining 24 states depend entirely on OSHA for inspections and enforcement. Among them is Mississippi, which has one of the nation’s highest worker injury and fatality rates and has seen the steepest drop in inspections. The former head of OSHA’s Jackson office said he’s especially concerned about risks to workers at the state’s smaller shipyards and construction companies.
“They really need close oversight because the ownership in those companies doesn't likely have a dedicated safety staff to make sure they're controlling their injuries and illness — they’re more likely to fall off the train," Clyde Payne told NBC.
Is OSHA taking longer to respond to your local’s safety complaints? If so, please contact IBEW Safety and Health Director David Mullen by email at david_mullen@ibew.org or by phone at (202) 728-6040. | 2019-04-26T06:27:32 | http://www.ibew.org/media-center/Articles/18Daily/1801/180117_Workers_at_Risk |
Following the Wonder Festival 2018 Winter event in February 2018, the summer 2018 edition of WonFes is underway in Japan at the Makuhari Messe convention center, starting on July 29th, 2018.

» Are Boxing Shoes Worth it?
How are Boxing Shoes different?
So I had just had this discussion during one of my classes this morning so I thought it would be a good idea to get a blog post up about this very topic! So – are boxing shoes worth it?
When one starts boxing, the first things they naturally think of are the gloves, you’re going to be doing a lot of punching in boxing so that makes perfect sense….next is often hand wraps – gotta protect the hands with all that punching coming up. Usually after that people think about a mouth guard and then a head guard. But what gets lost in all of this is the need for boxing shoes. The reason for this is trainers are comfortable, they are obviously designed for outdoor use and/or running so why can’t they double up as boxing shoes? If you are training boxing without the sparring then you might get away with wearing a good pair of trainers for your boxing workout. But if you are going to be sparring, then running shoes simply won’t cut it.
Now it doesn’t mean they are bad, if you start off sparring wearing trainers you won’t feel any different – but if you wear boxing shoes, you will never want to go back to wearing trainers during sparring. Boxing shoes will make a world of difference to your movement, they are designed for the ring and designed to be lightweight, helping you to move quicker around the ring. When the name of the game is to hit and not get hit, the difference a good pair of boxing shoes can make is the difference between you getting into range to land a shot or you getting out of range to make your opponent miss. Trainers are naturally heavier than boxing shoes because they have to provide more cushion and comfort on the sole of your feet as well as to the heel of your foot. Boxing shoes will this area much thinner, allowing you to be quicker moving around.
Boxing shoes are also perfectly designed in order for you to pivot and change directions effortlessly. Pivoting is an essential part of boxing so having footwear which allows you to perform this move without any hindrance really will make a difference to your performance. The flatter sole of a boxing shoe also helps to prevent any tripping that can occur when wearing the thicker sole of trainers. I have often seen participants in sparring trip over because of trainers and their thicker heals. Another point is that boxing shoes mostly cover the ankle, lessening the chances of tripping and turning your ankle over when moving around the ring or changing direction.
The general consensus in our discussion in the gym earlier was that once you’ve worn boxing shoes, you won’t want to go back and wear trainers in sparring. I really do think a good pair of boxing shoes is as important to your game as a good pair of boxing gloves, boxing isn’t all about punching, the fighters with good footwork and good defence stand out too and with the legs doing so much work in boxing, it only makes sense that you need good boxing shoes to aid the legs and aid your footwork. You need to sure of your movements when pivoting and stepping in, the peace of mind boxing shoes will give you is certainly worth the price you pay for them. The extra confidence they provide(the feeling of moving quicker and moving in and out faster is great for the mind) is also an added benefit and a more confident fighter is a better fighter. An important tip to note is that you don’t always want to get the same size boxing shoes as you would trainers. For example, if you are a size 10, you may want a slightly smaller sized boxing shoe as they are supposed to be tight fitting, try a size 9.5 and see how you feel.
So if you are sitting on the fence about investing in a pair of boxing shoes or you don’t have any yet, my advice is to get yourself a pair because you won’t regret it, you will only regret you didn’t get them sooner! | 2019-04-20T19:11:52 | https://fayzfitness.co.uk/are-boxing-shoes-worth-it/ |
On 2nd April 1999 Luise was interviewed by Sue Lawley for the long-running BBC radio programme Desert Island Discs. The programme, which began broadcasting in 1942, takes as its central idea the fantasy that a celebrity has been cast away on a desert island and must choose 8 pieces of music to take with them, which will be all they have to listen to whilst isolated. The rules state they are also given a copy of the Bible (or similar religious or philosophical book) and the Complete Works of Shakespeare; they are then asked to choose one further book and one luxury item which they can also take with them. Each guest is interviewed about their choices and what each means to them.

people in her life and how she has lived through some turbulent and extraordinary times. The interview is both celebratory and melancholic but ranks as of one of the best she has given as it only briefly concentrates on her film career and rather spends much time dealing with Luise herself, her thoughts and, especially, her emotions.
– Luise reminisced about being a great friend of Gershwin who “liked me very much, he was not in love with me, but I think he liked me!”. He would often play and compose music at her home and she recalled falling asleep upstairs as he played downstairs.
– Luise tells a wonderful story of her first trip to America, heading for Hollywood and her new life, accompanied only by her Scottie dog Johnny. As the purser had taken her passport (as was the norm in those days) the crew knew that she would be travelling on her 25th birthday. She sat down to lunch that evening and opened her menu to see “Birthday luncheon for Luise Rainer” printed. She was astounded, “I am nothing!” she thought. Also on the same ship were the Russian opera singer Feodor Chaliapin and the violinist Mischa Elman…who both proceeded to serenade her with a rendition of “Happy Birthday”. She couldn’t quite believe this “great, great, great basso” did such a thing, and you can still hear the excitement in her voice almost 65 years later.
– When Luise came to New York she met the Italian conductor Toscanini who was very kind to her. Sometime later they were both staying in the same hotel whilst visiting a music festival in Lucerne, Switzerland. Through a loudspeaker she vividly recounts hearing the broadcast of Hitler’s declaration, “We are marching into Poland”, effectively the start of the Second World War. That evening she attended a concert by Toscanini in a church in Lucerne where Verdi’s Requiem was performed. This defining moment had a lasting effect on her.
this is the one piece she would take with her if given the choice. | 2019-04-22T20:26:13 | https://luise-rainer.com/television-radio/desert-island-discs/ |
People coming to the United States under the terms of a reciprocal treaty to carry on substantial trade ( E-1) or to direct and develop investments involving substantial capital ( E-2) may be accorded status as an E nonimmigrant. If the applicant is not the principal investor or owner of the treaty-investment or treaty-trader company, he or she must be employed in an executive or supervisory capacity or possess skills that are highly specialized and essential to the operations of the commercial enterprise. Ordinary skilled or unskilled workers do not qualify.
At the Law Offices of Robert P. Gaffney, we understand that it can be difficult to navigate the United States visa process. We provide exceptional service to guide clients through the visa process and help them overcome challenges. From our offices in California, we serve clients around the globe. Contact our leading immigration attorneys today at 415-503-9653.
E-1 or E-2 nonimmigrant status authorizes a person to remain in the U.S. only in connection with the management of or employment by the business that is the basis of his or her visa application. Thus, an E-1 or E-2 principal is not authorized to work in the U.S. for an employer other than the treaty company. Dependent spouses of E-1 or E-2 principals, however, are entitled to "open market" work authorization during the validity of the principal's authorized period of stay. Both treaty traders and treaty investors must intend to depart when their statuses terminate. Nonetheless, holders of E visas may live in the United States as long as they continue to engage in activities consistent with their status. Many traders and investors properly remain in E status for years — even decades.
E-visa classification is available only to nationals of countries that have entered into appropriate treaty agreements with the United States and who are seeking to enter the U.S. to develop and direct or otherwise accept qualified employment by a company controlled by nationals of the treaty country. Information regarding which countries have treaties that support E-1 and/or E-2 status is available on the State Department's Visa Reciprocity Table.
E-1 classification is available to a person coming to the United States solely to carry on "substantial" trade, including trade-in services or trade-in technology, principally between the United States and the foreign state of which he or she is a national. A pattern of many small-value transactions can suffice if substantial in the aggregate. More than half of the total volume of international trade conducted by the treaty firm, however, must flow between the United States and the treaty country.
Trade-in services for E-1 visa purposes may include banking, insurance, transportation, communications and data processing, advertising, accounting, design and engineering, management consulting, tourism and technology transfer.
E-2 classification is available to a person coming to the United States solely to direct and develop the operations of an enterprise in which he or she has invested or is actively in the process of investing a "substantial" amount of capital. As used to describe the required investment, "substantial" indicates that the amount invested is sufficient to ensure the investor's financial commitment to the successful operations of the enterprise and supports the likelihood that the investor will successfully direct and develop the enterprise. The substantiality of an investment is determined by the application of a "proportionality test."
The E-2 investor must place lawfully acquired, owned and controlled capital at commercial risk with a profit objective and the invested capital must be subject to loss if the investment fails. Furthermore, a "marginal" investment that will return only enough income to provide a living for the applicant and his or her family will not support a successful E-2 visa application.

Tisdale, who is from Lugoff-Elgin, played four years for the Winthrop University team and two years of independent professional baseball.
He coached high school baseball in Miami, where he earned region coach of the year honors. “I had good kids to work with,” said Tisdale.
After meeting with returning York players in the school’s media center last week, Tisdale said he left the get-acquainted session feeling good about his new coaching position.
“There’s support from the administration, athletic director and the community,” he said.
Tisdale said he knows Region 3-AAAA is a strong region. “Every game is a challenge,” he said.
While he is eager to embrace his new role, Tisdale said, he plans to touch all the bases. He wants to get a firsthand look at baseball in the community, whether it’s youth play at the York Recreation Complex, Dixie Boys at Optimist Park or Junior Legion baseball at the YCHS complex.
Tisdale was scheduled to meet with Boyd this week to talk about the Cougars’ offseason involvement. “Coach Tisdale wants to get things started with the players as soon as he can,” Boyd said. | 2019-04-21T19:04:21 | https://www.heraldonline.com/news/local/community/enquirer-herald/article12118877.html |

VITAL FARMS MAKES BUTTER NOW!
Lucky Ladies Free To Forage!
I have been OBSESSED with Vital Farm Eggs for a long time now! I was pulled in initially by their ADORABLE packaging and then the fact that their eggs are Pasture-Raised sealed the deal!
They have 3 different kinds of Pasture-Raised eggs, but the black package are the ones most commonly found in stores right now. I have also purchased the tan package at Whole Foods, but have never seen the cream package! Hopefully soon I will.
All of them have the cutest sayings on them!
Happy hens make better eggs! Their orange yolks are so incredible. If you've never tried these eggs you absolutely HAVE TO! It makes a huge difference what kind of eggs you are buying.
Now the team from Vital Farms is making packaged hard-boiled eggs and butter too! I love buying convenience packs of hard boiled eggs to make deviled eggs. Starting with these eggs means it takes literally 2 minutes to throw together amazing deviled eggs and I love any time-saving solution because mom life is hard and BUSY!
Now let's talk about BUTTER!
Being keto introduced me to the world of grass fed butter, like many of you I'm sure! I was amazing how much better it was than the butter I had been eating before. Standard butter now tastes like wax to me- gross! But now let's talk about pasture raised AND grass fed butter aka the holy grail of butter!
At its simplest, pasture raised can be thought of a a welfare standard – how the cows are raised, and where they eat – , whereas grass fed refers solely too what they eat and their diet.
Just like you want happy hens making your eggs, you want happy cows making your butter! It's as simple as that! The Vital Farms butter may not be as easy to find because it is newer, but they have a store locator you can check out!
Once you get your Vital Farms eggs and butter here are some recipes to try out!
Mix all ingredients in a food processor or in a mixer with paddle attachment.
Mix thoroughly, but don’t whip.
The herb butter with the Butter And Herb Pork Chops on page 116 of my cookbook, The Easy 5-Ingredient Ketogenic Diet Cookbook, would be amazing!
I love deviled eggs, always have and always will. The most time consuming part of making deviled eggs is making the hard boiled eggs and peeling the shells off, I hate that part! My solution is using the Vital Farms Pasture Raised Hard Boiled Eggs! Super convenient, especially when you only want to make a small serving of deviled eggs, like I often do for my daughter and I.
If you are making deviled eggs for a crowd then I love using regular Vital Farms eggs and placing a dozen in my Instant Pot with one cup of water and cooking for 7 minutes. They turn out perfect and the steam in the pressure cooker makes the shells practically fall off. Here are full instructions.
Now back to the Crabby Eggs! I made an omelette topped with crab awhile back and ever since I have been thinking about adding it to deviled eggs and today was the day! I used the egg base I always use and then added Sriracha, wild caught crab meat, and parsley. I also cut the eggs differently than the typically horizontal deviled egg just to be a little fancy.
Slice off the top third of the hard boiled egg, using your knife scrape out the yolk into a bowl being careful to keep the egg white in tact. Slice a sliver of egg white off the bottom of the egg to create a flat surface to stand the egg up.
Mix the yolk with the mayo, sour cream, mustard, sriracha, salt and pepper. Once smooth add 2 oz of crab meat broken up into small pieces.
Spoon the mixture into the egg white or fill a zipper bag, cut off a corner and pipe the mixture into the egg white.
Add additional 2 oz of crab meat on top of the filled eggs, garnish with parsley and paprika.
You can find more deviled eggs recipes on pages 79 and 80 of my cookbook, The Easy 5-Ingredient Ketogenic Diet Cookbook. I feature BLT Deviled Eggs, Bacon Jalapeno Deviled Eggs and Bacon Avocado Deviled Eggs. | 2019-04-24T02:09:54 | https://ketointhecity.com/blog/2018/4/2/vital-farms-makes-butter-now |

We’re releasing a new class of reinforcement learning algorithms, Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), which perform comparably or better than state-of-the-art approaches while being much simpler to implement and tune. PPO has become the default reinforcement learning algorithm at OpenAI because of its ease of use and good performance.
PPO lets us train AI policies in challenging environments, like the Roboschool one shown above where an agent tries to reach a target (the pink sphere), learning to walk, run, turn, use its momentum to recover from minor hits, and how to stand up from the ground when it is knocked over.
Policy gradient methods are fundamental to recent breakthroughs in using deep neural networks for control, from video games, to 3D locomotion, to Go. But getting good results via policy gradient methods is challenging because they are sensitive to the choice of stepsize — too small, and progress is hopelessly slow; too large and the signal is overwhelmed by the noise, or one might see catastrophic drops in performance. They also often have very poor sample efficiency, taking millions (or billions) of timesteps to learn simple tasks.
Researchers have sought to eliminate these flaws with approaches like TRPO and ACER, by constraining or otherwise optimizing the size of a policy update. These methods have their own trade-offs — ACER is far more complicated than PPO, requiring the addition of code for off-policy corrections and a replay buffer, while only doing marginally better than PPO on the Atari benchmark; TRPO — though useful for continuous control tasks — isn't easily compatible with algorithms that share parameters between a policy and value function or auxiliary losses, like those used to solve problems in Atari and other domains where the visual input is significant.
With supervised learning, we can easily implement the cost function, run gradient descent on it, and be very confident that we'll get excellent results with relatively little hyperparameter tuning. The route to success in reinforcement learning isn't as obvious — the algorithms have many moving parts that are hard to debug, and they require substantial effort in tuning in order to get good results. PPO strikes a balance between ease of implementation, sample complexity, and ease of tuning, trying to compute an update at each step that minimizes the cost function while ensuring the deviation from the previous policy is relatively small.
This objective implements a way to do a Trust Region update which is compatible with Stochastic Gradient Descent, and simplifies the algorithm by removing the KL penalty and need to make adaptive updates. In tests, this algorithm has displayed the best performance on continuous control tasks and almost matches ACER's performance on Atari, despite being far simpler to implement.
Agents trained with PPO develop flexible movement policies that let them improvise turns and tilts as they head towards a target location.
We've created interactive agents based on policies trained by PPO — we can use the keyboard to set new target positions for a robot in an environment within Roboschool; though the input sequences are different from what the agent was trained on, it manages to generalize.
We've also used PPO to teach complicated, simulated robots to walk, like the 'Atlas' model from Boston Dynamics shown below; the model has 30 distinct joints, versus 17 for the bipedal robot. Other researchers have used PPO to train simulated robots to perform impressive feats of parkour while running over obstacles.
This release of baselines includes scalable, parallel implementations of PPO and TRPO which both use MPI for data passing. Both use Python3 and TensorFlow. We're also adding pre-trained versions of the policies used to train the above robots to the Roboschool agent zoo.
Update: We're also releasing a GPU-enabled implementation of PPO, called PPO2. This runs approximately 3X faster than the current PPO baseline on Atari. In addition, we're releasing an implementation of Actor Critic with Experience Replay (ACER), a sample-efficient policy gradient algorithm. ACER makes use of a replay buffer, enabling it to perform more than one gradient update using each piece of sampled experience, as well as a Q-Function approximate trained with the Retrace algorithm.
We’re looking for people to help build and optimize our reinforcement learning algorithm codebase. If you’re excited about RL, benchmarking, thorough experimentation, and open source, please apply, and mention that you read the baselines PPO post in your application. | 2019-04-25T16:41:08 | https://www.openai.com/blog/openai-baselines-ppo/ |

Paper airplanes have been around since forever. It’s one of those things that everyone should learn to do during their childhood. I remember my dad making paper aiplanes for us when I was a kid. And I still love making paper airplanes with my grandkids. All you need is a sheet of standard paper, 8.5×11, and you can make plain white airplanes or use colored paper. For extra detail let the kids decorate with markers. These paper airplanes are fun to fly, both indoors or outside.
Here we provide you with a step by step photo tutorial of making the ultimate gliding paper airplane. We guarantee this plane will loop and glide, taking unexpected turns along the way.
Step by step directions for making a paper airplane that is an ultimate glider.
Fold the short side of the paper over to the right, even with the edge, and make a crease.

ASK SHIRLEY CHIU about her heritage, and you may get more than one answer. She might tell you that she is a Canadian of Chinese descent who was born in Calcutta, India. Or she might say that she is Hakka-Chinese, a response often met with bewilderment.
The Hakkas, whose name means “guest people,” are a minority ethnic group in China. They were a marginalized group that, throughout history, migrated in search of a homeland, first within China, then in India, Singapore, Mauritius and the Caribbean.
When she was 12, Chiu emigrated with her family from Calcutta to Toronto — a centre of Hakka settlement in recent years. The move heightened her awareness of her ancestry so much that the now 25-year-old York University student is studying the city’s Hakka community for her master’s thesis in geography. Her innovative research proposal has earned the Maxwell Studentship in Human Geography, a $5,000 grant awarded by The Royal Canadian Geographical Society.
This summer, she is interviewing Caribbean and Indian Hakkas to determine the characteristics that shape their identity and the role of place in forming that identity. She hopes her study will help fill a void in the academic literature on this widely dispersed, but largely unknown group. | 2019-04-22T15:11:02 | http://www.rcgs.org/programs/research_grants/maxwell_2002.asp |

The South Africa 1 oz gold Krugerrand coin made its debut way back in 1967. The original motivation for minting this gorgeous gold coin was to assist in the marketing of South Africa's gold. Fast forward 13 years and the coin accounted for a whopping 90 percent of the world's gold coin market. The Krugerrand's moniker represents the synthesis of two words: Kruger and rand. Kruger is the surname of Boer statesman, Paul Kruger, who is pictured on the obverse side of the coin. Rand is the name of a unit of South Africa's currency. An interesting bit of trivia about the South Africa 1 oz gold Krugerrand coin is that a number of Western nations actually barred its import back in the 1970s and 1980s as it was associated with South Africa's apartheid government. Once apartheid ended in 1994, the ban was lifted.
Krugerrands have not been produced at exactly the same level each and every year across the past half century. This varied level of production only adds to the coin's value in monetary terms and as a keepsake. In the late 1960s, about 40,000 Krugerrands were minted. By 1970, over 200,000 were produced. In the mid 1970s, an excess of one million coins were produced. Fast forward to the late 1970s and six million were generated. However, the South Africa 1 oz gold Krugerrand coin's production decreased to a little over 23,000 in the late 1990s. Production levels have jumped since the beginning of the new millennium yet they have not returned to the levels reached before the era of international sanctions.
This stunning gold coin was initially produced as a means of allowing citizens to own gold. Unlike just about every other bullion coin of its era, the Krugerrand was anointed with the status of legal tender. Its official status as currency is why the coin was minted in an extremely formidable copper gold alloy. Today, the South Africa 1 oz gold Krugerrand coin is commonly given as a gift from one South African to another. All in all, 46 million ounces worth of gold can be found in Krugerrand coins today. The coin is available in three unique sizes with ½ ounce worth of pure gold, ¼ ounce of pure gold and 1/10 ounce of pure gold.
The Krugerrand measures 2.84 mm in thickness and has a diameter of 32.77. Its weight is 1.0909 troy ounces, which equates to 33.93 g. Its source of minting is gold alloy of 91.57 percent purity. This gold alloy equates to 22 karats or 31.1035 g of gold. The other 8.33 percent of the coin's weight is copper alloy (2.826 g). The presence of copper makes the coin appear a bit more orange in color compared to most gold coins made with silver alloy. One of the primary benefits of using copper alloy is that it is extremely rigid. You can drop the coin, pick it up and it will likely be free of dents as well as scratches.
The coin's namesake is derived from the famous Boer statesman, Paul Kruger. He served as the president of the South African Republic for four terms. Kruger's image was illustrated by Otto Schultz. The back of the coin displays one of South Africa's most cherished national symbols, the springbok. The coin's springbok was designed by artist Coert Steynberg. Other Krugerrand coin features include inscriptions in English and Afrikaans of the gold content as well as the words, “South Africa”. Coin collectors and historians will find it interesting to know that the springbok was also pictured on the obverse side of a South African 5 shilling coin that predates the Krugerrand. Collectors will also be intrigued by the fact that Germiston's Rand Refinery Limited owns the rights to the word “Krugerrand”.

More recently, however, dentists have begun to rely on 3D imaging techniques and i-CAT® scans to provide them with a detailed view of the mouth and skull. The advantage that 3D imaging holds over regular dental x-rays is that the bone structure, bone density, tissues, and nerves can be viewed clearly.
Dental implants are the most sophisticated replacement for missing teeth but have historically proven to be time-consuming to place. i-CAT® scans vastly reduce the time it takes to implant teeth. It is thought that in the near future, implants will be placed in a single visit because of this unique type of imaging. | 2019-04-22T12:10:57 | https://www.thedentalgroup.com/procedures/cleanings-prevention/i-cat%C2%AE-3d-imaging/ |
To be Honest the biggest thing I was looking forward to in 2018 was to be admitted by the Copperbelt University( not any other university), study Medicine and Surgery and get a one hundred percent Government scholarship. Looking at these desires if you live in Zambia you can say I was so specific with what I wanted, because other universities offer medicine and Surgery and the government offers 75% and 50% scholarships too. In short all I wanted was the best to come out , for this reason I picked the word BEST for the year 2018.
By God’s grace the year 2018 began and I had already applied at the Copperbelt University waiting for the admission list. To keep reminding myself that the best is coming this year, I wrote inside the cover page of my notebook the word ‘BEST’. Two months down the line the admission list came out and my name appeared on the list , I was so excited that Atleast one of the things I was looking forward to this year had happened. After the admission list came out my friend told me since I wanted to study medicine and Surgery the student portals are now open for School of Medicine applications. I prayed to God, went on my portal and applied .
One month later, I heard a rumour that those who have been admitted to study medicine and Surgery at the Copperbelt University from those who applied, their portals are now reflecting. To be clear I asked around and to my shock the rumour was true . I was so nervous to check because I had left no room for a no especially with the word I picked for the year. Two days later while at work( oh yeah I even got a job thats another Testimony the best was beyond my expectations)I gained some courage and dragged myself to check. When I opened my portal OMG! GUESS WHAT? I was admitted I was so excited I shouted to an extent one of my workmate asked what was going on.
Days later the government called on students who were admitted by the Copperbelt University to apply for government scholarship. I was nervous because the process was long and demanding since I had no option I went through the process and my application was successful. Months later it was announced on our national broadcasting Channel that the list of successful applicant who have been offered scholarships will be released in one of the local newspapers the next day . I was nervous again because I only expected the best. The next day the list was released, I never bought the newspaper to prevent emotional drama😂. While at work I logged in on my WhatsApp just to find a text “I HAVE SEEN YOUR NAME IN THE NEWSPAPER.” I was extremely super super excited and when I checked my portal I was offered a one hundred percent Government scholarship. Isn’t God Awesome?
I was so overwhelmed by joy and I was so grateful because the Lord had been so faithful to me even though I didn’t deserve it but by his Grace he made a way for me. I am sharing this Testimony today because Steven Furtick just said “pick a word for the coming year ” again in one of his recent sermon and I have already done that . If God did it for me he will do it for you too… follow the following links to watch the sermon and pick your word for 2019! | 2019-04-19T14:40:32 | https://genesismwamba.wordpress.com/2018/12/27/testimony-word-for-the-coming-year/ |
The platform economy is growing rapidly. More and more Software Ecosystems are emerging. As a result, several companies are faced with the question of how they can build up and establish an ecosystem. Software Ecosystems are much more complex than software systems. The technological, business and legal implications are far more difficult to understand if products and services have to be designed across companies. In more than 20 ecosystem projects, we have repeatedly encountered challenges in the conception and modelling of such ecosystems. This leads us to develop a method, the so called "Tangible Ecosystem Design“, that promotes the cooperation between stakeholders in the definition, design and analysis of a Software Ecosystem with the help of Playmobil® toys in an workshop context. In this contribution, we present the method and discuss our findings and experiences in the application in real world projects. | 2019-04-21T23:14:31 | http://nordichi2018.org/node/95 |

I love Wednesdays. It's hump day. The middle of the week. And I have choir practice on Wednesday nights which I love. And then I get to come home and watch American Idol - which I love! Tonight was extra fun because Julie and I ate at chili's with four of our 10th grade DNOW girls before choir and youth church. They are such sweet girls and it was their idea! I can't believe they wanted to eat with old women but they did. They make me feel young and old all at the same time. Aren't they CUTE?????
Okay - haven't watched the girls yet (thank you DVR!) but my favorite guys are little precious David, the Australian, the guy with dreadlocks and the rock guy who has some red streaks in his spiky hair (kind of reminds me a little of Chris Daughtry). Obviously I have not learned all their names yet but I am just an American Idol FREAK!
Update: So the girls were pretty good. My favorites are the Carrie Underwood #2, sweet Brooke and the little asian girl - Ramiele - I just want to put her in my pocket she is so cute.
I mean it's like she has a bleach blond bob with a black wig on top? It freaks me out and I just don't like her at all. I don't like Carly either. I guess I'm just not into girl rockers. And also - did anyone else think that Paula was wearing a bad wig tonight?
I know what you mean about feeling young and old at the same time! My husband and I teach a newly married Sunday School class at our church and I love those girls so much. I feel like they are my friends and we have the best time together, but they are so much younger than me!!
You are so fun, Kelly! I know your DNOW girls must just love you!!! And I heart Wednesdays too!!
Who are you calling old...???!!! :) I just love those girls so much!
I especially like the guy with the dreadlocks!
Just wanted to let you know I made the cupcakes tonight and they are the bomb! My nieces were over and they LOVED them! Thanks for the great recipe! Also, I thought you had a chicken and veggie recipe on your blog that you said you fix a lot?? I can't find it and it looked yummy. Hope you are having a great day!!
I don't blame them for wanting to hang out with you! When are you coming to LR? We need to get together!!!
I am making the cupcakes next week when Jamie, R & A are here visiting.
So far, this season has the best group of finalist as far as talent goes..
Where does she come up with the comments? I mean, she told one of the guys "Don't be afraid to be courageous" Where did that come from???
And someone please teach her how to clap! She looks like a seal waiting for someone to throw a raw fish into her mouth! I keep thinking Simon is going to throw a beach ball up and see if she can balance it on her nose!!!
I'm with you on that hair.......it's a little freaky.
My husband and I have been trying to figure out how her hair happens - bleach and wig must be it! I can't wait to tell him I have solved the mystery!
Amanda Overmyer is from my home town!!! She does look a little scary but she is growing on me!!
Of course they invited you girls to eat with them....you all are so fun!!!!!!!!
Bless that girls heart...the one with the hair... I haven't watched A.I. so I am just now getting introduced to her. does she have a good voice??
You are amazing! How do you have time to do all that you do! What a mentor you are to those younger girls.
I wish I had a DVR!!!!!!!!!!!
The AI guys really disappointed me Tuesday night, so I didn't even watch the girls lastnight. And I'm a huge Big Brother fan. Did you DVR BB? I'll start faithfully watching AI when the numbers get lower.
Paula's hair....talk about BAD hair day. It's either totally in her eyes or like last night, flat to her head. The comments are too drawn out, like she can't remember what she wanted to say, and then that clap, I agree...seal like!
Hi! I love your blog and I can't remember whose I found it from or I would give them credit. ;) My hubby and I are totally into American Idol also! I was so bummed that I had to work last night & missed it! Guess I'll have to catch up via the website. Have a blessed day!
I am so glad that someone else is bothered by her hair!! Everytime I see her, I tell my husband, "I can't look at her and take her seriously, that hair is insane!!" Hopefully they will have some stylist intervene!!
Hey! Love the pic from Chili's! Of course those girls would want to hang out with ya'll!!
Sorry that I tagged you and you had already done that list! Oops! I followed your link and loved reading it though. I hate talking on the phone too. I even get my husband to call and make DR appointments while he is at work and I'm at home! I just hate it for some reason!
I haven't watched AI this season at all, but seeing that girl's hair, I just might have to check it out! :) I know the young girls must really admire you. Fun dinner!
Ya'll look so cute! What a great opportunity you have in those girls lives. They'll remember you forever.
I'm trying my best to boycott American Idol this year. We'll see if I can hold to that.
That's great that you and Julie had fun with the youth girls! How fun! EEEK about that contestant's hair! It is disturbing!
That hair is freaky-licios!! Horrible!!! Oh, how I would love to get my hands on it!!
I can't agree with you more about AI's "rocker chicks" - weird - and not my style either! I'm glad your keeping us posted on your thoughts - and it's fun to read the other comments! Yay for Kelly!!
her hair is o.o.c. (out-of-control!) and i am happy to say that our dog and baby get along so well. thanks for asking, you are too sweet!
It IS a blond whack-a-'do with a black wig. At first I thought maybe it was due to her car wreck, b/c she did say she had staples in her head... so I'm sure it messed up her hair... but then I saw in her audition, it was just as crazy. I could deal with blonde and black hair... but a wig that isn't pulled down all the way? That is just weird.
THANK YOU! It is just horrible! | 2019-04-24T07:48:59 | http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/2008/02/i-heart-wednesday.html |

Distinctness (uniqueness, separateness) usually facilitates greater intimacy rather than distracts from it. Couples often think a relationship needs more “glue” (togetherness, common interests, more time together) when, in fact, a relationship might be better served by each person finding a more interesting, more adventurous, a more distinct individual life.
If you cannot be distinct and have the necessary self-awareness to be alone, it is unlikely you will be able to withstand the togetherness-pressures of a truly powerful, intimate, equal, and respectful relationship. He or she who cannot hold his or her own without a partner, will feel overpowered, overcrowded, or consumed when in an equal, respectful, intimate relationship. This is true unless he or she, in the name of love, gets lost in the relationship and “disappears”. Under such circumstances the “weaker” party will experience the relationship as a take-over rather than as a shared, mutual, adventure.
1. Express your opinion even if it is contrary to what your partner expects or wants to hear.
2. State what you want and don’t want even if it places stress on the relationship you have.
3. Maintain many and diverse non-romantic friendships.
4. Pursue interests outside of your romantic relationship even if your significant other has no interest in the same endeavors. | 2019-04-20T00:17:53 | https://difficultrelationships.com/2010/10/17/a-counter-intuitive-map-to-greater-intimacy/ |

The best thing that I love about the dress, apart from the fabulous dust-pink color, is the ruffled design that adds playfulness to the attire. Style it right with belted and ruffled Bardot dusty pink dress . The sassy style of the dress makes it a versatile outfit that I can wear on many occasions. The flattering off-shoulder style is in fashion these days and when it comes to one great outfit of today’s trend, having such a beautiful dress with the feature of latest fashion is a pleasure that one should not miss.

No doubt we live in a super technological era. And it’s a blessing. It’s what drives all the mankind forward into the future. But in some way, as every coin has two sides, it’s also a curse. Technology is making our lives easier in many ways, but also turns us to be quite dependent on it. It is changing the way we live, influencing the way we behave, altering the way we think. And if by “we” I mean mostly iY, Y and even X generations. You can only imagine the implications it will have on our children.

Star Ratings Australia encourages Australian travellers to go star tripping on their next break by launching a series of star rated itineraries as part of its 2016 integrated marketing campaign.
Star Ratings are an internationally recognised symbol for quality accommodation standards, used in more than 70 countries around the world. Star Ratings help Australian travellers make the right accommodation choice for them, ensuring the accommodation they expect is the accommodation they get.
There are a variety of three, four and five star itineraries that have been developed for a range of different types of getaways, from outdoors and adventure through to luxury and indulgence. A number of these itineraries will be brought to life using cutting edge 360-degree video technology to demonstrate how Star Ratings provides travellers with the full picture.
star-tripping.com.au focuses on building fresh and engaging content that will educate consumers about the benefits of independent reviewing in the travel industry. To help consumers better understand Star Ratings there is also an opportunity to test your star knowledge and win a tropical getaway by playing our unique Star Strike game.
The 2016 campaign, led by Horizon Communication Group, is highly digital and will be seen across a number of digital platforms including Pandora.
‘I am thrilled to be a part of this campaign and to launch the interactive itineraries for Star Tripping. As we now have so many choices it is incredibly helpful to have a benchmark to help us narrow these down. I think Star Ratings Australia is crucial in helping the travel industry to maintain authenticity and accountability,” said Catriona Rowntree.
“We are very excited to have launched Star Tripping. With widespread social media and self-ratings currently dominating the travel industry, independent ratings systems like Star Ratings are crucial for maintaining authenticity and accountability which is what Star Tripping aims to educate consumers about,’ commented CEO of Star Ratings Australia Michael Reed.
Star Ratings Australia is the leading independent accommodation accreditation scheme in Australia. The scheme uses ‘star’ symbols which are a licensed trademark and are an internationally recognised symbol for quality accommodation standards that are used in more than 70 countries worldwide.
The ‘star’ symbol reflects the cleanliness, quality and condition of guest facilities and provides a trusted and reliable rating that can only be used by properties who have been licensed to use them by Australian Motoring Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Australian Auto Clubs.
The Star Ratings scheme enjoys a long and distinguished heritage with the Australian Auto Clubs, dating back to the 1950s when the clubs first started assessing accommodation on behalf of their members. | 2019-04-25T04:43:27 | http://www.jetsettersblog.com/blog/adventure-travel/australia-star-tripping/ |

Is it time to re-think the shape of the school year?
Now that the Easter holiday has ended for schools that continued the traditional pattern (a week before Easter and a week after) this year, it may be time to look again at the pattern of the school year.
Because of the late Easter, around half of schools this year started the summer term on the day after Easter Bank Holiday Monday.
Schools opting for the traditional pattern were given an extra day off on Tuesday 2 May as they would otherwise have missed out on the bonus of the Royal Wedding bank holiday. They returned to school on 3 May.
For these schools, the first half of the summer term will be just 18 working days. Even for schools returning immediately after the Easter weekend, this crucial half-term for final exam preparation will be only 24 working days.
The school year is 38 weeks for the pupils, 39 for the teachers. Both long terms and short terms are very disruptive to learning patterns, so it would surely be sensible to divide the pupil year up more evenly, creating a better rhythm for the year. An obvious division would be into two ‘terms’ of seven weeks each (in the autumn up to Christmas) and four ‘terms’ of six weeks each.
Had that been the case in 2011, the terms after Christmas (terms 3 and 4 in new-speak) would have been 4 January to 11 February and 21 February to 1 April. Term 5 would then have started on 18 April, with long weekends off for Easter and May Day, providing six weeks of learning before the Whitsun break.
The year 2011 has been exceptional in that Easter Day has fallen on 24 April, just one day before the latest possible Easter date. Two years ago, Easter was as early as it can be – a full month earlier than Easter 2011. It is no wonder that the Christian calendar plays havoc with school term dates.
The situation may get worse, especially for parents with children at different schools. One of the freedoms of being an academy is that the governing body can decide the shape of the school year, including the dates of holidays and terms. With potentially thousands of academies, holiday dates could become chaotic.
There is something to be said for the French system of nationally directed school holidays, with the North, Middle and South of France taking co-ordinated turns in having earlier and later breaks in order not to put too much pressure on the holiday industry at key times, such as the February break when many French families like to go skiing. One year the North has the first of the three possible weeks, the Middle the next and the South the last; and they take turns in a nationally planned three-year cycle.
I was a member of the Local Government Association Commission on the Organisation of the School Year, which reported in 2000. Press reports at the time include these from the Independent and the Times Educational Supplement.
The rhythm of the school year – and it has a rhythm to it – is important to learning. The length of the summer holiday and the very long term from September to Christmas, with a break of only one week, each creates its own problems.
Recent research from the government links slower progress in the autumn term among primary age pupils to the long summer holiday “requiring pupils to retain their learning from the previous academic year over several weeks away from school.” So a break of five weeks, instead of six, would be an improvement.
November and early December are often difficult times for school discipline, with more strained relationships between tired teachers and tired pupils. A two-week break in October, as is already the case in some parts of the country, would be a great improvement.
Some problems cannot be solved. Holiday dates in the Isle of Man are dictated by the dates of the TT races, those inNorthern Irelandby the long summer marching season. But it is time that the rest of us moved on from the 19th century agrarian calendar that has dominated the school year to something more sensible. | 2019-04-19T08:41:11 | https://johndunfordconsulting.co.uk/2011/05/ |

We have exceptional trainers in our clubs that are eager to see their clients achieve their health and fitness goals. They recognize that not everyone's vision "before" and "after" includes weight loss. Our personal trainers view each of their clients as individuals, and customize the workouts to suit your individual needs. We've been introducing you to our top trainers this month, and want to continue be telling your more about Justin Carley, a personal trainer at our Orangevale club.
"Goals are nice, but fall in love with the process!" 29 year old Justin encourages his clients. Los Angeles is his hometown, but this guy was actually in his senior year at UC Berkeley when he realized he'd fallen in love with fitness. "I actually decided practicing law was not what I wanted to do," he confesses. While he intends to return to school to become a physical therapist one day, personal training felt like just the right bridge between pre-law and physical therapy.
Hands down, Justin's favorite thing about being a personal trainer is the relationships he's been able to develop with his clients. He loves spending time with clients and having the opportunity to share in their fitness journey. It's been especially rewarding for him to experience their non-scale victories, he notes, "Like off diabetes medications, having chronic pain resolved, even surgical recoveries going better than the doctor expected because of increased strength and activity."
Justin admits that he doesn't play favorites when it comes to gym equipment. "I’m not married to any particular 'tool' of the gym, but picking a good 'tool' for the best workout is more of what gets me pumped."
When he's not working with clients at Cal Fit, Justin calls himself a simple guy and--believe it or not--a bookworm. He loves being outdoors, especially if swimming and hiking are included. And Justin is a foodie--he really enjoys trying new food and drinks.
If you'd like a trainer who can discuss your latest read and help you get healthier than ever before, Justin Carley may be the perfect fit. If you'd like to set up a training session with him, please email Orangevale-Fitness-MGMT@calfamfit.com. (Make sure you state that you'd like to train with Justin in your email). | 2019-04-19T08:46:20 | https://thedaily.californiafamilyfitness.com/meet-the-trainer-justin |
At the iShares Cup event, in Hy�res, Marian Martin asked several multihull sailors "What do you think about the America's Cup being contested in multihulls.
I�ve mixed feeling about it. I�m also a sailing journalist and I love drama and I think the Cup�s always had drama, on and off the water. So, to me, this is another extension of that and it�s a fantastic story. On the other hand, being British I�m rather disappointed, because I think we were in good shape with Origin. I�m a big fan of Sir Keith Mills; I worked with him on 2012 and I really think he would have made a big difference, so I feel really sorry for all those people who were involved in Origin, because now they�re in no mans land and don�t know where to go, or what to do. They were just gaining momentum and there was a bit of good feeling about it in the country.
Also, I�d love it to stay in Europe. I�m not saying that, if Oracle won they would take it to the States, but there�s always that chance and I think it�s better for Britain if it stays in Europe; it would certainly be easier to get sponsorship.
It will be good for the sport and I think it will be a bit of a technical battle. I don’t suppose it will continue in multis, but I’d like to see it in something a bit more exciting than the boats we had last time. I don’t agree with those who say the tactical side will be lost in fast boats. I think the multi match will be more tactical; OK the tactics will be different, but it’s still a case of if you get it right, you get it right.
Whatever happens I think it�s best it stays in Europe.
Oracle�s got two boats, Alinghi�s got two boats in the iShares Cup, Origin�s got a boat, so for us it was the best thing that ever happened. All of a sudden we got Alinghi in the circuit, which is huge value for us and having Team Origin here as well makes a good platform to attract sponsors; having Sir Keith Mills on the boat, racing in Lugano, really raised the profile of the event. On the other hand, if you think about the sailing side of the America's Cup, it�s made things very difficult; there�s a lot of people out of work, a lot of uncertainty, so people don�t know what to do. One thing we should not forget though, is that the America�s Cup has always been about this sort of stuff. It�s been �How can I win that Cup?� and �How can I outsmart the others?� from whenever the first one was, back in the 1850s, that�s what the challenge was always about. The good thing about this America�s Cup, is that I think there will be big, big opportunities for sponsors, because it will be an America�s Cup that will never be forgotten. Everyone remembers the one in �88, when the catamaran beat the big monohull. Everyone still knows that was Stars and Stripes, with Dennis Conner and everyone remembers the date, but nobody remembers about Fremantle, or Auckland, or Newport. They don�t know the dates and they don�t remember specific boats anymore and that�s why it�s a golden opportunity for sponsors to hook onto this America�s Cup. It�s probably going to be relatively short, but it�s definitely going to be one that will be remembered forever.
As a catamaran sailor, I would love to see the America�s Cup continue to be in multihulls, but I know a little bit about match racing and I think it�s very difficult to go match racing in catamarans. The biggest difference between match racing a catamaran and match racing a monohull is that the range of a monohull is completely different. If you sail a monohull upwind, you can�t gain a lot of percentage by sailing it faster, it doesn�t work. You always go for the same sort of height, sometimes you try to gain a bit, but it�s just marginal stuff; with a catamaran, if you point 3 to 4 degrees lower, you get a big speed increase. That�s why it�s going to be a very difficult thing, which the America�s Cup guys would find out, if they were to have identical boats. You can go very fast and not go too high, or you can go very high and a bit slower, so there�s a big range you can go through.
On the other hand, I think this America�s Cup will be about the design of the boat and I believe that, at the moment, there�s so much still in the air to be decided, like which venue, that the first one to build a boat and come out with it will have a disadvantage. So, it�s a difficult thing, at the moment, to judge who is likely to win. It�s hard to say who I�d like to win; when you have two good customers you�d like them both to win. They are both doing a good job for us, by being involved with the Extreme 40, so I don�t have an preference, but I think for sailing in general it will be good if it stays in Europe. That said, the America�s Cup will go wherever the America�s Cup gets put and, at the end of the day, the people with the money decide where the America�s Cup will go. If Oracle wins, it might go to San Francisco, but they might keep it in Spain; if Alinghi wins I think it will stay in Spain, but you never really know what�s behind the scenes and the politics. For us, as catamaran sailors, it�s great that we have an America�s Cup using multihulls.
I�ve competed in two America�s Cups and I don�t think multihulls are good boats for match racing. Even when we were doing the Faberg� Cup and whatever else, we always felt that - even in the monohulls - the faster boats, the planing boats took a lot of the skill away from the match race. We liked going to Bermuda, for instance, and racing slow boats. It�s sad; multihulls are cool, but they�re not match racing boats.
They need to get back on track, but I�m not sure which of them is most likely to do that. I don�t read any of their news releases, they�re rubbish; if I�m reading something about sailing in general and come to something about the America�s Cup, I just skip over it. They are so far off track; you can only hope they get back into a position where everyone can get on with it. Years ago, the America�s Cup was a sporting event, with very relaxed rules; now it�s business. They need to get back to the spirit there was at the beginning and that�s not business.
For me it’s exciting, but I’m not sure it’s good for the America’s Cup. The last Cup had more events and we had close match racing and that was really good. This race in big multihulls will be boring; one of the boats will be faster than the other and that will be it.
The only interesting thing is that we are going to see new technology, new ideas and that is good. What could be nice would be more teams in the same sort of multihulls, that might be an idea for the 34th, either that or back to real match racing. I’m not sure it will happen, right now it seems that each one is trying to find the best solution for himself to win the Cup …….. like always.
I hope that, after this Cup, they will sit together and work out the future of the Cup and see that it goes the right way, at least for the next couple of events.
I’ve read something about it and I think … why not? I don’t understand completely what is happening, it seems very complicated, but the idea is very interesting for someone like me who is passionate about multihulls.
I think though that a very big multihull may not be good for this sort of racing. To take IDEC from maximum speed on one tack to the other is 1 or 2 minutes, though it would be faster with a crew, but that is not the real problem. When you have a 60 foot multihull, it turns like this (Francis traces a curve on the ground) and, when you have a 90 foot multihull, it is like this (Francis traces a longer curve). So, I think for this event maybe a smaller multihull could be more efficient; it will circle faster, it will turn faster, so maybe 60 feet can beat 90 feet in the America�s Cup.
In addition to stories in this 33rd America's Cup section, you can read stories from the 32nd America's Cup .
You will also find some older stories and interviews, from the last event, HERE.
I'm a big fan of Sir Keith Mills and I think he would have made a big difference.
I don’t agree with those who say the tactical side will be lost in fast boats.
The good thing about this America’s Cup, is that I think there will be big, big opportunities for sponsors.

The NRA didn’t oppose a bill in Washington State that calls for the seizure of guns from domestic violence perpetrators when restraining orders are issued. It passed both houses by a unanimous vote. I’m in shock and speechless.
In Washington, 25% of domestic violence homicides are committed by a perpetrator who has been served with a restraining order but got to keep the murder weapon. Everybody knows these guys are a credible threat, but nobody takes their guns. Been there. In fact, almost every victim of a domestic violence homicide in Washington has sought help and come away empty. Been there too.
It’s a paranoid myth that we need guns to protect ourselves from strangers. We’re more likely to be killed by someone we know and love who uses our own gun to murder us. You can go ahead and tell yourself whatever you want to believe. I’m pretty sure that Adam Lanza’s mother agreed with you until the moment she woke up to see her own gun pointed at her head. It was too late then for her to adjust her paranoid beliefs. She’s dead. He is too. And, so are 26 other people.
I’m damned proud of my state legislature today.
Wow. This is great news! I am surprised too. Divorcing an abuser who has (and still is) litigating us into poverty and no one seems to think its irrational or unusual. He’s lost his job, the house is in foreclosure and he files ridiculous motions seeking my jailing. Given this tolerance, you gotta figure a lot of people wouldn’t take guns from abusers either. They have rights you know!
Looking for common sense and so glad to see some!
I hear you, Mia. I too am in shock.
Sorry to hear about the litigation abuse you have experienced. You are a member of a club that has way too many members, and none of use want to be in it. | 2019-04-24T02:56:57 | https://annecarolinedrake.com/2014/03/07/holy-crap-wa-state-passed-a-law-to-seize-guns-from-dv-perps/ |
BREAKING NEWS, yet another guy is sent forth into the wilderness to preach the gospel. We also have a brief discussion of blood moons and Stargate SG-1, because astronomy is cool. A measly seven drinks, or approximately one beer.
Loved the mini-episode. Short and sweet, and I like that you did your homework.
Thank you! It was my very first attempt at solo recording/editing/uploading and I was incredibly nervous about it. I’d been sort of fretting that it was too frivolous.
I always thought Parley looked a little bit like Dan Aykroyd, at least in some pictures.
In my professional opinion, they look like confused dudes with combovers.
Gotta ask, though, are these guys recognizable to people raised in the church? Are their portraits hung in church foyers or something?
No, these guys are too minor to get portraits in the foyer. Joseph Smith and maybe other church presidents might get that treatment, but in the last twenty years or so, the church has made a conscious effort to keep artwork in churches Jesus-centric (I guess to counter criticism that they’re “not really Christians”, as if this changed anyone’s opinion), so even they don’t show up there too often anymore. But pictures of the old church leaders are all over lesson manuals and such, so yes, they’re recognizable to a lot of Mormons.
Besides, I just like posting pictures here. | 2019-04-21T00:37:56 | https://mybookofmormonpodcast.com/2016/07/11/episode-116-dc-34/ |

Sometimes a picture says a thousand facts. Tired of climate change being discussed in dry facts and figures, photographer Nick Bowers decided to take an emotive approach to climate change by capturing the frightened faces of those most in the know – climatologists.
Supported by a short interview with each expert, the portraits are a striking reminder that global warming is incredibly alarming and just as telling as any IPCC report.
Climate Science underestimated the pace of climate change, it was too conservative. We’re now having far more rapid change than originally projected. Change that if not slowed, will undoubtedly affect my children and my grandchildren.
There is genuine potential for a change in climate to disrupt our global civilisation. If that happens, we know human nature has a dark side, people will fight over an ever diminishing resource pool, and that is a future we want to avoid.
This decade is critical, it is our last chance to prevent our children from that type of world. We have to make significant progress and get the global emissions trajectory turning downwards. That is the urgent task at hand.
The climate is related to many parts of the Earth; the land, the ocean, the ice, the atmosphere. We’re noticing abrupt changes in all of these areas.
We’ll reach a point where we’ll lose control over the system. Right now, if we reduce our emissions, we can probably stabilise the system. If we push the climate too far, if we start losing ice too rapidly, start flipping things like the Amazon, then the internal dynamics of the climate will take over – and even if we pull emissions back, we won’t be able to stop very large changes – that’s my biggest fear.
The thing people don’t realise, is getting emissions down is not only feasible but economically promising and will actually lead to a better life. The narrative needs to change, it’s not all doom and gloom. Yes, it will be another massive transformation in human history, but it will lead to a cleaner environment, to more jobs, and an easier lifestyle.
We still have a chance to pull back climate change, but we need to act vigorously and we need to act soon.
My work on the potential impacts of climate change on species and ecosystems has made it clear that the human species is now threatened.
We need to acknowledge the time lag between what we do to the atmosphere and its impacts on the climate. What we do now, affects the climate decades into the future. This means we need to drastically cut our emissions, now and forever, to stabilise the climate in the second half of the century.
If you think these facts are frightening, help us change them.
As the background climate warms due to human activity, this increases the frequency and intensity of hot temperature events. I am concerned about how the very broad and damaging impacts of heatwaves will affect human health, infrastructure, agriculture, and natural systems. By the time we realise we need to make changes and start to put these changes in place, it might not be enough to balance out the range of catastrophes we will be facing.
Accelerated warming and expansion of water in the oceans, and increased melting rates of glaciers and ice caps are expected to increase sea levels by a metre or more over the next 100 years. This will pose a decisive threat to the existence of human settlements, infrastructures and industries across the world that are close to the shore lines. Those environmental degradations will aggravate global conflict as tens of millions of people migrate and their food supplies become threatened.
We need to understand that the cost of solving the problem is so much less than the cost of dealing with it down the track; that cost is going to be huge for future generations. Not dealing with it is selfish, short-sighted, narrow minded and obscene. It represents such a level of injustice as those that are going to be impacted are not playing a role in the decisions that are being made now.
We’ve recorded all sorts of climate change shifts in multiple areas. However, the scientific process is consistent. Every single individual study that has been done, has gone through the same rigorous process, data collection, research analysis, and qualified peer review. At the moment, we’ve at least 10 000 different papers, completed over 20 years, each using different data sets, and they are all coming to the same climate change conclusions. We’ve a weight of evidence that the average person is simply not aware of – and this frightens me.
I’d like to think that we’re not going to reach the projected four degrees of warming this century; because I can’t even imagine what that would look like. 80 years is not that long, and unless we act soon, my seven year old daughter will probably have to live through that.
IPCC predicts that the impacts of climate change will be catastrophic. This affects everybody. Nobody is safe. We’re going to lose low lying countries, there will be a loss of live stock, potential wide spread famine and species extinction.
One thing people need to remember, is that scientists are the biggest skeptics on Earth. We’re constantly trying to disprove each other. This is the one thing we agree on. The evidence is endless. We’re not making this up, this is really serious, we’re very concerned and there’s not enough being done about it. We really need to be pushing our governments. Let’s not look back and regret what we’ve done.
The scientific community know sea levels will rise, people will be displaced and food resources will diminish. But I work on the small things, the ocean’s plankton, and we are already seeing climate shifts in these organisms. How those changes will affect the global ocean is something we really can’t answer – and that scares me. For example, the fact that we’re seeing tropical species all the way down the east coast of Australia, means massive changes are occurring. However, we currently can’t predict the exact impact of these shifts.
Another example is that climate change will create winners and losers, there’ll be some species that get wiped out and some that will become prolific. Will it be the toxic algal species that are going to survive?
There will come a time when we need to have answers, when these changes will greatly challenge humanity. | 2019-04-24T14:57:56 | http://climatechangepsychology.blogspot.com/2014/08/portraits-of-scared-scientists-reveal-truth-about-climate-change.html |

Below are weather averages from 1971 to 2000 according to data gathered from the nearest official weather station. The nearest weather station for both precipitation and temperature measurements is ROUND GR which is approximately 18 miles away and has an elevation of 4,888 feet (56 feet lower than Bieler Ranch). Because the nearest station and this geographic feature may have differences in elevation and topography, the historic weather at the two separate locations may be different as well. | 2019-04-24T04:58:10 | https://www.anyplaceamerica.com/directory/or/klamath-county-41035/locales/bieler-ranch-1117575/ |
