DENVER — Tuesday, April 22, 2014 — Gov. John Hickenlooper will join Estes Park officials, community leaders and business owners on Wednesday to celebrate the land purchase for the new Anschutz Health & Wellness Center in Estes Park.
WHEN: 3 p.m., Wednesday, April 23, 2014
WHERE: 333 E. Wonderview Ave., Estes Park (open land just east of the Stanley Hotel)
Background: On April 1, Estes Park voters approved the sale of Lot 4 (6.88 acres of public land) to Grand Heritage Hotel Group LLC and Estes Park Medical Center for $1.325 million. This property sale paves the way to move forward with plans to build an Anschutz Health & Wellness Center at the Stanley Hotel -- a public-private partnership that brings together medical research from the University of Colorado’s Anschutz Health & Wellness Center, medical expertise and staff from the Estes Park Medical Center, and hospitality industry marketing and operations capabilities from the Grand Heritage Hotel Group.
This coalition will build a 15,000-square-foot wellness facility focused on physical fitness, metabolic fitness, nutritional fitness, sleep, stress and quality of life/life satisfaction. An adjacent 50-room boutique hotel designed to cater to wellness center guests and their families and a new professional housing building is also part of the project.

Irwin parking lot gains town approval
A 35-space gravel parking lot will become Irwin Park's newest accessory, following overwhelming town approval last week for a plan that Public Works Assistant Director Tiger Mann estimates will cost between $60,000 and $65,000.
"Adding the parking lot will enhance the property," Mann said in a presentation to the Planning and Zoning Commission last Tuesday evening. "Right now, people are parking haphazardly on the site. [They are] actually damaging the blacktop [and] ... especially The Great Lawn because we can't seem to regulate the way people are parking."
The new lot will be installed in the northeast quadrant of the park, to the right of the northern driveway between Weed Street and the barn. The lot, which will include granite curbs to prevent gravel scatter and two plantable islands to direct counter-clockwise traffic flow, will be partially screened around its south, east and southeast perimeters with trees and other plantings.
Greenery will help mask the view of the lot from the Weed Street, which is approximately 100 feet from the project site, Mann said.
"It wasn't the intention to screen it 100 percent from the road," Mann said. "We're mainly trying to break up the view of looking at a series of 35 cars in a lot."
The 35 parking spaces, along with the existing 22 along the horseshoe drive and the six at the main house, will inflate the total amount to parking to 63 spaces.
"The existing parking is adequate for the town offices, but during baseball games or larger sized events, we need additional parking," Mann said.
The lot will not be plowed in winter, Mann said.
The Park and Recreation Commission approved the plan in a vote of 8 to 1 last Monday and the P&Z voted unanimously to award the plan with a special permit last Tuesday.
Town Council gave the final go-ahead on the project last Wednesday in a vote of 9-2, with the added condition that Public Works members carefully assess the project's impact on drainage and adhere to the town's zero net runoff water policy.
The lot will be pervious, Mann said.
According to First Selectmen Jeb Walker, the entire park's net runoff ranks below the town's minimum drainage standard.
The parking lot will cost $55,000 to build, Mann approximates, and tree and shrub plantings included in the plan will cost an additional $5,000 to $10,000.
The Garden Club is considering pitching in to cover some of the cost for the plantings, Mann said.
Construction will last about two weeks, Mann said.
Next, the Board of Selectmen will decide whether to allow the contractor currently working on-site to take on the project or request multiple bids. The board will also decide whether the project will fit into the 2010 town budget.
"Our hope is to have it constructed before the baseball season ... [but] if we wait for the budget season, it will be July 1," Mann said. | https://www.newcanaannewsonline.com/news/article/Irwin-parking-lot-gains-town-approval-298799.php | 2018-10-15T17:47:28 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Man Charged In Fatal Nashville Hotel Shooting
Two suspects have been arrested in connection with a deadly shooting at a Nashville hotel.
Lawrence Sails
D’Twaun Moore
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - A man has been charged with criminal homicide in connection with a fatal shooting at a Nashville hotel.
The incident happened around 7:30 p.m. Thursday at the Raven Hotel on Brick Church Pike.
Metro Nashville Police officers were already at the hotel when they heard the shots. Witnesses told police that Lawrence Sails shot 24-year-old D’Twaun Moore and then fled into room 219, where he resides.
The 57-year-old suspect was taken into custody shortly after the shooting.
Police said Sails, who has prior drug possession and theft convictions, refused to be interviewed.
A gun was recovered from his room. The motive for the shooting remained under investigation. | https://www.newschannel5.com/news/1-killed-1-in-arrested-in-nashville-shooting | 2018-10-15T18:14:08 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

The Haryana government has directed municipalities not to accept CLU applications from any individual or company for projects with an investment of more than Rs 10 crore and involving a land area of more than one acre for the areas falling in conforming industrial zones of the published Final Development Plan.
A spokesman of the Urban Local Bodies Department said on Friday that in such cases, the applicant would be asked to apply online on the Haryana Enterprises Promotion Centre (HEPC) portal.
The BJP government in Haryana had earlier decentralised the system of approval of Change of Land Use applications. Before that all CLUs were approved at the highest level in Chandigarh, with allegations of corruption being levelled.
The CLU approvals, especially for residential, commercial and institutional projects, are considered significant in Haryana, especial in the National Capital Region (NCR) areas given the high property value there.
Hundreds of CLUs have been granted in districts like Gurugram (earlier Gurgaon) and Faridabad in the last few years. | https://www.newsfolo.com/india/haryana-no-clu-applications-of-over-rs-10-cr-to-be-accepted/33221/ | 2018-10-15T16:40:28 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

Ready, set, go: best spots to ride in Rotorua
Choosing the top mountain biking trails in Rotorua isn’t easy. Here are some of our top suggestions, renowned for their perfect dirt, great flow and views.
Family riding on The Dipper Trail in the Redwoods.
By RotoruaNZ.com
Riding the challenging mountain biking trails of Rotorua.
By Armin-Wurmser-Tina-Gerber
1 / 2
Rotorua has more than 145 kilometres of mountain biking trails to wow riders of every size and capability. Whether you’re a kid, just learning how to roll on the slopes or a pro with moves to impress the best in business, Rotorua has something for everyone. They don’t call Rotorua mountain biking haven for nothing!
Whakarewarewa Forest or as the locals call it - Redwoods
It’s one of the most established bike networks in the country, host to Crankworx that celebrates the best in this sport and generally a spectacular spot to be. Whakarewarewa is the epicentre of mountain biking in Rotorua and features rides to suit all abilities.
The forest is a sprawling mass of towering Californian Redwoods with views to swoon over. It boasts some of the best single track mountain biking trails in New Zealand and a network that is so vast that you can spend an entire day here without hitting the same trail twice!
The family-friendly and beginner trails are located in the lower reaches of the forest while the hardcore junkies and freestylers will find their thrills on the steeper and more technical slopes at the top of the forest.
Skyline Gravity Bike Park
Also a venue for Crankworx, Skyline Gravity Park is one of the most thrilling bike parks in New Zealand. It is New Zealand’s first gondola-assisted bike park and is open year-round. Featuring close to 30 trails, it offers UCI World Cup-worthy downhills to fun, flowy ‘groomer’ runs with smooth berms and jumps, and vertical drops.
The park provides trails for most skill levels with 8.5km of trails braiding down the side of Mt Ngongotaha. Sound exciting? It sure is!
Rainbow Mountain
A series of short tracks join to form the Rainbow Mountain MTB Loop. It is a gruelling 743 metres uphill ride to the summit, but the views from there are extraordinary. And, of course the fun begins only after. The top section is quite technical and challenging as you navigate through native bush. Then the track changes to flowing and fast, getting you to push harder and test your boundaries.
The end of the track gets you to Kerosene Creek for a swim in the naturally heated waters before you head to your next joyride.
Moerangi Track
A 35km adventure ride through pristine native forest. It is more suited for the more accomplished riders featuring Grade 3 trails that follow old trekking routes and past historic huts into complete wilderness.
The trail leads riders up to 1000m above sea level, before the well-deserved descent of 15km through epic native bush completes the journey – something out of the Jurassic era. As you’d expect of a forest ride, it’s a bit rough on the edges with the odd fallen tree or slip to accommodate along the way.
Western Okataina
This is a dual use track through the Lake Okataina Scenic Reserve can be ridden in either direction. Keep an eye out for beautiful vistas and lake views seen through the openings between clusters of trees. The trails are relatively ‘raw’ and require moderate fitness and skill to manoeuvre.
Be prepared and confident when riding the exhilarating downhill section down to the Outdoor Education Centre, but remember, there is a steep climb back up from the bottom.
There are many other adrenaline-pumping activities to explore in Rotorua, including the Rotorua Canopy Tours. Check us out! | https://www.newzealand.com/au/article/ready-set-go-best-spots-to-ride-in-rotorua/ | 2018-10-15T18:24:27 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

New Jersey has some of the highest electricity rates in the nation for commercial and industrial users, and costs continue to rise. Some companies are able to invest in alternative energy sources, like the installation of solar power panels. But many businesses cannot afford the hundreds of thousands of dollars such projects require.
Fortunately, there are many ways businesses can reduce their energy usage without paying for expensive renovations to their buildings or devoting a full-time energy manager to control costs. Some energy efficiency experts offer the following advice.
—What Your Company Can Do—
First, get your employees involved:
- What financial and staff resources do you already have and how could they be used to implement an energy efficiency and conservation strategy?
- Is there some knowledgeable person on your staff who could research ways to reduce energy consumption?
- Are there resources for getting outside help?
- Develop a strategic approach.Involving everyone can be as simple as reminding people to turn lights off when they leave a room and turning on the power-save option on equipment.
Second, form a “green team”, where possible:
- To help identify project areas and opportunities,
- Develop work plans, and
- Prepare for an official energy efficiency initiative launch or kickoff eventStaff from all departments and levels should be encouraged to be a part of the team. The projects considered might include raising/lowering the temperature a few degrees on programmable thermostats, installing automatic lighting controls or using mugs instead of paper/Styrofoam cups for coffee. Each workplace is different, but there are many solutions to consider for your worksite.
Third, evaluate your office’s energy usage:
• Establish a baseline to measure your energy needs and areas that could be made more efficient.
Gather your office utility bills and put together a picture of how much energy your company uses. Many utilities have comprehensive Websites for commercial and industrial customers that can show the historical usage (usually past 12 months) and help measure any changes in your consumption.
Energy audits are another tool to help evaluate where changes or upgrades could be beneficial. For manufacturers, the New Jersey Manufacturing Excellence Program provides free plant assessments and recommendations that improve energy efficiency and pollution prevention. For more information, visit. Often suppliers or energy efficiency providers will also provide a free or low-cost audit of a facility as well.
Fourth, take advantage of what’s free. Most people know the Energy Star label for appliances, but what about for buildings? Visit for practical guidebooks on making workplaces in your specific industry more energy efficient. Virtually any small business can improve its energy efficiency easily and cost-effectively using the many resources available from the US Environmental Protection Agency.
Finally, take advantage of government funding and programs. Commercial and industrial ratepayers contribute millions of dollars each year through a societal benefit charge (SBC) on their energy bills to pay for government- run energy programs. New Jersey’s Clean Energy Program offers commercial and industrial customers financial incentives, design support, and technical assistance to integrate energy efficient and renewable energy technologies into new construction, upgrades, and new cooling and heating equipment installations. For specific program information, visit. Many of the State programs, including the Smart Start building program, require prior approval before rebates or incentives are awarded.

We have all the details of the Radiohead frontman's contribution...
Radiohead‘s ‘This Mess We’re In’, specifically with Yorke in mind. She said of Yorke: “He just came over to the studio for a couple of days. He’s an extremely wonderful musician, he came up with some very unusual ideas for the songs. He’s just really inspiring. I learnt a lot from him.”
Yorke also sings on two more tracks, ‘Beautiful Feeling’ and ‘One Line’. Other track titles include ‘Big Exit’, ‘Kamikaze’ and ‘The Whores Hustle And The Hustlers Whore’.

The official attire of Austin's South by Southwest film and music festival might be cowboy boots and a cowboy hat, but at the 2012 edition it might as well be white shrimping boots and a New Orleans Saints cap. Because the only way this year's festival could get more of a Louisiana flavor is if it was soaked in liquid Zatarain's.
Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum's New Orleans-shot reimagining of "21 Jump Street" -- which gets premieres at SXSW tonight (and which opens in wide release Friday) - is probably the most high-profile of the locally linked films on tap. But by no means is it alone.
Withe first weekend of SXSW 2012 in the books, here's a quick sampling of what's being said about the Louisiana-linked films making noise at this year's fest, which started Friday (March 9) and continues through Sunday (March 17).
Huffington Post: SXSW premiere of "21 Jump Street" once more suggests Hollywood is starting to view the Austin festival as a launching-pad for comedies. The festival got the ball rolling on "Bridesmaids" build-up of popular support last year. So HuffPo wonders: Why can't it do the same for "21 Jump Street"? (You can read my full coverage of "21 Jump Street" including interviews with Hill and Tatum, here.)
New York Magazine: Actor-director-writer Mark Duplass is having a very busy 2012. Not only does the locally born and bred Duplass' New Orleans-shot comedy "Jeff Who Lives at Home" -- which he directed with his brother and filmmaking partner, Jay -- get a national release this coming Friday through Paramount, but the New Orleans-shot "Do-Deca Pentathlon" got its world premiere Sunday at SXSW (with additional screenings Monday, Tuesday and Friday), not to mention a distribution deal in the days prior.
Indiewire: "Safety Not Guaranteed" is a grounded, genuine oddly affected charmer. This little indie drama wasn't shot here but it does star local boy Mark Duplass - taking a break from directing duties, as he does on occasion - with Aubrey Plaza and Jake Johnson. Directed by Colin Trevorrow, it tells the story of three Seattle journalists who investigate a personal ad - based on a real-life one - placed by a man seeking a partner for a time-travel experiment. Duplass plays the oddball at the center of it all. After playing at January's Sundance Film Festival - where it grabbed a screenwriting award and was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize - it screened Saturday night at SXSW, with a theatrical release planned for June. According to Indiewire, it's worth watching for.
Film School Rejects: Matthew McConaghey's New Orleans-shot "Killer Joe" offers laughs, smart brutality. "(Director) William Friedkin's stage adaptation of Tracy Letts' stage play is not as accomplished as their previous (New Orleans-shot) collaboration, 'Bug,'" writes Jack Giroux of Film School Rejects. "But it's definitely more unhinged and surpasses many of its fellow genre brethren. If you thought 'Bug' was 'crazy,' just wait until you get to 'Killer Joe's' final minutes of magical brutality." But don't worry, a cowboy-hat-wearing McConaughey told MTV at the film's U.S. premiere Saturday at SXSW - although the film might make you cringe at times, it's OK to laugh. "Killer Joe" co-stars Emile Hirsch, Gina Gershon and Thomas Haden Church.
Vimeo: Big Easy Express" trailer. (See embedded video below) Directed by Emmett Malloy, this music documentary closes out the festival Saturday (March 17) with its world premiere. Steeped in Americana, it follows the bands Mumford & Sons, Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros and Old Crow Medicine Show on a train from Oakland to New Orleans - covering 2,800 miles in a week and a half. Along the way, they stop and play gigs - and jam on the train between stops.
Indiewire: Visually masterful "Tchoupitoulas" boils New Orleans' vivid culture down to a single night. In 2009, the documentary-making Ross brothers trained their cinema verite lens on their Ohio hometown in the wonderful doc "45365," offering an intimate look at their small Ohio hometown. Soon thereafter, the boys came to New Orleans to paint a similar portrait of the Big Easy, as seen along Tchoupitoulas Street. The film apparently purports to take place in a single night -- although it took nine months to shoot -- so there's a bit of fictionalizing going on. But if the results are anything like "45365" -- and after seeing it in its Saturday-night SXSW premiere, Indiewire's Eric Kohn suggests it is -- it stands to be a mesmerizing piece. The Ross brothers' "Tchoupitoulas" played both Saturday and Sunday at SXSW, with additional screenings set for tonight and Thursday. No word on when it will get a New Orleans screening, but you can get a sampling of what's in store in the embedded trailer below. | https://www.nola.com/movies/index.ssf/2012/03/from_tchoupitoulas_to_killer_j.html | 2018-10-15T16:57:26 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Book 17 Chapter 4 - Flaunting Power with One Fist
Under the ten-thousand expectant eyes, Fu Qian remained calm and composed; he said, "Why don't we fight on top of the railings? Whoever forced down the railings will be considered defeated.”
The crowd broke into uproar, which quickly subsided. Everybody held their breath to see how Pang Yu would respond.
Pang Yu was laughing inwardly.
Although he was good at using the sword, he has had hard work invested in his punching and kicking skill, and created the ‘Taixu Cuo Shou' [great emptiness interlocking hand], which he fused within his sword moves, so there was not much difference with using sword; hence his earlier suggestion.
The wooden railings, which was shaped like the letter ‘U' [orig. 凹 character (ao - sunken/concave)], was made of highest quality Chinese cedar wood. The overall length was approximately five zhang, the width was about half a chi. Although the wood was carved with floral pattern, it was actually very sturdy. Even people who did not know martial art, as long as their hands and feet were nimble enough, would be able to move freely on top of the railings. For martial art masters who were skillful in balance like them, it would not be much different from fighting on a level ground. The only limitation would be their range of movement, so that both combatants must be able to accurately grasp the opponent's footwork.
Pang Yu's ‘Taixu Cuo Shou' movement was precise. If he could predict the opponent's change, it's power would increase, would be even more astonishing; therefore, he could not welcome Fu Qian's proposal even more, so how could he refuse it?
This man was highly intelligence, and was fully aware that there could never be too much deception in war, yet on the surface the intentionally put on a hesitating expression, before frowning and said, "This method indeed can guarantee that we won't accidentally cause damage to anything. Zaixia has no choice but to risk my life to accompany a nobleman.”
Fu Qian revealed a hint of apathetic smile; he said, "Pang Xiong, after you!”
Before his words ended the two men have already soared at the same time, and landed steadily on the railings.
A lot of the spectators applauded, because their shenfa was lightning fast, and more amazingly, they did not look like they need to raise their qi before making their move. Even more astonishing was that they did not jump over the railings and landed down, but they went straight from the floor to the railings at an angle, and then simply stuck on the railings like a nail, without creating the slightest amount of vibration.
Just this ability to control their power according to their heart's desire, the shenfa that enabled them to stop as soon as they wanted to stop, was not something that ordinary Jianghu martial artist could hope to reach.
Kou Zhong already estimated that Fu Qian possessed ultimate skill, so he was not surprised at all; but Pang Yu was this formidable, he had never anticipated it. He could not help recalling Li Jing's warning.
And then Pang Yu stood on the railing with one leg, the tip of his left leg on the back of his right leg, assuming the ‘golden rooster standing on one leg' stance, but he looked a lot sturdier than other people standing on both legs. Especially since he was standing on one side of the end of the railings, so there appeared to be danger in the midst of steadiness, exuding some kind of extraordinarily special momentum.
Fu Qian was standing like a towering Mount Tai in the middle of the railings, his two feet were a fraction of a cun apart. Due to the railing height, which was about five chi off the ground, and inside the stairwell was a deep empty space, he was like standing on the summit of a mountain. His magnificent build gave the crowd a fantastic impression that they were looking up a high mountain.
Facing Pang Yu, he laughed in relaxed manner and said, "Since Xiaodi came to the Central Plains, this is the first time I officially fight with others; however, I don't want to make it a precedent, hence Pang Xiong must not be overly courteous just because I am the visitor. Pang Xiong, please!”
Although his words and demeanor were modest and polite, there was an overbearing character, a suffocating feeling, which made him appeared even more enigmatic, provoking fear in the heart of the crowd.
Pang Yu laughed inwardly. It should be noted that a fight between martial art masters was similar to a game of chess; initiative was extremely important. If the combatants' skill was on par with each other, whoever seized the initiative oftentimes became the factor that determined the outcome.
If they were fighting on a level ground, even if one side lost the initiative, he could always withdraw to dodge and then launch a counterattack. But if their movements were confined to this curved railing, which length was no more than five zhang, which width was no more than half a chi, and they must not touch the ground, then whoever lost the initiative would almost guaranteed defeat without any chance of victory.
The crowd went abuzz; they quietly criticized Fu Qian for being unwise.
Again Kou Zhong whispered into Song Yuzhi's sparkling-and-translucent-like-jade small ear, "If vying over the world only involves taking turn fighting on wooden railings, Xiao Ling would definitely sit on the Emperor's throne.”
Song Yuzhi agreed wholeheartedly; speaking about hand-to-hand combat in narrow, confined space, there were really not many people who could match Xu Ziling's hands and feet.
But she moved away a little, and then glowering at Kou Zhong, she said, "Did you intentionally blow into my ear?”
Kou Zhong's old face was blushing slightly; luckily this moment Pang Yu cried out, "Forgive my offense!” Immediately qi power flared out. Song Yuzhi no longer paid him any attention, and thus the kid escaped the embarrassment.
It was as if there were wheels on the sole of Pang Yu's feet. Using the ‘flowing out a thousand li' style, he slid for about a zhang along the wooden railing, straight toward Fu Qian's left side. The fingers on both hands put together in the shape of a sword, his left hand sliced down while his right hand stabbed forward, both attacking Fu Qian. Immediately qi power rushed forth violently with frightening momentum.
The arena was instantly filled with a grim, cold and raw atmosphere. Although Pang Yu was using his bare hands, unexpectedly he was able to produce a stabbing sword feeling.
Xu Ziling took this opportunity to secretly observe Xing Mofei and the others, the group of Tuyuhun's martial art masters. He noticed that they were watching the fight with full attention, but nobody showed nervous or worried expression, as if they had full confidence on their master's ability. He could not help shivering inwardly.
Based on the skill Pang Yu currently displayed, if he were in Fu Qian's place, he would have to be dealing with it quite strenuously.
Right this moment, the battle situation changed.
Unexpectedly Pang Yu leaped up and swooped down from the air like a hawk, his two hands still had the fingers together in the shape of a sword like before, only he attacked Fu Qian's face instead.
Now, even the blinds would know that Pang Yu wanted to finish the fight in the shortest time possible, by forcing Fu Qian, within these several moves, to leave the railings.
Fu Qian laughed aloud. He waited until the enemy nearly arrived before bending his body backward, looking up, as if he was turning into a bow, and then his right fist shot forward like a powerful arrow toward Pang Yu, who was coming down at him at an angle.
The crowd was suddenly overwhelmed with burning hot tension and terrifying feeling; more astonishing yet, they did not feel the slightest bit of the wind generated by the fist's qi power, as if everybody suddenly became deaf and their skin even lost its feeling, or as if they were in a nightmare, where they suddenly saw a flash of lightning, but did not hear the thunder.
Fu Qian's silent punch, even more than any punch power and palm wind, made everybody felt the chill in the air. No one who watched the battle was not stunned, because it was simply beyond their imagination.
Li Shimin, Tuli, and the others also showed an amazed look on their faces.
Pang Yu, who was right in the middle of the battle, was even more unspeakably miserable. If they were on a flat ground, he could evade by retreating some distance away. But this moment he could only withdraw to a spot on the railing.
When the so-called expert making a move, he would immediately know the real from the fake.
But Fu Qian's ability to restraint the wind from his punch, Pang Yu had never even thought about.
It was not that the wind from the punch did not exist, but it was concentrated into a column, which went straight toward him. He felt as if he was in the middle of a storm, which other people could not feel, and was going down against the wind. It was extremely unbearable.
Only this moment did he know that he had fallen into a trap.
Obviously Fu Qian's highly concentrated power discharge was some kind of innate true qi, which no momentum could resist.
One after another the palm winds collided with Fu Qian's right punch.
In the eyes of the spectators, it appeared that Pang Yu deliberately changed his move to seal and pierce the opponent's earth-shattering punch. Only Pang Yu and martial art masters of Xu Ziling, Li Shimin, Hong Funu's caliber were able to see that Fu Qian's simple punch was surprisingly able to seal any changes of Pang Yu's sword palms offensive.
Pang Yu felt as if he was in the middle of a ten-thousand catties force of exploding big rocks between the two hands. His body felt like he was struck by a thunder, and was nearly thrown straight up; if he crashed through the roof, perhaps nobody could decide whether the ‘breaking things' clause of their agreement would be the responsibility of Pang Yu, or would it be returned to Fu Qian.
In this critical moment, Pang Yu did not panic. Abruptly raising a mouthful of true qi, he reversed the direction of the soaring momentum back down. This moment Fu Qian's fist suddenly broadened its scope and went straight toward Pang Yu's face.
What happened was his powerful body acted like a spring, from the bending position it straightened, adding momentum to his fist, from blocking it turned into counterattacking.
Pang Yu cried ‘Bad!' inwardly; hastily he crossed his hands into a pair of scissors, and met the opponent's iron fist head-on.
‘Bang!'
The sound of qi power colliding against each other reverberated across the entire hall, shaking the eardrums of everyone, so that even Mu Tiexiong, who was circulating his qi to recover his breathing, could not help opening up his eyes and looked up from the staircase below.
Pang Yu's entire body was blown like a leaf in the gale, until his toes tapped on the beam overhead that he shot back toward Fu Qian, who was still standing as stable as the mountain on the railing.
Although Fu Qian's condition was that either one of them must not touch the ground, but he never said they could not touch the beam, the pillar, or the roof, yet everybody thought that Pang Yu has already lost. | https://www.novelall.com/chapter/Da-Tang-Shuang-Long-Zhuan-Volume-17-Chapter-4-part1/588618/ | 2018-10-15T16:45:51 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Li Zitong sat high on the dragon seat. Squinting, he looked askance at Xu Ziling stepping into the main hall, accompanied by Shao Lingzhou and Shen Beichang, as if he wanted to see him through.
In the main hall, there were altogether eighteen imperial tutor chairs arranged in a row left and right in front of the throne. This moment, the three main seats on the left were occupied by Li Zitong's trusted aides. Behind the chairs stood two rows of imperial bodyguards wielding halberds in their hands, wearing shiny armors; they were quite awe-inspiring.
This kind of imposing manner would be appropriate in the Imperial Palace, but in Zongguan Mansion's main hall, it gave the impression of false bravado. However, Li Zitong was under pressure and had no choice; by abandoning the Imperial Palace, which was devastated by the raging fire, and took the Zongguan Mansion instead, he wanted to show that he was different than the muddleheaded ruler. He did not even dare to stay at the other temporary imperial residences that the previous emperor built to enjoy life.
After the herald at the door announcing their arrival, Shao Lingzhou and Shen Beichang followed Jianghu protocol in asking to have an audience with respected figure. Xu Ziling followed their example to save a lot of trouble.
After granting them their seats, Li Zitong coldly asked, "I wonder which position Mr. Ling holds in Shao Shuai Army, whether you have any symbol of authority with which you can represent Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in this talk?"
The three high-ranking generals sitting below him all stared fixedly at Xu Ziling with cold eyes to see how he would respond.
Li Zitong's appearance was obviously more haggard than the last time they met, the hair on his temples was graying; it was clear that that was the price he had to pay in contending over the world.
Xu Ziling responded indifferently, "Since our Army was hastily established, we have had continuous military campaigns; a lot of things we still do not have time to take into consideration, symbol of authority and documentation, none has been prepared, I am asking Wu Wang's forgiveness."
A big frown appeared on his face, Li Zitong said, "Then how is Mr. Ling going to prove that you can speak on those two men's behalf?"
Shao Lingzhou interjected, "Da Wang, please understand, our humble Gang's Gui Xiliang has personally confirmed to Laofu that General Ling is indeed Kou Shao Shuai's ambassador."
"Oh," Li Zitong mumbled, and pointed to the imperial tutor chairs, he leisurely introduced the three high-ranking generals to Xu Ziling; they were, successively, Zuo Xiaoyou, Bai Xin, and Qin Wenchao.
A bizarre feeling welled up in Xu Ziling's heart; as early as when he was a still a little rascal roaming Yangzhou's street, he and Kou Zhong had already heard these three's names, and already admired them.
Especially Zuo Xiaoyou, who was the leader of one of the militias. In the great undertaking ten or so years ago at the uprising of the Dun Gou Shan [squatting dog hill], his might rose up for many days. It was some time later that he surrendered to Li Zitong, who rose abruptly one year later than he did. Among the three, he was also the oldest; in his forties, he was tall, thin, with clear eyes that glanced fearfully, his face was full of wind and frost [fig. hardships].
Bai Xin and Qin Wenchao were youthful, bold and powerful, with typical build of Shandong men, taller than average. Their attitude toward Xu Ziling implied hostility; they simply nodded slightly as a form of greeting, cold and rude.
'Bang!'
Li Zitong slapped the armrest and shouted, "Since you can speak on their behalf, General Ling ought to be able to tell me: why did you attack Donghai and kill my younger brother, and rattle my, Ol' Li's foundation?"
Unyielding, Xu Ziling met his harsh and fierce gaze, and replied indifferently, "Wu Wang ought to understand people. In time where men are contending for hegemony over the world, there is neither friend nor foe. Plus our humble army had used peaceful measured before using force; we did send Pengliang Hui's Ren Er Dangjia to Jiangdu to pay a visit to Da Wang, to discuss our alliance, but Da Wang refused. Hence from friend we became foe; how could the blame be on our side? Moreover, it has come to our attention that Muyang's Li Xingyuan came to us in feigned surrender; left with no choice, we have to beat you at your game, to gain the initiative by striking first."
He has not finished, Li Zitong suddenly stood up, pointed his finger at Xu Ziling and shouted sternly, "Outrageous! Guards! Get him out and chop his head!"
The imperial bodyguards jumped from Li Zitong's left and right.
Xu Ziling pressed his hand on the hilt of his saber.
But while Shao Lingzhou and Shen Beichang were at a loss to know what to do, Zuo Xiaoyou sprang up and shouted, "Hold on!"
The imperial guards swiftly halted their steps.
Zuo Xiaoyou turned to Li Zitong and said, "Working together both sides benefit, separated both sides perish. Da Wang please calm down."
Panting with rage, Li Zitong stared hatefully at Xu Ziling for a good while before sitting back down in the dragon throne at the top of the steps.
The imperial guards returned to his left and right.
Zuo Xiaoyou sat down and spoke to Xu Ziling, "This time Shao Shuai sent General Ling here, what good proposal do you bring?"
Because Xu Ziling had overheard Li Zitong's secret talk with Ku Ge earlier, he was well aware the opposite party was using both hard and soft techniques to create pressure, so that in the ensuing negotiation, they would be able to reap greater advantage. Feeling amused inwardly, Xu Ziling maintained that calm-and-unruffled-in-the-midst-of-chaos attitude; he said, "General Zuo is right, working together both sides benefit, separated both sides perish. Du Fuwei could form an alliance with Shen Faxing, our Shao Shuai Army naturally can also form an alliance with your honorable side. If Da Wang thinks that this suggestion is satisfactory, we can continue our discussion, otherwise I have no choice but to leave immediately to report to my supervisor."
Li Zitong laughed coldly and said, "Kou Zhong bragged that he can break our Jiangdu's siege; did he really make that remark?"
Everybody's eyes were fixed on Xu Ziling.
Xu Ziling smiled calmly and said, "Indeed he made that remark!"
Letting out long laughter, Qin Wenchao said, "When Du Fuwei proclaimed himself hegemon in Jianghuai, and our humble master was preeminent at Shandong, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were just little rascals in Yangzhou. Within Zhuhua Bang, they lacked the qualification to have even one leaf. And now, although they won a little bit of power, what made him think that he would be able to repel the allied forces of Jianghuai and Jiangnan?"
Xu Ziling laughed involuntarily and said, "Compared to Li Mi, who was able to move unhindered in the Central Plains, can Du Fuwei be considered superior? Problem is whether Da Wang can be like Wang Shichong, who was at least able to defeat Li Mi. Even if we worked together earnestly, can Da Wang do it?"
Li Zitong's countenance changed greatly; because Xu Ziling was implying that since Kou Zhong was able to defeat Li Mi, naturally he did not have any regards on Du Fuwei and Li Zitong. Moreover, since the cooperation with Li Zitong was limited to the breaking of the Jiangdu siege, afterwards both sides will meet face to face to decide victory or defeat.
Bai Xin was afraid Li Zitong could not restrain his anger, he interrupted, "But how do we know that your superior is going to cooperate in good faith?"
Xu Ziling laughed aloud and said, "My humble superior Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling are known to be one-word-worth-nine-sacred-tripods men [fig. words of enormous weight]; have you ever heard they broke faith and abandoned right [i.e. commit treachery]?"
There was a tight silence in the hall.
Li Zitong tapped the armrest with his fingers; he spoke in heavy voice, "Empty promises, what good will they bring? What kind of brilliant scheme does Kou Zhong have that he can solve the crisis in Jiangdu?"
Xu Ziling smiled and said, "As long as Da Wang agrees to lift the blockade at the canal, send army provisions from Zhongli for our use, and provide accurate intelligence about the enemy to us, we will immediately dispatch our troops to mount sneak attack to the enemy's rear stronghold and army camps, so that their head and tail cannot attend to each other, while facing the enemy from the front and back. In the past, Li Mi was using precisely this tactic, so that Yuwen Huaji's hundred thousand elite troops were tired of constantly running for their lives, much less Du Fuwei's insignificant several tens of thousands Jianghuai Army?"
Zuo Xiaoyou said, "At that time Li Mi's fighting generals were like clouds, his armed forces strong and solid. Now Shao Shuai Army has just taken shape, how could you match them?"
Xu Ziling replied, "This is just as Jianghuai Army cannot be compared to Yuwen Huaji's elite troops in the past. Besides, we heard that Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou do not bite the strings [? Must be an idiom, but I have no idea what it means]. Is that true, or false?"
This moment the crowd was beginning to be enraptured by the eloquence of this lobbyist; momentarily nobody was able to say anything.
Skirting the issue, Li Zitong said, "How many men and horses can Kou Zhong spare to help me?"
Xu Ziling confidently replied, "How about twenty thousand cavalry?"
Li Zitong immediately said, "Tell Guaren first; how do you intend to dispose of our Li clansmen from Donghai?"
Xu Ziling smiled and said, "Da Wang indeed understands people; you ought to know that if we do not have any problem in working together, Da Wang's clansmen should not have any problem if they wish to leave."
Li Zitong laughed aloud and said, "Very well! It is decided then."
Xu Ziling already knew that this was going to be the final outcome. By giving Li Zitong a hundred-benefits-without-a-single-harm proposal like this, how could the other party refuse? | https://www.novelall.com/chapter/Da-Tang-Shuang-Long-Zhuan-Volume-21-Chapter-11-part2/941868/ | 2018-10-15T17:28:07 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

Thieving Royals Keep Things Moving
Mercury was the Roman god of, among other things, trickery and thieves, making him the perfect symbol for baseball’s stolen base, even before you consider his winged hat and sandals. His erratic nature — the inspiration for the word “mercurial” — also fits when you consider how baseball’s fleetest teams have fared in postseasons past.
The go-go Kansas City Royals are the latest team to remind fans what a terror a team can be when it keep things moving. Like the 2003 Florida Marlins, who ran their way to a World Series title, the Royals have people talking as if a time machine to the days of Ty Cobb has appeared in the Kauffman Stadium outfield.
The aggressive approach of those Marlins, led by a 1-2 punch of Juan Pierre and Luis Castillo, drew so much attention that George Steinbrenner was said to insist on signing Kenny Lofton the following off-season to add a similar dynamic to the Yankees.
Pierre did not shy away from describing his importance during his team’s unexpected run.
“Just to put them uneasy, that’s my job — to create havoc,” Pierre told reporters after Game 1 of the 2003 World Series, in which he had gone 2 for 3 with a walk, a hit-by-pitch and a stolen base. “It opens up the field for me. I accomplished what I wanted to do.”
Speed was a huge factor in that postseason, with the Marlins stretching for extra bases and keeping pitchers guessing, but it did not show up in the form of stolen bases. In 17 games, the Marlins stole eight bases and were caught six times. The supposedly sedentary Yankees, who Steinbrenner apparently felt needed a boost of speed, led all playoff teams with 11 steals in 14 attempts.
That is the nature of stolen bases. Except for truly great base stealers, the statistic is heavily influenced by game situations and opposing catchers, meaning steals can elude even the fastest teams and players if things do not break just right. Just ask the 1985 St. Louis Cardinals, who stole an incredible 314 bases during the regular season but swiped just eight in the postseason and ended up losing in the World Series to the Royals.
The 1914 Philadelphia Athletics stole 231 bases in the regular season but managed just two while being swept by the Boston Braves in the World Series. Conversely, the 2008 Tampa Bay Rays, a team that stole less than half as many bases as the 1985 Cardinals during the regular season, set a major league record with 24 steals in a single postseason. (The Rays did have one more playoff series than the Cardinals, though.)
While one of baseball’s most exciting plays, the stolen base has not proved much of a bellwether for a team’s success in the regular season or the postseason. Since 1920, when the home run began to replace the stolen base as baseball’s biggest weapon, 169 teams have stolen 150 or more bases in a season, but 128 of those teams did not qualify for postseason play, including the 1976 Oakland Athletics, who set a post-dead-ball-era record with 341 steals. In that same time span, just 12 teams with 150 or more steals went on to win the World Series.
The Royals have been remarkably consistent in terms of stolen bases, if not wins, in recent seasons. The 2014 team stole 153 bases on the way to 89 wins, which should seem familiar because they stole the same amount last season while winning 86 games. In what may seem like a bookkeeping error, they also stole 153 in 2011, but they won just 71 games.
Unlike many of their speedy predecessors, the Royals have not abandoned the strategy in this postseason, tying a playoff record with seven steals in the wild-card game against Oakland and continuing their thievery in their American League division series by stealing another five bases over three games against the Los Angeles Angels.
Still, just as Mercury came and went, the American League Championship Series has been a different story for the Royals’ running game. In two games, both wins, Kansas City has one stolen base in three attempts. It could get worse should they advance to the World Series, where they could face Yadier Molina of the Cardinals, widely considered baseball’s best catcher.
Speed will be a factor for Kansas City regardless of how many bases the team steals, though, as it was for the 2003 Marlins.
And as long as the Royals keep winning, the long-suffering fans of Kansas City are unlikely to complain about any shift in strategy.

The Santa Fe River, which flows along neighboring Alachua County’s northern boundary, started running green with algae last week.
The Santa Fe River, which flows along neighboring Alachua County’s northern boundary, started running green with algae last week. It was the result of a perfect mix of low flow, warm weather and too many nitrates from fertilizers, manure and sewage.
So thick was the green slime, it could be scooped from the once pristine Santa Fe River.
The sliming of the Santa Fe is a heartbreaking testament to the deteriorating state of North Florida’s increasingly stressed springs, rivers and lakes.
The Santa Fe, like Marion County’s own Silver, Ocklawaha, Rainbow and Withlacoochee rivers, is a designated Outstanding Florida Water, which state law declares is “a special category of waterbodies ... which shall be worthy of special protection because of their natural attributes.”
Clearly the Santa Fe, or the Silver, or the Rainbow, or the Withlacoochee, or any other OFW, is not getting enough special protection, if any at all. If they were, they would not be running green with slime or choked with water plants or clouded from a carpet brown algae-coated eel grass that has overtaken these once pristine waterways that 18th century naturalist William Bartrum described as “bowls of liquid light.”
The Santa Fe, declared a health threat last week by county health officials, is not the only river in Florida to turn green in recent days, either.
The Caloosahatchee River near Fort Myers is also covered in green slime so severe the county ordered the shutdown of a drinking water plant serving 30,000 people and warned residents not to have contact with the water, and to keep pets and livestock away as well.
So where are our leaders? Their reticence is deafening and disturbing. The sliming of the Santa Fe and the Caloosahatchee are just the latest alarms to sound that Florida is facing a major water crisis. Silver Springs, once arguably the largest freshwater spring in the world, is no longer even the largest spring in Marion County thanks to its declining flow, which is one-third its 80-year recorded average. Instead, Rainbow Springs now has a greater spring flow.
Potato farmers in Hastings, north of Palatka, are reporting salt water intrusion into their irrigation wells, the result of a plummeting water table.
The Suwannee River is so low, a person can wade across it, and its world famous springs are literally drying up.
Meanwhile, a plan by Adena Springs Ranch to pump some 13 million gallons of water a day just north of Silver Springs is stirring a statewide protest of reckless water policies that fail to take into account our fragile water resources and an historic drought.
Again, where are our leaders?
It is unrealistic to think that our water management districts will ever cease issuing consumptive use permits, nor should they. Growth is essential to prosperity. But we have to wonder where our elected representatives are, where Gov. Rick Scott is, while the state stands on the threshold of not just a water war, but a water crisis — and, with it, an economic crisis of a new kind.
Our “outstanding” waters are green with slime because of a plummeting water table and too much pollution. What more must happen before we see some serious leadership? | https://www.ocala.com/news/20120530/editorial-the-river-is-slimed | 2018-10-15T17:45:58 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
The Dodgers plan to unveil a finished Jackie Robinson statue at Dodger Stadium on April 15, 2017, a year to the day after they announced the project was in the works. jersey number 42. Robinson’s jersey number is now permanently retired.
The day will take on added significance in Los Angeles next season when the Dodgers play host to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Fans in attendance will receive a Jackie Robinson replica statue.
Robinson’s wife Rachel personally attended the announcement at Dodger Stadium last year, when team president Stan Kasten unveiled the creation of a new “Statues Program.”

The state board that supervises public defenders has entered a $1 million contract with a children's rights group to represent more than 80 juvenile offenders awaiting resentencing hearings after district attorneys filed to retain their life without parole prison terms — sentences deemed unconstitutional except in rare cases by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2016.
The Louisiana Public Defender Board last week made final its partnership with the Louisiana Center for Children's Rights, which will provide defense work for all of Louisiana's juvenile lifer cases still pending, in which prosecutors oppose new sentences that include a chance at parole.
About 300 inmates in Louisiana were impacted by the 2016 Supreme Court ruling that found mandatory life without parole sentences for youth offenders unconstitutional, even in prior cases. A state law later provided two-thirds of those prisoners, all convicted of murders committed at 17 or younger, new sentences that included a chance at release. The remaining cases, nearly 100 of them, need a court hearing to determine a new sentence due to the prosecutors' | https://www.oijj.org/en/news/general-news/state-contracts-1-million-with-childrens-rights-group-to-represent-juveniles-lifer | 2018-10-15T18:00:27 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

Pajón focused on retaining BMX crown
The reigning BMX world champion, Colombia’s Mariana Pajón will arrive at Rio 2016 with designs on retaining the Olympic title she won in such spectacular fashion four years ago in London.Born on 10 October 1991 in Medellin, Pajón long nurtured hopes of competing in the Olympics, though not always in the sport in which she has made her name.
“In 2000, when I was nine, I used to do gymnastics, not BMX, and I thought that I’d go to the Games as a gymnast,” she explained. “I dreamed about moments like that. I felt so proud and I really wanted to go to the Olympic Games.”
Pajón first sat on a bike at the age of four and soon began to devote her energies to BMX, prompted by her father and brother, both of whom competed in the discipline, which is derived from motocross racing. It was not long before she began to win competition after competition.
In 2011 the Colombian rider moved to the top of the world rankings, courtesy of victories at the World Championships in Copenhagen (DEN), the Pan American Games, and the Latin American, South American, Central American and national championships, a clean sweep that led to her being named sportswoman of the year in her home country.
In appearing at London 2012, Pajón had the honour of carrying the Colombian flag at the Opening Ceremony, an occasion she looks back on with great affection: “I felt so honoured to be competing in a non-mainstream sport, a sport that wasn’t well known in Colombia, and to represent my country at the Olympic Games. It was a major responsibility to carry the flag at the Opening Ceremony, and it showed the people of Colombia that there are other sports they can be proud of.
An unreal experienceWhen the BMX competition came around, Pajón showed she was ready for the challenge by going third-fastest in the seeding run at the Lee Valley Velopark, clocking a time of 38.787 seconds to finish just behind New Zealand’s Sarah Walker and Australia’s Caroline Buchanan.
“I felt full of confidence after that seeding run,” said the Colombian. “I posted a very good time and I felt I’d done a really good run on that track.”
Two days later, Pajón eased to victory in her semi-final, winning each of the three runs. Despite being drawn into Lane 4 in the eight-rider final, not her favoured starting position, she was determined to make the most of her opportunity.
She added: “I didn’t want the nerves I was feeling to stop me from making the most of the occasion, because I was on the way to achieving my dream. I wanted to remember everything too. I felt very calm, a lot calmer than usual, which wasn’t normal. I knew I’d prepared really well and that all I had to do now was give it my all.”
When the gate finally went down, Pajón jumped clear of the pack. “I knew my time had come. I made a great start, and when I realised I was in the lead and that I had a clear track ahead of me, I said to myself that I had to complete the lap without making a mistake. I knew on the second jump that no one could catch me. All I had to do was ride the way I know how.
Describing the moment when she made the gold hers,?’”
On a roll.”
An Olympic champion at the age of 20, Pajón has since been intent on keeping the good times rolling, and has continued to sweep virtually all before her in the lead-up to the Rio Games. A BMX World Cup winner in 2013 and 2015, she collected another world title in Rotterdam in 2014 and the world BMX time-trial crown the following year.
Then, in May this year, riding at the complex that bears her name (El Complejo Mariana Pajón) in her home city, she got the better of Buchanan and the USA’s Alise Post to win the UCI Elite World Championship title, a victory that allows her to go to Rio as the world champion, just as she did in 2012.
Her goal since pocketing Olympic gold in London is to go down in history by repeating the feat in Rio. As fierce and determined in the saddle as she has always been, Pajón has the means to go and do just that. | https://www.olympic.org/news/pajon-focused-on-retaining-bmx-crown | 2018-10-15T17:09:56 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

When a man or woman is called to patriotic military duty, he (or she) is not
afforded the luxury of time! When you are told "YOU WILL REPORT - YOU WILL
Some four years ago, Shorty Estabrook, my wife Brenda, and I, embarked upon
a noble crusade! The media, and indeed, even several patriotic veterans
organizations were shocked to learn that American military personnel who
perished horrendously while being held as captives by some of the most vile
of aggressor nations, were not deemed worthy of being awarded a Posthumous
Purple Heart Medal by the government that they perished to defend? A medal
that costs less than $8.00 to manufacture. So I ask you - "What are the
lives of our kids in uniform worth?"
Some 36 honorable veteran's organizations with a combined membership of over 8 million members, not counting an army of caring family members and the national media, also saw their patriotic duty and urged our government to
finally get this Bill passed into law. This was some four years ago, and in this effort, about 220 congressmen and other bureaucrats, in a bi-partisan endeavor, pushed for the passage of this long-overdue measure!
- Advertisement -
My wife Brenda and I, even in poor health and meager finances, spent
countless hours laboring on this long-overdue legislation. And finally, at long last, the Bill was pushed over to the Department of Defense for a study. A study, we are told, that was deemed meritorious by the Pentagon. And yet, through all of this and more, and after being informed that this "Honor Our Fallen Prisoner of War Act" was being implemented (what ever that means), we still have absolutely no idea as to when (or if) this matter will finally become law?
Our gallant soldiers, marines, sailors and airmen have never been given the
luxury of time, and certainly not four years worth, as to when they would
report out into harm's way! As a matter of fact, many of the bodies of the
17,000 plus American Heroes who died in squalid enemy detention facilities,
over the past 66 years, have never even been returned home! So I ask you,
why is our government, the government of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln,
Franklin and the patriotic kids now serving out in the Gulf, dragging its
feet when it comes to finally recognizing the mortal sacrifices of our
fallen brothers?
A good question indeed, and one that most whom I have continuously contacted
within government, seem reluctant to address!!
- Advertisement -
In the event that our government has not figured it out by now - I will not simply go away. "Our departed warriors gave us their all, can we now do any
less for them?"
The Time Has Come To "RE-AWAKEN HONOR" Within Those In Government Who Are Worn To Serve And Protect WE THE PEOPLE. And Where Is More "HONOR" Involved In Recognizing Those Who Died In Our Defense.
VERITAS (Truth)

Dentists confirm that round 80% of the population have some kind of Gum disease.
Periodontal diseases vary from being simple gum inflammation to serious issues causing major damage to the soft tissue & bone holding the teeth. In the worst cases they can even cause tooth loss.
Causes :
Bacteria in our mouth along with mucus or other food particles and forms a sticky and colorless plaque. Regular brushing and flossing can remove plaque. But hardened plaque can only be removed by dentists. Gingivitis (inflammation of the gum where the gums become swollen, red and start bleeding) later leads to more severe Periodontists (gum creates pockets around the tooth which destroys the tooth as it becomes loose). | https://www.orthodontist-dubai.com/periodontal-disease/ | 2018-10-15T16:42:50 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

John McAfee Arrested in Guatemala
Fighting extradition to Belize
Software mogul John McAfee was arrested in Guatemala City on Thursday after entering the country illegally. McAfee, 67, said on Wednesday that he had requested asylum in Guatemala, and that he feared he would be killed by police if he returned to Belize, where he is a person of interest in the murder of his neighbor, Gregory Viant Faull.
"He will be in danger if he is returned to Belize, where he has denounced authorities," said his Guatemalan lawyer, Telesforo Guerra.
The Guatemalan Foreign Ministry is now deciding whether to send McAfee back to Belize for questioning. McAfee has been on the run since early November, when Faull was found dead in his home from a gunshot wound. | https://www.outsideonline.com/1794886/john-mcafee-arrested-guatemala | 2018-10-15T16:57:53 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Recovery is Possible
Jason's Story
My addiction to pornography started at a very young age, when I was about 11 years old. It was first introduced to me by a family member who would show it to me whenever I went to his house.
I continued my addiction for many years, through school and a first marriage, divorce and second marriage. As I went through my second divorce, I felt like nothing was left for me. I had nowhere to go and life had no meaning. I felt that this addiction would never end. I had tried many times to quit on my own, with some success, but I always fell back into the dark abyss.
Because of choices I had made due to my addiction, I was eventually disfellowshipped. It was hard to admit the things I had done. I felt empty. But my branch president was very in tune with the Spirit. He handed me the Addiction Recovery Program guide and expressed strong feelings that I needed to go to the ARP meetings. Going to the first meeting was hard. I felt alone and afraid. I drove by the location of the meeting several times before I decided to go in.
When I finally went in to the meeting, I felt the Spirit for the first time in a long time. I realized I had felt so alone because I hadn’t experienced the warmth of the Spirit like this for much too long. I decided that I wanted to have my Savior back in my life. I knew it was going to be a difficult and hard journey, but one that I was willing to make because of the love I felt at that first meeting. I learned that I shouldn’t be afraid of going to the meetings, but that I should be afraid of the blessings and opportunities I would miss out on for not going. At the meetings, I only felt love and acceptance by those going through the same struggles, and I leaned on them for strength.
The events that followed and things I experienced since then were so amazing it is hard to put to words. Others had told me that I would always be an addict and that I could not recover. But I felt the cleansing power of the atonement, and I knew I would be able to overcome this addiction.
My addiction had held me back because I didn’t feel good about myself, but today I am worthy member of the Church, my career has taken off in a direction I have always dreamed, I am remarried, and have since had a beautiful little girl.
The peace I feel in my life is one of gratitude. I am humbled to know of the sacrifice of my Savior. I had previously taught about the atonement in Sunday school classes, but to actually live the atonement and use its principles brought me peace for the future. I felt so much love and compassion during the repentance process.
I continue to attend ARP meetings as time allows so that I can feel the Spirit there. The Addiction Recovery Program gave me the tools I needed to overcome and stay focused on being free from addiction. Recovery is possible. | https://www.overcomingpornography.org/individuals/recovery-stories/recovery-is-possible?lang=eng | 2018-10-15T18:01:45 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Hero Golden Retriever Saves Drowning Baby Deer In Long Island Sound
“Storm just plunged into the water and started swimming out to the fawn, grabbed it by the neck, and started swimming to shore.”
Storm, a golden retriever owned by Long Island resident Mark Freeley, made a daring rescue while on a walk. According to the Huffington Post, Storm managed to pull a drowning baby deer to safety.
“Storm just plunged into the water and started swimming out to the fawn, grabbed it by the neck, and started swimming to shore,” Freeley told CBS News.
Video of the deer's extraction from the treacherous waters went viral on Facebook, garnering over 70,000 shares.
As can be seen in the video, the deer was not moving much after Storm pulled it to safety. Freeley called a local animal rescue group, but when they attempted to check on the deer, it ran back into the water.
Team members were able to once again rescue the deer. The deer was then taken to receive medical attention. It is expected to make a full recovery and be re-released into the wild.
“I think we could all learn something from Storm,” rescuer Kutzing told Port Jefferson Patch this week. “If we just learn to treat each other nicely and look out for each other, despite our differences, the world would be a better place.”
Storm was rewarded for his bravery with lots of treats:

‘Getting truly to know another human being is like exploring a new continent – or another world. One plunges into abysses, wanders among lofty mountains, is lost in the depths of mysterious forests, rests in bowers of roses with the brook sparkling beside one and the birds singing in the branches overhead, and stands on lonely shores gazing out over the illimitable expanse of sunlit waters.’
Consider extending your retreat by also staying on for the 5 day Open Retreat - For Heroic Spirits Intended. You can book a place on that retreat here:...
The retreat starts with dinner on the first day at 6:30pm and finishes on the final day at 10.00am.

Website & Social Media Archiving for Kansas State Agencies
Do you represent a Kansasansas?
Kansas Open Records Act (KORA) regulates, governs and enforces social media and open records in the state of Kansas. It is the public policy of Kansas that “public records shall be open for inspection by any person unless otherwise provided, and this act shall be liberally construed and applied to promote such policy.” K.S.A. 45-216(a)Do Kansas.
Public records are defined as “any recorded information, regardless of form or characteristics, which is made, maintained or kept by or is in the possession of any public agency. . . .” K.S.A. 2008 Supp. 45-217(g). The scope of KORA extends beyond paper, given that form or characteristics are not considered, thus include electronic and digital records. Case law has found that content placed on the internet deemed a public record must be treated suitably subject to these standards. (State v. Stevens, 26 Kan.App.2d 606 (1999)). Computer data is also legally considered a “record.” (State ex rel. Stephan v. Harder, 230 Kan. 573, 582 (1982)).What agencies are subject to these laws?
Subject to KORA, a public agency is the state or any political or taxing subdivision, or any office, officer, or agency thereof, or any other entity, receiving or expending and supported in whole or part by public funds. Essentially, KORA extends to an office or agency that is connected with state or local government.What is my agency required to do in line with these regulations?
KORA requires that public records be reproduced in the form that the public agency possesses them. If the public agency wishes to provide the extra service of converting a record into another format, it may do so.Info Gov Update:
The 2000 Legislature made important changes to the law by sunsetting all of the exceptions by July 1, 2015, unless they are individually re-enacted under state policy guidelines newly set out in the statute. These standards require exceptions to be created or maintained only if:
1. The record is of a sensitive or personal nature concerning individuals;
2. It is necessary for effective and efficient administration of a governmental program; or
3. It affects confidential information.
Electronic and computerized information can meet the definition of a public record and so must be provided in the form requested if the public agency has the capability of producing it in that form.How can we transfer website archives made with PageFreezer to the Kansas State Digital Archives?
PageFreezer exports all data on request in the original file format including the required metadata. This data set can be transferred by FTP or by other means to the Kansas Record management start a free trial, schedule a demo or contact us directly. | https://www.pagefreezer.com/government/kansas-public-record-laws-for-website-socialmedia/ | 2018-10-15T18:00:27 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
More and more, online content is the face of an organization. When we want to find out something, what do we do? Google it, of course. Or, we might look online to our social networks to see what our friends, family, and associates are saying.
With this in mind, businesses, government agencies, and other institutions need to treat their online presence like any other mission critical business process and keep accurate records. There’s an entire new industry devoted to this task; web and social media archiving.
For some industries, archiving is a legal requirement. For others, archiving is a preemptive action to protect against nuisance suits or other legal actions. Or maybe you just want to know exactly who said what and when without undertaking a major effort.
In any case, archiving is about having the processes in place BEFORE you need them. Like insurance, you don’t want coverage after an “event”. Some reasons to archive:
SEC, FINRA, FDA, FTC. FDA, HIPAA. FERC. IIROC, NRC … there is no shortage of regulators. And the power they yield is staggering. Many businesses and organizations have been fined and sanctioned to the point where they have had to shutter the doors, spend time in jail and pay millions in damages. You need to have a compliance solution that can easily, affordably and automatically preserve all of your online content for compliance purposes.Record retention
Preserving your online content has become an important aspect of record retention for companies and organizations in many different industries. However, unlike most digital content, online content from websites, blogs and social media sources can be very difficult to capture accurately and the ability to replay that content as it originally appeared has, to date, been impossible. You need a simple, automated and cost-effective way to capture, preserve and replay content from online sources, and it can play a crucial role in your organization’s record retention program.Litigation Preparedness
Litigation is one of the biggest threats to the well-being of companies, organizations and institutions in today’s business world. The costs of litigation from a legal perspective can be crippling, with the costs of going to trial in the USA averaging in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Being prepared for litigation is essential, and you need a simple, automated and cost-effective method for ensuring that all of your online content is preserved in a way that it can be used as evidence in court.Evidence Capture
Legal professionals that want to capture evidence from websites and social media accounts have several methods that they use, each of which has serious drawbacks. The most popular method is to create a PDF file of each page and then print the content. This is a manual process and can be very time-consuming, especially if the content needs to be regularly captured. The other major drawback of this method is that all interactivity in the page or site is lost and any relationship between content on different pages is lost. Another method is to save the HTML files and all of the page elements to disk, however this method fails to prove that the data is authentic and integral, and it is also a time-consuming and labor-intensive process.Competitive intelligence
Imagine having all the website and social media content for your company and your major competitors right at your fingertips, any time you need it. Special events, seasonal campaigns, product launches, store openings…every occasion that requires targeted marketing is suddenly transformed by the immediate availability of previously used content. Analysis of past social media successes is incredibly simple yet it yields powerful data.
If you need any more information about any of this, let us know! Click the Schedule a Demo button (top right) or contact us directly and we’ll help you determine your archiving needs. | https://www.pagefreezer.com/why-archive/ | 2018-10-15T18:02:03 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Mexico says energy price hikes over for 2015
Mexico says energy price hikes over for 2015
Mexico's government said on Friday that its latest "gasolinazo," or gasoline price spike, will be the only increase this year.
The fuel price hike in the world's 10th biggest crude producer comes as slumping international oil prices have led to dramatically shrinking gasoline and diesel costs in countries where market forces determine prices, such as the United States.
The finance ministry's announcement that prices would remain stable in 2015 follows government-set fuel and power price hikes announced quietly on Thursday, both at about 2 percent, which will hit nearly all motorists and residential power users.
Mexico's government determines fuel prices and will continue to do so until a sweeping energy reform finalized last year opens up the retail fuel market in 2017.
The new government-set maximum price for the top-selling gasoline grade sold by state-owned oil company Pemex is about $3.46 per gallon, or 1.9 percent up from December.
That compares to an average of about $2.30 per gallon in the United States, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Agency (EIA), or about one third more expensive.
Meanwhile, the residential electricity rate faced by more than 9 out of 10 Mexicans rose 2.1 percent on New Year's Day to about $0.0546 per kilowatt/hour (k/h).
Like fuel, power rates in Mexico are set by the government, which said the Jan. 1 hike would also be the only one in 2015.
It noted that the energy price hikes for 2015 both fall below the central bank's inflation target of 3 percent.
President Enrique Pena Nieto's 2013 energy reform, which ended decades-long oil and power monopolies, was largely sold on the promise of lower electricity costs over the next few years.
The latest EIA data show that average U.S. residential power rates stand about $0.1258 per k/h, or about 57 percent higher than the government-subsidized rate in Mexico.
Mexico also announced a nearly 7 percent cut to base industrial power rates, which have long been significantly higher than average prices faced by U.S. industrial users.
The new industrial electricity rate in Mexico is about $0.0590 per k/h, according to state-run national electricity company CFE, compared to $0.0634 per k/h in December.

"zoom shops are not your parents' vending machine," said gower smith, ceo and co-founder of zoom systems, in a statement.
"unlike vending, we have developed the technology and intelligence to offer consumers the hottest products from $10 to $200, from the best brands. it's like shopping online, but consumers have the instant gratification of getting their product immediately."
zoom systems' "zoom shops" are 40-square-foot robotic stores (or, what we may refer to as vending machines), which display up to 150 products behind a pane of glass.
similar to an online shopping experience, consumers can access detailed information about each product (and related accessories) in an "un-pressured" sales environment, smith said.
with an average transaction time of one minute, the customer can select products using a touch-screen graphic interface, and instantly make a purchase via credit or debit card.
"a robotic arm appears from behind the user module and gently transfers the product off of the shelf into a robotic delivery pocket, while zoom systems' optical technology ensures product delivery before the customer is charged," said smith.
all purchase information is transmitted through the internet to a central bank of service. zoom shops are all networked and centrally managed to maintain the highest service levels, according to a company representative.
"zoom can transform 40 square feet into a profit center that generates thousands of dollars in annual revenue per square foot," said peg jackson, managing director at neocarta who has joined the board of zoom, in a statement. "and the shopping experience is so positive that even at this early stage, over 25 percent of purchases are from repeat customers."
zoom systems automated zoom shops can be tailored to include a range of product channels to satiate consumer demand.
electronic devices tend to be the most popular, with most zoom locations offering a variety of consumer electronics, wireless communications and consumer accessories, smith told ziff davis internet.
apple's ipod has been a rather lucrative channel for zoom systems' high-tech vending machines.
the company has phased out the apple ipod mini model, although the shuffle and nano versions are currently available (forget the brutal airport mark-ups) at street price.
in addition, zoom plans to introduce the new video ipod, slated to hit shelves in november for the holiday season, according to a company representative.
zoom systems makes available a variety of "concept shops" that cater to on-the-go customers, with themes like electronics, dvd, last-minute-gifts and more.
it can also implement custom-branded store networks. the company will design each concept, program the store, manufacture and install the software and monitor the network.
in addition, zoom can merchandise the automated shop, as well as purchase, ship and replenish inventory, according to the company web site.
zoom systems was originally founded as a tech company that developed software systems to control the automated retail experience, and also developed a network to centrally manage supply chain merchandising for automated machines.
the company later changed gears and took a retail direction.
it collaborated with a japanese robotic delivery company and integrated its zoom software with their technology to introduce the first robotic store in march 2005, according to smith.
"it all started when we developed an automated supply cabinet of sorts," smith said. "we wanted to take that a step further and incorporate an electronic sales person to give consumers information about each product and to aid in the purchase process. by implementing with a robotic store, we've created a stand-alone retail channel."
zoom systems launched its first robotic store in atlanta's hartsfield-jackson international airport and soon after added an installment in san francisco, both of which proved successful.
the company recently signed long-term agreements with both airports to expand the number of automated outlets, according to the release.
zoom systems has also signed with several new brand partners (no details about who those partners are, as of yet) and is currently in the process of developing additional stores for release in the next year, smith said.
future plans for the company include extending its network of zoom shops to 3,000 in the next two years.
zoom systems expects its network to grow significantly beyond that, reaching the 10,000 mark within five years.
editor's note: this story was updated to correct the company's targeted number of zoom shops over the next two years. | https://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,1876717,00.asp | 2018-10-15T16:39:54 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Mark, Debbie & Molly the lab – Aug 18
A very enjoyable few days in the cottage and Derbyshire. It’s our third visit, although the previous two were in the Hayloft. Both cottages are comfortable and well equipped. Spent one day at Chatsworth Country Fair and the rest walking around the local area. We just about completed a marathon in total! We ate at the Royal Oak, Hurdlow who are dog-friendly but need prior booking (esp at weekends). We will definitely be back!
Sleath & Reading & Moly the cairn – Aug 18
Corbar Edge a must! A secret hidden valley – Litton Mill to Cressbrook (don’t tell too many people!). We loved the location and explored all around but more to see! Cottage cosy and warm and well equipped. Thanks from all! Would recommend a retreat to a place of silence/peace regularly!
Simon, Kaune, Molly, Andrei & Spot – Aug 18
A lovely quiet break with everything we needed. A few days to recharge here was just what we needed. The cottage had everything we needed to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Clean and tidy with comfy beds. Thanks, hope to visit again.

HybridCluster, an early stage software company, has raised $1 million in fresh capital from investors including Jason Seats, former vice president of engineering at Rackspace Cloud; Charles Grimsdale, partner at Eden Ventures; Anil Hansjee, former Head of Corporate Development, Google EMEA; and Toivo Annus, former Head of Engineering at Skype.
PRESS RELEASE
HybridCluster, an early stage software solution provider to the cloud and hosting industry, today announces completion of a $1m fundraising and immediate availability of version 2.0 of its integrated suite of storage, replication and web clustering software. Amongst the investors are established industry figures including).
“For too long web hosting companies have lived in fear of unforeseen failures, spikes in traffic or user error striking their operations, stopping their business in it tracks,” said Luke Marsden, CEO and founder at HybridCluster. “With this investment in the company we are now able to launch Hybrid Cluster 2.0 and compete effectively in the hosting market across Europe and North America.”
Liam Eagle, Analyst, Internet Infrastructure Services at the analyst firm, 451 Research, pointed out: “HybridCluster is a compelling platform in that it targets system failures and spikes in demand. Performance and availability are two on-going challenges for shared hosting providers, and two key metrics by which their customers measure their services. Hosting providers are likely to appreciate it as a means of bringing the benefits of cloud technology to their hosting environments.”
HybridCluster 2.0 provides service providers the ability to create cost effective, high availability hosting and email infrastructure. It provides:
· High-Availability: Self-healing to automatically recover when hardware, software, networks or even an entire region fails – and in less than a minute from a backup made less than a minute ago.
· Intelligent Auto-Scaling: Scaling to provide and charge for scalability in response to spikes in traffic.
· Rapid Restore Data Vault: ‘Time machine’-like capability to allow hosting company customers to roll back to last good version of files themselves in case of accidental data loss or malicious attack for websites, databases and mailboxes.
“HybridCluster is a rare combination of a disruptive and game-changing technology from a company run by an inspiring and highly motivated team in a market that has undeniable need for, and clear benefits, from the technology,” stated Jason Seats, former Rackspace Cloud VP Engineering and MD of TechStars Cloud.
BrickStreet Data Systems, a provider of high availability SaaS and website hosting to businesses in North America, has been a HybridCluster customer since February 2013. “We wanted to grow our hosting business but our old platform was vulnerable to systems failures, traffic spikes and end users deleting their own files. It was also exceedingly difficult to do even routine maintenance on each server,” explained, Andrew Skattebo, CEO of BrickStreet Data Systems.
“That’s why after months of research and testing and finding other solutions either too complex or too expensive, we chose and deployed HybridCluster.” Skattebo added: “Today we can offer a more cost-effective, high-availability hosting platform that is easier to maintain and takes away many of the risks that normally affect a business like ours.”
HybridCluster 2.0 is available immediately to cloud and web hosting service providers. The majority of HybridCluster customers across America and Europe are now live on version 2.0. Users can visit to sign up for a trial. Visitors to HostingCon in Austin, Texas, from June 17 to 19, can see HybridCluster in action on the exhibit floor at exhibit #723 as well as see HybridCluster’s CEO, Luke Marsden, first up on the Tech Track on the conference agenda.

, during the Meroitic Kingdom (ca. 300 BCE ? 300 CE). This painted jar comes from one of the many wealthy tombs in the Karanog cemetery. Meroitic Nubia had a sophisticated tradition of painted pottery which incorporates geometric designs as well as figural images: humans, animals and plants. Meroitic artists also used Egyptian style images and symbols. This charming object has a frieze of serpents on the shoulder, and grazing giraffes on the midsection. The artist has depicted the giraffes in a slightly cumbersome way and with bovine elements, suggesting the artist may have never seen a living giraffe. At that time giraffes only lived much further south in the savannah lands of southern Nubia.

Qarib Qarib Singlle box bureau collection day 1: This film stars Irrfan Khan and Parvathy.
Qarib Qarib Singlle has started on a decent note earning Rs 1.75 crore on a initial day. Directed by Tanuja Chandra, a regretful comedy stars Irrfan Khan and Parvathy in lead roles. Qarib Qarib Singlle is also a Bollywood entrance of actor Parvathy who hails from Kerala and has been active in films down south.
Trade researcher Taran Adarsh tweeted a figures. “#QaribQaribSinglle Fri ₹ 1.75 cr. India biz… Expected to declare expansion over a weekend,” he said.
The gain of Qarib Qarib Singlle is approaching to grow extremely over a weekend interjection to clever word-of-mouth and mostly certain reviews that it is receiving. It might not have started like a blockbuster, though it should simply cover a bill and afterwards some. Currently, it has clever competitors in a form of Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana, Ittefaq and Thor: Ragnarok, though if all goes well, a film should do good since of vast Irrfan Khan fanbase and a ubiquitous adore for jaunty comedies Indian open seems to have.

Indian Express film censor Shubhra Gupta gave a certain examination of Qarib Qarib Singlle. “There’s a lot going on between Yogi and Jaya, and that’s what we wish in attribute dramas, this recognition of any other that builds solemnly nonetheless steadily. Director Tanuja Chandra earnings after a sizeable gap, and delivers a well-crafted, charming rom-com. It is mostly so right that we are compelled to omit that eye-roll of a reason that leads to a journey, a few prosaic moments and underlined scenes – zooming into faces to tell us how a impression is feeling – generally one in that one of them, finally, grows up. At a finish of it, we wish that their attribute standing will change to Kareeb Kareeb Couple. we walked out smiling, and sighing. With pleasure,” she said.

Styling Your forms with CSS and Labels?

- Usando Label en formularios Tranquilidad
- CSS tricks and effects Peter Nichol
Not sure it's necessarily better, but a different approach since I've been tackling the same problem lately: I've found I prefer myself to nest the form element inside the label tag and and style the labels like block elements, without using break tags. Even though this requires a bit more CSS, the benefit is that the HTML needn't be touched if a layout change is desired (i.e. - you want to have First Name and Last Name on the same line instead of separate.) It also gives me additional selectors to use when styling a long form. I'd post an example of what I mean, but it looks like your comments don't allow HTML.
I know what you mean Jon, your method does have the advantage of more flexibility within the CSS. Thanks for sharing.
Both very cool techniques. I'll definately use one or the other in the future.
This is cool but is this supported in other browsers?
I have been trying to use a similar approach with a list of checkboxes & labels. I have the problem of long label text (basically titles and authors of books). These long labels tend to wrap and then end up under the checkbox and looking pretty bad. I don't want to use any absolute positions as the layout is relative. has anyone dealt with this kind of thing before.
Why not just use a table? This is one of the few cases where tables actually make sense: I want to have two columns of things, one column of which is labels, the other column of which is fields. The CSS approach you've listed here won't gracefully deal with people scaling their fonts via Firefox, or with people who customize their font size via local stylesheets.
I prefer this approach over tables because it uses much less code. Also if you keep your label width large enough scaling font sizes shouldn't be much of an issue. This is not to say that there aren't some cases where a table would work better, but I think for most cases this is a better solution. prefer separating form controls with p tags rather than br's: >
By using "float: left;" on <label>, instead of "position: absolute;", you can avoid using <br />s after every <input> without nesting the "form element inside the label tag," which is not valid XHTML. If this doesn't work in IE/Win, would someone please correct me.
Does anyone know if perhaps <label> and <input> are supposed to be enclosed by a block level element such as <p> or <dl>? If you notice, without styling, all of these elements will render on the same line.
One problem that you might run into with this approach is that because you've used fixed-pixel widths - the user will have problems when resizing text (or when your labels are too long?) I usually use a relative unit to define widths of elements. Check out my form template:
Uh. How do you make a form just like this one? Can you give me the code please?
Still a bit lost how do you align the input boxes so they are vertical and spaced a bit without using the <p> or <br /> tags? I am a web design intern/student (more of a print media kind of designer), so sorry if it is here already and I haven't picked it up.
Michael,.
Thanks Jon, it makes a little bit more sense, trying to wrap my head around it right now. I am going to use the CSS method but for now I am just trying to find out what works the the AD wants to get it clean coded and place it in the site we are doing. I applied a <div> to the section and that has lined up everything for now. I just need to adjust their widths so the browsers all render the same thing. Thanks again.
Why not just use display: block; ? it is rendering it as display: inline;, the simple solution would be to render it as a block and give it float'(s) and positioning if or as it is needed.
Why try so hard to avoid table tag? It's on the contact form. I am not going to spend extra time optimizing contact page. They will fill the form no matter what (if they want to contact me). I have other pages to worry about.
what i really miss is the ability to control the look of my form 100%, the whole idea of a standardized look and feel is useless among most skilled webdesigners, becourse most younger users simply dont care about that part, since they could reconise a button/whatever the grapical opject is intended for instantaneously..
Having that said, i still lack the skills to present everything 100% the way i want it to be shown.
Haven't read every entry in too great detail, but the original post and some subsequent ones got me on the right track. Here's what i ended up doing... form label { display: table-cell; width: 80px; float:left; } form input, textarea, select { display: table-cell; } It worked a treat, and the html uses only the <form> tag and <label> tags, nothing more..
beautiful code! a couple of lines and all my forms passed from horrible to quite nice. in less that 5 minutes
this was exactly the solution I was looking for. thank you very much
Don't forget that the fieldset tag is required for strict xhtml...).
The article code works well, but I cannot figure out how to format using the same technique as the top comment. I cannot seem to get the boxes to left-align like the presented in this article. Has anyone been able to get this version to display the same: "I've found I prefer myself to nest the form element inside the label tag and and style the labels like block elements, without using break tags."
I can't figure out how to make this code cross browser compatible. It looks pretty bad in IE 7
thanks, this works great across all browsers.
i need only print label in html page. using css. pls help me
label {display:block;margin:5px;}
.intro{width: 10em; float: left; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;}
and then ...
<label><span class="intro">name: </span><input type="text" name="" value="" /></label>
.intro{width: 10em; float: left; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;}
and then ...

Simple. Comfortable Mexican Sofa, a simple CMS engine. I never ended up putting any sites on it, though.
GitHub's Pages are of course one of the best answers, but I'm sticking to my self-hosting, built-at-home guns.
A Short Code Tour
The code is split up into four distinct parts:
viewer is a Sinatra app that presents wiki content as web pages. It also can serve static assets right from the wiki repo and caches everything in an in-memory LRU cache. If you have a file
layout.erbit will wrap the pages in that layout, otherwise it'll pass the content straight to the browser.
manager.
some small extensions to Gollum add basic auth and override the method Gollum uses to find the correct wiki repo. By default Gollumn wants to be told exactly where the repo is in a class-level Sinatra setting, but that doesn't work when things are dynamic.
a Rack middleware ties it all together. The middleware has three jobs. If the incoming hostname maps to a CNAME that one of the sites has declared in a special wiki page named
cnames,.
Demo Time
Here's what the manager app presents when you just go to
sites.bugsplat.info:
I'm the only one that's ever going to be looking at this, so it doesn't really need to be anything fancy.
If you click on one of those links, you'll get the familiar Gollum interface:
To create a new site, just append its name to
sites.bugsplat.info:
Notice the new little button. Clicking that creates the repo and sends you back to Gollum to populate the home page:
If you want to see how the demo site is put together, it's running here and the source is on GitHub here.

Contributions to the UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development
Series:
Edited By Fernando J. Gonçalves, Ruth Pereira and Walter Leal Filho
Chapter 4: An Assessment of Requirements to Reframe Science Education towards Education for Sustainable Development
Extract
Chapter 4 An Assessment of Requirements to Reframe Science Education towards Education for Sustainable Development Maria Arminda Pedrosa Abstract Documents published by United Nations agencies, or in cooperation with them, along with relevant research literature, namely on science education and on envi- ronmental education, are analyzed to articulate concepts involved in sustainable development and in education to help promote it. The goals of the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development are outlined and the importance of this initiative to move towards the millennium development goals is highlighted. Strategic actions for education on sustainable development, educational policies and curricular orientations are briefly reviewed in the framework of the second half of this decade, at policy level regarding member states and at practice level as defined in the Bonn Declaration. Some key ideas on educational policies and reform in the European Union are presented, focussing on the formal education and curricular orientations of the national curriculum for sciences in Portugal. Research-based recommendations on science and technology education are high- lighted, emphasizing the STS movement in science education and good practices, at different levels, especially regarding science teachers’ education, to help reori- ent education towards education for sustainable development. Concluding re- marks are presented focussing on the requirements for reshaping science educa- tion towards this end, within the United Nations Decade and beyond, on a practi- cal level in schools, classrooms and laboratories. Ways forward are suggested to promote and sustain educational innovations, based on pertinent research-based knowledge. Synergies and partnerships are advocated...

Editorial: Acquire the docks
While we see little need for the Entrance Island state float in Hobart Bay, the Borough Assembly should devise and negotiate a way to acquire the docks and floats on Kupreanof Island and Papke’s Landing. Both are located along Wrangell Narrows.
Yes, significant repair and upkeep costs will be required to maintain the facilities but enough people within the Borough make use of them to justify ownership of the structures.
We support the takeover for the same reasons we supported the Borough purchase of Mental Health properties at Papke’s Landing in 2015. A borough government has been form...

PETROWATCH learns more than 60 bid documents have been sold so far for eight cities offered for auction in the country’s third city gas licensing round, launched by the Petroleum & Natural Gas Regulatory Board on July 23. “Many new players have shown interest,” says an industry source, “including a few infrastructure companies.
” State-owned consultancy Engineers India, he adds, was among the first to buy documents, but it’s not clear for which cities. Construction company OMAXE bought documents for Panipat in Haryana, while pipeline laying contractor Corrtech has shown interest in four Gujarat cities.
Existing players Gujarat Gas, Hindustan Petroleum, GAIL Gas and Adani Energy also plan to bid. Interestingly, Bharat Petroleum, which has stakes in Delhi-based Indraprastha Gas and Gandhinagar-based Sabarmati Gas, has so far not bought documents for this round.
“We are aware of the third round and the areas on offer,” says a BPCL source. “We will decide soon whether to bid.
” IGL is planning to bid for the north Indian cities of Panipat, Ludhiana and Jalandhar. Panipat, in particular, is attracting much interest.
“More than 10 companies have bought bid documents for Panipat,” we learn. Of little doubt is that the PNGRB is certainly making a lot of money by selling bid documents.
Each costs Rs5000 ($107). In the months ahead it will get even richer.
Each company must pay a non-refundable application fee of Rs800,000 ($17,196) for each city where it bids. “No wonder they (PNGRB) can afford to pay their staff so well,” we hear. | https://www.petrowatch.com/synopsis.php?artId=9340&w=1 | 2018-10-15T18:08:06 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

The N-Queens performance was slightly faster with this newest BSD operating system state.
The GIMP performance appeared to be noticeably slower on DragonFlyBSD 5.3.
The Python performance is at least slightly faster.
The PHP performance is also looking up on DragonFlyBSD 5.3-DEVELOPMENT ahead of DragonFlyBSD 5.4 stable.
In many of the benchmarks there are nice performance improvements, but also in some there are several cases of slower performance at least on this Intel Xeon E3-1280 v5 system... Anyhow, when the DragonFlyBSD 5.4 release nears I'll be back with more benchmarks and on a larger spectrum of hardware tested. Those interested can find additional test data from this current run via OpenBenchmarking.org. | https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=dragonfly-53-1280v5&num=4 | 2018-10-15T17:47:26 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Back in 2012 I wrote about Project Darling as an effort to run Mac OS X software on Linux -- to Wine is for Windows software on Linux, Darling is for Mac software on Linux. Work on Darling seems to have picked up recently after a brief hiatus.
In late 2013 it looked like Darling development stalled but in January of 2014 was news the project had been refreshed. But that's the last time I had anything to report on the project until hearing recently from a Phoronix reader and saving it for an otherwise slow news day that Darling is in fact still under development.
The Darling Git repository remains active. As of writing this article there has been over 1,200 commits with the most recent activity being just from two days ago. The most recent code additions were adding an initial GDB JIT interface, adding a Ruby sub-module, and some documentation updates..
More information on the Darling project via the project site at DarlingHQ.org.
Four years in it can't run too much software, but are you looking forward to it and one day having Mac GUI apps on Linux? Do you see any need for running Mac software on Linux when there is Wine for Windows software on Linux? Share your thoughts on Darling with us by commenting on this article in our forums.

There is no question that LED lighting is continuing to make inroads into the machine vision market, mainly because the technology’s strengths outweigh its inherent weaknesses in a variety of general applications. Because of the compactness of individual LED elements, the space needed for a lighting system can be much smaller. Other benefits include less power consumption, extremely good control of bandwidth and no deterioration of the light output during conventional operation. In a typical application, such as inspection of chip components and printed circuit boards, LED illumination is sufficient for checking the alignment of components, as well as for providing enough contrast to inspect for solder and other related defects.LED sources are available in many configurations. For example, in ringlighting used in front-ring illumination bright-field strategies, they can provide 360° of intense, shadow-free, even (nondirectional) illumination, except, perhaps, when working with highly reflective surfaces. They are also available in backlight, coaxial and bar-light configurations. LED lighting is still not an option for applications that require long working distances, especially line-scan applications, which can have fairly large targets as well. In this case, the technology’s inherent weakness continues to be lack of brightness compared with other sources of light. The working distance limitation is slowly being reduced with efforts to introduce ever-brighter devices. However, the cost of current high-brightness technology is still too high to justify the use of such LEDs in many traditional machine vision applications.Heat controlAn area where LED illumination has seen major advances is heat control. With conventional LED lighting, the heat factor still cannot be separated from the luminous intensity. In general, LEDs generate heat that reduces device luminosity as it builds up. Although heating may not be as much of a concern when LEDs are run at less than full power, most machine vision applications do require them to operate at full power to get the desired brightness.Paradoxically, in a constant-voltage system, any kind of heat dissipation will require LEDs to have a heat-generation-limiting resistor. Emerging LED technology — Moritex’s MG-Wave series, for example — resolves this problem by using a constant-current-detection control system. Relocating the heat-generation-limiting resistor from inside the light to the power source improves control of heat emission, removing any adverse impact that a resistor would have on thermal characteristics.Combination strategyWith a limiting resistor incorporated into the light, a constant voltage configuration can be applied to any light within the capacity of the power supply. Although this configuration alone is highly effective in controlling heat, it requires an adjustment to the supply current of the power source based on the number of diodes (i.e., the total current required). This means not only that each light requires an independent power source, but also that the system is not very flexible in altering the conditions, such as when changing the light.With a detection circuit incorporated into the light, the latest generation of LED heat-control systems reads the resulting signal to control the rated current. The information is adjusted according to the number of LEDs in the lighting module, which allows the strategy to work with any type of lighting — such as in the constant-voltage configuration — if it is within the maximum current capacity of the power source.Test results show that use of a constant-current system in combination with this proprietary heat-dissipation technology reduces heat generation, while providing as much as 40 percent more luminous intensity than conventional LED products (see figure). Lighting intensity measurements for four test products illustrate the impact of moving the resistor to the power source. The tests were for 30 minutes of lighting after full acclimatization to the temperature of a bath maintained at a constant 40 °C.In general, this illumination strategy can produce more-stable images for a longer period than other forms of lighting because repeatedly switching the light on and off causes no deterioration. With LEDs operating across a narrow bandwidth, it also is easier to acquire the contrast that is needed for diverse image processing applications. Continous improvements in brightness levels and heat control are making LED lighting a strong contender in many applications. However, the technology still has weaknesses that preclude its use in certain applications, such as those that require long working distances.Meet the authorKevin Sebley is sales and business development manager for Moritex USA Inc. in San Jose, Calif.; e-mail: ksebley@moritexusa.com. | https://www.photonics.com/Article.aspx?AID=18866 | 2018-10-15T16:50:27 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
Why I like Giving Lectures
So I’m in the middle of a mini lecture tour, Calumet are very generously paying for my travel, accommodation and monstrous food bills. I’ll have been to 8 colleges by the time I’m done, and most of them aren’t coughing up any money to have me there for the day. A couple are – I don’t want to tar them all with the same brush – and I’m sure those that don’t would like to, but are simply strapped for cash like everyone else is at the moment. So by the time you add up the days lecturing, the travelling time, and the rather large amount of prep I put in, it’s quite a lot of work to do for very little remuneration. Why bother giving lectures?
Well, first off I enjoy it. It’s a cliche, but there is something refreshing about working with people who are just starting out, particularly when you’ve become such a jaded old hack as I have. There’s a lot of energy around a good college, and some of it rubs off.
Second, there’s my long standing commitment to “telling it like it is” and trying to impress upon students some of the realities of the commercial world, so that they can be best prepared for it once they leave college. Besides making every effort to show things warts and all, one of the slides I’ve often shown illustrates my honest turnover figures for my first 10 years in business. Needless to say the total for the first year makes quite daunting reading to someone still studying – particularly when you factor in me leaving college with no debt (student grant, and summer factory job a big help there).
Which brings me on to the last reason I go around shouting my mouth off and lecturing. When I studied at Blackpool we were blessed with a very good program of visiting lecturers, from all sorts of backgrounds, and I even ended up being one of the students who helped organise it by the third year. Across the three years I recall them falling into broadly 3 categories:
- A fairly hefty number who, for whatever reason, I thought were irrelevant – to me at least.
- A small number (1 or 2 each year) who were simply inspiring on every level. Their work, their attitude, their outlook, all of it combined to make me think “I want to be doing what you’re doing in a few years time”.
- A large number (including people from groups 1 and 2) who, for whatever reason, scared the crap out of me. Maybe they told us how much marketing we’d need to do, or how little money we could expect to earn in the first couple of years. Whatever it was, I usually left the lecture with my stomach in my boots, feeling very scared indeed. The thing was, by the next day I was determined, and inspired, to go on and do what it was they had detailed to get past that scary thing.
Now, I’m well aware that for lots of the people I’ll be lecturing I’ll fall into the first category, and I wouldn’t be so arrogant as to assume I’m in the second for anyone, but I sure as hell can do the third one well!

Nowhere in the President’s obligatory remarks is HAMAS mentioned. This despite the fact that the “Palestinian” government [with which the Israelis are expected to work] is now officially a wing of HAMAS. We believe that the intentionally low-keyed tenor of the text provides further evidence of this administration turning away from the special relationship which has historically existed between the United States and Israel.
The administration’s suggestion that Israel do nothing to “destabilize the situation” - an already extant battlefield – betrays a lack of appreciation for the rising level of Middle East unrest, for which he is largely responsible and of which Israel is a prime target.
As a final point let us note that this administration continues to deal with jihadist atrocities as matters of criminality rather than as acts of war, which further telegraphs to the enemy that they really have little to fear by way of reprisals from the United States. In viewing such matters the terrorists rightly conclude that we have dialed out of international matters and have no intention of returning to a position of leadership anytime soon. | https://www.pipelinenews.org/2014/jun/30/president-obama-rsquos-curiously-halting-condemnation.html | 2018-10-15T18:12:31 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

The Sounds of Soul
Last Show: Saturday 17 th March 2018
PizzaExpress Live (Maidstone)
Kevin Leo leads the The Sounds of Soul for their first time at the Maidstone Music Room for a very special show, swinging and grooving their way through some classic soul dance anthems. The band is driven by the powerful engine of drummer Daniel John (Soul II Soul) and bassist Liam Joseph while guitarist Paul Williams (Carleen Anderson) increases the rhythmic momentum. Keyboardist Brian Henry (Omar) adds expressive harmonies and countermelodies to the arrangements. Having spent long hours together both on stage and in the studio the band is an impressively tight unit that seamlessly weaves together the vocabularies of classic soul anthems. The result is as unique as it is engaging.The smooth and distinctive soul/jazz specialist Kevin Leo creating the kind of soul-drenched, uplifting sound you won't find being performed by anybody else. Fabulous soul treatments of iconic material. | https://www.pizzaexpresslive.com/whats-on/the-sounds-of-soul/160206231406 | 2018-10-15T16:55:27 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
PEORIA — Christmas has a way of invoking the cheerful and uplifting aspects of life. It also has a way of magnifying the missteps, the rotten luck and the pain of that same life.
Gwen Womack-Senders doesn't foresee much of a Christmas this year. Already on permanent disability, she faces a knee replacement surgery Tuesday that will keep her cooped up for most of the merriment this month.
"I'm just not sure I can do anything this Christmas," Womack-Senders said.
The Journal Christmas Fund, in its 105th year, has a goal of raising $155,000 to provide 5,085 food baskets and 1,700 toy-filled stockings to families in Peoria, Tazewell, Woodford and Fulton counties.
Her quality of life has eroded in the past four years following an operation to remove a tumor from her brain. Senders has trouble with her short-term memory, forgetting where she's going or what she just said to someone, and has diminished reflexes along with arthritis. She has not been able to drive since 2013 and instead relies on walking to get places. Her knee pain has robbed her of that now, too.
Her life wasn't always like this. She was once very active, participating in bowling leagues, attending movies and helping out at places around town. Born 64 years ago in the old Proctor Hospital, Womack-Senders considers herself a lifelong Peorian despite living in Indiana and the state of Washington for several years. She worked at OSF Saint Francis Medical Center on a full-time basis for a while and worked other places part time to pay the bills.
"I was a very independent woman," Womack-Senders said. "My independence has been taken away from me."
She has fallen into an array of maladies and also has to care for her husband. Terry Senders, 59, recently underwent double-bypass surgery after suffering a heart attack and has also survived colon cancer and dealt with an ailing back from three decades of being a truck driver.
The medical bills pile up and the disability payments only cover so much.
"They try really hard," said Gwen's sister, Malinda Duncan. "They just don't have the money."
Duncan does most of the driving for the two of them and has helped them with their medical payments. But her family has their own ailments to deal with and the struggle to make ends meet persists.
"We don't have a lot to give, but we do as much as we possibly can," Duncan said.
The food pantries — Manna From Heaven, Common Place, Peoria Area Food Bank — keep them afloat, and Womack-Senders counts her blessings every time they receive food and other items from those organizations. But it has exacted a toll on her, particularly the depression and anxiety of the last few years. And the "giving season" is tough to swallow when you have nothing to give.
"I'm not going to be able to get my husband anything for Christmas," Womack-Senders lamented.
Womack-Senders wrote to the Journal Star Christmas Fund seeking a Christmas basket to make the holiday a little simpler for her and her husband at a time when she will mostly be immobile. With Duncan set to drive her to the procedure Tuesday, Womack-Senders looked forward to being able to walk around again, clasping on to whatever remains of her independence.

IBC 2014 will also see Civolution add support for the newest industry standards for 4K ProRes and real-time watermarking of IMF/JPEG2000 video, as well as cloud-based watermarking for eScreener videos.
Additionally, Civolution’s CEO Alex Terpstra will host a presentation on Friday, September 12th (14:00-14:25, IBC Content Everywhere Cloud Solutions, Hall 3) to explain how watermarking enables broadcasters and operators to secure the cloud and open up new revenue opportunities. | https://www.platformcomms.com/civolution-demonstrate-real-time-solutions-second-screen-interactivity-next-generation-content-protection-ibc/ | 2018-10-15T17:51:43 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |
One of the biggest challenges that I’ve harped on with the burgeoning plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) market is that the vehicle pricing remains high regardless of whether tax incentives are available. Why? Because if I want to buy a Nissan LEAF or Chevy Volt, I still have to pony up (or finance) the full MSRP of either $33,000 or $42,000 and wait until tax time to get the credit. The vehicle costs alone will eliminate a lot of potential buyers simply because they won’t be able to afford to finance the vehicle.
The way tax credits work, this could net you the full $7,500 in a refund, but more likely you will receive a refund of less than $7,500 (although you may still retain the full value of the tax credit). This gets confusing, so some examples might be helpful. For this example, we’ll consider a single person with one exemption earning $70,000 of taxable income per year. Note that these are simplified examples, not tax advice. I am not a tax expert and you should discuss your taxes and potential tax credits with your tax professional.
In the first example (A), the recipient gets the full value of the tax credit and ends up with $6,719 cash come April (we’ll just assume they then put that cash right towards paying down their car debt). Overall, this is not too bad.
However, if you are more like the person in example B and have been working to reduce your tax bill through other deductions and other tax credits, then you won’t get the full value of these credits and this credit could possibly be worth significantly less. In example B, the recipient went on a buying spree, bought a home and a PEV, but only receives $7,481 value from their $15,500 in tax credits, and they only end up with $7,200 in cash.
Last week, Vice President Biden announced three initiatives [3] aimed at driving the PEV market to 1,000,000 vehicles by 2015. The first of these is a much needed change to the way the PEV tax credit works. This would give the tax credit to the dealer who then would pass along the savings to the purchaser at the time of purchase much like the Cash for Clunkers program (I’d like to suggest they call this the “Greenbacks for Non-Gassers” program).
The president’s second and third initiative are to increase support for battery and electric drive R&D and increase recharging equipment grants to communities. These are both important initiatives as well, but as most dealers will tell you, cash incentives are one of the easiest and fastest ways to drive sales volume. Prior to these announcements, Pike Research has been predicting that the U.S. light duty PEV sales will be just over 232,000 vehicles in 2015. Will these initiatives be enough to boost this market another approximately 770,000 vehicles that year? It seems unlikely, but they will certainly move the market in the right direction.
Of course, now the challenge looms of getting this change passed through what is expected to be a very contentious budget season. However, I am optimistic that at least the tax credit will get reformed. | https://www.plugincars.com/print/106759 | 2018-10-15T18:02:16 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Thoughts
I try to help but nothing works
people ask for my advice and it is used against me
maybe my problem is that im so focussed on other problems
i forget about my own
i take it
i cry every night thinking of all the things I caould have stopped
Why do i think if death when all I want is life?
Why does the past still haunt my dreams
The thought of you hating me kills me on the inside | https://www.poemhunter.com/brittany-messersmith/biography/ | 2018-10-15T17:04:51 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Lorraine Rennison
Best Poem of Lorraine Rennison
As God Promised
The pain that you caused me was unbearable,
you made me cry everytime i thought of you,
you stepped into my life for like five seconds,
then stepped out of it.
I missed you,
why did you have to go and dedicate your love to her,
who cannot possibly love you like i do?
I know it took time for me to like you back,
but if you really liked me,
u might probably wait a little while more,
you know girls are fashionably late rite?
I missed the chance,
which flashed before my very eyes.
I was drowned by the pain of regrets
which hurts so ... | https://www.poemhunter.com/lorraine-rennison/poems/ | 2018-10-15T17:46:29 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [

Nicole Baker
Counting. - Poem by Nicole Baker
Im counting the hours hopeing to find away to escape myself at the thought of you.
Im counting the prays as i walk into gods arms of forgivness.
Im still counting the scars of hate, lies and greed you left on my body thinking of
away to hide myself from me and the world.
Im counting my final heartbeats for the love of my family, hopeing for forgivness
but as i lie in my winters grave i cry my final tear.
Im still counting my last breaths and i say this im glad you took me and spared my
sisters. I maybe an angel as many people may call me but im still wispering in my
last breath as death over comed me....
'im still counting on you to save me from me'.

2010 World Series of Poker Day 37: Dan Kelly Wins First WSOP Bracelet and Phil Gordon Wins Ante up For Africa
Day 37 at the World Series of Poker was one of the last before the main event begins on Monday, and it saw Dan Kelly win his first WSOP bracelet, Phil Gordon take down Ante up for Africa and much more.
Event #52: $25,000 No-Limit Hold’em / Six Handed
After four days of play, Dan "djk123" Kelly took home $1,315,518 and a WSOP bracelet by winning the first ever event of its kind.
Kelly's game plan Saturday was apparent, which made the event three-handed.
At that point, Frank Kassela was still trying for a remarkable third bracelet of the Series, but his attempt failed courtesy of an eight-outer that sent him to the cashier's desk in third wouldn't last long. With more than three-quarters of the chips in play in the final pot of the day, Kelly managed to find a three-out ace on the river to eliminate Buchanan as the runner up and put the bracelet around his own wrist.
Check out how the final table played out in our WSOP live reporting pages.
Event #54: $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em
On Saturday, 586 players returned from a starting field of 3,844. When the day ended, only 47 still had a shot at taking home a WSOP bracelet. Leading the way going into Sunday's Day 3 are David Peters, Sean Prendiville, Matthew Schulte, Menhui Chadudhari and Dustin Sorrance-Bowman.
Among those going out with cashes Saturday were Toto Leonidas, Thomas Fuller, Jena Delk, Thuyen Doan, Grayson Ramage, James Dempsey, Chris Klodnicki, Tony Dunst, and husband and wife Jorge and Isabel Carvalho. Later in the evening, we saw George Lind, Al Krux, Mikael Johansseon, Eelke Arjaans, Van Nguyen, and Kara Scott also having realized a small profit in this one.

Event #55: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship
When play began on Saturday, it looked like it could be a historic day for poker with Tom "durrrr" Dwan sitting as the chip leader and an opportunity to win his first WSOP bracelet, and Phil Hellmuth hanging on in search of his 12th WSOP bracelet. Neither succeeded. Both found the rail and will have to wait it out for some new hardware.
The nine remaining players unanimously voted to call it a night and come back on Sunday to play the final table. The field is led by Ludovic Lacay, who has about 2.3 million. He's followed by Daniel Alaei, Dmitry Steimak, Team PokerStars Pro Alexander Kravchenko, and the shortest stack, Migurel Prouix.
Keep your eyes on all the final-table action in our WSOP live reporting pages.
Event #56: $2,500 No-Limit Hold’em
About 75 of the original 1,941 played will come back from Day 3 on Sunday for what is supposed to be the last day of play, and the chip leader is James Mackey who, with over 1 million in chips, has about double the next biggest stack. Mackey will be joined by Jon Turner, Dan Shak, Isaac Baron, Melanie Weisner, Court Harrington and Mike Wattel, who all made it through a long day of poker.
Play will get back under way Sunday afternoon with the original plan being to reach a winner. However, because of the large field, it's likely the final table will not be played until Monday afternoon.

$5,000 Ante Up For Africa Poker Tournament
This year's fourth Annual Ante Up for Africa Charity poker tournament created a prize pool of $408,240. We don't know how much of that money was donated back to the charity, but we do know that champion Phil Gordon donated 100% of his winnings like he did when he made the final table of this event last year.
Gordon was bright red with embarrassment after his win. Most of that was no doubt because runner-up Shannon Elizabeth gave him a hug and then jumped up and wrapped her legs around his waist.
"I know this isn't a bracelet event, but it feels like one," Gordon said in short remarks after the tournament concluded. Elizabeth expressed similar sentiments.
"I wish the rest of my WSOP had gone the way this tournament went," Elizabeth said.
Matt Damon, Jeff French, Motel Williams, David Alan Grier, and Shane Warne were among the celebrities who took the felt, although only Elizabeth represented the Hollywood contingent at the payout cage.
This tournament isn't the only time that players can make donations to and help Ante Up for Africa. Players can also contribute at AnteUpForAfrica.org

4 Ways to
Decorate with Baskets
Baskets are a simple way to add beauty and organization to your home. Pottery Barn has a large selection of baskets, including utility baskets and lidded baskets, in a variety of natural colors to add to your home. You can use them however you wish, but we’ve put together four ways to make your baskets stand out.
1. Create Category Tags
Having several identical baskets to store your items help keep the room clean and organized. However, once everything is put away, remembering where you put everything can be difficult. Brass tags are a decorative way to add labels to your baskets. They have a simple and tasteful design so that you can still enjoy the baskets’ clean look. Add labels to the tags and secure them to the basket using a brass keyring.
2. Use Address Numbers for Style and Function
If the natural look of a basket is too plain, add a small graphic element to the front to give it a modern look. Address numbers are both decorative and functional. You can use the numbers to help identify the baskets and locate the items that you need. Installing them is simple. Decide where you want the number to go and then secure it in place with a screw, nut and washer. If you plan to stack the baskets, add furniture pads to the bottom of each basket to make sliding it in and out easy.
3. Personalize Your Baskets
Give each member of the family his own basket and then personalize the front to keep them separate. This is a simple way to keep everything organized and to beautify your home. Attach blank metal faceplates to the front of each basket in the center, and then write a name tag or note and hold it in place with a magnet. Each member of the family can personalize the basket in his own way. It’s also simple to change the labels if needed.
4. Stencil a Custom Design on Your Baskets
Stenciling allows you to add a bit of creativity to baskets. Lining up painted baskets creates a beautiful scene to go along with the rest of the decor in the room. Simply create a stencil in the shape or design that you desire. Using a stippling brush, dab the paint onto the basket following the outline of the stencil. Use the same colors and shapes on each basket, but be creative with the placement of each shape. | https://www.potterybarn.com/tips-and-ideas/decorating-with-baskets/ | 2018-10-15T17:10:46 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

The Council of the institute or actuaries, while recognizing the skill with which the first text-book, Part I., on Interest, had been written, felt that in some ways it might be made more suitable for the students for whom it was intended. When, therefore, a new edition was needed, they laid the matter before Mr. Todhunter, requesting him to consider it from this point of View, giving him full liberty to act as he might think best. He found it desirable to re-write. | https://www.powells.com/book/institute-of-actuaries-vol-1-9781332144686 | 2018-10-15T17:20:23 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [] |

I have carried and studied this little book (TAO: The Watercourse Way) for 25 years. I bought this copy in 1991 in Bombay, I had just graduated as an Engineer and been studying Ayurveda and Siddha meditative practices for over a decade. Alan Watts gracefully weaves the words of great masters and reflects on the Daoist views. Reading this book made me realize that views of my own Siddha teacher are no different from other traditions, that the roots of all mystical traditions, which focus on inner-work, are entangled and lead to same inner-reality and luminosity. Written words and spoken views are only maps. It inspired me that some day I will explore these entangled roots and maps. And here I am, 25 years later, in 2016 living and breathing through the entangled roots of Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine. Even today Alan Watts’s words resonate with me as loud as it did 25 years ago.
“I tried for years, as a philosopher, but in words it comes all wrong: in black and white with no color… when you try to pin [life] down you get the banality of formal nihilism, wherein the universe is seen as ‘a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.’ But this sense of ‘turning to ashes in one’s mouth’ is the result of trying to grasp something which can come to you of itself.” ~Alan Watts
If learning about entangled healing traditions and paths inspires you then this journey is perfect a opportunity for you: | https://www.pranaji.com/the-watercourse-way/ | 2018-10-15T18:25:56 | CC-MAIN-2018-43 | 1539583509336.11 | [
