BkiUdvnxK2li-DeX0RNK | I would appreciate if this report was submitted seeing as it is a very interesting story. My friends and I went camping to Summerset and we had set up our tent, which was at the edge of the large bush. We had our dinner and soon headed off to bed.
We had stayed up late talking and sleep soon over came us. As I was laying in my bed I heard my friend Kylie wake me up saying "Sara, Sara wake up. Do you hear that?" I opened my eyes to pitch-blackness and listened as hard as I could to the loud stomping noise in the bush. It sounded as if this thing was a person only much, much heavier and it must have had arms because we could hear it snapping the twigs and branches in front of it.
It was getting closer and closer and by this point Kylie and I were up right listening to the chilling noise. We tried to wake up the other two but they were sound asleep and had no idea what was going on. Kylie and I continued to listen and we could hear all the frogs in the creek bed suddenly stop.
Seeing as I live near a creek filled with frogs I hear them croak loudly and my dad and I can't make them all go silent so whatever this thing was out there it must have been so loud and huge to make everything in that creek bed stop at once. Kylie and I started to panic a little.
Our tent was father away from the other tents and we were right on the edge of the bush. We were frantically talking we wanted to turn the torch light on but it would have seen us and the darkness scared us even more, we were talking so loud that it made the thing stop in its tracks as if it were listening to us and we fell dead silent, the most weirdest feeling came over us as if it were right there listening and watching.
the clearing and walked straight past out tent and continued up the mountain. I was just waiting for it to come into the tent luckily it didn't.
We found it hard to sleep that night and by morning we went to investigate and we found rabbit fur in the bush as if there had been a killing but we were unsure if that was any evidence.
completely without a trace he said that some animal must have gotten them. We didn't mention our story because they would have thought of us mad. How could a large cow me manoeuvred over a barbed wire fence by an animal?
It must have been some huge animal to lift a fully grown cow over an eight foot fence. We noticed that all the cows stayed huddled together in tight bunches and cows usually never do this, they stay far away from each other and this was very peculiar behaviour. Who knows what it was out there that night but it was very eerie, whenever we went into the bush we felt as if there was something staring at us continuously and it was enough to make us want to get out of there. Also Kylie and I would hear strange screams during the late afternoons and morning; something was making them up in the high mountains and it sound like T-Rex from the movie Jurassic Park.
Thank you for responding to my e-mail on the yowie encounter. I have found out what date the night was when we heard what was believed to be a yowie. It was on the 10th of October of 2002 at aprox 1:00 am.
The Summerset I am referring to is located in NSW, if you have another reports on this area please e-mail me, also I'm not 100% sure if it was a yowie seeing as I did not see it but all the evidence seems like the action a yowie would do, I have no idea what it was that night but it wasn't a person, a person can't walk through this thick bush at night and so carefully. It was big whatever it was and it was creepy feeling its presence. Thanks once again! | c4 | 2 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
BkiUdJo5qdmC_F6-Os20 | Tommy Barker hears of swift buyers demand for the renowned MOS Homes builders' 210-house scheme, Heathfield, at Carriganarra.
BACK with a bang in Ballincollig are long-established home builders and contractors, Murnane & O'Shea as they really kick off a key 2019 with their 210-home scheme, Heathfield, at Carriganarra, on the city side of the town.
It's set to be one of Cork's larger new homes' developments for the several years, while O'Flynn Construction's Ballinglanna across the city at Glanmire launches early in February, and will have c 600 homes when completed, after approval via the fast track planning system in '18.
Heathfield had a late 2018 pre-launch, with 15 sales then and eight more already this week in the formal launch, mostly to first time buyers. It included notable demand from many FTBs for well-specced, four-bed semis, and handover of the first new builds in the sizeable development with a wide mix of three and four bed homes will be by the start of this summer.
The location, just off the N40 Ballincollig bypass and Ballincollig link road (pic left) is drawing a swift buyer response, says estate agent Elizabeth Hegarty of Savills in the week they launched 21 Heathfield homes, with eight already now reserved, including all of the three-bed semi-ds in this phase: there were just four of these, priced at €320,000.
A further phase of three-bed semis is expected this side of Easter.
Ms Hegarty says the several c 1,490 sq ft four-bed semis, priced at €370,000 were proving very popular, with a much admired ground floor plan, by architects Deady Gahan.
This week's just-released sales included a 1,840 sq ft four-bed detached at €475,000, with another larger detached type of 2,120 sq ft offered at €530,000.
The brick/block built homes hit A2 BER levels, with gas central heating, fitted multi-fuel stoves, PV panels for electricity, and solar panels for hot water.
Developers Murnane & O'Shea are currently active also in Glanmire in a reinvigorated Crawford Woods/The Avenue and Springmount Woods.
With a 50 year track record and several thousands homes in and around metropolitan Cork (including Fota Hill, Moneygourney, Highfield PArk in Ballincollig, and over 300 homes at Fota Rock, Carrigtwohill) MOS Homes/Group even has two Cork HQs, at its native Bantry in West Cork, and at Ballincollig's Link Road.
A Heathfield showhouse, for a four-bed 1,485 sq ft semi-d, will open in about a month's time, according to Savills' Ms Hegarty.
As Cork moves towards a local authority boundary extension, Ballincollig is one of the areas earmarked for residential development by Cork County Council, with over 500 acres zoned, and with current planning in place for more than 600 units on 110 of those acres. Also currently building at scale in Ballincollig is O'Callaghan Properties, which started here in the 1970s, while the town moved from 'satellite' status after the redevelopment of the old military barracks by O'Flynn Construction, who are to build the new Westfield Office Campus, from 2019.
VERDICT: Set for a strong market pick-up. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 1 |

The measurement of reaction times in response to suitable stimuli may provide insight into the separate functional blocks corresponding to diverse speech production mechanisms. The quantitative evaluation of speech motor performance provides useful information for the early detection and long-term monitoring of many neurological diseases. The vocal reaction times (VRTs) technique and its application in the assessment of a group of normal subjects is presented. Speech motor performance and the effect of age were investigated by measuring VRTs and speech duration, in a group of thirty normal subjects divided into three age groups (18-44, 45-59, 60-80). VRTs were measured by using an immediate and delayed reaction stimulation paradigm. Analysis of the acoustic and electromyographic signals indicated that reaction times increased with age in both the immediate and delayed tasks; also the acoustic signal durations increased with age. The analysis of variance showed that the difference between the young and elderly groups was statistically significant. This technique may be considered a useful tool to provide qualitative and quantitative measures of the processes involved in speech production.

BkiUcm_xK1UJ-2RwWLFY | SK Telecom's new CEO Park Jeong-ho told BusinessKorea that his company will invest $9 billion over the next three years in artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), autonomous vehicles, and 5G.
Specifically, Jeong-ho said the company will spend $4.17 billion on a new information communications and technology (ICT) system that will transform the company from a service provider into a platform operator. The company said its ICT system will include big data and storage, autonomous and connected car, smart home and energy management, and media and content.
SK Telecom will spend another $5 billion on its 5G network over the next three years. Jeong-ho said this investment is similar to what SK Telecom spent on its LTE network in 2012.
The company is working closely with Santa Clara, California-based Nvidia to develop its autonomous and connected car systems. The relationship between the two companies was highlighted at the recent Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
In addition, SK Telecom is also working closely with Samsung and Intel, according to Jeong-ho.
At a CES panel on 5G, Alex Choi, CTO and head of corporate R&D at SK Telecom said the company is planning to improve the upstream pipeline of 5G so that the carrier will be able to deliver live broadcasting services.
For example, Choi said the company envisions creating a new media experience by letting consumers upload augmented reality or virtual reality video feeds using 5G.
On the IoT front, SK Telecom's new investment will likely complement its existing IoT networks. The company said earlier this year that it had finished deploying a low-power wide-area (LoRa) network and that the network would work in conjunction with the carriers' LTE CAT-M network that is also intended for IoT applications. SK plans to have 4 million IoT devices on its networks by the end of 2017. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 2 |
BkiUbyDxK7DgtAWezR1w | Easter! Too Good to be True?
What if the story that scripture tells isn't a fairy tale… what if instead, all fairy tales are resonating with and hinting at this singular real story that shapes our history? What if we're created to long for these stories, to recognize them as familiar?
Hold fast to the head, and let your ethics flow from that. Stay immersed in the covenant story and your actions will be shaped by it. Don't need no baggage, don't need no ticket, just get on board.
Memory can trap us. Many of us have memories linked to shame, inadequacy, and pain, like Israel's memory of their broken covenants and spiritual infidelity, and these can paralyze us in bitterness, self-pity, and self-doubt.
This God, He reserves the right to define himself on his own terms. This God, She moves in mysterious ways. This God will not fit into a gendered box, or any other box for that manner. This God shatters any boxes we try to put around them.
So let's run, friends. Let's keep our ears open for the cloud of witnesses. And what's even more important, Let's keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, the Pioneer and Perfector of our faith, he's out in front and also bringing up the rear, Christ before us, Christ behind us. | c4 | 4 | 2 | 5 | 2 |
BkiUfoA5qhDCiqRdLWPl | Interstate 880 South - Interstate 80 to Interstate 238
Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south
Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south splits from Interstate 580 on the transition ramp from westbound Interstate 80. Photo taken 11/26/04.
Ramps fly over and around Interstate 880, lending credence to the unofficial name of this interchange (The Maze). Photo taken 11/26/04.
The first exit along Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south is Exit 44, West Grand Avenue and Seventh Street in Oakland. This picture was taken along the Cypress segment of the Nimitz Freeway, which opened in 1998 to replace the section that collapsed in the October 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake. This new alignment of Interstate 880 takes the freeway further west, closer to the bayshore than the collapsed segment did. This realignment removed a physical and psychological barrier through the Cypress neighborhood of Oakland. Photo taken 11/26/04.
Southbound Interstate 880 reaches Exit 44, West Grand Avenue and Seventh Street in Oakland. This is the first reassurance overhead signage along southbound after the Maze interchange (Interstates 80 and 580). As shown on the photo, it was raining on this day. Photo taken 11/26/04.
The next three exits along Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south are: Exit 42, Broadway to California 260 south to Alameda and California 61 south; Exit 40, 16th Avenue and Embarcadero; and Exit 39B, 23rd Avenue. Photo taken 11/26/04.
Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) passes under the Bay Area Rapid Transit line, which is preparing to cross the San Francisco Bay via its transbay tube. Photo taken 11/26/04.
The next exit along southbound is Exit 42, California 260 south to Alameda. Photo taken 11/26/04.
Use Exit 42/Broadway to reach Jack London Square, downtown Oakland, Union Street, the Bay Area Rapid Transit Station, Chinatown, the U.S.S. Hornet, and College of Alameda. Photo taken 11/26/04.
There is space on this overhead sign for a California 260 or California 61 shield, but neither is listed. Photo taken 11/26/04.
This suite of photos shows the maze-like transition from southbound Interstate 880 to southbound California 260/California 61 in Oakland. Use California 260/California 61 southwest to the city of Alameda. Pay close attention to the signs! Note that California 61 (260) is not mentioned until nearly the last sign. Photos taken 04/04/04.
Still on the frontage road parallel to Interstate 880, this left exit from the frontage road takes traffic onto the Webster Street tube toward Alameda. Making a left here seems counter-intuitive when you are trying to head south , but it is necessary to allow the highway to go down enough to reach the tubes under the ship channel that separates Oakland from Alameda. Photo taken 04/04/04.
Returning to the mainline, the downtown Oakland skyline comes into view on the new viaduct. The city of Oakland is the eighth-largest city in California (2000 Census population: 399,484 people) and contains 78.2 square miles (including water). Oakland was founded in 1852, contains dozens of villages with distinct identities, and is growing in population. Photo taken 11/26/04.
The connecting ramp from Interstate 980 west to Interstate 880 comes into view next on southbound. There is no access from Interstate 880 south to Interstate 980 east. Photo taken 11/26/04.
Signage for the end of Interstate 980 can be seen from Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south. Photo taken 11/26/04.
After the Alameda exit, traffic from Interstate 980 west merges onto Interstate 880 south. There is no access from Interstate 880 south to Interstate 980 east. After the merge, this mileage sign provides the distance to the next three exits, all of which serve Oakland: Exit 40, 16th Avenue/Embarcadero; Exit 39B, 23rd Avenue; and Exit 39A, 29th Avenue/Fruitvale Avenue. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Traffic from Oak Street joins Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Interstate 880 passes through the warehouse and industrial areas of Oakland. To the northeast of Interstate 880 is Laney College, and to the south is the 9th Avenue Terminal. The Union Pacific Railroad straddles Interstate 880 through here, furthering the industrial feel of this area. The bridge carries Interstate 880 south over the Lake Merritt Channel, which connects the Inner Harbor with Lake Merritt. Photos taken 07/04/06.
Traffic from 10th Avenue and the Embarcadero merge onto Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south. Oddly, no additional guide signs are posted for the pending interchange with 16th Avenue. Photo taken 07/04/06.
After the on-ramp from 10th Avenue and the Embarcadero, a reassurance shield for Interstate 880 south is posted. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 40, 16th Avenue. To connect with 16th Avenue east, one must exit here onto southbound Embarcadero, then proceed to the sharp left turn to 16th Avenue - which is the overpass over Interstate 880 ahead. Only a substandard exit sign remains here, so an eventual sign replacement is likely at this location in the future. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Continuing south, Interstate 880 passes under the 16th Avenue overcrossing. Use Exit 39B to Coast Guard Island, a small island in the Inner Harbor that is used by the United States Coast Guard. Access is achieved via Dennison Street west to the Coast Guard Island gate. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Under the 16th Avenue overcrossing, an advance guide sign for Oakland International Airport advises that either Exit 36 (Hegenberger Road) or Exit 35 (98th Avenue) may be used for the connection to the airport. The airport is four miles south of here. This sign is unusual for three reasons: first because it showcases an exit number for exits that are four miles distant, second because it shows two exit numbers, and third because neither Hegenberger Road nor 98th Avenue are mentioned on this advance sign. It might be more effective to convert this sign to an overhead and mention both street names. Photo taken 07/04/06.
This mileage sign provides the distance to the next three exits on Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south: Exit 39B, 23rd Avenue; Exit 39A, 29th Avenue/Fruitvale Avenue; and Exit 38, California 77/42nd Avenue freeway to California 185 (International Boulevard) and High Street west to Alameda. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Continuing south, Interstate 880 barely passes between these two aging industrial buildings with four lanes in each direction. The freeway has no shoulders and limited sight distance due to the proximity of these buildings. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 39B, 23rd Avenue. Photo taken 07/04/06.
This mileage sign provides the distance to the next three exits on Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south: Exit 39A, 29th Avenue/Fruitvale Avenue; Exit 38, California 77/42nd Avenue freeway to California 185 (International Boulevard) and High Street west to Alameda; and Exit 37, 66th Avenue. Photo taken 07/04/06.
A pair of steel girder bridges cross Interstate 880. The first (shown in the previous photo) is for 23rd Avenue south, and this one is for 23rd Avenue north. Photo taken 07/04/06.
To Patten University, use Exit 39A and follow the signs to Fruitvale Avenue northeast. The small Christian college sits on the east side of Fruitvale Avenue between 23rd Street and Logan Street. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 39A, 29th Avenue/Fruitvale Avenue. The next exit is Exit 38, California 77/42nd Street northeast to California 185 (International Boulevard) and High Street west to Alameda. Direct ramps at Exit 38 connect to California 77 and to High Street. Photo taken 07/04/06.
This mileage sign provides the distance to the next three exits on Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south: Exit 38, California 77/42nd Avenue freeway to California 185 (International Boulevard) and High Street west to Alameda; Exit 37, 66th Avenue/Zhone Way; and Exit 36, Hegenberger Road (first Oakland International Airport exit). Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 38, California 77/42nd Avenue freeway to California 185 (International Boulevard) and High Street west to Alameda. This exit is only signed for High Street because that is the most logical connection for southbound traffic; however, there is a ramp that connects to California 77 for local Oakland traffic. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Looking at the transition ramp, the left lane of the ramp connects to unsigned California 77/42nd Avenue freeway northeast to California 185 (International Boulevard). The right lane connects to High Street west to Alameda. Despite what the sign says, the short California 77 freeway connector is not High Street and is part of a much longer proposed freeway that would have crossed Oakland northeast past Interstate 580 via an alignment roughly parallel to High Street, then cross the hills into Redwood Regional Park and Contra Costa County. The proposed route of California 77 is still on the books, but it is unlikely to ever be constructed beyond the short section between Interstate 880 and California 185. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Continuing south, the next two exits along Interstate 880 south (Exit 37, 66th Avenue and Exit 36, Hegenberger Road) serve Oakland Coliseum, which is currently known as McAfee Coliseum. Look for the coliseum on the left. The Oakland Coliseum contains an arena for the National Basketball League's Golden State Warriors and a stadium for the Major League Baseball Oakland Athletics (A's) and the National Football League's Oakland Raiders. Photo taken 07/04/06.
An Interstate 880 south reassurance shield assembly is posted after the on-ramp from 42nd Avenue and High Street. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The left four lanes will continue south on Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) through Oakland, while the right lane will have an optional exit to Exit 37, 66th Avenue/Zhone Way. Although most of these signs are only a few years old, none of them feature exit numbers. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Use Exit 37 to Zhone Way, which travels west to the Martin Luther King, Jr. Regional Shoreline and San Leandro Bay, which is formed between Alameda to the west, Oakland to the east, and Oakland International Airport to the south. Water streams into the bay from the Inner Harbor to the north, San Leandro Channel to San Francisco Bay to the west, and San Leandro Creek from the south. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Air and road traffic delays are possible at Oakland International Airport, including limited parking. Turn to AM 1700 to find out the conditions before entering the airport property. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 37, Zhone Way west and 66th Avenue east. Note that the number five lane is exit only, while the number four lane is optional for the exit. Use 66th Avenue east to the McAfee (Oakland) Coliseum complex and to the Melrose and Seminary communities of the city of Oakland. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Prior to passing under Zhone Way and 66th Avenue, another advance guide sign for Oakland International Airport. Similar to the one posted at the 16th Avenue interchange, this sign advises that either Exit 36, Hegenberger Road or Exit 35, 98th Avenue may be used for access to Oakland's busy international airport. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The Oakland (McAfee) Coliseum complex comes into view on the east side of the Nimitz Freeway. The arena (home of the Golden State Warriors) is located immediately adjacent to the freeway and is visible here. Photo taken 07/04/06.
An Interstate 880 south reassurance shield assembly is posted after the 66th Avenue/Zhone Way interchange on-ramp. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Use Exit 35, Hegenberger Road to the Oakland Coliseum (McAfee Coliseum) complex and to Oakland International Airport. The airport is located to the southwest of Interstate 880, while the coliseum is found to the east of Interstate 880. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The right lane becomes exit only for Exit 36, Hegenberger Road. Follow Hegenberger Road southwest to Oakland International Airport and northeast to the coliseum and the Eastmont community of the city of Oakland. Hegenberger Road is a major arterial and has an expressway section from here south to the airport and also northeast to its junction with California 185 (International Boulevard). At International Boulevard, Hegenberger Road ends and changes into 73rd Street. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 36, Hegenberger Road. While there is no direct access from the Hegenberger Road/73rd Street corridor to Interstate 580/MacArthur Freeway or California 13 (Warren Freeway), there is a long-standing plan for California 13 to be extended southwest from its current terminus at Interstate 580 to Oakland International Airport, perhaps using part of Hegenberger Road. Such a connection appears unlikely to be built at this time, but the sections of Hegenberger Road southwest of California 185 could easily be incorporated into any state highway given its construction to expressway levels along the route. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The next exit on Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south is Exit 35, 98th Avenue west to Ron Cowan Parkway and Oakland International Airport and east to the Brookfield Village and Elmhurst communities of the city of Oakland. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The right lane of Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south becomes exit only for Exit 35, 98th Avenue to Ron Cowan Parkway. An exit number was pasted onto the existing non-reflective button copy sign. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 35, 98th Avenue west to Oakland International Airport (Ron Cowan Parkway) and east to the Brookfield Village and Elmhurst communities of the city of Oakland.

At the top of the ramp from Interstate 880 south to Exit 35, 98th Avenue (east to Ron Cowan Parkway and Oakland International Airport) is this traffic signal. Photo taken 07/04/06.
An Interstate 880 south reassurance shield is posted shortly after the on-ramp from 98th Avenue. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The next exit on Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south is Exit 34, California 112/Davis Street to San Leandro. This sign refers to "San Leandro" as "Downtown" even though no sign has yet mentioned that Interstate 880 is entering a new city. Signed as California 61, east-west California 112 connects to California 185/14th Street to the east and California 61 (Doolittle Drive) to the west. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Shortly thereafter, Interstate 880 leaves Oakland and enters the city of San Leandro. Home to 79,452 people per the 2000 Census, San Leandro is a southern suburb of Oakland, located between Oakland and unincorporated San Lorenzo. Incorporated as a town on March 21, 1872, San Leandro functioned briefly as the county seat of Alameda County prior to the 1868 Earthquake (when the courthouse at the intersection of Clarke Street and Davis Street was destroyed, and the county seat moved to Oakland). Photo taken 07/04/06.
The next four exits all serve the city of San Leandro: Exit 34, California 112/Davis Street; Exits 33B-A, Marina Boulevard west and east; and Exit 31, Interstate 238 south (east) to Castro Valley and Stockton, with a connection to north-south Washington Avenue afforded via Exit 31. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 34, California 112/Davis Street. California 112 is signed as California 61 since it is a continuation of the signed route. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The Interstate 880/California 112 Separation is a steel deck girder bridge. Davis Street crosses over Interstate 880. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The next exits along southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) are Exits 33B-A, Marina Boulevard. Use Marina Boulevard west (Exit 33B) to the Mulford Gardens community of San Leandro. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The next exits along southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) are Exits 33B-A, Marina Boulevard. Use Marina Boulevard west to the Mulford Gardens community of San Leandro. To the east, Marina Boulevard connects to Washington Avenue and California 185/14th Street. Photo taken 07/04/06.
An exit number sign is posted for Exit 33A, Marina Boulevard east to the auto mall. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Marina Boulevard (Exit 33B) travels west to San Leandro Marina. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The next four exits are: Exit 33B, Marina Boulevard west; Exit 33A, Marina Boulevard east; Exit 31, Interstate 238 south (east) to Castro Valley and Stockton (and Washington Avenue); Exit 30, Lewelling Boulevard; and Exit 29, A Street. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) reaches Exit 33B, Marina Boulevard west. This sign is posted on the Williams Street overcrossing. Photo taken 07/04/06.
A pair of porcelain enamel signs grace the Marina Boulevard overcrossing as Interstate 880 (Nimitz Freeway) south splits with Exit 33A, Marina Boulevard east (loop ramp). The next four exits on southbound are Exit 33A, Marina Boulevard east (not shown on the interchange sequence sign); Exit 31, Interstate 238 south (east) to Castro Valley, Interstate 580 east to Stockton, and Washington Avenue; and Exit 30, Lewelling Boulevard. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The next exit along southbound Interstate 880 is Exit 31, Interstate 238. This is a major interchange for a variety of reasons. First, Interstate 238 is the only freeway connector between Interstate 880 and Interstate 580 before Interstate 580 turns to the east toward Altamont Pass and the Central Valley. Second, Interstate 238 is part of the through truck route for trucks prohibited from using Interstate 580 in Oakland. Third, Interstate 238 is part of the freeway connection from California 92/San Mateo Bridge to Interstate 580. Finally, this interchange provides a local connection to Washington Avenue and provides a connection to California 185 (Mission Boulevard) via Interstate 238 south (east). Even though Interstate 238 is signed north-south, the freeway portion travels due east-west. Photo taken 07/04/06.
This reassurance shield for Interstate 880 south is posted shortly after the Marina Boulevard interchange and prior to the junction with Interstate 238. Photo taken 07/04/06.
The right two lanes connect to Interstate 238 east, while the left four lanes continue south on Interstate 880. After this interchange, Interstate 880 will depart San Leandro and enter unincorporated San Lorenzo, then enter Hayward at Exit 29/A Street. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Southbound Interstate 880 reaches Exit 31, Interstate 238. Use this ramp to Washington Avenue as well. Interstate 238 is an unusual Interstate Highway because it possesses a number that does not follow the numbering rules, since there is no Interstate 38. However, given that all x80 routes were used (including California 180 in Fresno and California 480 in San Francisco), the decision was made to let this important connecting route keep the same number as its prior state route designation. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Now on the transition (collector distributor) ramp from Interstate 880 south to Interstate 238 east, a short exit ramp is provided for the connection to Washington Avenue. Use Washington Avenue north to San Leandro and south to San Lorenzo. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Incoming traffic from Washington Avenue joins the collector distributor lanes. An overhead for the mainline advises of the pending interchange with Exit 31, Lewelling Boulevard to San Lorenzo. Photo taken 07/04/06.
Through traffic on Interstate 880 south should merge right. The left two lanes pass under Interstate 880 and follow Interstate 238 east to unincorporated Castro Valley, Stockton, and Fresno. Notably, Interstate 238 does not even come close to entering either of these cities, and neither does Interstate 580. However, Interstate 580 offers connections to California 99 north to Stockton and south to Fresno. Interstate 238 is signed "south" because it changes into California 238 after the interchange with Interstate 580; California 238 follows Mission Boulevard south to a junction with Interstate 680. Photo taken 07/04/06.

BkiUfIs5qsFCgpxUVjMj | There are few award shows that I love quite as much at MTV's Video Music Awards. There are certain things you can expect to get from the VMAs that you might not get anywhere else. I'm talking about major celebrity clap backs (Miley, what's good?!), insane performances that once involved a life snake and green bikini, and, of course, the infamous Kanye West/Taylor Swift collision that started a narrative that Swift wants to be excluded from. All of this doesn't even mention the many video music awards that the show gives away, hence the purpose of the MTV show. With so much to unpack in this award show, you may wonder just how long are the MTV VMAs this year? They have to be long enough to get in all of the music, drama, and more.
According to the official MTV VMAs website, the award show will begin at 9 p.m. ET on Aug. 28 and air live from Madison Square Garden in New York City. According to the schedule made available by MTV, the show will air a pre-show that begins at 5 p.m. that same day. As far as we can tell from the calendar, the pre-show, which may feature red carpet interviews and arrivals, will lead directly up to the official show. However, you may notice one interesting discrepancy on the site: According to MTV's calendar, the VMas will begin at 8:30 p.m., even though the official announcement from the network has the VMAs starting live at 9 p.m. That could mean the pre-show will be extended until the show is ready to start.
As for the actual length of the award show, you better be down to park it on the couch. According to the calendar, the MTV VMAs will last two and a half hours. It may seem like a long award show, but given the history of insanity at the VMAs, you know that it'll totally be worth feeling like a couch potato. After all, you don't want to miss any of the potential pop culture moments happening here — and you know there could be plenty. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 1 |

BkiUdik5qhLBXU5kwMwv | Another tar ponds cleanup delay?
FEDERAL Environment Minister Stephane Dion's choice of an independent panel review of the Sydney tar ponds cleanup plan is a puzzling, yet not surprising, decision.
Ottawa claims the review will allow the fullest public involvement. Yet the alternative, a comprehensive study of the $400-million cleanup by consultants, to be reviewed by Environment and Public Works, also would have given the public ample opportunity for input. Besides, the entire JAG process - which has worked on this issue since 1996 - was designed to be publicly driven. The final result of JAG's efforts was the cleanup plan announced earlier this year.
The Cape Breton regional council, local district health authority and many community groups joined the province in backing the study approach, arguing that after two decades spent on the problem - including hundreds of meetings, studies and more than $130 million - it was time to get on with the cleanup. The loudest dissenter was the Sierra Club, which panned the burying and burning proposed, instead favouring soil-washing.
Whether Ottawa acted to avoid a lawsuit from environmentalists, as some say, or to ensure the controversial plan had the most stringent review, Mr. Dion's decision will not change. He has vowed the review must be done by June 2006, and any suggested alternatives stay within budget. If that doesn't happen, Ottawa will be to blame for the latest delay in a never-ending saga. | c4 | 4 | 2 | 5 | 2 |
BkiUfZu6NNjgBpvIDlQz | Yellowstone investigators seeking to identify woman who was filmed approaching grizzly bears

(NEXSTAR) — She escaped without injury, but just bearly.
Officials at Yellowstone National Park are asking for the public's help in identifying a woman who was filmed approaching a female grizzly bear and her cubs earlier this month.
'Friends': The one with the truth about Ross and Rachel
The incident occurred at the Roaring Mountain parking lot on May 10, just before 5 p.m., according to Yellowstone National Park. In the footage, the unidentified woman can be seen standing relatively close to the bears, holding her phone as if to take a picture. The mama bear then bluff-charges the woman (i.e., bounds toward her as if to "scare or intimidate" her), effectively causing the woman to turn and back away.
"The unidentified woman is described as white, mid-30s, brown hair, and wearing black clothing," park officials stated in a Facebook post shared earlier this week. Investigators are also asking anyone with information that could aid their investigation to contact the National Park Service's Investigative Services Branch.
"You don't have to tell us who you are, but please tell us what you know," the Facebook post concluded.
Park officials did not disclose what the woman would be charged with, if anything.

Visitors to Yellowstone National Park, or any National Park, are urged to keep at least 100 yards from bears at all times, and to "never approach a bear to take a photo," according to the National Park Service. Guests are also prohibited from feeding bears or allowing the animals to touch or approach their cars. Additional bear safety information can be found at the National Park Service's website.
"Your safety cannot be guaranteed, but you can play an active role in protecting yourself and the bears people come here to enjoy," Yellowstone warns on its website.

BkiUfOrxK19JmejM_XkR | With this little gem on the story behind Annie Dillard's 1975 Pulitzer-winning classic, Pilgrim at Tinker's Creek, the British paper, The Guardian, once again shows why its inspired, wide-angled coverage of books is almost without peer. "Dillard is not, like many nature writers, an epiphany-hound," the writer nicely notes. And this marvelous paper has a similar ethos: it cites no trumped-up news "hook" or other synthetic "angle" to tell a good story. It leaves all that to its many hack competitors. And that keeps me, and lots of other satisfied book-lovers, coming back again and again.
Groups like MoveOn are fundamentally echo chambers for Volvo Democrats whose lives aren't much affected by whether a Democrat or a Republican is in the White House, and who think it's a politically significant act to go with an audience of like-minded souls to view a flockumentary like Fahrenheit 9/11 or Outfoxed, to set their TiVo to Jon Stewart's The Daily Show, or to pass around lefty spam containing fiery warnings of creeping fascism. A far more challenging exercise after the election would have been for MoveOn to order its troops to meet with and listen to ten people who disagreed with them -- instead of talking, as usual, only to one another.
And in the April Harper's Mag (not online, unfortunately, so get thee to a library), Michael Hudson nicely dissects the Bush team's Social Security scam. The headline tells much of the story: "The $4.7-Trillion Pyramid--Why Social Security Won't Be Enough to Save Wall Street." The author, an econ professor at the University of Missouri, argues that "what Bush seeks to manufacture is a boom--or, more accurately, a bubble--bankrooled by the last safe pile of cash in America today. His plan is a Ponzi scheme, and in that scheme it is Social Security that is being played for the last sucker." The good news: it looks as though GWB's falling poll numbers are pretty well ending Karl Rove's grand scheme to gut this centerpiece of FDRs' legacy. The bad news: that means we'll less frequently be able to enjoy hearing the manic cable-news yakker Chris Matthews say "Sosh Security."
And speaking of Chris Matthews, he's scheduled to serve as Case's commencement speaker this spring. But I think John Carroll's commencement speaker is a far better choice: Jim Wallis, the longtime editor of the splendid faith-based magazine Sojourners. His new book, 'God's Politics: Why the Right Gets it Wrong, and the Left Doesn't Get It,' wonderfully tackles the media-inspired myth that people of faith in this country are all political conservatives. Do take a scan of it when next you find yourself at a bookstore--preferably one of those hearty survivors, the half dozen independents left in the Cleveland area. | c4 | 4 | 3 | 5 | 2 |
BkiUchzxK0zjCxN_sm6Y | Intrasexual Competition and Height in Adolescents and Adults - Essay Example
The article discusses the relationship between intrasexual competition and height in different age groups that is the adults and adolescents. The paper also gives the impacts it has on different relations. According to the article, height is a significant component that contributes to intrasexual completion between same sexes as well as intersexual completion between opposite sex. The report shows tall men are view as strong and capable of protection as compared to their fellow men that are shorter. Height in men can lead to competition in various ways such as in attracting the opposite sex and in reproduction. The tall men attract more women than those who are shorter. Their height gives them more advantage when it comes to finding a mate as they are perceived to be sturdy and attractive to the female gender. The taller and the shorter men, on the other hand, are not very competitive in both the intersexual and intersexual competition since they are believed to have specific medical issues. Due to that reason, they do not attract the opposite sex very much for the fear that when you reproduce with them, the offspring are likely to have the same medical problems. Since they are also considered to be weak as compared to the tall fellows, there is that perception that they cannot offer much protection. The tall men, therefore, have numerous advantages in both the intersexual and intrasexual competition. Their fellow men can envy them in many ways. They are completion when it comes to attracting a mate than the others. The research done on the topic showed that the completion in the intrasexual is much higher among the male adolescents than among the adults. The young male with height is more intrasexual competitive with their peers.
The intrasexual competition among females is also discussed in the article. Women have intrasexual competition among them, but they are not as aggressive as the male counterparts. They compete in attracting and retaining the best mates. They do not engage in a physical confrontation as the male could do since it can result in physical damage and high cost for fitness. Therefore, they engage in competitor derogation as a way of competition to acquire a mate among them. That method is more of a subtle mechanism than of physical confrontation. There is a significant difference between the sexes on the parental investments where women invest more and but have a lower reproductive rate than men which increases the intrasexual competition among men. The height issue among women is a little different as many women prefer to have a mate that is taller than them which chooses a mate to depend on their height. Their mate just has to be taller than them and not necessarily be on the average tallness among his male fellows. Women tend to focus more on their attractiveness and not the height in attracting a mate. That means they compete more on the physical beauty among them. The differences in aggression, as well as the height among the sexes, are believed to arise as consequences in the intensity of the intrasexual competition. According to the present research done on the topic also shows that the intrasexual competition among the female adolescents is higher compared to that of the adults.
Evolutionary Effect on the Embodied Beauty of Landscape Architectures
The article is based on the research done based on the effects of evolution on the embodied beauty of the landscape architectures. According to the paper, the sense of beauty is described to be associated with environmental adaptation as well as agility of human beings based on the framework of the evolutionary aesthetics. The sense of beauty as defined based on the ecological adaptation and the human beings` plasticity both has a biological foundation and adaptive value. According to the previous studies done on the topic, show that organisms obtain benefits from the landscape. The report entails the experiment that was done to determine the whether or not the benefits that are received from the landscape could draw out a sense of beauty that is stronger. The study was as well meant to investigate what was the nature of that sense of beauty. The experiment was done was done with a viewing of classical landscape and non-landscape architectural photographs. According to the author, aesthetic preference, as well as perception, are considered to be one of the developing behaviors of environmental adaptation since they have biological groundings and are viewed as conducive to reproduction and human survival. It is suggested that people may have an innate preference of a landscape for an instant the savanna that was used in the article as an example. The researchers provided evidence to support they hypothesized based on the innate preference of savanna which was confirmed by the younger generation by preferring a photograph of savanna than that of other biomes. That finding is doubted by researchers based on other findings on an experiment done by other students of similar age on other landscapes in comparison to savanna. That leads them to assume that maybe a preference for the environment could be a cumulative process and might change during human`s life cycle. The argument for innate preference may be considered weak but based on some features that are essential for human reproduction and survival such as green vegetation, and clean water can make such aesthetic perception and preference more convincing. According to other numerous studies, people could obtain benefits from a natural environment that contain healthy plants and water regarding positive emotional experience, cognitive processing, social interaction as well as psychological health. It is stated in the resent findings that beauty could be personified and represented as an absolute experience or mental stimulation. The argument was supported by other pieces of evidence that entailed human drawings while dancing was more preferred as compared to those that they were in a static motion that effect was due to the simulation of movement. The movement elicited human quality and recurring situational experience. The finding in the neurological studies discovered that the artistic evaluation of visual stimulation naturally brought out activation of motor-related areas. According to the findings of the research, it was recommended that aesthetic judgment or perception could be associated with the generation of personified simulation of action and hat approaching motivation of beauty. In the present studies done, it was discovered that there is no significant difference between no landscape architecture and landscape architecture photographs based on the ratings of aesthetic feelings scores.
Cultural fit of emotions and health implications: A psychosocial resources model
The article is about the relationship between cultural norms about emotions, psychology, and health. The author explains that there is a connection between cultural practice and emotions. The way in which emotions are perceived and processed are different based on the diverse cultural practices. Some cultural values and traditions determine social relation which is different depending on the community. Processing and expressing emotions vary depending on the community`s cultural values and norms. According to the article, the research was done based on the analysis of emotional perception between Western cultures and East Asia cultures. In the Western cultures, people are encouraged to process their emotions openly as well as express them. Outer showing of emotions is something personal and independent and perceived as something ordinary and right based on their cultural behaviors and practice. Some expression of feelings is considered to be right in some culture while they are wrong in other cultures. In the East Asia culture, the outer appearance is against their culture. People are expected to suppress their emotions for the better of the community. The culture based on emotional expression is interdependent where an individual has to think of community at large if the expression of emotion will cause conflict. In the Western Culture, positive emotions are good and encouraged in the community while in East Asia; negative emotions are perceived as good and encouraged. The Asians believe that positive feeling can cause reluctance is somebody`s performance while negative emotions will inspire someone to work harder.
Adhering to cultural norms and practices leads to emotional balance which in return is believed to result in good health. Following the cultural traditions is also related to the psychological state of an individual's mind. Cultural values influence the rational response of an individual, for instance, the mind knows what an acceptable and unacceptable behavior based on their cultural norms is. A person who is in the right psychological frame of mind is believed to have good health. Cultural fit of emotion is when the pattern of an individual`s feeling is in concurrence with the emotional models that are preferred in their given cultural context. Cultural fit of a person and the social approval patterns have been related to various psychological constructions such as identity, goals, values, and personality with consideration to the adaptive outcome. On the other hand, the cultural fit of emotion can be relevant to health since it coordinates behavioral, motivational, and psychological patterns that impact the downstream health outcome. Studies have shown the relation and involvement between the emotions and the biological mechanism associated with a health outcome. The study has come up with models that can be followed or used shortly in the study between the relation of culture, emotions, and health. It is known as the psychological model. There are the cultural psychology and health psychology. The model is based on how cultural emotion patterns based on the psychological resources can result in a good health outcome. It goes deeper in the connection between emotional pathways that are connected with the health outcome.
Exploring the Great Schism in the Social Sciences: Confirmation Bias and the Interpretation of Results Relating to Biological Influences on Human Behavior and Psychology
The article is based on the on-going debate between social and biological scientist concerning the role of biological influence in the growth of behavioral as well as psychological traits. The biologists normally dismiss the Nature-nurture argument as a false division since all phenotypic characteristics are as a result of compound processes of environmental interactions and gene. According to the article, many people have suggested that the debate is as a result of ideological driven biases in the analysis of the results. The ones that support biological methods are accused of having the willingness to welcome the biological explanations so that they can rationalize and justify the status quo of disparity. However, those that are against the biological methods are accused of possessing the unwillingness to agree to the biological explanations so that they can point inequality exclusively to institutional as well as social factors that eventually welcome the possibility of social equality. Social scientists that are biologically orientated tend to follow many theories and, methods that are from animal literature. The human study suggests that they have similar features while the explanation appealing to the biological pathways are always less acceptable for the human character than that of the animal character. That only explains that humans display an exceptional level of behavioral flexibility that is motivated by distinctively essential capabilities of fluid reasoning as well as social learning such as culture. That has resulted in the...

When you are betting, it is common that you will go for the long odds so that you can earn more money. That is the whole reason why you better right? Statistics show that the only way that you can make a long-term benefit from gambling is by placing a long-term bet. The best way that you can earn from it is by studying a team's stats.
How to use the teams stats?
Not every team performs the same every season. Their players may not be in good form, or suffer from injuries. You need to know which team is playing on that particular day, and the team's recent form.
When you are placing a football bet, it is vital to analyse the team's quality. This will, in turn, help you accurately predict the outcome of a match. Football stats can merely be defined as a set of records which will help you in every aspect of football betting.
There are a lot of football stats which can come in handy such as total goals scored, disciplinary record, new form guides and head to head records. This means that you should not jump right into jumping without having a look at football teams. Even if a team is playing home or away, it is something that you should consider while you are betting.
Every football match which you're going to watch there's always going to be some stats that are recorded. For every yellow card which is given in a football match is a football stat which will affect your betting slip.

The question then is, which football stats should you consider when you are placing a bet? It is straightforward you should analyse the chances that are relevant to a particular match. For instance when you want to put a bet of total-goals, then you should explain the number of goals that both teams have scored in the past six to 10 games. Also, you can also tell the number of scores that a particular player has scored in the previous matches. This will help increase your betting profits.
However, the best way that you can analyse football stats is by signing up to a football database. You can also decide to download a football stats app which will be your cheat sheet. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 2 | 2 |

This was at a media event at the Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch for the new Camaro Convertible and 2.0L Turbo Coupe. While there, they were expecting Chevrolet to unveil something special. Little did everyone know, it would be the new ZL1! After a short embargoed briefing, they hopped in for an adrenalin pumping lap around the raceway! Since they weren't allowed to video/photograph anything at the event, Chevrolet provided journalists with plenty of media and B-roll.

BkiUfO_xaKgQWseFxMBN | For the last several months I noticed that Kelly has been leaving his door open all throughout the day – even when he is in meetings or at lunch. In my last two years of working at Jenco I've never known him to have his door open all day – he'd shut it during meetings or when he was super busy, but now it's open 90% of the time. So I asked him, what gives?
After my conversation with Kelly he challenged me to do some research and share my findings.
If your door is open people will be more likely to stop in when they need something.
I've found that keeping my door open has allowed me to learn about things that were happening within our company that I would have never known if my door had been closed. If people feel like they can drop in, they will, especially if they need your opinion on an issue they are having. These conversations are a great opportunity for you to gain a better understanding of what's happening within the company.
People who shut their doors are really closing themselves out from the rest of the company, because people don't feel like they can come and talk to them. This results in emails, lots and lots of emails.. (Again, waste of….. motion, transportation and excess processing). It's so much faster (and easier) to just walk down the hall and ask a question, but if the door is closed many resort to email.
Great example – There were a few of us meeting in Kelly's office a few weeks back and Kelly said, "Get with Joe this week about xyz." Kelly's door was open during the meeting and it turns out Joe's was as well because he popped in towards the end of our meeting and gave me the information I needed. Awesome!
Open doors create a relaxed workplace. No one has to wonder what others are talking about, or get anxious when their called into the principal's (I mean boss') office. There are no super-secret meetings going on, which reduces anxiety, lowers the intimidation factor and makes everyone more approachable. We are a transparent company to all of our customers – including our employees.
So how have I done keeping my door open? I've noticed I get more done because my door is open 98% of the time. I definitely noticed that I have people in my office a lot, but I'm getting a lot accomplished in a shorter amount of time.
I've also gotten into the habit of walking to whoever I need to speak with for a few minutes instead of sending an email. In the last month or so, I've noticed my fellow colleagues doing the same.
Lastly, in the last few months I've learned a lot about the people I work with and the company. I've been able to partake in projects and give my input on things that I wouldn't have even known about if my door was closed.
So now I challenge you – purposefully make yourself available and transparent to those you work with by keeping your door open. Something so simple could have such a deep impact on your work life.

BkiUdcE4uBhhxJVAbj9B | Derżele (lit. Darželiai) – wieś na Litwie, w okręgu olickim, w rejonie orańskim, w gminie Marcinkańce. Na rok 2021 wieś była zamieszkiwana przez 39 osób. Leży blisko granicy z Białorusią.
Historia
W latach międzywojennych miejscowość znalazła się początkowo w strefie pasa neutralnego, który w lutym 1923 w myśl decyzji Rady Ambasadorów przyznano Polsce i (bez formalnego statusu gminy) dołączono do przyległego powiatu grodzieńskiego w woj. białostockim. Dopiero w 1925 roku z omawianego obszaru (oraz z południowej części dawnej gminy Orany) powstała nowa gmina Marcinkańce w powiecie grodzieńskim w woj. białostockim, w skład której weszły Derżele. 16 października 1933 Derżele (wraz z miejscowościami Grzybowla, Morgiewicze i Kanały) utworzyły gromadę Derżele w gminie Marcinkańce
Po wojnie miejscowość włączono do Litewskiej SRR w ZSRR. Od 1991 w niezależnej Litwie.

BkiUdbg5qWTA_7kew_2s | Are you wondering where I've been? Sometimes I've wondered the same thing, what with some of the challenges I've faced. Losing my dog was the worst. Adjusting to the life style was a daily challenge. The thing that worked for me was realizing that this is my first year/season and I have a HUGE learning curve to overcome. At least the learning curve is huge for me. I can't speak for the rest of you.
Now that the season is behind me, even though I'm still at the Voyager in Tucson, I can look back on it and reflect on what it's been like. Of course, I wish I knew then what I know now. I'd probably do it quite a bit differently, but that's the old "hindsight is 20/20" talking. I didn't have any experience when I came here and it'll never be (I hope) as difficult as this first season.
The people I met made the whole thing worthwhile. I met people from Calgary, Alberta, to New Mexico. The people I hung out with were the partiers so there was a whole lot of eating and drinking going on. Which translates to weight gain, but that's enough on that subject.
If it weren't for Sandra, from Michigan, I think the story might have been quite different. She knows a ton of people at the Voyager and my space was across the street from hers. She's a much more outgoing person than I am and I was fortunate that she liked me and I liked her and so she introduced me to all the people she knew or just met. If I choose to come back here next year, it will be a lot easier because of the people I met this season.
But I haven't decided whether to come back here next year. I'm thinking that six months in one place is too long. Even though I learned a new hobby, glass fusion, I found myself bored a lot of the time. I missed the projects I came up with in my house. Not that I miss my house, because I don't. I love the house I'm in, my 40' Alfa, and that's all I need right now.
I heard more than once that if I got bored, it was my fault, because there wasn't any reason to be bored at the Voyager. I beg to differ. I know that I'm searching for something and I haven't found it yet. I also know that if I keep doing what I've always done, nothing will change. Glass fusion, pickle ball, bingo, to name a few, are not how I want to spend the rest of my life. Wait…I forgot about Mah Jongg. That I enjoyed, it really used my brain power. The "real" Mah Jongg is so different from what I've been playing on the computer for years. There's no comparison.
Maybe I'm done with Tucson. I'm know I'm done with the brown. Give me some green…please!!! My Northwest side is coming out.
I think the Voyager is too big for me. Kind of like the Del Webb communities I checked out were too big. I find them overwhelming. This is good information for me. The only way to figure out what I like and don't like is to keep trying new things.
I know that I would never recommend this park to anyone. Someone in charge here has too many control issues and I don't like being controlled. I don't like having to wear an identification badge. I did that when I worked but I'm not working anymore.
My latest negative encounter here was when they parked a Class A motorhome next to me. Four days ago. The park is almost empty, I'm loving the extra breathing room and they park a motorhome right next to me. A smoker, no less, so when I go outside the first thing I smell is cigarette smoke. AARGH. With much difficulty, because they said I couldn't leave that space until the 24th because I'd paid until then, I was able to move to a different space and now I don't have anyone next to me, behind me, or across the street from me. Aaaah, it feels so good.
Living in a 33.5' x 50' RV space, surrounded by RVs, just about did me in. I felt hemmed in many times, hence the reaction to the motorhome debacle I just went through. I've learned that I probably need more space, more privacy, and fewer barking dogs. I was in the pet section so I shouldn't complain too much. After all, pets do live in the pet section, most of those pets are dogs and dogs bark.
Pardon the rambling. I realize I've missed writing in my blog so I think I'll be writing more often. Now that the partying has ended I have a lot more time on my hands!!! | c4 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 2 |

The post Happy Birthday Eminem: Watch DJ Steve Porter's "A Shady Birthday" [VIDEO] appeared first on Hip-Hop Wired.
(AllHipHop News) Paper is tapping current Hip Hop representatives to pay homage to deceased icons of the culture. After Kendrick Lamar honored Eazy-E, the publication recruited Marshall "Eminem" Mathers to pen a personal essay about Tupac Shakur.
Previously, Eminem wrote a letter to Pac's mother Afeni Shakur. He also drew a picture of the late West Coast legend. Both items are now at the Tupac Amaru Shakur Center for the Arts in Stone Mountain, Georgia.
Marvel does it again and this time the entertainment giant makes a variant cover of Eminem's Relapse album.
The Scarlet Witch of The Avengers replaces Eminem for this cover to the glee of Marvel's Editor In Chief, Axel Alonso.

Is Eminem Going on Tour With Dr. Dre and Ice Cube as an Honorary N.W.A Member?! Get the Scoop!
Is Eminem going to hit the stage as part of N.W.A?!
Eminem has a very big week ahead musically and he's not even releasing a solo album. The soundtrack to Southpaw, the upcoming drama starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Rachel McAdams and 50 Cent is being released via Shady Records and features two leadoff singles from the "Phenomenal" rapper.
While speaking to The New York Times, Eminem explained when he knew to keep one finger on the game's pulse and when not to.
I try to stay up on everything that's out. I love [Lil] Wayne, Drake, Big Sean, Schoolboy Q. I love Kendrick [Lamar]. I just try to pay attention to what's out. Wayne puts out a new song, and my ears perk up. There are certain artists that make me do that just because of the caliber that they rhyme at — it's like candy to me. Kendrick, the way he puts albums together — front to back, they're like pieces of art. But hip-hop needs Drake, too. Hip-hop needs Big Sean. I feel like hip-hop is in a good place right now. There's this balance of things going on, and it feels like some of the best rappers are the most successful. Sometimes that's not the case.
Kanye, as well — I forgot to mention Kanye. I'll always be lyrically competitive.
Other people tell me about it and pull it up for me. I wait for other people to show it to me. I don't particularly go on the Internet, because the experiences that I've had are not good. It's not productive for me.
Once I'm on the computer, it's over, because I'm tempted to look at everything. I went on the computer recently and got on one site, read five comments and was like, "Man." I have friends that do it — rapper friends. I'm like, "I don't know how you do that." Because you end up wanting to fight someone, kill them, or kill yourself — usually all three at once.
I know there are a lot of Twitter beefs. People used to just make songs. But it is what it is. The world's forever changing, and you've just gotta adapt and evolve.

The post Eminem Talks Best Rappers Out & Why He Doesn't Go On The Internet appeared first on Hip-Hop Wired.
Eminem is "tempted to look at everything" if he goes on the Internet, so tries to avoid it.
D.U.B.B. also calls his music "worldly" and believes people from wherever can relate to it.
"Straight Outta Compton's" director details the biopic's soundtrack, says it's "deep."
Redman also explains why he and Eminem respect each other.
The Detroit rapper explains what would bring him back to his acting career.
A TV project inspired by the 2002 film "Narc" is in talks to bring on rapper Eminem as an executive producer and music supervisor, making the musician the latest to take on a major behind-the-scenes role on a TV show. Deadline first revealed that Eminem could contribute original songs to the Detroit-set crime thriller "Narc," which would be directed and executive produced by the movie's director, Jay Callahan, who has reportedly written a pilot script.
Eminem is THE global rap superstar. This concert was filmed at Madison Square Garden in New York in 2005 at the culmination of his farewell tour prior to his retirement. It's a spectacular show with multi-level staging, amazing lighting and guest appearances from D12, Obie Trice and Stat Quo. Originally filmed for US TV station Showtime the show is now available in concert for the first time and gives us Eminem at his charismatic best.
The first official trailer for Denzel Washington's "The Equalizer" arrived on Thursday courtesy of Eminem's social media accounts. The rapper collaborated with Sia for a song heard in the teaser, which finds Washington in "Man on Fire" mode. He will kill everyone who gets in his way in this movie, "brick by brick, body by body." "The Equalizer" is out in theaters on Sept. 26. | c4 | 3 | 1 | 4 | 2 |
BkiUfzDxK7Tt52mM_pab | Cannarf Review: All About Steve
Movie: All About Steve
Where We Saw It: Rave Cinemas in Port St. Lucie, Florida. We were vacationing there last week to celebrate out 10th anniversary.
Food/Beverages Consumed: We went to the movie theater immediately after eating dinner at Chipotle, so we were the opposite of hungry. But I figured at some point I'd have the urge to eat something sweet and I had a few bucks in my pocket, so we spent $4 on a box of raisinettes. Later that night we saw the same box at Wal-Mart for 97 cents. Good times.
Movie Synopsis in Twitteresque 140 characters or less: An annoying Sandra Bullock has latched onto the charming Bradley Cooper. Can he ditch her without crushing her spirit? And will you care?
The Good Stuff: I've never been a big Sandra Bullock fan, but she did a pretty good job walking the tightrope of being over the top eccentric and likable at the same time. The chemistry between the 3 main dudes in the poster was pretty good as well, leading to some of the movies' best moments.
The Bad Stuff: I'm not usually one to pick apart movies, but I couldn't help but feel that some of the characters and their relationships were way too underdeveloped. For instance, when Thomas Haden Church's character decided to mess with Bradley Cooper and reach out to Bullock, I had no idea why he was doing it. Was he a bad guy? Was he just a joker? It didn't make sense in the story arc to the point where I noticed it. Also, the friendships that Bullock developed with the guy and girl from the "Pro-Leg" camp (I won't ruin that for you) seemed way too contrived. I had a hard time caring for them or their whole sub-plot. It felt like there was about 20 minutes of footage that would have explained these characters better that was left on the editing room floor, and as a result the movie seemed emotionally disjointed. Or maybe there was something in my burrito from Chipotle.
The Ending: The ending was pretty strong and included some truly funny moments and a small twist. Nothing to write or call home about (though a text might be justifiable).
Should You spend $25 to go see it in the theaters: I can think of worse things to do with your money. Not exactly a ringing endorsement, I know, but yeah.
No seriously, Should I Go See it, Rent it, or Skip it? It's a safe play for the theaters if there's nothing else you want to see, but otherwise I think it's a solid rental.
Expectations Going In: I was expecting a light, easy-to-watch movie with a few funny scenes here and there.
Cannarf Rating: Well, I got what I expected with this one. It was funny at times, scattered at others, and in the end turned out to be a fun way to spend an hour and a half of my life. The Rating: 0 cannarfs. (what's a cannarf?)
Have any of you seen All About Steve? If so, what's your cannarf rating?
That's a Great Question

Recdi8 studied the building's history and the apartment itself in Barcelona's Example district so as to be able to recover the original elements that have been disappearing during the last decades. The new finishings, the furniture and the decoration have been chosen under the inspiration of nature, Rococo and Romanticism.

Contrasting and softening the masculinity and tactility of contours, the choice of earth-toned leather also gives harmony to the interior. The distinctive form of the design brings dynamicity and directionality, hence creates a unique character for the sales office.

A new impressive showroom recently opened in the heart of Barrio de Las Letras, in Madrid, Spain: MOONGATA Showroom. Coming from "mångata", a word that is very present in the Swedish literature and poetry, meaning the path of light that the moon reflects in the water, MOONGATA Showroom was founded by José Usero and Alfredo Díaz.

BkiUe3XxK6wB9dbuVX5Q | Joe's close shave for good cause
Joe Goodbody, construction director for Charles Church North-East has raised £76 for children's charity Dreams Come True after being sponsored by work colleagues to shave off his moustache!
Joe Goodbody, construction director for Charles Church North-East has raised £76 for children's charity Dreams Come True after being sponsored by work colleagues to shave off his moustache!
Joe said: "Dreams Come True is such a good charity. Being a parent of three sons myself, I know there is no better sight than that of complete joy on a young face. Charles Church is just starting its second year of fundraising for this charity so I thought I'd get the ball rolling!"
Colleagues at Joe's offices looked on as his moustache was slowly removed over one lunch hour. "The response at work was good, and some colleagues even say I look a little younger… maybe they are just being nice!" he added.
Housebuilder Charles Church has confirmed that it is to continue its support of national children's charity Dreams Come True for another year.
Having pledged to raise £100,000 for the charity over the last year through a variety of events and initiatives, Charles Church is hoping to exceed this target over the next 12 months.
Dreams Come True charity is dedicated to offering severely or terminally-ill children the thrill of translating their most cherished dreams into a once-in-a-lifetime experience and this year celebrates its 15th anniversary. Dreams are shaped by a child's imagination, and can vary from meeting their sporting hero or pop star to driving a racing car and swimming with dolphins.

BkiUds3xaL3SujGfKMPo | A photography exhibition featuring images of powerful, inspiring women from the world of sport will mark the end of a week of activities as part of the This Girl Can campaign at Nottingham Trent University.
The exhibition, titled Sport is Beautiful, will display photographs of women empowered by sport in a bid to inspire more women to put on their running shoes, head to the gym or join a fitness class.
Curated by former Great Britain canoeist, Danielle Sellwood from the Women's Sport Trust, the exhibition launched on Tuesday 15 November at the university before going on tour in 2017.
The exhibition highlights the strength, skill, courage and commitment of female athletes and aims to challenge the lack of visibility in women's sports.
Danielle said: "Photographs of sportswomen in the media are often sexualised. Our exhibition shows a diverse mix of women involved in a variety of sports; they are authentic and inspiring and we hope they will help break down gender-limiting stereotypes.
As part of a week-long programme of sport at the university, students and staff enjoyed a variety of events including fitness classes, tournaments and play for fun sessions.
Trent Girls Can Week, which was celebrated from 7 – 13 November, is part of a collaboration between NTU Sport and NTSU, the university's students' union, with the aim of creating inclusive and accessible sporting experience for students.
Sarah Hadlow, Participation Sport Manager at Nottingham Trent University, worked with Matt Nicholson of NTSU and Lucy Adams from the University's Schools, Colleges and Community Outreach team.
Sarah said: "The Sport is Beautiful exhibition is a great way to continue our celebration of women in sports, with striking images to inspire our girls to continue playing and keep active.
The exhibition will be held in the Newton building on the University's City Campus and is free and open to the public until 18 November. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUdPLxaKgS2KSYm56r | Another busy March has come to a close. We were very excited to have two major New England shows on the calendar, the Dark Arts and Crafts Faire in Portsmouth, NH and the Magickal Marketplace in Nashua, NH. While it takes weeks to create and get product ready and then the days go by in a flash, we always want to thank old friends and new for taking the time out to stop by and reconnect. The community connections we make over the years really fuels us to keep moving forward and to spark our creativity. Two full days of readings at the Magickal Marketplace were more than we could ask for and we are so grateful to everyone who spent time with us.
While we are sometimes comfortable in our homes ordering products on line or connecting with us each other through social media, there is nothing like an event where we meet face to face and get caught up on conversation. Be sure to subscribe to our newsletter to see what show is next on our calendar. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 1 |
BkiUdX84eIXguwdVFDqj | variation, all of which adds extra complexity. This is particularly true of prepress, where more product variation means more files to handle, and more plates to make – often on a wider range of substrates – which in turn makes it more difficult to achieve consistency.
feature that helped extend its usefulness.
different systems together and increasingly now also means automating some of the artwork so that many different variants can be generated from a master copy. This eliminates mistakes in different language variants and ensures consistency between the branding on the products and the different packaging elements around them. Bates says: "Brand-owners always want to take costs out of the process, but the big saving is time and reducing errors."
There's also a clear trend away from special colours to a fixed colour palette. Esko has a product called Equinox that converts special colours to a 6-colour set. It's not a new idea – Bates points out that Pantone tried something similar with Hexachrome back in the mid-90s, adding: "Now the market seems ready for it."
He continues: "If customers can produce 90% of the work with the six colours then the wash-up time on the presses disappears. Also, the cost of ink mixing goes down." Equinox isn't limited to a particular 6-colour set but will find the most suitable colours for the jobs in hand. Bates notes: "Some will want to go to four colours, but the colour space will be too limited."
Andy Cook, managing director of FFEI, agrees that the use of spot colours is changing, saying: "Over the last few years we have noticed a trend where brands are much more accepting of process colours to represent their spots. Maybe customers are less concerned about colour accuracy on brands, perhaps because they are viewing them with more mobile devices."
FFEI has a number of useful tools aimed at the packaging sector such as RealVue, which simulates 3D packaging to help with design. FFEI has also developed a collection of packaging workflow tools, the RealPro Toolkit, which was demonstrated at last year's Drupa show as a bundle with RealVue, but following feedback from customers was earlier this year launched as a separate product. This is made up of 12 tools, all also available separately, which cover functions such as preflighting, colour management and nesting.
Cook acknowledges that Esko dominates the workflow for the packaging sector and says that rather than compete against Esko the RealPro Toolkit is designed to complement Esko's offering. According to Cook, the Esko software is highly modular, but by the time customers have licensed the full set of modules across all their workstations it becomes quite expensive, so the RealPro Toolkit offers a more costeffective alternative that might be suitable for some departments. He explains: "We needed to find a niche in the market to add value to customers who might already have some of the Esko tools. It's a fairly low cost investment that you can spread across the workstations so customers can mix the two together."
FFEI also sells RealPro, a commercial workflow which is essentially the same as Fujifilm's XMF (FFEI having originally developed it for Fujifilm). This is based on the Adobe PDF print engine and includes Enfocus preflighting for common errors such as missing fonts and colours. FFEI's colour management is based on device link profiles and the company has a cloud-based system, Colour cloud, which lets users test colour profiles against a target press. It allows customers to experiment with different profiles, only paying for those that they download.
being less willing to risk any compromise in quality.
He says there is an issue with predicting how colours will overprint and that it's harder to fingerprint a press because there are so many spot colours used. To combat this, GMG has recently launched its OpenColor proofing solution for the packaging market. This allows for predictable spot colour simulation by analysing ink behaviour in relation to the substrate's colorimetric properties. As such it delivers accurate spot colour overprint simulation and demonstrates the interplay between the spot colours and process inks.
products then it's not really suitable." He says extended colour gamuts can cause problems for press operators who will naturally want to set a grey balance using the basic cyan, magenta and yellow, but extended colour gamuts use much more complex colour mixes, making it harder to balance the colours on press.
The main alternative workflow system to Esko's Automation Engine is Kodak's Prinergy workflow, which is currently being updated to v6. It's based around the Adobe PDF Print Engine and uses rules to automate processes. There's a version specifically for the packaging sector, Prinergy PowerPack, which has a number of packaging-specific features such as Packaging Layout Automation, which automates the layout and nesting of jobs to maximise the use of the printed sheet.
Kodak also sells Flexcel platesetters that use SquareSpot technology to create flat top dots on the plate.
The SquareSpot technology gives the edge of the printed dots a very steep slope that helps to separate the ink from the water on the plate. Dave McGuinness, marketing manager for Kodak, says: "We can print at a very fine resolution because we have no mix of fount solution to affect the ink, and so the stochastic screening works very well. We can go down to 20 microns on a specific dot. When you can control a very fine dot and it's very clean, then everything leaps off the page."
or even to the standard CMYK process colours, greatly reducing the costs of a job. McGuiness explains: "We can give you the recipes to give you the colours that you need, and when you apply a fine stochastic screening it comes out very well." The Spotless system is unique to Kodak, as it relies on the high resolution of the Flexcel NX platesetters and the use of stochastic screening to hold the colour gamut.
Xeikon also sells a flexo system called Thermoflexx, which takes a very different approach to Kodak. This uses digital plates that have their own laser ablatable media (LAM) layer, usually made of carbon, which replaces film and is removed by a laser in the platestter. It's a simpler system as it removes the film step and the need to attach it to the plate.
The Thermoflexx system employs a single light source where most others use a laser diode. Doug Mawdsley, Xeikon's product manager for Thermoflexx, explains: "The advantage is more productivity and it's much easier for the user to focus on the plate, so we get more consistency and higher reliability." This also leads to higher resolution making it easier to reproduce fine details. The Thermoflexx platesetters are compatible with most common digital flexo plates, including Nyloflex from Flint and Lux from MacDermid.
The Xeikon platesetters will work with any workflow that can send a 1-bit TIFF file. Xeikon gives customers a choice between Kodak Prinergy and a Harlequin system from Xitron.
So far we haven't mentioned digital printing, but most of the people we spoke to believe that we will see much more use of digital printing in the packaging sector and that, as in the commercial print sector, this will affect the demands put on the prepress suppliers. One obvious issue is that digital presses are mostly used with four or six colours, which will accelerate the trend away from spot colours. But it's also likely to see many repro houses start to move more fully into print production than is currently the case in this sector. | c4 | 5 | 4 | 5 | 4 |

BkiUd3k4eIOjSEHJUMYI | Do you ever miss home cooked food or just freshly home cooked meals per your preference? I know I do, and it seems there are finally some local options.
Jai Foods is a catering company that provide a personalized menu of family style Indian and American comfort food dishes.
Sandeep is the founder and head cook of Jai foods. She started it a year ago naming the company after her 20 month old son because she wanted to provide a way for everyone to taste the India cooking that goes on in her home and know that Indian flavors go way beyond Chicken Tikka Masala. She is culinary trained in different cuisines, but will always prefer her mom's cooking and recipes.
When the founder reached out to have us review one of her dishes, we said yes. Mainly because her story behind the catering company was relatable and we know how important word of mouth is when you are new to the business.
Sandeep delivered a big family sized portion of her homemade chili with rice and a small piece of sugar cane to clear the palette. Unlike traditional chili that is usually thicker, Sandeep's version is more soup like. She grew up eating it over rice or plain penne pasta.
I had it without rice the first night with a dollop of sour cream and some shredded cheese. Then the next night I tried it on top of rice and it was so filling.
The flavors were spicy and rich. I expected beans in the chili, but not huge kidney beans or chickpeas. Low-key sad this is the first time I've had chili with chickpeas, they made it 10 times better. But, I'm biased and love chickpeas like a fat kid loves cake.
I wished it was slightly more spicy. That said, I didn't tell Sandeep my spice level preference so she probably played it safe.
The best part of eating this, was knowing it was all local and organic. I mean she soaked the beans over night to get them to the perfect size and texture.

BkiUd-I5qsNCPep761F5 | Перката () је град у Мађарској. Елесалаш се налази у оквиру жупаније Фејер.
Географске одлике насеља
Перката, чије је име келтског порекла, била је насељена у округу Фејер, на лесној висоравни прошараној долинама на источној ивици Мезофелда. До насеља се може доћи друмским путем: из Будимпеште аутопутем М6, или из Секешфехервара са севера, из Дунаујвароша са југа аутопутем 62. Главни пут заобилази насеље до чијег се центра стиже само путем 62 118. До села се може доћи од Адоња и М6 путем 6208.
Историја
На овом подручју постоји око шездесет археолошких налазишта, углавном дуж водотока који припадају водосистему Циколаји. Келтски реликти су из III–II века п. н. е. познате под именом латенска култура и гробља из бронзаног доба ископавани су од 18. века, али су многа налазишта позната и из римског и миграционог доба.
Једно је од насељених места келтског насеља из гвозденог доба. Током периода између I–IV. века, Римљани су запосели простор, али и овде можемо пратити трагове сеобених кретања. Подручје око Перкате, заједно са читавим лесним гребеном у Мезефелду, било је део кнежевског смештајног подручја у 10. веку.
Током XIII–XVI века насеље је било окупирано кунима. Насеље из ере Арпад, које је уништено током инвазије Татара, замењено је Кунима који су припадали организацији капетаније хантосеки кун. Куни су своју цркву је обновили 1417. године. Његово старо име се први пут помиње у сведоци Пипа Озораија, архиепископа темешког 1417. године. За време турског потчињавања село је опустело, а после протеривања Турака овде су стигли Јужни Словени (углавном досељеници из Раци). Њиховим залагањем развио се у значајно село, чему су у великој мери допринели његов географски положај и климатске карактеристике.
У прошлости насеља у првој четвртини XVIII. века највећу улогу одиграла је породица Ђер. Од Марије Терезије, Ференц Радвањи Ђери (IV) је 25. јуна 1775. добио Перкату, где је посадио винову лозу, основао школу и дао изградити римокатоличку цркву о свом трошку. Њихов дворац је саграђен 1820. године. Један од чланова породице, Терезија Ђер (1843–1936), одличан управник имања и добротвор села, живела је овде до краја живота. Њеном смрћу завршило се стопедесет година везаних за делатност породице Ђер.
Број становништва у XIX. веку, од почетка 20. века па до данас креће се између 3.500 и 6.000 људи, број становника села сада је око 4.000 људи, а број станова је 1.573, површина је 7.452 хектара, од чега унутрашњи део је површине од 436 хектара. Насеље је пољопривредно.
Перката има основну школа Маћаш Хуњади и Центар за опште образовање, у чијем оквиру су библиотека Јожеф Атила и обданиште.
Деоница аутопута 62 која заобилази Перкату предата је 28. јуна 2012. године.
Популација
Током пописа 2011. године, 84,2% становника се изјаснило као Мађари, 2,7% као Роми, 0,3% као Немци и 0,3% као Румуни (15,5% се није изјаснило, због двојног идентитета, укупан број већи може бити на 100 %).
Верска дистрибуција је била следећа: римокатолици 40,5%, реформисани 3,1%, лутерани 0,5%, гркокатолици 0,5%, неденоминациони 28,5% (26,3% се није изјаснило).

BkiUbTE5qsMAIq_v3nFp | Was chatting to the dealer this week contemplating trading in my A3 sometime in March 'when the new model will hopefully be out'. He replied the 'new model' will merely be a facelift.
Anyone have any details on this? I've read online (Auto Express) that there will be a new generation (ie not a facelift) A3 announced later this year for release in 2019.
I suspect it was BS from the dealer as he's likely got existing stock he wants rid of before the new tax and emissions regs potentially affect sales in September. The current model, facelift aside, is now six years old so is getting near the end of the production line I would have thought.
Which leads me nicely to the next question. Should I take advantage of the hypothetical stock car, assuming it's loaded to the hilt with options and comes with a hefty discount or wait till next year and see what happens with the 'new' A3?
I think the dealers believe we are all naïve. I was looking at a A4 TFSI quattro last year but was told that that engine setup was no longer available to buy, they then tried to talk me into a V6 diesel. The same dealership has an 18 plate TFSI quattro for sale. Feel like phoning them to make some mischief.
I was in the similar position and understand what you thinking when i brought my S3 in April should i wait see what the next a3 brings. But at the end of the day i really liked the current FL A3 especially in Saloon version so i said to myself just buy it and enjoy it and never look back since.
I will be trading in my s3 when the new S3 Black Edition arrives whenever that is i'm guessing about 3 years or more because they don''t release the Black Edition's until well after the new model's out.
I have a few friend's who works at Audi and he told me it will be a brand new model A3 not FL, but no information on it yet.
Mythos and Pook like this.
Its likely to remain on the MQB platform but its safe to say there will be a range of new engines with more emphasis on hybrid technology.
Car builders focus on brand identity so it will have a scaled down look of the new A9 which I believe is the latest car in the Audi family due for unveiling later this year at the big european motor shows. I hope to god they resist the urge to use the same bling-tastic rear light array on the latest A8.
It will have Audi nonsensical engine badge too.
maybe he was joking as Audi hardly push the limits with design!
This much is true. I think the 8V had replaced the 8P for six months before I even noticed! Although I wasn't an Audi owner at the time so didn't follow things as closely back then.
I'd give my left nut for those new lights on the A6/A8 though. And dynamic sweep indicators. I love all that kind of jazz even though I wouldn't be able to see it on my own car. Call me vain but I think it adds to the four rings kudos. And it looks cool.

Yeah I saw a Ford people carrier with them last week. Looked cheap and tacky compared to Audi's implementation of course. Audi should have put a patent on them. Still look cool and remind me of Knight Rider back in the day. Maybe it's my inner child that likes them so much lol.
Question are you loaded.... ?
Although the wife also says wait for the new model as there's not much point changing my car for an identical one in a different colour. Which is a fair point.

pburv, Jcbmally and q5man like this.
Same as this^. Was thinking about waiting for the all new A3 but I love the current 8V so I thought why not. Only slight difference with me is I'm going from a PFL A3 to a FL S3 so I am getting a reasonable change out of it.
q5man, TYb and Matty_ like this.
I'm in the same boat! Way I saw it was that I was due a change, and the new model s3 is a good 2-2.5 years away and the fact I was going from pfl A3 to fl s3 it's still a massive step up, especially considering I've got a lot more on the cars compared. By the time the new s3 is out and the stealers start doing discounts, it should marry up with the time I'll be due to upgrade again!
firecracker69, q5man and Pook like this.
Yep, I've seen them on a lorry, a Range Rover, Peugeot have them on the front so does the Citroen DS3. I'm sure there's more.
Dynamic indicators are pointless except that children might view them as cool!
q5man, Bells, Tom.H and 1 other person like this.
So stands to reason a all new A3 will be out as well.
Definitely a brand new car next year - we have had the facelift now already.
The new Merc A Class has just been released, with the Golf and A3 to follow early next year as noted.
The dealer mentioned this and I suspect that's why he wants me to change now, to help shift stock they can otherwise only sell post September if they're pre-registered the cars to themselves. I'll wait for the new one.
Just read MK8 VW Golf production starts in June 2019, guessing the A3 won't be too far behind.
The new GTI will be circa 250bhp standard and around 270 with the performance pack utilising hybrid tech for the extra power.
S3, N Blue, stronic, SS seats, B&O, advanced tech pack, rear sensors and privacy glass.
ASBOST, q5man and KenL like this.
Only problem with waiting is that you won't get a good deal / discount on the new car. Just like every new car when it comes out, demand is high, so discounts and deals low.
q5man, KenL and jassyo06 like this.
Early adopters always pay the price with Dealers reluctant to give big discounts on new launch cars.
It is quite simple at the moment with post April 17 cars - below 40 grand list price or above 40 grand.
Is our government planning on moving the goal posts again regarding VED?
4K and Snake Pliskin like this.
Yea control stalks etc not so good on the FL. not had pan roof before so I won't notice the difference there. shame all of the S3 designators now only 'S' too. The 'fancy' touchscreen tech also a pet hate of mine which is another reason I went for one now; I really don't like the new dash's on the likes of the A7 and A6, and I also don't like the stuck on iPhone on A4 and A5. As Goldilocks would say, the A3 is just right.

Some compelling arguments to bag an FL Black Edition or even S3 here. My PCP isn't up till September 2019 so I may be in negative equity but I'll have a chat as I'm in for the MOT soon anyway. If the price is right I might be tempted. If the new Golf isn't in production until next June then the new A3 might not be available next September when I need to change - especially if there's a waiting list. Decisions decisions.
Jassy - please post a link to new A1.
Didn't think anything official was out there yet.
A3 is the biggest car I have owned and might go smaller again.
New A1 might be on my list as it the Up GTI!
Those pics look like standard magazine Photoshops and not the real deal.
Like it. Although the sline looks a bit ott.
Wonder when it will be available. I'll probably look to change my car around next May.

BkiUdjc25V5iqz-y4J2e | Milwaukee-born emcee, poet and creative king Emmitt James fuses masterful storytelling with funky hip-hop instrumentals to create dynamic performances that leave audiences wanting more. He's supported by the rotating lineup of The Feel Goods, whose composition ranges from drums and electric bass to saxophone and violin. Influenced by lyricists and creative geniuses from Kanye West to Marvyn Gaye to Toro y Moi, James is resistant to the idea of being labelled a rapper. Instead, he sees himself as a creative chameleon, mixing a conversational lyrical flow with infectious beats and an ear for studio production. James' vibrant live shows reach into the hearts of audiences with relatable, mindful and present music.
James has performed twice at the international poetry slam Brave New Voices and brought crowds to life at Sofar Sounds in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Additionally, he has performed at numerous private art shows and video screenings and toured across the U.S. to promote his 2015 EP Hunger Pains.

A 90-YEAR-OLD REMEMBERS MEETING THE LOVE OF HER LIFE.
A COUPLE SHARES THE MOMENT THEY KNEW THEY WERE EXPECTING.
This was a priceless gift that will last a lifetime. They found a way to bottle up all those special moments you always wanted to hold onto. Get ready...every emotion you could ever feel will surface.
I've listened to all 3 chapters of our story so many times! It is such a special way to capture our feelings, experiences, and thoughts while they were happening. I love hearing my loved ones' perspectives - such a rare treat! This far exceeded my expectations! | c4 | 4 | 1 | 4 | 1 |
BkiUfu85qhLBuVPow13i | Q: .htaccess rewrites my urls when I don't want it to! I'm trying to get .htaccess to rewrite urls for my site. For example:
/Lessons/PhrasalVerbs/PVList/bringup
becomes
/index.php?page=Lessons/PhrasalVerbs/PVList/bringup
This seems to be a relatively common desire, so after looking around the internet, I came up with (read copied bemusedly) this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA]
Now as is, things work, but it's the second, not the first url, that appears in the bar. Now if I change the last line from
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA]
to
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA]
Now the address bar looks fine, but the site goes from looking correct to losing most of its formatting and images... (unfortuntely I can't post images, or links to images...)
Also, if I click on, for example, the link to the "bring up" page again, the url goes from
/Lessons/PhrasalVerbs/PVList/bringup
to
/Lessons/PhrasalVerbs/PVList/Lessons/PhrasalVerbs/PVList/bringup
So it's sort of repeating itself.
As is probably clear, I'm completely useless at mod_rewrite and am very confused. As this seems to be a fairly common use of .htaccess, I'm hoping someone can point out my stupid mistake!
A: This is a pretty common mistake when doing URL rewriting and it has nothing to do with mod_rewrite.
The problem is that you're using relative URLs in your documents. And relative URLs are resolved by the client using a base URL that is the document's URL is not specified otherwise.
So if the document's URL path is /foo/bar and there is a link in it with the relative URL baz/quux, the client resolves it to /foo/baz/quux as baz/quux is resolved relatively to /foo/bar and not to /.
You can fix this by using absolute paths instead, i.e. /baz/quux instead of baz/quux. Or by explicitly changing the base URI using the BASE element. But I wouldn't do that as it affects all relative URLs and not just relative URL paths.

BkiUbAM5ixsDL7k8xXBO | One of by far the most popular electrical wiring thoughts is on how to wire a change. Though utilizing switches at your home is quite easy, wiring one may not be that quick for everybody. An ON-OFF switch is really quite simple to wire. You can find various kinds of switches, but for this instance, let us say you might be setting up a single-pole toggle switch, an exceedingly typical switch (along with the simplest).
You'll find three shades of wires within a usual single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and eco-friendly. Splice the black wire in two and join them around the terminal screws - 1 on best as well as other over the base screw in the swap. The white wire serves to be a resource of uninterrupted energy and is typically connected to the light-weight coloured terminal screw (e.g., silver). Connect the environmentally friendly wire to your ground screw within your swap.
These actions would generally be ample to generate a normal change do the job and not using a issue. On the other hand, in case you are usually not confident that you just can complete the job properly and safely you better enable the pros do it alternatively. Following all, you will find a purpose why this endeavor is one of the most frequent electrical wiring queries requested by many people.
For some reason, how to wire a ceiling fan is usually among probably the most prevalent electrical wiring concerns. To simplify this process, you can use just one change for just a single ceiling fan. To wire the fan, it really is just a matter of connecting the black wire from the ceiling fan into the black wire of your change. If there is a lightweight, the blue wire ought to be linked into the black wire in the switch too.
You can find explanations why these are typically quite possibly the most frequently questioned electrical wiring inquiries. One, many consider it truly is easy to do, and two, they are the widespread electrical duties at home. But then you certainly must not set your safety at risk inside your target to save money. The stakes could even be significantly greater if you endeavor to lower your expenses and do an electrical wiring career devoid of sufficient knowledge or working experience. | c4 | 2 | 2 | 4 | 2 |

Jaeger, Veronika K. and Tschudi, Nadine and Rüegg, Rolanda and Hatz, Christoph and Bühler, Silja. (2015) The elderly, the young and the pregnant traveler - a retrospective data analysis from a large Swiss Travel Center with a special focus on malaria prophylaxis and yellow fever vaccination. Travel medicine and infectious disease, 13 (6). pp. 475-484.
Vulnerable individuals such as elderly, children/adolescents and pregnant/breastfeeding women increasingly travel overseas. We describe the travel and vaccination patterns of these groups at the largest Travel Clinic in Switzerland especially focusing on travel to yellow fever and malaria-endemic countries, and yellow fever vaccination (YFV) and malaria medications.; An analysis of pre-travel visits between 2010 and 2012 at the Travel Clinic of the University of Zurich, was performed assessing differences between the elderly, young and middle-aged travelers as well as between pregnant/breastfeeding and other female travelers.; Overall, the vulnerable groups did not differ from other travelers regarding their travel patterns. YFV was the most often administered vaccine to elderly travelers; half of them received it for the first time. More than 30% of children/adolescents received YFV, but no child below six months was vaccinated. 80% of young travelers and a similar percentage of pregnant women went to malaria-endemic regions. Twenty-five pregnant/breastfeeding women traveled to YF endemic areas.; Travel patterns of vulnerable travelers are comparable to those of other travelers. In view of the limited data on malaria medications and precautions against YFV during pregnancy and at the extreme ages of life, giving travel advice to these groups is challenging.

BkiUdjQ4eIXhzGirDQcE | Being fired is reality of today's corporate world and it can happen to even best of us. Usually, when you share it with other that you are fired you hesitate for a while and may be you are not comfortable to face the series of questions. The Reasons for being fired are many such as cost cutting, expansion or amalgamation of units, change in the working methods or some personal one such as wrong doings of person like working against the policies of company, professional misconduct, selling out the important information of company etc.
Whatever the reasons may be the question can be asked at interview of your next job and following are some tips to face the question.
Usually people spent most of the time in blaming others instead of working on new jobs and opportunities. Rather than thinking over what had happened in last job, think about in which ways it will impacts on your life and career. Moreover during interview, you are just blaming your previous employer or colleagues or working environment and solely blame them for your termination than your prospective employer is not going to believe you.
Accept the facts, Move on and make your resume shine again.
While replying, be honest and authentic with your answers. Make your answers short and to the point. Avoid lying about the reasons of leaving past job because the companies do check the employee's back ground before hiring them. If you are laid off from job than there is nothing to worry but in a case it is genuine firing due to any misconduct try to reply with strategic though honest answers.
Further honesty is important characteristic of good employee and it will help you in creating favorable situations for getting job.
Don't badmouth about your past employers! In a case, you feel that firing you was improper on part of your former employer and it's obvious that you are feeling angry but that anger should not convert in to criticizing your previous boss or management.
Moreover your prospective employer may think that you can also speak badly about them while getting another work.
It's obvious thing that this incident of firing will leave wounds on your professional life and confidence. Take some time to prepare yourself for answering this question. You can prepare answers and tell anyone to take your mock interviews so that you can also work on your gestures, postures and body language. Practicing again and again will help you to gain your confidence.
Whenever you are quoting reasons for losing job also state that you have learned lessons from your past mistakes. For an example if you loss a pretty sales order due to lack in some paper work while sending quotations , you can say that due to this incident I have learned the importance of documentation and proper communications.
Be positive and turn this threat in to opportunity for you. People appreciate those who accept their mistakes and learned from them.
If you want to avoid the negative impacts of your termination, seek more professionalism. Don't give any chance to your prospective employer that you are not good enough for the work offered. Work on developing your professional skills and etiquettes. Further follow interview protocols for an example proper dressing, silencing your devices, answering with politeness, reaching on time or little early.
Being a perfect professional will boost up your confidence too.
After doing a lot of brainstorming, here we have described 2 different answers as per the situations to face this question confidently. Hope it will help you to answer this question positively to impress your future employer without making them doubt on your professional career.
Explain the firing as a result of downsizing mergers, company closure or some other act beyond your control. Sometimes firing happens several times in a row to good people who figuratively happen to be standing on the wrong street corner when the wrong bus comes along and runs them over. So many people have been on that bus these days that being terminated is no longer a big deal. Being let off was not your fault, so you have no reason to feel guilty. Get on with the interview with a sincere smile on your face.
Say you learned an enormous lesson during the experience. You messed up, but you know better now and you will not make the same mistakes again. Explain briefly how you benefited from this learning experience. Then quickly turn the interview back to the better you and go on to explain how you are the hand-down best candidate for the job.
The above are the some tips which will help you to deal with the question 'why you were fired'. However, everyone has their own way to responding with situation but the above steps will surely help you to be out of this situation successfully. All the best! | c4 | 3 | 2 | 5 | 2 |

BkiUdeE4eIZjhIQols_o | Physical Therapy Boosts Efficacy of Nusinersen in SMA, Study Shows
By Jared Kaltwasser
Patients who received regular physical therapy had improvement that was 4 times better than nusinersen alone, findings from this new study show.
The inclusion of physical therapy alongside Spinraza (nusinersen) leads to significantly better motor skill improvements in people with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) vs nusinersen alone, according to a new study.
The findings suggest that frequent physical therapy is an essential component of SMA treatment, according to the investigators. People with SMA have an insufficient level of survival motor neuron (SMN) protein, the results being muscle waste and motor deficiencies. The genetic disease is a leading cause of infant mortality, they added.
Nusinersen was the first of 3 therapies approved by the FDA to treat SMA. It targets SMN2 pre-mRNA. SMN2 is one of 2 genes that encode the SMN protein.
Writing in Frontiers in Bioscience - Landmark Edition, the authors explained that nusinersen helps create functional SMN proteins, leading to improvements in motor function, respiratory status, and nutritional status.
The investigators said physical therapy is an important part of the standard of care, as it can help maintain range of motion, increase muscle strength, and improve mobility. In the new report, the authors sought to better understand the role physical therapy plays in improving outcomes in patients taking nusinersen.
They recruited 55 children and adolescents with SMA who were taking nusinersen. The cohort included patients with SMA types 1, 2, and 3, and patients were split up based on their access to weekly physical therapy. Most participants (39) were in the nusinersen-plus-physical-therapy group. The remaining 16 patients received nusinersen alone or with infrequent physical therapy.
Over the course of the study, patients' motor evolution was evaluated by licensed physical therapists with SMA experience using SMA-specific assessments. Those evaluations took place at baseline (before nusinersen initiation), after 6 months on nusinersen, and after 1 year on the therapy.
Overall, the patients in the physical therapy group experienced a 12.66% improvement in their motor skill performance at 12 months compared with a 3.18% improvement in the nusinersen-alone group. The authors noted there was variability in the results between patients with different types of SMA. Patients with SMA type 1 had greater improvements than those with type 2. Type 1 is infantile-onset SMA and is the most common type. These patients typically do not live beyond 2 years. People with type 2 SMA generally experience disease onset after 6 months of age and have longer life expectancy.
The investigators said it is not clear why people with type 1 SMA appeared to benefit more.
"At this moment, we assume it is due to motor neuron loss and chronic denervation in patients with type 2 that started treatment long after they were diagnosed (as a consequence of the lack of treatment until 2018 - in Romania)," the authors wrote. They said other factors could also be responsible.
The investigators said starting treatment as quickly as possible is essential in order to preserve as many motor neurons as possible. "However, the administration of nusinersen alone is not expected to provide the best outcome in symptomatic SMA patients," they concluded. "In addition to therapy, it is critical that the standards of care be followed completely and correctly."
Those standards should include regular physical therapy at least 5 times per week, the authors said.

BkiUanPxK0iCl4WD2BNQ | As if we weren't already over-the-moon and out-of-our-minds excited after all the exciting Fuller House teasers, insider photos from the Fuller House set and utterly nostalgic glimpses back at the past. Like, we're STILL getting over the Fuller House trailer. Now, John Stamos, AKA cool Uncle Jesse, has posted a video on Instagram that is almost too adorable to handle.
In it, a young Stamos sits on the grass while toddler twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen toddle around him while the cast was filming Full House in Hawaii back in August of 1989. But the cuteness takes a turn to super-cuteness when one of the little ones (we're pretttty sure it's Ashley) walks right up and POW! punches her on-screen uncle right in the head. Oops!
Thank goodness the tiny fist doesn't hold much power, so it's soon all hugs and kisses for the adorable fictional family members.
Although we're still bummed that the adult twins won't be appearing on the show to reprise their career-making role of Michelle Tanner, cast and creators of Fuller House are still reassuring us that it may happen if the show gets a second season.

BkiUfQ7xaKgQTovFSVlA | Russia is among the world's leading oil producers, sitting atop the planet's eighth largest reserves. Like other oil-producing nations, it has been profoundly transformed by the oil industry. In The Depths of Russia, Douglas Rogers offers a nuanced and multifaceted analysis of oil's place in Soviet and Russian life, based on ethnographic fieldwork and archival research in the Perm region of the Urals. Moving beyond models of oil calibrated to capitalist centers and postcolonial "petrostates," Rogers traces the distinctive contours of the socialist―and then postsocialist―oil complex, showing how oil has figured in the making and remaking of space and time, state and corporation, exchange and money, and past and present. He pays special attention to the material properties and transformations of oil (from depth in subsoil deposits to toxicity in refining) and to the ways oil has echoed through a range of cultural registers.
The Depths of Russia challenges the common focus on high politics and Kremlin intrigue by considering the role of oil in barter exchanges and surrogate currencies, industry-sponsored social and cultural development initiatives, and the city of Perm's campaign to become a European Capital of Culture. Rogers also situates Soviet and post-Soviet oil in global contexts, showing that many of the forms of state and corporate power that emerged in Russia after socialism are not outliers but very much part of a global family of state-corporate alliances gathered at the intersection of corporate social responsibility, cultural sponsorship, and the energy and extractive industries. | c4 | 4 | 4 | 5 | 5 |

BkiUfXTxK1yAga6JuA1H | Q: Emgu exit unexpectedly after calling AdaptiveThreshold function I am totally new to emgu. I've been searching for a solution for this problem but I couldn't find any solution. I am trying to threshold a given Image using the built in adaptive threshold function but the program exits with no exception
Code :
public Image<Gray, byte> AdaptiveThreshold(Image<Bgr, byte> bmp, int windowSize)
{
Image<Gray, byte> gray = new Image<Gray, byte>(bmp.ToBitmap());
Image<Gray, byte> bw = gray.ThresholdAdaptive(new Gray(255), Emgu.CV.CvEnum.ADAPTIVE_THRESHOLD_TYPE.CV_ADAPTIVE_THRESH_MEAN_C, Emgu.CV.CvEnum.THRESH.CV_THRESH_OTSU, windowSize, new Gray(0.03));
return bw;
}
Function call :
this.pictureBox1.Image = r.AdaptiveThreshold(this.bmp, 15).ToBitmap(); // here where the application exit with no error and with no output in pictureBox1
r is an object of class which contains AdaptiveThreshold defined above
I copied all un-manged binaries from bin folder emgucv-windows-universal-cuda 2.9.0.1922\bin\x86 to my debug folder, I also added Emgu Dlls to my project's references Emgu.CV, Emgu.CV.UI, Emgu.Util
I also set my target platform to x86
I am working on visual studio 2013 under windows 8 .
A: It seems that for some reason the application is indeed exited when using Emgu.CV.CvEnum.THRESH.CV_THRESH_OTSU as threshold method for an adaptive threshold. The exact reason for this is yet unknown to me.
Though by reading the documentation of Open CV on the adaptive threshold functionality I've noticed that this is not valid value to be passed into this function. As found on this page:
Parameters:
src – Source 8-bit single-channel image.
dst – Destination image of the same size and the same type as src .
maxValue – Non-zero value assigned to the pixels for which the condition is
satisfied. See the details below.
adaptiveMethod – Adaptive thresholding algorithm to use, ADAPTIVE_THRESH_MEAN_C or ADAPTIVE_THRESH_GAUSSIAN_C . See the details below.
thresholdType – Thresholding type that must be either THRESH_BINARY or THRESH_BINARY_INV .
blockSize – Size of a pixel neighborhood that is used to calculate a threshold value for the pixel: 3, 5, 7, and so on.
C – Constant subtracted from the mean or weighted mean (see the details below). Normally, it is positive but may be zero or negative as well.
So you will have to adjust your used thresholdType to either Emgu.CV.CvEnum.THRESH.CV_THRESH_BINARY or Emgu.CV.CvEnum.THRESH.CV_THRESH_BINARY_INV to let your function work.

A circular has been published by defining terms of implementation procedures for granting authorizations for the construction of production facilities hydraulic source, under the law 13-09 on renewable energy.
Note that beyond 12 MW, the hydropower production is reserved for ONE. The new circular stipulates, however, that based on the results of the study, the developer is required to carry a maximum of 12 MW of installed capacity and commitment to achieve, where exploitable site power is greater 12 MW, the additional exploitable power when the legislative framework permits. If the usable power is less than 12 MW, the developer and commit to achieve maximum exploitable. The provisional authorization of the Ministry is granted within a maximum period of three months after receiving the opinion of the onee and the agreement in principle of the latter.
Moreover on the part of the royalty, ABH are called analyze the elements of profitability of projects subject to concession, and that, by requiring the proponent of business plans for the concession period requested. Financial projection assumptions of the business plan will verify and may be adjusted by the ABH. The dealer will pay a fee to use the DPH for hydropower currently applied to Onee which is set at 0.02 DH / kwh. The rest is in the form of fee occupancy DPH whose rate and base are set by the concession contract.
To highlight that the operations of the 13-09 law has already been denoted by the launch of three projects of micro-hydropower plants with a total capacity of 23.5 MW, a company driven by the "Energy 2 Earth" in the region of Meknès-Tafilalet, a capacity of 1.5 MW and the other two with a total capacity of 22 MW developed by VTS-Energy near Khémisset and Tahar Souk.

BkiUdXM4uBhi8u04pQXf | Annie's Tea Room can be reached by foot, car, canal boat or canoe. It's located in the hamlet of Thrupp about 10 miles north of Oxford. The tea room has been rennovated from part of the original British Waterways Yard, just next to an unusal lift bridge.
After a meander along the canal admiring all the lovely boats or a nature walk through the countryside, you can be sure of a lovely cup of tea and tasty cake at Annie's Tea Room.
The food served is homemade and in the case of the sandwiches made to order. With thick crusty bread from a local bakery you can be sure it's going to be fresh and tasty. Prices start from just under £4 so good value for money too. I highly recommend the scones which are baked fresh each day by the owner. There's seating inside but it's lovely to sit on the picnic tables outside or relax by the water next to the knitted mug and cake. Peruse the walls inside and you'll see exhibits from local artists.
Annie's Tea Room is more than just a great place to rest your weary feet midway on a walk. There are lots of activities on offer, making this a family friendly place to visit. Young children will enjoy searching and counting ladybird stickers and for older children there's a nature trail or treasure hunt to follow. Just ask inside the tea room for details and collect your clue sheets. There's even beginner pilates classes here on a Monday and Thursday evening.
How many ladybirds can you find?
After a cream tea or light lunch, why not get a different perspective of the canal by hiring a canoe or kayak? This is the base for Thrupp Canoe and Kayak Hire Centre. You can enjoy a whole day out or just splash around for an hour. This is a fun activity for both adults and kids. | c4 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 1 |

Installation: unzip the package to your OpenXcom directory and answer yes to the overwrites (if needed).
NOTE: THIS MOD SUPPRESSES THE NORMAL HUMAN WEAPONS FROM BEING AVAILABLE AND ADDS THE NEW VERSIONS TO THE GAME.
The purpose of this modification is give players starting weapons with real life equivalents, ie: weapons UN forces would be using against these UFO attacks. The starting human weapons have been replaced with the following: a 5.7mm machine pistol, a 6.8mm Assault Rifle, a Squad Automatic Weapon, and a .50 calibre Anti-Materiel Sniper rifle. There are also new additions of a pump combat shogun, a 9mm submachine gun, a .454 magnum revolver, a 7.62x51mm designated marksman's rifle, a single shot rocket launcher and an incendiary grenade that can be purchased, like all the human weapons and an alloy shogun to be researched later.
There are also two different armors that can be purchased, based on current armor technology.
This patch also increases some explosive damages and tweaks the other weapon damages, accuracies and fire rates for the other weapons to create some sort of game balance. In general, autofire will be much less accurate than before, making aimed and snap shots much more favourable.
This mod requires the range based accuracy mod from UFOextender enabled for proper balance.
1) Role Based Weaponry: Weapons now favor the roles they are used in combat. For doing entries on a UFO or building, shoguns, SMG and pistols are much more capable weapons than assault and sniper rifles. In fact, some weapons are inherently more inaccurate at close ranges than medium ranges. At the same time, many weapons suitable for use in entries lack long range capabilities.
2) Weapon Types: Powder weapons fire the most shots in auto and most snap shots of all the weapon damage types. Lasers have the best accuracy in autofire, at expense of their accuracy in aimed shots. Plasma weapons do the most damage.
3) Autofire is much less accurate than in the base game. Each weapon firing mode has it's advantages depending on the weapon's role and type. Making single aimed shots with the SAW or snap shots with the Sniper Rifle are not as efficient as using those weapons as they are intended.
■ adjust damage resistance and armor for aliens to match new paradigm - More resistance, less armor.
+ change so that Heavy Plasma and Plasma pistols cannot be manufactured by humans.
+ clips for those weapons, along with the DMR, SMG and SAW/LMG versions will be able to be manufactured, along with a new Plasma Magnum to differentiate with alien plasma pistol.
+ X-Com can still use the Plasma Pistol and Heavy Plasma captured and returned from the battlescape, but just can't manufacture them.
This seems to be backed by a lot of reasearch and fine tuning, I'm hoping to try it out as soon as possible.
Cheers. Let me know what you think. There's going to be a small updates as I find small bugs, but I'm already in planning for a modularized 2.0.
While I don't have the time and resources to try it right now, I am a great enthusiast of such mods. Thanks for the effort!
Much appreciated, especially coming from you.
I just LOVED the (damn few) first missions with your conventional weapons, makes balancing a squad easy-peasy and gives (even more) depth to the gameplay, thou lasers still dominate once on the scene....but not as much as before! the sniper rifle packs a decent punch and is NOT moveable, a REAL sniper rifle, and i LOVE the marksman's version as well.
I somewhat miss the HE rounds of my Heavycannon.....but SAW and the plethora of automated small arms compensate VERY VERY well.
I haven't digged enuff the shotgun but....I guess it's playstyle...there are a ton of options now so the shotguns seem heavy.
I am unsure about grenades and incendiaries being lighter than the smoke one....is this intentional?
I think I saw lasers LESS accurate at short range compared to powder weapons, specifically in autofire...is this intentional? also the Laser rifle has more accuracy in auto than in snap (+5%) which actually makes little sense.
BTW, I have you mod AND the alien armour expanded installed, is there any clash between these?
Excellent. Unfortunately, the new version is going to nerf the weapons damage back in line with the classical game, and the current damage will be for alloy rounds, but I may make two versions, one with the enhanced damage.
Yeah, taking away HE does take something away from the game, unfortunately, but I'm more just putting it into a more classical squad arms perspective.
Actually, the conceit behind the laser weapons is that they are somewhat inaccurate in aimed and snap, but without the recoil you'd find from the gunpowder and plasma weapons, autofire would be more accurate than those two. Also, unlike the other weapons, the accuracy drop is much less for laser weapons when you are running 'range based accuracy' which I suggest.
Thanks for all the feedback and I'm glad you're enjoying the mod.
By all means reduce that damage and have it upped with alloy ammo, it makes a lot of sense and I like the idea a lot.
Also the introduction of the single use rocket compensates the loss of the HeavyCannon.
I noticed that the laser weapons are more accurate at long range (I use the range based accuracy of course), and that's perfectly fine, the laser beam is impervious to any environmental effect and thus retains some sort of "infinite range" ...makes sense, it's plausible and FUN...makes me ponder if the squaddie neeeds a SAW or a Rifle or an Uzi.
It actually already IS better since you're firing more shots in the (almost) same timeframe, pushing this limit even further it's a bit unfair to the weapon. I mean this in mechanical terms, the way hit probability works in game....not a real life comparison, I am no weapons expert by any means.
Autofire>snap could only be defended if the autofire is considered "aimed auto fire", and, game-wise, costs considerably more TUs than snap shot; otherwise the snapshot becomes a dead option.
Sometimes it's not about every shot being a valuable option to the player. Snap shot has the huge advantage of being the only shot that can be reaction fired. Maybe you won't use it because auto-fire is the better option, but your soldiers are probably grateful to have it any ways.
A lower accuracy snap-fire weapon could represent a burdensome weapon with high RoF. It's hard to readjust your aim to react to something unexpected (reaction snap shot is not so good), but if you can find the target and have time to setup, you can fire an accurate burst at it.
I had a similar issue with my scatter laser, an auto-shot only, high RoF weapon. My breachers (high reaction agents who clear UFOs) ended up never reaction firing and it was rather terrible. I added a (not really appealing during your turn) option for snap fire (1/3 the cost, 1 shot instead of 5, slightly higher accuracy) and it made a big difference in the usefulness of the weapon, even though I barely ever used the shot myself.
This is part of the rationale, but it's an oversight. Snap shot should be a little bit better than autofire, in this case, since in ET, the laser weapons have high autofire accuracy at the expense of other modes.
Now, the only one that has this issue is the pistol. The rifle has some differentiation via the range based accuracy (but I may have missed the mark).
I will be making a few more adjustments to make things differentiate. | c4 | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
BkiUdV04ubnjoxKrZuq_ | I really like Toot and am pleased that they did this!
I just wish there was a way to approve followers, unless I'm missing something?
Then I could get rid of the other app I'm using.
@UnclearFuture Huh, really? That seems an odd shortcoming - though I suppose one can hop back to the web UI to accomplish that once in a while. I'll take a look.
Yeah, as I said, I might be missing something and I /hope/ I am. So, thank you for looking.
True, although I have 2FA and for some reason the web ui isn't working on the computer I use, probably something I've done though, heh.
So for now, I just use another app to approve followers. I guess the assumption is that most people don't have that feature enabled, therefore most clients don't feature it.
I also, strangely, can't change my username, in the other app I can though.
@UnclearFuture I suppose it could simply be on the To Do list, and currently just hasn't reached the front of the queue. Could maybe check with the dev? They've very responsive re queries and feature suggestions.
Okay, thank you, I will ask :). Sorry for troubling you with all that. | c4 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 1 |

BkiUfVs5qhDCpkQ4EMbR | New Volkswagen Golf 1.0 S 2017 review
At just over £18k the Volkswagen Golf 1.0 S is the entry-level model in the range, but is it worth avoiding?
by: Lawrence Allan
Overall Auto Express Rating
Buy used for less at Buyacar
Despite being the cheapest, buyers opting for the entry-level Volkswagen Golf needn't feel short-changed. The S-spec offers more performance and equipment than you might expect, while retaining the excellent road manners and high quality interior found higher up the range. Better value can be found elsewhere in the family hatch class, however.
It's not often that we get the chance to drive an entry-level version of a mainstream car these days. As more and more buyers opt for tempting monthly finance deals, stepping up to a higher-spec trim is more affordable than ever.
But what if you want a well-built, spacious and comfortable car, and have no earthy need for any of the bells and whistles of flagship models? We've driven the most basic Volkswagen Golf in 1.0 S guise to see what you're losing out on by choosing the cheapest version.
• Best hatchbacks on sale right now
For £18,420, this five-door model is near-enough the least expensive Golf you can buy. There is a three-door model, but both cars come with an 84bhp 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine.
In the past, S-spec VWs were about as well-appointed as a disused barn, but that's no longer the case. Sure, you don't get alloy wheels, but you do get an eight-inch touchscreen with DAB radio and Bluetooth, electric windows front and rear, and even autonomous emergency braking. Certainly, bar the omission of sat-nav and cruise control, most people would find it has all the kit they'd reasonably want.

Most importantly, though, it still retains the important details that make the Golf one of the very best in terms of cabin quality. There's the same granite-hewn solidity to every control, switch and trim panel, making it feel like you're in something more expensive than you actually are. The glossy screen wouldn't look out of place in a pricier model, either, and does without some of the gimmicky gesture control features offered on VW's high-end units.
There's more surprise and delight when you hit the road. The TSI badge on the bootlid might fool others into thinking you've picked a higher-spec car, but the 1.0-litre unit is the least powerful engine you can get in a Golf. The 84bhp output is worryingly modest for a car that weighs nearly 1,300kg, but the healthier 175Nm torque figure is what ensures this entry-level car doesn't feel as sluggish as you'd expect.
Granted, with a 0-62mph time of 11.9 seconds it won't be winning any sprint races, yet it feels more urgent than that in normal driving thanks to a strong mid-range. There little point in revving it beyond 5,000rpm, but if you do the motor remains super-smooth and refined, with a muted yet pleasing three-cylinder thrum.
The five-speed manual 'box means you'll find yourself holding on to ratios more than in the six-speed models, but the shift action is light and precise. While it's not an ideal motorway companion, it doesn't feel too out of its depth, helped by the Golf's impressive wind and road noise isolation. If you're planning to carry passengers on a regular basis, then the 108bhp version of this engine makes things a bit more effortless, too.
The only way in which the 1.0-litre engine has affected the handling is that you tend to approach corners carrying less speed. It retains every Golf's strong handling poise and remarkably composed ride; the latter aided by the tiny 15-inch steel wheels and thick sidewalls.
Our only real complaint is that it isn't as cheap as we'd like it to be. A number of the Golf's key rivals can be had with more power or equipment for the same money, while the VW Group's own rivals (the SEAT Leon and Skoda Octavia) are also better value to begin with.

BkiUd2w4ubnjorNy4kEr | Sarah Murray, a second year Master's student in the Natural Resources and Sustainable Development program, has been awarded a research grant from the Fulbright U.S. Student Program to conduct research in Galicia, Spain. Sarah's research will use a mixed methods approach to examine how the dual understandings of fish population dynamics, represented by the E.U.'s Common Fishery Policy (CFP) and fishers' local ecological knowledge, interact within the hake fishery in Galicia. She argues that uncovering the divergences between these two understandings may reveal the sources of noncompliance, as fishers are less likely to follow regulations that they do not believe to be credible. In addition, the knowledge of the fishers may provide important information about the hake that could be used to strengthen the CFP's model.
Galicia's rich fishing history and large artisanal fleet make it an ideal location to study local ecological knowledge of fish. There, knowledge of fishing practices and the sea have been passed down from generation to generation for centuries. This rich history, in addition to the present day cultural, social, and economic importance of fishing, is also the reason that it is essential to successfully manage the fisheries in Galicia. However, 62% of Iberian Peninsula fish stocks are beyond safe biological limits, including its most valuable fish stock, the European hake. Sarah's study aims to provide insight into two key culprits of this failure, rampant noncompliance and flawed fisheries stock models. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 4 |

BkiUfxY4dbgg008TTNIv | In June, I wrote about a scuffle that erupted at an Orford Selectboard meeting over the job that the town's highway crew did — or didn't do, depending on your point of view — cleaning up after a sudden windstorm knocked out power and brought down tree limbs in parts of the community.
The New Hampshire State Police investigated the altercation.
So what came of it? Orford resident Lawrence Hibbard, 62, was recently charged with simple assault for allegedly grabbing Selectboard member Paul Goundrey by the shirt collar at the May 9 meeting. Goundrey told me that his cotton shirt was torn and he had suffered a bruise on his collarbone.
In legal parlance, Hibbard "did knowingly cause unprivileged physical contact to another," the arrest report alleges.
Hibbard, a logger, has pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor. His trial is scheduled for Oct. 1 in Lebanon District Court.
Now that the case is in the court system it probably makes sense for Hibbard to fight it. If he loses, the maximum he could be fined is $1,200 — no small amount, for sure — but more important, a conviction carries no jail time. So unless Hibbard is offered a plea deal that reduces the charge from a misdemeanor to a violation — eliminating the potential of a criminal record — it's worth rolling the dice.
Hibbard's attorney, Len Harden, who has an office in Lebanon, told me on Tuesday that he couldn't comment because he hadn't received the police affidavit. When I checked at the courthouse on Monday, the state police still had not handed it in.
As I wrote a couple of months ago, Orford (population 1,200) is going through a rough patch. The town seems divided into factions. Like much of the country, Orford's battle lines have a lot to do with who voted for whom in the 2016 presidential election.
Also in play is the friction between old-timers vs. newcomers that occasionally boils over in many small towns. Except in Orford, you can have lived in town for 20 years, and still be considered a carpetbagger.
But as the trouble at the Selectboard meeting demonstrated, Orford is taking the squabbling to new heights.
On April 30, the three-member Selectboard abruptly fired road agent Roger Hadlock. The dispute was partly over whether the town's road crew should be allowed to work four 10-hour days with Fridays off in the summer.
Some people in town argued that with all the nights, weekends and holidays that the crew puts in during the winter they deserved a bit of a break. Others wouldn't hear it. They're pushing for the board to install a time clock in the town garage to keep track of the crew's comings and goings.
Hadlock's interim replacement, Terry Straight, who was the subject of Hibbard's ire, didn't survive the summer. He quit in July, leaving two openings on the three-man crew.
Goundrey, who retired as Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center's grounds supervisor last year, submitted his Selectboard resignation shortly after the infamous May 9 meeting.
When I interviewed Goundrey and Hibbard separately in June, both men acknowledged that they could have handled the situation better.
After Hibbard lambasted the road crew, which was down to one worker at the time of the storm, Goundrey let fly with an F-bomb. "I just kind of snapped," Goundrey told me.
Goundrey then headed for the door, but Hibbard stood in his way. Their brief altercation was "broken up by several other attendees" of the meeting, according to board minutes.
Goundrey was "out of control, but I guess I was a little bit, too," Hibbard said.
After fielding Goundrey's complaint, Trooper Derek Newcomb interviewed Hibbard. "People are making more out of this than needs to be," said Hibbard when we talked in his driveway in June.
Goundrey, who has served on the Selectboard off and on since 1985, told me when I called him Monday that he doesn't regret getting police involved.
Still it's unfortunate that this became a police matter that has now made its way to the courthouse.
Gone are the days when two men, who both seemed to have lost their cool, could be brought together to talk through their differences over coffee. Or as an olive branch, a new shirt offered to replace the one that was torn.
No doubt, Orford will eventually have a fully staffed road crew that perhaps keeps everyone in town happy. More important, though, will be the re-establishment of a level of civility that will allow townspeople to have their disagreements without resorting to violence, police or the courts. | c4 | 5 | 1 | 5 | 2 |

Five years have passed since the Sarafovo Airport bomb attack in Burgas, reported BGNES.
In the terrorist attack in 2012, five Israelis and one Bulgarian citizen were killed.
Novinite.com recalls:
A powerful bomb carried by a suicide bomber ripped through a bus at the arrivals terminal of Burgas Sarafovo Airport, on the Black Sea coast, on 18 July 2012, killing the Bulgarian driver and six Israeli tourists.
Two years later the Bulgarian prosecuting authorities and the State Agency for National Security (DANS) disclosed the name of the suicide bomber as Mohamad Hassan El-Husseini (alternatively, Mohamed Hassan El Husseim). He was born in Lebanon in 1989 and held a dual French-Lebanese citizenship. He had been staying in Bulgaria under the false identity of Jacque Felipe Martin.
Meliad Farah also used a fake identity, entering Bulgaria under the name of Brian Jeremiah Jameson, while Hassan El-Hajj Hassan travelled under the name of Ralph William Rico, the Bulgarian Ministry of the Interior said in July 2013.

Any suggestion? plz :)
A: As Bob Hanlon has explained, Show will only inherit the options from the first element. You may consider working with Mesh and MeshStyle:
SetOptions[ ListLinePlot, Frame -> True, FrameTicksStyle -> Black, GridLines -> Automatic, Mesh -> All, MeshStyle -> Red];
w1 = ListLinePlot @ { {0, 88}, {24.2, 0} };

Europe's leading MMA promotion continue their commitment to growing grass-roots amateur MMA by announcing the Cage Warriors Academy (CWA) Grand Prix: the biggest all-in amateur mixed martial arts tournament of its kind, to find the best and most legitimate stars in Europe.
In just a few months, many of Europe's most promising MMA prospects procured by Cage Warriors' Academy organisations in North West and South East England, Wales and a fourth, yet to be confirmed Academy region, will begin preparation for the CWA Grand Prix. Each of Cage Warriors' Academies will put forward a number of amateur athletes from both the U.K and further across Europe. 28 fighters across 7 weight divisions will compete for the CWA Grand Prix Trophy in each division, the chance to fight on an official Cage Warriors event and, if successful, the option to turn pro with Cage Warriors.
Jack Shore, Mattia Galbiati
"As the longest running MMA promotion on the continent, we feel a responsibility to give young athletes the chance to develop themselves in front of a world audience," says Cage Warriors President Graham Boylan. "We are a fighter first promotion, and this tournament will give the best talent a clear pathway from the amateur leagues to the top. If you're serious about proving yourself, the CWA Grand Prix is the place to do so."
The Cage Warriors Academies are headed by some of the best talent developers in Europe, all with one goal in mind – to legitimise and provide maximum exposure to amateur MMA in safe and regulated environments. Some of Cage Warriors' fastest rising stars came through the Academy ranks prior to turning pro, including Belgium's Brian Bouland, Sweden's Cornelia Holm, flyweight champion Molly McCann and Welsh prospect Jack 'Tank' Shore.
Cage Warriors management are close to finalising the tournament structure, with Boylan confirming that the Grand Prix will take place throughout three phases between now and the end of 2018, and that the semi-final match ups will be announced by an official Facebook Live draw.
With the final fighters in each division completing the tournament on a live broadcast before the main card on one of Cage Warriors' massive events, the CWA Grand Prix offers exposure, credibility and experience unlikely to be found on any other amateur MMA showcase.

Net Debt-to-EBITDA Ratio Definition
What Is the Net Debt-to-EBITDA Ratio?
The net debt-to-EBITDA (earnings before interest depreciation and amortization) ratio is a measurement of leverage, calculated as a company's interest-bearing liabilities minus cash or cash equivalents, divided by its EBITDA.
The net debt-to-EBITDA ratio is a debt ratio that shows how many years it would take for a company to pay back its debt if net debt and EBITDA are held constant. If a company has more cash than debt, the ratio can be negative. It is similar to the debt/EBITDA ratio, but net debt subtracts cash and cash equivalents while the standard ratio does not.
The net debt-to-EBITDA ratio is a debt ratio that shows how many years it would take for a company to pay back its debt if net debt and EBITDA are held constant.
When analysts look at the net debt-to-EBITDA ratio, they want to know how well a company can cover its debts.
It is similar to the debt/EBITDA ratio, but net debt subtracts cash and cash equivalents while the standard ratio does not.
If a company has more cash than debt, the ratio can be negative.
The Formula for the Net Debt-to-EBITDA Is
Net Debt to EBITDA=Total Debt−Cash&EquivalentsEBITDANet \ Debt \ to \ EBITDA = \frac{Total \ Debt - Cash \& Equivalents}{EBITDA}Net Debt to EBITDA=EBITDATotal Debt−Cash&Equivalents
Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio
What Does the Net Debt-to-EBITDA Ratio Tell You?
The net debt-to-EBITDA ratio is popular with analysts because it takes into account a company's ability to decrease its debt. Ratios higher than 4 or 5 typically set off alarm bells because this indicates that a company is less likely to be able to handle its debt burden, and thus is less likely to be able to take on the additional debt required to grow the business.
The net debt-to-EBITDA ratio should be compared with that of a benchmark or the industry average to determine the creditworthiness of a company. Additionally, a horizontal analysis could be conducted to determine whether a company has increased or decreased its debt burden over a specified period. For horizontal analysis, ratios or items in the financial statement are compared with those of previous periods to determine how the company has grown over the specified time frame.
Example of Net Debt-to-EBITDA
Suppose an investor wishes to conduct horizontal analysis on Company ABC to determine its ability to pay off its debt. For its previous fiscal year, Company ABC's short-term debt was $6.31 billion, long-term debt was $28.99 billion, and cash holdings were $13.84 billion.
Therefore, Company ABC reported net debt of $21.46 billion, or $6.31 billion plus $28.99 billion less $13.84 billion, and an EBITDA of $60.60 billion during the fiscal period. Consequently, Apple had a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.35 or $21.46 billion divided by $60.60 billion.
For its recent fiscal year, Apple had short-term debt of $8.50 billion, long-term debt of $53.46 billion, and $21.12 billion cash. The company increased its net debt by 90.31%, to $40.84 billion year-over-year. Company ABC reported an EBITDA of $77.89 billion, a 28.53% increase from its EBITDA the previous year.
Therefore, Company ABC had a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 0.52 or $40.84 billion divided by $77.89 billion. Company ABC's net debt to EBITDA ratio increased by 0.17, or 49.81% year-over-year.
Limitations of Net Debt-to-EBITDA
Analysts like the net debt/EBITDA ratio because it is easy to calculate. Debt figures can be found on the balance sheet and EBITDA can be calculated from the income statement. The issue, however, is that it may not provide the most accurate measure of earnings. More than earnings, analysts want to gauge the amount of cash available for debt repayment.
Depreciation and amortization are non-cash expenses that do not really impact cash flows, but interest can be a significant expense for some companies. Banks and investors looking at the current debt/EBITDA ratio to gain insight on how well the company can pay for its debt may want to consider the impact of interest on the debt, even if that debt will be included in a new issuance. In this way, net income minus capital expenditures, plus depreciation and amortization may be the better measure of cash available for debt repayment.
Enterprise Value – EV Definition
Enterprise value (EV) is a measure of a company's total value, often used as a comprehensive alternative to equity market capitalization. EV includes in its calculation the market capitalization of a company but also short-term and long-term debt as well as any cash on the company's balance sheet.
How Net Debt Is Calculated and Used to Measure a Company's Liquidity
Net debt is a liquidity metric used to determine how well a company can pay all of its debts if they were due immediately. Net debt shows how much cash would remain if all debts were paid off and if a company has enough liquidity to meet its debt obligations.
How to Use the Solvency Ratio
The solvency ratio is a key metric used to measure an enterprise's ability to meet its debt and other obligations.
How Return on Equity Works
Return on equity (ROE) is a measure of financial performance calculated by dividing net income by shareholders' equity. Because shareholders' equity is equal to a company's assets minus its debt, ROE could be thought of as the return on net assets.
How to Best Use the Debt-to-Capital Ratio
The debt-to-capital ratio is a measurement of a company's financial leverage. The debt-to-capital ratio is calculated by taking the company's interest-bearing debt, both short- and long-term liabilities and dividing it by the total capital.
What the EBITDA-to-Sales Ratio Tells Us
The EBITDA-to-sales ratio is a financial metric used to assess a company's profitability by comparing its revenue with its operating income before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.

BkiUa6vxK7ICUyBuyq_E | The Australian Caravan Club was launched in September 2006, when some forward thinking caravanners perceived a real need for a truly representative national organisation to meet the wide variety of interests and needs of caravanners and camper-trailer owners. Our objectives are clearly set out in our Constitution.
Existing caravan clubs and Associations do an excellent job running social and rallying activities for caravanners, but do not appear to be a single body able, or wishing, to speak up on National issues. We see ourselves, in part, as a lobby group - not as an organisation set up to attack the RV industry – but rather to work with existing organisations for the benefit of all caravanners and camper-trailer owners.
The Australian Caravan Club was set up using the model of the UK's 'The Caravan Club' - an organisation with huge benefits for members with a current membership of more than 300,000.
We have appointed several dynamic committees to look after Policy, Budget Camping, Technical and Advisory, Marketing and our annual National Muster and AGM. These committees are doing sterling work – the Budget Camping Committee is responsible for liaison and lobbying of Government bodies and other authorities to see that facilities for caravanners are not only maintained but improved.
Our Marketing Committee has successfully organised our participation in a number of major caravan shows and has developed a healthy relationship with trade advertisers and sponsors to enhance our activities and provide more benefits for members.
It was never intended that the ACC would be in competition with existing caravan and camper-trailer clubs - we believe there is room for both types of organisations and many caravanners hold dual memberships including our Chairman and another Director.
Over twenty local branches have been formed in all states. Our branches organise social weekends called 'Musters' and similar activities including the occasional 'tag-along' tour.
Unlike other clubs that are State-based incorporated bodies, the ACC is an Australian Registered Company that reflects our truly National identity. Our club is managed by a Board of six Directors elected by our club members at our Annual Meeting. All directors are dedicated volunteers who receive no remuneration for their work.
Although our registered office is in Queensland, our club is a National body with members from every State plus the ACT and the Northern Territory.
A copy of the Constitution may be downloaded from this website.
The document is in Adobe pdf format and an appropriate reader may be obtained free from Adobe by clicking the above button.
A Board of directors controls and manages the affairs of the Club according to the Constitution. It consists of upto six directors elected by the membership. A number of committees have been established to assist the board in specific areas. Details of the Club's Directors are listed at the end of this page.
The Club publishes a full colour magazine, The Nomad, containing a wealth of topics including among other things, specialist articles, technical advice, news on advocacy, news from our branches and committees, contact lists and our upcoming events calendar. The Nomad is posted to members each quarter.
Social activities are organised through locality based branches and we now have many branches operating in all states with more on the way. To find and contact a branch in your area, just refer to the Contact Us section of this web site.
Our social activities are called musters and each of our branches organises upwards of six musters per year.
Branch musters are always an enjoyable occasion for all attendees and typically each muster attracts 20 to 30 caravans. The Branch musters are generally held over a weekend at a location within easy reach of the Branch's members.
Each year a national muster is held to coincide with the Club's Annual General Meeting. The national muster is a much larger gathering held over a number of days in a central location. Our first national muster was held at Byron Bay in 2007 and covered by several caravanning magazines including The Caravan & Motorhome, the 2008 muster was held in Casino, NSW, the 2009 in Mildura, VIC, the 2010 in Maryborough, QLD, the 2011 National Muster in Bingara in NSW, the 2012 National Muster in Mallacoota, VIC, the 2013 National Muster in Mudgee, NSW, the 2014 National Muster in Beaudesert, QLD and the 2016 National Muster was held in Shepparton, VIC. The National Muster is somewhat more formal in structure and as well as the AGM itself includes seminars conducted by various experts on caravan related topics. The social side is not forgotten, evening Happy Hours are well attended and the Boules competition, now an annual fixture are keenly fought.
Details of upcoming musters are listed in our magazine, The Nomad and in an on-line events calendar.
The Club maintains a dynamic website containing a large amount of content including, latest news, events calendar, tips and tools, a membership directory and an active members forum. It is a very useful resource for the sharing of experiences, advice and other information.
Just click Join The Club to find out more about membership.

BkiUdj45qg5A59Bh1PB6 | New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow Jerseys is the center of all the controversy as Nike moved to court against Rebook to prove it is superior.
Nike (NKE) claimed in a lawsuit in U.S. District Court that Reebok International has used Tebow's name on Jets-related apparel without permission since it was announced last week that Tebow was traded from the Denver Broncos to New York.
The Tebow trade occurred just before Nike replaces Reebok as the official supplier of NFL team uniforms for the 2012 season.
The lawsuit, which seeks unspecified damages, claims Reebok misappropriated publicity rights, interfered with business relationships and unjustly enriched itself because it failed to get Tebow's permission before launching the products.
Reebok, based in Canton, Mass., did not immediately respond to a request seeking comment. The lawsuit said Reebok did not respond to demands to cease Tebow apparel sales after a Tebow representative sent a letter to the company Friday.
According to the lawsuit, new Nike-supplied uniforms for all 32 NFL teams will be unveiled next week in New York City, kicking off a five-year deal for Nike to be the league's exclusive provider of on-field apparel, including game uniforms and sideline apparel. Reebok was the supplier for the past decade.
The lawsuit added that it was unlikely that a consumer who buys an unauthorized Tebow jersey or T-shirt from Reebok this week will buy an authorized Tebow item from Nike next week.

AUDIO-TECH, BUSINESS FOR SALE, EXIT STRATEGIES, SAN FRANCISCO, UNICORNS, VENTURE CAPITAL, WEARABLE DEVICES
raised $165 million in a drastic down round at half its previous $3.3 billion valuation, led by the Kuwait Investment Authority, bringing its total funding so far, to over $890 million. Its blue chip investors include Andreessen Horowitz, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Deutsche Telekom, BlackRock, JPMorgan, Sequoia Capital, Khosla Ventures, Wells Fargo, Silver Lake Partners and others. Jawbone's prominent board members include Michael Abbott, general partner at Kleiner Perkins; Roelof Botha, partner at Sequoia Capital; Ben Horowitz, co-founder & partner at Andreessen Horowitz; and Marissa Mayer, CEO & president at Yahoo! Jawbone was founded in 1997. The company's co-founder and chairman Alex Asseily told Fortune that selling the non-wearable business would be "painful" but prudent, after Jawbone's share of the speaker market in the US reportedly shrunk to approximately 5%. The move comes a month after the U.S. International Trade Commission ruled against Jawbone in a patent dispute against No.1 wearable device market leader Fitbit, which had a 26.9% market share in 2015, according to research firm IDC. No. 2, Xiaomi had a 15.4% market share, followed by No. 3, Apple with a 14.9% share, No. 4, Garmin with a 4.2% share, and No. 5, Samsung with a 4% share of the market in 2015. Jawbone faces stiff competition from its top 5 rivals in the worldwide wearable device market, which grew 171.6% in 2015 according to research firm IDC. "Triple-digit growth highlights growing interest in the wearables market from both end-users and vendors," noted Ramon Llamas, research manager for IDC's Wearables team. "It shows that wearables are not just for the technophiles and early adopters; wearables can exist and are welcome in the mass market. And since wearables have yet to fully penetrate the mass market, there is still plenty of room for growth in multiple vectors: new vendors, form factors, applications, and use cases." "What is warranted is continued innovation and development," added Llamas. "The market can only get so far with 'me too' and 'copycat' wearable devices. End-users expect improvement from what they have now, and new applications to spur replacement and increased adoption." "Fashion and design will play an equally important role in increasing adoption," said Jitesh Ubrani, Senior Research Analyst for IDC Mobile Device Trackers. "Simply encrusting your watch with gold and jewels is not going to cut it. Rather forming partnerships with notable fashion icons, a route taken by Fitbit and Apple, is far more likely to succeed. "It's also worth noting that the wearables market isn't just about smartwatches and fitness bands," continued Ubrani. "Though the top 5 certainly dominate with wrist-worn devices, there's been an immense amount of growth in other form factors like clothing, footwear, and eyewear – form factors that arguably require even more fashion sense than watches or bands." "The two patents that are the subject of the ITC ruling represent only a portion of Jawbone's case against Fitbit and a small subset of Jawbone's overall patent portfolio," Jawbone said. In January, the company's relatively new president Sameer Samat departed within less than a year, and is said to have been replaced by CEO and co-founder Hosain Rahman. Last year, Jawbone laid off about 80 employees in two rounds of layoffs, closing down its New York office. "As part of our strategy to create a more streamlined and successful company, we have made the difficult decision to reorganize the company which has had an impact on our global workforce," a company spokesperson said.]]> | commoncrawl | 4 | 2 | 4 | 2 |
BkiUdlHxaKgQHaLUvZTL | Nintendo Switch Sales Would Pick Up In Japan: Media Create
By Sarmad Lillah Jul 3, 2017 Oct 20, 2021 Share
Nintendo Switch sales are not blazing any trails in Japan, its hometown, but the machine overall is doing pretty well for itself. However, Nintendo would love to see a boost in sales and if Media Create is to be believed, the Japanese gaming giant may see it soon.
According to Media Create, it took just 17 days for Nintendo Switch to reach a million units and its attach rate has improved as well. Their analysis shows that compared to PS4 and Wii U, the Nintendo Switch's growth is comparatively better and is expected further jump up.
Worldwide sales stand at 2.7 million units and should touch 3 million in the coming weeks and months. Software support is lacking at the moment and there isn't much to play. However, Nintendo had a decent lineup in the pipeline.
During the recent shareholders meeting for Nintendo, the company revealed that Nintendo Switch has sold over 2.7 million units since launch and 2.74 million units to be exact. The company also revealed that Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild sold a total of 3.84 million units on both Switch and Wii U, of which over 1 million were sold on Wii U and over 2.7 million on Switch.
Moreover, a recent report mentioned that Nintendo has increased the production of the console to 18 million units for the current fiscal year. The production increase will help overcome the shortages.
Do you think Nintendo Switch sales would pick up once more games are available to play? How much is third party support important? Share what you think in the comments below.

BkiUci_xK6wB9dbuTKNx | Mississippi folk pottery represents a mixture of the two primary American stoneware traditions of the nineteenth century. During the early periods of settlement, potters working in the alkaline-glazing tradition of the Deep South as well as salt-glazing potters from Tennessee and the Ohio Valley came to the state. Pottery-making families such as the Leopards, Loyds, and Mortons moved with the advancing American frontier into Mississippi, where they practiced a cottage industry of stoneware production, providing essential products such as churns, storage jars, bowls, and pitchers for their neighbors. These early potters exploited clays suitable for stoneware, primarily from the eastern Mississippi counties of Winston, Lauderdale, Neshoba, Monroe, and Itawamba. They established lasting "jugtowns" in communities such as Louisville in Winston County, Tremont in Itawamba County, and Lockhart in Lauderdale County.
Most American folk potters used salt to glaze their utilitarian stoneware, a process that requires salt to be thrown into the hot kiln. Early potters such as northern-born Joseph Royal Tanner and Peter Cribbs brought this glaze into northeastern Mississippi long before the Civil War. The resulting gases cause a glass coating to form on the pottery in the kiln. Soon thereafter Tennessee potter William Loyd and family came to the area, also presumably using the salt glaze. The Loyds made stoneware tombstones that can be found the older graveyards of northeastern Mississippi and northwestern Alabama. The family took out a US patent for this tombstone design in 1879 while living in Tremont.
A more distinctly southern style of pottery developed in the Edgefield District of South Carolina, and families from that area such as the Leopards, Presleys, and Rushtons brought their alkaline-glazing tradition into Mississippi. This pottery was dipped into a glaze formula made from clay mixed with either wood ashes or lime. After the ware was fired, this glaze left a shiny green-to-brown finish on the stoneware. These potters also used a type of rectangular kiln known as a groundhog kiln. This style of pottery advanced with the frontier from the Atlantic Ocean to central Texas over two generations. The Leopards were a typical southern pottery-making family, originating in South Carolina before moving to Georgia, then to Alabama, and finally to Winston County before the Civil War. Some members of the family later moved to Rusk County, Texas. Thad Leopard made pottery in Mississippi well into the twentieth century.
In the latter part of the nineteenth century, an expanding railroad system introduced new types of pottery glazes. The brown Albany slip and white feldspar glaze (also known as Bristol glaze) replaced the salt and alkaline glazes. During this time, potters from Europe and northern states worked in Mississippi. The Scottish McAdams family worked near Meridian. Another group of nonsouthern potters was located in Marshall County.
In Mississippi today, only the Stewart family of Louisville still engages in traditional pottery making. Homer Wade Stewart began making pottery in Winston County in 1888, and his grandson, Frank, and great-grandson, Keith, continue the family tradition. Frank and his family received Mississippi Governor's Award for Excellence in the Arts in 2000. | c4 | 5 | 3 | 5 | 1 |

I tried to use the picamera python (2.7) library, but it doesn't work. The camera is enabled in Raspberry Pi, and it seems to work well (as tested by raspivid -t 0 in the terminal). However, this simple python script freezes all the time and even CTRL+C is unble to stop the process, I need to terminate it from a new window by sudo kill
import time

with picamera.PiCamera() as camera:
camera.start_preview()
time.sleep(2)
camera.capture('/home/pi/test.jpg')
camera.stop_preview()
The same script works fine with the standard (non infrared) Pi Camera though. The documentation http://picamera.readthedocs.org/en/release-1.5/# doesn't seem to say anything specific about the PiNoIR camera board.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

BkiUdRI4dbghT_5T4W-l | S9 "update". And problems with mobile data.
Traveling in Europe. UK- some problems with data. France- no internet. Belgium- no internet. Netherlands- no internet. Germany- I have data. Poland- no data. Lithuania, Latvia- I have data. Estonia- no data. Finland- no data. And yes, I have tried to reload turn on/off phone, force stop some apps. Nothing helps. I haven't any problems in these countries before. And yes, I'm traveling a lot. And no, I don't want to reset back to factory settings, 'couse it will "update" back to the same *hitty "update". Any tips, becouse Samsung customer service to busy to solve problems?
This looks to me as if it could be related to your phone service provider rather than the phone itself.
The first things I would look at are the settings around Network Operator to make sure that they are set up to automatically switch to partner networks in those countries. I would also contact the service supplier to see if they have any suggestions.
I'm using the same operator on 3 phones for more than 4 years. S7 and and S7 edge doesn't have these problems, becouse they aren't updated. All these phones connects to the same operator in all countries. "Home" operator blames Samsung and Google (Android), becouse I bought S9 from Samsung, not from phone operator.
I am having the same problem in the UK, so no switching provider. suddenly mobile data stops working for several hours wherever I am in the UK. Big problem when this means, as it has twice in 3 days, I am using Google Maps as a satnav for a long drive. As today, it worked up until around lunchtime, but I noticed no service at all switching back to mobile data from wifi. I've driven for 4 hours, and still nothing.
Hi all I am having the same issue. The data connection unexpectedly stops working for several hours then comes back. Itn some cases it is not available for one or more days. It all started with the last update I received on Saturday the 7th of July. Is this happening to others as well?
Try manualy settings-> connections -> mobile networks -> access point names -> "network provider". That helped me.
It's ever since the last update that Samsung released. Turning off VoLTE calls fixed the issue for me.
Resetting the APN did for a while until I reconnected back on to my WIFI and then back to mobile data, then it wouldnt connect again.
Guess we'll have to wait for next months update and hope that there is a fix included. | c4 | 1 | 4 | 4 | 2 |
