Karl Ferdinand Friedich von Nagler (1770-1846) (Lugt 2529)
Kupferstich Kabinett der Staatliche Museen, Berlin (Lugt 2482) Notes:
1. The story of Abraham and Isaac is told in Genesis 22: Note that Isaac's mother apparently was 90 years old and Abraham apparently was 99 when their son Isaac was born. According to Genesis 22, as Abraham prepares to sacrifice his son Isaac, the angel of the Lord called out to him "Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God because you have not withheld your son, your only son." 2. Several very minor repairs. Signs of wear in upper corners but overall an outstanding impression of this major work.

Okay so this budget stair remodel is seemingly the project that never ended… It was one of the first things we demo-ed and one of the last things we wrapped up. The ultimate stair makeover! You can see how it all went down at that link. I do however want to review it a bit for you to see.
I will admit other people could have gotten this done in a lot faster manner, but I am a slow like molasses remodeler when it effect more than one space. And this “little” –ahem, huge remodel effected the entry, stairs and living room, which also was effected by the kitchen, so I had to know what everything was going to look like all at once, and I am a sort of plan and change things as you go girl…. (And this people, is why I haven’t built a house yet. I will someday but there are TOO many things to think about that effect each other. I am just not ready to make that kind of time and brainpower investment yet!)
But anyway, we all need to be reassured that yes, this project ended so here is a sneak peek!
Ahh… so much better. than the before…
Let’s chat shall we, about how we got to this point…The staircase in the entry was one of the things that I liked about this house, but in its original state it made the entry space feel SO SMALL! I really wanted to have an entry space and not just arrive in the living room.
I love the idea of entry spaces and it is one thing I really haven’t had in my houses (technically in my first house I had one but it was all doorways so I couldn’t make anything of it).
I wanted to make these stairs into a feature for the house. Something like these inspiration shots I was looking at, this is in the days before Pinterest, so I am not sure of all the sources and many of them were ripped and scanned from my favorite magazines (especially This Old House image 1,3 and 4 at least– I heart TOH!) Sorry no source for 2, image 5 BHG image 6 Houzz.- I got them off of my Pinterest boards since they had sources)
We drew up some plans and sketches of the space. It was important to me that the staircase matched the living room, but that they didn’t compete. Also like I said before I wanted the entry to be it’s own space or a different “room” if you will, so I chose not to add the wainscoting to the walls, but I did carry the base molding through. We were also planning on adding the same door molding treatment and crown molding to the entry (but ran out of time).
**TIP: One of the best ways to figure out what you can do with a space very quickly (even for the artistically challenged) is to take a picture of the space and sketch out different alternatives over the image. Here was one of my first goes at sketching out the plan.
Then because my husband is an over achiever, we drew it up in 3d and rendered the image. It looked exactly like I wanted, and you could see how much bigger the space was. (this picture was not only figuring out the stair layout but how the arch and columns we added in would look)
So this monster of a project all started while my husband was away at work… (BAD WIFE!) The stair carpet was crappy to say the least, and I really wanted my staircase to be amazing. So I peeled a corner of one of the steps away to see what was there… and tucked it back in before he got home. Then of course I told him about it, and showed him what I did… I’m not that sneaky! Obviously the project was just a little more than finishing a beautifully built stair, cuz out staircase was a mess!
Luckily my husband wasn’t too mad about my little carpet escapade and let me rip off the rest of the carpet. We had very little, if any budget for this project so we tried to work with what was existing, and for the most part we did.
The stair runners were just structural 2 x 12’s in case you were wondering. and they were covered with plaster splatters from our much hated wall texture. But we didn’t clean it off right away because of the mess it would have caused. SO instead, we (meaning mostly Justin) started removing the hand railing, which we kept intact so that we could replace them after we made the changes.
**TIP: Reusing anything that is in decent shape is always a big money saver- however, it is not always a time saver, so you need to weigh out your options and plan accordingly. (In this case it was both money and time saving, because we took the railing out in 2 large chunks, using mostly our reciprocating saw, and all we had to do to replace them was cut them to size.… just saying!)
So, after we had opened up the space by moving the soon to be (ha, ha… two years later) new newel posts back 2 feet. We went about expanding the bottom two stairs to wrap around the soon to be newel posts. So this was the first purchase for this project. I think it was around $50 to get 2 – 8’ 2 x 12’s. For the actual structure of the bottom stairs we reused any 2×4’s and 2×6’s that we already head.
When he installed the new bottom two stairs, he also routed the front edges of the 2×12 on the top and bottom, so that the nose of the stair tread had a more pleasing and looked more finished and less like a 2×12! Then Justin took the time to carefully pry off each glued and nailed stair tread and stand it outdoors and route the front edges. Then he re-glued(construction adhesive) and nailed or screwed them back in place.
One of the issues we found when we were replacing the stair treads was a big gap on the both sides of the tread (up against the wall). We didn’t want to cover the gap with strange moldings, because inevitably that would look a little hokey in my opinion. So we thought about our choices and we used our experience with adding a wall stringer after the fact, to the first staircase in our first house (part 1, part 2 and part 3) to fill the gaps.
The stair tread covered the seams on the wall stringer and there were no big gaps on the side anymore! Yay!
Okay so they pretty much stayed like this for two years, while I had babies and we dealt with life… Remodeling, may be our hobby, but we still have to live.
We were waiting on the color of stain choice. We didn’t know what color our floors were going to be, so we couldn’t match it to the stairs. Instead we just waited, after a while we got most of the living room done including purchasing and installing our new flooring. But after having the living room floor done and a second beautiful daughter born (and the use of my body back- thank heaven for a working body!) I got sick of the crappy looking stairs, and decided to go ahead and start the finishing process.
And this time while my husband was away at work something exciting happened… the stairs got stained! p.s. he didn’t even notice!!!! (Bad Husband!-What do I do projects for when you are away at work?… Basically to get a big bunch of praise when your home – my love language apparently!)
At the same time we finished the two landings. (I left the 5 upper stairs carpet, and while it may seem strange it was the easiest place to stop the wood since our family room upstairs had carpeting. It wasn’t visible from down stairs…
Next we cut out new stair risers, painted them white, added polyurethane and glued them in place with construction adhesive (to avoid patching and sanding holes since they were already painted and sealed.
We also wrapped up the side of the stairs which were on hold because of the living room design from forever ago. This project of the living room, stairs and kitchen was so much like a life sized 3-d puzzle, figuring it out as you go. Vanna show it off, oh my goodness, Etta was so little… Sweet Girl!
Finally having a newel post might have had me dancing and praising the heavens!
Justin installed the railings again, which I don’t think I actually photographed the process of- it was that fast, he just cut it to fit and nailed it back in place! But here are some more shots of the after:
The biggest change associated with the hand railing was wrapping it the unfinished arch. It looked really beautiful when it was done. Especially after I painted it black.
We made this little child’s gate from a sheet of vinyl trellis wrapped with a few moldings on the top and bottom. We used it the whole time we lived there, it was a great idea, and is REALLY nice for long spans for cheap. (great for little dogs)
Okay, I showed you what changes were happening in the entry so all I have left is to show you the final images of the stairs and entry, but this post is getting so long that I will show you all the finals tomorrow! If you want to see the whole stair process you just need to check out the stairs tag!

Time for Oktoberfest and all the traditional harvest-time celebrations. Making my weekly foray into the fragrant vale at framers market to pick up special supplies for company, it occurred to me that I could fill a veritable cornucopia just using the letter "P":
Small compact pumpkins, sweet red peppers, Asian pears, pecans and pomegranates are my traditional favorites, and there they were.
Soon to come are Fuyu and Hachiya persimmons and pistachios.
McCall’s gigantic "alligator pears" (avocados) will ripen over time, but will meantime grace my table, alongside Eufloria’s purple roses.
Maria Wright always has interesting exotics, and I got some patula, an oversized Filipino okra fresh for salad or stir fry. Her Santa Rosa plums won me over, also!
Then I followed the unmistakable fragrance of passion fruit to the next stand, and stood there awestruck.
Last week Jamba Juice in Fresno had posted a sign that they had discontinued using the latter as an ingredient due to the ruined crop in the tropics. Yet here they were "in the flesh" in Cambria. (Marcus Tribelhorn sells the unique fruit grown in Cayucos, and promised us three recipes.)
Meanwhile, I took mine home and infused the fleshy seeds in simple syrup for a variety of uses; the flavor is so pervasive, a little will go a long way.
For our Oktoberfest entrée, what else but pork? Today’s nicely trimmed lean meat makes fine choices.
Flemish Pork Chops
2 large apples, peeled and cored
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tblsp. granulated sugar
4 tblsp. butter or Smart Balance, divided
4 THICK BONELESS PORK LOIN CHOPS
SALT AND PEPPER
Unbleached flour (browns better)
Slice apples thickly; toss with lemon juice and sugar, and set aside. Dredge chops in seasoned flour tossed in a brown paper sack, shaking off the excess. Melt two tblsp. butter in an ovenproof skillet; turn heat to medium high and brown the chops about five minutes on each side. Remove from pan; add the other two tablespoons butter and quickly sauté the apples.
Return the chops to the pan and top with the apples. Finish cooking loosely tented with foil in a preheated 350 degree oven for 15-20 minutes. Serve with boiled new potatoes, of course.
Betty Swierk makes this outstanding Herbed Pork Tenderloin in Wine Sauce. Use two pork tenderloins in a package from Costco or your local market, following package directions for the time. Mix herbes de Provence, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, according to your taste.
Roll the meat in the mix, coating it thickly. Brown all sides in a little canola or peanut oil in a large Dutch oven (Betty’s is Le Creuset.)
Cover and cook on the stovetop or place in a 350-degree oven until just done. Remove meat from the pan, loosely tent with foil, and set aside. Pour the drippings into a container, skim off the grease, and replace the meat juices in the Dutch oven.
Add one cup of Chardonnay, one tablespoon ketchup, two tablespoons chicken boullion, some finely chopped thyme and oregano to equal one teaspoon; bring to a boil with one and one-half cups water. Thicken with a medium slurry of cornstarch dissolved in water, and serve over sliced pork. (If you like the sauce a little sweeter, add a packet of Splenda or use a different wine.)

I grew up in a rural area outside of Gig Harbor, Washington called Vaughn. My family had seven and a half acres which seamed like a vast wilderness at the time. We didn’t have many neighbors and it took twenty minutes to get to high school. Thirty minutes to town. I still live in a small cabin on the property hoping to build my own dream log home on an acre and a half that I own near by. The area is mostly middle class working families but the social spectrum is running more and more to the comfortable side. Gig Harbor has attracted a lot of money over the years especially to water front properties. There are two local high schools with popular sports programs. People work hard and enjoy the quality of living in the Gig Harbor area.
As a young person, did you have a “big dream” as an aspiring model…. If so, what type of modeling?
My aspiring dreams as a young person were to play in the NFL or go to the Olympics. I also dreamt about fishing and hiking in exotic and wild places.
I never had a “big dream” as an aspiring model. I pursued it based on the support and encouragement I received from family and friends that I could be successful at it. The industry sounded fun and exciting and I had the confidence to give it a try and be successful. The chance to get to participate in active and athletic photo shoots, meet new people and stay motivated to stay in shape was too much to argue with.
At what age/time did you first make an attempt in pursuing a career in the modeling industry? How encouraging or discouraging was the modeling industry when you first pursued it?
I graduated from the University of Idaho in the spring of 2001 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business and majored in Marketing. I attended under a full athletic scholarship to play football. I played wide receiver, kicker and punter. I first made an attempt at a modeling career in the fall of 2001. I was 23 years old. I visited Sports Unlimited from a referral in Seattle and have been working consistently ever since. I would say that the modeling industry was very encouraging. I started booking good jobs right away.
I have been a model for ten years.
Do you have a success story that you can share about your achievements in your modeling career? Describe in detail your major accomplishments…
I am fortunate enough to have many highlights in my career. I was lucky enough to participate in a national commercial for Merrill shoes. I was paid to trail run all day. That’s one great thing about fitness modeling. You get paid to work out sometimes. I have also worked for Under Armor, Adidas, and Hammer Strength by Life Fitness. As well, I have been the poster boy for a national Nike campaign at Champ Sports.
I was the body for Nike Pro Compression for two years and participated in there Global sales meetings for four years. I have rappelled from the rafters of the Oregon Convention Center onto the runway for a Columbia Sportswear fashion show. I have worked for REI on a couple occasions and got to visit North Carolina with them. I shot a poster for New Balance which sits in 24hour fitness gyms all over. I have been on a Macy’s shopping bag and also did a runway show for Tommy Hilfiger. I’ve been lucky enough to work for a wide variety of companies. My experiences have been great with all of them.
If you could give advice to an individual who aspires to have a career in the modeling industry, what would you say?
Be realistic in what image you represent. Stay in shape, be well groomed, be polite and courteous, be punctual, be a great navigator, and be confident and relaxed as possible, patient and determined. Don’t take anything personal, have thick skin. You will not book them all. | <urn:uuid:8f48ece0-a48d-4723-b215-a76b494e40af> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.sluagency.com/blog/seattle-sports-model-jesse-taylor-talks-shop/ | 2019-07-20T22:00:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195526714.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20190720214645-20190721000645-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.980207 | 800 |
It’s not timing the market – It’s time ‘in’ the market
Global stock-markets are currently extremely volatile. Craig Welsh tells you what you can do if you have savings or investments?
The volatility seen in recent months in global stock-markets has prompted many headlines. The credit problems emanating from the US housing market slump, and recessionary fears, have had an impact on the value of shares on all market indices. So if you have savings or investments, it is only natural to have some concerns – so what do you do?
Well, every market cycle can experience periods of volatility, with both up and down days. Often, a few very good days account for a large part of the total return. Staying the course ensures that investments will be ‘in’ the market on the good days. It can be tempting to try to time market movements by selling stocks / funds when you think the market is about to decline and by buying stocks / funds when it appears the market is about to rise.
Resist being a market timer! Very, very few people, including many professionals, are successful. By trying to time the market, you will potentially (and most probably will) miss out on market rallies that could substantially improve your overall return and long-term wealth. What is most important is not timing the market, but rather time IN the market. Staying the course can prove very rewarding in the long run. Consistently predicting which days will move in which direction, though, is virtually impossible and can ultimately be very costly.
Missing only a few of the best days over the last few years would have had an adverse effect on total return. For example; a hypothetical USD 10,000 initial investment in the S&P 500 Index held over the entire period of 1 January 1997 through 31 December 2006 would have grown to USD 22,446. Missing just the five best days would have reduced the ending value to USD 17,357.
To put it another way, from 1992-2007 the UK FTSE All-share returned an average annual return of 9.84 percent. Had you missed only the best 10 days of market rallies, your annual return would have been 6.89 percent, or only 2.78 percent had you not been invested in the best 30 days over the period. (Source: Fidelity International)
So resist trying to time the markets. Set clear objectives, be mindful of how long you want to invest for and ensure you have a well-diversified portfolio. Understand exactly the risk involved, and, very importantly – have regular reviews.
Is now a good time to start investing?
Many people do see opportunities when markets are more volatile, and like in any line of business, buying low and selling higher is fundamental to success. However it really depends on your own circumstances.
- Establish what your financial planning needs are and set some objectives. Where are you now and where would you like to be in the future? Are there other areas which require attention first? Investment is about making your money work harder for you, so think about what sort of returns you are expecting.
- Be clear about your time horizon. For example when do you plan to use the money? If you have a medium – long-term view (5 – 10 years) then it really does make sense to consider investing.
- Be clear about your attitude to risk. The relationship between risk and reward means that greater long-term returns are often delivered through investments that involve a higher degree of short-term risk. Hence the length of time you have is crucial.
For expats, or people in the international community, managing finances can be difficult and time-consuming. Add to that the various tax, pension and currency implications of moving countries and it can become a real headache.
Proper planning is vital and on-going assistance and advice from a properly licensed adviser, with particular focus on expatriates, can prove invaluable.
Please note that past performance is no guide to future performance and that you should take professional independent advice before investing. | <urn:uuid:ba6087d6-741b-4567-993a-c6421f4f3781> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.spectrum-ifa.com/timing-market-time-market/ | 2019-07-20T23:02:48Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195526714.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20190720214645-20190721000645-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.966185 | 837 |

As Barack Obama became the first African American elected U.S. president on November 4, there was another history-making event involving the deaf and hard of hearing. National Public Radio in Washington hosted an election night party for the hard of hearing. They tested new technology that might one day provide nearly instantaneous captioning of radio broadcasts for those who can not listen. Paul Sisco reports.
A select group of hard of hearing people got their news from new radio technology on election night in the U.S..
An estimated 28 million Americans have difficulty hearing. Their troubles range from a small percentage who hear almost nothing to many who have developed hearing problems.
Advocates say most of those people could benefit from the new technology introduced in the studios of National Public Radio or NPR.
"They simply have no means of assessing what is on radio broadcasting," Senior engineer Jan Philip Andrews said. "Tonight we're presenting them an opportunity to hear radio by reading text."
Digital technology makes it all possible.
'From N.P.R. (National Public Radio) news this is live coverage of election night 2008...'
Invited guests watched captioned radio programming transmitted live on the radio band to specially equipped radio receivers that display the text on monitors and laptop computers.
The guests, like Cheryl Heffner, evaluated the technique for researchers. "I love it," she said. "It is so exciting. I can't wait to be able to use it."
Guests were also shown technology being developed for deaf passengers in cars. This is what a driver might see on the radio monitor. On that same monitor a deaf passenger could read the radio captioning.
The technology and captioning software is being developed at National Public Radio labs in Washington DC. It is directed by Michael Starling.
"NPR labs is in fact America's only not for profit broadcast lab for radio technology, and was really premised on the idea that with digital transmission there's now so many new things so many new public services we can do that will freshen radio and bring it into the 21st century," Starling said.
NPR's mission, through its 800 radio stations is to blanket the U.S. with news and cultural programming.
"Increasingly we've been asking ourselves if full national coverage mean more than just the signal reach. You know, aren't there some barriers here that perhaps people who have never had access to radio before that we can break down?" Starling asked.
Work continues at NPR Labs to improve and demonstrate that the technology exists to reach millions of deaf and hard of hearing citizens with radio captioning. The goal now is bring costs down and convince manufactures there is a lively market for it. | <urn:uuid:c242595d-c7a1-4a63-9a20-edddaf55ad25> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.voanews.com/archive/deaf-get-election-news-radio-election-night-party | 2019-07-20T23:08:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195526714.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20190720214645-20190721000645-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.971521 | 553 |
That’s right! The third book in the Jakken Trilogy, The Libel of Blood, is complete! Let the kingdom rejoice! I am now just waiting on cover art before I submit it for publication.
In celebration of this momentous occasion, here is a (rather lengthy) excerpt of a scene from near the end of the novel! Most of the spoilers are edited out, so it might be a little choppy and confusing, but here’s a teaser of what’s coming!
The fighter shuttle moved very quickly. Without the spirits – or whatever they were – of the Xiallanen Passage, I would have had no hope of surviving my mad flight. As I sped forward, the woman’s voice over the intercom had been replaced by a man’s deep one; presumably “Lieutenant Charmandrius.” I ignored him completely, zooming away in the direction opposite the rest of the strikecraft, away from Banditry’s fleet and towards Horrere’s. You will not have died for nothing, Derekk. I rounded the curvature of the Earth very quickly, in fifteen or so minutes, and the main bulk of Horrere’s fleet came into view. There looked to be about thirty larger enemy vessels of various designs, surrounded by countless smaller fighter craft. Opposing them I counted twenty or so human battleships, all with the same thick, long, dull silver chassis, but with differing weapon placements, their cannons and guns constantly discharging energy weapon bursts forward at the attackers.
Very few of the bursts hit home. Most were stopped by some kind of invisible shield in front of the main Horrere vessels, and those that weren’t seemed to have little effect. Horrere’s ships were hideous to look at, as their outsides pulsed sickeningly, as if their entire body was a single, massive heart. They were fleshy, ship-shaped masses often fronted by clusters of tentacles – that usually had eyes dotting their sides. Their pale flesh both breathed and pulsed a foul cadence, and even despite my resolve, I felt a primal horror and revulsion at the sight of them.
Their weapons were varied. Some form of green liquid – acid, I presumed – was sprayed from external organs in the direction of our fleet, and as it dispersed over space, managed to spread into a very wide net, hitting many of the Earth vessels, slowly eating away at their hulls. As I sped towards the Horrere fleet, never slowing down, an Earth vessel near me finally had its hull breached by the green matter, and I watched in dismay as a hole appeared in its hull and grew exponentially wider, as people and objects were sucked out into the cold darkness of space. I gripped the wheel of my own vessel harder and tried to get it to move faster.
My hands jerked suddenly and I found myself turning the ship very hard to the left. I glanced back at where I had been a moment later, and saw that a concentrated burst of that acid had hit the spot I had been a moment before. A short distance from it was a squid-like thing, with eyes all around its conical body and an acid-spitting organ at the tip of said cone. It was aiming its weapon at me, and my body moved the ship to turn around and face it. My fingers moved up on the wheel, and I found them resting on triggers. I depressed the triggers, and two short bursts of energy beams came out from two points at the front of the vessel, meeting at the center of the Horrere squid’s body. A red mist began to spew out of the thing, and I noticed that a crosshair had appeared on the windshield before me. I fired again, aiming the crosshair lower down this time, guided gently by the pilots who were with me. Four short bursts of fire later the squid-ship had been cut in two. A moment after that, it ceased writhing and was still.
Nice shooting, said a voice in my head. I jumped.
I wouldn’t have thought of putting it there. There was a definite note of approval in the voice. As my body turned the ship around and sped off towards the larger Horrere vessels, I felt a second distinct presence in my mind, though remained silent.
I glanced at the Human fleet, and saw a group of the squid-like fighter vessels spewing a black liquid from their weapon-organs that coated the windshields of the Human vessels before doing the same to the rest of the hull. Human strikecraft similar to my own began to fire at the squids, and were met with return fire.
The voice began to speak again. Now, back to you. Fighter vessels are tricky craft – haven’t flown one since shortly after my Academy days in Cairo. The larger ships are less temperamental.
“Okay then. So what am I supposed to do?”
Beats me. I just need to help you.
Something solid sped by my ship, and I executed a perfect barrel roll to avoid it. “What was that?”
Bone projectile, responded a female voice in the back of my head. Horrere’s ships frequently have the ability to produce excess bone and then shoot it out of specially designed external organs.
I rocketed up and to the right as I saw a small squadron of Horrere squid-vessels approaching. Eight of them, it looked like, as well as a small kuvuthus being prodded by what looked to be two vessels made entirely of bone, in the shape of a canine skull. From their closed mouths protruded flexible tentacles that jabbed the kuvuthus at specific points, causing it to squirm and thrash about angrily as its wounds sparked briefly.
I found myself then turning back towards them, entirely against me will. “What are you two doing?” I demanded. “I need to find the Genesis Engine!”
First we free the poor little thing, the female voice said, her sympathy for the space kraken throwing me off. It was kind of cute, I supposed; it was hardly twice the size of my tiny fighter. It’s only a baby! The fightercraft will be easy to remove – just fire a burst down their weapon-system gullets and they’ll go down in a moment. The bonecraft may be harder, but they’re unarmed except for their lightning.
Well, I tried to get you away, the male said apologetically.
I sighed. “Well, I suppose I can’t really die yet.” The weavers were not going to be happy with me.
I dove towards the small squadron, and they noticed me quickly. Four of the squidships turned to aim at me, but under the female’s guidance I fired bursts down the weapon-holes of three of them. They each exploded in a burst of purple-blue mist. The fourth squidship fired a burst of black liquid at me, and it struck my windshield, blocking out about a third of it from my view.
I turned the ship so that my blindspot no longer blocked any of the views of the ships, and moved the crosshair to fire a burst down the weapon of the offending ship. It exploded like the others.
The remaining squidships slowly began to turn towards me, but I took out two of them before they could take aim, slicing them in half. The next exploded before it could fire after a shot went down its weapon, and the last got a weaponful of laserfire as it spewed acid at me. The male jerked my ship up and I managed to avoid the spray as the squid exploded.
The kuvuthus and its handlers had made good use of my distraction and had moved on. I turned and zoomed towards them, firing at the nearest boneship. My weapons had little visible effect.
The eyes, the female said. I found myself suddenly moving in a circle around the trio, until I was in front of them. My hands moved and I shot a burst of energy beams that hit one of the ships between the eyes. Oops. Bad shot.
I took over myself then, and hit it in its right eye. When nothing happened, I fired again, and the boneship’s hull began to crack before shattering open, revealing a fleshy interior mass that began to dissolve and boil away before my eyes.
Then the kuvuthus moved. Its tentacle lashed out at me, and I moved to dodge. Unfortunately, the kuvuthus was quick, and its attack still glanced us, sending me spinning out of control. The male pilot’s soul quickly regained control of the ship, and then used me to send a short burst of laser fire at the second ship’s eye. It shattered and dissolved like the previous one. The kuvuthus turned slowly to look at me and then shrieked, in that ear-shattering and mind-numbing manner characteristic of its species, before zooming off towards the Horrere fleet. Once the screaming roar left my head, I turned to watch it. I laughed out loud when I saw the kuvuthus head towards a fellow captive spce kraken, and then destroy the boneships guiding it, freeing its companion. The two then moved on.
They’ll fight for you now, the female pilot’s soul said. Kuvuthus are rather vengeful creatures.
“Right,” I said. I took a deep breath. “Genesis Engine. We need to find it. It should be behind the bulk of the main fleet.”
And so into the heart of the enemy we go, the male said. This will be a fun ride.
“Are you ready?” I asked my mental companions.
Ready, the male replied.
Let’s go, the female said.
I moved the accelerator stick to maximum, turned to face the center of the Horrere fleet, and then depressed the foot pedal.
This is for you, Derekk.
It took only five minutes for Horrere to notice me. My little excursion now over, I was able to turn my full attention to the battle before me. A quick glance confirmed my fears; it was really not going well.
The battle against Horrere covered about a third of the planet’s circumference, and presumably Banditry’s attack took the opposite third, with the last third being noncontested space between the two. On this side of the Earth, with the sun shining in our eyes from behind Horrere’s fleet, the larger battlevessels numbered now about fifteen. The wreckage of five or so defeated Human ships were falling into Earth’s orbit, one of the wrecks passing out of sight behind the planet’s curve, destined to eventually disintegrate in the atmosphere and then rain fiery pieces down upon the Earth. I hope everyone’s staying inside.
Behind the line of Earth vessels – which were spread in a roughly circular shape, from three ships near the South Pole to five or six about the Equator to two more at the North Pole – were civilian and military satellites. Many of these looked badly damaged, and several were sparking. One exploded in a shower of green fireballs as I watched, forcing a team of small Earth fighters nearby to scramble and flee.
Surprisingly, Earth’s own defensive satellites were small in number; no one had ever anticipated that there would ever be an attack on the planet itself. After all, who was there to attack it? Half a dozen orbital weapon arrays were still visible and active in my field of vision; large platforms with three or four large cannons each, each gun normally capable of taking out an enemy vessel in a couple of well-aimed shots, surrounded by missile and torpedo launchers for long-ranged heavy strikes. Most of the projectile weapons had been depleted, it seemed, and the energy cannons were ineffectual. Two or three heavily damaged platforms were falling into lower orbits behind their more active cousins.
Behind the battle line, there was a nearly constant stream of smaller vessels coming up from Earth, and another one of ships going back down to it. A larger battlecruiser became visible as I sped towards my destination, joining the other Earth defenders with a hail of gunfire. Most of the smaller vessels looked to be shuttles, probably evacuating civilian stations in space and perhaps bringing up military personnel.
The larger battlevessels remained relatively stationary, using their large cannons to constantly bombard the slowly advancing Horrere fleet and acting as command hubs for fleets of strikecraft. Surrounding the larger ships was what looked to be a swarm of flies; both Earth and Horrere fighting craft circled and zoomed about the larger vessels, trying to take them out.
The real battle is not between the larger craft, the male’s voice said in my head. The true heroes are the fighter pilots; they both protect their own larger craft from bombers and other fighters, but also are the ones who take out enemy defenses and allow the large guns to finally get through.
Aye. The large ships are mostly ineffective; the only thing that really matters about them is their carrying capacity and communications equipment, the female added.
From my vantage point in the sky, I could see that the color of the planet had changed; in addition to the green, blue, and white one normally saw, I was also greeted with a purple and yellow tinge above it all. The planet seeder apparently really had begun its work.
I sent my eyes over to the the nightmare fleet of Horrere, and behind the frontal spread of thirty or so ships – all made of hideously pulsating flesh, tentacles, bone, eyes, claws, and other organs – I saw what could have been nothing else but the surviving planet seeder. It resembled an enormous mola mola, the extinct sunfish of Earth, with an enormous hemispherical central body, four flippers spaced evenly about its rear portion (though the ancient mola mola had only two), and a gently oscillating fin in the very back. Where its mouth should have been was a long tube, easily half the length of the thing’s body – which itself was the size of a dozen or so large battlevessels – that pulsed and quivered ominously. Feline eyes were scattered about the whole thing’s pale flesh, and it was surrounded by purple-blue mist – presumably blood – with several open wounds emitting more of that mist into the space surrounding it.
The enemy fleet itself was spread out in a way that mirrored the Earth fleet’s own defensive spread, but with about one and a half times the number of ships at each position. They moved forward very slowly, firing bone projectiles and various bodily fluids at the Human ships. Their weapons seemed to be doing more damage than their Human counterparts’.
Between the two fleets was an area completely devoid of any vessels whatsoever, and filled instead with lasers, energy bursts, missiles, projectiles, and acid streams.
Dead man’s land, the male said quietly, noticing my attention. It’s too dangerous for larger vessels to use their truly fast engines – like the Ethyrdrive – near a planet’s surface because of their size and lack of control. Smaller vessels, like this one, require less power to move faster, and so don’t need Ethyrdrives to move at speeds to make the enormous distances involved in space battles less extreme.
Of course, fighter pilots need to have astonishing reflexes, and are usually enhanced by drugs and sometimes genetic interference and selection, not to mention computer assistance, in order to survive even a few moments operating at those speeds… but not even they could survive in the area between two fighting fleets. I saw setups like this on New Dominica and Eden during the height of their rebellions; two fleets of large vessels slowly advancing towards each other, and constantly peppering the other with weaponfire that inevitably bounces off of their opponent’s energy shields. They keep up the constant fire, and wait until their allied fighter craft get to the enemy fleet and begin their work, taking out key structures to weaken the shields and other defenses. The large ships just keep up their fire, waiting for the moment when the enemy’s shields are broken by their fleets – and then use even bigger guns, taking out the enemy’s now-defenseless larger ships, destroying the command hub and rearming and fuelling stations of the fighter craft.
Of course, this constant mutual bombardment creates an area in between the two fleets that no ship can survive in, as it is constantly filled with energy and missile weapon fire. Any vessel that flies in there is dead. So, instead fighter pilots go around on the flanks, avoiding most of this central fire. Indeed, I saw fighter vessels travelling above, below, and to the sides of this central “dead man’s land,” either heading to attack the enemy fleet or going back to their own to restock their supplies. My own vessel was currently zooming along the left side of the battle.
The same is true of Juxtani warfare – there’s quite a disconnect between the heroic stories of space battles and the reality. There was a moment of silence in my mind. So where are we going? the female asked.
“Behind the fleet,” I responded. “That’s where the Engine is.”
The Engine will be heavily guarded, she warned.
“I know. I’ll worry about that later. For now, we just need to get behind the fleet.”
So then why are we headed towards the center of Horrere’s fleet? the male asked mildly.
I considered for a moment. I had aimed the shuttle at the heart of the enemy fleet and then floored the accelerator. I was currently on the left side of dead man’s land, but my current path would cause me to cross a small portion of it.
I felt my arms move and begin to steer the ship away. We won’t survive going in there, the female said.
“But we will,” I said calmly, using all of my force of mind to wrench the controls back towards my original goal. “Trust me.”
I sensed great hesitance and releuctance from the pair of them. But there’s no way-
“Trust me!” I repeated. I closed my eyes and thought an apology to the weavers of fate, but I had to do this; to end the conflict as quickly as possible. I would survive. And I would prevail.
I plunged into the dead man’s land a few moments later, my companions going silent. “Help me,” I hissed at them. “I’m going to need your guidance to get through this. We can’t be hit.”
I felt the male take control of my arms and legs and I felt the female’s keen senses merge with mine. We three became one.
The next few minutes were a blur. My body was completely in tune with my surroundings, and my mind was calm, despite having been merged with two others. The area of dead man’s land that I had to cross was rather small, but that did not make the task any easier. The moment I entered the field of fire, acid, and bone, I acted entirely on instinct. An internal compass told me what general direction I needed to head in, and the rest of me was devoted to staying alive and getting me and my fighter to that destination in one piece.
Both an instant and an eternity passed as I soared through the dead man’s land, flipping, rolling, corkscrewing, strafing, diving, zooming, accelerating, decelerating, curving, spiraling, and every other maneouvering possible, evading everything that came at me. I curved around sprays of acid and zoomed about projectiles of bone and torpedoes, while energy beams couldn’t touch me.
We were invincible. I felt the thrill and exhilaration from my companions as well, and in all likelihood I broke into a mad laugh in the middle of it all – until I saw an Earth missile curving towards us, little red lights blinking on its tip.
As I curved down to avoid it, it followed me, and soon the three of us had not only to avoid coming to an early end at the hands of various long range weaponry, but also had to stay ahead of a killer missile bent on our destruction.
Then we slipped up. A stray energy beam – or perhaps an exceedingly well-aimed one – struck somewhere below me. The smell of smoke filled the cockpit, and I began to cough and lose control as my body convulsed. The ship spun wildly, spiraling along its current trajectory – and out of the dead man’s land.
As the shuttle’s self-repair systems fixed up the problem, I managed to regain control of myself – both mind and body. The three of us were again separate, and we were out of dead man’s land. I glanced at a rearview monitor and saw the missile still chasing us. Instinctively – or guided perhaps by my companions – I dove down and quickly darted beneath the hull of the nearest Horrere vessel, which resembled a sickening giant squid. The missile tried to follow, but could not turn sharply enough, instead hitting the Horrere ship itself – to little effect, unfortunately.
I found myself, then, at the front and center of the Horrere fleet – the only one of my kind. The fighting between strikecraft and the larger Horrere vessels was happening only on the edges of the Horrere fleet at the moment; the center was relatively peaceful, completely devoid of fighting.
Which made me the only target. From the fleshy hulls of the Lovecraftian vessels around me sprang Horrere strikecraft, emerging almost like pseudopods and then detaching from their host vessels – all heading straight towards me.
I set the acceleration to maximum and floored it out of there. Fortunately, my ship seemed to be faster than theirs. I soared over a very large imprisoned kuvuthus, between two vessels that looked like nothing more than a mass of smoke, tentacles, and toothy maws, and then narrowly avoided hitting what looked like a giant crab with the tail of a fish. One claw lazily reached out to snap at me, but I easily avoided it.
And then I was clear of it. The strikecraft chasing us are newly spawned, the female said. They are still learning, but they will catch up if we don’t keep up our speed. We must hurry.
I glanced back at one of the rear monitors and saw the tail of the crab-ship I had just passed stiffen. The ships in front of it shifted to the side, and a moment later something long, blue, and glowing came from what must have been its mouth. I watched in horror as it shot across dead man’s land and impacted the central Human vessel opposite it. The blue – presumably laser – beam moved down the length of the ship, and cut itself off abruptly once it reached the end. The Earth ship split in two and began to fall down into orbit, impacting another ship on the way.
Stay focused, the male urged. I saw then that the Horrere strikecraft – the hideous mini-squid things – were still following me. Fortunately, my other minds had kept me going at maximum speed, but my enemies were gaining.
Right before I turned my attention back to what was before me, I noticed a small team of unhampered kuvuthus soaring along the edges of the Horrere fleet, taking out enemy strikecraft and assaulting the smaller vessels. Good for them, the female thought approvingly.
I then realized that I had a larger problem before me: the planet seeder. Wounded as it was, its massive bulk still blocked the path in front of me.
I immediately began to swerve around the giant space sunfish ship, and it turned its mouth to face me. Its skin began to quiver and tremble, and I saw smaller strikecraft emerging from it.
Hit it in the mouth with one of your ship destroyers, the female urged.
“I only have four!” I said back. “I don’t think one missile, no matter how powerful, will damage that giant!” The strikecraft from it began to move closer.
If you don’t take it out, its strikecraft will take us out, the female pilot responded. The spawning vessel acts as a hivemind; the strikecraft it spawns are controlled by a secondary – or actually, tertiary – brain inside the master vessel.
“Wait… so their ships actually are alive?”
And intelligent. Some of them sentient, too; they’re either beasts of war or esteemed generals who implanted their minds into a massive ship body. Members of the Horrere Warlord caste.
The thought sickened me. “Okay… living ship. And a shot to the mouth will do what?”
We don’t have time for this, came the male’s voice, and I found myself diving down towards the oncoming strikecraft and the planet seeder’s mouth very much against my will. It opened its mouth wide and belched out a mist of green gas; either acid or some other harmful chemical substance.
Now! the female shrieked in my mind, and after allowing myself to wince, I let the male guide my hand to the proper trigger – below those for the energy guns – and let loose one of the destroyers. On the windshield, the crosshairs – a larger one than before – turned red and flashed. The missile – a beautiful, sleek, white, shark-like thing – shot out of its cradle, zooming through the crowd of enemy strikecraft before they could destroy it. The planet seeder began to spawn more craft around its mouth, but it was too late. The missile soared inside the mouth, and it closed its mouth a moment later. It shuddered faintly once, and then its eyes closed.
The strikecraft kept coming.
“Was that it?” I yelled. The squids’ weaponholes were opening. “Now we’re dead!”
Wait for it, crooned the female.
Two seconds later, the planet seeder shuddered violently, and then its skin was on fire. The strikecraft all began to veer and wheel about wildly, tentacles flailing and eyes dilating as the massive mola mola vessel burned.
Fire in space is a funny thing. There’s no oxygen for it to feed on, so they last for much less time than a fire on a planetary surface would. Nonetheless, it was an impressive sight. The entire ship began to glow, and then simultaneously across its surface, an intense blue flame flared up, and then was gone again just as quickly, leaving behind a rapidly shrinking fire of red, orange, and yellow amid charred remnants of bone.
I steered us out of the now lifeless sea of strikecraft. “What happened?”
You fired a missile into its internal systems, the female said. We got inside its shield, and then managed to penetrate the thing itself. Only the outside is protected; the inside is remarkably vulnerable. It doesn’t need to be a weak point; I think it’s just a vanity. But inside there’s flesh and artificial atmosphere to burn, and in the thing’s chemical gas-producing tracts, the atmosphere burns fast. So, once the missile exploded, it burned from the inside out, and died, killing of its little dependents.
“Okay, so now that that’s taken care of – onto the Genesis Engine.” I looked behind me to see the enemy squidcraft from before still gaining rapidly. “And away from them.” | <urn:uuid:d1a946cb-fb6a-4c7b-8ecd-0c10c58ce3a5> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://zmwilmot.com/2012/01/08/the-libel-of-blood-is-finished/ | 2019-07-20T22:01:50Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195526714.15/warc/CC-MAIN-20190720214645-20190721000645-00398.warc.gz | en | 0.975379 | 5,940 |

About South West Water
[[Image:St_Austell_sponsor_sww_02.jpg|thumb|left|300px|alt=Photo courtesy of SWW| photo courtesy of South West Water]]South West Water provides water and sewerage services to 1.6 million across Devon, Cornwall and parts of Somerset and Dorset.
Around 364 million litres of water are supplied daily to homes and businesses along a 9,300 mile long network of pipes while 247 million litres of waste water are treated and returned to the environment via 5,600 miles of sewers from over 600 treatment works. The company, part of the British-owned Pennon Group, employs 1,300 staff generating a turnover of nearly £400 million. Over the last two decades, South West Water has invested £2 billion in its Clean Sweep programme to improve the quality of the region’s 144 bathing waters.
[[Image:St_Austell_sponsor_sww_03.jpg|thumb|right|300px|alt=Photo courtesy of SWW| photo courtesy of South West Water]]Now the South West has the most Blue Flag beaches of any region in the UK and boasts bathing water quality which matches or exceeds that of Europe’s leading holiday destinations.
Drinking water quality is now at an all-time high and the company’s record on tackling leakage is the best in the water industry based on number of litres lost per kilometre of pipe. Since 1996, the region has enjoyed 12 consecutive summers without any form of water restrictions and South West Water has recently acquired two new reservoirs – Park and Stannon on Bodmin Moor – to safeguard Cornwall’s water supplies for decade to come.

IYSWIM is a retroactive blog about music led by artist and designer Andy Royston, who has had more than his fair share of music adventures in a long career in the UK and the United States of America.

As of September 2010, Luxe & Lucid is one-year-old. And what a year it’s been!
To celebrate, I’m recapping some of my favorite posting moments and sending a shout-out to
all those who’ve tuned in during my inaugural year online. Life in the blogoshpere has been an
unexpected joy and labor of love (with equal emphasis on "labor" and "love"). Stay tuned for
more interiors, more fashion and more adventures in year two. Anything could happen!
– SEPTEMBER 28, 2009 –
My first post is still one of my favorites. And my love affair with gold is still going strong.
– NOVEMBER 6, 2009 –
It’s pretty exciting to see one of my interiors make the rounds on the internet. This photo from
last year showed up on dozens of sites and seemed to incite a “mirror-on-mirror” craze.
And I couldn’t get enough of the comments like those below …
"That Tricia Huntley Venetian mirror over a normal mirror is my fave bathroom ever!!!"
– Sarah (Matters of Style) c/o Little Green Notebook
"I have had my eye on this design feature for awhile [and} looking for a place to incorporate it. I absolutely love the [first] picture."
– sillybee c/o Apartment Therapy
– DECEMBER 4, 2009 –
My trip to LA last November was fabulous. Inspiring and fruitful. I incorporated
– JANUARY 1, 2010 –
My favorite Luxe & Lucid entry from the past year.
A personal and cathartic statement delivered via a hip, irreverent post.
– JANUARY 19, 2010 –
The obvious fun of this post was celebrating my own zodiac sign. But I stumbled upon a
lot of other interesting and unexpected tidbits while researching as well. And who knew I
would be able to incorporate one of my favorite artists – Kris Kristofferson – into a blog about
horoscopes? That’s the secret joy of blogging; you never know where it will take you.
– MARCH 5, 2010 –
As many of my readers may now realize, I try to find the humor in my job and the precarious situations I
so often find myself in. This was one of those days. I know we sometimes accomplish the impossible,
but it’s all in a day’s work. Still, it was nice to pull the curtain back for once, so everyone else could see the
reality of my glamorous (ha!) life. And comments like the one below help me smile through the madness.
“Holy Crap, pardon me, but y’all are amazing. Love that your client was right there.
Tricia, you have nerves of steel and fabulous style to boot”
– Claire / High Gloss Blue
– MAY 11, 2010 –
This post pulled me deeper into my romance with fragrances. Intoxicating, sensuous, glamorous.
And a key player in the battlefield of love and passion for millennia. I can’t get enough.
– JULY 1, 2010 –
I loved that fellow designers and fashionistas were able to find inspiration in my digital storyboards.
"Fabulous idea. I think I fit into board #2 myself. Delicious.”
– Stefan / ArchitectDesign
- AUGUST 26, 2010 –
Blogging about Etsy turned out to be a slightly dangerous undertaking. One, because
it led to shopping. Shocker. And two, because it elicited my first negative comment from
a reader [who called me a snob]. Ugh. Seriously people, I work 7 days a week and write
this blog in my after hours – i.e. between 7PM and 4AM – cut me a little slack please.
– SEPTEMBER 12, 2010 –
It’s good to know from suffering comes so much joy. I think everyone who read this
post – including me – got a big kick out of it. Every time I look back at that painful and
delirious list, I laugh. Like they say, truth is stranger than fiction. Yes, this is my life.
A big thank you to all my readers and subscribers. I love your feedback, so keep it coming. And a
shout-out to my international fans. Your attention to my fledgling blog is really exciting. Here’s a list of some
of the countries who’ve checked in with Luxe & Lucid from around the globe this year. Love, love, love it!

Dear Mr Zuma
Sir, when people say to anyone; “With all due respect” you know that they are not really according you any respect.
So….. WITH ALL DUE RESPECT – I am an ordinary guy, not too bright, but with a great love for our country and people in it. At all times I try and put our country first. I do not profess to know how to run a country. As a collective we entrust our politicians to guide our country’s voters to becoming the best that we can be.
Who am I to judge anyone, especially you Mr Zuma, when it comes to deciding just who gets those plumb ministerial jobs? I hope you explained nicely to Nhlanhla Nene why you were getting rid of him. Now will you accord us the same respect please?
As an aside – have you ever noticed how people will revert to calling you ‘Mister’ whenever you are in trouble? I know this because I got into a lot of trouble at school.
Moving on – You may be saying to your wives whilst all snuggled up this morning that South Africans ‘don’t understand’, ‘cannot see the bigger picture’, ‘that the Rand will recover’. Maybe you are feeling a little bit hurt that people are demanding your head. Maybe last night’s steak is sitting a bit uncomfortably in your belly this morning as you walk around Nkandla seeking a quiet spot for a burp and a fart whilst listening to the quiet lowing of your prize cattle. May I suggest that you take that cup of tea and sit quietly in a corner of your kraal and reflect a bit on how you are about to hurt the ordinary man – those Gogo’s of Nkandla Village will suffer just a bit more in the future as the price of petrol and food increases in response to the Rand being battered.
I say it again – I am a simple dumb guy but when I see and hear brilliant financial minds predicting a dire future, local business chambers issuing warnings, your own ministers shell shocked at your actions and former ministers urging the ANC to bring you to account I think that I am permitted to worry a little.
Voters are like children – they need structure, rules, hope and trust in the people they pay to do the job of carrying out their wishes.
WITH ALL DUE RESPECT MISTER Zuma the voters on our wonderful country no longer have structure, watch rules being broken, have lost trust and have learned to suppress their wishes.
Your Humble Servant
Make your voice heard and sign Brent Lindeque from Johannesburg‘s petition: Zuma needs to step down. Government in SA needs to change before its too late on the Change.org site.

Elladan and Elrohir had been practical jokers and mischief-makers ever since they had been small children. When one is
of that particular nature, one naturally has to develop both very good survival skills, and an acute sense of stealth. Being
Elves, this wasn't too difficult for them.
And so it was that the two brothers, having had several millennia of practice,
crept down the hallway towards Figwit's room. They were hoping against hope that the room would be unoccupied. If it wasn't,
they'd have to think up some half-hearted excuse as to why they were creeping down the hallway towards Figwit's room, and
the Twins weren't feeling all that creative at the moment.
The Twins did, in fact, have a good reason for all this
sneaking around. They were both loath to leave Elrond in one hiding place for more than a few days for fear that someone would
find him. And that would be just horrible, wouldn't it? Elrond had been in Figwit's room for several days
now, and the Twins wanted to move him. Glorfindel had agreed to keep the Elf Lord for the time being, and had promised not
to tell any of his friends who were always stopping by.
Elladan knocked tentatively on Figwit's door, though from
past experiences he knew this wasn't a very good way to tell if the room was occupied. There was no answer, and he poked his
head through the door. The room was empty. Beckoning to Elrohir, Elladan led the way into the room.
"Ok, let's be
quick," Elrohir pleaded. "We don't know where Figwit and Sprite have gone off to, and either of them might come back at any
"Righty-o, then," Elladan said, nodding. "Where'd we hide Dad, again?"
Elrohir sighed. "Liquor cabinet.
Moria Black Ale. Ring a bell?" He tapped the side of his brother's head and sighed exaggeratedly.
"Of course!" Elladan
sniffed. "I was just seeing if YOU remembered." Elrohir rolled his eyes.
"Just get the darn box and let's skedaddle,"
Elladan squatted in front of the liquor cabinet and opened the door. He reached into the back corner, behind
the bottle of Moria Black Ale, where he and Elrohir had last left their father. He stretched out his hand, and touched...
A scrap of plastic, a chewed-up bit of cardboard. Bits and pieces, but nothing more. Elladan withdrew his hand from the recesses
of the cabinet, his fist closed around the pieces of the box.
"Um... Elrohir?" He called to the younger twin, who
was keeping watch. "You may wanna come look at this..."
Elrohir came over and stared for a long moment at the scraps
that once were the box that held their father. Then he voiced the terrible, horrifying thought that was wrecking havoc in
both their minds: "What in Eru's name are we going to tell Arwen?"
Elladan groaned. "I don't even want to think about
it right now!" he said. "She's angry enough at it is without Dad getting eaten by mice! She'll think it's all our fault!"
"Well, technically it is," Elrohir pointed out. "And anyway, I don't think mice ate him. There's no blood."
had not yet completely closed the door of the liquor cabinet. Just inside the door, a rat of BEER crouched in the shadows.
His little eyes narrowed as he listened to the Twins talking about mice. To think that the work of BEER could be mistaken
for that of those wimpy little rodents! This particular rat, a young warrior named Bilge, was glad of his fine heritage. He
was possibly a son of the late King Ratticus! (Of course, this was debatable, as his mother had never been entirely sure who
Bilge's father really was.)
With a squeak of indignation, Bilge turned his tail and scurried away. He'd heard enough.
Meanwhile, the Twins were trying to figure out what to do. "Well, this mission has been brought to a screeching halt,"
Elrohir said, staring at the scraps in his brother's hand.
"We need to get out of here," Elladan said distractedly,
looking around. "Come on, let's go find Glorfindel."
"And he'll know what to do?" Elrohir asked doubtfully.
doubt it," Elladan replied. "But it's better than telling Arwen!" Elrohir agreed whole-heartedly.
At that moment, Figwit and Sprite were hanging out with Legolas, Sake, and Aldawen in Legolas' rooms. They were having
a grand old time, but Sprite couldn't help but notice that Aldawen seemed strangely silent, and looked nervous. Sake, Legolas,
and Figwit seemed to be making plans to go out into the yard and do some sparring. Sprite wondered vaguely how she could get
out of it and corner Aldawen to see what was wrong.
Aldawen, it seemed, had the same idea. "No thanks, I don't really
feel like it," she said, when Legolas invited her to join them.
"Sprite?" asked Figwit. "You coming?"
a little tired," Sprite lied. "I'll meet you back in your rooms later." Figwit nodded, and left with Legolas and Sake.
looked at Sprite and said, "Sprite, can I talk to you about something?"
At the exact same moment, Sprite said, "Ok,
Aldawen, what's the matter?"
There was a moment's silence as both young women looked at each other grinning. Then
Aldawen's grin faded.
"Well... I was wondering if I could talk to you about something..." she said awkwardly. "It's
a sort of divulging-my-deepest-darkest-secrets sort of thing, and I don't really want to talk to Sake about it and I definitely
can't tell Legolas."
"Ok," Sprite said, intrigued but also a little worried. "What's up?"
ran her fingers through her hair distractedly. She got up, muttering under her breath, and to Sprite's surprise took out her
"Aldawen...?" Sprite asked. Aldawen typed for a moment, and then beckoned Sprite to come over to where she
was. Sprite got up from her seat and went over to the younger girl.
Aldawen pointed to the screen, making sure Sprite
noticed one specific folder among all the rest. Aldawen then clicked on the folder. Once it was open, Sprite saw what it contained--
It was full of pictures of Captain Jack Sparrow!
Aldawen stared at the screen in despair. "Is it possible to love
two men at once?" she asked plaintively.
Sprite's reaction was far from what Aldawen had anticipated, and she didn't
like it very much. Sprite threw back her head and laughed out loud, brimming with mirth.
"Sprite!" Aldawen said, clearly
annoyed. "I'm divulging my deepest darkest secrets and you find it FUNNY?"
"I'm sorry," said Sprite, wiping her eyes.
"If I was expecting anything, it certainly wasn't that."
"What WERE you expecting?" Aldawen asked crossly. However,
she didn't really want an answer, and she continued on before Sprite could give her one. "I just don't know what to do! I
adore Legolas as much as I adore Jack, but I don't know how long I can keep this up! I don't want to hurt Legolas, but Jack
seems so appealing since I can't have him."
"Then do what I did." Sprite said, serious once more.
blinked. "O-k," she said. "I never thought you could ever get yourself into a situation like this, but what DID you do?"
pulled her knees up to her chest and wrapped her arms around her legs. Her eyes took on a distant look as she gazed at Aldawens
screen for a second, then she looked up. "Tell Legolas your problem, have a good laugh over it, and then forget about it because
you know it'll never be," she said.
Aldawen thought about this. "Do I have to forget about it?" she asked. "Cause
my Little Pirate Man is kinda sorta a little bit REALLY FRICKIN' HOTT!!"
"Nah, you don't have to forget about him,"
Sprite said. "It's good to have your fantasies as well as a reality." She sighed almost wistfully and stared into space.
you don't mind my asking," Aldawen said tentatively, "who was it you liked and told Figwit about?"
A grin suddenly
appeared on Sprite's face, and Aldawen was at once not all sure she wanted to know the answer to her question. Still smirking,
Sprite looked Aldawen directly in the eye and said, "Legolas."
Elladan and Elrohir hurried
down the hallway, glad to have escaped Figwit's room without being found. They fled down a flight of stairs and stopped in
front of a door, out of breath.
It was Elrohir who knocked this time, and he called, "Glor? You there?"
door was almost instantly opened by the Twins' beloved friend and mentor, the great Elf lord Glorfindel. "Hey guys!" he said,
grinning. "I was wondering when you'd get here." He paused, looked around, and then leaned closer to the Twins, whispering,
"You got him? I have just to place to-" He stopped when he saw the look of panic on the two identical faces in front of him.
"Ok," Glorfindel said, folding his arms in front of his chest. "What went wrong this time."
"This," said Elladan,
holding out the debris of the deceased action figure box.. Glorfindel surveyed it silently for a moment.
said finally. "We have definitely got a problem.
At that moment, they all heard the sound of pounding feet. It was
accompanied by a furious snarling roar; like that of an enraged wild beast. It grew louder, and seemed to be coming in their
With visions of balrogs dancing in his head, Glorfindel frowned and disappeared into his room. He returned
a moment later holding a very large, very sharp-looking sword. Still the howling grew louder, and over the sound of pounding
feet grew nearer. They could barely hear a human voice, loudly cursing in an unfamiliar language, and the distinctive clash
of an elven sword.
Glorfindel tightened the grip on his sword, and the Twins casually stepped behind him. And lo,
the source of the noise came barrelling around a corner.
The three Elves watched, bemused, as Sprite was chased down
the corridor by a very obviously furious Aldawen. Every once and a while, generally when Aldawen was getting a bit too close
for her comfort, Sprite would turn to face her and the swords the fangirls were carrying clashed together. It was during one
such occasion, when their swords were locked that Sprite screamed, "I TOLD YOU! IT WAS A WHILE AGO! I DON'T HAVE A CRUSH ON
Aldawen snarled, at an equally loud volume, "YOU SHALL NOT COVET MY LUST-OBJECT, FOUL TEMPTRESS!"
a growl and a flash of silver, Sprite pushed Aldawen back a pace; the smaller, battered blade Aldawen carried separated from
the one of elvish make in Sprites hand. Sprite took off once more, heading for another part of Rivendell.
slowly lowered his sword and looked at the Twins with his eyebrows raised. "And it looks like we're not the only ones with
problems!" he said, grinning. | <urn:uuid:6c65f76b-71b9-413a-97fa-368a1ff15a13> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://newmoon22.tripod.com/id40.html | 2019-07-22T03:25:08Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.986839 | 2,657 |
Rosh Hashanah (First Day) - 5778/2017
Rabbi David Baum, Congregation Shaarei Kodesh
Have you ever heard the term Hurricane babies? Hurricane babies are generally born 9 months after a major hurricane. A couple is hunkered down in their home, the power is out, the candles are burning, and well, you get the picture. I wanted to share something you may not know about me: I'm a hurricane baby.
On August 25th 1979, the same day I entered the world, the US National Hurricane Center reported that a tropical depression had developed and the storm was given the name, David. So I'm a hurricane baby, but not in the traditional sense – both Hurricane David and I were born on the same day. 1
My parents often tell me the story of Hurricane David– my parents and grandparents had moved to Florida just five years before from New York, and they knew little about hurricanes. Hurricane David was a category 5 storm before it hit the Dominican Republic, close… | <urn:uuid:3f4cdeed-1ceb-4ad7-a360-d7848be5a997> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://rabbidavidbaum.blogspot.com/2017_09_23_archive.html | 2019-07-22T03:16:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.97436 | 213 |

I’m not quite sure when it became socially acceptable for a grown man to spend his entire day playing video games, but that was probably around the same time that evolution failed us; or we failed evolution, I don’t know. If you think about it, that moment – was it a moment, or did everything just somehow go wrong over time? I’m not too sure about that one either. But anyway, whatever it was, it sealed our fate as the saddest, most useless generation in history. Then came the Kardshians, the Real Housewives, and Bachelors, and Bachelorettes, and Teen Moms; the Twilights and the Christian Greys; it was the perfect plan, beautifully designed and executed without flaw: mindless entertainment to turn us all into mindless zombies. The idea of a zombie apocalypse became such a major cultural phenomenon in those years, and the greatest irony was that we were already living it.
I always noticed. Even at the tender age of sixteen, I was painfully aware that all was not right with the world, that nothing was really right with the world.
I didn’t have many friends. The kids my age were all sold on the Kardashians; they obsessed over Kylie’s new hair and what Kim wore to the VMA’s last night. They didn’t care that we were destroying the Middle East, spying on our own people, or persecuting the only man who had the courage to shed light on the fact. They had no idea what was even happening.
I saw, and they didn’t, so they were frustrating and I was weird, and we kept our mutual distance. I felt like Belle from Beauty and the Beast. I heard the whispers: “she’s such a pretty girl. It’s a shame that she’s so strange.”
I was the strange, pretty girl.
People told me I was pretty all the time. It wasn’t just Daddy either. His friends, random people on the bus, even some of the boys at school – I heard it all the time, but I didn’t pay much attention to it. It’s not that I didn’t believe them. I didn’t have self-esteem issues or anything. I didn’t mind what I saw when I looked in the mirror. It just never really mattered. Being pretty wasn’t going to cure cancer, or feed the hungry, or save the world.
You ask a little girl what she wants to be when she grows up, and the answers are generally the same: ballerina, singer, actress, model, maybe the occasional doctor or lawyer if her parents have done their jobs right. None of that was ever enough for me. I wanted to be Supergirl, Batgirl, the first woman president, a UN ambassador. I wanted to be somebody who could do something important. It all seemed so glorious to me then, so simple. As if a few words spoken by a naive little girl were going to make any sort of difference in any matter. As if it would take anything less than a bloody, violent revolution to scrape out the century of rot and decay that had shaped the fate of our nation.
But how could I possibly know, at sixteen, that my life would become what it did?
I was a child. I would have never admitted that then. I fancied myself fully-grown and wise beyond my years. In some ways I guess I was; in most, I was a sheltered, naive child.
I lost my mother to cancer right before my third birthday. According to daddy and all the photos and videos, she was beautiful, smart, and kind.
I can’t tell you I miss her. How can you miss something you’ve never had? Many, many times in my life I’ve found myself wishing I had a mother, but I’ve never missed her.
For thirteen years, it was just daddy and me in a big old house in the Hollywood Hills. I never wanted for anything. Daddy made sure I had the best of everything, from clothes, to food, to gadgets, and, of course, school. School was our priority. The only thing he ever asked of me was to excel; to be the best at everything I tried.
And I did.
Going into the eleventh grade, I was number one in my class, captain of my track and soccer teams, and first chair violin in my school’s orchestra. Daddy bought me a Mustang for my sixteenth birthday.
I never took any of this for granted. Daddy made sure of that too. We were very fortunate, he always stressed that. So lucky to have what we had.
But we had to work for it. That was the other thing he was always preaching. No one ever got anywhere without hard work. He never watched much TV, so I assumed he didn’t know about the Kardashians. But I kept my mouth shut and worked hard.
I was going to go to Harvard. Get a law degree. Become an ambassador. Change the world. How was I supposed to know, how could I have possibly guessed what fate had in store for me?
I had no idea what Daddy did for a living. We had money. We always had money. I knew he worked for the government to some extent, that’s all. He never told me the details, and I never really asked. I always just figured that if it had been important, if I’d needed to know, he would’ve told me.
The night the sky turned black and the world exploded, I wished he’d told me. That night I understood, perhaps for the first time in my life, that my father was more than just my father; that he’d had a whole other life outside of the bubble he had built for the two of us, just the two of us. There’d been this other world outside of our home where he’d been this other thing to a bunch of other people.
That realization broke my little sixteen year-old heart. I’d always told him everything; there was no detail of my life that he hadn’t known about. And all along he’d kept this huge, important secret from me, then left me alone to solve the mystery and pick up the pieces. Thanks dad.
That night, we’d been watching the Clippers game. I’d been working on my AP Chemistry homework, half-assing it considerably, because I had been giving a rather long speech about why Blake Griffin was the best player in the NBA. I’d known Daddy hadn’t really been listening. If he had, he would have definitely given me a stern lecture about not paying attention to my homework.
He’d been home when I had gotten home from school that day. I’d just figured he’d been feeling sick, or had a headache or something. I hadn’t asked him about it. Daddy hated showing any weakness, so I never let on that I noticed he wasn’t feeling well. I’d just gone about my afternoon as usual; I had finished most of my homework, gone for a run, then a swim, then we’d had dinner and sat down to watch the game.
As it had gotten darker, he’d started looking at the door. Every few minutes or so, he’d turn away from the TV to look at the front door. I’d tried to keep my attention focused on the game and my homework, but his actions had started making me rather nervous.
Something had happened in the game; the announcers had been excited. The replay had shown Blake Griffin dunking over the entire Spurs team. I’d grown excited. But Daddy had been up and pacing from the big bay window that overlooked our entire front yard to the front door, then back to the window, then the door.
Just as I’d worked up the courage to ask him what was wrong, the loudest sound I have ever heard in my life had erupted; I could not for the life of me have told you where it had come from. I’d thought, initially, that it had been from me, because my very bones had shook within my body. It had felt like every nerve inside of me was vibrating. Then I’d seen it, behind the drapes – the sky had caught fire.
Everything had happened so fast, yet I’d felt like I’d been watching a slow motion movie. I had heard people speak of out-of-body experiences; I’m pretty sure I had one that night. I’d felt like I had stepped out of myself and was watching the life I had so carefully constructed, splinter by splinter, go up in flames. Literally.
The sweet, naive sixteen year-old girl in front of me had been shaking. The noise had been so loud, she’d felt as though she would explode. She had fallen to the floor and had frantically been looking around for her father. Her arms had been wrapped around herself, as if she’d been trying to hold herself together, afraid that if she let go or loosened her grip even a little, she would fall apart.
“Hailey!” I’d heard Daddy call, “go to your room, lock the door, and get under your bed! Don’t come out until I tell you to! Go, now!”
I’d moved. Daddy had given an order. That had trumped my fear. Somehow, to this day I don’t know how, but somehow I had made it to my room. I’d locked the door and gotten under my bed. Like a good little girl, I’d done what my daddy had told me to do. And the sheer comedy of it all? He’d told me to not come out until he said so. He’d known he was never going to say so, never going to tell me anything ever again. Even then, even when shit had fully hit the fan, he couldn’t be honest with me.
I don’t know when they’d taken him. The explosions had persisted into the night and well into the next morning. It had been so loud, I hadn’t even been able to hear the sound of my own teeth chattering. To say that I’d been terrified would be a gross understatement. No words have ever been invented in any language to describe how I’d felt that night. I’d wanted my daddy. More than once, I had contemplated leaving my room to go find him. Surely we should be together. But Daddy had said to stay under my bed, so I’d stayed under my bed, arms around myself, holding myself together.
Sometime into the next morning, the noise had subsided. Still, the only thing I’d been able to hear had been the very loud ringing in my ears.
But where was Daddy? I’d contemplated, once again, leaving the solace of my room to go find him. But he’d said to stay. Stay until he told me to come out. What if I left and he got mad? But what if he was hurt and he needed me?
In the single greatest act of rebellion of my sixteen years, I’d crawled out from under my bed. I had grabbed my teddy bear, Dr. Ted, for moral support on my way under there last night, and I’d kept him close to me as I had turned the knob on my bedroom door and stepped out into the hallway.
Everything had looked the same. How was that even possible? It had felt like the world was ending last night, so how was the house still standing?
“Daddy,” I’d called out softly, tiptoeing toward the living room. “Daddy,” a little louder.
Suddenly, I’d been surrounded. Men with guns, in army uniforms. Maybe they’d come to take Daddy and me somewhere safe. Daddy did work for the government. But they’d been pointing their guns at me and that had made me very nervous.
“Are you Hailey Morgan?” one of them had asked.
I’d opened my mouth to answer him, but no sound had come out. My throat had been swollen shut – out of fear, from all the noise last night, I wasn’t sure.
One of them had grabbed my ponytail, yanked hard, and slammed me against the wall. It was definitely fear.
“Answer the fucking question,” he’d growled into my ear.
He had still been pulling my hair and it had felt like torture on my already-hurting head.
“Where’s my daddy?” I’d managed to cry out.
“Is Charles Morgan your daddy?” one of them had asked.
He’d walked up to the guy that had me pressed up against the wall.
“Scott, let her go.”
Scott had pulled my hair harder. I’d yelped.
“Jesus Christ Scott, she’s just a kid. Let her go.” There had been authority in his voice. Maybe he’s their leader, I’d thought. Scott had let go of my ponytail and stepped away from me.
The leader had knelt down next to me. He’d been quite tall. Kneeling, he had been at eye level with me. “Is Charles Morgan your daddy?” He’d asked again.
I’d nodded. He had handed Dr. Ted to me. I hadn’t realized I’d dropped him.
He’d sighed, as if about to do something he hadn’t wanted to do.
“Take her,” he’d said.
Scott had pressed a wet cloth to my mouth and nose, and I’d started to feel dizzy.
The last thing I remember is someone pulling a hood over my head. Then I’d blacked out. | <urn:uuid:eb5bf31c-9043-40b3-9d26-12e026a2851c> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://rosevintage.net/category/writing/novel-untitled-writing/chapter-1/ | 2019-07-22T03:39:34Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.990163 | 3,046 |

0422 GMT July 22, 2019
Recently, however, researchers have shown that memory T cells specific to viral infections can also set up residence in particular tissues. There, they stand guard, ready to respond quickly to the first sign of reinfection.
Now, research led by a team from the University Of Pennsylvania School Of Veterinary Medicine shows that these resident memory T cells also form in response to parasite infection. The new study found that, after infection with the parasitic disease leishmaniasis, a population of T cells with a memory for the parasite remained in the skin, Science Daily wrote.
This is the first time that a group of T cells has been found to be resident in a tissue in response to a parasite infection, and the finding could help inform efforts to develop an effective vaccine for leishmaniasis, as well as other diseases such as tuberculosis and leprosy.
T cells detect invaders in the body and can kill infected cells either directly, in the case of CD8 T cells, or indirectly, in the case of CD4 T cells, by enlisting the help of other immune cells. Scott's lab has found that CD4 cells are particularly important in controlling leishmaniasis.
After an infection, a population of memory T cells remains in the body to respond quickly if reinfection occurs. Yet findings from Scott's lab supported the idea that circulating T cells weren't the only way the immune system protected against reinfection.
Studies in the lab showed that transferring circulating CD4 T cells from a mouse that had contracted and then recovered from leishmania infection into a mouse that had never had the infection offered partial but not complete protection from subsequent infection.
Taking mice that had and then recovered from leishmaniasis, Scott's team looked for Leishmania parasite-specific T cells in areas of the skin, both from the site of infection and other sites. They found Leishmania-responsive cells throughout the skin of these mice, even in sites distant from the initial infection, as long as a year after infection.
"It was a little surprising that there were so many Leishmania-reacting cells in the skin," Scott said, "But it still left us with, well, maybe they're just circulating cells that happen to have been found in the skin." | <urn:uuid:4bfbf4e8-e14e-4e1d-9564-364d91a939ea> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://www.iran-daily.com/News/123520.html | 2019-07-22T04:29:14Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.97023 | 469 |

VipCancro is the Italian group comprising Andrea Borghi, Alberto Picchi (electronics), Filippo Ciavoli Cortelli (percussion), and Nicola Quiriconi. We noted a copy of their 2010 outing Tropico and enjoyed the “throbbing, meandery gloom” which the threesome were capable of creating at that time. Today’s release UNO (LISCA RECORDS LISCA 015) contains three recordings from 2015 and 2016, one of which appears to have been captured at the Venice Biennale. I mention this because I’m intrigued by the amount of “audience noise” which has seeped onto the tape, and in the case of the first long track seems to have as much presence and importance as the music itself. Weirdly, said audience sound also appears on the studio cuts, for reasons I cannot fathom. Maybe it’s been ported across on tape. In fact it’s not so much audience noise as art-gallery ambience, a kind of extra space in the music, the voices of bored and disaffected art consumers wandering by as they wheel their uninterested children around the resonant space. In this charged atmosphere, VipCancro’s music appears to be an intervention of some sort; they’re not trying to be unobtrusive and remain unnoticed, but at the same time it’s hard to know when the performances start and end. The music is one more feature in an interesting sonic field, and rendered somewhat diffuse in the process. In fact, it’s hard to say who is playing what, or even what instruments might be involved. All of this is fascinating, producing a listening experience that is strangely compelling in ways I can’t quite understand. They might be trying to undermine the traditional concept of recorded improvisational works in some way. There’s a real sensitivity to acoustics and timbres, a sense of space, and not just of musicians invading the arena to demonstrate their prowess and performing abilities. From 4th May 2017; many thanks to Nicola Quiriconi who sent this from Lucca.
Nicola Quiriconi also sent us the self-titled record by Daimon (Metzger Therapie #003), a new trio project to which he adds his voice to the guitar and electronics of Paulo Monti (from The Star Pillow) and the electronics of Simon Balestrazzi, everyone’s favourite of occult-flavoured drone atmospheres. Released by the German label Metzger Therapie, who describe Daimon as an “obscure deep-drone audio-visual” project, which may mean they screen movies during performances. Bound to appeal to fans of Zoviet France, who often created similarly intense and smothering episodes of fogged-out blank drone with a highly sinister edge. Daimon work best for me when the voice elements, subtly added and edging into our consciousness, are blended with the electronic noise in a creepy and discomfiting manner. Only one track ‘Take The Telescope and Go’ makes any concessions to audience pleasure with its soothing ambient currents; the remainder is dark, abstract, and slow explorations of ghostly zones. The titles ‘A Call’, ‘He’s Seeing You’ and ‘Almost Blind’ imply all manner of unseen entities and phantoms around us, surveilling our actions and attempting to contact us from beyond the grave.

Krupa: Wings make moves, but not enough
Detroit — What does it all mean for the Red Wings, trade deadline 2018?
It means they are rebuilding and not going fast enough, with enough results.
Signs of some acceleration and greater effect are perceptible. But the reconstruction still lags.
They became sellers in 2018, just as they were in 2017, and did a nice job of collecting cherished and critical draft picks, the resources integral to rebuilding given the state of the personnel rules.
This year, by trading Petr Mrazek and Tomas Tatar, they also have finally begun moving out some salary.
That is a good, but overdue, development.
Meanwhile, Mrazek and Tatar were producers, and far from the top choices for the rummage sale the Wings are best advised to endure. But some fans are learning what management already knew: Beggars cannot be choosey.
More: ‘Looking to the future,’ Wings swap Tatar for three draft picks
Given the state of the Red Wings’ roster, the measure of talent and performance compared to their contracts, there might well have been some pleading in recent days. Previous decisions management made to lock up several players at generous salary and term, even as the need for a reconstruction loomed, have made the remodeling project more difficult.
It contributes to guys like Mrazek and Tatar going first, because they attract the best offers.
As Mike Babcock said over the weekend, “It’s called ‘trade’ deadline. So, it’s not like Christmas where someone drops off gifts.”
That reality led to the hope the Red Wings would have handled their goaltending situation better, beginning in the summer of 2016.
Mrazek and Jimmy Howard gave them an enviable tandem. Get them both going and, given the state of the roster, get one of them out to the highest bidder.
Mark that project “A.S.A.P.”
Instead, management and Jeff Blashill made clear their intent to march with the two goalies into the playoffs.
“Because once you are in there ...”
At this juncture, do not criticize what the Red Wings got in return for trading Mrazek to the Flyers.
Criticize creating the circumstances that made the deal acceptable.
Their decision to prepare for the playoffs instead of rebuilding led to the hope that a sterling performance in net might deliver the goods. The prime goal, in that moment and until this week, should have been achieving the best personnel return for Mrazek or Jimmy Howard.
The rebuilding should have taken precedence well before trade deadline 2018, and even now, it is not clear that it has.
Mrazek had a rough season last year in part because he thought the top job should have been his. Either Howard or Mrazek should have been prepared for market and shipped off before the situation arose, preferably last season.
But the yield Monday in the right-on-the-deadline trade for Tatar is more handsome. The move also is better engineered.
Tatar will be missed. His offensive contribution on one of the most offensively-challenged rosters in the NHL proved important.
But he would not have replaced Henrik Zetterberg, just as he has not replaced Pavel Datsyuk.
And the Red Wings have a group of prospects at forward, including several in Detroit and some in Grand Rapids and playing major junior hockey this season, along with 11 draft picks this summer, including, due to dealing Tatar to the Golden Knights, two in the first round.
Tatar also yielded a second-round pick in 2019 and a third-round pick in the 2021.
And the Red Wings retained no salary.
More: Joe Louis developer wants two-year extension
Holland told me he received no similar offer for Gustav Nyquist, whose career has developed similarly to Tatar’s in Grand Rapids and Detroit.
Tatar had to go. It is the sort of trade the Red Wings must make to rebuild.
They need to cull salary, draft well and develop players.
They did a good job last summer of setting up the Tatar deal, amid some impatience from the player, by securing terms favorable enough for a contender, like Vegas, to find Tatar an appealing addition.
The trade is a strong, positive sign.
But it is also a move made necessary, at this juncture, by mistakes of the past, by not preparing earlier to rebuild the roster, including by disciplining the money and term offered to a group of forwards who might be a fine support cast, but who will not be stars.
On an evening conference call, Holland said he could not properly move Mike Green because of his injury, and the fact that it might reoccur. Also, he said, other defensemen were available.
But the fact of the matter is the Red Wings like Green.
They like that he provides the lion’s share of their offense from the blue line, for a second season, and that he and Trevor Daley help provide preserving-the-culture leadership on a developing roster.
That said, Joe Hicketts should have been on the Wings’ roster from the start of the season, and the young defenseman they should talk about calling up now is Filip Hronek, who is hot offensively in Grand Rapids.
Holland indicated that he did not get the offers he expected for Green. He said that two teams inquired about the defenseman’s health.
The Tatar deal indicates that the Red Wings are ready to move the rebuilding process to a higher priority. It is certainly more important than winning, now.
It has been for a while.
If they hung on to Green for points in the standings, it indicates the opposite. | <urn:uuid:8a93517b-a483-46a8-b0f5-c6038c18364e> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://apnews.com/f596db9fe7d0436b8cc2d850c20c6adb | 2019-07-22T03:18:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.961902 | 1,216 |
A lot of people have the mistaken impression that if you spend $20,000 redoing your kitchen, you have just increased the value of your house by the same amount. Unfortunately, that is not the case. While there are some rough standard percentages (inground pool = 50%, bathroom remodel = 70%), it really all depends on your specific area.
If you are thinking about remodeling, take the time to think about why you are doing it. If you want to spend $50,000 remodeling a kitchen on a $150,000 house, understand that it will be quite a few years (and maybe many more depending on how the local real estate market is doing) before you ever regain that investment. My wife and I recently spent what I consider to be a small fortune (I'm cheap by nature) to do a major kitchen remodel - moving walls, custom cabinetry, high end fixtures and appliances, and granite counters. However, we plan to be in our house for quite a while, so we wanted to do it the way we wanted - something we would love and be happy with, regardless of the cost.
Conversely, if we wanted to update the kitchen to sell, we would have approached the project differently. Our kitchen was pretty dated, and it would have been a hindrance in the selling process. So if we had wanted to update it to sell it, we would have left the footprint the same, but re-tiled the floors with an attractive (but less expensive) tile, chosen a slightly lower grade granite for the counters, and installed new (but less of a premium) appliances. This would have saved us literally tens of thousands of dollars, and would have helped the house sell quicker and for more money. However, even in this scenario I doubt that we would have recouped all of our money. But in our neighborhood, buyers have an expectation of what shape the house should be in, and anything less gets a lowball offer or is the last one chosen over other active listings.
So when are you doing too much? To appraisers and real estate professionals, the concept is known as a "super-adequacy", or "over-improvement". For example, an air conditioning system in a house at the north pole is a super-adequacy. A 4-car garage on a 1,200sf ranch house in a low end subdivision. A 6-bedroom house in a neighborhood of 3 bedroom homes. Anything that is over and above what a typical buyer in that market is looking for is a super-adequacy. So if your master bath has a double shower with travertine tile and $700 fixtures, an oversized roman jetted tub, and granite counters with a decorative above-counter bowl, and all of your neighbors have a basic bathtub and Home Depot construction grade vanity, consider yourself to be over-improved.
If you are preparing to sell your home and you have the money to do some work on it, your first step is to understand what your competition has. Your realtor, or various on-line sites that list properties in your area, can show you what those homes have in them and what has been done to them, and this will show you what you need to do to get a similar price. For example, if your house is in average shape - well-kept but no major updates or improvements recently - and you see that the active listings in your area are all pretty similar, but have been freshly painted, then you know you have to at least paint. Additionally, you might consider a relatively small update that will get attention from potential buyers, such as installing new ceramic tile in the kitchen and bathrooms. A simple tile job can be done for as little as $5/sf by a professional installer ($2/sf for tile and $3/sf for the install). If you have 200 sf of baths and kitchens, you would likely easily recoup that $1,000 investment and sell your house quicker. But if you spent $15,000 on (for example) hardwood flooring, bath and kitchen remodels, etc., you may have priced yourself over what buyers are willing to pay for a home in that area.
The bottom line is that it is in your best interest to get help from a qualified real estate professional. They will know what you should do to get your home ready to sell at the most effective price. Also, there is also nothing wrong with consulting with a realtor well in advance, as long as you are upfront with them that when you finally get ready to sell you will be interviewing different realtors to decide which one to use. Finally, if you are not particularly skilled in home improvement projects, keep in mind that a poorly done tile job is worse than just leaving the old sheet vinyl. Pay someone to do it right!

Maritza knows all the movie illustrations you never knew would be pertinent to your mental health journey. In May of 2014 she graduated Summa Cum Laude (they don’t give that distinction in the grad college, but she worked hard for that GPA, so she reps it here) from Texas State University, where she became well-versed in Play Therapy and Child-Parent Relationship Therapy in addition to training with adolescents and adult individuals, families, and couples.

A new project has begun to see what we can do to improve the health of people in Sheffield with severe mental illness, learning disabilities and autistic spectrum disorder. Studies show that people with these conditions have an average life expectancy of up to 20 years less than the population as a whole.
There is lots of good work happening in the city to address this but we want to make sure everyone is working towards providing the best healthcare and opportunities for a healthy life to all.
We are launching this project with an event at St Mary’s Church, Bramall Lane on Tuesday December 4th. The event is open from 9am for registration and runs between 9.30 and 12.30

Address of the Minister of Transport, Communications and Works, Mrs. Vassiliki Anastasiades at the ceremony of awarding the Prizes and Diplomas to the 2nd grade students of the Public and Private High Schools, who were distinguished in the written Pancyprian Student Philatelic Competition of 2018-2019 on the subject “Churches and Monasteries of Cyprus and Cypriot Stamps” on Tuesday 7 May 2019, 11.30 am at the Cyprus Philatelic Society
It is with a great pleasure and satisfaction that I accepted for the 19th consecutive year, the invitation of the Cyprus Philatelic Society to present now the awards to the students of the 2nd class of the public and private high Schools, that appeared in better light in the Cyprus Student Philatelic Competition during the years 2018-2019, with a new subject of “Cyprus Churches, Monasteries and Cyprus Stamps”.
I warmly congratulate all of you, the participants for choosing to spend some of your free time exploring, studying and writing a remarkable and unique text for the relationship between the Churches and Monasteries of Cyprus and the Cyprus Stamps. This alone demonstrates the sensitivity and quality of your quests on issues such as the history and culture of our place. History and culture are elements that teach and help a people grow and mature.
The joy that is today painted on your faces is proof that the Pan-Cypriot Student Philatelic Contest, which has become an interesting institution, has much to offer. Your rich texts express your ideas about the relations between the Churches and Monasteries of Cyprus, the Cypriot Stamps, as well as the people as they are depicted in an artistic way by the relevant representations that are subtly, discreetly and over time displayed by the Cyprus stamps.
Although the dimensions of the stamps are so small, as precious miniatures, they have the distinct privilege and power to convey and display around the world many elements of the culture of a country. As you will have seen the stamps issued by the Cyprus Postal Services, wherever they travel, they show Cyprus, its history, its ancient culture and its natural wealth.
With their elegant depictions and their beauty, they attract and enchant all the people, Youngers and Olders, on all the backs and the lengths of the Earth. Beyond magic and beauty, these artistic creations are a matter of concern to people and sensitize them to key issues that concern the whole of humankind.
Dear students, dear friends,
I wish with all my heart that your current success will become the springboard, which will lead you to realize many other small and big goals in your life for your own good and the good of our country.
In closing this brief greeting, I would like to congratulate the Cyprus Postal Services, the Cyprus Philatelic Society, the Ministry of Education and Culture, and especially the Schools’ Directors and Teachers, as well as the parents who cooperated and encouraged their children to take part in this competition.

This research report provides a review of four new technology-driven business opportunities in the market today. This is a how-to guide for business owners and project leaders, rather than a discussion of the opportunities from a business perspective. The businesses we evaluate are Peer to Peer financing, non-bank indemnification markets, private settlement markets, and the integration of credit and market data.
In each section, we offer an operational flow chart and document the inputs necessary for taking each idea from concept to testable case study. The report shows how technology and business innovation by traditional banks, existing market structures, and new technology firms engaged in financial transactions are converging.
Innovation is the new catchphrase in bank capital markets activities. No longer able to sit on the sidelines while fintech firms outrace them to new business models, banks are taking a proactive role in creating new business opportunities built on technology. This leads to challenges and new thinking around how to operationalize ideas that are in the market requiring original or updated business models and frameworks to execute.
These opportunities are complicated and clients have yet to buy in that they too are looking at the next big thing. However, the business of capital markets is a constant tension between conservatism and innovation. When many business lines are well-tested, banks naturally resist change in preference of the status quo and this can result in overlooked opportunities. In an age of innovation, many fresh ideas should be taken seriously by banks actively engaged in their capital markets franchises.

Whether you're dreaming about getting your first tattoo or adding to your growing sleeve, you may have put more thought into the design than the health risks it might pose. The FDA does not regulate tattoo ink and there have been no systematic studies about the body's reaction to tattoo ink, how it is processed and the effect on human health. Adverse reactions to tattoos, including permanent make-up, can occur immediately after the procedure or appear years later. A tattoo is a permanent mark of self-expression so take time to consider the other effects it might have on your body.
Redness and Swelling
The presence of metal salts contained in some tattoo ink pigments can cause redness and swelling around the areas that have been penetrated by tattoo needles. This symptom can last up to three weeks. The FDA further notes that exposure to the sun has caused inflammation around tattoos in some people. This type of inflammation is most often associated with yellow pigmented tattoos, but can also appear in tattoos that use red pigment, as both pigments contain cadmium sulfide, which causes photosensitivity.
The Dermatological Society of New Zealand notes that allergic contact dermatitis and photoallergic dermatitis can occur as a result of hypersensitivity to tattoo pigments. These reactions manifest as a red rash, which is sometimes accompanied by scaly, flaking skin.
Though uncommon, skin infections have sometimes occurred after tattooing. The Dermatological Society of New Zealand lists impetigo, cellulitis, herpes simplex and viral warts as infections that could be transmitted through the use of improperly sterilized tattoo equipment. Confirm that the tattoo artist is a licensed practitioner who follows the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's universal precautions and has an autoclave in the studio to properly sterilize equipment.
If you have a pre-existing skin condition, such as eczema, it would be wise to reconsider your decision to get a tattoo. Tattoos can cause flare-ups in any pre-existing skin condition, according to Kid’s Health.
Formation of Granulomas
The FDA notes that the body sometimes treats tattoo pigments as unwanted foreign substances, leading to the formation of granulomas in the tattooed area. Granulomas are raised, red bumps made up of skin cells and white blood cells. They are most commonly associated with red tattoo ink.
Lichenoid reactions to tattoo ink appear as shiny, flat purple bumps covered with white lines. These are most commonly seen in the red areas of a tattoo because they are a reaction to red pigment. | <urn:uuid:c8c7728e-6df0-464a-973b-71636507b4d1> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://healthfully.com/116290-effects-tattoos-skin.html | 2019-07-22T03:15:12Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.948537 | 522 |

THREE RIVERS, Texas — A school board in Texas has approved a policy that that will allow a student to be paddled when they misbehave at school.
The Three Rivers Independent School board trustees unanimously approved the policy Tuesday, the Corpus Christi Caller-Times reports.
The policy will allow for paddles, likely made out of wood, to be used as corporal punishment against misbehaving students.
The students will receive one paddling for minor incidents such as not following classroom rules or being disobedient to teachers, according to the Caller-Times.
Only a behavior coordinator or a principal can administer the paddling, according to the policy.
However, parents in the school district about 75 miles south of San Antonio will have the opportunity to opt in or out of the policy, the Caller-Times reports.
“If the parent is not comfortable with it, that’s the end of the discussion,” superintendent Mary Springs told the Caller-Times.
Texas is one of 15 states where corporal punishment is allowed, USA Today reports. Eight other states, including Colorado, have no laws or regulations prohibiting it.
The Texas Classroom Teachers Association defines corporal punishment as “deliberate infliction of physical pain by hitting, paddling, spanking, slapping or any other physical force used as a means of discipline.”AlertMe | <urn:uuid:cc3b5eb7-a242-412c-917b-6f65ec23c057> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://kdvr.com/2017/07/23/texas-school-district-approves-paddling-to-punish-students/ | 2019-07-22T03:17:10Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.931659 | 283 |
In the initial stages of marriage or the latter of a happy relationship, buying a house together seems like a dream come true. Starting a life together, a dog and a garden, domestic bliss… but what happens when it all goes wrong? Coming to terms with the end of a relationship and/or marriage is difficult enough without considering the legal side of things. It seems like an impossible situation, especially if you have kids and pets to consider, however, there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. You not only have legal rights but many options when it comes to selling your home quickly following a separation.
The Legal Side of Things
First of all, you’ll both want to know what your legal rights are, whether you’re co-habiting or you’re married. Unfortunately if you’re not married, and your name isn’t on the mortgage paperwork, chances are your ex will be the one who gets the house, so that decision is made for you-you’ll have to either move out or attempt to continue to co-habit through your separation until you either work things out, or find an alternative place to live. Getting married does indeed give you more legal rights, however, it’s not for everyone and it’s certainly not a reason to walk down the aisle. If you are married, regardless of whose name is on the paperwork, you’re legally entitled to half of your partner’s assets. If you’re unmarried but both of your names are on the ownership deeds, you have two choices. The first one is to put the house on the market and split whatever profit you make on it, or you can reach your own compromise without getting involved in legalities. It’s obviously easier if go through an amicable split and can come to an arrangement together, but if this isn’t the case then seeking legal aid might be the best option for you. If you can’t come to some sort of agreement, then selling the house is really the only option left.
Find the Right Estate Agent
Selling your home is stressful as it is, without the added emotional upheaval of trying to do it quickly following a separation. It’s therefore especially important in this situation that you do your research and finds the right estate agent who will help you to sell your property as quickly and smoothly as possible.
First of all, it’s important to look at the estate agents and to make sure they’re up to date in their marketing techniques, and that these are proven to work. One of the most important things is having your home advertised regularly and in the right places to be sure it’s seen by the right potential buyers. However, it’s also important to look at the estate agent fees attached to their services. Although you’ll want the best service available to you, you’ll want to ensure that you’re not being overcharged for it. Don’t be scared of negotiating and threatening to go elsewhere – remember the estate agents need your business just as much as you need theirs.
The more estate agents that you have your home up for sale with, the chances are the quicker it’s going to be taken off the market. However, remember that the more estate agents you use, the more it’ll cost, so if you’re struggling for money this possibly isn’t the best option for you.
However, the downside to selling the traditional way is that there’s no guarantee that your house will be bought quickly. If you’re living in a post-separation warzone and you’re dying to get out as quickly as possible you may want to consider alternative methods of sale. One option is opting for selling to a company such as Ready Steady Sell, who will value your house for free, and buy it for cash regardless of how it looks, or your situation. If you’re going through a particularly difficult breakup and can’t agree on anything right now, this may be the best option for you. Hassle free, and you’ll be out of there as quickly as you like.
Make the House Sellable
Last but not least, if you are going to sell up, you might as well get a good price for the home you probably invested a lot of time and effort into. Decluttering, a lick of paint, and making a couple of upgrades in your home means you’ll sell it quicker and probably for more money. Going through a separation is difficult but selling your house doesn’t have to be. Remember not to think of it as an ending, but an opportunity – you’ve been given the chance to move on in life, so make the most of it! | <urn:uuid:c6158bb8-e872-453c-ad24-55108cac2211> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://kissasian.su/weve-just-broken-up-what-happens-to-the-house-now-and-how-can-we-sell-it-quickly/ | 2019-07-22T03:22:46Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.963719 | 999 |

How to Recycle 80% of Your Office Waste
18th November 2018
The Scottish government wants us to achieve 70% recycling targets by 2025. Brightwaste is pushing its office recycling clients to aim for 80%. As a country, we’re presently sitting at just over 60%.
The Scottish Government set out their vision for a zero waste society in 2010. Their vision sees a Scotland where all waste is seen as a valuable resource, not disposed of in landfills, and most waste is sorted so that only limited amounts need to be treated.
"Admittedly we’re getting better at our office waste recycling, but we need a step change to get to the next level," states Roger Green, MD of Brightwaste which provides nimble office recycling services across central Scotland, and wrote this article.
Here’s where the issues arise, and what we can do about them.
"We’re too busy, with too many other immediate, pressing priorities. Never mind an office waste recycling target, we’re fighting fires and chasing profit targets!"
Recycling needs to be easy and instinctive. How? Ask your recycling company to provide FREE cardboard bins, clearly marked, and plenty of them.
The cost to them is about £6 per box, but they’ll be saving many times that by more easily batching and selling your recycling. YES, recycling has a value - typically around £65 per tonne.
And, better still, it WILL improve your profitability targets. Recycled waste is approximately 25% cheaper to dispose of than General Waste, as you avoid landfill tax.
Plus, a genuine sustainability policy might help you win your next big tender submission.
"Is my crisp packet recyclable? No. Is my sandwich packet recyclable? No. What about that window envelope? Yes. And my coffee cup? No!" continues Roger Green of Brightwaste.
Ask your recycling firm for plenty of FREE laminated recycling awareness posters above the recycling bins and around the office. And ask them to come in to speak to your staff. They will WANT to. They want quality recycling as much as you do.
As you gradually collect more knowledge on recycling, the easier it becomes.
Have you tried the ‘Scrunch Test’? If anything bounces back when you scrunch it, don’t recycle it. Crisp and sandwich packets are good examples of this.
“I just don’t care. Why sweat the small stuff?”
I get this. 10 years ago, I actually felt a bit this way too.
But now recycling is no longer the ‘small stuff’. It’s actually vital to us and should be part of everyday life.
In the last 30 years we’ve seen an explosion in Employment Law and Health and Safety. Recycling and waste management is the next big thing, with increasing legislation, compliance requirements, and enforcement.
To quote the SEPA Chief Executive Terry A’Hearn: “Recycling is a real Scottish success story. The most successful countries in the 21st century will be resource efficient, circular economies, where what once was waste is valued as a resource.”
You can’t ignore the need to recycle your office waste responsibly. When you find the time, understand it and attack it, recycling actually feels good.
It’s easy, it feels good, it saves money, and it’s the law.

The China-based NEO development community NEXT has released its monthly progress report for April, noting the ongoing development of applications such as the NEOLine wallet and the conclusion of its dApp competition.
Extension wallet and browser
The NEXT team continued work on its latest project, NEOLine, a NEO extension wallet for Chrome. Followings its launch last week, the wallet has been released on the Chrome store and includes all typical wallet functionality in addition to a dAPI for dApp developers.
NEXT also made changes to the Blolys blockchain explorer, including improvements to the query statements and user experiences. Services have been transferred to new servers, optimized to provide timely access to data. Blolys was also updated to include NEO TestNet support.
Endorsit and The Token
Endorsit, a decentralized content ecosystem, is reported to be entering a new iteration of product development, designated 2.0. NEXT reports that in addition to changes to functionality, the UI has been overhauled to bring it in line with user preferences and expectations.
The team also noted improvements to The Token, an identity-focused dApp that manages personal data such as resumes. Updates have focused on the message protocol and image upload features, alongside refactoring efforts aimed at improving the application’s performance.
NEXT launched its “NEO DAPP Global Blockchain Application Development Challenge” on December 21st, 2018, which recently concluded after four months. 23 teams are reported to have participated, with 10 projects awarded a finalist prize of 2,000 CNY.
Six teams received unique awards as follows:
The ‘Best dApp’ award (10,000 CNY) was awarded to Liegames, a NEO-based battle card game that follows a rock-paper-scissors format.
The ‘Best Creative’ award (6,000 CNY) was awarded to ENDING, a dApp that allows users to submit challenges for completion, which can then be attempted by placing a deposit. For users that don’t want to attempt challenges themselves, they can instead observe challenges as supervisors, allowing them to be rewarded for helping to motivate and encourage the challengers.
The ‘Most Commercial Value’ award (6,000 CNY) was awarded to Candy Party, an investment game dApp that allows players to purchase and plant candy trees to grow different tokens in their candy gardens. Periodically the token market is updated, with players seeking to acquire the most valuable tokens through trade, growth, or by stealing them from other gardens.
The ‘Best Visual’ award (4,000 CNY) was awarded to Digital Painting Puzzle, where blockchain technology is used to protect copyright and track the value of user-created puzzle paintings. Players can sell the paintings or let players attempt to beat the puzzle.
The ‘Most Popular’ award (2,000 CNY) was awarded to NEO Real Raffle, a lottery game that uses smart contracts to determine rules and ensure that results and prize issuance are not be tampered with.
Full details on the dApp competition finalists may be found here.
NEXT community founder Wang Yuefeng attended and presented at the NEO JOY 2019 conference in Beijing, where he outlined NEXT’s approach to designing useful, user-friendly applications that provide a trustless and transparent experience for users.
The group also traveled to several Universities in the Ningbo, Shanghai and Hangzhou regions of China, where it shared thoughts on blockchain technology and its applications. | <urn:uuid:254cf333-f030-48eb-b021-2eda6440ce19> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://neonewstoday.com/development/next-dev-community-releases-april-report-concludes-dapp-competition/ | 2019-07-22T03:47:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.954448 | 724 |
Singer Billie Eilish says ‘Be Smarter’, Asks Fans to Go Vegan
Ever since the largest undercover dairy investigation by animal rights group Animal Recovery Mission (ARM) was released, the world literally is forced to realize what is truly involved in the milk they’re drinking, and from where it’s coming from. Voicing on the terrifically inhumane uncover of the Fair Oaks Farms in Indiana, American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish asked her 26.4 Million fans to ‘be smarter’ and think twice before drinking milk.

Popular American Singer Billie Eilish Asks 24 Million Fans to Go Vegan
In an Instagram story, the young singer wrote that she keeps her ‘mouth-shut’ about veganism since she believes everyone should be eating, doing and saying as ‘they want.’ She stated that she doesn’t feel the need “to shove” what she ‘believes in anyone’s face.” Then she stated, referring to the Fair Oaks Farms’ undercover footage, where grotesque levels of cold-bloodedness (like literally) has been seen (I couldn’t keep watching the video, anyway)-
“But man… if you can watch the videos that I just posted and not give a [expletive] that it’s YOU contributing by LITERALLY EATING the creatures that are being fully tortured just for your pleasure. I feel sorry for you.”Billie Eilish via Instagram
The singer went on to say that she knows people think that if one person stops, nothing is going to change and wrote that such thought is ‘ignorant and stupid.’ Billie stated next ‘you should know “one person” adds up.’ Now 17 years old, Eilish reportedly went vegan back in 2014.
Fair Oaks? Unfair to the Power Infinity!
The Fair Oaks Farms in Indiana happens to be one of the largest dairy producers in the States. The farm supplies dairy to the Coca-Cola-owned Fairlife brand that sells milk under a ‘premium’ tagline. Little did the drinkers of the brand know, what a fiendish trail of torture could be traced back until the undercover video was released.
Since the release, a number of retail outlets have called the Fairlife products off the shelves. ARM rightly states “If It’s Not Good Enough For Your Eyes, Why Is It Good Enough For Your Stomach?” What do you feel about Billie Eilish’s message?

Inspired by a combination of the countless “flash sale” websites taking over the internet; Urban Sanctuary will span three days and feature a multitude of interactive demos, displays, activities and entertainment for guests to experience.
Urban Sanctuary is designed to be just what it’s name implies; both an elegant and exclusive meeting place where industry leaders, emerging brands, trendsetting consumers, and the Hollywood elite gather to mix, mingle, sip & shop while raising money for various charitable organizations focused on improving communities & changing lives.
Boasting an elite list of clients + collaborators and offering a truly memorable shopping experience for guests; the members-only shopping club’s sole mission is to create positive change through a unique series of retail events that create, connect, and inspire attendees. At 4pm daily the Urban Sanctuary will be open to consumers as well as L.A. tastemakers who will be offered a sneak peak at this “social media retail revolution.”
They will have unparalleled access to shop luxury and lifestyle brands at a special discounted rate, with a portion of all proceeds going back to the St. Bernard Project, in support of their work to rebuild homes and lives for Hurricane Katrina Survivors in New Orleans.
The September Urban Sanctuary has been specifically tailored to cater to the upscale ‘jetset’ crowd; offering an inside look at the newest offerings from brands that have raised the bar on fashion, technology, leisure and lifestyle products for the trendy traveler. When asked how his concept for Urban Sanctuary was different, 0Three Media founder Thom Vest remarked “I really wanted to create a comfortable and interactive environment where celebrities, media, brands and tastemakers could co-exist while blurring the lines that have confined not only the retail experience but also that of the traditional gifting suite.”

That queen of chic, Rachel Zoe, style expert par excellence, gave her nod to Exude before a select group of press in the glamorous setting while scrumptious macaroons and champagne went the rounds.
A handful of professional makeup artists were in attendance to demonstrate the application and explain the longevity of the colors to the beauty elite. The line consists of lip crème which is available in 9 colors, including a gorgeous nude color which was tucked inside the gift bag, as well as lip gloss in 5 colors. The clever applicator is shaped like a traditional lipstick, but the color is pumped through a small hole in the top and this is what keeps your lipstick ever camera ready. The exceptional formula, which is enhanced with a smooth hint of mint scent, is lightweight, comfortable and moisturizing.
Exude Lipstick will be offered exclusively at www.exudelipstick.com starting in August 2011 with Rachel Zoe as its brand ambassador. | <urn:uuid:9027731e-c50f-4ba6-adc3-c78b2931e731> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://thedivaonthego.wordpress.com/category/celebrity-stuff/ | 2019-07-22T04:01:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.946175 | 674 |

NEW YORK -- You need to strive for balance.
After more than 20 years of film festivalgoing, you'd think we'd know that. You can see two or three feature-length films in a day, no problem. But do more than four and you're in the land of diminishing returns. Especially at a festival like Tribeca, where the press screenings are centrally located and spread across seven theaters, making it very easy to drift from one film to another without ever surfacing onto Second Avenue.
I try not to drown myself in festival cinema anymore. You need a bout of sunshine, a walk around the block, a vended hot dog or a slice from Joe's Pizza now and then. I tell myself that it's work, after all, and it's the weekend, and that laptops and iPads prevent me from ever being too far out of pocket. I'm not goofing off, I'm working.
That said, I enjoy the Tribeca Film Festival. One reason is because most of the movies that premiere here aren't going to make much of a mark. This isn't Sundance with its intimations of filmdom's future or Toronto's award season preview. Few of these films will be coming to a theater near you. If you want to see them, you'll probably have to stream them. All I want to do is find a couple of gems.
And in the the three days my wife, Karen, and I spent at this year's festival, we found a few. (My Philadelphia-based colleague Piers Marchant was also at this year's festival; we had our usual half-hour hangout. You can read about his festival experience elsewhere in this section.)
There are a couple of narrative features that will probably open in Arkansas later this year, Low Tide and Plus One. I saw Low Tide, an atmospheric coming-0f-age story set on the Jersey shore that reminded me of Jeff Nichols' Mud. There's no release date yet, but it's being distributed by A24, and it seems likely it will have at least some kind of theatrical release later this year.
And Karen saw Plus One, a raunchy comedy starring Maya Erskine (co-creator of the Hulu series PEN15) and Jack Quaid, son of Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid. (Karen's capsule review: "Vulgar, uneven, sometimes funny.") Nevertheless, Plus One won the festival's audience award.
We also saw Burning Cane, which won the festival's Founders Award for Best Narrative Feature. Written and directed by 19-year-old Phillip Michael Youmans(who began making the movie when he was 17), Cane is an evocative and accomplished piece of work that examines a rural Louisiana community through the perspective of a deeply religious woman (spectacular Karen Kaia Livers) who's dealing with an alcoholic son (Dominique McClellan) and a preacher who has lost his faith (Wendell Pierce).
While I understand why Youmans' film won -- and why some people are comparing the baby filmmaker to Faulkner -- there's still an under-baked quality to this piece of cinematic poetry, which feels padded even at 78 minutes. Still, there's no denying the talent Youmans brings to bear, and it's exciting to see it emerge. You'd have to go back to Shotgun Stories (Nichols again) or David Gordon Green's George Washington for a comparable feature debut (though the film also reminded me of RaMell Ross's 2018 documentary Hale County, This Morning, This Evening).
We also lucked out and saw the festival's Best Documentary Feature winner, extraordinary Scheme Birds, a Swedish documentary about young residents of a suburban housing project in a fading Scottish steel town. (I hope I have the opportunity to write more about this film; if it doesn't show up at Hot Springs later this year we'll revisit it when it hits digital platforms.)
As usual, the documentaries at Tribeca outpaced the feature offerings -- after Scheme Birds, the festival's standout was Midge Costin's Making Waves: The Art of Cinematic Sound, which I wrote about last Sunday. Karen caught Slay the Dragon, a "fascinating and disturbing documentary on the past, present and future of gerrymandering." ("Outrage is a likely reaction," she says.)
I enjoyed A Kid From Coney Island, a straightforward sports doc about remarkably interesting former NBA star Stephon Marbury and his journey from schoolboy legend to Chinese sports icon. Both Karen and I caught The Dog Doc, which she writes is "thought-provoking and touching" as it follows "a maverick veterinarian and his team that practice decidedly alternative medicine on canine and feline patients who have exhausted other options."
Maybe the best realized feature we saw was Italian director Michela Occhipinti's Flesh Out (the original Hassanya title translates "The Body of the Bride") which -- Karen writes -- "tells the unsettling story of a modern Mauritanian woman who, despite living in a contemporary culture with women participating in a relatively unrestrictive social environment, succumbs to tradition in gaining a substantial amount of weight (called gavage) to develop what's considered a voluptuous body (a sign of beauty, charm, wealth and social status) before marrying a man chosen by her family."
Along similar lines but skewing more to the conventions of the Hollywood rom-com was Indian director Bhaskar Hazarika's Aamis(Ravening), the festival's first-ever film in the Assamese language. It's about a seemingly happily married doctor who meets a graduate student who educates her on (among other things) the pleasures of eating fresh, wild meat-based delicacies. "Despite uneven performances and some overwrought dialogue, it's not easy to forget," Karen writes.
Others may be a little easier to forget. (And not necessarily because of their quality -- at last year's festival Karen saw the affecting Mary Kay Place vehicle Diane. When it looked like it was opening a few weeks ago she couldn't remember anything other than she's seen it. So I requested a screening link. Then it didn't open anyway. It's available on iTunes and Amazon and other digital platforms.)
So, before memory gives up, here's more of what I saw at this year's Tribeca:
Gully -- a rather tone-deaf "wild-in-the-streets" film about neglected and abused teenagers who go all Clockwork Orange on a dystopian Los Angeles.
Clementine -- a low-key, stylish thriller about a lesbian artist who meets a mysterious young woman while hiding out at her ex's lake house in the immediate aftermath of their breakup.
Picture Character -- an entertaining summer-weight doc about the history and cultural impact of emojis.
A Woman's Work: The NFL's Cheerleader Problem -- an interesting but over-long examination of professional football's troubling labor practices as they apply to various teams' dance and cheerleading squads.
So 10 films, a few parties and three or four schmoozing sessions at the festival's bar, a couple of subway (and bus) rides, and maybe 20 miles walked. Not a bad long weekend. We're already looking forward to next year.

My Phoenix Police colleagues are not murderers or racists. We're also not perfect
Opinion: The Phoenix Police Department has many opportunities to improve. But let's stick to the facts - not theatrics - to drive this debate.
Every day, approximately 2,900 sworn police officers and detectives serve the City of Phoenix. Annually, we respond to close to 900,000 emergency calls – everything from homicides to robberies, houses full of smuggled human beings to shoplifting reports.
No emergency call is predictable; every emergency call has the potential to turn deadly.
In 2019, every emergency call also has the potential to destroy careers and place one officer or an entire police department in the eye of a media and community hurricane.
Such a storm has blown through Phoenix in the aftermath of a shoplifting call on the morning of May 27.
While the investigation into this incident and the subsequent response remains ongoing, some anti-police groups, activists, attorneys and politicians have done what they always do: prejudged the officers involved, adjudged the cops guilty and tarred every Phoenix police officer for the supposed actions of a few.
These points have been lost in the narrative
Absent from this narrative?
- Any possibility that the officers’ response was precipitated by events not caught on amateur cell phone video.
- Any possibility that failure to comply with lawful commands by a police officer escalated this situation.
- Any appetite to wait for the facts to come out, and any restraint in the rush to seize this incident to attack the Phoenix Police Department or collect a huge financial windfall.
The Phoenix Law Enforcement Association has repeatedly urged calm as we await the outcome of the investigation. We haven’t commented on the facts of the May 27 incident because we don’t yet know the facts of this incident.
Predictably, this has been the equivalent of shouting into a hurricane. You go unheard, swallowed by an angry wind.
Here’s what I know for sure about the police department where more than 2,400 of our members work.
We are not murderers.
We are not racists.
We are not an out-of-control paramilitary force preying on residents for our own sick enjoyment.
We are also not perfect.
We can improve, just not this way
Phoenix Police Chief Jeri Williams addresses a dramatic incident that led to a Phoenix family to sue the department for $10 million. Phoenix Police Department
The Phoenix Police Department has many opportunities to improve, including hiring more police officers to fix the understaffing we have been publicly proclaiming for years and establishing deeper, more effective relationships in neighborhoods citywide.
These and other possible improvements require one thing above all: sober, fact-based discussions, not theatrics meant to court headlines.
One idea has been proposed many times before. A civilian oversight board over police remains a bad idea for the reasons we have stated for years, including the complexity of use-of-force incidents and the gray areas of law that govern them.
Already, all officer-involved shootings are investigated by two sets of trained eyes: internally by Professional Standards Bureau investigators and externally by the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.
Civilians already play a significant role in this process. In fact, three civilians sit on the Use of Force Board, responsible for ruling whether an officer who fired a weapon was within policy. Two civilians sit on the Disciplinary Review Board, which recommends discipline for officers who don’t comply with policy, and five civilians comprise the Civil Service Board, which hears disciplinary appeals.
We'll keep serving, despite our critics
Each layer of discipline stands on facts, laws and due process. Each of these elements have been sadly lacking recently as an agenda-driven mob has missed no opportunity to attack Phoenix police officers.
To the many thousands of residents who have expressed your support, we offer thanks. To the attackers we say this: We will continue to serve you no matter what you say about us.
That is the essence of the job we do. We hope it says something valuable about law enforcement in 2019.

Veterans Memorial lost a four-run lead in the seventh inning but then Jesus Rodriguez won it with a two-run home run in the bottom of the seventh to give the Eagles their first UIL baseball playoff win. Len Hayward
Calallen and Flour Bluff completed sweeps of their area-round softball series on Saturday, setting up a third-round matchup between the two rivals.
Calallen, who was one of the three 30-5A tri-champions, swept Edcouch-Elsa by a combined score of 21-5 while Flour Bluff won 8-7 in the first game against Mercedes before dominating 16-5 in the second.
These two squads meeting in the postseason is not unprecedented, as they met in 2016 with Flour Bluff winning a series on the way to an appearance in the Region IV-5A finals.
This season, the Hornets won 6-2 against the Wildcats in their lone district matchup back on March 23.
Sites, dates and times will likely be finalized Sunday or Monday.
Carroll, meanwhile, rolled in its area-round series against Mission Veterans Memorial and will take on Brownsville Veterans Memorial in the regional quarterfinals.
The victory marks the fifth straight season the Tigers have advanced to the regional quarterfinals.
30-5A BASEBALL SWEEPS, BARELY
District 30-5A has a reputation of being one of the toughest baseball districts in the state. This weekend, District 29-5A made sure the four playoff teams had to work for their victories, serving as a reminder that navigating Region IV will be tough.
♦ King swept its series with San Antonio McCollum but held off a furious seventh-inning rally from the Cowboys for a 5-4 win in Game 2 on Saturday for a series sweep.
♦ Veterans Memorial, meanwhile, saw a five-run lead disappear in the seventh as San Antonio Harlandale’s Jeremy Rocha’s grand slam tied the game. But Jesus Rodriguez’s hit that was later ruled a home run in the bottom of the seventh gave the Eagles an 8-6 victory. It was the first playoff victory in program history.
♦ District champion Calallen, meanwhile, struggled to score runs and hit against fourth-place Floresville, but still swept after two solid pitching performances from Hambleton Oliver and Colton Duff in 1-0 and 3-2 wins.
♦ Carroll came back from a 2-0 loss in the opening game against Uvalde on Thursday to sweep Saturday’s games, including holding on for a 7-5 win in Game 3 on Saturday.
“I mean any win is a good win, we are just excited,” Veterans Memorial coach Lee Yeager said. “I don't get caught up in that first win and all that stuff. We are trying to navigate our way through this region and that's really what we are trying to do.”
The playoff games against Rio Grande Valley teams are also wild cards, and it should be some exciting baseball for fans but could give coaches fits.
Robstown infielder Austin Kwiatkowski broke a long-standing Cotton Picker record during this weekend’s sweep of Port Isabel.
Kwiatkowski stole four bases in the two victories against Port Isabel, with his first swipe on Thursday giving him the school record for career stolen bases. Kwiatkowski has 22 stolen bases for the season and 66 for his career, breaking the previous record of 62 set by Buddy Barrera from 1986-88.
Robstown will face former district rival Beeville in the area round.
OTHER STORYLINES FROM THE WEEKEND
- Beeville just keeps racking up the zeroes and the strikeouts. The Trojans swept Rockport-Fulton by a combined score of 16-0 in their area-round series as pitchers Aaliyah Ruiz and Saleen Flores combined for 23 strikeouts.
- All four District 31-3A baseball teams advanced to the area round as Bishop, Banquete and Falfurrias dominated series, winning their six games by a combined score of 93-12.

Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ.
Jesus said to him, You have said so. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.
For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay everyone for what he has done.
But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed.
And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes, and said, Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.
But watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.
But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.
So Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen. I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty
I hope this helped you get more excited about Jesus’ second coming. He is coming again, but we don’t know when, so share Christ today with someone before He returns to judge the world. | <urn:uuid:902a3900-586f-468b-a9eb-47404d5ae22b> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.christianquotes.info/top-quotes/13-important-bible-verse-quotes-about-the-second-coming-of-christ/ | 2019-07-22T03:19:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.962821 | 582 |
Yesterday I sent out an announcement to my work colleagues, letting them know that I am leaving my job in a little over two weeks. This has been hard to manage, given the fact that I turned in my notice on Memorial Day weekend, giving my boss and immediate co-workers two months to make the transition. After almost 9 years working for the same organization, it feels pretty weird to be moving on, but it’s time. (If you care to read my blog post about leaving on my work’s blog, check it out here.) I am ready to take on the next work opportunity, whatever it may be, in addition to starting grad school in about a month. When I told my boss he took it pretty well. He was supportive and I think on some level he knew I would be moving on at some point, but when that was going to be was up in the air.
I felt like I could’ve made this move six months or a year ago but it never seemed like the right time. It still is fairly bad timing, given all the work we are all in the middle of, but that’s just sort of life, isn’t it? A good time for me, which this is, is a bad time for someone else. And obviously, with no crystal ball, we won’t exactly know what’s next, but we are positive that there will be change and a future.
In the past couple of months, I have also discovered a great online store from my friend Jessica. The website, Work is Not a Job, is an inspiring collection of quotes, wood block prints, t-shirts, etc. that express some of my feelings about my life lately. I want all of them wallpapering my house, but I should probably secure another job before that happens. See if any of them resonate with you.

A few years ago, Randy Polk of Randy Polk Designs in Fountain Hills, Arizona, knew he needed to make some changes in his business. “When gold is going up and the economy is going down, you have to find some footing,” he says.
For Polk, that meant exploring alternatives to precious metals. Today, Polk has increased his sales volume and profit margin by often working in stainless steel, crafting avant-garde designs that showcase high-end gemstones. His Cover Girl ring in stainless steel, shown here with diamonds, rubies, opal inlay, and a pearl, is a bestseller.
The ring appeared to Polk’s wife Kitsana in a dream, and she later carved it in wax. She modified the wax to suit the gemstones chosen for the design, then sent it out to be cast in 316L stainless steel.
Polk began cleaning up the casting with a 3M deburring wheel, then switched to a Scotch Brite coarse wheel, later moving to a medium. In six years of refining his techniques for stainless, he’s found that many of the same tools used with gold also work for the harder metal, but it takes more time to achieve the results. After polishing with a green chromium oxide wax impregnated with a compound for stainless steel, he gave the ring to his stone setter, Raul Olivas.
Using the same techniques he would use for gold or platinum but with high speed burs to cut through the harder metal, Olivas carved out the seats for the rubies — two 2.5 mm cabochons on each side — stopping every 20 or 30 seconds to dip the bur in a tiny cup of WD40. “If you don’t use oil, you can burn up the bur,” he says. “At $20 to $50 each, that can get expensive.”
He placed the ruby inside the bezel, then used a flexible hammer on a flex-shaft to push the metal toward the stone, taking care not to hit it. Using a silicon wheel, he cleaned up the metal around the edge, sometimes switching to a 3M Scotch Brite wheel if necessary during the process, which takes three to four times longer than with gold.
Next, he pav? set the 20 0.015 carat diamonds by pre-drilling a starter hole before cutting a seat. “With stainless, cutting the seat can go wrong very fast without this,” he says. Using a round bur the same size as the diamond, he cut the seat and then used a wheel bur to cut metal around it in a square. He then used a knife edge bur to slip under each corner and cut prongs from the metal so he had four at each hole.
After cleaning up the extra metal with small round burs, he bent the metal over with a beading tool. “The secret is to make sure you don’t cut the prongs too thick,” says Olivas. “Leave them the perfect thickness to hold a diamond and still bend. If they’re too thick, the stainless will be hard to bend.”
Once clean up and polishing were complete, Polk attached the pearl. He drilled a hole through it and inserted a piece of stainless steel wire that he then riveted to the base of the opal’s setting, hiding the workings and making the pearl appear to float. He then created the two inlay pieces of Ethiopian opal by cutting off a slice and hand shaping it on diamond wheels to fit the exact size and shape of the bezel before permanently attaching it with epoxy.
To finish, he started with 180-grit diamond sanding wheels and worked up to 3,000-grit on the entire piece. He then moved to a buffing machine and used a cerium oxide pad with water running on it to shine the stones. After applying a final polish with a buffing compound, he riveted the 10 mm pearl to the shank. And Cover Girl — so named because the style has graced the cover of many of Polk’s marketing materials — was complete.
“It’s always captured my imagination to marry the world of inexpensive metals with diamonds and rubies,” says Polk. When he first began selling stainless steel, Polk wasn’t sure the metal would be accepted, but he discovered that adding high-end gemstones made the difference. It is, quite literally, a dream come true. | <urn:uuid:2d790885-aeeb-4ad9-868a-c719de47abed> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.ganoksin.com/article/randy-polk-stainless-steel-ring/ | 2019-07-22T04:02:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.951506 | 939 |
“What is right is not always easy.”
“It’s been my experience that you need others who make you question. If you move forward with your decision after having it challenged and still feel that you have made the right decision, it only reinforces that what you’re doing is right. If you have soldiers who are willing to offer you their counsel, and yet follow even if they don’t completely agree, they are more valuable than men who will follow you blindly.”
Most would like to remember people as they believed them to be, not as they were.
“That’s just it. Even with this power, there are some things you cannot take, and there are some things you cannot do.” | <urn:uuid:53fe8d08-bed5-4a2b-bc8c-4675aca6c9e4> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.goodreads.com/notes/36209209-the-great-betrayal/55788967-tomas-k | 2019-07-22T04:48:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.987934 | 159 |

Nahr el-Bared 298.88.
(photo credit: AP)
Lebanon's army appeared to be gearing up Wednesday to launch a major assault on a Palestinian refugee camp where troops have been battling Islamic militants for weeks.
Witnesses said the army was bringing in heavy reinforcements to the Nahr el-Bared camp area near the northern port city of Tripoli, suggesting that a fresh assault was imminent.
A sniper from inside the camp killed a Lebanese soldier late Tuesday after the Fatah Islam fighters rejected repeated calls to surrender.
Also on Wednesday, three ambulances belonging to the Palestinian Red Crescent society entered the besieged camp to evacuate civilians still trapped inside who wished to leave. The mainstream Palestinian Fatah movement was reported to have called on its guerrillas inside the camp to leave as well.
Samar Kadi, an International Committee of the Red Cross communications officer, said 140 men, women and children, including Fatah members, were evacuated Wednesday in Palestinian Red Crescent vehicles. Kadi said the process was still going on.
Fighting between Fatah Islam and the Lebanese army erupted on May 20. Lebanon's defense minister announced on June 21 that the al-Qaida-inspired militants have been defeated and declared major combat over after soldiers seized militant positions on the edges of the camp.
However, Fatah Islam fighters fled deeper into the camp and continue to engage the army in firefights daily. They have repeatedly ignored calls from the army to surrender, and all mediation efforts to end the military standoff have failed.
The battle to drive the Islamic militants out has led to significant damage to parts of the camp, once home to some 30,000 Palestinian refugees. Only a few thousand remain inside, after most residents fled to the nearby Beddawi refugee camp.
A senior military official said the Lebanese soldier was killed late Tuesday near the Nahr el-Bared camp by Fatah Islam snipers inside the settlement.
His death brought to 86 the number of Lebanese soldiers who have been killed since the fighting erupted, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to give official statements.
Fatah Islam group is believed to be made up of mostly foreign Sunni Muslim fighters, and Lebanon's Western-backed government has accused the group of trying, with Syria's backing, to launch a rebellion in the north of the country and destabilize Lebanon. Syria denies the allegations and has described Fatah Islam as a dangerous terrorist organization.
The fighting at the Palestinian refugee camp has become the worst internal violence since Lebanon's 1975-90 civil war, and is believed to have killed more than 162 people, including 84 soldiers, at least 60 militants and more than 20 civilians.

LHC were commissioned by Cavanna Homes to produce a masterplan along with associated infrastructure on the western edge of Bickington village, approximately two miles from Barnstaple. The site lies adjacent to the existing residential development of Mead Park to the east and more recent development to the north. The scheme, which was awarded Reserved Matters consent in April 2018, provides 61 houses with a range of house types including 2, 3, and 4 bed terraced, semi-detached and detached houses, with 17 dwellings proposed to be affordable.
Landscape, Urban Design & Masterplanning
The built form becomes less dense, feathering into the landscape towards the north and west of the site, and linking with existing hedgerows and new hedgerows to plot and the site boundaries. Existing boundary trees and hedgerows will be retained.
The development proposes a positive pedestrian and cycle connection to Bickington, allowing access to village facilities, bus connections and foot and cycle links to the wider areas including Barnstaple. | <urn:uuid:f1c819ec-d485-40f7-b2e4-b4deaeb73b1a> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.lhc.net/projects/mead-park-masterplan/ | 2019-07-22T03:13:42Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.957971 | 207 |

Something to Talk About
Taking Care of Business
Having written and or produced for some great Portland singers and musicians — including Michael Allen Harrison, Curtis Salgado, Shirley Nanette, Julie Ann Johnson, and Ellen Whyte — I think you are in the same league. I am very picky when it comes to vocalists, but my ‘sista’, as they say in the hood “Girl, you can sang” (and I do mean SANG) … Just keep believing in your dreams — sometimes they really do come true.
They were SIMPLY GREAT!
Linda was always enjoyable, always personable, and always a solid musician!
Linda Lee Michelet is a local, torchy, saloon-style singer who brings a touch of class to her jazz renderings via both her song stylings and her elegant work garb…. Fasten your seatbelt. You won’t believe what comes out of her mouth and what flows from her heart & soul.
The testament to a great performer is getting the music off the stage and to the people. Linda does just that!
Linda Lee takes her listeners on a musical journey rediscovering some of the legendary female singers of American Jazz… She is “Portland’s own honey-voiced siren.”
Thanks Rendezvous for a phenomenal time!
Yesterday—Sunday—I was thrilled to hear the Linda Lee Michelet “Burt Bacharach Tribute” concert—with about 60 others packed into Ivories… I said thrilled, and I meant it…. This was one of the most professional performances I’ve experienced at Ivories, and brought back memories of the great songs of Hal David. Horn solos by Pete Peterson on sax, and Thomas Barber on trumpet, added a jazzy sheen to the sound, and left us wanting more. AND we’re gonna get more, ‘cause Linda is back for Valent…
Michelet brings the vintage tunes to life!
Thank you so much for coming and performing at the First Citizen Award Banquet. You brought an amazing amount of energy to the event, and were so easy to work with. Thank you, thank you, thank you! | <urn:uuid:d5c6336c-4116-49be-a934-eb4ca6d16dbc> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.lindamichelet.com/ | 2019-07-22T03:30:59Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195527474.85/warc/CC-MAIN-20190722030952-20190722052952-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.906633 | 781 |
Don't give up on your small business
Editor's note: This is the second in a three-part series on American entrepreneurship.
Sam: “You know what we’re good at?”
Matt: “Lately, not a whole lot.”
—Conversation between entrepreneurial partners in “Ingenious”
Have you seen the 2009 movie “Ingenious”? Based on a true story, the plot traces the arc of two small-time Arizona entrepreneurs (Jeremy Renner and Dallas Roberts as Sam and Matt) who invent novelty items. In spite of their best efforts at retail marketing and trade shows, none of their products find their way into stores.
The pair experience especially painful roadblocks attempting to market an animated dog watch. As the second hand ticks, a series of photos appear illustrating what the owner’s dog is likely thinking about: a bowl of food, a bone, even a fire hydrant. It’s a clever idea, and pet store owners like it, but they want at least 10 major dog breeds for their customers. Poodle owners won’t buy a dog watch featuring a Labrador, and vice-versa.
Sam and Matt’s watch features only one dog breed. So they borrow $7,000 from Matt’s wife Gina (Ayelet Zurer), a gainfully employed flight attendant, to enhance their product line. But instead of using the money to purchase watches that picture several more types of dogs, they try their hand at a local casino, hoping to parlay the loan into even more money. Of course, they lose everything, and Matt’s wife is so distraught that she moves in with her sister.
RELATED: American family finances devolving
Desperate for customers, the entrepreneurs meet with a direct television marketer, who offers them only a 4 percent return on the sale of their animated dog watch. They turn the deal down. A short time later, they see the same television station marketing their exact watch, with all the major dog breeds for sale. Sam and Matt had failed to ask the marketer to sign a non-disclosure agreement, and an attorney’s letter to the company goes unheeded.
While drowning his sorrows, Matt watches a beer being opened, and simultaneously hears Sam say, “Time for a beer.” Inspired, he develops a prototype for a talking beer opener, a product that even his estranged wife loves. In fact, she is so convinced that “this is the one” that she offers to fund production for the item in exchange for a third of the profits. After some design obstacles are hurdled, 10 million are eventually sold globally.
According to Forbes, eight out of 10 businesses fail within 18 months. So there are nearly as many “fall downs” as there are “start ups.” Competition is fierce, and folks fail for many reasons.
Ultimately, so many successful business owners around us are simply entrepreneurs who refused to give up, sometimes despite repeated setbacks. Believing in a dream, and working endlessly to make it happen, is the core characteristic of every capable entrepreneur.

Quantitative PCR (qPCR) is a highly sensitive, specific and reproducible method to quantify DNA or cDNA present in low amounts in a sample. It has thus become the go-to technique in this area.
It is necessary that its results be always predictably high in accuracy and that it be always easy to run this test, so that it can be used to quantify the expression levels of any set of genes with regard to each other, to detect low levels of genetic material, or to provide absolute measures of NGS libraries.
The Fluent Automation Workstation with its FluentControl™ software are poised to fill this need for a highly replicable and dependable automated system that needs little operator input, for qPCR.
When this is used in tandem with the KAPA SYBR FAST qPCR Kit, the complete process is automated and work proceeds automatically from one process site to another, resulting in high efficiency of amplification for target amplicons at different levels of GC pairing.
The Fluent system has user-friendly features such as the integrated TouchTools™ user interface (UI) and Smart Commands, that make the workflow easy to understand, while still offering an adaptable set up for this use.
This means the user can set specific parameters for each process run, or instead set up basic protocols with simple inputs such as fixed volumes and other variables, which are predefined so as to make it easy and fast to set up the run.
Another advantage of this system is the accurate level of detection of the liquid level. This lets the user refill liquid reagents as and when necessary in response to the prompts at the UI. Since this can be done even during a run, it allows uninterrupted functioning without having to stop because reagent volume is inadequate; it also avoids wastage of liquid volumes and makes sure that reagent use is optimal.
The TouchTools interface helps the user gain an understanding of the process so that it is easy to adapt the functions to individual laboratory requirements. This includes sample number, master mixes, replication of mixes from a menu, or manual input of components (Figure 1).
Other options include the capability to generate a standard curve using the number of dilution points as a variable. The worktable can be set up with ease because of the provision of instructions on-screen, and the availability of a schematic drawing of the whole process throughout the procedure.
Following the loading of all the equipment that is needed on the worktable the operator approves the set up and the run is automatically begun.
Materials and methods
The protocol for the qPCR procedure in this experiment was set up on a Fluent Automation Workstation with an Air FCA™ having eight channels, which uses single-use filtered 50 µl tips from Tecan, and which runs on FluentControl software (version 1.6).
The KAPA Kit was used for the qPCR in compliance with manufacturing instructions and guidelines with regard to using this kit to explore gene expression, as shown in Tables 1 and 2. The first step used genomic DNA (K562) whose initial concentration was known to be about 100 ng/20 µl reaction, and which was then diluted on the Fluent system to 1:5 in a mixture of 10 M Tris-HCl and 0.1% Tween® 20 buffer.
The process was performed in triplicate on a CFX96 Touch™ Real-Time PCR Detection System, while CFX Manager™ Software, version 3.1(both from Bio-Rad) was used to analyze the obtained data. Two housekeeping genes (RPL13a and ActB) that are frequently used in such studies were subjected to this reaction, and the results were converted to a standard curve from about 100 ng going down to 32 ng per 20 µl reaction.
These genes are amplicons of varying GC content of 52.8 and 60.1%, respectively and differing lengths of 231 and 153 base pairs respectively. Both manual and Fluent-based preparations were made to allow for relative performance to be directly assessed. Manual preparations included pipetting of serial dilutions for data on which the standard curve was based.
The setup of the worktable included the following labware:
- A tube rack which would hold 2 ml microcentrifuge tubes containing 2x KAPA SYBR FAST qPCR Master Mix (which has both primers and undiluted standard DNA)
- A trough of 100 ml capacity containing 10 mM Tris-HCl + 0.1% Tween 20 buffer
- Boxes with 50 µl tips (single-use)
- 3 96 PCR plates for holding the sample, standard and reaction agents
Analysis and results
Two methods were used to analyze the data, a single threshold defined by the user and the baseline subtracted curve fit. Using these, the reaction efficiencies, the R2, the slope of the reaction and the y-intercept were all calculated.
The results of these analyses showed that both manual and automated techniques of qPCR fell within desirable limits, namely, 90-110%, without respect of amplicon GC content and length. Since the pipetting was done with adequate precision so as to give consistent volumes in each of the triplicated procedures, the standard curves were reliable as shown in Figure 2.
This showed that automated qPCR is a method able to withstand minor variations in the setup and yield excellent results within about 25 minutes (for a plate with 96 wells) which is considered to be a short time.
Figure 1. TouchTools interface with on-screen instructions for entering the variables (top) and loading the worktable (middle), plus a schematic overview of the set-up (bottom).
Table 2: Cycling protocol
The experimental yield shows that the Fluent system when used with the KAPA Kit generates a simple automated workflow and process for reliable and reproducible results with qPCR. This was so when the amplicons were different with regard to the GC content, and required little user input.
The advantages include the easy-to-use TouchTools UI which also imparts ease of adaptation, and lets the platform be modified by the user to fit specific situations with respect to different workflows. Thus, operators need not be trained for long to use this platform efficiently. In addition, the MCA arm may be used to pipette through 96 or 384 channels, to further speed up the run if necessary.
Figure 2. Automated vs. manual PCR set-up. Amplification plots for ActB (A) and RPL13a (B) genes obtained after qPCR reaction prepared either on the liquid handling platform (blue) or by manual pipetting (green) show minimal difference. The melting curve profiles (inset in the amplification plots, where y axis: –d(RFU)/dT and x axis: temperature in °C) show a single peak indicating specific amplification of one PCR product. Standard curves generated for ActB (C) and RPL13a (D) in the automated workflow achieved high efficiencies – 95 and 107%, respectively – compared to 97 and 95% using the manual workflow (not shown).
Implementation of the KAPA SYBR FAST qPCR Kit was achieved through close collaboration with Marsha McMakin, Sr. NGS Automation Engineer at Roche.

Two weeks ago I took a look at the real estate market in Edmonton, and there were some very clear month-to-month seasonal improvements moving into spring. Just recently, the Canadian dollar rose back up to .77 cents, which is an all-time high for the year, inflation rate has slowed to 1.7%, and oil is trading back above $40, it's highest since early December. All and all, 2016 is shaping up to be a good year, and a great time to buy a home! So, for your convenience, here's a quick glimpse of the city, and the current homes I have listed, all of which you can view on my featured listings, or by hovering over each star, and then clicking the link.

Battleships type "Marat". Modernization of the main fire
Soviet battleships between the wars. it is well Known that of the three remaining in the ranks of the Soviet battleship "Marat" has received minimal upgrades, and "Paris commune" — to the greatest extent. Consider changes to the combat potential of the main caliber the ships of this type.
Main caliber. What happened
The Main armament of the battleships was 12*305-mm guns of the sample in 1907, which had a barrel length of 52 calibre, and placed in four treforedling towers. The maximum elevation of these plants was 25 deg., and the maximum firing range of 470,9 kg. the shell fired with an initial velocity of 762 m/sec, 132 cable lengths. The passport rate was 1.8 RDS/min, while loading was performed in the range of angles of elevation from -5 to +15 degrees.
The Frontal and lateral armor plates of the towers had a thickness of 203 mm, back side (to counterbalance) 305 mm, the roof 76 mm Barbettes to the upper deck, and slightly below it was protected with 150 mm armor, then only 75 mm, right 1st and 4th towers had gain in nose and stern to 125 and 200 mm, respectively.
To 305 mm/52 guns mod. 1907, specialists of pre-revolutionary Russia have created 3 types of combat ammunition: armor piercing, high explosive and polibromirovannyie. They called the shells of a sample of 1911, had a lot 470,9 kg, initial velocity of 762 m/sec, and range in elevation guns 25 deg. 132 cable lengths. They differed in length – 1 191, 1 and 530 1 491 mm, content of explosive substance of 12.96, and 58,8 61,5 kg, respectively. While armor-piercing shell had a fuse KTMB and probanbly and explosive – MRD arr. 1913 was also a practical explosive charge 470,9 kg, representing a steel bar, that is, not containing any explosives or detonator.
As for the fire control system, it's on the battleships of the "Sevastopol" was extremely confusing. The ships were 2 rangefinder with a base of 6 m, located on the fore and aft superstructures, and providing two Central posts, which, among other things, contained the controls shooting. The towers of the battleships range finder was not completed.
But the devices fire control (STS) was a perfect "grab-bag", it's what it is. Initially, the battleships type "Sevastopol" was supposed to put the latest STS, which were developed by Erikson. This, incidentally, does not mean that the order is "gone" abroad, because the development led the Russian branch of this company and Russian experts who worked in it. Alas, they failed in time, and the time of completion of the "Sebastopol" of the fire control system Erickson was not yet ready.
As a result, the battleships installed the good old system of "Geissler K" mod. 1910 unfortunately, for all its virtues, is considered "Geisler and" full-fledged LMS is still impossible, for several serious reasons:
1. STS "Geisler and" has not developed independently of an amendment to the traverse, that is, the anticipation for the shooting, but the Vizir did not included in its composition.
2. The CCP independently calculate the elevation angle, but as necessary data to calculate required rate of change of distance (VIR) and the amount of change of bearing (VIP). That is, the officers controlling the artillery fire were to determine the parameters of the target and own ship (course, speed, distance, bearing) and calculate VIR and VIP manually.
However, due to the unwillingness of FCS Erickson, the Navy purchased the British Pollena devices, which represent the automatic calculation of VIR and VIP, that is, in fact, eradicated the main drawback of "Heusler". Device Pollena successfully integrated with the "Geissler K", and further the resulting LMS was supplemented by a separate instrument Erickson. As a result, by 1917, all four of the Baltic battleships were quite modern by the standards of the First world war centralized fire control system of the main fire. For its functionality it is, apparently, a few lost British LMS and was about on par with the German, but the German ships were superior to the "Sebastopol" in the amount of rangefinders.
Upgrade tower systems
Strangely enough, but the amount of upgrades your guns and towers of the Soviet battleships are not quite understandable, since the sources have important discrepancies. It is known that 305 mm/52 guns of all battleships got planirovanie trunks instead of stapled, which significantly simplified the procedure for their replacement. Also more or less clear, the amount of rework tower systems on the battleship "Paris commune".
With these units spent the most work of all three of the battleships, only the tower "Paris commune" was the increased elevation angle up to 40 deg. causing the firing range staff 470,9 kg projectile increased by 29 cable length, i.e. from 132 to 161 cable lengths. Increased the rate for this tower "transferred" to a fixed loading angle (+6 degrees), which significantly increase the capacity of the actuators vertical guidance, the loading, and submission. As a result, the rate has increased with the "passport" of 1.8 to 2.2 CA./min. price for this was the increase in the weight of the rotating part of the turret 4 tons and the rejection reserve system loading guns.
But with the towers, "Marat" and "October revolution", alas, nothing is clear. A. Vasiliev in his works devoted to the modernization of battleships, points:
"In 1928-1931 years managed to upgrade the 305-mm turret MK-3-12only in terms of rate: when the angles of elevation of the guns from -3 degrees. to +15 deg. it reached 3 CA./min, and at large angles (up to the maximum of 25°) up 2 CA./min (instead of 1.8 at all angles)".
But Titushkin S. I. and L. I. Amirkhanov in his work "the Main caliber of the battleships" about any of these upgrades, "Marat" and "October revolution" is not misleading, but rather indicate that their rate has remained the same. The author of this article, one can only assume that the right still Titushkin S. I. and L. I. Amirkhanov, since their work is more specialized in the field of artillery, than the works of A. Vasiliev. Perhaps there was a mix-up between what I wanted to do and what is actually done. The fact that S. I. Titushkin and L. I. Amirkhanov pointed out that such a modernization, bringing the rate to 3 CA./min planned to produce for the towers of a battleship Frunze, when there was still plans for its restructuring in the battlecruiser. I must say that 2 turret of the battleship was subsequently converted by the example of "Paris commune", but it happened after the war, when they were set on concrete blocks-battery 30 at Sevastopol.
The post-war photos restored battery # 30
Thus, range of "Marat" and "October revolution," remained absolutely certain – 132 cable lengths, and apparently, the rate has remained the same, that is, at the level of 1.8 inv./min.
The Armor protection towers, all three of the battleships was only increasing – the thickness of the turret roof was increased from 76 to 152 mm, otherwise the thickness of the armor remained the same.
As for the fire control systems, here, too, everything is not quite obvious. Let's start with rangefinders: it is very important that the number of rangefinders, providing work for the MSA of the main fire increased significantly, because all the towers of all three battleships had the range finders. While Titushkin S. I. and L. I. Amirkhanov claim that the towers "Marat" established Italian rangefinders "OG" with a base of 8 m, developed by Galileo in the tower "October revolution" also got an 8-foot rangefinders, but a particular brand: DM-8 of the company "Zeiss". Sorry, dear authors did not report the rangefinders installed in the turret of the battleship "Paris commune", although the photographs and drawings of the ship clearly shows their presence.
In this photo of "October revolution" turret rangefinders are good
At the same time, A. V. Platonov, in his "Encyclopedia of surface ships" gives completely different data: that "Marat" and "October revolution" was installed rangefinders "Zeiss", and Italian – the "Paris commune". But, at least, the authors agree that all these rangefinders had a base of 8 meters.
However, of course, these rangefinders were of secondary importance, because, firstly, they were at relatively low altitude over the sea level and the horizon was not too large. And secondly, they were used as an additional clarifying tool to the equipment of the command-ranging posts (KDP) installed on the battleships.
All sources agree that the "October revolution" and "Paris commune" for maintenance of the main fire was set on two KDP-6 B-22, but that was put on the "Marat", there is no clarity. Oddly enough, but Titushkin S. I. and L. I. Amirkhanov argue that the battleship got 2 of KDP of the same modification, but it's obvious a typo, because in all the photos of the battleship we see only one such KDP.
At the same time, a number of authors, including A. V. Platonov, reported that "Marat", although received a KDP-6, but an earlier modification B-8. The main differences B-8 B-22 was the lack of viewfinder Central pickup and telescopic tubes gunners post. Accordingly, the weight of KDP-6 B-8 was 2.5 tons, and the calculation – 2 people less than the KDP-6 B-22.
But the most "funny" discrepancy in the sources is the number of rangefinders in one of KDP-6, no matter what modifications. Titushkin S. I. and L. I. Amirkhanov indicate that this KDP were completed two rangefinders, with a base of 6 m brand DM-6. But A. V. Platonov indicates the presence of only one such rangefinder. Who is right – difficult to say, because the author of this article is not a specialist in fire control systems, and the study of photographs is almost nothing. Some photos seem to bear that rangefinders it is two, not one.
But on the other hand, from the drawings it follows that the second "rangefinder" is not a rangefinder at all, but something more short.
Still only one KDP for the main caliber "Marat" looked clearly not enough, therefore, almost all sources indicate that he was going to put open another meter to 8-meter base. Interestingly, A. V. Platonov, in one of his monographs claimed that the meter was still installed on the aft superstructure, but the author never managed to find a photo of "Marat", which would confirm this statement. I must say that the device is of such dimensions are extremely noticeable, and its absence in the photo obviously shows that the installation of this meter was only an intention and never embodied "in the metal". However, in later his works of A. V. Platonov already notwrote about this rangefinder on the "Marat".
As for the fire control instruments, everything is much easier. On the part of the main caliber "Marat" was exactly that he had established during the First world war, that is a "hodgepodge" of devices "Geissler K", Erickson and Pollen. Thus, the battleship, of course, the beginning of the great Patriotic war had a Central aiming of the guns of the main caliber, but modern to call it. Of course, in quality,, MSA, "Marat" far behind hardware that was installed in contemporary battleships of the world, but to consider him completely incompetent after all not to be. As the example of the British light cruisers of the "Leander," which had LMS not even on the level of the 1st world war, and worse because it was deliberately simplified for the sake of economy: however, these the British cruiser was involved in many combat episodes and reached acceptable accuracy for their 152-mm guns.
Some things were better with the Central fire of the battleship "October revolution" and "Paris commune" because they had better machines akur. What are these devices?
Starting in 1925, the Soviet Union developed the so-called unit of the direct course APCN, who planned to install as part of the FCS on all large ships, new construction (when it comes to it), and passing upgrades. This device was supposed to automatically calculate sight and the rear sight, thus completely freeing the Manager from artillery firing tables and other manual work and calculations. The work was difficult and slow, so the management of the fleet in 1928, insisted on the parallel acquisition of the British appliance akur company "Vickers" and simultaneous data transmission of automatic shooting and teams of the American company "Sperry".
However, when the said sets of devices have come into our possession, it turned out that they do not meet the expectations of our professionals. So, akur was too large error in determining the course angle, which is 16 thousandths range, and the transfer of "Sperry" did not work. The result was the following specialists of the Elektropribor plant, engaged in the development APCN, had to "retrain" for revision of akur and synchronous transmission "Sperry" — the latter was especially good that the same Soviet product was in the final stages of development. In the end, the developers, using a number of solutions APCN, managed to achieve the desired accuracy settings from akur to bring into workable condition and to combine it with simultaneous transfer of "Sperry" and output to a workable QMS, significantly superior to the combination of devices "Heusler", Pollena and Erickson, which was equipped with dreadnoughts type "Sevastopol". Such akur got "Paris commune" and "October revolution".
Of Course, akur steel large step forward in comparison with the LMS of the era of the 1st world war, but the beginning of the great Patriotic they are largely obsolete. Work on the creation of pus in the USSR continued: for the leaders of the "Leningrad" was acquired by control instruments fire company "Galileo", which had a number of features not available for akur. For example, akur provided a fire main fire method of observing signs of fall, or so-called "fork", when the main gunner had been shot which flight, and then undershoot, and then began "half" the distance. But that was all, but the STS "Lightning" and "Lightning ATS" developed on the basis of Italian LMS, could use all three known at the time method of artillery fire control. Method of observation of the signs of the fall described above and in addition, a new CCP was able to use the method the measured deviation when the MTC rangefinders measure the distance from the target ship until it bursts from the falling shells, and the method of the measured distances when the rangefinder determined distance from the leading fire vehicle to burst his shells, and compared with the calculated data on the position of the target ship.
"Lightning" and "Lightning ATS" was installed on cruisers project 26 and 26-bis respectively, and, in General, we can say that FCS-caliber cruisers "Kirov" and "Maxim Gorky" considerably surpassed in its effectiveness akur installed on Russian battleships, not to mention the "Geissler"/Pollene/Erickson on the "Marat".
As for the ammunition to 305-mm guns, in the pre-war USSR for 305-mm guns were developed for different types of ammunition, however, was adopted only one.
The First "slug" direction was the creation of the modified armor-piercing and explosive shells of an improved form. They had to have the same mass as the projectiles mod. 1911, that is 470,9 kg, but the range they would have to grow by 15-17%, and penetration – improves, and the effect had to be the most zamenim at distances of over 75 cable length. It is not entirely clear at what stage stopped this work: the fact that his qualities in full measure they could implement only in guns, which was planned to arm heavy cruisers of the "Kronstadt". The latter had to report the initial velocity 470,9 kg projectile 900 m/sec. in that time, 305 mm/52 gun mod. 1907, which was armed battleships of the type"Sevastopol" is only 762 m/sec. As you know, the 305-mm artillery with such a record performance to create the war and failed, respectively, should not be surprised by lack of ammunition. However, we cannot exclude that the creation of new shells was stopped because of some other structural or technological difficulties.
The Second type of munitions, the development of which looked extremely promising, became "probanbly shell mod. 1915 drawing No. 182". In fact, this shell was created in 1915, and in 1932, and experimented with him until 1937 It was a "superheavy" 305-mm ammunition, whose mass is made of 581,4 kg. of Course, to shoot this projectile was only possible with an initial velocity, lower to 690-700 km/h, but due to better energy conservation and range of this ammunition exceeds that of the 470,9 kg shells by 3%.
However, the biggest "bonus" of increased mass became extremely high armor penetration. If 470,9 kg, according to Soviet calculations (here and further on armor penetration provides data Titushkin S. I. and L. I. Amirkhanov) run 100 cables 207 mm vertical armor, the 581,4 kg projectile 90 cable length could penetrate 330 mm armor plates.
Unfortunately, the arms of the "super-heavy" shell was not adopted: there were problems with the accuracy of fire, besides, ammunition was too long and the designers are not able to provide it with longitudinal strength – he is often destroyed when breaking the armor of a target. In addition, podanie and charging mechanisms of battleships type "Sevastopol" was not designed to work with ammunition for such a mass.
The result of all this work on the "superheavy" shells were suspended, a pity. Interestingly, the Americans, returning to the 305-mm caliber on the "large cruisers", type "Alaska", used the same ammunition as the main. Their guns fired armor-piercing 516,5 kg shells with an initial velocity of 762 m/sec. when the vertical aiming angle of 45 degree. provided range 193 cable lengths and punched 323 mm armor at a distance of 100 cable length.
And, finally, the third direction of improvement of ammunition to domestic 305 mm/52 guns was the creation of "high-explosive artillery shell mod. 1928". This weapon had a mass of only 314 kg, but its initial speed was 920 or 950 km/h (unfortunately, somewhere in Titushkin S. I. and L. I. Amirkhanov crept typo, as they give both values). The increase on the firing range was enormous – if the upgraded tower installation "Paris commune" was able to send in flight 470,9 kg projectile at a distance of 161 cable length, it is lightweight, 314-pound – 241 cable length, that is, in fact, one and a half times further. But when shooting with elevation angle of 25 deg., which remained the limit for battleships "Marat" and "October revolution", the firing range was increased from 132 to 186 cables.
The weight of the explosive in a new shell, almost not inferior to ordinary, 470,9 kg high-explosive ammunition, and equaled 55.2 kg to 58.8 kg. the Only parameter that lightweight shells inferior to that of conventional munitions, was the dispersion, which is at 314 kg shells were quite large. But this deficiency was not considered critical, as these shells were intended for bombardment of coastal area targets. "High explosive artillery shells mod. 1928" was adopted in 1939, thus becoming the single projectile of this caliber created in the prewar Soviet Union.
The author ends the description of the artillery of the main caliber of the modernized battleships "Marat", "October revolution" and "Paris commune" and proceeds to mine caliber.

Understanding the Risk Factors for Nasal Polyps
We have already looked at one line of research this week about nasal polyps; here’s another good study. Researchers have been investigating the causes of nasal polyps and found some strong correlations, some of which could guide ENTs to offer better health management overall.
As it turns out, multivariate analysis has determined that body weight, or BMI, is strongly correlated with a condition known as chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), suggesting that obesity can play a powerful role in degrading the mucosa:
Further, researchers observed that CRSwNP was associated with age (OR = 1.03; 95% CI, 1.02-1.04), obesity (OR = 1.46; 95% CI, 1.16-1.84) and education level (OR = 1.40; 95% CI, 1.02-1.92), according to the abstract.
In English, that means that chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps is tightly associated with obesity. (Other correlations, such as education, are merely a proxy for financial health and access to healthcare.)
The moral is this: obesity leads to misery, not just in cardiovascular health but in sinus health as well.

Simple wallet cases don’t need to be expensive. CHOETECH’s PU / synthetic leather wallet case for the Galaxy Note 7 proves this as it comes in at just $8.49 from Amazon. If black isn’t for you, other colors are available.
With space for up to 2 cards, notes and bills of cash, this case is best suited for those who occasionally wish to leave their larger wallets behind for quick trips to the store (among other places). Its slim enough to fit well into your hand, and will provide a minimal level of protection.
The case uses multiple materials: PU / synthetic leather for the outside of the front flap and back case, a polycarbonate shell where your phone sits, and soft suede for the interior. You have complete access to everything that the Note 7 has at the bottom, the power button, and the top microphone. Moving to the back, you’ll find a well-centered and sizeable cutout for the rear-facing camera. As the volume buttons are covered up from the spine of the case, they can only reliably be accessed when the front cover is opened, but this is par for the course when it comes to wallet-style cases.
The card slots are a bit tight at first, but do loosen up a tad with time. As mentioned above, if you would rather insert notes or cash into the slot, you can completely do so. One unfortunate thing about this case is that the front cover actually lifts up when the slots are filled. When empty, the front cover lies flat. What would solve this is a clasp mechanism of some sort, which this case obviously lacks.
However, given the low price of just $8.49, CHOETECH’s offering is one that is certainly worth taking a look at.

Here’s Emery’s first self written letter to Santa Clause. Ashley helped her spell the word but this was Emery’s self formed sentence.
We were painting before the letter and Emery just loved painted nails!
Yesterday we took Emery to Stone Mountain Park, just south east of Atlanta. We’ve been there many times already but not with Emery. At the center of the park is a very very large rock. So big that it’s really a mountain that is hike-able. Surrounding the large mountain are parks, lakes and recreation buildings. It’s a great park and is a tourist spot in Atlanta.
We convinced Emery that she had to walk up all by herself. We told her how her friend Kate had done it all by herself. This seemed to have work because while she did complain a bit she seemed pretty game to walk up all by herself. Of course the minute we got on the trail Emery had to go “potty”. We managed to have her hold it for 30 minutes. However this didn’t stop her from declaring every minute outloud that she “really needed to go potty”. The mountain hike was quite crowded and lots of people chuckled as they embarrassingly heard her remarks.
The hike managed to become very steep in some places and we help Emery’s hand. Emery was very brave overall and was pretty determined to make the climb. In the end we got all the way to the top without holding her one bit.
Ashley and I have been dating for 15 years! It’s amazing how much time has past. We like to celebrate this special day because it really was a very special milestone for us where we formally decided at that time to be girlfriend-boyfriend.
We went out to dinner to Osteria Matonne, an italian restaurant near our house. Since Emery has not been very receptive to baby sitters, we brought Emery with us and we all had a great time. 🙂 | <urn:uuid:09e4771e-f760-49ef-a8ba-697837cf0a2f> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://greatestfanofyourlife.com/2014/11/ | 2019-07-23T11:04:13Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195529276.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20190723105707-20190723131707-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.987272 | 426 |

Today thanks to new technologies and modern solutions, to create a traditional solid floor using the plank is very fast and easy. The most popular and available material to produce a floor plank is pine, more expensive - larch.
The properties of this kind of material can be compared with parquet. The floor plank is the best compromise to save money and the quality and durability of the finish.
The floor plank is dried carefully in kiln, and that subsequently ensures its durability.
Planks are provided with a spine-and-groove locking system on all its ridges, which greatly facilitates installation.
If you decide to create a reliable and durable floor in the room with high humidity, the larch is the best solution. Such a floor will be resistant to fungus and insects. In addition, the larch is able to maintain its original shape even at high temperatures.
The advantages of the floor plank are:
- durability, tested and confirmed by time;
- attractive appearance;
- environmentally friendly;
- easy installation. | <urn:uuid:ed11de30-5b1a-4353-81c2-261a9d013744> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | http://mosanka-timber.com/index.php/en/products/molded/floor-plank | 2019-07-23T10:58:44Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195529276.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20190723105707-20190723131707-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.936783 | 211 |
How to prevent any data connections/transmissions over mobile phone provider
I have a Sony Xperia Z1 compact D5503 Build 14.6.A.1.236.
I do not want to have any network traffic(TCP/IP) going via mobile network 2G, 3G and/or 4G. For this I deactivated whole month January 2016 "Mobile data transmission" and restricted completely all "background data transmissions" in Android.
Despite this my mobile phone provider has listed several connections and transmissions of data 20KB each for January 2016.

The soul doesn’t separate, the ego does.
The soul doesn’t need security, the ego does.
Every form of religion could support the ego and focus on (a false sense) of security, through means of control, separation, and discrimination to the point of violence - which feeds fear and therefore more followers seeking its “comfort.” I fear many religions do.
Every form of religion could support the soul and focus on understanding our ego’s desires and our soul’s desires. They can teach us to listen to the soul, to seek the collective soul, to use our ego’s triggers as a way to uncover our longings to understand, love, and connect to the point of unity - which feeds compassion and therefore more followers seeking its “comfort.” I fear many religions don't.

Would invite coastal towns to put development in locations vulnerable to flooding, sea-level rise
TRENTON, NJ - At its July 15 meeting the State Planning Commission is scheduled to vote to extend "center" designations for another three years, a move New Jersey Future opposed for coastal and other vulnerable centers.
Extending the designation signals state support for future development at higher intensities than without the designation, and gives towns with such designations access to greater funding from state departments such as the Economic Development Authority and its job creation and development incentives.
However, in centers located in areas vulnerable to increased flooding due to sea level rise -- including virtually all coastal centers -- this extension invites towns to put new growth in risky locations, with greater potential for damage and higher post-disaster recovery and repair costs.
New Jersey Future had recommended that centers in coastal areas have their designations extended for only one year, with a requirement that during that time the centers' vulnerability be assessed and their boundaries adjusted accordingly to minimize exposure to natural hazard-related risk. At the end of that year, these revised centers would be submitted for approval.
"It's understandable that towns want to preserve their center designations, with the attendant potential for more development and ratables, but to do so in coastal areas without requiring a robust risk assessment means those towns are just putting more people and property at risk," said New Jersey Future Executive Director Peter Kasabach. "The potential cost to those towns of sensible adjustments to center boundaries and other resiliency measures is a tiny fraction of the losses they now stand to suffer in the next Hurricane Sandy."

Here are the references I mentioned this morning:
1. The plan for giving your kids a salary.
2. For those of you concerned about the plan for the Boy Scouts. here's what I found:
Now, it took a lot of time to find and read about 10 different articles to learn all of the elements of the plan to offer girls the path to Eagle Scout and to participate in the kind of activities that may not be offered through the Girl Scouts.
Let's take a look as to what is going on already.
- Girls have been participating in Cub Scouts for years, unofficially. Girls have been participating in 4 programs: Venturing and Sea Scouting which are geared toward outdoor activities, Exploring which is a career-oriented mentoring program and STEM which offers opportunities for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. This is not a path toward Eagle Scout.
- Moms have been Den mothers for decades.
- The Boy Scouts leadership took the results of two nationwide surveys, listened to the lobbying of parents and direct pleas from girls to include them before they made the decision to go forward with the plan.
- Unlike comments made by some media personalities, this is not a decision based on "creeping political correctness". The girls want it, that's all. The board of the Boy Scouts is described as being "conservative traditionalists".
- Boy Scouts began to include gay members in 2013, gay leaders in 2015 and are now allowing members to "self-identify" as male and can join in.
Here's how the Plan will work:
In 2018, the girls will be allowed to join the Cub Scouts. On a den-by-den basis, it will be decided if the individual dens will be male only, female only or co-ed.
In 2019, older girls will have access to the path for Eagle Scouts.
There will be no co-ed Boy Scouts troops for girls 11 to 18 years.
There will be no overnight co-ed camp-outs.
The bottom line is "local control and parallel programs". That's it.
This information was taken from the Show Notes from 10-22-17 when the changes were revealed.
3. Here's the link to the Meghan Markle-Prince Harry coloring book.
4. Here's the link for the Kardia-Mobile, the FDA-clear portable EKG device.
5. Here's the link for the tiny sensor that goes on your teeth to track what you eat. Uh oh, busted!
6. And we thought that the only thing we had to worry about in terms of vape pens was what the zillion chemicals that are in them can do to our bodies? Nope, they're now known to cause fires because they can EXPLODE!!! Here's what a fire chief is saying.
7. Those whacky teens are at it again. Here's what they're doing now. The Deodorant Challenge. Oh my stars. If you search on YouTube, you'll see quite a few horrifying films of this new trend.

A new clinical guide summarizes the evidence regarding the effects of calcium in reducing the risk of osteoporosis after the menopause. Bone health is especially important for the elderly.
Osteoporosis is common and affects 1 in 3 women. Calcium is vital for strong healthy bones and worldwide scientific societies have issued guidance about the daily requirements from childhood to old age. The European Menopause and Andropause Society (EMAS) has issued a new clinical guide with the aim of raising awareness of the importance of calcium in lowering the risk of osteoporosis.
The recommended daily intake of calcium after menopause varies between 700 and 1,200 mg, depending on the endorsing society. It is uncertain whether excessive intake can cause harm. Some epidemiological studies have raised concern about possible cardiovascular risk, dementia or even, paradoxically, fracture.
Calcium may be obtained from food or supplements containing calcium salts. Most people should be able to get enough of it through healthy eating, but this is not always the case. Diets in Southern European countries have less dairy products than in Northern countries. Data from the NHANES(National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) database in the USA showed that less than one third of women aged 9 to 71 consumed enough of it in their diet. Supplements are poorly tolerated and therefore not usually taken long term. Another reason for concern are the rates of over prescription of supplements above the recommended upper level of 2,000 mg/day. For example, one study found that 29% of supplements were over prescribed.
Since our bodies don’t manufacture minerals, we have to get them from plants grown in mineral-rich soil or from the organ meats of animals that eat such plants. (Most of the mineral waters we swill contain only negligible amounts of minerals, so they don’t add much to our daily intake.) While there is some debate about whether our soil is as mineral-rich as it once was, there is no question that Americans don’t eat enough vegetables and grains to meet our basic mineral needs, says nutrition expert Elizabeth Somer, author of numerous books including Nutrition for Women: The Complete Guide. “If we were eating the eight to ten daily servings of broccoli, blueberries, and deep-colored nutritious foods we’re supposed to, we’d be fine,” she says. “But 99 out of 100 of us don’t meet the minimum standards.”
EMAS confirms that calcium is an essential part of the diet from childhood to old age, and that an approximate assessment of intake should be part of routine health checks. Women need to be more calcium-aware and mindful of calcium-rich foods. But more is not better, and women should be warned that intakes above the recommended levels may be useless or, although still debated, may cause harm.

Post from the past.
This is a post from July of 2008.
It is about my lucky number 3 and it still rings true for me today so I thought I would post it again. Also I am so very glad that it is not July 2008 and that year is far behind me.
Why is it that when we finally figure things out it is way too late to apply the learning? Why is life like this? Like high school, you look back and you can see what was really important and that you wasted all your time worrying about all the stupid, unimportant stuff. Or like being single, all that you want to do when you are single is find someone that you can make a commitment with or get married to and then when that happens you realize that you are happy but that being single wasn't so bad and you wish you would have enjoyed it a bit more. Or when you are young and all you want to be is older than you are and then you get older and all you want to be is younger than you are.
My wish is that if we really work hard during this life and we learn from our mistakes we will get another life and be able to apply all these things that we have learned. Otherwise, what is the point. The thing I dread is that this is my second life which would mean I am a very slow learner and if that is the case I hope we get three.
Three is my lucky number.

There are many things to know about artificial grass blade shapes. The shapes will definitely influence your turf’s durability, sheen, and softness. People generally want their turf to be durable, although some products are more appropriate for high traffic areas. For example, many peoples are turned off by turf that looks too shiny. The sheen of a turf product is generally influenced by its blade width. Some people are looking for turf specifically for landscaping purposes, such as our Natural Fescue product. But in order to understand blade types, we should look at certain products, such as our W Fescue Pro.
Generally speaking, synthetic lawns are far more durable than a natural lawn. As many people know, natural lawns are subject to damage from pets, or heavy foot traffic, or the changing seasons. With synthetic grass, these are not issues, but there are some other things to consider. Despite this, artificial grass can be damaged from caustic chemicals, severe heat, sharp objects, and everything else that can damage plastic and polyethylene.
Installing a synthetic lawn is definitely a large investment. If you want your investment to be worth it, you’ll need to know how to maintain and protect your turf. Here are the things that you’ll want to avoid to maintain your synthetic lawn.
Best Uses for Synthetic Grass: Honing your creativity
At Artificial Turf Express, we are always astounded at all of the creative uses for synthetic grass. We often get to see people apply their creativity into their turf installations, and we have assisted customers with many projects. Here are some of the coolest uses for synthetic grass that we’ve seen!
Drought Tolerant Artificial Grass’ New Legislation
California’s historic drought has continued for many years now, and many legislators are now looking into updating old laws regarding artificial turf. Historically, installing artificial turf was not always easy for homeowners. There were many provisions surrounding the installation process, and some locales were flat-out banning artificial turf. Metropolitan code, HOAs, as well as various other ways of oversight have protected homeowners. Recently, California State Assembly member Mike Gatto (D-Glendale) has been pushing for drought solutions and water savings. Through Assembly Bill 1164, which declares a state of urgency for the drought, Gatto has sought solutions to this potentially devastating problem. If passed, AB 1164 would forbid a city, or region from passing or implementing any type of statute that forbids the setup of artificial turf on property.
The 3 Major Environmental Benefits of Synthetic Grass
There are many environmental benefits of synthetic grass. Not only does it reduce your landscape maintenance costs, but it also benefits our environment. Let’s look at some of the ways:
UC Davis Medical Center Installs Synthetic Grass
In our state’s capital, the UC Davis Medical Center installs synthetic grass. They selected artificial grass as the centerpiece of their massive aesthetic renovations to their main campus in Sacramento. The work was done by Heavenly Greens, another artificial turf installation company in San Jose. The entirety of the turf installation is approximately 7,500 square feet, and includes their main traffic circle, and two other small lawn areas in front of their lobby.
4 Benefits of Backyard Artificial Grass
People with pools at home find many the advantages of getting backyard artificial grass installed. They find that artificial grass is very versatile and can be used on outdoor patios, as well as decks, and even for above ground swimming pools. Standard lawn systems dry out rapidly, and are tarnished and stained by chlorine or other swimming pool chemicals.
Climatologists predict a strong El Niño this winter and some Californians are hailing it as the end of the drought – and of their water conservation efforts. However, it’s too soon to celebrate just yet, and here’s why:
Last month we spotlighted some stars nervy enough to waste water by making sure their resort-like back yards were the model of perfection. By examining the way some Beverly Hills stars kept their lawn plush and their pools filled, you would never know California was suffering the worst drought on record in 60 years.
Artificial Turf Express would like to recognize that not all stars dismiss the reality that we are in a severe drought and need to converse water. Some celebrities have gone to great extremes and shared some practical solutions in their crusade to save water. Here are some of our favorite examples of stars saving water: | <urn:uuid:c90a1129-9224-41a6-99d0-0e4bfecd2064> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://artificialturfexpress.com/blog/tag/california-drought/ | 2019-07-23T11:06:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195529276.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20190723105707-20190723131707-00158.warc.gz | en | 0.968148 | 919 |
