From startup to superpower. That might be the best description for the Alabama softball program, which is celebrating its 20th season in existence.
The program welcomed many former players and team members back to Tuscaloosa over the weekend to watch the series win over Kentucky. More than 10,000 fans made it out to Rhoads Stadium for the three-game series, where they showed a 20th anniversary video that traces the team's growth and massive success over two decades.
With a 41-9 record and a top-10 ranking this year, Alabama softball hopes to add to that tradition of excellence.
If you haven't seen the video, here it is. This will give you a great idea of how fast the program has grown.

Jana Rowland, Western Technology Center biomedical academy coordinator and instructor, recently received the Outstanding Instructor of Non-Traditional Students Award from the Oklahoma Career and Technical Educators Equity Council.
One of 25 people honored at the 20th annual Making It Work Day April 24 at the state Capitol, she received the national CTEEC Myra P. Sadker Award, which recognizes career and technology education teachers who have recognized and reduced gender bias and stereotyping in educational settings to provide an equitable education for all students.
Making It Work Day recognizes individuals who are committed to removing barriers to success for single-parent families by providing educational experiences for students beyond the classroom. The ceremony also recognized nontraditional students and members who received national honors for their efforts.
Rowland is in her second year as coordinator and instructor in Western Tech's biomedical academy. The program began last year with seven students and now has 21, 18 of whom are female students recruited by Rowland, said Western Tech Assistant Superintendent Penny Berry, who nominated Rowland for the award.
After one year in the program, students taking the ACT raised their scores by three to six points, Berry said.
"Mrs. Rowland is an amazing instructor," she said. "The organizational skills and expertise that Mrs. Rowland bestows on her students is highly effective."
OkCTEEC is affiliated with the administrative division of the Oklahoma Association of Career and Technology Education. The council advocates for students pursuing nontraditional careers and for resources for educating single parents.
"The mission of OkCTEEC is to serve as a unifying council for all personnel serving displaced homemakers, single parents, teen parents, single pregnant teens and women, nontraditional students and at-risk females," said Lou Ann Hargrave, Work Prep and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families coordinator at the Oklahoma Department of Career and Technology Education. She serves as an adviser for OkCTEEC, along with Sandy Elledge of the Department of Human Services and Kathy Quinn-Teague of the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education.
"State and federal programs often cannot remove all the obstacles facing those living in poverty," said Janie Clay, OkCTEEC president and coordinator of the Allied Jobs Program at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College. "Therefore, a strong community partnership is imperative among agencies, businesses and industries as the participants transition from education and training to employment and self-sufficiency. We rely heavily on our partners to provide learning opportunities outside the classroom."

On Wednesday 20th Sept the IW Club of Aotea Auckland hosted a movie evening at Hoyts Cinema Sylvia Park to view the charmingly hilarious Victoria and Abdul. Over 100 guests had an entertaining evening with Dame Judi Dench and Ali Fazal.
Funds raised from ticket sales and a raffle on the evening were given to assist the rehabilitation of Sophia Malthus. Sophia is a 19 year old Aucklander, who was sharing a house with one of our club members while she pursued her dream of being a jockey. On 29th November 2016 her dream came to a crashing halt as she fell from a race horse and is now a tetraplegic. Sophia has a great spirit but is seeking further medical treatment and rehabilitation. We'd like to help her a little on this journey. We were delighted to raise $2000 to support Sophia.

In some of the social-network conversations sparked by last week's post on Trump voters, particularly the less-educated Trump voters, one of my least-favorite terms came up: dumb down. Educated people are afraid that if they have to talk to less-educated people, they'll have to say stupid things, because those are the only sentences people without masters degrees can understand.
This always sets me off for two reasons: (1) I grew up in the working class, so I know first-hand that people who were happy to escape high school with a diploma (or maybe even without) are not stupid. (2) In all my various careers — mathematics, computer software, and now writing about politics and religion — I've been a popularizer. So when something complicated needs to be communicated or explained, I see that as a challenge, not a reason to start ranting about how stupid people are. If I can't explain something to someone, I need to take responsibility for my role in that failure, not just blame it all on them.
So that led to this week's featured post "Instead of Dumbing Down". It should be out around 9 EDT.
The weekly summary covers the travesty of the Commander-in-Chief Forum, where Matt Lauer grilled Hillary on her emails and cut short her comments on ISIS, then tossed softball questions to Trump and didn't follow up when he repeated his predictable lie about opposing the Iraq War. Hillary's health became a genuine issue rather than a manufactured one, now that she's been diagnosed with pneumonia. The Kaepernick protest spread. The Dakota Access Pipeline is on hold. And I'm still trying to decide whether I want the cute closing or the NSFW one. That should be out around noon.
OK but don't you think some subjects are inherently complicated and difficult to explain? It must be a REAL challenge to explain motivic cohomology or scheme theory.
Technical writers do this sort of thing all the time. They take complex topics and figure out how to explain them.

Do you want best of all Pancakes Without Eggs recipe? This is the most comforting Breakfast recipe I have come across. French folks out there will love this recipe. You don't have to be an expert to judge how delicious and flavorful this dish is.
Mix ingredients well to make a smooth, thick batter. Let the batter sit for 10 minutes. Spray a non-stick frying pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. When the pan is warm, use a ladle to pour pancakes. Cook them over medium heat until the edges appear dry and bubbles are breaking the surface of the pancake (about 3 minutes). Flip pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Serve warm with syrup, honey, fruit, etc.

Q: How to trigger the Dark Wanderer's three secrets in this week's tavern brawl? The Dark Wanderer in this week's Tavern Brawl starts the game with three secrets. I played a Annoyotron, triggering one of the secrets (Play a minion with Taunt - changes all minions' attacks to 1).
What are the other two secrets' triggers and effects? I am given to understand that triggering all three secrets results in nothing interesting happening at all, certainly not a secret cow level.
A: There are a total of 10 possible secrets, 3 of which are randomly chosen each game.
Those are:
*
*Visions of the Amazon - Secret: When your opponent summons a minion
with Battlecry, Summon a Mirror Image for both players.
*Visions of
the Assassin - Secret: When your opponent summons a minion with
Stealth, All minions equip a dagger.
*Visions of the Barbarian -
Secret: When your opponent summons a minion with Charge, THUNDER
FURY!
*Visions of the Crusader - Secret: When your opponent summons a
minion with Taunt, change all minions' attacks to 1.
*Visions of the
Necromancer - Secret: When your opponent summons a minion with
Deathrattle, destroy it.
*Visions of the Sorcerer - Secret: When your
opponent summons a minion with Spell Damage, Summon 2 Guardians.
*Visions of Fate - Secret: When your opponent takes lethal damage...
save him.
*Visions of Hate - Secret: When both heroes have 15 or less
Health, BRAWL!
*Visions of Valor - Secret: When your opponent summons
a Legendary minion, give all minions Windfury.
*Visions of Knowledge -
Secret: When your opponent's hand has 9 or more cards, reduce the
cost of all cards in both hands to (1).

Imagine you are a credit card selling company and you know about a particular customer who makes a purchase of 25$ every week. You guessed this purchase is his fixed weekly rations but one day, this customer makes a different purchase of 700$. This development will not just startle you but also compel you to talk to the customer and find out the reason so you can approve the transaction. This is because, the behavior of the customer had become fixed and the change was so different that it was not expected. Hence we call this event as an anomaly.
Anomalies are hard to detect because they can also be real phenomenon. Let's say that the customer in the example above made the usual purchases while he was living alone and will be starting his family this week. This will mean that this should be the first of his future purchases of similar magnitude or he is throwing a party this week and this was a one-time large purchase. In all these cases, the customer will be classified as making an 'abnormal' choice. We as the credit card seller need to know which of these cases are genuine and which are mistakes which can be corrected if they reconfirm the same with the customer. The usefulness of detecting such anomalies are very useful especially in BFSI industry with the primary use in credit card transactions. Such anomalies can be signs of fraud or theft. Someone making multiple transactions of small amounts from the same credit card, making one very large transaction which is a few order of magnitudes larger than the average, making transactions from an unfamiliar location are such examples that can caused by fraudsters and must be caught. With the popularity of adoption, let's study the ways we can detect anomalies.
Anomalies are essentially the outliers in our data. If something happens regularly, it is not an anomaly but a trend. Things which happen once or twice and are deviant from the usual behavior, whether continuously or with lags are all anomalies. So it all boils down to the definition of outliers for our data. R provides a lot of packages with different approaches to anomaly detection. We will use the AnomalyDetection package in R to understand the concept of anomalies using one such method. However, the package needs to be installed specially from github. This requires the install_github() function in devtools package. We will also use the Rcpp package which helps us to integrate R with C++ functions. Another github package to be used in this article is the wikipedia trend package which contains the API to access wikipedia and create data for anomaly detection analysis.
The package is capable of identifying outliers in the presence of seasonality and trend in the data. The package uses an algorithm known as Seasonal Hybrid ESD algorithm which finds outliers globally as well as locally in time series or a vector of data. The package has a lot of features, some of which include visualization graphs, type of anomalies (positive or negative) and specifying the window of interest.
We see some huge spikes at different intervals. There are a lot of anomalies in this data. Before we process them further, let's keep only the relevant columns.
We will now perform anomaly detection using Seasonal Hybrid ESD Test. The technique maps data as a series and captures seasonality while pointing out data which does not follow the seasonality pattern. The AnomalyDetectionTs() function finds the anomalies in the data. It will basically narrow down all the peaks keeping in mind that not more than 10% of data can be anomalies (by default). We can also reduce this number by changing the max_anoms parameter in the data. We can also specify which kind of anomalies are to be identified using the direction parameter. Here, we are going to specify only positive direction anomalies to be identified. That means that sudden dips in the data are not considered.
Our data has 5.68% anomalies in positive direction if we take a level of significance (alpha) to be 95%. Since we had a total of 1022 observations, 5.68% of the number is about 58 observations. We can look at the specific dates which are pointed out by the algorithm.
We have the exact dates and the anomaly values for each date. In a typical anomaly detection process, each of these dates are looked case by case and the reason for anomalies is identified. For instance, the page views can be higher on these dates if there had been fifa matches or page updates on these particular days. Another reason could be big news about fifa players. However, if page views on any of the dates does not correspond to any special event, then those days are true anomalies and should be flagged. In other situations such as credit card transactions, such anomalies can indicate fraud and quick action must be taken on identification.
Converting from tbl_df to tbl_time.
This is a better plot and shows the anomalies. We all know how bitcoin prices shot up in 2018. The grey portion explains the expected trend. Let's see what these red points are.
Conclusion: Are You An Anomaly?
We have twitter's anomaly detection package based on Seasonal Hybrid ESD (SH-ESD) as well as CRAN's anomaly detection package based on factor analysis, Mahalanobis distance, Horn's parallel analysis or Principal component analysis. We also have TsOutliers package and anomalize packages in R. There are a lot more packages than one could find in R. They all have the same concept but differ in the underlying algorithm which they use to detect anomaly. Hence, one can get a general idea from all such packages: anomalies are data points which do not follow the general trend or do not lie under the expected behavior of the rest of the data. The next question which is raised is the criteria for a data point to be following expected behavior. The rest of the data points are all anomalies. One can also have varying types of anomalies such as direction based anomalies as described by the anomaly detection package (positive or negative) or anomalies not following events such as matches in fifa data. One can similarly pitch in another logic for anomaly classification and treat them accordingly.

Meghan Trainor says she's been busier than ever while in lockdown
Disney Channel/Image Group LA
If you thought Meghan Trainor was having some relaxing downtime in COVID-19 lockdown, think again. While her 2020 touring plans may have been cancelled, the pregnant singer says she's been busier than ever.
Speaking to ET Canada, Meghan says she not only recorded her entire Christmas album while stuck at home, but she's also been filming performances and music videos for the project in advance.
"I tried to record all the performances before I got like monstrously big," she says. "So yeah, we're doing music videos and performances that no one's even seen yet. And now we're doing all the promo."
"It's nice that I get the luxury of being home," she adds. "But we're working for sure!"
Meghan's first-ever holiday album, A Very Trainor Christmas, came out last Friday. She's expecting a baby boy with husband Daryl Sabara early next year.

the area i'm in doesnt have much grassy fields etc... it's sandy / desert type area.
One of the motors has alot of sand grains inside and i'd like to be able to clean the motors frequently.
Any steps you can provide to disassemble the motor for cleaning?
i can see there is a kind of washer which may be removed with a reverse type of pliers?
Anyway, whatever assistance you can provide would be appreciated.
I had to clean some tree debris out of one of my motors - it was pretty easy.
Simply remove the C-clip (AKA circlip, or snap ring) retaining clip from the rear of the motor (the part that slides into the pylon) by either using the proper tool or like me and use a very small straight blade screw driver to pry it off.
At this point, the bell housing will be free and you can remove the outrunner section from the winding/stationary section and clean either/both parts.
On a related note, if you get some grinding going on between the magnet ring/winding due to debris such as sand etc, you can polish them up with some fine grit sand paper and then wipe a thin layer of CA glue on the surface (to reseal and prevent rust). If it is major grinding you have probably bent a shaft and need to replace the motor/shaft/bearings.
Opened it up and gave it a thorough clean good as new!

Washington Representative II
Salary is commensurate with experience
Center for Science and Democracy
Union of Concerned Scientists
The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) is an independent national nonprofit that uses science to protect our health, safety, and environment. We are scientists, engineers, economists, activists, and everyday people who develop and advocate for innovative, practical solutions to some of our planet's most pressing problems—from combating global warming and developing sustainable ways to feed, power, and transport ourselves, to fighting misinformation, advancing racial equity, and reducing the threat of nuclear war.
The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) is seeking a new Washington Representative II for the Center for Science and Democracy (CSD). The Center campaigns for strong, independent science as a fundamental basis for better, more equitable, and just public policies. We work for fairer, more transparent democratic institutions and systems; more just and equitable public health, safety, and environmental protection, particularly for underserved communities; and an ongoing cultural shift in the scientific community to embrace activism for science-based policymaking.
Under the supervision of the Policy Director of the Center for Science and Democracy (CSD) or their designee, the Washington Representative II will develop and lead advocacy efforts to strengthen the role of science in public policymaking and defend against proposals or actions that would undermine our system of science-based public protections. Advocate for CSD policy agenda to Congress, the Executive Branch, and other relevant government officials, including in support of activities undertaken by senior program staff, the UCS FACT Campaign, and UCS leadership.
The Washington Representative II will work closely with outreach staff, senior program leadership, and other UCS government affairs to develop and integrate legislative work with research and outreach strategies and keep staff up to date on relevant legislative, administrative, and coalition developments. Work with other organizations on coordinated advocacy and policy development. Prepare written materials for diverse audiences, including internal managers and staff, Members of Congress and their staff, administration officials, partner organizations, and the general public.
· Facilitate and assist in the day-to-day running of the Coalition for the Prevention of Chemicals Disasters (CPCD).
· Represent CSD and UCS at meetings with government officials and other external stakeholders.
· Support advocacy efforts related to CSD's policy agenda and maintain a leading role in specific policy areas as assigned.
· Monitor and develop systems for monitoring daily print media, blogs, and social media for pertinent coverage of policy issues and share promptly with relevant staff.
· Track the progress of legislation and regulations in Congress and at federal agencies, respectively.
· Help develop and implement campaign strategies for CSD, cross-programmatic, and coalition policy goals.
· Provide strategic and innovative input on advancing CSD's priorities in Congress and with the executive branch, as well as defending against policies and actions that undermine the use of science in federal policymaking.
· Provide support for program efforts to encourage administrative actions and Congressional oversight over program issues.
· Participate in research projects related to legislative and policy work, including helping with the drafting and editing of reports.
· Maintain a comprehensive knowledge of relevant issues, as assigned.

Q: How to get/create anonymous method from TRttiMethod? I want to handle a TRttiMethod as anonymous method. How could I do this?
Here is a simplified example of how I wish things to work:
Interface:
TMyClass = class
public
// this method will be acquired via Rtti
procedure Foo;
// this method shall return above Foo as anonymous method
function GetMethodAsAnonymous: TProc;
end;
Implementation:
function TMyClass.GetMethodAsAnonymous: TProc;
var
Ctx: TRttiContext;
RttiType: TRttiType;
RttiMethod: TRttiMethod;
begin
Ctx := TRttiContext.Create;
try
RttiType := Ctx.GetType(Self.ClassType);
RttiMethod := RttiType.GetMethod('Foo');
Result := ??????; // <-- I want to put RttiMethod here - but how?
finally
Ctx.Free;
end;
end;
A: If you really want an anonymous method, then make an anonymous method:
Result := procedure
begin
RttiMethod.Invoke(Self, []);
end;
You can also construct a simple method pointer:
var
Method: procedure of object;
TMethod(Method).Code := RttiMethod.CodeAddress;
TMethod(Method).Data := Self;
Result := Method;
The most direct way of course doesn't use RTTI at all:
Result := Foo;

The Band Bios:
GONE FISHIN
www.instagram.com/gonefishin_band/
Gone Fishin' was born in 2015 with three friends and a dream. Playing afterschool in their parent's garage, the core trio of Brennan Jung, Runar Anderson Schmidt, and Ryan Cohen quickly began to develop their sound. They gained notoriety in the San Francisco music scene playing shows at house parties and local clubs. Their debut album "Too Much Honey" came out in 2018 to popular and critical acclaim as they all left home and spread across the country for college.
With the boys no longer living in the same town, the future of Gone Fishin' was up in the air. However, the distance brought the band even closer and led them to be more productive than before. During their semesters apart the band would write new material and book shows so they could hit the studio and hit the road when they were back together over breaks.
2019 brought the release of their EP "Thump." The beginning of a new chapter for the band as each of the members stood on the precipice of adulthood.
Gone Fishin's second full length album "Dance Don't Walk" is their most exciting release yet. From the heart racing and upbeat "1965" to the laid back "If It Ain't You" it is impossible to listen without smiling from ear to ear. Their songwriting has matured, and their production is improved, but their music still contains all the fun and excitement of those same three friends trying to figure out love, life, and growing up.
FLAMANGO BAY
www.instagram.com/flamangobay/
We are Flamango Bay, an indie pop rock band from the Bay Area! When we started playing together in middle school, we barely knew each other. Four years of high school and a pandemic later; we live together in our LA apartment. We each come from diverse musical backgrounds. You can hear the influence of 90's alternative, garage rock, and emo pop to r&b, funk, and jazz. Bands like Fashion Jackson, Paramore, Vulfpeck, Beabadoobee, and Small Crush and artists like Stevie Wonder, Sza, Mitski, Frank Ocean and Harry Styles are some of our favorites.
We have been shaped by the Bay Area in every way. We are inspired by activism and motivated by the desperate need for change. As a female fronted, predominantly queer band, it is our goal to make the California indie scene a safe space for everyone. We want to build up a community in which there's mutual respect between bands and their audiences. Everyone deserves a place in the scene, except for racists, abusers, homophobes, transphobes etc.

There is a war brewing between Lonzo Ball and the Lakers
With each leak, the foundation of Lonzo Ball and the Lakers' relationship seems to weaken. It is no secret that Ball and his ever-volatile father, LaVar, were determined to have him get drafted by the Lakers and build their legacy there. Ball had a respectable rookie season for the Lakers when healthy, but with LeBron James in Los Angeles and in need of another star, Ball's future there is as precarious as ever. The Lakers have been in talks with the Spurs for the disgruntled Kawhi Leonard, but the Spurs seem more enamored with Brandon Ingram, Kyle Kuzma, Josh Hart and future draft picks than they do Ball. Any chance of Ball being included in that trade, however, seemed to end when it was reported

Patients Speak Out After Fertility Clinic Reports Freezer Malfunction: 'There Go My Babies'
Hundreds of families are grappling with the devastating news that a freezer malfunction at an Ohio fertility clinic may have left eggs and embryos stored in one of two large freezers no longer viable for use.
On Thursday, officials with University Hospitals Fertility Clinic in Cleveland announced that an "unexpected temperature fluctuation" within the storage bank impacted several embryos. More than 2,000 frozen eggs and embryos were compromised, according to CNN.
"We have initiated an investigation to identify the cause of this event," the clinic said in a statement. "We are bringing in independent experts to ensure we understand all aspects of this occurrence and do everything possible to address the situation.
"Right now, our patients come first. We are incredibly sorry this happened. We are committed to getting answers and working with patients individually to address their concerns."
For Christina Ellis, who had two embryos saved at the clinic, the incident means she may never be able to have another child. She has a 2-year-old daughter, Laceygale, from in vitro fertilization (IVF).
"It's just a horrible feeling. In my heart, I'm like, 'Those were my children. Those were babies-to-be.' And I had such a hard time with the procedure in the first place because I was 36," the grieving mom of one tells PEOPLE. "We thought,' going to have her siblings, and that was our whole goal and now that's just been crushed."
She adds: "I just never thought this would happen. In a million years, I never thought that this would happen."
Ellis, 39, suffered an ectopic pregnancy, which "destroyed" her fallopian tubes and left her unable to conceive. So, in 2014, she created four embryos and used one to have Laceygale. Another was unsuccessful and the final two have remained at the clinic for years.
Ellis says she hoped to have another embryo implanted later this year, after her 40th birthday. But now, she says, that likely won't happen.
"I didn't know what to think. I didn't know what to say," she recalls of the moment she got the news in a phone call on Friday. "I just broke down crying. I was still in denial … my first thought was, 'There go my babies. I'm not going to be able to have kids anymore."
Ellis says that the clinic offered to pay for both storage fees and perform the embryo creation procedure again free of charge. However, Ellis says that at nearly 40 years old, "I don't know if I can do this again."
Many families received what Ellis called a "general letter" in the mail, notifying them of the malfunction. About a week later, staff members began speaking with families directly to deliver the heartbreaking news.
Danelle Yerkey, another patient who had her embryos stored in the facility, calls the situation a "nightmare."
"This is a disaster," she tells PEOPLE. "So many are devastated … people need to know the severity of this nightmare."
Rachael Hyster, who underwent IVF and gave birth to "two beautiful daughters," says she and the other women are crushed and desperate for answers.
"My husband and I are heartbroken as they have taken away our chance to add to our family if we wanted to," she tells PEOPLE. "I feel my loss is minimal to some of the families, this was their only hope to have a biological child of their own."
At least two proposed class action lawsuits have been filed against the Cleveland clinic, Cleveland.com reports.
Around the same time as the Ohio incident, the Pacific Fertility Center in San Francisco also experienced a storage tank malfunction, according to CNN. Officials said that a piece of equipment in the storage unit "lost liquid nitrogen for a brief period of time" on March 4.
Neither the University Hospitals Fertility Clinic nor the Pacific Fertility Center immediately responded to PEOPLE's request for comment.

Prince William Says He Felt Princess Diana's Presence at His Wedding: I 'Felt She Was There for Me'
The world may have lost Princess Diana nearly 20 years ago, but Prince William says his late mother was with him on one of the biggest days of his life: the day he wed Princess Kate.
William, 35, speaks candidly about his late mother in the upcoming ITV and HBO documentary, Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy, in which he reveals he felt Diana's presence during the 2011 wedding.
"When it came to the wedding, I did really feel that she was there," he says. "You know, there was times when you look to someone or something for strength and I very much felt she was there for me."
Along with William, 32-year-old Prince Harry opens up about his late mother in the special which airs ahead of the 20th anniversary of Diana's death in a Paris car crash. The royals have expressed how difficult it is to talk about the death, and William has even vowed, "We won't speak as openly and as publicly about her again."
"It's one thing doing a documentary like this and it's another thing standing front of all of you guys and explaining about something very personal to you," he said during a recent discussion with reporters — including PEOPLE — at Kensington Palace.
"Nevertheless, I think it's very important that I'm here to do that."
The princes, who were 15 and 12 respectively when Diana died, also expressed their regret over their last conversations with their mother.
"If I'd known that that was the last time I was going to speak to my mother the things that I would – the things I would have said to her," Harry says in the documentary. The brothers last spoke to Diana in a telephone call while they stayed in Balmoral with their grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, and father Prince Charles.
Diana, Our Mother: Her Life and Legacy will air Monday, August 31, at 10 p.m. on HBO in the U.S. and 9 p.m. in the U.K. on ITV.
The show is one of several commemorations of the Princess in print and on film. PEOPLE and ABC have partnered in a two-night television event The Story of Diana, airing on Aug. 9 and 10 at 9 p.m. ET.

When Families Can't Afford Their Child's Funeral, Patricia Quinn Is There to Help
For Philadelphia funeral director Patricia Quinn, helping bereaved families bury their children is tough enough.
But finding out they can't afford to hold a funeral for their children, let alone bury them, was heartbreaking.
"It's so devastating," says Quinn, 49, the mother of a 15-year-old girl. "Most of the parents are young. They barely have insurance on themselves, let alone on their kid."
So she decided to do something about it.
In March 2006, she founded Final Farewell (finalfarewell.org), a nonprofit that has so far paid for funerals, headstones, graves or urns for more than 500 children in Pennsylvania and across the country.
"She's probably the single most dedicated human being I've ever met," says Sylvia Urrata, a former bereavement care coordinator at the Philadelphia medical examiner's office. "She's never once declined to help with any child I had."
The very first family Quinn helped was that of Eddie Lichtenhahn, the 9-year-old son of a Philadelphia police officer who died suddenly of a brain aneurysm in February 2006. She saw a flier for a 'Beef 'n Beer' fundraiser for the boy's funeral costs and knew she could help—ultimately negotiating a lower price for his headstone and then pitching in with a $ 500 donation.
"I couldn't thank her enough," the child's father, Ed, 59, tells PEOPLE. "It meant a lot to us and it always will. I've always said to her — whatever she needed, I'd be there for her."
For the first couple of years Quinn had to seek out families to help through death notices in local newspapers. But after a while, she developed a network of social workers at local hospitals and the local medical examiner's office who would contact her when they had someone in need, she says. Finances are often tight but Quinn refuses to turn anyone down.
"It's just the right thing to do," she says. "I cannot imagine having your child pass away."

There Was A Fancy Masquerade Ball For Dogs And It Did Not Disappoint

There were no fashion faux paws here.
Some of Washington, D.C.'s most dapper dogs strutted their stuff for the 30th Annual Bark Ball on Saturday night while raising money for a local animal welfare organization (and taking the doggone cutest pictures).
The black-tie gala, which benefited the Humane Rescue Alliance (HRA), featured a masquerade theme that allowed guests to bring their canine companions as their dinner dates.

Not a group to disappoint, the dogs were seen wearing their finest coats — as well as adorable bow ties, tutus, hats and at least one mask.
Insider photos posted to social media showed guests of all shapes, sizes, and breeds.

By the end of the night, an event spokesperson, reached by HuffPost, boasted that they had raised more than $ 700,000. They also received a record-breaking 1,200 guests, which included former Sens. Bob (R-Kan.) and Elizabeth Dole (R-N.C.).
That money raised will go towards helping "protect animals, support families, and advocate for positive change to create a world where all animals can thrive," the animal welfare group said.
I guess humans know how to throw a good ball after all.

Lucy Hale Confirms There Will Be Two Weddings In The Final Episodes Of 'Pretty Little Liars'
After seven years on the air, "Pretty Little Liars" is coming to an end this June. But for the first time in the series' run, there will finally be answers ― and happy endings, too.
During a conversation with The Huffington Post on Build Series Thursday, Lucy Hale confirmed the news that they'll be "more than one wedding" in Season 7B.
"This whole season, in general, is just very romantic. You get to see all of the couples together and there's a wedding … or are there two weddings? Yes, there's one main wedding … hmmm, I don't know if I was supposed to say there are two weddings, but whatever, we'll just let that slide," Hale joked, getting a bit nervous about her spoilery slip before putting it behind her, adding, "Pregnancies, kids, yeah. The girls are grown up."
But whose nuptials will be featured on the show? Spoby? Haleb? Or will Aria and Ezra take the cake?
Last October, Ian Harding, who plays Ezra, shared a photo of Hale on Instagram, thanking her for being his sidekick throughout the series. But, he apparently forgot that she was wearing a veil, and fans, obviously, freaked out. So, Aria is probably going to be one of the brides, right?
"It's been such a roller coaster of a romance, but I want to say there's a happy ending," Hale said of engaged couple Ezria.
According to Hale, weddings aren't all we have to look forward to. It sounds like Aria turns to the "dark side" (which just makes us think she's definitely, most likely, maybe A/A.D./Uber A).
"The board game plays a big part in the last nine episodes," she explained. Obviously, all of the girls will get a turn and it puts them in very uncomfortable situations ― life-or-death situations. And, Aria, it really pits her against the girls. For the first time it's little Aria against the rest of them, so things get weird."
Hale continued, "Aria gets to do some real cool stuff this season. This was the first time in the course of the show that I went to [showrunner I. Marlene King] and I went to the writers and was like, 'Please, can Aria just do something really cool and different for the last 10 episodes?' And they gave me my way, and I was really surprised. Not only was it stuff I never got to do on the show, but I got to do things I've never done in acting, period."
Green-screen action? Yup, they'll be some of that.
Things are getting …weird at work. Do I have something on my face ?
A post shared by Lucy Hale (@lucyhale) on Sep 20, 2016 at 7:01am PDT
Hale said playing a different, darker side of Aria was fun and challenging, but it will for sure shift the dynamic between the Liars.
"She does some crazy stuff," she told HuffPost. "It puts everything at stake ― it puts her friendships, her relationships at stake ― and there are times when you're like, 'Whose side is she on?'"
The 27-year-old actress loves to read all of the theories fans of the show come up with, and appreciates every wacky, illogical moment the "Pretty Little Liars" writers decide to toss their way. Still, she has a favorite storyline (and she can't wait for you to watch it unfold).
"This sounds cliché, but, the very ending is just my favorite of all," Hale said. "A is a lot closer than we think, you guys … it's nuts!"
"Pretty Little Liars" airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Freeform. Watch the full Build Series interview with Lucy Hale below.

Drop Everything, There Was A 'Sex And The City' Reunion Last Night
Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon reunited on the red carpet in New York City Thursday night at the premiere of Matthew Broderick's new play, "Evening at the Talk House." It wasn't quite Carrie and Miranda meeting up at the diner, but it's still a pretty Big deal for "Sex and the City" fans.
Parker looked lovely in mixed prints, fishnet stockings and metallic ankle strap pumps.
Nixon looked great too, wearing a black top and wide-leg pants with a statement coat on top.
At one point, Nixon was seen making a face similar to the one she employed trying to talk Carrie out of moving to Paris with Aleksandr Petrovsky.
But mostly it was all smiles and of course, great style. With those "Sex and the City 3" rumors buzzing about, we couldn't help but wonder what the pair was chatting about. Steve? Brady? How Brooklyn really is the new Manhattan, after all?

The Bachelor Episode 2 Recap: Nick Puts Himself Out There
We start with Corinne, the narcissistic rich blonde contestant who is "crushing really hard" on Nick, and could also be my daughter, if I had birthed her when I was 11, but that's an aside. The women get invited to the group date, which is cruelly titled "Always a bridesmaid." There's an interview with Danielle, 27, who is blindingly attractive so I don't listen to what she's saying, which makes me a chauvinistic dude at heart.
The women are told by the producers to happily race toward Nick, and they do, buoyed by youth, hope, and the desire to be wed to a hipster with tendencies toward romantic angst. The women are outfitted in different bridal gowns, while Nick says that he wants to see the women "be goofy" and have fun, which foreshadows that someone will take this Too Seriously.
The shark costume girl gets drunk again. Corinne brags about having kissed Nick during the first cocktail party, and is happy about her bikini top bridal gown until she sees another girl who is supposed to be either Eve or a jungle bride and is wearing only leafy bikini bottoms with her hair covering her boobs. Thunder: stolen.
The photographer says that whoever has the best connection with Nick will get a surprise, which is either more time with Nick or a session with a therapist specializing in daddy issues, whichever a given woman needs more (hint: it should always be the second).
Jasmine kisses Nick during the shoot, which opens up the floodgates for the other women kissing him as well. Jasmine the ungrammatical mental health counselor kisses him tenderly and Corinne almost kills her. The girls discuss how Corinne is the only one who's kissed Nick, and Liz, who's already had sex with him, gloats to the interviewer about how she's had sex with him. In case you missed it, she's had sex with him. Sex. With. Him.
Nick's photo shoot as Adam and Eve is very sexy, which makes Corinna insecure, so on her turn, she gets in the pool and TAKES OFF HER TOP literally, and Nick looks profoundly uncomfortable with this topless photo shoot in front of the other women. Holy balls, she just won the contest for being "most connected" with Nick, which isn't fair because only her boobs were most connected with Nick. Her prize, sadly, is only another wedding photo shoot with Nick, rather than intensive outpatient therapy focused on Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
At the cocktail party, after telling the interviewer that nobody ever has or will hold her boobs the way that Nick did (really), Corinne asks Nick for alone time, during which she instantly starts making out with him as per usual. She takes a break to tell him how much she likes him, and he says he is impressed with her and how she is sexy and takes charge. No way is he marrying her, though. She's not enough of a challenge for Nick.
The southern belle, Raven, tells Nick that she's been cheated on before, and tells Nick that she's previously been attracted to ass$ %@s, apparently unlike him. Corinne interrupts shark costume girl for her second time talking to Nick this evening, which she really Shouldn't Do, according to Bachelor Etiquette. Next, the mental health counselor discusses how the majority of her work "comes down to vulnerability," but then she, too, is interrupted by Corinne, who is now taking her third turn with Nick, which is really an unprecedented breach of protocol. Weirdly, Nick keeps letting her do this, meaning either the producers told him not to stop her, or he's really a boob guy, to the exclusion of being a personality guy.
Uh oh! The mental health counselor steals Nick back! Later, Corinne, who is fairly inebriated, says that the mental health counselor, whose name I should really learn at some point, "re-interrupted" her and that is out of line. This is the definition of "the inability to understand others' perspectives." She then gives a drunken rant telling the other girls that nobody should be there to make friends, but should be there for Nick only, and so forth. Nick, bizarrely, gives Corinne the rose, who then says that her dad would be proud of her performance this evening, "even though I was naked." The other women respond with silence, and Corinne says "I was just Corinne, that's all I did, guys." Which appears to be their issue.
Back at the house, Corinne tells another girl how she's not used to guys listening to her, which is why she's so into Nick. The helicopter comes to take Danielle, the neonatal nurse, on a one-on-one date. The other women are excited for her, or at least putting on a good impression of being excited for her. Nick and Danielle's helicopter lands on a yacht in Newport Beach, which is like my last date, except for the yacht, helicopter, and location. It turns out that Nick and Danielle are from the same hometown, and she will be the madonna character in the madonna-whore trope that underlies the show. Three guesses who's the whore.
Back at the house, Liz the doula tells another girl, Christen, that she had sex with Nick. She asks how much time we have left to the show, and I answer, 39 minutes. Oh wait, I was just dissociating during this awkward conversation. Christen, like all of America, appears confused as to why Liz refused to give Nick her number after the hookup but yet wants to be on the show now.
Meanwhile, on the yacht, Nick and Danielle canoodle in a cute and laid back way, but, with her low hypnotic voice and natural makeup, I think she's too low-drama for Nick. She seems like someone that wouldn't be terribly good in bed, unless you're into necrophilia. Oh wait, the corpse is perking up, and that joke was in terribly poor taste, since she now is confiding that she had a dead drug addicted fiance. He wasn't dead at the time of engagement though. We think. Danielle gets the rose, as does anyone who ever discusses a death during a one-on-one. He tells the camera that he connected with Danielle in a deeper way than he thought he would, and she's cute and lovable and then they get on a Ferris Wheel and kiss and life is a dream when you're young, hot, and on reality TV. Back in my life, my dog just scooted on the carpet so she probably needs her anal glands expressed.
Another date card arrives at the house and Liz is upset that that she only merits a group date invite, and not a one-on-one. Te group date is at some weird museum of things that people leave behind from failed relationships, which includes the ring that Nick used to propose to Caitlin during his failed proposal on The Bachelorette. There is a staged fight where a couple breaks up, and the stupider girls think it's real and not staged. Then, the girls are supposed to fake break up with Nick in front of a live audience, because they have literally thought of every other date option already on this show.
Liz freaks out because she thinks that Nick is avoiding her, because drama queen. Now we move to the breakups, which are actually kind of funny, but I think my bar for humor on this show is low. Liz the drama queen tries to make this into a real conversation. She talks about their hookup at Jade and whoever's wedding and says that he didn't fight for her, in this fake conversation that is actually real. He is very weirded out and tells the camera that he didn't expect Liz to share their "dating" story in front of the other women.
Group date. Nick talks to the women, trying to suss out whether they know that he's hooked up with Liz. Christen confirmed that Liz told her that They Had Sex. He confirms this as well, and Christen thanks him for his honesty, which is apparently a thing that is done on this show a minimum of three times per episode.
Nick corners Liz and tells her that he knows that she told Christen that They Had Sex. He says that he hasn't heard from her before this, but now she's on the show, so if she wanted to pursue a relationship, why did she wait till she was going to be on TV to do it? She says various contradictory and confusing things that do nothing to assuage Nick's fears that she's a fame whore. Then he dumps her, which teaches you a lesson, ladies: if you like a dude, call him after sex, don't wait till he's on national TV to pursue him. Generalize to your own life situation as needed.
Nick goes back and tells the women that he Had Sex with Liz but now dumped her, and the "To Be Continued" sign comes across the screen. Next time, we see women crying because of the idea of Nick Having Sex with anyone but them. And the Bachelorette contestants and the people on Bachelor in Paradise, but whatever. And till we meet again, I remain, The Blogapist Who Says, You're a Shoo In For Bachelor in Paradise, Liz.

There Was Going to Be a Halo Mega Bloks Game
Back in 2013, now-defunct video game developer N-Space was working on a Mega Bloks game set in the Halo universe.
According to a recent video from PtoPOnline (thanks Polygon), the game, codenamed "Haggar" would've been a third-person action game for the Xbox 360 along the same lines as the popular LEGO games.
Footage from a leaked build of "Haggar" shows lengthy levels in which you're fighting enemies using familiar weapons, building structures, driving in vehicle sections, and solving simple platforming puzzles. A co-op mode was also in development, along with "Besiege Mode," where players would build up their base to defend it from waves on enemies.

Yes, There Is Free Lunch At Work, And Here's How To Find It
Editor's Note: HuffPost reporter Ron Dicker is well known for ferreting out crazy, NSFW stories that our readers often love (and our Newsdesk editors invariably loathe). But as great as he is at spotting penis-shaped clouds, he's even better at finding free food.
Indeed, this always-noshing 55-year-old Brooklynite has reptilian-like efficiency when stalking his prey ― leftover lunch from sales meetings, training sessions and big shot events lowly reporters are typically excluded from at work.
We'd like to assure you that Ron also has a heart of gold, a lovely wife, and two great kids, to whom he is devoted. He'd also like to put his great talents to good ― to prevent food waste. And help us all eat for free.
I scavenge for free food in the office. Or, as I like to put it, well, there's no nice way to put it. I'm just a cheap man who enjoys eating for nothing.
I forage on a daily, even hourly, basis, making the rounds on all three floors of our New York City office. These aren't stops on the way to somewhere else. They are planned expeditions to fill my belly on gratis grub.
On the plus side: I'm doing my part to combat food waste. I'm chowing down on the house. At any one time in the AOL/Huffington Post headquarters, there are sales meetings, editorial planning sessions, all sorts of top-level powwows.
I stalk these huddle rooms. I note when catering comes in. As I file each story, I pass by, again and again, to perfectly time out that magical moment when the food comes out. These people always order too much. After all, they're big shots.
And I'm popular among some associates who follow my lead to the complimentary treats.
On the negative side: Are you kidding? It's FREE. I imagine some coworkers think I take my mission overboard and that I'm rude. I say let them eat cake ― and leave me the leftovers.
Here are several tips to score free food in your office.
1. Follow your nose. No joke. If something smells delicious, find the source. It might be the pre-packaged lunch just nuked by a colleague. Bleh. Or it could be that someone just lifted the Saran Wrap off a giant catered spread waiting for you to attack. Huzzah!
2. Watch the traffic flow of the room. You can get a sense of when shareable vittles have arrived by noting if a few colleagues are walking faster than usual toward certain areas. There could be a birthday party about to kick off. And does it really matter what the occasion is? Just go!
3. Know the delivery pattern of goods. Public relations firms and vendors are constantly sending samples to HuffPost. I try to be aware of when they first arrive on my floor so I can get an early green light to indulge. But sometimes deadlines distract me. Damn you, deadlines.
4. Cruise the free bins. We have areas for free stuff ― some designated with a sign and others understood. Visit them often.
5. Act like you belong. If you're insinuating yourself into a catered lunch, calmly serve yourself and leave before anyone objects.
6. Don't be afraid to ask. There are times when chutzpah won't cut it. If you see a buffet that you suspect is meant for a certain group at a certain time, ask if you can have some. Even if you're told no, at least you look semi-polite. You can still move in later when the invited attendees have had their fill.
7. Know your time of day. It sounds silly, right? But it's critical. If you see a meeting that's stocked with yum-yums, have an idea of when it will adjourn so you can swoop in and do a hyena number on the remains. A few reconnaissance missions to the area beforehand can't hurt.
8. Work with a colleague. Hey, even Batman has Robin, right? My Robin is Lee Speigel, who sits behind me. It is Lee's job to watch a training room that often hosts both breakfast and lunch. Lee casually does surveillance on the comings and goings out of that room. I do not even buy a $ 1 bag of Cheez-Its until I get a briefing from Lee on what could be up for grabs and when. Lee covers UFOs for HuffPost. For me it's all about other UFOs ― Urgent Food Offerings.
9. Know your time of year. At a media outfit like ours, the swag pours in according to calendar. Fall and winter are particularly full. Halloween = candy. Christmas = tears of joy for the bounty of free shit everywhere. Super Bowl = beer and other alcohol promotions. Keep an eye out.
10. Develop a high tolerance for the complimentary snacks that may already be on hand. At HuffPost we can generally have our fill of cereal, yogurt, string cheese and carrots. But you can get tired of them fast. If you simply refuse to pay for food, you must make due with the staples until the next windfall.
Who says there's no free lunch?

There Are So Few Women In Music Production, No One Bothers To Count
In February, Taylor Swift took the stage at the 58th annual Grammy Awards to accept Album of the Year on behalf of the large team behind her highly celebrated album "1989." During her speech, Swift touted a message of female empowerment, encouraging women to take credit for their own success.
"There are going to be people along the way who try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame. But if you just focus on the work," the pop star said, "[someday] you will look around and you will know it was you and the people who love you who put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world."
Swift hoped to encourage women to take credit for their own success. The message was well-intentioned, but diluted somewhat by the people surrounding her: a large number of producers, all of them male. Quickly, the criticism started to fly online — why couldn't such a powerful female pop star, especially one as publicly feminist as Swift, find some other women to collaborate with?
But the truth is, the low number of women involved in the making of "1989" is actually fairly high by industry standards. A group of 19 people, aside from Swift, are credited with making the album. Included are two women: Imogen Heap and Laura Sisk. And while neither of the women appeared behind Swift at the ceremony, their presence in the studio meant that nearly 11 percent of those involved in creating "1989" were female. A sad number, but even more tragic is that it is still better than the gender balance in the industry at large.
For the few women in those technical roles, their daily work life is sometimes flavored by skepticism from their male peers: Is she really here to work?
"A lot of people assume I'm someone's wife or girlfriend when they first see me in the studio," Sisk, a sound engineer who's worked with pop stars including Carly Rae Jepsen and Shakira, told The Huffington Post in an email. "I've gotten used to giving overly technical explanations of why I'm doing what I'm doing, because I'm always questioned at every step."
A few things to ponder when considering the state of female producers in the music industry: There are so few of them, we couldn't find a single stock photo showing a lady on the technical side of the booth. There are so few of them, women in the industry are often asked whether they're really getting help from a man. But most important, there are so few of them that audio recording associations haven't bothered to count their number in over 15 years.
Look at the website for Women's Audio Mission, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting women in audio production, and you'll find a statistic that says only 5 percent of people who work in the production of music, television, news and film are women. It's a figure occasionally referenced by media, and sometimes mumbled within the industry. (If music professionals don't know the number of women producers exactly, they're at least well aware there are not many.)
When reached for comment, WAM founder Terri Winston told HuffPost that "5 percent" number was actually an estimate made by the Women in Audio Committee of the Audio Engineering Society back in 2000. Today, Winston's organization believes the number is even smaller than that, based on attendance at Audio Engineering Society conventions.
"It is still too small of a number to spend time measuring," Winston wrote in an email. A representative from the Audio Engineering Society agreed, noting that time spent counting could be better spent on educational efforts. AES, which serves audio engineers and those in the "allied arts," does not keep any more recent statistics on women producers, either, although a separate representative told HuffPost that 7 percent of AES members are women.
The number aiming to enter the field may be slightly higher. Susan Rogers, former producer for Prince and current professor at the Berklee College of Music, which offers a major in music production and engineering, put the number of women in those classes at around 10 to 15 percent. But in professional studios, there are signs that there are even fewer women that that.
Asked how many female producers she knew of, Shakari Linder, a female music producer who goes by TRAKGIRL and has earned credits with Timbaland and Omarion, among others, told HuffPost, "I can count on my hand, actually — probably five."
Early on, Linder explained how she built mental "armor" to defend against subtle accusations against her professional abilities.
"Coming up, some men view women as, 'Oh, they don't know what they're talking about,'" she said. "Once you hit that play button, it's a whole different story."
While there is an undeniable lack of female producers, any attempt to count their number would likely be complicated by the absence of any agreed-upon definition of what a "producer" does. Some involved in the production of audio identify as "engineers" taking on sound boards, while others have little technical expertise, focusing more on fostering working relationships between other producers. Still others might also be considered musicians. Some who do production work, including some women, therefore may not self-identify as such.
Album credits full of male names may also create the false perception of a male-only field that precludes women from joining in or getting credit when they do. Sisk recalled an incident where, after a week of recording, editing and mixing an artist's work in the small confines of a studio, the artist sounded shocked to hear that she was actually serving as the audio engineer on his album. (Upon its release, she wasn't credited.)
Claiming a producer credit for oneself can take a lot of confidence, according to Esthero, a singer who involves herself in every aspect of production. That's a bold quality that she believes may not always come naturally.
"I have the audacity to call myself a producer," Esthero explained. "I have the ego to be like, 'Wait a minute! I did that. I participated in that. I made those choices. All those compliments you're getting — I did that!'"
WAM, which counts about 850 women members, is one of a small handful of organizations working to ensure women consider audio recording a viable career option, having trained thousands of women over the past decade and placed them in professional roles. Another women-focused organization, Women in Music, offers panel discussions and networking events for women involved in music as producers, managers, attorneys and label executives.
It will take many more women to consider a career in music production for the gender imbalance to right itself. But changing the perception of behind-the-board roles as the realm of men is also a much-needed step.
In an interview with NPR, the singer Claire Boucher, who goes by Grimes, explained how making songs with other people is a gendered experience. Women, historically, create the "top line," or vocal melodies, while men take care of the beats. Despite her experience in production, Boucher said she wasn't allowed to touch a computer in those cooperative songwriting environments.
"I came in with experience as a producer and I wasn't allowed to produce — so how could any woman who didn't have experience as a producer ever learn how to produce?" Boucher told NPR. "If there are stereotypes of, 'Women do certain jobs in music and men do certain jobs,' the way the studio works, it's not easy to escape that."

There is Nothing Dead in This Grandiose Former Funeral Establishment of the City of Paris.
Art Galore.
The 104, as it is called, spelled out in French as Le Centquatre-Paris, is a multimedia art center partly funded by the city of Paris. Located in a vast compound of gigantic halls and structures, it houses dance floors, exhibit halls, stores, libraries, workshop classes and stages. Calling itself an artistic and cultural factory, the place is geared towards public service — Art as a public service is definitely a great concept!
On any given day a buzz of artists, dancers, yogis, actors, painters, sculptors, fill the cavernous space with laughter and life. Visitors pop up at the arts library, shoppers stroll through the Emmaus thrifstore. It's at the same time neighborhoods hang-out for young skaters, and an elite art space for openings and happenings.
Its success is real and tangible. You can witness art in various forms glow right under your eyes, and see how art really is a street expression in its best form. Over 60 percent of the performing artists at the 104 are not French.
The fall schedule of exhibition is heavy with many new shows coming up: dance performances, visual arts, circus acts, theater and music fests. Solo acts or ensemble pieces, no matter what month you are able to go, several art forms will be on display or happening, including a ball in April open to all. About 50 artists in residence are planned to offer their creations for the 2015-2016 season.
An official opening was held Sept. 26 to present the 25,000 square feet of available galleries and open spaces to the public for the new season. On Oct. 3, a Nuit Blanche (White Night) is planned, when the space will stay open all night. The calendar is so full of events that it would be impossible to see and hear everything offered to each senses.
Les Pompes-Funèbres : From Death to Life.
Located on the site of a former municipal undertaker, the name comes from the original entrance's address, at 104 rue d'Aubervilliers. This was not the mom and pop funeral home where one would visit one deceased family member in a flower-filled room and weep. This was where hundreds of horse-drawn hearses used to park and be maintained. Now an artistic factory, it churns out events and gatherings at a vertiginous speed.
The buildings were erected in 1873 by the diocese, ruled by religious staff; later on, with the separation of state and church, the city created in 1905 the Service municipal des pompes funèbres (Municipal Service of Funeral Process), considered at the times as a liberal progress, as it meant that from then on, regardless of religion or condition, everyone was due a proper funeral.
Before that, divorced women, suicide victims, atheists, all were to be buried at night without any dignified ceremony or family members present. The municipal monopole was taking care of everything, from coffins to hearses, from porters to cemeteries. One of the important rituals after a death was to wrap the front door of the building where the deceased laid with massive black curtains on each side of the front door – those were called the pompes.
This black veil was used until the 1980s. The Municipal Monopole was still in practice until the middle of 1997. Since then, the ceremonial is now left to family and private companies.
At the Pompes Funèbres, 27,000 hearses were in use, with a staff of 1,400, only forty of which were women. Carpenters, wood workers, steel workers, mechanics, auto body specialists, seamstresses, cooks for the on-site workers' cafeteria. Civil servants, horse caterers and other employees were lodged on the premises. There was even a football team, musicians, and firefighters dedicated to the ensemble of constructions. The funeral parlor did not handle corpses – that was done in private parlors. Except in times of war, when the bodies of soldiers were given back to their families.
Creativity at its Best.
So the place was truly always alive (pun intended) in a way, but for some 15 years when it was closed down, before the re-birth as an art center in 2008. When I last visited at the beginning of September, I saw several artists using the multi-levels center floor as a dance stage and yoga space, kids running around huge sculptures, workers having a sandwich on beach chairs, the feel of community involvement was very tangible.
At each end of the space giant art pieces jetted to the open sky – this is a place that could easily accommodate one of Louise Bourgeois giant spider sculptures. Not every art space can. An enormous funky piece made of hundreds of bicycles wheels and frames in a sculpture by Chinese Al Weiwei named "Stacked" was taking one end of the forum – representing the transportation mode of his native country, while a metal snake of rust-color boxes was being installed for the upcoming vernissage.
Concerts for all ages and all style are planned for the fall schedule. Several art shows will also open at the various venues encompassed in the buildings. It's a real artistic community all housed under one roof. A glass roof that is.
The architecture is reminiscent of the former market halles (market halls) that were once famously popular in the center of the capital. Why waste beautiful edifices? The eco friendly turn-around of the classic buildings is a testament of the creativity of its new users, all artists.
Side Shows.
A food truck selling pizzas is permanently parked inside the Centquatre. The Emmaus store resales clothes and furniture pieces at very low prices, and involves members of the community to work there. Canvas beach chairs invite people to lounge at will. Several corners are meant to be used as sitting areas, or even picnic settings.
The café's menu is full of childhood favorites, such as toasts, soft eggs, fries and milk-shakes. It is named the Café Caché (the Hidden Café). Another resting place for food is the Grand Central restaurant, the loft-like space offering traditional French dishes at a medium range price – think sausage and lentils, beef cheeks, mussels and fries, rabbit with granny smith apples, steak with Béarnaise sauce, etc..
The CentQuatre had a challenge — to fill the enormous spaces spread on several city blocks, and despite its sheer size, the place works — it is both a community haven and a convivial space for all. Despite being located in an untrendy area of Paris, that has not stopped Parisians of every corner to make the trip for the sake of art. Over half a million visitors/spectators came by last year. Bravo!
If you go:
Le CentQuatre is at 5 rue Curial, Paris 75019.
Open Tuesday-Friday noon-7 p.m. Weekends 11 a.m.-7 p.m. Closed Monday.
Métro stop: Riquet.
Bus 54 or 60.

Is There Anything Spiritual About Mindfulness?
These days mindfulness is the buzzword. Celebrities such as Goldie Hawn, Richard Gere and Tina Turner have been some of it's strongest proponents. Mindfulness seems to be embraced in the west, more as a practice and discipline rather than as a religion, although its origin is in Buddhism. But does mindfulness have a spiritual and transformational quality to it?
To explore this, I spoke with Santikaro (Robert Larson), who had trained under the famous Thai Buddhist teacher, Buddhadasa Bhikku. According to him, in the west, there are three forms that mindfulness has been shaped into. He refers to the first usage of it, primarily at large corporations, as McMindfulness. Like MacDonald food, it is fast, convenient and does the job. However, Santikaro questions the ethical and long-term value of this form of mindfulness, particularly when it is encouraged by managers in order to get results from employees. The workers who do practice it under such influence may not get the right long term results from such practices as their understanding of it remains limited.
The second form of mindfulness that is justifiably popular is referred to as therapeutic mindfulness. In recent times, Jon Kabat-Zinn, has championed the efforts to bring a scientifically researched and medically applicable usage to mindfulness. The program called Mindfulness based stress reduction (MBSR) has been proven to bring relief to many people struggling with psychological distress and chronic illnesses.
The third form of mindfulness that we discussed (as seen in the video below), is the pristine form with its potential for complete inner freedom. Practiced correctly, mindfulness can lead to insight into the human condition and free us from our inner struggles and conflicts in life. If there is anything spiritual about mindfulness, then it is the ability to free us from the grasp of our own ego. This is the summon bonum, the lofty goal of most spiritual traditions.
Santikaro describes this form of mindfulness as a natural and effortless practice, not one forced on by an "egoic doer." For instance, when we bring awareness to our breathing without clinging to the one who is breathing or when we observe the nature around us without the sense of an observer, then there is a moment of true mindfulness, the recognition of what can be called as "emptiness." In such a practice of mindfulness, the experience of every moment can be deepened by the natural "recollection" of emptiness.
So going back to the question, "Is there anything spiritual about mindfulness?" In the two earlier forms of its practice, the purpose of practicing mindfulness is motivated by certain personal goals.
Nevertheless if it fulfills the criteria of being a tangible measure to spirituality in daily life by offering a superior quality of awareness in every moment, then it is a worthy practice. But to truly experience mindfulness with its fullest potential, one has to transcend the egoic intention and relinquish the "I" and "Mine" related to the experience, as these are the obstacles on our path to freedom.
Santikaro talks about the time that he asked Buddhadasa, his teacher, if he was enlightened. Buddhadasa replied to him, "who is there to be enlightened." Perhaps in this response is the key to the right attitude towards this potentially liberating practice.

I've Cycled Through There
That strangest of traveller, the lone female, is at it again. This time cycling through the heart of England from Bath to London to her home in Lancashire. For such a small country England was proving to be a land of contrasts and surprises; from the leafy lanes of Berkshire to the bleak moorlands of the north, spectacular scenery and post-industrial mill towns, dead divas and murderous mad men. Throughout the six hundred mile cycle ride there was much that was quintessentially English: Georgian architecture and thatched cottages, William Shakespeare and Samuel Johnson, Bath buns and Yorkshire pudding, canals and Roman roads, Magna Carta and the Houses of Parliament, oh, and Maharajah's Wells and teams of huskies! Share the experience, the food, the fun and the frustrations. Funny and factual by turns, this is a true account of a cycle journey home through the heart of England.

Check out what we found in Forever 21's Branded Shop.
Blessed Are the Meek Open-Knit Midi Dress, $ 180, forever21.com
According to a brand spokesperson, the Forever 21 shop-in-shop experience launched in November 2014 (quietly, we might add) with approximately 20 non-Forever 21 labels. To date, there are currently more than 100—and more to follow. They range from more well-known names such as Dolce Vita, Ban.do, and Happy Socks, to up-and-coming brands like Amber Sceats, Rise of Dawn, and Clashist.
While Forever 21 isn't the first brand to make retail partnerships work—J.Crew's In Good Company collective started back in 2007 and Target launched a limited partnership with brands called The Shops at Target in 2012—it is interesting to see the company diversify its offerings past what we've known for almost 20 years.

Christian Siriano Is Lane Bryant's Newest Guest Designer: But Will There Be Ball Gowns?
With the recent runaway success of its I'm No Angel campaign, Lane Bryant has the fashion industry buzzing. And the plus-size retailer is hoping to keep that momentum going through next year, with today's announcement that Christian Siriano will become its newest guest designer.
The Project Runway alum, known for his curve-hugging red carpet gowns, will launch a capsule collection for the specialty retailer, which will bow in spring 2016. Siriano joins the ranks of Bryant's former designer collaborators such as Isabel Toledo, Sophie Theallet, and Lela Rose.
Stars in Christian Siriano: Juliette Lewis, Christina Hendricks, Heidi Klum.
"Fashion should never be defined by size," Siriano said in a statement about the collection, which will range in size from 14 to 28. "Regardless if it's for red carpet or a day at the office, every woman should feel stylish and comfortable in their clothes. I'm excited about this partnership with Lane Bryant because it allows me the opportunity to showcase my designs on the everyday woman and allow them the opportunity to feel as beautiful and fashionable as possible."
Watch this space to see photos of the collection when it launches!

Paul McCartney And Dave Grohl Performed Beatles' Classic 'I Saw Her Standing There'
What would it sound like if the Beatles reached nirvana? Probably a lot like Dave Grohl performing a Beatles song with Paul McCartney.
During McCartney's show at London's O2 Arena on Saturday night, the former Nirvana drummer joined the former Beatle for a performance of "I Saw Her Standing There," from the Beatles' debut album, "Please Please Me." This isn't the first time McCartney and Grohl have performed the song, though. The two previously played the Beatles' classic at the 2009 Grammy Awards, with Grohl on the drums.
McCartney and Grohl also previously worked together on "Cut Me Some Slack" from the soundtrack to Grohl's documentary "Sound City." The track, which they worked on with Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear, earned them the Best Rock Song award at the 56th annual Grammys.
Saturday night's London show also came with another big surprise. McCartney played "Temporary Secretary" from his album "McCartney II," which Rolling Stone has called one of "the 12 weirdest Paul McCartney songs." It was McCartney's first live performance of the song since its release in 1980.
McCartney is playing a second show at the O2 Arena again on Sunday, so more surprises are likely in store.

Finding the Answer That's Been There All Along: How to Discover the Direction With Wings
True desire is where everything begins.
I have a story to share with you about decorating my living room that isn't really about decorating my living room. It's about a miracle. It's about getting unstuck. It's about your career, your marriage, your weight, or maybe your living room.
I had been looking at my living room for months, feeling meh on the high end of the spectrum, and I am suffering a small plague on the other. Hoping for creative ideas, I started looking at houses online, even homes in other states. It felt a little bit like scoping out Match.com while your husband gropes through the refrigerator, commenting on how you could arrange the shelves differently. Romantic walks on beaches. I'd be checking out the dimensions of that living room, then noticing my own. I quickly learned, that every living room looks great with 900-foot ceilings or wall to wall windows and an ocean view. I have neither.
Paul, my partner, started dreaming about ripping up the ceiling and creating a loft above. Awesome, but way beyond what my overwhelmed mind and bank account had in mind. Realizing that really remodeling was just creating stress, Paul offered magic words: "What if there's just one simple thing you can do, just to change the energy? What if there's one thing that starts moving us in the right direction?" So I started looking around and imagining a new shade of paint, couch, or an unusual light fixture. But nothing clicked.
I felt tangled and impatient, a bad combination for courting revelations. Maybe you've felt this, with more important life decisions: I wanted change, but I didn't want to put time into it. I wanted change, but I didn't want to put money into it. I wanted change, but I didn't even know what I really wanted to do. Pity our psychotherapists and God.
So I returned to my original desire. I want this room to feel great to me. That's all I knew. "Don't think about this room," Paul suggested. "Just think about what would feel like what you want."
I started thinking about what did feel great. I have a back room, an extension to our home built back in the 1920s. I love its energy. It's got a quirky, formidable, black wood burning stove on its own little brick platform. But the best part of that room is an entire wall of exposed brick, uneven texture and happiness, worn solidity and a poetic karma you can't find in new construction. I fell in love with that room years ago, winking its old house charm at me. It's why I bought the house.
"I'd love something like that, an exposed brick wall," I said to Paul, as though he could magically order one up out of a Home Beautiful catalog and have it shipped or maybe blink his eyes like a cartoon genie. It was preposterous. True desires often are.
But you know how when you start to focus on something you want, you start to notice all the reasons you want it? I began to notice movie scenes with people who had cool lives and living rooms. They often had exposed brick walls. Naturally this meant they had superior conversations, cheese, sex, iPads and income levels. It was just subliminal shorthand.
One day, standing in the living room, I was again talking to Paul about painting walls. Paul looked like he wasn't listening (which by the way would never happen to people who lived in cool living rooms). He was staring at the fireplace in the living room and the large plaster wall (which I'd painted purple, "blueberry yogurt" says a friend) above it. It jutted out from the rest of the blueberry yogurt walls. "You know," he began. "That wall that juts out is probably plaster over the chimney to the fireplace." He stared intently. "Mmm," I said as though he was beginning to explain the periodic tables to me, when, really, I was more interested in end tables.
"Well, if it is the original chimney to the house, then it's probably brick." I still didn't follow his thinking yet, because, there is the small possibility that I was too busy judging him. So he spelled it out. "If we break off that plaster wall, you might have an exposed brick wall."
Could it be? I was afraid to get my hopes up. But even the thought of the possibility was a rush. We decided to try our theory. We have a large wooden Buddha face from a Thai temple who hangs on the wall above the fireplace. We decided to poke a tiny hole in the plaster wall, figuring that even if we were wrong, Buddha could hide the emptiness and imperfection. It seemed appropriate.
Paul chipped away a hole, kind of like a baby bird pecking through a shell. Sure enough, there was a tiny hint of red brick, a rustic ruby, peeking back at us from the hole. It was like a bindi, the holy red dot on an Indian woman's forehead, and to me, it was every bit as devotional. I gasped. My crazy, improbable desire might actually come true.
The next day, after an all-day meeting, I came home to find Paul covered in the white dust of plaster. He looked like a crazed baker. He smiled at me as I beheld his "cake." We had an exposed brick wall above the fireplace. Worn out brick. Textured brick. Brick that changed the whole vibe of the living room, even more than I imagined. I couldn't believe it. Who needed a fantasy genie or a stinking catalog? Real life was the real miracle.
The answer had been there all along. It had always been there. I've lived in this house for 17 years. It's always been there. This house is over 100 years old. Really, it's always been there. But I never would have discovered it if I kept looking at the room I thought was there. In A Course in Miracles, there is the teaching that a miracle is about "undoing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence." In English, that means a miracle, the presence of a loving perspective or resolution, is always present. But you have a belief in the way. You have an assumption in the way. You have a way of seeing in the way. I had a thick purple plaster wall in the way.
I was trying to decorate the room I believed existed. But it was only when I asked what I really wanted that I found a direction that had wings. It wasn't about fitting a solution into my existing circumstances. It was about finding an answer or direction that changed my existing circumstances. So, are you ready to design your life? Never mind your current situation. What do you really want?
As a creative career and success coach, I see this repeatedly. I ask someone, "What do you love to do?" They tell me "I have an MBA and I'm in advertising." Or "I'm a paralegal." They tell me what they've been. What they're trained for. Their age. They do not tell me about the destiny that is hunting them down. They do not initially admit that they'd like to leave it all and ride an elephant in Thailand. They do not mention the movie script that runs in their veins. Or their instinct to start a foundation.
"What do you love?" I ask. They treat me like I'm pretending to be Santa Claus, despite the fact that I am Jewish as well as serious as chicken soup about this question. I know that their real desire is the only way we will ever find the truth. The truth is there. The truth has energy to take them into the fierce lives in which they belong. Every limit they believe is true, will bow before the real truth within them. There is a truth. There is always a truth.
There is always a brick wall underneath your plaster. There is always the presence of everything you want, covered by the familiar. It's waiting for you. It's been there all along. There's an astonishment beneath your confusion and habitual way of thinking. There is another way to see this situation. Let go of your grip on what you think the situation is. There is always love awaiting you, beyond every single fear.
Hey, want to discover more about YOUR true desire? Join me for a FREE coaching call "Your Desire is Your Destiny: How to Get There!" on May 13th (or sign up to get the recording) It's my gift to you, awesome one. Who else do you know that might enjoy/need this? Please share the mojo because we want to create a world where everyone is doing what they're meant to do. "See" you there!

There's no doubt about it, having your pet in your wedding is super cute.

Even if your pet can't attend the wedding, they can still play a special role in your wedding day. From photobooth prop cardboard cutouts to custom pet cufflinks and even desserts in the shape of your pet, see some of our favorite creative ways you can include your pet in your wedding day below.

God Told David Oyelowo He Would Play Martin Luther King, But He Didn't Stop There
David Oyelowo hasn't been shy about discussing how God spoke to him in 2007 and said the actor would eventually play Martin Luther King Jr. in what would become "Selma."
"The reason I'm talking about that is because I'm as shocked as anyone else may be that this British guy is playing Martin Luther King," Oyelowo, who was born in England, said during a recent interview. "Certainly back then, in 2007, I had done none of the movies people have now seen me do now."
At the time, Oyelowo — who has since starred in "Lee Daniels' The Butler," "Jack Reacher," "The Help" and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" — was a relative unknown. But it was another obstacle separating him from King that proved more difficult to overcome: Stephen Frears. Back then, the director was attached to "Selma" and didn't think Oyelowo was right for the part. In the ensuing seven years, however, Frears left and multiple directors nearly stepped into his place (including Spike Lee and Paul Haggis). In 2010, Lee Daniels came onboard and, after working with Oyelowo on"Lee Daniels' The Butler," cast the actor as King. The tumultuous development process didn't end there: Daniels dropped out because of scheduling conflicts. That's when Oyelowo suggested another former collaborator: Ava DuVernay, with whom Oyelowo had made the 2012 indie film "Middle of Nowhere."
"There was so much faith that had to be employed that this thing was going to happen," Oyelowo said. "Virtually every day between that moment [when God spoke] to me and now, I did everything I could to make this thing happen."
Now that it has, Oyelowo has received the best reviews of his career for playing King. The performance earned him a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama, and it has Oyelowo in the middle of a crowded group of contenders vying for an Oscar nomination. "Selma," meanwhile, stands as one of the year's best films, a timely and insightful drama that says as much about Martin Luther King's struggle to get equal voting rights in 1965 as it does about the Millions March in 2014.
Oyelowo spoke to HuffPost Entertainment about "Selma," working with DuVernay and what it was like to meet King's children.
You've talked about hearing a higher calling to play this role all the way back in 2007. Does that kind of connection with God extend through the production as well?
What I couldn't have anticipated is how much I needed, to be perfectly frank, God's help in the playing of it. Not least because this was a man of God. This was someone, if you've seen him giving those speeches, there is something flowing through him other than himself. He is flowing in his anointing. I needed that. I like to think of myself as a good actor, but Martin Luther King, I ain't! If you're going to go and shoot in Atlanta, in a historical church, with 500 people who are from Atlanta, you need a little help from above. So I definitely felt I had that.
Watch Oyelowo in an exclusive clip from "Selma"
During that seven year period from when you first read the script and now, was playing Dr. King something you thought about every day, or is that impossible?
The first thing I can say to you is that it's very possible to think about playing Martin Luther King every single day for seven years. I'm living evidence of that. There is never going to be a time in your life as an actor where you're going to go, "Oh yeah, I'm ready to play Dr. King now." But between doing the work in quiet and then, the films that presented themselves to me, I prepared. Playing a Union solider in "Lincoln," playing a preacher in "The Help," playing a black fighter pilot in "Red Tails," playing the son of a butler in "Lee Daniels' The Butler," who is in the Freedom Riders and becomes a Black Panther: these were all films in which I had to go study the history. Inevitably they were part of what informed playing Dr. King. Now, were they opportunities that were divinely presented to me or was I just continually drawn to that material because of what was going on in my head? That I can't really say. But I do know that so many different aspects of my life went into what you see in the film. Plus, I was now the age Dr. King was when these things happened in his life. When I first read the script, I had two kids; when we shot it, I had four kids, like he did. There were so many things I matured into by the time I played the role.
Dr. King is, relatively speaking, a young man during the events of "Selma," but he looks 10-15 years older than his actual age. How did you manage the physical transformation this role required?
Again, we're back to the spiritual side of things. People like to talk about the weight gain and the voice, but that's what we do as actors; that's the first rung of what you need to do if you're going to play someone like this. But it was the emotional and spiritual weight of what this man did and had to go through that was tough. At that stage in his life, to have spent 10 years under threat — and not only his life, but his kids' lives, his wife's life. Having all these people depend on him. Being a voice for the voiceless. Being someone who has seen people die because of this cause. And not just because racist people have killed them, but because he went to places where he tried to have racists act out in front of the cameras, and then people get hurt. In Selma, people died. That weighs on you. If you're mentally placing yourself in that space, it does something to you physically. When I watch him, you can see there is a burden. You can see that he looks and feels older than he was. He was 36 at this stage. That is crazy. That had to be one of the things I tried to bring to it.
You recommended Ava to direct this film. Having worked with her on "Middle of Nowhere," what surprised you about her transition to this kind of bigger material?
When we worked together on "Middle Of Nowhere" I saw her talent is undeniable. One of the privileges I've had in doing some of those films I mentioned is working with Steven Spielberg and other incredible directors. I was on the set with Ava, and she is just as good. I think the unique thing about her — and what she brought to "Selma" that was so incredible — was the ease with which she went into a film that was 100 times the budget of the last thing she had done. There were so many more people, so many more elements, it was much bigger in size, but she never panicked. She never shouted. She never threw a chair. She never compromised her vision. That went through the post-production side of things as well. To be a visionary, you have to be single minded. She has that without being, to be perfectly honest, an unpleasant person. That's very rare! Often being single-minded is combined with being a bit of a nightmare to be around. She's just not that.
It's impossible to discuss "Selma" without mentioning how timely it is in its scenes of protest and police brutality. How do you think "Selma" fits in with the events that have occurred over the last month?
Well, we're back to the divide, aren't we? If you were ever going to have a moment in time when this film should come out in the 50 years since these events happened, it would be now. Not only would it be now, it would be now now. It would be this month. We would be having this conversation today. You can't tell me between everything we've discussed already to when the film is being released to the fact that it's a black woman who has made this — just in terms of where we are in history and how beautiful a thing that is — that it's not divine timing. Whether you believe in that stuff or not, I truly believe the reason why this film is so pertinent for right now is that it shows this isn't the first time. It shows that we are not a new generation for this and also how it was successfully dealt with. Peaceful protest. Strategy. Using the power of the image to bring the world together. That's what happened in a sense.
Ferguson, I feel, was deemed a "black problem." Eric Garner became an American problem. That's the power of the image. Seeing him murdered onscreen has been the thing that has brought America and the world together to protest. Seeing Bloody Sunday on the Edmund Pettus Bridge is what brought the nation together, black and white, in 1965. The difference is that was about voting rights, and this is about police reform. There had to be federal intervention with voting rights; the federal government is stalling on intervening on this, to bring in independent bodies to police the police. It's just clear that's what is needed. No matter what they say about how difficult that is because it's states' rights. It was states' rights with voting. It's crazy how similar it is.
"Selma" cast wears "I Can't Breathe" t-shirts to protest the death of Eric Garner at the New York Public Library on Dec. 14, 2014
Did you get to meet anyone close to Dr. King in preparation for the role?
I met every one of his children and spoke with them. I actually became quite friendly with Dexter Scott King, his second son. I met Martin Luther King III. I actually didn't meet Bernice King until the Friday before we were going to start shooting. I bumped into her at the King Center, if you would believe it — again, the divine! I was with a group of the actors who were going to be in the film, and she went up to everyone, deliberately leaving me to last. "So, who you playing?" she said. I was like, "Oh. My. Lord." Dr. King's voice is pretty deep, but I was like, in a high-pitched voice, "I'm going to be playing your daddy." It was as bad as it could be. But by the time we finished our conversation, she ended up praying with me and giving me her blessing to play her dad. She and her elder brother saw the film recently and were very complimentary about it. She said mine is the best interpretation of her dad she's seen. I will take it.
After seven years of having this role in your life, did you feel any letdown or hangover after you moved on to the next job?
There was no letdown. I was very happy to let this guy go. I wouldn't say it was a burden, because I felt so privileged to do it, but there were moments where it was a real crossover. I stayed in character for the three months we were doing this. I, for one second, wouldn't say I was him for that time, but I felt a little bit of what it may have been like. Just because you have to take it on. He lived through 13 years of that. I was very happy to walk away. I tell you that much.

Was There Really a Need For 'Dolphin Tale 2'?
Now we have a sequel to the popular film Dolphin Tale. The question is why? The first movie was pretty complete in its story of a dolphin named Winter who had lost her dorsal fin. Her rescuers created a prosthesis for her and she adapted to it beautifully. And she lived happily ever after – end of story. No, no! Not when that movie made a good bit of money and there was surely more loot in that dolphin. So now we have Dolphin Tale 2, the story of Winter when she got depressed over not having a dolphin friend.
All of the cast from the previous movie are back including Ashley Judd, Harry Connick,Jr., Morgan Freeman and Kris Kristofferson. The question is why. They have very little to do in this film. Their characters are basically just there to give support to the two kids who have leading roles. These are Nathan Gamble and Cozi Zuehlsdorff who play Sawyer and Hazel.
Sawyer works at the Clearwater Marine Hospital where Winter lives and is cared for. Hazel is the daughter of Dr. Clay Haskett (Connick) who runs the hospital. They are devoted to Winter and become most upset when Winter shows signs of being depressed because she does not have another dolphin to pal around with. They have a solution but it is not one the adults are willing to use.
The storyline is one children should enjoy, and it will entertain the adults that accompany them. It is not high drama but it is sufficiently interesting. Supposedly this plot is also based on a true occurrence and that fact also interest.
The two young actors are very good in their roles and the dolphins play out the roles they have been given. Even the adult actors are fine, though they are given little to do. Judd is appropriately maternal while Connick is a bit stiff as the head operator of the hospital. Freeman gets to play the amiable man who helped fashion Winter's prostheses.
The film is rated PG for mild drama with the animals.
There probably wasn't a real need for a sequel to Dolphin Tale. It had told its story pretty completely.
However, since they were determined to make another one they did make it as appealing as possible. Children will once again delight in a story about dolphins being so human-like they need a friend, and will enjoy the fact that good humans are there to provide them with love, care and attention.
I scored Dolphin Tale 2 a sequeled 6 out of 10.

There Is Still Time To See Belle, and You Should
There is s till time for you to see Belle in a movie theater. This quietly appreciated film is still holding at several screens across the country. Since its release several weeks ago it has either been in the top ten grossing movies or hovering about it. Still, figures show, there are many, many of you who have not taken the opportunity to see it – and you should.
If you liked Pride and Prejudice you will like Belle. If you liked Twelve Years A Slave you will like Belle. If you like Downton Abbey you will like Belle. If you just like good movies then you are bound to like Belle. This movie is a perfect mix of a good story, an amazing cast, and a spectacular sense of time and place.
At the heart of the film is the performance of Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Dido Belle. She inhabits this role like a second skin; bringing beauty, wisdom and sensitivity to the part. She is the "star" of the show but she is surrounded by a host of supporting actors who all do their best to present her at her best. Among those lending support are Tom Wilkinson, Emily Watson, Penelope Wilton, Sarah Gadon, Natasha Richardson, Tom Felton and many more.
Based on true events, the movie tells the story of Dido Elizabeth Belle and it is an amazing one. She is the daughter of a white British naval officer and a slave. When her mother dies her father (Matthew Goode) seeks her out. He arranges for her to live with his uncle and aunt (Wilkinson and Watson) while he is at sea. Her relatives are also rearing another niece, Sarah (Gadon).
Dido is raised as someone of class and distinction thought there are limits that are imposed because of her race. Her uncle is a prestigious judge and so her presence is accepted much more easily than it otherwise would have.
Dido slips easily into her role as the judge's niece and enjoys most of what life offers her. But as she gets older she begins to see the horrors of slavery and the oppression of women in general. She makes the acquaintance of a man named John (Sam Reid) who is a progressive thinker. He is not of her class level as he is the son of a preacher, a person generally dismissed from high society echelons.
Watching Dido's life evolve is fascinating, and when you throw in a tumultuous romance it is a must see. From the first second of the film till its last, this is a movie that will transport you to the mid 1700's and hold you in awe of its look and its message.
The movie is rated PG for adult situations.
Gugu Mbatha-Raw is a star on the rise. This movie should put her name and her face on the Hollywood map. It completely showcases her talent and she rises to every challenge the film offers.
If you have not yet seen Belle don't delay another day. It is one of the best movies of the year and you don't want to let it slip by unseen.
I scored Belle a ringing 9 out of 10.

Are We There Yet?: Virtual Travel and Victorian Realism connects the Victorian fascination with "virtual travel" with the rise of realism in 19th-century fiction and 21st-century experiments in virtual reality. Even as the expansion of river and railway networks in the 19th century made travel easier than ever before, staying at home and fantasizing about travel turned into a favorite pastime. New ways of representing place—360-degree panoramas, foldout river maps, exhaustive railway guides—offered themselves as substitutes for actual travel. Thinking of these representations as a form of "virtual travel" reveals a surprising continuity between the Victorian fascination with imaginative dislocation and 21st-century efforts to use digital technology to expand the physical boundaries of the self.

Public Art: Here, There, Everywhere
It's not that often that we Angelinos park our cars and just walk. Several weeks ago, I found myself strolling through Downtown LA rediscovering, to my delight, a treasure trove of public art, which I talked about in a recent program. The audience response was surprisingly enthusiastic.
Glorya wrote, "Loved them all, and have never seen any of them… So many of us are always in a hurry and really do not take the time. Terrible shame." Ann said, "…this city really IS such a great adventure." And Yassmin sent me a note saying, "I will be taking a tour of Citigroup Center very soon. I had no idea this wonderful art was in my backyard!" Inspired by these responses, I decided to spend more time driving and walking through the nooks and crannies of LA in search of art in public spaces.
Visiting the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena always puts me in a particularly good mood. Some of the most famous bronze sculptures by Rodin greet visitors at the museum's entrance, including his The Burghers of Calais and Monument to Balzac. These sculptures are installed to maximum effect amidst the beautifully designed landscape. It's interesting that another cast of Rodin's Balzac can be seen at LACMA's campus, though there, it is shown to a much lesser effect, being overwhelmed by nearby Chris Burden's massive Urban Light.
I wonder how many of you have ever walked in front of Pasadena's City Hall. The last time I did it was 15 years ago, when the new, gigantic sculptural portraits of Jackie Robinson and his brother Mack were unveiled there as a part of the Pasadena Robinson Memorial, a collaboration of three artists: Ralph Helmick, John Outterbridge, and Stuart Schechter. Somehow, I forgot how monumental these portraits are. Each of them is nine feet high and weighs 2,700 pounds. It is no surprise that people are constantly snapping photos of themselves in front of these formidable sculptures.
Not far away, in walking distance from Pacific Asia Museum, I literally stumbled upon the impressive life-size bronze sculpture of Christ being nailed to the cross. One wouldn't be surprised to see such work standing proudly in front or inside of a church. But here, on the pavement in front of a modest-looking building, the crucifix is placed almost flat on the ground. Christ is held and pressed down by two figures, one of them poised to strike the final nail into Jesus' hand. I looked around for a nameplate to identify the sculptor, but could not find it. After a little bit of research, I found out that the sculpture was commissioned by Fuller Theological Seminary and created by LA-based artist, Christopher Slatoff. So, I not only found an interesting public artwork, but also learned about Fuller Theological Seminary, with its beautifully landscaped campus.
Driving through Downtown LA along Main Street, I saw a rather dramatic mural of a single, moody cartoon-like figure decorating the wall of a rather nondescript commercial building. It was impressive enough to make me stop and get out of my car to snap some photos. Acclaimed Brazilian artist Claudio Ethos was commissioned a couple of years ago to make this 60 by 80 foot mural, which took him five days to complete – using spray cans, a few rollers, and only two colors.
Then, later in the evening, driving along Santa Monica Boulevard in Beverly Hills, I was struck by two sculptures – installed and lit to the maximum effect. In the daytime, it is easy to miss them, but at night they really shine. One of them is a figure of a sitting man, whose translucent body looks as if it's made from metal lace. This is a sculpture by internationally known Catalan artist, Jaume Plensa.
A few steps away, there is a large, playful painted sculpture of twisting, dancing, and morphing flowers by Japanese artist extraordinaire, Yayoi Kusama, who is alive and kicking at the ripe young age of 84.

Alan Davies: How Long is a Piece of String?
Yesterday's lackluster Academy Awards ceremony may have afforded you some unexpected time for contemplating life's more urgent questions, such as the one British comedian Alan Davies pursues above: How long is a piece of string? Watch Davies, who is also a frequent panelist on the popular Stephen Fry-hosted quiz show Quite Interesting, explore the riddle's philosophical implications and inevitable connection to string theory with the help of physics, quantum mechanics, and finally a visit with mathematician Marcus de Sautoy. Fans of the Davies/du Sautoy interaction may also want to check out Du Sautoy's TED talk on Symmetry, as well as the debates in that video's comments section. More docs can be found in our collection of 200+ Free Documentaries, part of our larger collection, 1,150 Free Movies Online: Great Classics, Indies, Noir, Westerns, etc..
Mad Men brings us back to a bygone era, the early 60s, when alcohol flowed freely throughout the working day. (Watch this montage to get up to speed.) An act of historical revisionism, many might think. But, apparently not so. According to a piece in The New York Times, the show basically gets it right. Alcohol was as common in offices as office supplies. And then we have this: Gay Talese, the bestselling author and journalist, remembering the Times newsroom during the same era – a crew barely fit to publish the news that's fit to print.
A quick PS: This Soundworks video collection takes you behind the scenes into the audio post-production of feature films, video game sound design, and original soundtrack scoring. Good spot by @sheerly.
Are we obsessed with Facebook? It's hard to argue with the numbers presented visually in this artistic little video by Alex Trimpe. One data point that struck me (if true): 48% of young Americans learn about the news, about what's happening in the world, through Facebook. A big shift in the way information gets into people's hands.
And that's part of a trend we're seeing here too. More and more, Open Culture fans are joining our Facebook page, letting our daily posts trickle into their Facebook News Feeds, then sharing the intelligent media with friends. You can join our Facebook Page here, or also follow us on Twitter where we tweet and re-tweet extra cultural goodies 24/7.
Pete Eckert is blind, totally blind. But his disability (if you can call it that) hasn't stopped him from expressing himself visually. As Pete explains in the video above, he has always been a visual person. And photography has become more than a creative outlet for Pete. It's a personal form of artistic expression, the way he sees the world through sound.
Eckert was named the Grand Prize recipient of Artists Wanted: Exposure in 2008, an international photography competition. You can learn more about Pete Eckert in this video and on his web page.

257.4 Additional property tax.
1. Computation of tax. A school district shall cause an additional property tax to be levied each year. The rate of the additional property tax levy in a school district shall be determined by the department of management and shall be calculated to raise the difference between the combined district cost for the budget year and the sum of the products of the regular program foundation base per pupil times the weighted enrollment in the district and the special education support services foundation base per pupil times the special education support services weighted enrollment in the district.
2. Supplemental aid. However, if the rate of the additional property tax levy determined under subsection 1 with the application of section 257.15 for a budget year for a reorganized school district is higher than the rate of additional property tax levy determined under subsection 1 with the application of section 257.15 for the year previous to the reorganization for a school district that had a certified enrollment of less than six hundred and that was within the school districts affected by the reorganization as defined in section 275.1, the department of management shall reduce the rate of the additional property tax levy in the portion of the reorganized district where the new rate is higher, to the rate that was levied in that portion of the district during the year preceding the reorganization, for a five-year period. The department of management shall include in the state aid payments made to each reorganized school district under section 257.16 during each of the first five years of existence of the reorganized district as supplemental aid, moneys equal to the reduction in property tax revenues made under this subsection. For the budget year beginning July 1, 1991, the base year calculation shall be made using chapter 442, Code 1991.
For purposes of this section, a reorganized school district is one in which action to bring about a reorganization was initiated by a vote of the board of directors or jointly by the affected boards of directors prior to November 30, 1990, and the reorganization will take effect on or after July 1, 1991, and on or before July 1, 1993. Each district which initiated, by a vote of the board of directors or jointly by the affected boards, action to bring about a reorganization or dissolution by November 30, 1990, shall certify the date and the nature of the action taken to the department of education by September 1, 1991.
3. Application of tax. No later than June 1 of each year, the department of management shall notify the county auditor of each county the amount, in dollars and cents per thousand dollars of assessed value, of the additional property tax levy in each school district in the county. A county auditor shall spread the additional property tax levy for each school district in the county over all taxable property in the district.
89 Acts, ch 135, § 4; 91 Acts, ch 178, §2; 93 Acts, ch 1, § 3
Referred to in § 25B.7, 257.2, 257.5, 257.16, 257.31

LONDON - Noel Galliga Low Lying Turds launch its fashion line...(maybe for Chelsea fans?). Come on you'll be successful, winning Drapers awards and all, and challenging Pretty Green (one of the reasons why Oasis split of course eh).
Looks like the bag to go to the supermarket. Please buy them, 'cause Noel's got to pay the lawsuit going on.
I always wondered (sorry for the pun), this song Wonderwall (one of those Noel said he wouldn't have played because sung by Liam), that is famous for being about his ex-wife Meg Mathews, so that he didn't play it for years...now, even Noel's current wife hates Noel's music, is she happy about that song played live?

Milton Glaser is one of my absolute favorites and this article he wrote for AIGA in 2001 is quite amazing. Very insightful.
1 You can only work for people that you like.
2 If you have a choice never have a job.
3 Some people are toxic, avoid them.
4 Professionalism is not enough or The good is the enemy of the great.
5 Less is not necessarily more.
7 How ou live changes you brain.
and here's the whole article. Again, a must read.

Experiment 625, now known as Reuben, is an illegal genetic experiment created by Jumba Jookiba, a frequent henchman of Gantu, and a major character in the Lilo & Stitch franchise, first appearing in Stitch! The Movie. He is designed to be the ultimate monster, but turned out to be one of Jumba's failed prototypes of Stitch and the last known one prior to the creation of 626. He has all of Stitch's powers and is equipped with advanced lingual skills. The main flaw in his programming is laziness; the most strenuous thing he does is make sandwiches, albeit delicious ones. His one true place is with Gantu as his galley officer.
He was voiced by Rob Paulsen in most media. In the Stitch! anime, he was voiced by Dave Wittenberg.

Experiment 625 was the 625th genetic experiment created by Jumba with Hämsterviel's funding. He was designed for Stitch's purpose, but was considered a failed experiment due to his lazy nature. 625 and the previous 624 experiments were deactivated and smuggled to Earth by Jumba during his mission to capture Experiment 626.
Despite having all the powers of Stitch, Reuben is an incredibly lazy coward. However, during the events of Leroy & Stitch, Reuben finally made something of himself and used his powers to help save the entire galaxy. He is actually very humble, friendly, and sympathetic, though often makes wisecracks, but is usually quite crabby toward others when they disturb him (especially Gantu). He has tagged along with Gantu and Dr. Hämsterviel during many villainous plots, but has stated that he doesn't really care who wins.
Reuben constantly insults Gantu's bumbling and incompetent nature, but is sometimes very compassionate and thoughtful towards him and secretly sees him as his best friend and companion. He can also be considered somewhat of a coward, especially when Gantu forces Reuben to battle Stitch on a few occasions. Unlike Gantu, however, Reuben is fearless of Hämsterviel who apparently rejects him due to his laziness, explaining why Gantu has never sent Reuben to him. He also has a rather unusual and bizarre love for sandwiches. Most of the time, he is seen with either a finished sandwich in his hand or making one. His sandwiches are apparently very tasty, as even Gantu asks Reuben for some.
During the course of the series, it has been shown that Reuben secretly sees Stitch as his brother and vice versa. Also, just like Stitch, he has a crush on Angel, therefore making him Stitch's rival for Angel's love. Despite his wisecracks and laziness, Reuben is also shown to have a sensitive side as seen in Leroy & Stitch, when Gantu abandons him and leaves him alone on Earth, causing him to become bitter and lonely.
Aside from this, Reuben is incredibly intelligent and clever, especially when it comes to the experiments. Although he was the second-to-last experiment to be created, Reuben has excessive knowledge of every experiment, even the ones that were created far before his time, such as Ace, most likely due to being Jumba's former assistant. There are also a few instances where Reuben acts like kind of an "inside man" for Lilo and Stitch, like telling Lilo how to beat Experiment 627 (but this was only so 627 would leave him alone, not for the sake of the galaxy).
Reuben is also shown to be inquisitive. In "Babyfier", his curiosity led to him releasing Babyfier from his container on Gantu to find out what Gantu's alien species started out as.
Reuben is a golden yellow (blue in the Disney Adventures magazines), chubby koala/marmot-like experiment that looks like Stitch, with a big head with short ears that flop down at the sides of his head, large black eyes, three small brown-tipped antennae that look like a tuft of fluffy fur, bright yellow stomach, chest and around his eyes, dark yellow toes, big red nose, pointed fingers, short stumpy legs, two brown markings on his back (one hourglass-shaped and an oblong marking above it) and two flat buck teeth sticking out of his mouth and overlapping his bottom lip. He also has brown retractable claws on his front limbs.
He stands slightly shorter than Stitch (their antennae and Stitch ears ignored), but the height difference is very subtle, to the point that animation doesn't seem to depict this well. The anime-based video gam Stitch Jam has arguably the best depiction of their height difference (along with that of Angel and Felix), as on the character select screen for the game's Free Mode and Challenge Mode, Reuben is slightly shorter than Stitch and Felix (both of whom stand at the same height), while Angel is shorter than all three of them.
Reuben possesses all of Stitch's powers, including the ability to grow an extra pair of arms, three back spines and two antennae on top of his head, lift objects up to 3,000 times his own weight, think faster than a supercomputer, roll into a ball, see in the dark, and scale walls and ceilings. He can also speak fluently (with a hint of a Brooklyn accent), though he is capable of understanding Tantalog, his native tongue, and is a very talented sandwich maker (and sandwich eater). Obviously, he is too lazy for much physical combat or use of his powers, and therefore prefers to stand on the sidelines.
Reuben was originally very lazy and cowardly, and is proven to be ticklish when Tickle-Tummy tickle tortures him in the episode "Snafu". Also, he doesn't seem to be anywhere near as durable, suffering fairly painful-looking injuries after being forced to train four henchmen experiments for Gantu in "Dupe". However, as it has been repeatedly stated that he has all of Stitch's powers, he may very well be as durable, and the pain he received may be psychological in nature or from a lack of mental attitude to tolerate pain as well as Stitch. It is uncertain whether or not Reuben shares Stitch's weakness of water, although he doesn't seem to mind being in water as much as Stitch does.
Reuben after his release from his pod in Stitch! The Movie
While Jumba and Pleakley were fighting over the experiment pod container, unseen to them, 625's experiment pod slipped out.
Gantu later discovered the pod while abducting Jumba and took it with him back to Hämsterviel's ship for interrogation.
When Jumba refused to reveal the location of the other experiment pods, Gantu and Hämsterviel decided to activate Experiment 625 (who Jumba stated has all the powers of 626) and use him to torture Jumba. However, Gantu and Hämsterviel were awestruck to discover 625's lazy nature when he was seen making sandwiches instead of tormenting Jumba.
625 later frequently attempted to gain new bologna for his sandwiches, until he was trapped on Earth after Gantu's ship crashed with Gantu and 625 on board.
Reuben as seen in Lilo & Stitch: The Series
625 is still stranded on Earth along with Gantu and spends most of his time relaxing, making sandwiches, and ridiculing Gantu for his frequent failures and bumbling. He turns out to be quite intelligent and gives plenty of information about the experiments to Gantu. He is portrayed as Gantu's wisecracking sidekick and often tags along during experiment hunting.
625 was once commanded by Gantu to battle Stitch, but due to his lazy nature, he did not fight and was easily beaten. Ironically, he used his powers twice in the series: when he climbed up the ship's window and also kicked Gantu across the beach in "Phoon". In addition, he proved to be more tolerant of water than Stitch, such as when he plunged into the ocean to get out of harm's way in "Splodyhead", and when he and Gantu got sunk while aboard different watercraft in "Sinker". In "Mr. Stenchy", 625 was actually jealous of Gantu's affections towards the newfound experiment Mr. Stenchy.
Throughout the series, 625 served as Gantu's reluctant sidekick, although he is usually no help at all, doesn't do anything, messes up Gantu's plans, or even helps Lilo and Stitch against Gantu on some occasions. However, he has helped Gantu in a few episodes.
Reuben in Leroy & Stitch
With Gantu having failed to capture any experiments other than 625 himself, the former abandoned 625 on Earth and left to free Hämsterviel from prison. Hurt and/or infuriated at this, 625 decided to convert Gantu's deserted ship into his own sandwich shop.
Sometime later, Lilo visited 625 to use the ship's videophone, and even made him a PBJ sandwich as a peace offering. 625 initially denied Lilo's plea until she discovered that she had never given him a name (he was still 625 to this point). After a few failed attempts, 625 finally agreed to the name Reuben. Lilo then convinced Reuben to repair the ship's communication system so that she could contact Stitch.
After the call was placed, the two discovered that the Stitch in control of the B.R.B. was an impostor. Realizing Stitch was in danger, Lilo asked for Reuben's help, but the latter claimed it wasn't their problem. Lilo then enlightened Reuben on how he could do whatever Stitch can, and convinced him to finally make something of himself. Although hesitant at first, Reuben complied after Lilo persuaded him. He then repaired the ship, while revealing his incredible powers, and the two flew it to Turo to warn the Grand Councilwoman.
However, when Lilo and Reuben arrived, they discovered that they were too late, as Hämsterviel and his Leroy army had already overthrown the Galactic Alliance. Hämsterviel ordered Gantu to arrest Lilo and Reuben, but Gantu was fired in the process due to Leroy being Hämsterviel's new henchman. However, Lilo and Reuben were soon broken out by a reformed Gantu after Reuben convinced him to switch sides. Before the three were able to escape, they were caught by a group of Leroy guards. However, they were saved by Stitch, Jumba and Pleakley's timely arrival and escaped back to Earth in time to save the captured experiments that were taken to a stadium to be destroyed.
Reuben participated in the following battle between the experiments and the Leroy clones by slipping up Leroys with sandwiches. When the Leroys gained the upper hand in the battle, Lilo, Stitch, Reuben and several other experiments performed the song "Aloha ʻOe", which caused the entire Leroy army to shut down due to the original's fail-safe. Reuben joins them for the song by playing the saxophone.
Following the battle, when the Galactic Alliance was reinstated and Gantu returned to his job as captain, the latter hired Reuben as his galley officer.
Stitch! anime
Reuben as seen in Stitch!
In the Stitch! anime, it is revealed in the English dub that he and Gantu were fired from the Galactic Armada because of some incident involving bad karaoke singing. Since they needed money, they once again sought out Hämsterviel for employment. Since then, Reuben has been in almost every other episode of the anime with Gantu and Hämsterviel.
In one episode of Season 3 of the anime, Hämsterviel modifies Reuben to be able to use his powers as often as possible, giving him the ability to easily defeat Stitch. This transformation also gave him a "bad boy" personality, and it is because of this that Angel dumped Stitch for Reuben until Stitch saved her from plummeting to Earth. Reuben was later snapped out of this trance when he saw someone making a sandwich incorrectly. Reuben was last seen in the final episode of the anime when he, Gantu, Hämsterviel, and Delia are put in prison by the Grand Councilwoman.
Disney Adventures prequel comics
Before Stitch's creation and when Jumba was struggling with creating his ultimate monster, 625 served as Jumba's primary assistant in the labs, though this mostly involved him making sandwiches for his master. When Stitch first gets loose on Turo, 625 comes with Jumba to help him track the creature down, but the arrest would eventually come and 625 would be podded.
These events have since been retconned by the events described in Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, where Stitch is apprehended directly after his creation and Reuben is nowhere to be seen.
Reuben makes occasional appearances at Tokyo Disneyland usually in parades along with many other experiments. Reuben makes an appearance in Lilo and Stitch's Big Panic on a float with the villains of his franchise (and Felix). Reuben makes an extremely brief, non-speaking appearance in Stitch's Great Escape! at the Magic Kingdom when Gantu gives guests a quick look at the "criminals" of the galaxy.
Reuben's first appearance was in the promotional Disney Adventures comics released before Lilo & Stitch. His physical appearance in the comics is different, having blue-green fur, beadier eyes, and a larger belly, but he retains his personality and love of sandwiches. This blue color was still kept in the early comics based on the show, persisting even in reprints.
In some promotional Lilo & Stitch: The Series comics, his eyes and build change to reflect his new look, but his blue-green fur color remains the same.
Jess Winfield confirmed that the alteration from blue fur to tan fur was an artistic choice made to more clearly separate Reuben from Stitch.[1]
Reuben also appeared in a DVD bonus feature of Stitch! The Movie in the experiment gallery, although his name was never revealed at the time.
Reuben makes a brief cameo at the end of the game Lilo & Stitch 2: Hämsterviel Havoc for Game Boy Advance, where he offers the defeated Gantu a breadless cheese sandwich. This screenshot of him was taken from the series episode "Splodyhead".
Reuben appears, along with several other Lilo & Stitch characters, in a parody of the Disney Channel Original Movie High School Musical, which was broadcast as part of the High School Musical: Around the World one-year anniversary special.
Reuben is named after the classic sandwich of the same name, which consists of corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and Russian dressing grilled between slices of rye bread, or as Reuben himself puts it, "The classic corned beef and sauerkraut on rye."
Before settling with Reuben, Lilo had a few other names for him in relation to sandwiches and/or his love for them, but he declined: "Patty", "Monte", and "Pita Pita Sandwich Eata".
Reuben was the first experiment to be seen in pod form, but also the last to be named by Lilo and to be rehabilitated.
Reuben rarely extends his claws, as they are normally completely retracted. However, in "Mr. Stenchy", Reuben was seen with his claws extended, using them to spread grape jelly on bread as if his claws were butter knives.
Reuben is one of the few known experiments that can speak fluently.
Since Reuben has all of Stitch's powers, it is possible that he also has a metamorphosis programming. However, out of all his powers, Reuben's ability to roll into a ball never appears onscreen in the franchise.
In "627", Lilo referred to 625 as "Sandwich Boy" when he telephoned her, although it is unknown how he learned or obtained the Pelekais' phone number.
Reuben's pod color is normally blue. However, in a few screenshots of Stitch! The Movie, it was purple.
In the Stitch! anime, his pod is white when Jumba dehydrates him in "Stitch's Birthday: Part 1".
Reuben is one of the few experiments to not appear in the group photo at the end of Leroy & Stitch, as he was probably with Gantu.
During the time of the series, Reuben had his name on the Lilo & Stitch games and his character profile on the Disney Channel website and in various storybooks before Leroy & Stitch was finished. Ironically, in the Spanish version of Leroy & Stitch, he was never referred to as Reuben; he was only named "625".
When Reuben appeared in Disney Tsum Tsum for a 2018/2019 Lilo & Stitch: The Series-themed event, the game referred to him as "Experiment 625" like he was during the show before the release of Leroy & Stitch, never acknowledging his later-given name, despite the fact that Leroy also appeared during the same event.

Q: Stop script from working if screen size is smaller than I have this small snippet of jQuery:
if (jQuery(window).innerWidth() > 568) {
jQuery('#boardOfTrustees').masonry({
itemSelector: '.postWrapper',
});
}
This works fine, but I want to stop this from working, or uninitialize it on resize if the screen is smaller than a certain size. I've tried this:
jQuery(window).smartresize(function() {
if (jQuery(window).innerWidth() > 568) {
jQuery('#boardOfTrustees').masonry({
itemSelector: '.postWrapper',
});
}
});
.smartresize is a debounce script, it works well, but for this particular scenario, its not doing anything and the masonry script is still initialized. How can I make first set of jQuery stop applying itself to the elements if the screen is smaller than 568 pixels but then start working again if the resize is larger than 568?
A: This would work on load. Not on resize:
if (jQuery(window).innerWidth() < 568) {
jQuery('#boardOfTrustees').masonry({
itemSelector: '.postWrapper',
});
}
To make it work on resize then you would need to use the method destroy as detailed at the documentation.
$(window).resize(function () {
if (jQuery(window).innerWidth() < 568) {
jQuery('#boardOfTrustees').masonry('destroy');
} else {
jQuery('#boardOfTrustees').masonry({
itemSelector: '.postWrapper',
});
}
});
A: Destroy it
else {
jQuery('#boardOfTrustees').masonry('destroy')
}

"Blood on the Plain" Review
February 5, 2012 thomasconroy Leave a comment
I thought I'd take a break from the insanity of the awards season to provide a little spotlight on an outstanding short film to come out of the Chicago area. Having spent six years in film school, I can both understand and relate to what it's like to be an unrecognized talent, attempting to make a standout film with practically no budget. With that being said, to this little endeavor in moviemaking, I say "bravo."
The story is set against the backdrop of small-town life in Kansas on the day of the high school homecoming dance. A tribe of people, thought to be extinct for hundreds of years, have returned, evolved into a form of creature never before seen or imagined. Seeking revenge for the sins of the town's ancestors, the demons strike at what is most precious to them, prompting the residents to band together and put a stop to the evil, once and for all.
Director Mac Eldridge (helmer of "Chemical 12-D," which played at last year's Fantasia Fest in Montreal), has gone above and beyond in crafting a fantastic, cross-genre experience: a horror-western. Imagine, if you will, the ominous, wayfaring overtones of "No Country for Old Men" meeting the gruesome action and thrills of "Predator." The film packs some genuinely philosophical vibes that, while not reaching fruition, raise its caliber a notch or two above what a short like this could normally offer, and yet never skimps on its level of pure excitement.
For a movie in which the characters are not usually the main draw, the actors really hold their own. Otis Fine does a remarkable job of anchoring the ensemble as the thinking-man's bartender. Richard Alpert, meanwhile, nails the film's climax, encompassing everything you could hope for from a hard-nosed, eyepatch-wearing sheriff who can still handle a Winchester rifle. The emotional core of the film, however, is held by Joey Bicicchi and Dani Wilkin, the two star-crossed high school lovers who bear witness to the town's tragedy. Caught in a whirlwind of horror and carnage, we see the massacre through their eyes, and it isn't pretty.
The above-mentioned storm pertains to the horror element of the film, which will likely draw a large amount of viewers and they will not be disappointed. First off, the creature design is stellar. The makeup team created a lean, mean, savage superhuman with plenty of unique touchups and details that add a distinct element of character. They meet all the necessary criteria to be added to the long list of things you would not want to run into in a dark alley. Meanwhile, the title of the film really lives up to expectations with some outstanding gore. There's enough stabbing, throat-cutting and general slaughter to keep any self-respecting horror fan glued to the screen.
It's worth mentioning that much of the film's success would not have been realized without its fabulous technical qualities. This film, which was made with a minuscule amount of money, looks, sounds and feels like a movie that should garner envy from any big-budget Hollywood producer. The cinematography, crafted by the young Chicago phenom David Wagenaar, is top notch. The film's warm color palette help heighten the authentic western vibe, while Wagenaar's staunch, high-contrast lighting during the massacre greatly elevates the level of terror. The film's production design team successfully pulled off transforming suburban Chicago into rural Kansas (not an easy feat). Finally, the sound mix by Rob Davis adds a quality to the film that absolutely cannot be beaten.
Perhaps the greatest compliment one can give to "Blood on the Plain" is how well it works as a short film. Some may argue that the movie lacks a solid build-up. Yet, all in all, what more could you want for your twelve minutes? The film wastes not a second of its running time and delivers more scares, thrills and raw emotion than any other short that I've seen this year. The filmmakers wish to soon expand this film into a feature, and I can only hope beyond hope that it happens. When you see this short you will know what I mean, because, by the time the credits roll, the only thing you will want is more. You'll be begging for it.
"Blood" is about to start its international festival run and is not yet available for streaming. However, you can go to the film's website and can find all sorts of ways to see it. The DVD is on sale for ten dollars and is packed with all kinds of great extras. Or, if you're as self-conscious about blind buys as I am, the film is also available for download in a stunning 2k (a quality higher than HD) transfer for only four dollars. Trust me, this film is worth your four dollars. Help support these phenomenal young indie filmmakers.
Below is the film's official trailer and a link to their site:

"Hanna" Review at The DePaulia
April 11, 2011 thomasconroy Leave a comment
I had attended an early screening of this film a few weeks ago, but had to embargo my review until opening weekend. The review got published in The DePaulia today. Once again, here's a short excerpt:
"Joe Wright, the young director of such films as "Pride and Prejudice" and "Atonement," goes far out of his usual element to direct this fantastic thriller. It's as though the man has suddenly started using artistic steroids or been abducted by aliens. Whatever the reasoning, Wright's new style is not necessarily an improvement, but a welcome change. The pace and tone that he brings to the film create a sensation that I'm not sure I've ever experienced from a film."
This is film honestly still has my head spinning. I have no doubt that it's already in contention for my eventual Top Ten List of the year and I had a lot of fun writing this review. Check out the full article through the link, below:

"Win Win" Review at The DePaulia
April 4, 2011 thomasconroy Leave a comment
As some of you know, I recently started writing for The DePaulia, DePaul University's official newspaper. It's not the Chicago Tribune, but it is a highly respected student publication and is a big step for me in building my reputation in the Chicago area. I recently published my first review for them and it is available online. Here's a quick excerpt:
"Over the last decade, writer/director/actor Tom McCarthy has championed himself as a voice for the underappreciated. His pair of independent features ("The Station Agent" and "The Visitor") stands as an ode to those ordinary people we see on the street and don't give a second thought to, despite them having interesting stories to tell. With "Win Win," the director crafts a true modern parable of contemporary middle class life and it's a treat to behold."
I was very pleased with the film, as well as my own review. I'm still not sure about the ethics or permissions of posting the actual reviews on my blog once they've been published in the paper. Meanwhile, below is a link to the full review at The DePaulia Online. Hope everyone enjoys it and wishes me luck on this new venture.

"Battle: Los Angeles" Review
March 21, 2011 thomasconroy 3 comments
As Jim McKay once said at the Munich Olympics, "Our greatest hopes and our worst fears are seldom realized." Well, my greatest fears have certainly been realized as of now. The film that I have been following, intently, through its entire brilliant publicity campaign and have been anticipating greatly…well…pretty much blows. I suppose it could have been worse, but I prefer not even to think like that.
The story is what it is, although I was really hoping there would have been some more to it. Aliens from another world in the form of meteors crash into the shorelines, interrupting surfing season, for sure. Once the military figures out what's going on (which takes about two minutes of plot and character development), they mobilize to combat the threat. However, go figure, they've underestimated their foe and soon, its up to a tiny group of surviving soldiers to put those pesky aliens in their places and somehow take out practically an entire army which is bigger, better and smarter than they are. Look at what I've gone and done. I couldn't even get through the plot synopsis without tearing into this movie.
What a mess. What a big sorry mess. This movie is trite and incompetent on so many levels, that its shortcomings are the scariest aspect of it. It wants to be so many things: "Independence Day," "Black Hawk Down," "War of the Worlds" and "District 9." None of them does it even come close to. There is so much that could have come out of this film and so many directions the creators could have taken it. Instead, the simplest measures were taken and the result does not even qualify as second-rate.
Aaron Eckhart isn't horribly cast as the fearless leader. Him, and the rest of the cast, are simply pegged into cliched character roles. There's the fresh, young officer with a pregnant wife. There's the fearful rookie facing combat for the first time. And who could live without the courageous soldier trying to live up to the memory of a fallen family member who also served? Finally, there is Eckhart's Staff Sergeant Nantz, as gung-ho and red-blooded a hero as one can find, in other words, probably the least humanistic individual to be found in the film.
The script is one of the worst I've seen portrayed on screen in a long time. It is chock full of so many war movie cliches and stereotypes that it could even make Samuel Fuller laugh out loud. There is poor character development on all fronts. The characters might as well have been titled "Soldier #2" or "Helpless Little Girl #1." Actually, let me rephrase. With the stories given for these characters, they'd have been BETTER OFF being given anonymity. The writing also features what is potentially the corniest, most laughable speech ever given by a leader addressing his troops, and that tops quite a long list.
The technical aspects of the film nearly equal to, if not surpass, the content's horrid taste. The cinematography is lazy and uncoordinated. I'm as big of a fan of handheld realism as the next man, but when used with a purpose. This film looks like someone handed a camera to a two year-old and let them run around and shoot the apocalypse. It's hard to believe that any storyboarding or preconception was taken when planning this film out and the result is nearly a complete lack of memorable shots. The sound design is less a supportive tool to the film and more of a sensual assault on the viewer. Finally, the music is a sloppy concoction of boring tones, alternating between either exciting or not, without a single original theme to be heard, throughout. I guess some credence must be given to the production design and CG teams for successfully tearing the city apart, but after a while, it just becomes routine and uninteresting.
Without a doubt, the biggest flaw of the film, and a good note to end on, is the film's refusal to take an in depth look at its main topic: an alien invasion of the planet Earth. Say what you want about films like "Independence Day," "War of the Worlds" and "Signs." They at least had the creative perception to give a bit of insight into just what such an event would really mean for the world. "Battle: Lost Angeles" lacks any kind of nuance pertaining to the inevitable societal ramifications of another race colonizing the planet. In a movie like this, I want to see more than Marines being deployed, crumbling buildings and a few dead civilians in the street. I want to feel the pangs of sheer terror at the thought of our world being irreparably torn apart. Not addressing the socio-emotional factors that come into play during a story such as this, quite frankly, relieves the film of any true form of interest, entertainment, or most importantly, credibility.

"Rango" Review
March 15, 2011 thomasconroy Leave a comment
Granted that last year was a phenomenal one for animated features ("Toy Story 3," "How to Train Your Dragon"), I have to say that I didn't give animated fare enough of my time through the course of the season. Therefore, I thought I'd get things started early this year. However, while Gore Verbinski's "Rango" is certainly not a bad film, it doesn't set the bar very high, in the same way that Lee Unkrich's masterpiece did almost a year ago.
"Rango" is a simple story of an unlikely hero. The before-nameless chameleon (Johnny Depp) is stranded hopelessly in the desert. He is half-rescued by a local lizard (Isla Fisher) who brings him to her water-deprived township. Through a series of mishaps and good luck, the iguana wins the respect from the townspeople, their job of sheriff and the title-name "Rango." Yet, when all that's left of the people's dwindling water supply is stolen and the town's most ominous figures are suspect, Rango realizes that he might be out of his league. The chameleon must find the courage that he never thought he had and prove himself to a group of people who have nothing left to hope for.
The story itself certainly isn't anything in the realm of high art. It's a standard tale of a seemingly weak individual thrown into extraordinary circumstances and forced to become the person, or chameleon, he only dreamed that he could. That structure isn't a bad one. It's worked time and time again in phenomenal films, but only when there's an added element of creativity, which this film lacks…other than all the character's being cowboy-animals, which is a little more preposterous than it is creative. However, we'll get into that later.
The voice cast does great work. One can tell, right off the bat that the title role was directly written for the talent of Johnny Depp. From the soft-spoken quips to random outbursts, it's really difficult to imagine anyone else reading these lines. Bill Nighy and Ray Winstone use their sinister tones to great extent as a few of the film's many antagonists. The only actor I could do without is the ever-growing-more-annoying Abigail Breslin. Her entire cute, mousy, adorable relief could be done away with, entirely, in my opinion.
There is one aspect of this film that is a monkey I just can't get off my back. Some people will call me unimaginative or argumentative, but I'm sorry, this just bugs me. I'm put off by the absence of any effort to have the setting, characters or events make logical sense. This is a world in which desert animals wear Hawaiian shirts and cowboy hats. They drink out of shot glasses, sit under ceiling fans and play mean riffs on the guitar. It just doesn't compute for me. The film takes whatever liberties it wishes and stretches the boundaries of reality however it pleases. Just because a film is animated does not mean that there are no cinematic guidelines that should be respected.
To further illustrate my point, certain other animated features have a fantastic premise, while keeping their roots firmly planted in reality. "Finding Nemo," "Happy Feet" and all of the "Toy Story" films create improbable plotlines, but never escape the boundaries of logic. The animals in "Finding Nemo" and "Happy Feet" have a defined society, talk to each other, and in some cases, sing and dance. Yet, they don't build auditoriums to do their routines. All of the animals basically exist the same way they do in nature. And in the case of "Toy Story," obviously toys are inanimate objects, and yet in their world, they don't escape the realm of possibility. They create tools out of accessible household items and their environments are their owners' bedrooms and toy boxes.
It's this creative sense of plausible fantasy that not only make the plot and setting of said movies easier to entertain in the mind, but funnier and ultimately more entertaining. And it's not just the lack of logic, but the unmitigated disregard for it in "Rango" that really knocks it down in my book. It puts up as a nicer-looking version of "Sponge Bob Square Pants," so, congratulations if you like that kind of thing. It's that same ode to ridiculousness that ruined Pixar's "Up" for me. The first act of that film, and especially the opening ten minutes, are absolutely extraordinary and heartbreaking. However, once the talking dogs (that could fly planes, no less) came in, I checked out.
Speaking of nice-looking, one positive note that I must leave this film on is just how incredible its appearance is. An impressive amount of detail was put into all of the visual aspects, from the fur on the chin of the hedgehog to the shine on the drinking glasses. One can definitely tell that Roger Deakins had a hand in this, being credited as a visual consultant (just as he was on "How to Train Your Dragon" and "WALL-E"). Every shot is incredibly predetermined, framed and orchestrated. It's a real shame, in fact, that the quality of the story could not match the film's astounding look.

New Additions: "Battleship Potemkin," "The Fourth Kind," "Of Human Bondage"
January 20, 2011 thomasconroy Leave a comment
"Battleship Potemkin" (Sergei Eisenstein) – 1925
A film that definitely needs no introduction. One of the great Sergei Eisenstein's first feature films, "Battleship Potemkin" tells the sort of true, yet highly sensationalized story of an uprising on a Russian warship during the Soviet Revolution. One really has to look beyond the fact that this is a blindingly strong piece of propaganda to realize that it is probably one of the ten most influential films in history. The film was perhaps the first to really use editing as not just a means to advance from one scene to the next, but to actually create and manipulate the tension and overall movement of the story. The Odessa Steps sequence is as incredible now as it has ever been, and the actual uprising and its aftermath is nearly its equal. Putting aside the editing, for a moment, the film also contains some of the most brilliantly realized shots I've ever seen, including a dolly shot of a woman, carrying her dead child, pleading with the soldiers on the steps as she stands in their shadows (featured above). So many elements combine here to create an incredible and vital film experience.
GRADES: A * * * * 1/2 / * * * * * 9.4 / 10.0
"Of Human Bondage" (John Cromwell) – 1934
Bette Davis is easily one of my top five favorite actresses of all time. Therefore, I was really looking forward to finally see the film that really catapulted her into both stardom and acclaim (which back in that time period were basically the same thing). I was quite disappointed with the result. John Cromwell's film is somewhere between being to sappy and two melodramatic, if those two aren't one in the same, as well. The interpersonal relationships between the characters seemed largely superficial. Leslie Howard's performance was flat and boring, while the direction was, for the most part, repetitive and lacking any kind of pacing to keep the viewer hooked. There were a few technical elements that helped advance the story, such as close-ups emphasizing the main characters physical disabilities. And as far as Bette Davis goes, her acting and emotions are as spot-on as ever. Yet,my God, this must have been before the job of dialect coach became one of the highest paying in Hollywood, for Davis uses one of the most absurd British accents I've ever heard.
GRADES: C+ * * 1/2 / * * * * * 5.4 / 10.0
"The Fourth Kind" (Olatunde Osunsanmi) – 2009
Okay, all joking aside, this is one of the worst movies ever made. Put aside from the horrible acting, terrible writing and absurd direction for a moment. This film's idea and its conception are absolutely laughable and really quite insulting to any audience's intelligence and time. The movie, about alien abductions, begins with a fourth wall breaking monologue by Milla Jovovich explaining that everything in the film is real and is supported by actual video-recordings. The film uses this "actual" footage through achingly irritating and distracting split-screen throughout the entire film. And yet, the kicker is that this actual footage completely fabricated. They use fake footage on the right to recreate fake footage, and all of it is terribly done. This movie actually pulls off a pretty fantastic feat in its ability to be two different horrible movies at the same time. I mean, really. What's the fucking point? Either make a straight-up narrative movie, or a hardcore docudrama. Don't try to do both as this colossally atrocious farce attempts. An epic fail of a movie.

"The Fighter" Review
January 6, 2011 thomasconroy 2 comments
Every year, there seems to be a film that I go into not expecting anything from and not really looking forward to, whatsoever. Then, I see it, and my opinion of the film couldn't shift more radically. This year, that film is David O'Russell's "The Fighter."
There were many aspects that I had stacked up against this film before viewing it. One was, let's face it, it's a boxing movie, and not since "Raging Bull" has a film about that particular sport ever come close to blowing me away. Boxing films are also usually a bit too sentimental for my taste. Also, I wasn't sure if maverick director David O'Russell would be able to hold on to his originality for this venture, or if he would effectively sell out in the face of potential box office success. All of these questions would be answered.
"The Fighter" tells the very true story of Mickey Ward, played by Mark Wahlberg, a street cleaner from Boston with dreams of being a boxer. However, his career has been managed, or rather mis-managed, his whole life by his over-bearing mother (Melissa Leo) and former boxer turned crack-addict brother, Dickey Ward (Christian Bale). One day, he meets his golden ticket in the form of a sexy bartender (Amy Adams) who convinces him to ditch his dysfunctional family in order to succeed at his dream. However, his loved ones refuse to go quietly and the odd group must find a way to work together to achieve any hope of victory.
This film is phenomenal. It had me from the opening shots of Dickey air-punching Mickey from a POV approach. It had me from Mickey calling his father a silverback gorilla after he chases down his stoned son through a backyard. It had me when it literally made fun of me, and other film snobs, when Mickey tries to show off by taking Adams to a snooty, French arthouse film. This film had me for nearly the entire film.
David O'Russell ("Three Kings," "I Heart Huckabees") has never quite made a movie like this before. Even when his former fare occasionally gets serious, it never loses its quirky, tongue-in-cheek essence. Here, the director is not necessarily fearless or even experimental, in a word, but not beholding to expectations of what this should be like if he made it. It's somewhere between a crowd-pleasing, fist-pounding extravaganza and a subtle character study into the depths of family, addiction and self-worth.
One thing's for sure about both the writing and direction of "The Fighter." It's all heart. Despite a few hitches in regard to how Mickey's motley crew of an entourage comes together, the film almost never feels superficial or forced. The characters and their relationships all feel real and this family dynamic is one that will not soon be forgotten in the world of cinema. Another important note pertains to the setting. It seems that everywhere one turns now, there is a "Boston-themed" movie. "The Departed," "Gone Baby Gone," "The Town" and "Mystic River." Many of these are phenomenal films. Yet of all of them, it's "The Fighter" that truly uses the community atmosphere of Boston as not only a setting, but a character in itself. The streets and their people breathe the material and give it new life.
If the Oscars had ever got around to creating a "Best Ensemble Cast" award (they won't, but there's always wishful thinking), I don't see how any film could possibly be more deserving of such an honor this year than the one in question. Every performance pulls its weight and is worthy of recognition. Even the bit parts, from Ward's half dozen sisters, his rebellious father and a charismatic cop-turned-trainer whose character actually played himself in the film. Wahlberg is obviously the weakest link, and yet it is still one of his best turns.
Amy Adams, who has never had a more rebellious or fiery part, makes the audience fall head over heels for her. Meanwhile, the other female performance is one for the ages. I remember back when Melissa Leo had a much smaller and unrecognized role in Alejandro Gaonzalez Inarritu's "21 Grams," and I was the only one who was noting her performances as one of the highlights. Now, she's two steps away from potentially winning an Academy Award. To go from obscurity to recognition this late in life cannot be the easiest feat, and yet Leo has more than proven that it can be done.
It's no joke, however, that this film belongs to Christian Bale. Bale has had a long career with ups and downs and some very fine performances dating all the way back to his incredible childhood role in Steven Spielberg's "Empire of the Sun." Fans of his have long wondered when he would finally come across the role that would land him an Oscar nomination. I have a feeling that with this role, the buck won't stop with just a nomination. This is the crowning jewel of Bale's relatively young career. He walks a thin character tightrope between an overbearing, drug-addicted older brother whom the audience loathes and a sympathetic, washed-up father and former boxer who can't seem to catch a break. Both elements of the role he has nailed down to a "t" and his work makes the audience await his every emotion with eager anticipation.
Probably the biggest question on my mind when entering into this film was whether it would be a "Rocky" or a "Raging Bull," as it seems that nearly all boxing movies are in one way or another. I was pleasantly surprised to discover the answer: neither. "The Fighter" is an almost wholly original concept for a boxing film, or any film. It's as gritty as it is lofty and as exciting as it is dramatic. It's as much an in-depth character-study as it is a gloriously narrative-driven journey of hope and adventure. Throw in a few phenomenal performances, and you've got one of the best films of 2010.

FG Now Saves N4.5bn Monthly From Ghost Workers – EFCC Reveals
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has said its intervention assisted to save N4.5 billion monthly, lost to 'ghost workers' on the federal government's payroll.
A statement by EFCC's spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, quoted the commission's Acting Chairman, Ibrahim Magu, as saying this while delivering a lecture on Thursday at the National Defence College (NDC) in Abuja.
Magu spoke on the topic "Corruption and Anti-corruption Strategies in Nigeria: Way Forward," at the Course 28 Study Programme of NDC with the theme: "Economic Diversification and National Development".
He reiterated the commitment of the current administration to rid the country of corruption, adding that the involvement of the EFCC had helped in fighting corrupt practices.
Magu also commended the introduction of Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS) into salary payment, which he said had assisted to save such amount for the government.
"The involvement of the EFCC in tackling the scourge of ghost workers in the civil service has led to a redemption of over N4.5 billion naira monthly. The EFCC has been engaged in eradicating 'ghost workers' from the federal government's payroll which has resulted in saving as much as N4.5 billion naira monthly.
"The Bank Verification Number (BVN) has been an effective tool in carrying out investigations effectively, as it has curtailed the opening of fake bank accounts by fraudulent individuals. The only gateway to development is through fighting corruption.
"If Nigeria breaks away from corrupt practices in government businesses and in the private sector, we will transform into a model state overnight," he said.
The commission's acting chairman disclosed that the commission had secured up to 2,165 convictions over a period of 10 years between 2009 and 2019. He added that 70 per cent of it was achieved between 2016 and September 2019 under his watch.
The EFCC boss called for more collaboration among security and law enforcement agencies through the National Anti -Corruption Strategy aimed to bring about coherence and synergy among security agencies in the country.
The Commandant of NDC, Rear Adm. Markson Kadiri, emphasised the need for proper utilisation of funds, urging participants to key into the corruption fight.

Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife Peng Liyuan are on an official visit to India.
During her hour-long visit to the Tagore International School, Peng interacted with a select group of students and did some calligraphy.
Peng said: "It is important for all of us to keep learning and work hard to achieve the goal we have set in life."
书法(shū fǎ) calligraphy is the art of writing Chinese characters and especially refers to the rules of writing with a brush. The emergence of calligraphy is closely associated with the special style of Chinese characters. When writing Chinese characters, emphasis is placed on the change in the stipples and lines as well as spacing between the characters and the lines. A beautiful composition and strong artistic sense are also important.
Calligraphy has a history of more than 3,000 years. The most renowned calligraphers include Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi, Zhang Xu and Yan Zhenqing. There are many interesting stories about these artists that are related to calligraphy, including that of father and son calligraphers Wang Xizhi and Wang Xianzhi.
Wang Xianzhi, who was the son of Wang Xizhi, started practicing calligraphy with his father when he was only seven or eight years old. He always dreamed of surpassing his father, but his mother told him that progress came only after hard work. One day five years later, Wang Xianzhi showed the characters he wrote to his father. Dissatisfied with his son's progress, Wang Xizhi added a dot under the Chinese character 大. Wang Xianzhi took it to his mother and said, "I have practiced for five years. Could you tell the difference between my handwriting and that of my father?" His mother studied the copy and then pointed the dot Wang Xizhi put under the character 大, saying, "Only this dot is like your father's handwriting." Wang Xianzhi was shocked and started practicing calligraphy even harder. His reputation later rivaled that of his father. The two were called the Two Wangs( In Chinese, Wang has another meaning of King.), a miracle in the history of calligraphy.
The story also tells us that just like working on anything else, practicing calligraphy requires unremitting efforts.

Time for reform: A spot exchange is just what the gold market needs
August 17, 2019 - Updated 11:55 am IST
By V Hareesh
Spot gold has crossed the psychological level of $1,500 an ounce in the international market, its highest level since May 2013. Whereas, domestic futures surged to an all-time high of ₹38,125 per 10 grams. Debilitated business confidence in advanced economies have rendered support to the metal.
Feeble global outlook, tensions between Iran and the West and policy easing expectations from central banks lifted gold's safe haven demand. The tariff clash between the world's two large economies and its probable impact on the health of emerging markets weighed on market sentiment, prompting investors to bet on gold.
Gold in the global market has meandered in a tight range of $1,050-$1,380 for the past five years, but it broke out from the multi-year long cycle. The lacklustre undertone in the previous years was owing to overwhelming changes triggered across its key fundamentals.
Unlike the global prices, gold rates in India shot up to record highs. Higher taxes and weak rupee made gold expensive for domestic buyers. India is the second largest consumer of gold and it is the second most imported commodity in the country. High imports had widened the current account deficit (CAD) earlier and the government had hiked gold's import duty to 10 per cent in 2013. In the last budget, the duty was revised to 12.5 per cent. In addition, gold attracts 3 per cent GST.
The decision to hike duty is likely to strengthen the domestic scrap market. It may, however, also push imports through illegal channels.
As per the World Gold Council's statistics, Indian households have piled up around 24,000-25,000 tonnes of gold worth more than 40 per cent of GDP. An active scarp market can reduce gold imports , like in non-essential items, and strengthen the entire gold ecosystem.
Smuggling danger
Meanwhile, increased price differences compared to other markets would boost gold smuggling. As per data, imports were muted for the last many months and one reason for this could be transactions via unorganised channels.
The changing tax regime and high domestic prices have a huge bearing on the gold industry. Since the market in India is unorganised, the ability of the industry to emerge as a world class supplier is hampered. The dependency on import of raw material, a competitive international market and the currency volatility too impact the the sector.
Due to absence of a regulated trading environment and lack of standard invoicing pattern, there is no unified pricing and quality assurance mechanism across the value chain. In India, spot gold prices are determined by various jewellery associations which make prices vary from place to place.
These challenges in the ecosystem raise the need for reforming the Indian spot gold market. A comprehensive policy on gold can effectively manage these challenges. Setting up of a spot exchanges and creation of Gold Board to regulate the vast domestic market can bring in more transparency in trades .
The existing challenges like enabling transparent price discovery and standardisation of physical delivery across the country can be properly managed by spot exchanges. Ensuring participation of all stakeholders in the ecosystem, including retailers, wholesalers, importers and exporters, would lead to transparency in physical trades as well.
Gold a steady performer
India's fascination towards gold is centuries old. Historically, it has been an important investment avenue and is associated with wealth, power and prestige. Gold prices in India had seen a steep rise since 2003. Prices gained about 560 per cent without major correction or severe volatility. A week Indian currency and stable jewellery demand had given firm support to prices. The Indian gold demand largely pertained to making of jewellery and as a traditional gifting commodity. Its high liquidity, availability at smaller denominations, capital appreciation, mobility and acceptability among poor and rich across religions and geographies make it popular.

As we near the end of hurricane season on November 30, we enter a season of thanks. I know we all are thankful that we were fortunate enough not to endure a major hurricane landfall this year.
This time of year also represents a season to be thankful for our families and the many other good things we have in our lives. We are also thankful for our many veterans, active duty, and reserve members of the military who made the commitment to preserve and protect our nation's principles and freedoms.
I am thankful for the great work insurance professionals do every day for Floridians, as well as the work of our legislative leaders. I've had the pleasure to work with many of these leaders and stakeholders who are as dedicated as I am to ensuring that we accomplish needed changes during the upcoming legislative session. We must do everything we can to curb fraud and keep money in Floridians' pockets where it belongs.
Please be sure to continue sharing your thoughts via our online survey so that we can continue to improve for you.

Hibbert to Race at Sweden's Clash of Nations
Monster Energy/Arctic Cat's Tucker Hibbert, the reigning U.S. National Champion and 2010 World Champion, will travel to Falun, Sweden the end of March to compete in Clash of Nations' inaugural Super Snowcross event.
Over two days, 90 athletes from around the world will compete in Super Snowcross, Freestyle Snowmobile, Big Air Snowboard and Big Air Ski competitions at the prestigious Lugnet Arena.
Hibbert is no stranger to competing in Sweden. Two years ago, in his first race outside of North America, he traveled to Mala to enter his first FIM Snowcross World Championship event. He was welcomed by thousands of fans and went on to win the title. He quickly learned that Sweden is stacked with snowmobile enthusiasts and knew he had to return.
Europe's top action sports athletes along with select North Americans are expected to attend the second annual Clash of Nations. Lugnet is a world-class sporting complex where 58 of the 67 Swedish Sports Confederation's activities can be practiced. The arena has seating for up to 30,000 spectators and is located 200 km northwest of Stockholm.
Clash of Nations will mark Hibbert's final snocross event of the 2011/2012 season. Until then, he will compete in five ISOC National Snocross events across the U.S. and the FIM Snowcross World Championship in Russia.
To stay connected with his racing adventures, visit www.tucker-hibbert.com.
Tucker Hibbert – #68 Monster Energy/Arctic Cat – "I'm really excited about going to Sweden for Clash of Nations. I haven't been back to Sweden since the World Championship in 2010. It was an awesome country to race at and visit. I was surprised by the excitement of the fans and amount of support I had there. I felt so welcomed and knew I had to find a way to go back. Clash of Nations should be a really cool event. It sounds like Lugnet is a quality venue and will be perfect for spectators to watch racing. With all the different events going on, I think it'll be a relaxed, fun atmosphere.
We (the team) have a crazy schedule between now and Clash of Nations but we're ready. I'll race five big events in a row with two of them out of the country. It'll be busy but exciting at the same time. It'll be cool to end my season in Sweden. Hopefully we'll find the same support and success we had there in 2010!"

Serval - T cell antigen receptor expression by subsets of Ly-2-L3T4- (CD8-CD4-) thymocytes.
T cell antigen receptor expression by subsets of Ly-2-L3T4- (CD8-CD4-) thymocytes.
Wilson A., Ewing T., Owens T., Scollay R., Shortman K.
The V beta 8-specific mAb F23.1 and KJ16 were used as fluorescent stains to test for TCR expression on the surface of subpopulations of early, CD4-CD8- (L3T4-Ly-2-) thymocytes from adult CBA mice. A surprisingly high proportion (27%) of Ly-2-L3T4- thymocytes were strongly F23.1 and KJ16 positive. No positive cells were detected among Ly-2-L3T4- thymocytes from V beta 8-negative SJL mice. In contrast to the adult thymus, Ly-2-L3T4- cells from embryonic CBA thymus lacked F23.1-positive cells. Subsets of adult CBA Ly-2-L3T4- thymocytes were separated to determine which expressed V beta 8. The major subset, Ly-1 low B2A2-M1/69+Thy-1+Pgp-1-, representing a phenotype similar to embryonic Ly-2-L3T4- thymocytes and the phenotype commonly isolated from adult thymocytes as Ly-1 "dull," lacked cells strongly positive for F23.1. In contrast, a series of subsets of adult CBA Ly-2-L3T4- thymocytes which were B2A2-M1/69- and Pgp-1+ all included strongly F23.1-positive cells. A minor subset, negative for most markers except Pgp-1 and presumed on the basis of this phenotype and some reconstitution studies to include the earliest intrathymic precursors, contained 28% F23.1-positive cells. However, no F.23.1-positive cells were detected in equivalent "prethymic" populations from bone marrow or from athymic mouse spleen. The subsets of Ly-2-L3T4- thymocytes which were Ly-1 high, B2A2-M1/69-, and Pgp-1+ all contained about 70% F23.1-positive cells, indicating a V beta 8 usage much higher than the mature T cell average. These results indicate that a series of distinct developmental events have occurred within these CD4-CD8- thymocytes previously considered as a single group of early precursor cells, and that some aspects of repertoire selection may be occurring amongst thymocytes which lack CD4 or CD8.

Hi crafters! This month is full of birthday goodness for Tutti Designs as the team shares various dies perfect for that special occasion.. Today I am using Tutti-291 Cupcake.
This dies measures 4x4 a perfect card front for a birthday card.
I used some glitter paper for the outer edge of the die and brightened up the middle just like a cupcake and popped on a bright red cherry from red foil paper.

Q: Flow query isn't getting a record that a SOQL query has no problem getting I have multiple queries in the flow that are set up the exact same. Im not getting an error, the flow runs through fine and does what it's supposed to. It's just not getting the records needed, and therefore leaving items out that need to be iterated over.
SOQL Query getting the correct list of Ids

Each year on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, CPCC students spend the day at local non-profits including Samaritan House as part of the CPCC MKL Jr. Challenge Day. These students visit our facility and spend a few hours helping to beautify the property and spending some time with our guests. We've been partnered with CPCC on this day since 2013 and it's always been good times and great work around the facility.

Results for the June 23 event are in and the group of former jockeys raised $310,000, easily topping the record $254,000 raised at Parx Racing last year. The total puts the amount raised by the group to well over $1 million.
"Jockeys and Jeans is a true representation of jockeys helping jockeys," said PDJF Board President Nancy LaSala. "We thank the former jockeys who came together to do something to help raise awareness and funds for the PDJF, as well as the Hall of Fame jockeys who travel across the country and the active riders at each host track. All are there to help the fallen riders. We are so appreciative of the tracks who have hosted the event; Tampa Bay Downs, Indiana Grand, Gulfstream Park, Parx Racing, and Canterbury Park. Without their support this would not have happened."
The PDJF makes monthly payments of $1,000 to 60 former jockeys who suffered catastrophic racing accidents with 40 either pari or quadriplegics. Most of the remainder suffered severe brain injuries.
The all volunteer group, Jockeys and Jeans came together for a jockey reunion at Tampa Bay Downs in early 2014 and decided to make it into a fundraiser and donate all proceeds to the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund. President Barry Pearl said this year's sold out event is likely the richest single fundraiser in the history of Thoroughbred racing.
"While each of our nine committee members puts in a massive amount of work and Hall of Fame riders make the time to show up and take part, it is about more than us," he said. "It's about all those in the community of horse racing who stepped up to prove they genuinely care about former jockeys who lives were changed forever in a split second and are now riding wheelchairs instead of horses. And Canterbury Park just took the lead among tracks that care. Randy Sampson and the team there were as innovative as they were determined to make this event a success."
The track solicited event sponsors and held a poker and golf tournament in which Hall of Fame riders participated. Thirteen attended to honor six permanently disabled jockeys. Edgar Prado flew from his Maryland base to compete with other successful riders and six of the track's past leading riders in the first All Star Jockey Challenge. Prado, who leads the eight active Hall of Fame riders in victories with over 7,000, got up in the final stride to win aboard Superstar Bea. Barry Butzow, the horse's co-owner, donated his share of the purse, bringing the total raised in the race to $19,000.
Jockeys and Jeans is officially announcing that its 2019 annual fundraiser is set for Santa Anita and in 2020 will move to Churchill Downs.

A Lake Reawakens
Mr Arvind K Garg addressing the joggers at renovated Jakkur Lake.
A LAKE is more than just a waterbody. It revives people's soul, rekindles their spirit, and add a touch of freshness and greenery to a locality. It also serves as the lungs of the area.
The magnificent, centuries-old Jakkur Lake, occupies about 100 acres in the Yelahanka-Hebbal area of northern Bengaluru. But over the years, it became highly polluted by sewage and waste, discouraging both migratory birds and joggers. This and many more polluted lakes eventually became a cause for concern, and some NGOs and the urban local bodies launched a lake-revivalist movement in and around Bengaluru a few years ago.
Responding to the call, L&T in 2018 pledged a Rs 1.18-crore CSR fund for rejuvenating Jakkur Lake. Subsequently, L&T Construction Equipment Ltd and L&T Realty – two prominent subsidiaries of L&T – kickstarted the rejuvenation exercise in three phases.
Firstly, over a thousand trees belonging to 100-odd species were planted on the lake banks. Next came the installation of 50 solar lights around the lake. The third phase saw the addition of an amphitheatre and construction of an obstacle course that can be used by people of all age groups for physical and mental fitness. The amphitheatre gives people the opportunity to participate in cultural, educational and entertainment activities.
Also, to promote Indian traditional sport, fifteen venues were built for games like morabara, navkankari and chouka baara on the eastern and western part of the lake. A children's play area, dotted with tall structures for birdwatching, has been built with recycled materials. A butterfly habitat was among the initiatives for the lake rejuvenation.
Mr Arvind K Garg, EVP & Head, L&T Construction & Mining Machinery, recently ceremoniously handed over the new facilities at Jakkur Lake. Mr K Chandrashekar, Business Head – Bengaluru Project, L&T Realty, and Mr D Keshava Kumar, Chief Executive - L&T Construction & Machinery Ltd, were present.
"It feels so nice to relax amid the beautiful and fresh greenery. I am happy that the citizens, along with the government and bureaucracy, have brought about such a pleasant change. This can set an example for the revival of other declining lakes in Bengaluru," Mr Garg observed.
The skill building training by L&T has opened a door to self reliance for many.
The community hall at Pavlepur village in Vadodara that has been built by L&T.
THE SWACCH BHARAT Mission may have lost the buzz it had created in the initial years of launch in 2014 but the mandate of this initiative – crucial to public health and hygiene – isn't lost on everyone. L&T and its business verticals are among the entities that continue to carry forward the mission, as part of shouldering corporate social responsibility.
As such, L&T Hydrocarbon Engineering (LTHE) has so far built as many as 90 toilets in the households of villages in Vadodara district of Gujarat. The initiative has brought about dramatic improvements as regards sanitation and hygiene practices in the beneficiary households and, in turn, helping prevent diseases. But this is not the only contribution that LTHE has made and is making to Vadodara. Rather, its CSR drive is multifaceted.
LTHE has recently built a community hall at Pavlepur village, a toilet block for the differently-abled at Vadodara's Friends Society and has imparted skill- building training to 300-odd women hailing from five villages in the district. The toilet block at Friend's Society is equipped with emergency bell buttons and braille signages for the visually challenged. The skill-building drive included training in stitching, tailoring, paper-bowl-making, poultry, beautician skills, etc.
In August, Mr Sudheer P V Nambiar (Head HSE, CSR & Sustainability - LTHE Onshore) handed over the community hall, the toilet block and the certificates for skill-building training to the beneficiaries.
Throughout the year, LTHE undertakes tree plantation drives and conducts health camps in remote villages. All these initiatives are part of L&T's CSR projects, namely, Village Development Programme, Education Development Programme, Paida Ni Pathshala, the Engineering Futures Programme, and Sanitation Solutions that are enhancing lives of the disadvantaged.

A camel rider rides sweaty in the desert.
Suddenly he gets overtaken by an insanely quick flash.
Grade yet, he can see that it's been a cyclist.
Later at a bar, he meets the cyclists and asks him how he can go so fast.
He replies: "I'm going as fast as I can, then the wind comes towards me, which cools me down and this way I can continue so on."
The camel rider thinks to himself: "Cool, that I must try also."
Then he takes his camel, riding as fast as he can and all of a sudden his camel falls down dead.
He then: "Oops, I think now my camel got frozen!"
A monk and a nun ride a camel through the desert. Suddenly the animal collapses dead.
After several days of monk and nun are close to death.
The monk said: "Sister, I die soon But first I'd like to see how a naked woman looks like. Would you do me a favor?"
The nun is doing it and undresses.
Then she saíd: "Brother, it occurs to me too. I have never seen a naked man. Please do me a favor?"
The monk takes off also.
As the nun says: "What have you there between your legs?"
The Monk: "That gave me the Lord. If I put into it in you, it will created new life."
Says the nun: "Then plug into the camel and let us continue our ride ..."

Metra moves to buy newer engines
(February 21, 2018) -
The Metra Board of Directors today approved the purchase of up to 21 used F59PHI locomotives for $1.3 million each, allowing Metra to quickly supplement its locomotive fleet while continuing a longer-term procurement of additional, new or remanufactured locomotives.
The F59PHIs, which were built by the Electro-Motive Division of General Motors in 1998 and have been rehabbed within the last five years, have similar parts and operating characteristics to Metra's existing fleet of EMD F40s, some of which are 35 years old and are in need of overhaul. That means they can be integrated into the Metra system quickly and without extensive and expensive training of maintenance and operating crews. The F59s would also increase reliability, reduce pollution and achieve fuel savings of about 10 percent to 25 percent over the older engines.
"Ideally Metra would have sufficient funding to replace older locomotives with new ones on a regular basis," said Metra CEO/Executive Director Jim Derwinski. "However, Metra has been underfunded for years and we have to work with the funding we have available. We believe this purchase represents a great opportunity to make a big impact on our operations at a reasonable expense, and that's why we are pursuing this purchase."
It is rare for service-ready engines to be on the market. These 21 F59 locomotives were most recently used on the West Coast by Amtrak. The engines will become available this year as Amtrak switches to a new Siemens locomotive.
In late 2017, Metra issued a request for proposals (RFP) to begin to replace its aging fleet of engines with new or remanufactured locomotives. The RFP calls for a base order of at least 12 new or 15 remanufactured locomotives with options for up to 30 additional new locomotives or 27 additional remanufactured locomotives, for a total of up to 42 new or remanufactured locomotives. Metra is asking for proposals for both new and remanufactured engines because it wants to weigh the costs/benefits of both options.
Those new or remanufactured locomotives, however, would not be available until late 2020 at the earliest, while the used F59s will be available this year. The F59s would supplement the engines purchased under the RFP.
The F59 purchase will be funded with money already set aside for locomotive purchases or other capital needs and/or through financing.

A life coaching course will enable you to confidently pursue life coaching work with a varied range of clients. However, not all coaching courses are the same. 'Life Coaching' is a broad umbrella term, and as such, it can be difficult to know if you're getting a suitable qualification, and indeed, the best bang for your buck.
It's easy for the process of selecting a coaching course to leave one feeling overwhelmed or confused.
We feel there are several steps to go through as you select a life coaching course. This article will take you through those steps and provide our views on how to choose something that is most suitable for you, your career, and your life – we hope you find this guide useful!
HOW MIGHT I LIKE TO WORK AS A COACH?
There are few limits as to where you can take your coaching once you're qualified, particularly if your course is accredited (an important factor that we will look at shortly). Not everyone knows what exactly they'd like to do with coaching at the start of their journey, and that's completely fine. Part of your journey through training and starting up is often about identifying the kind of client you want to work with through practice and trial and error, and the way you enjoy coaching.
Typically, most new coaches are open to what lies ahead, in which case a broad-based curriculum that introduces you to key approaches that would work in a range of contexts would be the way to go. It's worth noting that some of the more simplistic approaches to coaching (represented by a focus primarily on the GROW model) are perfectly suitable for basic performance coaching in the workplace. However, they rarely meet the complex needs of personal coaching, or indeed clients in the workplace who would benefit from deeper work as a means to improve performance. For the ability to coach clients at a deeper level, a more integrative and psychologically-grounded course like our Diploma in Transformative Coaching is likely to be more suitable for you.
The flip side is that you may want to work in an area where there are certain requirements around accreditation and credentialing, either formally or from a reputational perspective. A classic example is coaching within organisations and corporations, who often require the coaches they hire to have been through training that has been accredited by a reputable industry body. If this is the case, its clearly essential to ensure that the course you choose has the necessary accreditation for you to be able to fulfil at least some of these criteria (more on accreditation later).
WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO ME IN A TRAINING ENVIRONMENT AND LEARNING JOURNEY?
Think about the best and worst learning environments you've been in. Each coaching school will have a distinct training style which may be more or less suited to you.
> The size of the group. Our group size is around 20-25 but we know some training organisations who have over 100 people in a room. Do you like the bigger groups with the buzz and energy that comes with them, or do you prefer a more focused and personalised group?
> Is the training online or live classroom based? Is there is a blended approach which includes some of both?
> Is there a much writing or private study? Is it academic or practical and reflective?
> Is it chalk and talk or do you get to practise, reflect and play with ideas?
Thinking about what you want from your actual training experience is vital in helping you choose the right course. We've developed our course over a number of years and believe our smaller, more focused group sizes, focus on real-life practice and reflection and our support structure provides a learning environment that really helps to embed the fundamental skills of being a great coach. But you need to decide for yourself whether the features of our training are right for you personally. You can find more about the coaching course itself here to get a better sense of the training environment and learning journey.
WHAT TRAINING OR SKILLS DO I HAVE ALREADY?
Are you starting coach training from scratch? Or have you had training previously and are looking to master your coaching, or build specialist skills and expertise? Perhaps you have coaching hours under your belt, and wish to become credentialed, or a qualified supervisor to help others to be more effective coaches?
Our course is aimed at people who are beginners in coaching, or perhaps have a relatively basic understanding of coaching and want to build on that. So if you're already at an advanced level, perhaps what you're looking for is not a core coaching course but specialist coaching skills – these can often be shorter and less expensive than a full programme. Our Specialist Short Coaching Courses are a great example of this type of training.
Similarly, more and more often we have potential students approach us who have a background in related professions such as Psychotherapy, Psychology or Counselling. Given that coaching often draws on approaches that originate from other psychological interventions, and utilises these approaches from a different perspective, the chances are if you have a background in a profession such as this, that the content you learn in itself may not be new. So in this case, the main question is whether the investment in this course provides you with enough benefit in the form of approaching similar concepts from a different perspective, as well as other factors such as the support network and accreditation. More on that here.
Back to the premise of not all coaching qualifications being created equally. To be sure you choose one which is worth more than the paper it's written on, you want to choose a course that is professionally accredited.
In the UK, we recommend that you choose a coaching course which is accredited by both the International Coach Federation (ICF) and the Association for Coaching (AC). These are the two main professional bodies governing the self-regulated coaching profession. Any training course accredited by these bodies will have gone through a rigorous quality assurance process. So to choose a life coaching course accredited by the ICF and AC ensures you will receive an excellent training.
Life coaching courses accredited by both the ICF and the AC are rare. You can search for ICF accredited life coaching courses here. The Diploma in Transformational Coaching is accredited by both the ICF and AC, as well as providing an exceptional mix of theoretical and practical training, in a flexible programme.
Once you have some insight into your own coaching goals, and understand ICF and AC accreditation, it is time to do your homework and look at the various coaching courses out there.
Whichever course you choose is likely to cost you a fair amount in the short term until it pays for itself, and therefore you need to choose wisely.
A quick online search will give you a bewildering array of coaching courses and different fees. There are some courses which cost in the region of £9,000. Others, generally those with a focus on distance learning are significantly cheaper (some less than £500!).
No matter what the cost, you are investing a significant amount, both in terms of time and money into your life coaching qualification, so you need to do your homework and check what you are getting for the fee. This means you need to have a clear understanding of what the course covers, and what is included in the fee that you are paying.
Additionally, if cost is a defining factor for you when selecting a coach training course, there are some schools, like ourselves, that offer payment plans which enable you to spread the cost across several months (we allow the cost to be spread over up to 10 months, depending on how far in advance you register), making it a more comfortable commitment.
Thinking back to what is important for you as part of a learning journey, it is key to search for a programme that provides what you're looking for in terms of the content and learning environment. Consider group sizes, how the training will be delivered, balance of theoretical and practical learning, the level of support you get outside the classroom. All of these will be a factor in your enjoyment of the course, and as such it is important to understand not just what, but how you will be learning.
> REQUIRES REAL-LIFE CLIENT WORK – Coaching is, first and foremost something you do, not just something you know. It's a skill that requires honing. Just as you wouldn't expect to learn to drive merely by reading a book, nor would you expect to become a coach without practising it – a lot. So be sure that any course you choose includes the need for you to actually get out there and undertake real-life practise with real-life clients, not just practice in a training environment.
> SHOULD INCLUDE OBSERVATION, MENTORING AND SUPERVISION – Following on from the above, if you really want the best learning experience, you'll want to be sure that you have the opportunity to be mentored, and for your coaching practice to be observed and supervised. Make sure the course includes mentoring, supervision and observed practice if you want to become a skilled coach.
> FACILITATES REFLECTIVE LEARNING – Coaching is a skill that develops with time and, as a result, we believe that any coaching course that sets out to help you become a genuinely skilled coach should encourage reflective learning.
> HAS A RIGOROUS QUALIFICATION AND ASSESSMENT PROCESS – How do you know if you're ready to move from training to becoming a professional coach? Well, one way, at least, is knowing that your coaching skills have been assessed to a good standard. If simply turning up to training is enough to pass, then that doesn't say good things about the quality of the coaches being produced. Be sure that the school you choose assesses you by using such methods as recorded or live sessions, reflective practice and a client log. If they're not checking you, then they're not checking anyone!
> SUPPORT AND COMMUNITY, BOTH DURING AND AFTER TRAINING – Becoming a great coach is a journey that doesn't end after your training finishes. Ask yourself how strong the support network is, both in terms of formal support from the training organisation but also current and former students who are there to provide support, guidance and ideas to help you with your own coaching practice. It's difficult to overstate how helpful a good support network is and it's something we're enormously proud of at Animas. An element that our students, current and former, consistently mention when talking about the the biggest impacts on their coaching journey. You can find out more about our community here.
> TRANSPARENCY – Any training school worth its salt will be able to offer you an example of a course syllabus or conversations with a course consultant to find out exactly what their course entails, allowing you to work out just how well it fits in with what you are looking for from your training.
Similarly, any school with genuine credibility should be completely transparent about its fees and not have any hidden charges. So we would definitely recommend ensuring that you feel absolutely clear about the fees involved. If there is anything that feels confusing or unclear and the organisation doesn't help you clarify the source of that confusion, or you sense a reluctance to discuss this openly, then take that as a red flag.
Embarking on a life coaching course, and potentially career, can be a big commitment. Talking to people who have undertaken the training you're considering will help reaffirm whether it really is right for you or not.
There are a number of different ways you can do this. You could join an online coaching forum such as the Coaching and Mentoring Network and ask the opinions of those who are qualified coaches.
Most professional coaching schools will also have a range of testimonials (ours are here) from former students freely available on their website, and in some cases other materials that reflect previous opinions on the course from those that have qualified. Feel free to pop over to our blog posts or video interviews to see what our current and former students are up to.
At Animas, as well as being able to speak with one of our course consultants to find out anything you'd like about the course, we are also more than happy to introduce you to people who have done the training, so you can hear about their experiences firsthand.
Considering all of the above, we want to reiterate the importance of selecting a life coaching course that works for you and fits in with you, your lifestyle and your goals.
The majority of people choosing to train on our course become life coaches as a secondary career. As such, there are still bills to be paid, and restrictions to work around. Therefore choose a course that suits your specific needs, perhaps mixing both live training at weekend sessions, with online and offline study too. At Animas we provide the option of both weekday or weekend training, along with a mix of online and offline input, to give students the flexibility to choose what fits them.

Bai Ming is one of the most renowned representatives of contemporary Chinese ceramic art, and is famous both in the USA and in France for his unique, pure forms in colours that are at once both delicate and brilliant. Bai Ming states: "The aesthetic spirit of popular Chinese tradition is present in all my art, not only in its influence on the artistic form, but also in the materials and in that meticulousness which suggests a deep understanding of nature and the divine sphere. I aspire to preserving in my works all the information linked to the Chinese tradition: we should not try to look for modernity in modern times." In his work it is possible to trace the dual suggestion of Chinese landscapes in which Bai Ming grew up and in tradition: from ink painting to "Impressionist" references to Neolithic ceramics. It is important for the artist to preserve this link with time: the materials are freed to better unleash their potential and their beauty. Each object is an act of "visual and spiritual rebirth in which the porcelain originates from a patient dialogue between fire and clay in order to create a fragile but eternal vase".
In Conversations Bai Ming's works, which have never been exhibited in Italy, 'converse' with those of some students from the Department of Ceramic Art in the Academy of Arts and Design of the prestigious Tsinghua University, which he directs and where he teaches. It is a challenge and a comparison taken up by Jin Zhenhua, Xu Runhui, Zhu Guodong, Wang Guodong, Sun Yue, Cui Jiuxiao, Han Xiangdong, Go Hyerim, Wei Yunnong, Liu Peiyang, Sun Jialing, and Yu Mengtong.
The exhibition also includes a small section dedicated to some of the eighteenth-century Chinese porcelain belonging to the Querini Stampalia collection. Cups, plates and vases with multicoloured decorations depict the taste of an epoch and the passion for the exotic, the East – in other words the 'Chinamania' that exploded in the West in the eighteenth century.
We Exhibit is responsible for the exhibition planning and installation, as well as the graphic design of the catalogue.

Q: Cochran's Q but for more than two outcomes Formal problem
I have a random variable $X$ that takes (unordered) discrete values $i\in [0, 2]\subset\mathbb N$ (there is no order here, I just don't know how to write it neater) that is measured $t \in [0, 3] \subset\mathbb N$ times. I can denote the true pmf. of $X$ as $\rho(t, i)$. Measurements are not independent, i.e., $\text{Cov}[\rho(t_1, i), \rho(t_2,i)] \neq 0$ for any pair $(t_1, t_2)$.
I have an estimator $f(t,i)$ that predicts/approximates $\rho$ (essentially a table of a-priori odds) and a set of $N$ observations of $X$ at different levels of $t$. From these observations I can construct the natural estimator $\hat\rho(t,i) = x_{i,t}/N$ where $x_{i,t}$ denotes the number of times $X$ took the value $i$ at time $t$.
How can I evaluate $f$ in terms of $\hat\rho$?
Less mathy formulation
Less formally, I have a set of $N=360$ sequences of repeated measurements (repeated $t=4$ times) of a categorical variable with $i=3$ levels. I also have a hypothesized distribution $f$ for these measurements (table of odds), and I want to test this distribution $f$. What is the appropriate test to use?
I know about McNemar's test, but that one only applies to outcomes with two levels (I have more than two). Similar Cochran's Q also needs a binary outcome variable. $\chi^2$ is out as well, due to repeated measurements. This exhausts my knowledge of parameterized tests involving categorical outcomes, so I am curious what I should be doing instead.
My poor-man's solutions
I thought up two approaches to this problem, but they are courtesy of me and - since I'm actually not a mathematician - come without warranty of any kind including, but not limited to the warranty of fitness for a particular purpose. They are likely good for nothing, and I am too naive to see it.
The first test takes a subjectivist approach. I can compute the KL-divergence $D_{KL}(\hat\rho||f)$ and come up with alternative estimators, e.g., a uniform estimator $\hat\rho_\text{uniform}(t,i) = 1/i_\text{max}$, for which I can also compute $D_{KL}$. I can then treat the divergence as a fit index - lower is better - and potentially consider others, e.g. a Gini coefficient. With this I can do a "standard" model comparison. This sounds similar what people in variational inference do (? not sure).
The second test would be to bootstrap the dataset and use this to compute a $.95$-confidence bound for each $\hat\rho(t,i)$. I can then check if $f$ lies within this bound, and if not reject it as a poor estimator.
I can also combine the two, and do a bootstrap to compute the median $D_{KL}(\hat\rho || f)$, which might make the first approach more convincing?
But as I said above, likely both approaches won't do me any good, and I am simply too inexperienced to see it. - As you can see, I feel a little lost and would appreciate guidance.
Data
As per kjetil's comment, I will try to add more context here as well as the data.
The hypothesized distribution $f$ over levels $i$ of the random variable $X$ at different times $t$ takes the following form.
$t$
$t=0$
$t=2$
$t=2$
$t=3$
$i$
$i=1$
.33
.225
.25
.1
$i=2$
.47
.55
.65
.8
$i=3$
.2
.225
.1
.1
The frequency of occurence of observations at different levels of $t$ looks like this (based on $N=360$ replications):
$t$
$t=0$
$t=2$
$t=2$
$t=3$
$i$
$i=1$
130
41
105
142
$i=2$
150
253
170
141
$i=3$
80

Background
The data comes from an experiment, where humans (participants) watch a video of a robot going about its business. The objective for participants is to guess the robot's intent. The video is paused $t=4$ times and each time participants are asked to guess the robot's intent by choosing one of $i=3$ multiple-choice options. The true intent is revealed at the end of the video.
I can assume that the data from different participants is iid. Intuitively, you'd think that it matters who watched/rated the video, but - as it turns out - none of the commonly (and not so commonly) assumed confounds show any association with participant's guesses. The only one that seems to matter is level of English language proficiency; presumably, because you don't know what to do if you can't read the instructions. (The data on confounds is so boring, in fact, that I initially thought my plotting scripts were broken.)
The hypothesized distribution $f$ comes from prior work on the topic, i.e., a researcher has derived a clever model of this is how people's belief evolves when they watch a robot going about its business. It's a fairly complex model involving the way the robot behaves. At this stage, I treat it like a black box (even though it isn't, it's just kinematics and some non-linear math) and simply look at the output of said model for that one behavior that is shown in the video. This yields my hypothesized distribution $f$.
I'm not sure if I can trust this model (and its implied distribution $f$), so I want to use the data I collected to verify (or reject) the model.

I wanted very much to make it work with us, and was willing to compromise in areas that I normally wouldn't. Again, reiterating it, don't expect a decade's worth of time with her, but enjoy her good while you two are together.
Public displays of affection PDA show a lack of self-control. And I don't mean my good friend Satan.
Write to me in PM, we will talk. I think, that you commit an error. Let's discuss it.
We can communicate on this theme. So happens.

Where is Maleah Davis? Amber Alert issued for 4-year-old Houston girl missing since Friday
The 4-year-old girl's stepfather says three men abducted him, his two-year-old son and the young girl Friday night.
Author: KHOU Staff
Published: 7:12 AM CDT May 5, 2019
HOUSTON — An Amber Alert remains in effect for a missing 4-year-old who was reportedly kidnapped by three men in north Houston.
UPDATE: Volunteers search wooded area in northeast Houston for girl missing since Friday
The Amber Alert is for Maleah Davis. Maleah's stepfather, Derion Vence, told investigators he was driving to Bush Intercontinental Airport at around 9 p.m. Friday with the girl and his 1-year-old son, Courtland, to pick up Maleah's mother.
While he was near Highway 59 and Greens Road, police say Vence heard a noise with his car and pulled over to check his tire. While he was out of his car, he says he was approached by two men who were in a blue Chevrolet pickup truck.
"Two Hispanic males get out. One of the men makes a comment, that Malia looks very sweet, looks very nice," said Mark Hollbrook with Houston police homicide. "One of the males hits Derion in the head. Derion loses consciousness."
There was reportedly another man waiting in the pickup when the attacked happened.
The men then put Vence, Maleah and Courtland in their blue pickup and drove off.
Vence said he was in and out of consciousness and didn't really know where he was until 6 p.m. Saturday. He told police when he woke up he was somewhere off Highway 6 in the Sugar Land area with Courtland in his arms.
He said he walked around and asked people for help but no one would come to his aid so he walked to Sugar Land Methodist with his son. He is said to have arrived at the hospital between 9 p.m. and 10 p.m.
Courtland was not injured, according to police.
Maleah's mother, who had been flying in from Massachusetts, called someone else to pick her up from the airport when Vence didn't show up.
Houston police said traffic cameras captured the car Vence was in -- a 2011 Nissan Altima -- in Sugar Land at around 3 p.m. Saturday. The vehicle, which had recently been purchased, has temporary tags with the license plate 3092G9.
Police are not only looking for Maleah. They are also looking for the Nissan Altima, which belongs to Vence's wife, Brittany, and the blue Chevrolet crew cab pickup that the suspects were driving.
Maleah's family and friends spent Sunday evening handing out flyers at Oyster Creek Park in Sugar Land. They want to get her face out there as much as possible.
"It's a child," said Dominique Bryant. "There are families out here with children. We're just asking them to share the flyer on social media."
Bryant says everyone is aware time is of the essence.
"It's the most important thing right now," said Bryant. "I know a lot of people are tied up with the story and what's true or not true, or what makes sense, but that's not important right now. The focus is getting her home safely and as soon as possible."
On Monday, Maleah's mother, Brittany Bowens, pleaded to the public for help.
"Please, please. I just want to find my baby," Brittany said in tears. "Anything helps. Share a post, share a flyer."

Maleah is around three feet tall and weighs between 30 and 40 pounds. She was wearing a pink bow in her hair, a light blue zip jacket and gray/white/pink sneakers. She recently had brain surgery and requires significant medical care.
Anyone with information on Maleah Davis' whereabouts is urged to contact Houston police at 713-308-3600 or Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
Editor's note: This child was first reported to be 5 years old, but police on Sunday night updated the Amber Alert to indicate Maleah Davis is actually 4 years old.

Programs tailored to fit your needs, your people, and your mission.
While Organize BC offers regular public courses, we know that many campaigns need support tailored to their people and the moment they are in.
Get in touch with us and let's chat about what your needs are.
Built upon our core public programs for progressive movement-building, our customized variations are designed specifcially for your organization, your team, and your goals.
Developing an effective and inspiring campaign is an art and a science. Whether you're organizing as part of small core team or a broad coalition, our facilitators will provide a clear strategizing framework, make sure you stay focussed, and ensure you don't plan a huge rally without first articulating what you're trying to accomplish.
For campaign teams needing support to tell more effective stories about why their work matters to supporters, donors, allies and the media.
We'll work with you to adapt our Organizing: People, Power, Change curriculum to the needs of your campaign. Whether you're launching a new campaign, coming up to a major campaign peak, or seeking to re-energize your work, we got you.
"Organize BC's workshop facilitation was just what our organizers needed. The trainers provided a high-quality 3-day retreat, integrating training, coaching and community-building tailored to Alaska's unique context. Since the workshop, they have been committed to providing ongoing support to ensure our organizer's goals are met, and that the benefits of the workshop aren't lost."
Sometimes you don't need to attend a workshop or conference, but just need someone outside your organization to ask you the right questions, or to talk to an expert on skills like recruitment, strategy or digital engagement.
With our Mentorship program, we can match you or a colleague with the right campaign coach to help you get past your block.
Our custom and mentorship programs are held on demand anywhere in British Columbia.

Unclogging a bathtub drain is an unfortunate and inconvenient fact of life. Most clogs occur as a result of a build-up of hair, grease and other organic matter on the interior walls of the plumbing pipes. This accumulation can, over time, become impassable and sticky and eventually, a wad of hair or clump of soap can become lodged and will hinder the flow until water begins to back up in the pipes.
Unclogging a bathtub drain should be done as soon as you notice that there is a blockage. Often, homeowners will continue to use the tub and put up with its slow emptying, but this is a problem that won't go away on its own. Time to roll up your sleeves and fix it properly.
If the water backs up rapidly whenever you use the drain, it means the blockage is most likely close to the tub's drain opening. You'll often find that hair clogs will form around the stopper mechanism. Preventing this is easy.
Use a stainless steel strainer over the drain when you empty the tub. They only cost a dollar or so but they keep hair from going where it shouldn't. Unclogging a bathtub drain is required far less frequently if you can avoid allowing hair to become a nuisance.
Sometimes you can actually grab hold of a few strands of hair in the drain and pull them, and you'll find that a large clump will follow. Try using a wire coat hanger, bent to suit the purpose, or a pair of tweezers to grab the hairs.
Failing the above possibility, you can use a plumber's "snake" tool to poke down into the drain and clear the blockage. Either you will dislodge it by pushing it with the snake allowing it to flow further down and out, or you might be able to hook it and pull it out.
Unclogging a bathroom drain can also call for the use of a rubber plunger. Remove the drain strainer and position the plunger over the mouth of the drain. Using a pumping action, the suction should help to dislodge the blockage. You'll need to run the water to flush the debris out of the system.
When unclogging a bathtub drain, try taking off the overflow assembly plate and then remove the trip which works as a plunger and whose purpose is to trap hair. Unscrew the screws that hold the assembly plate on, take it off and you can remove the hair from the trip.
In some cases, it can be helpful unclogging a bathtub drain with chemical products. Sometimes what is needed is to dissolve and break down the greasy substances that collect on the pipes. Preferably, you will exhaust the other options mentioned above, since pouring chemicals down the drain is not particularly friendly to the environment.
Some unclogging products are made without harsh chemicals and they rely on natural acids to do the job.
If all your attempts at unclogging the bathtub drain have been unsuccessful, you might have to call a plumber to clear the blockage for you. He may remove the trap under the tub or may need to access the pipes via the basement so watch what he does in case the clogging happens again and you may be able to do it yourself the next time.
Still, preventing the blockage from happening in the first place will save a lot of hassle and inconvenience. Be aware of what you allow to flow down the drain, remove hair regularly and throw soap bits away before they have a chance to wash away through the plumbing.

How the Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement Differ?

The profit and loss account and cash flow statement are introductory presentations of the company's activities. And they are straightforward to understand.
a) Profit and loss statement: All you need to remember is that whatever income is received by the company is written on credit (right) side. Whatever expense is incurred by the company is written on the debit (left) side of the statement. The key figures on the right side to focus are sales revenue and any other income the organization has earned during that period. It is essential to observe the primary sources of payment for the company. Naturally, on a bank's P&L account, it would be mainly interest received from loans and advances, and investments. For a manufacturing organization, it should be sales proceeds from its products and other ancillary services. Similarly, the debit (left) side shows the expenses/losses incurred by the organization during that period. You may focus on a particular kind of payments like personnel cost, cost of materials, advertising and marketing expenditure, etc.
b) Cashflow statement is slightly more technical in its composition than profit and loss account. It consists of mainly 3 parts: 1) Operating activities (core business activities), 2) Investing activities representing investments made by the company, and 3) Financing activities representing the capital structure of the company. Consider this. Walmart sells wares on its online portal. But it needs money to run its operations. So, say it raises $ 1 million from some source. Now, it invests $ 0.5 million from the amount in building the online infrastructure and logistics network and uses $ 0.5 million in the routine operations of the firm. > 1 million raised will be a part of financing activities in CFS. > o.5 million used in advertisement will be a part of investing activities in CFS. > 0.5 million used in daily operations will be a part of operating activities in CFS.

A balance sheet is a summary of the financial balances of a company, while a cash flow statement shows how the changes in the balance sheet accounts–and income on the income statement–affect a company's cash position. In other words, a company's cash flow statement measures the flow of cash in and out of a business, while a company's balance sheet measures its assets, liabilities, and owners' equity.
Balance Sheet, on the other hand, is the statement which reveals the overall financial strength of the concern by showing the balances of assets, liabilities, and capital of the enterprise at a given date. In this article, we have discussed some noteworthy differences between Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement.
Cash flow Statement is as important as the other two parts (Profit & Loss Account and Balance Sheet) of the accounting information furnished in the form of financial statements at the end of the financial year. It is the statement which describes the flow of cash and cash equivalents in and out the organization. The statement is helpful to the stakeholders or say interested parties, in learning about the sources and uses of the company's cash during a particular financial year, from different activities.
Key Differences between Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement
A Balance Sheet is a snapshot of assets possessed and outstanding liabilities of the entity. Cash flow statement reflects the movement of cash during the year.
A Balance Sheet is prepared for a specific date, usually after the completion of the financial year, whereas Cash flow statement is made for a particular period.
The significant difference between the two entities is that the Balance Sheet is classified into two sections while the Cash flow statement is classified into three parts.
The Balance Sheet provides the information about the company's financial position. On the contrary Cash flow statement provides the information about the company's liquidity and stability.
The Cash flow statement is prepared on the basis of the balance sheet, but the Balance Sheet is not prepared on the basis of Cash Flow Statement.

Cash Flow Statement: Cash Flow is basically " The incoming and outgoing of a money from a company's account is called Cash flow statement"
So, Cash flow statement has two types
1- Positive Cashflow: When there is a more inflow of a money and less outflow in a company's account. It is a good for the company as it is easy for it to pay salaries to engineers, labours and other employees.
2- Negative Cashflow: When there is less inflow and more outflow of a money in a company's account. It may cause a great trouble for a company as company's assets are decreasing day by day. It may unable to to continue construction activites and procurement of materials for project completion.

This is a great place to visit, but not on weekends and school holidays . Even on weekday there were a lot of people. We traveled with kids 10 and 7 years old. They enjoyed pools and slides. This place is really impressive. We stayed at family room that was comfort but not extremely clean. Breakfast was just perfect. It's easy to get there: we took RE2 from Friedrichstrasse station, Platform 1 (Cottbus direction) to Brand Tropical Islands. You can buy tickets right under 1&2 platform moving staircase at the tickets office (not ticket machines :)))) Don't forget to buy tickets for the return journey. At Brand, Tropical Islands bus was already waiting for us. Same way back.
Whether you're hoping to slip into a sheer crochet dress or turn heads in a skin-baring triangle bikini top, it's undeniable that this style has a sophisticated vibe. The open knit lace-style of crochet allows for just enough skin to peek through to make your outfit exciting-yet-refined. Crochet also has a textured look that elevates your ensemble, and can come in just about any color to make an outfit more interesting. Whether you're sporting your favorite halter one-piece or a floor-sweeping maxi dress, these looks are sure to provide a dazzling, daring look that's fitting for a fashionista like you.
Break up the basics and fill your wardrobe with patterned womens swimwear! We're pretty much obsessed with mixing and matching patterned bikini tops and bikini bottoms. Try cute bathing suits in a tribal geometric pattern for boho vibes. Oh say can you sea an American flag bikini?! It's a super playful poolside option. Try floral beach wear to keep it girly! Keep it classic in striped swim wear. We love all kinds of printed women's bathing suits!
Bikini waxing is the epilation of pubic hair beyond the bikini line by use of waxing. The bikini line delineates the part of a woman's pubic area to be covered by the bottom part of a bikini, which means any pubic hair visible beyond the boundaries of a swimsuit.[244] Visible pubic hair is widely culturally disapproved, considered to be embarrassing, and often removed.[244]
T.I.'s geography is a whiplash-inducing, rapid-fire movement between countries, cultures, and centuries where numerous regionally specific attributes add up to a global nowhere. There is both a medieval castle and a traditional hut from Samoa; a Western town with an intentionally faded, old-school 7-Up ad painted on the wall and also the largest Balinese gate outside of Bali. Later I learn that T.I. commissioned local artisans and architects in Southeast Asia to design and fabricate the structures that were then imported to Germany.
The best place to snorkel is the Galapagos Marine Reserve. It's a protected World Heritage area where hardly no fishing is permitted. Where is it? The marine reserve stretches out all the way around the archipelago, protecting more than 130,000 square kilometers of water. You can find exceptional snorkeling sites all around the marine reserve, but keep in mind that you'll need a permit and a guide for almost every site. This is all a part of the conservation efforts: restricting access in order to maximize the authenticity of the marine world.
Seven Mile Beach on Grand Cayman Island is a long crescent of coral sand beach on the western end of the island. Seven Mile Beach is known for its incredible beauty, and even though it's not exactly seven miles (more like 4.5), vacationers flock to its developed coastline in troves. You can spend your days lounging at a resort right on the beach, go to nearby Stingray Island and swim with the stingrays or go snorkeling with the turtles.
Whether you're hoping to hit the sand and surf in style or relax comfortably by the pool on a sunny day, PacSun's got you covered. With our collection of swimsuits for women, you can mix and match to create your own unique look. Take your pick from a variety of different patterns, colors, and textures, all with the latest trends of the season in mind.
Hawaii's biggest island has everything you could ever want to do and more. But what separates it from the other islands is Volcano National Park. Explore volcanoes, climb through old lava tubes, and watch as new lava oozes into the ocean. Then there are all the waterfalls on the island, too. Big Island has it all. I mean it's Hawaii — how could you go wrong?!
We provide a guide in the water to help our divers navigate the reef, to show off its highlights and to offer any in-water assistance that may be needed. There is no charge for this service. Many of our divers appreciate this, but it is not a requirement to follow the guide as long as you have a buddy diver. Our guides take great pride in showing you something that you have never seen, especially the marine friends that they have made diving these beautiful reefs.
When a simple, basic onepiece just won't do the trick, we recommend women's swimsuits with some extra-special detailing! We have all tons of embellished cheap swimsuits for women that love to embrace the stares. Wear a jeweled bathing suit or sequined swim suits for a hot glam look. A crochet bikini keeps your look laid-back boho (plus it doubles as a Coachella bralette)!
e're located directly on the beach, in the heart of OB, steps from the sand, from amazing cuisine, and all of the shopping on Newport Avenue and Abbott Street. Many of our guests park the car in our private hotel parking lot for free and never move the car again because everything from sunbathing and surfing to craft beer-drinking and burger-eating is within walking distance of the hotel. Ocean Beach is also centrally located with SeaWorld less than 5 minutes away and only 15 minutes from the San Diego Zoo, San Diego Airport, and Downtown.
A ticket allows you to enjoy the vibrant and colorful atmosphere of Ocean Beach while sampling delicious and craft food along the way. There will be a free trolley with multiple stops to get from one part of the neighborhood to the next. Proceeds directly support the OB Food and Toy Drive, which provides assistance to over 100 local families and seniors in need during the holidays, as well as the beloved OB Holiday Parade.
1927: First use of swimmer's breathing tube and mask. According to Dr Gilbert Doukan's 1957 World Beneath the Waves[15] and cited elsewhere,[16] "In 1927, and during each summer from 1927 to 1930, on the beach of La Croix-Valmer, Jacques O'Marchal could be seen using the first face mask and the first breathing tube. He exhibited them, in fact, in 1931, at the International Nautical Show. On his feet, moreover, he wore the first 'flippers' designed by Captain de Corlieu, the use of which was to become universal."
I lived for a month one winter at Las Piramides in the mellow village of San Marcos de la Laguna. At this incredible spiritual retreat, you get to live in your own glass-tipped pyramid in the jungle. They offer excellent programs in yoga and meditation that start with each full moon and run for the entire lunar month. The spectacular main pyramid where classes are held is along the beautiful shore of the lake.
Imagine yourself happily snorkeling around, admiring the beauty of the underwater world. Then all of a sudden, from the corner of your eye, you see someone flapping around half swimming, half drowning, scaring away half of the fish away from the sea. Yup, we've all been there at one point or another. If you're new to it, don't fret. Here's a beginner's guide to snorkeling to make sure that you don't look like THAT person.
here's a spot that might be interesting to some people. I've spent a month two years ago in Cozumel, Mexico (right across from Cancun) and found it to be really cool. I worked on cruise ships and it is one of the major cruise ship stops so there are tourists but mostly during the day while the ships are in port. Other than that it's a cool and cheap place to stay. Using the app HomeAway (similar to AirBnB) I've found a place (it was a studio in a 7 apartment bulding, with a gate and a small pool in the back) that I paid $350 for a month for. The internet was very good and there were a few big supermarkets close by. Cozumel, for example is one of the top spots for scuba diving in the Caribbean and the side of the island that's opposite to downtown where the cruise ships dock is full of beaches that rarely anyone goes to but it's a great spot for windsurfing for example.
Hi Kyle. Greetings from "a 26 year old flight risk"—as I've begun calling myself. I pursued a career in information networking with the option to work from home so I could gypsy around. So far, I've only spent significant time around US cities, but I want to venture out to somewhere tropical and laid back. Taghazout, Morocco sounds like my kind of place, have any suggestions for where/how to find an inexpensive villa?
During my time as a digital nomad, I've done a lot of research to find the ideal places to spend the winter where there is rich culture, natural beauty, reliable high-speed Internet, a low cost of living and a thriving community of English-speaking digital nomads. I'm also not a big drinker or partier, so I like to avoid the superficial party scenes and go to places where I can meet interesting expats and get work done.
I'm currently doing the DN thing in San Pancho Mexico, and I think we might have to spend some time in the Oaxacan coast after we're done here. We love staying in apartments and we've got a 2 level, 2 bedroom, 2 bath place here for just $400! Really sweet. We're near PV though so you still get some of the "all inclusive" crowd, but mostly you get expats who from north america who want to bring home to Mexico. Western restaurants, american music etc. Don't get me wrong, we love it, but after reading this I look forward to the authenticity of Oaxaca.
The water is divided into surfing and swimming/boogie board zones. Family-friendly, well-patrolled by lifeguards and home to sunbathing, surfing, fishing, sailing, shopping, pier strolling and lots of fun. Just across the street to the south is the Ocean Beach Municipal Pier. One-half mile long, above the crashing waves with unbelievable views of the San Diego coast. Ocean Beach Pier is one of the few places in San Diego where you can fish without a valid California fishing license. Half way out, there's a Cafe' and a tackle shop. To the north, the beach offers a designated area, Dog Beach, where dog owners can let their pets romp in the surf - Dog Beach is 24/7 off leash. All of our ground floor Patio Rooms are pet-friendly without an additional fee.
The 1950s were the heyday of older-generation snorkel-masks, first for the pioneers of underwater hunting and then for the general public who swam in their wake. One even-minded authority of the time declared that "the advantage of this kind of mask is mainly from the comfort point of view. It fits snugly to one's face, there is no mouthpiece to bite on, and one can breathe through either nose or mouth".[56] Another concluded with absolute conviction that "built-in snorkel masks are the best" and "a must for those who have sinus trouble."[57] Yet others, including a co-founder of the British Sub-Aqua Club, deemed masks with integrated snorkels to be complicated and unreliable: "Many have the breathing tube built in as an integral part of the mask. I have never seen the advantage of this, and this is the opinion shared by most experienced underwater swimmers I know".[58] Six decades on, a new generation of snorkel-masks has come to the marketplace (see Figure 3).
EvThis beautiful island is by far the most popular holiday destination in Indonesia. It combines fine sandy beaches, powerful surf, exotic temples, luxurious palaces, miles of verdant rice fields and stunningly beautiful nature. If you get tired of lying on pristine beaches or diving colorful reefs, go inland and visit huge volcanoes and untouched jungles, or pay respect at the Cliffside Uluwatu Temple. Bali resorts are world famous for their opulence and luxury.
The Park and Cliff House Railroad ran west along California Street and then along the coast to turn south on 48th Avenue. This 36-inch (91 cm) narrow-gauge railway began service in 1887 with six 2-4-2T Baldwins (C/N 8955, 8961, 8973, 8974, 9065 & 9073). The company was reorganized as the Ferries and Cliff House Railroad with two more 2-4-2T Baldwins (C/N 9756 & 9763) built in 1889. These locomotives were widely distributed during the first decade of the 20th century. One went to the Diamond and Caldor Railway, one to the Oahu Railway and Land Company, one to the San Jose and Santa Clara Electric Company, one to the Glynn and Peterson Lumber Company, and two to the Red River Lumber Company in Westwood, California.[8]
Modern designs use silicone rubber in the mouthpiece and one-way clearing and float valves due to its resistance to degradation and its long service life. Natural rubber was formerly used, but slowly oxidizes and breaks down due to ultraviolet light exposure from the sun. It eventually loses its flexibility, becomes brittle and cracks, which can cause clearing valves to stick in the open or closed position, and float valves to leak due to a failure of the valve seat to seal. In even older designs, some snorkels were made with small "ping pong" balls in a cage mounted to the open end of the tube to prevent water ingress. These are no longer sold or recommended because they are unreliable and considered hazardous. Similarly, diving masks with a built-in snorkel are considered unsafe by scuba diving organizations such as PADI, BSAC because they can engender a false sense of security and can be difficult to clear if flooded.
Miles of beaches , old world village atmosphere, historic portuguese fort and buildings and pretty good diving with clear water in Summer….it's cheap to rent if you arrive in august before high season , weather good , people are super friendly and internet is ok, my wife teaches english online and it seems ok, I teach diving here. It's really how you imagine Brazil to be 50 years ago. Big tourist center , but also easy to get a really remote place . I like it , Portuguese helps you make friends though , which I speak

Snorkelers normally wear the same kind of mask as those worn by scuba divers. By creating an airspace, the mask enables the snorkeler to see clearly underwater. All scuba diving masks consist of the lenses also known as a faceplate, a soft rubber skirt, which encloses the nose and seals against the face, and a head strap to hold it in place. There are different styles and shapes. These range from oval shaped models to lower internal volume masks and may be made from different materials; common choices are silicone and rubber. A snorkeler who remains at the surface can use swimmer's goggles which do not enclose the nose.
OB is a boho beach community, so what else can you expect but dive bars, right? Winstons Beach Club is your place for live music—usually some sort of cover band in the Dead/Reggae/Jam band vein. Comedy shows are also regularly scheduled there. The Catalina Lounge is your popular, friendly dive bar, as is the Tilted Stick. The Arizona Cafe has cleaned up its act and is now a cool hangout with pool tables and big TVs for watching sports.
Although child-sized bikinis appeared in the 1950s, in many European countries, swimsuits below size 11 are commonly not sold with a separate top, but in the United States, Britain, and Canada, it has often been considered unacceptable for girls in late childhood (ages 7–11) to go topless.[citation needed] Several incidents of families being evicted from public pools due to their child being topless have been reported.[112] In 2002, clothing retailer Abercrombie & Fitch came under criticism for selling child-sized thong bikinis and underwear.[113]
The self-proclaimed culinary capital of the Caribbean, Barbados doesn't disappoint. For the ultimate foodie experience, travelers should time their visit to include the annual Barbados Food and Rum Festival. To understand the importance of rum to Barbadian culture, visitors will want to go to Mount Gay distillery. Founded in 1703, it has the distinction of being the world's oldest rum producer, and visitors can learn all about its story. This magical island is also called "Land of Flying Fish," due not only to the abundance of flying fish, but also to islanders' mastery at deboning and cooking it. In fact, the national dish is Flying Fish and CouCou, a must-taste experience.
I've traveled quite a bit internationally as my husband is from Austria so I've visited some of the places you've mentioned. But I'm looking to leave MI for 3 months in winter and head down south, but have to stay in the US due to my husband staying back in MI for work, so he would fly down and visit me once a month. Plus my two kids will be in college, so I'd like them to have the chance to visit me as well.
The total length, inner diameter and/or inner volume of a snorkel tube are matters of utmost importance because they affect the user's ability to breathe normally while swimming or floating head downwards on the surface of the water. These dimensions also have implications for the user's ability to blow residual water out of the tube when surfacing. An overlong snorkel tube may cause breathing resistance, while an overwide tube may prove hard to clear of water. A high-volume tube is liable to encourage a build-up of stale air, including exhaled carbon dioxide, because it constitutes respiratory dead space.

Why are Prefab Homes so Popular?
With the world today in such a fast paced mode, there is a need for everything to be done in a hurry. This is even true when it comes to finding a home. For some people they want to have a new home of their own, but do not have the time or even the money to have one built. This is not a problem anymore; there are now prefab houses to fix this problem. A prefab home or pre-manufactured home is a good choice for many people. The current state of the economic strength is also a reason why many people are turning to prefab homes instead of having a home built or buying a home that is way out of their price range.
Consumers are taking a cut in pay and with all of the other costs of living going up, they will have to choose between a home that is falling down and needs a lot of costly repairs or get a prefab house to fit their budget. One thing that you must have for the prefab home is a piece of property to have it placed on. Many people find it cheaper to just go out and buy a piece of land to have for their homes. This is a great idea for anyone that wants to have a place of his or her own. For others, it is necessary to rent a piece of land for their house to sit on. There are many local communities that are set up especially for these types of homes.
Prefab houses are very nice. There is really nothing wrong with living in one of these. They are generally brought onto the land site in two pieces and then bolted together in the middle. You can really never tell that this has occurred once you are moved in. Anyone that is buying a prefab home will have many choices to make with their purchase.
They will have to choose almost everything in the home. This will include everything from windows, and doors to carpeting and counter tops. Owners of prefab homes will have the choice of the lower grade or they can up grade anything that they want.
A prefab home is a wonderful way for anyone that is on a fixed income or for a new couple that is just starting out. When you cannot afford the house of your dreams, you can surely start with a prefab home. These home are comfortable and will give you the option to choose what you want for your home. You will have the opportunity to decide on these things and what you can afford for your budget.
Having a prefab home will be just like having a regular home. You will go through a bank and have a mortgage on the home. You will pay a percentage rate on the home just as you would for any other loan. You will have a home of your own just as you want it and be able to afford it as well.

Meet the anti-Trump candidate running to become the United States' first Native American governor
In a year when the rights of indigenous people have been under assault, from Standing Rock to the president's Twitter feed, a largely unknown politician is pushing back by launching a campaign to become the country's first Native American governor.
Paulette Jordan, a 37-year-old Idaho state representative and member of the Coeur d'Alene Tribe, is running as a progressive Democrat to try and become state governor.
"We're blessed with land. We're blessed with the goodness of what the land gives back to us, and what makes us prosperous and so I think we as leaders can enhance that — enhance the image of Idaho and all these ways," Jordan said in an interview. "I want people to trust and believe that I can make this difference."
Jordan was born and raised in north Idaho and has ancestry from several local tribes. A former member of the Couer d'Alene tribe's council who comes from a line of tribal chiefs dating back to her great-grandfather, Jordan sees her heritage and time in tribal leadership as a key piece of her identity — and it plays heavily into her politics.
"I was the youngest person on that council," Jordan said. "To be able to be in a room with these elders, listening to their needs and their perspectives, their stories and their values — that's something you don't ever want to take for granted."
Among her most emphasized political priorities is her commitment to environmental protection and conservation, which she says comes directly from her family's commitments to stewardship of the earth and protecting it at all costs.
"My grandfather said, 'never forget your contract with Mother Earth. You always have that contract with Mother Earth as indigenous people," Jordan said. "And that is to protect her at all costs. That means to keep our air clean. To keep our water clean. Protect our land and ensure she's always respected. If we grow, we harvest, and we take the gifts that she gives us, but we don't ever try to hurt her."
Jordan said in an interview that she also feels a strong personal connection to one of the biggest political issues in Western state politics right now: the conservation of federal lands and national monument sites that the Trump administration is determined to sell off.
Recently, President Donald Trump went against the wishes of locals in the conservative state of Utah and drastically reduced the size of federally protected Bears Ears National Monument and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument to open them up for oil and gas drilling.
"We have this president who decides to open up [monument sites] for oil and gas extractions to basically to ravage the land in every way possible for the benefit of the corporations," she said. "Now that, to me, is not only unlawful but goes back to being a detriment to the people."
The will to protect federal lands from privatization has typically been bipartisan in western states. In Montana's special election in May, both Democratic candidate Rob Quist and Republican candidate Greg Gianforte came out strongly in favor of keeping federal public land public. But private industry has lobbied the Trump administration to oppose popular sentiment on the issue.
"The truth is, in fact, that we've created hundreds of thousands more jobs through clean energy developments than we have through fossil fuel developments," Jordan said. "The president is choosing to lie to the general public for these reasons, for his own sake to take from the public. Take from the people. And that is wrong."
Jordan's environmentalism is bolstered by her lifestyle as a sportswoman and devotee of Idaho's rural outdoor culture.
"I grew up riding bareback, horseback riding and grew up in the country," Jordan said. "I'm from a farming family on my mother's side and on my father's side it was a very strong, lengthy ranching heritage."
Before Jordan can mount a Democratic campaign for governor, she'll face a competitive primary in the state against Boise businessman A.J. Balukoff — who previously ran for governor in 2014 but lost to incumbent Republican Governor Butch Otter, who is retiring and will not seek re-election in 2018.
Balukoff, who donated to Mitt Romney's presidential campaigns in both 2008 and 2012, is running as a pro-business moderate candidate to win over swing voters in the conservative state.
Progressive organizers in the state, however, claim that the grassroots energy in the state is firmly behind Jordan's candidacy.
Stephanie Rohrbaugh-Ayers, a local organizer with the north Idaho and Eastern Washington chapter of the group Indivisible, said in an interview that she and other progressives in the area have been energized by Jordan's candidacy.
"I'm really excited about it," Rohrbaugh-Ayers said. "[Balukoff] is not really progressive."
Luke Mayville, co-founder of the group Reclaim Idaho, which launched a campaign to expand Medicaid in the state, thinks that Jordan's campaign has the potential to rally an energized electorate, and win the kind of unlikely victory that helped propel Republicans to power in several blue states in the 2010 midterm elections.
"There are groups all over the state that popped up after the presidential election," Mayville said. "And a lot of those groups are eager to participate proactively in elections because for years they've been working mainly against something — namely to block awful legislation — and now they see these elections as a chance to work for something."
Jordan, who describes herself as "very progressive," says that, if elected, she will move immediately to expand Medicaid in her state. Idaho's Republican governor Butch Otter and the state legislature have resisted this move for years. She also believes that the Democratic party needs to "remodel itself to be more progressive" in order to engage future generations.
While Jordan's political leanings are to the left of a traditional Idaho candidate, she does hold several positions that are not typical of progressive candidates nationwide. She says that she is personally "pro-life," but supports a woman's right to choose.
"I was raised by a Catholic and I'm very spiritual," she says. "So when I say pro-life I don't want to over-politicize it. It just means that I'm respectful of all life," Jordan said.
She also claims to enthusiastically support the rights of lawful gun owners in her state. These beliefs put her among a new crop of self-identified "progressives" in red states who adopt populist positions on issues like health care, but take more moderate or conservative stances on issues like abortion and gun control.
Even with her carefully moderated stances on issues like abortion and gun rights, Jordan is set to face an uphill battle running as a progressive in Idaho, a state which hasn't elected a Democrat for governor since 1990, and which Trump won by more than 30 points in 2016.
But after Doug Jones' historic win of Alabama's senate seat, Democrats are newly emboldened to go after statewide elections in deeply red jurisdictions.
Jane Kleeb, a board member of the progressive group Our Revolution and Democratic party chair of Nebraska, says she believes 2018 could be the year for a new kind of populist Democrat to win in conservative territory.
"What I'm seeing on the ground in Nebraska and other red states and rural communities is a clear stance from voters saying they want their politicians to actually be in that job because they want to help people," she said in an interview.
"I think there's this task for Democrats in red states to essentially communicate to voters that the Democrats are the ones on the 'helping people' train — that we believe in expanding pre-K, making child care more affordable to families and having a path to Medicaid expansion — that's where I think this could be a different type of year."
Should Jordan win her primary, she will likely face off against Republican Rep. Raul Labrador, who announced in May that he'll be stepping down from his congressional seat next year to run for governor. Labrador, a member of the House's staunchly conservative Freedom Caucus, has the lowest approval ratingsof any member of the state's congressional delegation. Labrador's reputation with his state's Republican Party is also less than sterling after he endorsed a challenger running against Idaho's popular incumbent Republican governor in 2014.
"Our president lacks humanity. He lacks respect. He lacks honor."
Jordan, meanwhile, is focused on emphasizing Labrador's ties to big business and corporate interests.
"He listens to corporations. And that's where he goes wrong," she said. "Because there are even right-wing conservatives I know, who are my neighbors and dear friends of mine, who don't value Big Pharma or don't value Big Agriculture. They don't value corporations who are trying to run their lives."
The influence of agricultural lobbyists is of particular concern to many progressives in Idaho. A 2014 ag-industry-backed law made it illegal for journalists and animal rights activists to film the working conditions and animal treatment in factory farms across the state, which advocates say hampers their ability to expose industry abuses.
Jordan says she plans to distinguish herself to voters by emphasizing her independence from corporate influence.
An election face off between Jordan and Labrador would also be a significant step for a state with a history of harboring racist hate groups. Idaho was once home to one of the country's most infamous white supremacist movements, the Aryan Nations. In 1998, members of the Aryan Nations brutally attacked a Native American family, shooting out the tires on their vehicle, running them off the road and threatening to kill them. After the incident, the family sued the Aryan Nations in a case that forced the white supremacist group to abandon their Idaho compound.
Twenty years later, Idaho remains one of a few states in the country that isoverwhelmingly white, while the country as a whole becomes more diverse. Were Jordan to face off against Labrador, who is Puerto Rican, Idaho would not only have it's first Native American candidate for governor, but would have one of the only statewide races in the country where both major party candidates are people of color.
The importance of representation in the Trump years isn't lost on Jordan.
"Our president lacks humanity. He lacks respect. He lacks honor," she said. In November, Trump offended multiple tribal leaders by referring to Senator Elizabeth Warren as "Pocahontas" at a ceremony honoring the Navajo Code Talkers.
"For him to disrespect World War II veterans and to be the only president to have done so in the White House is disrespectful of the White House," Jordan said. "For him to bring in a U.S. senator, as he does, and try to slight the indigenous people of this land who have stood up for freedom and for this land for generations. I think that's the travesty. And that's what people should be thinking about."
Should she win the Democratic primary, Jordan's candidacy could be seen as a direct challenge to Trump's anti-Native American rhetoric and xenophobic policies.
"I always think that, in the end, what it comes down to is fighting for your community and fighting for what's right," Jordan said. "And if you want to do more, you have to move up."

Prosecutor mistakenly agrees to plea deal
United Way kicks off annual campaign, announces campaign chair
Upstate NY sheriff criticized after vouching for Jan. 6 defendant

Years in current role:18
What do you enjoy most about being a litigator?
This probably sounds corny, but I enjoy advocating. I loved debating starting in high school and I come from a family of trial lawyers, so I guess you could say it's in the blood. In personal injury litigation, I get to help people during a very vulnerable time and make a real difference in their lives. I find that very rewarding and take that responsibility very seriously.
What do you consider your biggest success in navigating the litigation process during the pandemic?
My biggest success was keeping my entire firm going through the lockdown and beyond. We were not a firm where people mostly worked remotely so there was an adjustment there as with everyone. I am very proud of how my office pulled together without a complaint and stayed just as productive as when we were all in the office. Also, we all have been back for quite some time, and I think that flexibility has been key to that transition.
What do you see as the biggest changes in the legal industry in the next 3-5 years?
As with everything in our world, I believe there will be a permanent shift toward handling many aspects of the job virtually. It remains to be seen whether this will be a positive change, but the change is here to stay.
What trial are you most proud of in your career?
The trial I am the most proud of is a case in which I represented an injured postal worker badly hurt in a collision. The insurance company refused to offer anywhere close to the policy limits of the umbrella policy, even though I told them we would settle for those limits and very much believed our client was entitled to that amount. I tried the case to verdict, and the jury awarded well in excess of the umbrella limits. We collected every last cent beyond the policy from the insurance company, something that my client and his family very much deserved.

People have the right to self-defense; they should be allowed the means.
(I wrote this essay several months ago in support of the right to carry concealed weapons on college and university campuses. I thought it might be timely to print it here.- SP)
The English 200 class slogs along in the oppressively hot and humid classroom. Of course, the air conditioning picked today to take a vacation, as the summer heat arrives early. There is likely not a single student focusing on the class. For most students, tomorrow's final will be their last. Afterward, most students will be free for summer fun, for summer jobs, or at least free from campus worries until September.
Suddenly there is a loud explosion in the near distance. After a moment of shocked silence, students scramble helter-skelter. Some hide under desks, some dash toward the door despite more explosions and nightmarish screams coming from the other side. Students begin to realize what is happening. Some yell there is a shooter loose on campus, while others just yell hoping the shooter will not select them.
When a student or professor faces such a situation, perhaps hiding behind a bookshelf in a dark corner, what are they to do? What could they do? What would they wish to do? The explosions, screams, and shooter's footsteps grow closer. In this critical, life and death situation, something else screams for an answer: at this very moment, would the student or professor rather have a gun, or not have a gun?
This timely incident in Durant, Oklahoma, which occurred during the writing of this paper, may provide an answer. A 12-year old girl was at home alone when she heard someone breaking into her house. She called her mother who told the girl to get the Glock handgun, hide in the closet, and call 911, which she did. When she heard the intruder come into her bedroom, she fired through the door wounding the burglar. "According to Bryan County Undersheriff Ken Golden, the shooting was justifiable and there were no wrong actions on the girl's part. He said that she armed herself with the Glock pistol after her mother told her to do so over the phone."
Bryan County Sheriff's Investigator John Bates said, "The girl defended herself and did what a person should do if an intruder enters a home because she armed herself, hid and dialed 911. According to Bates, she was still on the phone with the dispatcher when she shot Jones. 'She did everything you would want your kids to do if home alone,' Bates said. 'She did the right thing. What else can you ask your child to do?'" [1] While this didn't happen on a college campus, it is easy to see how similar the two situations are.
Although the right to bear arms is a constitutional right, America has undergone a cultural shift over the past several decades, especially in urban areas. In a paper dedicated to training human resources professionals on how to respond to legally permitted employees who carry concealed weapons in the workplace, which is similar to the college campus situation, the author describes the reactions of employees to word that a fellow employee brings a gun to work with him: "But he hasn't been a problem in the 8 years he has worked here—right? Asked Rob again. "You got it boss," said Connor. "In fact, he has been a model employee. "Just what I needed," grumbled Rob. "I'm sorry boss, but it is mass hysteria. Everyone is talking about the shooting at Tech and it's getting worse by the minute."[2] This hysteria is just that, hysteria, not rationality.
The issue at hand, however, is an individual right the Framers recognized in the Second Amendment. Although a debate has raged for years regarding the, "militia clause," in 2008 the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a Washington D.C. gun ban marking the first time it had specifically recognized the Second Amendment pertained to individuals. Since Amendments One, Two, Four, Nine, and Ten all incorporate the phrase, "the People," when recognizing rights, is it logical that James Madison meant, "the People," for all the Amendments except the Second?
With regard to the Court holding that governments may ban guns in "schools," an article titled, Supreme Court strikes down a gun ban and raises questions for college campuses, provides information on an issue that may affect colleges or universities with regard to their current campus gun bans. The authors present issues surrounding the definition of, "campus" and "school." Proponents of being able to carry guns on campus hold that, "a major question, says Robert L. Clayton, a lawyer who specializes in higher education, is the definition of the word "school," which in academic parlance usually refers only to elementary and secondary institutions." [3] The argument is that college campuses, which can cover many locations throughout a city or area, is different from a single location elementary or secondary school.
A gun, like a car, is a tool, albeit intimidating to the uninitiated, which people use for positive, and sometimes negative, purposes. Consider the following: good people with guns have been responsible for the U.S. winning its independence from Great Britain, for freeing the slaves, for defeating the Nazis, thus liberating millions worldwide. People acting with positive motives, armed with guns, have been responsible for countless acts of individual self-defense (including defense of others) across America. "Guns [are] used 2.5 million times a year in self-defense. Law-abiding citizens use guns to defend themselves against criminals as many as 2.5 million times every year — or about 6,850 times a day." [4]
Gun control advocates work to sway children and young people toward thinking negatively about guns. This includes using public institutions such as schools, primary, secondary, and college, to do so. The ubiquitous sign, "Gun-Free Zone," is one method gun opponents employ. Often institutions post these signs among other signs, which prohibit criminal activities such as, trespassing, drugs and public alcohol use. It seems logical to ask if this has an overt, or at least subconscious, effect on children, and adults, which negatively influences their views on firearms in general.
The negative influences on children, and adults including college students who have grown up with "Gun-Free Zone" signs bring up a broader issue of the efficacy of the gun-free zones they announce. Common sense is all that is necessary to conclude they do not work for the purpose intended, unless that purpose is to make people who already follow rules obey.
Admittedly, gun-free zones do one thing well: they keep law-abiding citizens, those who are more likely to protect students rather than harm them, from carrying guns on campus. Does anyone truly believe "Gun-Free Zone" signs prevent criminals, intent on mayhem, from bringing a gun onto a college campus? Any person would have to question the intent, if not the intellectual honesty, of anyone who suggests a simple sign would prevent an armed madman from entering any open campus. That criminals intent on harming people on a mass scale are much more likely to target a facility that prohibits guns is obvious. When was the last time a crazed shooter showed up to wreak havoc at a gun show or a police station?
Gun bans on campuses and sanctions for violating them are not likely to prevent crazed killers from carrying guns onto campus. "For example, expelling students or firing professors for violating campus gun-free zones represent real life changing experience for law-abiding citizens… But even assuming the killer survives the attack, it is absurd to imagine that after facing multiple life prison sentences or death penalties for killing people, the threat of expulsion from school will be the penalty that ultimately deters the attack." [5]
Opponents to carrying guns on campus, who are often people who advocate for gun control, do raise some legitimate concerns, which deserve reasonable responses. Some legitimate concerns in the ostensible defense of campus gun bans are listed below.
1. What level of training do those who choose to carry have?
2. Is there a danger of accidental shootings?
3. Innocent bystanders might get shot.
4. The police will respond to save people.
It is important to understand that the vast majority of students, faculty, and staff will continue unarmed and unaffected by this issue as they always have. The right or ability to carry a gun will not turn a campus into a quasi-Switzerland where the government mandates gun possession. "Every male when he turns 20 years old is issued a military rifle and required to keep it at home. Universal service in the militia army is required. When one is no longer required to serve, he may keep his rifle or pistol… the crime rate is very low. This is in part because of, not in spite of, the high rate of firearm ownership" (Switzerland, 2003, paragraph.). [6] Similarly, the campuses where concealed carry has already been authorized have not turned into an academic Wild West. If they had, the media would certainly have trumpeted it.
It seems logical that, as with other activities, those most interested in any activity are those most likely to want to learn more about it. A person interested in coin collecting, muscle cars, or crocheting, will be the people most interested in obtaining books, magazines, and perhaps taking seminars and classes to learn more about the activity. With individuals who are most likely to choose to carry firearms on campus, they would most likely have an interest in guns and self-defense. These are the people who would be likely to seek, or already have obtained, training. It seems logical that they would be prone to practice regularly with their guns, and to keep apprised of innovations in firearms use, safety, and self-defense training. They will also be required to have concealed carry permits (except in Alaska and Vermont), which require a significant background check.
The dangers of accidental shootings are also valid, at least on at least a prima facie basis. Whenever there is an increase in any activity, there may be an increase in various consequences of that activity including negative ones. There may be, but not necessarily will be. Obviously there are far more car, bicycle, and other accidents on campus than there are those related to firearms where government or colleges authorize carrying a gun. In fact, according to the National Safety Council, accidental shootings in general do not make the top five causes of accidental deaths in America, and accidental death is ranked number five in overall causes of death.[7] Further, for all age groups, and this includes deaths only, while 43,000 people were killed in car accidents, only 600 people died by gun accident.[8]
Again, pointing to similar reasons related to individuals interested in guns and self-defense, would not these people be more likely to handle guns safely, and to be aware of those who do not? Would responsible people who would choose to carry firearms on campus want to see anyone injured accidentally or otherwise? Are they interested in the negative publicity gun misuse would generate?
Gun control advocates often offer shrill predictions that lead will fly, and people will be ducking a hailstorm of bullets. This simply does not happen. Sen. Jeff Wentworth, R-San Antonio said, "…he heard the 'blood on the streets' warnings when Texas first passed the concealed handgun law. 'They said we'd have shootouts at every intersection,' he said. 'None of that has happened.'" [9]
"I have not found a single instance when a permitted concealed handgun was improperly used at a school. And neither the National Education Association nor the American Federation of Teachers has been able to point to a problem." [10]
People, who say they do not need guns on campus because the police are there, are not considering the reality. For example, "The average police response time for in-progress burglary is about 4 min…" [11] Just think of how many knife stabs or gun shots a criminal can commit in that time.
At a Northern Illinois University campus shooting in 2008, police arrived in six minutes. Even with this good response time, the murderer killed five people and wounded sixteen during the attack. At the 2007 Virginia Tech shooting, not knowing the whereabouts of the suspect, the police did not have the incident under control for hours, while the university community hid to protect themselves. "The slaughter at Virginia Tech and other public schools occurred in some of the few areas within their states where people were not allowed to carry concealed handguns." [12]
On the other hand, there are many examples of armed citizens taking action when a criminal opens fire. These get little publicity from the mainstream media. For example, during the Appalachian School of Law shooting in Virginia in 2002, two armed students and an unarmed, off-duty police officer, stopped the rampage by taking the shooter into custody. Gun control advocacy being so prevalent in much of the conventional media, out of 280 stories reported on the incident, only four reported that students armed with guns stopped the incident. [13]
"Overall, the problem with gun control laws is not too little regulation, but rather that the regulations disarm law-abiding citizens." [14] Why do gun bans work on law-abiding citizens but not on criminals? It is because law-abiding students, faculty, and staff, if authorities discover them carrying a gun, risk firing or expulsion, while the criminal does what criminals do: break the law. Even if the shooter were a member of the college, should he survive, facing multiple life sentences or the death penalty, the above-listed sanctions are not likely to present much of a deterrent.
Most rational people recognize a right to self-defense. This being the case, it makes no sense that a college student while on campus would not enjoy a commensurate right to the most practical, efficient, and effective means to carry out that defense of self and others.
If the college cannot guarantee students' safety, then should it prohibit students from taking steps to protect themselves? Utah Republican State Senator Michael Waddoups put it this way, "If government cannot protect you, you should have the right to protect yourself." [15] If handguns were not the most efficient, effective, and practical means of self-defense against criminals, then law enforcement agencies would not equip their police officers with handguns, they would choose something "better."
Gun opponents do have some legitimate concerns. One is the belief that signs prohibiting guns will prevent any criminal from carrying a gun onto a college campus. The second issue is the assumption that law-abiding citizens who carry guns on campuses make colleges less safe. Data shows guns make communities and citizens, including campuses and students, safer. "According to a 1997 study of National Crime Victimization Survey data, 'robbery and assault victims who used a gun to resist were less likely to be attacked or to suffer an injury than those who used any other methods of self-protection or those who did not resist at all.'" [16]
A gunman is closing in. The gunshots are growing closer. The screams rise and then some fall all too suddenly. Maybe the hidden student has already seen fellow students or a professor shot. At this critical life and death moment, would that student rather have a gun or not have a gun? The answer seems obvious.

Seattle police officer will never violate his fellow citizens' Second Amendment rights.
As always, I speak for myself and not my city, department, mayor, or chief. After the media skewering I received from Seattle government in 2011 for daring to speak against its radical social justice agenda, it is no secret that I am a Seattle police officer. I have served the citizens proudly for more than two decades now.
What I have to say in this column affects me as a cop and you as a citizen. The current dash by left-wing gun control radicals even further to the fringe, racing to exploit the tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut, is as shameful and frightening as it is expected. Once again, the ends justify the means.
I only have personal experience with the City and Department violating my First Amendment rights, and not my Second Amendment rights. However, I figure if Seattle's political and administrative liberals, who are ostensibly free speech supporters, would so readily violate the speech rights they purport to revere, surely they would not hesitate to violate gun rights they obviously detest. An ineffectual "gun buy-back" program will initiate new "gun-safety" efforts later this month. Can more insanity, or perhaps more appropriately, inanity, be far behind?
It is not enough for police officers simply to have decided for themselves as law enforcement officers that they will not enforce Second Amendment-infringing laws and policies. Cops should be particularly explicit in announcing that they will not stand by while the government makes criminals out of law-abiding citizens. They need to think ahead of time where the line is that they will not cross.
One top cop who recently gouged his line in the Linn County, Oregon sand is Sheriff Tim Mueller. His eloquent defense of his citizen's liberty and gun rights, in a letter to Vice President Biden, should inspire all officers. Sheriff Mueller minced no words when he declared neither he nor his deputies would enforce any laws abridging the Second Amendment. Hooray for this brave Sheriff. He is a true American leader.
Saying one will not enforce a particular law may seem somewhat frivolous, or even insubordinate. However, as is the case in Seattle, the liberal government had no problem not enforcing marijuana laws (before legalization), and enforcing/not enforcing the traffic crime of Driving While License Suspended 3rd Degree, according to a biased social justice criteria. Laws abridging a constitutional amendment certainly rise higher in importance than pot and traffic offenses.
Some aspects of the current gun issue stand out. One is a disconcerting disconnect regarding the link between self-defense and the means to self-defense. There is nearly universal acceptance that people have the right to defend themselves and others from those who would do them harm. This being the case, how do those who advocate for gun control reconcile their support for self-defense with their opposition to the most practical means to that defense? If handguns, rifles, and shotguns were not the most practical and effective means of personal defense, governments would be arming their law enforcement and military with something else.
We are fortunate here in Washington to have an exceptionally explicit state constitutional right to bear arms, especially when compared with other states such as New York. Having said that, even states like Washington need to be careful. How do I know this? The federal constitution also provides strong gun rights protections, but regardless of the Constitution, we have an enemy that will never fail to exploit death and disaster in order to attack the Second Amendment and law abiding gun owners.
When we have states passing ludicrous gun and magazine capacity restrictions and even confiscation laws, and a federal government considering doing similarly, but with executive orders, can the people of any state in the union truly be secure in their right to keep and bear arms? Outlaws do not obey laws! They're outlaws. Do we really have to keep saying this?
I have long attempted to provide an opposing viewpoint to Seattle government's extreme liberal bias and its policy of forcing its radical social justice agenda down its employees' throats. In 2011 the City and Department violated my First Amendment rights. My Department ordered me not to talk to the media about a published article they had conceded I had a right to write, and they launched an official investigation into my private political speech, exclusively in order to insure I keep my mouth shut.
In the end, these bullies discovered a loophole that apparently allows the City to avoid liability, which they can now use to violate any of its cops, or other city employees', free speech rights. Neither the Seattle, nor Washington state, governments are friends of the Second Amendment or the Washington Constitution's gun rights. But your cops are. I, speaking for at least one of them, will never enforce a law which makes currently law-abiding gun owners, criminals, nor will I ever comply with any order to confiscate your guns.
Motivation of Gun Controllers Similar to Those who Called for Japanese Interment.
As a person who uses a gun every day to earn a living, I feel compelled to make further comments regarding the gun-control lunacy. For the life of me, I'm trying to figure out where this situation differs from those who advocated for Japanese (and to a lesser extent German and Italian) interment during WWII.
Think this is an over reach? Well, the effect and scope, certainly, but not the concept. Think about it. What resulted from the Japanese internment was, based upon the emotional madness of the time, the taking of American citizens who had broken no laws, and treating them as if they had broken laws. The gun control advocates are now subjecting law abiding citizens to the same requirements as sex offenders.
Today we have newspapers publishing law abiding citizen's names and home addresses, including those of police officers, prosecutors, judges, and domestic violence victims, simply because they possess a legal firearms permit of some sort, and are exercising their Second Amendment rights.
The gun control advocates' argument, ostensibly, is that we should know whether or not our neighbors have guns because we might send our children there to play. If that argument is to hold, then shouldn't we be publishing the names and addresses of all those patients for whom doctors have prescribed controlled medications? You can see how carrying on with the logical fallacy, if this, therefore, that, we could come up with myriad items we might want to know about our neighbors before we send our children to play there.
Donald Kaul whose opinion piece appeared in the Des Moines Register says, "If some people refused to give up their guns, that "prying the guns from their cold, dead hands" thing works for me." He went on to say that GOP leaders should be dragged behind a truck around a parking lot until they see the light. This guy isn't just anti-gun, and totally ignorant about the Second Amendment, he suffering from gun derangement syndrome. Believe as I do or you should be tortured or killed. Apparently, 'ol Don doesn't abide gun violence, but Chevy truck violence is fine. I suppose, just as long as they're dragging the "right" people. Let's say we accept Mr. Kaul's opinion piece as simply hyperbole, aren't those on the left always calling for non-violence and civility?
Publishing the names and addresses of people who haven't done anything illegal may be statutorily legal in some jurisdictions. However, that does not change the fact that it is morally and ethically repugnant. Those who publish gun owners names should be dragged … Now, admit it. Doesn't that sound just a little bit silly?

For most of us the Internet is both miraculous and mundane. It is miraculous in that it is virtually unfathomable. Like television, telephone, radio and other technological advances, its very existence is the stuff of magic. The mundane part comes from our expectations of the Internet. Through all the digital devices that we own — everything from watches, tablets to desktops — we view being able to instantly access the trillions of facts, sites, knowledge and social opportunities on the World Wide Web with the same ennui and dispassion as we used to feel about hearing a dial tone.
But although these extremes of the extraordinary and quotidian are essentially abstract and intangible, lying between them is the physical story of the Internet — the blueprint of its pipes, channels and connections — that is often overlooked yet provides at least a grounding with which to understand the mysterious backbone of the digital age. In fact, what is perhaps most surprising about the Internet is that as a basic network it is shockingly uncomplicated. Viewed through the lens of a Rube Goldberg type diagram, the Internet is little more than a series of digital handshakes.
Boiled down to a few steps, a request from a computer to find, say, the best African safaris would likely be directed through fiber optic wires to a physical Google search facility (perhaps close to Africa where the service providers of the expedition are located). Via these same cables, Google's servers will respond with the list and simultaneously attempt to anticipate the user's next request by creating temporary links between the originating computer and the websites of the companies that are at the top of the search results. If the user clicks on one of these links, the circuit to the safari website would be instantly closed and the requested page would appear on the screen.
That's it: the Internet, like telephones, telegraph and Telex before it, is a series of wires and stimuli. One very concrete facility illustrates this best of all. At 60 Hudson Street, in downtown New York City, is the old Western Union building, a 24-story art deco landmark. This elegantly designed structure is now shared by more than 100 telecommunications companies whose millions of miles of fiber optic wires interchange Internet traffic 24/7 in its hallways, rooms, walls and ceilings. It's a cacophony of quiet communications, literally humming through the facility, much of it supporting a barrage of transactions and conversations among computers, cell towers, smart phones and tablets.
And if 60 Hudson exemplifies the massive interactivity of cables and nodes that the Internet requires, a recent ship departure in Oregon shows how challenging of a job it is to rewire the world for the Web. This 460-foot boat mostly financed by Google was destined for Japan, carrying nearly 6000 miles of fiber optic trunk line, intended to unspool and drop to the bottom of the ocean during a two-month journey. This huge undertaking involves just one of the hundreds of thousands of similar cables deposited around the world and the hundreds of thousands more planned to be hooked up as part of multiple, redundant networks owned by tens of thousands of companies.
Fiber optic cables are an Internet development distinct from any other communications channel before. Glass-like wires that rely on light instead of electricity to transmit data, fiber optic communications are extremely fast, can travel over long distances, have high bandwidth and are reliable. Most importantly, they make possible the most unique element of Internet interactions: packet switching. Unlike, for example, a landline telephone call, which is a direct connection between handsets, Internet communications travel via a series of packets or parts of a file with up to 1500 bytes.
Internet data packets can take multiple paths, eliding congested areas, separating from each other by miles, and then eventually reordering themselves before they reach their destination on a computer. The transparency of fiber optic wires enables packets to keep track of where their corresponding slices of data are and to find the appropriate files when they need to rejoin. DuPont plays a central role in strengthening fiber optics as the Internet backbone. To safeguard the optical wires from mechanical stresses, which would minimize their performance, DuPont™ Kevlar® synthetic fiber is used as a covering, providing protection from water and fire while supporting flexibility and the ability to withstand high loads. In some low diameter fiber optic applications, traditional Kevlar® is combined with resins to form a Kevlar® Reinforced Plastic.
There may be a next great build out of Internet connectivity that will bypass fiber optics in order to more quickly bring the Web to the half of the world that still doesn't have access. Instead of wires, satellites would be used to transmit data and communications. Of course, there are dozens of satellites already gamboling through space transmitting all variety of telephonic and video activities from 20,000 miles above the planet, but they have not been effective for Internet interactivity because at their high orbit they communicate too slowly with Earth to manage anywhere near the data speeds the Web requires. Recent startups like Richard Branson's OneWeb and Elon Musk's SpaceX are hoping to place satellites in low-earth orbit — about 100 to 1,250 miles overhead — to minimize latency and inefficiency of traditional satellites.
But since these new satellites are essentially narrow casting to smaller areas, hundreds of them could be needed to cover the wide-open, rural terrain where many Internet have-nots around the globe reside. Nonetheless, experts feel that a wireless approach to expand Internet access is inevitable, especially considering the significant advances taking place now in cable-free communications technologies. DuPont has numerous products commonplace in orbiting equipment that would serve well in Internet satellites. Among them are circuits built on the DuPont™ Kapton® polyimide platform, which resists water, cold and heat, as well as ceramic materials for conductors, resistors and other electrical components that can maintain performance of equipment over long periods of time in harsh space environments.

Fall is in full swing here in Virginia which means your home has lots of jobs to do. Gutters need to route water away from the house. Siding needs to insulate and protect the interior of your home. Your roof needs to stand against excessive rain, wind, and eventually, ice or snow. Is your home ready?

История
Постановлением Псковского областного Собрания депутатов от 26 января 1995 года все сельсоветы в Псковской области были переименованы в волости, в том числе Звонский сельсовет был превращён в Звонскую волость
Законом Псковской области от 28 февраля 2005 года в Звонскую волость была включена территория упраздненных Краснооктябрьской (с центром в д. Балахи) и Лобовской (с центром в д. Лобово) волостей, и в новых границах Звонской волости было также создано муниципальное образование Звонская волость со статусом сельского поселения с 1 января 2006 года в составе муниципального образования Опочецкий район со статусом муниципального района.
Законом Псковской области от 30 марта 2015 года Звонская волость была упразднена, а её территория 11 апреля 2015 года включена в состав Глубоковской волости, при этом деревня Звоны стала административным центром этой новой укрупнённой волости.

The Reagan Ruins
by Robert Borosage | Feb 1, 2011 | Blog, Reagan Revolution, Rick Perlstein | 0 comments
The celebration of Ronald Reagan's 100th birthday doesn't come until early March, but the devotions have been going on for years. For conservatives, Reagan is the lodestar, the genial demigod to whom all must avow fealty. In a Time cover story, Michael Scherer and Michael Duffy suggest that Obama considers Reagan "The Role Model." Richard Norton Smith, writing about the "Reagan Revelation," attributes Obama's uptick in the polls because he's been "acting positively Reaganesque," reaching out to the business community, scoring bipartisan victories on tax cuts, delivering a sermon in Tucson that Smith calls "worthy of the Great Communicator at his most consoling."
This is more than a bit ridiculous. (Who knew that Bill Daley, most recently JP Morgan's lead lobbyist," and GE's Jeffrey Immelt, who has shipped more jobs abroad than most CEOs, had such sway on public opinion?). But it will get much worse, as conservatives weigh in to suggest Reagan revived America, brought us together, dispatched communism with a speech and a lot of military spending, etc.
Before we go too far down this road, it is worth a reality check. Reagan, no doubt, was a transformational president. His presidency marked the beginning of 30 years of conservative domination of our politics, although Rick Perlstein argues persuasively that Nixonland tilled the soil of racial and cultural division that Reagan cultivated. (Not by accident did Reagan open his campaign in the unreachable Philadelphia, Mississippi, previously known only as the site of the infamous murders of civil rights workers Schwerner, Goodman and Chaney, where he announced his belief in "state's rights").
But take a good look at the conservative mantra that Reagan championed: less spending, low taxes, deregulation, free trade, strong military, family values. On all of these, the Gipper and conservatives got it wrong.
Less spending was perverted, since Reagan doubled the military budget in peacetime (up 50 percent in real terms). He somehow didn't believe military spending added to deficits. (Reagan never introduced a balanced budget in his presidency.) Less spending turned out to mean slash programs that support the weak and the vulnerable. Reagan opened the campaign against government domestic spending that leaves us with an aged infrastructure that is dangerous to our health, schools that put children at risk, and record numbers struggling simply to feed their families. Poverty levels began rising under Reagan and have remained high, other than in the couple years of the Clinton presidency when full employment began to lift all boats.
Low taxes turned into successive tax cuts for the rich. Reagan believed in the voodoo of the Laffer Curve, that cutting top-end taxes would generate more revenue. One thing it generated was inequality. The great leveling that marked the post-Cold War years came to an end under Reagan, as the wealthiest Americans began capturing ever greater portions of the nation's income. Today, the wealthiest 1 percent captures about 23 percent of the income, and control more wealth than the bottom 90 percent of Americans, and captured a staggering two-thirds of the rewards of growth in the last "recovery" form 2002-2007. This is the true Reagan legacy.
Free trade was the label affixed to a trade policy defined by and for multinational companies and banks. Under Reagan, America began shipping jobs rather than goods abroad. When Reagan fired the PATCO strikers, he signaled to corporate America that it was open season on unions. The combination was lethal for America's manufacturing base -- and for the family wage that was the signature of America's broad middle class.
Deregulation gutted consumer protection, environmental protection, workplace safety and the right to organize under Reagan. It led to many scandals that made his administration one of the most corrupt in history, with a record 138 officials investigated, indicted or convicted. But the biggest change was deregulation of banking, which led to successive financial wildings and crashes that have cost taxpayers literally trillions. The first was the Savings and Loan debacle that followed on Reagan's reforms that empowered banksters to gamble with other people's money, with their losses guaranteed by the federal government.
Strong military entailed wasting literally hundreds of billions of dollars on weapons we did not need and could not use, from reviving battleships to building new generations of missiles. The most notable folly was Reagan's Star Wars fantasy, which continues to waste tens of billions each year, throwing money into a program that does not work against a threat that does not exist. It is heresy for any Republican to question this folly (Rand Paul, the world awaits). The military remains the largest source of waste, fraud and abuse in the nation's budget -- yet even Barack Obama promises a freeze to domestic discretionary spending, leaving out the military, even though we're spending about as much as the rest of the world combined.
Combined with the strong military was a lawless devotion to the national security state, the belief captured by Nixon, that in the area of national security, when the president does it, it is legal. This doctrine of presidential license found expression under Reagan most notably in the Iran-Contra scandals, where the president created a secret fund and a secret army in direct violation of the laws of the land. He avoided accountability by professing ignorance and confusion.
Family values, the Republican reach to the evangelical right, were cynically used to divide Americans, not unite them, targeting blacks, women (or feminazis in Rush Limbaugh's lingo), and gays. Reagan, steeped in the ways of Hollywood, was the utter cynic. He was the only divorced man to occupy the White House, was at best a distant parent, and generally avoided going to church. While he pandered to the Christian right, he was never very serious about pursuing their agenda.
Today, America is more unequal, its middle class is weaker, its manufacturing sector is hollowed out, its bloated military, laden with baroque weaponry, can start wars but not win them. Under the banner of conservatism, predatory corporate interests -- Big Oil, Big Pharma, Wall Street, global corporations, agribusiness -- have fleeced taxpayers while feathering the nests of the few.
So let's celebrate Ronald Reagan's style. He was a great communicator, an aw shucks American original, a genial optimist. He was a transformational president who launched America on a misguided, 30-year experiment with market fundamentalism. But let's not forget the reality. His race bait politics of division were inherited from the dark side of Nixon. And his conservatism has cost this country dearly.

10 ways to Identify a Headhunter – and a Thanks!
I commented last week to a 'like' on a post with an image of my smartphone depicting Franklin Key Associates' mobile friendly website "It's 2/3 the size of punch cards we started with!". So much has changed in staffing technology in over a quarter century. Like any other profession, it's not the tools, but how a craftsman uses them.
On this Labor Day weekend I extend a thank you to the nearly 10,000 I have touched. The loyal followers I've nurtured over those years as well as each new introduction still get interaction the old fashion way – honest, personal, respectful, actionable advice. I do my best to treat both candidates and clients (they often swap roles) as I would wish to be.
Noted a post this week by a Lead Recruiter for Linkedin – a colleague 18 years ago, titled "Transforming Interviews Into Conversations." She referenced how rude it is to be taking notes on a laptop while interviewing a candidate. My comment "…it helps to avoid interview note taking on a laptop during an interview when one's staffing experience, pre-dates PC's, internet, job boards, and even fax machines!".
What I am disheartened about and consistently witness in blog threads is how the humanity has been lost as Human Resources evolved into Talent Management. People are herded into corrals with cattle prods (keywords) and recklessly butchered (using an Applicant Tracking System) like a meat market segmenting ribs from loins. Proven performers relish new challenges and rarely respond to Ads. The ATS meat grinder algorithms often filter them out – if they ever subject themselves to such a portal in the first place.
Headhunter in the old days was considered by many to be on par with a used car salesman. I'd argue in fact it is a lost art. Calling people respectfully at their place of work after researching who they might be (if not a fortunate referral), and having only about 20 seconds to make them feel that scheduling a next conversation would be valuable to them. One had to break down an organization from press releases, professional associations, and cooperative phone operators and mailroom workers. It is this craftsman-like approach that will be the savior to quality organizations who prize passive A-player candidates in a dwindling population of technical talent.
Let me quickly offer a caveat on quality organizations. They know how to rank the importance of hiring criteria relevant to the business challenge they are hiring for, encouraging that A-player to move for professional growth. They realize that the secret to attracting and retaining the best talent is give them interesting, challenging, and marketable work, while cultivating a culture of measured risk, collaborative teams, and appreciative recognition. This may also be a lost art where only those progressive organizations who practice it, will thrive.
How do you identify a Headhunter?
What is the true value of engaging a headhunter for your critical talent need?
They either know, or efficiently ask the right questions to understand your unique business.
They possess market intelligence in their recruiting domain superior to client or candidate.
They focus first on the business challenge being hiring for, before the profile to hire.
They help you define the job with just the right balance of ingredients to deliver your business solution while attracting the best available talent to do it.
They don't fish in Job Board or Resume Databases. By relationship recruiting with original research, they will differentiate, not duplicate your own recruiting effort.
You will be exposed to a unique and passive candidate pool who is not answering advertisements or job postings.
They will price the talent to fit your budget and the challenge, or they won't accept the assignment. Time is their most valuable commodity, engaging when your urgency meets what the market will bear.
A significant list of testimonials (best when unsolicited) from those who have benefited from their services. Results are the source of testimonials and the catalyst for attracting passive candidates.
Repeated business because they can select who they engage with.
Certified by their professional association and current in local and federal employment law.
On this Labor Day weekend I extend over a quarter century of relationship gratitude, for learning how to be a proud headhunter, and for the loyal business that flows from it.

I have just one month left before we move, so I am busy trying to organize, pack, and still find time to crank out a few great recipes as often as possible. Although I presently do not have as much time as usual to spend in the kitchen, I still do my best to prepare healthy, delicious meals every day. We have been working hard to eat mostly plant-based meals during the week, but we do enjoy seafood on the weekends. When preparing vegetables, I like to cook up a large portion so that we can enjoy the leftovers for light lunches. This recipe is one I make often because it is so quick and easy, and always tastes delicious. I may vary the ingredients depending on what I have on hand, but this medley of mushrooms, cauliflower, and ripe cherry tomatoes is my favorite combination.
For the best results, I suggest that you use Cremini or Baby Bella mushrooms. Both of these varieties have more flavor than basic button mushrooms, but white button mushrooms will do if you have no other options. I like to use fresh thyme along with dried oregano to season these vegetables, and then I top the roasted vegetables with fresh parsley just before serving. These vegetables are a great side dish to serve with grilled or roasted meat and poultry, though we enjoy them on their own. You can serve these vegetables warm from the oven or at room temperature.
Mushrooms, cauliflower, and tomatoes are roasted together in this earthy veggie combo.
In a large bowl, add the mushrooms, cauliflower, and tomatoes.
Drizzle with the olive oil, sprinkle with the seasonings and toss to coat.
Spread the vegetables onto a foil lined large baking sheet, and roast about 25 minutes or until lightly browned and tender when pricked with a knife.
Arrange the vegetables on a platter and sprinkle with the chopped parsley.
Beautiful idea ! Leftovers,warmed up, will make an excellent lunch on Monday, at the office ! Thank you !
Wow! In this recipe, you have some healthy ingredients. We can get enough calories from Mushrooms and Cauliflower. Thanks for sharing!

Conrad Black: Trudeau has failed. Voters should toss him out
This government has such a weak record, it has tried to sell its oppressive political correctness as a beatific aura that is itself a distinguished national achievement
Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau listens to questions during a press conference following the leaders debate in Gatineau, Que., on Oct. 7, 2019Dave Chan/AFP/Getty Images
If Stephen Harper had retired five years ago, as many advised, he would be regarded as one of the country's outstanding prime ministers and would have been spared the ultimate defeat that has needlessly ended the careers of many other leaders, including such distinguished statesmen as Laurier, St. Laurent, Adenauer, de Gaulle, Thatcher and Helmut Kohl. But he went for a fourth straight election without some of his best ministers, including the late Jim Flaherty, John Baird and Peter MacKay, was more dictatorial than ever, conducted a completely incompetent campaign based on women's headgear in public places and a conjured threat of mass migration from the Middle East, and was sent to the showers.
As I wrote here in the past two weeks, for four years we have had image government from his successor; pandering to voting sub-groups in a politically atomized country. All emphasis has been on unlimited pursuit of a pristine environment and the manipulation of gender issues and native policy. The government has declared the objective of "phasing out" fossil fuels (Alberta's), with no regard to the resulting impoverishment of that province, and with the unnecessary continuation of Canada as an oil-importing country. The Canadian environment is not deteriorating, and climate alarm is being propagated for discreditable motives and with undesirable consequences.
Stay informed this election (and beyond) with First Reading, the political newsletter that makes sense of it all. We're breaking the news, defining the issues and analyzing what matters. Sign up here.
Gender is a political red herring, as there is not a significant number of Canadians who harbour prejudices against people on the basis of sex or sexual orientation, and apart from reinforcing that freedom, the Trudeau government has massively overstressed these issues, which are not contentious, productive or even relevant. Native peoples' questions have been focused on as part of the hunt for abuses to oppose, but no discernible material progress has been made to resolve their many problems. What has occurred is an improvement on the Harper policy of building more prisons to house native offenders, but that is damning with the faintest of praise. The lively diversion of marijuana legalization has been a fiasco because those licensed to produce and sell are constrained by rules that make it impossible for them to compete with the illegal providers.
Capital flows out of Canada are catastrophically large, a grim and inescapable omen for the near future, as money votes with its feet over where it chooses to generate economic growth — the only possible source of increased prosperity. Unemployment is low because of the coattails of the Trump economic boom and an expanding public sector (paid for with deficit-spending).

Trudeau's father was re-elected because of a comprehensive plan to defeat Quebec separatism and some significant social reforms. Brian Mulroney was re-elected advocating free trade with the United States and reduced income tax with revenue replaced by a Goods and Service Tax, a partially voluntary tax system. Jean Chrétien faced an opposition so divided that he was under no threat of defeat, apart from within his own party (which evicted him eventually), but he and Stephen Harper governed prudently, if not with great imagination, and were rewarded at the polls for being sensible.
This government has such a weak record, it has tried to sell its oppressive political correctness as a beatific aura that is itself a distinguished national achievement. This is what made the blackface incidents so embarrassing. It has resorted to an increasingly irritating assault on the Conservatives as primitive, harsh, stingy and un-Canadian. The Liberals have tried to frighten the country with the spectre of a bigoted and reactionary Tory regime, greasing the palms of the rich, trampling over the working and middle-income people, and imposing an anti-abortion regression into Victorian hypocrisy, while the environment is handed over to coal-belching factories emitting diluvian inundations of effluent. This is so fatuous a caricature, Liberal advertising is reduced to trying to induce the country to forget these four wasted years by invoking Harper's stolid personality and hammering Ontario's Progressive Conservative Premier Doug Ford like a piñata as he cleans up after four terms of horrifying Liberal incompetence.
The Liberals have tried to frighten the country with the spectre of a bigoted and reactionary Tory regime
The Liberals' complacency has caught up with them in Quebec. They have won the federal elections in Quebec over the Conservatives since the rise of Laurier 123 years ago, except for the two elections of Conservative Quebecer Brian Mulroney, and Quebec premier Maurice Duplessis' delivery of 50 Quebec MPs to the Progressive Conservatives under John Diefenbaker in 1958 (in revenge for the federal Liberals' successful intervention against him in the 1939 provincial election). But Quebec will only give practically its entire block of MPs to a federal Liberal leader whom the province respects to represent it in the world: Laurier, Ernest Lapointe as Mackenzie King's virtual co-premier, Louis St. Laurent, Pierre Trudeau. It never gave heavy support to Jean Chrétien, and it is becoming clear that it will not give an unambiguous endorsement to Justin Trudeau. In these circumstances, the separatist Bloc Québécois (an absurd party in a federal election but potentially important), appears to be cutting seriously into the Liberal Quebec vote, as Réal Couette's Creditistes did in the Sixties, and Jack Layton's NDP did in 2011. The Bloc may take enough Quebec MPs to make the Conservatives the largest party overall and enable them to form a government and enact at least some of the sensible program they have presented as the only plausible alternative to Liberal flimflam. It is indicative of the panic in Liberal headquarters that they solicited and received the very inappropriate endorsement of former U.S. president Barack Obama (another suave image but unsuccessful leader, and a Canadian election is no business of his).
The most important factor to consider before voting, which the government has desperately ignored, is its own conduct
The most important factor to consider before voting, which the government has desperately ignored, is its own conduct. This regime has banned Liberal candidates of pro-life views even if they believe in the right to an abortion. (This is the personal view of Andrew Scheer.) They made pro-abortion views a pre-condition to some categories of government-sponsored summer employment. The prime minister lied to Canadians over the SNC-Lavalin affair and was excoriated by the non-partisan ethics commissioner Mario Dion (traditionally a cause of ineligibility to continue in office). And this government falsely prosecuted the former vice chief of the defence staff, Vice-Admiral Mark Norman, over a policy difference. It is the time-honoured practice to retire or move senior military personnel with whom the government has a deep disagreement. It is unheard-of in this country to prosecute such a person for a crime the government had no reason to believe was committed, and to attempt to prevail by denying the defendant the means assured to members of the military to pay for proper counsel pending adjudication. It was the most disgraceful single abuse of power by the federal government at least since Diefenbaker falsely implied that the governor of the Bank of Canada, James E. Coyne, had wrongfully increased his pension (in 1959).
Vice-Admiral Mark Norman and his lawyer, Marie Henein, speak with the media on May 8, 2019, after Crown prosecutors dropped a breach of trust case against him. Errol McGihon/Postmedia News
A government that would reject candidates and refuse to hire summer job applicants because of their conscientious views of moral issues, lie to the public and deliberately level false criminal charges against a distinguished senior naval officer over policy matters, should not be re-elected. The Liberals had a clear mandate in 2015 and did not fulfill it. "They have been weighed in the balance and they have been found wanting." It's time for regime change.

Welcome to the school health webpage. There are some helpful links located on the right hand side of the page with information that may be useful to you.
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at any time. Also if you have any questions regarding school health policies please feel free to contact me at any time.
We want to keep our students as healthy as possible, but also in school on a regular basis.
How should I deal with communicable diseases?
What do I need to know about Enterovirus D-68?

John's Horror Corner: Silent Night, Deadly Night part 2 (1987), a Christmas horror sequel that is both lazy and clever.

by John Leavengood
MY CALL: The sequel of the "then controversial" cult classic, this story continues and replays the highlights of its predecessor to form the death scene meat and potatoes of the movie. MOVIES LIKE Silent Night, Deadly Night part 2: Normally I'd direct folks to the original: Silent Night Deadly Night (1984). But since all the kills and their build-up from the original are literally shown again in this, there's little point.
The follow-up to a bonkers 80s B-movie cult classic, this sequel opens with strong scoring and a tense introduction to Ricky (Eric Freeman) in a psychiatric hospital on Christmas Eve. Now grown up after living through his older brother's killing spree (i.e., Billy from part 1), Ricky has become a killer just like Billy.
As the narrator to our story, Ricky recounts his brother's vile deeds to his psychiatrist. As if justifying his murderous destiny, Ricky recalls the murder and sexual assault of his parents by a man in a Santa suit; their troubled upbringing in an orphanage run by Mother Superior (Lilyan Chauvin; Predator 2, Pumpkinhead 2, Silent Night Deadly Night); Billy's departure from the nunnery and job at the toy store when he turned eighteen; and absolutely everyone Billy killed in 1984. Entire scenes of footage are generously borrowed from part 1. As a result, all the kills from the first half of this movie are from this stock footage. Like really, every kill from Silent Night Deadly Night (1984); about half of this sequel is in fact the more exciting half of part 1.
So really, this sequel doesn't even begin to hold its own until about minute 40. But fret not, because at least one "new" kill (the umbrella death scene) is rather spectacular for a lower budget kill. And while I enjoyed the jumper cable death as well, the better deaths in this movie were from the previous film. It makes it hard to judge this movie on its own unless it was viewed in lieu of its predecessor. I guess we do still get Ricky killing some folks in a Santa suit (for some of new death scenes). But it's just not enough for me care… even a little. The Santa suit shenanigans feel phoned-in and short-lived.
But let's give director Lee Harry (Street Soldiers) and his cast a little credit. Ricky's storytelling scenes were well-acted and aptly written. In fact, the acting in this felt rather superior to anything from part 1 (except of course, for the most talented scream queen Linnea Quigley; The Return of the Living Dead, Night of the Demons, A Nightmare on Elm Street 4, Creepozoids). It seems that someone had a great script idea, but so little money to fund the film that utilizing the previous was the only way to make it work. So as lazy as the scene-stealing tactic initially feels, maybe this was their clever way of making it happen. At least they managed to cast the lovely Elizabeth Kaitan (Friday the 13th part VII, Nightwish, Necromancer), who is something of a bad movie starlet.
Despite a couple entertaining kills, this movie is basically a cheap cash-grab throwaway riding the coattails of the best parts of its maker. This would best be viewed by horror fans who actually missed the original. For that demographic, this would probably be quite satisfying.

The greatest sprinter of all time retired from the track after the 2017 World Championships in August. He won nine Olympic gold medals (one medal was vacated when his Jamaican relay mate failed a drug test). Bolt is a marketing juggernaut with more than a dozen sponsors. Most deals have continued in retirement. His biggest deal is with Puma, which pays Bolt more than $10 million annually. Bolt opened his third Track & Records restaurant in Jamaica this year. He has a contract in place for 10-15 restaurants in the U.K. with the flagship one to open in 2018.
Tennis players dominate the best-paid female athletes, with eight of the top 10 spots. Serena Williams reigns supreme at $27 million, more than twice as much as any other woman, while Maria Sharapova falls outside the top 10.
The top-earning athletes hail from 21 countries and compete in 11 sports with Americans (63) and basketball players (32) the most prevalent. Over the last 12 months, the top 100 banked a cumulative $3.11 billion with 29% derived from endorsements.

DOASKDOTELL BOOK REVIEWs of Tomkiel's Social Security Handbook; Stein and DeMuth: Yes, You Can Still Retire Comfortably! ; Damp: The Book of U.S. Government Jobs; Lynch: But I Don't Want Eldercare
Author (or Editor): Stanley A. Tomkiel, III
Title: The Social Security Handbook (Version 4)
Fiction? N
Publisher: SphinxLegal (Chicago)
Physical description: paper, 342 pgs, indexed
Relevance to DOASKDOTELL: social security, government benefits, "socialism"
This book is intended to help any person intending to apply for social security retirement or disability benefits. (It has a brief section on Supplementary Security Income, SSI, which is a tax-funded welfare program administered by SSA but not funded by FICA taxes). It is well laid out in chapters and sections, although at first glance the reader may think that the book section numbers correspond to SSA rules. Apparently do not.
The most "controversial" area of the book deals with the earnings limits for persons who start SSA benefits between age 62 (the earliest possible age) and full retirement age, which increases with birthdate. (For me, born in 1943, it will be 66.)
The benefit is reduced by an actuarial formula (which Tomkiel explains in detail) intended to reflect the longer payout period with the same expected value of benefits. One would ask, then, why are benefits reduced if your earnings go over a certain amount for a year? If you put in the contributions, why aren't they yours?
That sounds like an ideological question. President Bush would like it to work that way, with privatization. But Tomkiel stays with how the system works now. The basic concept is that the retirement program is viewed as a kind of unemployment "insurance." Between ages 62 and FRA, public policy recognizes that a senior will have a harder time working, but it would like him or her to have an incentive to practice good faith in work attempts. Remember that when Social Security was invented, it was viewed as a pseudo-welfare program, where working people support the aged. The problem is, then, demographics, as the pool of beneficiaries increases and workers, relatively speaking, is smaller.
There are some particular problems and ambiguities with self-employment. Income from self-employment is counted against limits when it is paid. But a beneficiary younger than FRA is not allowed to "hide" compensation by shifting it to family members, hiding it as investment income, or asking clients to postpone payment. A self-employed retiree should not start offering services "for free" just to stay within limits. SSA is especially picky with the issue of business ownership, particularly when the business is a partnership or corporation. (Technically, any self-employment endeavor would at least be a proprietorship.)
Tomkiel explains the concept of "grace year" and non-work month, which is not clear on the SSA website. A non-work month is a month during the grace year where the recipient earns less than a set maximum (so he can get paid for that month) and stays within the 15-45 hour self-employment rule. (It is not necessarily a month with no work.)
Tomkiel does list the kinds of income that do not count against limits. He adds "hobby" income which the SSA simply lists as "other" on its site. (The IRS describes a "hobby" as ordinary income unless the taxpayer takes business deductions for the hobby and can show an accounting profit for three out of five years—I don't seen that Tomkiel mentions that point explicitly. Any self-employment income including "hobby" income is subject to self-employment FICA tax if it generates more than $400 in income in a year.) I don't see that Tomkiel mentions IRA withdrawals (after age 59-1/2 there is no penalty but they are usually taxed by the IRS as ordinary income) as a non-work income item; The SSA website definitely does mention this.
There is a theoretical issue for writers who self-publish and set up at least a proprietorship in order to get ISBN numbers from Books in Print (or similar numbers for magazines or movie DVD's or for songs). I don't see much about this in the literature or in Tomkien's book. It seems to me that the income from this would be subject to earnings limits in the same way as self-employment. If the income level is very small before the person starts benefits and if the benefits claim is largely based on FICA-covered earnings from conventional employment over the years, I do not believe that this presents problems as long as no money is "laundered." A writer in such a position is, however, announcing publicly that he or she would probably like to work again and earn more, which might in the future exceed earnings limits. He or she should keep careful records of time spent and funds received even for a very small business activity. It does seem to me that it is acceptable for the below 62 retiree to re-enter the workforce with a new career or with self-employment (freelance writing, renovating property for resale, cooking or gardening, sports, leisure businesses, any activities that often attract seniors).
There is not enough attention to the issue of senior employment, even with the efforts of the AARP. Sometimes "retired" seniors, because of a combination of varied experiences, may suddenly be approached by an employer or company that would need someone who can connect the dots among normally unrelated but specific activities, because of sudden changes in the legal, technological, political or international climate.
Tomkiel does give a lot of details about complex family situations involving spouses, widow(er)s, dependent children, eligibility on more that one account, disability, and family maximums, and these do not apply to me personally. From all that I see, however, it seems always true that every worker has his or her own eligibility first.

Ben Stein and Phil DeMuth. Yes, You Can Still Retire Comfortably! The Baby Boom Retirement Crisis and How to Beat It. Carlsbad, CA, New Beginnings Press, 2007. Paper, 220 pages, indexed. ISBN 1-4019-0318-5. 11 Chapters. The authors start out with 21 basic rules, and these include saving, home ownership, and getting and staying married. In time, they drop much concern with family values as such (although the tone of the book is certainly conservative) and give increasingly detailed advice on how to build and maintain retirement nest eggs. One of the biggest points is to save more than others do (if everyone did, the strategy wouldn't work). The authors talk askance about not only the current situation with social security and Medicare but the neo-conservative plans to privatize it. They think real cuts and means testing are likely eventually. They also talk about living abroad in retirement, which may be much more feasible and desirable than many people realize, although the falling dollar raises questions about that. The book appears to have been written before the severity of the current subprime mortgage crisis was appreciated. It's interesting to me that the authors don't mention filial responsibility laws (an approaching political time bomb on the social issues side) and only trivial mention of long term care insurance.

Dennis V. Damp. The Book of U.S. Government Jobs: Where They Are, What's Available, & How to Get One. 1986-2008. Brookhaven Press. ISBN 0-943641-26-8. Paper, 338 pages, 12 chapters.. A handbook, with full-sized pages. The most useful section is about the KSA's (or KSAO's), "Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities". Blogger.
Terry Lynch. But I Don't Want Eldercare: Helping Your Parents Stay As Strong As They Can As Long As They Can. Denver: Legal Center for People With Disabilities and Older People. 2008. ISBN 978-0-9970179-6-6 308 pages, paper. Although the title of the book suggests "optimism" in encouraging seniors to be as independent as possible, most of it is very sobering as to the social demands on "adult child" caregivers. Blogger.

Spider-man 4 Release Date, Spoilers: Next Marvel Movie Following No Way House
It really is a bizarre scenario but genuinely practically nothing has felt more random than this El Muerto announcement with Negative Bunny. This is the heavy weight that he casts off as he leaps to his feet, for the reason that yeah, all that shitty stuff is worth it. In carrying out what's suitable for the sake of others, in recognizing when a dream is selfish. Although it is ranked the lowest on this list of any principal MCU Spider-Man film, Far From Property is each and every bit the breezy blockbuster it demands to be. Of the 3 MCU entries, it most likely best shoulders the weight of enmeshing itself in the grander MCU plan, letting Peter genuinely forge a new identity for himself as each a hero and a teen. Leah Campano is an assistant editor at Seventeen, exactly where she covers pop culture, entertainment news, health, and politics.
The third chapter in this iteration of Spider-Man was originally slated for an Australian cinema release date of December 26, 2021. If you'd like to catch up on the earlier Spidey films before No Way House, here's a guide to their streaming locations. At Lifehacker, we independently choose and write about stuff we really like and feel you will like too. We have affiliate and advertising partnerships, which indicates we could collect a share of sales or other compensation from the hyperlinks on this page. BTW – prices are precise and items in stock at the time of posting. Holland reportedly made appeals to both Disney CEO Bob Iger and Sony film chairman Tom Rothman to retain the deal alive, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Following two dismal years for the theatrical small business, Spider-Man has returned to alter the guidelines of the game. Back in 2002, the 1st Spider-Man film set an all-time record by opening with $114.eight million—becoming the initial film to best $100 million at the box workplace in a single weekend. That was arguably the beginning of the modern day era at the box workplace. For the initial time in the cinematic history of Spider-Man, our friendly neighbourhood hero's identity is revealed, bringing his Super Hero responsibilities into conflict with his normal life and placing these he cares about most at threat. This is a film mainly about teaching you that you cannot normally root for the hero, simply because often they're just a negative individual. And for that moral it is a single of the most intriguing superhero movies ever.
Unknown to Spider-Man, Medical doctor Octopus was properly prepared for the fight and the Sinister Six subdue the Avengers. Doc Ock is about to kill Spider-Man, but Silver Sable comes to the rescue. She saves Peter and the Black Widow, and they set off to Octavius' manufacturing plants. Doc Ock asked the nations to capture Spider-Man and he also called on numerous villains to take down Spider-Man. Parker knows that he can not cease Otto alone, so he asks other heroes to destroys Ock's facilities. When Spider-Man, Black Widow, and Silver Sable attain the most important base in Romania, Doctor Octopus activates his satellites, and each region that faces the sun explodes.
In New York City, the Midtown College of Science and Technologies completes its year, which was restarted to accommodate the students who previously disintegrated 5 years earlier as a result of Thanos' actions. They had reappeared un-aged, thanks to the actions of the Avengers. The college organizes a two-week summer time field trip to Europe, where Peter Parker—who is nonetheless mourning the death of his mentor Tony Stark—plans to reveal to classmate MJ his attraction to her.
The departure from preceding Spider-Man movies like Sam Raimi's Spider-Man and Marc Webb's The Astounding Spider-Man was an exciting and favorable decision for Marvel fans. The origin story of a spider-bite victim turned superhero is somewhat well-identified to even the most casual Spidey fan but it appears that Marvel Studios will explore the future Avenger's backstory just after all. In his most daring adventure yet, Peter Parker and Physician Strange accidentally tear open Multiverse doorways, bringing franchise-favourite villains like Medical professional Octopus, Green Goblin, and Electro into the fray. This may possibly be the most ambitious Spider-Man movie, but it won't be the final time we see Tom Holland in the skin-tight suit, as the British star might seem inthree much more films. The Spider-Man film franchise began with Tobey Maguire in 2002, starring inSpider-Manfrom Sam Raimi.
Spidey and the Vulture engaged in some assault-fire back and forth, until the Vulture's unstable weapon (covered with Spidey's taser webbing) malfunctioned, misfired, and neatly sliced the ferry into two halves. Meanwhile, Schultz jumped off the ship and grabbed onto the Vulture's leg as he flew off and retreated. To temporarily repair the ferry, Spidey flew among the gaping split in the ship and attempted to hold it with each other with webbing.
When his beloved uncle is savagely murdered in the course of a robbery, young Peter vows to use his powers to avenge his death. Deeming himself "Spider-Man ," he sets about ridding the streets of crime, bringing him into conflict with malevolent super-villain "Green Goblin." The film made its Blu-ray debut in 2007 as portion of the Spider-Man Trilogy. Just 3 years later, it was released as a separate Blu-ray on November 16, 2010. Spider-Man was also included in the Spider-Man Legacy Collection, which involves 5 Spider-Man films in a 4K UHD Blu-ray collection, which was released on October 17, 2017. Hugh Jackman, who starred as Logan / Wolverine in the X-Males film series, stated in September 2013 that he was approached to seem as Wolverine in the film in either a gag or just for a cameo look.
Spider-Man possesses his father's automatic camera which zones in on the spider symbol on Spider-Man's chest. He would location the camera in a particular spot and springs into action in front of it, allowing him to take photos of himself. As Spider-Man he makes use of the camera to capture his heroic exploits to then sell the photographs to the Daily Bugle.

Space Tub Kick Start - Castle Games Inc.
Which means exactly what you think it means. We're not 100% sure that we want Space Tub to be our first Kickstarter campaign, but it's looking more and more likely. More details will come in the next few weeks, but look for the kick off video in early (January) 2014.
Yes we'd like to have it off to print by GAMA season.
New love coming to the Space Tub page soon.

'We the people of India' are the first words of the Constitution.
The concept of civil society is an interesting one. Always been a part of liberal democratic theories, they conceive civil society as an independent sphere but one protected by the state. Individuals with rights are free to pursue their private interests in free association with others. This definition tends towards a more free market economy within which civil society functions. Liberals like J.S.Mill and Alexis De Tocqueville conceived civil society as a domain of social associations to check excesses of the state. Concerned with the growing power of the state, they believed that without active social associations, even democracies could turn authoritarian. The Marxian view delimits the role of civil society, whereas Hegels concerns about civil society being immoral if left to fend for itself meant that civil society had to be institutionalized through the state. Upon exploring these theoretical views, in very simple terms, civil society "is a public space between the state, the market and citizens in which people can debate and take action". It derives its power from the interplay of notions of citizenship and civil rights.
Contemporary civil society in India has its roots extending to the ancient and medieval history of India. It confirms that we had civil society beginning in the Vedic period. Vedic hymns have described democratic norms of society in the form of people's assemblies like vidath, sabha and samiti. Till date, gram panchayats and chaupals influence village life. Not very long ago, the coming together of Indigo planters in Chamaparan to revolt against the indigo laws of the British was a historic moment for civil society. Lawyers and academicians across India, supported the indigo planters. Women in the anti-arrack movement in Tamil Nadu rose to their alcoholic-abusive husbands who consumed cheap alcohol produced by the state. In Rajasthan and Uttarakhand, people became environmentalists to protect the resources that had sustained their communities since time immemorial. Thus, people have been active in India in raising their voices, much before we even debated the concept of 'civil society', per se.
Sometime civil society cannot always be seen as distinct from the state, so it is not necessary that social groups will always be opposed to the state. In many instances, they may support the state in bringing about social transformation and work amicably in various sectors of civil life. Civil society also does not require a certain regime type for it to thrive. It does not need only a liberal democracy to survive. The relationship between civil society and market too, in India has been a somewhat tumultuous one. Faced with several land acquisitions controversies, the need of the hour has been to include civil society in market-based land reforms.
In the late 1960s, the decline of the Congress, the Emergency imposed by PM Indira Gandhi in1975, the oil crisis in 1979 and resultant global recession, all came together to produce a civil society against an unresponsive state where people had comparatively better knowledge of its civil liberties and political activism. As poverty, illiteracy and poor health situations prevailed, social struggles arose within the country. Social movements such as the Narmada Bachao Andolan (NBA), Anti-arrack movement in the South of India and the environmental movement of Chipko mobilized certain sections of society. They cannot be considered as independent of civil society for it is when members of society come together to unite for a certain cause, is when social movements are born. The nucleus of these movements remains the people armed with their civil rights.
For many years, our economy remained dependent on state-led growth and after a major fiscal crisis in 1991 Western capitalism was embraced. Two decades later, irrespective of the party holding power, capitalism became entrenched in public policy. The government has since then progressively downplayed social welfare and instead focused on promoting economic growth. This has only accelerated large-scale transfer of public lands and resources to private parties. Such policies have been justified because they are able supposed to attract greater investment and thereby increase economic efficiency. But in many cases, the policies are enacted without regard to the basic rights of a large number of people who were live on land that is auctioned off. And in many instances, the moves break the country's own laws. The result has been the built-up of a dangerous nexus between politicians and industrialists and a large peasant group that feels neglected and cheated.
One can say that the rise of civil society is a result of violation democratic rights on the one hand, and on the other, a response to a state that is corrupt and fostering nepotism. Though not enforceable by law, but what the state endeavours to provide are the Directive Principles of State Policy – 'The State shall endeavour to secure, by suitable legislation or economic organisation or in any other way, to all workers, agricultural, industrial or otherwise, work, a living wage, conditions of work ensuring a decent standard of life and full enjoyment…' (Bakshi, 2010)– It is the duty of the state to ensure through legislations that these principles are effectively enacted but means to achieve these have largely failed. In the initial years post-independence, there was high level of dependency of the people on the state for employment, livelihoods, hosuing, welfare activities, food security, permits and quotas for trade and agricultural developemtn etc. But this dependency was not a fulfilling activity for the people. Unemployment till date is very high, primary agriculture – the mainstay of the economy is given negligibe importance; many sections of society and states till date feel neglected from political discourse and developmental agendas like The North-East and states like J&K.
Civil society has many functions. It can design strategies for alternative ways to an all-encompassing development, serve as a service provider through community organizations and national NGOs, and play the role of a watchdog to ensure fulfilment of governmental commitments. But in India, like in most developing countries these roles are taking being enacted gradually, as governments continue to dominate decision-making processes. An active civil society ensures accountability of the State in different spheres. The RTI is a good example, where it replaced the Official Secrets Act. With the Mazdoor Kisan Shakti Sanghatan (MKSS's) struggle for Right to Information, it has been proved that the cries for reform in the system from even the most disadvantaged people in society, can lead to a powerful change. Now, with access to information, civil society has been, to large extent, able to monitor the functioning of the law and order machinery. Also, as opposed to the power of the state, civil society has given voice to the marginalized and voiceless communities so they may represent their interests in a 'space'.
This civil society has its roots in the debate as to 'what' constitutes civil society. This identification has particularly remained problematic. The concept of civil society pinpoints and values associational life – interest groups, professional and other associations, voluntary agencies, grassroots organizations, social movements and all other social orders- because it brings people together in networks and shared concerns. It can take the form of a movement that supports environmental, political and economic causes; and according to Tocqueville it can be in the form of unions such as trade unions, railway unions; parties, churches, public opinion, literary and scientific societies and professional or recreational groups (Chandhoke, 2003)and it can even simply exist as neighbourhood Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs). It is precisely because civil society is so diffused, it is difficult to define it in a very one-size-fit-all description.
A Google search on 'civil society' shows the definition and legitimacy provided by the World Bank, which uses the term CSO as almost synonymous with NGO (non-governmental organisation). Various terms have been attached to civil associations – from Voluntary Organizations (VOs) to Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) and now, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), (Kishwar, 2011) .While the role of CSOs cannot be negated, it must be strictly differentiated from the term 'civil society'.
There seems to a rediscovery of civil society today. The Anna-led anti-corruption movement has brought to the forefront some interesting points on civil society in India. Firstly, there is a presence of strong agenda that now dominates mainstream political discourse. The public sector is riddled with red-tapism, bribery, misuse of public money for private good and lack of accountability of the government. The recent decision of the courts (Balwa, 2011) to deny bail to eight of the accused in the 2G spectrum scam case in India highlights the fact that the general atmosphere is one of fighting corruption and weeding it out from its roots. Many scams involving billions have been unearthed in the last two years. Among them are the Adarsh Housing scam, the 2G Spectrum scam and the Commonwealth Games scandal. In all these, misappropriation of public funds has caught the eye of many who now demand an overhaul in the system. Secondly, democracy and civic participation has seen an interesting role play in the IAC movement. People from all walks of life – students, professionals, academicians, elderly, retired armed forces personnel poured out at Jantar Mantar and India Gate in the days surrounding Anna's fasting.
In a different context of environmentalism, civic participation has seen a rise in India. Communities are fighting for their resources and voicing their concerns and agitations, which is being pursued by the Indian media. Democracy is being sustained through the active involvement of citizens engaged in their communities and helping to determine their own future.
India, through such instances of civil activism, is also contributing its share to 'Global civil society'. The Arab Spring in the Middle-East and Occupy-Wall-Street in the US, the anti-corruption wave in India, protests in Kashmir over the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA), have one thing in common – people against unfair practices and systems. A ripple effect can be seen in many countries influenced by a new wave of activism. One of the main reasons for such an effect is the universalism of the challenges faced by people from the states and markets. With the advent of the Internet technologies, digital mobilisation, social networking and relatively cheap air travel there is an enhanced interconnectedness between civil society campaigns and movements across the world. Campaigns against the WTO regime and for fair trade have demonstrated the power of citizens globally, beyond the state and market. Domestic civil activism is deciding international agendas at G20, World Trade Organization, UN Security Council, UN General Assembly, among others.
Civil society today is also plagued with challenges, but ones that can and must be overcome.
A hyper-active civil society: But an over-active civil society must also be resisted. While it is important to have a strong civil society, but a civil society that is becomes too strong actually tend to become a state-like entity. Democratic institutions and their functioning would be hampered and the supremacy of the parliament questioned – just like in the Anna-led corruption movement. As critics point out, any change must be brought from within the system. Hence, Anna should be on the panel and negotiate rather than merely ordering the state about what is to be done.
United we stand, divided we fall? – The problem of fragmentation: Though civil society claims that more issues unite them, than that dividing them, in reality civil society is hopelessly fragmented. There is little solidarity across boundaries. Those working at the grassroots level will not have any inkling as to what goes on in the corridors of powerful lobbies that might affect them. There is utter disconnection within the networks of CSOs and NGOs, for many of whom profit remains the primary motive. ). In our diverse society, caste and religious groups also remain divisive, enabling their political mobilization and use for unethical political agendas.The result is a civil society that is fragmented and amorphous, not united and thereby weak – without a single goal or aim.
But being skeptical does not help. In an age where many societies are struggling to sustain democracy, India is thriving on a robust democratic life. Civil society has proven itself to be diverse, responsive at the same time a force to understand and learn from when things go wrong in the 'Third space'.
There is a vital need to look beyond the present and to critically think about the long-term sustainability of civil society. Civil society will always be threatened by certain forces. Its space will always be challenged. We need to ensure that we continue to develop and learn important lessons from the events that take place in the realm of society.

Marshals capture
1 escaped inmate
It's one down, four to go for authorities tracking federal fugitives from a South Texas jail.
According to a statement from the U.S. Marshals Service, Manuel de la Fuente was captured at a house in Laredo without incident about 3 a.m. Monday. He was confined to the Webb County Jail in Laredo pending a court appearance on an escape charge.
The Marshals Service is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the capture of each of the four remaining fugitives.
The five inmates escaped Aug. 6 from the privately operated Frio County Jail in Pearsall, 96 miles northeast of Laredo, the Marshals Service said.
Device quickly IDs
chemical threats
City officials say new military-grade technology could help them respond to a chemical threat.
A hand-held detector called ChemSentry is designed to identify chemical agents in seconds and tell emergency officials how deadly they are.
"We would need to know immediately what we are dealing with, whether it's a nerve or a blood or a blister agent," Battalion Chief Wendell Lancaster told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in Monday's editions. "This should tell us in 20 to 25 seconds."
Fort Worth and Bedford were two of the first cities this summer to buy the detectors, which were developed by a Defense Department contractor in Austin.

Q: Numpy array in panda dataframe from json I have a JSON file containing properties of some mathematical objects (Calabi-Yau manifolds). These objects are defined by a matrix and a vector, and two additional properties I am storing are the matrix size (such that it does not need to be computed again) and the Euler number of the manifold (some integer). In total there are roughly 1 million entries, the biggest matrix is 16 x 20.
I would like to convert the matrix and vectors to numpy arrays. Hence I was wondering if it is possible to do it directly when loading from json, or at least how to convert afterwards. The reason for converting is that I will need in any case some functions from numpy later, but I also hope (especially if the conversion is done on loading) that it will speed up my code: for the moment loading the complete dataset takes roughly 90 seconds (a previous loading using json module required only 20 s; I will open another thread on this question if using numpy does not improve).
Here is a minimal working code:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
json = '''
{"1":{"euler":2610,"matrix":[[6]],"size":[1,1],"vec":[5]},
"2":{"euler":2190,"matrix":[[2,5]],"size":[1,2],"vec":[6]},
"4":{"euler":1632,"matrix":[[2,2,4]],"size":[1,3],"vec":[7]},
"6":{"euler":1152,"matrix":[[2,2,2,3]],"size":[1,4],"vec":[8]},
"7":{"euler":960,"matrix":[[2,2,2,2,2]],"size":[1,5],"vec":[9]},
"8":{"euler":2160,"matrix":[[2],[5]],"size":[2,1],"vec":[1,4]},
"9":{"euler":1836,"matrix":[[0,2],[2,4]],"size":[2,2],"vec":[1,5]}}
'''
data = pd.read_json(json, orient="index")
data.sort_index(inplace=True)
My first guess was to use the numpy argument, but it fails with an error:
>>> data = pd.read_json(json, orient="index", numpy=True)
ValueError: cannot reshape array of size 51 into shape (7,4,2,2)
Then I have tried giving the dtype argument but it does not look like changing anything (my hope was that by using a numpy type it would convert the list to an array):
>>> dtype = {"euler": np.int16, "matrix": np.int8, "vector": np.int8,
... "size": np.int8, "number": np.int32}
>>> data = pd.read_json(json, orient="index", dtype=dtype)
>>> type(type(data["matrix"][1]))
list
For the conversion I was wondering if there is a more subtle (and perhaps more efficient) way than brutal conversion:
data["matrix"] = data["matrix"].apply(lambda x: np.array(x, dtype=np.int8))

Seattle quarterback has final say in daylong shootout with Texans rookie quarterback Deshaun Watson
Of all that happened during one of the more amazing Sundays in Seahawks history — a team-record 452 passing yards by Russell Wilson, four lead changes in the final 9:09, Wilson's 23rd fourth-quarter or overtime comeback victory in 99 career games — maybe the most jaw-dropping moment occurred afterward when Richard Sherman met the media.
"Shoot, they won the game for us,'' Sherman said of the Seahawks' offense after a wild 41-38 victory over the Houston Texans. "They bailed us out. They bailed us out in a big way.''
And when did anyone ever figure any Seattle defender would say that about the Seahawks' offense this season?

It was only a few weeks ago when some wondered if the Seattle defense might launch into a full-fledged rebellion at some point over having to carry the offense week after week after week.
But on this day, when a defense that came in giving up the fewest points in the NFL allowed precocious Houston rookie Deshaun Watson to throw for 402 yards and four touchdowns, allowed DeAndre Hopkins 224 receiving yards — the second-most of any Seattle opponent in team history — and also allowed the Texans five drives of 71 yards or longer, it was the oft-maligned Seattle offense that did the heavy lifting.
"Today the defense really needed the offense,'' said coach Pete Carroll. "And we've been in a lot of games on the other side of it and they all know it.''
It was a day when every time the defense faltered — "It was not one of our better games in the history of us being here,'' Sherman said frankly — the offense responded in a way few might have imagined it could.
The last time came when the Seahawks (5-2) took over at their own 20 with 1:39 left, no timeouts, trailing 38-34 after the only time all day that the defense had bailed out the offense. On the previous possession Wilson — who was 26-41 on the day — made his only real mistake, trying to force a pass into single coverage to Richardson that was intercepted by Houston cornerback Marcus Williams at the Houston 8 with 2:49 left (the same player Wilson had just stiff-armed at the end of a 21-yard run).
While the Texans rightly celebrated the play wildly, Seattle got another chance when after allowing one quick first down the Seahawks then forced a punt that Tyler Lockett returned from his own 9 to the 20.
As he entered the huddle, Wilson said his message was a simple one.
"Have no fear,'' he said. "Let's go do this thing.''
And then they did, Wilson first going right back to loft another jump ball to Richardson who was locked in man coverage with Marcus Gilchrist. And as he did last week for a touchdown in New York, Richardson won the jump and then the fight for the ball and a 48-yard gain.
"That was such a great moment to get down the field that far, make a play,'' Carroll said. "And you just know why we're fighting because something good is going to happen, and he kind of set it in motion.''
Wilson vs. Watson
It was an epic quarterback battle Sunday. A look at how Seattle's Russell Wilson fared against Houston's Deshaun Watson.
452 Passing yds 402
4 TD passes 4
66 Long 72
63.4% Compl. pct. 63.3%
1 Interceptions 3
123.2 QB rating 106.9
30 Rushing yds 67
Next came an 18-yard pass to Lockett, whose most critical move — with the clock running — might have been to smartly run the ball to the middle of the field after the play was over so the Seahawks could get the next snap off as quickly as possible.
Then, on a play that snapped with 26 seconds remaining, Wilson threw to an inexplicably all-by-himself Jimmy Graham for the easiest touchdown on a day when there were a combined 10. Graham's TD, which officially came with 21 seconds, sewed up Seattle's fourth straight win.
"I haven't been that open over the middle in a while,'' Graham said. "Really, it was a perfect play call. We just went deep on them. … I think they were pretty tired.''
Houston coach Bill O'Brien hinted later that the Texans were confused about what defense to be in, saying, "The phones were going in and out. It was just one of those things.''
The scoring play not only gave Wilson his seventh touchdown pass in his past six quarters, and four for the game, but also allowed him to surpass Seattle's previous game passing record of 449 by Matt Hasselbeck in an overtime game at San Diego on Dec. 29, 2002.
"That was just really fun,'' said an equally ecstatic and exhausted Carroll.
Even if it was so completely unlike the Carroll-era Seahawks.
Seattle won despite rushing for just 33 yards on 21 carries — 30 on four by Wilson — with the tailbacks managing just 5 yards on 15 attempts.
Carroll acknowledged that the Seahawks — who from 2012-15 were among the top four in the NFL in rushing every year — eventually just abandoned any pretense of being able to run.
"It was so obvious that we weren't able to run the football,'' Carroll said. "When we realized that we were struggling, I thought (offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell and offensive line coach Tom Cable) did a great job to go ahead and go where we could go and not fight it.''
Instead, Wilson completed four passes of at least 48 yards or longer, with Lockett finishing with 121 yards receiving and Richardson 105.
There also became a point when Carroll realized the defense probably wasn't going to win this one, either.
"We couldn't stop them,'' Carroll said. "We thought we would be able to do better than that.''
If nothing else, they might have thought Watson would at some point falter the way so many young quarterbacks so often do at CenturyLink.
Instead, he looked so much like Wilson did as a rookie in 2012, running and passing and willing his way to what could have been a breakthrough victory for a team that began the day in turmoil.
More than two-thirds of the Houston players took a knee during the anthem as a statement against a comment revealed Friday to have been made by team owner Bob McNair about the "inmates running the prison.''
But any doubt about Houston's readiness was erased on the fifth play when Watson hit Will Fuller for a 59-yard touchdown, the first of 89 combined points that were the most at CenturyLink Field since Dallas beat Seattle 43-39 on a Monday night in 2004.
But if Houston scored first, it was Seattle that scored last and ultimately the most.
Then, as bedlam erupted, Sherman grabbed Wilson and said the words he would later repeat to the media — "You bailed us out.''
Words so sweet Sunday after just a few weeks ago when they might have seemed improbable.

Just give it to me now
byKevin Lee
Posted Jan. 9, 2020, 6 p.m.
Intel surprised us at CES 2020 by demoing its first discrete graphics card technology in a gaming laptop that was able to run Destiny 2 extremely well. And now in another unexpected surprise, Intel announced its plans to release its first dGPU in a desktop graphics card form factor as well.
Enter the Intel DG1, a seemingly small discrete graphics card with a blower style fan and a strip of RGB lighting. Unfortunately, Intel hasn't provided details on how many stream processors, compute units, or any measure of specs that would inform us of how powerful this card will be.
Instead, Intel's presentation slides allude to how the Xe graphics found inside the company recently announced 11th Generation Tiger Lake processors will be twice as powerful than the Gen 11 graphics found in last year's batch of 10nm Ice Lake CPUs.
Ice Lake's Gen 11 graphics were impressive in their own right allowing us to finally play games like Overwatch at Full HD and medium settings on something as lightweight as an Ultrabook. If Intel's Xe graphics are really as powerful they promise to be, we could be looking at a dGPU that's as powerful as a Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti or higher.
Where all of this ties back into the new DG1 graphics card is it shares the same underlying Xe architecture as Intel's new mobile graphics platform, so we should expect the same level of performance from this desktop product if not more.
Intel also announced its plans to establish its Xe graphics architecture across a wide array of devices. To that end Intel has split the Xe architecture across three lines of products including Xe-LP for mobile solutions with low-power envelopes (in other words, laptops). Meanwhile, Xe HP will power high-performance computers used in gaming and as workstations. Lastly, there's the Xe HPC platform that will cover deep learning and cloud computing usually seen in the enterprise sector.
Sadly, Intel only plans to initially provide its new DG1 graphics card to independent software vendors, so it won't be available to the general public anytime soon. But at least Intel plans to hold an AMA on Reddit on January 16th at 9am to 10am Pacific, where we hope to learn more about this mystery card.

Wes Craven and Me: A Eulogy from Generation-X
Aug 31, 2015 3 Comments by Jason Thorson
Prolific filmmaker and horror legend Wes Craven passed away from brain cancer on August 30th, 2015—what was yesterday as I type these words. I had no idea he was sick so his death comes as quite a shock. The malevolent "C-Word" snatches another one from our midst and leaves a hole in horror cinema that's deep and wide. More importantly, though, is that by all accounts we lost one of the good guys in this business.
Unlike some of the other people who will inevitably write about his passing and eulogize him over the coming days, I never got to meet Wes Craven. But I feel that in some ways I knew him quite well. So here's the story of Wes and me, the short version.
I was eight years old in 1984. My mother taught theater at a liberal arts college and my dad was a mailman, someone who worked hard all day then came home and watched movies. Despite the fact that we were broke, my parents' proclivities assured that one of our 10 or so television channels was HBO, and trips to the movie theater were frequent. The two of them—my mom and dad—in their unique ways, bestowed upon me and my older brother a love for cinema, performance, storytelling and art. But they didn't get along and that year they began what was a long, painful process that inevitably ended in divorce. Soon my mom moved out and my brother followed her.
It could have been a coincidence, or it could have been because the turmoil at home made me gravitate toward dark things, but 1984 was also the year that I discovered slasher flicks. I had been a monster-kid and I loved movies and TV like Jaws, Poltergeist, and Scooby Doo, but at eight years old it had been difficult to get my hands on the hard stuff. Then one of the first things my mom did when she got her own place was buy a VCR. It changed everything.
I stayed with my mom a few nights per week and the ritual was always the same. She'd pick me up at my dad's place and we'd drive across town to one of two—the first two—movie rental places in my hometown of Beloit, Wisconsin. She'd peruse the "boring old movies" while I'd scrutinize every single display box for what quickly became the easily identifiable artwork indicating a horror movie, an exploitation flick, or something weird, gross, and terrifying lurking inside. I loved it. I saw everything.
The first slasher flicks I watched were Friday the 13th and its first two sequels followed by Halloween and its first two sequels. I was hooked on this gory, violent style of horror—a style I knew was meant to be consumed by people much older than I was. I'd caught up with the genre over the first year of my VCR access and then in early-1985 I rented A Nightmare on Elm Street. It was immediately apparent that this slasher flick wasn't like the others. Somehow, some way, it transcended the formula and took horror to a new place, both literally and figuratively and it blew my not-quite-nine-year-old mind.
Wes Craven's boogieman leapt over his peers in a multitude of ways. Freddy Krueger—his burnt flesh, the fedora, the dirty Christmas sweater, and the glove…THE GLOVE, redefined the term "horror antagonist." And this maniac wasn't a mere mute killing machine. He was a chatter box and a malicious, lecherous one at that. It was high-concept terror to which we were all susceptible; everyone sleeps and we've all had nightmares. Craven's masterpiece wasn't just scary and immediately iconic, but through the lens of retrospection it's also arguably one of the top ten horror films of all time. To the eight-year-old me, watching A Nightmare on Elm Street was a profoundly wicked time akin to experiencing the entire month of October if it had been pumped up with steroids and compressed into a svelte 90 minutes.
Most importantly, Nightmare was one of the first movies that compelled me to seek out other movies by the same filmmaker. Craven's sleazy and disturbing earlier works, The Last House on the Left and The Hills have Eyes, soon became part of my heavy VHS rotation and they cracked open the door to the previous decade's macabre cinematic exploits. To my absolute delight I learned that Swamp Thing—a movie my brother and I had watched on HBO a gazillion times together in our basement—was also a gift from Mr. Craven. And, of course, his subsequent movies—Deadly Friend, The Serpent and the Rainbow, Shocker, and The People Under the Stairs—were movies that I saw on the big screen almost entirely because of the name "Wes Craven."
Craven's influence over me didn't stop at the video store or the movie theater. I dressed as Freddy the last two times I went out trick-or-treating, probably in 1987 and '88. When I ran for Sixth-Grade Class President at Gaston Elementary School, I cut up what had been the current issue of Fangoria—it featured A Nightmare on Elm Street 4–and I used the guts to make posters essentially blackmailing kids into voting for me or facing the wrath of the king of nightmares. I lost to a kid named Peter, but my ad campaign lives on in infamy. And being that I'm the quintessential horror nerd, I still own the aforementioned gutted issue of Fango. I may have even yelled, "Up yours with a twirling lawnmower," to those kids unfortunate enough to have been caught in my political crosshairs back then, but I can't say for sure.
I was an adult by the time New Nightmare came out and later Scream. I saw those in the theater, too, and had been disappointed, largely because as an angry, somewhat crazy young adult I had been chasing Freddy's ghost and failing to catch it. In the context of the mid-90s, which was an awful time for horror movies, I rejected the meta-fictional experience of New Nightmare and I was outraged at the great Wes Craven for winking at me instead of trying to scare me in earnest with the Scream movies. But unlike other pop cultural phenomena that wowed me early and later broke my heart (hello, Metallica), those perceived missteps didn't diminish my love for Craven's earlier work.
It would've been foolish to hold a grudge against Wes Craven for failing to re-ignite the experience A Nightmare on Elm Street gave me. With Scream, he tapped into the monster-kids of the next generation—the ones who hadn't seen Friday the 13th and Halloween—and he laid out the tropes and then made those kids go find those movies and watch them just like he did to me with Nightmare. Last House led me to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre which led me to Deranged and on and on. I imagine that for many of my younger peers who cover the horror genre, Scream led them to the movies with the garish, nasty artwork on their cases that I had so coveted a decade earlier.
My copies of A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Hills Have Eyes, Swamp Thing, The Serpent and the Rainbow, and The Last House on the Left are among the things I carry. I carry them with me from place to place, from apartment to apartment, and from house to house because they are among the items I own that make a place my home. And I carry them in my heart and in my imagination so that some semblance of that excited monster-kid lives and breathes—the one who was sad that his parents didn't love each other and afraid of what life was going to be like without his mom and brother at home…the one who found solace at Camp Crystal Lake, in Haddonfield, and most certainly on Elm Street. Things worked out and that kid is alive and well no matter how old I am otherwise.
Thank you, Wes Craven. You didn't know me, but I certainly knew you.

Before you start reading, I would like to announce that there is no typo in the title. I understand that home run problems are usually the concern of the pitcher, and that with the exception of a single scoreless appearance last Canada Day, Ryan Goins has never pithed at the professional level.
Before I get into that, I should first explain what happened in the Jays last game in Milwaukee. Up 4-1 in the 6th inning, Ryan Goins came up to bat. He did the most unexpected things I've seen from this team all season. If you haven't seen what Goins did, here's the video.
Ryan Goins hitting a grand slam is one of those things I did not expect to witness as I watched the game. Goins getting a hit is rare enough, so a 4 run moonshot has to be one of his all time career highlights.
The utility infielder has displayed more raw power than anyone expected this season, and has managed to hit a couple no doubters since carving a full time role at short stop. This is where the problem begins however, as hitting the occasional home run results in Goins attempting to go for more, which leads to bad hacks with massive uppercuts.
Goins has one plate appearance after his grand slam yesterday and it didn't go well, as he struck out on 4 pitches from Wily Peralta - a swingman with a 5.52 ERA. This at bat, Goins swung through two middle middle fastballs, before going down hacking at a slider outside the strikezone.
Although this is only one at bat, the fact remains that whenever Goins hits a home run, he gets ultra swing happy, and begins swinging out of his shoes trying to hit another. The result is a performance which is even worse at the plate that his usual flawed self.
This is what I mean when I say Goins has a home run problem. Hitting home runs makes him too undiciplined to be even a competitent hitter, let alone average one. But I can't just tell you that without giving you some evidence, so here's Goins' numbers in the 5 games following a HR (if Goins was only used as a defensive replacement and did not get a plate apperance, a 6th game is included).
In essence, Goins walks less, hits less, and hits for less power when he swings for the fences like he does after a recent home run. And if an already terrible hitter becomes even more terrible, it makes that player almost unusable and utterly useless.
In addition to these terrible numbers, on 3 separate occasions, Goins has failed to EVEN GET ON BASE in the 5 games with plate appearances following a home run. If this isn't enough to convince you Goins has a HR problem, maybe an even more specialized sample will convince you.
I could explain myself again but the evidence explaines it self. There is overwhelming evidence to suggest that an already ineffective hitting Ryan Goins is significantly worse after hitting home runs.
The fact remains that by trying yo hit dingers, Goins becomes too swing happy to be even remotely useful. In addition to the bad numbers, the eye test tells me that Goins whiffs significantly more when he try's to hit home run, and his lack of a single extra base hit in 14 games following a home run.
Anyway, if Goins is in the lineup tomorrow, I wouldn't be too optomistic about his performance. His consistinely poor showings following games where he hits bombs indicates that GoGo has a home run problem of sorts, even if it's not a problem in the traditional sense of the phrase.
The lack of consistent performance following games with home runs expose Goins' home run problem, and until he can prove to be a steadier offensive threat. Until then, Goins should remain out of the lineup, especially with Troy Tulowitzki and Josh Donaldson set to return tomorrow.

My case has been remanded for a second time by the BVA and I was wondering if there is any timeframe for the Nashville office to start working on the remand? One of the "orders" was for back pay back to 2007 and the money would help out a lot right now.
Remands are always supposed to get 'expeditious' treatment by the ROs but that is just an undefined part of VA lingo.
I assume you mean that the BVA granted you an earlier effective date...?
Are you now Rated as IU and did you receive the estimated $21K, less Attorney fee, that you discussed in your July post?
Not all BVA or CAVC Remands have a positive outcome. Remands, either BVA or CAVC, generally receive Priority and are handled by a Sr Rater or DRO.
Our concept of Priority Processing and that of the RO Rating Dept's is usually very different. I'm not sure but I don't recall a "REMAND" Section listed in the RO MMR (Monday Morning Report). Unless your BVA Appeal included a "Hardship Advancement," I'd say your Remand would be positioned at the bottom of your RO's Remand Pile, awaiting its progression to the top of the pile. First come, First served.
If possible, a posting of your redacted Remand would be very informative.
Gastone, my appeal can be seen on the BVA decisions page now. It is Citation number 1724920, and docket number 10-13 906A. I have not received any back pay to date, I am waiting on the regional office to take care of that. The decision was positive in my favor for service connection and back pay. The remand, the second one on this case, tells the regional office they were not in compliance with the 2013 remand. I was hoping that this time around it would not take three years for them to get it done.
Thanks for the info, will give it a read.

This week, the Senate Commerce Committee approved the nomination of Joel Szabat to be Under Secretary of Transportation for Policy, and the President nominated a longtime House staffer to fill the fifth and final seat on the Surface Transportation Board.
Szabat. The Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee approved Joel Szabat's nomination for the "S-3" post on July 22 by voice vote. The Senate traditionally confirms a large package of nominations by unanimous consent as the last item of business before embarking on a long recess, and the Senate is currently scheduled to leave on August 7 for a month-long recess, so Szabat (who has bipartisan support) might conceivably make it into the large pre-recess nominations deal. (If there is a deal this year.)
STB. On July 21, the White House transmitted a series of nominations to the Senate, including that of Robert Primus to be a member of the Surface Transportation Board, to fill the unexpired portion of Dan Elliott's term (expiring December 31, 2023).
Primus was, for years, the chief of staff to Rep. Mike Capuano (D-NJ), who served as the head Democrat on the Railroads Subcommittee of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee before Capuano left Congress at the end of 2018. Since then, he has been serving as chief of staff for second-term Rep. Nanette Diaz Barragan (D-CA).
Primus's nomination is not unexpected – quite the contrary. See this article written by Frank Wilner for Railway Age in September 2019, stating that Primus was "in line to be nominated by President Trump following a written recommendation to the White House by Senate Minority Leader Charles E. (Chuck) Schumer. For some reason, the internal paperwork on Primus's nomination took ten months, almost to the day – but the nomination has now been made formally.
This is welcome news to Michelle Schultz, who was nominated for a STB seat by President Trump all the way back in March 2018. Her nomination was approved by the Commerce Committee in April 2018, then died at the end of the 115th Congress. Her nomination was then re-transmitted at the start of the 116th Congress and she was approved by the Commerce Committee once again in July 2019 and has been pending on the Executive Calendar ever since.
Her problem is that there is a longstanding Senate tradition that nominees to multi-member regulatory boards move through the Senate floor in pairs – one Democrat and one Republican at a time. Schultz, a Republican, has had to wait for more than two years for a Democrat to be nominated alongside her so her nomination can move.
The STB currently has three members serving (two Republicans and one Democrat), so if Schultz and Primus move through the Senate as a pair, the STB would be full and would be 3R, 2D. However, chairman Ann Begeman's (R) term ends on December 31, 2020, so the confirmation of Schultz and Primus would not lock in a GOP majority into next year. If President Trump should lose the election this fall, President Biden could create a Democratic majority on the STB just as fast as he could nominate, and the Senate could confirm, Begeman's replacement.

Hello. Simply, if you have a USB cable, and it connects to your phone (be it USB to mini-USB, or micro-USB, either or), is it data capable?
The scenario: I am trying to sync my WP7 (HTC Arrive) with a computer, and to no avail. It seems the PC, nor Zune software, are picking up my device. The phone is charging, the red charge light is on, through the cable, but no sync startup.
Once again, my question is, if you have a cable that connects to your PC via USB, could it be charge-only, and not data?
Or, why on earth is my Windows Phone not starting up syncing with the PC?????

Yes, you there are some charge-only cables. Normal USB plugs have 4 pins (mini/micro USB have 5); 1 pin for voltage, 2 pins for data, and 1 pin for grounding. I believe charge-only USB plugs don't have or disable the 2 data pins.
Wow, thanks for the informative answer "starblade876". I can see where if you look into the USB plug, the pins are small, but visible, and you can count them. But what in the world?!??! If there are data pins present, but they are really disabled... good grief.

Parking at the Palazzo casino. It's the first right turn on the south side of Las Vegas Boulevard.
For the price,you got a bargain,other venues were only giving away 2 hours of open bar.
Drink was Good,Food No Where to be found. Drinks Count!
Self Parking & Valet Works,Cabs take too long if you are running late.
Save your money...skip this event.
Take the monorail and park at the LV Hilton, ride the monorail to Harrah's and walk from there.
Free drinks were awesome. There was no food.
No dress code. Come however you want.

I wonder how that happens.
For some reason, some toons' URLs end with 2, even though the toon is not the second in series. In some cases, this could be because there are two versions of the cartoon, as is the case with Homestar Talker. This also might be a parody similar to the Jibblies 2 gag. It is also worth noting that at Georgia Tech on April 26, 2007, The Brothers Chaps pointed out that the sky in the graphics library is called "Sky2", because they never bothered changing it to just "Sky".
