Melodia Womens Choir presents Sun, Moon, and Stars, a celebration of the universe as a constant force and source of wonder amid the Earths catastrophic challenges. On the heels of two virtual concerts during the pandemic, Melodia is thrilled to be performing in-person together again, in what will be their first live concert since November 2019. The steadfast presence of the stars, the moon, and the sun, is a comfort to us, states Artistic Director Cynthia Powell. We know theyre there, that time on their scale is barely fathomable, and the knowledge of their ineffable presence in spite of the exigencies of life on this pale blue dot has a grounding effect on our collective psyche. When we might feel hopeless or frustrated, wondering what the fate of our human race will be, we can look to the sun, moon, and stars for strength, for hope, and for constancy. The concert weaves together lesser-known works for treble voices, such as Moonplay by Lee R. Kesselman, Songs of the Lights by Imant Raminsh, and Stars by Ēriks Eenvalds, accompanied by tuned water glasses, with more familiar repertoire including Sure on This Shining Night by Morten Lauridsen, Randall Thompsons Choose Something Like a Star, and When You Wish Upon a Star, from Walt Disneys 1940 film, Pinocchio. The choir will also perform I Dream a World by André J. Thomas, one of the pieces Melodia recorded as a virtual choir video during the darkest COVID days. Rounding out the concert is an instrumental interlude featuring Claude Debussys Clair de Lune, performed by Melodia collaborative pianist Taisiya Pushkar and flutist Francesca Ferrara. Sun, Moon, and Stars will be presented live on November 21, 4:00 PM, at Holy Apostles, 296 Ninth Avenue, New York, NY 10001. Information: https://melodiawomenschoirnyc.org/melodia-womens-choir-in-concert/ Tickets are $20 for general admission and $15 for students and seniors in advance, while tickets at the door are $25: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sun-moon-and-stars-a-live-concert-by-melodia-womens-choir-tickets-189186370527.

Friday, July 13, 2018 We Happy Few has been through an interesting development journey. Initially thought to be a heavily story-driven BioShock-alike, some were surprised to learn that Compulsion Games' follow-up to Contrast was actually something completely different. Ostensibly a survival game married to a smattering of light narrative elements, We Happy Few's early access phase demonstrated to Compulsion that it wasn't exactly what players had hoped for. As we near the game's launch on 10th August, it's clear that the developer has taken this feedback on board and put a greater emphasis on story. As such, the paradigm has shifted, pushing We Happy Few's survival gameplay into the background in favour of increased narrative insights into each of the game's three playable characters and the decaying, archetypal English town of Wellington Wells. The survival elements haven't been completely nixed, however. You can still eat and drink, but it's no longer essential for staying alive; you'll just lose the buffs that food and drink imbue. “We learnt that players really liked the handcrafted encounters, and the game being more roguelike, more systemic,” Narrative Designer Alex Epstein tells us. “It was always going to have a main narrative, but they told us that they were less interested in hardcore survival and more interested in an adventure story. So we had an adventure story which we hadn't shown people that we've fleshed out, we've deepened it. So now there are the audio flashbacks that you have, [and] there are many, many more encounters." These audio flashbacks are delivered via collectible masks you'll find at various junctures during We Happy Few's pitch black story, and the encounters you'll have with the drug-addled residents of Wellington Wells will vary between outright hostile and desperately unhinged. We Happy Few centres on Arthur, Ollie, and Sally, all of whom are working to mount their own quiet rebellion against the repressed masses, as well as the authority keeping them in check with the ubiquitous hallucinatory drug, Joy. Within the dystopian retro-futuristic 1960s London town, you'll have to blend in to avoid unwanted attention at any cost, and Arthur sticks out like a sore thumb in his impeccably pressed suit. After surviving the same fraught escape from Arthur's office and an ensuing confrontation with violent enemy faction the Headboys that you may have already played in We Happy Few's early access version, you'll need to shred your suit to tatters so that you can pass unnoticed. And Arthur is used to being ignored. Second playable character Sally, on the other hand, is used to being the centre of attention. Formerly a famous 'It Girl', her glamorous style a facade hiding a difficult past and the skills of a gifted chemist. Sally is able to evade enemies or incapacitate them using a powerful cocktail of drugs administered through her handcrafted syringes. Unlike third playable character Ollie, Sally isn't particularly adept in combat encounters, but Ollie, the former soldier with an imaginary friend named Margarette, relishes any excuse to stove in heads with his cricket bat. You'll play as Ollie upon aiding Arthur during one of his main story encounters, and the mad Scotsman is well-equipped to take the fight directly to any wastrel foolhardy enough to cross him. He's the most combat-centric of We Happy Few's three protagonists and a man with a vendetta against the powers that be, as well as the malevolent TV presence of big bad Uncle Jack. Ollie sees himself as the only man capable of uncovering the dark truth behind the collapse of Wellington Wells, and he's keen to give Uncle Jack a bashing too. Arthur, Sally and Ollie will all meet during We Happy Few's story, but their account of events during their encounters won't always necessarily line up. “Arthur meets Sally, [and] he has a story chain, there are three times they meet, and each time you see the same scene, but it's not really the same scene,” Epstein cites as an example. “They remember it differently; Arthur interprets what she said in different ways. The game is about how we remember things in not the way they literally happened, and how it suits us to remember [certain things]. Everybody has a different memory.” How much Joy you decide to take will also have an impact on how We Happy Few's narrative unfolds, affecting conversations and perceptions, but enabling you to pass amid the drug-fuelled citizens. There'll be other key decisions to make, and Epstein notes that Arthur will have a major choice to make at the game's conclusion too. While the game could still use a little extra spit and polish, We Happy Few is looking to be a deliciously dark, knowingly weird and surreal experience told from three differing perspectives. The decision to embrace the narrative side of the game and pare down the survival component could end up paying off in a big way too; We Happy Few is a far more gratifying prospect in its current state than it was when I first played it via Xbox Game Preview. Here's hoping that the story proves compelling enough to reel us in when We Happy Few launches next month.

Crispus Attucks to host 39th annual MLK Day program virtually The Crispus Attucks Association honors Martin Luther King Jr. every year with a day of service in York City filled with projects and programming that highlight the life of King. The event normally begins with a free community breakfast at the association before a day's worth of activities from live music to guest speakers to service projects, where everyone can get together to meet and mingle. But for the first time in 39 years, all that is happening virtually because of the pandemic. "We would like for it to happen in person. Unfortunately, we can't this year for safety reasons," said CEO Jacquie Martino-Miller. "But I think that they're really going to enjoy the virtual live tours." Crispus Attucks will host its 39th Annual MLK Day of Service via Zoom at 10 a.m. Monday. The community is invited to join online by going to https://zoom.us/join and using the ID 478 270 9729 with password V09QUK. The event will feature live tours of Martin Luther King Jr. historical sites and York City's William C. Goodridge Center and Underground Railroad Museum. "The pandemic caused us to be (virtual), but we have to think outside of the box with this pandemic. But people are still getting served in the community," Martino-Miller said. Organizers will provide free “Grab and Go” breakfasts and lunches for people to take home this year. The meals will be available for pickup from 9 a.m. to about 1 p.m. Monday at the association, 605 S. Duke St., and books will be distributed by Women United. "What I feel good about is the education part of it because that's important for people to know — to be educated about MLK and the history and also some of the history in Pennsylvania and in York," Martino-Miller said. The association usually teams up with a variety of local organizations to help host some community service projects, but that didn't happen this year. "We didn't really call anybody to do that this year in that way just because it was virtual and we knew that we wouldn't have a lot of people in the building," Martino-Miller said. "We made it small for safety reasons." Founded in 1931, Crispus Attucks of York is a nonprofit that provides philanthropic services such as education and affordable housing to enhance the quality of life for a diverse population. "It's always good gathering for people to be able to see people they haven't seen for a while, so it's a good social gathering," Martino-Miller said. "Unfortunately we're not able to do it this year, but we're hoping that we will be able to get back to doing it the traditional way in 2022."

After five years in business SEO Works deployed Zoho to break out of its small business organizational chaos to become a medium-sized company managing 140 clients. Based in Australia and San Francisco, SEO Works is a medium-sized company providing search services. They work with clients that want to increase their visibility with search engines. Having started with just a couple of employees, SEO Works has 24 employees today and a thriving business with hundreds of ongoing projects. Nine years ago when the company started, they had everything a new business would want – leads and referrals. Unfortunately that information was captured in a haphazard fashion. Leads were written down on slips of paper, or copied into spreadsheets. For a couple of people in the office, that was manageable. Once the company had four employees, they were seeing some problems, admitted Keith Paulin, Group General Manager and employee number one of SEO Works. The poor management of contacts meant they were not able to handle new opportunities efficiently. “As you get bigger you need to make sure those opportunities, as they come up, don’t slip through the cracks,” said Paulin who realized that at 10 people it became critical for them to find a collaboration solution just so they could support their clients. SEO Works faced the same troublesome issues most small companies faced. Their lack of organization, collaboration, and insight into how well the business was doing meant it simply couldn’t grow. What CRM solution works for our growing business? As they struggled to grow their business, SEO Works also struggled to find a CRM solution that would work with their unique needs while also not taxing them financially and with unnecessary development. They tried a free CRM for a short time, but it was so unmemorable that Paulin honestly can’t remember its name. Then they gave Salesforce a go, and stuck with it for about a year and a half. While Paulin admitted that Salesforce is powerful, it was somewhat inflexible and didn’t connect with everything they wanted it to connect with right out of the box. They wanted a solution that would map their entire business from end to end, in their point of view (e.g., from phone call, to request, to project). While that was possible with Salesforce it would have required a ton of learning, an external consultant, and very detailed development work. They simply didn’t have the time nor money to deal with that. SEO Works admittedly had a love-hate relationship with Salesforce. And once they got to ten users then the licensing costs became an issue, said Paulin. How discovered Zoho When I asked Paulin how they discovered Zoho he simply responded, “We’re a search engine optimization company.” Through just natural search SEO Works stumbled upon Zoho. Four years ago they were dazzled by the fact that requests could come in via websites and then fed directly into Zoho. That’s nothing by today’s standards, but back then to SEO Works it was a big deal. Not only was the simple usability attractive, but so was the flexibility of the licensing. It was extremely easy to add users. Paulin didn’t have to worry about signing long term contracts with a CRM vendor. As a growing company, it was very important for them to easily add new licenses and not be encumbered by a long term contract. Using Zoho to map the entire business flow “One of the great things about Zoho is you can hit the ground running quite quickly,” said Paulin. “We were literally an out of the box user.” SEO Works quickly put their entire business flow into Zoho CRM and Zoho Projects. They bring in leads. Leads become accounts. An account then creates a case. They create products, prepare quotes for clients, and then convert those to sales orders which are moved into a different cloud-based accounting solution, explained Paulin who also liked adding business rules to leads which automatically routed them and triggered further actions. That flow continues when Paulin is outside of his office. He uses Zoho on his mobile and loves the feature that allows him to enter information about a call right after the call completes. Visibility into all operations “We no longer have that level of small- to medium-sized business discomfort that says, ‘How’s my business doing,’” said Paulin. “I can see very quickly, literally in two screens, how we’re traveling, where that business is coming from, how that’s moving through the system. Our business revolves around Zoho.” Unlike SEO Works’ early days, they now have very measurable benchmarks thanks to Zoho. They know the number of leads that come in and how many of them are hot. “Those kinds of benchmarks for a growing company are very important to us,” said Paulin. “We would never have been able to grow to the size that we are and to deal with the clients that we deal with [such as IBM and Telstra].” “We wouldn’t be able to manage those projects and we wouldn’t be able to make sure we manage them effectively, deliver a good product, and deliver it profitably. So to be absolutely honest, without Zoho we wouldn’t have gotten to the stage that we’re at,” admitted Paulin. “I wouldn’t know end-to-end about 400 projects and duties going on. I couldn’t have that at my fingertips without Zoho.” What are you going to do when you do get the business? Many of SEO Works’ clients are young companies looking to grow themselves. While Paulin’s business can drive traffic and generate leads, they’re not designed to reinvent their clients’ businesses. Before they deploy a SEO solution that will deliver results, SEO Works asks their clients, “When we generate this business, then what?” The response is often met with silence to which Paulin will often respond, “We think you need a CRM solution in place to begin to deal with this stuff.” The client may hem and haw, but it’s necessary not just for the client, but also for SEO Works. “It’s selfish for us because we want them to see measurable results coming into their business,” said Paulin.

We have a lot of advantages that come about with having this ecrion software for document templates generation. Usually creating a new document every time can be a hassle. One of the key challenge is in identifying the contents of a particular document that you want to make or print. We have a variety of software for instance CCM application among others that will help with the issue of documents template generation. This is a program that will give you a variety of sample document templates that you can select the one that you would like to use for your purpose. The benefit of this is that it give the outer format of the document you would like to generate so that you can just put in the fleshy part on your own.

Choosing the most appropriate software document templates is never easy, click for more on information that will help you with that. You need to read more on the kind of templates that the template generator will produce. Some softwares tend to have only a specific kind of templates while others have a variety. Another thing you should consider is the ease of adding extra templates or customizing them for your business. There are some good things you will get when you utilize this program to make document templates. Firstly, when you s this software, you will be able to make the process of making documents very easy and quick and in turn there is no time wastage.

For illustration purposes, time can be reallocated to other more pressing issues or work roles at the job environment. In case a worker lacks she skills on preparing documents, then they will not struggle, they can maneuver through by themselves since it is a straightforward thing. Another merit for this is that it reduces time spent on document making and in entirety it will minimize the costs that are associated with with this preparation of such documents. If the firm requires a lot of documents of a certain type then it will have to pay an outside company but with a software then there is no need for that. The other benefit comes to the clients. Since they are accustomed to getting your documents in a particular way, it is very straightforward to know if there is fraud or impersonation of your organization. The template will have the graphical signs and logos which are all difficult to imitate.

Each character set is a specially coded GIF that combines all the characters in the set into one file, along with their width, height, and encoding. The image is a standard gif, and can be viewed with any gif viewing program, but they should not be edited directly. You should edit the individual images and merge them together according to the custom character set instructions or the installation instructions. The layout of the gifs is shown by this example diagram: Throughout this gif, numbers are encoded in binary as columns of pixels. The top pixel indicates which pixels in the column represent ``1''; other pixel colors indicate ``0''. It does not matter what the pixel values or RGB components are. The first column encodes the height of the character set. All characters must be the same height. For each character in the set, a column encoding the character number (0x30 = `0', 0x6d = `m') and a column encoding the width (0x06 0x08) precede the actual image of the character. Here's one of the charsets magnified so you can see what it looks like: Note that the AM, :, and PM indicators often code as `a', `c', and `p', respectively.

GBMW II Photos: Phoenix 1999 GBMW III Photos: Hollywood 2001 The Glen Buxton Memorial Weekend Since 1997 I've heard and read so many wonderful memorial thoughts on G.B.. It has been an overwhelming climax of appreciation for the blonde bomber that I had already been experiencing since his passing. For that was the day I put my first memorial to him online. It has been online and growing since. Eventually, through the help of my friend James Saqui, it found it's home at www.GlenBuxton.com and shall always stay there. Being in charge of this project made me the recipient of loads of touching stories from all over the world. I didn't know G.B. for long, but the thrill and having met this wonderful man who's music I respected so much was still very fresh when word came to me that he was gone. It was only seven days after working with him to provide any little bit of assistance I could for him to play a semi-reunion show with Michael Bruce and Neal Smith, along with the emporer Richie Scarlet, the high was still very much in me and the news met it like an atomic explosion between the two emotions. Such a high to such a low so quickly. I was truly devastated. All the emotions got a chance to get restirred at the memorial weekend. It's taken me a few days of recovery to be able to come up with these words. If you were there, I think you understand. If you weren't, I don't know if billion dollar words could help you live the experience. It was even more than I had anticipated it would be. Knowing that I wanted to relate the experience to those many many fans who have written me, I made plans to find a digital camera and try to show the experience to the world of those who couldn't attend by sending pictures through the internet via my conveniently addressed site with unlimited disk space. I didn't have much luck chasing down someone else's camera. I knew if this happened, I would buy or rent one despite the fact that I'm hopelessly in debt. I did. Being a computer geek kinda guy, I knew what features I wanted. I grabbed all sorts of odds'n'ends and drove the familiar 848 mile drive that I drove straight through to attend the funeral. I had a odd carload full of memorabilia and equipment. I had a lot on my mind and had already travelled 30 miles before I realized I forgot my laptop PC. Without hestitation, I turned back for I could not update the photos online without it. It turned out I got all the way there before realizing I also had forgotten a bag containing camcorder accessories, soothing Jack Daniels whiskey, my regular camera, blank videotapes and Sharpie pens for the autograph seekers. I obviously had heavy thoughts clouding my mind. I arrived at 1 AM. The motel rooms were all darkened and occupied. I did not think they could be fully booked in this little town on a Thursday night, but they were. And I only made reservations for Friday and Saturday. So I pulled the car in their lot, got some cold beers out of the trunk and sat back with the radio on and drank a toast to G.B.'s ghost. I entertained myself also by doodling some thoughts about the experience on a piece of paper with a black marker. As I got more relaxed, I threw the sleeping bag across the top of the lowered cloth bucket car seat, took off my shoes and slept comfortably with the adlibbed sign in the window behind a sun shade. In the morning I walked into the hotel and wandered down the hallway. I spotted the familiar face of Bill Risoli who introduced me to one man I was very anxious to meet by the name of Paul Brenton. I knew from discussions with both of them that they had big plans. I rode with them to the Pizza Ranch where they proceeded to take over the entire back room with their decorations of Glen's life with contributions from the Buxton family and Brian "Renfield" Nelson as well as much of their own collections. Paul had very nice name tags for every expected attendee and I helped arrange them in alphabetical order on the table. I got back to the hotel after awhile and tried for just a minute to get some rest before everything started happening. Nothing doing... I got back up, showered, threw on my "Cooper's Troopers" tee shirt, unpacked a little and headed back towards the meet and greet room. I believe it was at this time that I saw Paul outside the motel speaking to someone and stopped to ask if he had yet stopped for lunch. He was having a conversation with none other than John Speer, who was the early drummer of the band in the old days. When I was introduced, I think I could only say "Oh, wow!". I was shaking yet another hand of part of the whole Alice Cooper story. A now familiar feeling. When I first saw Neal Smith, I was thrilled that he even remembered who I was. He walked up and said "Nice to see you again" and that thill went right up my spine at those particular words. It was right around this time I started getting the slighty eerie but warm feeling that G.B. was with us. I guess because the last two times I saw Neal was when I last saw G.B. and at his funeral. Paul effectively put a face on this spirit as he created posters of all sizes with Glen's face that got posted everywhere... the hotel, the Pizza Ranch, and Little Willie's especially. I saw it at local hardware stores, restaurants and a pharmacy also. As the sign I dribbled on in the middle of the night stated, this was Buxtonville, not Clarion, on this day.

Through the years we have developed an effective curriculum for teaching students to read music by sight. This not only allows one to sing a yet-unknown song, but also to sing harmony parts as composed by the song’s writer. Sight Reading is an invaluable skill. At The Singing School, we teach our students to read music using SHAPE NOTES. In just two short hours, students learn how to sight read simple melodies and harmony parts. Each year the curriculum calls for 7½ hours of time in the sight reading classroom. Many of our students call sight reading their favorite class, because of the enjoyable and accessible way it’s taught. These lessons are most effective when practiced throughout the year. In the past few years, our students have requested handouts of our visuals so that they can work on these concepts between summers at Abilene. Here are some of our most-used visuals and exercises: When prompted for a password, just click “read only” to proceed to the slides. What Others Say… I have a music degree from a 4-year college and thought I knew everything I needed to know about singing and writing music. Guess what!!! Didn’t know as much as I thought I did. Learned tons of new stuff. They attract some of the best teachers in their field!! Well worth your time!! “I highly recommend the Singing School, as there is an urgent need for song leader training.” Keith Lancaster (4/4/16), Cullman, Alabama “I plan on making Singing School a part of my summer for my whole life!” Megan A., Neosho, Missouri “I always thought I was a fairly decent song leader before attending the school. But having gone thru the program, I learned from excellent instructors and have confidence to lead in ways that I would have never tried before. I was challenged to be better, not for me, but for Him.” Robin E., Madison, Alabama “The fellowship and love we had together in song and spirituality is something I will cherish for the rest of my life … I would encourage anyone who has a passion for leading the church in worship to take the time even for one year to experience what the Singing School has to offer.” Alan D., London, England “I had a WONDERFUL time with all of you this week! I will work hard this year!” Megan A., Missouri “We had a good time singing with you all tonight. Thanks for letting us stop by.” Jason F., Abilene, Texas “What a great, intense week the Singing School was! I want to shout my thanks to all of you who work so hard to make this happen. I can only imagine the time and effort that goes into it.” Kerri R., Grants Pass, Oregon “I thank all of the teachers, coaches, and staff here at ACU Singing School for helping me get where I am today. I had a long way to go and I’m just barely getting started… thank you all from the bottom of my heart.” Robert H., Temple, Texas “So stoked to be in our church’s regular song leading rotation. Lead today again and loved it! I love leading people in worship for God! Thank you all for all I learned with you guys!” Jeff R., Abilene, Texas “So today I was able to song lead in Ladies’ Chapel! I am proud to say that I did the time signature and was on pitch! … I got a lot of compliments and it made me really happy! So glad that I was able to go to this school and learn what I did!” Alejandra G., Lubbock, Texas “Some of the most talented, sincere, and spiritual people I’ve ever met was because of the Singing School.” Robin E., Madison, Alabama “I never would have thought or dreamed of being able to even be in front of 2 or 3 people a few years ago. … never would have been possible without the love, support, and teaching of this singing school.”

Street Style: Fashion Week Montreal I met very lovely people at this Fashion Week and I'm truly happy to have attended every single day! I apolagize if I don't remember some names because I have a gold fish memory.... but I do recall that they were all amazingly stylish fellows! I met him at my first show and he seriously caught my attention with this neon necklace. While browsing around the cocktail area I got strike when I saw this beautiful girl wearing this inspired Dolce Gabbana outfit... I HAD to take a picture of her!!! Dolce & Gabbana's winter 2012 collection is my ultimate favourite collection... and this girl seriously pulled it off! This young fashion design student caught my eye with his custom studded shirt...I simply fell in love with this detail... It had that surprise touch! I really loved her outfit because it was semi casual and semi classy! This wool blazer reminiscent to a Chanel jacket with these washed jeans and a simple white top were a perfect equation for a relaxed yet fashion forward look. (Rocca from who knows fashion ) I saw her taking steet styles pictures and watching her take place to take a shot I noticed her beautiful necklace! Her skull diamonded necklace seriously caught my attention! Her casual and a bit bohemian look with a touch of bling was an outstanding combination and it was a pleasure meeting another fabulous blogger! While walking around and waiting for the next show... I got caught by watching these two ladies chit chat and I simply had the duty to take a shot of their rocky chic style! I loved the way they combined their feminine side such as a delicate silk black top and these floral pants with these leather biker jackets! When I saw this girl I thought she was one of the models from the runwat because she is quite tall and obviously gorgeous but she's not...Her black Chanel purse caught my eye and I simply loved the combination of her snake patterned pants with a denim top layered with a leather jacket... Just a lovely outfit! And finally Daniel Manzini and me!!! I met this talented Italian hair stylist at fashion week and he was a true fashion angel!!! I always enjoy meeting twitter followers in person :) I'm sure you'll be seeing him around more in Montreal's fashion scene!

Nissan Leaf and Aria got another sibling. It may be an electric shortcut made in the UK. This will be part of a massive investment of 1 1 billion, including the production of batteries. Nissan – Sketch Crossover 2021 Nissan is investing 1 1 billion in the UK in the production of electric cars and batteries. It avoids customs duties when exporting vehicles from Sunderland to European markets. This also applies to the upcoming shortcut. Nissan has decided to invest ஒரு 1 billion to accelerate its transition to carbon neutrality. The project was named EV36Zero. It aims to create the world’s first electric vehicle manufacturing environment. The hub will be Nissan’s manufacturing plant in Sunderland, where another electric shortcut will disappear. 3 423 million will be invested in its growth and production. The innovation is based on the CMF-EV electric platform, which is already in use by Nissan Aria and will soon be supported by the new Renault Meghan. In the UK, it will create more than 900 jobs directly at the plant and create 4,500 subcontractors. We can only imagine with a single sketch the new crossover that suggests an attractive SUV coupe with large wheels and a different roof. Some media believe it may not be Nissan’s third electric car, but Leaf’s more attractive successor. It must be fitted with a new generation of batteries, which will also be manufactured in the UK. EV36 Zero’s vision includes the construction of a new battery plant, again in Sunderland with an annual capacity of nine GWh, to meet the needs of 100,000 electric cars per year. After Nissan, Brexit has nothing to invest in this country. The agreement, concluded with the EU last year, allows cars to be traded only on the condition that at least 40 per cent of the value of the vehicle exported to Britain be produced in its territory. From 2027, this share will increase to 55 per cent, which means that batteries imported to British factories will have a negative impact on the performance of British cars in the EU. “Passionate coffee fanatic.

This challenging on two fronts lark is alright, isn’t it? Being in the thick of the title race and the quarter-finals of the European Cup has a proper retro vibe and not since 1984 have Liverpool been in as strong a position to carry off the two biggest prizes. Winning in Munich in such an emphatic manner has shifted mindsets. Talk of preferences, predominantly league over Europe, has taken a back seat. Treating the Champions League as a secondary objective felt out of kilter with Liverpool fan’s traditional mentality; a sacrilegious departure from the very thing that has sustained us during the barren domestic years. Watching Sadio Mane send the Bayern defence and half of Bavaria for the Echo only whets the appetite for a passage to Madrid. Now though it’s back to grindstone. Fulham away has none of the glamour to match the scarlet glow of the Allianz Arena. Craven Cottage couldn’t be further removed, a rickety old ground on the banks of the Thames filled with a strangely eccentric support which could easily pass for a rugby crowd sated by smoked salmon and champers. Think of Fulham and you struggle to conjure a signature image, bar Mohamed Al-Fayed’s bizarre “Jacko” statue (thankfully removed) and a brief George Best renaissance in the late 1970s. The Cottage however has twice been the scene of joyous Liverpool celebrations during our last two title challenges. Yossi Benayoun’s last minute winner in 2009 convinced everyone that a creaking Manchester United were in our sights – until that heinous Macheda moment the next day. Similarly, in 2014 when Steven Gerrard was swirling his top in front of us after a late penalty, it suddenly dawned that the skipper believed we could prevail. The less said the better about how that one ultimately turned out but hope springs eternal and the same burning ambition travels to West London again five years on. The victory in Germany was the perfect way to banish thoughts of three consecutive away draws in the Premier League. Any further slip ups on the road would put paid to realistic title ambitions and Fulham on Sunday represents the easiest of Liverpool’s remaining away fixtures. Southampton, Cardiff and Newcastle all still have relegation concerns but the Cottagers have no such motivation. Having spent in excess of £100m after last season’s promotion, Fulham have made a pig’s ear of this campaign and are marooned thirteen points from safety. When they lost 2-0 at Anfield in November, Slavisa Jokanovic was in the death throes of his spell at the club soon to be replaced by Claudio Ranieri. The Italian manifestly failed to summon any of the magic that he brought to Leicester and was sent packing last month with Scott Parker enlisted as a caretaker manager for the rest of the season. With Fulham so adrift, Liverpool shouldn’t be too fearful of any new manager “bounce” and if Jurgen Klopp has a job to do it is to guard against complacency. Liverpool’s incentive is that three points, while Manchester City are otherwise engaged in the FA Cup, put them back on top of the table before the international break. City might still enjoy a marginal advantage but their cup commitments and an inevitably feisty Champions League double header against Spurs give Liverpool cause for hope that league points could go begging in April. Whatever side Jurgen Klopp chooses should be good enough to do the job at Craven Cottage. Jordan Henderson’s ankle injury is inopportune but offers Adam Lallana the chance to build on his performance against Burnley. Naby Keita’s frustrations continue, the muscle strain that kept him out in midweek likely to side-line him again, leaving Gini Wijnaldum, James Milner and Fabinho as Klopp’s remaining midfield options. Regardless of the opposition it would still be a major surprise if Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah didn’t all start up front. After Wednesday, belief is coursing through Liverpool veins. It would be a travesty if this remarkable season went unrewarded. Technically, the Reds still need a favour in the title race but let’s not look at it like that and instead assume that eight wins from here does the trick. Fulham is the first step on that road. Porto (and probably Barca) await in Europe and dare we contemplate Manchester City in Madrid to scale those twin peaks? *Odds are subject to change Leave a comment

Technology is expanding rapidly; more and more information is going digital. Cybersecurity is now a global concern for small and large businesses alike. Just February of this year (2021), Singapore Airlines has become one of the victims of a recent cyber attack on a third-party IT company – SITA. More than 500,000 of Singapore Air’s frequent flyer member’s data have been breached with a “highly sophisticated attack”. These attacks just show that anybody could be a victim and that today is not the right time to be complacent and ignorant about cybersecurity measures for your company. In this article, read on as we will guide you on why you need to take your cybersecurity seriously, invest sufficiently and adopt sensible countermeasures to protect your data. Why you should take cybersecurity seriously: The impact With all the cybersecurity news we keep on hearing across the globe day by day, it just seems like a never-ending battle. Yet, there are still a lot of companies that do not take cybersecurity seriously thinking that their businesses do not attract hackers due to their smaller size than the larger companies featured in the news. However, small businesses are just as likely to be the victim of cyber-attacks as large corporations are – we are just less likely to hear about these attacks. Just think about it, an attack affecting a company with only just around 20 employees will not make much noise anywhere compared to a large bank that has been crippled by a data breach, see? The only difference is that large corporations tend to have a higher chance of bouncing back after an attack while small businesses do not. Cyber threats are becoming more and more complex as technology evolves and complacency can just heighten our risk of cybercrime which can cause heavy damage to your business. Being crippled by a cyber-attack is no longer a question of “if” but of “when”. And if we continue not to employ cybersecurity measures in place, business operations can get disrupted which often leads to: 1. Financial loss Cyber-attacks often result in financial loss in the form of theft of intellectual property, theft of corporate information, disruption of trading, and the cost of repairing damaged systems. Cybercrimes are becoming more sophisticated, and they do not measure whether you are a small or a large business. But if your system is vulnerable, you are more exposed to any cyber-attacks and data breaches. This will lead to more expense to the company as they remediate the affected system, network, or devices. 2. Reputational risk As much as possible, businesses are taking care of their brand and reputation to remain competitive. Many business owners avoided disclosing cyber-attacks, fearing this could invite further attacks or damage their reputation. However, without finding a solution, this will lead to loss of consumer trust, loss of sales, contracts, loss of current and future customers, and disruption of trading. Moreover, the effect of reputational damage can have a significant impact on your suppliers, and that can affect the relationships of your stockholders, investors, and other parties invested in your business. 3. Regulatory costs Your business could suffer from regulatory fines or sanctions because of failing to comply with data protection legislation. Data protection and privacy laws require the organization to secure all the sensitive information from personal data to customer information. Being hit by a cyber-attack costs you more than just monetary values and sometimes, unfortunately, these impacts are also what hinder some businesses to bounce back to their business operations after an attack. The impacts we cited above should be enough for you to start taking your cybersecurity measures up a notch. But do not take too much of your time… Cyber attackers are not slowing down According to VMware Carbon Black’s Singapore Threat Report: - 43% of Singapore-based companies have seen an increase in cyber-attack volume in the last 12 months, while - 67% of these organizations stated that the attacks have become more sophisticated than before. These figures denote that cyber-criminals are not really into slowing down their cyber-attack strategies but even adopting more advanced tactics to exploit businesses. These can lead to a more devastating impact in disrupting your operations and even your customer’s trust. What does this mean for you? Cyber-criminals are relentless, persistent, and unlikely to stop, they adopt new technology at a fast pace, they provide new approached to steal your data and gain access to your networks that could block your services and impose costs just to retrieve your data or network. 5 best cybersecurity practices for your business As we continue adapting to the digital world, threats also grow exponentially, affecting businesses regardless of size and industry. The studies reveal that investing in cyber-security solutions today should not just be an option but a priority for your business to run smoothly and securely. But aside from the cybersecurity solutions in place, maintaining a good cybersecurity practice daily across your organization is also important. Here are 5 basic tips you can start with that can help and protect your business 1. Keep all your software updated Most business owners get too busy without knowing that their software is outdated. Hackers tend to gain access via exploits. Not updating regularly, makes your systems or your networks vulnerable to cyber-attacks. 2. Secure strong password policies One of the biggest threats in business is a weak password. One of the primary choices for hackers in compromising servers and endpoints is brute-force attacks. In this form of attack, cyber-criminals will input as many passwords as possible, with the aid of bots, just to see if any of them work against the target. The attacks are often successful due to the number of systems that use default credentials or extremely common passwords. Here are tips on how to secure a strong password: - Make it a practice that all passwords should have at least 8 letters with special characters, and the more complicated password, the better chance to have higher protection. - Do not use the same password on other devices. - Change your passwords regularly, choose something easy to remember. - Use two-factor or Multi-factor authentication, it adds a layer of security to online identification. 3. Back up your data Backing up your data is also one of the overlooked practices in a business. If you are a victim of ransomware or other malicious cyber-attack, the only way to restore your data and get back to business operations is your recently performed backup. Make sure that you keep a copy of your data in different media locations such as local and external hard drives, offsite backup, or cloud backup. Backing up your data to the cloud or an offsite location is also a great investment so that in the event of natural disasters, affecting your on-premises backup system, you can still be able to roll back to business with your cloud or offsite backup. 4. Educate your staff Human error is one of the most causes of data leaks and breaches. It is important to educate your staff to identify the threats and practice to stay away from suspicious links. Here are a few cybersecurity tips for your staff to remember: - Do not open emails from people you do not know. - If the email is suspicious, better delete it right away. - Malicious links are sometimes coming from within the company network or from friends that might have been infected. So, be vigilant. It only takes one click to infect a user’s system with malware or ransomware, from there, it can easily travel to your network. So, be very careful on clicking links or opening an attachment in the emails. Are your employees ready for a cyber-attack? 5. Outsourcing your cybersecurity Too many things to keep an eye on? If you are not into the technicalities of cybersecurity but still want to get your company protected and prepared, you can choose to easily outsource IT Professionals to manage your cybersecurity so you could focus on your core business while ensuring you are protected from attacks. Outsourcing your cybersecurity allows you to worry less about daily IT operations while getting everything up & running when you come into work each morning. Plus, you get to have access to reliable and certified professionals, proactive support, and even newer technologies that could help in scaling your business. Cybercriminals are just lurking around looking for areas to exploit businesses, taking a single step and practicing these cybersecurity basics on day-to-day operations can help you stay ahead of the game. We know by now that cybersecurity can greatly impact our business in more ways than one. These basic practices can help fend off cyber criminals if done correctly and consistently on a day-to-day basis but where and how should we start? As every business is different, there is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach to cybersecurity. To address every business’s different needs, we need to take a step back and evaluate what security systems you already have in place, what possible gateways hackers could make use of to get into your organization, what systems or appliances are outdated that could be exploited, and everything else in between. Perform a Cybersecurity Assessment To determine what will work best for your business’s cybersecurity, we need to have the right strategy, and strategy comes after analyzing and assessing your current cybersecurity posture. Data Connect Technologies Cyber Security Assessment Services With DCT’s cybersecurity assessment services, you get the full visibility you need to improve your cybersecurity posture. The cybersecurity assessment can help you identify gaps across software & devices to ensure compliance with your internal security policies; address threats requiring immediate action and get recommendations to consolidate security functions to reduce cost and risk to your business; understand your overall security maturity and the steps you need to take to improve it, and get expert guidance from professionals to build more resilient IT infrastructure and respond quickly to new threats. This is not just another expense for cybersecurity but a vital set of information for you to know whether you are on the right track in protecting your business assets. Benefit from comprehensive analysis and clear recommendations. And ultimately reduce the risk of downtime, data loss, and improve the overall security of your organization An effective cybersecurity measure nowadays does not just comprise of a simple antivirus just like the old times. It now requires a combination of the right strategy, awareness, knowledge, tools, and best practices to effectively fend off cyber criminals away. But as the threat landscape continuously evolves exponentially, we should not just be complacent on a single action taken but always be proactive in looking for ways to protect our business assets effectively.

Rain was a factor in Game 1 of the ALCS between the Rangers and Tigers, but Texas managed to survive two rain delays en route to a 3-2 victory over the Tigers. Now, with a 1-0 ALCS lead, the Rangers look to take a 2-0 lead before the series shifts to Detroit on Tuesday. Derek Holland starts for the Rangers in Game 2. Holland made two appearances in the ALDS against the Rays -- one start, and one relief appearance. Holland started Game 2, pitching five innings, giving up six hits, three runs (one earned), while walking two and striking out two. Holland was credited with the win as the Rangers won 8-6. Holland also made a relief appearance in Game 4 of the ALDS as the Rangers clinched the series over the Rays. Holland came on in relief of Matt Harrison, pitching 1 and 1/3 innings, only surrendering a hit. The start comes on Holland's 25th birthday, as the Ohio native was born on October 9, 1986. Max Scherzer starts for the Tigers, despite making a relief appearance on Thursday in Game 5 of the ALDS against the Yankees. Like Holland, Scherzer made the start in the second game of the ALDS, and was credited with the win. Scherzer pitched six innings in the Bronx, yielding two hits while walking four and striking out five. Scherzer pitched 1 and 1/3rd innings of relief on Thursday, throwing 32 pitches as the Tigers defeated the Yankees to advance to the ALCS. A win for the Rangers would put them in the drivers seat as the series shifts the Detroit after tonight, while a win by the Tigers merely makes it a best-of-five series going forward, with the Tigers holding three home games. First pitch is scheduled for 6:45 p.m. CDT from Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. Televised coverage can be found on FOX.

Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud |"Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud (Part 1)"| |Single by James Brown| |from the album A Soulful Christmas and Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud| |B-side||"Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud (Part 2)"| |Recorded||August 7, 1968, Vox Studios, Los Angeles| |James Brown charting singles chronology| "Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud" is a funk song performed by James Brown, and written with his bandleader Alfred "Pee Wee" Ellis in 1968. It was released as a two-part single which held the number-one spot on the R&B singles chart for six weeks, and peaked at number ten on the Billboard Hot 100. Both parts of the single were later included on James Brown's 1968 album A Soulful Christmas and on his 1969 album sharing the title of the song. The song became an unofficial anthem of the Black Power movement. In the song, Brown addresses racism against Black Americans, and the need for Black empowerment. He proclaims that "we demands a chance to do things for ourself" and that "we're tired of beating our head against the wall and workin' for someone else." The song's call and response chorus is performed by a group of young children, who respond to Brown's command of "Say it loud" with "I'm black and I'm proud!" The song was recorded in a Los Angeles area suburb with about 30 young people from the Watts and Compton neighborhoods. The lyrics "We've been 'buked and we've been scorned/ We've been treated bad, talked about as sure as you're born" in the first verse of the song paraphrase the spiritual I've Been 'Buked. Several other Brown singles from the same era as "Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud", notably "I Don't Want Nobody to Give Me Nothing (Open Up the Door, I'll Get It Myself)", explored similar themes of Black empowerment and self-reliance. The song's opening exhortation, "With your bad self", is an example of linguistic reappropriation, and added a new entry to Brown's long list of nicknames: "His Bad Self." The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame included "Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud" in their 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. In 2004 it was ranked number 305 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. It inspired the title of a VH1 television special and box set, Say It Loud! A Celebration of Black Music in America. "'Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud' was a record that really convinced me to say I was black instead of a negro," remarked Public Enemy's Chuck D. "Back then black folks were called negroes, but James said you can say it loud: that being black is a great thing instead of something you have to apologise for." with the James Brown Orchestra: - Waymond Reed – trumpet - Richard "Kush" Griffith – trumpet - Fred Wesley – trombone - Alfred "Pee Wee" Ellis – alto saxophone - Maceo Parker – tenor saxophone - St. Clair Pinckney – baritone saxophone - Jimmy Nolen – electric guitar - Charles Sherrell – bass - Clyde Stubblefield – drums Other versions and uses Numerous hip hop musicians and groups have sampled "Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud", including Eric B. and Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Full Force, LL Cool J and 2 Live Crew in the states and Akil Ammar for the Mexican underground scene. A few performers have recorded cover versions of the song, including jazz saxophonist Lou Donaldson (on his 1969 album Say It Loud!), reggae singer Bob Marley (in a medley with "Black Progress") and the punk rock band Black Randy and the Metrosquad. Jazz pianist Jaki Byard recites the title phrase at the onset of "Parisian Thoroughfare", the opening track of his album The Jaki Byard Experience. However, the recitation is only audible when the track is played at a high volume. The song is referenced in an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, inspired by Black Power protests, Will, the African-American male lead attempts to hold a protest (ironically, Will and his cousin Carlton are the only black people in the room) to get a popular teacher reinstated, he inspires "Cornflake", a white fellow student, who stands up and shouts passionately "Fight the Power Will! Sing it loud, I'm black and I'm proud", to which Will replies "See, my man Cornflake's got the spirit. He's a little confused but he's got the spirit". "Let's Take it to the Stage" by Funkadelic gives a nod to this song with the lyric "Say it loud, I'm funky and I'm proud." R&B/Rock artist Meshell Ndegeocello covers the song during her live performances. - Whitburn, Joel (2004). Top R&B/Hip-Hop Singles: 1942-2004. Record Research. p. 84. - White, Cliff (1991).

However, the Bitcoin website notes that Bitcoin is not a fiat currency with legal tender status in any jurisdiction. 1 And based on the regulatory and enforcement actions of major governments,.. Let 80% of Americans get vaccinated, the government will speed up its probe against cryptocurrency. There you have it: Cryptocurrency has a future but only if it's backed by the government. You have to understand two important things to understand why the government has the power to destroy Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Despite these advantages, most governments are against the use of cryptocurrencies. In this article, I will discuss some of the reasons why. 1. Loss Of Control By The Government. Governments control fiat currencies. Fiat is a term used to describe the conventional currencies that are issued by governments The Bulgarian government seized more than 200,000 bitcoins from the results of an organized crime crackdown in May 2017, according to reporting by CoinDesk. The sting resulted in the arrest of 23.. So far, it seems that when governments try to ban or restrict Bitcoin, it ends up merely accelerating the adoption of the currency inside their countries. Governments that have failed miserably with their Wars on Drugs may find stopping people from holding something that's invisible, borderless, and teleporting much more difficult But this does not mean that the government should be underestimated, of course it is a threat, it is more than obvious that it will take extreme measures to bury bitcoin and the crypto world, because it can do it, that is the reality John McAfee, the founder of McAfee cybersecurity firm, is one of the well-known celebrities that fully support cryptocurrencies. He is probably one of the earliest crypto adopters, known mostly for.. The more governments move against bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general, the more corrupt and inadequate their economic policies are. Killing bitcoin would essentially mean that the government is threatening crypto users with jailtime. If a lot of people start using crypto, there's a probably a good reason for it Bitcoin is once again in people's minds, as it approaches its 2018 high. I am a fan of cryptocurrencies, but they will inevitably face pressure from governments and financial institutions China's government is starting an all-out war against bitcoin and other digital currencies by banning fundraising through initial coin offerings and shutting down all mainland digital currency.

Astrology Number 7 – Your Life Path Number The astrology number 7 represents the Moon and people born on the 7th, 16th, or 25th of a month have this life path number. These individuals are naturally curious, intelligent, and sociable. Their energy comes from the Sun, the ruling planet in Leo. The first three houses of the zodiac are ruled by the Sun. The 5th house is ruled by the Jupiter, the planetary ruler of the number 1. The number two is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty. A person born on the number two will have a sharp eye for beauty and will be very generous and kind. Although they can be headstrong and can be very patient, they also possess great creative talents. The planetary aspects of this number include the esoteric, practical, and philosophical. The negative traits of this astrology number include self-doubt, fear, shyness, and rudeness. The number three is the most important astrology number. It describes the person’s core self and is based on the birthday numbers of the person. It is similar to a sun sign in astrologers in that it expresses one’s inner desires and personality traits. In addition to the personality, the life path number is also a great indicator of one’s future success. If you’ve always wanted to become a celebrity, then you’d have your life path number to be the key to success. Click here for more information about https://www.simplybuzzes.com/angel-number-3636-meaning/. The number two is also linked to the Moon, the Queen of the Navagraha. The Moon’s influence on numerology means that people born on the number two are likely to be sensitive. They’ll be drawn to people who are easy to get along with and are kind. They’ll be attracted to the awe-inspiring world of fantasy and science. And if you’re looking to find love, the number two is your life path. The number two is the leading number in astrology and is associated with the Moon. It belongs to the Cancer zodiac and is the planetary ruler of Leo. The number two is the most balanced and harmonious of all numbers. However, this planetary combination tends to lead to confusion, jealousy, and fear. In contrast to the other astrology numbers, the number two is the most powerful and dangerous of all. The Moon rules the number two. In vedic jyotish, the Moon is the queen of the navagraha. Hence, the Moon influences the numerology of the number. The Moon is related to softness, tenderness, and caring. This is why people born under the influence of the number two are likely to be soft and tender. But beware, though: the Moon’s influence on astrology numbers is often weaker than the Moon’s, so it is important to use your intuition.

The most recent project for this summer’s class was a filled space, not site specific, Simulacra or Enchantment installation. I worked with the Simulacra idea, a different space within our normal environment. An Enchantment involves changing your normal environment to present an idea. In any case, though, these pieces differ from the Castle Rock day, in that they can be picked up and moved to any place and remain the same. They are not dependent upon their location to be effective. I used the Crucibles again, they are proving quite versatile, and I love getting to know each of them better as the weeks go on. Each of them has dimples and curves that are different from the others. In order to lend context to the idea of Crucible- a ceramic or metal container in which metals or other materials may be melted- a place or situation in which elements interact to produce something new- I used text on a canvas drop cloth to portray the above paraphrase from Merriam-Webster. While the end results seem somewhat PotteryBarn-ish, I learned a ton about display elements, how to welcome an audience to experience your work in a non-traditional way, the pitfalls of psychological boundaries (the edge of fabric is an effective wall to interaction), and how to make intent clear without being blatant. Clean and clear tagging is important. Next week is a Personal installation in which I will work on a small version of my current thesis proposal. Keep your eyes peeled!

The blank page of a new year “This year I will be more thoughtful of my fellow man, exert more effort in each of my endeavors professionally as well as personally, take love wherever I find it, and offer it to everyone who will take it. In this coming year I will seek knowledge from those wiser than me and try to teach those who wish to learn from me. I love being alive and I will be the best man I possibly can –“ ~Duane Allman, January 1, 1969 diary entry (from Please Be With Me, by Galadrielle Allman) Is it already time to change the calendar to a new year? I know that there are still 24 hours in a day, but the days seem to sometimes move so quickly. And now that the new year is approaching, I’m ready for new possibilities and opportunities. A blank page to write new memories and notes. This year I’m struggling to set concrete goals like I have in the past. Sure, I’d like to bike more, hike new trails, travel to new locations, spend more time with family and friends, try new activities and find new adventures. I want my career to continue to be satisfying. I hope love finds me and a man shows up because he chooses me, fell madly in love with me and seeks happiness and adventures (um, this isn’t an invitation for any random guy to show up at my door!). I want to help more people through my advocacy work and volunteering. I plan to keep learning about myself, what makes me happy, who should be in my life. I want to do things and be with people who let me give and receive love and joy, fill my soul with laughter. Maybe those are my featured words of the new year, my trigger words to focus on as I decide where to spend my time and energy – LOVE. JOY. LAUGHTER. Between my cancer, surgeries, my dad’s cancer journey and death, relationships and life’s distractions, there were too many years when those words were not at the forefront of my thoughts, even though I wanted them to be. And then I remembered that I control where those words fit into my life, how those emotions impact my life. Me. I’m in control of my own life. As you are. Everyone deserves happiness, love and laughter. Those emotions should come easily and plentifully in our everyday lives. And if they don’t? Clear signs to reevaluate and make changes. Yes, I think those words will direct my goals for the new year. Does it makes me happy? Does this person bring joy and love to my life? Or drain my energies? Is my heart full of positive emotions? If not, what will I do to change it? Am I finding adventures that challenge me, yet make me laugh and enjoy life as we should? Am I settling because it’s easy and less effort? Or will it bring long term happiness? I labeled 2017 as my Best.Year.Yet. And it was indeed good. I pushed myself out of my comfort zone physically, mentally and emotionally in many circumstances. I discovered being on my bike is an activity I thoroughly enjoy, surprising me and also pushing me to accomplish a lot. My heart opened to new possibilities, welcoming love and joy. I learned to let go of a lot, set boundaries with certain people, practiced saying ‘no’ to getting involved in too many things (still working on mastering this!) and tackled projects that really had no business being dragged out. Is 2018 is the year to top it? Maybe my prince charming will be brave and find me, maybe my adventures will be plenty, maybe success will capture me in new ways, maybe Ruby (my road bike, of course) and I will exceed our fun. Wait a second. I’m going to remove ‘maybe’ from those phrases and state, YES, these things will happen. Positive thoughts bring positive people and outcomes, right? A lot of events this year reminded me of how precious and short life is for all of us. As if I needed reminders as a cancer survivor and daughter who lost her dad to cancer. But sometimes we need ‘wake up calls.’ Reminders to not settle for less than happy, real love and contentment, who and what we truly want. And so with those reminders, saying good bye to special people, knowing friends who went through serious illnesses and surgeries, marking another year without my dad and a monumental milestone as a cancer survivor, I want to embrace all the opportunities this new year, this LIFE brings. I don’t want to ever settle because it’s easier. I don’t want to miss a chance at love because I hesitated. I don’t want to say no to something new because I was nervous or thought it might be too much work. Even if I take a chance at all these things and more, and it doesn’t work, I will always be able to say I tried. I’d rather that than wondering, “what if?” I recently read the book Please Be With Me, a Song for My Father, Duane Allman by his daughter, Galadrielle Allman (read my review). It was an interesting, touching story about a man who was lost to his family, friends and the world much too early in his life. I love his writing from New Year’s Day in 1969, a personal goal for the new year (see above). It’s a reminder that none of us know what tomorrow, next month or next year will bring to us. We need to try to enjoy every day, or at the very least, be grateful for each day. And that, my friends, is the exciting promise of a new year. A blank page. Ready to log those moments filled with courage, adventure, success, happiness, love, laughter. It’s yours to write! What will you choose? How does it start?

CIO Magazine has published an article that cites the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) indicating that the proposed pension legislation “The Rehabilitation for Multiemployer Pensions Act of 2019” (H.R. 397) won’t be enough to protect and preserve all of the plans. In fact, a CBO “study projected that approximately one-quarter of the pension plans that would be eligible for loans through the bill would become insolvent over the next 30 years and would not fully repay their loans. For those plans that do repay their loans, the CBO projects that they will become insolvent within ten years of repayment.” What’s the issue? At present, there are roughly 125 multiemployer pension plans that are defined as critical and declining. With no action, all of these plans are expected to become insolvent within the next 15 years. By providing loans to these struggling plans, we are extending the payment of benefits by 30+ years. If 25% fail to repay the loan in 30-years, so be it. We’ve renegotiated terms on a number of government-funded programs, why should this be any different. The CBO estimated that the Pension Rehabilitation Administration (PRA), which would be established to issue the loans, would only have to provide $39.7 billion in funding. Seems like a drop in the bucket when compared to TARP. Furthermore, they estimated that only $7.9 billion would be returned. I’d love to understand the inputs that they used in creating this analysis. When Cheiron, a leading pension actuary, conducted their analysis on the original 114 plans, only 3 – the Central States, Coal Miners, and the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers – would need extra support from the PBGC. In fact, the remaining 111 plans could meet current benefit payments, interest on the loan, future pension liabilities, and the balloon payment in 30-years while earning only 6.5% on their investments. Given the modest cost of this loan program and the economic benefit of continuing to provide pension payments to nearly 1.3 million American workers, it seems like a no-brainer to me. What is the economic benefit? According to Congressional testimony, the “cost of doing nothing in terms of lost tax revenue and increased social safety net spending is estimated to be between $170.3 billion and $241.3 billion over the 10-year budget window, and between $332 billion and $479 billion over the next 30 years.” So, please explain to me why we, as taxpayers, wouldn’t want to “invest” $39.7 billion in a loan program that has, in my humble opinion, a high degree of success, when not doing so would potentially result in a “loss” of nearly $500 billion in economic activity in the next 30-years? I would hope that ideology isn’t getting in the way of making a rational decision to finally tackle the pension problem that has existed for decades and one that will only get worse with the passage of more time.

It's like the 2018 version of a fairy tail, but San Bernardino police had to use a trail of Doritos to lure a runaway piggy all the way home! Two deputies say they responded to a call regarding a loose pig over the weekend. They quickly found him (her?) and lured it back to its home with some Doritos from their lunch. The entire incident was recorded and put on their social media:

When you’re incorporating quotations in a nonfiction work, there are two ways to do it. Short quotations can be placed inline, in which case you use quotation marks. Longer quotations should be placed in a block format, in which case you don’t need the marks. For example, a short quotation might be something like, “Prose extracts (also known as block quotations) should have double line spacing,” as stated in The Chicago Manual of Style. That kind of quote and reference is sufficient for most general market works. Scholarly works require a more precise citation format, which will vary depending on which style book you use. For a quick primer on the most common styles, see the Purdue Online Writing Lab. In your manuscript, your block quotations will have minimal formatting. Prose extracts (also known as block quotations) should have double line spacing and be indented from the left margin using your word processor’s indent feature. The first line should not have an additional paragraph indent. If there is more than one paragraph within the extract, new paragraphs should have an additional first-line paragraph indent, which can be created using the Tab key or your software’s paragraph indention feature. Use hard returns (i.e., the Enter key) only at the end of the extract and after any paragraphs within the extract. (Chicago, 2.18) The page designer will later dress the block quotation up with perhaps different indenting, line spacing, or spacing before and after. Quotations in fiction If a character in a novel is thinking about something she’s read, it’s usually put in plain type and paraphrased, because we rarely remember things verbatim. Blayse remembered reading something in the Chicago manual about not indenting the first paragraph of a block quotation. But on the off chance that your character is as compulsive as Blayse and has memorized a passage, it could be rendered in italics. She formatted an indent at the beginning of the second paragraph, because the style book said new paragraphs should have an additional first-line paragraph indent. If the character is reading or reciting the passage aloud to another person, you have a quotation within a quotation, which calls for those single quotation marks we talked about before. “Listen,” Blayse said, “It’s right here in the style book. ‘The first line should not have an additional paragraph indent.’ No indent.” Chicago has more to say about block quotations, but those are the basics.

The Black man shot and killed by an Orange County sheriff’s deputy had “grabbed one of the deputies’ weapons” during a physical altercation in San Clemente, officials said Thursday. Preliminary findings show one deputy shot twice, Orange County Sheriff Don Barnes said during a news conference. The two deputies approached 42-year-old Kurt Andras Reinhold outside Hotel Miramar, at 2222 S. El Camino Real, at about 1:12 p.m. Wednesday and a scuffle broke out. “During the physical altercation, Mr. Reinhold grabbed one of the deputies’ weapons and appears to have tried to bring it out of the holster,” Barnes said. “It’s not clear from the video if Mr. Reinhold was able to completely unholster the weapon — that will be part of the Orange County District Attorney’s Office investigation.” The Sheriff’s Department released a still from surveillance video from the hotel that appears to show Reinhold’s hand near or on a deputy’s holster while he and the deputies were struggling on the ground. “When the video is released, you’ll see it was it was a significant struggle with Mr. Reinhold that went on for some time, and the deputy did state four different times, ‘he’s got my gun,’ on four separate occasions — that was confirmed with at least one video I saw that was independently provided by a witness, where he acknowledged hearing the deputy say ‘he’s got my gun,'” Barnes said. The Sheriff’s Department had previously said the shooting happened roughly three minutes after deputies made contact with the man. At one point during the scuffle, the man appeared to be on top of the deputies while the second was on top of him on the side of the road as cars drove past, video obtained by KTLA shows. The sheriff declined to comment on whether the use of force was justified, saying the investigation is still ongoing and he doesn’t believe the deputies involved had yet given their statements. The deputies have been placed on leave, as is customary for critical incidents, and they will both be evaluated before they return to work, the sheriff said. The two deputies, an eight-year veteran and a 13-year veteran, were both part of the department’s 25-member homeless outreach team. The sheriff did not provide information on why the two deputies initially made contact with Reinhold, but explained that their job is “to engage with and offer services to those members of our community who are experiencing homelessness.” “The manner in which they contacted him will be part of the district attorney’s investigation,” Barnes said. The deputies’ training includes crisis intervention training and deescalation, according to the sheriff. Reinhold had been in the area for about a month and had other interactions with deputies working in the city of San Clemente as part of the homeless outreach team, according to the department. “We do know that deputies had offered services to Reinhold previously, but he was not receptive of those offers,” Barnes said. Protests broke out in San Clemente Thursday in the wake of the shooting, one that comes at a time of national unrest over police violence. Five people were arrested during the protests in San Clemente. Those in custody were suspected of disturbing the peace and not following directives of law enforcement personnel. One arrest was for vandalism of a police car, Barnes said. With more protests planned for the evening, the San Clemente City Council called an emergency meeting and voted 3-1 to declare a curfew in certain areas from 9 p.m. Thursday to 6 a.m. Friday. The areas affected include the Pier Bowl, Avenida Del Mar and the downtown core, and north and south El Camino Real. Councilman Chris Hamm said “the primary focus is to protect and provide safety to businesses in the community.” But Councilwoman Laura Ferguson, who cast the sole dissenting vote, said at least one protest had already been canceled and the intel presented to her by the Sheriff’s Department did not demonstrate any gatherings would present a danger to life or property. “I don’t believe it’s needed at this time,” she said “I certainly want to continue to support the freedoms and liberties of people in our town, free to roam at any time of the day or night.” The council members will meet again Friday to vote an whether an extension of the curfew is warranted.

Quantum-limited Measurement Method for Nanosensors (PhysOrg.com) -- (PhysOrg.com) -- A team of scientists from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and the Ludwig Maximilians University have succeeded in applying a novel optical method to nano-mechanical oscillators. New fabrication techniques have enabled the development of on-chip mechanical elements whose dimensions are on the nanometer scale. Their application, however, has been limited by the lack of sufficiently sensitive techniques for measuring the motion of these tiny devices. A team of scientists around Tobias Kippenberg from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) in Garching and Jörg Kotthaus from the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich (LMU) has now successfully developed a novel method. (Nature Physics, October 11th, 2009, Advance Online Publication) On-chip glass cylinders with diameters around 50 microns which are capable of storing light played a key role in the study. The scientists could show that the optical near-field, that is the light-field that is leaking out of the glass cylinders, can be used as actuator and sensitive probe for nanomechanical oscillators. This enables measurements that are only limited by the fundamental quantum fluctuations of light. Thereby, the novel technique for the first time allows the measurement of sensitivities at the level of the quantum mechanical zero-point fluctuations of the nano-oscillators which is of great interest for fundamental research. Applications such as single-atom or single-charge detection by atomic or magnetic force microscopy may also benefit from the extremely low-noise method with a noise background at the level of the standard quantum-limit. Nanomechanical oscillators are ideal candidates for studying the quantum limits of mechanical motion in an experimental setting. Moreover, they are the basis for a variety of precision measurements. Significant attention has been devoted to developing sensitive readout techniques for motion over the past decade. Optical methods have thereby achieved the best results. However, these have been limited to objects which are larger than the wavelength. Techniques based on electron flow which are applicable to nanoscale objects have so far reached only limited precision. The MPQ and LMU physicists have now for the first time achieved quantum limited measurements of nanomechanical oscillators by applying a novel optical method. Optical techniques have so far suffered from the fact that diffraction losses occur as soon as sub-wavelength objects are being looked at. In the present experiment this problem is bypassed by using optical near-fields. A key element is a cylindrical resonator made out of glass with a diameter of approximately 50 microns. The microtoroid can store light if it exhibits the right wavelength, that is, if the toroid’s optical circumference is an integer multiple of the wavelength. A small portion of the stored light, however, the so-called optical near-field, leaks out of the resonator and can be used as a probe for the nanomechanical oscillators (see Figure). These are strained silicon nitride strings which have typical cross-sections of 100 by 500 nanometres and are 15-40 microns long (tht nanostrings and microtoroids were fabricated in the clean rooms of Jörg Kotthaus at LMU and at the Eidgenössischen Technischen Hochschule Lausanne). If the nanostrings are brought in close proximity to the toroid, that is into its near-field which extends a few hundred nanometres from its surface, both can interact with each other. The nanostrings act thereby as a dielectric and locally change the refractive index seen by the light field. This leads to a change of the toroid’s optical circumference and thus of the toroid’s resonance frequency. The optical resonance frequency shift caused by a single nanostring is so large that even its Brownian motion has a strong and easily measureable influence. This allows highly-sensitive measurements of the strings’ motion. The sensitivity to changes in the distance between string and toroid is thereby as small as the quantum-mechanical zero-point fluctuations of the nanostring which are expected at absolute zero temperature and equal to the standard quantum-limit. Besides the high sensitivity to the motion of nanoscale objects there is another important aspect of the work, Georg Anetsberger, PhD student in Tobias Kippenberg’s group, emphasizes. Equally important is the first experimental demonstration that also nanoscale objects can directly be manipulated by radiation pressure, e.g. cooled down or driven into oscillation. "We can observe that the dipole force of the optical near-field leads to dynamical back action which can drive the nanostrings into coherent, laser-like oscillations." The employed method can in principle be applied to all dielectric nanomechanical oscillators which could further foster their use as ultra-sensitive sensors. Once more, Tobias Kippenberg says, the versatility of microtoroids which have been the focus of his research for a few years now becomes evident. "We have developed an experimental platform which could greatly broaden the possible applications of nanomechanical oscillators. Moreover it constitutes an interface which allows the interaction of photons and phonons in such a way that quantum mechanical effects could become measureable even at room temperature."

Taking a look at Tampa Bay Rays’ newest addition, Yoshitomo Tsutsugo’s past and his future. Yoshitomo Tsutsugo has always dreamed of being a Major Leaguer. He grew up watching Japanese stars, Ichiro Suzuki and Hideki Matsui excel in the Major Leagues, now he gets a chance to follow in their footsteps. "“I’ve dreamed of playing in the majors since before I turned pro, since I was a child,”" Tsutsugo made a trip to America during the postseason and was in attendance during one of the ALCS games between the New York Yankees and the Houston Astros. Now that he’s signed with the Rays, we hope he’ll be playing in one of those games in 2020. Yoshitomo Tsutsugo has averaged 34.75 homers per season over the past four years. The 28-year-old left-handed hitter has proven himself as one of Nippon Professional Baseball’s top offensive weapons with a career .382 OBP and a homer every 13.89 at-bats over the past four seasons. Tsutsugo has spent the past ten seasons playing for the Yokohama BayStars. In 2011 he got his first extended look in Yokahama, playing in 40 games. He hit .241 and registered an OBP of .306 that season. However, even at 19-years-old, the kid still gave Yokohama a glimpse of what was to come as he slugged .476. His 2012 season didn’t get a lot better as he slashed .218/.309/.352 with 10 HRs in 108 games. The following season only saw him play in 23 games. in 2014 he became a regular player and never looked back. Over the course of his career, he has slugged at a .528 clip. Between 2015-2019 he would make five All-Star games. He is the youngest player in BayStars’ history to reach 200 home runs. How does this 28-year-old slugger fit the Rays’ offseason needs?

Lockheed Martin announced on Thursday their intentions to deliver a 60 kW beam combined fiber laser to the U.S. Army in the coming months. The military itself has been testing vehicle-mounted laser weapons with promising results. Space and Missile Defense Command said on Friday its Mobile Expeditionary High Energy Laser 2.0 – or MEHEL 2.0 for short – had outperformed the expectations of army officials in real-world tests in New Mexico. Both weapons are landmark developments in the field of laser-based weaponry. This technology has been the subject of extensive research for its potential use in armed conflict for its low cost, high accuracy, and effectiveness in disabling remote targets. Lockheed Martin has developed the most powerful laser to date The weapon maker Lockheed Martin has been working closely with the U.S. Army divisions in charge of developing laser technology. Together, they have created what is known as a combined fiber laser system capable of shooting 60 kW beams, the most powerful ever registered for military use. During tests earlier this month, the weapon produced a record-breaking 58 kW beam. Lockheed Martin’s system is not only innovative for its potential destructive power but also for its scalability and cost-effectiveness. What the model the company will deliver to the U.S. Army is, theoretically, easily expandable by adding more modules. It is a combined fiber laser system precisely because it comprises multiple fiber-optic lasers that work together to produce beams that can take down communication systems and disable engines remotely in record time. Lasers travel at the speed of light and are invisible to the human eye. Both the Army’s and the weapon maker’s systems rely on electricity to generate these highly destructive rays. The Army is making more and more innovative weapons “WE HAVE SHOWN THAT A POWERFUL DIRECTED LASER IS NOW SUFFICIENTLY LIGHTWEIGHT, LOW VOLUME, AND RELIABLE ENOUGH TO BE DEPLOYED ON TACTICAL VEHICLES FOR DEFENSIVE APPLICATIONS ON LAND, AT SEA AND IN THE AIR,” said Army laser specialist Robert Afzal. Although it only delivers a fraction of the power of Lockheed Martin’s weapon, the 5 kW MEHEL 2.0 also represents a major milestone for the military in developing mobile laser systems. The portability of this turret gun makes it particularly useful for army vehicles like trucks, tanks, and even ships. The U.S. already has a similar weapon onboard some ships currently at sea. What’s more, it packs a punch strong enough to take down drones, helicopters, and other military aircraft. Using a radar system, the MEHEL 2.0 can even be automated to shoot at targets that come up within range. Source: Lockheed Martin

As mentioned earlier, these blurry images can be corrected starting with Photos 1.4 for Mac or later. How to Add a location to Image in Photos for OS X You can add locations to single images or multiple images, depending on what you select in the Photos application: - Open the Photos application and double-click on the photo you want to add the location to (alternatively, you can select multiple images from the Album or view Photos if you want to apply that location to all the images o yan). - Click on (i) button in the photos menu bar to play up picture viewer window. - Click on “Send a location” and start typing the location name – this uses a location search based on the Maps application to search * and assign locations, so select the corresponding location from the search and hit “Back” to assign that position to the image when satisfied. Guide about How to Add a Location to Photos in Photos app for Mac In this guide, we told you about the How to Add a Location to Photos in Photos app for Mac; please read all steps above so that you understand How to Add a Location to Photos in Photos app for Mac in case if you need any assistance from us, then contact us.

Rainbow Bridge Pet Crematory, Yorktown, NY I’m so glad I bought your equipment your service department and team of experts are second to none please tell everyone to be safe. Katie Mae Garner Companion Cremation Services Hi Carly, Just wanted to let you know that I put a check in the mail today to begin paying for our remaining balance that will be due for our repairs. I know we haven’t been invoiced yet, I just wanted to get a jump start on it. Also wanted to let you know how extremely pleased we were with the service we received both prior to and during our retort repair process. The technicians were super nice and professional and Matt really taught us some valuable things and answered our questions well. We couldn’t be happier. Thanks Again. Mr. Stan Spitler I can’t imagine there’s a better cremator, or a more service-oriented company. Mr. Tim Koch Metro First Call / Savage, MN Hi Guys! Tim at Metro First Call in Minnesota here. Wanted to let you know that we cremated our largest body to date last week. A 6’1”, 703 pound, embalmed male. Our Classic-XCEL is an awesome machine. Sec-Tres. / Ivy Hill Cemetery Co. Philadelphia, PA Good Morning Randy and John, I just wanted to say Thank You for making Ivy Hill seem like we are your only client. Nothing seems to be a problem for you. You have given us service within 24 hrs. when needed,. It is evident that US Cremation Equipment and Ivy Hill have two common goals. We strive for efficiency and service to our clients. It is nice to work with a company that shares the same values. John Oakey & Son Funeral Home / Salem, VA Good morning Angela, Just wanted to thank you and US Cremation Equipment for sending Chris out yesterday. It was very refreshing to have someone with exceptional knowledge of our equipment and someone who actually cares about our machine and wants to get it right! He did an excellent job getting machine tuned up as well as explaining issues that need addressed in the near future. Thanks again and please let Chris know that we truly appreciated his professionalism and hard work he put in yesterday. Looking forward to working with US Cremation Equipment in the near future! BIG Thanks again to everyone for their professionalism in helping us to get up and running. You and your team have been fantastic to work with. Juan J. Crespo Hill Thank you very much, we also appreciate working with U.S. Cremation Equipment and the way you and [your staff] are always easy to contact and quick to respond. Have a nice day. We shopped around with other manufacturers and U.S. Cremation was our choice. It’s a great machine. The service technicians are always prompt and thorough. Whenever we have questions, U.S. Cremation has the answers. Everyone has done an outstanding job for us, from truly listening to our needs to their round-the-clock availability. We have cell phone numbers, even for people at the top. They pointed out the features of their unit and never criticized their competitors’ products. They even encouraged me to check the competition. I did, but no one came close in expertise, support and customer service. I have never done business with a better company. After reviewing other equipment and examining the ‘Classic’, the choice was clear…the equipment is excellent, easy to operate and the after-sale service doesn’t end with the sale. John J. Buettgen Thank you for upgrading the product. Works without a problem It is a pleasure to do business with a company that treats you like a customer (and friend) instead of a number. Keep up the good work. With service like this, you can most certainly be assured that I am hooked. I will be using you guys for all my service needs. And, when it comes time for another machine it will be from U.S. Cremation. J. Brent Lyerly Easy to operate state-of-the-art machine. Service and staff have and continue to be GREAT Kevin R. Marcy Their service is like no other I have experienced in this industry and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase an animal or human retort. Not only are their products second to none, but their service is what really sets them apart. In fact, I will be purchasing another machine from them in the near future. Overall I love the machine. In less than 4 months we have done 60 cremations without a problem.

The Woodside Hotel, Doune – A Whisky Boy Visit Yesterday (Saturday, 27th July) Jim with his wife Jacqueline decided to go a drive for the afternoon and headed out towards Callander, on our way we popped into the the Deanston Distillery, which is a fine place to stop of for a great tour or a light refreshment in their Bothy. After visiting the Antique centre just outside Doune we got a little peckish and decided to pop into The Woodside Hotel for a little pub lunch. We have on many occasions passed this hotel but never gone in. We found it to be very welcoming and quite busy with all enjoying some drinks and lunch. The big surprise to Jim was the price of their malts :- Together with a couple of Irish :- A nice we selection and the best part is, they are poured in a 35 ml measure and all are £3.00 each, now that is a good deal. So a great wee hotel, lovely pub food, exceptionally courteous and helpful staff, fine ales and a great deal on your wee dram. So, this Whisky Boy will certainly visit again, soon.

ANN ARBOR, MICH.: Tree Town theatre newcomer Theatre Nova has announced its first season. The company, which focuses on playwrights and playwriting, will open with six plays, two of which will be world premieres. “The birth of Theatre Nova is a dream come true for me,” said Carla Milarch, Theatre Nova’s artistic director, in a statement. “The city’s remarkable cultural vibrancy makes it possible to have a theatre specifically focused on new plays and new voices, while at the same time, our mode of working from the playwright’s perspective and our selection of adventurous plays will complement and deepen the theatre scene.” The season opens with the first independent production of Jonathan Tolins’ Buyer and Cellar (March 6–29), about an unemployed actor who takes a job manning a shopping mall in Barbra Streisand’s basement. Theatre Nova producing director Daniel C. Walker directs. Next is the Michigan premiere of I and You (May 1–17) by Lauren Gunderson, about two high school students who attempt to solve the mysteries of Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass the night before their assignment is due. The show will star Katie Terpstra and Matthew Webb, and will be directed by David Wolber. The season continues with George Brant’s Grounded (June 12–18), a one-woman drama in which a fighter pilot discovers she is pregnant, and is then reassigned to fight military drones from a trailer in Las Vegas. Phil Powers directs. The world premiere of Irrational (July 24-Aug. 16), a new musical by David Wells and R. MacKenzie Lewis, follows. This rock musical set in ancient Greece was inspired by the true story of Pythagoras and his followers, who believed that divinity was found in ratios. The show will feature 2014 Wilde Award Winners for “Best Performance in a Musical” Steve DeBruyne and Mahalia Greenway, along with Sebastian Gerstner, Courtney Riddle and Brian Thibault. Milarch will direct. The fifth show in the season, yet to be announced, will run July 24–Aug. 16. Closing out the season will be a new show developed by the Theatre Nova Ensemble, An Almost British Christmas (Nov. 27–Dec. 20). When two Americans attempt a British pantomime using American iconography and traditions, the result is a panto filled with the traditional details mixed with a list of local celebrity appearances and pop culture references. Theatre Nova bills itself as Michigan’s only theatre exclusively devoted to new plays. Support American Theatre: a just and thriving theatre ecology begins with information for all.

The master of remakes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (despite never directing one of his own), Rob Zombie is bringing his dusty touch to 1313 Mockingbird Lane. Announcing his latest film on Instagram earlier today, Zombie says his next movie will be a reboot of the 60s horror-infused sitcom The Munsters. “Attention Boils and Ghouls!” Zombie wrote on Instagram. “The rumors are true! My next film project will be the one I’ve been chasing for 20 years! The Munsters! Stay tuned for exciting details as things progress!” Like most people who liked seeing Frankenstein on TV every week, Zombie is a huge fan of The Munsters. In addition to “chasing” this movie for 20 years, Howard Stern told listeners in 2010 that Zombie and Stern sat around watching The Munsters during a vacation. Stern recalled Zombie saying that he saw each episode at least “17 times.” Maybe he’s the one to answer that question that’s been rattling around in our (and Apu’s) head for decades: If Eddie’s mother is a vampire and his dad is a Frankenstein, why is he a werewolf? Zombie’s been laying low for the last few years, at least when it comes to his movie career. Following the release and subsequent box office returns of Halloween II, Zombie dug his heels into his original concepts, including the late Devil’s Rejects sequel 3 From Hell. All failed to make much of a dent, with critics panning and audiences ignoring (or, more likely, not knowing they existed—his last film to open in more than 360 theaters was Halloween II). The former White Zombie frontman isn’t the first to take a stab at rebooting America’s second family of monsters (sorry, the Addams Family are still number one—you can complain in the comments). Between 1980 and 2012, several Munster sequels, reboots, and remakes aired, and they all have incredible casts. The original family, including Fred Gwynne, Al Lewis, and Yvonne De Carlo, donned the makeup for 1981’s The Munsters’ Revenge. Years later, character actor extraordinaire John Schuck popped a couple of bolts his neck to play Herman Munster against Lee Merriweather’s Lily for The Munsters Today. The last reboot attempt came about in 2012, with Hannibal mastermind Bryan Fuller’s Mockingbird Lane. Originally planned as a TV series, the pilot aired as a made-for-TV movie starring, get this, Jerry O’Connell as Herman and Eddie Izzard as Grandpa (not bad!). Neither Zombie nor the studio announced any other details. Still, we feel that it’s fair to assume that Zombie’s wife Sherri Moon will play either Lily or Marylin (or, fuck it, why not both?). Regardless, for the love of God, keep Andy Serkis away from the Munsters’ pet dragon Spot.

The holy name of Krsna is transcendentally blissful. It bestows all spiritual benedictions, for it is Krsna Himself, the reservior of all pleasure. Krsna's name is complete, and it is the form of all transcendental experience. It is not a material name under any condition, and it is no less powerful than Krsna Himself. Since Krsna's name is not contaminated by the material qualities, there is no question of its begin involved with maya [illusion]. Krsna's name is always liberated and spiritual; it is never conditioned by the laws of material nature. This is because the name of Krsna and Krsna himself are identical." – Padma Purana Because God, or Krsna, is unlimited, the glories of His holy name are innumerable. The verse at left explains that chanting God's name is a genuine spiritual experience. Because God and His name are identical, the name of God is not a mundane sound vibration. Therefore, to call sincerely on Krsna's divine name gives us immediate association with Him, the Supreme Pure, and that association purifies our hearts. It's no wonder, then, that all the world's greatest scriptures emphasize the importance of praising thr holy name of the Lord.

In March we did our first sessions with Crucial Crew – a safety scheme for year 6 children, to prepare them for the transition to secondary school. Scenarios include safety on roads, railways, open water, electricity and a lot more. Children visit each scenario in groups of 6-8 for a quick but intense 10 minute interactive presentation. All the children were sent home with a safety ‘goodie-bag’ which included a Billy’s Wish branded projector torch pen and a safety promise card (a year 6 appropriate version of our anti-weapons pledge). Along with school visits and a workshop at Watford Football Academy, we spoke to over 1000 children from around 25 in a two week period in the middle of March! Secondary School Visits A lot of time is spent preparing for school visits: talking to teachers, making sure we deliver the right content for the schools’ needs. In the summer term, as well as schools who are delivering our lessons, we addressed over 500 secondary school children. This included two hour workshops with year 7 and year 8 pupils at Longdean, assemblies in Kings Langley School and Ashlyns School and meeting with year 8 pupils at Adeyfield school as part of their active citizenship project. Our assembly at Ashlyns was prompted by Berkhamstead Youth Town Council who wanted to support the young people of their town in the wake of recent knife crime. The focus was on peer pressure and how to stay safe. We were well aware that this was a sensitive time for the school and were relieved when feedback from the teachers was that we had pitched the message at the right level for this group of children at this point in time. The assembly at Kings Langley was, in contrast, incredibly hard hitting. We had a guest speaker: leading trauma surgeon, Martin Griffiths. His talk was a no holds barred session, no one present can have been left in any doubt about the devastating effects of carrying and using knives. Some of the pupils and staff were visibly affected, but the feedback on social media was very positive. Parents reported that their children had come home and they had been able to talk frankly about what they had heard and seen.

(Argentinian, b. 1961) Acrylic and oil on canvas Overall: 240 x 189.8 cm (94 1/2 x 74 3/4 in.) Gift of the Contemporary Art Society on the occasion of its 40th anniversary 2000.21 © Guillermo Kuitca, Courtesy Sperone Westwater, New York Argentinian artist Guillermo Kuitca uses familiar symbolism that he removes from its context and abstracts to discourage literal interpretation. Here, a twisted pattern of white, spiky lines evokes a child’s scribble, resembling an arbitrary internal circuit with many possible readings. Kuitca uses references to religious symbols like the Christian Crown of Thorns throughout his work, in this case reimagining the circular “crown” as a chaotic tangle of vines. He says, “I like the idea of playing with a kind of religious chaos. As if religion were to be seen as the greatest state of confusion of the human race.” The information about this object, including provenance information, is based on historic information and may not be currently accurate or complete.

What's a better Present then being alone with your girlfriend on your birthday playing truth of dare? Well keep this in mind next time you have that thought. I'm a bit of a prankster to my girl Tori and she hates it. But she's so innocent and gullible I can't help, but prank her. We were at her parents' house on my 18th birthday in her room watching TV and she says to me "Babe you wanna play truth or dare?" I said: "What are you 14?"She replied "No! I think you're just chicken." Now I couldn't just let her win so I said: "Sure, come on let's play." It started off with just a few simple questions because we both did truths like do you love me and little things like that. I started getting bored with it and said dare. I should have never said it. She sat and thought about it and with an evil little grin she said: "okay my parents are not home so I got a Great dare for you." So my mind went straight to the gutter, I mean what guys mind wouldn't right. I said: "What's this big bad dare you got in your pretty little mind?" She looked me dead in my eye and said: "You gotta run around the entire house naked!" I thought okay that's easy, I mean her parents had a huge house, but it wouldn't take long to run around inside. And the worst that could happen is that her parents show up and then I gotta explain we were just playing truth or dare. So I said: "Alright the basement too?" She smiled again and said: "no." Then she laughed and I asked what was funny? She said: "The entire outside of the house!" I told myself don't be a sissy just do it. So I said: "Okay ill do it." I got naked went outside and darted around the entire house as quick as I could, but as I opened the front door to get in there stood half of Tori's family standing in the living room. I ran upstairs and got dressed as quick as I could. She had really got me, when I came down she was holding a cake smiling and the cake read "Happy 18th DON'T END UP IN YOUR B-DAY SUIT" I had never been that embarrassed or pranked that bad in my whole life.

Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness may have lost director Scott Derrickson, but Marvel has managed to nab Spider-Man director Sam Raimi to take on the helm. A lot of people have been pointing out that Raimi had somewhat ‘predicted’ his involvement with the Doctor Strange reference in Spider-Man 2, and Raimi has come out to comment on it. Talking to ComingSoon, Raimi explains: “I loved Doctor Strange as a kid, but he was always after Spider-Man and Batman for me, he was probably at number five for me of great comic book characters… He was so original, but when we had that moment in Spider-Man 2 I had no idea that we would ever be making a Doctor Strange movie, so it was really funny to me that coincidentally that line was in the movie. I gotta say I wish we had the foresight to know that I was going to be involved in the project.” We don’t know exactly why Derrickson left the project, but word was going around that it had something to do with him wanting to turn the film into a horror movie. We don’t know what Raimi has planned for the film, but I’m hoping that he has a more mature approach. For all my love of his Spider-Man movies, they’ve admittedly aged when compared to these more modern superhero takes. Production may have been halted for Marvel Studios right now, but hopefully they can get back to work sometime in June. Then again, unless things start to blow over next month, we could be looking at more months of quarantine down the line. Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness is set for a release on Nov. 5, 2021.

G’day, folks! Dianne here from Go WalkAbout Travel, your travel expert for Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific Islands. I recently had a client ask me, “Where do I go wine tasting in New Zealand? What’s the best way to do it?” To answer, I thought I’d write a blog post so that all of you can learn about the best Wine Regions in New Zealand. Wine Regions in New Zealand: Orientation First, learn the lingo. Locals like to shorten things, and wines are no exception. Cabernet Sauvignon becomes “Cab Sav” and Sauvignon Blanc (white wine) becomes “Sav Blanc.” Second, combinations of grapes are common in New Zealand, so don’t be surprised to see a Cab Sav Merlot with a bit of Burgundy and Bordeaux mixed in as well. Next, learn where the wine trail is. Most NZ wines are produced along a line that travels between Napier on the East coast of the North Island, in a southwesterly direction towards Wellington, and then across the water to the top of the South Island. By no means is this the only part of New Zealand that produces wine — the world wines most southerly grape-growing region is near Queenstown. However, due to its specialized climate, the “wine trail” produces the most. New Zealand has been making wine since the early 1800s. Grapes grow well there, thanks to a temperate, maritime climate where you’re never more than 120 kilometers (75 miles) from the ocean. The most well-known grapes in New Zealand are Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. However, there are plenty more varietals than just those two. No matter where or what you taste though, you may notice that New Zealanders especially enjoy very dry wines, even in varietals that are sweet elsewhere around the world. A New Zealand Riesling, for example, tastes quite dry. Okay, now that we’ve learned some of the basics, it’s time to learn the three most popular places to taste wine in New Zealand! Marlborough Wine Region in New Zealand: By far, Marlborough produces more wine for international export than anywhere else in the country. So if you’ve tasted New Zealand wine styles at home, then you’ve probably had a bottle from Marlborough. Marlborough is in the Northeast corner of the South Island. It is where the ferries to and from the North Island arrive and depart. It is also home to the beautiful Marlborough Sounds, with their delicious green shell mussels and calm, peaceful inlets. The largest town in the region is Blenheim, and many of the accommodations are in and around town. However, there are some truly special resorts out in the Sounds that can arrange wine tastings for the day, if you wish! The Marlborough region put New Zealand wines on the map, for its ideal conditions to grow Sauvignon Blanc grapes. It is cool, sunny, and relatively dry, with very fertile soil. Some of the best and most exciting Sauvignon Blancs in the world are produced here, along with good Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and others that are beginning to gain in popularity. There are several wine and food festivals in Marlborough each year, though the Marlborough Food & Wine Festival is New Zealand’s oldest and arguably biggest. One of our favorite ways to visit Marlborough is to do a half-day wine tasting tour in the morning, and then launch out into the Marlborough Sounds for an afternoon cruise to taste local seafood paired with perfect local wines. This way, you get the best of both land and sea! Hawke’s Bay Wine Region in New Zealand: Hawke’s Bay is New Zealand’s second-largest wine region, after Marlborough. It’s located on the North Island, cutting a large backward “C” out of the Eastern shoreline. The biggest town, Napier, is home to colorful art deco architecture, thanks to a devastating earthquake in the 1920s that caused the town to be rebuilt. The area is also home to Cape Kidnappers, which is a jaw-droppingly gorgeous golf course and luxury lodge. Hawke’s Bay has been producing wine since the mid-1800s and has earned an excellent international reputation for both white and red wines. The diversity here sets it apart. You’ll find excellent Bordeaux blends and Chardonnay, as well as Syrah, dessert wines, and everything in between. Its landscape allows for its variety, with good sun, moderate rainfall, plains, and hillsides. Like Marlborough, there is enough of a food and wine culture here to support lots of festivals, like the Food and Wine Classic held twice a year. Wine touring is the most popular tourist activity in Hawke’s Bay for our clients. There are so many varieties here, that true wine lovers find themselves in heaven. Plus, there are welcoming cellar doors at not just large internationally-renowned wineries, but also at tiny family-owned ones. Small group or private tours are best, and you can even bike from place to place! Central Otago Wine Region in New Zealand: Just east of the adventure capital of New Zealand, Queenstown, you’ll find the Central Otago Wine Region. This is the most southerly wine region in the world. Easily visited as a half-day or full-day tour from Queenstown, Central Otago’s wines have only gotten tastier as Queenstown has grown in popularity. Red wines dominate the scene here, especially Pinot Noir. In fact, some of the best Pinot Noirs in the world come from Central Otago. The terrain here is mountainous, and the landscape is stunning. You’re nestled within the foothills of the Southern Alps, with rushing rivers and snow-capped peaks. The vines here get the best views in New Zealand! Our clients love wine touring in Central Otago because it’s so close to so many of the other attractions they want to see and do in New Zealand. The other two places in this blog are lots of fun with more to do than just wine, but nowhere can beat Queenstown in terms of the number and variety of activities! Different Wine Regions in New Zealand: In addition to these three popular wine industry regions, there are several other locations around New Zealand that produce world-class wine. It’s tough to escape the vines no matter where you go! Here are the most special areas, traveling from North to South: - Waiheke Island near Auckland - Waikato and Bay of Plenty near Rotorua - Gisborne on the East Cape - Hawke’s Bay - Wairarapa and Martinborough, outside Wellington - Canterbury and Waipara, outside Christchurch - Central Otago How to tour wineries in New Zealand? One of the great things about wine touring in New Zealand is that there are so many different ways to do it. You can visit many of the winemakers all on your own, driving right up to the cellar door! Or consider renting bicycles, since drunk driving is just as illegal in New Zealand as it is at home. Bicycling is a great way to visit wineries since even the biggest wine-growing regions aren’t all that big. You can easily get from one vineyard to the next without much hassle, especially in Hawke’s Bay and Marlborough where the roads are less hilly. One fantastic thing about International wine tasting in a country that’s so remote is that many cellar doors in New Zealand still don’t charge for tastings. They don’t even require that you buy any bottles most of the time (this isn’t Napa, after all!) Just make sure, if you’re going on your own, that you plan your route in advance to ensure that the wineries you like have open cellar doors when you want to go. Of course, our most recommended way to go wine touring in a New Zealand vineyard is by small group tour or private guide. That way, not only does someone else handle all the driving, but you also get insider access to places you wouldn’t be able to visit on your own and an expert to explain what you’re tasting. In most places, you can combine a half-day New Zealand wine tour with something else, like a boat cruise in Marlborough or art galleries and Maori culture in Hawke’s Bay. Hawke’s Bay even offers wine tours by bike with a guide. So however you like to have your grape variety, whether paired with local seafood or off the back of a bicycle, New Zealand has a way for you to do it. Time to stop hesitating… contact us to start planning your trip to visit the diverse regions in New Zealand!

Hello Everyone, this is KDT and today were gonna be seeing about an important and dangerous virus in Cyber Crime. It is RansomWare To cover all the details and Characters of Ransomware, im gonna be dividing it into several sub Headings. So, lets get started. There is also a video walkthrough of this Article. If you prefer it, you can check it out. Ransomware is a dangerous malware which is used in attacking the Victims in many Cyber Attacks. It is a unique Malware because once it is entered into the victim’s Machine, there’s no way or very less possibility of removing it without any cost. Once Ransomware got into the Victim’s machine it encrypts all the documents and files in it and asks for money payment for each file to get released. If we didn’t pay the amount specified by the Malware, it will delete all the files in our system. RANSOMWARE ATTACK METHOD Once Ransomware gets into your device, it searches for all the files, folders and documents in your device and it also searches the shared files you had synced with cloud based servers and individually encrypts them all. Once it has finished all the Encryption work, a Ransom note appears in your screen. See the Screenshot Reference below. Also when a Ransomware attacks happen, when you may try to open your files, you may notice that some of them now have weird extensions. Others may have weird icons. When you try to open them, you’ll get an error message. No matter what you try to do, you won’t be able to get the file to open. If it’s a shared file, it is even worse that any recipient you shared also may not be able to open the file or do any work with that file. SOLUTION FOR RANSOMWARE ATTACK There are only two ways you can get your files back and literally there are no other possibilities. - Try restoring from backup - Pay the Ransom Amount Restoring from backup is pretty easy and the best solution to Ransomware attacks. If you don’t have a backup, then your’e in a trouble. You have to pay the Ransom Amount the Malware asks. The ransomware amount varies, nowadays its a few hundred bucks. But there are also cases seen by the FBI that a ransomware asks about $5000 dollars. Unfortunately it is nearly impossible to crack the encryption and if that’s the case, then you might be in a situation to pay the Ransom Amount. According to a survey of 300 experts, 19% of victims that paid the ransom didn’t get their files back. Employee education: Special training that teaches the employees about Ransomware and about the methods such as phishing and also about legitimate sources Spam filters & firewalls: A strong filtering system that prevents the majority of malware Emails from reaching the inboxes. Application restrictions: Strict controls over the actions performed by the Applications. Anti-malware software: Commercial Anti-Virus software that can detect the Ransom breach with its signature. NONE OF THE OS ARE SAFE Just because those industries are taking the pain of Ransomware attacks, that doesn’t mean that Ransom doesn’t attack us. It does not matter what Operating System we use. Any major Operating Systems like Windows, OS X(Mac), Linux and Android will not secure you 100% from Ransom Attacks until it is patched and up to date. Although, it is patched there are several possibilities that it may get infected. A survey of 1,700 managed-service providers states the percentage of Ransom attacks on each OS: - Windows: 100% - MAC: 3% - Linux: 3% - Android: 3% So I conclude by saying that, it is in our hands and it’s our Responsibility to stay safe from Ransom and many Cyber Threats. We need to follow the steps which I have given in the Safety Precautions heading. We have nothing to do after we got infected, as we can’t escape from it, so the best way is to stay safe.

A young trio of Plastic Free MV advocates came before Tisbury selectmen Tuesday night to propose a warrant article for the same type of plastic water and soda bottle ban Aquinnah, Chilmark, and West Tisbury have approved. “We have a bylaw that [would] ban plastic water and soda bottles of 34 ounces and under,” Plastic Free MV Quinlan Slavin said. Quinlan was joined by Runar Finn Robinson and Odin Robinson. The three went on to tell the board plastic was becoming an unbearable marine pollutant. “Have you guys put together any resources for businesses as to what they could purchase as an alternative to plastic water bottles?” Sarah York, president of the Vineyard Haven business Association, asked. The three pointed to glass, and said it could be cost-effective. “So, and I don’t want to sound mean — I’m impressed with what they’re doing, I’d love you to try to get a citizens petition to put that on the warrant which would introduce it to the public,” selectman Jim Rogers said. Slavin pointed out that with a citizens’ petition, the town can’t later amend the language. Runar said Plastic Free MV has already done a lot to inform the public. York invited Plastic Free MV to a Vineyard Haven Business Association meeting ahead of the next town meeting. Selectman Jeff Kristal, who joked he didn’t like kids other than his own, nevertheless said he supported the endeavor, and said he had no problem sponsoring the article closer to town meeting. Chairman Melinda Loberg asked to see a draft warrant article used in one of the up-Island towns, and Quinlan said they already had a draft ready for the board to look at. Loberg said the board would review the draft article in preparation for a vote at the next scheduled meeting. In other business, the board mulled changing the traffic direction of Union Street, which had been switched to one way up from the harbor a few years earlier. Police Chief Mark Saloio advocated for making the street two-way, describing such a configuration as a “win-win.” Alternatively, York said the business community was opposed to the idea. “People were freaking out,” she said when told it was being considered. The selectmen made no decision on the matter, but decided to revisit the idea at a future meeting.

Market Digest – Week Ending 1/22 Stocks rebounded from a panicked start this week to finish positive. The S&P 500 posted a 1.4% gain while international stocks rose 2.4%. There was little concrete news on the way down or on the rebound. European and Japanese central bank comments indicating more stimuli may be on the way provided encouragement to buyers. Oil initially sold off on inventory numbers then rebounded on feelings prices had dropped too far coupled with an expected spike in demand from a coming storm on the East Coast. S&P 500: 1,907 (+1.4%) FTSE All-World ex-US: (+2.4%) US 10 Year Treasury Yield: 2.06% (+0.03%) Gold: $1,098 (+0.9%) USD/EUR: $1.080 (-1.1%) • Monday – Crude oil fell to its lowest level in 12 years as traders reacted to lifting of sanctions on Iran. • Tuesday – Netflix reported higher than expected international subscriber growth, but lower profit on higher content costs. Shares were little changed. • Tuesday – Carl Icahn reiterated his push to encourage AIG to split its businesses. • Wednesday – The S&P 500 dropped nearly 4% before recovering to a loss of 1% for the day. The ten year treasury yield dipped below 2%. • Thursday – The weekly number of Americans filing for unemployment reached a six month high, sparking concerns about the strength of the labor market. • Thursday – Oil prices surged after inventory reports showed slower growth than feared. • Friday – Global stocks rallied as investors welcomed indications of more central bank stimulus in Europe and Japan. The first positive week of the year is a welcome event. If you were watching along the way, it was a wild ride. The S&P 500 was down almost 4% intra-day on Wednesday, bringing the index into double digit negative territory for the year before rebounding sharply for the remainder of the week. The correction feels a lot like the one in August. It has been a quick, sharp drop with little concrete news driving it. The primary fears are “China” and uncertainty created by plummeting oil prices. In August we felt more confident in saying market activity was a classic correction and was likely to rebound. This time (while it is possible Wednesday’s panicked early morning selling marked a bottom) we think there is more uncertainty. We don’t put much credence in technical analysis or charting, but the fact that the rebound from August failed to make a new high and the decline this time did make a new low is discomforting. We don’t know which way stocks will go, but we think investors should stick to long term strategies. Many are scared of a repeat of 2008, but it is worth considering that was a very extreme bear market. If we have another full-fledged bear, it is still unlikely things would get that ugly and we may already be through much of it. US stocks have held up relatively well until just recently but international stocks, high yield bonds and commodities have been beaten up for some time. Much or all of the pain here is already in the past. No matter what, recent market activity justifies some uneasiness. But if you have a global, multi-asset class diversified portfolio, we think you will be well positioned to ride this one out and may even be pleasantly surprised by some asset classes that have been out of favor recently.

AFTER a one-year political deadlock following national elections held on July 27, 2003, Cambodia finally has a new government. Chea Sim, foreground, followed by Hun Sen and Sar Kheng, back right, in this file photo, taken before cracks appeared in the smiling united front the Cambodian People's Party likes to present. But the process of getting one has left open wounds within senior ranks of the ruling Cambodian People's Party (CPP), lingering questions about the constitutionality of the new coalition government and palpable concern over how a bloated, fractious cabinet will manage the day-to-day responsibilities of running the country. The deal was wrapped up quickly on Thursday morning, July 15, when 96 Members of the National Assembly voted unanimously with a show of hands to approve a new cabinet with Hun Sen as Prime Minister. Hun Sen, who is Asia's longest serving political leader, was all smiles alongside Funcinpec party boss Prince Norodom Ranariddh as the pair savored a rousing round But the air of confidence that filled the National Assembly was in stark contrast to the political shenanigans that have dogged inter-party negotiations since last The CPP were outright victors - winning 73 of the 123 seats on offer in the National Assembly. However, the result fell short of a constitutional mandate that requires any party to win a two-thirds majority before it can form a government. Heavy-handed squabbling and petty political rivalries dominated the race to forge a coalition, which ended as most observers thought it would with a CPP-Funcinpec More important was the lingering cloud of uncertainty over an all-too-public rupture within the normally unified CPP. In the absence of King Norodom Sihanouk - who is in self-imposed exile in North Korea - Chea Sim was acting head of state, and the King had urged him to follow his conscience in deciding whether to sign an amendment to the Constitution that would allow a package show-of-hands vote at the heart of the coalition deal. If Chea Sim was unhappy with the deal and decided not to sign he would have to abstain, and as acting head of state this would require him to leave the country, allowing the next in line to fill his shoes. Chea Sim made a dramatic exodus from the country on Tuesday morning, with an escort led by National Police Chief Hok Lundy - just hours before he was expected to sign-off and allow parliament to sit. That move stunned political observers and the diplomatic community, who feared an unprecedented factional brawl had broken out within the party. CPP officials then went into overdrive as they attempted to convince a skeptical nation that the party had not departed from its trademark unified public persona. Hun Sen advisor Om Yin Tieng said Chea Sim's inability to finalize the agreement on behalf of Sihanouk and his sudden departure for Bangkok was solely for medical reasons. This justification was later buttressed by a letter from Chea Sim posted late Tuesday on King Sihanouk's website which was dated Monday, July 12 and which described Sim's medical condition and his decision to seek medical attention in Thailand. Yin Tieng's explanation for the deployment of police around Chea Sim's house and beefed-up security in the capital was a scare in the adjacent Senate. Its secretariat had called police claiming there were "terrorists" in the building. None Of concern to diplomats were reports that soldiers from Brigade 70, Hun Sen's personal bodyguard unit, were reported to have been positioned at Chea Sim's house late Monday night, fueling speculation that Sim was bluntly presented with a stark choice: sign the deal or leave the country. Chea Sim flew to Bangkok and visited Bumrungrad Hospital where he underwent a routine cardiogram, according to media sources in the Thai capital. He has a history of heart Political analysts and government officials privately say that Chea Sim's refusal to approve the new government was not related to debates over the finer points of Constitutional law nor his concern for his health, but was rather a reflection of the Chea Sim/Sar Kheng faction's displeasure with the make-up of the new cabinet and Hun Sen's refusal to accede to their demands for a greater slice of the political One senior government official said Chea Sim had demanded that Cham Prasidh, Minister of Commerce; Chan Sarun, Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries; and Lim Kean Hor, Minister of Water Resources and Meteorology, be replaced with Sim-nominated appointments, a request Hun Sen denied. "Chea Sim is the victim," said the source who declined to be named. "The Hun Sen-Chea Sim dispute is now out in the open so Hun Sen... can push this forward." Political analysts point to a larger, longer-term trend within the CPP indicating a gradual erosion of political power for Chea Sim and his traditional Prey Veng clique, which rose to prominence after the initial overthrow of the Khmer Rouge in 1979. "The two most astute politicians in this country are Hun Sen and Sok An," said one analyst. "They work the issues every day and out-fox all their enemies." "We used to say 'Chea Sim runs the party and Hun Sen runs the government'," said one diplomat referring to Chea Sim's sudden departure from the country. "But the tectonic plates have shifted. Hun Sen is now The Man on all fronts." It is also noted that with the expansion of the cabinet to include seven Deputy Prime Ministers (compared to two previously), Sar Kheng, Chea Sim's brother-in-law, will no longer carry as much political clout in the government, and may not be acting Prime Minister when the PM is out of the country. After Sim's abrupt departure from the country, the CPP claimed Nhiek Bun Chhay was next in line as Acting Head of State, an issue over which there is confusion. One embassy said their analysis of the Constitution indicated that with Senate First Deputy President Prince Sisowath Chivan Monirak out of the country, the next person who would have been Acting Head of State was Prince Ranariddh. Whether or not this could have been the case without an official letter from the King was also in dispute. In the event, Nhiek Bun Chhay finally signed-off on the agreement on Tuesday, leaving diplomats, political analysts and Cambodia-watchers scrambling for answers. The rumor factories went into overdrive and most observers were stunned by how little hard information was available. CPP sources either were unavailable to meet with anyone outside party circles, would not talk openly on the phone, or just turned their phones off. One diplomat said he was still trying to confirm early on Wednesday morning whether Chea Sim was even out of the country. "We heard he was holed up in some back room in the Senate," said the diplomat. Telephone lines to Khmer talk-back radio were jammed with callers objecting to Nhiek Bun Chhay signing the deal. To make matters worse, the electricity grid and water supply underwent a rare two-hour shutdown around Tuesday noon. Police, perhaps unwittingly, fed the rumor mill, claiming their deployment was in response to the possibility of widespread street protests. These did not occur, but that final claim had some resonance. The last organized street protests resulted in the anti-Thai riots in January 2003, when mobs razed the Thai embassy and delivered Hun Sen his most embarrassing episode since the "Democracy Square" demonstrations in 1998. As for Chea Sim's immediate future, one CPP source was asked if he could return to Cambodia. "It's just a mild heart condition, he can come back whenever he wants to," came the reply. The source was then asked: when? And the response: "He won't be back for some time because he has also built-up a lot of holidays and is expected to take an extended

5 Experts on How to Foster Joy in Black Children Fostering Black joy is important, especially for kids, because it counters harmful stereotypes and messages that present the Black experience from a deficit perspective. Black children need to see themselves reflected in the world around them, inviting a true sense of belonging and cultural pride. Black joy means embracing and appreciating Blackness in its authenticity and fullness, which is critical to instilling a healthy sense of identity in Black children. Black joy deserves to be expressed unapologetically, as a form of both healing and resistance. Black joy is within our families, our traditions, our love, and in our resilience to love ourselves when the world around us may not love us back. This Black History Month I invite you to go beyond the surface and find ways to affirm, celebrate, and amplify Black joy. Black children deserve to be authentically seen, heard, and valued, and that is achieved by centreing Black joy. Keep reading to view tips from five experts on how to foster joy in Black children and affirm their Black identity.

China, the top buyer of Iranian oil, has dismissed Washington’s warning to Hong Kong that it could face penalties if it provides services to a vessel carrying Iranian oil headed for the autonomous territory, saying “normal energy dealings” with Iran are in accordance with law and should be respected. In a Wednesday statement, a spokesman for Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated Beijing’s opposition to the US imposition of “unilateral sanctions and so-called long arm jurisdiction,” the South China Morning Post reported. “The normal energy dealings between Iran and the international community, including China, that is within the framework of international laws, are reasonable, lawful, and should be respected and protected,” said the statement. The response came a day after Washington warned Hong Kong to be on the lookout for the Pacific Bravo carrying Iranian oil that may seek to stop in the Asia financial hub, and said that any entity doing business with the vessel “would be exposing themselves to US sanctions.” The Pacific Bravo is owned by China’s Bank of Kunlun, which has been the main official channel for money flows between China and Iran amid US sanctions on Tehran. It is majority-owned by China National Petroleum Corp’s listed financial arm, CNPC Capital. Meanwhile, the Hong Kong Commerce and Economic Development Bureau said it has been “strictly implementing sanctions decided by the United Nations,” which don’t impose “any restrictions on the export of petroleum from Iran.” “Certain countries may impose unilateral sanctions against certain places on the basis of their own considerations. Those sanctions are outside the scope of the UN Security Council sanctions implemented by [Hong Kong],” said the bureau. The White House said on April 22 that it will not renew exemptions granted last year to buyers of Iranian oil in an attempt to bring Iran’s oil exports to “zero,” around a year after it abandoned a 2015 multinational nuclear deal with Iran and reinstated its sanctions against the Islamic Republic in a much-criticized move. The move sent oil prices soaring to an unprecedented level since November 2018 and drew harsh criticisms from the main customers of Iranian crude, especially China and Turkey.

My 2010 6.2L SVT raptor tranny cracked last week. Can I use any 6r80 tranny as a replacement (mustang, explorer, F150) or do I need a raptor specific tranny ? I'm in the Middle East, so its a bit difficult to get spare tranny as you would in the USA. Ive been told for years, the trade offs of linking the rear. That the truck would handle like a marshmallow on the road and loose daily drivability, that they cant tow, loose the bed, relocate gas tank, cage the cab etc. The Gen 3 raptor (not to mention Ram TRX) seems to gain more...

In 2010, Judy Kaye pooled together $800,000 in savings and loans to open her dream business: an upscale sex club, one focused on prioritizing women. Then a 43-year-old mother of three with an MBA in marketing from Queen's University, she was working a retail job selling IT solutions at the time. In her private life, Kaye and her husband, Richard, were frequent visitors to sex clubs both at home and abroad. In the Greater Toronto Area, they'd go to places such as Etobicoke's Club M4 or Mississauga's X Club when they could, which wasn't as often as they'd like. "As parents, one of the challenges was the fact that most of them were only open Friday, Saturday night, at 10 p.m." says Kaye, stylish in an acid-green blazer and velvet boots that lace up over the knee. "We always said, 'Wouldn't it be great if there was a place open in the daytime?'" Now there is: Seven years after Kaye and her partners imagined their own club, Toronto's Oasis Aqualounge is a thriving destination for people of all ages. Like many would-be entrepreneurs, Kaye spent ages daydreaming about what her ideal club would look like, incorporating elements she liked from various places she and Richard visited during their travels. She got to talking about her ideas with Jana Rodriguez, her children's swimming instructor and a former Olympic windsurfer from the Czech Republic. The two wanted to refute the public conception of sex clubs as "dark, dingy and seedy," as Kaye puts it, imagining a place that was clean, bright and inviting, a place where people could feel safe and welcome to explore. Rodriguez had her own reference points from the spas and bathhouses of Europe. The potential business partners had been talking for about two years when, in 2010, a former bathhouse known as Club Toronto on Mutual Street became available for sale. It's a storied venue: In 1981, during the Toronto bathhouse raids, it was one of four gay bathhouses stormed by police, the site of mass arrests. In 2000, it was the location of the Pussy Palace raids, when a group of women were targeted and harassed by male police officers. Kaye and her partners were aware of the history, and thought it was the perfect place to open their own safe space for people with marginalized sexualities. Kaye and her husband joined with Rodriguez and a fourth partner (who is no longer involved) to pool their personal finances. They avoided trying for a bank loan because they knew their business venture was an unusual one. Instead, they sought funding from family and friends: Asking her parents for a loan, Kaye says, was a difficult conversation. "It was very challenging to explain what Oasis was," she says. "It's a unique business, and not one we could say, 'Look over there, it's working great for these people.' My family was really betting on me, and not on the business itself, to be honest with you." In April of 2010, the group took over the space and named it Oasis Aqualounge. All four held on to their day jobs while spending their free time revitalizing the space, hiring interior designer Robin DeGroot to give the old club a facelift while preserving its history. At one point, DeGroot ordered the painters scraping an old bathroom to stop what they were doing. "They uncovered all these different colours of paint they were scraping. He said, 'Leave it. We're working with this,'" Kaye says. "This is the history of a home in these layers of paint." By the end of November that year, Oasis was open for business. The final layout includes a heated outdoor pool (open year-round, a holdover from the bathhouse days), a hot tub, dance floor, several bars, a ballroom and a dungeon. The top floor is divided into multiple open-concept rooms: one recreates the back of a Volkswagen van, another has a large black vinyl bed. On a recent Wednesday afternoon, it was home to no fewer than three couples fornicating. Initially, the club was only open Thursday to Saturday and daytime Sunday, with Kaye and her partners shouldering most of the work. Soon, the University of Toronto's Sexual Education Centre threw a one-time student event that proved so popular it became a weekly Monday night party called Sass After Class. More people got in touch with ideas for events, from fetish parties to sex-education nights. Now Oasis hosts eight events a week, and is only closed twice a year: Christmas Day, and one day in the summer for maintenance work. With a busier schedule came the need for a staff. Most of the people who work at Oasis were regulars seeking work. There is a special pool staff who shows up after hours, making sure everything is clean and up to code. The floor staff undergoes gender-sensitivity training and safety training. Safety and consent are integral themes of any successful sex club and Oasis has a strict "ask once" policy to cut down on harassment and unwanted touching. Anyone who breaks these policies is automatically kicked out, though Kaye says this happens less than most people assume. "People drink far less at Oasis than they do elsewhere because alcohol affects performance," she says, adding that most of their revenue comes from door prices, rather than drink sales. "Sure, every bar has its troubles. We've got security. But for the most part, people come to Oasis because they're lovers. They're not fighters." Oasis must operate as a private club, meaning every person who enters must automatically register as a member and in doing so, must agree to follow the venue's rules. Unlike many of the clubs in the United States, however, Oasis doesn't record people's identification; visitors are free to make up a user name. There are regular women- and trans-only nights, and single men are only allowed to attend certain days of the week. Though these nights are well attended, they aren't necessarily financially successful, even though single men are charged a much higher admission rate (which changes by day and event) than women and trans folks. Yet this is all part of an integral part of building Oasis's brand. "There were many bathhouses already in Toronto focused on men's sexuality," Kaye says. "We wanted to be something focused on women's sexuality." The owners talked extensively with women before opening about what would make them comfortable; the difference in price points is aimed at balancing the ratio of visitors' genders. "I understand that [men's bathhouses] do well, but I could not serve that market," Kaye says. "We initially found it quite challenging to build a market for a woman-focused bathhouse, but we have a unique offering. People come from a wide area to experience it." After six years in business, Oasis has yet to make back its original investment, but Kaye says she is optimistic, and that growth has increased 20 per cent in the past two years. Kaye says there are currently 20,000 subscribers to the club's weekly newsletter, which also gives guests the opportunity to provide direct feedback. "There was a woman last week who said, 'You could have told me you were here!'" she says with a laugh. "'I've missed six years of fun.'"

Being stuck in Lockdown can be tough for any travel lover, however, here’s an inspiring Survival Guide to support you through it. Come summer we all thought that COVID-19 would be a thing of the past, however as we have it, it is very much still with us. In fact, for most parts of Europe, we’ve now entered our second wave and into our second national lockdown. This is the new normal they say. The Psychological Effects Of COVID-19 Lockdown As I woke up on the first Monday of the second national lockdown here in London, I had a great feeling of anxiety and a deep sense of entrapment. I know that staying home is the right thing. I have been doing it just fine for the last 7 months, why is this feeling so hard now?– Noor Stage 1 – Shock When something sudden happens like the Coronavirus pandemic, we go into shock. We don’t feel anything. Instead, we start preserving ourselves and helping others because that’s what makes human beings survive. Does clapping for the NHS every Thursday, stockpiling toilet roll, and making a long list of DIY plans sound familiar? After a relenting period of this, we get tired, and we start to react. Stage 2 – React Now, in Lockdown 2, is when we are starting to see people react. We are seeing higher levels of anxiety, depression, and even an increase in suicides. Which explains the sudden onset of anxious feelings that morning. It’s going to take time to mentally repair ourselves (and even physically for those of us that’s been binge-eating), but do remember that you are not alone. If you are looking for advice or just someone to talk to, the NHS has a fantastic list of Mental Health Helplines to help support you. If you’re looking for a travel community to talk about your travels, or lack thereof, The Solo Female Traveler Network is a personal favourite of mine. What Happens When You Cannot Travel? When we can’t travel, we experience the CHC. Change: During this change, our brains have been sensory deprived. We have become desperate to see new things and think of new fresh thoughts like we would experience when we travel. We want more mental stimulation. Habits: We have both good and bad habits, and a part of our good habits is to travel. Whether its annual summers in Greece or a new destination every three months, we have been deprived of these habits. Instead, we are being exposed to the same routine over and over again, which starts looking unattractive after a while. This leads to boredom and the feelings of the missing our old habits. Control: We have well and truly lost control of the surrounding situation, which can be distressing. Not that we ever had control anyways. But we are accustomed to making plans and seeing them through. And now, we no longer have any travel plans to look forward to. However, whilst we can’t make any immediate plans, we can most certainly dream about future ones. The Cure To Wanderlust In Lockdown, Dream There has been a lot of solid research to prove that travel planning is one of the happiest parts of travelling. But, instead of calling it travel planning let’s call it dreaming. Dreaming allows us to enjoy the joy of travelling whilst we are at home in lockdown, without having to plan any actual dates. This gives us a glimmer of hope and something to look forward to. Something to keep us going. Not to mention that it allows our brain to be stimulated as well. Lockdown Survival Guide For The Stay Home Travel Lover 7 Things To Appease Your Wanderlust As mentioned above, the best cure for a travel-lover with a bad case of wanderlust is to dream. So, how to dream? Make A Travel Scrapbook Remember the gazillion pictures that you have taken over the years, that you vowed you will look back on one day? Well, now’s your chance. Swipe through your pictures and pick out your favourite ones and get them printed out for your travel scrapbook. When you are in a constant cycle of travelling, it can be easy to overlook at all that you have achieved. But by scrapbooking, you’ll be reliving the experiences you’ve had. You’ll find yourself looking back on the fond memories, acknowledging the strength and struggle it took to make some things happen and laughing at the mishaps along the way. And you never know, you may find yourself appreciating all that you’ve done and realising that you’ve achieved more than you thought. In return, this may just give you the permission to feel that its okay to not be travelling and achieving new goals at the moment. Shop your scrapbook essentials: If you’re in need of a scrapbook, you can purchase the ones above which are a personal favourite of mine. Not to mention that they have room to grow with you over the years. TIP: Get your photos printed off at Snapfish, you can even get an entire Photobook printed off here. Clear Out Your Travel Junk Out with the old, in with the new. Every traveller has a natural talent for collecting many things on their travels. Whether it’s old masses of receipts, itineraries or boarding passes, if you’re not going to scrapbook them or display them in another manner, get rid of them. Refresh Your Bucket List List experiences you want to experience, sights you want to see, things you want to capture, foods you want to eat, and everything else to make your bucket list complete. Although we can’t travel right now, we can most certainly dream. Shop your bucketlist journal: Your bucket list can be in an entire different place to your scrapbook. Personally I like to use a smaller journal that I can take with me on my travels. If you’re looking for travel inspiration, be sure to check out the blog. Research Your Bucket list Now that you have your bucket list, let’s start dreaming and turning your list into goals. Even goals with a potential 2021 date. Here are some good pointers to help you get started. The Ultimate Guide To Travel Budget: This will help you fantasises about what your estimated budget would look like. The Ultimate Guide To Travel Destinations: This will give you all the pointers that you will need to pick out your perfect dream destination. The Essential Guide To Pre Booking Your Travel: This will help you plan out all the potential activities, hotels, and many more things that you would like to do at your chosen destination. When we finally get out of lockdown that is. Cook Up A Global Sensation I don’t know about you, but discovering new cuisines on my travels, is a large part of me getting to know a new culture. Although we can’t travel at the moment, it doesn’t mean that we have to stop discovering new dishes. If you’re into Thai food like I am, Pailin from Hot Thai Kitchen is demystifying Thai food one cuisine at a time. In fact, her recipes and supporting YouTube videos are so fantastic that a complete novice like me, was able to produce a scrumptious Pad Thai. If you haven’t tried it before, be sure to whip up a batch of Sweet Potato Doughnuts. These things are so bouncy and addictive that I promise you’ll be back for some more. Shop your new favourite munchies: TIP: Kimchi Ramyun – Reduce the amount of water, add a dash of Soya Sauce and a couple dashes of Siracha Sauce and you will really have something. Redecorate With A Travel Theme Whilst we are not able to run around and collect memorabilia, we can purchase some travel themed items to change up our scenery. Shop your new decor: This is your time to clean out your digital storage space and polish up your camera equipment. But don’t just stop there and allow your photography skills to go rusty. Take your camera out for a spot of photography, whether it’s on your high street or your local park. Go even further and take up a photography course, and reward yourself with a new camera and supporting equipment, so that you’ll be ready for your post-COVID-19 Lockdown getaway. 5 Things To Overcome Any Feelings of Anxiety Become At One With Nature Whilst we are home, we are all being glued to our devices. So, be sure to give your eyes (and mind) a rest and reconnect with nature. Now, this doesn’t have to be anything too extravagant, it could be a walk in the park, to a local lake or pond to feed the ducks or to a local green space for some forest bathing. If this is the first time that you’ve heard about forest bathing, well let me introduce you to the Japanese concept of shinrin-yoki i.e. forest-bathing. This involves bathing in the forest atmosphere or taking in the forest ambiance through our senses. For those not looking for anything strenuous, this is perfect for you. It simply involves walking or sitting in nature and connecting with it via our sense of sight, smell, taste, hearing, and touch. TIP: A two-hour forest bath can help you to de-stress and unwind. During lockdown 1, when all the gyms were closed, and I was looking for some normality to survive, I came across Yoga With Adriene. Well got reaccustomed to it at least, and this time I was actually able to commit to her 30 days yoga program. Did I mention that Adriene’s kind heart uploads free yoga workouts on YouTube? Despite being one of if not the most successful yoga instructor on YouTube!? She even has a free 30-day calendar listing out the daily workouts for that month. TIP: Grab a mat and start with her HOME – A 30 Day Yoga Journey Shop your yoga mat: At Home Workouts If you’re looking for an at-home workout alternative to a gym, check out the Sweat App. If you’ve heard of the BBG workout program, well this is its home, and If you time it just right, you can purchase an annual membership for under £70. Other than the BBG program which is aimed at fat burning, there are many more programs aimed at muscle building or strength training. Each of these programs are run by women who have recently released equipment-free versions of their workout programs as well. TIP: Your membership gives you access to all the programs and you can switch between the programs or pull in individual workouts from various programs as often as you like. Whilst we have extensively talked about scrapbooking and dreaming whilst looking to the future, it’s also important to acknowledge how we are feeling in the present. Shop your new personal journal: One way of doing this, is by journaling. There’s not much to this, you simply write down how you feel every day. If you are feeling particularly anxious or low one day, this can help you to identify what triggered it. And the best part, this will only be for your eyes. So you can be as raw and honest as you like. Pick Up A New Hobby If like me, you can’t sit still and your mind needs to be frequently stimulated, well pick up a new hobby. I mean, after all, it’s how this blog was born. If there was a musical instrument that you’ve always wanted to try, why don’t you finally do it using YouTube or another virtual teacher to guide you? If being a music prodigy isn’t quite your thing, why don’t you pick up a new technical skill? It doesn’t have to be hardcore programming, but there are many free courses that you can undertake to take you from non-techie or to somewhat techie. Shop your new hobby: Knitting, painting, or any other creative craft could be a perfect hobby for anyone looking to get some time away from their tech screens. And the healthiest hobby of all, reading. Shop the best-selling reading list: Here’s Amazon’s list of its 2020 Best Selling Books. Are you in a lockdown where you are? How are you doing? I would love to hear how you’re surviving the lockdown and the general new normal.

gydl (Graphical Youtube-dl) is a GUI wrapper around the already existing youtube-dl program. Gydl (Graphical Youtube-dl) is a GUI wrapper around the already existing youtube-dl program. It's developed with a dialog driven experience in mind. This provides a quick and easy video or audio downloads without disturbances. Big thank you to the developer(s) of youtube-dl! Check out their project: Gydl is currently in a state where it is not worth enhancing/developing it in any way. I currently don't have the resources to develop Gydl myself - thus the amount of open issues. I plan on keeping Gydl stable for how it currently is/works and rewrite it completely in about half a year at the latest. Stable releases are hosted on Flathub: flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo flatpak install flathub com.github.JannikHv.Gydl sudo dnf install gydl Gydl is written in Python3 and uses the GTK+3 toolkit. To run it you need to have installed: Meson installs to /usr/localas the default prefix. meson build cd build ninja install meson --helpto get all build options. You may specify any option when you initially run meson. # Example meson build --prefix=/app If you already have a build directory, you must use instead use meson configure, from within the build directory. # Example cd build meson configure -Dprefix=/app Meson also supports the DESTDIR environment variable, which is useful for building a package. Gydl itself is currently not translatable, but the appdata and the desktop entry is. Use the build system to generate a POT template file from the latest commit. meson build ninja -C build Gydl-pot rm -rf build Copy the POT file into a PO file matching your language code and translate all strings. Alternatively follow the above steps and use a tool like Poedit. When using Gydl, you have the option to download your Youtube Video as a Video or Audio. Each of these options have a text entry, as well as 2 combo-boxes managing quality and the format. When clicking on Download there are 3 scenarios you can face: These dialogues will be presented to you as a little windows. Notice that not every combination of settings will work. Thanks for any involvement in this project, I hope you like it. Kind regards, Jannik Hauptvogel.
