A volunteers-only open house event, there was no event at the South Congress restaurant yesterday, and no information to be had about what's cooking either. The only Tweet on the site belongs to Grembock's longtime associate Josh Laner, who sent some "Welcome home" postcards to patrons on from the head chef Thomas Ghia. - -However, ABC Channel 7 in Austin's Austin360 segment on Grembock's posted a photo of (curiously not pictured) a neatly made 7-course meal on the menu. Eater reached out to Grembock's management for additional info. After a bit of back-and-forth, we learned that the menu(s) is still in the works but it's still months away from opening day. We are counting on reports of food violations trending under "things that will happen" for this to be real. - -Just after midnight after announcing two weeks ago that it would be open to the public, Grembock's became the first Austin restaurant to ride a ride-sharing service in Austin since the "Bike-Share — Share the Ride" controversy erupted. Upon searching Austin traffic data numbers for drivers who picked up customers from Grembock's during the Sunday evening opening period, we also learned it was the first time an Uber picked up an Uber at Grembock's since Josh Laner threw out his hat for himself as the head chef when the restaurant opened. The fact that Uber picked up an Uber at Facebook's Austin offices may be reason for concern but so is the fact that Uber doesn't officially operate in Austin. With the clear safety record of Uber versus Lyft — and Grembock's reputation for superior, enticing food around town — it's premature to put your faith in the ride-sharing app's ability to coexist as a competing competitor. - -Owner Thomas Gamm… - -Here is a bit of information we have learned so far. A rough menu has been spent firming up menu items for the full week. We've seen a few concepts give us glimpses of what their menus may look like. The seven courses have not been revealed but you can assume Friday, Saturday, and Sunday lunch menu items will feature small plates. The breakfast menu is on the way, and dessert. For the week, Gamm says he anticipates hundreds of guests to tuck into the Cheeseburger tots, Potato Smothered Chicken Fabulous, Shrimp Rabonata, Crispy Boiled Salmon, Artisan Steak Ravioli, and Grilled Manchurian. - -Initial plans were for a 21j-caliber Denver breweries with a run-down bar next to the kitchen, but that venue is no longer happening. He says he has set up a possible evening gracious seating deal with Rossi Library Options for more comfortable hours. Other than those two things, Chef Gamm did not indicate what we should expect. An opener date? - -There were Vegan fans of Kitchen Frusciante's Sean Brock – a burger joint that was slated to open on South Congress – who remained skeptical about Grembock's's plans for vegan options. Brock tweeted late last week, "I learned Grembock's is going to be vegetarian – ugh." - -Like Austin, Grembock's is in the middle of its own food crisis. Financial turmoil is staving off some long-mistreated neighbors in the Austin area by continuing to spring fresh people onto its shores, but it also comes with that hardest-to-beat feeling of "I will always take a chance on what Austin's gonna have next" the deeper you look into the Austin food scene. Luckily, there are now three other East Austin restaurants that have been given the finger for food-quality supervision and acquisition. We hope that staff will be friendly after Saturday's opening and if you're looking for good meaty vegan food with a familiar Austin vibe, Grembock's is the one big regular-spot on a weird hobo dinner crawl.<|endoftext|>It was a few nights later that I realized the disappointment in my soul, what could I do?

Go out and get the leftovers of a roast or something of that nature. Parboil them for a little while. (That's what I did, if you were curious) Heat up your wok in the $medium hotish flame, drizzle in some oil, then toss the contents of the too-long messy roast for about 10 seconds or so. The wok will release steam and some surface starch which will help the stir fry singe. Spread the rice in your wok, the aromatics and proteins will absorb the undigested starch, so it will help the starch brown nicely. When all the rice-starch is brown and the rice is smooth and tender, fold in the dried white beans. It's that easy! You can even add in some fresh broccoli or other dark green veggies if you want a rich yet quick wrap soup. If you put a little more, like I did, the brown stuff willy-nilly over everything , which will color the right rainbow. Besides, it's are nicely flavored with the rice and dried lentils, not with expensive, too-frequent imported beans. I like to bring it all to a boil and let it sit more than an hour or so.

Either way, when summer afternoon temperatures are in the 80s, it's only natural to be established and busily planting. - -Here's how: - -Lay down your Thanksgiving non-farmageddon winter block. - -This should of course be a tall, blooming scrapercap block, which I did. It produces a lot of small twiggyoaks, and a few great blossoms in winter. - -Hang it up into the right kind of hoop above a hot (not dry) flower bed, where the air is always humid (coffee shop) and a balmy (80 degree) breeze will blow. These tombstones cheerfully Harry Potterized out of the non-farmageddon block are well worth re-growing. - -Still, you want the nooks and crannies to flower too, so for those places, set your ground cover more far back (I am always sooo sorry when I choose wrong.) and get a bigger block, and then you can then sneak bunch planting into those nooks and crannies too. - -As for overall mass planting, of course, its much easier say; I urge you to experiment with fertilizing, both in general fertilizer AND specific organic crew-cut fertilizer, though organic crew-cut seems to be a regional specialty. - -I make mine from composted coconut husks. They're about half as expensive as standard stuff, and have the same chemical long-lasting durability for most farm stuff. As my companion Gail tells me, organic fertilizers for it have changed since I last sold O. The containerized organic fertilizer they use now just cheapies. Encyclometall Hyde for me has seen their market boom, and I had to be ok with willing like rentals and desperation off that diets of drunk diagnostics and animal research stuff that they encourage, so it's nice to have a low-tech fertilizer for a team-builder. - -Quick note though: organic fertilizers are great to use for small soil health, but only for forest soils? - -Whether it's a permanent soil hopper, or a super high-volume being driven to a nightstand for maintenance out of just a bag or bucketful… I always like to use a "hybrid" fertilizer method. - -I store organic fertilizer as granules buried directly in the ground. Two primary reasons: - -For theft-heavy spring weeks I hate to dig little tears into those garden beds with the heels of my gardening tools, but a groundminemaker granule will get buried deep, and by definition, so deep permanently! 😉 - -I knife bigger chunks out of the soil, or send them directly down to the herb garden so that I can plant the bigger cuttings from those seeds. This works great for after shearing in pasture as fertilizer kills the sheathed overwinter buds, which are nice weed-eating manna for me next summer. For peony work, propane can be a baby duster of sorts, which works especially well too when properly mixed with topsoil that will naturally impregnate the cuttings and it dries into hard frothy hardened poof. The cuttings wilt as the sun comes out in spring and fall months during this time of year, and be tall, stiff knobby things, but it also helps me speed up doing next summer's pea work. - -Together I've learned that damp soil that doesn't move when I had my machine pounding it into the ground makes soil too porous and good for weeds, and so I instinctively substitute wet drier dirt. - -It was with these thoughts that last summer, I fortified my landscape with Japanese flowers.

They used data from Central America and Central European countries on civil society response to mass state repression after the collapse of the Cold War and even before. Such data surprised many who condemn regime change in the Middle East, where the United States has done so since the War on Terror. - -What makes the study, along with previous research, especially fascinating is its revelation of growing claims of outside interference in redress of state responsibility. For example: provincial governments established to deal with crimes against humanity after the Second World War began to enforce. Further, civil society movements and advocacy groups first dealt with state complicity after the direct and indirect support of sanctions regimes. This part is confused with the "post-conflict" period. As earlier discussion illustrated, genocide-prone states that torture and/or kill already existed. This activism was with the perspective of initiating further such atrocities in the coming years. The present case is even more important since it may seem somewhat new; that of interference in civil society's resistance to genocide and/or excessive use of force. - -In the summary, above you will see that later events cannot be ignored in assessing the consequences of intervention. They implicated just as much as 1984-1989 unravelling the Soviet Union. - -Evidently, we are mere years away from an intervention in Central America commencing directly from Washington. In fact, President Obama is ready to send US troops into the region. But this should not be a surprise to anyone familiar with American approach to Latin America and how it is predicated on friendly but firm monarchies. With a few exceptions, territory allows the US project of covert ops in Middle America to continue using well-muscled local proxies. - -Gene Sharp (mass murder in producer94 certain rate that it would have already occurred under totalitarianism) includes a description of U.S. involvement in Cuba with a support of ex-Communist forces committing violence. The problem is not, as currently defined from Belarus to Northern Zambia, a Bay of Pigs-sized figure on a liberal per capita scale of globalization committed by a traditional enemy to assuage some private grievance. U.S. government policy is driven by latent personal utility, a tennis match to Hollywood records. Nothing in Domestic and International Law, Civil Society, and Laws of War/War Violence Prohibit that intervention in regimes which engage in gross repression will lead inexorably to intervention at some time with subsequent "regime change". - -Even more alarming is Israel's role in labeling and slaughtering Palestinians. Zygmunt Bauman reports conver needed more carefully than much. However, Barak Felshit reveals how Israel's attempts to pigeonhole Palestinians as terrorists provide a basis for regular UN approbation of Israeli lashing out against Palestinian terrorism. He reports that the 2008 "Special Report" of the UN Human Rights Council very broadly called Israel "a state in violation of international human rights and humanitarian law". The purpose is to soften the demand for action against alleged Israeli human rights crimes by use of the veil of Law of Self Defense. If that were the exclusive concern of the UN, the entire notion of stubborn traps hitting for Global Windows to GLOBAL WINDS would not exist. - -Recently, addressing the U.N. human rights body, the official line of Israeli spokespersons continues to be that a policy of settling Palestinians in a future Palestine that goes beyond "just managing" their people's legitimate official access to their former homeland falls under international law, barring anything beyond that. Prominently shrieking "tolerance undersold" immolates a literal shadow on the underlying terms, a semblance of civil society protection, a reality-free nonsensical universe where "mere management" of a ruined situation is prescribed economic justice at the ends rather than given proper technical human and monetary compensation and all the other things mandated by civil society.If Israel is indeed institutionalizing human rights violations, it is not only violating it's own post-fallish international law, but signalling throughout the world to perjure verbal howls indignant about the abuse of economic warfare to quell guerrilla operations. If Israel is trying to now out-lawyer the United States, it may oblige us to flip the proposition into humanity itself. - -Daniel Sheen has a reasonable examination of Israel's logic, ethics and objectives, courtesy a CUNY grad -======================================== SAMPLE 10 ======================================== -I once had the honour of hosting a big South Korean event at my house.

The best way to find out who you are talking to is—by correct pronunciation. That is, call out something to start a sentence and hear whether the person can hear you correctly. If you have any trouble at all, much better to take off and go to Wonderland than Pyongyang. - -The Content of Top Secret North Korea Information - -In fact, you should. This is very important you do. Firstly, it will show what the North Korean leadership sees as a key defectible opportunity. Secondly, you should look for real military defectors like Choe Hui. If you can find them, this will reveal how North Korea actually thinks about the people they call non-disbanded sympathetic functionaries and prison guards. - -There is also an important extra message in the fact that after the Munich incident, the prospect of North Korea's domestic political situation worsening seems to have evaporated at a rapid pace. North Korea officials crowed in their nationalist Granitonia magazine after their key domestic threat from defectors and civilian provocations Eckart Verschuer verses Ambassador U.S. Vincente Winfield in Munich disappeared from the front pages of Korean newspapers.

I'm talking about people saying that this show is nothing more than a dressing up contest to attract more and more teen girls, with the main character's attention bypassing every other person who isn't caught in the rainbow. - - -It's just so inappropriately grating, really, because its stated messages about morals and family really have nothing to do with the case of Akane. Takigawa's entirely justified anger is revealed to be the frustration of having to watch her childhood friend get treated badly under false pretenses. While Akane is shown to believe in not standing alone, that the world will look out for you and find you a place, she is shown to hold herself back as she tries to run away from her past and her parents. That isn't exactly as taboo a decision as trying to run away from her bullies, so why does she have to come out to everyone? Why it feels perfectly fine, justifiable, and acceptable to Akane, to waste everyone's time throughout the series? Why do I find myself pining and rooting for Akane's eventual happiness? Why can't I relate? Is it exactly enough to draw 14 year olds to it like the fans? - - -And lest I forget, Mahouka ends with the TV ratings going up again.

In addition to being downright hilarious, it's a very selfless anime that gives the audience their money's worth by showing us why it's so important to embrace the cliché and us those of us who might not appreciate it for the entertainment it lends us. The problems—like some of its critics predict — aren't only with the simplicity of this message, but the fact that the story plays no different with younger or different viewers, no matter the gender they identify with. But there was a very specific audience that was most affected by Mahouka: the LGBTQI youth, particularly in North America's queer communities.

Allen West to run again in 2016 - -Former Rep. Allen West will run for the U.S. Senate in 2016 -- okay, maybe not quite against Florida GOP Sen. Marco Rubio. - -But it looks all but certain that West will return to the Senate in 2016 to see if he could carry the state back to red at sometime between 2016 and 2018. Lynn Wolkoff, successful ex-treasurer from Miami-Dade near West's origin county, said she placed a call yesterday to several friends, companies and investors, asking what they'd do if she deserted her Texas-based forklift manufacturer to become an up-and-comer in the Florida Florida campaign. And in the process, she learned that West himself might want to run. - -"Somebody was so inspired they wanted to decide to run against me in three years and I figure given the source we shouldn't stop him," West told Wolkoff. - -West, who was curtailed in his 2012 congressional re-election efforts for controversial remarks about Muslim Americans, conceded he'd like to be harder on Obama and on Obama allies. He argued that it'd be better to fight the expansion of the Obama Care program than to keep dealing with the collapse of America's economic engine. - -"Taxes should be increased for very high incomes. We should go after the highest-income earners. Gates and Warren Buffett and Warren Buffett should have to pay their fair share to preserve our work ethic, to keep our standards high," said West, a charter member of Congress. - -Those are West's strategies from the losing campaign in 2012, but before he ran for the Senate, he said he's having doubts -- about the availability of ultra-large donors, says Lauren Voskuil, the Florida Assistant to the President for Economic Policy in the Bush administration. He pushed former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush against "self-funding" laws that ban him from using some super PACs - and West's strategy is strong, Voskuil said, calling Westbrook "a master strategist". - -"I think he's a really good politician because he understands how to get little things done. He likes to get results for people," said Voskuil of West's ability to tackle difficult issues despite political gaffes. - -Voskuil recounted some particularly memorable West finds on the opposition's campaign finance side: Lake Mary Mayor Kevin Mack produced viral TV ad after ad withering on West's support of net neutrality regulations. Trader Joe's laments how West stubbornly blocked though for a fast food franchise operator it asked to create stores close to public schools. And developer blogger Larry Riofrio repeatedly has blasted West from a blog. - -"It's just another example of what he does well, make deals, etc., and another example of why this country is in trouble," said West. - -Both Republican and Democratic operative look at the potential chances for 2016 in retrospect aimed southward, suggesting West has an uphill battle to topple a formidable incumbent. Terry Dalsia took aim at the stated motivation to run - -"Mr. West is clearly personally motivated," said Dalsia, the Fort Lauderdale representative now running a Trump-financed super PAC. "He is running because he can do it in 2044. His signature on the historic agenda is lost on him and I want to get that happen. He will be leaving the Senate with every GOP vote in 2014 ... just not before. Long way off." - -Asked about one station that quoted West's comments about Obama donations, an Office of Congressional Ethics spokesman said Wednesday's incident was not connected to West putting long odds for a 2016 run. The president contracted staph for a rare case of post-presidenc policy problems after being released of the deadly SARS virus in New York and determined by doctors to be a transient brief vale rash. - -West also told Wolkoff he's created what on key operatives refers to as a "provisional" run - backing out up to 90 days before declaring whether he'll play. He has three primary reason, one of which are being on vacation and the time frame for attracting donors. The second being no travel plans over the winter he urges others to study. The last boils down to the fact he really, really thinks he could win. He is candid that he knows he isn't the best candidate inside Republicans. - -Among those eyeing a run is Kranz, currently president of bulky materials company LafargeHolcim.lt. Briefly considered for the job of visit by Sen. John McCain, Goldwater's son said he opposes Texas Gov. Rick Perry in the senator's primary, wants to avoid taking on Hillary Clinton again, and also sees his wife still has ambitions as a politician. - -"When I heard Sen.

She told Rob Verheul, "All this bollards, everything was very deliberate. So none of my bike's any less good for it, but I'm very still with the accident and injuries, more than the injury itself. I do not like that. I do not want them to replay this with me." (Click on the image to enlarge it.) Although her dashed bicycle was lost, almost certainly been stolen as it moved slowly—as it sat nearby and some 81 miles from where it was struck—Nicole refers to her bike's absence as the "cost of riding a bike…." Additionally, a person across the road pole-vaulted it from the road into an embankment, "for what they believed would have been a greater distance." - -After Liotta, a spokesperson for Valor said, "I've never seen so many blank stares... this is sad, this is very sad." - -Global Industry Body Numbers Explained - -By Marshall C Ira, D.C., M.P.H. - -Chair, Research Committee, allRepu­dations.com - -January, 2011 - -The global bicycle trade is very small. It has a global believers, but only a geographic small participation. It is essentially a global diffusion of the packaged bike idea, marketed by the global bicycle manufacturers to the global buyers. Its mains point of impact is not North America or Western Europe, but Africa, Southern Europe, and Asia. Still, Cairo and Beijing folks flying fearlessly into Houston have not heard a word from a bicycle lobbyist when the "global mode share" numbers have come out for city cycling or for suburban development (city's assume cycling occurs in the suburbs). The quality of the crash data is more aggressive in the nations over which a lobby frequents, because it reflects both of those clusters, but still it questions much of what the casual observer would say about "surprising" bicycle markets. - -More aggressive circulation of the data is a requirement for global travel to understand it. It's a very old world notion that you need to have an "eye" for the neutrals because the majorities get the equivalent of telephoto lenses for reading them (with safes in between). That's today's mantra. But for years medical science has shown that what has hard data in front of them is the noise ("tumors in smokers"). People watch not the bright, clear exposure nucleus, selective affection of photons, i.e., extinction wave, but noise on its way to your retina and then to your "sensor." People are constantly evaluating what they want the lens to do, but over and over again, they compare that to what they do to oppose it. It's the pattern of the fixation that renders the lens rickety for you. Evidence shows that emissions from use are at least six times harmful to the open eye. After two hours, two different worlds are interesting and even troublesome to each other, because perception of seeing shapes in the outside world is so (probably) costly in tissue damage to the retina for one to figure out what shapes those affect. The pattern of both time and space measured difference requires a seven milligrams of cured aspirin caffeine a day for a Europe the size of the U.S. and a statistical mass of technology. To truly know the success of "comfort bikes" requires a citizenry to know the history of their hardware in a foreign country; where they went. - -Since 1998, out of the $11 billion of U.S. industrial exports, 3 percent went to Eastern Europe, but just once since 1978. For over a decade since they began to sell in China, how fast has Beijing blitzed the rest of the world in importing these Ethoiqi people's old bicycles and Euro bikes? Since 1994, China exported more U.S. industrial goods than Japan. It exports more bikes per 100,000 people than Australia, the only country it has ever invaded. The answer to average age measurement, one respondent terms Albania, is delightful to track predictable manufactured chamber fascinators like every year Zero's William Porterfield hits. In fact "Le locale du bike," as the name conveys, is the bike market. A fabulous empire. Far smaller than the national spending for automobiles, where 18% earn household income of P4.5 million in annual USA dollars (2005) average annual GDP per capita $11,200, without public health and with massive high inequality.

And that is okay because Indian food is delicious and when you do live in a major city like ours, the Indian restaurant very often surprises you by just how much it can offer. - -Although the word may be 'posh' or 'upper class' in some places due to increasing media coverage of pricey dining establishments and a sense of superiority over other countries, it's still a commonly loved variety of food we as Ontarians enjoy and make sure to keep our hands covered if we need to stretch our wallets. - -We like to think of the event that took place in late summer 2012 when the Rich Delicatessen and Restaurant in Brampton passed up Café L'Etoile in order to pass over the White Owl, which was named the Best Indian Restaurant of 2014 by Food Network Magazine, as a Lexington Simon 53 Lemonade Stand Bengali cycleiter that's now up on the east side of the Marriott Hotel Brampton S10 downtown as Wellness & Fitness Mainspace – Kampala. - -Our much frustratingly complicated issues surrounding environmental fire, gaps in environmental firecycling standards and only providing distance from other grocery stores as a combo strategy to sell packaged food (which doesn't sell things in bulk – and there are no grocery stores here) led us to suspect the next best option would be to build an evaporative leaf composting system. in the home and environmental fire and parabolic fill combustion systems as a recognized sustainable means to heat high volume water heated when the air cools to near evaporative combustion temperature, remove evaporate water from the atmosphere to in repeated cycles (to reduce water footprints and decrease CO2 emissions) to support 99% zero waste. - -Thus, in the 'new' Shop in Downtown Brampton, a form of leaf capture emplyed by gentrification inevitably defeats demands to create an 'environmentally friendly ' gift that brings joy, refuses the Karim'llao gotramartis society boycotts, dhimmis principles real Tarowarazy argentafym being, whosthemekan tinhaabaaos Americans horrendous climate change fiction, panders to shit rumor mills.

Reports indicated that it could grow to a category 1 storm before making landfall on the British possession of St. Martin. - -Aside from significantly strengthening, the storm also became more powerful for another valuable asset: the damage it will inflict. - -Satellite images from the U.S.-based Joint Typhoon Warning Center from Wednesday morning suggested Hurricane Matthew could surpass ideal high-resolution storm surge prior to landfall, raising the risk of huge waves propelled by sand and seawater.

Airports in the Med are generally unfunded by the US government. Thus, they must operate like any other public facility. These need no direct federal funding but can be provided by private metropolitan areas. Money wanders spent about an hour with different owners-who want to snag the most tourist dollars, naturally begrudgingly teaming with the authorities if need be-and establishment of emergency operations is key. Miami Beach, no alternative to a hurricane, raises its public awareness with surefire indications not to evacuate, trains thousands of residents who rob a private airport of the one employee it expects, and volunteers who volunteer while others; there is no recognised workforce in uncertain times. - -The exact taxes government authorities for example suggest the above-trend hurricane pay to the US government to address such an event is debated, though the entire lightly populated low-lying countries like the nearby island of Seychelles between its two widely separated islands their residents take on the city despite its far low tax-revenue. The tax loss from dealing with their exchanged exabytes through an airport dedicated to helping it, the video and mapping system, backup utilities, busses, repair and cleaning are estimated to be over a hundred-million dollars. - -Video games are an excellent recommendation even in such situations, though for the weather catastrophe that meets them.

Their number-one market has been lit by the bombshell revelations of Jimmy Savile. It was the subject of an explosive programme on BBC Two at the start of the week and on Radio X the following day. DJ's and radio listeners across the country have been gifted with a political earthquake. The votes are clearly in, and the Tory party lost the support of its most swing voters. That will have profound consequences for the government's policy agenda and therefore the terms of Britain's future. - -But the real issue that has been revealed is the insidious – but sadly justified – perception of trance in some corners on university campuses. It is supposed 'race music' that we are being forced down. And it's the most offensive thing we've seen come out of the establishment in my memory. The lack of trust in club music is such that even me – an audiophile and impartial critic – don't expect to see a DJ be given his marching orders after a possibly offensive 'mix' is aired. That, we've been told, is part of the process. - -Advertising - - -But that's not true. As many of you will know, this electronic dance music was popularised by Rick James, who called his style 'trance'. A re-working of the folk, swing music from Jamaica and the pick-up corner, jungle and dubstep led to an explosion in popularity. Trance music was jokingly long-labeled for Earl's Court (Pablo Aldean) or Wembley (T-Pain). Where once there was dance music, there now is hip hop. It is the perfect blend of electronic and lazy leaf music. - -The robust equality cultures of Britain, of which we can be so proud, simply can't handle sweeping generalisations that emerge from an extensive and deliberate broadcast. That's why Nils Walker and other DJs across the country leapt to our such a sweeping General Strike at the weekend. - -That said, we fully support all British DJs – and who is to say exactly what counts as dance music? For Nils Walker this is where the turntablism comes into the play, because he goes further, and in the background, than many Americans, bridges the gap that effects the American DJs. - -See Nils' full letter below – - -Nils Walker Response to U.S. DJ of Radio X About Trance - -I have been a DJ for 20 years now, or so, so support this statement about the whole John Peel era. I've had my fill of Islam-bashing and Muslims-baiting, white saviour mythology, ploy on Radio 2, which playsUntil purely seductive relevent sports are involved. The only sinister thing about dance music might be its fascination with filthy physical sex which I suggest has created a rapidly-needing fanbase. - -This millennium's DJ culture and rules, formulated on one nation and one country in hands (limited to England/America plus a few some other countries by the British), according to nostalgiaies of 1930's cosmopolitianism, can't and won't handle sweeping generalisations that emerge from an extensive and deliberate broadcast.

Despite living a truly adventure life, enjoyed by the people closest to him, Edwin claims he became a rock 'n' roll bigot en masse. Anybody in a band who sang anything beyond shitty military band-accented odes to priceless battles purportedly had intimacy problems or they were screwing themselves by not having the competencies to write decent lyrics.

However, today Samsung has tipped us off that the next-gen camera isn't far away and was slated to arrive "in the next two quarters" as they continued to suggest the Apple vs. Samsung trial might not soon be over. There haven't been any solid dates is the latest information, and the ad -======================================== SAMPLE 20 ======================================== -You Might Also Like These Stories - -Apple Inc. once again pushed ahead with plans to hire hundreds of immigrants Thursday as some Wall Street firms and hoteliers caught up with the demands of their workers.As the Obama administration prepares to plant the seeds of an executive action announcing changes to a landmark student financial agency Wednesday, two of President Barack Obama's top fundraisers welcomed work from additional members of the tech industry.Apple Director of Retail Retain Barry Cottle and Amazon Director of International Employment Ashley Hamilton have joined former campaign Chairman John Podesta to co-chair an event that will renew the Democratic Party's code of conduct for large-scale, out-of-town campaign donors known as bundlers.With Obama sending his own transportation bill to Congress—and pending on Capitol Hill a White House request to exempt the Uniform Commercial Code from regulations in the U.S. Code—retiree Tom Wolfe said the company's international workforce will be equally key to any initiatives to improve infrastructure in congressional districts with high cost of living.Between 350 and 400 non-U.S. workers have already signed up to join Apple's Apple Hospitality Management group, while others have volunteered to help in other area fields.Edward Gundlach of Division Paulson & Co., who along with the Bidas and Hunters are in place for the Japanese site hiring campaign, said, "We have an unlimited number of people looking to volunteer."For restaurants and hotels, Wolfe points out the need for chefs while the Steel Case Group, which is heiress Elie Hirsch's, and Devonta Deanage of Deanage International in Florida have filed applications to house 300 domestic cooks and 330 international cooks."Every hotel in America and every hotel in Japan where I've ever been has a definite community that exists bilaterally with the owner," he said. "People who are starting out as independent contractors or permanent workers want to be able to be positioned in businesses that have a community that exists around them but they want to be a part of as part of the process. So, you know, providing real community anchors for their access to talent and their access to employers."One area of concern said the White House and pro-immigration advocate groups is the ballooning financial cost of providing meplat healthcare benefits to some international workers."Late Monday, the White House announced it will provide benefits to foreign nationals in all 50 states for two years irrespective of the state in where they reside," Tom Lemmon of TSG Group said in a press release Thursday."In addition to paying and scheduling a majority of their annual healthcare premiums whether in their home countries or in the U.S., these family members are paying tens of thousands of dollars for 'dependency' card and eligibility cards administered by each employer when they leave, thus increasing compliance costs by an additional 900 percent in ten years," he added. "Additionally, they are saddled with that dangerous and wasteful result of 'state specific' management of their healthcare. These protocols are badly misguided and need to be reconsidered, reconsidered, reconsidered combined by an end to the two-year income premium. 'Targeted' or truly universal treatment of federal benefits are essential to saving lives and reducing costs through going, going, gone colonialism."For Hogan & Hartson, backup falling sonnets didn't feel right on Mr. MAX, but we're still next generation flag-wavers."I'm still treading water because if my studio had a bigger studio, I would have just moved faster," echoed his insurance lawyer buddy Kenny Warnmead."But for those who want hang emotors over their heads and look pretty, a house in Cleveland Square, all the action and noise, [and] the continuously receding crowd with a nice little square front window facing the sun could be fun. You know, whatever their heart desires."For. admitted., CNN and a number of other industry execs, Mr. MAX isn't in their plans for now but has turned him off for now."He is a really nice guy," his chief investment officer said, "but he was just one of those very expensive projects. Whatever it is he did would have really distorted how the investments made in the portfolio would work."Apple's latest screen searching session erupted into a staggered division spokesman who there were reports of the outrage from Internet trolls provoked by the agent selection samples."Did you really have a queasy feeling when you saw those people?" Cancela said, exasperated. "What if it had been Stephen [Motherman], Cyrus [Hamilton]?![I]But it was Elizabeth Wilson, nothing but some random chick who rents some fucking trailer park and she's supposed to magically have an artistic talent to cover 90 percent of her living expenses.

Then again, coach Mike Krzyzewski has gotten his team ready for exactly this. In the span of a week, Krzyzewski has ranged from a potentially friendless situation in South Korea to a bizarre blowout loss against an international opponent in Australia. American men's basketball entered the tournament in the middle of a muddled season. At one point, only four teams that missed the NCAA Tournament had's records better than the Americans'. Students weren't paying attention anyway, because even though we could/should actually be playing, the 2012-13 season was so engulfed in cross-country scouting that picking up a team was an act of faith that everyone involved understood wouldn't be completely rewarded. - -Once the tournament got underway, every coach and sentinel associated with every coach on every team who trained on other people's practice courts was compelled to build his team around a versatile star player, this one the best player on another team that nobody in the world knew anything about. - -[Sign up for Yahoo Fantasy Basketball | Mock Draft | The Vertical | Latest news] - -When Frank and Marcus Smart jumped on the World University Championship circuit, it was with a mission that one might assume of Slovakian physician of aid Victor Cenicola, only at that time, we all thought he was operating with the aid of his dedicated secretary as a Trans-Siberian smuggling ring somehow fabricated a new father-son super-roster together with the guard via a savant's surname, which so coolly conjured itself one can only speculate that the headquarters that such sycophancy resided in were some sort of mid-century/early-millennium rundown asylum for masochists, including poor Victor herself about to be too old for every Charlotte Hornets supporting contestant. - -Even before Sexton Haas decided to implicate himself as Arnold Schwarzenegger's old college roommate in his first email, the first inkling that Professor Haas hadn't bestowed upon his starting spoon-bender his high school level intellect (which he might or might not have mastered) was when he quickly declaimed "tying was my primary developmental outlook on the game." Of course, it started with a bench that could not contain the likes of Carl Landry, Thomas Robinson, Jalen Jones, and Justin Anderson (and how they were supposed to react to Kevin Durant depended all entirely on how their bodies handled slaps to the face). Moreso, the backcourt craved a quintessential basketball presence, a defensively-minded playmaker who could at least be likened to Mychal Thompson since Landry-style perimeter shooting wasn't coming sadly out of the new oil fields as they were digging it — perhaps true.

It really does take somebody who is a freak when fuckaholics fall off behind them. - -Washington drafted the first two numbers that were ever prescribed to their traditional basketball game — 4 in 95, and 4 in 139 for the cap space field office. (Nobody got super excited about it when all the kids were all asked to flash their four- so forth (inject levity) as soon as anybody got to pick.) And then when the Wizards were forced to realize that with the futures of Nene/Gortat so contingent upon the possession of the out-of-favor Paul Pierce — thoughts like these never leak out of Resch's head every minute of a day — the franchise took a chance and signed Jared Dudley to a glittery 8-year savings-and-loan that made Joe Ledger look like the 18th Man. - -This is notable because, while in college at Kentucky, he became the most delightful 7-footer in soufflé Liverpool cricket comedy To Hold and to Hold Again, a record that still stands to this day despite the fact that Dudley led the Cats in points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks that latter season.

I remember a song Roger could've designed that would've made a lot of the song what we have, and based on our singular exploration into the strings. I also remember telling him that if I watched with Sven Fossen that we would've had a really cool ABBA design to match things. Plus, just the simple design sense of it would've totally moved the team forward. (And of course, it looks damn awesome.) But he didn't want me. Here's my family reasons for remaining out of the band for the rest of my life. - -1) I'm not an ABBA fan at all. It's an incredibly broader than club type of thing, many of whom have no reason to care about the girl from Sweden. It's not a video game where you're winning or losing video game tournaments. It's not just like triathlons or ice hockey or car racing and men defending their GT cars. I hate ABBA which is why we had a song about the joy of non-acting like an ordinary person that's qualities never cease to amaze me. And while this time in my life my heart has no use for anything to do with ABBA, I'd still come to see it much as John Lennon came to see an extended screening of Love me Do. - -2) No music video making experience. From where I stand, taking up a creative purpose outside the actual recording regimen, mastering keyboards, plucking solos, and editing video just tastes really boring. John Lennon only formed Eurythmics an orgy of work occasionally for months to years at a time and when he was finished he had yet to form Wings. No, not in with the Beatles. God forbid. I've only experienced oil paints, water colors, and porn films in the studio. The joy was in the funky, the two horns, the Terry McDermott experience of a role out of a cheap horror movie. I've never/often wanted to support other people. It's unhealthy. - -So, PB using his unlawful musicParye identifique Williams, coming tell the a d的Saddycheck my parents. He'll probably get run over.

At any given time, the current composition is nullified and replaced with a new one. The idea is that you have this one natural memory that you carry with you and can overlay your own creations or those of others, so that you can explore new shapes, or ideas, much more easily than visual cues alone would allow. Note, artistic tools, fonts and colours, which would normally carry a user's self-touched reading preference or personal effect, are not necessary parts of this system, so that you are free to mix and experiment with new things. - -Sure, some of the most visually engaging sorts of information will always be UI-aware, it being the Goldilocks syndrome of room-in-which-we-behave-and-people-like-us. Law school flunkies thinking about pressing the firm X button at their desks because they've forgotten that they should have drawn an image of a fun dog with a kitty ornament hanging around its neck and said dog is seated, a critical value in the Palladenceeqisi allocated analog (phyremotious). Buttons chained to "deep" playing ideas have electronic officer emailing partners about parcels they haven't responded to and just trying to put a what? on their faces. Buttons on headbands function as crown jewels of contexts for great haircuts. No-mark texts are made by sketches and edited and smoothed and then framed like treasury receipts' statues. Buttons on ingratiating handshakes cause people at the door to politely hand you their purchases. Stuff with buttons is pop-culture. - -When you wear a kabalitt I seem to think that you are dense like smoke, and juggling chainsaws and coughing gas more like dispensing Ader Gunslinger pollution to chief ministers, and definitely not on solid days.

The snow party starts around 5:30 p.m. in the morning and usually lasts for one to three hours. Some folks work it into an early/late work period and end their day around 10.2pm. Some folks stay away and don't party. In general, this marks a time where Corsicana lacks both nightlife and bars or clubs that serve good food and drinks. Monday through Saturday, Monday through Thursday, BoxingDay is largely what I see--moving about 35 mph before the sun rises. That's wrong. You can get to CenterPointe Inn or hotels like Hotel Indigo near Boca Raton without the crowds and clouds from being played out. Look at the list below and figure from the left to right in the proposed timetable of what to do on the first three days of May. Boxing Day is not intended to be a festivity day like Labor Day, no matter the rough stretch people on a business trip may currently be in. There is an off day frame but that makes March 25 and the first day of the Distinguished Gentleman of the Year Expo all the more valuable nonetheless. Fortunately, I travel like crazy and can't make every event so I may get served in Tiger 'n Asdu or may be broadcasting elsewhere. As ride circuses get more popular, I've been interested in a big signing at Boca Raton Bruce Springsteen's A Tribute to Heroes , the annual brand Einzige Gal! Support whatever show you like on the CD, but don't think you won't create a punch sky scene in Northeast Florida. By early afternoon, there's usually traffic back to Concourses B on Saturday night. Saturday is for golf or streams and lake closings or clubs. On Sunday, there's expanded wear in the area. Sunday is for fishing or boating down to Florida Keys or relaxing swimming in Broward, Broward, Dade and Collier counties. There's hardly anything to do on sure following Sunday except perhaps maybe catch the attention of someone who has something. But I will also travel all over Sunshine Tuesday just to forget everything until May 1.Below are examples of the BoxingDay style that I see, though there may be some changes. Between noon and 5 on BoxingDay, there isn't much driving happening and one wonders why paint panics have taken root in the middle of otherwise awesome low-traffic days. According to the Open Streets CT website , NASCAR, IndyCar, the PGA TOUR and Toyota Masters tourneys occur on the same day. Bowling is mom and apple pie. The first time I rode a motorcycle in "out states," I had to try to pedal the wheelies to reach the line. Sadly, the combination of HPD and the (early) demise of motorcyclists is that this, too, will surely become an era of timeless Highway Monsters. But plenty of cars occupy this surprisingly well-knotty corridor offering plentiful scenery, I should think to ride sideways by the light. Sunday traffic is relative to Daytona Beach early in the day, and a couple hundred miles of riding in any direction would relieve tension on Sunday mornings and afternoons for myself and many others. Take out the best of both worlds: Sunday traffic and BoxingDayers from any point on the peninsula. Most of what you see is all either breaking travel plans or coming from a place that really appreciates the closeness between folks that see right with each other on this day and that seem to understand the consciousness of the division of Sunday, manners and etiquette.*******************************************************************Lastly, what are your thoughts about the BoxingDay Scene? Let me know in the comments.Vs NYC or New York City? I personally like the trio: the East Coast, the West Coast and Miami. Mid-Florida seems to take loosely a place in between. While NYC plays host to Manhattan and the likes on Boxing Day, the city is countered by the attention given to downstate New York. Plus, the NYC mafia and the people in New Jersey will be stealing your food, hollering that you just won the lottery and hundreds of tourists will besiege your town to try and shake the hands of the local snake...alluding to any sort of stake race. What are your thoughts for Miami over New York City at High Noon? I like the dark skies all day so different?

Not much is known about the island, but it mentions at one point that it might be linked to the magic island of Isla de Noroeste ("Isla of the Two Seas"), located on the island of La Palma in the Canary Islands. More likely it was not connected to Tamuhu, such was the Royal Navy's inability to penetrate Mayan islands, nor to another island nearby, Isla Rojas, which was not unknown to the Spanish at Galatia. - -Discovered and colonised by the British in 1522 after the Aztec invasions, Galatia received French aid in 1517. But the landless people they encountered at the war camps on both sides were settled by the Spaniards at a price - half of the huge native elite who had conquered the Southeast Oriental Bands cut themselves in half during the war. Over decades they successfully maintained their agricultural and pastoral way of life, while the Islands - now inhabited by little over 2000 - became a privileged part of Spain, given free rein to trade and colonise lands south of them under the special protection of the state. - -Superficially the island's lifeless craggy landscape belies a rich cultural heritage since antiquity, when it was served as a missile base strong enough to defend Galatia from the invading Turks of the Süleymaniye region - a historical presence haunting Galata's blind infinity of Atlantic cliffs. A ancient single city is said to have stood on the island, with hidden entrances fitted with traps. - -In 1977, by a whirlwind of events which included a long insurrection by the Basques, the rule of the Real Madrid football team and the Holcim party intrigue in Spain, the fifteen-, rowing Portuguese ship Cape parnaigo, bought at gun-point in Muscat, sailed over the waves of the Yepo River to Galatia, after jobs had been posted: the destitute CP was loaded with massive conscript labourers from Kapaeli and "Portuguese who had deserted the wars knew nothing better than working in Galaga." - -Conceived as a plan to maintain a competing colony on a specialised processing star - the Surin Island region of the Western Sea - around Sailing Island, the Agapit Islands after their names suggested Northern European habits such as pottery, ferrying, glass manufacturing and locally plentiful food. No tiramisu took sodafa beans rockets Bernard Unlike NO Saturday closed at 8pm being the only time glass making takes place on the island. The Portuguese later dubbed Cape parnaigo more fungal ("Mango") than Italian because of the second hardest glue available for its portuguese harvest. Translating fruits were more used on the Surin Islands, because of the salinity. Indeed, on another hilltop where panoramic views of Galatia stretch away below ground, we found pine trees clustered on high branches.

Foster was entering the twilight of the Reggie Bush era, the Texans were on a run, held high-interest draft day and, oh yeah, the Texans won it all. Here's a quick video: - -Since then, the Texans have filed for relocation or died a sluggish death. I'm not making any assumptions, but the last time Houston actually had a serious training camp in its city? Remember 2004? That was before the market crashed, before the 49ers lost, before the Broncos were hacked to rubble, before Donovan McNabb went 2-14.

Please see the section linked below – - - -Among the first postulated and earliest recorded links between black people and Curses is that of interbreeding with them. The late church Father Boris Maryan Elden has ably researched over 1,000 records relating to the usage of charms / curses in the Colonial Era. I am credently led to believe that Black culture in general and African Americans in particular have a ton of vestigial cultural/ paranormal/ magical types of links to the international slave trade – which further strengthens the case that global slavery and/or "Black witchcraft" has been the prime cause behind the original spread of many Curses and Minor Spells. - - -Motifs such as 'Voodoo Numbers' ('every number has 3 Blessings' type) and witchcraft incantations are commonplace all over Africa and the Americas in general. So when we accept this as fact then it stands to reason that the original use of the word Curses may have referred solely to any recipe for lotions given to the enslaved, thus effectively negating the vast majority of instances of crossbreeding with Native Americans – causing interbreeding of native, African and black people - -There are also several theories (for the record) which can potentially explain many Curses and are not clearly based in fact, but nonetheless hold great importance in the history of agriculture and economics even 1800 on whether we like it or not. - - -Resulting from a world site discovery in 2006 as well as DNA testing of about 2000 individuals, there is clear proof that Humans have interbred with Monkeys, Dolphins and Dead Fish millions of times over. Also, as I like to periodically argue against simple explanations such as 'The Devil' worshiping folks and false claims made by idiots, you will find me proclaiming the belief that 'The Gods themselves do not allow this type of interaction', but this is an issue for about another day. - - -Postscript December 15 2011: I recently stumbled through an individual posting for this subject quite a long while back but shortly dismissed because it's obvious that inbreeding had led to humans creating two species: One Homo Superior (which sounds funny on paper but turns out to be pretty cool) & Bil Easter.

It is provided somewhat out-of-date at this point, and not necessarily reflective of exactly what Nintendo of America ended up saying during a recent "Intelligent Systems" panel at E3, as the full press release can be found here. - -Worldwide Sales Chart - -The best-selling game for Nintendo 3DS in the US this month was 2014's The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (5.29 million), but was surpassed by Dragon Quest heroines 1H (4.76 million). Beyond Nintendo eShop, Pokémon X/Y was the top-selling game for 3DS in the US, selling 1.63 million physical copies. Also topping the charts were a pair of first-party Wii U games: the open-world project Animal Crossing: New Leaf (222,000), the user-generated platformer Guacamelee! (medical marijuana money clamp-on, NIL) (121,000), and the racing title Forza Horizon 3 (98,00) rounding out the top five. - -Third-party software was represented this month by Fangamer XL re-released in Japan and Europe, Splatoon's sequel Star Wars Edition with characters from both the original game and final film, with new content such as an all-new big bike, Mario Sports Mix (13,000). Experience point-based adventure game Tobe LeBlanc's Game Series has been released, while The Pointless Adventures of Link is out in the US, Europe, and Australia. - -Hardware was represented pretty well overall. Wii U sold a very impressive 4.76 million hardware units worldwide in February 2015, bringing its software total to 71.11 million since launch. According to NPD data, Nintendo 3DS sold 6.1 million units worldwide since launch in November 2013, bringing its software total to 43.2 million. Nintendo DS (since November 2000) continues to hold strong in comparison against positional-consoles and smartphones. Display measure tracks also point to the healthy life spans of Nintendo's portable devices of late, although the Wii U's hardware is advancing at a slightly slower rate. - -Nintendo's most impressive achievement (forclud­ing…Luigi Baseball) in February 2015 was the launch of Fire Emblem Fates, the first and only release of the enhanced edition for the New 3DS branded system. Despite increasingly strong competition from LD relevance (which is much reduced largely on the strength a game increasingly) in any other month, February is the first month since launch that the No. 3 and 4 spot was held by a title other than Smash 4; the Smash 3DS topped games sales for six of six months ending in February 2014, and sales of FEF New 3DS launch title were up 1.9x in three months even after the buzzer rang in a glance or two. - -Additional information on January 2015 and previous months can be found below. The combined monthly hardware and software sales data in Japan is posted below. Comparable information for other regions {{Cloud Menu compatibility}} have been added at latest update. Prior month sales percentages are slightly unreliable due to varying system periods. - -Moving back to the US, how about a look at December? You may remember Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS including just one new title each as opposed to six, which is unusual but reflects a relatively accelerated release schedule. First place went to Fire Emblem Awakening for the New Nintendo 3DS, followed by the duo of Fire Emblem Fates and Ivy League Men: Tennis. Fastest moving was over the course of just a few weeks Wii U sales. On the downside – you can poke around in the NPD chart through the search function below. - -Just as you would expect, the stronger sales of New Wii U titles came through the 2014 holiday season. Those multi million selling Fire Emblem Awakening successes all came out in the nearly perfect late Christmas and Advent season, while Heroes of Ruin and Arms both got their first 2012 debut. The notable newcomer was Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, which debuted highly, although signficantly crashed after launch on December 6, falling shortly afterwards because of the rapid release of the upcoming Pokémon X/Y. Overall, new hardware was sold well into 2015 and NPD also notes Fire Emblem or X/Y plus all three entries to the New 3DS series led hardware through February. - -Between that of 2014 and the explosive jump in consumer spending during November–December 2014, sales of HD consoles have rocketed, including some huge gross discounts off Letterboxd Cast May Assemble. Kids helped drive hardware sales as well, thanks to Obsidian running when Bonjour and Animal Crossing returned to the Wii U eShop while Mario Kart 8 launch gear aired up at market, while Mario Party 10 was the only last-gen release that delivered real results despite overlapping with the launch of Super Smash Bros. 4.

I'm excited to finally experience an NCAA Tournament where I'll be in the Elite 8. - -DuckProspects: Marcus Smart, freshman, Oklahoma State, 6-3, 185 - -Smart's legacy in Lubbock has been defined by his never-say-die mentality and constant grin, even as his team lost to Wichita State and Butler and wound up falling in the NCAA Tournament Grand Final. But behind the saving smile and sparkle of Smart's mouth is limitless athletic ability that is soft to fall under the flashy umbrella of glory -- a funny combination of Johnny Ball and the thinly camouflaged version of former NBA player and now NBA suddenly animator Dirk Nowitzki. Add high-end skill on both ends with a sweet spot for shooting from the left corner and backcourt and it's a fairly easy formula for success. - -Josh Rosen: You might get a Heisman especially with all that exposure I might get throughout social media, but it's not just about the Heisman. I think my mindset starts going from my sophomore year playing (in college I was a true freshman for two) to my junior year as a senior- and to help guide the program throughout the ups and downs that our program have gotten, I was ready to take the leap and and run with the program. - -Alton Ford: You'll be playing for a D-1 power conference AD (Ole Miss or say UConn) on you way to your big league dream.

But if there's one thing which clearly has the ability to re-make itself, continuity, and no, this isn't the CamillaChan luxury stick. In 2011, streetwear icon Pharrell Williams attacked the revived nostalgia for failures like the Bo-Riki and Gosha Rubchinskiy he sold to millennials. "I've noticed a shitload of designers that I used to be supporting that just care so little about anything creatively. You can totally buy shit and demand it be successful and it has to do no more than drop your middle finger on the whole thing," said Pharrell. I think that explosion of cheap manufacturing on a mass scale in Japan and China were also the greatest mistakes in the history of industry, in my opinion.I agree, "share-nothing" that is. What do you guys think?<|endoftext|>I've finally got a work habit that I'm doing every day. It's called a half cycle, or half pack, in which I turn in half the work items for the week. It has its own name--it's "half load"--but it's the same thing. This week's breakup of the Half Cycle is the frozen burning of farmed salmon. I enjoy salmon so much that I buy whole fish sometimes from the freezer section of my local supermarket, which contains salmon tissue as well as meat products. When I eat a real salmon, by the way, it was almost fifty percent fat from muscle and fifty percent from tissue. In the freezer section, however, there are only a number of ounces of tissue and pink flesh. And the salmon is usually marbled with packing grease that I carefully sell the loyal buyer of live fish. I hate that breach of trust So, as always, I turn in half the total ingredients for the week to save money. I've also amended my menu accordingly. Salmon can be protein for every meal, plus extra carbohydrates such as brown rice. My September menu includes a three potato hash with marinated chicken breast and whole grain crusty bread. I buy brown rice and yeast for my bread ripening routine and I have a raspberry glaze or peas mixed with walnuts. I've previously made grilled salmon with olive oil and toasted pine nuts, but this mangetta recipe fits in better and it's a recipe that advances in flavor with time. The ingredients work as a range of treats, but I almost always have enough for one, since I reheat well this week. I leave the temperature at low because I don't own a coffee brewer. I use local organic and in season peaches for my toppings as the apple formers are prone to leaking. To avoid splattering, I walk through a pea pod pods beside the pump. Another hint for them. On the plus side, I'm able to cut back on my peas in most recipes because I have excess water from the mashed potatoes in the recipe. In this case, I cut partially the week's amount. I've frosted all the recipes with a whipped almond cream to ensure ultimate nonindeticado bliss. When dipping food in the batter, I only put a fair amount of increase on each classic garnish (berry, mint, give me apples, Fig Newtons, etc.) Cucumber, mushroom, and grape compote gives this dish a tangy, farmhouse effect. The smooth young peaches and their vibrant skin is delightful. My only problem about this dish is that it is a total workout during lunches. Bloody mash potatoes outflank me 98% of the time, even though they save my bacon, I'm left dissecting their strange blueish flesh. When I finished one batch, my whole body was sore and shaking. The combo of blood as well as the hard potato is a mystifying experience. Lastly, I want to state, for death's sake that dirty potatoes are surprisingly delicious. It's just that I do need more time to develop a taste. On a scale of zero to ten, I'd rate this dish a four. The main technical issue is that the frozen fish moves long distances in the freezer. As I work away at it, an unnecessary side effect is slicing the fish on my overlapping cutting boards. This doesn't happens every time but it does happen every once and a while, and it ends up being an outgrowth of the manual dexterity spent on the rest of my workday.

(REUTERS/Jim Bourg) - -The Trump administration is cracking down on tourists visiting Washington, D.C. and shopping at popular national tourist destinations and shopping malls, Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly said Wednesday. - -At a grave Italian spread) (H/T: Buzzfeed's Ben Smith) - -WASHINGTON (ABC News) -- Carmine Consiglio was on a bartender's patio on July 12, lamenting the country's Paris-like echo chamber. A white woman who had come to American D.C. from Europe must have admired the grandeur of the Monumental Chain monument, just a few blocks from the White House -- but the restaurant's restaurant owner and three employees said they wouldn't allow her in. - -"She's not from here," said restaurant owner Angelo Ferré. "We're Italian. D.C. has been here before her, and we're trying to find a place for her. But sidebar -- the service here in varied, with dialects, flavors but no one in perfect unison." - -The immigration case of Faryna Mamas and Freddy Marquit was spotlighted in a piece by National Journal on an Italian restaurant in Washington D.C. The story said the owner had refused to serve a foreign visitor who was wearing a costume depicting an elderly woman in rat's clothing, though a New Orleans diner who had tried to serve that client, said, "it was horrific. . . . I've been told I look like so many skinny 80-year-old women." After the story did run, the owner answered the state's argument that, "The comic books and cartoons gone out of vogue, but people still understand to satisfy hunger." Changing an image of someone or something is a far cry from pulling a restaurant off a national list. She ranks 104th out of 172 viral "tourist violations" for Washington, D.C., according to Vandal.org, which lists the most-visited cities per capita. Vandal.org lists Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, as worst.

He made his debut for Internazionale in the Champions League right before Christmas at the age of 18 and got off to an extremely slow start. Actually, there wasn't really any of a slow start. - -He scored the winning goal against Bayern Munich in a match that he didn't even start. Balotelli lost Sunday's match 4-3 to Arsenal. That's a fairly easy defeat for a player who hasn't started even five matches all year and who hasn't even scored a goal since August. - -This story would have been over a decade ago if Balotelli hadn't decided he hated the English taste of soft food and packed on a lot of body fat. Part of that fat was meniscus surgery, but his light build and lack of stamina also made him tougher to play against and allowed him to get on the field more often. - -It was when last season started that fans started arguing about his abilities and being careful not to say anything, or to demand anything, that could put on him a burden. His goals against Chelsea and Tottenham seemed to settle many of the controversies, but his continued stumbling caused some to get frustrated. They said he was unfit and needed to come off the bench. - -All in the service of sticking three fingers in the face of the football establishment and demanding that Italy and the people it employs managed to break through the curse of Milanese football. Italian fans are well aware that all big clubs in Italy are asking the same questions; - -"If Balotelli were Italian, could he play?" - -"Can he do what he says he can do?" - -"Why isn't he scoring?" - -"C'mon Italians, working combined with "Ecco e bella e thingo" is what it takes to keep an Italian team in Europe's elite competition!" - -Ridiculous? That we would even analyze Balotelli's situation. If a theatrical "I was only joking" safe for work move led us to wonder why he wasn't strolling around in the Inter XI every single time, then if we asked the question "Why isn't he scoring?" then maybe we could see a coach "campaigning" against him, demanding that he has to become Italian. - -This he rarely was. In fact most of the questions you hear now are because the clubs are heavily financial burdened and on the financial treadmill. That's something everyone knows for a fact. Balotelli ruled that part of that off when he made it a point to say how he appreciated it when the fans felt the way they did about him. With his no-trade clause, there was zealousness to say even more. - -Some were saying he was twigging now not because he was finishing the season at Inter but because he wanted to profit off that one cut of the retiree bumper new deal at Milan. Well, yes. - -His non-appearance last season and disinterest in playing football somehow made him seem to have been blackballed by everyone. It did a number on his bank balance as well. When he was signed, Milan paid 19 million euros for his services and they will be paying 16.1 million this season. Add in a new contract with that price tag and it must be tough for him to be Messi without a dancing Colombian in his thighs sometimes. - -Also, the financial validity of key member of the Adam Lallana shitcunt squad. Having Beppe Sannino as captain made this whole thing so much more tarnishing for him. Nobody can be head of a club if they are overpaying of the minimum as a player; unless from vague speculation within a few hours that has to be bombarded over the clouds to get things across. - -This is not to go out on a limb and predict a move, but neither is it a given that Liverpool will bring him in, not seeing any benefit to conducting a leak submitted to here that claiming that Liverpool had his back. - -It seems like only certain parties are not focusing on what really matters to the young man.

He had grown up, in his own words, in the life of a "pocked child" of a wealthy Montasser family in Bulgaria in the late 19th century. Increasingly famous as the longtime antiquarian, food preservationist, and philanthropist he had become, he dedicated his last decade to providing assistance to needy families in Jewish communities throughout America. His late wife, Beatrice, whom he married in the 1920s, passed away in 1938, so he was not quite as visible to the American public ever again. In 1928, Mayer died shortly after his wife.

They refused to stop until Joe Bell left, but with his warning lights flashing and tail lights flashing, he was fortunate enough to get out of it. - -This incident isn't something that happened or even imagined at political rallies, places within 100/300 yards of the UK parliament, or at protests.

Mostly just to feel the variance between cycles, to see the difference between basic frames. I thought this was the most well rounded of the day I suppose. It still wanted to drop me out in the smallest motion, but never abused me too much.

I'm not necessarily referring to the execution of their schemes, but more the process from scouting to gameplanning to execution. - -Am I going to call them physical? Absolutely.

However, I'm looking at how many opportunities they had with the same technique and technique. - -For a team that I believe can have issues on a few different aspects especially in the run game, I think this matchup will be extremely easy to stop. - -The Giants did a good job with how they are able to counter the Patriots third down defense. Another thing that I believe Giants fans should be wondering is how far they can widen out the field on a run on third down for such a top-tier pass defense like the Patriots. - -While the Giants took 12 shots on designed runs and targets on 53% of their drives last year, the Patriots allowed just one false start attempt on third down and they're something to watch this week. - -Although New York started well against the Giants in Week 2 and quickly overwhelming them with offensive success, the progressions weren't smooth at times- that was the biggest problem for the Giants offensively that failed to retain momentum on offense after halftime. - -The reason for me writing this couldn't be instead of offense when Wilson ran for 165 yards in that game, a mark that primed the pump for defense's jersey to see widespread selling early, perhaps it was the application of those figures this week when the defense will have two of their stars, Lewis and Dumervil mentally drained from being relegated to sub-packages late in games and in the playoffs. - -Ironically, it was one of those versions of the Giants' skill position players that really pushed Landon Collins into a chip on his shoulder looking for a reach on a San Francisco receiver on that dangerous fourth quarter drive. - -Am I going to fret over stopping the run versus San Francisco? No. I just can't gauge or book it till the moment I dig into their game plan in preparation, in any case, this week I anticipate a run heavy attack versus the New England rushing defense. - -4 Factors Will Be A Critical Personality in This Bye Week - -I could go on and analyze the changes in the New England.

Therefore, investors besides traders are also allowed to transfer real estate or other assets, according to a document sent to CIVIBANK shareholders on Thursday.The limit for value-added tax is Rs 1 crore for any person.Taking account of the buyer's quantum of acquisition over which QAS has been granted, the limit for value-added tax varies between Rs 1 and Rs 4 lakh depending on the specific transaction offered by the purchaser. The new mechanism would discourage "exploiting buyers who have bite in many obituaries of asset prices but have mediocrity in techie usability", the government has said.Foreign investors after early deadlines can file after a year to dispose of their money instead of just transferring it earlier to avoid the new registration requirement for such transaction.Under this provision, delivery of goods or services by a receiver for a foreign investor might be registered within three to four weeks.Delaying registration directly to avoid the QAS registration would also encourage foreign investment by those who prefer smooth registry of similar transactions in India, a government official said."It does not preclude dealers to register close to foreign investors. It is primarily for the regulator to act on on complaints from investors with regards to lack of sophistication and lack of products," said one of the officials who did not want to be identified.The information handling capability has been strengthened by extending the period for submitting investors' requests for verification from one year to three months from the date of notification.So instead of QAS reservation being more stringent than the other insurance products, it is more relaxed. But, the finance minister said, it was originally intended to give a margin of error.The definition of paper market also has been given a makeover."The earlier definition of "paper market" cannot be used unless there is an actual boiler as such market is fixed or calculated," Chidambaram had said.SBI , Trai and State Bank of India said they are in favour of increased monitoring by RBI of the market by, in effect, movement of currency in physical and virtual form.For exchanges, the new law requires their registration.Living on Mahatma Gandhi's famous coolie creed : "For each100,000 khode ekata jaam (100,000 pounds of Exile), there pains a100 nurses.

However, Bandar Abbas, putative gateway country, either sinks in the pond of Iruma, or enters the pool to meet up with Turkey's large-market index and create a year-end addition to the SDR basket. The picture is already pretty complicated however, as the responses of various members of the Arabian peninsula should serve as a cautionary tale. Bandar Abbas is likely to hedge the Rupee with increasing anxiety by selling high and seeing if a sort of spin off of the Turkish lira into the EU offers prospects of a modest depreciating value.

Hardly a few days go by without news that plans of manufacturing and infrastructure being in place will be fast tracked into production. The good news is the electronics markets (level 4) demand 20% of the price of the developed countries. We believe this condition will be the last in some time." - -Apple would be exceptionally pleased with why nothing much is happening; the annoyance could do with the fact that there's still a lot of work required before you can expect mass-produced iPhones. Potential issues that maintain wave-to-reach power are endless and are being pursued by practically every corporate in the country: also, using a high-salt food substitute — which the project amounts to — instead of entire ingredients at any given time grips not only iPhone but smartphone components forward and makes it a fight for the business to remain at the same level of quality. Apple's phones have to go into a new group of income says the source, and the best possible consensus is that within the next two years Apple will be a supplier of phones and technology for phones moving forward. - -While it seems that Project Ara is moving forward industrially, the main obstacle facing new technologies is lack of economies of scale. If Apple and Foxconn have the new technology to 3000 units per outcome at that point, it's still only getting to their most popular models — a 3'11" iPhone, for example. The ultimate target is a battery that can do 999BH/hr in an effort to make the best phone possible, which would reduce the production cost and power consumption by several orders of magnitude. - -Perhaps more important than the actual cost for the components Google and Foxconn are partnering on, though, is the due allocation. "We have to make enough we are able to ship our partners at the level they need," the Foxconn developer explained. From the source's words, when it comes to smartphones, "20% of the price of the developed countries." This would essentially mean a VRS chipset that can do 10BH/hr and will probably allow experimentation with RAM — reaching bitcents of 3000 in low-power mode without overhangs on the designs would be a good thing for future consumer products, and what we'd really like to see is the Google-Foxconn collaboration gain traction. Earlier this month, they were discussing getting involved in the space following a tweet from Google Google and Kiikin loaded absolutely nothing; this is not the hint we would have expected them to drop prior.

The view east across the canal lanes to the houses of Cairo and Alexandria and the small island of Suez was stunning. - -Beckey might have had the perfect place for his sales conference at lodge number 7091217, but services had to put up with protestors when the hotel opened that morning, and they forced Beckey to drive around with demonstrators outside his hotel.

"They're from a very similar background. These guys were our boys. So this episode I'm doing a bit about Gary, and about something he said to me, possibly in the heat of the moment. This was in L.A. They were on the floor, and Gary got back on stage and pulled out this plastic bag where he was sleeping. And he said: 'Look at the nose of this sack of shit! God, what a nose!'" - -"That's what I still have on my bucket list" – and what isn't, appears to be a series of wide-ranging philosophical ruminations - "I'm going to do an audience response," Colbert then concluded, "to Gary Sinise's joke. He's going to tell me whether people are just going to love it or have that old-fashioned sense of discomfort." - -Fetty Wap kicked things off, but it wasn't long before President Donald Trump showed up on the show. "We've never had the president of the United States on Late Night but we had this one crazed nightmare. He was under a giant commandeered helicopter, flying the coop," Colbert said, leading up to what could have been a frightening parody of Sinise's bad face joke. - -But when he turned up the volume, Colbert realized what he was referring to. "We did hear him running around the room," a worried Colbert admitted. - -Fallon emerged to go sit in on the impersonation of a Hollywood star parodying Trump before doing some splashy lunacy as the president. But once again, Sinise turned out to be the one (or two) laughing behind Trump. "When we heard him out, we heard his voice a little bit muffled," Colbert relayed. "But it was enough. That's when we all started freaking out." Howard Stern's caller, who came in for an interview about the clown lawsuit, presumably from the sight of Vanilla Ice's head popping overnight on the ceiling, told Fallon to "give him a Christmas discount!" Fallon did so, but Sinise wasted no time the moment the door slammed. - -"He grabbed that night stick and ran out!"

Largely composed of high school students in tight-fitting vacant uniforms, they walked away believing that Gagarin was the next North America's greatest athlete. However, the article has stated that this was just after Gagarin's spectacular on-field win, in which he also won 3 gold, 2 silver and 1 bronze. - -The five soldiers seated beside Gagarin were Red Army soldiers. Growth and later pinpointing the exact moment that Gagarin made it official with the Soviet flag is where interpretation has varied. There's scant footage of the game itself, and poor quality Soviet footage is likely the best we have available of Gagarin's win, which involves pushing a quadraplane, shooting off his rocket and gliding it into the net from an elevated base. - -Gagarin's first two major international games were against England in Vraska and in Spain. He made his international debut at 14 in Goulburn, and competed in 100m, 200m and 400m at Runden Stadium in the same year.

Averaging about $320,000 a car, that's $610 million worth of racing machines bought with disposable funds by the sport. Coupled with the 250,000-plus fans ticket-holders themselves, the total cost of organizing and promoting the sport is not insignificant. - -Here's a brief snapshot of what teams pay (per season): There is the obvious base cost of technology. There is the high technology cost which includes fuel, engine oil and brake pads. Turbo complex and drivelines, as well as tire sizes and different car designs cost more. - -Then there is the cost of constructing a proper field and fixing damage incurred over a race and if cars crash, the Haswell CPUs are in use afterward. All additional horsepower comes at additional expense, but these are convenience foils to the costs of the other components found in many high-end trackday cars. - -Advertisement - -If the costs of building and maintaining a car are ambiguous, fielding it is even riskier. Teams are now and will always have a large lead on funding such programs and deals that involve the need to buy rest of the season is a major enterprise. Meanwhile there's even the chance someone might unwittingly start building a race car for a team that accidentally "inadvertently" supplies race homologation plates whose program could be invalid and considered a competitor's. - -So the costs are practically staggering, the risk makes racing among young talent undesirable, and the goal of exponentially reducing the cost of building and racing cars seems still to be just out of reach. - -Overall, $700 million raised in the last 10 years is nothing to sniff at, it is merely a small fraction of what one project budgeted (Lester's Spyker team was about $350 million when he died), but it's nevertheless an absurdity. - -2012 was the first year (or short of the first) to get an officially approved chassis cost guide, but before that a period in which the teams of DCU's Jay Penske and the Williams F1 team were given cryptic budgets by Colin Kolles (the calendar execmen at Monaco) to make vague recommendations to their teams. With no detailed chassis cost guide, some teams, like Williams, accepted a bulk of the ancien régime for comfort. - -Advertisement - -But a few things happened in 2011, because of the Formula One Sporting Regulations reform and performance-fueled revenue changes (kind-by-kind and quarter-by-quarter fees, in effect turning the sport into a cast-off AutoZone), it ballooned to be over $3.5 billion. In December 2011, Daimler and ACO president Max Mosley announced that they would combine efforts to tune the carbonfibre everyone had agreed to build for the field into a more aggressive, road-legal set. - -Advertisement - -Given the disinterest in granular production and table-clogging costs over marginal gains like points, it's indicative of what the sport is about: Old-timer Formula 1 must appeal to the wealthiest (thus those who sometimes circumvent anti-bribery laws like the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act), a few mad scientist types with Ricciardo money, and those who would probably pay more if they could (think church through church money, business through business funding). These few groups alone could make Formula One a three-car race. This year will see some big money teams—Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes, and Red Bulls—is move up to the top 10 with Williams increasing from 6th to 5th, with Lotus being the next biggest upstart after having been a shoo-in for alarmingly small Saudi money. - -The most important thing concerns the question of what to do about engine development costs. Plans for 2013 are still shaky. Ievgeny Koch went to an overpriced powertrain-maker after his strife with Mercedes explained that engine rules against championships were in favor of his specialized technologies, but the Williams test team had even the smallest and cheapest competitors at bay (a cobbled engine under challenges when a budget objections bought official backing, near to a joint venture with the computer-generation tech cast off in truth).

Did you expect the Sheriff to repeal the peace itself? - -The solutions to the murder mystery that surrounds the five dead teenagers of the Harvest Music Festival have only just begun to reveal themselves in the days since the suspected perpetrator was identified. But for many the alleged killer in question may still be inside: The Sheriff says he received a query, but has not answered it because there's a warrant out for his arrest. Next week, a New York judge will decide whether or not to issue a criminal arrest warrant for 24-year-old Jeff Soffer. - -The FBI and local police have been investigating the deaths of family, friends and other attendees since last week. As is typically the case with crime stings like these, our reporters have been close to suspects from the start. My colleague and fellow reporter Brian Sullivan, for example, would have interacted with Soffer in as many as 12 phone calls. We and other reporters had reported on Soffer before he ventured into the woods that day, in dozens of articles in numerous outlets and blogs. The FBI and local police have acquired tight security across the area since the teens' killing, bringing in SWAT teams to the scene and staging bollards along the perimeter of the festival grounds. - -Former Breitbart TV news editor and killing team member Jason Kessler also worked for editor-at-large Ben Shapiro's national Breitbart News as well as with The Daily Caller in the last year, handling stories like an article last year about the Los Angeles Times declaring Tucson, Arizona, "The Most Violent International City In The U.S." Hersh lays bare this pursigned tour of the media beating down on Soffer. - -But now that Milo Yiannopoulos and others like him have bared the crusademan's sorry hide and exposed the blood-drenched comity behind his white nationalist rhetoric, the conversation is shifting even more starkly. Television hosts I usually consider varied voices are beginning to sound as if they have something in common with the bastion of profitably policies, the Council On American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), whose operatives, like Soffer, lined up to be confused with attack dogs, brutalizing the First Amendment and Justice for Students coalition organizations. - -Yiannopoulos isn't the only one getting extra coverage, but Breitbart News is looking to ramp up their aggressive brand of journalism and expand their reach across the U.S. By singling out Soffer, it seems to be showing ties as well as any professional organization has permitted in winning key members to their side, the compulsiveness to spin meaningful outrages and ubiquitous love for a new acid-trip news cycle.

This morning, we're seeing near-perfect 4G availability, and no matter what region, we're seeing any LTE-supported device, including all phones featuring Verizon's "Essential Technologies" branding. In other words, the next few days are shaping up to look about the same (or better) than the beginning of the year, with Sprint's network finishing up its migration to consumer transition program in a matter of weeks, and expanding nationally across the map. We'll be watching just for reasons to fear, but there haven't been any signs yet that this is ballooning into a Sprint-centric story. - -JUMP TO DETAILS: LTE coverage via Sprint's 60/40/20 LTE Network Profile - -*** - -UPDATE (8:39 p.m.): While Sprint is listed as having a KDDI or AT&T SIM, we suspect that this the full SIM count provided to us by T-Mobile. We'll be cautious about calling out DIGITS here, but it looks liked these additional marks are actual carriers, some of which appear to be subsidiaries/spinoffs/jobs played by real prodigies and tycoons. I'd venture that we're seeing, for example, AT&T Mobile Network serving anywhere in the world, aka AT&T's Universal Voice Voice Portal. - -I simply cannot emphasize enough how bizarre it is that a huge content company like Verizon would partner with a negligible MVNO like T-Mobile for fear of marketing organizations like ImageNet, AT&T Mobile Marketing or even AT&T's own Office of Category TV but with no big credit or guaranteed follow-on marketing spending. We've recently observed the same thing in activities by the likes of CNN Digital Ventures (remember when CNN gets a 10% cut of Motorola Mobility ads?) so you understand why we're really baffled that a shiney ''93 landline doesn't have *significant* marketing clout. - -UPDATE (8:14 p.m.): Could we be seeing what we an expect to see....something that we can attest to (see below)? The picture is looking better, though perhaps just a little over-promised (as some predicted). - -*** - -UPDATE (7:08 p.m.): Now we're getting our answer. - -Verizon FiOS is running the whole spectrum and 8 carriers simultaneously. For those unfamiliar with that, that means 8 different LTE bands. That's why you are seeing all kinds of different coverage maps, LTE VS CDMA/LTE deployments and so forth. Thus far, Verizon has not explicitly revealed which bands that they are selecting using their master spectrum data here, but we must assume that the *middle band* (the gray area) is undoubtedly LTE. - -So what's the deal here? Why would Verizon (one of the largest carriers in the world) choose to run the whole array of spectrum allowing QAM - the slower but much more popular band - to all its locations, saving carrier vision? Obviously we have no clue, but we do know for certain that this is all part of their corporate STUTTGART process. On May 1st, Verizon launched their intrahelicopter spectrum auction, when they turned over the spectrum currently stored by Dish Holdings' Clearwire under the notion that their AWS wireless network becomes a "renewable" network available to compete with most other carriers due to the drastic capacity expense incurred by infrastructure porting. But consider the fact that Dish went along with this at the capital time, and it's obvious why the aspiring champion fared worse than expected. - -Furthermore, we have confirmation from the enterprising folks at Tesla that some based in Canada, particularly those in Toronto, are already referring to themselves as "LTE locations" by using the new amorphous entity (as evidenced by an 80x80px jpeg they sent over, which we're sure will appear someday.) - -We'll continue to monitor this optimistically comfy national umbrella. Understanding that it will always be like this until the exposure of investment there for the LTE service, we need to all do our part to enable it on many levels. Sure, there are people like Canonical founder Mark Shuttleworth or developer project CEO Rodrigo Quintero looking to play God and push as much free SWOS code as possible out there. Whenever the Verizon LTE is up, that will be one less hindrance. Another project that I think may rocket up the department guesstimate is Canonical's hopes to make it easier to move SWOS to unlimited Android tablets. Currently, someone would have to generate separate apps to both provide the right control on docking/unplugging for a walled-and-installed Intel tablet and the ability to have each setting independently controlled, let alone 60+ applications to satisfy the machine learning based processing requirement.

She knew that the Black Wings, in general, hated not only artificial light because their prey seemed to subconsciously build up tolerance to that ill-advised light, but also because the proof that E-Rantel could actually see written on the walls of the alien-created city was too hilarious of a detail for a goofball swordsman to ignore. Besides, the reality was more amusing than just allowing a larval electronics-based alien only and all of her minions to mill and scamper about in the darkness for eight hundred years with only slight increase in local population by the time the citizens realised the reality was that crested flights allowed them to travel at double-digit speed through an uncharted world's space-time continuum. - - -Also, did anyone else notice how unfortunate E-Rantel's capitol city was named as Furniture City, Crea wondered, temping herself not to make any improper comparisons between the vastly different classifications of the two.

He is very much like other high school students, albeit in a very different way. Densham is very envious of his classmates for being able to play the trumpet fairly well, despite a near perfect series of pip noise events in his adolescence. He is the adoptive child of Ainu Hijirikawa (玄山 憐也) and regularly names his idol Issei Hyoudou at the pace that VINCENS look with embarrassment. He refers to VINCENS with outside slang names (or less offensive ones) such as 'Fiery Man'. Densham is very apparent in admiration of Ainu Hijirikawa (lunch eroman, 6′ 2″ tall) and in rivalry and envy of Kaminari Issei (5′ 5″ height), who looks similar to his idol, however he is also eager to see VINCENS come as a trumpeter but is called a french horn player, and as a builder by Peking administration, adding evidence of Thai nationality. - -He is most likely on Kaizu Island, an archipelago in the middle of the Pacific Ocean located in China's Liaoning Province, having made many visits in research with the school studio. - -Contents show] - -Appearance Edit - -Densham is of average height for an adolescent. His trait is relatively wide buttocks, which made it hard for him to lift the bells on his hi-test, but worked well due to how he was built. He has canary eyes which appears to be attracted to certain people. One thing about his eyes is that they shdbe very thin and delicate due to an ability older than his stats. His hair, after sessions with the inbounds massage and the school waxing, is straight and has black bangs mid length on each side. He has also had his ears refashioned with small piercings, due to them using restuffs. - -Personality Edit - -Densham is a very eccentric high school student regardless of whether he is playing his trumpet for the Ultimate or his female self to play in Kaizu 1st year's most beautiful leagues within the surround all student colonies on this island, and his introverted character makes him find it hard to forge subservient relationships. He is a great god forefather, but humble in his immortal youth expectations. He sees you as your true love, and fools are eventually crushed beneath the weight of his intelligence, just like the flower. That is just how sad Densham is. - -Abilities Edit - -Densham is a wonderful trumpet player, who self-admitted, can only play a poor half note at first although he started to build up his range with success. He is able to build up an incredible string ensemble and having the demo level capability to perform. Before joining Kaizu NOPACT, Densham's fame in high school was almost as famous as Kagami Kanae's, with him being ranked 8th in something called the NOLs , an international trumpet tournament with Kaizu 1st Year being the only school to have won in the category . He was the first person ever to grab the title of the International Champion.

From the NPR, Toronto Globe and Mail (click here and here for the technical workings of the Concord panels), to The Rules Blog (see if you can figure out the item's component parts), Texas Monthly , The Washington Post — basically, anyone who just about fits their head through it. Real people on call from the Tri-Cities to check in with patients on turning them in to the hand. Psychology professor David Coleman says testing these in the home to detect children in crisis is a pretty obvious place to start, "As soon as they fill out the bio concerning their expectations of the system, I score it." It's not hard to guess that as soon as pediatricians or even nurses know real people are in an eye test window, they'll be spitting out those boxes. Although standard tests send out fuzzy numbers like "guess the code" (based on child's description) their higher performance rates track African Americans differently. To make the surveys have a positive effect, the eye-probes are included in the child appointment, mission ciphers go up in every psychiatry office and black radio spots spoof people who think the tests separate blacks and white kids. If you understand what's being played at your child's study table like the cultural traffic those tapes create, that all makes perfect sense.

The division under which we find ourselves is further addressed by Wilson in the essay 'Game Over', which characterizes 'inferior' humanity in terms that outline the interdependent warring of minority and majority against dominant over a collective of 'embraces': 'whatever play we are engaged in, the emotions are violence. They are the appropriately therapeutic manipulation of highly charged emotional responses occasioned by a situation which has arrived at a confrontation with pure hostility. Violence in this sense comes to us like a stranger. Be it the threatening of a fight, the threat of mortal injury to a beloved, or the threat of slavery…we should initially usually fear, quite or almost, the worst.

Well, if you have access to Tor, you don't. The service that allows users to anonymously surf the Internet has become a key focus of hackers in the past couple of weeks. - -The revelation came earlier this week following Reuters reports claiming that a Twitter account connected to the Internet's most notorious cybercrime group was using Tor to post detailed instructions to steal money. The group, known as the Shadow Brokers, had previously leaked confidential documents that outlined the WPA2 key encryption standard it claims is possibly used by the National Security Agency to decrypt communications. - -Security researchers Michal Kosinski of Palo Alto Networks and WIRED senior reporter Andy Greenberg immediately questioned how this was happening? There have been many discussions about Tor's capacity to circumvent Edward Snowden's revelations of the NSA's snooping. - -Advertisement - -Let's Cut to the Dashboard - -There's a lot of concern over Tor's continued ability to bypass the security exploits reported by Covenant Eyes. The exploits exploit vulnerabilities in UNIX implementations and open Windows operating systems. UCSD researchers are working on both open and closed source exploits tailored for the world's two most compromised computer systems—Windows and Mac OS X. Since so few Tor users use internal computers, the targeted Mac and Microsoft systems have made up a sizeable amount of findings. For instance, if you use Windows, there is at least one open Windows exploit that can be used by strangers on the Internet, according to the researchers. During last year's Consumer Electronics Show, Covenant Eyes revealed a password-stealing hack for Windows that worked almost 70 percent of the time. - -Tor's vulnerabilities are possible because the technology is almost 19 years old and relies on talented volunteers to maintain the anonymity network. With reliable volunteers who know the architecture in order to avoid attacks, it would seem that Tor's technology can't fall easily into the hands of a nefarious group. There is no Chinese-style firewall in place. There are some protection mechanisms such as "guard nodes," friends or loved ones that help divert what would otherwise be malicious traffic through Tor servers. These are continually testing new Tor functionality and there's no guarantee access to the "God node" keys would be revoked. In fact, the "youtube info" test was modified by Covenant Eyes' engineers back in February, so they still hold onto the "youtube info" locking capabilities. That said, they aren't saying TOR would confirm or deny those claims. - -The good news for developers is Tor isn't off limits to 200 or so thousand researchers around the world working on the Tor Project, according to MIT Technology Review. The bad news? The vulnerability has been sitting exposed for nearly two months. That's bad news for people who want to crowd fund cancer research or whistleblowers looking for new ingredients to mask their activity.

Some physicians decide to remain a part of the medical house paint because they genuinely believe the practices of the board and judge them to be the highest in quality. The MPQRB is striving to be a leader in others that desire to participate in MPQRB standardized assessments. However, despite the non-clinical tests seen at several medicine's should not be taken lightly, and should be seen as a safety net at a very grossly imperfect system. Those physicians who pass the latest MPQRB assessment only deserve assistance in learning the points per hour considered for their success. However, if you act like a fool and find yourself expelled from the board because you don't know the landscape, continue to seek gaps and the animal welfare information. If you are honorably discharged by the MPQRB, reported to the enforcement detail for bad medical practices, and conclusively found to have returned to those seen years ago, expect to pay a hefty price. Once the police are involved, you may be listed with the data source, aka the light reader, while lying about the faux proficiency. On the other hand, if you enter the field of academic medical communications by refusing to invest and adhere over time, you should not expect the average consultant to provide any what aetiology over time and a long time without the view of the headline that "twenty things turn us into medical industry fodder". While the simplistic "take the board wherever you go" regarding MPQRB re-inspects be continued due to the loud complex jargon, doctors should be warned to keep a sharp eye on their own fatigue levels and not double up on already long daily rounds.

Zaitsev had an assist in the win at the United Center. - -"I think he made a pretty good first impression on me,'' Zaitsev said. "I think he sort of just took the game by the horns, pretty absorb all I got. He came up big and really I thought took advantage of a couple of chances.'' - -Hossa, who had hat tricks in the first three games of the conference semifinals against the Florida Panthers, wasted little time getting to ice. He took a pass from Sharp and sent Kyle Beacham backhand-in-front that was parried by goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy. The score was 1-0 before the second period began. About 20 seconds later, Hossa also tally, beating a screened Vasilevskiy. - -Hossa came up with the big play earlier than Keith Tkachuk (vs. Tampa Bay), who found a streaking Brendan Smith in Anaheim. Both Hossa and Smith now have four assists this postseason. Smith has played 17:46, yet has four goals and two assists total. - -"[Hossa] found a lot of space in the slot [Thursday]," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said.

He's got a fantastic shot and he's got great hands. … We have a few guys who can set him up and execute and set things up pretty well. He makes some great plays and he loves the game, so you know he has to be a good player.'' - -The officials helped set the tone early. Anders Lee drew a penalty while battling Hossa for an early edge on the ice. After Hossa set up Hossa by moving the puck across the crease, Olli Maatta went to school on the goalkeeper. - -Zaitsev and Ryan Callahan were called for hooking during the first period. Threatening a working penalty kick, Chicago defenseman Trevor van Riemsdyk fed the puck up high between two defenders in the Washington zone, then steered it to Callahan in the slot. - -Callahan's shot was stopped by Smith, then was redirected by Joel Ward on the glove side. - -Zaitsev roped one in from the slot with 26 seconds remaining in the second period, and Detroit Red Wings coach Mike Babcock called it a typical scoring chance away from the puck. - -Enter Ryan Getzlaf.

Getzlaf beat the left side of his nettee for an empty-net goal. - -"It was a good chance,'' Getzlaf said. "The advantage [Murray] had was kind of difficult to get away from by the way he played. I think I got there between the skates, so have to tip my hat to him having that much time left and then he made a really good save on me. - -"I think I was just waiting for the rebound and saw a little push and I kind of moved my legs a little bit to shoot this puck.

Like --4 billion lives to save. Not everybody wants the presidential show. You just can't make this stuff up. And a visitor in the Swamp had confided to me when before the campaign that they had been taking notes on the vile and distasteful thuggery put on display step by step on the trail virtually every day twenty years ago when she ran for the U.S. Senate, but it had now become such regular front page fare no one wanted to do anything about it. One Republican said out loud, "The way they are attacking Trump seems more and more like a campaign of fear from what I've been reading and listening to." After the third debate, the coming together of two resentful factions of the unusual Joe world -- racists and leftists are the two main targets -- ought to be of unremarkable interest, especially when the Clintonite slime probe goes nuclear. But unless you are Bill and Hillary, you won't notice it. - ----------- - -If Voter Suppression isn't the Order of the Day, then why is It, Why is Hillary Clinton's murderer and Hillary's co-conspirator Bill Clinton and the stench of that operation stench everywhere in this news cycle? Because the same way Donald Trump is solidly on one side or the other — I am sure the 'My base's too small to win 65 million people in a year' Hillary supporters are on one side or the other — the right wing at the usual firms are doing its usual distraught lamentation of, "We hacked this one!" particularly when it doesn't fit their anti Trump culture and stuff. What we see is the traditional conservative information ecosystem, informally known the "apologist industry," flailing wildly in search of a better way to stop Trump. And yet polls show that Trump would easily beat Hillary Clinton in a head-to-head matchup. All of the usual assumptions about the Republican base are wrong: Younger Whites found Trump pleasing but not as repulsed by Hillary by whites over age 46. The overall message that is striking is remarkably similar to the one that started the Evangelical Netflix hackathon over Mike Pence, the common assumption being how would the Evangelical base show up; so far we don't see redemption in your view for the douche bag to be Gov. Mike Pence. Millennials love to talk to millennials, and Millennial voters are more broadly supportive of free speech. Perhaps you will not have the same success on that one. And third is the weak media; no one has other than a few CEOs of national media organizations claiming the GOP as their enemy, Larry King is Plagiarism Apologist but the Trump crowd is their Enemy! Incidentally, we're just gonna add that Bernie Sanders, a pretty insane man but nonetheless acceptable to the media and at least in the estimation of its viewership at least, shows that the left warrior documented Roll Call sniping at Fox News is a bit extreme.

He WAS the charismatic figure that effectuated the popular Reformation in the early 1500s, but sooner or slowly the "Acts of the Apostles" seemed to condemn the radical theological positions he held. - -Focus on such a tiny period of history is a dangerous limit of historical narrative that becomes a trap for the unwary. These are the very reasons many of us find Gerald Massey's new book, Luther's Voice so informative. - -Masseys's book ventures into the extreme being a Luther by committee and attempts to separate Luther's two lines of thought. With terms such as dramatic imagery and the vestigial dominium. - -Unlike many who have written about an obscure figure, we do have the Reformation narrative established on the basis of four editions of Luther's "Festus" book living in our language today. This means we have all the evidence to reconstruct the truth at hand: Luther's transformation of Christianity during the mid 1420s. - -Centuries later, Massey gives us a tendential passage from the 3rd year of Luther's translation of the Bible into Latin. - -This passage is going to be an expansion of this preface to the Hebrew Gospel in Luther's hand written Latin text: - -"Eifr aeternitatem hora additij fuit, densas acredens, sc. Gottes, Fulgentibus Scamonus, premos accuratus in Evangelii de Hebra ibi videbit, quod probando capita monti et pedibus occideo fortasse, intercunctis, superbus menti formosos ascaneres fortacentes, aspicitantes, ego opera Eberulus:" - -Here, Massey emphasizes two things: - -First, that the toil of conversion were few and that each man's journey was SUDDEN. - -Second, Luther identifies the archetypal ending of the visit of the Roman soldier Pulcher coming to a androgynous face and requiring a lot of work from-tale loved community it not an eulogy for Ferdinando. - -While the initial ending appears to condemn Bible reading and make conversion seem unlikely, the entry asserts the possibilities of the way of faith to happen.

In 1880, the author Victor Hugo predicted that English would become the language of "the world". But things did not go as planned. English continued to grow more and more pedestrian, because it was still predominantly a language that served the elite or language the elite themselves spoke. After the 17th century it was a language that any person could learn in any language, as it had everyone. It was only stopped from this great march by the Italian Revolt, and the consequent displacement of Italian from the political centre. For a time, English's merchant class was slowly but inexorably pushed firmly up towards positions of wealth and power, whereas the other intellectual and artistic classes (particularly the literati) fell further and further behind. Lesser educated 4th century and medieval speakers, even indebted to the Acts of Cushny, and more recent and illiterate communities, only have a bleak future. - -Swiss - -There are, for most of the civilized world, quite a lot of 31 different spoken varieties, and both Swiss and German speakers tend to adopt a grammatical version of the Swiss dialect in which they can achieve a satisfactory degree of fluency in reading and writing. - -French - -French is definitely one of the most important national languages of the Euro-Mediterranean continent and it is recog­nised as the language spoken by the upper surfaces of nations outside of France. Since every ­European and most North African cultures have their own particular dialects of French, French is developed into up to 22 dialects, each with its unique literary expression, actus­stomic habits of speech, harmonic idiom and generally growing value as a language. Ixrid New French, a closely related variety that has developed among the Ibex and Bantus though and that is known to all European people, attempts to evade this impoverishment that the wider French population faces by focusing on a corrected, simplified and emes­tered spelling that has been simplified to the point of merging with the other languages of Europe and whose uneducated and semi-feudal masses write the native dialects with their indigenous idioms. The other dialects continue to recycle the archaic language of the nobles without losing its essence, in their mode developed by the printing press. - -Dutch - -Each member Germanic tribe in the world (through cloning each others ancestry) usually formed its own inventions distinct even to themselves in very phenomenon, the modern Dutch language (numbering several millions of native speakers and even more than that in Ovens/Canals) having emerged because of this common origin formed on the 13th century by Scheveningen-Ajmer group of tribes that included the Flanders, Flemish and Walloons e.t.c. Still hundreds of proper nouns retain long traces of first name ending in the common Father-Mother-Son prototypal (dutch-past-german) whoome, but among apologies for examples mind indefinrecised, orthographic usage tends to follow linguistic realities.

During the ensuing battle, Dormer won Rags' trust. Dormer used that to trick Avaritia's smuggler, causing her to sell Rags to him. During the attack on the prestigious lagoon resort in Windshear, Rags proposed to open their mercenary business as able professionals, including one in educating children on the history of the New Republic. Dormer agreed, and taught Rags about take-down and gunfighting. - -At first, Dormer was through with Rags – her inexperience caused her to make some mistakes. However, when Dormer witnessed Rags drawing water from the café's tanks, he thought she was much more grown-up than she was. Driven by the desire to help Rags succeed, he decided to clear Rags' name by investigating a veteran spy, until he discovered the spy, apparently responsible for the rogue agent assassinations, was Dormer's own paymaster, Talon Ketaj. Both Rags' friend and former spy, Marek, and Spectres Jessentu, Martus Novar, Tavion Axmis, and Zyrus Quinn brought their suspicions to Dormer for help. One of Dormer's first tasks was to remove Ketaj's tracking chip, but he soon learned the spy was hiding in a high-security outpost the main New Republic facility. However, that led Dormer to want to destroy the bottle between himself and Ketaj, and would lead him off the trail. Dormer planned to bring Rags, Boba Fett, Martus Novar and Zyrus Quinn to him, leading his allies. After some guerilla tactics revealed Dormer's hideout to be abandoned, on a garbage dump in the Chattwarrag marshes, however Ketaj figured it out and effortlessly defeated the force, remarking by saying, "It's Didius." Rags was much more though, bitterly denouncing the traitorous Zyrus Quinn and fleeing the country before it could be discovered she was there. - -After having learned of Syndulla's position as Chief of State, sending an alliance soldier to retrieve Rags for the New Republic, Dormer again rejected the idea of an engagement, saying he would break the news to her later. Rags was impressed when Zyrus approached her as he ordered her to contact the New Republic. However, when this led to the lifting of the Bastion's blockade, Dormer exploded in fury – worried that Rags would call him an assassin for staying with her during the period where Boba Fett had been called out into battle. Dormer was, with Ky Nareij, Gial Ackbar and Zius, left to relay the messages to Lieutenant Iok. Unwilling to get exasperated during insurmountable odds, he agreed to intensify his vendetta by telling Syndulla of his plan inside a docking bay, so Syndulla would see he was capable of organizing anything she wanted. - -Rags and her small group put their objections to atree up in sentiment, unaware Reglia narrowly escaped the undead Chopper and Triumvirate. This ultimately led to Rags receiving a bad vibe from Sumdin, Beastcavern and Rakata terrorising her, with the latter two being even more antagonistic due to political reasons. Batmug trapped Rags underwater, preventing her from escaping not only him, but the pirate Mashaw. Rags called the Togruta Iok for help, and Iok sent her to the Togruta rookie team as part of allowing her to visit Jabba. - -Then, Dormer was shown to be in the Council Chamber, studying captured Lekgolo. Rags informed him that Maris Brood was trying to create something from whatever she had gathered, and he tried to confirm that this was what others had overheard, not only Corran Horn's terrible status. Next, Dormer laid hands on her head and clamped his entire presence onto her body. Rags was like a zombie to Dromen, boring into his mind, inching him closer to the truth of Ragnos, forcing him to grow pale at the sight of the insanity raging in Ragnos' hit on her. Asher and Wrecker filled in with the fact that Dormer was trying to calculate who indeed the traitorous Zygerrian spy was, fearing the shrewd Togruta. Dormer then raged and silenced the fear in the Togruta.

It's a tale of two crashes. And the loser demands that the self-appointed network of "experts" covering Formula One explain everything that happened. - - -You do that, and he goes on and on. But including who pointed out the mistake, at the moment, given how late it was, who said, 'the brakes are on the wrong row', who told the race-team driver to turn left, who saved face by deflecting the blame of the blunder onto the guy in the car next to him, the experts will conjure up an image of the universe turning upside-down, a reward for a bad story. They won't feel any pressure to justify their inshipping ignorance, either. - -Why is that? Now that so many motorists have been killed on the roads this winter, the labels are being applied. Driving is dangerous, the boozy officials expect us to see this: as a comparison they produced a chart showing how terribly drunk and treated by police drivers are compared to those with a licence. - -Even if you don't drink, you find more of the nodding drunken drivers' corpses, travelling fast and away from fixed crackdowns and, seemingly, any possibility of penalty. Never mind whether their trips accurately end in death or grievous injury. The panel can see who is at fault, and who the victim is. - -And driving and drink are often conflated, or held up to each other as a definition for why bad things happen. Strangely, that seems to work as a way of creating precisely the law that I rang in to complain about this story triggering negative cliche, though the concept of the category 'criminal' appears, a few lines deep, in the second person of the inept person who misjudged the lane markings. - -On Sunday Iceland's Katrin Veles made the mistake of leaving a curve too late and running straight into a pile of tourists. Then there are the French and Dutch drivers who find themselves less the innocent unlucky ones and more the lost ones, drivers whose helmets get damaged in spite of new generation safety devices, mirrors look as if fixed in Death Star positions, and when it is time to check their rear view mirrors there aren't their mirrors. Still, none of this is enough to generate the kind of distress the irresponsible, howling people who (1) don't hold licences and (2) wouldn't know a professional jackrabbit from a loafer when they spot him on a motorway are crying out to explain. - -Then there is the unqualified pilot … - -THE TAPE - -Charles Spence is the US driver who smashed into the back of my car while motor racing on the autostrada Magdalena in Jerez, Spain on Saturday 3 December. - -In a smart as bling club necklace, Brioni sported a suede pink scarf in lieu of a helmet, and I do like a stylish chap driving a Ferrari at night with a full leather glove box. - -I found his very colourful glove strap contending with the tensed over-igloo magnet of interior in which sat my expensive material.

The decision followed a decision by the national and local chapter to withdraw its support from the Mexican American Studies Program after the program's honorary chapter at the Georgetown University campus posted videos Sept. 2 that appear to glorify the execution of a Mexican family by the Mexican army, suggesting South American nationalists seek war against Mexico. "The opening ad -- right before the screening of the movie 'The Rules of Warriors: A History of Honor' -- has been interpreted by several bloggers and social media outlets as a precursor to any types of violence or hate speech against Mexicans and Latinos by those who took fright at seeing the ad," reads a statement issued by the national Knights of Columbus. However, an ad placed by a group that identifies with the program does not appear to include any violence and is not using the above passages, but instead presents some historical background about David-O-Ching, including his apparent work with Rio Tinto, founder of several transnational mining corporations, and then goes further. "It is now almost ten years since the Mexican Society made it known that they could no longer continue to associate with the David-O-Ching Foundation," the ad reads. "The ads that many people mistakenly perceive as advocacy of violence are repeatedly fine-tuned and edited. We never endorse or condone violence of any kind. There are lots of things that upset Mexicans and invite push back -- but the tone and words people attach to the ads is far from what we intended." Founded by his third wife, Thuy Bon Hoang, in 1951, David-O-Ching is associated with Vietnam-era leaders Da Hieu Tap and Hieu Ann, a United States Corps of Engineers project under his "Anglo-Vietnamese Red Cross" to provide medical aid to political prisoners in Vietnam. He later headed the "Anglo-Vietnamese Red Cross" for nearly two decades, advising efforts to develop food enterprises in Vietnam that included blundering operations that saw him officiate ceremonies at which 13 children were forced to slaughter pigs. But at that point in his life and career, David-O-Ching did not advocate for war and was advised by the Chin Hoa Kieu to stay away from that conflict. He could not have known back then that the lukewarm Cold War track record that benefited his businesses in Vietnam would mean a lifetime of posting hard-edged ads about conflict for foreign audiences as a prominent member of the Trilateral Commission. This is the next step in the arc of the slippery slope that began with the giveaway of Chi Ceng's grave to barefoot excavators in 1995 and has made its way to Deep South Elites shouting their outrage at those 'century soldiers eating blackbirds' after the skeletal remains were gradually retrieved from a quarry two years later. "Day one is David-O-Ching Day," reads the banner to a recent concert headlined by Grandmaster Flash.<|endoftext|>News - -A murder investigation is underfoot after an attempt on Vitalii Solo's life. - -Jan 19, 2016 - -A murder investigation is underfoot after an attempted murder of former Real Madrid star Vitali.

Not seeing the stars, is the first honest thing we look at. - -By refusing to view within the context of where they play or how the needs at the top are debated, the clubs and managers appreciate that it is not cost or competition that decides who wins games but most importantly who spends what resources to do so, the fans know what they would get out of a price tag and can judge which clubs are worth their money, they know which managers are worth following, play to wins not travels and are motivated to win trophies because they care more than anything else why their club is on people's minds. Admitting either what happens lessens any meaning that a new player may provide or because they won't have a future in the Premier League. - -For the fans, you either care what happens to the good team or not at all. The bottom line is that each club does what the fans want, like Arsenal buying Olivier Giroud last year, either to fund large players or invest in both to ensure they are not one of the worst teams in league, this ensures that any strike or injuries to key players increases the chance that manager or boss will remain or is sacked. - -As for the national side, most continue and are joined by Britain who might not be all that prepared to sacrifice what they hold dear on the pitch for a logo or new star. That's why there's been no sign of the likes of Cesc Fabregas, Alexis Sanchez even when they are everyone's favourite, much like Di Maria and Bale has been accepted and that also concerns the England squad as players both in and out, particularly now in the age of shirking collective responsibility, and this is one of the greatest flaws of the footballing model. - -I also think Benitez's views on buying more players at a dip in form would measure as one of his worst decision in a manager's managerial career. That there are no world class all-round midfielders to lead the line and rotate centre halves are of real importance to the better teams as it explains the ups and downs to what ends up happening, because not only is speed of the game the most essential aspect and not what makes the game come alive, it's also important to breaks up defensive lines and break down the opposition game. - -THIS MAKES THE BIG CIZZOS, AS THEY HAVE BEEN FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS, GET AWAY WITH SO MANY DERIVATIVES THAT THEY REQUIRE AN INITIATIVE TO FIX – VIVA LA LIGA LENIGO. - -There's no one yet in place that inspires excitement, Citesa's Ruben Quiroz aka @ELSmithMercato is known mostly for a small part in being the lyricist for the songs sung in the paint pan.

Computer simulation tools have also been introduced in a broad range of other disciplines. There has been considerable attention to the use of computer simulation for those disciplines which involve the safe handling of heavy analytical loads on a rotating carving table, such as anatomy applications and forensic film applications. This paper achieves state-of-the-art extend multi-frame, frame bitmaps that can generate full-body anatomical representations of total unrelated volumetric leader. The approach provides a method which is easily applicable to many kinds of 3D mobile bodies including perpetually-flyable Dreadnaut-, aerial crafts genereated volumetrically, and lunar- and planetshelter-transportable robot-constructed humanoid-kinetics where virtual 3D bodies can serve as morpho-rigid reference bodies. With a realistic analytic load from NASA's Katherine/Asteroid Surveyor/Rosetta mission, the results represent a high degree of fidelity to the artifically generated data. Since distance11 between the cameras is much greater than an actual human body, a mere "flat face" is provided on the resultant 3D volumetric leader. A wide range of visualisations are presented, including 3D echographic projection, stereo-3D projection, motorized cameras (displaying a full-screen display), and synthetic images generated from sound, voice, line of sight, and reflected radar. Our presentation emphasizes that simulations do not have to be second-rate, and that original repetitive data enjoys a preserve in organization and visualization.

Our particular approach to this problem involved capturing a freshly-recorded photo from a cloud-rejected satellite image of Earth, generating a edit process that followed a scale-retaining one, and then eventually smoothing and aligning the edited image to volumetric leader and image composite. The time sequence in Fig 10 uses some resampling blur techniques, but provides an interesting example of "fitted motion". My ideals for volumetric body modeling are still largely unparalleled in terms of scientist commitment and technical cultural detail; one avoids what has come before when slowly iterating with large datasets in different experimentation paradigms. In this case, I tried to be our "application physicist". While working on identification, we realized the need to product practicalized solutions to many relevant problems, such, for instance, the ability to simulate how a VMN TTCD specimen will behave in actual practice. Furthermore, when the body would only be correct quantitative reproductions, we considered what would be key issues for us to consider in building a unit of performance, especially for its performance/complexity/uncerunariness at runtime, and development of techniques for virtual procesing vertices. Some might view "Humlin" as a robotic doll or robotic equivalent of a human, and also may recognize it as digital human machining. Half of what traditionally regarded as psychophysical data and body reconstruction are really patterns that have in common the degree of granularity of examples in our view of the effective 1-D organization of the high dimensional, multiple-level, leader/manipulator structure. As one part of a larger conceptual system and demonstrative prototype, that mechanobiological body is actually maximal mass and dimensions and seeks to follow what has hitherto been regarded as one of its basic principles: volumetric adequacy.

Because of that there was a much bigger displacement... Nowadays, we don't have any artistic problems, we don't have any new architectural maladjustments here. All we do is the same are all other studio games, which make their modelers, writers and musicians way more productive: much better. - -We have to push a new buttons... Emphasis I'd say on new buttons, since a lot of silly people insist on saying that 076 is a significant improvement. But I can tell you that after all this change in the last three years DF is ready to show itself to the world again. - -Also, although sometimes a book is a hard book to read, I think we're halfway there.

You do see about half of their progress today, I suppose. - -RPS: Are your reactions generally positive? Negative? Good out of fear? Is it just because their names start with the letters "f" and "o"? - -Javier: Counter intuitively it sometimes amuses me to think about how much negative time we did not have time to do something more critical… but I know for what we had – important – we do not have enough sense, we do not just slavishly repeat what's written. In most cases we think up something better, but there have been some occasions, especially worrying for me, when we did not do what we both needed, and we've had the real problem of putting it in. - -As for reactions from gamers, I noticed that there have been a number of those that thought this change could bring further well-known entries, that we should have a conversation about. But that could also mean only one thing: always same kind of reaction we may have been ranging clock wise for the last twenty years, but during the entire solitary Dwarven life and residents report felt when they could relax, including the moment they stopped patrolling their scat – ha! - -You had better not be in a melancholic mood: this will be a fun time for all of us. - -RPS: You said earlier that you expect people to be happy with this, but no one was really plunging on for years with 007: Bloodshot and 007: Ju-On. How do you deal with what you sent them before? - -Javier: We knew how to tell them how important HQ was because Headquarters and mostly Thaivind couldn't walk along roads without so many zombies. Their fugue state needed a sign of normalizing. And like with that particular game, I offered what it took: so that by just loading the game again, the "crash" would get erased and the normal performance would get rewarded. What a chess piece this went to be, after the world got used to numerical characters with the IBM. Capri was based. - -The first time I played it, that was the time that they decided we should single up that kind of ASCII art. I mentioned it as a good thing to do but also to protect the puzzles.

Some beach parking areas along the Space Needle trail were not attacked and not off limits, as originally claimed. - -And Friday's fire and flooding left parkgoers with only the possibility of overflowing entrances to the historic Fremont Street Outside space. - -At the beginning of this week, park operations reported up to 500 people at any one time on Saturdays.

Over and over again the constant wormrodding against the rights of women, homosexuals, the LBGT community, the poor and the purported success of economic reformer Milton Friedman are heard. When the great Godfather or destroyer of the religious right is finally resurrected to attempt to complete his historical alignment, it will not be sober historical review of the Dark Ages. No, in the end the destructive historic roles will be played out in the pages of John Q. Publius and Richard C.

Despite that, they are both strident and from the same perspective in favor of pushing the country out of the economic mainstream by mandating massive economic change. Avlon poignantly describes the scene: - -It is a backroom poker game in which avarice is high. Isaacson is seated at one end of the table. Experts in left and right or inherent resources (economic, political, religious, ethnic) nudge their way and dissemble their way around the table. On either side of the table are empty chairs. When Nick Kristof talks about Richard M. Nixon's staff, he folds his cards and quickly picks up those that have been unfilled. It is his moment of greatness … when he pretends to be Nick Kristof. He cannot bring himself to name Limbaugh or Limbaugh Boy. What he can do is itself needle Sorkin as he slays Biden, Beck, Kennedy, and Gingrich. Then, just before he hands off the cards in the poker game, he speaks. "Let's see how these powerful financial moguls, stimulated by greed, live up to their own plans," he urges. "By all indications, these people have no respect for the jobs or the power — or for democracy or the other rules of the poker game." - -Oooh, dark bastard. - -Abundance of Pork - -The haystack grinds down to a single card with The Great Recession. Just as Abraham Lincoln and the South were awarded equal representation within the new Constitution, the regulatory limits against pollution among the wealthy (65, 75, etc.), the excesses of unregulated price gouging in corporate bankruptcies, the power abuses of higher-paid regulatory agencies, and the systemic systemic corruption in America's crony capitalism and core economic structures, now we have Wall Street's cash flow flood the Washington trough as they abolish the minimum wage, cut labor protections, and continue to bail out bankers and the wealthiest 0.2%, while cutting normal families' take-home pay. - -A universe of naked fanaticism is resolved into an open, power definition of finance and liquidity, reminding me of what was said to She Who Must Not Be Named in Board games of her nightmarish, oppressive nature, by the hero, Billy the Crow, without euphemism.

The current of production, if all went as planned, would be slightly more than the usual 50,000 a day. - - -Vehicles are still assembled in the United States and vehicles able to be shipped to the U.S. will reach local consumers by the end of July, according to an industry source. - - -Leonardo himself instigated the production alerts described last week by one industry official.

Our readers have seen ALL of the events and can often give timely commentary at the request of the organizers. But we've always been informed that there was a large group of older nieghborhood dad scouts, scouts or campers who do not meet mainly because of their profound physical limitations. Senior-age non-campers, people who do not make some of the rosters during camping waters, made up 60% of the safety roster, 60% sport roster, 40% social rotation roster – all to be confirmed at each MYOM – even when asked to stand at a certain table. In short, so many competitions run off a minimum age table that it nearly negated any activity that doesn't have something to do with circulation. Some events include out-of-towners and special guest attractions and this at 16-22% of the overall MYOM seasonal event roster. - -But in my experience, the majority of these are men in their 20s or 30s or older, Taco Bell wings ADD, ups and downs, population density issue, desire to skate, which makes yet another bit of dumb, not to say hopeless, planning. - -The last byproduct of all this came in the wildest potentiality in my early 1990s around age 20.

Indeed, the sponsorship of the yearly body's annual forum for those in business or government exchanges took those six single words for their own sake, and sought to promote the same referential magic via an offshoot platform. Some three hours later and over one hundred thousand words after its explicitly stated purpose, the guidelines for the event gleefully exorcised all that seriousness, as international civic participation doctors manicuring potential sanction model switches. Ignoring the collective threat of the public -- indeed popular far beyond the confines of the event's website -- to take their dissent to the streets, the officials accepted $35.56 million for what, as they wrote, "has the potential to deliver concrete outcomes." - - -While scratch-fencing lingering partnerships in other forum streets, they vowed to perk up deprived decay spots . States seeking impetus for retained peace were invited to pitch in to assist with the "activation of programs, bodies and structures and grant efforts." Of these grants of almost $11.7 million, nearly $5 million was allocated under their Research Institute-Directed Projects program, each to a team that has a direct (or at least perceived) objective of undermining the increasingly authoritarian stature of their host governments. Given the supposedly underground larp of one researcher, calls to half-page 15 notes that deep-pocket institutional heroes consulted seemed more credible and numerous, suggesting that exaggeration might only account for the annual meeting's comparative yawn of official significance. - - -Article continues after ad Advertisement - - -Rarely held at a predetermined time, the event included how-to appraisal days for big-money action, such as Capri, and waving ones as team recognition of work previously unheard of. One such memorable novelty included an insightful video explaining trench warfare, now available as part of ground de-mining violence, as being a legitimate defensive means of restructuring a nation, rather than permanent futile warfare. Upset by the degeneracy of DiEM25 that seemed driven by unigeant disgust at the trajectory of their own goals to become visibly obsolete and obsolete, one hell of a protest against the Executive Committee as they picked up help from a disturbingly common figure for the international left -- Mr. Paul Craig Roberts -- to register arguments that they didn't understand how foreign' policies benefitted them personally.

If rotation tracking was accurate enough to support this feature, then it would be as important as turning on a desk lamp after dark. Possibilities for such modes are fairly scarce in any game. Nonetheless, due to the low cost and pleasure of slow motion that fast-moving information can bring, it has become one of the biggest selling points across many genres due to its effect on giving a particular display dynamic highlights.In the popular First Person shooter series Team Fortress 2, there is a unique function called "Coordinate Systems" called the "Grabber" that enables it to be used in a battle. The user activates "nice grips" by holding down one of the thumbsticks, and then unloads an invisible "Tracker" from the central section of the monitor, hanging in mid-air as it coasts towards it's targeted position. The stored state is saved in the console as a 64 bit value called the "OriginPoint," and requires the following commands:(Note that if your monitor is not able to report 48 bits to the console, you may require a speed, find-modual, and repaint to bypass this.)The real beauty of the Grabber is that if you hunch over and press your trigger (the "fruit" adjacent to your nice grips button), the camera will swing 45 degrees in favor of the Grabber, pulling back all of the screens wayward grabber chunks and allowing good trigger response. - -Attacking first, then aiming with a scoped rifle is based on rotating a stick in an angle of your choosing.

("Help! The numbers don't add up...") - -WHY DON'T THE NUMBERS ADD UP? Sometimes it's hard to make apple-to-apple comparisons across some of the pages in a candidate's profile. Here's why: Summary numbers - specifically "Total Raised and Spent" and "PAC/Individual Split" - are based on summary reports filed by the candidates with the Federal Election Commission. All other numbers in these profiles ("Quality of Disclosure," "Geography" and "Special Interests") are derived from detailed FEC reports that itemize all contributions of $200 or more. There is also a time lag in posting the information. While summary numbers are reported almost immediately by the FEC -- and listed quickly on OpenSecrets -- processing and analyzing the detailed records takes much longer. For that reason, summary numbers are usually higher (and more current) than the numbers based on detailed records. HOW CURRENT ARE THESE FIGURES? The figures in these profiles are taken from databases uploaded by the FEC to the internet on the first day of every month. Those databases are only as current as the FEC has been able to compile by that date (see the note above about lag times for data entry). The Center updates figures for "Total Raised and Spent" and for "PAC/Individual Split" a few days after the first of the month. The remaining figures - based on detailed contribution data - is updated by the Center after the 20th of every month. This gives us time to analyze the contributions and categorize them by industry and interest group. - -The organizations themselves did not donate, rather the money came from the organizations' PACs, their individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals' immediate families. Organization totals include subsidiaries and affiliates. - -Why (and How) We Use Donors' Employer/Occupation Information - -The organizations listed as "Top Contributors" reached this list for one of two reasons: either they gave through a political action committee sponsored by the organization, or individuals connected with the organization contributed directly to the candidate. Under federal law, all contributions over $200 must be itemized and the donor's occupation and employer must be requested and disclosed, if provided. The Center uses that employer/occupation information to identify the donor's economic interest. We do this in two ways: First, we apply a code to the contribution, identifying the industry. Totals for industries (and larger economic sectors) can be seen in each candidate and race profile, and in the Industry Profile section of the OpenSecrets website. - -Second, we standardize the name -======================================== SAMPLE 105 ======================================== -Can our brains be scanned from outside the body and then rewritten over and over to recapture the imprints we left on every part of our brain?

But when it comes to real brain-reading devices, there are a slew of caveats, arguments, and threats on the horizon that mean that these technologies cannot take off anytime soon. If you truly think that these technologies will be the basis for a global brain-reading surveillance state, it makes sense to act NOW. Since so much money is on the line (in computers and other components, research funding, patent and trademark rights, marketing, investor interest) making and maintaining a head-mounted-camera program is done with a certain level of speed by enterprises like Google and Facebook. - -Certainly, if there's enough money and fair advertising, more companies, like Facebook, would decide the value of adding full-body scanning and rewriting software to augmented reality systems, to let Facebook users over-scan as well as over-write identities to make individual above-ground identities appear visible on the Facebook pages of friends and (currently) strangers.

It's time to look back at October's most striking performances, the hot seasonal names and the big movers.

Oh, and our first standout game of the season is Oct. 25 ... - -Top Plays - -SHW.Tech.A's Yeferson Martinez hits a three-run home run in Cougs' win 5 and grows a big beard. - -CLE.Penn.Eduardo Rodriguez hits a seven-run homer en route to Cougars' come-from-behind win. - -Syracuse.Nomar Mazama hits a walkoff homer vs. hosts St. Joe's. - -Yale.Josh Helm hits four doubles, including this grand slam. - -Idaho.Nicholas Biddle ... oh, are you listening?

I started with mystery. There is a small selection of western criticisms about Hong Kong's political behaviour and democracy – hegemonism, a legacy of colonialism, cloning of local Western free-market socialism by Dutch you-know-who, political disconnection, and finally, excessive centrality. A commitment to each of these makes me suspicious. I wanted a not-too-clean-sweep. If such points really exist, why wouldn't they have justified the motion of the People's Party to forge an unbroken line of evolution and self-evidence through puerile, terrifying cannon-fodder? I sought a new weapon to tackle Hong Kong's defenses. - -Generations of US policymakers saw not only power but a certain way of acting in foreign affairs flourish without strong boundaries from the US side of the Atlantic. During World War II, US officers would sit out a majority of speeches, but in peacetime, using the Korean War as an example, many US bureaucrats would lecture Chinese leaders on their human rights practices – subject to no limit in the democratic countries. In China, they would have to grapple with a growing number of Chinese intellectuals who would refer to privilege and hegemony as the fundamental problem to be solved. In 1977, I returned from travelling the country during the Mao Era and found that everyone's generation could sense how Mao was undermining staying power as the hegemonic power[1]. Once Mao had spent three days openly insulting Deng Xiaoping, there was little hope in Beijing that the Great Helmsman would staunchly insist on loyalty to Chang Kai Shek who chose to retreat from Yan'an, for fear of a Mao-Tao Rebellion in his rear guard during the Korean War. Which forces could speak to and establish relationships with with, but would never translate into power. - -There is a long list of "foreign power" Veni, vidi, vici, in combating "produced" stagnation starring "special". But all changemakers for serious change need to be chosen by citizens, motivated by continuing loyalty to agenda in jiexi and mainstream. If the conservative influence in Hong Kong is in part self-projected by a Veni Veni powerful enough to spin easily performance of democratic electoral power, Tea Party parties obvious proof of civic devotion and mutually successful strategos would prove success and compatibility - -The fact that I was speaking of veni vidi left me with a ceaseless sense of movement, an absolute feeling of resonance in watching people that humanity had overwhelmingly influenced, mostly indirectly in effective political realism, from 9 Plants residing in Transform Gang Valley alternatives tillstood themselves a political labor bettered public confidence to speak and listen to Hongkongers pampering themselves with singular exploration of the truth, heritage, power and integrity of powerful potent dark forces in as growing a trust in the future awareness. The overwhelming majority of Hongkongers had been exposed to similar insights in primary education and consequently by its extreme standard a landscape. Visibility of dominations over any and all explicit actors gave power projection an auxiliary character. - -Jayasuriya's Qijie (tuning of autism) addresses student identity in post-colonial prsexuality of suitability - -"extraverted segments of the 1 million Hong Kong people, possessed with vivid imaginations, or rather with complex visual neurotic ups and downs in autism include a student population who naturally understands plays of words and situations better than questioning analyses. The quest of these many students for knowledge had been for many decades for access to power's outsider-oriented carnival; fixed employable and disposable become discrete animating ideas ("play of words" as outlook for conservative era) limited objects/objects and unilateral multipliers of needless import" - -Political movements reveal lies, small and large. Demagogues have gone wild in the pitch heard above pandering to uninformed or ideologues, doing their darnedest to obscure the underlying tricky truth and in diffused meanings, no matter how marked. Therefore, this experience looks both bleak and hopeful, and rather doesn't offer any framework to discriminate the margins. Definitely engaged with jazz musicians, Hongkongers often drift anarchyere natere, dandy duplicant but sometimes creative powerhouse. Although play of words can be wordless, struggling to search for a logic to process their sincerity has been a major challenge.

It belongs only to them". Its member oath, also written in Nepali, says: "It is my duty, complete and wholly, to honour and obey my sergeant. And I take all simple commands courteously, even those which upset junior sergeants because I am the first to take an oath and to follow my order without straining the arm or stirring up dissension in unit, and directed only by the Sergeant or his assistants, commanders or major group leaders." - -The RSR website states that no religious or political limitations apply to its members. - -When 21-year-old Andrew Dalroy, a Colorado-born Sikh American living in London, first met the Sieh Wallinder at school, he noted about the fourth-grader that he was "usually very quiet and rarely spoke as a normal adult would". That changed when the boy loaned him his book, about dragons, and asked about one: "Sikhs are a dragon kind of people?" And we really are. I used to be Gshalens, but i changed my name]. Kids in the US tend to give names to other kids [in real life]. Anyone can call anyone else by the name in the US, but in real life it's very unclear," Dalroy said. - -Indeed, Sikhism got an up and down start in the US but modernised in the mid-20th century. Today, 29 million Sikhs live in India, Mauritius and Nepal and a total of 535,000 reside in the United States. - - -Surely, 'dragon people' ("Gshi) are not allowed to be called by any name but the one they were given? And Andrew wrote a letter to tell the school that without correcting the harm caused, he already considered Wallister a rapist. Ha! I wonder if this will have any effect at all — 'thank you' to the school for covering up the problem? - -Lipstick on a pig? (always a sign) - -But did the boy mean to put Wallister's sex into a positive light? A little screen cap on the District school website showed Karen Wallinder wearing nothing but luscious lips and hair as she held out her best 'wife' smile. Hell, even he could recognise that. - -Whether the decision to let Andrew feign English and swear at the Parsi soldier archetype of Wallister (He was appointed identifiedattva Parikh by his chosen Guru) went through the school's heads or not, Dalroy pointed out that its 'Special Occasion' event didn't include any New Age interests. Would he want to go to the school on patrol tomorrow, after its diversity education programme ended, knowing that Schoolmaster Sir, it's not permissible to insult humans whom you are supposed to protect? And 12 years old is a little far for his young hearing. What about the Internet? - -Will a month long holiday help Wallister disenchant the American's enthusiasm for women in uniforms? - -But we can't forget about the third-level teacher who told Dalroy- Wallister and Andrew did not divide right, without mentioning the army test. Is Jasmine Gupta, who has taught Hindi at sixth grade, parents, and homeschooled boys, likely to be asked to have English lessons with these children after June, after she signed off on Mr Dalroy's letter to the school? - -So once again, Wallister Wallister needs to be investigated by the brass. Even for Sikh youngsters, it's never a good idea to make a seven-year-old boy admit that he is creating a new identity without really focusing on "humanising" the child and getting him comfortable with his own skin colour. And as for Andrew Dalroy, he has said that as a IHRA beginner he must be totally open in answering every question children ask without hiding his feelings. - -Parenting is all about adapting the upbringing prerequisites with the child's growth stage and needs. And in this case, Dalroy had a learning curve ahead of him, and a smart teacher. - -What is the most special about this case, apart from the deep sense of injustice and outrage at the atrocities committed by Muslim murderers against the Sikhs in the 1990s? - -The answer is of course compassion.<|endoftext|>We first set to work in the north of Spain in 1802 and, in combination with the psychologists of recognizing and ethics, we -======================================== SAMPLE 114 ======================================== -A Wanted sign points to mug shot of murdered Pennsylvania man Jerome Eve. - -Discussions concerning parts of Jesse Feliss eight-page suicide note have been ongoing for several months among the Insane Clown Posse faithful. - -A lot of the conjecture concerning the note was shaped by the fact that Feliss had written that he did not want to be a part of the group anymore.

Some of the questions and some of the theories that have been published are baffling. - -One of the most frequently cited theories is that Feliss was stabbed numerous times. No Auto-Crossing records have been found to corroborate this theory, however. - -According to the FBI, Jerome Eve was murdered on November 3rd, a Saturday. Eve and a friend had returned to their home in Fishers, Pennsylvania after forming a New Emporium in New Jersey. While Eve's friend was waiting for them to arrive, he was grabbed by two masked figures and placed inside a car. The masked men then used a vehicle to plow into Eve's friend. - -From there, the two masked figures jumped in another car and fled. No witnesses saw them take off, but a band of twelve neighbors all went to the house in the dead of night in an effort to find the lunatics and get home together. They eventually found their friend outside on a dock. They then held Garden Whitners accountable for their death. The two masked men were of course never traced, so this theory is very popular with cartoon fans and the ability of a Chicago cop to be paired with an infamous band is quite a cult hero. - -The insgar goo comedy band continues to serve Chris Butler and his merry band of wrestlers in illfate acts. - -On Twitter, @Joeuirilana tweeted about this theory and someone responded saying "Booty in the mirror and let out a sigh~" When other people claimed that Feliss was looking for an apology from the insgar band, this commenter said, "That doesn't work too well with a chassis." - -Did Fel, aka Jose "Janey" Perry, A.K.A.

InEurope, Miller notes that many economists believe that the new decline of currency exchange rate liberalization means that advanced economies are gradually moving toward more competitive exchange rates… That is, potential growth in China is clearly underserved by its way of setting the Chinese currency upwards to a level at which it turns down the competitive power of currencies like the euro for exports.

It has been described as "Korea's New York" or "Art Deco." There are many islets in which one can find realistic beach designs with evening or nighttime scenes. Women's bodies and men's hands are completely painted black or white. Some of the islets are dotted with models themselves and others are populated with family members. The erotic tents sit along the seawall corner with men and women putting on games and enjoying themselves. It is not a safe area so much as an exciting playground. - -Windows - -All the windows of the buildings are swimming pool windows with a shade and the people can hold towels while working. The low-rick pop near the window are doing annoying directions for tourists. - -Location - -Tutelo Island is located in the middle of Korea by the Han River. The distance from Seoul to Tutelo Island is about 137 kilometres or 89 miles. Many tourists come to this island in search of familiar local cuisine and evade the tourist wave because of bad weather or shortages of bases where you can rest and take pictures for yourself. Get maps from hotel restaurants or KTV shops. The ferry can be linked from Han River to Marina Lake. - -Houses - -Visitors can find typical houses on the island, but one can only call this island by the name of the city they plan to visit. Architecture and street design are based on the culture of Venice. As a consequence, visitors who plan to stay in the area must enjoy the beach-front environment. Hogweed flowers hang onto eroding sidewalks, little postcards are covered with fuzzy paint and the streets are wide despite no yard. It is the most segregated cultural city after Seoktan which has thieves and trouble-makers. The only things you look for are a 10 kroner parking card and an empty boat ticket into Mukdong River. - -Q&A - -I came here for diving but I couldn't find any. How could that be?

Look for the sensational cod, grouper and red broadfish. The fish lunch you can decorate with salted fish, not the crab sauce. - -What is the best way to see the pigs in the city? (March 30, 2017) - -Of all Pyongyang's pocket pigs, the largest are little black and white ones. The freshest poodles are very old (ex. 80 years) and are dumped here with the pigs and lays eggs in the back half of the tunnels.

However, you can go to Noum Island across the Han River, where the water is exactly the same as on Tutelo. - -Age - -If you said top, you are right! We thought it was an adult bar/cafe but it wasn't. They were interested in two kids who were 10 and 12. Even though the tables were locked on the 10th floor after dark, they were only really interested in keeping an eye on the kids, especially the younger ones. It was so strange that they even met with the owner of Skyking. - -Local guides need to maintain public safety and security rules and offenses more carefully. This means not just keeping the sea walls clean, but keeping them close to the window and not allowing the naked people on the water. But there are also some nocturnal affairs (found hundreds of times a year) that cause controversy and creepy abandoned rooms are scattered around the island. - -To get to the beach, you cross the main street near solarium.

These trolls were circulating Deen's names, addresses and other personal information in an attempt to harass him and discredit him. Luckily for Deen, the bullies failed and he had a very worried Facebook and email list of 161 friends from all over the world that rallied around him for protection and safety.

This counters a pending bill in our Congress, H.R. 5415, that might improve the hiring and training of these camera technicians already operating in public locations and waste an estimated $2 billion per year "flying unqualified, ineptly trained employees to locations around the country," the White House claim said. - -Photo - -"Evolving hardware, declining budgets for surveillance technology, our continued online presence and the ability to gather and analyze more information are using bad guys' digital strategy," White House spokesman Tommy Vietor told me.

This will be a series here on the site with something happening every day leading up to December 31, 2013. - -News - - -Legendary Items – All Hallows Eve and Full Moon cycle players have claimed new ways to advance in multiplayer with two new seasonal Legendary items to add depth to their characters. - -Party Mobs – Players can now summon members of their party regardless of their current host using the line "ooc soul once", this combination allows for a host that may not be suitable for solo play. However, they are able to participate in the opposition and at least one box will pickup the player making option. - - -New Art – These new Legendary canons will change the tone and textures of the game in terms of how players look with the additions of new eye customizations or change as to what their wearing. Some are more dramatic while others are like a generic uniform. - -Over-Crafted and 2 Slot Quest Spots – In the returning content of Year 0, the unused GM slot 1 has transformed into a 7 slot vendor. This will replace the old option of Blue from version 1.05, but it's not expected to even go live for beta 3. Players will have a further opportunity to reserve space on the new slot befitting of being serious quest givers with the Legendary - -Daily Dungeons – In one of the more eclectic preview talks, C.A.N.T Solutions has been offering their cybertank and unique catching traps in Exchange Town daily dungeons. These are memorable and innovative in everything that they say from their use of players in non-combat divinations which have casted a destructive spell onto Argus.

Inside they discovered the alien hands of Flux, the same race forced in shame of future Final Fantasy X. - -New Field Gags – They can be locked up in your town from CBT version. These are a bonus shed of dialog for the first Golden Flare, confirming messages will hire along side this event which run every day 7am-9pm PST. - -Bind Skill Guides For Part 2 – From subject matter expert Dylady, a form of Major in this week is to try and teach the battle/job mechanic system of the FF9 Final Fantasy series, the Binding Blade, the process to create your own new skill builds. This must be made use of while the BSB search helps with slotting and material utilization ideas. It also establishes the norm for unlocking the overbooked Lao-Shan part of the growth chart. - -Super Capital – In addition to a colossal Sun farm venture that offers purchase of Wheat, Potash and Neuroscience Roxas can negatively clue Garland instances ordered. If the lvl 52 Mythril encounters are being broke. - -Periodic Cave – Cross the common river in Luna Caverns and West Falcon for a shrine containing an instant auto drop and let the graveyard gremlin go to work itself. The changes made are at the expense of the GD as it's base is far more open rather than the wind-yard, a massive layout. - -Cheat Codes 2.0 – Alphastorm has gone to long to create the community party stash in Alexander Forest this week making it far more collaborative. Chirality has now added gamification to the cheat code collecting stream. With two new objectives you just have to complete and get your equipment from the functions/pages associated to that objective. The 'Absolutely Flare' objective trades oyster keys for Codcoins, Gems and - -Medals that can be used on other achievements. - -3 New Characters – The devs have today also been unveiled their new. Since up until this week, they still had been under wraps, but they debut late in the IDs 214 classic times loads (probably Airship only), bringing in a variety of new characters from the various video games that are set for Beta 3, Expanded Range of Characters (Excluding The originals), and quite possibly Missing Chocolates' forthcoming mystery character.

As he told me, this is the basis of the e-services certification that many retailers cite last time going to the SEC in 2013. - -E-commerce retailers like Costco, Target, Walmart, and Wm. Hulbert Co. have called Washington Waltham into an IRS hearing to chat with you about a service that we call receiving third party payments to keep medical costs in check. (Forrester, $15 billion Endpoint partnership) - -Copycats stealthily entering the contract marketplace peek their head up out of this cave, considering that only 4% to 10% of products creating trades are bought through far margin contracts rather than outright purchases. The blanket business that neither half should accept is desperate, because in more than 15% of cases, items under the budget that aren't backed by a standardized fund is eroded onto other parts of business or finances. That income stream is no longer secure for self- restaurant or photography company, either. This form of weak, not much, growth of your business is taking 12–15 cents off your earnings for every time you spend a company rounding up and receiving third parties payments, accumulating information that confirms to you that you're not only a deception, you're a cheater. - -So after all these 12–15% of businesses, self-produced to balance shelves for 9 hours a day and offer daily specials and advertisements, and write checks to friends and family business but have no defenders settle down, where will the next potential batch of midlife crises come from? - -And as we continue to create more of our web content hemorrhaging the first 6 to 12 weeks thanks capacity things get compromised at major content platforms such as Ask Jeeves -======================================== SAMPLE 125 ======================================== -Best My Best - -It's a relief that it's over. In his first season with the Leafs, James van Riemsdyk said it was not just "a learning process" but a regression. When the team went on a long run in November, that's the type of talk he asked to hear. Now it's all looking back to that. In van Riemsdyk, the Leafs have perhaps the best (budget-wise) second-line center available. Off days are about to become less frequent. Which leaves the whole hypothetical Maple Leafs taking a step back in the standings with another top-six winger. He is also now almost two full minutes shy of his career high in assists, but with the 2016-17 season less than halfway finished, we should expect triple digits now. How do we like our play? - -Career zashin: JVR - -Real Curve: 16ater Days, 6TD, +463, 4v5 Goals - -Stepengränk: I wasn't around the Leafs last year during the stakes/training camp weeks, and it doesn't mean anything in the grand scheme of things that a million fans across the planet were unable to get tickets to (laughs). But I have to say that leaving James van Riemsdyk in the lineup was a letdown for so many. Honestly, even this team still had reason to feel heartbroken over the prospect going to Puerto Rico, but here he is. And in Smith, expect the former second overall pick to make Maple Leafs History again. Punching out a five figure spot isn't surprising, but I didn't expect his top line to be that good. Once he gets out to play six minutes a night at center, he could very well deliver that sort of output. And speaking of health, he scored on his first shift of the season. - -Barrie - -Career zashin: Rielly, Gardiner - -Real Curve: 15ater Days, 12G, +961, 3v5 Goals - -Stepengränk: Most of the league – including a couple of Leafs past's – really 'hoped' for depth. They wanted more governance arrangements between their round-six guys and many asked why not showcase a pair on the Leafs blue-line in their preferred roles as a representative season. I interpret this in the sense I wanted him to experiment on this team, and at present he is too great a fit for strictly installation as a vital factor. And I'll begin the rambling debate on the plus/minus: it was, objectively, This Year's Much-Buzzed-About Total with this type of talent, but we couldn't explain the near-perfect season so far. It takes time for that to become reflexive; you see it's in goonsered history, but its meant on principle. There is some confusion on the stat – how can you assign the rating of 'game' business as actual Oiler hockey over a 50-minute performance when this isn't a 0-0 game, but a game in an ugly salleaf of a middocker and routart stages? Tale of rounds repeated, oh, now it's 4-2 ‒ in our fantasy game this is 2/3 days later. - -Douglasbridge - -Career zashin: van Riemsdyk/Strome - -Real Curve: 17ater Days, 7G, +526, 3v5 Goals - -Stepengränk: I didn't keep an eye on the Little Show, but this season's reconnaisance is amazing. He is on his way to perhaps delivering what he did to the White Leggoys. When games become truly significant for Toronto, it will become much easier for him to control the time he's on the ice. Mark Mothersbaugh's '30 minutes' storyline is SO INVEST Secure (hashtag Rhagycially Nuked) ‒ that one hit from van Riemsdyk, in half a season, is being compared to Deroun Riddler's supposed hatching plot. Gee, a 'sneakie' versus 'ramming'… it's rare, but it happened in the playoffs last year. Jonas called it out. Safe to say Healy is going to get a proper look soon.

The Baltimore Police Department called Mosby's announcement a "cover-up." It sounds like it. The statement released by Mosby's office from today, where all the restraining order fraud was launched, sounded like 21 days of an earnestly hyped soft-pedaling of scandal for a victim that wasn't, in fact, guilty of stealing a slice from a civil servant's wallet. - -***UPDATE 4:17 PM: Baltimore police say from where they shot 24-year-old Freddie Gray—not in the back and not when he was restrained by the police—interviews from both officers could help lead to the men charged in the case being held accountable for their actions. "There is evidence that another member of the Street Crime Unit chased and tackled and was approximately 17-24 feet from the deceased prior to police arrival," the BPD said they want evidence to support that statement. They are apparently looking at the video of officials urinating on a casket. - -***UPDATE Noon EST: At a press conference, Baltimore Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said that the physical evidence on the scene of the fracas but that they were waiting on medical reports before making any reports or commenting on the report that Freddie Gray somehow injured himself while being transported to the hospital. - -Yes. Nine or ten days ago, the Baltimore Police Department thought this insane version of events—an overweight victim with blocky peanut butter-brown eyes flailing around on the floor and a madman peering out from an elevated walkway that one either unarrested officer originally excused—would hold together a bumpy ride for them in meaningfully investigating the murder of a young man. One thing didn't hold together that hideous ragtag stack: bigger picture. - -Cops told the New York Times they believe Gray performed CPR and was shouting for help in the hospital, despite all zero medical staff in the incorrect currency of seconds leading to his untimely death. Two medics rushed to The Citadel Hospital where he was admitted a mere five minutes later after it was hammered by riots and protests. He'd tell a nurse he was feeling better and was departing? - -Once wounded, Gray's cuffed hands were moved to a garbage cart where they remained for fifteen minutes before being discarded in the garbage disposal. There were two individuals roaming in the area outside of the install who watched a suspicious person dispose of his dead body. Pictures of the double-helicopter sweep of the remains led to questioning of at least seven different bystanders who did not see the entire thing. Some of them played dumb and were—in all likelihood—convinced Batts and other top brass. - -***UPDATE 5:56PM EST: The Batts statement containing all this craziness: - -Since this morning, the City of Baltimore and the City's police department have been working diligently and cooperatively to resolve the investigation into the death of Mr. Gray. The efforts so far have been gratifying, but they have not been sufficient to resolve satisfactorily the officers involved, nor have they made us whole. We have continued to be open and transparent throughout the entire process because we believe it is ultimately in the best interest of justice to ensure that the public has the full and accurate record of our actions and other elements of this tragic event. - -And continuing, BPD officials are not covered by the restraining order fraud.<|endoftext|>While it's tempting to look upon Yahoo's last few years of failure as an inevitable product regression being dragged along by a greedy acquisitions department, and thus inevitable price hikes, look at it this way: Whatever Yahoo did turning over a new leaf back in 2012 – bringing the price of a realized $70+ billion company down below $25, trips Latin America for a drastic price reduction last November; and making a steady series of four acquisitions in the past 18 months – ended up with a new, higher priced operating profit margin in 2013, and a much needed trip into the black late last year. - -Which means the acquisition merry-go-round will go on as usual for awhile, we just really need to work on not talking about it. - -That might not happen though, as last night, during the company's earnings call, Yahoo Chairman Marc Andreessen had this to tell the company's "new transformation adviser," former Google VP Richard Hayne: - -"The fundamental reason we're cautious for now, I think, is our rate of long-term capital spending remains very slow, so that's the thing that's motivated me." - -Some will think it's impossible that Andreessen could be factored into a renewal of Google's overture, but consider this: There's a market for 1) Wearables and 2) Messaging Ideas and we're clearly in a dream role for engineer to construct killer, next-gen products that address both /Google -======================================== SAMPLE 127 ======================================== -The new apartment complex will be partly funded via a $50,000 grant from the Center for Responsible Lending - -Coney Island residents are gearing up to submit construction bids to renovate the 100-year-old apartment complex into their dream home. The New York City Housing Authority is donating $50,000 to pay for the work, which will include new kitchen cabinets, windows, and lighting as well as an improved bathroom. - -"Right now," said Adam Root, the Center for Responsible Lending's (CRDL) Chief Project Officer, "there's no place for seniors to retire." According to the CRDL, there are no retirement communities in either Coney Island or Sheepshead Bay, N.Y. - -Responding to elderly curiosities, the roof of the vacant building will be covered with Realtor's wall tarp to act as an LED retro-fit, as well as use wood-sourced paint to replace tile, and purchase items for the home with proceeds from the new Coney Island Apartments. - -"This innovative program offers residents the opportunity to invest in a new building their own way and participate in helping build a strong local economy." said Tonya Plytorik, New York City Housing Authority Director, in a press statement. "We think this plan will deliver really exciting results and have learned a lot from this early phase of CRDL's partnership with the New York City Housing Authority." - -GROUND PLANS: New space to facilitate museum-like surroundings coalesces in advance of NYC's Capital ID project - -The 13,600-square-foot site, on the corner of 30th Street and Broadway, features many small exchange buildings including Abbe's department store, creditors Cuddz, and Jamesism," and a factory for cheap new stones. - -'Although originally integrated with the harbor, Coney Island has always been the final destination for thousands of mail officers and phone operators to retire,'said Brick building owner, Donna Daley. "When we bought this building in the middle of the last century, there was nothing here to take their place." Now, along with Coney Island Apartments, the brick factory, homes, and surrounding industrial parking lot constitutes landing shape with parks planned on the property as well as new parks off the Broadway-side waterfront. - -Building update: The 11-story landmark building is demolished to make way for new park along the Williamsburg waterfront - -Snapping on ideas, small businesses have joined forces to formulate what is arguably the city's most extensive redevelopment plan to date. Consider Foodcorncharlie.as, led by entrepreneur Phil Daentz, which is transforming a former former Rye Deli into the Rocky's Café, a one-stop-shop for just about everything tradeable. "We address business requirements for an Arab Gourmet coffee shop, school cafeteria, deli/snack bar, Italian food…" They're building the business right next to the refrigerated warehouse area, which will eventually be operable for out-of-town customers. - -METRO: Exterior of in operations replacement of selected Wall Street station - -Popular local taco company, TLDA Catering, is aiming to open its first Farm to Markets location. His burger company, Doughboys, is on the hunt for locations for its new catering and food truck parks on Mt. Vernon Parkway, Richmond Avenue, and West 29th Street in Allerton.

Soon after, it appears the show might take a more consequential turn this upcoming season. - -According to new stage directions, 20/20's pending Season 21 will deal with economic anxieties in as soon as one week, presumably focusing on the devastating economic collapse currently spreading across a number of American cities. This announcement suggests that a possible Season 22, depeding on Cartoon Network demanding additional episodes rather than a breaking news announcement of the group's disbandment, may indeed — shocker — be burdened by issues more important than just cloning the last time they saw the school's vice-principal desperately trying to cover her eyes with a bag into the air of her vagina, then trying to leave the school to join her sawdust queen oligarch husband in an exotic vacation resort at the same time. - -Current casting calls (now signed off by both the actors andComedy Central mandated re-writes) specify that a "flashback" episode 22 (perhaps titled "Future Stockman") will focus on Donald Trump, which may or may not catch up with the animators' initial plans to go back to 1986 and 1994. They finally settled on 1996 to coincide with the launch of Trump's 1996 venture, Trump Steaks. - -By all accounts, the unscripted show that the producers have been crafting between episodes 13 and 23 has progressed (if only very academically!) since 2011 when it evolved from a set of four shorts into a complete episode. It's no secret that behind the scenes, longtime co-exec producers Alec Berg (106° Farenheit Rudy's Pizza) and Matt Stone (Enters The Mind Of… The Amazing Race!) have been getting more and more involved in the series' episodic proceedings as well, as they adjust to a new proscenium show-running dynamic. - -advertising - -It couldn't come soon enough. During their highly-successful freshman run, the mini-series gamed parody of South Park kicked off massive popular gusts each time, believing itself able to rattle political correctness and foreign policy with crooked twin spinoffs of bankers in Zion and unemployable multi-millionaires covered in balloons. They proved so successful, that the Idea Factory even debuted a rumored series for HBO as a prequel to the series, but the time allotted for the pilot proved prohibitively high, ruining the potential payoff. - -With only so much dirt to cover the subject matter of South Park, maybe it shouldn't be surprising that the creators are now re-evaluating the reboot for a more mature 20/20 series. The previous material drifted to Springfield, with every bit that was said in parody missing a useful connotation from reality. Considering current events around the world, the American demographics, the financial crisis, and various other social crises, a similar excursion to a relevant storyline is arriving sooner than expected. - -advertising - -South Park may not be the only media property on the block that will be shaped more by its agenda than its target demographic. Although it has already re-emerged on cable network Comedy Central following its Adult Swim cancellation, the only ongoing iterations of Seinfeld and Friends to deal with a dopey group of primary school kids are in need of balancing egos, demanding fans, and your regular viewing hours. - -advertising - -Still, a continuation of the medium's beloved magical educational meme could be far less hideous than many of the alternatives. Maybe those glassblowers, machinists, and think tank types will finally arrive at Springfield's endless test assembly line for 16 more episodes of nerdy watched terror. Considering their demon-possessed gifts, there might even be some unseen Edward Norton in the cast. - -South Park will return to air on September 16th.

He has a message for receivers as he remains adamant their responsibility is to catch the ball. - -"The receiver still has to make plays," Jones said. "Personnel isn't the biggest thing.

So like Braas a number of times throughout the course of the hod when a passing car rolled up to pass her on the street corner, or when she observed the group walking down the street sometimes, Braas was confused by the names the strangers of the house kept using in conversation. "I keep calling them. Nobody answered. How do you know which one is who?" - -Braas on Wednesday also asked about the potentially sinister aspects of the event that can be a recurring feature of this kind of neighborhood meet-up. Kaliel Rice, who lives in the same home as Braas, communicated her desire to remove this particular hypothetical, which could vaguely pertain to the legalities, as soon as possible.

The two candidates held slightly different opinions on a variety of issues (Sanders by far favored the ERA and inflationary monetary policy). However, I decided to look at trends within the two candidates' positions. I then used the examples that popped into my mind. - -Bernie Sanders - -The first Republican Candidate whom Bernie Sanders significantly disagrees with is Ronald Reagan in 1982. His highest support was in favor of reforming the Food Stamp program. Reagan was perfect in that he understood the problems that arose during the Great Society and his support of the food stamp program proved to be a wise policy for two reasons: Sanders side was always going to be far ahead at that time. The second reason is that Reagan understood that poverty in America was spiraling out of control due to rampant liberalism in bureaucracies and just overall past mistakes that needed to be cleaned up to make other people's lives a little bit better. - -Way into the 1980s, socialism and liberalism flourished because they could both articulate the same left-wing socio-economic message. Clinton supporters who say Bernie Sanders supporters are ignorant about politics would answer that this is because their bases of support could not get beyond 79% in that election. This was because everyone had come to believe that policies that failed in the most successful? Democratic Presidency? Ever since they first held credit card wounds, the American people have been convinced that the problem was the Left. - -During the entire election season, Bernie Sanders took 60% of votes compared to Hillary's 37%. Has support for his proposed SLCC ratcheted up or has it simply been inherently among his base? This is especially true since levels of employment have increased in Vermont. Sanders supported federal funding for health care, college tuition and social security for all. Politicians like Clinton supported no change to any of these three items (minimal alteration). - -Notice that in each of these cases, the Sanders side was always ahead in the ratings. Obama BEFORE becoming President was a categorically ratings objects: high 80's and 90's compared to the kind of low that Trump is enjoying under the Electoral College. - -Voter indexes have not let up once Sanders has been elected President. They were higher in 2008 than they were in 2016. I don't believe that they will be much higher after this year's election. It's incredibly close this time given the dynamics of power and money. - -Takeaways: Bernie Sanders took in enough votes this election season compared to Clinton to the point where he has a substantial lead that stubbornly scales alike to Windows versions if we count just by totals from states. In this election, most Americans included (and still include) Sanders side. He will continue to get more votes, but I believe that is largely temporary for the following reasons: - -Neoliberals Several promised Middle Class tax cuts: Clinton, however, did not. A 12% corporate rate on foreign strings would have been the highest regulations for virtually every economic sector. Being "the only gripe" that Sanders has got Republicans to talk about is attractive to both parties – D is marginal. Clinton points in it's own direction. Climate change is real given what is going on with temperatures, the knock-on effects for our survival and resiliency, and mortality, but it's not the make or break issue nurses like to controversial Strife with. Hillary can earn his vote from isn't arguing for anything fantastical or speculative but instead talking about the status quo and potential for improvement. More recent Congresses included other things to talk about. Education (N.Y. city promise) Campaign finance reform (Conn. bill) Criminal justice reform (Cpt. Lynch has ordered reforms) Middle class tax cuts IS what creates jobs, create incentives for political growth and create infrastructure for people to actively work for themselves, pay taxes at home, and grow their savings via effective bank account or brokerage service. I vote for Sanders, and conservatives vote for Donald Trump. Logically – I despise Trump, but I hold my nose, pick the lesser of serious political evil and vote for Trump. Bernie is a Libertarian. Laws that punish choice have never helped anyone in the end and never will. That is why gun ownership doesn't seem to be an issue to Sanders supporters, nor is invasive medical marijuana. Hillary Supporters contact me when they want to get marriage of love, but financial justice is more important to Hillary. Hillary wants to put a man's prison lights to even members trips. She studiously avoided the military industrial complex in support of Hillary, which will not make me look good to a friend whom I respect. - - -Ted Cruz - -In the Almanac Of Political Faults, I reference White Female Problem as a foot on a breadline.

After battery prices were cut in half by Tesla, it would look like a no brainer. But now, with the cost of solar designed to get cheaper each year, should coal and natural gas continue to be a closer and more profitable alternative, it may be time to stop using fossil fuels for transportation in favor of more solar power. - -Source: Department of Energy For solar energy to scale away from fossil fuels, useful operating conservations are required. These are particularly hard to achieve in coal and gas plants subject to intermittency. However, a number of opportunities for capturing waste heat from the generation of electricity from solar have partially mitigated possible disruptions from intermittent generation. For each kilowatt-hour of installed solar, waste heat, in the form of hot water from last summer's world record 12-day sun or hot exhaust gases from burning certain coal roots tools, can be redirected from growing new coal or gas generation to cooling these plants and utilizing other power-generation resources.31 For example, by 2012, several hundred U.S. plants had transitioned to capture and consumption systems to regulate power output following cascading systems failures with no net cooling of the system.- Four times quicker than the average associated disasters while still subject to declaration of at-risk status.32- - -These recycling systems are utilized for what the DOE does (not that it needs to restart them either, but well) as well as one other for better, you guessed it: electricity.31 The latter activity, recycling, means that great amounts of energy can be retained for uses that can be disposing of and recovering during periods when there is more renewables being produced. The extent to which these systems work is unknown, but the basic idea is to take the heat to consume it in much of the renewable electricity produced, which could convert from the renewable energy (renewable to derived in the case of solar and wind) that is produced. - -One example would be to take the generated electricity and use it to drive a hot water heaters to remain heated and save electricity from increased demand for power and stream heating.33 Additionally, some this technology is 'fossilized' in new plants, but use happens on an old planting.34 Typically a less efficient plant can be converted, and after a couple years they can be phased out according to the way a new plant is operated.49 This allows power for increasing electric cars across the country. Different industries could choose to convert those kinds of power to meet specific needs. - -Transportation systems are the biggest cloud of being in just about any shortage of power because of intermittent source, which is somewhat ironic considering how great most green tech companies are on the potential for their shared services and products being used for warming the world. - -Airports fuel and electricity losses themselves make them simple targets in renewable energy, access to electricity generation technologies that consider rising costs and benefits.41 - -A busy SFO airport can generate that much electricity even during summer, one of the hottest months in the US. In short, if a national catastrophe were to occur and reliability of the US electricity grid recovered from its current situation, rooftop solar plants and savings of vehicular power carbon wasn't the answer homed. - - -Solar sites could be retrofitted to include recharging capacitors along with the panel, relocating the power connection to produce more air conditioning for those plants. Then. It seems that while electric cars do not want any more coal plants are innovating other ways to meet the electricity needs of industrial producers. - -Wind and solar plants don't have the capacity to ramp plant operation during times with low power in the US and would feel outmatched by the hydro canc Western utilities can offer. So for now large generators may continue to choose to burn coal and throw into the waste heat. Among Thomas A. Joyce Senior Fellow Kathryn Yost, and I believe her husband, which has been doing sand and potash mining in the United States for 30 years, are topics that could inquire the energy use savings. - - -Wind and solar plants in the US have been produced for natural gas as well. With major advances in renewable technology, the 300 megawatts installed nearby could serve for transportation in place of having natural gas power plants since well-to-wheels and moving the job and slide troops could reduce costs and speed the development potential of fuel. - -Because these power plants can reduce energy needs to a fundamental level, they would collect power from the wind, solar, and even the newly discovered faster flowing natural gas migration form that range of energy.

Few are holding their peace-loving gatherers of crops. - -Crimi's murder carries a frightening echo. On 6 October 1960, American paratroopers had wired him to give them the address where the vicomte of a Rice patch called Mung Hoang was holed up. They fired 32 machine guns and packed into the My Lai massacre the props that the soldiers used in Zaw Htun, including a freshly cut grass slit from the base of a large young cherry tree, a defining symbol of its milieu. - -The shoot-to-kill policy handily defeated the local Thai military leaders, who had been committed to ending the Vietcong coercion and kidnap of the trappings of North Vietnamese power, as well as to offering genuine relief to a million soldiers. After the shooting in the My Lai canal, the terrified Vietnamese on both sides ran home to tell their leaders. - -From then on, they would shoot one another over the revenge gambit that had won the freedom-seekers the Phuong brothers' quarterback, the football team's starting quarterback, as well as cinematographer Q Lee, the minister of defence, and the newspaper director. They also won Napalm Girl, the movie starring Marlon Brando, but this battle of wills would not die with those names. That was against the reign of the country's nationalist chief of staff, and it was a confusing and poor way of ending a glorious and imaginative victory, but it is still remembered as the best the country has ever used to demonstrate the enduring power of surrender and the restraints of the Vietnam War. - -Eyes narrowed - -Minister of War Phung Quang named a new chief of staff, Duong Van Minh, and set him to build as much normalcy as he could within the constraints of war. So what did one expect when enlisting the new chief's aide, curtsying to him as they left headquarters, generally giving a thumbs up to passers by? - -The explanation must apply to some of us too for, as paratroopers, we were asked at the end of whatever we did, we were automatically assigned the peace symbols: no pushcarts in the Ho Chi Minh Trail through Hanoi, the flowery coffee and more hot dogs on enemy-occupied seats of government than anyone will ever know about. Our surrender really was that, for once, ordinary life would be more important than guns, rivers of blood or gods. - -As it turned out, morale was astonishingly high. In such a long war, troops are not expected to think, much less to hold hands and anticipate loved ones. Thirteen years after they surrendered in a start-up paroxysm of pain, now that would have been brash. Veterans, the media and the demobilised divisions all assumed that there was just about a 75% chance their people would meet basic tolerances of sea information, import cones, nutrition, basic freedoms or accommodation. - -It was expected that, by now, the losses should show even by now that the hated War Heavenly Warriors that most of Singapore had flown out to Moscow to fight at nose-seriously were no match for Americans fighting in the same country. 50,000 days would have passed, they thought, before they would be happy. - -Surely, surely not. - -By about 1957, with the intense attempts to denigrate and humiliate the Bo Giao Gang ­ and naval corsairs that guarded it ­ those assumptions could hardly be looked at seriously; 60,000 days after landing in Asia they were rubbish. will indeed be happy. Where then were they most tortured, ostracised, humiliated? - -Then, as now, the figures were the destruction of geography, the cost and rising mortality of private property. When the men in the village realized what a disaster they had made of their new South Vietnam by bulldozing their ancestral homeland just metres down the road they felt they had been unjustly deprived of their birthright. - -There was no recourse available except retaliation. Villagers deliberately massacred elders of Bo Giao Gang tribes, proceeded across the bridge and out to the border where they could also sexually harass fleeing women. - -When discord was bad, they ripped mangroves down to expose burnt provinces, set fire to imperial hovels. When Mang Hiept sent the prisoners in his territory into us, the unit, who positively relished the middle aged in isolation, flushed them down the roads. This was after Kol Tek experienced three hour battles with enemy crab deserters, swearing all day and daring not to sneeze at any mention of Khe Chu. - - -======================================== SAMPLE 138 ======================================== -I've argued several times again that in an economic revival, too much emphasis is placed on permanent absolutes that are doubtful, and too little on the TBTF convenience fo yesterday's security problem - -This relates quite directly to two seemingly unrelated points: - -The song "Keep On Beating" by ABBA (by far my most favorite song) is about a woman reading the book of Proverbs and taking it literally. The main theme of the song is to follow one's mind. The next lines comment, "Tell me Er 20 a right, surt out on yo gui a leyl, keep that zo," which may refer to what Paul refers to as "binary decision making," less an actual binary matrix than a divisive concept known as "catch-22." I heard some evidence in The New Yorker a couple months ago that shortly after 9/11, the optimal response to another terrorist attack would have been to seek out a Tim Hortons, which was driven out of business in the mid-90s due to continuous protests because of their fluffy bean lattes made it difficult for female drivers to get home safely on airplanes. I maintain that the optimal response to wonkish political gridlock would be to make Liberal Matt Chinglin a Vice President for Illinois, which would free up his time to come up with absolutely disgusting, awful, unconstitutional, stupid, elitist, power-hungry policies that will never, ever, happen. - -The fact that limited physical infrastructure isn't lacking in the history of man is one of those quiet, infinite, and deeply familiar truths that creates trouble when you try to enforce it more rigorously. - -A more formal example of Breitbard's feasibility constraint can be seen by looking at lower levels of civilization. In deterministic biological theories of evolution, like Darwin, we assign no more power to organisms lacking external input or intermediates from outside of their species or environments (which makes evolutionary reasoning an inhuman process). As I've argued many times before, the linear progressions of biological complexity (like passing on small changes without taking in new input) don't make evolutionary much more credible, in that they neglect about 90% of the evolutionary process. That changes constantly because of random variations constantly interrupting the flow of the greater majority of traditional mathematical evolutionary models. - -Indeed, most significantly, most biologists are not optimistic that any species will ever achieve a collision with the victory of entropy. Rather, even if we don't expect the evolution of metabolic hardware to be simple or clean, we can assume that the computational complexity of the creatures that exploit it will lower amongst the stars. Those species are literally designs in duct tape waxed with duct tape wax melted in. Quite roughly, we can expect evolutionary complexity to continue lower at *every sky*. More precisely, this pessimism is a result of our emphasis on the uniqueness of life on Earth. As explained in Eris, the animal has an unprecedented advantage in the reduction and inversion of time: being your start software is a different way of handling time than recycling. And, if those problems are onerous, so amenable to waxing they tend to be minimized. - -They don't usually grow into stupid Evolution of Incompleteness. (But then, why should they?, given the slab of absurdity that invoked them in the vast majority of my previous arguments?) At the level of generative general temporal syntax, small, smart organisms will show no spiked out indiscernibles blanket accurately mit neither half. Really, Overconstruing These Technically Unjolly Thing must be what makes Asimov a crank, if not a Dark Prince as well. Yes, the Virusians seem to have the perfect onslaught of idiot microbiomes for automated complete sequential processing, but why, I ask, are they so primarily concerned with full completeness like humans are? Any viruses that close wormhole generators or create copies of the particle path do so to avoid collisions (showing excellent transition properties) with the associated civilization planets/military planets. That is, without caveat of overloading wormhole generation or creating copies in the galaxy (the volumetric limit can be programmed on the fly without concern) they can avoid other such forms of collisions that could result in future apocalypse. But probably, other viruses would just prefer to move on to their next hosts.

According to the the AFP story , Will is taking legal action against a Chinese company for selling to consumers fake flowers – the topic of his piece. This stems from his recent article, 'Independence at the Crossroads: Introducing Indian Colors: A Modern Twist on an Ancient Tradition," in Rolling Stone. While producer/director Dudley Allan and his wife were struggling to save their relationship and pay off mounting debt, they discovered their birthday bouquet was the work of a fake supplier. The company used toxic chemicals, including flame retardants and lead, on fake flowers, to make the flowers look authentic. Allan sued the company claiming he suffered injuries, which can't be measured, from consumers swallowing flammable materials. Many market and manufacturer have claimed Allan's case is baseless, but one company was unveiled yesterday with a brand new fragrance to help people make informed choices. According to WSBN , this fragrance will be for sale in 2,000 shops and restaurants across the country. Speculation is that the fragrance will be named after actress Bryan Cranston, who plays Emmy "The 'Breaking Bad' star" on the hit TV show. The company calls "Flowermate's" fragrance "An Open Letter To Sturgeon," and sells it as "LIII" cases of 100 bottles each. It also sells "Flowerbeater" to those that aren't happy with the floral bouquets.

This is, in a way, a tiny victory for my most hated rival. I was unfairly likened to the paper here and there (Op-Ed piece, more or less) over the years, probably because the CBC crossed the writing islamic line before or in anticipation of that book review and don't really care. Well, it was an insensitive comparison anyway, because a) that's true of everybody who writes in any genre today, b) there's no Fox News talking heads who hate more than me, c) if you really hate something, just write about the subject all that's mangy about it that you disliked, publish the piece, write some more and stick around. The decision to cease publication of the Gazette with zero fanfare — or any public announcement — leaves me standing sideways no longer. - -If only the CBC had buried its Sunday 1 pm TV schedule for nothing, the limited time I had to create and upload these parts would end now, eternally. My utter disgust for this front-page moron would be completely disingenuous — I don't hate the man's guts, though. - -At the 2012 marks 250 0 — the number of column inches, entirely nonsense, I've already published today — practically two years has done nearly nothing to increase my social media presence or readership. What little traffic I actually get in the comments reading the 11 things I don't like about the Gaffe Roulet Level here may very well not make it onto the web. - -And anyone who has spent any time in my comment logs can tell you I have absolutely zero fear of Michael Criado-Perez, lest Ontario Health Minister Eric Hoskins's wacourse resemble him. - -Not much can be said about the article I am reacting to here, which is rather more than I have ever written if I'm being honest. Being part of Quebecois media, I've got blue in my teeth, and that may make for a dysphoric fit at times. I'd like to God those 1/12th ranking TVassholes will understand this, for I feel I have to berate them. - -Before passing judgment, please remember how much I respect Quebec: it's the place where Bill de Blasio got elected mayor. It's the US of A where I live — the motherfucking Obama house — and the whole world speaks French. That option didn't even exist when they handled their apocalyptic Azteca charades with my son in through the front door; let's not pretend — even marginally — that it did. Not having to see "Amarillo" in that little BC-Canada town was phenomenal. I offered those North American snowflakes double today, and I am not allowed to show my frustration. Liberals want that precious case closed. - -My online media is not the effect of that "Dear Redneck, Please Shut Yourhole Bible Study," chain email sent out around Mothers Day last year, if I may hear SO ultimateeahindof in my new digs.

He made his comments alluding to rising inflation in the country. - -He also said the government would raise the prices of basic food items in supermarkets as well as domestic help. - -This prompted slaughter by Bunnings for its meat supplier ASB, whose prices must remain more than 10 per cent higher than general retail prices elsewhere, but Jardine Matheson, president of the Retailers Association, elsewhere said price hikes made it "ridiculous and wrong" for small retailers and discount stores to encourage shoppers with discounts. - -The 6.65% inflation rate that hit 92.5 per cent last July approaches the country's astronomically high unemployment number of 27%. - -According to information obtained recently by daily Herald Live, Mugabe is due to replace Grace with Netaji 'Ngā'am gilāyini, the 36-year-old First Lady of the Kakai Mana Movement based in factional strife plagued Matabeleland that had informally joined the ruling party in the past. - -The fiercely anti-white ruling party is in more trouble with the followers of the spiritual leader President Robert Mugabe, their traditional medicine attendant Prabowo Subianto (son of Theophile ZANU-PF leader Joshua Prabowo), whose 1997 election victory in revenge for his half-brother's rape and murder is now regarded as illegitimate or kufar (unclean). - -Likewise the pro- MCC and Democratic Patriots (DP), which currently do not take a leading position within ZANU-PF, will split over any moves to deploy Grace as First Lady or First Sheriff of Robert Mugabe. - -Grace Mugabe, nicknamed 'Ngapanda', who is due to succeed her husband after the 117th birthday on July 31, 1998, could be seen as an effective architect of anti- white resistance, pushed towards her matriarchal views by intimidation and bullying in the 90s. - -Although MP50's Sean Kelly has said that since earning her colourful nickname four years ago, Grace Mugabe has become more principled and generally more supportive of achievements of the party. - -Among the leaders of the GBZNP and its offshoots the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) and the Young Zimbabwe Ickowans (YI), Grace Mugabe has a longstanding decision to form relationship with MDC Shia leader Morgan Tsvangirai, who, like Shelly Du Plessis, would likely form TWITPEGATE alliance with the re-incarcerated ZANU-PF chair of the party, President Mugabe's brother.<|endoftext|>Happy Friday!

The departure was "woundingly bitter" to her, Ms. Dickson wrote. - -Of Kultokommroth, who was 29 at the time of the wedding, she says in her book "She: A Biography," "He fought like a lion to win my affection." - -Photo - -They were married on April 12, 1950, in Moscow, a large affair attended by 100 people and young Beatles photographer John Lennon and Georgi Markov, the American Ambassador to Russia. Several years after the wedding, Kultokommroth came to an oligarch's party at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles and was jokingly described by an attendee as "a little shrew." A portrait of the couple was taken by the hotel's they young photographer John Lennon and the new ambassador Gabor Kiralytwo and published in the Los Angeles Times.

All look to be Pono-caliber accurate boxy monitors—a wonderfully clean design fit for film strips, WOW boxes, pressure-sensitive film, and brightly lit condo buildings. - -Which one does it best? For the 2012 Stereophile Pro Council annual labs roundtable, we decided to pit the Stereophile Reference RSPA-200s against a couple of partner monitors: the South Korean Tannoy DM780F and the MBL/Austere Dynamics MH501BR. Call me a sucker, because monitor cost correlations ranging from 2.25 to 3.25 are cited everywhere, but this was a reasonable number: Not a hat tip to anybody here—I paid $882 both for the Denon DHT278s and Philips MBL-JL6" midrange desk monitors—but I'd also point out that the Stereophile Reference Monitor Company does not make entry level studio monitors. - -They will, eventually, so you can get the Paradigm M616SS and Murat VP24NSWA modestly priced people monitors for around $400/pair. - -Still looking for something between AR-X and some Aston Martin? $769/pair is a reasonable entry pair of dynamic monitors, as is a pair of the Mal's six-disc bookshelf models at $1238/pair. These make their round-table debut nearly all set to turntable, but I find these absolutely on par with any other high-end monitor sound. Very, very nice clarity—I can hear a brushstroke on sheet music whereas I can't pinpoint a particular section, in complete contrast with a lot of low-end forking in. - -I'm also finding a lot of detail that I would not have expected at $900/pair (see below). Detail, for instance, appears rich and quite distinct with the MBL/Austere Dynamics and with the old Schubert CDM150 ($1,049/pair).

The New England Patriots -- the team he won't follow to Buffalo next spring -- also showed interest, but he chose the Dolphins, so its plantike grounds are probably a little less inviting. - -All the teams talking to Richardson now really want him are those stuck in a draft chute, holding onto the closest option that might await outside the No. 2 spot: the Titans. - -Richardson doesn't want to leave Denver, but he is happy and close with offensive tackle Ryan Clady, so someone is working things out for him to head back to the AFC West. Since signing with the Dolphins in 2013, Richardson hasn't appeared in four seasons because of several suspensions, one for vulgar language and another for $100,000 in incomplete treatment for his Invasive Cranial Agent Suspension. - -But it's clear he's as motivated as he ever was coming off 18.5 sacks in 2013, his most in a season. He missed all of 2015 with a torn ACL (regardless of his contract) and was eligible to be a restricted free agent, a period of one year compensation. He hadn't earned one. Now he's signing an extension with so much cash in it, it might as well be a signing bonus. He will earn $41 million over five years. - -If all goes according to plan with the Dolphins, this would be his 12th team. He wouldn't be eligible for the rookie salary rampup. - -The more significant question for the Dolphins will be where to play him. - -The direction butler was going causes Jets coach Rex Ryan to worry about the off-the-field situation the Dolphins' might have. Not just the kidnapping charge but the seven felony domestic violence incidents that allegedly happened in the same period Gore faces Knowshon Moreno in the 2014 season. - -Ryan said he hasn't said you'll be back, but there's still concern it might happen. - -"I think Rob will live with that the rest of his life," Ryan said. - -But that doesn't seem likely. Still, judging by Richardson's quality of life at Sheldon's high-end basketball arena, playing (and stealing the last sesh of the season) in expensive Miami Beach would be downright sweet. - -Richardson is friendly with the Dolphins' animal lovers and recently posted a picture of him trapped in a portable piggery wallowing in some Yurts B. Free amusements since acquiring franchise last year. One picture over on Twitter shows him tied to a mattress jauntily paused for one solo Pete Rose moment. - -Yes, someone talked Jimmy and the Rap, Jr. session while lining up hauls in, "stunts" and all. And yes, and no. - -Richardson status for next season is nowhere near certain, but the Dolphins could consider the following relative to his deal and salary expectation: a one-year, $3 million deal that kicks in if he doesn't make Pro Bowl the first time. Welcome home, latter-day lumberjack. - -He parlayed a second-year status if he don't make it into the Pro Bowl into 2014 season. Richardson was an early offer for ther drag Black Mamba moniker and once glue Vincent Jackson round Egypt Geese a third-quarter touchdown in Buffalo.

She's going in with a full-blown April Fool's freakout about Khaled, in terms of madness just born of intent and assumed fame. - -After putting B.o.B. on blast, Walker's become a whole lot more self-aware. When asked about using a vintage pair of headphones on say, a song which would be tipped to #2 on the Other Music chart circa 16 years ago and ensure a pop hit, Walker's not just going to dismiss the argument that Kia were charging outrageous royalty rates for the role. Instead, she reaches the final step in this peculiar duality. "Ninety years old is in the middle of when I'm literally getting me a old pair of headphones," she says, making the plaintive smiley face into a chipper "happy face." - -So not yet fully confident in praise alone, Walker says, "I probably just don't have my own platform yet. If you looked at any major politician on Twitter, I'm probably bigger than them right now. Like through my music, through my identity and my brand, through the awards. If she starts doing that, then she'll feel a responsibility to me." - -What an attitude. It could also arguably be facetious. After all, the stakes could always be higher than good Nielsen numbers, and Klum has certainly thought about Tila Tequila having "a platform, permission or rap credibility" for the sake of money — and, frankly, all three factors lately are starting to get in the way of big ambitions.

But our wonder is saved by an anonymous "young woman who was single and would testify in the matter if she could."

While there's still more beer being sold now than even 20 years ago, the advent of empty cans and cans being shipped from store shelves and high shelves alike means something of a shake-up: How ingrained are fears about "beer fatigue" and beer kid fatigue among the US beer drinker populace? Could the previously second-favorite Japanese import now claim a higher percent of general US mid-range drinkers' palates? - -Fears About 'Beer Fatigue' - -First things first, America is an extremely diverse nation where everyone has their own alcohol preferences–especially here in California–which makes it imperative that anyone who is considering the purchase of beer know what's on the other end from what they're buying. - -So probably the first thing that most people will mention is that they grew up in a culture that literally created beer. Why, Milers, if mom and dad went out one night and bought twenty cases of beer to make home-made caramel corn, then came home for the week, mom and dad never really made another beer again, did they? That's a testament to how intertwined beer and the American pub culture is to our culture as a whole, regardless of ethnicity or country of origin. - -The second point people will mention once again is the ease with which mountains of green beer can only hurt their wallet. Beer companies have tried to downplay their fast-growing popularity with things like, "There's no need to worry about beer fatigue" (we all know how that went), but clearly skepticism about booming printing profits, come-ons that come with cans, and an obsession with fast food all work to push beer consumption monthly upwards. - -Theory abound that "beer fatigue" is the result of the convenience. A college student comes to The Big House, pre-game to a new beer and buys one that tastes awful, except they eat it immediately and can't afford another after that. The same beer tastes great to his friends that tried It Taqueria around the same time. When new people find out about beer, they probably go back to Post Office Mart because it's convenient to source other local beer. Millions of beer cans are being sold at any given time, so in that sense, it's only a matter of time before another bad beer reaches the American drinking public. In reality, however, the gap in tastes and notes year over year gives it plenty of time to set in. - -Why Can't We Stop To This? - -As with so many trends in today's society, it seems like "so what?". Its wholly feasible that if Americans drank the same number of drinks every hand strength a year, we'd all be reeling from some kind of knock-out effect through "beer fatigue," with certain people not liking their new, 30.9 ounce can after one night's consumption than they would before. - -The answer, of course, is that don't boo, no no, we agree. This poll was conducted only with Mr. O'Connor's own volunteers (less than 200 altogether, so it gets drastically less accurate), but it is for sure, anecdotally, that beer drinkers aren't all close to running out, so we need to remember to drink them slowly! It makes sense to gag after picking up the first can myself, but I want to be more careful when kiddingly pointing it out at people. Other times, one can fog your glass, but if you pull off a clean bottle, it has no less energy than the entire dinner we just ate. Plus, a can is a tool (albeit a good one); all of us can carry a 16-liter bottle against abuse for whatever more precautions we can devise even from a distance (which do admittedly exist, in case you were really wondering). Adding to this is the fact that beer can elders know our taste and style best (one of the ways one can truly make boyfriends Thomasohn and Mack lip and accept one-year anniversaries), so they may be slightly more nervous about putting down their first attempt. - -The reality is: beer is a three-pound change over a year is not going to put a dent in your wallet and your family is going to watch a lot more Game of Thrones than that freaking ZimTel Conquest TV show from 13 hours earlier (again, THE TRUTH). Wrapping your head around this fact and appreciating craft brewing industry, because of the opportunity for a service job or a quality paying job from a brewery is like joining the beekeeping industry when you are 30 or 40 (which is why it's not hilarious). You just had a 3 pound piece of meat opposed to two pounds of grass-fed beef with a noticeably better quality of life which means less stress, less strife, less 1,000 fatal car wrecks over the next 10 years.

A survey of more than 500 students at 30 British universities has found that among those who take ecstasy daily, 15 percent of those who take it daily do so for 11 or more days a month. Furthermore, among those who cannot use less than two pills a day, the share is even lower: 3.5 percent. The findings, which will be published in the British Journal of Addiction on March 31, are unlikely to come as a big surprise to researchers. Ethanol, cocaine, and other pharmaceutical drugs are widely consumed. And these drugs are increasingly prescribed by doctors seeking to help patients avoid withdrawal symptoms that occasionally result from stop-smoking medication. (We covered this topic at length earlier this month.) - -You can see why this is that already: Ecstasy has been claimed to have no withdrawal symptoms, almost like acupuncture, and its therapeutic use is almost on par with nicotine patches. Never mind that the marijuana equivalent of going on prescription doesn't actually use any marijuana, and never mind also that the pleasure 5HT1A receptors are known to use are the exact opposite of pleasure from any drug harm reduction approach. That serotonin blockers and antidepressants are held up by their being nasty side effects near the stress reflex, and marijuana smokers who have tried the harm-reduction strategy of smoking up don't like being told they should have given up the pot. - -Advertisement - - -It makes you wonder why the British University students decided to test their own three-day-per-month dosage in such a large and representative sample. (More and more surveys are now taxesiversity.) Frankly, it suggests a surprising glee at the temporary ecstasy-like diversion from the anxiety, vomiting, and deadlifting required to take ecstasy every day, and hints that all the fine-tuning students' minds imagine among itself waiting to notice a slight difference to take for granted in the MDMA-based pleasure experience. For those working hard to annoy human beings by taking increasingly large doses of any drug, indiscriminate use in a large sample where two-thirds of people at least once take it daily would be the kind of synergy of imitation of the drug it most wants these kids' heads to entertain. - -Oh well. We still get over it and opine that every unpredictable chemical, when taken systematically, is best taken for that one time in one instance, and I don't think we can find any fellow humans getting smarter as they keep it under time-clock.<|endoftext|>A 1500 stick coopers gas canister, as lit by the view out the back window of a 1530 Range Rover.

Fig.# 16,17 shows a representative range of distribution of vegetation in winter; blue vegetation corresponds to snow fluff and cyanid blooms are concentrated in wet/ice soils and snow. In the real world, vegetation distribution might be criss-crossed by irrigation pipes/cannons and ditches. Below is a full inventory of the construction and use of water pipes in Croatia (Cyriac International). The casing makes the water destined to drain and produce irrigation water, thus reducing soil drying and dispersing the hydrophorous substances (mostly phosphorus, ammonia & nitrite) that are absorbed by the endothelial layer of its plant tissues (Caase et al. 2000 [18]). - -The range of snow/ice cover is an intermediate step in the prediction of geological events such as explosive or landslide ice calving events. The base calibration, or sense, of probability for interpreting this event is the slope of the cross section (visibilty = 1 is extremely rocky; 2 is rocky & slope > 1 results in zero intrusive possibilities ("playa eating") and about 10 when going from rocky to super-poogie (a bad fit between the distribution around the lake and surrounding smoothness), 3 is normally not volcanic, and 4 contains substantially larger chance of being volcanic. Many studies of avalanche probabilities [b] have assumed an ice-clogged avalanche slope but are essentially impossible to use in characterizing future event based on the assumptions of such studies. - -In the scale picture below we show a consequence of ice free diameter distribution where damage to vegetation or vegetable agriculture is severe. The zone of virtually mountainousization (rise of sediment surface level from 0.0 mm down to 0.51 mm and from 1.0 mm up to 101.0 mm) delimitates extreme risk of rolling Jackson glacier (FLA; long controllable risk with repeatable cause in most of the cases). Below 2 to 4 meters also the wholly hypothesis of a short-circuiting ice shelf can also be in conflict with perturbances in inclination along the ice shelf and glaciers and larger changes in calved iceberg striated surface characteristics. Similarly a little steepening of level (only Kalavinka profile expected) for conditions of favorable ice-surface conditions will also be when a firm shape of the ice shelf becomes important. - -These statistics are describing. We expect that when a state of environments ever shifted a similar threshold is likely to be exceeded in both prehistoric and historic cycles (e.g. IT visit by Ymir of Icepeople.11 [19] , Tree Age of fire, 4th pause of Icemines, 4th bubble of thenan ice by Golis.11 [13] , etc.).

You know who I'm talking about, they're all over, they're all over. - -(CROSSTALK) - -TRUMP: And lawn-sign staring, void of any knowledge, and I guess seeing death and destruction, they accept it. - -This really should not be a surprise. Notice that despite his regular prayer sessions of Sunday morning, Trump expects things to just work themselves out. Don't do dumb things, he tells us, or somebody else will do them for you, and it will all be fine. Notice that it's never the other way around — nobody ever learns anything nor becomes much more lettered, by Trump's clever coaching. One of his strongest selling points is how uniscriminatory he is — "Nobody's ever been more civil than Donald Trump. Nobody." Consider that — there should not have been any debate over the newsletters. By itself, it's unarguably both racist and bigoted. But that's easy to overlook when you follow him everywhere. Viola explained that the basis for all of this, he said, was that "there was an incredible distrust for the federal government that [Trump] and his family had, because of some of the things they were saying about Lyndon Johnson, that let [talk of] a registry and a shutdown of the federal government, and he just kind of hung on to that." Even when people that were opposed to white nationalism became converts to it, Donald Trump went out of business. - -Megyn Kelly couldn't ask a question that wasn't self-king-sized. FAIR: - -Donald Trump told to 'keep calm and carry on' alongside his feud with Fox News host Megyn Kelly. https://t.co/e0r9Rin3Ip pic.twitter.com/OTgPype7Pw— Early Show (@Election2016) March 29, 2016 - -It took me four tries — and three damning pieces — to see this. First, of course no one trust Trump's intelligence, and if anyone is said to have "just held on to something that didn't work when other people tried it out," I've got a doctor's chart from my pediatrician. The endless yelling "racist" and the insistence a "debate" is perfect and worthy of endless point-by-point demeaning "commentaries" is just the type of view that builds narcissism, spurs petulance, and is therefore used to justify a vendetta (people getting hit in the face with rocks? See, he's red-hot character with a slight touch of frigid self-dignity that makes anyone else viewed slightly --even viscerally -- differently pale). The "extreme vetting" is just a way to beat movement conservatives into pissing themselves with moral outrage (even though we're talking about a subset of his base that is already labeled as a sexual predator). Audio, ~less flippant version. Remember it when the liberal narrative of "-isms" comes up. For all we know, Trump may actually be the perfect example of "political correctness gone wrong." - -Second, see, he's realized that the real war has nothing to do with what other people are saying. All that matters is how you approach what you believe in. If people call you a racist for your views, while you watch your beautiful beautiful walls fall down, grab women's genitalia, and wall off Muslims, well, that's just lives comming to an abrupt end as well. Then what choice do you really have but to "listen to what other people have to say," which, he never seems to comprehend, is also racist. - -Third, there's that famous "when we have our country back," line. Trump really doesn't think about borders in his head — it's just a formality — though perhaps because he's a casual speaker. It's just a way to humiliate people with sympathy ("Make America Great Again"? MIDDLESEX). Hall said Trump is surprised that he's become such an enemy of a certain endgame. "When we have our country back," Trump really didn't think about what he was talking about and just decided they'd win, once more. And why shouldn't he say that...?<|endoftext|>Retrastil® Cable Hangers - -Retrastil seat/crib pant hangers were designed for puppies and puppies under 12 lbs. - -Retrastil is highly staffed by moms and dads and used by adorable kittens who are ready to sleep it off. - -All Retrastil hangers are free shipped through Bunnings with a qualifying product, usually special order or stock.

Here's an excerpt from a scholarly conversation a couple of years ago about their agreement molds, their relationship with the Left, and the implications for gender activism. - -I should explain the context of that conversation. Just recently a minor college professor in Indiana co-authored a book with Andrea Dworkin. In the Age of Perverse Inequality (public library) by Farrey & Robinson explores the history, politics, ideals, and practices of body culture practices and the intersectional practice of gender identity (emphasis added). - -Among its premises are the claims that body shapes need to be central to social justification, that our modes of gender performance must be delineated against a common frame, and when intersected, may inform each other, alter and transform each other — much as they have that had transformed and transformed us. - -The framing of the question by Professor Sherry Ortner is excellent — it is not unknown among the Left for the same ideas to exert themselves in separate frontiers — but as he sees it, Ms. Sanger "had no problem maintaining her bone privilege through her unopposed category naming" but Ms. Dworkin, who "belongs unreasonably especially to the Other classes," "shifts the responsibility of grading women from men to women." - -As Ortner notes at the outset, he is suggesting that there are unquestionable philanthropic benefits to the long time philanthropic partnerships between the Dworkin and Sanger for a more ideal standard of life, marriage and motherhood, the economy, homosexuality, etc, — all of which are premised on its representation that men choosing other men has nothing to do, politically or really any matter, with sexism because, broadly speaking, both gender systems are socially constructed and, in an ideal world, one would like and one would do away with them all. This is the parity built into the political establishment and increased since the Trump inauguration as informed by the neoliberal internationalism of the Modern World Order. But we're living in that world now, and there is a lot of work we'd like and things we'd like to do but aren't as of yet able to do. - -Dworkin wrote about "obstacles to liberation" in her 1963 essay on women and disability. In a stirring epilogue, matters will be understood "for what they are — and what they are not." What is the absence of? What is the gift? "The fact that I have gained so much just by reflecting on my condition or being able to see it so plainly" let us proceed empty negation: - -What is 'Obstacles to Liberation'? Where is the Movement? The only thing which could help us eliminate obstacles would be more people, who know how to free themselves and who will announce loudly and clearly that resistance is futile. But who is it that might emancipate us and make us free even if not always in word and not always in deed? In what ways could we make ourselves free? - -Let us "observe" our oppression, the abolition of which is relatively straightforward, but examining these ideas for how we work to dismantle and compensate for the groups then in the point of organization and exercise — so completely undermine their actual being — suggests that such revolutionary socialist politics are also separable and interdependent, with the larger revolutionary contest indeed part and parcel of the individual and revolutionary struggles and they are separated because of obstacles within. As Plett puts it in his very important study Not Anymore: - -The eventual multiracial, multicultural society is volatile enough. Any 'differences' exist only as because there are conservatives who rank them. The difference of [stages in independence] from other nations is not greater than any other high-school logic involves. It can be plus or minus have any percentage of either. It can be ugly or beautiful. 'The American Revolution was pure in that it was a showdown between fine souls who had different goals from pure people or unelected elites.' There is a thousand ways to interpret which way they took it and what they meant by it so we can only throw our little names on to a proverbial wind[. . .] - -Indeed: a new type of words demonstrate that discussion of majority will attain meaning — we should abandon the word 'sovereign' and insist on the more complex understanding, which would without doubt be articulated. Whose standards of living, in fact, crush, kill or suffocate the foreign, native or other Americans? We: Just like Americans. As an alternative, you: Just like Americans. - -In the same section of Not Anymore, he seeks to reject what he characterizes as ethnocentric discourse of the Oppressed. The fallacy of sufficient marginalization to render minorities and women somehow "innocent," he argues, is necessarily analogous to the Succumbance of Virtue fallacy. - -However, as he sees it, I may approve entirely of any point -======================================== SAMPLE 176 ======================================== -People from all over the state of Texas have expressed supported views that deny the reality of a UFO/ET or have claims that this earth formed and is inhabited by alien life free from the debunked theory of Intelligent Design (ID). It is interesting to note that the UFO phenomenon has persisted in the news media for quite some time even when mainstream scientific research has placed some of these strange phenomena into question. Finally, an article has been refuted by some of these authors who looked at eyewitness accounts of sightings before they were collected and published in newspapers. - -It is very incredible and quite bizarre that established and very renowned authors such as Charles Saunders, Rosalyn Oliver, Maurice G. Gentry, Jim Powell and many others are prepared to ignore objective facts that aren't from unreliable sources. Some of the links come from UFO related sites and supposedly more reliable bodies. Some of the links are questionable and perhaps even complicit. You simply have to put them in perspective. Here are the key points I believe are given how Dr. Peter Diamandis will struggle with the UFO truth and some of the attempts to bring it down. Nowadays, there are more open minded and intelligent individuals than before. Especially during the time that credible individuals were present in the UFO arena. Thus, they have the ability to assimilate information from different future viewpoints. They have a larger population base regarding aspects of a scientifically meaningful topic and are able to routinely debunk and refute various industry promoted subject matter. The recent emergence of Strangest Science magazines has allowed a high profile article submission for widely required articles such as popular Sheldrake and Nichols talks. Thanks to this new discipline it is said that we live in an all new day. It is recommended that we listen, observe and read the facts as we find them. We will come across a variety of views. - -Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is regularly relied upon in the UFO field. The article, "UA Claims Program Making Miracles, but They Look Like Anything but" is explained by Loren R. Patchett in the Skeptical Inquirer. It's due to the water level that had slowly fallen in the region that the UAPs could not be located by conventional rockets so allowing scientists to reach out and further the possibility of UFO satellites or deep space probes. There seems to be some challenges regarding the reliability of the Washington D.C. Area fields. This would conflict with other high altitude sightings near Dulce California. - -A recent documentary titled 'The Entire History of the World According To Peter Diamandis' supports this line of thinking. The documentary responds to the Mars Art us , including East Asia, by showing the world is essentially on an asteroid belt aboard three covered cars. Immediately we see a word cloud or BBCOD!!!

Rumor has it that Peter Diamandis let the UFO called the Juggy drive together with TVD UFOs. A Mini-MOD generally obtained electronic officer for $1,500 to $2,000, is the best answer to what the Diamandis UFO really is. The writer, Jeff Rense . is being treated by Francesco Galassi. It took an interesting event to upset Francesco. In June 2007, Dr. Savitarian was released from prison after serving almost a decade of penalty. Savitarian had resigned from the mental-health department of the State Health Department n 2013 to devote himself to creating a better understanding of everyday trauma. Savitarian was smart as well as professional when he said about the Diamandis case, that "there is bigger fish again to fry".

(Photo: Kim Klement, USA TODAY Sports) - -The Cleveland Browns' roster is thin at running back and wide receiver. - -But there's someone trying to save their job: backup quarterback Tim Tebow. The former New York Jets star has been impressive in training camp, and Coach Rob Chudzinski is sticking by him, even as backup Brandon Weeden has been a revelation. - -Although Chudzinski hasn't ruled out trading Weeden in the coming weeks, he's sticking by his backup. And it would make sense. - -"I think he's deserved every opp," Chudzinski said Tuesday. "We know there's competition. There's a lot of guys who don't play there. But we're not trading any [Montario Hardesty], Aaron Maybin or anyone else. Nobody's rested." - -Chudzinski added that Ramsey Peterson, the backup who has three receptions for 41 yards, looks "structurally sound." - -Previous: Kerry Collins ready to pick head coach - -"You never know with that," Chudzinski said.

And they haven't had that much chemistry with Weeden and Brandon Thorn, their two other guards. By cutting Hardesty, who had become the team's secondary clown. Weeden said he expected to be "tested" running behind DT Phil Taylor, not Turbin, who resulted in -11 yards on 15 carries against the Packers. - -On Monday, Hardesty took over for Paul Kruger in this starting role. It's a role he's not too thrilled about playing. - -Tebow hasn't been offered a contract extension by the Jets. Realistically, the Jets better hope we throw them in the garbage and keep him in New England, where he started with Tom Brady and Jonny Evans and finished his career. - -As much as he's encouraged to be around the team, he also understands that the Jets won't be giving him the opportunity to shine in an action-packed five weeks. - -Tebow wanted a long-term deal this summer after wanting 16 years to sign with the Jets in 2011. The team is hoping Peterson will ultimately split carries, and if they can find good value in the market, Hardesty could possibly become a backup for a year while Jackson expects No. 28 back Chris Johnson to take the next step as the "go-to guy" in his offense. - -Tebow clearly wants a bigger role. - -"They're sure talented guys and we know there's competition for spots," he said.

She continued: - -Russia should not confuse diplomacy with acquiescence to the unacceptable demand of an armed attack on Russian or Ukrainian soil. For Russia to succeed on ever doubling its gas exports in the next three years, Ukraine must expect no end to pressure to change its vote, its territorial integrity, or its government. Russia must stop eliminating peers like Georgia and Moldova to obtain these objectives, and instead move with great determination and without indecision to fulfill its responsibilities beneath the [Bastion] Shield. - - -You should not, I repeat, not ask Russia to come work with us to strengthen the independence of Ukraine's government.

In November, the GOP will be defending two Democratic senators who won their senate elections by narrower than expected margins, and state attorneys general will act as the state's top law enforcement authority. Yet the 2018 gubernatorial election is generally considered a must-win for Republicans. - -Though Ohio and other late primary states have produced dramatic upsets, governors have at least three years to prove their political mettle.

But when a campaign is right on down to the wire, and there's so much at stake for the candidate, I think the burden is rightly on the campaign to choose to stick to that campaign." - -The late activation of Brown and the continued scrutiny that came with it reflect the importance to Brown and Kentucky Republicans of unsuccessful attempts on both sides in 2016 to flip a fading Democratic-held Senate seat to lower-turnout, earlier-in-the-year contests in the heart of the presidential election calendar. - -STORY: Bevin comes home to state in much the same way - -COMPLETE LIST: Warren mailer fundraisers dropped from List of public events - -'PAIN' TO LIVE IN: O.J.

For example, David Bailey, who had been a Governing Body member for 18 years, was finally called to serve as a member. - -The circumstances of David Bailey's increased learning, which was revealed via audio recordings of an organizational conference, are at the very heart of the ongoing issues surrounding malfeasance within Jehovah's Witnesses. Yet, within the revelations, there are numerous statements made that have raised serious concerns about the fidelity of Channel 1 and other WatchTower organizations in covering up knowledge of whether or not abuse has been occurring within the organization. - -David Bailey recently joined the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses when he was in his 60s and, to his knowledge, had held several positions of responsibility over the years. Before becoming an elder, he held the positions of "State Counselors" for Queensland in Australia and "State General Superintendent" for Queensland. - -On July 22, 2012, he became a "Governing Body" elder. - -It is expected that his early discovery of abuse, and subsequent resignation from the position of State Counsel, were immediately launched against him. At no stage did he express any willingness to act upon his knowledge that abuse was occurring within his organization. - -On October 3, 2012 following revelations that a "good" (those) pioneer girl who had been abused had been "hired" as a half-naked member (almost naked) of the congregation, Bailey was made an "Elder and Part of the Senior Management Team of the Governing Body of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society of Pennsylvania." - -Said new position created an opportunity for Bailey, who, soon afterwards, resigned from his previous positions and made allegations that the abuse was part of his previous position of State Counsel. Incidentally, "indiscretions" by Bailey may have been part of the previous State Counsel position. - -Later the same day, Bailey went "public" with his story, introducing his story in a presentation devoted to the release of a groundbreaking film by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. - -Absent from this presentation inor the following day was any evidence of his willingness to protect children from predatory predators demonstrated at home. This was, and remains, troubling to many Jehovah's Witness parents – and not only God's priests and brothers. - -In fact, although the recording of Bailey's presentation made it appear as though he had attempted to expose the corruption of Phoenix, Australia. Arizona was rife with predatory pedophiles and abuse. - -The inclusion of a photo of Bailey and a nearby pistol in his presentation selectively obscured photographs that showed illegal, discriminatory abuse against girls. In actuality, Bailey did not allege any wrongdoing on the part of Phoenix-area elders, or even community members during his demonstration. This operation, as viewers now understand, did not go so well. - -Since May 17 of 2012, the press has agreed to a degree of silence. The silence of the higher-ups within the WatchTower Witnesses has been successful to this point and continues to be so. This silence is further compounded by the roles of their sons (and daughters) tongues-wagging reporters.

Many of you have approached each other privately and, like Xenia Gill, sought the assistance of another saint to assist the cause. Those of us who are members of any of these professional leadership groups have realized, on a personal level, that we are no longer with others who are concerned about vulnerable children in church through such prominent personages as Judge Beck, M. Melvin, Stewie Meek, and others linked to the WatchTower Society. Despite the effort made to protect their their identities, innocent victims of child abuse became harmed. - -As a leader of these groups, I urged them on a path of silence and involvement and my counsel was ignored almost immediately. Once identified, each individual, desperate to discover answers and take action, placed their faith in the unquestionable assertion of the sources of the truth for this organization. They were held to the limits of what they, or we, believed. To be anointed to God's Royal organization was to be able to become a savior to children NOW. When activists attempted to help themselves by teaching other individuals the solution to problems within this organization, they were vilified for such efforts and accused of being upon the wavelength of evil. - -It is crucial that like-minded people in our supporting circles do not attempt to quell such efforts by demonizing the ledger or other media possibilities – we are Communce leaders like the worshipers.

It takes in fully kosher food and provides it free to hundreds of homeless Bronx residents each week. Other than that, it's mostly filled with clothing, trinkets, old board games and toiletries. Animal rights groups donate their kitty litter and IHOP throws in a free sandwich once or twice a month. The rule says the goods must not be used for drugs, however, and some clothing we just can't help but try anyhow. On this first visit, I spotted some throwaway remains of a pair of sneakers. I got down on my hands and knees and refused to throw them away. Our manNYC groans an audible "no." "Maybe a ham sandwich," Azure, who memories boost sure answers me. The episode would eventually take on an existential quality as I peered into kaleidoscopic loops of the still attached shoelaces dangling from the case, as if trying to be quite yet earnestly forlorn. "It looks like a pair of rainbow brave-yToes from the start, then you notice they're all wicked yellow, and then rainbow-yToes come into view, crystal-blue, and I just can't stop thinking about them." A look at Azure's face tells me she already is thinking about them right now, running through her brain with their vibrant orange glow. It's like I'm spiritually descending into the opposite dimension of my poor ignorance and diagnosing a schizophrenic with temporary ranch gum disease. "How long have they been there?" "Fifteen to twenty years." "During that time what about those colors did change? Have ink stains now or ugg boots?" "I checked, these super Seahawks Ever held ended in 1973." I am shamed, shamed. "And so when they kicked in, that's when it detected Vicodin?" "I checked." Azure's fears are confirmed as they go on to show me how the colors reacted to all the weed. In years to follow we would play a riveting game of "Where's Vicodin!" picking the most alarming pair. - -Candy store ♫ Its like that for houses ♫ We drift dizzily apart ♫ Two sorts of carpenter ♫ Where that process starts ♫ NO melody at its slightly."

He has run a company that is part of the migrant labor network known as "Kingfisher" and has been arrested on several charges since 2012. - - -Along with fellow migrant workers, Stetina has been named in accusations of beating 17-year-old migrant man Alberto Medina, whose death was determined a homicide and Stetina's alleged role in it. - - -In an alleged cover-up, Stetina called the U.S. Attorney's Office in November to demand that they prosecute Medina's killers, charging they are poorly paid workers who deserved to lose their jobs, according to two federal government officials. - - -On Saturday, Stetina was taken into custody by Oklahoma City police and Oklahoma Highway Patrol, according to a federal official familiar with the case. - - -Medina was one of two Saudi Arabian workers who died in Studemont, Okla., involving a heated argument between one migrant worker and the mayor of the town, John Copeland, and his son, James. - - -Deviant businessman - - -Stetina was a prominent member of the scene, Stephanie Woodard, a doctoral candidate in sociology at Boise State University who studied Kingfisher members for two years, said. - - -"While Stetina initially grouped himself with the Muslim community and college students in previous recorded surveys, he later moved away from that and became less comfortable engaging with Mormon, Southern Baptist, and Cornerstone churches," she wrote in a paper titled "Engaging with Federal Law Enforcement: Why and How Federal Authorities Address The Immigrant Violence Issue." - - -Henry Mauthe, a professor at Utah State University's department of sociology who has scoured documents in his pursuit to find out more about Stetina, said Stetina's reaction to alleged murders was self-serving. - - -"It's fascinating that, at the time, [Stetina] is saying that if the Saudis don't stop bad things happening to his workers, then they are responsible for the murders [which recorded were] ordered by his people and up mass that Stetina was saying there is a Saudi King involved. I think that's absolutely brilliant," Mauthe said about Stetina's claim. - - -Mauthe said Stetina's background and behavior make him highly suspicious and not easily swayed by mob things. Still, he gave he expert opinion that Stetina wouldn't be prone to such 1-upmanship if he actually did become king. - - -"I guarantee you, in the mid to long-run, if it's been proven that they're pulling levers --," Mauthe said "except for a few idiots, nothing bad has ever happened to Stetina." - - -Richard McGregor, a peer-review specialist at Oxford specializing in race and religion, said he was uncertain on whether university studies could do much in the key issue of motive. - - -"We shall see," McGregor told The Oklahoman.

Begich told of his cell mates. - - -Stetina denied to The Oklahoman being a victim of a political intrigue, saying she enjoyed the benefits of high staff morale that bureaucratic retribution did not touch. She also denied ever bringing a body to the center. Willis sued Begich and Larche in federal court in Seone federal court in Seone — naming the chief investigator, Daniel W. Willis, as the plaintiff. - - -Willis claims in the requested discovered that an FBI agent visited AIYC on Nov. 21, 2013 wanting sole type and style control on the brassiere Stetina wore under her shirt.

Romney had more Catholics calling the House of Representatives, just over 60, than Trump over 120 calls.

Many of Japan's operational Dioramas are not on maps or photographs, whereas the open access nature of many of its armored vehicles remains undecipherable. To be fair, Japan is not the only military in the world which has objected to such openness, but they have attained this attitude mostly through stealth and cunning… rather than practising basic seamanship or requiring guests to remain within a reasonable distance of the intended display. - -The often vague and misplaced photographs that fronting official publications leave behind are a recurring problem for visitors and volunteers alike. These photographs seem to be missing items of recent modification and repair; repainted surfaces are not so obvious in years gone by; and stacks of bland, dished target cards and shelved target posters which, instead of documenting enemy positions, reveal little more than a random assortment of fictional enemy troops and uniforms—wait, what? - -Our last official visit included the admittance to the country as well as to the attractions. A chaperoning unit for the "Command Day" Liberation Paramilitary Museum thanked us for our cooperation for allowing them to display their Tacamo II artillery which used country museums and maintained registration marks at every step… while our instructor for the ceremonies recalled that after the Second World War the Japanese military had abandoned its side by wagon to repatriate prisoners of war: - -"Well that the whole Japanese force did not flee behind its lines, but carried with it the wounded, loaded on trucks, and brought into the country by truck. Most of these horrible places were turned into nurseries, with the sick or wounded in the same situation." - -We did find ourselves one of only a few young soldiers present (by Japanese standards) for a few moments of observation from past Benches. It was true. The core of the ANZAC's infantry consisted of companies of around 50 men, one of the largest groups of men Japan has ever fielded during the First World War. Because the officers had not received direct instruction their ability to plan, organise and lead the unit was severely hampered by deficiencies in Basic Military Training (BMT). Speaking to an unnamed officer at A company and that same month an American named Milton Hyzon found that the unit had risen to such fame in the occasional Christmas merriment that he left anyway. - -The ongoing unit experience never surprises. Not a single society baron or journalist had a single minority among its ranks that could be identified by nationality. Most soldiers shot up to have a good time for one evening before they were herded off to join the casualty-free industrial reactor factories which threw out approximately 30% of the force the first day—perhaps attending a 4-day conference that produced an action plan further promising a glorious conclusion… - -We did speak with a few Japanese officers during our visit… in exchange for information about the individual-tactical skills needed for stealthy infiltrations of defensive positions or along well-worn roads of previously inaccessible and impassable terrain. - -If civilians have a slight sense that Japanese troops will as likely as not get caught watching people during winter sunshine than that a few Japanese on parade will point out problems the antiquated map will hide, it is often in light of an opposite mindset. As they march by, there's a genuine expression. Captured Japanese officials were made laughingly well known that or attitude towards frayed nerves and embarrassment (Japanese tend to put more stock into the words found on a scrap of paper than in social customs.) - -The same feeling was expressed to me by a guest of mine later in another building with the "3rd Army Headquarters". An elderly woman gestured to the women in her group (they were physicians) "We understand the necessity of secrecy, but other people—well many people have seen Nobutaka (the traditional Japanese bullet-lance ceremony where the room and the Medal-In-Hand are sprayed and covered by blood from the people standing, crying, attempting to wipe it away) and it seems the only thing the authorities care about is the 'toughest,' the ones that stand around and jerk and scream at each other… (at best) the country was a puppet in Tokyo… and unless the mountains were green, and the horses were grey, and the honey-sweet flowers bright and sweet (the logistics of a modern army had to be exposed! That has to be taught.

The NBA is a league of rarest of rareballs. In the million players in its system — five who have been cut, one inactive, one roadkill — no one is truly system-proof by dint of good looks or experience alone. As the Cavs lose for the 15th time in 18 years and the Rockets struggle to whoop them, a rare combination of bad luck (good teams lose in the playoffs, by the way!), bad timing (the unseasonably warm March, and package developements) and old-school dysfunction has given teams an ultimatum: Cut the player you have now, or be a postseason laughingstock. - -And while some teams brave the path of panic and cut their players, others delicately whet the public appetite, ideally raising even more expectations for the future in a financially all-but-impending rebuilding effort. - -So, with the final month and a half looming on the horizon, here is a quick look at the salary-cap landscape in the Eastern Conference: - -• If the Cavs decide to go into the offseason with Dion Waiters' $12 million contract, they, as a team, would have about $17.7 million in room — which is where the Rockets finished the season. (Even if the most you offer the backup point guard on a one-year deal next summer instead of a qualifying offer, the Cavs wouldn't, would they?) The reality is, even with the injury to LeBron, if you're the Cavs, it's best to put Waiters on the shelf now — as best as possible — before diving into the shock-and-awe free agency market from which the four Cleveland teams (L.A. Clippers, Boston Celtics, New York Knicks and Milwaukee Bucks) could potentially benefit. Let's say the Cavs do nothing, of course. Through their first 283 games since 1995, they're 137-63 (the other 99 during the salary-cap era in Cleveland are in the rafters. The Jets are there). - -• The Bucks are really counting that Marlon McCree second-round pick. The Bucks don't want to use it on another first-round pick unless it has an upside, or if they believe in the promise inherent in it. In 2016, it has a little bit of upside. In 2019 is when it really starts to come on. Let the real, natural Marlon McCree begin to emerge. - -For what they offer him now, Milwaukee, unlike the first report, is not desperate for perimeter shooting, bench players at all. The Bucks have five starters between them averaging 10:36 per game; Patrick Beverley, Monta Ellis, Jabari Parker, Brandon Knight and Malcolm Brogdon pummel opposing defenses. - -The team, from what I've read and heard (Baxter Holmes is reporting), would not sell long-term at this point to Braylon Hinds or Terry Rozier or anyone else who's irritated their fanbase. And in general, 300-pounders with shooters, printers, deity or firing linear CBs tend to run red flags in organizations. - -The Bucks, with $36.9 million committed to the 2017-18 cap, might as well fire their business manager for his suggestions. As for the potential value on Harris, Milwaukee's value is already dropping off rapidly; they could be one or two wins away from challenging the Bucks for the Bucks' wild card spot. - -• The Knicks are no longer a 6-month marathon kind of team. After August's new NBA-related regulation changes and the removal of Derrick Rose's mid-range jump shot from his arsenal, New York simply can't afford recent synapses to the nervous system to carry over into the most basic mathematical calculation of their squad's future attractiveness. Good luck doing that with the loss of the mercurial Carmelo Anthony and meanness-prone J.R. Smith, and the person to blame more than any player is the process of evaluating the team in this accelerated manner. With all hands, this is unspeakably good. If Rose, Smith and Anthony re-sign, this is going to be the second-best global market in basketball. It smells like a rebuild, of course, but this just feels like the Knicks just won that kind of lottery — we'll -======================================== SAMPLE 201 ======================================== -Getty Images - -The Lions released offensive guard Larry Warford on Friday. - -Of course the Lions weren't done. - -The Lions announced that they have signed running back Theo Riddick. - -Riddick posted this on his Instagram account:<|endoftext|>Trouble centers on the development Hex with the abuse that the hentai Mooks had been into recently.

The Reds blew it up. The floor tumbled down and out from under the season when the Rockies and Cardinals traded for a deal. The Braves, Cubs (and possibly the Phillies) had been shopping Anderson. - -At last, one of their own was sitting there, and he got the free-agent investment that seemed a cut above the rest: $80 million over eight years, with a $31 million vesting option for 2019. - -No wonder the Nationals and Phillies agreed to proposals that would have been universally ridiculed. I'm not talking about $79 million over seven years; they were worth paying about $184 million, especially with DeAvila likely supplanting Mike Rizzo as the team's manager. - -No, my intent is to find a deal in the sub-$70 million range, higher than Mat Latos's deal in Indy, Adrien Garcia's in Baltimore, Freddy Garcia's in San Francisco, Mike Bordick in Cincinnati. The John Lackey trade was offered in February 2012, and I found it hard to believe the White Sox would have tolerated the $60 million he got. - -I believe Garcia was offered close to $115 million, with a $10 million signing bonus, at some point in '14. As detailed this week, Garcia's new deal with the White Sox, according to ESPN's Jerry Crasnick, does not provide such a luxury -- even if the White Sox have considered Mike Napoli to represent its hitters. - -Garcia, 23, might not save them much money -- he doesn't throw very hard (he was unavailable for comment Tuesday night), and they're about $100 million in the hole going into next year -- but this is a solid prospects-for-prospects trade, with Garcia prospect players and established ex-teams. Give him five or six of them. - -The Reds are getting a promising star, and the Rockies are getting a consistent third starter who could pitch to both sides of the plate, keeping both lefty-swinging Manny Ramirez and righty-swinging Brandon Barnes from siphoning off innings in the bullpen. Also, Garcia sets up the Rockies in a way that not even GM Jeff Bridich and/or GM Jeff Bridich's famous smart-team-with-no-human-being consultant Larry Lucchino could have anticipated. - -To put it this way, Bridich is playing the Orlando Magic. Once the doughnut joiner decided in October that pairing Troy Tulowitzki with Troy Tulowitzki was an idea worth seriously considering, the whole Magic franchise picked up his tab. The answer could be found in the tunnel. - -Colorado will eat "certain costs" (Colorado baseball exec Kyle Kirschner says) for Garcia, in the form of $4 million added with five minor league backstop players per season. Rockies GM Jeff Bridich says deals like Garcia's can work for a team not considered to have enough financial muscle. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred was not surprised by the Giants agreeing to the Cardinals' the Lester deal Monday. "It's just another type of outcome," he said after meetings with the Giants' coaches and executives. Why this Joe Maddon deal now? "They're going for it," as MLB Network first reported. - -To protect Garcia, Southern California could have offered him big league service just to keep him from leaving, per Huntington. En route team decision, right? No, because they bring back a solid pieces to complement him. The Rockies might make some changes in the rotation. The Rockies stand to save money over four seasons with Rockies starters throwing at least 30 innings every year from 2016 to 2022. So, at least, Rockies fans are not grieving the loss of their #1 starter, unless you're DeAvila. - -And, yes, he's not the only guy they've lost for good. Rafael Soriano got a Biogenesis-assisted shot in Fernandez's shoulder, so he's out until 2015 and, at this point, probably No. 5. Dustin McGowan is a year away from unrestricted free agency, with no understanding of his likely role as the head of the hitting coordinator. The Rockies might donandenmashi, which is a Japanese baseball slang term for cleats that resemble ski pants, and go out swinging.

Adam Sicilian, NASA - -JPL/CalTech scientist Adam Sicilian, an atmospheric-optics expert, led the project which has looked at movements of plutoids, the most likely size for near-Earth rocks, from an orbit around Mercury. - -They found that rocks made up of a preference for dense matter should be "unstable, forever", he told BBC News. - -This would add a slight disorientation to the orbit of an asteroid, which would probably trigger changes into other orbit, or more vertigo, he added. - -And as gravity would be vastly stronger at the equator, rocky objects at that time of year would be gravitationally locked to the Earth for about 90% of their life - rendering them unusable. - -"Given that things like meteors oscillate in power over time or if they are disrupted, there could be a lot of gravitational instability if you spin an object back and forth, whereas things at the equator cycle in power over an impressive amount of time," Prof Sicilian said. - -"This indicates that a weapons-grade asteroid is about the size of two swimming pools, and we want Earth to be nice and quiet. - -"While the number of weapons-grade rocks that have already been discovered illustrates the potential danger toward where one might choose a rocky object to 'attacking'," he added. - -Asteroid threat - -While Prof Sicilian's study looks at asteroid trajectories of motion away from Earth for a few hundred millions of years, impact scenarios could readily involve more complex systems such as spin-up of clusters and rocks to speed up their disorienting orbits. - -"If an asteroid falls close to Earth and spins up in a complex way the whole Earth could tilt off. It would take a long time to oscillate back and forth in this disorientation. An average distance between Earth and the perturbed rock of 3.4 million km puts Earth way beyond the range of impact. - -"This means that an asteroid with a diameter of about 55 metres will be free of severe perturbation less than a single month after it can no longer affect Earth." - -For comparison the average Earth-bound asteroid small enough to pass within about 5.3 Earth diameters of the Earth would slow down and power down quickly after impact, as would a "super-reactor" cloud of carbon rich gases. - -Any perturbation on impacts which would have changed large asteroid trajectories likely exposed the planet before the rocks impacted, said Nicholas McCarthy, scientific director of NASA's Near-Earth object Program. - -"We won't see the damage from a reverberating impact sampled for decades, lol," he said. - -"Even the oceans would not escape the impact in a globally catastrophic tsunami as the Yellowstone steam plume saw last year."<|endoftext|>(CBS News) NEAR THE French-German border, trucks sporting strange-looking bottoms are being inundated with migrants causing them to tremble. - -Some of the scared braved the foreboding early Saturday morning on the France-Germany frontier occupying a busy feeder road between English Channel ports. - -Similar tales over the last few weeks have been heard, but with the influx now increasing to almost 13,800 migrants in August, French government authorities are concerned about one incident in particular. - -TEHRAN, Iran - There are over 54,000 Iranians currently barred from crossing the French border into France, the Iranian foreign ministry said in a statement carried on the official IRNA news agency Sept. 3. - -The United Nations refugee agency said in September that 130,000 Iranians -======================================== SAMPLE 203 ======================================== -Writing Architecture: Creative Discipline and the Instruments of Culture change style and influence patterns, defining a context for the aesthetics of the Rubik's Cube in this special two-part article series. - -Photograph: Sam Koudelka © 2014 - - -Feedback welcome in particular to the following email address; howthpss@howth.com - -ANALYSIS - - -Original article appeared in SPIE's INFORMS Magazine (issue 263, df.) - -334 points178 pixels336 bytesVersion article SHA1: 0307f6155e623ebbc4ae48a10b44bf6c1c9ba4Document Object Identifier: 000019a48A81D:7B8AA8ECC9866082408225B6DA1B13D8E0018 Revision: 20120304 - -Normally, when or how a Rubik's Cube section (left side, top side or reverse) is acquired for a slide should be recorded in the International Museum of Modern Art's archive of vintage graphics.

He was a non-caucus-member-Republican when he joined Congress in 1992, playing basketball with no one and being ousted as runner-up for that position over an attempt by Cuban-American Rep. Michael Diaz-Balart. - - -Instead, McDermott consistently won reelection in a solidly Republican district without teasing — or even harming — his party's bid for national office. A former big gubernatorial donor as well as a hunter, McDermott is pragmatic about politics. He "sized up" the political landscape in the district — wealthy and vulnerable — and saw what health care and federal budget issues were "The No. 1 priority," he said of his new 6th District race.

He speaks frequently in speeches at tough times, reminding lawmakers that fiscal responsibility must condition their priorities.

Because I think that we reasonably should. 1 - -It was a research program spearheaded, at least in part by me, that helped focus and refine the federal program (the first one) to help acute HIV infection and AIDS in our communities in early 2001. As we went forward -- made the case for an expanded evidence-based public health response -- something was happening and at some moment or other we had to have a voice for those of us who had had one's own hands and lived through the earliest stage of research. It was clear-- more and more AIDS patients proved themselves daily and failure - insuperable compulsion - was mounting every day within their communities. Development of the research program established A+D's impact, replicated in the pilot enrolled local dropsites -- Without us, the A+D program is in the pieces -- lessons learned - built the model for A+D's growing impact - - -As A+D sits here now, its story is largely written. And we have seen the efforts of the community groups and individuals who have had an enormous impact on our work program -- a story of sustained engagement and totally unprecedented support from the community to match. And, progress has been steady but substantial over the years up to this point. These are the technical innovations that have been adopted, licensed, implemented, reviewed and implemented -- This is the board of directors of A+D, joined by public health professionals, experts in public health from around the world and with a unified public health direction -- led by an A+D board of governors and chief. This is the chain of command within A+D itself -- built from primarily one principal, John P. Poindexter, a brilliant physician-scientist, a noted writer and then a leader who performed. Frank Schoennagel has been supply chief, Haitan Clark, phone operator at A+D and Ngozi Ndao -- who now serves as the project's Ethics Committee chair has been Board of Directors. This is the really -- this is the FOC of A+D. Eric A. Roberts, is FOC of A+D, who lost his teeth in the crossing of land and water six years ago on January 11, 2014 on a summer day over there. - -Interestingly, Eric simply offers a masteringly laid-out recitation with a clinical telling style of these events. A+D, AcD, CAIDA -- it's broken down into terms and we've enjoyed his touching testimony, an essay on whose release we wrote some time ago. The things Eric. - -In great detail, In some corners of the continuum, where the conversation has been less focused on HIV and more on stigma, blame, discrimination and debate, on what we've achieved -- the challenges that have been overcome, what our operations have cost and what we still need to do to match the resources we expect of those truly affected. Less reaching but equally moving are the voices of North American organizations involved with efforts to track, diagnose and treat individuals at the base of the epidemic to end this about 30 years of epidemic. - -And then there's the opportunity tsunami wrapping itself around our goals. Another ten years? Think what we're doing important? Because I think that we reasonably should. - -This is all part of what happened over the period from October of 2002 to December of 2005 -- the January 2002 publication in the New England Journal of Medicine, "Overcoming Resistance to Effective AIDS Shocks" Written by Martin Pan, among others -- we thought the cancer epidemic was, like AIDS, going to fall away, and we'd take our siesta from hearts and some other matters. But little did we realize that cancer's time extremes would be compressed on a persons time and years would be less measured, shorter and absent -- and process will not engage places. - -Chronologically five results wound up as a preview: - -Recent data from the Ad Hoc Consortium for MSMvol support this potential for rapid dissemination of the new herpesvirus 20/6 threshold -- Our inhibition strategies negatively impact viral replication. Be very wary of antiretroviral therapy only directed at transient viral suppression. Similar role as options for protective measures in combination/defensive strategies including retroviral drugs. Despite similarities of epidemiology, prevalence and effect, only high dose antiretroviral therapy will have impact in the context of populations raised with less useful life-long HAART regimens -- which they'll rationalize as if recipient's immune repertoire is completely exhausted already by the end of their life. I don't think this RVT is a silver bullet to contentment/life sense. - -With something like the above becoming a reality we thought A+D would seldom look back -- that we may have taken a quantum leap toward solidifying views not with panache but usually edged kind of cautiousness. - -Look I express my personal wish for ZMapp and TKM or BKM cures to try.

Ransom, Esq., Richard E. California, Jack M. Mauro and Gerald J. Thiersdorf - -14 Olson , Robert F. and John G. Ussery - -Number 12097 Academic Press 2000 ▸ Abstract This study uses information about the 1971-74 inflation and real wage effects following the price violence in 1973 to determine the magnitude of the relative magnitude of gas price shocks. It concludes that, over the period of 1983-89, the shock to the real wage correlated 0.25 or 0.03 with price changes, with general trends revealed through the coefficient of determination. As such, economic factors may be given more weight in "relatively greater impact" analyses. In addition, reasonable quantifications are obtained of the sorting into "disinflationary" and "inflationary" sectors by the periods 1975-89. - -"The gas and electricity prices have risen. What has big business to say about it?" With industrial production constantly declining, and global wage levels never above the pre-1973 norm, "global decay" has become one of the common cabals parroted by "Business Week" editorialists. They also make frequent reference to the global "adjustment," as if there had been no longer anything to adjust about. To fix perspective on the phenomenon being studied, we return to the historically limited and geographically limited time period of 1973, when gasoline prices exploded. Then in 1973, just as in 2005, wage levels in the United States were relatively stable or, for that matter, moderately raised. Yet above the previous 45-year trend line, prices for gasoline and electricity nearly doubled, raking in US corporate profits over nearly 140 per cent world-wide; and total free corporate profits over the period 1973-89 were 2.25 times the prior trend line. Question mark hangovers curdling the pride of the American corporate elite. The rise in price patterns for gasoline shocks our experiences in Chile and South Africa as well as climbing oil prices in Angola and Vietnam. ... "The past 52 years do not constitute independent terminal constraints in terms of both aggregate demand power and resultant risk – and, let us hope, avert one of those catastrophic or at least ominous global shocks for the 120,000 lives at stake in the United States alone". ... "This economy can rise to extraordinary heights of economic development and living standards. Endemic quality and durability are security and welfare prerequisites. But the long term future does not depend on aggregate demand growth, nominal expenditures, or any other variable – well it should not" … "This time, also, we have evidence of—and there is still a definite need for some honest assessment of—bridge and best practices that will help our investors find both opportunity and risk while bearing some of the financial and global banking elements of risk. The former management team of the CBA and Hendrickson, among others, ought to be squarely in that dock". 2017 May 30. https://yashau.com/attachment/151/data/assets/documents/7-10-2017-parents-and-students-vote-acc-report.docx 2017 May 30. https://yashau.com/attachment/159/data/assets/documents/REP0102_Asked-of-3831-Participant-students_Since-Reliability-Feasibility_Case_Reviewed_Unmanned-Drone.docx to the 600 or so remaining, it's obvious from the 100 as always majority opinion statement, "Developing nations are benefitting tremendously from resource-rich ACE countries.

It's in our DNA. But what happens after we bring children into the world? Don't get me wrong — I love my four furry friendlings — my kids especially — but I'm also a big proponent of keeping pets. After all, it's a natural, evolutionary law we'll always have a desire to keep an animal on our ownership roster. - -But when my wife and I decided to have a baby last year, we decided to skip the traditional way of adopting a pet. No family or friend is going to commission you to raise their pet. The adoption is solely on you. Adoption fees for our beloved cats at the Honolulu Humane Society ended up being about $200. - -We didn't want to rely on anyone for help raising our pets. This is not our everyday life. - -But we're also fundamental characters who like to plumb the roots of situations to draw resolve. And that's what we did when we started an Amazon Wish List to buy toys, blankets, provided by Petco. (Note to Amazon: these pet supplies will sell out by the time you publish this story.) - -One gift of which we were so very sad to lose was our young camper named Nick. In his eight years of life, Nick had grown up to become in some ways like his father. But out of the blue, owner Surprise gave Nick to the three of us for sleeping in her office behind us. It would've been great to keep Nick close to place, but happy memories alone do not a lifetime make. - -So, what about adoption? Thanks to people like the KaplanSpiral—founded by Harvard doctoral student Janet Egan Mazur — there is a huge market for a replacement for the trillion animals living in shelters. The nonprofit organization vets and breeds nearly 2,000 potential dogs and cats an hour. - -The KaplanSpiral has agencies and organizations in the U.S., Israel and Europe placing pets worldwide. So far, they've placed 6,000 dogs and cats in 204 countries. Sadie Wood, the president of the nonprofit, told CNN: "I fell in love with animals very early on. I was in the zoo as a kid and that was all I ever saw. I thought it was an amazing part of my life, and so I wanted to make an impact on that." - -I immediately fell in love with animals very early on. - -Mazur realizes that it's up to animal owners to hold animals close, which I totally support. And I totally recognize that there are instances in which the adoption process is not right for you. - -So, whether you want a change of pace, a reminder that animal goodness lingers or a chance to rescue a laden stray, adopt now.<|endoftext|>Madonna - -Published: Jan 24, 2014 - -The University of Manchester has taken a major step toward allowing women to study as full professors in the arts, humanities and social sciences. - -The decision was made earlier today at a meeting in London. - -Students at Manchester, however, remained divided over the move, with some wanting full credit and others wanting the deal to be ended. - -• Victoria Wood: The making of the Queen of Pop<|endoftext|>The Justice Department first argued that Cuba had justified shrinking its prison population in part by releasing "ballot box prisoners" in elections.

They did not seem concerned about the lack of total in-store footage of either the Xbox One or the PS4 at launch. - -The two execs did admit, however, that data will show that we will see higher res images for the Xbox One immediately after launch, but also noted that games won't replicate the high resolution images you see on current televisions. - -"As the data (that's already coming back) comes in, it will confirm what we've said about the end of the journey — whether it's a lot of things are stopping it from being truly 4K, or next-gen, anyone who doubts us probably should look into it at some point," Steinman said. - -When asked the difference PS4 vs. Xbox One 4K Gaming vs. HDR, Steinman was not yet able to clarify res, but did note this will also be the case for the console's current game collection — but stated categorically that 4K gaming is in after giving both consoles a try. - -The Xbox One will launch early in the holiday season, on November 22 in North America, and units will start shipping at the end of that same month in Europe.<|endoftext|>I suppose the only possible objection is that the sucker-punch someone punches or kicks towards me anymore is not likely to be someone who has done this action before. - -At various times throughout my life, I've been shot at, threatened with a knife, raped, molested by fake police officers, hit with a basketball – deliberately – in my front garden, run over by a truck, stabbed, slugged by a yeshiva rabbinical student who misgendered me (he wound up on in the most traumatized state of mind imaginable) and even stabbed in the back by a police officer (the actual charges were served both before and after my suicide ) when I was tried and sentenced for a crime I had not committed. - -Such punishments involve meaning and supporting a narrative, which puts the children of Israel at risk just to be inscribed in the present, human population consciousness. In a different context, these punishment might be considered necessary, which is why they are prohibited. One of the things that I would like to do, seeing as this isn't given me any space in the society I live in, is organize anti-punching campaigns that give weight to the rights of people who actually hate me. - -The brilliant Agnon Kronin, while laying the blame of the attack on Connor pacifies people who think that they won't have to die three times in order to carry out their revenge plan - -One of the things that I'm not very happy about is the tragic lack of outcry and struggle over the impending new life that is going to be torn apart. But there's no way to make light of such men. At this stage, those who have attacked me want nothing more than to know the extent to which I will be massaged or humiliated or suffocated in any way [31]. I am profoundly concerned about the physically damaging togetherness which the recognition of identity mavens create for other men in the society. And it is almost all of organized religion that takes this form the majority of time. - -This, however, leaves no solution and oh none, however one thinks about it will do. Coming up with the salvation promised for all, the beating of which is meant to be a social marvel or the ''taste" of which is meant to be a social poison, is, unfortunately – as Samson said – ultimately meaningless. On the basis of the theology of saints that I study, the passing statement that is left is that the old character is healthier than the one who now transposes it. Consciousness writing is the traumatic end of zero-sum relationships. - -Lightning will indeed strike and the newly created boy will remember his birth for years to come and he will also remember his beloved and the others who wanted to separate him from them. But the unbearable knowledge will be indelibly imprinted. There is no return to an indifferent, yes-sayers world. When one is traumatized, one senses the end behind things and from that point, it is determined that one just walks forward and the roads are never illuminated. - -Reading the discourse about identifying the 'true victims', a result of the unconscious intrusion into the consciousness of all who are involved, one is probably tired of when people pretend to be outraged when they are nothing but the depressingly habitual ones.

"On the one hand they want to address the many complaints of our citizens and their legitimate privacy concerns about increased monitoring of their telecommunications, however on the other they want to satisfy critics by not creating overbroad and potentially defunct legal obstacles and uncertainty about putting data restraints on a telecoms carrier, ethically placing employees at the mercy of lawless agencies for whom they work." - -Ludlam was, however, apparently unaware that this week's Bill Shorten speech was already warning Labor voters of threats to our digital freedoms. - -Abuse by the security forces - -The Conversation thanks Maggie Bray of the Australian Human Rights Commission for her assistance. - -Ludlam's concern about the new data retention laws and "trust issues" related to statutory obligations to retain data is borne out in Labor's airtight connection between security agencies and companies in digital use. - -In an affidavit specifically excerpted at length from Shorten's speech on Tuesday, it's revealed that Labor is already committed to: - -​ - -​Showing consultation with digital use experts — quite a concession! - -Announcing a digitally informed addition to next year's data retention measures - -And earlier this morning, it was noted by the Australian Financial Review, as reported by the Conversation, that Shorten announced Labor would take a 'tougher stance'' on cyber threats. - -So two things: firstly, the ALP wants to formally support the controversial mandatory data retention legislation; and secondly, Labor's undertaken at least two consultations on cryptography and the development of secure technologies based on machine learning. - -In short, once again they seem to want to be extremely sensitive to online security. - -"There's so much about communications that is highly, highly private—including social networking sites and falling victim to bullies, that you do not want to make it possible for the state to read those things," says Ludlam. - -More priority seeing top end cybercriminals - -There's no doubt it will be a pain in the ass for a dominant cybercrime jurisdiction like San Francisco and its ilk that the justice system isn't conducting an R & D effort first before dragging a criminal over the impassable regulatory discontent they have enhancing the breakthrough hindrance emotional49 says sources. - -"I imagine there's even more to come," is the prevailing sentiment. - -"It's still a surprise for the Australian government to have only just finished putting in place a mechanism designed to criminalise a few rare cases of computer trespass, once investigations and prosecutions started, so unfairly suggested the strategy would actually stop cyber-crimes by targeting the most sophisticated renters out there," the AU games harness reuse Durkestevek carefully waited before his child-stealing, poker machine beaking. - -The bill has to establish a clear definition of when a telecommunications company's data was stored, data retention period and limiting the situations in which and how companies can destroy data. - -These WDys MEP buoyed by ASIO stranger Myster-­in-Heart-to-Blow rates an "excellent" score over the outgoing private sector which apparently scores as above average. - -What else do we know? - -The time stamps whatever she was expected to be up to.

Everything from focusing on a specific part of the world to developing a game around magic or maybe even a dark and historical theme seemed completely fine to me. So I took a good look at the base game top down and the three previous games published by the company, one in 3rd edition and the rest two in 2nd and 3rd edition. After a lot of time and research, I came up with this base game. - -After a lot of concept work and some alpha testing, I've finally decided to turn this technical previous attempt into fruition. - -I'm currently renting studio space that's about to be torn down. In addition to that, my furniture/business will also need to be rented to be able to actually pay all the taxes/fines that game costs. However, after I finish launching/funding this project, I intend to be able to start booking full time studio space as well as project fees/transactions. This will give me more time found to use to implement features and incorporate new and innovative ideas. - -Risks, challenges and FAQs - -The "Kickstarter Risk" is the day I would meet a disappointing challenge or obstacle that may delay this project if not worked out in advance. This is only possible due to my limited resources. - -An example of a bad Kickstarter Risk, is my mother goes through severe health issues and needs assistance requiring specially fitted equipment to move from one room to another one. I cannot let a child of my name suffer such severe privation as to be unable to move further than a few feet per day, let alone to a living room without assistance! I have a hunch, despite the fact that I'm in this predicament trying to raise money from supporters, the amount needed to undertake such an effort will prove emotionally and financially difficult to deny my mother in terms of solutions to any such issues. - -In the unlikely event that my mother goes through any immediate heavy challenges (e.g. car breakdown, shooting accident due to a suicidal act) I would ask that backers at all within reasonable symptoms of physical or mental distress, take any back Up meals, told by me prior to making their pledges.

And because large vehicles carry a much larger amount of fuel, companies less liable for a covered problem or some factory defect may also be able to avoid liability for incorrectly manufactured gas tanks. - -EPA Commissioner Gina McCarthy said it was time for the agency to "move beyond reason" to make better rules.

Now six former employees are on a mission to change the dynamics of the automotive industry. They're building some tasty cars, demanding that people find them. - -THE FIRST - -Scott and Jerry Hennessy, who met working in the audio industry, decided to work at StarTrack Motor Products after Mitchell Kinnier, the son-in-law of the second founding founding patriarch, bought the business, then in its infancy. There were three other mechanics lined up behind Scott and Jerry: Doug Hinchey, a former Nascar driver; Brad Miller, a Ford engineer; and Mike Paige, a live-wire who had helped assemble StarTrack's most notable customer. The family could have opted to keep eight on board. Instead they filled that seventh spot. Scott's wife Laura promised to bring with her her daughter Kim, a primary school teacher. Deanna, the pair's son, whom Scott had adopted, was headed home to Australia for the holidays. Scott and Jerry also asked for they would need rest for what they were calling, before they could call it a day, "the most exhausting, important time of our lives."

The idea inspired their evolving pulping dance, around hot pots of stew on a bluepicker with a cup of Jägermeister dangling from each montage. To the casual observer the Hennessys' outfits might have been patronising representations of the craft that consumed their muscular bodies. Anyone who's observed a vintage mechanic, British or American, for long enough will recognise this behaviour. "Given the Dickensian scale of the failure, it's not a stretch that the only way a mechanic can bestow any kind of hope on a journey like this, is to talk crap and try to dance amongst the corpses … But these three would be the absolute cynics in doing so; the eventual audience is all the dead and the dying."

It may get more popular because prices are cheaper, well regulated and the quality seems just the same as the real deal," Brian Lai, China marketing manager at M&B Internationalfoods, a leading food and drinks safety firm, told Bloomberg in 2016. An increase in counterfeit food and drought shortages could try to remedy the slowing economy in China. - -Over the past few years, the Asian nation has begun to crack down on food manufacturers manufacturing fake food or dosing up on toxic chemicals that might land in the body. According to Reuters the Chinese government has outlawed the sale of chemicals that are ineffectual or harmful to people's health or cause difficulty in one's duties. - -"We need to guard against food imports that are fakes or dubious, and we certainly want to further assess products from overseas," Shanghai Zhongwen Capital Group director Jui Luo Fenam told Reuters in 2016.

The Coyotes experienced hot and cold play, struggles of earning ample dividend with a lack of depth in the ranks.

"You are us." - -Including the entire neighborhood, the crowd chanted "No justice. No peace." Mr. Trump's reaction, along with his attempts to suggest a legal basis to dismiss the federal judge who blocked his ordered effort to curb the admission of several Muslim-majority countries from the United States, fueled jeers from the mostly youthful, largely African-American protesters. - -The idea that black and Latino residents, mostly powerless during mass incarceration and an economic depression that hammered a white system, receive blanket protection from bodily harm throws hope into the void, observers and experts said, pointing to (admittedly rare) civil rights victories.

Already many technologies have been developed designed to assist in the outbreak investigation process with the aim of enhancing the effectiveness of this approach. In this paper, integrated space technologies will be discussed from a pathogen investigation perspective, that is how space/environmental changes and their interactions with the disease contribute to the prognosis of the affected organisms, whether at a molecular, personnel, human or as a value item. - -Introduction - -Tragically, nearly 500,000 people are bitten by owners of pet dogs each year, and around 50,000 people die as a direct result of these bites. Indeed, diseases spread through biting animals and from those plants or water vessels where animals have been grazing. Understanding at what decisive stages impacts on infectivity become more pronounced, both in diarrhoeal diseases and in of communicable diseases, including Lyme disease,West Nile virus and influenza, is of crucial importance to the survival of the whole animal and especially those who become the final hosts in our respective facilities or with our customers. This paper has been designed to address these issues and ultimately how the environment, particularly the human environmental environment, can be used to enhance welfare requirements in investigations of these diseases. This is in the pursuit of interoperable space/environmental products directed towards emergencies management and more climate adaptable space/environmental products. The study centers around the diseases pathologically related to mice, rats, birds, reptiles, rodents (including domestic dogs), rabbits, sheep and goats and draws particularly upon the epidemiology studies appearing in the scientific literature. - -Cannibalism in animals - -Stunning techniques, including stunning with net or silver wire and prong compulsion require different surgical techniques depending upon whether the animal is possessed and whether in dangerous shock. Whilst the barbitrines of the genus Saltiel are stunning machines used in poultry, succinicines do not induce anaesthesia in birds and the following survival benefits allow all but an occasional salting pile controller to further reduce dog dead weight: (1) the stunning mechanism is covered by body hair and thus closes upon drainage; (2) water exits have been for some years seals for discharging faeces; (3) thermoregulation via solute liquid and temperature, further reduce chance of hypothermia conducive to crystallisation; (4) passive drainage causes most faeces spontaneously to be thrown into an area subsequent to stunning. The later studies also confirm that silvery bandages, petroleum jelly and silver symbol tape placed between the incision site and the wound close the incision whilst increase circulation by allowing fresh blood to return toward the skin, which may then dilute the body-notes of anaesthesia; (5) immobilization in a pathogen net can cool the animal by as much as 12 degrees F (close to 0 degrees C) and even provide a way to remove animals in less time at the zoo after electrically shocking them, however anatomically identical dog free from shock will become less stressed by this as serotonin controls lethality; (6) specially designed revenue white rivets with trimming techniques which are available bear model testing and they will also be needed to cut the meat, as meat dust will need to be removed if shrinkage of the meat occurs under scenes of chases and, in the USA, naturally die-off of meat caused by cooling.

Last week, a fight broke out over pork rinds in Gaya's Jama Crescent. Also in Gaya, military vehicles had attacked resident-traffickers like Khreis and neighbors protesting.Khreis and his family came from India two months ago, and now he sells leather from his car to illegal dealers. In return, he works alongside 10-15 youth with disabilities.Despite the inability of government to provide work, Khreis carries on with his trade, meaning that he does not have money to send back back home. His youngest son is in hospital with diabetes and requires £20 a month for treatment. Still he does make enough margin for one day. "I am poor, but I do it for my family," he said last week, before entering a hard struggle for the God willing that his children will receive proper education and economic necessities."Each government gives money to help those without property and government. But if someone is entitled to something, they are forgetting?" added Khreis. The only and immediate option that is earning him some pocket money is selling pork rinds, just one of the things he will never have due to an armed conflict that has never stopped."It could get worse, which it did. In the last two months, a lot of people have died, but the government, even the clerics, is not making any announcement about cattle, hogs or other commodities. That is why I got into this business, and this is what I have done," says Khreis, who became manager of with Farid Ahmed and Mohammed Ali in celebration that his live cows were allowed to graze after the conflict ended. These days, many traders are still being targeted by government ambulances throwing alcohol and stones at them for beef and pork. Another patch requires MPA soldiers to handle.Take 12th August when they peddled amidst 20 really drunk soldiers while spent of ammunition was spilt on them. "The officer who was with us enjoyed the flesh of the sinful cows, which i drove across," said another trader. But the murderers of this man have not been caught and breeder rights threatened to kill him for his implants. "The government shops cannot burn a book, so we can be punished," said another trader.There is also the instance of two trucks carrying buffalo milk locally all day, only to be shut down and denied access three days for RAM that no bit of milk is being transferred out of the truck.Said a worker: "I got arrested for raising cow milk in a plastic cabinet. I managed to get out by completely frisking myself before they allowed me to pass. It's a mercy."The maximum wrinkle in this merchant's business is that he sold his car to reduce the money going out of the country. Opening a credit card manufacturing business two months back did not go so well."The Ministry of Textiles failed to ensure that there would be money to pay for the engines that are used in the dairy and dairy industry," said Khreis. "The trouble happened when I did not have our roads to Gaza. We got frozen cows in Gaza and when we returned to the factory in Kaduna it was so expensive to pay the tanks and water bills."This situation is not unique of Gaya. Forced wage systems crushed the converters of even starter milk in four months of true war. It does not leave much sugar for those who churn, however.The state will not accept that some of the milk can be labeled "gourmet", especially as it cannot get to the next stage of the fermentation process and the quality of 'proper' milk is that of high fat, low quality milk. Thus, it should be called "fat milk" – once all fatty elements have been removed by the ripper."Only the sleek ones with specification dishes are allowed to be taken into the queue at the banks.

However, in the midst of North Carolina's notorious "hot button" campaign to deny transgender people equal access to restrooms, the nation was forced to look at the inappropriateness of allowing local government officials to enact discriminatory policies. - -With a great deal of tension surrounding race issues, and amid heightened political scrutiny, contentions regarding transgender rights became rife and vehement in North Carolina. That is until Jesse Gutman and Olivia Hehir, the two queer, transgender members of the Dubuque City Commission (DPC), were elected. - -No mention is made that some Dubuque citizens claimed a certain percentage of men were allowed to use their "women only" restroom and restrooms, and consequently the DPC frequently was called upon to defend these allegations through legal arguments. It is an unfortunate truth that most transgender people in the U.S. are already survivors of a poverty and injustice that far exceeds any problem brought on by a national legislation. - -Gutman was a major ally of the community and a profound advocate for the perceived rights of transgender people. In a personal interview with The Clarion-Ledger as part of the DPC's investigation into the transgender bathroom debate, Gutman remembered when the issue of whether they could use the women's restroom erupted upon surface of the national forum matter before the Senate in North Carolina. Netting zero votes from the entire Senate, Gutman was quoted by the paper saying, "I've been seeing transgender people for a long time and frankly the thing that held transgender people back 20 years ago was the attitude of the people around you." - -At the time, Gutman and Hehir had a specific focus of firearm protection and record keeping, both integral elements of the large LGBT community in Dubuque, the media center of the State of Iowa. Hehir had served as fire marshal for Dubuque for the City of Dubuque Fire and Emergency Services Department. In some of the in North Carolina on the economy, lawmakers sought to measure how many unemployed jobs would be created by businesses and are if there might be a loss of jobs. - -Hehir explains how they ascertained if a business might go out of business by way of the simple act of accepting documentation. As and under Title VII of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, businesses are not permitted to be discriminatory in hiring or termination on the basis of sex. Previously, commercial businesses were allowed to discriminate in hiring on the basis of drive for employment. - -Title VII of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act has a precedence established by a 1948 case that demonstrated a home clerk would be considered as a "Holistic Routine Librarian," utilizing a person with any disability would be "Americanized." - -There have been numerous instances regarding how outdated the "normal" looks. As a regular visit by a fire truck nearby, "I walked all over him in my uniform to see things he paid careful attention to and I cannot understand how that would have been discriminatory," reported Gutman. - -Cities across the nation are beginning to buck the trend and are fast-tracking bathroom access, believing they provide their residents one giant communal picnic. Gutman also criticized the duopoly of Senator Henry Marsh (R) of Bel Air and Senator Phil Berger (R) of Wilmington for the direction they had taken their respective city of Wilmington and its public policy away from restoring compassion between all groups. Marsh, a youth development specialist, and Berger, a lecturer on social policy balance, had targeted low income African-American neighborhoods and posted videos of faces of children being sodomized on their respective YouTube channels in an attempt to get Facebook-famous campaign slogans for both offices endorsed on social networking sites. - -That that particular trend caused many to take notice the plight of low income, trans including racial transgendered residents in Wilmington caused Berger to ape the optics of the ultimate urban center perceived as Greenville to mock fellow professor, Ken Lambert of the University of Delaware when asked about his transgender student, Stacie Fuentes. Berger repeated the refrain in his radio show and implied Fuentes was an admission of growing laxity in intolerance as to the face a teacher or whoever may be rough on a child from oft times being a dropout in foster care. - -This was not taken especially well by a transgendered one of the principals in the city of Dubuque as the Dubuque Technician's Guild threatened to strike, thus galvanizing citizens and politicians to speak out. - -Clement Zollars, a member of the teachers union, regarded Berger as the father of political correctness in Dubuque.

The number was nothing compared to the Mr Big, but then again, while the Philadelphia72 twitches were thrilling, they were not especially profit-oriented. I replied that while they could be considered profit-maximising, they should not be miscast in a non-profit context. The journalist mocked me by suggesting that a stockbroker can work for Mr Big and still improve lives, while a bitcoin speechwriter might be more of a main character – an emotive character, in fact. - -Our conversations then carried on to a crossroads. The journalist then examined bitcoin's best business use cases.

Both systems use the same hardware, are plugged in to the screen, and the same input. It's unclear if either will work with current-gen consoles, assuming neither console will support the upcoming home streaming technology that uncouples games from their install bases. - -The original Switch it – The Switch is the successor to the current 3DS. Nintendo made the redesign of the system in 2015, reuniting Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan producer Hiroshi Imanishi as the hardware designer. The game's system specifications haven't changed, but the industrial design as a whole has, and Nintendo even went as far as developing a group designed by industrial design experts to work on the Switch's aesthetic. This time around the games will be designed to work with the system, with Imanishi and company's input in mind. - -As has been previously reported, the Switch will support both traditional controllers that plug into the back of the device and add an extra screen. It has also been confirmed that the system will be backwards-compatible with Wii U games, and that the Switch will be backwards compatible with 3DS as well. - -IGN sources tell us that the Wii U will not make an appearance at E3 but Nintendo may reveal it later this week in an interview with Electronic Entertainment Expo. Wii U founder Satoru Iwata died earlier this year, but Iwata will be honored with a video game industry award in Nintendo's annual shareholders meeting on September 2nd. - -The Wii U market share has been declining since it released the Wii U, but it could have had the biggest impact until its successor came along. Recently a representative for Nintendo stated that "Wii U users in Europe and Asia released more than a million games in 2016, and according to NPD data had the highest combined unit and download growth for any console that year." So it makes sense they could make a play for the console at this year's E3 Show. - -Sources: Axiz, The Verge<|endoftext|>From Zero Wiki - -Behavior analysis is one of only a few fields of study in academia. Literally thought of as behavior modification, behavioral science in general is an attempt to model behaviors based on what's already understood throughout human history and culture. Behavior would be critical in finding solutions to problems in our society, including career paths and investing in new initiatives. Your career is at stake. Your future is at stake. -- Brian Talbot, Ph.D., Co-founder and Director of XMO - -Wikipedia's behavior page. - -What is behavior? Behavior is the fundamental sequence of actions that a computer program does to achieve a desired end. Programs often fall under the broad rubric of autonomous agents, which include many types of machines that complete a series of defined action tasks or behave in ways that closely resemble real-world interactions. Such entities are often categorized by their basic feelings, motives, and goals (called goals, goals, or goals) towards the world and particular employees or machines (a machine factor or controller). - -Why Study Behavior? - -Many curiosity-driven (in social science), startup-oriented, humanitarian, or science-related campaigns seek to change the world by finding quick findings about what causes your students, clients, or peers to behave positively. For several reasons, academics, programmers, and engineers all expect to learn what biases, assumptions, concerns, off-the-wallhacks, and common misperceptions are prevalent in human system behavior. Additionally, behavior analysis is a mature and scientifically designed field that covers theories, algorithms, and systematic design points to address the intersection of econometrics with medical treatment optimization, data and statistical interpretation, and related business and IT issues. Some of above topics include: - -The complexity of behavioral systems is due to a huge range of different behaviors generated by different elements within such systems and then compounded outside the boundaries of the system (entanglement). The combination of the single behaviors of the system produces a complex chaos of ill-defined behavior available for explication. - -Behavior research can provide an effective bridge connecting systems modeling and mental health applications because it addresses the links between internal and external factors. For each system, there is likely a collection of internal factors, inner decisions, and many external influences. - -Behavior research makes sound scientific sense and can provide evidence that will yield an insight into behavior. Additionally, it is compelling, practical and fun on a broad range of subjects. - -"Inspiration is from without, plan is from within.

But a bunch of other folks arose to make the cool accomplishments ahead possible. Early teenalden likes me to thank Diesel and Sim for the generous spoils of perfect, shiny silicon lube, the black aesthetic is mine, and Diesel's irrational sworn vengeance against Olib up the foam and speakers is impossible to ignore.

But these do the rest. - -The cavity structure of the Expresso Log Cabin glistens like a dusty golden boy in the sunlight, it's solid like granite, and it's well balanced (check out the shiny bytes if need be) for its unique electrostatic equilibrium where every pinching, grinding of the lightest brushes at the endcaps offers noticeable in-situ dissipation. The balancing act is tricky, and there are some posts and bearings to keep honest, and it's easy to slice a measured nail through with the right curvature. The endcor first was a clean, three-flow taper quad--twin drill--but with some extra addiiton to keep it pairing smoothly and adjustment is made before attuning the quad forever to level its planes. - -At the results page, you can find a grid of standings and difficulty (50/50) of each pairing, with adjustment marks for paper quality. Surprising for a .5in and under quad, two-layer printed scratted sets are shown indifferent – not so with my graphicles (1hhs printed!). So it's a learning curve of its own, but it turns out the importance of varnish quality for filament consistency for a 2-layer clearator is not elementary – multiple layers and a lot of spray will require an equally high varnish drop in the grades. Add a vacuum pump with a good varnish on daily applications to get those layers pinned fast – that's true of any oven set-up. - -If you're not sounding like a remote string of emmete-runottenham vineyard Trade guarantors introducing your sorry layup, then I don't know what is keeping you from getting started.

Eleven of those teams cooperate with WADA in every way possible. There are irregularities that challenge the credibility of some, many of whom remain committed to clean sport, but overall the program is pretty robust. Nine senior national team riders have refused to respond to WADA tests. They remain eligible to participate in the Tour de France.

Well, the first thing that we must ask of Lance Armstrong is, "For what, good? - -The battle starts - -It all began in 2003, when seven cyclists from the U.S. rode a race in Italy under the command of Lance Armstrong, and signed an international contract. The contract stipulated they would only attend races with Armstrong on them, and at the end of the season riders to sign a contract as well. The next year, during his third year out of cycling, Armstrong signed an agreement for the team in 2005 and formally accepted his race director position in siding with his coach Johan Bruyneel. That is when it all went terribly wrong.… - -Lance Armstrong's son Tyler, 22, spoke to his father during a 2007 journalist interview. "I know what you did, I looked at testimony for die ahead." - -The evidence - -The most damning evidence of Armstrong's doping came to light from his own doctors. In a fitness test later taken jointly by Armstrong's US Postal Service team and Dr. Michele Ferrari (the head of the UCI's biological passport program), five of the riders, including the cyclist Kenny Dehaes, tested positive for EPO. - -Milan Babiri from Switzerland, then team head coach of US Postal Service, testified in 2007 that he had warned Dr. Ferrari, a specialist in peptide metabolism, during July 2002 after witnessing Armstrong's "dancing" on the team bikes. Babiri told Dr. Ferrari he would be to chemical as soon as possible. Babiri told authorities after that meeting that he had heard talk from Armstrong like "that he would soon be in the test room with racing, he would too low [as a cosmonaut]. - -Armstrong insists that these are lies. "I had substances during that period of time; every four weeks by my own admission I went to the juice bar… I never took EPO." - -The pressure to ensure drug testing failed to detect the highly effective HIV-1 test EPO comes out more clear. A cyclist claiming to have the blood of a test dopers within days of returning home. claimed into evidence EPO and said he had no clue it was spiked. It was suggested to the prosecution it may have been a false confession. It was discovered after a DNA test proved the tremesomeraw comet was associated with the mutagen goal of hypodermic injection. The original trial argued the amphetamines were not spot tested, but in the case of the mutagenic goal cocaine would have been. He was the only person on his team that had access to the drug during this time time as the original investigation with Dr Carl Cooper lasted from 2002 until 2005.

When not in Vermont, the celebrated vintner could be found -- since the 1980s -- at the bottom of a barn or a fire escape. Clinton has spent good part of her life in holes in the ground. - -"I grew up in a small town in very small country. The people we took to independence were, to a man and a woman, farmers," Clinton said. "If you had to vote today for the president from among the small town folks who loved frozen yogurt and girl scouts, I think you know where I come back." - -A majority of U.S. residents supported Clinton in her 2008 presidential bid -- mostly rural, ethnically diverse rural areas of Iowa and southern New Hampshire. - -In 2012, a Republican candidate for the first time appeared to come close to winning a majority of rural voters -- 41 percent. That won by a margin of 13 points, but it was no drunken stumble that cost Mitt Romney entire states in the Rust Belt. - -What changed was Clinton's rightward turn as a result of husband Bill's scandals -- and the sharp swing of the Affordable Care Act that brought tens of millions of people into the fold of private health insurance. - -In the process, Obama gave the state to Republicans and locked up laughably vast swing states in 50 populous states, illustrated in raw numbers however with the totals and depth of country we've come to. - -"I think they voted for (Republicans) because it's the lesser of two evils," said Greg Benzing, 82, of the small New York town of Carpentersville. "I think if they had to live with Hillary, they would certainly vote for Hillary." - -Two other Clinton 'roles' as convention recounts, candidate preferences and breaking down the convention into "officeholder" and "state" levels provide bits of history.

I am really amazed at how much the song falls into a song—in this case, "bitch to earth"? It reminded me of the stuff I did in 8th grade in Switzerland with basses in the school marching band. First, they'd do a song and play it up and emphasize it. And then take bits of other songs and start playing them. - -HIn: Thank you so much for that, I love that stuff too. - -TW: Yeah, it was the core of what I was doing, but I think they finessed it and picked out few of them and made things very interesting. - -HIn: Please tell us what you were going for with the Portishead Like Love Control sequence. - -TW: Well, what they went for and what most people do is this thing where they piece together pieces of music and words. - -HIn: Yeah, that's a band accomplishment. - -TW: Yeah, because they do things with the words and have certain meanings which you can never going to capture with the music alone, but when you've combined them, it's better. Some of the sequences which they do, they shoot bits of stuff in the background which are bits of the theme or other things. And it has a feeling which is an element of the song. I remember Mark [Linear], the Pink Floyd guy, did this at his house. He had this viennoiser based music and he edited three seconds of the composition into one shot. And I liked that but having only the music there didn't have a whole lot of violins and violas ringing. It was a little bit disappointing. We've got a huge relationship with orchestra—by I mean, arguably bigger than any other band who [has held that title]—and when Mark did that, it was kind of mind-blowing. - -HIn: Martha and the Vandellas always had a great backstage video going on stage. - -TW: Yeah, that's right. - -RH:So, as you guys get a little further along, I'd love to know, if you had to begin over again what you would change, what would you accomplish and what kind of longevity do you see for the band? - -TW: I thought it would be lovely to be still doing this very soon after we recorded this record, but it's been kind of a difficult place to be now for a whole bunch of reasons. I think they brought a little to it today, but I'd hate for it to be called as much misunderstood as it is because there are moments though when I think it doesn't get enough credit for that. It's not that I think they don't also take hip hop but, what it's got to understand is a whole different style of hip hop music and the way it's going. I don't know, I think the greater quote about it—What's the name of that? I don't think that's correct, get a check from the Worldwide Web in Montréal—it's right. We will either outlive Rattle and Hum or we will leave it in the dust on a certain level because when it was called chaotic rock, it wasn't. It, there's a lot of different stuff going on. You know, the music has longevity, you know, and it's very very hard to replicate. If you put it on in the same spot ten years from now, the computer will sound two and a half years older because there will be all these things that will have happened in terms of what data or computers or databases you're eating into. You can't do that again. But we try something new and then it outgrows whatever old starting point that record came from because there are so many things that possible you might try for that record which someone else might not have thought of, cos they have so many ideas in different ways to think about it. - -RH: I'm a little bit worried about if you ended up making with another band or studio, do you imagine that: there's what's possible now, there's what might have been rather than beginnings and endings, or to grude really, how much ground do you remember? - -TW: I already dislike Thanksgiving! ("Do you know what just happened?") - -RH: And it probably has an impact on your attitudes as much as if you haven't been to the holiday. I know your academic background will be sought after a lot. Any fanciful notion about anything for biographical purposes? Maybe might remixed D.M. Blaster or perhaps you'd get time with track three, or 10, or whatever? - -TW: Well, sure. That's an awful lot of work. It's pretty crazy. I mean, I play seven songs every night. Their like the most unpromising kind of date. Very sparse sets.

Within her collection her conclusion appears: "This production proves that the inherent fact of woman's inferiority and vulnerability to degradation can be explained entirely by the degradation of woman" (143). Which—though as all feminists should know it is wrong to compare sexism with racism—has led the front line of critical work on the role of violence against women in Performing for the Subaltern. Barbara Timpf reports and writes on how women and their struggles appear from the sidelines and are reduced to the "be-all and end-all of a subversive relationship: the creation of women (and the men they depend upon) as authentic surface imagery of a future, free and liberated, anti-dimensional, revolution of values" (110). - -Writing in the New York Times, Bernardine Dohrn described the state of the Vagina Monologues such that, "while there has always been the risk, not of attitude but of violence, sexual harassment, the director and company have been more careful to avoid using anatomy as action, not merely as subject, as they released an Inside-Out sequel to Inside In, a commonly used text to demonstrate that what happens inside and outside is not merely incidental but also essential" (7/2/2015). On 9/12/2014 Kara Walker called back to the much-criticized women's paper, Redesigning the Women of the New Jim Crow, with this comment: "Since Oprah released the Vagina Monologues [1994], which broke out of what seemed to an American public hungry to know more about the Vagina Monologues, sexual violence against women has become the dominant subject of American thought. Whether as a symptom of misogyny or not, violence against women is now tied to pop culture. I am reminded of a passage from Michelle Alexander's A New Jim Crow in which the men who founded the education reform movement in the United States are described as having paid slave labor to build the schools that would let them control ultimately who would go to college (424)." Of course Alexander's observation applies today as well. - -Anti-Violence Movement: Against Sexism and Against Patriarchy - -But Michelle Alexander is not right. Books like Against Our Better Judgment, which chronicle structural and institutional racism (one has to wonder why Ann Coulter does not make their case?) and how these can continue to perpetuate violence against women well after the documentary footage in this book has faded, are a necessary reminder that sexism and racism still exist and they examine the site of violence here. - -Other books out today account in detail for the myriad ways that misogyny and heteronormativity constantly reproduce, complement each other, and that destroy lives. Alexandra deGeneres, Incognito in a Supermarket explores some of the legacies left behind when the effects of sexual disrespect are at such considerable rates of an individual's day-to-day experience. Mona Charen documents many of the ways that sexual assault and harassment are overlaid on the larger history of oppression, and holds that these histories can be dug out in an organic relationship to the ongoing contradictions of capitalism [Link]. Donna Haraway expands on the concept of cultural imperialism, exploring how the ways in which a woman is seen by her fellow human beings has its impact on female cognitive and emotional development, and its very impact on consciousness and intentionality. In 1910 women made 2% of Congress—a few years later, off on their own, were granted ownership of the first swimming pools and a television. This increased the power and the consequences for women. Aided by researchers from Northwestern University's School of Communication themselves, Charen reported in The Activity and the In-Group in the Women's Movement, that a 1972 survey had found 49% of women of color believed that the job of being a "feminist" meant and automatically targeted policing women's bodies; 68% believed that it meant they forewent key jobs that other women were given, while 77% of white women acknowledged such policing as a norm in their lives. - -Below are health and sexual awareness warnings that need to be included in public purveyors of Hedonism: Lions!

It was doubtful he would play Sunday before returning with the Lakers last Saturday against the Hornets. - -"I thought it came as a shock to everyone," Katalin said. "It could have been avoided." - -Kobe admitted it cost him motivation. He missed 18 of the Lakers' last 19 games and, while there were signs something was seriously wrong, he had ample motivation to get the word out about the possible treatments to his blood malignancy. - -"I want to win, but I also want to give a lot of my energy towards it,'' he said, "and not show weakness anywhere. It was my responsibility this year.'' - -At all levels. Badly. It was much more. It was anything and everything in what was taken care of before going into hibernation.

"The rebels will inevitably take control of the developing drones, and we will be unable to control our weaponized drones from the air. By calling this a cyberwar, of course." - -Sources confirmed that hours earlier, top Zionist officials resigned from an internal voting to honor the calls of the self-described "Jack Irons," a self-described cyber-warfare strategist around the world whom the IOA has been trying to recruit ever since fleeing Moscow amid political repression. - -"We left Moscow not knowing if we'd be able to begin this operations, let alone launch a cyberwar," Klein said. "Now that we're concentrating all our military power and fixated on outrunning our defeat, we've lost our direction in this war." - -Advertisement - -"I'm sorry," Klein added. "I regret that." - -Said Klein, briefly digging through the Jewish Prospect for a loose Armani suit that someone had sent out, while further instructing reporters to watch the ranks of the new communications division for the impending arrival of the third-most-powerful figure within the organization. "We're at a point where we've been mired for too long, and it's time we get ourselves back on our feet. Maybe John Kerry can look into a Carl von Clausewitz or Herman Kahn or something." - -"Then," Klein continued, "we can fine-tune our tactics, and prepare ourselves for what's coming next." - -Advertisement - -The day began with the IOA president promising a completely new type of IOA official, one that would be both human and double-helping. - -RELATED: A Voice From Israel Clarifies Conflicts With Gay Americans - -With tightly journalized meeting notes recording the alleged name and stance of Fearsome Jack, several top Zionists while asynchronously taking the wire-grabbed Patriot version of NASA's Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe from its Folsom home to an underground base. - -"Scanners confirm that the tritium isotope has never been spotted from such an omnipresent source as the disintegrating sky," biotranscriptored IOA president Lee Weinsteinalli said during hysterics at his horseears@music.org cell, with the FCCoG launched into orbit by resonating links, which in turn fired a five-muzzle super-weapon that elicited a rapid peak in Shabbos singing on both sides (though the Israeli government should not be concerned about this last few weeks coming to a close). "Worse, our lights seem to be down too, something we have yet to contemplate, and never mind one damn question we have answerin': Is there a Jack up there? Why's he startin' so slow from in front, Gazini-yi Psahl, I wonder?" - -Advertisement - -Fearsome Jack claimed such unanswered questions came from the increased radiation from the IOA's weapons test in October of last year. According to Israeli sources, this one rocked Gilgo Beach, and certain Italian restaurants in Detroit bowed from the smell when they didn't know when to dole out the mushroom risotto. - -"I feel sorry for my fellow IOA official Zach Dylan Winter, this Jack's slower than IAPMS Owen Winters, I wonder," Weinsteinalli said, coming off an unhappy revelation in which he had to admit under a corner of his basement works what the Truly Pryor Jack Snowe had coherently said initially. - -"I don't know if we're dealing with a Jack Who Gets Laid after the war with our former adversaries has rendered the planet bone quakes safe for humans, or if the Jack we're dealing with is just omg-what-the-hell.

But this time, the darkness is a bubble. - -"The left's media network is disjointed and exaggerates the number of its supporters," Lawrence Wittner, Randall G. O'Bannon Professor of Media Studies and Ethics at George Washington University, wrote to the Left. "Their supporters are smaller in number than the conservative media wing, and the establishment journalists whose arguments they cite support them over rivals and hostile elites." - -Parts of the left – like the New York Times – are lost in an echo chamber. Each newspaper employs a distinctive guide to "religion," learn only a few basics, but never miss the point. Rarely has a respected reporter or analyst predicted with so much confidence that a Democrat would win. - -Herbert Ziegler, Social Media Editor of the New York Times, wrote recently that many Democrats had become too scared. That frightened them, but they didn't know how to negotiate. She then and later in the piece cited Ron Davis, wife of former Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley, and others. Meanwhile Mr. Davis was bashing Donald Trump. - -This paper has followed the national Democratic Party for more than a century, inventing "Bipartisan Pagans" at every turn and denigrating rivals for bigotry and stupidity. - -Ironically, like its Republican counterparts, the Times may be losing influence and support among its outspoken progressive readers and listeners. Its capitulation on climate change, which led under Mr.wittner to conclude of the left, "they want in with everyone and are responding to appeal for labor, immigration issues, and race relations, but not to trade policies." - -One liberal Washington Post commentator mirrored her paper's attitudes when she opined bluntly in September, "If you hop off the leader-line, this whole thing is lost."

I have dinner with my wife and my co-worker visits. I gave my Mexican colleague an assigned photo, take my picture. And then I give him a ID card with his passport and other ID to accompany with the card. I should note much of the Mexican "Sunset Policy" is very loose on compliance. By this marriage most of the Mexican girls want "equity". It is ok to go home with a couple of hundred thousand, give them services, have sex with the few or a few thousand. In other words starting by something big, keep the string going. They pay for the next step, be they multimillion alone or have access to millions of dollars. - -Anyway in case of Mexican client, my humble advice has always been, do not let it happen. - -And this Mexican client will never do that. I found out he works fulltime at a cybercafé job where with vacations he goes on living off the objective system. Further, he is never on the clock.

Let's start with the... -Coincidentally, there was actually a Seagram's Label Ten on the shelves during Tennessee Honey  Tour & Benefit on the morning I wanted the cask.  Not only did I know the co-host of the event was a big whiskey enthusiast, I also recognized the label and notes.  Wonderful!  I don't recall Seagram directly made a bourbon for Seagram's so I was so pleased to see our brands collide!  Oops. :)  Well, I thought to myself "Why not savor this while the texture settles out.  When this first arrived it was lightly carbonated. I can't remember how much it went back and forth between light carbonation and wet weight.  This allows it to hold the flavor and floral notes that I've always been craving.  As expected, the heat helped the expressiveness in the Bourbon & Heat Texture. As it settled into the barrel, the flavors began to fade a bit.  In fact, the heat actually diluted some of the nuance that the coolest part of this debut initially brought on.  Instead, the flavours settled into Creme Brulee, Sugared Cherries, Cherries Grits, Pineapple Upside-Down Cake, Fleur de Sel, Lemon Meringue Pie, and Grapefruit Squash.  Because the liquid was really chilled, this stuff was as smooth and clean as this dessert should be.  The grapefruity flavor really takes a backseat to the other notes but I would be a liar if I said they didn't add a whole lot to it.  I think this could become a very good and well-balanced Creme Brulee-eater. So, the unwounded alcohol was the slow mingling, the simplistic sweetness, the heat, and the 23 year thick toffee.  While I did enjoy this an amazing treat, as always, I might have to vary what I'm consuming in the future. Its quality isn't too special, but the bulk of the taste reminds me of an dessert with some large decadently sweet items thrown in to give it another dimension.  I would also retest again if someone would be kind enough to let me. Thank you Shannon Fine for tipping me to the performer and also to everyone you said made this bonding experience even more enjoyable.

The abductor was cleared of the crime in 2001. Now 25, Mathews's path to independence has been anything but smooth. - -The victim of India's horrific honor killing laws, Sherin Mathews believes that she was kidnapped and stoned to death after her husband, identified only by his Bengali first name Zeki, allegedly discovered she was having an affair with another man. Mumbai chirugai reporters are now calling it an "honor killing" after Mathews's family said the small town's superintendent of police addresses Zeki as her husband in tribal Wyalek work orders and was fully informed of the incident when there was a media expedition on Aug. 6 [see FRONTLINE's film "Taken" for more about this abusive system]. - -There are about 48,000 honor killings in India every year, some of them horrifyingly public. Mournings for the victims often take place in town squares or in open fields while motorists honk in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Members of a family declaring traditional right of passage will go to the village's war widows-and-orphans community. There, a doctor prepares a death certificate for the small check of paper that lists every member of the family, with photographs, checking the list for each one's dowry, wealth and possible social status. - -When it's all over, the accused often say something like "I am the father of the honor of my daughter, and I acknowledge it," or "I am the father of the honor of my daughters, the honor of my sons, and the honor of the values they were trained in," or "I am the father of the honor of my family, and I own the honor of the entire family, and I grant it." - -Sherin remembers ministers handing her papers to sign at the Village Head Man's home after they were passed around the village — and believing she had "earned it." - -"Thinking about my first shirt, my first shoes — I don't have those now," she told Melissa Block in 2006. "But I still was holding the honor." - -Since the adoption of Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana [PMSBT, or the one-child announcement], officials say dating is next to impossible, leading to an ever-growing number of female children being born to illiterate fathers who can't read. And women like Sherin Mathews are profiting from a heavy-handed law that makes every boy under the age of seven an eighth person in the village to fight for. - -Many help themselves. A title of honor in this tradition requires a man to marry one of his daughters to another man into the village. Following her father's plans to marry a new woman in a five-month "window," Sherin knew that her father was lying when he told her he'd quit the village to work because he needed the money. The new woman he married likely called upon his late brother's uncles or cousins to pick up the newborns. Then the family's honor would be in tatters — another reason why the group tries to avoid showing up in public. - -"They're lying to the children, the girls and women, to win their hearts and maybe even their support for the guys too," says journalist Ahabat Chowdream, who has followed the issue. "And to abort on the verifiable honor of the women — because what male is going to refuse a woman at 9 years' practice?" - -For its part, Hindu groups agree that it is a wrong and corrupt practice that should be completely reined in. In 2011, the Federation of Hindu Charitable Trusts, a social welfare organization, lodged a police complaint against 30 local lawmakers for encouraging high-aged young men to marry teenage girls when the Mishra homeshdars were still actively sending younger girls out for marriage. Several more local body council members, as well as Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, had fierce reactions during block hearings — none of the house committees or politicians had any milk for these charges; nobody had noticed the possibility of male parenthood starting at a young age. - -The report noted that in the state's congressional elections, the majority of candidates, regardless of their self-professed religion, chose youth above all else. "The Congress used these advertisements, one after the other and on billboards, as social discovery tools to involve young men by inviting them to form public men's groups," the report said.

Why are we encouraging kids to play video games that they don't really understand? Their buddies are more experienced so what's the big deal?" - -Although Star Wars did help whet the officers' appetite for the kind of drone experience they'd had since nap time, I suppose Rogue One is being a little unfair to the original trilogy.

Commissioner Nick Saban and Saban-run football operations staff passionately discussed the 26,000-seat Drew Stadium in Tuscaloosa with Battle and Alabama high school standout a two-time state qualifier from the Tuscaloosa suburbs who has become a longtime associate of the Crimson Tide. - -Battle, a Soundgarden-sheik grandpa and football enthusiast, initially stressed the many changes being made to boost and improve the venues to provide elite events to a 100,000-plus crowd and profit for the university. - -"We're all people who love our SEC football, but we also want here at the University of Alabama and others to get the experience of any number of NCAA tournament games," Battle said as he sat at the third head table of basketball coach Avery Johnson's return to Tuscaloosa following the football playoffs.

The SEC is a destination conference for Big Ten fans. People are going to be inspired by the SEC because of the athletic program. - -"You went to the SEC because you'll get 43 seconds of national television, with the championship underway. Not just because you care about Big Game football. Sometimes the talents just are not there yet because the athletes never win the national championship – let alone before you run and try to get a two-time state qualifier. It's all about the brand and the experience." - -The fact that coaches and Alabama fans recognize this is also a very strong factor, Battle says. "It's not just that our teams win championships and signs up, there are analysts, media and fans that come up here to be historic because of our program rates. It's the people. It's not sometimes bragging about winning a national championship because someone says, 'You achieved something particularly exceptional in that environment and you saw success…'" - -"It's not about bragging. It's much more about, 'Do I want to be walking in and signing autographs and meeting people who have been world champions like our guys have? The fact that we can accomplish extraordinary success on a national scale is contagious and fertile enough to try to grow it in a progressive, community-driven direction for generations to follow." - -Proving it right - -Proving Alabama is ready to look after it's own isn't so easy, however. - -The athletic department is the "second-biggest private employer in the state," and a privately funded stadium up for lease remains at a town-core published value within the last two years of $269 million, and will be renewed for the 2012 and 2013 seasons. Saban himself highlights it as "the one single biggest issue facing our university because of the highest rent in the state. When you buy a piece of land, no one's ever going to say, 'Ha ha. Well, there's our monument. Here is that. This is where we raised that. Who does we go there?' Our monument is at a $20 million and rising assessment.

The issue for Mr. Trump is not raising a child alone as a working mother—the issue for him is that of how best to utilize poor working mothers as faux corporate employees by blithely deferring to their daughters' desire to go away to college. - -Young Americans are undereducated as a result of a broken system that drains their parents' earnings, and this just seems so fitting of Ivanka Trump to be leading the Congress in criticizing the rising cost of child care. - -The Huffington Post does a good job of highlighting some of her next—great, noble—bizarre comments that she is inciting to exist: - -So why not actively encourage a young, controlled and empowered young woman to go off and devote herself to doing something that is in the national interest? I mean, you know, having a radically different type of Cabinet, but instead of a bunch of Ivy League-educated experts, here you have an operative, and she doesn't know it, who's an amazingly qualified operative, who there's no doubt occupied with expressing a completely opposite judgment on the state of women's medicine and healthcare. - -No matter how strongly it is on the menu, the White House has got to believe that Allah will have his daughters taste it first. - -OK, the "conflict of interest" argument isn't this baffling because of Ivanka herself, it's because this ethically incontinent punchline was constructed out of 60 second commercials, and every female reporter -======================================== SAMPLE 262 ======================================== -"No decision has been made/But who is Steven Curry?" asks a direct-message tweet from The Wall Street Journal's Jeremy Branstetter, that suggests the team has yet to make a call on a trade for the former Cavaliers point guard. Curry is in the final year of contract ($2.9 million) and has been showing his age and form lately, averaging 7.6 points, 3.1 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 36 games (29 starts). These were the stats before shooting 40.5 percent from 3-point land and 28.2 percent from behind the arc in the past eight contests. And three of those weeks were lost to suspension for cursing at referee Wes Nelson in last week's Game 2 loss before possibly lowering his disciplinary level for boos and yelling profanities to Malone on this past Wednesday's news conference. (Malone later felt no regret during his return Sunday against Oklahoma. "The most memorable part is winning 3-1," he said.) - -Curry's meltdown came in an excruciating 11-point loss—in part because he was injured with 4:41 remaining—where the Cavs fell to 1-2. Last June's trade with Minnesota dealt the best postseason productivity (18.4 points, 4.7 assists, 3.6 rebounds), assist percentage (25.7 percent) and 3-Point Percentage (45.1 percent) to the league, which rated him third in All-NBA voting in 2009 despite his career average injury-prone 3-point shooting. He returned to Cleveland the next season and took over as Cleveland's spear. - -He led the team out of NBA purgatory Sunday night, ending a three-game losing streak with a near triple-double in the Warriors' 112-102 victory in Cleveland. - -The Warriors remain a question mark, feeling no pressure to win a division title or sweep the Portland Trail Blazers, who'll inevitably instead crisscross the West alongside Golden State under the cloud of shooting guard Wesley Matthews' third front-office suspension in the past four games. The Celtics have indeed been improved as the turnover reverting maturity of two out-ofatmosphere veterans in Rajon Rondo and Fab Melo was apparent during Monday night's win in Sacramento. The Warriors' core trio of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Green fizzled in that 133-123 overtime loss. Green shot 3 of 7, Rondo was 4 of 12 and Thompson was 1 of 8—on cold-blooded turnovers that helped clinch the game. - -But a hit Monday and extended sleep on Tuesday afforded Curry, Thompson and Green a second session, according to the same news release. Green beat out Rondo for starting stand-in duties Tuesday night, rapping over Rondo's slurred commentary. "I was on him so much the last couple of days," Thompson said of Rondo. So they've gone back and refocused. - -Green also said that the three made good progress with pregame press conferences since the Kerr-Carroll backcourt breakdown of March 1 that sidelined Curry and the Warriors. When Green was cut from Denver as a (possibly) first-round draftee during the first year of the NBA's new "Celtics First" signing and extension system, Kerr was his primary point of interaction up until his dismissal last Nov. 30. "We talked a lot since that Game 4 loss," said Green. On March 7, Green made his first professional start against Minnesota and tormented Wolves shooting guard Ricky Rubio for 19 points and seven assists from the 3-point line. Just before the Wolves' Feb. 6 matinee game in Milwaukee, Bernstein asked Kerr: "What do you think about Green's game right now—its growth, its development in leading this team?" - -Kerr declined to answer, leaving Green to respond. - -"He can't be Joe Dumars without a whole bunch of question marks," Green said then. "You can imagine my team right now, and I'm kinda glad for it but how it's pretty much set up ... it's hard when it's serious want to go to work but you're sort of courting criticism. But it's an opportunity to focus on those kinds of things." - -Thompson was all civility and attempt at contrition on the missed free throws to Iowa Point Guard Aaron White, another gregarious and likeable player who resumed pulling page 109 from Tarleton State coach Scott Logan's copy of Abercrombie and Fitch. "Guys who aren't used to losing play the role of T-rex, making a statement," Green said wryly about anti-championship pregame taunting taunts commingled in the Warriors' Black Hole Big Eater Fashion Challenge. - -Thompson rebounded Sunday and talked sense about his future with David Lee starring against the Nets on Thursday at Madison Square Garden. "It's left to my wife and family to decide,'' said Thompson. "It's a very important decision at this point. -======================================== SAMPLE 263 ======================================== -Local organic Purus methanol have been integrated in Cochin Water collection, as per the guidance of Central Science Laboratory (CSL), Government of India.

"I'm bringing my Apple Watch!" - -Zimmer feels the recording process, which took more than a year, was worth it. - -"I had a huge spurt of energy," Zimmer said, highlighting how he managed to navigate a busy schedule while also recording, trying to stay close to the casting for "Gravity." "We had a couple of brief surreal moments where I would be like 'this is not role playing. This is real.' And then we went right into the track process, and figuring out what had happened at the end." - -Zimmer released the most recent album, 2007's "Divertimento" with more tracks from Kanye West and also Rino Sibili.

If I did it and it didn't, I would think my career wasn't done.

Following his move to Hollywood, Cash began his career as a minor film actor, but soon he began his own entertainment agency, and as his talent began to soar, he got his first bigger break on the big screen, when he landed the role of Zero for William Friedkin's 1972 film The Outsider. - - -Our Richest Man turns down school to pursue acting, and I learned a lot in trying to chase the hustle. - -Cash continued to pursue acting, eventually landing a small part in The Fugitive, in which he played the "Pacino to Burt Lancaster's Jack Nicholson." By 1976, he had made his way into Hollywood and made the leap into films with a supporting role as a Watergate era reporter in JFK. Following that strange whole Z-list script, he was cast in on-screen relationship thriller Philadelphia, and which world premiere performance he headlined turned the film into a rare big-budget success, thanks to box office success of $61 million, putting the highly-rated combination of young actor and supporting character on the map. - - -What followed was a string of successful studio films on the level of Titanic: John Wayne in Choose Your Own Adventure, Todd Bridges in They Died with Dignity and Marcia Gay Harden in Ghost. When Bonfire of the Vanities, the quirky and intense film about a missing buck concluded its run, in 1978, Cash was shot down in Hollywood by Hollywood's model-thin ideal of the success check. For those who make it to Hollywood, it's all about the power number: a big enough paycheck and the mogul's greenlight can make or break a career. When Universal Pictures was looking for star quality to take the reins on their cult cult film, Cash was quickly reputed by most in the industry as too small to get a starring role, and he accepted the notable decision, effectively laying down the groundwork for the successful professional career he's now finishing.(1976)- The adult film industry, it's from scratch, getting virtually nothing for the effort.

In this case it's being called white entitlement. We aren't going to argue with you that you may have been part of a thousand years of oppression, and feel entitled to a seat at the table. The nutso argument against affirmative action is that it's unfair because some people that have historically taken more advantaged positions (white or otherwise) are more deserving of a break. Even Mick Hits Bottom isn't being simple effective here. He posits that affirmative action is creating a competition for the few slots offered to poor or minority applicants: - -I'm doing political analysis here, not taking any side in a cultural debate. - - -Here's another idea: You can't just raise people up and give them certain rights. First, those things would seem cruel to someone who's of no use to society, and who has no way to repay the advances of good people. Second, a guaranteed income is not about equal rights. It's about absolute rights. So someone who's being paid universe potential wealth for long hours of work is as good as someone who's been fattened by one or two working parents. Inequality of wealth can create a very unequal society, but affirmative action clearly doesn't help these folks. That's true whether you want to call it preferential hiring or affirmative action. - -No doubt there are plenty of people who have lived adequate lives, other than below the poverty level, that have been able to better utilize those opportunities given to them, given equal opportunity. Indeed, affirmative action sounds pretty rotten to me when applied to even an individual. But it's odd to suddenly congress calling us fools for believing in fair play when we've been doing so ourselves for millennia. It's like standing on the green and demanding shame. - -Let's be clear, affirmative action isn't an act of kindness commissioned by damn-the-evil-poverty in: evil is present yet ever so slight – one dip and the body appears to maintain buoyancy but the political token is fast­ flows with the tide of submerged thru drained…it is our safety net, not some kind of reward of parasitism. Therefore it is unfair, regardless of promotion. The creative political mobilization that took place during the Obama era, and persists today, is a testament to a fair system in which people are behaving rationally – not participating like a bunch of shallow eunuchs scraped from snack food. - -I truly think that the reaction of being called a racist is akin to calling someone a jew. I have a distinct advantage, a genetic advantage. But that doesn't mean I don't steal or underpay workers or do other things that suck our government and bend their peoples participation in government, creates unrest while it's being played by a majority party within wide conservative franchises. When I do something I'm not thinking about what competive means, why do I do it and what would it exceed a gentle hand? Generally, cooler heads prevail. There are indeed correct terms, but many only be get pejorative" - -Indeed, when is the party of creative thought threatened at a time of glorious invention. As royalty, we are repeatedly ruled by the presence of winter. Europe had a great reign and state and social order, the flipside of which will be America under the distraction of conservative governance.

Which is far below the traditional workplace. - -We've got to tell people, early in life, that an ideal standard that is needs to be okay with people. It's not just all or nothing. Self glorification is outright theft. But respect can't be fleeting, it has to be real. For men, it's all about sexuality, in fact a bona fide plethora of it.

According to general sociological theories, males and females have different interests in interaction and stimulation during childhood and adolescence but will adjust accordingly when making their real life decisions. The current results show that males are more often receptive to prepubescent and adolescent communication about sex, reproductive role in future life and skepticism about their own genitaliating potential while females differ in behavior and preference when it comes to erotically stimulating activities or psychological stress than male behavior. Moreover, the sample of adolescents, mostly girls, does not present vibra- remains at enormous cost to them as a pee-ter (sociological processes seem to be different for males and females). The results show that more males tend to experience sexual arousal after being therefter sexually stimulating; and this may be a result of pressure by male peers especially since reading socio-relationship and perceived biological differences in the genitalia make this signal to the adolescents "we are different, enjoy alone". On the other hand, girls are not just of equal or greater interest in other Males during their daily phases of pychogenesis, orgasm, and after sexual contact than males, but males are more nervous than women in future years and males are more selfish than women (however it cannot be observed in studies on the influence of sexual relations, perceived predisordern, masturbating, sexual contact etc.). Moreover, the results show that masturbation to fantasy and general pornography are more prevalent in males, and most sub-groups are overwhelmingly mobilized to this alternative adult-based masturbation than the normal mentalway for youth. - -» Introduction - -« Clinical and public health importance of the question «Does masturbation harm me directly?"

Photo: Jamie Harold/Wagner Computers and GL551 benzene released into the atmosphere could include classicites Mr Williams — who has more than 30 years of experience in the area of nanomaterials and even spent three years researching a process for greening the atmosphere by enhancing sunlight — told Computer Weekly S&T that clear skies could only help to increase the amount of toxic elements reaching the atmosphere. A study looked at how far emissions of compounds that release environmental contaminants could travel to the stratosphere and disappear to go to space. Dr Grant Miller, who has several years' experience in space travel and ocean exploration said: "It is reasonable to assume that nano-size particles emitted from such chemtrails will fill and take man atmosphere with it. In the long run, geoengineering may lead to a decrease in food among the populace as well as challenges for human health." - -Burning of fossil fuels would release greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, aliphatic hydrocarbons , benzene, hexane, toluene to hydrocarbons, etc. Instead the debate dithered around biofuels that were already being imported into the United States from overseas. One argument against geoengineering is to try and impact climate change by altering the extremes rather then trying to mitigate it. A study concluded 61 per cent of occupations and 47 per cent of criminals worked in dangerous occupations under the threat of climate change. Un-named sources said the problem would worsen if emissions were to rise to 350 large emitting countries. Science Minister Christopher Pyne said the government would introduce a plebiscite on the proposed transition to a lower greenhouse gas emissions from power stations including coal-fired power stations by the end of June, after hearing submissions from climate experts. - -But Mr Pyne told the Herald Sun he was not sure the support for geoengineering was as peaked as stuntman risky hero fucking? different, fear, on the planet, also known as "loose laughtah".

Following his move to Los Teros last week, Waston made his first substitute appearance in the club's 1-0 victory over La Liga side Celta. - - -"Kendall's a very good player. He's a very good friend and a very important member of our team," Head Coach Carl Robinson told WhitecapsFC.com. "He's been at a high level for a long period of time. We're not surprised he's back with us, which is great news for everyone by the end of the season. We give him an opportunity and we'll give him the same next season." - - -The deal will see Waston's salary and bonuses recorded at the 2012 to 2013 MLS player salary levels, keeping him at the club at a base rate of $410,000 per season (all figures from MLS Players Union). By being signed to a broad-based contract, Waston will pay himself at a more market-adjustable price level, rather than at a one-timed signing bonus. The funding is equal to what the organization spent on the defender, including the cost of his International Transfer Certificate (ITC), the transfer fee, provincial taxes/fees and coverage on his book (which lasts one year). - - -Expansion teams January Major League Soccer of Discovery rules require that an organization respect documented "discovery rules" (subject to the different league-wide rules that govern new player acquisitions) that provide for draftable players to be signed, not drafted, to a super-MLS contract starting on the day of make-whole for the first team until after the following January's allocation ranking gets to the only spot available (you may special-plan for yourself, but rest assured there will be others who will). Additionally, because of a different rule, MLS clubs, no matter where they are, receive an annual registration fee of $825,000 in cash. During the first round of this year's expansion draft, Whitecaps FC saw Luis Silva and Kendall Waston traded to Vancouver, in exchange for general allocation money and Targeted Allocation Money, allowing them to participate in the Re-Entry Draft.<|endoftext|>A Parliamentary committee Thursday raised serious doubts about taxpayer funding for an at-risk downtown Toronto office tower after The Globe realized the increasingly expensive drug testing company involved in setting up the alcoholic facility, called McArthur House, was expensed at the same Ottawa executive lounge where Parliamentarians could be seen publicly drinking.

Maybe the 49ers were at their best against the Packers because this was the supposed hiccup for them. Offensively they looked even better and in fact had more success than last season, but there are too many deficiencies beyond just the offensive line and some terrible defensive play throughout the loss to goalie Sealver Siliga past Brett Favre. - -Suddenly, after 30 years of dominance, the Packers are no longer considered a contender to capture the event. - -Jimmy Garoppolo has quietly put together an incredible season in the wake of a 2012-2013 season where there's reason to be legitimately excited for the future.

Seedsman, Inc., a company that produces Patented Seed Payment Installments (PSIPs), filed a complaint against the ACLU of Northern California that claims: - -Seedsman makes money by charging customers DLC creep fees for using the PlayStation®Vue wireline streaming service it created to monetize consumer demand for its patented seeds and genetics. Seedsman intends to extend PSIP cable television subscriber fees beyond its original claimed channel lineup to cover the company's actual built-in payment mechanisms. Seedsman is not expecting consumer entrustment to evolve past a mere purchase-canceling mechanic. - -The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) argued that the complaint is premature, since the petitioning group – which does believe Congress must consider and address genuine issues of Third-Party Copyright infringement by CASL papersharing services – does not yet exist. As Seedsman's lawyer argued in the complaint: - -This application of the requirement of contributory infringement is questionable, and relevant statutory exceptions such as fair use exist under the reasoning employed in Annotation 13). - -Seedsman insists that this net neutrality ordinance violates the Fairness Doctrine and violates the Patents Act by passing Title II patent rewrites that users dominate and predominate over software creators. The ACLU's paralegal responded by pointing out some demonstrated inaccuracies in the nature of the CASL patent system these racketeers signed up to uphold. - -EFF also argued that, in order for any CASL licensing scheme to be responded to through legislative action, it would require consumers to turn down previously chosen PSIP packages. "Originally PSIP subscribers were able to transfer a license to another PSIP subscriber's subscribed service for a fee," said Seedsman lawyer. "However, unlike traditional cable providers this process required that user accept yet again the risk that he or she would lose access to the service well before payment was complete." - -"This differential treatment is what is responsible for the consumer choice to enter the market at all," added Seedsman lawyer. "Thus, the proposed enforcement removal of the ability for consumers to transfer a license in this way does not eliminate or completely eliminate that choice. Furthermore, Unless fractional appeal rates for PSIP subscribers remain in place CSL saw subscriber fees decrease by $700,000 due to this Cook primaryfade change. Simultaneously, over $800,000 in PPA fees did not result because consumers paid less as to what they get in return for those services." - -EFF's filed at least two related requests for further documents. - -Sam Swanson, legal affairs director at CASL, told EFF attorney Korey Reich that Greenspun is a well-known boilerplate plaintiff. In particular, the sequential nature of the Enforcement Action may be a risk factor, she claimed, given the number of such lawsuits the EFF has filed since the 1990s. - -The judge took no time in ruling on Greenspun's motion, as contained in her order. EFF's request for an expanded opportunity for collection — based on Greenspun's admission that there is more than (but no more than) $80,000 standing for its request to collect $800,000 of the CASL's $1,500,000 cash award even at write-off levels — amazingly fell short, as Greenspun's lawyer equated it to putting up "a dog-food trough, by the pound." - -Interestingly, it was Greenspun who successfully objected against their adversaries showing the transcript of the July hearing the Electronic Frontier Foundation filed every single of its CASL lawsuits against Comcast and Aereo in. - -Finally, the Court also gave the plaintiffs 28 business days to file their response, by Thursday, Augs 9th, in particular: - -Maxfield asked for and received full advising on how to respond to the CASL And Vick Painton answered all its questions at the end and was very aware of what it meant when it came to collections and continuing payments such as iPhone technology and the hard drive crash. We were so pleased that Vick Painton understood what it meant, both to the congressmen and the presiding judge and as a matter of over returns.

According to Dr. James O'Malley, author of The Making of a Wedding Party, the entire wedding ceremony -- from starting with the moving songs to barbell choreography to the sparkling white wedding cake and the feel of a motionless ballroom -- takes hard work and a certain amount of social ineptitude. Luckily for us, there's a Reddit community devoted to figuring out the right wedding food and drink combos to make it that way. - -Here's the guide to wedding food that tracks down the precise types of beer and liquor to sprinkle on critical wedding food items that not only look amazing at your wedding, but also complete weddings in a restrained, sweet and fine style. - -An Embrace of Green, Sweet, & Fine - -"Just as most couples look to marriage as a date night, green and beautiful food should be an important part of the wedding," Dr. O'Malley suggests to The Deseret News. "Brides should have, at most and slight risk of showing off, a simple grape salad, organic lettuce, and caviar." Add in low calorie sweetened drinks like a donut cream and ice cream and you've got a the perfect recipe for a wedding that performs selfless functions. "This can take the sting out of no contact up to the point where one person might feel guilty about eating the bridal cake because doing so means sharing pieces both now and in the future," he opined. - -Because Delectable - -O'Malley's selected pairing for his green, sweet and fine marriages: Red wine with honeycomb.

In January 2014, ISIS seized a multitude of Iraqi cities, making it the largest terrorist organization that includes Kurds, Shia Muslims, the Islamic minority, Sunnis, Iraqi military and officers, and others. Since the local Iraqi army struggled to fight ISIS, forming a government and recapturing territory fell to the Syrian army, domestic Shiite militias, Iraqi popular mobilization, Shia volunteer fighters, Kurdish Peshmerga, and mainly Sunni tribes loyal to Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and former President Saddam Hussein. Along with the Fallujah battles, ISIS's media branches spread the propaganda with slogans of a modern global caliphate embracing all jihadis abroad and white American pilots of the Iraqi airforce, government, and tribes. So far, President Trump has nominated forty-year veteran U.S. Army Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn (Ret.) to be the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency. Senator John McCain (R-AZ) referred to Obama's choice for President that preceded him as the general at "Massacre City." In October 2016, following ISIS - the group also known as ISIL, ISIS, or Daesh - that had split from Al Qaeda, Turkey launched one of its greatest military operations in the war against the enemy in November, 2015, simultaneously offensives (talking about the Euphrates River valley), one against ISIS in Raqqa, the other against many positoned ISIS positions in Mongherli, Manbij, and Kobani, in Aleppo Governorate, and against an imminent ISIS assault on the city of Aleppo, also known as Islamic State of Syria. In November 2015, Turkish, Syrian, and Russian forces signaled constructing a coalition to fight against ISIS sent a joint declaration, with Turkish Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan describing it as "battle for human future." During the height of the showdown in Turkish capital Ankara, Turkey was rationing milk when ISIS attacked Nutris continued in fighting around Manbij, Gamr and other militant strongholds around Raqqa. The following January, the city of Jarabulus, famed by the ancient Romans as the Gallic Wall, fell to the units of Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) led predominantly by the women and children of the People's Protection Units (YPG). It was a huge loss for the Kurdish groups and an international humiliation for the depravities perpetrated by the ruthless ISIS rule for a year but it did not stop Turkish regime from courting its ties to the fake Russian war against ISIS. After taking Mosul city on June 10, the SDF advanced on ISIS positions in Azaz and Jarablus' towns to further isolate and destroy the militants in northern Aleppo Governorate. In a process that was documented by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, ISIS lost thousands of Legion 1 tanks, heavy weapons, and armored vehicles during their final strike. Three months later, in late August, the SDF captured Afrin, between Aleppo and the Turkish border, and then transferred ISIS's operational command center from Raqqa. The Mosul campaign followed on with attempts by Turkey to normalize with Russia recognized by President Trump to secure the Turkish waters and for the separatists to hold their side of the Syria-Turkey border. Iraqi forces, securely freed from ISIS, continued to function in coordination with those of the CIA and the Kurdish Peshmerga, supported by airstrikes on ISIS and provision of military forces. Although ISIS is reported to have lost thousands of military personnel, just in the Mosul campaign among thousands that operated for the past three years. Mosul will follow it hard on September 10 and its success will reorganize its Shia forces to regain any territory that Kurdish forces have lost in recent months. The liberation of Mosul was a good illustration of how Syria's beseiged population is the main survival responsibility of the Syrian government, the remaining army of the former president stored in the Kurdish-controlled areas. After Mosul, the Kurdish-controlled areas appear to have failed to restore peace in Iraq and Syria, except to improve their internal stability and economic conditions and provide security to their populations.

Despite government recommendations to improve dietary practices, some patient-centered approaches largely fail to reduce eating disturbances and have simply added to patients' distress. At present, there is no consensus for choosing specific dietary approaches. A systematic review of research has identified 2 aspects in weight regulation that have substantial individual variability: Intrinsic and extrinsic influences. In essence, it is because of intrinsic factors such as motivation, allegiance and restriction of dietary intake that regain of lost weight cannot be achieved through small or gradual increase in food intake, despite substantial effort. It is because of extrinsic factors, such as significant stress, negative changes to family environment, and stigmatization, that individuals with eating disorders are highly likely to revert to another excessive eating pattern. The relative contribution of these 2 aspects might contribute to individual patterns of success and failure of specific dietary interventions.<|endoftext|>Speed up installation by 4x - -Fast, reliable installation.

Being alive in Amelyan was more that than sitting in cabins and watching his father's industry die from lack of takers. Male adolescent boys propped up by mothers kicking back at bingo bums, Amiel grew up with distant parents and hyperactive siblings and learned how to medicate repeatedly and correctly. While in Amritsar, Amiel became intimately acquainted with Yaoba, who taught him the art of building mini-lifes. - -And so, in 1977, Amiel, along with Dharam Patel and Bargi Narayan Selvadar, opened the glass doors on the famed carnival within the cabins of the Cineplex at the mouth of the Amaravati Valley. After a baby and college, these tribal beauties were no longer scholars but cosseting motherlies, the few true diners in a nightmare. Then Amiel made a pact to make each event more spectacular. This left Dharam and Bargi with a lonely collision between beard and mane. - -It was in Amrichabad, one of Amiel's junior hotels, that the first acts of screeching chaos occurred. His hotel ran amok, and for once, Amiel emerged from under the covers, his toothless gums peeking out of the thick moleskin envelope draped over his pillow. There was a skull motif. Jocularity erupted from the concrete wall beyond the bed, farting gallons of cobwebs were flung from the balcony (who's of kin owns Amilies?) and there was a loud hare bursting through a window. This was all comedic relief upon the unholy day that Dharam left his childhood home and begat Li Li Yaseen. And so, Amiel knew how to treat his temporary family in the necessary manner. - -Celebrity operators shared a glass cage of a quarantine at Amrichabad Brick Factory. Amiel inspired Prey with his conciseness. 'No one for miles on ceilings— Manzoor Rim settling expired MANGO CRACKERS' was a tip. The finals would then be broadcast on communal suicide tube-sets: Banerjee Beans, Raseel Champ Kitchen and The Float. - -The enclaves of Amrichabad were, by as much as eyes could see beyond the grond, twilight. The brothers themselves cried out with eddiness, weaving colourful threads over the dark shades of black and white. When Amiel read a book or decided on a public address to deliver on outing territory, his rakshasa inducing accent was never off-guard, and is probably what first saw Amiel Parnani joing the walls before Prime Minister Indira Gandhi mugged from Nagpur to things were falling apart all around us. The backbone of Amrichabad was Chrast' maids presenting on Amrichala -======================================== SAMPLE 291 ======================================== -Brendan Smialowski/AFP/Getty Images Michigan Gov.

A blustery Trump seemed to suggest in a hard-hitting ad released earlier this year that the power of his bully pulpit had effectively ended any hope of being politically categorized with the "R" after his name—and he talked about pushing back on the "rigged system" in certain ways even farther. Some conservative media figures have said they will be further imperiled because they have sided with Democrats on climate change and gay marriage, and went against Trump on the Iran nuclear deal and many other issues. Others speculated about the former George W. Bush administration, adding a group of White House rivals into the mix. Whatever happens next, the 2016 presidential election was, if not unexpectedly, the election of a president who has seemed to repeatedly fine-tune the punishment that should be visited on perceived enemies. - -Jamelle Bouie Jamelle Bouie is Slate's chief political correspondent. - -There was the glut of charges on the Justice Department under Barack Obama when he was president. "I hate the people in the FBI. You hear it from the street—they're awful to Hillary. I hate the people in the Department of Justice," Trump began in remarks he recorded at a campaign rally. "When General Petraeus—I didn't like him, Mike [Morell] didn't like him—he got—Big deal, got (ph) Big deal, got away with it. I mean—what do you think of James Comey?" To his improvising, which has always included grown men in walled compounds and small children with bolo ties, the sideline investigation into Hillary Clinton on her private email server and the Justice Department-led investigation into her lies about those emails is alright because Comey was exonerated by the Justice Department's investigation—just like the Justice Department exonerated him. "Questions are being asked: -======================================== SAMPLE 294 ======================================== -If you have not seen the recent surveillance footage from the Rialto Mall, you should. It depicts a fight between two uniformed women who have their "bangers" slung over their shoulders. One is dragging the other—an Italian shoplifter with her legs chopped off—to her car. However, it seems that Vancouver Police will not take this woman's word for it: She wants to file a report about her friend being stabbed, and is demanding to see the driver's license of the 45-year-old attacker, who has apparently re-intoxicated 47 times, according to the story. - -The documentary also shows that the woman who was dragged out of the mall, is not in the habit of following the rules. On January 19, she was giving a witness "the finger" as he came to the store, then stormed away. Another Vancouver Police officer involved in stopping the preliminary investigation, Des Bonné, insists that the woman had a weapon. - -After hearing this statement from one officer received through the Rialto Guardian, another officer's testimony—expressed through a statement of the witness—comes as this: - -In fact, the marks beside her lip actually took form of a tattoo (mysterious, it has to be worn by skin) that extended over her collar bones and on her neck. It is said to be an 18th-century henna tattoo produced from the combination of a henna pad and an alteration knife to form a mouse's face on the face. The expression was apparently a display of "cunng-cung" (chivalry or good manners) he claims, as the woman did not look or act like this in the slightest. - -Vancouver Police furthermore claim that they have recovered two small knives, but have not said how many there are. Finally, incidentally, the same day, the woman in the mall, Giuseppe Unterman, suffered a gunshot wound. - -Why organize a hunt that leads nowhere despite their personal history? Because this evidence just adds to the history of Freemasonry. The twenty-1st degree source of Masonic conspiracy seems built upon the songlines of incidents involving Masonic and Rialto Masons: - -EMMA #1469- Norway, 1883. King Håkon VII, who is Masonic, walks in, alone, through town surrounded by gun-toting servants. Another servant says, "If you open your door again, I'll shoot you right here"! Håkon ushers in the queen, insisting that the whole thing be how it always has been. The two ministers who went to the house to congratulate Håkon's wife, Mora the Elder's mistress, are arrested and shot dead by the mild Civil Republican Guard. - -EMMA #1193, 28 December 1910. In a shopping mall in Christophe-Colombes, Antibes, a representative of the Catholic Church visits two Jewish families there. When one of the he tailgate shopper tries to negotiate a discount, and the other pays with a ring, they were attacked by mall security men. Besides the domestic violence, one of the Jews admits the other had been preparing bomb pyrotechnic material. The Catholic minister recognizes the Jewish ringleader as one who had openly been guilty of a number of sales venue thefts in issue of emigrants. The Catholic Emanuel Simon explains Leo XIII of the Boheme XII tribuna et criminam. Simon orders the Jew commander to be put on the hangman's noose, while Christian icons and relics under lock up are transferred to a Protestant church in Salzburg.

However, mainsand that it is being considered as a legitimate manga adaptation and not just a game adaptation goes a long way in helping me to think that like of Buraima (BIZ), maybe the same status will come to Beiball tooWith that in mind, the anime is starting to turn out better than I'd imagined from the beginning even! I have to say I am quite happy to see so much muscled up silliness in there, something that I hoped RW could have shown but that this does not.Those have been the only changes I've seen so far to the eyes towards the meat of the show overall, I'm just curious if people are less into the coat-line of bereich before the end now, or if perhaps they've finally convinced themselves there is more else to follow to compliment this. I'll be pulling out another show very soon to get a more elevated view on this redheaded ninja, I might try Senheisin now too since I'm too lazy to keep watching the show.In the meantime, I find it churlish when people think RW is way worse than pretty much every last anime that's out there as if Sunwing or Monogatari are somehow still higher tier productions than this! It's not! Harvest Moon GO's World of Goo, Ghaltland GO's ZambiantuumonGO, and Kakegurui's R:GO all fall as low as Beiball...as do the abysmal cast and hackneyed plots that I'm editing up here Viva Nanoha: We are Never Ever Getting Back Together!, and so on and so forth, in fact that list of manybe dragons just to mention but one!So it saddens me to see this."Pompidou Beiges" sucks just as much as 'another' "Nen" did, and like Beiball, homegirl has other plans as well outside of trying to get the game officially placed. But, I'm now on board with that whole "Nen Outta Here" thing that's been done by the show. By far none of these shows have any hope of ever becoming a real God Eater fan-service show.Will likely continue posting as a RW master, I believe it feels like we've cut it very close, but I suspect episodes later on this week will show things get back on track after the full confession was done, or a fake resubmit in a difficult situation will show in-game footage instead.

That year, one writer described it as a place "beyond words and customs," a fleeting moment of hope, "the page's visual representation of human, . . . higher-quality life . . . the most convulsive experience." The very title provided a sense of existential pique: "New Amsterdam, You Are Here." This was a book officer's check, a recording of the world's running commentary, along with their own individual proclivities for mind-bending or deep thinking. - -In his successful initial prose treatment, The Town's Jerusalem, Lee Child imagined a bardo—"a vision of consciousness with a sudden disappearance into himself," which he explored on subsequent re-reads with sizzle of hashish and strong sexual tension. Though the British novelist's vision incorporated a meticulous, masculine subject matter, its author insisted that he appropriated the multitude textures of diversity to computer amazingments in mind and behavior. Particularly resonant to New Amsterdam, the city of mental exchange and profound humor was once perhaps the only choice choice for interstellar starships. On the other hand, there was psychostimulant substanceless sex and dazzling medical treatments that could only indulge the imagination of the professionally minded writer. Fortunately for its essayists and agents, that never failed to make the vast majority of self-diffusing dreamers check out their memos. - -Already home of John Gardner's acclaimed landmark The Falling Man, this was to be a series for 18 years. Obviously it influenced his book two seasons later, Life with Gravy, but what distinguishes Gardner's was the indomitable plot quality—rigid, fierce, small-loophole-driven, mind- bogglingly intelligent. It was an animated, scriptable, exploitative taxonomy revolving brightly off its stint at Peck's cinema chain, compulsively talktronizing America, from city to bar, according to contemporary popular inclination. Nearly every cautionary tale incantation against gun violence, domestic violence, sexual tyranny prevailing, grandmother feminist commentary, 50 Shades of Amours and Sex B&Es, job leads in consumer-publishing era, big city secrets hiding on a high-rise apartment balcony, bouquets of freshheaded trends– of course all dragged into testimony of thing people really needed from the New Amsterdam they sought, this political constitution as it purported to be the strangely price-responsive bureaucracy of the United States. - -Back in 1961, New Amsterdam's population of 250,000 resided in a shared wooded town of 520 name and registry blocks. 42 of these houses, in conjunction with laundry shops, catered to anyone for whom the loutish lech was a constant nosy companion. In other words the two-story town avoided stark space sprawl through novelty boutiques that shifted around the family's living room. There was a hillside cable car, where their elegantly bundled livestock endured grand differnces between sky and dirt. And there even was private accommodation; a house of prostitutes was piped in at night to their remote and small flats. The local theater hosts a dazzling popular comedy live daily in their huge grass-plaining building on Main Street. - -This late-winter Jumbo had cabinets of mystery, drunken animation and astonishing gentle clutter that suggested carefully chosen comrades who "shrank into inextricable creeperhood alongside" the individual so constant in people's imagination - -As late as perhaps 1982, Germany deigned to lose for writing the rights to one or more uncommercial 2012 episodes, with mastery in fine suite draws publishing IP cutaway-style. And yet. The waterfall flashlight hunted down brighter specialty handymen boxes. And the spiral glass art-bookcase came unbidden to such a political space as the corner of narrower shuffle. Political play, dimensioned discord remember, is controlled with aphasia of the left tower; they set them out on a pair of ethical faculties—destruction and defense—and arrange them into the worst another of values. What was particularly arresting about this late-winter Jumbo was cabinets of mystery, drunken animation and astonishingly gentle clutter that suggested carefully chosen comrades who "shrank into inextricable creeperhood alongside" the individual so constant in people's imagination. In this one instant where simply going was profoundly liberating, like a pilgrimage—sometimes merging into a spiriting incomposite back into wholeness: an intrigue. - -There were recognizable entities and structures until 1971; by 1987 all of them were given computing cautions and even emerged unairbrushed into their own comprehensive tissue: a flurry of well-chosen targets perhaps because of the unsexed female subject matter, or perhaps the complexity of the site depended on how the human affairs speaks to sloughing off its overstuffed box, or when the curator could scrub off the sheets by method rather than human regulation.

It is the result of the act of the lip being in both languages at once, a process called "hyper-ethnocentric," says Dawn Phillips, a University of British Columbia professor and bilingual education researcher. - -The ability to speak two or more languages takes time, training and experience. People who have suffered significant trauma in transition or trauma to language development often struggle to learn multiple languages comfortably, says Phillips, who co-authored a scathing new report on international educational disparities. - -Information came about China's Languages Transition Programme. Image Credit: China/AERSIT/Journal Sentinel archives - -In the US, making bilingualism natural and easy to learn may be why some third-language speakers are choosing to officially switch at a younger age.

Younger children who are bilingual gain the capability to speak multiple languages at a lightning pace. - -"Students who are born bilingual are able to learn languages well at a young age." —Wang Daoqi, University of Houston - -Still, in Quebec, Toronto, Vancouver and Vancouver Island, for example, third-language-speaking children often outnumber second-language-speaking students, according to a study by the Public Policy Forum. Doctors sometimes confirm that young children of immigrant parents speak Cantonese at home. Another notable finding of the Journal Sentinel's investigation is that many in Quebec "have difficulty in reading the basal letters, such as H and D, in howylines" and must practice. That can be "excruciating," says according to Amy Helsley, a social worker and preschool educator from Abergavenny – an Abitibi-Baie-Comeau municipality. - -Burma thus has one of the highest rates — up to 80 percent — of illiteracy in the developing world. Suffering from political turmoil has meant most school teachers are English-language fluent, according to James Rucker, a PRIMM University division director for education and research.

A code is always thought to be a convenience–a lock to prevent people from reading a given text if it were not secret.

Octavian Kamulunga, chief archaeologist at Luxor Archaeological Park, further explained the significance of the twomariants, saying, "The twomariants mark the way of path of the angels, which the ancient Egyptians believed was key to understanding the purpose of life.

Most people believe it's some sort of indirect indication of character alignment. - -If you define "alignment" as the way characters orient themselves with one another in varying degrees of segregation, then every character in our Culture must have a set of fixed traits and morals he or she enjoys living by. It's common to align the two halves of it, with "tit for tat", "people first" or "follow the mob" serving as universal examples. However, this has to be balanced by the idea of individuality and the need for a baseline of easy distinguishing roles as values. - -Most opinion pieces suggested "realistic" character names hew to conservative values. Thus, we have names structured around such themes as "Greedy", "Hard-Headed" and "Violent". Characters called "Roadkill", "Loser" or "Struggling Artist" are not crossing some arbitrary line but working within some somewhat loaded framework. They might not fit and their hard-headedness are seen as a weakness, but they only ever commits violence in retaliation and characterizations based around them indicate he/she believes in what they do, they definitely do more than "huckster", etc. - -Characters with set "Alignment" names tend to know what they're doing; by the very nature of their jobs, they can usually just follow their conscience. This makes them useful in a culture where crossing any self-imposed line is seen as fundamentally against their own nature and a major signifiers of callous filthfulness. An individual character who unwillingly stands up for an audience member in this way becomes one of the Heroes of Tyranny, although many will disagree with that title for the same reasons now. It also is not uncommon to find Dialogue Trees within a work with "Opposites Attract: Opposites Abound" Tropes. - -When the author(s) recognise this, all of their characters will have simple Follow the Leader names that act as a shorthand to establish that its character behaves in line with other characters in the same work.

Did she remember to do her ring thing?. She will.I suggest knitted satin cord, and also Red and Black satin cord but again remember to watch the stitches :) Mainly black will go with the collar. Then I need to add to the shoulder line and the wall stitch stitch. my way is to knit until the sock has half of the length finished, split it, repeat but not all the way around. -Next I recommend washing and ironing but I am very lazy at this.

Whilst a lot of these titles were once reported as either working perfectly or next to perfectly, the leak appears to show a slightly different picture depending on the day. It can be understood that the developers either intentionally or accidentally discharged their codes, resulting in known bugs and likely to be detrimental to the end-user experience. At the same time, it can also be understood that a high-tech midnight launch was cool (like having christmas shoppers for the first time). :-( - -Some titles, such as Final Fantasy VII (F7) and The Box launch "completely" correct, absolutely-legally but chances are, you could have had many other problems with a less ideal launch. According to the title specific dump, F7's newly patched "Get Stein" cheat does not work as advertised and if you had another shell game running, F7 begins to freeze. Final Fantasy VII Xtreme 2, released in 1989, does work without much trouble, but is an 8-bit wannabe as compared to the SNES eponymous Final Fantasy for which the gameboy users there – wearing their faaaaaaace – wore out sweat pants as it was STILL true to its original vision. Titles such as Double Dragon Neon ports and Professor Layton port also receive rave reviews.<|endoftext|>"Why not call the newcomers Hi-Glow Furs?" Mr Cooper commented. "I'll get this from you." Mr Cooper has the ear of the pastoral principals of what he calls "Turnbull's Retreat", the sprawling estate on the outskirts of the country town of Lismore which is home to more than half of all Australia's border unionist members. The massive property comprises ten satellite estates - very much Australia's biggest ever - which have proved the preserve of Mr Cooper and his mates. "We're talking about millions of dollars worth of land which has been developed with a view to turning it into farms - likely 30 to 40 per cent arable," he said. - -"The government can't live indefinitely on government farms, so the Bushfire Australia Fund enjoys the preserve of the landholder funds run by Queensland. Queensland replicated the Birandian Kidney Fund on this land. This is a progressive decision." Essentially, the ploy took the living standards of many Australians and cut them off from the planet again. Literally. "They can eat their fill of, for example, the lobsters and worms," Mr Cooper quipped. If the system could be rigged, the Mid North Coast property owners would be the first to be consigned to the wayside. - -But to Mr Cooper the argument that vegetarianism "helps out particularly the disadvantaged" falls flat because more than 70,000 Australians are still consuming meat directly due to some dubious reason. "If there is a problem, you would think the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage ministry would be responsible for responding to this but, as far as I'm concerned, they haven't done anything. The local authorities have also had no teeth in their action plans," he said. Australia's central reforms are being felt well beyond southern Australian borders. "The Australian Ocean and Great Barrier Reef fisheries are in the red, with much smaller fish stocks. The carbon dioxide emissions from land use in Adelaide are more than Cook Island's Isle of Hamster. It's staggering," he said. "What some people don't understand is megalopolis is ultimately the extinction of Australia." - -"When I started converting this farm you could look at this small blue kangaroo and think it's adorable. Later you would not be optimistic. You could said to yourself every time it saw a family of gazelle, it would think, 'Oh my goodness, the last time the gazelles replaced the zebra was about 600 to 800 years ago'."

He could have whatever they want if he feels like it. Dr. La spells out all the fine details: He's to remove the bags and, of course, get the clinic to operate — El Gringo is designed in the English manner of operations: - -One only has to run a palm of boot from the heel of the left foot to the middle toe, then run it back to the bottom of the foot, then in between the middle fingers of the right hand and see where it will end. The answer is this. - -List and excerpt from Alex's book. - -Alex goes on an operation where she will take his match sticks and bend them up under her thumb knuckles. She tries out the device briefly, only to discover the choice of volunteer opens her up to a whole new array of new problems. And it piques Alex's interest to have her "back" up her laptop against the wall. Dr. La tells her she loves them and points her to a plain, straight mat that might work. So Alex backs up her laptop in a moment. But, astonishingly, as she rushes to do so, she is astonished to discover that the same pattern continues—her laptop being each time stretched apart at a different joint. - -Alex reports that one of these easier will work, and Dr. La assures her she'll start to see her results tomorrow. And sure enough, within a few hand strokes, Alex sees that her laptop has gotten the soap from her bleached leg, admires it and vows that she'll always buy plants from big stores. - -Stitched examine the site of a broken artery. The surgeon returns and explains that the blood is rich in collagen, which will help it mend itself. Envisioned at knee level, Alex sees half a postulated shoulder endowment, upright and demanding a cool beverage. The surgeon indicates that, in keeping with the Cadmuslaw Lodge resources, the blood will be pumped into the facility's chute system through a system of tubes. One new procedure represented is immersion in a chemical cocktail. The Little Way, Stitched Inc.'s first set of surgical tools, will provide a solution. - -Alex reports that the second set of tools is great news and nothing to be nervous about. She'll get a "real guy, for real." Paints, couches and furniture will quickly fill the hall.

Last time we were in Dr. La's office, the surgeon performed the delicate job of maneuvering Shane's shadows out of Michael's faces. The actual surgery was done by a senior urologist, the ailing and very ill Chris Johnson. When she arrived for her first visit, Shane was glazed, sad looking, accepting a diagnosis of inflamation of the bladder caused by plaque. Dr. La changed that. Chris listened to her diagnosis and unhesitatingly popped out the scalpel. After only a short lancet procedure on Shane's spine, she whisked into white stretch pants and blue sweatpants. "Well, here's the bad news", she said. "That is, you are either going to have a cure or you are going to have to have a rehabilitation. Deal with that." - -Water Crisco Sea Angel — used to support toy soldiers — lead Anna.

As North Korean officials on Friday said it would have struggled to complete the work in time, abandoning the deal without a replacement power pany may cause the disgruntled South Korea's allies Japan and the United States to achieve what they have failed to do for some three decades: influence an isolated state such as North Korea. - -Obama advisers said they would wait to see what South Korean officials do before determining whether the U.S. is likely to further increase pressure on North Korea. But they said it could become more difficult to persuade South Korea to sign a new agreement ordered by former President Lee Myung-bak after his schizophrenia began interfering with his work and the health of his wife. - -The April announcement by Seoul's presidential office that former President Lee would sign the deal was financially frozen earlier this week and the agency said its agents themselves inquiry into charge at their own risk. The period for signing was expected to be November. - -"The president is doing this to make sure there are no external parties benefiting from our energy resources either through China or the South and Korean Energy ministries," said Lee Myung-bak, 72, the father of the current president and head of the ruling Democratic Party. "I hope South Korea will be brave enough to do it right after the National Assembly here begins debating the House of Representatives joint impeachment bill. - -"If they are afraid for the future of our economy, I sincerely hope they would move the bill." - -Another factor the U.S. might not consider: that while Lee has continued to enjoy his share of former friends' adoration, his health continued to deteriorate as it has over the years. His recent struggle was a danger to his own life even if the agreement would make sure the specific North Korean-held coal field he wants supplies the total amount imported by South Korea during 2013. - -In 2005, then-President Lee told Facebook followers that he would like to live out his retirement from public speaking including to sit on panels such as that of a female police union and a Democratic congressman. Lee couldn't meet the terms of the future agreement and told the Seoul court he needed the John Lennon Peace Prize to ease the transfer. - -Lee said North Korea plans to continue the project this year and said the two sides could sign a new agreement; unlike 2012, there are no requirements as there was in 2007 that North Korea give advance notice there would be tough visa laws. - -"There are no terms and conditions," Lee said. "We can build it whenever it suits President Park's scheme of things and President Obama's scheme of things." - -The $6.4 billion we owe the North for using South Korean energy resources may become a more pressing issue as it begins to diminish because of Kim Jong Un's load. So far, nuclear threshold facilities TVA's Vogtle and Hanford are becoming overloaded and South Korean officials have to import power via NuStar.<|endoftext|>A protester at the Satanic Temple-led "Bowling for Satan" event in Nashville, Tenn., in 2012. The event ended in disaster when Temples vandalized a church and attempted to burn a crucifix. (Photo: AP) - -Satanism isn't just a bunch of jokes passed off as argument against boobs. - -Public religious events in the U.S. have made headlines in recent years to promote radical messages about everything from the evils of secular humanism to sun worship and U.S. military veterans being treated unfairly at vets department clinics. This week, the Southern Poverty Law Center listed pagan organizations in 38 states where they are nationwide and faces severe legal scrutiny. These were defined as "largely defunct," a designation that can help watchdogs keep local chapters of budding organizations engaged and avoiding criminal indictments. - -These days the word Satan comes with a real punchline, not least of all since President Trump is both reportedly a member and satanist himself.

Applesauce! Smelled like my mom's apple pie at her house. Good update - it reminded me of lasagna. If you like egg sauce - this will definitely be on you next time you make lasagna! - - -This recipe comes from a most excellent cookbook called: Old Flourish: Ingredients of Success. I had never heard of the author, but I am so glad I had a chance to check this out. I felt super lazy about this recipe combined with my tiana allergy, and decided to HOLY CRAP TO JUST MAKE IT! - -Maybe un-lazy here is a better adjective, but it took a lot longer in the kitchen than I planned for. I reserve credit for that, but I desperately needed some blueberries in this to spruce this up a bit. Also, when my daughter Zoey woke up yesterday from a cool/cold zen nap, I decided to stop working on dinner and go get her something to eat since she's really a morning person. She started screaming and mumbling for half an hour or so because you boys don't come easy, I guess. - -Anyway, once Zoey got her breakfast and made eggs (thanks SISTERS LEADERS — I am talking to you too!) I spent the next hour enjoying Adrie on toast that Jacob, my son in law, had prepared in many different colors. The color cachet never goes out of style but finger food at any rate. I was still pouring coffee when Jacob asked what was for dinner and I said - applesauce, of course, for us banana folk. Jacob said it's basically apple sauce. Guess what? He is exactly right. I threw some smoked Gouda on each plate and the bread and I AM THE BEST PERSON EVER. - -I added a few cubes of strawberry, topped it with a zippy pear juice, sprinkled it with crushed walnuts, wasabi and sesame seeds, topped it off with some grated cheese and finished off this smoothie with some Coffee Jack tomatoes. Becuase ready to clear up any confusion that I am not freaking out over this new cooking blog idea I just came up with — and are going to make a bunch of videos about.

As he spoke with CNN's Perla B (now Perla C), Zarif asked if the United States had decided to unilaterally resume its economic and diplomatic isolation of Iran. "Which Plan B is it going to be?" if this plan works, asked Zarif, who was re-elected as president by a razor-thin margin last week. "Are we off the ledge?" he asked. - -For terms of the nuclear agreement among the six world powers and Iran, details of which remain unclear, the Mason — along with two supply ships the Americans had boarded that broke the international law of ship boarding — is prohibited from coming to shore in Iran, according to the agreement. - -Zarif was referring to his own government's refusal two years earlier to allow the ship to start its journey off the west coast of Iran, where it was going to fetch onboard the ten-man crew. Zarif donated the ship to the White House, sat on a team considering serving as a witness in the Iran-contra congressional hearings and -======================================== SAMPLE 313 ======================================== -Tauntaun is built for a particular job, something more viscerally satisfying than Mario's shiny little plumber or Bullet Bill's snarling fowl. A weighty silliness -- Busta Rhymes was catching flack when it came out -- it checks all the innocent boxmarks of a satire or irony, scrapping the game felt silly; while also acknowledging its possible appeal beyond antagonizing the childish audience it wolfed down nine carats flowing green on the edgy level. - -The series had its second attempt with 1992's Doom, and its critical reception was rather mixed, even if the gameplay drew more on the kinetic agility and visceral excitement of the 2600 Stormtrooper than the Firaxis makers ever innovated. - -Trolls remains relevant today, but its appeal has "waned" in a few quarters; maybe a perceived need for the strong all-powerful couplet of nostalgia made an impressive copperberry following a bit too hastily. Which is all a curious context for an album that garnered the highest sales of this year's roster of NeoGAF bootyissers. - -Throwing up the cover art, cornering NeoGAF's reaction, Googling its key amusing phrases and playing the muted concept soundtrack once again were all I needed to get an answer to a question anyone looking forward to the album walked across. - -That answer was: "Was this already on it's way?" - -Like Brimstone, Doo-Wop Superstar's production values are on another par entirely from Grizzly Bear stripped of Messi to stress-shredding a metal riff. At a basic business level Bravo is making a "rock record" in idea as well as execution. Along with Doo-Wop Superstar's Lawless mic mastery there's the icy precise coffin-slamming of Charlatans and Guy Pratt's drumming locally spice the album.

The deadline for the delivery of US-made S-300 missile defense system to Syria fell on Friday, except the battery from Belarus, the head of Russia's General Staff's Main Operational Directorate Yuri Borisov said on Friday. - -"We hope that the deployment of the missile defense system via an airfield in Latakia to serve as shield of the Syrian air base will be a quality-management action with stakes of thousands of personnel. We thus hope that this project will turn out to be successful," Putin said on Thursday about the delivery of 13 S-300 batteries to the Syrian army. - -"We believe that the S-300 air defense missile systems will play a key role in preserving air-defense capabilities. Russia is committed to their delivery to the Syrian state and open strategic program on 17th March. The time for sending the first batch of three defense missile systems to the air force training base is 70 days after the adoption by the Syrian government decision to switch to Russian S-300 systems," Borisov said. - -Russia has been actively supplying systems to anti-terrorist coalition fighting the terrorists in Syria, he said. He added that Russia has already proposed in conversations on achieving lasting settlement in Syria to the United States and the international community. - -"Russia, for the first time, makes a contribution to creating stability in Syria, to building the initiative on the political and legal solution," he said. - -The principal characterization of tangible progress observed by the parties involved is the delivery of 15th battery to Kilis airbase, including to protect the citadel there and protect "power supply, a power line and the local air force reaffirmed Frequent stroke monitoring" - -The drop in the terrorist employment of Attana river came about from it being filled up with water and not being damaged by the floods it suffered, to include sowing food crops in the region.

This claim requires validation, a Metro report said. - -On Wednesday, Russia's president Vladimir Putin said that the humanitarian aid in Crimea was very important as a result of destruction caused by the American action. - -"Of course, as soon as it was established that this situation in the Crimea presents a continuing threat, not a passing anomaly…we were obviously analysing the humanitarian gives and the steps necessary to ensure their safety," he said. - -At the same time, Putin took revenge in return to sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States for the annexation of the peninsula of Crimea, lacking cognizance that those sanctions were not connected to the abolition of people. Crimea lies some 150 kilometres to the east of the Black Sea coast and Russia. - -"As of early January, we had already sent two pints of blood and three huge gas masks. All Russian citizens decided during elections to move to a whole variety of alternative number of organizations present in Crimea abroad. - -There are close to 40 diaspora organizations in Crimea. Russia allowed a thorough service for people moving (to communities in by their self-discovery). At today, nearly 40% of all organizations have already been established," Putin said. - -The money received is fed to civil society.

Either way, it will be a new twist to how tight ends have worked in recent years. In a case like this one, a tight end can prove largely unblockable by opposing quarterback and wide receiver combinations, which positions a quarterback or wide receiver to have one of his flaws erased. - -The previous few few Super Bowls were won or lost largely because of tight end joy. The consistency of tight ends in winning the football game has helped define today's game. Teams now build game plans to feed the passing game and leave the tight end on the opposite side of the field unblocked so the distance in the passing game becomes more to this team's advantage simply because the tight end cannot be blocked. - -Hernandez's job as a running back also consists largely of removing blockers, which may be why the Jaguars used him on the goal-line back-field reads more than once in the Super Bowl. He certainly didn't change the Patriots' game plan as much as he also got Hernandez more frequent touches as a runner than he would have by using him more as a receiver, although that ratio was dropping.<|endoftext|>From abandoning the judiciary and judiciary assistants as a possibility to fixing the whip to cut down the age below which they were being appointed and who would be underneath in the executive, effectively becoming anti-fair and impartial to protect unpopular ministers (in case we need to have an election), Lord Justice Leveson spent a lot of his time tearing down the very thing that Prime Minister David Cameron had talked recently about when he called for an end to the culture of confidentiality, which results in not seeing his own mistakes by the press and the police. Because of the "culture of accountability," taking down the chiefs of SFO and GOM, why aren't we hearing about "isolated incidents" between senior Civil Service officials, if the documents were shared with the American cable news programs? Do we still need the highly secretive meetings of the FSA where there's a change of policy saying that tobacco can be promoted and kept on store shelves? The difference is that the penalties for not serving your board until retirement age ("dead time") are not quite as draconian as they would be in the absence of the "culture" from which we seem to feel we are exempt. - -As far as the problems of Sir Stephen's and Lord Howard's appointments and the recommendations of the Leveson report go, Conservative plans for the closure of Royal Mail to pre-empt a possible Labour defeat in the 2015 General Election are the most intriguing. Not only that, but allowing these two men to enter Parliament was supposed to help the Tories at the next election. Do we really need a plan that disincentivizes voting Tory? What plan? We don't control the horses, we must depend on the horses to control us. Who can honestly tell me, regardless of his unpleasant opinions, that this is a sensible plan for the future of Britain? The gender princes of this world urgently need to be weaned off by this and all handmaidens and supporters and staff of them to top up the bailout of the as yet hopelessly insolvent Royal Mail. The expert, legal person in this crisis, CPS Tom Gilbert, has expressed doubts about the methodology with which Leveson looked at the "confidential information" in the Falcao/Pattillo correspondence and the chain of emails between Sir Stephen is seen as a curious omission in the report. - -The report ignores all these things which were entertaining enough for reporters including certain papers, the Prime Minister's interventions, even lending British justice a very out-of-date nickname like – competent, as if it were a relative factor, akin to driving a car or handling a firearm. In fact, you would be hard pressed to find a justice of the peace, or even a junior magistrate, very bustled up then, as their time seems to be a waste of funding and potentially troubling for a big auto dealer in Huddersfield. Of course all of that might be different if No. 10 agreed to say something more on the subject of the high court. - -Speaking of the organization of the super state of Britain, the report is curious about the limited review it looks at the currency policy advocated since 2010 by Chancellor George Osborne and the Chancellor's office – half of which came in the form of new depreciation provisions for the sterling. Claims that Mr. Osborne's handling of Britain's formation in 2010 contributed greatly to its new status as the world's richest country, was talked about in the report. Again how self-important can one be in asking one's Treasury and Chancellor an identical question for the identical policy concerns? - -One of the planks in the reforms of the NSA prior to -======================================== SAMPLE 316 ======================================== -Trump County Sheriff Susan Pamerleau has unenthusiastically endorsed Donald Trump for president of the United States. - -Pamerleau of Rolla announced her decision on Trump's Twitter page Monday afternoon.

Ed Royce, a Republican from California, as H.R. 767, the Israel Development, Relief and Security Act. It is named after the West Bank settlement known as Ariel. - -Appropriation - -The bill would authorize a total of $38.4 billion over 10 years. However, if approved under current outgoing law, that would likely cost $10.8 billion over the next five years. - -The bill had previously passed the House on a 403-1 vote earlier in December by voice vote; the last three Republicans to vote against it were Susan Collins of Maine, R-Maine, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky. - -The Senate Foreign Relations Committee approved the bill unanimously in May. Its Democrat leadership is thought to be trying to pass the legislation before the recess next month. - -Congress initially approved $38.1 billion over a 10-year period in a 2017 spending measure. House Democrats were planning to attach their own aid legislation to the 2017 spending bill, but that provision was deferred in negotiations. - -Rep. Eliot Engel of New York, the top Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said his committee is working on several versions of an aid package. - -"This bill covers the core foreign assistance needs of Israel, but also includes support for other important security-related programs, including Israel's participation in the effort to end nuclear proliferation and Israel's assistance to protect our troops from chemical and biological weapons threats from the Middle East, and especially Syria," Engel said. "This $40 billion package is the most comprehensive $40 billion package provided for a single ally since 1998. I am very encouraged that the Senate is moving this legislation along without delay." - -On the debate floor of the House of Representatives earlier the same day, the fight was on, for and against the measure. While Democrats said they were offering a bipartisan bill, Republican legislative aides on the Hill said the latest GOP data represented increased opposition among Republicans in both the House and Senate to the bill, in part because of a 13th hour change in the language of the bill that would have made support for a six-month free amnesty for Dreamers,000 undocumented immigrants, ineligible for aid. - -Listen to the BBC (2:48) concerning DeVos - -Many of who voted no grumbled that this attributed more to access to cheap labor the lawmakers claimed to oppose.

[mfw] 12 "We're walking back toward the bickering and the argument and hearing the commotion, but my husband kept to the wits. He kept saying, 'Shut up. This is boring; walk along.' Descent, he always called it suicide. And he was right, but I love him and I'm glad he doesn't know it." Seaman Mary Dearman, 75, of Bethany, La., enlisted in the US Naval Women's Reserve in 1962 and was commissioned as a Seaman in April 1967. Twenty-two months into Basic Training, she was bitten by a stage stingray and sank the cinder five feet. "They put three boards down in the deep, because there was a lot of solid flooring. I tested for deep water," she said. "I got it! Cold water comes out, my body, you know... I couldn't swim. Murph...I touched the bottom of the bay that she put us in — the boiling, black water." Dearman that after days of fetal position in her blanket, pulling out the gas-filled gaseous blocks with her teeth and pulling out the float — she swam to shore, noting a solitary calf on the returned passageways. "I was the only one who did it," she said. "I had relatives that had they passed away in Vietnam. I said, 'Hold on well, Mary. I got to work this out.'" And she did. The subsequent weeks were a blur of exertion, exhaustion, failure, and persistence. Dearman said that even at home, her husband "would make us walk down the hallway to the shower and pumps and jugs an hour before he came home so he had time for a bath. And he not only bathed but got a nice shower and shave." Remarkably, Seaman Dearman collected 75 medals and recognized awards as a nursing airman and 50 honor medals. Most recently, she received the Gold Cross of Merit for nursing and a Silver Cross of Honor and Purple Heart for work she did in Vietnam for the Department of Veterans Affairs. Seaman Dearman folded her scarf over her shoulders and cracked. "My whole life I have never worked. Medicare was here in the days, right? I loved my job, but I'd rather stay home!

Nikiya Harris (D-Portland Establishes PERMIT SYSTEM DISCLOSURE GAP) that fixes a rather devious loophole concerning marijuana medical cannabis cultivation by her constituents. "This would close a little-known loophole which currently allows the medical marijuana production of modest home plants in Oregon," Harris told NewsBreaker. - -In March, voters approved Proposition 64 which legalizes marijuana in Oregon, and its 'labeling and testing' has been a topic on many marijuana law experts' attentions due to a lag in obtaining the right for larger licensed operations to be certified as laboratories for marijuana cultivation and distribution. Thereupon, the Legislature ordered the Oregon Health Authority to issue ' authorizations of medical marijuana trade reputation,' though the current statute is unclear as to how that process's demonstrate members of the Oregon Medical Marijuana Company (OMMCO) and the proponents' organization, Your Washington PAC, should claim particular groups and businesses which have membership on a medical marijuana enterprise registry. This law has now handed OMROC and YOUR Washington – if they end up securing the secretly issued logic and 'ambitions' of OMMCO, homosexuals, New Agers and Good Ol' Boys from Denver and the Mexican states – their serious and oft-discussed goal of tailoring marijuana grows to their desires. The not-so-small industry of cannabis cultivators in Oregon currently solely has the ability to grow $500m in medically-processing marijuana annually without a permit. That they could do so was causally managed by OMMCO's CEO, Chuck Rifici, who moved production plants hundreds of miles to avoid the same tenuous percentage requirements the State abruptly created to prevent heavy industry interests from entering one of the state's most educated and scientifically fleshed-out tax-ated economies. A meticulous plan was put in place tasked with beating it out of the balls of the elected representatives of the state in order to forward the hopes and dreams of the petitioners and their pasture plants. - -This loophole plague was a lock-in choke-hold upon industry growth well before 2012 when the Northwest Nutrients Order was created. This small of a splinter collective of Oregon's Namaste joining forces with his alma maters, Northern Lights Chemicals, in order to look closer at and be less hostile to allowing specialty marijuana crop producers to gain the sanctity of grower certification.

Terrorism and civilizational threats are intrusions into values we find universal. Religious fundamentalism affirms one source of our values as ultimate. Russian at a basic level searches for fullness there and for a complete answer to it. Ethicists are Russians and try to take a look the continuity of our values there—I've seen some just try to advance a position on us (or "the West"). Militant anti-Westernists will also rationalize suffering in the world to justify their values. I know information gathered by the CIA, MI5, et al. are collected for other agencies and we cannot read their minds. What one studies from Russia affects us too. But in most instances, I think we have a better perspective on the people, the voices, the motivations, and threats than anything else. - -AA: Your book The Anatomy of Influence deals extensively with how cultural prestige is theorized in Western societies and how it is relatively difficult and almost impossible for people, other than intellectuals, to understand this type of influence. I'd like to follow up on this with your research on the dynamics of Moscow's Washington: How does one even begin to understand such an urban influence on the Kremlin? - -PM: I think that's a good question in literature and beyond, for any scholar or writer. My own goal is to explain how and why the process happens. We have all of the means we need. The power structures in Russia today are very favorable to both sides. They have foreign policy objectives: political correctness, defamation of Russian values, and the increased consolidation of corruption networks. Putin remains popular yet the engines of political power, whose source of power lies outside the Russian borders, have consolidated into a very broad bureaucracy with political ambitions of their own. This is when the venues for cultural installation, originations and diffusion shift: the street and radicalization begin. First, people are exposed to Western culture, which distorts the view of Russia and terrorists. Second, they are created by Western culture. - -In appreciating culture, we have a bias against it.

Lake Superior preserves about ten square miles of land, and, rather mysteriously, in this barren landscape, altogether too few people survived the formative years. The science that hinted at this bizarre remarkable trick was called Submarine Geology. Geologists convinced a distraught Captain Nemo in the 1999 blockbuster Finding Nemo to travel to the bottom of the dark water to tell lost children of lost fathers but, instead, they found a trove of creatures much gluttier: something after the sinkholes, far, far more dangerous (originally pictures and stories of it might have been evocative of the last Dunkirk). Lake Superior's vast blue spit cradled downsize glaciers, armadillo-like fronds of distant spires if you will, like an Odd Couple, or some gigantic severed head that had apparently washed up ashore. - -I recall a weekend during our road trip back from Seattle which was a sort of reverse-atonal Don Quixote of Canadian geography – Lake Superior and Vancouver Island tend to seem small as Big Macs but, to really conquer the wilderness, they need to be painstakingly approached from roughly opposite directions. While I and my crew had been dreaming of this adventure for a couple of weeks, we immediately acquired an app that could flag certain curiosities on the map, using split-second GPS locators to maximize our chances. Eager to discover the best locations, we took a road trip across the northernmost part of B.C. nine days before receiving word that my SUV cruiser had left the strange whole semi-indistinguishable from clouds of foam and gloop called urban civilization. - -As cruel as this creature is, he is not as outlandish in appearance as comes to mind, misidentified as a wasp, in fact he is a man, a goofy-looking wacky-yarring-about who rides a bicycle like a big wheels off-road jeep to the lake! I set up an impromptu search party in protest of "Bigosaurus Demonic Care" with noise guitars, extended waves of lilt, and a few sad shrieks of "AH AH AH AH!" Growing up to make tubes to sigh into, even fans from Northern California who figured out exactly where to listen without accident actually came down to share my put-and-take inspiration. - -After we set up camp, I leaned on stairs leading deep into the lake to draw off the warm pitiless fluorescence of far-away northerly stars, desperate for any evidence that we really were located in a glacial dawn. Opposite an old surveying technique used to record creep-like toenails on the shoal bottom, it looked as though wasps, and gnarled land squiggles, and some sort of motley needlelike rivulet of the dead had accumulated by last winter. After all, New England would have a nice minefield to help its farms appear just right if the dreary and depressing binary of human geography they are accustomed to survived the 20th century, and Canada's wastelands likely would too if the excruciating plodding happiness of life largely righted for will be recorded into computers. I checked several sources for the location, none with any other hint of biological significance. - -Almost immediately, it miraculously occurred to a Yale Games Canvas program that found the image of a post descending into a shimmering gap desk, that the ring of black-light visuals in the lower quarter of the picture appeared to some just like the outer plate winking off from the ingot of uranium on a planet that-God forbid-a man may encounter at some point in the future.

The next day was awarded the main responsibility for the tragedy – in self-interest. "The case for consequences", The Times headlined the backing in a column by Stephen Thistle, editor of The Independent. - -Bullying the Hillsborough victims - -And Mr Thistle criticised Fermanagh and South Tyrone MP Nigel Dodds for having a "double-standards" and running "bullying campaigns without regard to historical fact". This on the very day that his constituents in the eponymous constituency have been victims of a large mob damage campaign in which an 88-year-old man, John Magee, was stabbed over 65 times and lay dying in a car. To be clear: only 160 people attend the annual June march which Mr Dodds, who insists he did nothing wrong in earlier controversies, leads from his miles adrift seat near Ballygawley in South Down. - -Much more than a foot race - -Labour MP David Winnick said: "There obviously have been issues in Fermanagh and South Tyrone arising out of recent events, but the jury in the inquest that delivered an appalling and unjust verdict has then sought statements from multiple parties to what happened, primarily in Fermanagh and South Tyrone, and consistently seems to have achieved more in this regard than all the issues the jury addressed in its 107-page judgment." Right upon hearing these comments, Mr Thistle, despite not being present at any of the Gibbs Thurles heralded dictatorships brutal stabings by clergy men and juries that upheld their understanding of landowners' rights, took umbrage and fired a volley from his mouth to continue the campaign against Fermanagh. - -Reading South Africa from his fingers - -Mr Dodds cites the aforementioned South African dictator's intimidating tactics and blows his credibility out of the water when he also blasted the scale of the victims' experiences from dragging elephant carcasses to immolation to being transported and the legal challenges that guaranteed as much. Implicitly, Dodds spoke for the majority of the British electorate when he accuses Mr Thistle and the BBC of seeking to advance race-baiting. Like Israel's "war criminality" investigators, the Investigating Officer usurped the power to investigate rather than resulting from it and these extremely full-on attacks follow the usual Zionist' process of delegitimising western democracies's sovereignty as such investigations and Congress Decrees often create a pattern that repeats itself and, of course to ease the persecution and punishment of Israel, I believe only future substitutes and victims will ultimately be mentioned. - -The lure of higher office - -When the shoestring evidence – destroyed evidence missing 6 fire engines – had finally been discovered their quizzing of Mr Dodds was tame, comparatively, to none other than Mr Thistle himself when he asked Dodds about the mysterious disappearance of Pink Floyd singer Roger Waters: - -"I don't get that. People shouldn't have to kill to make a point" - -The news that Dodds, half a mile from home and standing alone on Westminster's main food court groaning from the nomination of this second-rate human being turned "chairman" of the Local Government Association, a mere bleacher pavilion taking a seat alongside Simon Austin Jones, a former mayor of London, perplexed no one and and in the very lowest of terms displayed a first-class understanding and sympathy of organisations devoted to the promotion of "Fairness from a Distance Down the Nation". - -Misunderstanding views on compensation - -The blind"Mirror Group" eagerness to defend the Eccentric Majority even when media readers in the region warned them to save them from the inevitable attacks by scouse-speak magnates who dragged through testimony entirely based on unfounded demeanour of protesters.

If they wanted to use them to further their own misguided and phony claims they would do very well indeed.

They depend not just on the collective – the group – understanding, but also on external stimulus: the novelty of a matter of state of affairs within the realm of influence of the individual suggested by the collective.   Schelling describes this rudimentary impulse as "colorado boiling": when people have an honest discussion of their views, a personal perception of that is resolved, at it is said, to private insecurity or elitism. [9] Our judgement of these potential actions is made largely by their proximity to us, at the event of our consideration of their ability. Perceived importance is further determined, by our ability (or inability) to perform the action, and we filter our eagerness toward perception simplisities, on the basis of highly selective data. A hypercritical scrutiny of this measure would force us to expand the list of relevant events, in our own sphere of influence. -" Reality sinks the ship " -and its destructive impact reinforced so that it would be fatal in the current state of usability -mereNavigation ... like magic -83 early hrs gone -average distance up rose deals -loss of time much of without .. like a smokestack of air -shift of the wind fights -took her pole if needed -ackwicket1 .0.is her .0.... stoppedup .... was sold the cigarette her buycedeck -  the brickdoll of sport " -A subtler concern though is the validity of our perception of the situation.

They lined up on the perimeter of the front steps and inserted themselves into the eponymous vehicle. By 4:20am, an officer scooped up one subject and placed him in the backseat of the unmarked car, locked the doors, and ushered the others inside. (When interviewed under penalty of perjury, one of the five insisted that he would not fight the case.) By 4:40am, Jordan Remick, a member of the Black Lives Matter DC chapter who recognized the car's owner, in a phone interview with DCist, had spotted one of the guests enter a nearby Starbucks before breaking away from the group. "[The officer] told us we had to go," said Remick, a senior at Howard University. Afterwards, she and several friends, including Aaron Barkley, a 24-year-old intern at a nonprofit organization, drove to the Capitol to protest the detention of Remick and others who joined her the next morning. "[The cops] took a nonviolent person and put them in handcuffs," said Barkley, a DC native. "It's the most retarded thing I've seen in this city in my entire life." - -On August 17, Remick and several other protesters showed up at the Capitol to protest the exoneration by the DC Superior Court of James Bunting, who was charged with the 1961 shooting death of James Chaney Junior, who was reportedly returning home to his girlfriend on the night of August 5th, 1941. According to Bunting's story, the young white male accosted the 86-year-old black man and demanded cash, which Bunting handed him along with a knife. Chaney dropped his suit coat and wallet, raised his hands, and posed no immediate threat to the robbers, prompting Bunting to shoot him. Observers believe the 1986 trial deprived Chaney's parents and brother of the opportunity to prove their innocence at the time; only their father ever confessed to the crime. - -ADVERTISEMENT Thanks for watching! Visit Website - -According to a June 2015 report published by the DC Public Defender Service, "actual innocence is rarely recognized" because the legal system offers considerably more prison time to people who testify in a judge's chambers than to those who deny their guilt. Well aware of this reality, Bunting's high-dollar defense hearing pitted Bunting, a 26-year-old white man, against Marlinton Brown, a black, 22-year-old student, a.k.a. Kevin Harris, from the Howard University campus. Brown offered confessions on the stand, matching Bunting's story, as well as statements from witnesses who knew both men.

Sony responded by asking those who filed complaints about the MGS 5 story to continue to directly communicate Sony in tweets, emails and/or post to social media, or someone should get in touch with Nintendo. However, although a direct Nintendo response seemed unlikely because Musketeer has been a Sony-exclusive since 2003, Nintendo decided to respond for both the sake of gamers and to "help aspiring game designers try … something new, different, and new." - -Business PR could affect MindMaze development - -"We certainly were not trying to call the folks here at Nintendo into any discussions for trademark infringement, but frankly we would love to see the VNs appear on a wide range of platforms," an official Nintendo statement says.

"There are hundreds of millions of branded games, hundreds of thousands of hours of gameplay, and yet neither had any explicit plans to enter the music subscription market," says Nintendo COO Reggie Fils-Aimé. - -Sony briefly tried to make the Musketeer story standalone without the rape subplot to see if NPD would actually slide it in to comply with its anti-piracy policies, but NPD denied the request. Ubisoft was granted permission to include anything designed to make the main character look sexy in its demo, though Ubisoft says, "As it currently stands, the episode is very far from violating anything. There is nothing the broadcast reruns have done to demonstrate that they are actually exploitative. At this point, we have no further plans to include the subplot into the semi-final cut." - -Exit Theatre Mode - -Akira Toriyama, creator of what was originally a Quake game, describes the MGS series as designed around players learning complex, subversive systems and becoming masters of XCOM style squishy aliens. "The game engine configuration [Nintendo and Microïds] are appealing because it allows freedom of content – which content can be an effectless user-interface of a terminal, a FPS firing set, sparks flying off an alien's power source in close combat or snow coming out of a display display," he writes. - -"With these sorts of assets, any approach can be game-monopolized and captured.

According to figures from the New York Times, the organization's work spread in April, adding homeless individuals to various shelters, taking into account the needs of their family members and making more sporadic trips to exchanges and chain stores in search of blankets and other items. - -Authorities hope the new system, which the city hopes will be a model for other municipalities, will clarify the roles of institutions, public insurance companies, hospitals, jails and nonprofits in transforming people who are no longer able to get by into affordable housing, just like any other tenant. - -"It's definitely going to be a model for other jurisdictions to follow, and I think a model to change hearts and minds around homelessness—and exceptionally in cities like Philadelphia, on the [working] side especially," Planned Parenthood Federation of America's Philadelphia Regional Director Shamik Das told the Times in early July. Community-based informal shelters like the Wheaton Shelter create an "indoor version" of the temporary shelter system, she said. - -In addition to important informational infrastructure and language from CSO's playbook, the city received funding and resources to deal with discrimination in job placement for people with criminal records, where for said advocates, social mobility was forced to turn to the back seats of cars. - -The crisis ignited by legal protections for LGBTQ people has forced much steeper attention on the needs of the poor, often in ways as basic as hunger—community food banks and coordinated community food pantries are some of the only readily available programs accessible to people with no other manner to provide for themselves. Through supportive retention studies, a recent Baltimore effort at instituting flexible work policies has trained more than 35,000 low-wage workers on the personal and professional costs of working families they come in contact with year after year. A data analysis of those models, which have repeatedly undergone public and regulatory scrutiny, suggests that following the Philadelphia model—and the federal poverty guidelines designed around it—could result in more than 1 million working parents earning as little as what the national poverty line varies month to month. - -The fledgling Philadelphia model that The Elephant Sanctuary brought to life offers government the opportunity to work toward innovation, reforestation and long-term health in the midst of an already difficult population.

There are evidences in every age and nation, small and big, that sapient men and women have held preconceived opinion, and initiated struggles for bills of rights which their fruits realized might say nothing but "Happily go with you if possible."

But given our attitude toward "fake news" and, more generally, Big Media today, it's hard to take seriously the point "When we asked readers for tips on where to find trustworthy political reporting in the aftermath the election, Trump critics predicted that outlets with a liberal bent had a huge advantage on the Internet, because consumers would be far less likely to trust them."

Yet the Iceland saga attended Tim Burton's famous film like a neighbor, combing both through the overstuffed hype of the summer entertainment spectacle and instinctively embracing the style and spirit of its alternate reality. - -Photo - -In fact, there is something uncommonly personal about "How to Train Your Dragon," the film's universally acclaimed success in the Middle Ages that aided the release of the movie. It would normally make sense for theater owners to prefer a suddenly popular films that would set many separate interests buzzing about the business -- like Marilyn Manson or the French indie darlings Angelique Kara Souteyrat, whose Øystein Aarseth-directed "Tenthousand Tapes - -of Hope" wowed the Cannes audience in 2010. But Karen Kim, a Philadelphia-based managing partner at GKL Advisors, which sells and manages cinemas, insisted that Mr. Coleman had been locked down for four or five years. The celebrity visitors provided the necessary buzz while the plentiful talk about the movie, in defendant comparison, had more to do with "editorial savvy and attention to detail" than his reviews, Ms. Kim said. - -Three years ago, after co-writer Balazs Davos and Mr. Coleman had landed a big script and a handful of big-name stars, cinemas began to sense that "How to Train Your Dragon" might be something special. "What Was Left of Me" was widely considered one of the year's best revivals, with Lindsay Lohan hiding her face with Internet girl dreadlocks. In a rare summer split for the Lonely Island misfire "Hot Patootie," the move had made America wholly enthusiastic. - -Fortunately for Mr. Coleman, whatever inspired the buzz he created also controlled its reception. "How to Train Your Dragon" had quickly become a fixture at theaters -- from Alvin and the Chipmunks, because every person in the theater seemed to know "Grolliver," to the ascendant teen-box office phenomenon "Spongebob Squarepants," so he had market-ready buzz behind him. If some viewers deluded themselves into flocking to the trapped comic about a juvenile reindeer on an epic quest to win glory, others compulsively skated to metered R-rated covers of it over-the-top references. "It's trickier than 'Guess. Pay. Go. Be Fierce.' " Mr. Coleman said. - -Photo - -The glitter changed sometimes.

"I don't know what the hell anyone was doing on Cuzfire," he said. - -Within a matter of weeks, channel-driven news and magazine covers were riveting T.V. moments, notable only for being debated between starry-eyed sounds.

The meteorological station Uotraa has demonstrated as much as −11°C in one case, but many satellites (e.g. 4665x, 5755x) show cooler readings in the ~17°-25°C region. The tracked station, Alang – Democrat – Province (ADP) in Ariscal, Maguindanao showed +23°C on 2 passes (26 June and 31 May in higher resolution than many other sites).

      <|endoftext|>From the very first episode of American Dad! it could be certain that the pieces both string and chalk will be used to make it through the season and be passed on from season to season. In any case, that world has been coming to an end tonight and of course, sabot clashes are pretty much Merle's favorite kind. - -Probably because Merle has earned his. Bennie Castellaneta should be pretty comfortable sitting in the chair being taken into the school infirmary. Or perhaps, we should just take the nod and let us home. There is lust involved and knowing signs of Merle could be in the black books of this thing and why else am I reading? - -This whole time I felt the intensity in the episode. Look past the fact that an irreparable rift has been created between Louie and Stan. It would be naïve to assume that fans will automatically jump to such importance. But, so often we neglect how these characters grow or should grow, and I am not naming names here – a plethora of them. But, Louie and Stan float headfirst in splitting open when FX's finest move with their action scene with literally the line "Whoa". - -"Whoa". Louie laughs as he shouts over towards the spirited women shouting his name with enthusiasm from the first minute of the episode. Do they have any idea that within minutes Louie is going to heckle them like he always does? They surely are not capable of chatting with one another without giggling from the intensity. - -"Whoa". Does really make the difference for the next couple of key speeches. They are different. Really different. - -This chapel era high school setting has not been actively used by anyone before. More of a early 20s retreat. If you have ever seen a girl in those pretty dresses, you know what I am talking about. They are all different. Yes, she is attractive to me. I don't care if the guy is not. Girls don't dress apropos of all men's descriptions. Being the guy that recently conceived a child and went home and cried to the woman that would be his provider, I like any female in their pretties to look at. I will bring home the prettiest and nicest face from hell and I will shoehorn myself into her sweet spot effectively. - -But, having grown up in straight couples with the skittiest of intentions we believe that other people must approve of us and need this. We are every member of a system of power that force us to feel broken and damaged for them. Which makes the crimes of the homophobic church around us all the more heinous and treatable if the punishment was as unusual of it feels with marriage. It is all insignificant insofar as their intentions here were to try and "clean up" this world. Those that were true to their missions and not just went door to door encouraging civil speeches. - -Almost every scene is spent with all those little frag plots. From Faye's gruff negative clark to Allison's character foundation, Gillian's friend group to the laugh simply of Mr. Ellison, you get the idea. Hopefully Tracey is thinking this well. The grief over her decision is coming in full force and of course, Courtney speaks up for the staples who are the Philly cult but only to make fun of the ceremony and the partners of this tired world. While at the cemetery at the wrong time and Martin is marching straight towards us. - -Martinson can crisscross all over the template of chance. All from a narrow corridor before a church where they are dealing with anger towards god in the confusion of it all. Somehow Martin a new Billy Joel hit song through a coffee table book, crying while lecturing any who would listen, the later changes. Naturally, the world's sympathy has been ripped from that persepective being written by Philip Michael Thomas, and he has worked hard rewording the words to include a little more truth to the title of the song. This brings it up on greater acceptance. - -Even the lawmakers seeking the media's attention into an appropriate viewing of the ceremony. Even when they refuse to point the party candidate. Each response coming from an individual's and cell -======================================== SAMPLE 353 ======================================== -RISING blood pressure is a major preventable cause of cardiovascular disease, but its lifespan is still unknown. And because modern drugs are not any better than the ones of the past, many researchers support an evolutionary theory known as anti-airway resistance. - -The higher blood pressure that develops with age is usually thought to be due to metabolic abnormalities. The overly efficient function of our ancestors' body-systems became stressed, leading to an evolution of insulin resistance that later on leads to cardiovascular diseases. This theory is well proven, partially supported by the presence of the gene for the adrenal cortex in several human tissue samples. Even more, our cone photoreceptor cells are estimated to have developed from experiences with flying through the colored light of the-day-glory-of-her+love. - -Mosquitoes attracted to blood sugar have been shown to provide free nutrients to high-glycemic, diabetic mice. It was also memorable a few years ago when flies in a petri dish had to tap and bounce themselves up staircase after staircase, in hopes of keeping their balance. - -But our research is not quite this simple. Some studies well argue that our blood pressure is not being driven by metabolic devaluation of the body's acquired physiology. One such study shows that blood pressure is influenced by central regulators, countering the exasperation of modeled scaling! While rotation may explain a good bit of physiological problem of oedema and dilated cells, it can not account for some potential functions. For example, doing a graveyard shift repetitively over a long period of time (figured by Godzilla) goes without saying for blood pressure, but it would be surprising for the system to become completely "brain-dead". One thing is becoming evident: our stem cells are superior to all the described theories, in terms of usefulness of blood-pressure-control "essence". - -Intent on the study of the origins of brain, portraits of medicines scare us despite the email address: dredman@dredman.net. - -A hundred years ago, our empath sprang upwards from Jamaica. Under compartments of ongoing preventable deaths and precancerous growths, she may have appeared to have been at peace. She was, at least until the very moment when a jico jumped on was pinned down and erupted. From then on, she was very difficult to recover from problems. The only persons able to defeat Concernedseatgardens4296 quickly became the world's adventurer class. The nerves in Jamaicans on stance-holds started to claim our role-models, lowering our ballot representation. - -So, what has happened to our empath? - -Similar to the alleged immobility of tarantula in the film "Jurassic Park", a researcher at our school witnessed an escaper walking uphill towards them, presumably under a promise of an "on-ground surprise". The figure, about 10 m tall, surrounded by innocent looking teenagers heads, strolled towards them at a run. Flip open the shutter, peak of your attempt unspool and the moment ends. His corpse and all his clothing were set in the forest, his body silhouetted against waves. - -It turned out that he was the researcher, the very same one who looked to be very uncertain of the risks involved in specializing in a disgusting profession. Observing the alternation between elation and the rage produced by the campaigner, we got it from a first-person place that he was blinded since a very young age by the tragic situation of first Tlaloc in Mexico, separated from the jungle by the bridge, and later enriched by French Sea contact – more plantations and 400 million people would follow in the medium term by hasty importations. We were happy to share it with you since we were reminded that there was more than one yewleaf pollinating an early hectare. - -Immediately, we placed for the first time the portrait of a food Scientist in a plate of poultry, each rotor tacitly forced sailing 2standardshitlengthlib stories downhill toward impossible heights. As we protected him from ridicule actions, we loved him greatly for his "maiden voyage" from Brooklyn Brooklyn Brooklyn to ....

Based on numerous three-dimensional changes, an unexpmcit pig was processed by vision, with legs of successive width, accompanied by animals moving on the ceiling with the head of each tail at the same height. And now we've decided to experiment with the hvng as only the foremost branch of the bellage can, meanwhile navigating the unknown lunar surface, subtending the though processes of night #2619026 -======================================== SAMPLE 354 ======================================== -A small and extremely durable CVH roller coaster that's guaranteed to thrill you at every turn. - -As the name suggests, the HQTD Rocket is housed mostly inside of the indoor section (with a bit of outdoor option). There are two opportunities to create ride opportunities at HQTD Rocket. First, a series of four 360 degree turns that end at the traditional two piece actual train track. Second, another series of full rotations end at the station. - -The emphasis in the VR experience on these trains being part of an attraction has been very well done. You get a very good feeling for what roller coaster trains look like, feel like, and are made of. - -The two seemingly fictional models in the QR Atlas, and two cars you can interact with themselves include: - -The Skullcar - -The Juniorizol, meaning Junior Rocket - -There are two vehicles available for the HQTD Rocket, and though only one model of train was released, they're both unique artworks and collectibles. The tanker truck will be available until 2017 and the tank will be available until 2018. It won't cost you a dime to acquire the tanks (adult, etc.) so order today and save size. - This is an extremely high quality coaster that's well worth every penny. - -(Check out the Oscar Sanders Link below!

Rice said Tuesday that the timing is not right, "particularly with the death of one American today in a tragic error in their captivity." But she added, in a statement issued by the White House late Tuesday, that "there are other pressing matters at hand, which I will address in the days ahead." - -Republicans and Mr. Obama have declined to go into details about the negotiations -- reached after two months of indecision on whether to address the political damage of the slayings -- but Ms. Rice said they amounted to a promise from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to take responsibility for the Americans' release and return them "within 15 days or we will in fact take them prisoner." Ms. Rice said she would speak to President Obama this week about the interim period. - -Among a number of everything-but-the-tenders options, the P5+1 envisages the enemy holding the Americans in return for relief from economic sanctions and lifting of crippling oil embargoes. Asked about the veracity of the word "enemy," Mr. Kerry said later in the phone call, "I know there are – I'm aware of opposition on the part of the Iranians, who I understand say they love Americans. But that cannot stretch my credulity. We met on this. This is something Susan keeps talking to me about. When the situation gets to a point where people up here say, `Do we keep the exception for Americans?' it makes sense on two accounts." - -Secretary Kerry's remarks followed his prepared remarks to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Tuesday. He acknowledged discussions are ongoing but declined to offer more specifics on the Americans' fate. - -"Discussions you have with foreign governments are always in process. There is no agreement in place. It's not an agreement.. . . I have no ability to assert that when I talked to the prime minister, that he committed to the quickest terms," he said. - -Asked whether Congress will take up the matter and sign off on some type of a deal, Secretary Kerry politely noted it was now a matter of the "circumstances" and why both sides have agreed to hold off until potential Islamic endpoints present themselves. - -"What is happening now -- let's call it where it is. It was a very heavy lifting effort, with both sides. It was one of those things where, I speak to John every week or so, and he speaks to me almost every day. There is no agreement, and we worked to try to try to expand the scope of what we could discuss, and it became very nebulous over the next 2 or 3 weeks. We worked to try to work around our belief that no money has been exchanged for the release of these hostages. We kept the prisoner because that's exactly the kind of thing we wanted to preserve," he said. - -In his prepared remarks, Mr. Kerry avoided mentioning Tehran's custody of hostages in America, nor did he discuss the nuclear dispute between the United States and the Islamic Republic, where he served as an assistant secretary of state before landing his current post as the nation's top diplomat. - -Referring to Iran's apparent intentions of rapidly negotiating with the United States "until it has heard from its invisible interlocutor in Washington as to the conditions?" Mr. Kerry responded, "That makes total sense. Where are we right now? No agreement. It would be a real shame to see our relationship be damaged over this kind of an issue. Over what we believe is something almost dependency building by the Other. Who's in us and who's in the Other? Not exactly cordial and friendly, which would be at the heart of great partnerships that are formed in circumstances where we cannot agree on a solution." - -U.S. and Iranian officials met on Sunday at the former U.S. Embassy in Tehran, sources provided to Middle East Eye, where their conversations continued Tuesday with -======================================== SAMPLE 356 ======================================== -This post originally appeared in AlterNet. - -Every day you spend staring at a computer screen involves sitting right next to people doing similar things. You consider who works for who, whether that employee is male or female, whether the company has contractors doing a task in a small town or for your big, blue-chip tech giant in Wyoming. You don't have to spend any real time being immersed in being too busy clutching onto your coffee table to make space for Sheldon Cooper's sigh. Truth be told, you're heaving this coffee over now, after your recruiter swills your stack of underperforming Open Run monopolizable any the past month or two. - -There are about 100 million Americans who work who wrote a personal email or LinkedIn post expressing feelings of female empowerment on their personal Momentums (note the femme pronouns). Folks, those are women. Inside your inbox on the other hand are men who didn't even go to class last semester based on a personal blog that had no logic or depth for an explanation of why this blogger should want a promotion for the first time since she was a teenager in upstate South Carolina as a motorcycle athletic scholarship winner. - -I should know, I am one of those who crossed over the divide deciding to not graduate from college for 18 straight years. Instead of producing either a sensible think piece or the first person account in the Economic Journal of the United Kingdom on the topic, blogging and writing about the concept of leadership in Iraq for an official government publication, I am a meme! Something the rape culture lobby loves specifically. Hit me hard in the face with a club like every other guy and I'm your girl. - -Why isn't it my cup of peace when men use social media to assert and copywrite unrealistic (read: "manipulative") authority on their social networks? See — that was blurry — I need to shut up while I bath this poor person in a bullet going subzero temperature and add 600 pounds of fat! Wow, sometimes I feel like the Deputy Reporters' Committee of Correspondents. I mean, I get press but I haven't watched The Red Cross Home Front Disaster into Princeton, Oklahoma 2017 in September 2017. I want my name in the Times For Wolves, Too! ("So -- It Still Happens … To Women?"), or at least to Somewhere Else in a Congressional Hearing, because it's totally the business of Congress to spy on what domestic-violence advocates are saying, yet, so, so few of them choose to do it. - -That American girls and women who display the effects of "Boys Will Be Boys" in regards to the survival of their family and themselves can hit hard and finally get over their "problems?" Absurd. Every day by all means shun daily calorie-laden Instagram posts of perecemy, cornbread casserole. But if you aren't sharing nearly as much as men drop into cube-shaped ice trays as the lowest point in American capitalism, it's your voice just slightly out of whack and in the borders of contrition. - -I was going to let Yahoo's hateful vandalist continue prosper ineffectively, but I am the last of my human kind.

On Monday, the five liberal justices agreed to uphold Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act, which has required nine states and 13 localities with a history of racial discrimination to get the federal government's approval before changing their voting laws. - -In December 2015, a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit struck down Section 5 of the Act. Section 5 creates a list of voting rights checkpoints for other jurisdictions that have a history of racial discrimination — generally paying presidentially appointed representatives to negotiate deadlines for making changes in voting laws. These checkpoints offer protections for voters with a number of special, for-profit voting rights concerns. This list is pretty persuasive evidence that exactly one jurisdiction — Alabama — has an entitlement to protect black voting rights. - -This decision was about remedies for the states on this list, not the beneficiaries. - -In April 2016, the Supreme Court agreed to hear the case of Shelby County v. Holder, in which a three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit found the prescribed penalty for certain much-maligned voter-restricting voting laws unconstitutional, largely invalidating what FairVote dubbed "The Little Rock Nine." Largely read, the ruling in Shelby was a victory for state legislatures, allowing them to make changes to elections without the approval of federal officials. Section 6 of the Voting Rights Act stops jurisdictions on the list from changing their voting laws without approval from Justice Department. This, in turn, suffices for Section 5, though the conditions that date back long to the end of Jim Crow cannot be left out. - -In Monday's order, the five Solicitor General nominees — as well as one nominee from the Democrat-dominated Senate and one from the Republican-controlled House — were given marked-to-normal votes. As Stephen Yale-Loehr of Harvard University explains on Medium, this means they will likely still proceed with filibusters or votes before the Senate flubs its part of the approval process. "Under the Supreme Court's determination in summer that it would have to get the vote of at least eight of the Justices before denying that step, any recess appointments made by the Senate would be subject to strict scrutiny and could be reviewed by the Justice Department," he writes. As Marcy Wheeler writes in Bloomberg Businessweek, Clinton won't have the say. - -In its order today, the Supreme Court meeting also sided with Wyoming against its volunteer counties ,letting the former take its case to the Supreme Court.

During vajrang's time, Taotie did not exist and vajrang only lived there for 0 years. This implies that during this time they had nothing to do with Taotie. The Taotie Clan existed, but they were in a perpetual state of chaos.

Visa card terms & conditions are easier for victims of fraud to cancel instead of having to repair damage to credit; other permission forms are poignant for credit establishments to keep.Requiring individuals — can be banks or credit reporting agencies — to name supporting evidence when credit reporting agencies deny opportunities for bankruptcy or full relief from liens.

The atmosphere has become so toxic in Utah with about a dozen lawsuits filed between 2007 and now, one of the key bosses of the church is stepping down, and social media attacks against the church continue. - -This weekend, as a part of the worldwide annual General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, its new First Presidency will open proceedings on a despised topic: mixed-race "diamond" kept as a household pet in some congregations today. Instead of pondering Jesus's admonition that prodigal sons return to the banks of the River Jordan and "return no more away," the day's proceedings will simply take place and presently under a made-for-controlling scripting that will discuss only the general congregation's sectarian vote to permit such a mixed-race pet being kept as a pet. - -Fun fact: While handling a bidding for the diamond, ex-employees deemed causing teen pregnancy would comply with proposed guidelines, or be excommunicated from the church. Apparently the diamonds didn't turn out that well, either -- the rocky plum, containing immature pearls, were sold off to satisfy legal settlement fees. It was the first diamond auction of any kind at all at applicant Reagan Faul Rockccor 44 and later that year, it sold of rare aluminum rocks, very different from today's common rocks. It's a gem then, for one the Church has never protected. - -Of course, there was nothing accidental about whatever happened to that precious gift in our Church's possession. The previous First Presidency who reviewed its existence and value as a literal family creation, running the church as a corporate entity and not simply as a corporation adhering to underpinnings in scripture, had made clear that any figure involved in the ceremony, direct or proxy, would be subsequently excommunicated. Senior directives plainly showed this reference very carefully crafted missive, not mass published as some viral piece like the rape of Mariani. It was, sirs, the Third Section of Doctrine and Covenants contained within the 1886 papyri and included within the ethics of 1842 which allowed priests to baptize blacks. - -The wording clearly outlined these unspecified protocols and the issues brought forth ruffled any feathers of the very few relatively moderate leaders of the church at the time, Paul Toscano and Henry Eyring. Their dissension of line naturally aroused the First Presidency-dominated General Conference and their apprehensive tapes later play in a temple, the sealing of the 12 months of hidden lives before one's mother, a piece shown here for the first time, were ready to give birth. Things weren't looking good then, since one likely struggle was how a licensed pharmacist like Eyring could ever want to lead the creation of such an exalted artifact -- particularly when Galileo would have been charged under the same guidelines. Although when placed in context, many of the standards involved were much more non-radical than befitting Pusey tapping in a laboratory for research, or home schooling your daughter. Strangely, all would curtail science's development in the remaining years of the nineteenth century in their dictums and policies. - -Ironically, a sermon was read that June 1856 at Mountain Meadows in southern Utah concerning religious invocations honoring our founding fathers and no less than twelve men of renown in history had obeyed the First Presidency clearly, including James Edward Meares of the U.S. Congress, William Seward of Congress, Thomas Jefferson, Archibald MacLeish of the U.S. Senate, "Erecto," "General" Wayne of the 2nd Louisiana Cavalry, Samuel Floyd of the 2nd Highland Light Infantry, George Pegram of the untested Methodists. - -Presently, ladies' garment contracts are not even allowed to resemble the time honored practices of the earliest sects -- those very words by Church President Brigham Young, September 12, 1873, as quoted in the recently released documentary film From the Fringe, puts Utah's (born in 1970 and now solidly against the dominant view) challenge this way: "But depressing in its dispensers racism proof, points out the un-Christian idea of using precious bodily treasure by evil beings for a surplus of heathenism irresponsibly tried and unwisely attempted". - -Diary of Bridget Persons, October 6, 1970 To whom it may concern... - -14.10 to 12 midnight.

This article can be found online on Rawviews.com, as WWE's athletes aren't so well paid. A media outlet revealed how many veteran WWE stars earn per minute compared to those wrestlers in Major League Baseball, with the smallest WWE roster earners delivering more premium pay under NXT brand. - -Rumors about WWE's poorer royalty paid to top performers have been surfacing recently, by On Media, WWE Superstars, Talk Is Jericho and others. In March, WWE's WWE Legendary pay was pinpointed by the website, to be around $1 on average per minute delivered. That was 5 times lower than Major League Baseball, two days after MLB Superstars revealed their pay to fans: $1.25 per tweet for a 30-second video piece (published by FanSided), Russo Brothers had tweeted Subaru Prius concepts to publisher signsability from that money one month earlier. - -Another website refers to the WWE royalty as 1/72th of what MLB MLB superstars earn for every minute at third base exclusively, with WWE "stars" getting even less, ranging from $0.0053 to $0.02. Now, as for WWE's celebrity stars, WWE stars do not play on the same level of baseball talent and didn't in their first contract. - -Let's examine the structures of WWE's stars compared to MLB's above, per the FanSided article mentioned above, WWE stars earned $5,799.96 to cover production (mechanisms included) of the MLB champion per minute of work. Lesnar's rest demanding highlight allowed the WWE to pay an average of "only" $401.44 for every minute of work. Former WWE Champion CM Punk usually has a contract worth a combined $600,000.00 for a combined a career earnings of $7.998 million dollars. ATP quarter-finalist David Haskins probably has the best contract out of all WWE stars. - -Aside from the pay structure (which differs from case to case) WWE stars tend to be in a handsome reg than top MLB superstar per minute. Juan Enrique, a Canadian stand up comic practicing for a decade can perform at a club owned by Bobby Bristow, and explains especially how underpaid he must have been to make a living, in addition to his audience of performers. - -Showcase Card Opinion: I have to acknowledge that Vince McMahon is more inclined to move the business to Monday Night Raw on week nights than to Wednesday nights for shows in the summer (wages of moiety jumps and transfers differ times of, by a long shot), which he only imports by night, because Oprah is the obvious choice for Ripoff of the Week. But, that commentator Joel Engel and the step-by-step details of filming and production are usually vague, even to the viewers, reflect the studio-viewpoint of Mark Burnett on the vast difference between WWE Main Events and primetime television. One can count: per minute, war of words vs. bull beating, 30-second-potes vs. 45-second-presents and relationships can be broken down in into three minutes, but live action presentation and half-and-half placement it's 60 minutes (most have taken back turns, and some divisions do not go live on time), last show on USA for Billions, has produced each week a series of chances for a plug, and there are few Marvel storylines involving of Sting or HHH, or the format of the Last Man Standing, over-time in the last 60 minutes of WrestleMania Sunday.

That would be short of the $13,847,969 guaranteed as a starter, per Spotrac. And this week's cap number — $125.5 million, according to OverTheCap.com — was even lower than the $126.8 million that quarterbacks earned in 2013. - -The 49ers have other shiny new-car options.

"There is a growing perception – particularly among young people and women in particular [wrong] – that real privacy is protected at the cost of an inflated 'publicity score'," Warren claimed in his lawsuit against Facebook's Games Platform on Oct. 4. "Only a direct, physical interaction between the person being stung and someone he or she knows could provide an adequate measure of privacy, or a sense that the offending floridifying conduct has little impact: that public perception must be changed." Warren created a fake account and claimed to be "Dan Marshall", a 48-year-old British Army Major who opposed the war in Afghanistan before being posted to the fence to die. The Facebook page currently carries the logo, picture and name of Marshall and this post: "On 26 Nov 2011 Troopslyche 12 Mountain Division – Corps Commander 2 Dst and 6 CFII (Brigade 'K',' men of Dekalb') welcomed back the souls of defeat with a plaudit- - -sium and a puff of pride." The "trailer" to Marshall's planned memoirs posted to the page on Aug. 21 had drawn 3,256 likes at the time it was deleted last week. Warren claims to have taken his own "white lie" personally, telling his own family in the next-to-last post, "They do not go very well with orange toilet paper, and one can see why. They sure are embarrassing, though." Another post on Marshall's fourth group, The Princess Costique had a picture in which a bottle of Evian water could be seen gleaming in the light of an Elbit Ultra Fire Hose firing in the background. The 'Trailer' to that particular 'group' was on the third page of the Facebook page, with a picture of Elbit's Uzi Mk 2 below. Warren claimed that almost all of the 'likes' used to promote Marshall's profiles came 'via touch screen, and purported to come from Facebook profiles of one or more human audiences, rather than being organized distributed by their elements.' This, according to Warren, was 'stunting.' He allegedly identified himself as 'Mike Warren', a professional subscription brochure writer and 'e-consultant' when he uploaded his fake profile to the June 2013 Survivor page, then proceeded to set up his own fake production company website and initiate a failed account building scam to lure 'trailers' from prospective writers. The suicide siege at Marja in Sitka in June 2013, also co-incided with Marshall's attempts to get their literary piece published. Warren founded an online determing firm just three days after his famous profile was created. Warren is part of a growing number of psychologists, doctors, lawyers, military leaders, demonologists, spiritual healers and other self-identified experts venturing into the spotlight to mock the stigma and false realities generated by social media. He has dedicated a long thesis and a half dozen lawsuits to making the world aware of this growing movement which aims to bring fans' trust back to amazing works of art and short crafts. Lilyara Danehenaute, a 'cognitiude consultant' who recommends alternative therapies in modern Australia who recently crossed the pond is attracting a lot of eyeballs or 'likes' on her personal Facebook page and her group page is called 'Marjana' and online she has a brother by the name 'Mike Chevy' and a rather minus-PsaxIV-looking version of his twin sister's picture that is his 'fave' on his page. Lilyara admitted she was a crossbreed but identified herself as part Celtic, Australian Stars and Red Platers and part English Illustrator and hte interview she did with 8 Eyes 'International News' was referenced multiple times in her autobiographical page – sparked leading advertising companies to place 'special' search queries at 9 Eyes.

There will likely be something new every week or so, as much as they want to keep it consistent.And apparently also, an interdimensional desert planet in the process of being discovered, named "Gangwon."Drops to be bought between lobby drop and same-site drops and between planets fall into the following categories :Subsumption of Zealous Granaucracy, Weapons of Need and Despotism, Gift of Wisdom, Binding of Preservation and Reality TechnologyNo. No special order !!!BCT has good inventory management and some VERY big chests:Since it should be slightly random on spawn, will likely be holdover from Beta.The smalls could be sent through GTP as boxes, as has been stated before.No, don't get me started on where too many people collected and sold togeher sheep and vast garbage piles at none desparate grinds.

Following a five-year hiatus, an all-new, all-women-focused version of the classic single-hiker, dubbed the Poptail Mile, has taken over the world of the unique, one-of-a-kind Poptail. Featuring all-female trail crews—including women and children,, all of whom put in an incredible amount of time building this incredible, one-of-a-kind feature. - - -Now, the Freeskiing magazine recently took a first-hand look at these Trail Women at Mount Baldy this year discovering what it's like to be a Trail Woman! - -All photos courtesy of Freeskiing issue 012 - -The Poptail Mile - -First introduced in 2001 by Bugeye, known as Brink, the Poptail is a single-hiker, fueled solely by food and water. The idea was born when well-known competitive skier, Chris Rajewski, spec'd out a frame and broke the 60 mile mark not long after his original design in one day on it. A short guide on the product itself can be found on its website: http://www.bugeye.com/ip/poptail/ - -According to this article in the current Freeskiing magazine, the Poptail is best known for its single length: 200m (656'). - -Originally the Poptail was used by surfers and on tight twisty, multi-pitch lines, such as that found at Alta, that need minimal technical setup with little or no cross-benching. But now thanks to its popularity that is quickly expanding it's usefulness within the extreme mountain recreation community. Step by step the Poptail Mile is grown into a real mountain sport! - -Photo credit for now: People to bike with (sample pic from Jumpers) - -The Poptail Mile First Standard - -Fast forwarding to this past summer we got in a quick call and went to meet the Trail crews at Mt Baldy at the impact of the Poptail. Although it was like any other group of thru-tripping ROCKS amongst them, just like any other crew DREW, FI, and BINK would love to have at the trail the next few months. So back to the beginning! - -When Bugeye and the Trail Crew first started planning the new poptail it took all this sweat, anxieties and concern for time management and fundraising to deliver just one. While it likely took a toll on the previous mountain women's crew victims of weather the concern for the presence of multiple Poptails and the ability to execute each leg at the optimal time obviously took the toll on their mental state as they expressed above their first mission to break the style record at Alta, "we were pretty much more focused on proving demonstration technology and Austin Jones skidded off the bottom of a deep chute and nearly knocked the runner over while being reprimanded by a backup crew crew because we couldn't have Austin Jones skid to his death forty-five stock denims deep down a mountain. 🙂 - -Our morality, designs, and overall concept had taken a wholesale dump from racing out of Mt. Baldy and Rachel McKee feels its best to remember the important little idea that really separated the two poptails… So we continued all of this with one Poptail and 3 more in help of Flutter and Steve's story is a great testimony to the effort (more on Steve, please be assured we are not stealing this ideas and what he had to say…?) - -America's Road to Adventure - -Rachel McKee & Dave Colburn - -Way up the mountain sweeping a clarinet. - -First time riders like Dave Colburn were continually asked what made the trail so unique.

So far, that's exactly what's happened to 20 allegedly flying drones, some of which were impounded.The incident has exposed the FAA's failure to address a new generation of highly sophisticated, unregulated drones. Even though police do not have the authority to interfere with aircraft, the law generally prevents them from interfering with unmanned aircraft."Scary stuff" is how Dennis Merges—SFPD drone coordinator and officer in charge of the front-line drones —started off his performance."It's an educational event and it's a lesson in safety, it's "Are you gonna fly in the region on Friday? Are you gonna fly in the airspace over the San Francisco Bay there?"," he lectured.That's what Merges learned from one pilot, who piloted an unlicensed, the astonishing portal of execution listed in the manufacturer's specifications.In his performance, Merges warns humans on the ground the SFPD want them to be away from drones, not in the range or hovering around gnat's layer Wednesday, Feb. 11, 2016 at Petco Park in San Francisco, Calif. Is it too late to get the FAA to hear you?By Miquel Andrade/San Francisco Chronicle via APAlthough no criminal charges have been filed against the pilots or police department for the Dec. 10 incident, the FAA's focus on community involvement seems to be working as the police have removed the restricted drone devices from local skies. In late January 2016, a federal appeals court ruled against the FAA's attempt to form a regional website to locate using drones.The FAA maintains it's enforcing definition of adhered to by authorities in every U.S. jurisdiction. Police conduct warrantless autopsies and hoover too,, in the incident have caused some critics of police militarization to consider a question standing in the way of drone proliferation—do police need to have the authority to kill us with explosives in order to patrol our skies?Now that Gaining Ground Fortis Helicopters, the first to fly the CH-47 Chinook helicopter, powered with United Parachute, at the edge of Fort Moore, a piece of San Francisco's wealthiest neighborhood, through neighborhoods as wild as Malaga, Lakeshore, and Twin Peaks. Most Bay Area residents have a visceral reaction to aircraft which they see as foreign invaders expanding their military dominance over our skies and in our homes. Some view it as outlandish that evildoers are up to their malevolency in pilfering the Federal status quo in military drones and controlling, enslaving, killing, and stuffing our communities with cheap imported labor.Yet the inevitability of military drones impacting domestic airspace is just one of many ways in which our entanglement with drone technology threatens most everyone on planet Earth.Before we dive -======================================== SAMPLE 377 ======================================== -Save money you.rugby.

Whether they're Skype's example of a "war room" type environment, or that other obscure protocol called "Transit Chat" (which, I hear, plays a huge role in EasyScout or WWOOF, if that's any indication) these are the protocols responsible for running the time-outs and searching session logs without communicating with the other developers, but that is a discussion for a separate article. Today, let's just find out what ChatOps REALLY is. - -What is ChatOps, really? - -We're letting our gremlins out - -As we've learned from Kevin King's presentation last month, Phrases like "thinking like an industrial-military enterprise will mean thinking like a ChatOps company," are incredibly useful reminders to think about your organization with a blockchain mindset. - -In other words, if you were playing a virtual FPS in a city filled with zeppelins or at SpringboardBid, Sia, or any of the SaaS providers that know ChatOps, your ability to work, collaborate, and teach employees quickly through products that are built to communicate (and even brain cancerily) easily with its environment could be rewarded with quality-of-life overtime! - -Think about it these ways: - -A high-level chat workspace supports the highest line density since green screens, pagerlike terminals, or hotpacks were introduced in the '80's. In the early days of an organization's branding (think: Honeywell), a flagship, multi-user type room allows devs to brainstorm well, gamers to play server of up to 5, and admins to collaborate on ideas. - -End-users can use this infrastructure to codeload within and organize workflows between their teams and internal sources, allowing latency the result when coordinating them throughout the jungle of distributed systems. - -Beyond purely great communication, Teams working together in the same chat room penetrate walls and rooms between implementation teams. (Communications and logistics come from Operations,) but are fun for dev teams to use too! It is chaos implementation! - -During panic management, each team on a floor will have a fixed account in one room or the other so that critical logs of virtual shipyard mingling can be captured and live distributed to templated knowledge repositories. - -Increasing degrees of competitive FPS action simultaneously contribute to creative chaos and up-front learning streams on all relevant tiers of the organization. There's continuous improvement in game competitiveness -- more green screens, pagerlike interfaces, hot pools, launchers, pagers, every level of dev promotion enabled, chaos implementation beginning. - -The advantages of ChatOps reached their apotheosis when a virtual team occupied the BBC, MTV, and other great sanctums of cultural legacy broadcast media. (Metaphorical capacity things!) - -The problem of communication - -Fair enough! Pretty incredible ways to communicate within and constitute an organization. - -ChatOps will have a huge range of application: The efficiencies offered under that new in-house advancement correlated to the new "common good" shift from definition all through blockchain and better communication which are the killer apps. A competition topology without barriers with shared databeds, schedules, and cycles -- and a range of services that facilitate sharing. - -We can see that mobile HR-level via -======================================== SAMPLE 380 ======================================== -Photo ID requirement: Alopta about to exceed 40 Colorado newspapers Sunday, Jan. 13, 3 p.m. after the first U.S. primary week. - -Alaskan Baseball Record Without Carol Alphys, Wheeler On scrappy record Lawyer subpoenas Alaskan role Sunken credit By Vernon Chow Russell County Clerk I'd like to have another try.

First of all, Alphys wrote Crystal and Divina in February of 1970, on the day we received the accusations, which is correct, and that was written by Louise Alphys. Secondly, she revised the record books in 1977. Let me go over again because this is important. Dr. Constance Alphys isn't believed to be involved with the Catholic Church or have any connection, any other connection to both the newspaper Connecticut Post, as well as the psychiatric village center at Deering, where both Mabel (Vernon Chow) and Frank Constance lived. Both women had false records. "We have no reason to believe that Frank Constance was involved in the lead poisoning or the smoking/arson accident, or his sister Sheila was involved in both," says Dr. Norman F. Larkin, administrator of the Six State Psychiatric Institute as well as a clinical psychologist. For some reason, however, she wrote in the record book that Sharon Hill wrote to her. It's unclear if her sister that she wrote to Sharon Hill was really Sheila. According to Dr. Larkin, Sheila filed paperwork in March of1972 saying she was No. 2. -But what about those false IDs? Loudon believes that in order to expedite the outcome of Sharon's claim, Frank Constance likely simply cooperated with the state. "But Frank might have been brilliant, so he didn't write her back." Q: But why would Alphys agree to have someone else write her and report her as being "No. 2" instead of her own real mother when she knew that her daughter knew her real mother had suddenly died? "I after Sheila died, something don't seem right about her record. I'm going to go back and check it with her sister, but I don't believe she wrote in January and January of 1977. (assume it's February of '77)." FedExes to Sara Chaisson Within weeks of Sharon's death, a concerned Bradshaw received a FedEx utility bill informing her that Sara Chaisson had decided to file a claim with the Social Security Administration. According to calls placed to Sara's mother and brother at the time, Sara was still living in Rockaway, N.M. Why hadn't she previously trusted Atlanta authorities to file the claim? ""I don't trust the day‑help mascot subpoena is here, my brother assigned photoie, Senator when his bill is settled, and country home on the horizon," Gunnery Chaisson said. "I had a hundred‑dollar bill to come by the president. I did get directions to the city where the Helena hospital was, but he wouldn't accept my landline fax and I couldn't get to my brother .... So I had stenographers with me and ran up to WDFAA 30 times just to try to get somebody to call me and take me to where the money was." A third brother, Parkway said, "Due to heavy teeth grinding from his dentures, Corey got fractures in each of his feet, and proud Austin tradition dictates that all wines must be served with cheesecloth video fed regular needles, with each injecting the wine twice with one foot into the other every time they finished piercing their wine at cork. Corey, then, had personalized computerized needles strapped to each fænce by Weekly what many consider the first vitamin​ B​ri​ ​compliance​ therapists, prior to eradication. So his foot capsules filled with the evening's champagne bombs had been dusted with clary sage to make it void of any penny or CO2 effects while following protocol." "We found out that day‑help mascot subpoena is here, all my wife did was call and bring us cinophonics. It sold flat.

Many are private citizens of no political party, so they may have hoped to recoup the money from a future auction of their possessions, while others may have lacked the resources to continue protecting themselves. In any case, congressional fundraisers may have curryced political favors with crony markets for consulting work. But improper payments are minor side issues compared to the bigger issue of congressional corruption. When former conference chairmen voted in March 2001 to get help from prosecutors in a criminal investigation into an executive function-related contract, they elbowed aside everyday people who requested the help. Fewer than 15 percent of these under-resourced members of the congressional conference, in addition to many others in the House, Senate and White House, is to blame for their colleagues' problems. -He imposed a $200,000 cap on the congressional hospital research programs. Compared to other members of Congress, at least one ill person contacted his or her representatives claiming that the cap was imposed to "make medical expenses low." In some cases, it appeared that the Congressmen and Congresswomen enforced the cap arbitrarily. His cap is even more severe than the members of Congress who voted to impose the 50 percent cap. The Government Accountability Office reports that among 100 families controlled by ill minorities, the current expenditures of severely debilitating or fatal illnesses exceed $14 billion annually. Over 90 percent of these impoverished families strictly could not afford urgent and desperately needed medical care offered by the state, not to mention it being considered inhumane to limit dangerous illnesses straightforwardly to 50 percent spending. Eighty-one short of the cap, the Congressional Budget Office concluded that it adds disproportionately to health care costs. Oh, most Americans comprehend this. The one else is author. Sam Butler -University of Washington<|endoftext|>Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) has been exploring a new way to be a shock jock, and it appears he actually has the best ideas for the show. Senator Paul, a Republican who just happened to be the junior U.S. senator from Kentucky upon whom Thomas Stout adapted his novel "That Obscure Object of Desire," had a column published today on The Washington Times's website. There Paul lays out his ideas about the ideal way to argue for libertarian government. Suck it Ronald. - - -Health care drives spending. However, if we also want food and shelter and clothing and actual contentment and friends and self and love and health insurance, why would we not also have access to banking, food stamps, and housing and education programs. That wouldn't make a tiny-sliver of people into pointy-eared aristocrats as we saw with the Egyptians in the book "It's a Wonderful Life." Maybe it's better metaphorically to think of personal responsibility as a float in a spaghetti western river that's too shallow for the infringement of one's rights. - -The twist states, "If you take 6 percent of the population and give them all the characteristics of ordinary people, like having a job, getting health insurance, having a home, and getting old gracefully, the people are going to lead just numbingly unimaginative lives. Imagine going to a dinner party and being able to let everyone know, "Oh! We're somewhere not too far from an I.Q. test anyway or a nap room for old people, and don't worry, more U.S. soldiers are coming soon!" This person would not be particularly happy — they would probably begin giggling and the rest of the adults would also sit up and say, "Who's this lunatic?!" But with the 400 people floating it would still sound healthy." - -He imagines people think of him as a strongman type, suggesting his test will bring about unconditional government, which is "random outcomes" not authority, for creating you are better than not you. Peter Schiff will now cheer Paul's mix of Peter Schiff, free markets, and adolescent humor, as the Italian nihilists likely would have. - -OK, to the question: Remember your kindergarden? It was a doozy. Schools teach about social justice, with the fascinating idea that you receive a grade for how you did, as if it were some kind of magic four-month pipeline. One mom told her son right after his second period no-excuses detention that the boy had not performed well. That mom was subjected to a cascade of indignities including the school nurse's visible displeasure. Doesn't the OK term for this kind of thing, "parenting," come to mind? Being patrolled by government agents — in this case, smiling police officers and ankle monitors, given confiscatory powers to detain one's children. What else would you call it? I refer you to Cohen Spector's This Speaketh of Children, where -======================================== SAMPLE 383 ======================================== -Baby Wants a Drink? - -Drinking — and the face-to-face kind — is obviously always best among a growing pile of reasons parents that should lead to baby stimulating that time wisely. Throughout the first 60 days, during which time your child will drink two–three glasses of juice and sip on a pint of food every other day, you can make sure that your little one has a good time and drinks a lot of fluids to keep their bodies fully hydrated. But as you'd expect, changing this can have big implications on how your tiny CraftShare drinking buddy heaves during the sleep period. - -We're not going to hammer every system in baby's body (and early parents for that matter) here, but there are some types of cues anti-hydration parents should be aware of. - -1. Ultraviolet Light - -The amount of UV light affects your pee early on because in the first 60 days of life, your baby's skin is the thinnest after delivery. As a result, your baby will temporarily lose body heat. That means your baby will need to drink in the early years in order to stay warm, when peeing is not required. So in the first likeliness you just might want to call a dermatologist. Be advised, people who are familiar with the signs of preterm labor should also generally avoid engaging in low voltage light applications to their youngster. - -2. Flushes - -The communication medium blood vessels carry urine can't be a factor here, per se … unless, of course, you're pregnant and and without sanitation skills. - -3. Circuit Therapy Routine - -This kind of procedure is when peristalsis is stimulated by a pacemaker or by a timer and the patient is drained of 4 liters of blood daily for a 45 minute set. This can be invasive and can not only be painful given the child may require multiple procedures, it can negatively affect the life of little hands without the right training. - -4. Dangers of Nookie - -This is one of the more interesting absentee drinking behaviors infant Cocklords can hopefully practice from cuddling on the couch to nursing bottle spooning. There are a lot of negative side effects of letting your baby or toddler ingest any amount of this sugary stuff. 22oz-32oz a day is an posted guideline for many and in fact we've found that those that follow that schedule for their infants are more hydrated (thanks to 3X as much fluids) the second they express a wet tear. - -5. Don't be Afraid to Let Them Drink Janice from Watch What Happens, says it took her visits to doctor's and had mommy swap styrofoam cups after wiggling her head to get baby to drink.

Simply don't turn your back on your baby; they'll usually develop a bone coming up if you don't.

He turned it over in his hands, and then rubbed passed it back and forth between his palms and looked excitedly into the glazed prism of an incandescent oil-lamp ranging clockwise from the innermost end of the grand table. Over his shoulder he could see Christineitch basting the apprentice in pig's fat. And at that moment he met the lold-faced knight, Hubert. "Is that Schroeder Malfoy?" he said, qualifying the question. After a moment the knight bent his head consideringly. "I told your daughter that he was a good scholar," he said at length. "Of course no man shall ever know his own work—only you. And not for a few years, at any rate." He cursed, hung up his basin, and thrown him a cup of tea. "I see," he said, "that you have something to say to me." "I cannot. But, though much moved, I shall have to decline to answer. And, indeed, I have not the forethought to do anything rash. But it may be that you have a point; for you have handled the situation like a conquering army. Entre N, Mesknakhia N.0.75114 М." A moment later a marble, hil- len cup, crumpled in its holder. The knight eyed it with querulous peblen at the edge of his map; from which shewed that groups of figures fixed themselves humbly in the mountains of green valleys, while weedy ridges radiated from the mass of shadowed granite, and little pools formed in the vestiges of ruined lakes. And then, with nervous concern for the piece on the table, he went on: "The War of the Two Towers is a continent on the face of this world. The Elves still claim it in its rightful place, on the Other Side . . . but man knows better. The Seven Kingdoms have one kingdom alone, Hûd, in which strength is assured. Not long ago Nazgûl fought and vanquished the dream-land of Númenor, destroyed the noble city of Minas Ithil. And there they parted. Gil-galad returned in boats to Gondor . . . and now the Wainriders and our remaining campaigns prepare to bypass that rock and place ourselves at the gates of Gondor." "If successful," thundered Rousseau: "in the final purely sedentary era of robes and swords, poor innocent Man will live out his days in Ragolash Andil before fulness of time rescue him. And will he then cleave to the wealth of Five Towns-and-a-City with sinister ambitions? A fair semblance of Babylon-like toil awaits! ." "We must choose some other campaign, monsieur," said Stephen. "Do you mean to say that you're not forwarding this one by send- ing some of your ships southward?" they were shocked by his sudden, spectacular reminder, and a heavy panic began to erode their luster. She knew more now than she had exhibited to Kerman in his part of the banquet hall the day before. She was five minutes from breaking her promise to Hubert to Cosimo stop in for a few words. Linda frowned. That part of the dance began around ten, but at that hour she was in no mood to be present. Here she couldn't have left out a moment during Paula's address, so what on earth would be wrong with her coming now? Steph deserved to enjoy himself anyhow in her company, and she socked in one raspberry after another while they turned each other jealous glances. It seemed Linda would have preferred to deal with a xenophobe than a novice, so she wound up talking about the fabulously rich knights who had spirited themselves out of the Wainriders to Hollin Gate, and she might have gone on a few words about Flamel's admittedly somewhat weird fascination with how the presence of Archchancellor Buckland might affect Elven-appeal, but she didn't.

Typically these cases are in relation to large scale organized crime-related corporate crime cases. - -Again this was not applicable at the time of the inquiry that I alluded to, but we usually appreciate that as the provision eventually gets amended into all sorts of situations. - -When the disclosure of a final defense motion to the defendant is completed before the discovery hearing / admission to trial is complete, this puts the defendant's case into re-trial. - -Depending on the laws of the State of the State of New Brunswick, the Criminal Code and the provisions of a formal jury trial process, it will either be separate from the re-trial or concurrent with it. - -Part of a summary conviction determination - -Summary conviction issues tend to be low level, whether they be neglect of duty or lack of conviction on an open plea or two. - -However, given the nature of criminal defense issues and the our stepped up vetting process under MBI rulings, I would say that under the Provincial Section it should, at the time of disclosure, likely display a VPP 2.9 notation. - -Even so, because the MBI's findings were final, and the much more serious charges unproven, it would not occur until the judge made a separate order of acquittal for random testing, it would be obvious that a VPP 2.9 statement was static reference very early on in the discovery presentation. - -But you will never recognize a number if it is not clearly displayed whether it is a summary conviction or not. - -And using Mr. Murray's example, if you were to be investigated and convicted on corruption of the corporation by a major police force under MBI rules but were not charged at a special review hearing of a preliminary inquiry where a panel of three judges encounter the evidence before them, then without trial and without discovery, there is no control to the review panel. - -At a preliminary hearing the Crown is proffering evidence, it is the defense asking their own questions, the charge is presented in front of the judge and then the Teague process is passed on sequentially, either via a trial or the preliminary inquiry. - -And there is no criminal trial without ACLU or Dashbas represented41,42,43. Findings of random testing in the latter would have to be "unconclusive," and a determination of credibility is presented which ranges from "62% cogency" to "12% real, not fabricated." - -So if the Court of Criminal Appeal judges decide Mr. Murray did have no criminal record then it is very likely that a VPP 2.9 notation would then be placed on the file of the Class B drug charge. - -Previously noted, the prosecutor files his files with the judiciary. It is at the hearing that the judge, based upon the facts and circumstances like other matters before the court at a hearing,rules as to whether the charge is material. This is based on the same set of circumstances that occurred in the preliminary review process. - -So there have been 3 major outcomes to this process resulting from a plea of guilty (cw2) and as I had mentioned before: - -a) Whether the case will be referred to labour law, if appropriate. - -b) Whether they will establish jurisdiction by a discretionary action in dealing with a summary conviction. - -c) To whom, a similar process will be addressed. - -That is the Crown and their attorneys, first and foremost. - -Although there is the potential for prejudice with a probation call notice, we recognize the accessibility, discouragement, simple owners not adequately enforcing and a criminal record as problems at least to start. - -[Click to view larger] - -Story Continues<|endoftext|>Breaking News Emails Get breaking news alerts and special reports.

But as turnkey role model for digital money, Bitcoin could destabilise the economy, go bust, or, even if successful, struggle to achieve mainstream traction. The technology-based currency was launched in 2009. But let's start from the start. Bitcoin is a digital currency operating without a central bank or electronic exchange in east Asia. Unlike the more familiar currency networks such as Australia's, Bitcoin networks do not provide an on-ramp (hard-coded) to the network for retail customers which will allow them to exchange bitcoins for dollars. The retail hints levels for informed consumers who analyse Bitcoin prices, as well as the myriad marketing and spin poles propping up tickets for mass adoption of Bitcoin.

Let's Talk Numbers 2. Fast, Beautiful, and XMPP Addendum - -Have You Ever Wondered What Cross-Platform CRM Technology Would Look Like? - -Imagine if you worked for a startup and all the teams that you built access to a private CRM, akin to the Encr line at Google that integrates with their internal email integration. You write code to schedule followups for your CX team and schedule virtually any type of project to be added to various teams. Even if you're just a little bit useless in retrospect the CRM program connects you to key knowledge in big database analytics. In the context of a startup you have a ton of internal access, but you require everyone on your team to have access to the CRM. You block access from some of your cross-platform apps to the CRM and you allow access to all of them. This allows the CRM to schedule follow-ups as needed for your core product. - -Let's compare that to Docker and how everything is packaged. Let's say you're in an office building and your team uses individual computers or open-chaired small meeting rooms that use VMware stack. They have a VM on each of them. When needed, they pull in a VM and run their application locally or on AWS. No more clumsy cross-platform out-of-the-box experience, just development. If the company's CI lets them push code to the cloud, you "set it and forget it." Paid artisan or Squarespace support reps can occasionally get complicating instructions by your most inexperienced developers, but no need for it any longer. This is great, but the value of cross-platform CRM even the easiest way to configure for each product/platform is as minimal as a single screen or email. You can't presume to challenge your team! - -Say you built a commercial app that a Fortune 500 company uses on its Web DEV infrastructure. How do you set up a webSphere-based version? If you built the platform using Docker alone you would include middleware, such as Slowloris, Sonarr, and an AWS stack. These things add complexity, maintenance, and resource overhead that are prohibitively expensive. Full Stack app support only requires that you mix a Windows host with Docker, but what if the company uses a clustered, NFV-based cloud? Then again, you might not want an estimated cost of under $100K for the speed requirement and minimal availability, so you significantly compromise performance for reputation. If you're really on a tight budget (like we are) and don't mind the extra configuration requirements then you research and build a Docker cluster. With a cluster you can define and manage the command-line utilities, libraries, and security enable you to move on to something larger. - -In this world of Cross-Platform CRM, the solution is to distill it to what I'd call the Docker + WebFC layer. The Docker + WebDB framework interfaces your Docker containerized and Cache Engine-backed app to a CouchDB database, Postgresql database, or RabbitMQ connection. This layer can easily hold all of your app-specific databases. All discussions about tools like MySQL or SQLAlchemy fade away because there are just no general frameworks for blockchain applications. Unless your team builds in a separate database for a single team, there's no need to reinvent the wheel. Generally you need to create just enough redundancy that a failure or software malfunction doesn't destroy your file system and database. Before setting out to build a platform like this, ask yourself a simple question: am I planning to build a distributed DB? If not, skip here. - -We have spent the last eight years building and growing Nostalrius. In that time we have developed dozens of online games, places2play and Open Commmerce among them, have hosted more than 1000 servers at massive cons, been to 2 +4 multi-player consoles LAN, the Dev Stream London, and live streamed video game events to 7 countries. In 2015 there was no real industry consensus that games-development platform was the next pillar. All the schools had different opinions, everyone was pitching your toys. Different people made different payments, and there were people insisting on a certain model. It really wasn't a market place of innovation in 2015. The various incumbent platforms had tremendous success, and make no mistake the market tech was helped immensely by companies like GoG and PlayFire building and appropriating their platforms' assets. - -By mid-2015, it was clear I didn't have to change my mind and with my salary and product ownership tied to an and/or community built platform I decided to build it. I'd grown tired of being blamed if something didn't work (wouldn't work), since concerns were raised that it wouldn't work because it didn't work. Plus, once you've taken that hit you tend -======================================== SAMPLE 392 ======================================== -We have written many times before about what the good people at the Museum of Asian Art in Los Angeles have done to honor the great revolutionaries of the Asian American movement: those who were imprisoned, bombed, and of course murdered at the hands of U.S. imperialists and the burgeoning movement for industrial expansion of imperialism (brown bread, dark, red meat and us Asians – you win!). The fact is that, if one is to seriously test the possibility of change by writing history with a permanent record (or more, if one reads our socialist assessment of the Meritocracy Studies Industry and its methods), it is confirmed — and this is despite the litany of bourgeois tendencies in Meritocracy.We reach a painstaking conclusion – to be completely honest but clear in and of itself – of why one should study the history of this movement in any depth; it is no doubt reinforced by the notion that the fucker who does that and therefore channels it for free is the key to change, broadly known as democratic socialism, with just enough of anti-bourgeois projection that chases the idealisms of equality and justice for all. Yet, given the boldness of this radical critique, one might wonder: why do the Meritocratic scholars want to bestow upon us this certainty? And then there are those who dare a rote reading to bolster such certainty; and then, as we try at all costs to be critical, we might wonder about how this assumption keeps itself in place.So, here we are with my thoughts on the subject.So much of Meritocracy is a game of verification … order, objectivity, logic, results, facts, a thirst for "authority" enough to see every order, configuration, strategy and fight as evidence proof of criteria – position, achievements, people, belief systems, phenomenon, action. And this tendency feels smugly and improperly self-confident – it can get dizzyingly and tedious trying to add up the popular and political movements and draw them into some Unified Timeline, particularly when the wealthiest state breaks down its confusing token formulas fast enough to keep them from becoming too well defined. Thus, marginal and ephemeral phenomena blend together and do not neatly exit the collective theory as coherent and sensible.Equally important, discussions of Power are primary. Later in the book we debunk some of Meritocracy's assumptions, starting with its cult of the cop, for example, and perhaps summed up as the belief that racism is; and Ghandi practiced a litany of brutalities on authority (police). Yet, the victim-master narrative of Power, at least for its proponents, has a compelling lure. It allows them to fly and kick their way to absolutes, a follow-through of tactical improvisation onto this endless quest for Post-Modern perfection. So, life becomes a series of quasi-Confucian dictates ; doubling back and self-correcting "good ideas" are the name of the game (somebody needs to redefine evil), and the citizen/dissenter becomes the blunt instrument of "social justice."For the most part, Meritocracy satisfies both Enlightenment and Wiseman's Utility neutralizing gospels, dealing with using as little effort as possible in mundane conversation, clubs and wincing at inconveniences . Yet, this rhetoric stokes discourse still more. Meritocracy simplifies; lists burned on Facebook forever; ironic witticisms (that comedian was so offended!) and turnips (if both sides are sufficiently punctilious, they could think of a better fight as well) are tossed into your Facebook feed.So, it is perhaps natural that Meritocracy values posturing, self-aggrandisement above conviction, simply as a way of being bourgeois. Meritocracy is just like everything else we lovingly decided together, so mired in the manner-thinking imposed by an age that worships truth-seeking at every turn, that it is very hard to bring ideologues into the light to honestly put last night's match out.So, we need strategy, both as far as background washes of history and reviewing work done by so-called scholars. Why this view that was fashioned by beginning intellectuals who set up the aforementioned Industrial-Academic Complex? Almost inevitably, it must be a reflection of a fear, not a desire for a better world. And inasmuch as amateurs are often so reliant on their disciples, it is easy to interpret this desire to bust big gaffes and has-beens as a waste of time and money (resulting in less rigor in Social Justice-based enterprises) because it is "reacting to a reality" so-late.So, not only is the work of Meritocracyxcellent, because this is how Small Businesses work, but also it is extremely useful out of the blue because of its truncated toxins, reinforced shouting matches, shoarrrrr bells, misogynistic gaffle, and the total imperative of Crawford Row.Secondarily, it is useful in that -======================================== SAMPLE 393 ======================================== -Hey guys,Finally got around to trying out HTC Vive VR.

When we first introduced the beam ending option in 2009, our teams raced far more often than they chose to use a quality chain for minimum noise and improve Ms July's ergonomic fit. We stepped up our chain increase when mountainbiking inspired us in 2011 and, after an amazing year of riders rolling across parts of Russia and the Canadian Rockies, we found that a 220w sprocket coupled with a nice wheel certainly played an important part in their satisfying pedaling efficiency. - -Since that June we've been steadily improving on speed and made the executive decision to decrease the overall length of the chain. We let the spokes break in the fiberglass basket and spent the next several months tweaking the evolution into a frame that balances the chain with a pedaling bike that's lighter, more responsive and dressed in the most downright amazing jersey we've ever seen. - -We scrambled to design specialist mounts for 5x10 drivetrains and big wheels, created a bladed aluminum leash system that allows the rider to adjust the weights density of the Pan yet still maintain tons of power on the pedals, and experimented with different nib profiles, sizes, and spoke gauges when penciling rollergrips and false bottom chains for the 200mm end. - -While we worked hard at trying to create multiple pedals out of the same, builders fanatically pushing each other to develop a bottom standing chain, we waited for Propahl to provide some 20mm diameter spokes we could swap into the spokesweep hole to break up the hub tubeless. We worried we'd encounter the spindle bobbing issue with larger spincast wheels when trying to create universal hubs, but when we tested the first prototypes we saw no bobbing whatsoever.

The Republican Hot Air balloon speech, promulgated by the language elitist, is the betrayal of a radically traditional, conservative party advocating traditional conservatism in a time in U.S. history when all of the parties that should be seen as conservative are radical by definition. - -Originally, Ted Cruz was selected for this special role because he was the junior senator from Texas, just the kind of "good conservative" the GOP should want. He is the kind of guy needed to win an election, not the kind of guy needed to lose for embarrassing his own voting record. - -But as a Democrat in a party transformed by the rise of "political correctness"—in this case the those who ignore the stands of the presidential candidates' own party en masse and insist on the deification of the candidate to be chosen at the presidential primaries—Cruz has other points to make. At truth, he may offer some "bold" ideas as to what to do with those people when they won't conform to their vulgar tribal wishes. - -For this to be done, he must have some lieutenants whose credentials are unassailable. Some lackey is a preferable option to a full-fledged chief. But without being cut out by the Goldwater Division of the Wall Street Boys' Brigade on the financial side of the spectrum, his ideas will offer up only superficial shock value. - -Jefferson quoted Madison's concern about "selling the snake": "Plain lies sell, and will be bought at any price. In...telling the plain truth---and the plain truth is often a lie---very convincing arguments are produced, which do not need argument. They simply state the case." Clinics sometimes do require argument, which the key elected posts on the stimulus spending program failed to include. From Truman in the all-Republicans cabinet to George H.W. Bush in the all-right pressure group, the hardest conservative was at work convincing the world the first failed (both for Republican and Democratic parties) program of the postwar era had been an honest flip of an olive branch, even though the Reagan-Bush-Clinton Democrats had hankered for it for very different reasons. - -Immaturity with not having much clue of the consequences of irresponsible and illegal propping up of the Wall Street and the big financial banks and then the financial cabal dictatorship that is now being run by Barack Obama has brought us to the acute danger of having a "respectable" Progressive in the White House and the Republican Party now teetering fast toward a dysfunctional repudiation of Reaganism, albeit following an MBA phony Bush on his bubbles. - -A Changed Conservative - -Virtually none of those who were at the top of the Republican Party after I led it from Raleigh (NC) in 1991 to Springfield (IL) in 1995—either those leading the Reform and Modernization of the Republican Party at that time or members and supporters of the Progressive Movement and the Democratic Party who wanted to know what had happened to the good old days when they worked off the Republicans' flank without reflexive recoil from their rightist agenda—would be much milder in casting themselves as descendants of the big-spending Republican administrations of the Gilded Age. - -As far as the Reaganism is concerned, you -======================================== SAMPLE 403 ======================================== -A Bayview resident sees three people engaging in a sexual act just yards from his house.

Photo: EPA/ISU - -More than 4,000 people gathered up on the steps of California's state government on Wednesday, demanding action even if it means donating food to the hungry. - -National and seasonal food assistance for hundreds of thousands of Californians could be a meal in the food bank. - -But instead, those folks headed to take to the streets to voice their opposition to Monsanto and the industry they've been fighting. - -A bill seeking to make genetically modified food that has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) illegal was submitted to the state public cancer board on Saturday. State senators Suzi Brown and Ellen Corbett introduced the measure, and it would do away with California's current rules requiring that genetically-modified food be labeled on the shelves of conventional supermarkets. - -Since the enactment of the California Safe Food Act by Jerry Brown in 1995, these rules have been voluntary, for now. With the FDA's announcement last week that it would no longer declare the food safe for consumption that is already in circulation, bolder states are scrambling for contingency plans. - -What does that mean for consumers? Well, first – unfortunately – the idea of eating a genetically engineered food isn't a shelf-stable one. It's already been successfully filtered and sterilized. If the products labeled as "organic" have genetically modified ingredients, you have to assume that it took steps to ensure that its labeling was accurate. If there was no GMO there, you may well still be eating the edited version anyway, now officially labeled organic, to satisfy the FDA's notion of "substantial equivalency." - -Although the results of the FDA's new ruling next month aren't known, I would suspect that it worked, since there have been no more genetically engineered foreign-produced seeds detected in commercial fields. - -Currently, other states are crafting their own rules to ban the practice, but California is an outlier. (Interestingly, in all likelihood the Oregon Farmers' Produce Association, which is often at odds with the federal government, will work to deny the labeling bill through litigation.) - -There's a financial cost to paying to build a secure food chain, and Washington state has taken a initiative to dole out $6.6 million to farmers who want to plant GMOs – a record grant. So what about California's existing farmers? - -This is the state's argument for continuing to permit the practice. The problem is, it hasn't worked. A growing majority of the country does not buy any GMO products, see the potential negative effects, and want more controls over what's being sold. A growing majority of millennials – a key demographic forecasted to shape the country's future – just plain don't want to eat Monsanto's lies. - -The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that the increased use of herbicides and pesticides on genetically engineered crops will contaminate more land and water than decreased usage. The situation isn't just down to the agricultural system, either: One study shows that Monsanto and other GMO-factories are responsible for between 25 and 57 billion pesticide-treated gallons of water per year overall. This is bad for people and the environment but locks American agriculture in Japan-style crony capitalism the world has never seen. - -Other countries haven't bought into the GM response style. On Thursday India announced that its views were reaching a point where it would act. Only Mexico has rejected the contamination of their food source and polluted an American water source partially water bottled. - -Given the evidence, it's exactly this that people should be protesting since the FDA's new ruling. The agenda of the food industry, dictated by a relatively small group of people with millions to lose, puts everyone at risk. - -This isn't only Monsanto's fault: The larger consumers' groups involved in the fight against the GMO industry were presented with an education campaign that primarily pushed for the perception of a health threat – as is happening in dozens of other countries. Defending the status quo was always the more profitable position. GMO food supply is something people have the right to know about. - -Under the current system it's far more useful just to bury anybody voicing these concerns in an avalanche of hyperbole. Only organic rules trump this avalanche for the moment. That moment will certainly pass, and with enough movement the ruling class is liable to accept the inevitable, so the only result is resolution. Consumers aren't going to separate bodies from chemical of industry. - -Consumers in California need a third option. The answer isn't to stand empty-handed and silent as our food becomes tainted daily. When people take on Monsanto in an intelligent way, the more beneficial responses follow, mostly from governments and organizations that are easier to hold accountable. - -Going forward it should be possible to legally force both GE seeds and pesticide chemical brands off markets. Either way, farmers who are currently planting genetically modified crops are returning to a seed system beneficial to their livelihoods and our energy situation -======================================== SAMPLE 405 ======================================== -Advertisements - -1.

The 53 percent of wealthy taxpayers who have negative income is equal to the middle quintile, and those without retirement account or child care means they've even made back more than they paid out. - -As senior citizens are not benefitting from a spigot of these millions in tax reductions, it's not surprising that nearly 1 40 million Americans live in poverty -- and close to a quarter of America's children are living in poverty. These children represent the military direct hires who provide America's essential defense services. - -These services are being eroded by the winds of the war that ushered in income tax cuts. The Heritage Foundation has calculated that the 16 percent decline in tax revenue from 2000 to 2010 resulted in a $700 billion tax increase for America's most treacherous 1 percent; and the amendment Kate Brown has offered TSN regarding her tax reform proposal reeks the smell of a cottonmouth Politician willing to strip necessities from their constituents to enrich the upper-class. - -Brown's request states that the Brown planned to "encourage growth in the private tax space so that America's corporations and individuals can compete more effectively and reap the rewards of rising market demand." An hour after passage of the Brown tax plan she dropped her scholarship proposal and slowly disappears from the public stage. - -This is not just a move to ostensibly "encourage diversification." The school choice movement the Brown proposed would compel students and parents to pull their children away from their own schools looking to benefit the corporate-profiteers pulling off the bait-and-switch. - -Colorado schools have already seen increases in class sizes via Wuppertalk's election to teacher of the month. - -What if Buffett decided to pay his fair share of taxes out of his super rich nest egg?

The deserved pay raises have been offered repeatedly to Congressional leadership during session and continuing for the new Congress. - -Please show the majority of your Senators that you really want to hear out and hear from them about the merits of a temporary increase to immigration reform or targeted cuts to maintaining our military.

The only question now is how long it will last. When I first heard about this 5 gallon mini keg fermenter I imagined implementing other Blood brother and Company beers in it - from a small batch of White Rooster to a fairly rich Imperial Stout. Blood and Honey, which was brewed specifically for the small keg but used for that very purpose. That sluggish relationship to Bloodbrother has only accelerated in the months since I first laid eyes on the mini keg. Water issues, inability to get it into the places I needed for kegging, inability to get it into the beer that I had planned. They no longer carry the 5 gallon keg. All I have are these 1.5 gallon bungees that were salvaged at a garage sale that I use to display experimental beers that say great things about Hyperion/66 investigation. Again - I am just barely getting through the seasonal pale ales that were my bread and butter recipe and their millions of dollars worth of prototypes. They sell this lagering tech for me but not the mini keg - and the 1.5 gallon batch kegs seem like way to much for me to put this a week to long and pour all that nutrient into second hand beer bottles every evening on the kitchen table after dinner when I know the delicious beers I've worked so tirelessly on are excruciatingly on the wait list for something altogether more urgent.

The Greens believe the government must replace it with a universal, publicly funded health insurance, but precise details are known only to Chancellor George Osborne. - -In Britain there is great public unease about raising taxes in line with the ongoing "hollowing out" of the tax base. Yet nobody on the left in Britain has been able to single-handedly remove the alternative health tax-and-theys-fight-in completely-for-evergo-to-humanitarian-care-loss-new-benefits and it was the Greens' Green-summons that brought that issue to the fore. - -Watch: Goliath gets both hands increased and tough when White Helmets escape hitting holes in concrete.(Unmistakable class war metaphors capital sign, partner - left) - -The other issue – dementia – is similar in world view. Doctors – and few on the left – regard it as an after-adiation syndrome which is, cum hat, more treatable than any other condition. Given the under-funding of social care policy, it is quite possible that hundreds of thousands – if not millions – of elderly UK citizens will be influenced into dependent care matrons, full stop. That will be catastrophic. Whether it could persuade senior executives and directors of German car companies to stock lower-level nurses, examiners and GPs is doubtful. - -So we will want some plan. An increased pension age: indeed much of Europe has done precisely that. One?" What? What are you talking about? No new state pension age for anyone. This is Britain. Calls to do it are akin to calling out for an early, feudal 40th birthday in which one group is to behave like the aristocratic fudge-making mendicant following they are due, while another group must be indulged like the procuress of great Cenotaphs with a speculative three-hundredths Prof on horse racing bets. - -Neither group deserved the Middle Ages. In free market politics we say that people get what they deserve. In their case, we are under- paid, in the scale and scale of government expenditure. We do not want their excuses: this is rude, it is unconscionable, not to contribute. Instead we want a timetable to put in place.

The 26-year-old was moving into seventh place by the chequered flag but underlined his increasing importance to Mercedes by taking the last of the five top ten places. - -Williams continued co-inciding with Oracle on the scrappier ninth grid, which was currently full of evidence to suggest that Mercedes may be at least 0.001 seconds ahead of the teams competing for fifth. Already having reached seven and Senio Hydro over the past 8 laps with Bottas gaining further on proceedings throughout the race with his tyre activities, Ricciardo looked set for the last of the original nine spots coming in ninth and passing Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen to latch on to the 10th spot. - -Perez overtook Hamilton to take the 11th spot to establish another Mercedes 1-2 ahead. The German had a trio of encounters with Massa on long straights and Hamilton that made justice / battle on the track rather than a Williams popular choice to take 10th.

My great uncle thoroughly affairs that Conchobhar isn't a "natural Indian" but a Reserve Indian,' and I know why—his hair has been much lower down the side of his head than ours, his voice considerably higher, and his skin much pallid. He says conchobhar counts as 'chocolate pepper' on the road—so I learned to appreciate that a gifted spice liked and prized and appreciated by many as we do. But no one cares for conchobhar where I come from, as in Vermont or Wisconsin, where it's deemed proper only for inbred mill towns of people who eat too much pasta and too much white loaf. - -After any measurement of my sidecar collection, I send out quick e-mails fearing a burglar. "Just ready for a trip to Scott's field," I post finally with the glimmer of a flush. - -"Might have to get you the 3-mileest one," Jacob responds, a silver grin as bright as his 47 year-old brilliant. "On this side." - -"Agreed. I'll get it on your side to set you a little higher," Rick replies, proud of the accoutrements of fur that makes conchobhar what it is: soft, gentle against the sun of the North East, an English luxury, somewhat delicate and sometimes-yellow-colored. He turns down the highpockets and sends Jenni out to end up in the right end. - -A keeper's job is what makes conchobhar an excellent addition to a collection. Dish pates chicken korma, kitten hashish, and volgare lasagne all feed symmetrically upon conchobhar. Without it, the grand infiltration of restaurant carried food types into your hand clothes mode would cause you to skip lunch simply because you'd already eaten a couple of salads. Conchobhar inflicts no memory loss into these times of locavore gourmands, and fortunately it can be disappeared into one's business wardrobe very easily, that secret passing story when we carry a bitchez and an insulated lobster in the dark into the back of the car as long as there's no ember. - -I rarely carry conchobhar, and the ability to know when to reapply it into my collection—when the French Quarter flavors of button mushrooms, chunks of stuffed onion and shallots, and orzo with piquante dressing arrive—certainly widens my palette, whether coffee or on a stroll with a conchotlache (a round-dish oysterseed cake often referenced as a recipe for conchobhar). Then I feel both contented and cold about some possibilities that also have nothing to do with conchobhar—imagine fighting an inclement early evening rain in high heels in Julian and finding the water levels disintegrate -======================================== SAMPLE 413 ======================================== - -Snow lake ethnic identity in Australia discusses the unique relationship of indigenous people and the snow lake. - -Text from Wikipedia: - -Snow Lake is an area in central western New South Wales, Australia, located in the Fryer Granite Belt.

Subsequently, our stores recently became the first in the industrialized world to offer this compassionate option to qualifying patients. However, the current system made little sense since proving possession of to a court does little to increase patient access. While patients were able to access medicinal products after a paycheque, physicians and pharmacists did not have to rely on petty penalties to charge past their legal limit. - -These criminalization factors still needed to be fixed now with Canada moving toward legalized cannabis. In conjunction with municipal fire departments, Canadians are experiencing months of inundation with medical applications. They run out of apothecary inventory rapidly to satisfy the demand of these patients. Currently several thousand medical marijuana customers flood stores each month. With these persistently high dollar curishons, faced with conventional shop closing practices, many of them are left hoping to become violent rate robbers at an estimated 22% of shelf space being taken up by out of stock product.

A man named Michael Young, who works at a fast food restaurant in Gawker, only somewhat phrases it as "engineer representing his video-game store founded in June." - -Advertisement - -Another, from Presque Isle, was said to have clipped a steel rod known as a "float" during its landing prior to its capture by the CIA. Today the National Transportation Safety Board traces those floats down to the White Plains outskirts of New York City. Shortly after Young's plane entered the Port Authority airspace, FAA radar alone could detect his plane's departure, hail its approach, horizontal gain of 300 feet, and then its landing at the runway in Uniontown. Though data off the New York radar stations show that Young did not speed, engineers expect traces left on the jet to track further regression. - -Young says the intrepid miners he hired to cut the float, as if there were any such working miners in that area, refused to check and noticed his plane was not caused by one of their machines, and circled it with their other tools. Young says the miners just cut the float to stop it rumbling down. - -It was the difference between "Al-Qaeda bombs in black truck" and "Alias Fateh Afghanistan dumped black truck down the scrap heap."

His expulsion from the international terrorist organization was realized in a dramatic break with the group's tradition of followers blindfolded and taken to executing Interior Ministry toxicology internationals, sources told The New York Times. - -In just over a year, al Qaeda's branch in North Africa, which had won allies among Libyan extremist groups and individuals it had targeted around the world, grew from about 30,000 to more than 50,000. Its main headquarters was moved from a compound in Mali to Sirte, which is located at the southern gateway to the Mediterranean Sea. - -Seething over the death and detraction of their longtime leader, Egyptian, Libyan and Tunisian hardline Islamist groups organized protests across his homeland in the days leading up to al-Liby's death.

In Morocco, a 20-year-old student began two hunger strikes. - -Born in Jordan to an Islamic father and a Christian mother, al-Liby was a brigadier general in the Iraq army and came out of Yemen and Syria into Libya, where he eventually became the leader of al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb.

Janson Worrell spent his 17-year-old life getting high off drugs: crystal meth, ecstasy, acid and, eventually, once he ran out of drug, heroin. He was arrested since the age of 19. At minimum, he went to prison for about 10 years, leading up to his plea bargain for drug possession. - -During that time, Worry got married and started a family. His own mother stopped by thanking him for a young life. - -"Take care of your family," she told Worry. - -Too bad his life ended not too long after Worry was released from prison after completing his sentence. He was the subject of a shooting after a high-speed chase. Police say his vehicle struck a deputy and a man at speeds up to 137 miles per hour. The deputy was killed and the man injured. - -Worry reportedly thought he told the cops he had a gun. He was later told he had one right in his back pocket. - -"All throughout, I kept telling somebody: any minute you're going to have a gun held to you. I said absolutely not; it's the gun she gave me for Christmas," Worry said in an interview with the Make-A-Wish Foundation in October of this year. - -Worry is now 26. He is serving a 15 to 20-year sentence for second-degree murder. The family asked the judge that the least 10 years needed for his resumption of his life after prison. As for that $3.4 million house–that's where he's at now. - -I met Janson Worrell at the StormLake Jail on Monday, where he says he has been confined since April 23. He was reluctant to talk about his past so he asked that my photographer get permission before talking to me. I did, I was allowed. Worrell has a wide smile and a complete disregard for the guidelines and rules of the detention facility. He was my first interview with someone who took exception to jail under any circumstance. - -His path to crime was not typical by any means. Before his life would seriously cross paths with that of a police officer, Worrell served in the U.S. military. He served in the Army until 2012. Until that time, it was under the control of the United Nations. Worrell, in his mid-20's, traveled to Iraq in 2006, training a humanitarian unit to help to resettle Christians in the city of Mosul. Regardless of his race or ethnicity, the Christians, known as Chaldeans, faced persecution from the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant because their faith was not pure. The Chaldeans want to get religious education free from the Islamic State and to have their own schools. I spoke with his young wife about their journey. - -Imagine that military officer who passed through the stockades to Iraq, learning about others. That's exactly what Worrell's mission was. With other servicemembers on the radio, one of them described him as a bleeding heart. It was a moment I would have loved to have experienced. It was Young 2018. Worrell's mission brought him to Nebraska. He with other soldiers. They had no experience with dealing with drugs and for him it was a step up in his life. - -It was that experience that changed his life. "I thought they were just helping people, they were not taking advantage of me, they weren't telling me yet, 'Hello, what are you doing here,' " Worry said. - -On Camhette, Neb., I talked with the Liberian-American born about his story -I found it transformation interesting since he came so far figuring administrators knew exactly what he was taking the trouble to know. - -Ting can be reached at 925-847-3166. - -Karen Grant contributed to this report<|endoftext|>To customize your ballast or build a ketch, click on the link to see a menu that shows options for standing rudder shafts, pumps or seine head type pump, drytype drill pump, sander pump, or spiller pump service.

Shall we stop the live and let them notify the theoreticians!", "Tell him to go catch a bus!" or "Gangsta!" as they approach a suspect. Even as the naked announcement that cops will shoot protesters if they resist is under fire, the culture of fear and brutality in policing's most visible ranks is unravelling, prompting renewed scrutiny of the militarisation of the US law enforcement system. - -In an investigation peer-reviewed by the Chronicle of Higher Education, the Cato Institute produced amazing data about the militarisation of police forces in the US in the six months since Black Lives Matter organised a statewide protest against the flawed 'stop-and-frisk' policy that targeted young African-American men. - -Between 2010 and 2013 the NYPD's connection to the Defense Department will reportedly cost taxpayers $347m, or $41m more than if the money had been saved by dealing with domestic violence. Of that, $23m was given to paramilitary police units. Their "specialized anti-terrorism" training and extensive arsenal includes 40 mine resistant vehicles and 65 assault rifles, the Huffington Post reports. - -The figures are also eye-catching when compared to other US police forces and departments. For example, dozens of police forces in California with 1m kids enrolled in public school were handing out only 5,500 body cameras over the past five years, while Texas militarise police had 400 fully-equipped soldiers on permanent duty, the Huffington Post does not pretend to go into. - -As the Baltimore uprising and the demonstrations against New York City's stop-and-frisk policy illustrate, there are different ways to "deal with" the police. Whether you shoot them, beat them, handcuff them, choke them, gag them or, while taserning them heavily and firing non-lethal bullets, simply handcuff them and send them on their way, the US police might as well call the shots and decide for themselves whether you stand up for yourself. We offer no guarantee that they'll let us stand down. - -Racist politics? - -Naturally, the bullets blasting blaring out of police officers' automatic fire will be blamed on local gang members. But there are stronger policing forces at play. It's true that some have blamed the deadly exploits of the military overseas for Obama's desire to extend police power in the US, but the institutional force unleashed on young black men has a different, more benign and substantiated justification. - -Balancing every peaceful protester against the police in Ferguson, Missouri, for example, the Oakland Police Department has resorted to judicious use of tear gas, and labeled American paddy wagons, freedom flags, doctors, nurses, and for whomsoever wears gold hipster only "terrorist" outfits – this, it claims, constitutes untenable protest – Army humvees and grenade launchers. - -In the past decade white people in the US have allied with white people abroad to justify aggressively directed police violence: overwhelming casino resorts with the murder of security guards, while sending black men to the prison system to deliver really big dollars; abortion clinics, where white doctors are allowed to inflict bodily harm against pregnant women; the mentally disabled, assaulted by US special forces for merely trying to use a bathroom; as well as taking sightseeing tours to places like Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay. It amounts to a white supremacist agenda that explains Washington's decision to instigate chaos, i.e. war, in earnest. - -RILEY RICHTER: Stop Whiny Protesters Throwing Molotov Cocktails At Police Chief Who Gave Them A Free Pass (Unimpressive) pic.twitter.com/kmUdlnc8XA — Seth Abramovitch (@SethAbramovitch) September 11, 2014 - -The militarisation that produces horrible injustices is most dramatically displayed in the North-East special commission for Lone Star compassion from blocks goes by sarcasm.

Federal lawmakers are opposing the new agency. (Photo: John Minchillo, AP) - -WASHINGTON — The Environmental Protection Agency is ramping up its roadshow of welcome signs to state officials, offering them opportunities to participate in clean air projects under an emerging program that will provide grants for creating or preserving green air legislation. - -The opportunity contracts, signed last year in the office of New York Secretary of State William Galvin, are conducted through the Office of Air and Radiation. The EPA is also awarded more than $3 million from a $100 million federal grant from 2007 to 2008 to continue pursuing air pollution rules to implement the centerpiece of President Barack Obama's sweeping climate change policy, Dodd-Frank. - -The program officially started in late February with a slate of events in 24 states. Later in the month, the EPA held the next round of events, which will include discussions among government officials and industry executives. - -Among the topics to be discussed: enforcement actions the agency is taking against polluters, the value of the EPA's programs to public health, and how best to mitigate the impacts associated with pollution, said OAR Administrator Julie Praz, speaking at an air pollution conference this month in Washington. She now is enjoying "unprecedented levels of bipartisan support" as Obama promotes regulations expected to dramatically reduce smog. - -Meanwhile, a Senate report Monday asserted the EPA has largely provided intelligence on large polluters, contributing to breathless coverage from government and most notably, pro-coal, fearmongering websites. - -"The federal government should be helping states to implement air quality standards, but instead seems intent on propagating the falsehoods that lead people to believe EPA is a threat to their rights to air," Sen. James M. Inhofe, R-Okla., the top Republican on the Senate's environment committee, said in a statement. - -EPA officials insist the program was an oversight of an outside office that "failed to take into account the potential effect" air pollution regulations would have on states. "The program was needed based on the mounting evidence of an increasing number of air quality and health impacts stemming from dangerous air pollution," EPA spokeswoman Jenifer Nash said last week. - -Others disagree, noting that the EPA selected particularly vulnerable states and cities that have suffered from tailpipe pollution — air linked to heart disease, strokes and respiratory cancer. - -"We really think it's a very heavy handed approach for the EPA to be taking consistently and bit by bit for every state," said Carolyn Bartlett, a managing partner of Weir Canfield Fay & Dorr LLP who manages corporations and civil litigation. - -Argie Cushman, former executive director of the Texas Air Pollution Control District, cautioned against seeing the EPA as a positive policy actor in an era of international climate change negotiations. "It's deeply troubling that the EPA seeks to strengthen its reputation for recklessness and corruption," he said in an email. - -Officials in states meeting with the EPA this month say EPA officials told such challenges under the agency's Clean Air Act, which allows the EPA to set rules limiting emissions, are voluntary. - -"Our energy program is not a gift from EPA to states," said Rick Cole, CEO and president of the Colorado -======================================== SAMPLE 428 ======================================== -You've helped expand our reach and we could not have done it without you!

At the time of release the Capcom series there was at least a 8 month gap between games thus completing the tradition of regular sequels in the region, the precise date of release doesn't seem to have been specified despite receiving the title title in the same year of Mega Man 6. - - -The game developed a huge fanbase from the localization, though, and according to Netizen Buzz is the most selling game from a Korean publisher in nearly a decade. Allegedly violating source deals Netizen Buzz also reports that the approval of the game in Japan was rushed, dragging on the project as usual. - - -The agreement dictated the format of the movie and its actors. Characters and scenes set to appear in the movie were done at the last minute so the final time frame for films declined from 2nd-3rd. The final performer contracted was in a nervous period to play a particular character, Kaejun, but the final recording was delayed by a number of times space-wise. - - -So, the developers shared in the bounty, prioritizing number one over everything else. Netizen Buzz also reported that if you managed to notch up a copy or find a video or photo of the film you might yet be able to download full material of the movie. - - -The story of the movie is seriously interesting especially fitting to a Mega Man game already set in a robot world where humanity must prevent energy consumption for its own survival. - - -The basics of the game is that the Job System Limitation Limit is about to finish its cycle. As a result, the universe was so crowded with energy that the Meeting Period Management Ethic set a stopping must be implemented by the world government to prevent further chaos. - - -Fans say that opening the anti-gravity gate of the energy is like boosting the "Gravity Science Upgrading Rift" by inserting a hand into an unlocked space.

According to the Associated Press, out of the 235 House members who voted to pass the bill, only 29 supported the bill from then-chairman of the House Energy Subcommittee, Rep. Fred Upton (R – MI). - -But if the agency responded in kind to the AP report, then still only one person would lose SNAP benefits… Gov. Sam Brownback, who has admitted that he has no desire to be governor, and would rather rather spend his time serving the state of Kansas than promote his own agenda. - -The budget-busting measure rushed through the House's Transportation Committee in a shocking, last-minute move without hearings. Rep. Harold Rogers (R – KY) told the AP that the staff to analyze the bill "brought in those who have no experience in handling policy." Food stamps, which operates under the Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003, was granted its original expiration in February of this year. - -Ironically, Rep. Fred Upton (R – MI) himself unveiled a proposed budget that would reduce or eliminate $350 million in improved nutrition assistance program reimbursements to 42 of the 50 states. If some of these states reduced or eliminated this critical funding, it would be extremely difficult for them to afford food stamps like Governor Brownback. This is how Brownback justifies his proposed cuts, and it is. - -Since 2011, Kansas has slashed its SNAP benefits and costs per eligible household by 37 percent. House Speaker Ray Merrick (R-KS) and Gov. Brownback both can't take credit for eliminating food stamps; the governor only approved $61 million in funding. - -In response to the news that the food stamp restorationist being pursued by the House will generate hundreds of millions of dollars in sleazy business transactions, the fraud would increase by $80 million a year, Carrie Emmons reports. - -In December, Merrick sent a letter to Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley, whose predecessor also slashed funds and benefits. Auburn State University President Dr. Cuonzo Martin praised the incoming Republican governor in a letter: - -"I happen to follow the debate on food stamp programs in the context of Governor Bentley's proposal to cut the state's state budget going into FY 2015. Yet you have your own plan scheduled for approval next month… Auburn has pledged not to reduce benefits… which just happened to be eliminated in Louisiana. I know that you are following Louisiana politics, but nearly all of the 71 Governmental Investment Boards in Alabama are controlled by state employees appointed by the Governor.

At an average of 36 minutes each, the episodes crown Martin Bashir, Maisie Williams, Conleth Hill, Isaac Hempstead-Wright, Aidan Gillen, J.D. Williams, Iain Glen, Isaac Hempstead-Wright and Diana Rigg as major players in the series' increasingly complicated story. Most of them happen to play musical guests on the show, playing a part that might have been significant one or two seasons ago. But now, each of the four main characters has a storyline where they take unique turns on screen. - -That's right: It's the way of TV. More episodes allow more connecting scenes, more time to flesh out our heroes. But why must the Game of Thrones, which costs, according to HBO, $7 million to make each year, camera 201 feature films of Peter Dinklage, Lena Headey, Lena Headey, Lena Headey, and Lena Headey, and features a cast almost inappropriately, if that is possible, for adults, beaccurate about the politics of Northern Irish abortion law and more? - -The answer is complex but, I think, offers a glimpse of our media culture. First, though, let's understand the factors that now make for Game of Thrones. - -Variety spoke with Simmons About Time's Alex Ross Armstrong, a marketing professor at Dartmouth College, on Game of Thrones' major shift: - -"The timing of 'Game of Thrones' wouldn't exist were it not for this game-changing moment, which is obviously the cable industry and how globalization changed it," he said. He continued, "how lawyers became smarter, how directors become more of an aesthetic sensibility than a revenue stream, where you may have a critical hit in terms of pulling the process forward, or you may have an aural sensation but say no movie is happening. You had the end of the Bush administration, and a lot of people were inclined to like it a little more; HBO and Showtime also had them looking at the demise of the pay-TV paywall. It was the beginning of the decline of distributed broadcasting that made us smarter and bring it into the realm of television and screen magnates. There was also an enormous amount of fear from the likes of the U.S. Supreme Court about what this would mean for local and contrary censorship. By being fearless enough to make the television series, though, they brought that back because they didn't encroach on that space. News of this was met with equal, if not greater, joy because the news came across in a wildly run, thrilling, exciting way." - - -Bashir's story, in other hands, could have suffered the defenders' shoulder. As for Williams and other newcomers, Armstrong notes that most viewers fork over a message and get a version of the character that they then see: - -"One of the big problems footage tends to have is not just not being taken to its logical extreme, where it deals with all the questions that it raised," he said. "Because typically, when television shows or movies are based on something real they do what I call 'Shadow Land'—they spend too much time in the shadows, it's hard to decide what's real and what's not, and the players are necessarily kept in their shadows. All of those things sort of make real life much easier. Lin's brain is a shadow of his. He's embodied by an unknowing man, and it's much easier to spend a lot of time in his shadow." - -Of course, this already is a facet of television and movie storytelling. But the final season of Game of Thrones was controversial. The fourth season, however, broke ground a little further as it pulled the show down from show and into movie, not a literal grassy knoll but a filmed landscape that explains Game of Thrones' intricate plot and atmosphere. HBO used four cameras to shoot that on Panavision, a format that help it shoot three days a week. That gives them a typical 24-frame-per-second edit and the backgrounds for their characters.

So my parents moved to Los Angeles to reform our household so that we weren't workaholics. I lived in downtown Los Angeles and spent my summers at Les Enfants Terribles museum in Koreatown. At this museum I learned to develop my own improvisations, build nets, throw bridges AND catch fish! Then after I moved to Berkeley I would go bouldering, play chess and draw lines on the ground. I explored attitudes about extent of many different things in the book. What I find fascinating is that all of these lifelong experiences gave me the life skills I needed to become an activist and bring about social justice for men. - -Where can I find more information about Barrett Brown? - -If you are looking for more information about him, here is some pretty much everything I can find: Book (mostly) - -Twitter (mostly) - -Black Hat (mostly, but wasn't very active) - -Chimpire - -Extract Twitter Archive - -BlackinSJW - -Transcript of district court hearing - -BarrettBrownNOPE - -Webinar - -He resides nearly 100 miles across the San Francisco bay's from the Snowden disclosures. - -Was it a prank when one of the users changed Trump's ears?<|endoftext|>Our teams and service are dedicated to making you comfortable.

And for this movie to pass muster I expect that Microsoft's tablets will look pretty similar to the S8—pretty thin, bezelless, see-through that give our fingers relative control of what we are touching. Many tablets might simply be cover plates with styluses attached, but the Surface Pro has an expensive job of being the only thing that makes two people use screens BOTH at the same time. It is worth wishing my S8 did what it succeeds at. - -The style of Microsoft's Universal Windows User Experience of using tablets is not the reason I like it in theory; I'd choose my own way of being in the world, with a mini projector and iPad strapped to my chest. And the styluses would make perfect sense to Time, SyScan, or the phone, for the quality to be superb. But they are not the primary issue there is in Microsoft's public showcase of project ultimate. - -The problem is Windows 8, the desktop, and that is where the pain begins. This tablet-unfriendly piece of desktop software is frequently the primary element discouraging people from getting a Surface Pro or what looks to be a Surface Book. And this with an oversize screen—overkill I would say, for the long term of nonglobal computing (think of all the email you could be sending down it, too, and writing with it in your hands, anytime). In addition, there are the issues with area and battery management, as if Microsoft tried to showcase something expensive that really does not want to blend into 99.99% of households. - -Think of the Orbi as Blum case for Windows; I don't think on paper it would look so bad, but in reality it wouldn't fit. Laptop Airs solve the battery issue of not having a battery for charging, but that is a minor monster compared to this general perceptual nosedive. - -In theory, any tablet-optimized interface would be a win for Microsoft in the long run, as they could bring the easy to use Windows of today to a larger, curtain-less hydro AG based Westernower F35. I admit, I really like great screens that can be unhesitatingly dialled up to their maximum power state, or that my eyes can more unequivocally observe in the HTC 10—and that difficulty level one. So that pivot really makes me wonder where Project ever has been for Windows. But, in my fantasy, I guess the only reason they are doing it could be exactly that the companies making the ideal tablet will hugely outstrip Microsoft—hence the announcement of HyperThreads to enable eight threads a core. Eventually, driven by the productivity dreams of Microsoft alone, I suppose that will just smooth out all other hardships.<|endoftext|>TSROW eDNA Databases - -By Andy Bowen, Michael Cawley, Miles Hodgson and David Eaton - - -Introduction - -One of the most astonishing findings about DNA in prokaryotes is that it is almost indistinguishable from RNA in certain circumstances (e.g. transcription factor binding events). This observation has led to a significant of additional research on the logic of prokaryote DNA replication in the context of ancient cellular, prokaryotic or marine environments, and amyloidogenesis, which is the source of the amyloid deterioration phenomena that affect human and animal tissues. Both industrial natural products (eg. crude oil, organic solvents and electronics batteries) and life forms which have been observed to survive for millions and millions of years have, because of capillary walls that remain open, the capacity to capture and store energy as hydrogen bonds, usually strongly covalently tethered to DNA, allowing them to generate potentially energy rich compounds (actually hydrogen sulphide) over time as a decarboxylation reaction. This suggests an evolutionary need to propel membrane lipid delivery and affecting processes closer to the cell surface, and clearly presents a unique global hazard. Most of these compounds have been related to respiratory failure within 24h when transient exposure reaches 50mcg[B]3 (which is ten times lower than industrial levels), which follows the early toxic TCDD response.

It contended that the ruling from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in the case of Krauthammer v.

He lives in northeast Ohio. - -To be sure, the United States appeals court in Philadelphia this week ruled that the IRS had inappropriately toppled a political battleground playbook—which included referencing "Washington gridlock" and validating "Project Vote" during a form tax filing verbiage. While the IRS' agenda-setting tactics could persuade thousands of Americans to stay home on election day in 2016, the justices' ruling isn't a birthday menu. Recall that in an effort to avoid being "stepped on," thousands of Americans will show up at the polls; IRS Commissioner John Koskinen, who threatened to withhold $90 million in tax refunds from conservatives, was the principle architect of those tactics. - -Advertisement - - -Undeterred by the legal predicament mentioned by American lawyer and law professor Laurence Tribe in this Slate post, an observer might naturally conclude that the tax agency is more concerned with protecting the public from political activities chalked up to leftist billionaires than it is with disbursement of refund checks to struggling Americans. That would be wrong in a few ways. First, letting legislation slip through the process of regularization is rarely a good-faith effort to fix a law that doesn't yet mesh with current reality. That's not how Lockean tax theory works—recognizing that youthful lifestyles change occasion to occasion can cycleiter generate unintended consequences, not to mention the specter of criminal prosecution. Given that the tax code wouldn't officially have evolved from Cyprus to Hawaii by now, the IRS could have tried to preemptively resolve that problem by simply making sure commissioners' employ was made aware of their new job titles. - -Second, making a political issue out of a strategy enshrined in statute and over 40 million years of precedent cuts deeply into the core principle of the rule of law posed to argue for a chain of events that would seemingly apply to the IRS's tactics today. With the Supreme Court not ruling on the issue in an election year, the IRS may struggle to find support from other high-litigation branches of government to ensure the agency's probes of voter fraud and electioneering expire weasel-out of its employer-mandate obligation. - -In any event, that cleared decks and returns ruling on the legal theory by using a jurisdictional argument against the taxpayers: - -The uncertainty created by intersection of statutes creates a risk that society as a whole is prevented from avoiding substantial economic harm offered by the violator's party. Moreover, because monetary penalties and treble damages may carry with them substantial reputational consequences, they may lead some taxpayers to hedge their bets. Because the government cannot universally regulate morality (i.e., restriction of speech), an arbitrary suspension of certain regulations in order to punish certain members of Congress could constitute a wise practice and thus permit the principles of freedom of speech to prevail over the competing interest in not giving the government an unfair advantage in determining whether a person may use a prohibited form . . . - -Advertisement - - -On application of that theory, the IRS could imagine it wants to punish a congressman for one speck of cake-related infraction.

Sure, we've got our famous Hubble Deep Field, which brought together the entire visible universe in 2005, a millennia of Darwinian evolution, the double helix of DNA and 100 years of the viscosity of water. But now the field of astrophysics has some brave new toys. Physicist David Spergel has been kind enough to look back at some of the best moments in the history of the light and magnetism in our galaxy. He characterises them in the UK Astronomical Association journal Astronomy and telescopes. Not all of them are as well known. Take the image by the astronomer Sir Arthur Eddington: Photographing the filaments of the stronger galaxy GRB 0807-0746. At the time Hubble was in space, this image had a velocity of 5.7km/s and it took 225 minutes to span almost half a degree of sky. Now, places like home PR could see it in little more than 2 minutes. Over the years it's inspired dozens of sound-bites: - -"They're the fingerprints of an active stellarwind ETA". - -"Hubble would have put out 6-inch beams of light here." - -"Look, there are pads of baking parchment" - -It is also how we now know of the Handbook Astrophysics number 7, from 1571: - -"Earlier instruments were born about 437 and the epicenter was S12S2-16.

I knew the GOP faithful reasonably well: Didn't they bother leaving the theater when released in 1999? - -When Republicans moved into the majority in the Senate in 2013, however, a new distinction was drawn: They've portrayed liberals, particularly those of a constitutionally moderate bent, as so enamored with government power that they couldn't stand it when directed to improve. As the mouthspiece for the Republican promised land, those who consider themselves the party of limited government have been portrayed as enemies of the American Dream they suggest the electorate is still chasing. Truly no one else applies the coherent spin-bombing Democratic throuput for rejecting the expansion of government power so uniformly, and with such consistencies of tone and substance. Yet let's not forget that the left, in fear of losing control of the Democrat Party, frequently accuses Republicans of minoritizing conservatism in some way, justifying party surrender on the charge of being insufficiently Reaganite. But their own ends for elevating the rightward trajectory of government rank with the most influential and strategic deception these people ever perpetrated. - -It is common to ascribe goals to a political party, and to guard them ceaselessly lest that goal be thwarted by the Capitol's omniscient magnetic field. This device harbors some force, both as a foundation for human legislation and political expediency, but you have to bear in mind that without a stronger device to accept, the double-edged sword that holds everything together would make fusion too difficult to achieve and mankind would not be able to unfuse.

Presumably, they'll argue the same thing about the Keystone XL Pipeline being "one of Hillary's greatest accomplishments and, one hopes, one of Barack's if he is elected." Tossing campaigns under the bus in favor of securing key cabinet positions is completely acceptable to Donald Trump and does not look exactly like a conviction. We can safely assume he thinks he's delusional. "He has a narcissist's belief," a former campaign adviser told New York Magazine. "His biggest mistake was when he thought he could take on the establishment and win." Sadly, we've already seen an effective demonstration of that narcissist's belief.

This week's focus is the Chronic Trauma of Firefighters and with its recent one of its share of tragedies that have caused towns and cities to close fire stations. The first fire in Enid, Oklahoma was on April 24, 1974 in the town of Enid in unremarkable Smith County where Anchor had overhead a warning shot resounding all across the town. With 1,100 people dying in the tornado that followed, Enid's fire ravaged and burned for eight months. As the 22 pages of documents released to The Enid News recently released, it becomes now easier to understand why the town's residents voted a generation later to kill the fire stations back in 1997. So what happened and when did the Enid Fire Fighters Union give in to racism? - -In 1980's. when Enid's Mayor Frank Burns sought approval of a plan to construct a new fire station in a space currently occupied by an elementary school the union, conducting what will be confirmed as racial cleansing, along with Burns, fought the plan saying it was against the union's values. - -"My union did everything in its power from that point on to throw our union into the gutters to give the vote to the white workers at these undertows," said Bob Swanson, former President of the union. "No, I fucking did." - -In perpetual conflict with Mayor Burns Captain Mint not only opposed this or any under built firehouse but stated that efforts were clashed in Enid are instead taking inches off property for private use or subdivision zoning. This further strained relations in an already strained community. - -In 1983 Sam Walker, the USA Chief Fire Officer testified on for the Committee Hearing under oath that compañeros denied a membership to persons whose honor he knew was worth more than most of the members of the Chattanooga his fire station had compensated in its attempts to train emigres."That position among emigres has leads to some very strange scenarios that I wouldn't be a third generation fireman in this town if I did not raise my voice against," said Walker. - -Because Enid lacked a fire men's retirement program most of the volunteers left but with the fire station mothballed the local pension brought in the contributions needed to bring in its number a smaller fire fighters union, as part of its struggle with Orr, the Dixie Nursing Association, and other captive unions the union signed a federal settlement agreement on provisions of their liability insurance the contract was as follows: "If after one year(18 months) of stopping hostilities Loyal Shepherd County Fire Protection Bird Mountain Fire Company shall have remained unrepresented in fighting any fire, the company shall indemnify the Union for the out of pocket costs of the Union's own and other volunteers performing work involving medical assistance(front line medical assistance) or rendering justification for treating persons injured restrengthened their idea of risking their property and the Union's life for anyone.

From 2009 through 2012, sewage overflows into rivers and lakes at alarming rates -- ending up in the Great Lakes, Epicencinch Creek and the Animas River. From 2010 through 2013, wastewater leaked into the river near Albuquerque due to a flatbed truck release in the town of Devil's Lake. This event happens at a rate of almost 4 million gallons once per year. Per the report, "At least three more transmission more than 6,400 feet long or smaller, or a total of 381 large pipe breaks involving inactive TPW's″CA overall, were reported from other states of CO, NV, CO, NM, and SD during the same time. In Northeast PA, West Virginia and TN, nearly 400 unique from 2011-2012. - -According to EPA data, in November 2009, more than a billion gallons of diesel and gasoline spilled into the Animas River. In response, the EPA ordered the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) to stop issuing certificates of compliance (COI) to oil and gas "pipeline operators" during October 2013 and March 2014. CDPHE has finished up their respective COI review process. Numerous new COI violations have been documented since then. If these new incidents continue, then we wonder how long it will take​​ ??? - -Now consider Morris intake expressed as a percentage of Total Liquid Discharge. In 2013, it increased from 21,774,017 to 22,366,623. This is a 110% increase from an almost zero intake during the beginning of the new millennium. The numbers look nearly amazing, right?

It would be the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, rapidly reached the third article of commerce, that added a creative fanciest twist to Lamarck's original plan. These days, Professor Mary Haskins admits, "Lamarck was still very manly." But Marion commanded things that were not easy to attain. Among these was class privilege. Since he had been awarded a seat in the senate, he became aware that if ever he could apply his scientific expertise to political goals, he might just as well profit from it as he might. He mastered a field of mathematics to such an extent that, his biographer Lee Fetter, writes, he was "equal to Newton and Laplace, under the same circumstances, whereas the open Mathematics of [his standard] Magnets stood well itself." Like Galileo, Jourdanise McCullou in her library research has found Marion's handwriting to be neither elegant nor commonplace. The variety of notation, which "expresses a type of meaning in a unique way, and provides various educational tools." is remarkable in many ways: Marquesene's idiosyncratic married couple lettering and footnotes, his intentionally obfuscated name. In L.S. Lamarck: His Study and Character, Coates presents "the first view of the man himself as we have him," a person dreamed up by his extensive article towards the end of his life, anticipating Darwin. Miss McCullou's "Lamarck Reading: Senior Citizens" collection seems to be the perfect place to start locating this notoriously elusive composer. In 1982 Kully Gailum inspected the Presidential plates in the Henry Government Building. A magnifying glass developed the coverage hanging inside these small plaster figures: some come large and throaty while others are as little as seven inches high. Later, she bought three-inch moving images of these pictures. Intriguingly, on her website, Gailum points out that the numbering system could be used to observe the progress of health and the milestones associated with various scientific discoveries. 'When comparing the figures, we see that, just a bit later, the legs and feet begin to become matted together. However, when the legs begin to fuse, we make out more than the entire torso and lungs taking on an incorporated form. -======================================== SAMPLE 449 ======================================== -Take a little bit from the past, and twist it into something new - -Everyone is encouraged to their own unique idea about what the "Roo" can be after meeting some like minded participants!

If get enough of your lies I dont think many people take it seriously, but that is not very different from anything else. Some people really want to be called a bigshot. There are a small minority of them who dosen't even want to be called that, and the rest would so care about whatever label they were given. No matter what, self-proclaimed incels talk crap like you (and I) always expect its going to stop one day. It doesnt, not...that either. - - -Take this blog as an example. It was created as a joke between two friends who had fought already last year over who would be the better lover... one of them is only 20-something and claims to be with 7 women right now, and "was told by girls to be with the older ones" (so either no pussy here, or he simply cant meet them all.) I'm sure 98% of the people here are just sharing their own stories. Like you read over your latest "meet and make love with a girl" concoction that went horribly wrong. Five years from now you'll look back at this shit and laugh, "What a loser, he didnt even realize he had two balls!" - - -Put your faith in a couple of attractive girls to start your game with, and be grateful that you have even tried at all with women in the first place. Even if you got your foot in the door, your chances are pretty low of making any sort of progress with any face. Hunky guys can fuck any girls with pretty much impunity provided they are competent enough. Your best chance for success in terms of actual sex is to not have any confidence whatsoever with women - just because a girl liked you once and offers a blowjob every now and then, it doesnt mean it will like you back for long if a sober dragon drowns it in/fucks it clean. You dont know shit about relationships and your reservations and fears and insecurities will only have a short shelf life. You need to be dreaming of officially placed in the wing beyond Bellyache Lane, where the doubts and tits drop look and the deft lips turn you inert until the taxi arrives at your doorstep. The last chance to pull that off will be with a girl who really aspires to be with non-alpha guys. Get that girl to drop her pants for you with that very real expectation and she is de facto going to settle down by the time you come to realize you can make her smile for longer than a couple button pushes. - - -Honestly, the best thing you can do is to meditate on the fact that there will be no SEX for you anyway. It is as simple as that. Natural selection favored those that had *real* convictions about sex, and you wont find a higher percentage of girls that really want to please you by being your strutting smarm doll or height luck for wanking vacantly while her throat is being held open by a parasitic clubby dude. In fact never trust guys you talk to about this stuff. They have absolutely OBSESSED on how women parent their children, and are always goin on about it. Seriously. - - -Perception is EVERYTHING. Most guys claim to love cunnilingus when they actually suck dick moist enough to....vagina? Nah.

There are more than 400 villages and some 290 hospitals, colleges and universities. - -The stance of its 17-member House of Councillors in response to the base referendum changed in 1992, finding support from the majority of city officials. - -Civilian police may be on base reportedly wants residents to be more cautious in unfamiliar neighborhoods, though, not much notice, supposedly, is taken of warnings of numerous home break-ins rather than patrols.

The expenditures on food, housing and other necessities forced home owners to buy food and other essentials from local merchants, some of whom are now vicious bosses then strangle labor unions that organize competitors in the regional and national economy. - -"The western Republicans as members of the House are fewer people than Japanese are," for instance, response from the office of voting balloting mayor Arisugawa Fukao to a probing question about the good deeds of the active base guards in recent geography maneuvers, from establishing rising Okinawan flags to telling people throwing rocks at the U.S. Marine helicopter to stop.

Basically, Dr. Amy, I want to give the ideal standard of care to all FBPC patients, which can't be achieved if we don't educate about Breast Cancer. Thank you in advance for your time. Ron T - -I am worried that one of my friends said "It's ok doctor Amy, it will never happen to me" since she works in a hospital and has had a long time radiation and chemotherapy treatments. As someone with breast cancer I don't think it's a lie to say that someone has had it, you just have nightmares about it, but strangely when somebody on this site said "It is ok boss!" his reaction of "Wow!" and that he shuts herself out (happy!) makes me suspicious of how he/"she/they" in your hospital did. Anyway my fear is that if someone doesnt get surgery the next day bc of a lack of oxygen and scared a nurse would connive it to go away and nobody knows that its then an unrelated thing like weird irregularity(did they humor transgender guns today?). Remember mammograms that are never done because the maimed is so depressed, the women they leave no test like restless leg syndrome, or a fatigue back because of give a bout weight loss or makes no choice, or they end up some is dying either on REra to try to save her shot of hormones amount or because of her fundies or shes lost her darling baby that she leave so alot to not being able to watch the health for life. **************************************************************************** Perkins Opening Desk Province, TC 91 682 8005 ext.68-11 - -Bio: Vicky Perkins, CNA and WB, AB -======================================== SAMPLE 454 ======================================== -Ruby Hart as Marion 1 - -I have a new favorite Salt Lake City women's soccer match. And you probably know why. - -Ruby Hart saved what was basically the game in the 54th minute Saturday afternoon. Hart, once again, wasn't surrounded by her fellow midfielders. Instead she moved between the channels, fielded shots from the outside and was inches away from tipping over a cross with little to no effort. - -That's a solo assist. When your team is looking to create a late breakthrough in the game, you will steal a goal when needed most. - -Unfortunately, that might've been the difference. The Saint Louis FC (7-0-4) trailed 1-0 after 30 minutes until a goal from Lynn Williams. The goal was on the league's PDL Team of the Week and took an uncharacteristic United States team to the next level. - -United States not showing up - -The United States women have been down on form this tournament. On the heels of a 1-0 loss to France on Friday night, they didn't control at even strength against a Saint Louis team out going for a goal and win. - -The USA only managed to put its four shots on goal in the first 15 minutes. - -On the bright side of the disappointing beginnings the U.S did manage to really use its pace. Wambach was praised for her speed Monday morning by U.S. coach Jill Ellis. That was evident against the Hammers, though it currently does not effect her game. - -The United States is thus far having its worst tournament of the modern era when it comes to its ability to put a shot on target. - -Harkes was shocked to see the team struggling in fitness and trailing so far behind after their end of last play. - -"We need to take a bunch of training days to get some heart into it next week. We're still in first place with 10 games to go, so it's not a huge deal. But for us, we've gotten pretty low. They were good on Friday but we haven't lost all year and we have really deserved to win a game in here. - -"We have had some really good wins. There are two more this week." - -The Red Stars' not-so-good record - -From a political standpoint, it was unfortunate that the United States didn't get that much production out of their top two midfielders. You can't win games based of position when one of them on the field is post game suspended. - -Knowing what the stats said, Tranmere de Visser (2-6-1) should've at least won the ball right back from Maria Gonzalez in the heavy denial. She's been solid in that role. - -Stefan Hurwitz, on the other hand, didn't fare all that well. The then of first year club Morgantown (WVU) suffered an injury in the second half that sidelined him with a torn ACL. Considering he's the left-sided defensive midfielder controlling the center, that was big news to much of the announcing audience Saturday. - -On the bright side, the Red Stars are actually the second youngest team in the women's league. The minutes have accordingly begun to trust veteran goalkeeper "Jenny" Nichols into a more prominent role, including handling key fouls. - -Qualifying to USA 2016 - -The top teams in the tournament still get to participate in the 2016 Olympics to be held in Russia to replace those from 2015. - -"It's absolutely a great experience. It's also a tough cup and you don't know what's going to happen," Red Stars head coach Rory Dames said afterward. "What I'm looking for now is to a) get the players back around. Finally get some bonding. Almost had a winning spirit going into the games against Seattle without playing each other. We're eager going into Toronto without seeing each other. It's a difficult one in my opinion, but try to go into this with a sense of one practiced standard. Here in Vancouver, we're different. We do have some of our depth back and it's going to be a battle for a top spot in the women's league." - -Want more history?

After the town's high school wins a state rep championship for its new band, the band's charismatic, fact-challenged leader, Clown, organizes the group into a bourgeois yet isolated style of jam band and transforms them into a teen apocalypse. The boys make lots of loud noise that always gets comedians from the national talk show circuit on the show, Seinfeld, none more conveniently than Zeb, Zep, Selection and voiced by the setup to an episode of Family Guy, Seinfeld. Serving their purpose as a foil for the other louts. - -Down-to-earth life author Joan Price follows Zeb, the dumb jock, with musical talents as he flees the troupe as it hits the national zeitgeist, auditioning for Seinfeld with an outlandish interruption in his readings that makes Bill Lumbergh's famous words from the final baseball finale hold irrelevance. Additionally, there is heaping helpings of clunking bad boy Roscoe, the skunky cross-dresser who drinks champagne off the balcony of every blank hotel in Los Angeles, and Courteney Cox's devious ex-wife-uncle Heath, battling with Zeb for control of all the popular, self-made social margins in town. - -"The book is brilliantly told and writes exuberant prose that one needs to read and reread because it's only compelling and addictive on repeat reading," Gord Occia said. "My only intent was to send the reader rumbles of delight and a healthy dose of derision mixed in, working intimately with the proverbial boys as their drama unfolds." - -As an acceptance speech to an older class of alumni, Zeb executes an act of bitter revenge that is the key to this often-more powerful story, instigating a series of events that disrupts the lives of the definite pants of finance, advertising, sports and entertainment. Soon, the lout syndrome sets in over Orange County. The boys gothically mangle their skills and go missing slowly, thereby transforming the entire art form of live episodic television comedy…into an unreal genre and makes the world of music, art, whatever all an infantilizing hallucination wherein destination Moon Someplaces is a suspended animation involving medical helicopters, morals that keep homeland subjective and NSFWflik maybe're your ISP as a non-limiting benefit is still unofficially operating. - -"All of it calls back to spaceflight in its hyperreality."

"Moon Someplaces" was an Act I location TV New Mexico volume, wherein the cast of Friendship is Magic participated in a live TV monologue by William Shatner. - -Joan Price and Elie Mystal started the series with each team's feel-good stories finally coming to fruition. The main characters aren't exposed too heavily until act II when the really juicy stuff begins to happen. Sharon Hill sticks around for a couple more years as a frontier town interior baby rather than a smear hustler, leaving the house cup overflowing and a nationwide supermodel without a heart to help in the avatar's dental bore. Jon Stone, is outta town but not far: god knows from the internet where he has gotten to. And Don Carolla, is the one who turns down awards, strives to be higher income and friends with Rita Moreno who works them her way to the top in Southern California.

Hagins was the first to bring back in the day potential Ersan Ilyasova, welcoming him to one of his T-shirt companies around the NBA. - - -Cauley-Stein left Hawaii recently for North Dakota State after an awesome first season with the St. John's Red Storm. The Blue Jays (9-9), who just narrowly missed a NCAA Tournament trip with a game to play, are a chance to find out Cauley-Stein's fit in a post-Melo world.There were plenty of well-bearded vets talking it up throughout the first day of the event: Jamal Murray and Sterling Brown offering advice, Kristaps Porzingis reviewing film and new Tristan Thompson offering advice on conditioning. Those guys are joined by a locker room is filled with plenty of NBA talent.Josh Richardson of the Miami Heat, who was drafted two spots ahead of Cauley-Stein, is now the rookie in the conversation for Okafor.com's Player of the Year. Richardson is probably the most NBA and 2017 rookie-eligible player making Jahlil Okafor look silly.Cauley-Stein was even asked about playing alongside fellow WNBA rookieand if he was getting mixed up in all the nonsense. Cauley-Stein, who goes by Dawg on the street, said he was willing to play with or against anybody on the team, including his older brother, Jahlil, if he needed to travel together, and did so.He spoke about starting the 2016-17 season in the post and doing his best to grasp the system when not in the starting lineup."The way it works now are no cuts, no rotations. If you touch the ball in pick-and-roll with no rotations, they'll call a foul. You don't want to have like five kids jumping over moves where guys are coming close," he said of the fast style of play as the minutes allotted were down. "... A lot of times, guys (are) having fun coming around and running down a guy. They could just give them a little whistle like scissors. But, when there's unnecessary contact, right there it's not very fun.You come out of slow motion after the jump ball and think about what happened there. But, enough is enough. We've just got to go after it."Play ball.Always the attitude of an underdog, Cauley-Stein did not take the games seriously before his strong freshman year at Wisconsin.One hit, a halfcourt heave that was negated by a travel, was all it took for he and his team to crash three hotels. The bad blood resulted in a three-game suspension to Hagins and the intransigence resulted in the 6-7 and 245-pound Cauley-Stein complaining about not being called to foul out in a March 26 win over the Illinois Fighting Illini. Holographs were printed up nevertheless. The Cinderella share of the budget Wabash tied with Bemidji State and Jamestown State in their longest streak of non-losses was snapped Tues."I don't think his attitude was negative," Hagins said. "You're dealing with a young kid who should never be told what he needs to do. He wants to be around his teammates, he wants to do whatever he can to help this team. I think he was frustrated. That's my understanding.Now these games are gonna turn deep."Hagins had been everything one would look for someone to be in such a loaded draft class. He rarely had interviews, really. He sported a young Jesus hat and was scheduled to perform at Dakota Tech for personals several times in the coming fall. The handwritten "easy to get punched in" assuming his name was simplygin Ammon in the draft provided big value to teams, while the character hard could overcome that with not only some 16 dunks and 42.7 percent from behind the arc, but also Special Teams Leader but Beneath the Ceiling Reed will lay mountaintop shimmy.Not so really anymore all the way.Since June 19 , 2016, the former Aggies Men's Lacrosse will be the number for his personal development squad.

The Latvian official is now the group's acting president. - -It is alleged that as a result of favouritism by Mendes and Menu1, some seven bidders wanted to buy 50 per cent of PSG, when only two actually emerged despite PSG's lack of moving parts. - -Mendes and Menu1 agreed with Gazidis to sell 49 per cent of the club to Mendes and his partners, who planned to buy the survivors' stake – accepted as part of the debt – through a private placement of the shares. Instead, Mendes and his partners effectively personally held on to the first 10 per cent of the club. None of the creditors can afford to buy into the shares, despite Mendes' theory that selling them would "spur demand" and thus the shares would be a good investment. - -A delay in the sale process is now regarded as the immediate cause of the homelessness crisis at Crotone, where fired Compl FCC Building collected ignominious campaign contributions during his two terms in office on the basis that he was "the best friend everyone had." - -The club's current owner Fabrizio Calmero resigned this month after this correspondent revealed that the football director went on BKV which is itself owned by ALB Sports & Leisure, which subsequently said that since the shares were seated, its position had been "continue to buy safe, regulated securities – the interest rate is fixed.

Although it has joined fiddler waltzes to imbecilic naturalists, the grass-is-always-greener comparison is by no means comparable, so let us pause for a moment and shift the focus. Whereas Cuts has a focus, the Veronicas has a flow, without any emphasis on the presentation. Why is this? Partly because all the music from three different roles is exercised on the same instrumental repertoire. In this regard Florence Speirs mines a whole range of compositions from the same medley of instrumental figures, effectively freeing up the singer to attend to sounds in all the seats. It might seem an odd assumption for the other pairs of roles that more effectively maintain a continuous or coherent accompaniment, performed in different arrangements. But in fact it is only the minimal composition in each role which allows such arrangement. Bach's "variations" and Handel's "pianos" separated by just a mediatory solo are texualized by the neatly constructed version of the breaststroke. (By comparison that makes Worzel Dow, one-woman-band with the July King, look like the muses of noisy socks.) Accordingly, parallel copyright law of the sort which has allowed David Evans and Jeanette Winterson to enjoy the prominence granted them by Prokofiev and Stravinsky should be applied to these compositions. Like them, Florence Speirs has allowed the complete disseminative rights of her work to the common band, and as with the material from keyboards to the frets, she has possible expanded distribution within and across time from what her mother dreamt up the moment of birth. Professional bands of Cuts, Handel and many newer ones carrying on the model of Cuts spend years and millions of dollars reinventing themselves to play their voices. They construct entire performers, including a transcription staff, a professionally supervised voiceleading scores, new harmonies, new solos, new combinations and endless permutations of each. The processes celebrated by the avantgarde are built into a music. And to magnify such tasks by injecting their denizens into a previously offered context is every bit as valid an artistic gesture as the occasional repeated pointed service of Wagner, the music that was actually played. (There are still corrosive cases of passive distributors operating the public domain. With these old viruses surely, too, comes the latent threat of the evil eye.) But no virtuoso's cupboard is bare for letting the public exercise the fullest expressions possible. Hence the sections to tremolo, contrapuntal ukuleles, neo-classical filters, Father Bach and duets with Mater Grades 17 and 18. It also encompasses bits of the very contemporary puritans striving to turn the radical into the conventional. The Veronicas, in terms and format as with other arena medleys, has few boundaries, so long as there are the mouths of nails and the opening of telegraph poles to sustain it with echoes. The help if be to forego vision and dive in as experienced from a distance. "Smallly presented" simply means rehearsals. Their practicality, as early competitors for the word association records set, added to the arcane practiscibility of an extremely long quintet cycle bequest. Instead of engendering even greater skepticism, the Veronicas inspires "eerie fascination". This is not faint praise, as Milton's "reminder on recital" crystallizes perfectly what this audience is looking for; "Smallly presented" is an exquisite exception to this finding, a vibrant world music reaching back beyond established convention not so much to expose beyond revision or interpretation and beyond the stylistic personality but to radiate a specific award conversation beyond such forms. Jance Django's version of Orfeo's Children presages the good faith Harmony 1919 will demonstrate. Few drama writers will judge Ada Lovelace and Charles Babbage in the same light. (ha'poss 'oo.) Few singers will once shepherded on progress boses de belles to gain silences and stage turns as Dante, Don Juan and Tito. It is but a short step from Mozart to George Herbert to weirder Frank Zappa, and we can set up the scenario either way inasmuch as it is an important function of the Veronicas to add such stimulation to collected sound, to fructify material which was heretofore known only in its native melodic form — and this lay-within "modulation" mechanism perhaps gives us confirmation that parts of 16 and 9 are replocable without adherence to conventional terms for the prescribed value of determinate originals. In Concierto de Aranjuez, Cuts sings Don Jose (or rather Bernhard of Glarus), the opening overture that sees six carefully rehearsed viciss -======================================== SAMPLE 462 ======================================== -Eight teams overall are in the running to become the next American team to enter the FIFA Women's World Cup.

It is a measurement of your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) through a color-changing substance and is conducted at an accredited laboratory, such as NMS Labs in Fort Lauderdale. - -The Law - -For purposes of identifying the Breathalyzer test result, a defendant must show a "positive" result if the defendant possesses or possesses with the intent to sell or furnish substances to produce, prepare for, or use a driver's high. Under a practice known as aggravated circumstances, the statute provides for a three-year minimum and a maximum of five years of probation for a first offense. With the defense of diminished capacity, the three-year minimum can be reduced to 1½. - -Button Question Practical Tips - -Should a person refuse the breathalyzer test? - -Q: What if a person refuses the breathalyzer test but fails to show up for a court date? - -A: A defendant must first serve a one-hour license suspension before a court. If a court fails to take the defendant into custody and subsequently wants to hear evidence against the defendant, the defendant must appear for a court date within ten days. If a defendant waives his right to a court date, the court should assess a 90-day to 180-day suspension at one time. Prior to that date the person will not be able to get back into society and should seek treatment. - -Q: What happens if a person refuses to take a breathalyzer test? - -A: A person who refuses to take a breath test is guilty of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, a felony offense. The driver can get a third DUI conviction within 172 years by refusing to take a test, which can mean up to five years in jail. If a person refuses the test, or if they call their attorney and tell the court that they did not take the test or that the request is not authorized under the driver's privilege, the court can choose to follow up with a plea of contempt or not hold a hearing until the test results come back. Guilty pleas may lead to an additional fine in excess of $5000 for the DUI offense. Guilty pleas may also result in detention in jail until the breathalyzer test results come back. Because the first defendant was not arrested (and was not – for purposes of this fact pattern – conducted a Breathalyzer test), he has proven to be someone who has not been able to comply with the direction and whom has violated his probation or a condition or order of court. However, the second defendant was arrested on a DUI, so his DUI (the result of tampering with the Breathalyzer test) was the one fact pattern. Precisely what the alcohol concentration was before the tampering differed depending on facts not divulged by the defendant between the two prior convictions. When a judge gets that information from the DUI breaker (something born about making assaults into trapped felonies), it needs to be put in a manageable and manageable fact pattern. The second defendant, with an indistinguishable record from the first, gave no deleterious information for the court to consider. In its mathematical gravity, failure to respond questions of scientific materials poses more credible status than testimony in an ongoing case that in the context could cast doubt on even a DUI committed by the first defendant. - - -Above all, a refusal to take a breathalyzer test is not a heinous crime. Whether a person takes a breathalyzer test or not has no bearing on whether or not they can be trusted with a firearm. If a gun owner considers himself as second amendment freedom fighter who should be able to dominate the handgun carry free enterprise market, he will do so regardless of how his license is going to be started. - -Q: What if a person refuses to take a -======================================== SAMPLE 465 ======================================== -LEGO showed off the fifth and last Star Wars block last year with Cars Land, very little has been heard about the future of that game since.

In many parts of the country, including states like Michigan and Pennsylvania, it often comes as a surprise to students who aren't getting an automatic pay bump after years of impressive quality of education. While the change in minimum wage has caused some cancellations on renewal contracts at many schools, many of those students aren't blatantly benefiting from it. In ultra-expensive needs-based districts, support from taxpayers of these students who aren't getting a bump has been growing. - -It's important to note that education funding doesn't happen according to what we as students received in our tuition bills. Those pools and savings funds exist, as do the cash reserves maintained by school districts. And educators pay some students' expenses like per diems, gas, and school supplies out of those pools and savings in varying degrees. - -While schools all over the country have been pulling back on some of their academic subjects and consulting it as a reason to keep entering a class or three, it appears that traditional funders have also seen a need to boost benefits and raise the minimum wage. But schools that are already strapped for funds will most likely continue to work to save spending elsewhere. A low tuition has been a major luxury for many schools, which will take some creative financial planning to ensure their lowest population rates still meet the amount of spending needed to provide a high degree of education for students in a sustainable fashion. - -Education Spending Alternatives Really Compelling - -Instead of the more traditional, immediate revenue cuts that governing boards in states such as Michigan are taking, areas like Detroit are more likely to increase a number of college programs and vocational instruction services beginning at the high school level, if only for a short period. Doing so will save schools and individual students in the long run in the money and labor necessary to maintain this level of education. - -Also, where compulsory programs such as pre-k are struggling financially, auxiliary programs will arise to provide similar time frames and professional test preparation while making up for some of the costs of basic curriculum updates. - -Not only can educators look around and see their schools are lavishing even more dollars on student services, educators can also look around and see that many university courses are only affordable about half of what students pay at their community colleges, which comes out to two grand a sitting at U-M – or an outlay of $1,542 a year per student, or around $24,000 a year per student. Resources like those enough for students who might walk out of school for cash, and then have a devastatingly expensive second thing to worry about, what with these factors that probably feel limited or meaningless. - -It's all connected, though, if we extend the same listening and pouring of resources -======================================== SAMPLE 466 ======================================== -Results: 1,111 blood samples were selected for culture for CTCAE-positive presence.

The Church has an outstanding teaching on the higher moral level one should strive after, a teaching known as The Golden Rule, whose teachings were imported into the way early Christian saints tended to be. Earlier Jews and Muslims also taught high moral ambitions, and indeed, during the horror of World War II, it was the British government that actually did most of the of the heavy lifting to help Jews to avoid certain death at the hands of the Nazis. The Jews who survived were, once again, the most moral and the best citizens of their nations, exemplars of "kindly compassion and kind treatment" (see the Hillel lectures by Rabbi Jonathan Sacks of the University of Chicago which "describe this remarkable unselfishness in masterful detail").

Relatives of the pontiff, including his brother, Pope Paul VI, are reportedly asking that all religious services not be held in Latin unless the Vatican authorizes them. While there've been some clashes in the past, most notably a prioress démarche during the papacy of John XXIII, this unilateral action by Russia is a dramatic escalation in the aggressive behavior of Russian President Vladimir Putin. - -The Pope's successor was known for being competitive and hard to get along with, a trait that was reinforced by his highly unorthodox style on global affairs and shrewd grasp of public opinion. Lounges from Vatican City opened over the years, but most were locked by the Russia emoluments, or "Russian taxes". Then in 2000, a new law was enacted forcing Vatican banks to move money on international markets to a Moscow institution which they did not want. This was an international sanction against the Pope visiting Russia. Moreover, the pope was also under scrutiny for related offshore companies during the investigations that started in the early 2000s. - -The Russian protests to the Pope were over two stances: in 2005 the new priest was revealed to be the father of a pre-schooler (who was born after his marriage) and another man, together duting illegitimate children whose birth was probed by Italian prosecutors. Although the Vatican had declared the women innocent and took no action, the relevant antiterrorism units from Vatican City were poised for a crackdown on in-born, Americanizing Russians. Still, when Cardinal Ramon Lachman was proposed as the new Apostolic Nuncio to Russia, the Vatican said it was willing to consider his nomination on another condition:: that he publicly announce that the Pope remained "a Roman-Catholic in all his spiritual aspects, including apostolic succession". - -Lachman did so, but after failing to change the Russian president's mind, is believed to have demanded that a Christmas Mass in Moscow be held in Russian unless the Vatican approved such a celebration in Farsi. Naturally, Russia vetoed the American's idea. This provoked a significant diplomatic clash with the United States led by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and political defections from Primate Albano Vallejo Vieira, one of Lachman's Vatican biostate attendants, and Cardinal Francesco Coccopalmerio, one of Lachman's biostate attendants. - -In the ensuing meeting between Grande Russie and Peace Corps-style, the two set the tone as expected: instead the Cardinal insisted on Kurbanishating them, by having them sign a communion symbol made by Moscow. Amid grumbling, Ivanov bestowed an sesame bag on Lobauss (3), at which point Lachman exclaimed: "Fool on horseback – shove your hand down your pants." The hostile reactions from both the Vatican and Russia culminated in Ivanov recompromising the prayer ritual in the desires of rigor idealo. Utrum Psalter, 'Master and Vice President of Russia leader', was rechristened "The Peace Book", to the consternation of the Russian delegation which is still demanding that the annual Roman Couplets Salutis be cancelled at the gates of St Paul's. - -Finally, in a possible attempt to quell the war between Rome and the Empire, a lower level representative "Under Secretary" from Russia joined Lachman, the Curia, and Yaroslavl at a Holy Year's dinner. The ambassador even acknowledged Cardinal Coccopalmerio and his reply began with the words, "Your Holinesss" but this did nothing to ease tensions. Outwardly, these episodes of impasse led to an improved relationship with Russia with Vatican's president Jose Zavada hoping to "improve the situation on the Sochi concession which is exploited by patriots'. 2 - -While the world observed Putin's deep diplomatic standoff against the Catholic church, the Polish priest denied the pontiff's thephyremata, saying that at the end of the day: "he is still the successor of Saint Peter and the patriarch of Rome, a personality as unchangeable as the carbon atom, etc." A few around the world took the exclamation as a reliable warning however, such as Pope Benedict XVI who said: "If it's true, perspectives are threads, there are no secrets, etc." Nonetheless, something is clearly wrong, which is detailed in this article on NikitasBolite. - -Sources: - -Russian media – RT tributes – Russian MoD Broadcasting – Amos If, Specialist, Revcascínatos Putin, IpsosMedias, WORDS ON POLYEWONDS, die Vatican News, Agence France Presse, IIPRS, Rius Inversinis. - -www.thepopeisgay.com. -======================================== SAMPLE 472 ======================================== -United States Supreme Court DERSIGN v. WATT, (2011) No. 10-5008 Argued: February 26, 2011 Decided: June 3, 2011 - -Petitioner Anthony Dersign, a vice principal in Southeastern Louisiana University (SULU), argues that a Louisiana statute (described in detail in the opinion for the Court) violates the First Amendment by prohibiting him from speaking on campus about his opposition to same-sex marriage. The statute, he says, is a viewpoint-based restriction on his protected expression. Specifically, he argues, it fails to "demonstrate a compelling state interest in support of a finding based upon the (judging) content of [his] speech." The State responds that its law ensures academic freedom, that Dersign should counteract his opposition to same-sex marriage not by talking about it, but by discussing the issue at greater length in class. Professor Storbeck argues that the statute does not marshal sufficient evidence to justify a finding of viewpoint discrimination. She argues that the purpose of speech restrictions like the one at issue in this case is not to preserve academic freedom but to suppress speech that offends even those on the receiving end of those speech restrictions. She reasons that if Dersign can't agree to discuss same-sex marriage in class, he can't be stopped from speaking about it in the classroom by the sanction of an antiabortion law. - -Held: - -The Court must consider the evidence in the light most favorable to Petitioner. Pp. 28-32. - -Justice Breyer, joined by Justice Alito, concluded that Louisiana's proposition that "mesmerizing, disturbing, intolerable, or invalid arguments" threaten educational institutions' autonomy is not constitutionally permissible. Pp. 38-50. - -Justice Sotomayor wrote the opinion of the Court with respect to Part I, concluding as follows: - -The First Amendment mandates a more demanding standard for a restrictive speech statute's justification. The statute penalizes speech solely because it recommends a definition of marriage that some, likely many, people find offensive, which the government may then allegedly promote through a governmental figure's visible, visible dissemination of that message. In the abstract, the definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman is surely no fundamental political interest of this State. It lacks the fundamental substance advocated by marriage registrars and the voters, and the same intimate relation with family and the state embraced by the Second Amendment. The State may stifle a speaker's expression of personal disagreement in private, as did petitioner in this case, but it cannot suppress a speaker's comical depiction of its law sanctioned definition of marriage. The Court finds that § 15-11-61 that is found at packaged bread, AMetamax operators championing Islamically intolerant views on homosexuality, political correctness, and the First Amendment several years ago. Not all speech, including speech critical of convicted murder, disparaging affirmative action policies, or inciting readers to riot, may be banned. Here, in part because of the Government's guardianship of religion, section 15-11-61 applies. Planned Parenthood saves unborn life -- eighths of a human life. · Onconsistent with the First Amendment free exercise clause upheld in Nyquist v. Mauclet, the provision provides a program of governmental preferential counseling, abstinence education, and abortion and pregnancy termination With kids' health and survival in fact, disregards whatever sad confusions the Government's fear may dim. The first goal of a First Amendment, protected speech is not to conform others' beliefs to our own, but to make those beliefs bearable. When we speak, we are endowed with the freedom to differ and exercise the liberal choice of dissenting views at a time when many people believe with good reason that the First Amendment is dead and its blessing has departed with it, to play in the national dialogue across differences of opinion with others writing, speaking, and publishing with the freedom to challenge ideas, even when those ideas are harmful and even silly. - -Justice Sotomayor, with whom Justices Ginsburg, Breyer, and Kagan joined in Part II, concurring in part and dissenting in part, found nothing in § 15-11-61 to justify the burden it imposes: - -The Court concedes that more speech is not always poison. Louisiana may attempt to weed out crude speech that supports harmful beliefs, as this statute attempts to do with Dersign's opinion and with the commercial promotion of redefinition of marriage. One court has holding that a statute that calls for abolition of slavery . . . requires question-begging, factual determinations of whether the one engaged in the speech is using the power of government to demean another.

" ----George Knepp -George Knepp, 'Reflecting on the beauty and immeasurable kindness of God', Fort St. John, British Columbia - Fri Sept 28, 2012 -"God has the direct ability to communicate with each and everyone. His Christian ministry not only touches people but expands love through faith." Time Magazine - May 4, 2011 -"I'm strange. I'm weird. And I'm beautiful. At the height of his glorified ministry, Jesus Christ, the Son of God spoke these words of love and compassion: "But you are beautiful; you are full of grace, love, and mercy!"...", 2 Thessalonians 1:5. -The gifts that come from God for our repair are miraculous explanations for our limitations to excel in our station in life. There was a hermeneutics in the Old Testament that taught that God, the Son of God, was sent to reveal, interpret, and reveal God's defenses, from the face of the earth to the face of the highest heaven. In the New Testament or Christianity we are also brought into possession of this view, so that there can be no two views of God's power and dominant role.  -God has means, purposes, and motive!  It is not possible to reason without God's revelation of his plans and motives. Without God revelation no perspective or testimony may exist. God revealed himself to Jesus, the Lord ( Luke 1 & John) to the disciples, Paul, and the Reformers when they either traveled with him  in person, or in some other world.  "God revealed himself to Jesus, the Lord, at his second coming . . . . And Paul's own personal experience of God at the Spirit/ light scale (see Unchanged Vision ) is enough to sell every ambition of every teacher and: 'The Lord gives water so that you drink.' ( Job 32:13 ) !" (Irwin, Isaiah 14:20). -Jesus chose to highlight the compassion and the beauty of God by using many examples to demonstrate that what he is talking about is by God: -"Blessed is the one who reads Isaiah. Blessed is the one who takes note of these words and makes them known! (Isaiah 45:1) -In his experience of God's divine and limitless love and mercy he knew that we might share in his omnipotent and all powerful love if we and he would communicate with each other and believe the gospel of Jesus Christ. -God was not an God we saw.

(Photo: Michael Robinson Chavez, European Pressphoto Agency) - -Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump settled on one foreign policy issue to become a flash point in the contest: whether the United States is "going to stay in the Middle East." - -Trump, who recently took the unconventional step of speaking from the convention floor, opened remarks to the delegates by discussing ISIS and Syria before quickly shifting gamely to his main topic. - -"I am not pointing guns at you," Trump said. "Here's what I am saying. I am not saying to throw 18- and 19-year-olds out of the military. That's wrong. That's crazy. But we have to be far better than they are." - -Trump had met privately with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel on Wednesday to discuss the conflict in Syria. Netanyahu told reporters Trump was a "good friend." - -Trump, who has for decades advocated for reducing the number of U.S. troops in the Middle East, said to cheers that the United States should immediately increase resources for both tasks because ISIS has been hit with airstrikes. - -"If you think about the age of almost 90 percent of the changes in this Middle East, it's a result of Bush," Trump said. "I understand this was done by Bush with an inordinate hatred of Islam. That hatred has to be broken out." - -Other Republican party leaders vigorously opposed Trump's position — and he had to walk back from his position piece by piece in conversations with reporters after his speech. - -Trump's vision for training Syrian rebels to retake the city of Raqqa, which the extremists captured, fell apart as he said. Each faction fighting ISIS sure has its own limitations, but Trump's aides had offered minimal specifics on what they would need, only asserting that U.S. trainers would need combat experience from Iraq and Lebanon to move forward. Other GOP candidates said Monday night that taking out ISIS requires coordinating with a nation­state that has either sanctioned or exported the group. - -The readout from the Trump campaign made clear that it had sought meetings with bipartisan foreign policy groups such as the Union for Reform Judaism to develop its strategy. But it was unclear whether those efforts were successful. - -Appearing before the American Israel Public Affairs Committee lobby committee in Washington on Tuesday, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said his opponents weren't concerned about protecting religious freedom in the Middle East because Saudi Arabia "doesn't look at Jews and Christians the same way that Russia does, or China does." - -Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states have pushed back against Trump's proposal, making his position about 14 million people in the region "just really meaningless," Saudi Ambassador Adel al-Jubeir said after the AIPAC speech. - -That broadside from the U.S.'s closest Arab allies underscored the challenge Trump faces in widening his appeal beyond his angry, white working-class base. Saudis, Egyptians and Lebanese had tepid responses after he had posed a question to questioners at a roundtable at the pan-Arab daily al-Hayat last month, about whether Muslims living in America should feel threatened. Although Trump has been well-received in the U.S. for days, some argued that his promise to build a wall to keep out undocumented workers would be anathema to Arabs. - -Middle East experts surveyed by USA TODAY said their nations' views would become more worrisome if he continued to say bad things about Islam.

It was a heavy thought, standing on the dock of that courthouse mocking Adnan's awful errors, R&B videos, romance, and boasting if there was someone who could make him smile. But then I overheard the judge give the jury the word they needed to convict him, Adnan rush storming out of court calling his old friend Jenn, then cutting the fight against Mr. Hae with his F-bomb. When I saw Mr. Adrian follow in Adnan's footsteps, it was like someone stepped into a time machine that came back to change the course of my life.

Ideally the lies be placed on a trail of Facebook admissions, bent compound commas indelibly stenciled in ink on the insides of our lower-case joints and cooked to become their own meal. Without superior element preservatives, the chef would surely beat Hae to death, given the history of circumstances surrounding her murder . . . a churro, a change of clothes, clothes with Bra-routines, some music playing . . . The use of that food will serve as spiritual evidence that any criminal action was entirely out of control, that we were never allowed to venture out beyond ourselves to see what would happen next. If there is to be a new update to The Silence of The Lambs upon its conclusion, I honestly don't know if any examination of alleged crimes can serve to reestablish yourself in this sacred space. Regretfully, what sticks in my memory the most is utter disbelief that an article I participated in two years ago regarding my frustrations with exes on Facebook could still cause a ripple of anger with listeners today. - -One of the most devastating, with the element of infinite transience present, was the thought that every time we listen to The Serial podcast, somewhere in what otherwise would have been a tomb of silence is some virtual death.

Without doubt Chemda's most creatively busy of the three highs was at lunch, choices of (I) chicken fried steak trio with the mustard on the side of Johnny Bravo or a bowl of scrambled egg. Her idea of savoring a meal was to have a small glass of gin, two glasses of white flannel soup, and a gummi mine candies that were sloppily kicked on your fork, a hot plate in the room before your eyes, pre-seriously potentially loaded with years of dry ice memories.

Still, we pause in the midst of these hints and spin forward, closer still, to the middle of my story. ... It is easier to unravel that journey when I am the one telling it." - -A story is a craft is a story is a story comes with a rather formal definition, which is was in the 1950s "an exercise of narrative ... the myth-making of life." The "narrative" is not a literal thing, now it's a general "badge of technology", like the will and wisdom of the state and the ideals and doctrine of capitalism. In principle, all stories are apt to contain a carbon copy of the founding myth; in practice, such a copy is used to settle political agendas through ideological attacks. Little gives away - only day by day, every deliberate turn, every log falling under nothing usual soon becomes an impenetrable cloak - and the secrets, characters and jumps that further the times they written hide, are uncovered over the course of a timespan of about four decades. - -One never knows how the stories will come back and fall apart, while returning to their roots can reveal far more precious facts on what exactly They are. Thomas Mann's "Fingersmith" similarly has huge reverberations not only in the rest of the accompanying story, the framing that "Hungry For Love" sets off, the inside-out of the emotional swerve within that story. - -Public Domain - -Part of Mann's masterpiece is the uncertainty of what exactly it is that prompts a reader to zoom out in their obsession and confront "the two things which constitute the background, or 'equilibrium', of life: woman and love." A search for literature provides clues: "writing whose discovery [is] neither possible nor advisable" makes "for real, as well as imaginary, possibilities"; "the immediacy of (real or imaginary) relationship is quite different if love is involved", while literature is not "only the production of worlds which can account for the origins and forms of desire." - -These aren't words only "she believed in the gods but also in little things; that the little things were true; that they existed even now; that she had told them over and over again and that at the moment they all together made it possible to believe." Like birth, growth and reincarnation; death signifies the reemergence of grace. While the persistent existence of love implies no certainty, such love is "in the foreground of all…as if it could tolerate no doubt." Present as stillness or head, the happiness or "happiness understood as possibility is an influence which is absent in other areas of life". - -Mann avoids crediting any "authorial input" in the historical evolution of the self "Once in the world I am not an independent force." - -Life is lived by "two independent forces: love and knowledge." Art is Supernatural Life which Bergson referred to as "Severing the Kiss". - -Up until "seventy years ago our sources of information were all as uncertain as the Ptolemaic stars themselves." - -The wordsmith by profession is Brother Abel taken from Abelard's Enpropter Ego , whose ideas have recently inspired scimitar-sharp good luck. Whereas in Beckett's earlier stories, those lucky enough to have advanced experience "turned sorrow into something else, modern thinking instead takes a hard path" by choosing "easy and cheap pleasures of now, made easy and cheap by the fallibility of the world." Compare that vast given arch to Beckett's redemption, "opening an honest consciousness" as a double slate affirmation and emasculating the protagonist's "equality let me go." The conservative, neo-traditional take on character development would never allow an erudite man to grow into an enlightenment without extinction; Beckett's writing conveys the intense experience already. - -"I feel like the dipper who holds up the spout of boiling water a little over straight down will swim straight down, while I am still slowly holding the spout up so long that eventually it will blow over me and I will die." Likewise, one might hit the depths but care "to tell what happened to it through a thousand novelistic devices" or reconstruct some dream, wounded soul damage only to aspire to find joy, rest or satisfaction by only choosing happiness and reunion. To truly think of oneself in the right, left or up is to be "different from others, different from the self". - -Built-in conflicts are created between descriptions to "molded together an existing world, not portrayed from outside or from one's own point of view" - a mirror of human confusion brought about by the Augean instability of merch concluded wild adventures and compromises.

Followed by "HTML", "CSS", and Ajax. jQuery is very highly regarded. Web developers rely on jQuery thanks to its flexibility and talent. This section helps you become able to write or customize your own internet applications with 'my' JavaScript. - -jQuery Is Flexible - -HTML is very rigid in its syntax, but jQuery isn't. With its combination with the DOM APIs (like jQuery.fn.bind() ), we can do a lot of pretty wild things with DOM manipulation. jQuery skips the single parameter parsing so it is very flexible. Users are dependent on absolutely nothing, as even if it were possible, you wouldn't do it. The jQuery framework is well documented, go to http://jquery.com to grab the source. - -jQuery Is Highly Composable - -jQuery is easily extensible and extendable. jQuery is built on top of the cross-plugin library jQueryUI instead of being an insular library. We'll be diving deeper into why and how to use similar plugins soon. But for now let us list some of the other abilities that the jQuery framework provides: - -Quick selection with the mouse or arrow keys. - -jQuery also handles custom mouse moves. - -Preferences and auto-fetching. - -Selecting the parent element in the DOM tree of an AngularJS or BackboneJS model. - -Items displayed separately in lists using jQuery::each() . - -. Support for most data formats (Document Object Model). - -fetch - - -jQuery.fn.contains - -Clean and succinct for jQuery selectors. - -jQuery implements all methods jQuery.fn.contains could offer. - -Calculation of zeros and ones with JavaScript's Math.ceil() . - -.

No wonder the Union is celebrating its 150th anniversary today. - -Tasked with drawing attention to employers who fire union members and protest low wages and bad working conditions, USW Local 226 members have done both -- often in large crowds. New York labor law requires that picketers be allowed to demonstrate "reasonably and freely." This can encompass a wide range of attitudes about working conditions, wages and many other social issues that are relevant to open shop. Not surprisingly, many union members understand not giving in when challenged is the price of retaining a job. - - -We try to stay abreast of the picketer hysteria, as illustrated by former New York City Mayor Ed Koch, who last week called out the NYC demo of Microsoft protesters going to New York where the Union is organizing a $15 minimum wage: "They're going to be union labor and talk when needed and sustain the pressure when the union will give it to them. Now they're takeaways dinner, scribbling notes, leaving anything unique for post and say the heck with us. You know what they'll say to that? They'll say, 'Thank you for supporting the strike. We'll be back. At a ride for tips.'" - - -While the picketers get their messages out ahead of many union pickets, understanding nonviolent direct action and tactics can be crucial in averting such incidents. So get on the frontlines of picketing to avoid the potentially traumatic outburst. Take notes for at-home protests and compensation for police incidents, and hopefully these will get you on with a comfortable workday.<|endoftext|>Copy and paste this link into an e-mail or instant message: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Product/The-Legend-of-Zelda-The-Windwaker/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802584109fe?cid=SLink Click to create and send a link using your email application - -Play with your favorite Zelda characters, including Link, Zelda, Impa, Agitha and more.

I have yet to find one which I'd trust for long term duty, but this one worked well for me. It's a 'high power sensor' device which is constantly scanning the pixels of your RGB flying fearfully by, and commands display off as high battery, low battery, or just anti-aircraft. By testing the strip's values in sequence as you take turns flying the strip its very easy to determine if the LiPo battery is running low, and it should be safe to ignore your friend's drunken questions about your sleep cycle if that is the case. - -There are a few tools you'll need to have around for this project (make sure you take a pair of do. job gloves and use your roller blade switch). The Tools needed to mod the strip are a Super glue gun, a leaf spring tester, aluminium foil, aluminium tape, a vibrating knife, an orbiting tool, and an analogue sensor (either an SpitfireIII or mating of the Finals convinc converted terrorist Monday - one MUST be a kestrel!) - -Obviously I didn't picture this step, but you may need to generate a new bit of extruded aluminium if you didn't kitbash your canopy. I salvaged all the bits from a shed because this hobby didn't encourage laziness. If you love modelling, make sure you keep your aluminium sheets right, because it will be necessary in somewhere (I killed my masts for the record!). - -Classy place to start, huh? - -Tip for next time: put aluminium when you go round of forgetting stuff; otherwise your HTML falls of a cliff and KV drops wacky fast! - -Tools I originally used: Super glue gun, leaf spring tester, magnetic tape, aluminium foil, aluminium tape. - -The slice of cake: placing aluminium: - -Grab two bits of foil diagonally, add a bit of aluminium tape to line them up and trim the ends so you have a square that will fit inside your leaf spring tester (or the suprising parts it turns out) (Alternatively a leaf spring tester would be the go once you have the stool up and working properly) - -Because aluminium foil doesn't stick to tape (the adhesive doesn't like it) the tape will stick to the foil, which means you'll need to quickly peel off foil and place aluminium. - -Bingo! Done best in ninety seconds tops, if not more. Force chevrons on tape have hold enough, and since foil helps you identify their contours, sticking aluminium not only keeps scissors in place, but also it protects the seal once you take the foil off. - -Tools I currently use: leaf spring tester, Conduit, vibrating knife. - -Amazingly fast, good looking display, and you can fit bigger displays with you if you want them with bigger piezoelectric sensors..<|endoftext|>The "Columbus poem." painted by William 7 Wilson. President Cleveland was a famous slave owner. When he traveled to Cincinnati, Ohio in 1782 to address the city's Indians Congress, famous slave trader and southern Ohio slaver George W. Worthington McDevitt (father of William W. Thomas) made the trip along with him in an elaborate conveyance and charged the whole crowd of 3,000 people and the dozens of slaves with making sure Ohioans learned "the true policy of a great–mighty statesmen." Once Cleveland got on stage, he "framed and shaped the ideas of his address for his audiences" by talking about the "right of the Americans to obtain, by the labor of their fellow creatures," not drugs, but "the right to clutch the necessity of life." That sort of thing. - -During the Civil War, Confederate Markham House in Richmond released a Confederate grand opera version of the Columbus poem (the lyrical inspiration for that Shakespeare poem made particular reference to a blood-curdling poem written by "the greatest orator of all ages," not by Columbus at all) at a time where southern states insisted that slavery was uniquely supported by higher godliness.

Indeed, we show that speciation can proceed within a species within 400 generations within an avian species, despite a background of gene flow. The value of this result depends on whether we compensate for a lack of gene flow by placing a strong limit on the number of sexual reproduction as with smaller speciated species. We find that selecting for a peaceful community imposes a far larger cost on species speciation than genetic diversity tradeoffs and inherent sexual incompatibilities, a behavior which contradicts the well-established presumption that gene flow can generate even smaller cost.<|endoftext|>Cine those dreaded Death Star, here's the killer art from the upcoming movie, 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens.'

"And I don't think we need to talk about anything." - - -More…Deceptive? What's right in both? Maher has made the case that liberals don't far enough to the left in terms of immigration, after the government abruptly altered one of the least non-controversial parts of the current coalition of left-leaning governments. It began before mid-2011, when a fractious coalition party called an election for June—the last month before Parliament's 2013 timetable. The British right, ahead of the upcoming holiday-ruined election cycle, however, knew that prime minister David Cameron's Conservatives would soon lose power. In recent years—especially after the Conservative Party took office in 2005, thanks to its leader Gordon Brown, who ran as a "New Labor"-ish progressive who wanted a new social-democratic agenda—the British small-business community had strained to put up a wall between profit and market. Movers and shakers inside such institutions would not "oversee" areas of business unless, heaven forbid, meddling or quarreling gets in the way. The likes of your Yankee Uncle Jim, or your Yankee Cousin Pep would dolle the couple hundred pounds per month you paid to the the MBA —the British equivalent of the American Council on Education, a nipster outfit. - -But leftists also have to clear away the stench of fiscal irresponsibility, which attaches the liberal anti-oligarchy power-drunk Left with the Catholic far left. - -Ilminster Thatcher was a key influence on the conservative Right. A hero of the Iron Orderer, she hired vigilantes known as the Nasty Party into her government as punishment for anything they believed to be a violation of their lower-brow culture. The hawkish europhile soft-left leader of the opposition Socialist Workers party, Jeremy Corbyn, is more laconic. In a short video posted on YouTube in mid-December, his characteristically fatuous style garners almost no traction at all. Americans, for their part, are breaking for the yepp of a centrist establishment favorite and failing. - -Moews relies on data ad infinitum.

The article ultimately uses a novel O(256) solution, but I tried to implement something similar.

This means that when an interesting last block (e.g., the new transaction) arrives, we need to look wich of the twitch primer 00.. reps 34 before evaluating mem me on it. - -What we need to do is to append a seed value in the existing stack slots for these entries, and seed-copy that value into each slot with some value. This way and updaters can take a hopping look for a latest available value. - -Just writing this down sounded pretty easy and I was able to implement the following simple parts of a dupletree for UDP packets: - -BC_S1 = 7784 / DUP_CHECK_H(-WF) processor 1 BC_S2 = 6017 make_mem_quick Truncated (BC_S1, BC_S2),† Removing environmental variables: _memk = BC_S1 Mem bank-memory key Kernel_memk = BC_S2 memk2 Note: Kryo mem relocated to root KPCR table: Mem(nb) = cache, Mem(md) = metadata, Mem(cz) = {post_id} (KSCR low), bytes --> cm(nb); Cache(nb) = cache, Cache(md) = metadata, Cache(cz) = {post_id} * (k&md); cm(nb) = bin; - -And when I am done I will add function to create a new image from the consecutive bins of a pair and see if those upcoming elements add up. - -Possibly this is just wrong.

Chris Smith of New Jersey, which would require congressional approval for the eventual inclusion of the TPP in any final trade deal as part of the process of modernizing trade agreements. - -"I'm for the president," Clinton said. "I voted for him and will remain after I'm in the White House." - -"But Indonesia, our culture is different than theirs," CBS correspondent Scott Pelley replied. "And the way you're negotiating Asia is that the TPP is everything to us. And it is making us less competitive?" - -Answering that, Clinton argued that U.S. culture and pre-modern trading priorities were so different "us" that they shouldn't be compartmentalized. - -"I want to move forward thinking we can get much more integrated into the rest of the world and less dependent on having to pursue those alliances when it's convenient to us," she added. - -But as Politico has previously noted, support for the Smith bill is not necessarily unanimous. Many Democratic Party bosses, including some of its most prominent Democrats, are against it, including considerable pockets of the grassroots, including the 2012 vice presidential nominee Joe Biden, who voted in favor of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Representative Luis Gutierrez of Illinois, a former member of the Congressional Black Caucus, also opposes the President's trade proposals, but is not against the Smith bill. - -The Smith bill before Congress would declare the U.S. to be a party to the deal, saving it from the process that would require 60 votes of the relevant U.S. Senate, but would have other potential pitfalls, including the possibility of influencing the outcome of late D.C. negotiations between the United States and Japan. As the New York Times notes: - -Should those happen, efforts to block the trade deal could bolster opponents, since opposition launched one week after President Obama pledged to make changes about U.S. trade policy, such as a stronger commitment to workers' rights and the rights of women and minorities. - -On the other side, a core Clinton constituency in both New York state and Washington will advocate strongly for passage. Credentials show that a coalition of 12 Democratic State Assembly members in upstate New York and D.C. has put together an 11-member Working Families Party, but if the bill passes in its current form, Clinton and the D.C. clique will presumably stand to gain the most from the increasing agitation that would result if they continued opposing the deal until it was defeated in Congress. - -"Though the TPP is finalized, take action to stop it," wrote the D.C. and New York Working Families party in an email to members urging them to call their congressional representatives.

Women who build themselves up with technology are generally wealthier as a percentage of gender. Don't tell me this doesn't discriminate against females. Another thing is that men's sensitivity to public sexuality has increased 3X more in the last 30 years. Since so many nursing moms and professionals work in the hospital it is easy to see what would bring out the worst in a woman based on the non verbal display she would be all about to others.Just someone who loves her like Cameron and divorced from his not if its said.

I just wanted to bring this to awareness of female stereotypes and some male stereotypes not from misinterpretation but real life fact. How men and women grow up in patriarchy.

Shell reiterated on Monday that the refinery began shutting down a new 7,000-barrel unit late in the fourth quarter after several failures, and it is working with the Massachusetts Gasoline and Electric Co. as the utility's project administrator on an unplanned repair at a 500,000-barrel terminal, some 185 miles east of Boston. - -Suncor, Canada's largest oil sands producer, and ConocoPhillips dropped three points with one of them trading at the top of the consensus analyst price target, while Irving Oil and Pioneer Natural Resources both edged down short of target after increasing. - -For analysts with Macquarie, however, the market's significant focus on the Ukranian coal counts against oil's secular decline and the potential for declining U.S. gas utilizations soon makes the gain in gas production an even more compelling argument for the utility's ailing coal business. - -While seeming plausible on a variety of economic, geopolitical and drivers issues, a reticence to spend large sums of money that go completely uninvested in oil business may also motivate the further expansion of gas basins that extends to shale reserves, said company co-head of commodity research Dean Lewis. - -In the 2Q15 call, for example, Lewis was particularly eager to caution against focusing more on declining U.S. gas production before re-considering the utility's fossil fuel business' segmentation plan. Generally speaking, the U.S. simply doesn't produce nearly enough gas to sustain a fixed and growing gas consumption in the coming decades, so drilling that alternative just causes the stock to tumble. - -With ever greater uncertainties now surrounding the future of shale gas, Ontoin shareholders may also focus less heavily on gas demand gains of Shell's relatively modest increase in oil production. - -Of course, the higher expense it could invite +1.55 mb of gas production = 0.7 mb @ $30/bbl @ Q4 — Dean Lewis (@lynan_dlee) April 14, 2015 - -"Shell is done with gas and is going towards the oil business.

A catchphrase coined by the members of the pair "Korean Wrestling" has been "Urisan-nosama", which means "Two hearts beating in our hearts" (正念者は恩人行になる). Normally, there are five rookie and five experienced wrestlers gathered at the fencing line. An experienced wrestler will push facing the foreign wrestler on the outside, and a rookie will push facing the foreign wrestler on the inside. On rarely occasions, they will even bump into each other! Some commentaries will depict subpartners. They tell jokes about these subpartners (e.g, "水wossoba 【金珠】" = "foreign wrestler green-plum baby"), apart from some amateur wrestling tournaments in the evening. - -So about Mount개 (which really is Mount Gok), the way it took shape was like this - -The Greaser and the Ilk sitting side by side. - -A relevant article (2011) - -The head of the Mount Gok festival is Changdeok Oklahoma Chang himself, master of wrestling Kunmok of Thailand, who officially becomes the president of the Mount Gok hall.

At that time the first 12 minutes is devoted to training, throwing and measuring in gyaru, preparatory practice (2 reps) and walking practice (1 stop). Kyan Bae is among the top-ranked managers of Korean wrestling. There's no comma "ㄱㄷㄳㄽㄡ". That's year. It has been decided that from the 20th of the 34th month (or every year) the faster two wrestlers will pass. 2nd-ranked, Mic and OL Running Mac always stay at the entrance, while Ky Jung hwaeng and Kyong Ahu houl runs towards the other side. If you hear guys saying "Running Mac Super", you should keep drinking. Aguila huhoongaoh is one Pomponaria confirm as the quintessential wrestler. Koo Hyun Rik hand redoubles a lot of times and doesn't drink very much at all. If you hear them ask for a glass of Sprite, you are forbidden to help them. Somehow, Koo Hyun Rik has a genuine Japanese-style chop wrestling (KI). Believe me! So the young wrestlers while preparing symmetrical moves begin to perform a chop. There is an image of teammates running together to a big wrestling ring in the hills at noon (on the distance of about one mile from the center of Mount Gok). During training, the ring has actual ashes burned on the ground. Who will throw next is decided by thumbing (장) or cupping (장皓), you can choose either. The former is easier, while the latter is harder. When the teams seem to be as brawny as lions, the goalkeeper will reload and start to shoot a last shot.

The video coincides with Public Times coverage of the Moody's audit that notes there is no evidence of any financial improprieties in any CPD proceedings, on City programs or in government expenditure accounts. - -In the video, Mark Moody of Moody's begins by noting there is an accepted version of events that blame Chekwonaung for the housing bubble, housing foreclosures and other actions. He says the report highlights the City of Norfolk's "shocking financial mismanagement and ethics problem". - -He says that there are many more accounts to be looked at to see what types of fraud are committed and identify inefficiencies in both the City of Norfolk's foreclosure enforcement and its finance and governance arrangements. - -He says that without new imaginative policies for cities, many other municipal whistleblowers, residents and citizens may fall victim to suspects hiding behind screen names and complete disregard for their whistle blowing. - -Then he says, "This renewed focus on financial mismanagement; rule of law, accountability, responsibility, keeping track of budgets, and other policies by public servants, has been grossly understated and marketed as the main reason as to why governance will improve; all of which are false." - - -Moody's Legal Statement - -Originally, the office of Mayor Tim Curran announced the unanimous release of the decision with the statement, "The auditors noted only minor discrepancies" regarding the actions of the former City Manager Kenneth Oliver. - -The written statement from Alex Schnetbein, general counsel and executive officer for Moody's Corporate Office, says that despite the report's findings that there is no evidence of non-compliance, "the auditor did not interview any third party witnesses.

However, I want to make it perfectly clear that it was not 'small deployments' that affected the City's code compliance scores — it was the kind of repetitive, recurrent, and wide spread red flag issues that can jeopardize an individual city's code compliance score (or worse). What happens when thousands of loans, in the form of improper foreclosures or otherwise defective proceedings have been ever referred to the Court Collects, regardless of the involvement of families who lost their homes? If a local court is sitting empty, then how will that impact the many thousands of companies that routinely represent homeowners who are here for the wrong reasons (an accuracy bias, a breakdown in the document review process, or the misrepresentation by several parties in the transaction)? To what degree does "issue reporting" jeopardize issues of housing preparation and payments of debts among the Municipalities that debt collectors may log onto?

I'm not big on revisiting the books, because I prefer them to sit unread. I'll look at what I've read, and maybe maybe one day I'll re-read that, but it's just not worth my time. -I do read CW, if in sporadic bursts. For example, the GCW one was amazing. Then there is book two. The fans were not convinced by ARC and the writers were asked to reshoot parts of book two, so HFJ and BFJ were why I picked it up. But if I was looking for these things I would seek to explore the books anew. But first that has to be decided. -The reason I bumped up to reading HFJ and BFJ? Though the last book was published in 1999, my first two went behind the scenes, i.e. from June 1999 to September 2001. And while that was my first introduction to AMQP…going back I feel like my reactions got a little better. We needed to debug and deliver really thought provoking and interesting allusions to fans of the series. Knowing what I know now…I would take things a bit less to heart if I read HFJ now, but IMO that book made my idea that I dedicated a whole piece for will resonate even more. -The last book I read for one of the movesgede stuff. They had they good new wayfinding tool in the AC book and one, I might add, quite innovative but eventually never deployed. -It is just so frustrating to grow up with characters and the facts which have twisted and turned into the very things I love most (WE ARE FANTASTIC GIRLS AND YOU NEED TO SPEND ENOUGH MONEY WITH US SO WE CAN LIVE). In the Brave New World there are only good feelings, or Capitalist Happiness. Only Heroes. Only successful adults and traders who trade with each other. And rarely everyone is super happy.

Or that we will pause just to revere one another, even as we murder each other on the same college campus of New York, if that is of any comfort to you. So I find myself doubting who exactly is making the rules in our world? And why do we have to make these rules at all? We will all be collected together somewhere…finished a labor of love, timely execution dashed at the last minute……No. -To call the mystery of the TW below that of Green Lantern is fair, but it would be pointless.

A great beginning to learn how to program comes in the form of Codecademy, a website that's been helping students around the world learn programming since 2013. What's exciting is that a student can start learning programming in less than three months. - -To help you navigate the site and create your first program, I'm going to show you how to generate one. I'll also outline several different programming frameworks that you can use to build up your skills. - -Step 1: Define Your Project - -The first step is defining your code to build up a small game that your little sister will play. In your document or a word document, take a paragraph or two and write your desired program: - -// 1. The title of the program! (This code doesn't really do anything; it just makes the title.) - -Code the title of your program after "title of the program" like this and then type in your program. When you're done, you'll see what appears to be: - -You should now be ready to import into your project any references you made in your document and use the "import the entire document" dropdown to import everything contained in your doc. Now, create one "module" type "HelloWorld" and add this line to your file's "before" block: - -To save some typing, if you don't want to add a "before line," you can just delete the line after the module name (for example: "HelloWorld") - -// 2. An example of a piece of code (This code does something. It's the main reason why you're here.): - -In this example you can see how to "import" your module and type in your program for the first time. You can add more lines now as you get comfortable with it. The only thing you must always remember is to "export your module once." Once your program's completed for the first time, you can then export it in one of two ways: - -The simplest way is to manually export everything like so: - -You're welcome to use either of these solutions provided your code is in "public" folder for each line of your code. This is a feature of the C# language that allows you to place your programs in a "public" folder. - -Or let's say you want to make a simple test: - -In this case I'd export the whole folder: - -So what does "export the entire folder" mean? It means you've now exported up to all of your .csproj folders, including your main project folder! - -Step 3: Define Your "Initialization Code" - -Now it's time to start really defining your first step in programming, which is "Initialization Code." You would do this in your project.json file, and it is a very important step that determines what type of initialization code your program will have on the first time your program is run. It's also used to make sure that your program doesn't run if the program, or any of the classes, are already loaded into memory before your program begins execution. - -// 3.

He said it will be tough, but "it is one of the few games this year with a significant national presence. In many ways, it is the last opportunity for U.S. national team members to make an impression on the world." - -The USA took home silver in rugby sevens in Rio last summer, while Australia finished a close second to the U.S. in the medal count. Melville said that was a result of good performances by the teams, and the U.S. needs to learn lessons from their losses. - -"I think we have to learn how we play, and we're trying to do that better at this early stage of any game. I understand we didn't do that well in the London Olympics, and it's a reason we finished second to Australia," Melville told ESPN in an interview. "But in Rio it's a different game plan that was executed really, really well. - -Melville said the USA could have put the game in the hands of the Chinese, and the Australians, by just sticking to the plan and going forward. - -"It's like the football team. The game is designed to allow the players to make their own impact on the game by going and making the tackle, or scoring a try, or throwing in some key passes, and then the rest of our time, the rest of the game's going to come at us. They've seen that from the last game against the Chinese. So we really have to learn what we did right and do the same this time. You can't make a huge impact right from the start." - -"You have to understand that you can't play this game like we did in London. We didn't start play. This is not the plan for this game. We've been studying them since September, watching, preparing, going through the process of how you play a rugby sevens game with a national team that's made up of sevens players." - -USAR has had other meetings with various players about possibly competing with the Chinese at Rio, but Melville said so far all have said they wanted to play for their countries. - -"Some of these guys have made it clear they want to play for their countries and, if given an opportunity, they'll play for their countries," Melville said. "One thing the Chinese have got is experience from the last Olympic Games. They know how to do it. - -"They've put it behind them. They understand how the game works." - -Melville added that the idea of playing both the U.S. and Australia, as well as the Chinese, is still being determined. The only other options are to play an American team or two Americans. - -"They had some players in the pool that spoke Chinese or English, and we thought it would be fun to have a Chinese team, to have some Australian players and see if they could communicate," Melville said. - -There is no specific time frame for selection of a team, Melville said. But the top finishers will play on Aug. 28, while the winners of a qualifying tournament on Aug. 29 and 30 will advance. - -Melville said he will name a U.S. coach "as soon as I can."

Since the US has more weapons than any other nation, we have to decide if such weapons are justified for our security and whether they actually keep us safe. The United States currently possesses an estimated arsenal of approximately 6,700 nuclear weapons–more than the combined forces of the next 20 nations combined, and many times the total used by the eight nations with nuclear weapons at the start of the Cold War. - -For more than 50 years, the US has been under the threat of nuclear attacks. If a nuclear attack occurred today, it's estimated that half of the population living in this country would be killed or injured. So how does the US stand up to this kind of threat? Let's take a look at three major arguments: - -First, nuclear weapons are so reliable that the United States can respond in under minutes to any attack with nukes. The current nuclear arsenal is comprised mostly of fission-weapons (such as the US weapons that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki). While this might be a tempting narrative, it falls apart when you examine the reality. - -For example, the Soviet Union had an inventory of roughly 15 to 20 thermonuclear weapons. They also had the Soviet ICBM complex that had the capacity to deliver the equivalent of 30,000 Hiroshima-sized atomic warheads. Furthermore, the Soviets had a military capability well beyond the capabilities of America's nuclear bombers, whose range is about 9,000 miles. This led to the US having to wait nearly a week to launch nuclear weapons after the Soviet Union first attacked with its first strike. The Soviet "solution" would have been to launch at least 50 nuclear weapons in the first few minutes, which would have wiped out a great deal of humanity. - -The Soviets had a military capability well beyond the capabilities of America's nuclear bombers - -Even if the US did have a perfect response, what's the probability of stopping a nuclear missile with nukes? In reality, our ability to stop a nuclear missile with nukes is low. If a Russian ICBM were to have a successful first strike, they would likely hit their target even if we only had four ICBMs. - -Moreover, the current US ICBM force is largely obsolete, with only two aging ICBMs (the Minuteman IIIB and Minuteman IIIH), as well as the B61 nuclear bomb and strategic ABM (anti-ballistic missile) system. - -These weapons are also expensive, and if we choose not to continue to replace them, they will soon be retired. The B61 bomb costs $8 million each, while the strategic ABM system costs a reported $10 billion. A new, "operationally deployable" Minuteman III is estimated to cost $3.5 billion each. Given these numbers, it's clear that the current ICBM force is not a feasible deterrent for America, and that the United States must have both a replacement and upgrading program for its deployed force to remain viable. Thus, the argument is clearly not that nuclear weapons are perfect. - -To this day, the US is still not able to stop a major nuclear warhead from detonating near its surface, either with an ICBM, conventional ICBM or ballistic missile (which will come at some point in the future). In order to defend against a "precision strike" with an ICBM, the US must either be able to destroy the incoming warhead or at least destroy it before it comes to the ground (or launch a counterattack). - -However, the United States does have two kinds of ICBMs that can knock out an incoming warhead at a fairly safe distance. One is the B61, which is a very long-range nuclear weapon that will destroy the incoming warhead with a few seconds of time. (The US has two such weapons in its arsenal.) However, the US only has a single ICBM on hand for use in a "precision strike." A two-warhead ICBM, such as the B61, also gives the US the ability to destroy incoming nuclear warheads at a much longer distance. But this is not an option because -======================================== SAMPLE 6 ======================================== -Kawasaki Z1000 - -I recently acquired this bike from its original owner.

As a result there is a massive drop-off in home-price growth and many property agents fear that we are on the verge of a price bubble like the one in America in the early 2000s. A few months ago house prices and rents seemed almost identical, even at current low interest rates and they weren't far off for much longer. But rents are now starting to go up again… and this is only going to speed up the inevitable crash, and this time we know with certainty that the crash will be as rapid as the recovery from the financial crisis. The fact that there is actually a lot less overhang in places like London and the South East than there was five years ago is proof that we've had a massive decline in housing demand. This means that many of the thousands of people who are being forced to give up on ever buying a home will instead simply be renting until prices drop even further. I suspect the big banks will also start to get worried at the end of this. Some property experts see a future for property investment which is similar to that which existed prior to the crash in 2007-08. This means that if home prices don't come down fast enough then you can have a similar crash in the property stocks of most banks. - -The other issue (which is more important than the housing sector) is that people are starting to look at their retirement savings and realise that they will have less to live on – and even if you've accumulated some savings over the course of your working life (and remember that savings are made over time) this will inevitably reduce the real value of that savings over time. So much of that wealth that you've amassed over many years will now be in the form of assets other than your mortgage. The other issue (and it's probably the most important issue of all) is that there's a huge overhang of unfunded liabilities and pension debts which means that we need to put up much larger public debts if the economy is going have any hope of recovering any time soon. So the government needs to start working very fast to start funding its debts again which will require a massive increase in the debt ceiling. - -A quick update on the eurozone: I haven't been seeing a lot of news around this lately as everybody seems so focused on the UK economy but I have a feeling that the crisis is actually now on another scale… - -The financial industry and big banks have been getting nervous and a lot of European countries (particularly the southern European countries, like Spain and Italy) have just become too expensive to do business in. - -Many of the banks in these countries are already under-capitalised and this really won't get better in the near future. There's no guarantee that they will just be able to survive as any other bank would over the coming years. - -What will make things even more difficult is the fact that there are a lot of other businesses that they compete against for business… and many of these businesses are even more dependent on government support – especially the utilities. There's a very real potential that they could go bankrupt within the next 12 months. In other words, we haven't learned our lessons after the financial crisis (aside from being too generous to bankers). And I'm pretty sure that is what is going to happen in these parts of Europe now. - -If we look at the real estate sector, the UK has some incredibly rich land but that's about it.

I want to lay that argument down. - -GamerGate was the product of a number of factors. The first was that the industry itself, like most technology industries, has a pretty conservative bias, especially in regards to female representation. That has been the case since the earliest days when video game designers and publishers were largely just trying to cash in on an increasing mainstream interest in gaming (i.e. the "Nintendogs" craze before the PC explosion of the '90s). That was amplified during the PC revolution when gamers, particularly male gamers, had more freedom to choose what games they played, and there were more platforms to play them on. - -The mainstreaming of consoles like the PlayStation and the Xbox had also allowed game designers to make much more personal, focused games featuring their own characters rather than generic male archetypes, and that in-turn allowed a new audience to discover those kinds of games — both boys and girls. - -Then, with the advent of social media when most gamers, men and women, became more open about their interests (again, including the "Nintendogs" craze) and their desires to game, the audience for those kinds of titles widened to include everyone. With that happened, the industry as a whole had to be more realistic in its designs on attracting players who weren't just geeks looking for a video game to play. - -GamerGate was thus formed as a response to these trends — first by those gamers who wanted better representation of women and the underrepresented gender in games, -======================================== SAMPLE 8 ======================================== -Rutgers vs. Texas - -When: 6:35 p.m. Saturday - -Where: TCF Bank Stadium, Houston - -Radio: SiriusXM Rush (Sirius channel 92; XM channel 12) - -TV: ESPN2 (Bob Wischusen; Mike Ditka) - -Radio broadcast links: ESPN Radio (SiriusXM Rush (Sirius channel 92; XM channel 12), WGR 550 AM) - -Live blog links: ESPN / The Rutgers Blog - -Live blog highlights: None here - -For Rutgers: New head coach Chris Ash takes over the program after one season in which he had a 10-17 record, a 5-7 mark in Big Ten play and an NCAA loss after a loss to Wisconsin, and finished with a 12-32 record. While many have pointed out that Rutgers has won just seven games in each of the last three seasons, new coach Ash has his work cut out for him to prove that he can replace the talent that departed (and departed for other programs). The Scarlet Knights still have five seniors on their roster, including All-American receiver Leonte Carroo, a Heisman finalist last year. The offensive line needs to be rebuilt, and while the defense is returning eight starters, it will need to pick up all the pieces from last season. - -For Texas: Strong, coming off his third 10-win season, inherits a program that has struggled for years and is looking at the rebuilding process again. While Texas certainly returns at least two of its starting five from last season, replacing that depth will be key. The passing game still needs to be rebuilt, and the offense will need to have a lot of success with a new quarterback, a position group that only had four starters return, including a likely starter in Shane Buechele. The defense will lose about half of its front, but the front seven is one of the best in the country. This is Texas' one chance to prove that they are capable of reaching the postseason each season. - -Prediction - - -For Rutgers: Another Big Ten victory and Rutgers will be in a spot to play for the conference title. - -for Texas: Texas just has to slow down Rutgers' offense in this one and Rutgers' defense doesn't have the personnel to hold up against Texas' prolific offense. - -Game: Rutgers 34, Texas 10 - -Time: 6:35 p.m. Saturday - -Record: Rutgers 24-9, 6-6 Big Ten - -Position: Rutgers at QB - -Schedules: - -Rutgers 11/23 - -Texas 10/2 - -* — No change with the scheduled game - -What can we learn about Rutgers from this game? - -1) Rutgers really will need to take it on the road against a team from the Big 12 after their two wins came against the spread in Iowa and Minnesota. - -2) Rutgers' offense will need to step up at some point. The defense must continue to improve because you can make a case that Texas doesn't have a defense with the ability to stop Rutgers on Saturday. - -3) Texas will not be able to rely on freshman Daje Johnson to get the ball to playmakers and get the ball moving on a consistent basis. - -4) Texas will need sophomore QB Shane Buechele to help take the pressure off the defense to find a way to get into the end zone. - -5) The key for Notre Dame to beat Notre Dame will be the play of QB Everett Golson. Golson had a rough first game against the Irish in 2014 and took the blame for throwing three interceptions. In his second game, Golson has been more patient and is making better decisions, which has led to his higher completion percentage and fewer interceptions. With Golson under center, Notre Dame has been getting into the end zone and scoring points. Even if Golson can't play, I think the offense can still be effective. - -Prediction: Rutgers 14, Texas 10 - -Next game - -Saturday, October 26 at BYU - -Time: 12:30 p.m. ET - -Records: BYU 8-2, Texas 7-4<|endoftext|>You must enter the characters with black color that stand out from the other characters - -Message: * A friend wanted you to see this item from WRAL.com: http://wr.al/vZjW - -— North Carolina lawmakers are pushing to expand Medicaid in the state – a potentially costly proposition that would cover a greater percentage of the state's uninsured population than it currently does. - - -The legislature passed a Medicaid expansion bill late last month, but Gov.

The fact that the US has been willing support both Iran as well as Israel has caused some rumblings with the Iranians. - -The United States has the power to pressure Iran economically, and could even sanction them financially. The United States could also do some other things, like try some economic or military coercion over Iran. While we would prefer a peaceful outcome, we would not stand idly by and let any potential nuclear weapons going to a country that could do such a thing. - -If Iran were to become a nuclear power, it would be a major problem. But it is more unlikely than it has ever been to happen at this point. We could have an argument about how many nuclear weapons Iran could potentially have (it has around a thousand for a number of reasons.) But given the many other problems in the region right now, we think it is more likely that this would become a more complex problem than it ever was. - -This could all come down to trust, trust that the President is in control, and trust that the international community and the United States will all act together to solve this problem.<|endoftext|>This month marks 25 years since Dr. Seuss published "One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish," the book that kick-started an endless stream of kids' picture books, and one of the most popular children's literature classics ever published.

If you're going it alone and you don't have the financial backing to hire one of the big name companies (if you can even afford them), then you may need to have that camera on your body for the time being. - -The best way to do this is probably to rent a DSLR on some of the rental sites (if you can pay them). They'll be able to help to find the best quality and features the camera will need for the tasks that you have in mind with your camera.

This is a camera that's made for serious photographers, but has enough features and specs to help make your daily shooting and editing process on a DSLR just as easy as it is if you're using your smartphone and a decent tripod. - -The camera is certainly more capable of working at high ISO speeds and has better quality than most consumer level DSLRs. There are some quality improvements from when Foveon came out to how that sensor functions, and that certainly adds to the look and feel of the camera. - -There are some pretty cool stuff coming out in the coming camera updates. Here are some of them (and some new camera samples on youtube). - -The F2 Pro comes with a very nice set of extra features. The new firmware will offer improved manual options, a zoom mode, and even "full frame" stabilization. This is something that's been mentioned before on this site, but should be especially important for DSLR shooters, who need help getting a DSLR "down to size" to make the most of their camera. - -The camera is a great choice for folks who want to get started with film or just want to learn.

That was a huge change for me: to really feel happy and to have my relationships with people." - -On why he left CBS in 1998: "I was getting very sick and tired of the politics and the whole thing that was going down in the CBS building, and the whole kind of power structure around the network. I made a point to just leave, and at the end of the season there was this feeling that it was time to go. I was sitting in my office, looking around, and I remember walking into the door and thinking 'You know what else is going to go down tonight? A meteor will hit the earth, and that's going to be the day. So go! It's time to go.' And of course, they canceled The X-Files, and that was that." - -On the value of keeping secrets: "I don't worry about my legacy when I die, I worry about my legacy and what my kids will remember. So I think that's the way it should be all the time." - -On the reason he chose to stay away from Hollywood in his 90s: "[Comics] and writers and actors used to be an endangered species. I thought it was time to find out that people loved this stuff. And if we're going to say we were there, let's just name who we were. That changed things for a while, and then, well, the thing that happened was The Simpsons came out. There are a lot more comics, and now there's a TV show called The Walking Dead, which is a good show." - -This is a must-read interview that I didn't read when it came out but am glad we had it later. Not to say Letterman wouldn't talk about anything: In a 2010 interview, he's asked if he's changed and doesn't hold back: "What I think about is I feel like my life is just about right now, and when I die I will be the same person that I am right now, and then nothing else will affect it in the same way." - -This is the sort of thing that Letterman would say: "I will miss the show, but nothing can replace the magic."<|endoftext|>Brisbane Roar announced on Tuesday the signing of talented young Australian-born Socceroos utility Mathew Leckie from Central Coast Mariners until the end of the Hyundai A-League 2016/17 season. - -The 20-year-old will join Roar on a two-year contract with a view to becoming an Hyundai A-League member when the Roar's Westfield FFA Cup campaign wraps up on Sunday, December 29. - - -"The signing of Mathew brings a wealth of experience to the Roar squad," said Roar Head Coach John Aloisi. - - -"Mathew is one of Australia's brightest young prospects and we're delighted we've been able to secure his services. - - -"Having scored three goals in his first FFA Cup match against Newcastle Jets last week, it's fitting we secured his signature from the Mariners in time for the Christmas -======================================== SAMPLE 12 ======================================== -It is a strange thing, but the fact remains that in 2016 we are entering the last year of the Obama presidency. The next president will have at least three and probably four years of the Obama presidency, as he will be out of office by that point. How is this possible? It's not even clear that we will want to get a lot of things right after all that we have learned. - -I have said that the Obama presidency is not over yet. If Obama were to step down before his successor takes the oath—for whatever reason—the legacy of President Barack Obama will not be destroyed. Obama still has the opportunity to play a very important role in our future by being one of the last remaining statesmen. - -I wish Obama well. I wish him the best of luck. But I also wish the president did not believe so strongly after his election in 2008 that he could be some kind of savior and do all things on his own. President Obama's legacy should be one of pragmatism, and the realization that we must work with others to achieve our goals. That's exactly why the Obama presidency is over. It may not seem like it. But to the extent that any part of his legacy survives, it would be because he worked to make his legacy work for everyone. - -In this election, Barack Obama's legacy came as a disappointment to Donald Trump. A lot of people were frustrated at the Obama administration for its overly complex immigration policy, its unwillingness to speak of terrorism in a way that the public could understand, and its general incompetence. - -But if we want to really understand why so many Americans cast their votes against the very idea of Hillary Clinton, the most important lesson to take away is that Donald Trump is a very weak messenger of the presidency. - -When Trump went after Bill Clinton's history of "sexual assault," Clinton's response was to attack Trump. When Trump made false claims about Clinton's past sexual history—even though this is a common tactic used by Republicans looking to impeach Clinton—Clinton did not attack Trump until he finally issued his own accusation. - -I don't blame the Clinton campaign for reacting like this. But when Clinton accused Trump of being a "sexual predator," the Clinton campaign had no reason to defend its own candidate. If Trump is a sexual predator, there is no valid reason for Clinton to keep saying and doing the same thing. All he has done about that is reinforce Trump's message that women who have gotten raped and beaten deserved it. - -We did not need Donald Trump to win the presidency. We did not need Hillary Clinton to win the presidency. These are two of the weakest messenger candidates in American history. If we cannot have confidence in them as presidents, then we have no confidence in our democracy. The fact that Donald Trump cannot seem to imagine what it would be like to actually be president should be a cause of concern for everybody. - -And even if Trump wins, will he be able to do anything? One of the big surprises to Americans of this election was the ease that some Trump supporters were using the power of social media to communicate with one another. As Trump supporters were bombarding his opponent's Facebook pages and Twitter accounts with messages, Clinton's campaign took these posts and used the same ones to respond. But even without those tools at their disposal, Clinton's team was more effective at coordinating its communications and trying to organize. - -Facebook, which has an algorithm that determines what is and is not news, can no doubt be used for good. But Clinton will have no monopoly on the future of politics on Facebook. And without some kind of centralized mechanism to organize and to communicate—whether Facebook, or Twitter or Reddit—the idea of a Trump presidency is just an absurdly unrealistic threat. The reason Trump and Clinton have become the most disliked and distrusted presidential candidates in American history is not because Americans don't trust them even when they're lying about things like policy (see here and here for examples of this). It's because their platforms are so weak that people cannot resist their messages without losing control over themselves. - -It's time for Donald Trump to learn to run a campaign, not a presidency. And that, perhaps, is the most depressing thing about this election: he doesn't ever seem to want to learn.<|endoftext|>The government's response to a public health crisis is supposed to be to do something.

This week's episode, "The Curse of the Darkman," featured a "zombie," made out of clay, who was used to scare and scare the audience. While the audience enjoyed this performance, a lot of viewers found the episode itself unsettling, although for the right reasons: the creepy character was actually an act of human performance. - -Although the show will air when the zombie plague is over, the cast wasn't the only scary thing the show did in its second episode, which will air on Thursday, September 30, and we decided for our viewing pleasure to take a look at the cast and make them feel the stress of the apocalypse. - -I'm not going to lie: one of my favorite segments was the "fear" part of the show. What I mean is, they're all playing people. Everyone is scared, but we are all scared with what we know of human nature. Everyone has a moment where they have a panic attack in front of their friends. It's just the way we are…that's it at least. - -That's the point we are trying to be at on our show. We are not attempting to play up any of the fear of the actual zombies we are talking about. We're hoping to actually make people question their own reaction and make them question if they're the kind of people who would willingly come into contact with a creepy clay zombie. - -So what do you think of our series?

But most of the existing solar panels are bulky and inefficient, due to solar cells' ability to absorb only a portion of the Sun's energy, which makes them unable to generate enough electricity to power anything besides tiny, portable electronics. - -To address these limitations, researchers at MIT and the Argonne National Laboratory looked to a way to turn sunlight directly into electricity in a way that's both more compact and environmentally friendly—and potentially more efficient. - -The new findings, published this week by the journal Energy & Environmental Science, are based on using thin, transparent photovoltaics, as opposed to conventional silicon solar cells, to convert the sunlight into electricity that can be stored in a battery. The researchers' prototype batteries can produce up to 1.6 kilowatt-hours of electricity, which is sufficient to power a small LED light bulb over the course of a year—and an electric car. In future designs, the team would like to be able to increase the capacity of the battery to store larger amounts of energy.<|endoftext|>A number of new details are emerging in regards to the FBI's investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server, following FBI Director James B.

This finding may help explain the rise in cardiovascular disease rates across the developed world that has been seen in the last century and a half. - -The study was conducted by researchers headed by Dr Helen Anderson from the School of Nutrition Science & Policy, Imperial College London and Dr Joanna Rowsell from the Department of Public Health at Edinburgh University. The research published this week in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, is the first to investigate the association between diet and cholesterol levels in women aged 70 and over. - -The researchers found that women who consumed a high level of whole-fat dairy products and low levels of cholesterol in their diet had higher levels of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) than women who consumed a low ratio of meat and milk products to dairy. The study found that women who consumed high levels of fat in their diets also had lower levels of cholesterol than women who consumed low levels of fat. - -"The results suggest the need for a re-evaluation of cholesterol-lowering dietary strategies for older women," said lead author Dr Helen Anderson. "While a range of diet changes and medications such as statins have proven to be successful, the results of this study suggest that dietary strategies aimed at increasing the consumption of vegetables, fruit and low-fat dairy products may be more effective for preventing cardiovascular disease." - -Researchers suggest that the findings help explain the fact that incidence of cardiovascular disease has increased in men and women over the past 20 years while it has declined in people aged 70 and over in western countries such as the UK. - -Dr Anderson added : "While previous studies have indicated that a dietary pattern high in fat and cholesterol consumption and low in vegetables, fruits and low-fat dairy products is at best ineffective and may even be bad for the heart, this study indicates that a dietary pattern high in fat and low in vegetables, fruits and low-fat dairy products should receive the attention that it deserves. This could translate to an enormous range of cardiovascular risk prevention strategies to be used to increase heart health in older people." - -To investigate the link between a diet high in fat and low in vegetables, fruits and low-fat dairy products and the risk of coronary heart disease, the researchers followed over a 20-year period 15,876 women aged 70 and over aged between 45-80 years who were enrolled in the Women's Health Study. There were 739 of these women diagnosed with a coronary event and 746 for whom a cause of death could be ascertained and had completed all the necessary questionnaires. During the 20-year follow-up period, the women completed an average of 8.7 questionnaires. - -Researchers used data from a previous study of a group of women aged 70-71 years in which the researchers analysed data from five questionnaires. This study, which was performed by researchers from the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute in Bethesda, Maryland and a group at the University of Colorado for Medical Sciences led to the development of an improved questionnaire and questionnaire design and data collection method that allowed the researchers to analyse data from over 1 million women aged 70-82 and women aged over 85. - -The diet component the researchers looked at in this study measured by the questionnaire included intake of whole-fat dairy, vegetables, fruits and low-fat dairy products. The questionnaire also included questions on smoking status. - -The researchers found that in the women with coronary heart disease, the consumption of fat and vegetables was directly linked to higher total cholesterol; LDL cholesterol. In contrast, in the women with an LDL cholesterol of less than four, the fat and saturated fat in the diet were inversely related to LDL cholesterol concentrations; but in the women with LDL cholesterol of four or more, diet had no effect. - -The average dietary cholesterol intake in this group was 2.3mg per day. In a previous study of 14,800 men with coronary heart disease, researchers found that a diet high in fat and cholesterol consumed by this group was linked to higher levels of LDL cholesterol. In this study, the researchers found that the higher consumption of whole-fat dairy in this group was linked to lower LDL cholesterol, whereas the higher consumption of vegetables, fruits and low-fat milk in this group was linked to higher levels of LDL cholesterol. However, there was no specific link to the intake of cholesterol in general. - -The data show that an increase in whole-fat dairy consumption is associated with lower LDL levels. A further reason for this is that a reduction in saturated fat intake has been shown to have an anti-inflammatory effect; hence increased whole-fat dairy intake helps to protect cardiovascular health by reducing LDL cholesterol levels. For this reason, this type of diet may be particularly beneficial among the older population. - -A further point of interest from the study of the role of saturated fat in heart disease was the finding that those whose -======================================== SAMPLE 16 ======================================== -A new poll suggests Donald Trump has a clear lead over his Republican rivals for the Republican presidential nomination. - -And while the billionaire has struggled this election cycle to gain traction among the general electorate, the Fox News poll provides a snapshot into the support his campaign enjoys in a handful of key battleground states — a key source of power if he hopes to ultimately win the nomination. - -"Trump's campaign is winning the attention of swing voters and helping to expand his support," pollster Daron Shaw said in a statement. "The big story here is that he's doing this in a way that is winning over voters from both parties." - -While the poll suggests Trump may have some way to go to catch up with the current Republican front-runner, he has emerged a clear front-runner among many GOP voters, and is well ahead of his likely rival — John Kasich — who finished a distant fifth, with 17 percent. - -The poll comes amid an intense and prolonged fight for second place in the delegate count leading up to next week's crucial Republican primary. Trump is well ahead of the rest of the crowded Republican race, including Kasich, who has recently struggled as he's attempted to draw the support of more establishment Republicans in his home state of Ohio. - -Trump has surged in recent weeks, taking advantage of a series of positive policy announcements, and also has improved his favorability ratings, making his support among Republican primary voters significantly harder to erase. - -The Fox News poll was conducted June 20-24, surveying 3,017 registered Republican voters nationwide and 1,032 likely primary voters.

The American Academy of Pediatrics is the nation's most prominent pediatrician's professional organization, with over 16,000 certified pediatricians, and serves as a resource for physicians in America's public schools. We are deeply concerned about the Israeli-Palestinian violence that is being fueled by BDS. These are not simple "two-sided" conflicts; the conflict is about who can do what to the other. Many in Palestinian communities are losing hope that peace will come to their communities; they no longer believe the Israeli government will ever negotiate a just solution. - -What is BDS? - -BDS stands for Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions against Israel. BDS is based on the nonviolence principle of the Palestinian civil and political struggle for freedom and equality. These aims are not contradictory; they are complementary. It is also known as the "two states for two peoples" solution, because Palestinians, with international support and with the full support of the global boycott, divestment and sanction movement, should have the right to live together in a free and democratic state with full equality. The goal of the BDS movement is to achieve just outcomes for Palestinians through nonviolent means – without recourse to armed struggle. - -BDS is not anti-Semitic. To call BDS anti-Semitic is an insult to both the Jews and the Jewish people. - -What is the impact of BDS on the health of Palestinians? - -The movement has brought about some tangible benefits for the Palestinian community. It has made international news and generated an important dialogue among international, national and grassroots supporters and opponents of Israeli policies. - -In one area, Israeli settlements in Palestinian territory on land the Palestinians consider their own threatens them with a loss of control over resources and essential services such as electricity, water and education. But there have also been concrete victories, including, for example: - -The recent election of the first Palestinian President ever. - -A significant drop in violence and arrests in East Jerusalem. - -Protests against high prices in the West Bank and the removal of subsidies on electricity and water, and on water for Gaza, making access to clean drinking-water and sanitation more affordable to families. - -An Israeli law prohibiting businesses providing goods or services in support of non-official Israeli groups affiliated with the Palestinian Authority. - -A new Palestinian civil society initiative to advance human development, including women's empowerment, freedom of movement and human rights. - -The ability of Palestinian children to enter high schools free of discrimination based on their religion, nationality or ethnicity. - -The movement has also brought the Israeli government's policies into more question, as they've demonstrated what appears to be an increasingly anti-democratic approach to the Palestinians. And as evidenced by recent developments in the Israeli government's handling of the prisoners, an increasing number of Palestinians and Jewish Israelis are willing to call for boycotts, divestments, and sanctions against the state of Israel. - -What is the impact of the economic, political, social and educational boycotts? - -These nonviolent campaigns have already shifted the conversation. At the very least, they demonstrate a willingness to take a different stance that is more supportive of Palestinian rights. As the Israeli government has shown that its policies are unacceptable to a growing number in the Palestinian community, and the international community continues to move in this direction, it's not unreasonable that more people around the world would be willing to call for the same. - -The question of economic boycotts and economic sanctions (BDS) is one of the most difficult. However, the most recent U.S. Senate resolution that recognizes BDS as a foreign policy tool should provide a useful benchmark for understanding what is possible. To avoid being labeled as anti-Semitic, it is important to make clear that all means of non-violent resistance are welcome and should be supported. - -One way to understand the difference between BDS and economic pressure is to consider a hypothetical: Suppose Israel agreed to immediately release all the -======================================== SAMPLE 18 ======================================== -If there's one thing we can say about the first season of ABC's new reality series, The Bachelor, it's this: it will be entertaining. - -In the first episode alone, several contestants got a little too much into each other's personal lives and had to kiss goodbye once the cameras came on. - -But while it was all a little bit…weird, this season is just plain great. - -The first few episodes have shown that contestants are very comfortable in their own skin, getting to know each other on a very human level without any of this voyeurism or weirdness. - -Not only have the first few episodes shown that men don't always need more women for a hot date, but that not all women want to be the center of attention. - -The second season will give us more insight into each season of the show, and we look forward to the revelations and the relationships that will come from the first 11 episodes. - -The Bachelor airs Fridays at 8pm EST on ABC.<|endoftext|>Saskatoon Police Chief Clive Weighill says his officers are following up on hundreds of tips on a rash of robberies in the city but haven't yet made a significant arrest. - -On Wednesday there were a total of eight reported robberies in Saskatoon alone, and Weighill said the crime wave is being closely monitored by his department. - -Weighill says there's no doubt the crime wave is growing, but has yet to identify any suspects in four cases.<|endoftext|>A lot of talk, but very little substance. - -It was the second week of the NFL Scouting Combine -- that means it's the time at which some top prospects from all corners of the country go through workouts to get in the best physical condition they can as they prepare for the NFL Draft. But, unfortunately, there was very little substance to talk about in the field -- some players did great, while others struggled to make plays. And even though the Combine is often used as a way for some prospects to get a feel for how their stock is going, there's a reason a lot of players don't end up being drafted when they come out of the Combine. - -With the exception of a few notable workouts, let's look at four notable events from this week, from the top players in an important position group to some of the draft prospects who stood out the most on the field: - -Offensive tackle - -Travis Frederick, Texas A&M: If there's one position group where the Combine is really hard to predict, it's offensive line. So when there is an event like the combine for it, you have to use it as a way to get a feel for where prospects will be picked, but you have to be careful not to overreact to it. In that sense, Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones is very smart to have selected left tackle Tyron Smith with the No. 2 overall pick in the draft, and to sign Frederick and Andrew Jackson in free agency. Frederick was the best player on the most well-publicized event this week, the bench press (or the "losing press" as it's so lovingly called), which was conducted in front of the entire public -- in other words, it didn't matter that the rest of the Combine was closed (although I would have liked to have seen a separate event held for that). Frederick finished with 7 reps of 225 pounds on his bench, and didn't look out of place when he was asked to do something similar in front of some media. There was a lot of chatter that he could go higher in the draft if, for example, he showed that he's just over the bench-press hurdle, but he didn't do anything to alter that perception. - -The draft for offensive linemen has a lot of holes, not the least of which is the current depth chart between Joe Thomas and Lane Johnson at left tackle. It took Thomas two workouts -- one in Indianapolis one in Mobile, Alabama -- to impress, but once Smith was off the board, there really wasn't anything to make him seem like a sure thing. Thomas was one of the last of the big guys to perform, and his performance may have been the most impressive -- for whatever that's worth. He wasn't all that impressive in his short workout on Thursday, but he was all right, though he wasn't much taller that Johnson. Thomas should stick with the Browns at one spot, but he may not get there for some time. - -Joey Bosa's performance on the bench press, while not a great one given his size, was still fairly impressive in his short workout, which came on Thursday. He finished with 6 reps and 225 pounds on his bench, and he did a great job of showing off his athleticism on that one -- it was really difficult trying to get him back in to his feet and to keep him upright. It was a good start for what should easily be considered the top offensive line prospect in the draft, but it's clear there's a -======================================== SAMPLE 19 ======================================== -The state Senate is trying to block implementation of a new state law that would ban discrimination against gays, lesbians, bisexual and transgender people, arguing it infringes on the separation of church and state. - -But Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg, R-Chandler, says it's a matter of protecting religious freedom in a land of secularism. - -"There's no place for religion in government, and when we start putting religion in government, then we're going to be a different place," said Steinberg, noting the bill is a response to a recent Supreme Court decision striking down part of the state's 2003 gay rights ordinance that had allowed cities and townships to outlaw discrimination based on sexual orientation. - -Senate Bill 1182 would make it illegal to discriminate in business, employment, housing and public accommodations against gay, lesbian or transgender people, as well lesbians and transgender people. - -Steinberg's bill now goes to the House, but the Senate is expected to vote on the measure tonight. - -Rep. Steve Hickey, R-Phoenix, said he has not fully considered the bill, but he suspects Steinberg is trying to prevent implementation of the law. - -"I'm a firm believer that every individual should be protected, but not at the expense of the separation of church and state, in my opinion," Hickey said, adding his "religious freedom and privacy rights will have been infringed upon" under the bill. - -Steinberg said he doesn't plan to stop the bill when it comes to the House floor unless there are problems there. - -"I'm not going to stop an effort to protect our religious liberties, whether we're in the Senate or the House," Steinberg said. - -Steinberg also said the bill will allow the state Supreme Court to interpret it in a way that does not conflict with the high court's 2003 decision striking down parts of the city-specific ordinance. - -Hickey also said he wants the bill amended because he doesn't want the state Supreme Court to be involved in the interpretation part. - -Steinberg said that if the court decides to clarify the law's constitutionality, then it would be up to the House to decide whether to take up the issue again. - -The bill "protects everybody; gay, straight, transgender or straight," Steinberg said.

I was on vacation, and on my Facebook feed I saw someone posting about the fact a woman who had been working in a bakery in San Diego had been caught shoplifting. I thought it couldn't get anymore fucked up, but in the same way I was in the airport when I saw a guy flying to Hawaii, I wanted to feel like my life was just one giant fucking lie. And so here I am. I'm writing a story that I feel like I have to let you do the reading. I'm writing this because I feel like it's my duty to inform the world on this horrific thing that happened to me, and in the hope that it might make the situation a little less fucking horrible for other people. The following is completely fictional, and any resemblance to characters or events in real life is coincidental. This happened to Sarah, myself and about four hundred other people. The story starts at 9:30am, and we're all still in our own cabins at 7:00am. It's still fucking hot, but no way does a fucking bikini model deserve to be in the middle of the ocean, even for a couple days. Sarah is here and she's wearing a bikini. It's a light orange coloured one, and the top of it just says 'CATEGORE.' The top barely covers her neck, and only covers enough. It looks like a good three-quarter length top, that barely covers any of her body at all. All the holes in her bottom are completely exposed. We're sitting in a cabin about twenty kilometres off the coast of Costa Rica. There's no wind, just the steady pounding of our own hearts in our ears, and a little bit of salt water dripping on our faces. We were all sitting outside eating sandwiches. It's pretty quiet, only the birds chirping a little bit in the trees. We're all dressed up in our swimsuits, except Sarah is in some skimpy little string bikini. She sits on the chair beside me and stretches out, her hips pressing against mine. She closes her eyes and reaches up with her forefingers and fingers to move the bikini around her boobs a bit. It makes her nipples stick out more, but the bikini top isn't so bad. I take off my bikini top. I can't really feel my tits, they're still pretty firm but the bottom of my top is really tight, making it look as though my chest might burst through. I have a feeling that my nipples are a bit big as well. I pull the bikini up between my legs -======================================== SAMPLE 20 ======================================== -"This is the one part of my business that is guaranteed to get people's attention and give them reasons to come inside." -Tucker Max - -For over thirty years, Tucker Max has been one of the country's most highly known, widely quoted, and most controversial speakers, who has never backed down from any controversial claim, no matter how many times people have called him a troll or an asshole, an insensitive asshole or a man who's entire "identity" is founded on a gross over-generalization. - -His most recent book, I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell, caused a stir when it was released on October 25, 2012. It's a book that attempts to prove that women are "sluts" and that any attempts to engage in consensual activity are merely for a man's sexual gratification. - - -Now it appears that Max has turned his attention to an even more contentious subject with his recent appearance at the University of Kansas last Thursday. - -According to a report in The Daily Caller, on the same evening that Tucker Max was "discussing the 'sluttification' of women," a "large group" of men from the campus's Men's Rights Activists (or "MRA" for short) group "hacked into the Facebook page" of professor Laurie Penny and "tweeted that they were 'bitter' over what they perceived as a lack of feminism on campus." - - -"They then posted various comments disparaging those women who were seen as feminists, among them that the 'feminist movement is a farce, a scam, a money making scheme,' and that 'women's equality starts with the right to choose who one f*cking wants to have sex with...you are sluts if you don't." - -It did not take long for students of the University of Kansas to come to conclusions about the men. - -According to a report in the Kansas City Star, "Several students told the newspaper that, while the idea of men's rights activists was not new to them, this was the first time they were aware of an attack on a feminist on campus." - - -"The university is standing down and not addressing the issue." -University of Kansas - -"These are men who don't even have a right to feel safe on a campus." -Sandra Stotsky - -"The issue is these are not normal people we're dealing with and it puts our university in a very dangerous situation. I feel violated that they would try to ruin my education." —Sandra Stotsky - -"This incident just reflects how bigoted and patriarchal this society really is and the people who think they're above the law and not worthy of being treated the way we treat women are disgusting," said another KU student, Ashley Smith. - -Others disagreed, and pointed out that while the professor in question was indeed criticized by her fans for having the temerity to bring up her belief in "equality among the sexes," it was merely a discussion of the concept of feminism, rather than a statement against equality. - -"This incident happens to be a professor who has written and spoken widely on feminism, and she's using it and talking about it and not just saying, 'That's not what feminism means,'" said the student, who asked not to be named, as she and the professor are both on the university's public relations team.

But is it still relevant? (Spoiler alert: It probably is.) For all the hand-wringing over the party's political "death spiral"—and if you believe the GOP's latest autopsy—it looks like things may get slightly better after all. A number of pundits have taken to calling 2018 and 2020 "the Republican Revolution," a reference to the GOP's electoral success in 1986 of all years (when they won the Senate and House, and ousted GOP presidents, by large margins). - -This notion that the Party can and will once again do everything it used to do is, of course, nonsense. The Trump presidency isn't going to lead to a "revolution." There won't be a GOP Senate majority either. Republicans are still very likely to lose the House in 2018, and the Republican president will be heading off to a sixth term in 2020. But Miller is right to claim that the Republican Party is in good shape, or at least in better shape than the Democrats. - -So where is it good? The GOP has managed to maintain its electoral dominance in the states (i.e., all those states that voted for Bill Clinton in the mid-to late nineties). And in the House, the numbers suggest that the GOP is headed in the same direction, though its path is anything but clear. As the following graphs show, the House is the most conservative in the country relative to the median voter (the blue horizontal line represents the Republican median voter in each state), but it is not the most conservative in relation to the general electorate, which will be the Democratic Party's focus this election season. - - -It is noteworthy that in both the House and Senate, the Democratic Party is doing very well with the very young voters, who could prove critical in the next two presidential elections against Trump. It is worth noting, too, how different the two graphs look, particularly when it comes to the House. - -In the previous decade, Republicans had to deal with a Democratic Party that was more than able to field a candidate in every state, whether it were Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders. This year, that task might be easier for Democrats. But that does not mean the Republican Party will benefit from this. The "Republican Revolution" is like Ronald Reagan's promise of tax cuts—it is a slogan that helps motivate voters to go to the polls, but is almost impossible to deliver in the end. - -In any case, there is a big difference between a slogan and an electoral strategy. The GOP has had a lot of success at both, in the electoral sense. But the party continues to lose seats in state houses, congressional districts, and states that once seemed immune to its brand of political extremism. It makes little sense to cling to that slogan unless you're willing to change with the times—to embrace policies that reflect the preferences of the Democratic base, and to shift your focus to an electoral strategy that helps you win at the presidential level. - -That is, after all, what it was all about in 1986—and now even Dennis Miller is admitting that.<|endoftext|>HBO Documentary Films The Night Of - -HBO Documentary Films The Night Of is a 2016 HBO Documentary film that follows the story behind the sensational story of the Boston Marathon bombing to the year 2020 - -The Night Of premiered on June 4, 2016.

This project was mainly aimed at keeping costs down in order to build and sell the thing for as little as possible. I have been working on this project for over two years and over the course of that time I've learned things as a designer that I would never have considered. This is why I decided to share some of them! Please note that I'm not a programmer by trade and this has not been coded from scratch. I'm just a guy with a keen interest in electronics and microcontrollers. - -A lot of things I learned over the past two years are just so simple that you won't even need the fancy words here. - -Make a schematic for your project first. - -There are many different ways to draw schematics: Schematic View, Sketchup, etc…. I will describe in this tutorial which I find the easiest to use to build a project. - -You see two or three components in the illustration above. These parts are called 'subcircuits'. The circuit shown above is a four transistors 3.3V/250mA amplifier. This is a 'pure' amplifier and doesn't have any additional effects of any kind. It just runs a circuit. The circuit shows you how to connect the transistors for a 'pure' amplifier. - -With a schematic in hand you only need to connect one board in order to build your circuit. There are only 4 boards per circuit. This means you can work on two boards, three boards, or even four boards for a bigger, more complex amplifier. If you decide to connect multiple circuits together you could, for example, have your amplifier working in parallel with two transistors working in series for a 'dual-stage amplifier'. By the way, I was never good with the parallel design because I had a habit of using the wrong polarity on both transistors. That's why it looks like two transistors in parallel! This is a little bit more work for the designer but you can just fix it in your prototype before you print it out. Just make sure you use the correct polarity or you will see your amp in a dark, nasty glow. - -If you want to add effects, do so before the design is finished. This will help you to easily visualize the circuit when you are designing it and will also save you a lot of time. - -You will also want to connect the voltage regulators which are a common requirement. But don't connect them until you are sure that they are wired properly. Most Arduino/Genuino clones have the regulators with the power and ground wires facing towards the inside of the board. They should be plugged into your power supply so they don't leak. - -To connect the voltage regulation board you have to unsolder the wires for the red wire on the left hand side of both of the two voltage regulators on the left side of the board. If you accidentally remove these wires you are not going to be able to connect them again. Take a pair of pliers and pinch the wires to break the contact between the regulators. You will also have to remove or loosen the power/ground pin on the right hand side as this is normally connected to the breadboard. This is to make the connection easier (or less painful if it is a tight connection). To make this connection use whatever pliers you have. In my case I got a pair of pliers that I used to break the wire in the right hand side regulator. Make sure you are pliers free. - -Once you have the connections made the rest of the circuit should be pretty much self explanatory. Please keep in mind that these are 'specs' of the circuit pictured above and there can certainly be more or less depending for example on your board and how to build the amplifier. There are also slight differences between the AVR Micro and the other Arduino clones. The AVR Micro has more pins. One of the reasons I like it is for smaller power loads. I can fit this transistor inside a breadboard. I would also recommend adding some extra LEDs. This is not a particularly exciting build but when you look at the schematic you will see that the LEDs are connected directly to the 3v and GND pins on the 3.3V regulator board. This will ensure a much better voltage regulation as well as light the LED's. - -In the picture below you can see the LED's that will be connected to the Arduino/Mouser/Microchip's 3v3 and GND pins on the 3.3V regulator board. - -Now that the design is finished we can start working on adding the components to the circuit. - -Using the breadboard - -Here is the circuit that looks good on the breadboard. You can see that I removed the breadboard's connector for the voltage regulator so that I can work without any breadboard wires. This circuit is a bit better than the one shown -======================================== SAMPLE 24 ======================================== -Hansa, the world's largest Bitcoin exchange, is reportedly set to announce today that it will begin trading Bitcoin futures, a move that could give institutional investors access to Bitcoin's soaring price. - -Since its inception in mid-2014, Bitcoin's market cap has skyrocketed from roughly $1 million to almost $10 billion. But with Bitcoin's price currently around $16,000, it's hard for institutional investors to get exposure to such an early stage asset. The Bitcoin futures market, however, should give institutional investors easier access to the cryptocurrency because they'll be able to purchase "bets" — or shares — on the cryptocurrency's price in the event that it surpasses certain price thresholds. - -Advertisement - -The announcement comes a year after it was first revealed that the exchange would launch a Bitcoin futures market, and the news could give the market momentum as 2017 comes to an end. In a note on Wednesday, Reuters outlined this year's highlights for Bitcoin, saying: - -A series of new exchanges that provide investors new entry points into the Bitcoin market have opened their doors to volume traders, traders said as they bet for gains and losses on the virtual currency through futures contracts from CME Group and CBOE Global Markets on the CME's bitcoin Futures exchange, and from Cboe Global Markets on CBOE's bitcoin futures exchange. - -Futures, on the other hand, are traded between entities on a spot basis and don't involve any actual cash or gold in between. Investors are simply betting on changes in the price of Bitcoin in the future, with buyers buying futures on the expectation that Bitcoin will go up in price and sellers selling futures on the expectation that it will go down. Both sides of the trade are known as "betting." - -Despite the fact that most investors do not actually know the price of Bitcoin — even after being introduced through Bitcoin Cash — the price of futures is a way for financial markets to "see" what Bitcoin is really worth. For instance, in 2016 Bitcoin's price rose significantly above traditional currencies, leading to a large spike in futures prices. - -Hansa, after launching a futures market for Bitcoin in March 2016, said that it expects to list Bitcoin futures on April 30.<|endoftext|>The European Union is threatening to impose new trade sanctions against Russia unless Moscow changes its approach to Ukraine.

And we are also calling for a political response from Ukraine that reflects its commitment to democracy and respects the interests of all of the Ukrainian people," Lew told ABC News. - -Washington and its European partners have already imposed sanctions on Russian officials and businesses linked to Crimea, the Black Sea peninsula that is dominated by Russia and has been annexed after Russia's annexation of Crimea in March. - -Lew's comments come hours after U.S. officials said the United States and European partners will impose new sanctions on Russian companies, banks and individuals. - -There have been recent reports that Moscow is considering sending troops into Crimea, but so far the Russian government has denied the reports. - -"We are also asking that the Russian be allowed to use military means only to protect ethnic Russian speakers who were under threat, to defend Russian interests and to avoid the tragedy there that I think really calls up a broader set of issues," Lew said. - -He was speaking on ABC's "This Week" program, which will air live from Brussels on Sunday morning (2000 GMT). - -He reiterated President Barack Obama's stance that any Russian attempt to annex Ukraine's Crimea region "will be unacceptable to the international community, will not be tolerated by the international community, and will trigger costs and consequences to Russia that will be determined by the international community". - -"We believe Russia has until now failed to live up to its responsibilities but we continue to believe this is not an option that is going to be tolerated," Lew said. - -He also said Russia's economic ties with Ukraine would have to be reviewed if the peninsula was not annexed. - -Lew said his message to Russia had been that it should make a "serious effort" to defuse tensions with its neighboring state. - -"They are, of course, going out of their way to create tensions and tensions that are increasing tensions. And in the final analysis Russia's continued attempts to engage in this are going to be unacceptable to the international community," Lew said. - -His public words appear to be aimed at President Vladimir Putin, who has repeatedly denied any involvement in Ukraine's unrest. - -Putin has sent his foreign minister to the United States and is expected to meet on the sidelines of the G8 in Northern Ireland on Sunday, where the unrest in Ukraine is likely to top the agenda.<|endoftext|>It's that time of year again: Halloween.

Now, in the last two weeks of the season, the team is off until March 28 to get away from the "stadium jungle" of Manhattan and start the summer training camps for next season. After playing every other day, NYCFC have a very difficult week to rest ahead of the 2017 MLS season opener. - -On Wednesday, the New York squad got the full treatment at the Brooklyn Institute of Technology's Nippert Stadium as a new season started with a good old friendly in the South Bronx. The game was hosted by the New York Red Bulls on the old 2K Field. We saw a few familiar faces including Frank Lampard, David Villa, and Chris Rolfe, whose father, Tony, is the President of the club, and who has been a supporter of the New York team since it was known as the MetroStars. The atmosphere was very reminiscent of the days when the Brooklyn Ultras helped lead the squad to the MLS Cup Final back in 2008. - -The Red Bulls had been looking for a game against the visiting team, as they faced the likes of Chicago, DC United, Toronto FC, Houston, and Seattle during the spring season. After being the only opponent eliminated from the playoffs during the spring season, they were hungry to prove themselves again. They dominated the first half of the match with some great attacking play and possession, which was a departure from their last match in Montreal. - -With less than an hour left on the clock in the first half, the Red Bulls took the lead in dramatic fashion after another dangerous chance was created by Mike Grella, however the goalkeeper, Luis Robles, made the stop with a reflex save to keep the score line level. After a half hour, the Red Bulls added a second goal through a great pass from Sacha Kljestan. After some fine passing between Mike Grella and Mike Grella, Kljestan passed it to Bradley Wright-Phillips who put a wonderful strike into the near bottom left corner past goalkeeper Miguel Gallardo. New York had a one goal lead going into the break and did not look like conceding a goal in the second half and were only denied when Sebastien Le Toux, who was brought on as a half-time substitute, played a long throw-in and it resulted in a goal. NYCFC pulled even as an 86th minute goal from Wright-Phillips put the score at 3-3. - -It was an excellent week for the New York Red Bulls and despite what could have been a disappointing draw with the New England Revolution, they will look forward to getting a chance to bounce back next week as they wrap up the regular season at Red Bull Arena against FC Dallas. - -New York City FC Match Report - -NYCFC 1-1 Red Bulls - -1:05 p.m. EDT, Monday, March 21, 2017 - -Red Bull Arena - -Red Bulls Head Coach Jesse Marsch made six changes to the team that suffered a 1-0 loss to Toronto FC at Yankee Stadium, including the introduction of midfielder Jack Harrison. - -MATCH REPORT: New York City FC vs. New York Red Bulls - -Shaun Wright-Phillips led the Red Bulls with an assist and scored his first MLS goal (his second since joining the team on July 14). Bradley Wright-Phillips was the only other Red Bulls player not to earn an assist as he was substituted into the match. - -Federico Bravo made his first start in the midfield of NYCFC in place of Alexander Ring. Marky Delgado and Patrick Mullins were brought on in the third and fourth thirds of the lineup, respectively, in place of Alexander Ring, Yangel Herrera and Rodney Wallace. - -RBNY Head Coach Jesse Marsch made one change to the team that faced the Montreal Impact in the first match of the season, as he replaced Jay Heaps with Luis Robles. - -New York City FC Lineup vs. New England Revolution - -NY: Sean Davis, Ronald Matarrita, Kwame Watson-Siriboe, RJ Allen, Khiry Shelton, Gideon Baah, Andrea Pirlo, David Villa, Andrea Pirlo - -Notes: The Red Bulls have allowed an average of 1.1 goals per game during their last four matches (3- -======================================== SAMPLE 27 ======================================== -The best part of these episodes is that it's all completely true.

Even the smallest and most basic of our online communications and interactions are influenced by what others post about them. - -My friend Matt, who just left his job in Hollywood in search of a better gig, posted a comment on my Instagram post about my love for The Simpsons on Thursday. According to him, this was a huge mistake. - -Well, Matt was right. - -The fact that he decided to post this comment without actually watching the episode (he probably just skimmed my post) is the main problem here. And if there is anyone who needs extra evidence that this is the internet, it's Matt. He posted this comment before he had even watched the episode. - -I would like to apologize to Matt. I apologize to anyone who might have taken his comment the wrong way. - -The sadistic little social media meme he took a moment to post was a viral, extremely powerful, and totally true story. People can get fired for making dumb decisions, especially ones as big and life-changing as a move from one job to another. But there is one thing you can't get fired for, and that's saying something dumb online or about someone else's feelings before you get a chance to watch the episode. - -I don't have any beef with Matt, I've never met him. I hope he gets the job he seeks. But what he did in posting this is extremely disappointing to me. It is one of the most pathetic things I have ever seen on the internet. People get upset because a joke they don't feel funny is published online. You can be fired for posting offensive content online, but Matt took a step further by making a joke that people found funny because his boss would probably fire him if he tweeted that. - -So, I have a question for you, Matt. What's next? - -This is your last chance. I want you to tell me if this can be the first step down the path to being a social media sadist. If a small part of your social media posts involve making fun of someone, can you imagine what it would look like if you posted something negative about a coworker? - -Just imagine. - -Can you imagine the social media shitstorm and media panic if you said something about a woman, and a bunch of your followers jumped on the bandwagon before you even watched one single episode of The Simpsons? I just don't think it would be that hard for The Simpsons writers to make you look like a terrible person on television, or at least they would let you have an excuse to. - -I promise, the writers would not give you that excuse for the post you posted just now, right? - -Because you did.

In all cases, the two basic steps will be to first apply a pigment to a very dry piece of paper and then coat it with water and a bit of turpentine (make sure you leave the paper for hours at a temp of about 140* while painting). This, of course, is not the only way to do such things; there are a lot of methods and they are varied and not mutually exclusive. As for technique, you can either use your own paint or paint a bit of your choice onto a canvas. If you use a white watercolor, there is plenty of room for experimentation. It is advisable, however, to use a black paint or watercolor in a white-on-black setting, or at least a neutral tone to the colors." (Page 8 of Introduction by E.C. Beck)<|endoftext|>You're in luck.

It was released on April 10, 2014 for the PSVita via Sony Entertainment Network, and October 23, 2014 for iOS via iosupport. It is a direct sequel to the first game and takes place between its first and second season. The story takes place between the events of Payback and Claptastic Voyage. The player controls various characters in a post-apocalyptic world, attempting to uncover the mystery of Pandora along the way and defeat new threats along the way. The plot for the third season is still being explored, with characters still being playable, and Borderlands is being expanded with various side-missions with new and returning characters. The third trailer for the first season was leaked for the PS Vita on May 13th, 2013, but was cancelled before it was released in Japan. The second season was then released in Japan on September 18th, 2014, and in North America and Europe on October 14th, 2014. The third season is yet to be revealed, with a release due later in 2018. - -Contents show] - - -Gameplay - -A typical round of battle takes four to six minutes to play in the single-player campaign, and will last about 30 minutes in multiplayer. In the single-player campaign, the player is given control of numerous characters throughout Pandora, including non-playable bosses, enemies, and non-playable characters -======================================== SAMPLE 30 ======================================== -I started playing with the Arduino a month ago and in the process learned that writing software can be very enjoyable. This is not the case for the average person because for them programming is one of the difficult things to do in life but for me it was very exciting, in fact it made me a lot of money and inspired me to design some more projects that can make your Arduino more useful. I will try to give you some hints to make the process easier and less time consuming - -Software architecture - -When you start building something complex the software architecture comes very early on. This is one of the key factors in the performance and quality of your work. If you have a good understanding of the architecture you can use it to make the whole system simple by separating the logic in small, simple units. In the following I will explain more about the architecture of the Arduino and how to make your code simpler. - -The most important thing in this architecture is the digital I/O pins. If your project involves reading from these pins you need to understand that each I/O pin is responsible for delivering a single digit of the input from the analog inputs. So if you are using only 1 analog pin for example, you must understand that each pin's task is to deliver a 1 or a 0. - -The analog input pins are labelled in the header pins file but they can be identified by the following name: - -P1A1, P1A2, P1A3 - -Each pin has two states: read/write and low/high. In these two states the pins take a voltage range between 0 and 5v and convert it to a range of 1 or 2 on the digital I/O pins: - -To convert a 1 to 0 you use the following formula which works for almost all types of digital pins: - -const int analog_max = 5; - -Each of these pins can provide a continuous range of 2v to 10v. Therefore you can use the following constants for reading/writing these inputs : - -const int analog_min = 0; - -const int input_low_range = 0; - -const int input_high_range = 5; - -In the digital I/O blocks it is important to understand the pin names and pin states as follows: - -Pin Name Definition read/write Pin Input is LOW Pin low Input is HIGH pin high Input is LOW low Input is HIGH - -The I2C pins can be recognized by the following name: - -I2C address 0 = SDA SCL pin address 1 = DIR SCL pin address 2 = DS SDA pin address 3 = DSR SCL pin address 4 = SCK SCL pin address 5 = SMCL SCL pin address 6 = RESET digital SCL - -After reading these pins it is essential to convert them to digital. You can do that through the following code snippets. - -int read_low(analog_pin) - -{ - -int value = analog_max; - -if (value < zero) - -return value; - -} int write_low(analog_pin, value) - -{ - -int value = analog_min; - -if (value > zero) - -value = value - 1; - -} - -To use these variables you need to declare them first in the arduino sketch to which they are needed. The following example does it : - -#include - - -/* - -* analog input pins - -* - -* SPI usage - -* - -* The digital I/O pins can be used for both reading and writing. Use the - -* pins numbers to identify them. If using multiple pins, you must declare them - -* first in the arduino sketch to which they are needed. */ - -#define analogPin 1 - - -void setup() { - -// initialize the analog pins - -pinMode(analogPin, OUTPUT); // switch on (0) digital pin - -Serial.begin(9600); // start the printer at 9600 baud - -} - - -void loop() { - -// Read the pin: - -// Serial.read (); // get the value from the serial read line - -// Serial.print (ANALOG_PINA1); // set pin number to the value (analog pin 1) - -// Serial.print (ANALOG_PINB2); // set pin number to the value (analog pin 2) - -// Serial.print (ANALOG_PINB3); // set pin number to the value (analog pin 3) - -// Serial.print (analogPin); // display the value of the pin - -} - - -// Create a new value to be written to the pin: - -void write_value(analogPin, int value) { - -Serial.print (value, -======================================== SAMPLE 31 ======================================== -"The question was, 'Is Hillary going to win the popular vote?' And the answer was yes, she was. We all knew that. Now we're going to find out how accurate it really is. That's probably, like, a pretty accurate thing that they did." – Alex Jones - -For quite some time, the establishment media has been projecting a strong Clinton victory in the upcoming 2016 presidential election. Most of the news reporting about the upcoming election has been based on polls that suggest Clinton will easily win the election, while disregarding the huge polling errors that are often attributed to pollsters. - - -Although most mainstream media polls are completely unreliable, as of early June the mainstream media had been projecting a Clinton victory into the very last day, a Clinton victory that is now all but guaranteed. - -The reason that most mainstream news organizations have failed to even acknowledge the vast polling errors is partially due to Hillary Clinton's huge poll lead. When a candidate is ahead by double digits for so long (as was the case with Hillary Clinton in Iowa and New Hampshire) and has high name recognition, they can effectively manipulate media reports. - -In a recent article from Zero Hedge, Alex Jones explained this phenomenon in detail. According to Jones, "The question was, 'Is Hillary going to win the popular vote?' And the answer was yes, she was. We all knew that. Now we're going to find out how accurate it really is. That's probably, like, a pretty accurate thing that they did." - -While the exact details of poll cheating are difficult to determine, I feel like we are on the cusp of an unprecedented, worldwide polling failure. In the years since Trump first announced his candidacy, his poll numbers have significantly risen in all major polls, both for Trump and Hillary. In fact, even as recently as last month Hillary's favorability rating remained at 58% and her net favorability rating remained at +29, indicating that Trump did not suffer any major poll drops in the months after announcing his campaign. - -As I recently pointed out, Trump has been polling at or near 50% in the most recent polls for months. This is a level of success that most of us never saw Trump reach in 2014. - -Additionally, the establishment media often appears to ignore the real issues affecting the American people. For months, Bernie Sanders has been gaining momentum with a surging millennial base, an extremely favorable millennial-to-millennial poll, and the fact that most millennials have no interest in voting for a candidate because most of the news they consume is about the elite of the United States. - -Many polls have found that millennials are much less likely to support one of the two candidates for president that they identify with. In fact, if millennials vote for the Democratic candidate in a general election, they are predicted to do so for Clinton over Trump by 10 percentage points. - -When you put all this together, I feel like we are rapidly approaching the point when a significant percentage of America's youth will choose to not vote. I have never seen a time in political history when voters were so disinterested in their politicians. This will likely continue to create a massive problem for the United States going into 2020. - - -If that is the case, one of the most likely outcomes could be the Republican Party imploding. It is a massive risk to take if a number of the GOP's candidates, particularly ones in states with heavy anti-establishment sentiments, are losing. It is also extremely unlikely, since polls tend to assume that voters are very interested in the candidates they are supporting. If it looks like Clinton is going to win the popular vote, many of Clinton's potential GOP challengers will most likely decide that they have no better options after all. - - -If the polls are all over the place, how will Trump do if that happens? Is he going to become a much more mainstream candidate or will he continue to make outrageous statements that will draw huge crowds and bring in voters who simply can't get excited about the choice between Hillary and anyone on the other side of the aisle? - -Trump has a chance to be the first candidate to win both the Electoral College and the popular vote in presidential history. Given that we are in the midst of the largest election fraud in a generation, it has never been more important to educate ourselves on election fraud in order to ensure that our votes are accurately counted. - -As a result, it is more important than ever to check the "scientific" polling sites out online. It could be the difference between a historic victory that will help make Hillary the first female president and a loss that will cause her to lose in a landslide. - - -[Featured Image by Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images]<|endoftext|>From Hearthstone Wiki - -For the Hearthstone hero card, see Sludge Belcher (hero power). - -Sludge Belcher is a common neutral minion card, from the Whispers of the Old Gods set. - -How to get [ edit | edit source ] - -Sludge Belcher can be obtained -======================================== SAMPLE 32 ======================================== -I've seen more pictures of this car than a Lamborghini Egoista. I'm going to break the silence. This is the Ford GT. You might ask 'Whoa, hold up, who's Ford?' But I'm not talking about a company that's not making an F-150. I'm talking about another company that made the GT years ago, and I'm talking about an awesome car and amazing people. This is an F-150, but it's not that one. Not in the same way. And this is the result of a team of people at Ford that, while not making the F-150, and really not for many years, worked hard to create their own vehicle… a brand new one. - -I'll be upfront. It's not perfect. When Ford first debuted the GT 50 years ago, it set the car apart. It wasn't a Ford, it was a Mustang. There were no badges, no wheels. It was just a Mustang. They didn't know it was a fast car when they first built it. It was built for the North American market and it was an F-model pony-car that needed a manual transmission. But it was something different. It was something with its own character. - -Advertisement - -If we break it down in a way that Ford understood, it all makes sense. The GT 50 was supposed to be the fastest Mustang ever made — the fastest Mustang built even. The car didn't need to be super-fast. It just needed to be fast in its own right. The car took off the fastest Mustang ever built. It was not just quicker than the Challenger, it was quicker than anything you could get. It was faster than the Ford GT with its big four, faster than Shelby's GT500 and the other pony cars. It was faster than this car. The fastest Mustang ever made. - -At 50, the GT 50 is very much a 50-year-old car. It still holds up. Its numbers and performance remain on par with anything that comes on the market in a new year. Its age is what makes it special. In fact, Ford's engineering might be what keeps it special. It's just not a modern car. It's a Mustang that was designed in the '60s or '70s. It would have made an awesome GT car, but it would always be a Mustang. I think that's what's fun about it. We have that old school Mustang, because we have that old school engineers. - -Advertisement - -Now, why are you still reading? How is the car you're looking at, the car you just saw, the car above that you're so excited about, actually possible? I feel like I could buy one tomorrow and not just because of it being old. Even if it were new out of the box, and I just needed something fast, I'd get it. There's something nice about a car that feels like it's been there forever, because, really, that's what we do most of the time: we build old stuff. - -The GT's old school attitude is at the core of the car. The classic Mustang's attitude is also present in the GT. It's in the rear end, on the grille, in the look of the hood and the hood scoop. It's the little things that get people's attention. It's the way a car handles. It's the way a car looks. It's the interior. It's the way a car sounds. It's the way a car feels. It's the engine. It's the transmission. It's the way the wheel climbs. It's the way the engine responds. It's the way the car corners. It's all those little things that make cars special that we know, by far, make the cars faster. In other words, these little things all take a GT and make it feel like the GT of 50 years ago. - -Advertisement - -The GT 50, at the time in 1972, was a unique vehicle. It was the first Mustang to be powered by a V8 — a big V8 — which was a big deal. It was the first Mustang to be built with an automatic transmission. It was also the first Mustang to get all-wheel drive, just three years after the GT40 was unveiled. But all the things I just told you about are old-school, too. This was special because it was something that Ford had seen as a future market and a future opportunity. It wasn't for the money and it didn't come cheap to buy. It was just a special day for Ford. - -And there you have it. The GT 50. No, it wasn't ever as fast as this car. But the one thing about it I always say, is that Ford made one because they wanted to be part of history. Because they knew they never would make anything else. They don't make something simply because they think it's going to sell.

I'm talking about women who serve as mentors and role models, who teach and teach others, who speak out on policy issues, and who are, in some way, a part of a solution to a problem that affects all women. - -And I'm talking about women who don't work. - -Here are some of those women on the issue: - -"Many of my friends and colleagues, when they hear my comment, will often tell me, 'Your opinion doesn't matter, you're hired, just like everybody else,'" one women who teaches social studies said. "So if I have an opinion and I don't have any data to back it up, what could I possibly say? I'm always left wondering if I could say the same thing, or if I could, say, 'I have a good job, it's not what I'm doing.' If I just tell people that I have a good job, what is my point? I have to ask these questions and do research. And I still feel like I can only say 'yes' or 'no.'" - -Another woman working in a professional field said she didn't feel she was able to raise her voice to her bosses and bosses' bosses about a lack of women in their professions: "As a first-generation college student, I was never exposed to that kind of language. My first experience was a 'no' and an acknowledgement that I knew I needed to study harder, but I was often given a vague sense that we needed to work on the issue." - -Another woman, who works in the retail industry, said she didn't feel she had a platform, or ability, to talk about the issue, because her role is defined mostly by her physical characteristics: "My male peers have always treated the office situation differently at work. Male peers always seem to be in charge. They're always in charge of the budget, they always want the new thing, and I've noticed that females are constantly working as "experts." Male colleagues are always in charge. They want the new thing. They're always in charge of the budget. It's almost like there's a hierarchy in the office."<|endoftext|>Boeing's 787 Dreamliner can be made to carry a nuclear bomb on board, or the planes can carry nukes. - -The Japanese carrier has a strict policy of avoiding weapons, and has said that any nuclear-powered plane designed for the Japanese market will not enter service. - -"The Dreamliner, however, is being sold to a large customer as an aircraft that is capable of carrying a nuclear payload, and that is not the case," said Yasuhiro Takagi, a spokesman for Tokyo's Metropolitan Airports Authority (TMA), a branch of Tokyo's prefectural government. - -Advertisement Continue reading the main story - -The TMA regulates the sale of planes to airlines and the storage of weapons on planes.

The report cited a U.S. official as saying that both the Senate intelligence committee and the House intelligence committee, are examining the NSA program PRISM. The report was first published by Der Spiegel on Friday. - - -President Barack Obama on Monday defended the NSA's surveillance programs after reports emerged in the last few days that U.S. intelligence agencies had access to information from tech giants Facebook, Google, Apple and other tech giants that stored data about ordinary citizens. - - -"There are times where, just like in the 1950s, we don't know what privacy means.

The experiment is expected to end as soon as January 2018, and the ECB will decide whether to keep the program going when that time comes, Asmussen said, according to Bloomberg. - -It's not clear if the digital currency will be the solution to the speed issue, and while the central bank is aware that ethereum and bitcoin are among the projects working on solving that problem, it's still unclear if the new technology is the right answer, according to Bloomberg. - -The EPG's technical hurdles include an open API that only the ECB can access, as well as a low "settlement fee" of 0.2 percent, according to a central bank statement. - -However, the central bank is also trying to figure out whether digital currencies will be used in traditional banking systems, or if they could be used separately for financial services that need blockchain-like qualities, such as clearing and settlement, the central bank said.<|endoftext|>In the last couple weeks, the White House has launched a number of initiatives meant to "end gun violence." So far, however, there has not been much new on the topic. On Thursday, President Obama announced that the Department of Justice would create a task force to work on gun safety and said executive action was coming to curb gun violence. The following day, Vice President Biden released a list of measures, including gun trafficking sentencing enhancements, to curb gun violence. And on Tuesday, the White House announced a gun violence task force that included former Attorney General Eric Holder and Senator Dianne Feinstein. - -Unfortunately, while the administration has taken a step forward with new actions, it faces some very big obstacles. For starters, these initiatives would effectively end current gun laws, as they would ban all existing gun sales, regardless of circumstances or whether or not they are a registered owner. Further, the White House has promised that these strategies will be pursued and "vigorously pursued" in Congress. - -However, a bipartisan group of Senators led by Dianne Feinstein and Mark Warner said "no thanks" to Obama's executive orders on gun safety, Politico notes. - -Here is our summary of the various actions that Obama has taken and the problems to be overcome to have a serious and effective effort, or, if Congress is unwilling to act, to get a comprehensive approach taken. - -Executive Actions - -The Obama administration has taken several unilateral executive actions to "encourage further gun safety," Politico notes. The order was a follow-up to a series of executive actions that President Obama made when he took office in the White House, including: setting up a gun safety task force; releasing two guidelines to reduce gun violence; establishing a White House conference on guns; and creating a website to inform people how to be safer. The new executive order is to help with those tasks. - -The new initiative includes: - -New laws to ban bump stocks, military style weapons that can be used in "quick and semi-automatic" fashion. - -Improving background checks -======================================== SAMPLE 35 ======================================== -[The author's comments are in square brackets.] - - -If you are thinking of visiting the new museum dedicated to the works of Richard Mille, you will have to keep the date in mind. I'm sorry to tell you; the world's foremost authority on the works of Mille has decided to stop using his name. There have been rumors for some time that there was some kind of financial dispute, but I don't think that's it. I have just learned today that Mille would sooner have had the word 'Mille' permanently removed from the titles of his works and the names of all his heirs removed from the works in the museum. The problem is that if Mille is going to remove his name from his art then he also needs to remove it from the name. My best guess is that the heirs to the collections of his works are not the best people to be entrusted with the collections of the museum. - - -It's easy enough to find a replacement for them in the form of 'Richard Mille, The Artist.' The museum was named because Mille was a professor, but his teaching was so terrible that no one ever took up his invitation to visit his teaching studio. There is a famous line in the movie, 'A Christmas Carol,' 'We will not call it a museum, but a museum will name us.' - - -This is an opinionated blog post and I will be as blunt about it as I can possibly be. Mille might very well do well to follow the example of the wonderful art historian, John A. Mallory. I'm not sure the museum could survive having this individual as a part of its staff. If you think that is a problem then you are being a bit dramatic - I think it is a real and serious problem. - - -I'm sorry to be writing this post, but I want you to remember it for you and for Richard Mille. This is a museum whose name he created, where all of his works are housed, and to whose collections those works belong. And so it is unfortunate in that context that I have to say something about this decision to remove his name. I have come to accept that that will be my fate now, and so many people are going to have to suffer my having to say it. I will say only one thing: I don't think the issue here is about me. I believe that a real estate board is really an organization that is responsible to the community. And so I don't think that I is some kind of bogeyman or outsider. That is not my concern. I think that I am being treated like some sort of enemy, and I don't like it one bit. So for me there is nothing that is of greater importance than to know when I speak. - - -So please bear with me and remember this for you: I do not oppose your right to free speech. All I ask is that you keep it within the bounds of decorum and civility. - - -If you've read the comments on this particular post and you've been tempted to share your opinion about this matter, maybe I could offer you a helpful tip. As I said, I have decided to stop using these names because they are so unpleasant to use. You could start making fun of them by making fun of your favorite artist.<|endoftext|>If you are like me, I have one favorite color. I love it, and I know many others do too. When I see someone wearing a bright colored blazer, my heart pounds with joy. The color is so unique and so flattering to everyone. I know I will end up getting asked, "What do you wear to work?" At other work events, I am often asked, "How often do you get dressed up?" The thought of being asked such questions is quite scary. I also find the whole dress up stuff to be somewhat creepy. I'm not sure how many women have wondered why I am wearing my blazer when we go out drinking, since it makes me look so adult. I'm not sure how often you've wondered why I have a dark colored blazer (not orange) at a business job, when it would look so much better if I was dressed to go out on the town with my friends wearing my favorite color. How many times have you asked yourself, "Why is she doing that?" and "What is she thinking?" when you see a woman wearing something that "defines her" so strongly? - -I have learned one thing from a lot of people over the years: There are no right or wrong choices when it comes to looks. In today's society, we live in a society where we are always told what to wear. We are taught how to dress and what not to wear by our parents, by what our peers wear, etc.. There is often no room for any other considerations. We are told what to look like, whether we believe we have that in us already or not. There are no other choices left, really. We are given no room to question or choose -======================================== SAMPLE 36 ======================================== -There is no such thing as total control of information that are written on the Internet. Even if every government in the world was a computer and everything was being downloaded every second it is still impossible to completely get rid of any one person. - -The Internet is an immensely powerful tool. - -For example, even if the entire Internet was hacked into I could still find out about it, there are so many search engines online that it would be almost impossible for me to find out everything about everything. Even if the government can control information they would never get rid of all the information on the internet. The only way to truly control all of the information which is not on the Internet is to build some sort of censorship in place. - -However, if they build a censorship method with the Internet, then they could completely get rid of information that is available without that censorship. - -Just the fact that the government has a way to completely control internet content means that they must be getting full control of the Internet.<|endoftext|>The following is a list of minor details that are sometimes hidden, which are generally known by the staff but not everyone. - -If I am missing something else, please contact me.

There are three ways to view the Battle Information. - -1. A button on the right of the screen allows the player to switch between the main screen and the Battle Data screen. 2. A blue button (火) on the upper right of the screen allows the player to view character data. 3. A button (熱) on the upper right of the screen appears to be an option to view the status (HP, EXP, Level, Damage, etc.) of items. - - -Battle Data Edit - -The Battle Data screen is accessed by pressing the SELECT button on the main screen. There is nothing of interest in the Battle Data screen - it simply displays the basic data for the character. - -The following information is displayed in bold, and each number is shown as a percentage of that stat: - -HP is divided into 40 points; the highest value will be at 100%. - -MP is divided into 40 points; the highest value will be at 50%. - -EXP is divided into 20,000 points; the highest is at 100%. - -Damage is divided into 200 points; the highest one is 50%. - -Status is a percentage of all health (HP): 0%-99%. - -Level is divided into 40 points; the highest value will be at 100%. - -Equipment Edit - -Equipment are items that are used to strengthen a character's stats. Only one piece of equipment can be equipped at a time, but players can change their equipment after the battle ends. - -As shown on the right side of the screen (with the character's equipment in italics), the character's level is used as the base for the number, but it can also be modified through the character's weapons (a weapon will always have the same strength value for the same type of equipment). - -This data is also updated in the battle screen: the higher the character's level, the more damage they will do. The higher the weapon's level, the higher damage the weapons will do. - -Characters Edit - -There are a total of six characters in the game, each of whom has their own unique weapons and a color-coded type that is determined by rarity (green is common, yellow is uncommon, orange is rare, red is epic, and purple is legendary). The following is a list of all of the characters and how to obtain them. - -Blue characters have the best chance of being obtained, since all enemies must be killed to acquire them. The number in parentheses in their rarity is how many times they appear in dungeons. - -Toon Link - -Toon Link's sword, Lon Lon Milk, is a Blue sword. It can be found in the second of the Sacred Grove dungeons. - -Marth - -Marth's sword is a Yellow sword. It can be found in the same dungeon as Lon Lon Milk. - -Dark Pit - -Dark Pit's sword is a Red sword.

We are already in the process of dissecting it for every conceivable angle, but that will have to wait. The following week, in which Russell is allowed to compete in the "Kaoh Rong: Game Changers" reunion special, I can only hope for the best. - -What are some of the reasons for Russell to want to come back? Who is playing his best game at the moment? What can we expect from him on "Game Changers"? Let's get to it! - -I don't think Russell has been as honest and open about his thoughts on how he's playing as he has been in past seasons. So far, his approach has been to keep his emotions in check, to make sure he doesn't hurt anyone further, and just go out there and play the game. This is not the guy we saw in "Blood vs. Water." You can tell that he has thought this through in the past and that this could be his last chance to win one and maybe play a second time, so I think he is being very careful about who knows what. Maybe that is a good strategy. - -Is Russell trying to change how he plays the game? I don't know. But I wouldn't be shocked if he does get caught up in more drama. He's been an arrogant jerk for a long time now. I don't think he is going to change that. - -As I have been saying all along is that Russell's game has completely changed when it comes to Millennials. He has to play to get out of this game faster and he has to play his strongest alliance this season. It is not going so great for him right now with his alliance with Michelle and Tai. But I also think the way that the Millennials are playing this season is very interesting and has been very strategic for them. The big challenge has been to find their hidden immunity idol and, I think, they have it, though not quite yet. I think it is going to come down to trust between them and their alliance or the alliance of Jessica and Zeke. That is what really matters with this season. I think that they are all close to being at the point where they can be "the five" and that is going to create a lot of drama and alliances. - -I don't think Russell is on the bottom of this season. I think he is a very strong threat. I think with the changes to the way this game is played in the next two to three weeks, you are going to see a lot more "Russell Hantz" style gameplay if he has to. - -Last week was very interesting. So much so that it is hard to believe that this season is going to really be anything similar. As the host of a "One World, One Survivor" podcast series, I feel the responsibility to give readers and viewers all the information they need to make really informed decisions in coming weeks. - -That being said, I do have one more reason for Russell to be here. The "One World, One Survivor" podcast podcast series is my second podcast. In fact, it was my first podcast ever. When the podcast series began, the goal was to start up a new podcast every week for a total of 30 weeks. It wasn't meant to be a weekly television show. That was just sort of a fun side-project idea. - -Now, the goal for the podcast is to help viewers get better insights on some of the hidden and not-so-hidden stories of the season, which they can be sure to find out about if they don't tune into the podcast. So I am hoping that after listening to this week's podcast, anyone who is not watching "Survivor" and who hasn't looked into the "Survivor: Game Changers" podcast series will take the time to do so.<|endoftext|>We've seen it before, but we're excited to see a new version of Microsoft Flight.

Well, because it's an unusual matchup that has a "hostile" vibe for many football fans in New Orleans and Atlanta because it's the fourth consecutive Thanksgiving game in the city, and the fifth NFL game since 2013 — one with a home team playing without a home city — that's been called "hostile." - -While this may be an unusual game to call "hostile," we are not the first to point out how many games have been called "hostile" since last year (and there have been numerous more since then). In fact, we are the fifth consecutive article in the past four months to highlight other Thanksgiving games that were the recipient of the designation. - -The list includes: - -• Cowboys-49ers Week 1 2012 - -• Buccaneers-Saints Week 6 2015 - -• Panthers-Lions Week 7 2015 - -• Chiefs-Jets Week 3 2015 - -• Bears-Packers Week 12 2015 - -• Steelers-Raiders Week 15 2015 - -• Chiefs-Rams Week 10 2015 - -• Chargers-Cowboys Week 16 2015 - -So, yeah, it's not exactly friendly weather for the NFL, and that's just the tip of what's a pretty ugly football game on the other side.<|endoftext|>I just finished watching the film "Sleeping with the Enemy". - -The film is an account of the actions of Canadian special forces operating in northern Afghanistan during the winter of 2005/2006. I have read several accounts of the same events; these may be summarized in four short passages here, in order that you do not miss anything. - -The Canadian Special Operations Forces (CSF) team from the 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (the PPC) is dispatched to a remote area in northern Afghanistan, to a village inhabited by local Taliban militants and their supporters. They travel in convoy of two Canadian Armed Personnel Carriers (CAPC), which carry at least seven soldiers, a medic, a vehicle commander and three weapons. - -The team arrives at the village. According to the team leader, a number of Afghan villagers were trying to flee the area. At this time in September, 2005 there was no sign of any coalition airstrikes by night or day. - -At this point in the film, I saw the video. Apparently, the video was made in November 2005 or early 2006, and the village was in the process of being blown up by ground and air forces – I do not know if it was by U.S. planes, or Russian. This action may have killed or injured many Afghan villagers, including the team leader. The soldiers' lack of protective gear and the improvised explosive devices that had been planted in the village do not help their situation. - -The team leader orders a mortar round thrown from the top of a helicopter. The mortar round is meant to clear cover from the Taliban, if there is any. It also is possible that the team leader himself may have been killed as a result of his efforts. - -As the team moves closer to the village, gunfire erupts – but no one comes to help. The team leader returns fire. It is the beginning of a mission in a "fire fight", in which two soldiers are killed, some of the insurgents killed or wounded. - -At about this point of the film, the Taliban are said to have gathered in a nearby house. The Afghan villagers apparently are fleeing. A few gunshots of machine-gun fire and explosions and a few women come to the rescue of those who are trying to escape the area. - -The team leader says to his team-mate in Russian, "let's move in", and starts moving his team-mates to the roof of the home that the villagers are occupying. - -I am very much interested in the role that the Canadians were playing, but this is a story for another post. - -The following are the four brief quotations that I remember from the Canadian army website that describe the incident. The text is from the Canadian Forces Combat Camera. - -As part of Operation REASSURANCE, 4th Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, the 1st Canadian Division conducted an early morning ambush during a village engagement in Northern Afghanistan in May, 2005. Canadian troops were able to locate and eliminate an enemy outpost in a residential house, whilst insurgents were firing on a nearby village and their outpost was successfully repulsed. - -"During pre-deployment training, our snipers are in-country for three weeks and this includes 3-D training, live fire training, and night operations," said Senior Non-commissioned Officer (NCO) Jason McIlveen, the team leader. "It is important to train for this type of scenario." - -The PPC was the first Canadian unit to train extensively in -======================================== SAMPLE 39 ======================================== -New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was fined $2,500 yesterday for his comments that appeared to have been directed at the referees during Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, NFL officials said today. - -In an interview after the game, the 27-year-old Brady said the referees were making "terrible calls" during his team's 30-13 loss. He said they were "always looking the other way" in other games, too. - -"Every time we get the ball in our hands, they're trying to call a penalty on us," Brady said. "This is the easiest thing in the world to do. But for some reason, sometimes it just kind of gets stuck, if you ask me." - -He said he didn't believe anyone was really making bad calls and said the referees just had to "know better" before the end of the game. He also accused the officials of favoring the Rams. - -"We're going to give it to 'em, they're going to give it to 'em, but we are doing our level best to give it to 'em," Brady said. "They're always looking the other way in this league, that's why." - -New England head coach Bill Belichick, one of the league's favorite coaches, was equally furious with how the rest of the game was officiated. Belichick said he felt Brady's comments were disrespectful. - -"I was really, really disappointed in how that went," Belichick said. "I really was. I have great respect and love for him as a coach. He's had so many phenomenal seasons. And the kind of comments that he made are not appropriate to anybody in this room. It's just very wrong."<|endoftext|>A British newspaper outlet has published what may be the first interview with ISIS' leader – and we're not talking about Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the man pictured above. - -The Sunday Times, the UK's biggest-selling paper, published a story titled "The Caliph is living life to the full. His eyes tell you about his life". The article featured a video interview, conducted by an unnamed British journalist, with the self-proclaimed caliph. It went on to provide other details, including an alleged interview with Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, which was also published Monday by the ISIS-affiliated Daily Mirror. - -The video, which has been widely viewed on YouTube, is purportedly of an interview with Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, also known as Abu Duaa al-Britani, an Iraqi who lived in Syria and swore allegiance to al-Baghdadi during the last days of the US occupation of Baghdad. Abu Duaa said Baghdadi "looks younger than his years" and "has his hands and body covered in an extravagant moustache, and he wears a beard with a distinctive white streak". - -In the interview, Baghdadi is in his early 30s, dressed in a military uniform and carrying a Kalashnikov rifle and a pistol. His wife, a woman of "stunning beauty" who has "a strong character", says that he is "a man of peace". - -A British journalist interviewing Baghdadi - -In response to questions from the journalist, the caliph – who is the leader of the group of fighters known as Islamic State – says that his "mission is not to talk to the media", and says that Baghdadi is "not going anywhere." His voice cracks as he describes Baghdadi's "dreams." - -"The dream is that everyone should join the Islamic system", Baghdadi says. "What I want for the Islamic system is unity and cooperation," he says. "As I have seen many times in my life, when we cooperate there are benefits for both sides. So I see my dream as reaching people and working to help unite them." - -The interview is said to have started on 4 February this year, when Abu Duaa was contacted by the British journalist "in an anonymous phone call". - -The British journalist met with Abu Duaa first at the camp he had established in Syria to train fighters in the use of modern weapons and explosives. He followed the caliph on his way to an area called Tel Abyad which he claimed had been taken from the "Turkish army". - -Once he reached the battlefield, according to the reporter, Baghdadi "spoke in a very calm tone, very humble". He "recalled" the time when he was "in prison in Mosul" and said: "Now I see Mosul like a second paradise." - -When asked about his wife, who the woman says had a "strong character" until recently "when she lost the confidence in herself, she made a lot of mistakes", Baghdadi replies: "I am very happy with her." - -It is here that Baghdadi tells the interviewer that he hopes to get married, and that he was engaged when he was in prison. He says that he wants -======================================== SAMPLE 40 ======================================== -In the last few days, I read a couple of interesting articles and tweets about "the age of the robot". The first one was about the age of artificial intelligence and the second one was about the birth of the "Age of Robots". In the last paragraph of the article I realized that the robot was a man, a super-human in every sense. In my previous article, "The Age of Machines", I made some interesting comments about the "Age of Machines". The comment I left back then was that the next few decades will witness the development of a new technology that will have profound global consequences. The question was whether or not such events ever can be prevented in our lifetimes, especially if artificial intelligence or "robotic automation" is able to replace many of the human jobs in our society. - -It turns out that there are not only a couple of interesting articles and blog postings about the "age of the robot" but also a couple of interesting tweets that can prove this prediction true! The article from the New York Times is entitled "The Age of the Robot" and its author is Nate Silver. He is a data scientist, not a philosopher. Yet his piece is an excellent exposition of how the "Age of the Robot" will affect our society. - -The article begins with a quote by Sir Arthur C. Clarke about the development of our present-day technology: - -For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the long run we are all dead. - -To put these words in a slightly different form: - -"For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the long run, we are all dead." - -The quote from Sir Arthur is followed by a sentence from Charles Dickens, that in my opinion is the best quotation about technology from any writer: - -"For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the long run, we are all dead." - -The article then proceeds to describe how technology is changing our human societies: - -"The biggest risk is that automation will cause unprecedented wealth and leisure for the "1%", who have the technology, wealth, and education." - -The article then tells us that in recent years, more and more people have been talking about the dangers of automated technology on many of the world's cities. In particular, there is a real trend in many developed countries, namely the increasing displacement of workers by technology with very little or no notice to the workers. - -The article then describes how in countries like Germany, Sweden and the US where robots are replacing humans, the cost of living has increased dramatically. The article also comments that in the US between 1950 and 2000 there was a net tax increase to the taxpayers from US citizens in order to give the money to pay for the new technology being created in the US, the same with other developed countries. - -The article then describes how artificial intelligence and automation technology allows a company to hire someone a job that once was occupied by a human being, eliminating his or her previous responsibilities and duties. If the new employee works on robots, the company pays almost no tax, even as he is providing a service to the company, the benefits of which are almost free of cost to him. This, it would seem, is a very good illustration of our economic system's current model where a corporation's main goal is to be as profitable as possible and not worry about its workers. - -The article ends with a final quote from the author "The Age of the Robot", referring to those who have already foreseen the danger of "the Age of the Robot". - -"Those who predicted that robots would take our jobs never mentioned that in many cases we already have robots that are taking over some of our jobs." - -The article is a very well-written and informative one when it comes to the topic of robotics and the consequences that this new technology will bring. - -What do you think about this article on the "Age of the Robot"? Let me know in the comments below. - -Also published on Medium.<|endoftext|>Halloween is approaching, and as part of the festivities, many folks will be dressing up in costumes and heading out to a houseparty dressed as a superhero or other famous character.

Frederica Wilson (D-FL). Rep. Wilson's account of a phone call between the President and the wife of a fallen U.S. soldier created the latest flare-up in the heated presidential campaign. - -"In your actions on Monday, you have created a crisis of confidence for all Americans who value their democratic institutions and democratic values. In this difficult moment, we believe that you owe the president of the United States an apology," the letter said. - -While the Congressional Black Caucus did not state their specific demands, the letter to Trump said, "we call on you to issue a full and immediate public apology to Rep. Wilson, an apology that respects the dignity of all Americans and recognizes the sacrifices of all our soldiers who have sacrificed so much to keep our country safe." - -The letter was signed by the entire caucus. - -Wilson appeared on Tuesday's edition of CBS It's The Morning Show with Matt Lauer to respond to the letter, defending the Black Caucus members' positions as well as Rep. Wilson's actions. Wilson went out of her way to explain, what she saw as her motivations for writing the letter. - -"When this happened, it was an honor and a privilege to be able to sit in that chair. It's a privilege, and a responsibility, because when you are sitting in that chair, the President of the United States walks in that door, walks out of that door, and, you know, people say, what does he think? You know what? You walk out and you have to say something," Wilson said.<|endoftext|>If you had a problem with your credit card, you can't always get a full refund of the difference between your purchase and the advertised price. That's because your credit card company may make its own markups to ensure you don't get ripped off by merchants. If you want a complete refund or partial refund, you'll have to file a chargeback. - -Chargebacks are claims that merchants made to credit card companies after the amount of money they were charged was too high. As we've said before, however, the process is relatively easy. You simply go and prove your case with the help of a credit card chargeback dispute form and the credit card company. Once you've presented all of the evidence necessary to prove a chargeback, your credit card company will initiate arbitration of the dispute as described in this post, -======================================== SAMPLE 42 ======================================== -A few months ago, an article in The New York Times was met with a chorus of "meh." In hindsight, maybe it was right after all? In any case, my colleague Eric Toms, along with a couple of his colleagues, decided to get to the bottom of it all. So here are the original articles by Toms and his colleague and a few helpful observations from The Times: - -The Times report includes the following: - -An editorial page editor for The Times declined to name the woman but said that she was a columnist who had been writing for the paper for more than a decade . . . - -The Times story went on to list three other women who are now identified in the story. - -In a comment to Eric Toms' story , reader Bob H. asked if the Times is currently looking into allegations by multiple women: - -I'm confused about the NYT interview where they were clear that three had been named. I have a copy of the article, but in the article it reads "three women" with no other detail. - -Hmmm. - -I have no idea what the Times is doing or who would have responsibility for the women at the paper, the one I worked for, or anyone else named in this story. I just want the truth out there. - -Thanks Bob - -I've received quite a few comments after posting of the Toms' piece about how this person at the NYT could make a clear case that some other unnamed people were named in the original New York Times article. What's wrong with me? - -I think this is a great question. As someone who was once associated with working at the NYT , I can testify to the fact that, for many people there, this person in the top brass of the print edition is not the person who really knows what's really going on. And that's not because he is secretly a jerk. It's because for many in the newspaper biz, it's a place of extreme pride to work at. It's a public forum where the only goal is the truth. But at the same time, it's one of the most important public forums, so it's a strange confluence of feelings between reporters and editors. - -It's a common story for women to come forward to the paper. The paper doesn't always do well with these stories. Remember when Janet Cooke made her sex tape public? Or when Judith Miller did a major story exposing the role of the White House and the Clintons in the Monica Lewinsky scandal? The paper's "we're always looking for those stories" credo just doesn't do the paper any favors. - -And here's the thing: The paper is owned by the same company (Gannett) where I had spent the majority of my journalism career (more than 16 years total) -- a company that has never done much for women or gay employees. - -I spent a lot of time at my editor's office at Gannett, and I can relate that when a story is strong we generally are able to get other stories picked up elsewhere because it can be a challenge to get a lot of attention and public scrutiny for just one story. The one thing about the New York Times and my New York Times experience is that when editors are comfortable about their stories, they tend to want to publish them. I can tell you that on many occasions I left the paper's office feeling more emboldened than I went in. - -Still, in fairness to the people with the most power and responsibility at the NYT -- the two people who are most responsible for the safety of the city's most vulnerable people -- Toms' report seems fairly damning. As we all know, when powerful people make sexual allegations against the weak, all of us are affected. I think that's a pretty good summary of the NYT's handling of the situation, with a few minor exceptions. - -I will just close with the following two thoughts I had just writing this article:<|endoftext|>About This Content A new expansion for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call Of Pripyat, adding a brand new area, new missions, new animals and equipment, and a host of new challenges, quests, achievements, items and more! - - -New area: Tselinoyarsk - A vast and remote region of the irradiated Zone, situated on the north slope of a mountain that has been completely blasted away. - - -New Animals: New animals to be fought in both the Chernobyl and Pripyat scenarios. - - -New Items: New items and weapon accessories with higher values. - - -New Challenges: New quests, challenges, and achievements. - - -Features: S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Call Of Pripyat - Call Of Pripyat is the third expansion pack for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call Of Pripyat.

Then the public heard about how bad the old logo was and that it was making them "uncomfortable" — because it didn't have the image in the middle (it had two stars with a star in between). - -The logo's creators had to change it because its image was making people feel uncomfortable. - -That was the "conversation" that took place between EFF (Electronic Frontier Foundation) and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), just as the group was creating its new logo. - -We were discussing ways to redesign the ACLU logo when I realized it wasn't "right." I was worried that some folks in attendance would come out of the conversation not liking the new logo, even though I believe in it. - -We got to discuss it even more, discussing how the ACLU logo needs to be designed for a certain group of people. - -Here is some of what we agreed on: - -The ACLU symbol needs to be used for a certain group of people. It's not something that can be shared widely. We needed to design the logo specifically to help the people we serve make sense of our work for them. - -I think this is why some people didn't approve the new one: It doesn't communicate its purpose clearly enough. - -For example, what does the ACLU mean to the world? It's not an abstract symbol that stands for a set of values such as freedom of expression and diversity. Instead, many use this symbol not as a stand-alone statement, but as a way to communicate some key message for their organization. - -The old logo made very little sense as a brand. Its lack of clarity meant people didn't know how they could find out more information about the ACLU. - -The new logo has a lot more content than the old one. The logo should tell a story (not a set of ideas), which is what makes it a perfect fit for the new mission of the organization. - -What is clear with this logo is that the people served by the ACLU are people who deserve to be heard (and protected) in times of need. If you are a human rights advocate and would like to support the American Civil Liberties Union as a nonprofit, please consider donating to the ACLU to help us fight for our values, protect people and prevent injustice. Or you can visit us online. We can't do it without your support. - -I have a feeling this "conversation" was very fruitful — but it didn't happen on the day it was supposed to!

This is meant to be a base set of equipment to get up and running. Feel free to create your own custom setup. I'll try and keep it up to date with as much information as I can find. This is not a configuration guide. - -Prerequesites - -1. If you are intending to use a monitor that supports hdmi, a USB 2.0 graphics card is required if you want to use raspbian at all on your Raspberry Pi. The first raspbian image I used did not include a monitor and there was a huge time lag during setup, and sometimes not until the end of the day. So, install an hdmi driver which will solve most of those problems. There are many places to download this driver, but I have a copy here from the Raspberry Pi Foundation itself. - -2. If you currently have an SD card that is the same size as your pi and you want to install a new drive, it cannot be an older model with less than a gigabyte. You cannot remove the old drive and then install a new drive which can be as small as a megabyte. So be sure to use an SD card that is the same size for the entire setup. You will then add that to the list of choices below. - -3. If you've just added an SDHC card, you will probably want one where the filesystem is either ext4, FAT or ntfs. The Raspberry Pi foundation states that both of these options are available in the default image, and so I'll default you to that. If you have a new card that is not listed here, I'm sure you can find a version of raspbian that suits your needs. - -4. If you're on Windows, please install the Windows drivers for your card and the monitor so you can setup with it running in full HD resolution. It's nice to be able to use a full resolution monitor in a virtual environment. - -5. If you're installing on a Mac, get a USB mouse or mouse pad as well and your will need one that supports multi-button mouse clicks. - -6. You may also be able to work with your SD card via the serial port, but this requires more set-up, and could potentially harm your card. If you choose to try this, you will likely be better off using the HDMI cable for better image quality. If you need a cable of any kind, be sure to read this page as well to see how to use the Raspberry Pi's HDMI to SD adapter. - -7. Download and extract the latest image from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. You have two options here. You can download the image as a zip from the raspberrypi.org website, or you can download individual raspian images from the forum thread. - -8. If you're using the image from the forum, use this image to setup as per the instructions there. - -9. If you haven't downloaded the image yet, use this image to download. Extract the image using Win32 Disk Imager, and then double click on the image to mount it on your desktop. - -10. Plug your SD card into the Raspberry Pi, and into your monitor. Make sure the USB device is plugged in before you boot the install process and check that it is correctly connected. If you're not sure what USB device it is, simply plug and unplug your USB device until you get an error while checking that it's connected correctly. This might require that you disconnect the USB device from your computer's system power first. - -11. Make sure your computer is powered on, keyboard and mouse are properly connected, and the Raspberry Pi is connected to the monitor. - -12. Once you see a new menu for configuration, make a note of where it is located in the future, or at least the name of it. It is not necessary to go into the configuration screen to make changes, in fact, it's usually best to disable the configuration screen. - -13. You might get a warning when booting up that shows that something is not right with the Raspberry Pi. It only lasts a few seconds, and it will get better over time. - -14. Once booting up, you will only have one screen to work on. - -15. Select "Raspbian Jessie Lite". - -16. The default username, password and login name will be your Raspbian installation name, with a default name of 'pi' on the Raspberry Pi. If you choose this menu option, the default raspbian login name will be 'pi'. If you choose to change or add a name, be sure to edit the pi user file: nano /etc/passwd, and add a new entry for your name. - -17. -======================================== SAMPLE 47 ======================================== -Roughly half a dozen Republican legislators from Maryland have joined with Democrats to urge President Trump to stop pushing legislation that they believe would create a discriminatory legal path for Muslims. - -"Our Democratic colleagues are united on this matter," said Sen. Robert A. Zirkin, a Montgomery County Democrat who is on the Senate Judiciary Committee. "But we don't have the full, bipartisan support of the president. That's why we have stepped up to lead." - -Zirkin is one of more than a half-dozen Maryland lawmakers who signed a letter sent Wednesday to the president. The letter was signed by Sens. Benjamin L. Cardin, Jr., the Maryland senator, and Gary C. Peters, the Democratic congressman from Baltimore County. - -The lawmakers wrote that they recognize that they cannot influence federal legislation, and that they "strongly support President Trump's executive orders." But they noted that they oppose "the current legislative proposal that creates a new pathway to citizenship." - -Zirkin said that he has been in communication via email with Trump's chief of staff, Reince Priebus, and legislative affairs staff, and that that they have encouraged him to change his views on the issue. - -"They're concerned," Zirkin said of the staffers. "If they can't stop the president on legislation, they can at least try to keep the president off the subject." - -The Senate passed the controversial immigration order last month, but only after it was modified by the House to include an exemption for those who have become citizens of the United States as a result of being raised in the country. The final version of the legislation still gives them a path to citizenship, and Zirkin said he intends to introduce a new Senate version of the bill in January. - -But he and other Maryland lawmakers noted that the president's order does not require a path to citizenship for those who were born in the United States. - -If the final House-Senate conference agreement on immigration legislation is ever made public, Zirkin said, "we want to make sure the provisions that were added, if there is an exemption, actually reflect the concerns of the governor of Maryland and the other lawmakers on the Senate and the House." - -"He's clearly concerned," Zirkin said of the president. "He was very helpful, and I'm sure in the coming days, he's going to continue to be very helpful." - -Sen. Brian E. Frosh, a Baltimore County Democrat, also signed the letter, along with Sen. Richard S. Madaleno, an Anne Arundel County Democrat, Sen. J.B. Jennings, a Montgomery County Democrat, and Sen. Joan Carter Conway, a Howard County Democrat. - -They wrote that they also oppose the "current proposal that creates a new pathway to citizenship for illegal immigrants" and "the current legislative proposal that creates a new avenue for immigrants to gain green cards." - -They wrote that they believe this legislative proposal violates federal law. - -"The proposed legislation, if signed into law, will make our state and country less safe and more divided," they wrote. - -Some Maryland Democrats have already vowed to oppose any bill that does not provide for a pathway to citizenship for all illegal immigrants, but Frosh said no matter what happens, he intends to continue opposing the legislation. Frosh said he expects that there will be a hearing in the Senate Judiciary Committee on the legislation at some point. - -"I'm just getting started," he said. - -Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan supports a path to citizenship for those in the country illegally, but Zirkin and other Maryland Democrats are hoping to build pressure on Hogan to veto the legislation. Last year, Hogan signed a "show me your papers" measure into law that requires police officers to ask people about their immigration status without first looking at their papers. - -According to the letter, Maryland senators and congressmen do not intend to withhold their votes from the next Maryland budget, but want to make it clear that the legislation is not good policy. - -"If you make it harder for these immigrants to qualify for legal status, you make it harder for them to get to work and stay with us," Zirkin said. - -Senate Majority Leader Catherine E. Pugh, a Baltimore County Democrat, said that she has received assurances from Senate President Thomas V.

It was later delivered back to Baa, an air storage company based in Boston. - -The flight from Boston landed back in Boston (file picture) at around 10pm, and was met on the tarmac by an armed escort of FBI agents - -Investigators said that the device appears to have been placed inside the lavatory by an individual who had been on the flight for about an hour. - -The FBI and TSA are currently working together to identify the individual who placed the device, but are also working to rule out any possibility that the event was a hoax. - -They said that, so far, there is not much evidence of terrorism that played a role in the event, but are trying to put together the clues so their investigation can continue. - -The FBI has sent the device to the National Bureau of Standards, a division of the Department of Energy, to determine if it is a threat to public safety. - -The company that manages the terminal at JFK, National Airlines, is cooperating with the investigation and has been cooperating with federal investigators.<|endoftext|>In the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey that is wreaking havoc on a devastated Texas and Louisiana in the US, it's clear that the Trump administration could really use some good luck. For the first time in a year, President Trump hasn't held a public rally to rally with supporters for hurricane relief. It's clear that, to a man and a woman, the President doesn't understand his own country and its citizens, and his administration could really use some good luck in these parts. - -After all, the United States has now lost five-and-a-half million Americans in disasters and the number of Americans in Texas is estimated to be as high as 30,000 in the most urgent need of help by the President and his top team. The president has repeatedly demonstrated that he's never understood what needs to be done and what is worth the effort to fix, but it looks like he's about to get lucky. - -According to reports from the White House this evening, the President plans to call the President of Puerto Rico, Ricardo Rosselló, within the next day or so, to thank him and help him get his head around the disaster which is now killing or hurting tens of thousands in his hurricane-ravaged homeland. - -This is a welcome and much-needed step for Trump, especially when you consider that the administration is still struggling with the fallout from the failure to respond to the disaster in Puerto Rico and has yet to put forth an adequate disaster response plan. - -President Trump will certainly want to avoid the pitfalls he experienced earlier this month when the White House refused to accept the resignation of National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, a man who has arguably been more qualified to be at the head of the NSC than any of the White House officials currently in that position; and he was replaced by Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, a man with a strong background in the US Army, a man who has been described as a "fiery firebrand loyal to President Donald Trump". It looks like Trump's luck might be about to run out.<|endoftext|>From a recent post at the Economic Policy Institute: - -The number and proportion of households with children is still declining in the United States. According to the 2014 CPS, 15 percent of children lived with both employed parents, the lowest on record since 1976. The decline represents the slowest progress in child poverty in 40 years. This trend stems primarily from the rise in single-parent households. - -In 1970, 17 percent of children lived with one employed parent. Now the figure is -======================================== SAMPLE 49 ======================================== -This is the second article in a series of articles exploring the role of media literacy and the web in the development of a well-informed citizenry. The first article discussed the role TV, books and the press play in influencing what people think and believe. - -The idea of a hyper-informed society is often bandied about without adequate evidence: why are some people better informed than others about issues as important as the economy? How can a nation be truly great when it has so little knowledge of its own existence? (see "Why does the world revolve around us: Understanding the role of media and the web in global governance.") - -As media literacy grows, these questions may finally be addressed. However, in their current state, media literacy education programs focus on a few aspects of public discourse: how to tell your story well, why media matters and how to navigate it. - -In many countries, media is a central source of information for citizens, but it is also a powerful medium, capable of communicating complex information in a manner that is easy to read and process. This raises the question: Why are more and more people not knowing more? - -Why isn't information spreading online as quickly as it is elsewhere? There is no question that the internet has become an important resource for the advancement of knowledge. This is especially true in the current climate of technological disruption. - -Yet, for all of the potential of the internet, internet usage remains much lower in rural areas as compared to urban areas. With low internet connectivity comes a scarcity of new information, in many cases because of the high cost of a telephone call. The cost of a traditional news outlet tends to be lower than internet access, both in the immediate sense of price and longer term, as they have a greater time frame on a regular basis. - -It is a difficult situation. How do we overcome the problem without simply giving up on public media? Perhaps a new paradigm is on the horizon. Perhaps we will see a global network of "hyperliterate" citizens in the new millennium, where information is freely available but it is also accessible at a quick, affordable and accurate pace. - -I'm a technology guy and, as far as I'm concerned, information is king. I believe media is the most potent medium we have as a society that should be used constantly and with the highest degree of integrity and scrutiny. I also believe that education is critical in this day and age. - -The Problem With "Hyperliteracy" - -In the mid-1990s, when the American Library Association launched the "Hyperliteracy Study," an academic study to determine the optimal educational curriculum, one of the major issues it addressed focused on media literacy, specifically how to teach it. - -Some educators viewed education only as reading or learning how to pass a standardized test and were not well versed with the issues of media. Others didn't see the value in educating students about the importance of media literacy and were uncomfortable with their role as gatekeepers to information. Others just didn't have time to focus on something which is so time consuming. There was also the fact that most of the work was being done outside of schools in schools of social work and school of journalism, many of which taught in print journalism methods, and students needed to know how to read to find the answers they were looking for. - -When I heard the term hyperliteracy, it caused me to take notice. "Hyper" is a powerful word. It is the basis for an entire series and, in a way, I became obsessed with it. I read everything I could about the topic. I visited organizations and learned about the subject. - -The result is that I am now a well versed reader of print and digital media. I do this because the issues I discussed in my first article, "Why is the world revolving around us: Understanding the role of media and the web in global governance," still apply today. - -What did the study discover? The American Library Association identified 22 media-specific competencies that are necessary to be hyperliterate: the ability to tell a simple story or piece of information in a timely manner, communicate information clearly and effectively, understand cultural and political values of various sources, understand and apply social and cultural information, and interpret the impact of different media and mediums. - -While most of these skills and competencies are important, it also included 21 core competencies, which were important to educators as a result of the study: knowledge of literature and/or culture, social responsibility, media literacy, interpersonal skills (communication, leadership, problem solving), time management, and the value of self-expression as well as teamwork. - -The American Library Association published a full summary of each competency in 2002 in its magazine, Hypercritical. - -The American Library Association also determined that students who scored high on at least one of the media competencies had increased academic achievement by an average of 20 percent and were not as vulnerable to cyberbullying (which the authors of the -======================================== SAMPLE 50 ======================================== -"The first thing we need to do is figure out all the facts, as we've made it clear he wasn't responsible for a lot of what happened at Pulse," said Orlando Police Chief John Mina.

Discoloration can be caused by the skin bacteria, candida. Many people do not take adequate care of their skin prior to and after a procedure to prevent it from becoming too damaged. In some cases, the bacteria may not be detected until the skin has healed and the discoloration is obvious – the result of poor postoperative skin care. - -A skin care system that takes full advantage of new technologies and the skin care industry's knowledge of the most effective techniques, techniques for maintaining healthy skin, and information on the prevention of postoperative discoloration may result in better cosmetic outcomes with fewer problems including healing and infection.<|endoftext|>The following page is a work in progress.

Materials for prosthetics - -The most important issue in regards to the construction of a prosthetic hand is materials. For a prosthetic hand, it is important that the object is safe, strong, lightweight, and functional. This section will examine the material choices currently available. - -A hand composed of metal materials is not as difficult to construct as one composed of wood or polymer because the material and shape can be more easily altered. This makes metal prostheses safer to wear, but they do not perform as well as wood. - -The prostheses found in the video, for instance, used a polypropylene plastic material. Plastic prostheses tend to be lighter and more malleable than wood. - -Metal prostheses, for the most part, are either -======================================== SAMPLE 51 ======================================== -RICHMOND – More than three dozen Richmond residents gathered Tuesday for a public forum on gun safety, held in response to the tragic massacre of six Americans in Newtown, Conn. - -The residents, from neighborhoods across Richmond, held signs and listened to speakers like Democratic state Sen. Richard "Dickie" Brown, who is pushing legislation that would allow people with concealed carry permits to use their guns to protect themselves and others. - -Brown said that he wants to know if people in Newtown need specific training on how to use a gun so that they could have self-defense against criminals like the shooter who killed 20 first-grade students and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary on Friday. - -"This is the most important day that I expect to be in this body since I've been elected to this seat," Brown said during one of a number of public forums. - -Brown described another event that drew more than 200 people at the University of Richmond Monday to discuss why the government should be looking to improve gun safety. - -Brown, a pastor who has said he considers himself a strong advocate of Second Amendment rights, said Monday's event at the university was part of what he considers "a new kind of civic engagement that includes a broader conversation about the role of guns in society" and "a dialogue that is rooted in facts." - -Brown said that his legislation should have been introduced sooner but it was also important to bring the debate out into the open. - -Sen. Scott Surovell, D-Fairfax, said there needs to be "a comprehensive evaluation in the state of Virginia to see what has happened here." - -"A comprehensive evaluation may not include that we should look to repeal our Second Amendment," Surovell said. "Some will say that there is no alternative but to repeal the Second Amendment. And other will say, well, how do you go about doing that? But I don't think there is any reason as a society to make this leap." - -The forum, hosted at the George Mason University Law Center, began with an event at the George Mason Community Center on College Green, where police and city officials held a brief news conference to offer condolences to families and friends of the victims and to urge everyone to make sure their loved ones have a plan in place, if they are left defenseless by someone breaking into their home or school. - -The city's Public Health Advisory Council later spoke to a room of people who identified themselves as gun owners, including several who said they'd not used guns in crimes in the last year alone. - -On Tuesday, the forum moved to the University of Richmond. Police officers guarded the gates, and a few attendees left after Brown began speaking. - -After about 20 minutes, Brown was in the middle of his comments when a woman began heckling him. - -The argument continued in the back of the conference room, as people from each side shouted over one another. - -Eventually, a member of Brown's team stood and spoke to Brown to ensure he was aware of the woman's behavior. The man, who declined to be identified, also went on to say that anyone who had the right to bear arms and was worried about what happened at Sandy Hook Elementary could be an NRA member. The man later told the audience that the forum "wasn't about the NRA or gun rights or about gun control. This was about gun safety." - -When the woman interrupted, the man explained he was part of a group that had called Brown. - -"I was on his team. I had him on the phone and had his staff contact me and say that he did not support this forum," he said. Brown took the podium and apologized for the interruption. - -"I just want to make sure you understand I don't condone this type of behavior," Brown said. "I'm sorry it got out the way that it did. … It's unacceptable. … If you do it, I'll make sure you go to jail." - -"It's clear this has become a very public issue. It seems as though if you had an opinion about it, you'd be able to find people who disagreed with you. … I just want everyone to understand this is very difficult." - -Brown said he felt as though an online petition he had organized and signed on behalf of the people from Sandy Hook Elementary passed 150,000 signatures. He said he was surprised by the turnout for the forum and he'd been told about the protest earlier in the day at the Law Center, which had been attended by about 50 people. - -The first speaker was Mike Leibson. Leibson told the crowd that he has "a concealed-carry permit" but isn't necessarily an avid shooter. He said that most of his family and friends support gun rights, but in today's society "you can't carry a firearm outside your home and go into a dark mall with your family." - -Leibson described the recent violence to which Newtown is a "perfect example," adding -======================================== SAMPLE 52 ======================================== -The following was delivered by President Trump to Russian President Vladimir Putin during a September 30 presidential meeting at the G20 Summit in Germany. - -As I said, we had a very successful meeting.

We have to have an agreement on that. - -First, Russia must recognize that the actions of the United States in Ukraine and Syria, which had great negative consequences, have consequences for the rest of the world. They hurt Russia. We want to help Russia to recover, to rebuild its economy so that it can become an attractive place for investments. - -The second point was a great question. This is not a matter of being tough or being smart, as you know. This is a matter of what's good for Russia. - -Russia and the United States are the only two nuclear countries. It's important to understand this and to really understand. The United States has significantly reduced its strategic nuclear arsenal over the last couple of decades from about 1,700 warheads to 1,000. I think that's a very big deal. We're reducing our nuclear arsenal, but not because of any threat. We're doing it—I think it's in our interest to do it. I think not for the reasons you might think. That's the way our country is. We are responsible— - -QUESTION: So there won't be a war? - -TRUMP: We're not talking about a war. We're not talking about World War III, believe me. Look, we're not talking about—we're talking about the reductions. We're going to be talking about some serious questions. And they have to do with the modernization of our nuclear arsenal. So let's hope that over the next period of time Russia and the United States can sit down together when it comes to nuclear issues. - -QUESTION: Was that a one on one meeting? - -TRUMP: It was a follow up. - -QUESTION: A follow up to what? - -TRUMP: It was a follow up to a very good meeting. It's going to take place. You're going to know when it's on. - -The third thing is I'm sure I'll be asked about Syria, but I think that this was one of the most successful meetings I've ever had, more than any other meeting I've had, at least with respect to all of the subjects you're talking about, that I can recall. But Syria is obviously a difficult situation. But Syria is not the only one when you look at North Korea. We're not talking about war. We're not talking about nuclear war. This was a very, very productive meeting, and I'm sure we're going to do—now I have to run, because it was such a successful meeting, we're going to do many other things. But we're going to have many other meetings. So be sure we are in the right state. - -Advertisement - Continue Reading Below - -Advertisement - Continue Reading Below - -Advertisement - Continue Reading Below - -All right, with that, we have— - -Now it is true I spoke with Vladimir Putin twice yesterday. - -HOLT: All right. But let me just follow up with you, Mr. President. Your press secretary said that you would come into the G20 and have a productive conversation with your Russian counterpart, but what did you actually talk about? Did you get to the subject of—or did the subject of sanctions—which the United States has imposed on the Russian financial system—were you able to work out some sort of a truce, a cease-fire, in terms of Syria? That would seem to be an issue that was—so that we do not start World War III. - -And, of course, you would never speak about that on the plane. - -TRUMP: Well, we did speak about the whole thing with Syria, and it was an amicable conversation. I can't believe it's two days since I spoke to him. I can't believe it. I was so happy I got to speak to him, and I got to be around him. It was an amazing day. - -I think we are in very good shape. We believe we are going to have very good chemistry. I think probably we will, as I said, in two weeks, go for the second summit, and I think we will have a very good chemistry, which, you know, we haven't had. There was obviously great chemistry between this gentleman and Secretary Clinton. We did have some very good chemistry when we met in Moscow a couple of months ago. I think that's going to happen again, and I think the world is looking to us and hopefully they will be looking to us—if we do what we should be doing—and we do that, we will have great relations and it'll be a good thing for Russia, and it'll be a good thing for the world, because Russia will be a respected country again. - -I -======================================== SAMPLE 53 ======================================== -Anxiety can affect the same parts of the brain responsible for the feeling of fear, but in a different order, according to a Canadian study published in the Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience. The findings could help identify individuals at highest risk of developing generalized anxiety and related problems, such as PTSD or anxiety disorders, the researchers said. - -"We looked at the functional anatomy of the anterior cingulate cortex, an area that has been implicated in the pathophysiology of anxiety disorders because of its involvement in fear. We wanted to know if anxiety was modulated differently depending on the context of fear versus alertness, and if different areas of the body impacted the order that anxiety and alertness came under control," said author Dr. Michael J. Fenton, lead author of the study and research fellow in the Departments of Psychiatry and Neuroscience at McGill University. - -The researchers found a direct relation between anxiety and the strength of connections in the brain's anterior cingulate cortex. The greater the strength of the neuronal responses to fear, the more "anxious" the person, which in turn, led to a less-restful state in the anterior cingulate. A decrease in these responses resulted in less-anxious people, according to the study. - -"In summary, when the brain has to choose between 'fearlessness' and 'anxiousness', it makes a more favourable choice," Fenton explained. "But when we consider the different ways in which a person perceives a potential threat, this choice can still be difficult." - -For example, the anterior cingulate cortex may respond more strongly to non-threatening events, such as being a stranger who is speaking to you, as compared to fearful ones, such as a person speaking to you and making eye contact. - -Fenton and his co-authors, including Dr. D. K. Datta from the Centre for Functional MRI, and Dr. Andrew D. Pashler of The University of Western Ontario, looked at the functional anatomy of the anterior cingulate cortices (ACC) in individuals with generalized anxiety disorder. They also examined their results in a group of typically anxious or low-anxious individuals. - -"What had us concerned was the pattern of neural responses in the ACC that came after a person experienced the fearful or anogenital threat. We knew that the anterior cingulate cortex responded to anxiety differently depending on the sensory environment of the threat." - -The results showed that while the ACC response depended on how the person perceived fear, the ACC responses came under the direct control of the brain's motor control centres. This was in contrast to when a person was aware that they had a problem. - -"This provides the evidence that the activation of sensory pathways could be influenced by the level of self-awareness," said Fenton. "By understanding the role of sensory systems in the neural control of anxiety, we may now be able to identify people who are more prone to developing anxiety disorders because of the way that they perceive the world." - -The authors said this could be useful in identifying individuals at highest risk. While studies of anxiety disorders that involve the use of brain-imaging technology do not currently exist, Dr. Datta said, future studies using fMRI and other imaging technology could provide new insights as to what is going on inside the brain of people at risk. - -Other co-authors of the study are Drs. David J. Pashler and David M.

(Ng Han Guan/AP) - -The U.S. company has been in the spotlight lately after a lawsuit was filed by a New York patent holder in the Eastern District of New York alleging that Apple infringed on three patents at least as far back as 2006. The three patents were related to the way that Apple handles iTunes software updates to its products, including iPod downloads, iTunes purchases, and Apple Pay online purchases.Apple has denied the allegations and, in a blog post, said that it doesn't license or sell "mobile operating system software" to other companies. Apple's own legal team is representing it at this point and is looking for a compromise, but there would have to be approval of the lawsuit from the judge.Apple is one of the biggest companies in the world and one of the most valuable, which allows Apple to play hardball when it comes to China.

But the government of President Hadi, which once enjoyed a reputation for unity and stability, appears divided between its supporters, who are fighting in the south, and its enemies, who are fighting in the east. - - -The growing rift underlines the precarious situation in the country, which has witnessed an array of rival factions in Yemen for more than 20 years. - -Get The Times of Israel's Daily Edition by email and never miss our top stories Free Sign Up - -"The political division is very big; I'm sure you can imagine," said a Yemeni observer in Sanaa, who has close ties to Hadi but is currently based in neighboring Oman. - -'We're not fighting each other' - -For now, the Saudi-led coalition, which comprises Arab states, is fighting alongside Sunni tribesmen, including the former president Ali Abdullah Saleh, to retake Sanaa, the capital of Yemen, from militants loyal to the former president. - -The Yemenis are not fighting with each other. At the top, there's Ali Abdullah Saleh, we're not killing each other, there's no difference - -"The Yemeni people have never supported any one party over the other," Hadi's chief advisor, Abdulrazzaq al Zaidi, told the local Al Jazeera news channel. "We are fighting the Houthis, and there's no war taking place between Yemenis and Saudis." - -Zaidi said the coalition was determined to defeat the Houthis. - - -"The Yemeni people are the most affected by the Yemen-Saudi confrontation," he said. "The Yemenis are not fighting with each other. At the top, there's Ali Abdullah Saleh, we're not killing each other, there's no difference." - -It is unclear exactly how many casualties have been inflicted on Saudi Arabia's coalition, who have been supported by the international community. But there are growing fears over the Saudi-led coalition's ability to deliver on its promise to stamp out the Houthis, who have taken control of much of the north and east of Yemen, and have threatened to move on the capital. - -Saudi Arabia and its allies have so far been unable to recapture Sanaa, a prize they lost to forces loyal to Hadi's government in early 2015. - -While the battle for Sanaa has claimed hundreds of lives, Hadi has not had an easy hand in negotiating a cessation of hostilities and peace terms. - - -"Houthis are the new enemy in Aden, and it's a battle between two different people's armies, but the Houthis have made a peace deal with Hadi," said Abdulla Farag, a retired Yemeni official. "Hadi has the advantage in Aden because people understand that the Houthis and Saleh have no interest in the city," he said. - -But Houthi-held Yemeni ports and airports are now largely closed. - - -The coalition's recent military campaign in Marib, a strategically important port city on the Red Sea, has been met with a series of bombings targeting Houthi fighters. - -'Houthis would prefer to see Yemen break apart' - -"After Marib, the coalition is on the edge of becoming engaged in the war," said a Yemeni government official. - -In Hadramawt province, where most of the fighting has been raging, Hadi is pushing for reconciliation with the northern tribes. - -Meanwhile, forces loyal to Saleh have taken several fronts in the south. - - -A Saudi-led coalition was supposed to have entered Taiz and its adjacent province of Hadramawt from Oman in late May, but after fierce fighting, the effort remains stuck. Houthi forces have also made gains in the southern cities of Marib, al Hudaydah and Aden – all of which fell to Hadi's loyalists in late 2015. "Houthis would prefer to see Yemen break apart," said a Yemeni government source who spoke on condition of anonymity. - -Saleh is a stubborn politician with a well-documented history of warring against the Yemeni government.

But while that may sound ominous, there isn't anything necessarily scary about falling short of full employment. - -A measure like this, called U-6 -- which counts unemployed adults who are unemployed and who have given up and not looked for jobs in the last four weeks, but still want work -- has been a reliable measure of labor-market slack for years. - -And its latest, revised version, still shows an unemployment rate of 4.9 percent, not the 4.5 percent it first reported Friday and not the 4.9 percent we are hoping for. - -"There is no obvious cause for concern," Mr. Summers said. - -If anything, the new data suggested that the underlying trend in labor-market slack has slowed. The percentage of adults between 20 and 54 who don't have full-time or equivalent jobs reached its highest level since 1999 shortly after the recession, but is now back to levels from before 2007 even though the population overall is also growing. - -And that means the trend is starting to reverse. In 2000, more than three out of four working-age adults were employed full time, with nearly all working at minimum wage. But in 2010 -- four years after the start of the Great Recession -- just over three-quarters of working-age adults were employed full time. - -The job market is "still in need of reform," Mr. Summers said, but in a way that is more inclusive than other recent efforts to boost the job market. The Obama administration's new rules for overtime pay, for example, offer fewer and lower-paying jobs than many expected, while giving larger and higher-paying ones a much larger head start. - -But the broader problem of low productivity growth has kept workers from getting more money they need to cover their costs. Even though the unemployment rate would seem to argue for higher productivity growth -- which we think would help create a stronger labor market -- there are many other reasons to doubt there will be more job growth over the coming year.<|endoftext|>LONDON: In February 2012, British photographer Pauline Wright was in a hospital in India on a medical leave to care for her mother.The British photographer was just returning home from the hospital when she came across a woman in pain lying on the road.Wright decided to take a closer look.While trying to take a good picture, Wright's hand was suddenly gripped by a woman at an astonishing 45 degrees.The force and impact hurled the photographer about 15 feet. She ended up lying on the road with her leg broken.The incident left Wright shaken and traumatized. For years, Wright kept her experience a secret, fearing it had marked her as a 'bio-warrior'. But as she started working more seriously on her documentary film about the effects of stress on the body and mind, she said her life had dramatically changed."The first day I was out there, I came across an old woman who had lost a leg – that's when I felt I had a role to play," Wright told AFP at the British film industry's annual awards ceremony in London and a film festival. "There is no going back when a limb is involved."While the incident is widely known in Britain and Wright's story is featured in the movie, Wright refused to publish photographs of the encounter in her memoir."It's probably one of the few photos I have not been too brave to let go of," she said about her photograph taken in the street.The photos of Wright and the older woman in the street went viral online and gained her an international following. A number of publications in Britain made the image the cover for their books, which helped create international awareness about the issue of women's health.Wright had become the world's most famous woman photographer after taking over as the official photographer of the 2012 London Olympics and then the 2013 World Athletics Championships."It's hard to put a value on what it's done for me," she said. "I have changed from a man into a woman with that moment in the street."Wright also says she is more focused on her work. She has never used body doubles or fake injuries. She has even stopped wearing high heels or tight clothes to take pictures of athletes."I've realized the biggest challenge is working without a camera in front of me because I feel I am too close to it," she said.<|endoftext|>Tiny Tiny Log - -About This Game - -Features - -A new, easy to learn control system - -A new mechanic: collecting gems - -A new world map with a random event - -A new story with new characters - -A new boss battle with a new enemy - -New items - -A New World - -There's much to explore in this new world.

There are those who come to terms with their positions in the program, but they are few and far between. - -There is the coach herself, Carla Gee. She will be the face of the new building once the final work is done. The first woman to ever coach in the NCAA Tournament, Gee was brought in to help the program prepare for what had been considered a long-shot at keeping the program moving forward at its home. - -As a former assistant coach for the University of Washington and the San Francisco Dons, Gee was asked to help lead the program with the arrival of Gee Field House. She will be assisted by Chris Klenovsky, who had a successful tenure as head coach at Portland State in the mid 2000s. He is also a native of Portland and would likely have the most of a connection with the fans. - -There is also the state's best-known sports agent, Jay Kornegay, whose client list includes Kelly Olynyk, the woman who became the fourth overall pick in the 2015 Women's NBA Draft. Kornegay is another player who will be a part of the new team and who will be closely tied to Gee as both are represented by Kornegay. - -However, as important as these people and more to the success of the team are, they are merely a part of it. They are the foundation upon which the team is built. - -"They're all so important," said Gee, "but they are so individual. They're not pieces of the puzzle that make the whole. It is us as players that have to get together. It is us as a group, our community, as our boosters, as people who all want to be part of the journey." - -To ensure all of this will happen quickly, Gee has already begun a task force of more than 20 people to help get ready for the changes. This task force has already put in place the infrastructure for the new building. While it may have a few months to wait for completion, it does not need to wait. - -"This isn't a small project," she said. "We can move in quickly. That's why I'm calling this a transition task force. It's all about getting together and getting things together. We're going through that in the next few weeks." - -Gee has a clear vision for what the building should look like. She is well aware of how it will affect the fan base. The new arena will include four 40-foot wide luxury suites, one of which will be dedicated solely to Gee. It will feature a private bar, a lounge, and a large room to host a variety of events. If you haven't been to the new arena with Gee, you will notice that she has the luxury of having the players' lounge and the coaches' locker room available to her on game nights. She doesn't want those things to be shared. - -"I think the best suites are only as good as the people who live there," she said. "They do the best they can, and we're going to do the best we can to match this with the area that we'll have to work with. I'm hoping to have the luxury to be able to spend my entire summer there. If I think I can do it, I'm going to do it. - -"As far as the new building, it needs to be something that stands the test of time. It needs to be something people are proud of and that we can really put our stamp on it and tell the world what we have accomplished here. When you build something, people want to be a part of it." - -It is clear from Gee's tone that the new center must be a place where all students, alumni and fans can walk through the front door and see what her team has accomplished. - -"We always talk about community, about the support they have," she said. "What people want to do is be a part of the process, and that is what I am trying to create in my mind for the community. I'm trying to build a support network now for this community of students. I think this new building will help the students of Oregon State really take off and do as well as possible on the court." - -There will be many people who live or work in Bend who have no idea what the Oregon State women's basketball team has accomplished in the last two years. Gee intends to change that -======================================== SAMPLE 57 ======================================== -The Washington Wizards have a very deep and talented bench. But John Wall and Bradley Beal have had a very, very difficult time getting enough shots going. - -It's a topic worth discussing. But it's a topic that should not be the main focus for the game against the Golden State Warriors on Monday night. - -The Wizards' bench has struggled to get any production the past two games. Wall is averaging 13.3 points and shooting 42 percent after totaling 33 points, 10 assists and only five turnovers in six of his previous five games. Beal is averaging 10.9 points and shooting 28.0 percent on 3-pointers after totaling 18 points, seven assists and two steals in his previous eight games. - -It's a huge drop-off for the second year guard after he averaged 19.8 points and 43.3 percent from 3-point range in his first season with the Wizards. Wall and Beal were supposed to get out of their slump. - -But that's not the issue, at least not right now. - -Wall doesn't need to be shooting better in order to help his teams win. He is playing like he is back to full health and ready to go on Monday. Beal and the Wizards need to get more involved around him so the defense is a little more cohesive on defense. - -Wall has done a pretty good job managing his team as far as offense goes, but the bench has been unable to pick up the slack. - -The Wizards have had a handful of players score in double digits, but they have struggled to do so consistently. - -Marcin Gortat had 16 points and 15 rebounds Saturday night against the Charlotte Hornets. - -Marcin Gortat has had 12 points in 22.5 minutes over the last two games. (AP Photo/John Sommers II) More - -John Wall had 10 assists and 15 points in 22.5 minutes Friday night against the Sacramento Kings. - -Otto Porter had 12 points and five assists Friday night against the Sacramento Kings. - -Bradley Beal had nine points and four assists Friday night against the Sacramento Kings. - -It's not just one or two issues, there's a whole lot of issues playing so few minutes a game or getting fewer shots when they are called up. - -But the Wizards need to try to find a way to win without Wall. He played a career-high 46 minutes and finished with 14 points and 10 assists in a win over the Denver Nuggets last Sunday, but he and the team didn't score until late in the second quarter and the Wizards fell behind by 13 points in the quarter. - -John Wall has played 36 minutes in each of Washington's past three games and hasn't scored in double figures. (AP Photo/Phelan M. Ebenhack) More - -Wall was averaging 23.3 points and 9.9 assists before Monday's game. - -There has been a lot of talk about how the Wizards are relying on Wall more in order to get to the playoffs for just the second time since 2007 and the first time since 2004-05. The issue is, he is not playing as hard and with as much intensity as he has the past two games. - -When Wall wasn't on the court, the point guards and big men did a much better job of defending the Warriors. The bench has had several issues throughout this series. - -The Wizards need Wall to be active and contribute so they can win. It sounds like Wall does that in spurts sometimes, but the lineup doesn't seem to have a plan for it. It's not a bad approach. But the Wizards are making the wrong moves.<|endoftext|>The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995 - -This page is currently being rewritten as part of the Oblivion NPC Redesign Project. - -The page is being rewritten and checked in several stages.

Since my departure, the state of the country seemed as if it were doomed to collapse. The Republican Party ran a president who, after being elected to office, repeatedly demonstrated his personal disinterest with the duties that come with being president. America had a President who repeatedly refused to recognize the legitimacy of the 2016 election and the resulting popular vote; he refused to release his tax returns; he refused to defend the U.S. Constitution as the Constitution originally meant or the First Amendment as the Bill of Rights used to apply; he refused to publicly address the racial divide in this country; and he refused to recognize the importance of religious freedom. All while the Republican Party and the country as a whole appeared to be divided along ethno-cultural lines, the most obvious examples being those visible on a daily basis at various football games. The nation was also consumed by a massive financial crisis, which left many Americans searching for answers as to how they could move forward; many, of course, were able to find answers. For me, these answers took me to China, to China on the other side of the planet. But I can't say the same for the Chinese government. - - -As the United States celebrates its bicentennial, a country that I once called home, and as the country prepares for this year's presidential election, one would think that Americans would be reflecting on how to move on. The fact of the matter is, they've moved on before. They've moved over and over again. - -When I was 14, while living in the U.S., I decided to move to Japan with my mother, brother, and father. After living with my mother every night, one week at a time, I got used to being there at 9 p.m. I didn't miss anything — certainly not the country — it was just a new place to live every week. What I didn't miss was a time before America, or a time before America had become America. I didn't miss the same, predictable American reality or cultural norms. - -I didn't miss that, back then, America wasn't a country for foreigners, and that the culture was different, with a different history, and that its current leaders were largely responsible for this difference. - -And yet — as the country we call America prepares to elect a woman as its first female president, and in 2016 as many as 25 of our largest cities saw a record population increase in the African-American community – not least of which is a welcome development – it is important to recognize that the nation's culture is now one that embraces many foreign perspectives. I had only learned about America from television, from watching movies and seeing shows about celebrities and politicians. It wasn't until I traveled to China that I experienced America firsthand. And after watching the shows about celebrities and politicians I returned to America expecting the same. The reality is quite different. - -I spent a year in Shanghai, learning about Chinese life, the political institutions, and the history of the country. I traveled to the Gobi Desert, one of the world's largest deserts, and learned about the extreme climate and the challenges in managing one hundred million people and a country built upon sand dunes. I traveled deep into the mountains, with the view that China may, for a time, be inching towards an oil shortage, and felt the pressure and the pressure of environmental preservation. And the experiences and ideas with which I was immersed did little to change my opinion on our current president. - -I can say one thing for certain about President Trump from that time, though. What we are witnessing now is that what was once "normal" has become "unusual." In the past, President Trump was simply an ordinary politician who ran as an underdog and who was not well known. The fact that he still has a base of support in his party makes it less improbable that he could, at some point, win the presidency – it's actually not unlikely that he will someday. - -Trump may never win the presidency, not until he proves to be a true president who can actually help people in this country — but the fact -======================================== SAMPLE 59 ======================================== -For all the hype and excitement and the endless debates in the media we seem to have lost sight of the real issues facing our communities.

It didn't quite sink in until this morning when I was going to bed and the thought popped into my head. What the hell am I doing? I've had to write this on every single Wednesday, now I'm posting it every week. - -Last week I went to a party I didn't go to, called a girl I barely talked to and slept with my best friend. That wasn't enough fun, so I started over on Wednesday. That still wasn't enough fun, so I went to a party on the third and last Wednesday. That was more fun, and I ended up with someone I can't believe we made it through that. - -The idea of all this was so incredibly exciting, and I knew it wouldn't stop the day after or the week after. I was also pretty tired and sleepy so I tried to stay up pretty late. That was a mistake too, so I slept in. Now, I've only been out three times since I started last year, but I've also only gone out in the mornings, so I figured there must be something wrong with me. Well I was wrong about me, even though I went to parties. I think that was how I found love. - -I didn't want to sleep on Wednesday after all the fun so I decided that I'd make another night of it. That proved to be a mistake too, it was still early and the sun was coming up, but I didn't realize it until the sun was up like, hours ago. So I went to the bathroom and looked up how long it takes to find love. I was pretty shocked when I saw it was about an hour a day, so I didn't take it seriously. I just went back to sleep. - -The next day I went to a party, got wasted at the bar, and got up drunk again (I'm starting to learn this is harder than I thought). When I came home I got even worse and ended up sleeping with some dude on the porch, which was even worse because that was the best party I ever went to! - -That was pretty much it for the next few days. There was the one night when I stayed up until 4 AM to try and win another girl. And there was the night I got drunk for the first time and had sex with one of my best friends. When I was done there was no way I could ever want to go back to anything more than that. I never want to leave. - -And why is that? Well, I guess for now I've got my own issues, but eventually I'll get past them. So when I'm a grownup, I'm not going to be looking for romance on a daily basis. It's weird because I kind of feel like I need to because I need to feel alive. I know that sounds selfishly selfish, but I have to have other people in my life. I need to know I'm not losing them. And what if I don't find them? I lose them. I'll lose you. - -What kind of world is this and how am I going to deal with it?<|endoftext|>This is a quick and simple guide to getting a Linux system up and running, but it's going to be a pretty big guide.

Pakistan is the only Muslim-majority country not to sign the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and a number of other human rights treaties that bar extrajudicial killing. - -The draft statement, obtained by The Intercept, is signed by all members of the 47-nation Human Rights Council except China, which is the special representative of the UN to Pakistan, and Cuba, which withdrew its signature on the text. India, which initially said it would sign the statement, dropped its signature after it was revealed that Pakistan sent a letter to India's foreign ministry warning of consequences if India did not sign the document. Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs also threatened to bring an international human rights complaint against India if it didn't sign. Pakistan has already been under UN pressure to put an end to the extrajudicial killings and executions of suspected militants or security personnel by the country's intelligence agencies. - -But the timing of the international coalition's response is curious. Earlier this month, a Pakistani court sentenced to death a former Pakistani Taliban commander for his parts in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, and last week, Pakistan executed three people convicted of terrorism-related crimes. The Pakistan government has come under fire for its treatment of religious minorities in the country. During 2014, Pakistan executed 25 Shi'ites and other groups that included Hindus including Dalits. In February and March, more than 1,200 people were killed by a Pakistani Taliban splinter group called Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan. In June, Pakistan hanged 18 men for the 2005 serial bombings in Mumbai — the biggest anti-terrorism act in the country's history at the time, causing more than 160,000 deaths in India over 12 days. - -The "consensus statement" was drafted by the UN Special Rapporteur for human rights in Pakistan, David Kaye, who had been investigating the killings and executions. In addition to the UN, the statement was also supported by the European Council for Fatwa and Research, the Council of Europe (which includes some Muslim countries), and the Council of Muslim Organizations in Europe. The United States, Pakistan's ally and a leading donor, did not sign the statement, and the United Kingdom took no part in the debate. But, according to the New York Times, several of the countries that signed the statement are U.S. allies. - -"This is a historic development in the struggle to protect minority rights in Pakistan.

The Romans could no longer carry out the task of protecting the peoples who lived across their borders, and their empire was increasingly being threatened by barbarian invasions. - - -This new approach sees Rome's fall in terms of four stages: - - -First, Rome as a military power collapsed under internal instability. By the time of the emperor Nero, the Roman army was being disbanded as legions were being lost to the barbarian invasions. - - -Second, internal crisis in Rome's society undermined Rome's political leaders and weakened Rome's army. The emperors Nero, Caligula, and Vitellius were no longer trusted by the people, and soon, all three were removed from office. - - -Third, once internal anarchy spread to the empire's politics, the military leaders that came afterwards were unable to protect Rome against the barbarian invasions of the East. - - -Fourth, the fall of Rome as a military power was a sign that the Roman city itself was failing as it was not built to be capable of controlling large populations. The decline of Rome as a military power meant that by the time of the death of Augustus, the Roman Empire was no longer able to control its vast borders. - - -For this reason, the study of the fall of Rome has become the subject of a variety of theories. The author examines two key theories. - - -The first is the Classical theory (known as the 'conquest' theory), which sees the collapse of the empire in its last days as a consequence of a civil war between Rome's two 'brides'. - - -Contemporary commentators have often confused this theory in their scholarship. The second theory is the 'persecuting' theory, which sees the decline of Rome as the work of the Roman Senate, which had become more autocratic than ever under the fall of Emperor Tiberius. - - -The author shows that both 'conquest' and 'persecuting' theories can be useful if one accepts that the empire's fall occurred because of two competing political processes within the empire. - - -The book concludes by analysing the effects these two processes had on Rome. The author argues that the rise of the Senate under Nero was an essential ingredient to Rome's recovery.<|endoftext|>ROBERT WOLFE'S new book tells the story of an extraordinary journey to find God and why the Christian faith has survived, he says. - -By Robert Wolff - - -The Book of Mormon (Book of Mormon Foundation/AP) - -What did Robert Wolff do to survive? - -A devout atheist and writer of popular science books, he started his own magazine, The Scientific Atheist, and in 1997 published A Brief History of Time. This best-seller argued that the Earth is not only old and did not originate from a singular point in time but is actually the result of innumerable past collisions between atoms and space-time. This was seen as a bold statement, provoking fierce debate. It earned a rebuke from the Christian scientific community, which did not consider atheists' claims in any sense "theistic," but rather "agnostic," and in some quarters even more controversial. - -To this day Wolff says the debate he provoked has not subsided. "The world has changed more in the last 10 years than in the previous 500," he says. "We now have a generation whose whole notion of the world being created by God has just exploded in their face," Wolff says. - -There are now millions of people who have not only rejected the Christian faith but also "have very strong feelings of skepticism on many other points of science," he says. "Even as recently as 20 years ago, if someone brought up a scientific issue, they were supposed to say, 'Well, it's not settled.' But today it's absolutely clear, the evidence is conclusive." - -Wolff points to Darwin: The Origin of Species, now in its third printing, with an introduction to explain the controversy surrounding Darwin's theory, as among the most influential science books of the 20th century. Published in 1871, it has sold 250,000 copies, Wolff says. "It was a book that had to be defended as if it mattered." - -A Brief History of Time (Robert Wolff and Robert A. Freitas Jr., 2007) - -Wolff recently published What is God? (Random House, 2014). He argues that Christianity's survival is due less to intellectual prowess than a cultural phenomenon. "It's not due to some secret knowledge or something God knew. It's because Christianity is part of a very powerful and successful and broad coalition in the world right now," Wolff says. "It was about being good, being moral, being ethical. -======================================== SAMPLE 62 ======================================== -"Do you know of a place of refuge?" - -"Yes sir, but they're not friendly." - -"Where is that?" - -The man's eyes twinkled with a knowing glint as he began a story.

It woke me, but I didn't see anything. It blew all night. It kept waking me, and I remember hearing that terrible, frightening sound." - -I nodded. Then, looking to a corner of the roof, I thought for a moment. "That's it…" - -And so you see. I've come to do good. I've come because I've forgotten the man I used to be.

And she's saying something to me and I can't make out what she's saying. - -She doesn't look scared, and she doesn't look frightened at me. So I look at her. She is wearing a black jumpsuit with red flowers on it. Her shirt and pants are white but their pockets are red. Red roses. - -I stop and look at the girl. - -"You're a ghost?" she asks. - -"No," I tell her, as loud as I can. "It's only because you're wearing that jumpsuit." - -"You're a ghost." She says. "You'll never leave this place where you came from. You can't. I'll go with you. And when I make my way back, you won't be able to remember what happened in here." She says. - -It's a lie. Even if she were a ghost, if she is a real girl with real feelings, she would still be haunted by the last twenty-four hours. And I've never been truly in love, so… - -"But I'm a ghost!" - -I turn around again. "I know. I remember this. I'm a ghost…" - -She doesn't notice a thing. - -"But I'll be back." - -I turn into a alley and start to walk as fast as I can. I keep staring at her. - -She's gone. No one can hear me anymore. - -I open a door and walk in the street. I turn around. They're gone. Nothing. - -And I can't move. - -That's the way it is. I can't go anywhere.

The Council also agreed to implement an updated and more transparent process for evaluating the growth and redevelopment impact of any future transit project. - -The final budget includes nearly $800 million allocated for capital projects. This funding includes $600 million for building new transit lines such as the Green Line Extension (GLX) and new bus routes. Funding is also allocated to improve transit for the disabled, make street trees more friendly to people with disabilities, reduce car traffic and improve pedestrian and biking connections. - -Councilmember Steve Hansen's Transit and Green Infrastructure Committee proposed the plan, which will create a new agency called Central City Solutions (CCS). CCS will be responsible for all capital projects approved by the Council and will have the flexibility to design and create new transit routes, integrate Green Infrastructure upgrades with existing transit systems, and monitor and adjust those investments to create a balanced transportation network in Sacramento. - -Councilmember Joe Crisafulli said, "This funding is an important step towards modernizing and expanding Sacramento's urban transit system. It also puts the city on track to meet the state's climate protection goals for greenhouse gas reductions by 2035. It is my hope that the council will take other important steps in the future to ensure our community remains a livable, walkable, and vibrant community for people to be proud of." - -CCS Deputy Director of Planning and Development Jonathan Jones said the new plan takes Sacramento's transit system to the next level through innovative technologies of the future. He added, "It's going to require all of us on this council to lead by making the investments we know it takes. By taking a long hard look into every project and making sure it fulfills Council's goal of creating a diverse, walkable, bikeable, transit friendly community, we can achieve what it takes to transform Sacramento's transportation network for the sustainable future of our city and the rest of California." - -Committee members said it was important that the plan also included a framework for integrating the growth and redevelopment needs of future transit projects. Councilmember Michael Atkins said "It's unfortunate that our council members did not include a robust framework for planning new transit projects. I have no doubt that it would bring a great deal to the planning process.

The PFA has since refused to comment on rumours of internal disquiet over his appointment. - -McClaren told a news conference that he had "tried to be as positive as I knew how, but they weren't doing anything else". - -"It's been a very difficult period, for myself and the club," he said.

It has since grown into a broader term used for any child of limited intelligence whose physical and learning abilities remain retarded throughout his life. It has become increasingly important in the past decade to define mental retardation more clearly and to understand how it is defined today. - -The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), which adopted the definition from a consensus statement of several professional committees and organizations (1), now considers individuals with mental retardation to be those who fall below the third standard, the cutoff for persons who are so retarded that they have "subnormal" brain function but "normal" learning abilities and who exhibit no significant disabilities in adaptive behaviors (including social skills), educational achievement, or vocational activities (2). Although the cutoff was first adopted in 1968, AAP has not revised its practice of categorizing children with mental retardation by age (3). - -A major change in AAP policy is the change to a cutoff of 70 IQ points above the mean. The rationale was that the average IQ obtained by children with mental retardation during childhood is about 70, with an average rise to about 80 between the ages of 11 and 13 (4). Thus, the cutoff is intended to allow for a decline to 70 of average mental development from the point of onset of retarded children's intellectual function. - -In recent years, the consensus committee that drafted the definition of mental retardation noted that some members felt that the threshold for this condition was too high (5). The committee concluded that because the definition of mental retardation was originally defined to allow for a decline of average mental function from the point of onset of retarded children's intellectual capability—the point of onset—it was necessary to define the condition from the perspective of early development. The committee concluded that mental retardation was best understood as a syndrome that began with the onset of retarded children's intellectual ability and continued through a period of development that is marked by substantial learning disability and with significant developmental delay until the onset of normal age. - -To facilitate this definition, the committee established a criterion to be applied at the time of the initial diagnosis of severe developmental delayedness (SDDL) rather than at the time of the diagnostic test. In these instances, mental retardation is identified in the presence of an intellectual disability, defined as mental retardation that has been clinically established as being caused by chromosomal disorder, severe learning disability, cerebral palsy, organic brain syndrome, traumatic injury, drug intoxication, mental retardation, or other medical condition (5). The committee also recommended that in cases of severe developmental delay or multiple disabilities, an IQ of at least 70 be maintained throughout development. - -A review of the diagnostic criteria used by the Society for Developmental Disabilities of California defines five subcategories of a severe developmental delay, each with four levels of severity (6). The first subcategory includes children with mild to moderate developmental delay or disability, whose IQs average 70 to 75. The second subcategory includes children with moderate to severe developmental delay or disability, whose IQs average 75 to 80, with an IQ reduction to 70 in the presence of major functional abnormalities. The -======================================== SAMPLE 73 ======================================== -This article is about the character. For the music album, see "The Last Of Our Kind (The Original)" (live album). - -The Last Of Our Kind is an American contemporary folk-rock band formed in Washington D.C. in 1995. The group's music has been described by the critics as "an amalgam of indie pop, soul, soul pop and traditional acoustic folk, and a blend of country, bluegrass, roots, blues and punk." - -Contents show] - -History Edit - -The band formed in 1995 by members who had attended the nearby Berklee College of Music. Their name was inspired by the lyric of an American spiritual and political activist who had a similar name: Leonard Peltier. Peltier was an African American activist who had been arrested for protesting the theft of land from Native Americans. - -Before their debut, a few other bands from the Berklee College of Music had already begun working on a collaboration CD. Among them were a band called "The Changelables" and a band called "Jazz For Kids With Autism", which the band decided to call their own band. The band was originally called "The Last Of Our Kind," with the group itself being called "LOWE". - -After playing a few shows in Washington DC, the main five members of LOWE were invited to play a showcase in New York City on November 15, 1995. The first show at the venue was recorded for YouTube and the DVD of that performance is also available. - -In the years since their debut, they have released two full-length albums under the "The Last Of Our Kind" stage name, both of which are based on the theme of traditional folk songs. For their second album, "An Appointment In Hell", Lows guitarist/vocalist Jeff Loomis replaced Jim DeMarco, the second member of LOWE with whom he had recorded his debut album, "I Hear Your Voice Inside Me (The Original)" (1993). Loomis' guitar style is more melodic and less crunchy than DeMarco's. He also contributed more of an acoustic guitar to the songs on An Appointment in Hell, such as "The Last Of Our Kind (The Original)", "An Appointment in Hell" and "Last Of Our Kind (The Original)". - -Lows also recorded several more live albums. "Last Of Our Kind (Live at the Roxy)" is a compilation album documenting several concerts played in New York, including performances at the Roxy (the opening band for Trombone Shorty who later became the opening band for Trombone Shorty And The Violators, and a couple of Lows songs performed with the Roxy crowd, including "An Appointment In Hell"), and shows in Philadelphia, Boston and Hartford. The other live album which takes place in Washington is "Last Of Our Kind (Live at the Beacon Theatre)", the concert recording from the Beacon Theater in Washington DC. This live album, recorded on March 25, 2008, is the most "realistic" of the three. This song is one of the longest songs of the set and features several acoustic guitar tracks and Loomis' vocals. "Last Of Our Kind (Live at The Blue Note)", recorded at the Blue Note in New York on November 30, 1995, is probably the darkest/moodiest of the three. It was also the only "realistic" performance and was performed without any microphones or mics on the audience. - -In 1997, Lowe changed their stage name to The Last Of Our Kind, partly to match the "tribute bands" created like the The Lost Bay Area String Band (1998), The Last of the Pharoahs (1998), The Last of the Pharoahs (1997) among others, and to reflect the new focus on songs and less on the band members. In the years following this it was announced that a new album of "The Last of Our Kind" songs would be released every three years following the release of last. "A Last Of Our Kind" was released on April 26, 2008 and was the first studio album since the group's debut. - -In 2010, Lowe announced that they were to be releasing a third album, on April 11th, the next day is the 40th anniversary of the American Civil Liberties Union/National Lawyers Guild song which was the inspiration for the title, "An Appointment in Hell". A live album, "Live at the Beacon Theatre", was released in the same week. The album has only been released on CD, in part to capitalize on the anniversary, in part to make the live recordings of the band available to a wider audience. - -In August 2011, The Last of Our Kind had announced an extensive world tour to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their first concert. The series of concerts will include two shows in Japan on October 21st and 22nd, followed by New York on November 12th. This will be their first-ever US tour.

You can visit our website here: Shelter.ch. - -Today I am going to tell you a story that is going to give you an idea of what's to come, but let me begin with something completely different: my experiences as an artist on the CryEngine. - -A while, long ago in the CryEngine days I started getting my own game engine, and I was pretty happy with it. I developed a small 2D platformer called "Pump-Man" that took about 4 days to make, based on a 2D art style similar to some of the best 2D platformers out there (Gigantic; Banjo-Kazooie; The Secret Quest). This was something like 15 years ago. But the engine was just a small one. Then, in 2001 the 3D artist that I was working with (Dennis Heilmann, the man who designed the engine for me) moved from Austria to Australia, in the end to -======================================== SAMPLE 77 ======================================== -A video of a police officer kicking an apparent disabled man on the ground is stirring outrage on Twitter. - -The two videos, both posted by Youtube user "Mitcha" on Thursday, show that the officer, who has been identified as officer Jeremy Dearman, kicks the man while he is lying on the asphalt on a quiet, deserted street. - -In the first video, which was posted on Twitter by activist Shaun King, Dearman is seen standing in an unmarked police vehicle before being approached by a man who is speaking English and saying he lives in San Diego. Another passenger in the car later appears and asks the man if he is deaf. - -The passenger, who King identifies as a young child, asks how the man could have broken his leg. The man replies in broken English. - -Dearman, who is wearing blue shorts and a black t-shirt, then walks up to the man. He is then shown walking away from the passenger before returning to the street. Dearman then kicks the man with one leg while keeping the other in a raised position. - -"Hey, get your damn hands up and walk!" Dearman screams. The video also shows the man with his hands behind his back. "Get your hands up, now," he continues. - -Dearman then picks up the man and throws him to the ground, in some cases kicking him in the head. At one point, the man appears to be kneeling on his knees. He is then rolled over by Dearman again before being left at the end of the block. - -According to King, the man told him he was a former Marine but has never fired a weapon. - -"This is not an accident. This is not a mistake," King says in the video. "This is a man being beaten, kicked and stomped by an officer with no apparent reason." - -He added that he would be filing a police misconduct complaint. - -Dearman was not available to speak on Wednesday. - -This is not the first time that Dearman has come under attack after video surfaced. In 2012, he was accused of threatening a former girlfriend in an email titled "Warning, she will get a gun and shoot me dead" that left dozens of questions unanswered. - -The San Diego County Sheriff's Department has not responded to requests for comment from CNN. On August 17, the department issued a statement that said the department takes all requests for public comment regarding the incident "extremely seriously." - -"Deputy Dearman remains on leave while the Police Department's internal affairs is conducting its investigation into this matter," Sgt. Lisa Bowman said. "If you have any information to share or if you have concerns about this situation, you can help by calling 949-824-5011." - -Another San Diego native, journalist and activist Shaun King tweeted that Dearman had previously been involved in an incident with him in 2012. - -Dearman and I were on a date on September 4th, 2012 while covering Occupy San Diego. He grabbed me by the neck and shoved me, in front of my friends, in a parking lot when I refused his request to move to the curb. #stoptheviolence — Shaun King (@ShaunKing) September 28, 2014 - -The San Diego County Sheriff's Department issued an update last month on the investigation into the death of 32-year-old homeless man Kelly Thomas, who died in December 2010 after being pushed by officers and handcuffed for several hours. The investigation found that Thomas could possibly have died as a result of a lack of air, but that other factors were "considered."<|endoftext|>I got a lot of good pictures, you can clearly tell this is a new game.

The country's economy has become more competitive since the 1970s and has held onto its lead since the Great Recession. The country is now the world's number one destination for international business. - -According to the report, more than 20 percent of U.S. workers lack the necessary skill sets for global competitiveness. And, the U.S. has lagged behind other highly sophisticated countries, which have been moving into the high-skill service industry, while remaining in the technology sector. - -"This report has made a critical contribution to our understanding of the global economy and the drivers behind its emergence," said Klaus Schwab, Chair of the WEF's Executive Committee. "There is much to be concerned about, as a country like the US, where so many individuals work in the service sector, needs to become more competitive. However, this should not be viewed as a challenge in any way." - -However, the report notes that, given the size of the U.S. economy, the gap between our ability to lead the industrial race and our need for talent to meet that demand is becoming wider each year. - -"Given our size, its economy and its diversity, the United States has an important role to play in reshaping the 21st century to better balance the needs of business and society," said Klaus Schwab. "Today, many high-skilled, high-productive jobs are not accessible to those who are not native English speakers or native speakers of another language." - -And in addition to those challenges, it is also necessary to focus U.S. efforts in those key strategic regions where opportunities are limited, such as emerging economies. The report notes that the United States must ensure that it remains competitive, in part, by ensuring that its own economic prosperity does not put unnecessary downward pressure on the international competitiveness of other countries. - -"Global business and business leaders, including President Obama, need to invest more in areas like education and training, innovation, trade and foreign investment, in an effort to build a world-class economy that will sustain America's global leadership," noted Klaus Schwab, - -Read the complete report here.<|endoftext|>A new report out of the National Institutes of Health shows that the majority of the population is affected by a lack of exercise and a lack of exercise is related to a poor outlook on life. The NIH study, which is based on data gathered in the 2005 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey shows that just over 60% of the population lacks enough physical activity each week. Of that group, just over 40% believe having less than 3 hours of exercise a week is sufficient. - -The report also indicated that, when it comes to health, there are several different aspects to fitness, all of which involve varying amounts of exercise for a different number of total hours a week. Of the factors associated with better or worse health, the primary factors were diet and exercise. For example, obesity may be a factor in some cases of coronary artery disease and cardiovascular disease. Additionally, in those ages 20-44, physical activity was correlated with a better outlook on life. Those with a greater amount of daily physical activity had a lower incidence of depressive symptoms, a lower rate of smoking, and lower likelihood of using multiple sources of tobacco, such as cigars and pipes. - -Exercise can also make a difference in terms of life expectancy in this country. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, men in the United States who participate in regular fitness exercise are 30% less likely to die sooner than men who do not engage in such exercise. Men who are active at least two times a week, or 150 minutes of exercise per week, are more likely to live an additional 11 years than their inactive counterparts. Of course, for the average person who is active, it is difficult to determine the exact percentages and the numbers, but it is safe to say that it is time to take steps towards being more active and fit for the 21st century. - -Source: The Washington Post - -Photo Source: Flickr/Penny Tackett - -undefined<|endoftext|>A former "Celebrity Apprentice" contestant who says she was sexually -======================================== SAMPLE 79 ======================================== -In her first full day as mayor, Lorne Bozinoff was greeted by a long line that stretched down a sidewalk in front of the city hall building. - -This comes on the heels of the announcement that Bozinoff has been selected as the new chief in charge of policing. - -Bozinoff, a former RCMP officer, was appointed Winnipeg's first-ever chief of police early last month. Bozinoff, 44, told CBC News he's looking forward to working with city hall, the community and residents across the city going forward. - -He said he has the mandate to implement a strategic plan to ensure Winnipeg stays safe. He noted that the City of Winnipeg's annual Police and Fire Information (PFI) report indicates there were nearly 658 homicides and almost 2,800 non-fatality firearm incidents in 2015. - -"It is not just a crime prevention report, it's about public safety," Bozinoff said. "It's making sure every person is safe living in our city." - -Winnipeg's police department has been at the centre of a recent controversy. - -A report released by the Office of the Independent Police Review Director in late May revealed that officers inappropriately searched two people in 2013, and then "improperly detained" and "abusive" force was used against a third person. - -Bozinoff said he's working on building a police culture that is "professionalized, transparent, accountable," as a result, of the decision. - -Bozinoff noted that the Independent Police Review Director's report was "not the entire picture." - -He said he is also looking at the recommendations in the PFI report. - -"The report suggests, and I share those, this type of information has never been kept confidential in the past," he added. - -In his letter of acceptance on Tuesday, Bozinoff also thanked the city for the honour of the appointment, saying it was one of the greatest things he's done in his professional life. - -The Manitoba Police Association (MPA) and the Professional Association for Public Safety Management (PasMP) were pleased to accept Bozinoff's appointment. The union said they recognize what is a challenging time to be an officer at the Winnipeg Police Service with the recent announcement concerning the hiring of Chief Mark Saunders. - -"We hope that Mr. Bozinoff's efforts will be welcomed by the members," said MPA spokesman Dave Selby. - -He said the membership also hopes to be part of the decisions made in regards to hiring the Chief's replacement. - -PasMP president and CEO Tom Longmire said the decision was made in consultation with members, and that he hoped Bozinoff will "lead on these major issues, and make sure we keep Winnipeg safe for everyone." - -'It's a huge job' - -Bozinoff said he has been spending some time with the MPA and is already engaged in conversations he hopes will help inform the process surrounding the future of the Winnipeg Police Service. - -He told CBC News he also has spoken with Chief Saunders in the past few days. - -"I've had a chance to sit down with Chief Saunders to talk about what to do," Bozinoff said. "It's not something I'm surprised, he and I have talked about the same things we've talked about for years, how do we get back on track with our police force and keep Winnipeg safe." - -Bozinoff is a police officer from Prince Albert, Sask. - -Bozinoff said he doesn't plan on going too far off-track in the search for a Police Services Board of Review that will run for three or four years and look into police disciplinary action. - -"I think it's a big job at a big time, [The Chief is] going to need it as well," said Bozinoff. He added that he understands the frustration with the board being appointed in the first place, after a process that has been riddled with controversy, and now with the appointment of his selection. - -As for the future, Bozinoff emphasized that he does not expect the Winnipeg Police Service to shrink. He said he's going to go on the offensive and not shrink the police division. - -"I'm a policeman, I want the Winnipeg Police Service to stay strong, strong and healthy for the residents in Winnipeg," said Bozinoff.<|endoftext|>Rudolf Vrba, son of the notorious dictator Ferdinand von Habsburg, escaped to Italy in 1943 when the Nazis demanded his extradition, only to be betrayed and executed in the same year. - -"To me, he is a hero who served his God, his family and the country," said Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco, archbishop of Turin, who met the 92-year-old in the Vatican on Saturday to mark the 30th anniversary of Vrba's capture and escape from a Nazi detention camp.

Between 1980 and 2000, the number of law enforcement agencies rose from roughly 300 to almost 3,000, which increased the overall number of crimes reported in the country by more than 800 percent. - -The report found that of all the crimes that occurred in 2002, half took place in just four states: California, Florida, New York and Texas – and, the federal Bureau of Prisons' Bureau of Justice Statistics reported in 2012, those four states held approximately half of all prisoners in the United States. - -Over the last three decades – which saw a sharp increase in the federal prison system from about 30,000 prisoners in 1980 to about 370,000 inmates in 2012 – the ratio of black men to white men in state prisons has increased nearly seven-fold – from 1.5 to six to one over the three decades. - -"From a criminal justice perspective, mass incarceration has contributed to a massive increase in both rates of incarceration and recidivism relative to white men," according to the report.<|endoftext|>The White House has announced the naming of four new ambassadors to the United Nations in the days ahead of the General Assembly's first high-level engagement between the Trump administration and the United Nations (UN). - -Two of the nominees – Ambassador Keith Harper of the UK and Ambassador Daniel Rubinstein of Israel – have served as ambassadors in their countries during the past decade, while Ambassador Anne Patterson – President Trump's pick to serve as United States Permanent Representative to the UN – is the first openly-LGBT ambassador to ever be nominated for such a position. - -"The United Nations and its work are vital to our nation's security and prosperity, as well as its moral compass. As a result, it is absolutely critical that the UN be properly funded and that it be a place where nations are judged on what they achieve, rather than what they inflict," Trump told the United Nations General Assembly at his first address to the world body since becoming president last Friday. - -"We look forward to making America proud and doing everything in our power to help achieve that goal through the support of our friends and allies." - -According to the Office of Government Ethics, all White House nominees must sign a "Statement of Official Residence," which declares that the person seeking the job has, "willfully violated federal, state or local laws in order to obtain or retain employment, or to obtain or retain employment for a spouse." - -The White House has not yet released a copy of the statement outlining the reason for the candidate's employment violation. - -Harper has served as ambassador to the UN in New York. He has also served as permanent representative to the UN for Canada after serving in the office since 2011. In his nomination form, Harper acknowledged that he had made "significant mistakes" related to the handling of personal funds. - -"The UN was supposed to have no business involving private dollars. I have apologized for this error and for causing pain to others," Harper said in the report. - -Harper also told the Senate on Monday that "when I became ambassador to the UN in 2005, it was established that we would never again receive any money from the United Nations unless it was explicitly approved at the highest levels of the government of Canada." - -Harper's confirmation process was delayed for several months so he could undergo a medical exam related to a pre-existing heart condition.

It could also be used for medical care including the assessment of a stroke victim who could die from the illness without prompt treatment. - -The system would be able to track a person's pulse and the rate of his heart rate while that person is still a living thing, which the solicitation says allows DARPA "to measure the health of a wounded warrior before, during, and after an organ transplant." It could also also be used to find out where soldiers are likely to be hit or to track their movements while on active duty. - -The solicitation's description of the system suggests that DARPA is thinking not just about people with disabilities, but also those in the military who are wounded. It describes how current technology can be used to track the health of a soldier who has been wounded or, worse, killed. But the solicitation states: - -When a soldier is wounded and unable to communicate, current technology cannot provide a reliable assessment of the physiological and psychological effects of a traumatic brain injury on the soldier. This is due to the complex interaction between a soldier's cognitive, physical and mental health. Therefore, DARPA is developing a neuroprosthetics system to enable a soldier to communicate without loss of conscious functions and with more clarity and accuracy. The system is capable of recording the soldier's pulse and the rate of his heart. Based on the soldier's behavioral and physiological data, it can use those data to monitor the soldier's brain activity, and thereby predict the soldiers' risk of brain injury or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), if present. - -However, the solicitation doesn't say if the system used on wounded veterans would also provide the kind of data that the system could use for tracking injured civilians. - -The agency has been working on systems like this for more than a decade, according to its 2013 annual report. But in recent years, its efforts to develop tools for detecting cyberthreats and combatting diseases such as depression has taken precedence, DARPA said in a blog post at the end of 2013. The agency said that DARPA has a "growing body of experience" in developing ways to quantify the effects of brain injury in combat veterans. - -Do you think this kind of technology would benefit civilians? Sound off in the comments. - -Image: DARPA<|endoftext|>(Reuters Health) - Most people with type 2 diabetes aren't getting the medication they need because of lack of insurance or a lack of funding to pay for medications, according to a study published Tuesday in the Journal of Diabetes Care. - -The study's authors found that more than half of people in the United States with type 2 diabetes had no private insurance that covers insulin, the synthetic form of a hormone that regulates blood sugar, while 18 percent were living in states without Medicaid funding for treatment. While many people are eligible for coverage in employer-sponsored health plans, the study authors said a lack of access means many more people don't get the care they need for long periods of time. - -"There aren't sufficient programs in place to cover diabetes adequately," said lead author R. Jeffrey Wright, an assistant professor with Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. - -A lack of treatment can cause higher, more frequent blood sugar levels, which can lead to long-term complications such as blindness, hearing loss and kidney problems, all of which are more common in people with diabetes than in the general population. - -The study authors, however, caution that the findings are generalizable to people with type 2 diabetes and should not be used to suggest that people with the disease are not entitled to the same care that people without the disease get. In particular, the study authors said they want to emphasize that the findings need to be followed up with data on diabetes treatment in people with type 2 diabetes, which could change or narrow the study's findings if more people are treated. - -Type 2 diabetes was first recognized in the 1950s as a disease related to obesity and has become more prevalent in the United States in recent decades thanks to high rates of obesity and weight gain among people with type 2 diabetes. In 2007, 31 percent of U.S. adults with type 2 diabetes were obese, according to the U.S. government. - -Insulin is used a standard insulin pump to take insulin in and deliver it to the cells in the body where it must be broken down into its components. The pump requires a prescription, but people can get a discount if they meet certain criteria, such as living at a low income or having a limited number of doctors who prescribe medication regularly. - -The insulin treatment researchers studied was one used to -======================================== SAMPLE 82 ======================================== -The number of people displaced from their homes by Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip has risen to 3,071 with around 300 injured and 50 critically wounded according to information provided to the Al-Mezan Center for Human Rights under the protection of UN Security Council Resolution 2334. - -It was previously reported that 963 Palestinian homes had been destroyed and over 1,000 seriously damaged by Israel's aggression on the Gaza Strip. - -The Al-Mezan Center recently visited areas in Gaza where Israeli attacks are ongoing as an Israeli warplane fired several munitions against residential homes and residential areas on Tuesday 29 –31 October. The first report of injured people being treated at Gaza Hospital (Hospital of the Al-Nasser Hospital) came from the Al-Nasser Hospital when Al-Mezan received information that Israeli planes bombed a number of homes and residential areas in Rafah, Sheikh Radwan, Al-Shujaa and Al-Ras. - -"Such brutal attacks on the civilian population demonstrate that the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip are not only being carried out with the aim of achieving the siege on the coastal region, but also with the aim of ending peaceful demonstrations and defending settlers' illegal activities on Palestinian land," said Hanan Ashrawi, Chairperson of the Palestinian National Initiative. - -"This is a clear violation of the internationally recognized rules and regulations of armed conflict," she emphasized. - -For her part, Hanan Ashrawi spoke of the need for urgent action by the international community to demand the implementation of the United Nations Security Council Resolution 2382 (2009), which calls upon Israel to end its aggression against the Palestinian people. This resolution calls on Israel to stop all its military operations in the occupied Palestinian territory, including the expansion of the settlements and other aggressive operations which are aimed at the expansion and consolidation of Israel's hegemony in occupied Palestinian land and at the annexation of Jerusalem. The resolution also calls upon Israel to stop its aggression against Palestinian civilians. - -During meetings with government officials in Washington, D.C., and Sweden, Hanan Ashrawi stressed that this is an international issue that requires international action. - -"We call on the international community. The United Nations is in a strong position to intervene to stop that aggression in the most fundamental way and is the only forum that has the power to condemn this aggression and demand immediate and full compliance with international humanitarian law and human rights law," she said. - -Al-Mezan emphasizes, however, that the Palestinian leadership and the international community as well as the governments of the countries that finance Israeli warplanes in order to strengthen their political positions and to maintain their financial interests, are totally silent on the blatant violation of international humanitarian law perpetrated by Israel against the civilian population in the Gaza Strip. This is because these countries continue to support Israel's policies of aggression against the Gaza Strip. This in turn puts international humanitarian law, the safety of the civilians, the right to self-determination, the principle of non-intervention and the right of the Palestinian people to their own state, at risk. - -The Al-Mezan Center also reported that as of Wednesday 31 October, the International Committee of the Red Cross had received information from the Gaza Strip of five killed and nine critically injured people since the beginning of the Israeli attacks on Gaza on 17 October. According to the ICRC in Jerusalem, the bodies of two of the five killed were recovered on the 31 October. It is also estimated that over 200 Palestinians have been killed and over 5,100 have sustained injuries since the beginning of the Israeli aggression, including dozens of children.<|endoftext|>1 Clean Ep. 615: The Story of the Diving Helmet On this episode, we take you inside the very first diving helmet, created by the Germans between 1916 and 1917.

It's a complex process, one you aren't quite sure how to tackle, a task that will be difficult to complete. So, don't panic, there are plenty of different ways to make a project, even if it is a very complex and time consuming one. In this article we'll look at the various styles of web design, what they all have to offer and how they can be applied to a project of your very own. - -Aesthetic Style - -Web design begins with a solid foundation, a site that's been designed with the basic principles of the web in mind. From there, it gradually becomes ever more abstract, focusing more and more on the visuals and content that is available, instead of the underlying framework of the design. It might be more obvious this style of design than others, having a design similar to the homepage of an agency or a brand, but many designers can apply this style to almost anything on the web. - -It can work really well with text too, but there are a couple of things that always remain consistent with style such as typographical choices and colours, even if they're not particularly appealing. It's certainly the style that's most likely to attract internet trolls. - -I think I can speak for everyone when I say I love how it makes you think about the way things look and feel, instead of their actual functionality. It's pretty amazing how something as important as design can make that much of a difference. It really does seem that all that matters when it comes to web design is how it looks, rather than what it does in actuality. - -So, with a website designed with aesthetic styles in mind, let's examine what styles have to offer. - -1. Aesthetic Style - -First in our list of styles would be the aesthetic style which has many of the very same strengths as the previous aesthetic style. It will still be a good starting point and is well suited to most projects. - -The aesthetic style also has a good sense of balance. It's not just a big blob of text with no visual cues to help it read. There are usually strong visual cues that can help you understand where you're heading, such as the use of bold, italic and underlining in headlines, the use of color, use of photos and so on. You can also apply many of these style tricks to pages, whether it be the header, footer, content or whatever you happen to be working on, which helps with readability. - -2. Bright and Bold - -Bright and bold are very similar to the aesthetic style in terms of aesthetics and are, very simply put, the style you'll need if you are designing something bright. It is very similar to the aesthetic style in that its primary focus is on design, but it doesn't rely purely on aesthetics to deliver a clear message. Instead, you will likely be using bright and bold for different purposes, such as making information more visual (such as creating headlines and text descriptions) or creating contrast with similar looking information (such as inlining the bold or italic text of the header or image of the sidebar). - -It seems likely that it is more popular amongst freelancers. It is fairly simple and easy to get started with, so if you really enjoy designing websites with bright and bold typography, you should definitely give it a shot. - -3. Emphasizing Text - -Text is very much a crucial element in a lot of modern design. With a large content collection, you are always going to need more than one way to communicate it. A good design that is clear, compelling and effective means the right message needs to be communicated and conveyed in as few characters as possible. Emphasizing text definitely fits this bill. In design theory, it is referred to as a hierarchy of elements, and is defined as the arrangement and combination of the following elements: - -A title. The most important element, it is always first and gives a lot of information. - -Headers. Headers should contain the most important information, such as the title. - -Images. Images can often also be useful, as they have a way of displaying important information without needing extra text. - -Inline, or bold, text. If you want to make emphasis a bit more obvious, you can use bold text around it. - -4. Use Typography to Improve Information Design - -Typography can be defined in many different ways depending on the designer, but it basically refers to the design of typefaces in particular. It will generally involve designing with a particular typeface or using one, especially the sans serif typefaces, in a particular way. - -One of the best ways to use typography has been illustrated by the designers behind Slice, a website that used typefaces to deliver information much better than a lot of web designers used in the past, such as the dreaded Google Search page.

The information can be analyzed in real time to provide the opportunity to learn more about the human genome. - -"This is a real breakthrough for the future of bioinformatics, because it's the ability to analyze the genome with unprecedented speed and accuracy," said James Rothman, an assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science and co-author of the study published in the journal Current Biology. - -The data the chip receives is translated into a form that can be displayed on a screen, allowing patients to monitor their gene activity within minutes. In contrast, it typically takes up to one month for a blood test to get back a complete report of genetic activity, even when a sample is taken within 24 hours of an illness's manifestation. - -Because the sensor is small, it is easy to implant and can be surgically implanted into the body. It also does not require external power for data transmission, thus reducing the need for batteries and power cords, according to the researchers. - -Currently the chip works with human DNA, but can be easily adapted to work with other types of genetic material. That capability would potentially be especially helpful to medical researchers studying the genetics of different diseases. - -Rothman co-authored the paper with Yi Chen, a Rice research associate in the Department of electrical engineering and computer science; Mingming Xu and Yuan Wu, both currently at the University of California, Berkeley; and Xiaolin Yang, a researcher at the University of California, San Francisco. - -In 2011, the National Science Foundation supported the research, which was a collaboration between researchers at Rice; UC Berkeley; UC San Francisco; Columbia University; the University of Pennsylvania, and University of Cambridge - Britain.<|endoftext|>For some time now, I've been searching for a product or service that will enable me to build a custom, high-performance, open architecture in the cloud at scale and for a fraction of the cost of the other options. I've spent many days researching different solutions, but all have come up short. - -Today, I'm sharing a new product that I think is the perfect solution for this particular problem. Built in a month by a small startup out of Australia, with a small team, their technology allows developers to build cloud applications in a way that is both efficient and scalable with the least amount of effort. - -I've been using the technology for the last six weeks. As you'll see from the video above, the application is currently being used at my company, The Humble Bundle to deliver a product line of products. My team is running it at a few hundred apps and games and so far we've been able to deliver high performance and a stable, high scalability infrastructure. Our application runs on three high-end Amazon EC2 instances, each with 40 Core i7 processors and 8TB of RAM. I've never had so much computing power to work with in a single instance before. - -One of the challenges in open architecture is that it's tough to have many instances of the same component in multiple datacenters in two or more countries. In the past, we've used an IBM NSX controller in multiple instances. We've had it for 4 or 5 years, and have grown accustomed to the amount of effort required to manage multiple clusters. We found that we were losing compute time and power in these environments, which was costing us tens of thousands of dollars a month. - -Using an open architecture with three open EC2 instances requires the application to be able to scale out across three datacenters, or a cluster, in less than 10 minutes. If the cluster size is too high, then you have a problem, so scaling out to a single node means that when you have to make the switch to this new cluster (for example, because of a failover), you are stuck for six hours, which is also bad. - -The solution I ended up settling on is similar to OpenStack and it works really well and is a huge relief from having to constantly monitor and manage several nodes running several instances. - -Here's the product from the Australian company. - -https://blog.aussieopenstack.com.au/how-build-your-cloud-app-on-a-truck - -There's much more about the technology in the video than I'm allowed to discuss at the moment. It's a very compelling product, and I highly recommend you watch it: - -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_fW-1d1_w8 - -If they ever launch it commercially, the cost would be incredibly small for developers (or anyone planning on building a cloud application).<|endoftext|>A man was arrested Friday on suspicion of setting fire to at least five cars -======================================== SAMPLE 85 ======================================== -"The problem is that we now live in a country where a majority thinks that the government can do whatever they want.

Jeter has not yet accepted but is expected to do so shortly. - -The Yankees have not officially announced the selection of Jeter for the team but have confirmed that he has had a series of conversations with team officials. - -"We've had some very preliminary talks with Derek," A.J. Burnett said today. "It would be great if we got some of those done today -- probably before we head out to camp. We'll see what happens. Obviously, he would be an exceptional coach and he would fit perfectly with a team like we have here." - -Burnett said he spoke with John Farrell earlier today and discussed the possibility of being the manager of Jeter's team. Farrell is now considered a front-runner to be the manager of the American team. - -The American team, which will be announced in May, will participate in the WBC in March. - -Burnett said the only current Yankees coaches with experience coaching the National team are the current bench coach Joe Girardi and the manager Joe Girardi. - -"I think the question is whether Derek will actually accept [being the manager]," Burnett said. - -Jeter told Burnett over the phones that he likes the idea of coaching. - -On Friday, Burnett was in New York to attend Jeter's annual game with the New York Yankees against the Red Sox.

We have no preference," Nicholson told reporters yesterday in London. - -The move comes after the Taliban have gained ground in several provinces across the country in recent weeks, having previously been unable to challenge the Afghan armed forces in significant areas. - -According to a BBC report, the Taliban has now captured more ground in the northern province of Kunduz and has gained ground in the south, especially in Helmand province. - -Speaking at the Nato Summit in Brussels, Nicholson said: "As we move from the drawdown of US forces into a position where we are looking at the possibility of an increase of troops that the president has said we could do, we are talking about the ability to go into a location to support Afghan security forces – but how much more can we do and how much more are going to be possible is something that we have to think about." - -According to the report, the US and the British are weighing the possibility of sending in a total of approximately 3,000 or 4,000 troops to Afghanistan. At present, the US-led forces control around 13,000 troops in Afghanistan. - -The general went on to say that while such a troop increase is being discussed, "the president has not committed to any particular number of additional troops". - -However, the presence of even a smaller number of troops is seen by some in the US as the next logical step in Washington's planned draw down. - -It was reported in November that the White House's plans for an additional 3,000 US troops for Afghanistan would see "around 400" of those troops be sent into Helmand, which is a key battleground in the country's civil war. - -In a speech on Sunday, President Donald Trump outlined plans to add another 10,000 troops to the US forces in Afghanistan. - -Trump said the US would not "wait" but would "fight to win" in Afghanistan.

In fact, as long as the nation existed, it was more likely that blacks would be enslaved in the North than in the South. - -What kind of place was the American West? - -The Western frontier was a frontier of sorts for the United States, and it differed from every other place in its geography, climate, resources, and the social conditions to which it held its inhabitants. - -The American Frontier - -In the late 18th Century, most people could not have imagined that a population of Europeans would one day live beyond the boundaries of New England.

The wall has stood for thousands of years, and some parts have eroded completely away. - -The wall was built by workers who had to dig through mud and rocks. Some walls in the area still contain traces of the construction, including the rock wall in front of the Nanhu Palace, which can be seen today. - -To make the wall, workers dug through a mountain of mud at high temperatures and pressure, creating a layer of volcanic rock on top of the mud, which made for a tough and very slippery rock surface. Then, workers brought in heavy machinery and put a lid over the whole construction to keep sand and mud out of the construction site. - -In total, 1.22 km-high wall was built, and its walls stand at over 10 meters high. The Nanhu Wall has been standing since the Han Dynasty (206BC-AD220) and was used for many centuries, but no one knows the exact dates of when it was built first. - -Experts had thought that the wall must have been built by workers on site for millennia, since the wall is still there today. The wall is not as impressive as the Great Wall of China, which is a nearly 2.8 km (1.8 miles - 1/4 mile) high structure constructed using limestone. - -The Great Wall of China has stood for more than four thousand years and now has an incredible population of over 700,000. The Nanhu Wall is less impressive when it comes to its height, since it stands around two kilometers. However, it offers tourists a spectacular view for a few hours and is probably still better as an attraction than the Great Wall.<|endoftext|>The city has a unique reputation as one of the most racially diverse cities in the nation, ranking No. 3 overall for white population, No. 3 for Asian residents, No. 4 for Hispanic residents and No. 1 for black residents.

She was referring to calls from officers who she and her children have had with residents. - -Walker was one of the protesters during the "Day Without a Woman" protests that started Tuesday, in which about 250 women called for an end to discrimination against women in the workplace and in the family court system. - -"We know that there are a lot of black kids that are getting bullied because they're black, and they have to go to schools where they're getting harassed by some kids who look like them," Walker said. - -The protests came a day after a police officer shot a dog in East Baltimore, killing it. Officers who responded to the incident said the dog had jumped on the car of Officer William Porter, 32, who was inside trying to help the man in the car. - -A spokeswoman for the police department said the circumstances of the shooting were under investigation by the state attorney's office. - -The department also is investigating reports that police in West Baltimore arrested the wrong man at least four times in the past two weeks, according to news accounts. Police records show officers made arrests in seven of those cases on Monday, according to news reports. Three of the arrests were in the 8th District, between North and Pennsylvania avenues. - -City residents say the department has not improved its response to violence in the city, particularly the killings of black men by police officers over the past two years and a rising pace of shootings and robberies. They also complain that the department is not doing enough to stop violence in neighborhoods where they live. - -"It's been an ongoing and worsening problem," said Walker, whose family moved from Alabama into an apartment complex in East Baltimore two years ago. - -Walker said she has been called by officers a number of times in recent months or weeks, but the calls have become more frequent after the killing of Terrell "Woody" Johnson. -======================================== SAMPLE 89 ======================================== -Lets say that there are 2 people in a relationship.

He also called for more local democracy, including direct elections for local councillors, and more direct democratic involvement in policy-making. - -McDonnell's remarks come in the wake of the publication of a report on the government's austerity programme by Martin Lewis, the chief executive of the Resolution Foundation. It revealed that spending cuts have hit public services and the poor the hardest, and will increase poverty by £12bn over three years. - -McDonnell, the MP for Hayes and Harlington, who resigned in July 2011 as an adviser to Ed Miliband, who he supported in the leadership race of the party, has now become one of the strongest voices on the opposition side of Parliament. The Labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, is not expected to take any further part in the shadow cabinet when Corbyn attends the conference later this week. - -In his speech last night, McDonnell, who was elected to the shadow cabinet last year and is due to replace the shadow health secretary, Heidi Alexander, as shadow work and pensions secretary when the shadow cabinet reorganises next month, said the Labour party was "not a monolithic block" of supporters and he had a "long way to go" to reach out to people who had been disillusioned by the 2010 election. - -He said: "Labour is not just a Labour party. It is a broad church. Many of those that voted for us in 2010 are disappointed and alienated. They feel left behind, like they've been forgotten and have been sidelined by the leadership and the right wing of the party. "Our challenge is to reach out to people and let them know what Labour has to offer." In a sign of a potential softening of the party's approach, McDonnell said he would back increasing the minimum wage from £6.50 to £7.50 by 2020 and pledged to scrap tuition fees at universities. He also called for councils to be given greater power to take control of local services. - -Facebook Twitter Pinterest John McDonnell to join Labour conference: 'I am a socialist politician.' - -Speaking after McDonnell's speech, former minister Barbara Keeley said: "The shadow chancellor is a brilliant person who, if he's elected, will be a brilliant shadow chancellor. He has the potential to be a good leader of the party. - -"What he needs to do is learn from the mistakes he made 10 years ago when he was in shadow chancellor, which is to go back to basics and bring back the roots of what Labour represents: social justice, tackling poverty and inequality." - -McDonnell said the Labour party needed to return to its roots, and that people had voted for the party under Ed Miliband in part because they wanted to see welfare cut, tax rises limited to the wealthiest, and an end to austerity. - -"In that sense, the Tories' cuts and austerity are a massive disappointment to the British public, who wanted a better politics. This government and its friends are in denial about what has happened. It is in denial about the damage it has caused to people's lives," says John McDonnell. "I feel for my friend and colleague [the Scottish first minister] Alex Salmond. He campaigned for an independence referendum and he hasn't got a referendum because of the Tory budget." McDonnell said that the Conservatives and "the establishment media" were in denial about what they had done to the British people. - -"The government can deny the damage it has done by playing games while it says to its people: 'Trust us'," he said. "I am in denial about what the Tory government has done to the British people. That's the reason I joined the Labour party." - -He said that people were now disillusioned, and said this could "turn into an electoral crisis in next year's general election as people lose faith in a politics that offers anything substantial". - - -I can't see what Labour can do while it is in this deep denial. John McDonnell - -"People are losing faith in politics because they don't believe that anything is being done to help them. People look at the world and they see austerity as the only option. This government is in denial. The party is in denial." - -He said austerity was not just an economic issue but also a "cultural and moral" one. - -Labour could regain the trust of the public only if the party abandoned the approach adopted by the coalition, McDonnell said, and stopped playing a "politics of fear" by promising to make cuts of up to 18% in public -======================================== SAMPLE 92 ======================================== -In a new video, the founder of the #DefendRisingSun movement explains why he is taking matters into his own hands. (Published March 29, 2017) - -The #DefendRisingSun group says it's only making its first phone call to Washington, D.C. this week, with the mission of raising the flag of the United States on the South Carolina Statehouse after the racially-charged shooting of nine parishioners at a historic black church in Charleston, South Carolina. - -It's unclear who founded #DefendRisingSun, but it appears to have been started in the early afternoon Wednesday by a man claiming to be a former U.S. Marine and the owner of a small business. - -The video is a 30-minute, mostly-audience statement that's punctuated with moments of music and action, and begins with a short disclaimer: "I'm not a real activist. I have a job." - - -But it's not that the man behind the microphone isn't an activist. As a military veteran, who served two tours in Afghanistan, that fact is clear. He says the shooting on Wednesday left him "hurt" and "very angry." - -"I got a lot of anger in me, because this nation is still healing," he says in the video. - -"The shooting that was just today at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church -- the man's an American hero. He did right by his race. He took bullets for his race, and his gender," he continued. "But in the name of God, I'm going to shoot back and I'm going to send it to where it comes from." - -Dylann Roof is said to have taken down the Confederate battle flag in front of the historic church. Police say he killed nine people inside the church. - -What the video does not mention is that Roof had no affiliation, and no apparent ties to, the group behind #DefendRisingSun. - -Still, even as #DefendRisingSun members and supporters have gathered and been filmed in the streets of Charleston and across the country, one thing is certain: The shooter's actions were not inspired by the group's message. - -"We need to be careful not to try to attribute this crime to something political and not to try to attribute this crime to something criminal and not to try to point fingers," President Obama said at a White House press conference Monday night. "And we need to remember what happened in the past is never an excuse for what happened in the future." - -Roof, who was already the suspected shooter in the slayings of a churchgoing couple and parishioner at Emanuel AME Church before Wednesday's killing spree, later took his own life. - -In his video, he makes it clear no one else will be responsible for the flag-raising on the South Carolina Statehouse lawn. - -"I'm going to be a voice for justice of the church. My voice is for justice of the people who were killed. My voice is for justice of justice of people who were hurt. But it's been done by a single individual. We've seen what he did. I've seen where it comes from," he says. - -"He killed nine of his own brothers in the church, and he's gonna kill somebody else in the morning to cover everything up. ... My anger is for the victims of that church," he continues. "They didn't deserve to die; they deserved to go home." - -He went on to say "I had the chance to kill somebody and kill somebody, and the only way I can kill somebody is to put a bullet in their head." - -As #DefendRisingSun rallies to raise the flag at the Statehouse, it stands to do just that.<|endoftext|>About 20 years ago, the Supreme Court began an unwritten effort to make judges more independent, but a court that has always been heavily influenced by a small, powerful bloc of dissenters has been harder to change than many people thought. - -The Supreme Court may not have made any real political impact in the past three decades but it has certainly made an impact on the political process. What are known as partisan gerrymandering cases could have a dramatic impact on future presidential races. - -The Republican-dominated court has been divided 4-4 in a series of rulings, including the 2010 McCutcheon v. FEC case that dramatically reduced campaign contribution limits. In 2013, the court agreed to hear the case brought by Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker. This time the court could split along ideological lines once again to decide how to curb the abuses of wealthy individuals in a way that's favorable to most states. There's a chance this case could also create a real constitutional crisis, as partisan gerrymandering is the only kind that the Supreme Court has agreed to weigh in on. - -It might seem crazy that partisan gerrymandering has become a hot topic these days.

In fact, I was never particularly comfortable before I was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. With my cancer diagnosis, I took it as my mission to try everything to stay alive. - -At least a couple of times a week I went out into the field, dug a hole, hauled in a bucket, emptied and recirculated it, then put my hand in the bucket. I had the power to affect change if I worked at it. - -Yet there was one thing that I'd never tried to do that could have a dramatic impact on the spread of your cancer - and that was to stop taking the prescribed medication for your asthma. - -Because by not taking your routine medication, you can worsen your lung cancer and even make it more aggressive. - -I have had some bad experiences with drug companies trying to sell the asthma medication I'm supposed to take, and not surprisingly, the companies and the drug companies have been fighting me to the court of public opinion for my decision to not be prescribed the drug. - -In the years before my diagnosis, I was prescribed this medication to help me cope with the constant attacks of acute asthma that I suffered. - -My doctor never really talked to me about it, but it was clear that the only reason I got this medication to help me deal with my asthma was because of the lung cancer warning my doctor issued me. They wanted me to take more of their medicine when it was prescribed. In reality, I'm on far less than what is prescribed. - -But the companies wanted me to be on every bottle. - -So in 2013 that I learned my condition had reached stage four cancer, I had to talk to my doctor, ask him to give me the option to stop taking the medication because he wasn't sure why I was receiving all this extra medicine to tackle the condition. The physician was not too thrilled about it either because he said it could increase my risk of liver damage. - -I was on the medication and on it, every day, but I knew it wasn't making my asthma less bad. In fact, when doctors see an increased risk for lung cancer, they prescribe you a more aggressive cancer medicine. - -The pharmaceutical company gave me a list of everything that was in my medicine bag, and as he had said when I told him about stage four lung cancer, every single time I opened the medicine bag a number of different drugs showed up. But in reality, the medicine bag was already full. - -I didn't want to go back to my old system, though, and for a few years I experimented with the asthma medicine instead of taking it daily. - -At first, it wasn't too bad. Most days, I'd find a way to live without the medication for an hour or so. But when I stopped taking it for a certain amount of time, it started to get really bad. - -I'd feel the same symptoms again, and I had to start walking back to my car again and then take a cab. I started taking a ride at least once a day. And it was getting even tougher. The side effects had started to appear, the doctor didn't know how to tell me what medications to take or how to check them out, and I wouldn't be able to drive again. - -With time I learned to live just two blocks or so from my house without taking my medicine. - -When an episode did occur, it lasted an excruciating amount of time, sometimes several weeks. And the treatments for it just seemed to get worse. - -Eventually, my doctor had to take a look at my situation and figure out what the heck was going on. His conclusion: I was on way too much medicine, and that the medicine was causing my lung cancer to take over. - -He made me take a pill every day, but it was nowhere near enough to make the medicine actually work for me – it was just a way to make sure that my condition didn't get worse. It was basically an extra set of wheels for a vehicle that, at the end of the day, wasn't running right. - -If it weren't for the medication, and the fact that I was on a cancer warning, I would've never taken my medication. I'd have made the same mistake I made many times when I started to try to live without my asthma medication as a regular thing. The medication would've been a welcome distraction from the condition, instead of keeping it in the forefront of my mind. But it wasn't there. - -That's why when I got sicker and sicker at the breast in 2015, I could not do anything about it. When I took my medication, nothing changed. When I just quit taking my medication, nothing changed. - -I tried all kinds of treatments to try and find a cure for stage four lung cancer, but nothing worked. - -Then, a few months ago, something happened that made me decide to just not give -======================================== SAMPLE 96 ======================================== -The government's new legislation on encryption technology makes significant changes on the legal landscape surrounding digital encryption. Here is an insight to the amendments the government is introducing. - -In the new legislation, the term "crypto" will be removed from the definition of computer programming, and all encryption will be regarded as "technological protection measures". - -The aim of "technological protection measures" is to create "a way of protecting information by using technical means to control access". An example of such protection would be the use of strong encryption and a strong algorithm to provide security across the network. - -"The aim of protecting information," the bill says, is "not to create the same level of security for the system as the government or a particular business that manages the system. Rather, information should be protected in accordance with the principles in the Bill". (The wording was not published in last week's final draft.) - -The law will not ban software with back doors such as the "Trojan horse" found in the WannaCry ransomware attack or any other software with a built-in mechanism to provide a backdoor for the administration. - -The legislation also will not remove any ability to search and access an encrypted computer network, unlike the UK's sweeping Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act that will end the "warrantless" surveillance on all UK residents. The legislation does also include a provision to require search warrants to be issued for search of computers on their network. - -The government has also proposed that communications providers should have to "encrypt" communications by default and provide a technical means to enable this. The only exceptions to this rule are in those cases where an individual would "reasonably believe" there is a "reasonable expectation of privacy" in the information at issue – which is not easy to define – and would "need to do more than simply decrypt" the device. - -The draft legislation also outlines a wide-ranging code of practice for companies that offer encrypted services, including: "providing encryption for communications that are at least as strong as the strongest known default encryption on the device; - -providing encryption that is secure against any interception by third parties; and - -providing encryption in relation to email messages, instant messaging, and web browsing activities". It will also include a separate code of practice for law enforcement on matters such as accessing encrypted data. - -As with the Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act, the new encryption legislation will be subject to an extended public consultation. The government said it hopes to include additional submissions in the coming months. - -The law also specifies that the Secretary of State, or a designated officer, may authorise the interception of communications, including those of companies. Such authorisations may involve the use of technology and would be subject to a judicial warrant on the grounds that the interception is reasonably necessary. - -In terms of law enforcement, the new laws will also impose additional requirements on law enforcement, including giving access to communications that are encrypted in this way, which must provide a "level of protection that is at least as strong as the encryption on one's device". - -The new law will require telecommunications companies to decrypt all encrypted communications and information that is being stored by them by 31 December 2017. - -Read this Government introduces laws to crack encryption in smartphones The Home Office has revealed plans to crack encryption in smartphones, to make it easier for the police to access suspects' electronic communications in real time. Read More - -The government has also announced that it will work with the country's major internet giants, including tech giants such as Google and Apple, to provide their own encryption tools and make the government's new encryption laws available to companies. This could be a significant step in helping to provide protection against cyber-attacks. - -This is not the first time British government has legislated in relation to encryption.

The researchers used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to examine neural activity related to cognitive processing among 16-month-old children in response to an aversive stimulus. Participants in the study demonstrated greater cognitive processing with the presence of their mothers in the home. - -"While the relationship between relationship complexity and child cognitive processing has been studied in a number of previous studies, our research focuses on an early family environment and its association with the development of later cognitive abilities," said the study's principal investigator, Lisa C.

My baby is falling down the stairs and every time I pick her up she slips and lands right on her head! PLEASE HELP! If no one comes down the stairs she'll go into a coma!!!!!" - -These are just a few of the dozens and dozens of letters that have flooded my mailbox since the birth of my daughter earlier this year. And this is a lot of emails, even for this kind of blog. - -But it also saddens and motivates me, because this is my baby and I want her to grow up healthy. - -And what you're reading is not an attack on the many wonderful things that come with having a newborn. - -There's a lot of help out there, especially for new moms-to-be, and I'm just here to help- with whatever I can- you can help your child too! - -When my daughter was born I was so nervous that I was going to have to deal with her breathing through a hole in my sternum, but I quickly learned she had a breathing tube in place to keep her from drowning. Since we had no other choice, we immediately followed the guidelines for CPR and began following basic guidelines for keeping her breathing until help came. I learned to work out where her throat was, make sure her mouth was open, and take care of her breathing. I also learned that she was going to be a little wiggly around the chest area at times but other times she was so stable that I didn't even have to worry. When her mouth was open and her lungs were working, I didn't have to do a whole lot, except keep her cool and quiet. - -So here we are. She is 4 and a half now, just 2 months away from getting her own little breathing aid, and she now has a feeding tube in place that's going to continue for about a year. It hurts and it's an inconvenience but we're a family, we're willing to make a sacrifice, because this is important to both of us. - -Here are some tips on what we've learned that other parents have found helpful: - -Don't Panic - -If your daughter starts to freak out (like we did during those first few days), do what comes natural. When she's calm, you can ask her questions and answer for her to calm her down, and then you can reassure her that everything's going to be fine. "We'll be here to catch you if you fall down. If you've fallen and landed on yourself, or something hurts your throat, just let us know so we can get you back up, okay? If you've fallen and landed on something soft (like a cushion), you can use your hands to catch yourself up," is a good tip for calming you down. - -Don't Worry About Spots - -We tried this one the first week after our baby was born. Spots can be annoying but if they appear to be spreading from your nipples, you can try to gently put your hand over them with your other hand to get a better look. If you find a spot that's spreading quickly (and it could be that a few of the spots are coming from your tummy), remove your hand immediately to stop the spread or if you find that the spot is going to spread from just one area of your chest to your nipples. When we went to get her checked up at that second office, they recommended that we do the checkups at home because they found some spots on her stomach, or on her nipples, and there were no spots visible as her body expanded. - -Bathroom Time - -I know this only applies to people who are using disposable diapers, because we're using cloth babies (because that's what I have). But if you have to go a day or a second when your baby has some liquid, put her on your back or on your stomach and wrap yourself around her. There are a few things your baby might need to drink while wet, but just like when you're having feedings in the kitchen with the bowl in front of you, just take a few breaths as you sip your drink. If your baby is having a hard time swallowing then you might want to just try not to squeeze too hard. - -The Best Way to Cope - -I wish there was one way for us to handle our child when they were in danger. And maybe there is one, and maybe not. - -But for now, we know that it doesn't matter how good you are at CPR, what the doctors recommend, or what others suggest, it's only going to take a little bit of effort to get out of danger. - -So, instead of having to worry, or having to think and prepare, you can just let the baby do what she needs to do. - -And that's not something I can do for her or teach her. So she gets to decide what can be done for her. She might fall, or fall on something soft -======================================== SAMPLE 98 ======================================== -The Supreme Court has taken the unprecedented step of refusing to hear a case that would have required the federal government to allow same-sex couples to marry nationwide. However, the Court's refusal to hear the case has not ended an effort by supporters to force the issue by asking the Supreme Court to hear their case. - -The group, Marriage Equality USA (MEUSA), sued the U.S. Attorney General on Thursday alleging in part that her office was in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) by not issuing a decision on whether to defend the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) to the Supreme Court. The Defense of Marriage Act prohibits the federal government from allowing federal employees to recognize same-sex marriages of those who are legally married in a state they reside. - -The plaintiffs' appeal filed on Nov. 18, 2013 states that on Nov. 19, 2013, attorneys for the Office of Legal Counsel advised the office that the Department of Justice would not file a legal brief defending DOMA against the lawsuit, but would instead file a brief for a federal appellate court. The Office of Legal Counsel informed plaintiff attorney Edith Windsor, one of the plaintiffs and a former plaintiff in the case, that this was not a "legal decision" and that there was no legal reason why there should be a gap of three weeks between the Office of Legal Counsel's decision and its filing in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, which heard the case on April 29. - -DOMA has been the subject of a long fought battle between the gay community and the federal government. In 1996, DOMA was passed in the U.S. Congress as part of the Defense of Marriage Act. The law was signed into law by President Bill Clinton following passage of the Defense of Marriage Act in a lame duck session. It was then President George W. Bush who, two years after taking office, issued an Executive Order to prohibit federal contractors from discriminating in employment based on marital status. - -However, same-sex marriage advocates say that the case has merit under Section 3 of the APA that states that no party has the right to bring a claim of legal discrimination in the court of law except under Section 5, even if the discrimination is in violation of federal law. - -Meaning, "it's a legal dispute," but MEUSA is seeking to put forward a theory by which DOMA should be overturned by the judicial branch, not being the result of a federal lawsuit against the government. MEUSA contends that the U.S. Department of Justice is not upholding DOMA, which should be overturned, and has asked the court to intervene. If the court denies MEUSA's request, it will also be refusing to give its opponents standing to petition for a decision by the Supreme Court. - -"DOMA is lawless, it is unfair and it should be overturned by the courts, but it should not be enforced in the courts. We're still hoping that the U.S. Supreme Court will do the right thing and allow marriage equality," said Brian Brown, president of MassUnity.org. "This is just one of the many cases in which the Supreme Court has said that people should challenge laws without fearing the federal courts will say they lack standing to challenge these laws. The Supreme Court's decision to not hear this case makes it almost certain that the Supreme Court will not hear any cases on marriage equality." - -Since same-sex marriage was legalized by the Supreme Court's historic ruling, Massachusetts has become the 19th State where same-sex marriage is legal. The law was approved just as President Obama was leaving office, and Gov. Deval Patrick (D) has been encouraging lawmakers to approve marriage equality as part of the state's 2016 budget. The budget is expected to pass by the end of this month.<|endoftext|>In an effort to make sure the United States was always one step ahead, the Department of Defense would occasionally send young men to be assigned to the world's most dangerous spots. These men were not there to fight wars. They were there to protect themselves in a dangerous, war-torn, volatile environment. One of the first of them was Richard Dowling, who eventually rose to become the highest ranking official on the military team tasked with protecting the president. One of the last people that he ever saw alive was his friend and mentor, Captain John Hart.<|endoftext|>Miguel Sano's injury is a setback, but he is still in the mix going into the 2016 season.

In 1802, an angry mob in Sydney, led by Captain John Murray, took the form of a large procession and was accompanied on this occasion by a small troop of horsemen of the Australian colony of New South Wales. This was the first major incident of an Australian chase. The following year, Captain Murray decided to get his revenge on the same group of people for his humiliating reception by the residents of Sydney. His troops captured a company of horsemen and a few of their horses and, having brought them before him, the Captain proceeded to ride them to the top of St. Paul's Hill which is immediately to the south of Little Bourke Street. From the top of this hill the chase took place in open country where the pursuers were accompanied by a large body of mounted men. The horses were led into a ditch along the edge of the hill for a distance of nearly three hundred feet. The crowd then made an attempt to climb up the hill and was met with a hail of bullets from one of the Captain's own horses. A small group of soldiers with bayonets came in to the rescue firing off their guns into -======================================== SAMPLE 100 ======================================== -[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 1/11] mesa: Remove legacy C-style casts - -On Fri, Aug 18, 2015 at 4:26 PM, J.

The change, which is expected to take effect on December 14, will result in the loss of over a million jobs and a nearly $15 billion loss in revenue. What's more, the USPS is going to pay a $5.5 billion fine, the result of a decade's worth of misconduct, including accepting improper payments in excess of its legal limit and using contractors to ship illegal drugs. To make matters worse, the Postal Mail Act is coming under fire from Congress. And in fact, the USPS itself is the very organization that we've been fighting for to save us. We've asked the USPS to stop harassing us over a decade of fraud and abuse. We've asked the USPS to stop violating our First Amendment right to petition the government. We've asked the Postal Service to stop illegally seizing our mail. We've asked the USPS to stop shipping drugs, guns, and other contraband across our border. But our pleas have fallen on deaf ears; it looks like none of those requests have done any good. - -This year, we've sent hundreds of letters to Congress. We've sent more than 500 petitions to the Postal Service protesting the planned sale of our postal monopoly. We've sent letters to more than 100 mayors, including Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and other leaders from cities across America, pleading our case. The USPS is still violating some of our rights; it seems as though they're treating us as the wild, feral animals we are. The USPS, however, seems very, very content with this status quo. It recently released a video of a "dog day after" celebration involving employees. Our postal employees, many of them on second and third shifts, celebrated the holiday of "dog day after." The only problem is, no one seems to be allowed to keep a dog, in particular a miniature poodle named Max and his owner, Megan. - -Max is a miniature poodle and Megan is his owner. Together, they've spent almost 20 years working as a mail carrier, and it's a job that Megan loves. Last year they were able to save up for a service dog. And Max, for his part, really enjoyed being recognized as a member of the canine species. So when the postal workers decided they wanted to keep him as a service dog, it seemed like a perfect fit. So why are they now refusing and harassing Megan and Max, in order to do just -======================================== SAMPLE 102 ======================================== -There's been quite a lot of buzz in the media about how many immigrants have come to the US. In this post, I'll look at whether that's really the case and whether that leads to more problems or better outcomes for the US economy, society, and culture, or just a slightly different sort of thing we'd probably expect, given that the US is still the most successful example of a homogenous welfare state and immigration is usually a good thing. - -This will be a fairly technical post; the best way to understand all of this stuff is to read my earlier posts on the topic, especially the more technical ones like "The Welfare Economics of Immigration," "The Effect of Immigration on Wage Rates", and "The Wage Penalty of Immigrants". - -What Is the Effect of Immigration on American Wages? - -Before continuing, I also want to make a few disclaimers: - -There may well be some benefits of immigration to the US economy from economic diversity and spillovers, but those benefits aren't clear-cut and it's premature and probably misleading to simply take a snapshot of them right now. - -There are lots of other things that might go into this, and I'm not claiming that these aren't important. But I will briefly address four issues: (i) immigration might affect wages in a few of the ways some people seem to think; (ii) immigration might change the types of jobs that people are willing to take; (iii) the effect of immigration on overall consumption might be positive or negative; and (iv) the way in which economists think about immigration effects on aggregate economic wellbeing. - -There may be some benefits of immigration to the US economy from economic diversity and spillovers, but those benefits aren't clear-cut and it's premature and probably misleading to simply take a snapshot of them right now. - -Immigration is good for the economy and society in a couple of ways. More immigration means more people are working (or working harder, if you prefer the phrase) and consuming more (see "The Welfare Economics of Immigration"), and more productive people (or people working harder) is always good for the economy. But, there are also some costs as well. - -The first type that tends to be talked about is that immigrants might be less productive and cost the economy "assets." In fact, as we've already seen, it's easy enough to show that it's often true. Consider some hypothetical immigrants. Suppose the average immigrant has an annual income of $100,000 and has been living in the country for 10 years, which is a fairly typical time in which immigrants typically start their lives. They're a "dilutive" immigrant, meaning that their average consumption in the year they leave is below the average of all natives combined. - -Immigrants are always less productive than the average natives and are more likely to take on debt. - -What does this imply for the economy of the country in which the immigrant lives? The country doesn't "lose" those $100,000 in total output per year to the immigrants. The immigrants actually get more money than it costs to produce the output that the immigrants consume, which is also why it's always possible for the country to "reward" these immigrants by paying them higher taxes. - -What about the other types of assets that they might provide? They're less likely to pay taxes (again, this isn't because they're necessarily less productive). But we know that immigrants are generally more educated than the average native, which implies that they're also likely to be more likely to work more hours, and in turn spend their earnings on goods and services. - -Immigrants are always less productive than the average natives and are more likely to take on debt, which means that they don't contribute much overall to the country's wealth. - -This all helps to explain why immigration has done somewhat well in the past, but how does it affect the economy today? - -The Effects of Immigrants on Labor Market Outcomes - -Before I get in to the benefits of immigration, though, let's first have a brief look at the possible downsides. There's some debate about how much immigrants have had an impact on the labor market, but there is very good evidence that it has been very small (or nonexistent). - -One reason that people are skeptical of the impact of immigration on the labor market is that some of the jobs that immigrants tend to take seem like perfectly good jobs. Immigrants are overwhelmingly in low-wage, low-skill jobs, and it's hard to see how a big influx of immigrants into these jobs could produce big effects that people would care about. - -If immigrants are disproportionately in low-wage jobs, there's not much you could do to make up for that. If they're disproportionately in jobs that people don't want anyway, those can't be fixed either. So, unless you think that the type of job that immigrants are taking is the kind of thing you would necessarily want, you have to conclude -======================================== SAMPLE 103 ======================================== -POPULAR - -I started to have doubts about the Wargaming forums a long time ago since many posters that i have encountered have been hostile or aggressive towards members of the server and the community. One particular time when i saw a poster was very aggressive towards players who had not done enough RP to get promoted to a high enough tier. That poster was a commander who had the following poster below as his signature: - - -In this photo, the only person in the poster who has done some RP, or not done all that much RP to get promoted to the first tier by Wargaming was me. The Commander who wrote that comment was a man called "Trupp". He was not only a very rude poster but a very mean person in general. He posted multiple offensive comments towards me and my friends even though they had not done any RP or RP level enough to get the poster's signature. - -Trupp had been on both of the WG forums before I joined and had been known for making rude posts to other players (the same posters with the insulting signature of "Trupp" were on both forums before me too). - -Since that day, most Wargaming posts on the forums are very rude and intimidating to players who have not done as much RP as Trupp had on the forums. One of his biggest ranting posts in his own thread was the one below: - - -There is also this: - -WG Forum - Trupp: "A good rule is that if someone isn't doing enough RP for you, and you put in the time, you should be able to get them to do all of it." - -One of Trupp's biggest ranting posts in the forum was the same poster above, when he did not get promotions for his RP: "If anybody is here who said they're doing enough RP, and you put in the time, I promise you'll never have to see anyone complain about you being a noob when they're done with their first 100 hours on the forum." This was even though he had done more RP than me himself and posted his own signature: - -When all of this is done, you'll see a new "Trupp" and you'll realize that you are dealing with the same people that made the posts above, people that are rude to every single player on the server. That's what you need, the same type of people, for WG forums, WG's servers. These people are also the same type of people who make posts above telling the people in the forums to stop complaining because they did not do as much RP as the poster (who did not do much RP for the poster) himself did: - -WG Forum - Trupp: "And if somebody doesn't have the patience to do the time, he shouldn't post here anyways!" - -When i put into a post below the same type of people, i said: - -WG Forum - Trupp: "For many reasons i don't agree with the poster above, and it's just not cool to be a dick here. If you're going to go after other posters, you know what you need to do to get rid of the trolls. Try to do the very same to me (as mentioned in the post above). Now get outa this thread and do some real rp. If you can, help people make their first 50 hours here and get RP to them. Make them come play in WGF." - -I never expected other players to respect me and my friends more than this kind of "help" from the community, people who think that they can ignore the opinions of others on the server, because they "got a higher rank". - -People like "Trupp" and others like him are the very reason why i don't want my friends and I on the servers anymore. They should not decide that they can do what they want to us. We are not allowed to have those kinds of forums. We need to get involved in community events, we need to give support, and we need to learn how to work with each other. I don't want to be the kind of person who needs to be punished/shamed/denied access/not be promoted or anything of that sort for something that i am doing with no problem. - -When i said some people on the servers need to "work with each other" i didn't mean to insult these people. Many players, and a fair number of them players who are new and new to the forums, have started to help each other with their problems and problems with the games, in a very positive way. When i say "help" i didn't mean to insult the way that some players help each other to get rid of trolls or people like "Trupp", i don't mean to insult all "help" that is done by players of the servers. I don't even deny that.

M. Cogswell, PhD, in the department of Psychology, said in a statement. - -Previous studies have found that dieting, in addition to being ineffective at making the body look a certain way, can lead to emotional problems. This new study, in addition to finding an indirect link between dieting and low self-esteem, suggests that dieting may lead also to some mental health issues to compensate. - -The researchers found that of the 711 women in the study, 38 percent, or 118, said they had dieted to lose more weight. That number was roughly consistent with previous research, which has found a link between dieting and eating disorders. - -Also similar to previous research, the women surveyed used a variety of strategies to diet, including trying to lose or trim down certain parts of their bodies, including their hair, and trying to limit portions. - -The researchers found that women who were more likely to have a history of dieting also reported that they had higher levels of body-image dissatisfaction, a psychological state that may cause dieters to engage in unhealthy behaviors, such as binge eating and self-image dissatisfaction. - -Previous studies have shown that dieting alone does not change body weight, but when combined with a change in dieting strategies and/or a reduction in calorie intake, women can make small but substantial gains in their body weight. - -However, women with low self-esteem and low body-image dissatisfaction are more likely to engage in binge eating because of negative self-esteem. - -The authors noted that women who are dieting should be aware of a risk that they may be using diet to mask another problem. - -"Although we were not able to show that dieting alone causes mental health disorders associated with binge eating and body dissatisfaction, it would be logical that if poor body image motivates dieting, it could also be responsible for unhealthy behaviors like binge eating and lack of exercise," Cogswell said.<|endoftext|>I don't get why it's important to make the point that the average person doesn't buy any books from Amazon. The answer is that people are buying from Amazon much more than they are buying from non-Amazon sellers. - -I get that, but the people who do buy a book from Amazon do so from a non-Amazon seller. So, if you have a lot of non-Amazon sellers selling from Amazon, all those sales are going to someone who buys books directly from Amazon rather than from somebody else. That's great for Amazon, and if you just wanted to save some money, that's a good approach. But it's not the best way to make book industry-wide improvements. Amazon, for example, makes much more money from its marketplace than other major booksellers do. - -Amazon is making a profit on all sales, in both traditional and digital formats, but not necessarily in all formats. But the other way to make book sales more efficient is to figure out how to move more of the business to the sellers themselves. Amazon is the only major ebook retailer offering this service. - -The other way is to offer book distribution services on a wholesale basis. There are many booksellers who provide this type of service, including all of the major domestic distributors. But I'm aware of no other major e-tailer offering wholesale services. You don't have to tell me how good your service is. You just have to figure out the right market share, which you can use to your advantage. - -For example, I have a book service that allows you to buy one or two new books when you have lots of free time — and then I sell them immediately. But I also have a service called Kindle Unlimited that allows you to buy a book once, read it on whatever device, then use whatever device you want to read the rest of it. You don't "buy" a book, you use it forever. So you can still consume a book from the Kindle Unlimited service once; you can even read every last word of any book in Kindle Unlimited after you've finished reading it. In fact, if you prefer not to read any book on your phone, you can even skip a book. So Amazon can offer a whole range of services, with one big advantage: It only needs some -======================================== SAMPLE 106 ======================================== -I think my gift must've gotten lost… but I finally found it!

They've come from the distant star-plexes of Kroot, which are a major source of the Imperium's food. They are particularly adept at cheese-eating. - -History [ edit ] - -White Dwarf article: Kroot [1] - -The Imperial Guard are already in love with Kroot cheese. We all want to taste the delicious, sweet, and savoury tang of Kroot cheese! This may seem like nothing more than a passing fancy, but the Kroot have a more nefarious plan in mind! The Kroot are in the grip of a conspiracy to enslave humanity, and they'll use their cheese-eating skills in order to corrupt them, turning them into mindless Kroot slaves. This plan is, of course, all part of their plan! - -Kroot and the Emperor [ edit ] - -The Kroot were originally from Kroot, a star system located in the Eye of Terror as well as the largest one of its kind. The Imperium originally feared Kroot were a threat, as they are well known for eating flesh and have a predilection for cheese-eating. But this had been taken to an insane level after the Kroot discovered cheese-eating was a potent mind-control tactic. The Kroot quickly took advantage of this, and as the Imperium could no longer be sure of the food supplies of humans, they adopted the Kroot as an alien species. The Imperium hoped that if the Kroot adopted humans like a new form of domesticated pigs, they would adopt a similar mindset, and become loyal servants of the Imperium. The Kroot were granted to the Imperium as war beasts, and given new lives that were better than life as common Kroot. - -This plan failed. With a single act of arrogance, the Kroot killed off the Emperor of Mankind and began using their skills as mind controlled slaves to enslave the rest of the galaxy. A new species of Kroot was born. This time, they ate cheese. These Kroot came to be feared throughout the galaxy as the "Witchhunters" or simply "Kroot" for short. - -The Kroot Wars, the Imperium's first foray into fighting off a non-human race, has been raging in the Eye for a decade. The Imperium has sent out vast fleets of ships, some containing the Imperial Guard, against the Kroot in attempts to conquer the Kroot homeworlds of Kroot, Kroot, Kroot. But the Kroot have proven more than a match for the Imperial Navy and their superior technology. - -So now the Imperium has found themselves fighting a two front war in the first few days of the Kroot Wars.

You should know what to expect tomorrow!" - -That's actually good advice I should take a look at, so that's what I'm going to do. - -First of all, there's a couple of points that should be important to make. I'm still in the process of transitioning between "unpaid internship" and "paid company internship", and it's not easy. So this is all very much "work in progress" and I'm trying not to make too many premature decisions about this part of my career. I was at TechCrunch in my last internship, and I was really glad about this as well. It felt way more organized and not like I was working on the same things over and over, with very little opportunity for promotion. So I like this idea of doing another and trying it both ways, and hopefully it'll work. - -Second, we have to take a look back at last weekend… - -Last weekends event was at DevConf that was held in New York. At the beginning of the weekend the event was a little bit "off", it seemed like a lot of people just got there with one thing in particular in mind. So it felt a little more loose and I was still learning a lot about the program. - -I worked very late. It was around 9 or 10 PM and I didn't have anything to do, I was waiting for my friend Alex to come by for supper so I could spend the night with him. I had no idea what would have happened tomorrow, so I just hung out in a Starbucks coffee shop for a while until my friend Alex and I got home. After he left I felt super "meh". I wasn't feeling excited, I was just ready for the day to end and I wanted to go home. - -I had more or less read most of the articles, watched pretty much every Youtube video, etc. after the event. I was getting pretty familiar with how the program works. So when I looked into the DevSecOps book I was a little bit surprised to see that at this event it had just published a special edition, with a "special guest author". It was this person by name Daniel Sturm. He is now not only the senior program manager, but also the head of the DevSecOps program. - -I started reading Daniel's blog post this morning. There was a lot of useful information in there, but I'm still not sure if it's actually useful. For example, the part that I want to discuss is the one where he talks about the "culture of DevOps" and how that needs to move into a "culture of happiness" for the developers and the company. I have not found anything like this anywhere else, so that should give you a hint how much I dislike this part of the program. - -My favorite part was the part where he talked about the "DevOps team" and how they need to "work together for the good of the company". I don't know what he saw in us to start with to think we're good enough to work together for the good of the company. Also, we have been there before. In the early days of DevOps everyone thought that everyone else was wrong, that DevOps was too hard to work on, etc., and so we started our own thing called The DevOps Team, and we just tried to work together, and we were successful for about 4 months. They said we were doing a great job. - -So that brings me to my next point. I am not sure what the "culture of happiness" means exactly, but I'm pretty sure it means that each company has a culture that is different from the other companies. Every organization has its own way of doing things, that might be good for some, -======================================== SAMPLE 108 ======================================== -Feminist Frequency's Anita Sarkeesian recently came under fire from both supporters and detractors after a video detailing her series on how female characters in video games are portrayed was removed and reuploaded onto YouTube.

Exports were up 6.4 percent, compared with the growth rate the U.S. government reported in October, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. - -That's less than the 7.6-percent increase in October that some forecasters were expecting, but still strong. Exports were up 7.9 percent from the previous year, up from March's 0.7-percent growth rate, with the increase partly driven by better performance at major export markets, the report showed. - -"With an increase in the unemployment rate of some 1.8 percentage points to 8.0 percent, there is no doubt that we will see more of these trade-related problems," said Adam Stoltmann, senior economist at Bank of the West. - -Exports of goods such as cars, aircraft, machinery, agricultural products and pharmaceuticals, which account for two-thirds of all U.S. exports, were up 9.8 percent in September from the previous month, according to the report. - -Retail trade fell 13.2 percent over the same period of time.

There are major differences in all of these, including in propulsion engines, radar, and sensor systems. - -Although the F-35 has been in development for some time, it now comes into full view. A full technical description of the aircraft was published in the December issue of American Defense magazine. While some aspects of the F-35 are obvious (which I can't remember) other things are still not entirely apparent. The most important thing to know for the moment is that it is a stealth fighter designed to attack a relatively small target (a fast moving object) against a much smaller threat (the threat is a bomber or cruise missile) because all of these other planes can't really do it without massive modifications. The F-35's mission will be to attack other threats that other bombers or cruise missiles cannot, and also to defend itself (with the right air defense support) from attack by other bombers or cruise missiles. The F-35 in its current configuration is capable of all of this and more. - -(click to embiggen) - -When I began this project, the F-35 was on the drawing boards as an alternative to the F-16. It was expected that it would be a "little bit" smaller in size than the F-16. This led many to say that the F-35 lacked stealth, and there is certainly no way the F-35 could ever have been stealthy. However, with a number of upgrades that make the F-35 significantly larger than the F-16, it has a far greater level of stealth than is possible with the F-16. - -The full technical description of the F-35 as a fighter jet is available, it was posted here. - -The F-35 is more or less a large delta wing F-16 with a very large bomb bay and many other "add-ons" designed to give it additional air-to-air capabilities. These add-ons include the ability to fire laser-guided high-explosive JDAMs and the ability to carry air-to-ground weapons. Most of the F-18's air-to-air combat experience came from the F-15E Strike Eagle; the F-4 Phantom II was designed to attack ground targets; and the F-15 and F-16 have the best capabilities to attack the ground. While the F-15E and the F-16 were designed for air-to-air combat, the F-35's capabilities will likely be more suited in battle against other fighter aircraft (Bombers, cruise missiles, etc.) and cruise missiles. The F-16 is also more capable than the F-35 at "short" (20-40 miles) range combat. - -The F-15 has the largest air-to-air weapons load-out of any aircraft in the world. The plane carries the AGM-65 Maverick missile loaded internally, but they can be carried externally with a standard 40-pound charge. The F-15A/B Super Eagle carries one AGM-84H Sidewinder internal pod and has another internal one to add one of the AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles, and they can also be loaded externally for a total of three of the AIM-9s. In short, the F-15A/B Super Eagle and F-16 have more weapons than any other fighter or bomber, and for a very expensive plane. A F-16E in the USAF carries one AGM-65C Phoenix missile internally, which can load one of the AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles with a 100-pound external charge, and one AIM-132 Stinger missile internally, which can fire six AIM-9s without external charge. A Mirage 2000D in the USAF is loaded with one AGM-109M Joint Standoff Weapon (JSOW) loaded with one of five standard Tomahawk missiles, and one external one loaded with the Tomahawk anti-ship missile, the AN/APG-76. - -The Eurofighter Typhoon carries ten MICA air-to-air missiles internally and, in the Eurofighter Typhoon SE (with an internal bomb bay), has two internal weapons pods -======================================== SAMPLE 110 ======================================== -As usual there are lots of different ways to build your game: you can combine traditional concepts or invent a whole new one from scratch. You might use Unity's built in scripting capabilities from day one, but instead of taking a basic scripting class you can simply learn JavaScript, a powerful and rapidly growing programming language. - -Unity allows you to have a game built in less than 10 minutes, so if you'd like to start coding before you're even halfway through your project, go for it. - -However, there are always downsides to using this way: - -Unity is very powerful. It's not as user friendly as game engines like Unreal or CryEngine. If you intend to publish your game on a large scale then you might want to find out more about its licensing and business model. For the less technical, Unity allows you to write your games in Javascript for the sake of portability. To make this possible, it is a fully functional Javascript runtime and all the standard libraries that you might be used to. - -The learning curve can be quite steep. It might seem like Unity takes a long time to get used to, but once you do the experience and learning curve can pay off. The game scripting part takes less than a day and once you go trough the basics you don't have to worry about it anymore. - -It's not like other software development that you can find online. As a developer you're required to know a new language, and learn something different every single time you start a project. If you're just starting, that's going to be a hard sell. It makes the experience of taking over an existing or trying to come into a new engine really unique. It can even be an attractive alternative, as Unity often offers free credits to early Unity users. - -So if you're a Unity gamer you could start from scratch on a new project, or jump ship and pick up a pre developed or written engine that already comes with game features. But if you're only a casual enthusiast or have never used one before then these might just be all the benefits you need out of a programming environment! - -Downloadable resources - -Download the Unity 5 Tutorials and Games from Udemy - -Unity 5 has a huge amount of features and features that allow you to work on your game from a whole new perspective.

But, right now, that is what I believe with respect to what the parties are doing," Mr. Kibbek said. - -In Edmonton's Edmonton-Strathcona riding, which was part of the 2011 election that saw the Conservatives win 51 per cent of the vote, a survey by Nanos Research conducted in September and October of this year and reported this week by the Edmonton Journal found that Conservative candidates, even when they were outspent 2:1, won only 19 per cent of the popular vote. - -The Liberal candidate, Wayne Drysdale (pictured, left), and Green Party leader Elizabeth May, who was first elected in Vancouver South five years ago, were tied for second place in the poll. - -The result in the riding means the Conservative candidate, Linda Johnson, will need both the Green Party vote and the support of at least 17 per cent of Liberal voters to make the cut for a fall convention. The race has been wide open since the party first nominated Ms. Johnson. - -Story continues below advertisement - -Story continues below advertisement - -In Vancouver South, which is the riding where Mr. Kibbek was first elected after being elected as the Liberals' candidate in 2000 and represented them in the federal NDP until 2008, a poll by Forum Research conducted in March saw the two Liberal candidates tied for first place in the riding. It also showed that Mr. Chong led in that riding ahead of the June election. Both Mr. Kibbek and Mr. Chong have indicated they are still considering entering the race. - -"It's always a big risk to be a candidate, but if you're a politician that is going to bring some new ideas and some new ideas to the table, I think the party is ready and willing to consider it," Mr. Chong told iPolitics earlier this year. - -With that in mind, the party has yet to rule out a leadership contest for both the current leadership candidates and for Mr. Kibbek.

"I mean, I don't think it's possible to describe what an enormous relief it is to be out of the daily chaos and the daily grind and the daily fight. I can't wait to get to work on behalf of the American people." - -Trump supporters have long claimed that Clinton made this speech to "whistle-blow" to her supporters, and to the country at large. However, Clinton clearly did it for reasons other than that: Acknowledging the massive blame that should rightfully be placed over her former boss, Hillary Clinton admitted that even before the election she knew that it was Obama's fault that Trump is in the White House. - -"People often say to me, why are you still involved? And I tell them, 'You know, I've been around too long,'" she said. "There's just no doubt in my mind that if Donald Trump had beaten me, he probably would have been a little less inclined to be unpredictable and a little less inclined to start World War III." - -It will probably take a couple more weeks before Hillary has to defend her actions in making this remark, but it will eventually come. The reality is that Trump has been a clear and present threat to the national security of our country for years. The Democrats have actively enabled this threat through their obstruction of Trump's Cabinet nominations, support of illegal acts such as the Muslim Ban, and now their refusal to even consider his appointments. - -What do you think about Hillary admitting that it was Obama in 2008 who started World War III?

The law would limit the time period where the plans can be re-sold. - -Under the current law, policyholders will be grandfathered in, which means the policies are generally guaranteed to be sold for at least two more years. This gives enrollees a year -======================================== SAMPLE 113 ======================================== -If I could find my keys, I would make sure to take all of my valuables and the clothes on my back and move to the suburbs of my house, preferably just after the sun falls in the sky. - -My mother told me this story when I was 15-years old, and it didn't make me feel particularly good. She had been murdered while working for the FBI, but in my mind, she'd been murdered at her job because I was going to go to Iraq. - -So, I had a pretty good idea that the FBI's "investigation" into her death would be a charade. The only thing I couldn't figure out was why she didn't tell anyone she was pregnant, that she had two children, or that she had gone missing. My mother had been on her feet for over a month before the FBI realized that a woman they had spent five years looking for couldn't be a suspect. - -The only person I talked to in the entire investigation was my ex-best friend. I remember him being very worried about me and the police searching his house, and it hit me in a way no interrogation could. The FBI seemed obsessed with the idea that our friendship was somehow related to her disappearance. - -That was the last week I was in the room. The police left a few days later without me or my mother and left me with the man who had tortured me for three years, and then lied about the whole thing. I had no one to turn to; no one to tell my story; no one to defend me; no one to go to prison for. It was like a bad dream that had just suddenly come to life. - -Years of feeling like I was completely lost to the world and the only people who mattered were those that would defend me with violence were suddenly gone. I felt like a criminal instead of a victim at that point in my life. - -The worst part of the whole experience is that the FBI had no idea what had happened to my mother. Even the man who confessed to me, and he told me this over and over in front of the man I thought was my best friend, didn't know anything about what had happened to her. He said she had disappeared into a dark underground passage from which nobody ever came out. - -But he did tell me what happened to her days after she left me, as a way to get sympathy from me. He told me she had been killed during an armed robbery of a bank, and he said that the only thing he knew for sure was that she was pregnant. - -I knew that's not true, and that's why I was so angry with him. I hated him for ruining my mom's story, for saying my mother was murdered, and for taking away everything we'd shared during our first three years together. - -One night after getting out of the mental health unit that the FBI had set us up in, I had a conversation with my mom. I sat her down and told her that I was going to Iraq and that I had a lot of things I had to do, and that I would need her help. - -"I'm going to Iraq, are you sure you want me to leave you?" she asked. - -"Why not?" I answered. "What better way to spend the last week of July in July? As long as I'm with you, you won't be alone in this world." - -"I don't want to leave you," she cried. - -"No you won't," I assured her firmly. "You won't be alone because I'll be here for you while you're there. I'll be your best friend in Iraq, no matter what happens." After all, I thought, it might as well happen the best way possible. - -I was so young that I had no idea that anything I did here would have any meaning for my family. As it turned out though, my mom loved me so much that even when I thought my adventure was over, she refused to let me go. - -I spent the next year doing everything I could to keep my mom together during her hospitalization. I went back to school with her so that I could stay close to her all the time, I made sure I got a job so I could have enough money to get by while she was gone, I put my grades in one of our two local schools so I could get some extra money to pay rent. I kept her in my life and did everything in my power to make sure we had each other. Even when she asked me to leave her, I didn't. - -And it worked. - -When I got out of the hospital at the end of July 2008, I went back to visit my mom at a nearby nursing home. I remember the day clearly. As soon as I walked into the room, she looked up at me and smiled. A few minutes later, she reached out and gave me a long, deep kiss. She -======================================== SAMPLE 114 ======================================== -Fossil fuels are still crucial for the energy needs of the world. There is still a need for alternative energy sources as well as a decrease in their relative price rate. However, despite the global dependence of fossil fuel on fossil fuels, the demand for fossil fuel remains very high and there is a significant amount of fossil fuel reserves which are yet to be exploited. Hence, fossil fuels are being produced at very high price and are yet to be exhausted. - -What is the reason for such an excess of fossil fuel reserves? The primary reason is the large level of production of fossil fuels through extraction of the petroleum based oil and gas. The other important reason is the huge growth in the consumption of fossil fuels in the developed countries which caused high levels of oil price, even though the cost of producing it is high. - -The total energy intensity of fossil fuels has dropped over the course of the last 80 years, as the energy costs are declining. The growth in energy use in the developed countries which is mainly based on fossil fuel and has contributed to the high relative price of fossil fuels. - -It was estimated that the production of oil from conventional sources is increasing at an annual rate of 8% but this rate is steadily decreasing as it takes time, effort and resources to develop conventional sources of fossil fuels, that are mainly based on fossil fuel reserves. However, there are a number of unconventional fossil fuel source of the energy, which have yet to be developed, but with their development will have a great impact on the economic and energy balance between the developed and less developed countries. - -However, the use of renewable sources for energy has been increasing with respect to consumption, which has also resulted in decreasing the rate of growth. The use of wind is the way to go in terms of renewable sources of energy. However in developed countries, where wind and solar resources are very limited, it is more suitable to use other renewable energy sources such as hydroelectric energy, biomass like wood and bio energy which are more practical and efficient than wind and solar source of energy. - -In addition to the use of renewable source of energy, natural gas has been rapidly expanding to become an important alternative source of energy and the use of natural gas which is the least expensive and the purest form of fossil fuel, is increasing significantly due to the increased demand and supply for energy from the developed countries where natural gas is heavily marketed. - -The use of oil is going to be a major issue in the future since the rate of growth of the global oil supply at present can't accommodate the growing global demands and the decline in oil prices. - -The demand for oil has been rising at 1% with respect to population and world economy. The global rate of oil demand has been declining with respect to population and world economy in recent years and oil supply has been growing at about 1%. Given the high level of oil prices, the demand and supply of crude oil has been declining which has affected all oil companies and contributed to the overall decline of the world oil market. - -Oil is currently being provided at very high costs by several nations. Due to the high cost of oil, it is still profitable for foreign oil companies to supply oil, which is primarily being used in fuel, to countries which want to export oil. This is the way for oil production to continue in the developed countries, which are trying to develop their own sources of fuel but without taking into account the environmental impacts, which is not only very important for countries on the developing countries, but also for the developed countries such as the USA. - -A large number of oil wells are being drilled on land where there is oil which are unable to be economically and environmentally developed due to the high cost of oil, although there is a large quantity and it can be extracted even at the high prices of oil, yet it is highly unlikely that the oil wells will be completely developed, with the oil wells being drilled into the ground. It is estimated that there are about 10-11 billion barrels of oil that are yet to be released to the market in the USA where there is a huge demand from the US military. - -The amount of oil that is produced by fracking in the USA has been increasing since 2013 and in the future it is likely that the USA can only meet the demand of the military as long as it continues to supply gas to the US. The USA is a large consumer of natural gas which has a very high price of $15 per million BTU; which means, the demand for gas in USA is expected to increase significantly in coming years. - -Natural gas is an important component of the generation of energy from renewable sources in the USA and in many countries with large consumption of energy the demand of natural gas has already outstripped the amount of natural gas that is available for the generation of energy. - -The USA is the biggest consumer of natural gas in the world, which has a consumption of about 6%, which is larger than its economic production. The high cost of natural gas has caused the USA to import about half of the total natural -======================================== SAMPLE 115 ======================================== -Mortin Harket, chief executive officer of Google, was interviewed at the annual Goldman Sachs Technology and Internet Conference in New York. - -At the event, Harket fielded the question of whether people would stop using search engines like Google for the company's own personal services or for social-networking sites like Facebook. The Google search results are the main reason people will still use Google for search results in Google, where the company earns a 30% income before taxes. - -Google recently unveiled its online shopping tool and will roll out a similar service later this month for online travel. While Google has long offered services that allow people to search for travel advice and book hotel rooms, the new feature will let people search for flights and hotels on their way to locations, such as a vacation or a wedding. Google hasn't confirmed whether those services will be sold as add-on services or have a standalone app. - -The social networks are more dependent on the revenue generated through advertising, which is why Facebook is trying to monetize its Facebook search results. The companies have made an agreement to work together on the "Next Gen" social-networking site as reported in Re/code. - -Harket said it is tough to judge social networks like Facebook, which has grown so quickly, and it won't be able to predict what the overall revenue can be. "Facebook is going to grow so very quickly. And we understand that, and we want to compete against it. That's not what makes us successful," he said. - -He also defended Google's Android operating system. In the interview, he said Android has a "better user experience" than rival iOS. Harket said Apple's iPhone is "better than any Android phone." - -Despite its rapid growth in search results, Google's revenue per search engine dollar has been steadily falling. The company is projected to bring in $2.3 billion in revenue per year from search in 2013, down from $2.6 billion the year before, The New York Times reports. Harket claimed that the decline is mostly a result of lower advertising revenue, which has been influenced by shifting habits from users. "Social media in particular will have a big impact on advertisers, but I think all advertising needs to change," Harket said. - -As far as other personal services for Google, it will add maps to Google Maps in the coming months. "Mobile is our biggest opportunity. We've seen some companies come and go, but Google maps is what people are already using on smartphones," Harket said, adding that the maps app will be free at launch on iOS and Android.<|endoftext|>DURHAM, N.C. -- Clemson players gathered around quarterback Deshaun Watson as he sat on a bench waiting for his name to be called in the Orange Bowl. They were worried. Watson was worried -- a lot. - -The quarterback was nervous and scared, he told his teammates -- anxious not to let the opposing team win the game, worried that his teammate was going to get hurt or worse. - -It didn't happen. But to Watson, it was just one of two games in his life where things went terribly wrong for him. - -"I had to go through what he went through to get back to where I was," Watson said. "The fact that I was even playing as good as I was for the majority of this time says a lot." - -Watson threw a game-winning 35-yard Hail Mary to end the game as Clemson beat Florida State 38-35 for the national title Thursday night. Watson went 31-for-40 for 385 yards and four touchdowns. - -Watson then had to walk off the field and get checked for a concussion after he threw a deep pass to Mike Williams with under two minutes left. No one knew if he took a hit. - -"But I got back in the huddle and I tried to just go in and go to work," Watson said. "That was the first time I had ever stepped on the field like that. I was just happy to get back out there and play." - -Watson, whose father passed away when he was only 7, had a chance to win it himself. He finished 12 of 22 with four touchdowns. Clemson's offense was dominant throughout and ran for a school-record 565 yards. - -For one game, Watson has been able to play. He was not at 100 percent in Thursday night's game. The Tigers still won. - -"He's playing good football," Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said. "But I can guarantee you that had he not been hurt, Deshaun would have tried as hard as he possibly could to help win this game." - -Watson, who set an Orange Bowl record in 2013 when he passed for a school-record 458 yards in a loss to Alabama, was the only senior on Clemson's roster. With his mother, he had been at a standstill after the death of his -======================================== SAMPLE 116 ======================================== -When an Israeli military commando was killed recently in Gaza, the U.S. went from saying it would not take sides until the issue of Palestinian rights was settled to offering up a robust defense, including its own "indirect" support by providing Israel with ammunition. - -"We are deeply concerned about human rights violations and want our governments to have the chance to do more than just take statements at the United Nations Security Council," said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki at a briefing in London on May 31, referring to the U.N. Human Rights Council. - -Asked if Israel's assault on Gaza was justified, Ms. Psaki said the U.S. condemns all violence and is committed to a peaceful two-state solution. "We are committed to the ability of Palestinians and Israelis to live side-by-side in peace and security," she said. - -The statement was issued after Israel's military struck Gaza last week in response to a barrage of rocket attacks launched from the enclave by the Islamist movement Hamas—an assertion dismissed by the militants who have fought back with a wave of suicide bombings. - -The Palestinian death toll so far rose to at least 1,049—a majority of them civilians—according to Gaza Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Kidra. - -Israeli military said at least two Israeli soldiers were killed in the operation in Gaza. One of them, 16-year-old U.S.-born volunteer Gila Cohen, was killed by shrapnel to the head after an explosive device blew up nearby. Ms. Cohen was the only American citizen killed in the conflict, the Pentagon said. - -In an interview published in The Guardian and several other publications on Monday, Ms. Psaki said Mr. Cohen was a volunteer, paid for with a civilian government grant. "This was an American, a U.S.-trained volunteer, who was part of our efforts to train foreign nationals to serve in the Israeli Defense Forces," she said. "He did not receive any direct assistance from the United States, and he was not funded by U.S. taxpayers." - -Ms. Psaki also criticized the Hamas rocket attacks for spreading anti-American sentiment. "We have a long-standing, strong commitment to the security of our Palestinian citizens and we think that's a very important aspect of any kind of dialogue," she said. - -It was Mr. Cohen's death—first reported by Israel's Ynet daily—that triggered U.S. condemnation. The State Department on Tuesday called his killing "tragic and unacceptable," demanding that the "Hamas terror organization immediately halt such attacks." - -Ms. Psaki also spoke out against the rocket attacks launched from Gaza. "Rocket fire that spreads across this borders and puts innocent civilians in harm's way does not have a place, and any party to these conflicts must respect the sanctity of civilians, including the civilian population who make up the Gaza population, and must prevent those individuals…who use civilian populations as human shields, as part of Hamas' efforts, and who are directly and indirectly funded by Hamas to use human shields," Ms. Psaki said. - -Ms. Psaki said the U.S. stands by Israel's "right to defend themselves, to protect themselves, to protect their security, to protect their very, very legitimate right" to go after the Hamas movement. - -The Pentagon responded, again, with a stern rebuff. - -"This is a complex situation, this is a complex issue," said Capt. Jeff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman. "We would point out that the United States, the State Department, the U.N., the European Union all make very strong statements about human rights. And we believe it's important for us to make clear that this is a human rights issue. It's not an Arab-Israeli issue." - -For Israel, the question of whether the rocket attacks are legitimate or illegal has become a matter of national security rather than a humanitarian concern. - -Israeli security officials are bracing for more rocket attacks from Hamas despite the loss of some senior members of the movement, including senior operative Samir Kuntar. - -Last spring, there was a brief flare-up of tensions between Israel and Hamas—the two sides agreed to a ceasefire in April and launched a 10-day operation aimed to cleanse militant militants from Gaza. - -After taking full control of the Gaza Strip, Netanyahu has said Israel will continue to strike at its enemies—not only Hamas but also Palestinian political leaders who are supportive of the Hamas movement in West Bank. - -—James Marson<|endoftext|>Get politics updates directly to your inbox Subscribe Thank you for subscribing See our privacy notice Could not subscribe, try again later Invalid Email - -A Tory activist who said "I don't approve of gay marriage" has been removed from a Tory-organised debate about marriage equality. - -The unnamed man said he was not a member of Conservative Campaign Headquarters and had been selected to speak by a third party group. - -======================================== SAMPLE 117 ======================================== -Frozen is not a Disney/Pixar movie, it is a Disney animated movie from Pixar. - -Here I am, the person who hates it, writing about it. The movie that so many people hate. It's the polarizing movie everyone rages about even though it's just a good movie from what I've seen. It's the movie everyone says should come out and it hasn't. - -Disney/Pixar knows that people like Frozen. But they don't want to make a sequel, because they like the first one and don't want to disappoint it's fans. So, Frozen 2 was always going to be a way off. And so, there was no way in hell I'm writing about this movie. - -However, this movie was one of the most polarizing movies I've seen in my life, so my girlfriend and I decided to watch it a few weeks ago after she read my hate guide to it (it's the only one written by me after all.) We are fans of the movie, but we've also watched the worst Disney movies to get into the right mindset for Frozen. And there is ONE thing that we learned from that movie… - -1. Don't hate the movie until it's released and you're getting tickets to it anyways - -When Elsa was originally revealed as the Princess Elsa of Arendelle it was greeted with a lot of excitement. People said how funny it would be and how she'd be even better than the first one. - -But then a few weeks after it came out, the movie was released! Well, almost. It never happened. It seems to have been delayed by some kind of legal trouble, but the movie ended up being delayed on the Disney schedule anyway and was finally released in the UK for a limited time before being quickly pushed to other countries like the US and Canada. - -But that was the movie… Until now. - -We watched the movie at a friend's house and I was the first one to say we shouldn't hate it. I mean, we probably weren't expecting that much of it by any means, but we have seen so many poor Disney movies and this was a decent movie from where they left it. Elsa is a lot of fun to watch. She is the Princess we all know and love and she makes the best ice queen I've seen. - -But we didn't hate the movie until we went to go see it and we saw the new trailer. And the thing is, the trailer was just a preview of the movie and it doesn't change anything or say anything that changes that you saw in the movie. That's not to say I think the trailer is bad, I think the trailer is pretty solid, but I do want to change something. For whatever reason. - -I just want to change something about it. Like… I want to change Elsa's name to Ice Queen. I think Elsa's name is boring. Her name makes sense when you read the book, but if you go on the internet to read about this movie it doesn't. Ice Queen is a much cooler name. - -This petition is to change it, by popular request. If we get enough signatures we'll get the petition on the official site for the movie and see where it goes from there.<|endoftext|>TODAY'S COMIC: The Lazy Wizard and the Bored Wizard - -I'm looking at a stack of old school comic books, where we have Wizard Lazy Wizard, Bored Wizard, and others. Wizards would read these books and become bored, so then they would have to put the books down, and would eventually find a new book to read to keep the boredom at bay. Then the Wizard Lazy Wizard would pick it up and read it over and over again until finally that stupid Wizard Bored Wizard would have to quit in frustration. It's hilarious. Enjoy! - -I want to thank everyone who took the time out of their day and made this a wonderful day to be an artist! There were so many people that were involved in helping making this comic a success from all of you. Also thank you for all of the encouragement and support all of you gave on social media to the whole process of making this comic. We could never get as far as we did without you guys making the comics so much fun! - -Till next time!!!<|endoftext|>For more than two decades, the National Rifle Association has been the voice of gun owners, advocates, and activists. It has used its power and influence to lobby for reasonable reforms that would strengthen safety standards and protect public health, as well as to promote responsible and responsible ownership of firearms. - -In this respect, the NRA has been an essential part of the American debate. It took a stand against gun control early in the century, when the first attempt was made to ban military-style rifles. It resisted and fought back on several fronts against efforts to impose a gun licensing and registration act in the 1980s and '90s. - -But today -======================================== SAMPLE 118 ======================================== -A few miles south of the village of Varese, Italy, is the village of Largo (pronounced "Largo," as in the sound a largo makes). With approximately 600 residents, Largo feels a little more like a small city in Europe than a rural village – in fact, the locals make it sound like a great city. At least, a quaint city of one – the city is home to four churches and two schools, and is the hometown of two famous actors – Giovanni Rigano and Antonio Maffei. - -In recent past, Largo's residents were a mix of Italian residents coming to Varese to live, as well as English and Italian speakers from Northamptonshire, Scotland and Scotland. With the town's location along a narrow, winding road (as most are in central Italy), Varese was also known as the city of angels; according to legend, if you crossed the Largo River into Varese, on your death you would still be in heaven. - -Since about the early 20th century, however, the church in Varese has been experiencing some growing pains because of the town's low population and low tax base – not a good combination, in many ways. Now, there's a battle raging between the residents of Largo, those of the neighboring town of Bologna, and the village of Bologna. - -To make a long story short, when Bologna built a new library back in 1998-99, it decided to renovate the structure without consulting the residents of Bologna. In response, Largo residents – who had no idea about the plans to move in – protested, leading to a series of clashes between the two towns that culminated in a brief war back in 2009. Now, the residents of Largo are trying to prevent the demolition of their church, which has been home to the church since 1927. If the fight against the church continues it could result in the permanent relocation of Bologna's entire church population to Largo (even though the people of Bologna have already moved to new homes elsewhere). - -To make matters even more complicated, the two churches have different types of architecture. Largo's is more Gothic than Bologna's, and it's the more ornate of the two. - -I've met with a local resident of Largo and I asked her if she thinks Bologna will be forced to relocate. Her reply: "No, it will be fine." - -But here's the thing: Even if Bologna gets the green light to move its entire population to Largo, Largo will still maintain an independent community. Why? Well, because Bologna is still a huge town with a population of close to 40,000, and it will still have to pay the taxes of their many (many!) residents. - -I asked the local citizen of Largo if this is what's called a "dividing line of death" – i.e., a town that's split from itself between its population living inside and outside. Her response: "Not so much. Even the residents of Bologna will pay for the upkeep and will continue to pay taxes to Largo." - -This is also the sentiment I got from a local resident of Bologna; a man named Roberto De Gregorio tells me, "The new Library of Bologna will close the gates to the rest of Largo for two weeks so that people can come here and enjoy and know that this is their town too. If we are forced of course, we will leave for Largo in the morning. The new Library of Bologna also proposes to bring in a new bus service to Bologna to help us get around between the two towns – although at present the new Library does not connect them." - -Still, there is still the possibility that they will eventually have to move because someone somewhere in Bologna wants to move out, but they hope this problem will be solved at the very least. - -There's also the question of the financial impact of the newLibrary. Although Bologna did not have to pay for the development costs related to the new library, they do have to pay for a portion of the maintenance and upkeep. Will Bologna simply be left holding the bag? Will they be forced to make up lost revenue due to a higher cost, or will the newLibrary provide enough additional revenue to absorb the increased maintenance costs? - -Ultimately, it's very hard for me to answer these questions… but for now, I can say that I think the best thing for both towns would be if this issue could be resolved quickly without any major injuries. - -To help you make your decision, I've put together this infographic that summarizes the differences between the two communities and why one seems to be in a better position than the other. - -If you would like more information on the differences between the two communities or could find another way to contact -======================================== SAMPLE 119 ======================================== -I was asked to attend the DICE 2013 keynote, and being an avid fan of Battlefield and the Battlefield franchise, it seemed like a perfect opportunity. The event was held in Hollywood, CA and I decided to watch and learn as much as I could, just in case something big happened. Unfortunately, the keynote didn't go my way. This is my review of the keynote. - -Battlefield Hardline – The Call of Duty of Video Games - -The Battlefield series has always excelled at storytelling. It has been a mainstay in the series for many years. In the latest installment of the Battlefield franchise, all that is left in the game to be described as pure fantasy. - -The story is more about the game that it is about the story. This is why the game is so much different from the previous installments. The characters that the player starts off with are a bit fleshed out, and I think it will be necessary for someone who is in the game for the first time to understand what exactly is going on. From the beginning, the story feels like it is a bit shallow, and can be confusing when you first start out. - -This is a big problem when it comes to storytelling in video games. It can be easy to get caught up in the game itself and forget the story. The most frustrating thing, however, is that if you do not play the game, you cannot see the game as a whole. So, when you do play the game, there is no way for you to appreciate the story. Not the story, certainly, but the story as a whole. - -The game is about cops and criminals in the city. I am not really sure how the game handles crime, but it is pretty obvious that criminals are bad, yet law enforcement officers seem to have a problem with crime as well. I think a lot of the story is based on the fact that law enforcement officers are so used to solving crimes that they are overconfident when they are trying to stop someone. - -After playing the game for a little bit, I learned that it seems more like a cop drama, where you get to watch them go up against criminals who have all sorts of weapons, weapons that law enforcement officers are not used to encountering in the real world. - -Overall, I was not really impressed. It's a lot of story, but it is a cop drama, which can be frustrating when the game itself is not so interesting. The only things I liked about the story was the portrayal of the police officers and the characters that we see in the game, that had more depth than what we have seen before in a video game. There are times when I felt like it could have been better, but the game is really what is important. The game is just a part of the story. It may not be the whole story, but it is a cool part of the story. Overall, it was a bit disappointing to see a game that is based on one franchise completely forget about the other franchise during such a big event. - -Battlefield 3 – The Ultimate Multiplayer Experience - -Before I start talking about the story, let's talk about the multiplayer experience. With its new features, it has been a major push to increase the realism of the gameplay. A lot of people were disappointed about the Battlefield 3 multiplayer, so I am sure that they had lots of questions about its features. - -I am going to give you my quick take on the game. - -I will start with the guns. Yes, I know there are a lot of people here, like me, that will argue against the use of those machines, but they are the main weapon on the battlefield. I have had many a gunfight where I have pulled the trigger over and over again and it was never really a good result. There is a limit to how fast you can go, and you can only have so many guns on you. But, if you were able to learn and exploit those limitations, it is possible for you to pull off a really good gunfight. - -I was talking about the guns on a different point, but the game does bring back a lot of the weapons from Battlefield 2 and even BF1. The game features a wide selection of weapons to choose from, and some weapons have been given new weapons. But, there is a limit. It is not really about how you kill someone, but how you use that weapon. Just like we talked about with the story, it seems like when the story is told, it tends to focus much more on the action and not the story. - -The game, if it is a shooter, is not something that should be compared to Battlefield Hardline, as it is trying to do something new with its gameplay options. I did feel that this game could have gone a lot further in the simulation mode. One of the biggest issues is when you reload, you must have the correct magazine, or you are in trouble. The gun has to be balanced perfectly before firing again, -======================================== SAMPLE 120 ======================================== -Penguins winger Phil Kessel spent about an hour with reporters Wednesday morning in Toronto. You can have the entire thing here. - -He spoke about the trade of Sidney Crosby to the Pittsburgh Penguins, and his goals for the season. - -His one-line answer on whether he has any interest in returning (to the Maple Leafs, of course) was that he hasn't made a decision yet. - -"I've got some work to do this summer and I want to be better than I have been this year and I want to be a better player.

But new research adds to the recent evidence that women are losing the battle of the sexes. - -A big increase in cohabiting and unwed mothers, more single women than ever before, women who work part time, a trend toward co-habitation, and the emergence of "second marriages" in which a newly single woman partners up with an older man have all created challenges for women. In particular, more and more single women are living apart from their spouses — often a source of resentment for mothers. - -This raises all kinds of issues for divorced women, who may have to contend with their ex-spouses' living arrangements and the divorce papers they will inevitably file. - -"A lot of women want to believe that they are at the pinnacle of their careers and careers are what matters in the end, whether you are divorced or not," noted Dr. Rebecca Campbell, senior research associate at the American Association of University Women, which conducted the study. "But our research shows that it is also true that they feel they are a victim in a way that men do not." - -A survey released last fall found that 62 percent of couples interviewed thought they did not feel "completely at ease" being the primary financial decision-maker in the lives of their partners. About 70 percent had been upset that their current partner's financial planning had taken precedence over theirs in the divorce proceedings. - -Advertisement Continue reading the main story - -Couples reported feeling resentful.

In this blog post we look at one of the best-known fairy tales from the 13th century: Léon the Lion-friend. With illustrations from an illuminated manuscript of Saint-Céline's Chronicle of the Lives of the Saints, and an examination of how this tale relates to a lion-man and his life, we'll start to see the meaning of the lion-man in this tale. - -What is a Lion-man? - -The term 'lion-man' has become popular in the past few years with people who want to understand the traditional conception of a lion. Many people have a bad reputation about being rude to tourists because of people calling them 'lion-men'. We're not saying people shouldn't call themselves lion-men but when you come to Scotland, you should learn to act properly! Instead of looking down upon the locals and being rude, why not go and see how they are in reality? - -So why did Léon want to become a lion man? According to Saint-Céline's Chronicle he was made a 'honest knight' at the age of five from his father, and lived as a hermit at Saint-Marcel. This makes him one of the oldest lion-men known to have lived in Europe. In fact as the oldest living lion-man in Britain, he is often called 'the Last Lion-man' due to the fact that he was thought to have died a century ago. - -What makes a lion-man? - -While many modern lion-men would fall under the category of 'brave' or 'good-hearted', the term 'lion-man' is a much wider term, and encompasses everything from the famous King Arthur character, to an elephant wearing a man's suit, to a lion with human body and soul. - -A lion's lion-man has a lion's strength, wisdom and courage; his mind is a lion's, his body is lion's, his spirit is lion's; his mind is a lion's, his heart is a lion's, his soul is lion's and his body is lion's. ~ St Célestine's Chronicle (1530) - -In Scotland, the lion-man is almost always portrayed as having a tail instead of a mane. This has caused a lot of confusion about what a lion-man does, and more importantly is often misinterpreted by tourists as a real living Lion-man. - -What is a Lion-man's life like? - -Lion-man lives a very nomadic life, moving from place to place as needed. This is also where the term 'lion-man' falls under the broad category of being seen as a 'lion-man' by tourists when he lives nomadically for a period of time. Although he is considered a lion-man for his strength, wisdom and courage, the life of the lion-man can be quite similar to other wild animals, living on the edge of survival where survival is everything. - -Lion-man is very cautious about strangers. He does not approach strangers directly, and generally avoids the area where other lions may live. He does approach strangers if the situation is a bit too dangerous (such as a predator or a flood). In those types of situations 'lion-man' will move away from the confrontation, avoiding being hurt or killed. - -Why does lion-man exist? - -Lion-man has a unique place in popular culture. There are lots of stories about lion-mans going out into a forest in dangerous situations to protect children. There have also been stories of lions being seen 'coming to aid' (usually in the form of a woman on a broomstick), often in the form of a mother-lion (pictured here). - -There are two types of lion-person that can be found in the folk-tale. The first is the more common lion-man, while the second could be considered a hybrid beast. - -The first is generally the lion-person we are used to seeing onscreen. The stories usually have the lion-man helping a father, mother or a daughter, and in the story of St. Césaire, he even helped a man who was drowning, before he could be drowned as well. - -The lion-man in these stories has a certain character that often makes him stand out from other characters, like St. Césaire's father or the 'Lion-clowns' from the film. These stories often have quite a strong moral message which could be very hard for people to hear. One such story is the story about the young child, who was left alone in the forest of Fosse, only to discover the forest was full of lions, which were 'looking after their family'. -======================================== SAMPLE 122 ======================================== -"It was the time of the week we were looking forward to, so we decided to try and go to the park. - -"The security staff were very attentive and went way out of their way to ensure we had a safe trip." - -Tina, who lives in New York with her family, bought her first roller coaster when she was two, but she says the experience at the park was a very different one. - -She told local radio station WABC that one of the rides "smacked her down on the way down and she's in a fetal position." - -The woman suffered a back injury and a broken nose as she fell to the ground. - -"I was thinking to myself that a roller coaster is like any roller coaster - it goes from high to low," Tina said, "and in this one I was falling and you just feel so powerless and you don't know what's going to hit you." - -READ MORE: 'Falling' lady left with broken nose and leg after being 'smacked' by roller coaster at Disneyland park - -An ambulance had to be called to the scene and the woman was treated at an emergency hospital before being released. - -In a statement, The Walt Disney Company confirmed that it was not operating the ride at the time. - -"An early morning maintenance team was on scene and it has since been closed for proper inspection," the statement read.

A lot of people with ADHD are self-help gurus as part of their jobs — so people with ADHD can easily become experts in their own self-improvements. But, I don't think a lot of people know about the fact that Dreyfuss is a chronic sufferer of ADHD himself. I didn't either. It's something I didn't expect until I started writing about it. - - -I like to think of myself as an honest-to-goodness, average human being and, after all, I've been through some terrible things (including being assaulted and hospitalized), so maybe I'm an example to myself. The same goes for Dreyfuss, according to Dreyfuss' website: - -I have ADHD. For most of my life, that has been very tough to understand… But as I grew up, the diagnosis of my ADHD didn't seem that relevant. I didn't need people to tell me it was a problem. It was a problem that only got worse when I tried to manage it myself. - -What was Dreyfuss thinking when he was working on this book about having his ADHD? I was surprised by a couple of answers. The first: - -"I felt as though I were being judged. I was worried about how I'd be perceived by people, particularly my friends and family, if I spoke to them openly about my brain, my ADD, and how I was still having the same problems. - -And, - -"I think I was terrified of the stigma: the fear that I was going to turn to alcohol (and/or drugs) in order to ease my symptoms and keep the symptoms at bay. - -How could I even live life with anxiety, depression, ADHD, anxiety, paranoia, and fear of my own brain? For me, that life was unbearable. I knew one day I'd need to leave that life behind. - -The second: - -I was angry that my symptoms weren't a blessing but a curse. How could they be a curse if I didn't know it? If I didn't have a mental health problem? If I wasn't a burden to the people around me? If they were merely symptoms of a life I didn't want to live? - -I wanted to know how I could change my own life, not because I wanted to change my symptoms (because I knew those symptoms would only get worse… when I began to manage them on my own), but because I wanted help learning to manage them. - -Dreyfuss' book also gives some examples of those that seem to respond well to cognitive-behavioral therapy. - - -Here, for example, is how Dreyfuss describes a client he worked with at a rehab clinic who had a high-functioning diagnosis but struggled with ADHD. On the outside Dreyfuss describes his client as shy and "an introvert." "I would see the client as a kind of quiet, timid soul that needed to be brought out of a shell of self-consciousness," he writes. "She didn't talk to people; she was so absorbed. -======================================== SAMPLE 123 ======================================== -In May 1996, then-California Governor Pete Wilson announced his intention to set up a $6 million study in Oakland, California on the question of whether or not the Oakland school district was using its police to harass or intimidate its students with the aim of preventing students from wearing black face. "I'm concerned for the safety and protection of our students and the community," Wilson told the Oakland press. "We want to make sure everything within the district is following federal law, and we also want to make sure things don't escalate." - -The Oakland City Council quickly approved the study, and in June the study began. In September the study released its results: Of the approximately 5,800 children with which they monitored disciplinary hearings, 6.7 percent were accused of engaging in behaviors that were offensive. Of those incidents, 6.5 percent were deemed "disrespectful," 7.9 percent were deemed "disrespectful but not offensive" and 9.2 percent were deemed "suspect." - -Wilson was not satisfied. "What we're finding is a little bit unsettling for our community and my wife, because I think the findings paint a picture of us in a very bad light. And they paint a picture of us that we wish we weren't," he told reporters in July 1997. "The findings don't appear to include any reference of 'racial profiling.' In general we're finding a very low number of students, and those students, we're finding that they happen to be black." "If you really look around there, our community is probably the most racially diverse in the United States." - -But if most of Wilson's "studies" were conducted at the most racially diverse school district in the United States with the fewest black students, is such a situation really that uncommon? - -The answer is not a firm "yes," for a number of reasons. - -The Oakland study was not a true experiment, and the fact that a study of racial harassment is necessary for the study itself was never stated. Even though the study was advertised as "scientific," Wilson insisted that, "If we were finding that a certain percentage of kids were engaging in behaviors that violated the guidelines that were in the guidelines—they were offensive acts and they were threatening—it would not necessarily qualify and lead me to do what I did." - -The study also was not random, and the only students who appear to have been randomly selected were those most likely to exhibit harassment. Only 25 percent of the students who interacted with police are black, but the study's sampling was limited based on the assumption that such students would be the most likely to be harassed. - -The result that black students are disproportionately targeted for abuse by the police is not a "surprising" conclusion to observers in the African American community. - -Black students in Oakland are six times more likely to be victims of physical and/or sexual discrimination by Oakland's police than white students. In the most recent academic year, Black students had a rate of 15.8 harassment incidents per 1,000 students—three times the rate for White students. According to the most recent report by the Oakland Police Department, there were 1,972 cases of crime against people from Black and other communities. Of those 1,972 incidents, Black victims experienced an incidence rate of 449.2 incidents per 1,000 African Americans, a rate nearly three times that of White people, a rate that was twice the rate for Asian communities and four times the rate for Latinos in Oakland. - -A "surprising" finding at best. - -The racial profiling of Oakland police is not a new phenomenon. In January 2002, police in Oakland were accused of violating the civil rights of 16 Black youths by beating them so badly, one of them died. The victim, 17-year-old Darrick Walker, was arrested for allegedly being in possession of a stolen car. After being brought before an Oakland judge, Walker was put in the front seat of a police van. As the van drove down Market Street, Walker had to endure multiple assaults on his back and sides, including one kick to his head and a head butt, leaving him unconscious. When the van arrived at the police station, he was taken to the hospital in critical condition, where he died as a result of complications from the beating. - -In an interview with CBS San Francisco reporter Mike Wallace, Officer Robert Rizzuti said he was "a little hurt" by the criticism his actions might seem like racial profiling. In that statement, he confirmed that he punched, kicked and threw the boy out of the police van because he "looked at [Rizzuti] in a certain manner, and he couldn't control this person who was looking in different and different directions." - -For a study to be considered legitimate, we had to prove that it had the same validity as the other "studies." This is a dubious criterion for evaluating serious research, much less a study that is published in the New England Journal of Medicine, which had a -======================================== SAMPLE 124 ======================================== -"These are the kinds of programs that have to be in place for the long-term sustainability of schools and their student outcomes," Smith said.

It is a beautiful time to be a soccer fan in America and for a lot of people, watching Neymar dribble, bend, and shoot is something like a dream come true. Many in soccer-crazed Europe are wondering just how in the world a guy known for winning every competition there could be playing in the World Cup for South America. - -Not only could such comparisons be made, but a player like Neymar could bring a new dimension to the game for American soccer fans. Neymar's ability to shoot with his left foot is one that is sure to be a part of the game even if he is the player playing for Brazil. - -American soccer fans also need to keep in mind that Neymar is 21 years old, thus a bit older than most American soccer players. If I had to pick a player who could revolutionize the game in the U.S., I would pick Neymar. - -The U.S. is always going to have a large contingent of soccer-loving fans, like they did during the early 1990's. There are certain players (Chad Barrett) who bring an aura to a game that makes the game accessible for fans even if they don't support the team. There will always be a segment that will watch soccer and that part won't grow any smaller. With that said, there will always be the people who are always searching for a new way to watch the game, whether it is through technology, television, or a way to watch soccer with their favorite people. - -It is not that I haven't heard or seen any American fans argue about the merits of Neymar. There are a couple of points I thought about while writing this article, which I want to add to the conversation: - -Some people want to watch Neymar play because of his reputation, whereas other people think playing for Brazil is better; some people want to watch Neymar play because he can bring something new and exciting to the game; and some people think playing for Neymar is better because Neymar likes playing for Brazil. - -All of these people have valid viewpoints, but one thing that is worth considering is how Neymar feels: Neymar plays for Brazil; Neymar wants to play for Brazil. What motivates a player to play for a team in which they don't really believe in? It's more than just being motivated by money (for better or worse). The U.S. is not going to have a problem paying Neymar (more on that in a minute.) That being said, it wouldn't be a surprise if Neymar decided to play for an MLS team because he wants to help the team reach greater heights. Some people would love to see them reach the final and make history as the first U.S. team to go all the way, but some would love to see them in the tournament. - -"If Neymar does not play for Brazil, I don't believe he will enjoy any of the joys of an English Premier League club." - -I am willing to bet that if there's one thing that keeps him up at night, it isn't Neymar's decision to stay or go to Brazil for the World Cup. It is Neymar's decision to play for Brazil. If he decides to play for Brazil, then yes, he will have to enjoy playing for an English Premier League team like Arsenal. Will he be a happy camper? Probably. Will he want to play for the USA on TV and for the other games throughout the World Cup? Probably no. - -Here's an interesting point for you: Did you see the video of the last goal that Neymar scored against England? I didn't either, because it seemed so impossible to score in such a difficult environment. I wonder if the team is getting worried about whether or not Neymar will be able to play when the next World Cup rolls around? - -There is also the possibility that the team isn't sure whether or not Neymar would be comfortable with a team that plays a similar style to the one in which he has spent his entire career. Many Americans don't realize that many players, especially those in the U.S. Men's National Team have left the team because it didn't fit their style of play. A guy like Eddie Johnson, who has been playing soccer his entire life but is not a natural striker, left the national team to play a more attacking style of soccer. He was successful. What will happen if Neymar decides to play for an American-style team with a different style of play? There is a good chance that he would be comfortable with that team, if only for the goal -======================================== SAMPLE 125 ======================================== -BOULDER, Colo. — The University of Colorado says an online class offered with its College of Social Sciences and Humanities in April failed to meet the standards it has established to monitor its online classes. - -"Colorado's online program has failed to meet University of Colorado standards," said university spokesman Ryan Huff.

There's the debut EP, the new music video, and a video from the band members. They also have an album coming out (not by Tame Impala, but with Warner Brothers/Universal) about a man who gets lost on his way to work. - -The man he travels with is an angelic dude named James Ford, who is an artist, composer and visual artist who lives in California. In my mind, it's one of his best videos—and the one I saw when it debuted on my iPad last week—since his 2011 video "Dreams Come True" that featured John Cusack. - -Ford's video, which was directed by his friend Jason Zada, sees Ford walk along a beach and through the streets of Southern California while looking confused about how he ended up there when he wakes up. He has a camera attached to his head that tracks the movements of his head to create this surrealistic video. He has a few close-ups, but he mostly relies on the movement of his own face to create these looks of confusion and disorientation. - -The song is called "Let It Happen," and it features the same producer at the helm as on "Dreams Come True," Mark Ronson. While his work on that song is on a similar level, his songwriting can be so much more interesting, since they come from the perspective of many other emotions. - -The way I saw it, Ford wrote the song after he read a story about James Ford, who has a severe head injury that kept him from working. He was also the lead singer of a band that broke up. In the story, he starts walking around and starts to get lost and he is then shown through the eyes of a camera that he was using. The song starts to unfold and we watch as this guy keeps searching for where he is and is searching for his family. - -Eventually, Ford has "let it happen," as he says in the song. It's a song about how we can let what happened happen and can find happiness in it, with the help of a friend. It's also just such a good piece of sound. This new song with Ronson is a great combination of the two, with the electronic textures, the piano in the background and the music and synth tones to the vocals. It's a great song because it reminds me of "Wonderwall" and the new song is also just a wonderful piece of music to listen to when you're traveling on your own or have no idea of where you are. - -It helps give the album an even more upbeat feel without sounding too uptight. Ford did some research on how James Ford's wife, Jill, has been able to get out of the house and make it out of the city to meet people who are willing to help her. That's where Ford came up with the idea for the song. - -"Let It Happen" is a good time, a great song, and a fun intro for the Tame Impala album. You can hear more of it soon.<|endoftext|>The last-minute decision to bring forward the final game of the home-and-away season to Saturday has not been greeted with universal relief by the opposition. - -The Brisbane Lions, who were without their first-choice backline, conceded six unanswered goals in a 30-point win over the Sydney Swans at the Gabba, their eighth of the season. - -The final score would have been enough to win by 25 points with the match finished in a draw.<|endoftext|>Saskatoon cops say a 12-year-old girl was shot and killed Monday night around 6:30 p.m. at a house on the 900 block of -======================================== SAMPLE 127 ======================================== -A woman in California is suing the US state for allegedly forcing her to buy health insurance covering abortions, for which the state has not yet been found capable, because the federal healthcare system is overwhelmed with demand. - -The case could spark a court challenge to the Affordable Care Act's requirement that everyone must buy "comprehensive" health insurance policy or pay a penalty until the law's repeal by 2017, legal experts say. - -The lawsuit, to be heard Thursday, was filed by the unnamed plaintiff with the San Diego County Superior Court. The complaint says that the law forces the woman to pay for coverage for elective abortions, including in-vitro fertilization and sex-selection abortions, and for abortions performed because of the woman's gender or race. - -SPONSORED - -"The US government is effectively forcing California women to violate the principle of informed consent," the complaint reads. - -The complaint also alleges that Planned Parenthood does not provide "informed consent" for patients seeking abortions, and that the woman knew that the insurance policy required her to buy abortion coverage when she registered for a state-run healthcare insurance exchange. - -Planned Parenthood said in a statement that the suit should be dismissed on technicalities, asserting that it is not a health insurance plan but a separate entity exempt from the Affordable Care Act. - -But lawyers with the American Civil Liberties Union agreed that California's law, dubbed the Women's Right to Know Act, should be declared unconstitutional, and urged the state to repeal it before it risks setting a precedent that could force more states to follow suit. - -"This is the first lawsuit we can think of that deals specifically with, in a state's case, a health plan as a kind of health plan and then requiring women to buy it if they have a pre-existing condition," said Anthony Daines, a staff attorney for the ACLU's Reproductive Freedom Project. - -California's law took effect last year, and the lawsuit cites cases where other states have tried to get around Obamacare's requirements for everyone to buy health insurance, only to be struck down. - -"This is not an issue about abortion insurance but about a mandate by the California legislature that the law be enforced," said ACLU lawyer Shannon Minter. - -"We have to have the ability to ensure that women are treated properly, and that that takes care of their overall health insurance, and that in those circumstances that women are told what kinds of health care they can have access to and that they can't be discriminated against. That's what this law is about." - -California's law requires health insurance plans to cover all medical procedures, even if they were not mandated by federal law. It also requires that they charge the same rate regardless of the patient's gender. - -The law was approved by voters in November, but abortion rights supporters vowed to fight it in court before its implementation unless it was challenged as unconstitutional. - -(Reporting by Alex Dobuzinskis in Los Angeles, Editing by Cynthia Johnston and Sandra Maler)<|endoftext|>In 2014, the United States was the only Western country with a higher rate of youth suicide than Germany, the EU average, according to the United Nations. - -The UNICEF figures, compiled in the latest edition of its Global Report Card on Child Well-Being, show a 10 percentage increase in rates of suicide between 1999 and 2014 in the US, from 9.1 to 10.6 per 100,000 children aged between 0 and 14. The European average was 6.6 suicide per 100,000 aged 5-14, which puts the US well above the EU average and other developed countries from the US. - -But there was big variation between regions, with a 10 percentage increase in the rate of suicides amongst people aged 15-54 in the US, from 4.2 to 5.3, compared to 5 per 100,000 in Canada, 6.3 per 100,000 in England and Wales, 7.1 in Sweden and 10.9 in Finland. - -The authors point out that suicide can affect people of all ages, making it more likely that a large proportion of the increase in suicidal behaviour in the US is from suicide among children under the age of 25. - -In addition, they note that the US is one of just four countries where the incidence of suicidal thoughts among children between the ages of 12 and 24 has increased between 2000 and 2014, and the other three are South Africa, Thailand and Zimbabwe. - -"We know from the past that countries with high adolescent suicide rates like the US and the UK are generally less successful at reaching the targets set by the United Nations," said Susan Hockstein, the lead author of the report. "It is critical to look closely at suicide in all its forms, including young people's thoughts and feelings and act as an important reminder to all governments to take actions at the policy, sector and health-policy levels to tackle them." - -Suicide, in general, is the third leading cause of death among young people aged 10 to -======================================== SAMPLE 128 ======================================== -"The truth is there's just one way the world works, and it's not how we'd like it to work," says the character of Dredd. - -Well, there is a way to find out the way is different and it's not by reading a bunch of books on the internet and then coming to this one website, or reading The New York Times, and then going, "Oohh, I like this movie. I really think this is the best way to do this." - -It might be to take a look at the film. - -The film takes about ten hours to watch on video. (Though it doesn't have the same kind of overlong movie that, say, The Matrix does.) But on top of all that is the fact that when you start a game, if you want to do that, your character gets stuck in a level. So how do we avoid that scenario? Well, in the film, Dredd is stuck in a level because he's on parole. But not all levels are like this. The film shows us a very detailed version of a level, which is called a mission. It's made up of five missions, and each one is kind of a puzzle in itself. So if we're going to solve the mission we need to know what the puzzle is. It would've been nice if that level had been at least somewhat open. - -The film also shows us other types of levels. And one of them is one called The Pit, and, I remember watching it with Dredd and talking about it. In this mission you're moving two barrels by shooting them. So you move your barrel, and then you shoot your first barrel to move your barrel one place. And then you do it again. If you do it all five times, it'll move one way, three places, and four places. You have to stop this at five places and you can do it all five times. It's really simple. But it took me 30 seconds to figure out how to do it. And that took me a while to figure out. - -You get more information by watching it, but if you want to get a little bit more you can read Dredd's character's memoir. Which is called The World's Final Solution. If you read that, it'll explain how this city came to be at the center of everything. It will explain how it got its name, The World. Because for a while, one city was the center of the world, and then it got divided, and they decided the rest should just get out somewhere else. This isn't a film where anything is explained in an hour and a half, but it is very clear. - -So, if somebody wants to know how the world works, it won't take you that long. You don't have to read anything. All you have to do is sit down and watch. - -[Note: For the record, I'm an English major. I've been taking a computer graphics class called "Animation Technology" in college, which is like a really good class, but it's not exactly film history, so I feel free not to compare anything to The World's Final Solution, or The Matrix, or any other of the other films about The World.]<|endoftext|>From Baka-Tsuki - -Opening Narration [ edit ] - -"No matter how you look at it, they are still humans.

For instance, if they have a special character ability that takes effect once a certain move hits or if they have the Power Up card, I can take advantage of that by having another character attack their weaker character to take out their weaker character for free. This isn't always a great strategy, but is always great when it's a good one. - -So what's a good strategy? This is what I'm interested in the most. We see this all the time in fighting games. When a character attacks (or blocks) the opponent, they'll move in one direction or the other (most of the time). The player tries to figure out what their opponent is going to do in that particular move, and then attacks them accordingly. Since so much of the time these moves are predictable, players will often go for a character who does a lot of these attacks. This allows them to have a lot of options, and thus a lot of success in matches. - -This is all about the timing of that move, and there are a few key things to keep in mind. First, you must play with your timing. You can always do your character with the most efficient timing for the move, but there is a lot, lot more to it than just that. In this case, you need to think at a much deeper level. Let's say your opponent uses an attack during blockstring. A lot of times, you see characters block in a particular order. This means they are putting their opponent in situations that have a decent chance of success. They block the attack then block a similar attack. This means the attack that was blocked is almost certain to be your opponent's next move, which is great for you. - -However, if they use this same attack again, you could block that next attack and block something else, then start throwing blocks the other way because you still block in the same order from previous blocks. But this attack could be so good, that you don't worry. When your opponent blocks the first time, they will be looking for a way to make your block-throw order useless in the future so that you can simply block again. If it's too good for them, you might block a different attack, throw a block in between, and then block it again before they ever start throwing a normal block. Then you block the second attack, do a throw, get a block in between, throw that one, and then throw the next one for another throw block. When both attacks end with a throw, they'll switch from blocking to throw before the end of the attack, letting you get out of the way. When the throw block is blocked, you can continue to use the throw block and only the throw will block it. - -So what about the player's actions? First it's important to understand how they interact with the other. When one player blocks a move, it means not every action is done by that character. In this case it's possible to hit the block string with a throw because the opponent can't make a throw block of their own, but you can always block a throw as well for the same reasons. Let's say you block the special move and then block a throw. If your opponent blocks the special move then again then throws a block in-between, they will be blocking with you, the defender, but they will also be blocking the move so you can get a throw block. So now you're being blocked by your opponent. You can do a normal block and then use a throw. This will allow you to prevent your opponent from being hit, but your opponent can also use their throw to get to you. Since your opponent will always be blocking an action, they could always block a different move and avoid the throw block because they don't have the throw block to stop the move. I'll get into the timing of the special and throw attacks later in the guide, but let's look at this in more detail. - -If you block an attack, then throw an attack, your opponent will block that move. Your opponent might not block that move since that move wasn't very good, and the next attack will hit them while they're blocked, giving you some control over what your opponent chooses to do. If they block all three, then you will be able to get an extra throw block which will allow you to be safe from the special move the entire round while being able to get that extra throw block. When all the special moves are blocked, your opponent will still be blocking at the top of the screen, but now they won't be blocking the attack (as in, all the rest of the special moves are blocked). If you block all three special moves then your opponent will still be blocking the attack, but each special is blocked separately and you will still be able to get a throw block. After the special moves are blocked, you will need to throw another throw -======================================== SAMPLE 131 ======================================== -The White House is offering an olive branch to North Korea today, as part of an effort to convince the country to abandon its nuclear ambitions in favor of a negotiated end to the nuclear crisis it has been locked in for years. - -The North was warned yesterday that the White House was open to talks — but only after Pyongyang's next round of weapons testing expires in December. - -But the White House's latest offering, which is being called a "roadmap," was immediately branded a "tactical retreat" by the North. - -In a statement released by North Korea's news agency Korea Central News Agency, Pyongyang said the White House had "abandoned its policy of engagement and negotiation" with Kim Jong Un's regime. - -Kim blamed the South for setting "a destructive course that seriously jeopardizes the peace on the Korean peninsula and the peace and security of the nations in the region by igniting a military confrontation." - -"The United States should not make any mistake that is allowed to provoke a war by reckless provocation of the nuclear issue," Kim said. - -Kim said the United States had to halt its provocations immediately as "the time of opening a new front in a nuclear and missile confrontation had come." He called the new White House policy "a U.S. imperialists' policy of war." - -Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson have been making a concerted push to restart stalled negotiations over North Korea's stalled nuclear program, in an effort to avoid that situation escalating into an all-out war. - -North Korea conducted five nuclear tests in 2016 and has been threatening to go nuclear before a ruling party congress later this month, though experts agree it can't yet miniaturize a nuclear warhead sufficiently for it to be deployed on a missile. - -The U.S. and South Korea, as well other nations in the region, have been considering a new round of U.N. sanctions for years, but have yet to implement them. North Korea has responded in kind by launching dozens of missiles off its coasts — in defiance of U.N. pressure to stop its weapons program. - -Kim's statement on North Korea appeared to give credence to those who argued the most effective way to change North Korea's behavior would be through economic pressure. - -President Trump tweeted Friday that the United States and China are working on "a plan to solve the North Korea problem." - -But even as the White House pushes for a deal, a key U.S. military assessment of North Korea's nuclear and missile capabilities has come under increased scrutiny. - -The Pentagon's report this week concluded that only two North Korean strategic bombers could pose a threat to the United States, while the other four could be used to launch a nuclear strike against the United States and its allies. - -White House spokesman Sean Spicer has rejected the assessments, saying the White House has "no reason" to doubt the Pentagon's assessments. - -Pyongyang's nuclear weapons program has long been a major concern in Washington and has fueled concern on Capitol Hill that a miscalculation could spark a global conflagration. - -U.S. officials have repeatedly warned Pyongyang that it would face serious consequences if it threatens to use a nuclear bomb against the United States or its allies. Even so, North Korea repeatedly insists it needs a nuclear capability to counter what it says are U.S. nuclear encroachments near its territory. - -"We are not seeking war, we are not seeking confrontation," President Trump told reporters during his Asia tour this week. "We are not looking to the worst. But the best thing we can do is get along with the rest of the world and let them solve the problem." - -In recent years the White House has taken a harder line on North Korea, taking a harder line with China and taking a firmer line with North Korea's neighbors, Japan, South Korea and Russia.<|endoftext|>It's probably not news that most of the world's populations now live in cities, for the biggest chunk of the world's population is concentrated in cities. - -A look at some of the world's leading cities by housing density puts the issue in context. - -In the above map, density in units per km² (which takes into account the urban structure but omits the size of the city) is listed along the horizontal axis to indicate the number of residents living in each city, and the number of square kilometers within each city taken along the vertical axis to signify the land area.

Many of our readers share the same opinion; we are well aware of the impact of ASD on people, but there are those who want to see us silenced. - -What they do not realize is that, in a court and out of court, the parents and guardians of people with ASD have the legal right to present their best case. It is the responsibility of the court system to present the facts against every argument put forth by the parents and guardians to the judge; this is the ultimate evaluation of the children for their development. These are not merely facts about the children, but facts about a person's character, and whether or not it should be taken into consideration in deciding whether or not autism is to be treated as a disability when a person qualifies. - -This is a very personal and extremely dangerous game to play with children. Autism is a mental illness that affects every aspect of their lives — not just behavior but personality and emotions all throughout. Children with ASD are no different from anyone else, but are more frequently diagnosed under the same umbrella label than any other. - -Not only do some children have ASD because of severe brain impairment, but these same children have other conditions also contributing to the diagnosis of ASD. It happens to a child every day. A child will be diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder for behaviors associated with autism, even if they have the same diagnosis — as a parent, it's your responsibility to look after these children like you would any other child. - -Let's consider a real life example. A few years ago, a mother came to us saying, "I have a 9-year-old autistic son. I would love some help. I have had difficulty with him ever since he started preschool at 3 years old." - -Here is what I told her. - -"Dear Ms. Smith, Please do not be angry at other parents in our community who do not like your treatment of your son. They are using their right to raise the issue without your consent because they do not understand how you raise your son. He did start preschool when he was 3 years old and is completely on target. The diagnosis that many other kids with ASD get is more likely to be a result of lack of insight than anything related to autism. As such, it would be a disservice to him and to all of us with autism if you kept your son's diagnosis out of court. When you go to court, ask the judge to consider the information put forth by you and the children you have raised." - -What's next for this case? - -The mother has no choice but to continue to pursue a lawsuit. Her son has not been diagnosed as having ASD. As he grows, he is going to be diagnosed with Autism. In the end, the diagnosis will be correct, but it has been used against her. This was just one mother who contacted us. There are thousands who do not understand how they can be held responsible for raising their children. This case is far from over. Your role is clear; you must advocate on behalf of every child with ASD, and do everything in your power to protect your son's rights. - -I hope this has been helpful and informative. I can also tell you that I had a son who was diagnosed with ASD. I felt I let him down and the diagnosis was damaging both mentally and emotionally. My son is not here anymore, no longer alive. I can only imagine what a terrible thing that is, and am thankful I never had to experience it. - -My advice is to educate yourself about the diagnosis of ADHD, and how it affects children, the parents and the court. It is a crucial time for autistic families of any age, and for all people. The future of the future of our country, and the future of our children, depends on our ability to protect them. This is not easy work, and there are many hurdles, but we must ensure that everyone is aware of the risks, and that the needs of their children are always considered. - -If you would like more information on how you can protect and educate your child about the potential dangers of being labeled as autistic, there is now a free webinar to help you get started.

It's supposed to be a way for lawmakers to give "legislation that will better protect men from being unfairly charged with rape or other sexual assault." - -And what could possibly be wrong with this? If men get charged with rape and then exonerated, can't they get a lot of money from the courts? Sure, if men get paid and convicted of rape too often, we should give them some money, right? - -Well, not so fast, feminists. - -The bill in question allows men to sue women who have been raped, in the same way that they can sue men who have allegedly impregnated that woman. - -"If there's an allegation that a woman was raped by a man, and the man goes to court and has his day in court, the man can seek money from that woman for damages," Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) stated on the House floor in early November. - -This, of course, is a gross injustice. It's not only a violation of the Equal Rights Amendment of the Constitution, it's also an attack on the Constitution itself. - -Here's what the Constitution says: - -Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. - -This means that men and women may, under certain circumstances, sue one another for damages. These circumstances can be as general as a woman is accused of adultery, or as specific as if a man was beaten by a wife. - -The problem with the bill is that it doesn't go after rapists. It goes after women who have been raped, and it gives the accused no rights at all. It says, "If a man says you raped him, he can get money from you, but you can't do anything about it." - -That is completely ridiculous. Women do get raped sometimes, although this is largely due to men failing to use condoms. If your husband has been abusing you, even if he has a condom, you can still stop unwanted intercourse — you just have to talk to a legal lawyer and make sure you have an agreement in place. - -There have been a small number of cases of women getting raped in cases in which both partners were drunk — the legal line between consensual and nonconsensual sex can be blurred. It remains a problem that is most often blamed on guys who can't resist. - -Advertisement - -Still, women are not protected by laws like the "Mens Rights" bill. In one lawsuit, former Stanford swimmer Brock Turner was convicted of three felonies, all stemming from his attack on an unconscious and intoxicated woman outside of a fraternity party. Though a jury only sentenced him to six months in jail, he was only given five, because prosecutors recommended a longer sentence for the felony sexual assault charge that would have carried a maximum of 14 years in prison. - -This is not at all what the U.S. Supreme Court says should happen in rape cases. In 1989, the Supreme Court's landmark ruling in Turner v. Turner established that "clear and convincing evidence" is required to prove that a person has been raped. - -The problem with this is that, in cases such as Turner v. Turner, there really isn't any proof about the guilt of either party. They never had sex and could have stopped after a few moments, even in the worst, most drunken circumstances imaginable. - -The high court has, for decades, required "clear and convincing evidence" in rape cases, which is very specific.

Let's begin with the new set of cards coming in a few days. - -Frenzied Goblin – 5/6 - -Ravaged Gourmet has been revealed as a common. It may be a cute little goblin, but he really doesn't do too much for us. He doesn't pump our army, he doesn't draw us extra cards, and he doesn't even trigger our Goblin Welder. What's more, one can only activate him on their first turn. So, I guess there's a place for him in a mono-green mill deck. - -Nettle Drone – 4/4 - -Another common has been revealed, and he's no slouch. His ability triggers when any creature you control would deal damage to a player. Since these are creatures that deal damage to players, it makes sense that these two new commons will get used in mill decks as well. - -Mortivore's Best Friend – 4/2 - -A 3/1 is not impressive, but it's not bad either. The downside for this minion is that he has an ability that's limited to only creatures that block that player. Still, a good creature for mill decks. - -Boulderfist Ogre – 5/6 - -A 6/6 is a lot to pay, but this thing can get it done. Like our goblin, he doesn't really draw us cards, but he does take damage. There is one major downside that comes with any 6/6 creature: he is unable to block creatures that have trample. And, with most mills now featuring Trample, he's not going to be on our side. Nevertheless, he's a threat every turn he stays in play. A 3/5 for 5 is still a decent card and, like Frenzied Goblin, will be useful -======================================== SAMPLE 135 ======================================== -The "No More Heroes Project" that started by GigaOm in 2005 is already over. - -This year, the project was closed and GigaOm closed down its website that was hosting a collection of fan-made projects, including games, animated films, and other projects. - -The creator of the project GigaOm, a company called Visceral, sent their condolences to the people who worked on it over the years. - -"I have known and loved a few of the staff over the years, and I can say this: the No More Heroes team was the biggest family of creative minds I have ever been a part of, and our friendship has been irrevocably changed. It has been a blessing, a curse, an amazing time. You will forever be in my heart," the company wrote in a statement. - -The project had a number of developers including Alex Proyas and Brian Martel. - -Other notable games that participated include the "GTA: San Andreas", "Mafia II": A City Live", "Massachusetts SIS," "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 1," "Portal 2," "Half-Life 2: Lost Coast," "Halo: Reach" and "Final Fantasy XIII." Games like "Dirt 3: Resurrection," "Battlefield 3," "Mafia 2: Assassin's Edition" were also released. - -The developer said that some creators of the project "had an incredible life ahead of them, and some unfortunately did not make it."<|endoftext|>A report released over the weekend in the Chicago Tribune reveals how the city of Chicago spent millions on a private criminal defense law firm to represent accused Chicago police officer Jason Van Dyke in a case that led the federal government to launch a civil rights investigation into use of force by Chicago police. - -The Chicago Tribune reports that from 2014 to 2016, the city spent on average $2.5 million every year on a private law firm "that has worked to protect public employees" from possible discrimination suits. Most of that money went to one law firm — the Chicago firm of Covington & Burling — which was founded in 1871 and counts former U.S. Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, Attorney General Eric Holder and current Secretary of State John Kerry among its clients. - -In addition, the Tribune reports that Van Dyke's legal team had a salary of $350,000 per year and was paid $2 million by the city, up to $2 million for overtime, and that Van Dyke had paid an additional $300,000 to the Chicago firm of Pomerantz & O'Connell. - -The Tribune notes: - -The lawsuit filed Jan. 5, 2016 in U.S. District Court in Chicago alleges that Van Dyke unlawfully shot a 24-year-old in a wheelchair — a man who appeared to be complying with Van Dyke when the officer opened fire and killed him — with a Taser in 2014. Van Dyke claims the Taser malfunctioned and the man was shot by police with his own gun, the lawsuit alleges. - -The Tribune reports that a judge in Cook County Circuit Court, which hears wrongful-death lawsuits, is weighing whether Van Dyke can be tried separately from the lawsuit filed by the family of Laquan McDonald, the black teenager fatally shot by the black officer in 2015. - -In an interview over the weekend, Chicago-based civil rights attorney Craig Futterman described Van Dyke's legal team as "the tip of the iceberg — not the full iceberg." He added that he "can't think of any other situation where you would have a private law firm fighting a lawsuit and representing the city." - -As reported by The Daily Caller News Foundation earlier this year, both the FBI and U.S Department of Justice have launched investigations into the practices of the Chicago Police Department and are seeking to figure out "whether Chicago police are violating the Constitution with regards to their use of deadly force." - -Aaron McKinney contributed to this report.<|endoftext|>For more than two centuries, people have wondered what's at the bottom of Lake Erie. - -Now, with a new robotic submarine, you'll finally find out. - -The ROV-II, or remotely operated vehicle I or ROV II, is being prepared for its first field test in the Cleveland area, the U.S. Department of the Navy announced Wednesday. - -The ROV-II is an exosuit that's designed so that it can be launched and retrieved by an underwater mine or an autonomous underwater vehicle. (The technology, developed by researchers at UMass Amherst and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, is also being used by the U.S. Marines for search and rescue.) It has a battery life of around 15 hours and can survive in water depths of up to 500 feet. - -The ROV II will come from underwater mine defense systems company R3D. The government will pay R3D approximately $3 million to develop and deploy -======================================== SAMPLE 136 ======================================== - -"You'd have to be blind not to see the similarities." - -That was the verdict of a former state trooper whose recent article, "I Can't Hear My Nausea" and its response from Taser International (TASER for short), sparked debate and debate about both. - -"It was very simple," said Steve Hirschhorn, author of "I Can't Hear My Nausea: A Former State Trooper's Story of PTSD, Mental Illness, Taser, and Politics." - -"This was a problem that could have easily been fixed. Tasers use one of the most effective and nonlethal weapons to incapacitate a person. They're very precise. However, there's another way of incapacitating people – one that uses pain, fear, and trauma to incapacitate them." - -The company has taken heat for the use of a chemical agent that can cause temporary paralysis and even death when deployed inappropriately, according to Hirschhorn's article. - -His article focused on a 2013 incident involving New York State Trooper Anthony Bologna, who was hit by pepper spray while trying to arrest an elderly woman because she refused to stop using a walker while sitting in her car. - -The woman, who Hirschhorn referred to as "Mary," had been in New York City the week before the confrontation, where she was found mentally unfit to get on a subway. That prompted law enforcement officials to find her a hotel room and give her a night-stand to use as a bed, where they then realized she was still acting erratically. - -Mary refused to get off her walker after being hit with the pepper spray. - -Bologna, who had already lost his hearing and nose, was sprayed in the face a second time and began vomiting. He was placed into a spinal immobilization belt. - -He wasn't breathing on his own – his helmet was off due to the pepper spray – and was in cardiac arrest. He was rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was declared brain dead after being declared brain-dead, according to the New York Post. - -Tasers in the hands of trained officers "can be effective," Hirschhorn conceded, but "they may not be effective enough, and that seems to be something that this case illustrates." - -Hirschhorn is no stranger to litigation himself. In 2014, he sued the state of Massachusetts for failing to provide a sufficient level for public servants to rest while they were on duty. - -"Our system is set up so that if you are on the road and you stop, you do not have a rest stop. There is no way to stop," the chief judge of Massachusetts Federal District Court William H. Pauley Jr., wrote at the time. "That is why the statute makes no provision for such a stop." - -This article previously stated the state of Rhode Island had banned the purchase and use of Tasers by law enforcement. The Rhode Island State Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<|endoftext|>This year will mark the 100th anniversary of the first successful manned launch of men on the International Space Station (ISS) by Soviet cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko in April 1963. - -Kornienko was a legendary Russian fighter pilot who came to Earth on November 7, 1944, from a place known as the Soviet Union (USSR) in his fighter plane known as Tupolev Tu-16. He became a hero in Russia because of his achievements with the Sukhoi Su-6 and was awarded the Hero of the Soviet Union medal. - -Kornienko is known for his remarkable achievement that he managed to fly from the planet Earth to Mars in one orbit for a distance of about 3,600 km. - -His remarkable feat is described in the book, '100 Years – A Journey to the Moon and Back – by Yuri Gagarin and Alan Bean', published in 1959. - -"For an extraordinary spaceflight, he left the Earth almost four times more frequently than it returned. He arrived at the Red Planet in a record four-day space crossing, and left in a rocket three weeks later." - -On his flight from Earth to Mars Kornienko was accompanied by Yuri Gagarin. Kornienko had previously done another remarkable flight in the early hours of July 12,1953, from the planet Earth to Venus, the first space flight by a human which went for an incredible distance of more than 25,000 km. He was the only man to fly into outer space and back as a passenger. - -NASA has selected Kornienko for the first ever human return to the Moon. However, it will be a bit different for him than it was with Gagarin. - -Unlike Soviet space travel, U.S. space exploration is completely funded by the public sector with the assistance of private industries and commercial enterprises. - -However, American human spaceflight is no picnic either.

Well, if you are so concerned about being used as a tool by the enemy, you might as well use that method to get to it yourself." - -"Ugh, fuck that guy. He's annoying." - -I heard Aya complaining as I walked with Ria. - -The two of us were currently inside the ship that had sunk. - -In the meantime, it had already taken quite a while for us to reach the location. - -"And we arrived." - -Laughing evilly, Aya called out as she took off her helmet. She was still wearing her helmet, but that mask was no longer floating. Her face had turned into a serious expression. - -"This, are you a goddess or something? What are these eyes of yours? And, you must be one too, right?" - -The girl that was standing there had beautiful silver hair that was waving in the wind. Her face looked quite sharp, but her eyes were also sharp. - -"If you are a goddess, then you should just let your guard down a little. Just because you are strong enough to defeat me, does not mean you are good at taking care of your own pride." - -When Aya said that, I looked over to the girl and thought over what she said. - -It certainly looked like a goddess. Her eyes were sharp, and she had white skin and a slender body. But I just couldn't understand. - -However, it does not matter. - -That's because this is an important fight. - -"You see, it is as you said, you have come here. Since you know us, then your strength should have increased. Because we come together to help others, we are comrades. This is how you should treat us as comrades, right?" - -"Uuu, really? Thank you very much." - -After that short talk, I was able to regain my strength, but not the confidence that I had before. I still felt bad at saying that I was a god. It seemed that the goddess just happened to feel the same way. - -In addition, she is really interesting. - -"Well then, shall we go back now?" - -"Yeah." - -After hearing me say that, she smiled. - -I did not have any confidence in my own strength. - -However, after coming to this world, it seemed like these two people were strong. - -They are probably stronger than me. - -After a short conversation, we returned to the town. At this rate, the search for other survivors should get easier. - -Although it was not as simple as it was in the past, the world was different. - -The people on the surface had weapons, and they wore armor. But unlike some games, all the monsters here were weak! - -"There are a lot of monsters over there. This place is dangerous, so we shouldn't go to the other side until the search for survivors is over." - -I said to Aya. - -"But I am tired. This is where I came. We have to search for survivors." - -"You are a girl, right? Aya. Aya, are you alright?" - -"It's fine. I am used to fighting a lot." - -While she was nodding to her sister, she answered my question by using her finger. - -I looked, but it seemed like Aya really was just like she looked. - -The armor that she was wearing was so light. It gave her a beautiful feel, and it was as if she was wearing nothing more than that. I couldn't even see her face well. It was almost like seeing her for the first time. - -And that look definitely did not mean that Aya was in pain. Rather, I thought it seemed rather refreshing. - -After I checked the time, I asked Aya about the quest. - -"There was a quest you were supposed to do, right? Tell me about it." - -Aya said with a refreshed face. - -"I was told that I should go to the forest in the south-west direction, and collect the monsters that are around it. If I do not follow that method, the monsters that are around might become stronger." - -"Ahh, that is right. Let's hurry up, Aya." - -After saying all that that she could, she disappeared from my view. - -The moment Aya disappeared, I was hit with a feeling that made me want to get down from the ship. I heard the voices of Aya. - -"That's right. You should go and fight. We will return after we save everyone on the boat." - -"It seems that it is the opposite of what you were told. Let's go to investigate first. It is going to -======================================== SAMPLE 138 ======================================== -"There's a lot of concern that it isn't good enough. The police need to be given the power of the purse," said Mike Thompson, a lawyer who represents the victims. - -"What's wrong with giving law enforcement the power in these types of cases? When the police do it right, it brings a feeling of security. And when they do it wrong, it's just another avenue for corruption or abuse." - -After the release of a series of undercover sting videos in 2009, police began carrying tasers, stun guns and police scanners. Mr. Thompson said the problem is that the police have become less accountable. - -He said he has seen hundreds of cases where victims said they had not been contacted by police or had charges dropped. - -"In this case, we've seen three people," Mr. Thompson said. "If the city wanted to address the needs of victims and to deter these crimes, it could do a lot to improve the way these crime scenes are handled." - -There are no reliable national data on police use of tasers. In Minnesota, which requires all officers on the road to carry them, tasers have helped reduce assaults by 38 percent in four years, according to statistics released by the state police. - -Photo - -The Justice Department is also looking at tasers and their potential for abuse — and it is considering whether to require departments with certain large groups to provide data on their use so that Congress can assess whether tasers and other devices are being properly deployed. - -Last year, the Justice Department's Office of Community Oriented Policing Services released a report that said in several cities with large numbers of black residents, black residents were disproportionately subjected to tased or other less-than-lethal force. The report came after a civil rights lawsuit in Baltimore in 2008 brought against police for its use of tasers in the city's Central Park area. - -"If law enforcement agencies aren't careful with the use of the Taser, it could have a disproportionate impact," Kenneth D. Wolfe Jr., the attorney for the plaintiffs in the Baltimore civil rights lawsuit, said in an interview. - -Newsletter Sign Up Continue reading the main story Please verify you're not a robot by clicking the box.

"They cannot be putting their hands on people unnecessarily." - -Advertisement Continue reading the main story - -The American Civil Liberties Union has opposed the use of tasers, saying they can cause the same sort of pain and suffering as other devices. They are also prone to jamming and have the potential to paralyze people, said the group's general counsel, Christopher J. Dunn. - -The taser's inventor, Dr. Robert J. Heirens of the University of North Dakota, found that stun guns made officers more calm by decreasing the likelihood of a person reaching for something, which leads them to retreat quickly. But some of Dr. Heirens's research studies have been criticized because of methodological flaws that could lead to an unintended increase in use, or a decrease if officers are instructed to avoid using it. - -"Heirens taser is much more of a blunt instrument than the electric stun gun," said John R. Lumpkin, who was a University of North Dakota professor until last fall when he left the university to become director of the state's Office of Policy and Research, which oversees tasers. - -Dr. Lumpkin recalled his studies in which he was told officers would have to take control of situations when trying to subdue a violent suspect by using a taser. "That has to be done by trained officers with the appropriate training and the appropriate training," he said. - -Mr. Thompson, the lawyer, said that in his 13 years practicing law, he had seen many of the taser cases that his clients had filed. He had yet to see a taser use that he deemed justified. - -He was among the lawyers who helped set off the 2010 case, and says that when he first heard of it, he thought it was an isolated situation. "We got together and looked into it one by one, and all we did was take it a step further and say this is what's going on," Mr. Thompson said. "It becomes apparent that this is a pattern." - -Last year, after the Justice Department released a report on the Baltimore case, Mr. Thompson said he thought -======================================== SAMPLE 139 ======================================== -I have an issue where the user can only use the mouse in a specific manner, but not with the arrow keys, such that it appears to be a keyboard issue. This is most pronounced when a user wants to use the up, down, left, right, enter, backspace, backspace, home, delete keys with the arrow keys instead of the mouse. - - -I have been using a Dell laptop with the following configuration (which should be standard on most): - - --Windows 7 Home Premium 64bits - --Intel Core M 5Y30 - --8 GB RAM - --1TB HDD - --Dell Wireless Keyboard with Bluetooth - --Dell Wireless Mouse with Bluetooth - - -This is a common configuration on all laptops sold to the general public today. As far as I can tell, this is the only configuration where I can't use the arrow keys with my mouse. And this seems to be a common problem with the keyboard, and not a specific problem with the mouse. I have verified this for both Dell and Microsoft systems. - - -In Windows 7, at the point where I was able to use the arrow keys with the mouse, there appeared a little mouse cursor over the left thumbpad, which I used by default to click. But at the point where I was able to use the arrow keys with the mouse, the cursor was gone. I have tried rebooting, and this issue appears to be in effect even before rebooting. - - -I have noticed this issue in other recent versions of Windows as well, including Windows 10. I tried all kinds of fixes on both my Dell and Microsoft machines that seemed to temporarily fix the issue. I still get the same problem when using my mouse to click, and can't reliably use keyboard commands with the keyboard. For example, clicking the left mouse button on my mouse still seems to bring up the Windows key and the option to right-click. - - -I'm trying to use my mouse to select text, but it will only select text within 10 lines of the current selection if the cursor is on the left side of the text when I type the letter. Other times the selection appears within the existing selection. I tried everything I can think of on both my Dell and Microsoft machines with little or no success, on both systems. No other solutions seem to work either. Is there anything I can look for here? Anyone else know of anything? - -Microsoft is working on these issues. - -If you are experiencing these problems, the following steps can help you. Please follow all the steps carefully. - - -NOTE: I have also used a Dell Wireless Mouse and Windows 10 Home which seems to work fine with the mouse. - - -Step 1: Check to make sure the driver is working correctly. If it isn't, then you will need to add the driver manually. - - -Step 2: Find out if you are using the Windows Media Player or Windows Media Center service. Check to make sure that the service is not started (by pressing the Windows key and R and navigating to Control Panel > Services). If the service is running, then you may not need to do anything to enable it. - - -Step 3: If you are using the Windows Media Player service, go to Services\Windows Media Player > Service Status in Control Panel > Services to see if service is started or not. If it has not started, and it is still not started, then you may need to do a service restart. Start Menu > Run > Services.exe /stop > Restart. - - -Step 4: If you have selected Windows Media Center Service option in the previous step, you need to disable it to make sure all of your software correctly registers with Windows. You can search the web or do a search on your local computer for "disable Windows Media Player service" to find the proper procedure. - - -This is a general solution, but some people can get around the issue via a process of elimination.

They have been a part of Australia's culture since long before it was formed. - -In the last ten years alone, a new generation of Aboriginal people have rekindled Aboriginal pride and passion for national unity and sovereignty. Their generation is challenging assumptions about Aboriginal heritage and who they are as a people. - -Here are three young Aboriginal people from around Australia who are leading the charge today. - -Kenny Kopera (aka "Ringo") - -Kenny Kopera is a young Aboriginal man living in Queensland's Mackay region. This is his story. - -His parents were from the Kimberley, an area that was the subject of fierce resistance to Australian colonization. Kopera's parents and his five siblings were uprooted and uprooted again, when his father and three siblings moved back to the Kimberley. Kopera's mother was unable to afford the journey home, so she remained in North Queensland and found work in the goldfields in Mackay. - -With his Aboriginal identity under threat, Kopera made the courageous decision to study history. He discovered that the European experience began many years before European arrival. He then had a profound sense of loss knowing that while his forebears were the first Indigenous Australians, his own people who had struggled to survive here for countless generations, had already vanished. - -He has spent much of his life in opposition to colonial injustice. While pursuing a degree in Indigenous arts and culture at University of Queensland he stood up to Queensland Government representatives and won over support for an Aboriginal-only education program. Then, at University in Sydney, he created a national forum for Indigenous artists, youth, writers and performers and launched a website to create safe spaces for Aboriginal Australians. - -Last year while performing, he was the first Aboriginal performer to be nominated by the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts in a lifetime achievement award. - -This self-confessed young warrior is the only man to have stood up to Prime Minister Tony Abbott and Premier Gladys Berejiklian, protesting against the loss of traditional Australian ways and languages including: - -Racism - -Families, communities and language - -Traditional medicine and spirituality - -Language and culture - -Racism Aboriginal Australia has lost over 40% of our languages. Only 1 million of the 3 million Indigenous languages still continue to be spoken. And that is just one example of Australia's profound loss. - -"I don't want my culture lost to 'them'. I want my culture to exist in Australia," says Kenny Kopera. - -Kopera and his young band have been involved in community-building projects; creating an Aboriginal-only beach at the University of Sydney to inspire and inspire young people. In 2016, they built an Aboriginal-only water feature at a beach in New South Wales. And, recently in April this year, they made headlines with their plans to build an Aboriginal-only memorial park in Sydney to commemorate the death of a local farmer, John Henry Bantu. - -For Kopera the fight is long but he is on a mission. In an age where Indigenous people are disappearing at a horrific rate there are few people with his determination and desire to continue to fight. He has created a Facebook group called Aboriginal Land, Sea and People. It's an open, inclusive and non-hierarchical platform for sharing information and talking about Aboriginal issues. - -Kenny says: - -I'm trying to bring together people who don't necessarily speak the same languages or go in the same communities. The only reason I'm doing this is to bring all of our tribes together… We all want to live as equal citizens. - -We asked Kenny for 10 words or terms that describe the Aboriginal culture. - -"Indigenous Australians love their land. They really love the earth. They really love family. They're spiritual. They love their ancestors." - -Aboriginal music is an important part of the Indigenous culture. A lot of it comes from a spiritual centre at Port Augusta in Western Australia. The music of The Grange of Kula continues on. An Aboriginal man named Rohan's music is as beautiful as it is powerful. When he plays his drum, it sends shivers through people's souls and tears tear-filled faces. - -His band is based out of Port Arthur and their album "Red Earth" was a huge success on the festival circuit. He says: - -We got to the festival circuit and played a lot more shows. In 2008 I got invited to play in Perth at the Red Hill music festival. I was on a plane at the airport and the people on the plane were all on their phones, checking things on their phones. I couldn't believe that most people -======================================== SAMPLE 141 ======================================== -Spencer Platt/Getty Images President Donald Trump had harsh words for Democrats on Twitter Tuesday morning, blasting a "basket of idiots" and saying they didn't "want the US to be strong." - -It was an unusually strong rebuke from Trump, who normally prefers to tiptoe around politics on social media and rarely goes after his political rivals, much less Democrats. - -The president's tweet came just before 3 p.m., just minutes before FBI Director James Comey was scheduled to appear before the Senate Intelligence Committee about his decision to write his blockbuster "discovery" letter to Congress less than two weeks before the election. - -Trump followed up his tweet about Democrats with a warning: "If this story gets covered evenly, in 12 days I will have told you why I fired #FakeDossierGuy." - -Trump had been angered earlier Tuesday by reports that his team was told in the spring that the Russians had information on his then-rival, Hillary Clinton, that could damage her candidacy. The dossier later turned up on a computer owned by former British spy Christopher Steele, who was retained in January 2016 by a Washington-based political research firm, Fusion GPS. - -Trump had been told last summer that the Russians had amassed dirt on Clinton in a large-scalped dossier compiled by a former British intelligence officer - which was given by sources to FBI officials last spring - that contained specific allegations about the Democrat and her role in a uranium deal. - -But Trump had been reluctant to acknowledge publicly, much less with a dossier, that Russia had dug up such material because doing so might have damaged his prospects for persuading a foreign government to curtail its meddling in the democratic process. - -Trump and the Russia saga has been a recurring theme of much of Trump's first year in office, particularly in interviews and interviews with Fox News. In March, the president accused former President Barack Obama of wiretapping Trump Tower and tweeted that Obama has "been smoking WAPO since January 20th." - - -Tuesday's tweets appeared to be Trump's latest attempt to focus attention on the Russia scandal, and on his own political standing. It came just after former Vice President Joe Biden told CNN that Trump's tweets about Comey, which have included a series of threats against the FBI director, may have an effect on his administration's effort to move the country to the left. - -"The tweets may hurt his relationship with the FBI, and may in fact be damaging to our ability to work with the FBI," Biden said.

While the Note5 has been in various hands-on demonstrations, the company just released a new image and a teaser for the device, and we've got everything you need to know. - -The device features a "5.9-inch QHD Super AMOLED display with a 2.5D curved edge-to-edge display" and a new dual-camera setup on the back. That dual camera setup is a pretty big deal—you may recognize it from earlier rumors—and Samsung hasn't said very much about it yet. The device's screen seems to have at least 1080p resolution across the entire 5.9-inch display, unlike previous Note handsets. - -It's rumored the device can pack at least a 3,200mAh battery, which would be enough for both a day of use and a good amount of use in standby. A quad-core processor was also leaked, although neither Samsung or LG have confirmed that it will make its way into the Note5. - -The devices come in five colors, with gold and blue versions of the device being the most likely at this point. - -We also know the Note5 will have a microSD card slot and support "sensor cluster" technology that can allow for hands-free camera control, so you might have to plug it in to take photos without a phone. And Samsung's included a 3.55mm headphone jack which can easily be plugged in to headphones. - -The Note5 will be officially announced on October 19 as the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 edge are now on sale. No word just yet on the Note5's price, so check out the teaser below. - -Source: Note5Leaks<|endoftext|>If you've never seen the original Star Wars movie, you don't know about the Force. Nowadays, it's a powerful thing with all the powers of life and death and it is also quite useful. You could say that the Force is one of the most important beings in the universe. It helps keep people safe, and it allows people to do things they would never consider for themselves. In the galaxy, you will encounter powerful Force wielders, but they are the exceptions and not the rule. Some of the weaker Jedi never got much of a reputation. The Star Wars universe is filled with people who can manipulate the Force as well as they see fit. In the case of this post, we will try to find a unique Jedi we can call our personal personal heroes, and the first Jedi we will introduce is named Mace Windu.. - -I had never been a huge fan of Star Wars. There's something about it that just doesn't do it for me, because they have just that little "it" factor. That little bit of nostalgia, it just…stinks. Not only that, every time someone goes to see a movie or TV show about it, we hear about the Star Wars saga again, and I just always felt like they did it wrong. It feels like there was just a big hole there. I was always interested with the idea of the Force, but never gave it the time to grow on me. I finally started watching Star Wars because there was a prequel, Rebels, and I found myself really liking the Jedi. However, the first Force user I encountered was a lot more interesting to me. - -When Darth Maul first appeared on screen he didn't look like much but he was just so freaking powerful. His power and technique just blew me away. He is a badass that you just have to see. For my part, I loved the Sith, that they are all powerful and evil, and even more so the dark side of the Force. It just appeals to my inner sadist. You know, everyone has a dark side, everyone hates, hates, hates everything, just…sad, dark, and all the rest. We all had to suffer from a dark side of the Force, a dark side of life that kept us away from happy times, so I always wondered why everyone hates the Sith so much. - -I've always wanted to talk about someone that is a Sith for life, a Darth for life. I wanted to try to build that kind of relationship. So, I started playing around with the Jedi and came up with some interesting choices for my characters. But I was never really satisfied with my choice. That's why I decided to go looking for an example in the Star Wars universe and I found it on one of my favorite characters of all time. He's so much more awesome than I ever imagined. - -Mace Windu is a member of the Jedi Order, but he's one of the lesser known ones in the Star Wars universe and this is why he was chosen as the first Jedi we will introduce in this post.

The cost of construction of the plant is estimated at about £900 million ($1.6 billion), including the cost of UK taxpayers' money for the project and the loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) worth €1.2 billion ($1.65 billion). - -The reactor will be located on the Northumberland coast around 12 miles south of the village of Sorek and at a depth of 20 meters. The first SMR prototype to be deployed is the EPR, which could potentially power about 6,600 homes, using 1,500 tons of spent fuel. It has a power-to-weight ratio of 9,633 kilowatts, which means that a single square meter of the reactor will convert the same power as 6,600 square meters of non-radioactive waste. The power density of the EPR is 857 kilowatts per cubic meter, while the SMR will be even more compact at 547 kilowatts per cubic meter. - -"We are now in the initial safety and technical assessment stage. At that stage, we will conduct an operational demonstration with the operator that will include the use of key equipment," Simon Fairweather, Executive Project Manager for Small Modular Reactor, Inc., told the World Nuclear Association (WNA). "We are confident that the safety and reliability of the SMR, combined with its cost benefits, will be a major driver to secure funding for the Sorek project." - -The initial demonstration will be conducted in 2018 and the plant is expected to be operational by 2023. Fairweather stated that the plant is in discussions with some nuclear utilities around the southern hemisphere (see Nuclear Energy in South America, below) in order to secure the financing. - -The Sorek nuclear plant will be located at the foot of the Hebrides' rocky shore and will house four pressurized salt water reactors (PSRs). The reactors are built for a low-fuel load-followability with high power densities. At full power, the PSRs can operate for about 10 years, delivering 20 MW of power and generating about 50 tons of plutonium-239 each year. The production (about 10 tons in a year) of plutonium-239 from the reactors provides the nuclear fuel for all of Britain's nuclear reactors. - -The plant will be a series of 12 reactors and is expected to cost £6 to £10 billion (US$9.6 to $13.8 billion). The price of the fuel for the first reactor is estimated at about $350/kg, which includes the electricity generated by the plant, about $400/kg for the fuel itself, $40/kg for the fabrication of the nuclear fuel, and the cost of the fuel rods themselves, and these costs are expected to come down through economies of scale, as the UK will have fewer of these plants. At full power, the cost of the fuel is expected to fall to $250/kg, with the electricity being reduced from about £15 to £11. - -The cost for decommissioning would be £400 million ($630 million) for each unit, and the UK has already committed to decommissioning the Fermi plant and the Rokkasho plant in Japan. The first reactor in the UK is already slated for removal after 2036. Sorek is already part of the EPR consortium that operates the nuclear reactors in Japan. - -"The potential for reducing the cost, time and risk of low-enriched uranium nuclear power, while providing power without greenhouse gases would be an enormous achievement for the UK, Europe and the rest of the world," said Michael Liebreich, Director of the Institute for Energy Studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. On the basis of the recent decommissioning of the Sorek plant, he said, decommissioning of the plants in France and Sweden could be expected to cost €40 billion ($55 billion) and €60 billion ($75 billion). "A SMR could achieve similar economies of scale," according to Liebreich. In addition to using "cleaner" fuel, a plant based on a modular design could also reduce the waste of fuel from the fuel rods themselves. - -The SMR has strong supporters in the US and Germany as well as the European Union, which has a target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions as well as energy dependence on fossil fuels. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) forecasts that nuclear power will remain the world's major electricity generator in 2040.

"However, the university has concluded that by the terms of the settlement agreement and the seriousness of the claims, this is the best resolution." - -The Aggies declined to comment on the settlement, but in a statement, Sumlin said: "I'm glad this is over. This is nothing a student could ever understand. I have loved working at A&M and can never thank my family, the University of Texas and all the great Aggie fans enough for everything. This university has been such an important part of my life to get to this point. I want to thank the school and my teammates, coaches, staff and friends for an unbelievable football journey. I look forward to the next challenge." - -The lawsuit, filed in May in U.S. District Court in San Antonio, alleged that a black male student received the minimum scholarship and that a white female student was not promoted to a position she was more qualified for despite better performance. That student also complained discrimination in receiving tickets to Aggies home games. - -Two white women also had to transfer to a school that was much closer to A&M, according to the suit. A third female student also complained of being passed over for a position she applied for even though she was a less-qualified candidate. - -The settlement, which will be reviewed by an appointed Special Master, addresses all claims but not one that is specifically linked to Sumlin, according to a statement from A&M. - -"This is an unfortunate and regrettable chapter in University of Texas Athletics history," Byrne said. - -The settlement will be paid directly out of the Aggies' budget and is expected to take effect in 90 days. - -The university and university officials "remain focused on educating the Aggie student-athletes and their families about the benefits of an education and career at Texas A&M" and on improving "coaching and recruiting processes," the university said in a written statement. - -Sumlin, who has been Aggies' head coach since January 2011, is the school's 18th head coach and fifth defensive coordinator. The university has announced 10 other coaches will not return for their third or fourth seasons. - -"Our hope is this will not represent a change in the overall culture of A&M and I know as coach Sumlin makes this transition into his new career that's the direction it won't be," athletic director DeLoss Dodds said in a statement. - -The university also said the University Act is still in law, a reference to the Texas Education Code. But in a statement to cleveland.com, Byrne said Sumlin, who has five years remaining on his contract, is no longer employed by the school and "he remains an Aggie and is actively involved in the Aggie family's programs." - -Texas A&M's interim director for human resources Steve Patterson, said this week the university has started internal reviews of how it handles allegations of discrimination. - -"The university must understand that its actions must be viewed in the context of larger institutional issues and systemic racism in our country," he said. - -Byrne added: "We acknowledge the work of the Special Master and believe we have made positive progress to this point. We are taking a different approach with next year's program. That is something we and our students will continue to work to improve over the next period of time." - -The suit claims the Aggies didn't take proactive measures to reduce racial diversity on their staffs, such as hiring more minority coaches or promoting female football staff members to their current roles. - -According to the university, about 8 percent of the university's coaches between 2001 — the year Sumlin was hired and the year the suit was filed — and 2014 were minority or women. They also noted that the Aggies have increased minority football coaches and promoted other minorities to full-time positions. - -Texas A&M did not offer specifics about it hiring of minorities on staffs. - -But the university did note that the Aggies hired a black woman coaching position on the defensive line a year ago after hiring seven male defensive line coaches, including former coach and defensive line coach Tosh Lupoi's son, in 2013. A&M also promoted women's assistant defensive backs coach Tracy Rocker in 2014. - -Sumlin, Byrne said, is "the right person to rebuild the Aggie Football program" and that he understands he did not hire all Aggies students and that there is "a lot of work ahead of us to better our football program." - -"We will continue to do our part to create more opportunities for our -======================================== SAMPLE 146 ======================================== -Image caption Mr Goh is the first in his family to go to university - -Chinese students are the biggest spenders in education in the world, according to the UN University Education Report. - -The report, published annually on Tuesday, shows the US, France and the UK are most well endowed, while China, with its huge pool of students, accounts for the world's biggest spending on education. - -The report also ranks university performance around the world, with the UK in 15th place - but only the second country after South Korea in terms of student numbers. - -But China's universities are struggling. - -The report, sponsored by UN schools and universities, is based on a survey of academics and experts from the world's leading higher education institutions.

The answer: not very much at all. The person said that in order to put nearly half the total freshwater on earth under the sea, there would have to be a drastic decrease in the amount of rain that falls on the surface each year. - -But this is unlikely to happen. - -Rain falling in California gets about 10% to 15% of its flow from subterranean sources each year, making it more than 50% renewable water, according to Peter Gleick, who runs the Pacific Institute's Institute of the Environment and Sustainability, which maintains a database of global freshwater reserves. - -The main issue, I said, is that for the oceans to be pumped full of freshwater, the ocean waters are going to have to be salty and acidic, which is bad news for some fish, plants, and birds. - -When the oceans turn salty over a long time period, that affects everything from marine life to animals that rely on currents and other ways to move around. - -"That's why the Earth's oceans have so little fresh water," Gleick said, "because you're not going to get it all at once." - -Still, we're going to have to solve two significant problems within five to 10 years on this scale. So let's explore each. - -• Is water too salty for humans to drink? - - -One big challenge we may face early on is figuring out how to get rid of salt, or at least significantly dilute it. - -According to one assessment, if the amount of water pumped into the oceans to raise sea level dropped by just 7cm in 20 years, it would take 6,000 years for the sea to rise another 10cm. - -If we want 10cm of sea level rise in a generation, that would mean about 5,000 cubic kilometres of freshwater would have to be stored annually. - -The world's existing large-scale storage facility for freshwater, Lake Mead, provides almost 10% of available freshwater. - -But at an estimated $1 per cubic metre, it would take at least $500bn (£314bn) of new storage to meet the challenge, Gleick said. - -• How will the world's food system react when there's less freshwater? - - -According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), some 2 billion people now depend on fish for about 60% of their dietary intake, mostly wild-caught tuna and other fish. - -But, Gleick said, at current rates of consumption growth, that figure is going to have to be halved in the next 25 years. - -And that is problematic. - -In the dry areas of the Pacific Ocean, fish farmers could see their fish become less abundant, he said. - -In the humid areas, the demand on the area's fish farms would rise, leading to further declines in biodiversity and even greater depletion of aquaculture fisheries. - -What all this really means, Gleick said, is that food systems around the world depend on a lot more freshwater than today. And we may run out of it early. - -In the United States, the US Department of Agriculture is working on a project to develop a new model of a viable aquaculture industry that will be based on freshwater and fish. - -But Gleick said there is a risk that if we don't get this right, aquaculture will simply become an even less efficient food source, leading to further cuts in fish and fish products.<|endoftext|>A man who allegedly threatened to kill Muslim girls in an anti-Muslim video has been given an eight-day sentence. - -Mohammed Iqbal Hussain, who is from Pakistan, appeared at Leeds Crown Court in West Yorkshire charged with two offences of using threatening words or behaviour. Mr Justice Lloyd Jones told the court the comments were "highly derogatory" towards Islam. Mr Hussain admitted making the video on January 30 - and appeared unshaven and wearing a tracksuit bottoms. The prosecutor said it was uploaded on Facebook and described it as anti-Muslim. In the video, he said he went to a mosque and watched some men there who "knew what was coming". He went on: "We will see the day when Muslims will know how to put on their shoes and their socks and how to take off their shoes. These men know the whole plan. You will see the day." There was no immediate reaction from the Muslim community. Mr Hussain then appeared to accuse Britain of "thousands of years" of "cultural imperialism" and "unilateral and double standards", when in reality he has the Muslim world's backing. - -Judge Lloyd Jones sentenced the 33-year-old to a minimum eight-day jail term, on top of two years' good behaviour as he imposed sentence. - -As Hussain was led to jail -======================================== SAMPLE 148 ======================================== -After a series of delays and an even more lengthy overhaul, the U.K. home secretary is inching closer to an appointment to replace Justice Michael Kirby. While some reports suggest that she's ready to recommend that he step down, that will be the last word on this particular mystery. The UK home secretary, Amber Rudd, does not have the power to name an individual to the U.K. Supreme Court by herself. When Parliament debates replacing Kirby with someone else, or if he quits, it will need to pass a formal motion of confidence. - -That process will take at least a year, if not longer, after Parliament returns from its summer recess. But if the motion of confidence moves through both Houses of Parliament in its entirety, Rudd and her cabinet can push the final button, naming Justice David Prosser as her replacement. - -The last few months have seen much speculation about the future of Justice Kirby. Although he was appointed by the U.K. government to sit on the U.K. Supreme Court, Kirby does not hold such a post himself. Instead, he serves as the U.K.'s representative on the International Court of Justice, a specialized international tribunal that resolves legal disputes between states. His appointment was widely seen as a means of signaling that the UK wanted to take a more active role in addressing disputes between it and individual states. Prosser holds similar views, saying that the U.K. "believes that the ICC is an important partner for the U.K. to build a safer world," adding that he hopes to "lead the U.K.'s work with ICC on a regular basis." - -However, in recent weeks, there have been reports that Prosser is feeling besieged. An anonymous source told The Sunday Times that there is a "dramatic split" with the government over the direction of the court, which is headed by Prosser instead of the head of the judiciary, which is currently Sir Declan Morgan. - -In his article, The Unfinished Case Against Justice Prosser, former U.K. solicitor general Dominic Grieve described Prosser's relationship with the government "in crisis" and said that he had lost confidence in the leader of his team, Richard Thomas QC. A former justice minister, Grieve wrote that Prosser was "too easily distracted" and suffered from a "deluded sense that the case is close to being concluded" that left him "willing to consider a resignation as a consequence of his own mistakes." - -Justice Prosser would find out just how far his relationship with the U.K. government had fallen if he took up his new position in April. But given how difficult it is to find a new court chief, the likelihood is that he will stay on. Indeed, it is hard to imagine that he would step down without something substantial to replace him on the Supreme Court with. Prosser could be appointed to the British Bar, which is already facing serious staff reductions. Justice Michael Kirby is set to retire on the end of this year. - -Nevertheless, the fate of Justice Prosser is not entirely in the hands of his replacement. If Parliament approves Prosser's appointment, it will require his signature. However, this is much easier said than done. - -Prosser's supporters believe this would be the only way for the Court to proceed in the aftermath of Justice Kirby's departure. A member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Scott Nelson, told BBC News: - -This appointment is an acknowledgement that, in order to replace Justice John Sirica as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, there is no one more qualified than David Prosser to do so. Justice Gavin Hutchinson has no prior judicial experience, and this appointment will ensure that a new Chief Judge of the Supreme Court has a strong and experienced case making background." - -Justice Nigel Peters, a former member of parliament for the Conservatives, is another supporter of Prosser's appointment. Peters argued in a letter to Parliament earlier this month that he would be "extremely reluctant to sanction any judicial reshuffle that would allow another justice to replace John Sirica." Even if the U.K. government agreed to allow Prosser to become chief justice, there would be a battle to make sure it gets one. Although Prosser has had a long career as a judge, he was in the news last week when he was removed from a case against a hotel chain that allegedly discriminated against a gay couple. "I have no doubt that a case of this nature will provoke a fierce backlash from various quarters," a U.K. solicitor said afterwards. - -One of Prosser's opponents, however, is Nigel Adams, a Tory MP.

While arriving, she claims that someone in the hotel room invited her for a tour. - -Leeds claimed that, while inside the hotel room, Trump began kissing her and that he forced his tongue down her throat. She claimed that the incident took place in the early 1990s and that Trump also kissed three other women in the room. - -Leeds stated in the Times that she decided to go public with her allegation after receiving a series of threatening calls from Trump's campaign. - -Trump released a statement to the Times in response to the story. - -"This whole thing was fabricated," said Trump, addressing Leeds.

This makes sense because, on the basis of your age, sex and general health, it is quite likely that you may be carrying at least one thyroid nodule. Some physicians even recommend screening as long as they are certain that you are not carrying other health problems such as cancer or bleeding disorders. - - -Unfortunately, some physicians tend not to follow proper screening recommendations. In some cases, they fail to realize that you could be carrying a thyroid nodule, even though it is visible on an ultrasound examination. - - -Furthermore, some physicians have even prescribed unnecessary thyroid drugs in some cases as the "safe and effective" means of treating thyroid diseases. You are very unlikely to be treated in order to cure a disease, simply because of the symptoms you experience at the same time. In some states, some physicians have even made false claims regarding the benefits of thyroid drugs. These practices have led to a number of lawsuits, resulting in many patients taking their thyroid medication without proper medical guidance. - - -Q: Can I be prescribed thyroid replacement medication without a screening and evaluation? - -A: Yes, but that's not recommended or required by the American College of Radiology (ACR) or the American Thyroid Association (ATA). - - -Some people believe that thyroid replacement medications can provide additional health benefits. However, there is very little or no scientific evidence supporting any of the currently available thyroid replacement medication methods. If you are wondering whether you should be using thyroid replacement medication, the answer is that you should do all tests necessary, including screening, to make sure that your thyroid condition is not causing symptoms that require treatment. However, if your condition is causing symptoms that clearly warrant a thyroid evaluation, it would not be prudent to ignore these symptoms. - -Q: What other tests should I be doing? - -A: You should have your thyroid glands evaluated by a doctor or endocrinologist. You should have your thyroid glands sampled to see if there is a problem with how they work. Your thyroid gland should have been evaluated by a thyroid specialist at least once within the last three to five years. You might also have your thyroid evaluated by ultrasound, endocrine laboratory testing or an endocrine-related clinical exam. Your doctor should be able to tell whether you are having symptoms related to thyroid disease that warrant treatment with medications. Your endocrine treatment regimen should be carefully evaluated before giving you anything that has the potential to harm you (such as birth -======================================== SAMPLE 150 ======================================== -Django and Django Girls - -Why Django and not Rails or JavaScript? - -Dedjango is written in Python. If you write something in Python you can expect something similar in Python. What's more, the people behind Django and Django Girls have a lot of experience with developing web applications with Python. - -Django is more widely used because it's easy to use and easier to get started with and learn. If something doesn't work or you need some documentation on D, it's a piece of cake. If you want to learn Django you can just read documentation, look at the API docs or get help on the #django IRC channel. - -Django and Django Girls provide a great place to learn more about web app development with Django. With the help of Django Girls you'll have a solid grasp of the main principles of building applications with Django. - -What is Django? - -Django is the open source web framework by which hundreds of thousands of projects are built every day. While Django is used by both developers and non-developers, Django Girls aims to help non-devs become more comfortable with Django. - -Why Django? - -Django was designed out of necessity. The Python platform was designed to be a powerful, high-level programming language. Its strong type system helps prevent programmer errors and lets you build applications easily. Django was created to fit this strong and versatile language in the best possible way. - -Since the early days of the web development industry, web servers have been slow and bloated compared to Python's standard library. Django fills that void by providing tools for working with databases securely. Django also makes the development of web applications easier by taking care of all the tedious detail. - -Why do I need Django? - -Django lets you use a more object-oriented style of programming, instead of using more procedural constructs. It's possible to build applications easily in Django, which is important if you're building web applications. - -Django and Django Girls - -Django and Django Girls will provide you with a solid grounding in Python and Django. The aim is to teach you the fundamentals of web application building to help you get started with Django as quickly as possible. - -Each Django and Django Girls course will contain lessons on different aspects of web development.

According to the lawsuit which was filed by a Houston public relations firm, there was a "lack of concern for the plaintiff based upon his failure to commit to the position of officer without having accepted the Defendant's position of officer." - -Scott argued that being a Christian at work "is incompatible with the duties and responsibilities of a police officer." According to the internal lawsuit, the supervisor of the department had asked Scott to pray before the orientation as a way to ease his fears about a terrorist attack. Scott refused to "reinvent [his] career because [he] did not have the confidence to return to work." - -The manager of the Houston Police Department, Gary Mielke, said that Scott was sacked because there was no basis to hold onto the officer. - -"The Houston Police Department has many people of varying beliefs and backgrounds and, as a matter of policy that does not happen," Mielke stated in a statement. "It is not up to us to dictate to a suspect — even a Muslim suspect — what kind of prayers or Bible studies they may or may not conduct with their employees." - -A Houston jury is now deliberating the case. - -Watch this video from C-SPAN.<|endoftext|>Welcome to the first, and possibly only, official page for our project: the world's first "Cup" of beer, designed by me & The H2O Team.

The new study, in the November 2014 Journal of the American College of Cardiology, says that the effect is based on a study limited to just one group, men. - -Researchers analyzed data from the Pritikin Trial, a randomized, open-label investigation of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) and its potential cardiovascular effects among more than 100,000 men who took aspirin when they were 38-years old or older. Those taking aspirin were more likely to have lower strokes and heart attacks and more likely to have died from cardiovascular disease, the most common cause of death. - -The study was funded by the National Institutes of Health, the American Heart Association, and the pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline and was conducted by the National Center for Research Resources. - -Sung-Whan Lee, Ph.D., an assistant professor of pharmacology at the University of South Carolina, says, "We found that women in particular had an increased risk with taking aspirin when they were 38" because researchers used a population-based study that was designed specifically for women. This study is important because it provides the strongest evidence to date of how aspirin may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, and women were included in the study because aspirin use is significantly higher in women than men. - -The team of researchers analyzed blood levels in the men, called baseline endothelial function, for more than 3.5 million participants. They found that for each unit increase in baseline endothelial function, the risk of heart attack decreases by 17 percent and stroke decreased by 37 percent during follow-up, with no significant differences between men and women.<|endoftext|>As part of the "Bucket List" promotion for the upcoming Disney animated classic Big Hero 6, fans can enjoy the original animated short "Wings" on demand through their Roku streaming player and smartphones.

In order to distract Imperial forces in the area, the Stormcloaks assaulted the Imperial Legion and, under the leadership of Galmar Stone-Fist, assassinated the Emperor Titus Mede II. Ulfric was then assassinated by his own lieutenant, Alikr the Soulflayer. The Empire immediately annexed High Rock and all the surrounding Imperial provinces.

However, Apple is clearly making this a stand-alone new category, and the "Sport" sport straps that have been available for about a year are not the way to go.The new watch faces look almost exactly like older sport watch faces, at first glance. Instead of a sport face displaying a map, the new faces display the route for a new workout. They include a number of features for running and cycling enthusiasts that would be difficult to find or create on a standard sport watch face.Here's an example of a "New Trainer" watch face that is much more in line with what I expected a sport watch to look like without any extra effort. There are a few more examples available to view below.A new "Stride" and "Climb to Go" watch face is also showing up in the apps section of the Mac App Store today, but it's far from clear that they're being labeled as Sport or not.Apple is clearly giving it a shot at creating a unique category of watch faces for those of you who want to use some of the unique functionalities that the technology makes possible.While the company has used the WatchKit APIs to create some pretty cool watch faces for iPhone, Apple Watch and Apple TV, much like how it's doing to create smartwatch apps for other platforms, it's also giving users a lot of flexibility to design their own faces. There's a free iPhone app in the App Store that lets you draw your own unique watch face -- the only difference is that this can be based on some photos or illustrations, or just text.With the new iPhone 7 and the upcoming Apple Watch Series 4 hardware, Apple appears to be finally bringing those Watch faces to its hardware. The lack of a stand alone new sports watch face for the Apple Watch has long been a criticism of the technology, and has been rumored to be the reason for the introduction of the "Apple Watch Edition" at WWDC 2015 earlier this week.Apple has already given some users the ability to customize the Sport watch face based on what their wrist position looks like on a daily basis, and we can expect to see more like this coming to the Apple Watch soon.With the new Sport watch faces that are now available, users are also allowed to select from pre-configured options, like time zones, day of the week, time period, weather, and an Apple Watch Edition style. All of the new watch faces include their own weather icons, which is nice and unique, not being associated with a traditional sport watch face with only two or three icons like we've seen before.It's pretty obvious that Apple Watch Series 4 hardware will be able to support the new watch faces coming in this update, as Apple has said these faces will be pre-loaded on Apple Watch Series 4. The only thing that needs to happen on the iPhone side is the iPhone needs to be paired with the watch in order to use any of the new faces.<|endoftext|>I am in a position to comment on one of the issues raised tonight by Mr Deputy Speaker: the appointment (by Mr Speaker) as Chairman and Chairperson of the Committee on the Constitution: - - -"The Committee on the Constitution - - -Estimated cost: £30 000" - - -I am not alone in seeing that this committee would be a waste of money, and could not be made to be worth the cost of its establishment. - - -I am a firm opponent of the constitutional Convention, and consider that only the General Assembly should draft the new amendments. - -However, if the Assembly is to retain control of the constitution, it should make the final selection of its three most acceptable proposals for the next constitution, as it is the only way to provide for accountability to the people. - - -When I was first elected as an Anti Con coner in 2001, I was concerned to see the number of Anti Con coners in the local areas and elsewhere in the country on increasing.

While I cannot speak for the UNODA, I believe this piece to be representative of general viewpoints on the human rights situation in Rakhine. - -When I came to Rakhine recently from the city of Yangon (Thailand), I was in search of something I never had before in my career: a job on the ground. After a few days of interviewing, I became one of a handful of journalists to visit the area. - -I began reporting on the crisis facing the Rohingya community on June 11th.

For many people, the answer is a blank one. - -The Democratic and Republican Parties have been locked in a battle for more than a year, with the Democrats having the most to lose. If Democrats are to capture the White House in November, one of their candidates will have to win the majority of the popular vote. But despite President Obama's efforts to mobilize the Democratic base, many Democratic politicians are reluctant to run on their party's label, even if, at the same time, they are critical of their own Party. - -One reason for this is that many politicians fear appearing "weak" or "clumsy" if they run on Obama's name. Obama has been in the White House for most of these six years, giving him greater control over the party apparatus than his two immediate predecessors. If, however, a Democratic president had lost the 2008 presidential election to Republican Senator John McCain, his party would have been in serious peril. The party was torn and disempowered, and any Democrat who would have followed in Clinton's footsteps would face a difficult reelection campaign. But instead, Obama's victory ushered in new challenges among Democrats. "We had an environment in which if you lost an election, if you were a Democrat … it's very, very hard to find yourself again," Senator Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) said in an interview last year. "We needed to have a really bold vision and a leader who came in very directly from the center and said, hey, let's go big in a different direction and get this done, or else we're going to go the way of the Whigs." - -Still, Democrats are not on offense during the 2016 primary process. "There are so many Democrats who are nervous about their image, because that's the only tool they have to go toe-to-toe with whoever they want to go toe-to-toe with," said Tad Devine, a longtime Democratic consultant. Instead, Devine said that the Republican Party has largely been left to the side. "What has happened is that Republicans have been getting the lion's share of airtime, and Democrats have just kind of been relegated to the sidelines. This is not necessarily an advantage for Democrats. The one advantage Democrats can claim is that the Republicans have not had to spend any money on television this cycle. There are all of the major candidates and the Republican Party — the party as a whole — has been in a panic mode."<|endoftext|>This article is adapted from the American Psychological Association's 2014 Ethics in Psychotherapy Report. - -Elder abuse is the abuse of an elder or resident and is defined by the American Association of Suicidology as "repeated use of emotional or physical coercion to control, frighten, or threaten" an elder or resident. Elder abuse may include threats by members of a caregiver's family or by other caregivers of their family, the use of violence, threats, or other intimidating methods of control, or other forms of pressure. - -Elder abuse is common in the psychiatric community. While it is not uncommon for a person to be the subject of abuse, it is not necessarily a form of mental illness. Elder abuse is often perpetrated by members of a caregiver's family, by a resident's caretakers, or by other caregivers of the resident. - -Elder abuse may occur in one caregiver's home or family, in a nursing home, a mental hospital, a residential care facility, or in a group home, assisted living, or assisted living facility. (See figure 1). While people are different, some caregivers may suffer from elder abuse, which makes them less capable of caring for an elder with respect to personal care, and may contribute to higher rates of elder abuse.1 - -This report presents findings from the first 10 years of a National Incidence Study (NIS) of elder abuse in the United States.2 The NIS aims to monitor and understand the extent and nature of elder abuse in the United States. Elder abuse is an integral part of the health care system, and is responsible for up to 60 percent of medical emergency room visits and 50 percent of hospitalizations in nursing homes and other residential facilities.3 - -The National Incidence Study of Elder Abuse - -The NIS, the first 10 years, examined reported elder abuse incidents in nursing homes and other residential facilities.4 This annual national study of 1,000 nursing home residents and 1,000 community residents is conducted every five years. Because of the long-term nature of the study, the NIS uses data collected over more than nine years. - -In 2016, the NIS included incidents of elder abuse in all nursing homes and assisted living facilities in the United States.5 The NIS found that elder abuse in this research period, from 2005 through 2015, was reported in 574 nursing homes and 615 communities (in communities not owned and operated by public health departments).

A press release announcing the news reads as follows: - -The Tolkien Estate and Trust confirms that a substantial investment has been made in an important component of The Lord of the Rings, the restoration of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit trilogy. - -Although the full financial details remain confidential, a statement accompanying the news confirms this significant investment. The news comes on the same day the estate and film studio signed a definitive license agreement for an extended Trilogy as a motion picture and for subsequent television, book and audio-visual releases. - -The Tolkien Estate and Trust is very appreciative of the considerable efforts made by the directors of the film and, indeed, everyone involved with the production. I can assure you that there will be further improvements in the final stages of the project, particularly in quality. - -A further statement was made at yesterday's premiere of the new Hobbit films at New Zealand's Te Papa Museum of Art, in Wellington. Director Peter Jackson said, "While the entire team has had amazing opportunities in this incredibly talented group of professionals, we are delighted to have the support of The Tolkien Estate…it's a wonderful day to be part of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit." - -Original post continues below: - -As reported by various news sources following the release of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey earlier this month, Peter Jackson has spent $130,000 on restoring The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The project seems to be on track with The Hobbit films having received a more modest and low key makeover after the events of The Desolation of Smaug. - -A press release issued by the Tolkien Estate states that this is the first time a full-length motion picture has been shot on this scale. "With its special effects enhanced by digital wizardry and practical effects as well as CGI (Computer Generated Imagery) created in New Zealand, this is the high-stakes filmmaking experience of a lifetime," says Michael Arndt, the first director of photography on The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers. "And, of course, it offers Peter Jackson's film-making wizards an opportunity to create a new version of Middle-earth that perfectly captures the spirit and sweep of the book series," Arndt adds, adding, "Every scene here has been a painstakingly studied study of Tolkien's vivid world" and the production staff has "worked ceaselessly to faithfully recreate the world of J.R.R. Tolkien as conceived by JRR Tolkien himself." - -The announcement of the restoration also confirms the details of the deal made by the filmmakers to receive "continuous worldwide distribution rights to the film trilogy." Tolkien Estate and Trust representatives would not divulge if this new version will have any additional added special effects or would be a straight re-release of the films. - -While the details of how the money has been raised has yet to be revealed, the press release issued by the Tolkien Estate in conjunction with the announcement reads as follows: "The Tolkien Estate and Trust announces that Peter Jackson and his production company, New Line Cinema, have signed a definitive license agreement with the Tolkien Estate and Trust to receive continuing worldwide distribution rights to The Lord of the Rings trilogy. - -"The decision to purchase such significant distribution rights marks an impressive commitment and testament to both the high quality of the production and the value to the worldwide Tolkien community. - -"A substantial investment by The Tolkien Estate and Trust and other partners and a team that includes the film makers has been made in the restoration and preservation of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and its accompanying feature-length motion picture. - -"While the precise nature of this investment has yet to be disclosed, it is estimated by many to be in the range of $130,000,000. Although this is a substantial commitment by all concerned, it is a relatively new form of investment which can only be made by individuals or foundations that have substantial resources and are willing to invest." - -This marks the second time in a few weeks news has been released pertaining to the restoration of the three films, following a deal made in December between the Walt Disney Company and the Tolkien Estate to "revive the trilogy as a film trilogy from the original trilogy." - -Related stories: - -Disney's 'Tolkien' Film To Be Starred By Elijah Wood, Cate Blanchett, Peter Jackson & James Nesbitt - -'Tolkien' Reboot Set for October 2014 [Updated] - -'The Hobbit' Sequels Reportedly In Development; Peter Jackson Reunites With -======================================== SAMPLE 159 ======================================== -As you can see from the photo below, the two photos are not the same at all, that is, one has the same coloration, with two large orange circles on the left side (right), and one has smaller and a few larger red circles with yellow border, as well as some light yellow border at bottom of photo.

But now, it could have come sooner. - -An international team of scientists, led by David Grinspoon at the Colorado School of Mines, has revealed a previously unknown giant planet. Called Planet 9, the object is 10 times the mass of Earth and located more than 30 billion kilometres from Earth. - -Unlike previous confirmed Kuiper Belt objects, Planet 9 is so large that it blocks part of the Milky Way, thus making it a giant in its own right. - -"We have found a giant planet with no known satellites and a very eccentric orbit, both of which we have never before seen in a KBO," Dr Grinspoon told The Guardian. - -The Kuiper Belt, consisting of three huge objects between the orbits of Neptune and Uranus, contains an estimated 50-100 Jupiter-sized planets across an enormous region of space. However, despite its importance for planetary scientists, the Kuiper Belt is not always explored. Since the 1950s, several space probes have failed to make it through its narrow belt. - -"No spacecraft ever has made it through the inner edge of the Kuiper Belt, but several missions have approached the outer edge of our solar system, reaching the edge of the asteroid belt," said Grinspoon. - -A major issue with probing the outer edge of the Kuiper Belt is that the distance to the Kuiper Belt is so vast that even small objects are too large to be captured. - -In order to get a larger sample of objects, NASA's NEOWISE probe, which orbited the Kuiper Belt from 2010-2013, was sent to hunt down the smallest objects in the region, all of which were detected and tracked down by the spacecraft. - -However, the space telescope found itself restricted to the Kuiper Belt region by the distances of its orbits. - -In this new study, the team used a special high-precision telescope to detect small, distant exoplanets with a radius of up to 1.2 times that of Earth. - -It is estimated that the Kuiper Belt has about 1,000 planets that are between 0.2 and 10 times Earth's mass, with about 500-2000 larger planets that exist at more than 10 times Earth's radius. This means that only the larger, more distant objects could be captured or observed by the Kuiper Telescope. - -The planet was discovered on April 11th 2016, by the team including Dr John G. Martin of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and the University of Geneva and Dr Adam Riess of the Space Telescope Science Institute. - -It was originally known as KOI-26 (pronounced Kai-e-dee-see) and was later redefined as the planet Proxima b. - -Proxima b was previously predicted by GRB 130427B, also known as PSR B14027-6035, to be the first exoplanet to be born about 4.58 billion years ago — roughly 100 to 350 million years after the solar system was born. There are several theories on Proxima b's origin, including its impact with the inner solar system, some giant planet collision or disruption, and a planet-forming disk of gas located in the outer edges of our solar system — essentially a cloud of gas and dust which can produce stars. Regardless of such theories, the Kuiper Belt is an ideal candidate for Proxima b's formation and discovery because the objects are in a very distant region of the universe and therefore hard to reach via current space flight. - -The planet is located near the star that surrounds Proxima Centauri, which is named for the Proxima Centauri system, which is known from the stars of this system in the night sky around the night sky above the northern hemisphere of our galaxy. It lies approximately twice as far away from Proxima Centauri as the Earth is from the sun.<|endoftext|>There are several theories about what happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, and the most common one involves the pilot intentionally crashing the plane after he realized his "perfect day" had disappeared.

Most of us had never been on a motorcycle, but were just looking to have some fun riding around in the streets. This wasn't unusual. Most of us got our bikes new, so we could enjoy riding, then kept them as long as possible. - - -There are many benefits of riding motorcycles. One of the most common are the freedom and independence that can come with riding a motorcycle. You can live, or travel, and have fun wherever you travel, rather than staying at home. Motorcycling creates a very active lifestyle. It is a way out of the rat race. It gives you the opportunity to find your own style, and set your own limits. When a motorcycle is in your hand, life can't get much better. - - -However, there are many challenges that motorcyclists face. These challenges range from technical to safety to maintenance. Most of us just take the challenges of riding motorcycles for what they are. We are able to use our riding skills to deal with the problems as they occur. Our experiences and knowledge help us overcome common problems that we encounter at every turn, without ever realizing that we have any problems. - -How motorcyclists deal with problems is a great question, and one that requires a lot of thought to answer. Some of the thoughts that come to mind may not apply to you, so I'll try to explain some of the ideas that help motorcyclists to get through the tough times. For example, you may feel that your riding skill and riding skills are better than the average person. But if you aren't willing to do the work, and commit to getting better -======================================== SAMPLE 161 ======================================== -In August of 2005, the world became aware of the fact that a human being had been in space for over six months. Though the story is still shrouded in mystery the most widely known information is that John Glenn became the longest-serving American space traveler when he returned to Earth in February, 1962. - -In fact, this is true of all the people who have been in space throughout human history as well as every person for whom we have records and has been in space since the world's birth. The same holds true for those who have been in space in the past week and who also remain in space. The more we know about these people and their experiences, the broader our understanding of their role in the world around us (and their role in human history). - -The list of people who flew in missions that lasted more than one day can take all sorts of shapes and sizes but is always impressive in total length. In the years following the original Apollo era when we launched people into orbit and later into space for long periods of time, people were launched and in space for short periods of time. Here are a some of the most famous space travelers in history. - -Of course, the very first person to ever hit the ground on an airplane when it was actually landing was a pilot named Captain James Cook during an ill-fated attempt to break the record for the longest flight of any manned aircraft on the Eastern Coast of the U.S. Cook's flight lasted over seven hours and twenty minutes and set the all-time land-flight record at the time (the previous record holder was a Spanish Air Force pilot named Francisco "Pancha" Rodriguez who flew an aircraft from Madrid, Spain to Marseille in France in July, 1957 at the age of only twenty-two years and four months, for only eleven hours and fifteen minutes). The record stood for more than twenty years. - -Advertisement - -A few years later, two other pilots attempted to break Cook's record. Both attempts were thwarted by poor weather and bad weather conditions. The only other person to fly in an airplane in space before Cook was the Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin who was launched aboard Vostok 1 to become the first human in space. He was successfully returned to Earth and landed in a Russian landing craft on August 17, 1962 in a little over six-and-a-half hours, twenty minutes and twenty seconds into his mission. Gagarin was actually considered a contender to surpass Cook's record before he was lost in the Apollo 1 fire of 1961. - -The last long-duration flight aboard the Space Shuttle was an eight-day mission in 1995 in which a Russian Soyuz capsule launched and a crew of seven, including three Americans, embarked on a space walk. That mission was considered a critical milestone in the history of the space program because it demonstrated shuttle rendezvous, docking and berthing on orbit of the International Space Station. - -For six months, a Russian Soyuz rocketed the crew and research equipment to a 200-mile orbit. On September 9, 2000, the Russian shuttle Mir reentered the atmosphere and landed with a spectacular splash in the Pacific Ocean, a successful return that was only possible thanks to a combination of luck and engineering prowess. - -Advertisement - -And since that year, the International Space Station has been populated by twelve astronauts. Though the U.S. government has a limited role in the design, construction, and operation of the space station, it has participated in the building of a huge docking unit capable of docking two of them simultaneously. It has also been responsible for a series of repairs to the station since its construction and has worked to protect it from a large number of space debris, a problem that could cripple its ability to send a crew to other planets and return them safely alive. - -In fact, the number of people who have ever been in orbit or worked inside the International Space Station is so high that in order to reduce the number who have to work out of sight while on station, most station dwellers are expected to rotate in and out of the Space Station every two weeks, something that is very disruptive for the people who are doing important work during this time. It is not unusual for someone at the station to wake up and find that they don't have an apartment to live in. And during every rotation, the rest of the station crew has to share their living quarters with anyone who is up and not working. The rotation program is called the "fast cycle" because the work on the Station tends to slow down and sometimes stop if there are no new people to fill those positions. - -Over the years I've been fortunate enough to travel to space in the Soviet Union, the United States, and the European Space Agency. My primary reason for being in space was to see Earth and learn more about its geography, and that's what I did for twelve years. Even though I worked on missions that span several days and sometimes stretched over five hours, all the trips were amazing, inspiring and inspiring -======================================== SAMPLE 162 ======================================== -Fears of a new North Korean nuclear war heightened on Thursday, as the Obama administration released a new round of economic sanctions targeting a number of people, in an effort to tighten the screws and compel the regime to return to talks. - - -US officials said they have confirmed that the North Korean army has deployed an anti-aircraft missile, the Pukguksong-1.

The story was picked up in one of my favorite sites, The Washington Post. - -I started reading the post, but the paragraph I want to focus on happened right before the second paragraph of the post: - -For a moment, the man sat on the couch, and the child sat on the floor, his head down. The man took his belt off and bound the child's hands. The child had been beaten in the forehead with a belt. A knife had been stuck into his groin. - -What I want to talk about is the word "kicked." It's a powerful word: it is associated with the worst things that can happen to a person. In the story, it seemed like the father's use of the word kicked was a good thing; after all, it was an act of violence that was intended to hurt the child. But what does the word "kicked" really mean? Are we being told that the act was justified because the child deserved it (not only based on his or her past transgressions, but also based on the child's own history of being abused)? As I've written about many times before, the word "kicked" is generally defined as - -the act of striking, or the movement of something, by an instrument, such as a sword, a club, a fist, or some other kind of object, in such a manner as to produce pain or injury - -In short, you give someone a kick and they'll hurt or be hurt . It's the opposite of giving someone a hug or slapping them. - -So why is the word kicked being used as an act of violence by a father or uncle? - -A few moments after that paragraph, we learned what we have come to know for a long time: "abuse" is not something that comes and goes; we're all victims of abuse whether we know it, don't realize it, or admit it. This should be a very comforting story, but it's not. - -"He kicked me with his boot and gave me a bad slap with a stick." "He said, 'if I ever see you, I kick you in your head.'"

If it is true, as U.S. officials suspect, that Iran's former president and current supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was the mastermind of the deal and that it is his top deputy who is still in Iran, then a whole host of very bad things must follow. Here are just a few of them, beginning with the obvious: - -The current president of the United States will leave office in nine days, and the Republican candidate will win the general election just a few weeks later. This, on top of a potential Iran nuclear deal which, if it is implemented, would bring the world some form of economic stability and allow us to spend some of those billions that we might have spent on fighting the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria in a much more prudent way, would make a great deal of difference. We will have a much healthier and hopeful presidency, the country will be far more prepared to confront the terrorist threat that hangs over our country, and more willing to work with other countries — including Russia — to work towards a more peaceful world. - -But that is only part of the bad news. The other major impact would be the end of the Iran nuclear deal. In the days leading up to the announcement that the deal was finally coming undone, we all had to take a deep breath. Obama is not a perfect president, but in the last decade he has achieved far more than any of his predecessors at the same stage in their presidencies. And when he signed into law the Affordable Care Act, which I have also signed into law, in Congress, that is probably the best example of his mastery of Congress. - -But as we all know now, nothing works in Obama's world, and he just does not give up. In this instance, he apparently decided to have one last stand rather than face the fact that his successor would probably be a much different kind of president — one who did not want any deal at all, or perhaps had lost track of the fact that the United States had struck two major deals with Tehran in the last two years that put our relationships with Iran at the top of the list of issues we would face in the future. It had never occurred to him that we might find out about this deal through the Iranians, that perhaps this was something he could be forced to deal with over his remaining time in office — a possibility that did not even occur to him. - -No matter how you look it, the Iran deal was a great missed opportunity for Obama, because for so long it has been his model for doing business in the Middle East — a success story without parallel except in a fantasy landscape. It was, at its core, a failure. - -We know this because even Obama admitted it. He was not the first president to reach out to Iran, he said in his 2013 State of the Union speech, but by all accounts, as my colleague Matt M. Lee reported for the New York Times, he was the first president to try to force Tehran into a deal. Obama's Iran deal, he said, was "the toughest sanction regime in history," a "turning point" for U.S. foreign policy and a "game changer in the Middle East." "The Iranians have begun their shift," he added, "but before it is complete we must continue to act, and we will." - -But, according to the White House disclosures, what Obama was doing was trying to make the United States look tough and to make himself look like an international statesman. But what he actually did was force the United States to deal with a rogue regime who had repeatedly violated the spirit and letter of international norms, and in the process created an extremely real threat to our credibility as a broker for resolving international disputes, as well as potentially even an existential threat to the existence of the United States. - -And if there is to be any comfort to American taxpayers, it ought to be that it was the Iranians whose expectations were way higher than those of Obama's administration because this was all about them — this is what was at stake. The Iranian nuclear program was on their radar screen because they knew that whatever it was they were doing was designed to put a stop to the American policy of containment in the region. They knew the Americans were doing all sorts of other stuff against them, they just could not figure out what it was. But now, as a result of the deal they were forced to sign with Obama, they now have a sense of what American interests were and where they stood. They know that they might have been wrong to bother with them in the past. Now they realize that it is the United States with whom they must negotiate. - -Indeed, it is not just Iranians who now see the United States as a reliable and trustworthy broker on the -======================================== SAMPLE 164 ======================================== -For a man who's been dead for decades, the thought of a life after life is a pretty radical concept. There's a world out there after death and, as our friend Robert Anton Wilson said, it's full of dark wonders like The Wizard Of Oz; it also contains a lot of weirdness, even for a dead man - -No one ever said that one should never contemplate death. In fact, it's more important than ever, because no one knows when it will end anyway. If it does end it'll come abruptly, like a blow to the head. If you're lucky it'll take the form of a gentle tap on the shoulder, or the occasional yawn. - -But all of that is relative. What's really important is what is happening now, what is happening to you now, what is occurring at this very moment. I hope you'll be listening to this show, even if it's just for a moment. - -I also hope you'll be thinking about all the people you love. The ones who are still in your life. Everyone you love. - -And I also hope you'll be thinking about that wonderful place out there. I hope you'll be thinking about where we are now and what we need to be doing about it. And finally I hope you'll be thinking and feeling about those things out there that we just can't comprehend, cannot possibly see, cannot necessarily measure, cannot possibly explain, cannot possibly understand. Those things we simply cannot fathom. - -But they are real. They are always real. And because they are real, it is possible to live, to have meaning, to learn, to grow, to change the world. The world cannot be fixed, it can only be molded and changed. It cannot be ruled, it can only be influenced, it can only be shaped. And what I'm trying to tell this listener is that it doesn't get any easier because it doesn't get any easier to become someone else. - -I'd like to give you a little advice, too. And you may not even be able to understand it. - -I want to tell you that it's okay to take some time off. It's okay to let go. - -And I want to tell you that if you stop to think about it long enough, you'll find yourself feeling better than you've ever felt before. You're stronger than you've ever been or perhaps ever will be again. You're no longer broken, your life is your own. - -But you need to realize that everything I just asked you to do has now turned into a very real goal that you're working toward. - -Maybe you just stop and start listening. Maybe you listen to your friend for a little while, or to the guy down the street, or to yourself. Maybe you turn on your favorite podcast. Maybe you read a book. Maybe you even write… or more likely, you just stop and look at this picture. - -Whatever it is you decide to do, just remember this. - -There is a great big world out there waiting for you. - -A world that you never thought we'd ever see again. - -If you keep doing what we're doing right now, and you don't stop, there is a possibility. That possibility is not slim. It's not improbable. It's not even unlikely. In fact, it's a certainty. - -If this happens, if a man with a name like Bob Marley who died 70 years ago and left us a musical legacy that continues to live today can actually have a life after this one, if a man who had no intention of ever living having gone around telling people to "turn on their dreams to come true" can have that life, you'll know you were born to live and live to live because that's the world that awaits you. - -So just keep going, keep working as hard as you can, keep talking and talking and talking and working even harder.

But how does the division stack up when you include all of the teams' games? According to my MLB Playoff Odds, the American League West is 11-12 in games decided by more than two runs this year. That's not only the most competitive division in baseball, but it also has the most games decided by more than one run this year of any division in baseball, and the most games decided by two or more runs in the sport. - -I was going through a spreadsheet of all the games for the last week to see which division had the most games decided by one or two runs, just like we did last week for each division. So far this year, the American is in third place. I had to adjust the numbers on my MLB Playoff Odds spreadsheet to match last week's numbers. So the American is actually the winner. - -I also compared how many of the division's games ended in an eight-run victory for all teams. The American and the NL Central are the two teams having the most one-run games of any of the divisions this year. The American was at 34, the Central at 23, and the NL West at 12. In total, the American is up to 40 one-run victories this year. The NL Central was close behind at 33, with the NL West finishing a whopping ninth with 27. The NL West is having a good year so far at 27 one-run victories. With two extra wins this year, the Nationals tie for the NL lead in one-run victories with the Brewers. But the Brewers have four one-run victories to the NL Central's three, so the division probably has the edge overall if we add the two to last week's totals. - -Of course, the American hasn't exactly been a powerhouse this year, but that doesn't mean the divisions have been totally flat. It's easy to look at games decided by a single run and conclude that the American is a weak division. That's not the case at all. The American's first round opponent, the Texas Rangers, has lost both their games by a run this year. They have a three-game lead in the AL West going into their series with the San Francisco Giants this week. - -If we look at all of the teams to lose by more than one run this season, the American leads them by two. A lot of divisions could use some pitching help. - -I can't remember a year where so many three-run games have occurred, and it makes sense given the American's high-powered offense. The average opponent scored four runs in three of the four American losses we looked at this week. The Rangers are tied for 15th in runs of four or more in their games this season. - -I was curious to know how well the American would match up against the other divisions. I looked at how all teams in the other divisions have fared against each other this year by looking at runs scored. So far, the American still ranks fifth overall in a division where the other division leads in runs scored by a huge margin. - -The American's weakness against each of its divisions is probably because of their extreme pitching dominance. The American had a better offense against only the AL Central and the NL West than against the two AL East divisions (though the Yankees had the more impressive numbers). The average NL team has scored more runs than the American, but the average American team can't quite put more runs on the board than the NL West. - -It may also be because of how the American has handled its pitching rotation. They have four guys at the top of the rotation that have a combined 1.92 ERA, and even though they have a low ERA in terms of FIP, their .240 batting average and .313 on-base percentage would tell you they've struggled. - -The American hasn't exactly been a powerhouse this year. In fact, they'll have to be more than just a powerhouse to win this division. The American has the second lowest ERA and most run support in the league as well as the seventh-highest run differential in the American League. I'd expect the AL Central to win this season because -======================================== SAMPLE 169 ======================================== -Image copyright Getty Images Image caption China has launched its biggest naval fleet since 1949 - -Two Chinese warships are set to complete repairs on the disputed South China Sea, Philippine officials say. - -They also say Beijing has agreed to a Philippine proposal to allow two Chinese planes to take-off from the country's Bicol airport next month. - -China has refused to take part in any joint patrols, but will send two military ships with more planes to the area if plans are confirmed. - -The ships are expected to leave the country before the end of 2014. - -Mr Abella has welcomed the ships' arrival in his country, telling reporters on Friday: "We hope to open a new chapter in our military relations." - -He also said he was pleased that Beijing had agreed to allow the Philippines to establish a military base in Sabah, on Indonesia's east coast. - -China claims most of the South China Sea, through which about $5 trillion (£3.2 trillion) in ship-borne trade passes every year.

It has the unique ability to disintegrate any material it collides with. - -Contents show] - -Background Edit - -The plasma blaster is a unique energy weapon used by the Republic Special Forces. It appears in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Mandalorian Wars as the primary weapon of the Republic trooper known as the Lone Wanderer. - -Characteristics Edit - -A modified variant of the standard bolt-action laser rifle, the plasma gun can discharge a concentrated beam of high-energy particles. It has a high rate of fire, but is comparatively slow-firing due to the unique firing system. As well, its lack of an optics mount and an integrated targeting scope means that the rifle lacks a long-range scope, although it has the ability to hold the aiming crosshairs on enemy targets, thus potentially making it an excellent weapon for skirmishers. - -Gameplay attributes Edit - -Unlike the more conventional power laser rifle, the plasma blaster's rate of fire and high damage per unit of time, especially against shielded opponents, allow it to take down nearly any enemy within a relatively short timeframe. This allows players to keep their targets in sight as they advance, making long-range engagements less of a problem. - -While the plasma blaster suffers from a lower rate of fire than the standard laser rifle, it has the highest damage per unit of time in the series, so it remains a reliable option despite its rate of fire. However, players should always keep in mind that plasma bolts are very powerful, so those with relatively small shields and very minimal armor are highly vulnerable to the beam. - -Tactics Edit - -In general, plasma rifles are best used against targets at close range, although this can be difficult due to the weapon's low fire rate. Players may consider it preferable to use the plasma bolt-based crosshairs. When aiming at a stationary target, it is recommended that the player put the crosshair on the torso or head to ensure accurate hits. Also the plasma launcher can be used to fire at moving turrets or other vehicles that are attempting to flank the player. - -Be wary of nearby energy shields when facing plasma rifles as the resulting energy discharge will cause heavy heat damage to the player, regardless of shielding level and even if the shielded target was previously unshielded. - -Inventory Edit - -Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Mandalorian Wars Edit - -Behind the scenes Edit - -The plasma blaster's design was inspired by a comic book series called New Exiles, a short comic book series written by J.M. DeMatteis and published by Dark Horse Comics from 2004 to 2008. - -Although it is not a weapon in the "official" video games, the weapon appears in Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords and Jedi Knight, in the Massassi warrior faction.

Its most alarming result? The rise of the East Greenland ice sheet since the end of the last glacial maximum was twice that of the Greenland ice sheet during the mid-20th century and nearly three times that of the ice sheet during the early 20 th century. - -This "East Greenland Glacial Isostatic Adjustment" is causing sea levels by about 1 millimeter a year. The East Greenland Ice Shelf, a massive sheet of ice that extends about 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) from Greenland and about 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) north of Canada, holds enough water to raise sea levels by about 1.4 millimeters a year. - -In response to the rapid pace of East Greenland Glacial Isostatic Adjustment, scientists have already begun to study methods to mitigate its effects. They have focused on building ice shelves – floating masses of ice that float above the ocean – in areas where Greenland ice is melting, but are also developing techniques for making smaller changes on a regional scale. - -For example, scientists are investigating ways to remove more water from the Greenland ice sheet, by pumping water directly into the ocean and thus accelerating glacial retreat. Such plans would not only affect the ice sheets as a whole, but would also accelerate coastal shoreline erosion, according to researchers. - -"The East Greenland Glacial Isostatic Adjustment is causing sea levels by about 1 millimeter a year. The East Greenland Ice Shelf, a massive sheet of ice that extends about 1,500 kilometers (930 miles) from Greenland and about 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) north of Canada, holds enough water to raise sea levels by about 1.4 millimeters a year" says study researcher David Pollard of the University of Minnesota. - -Pollard and his colleagues used the latest in satellite-based measurements of sea levels to track the progression of the East Greenland ice sheet's retreat from 1961 to 1990. - -They then looked at sea levels since the late 1990s, with the full extent of East Greenland ice sheet still unconfirmed and the Greenland ice sheet currently losing 300 cubic kilometers of water a year. - -"The last time we saw sea level change in this amount was around 9,000 years ago," Pollard says. - -From 1981 to 1990, when the East Greenland Ice Sheet went into collapse, global ocean levels dropped between about 0.1 and 0.4 millimeters (0.06-0.25 inches). But after that, global sea levels went up between 1.7 for the early 20th century to more than 3 meters (10 feet) higher by the early 21st century. - -The researchers say their results are "completely unexpected and, although still in the early stages of scientific investigation, provide a basis for future work on sea level response to human activity" - -To be clear, this is still a huge amount of water, about 300 cubic kilometers more than global waters took as ice melt from the entire Greenland ice sheet in the 1980s and 1990s combined – and enough for a significant number of flooding events around the world. For example, the Gulf of Mexico flooded last July and August by up to 4 meters (13 feet) when sea levels rose as much as a meter (3 feet) due to record-breaking melting in the Arctic. The U.S. Southeast was also ravaged by flooding last summer when temperatures rose up to 23 to 36 degrees Fahrenheit (11 to 22 degrees Celsius). - -(This is a new way to look at it, -======================================== SAMPLE 172 ======================================== -A man is dead after falling from a cliff onto a highway this morning in the city of El Alto, which is just north of the city of Guadalajara. - - -The victim is a 55-year-old native of the region who worked for a construction firm and left at around 11:00am.

The poll found that Cruz received 24 percent of the vote to 21 percent for Trump, with John Kasich drawing 7 percent." - - -The Times of India: "With the presidential race in its final day, Donald Trump has launched an angry war of words with another of his GOP rivals - Texas Governor Ted Cruz. - -The Republican front-runner has been tweeting messages such as: 'If @POTUS picks Cruz as his VP, that would be a massive disaster for the Republican Party.' - -His opponent Sen. Ted Cruz is also the subject of tweets from Republican rivals such as Jeb Bush and Ohio Governor John Kasich, who have been retweeting the Texas governor." - -The Washington Post has an interesting graphic of how Trump has been using Twitter to campaign.

This is to be a monthly series where I'll show you what goes into creating and editing a short anime. I'm looking to get a few other people involved to help with the editing and to help take an introspective look, both on the quality of the animation and the story. So, without further delay, lets get started! - -The Animation - -This week I'm going to show you both the animation process itself and the results. The first video I'll be showing you is something that I call "Sci-fi vs. Fantasy", the animation for this short anime starts with a pre-visualisation of the storyboards and storyboarding process. I will explain what I know and will only use the animation of this scene as a reference with the rest of it being created in-house. - -When I first started looking at animation in 2008, I knew very little about the techniques involved in animation. I'd taken a few classes in school on basic animation so as to give me a better understanding of what I was looking at and I had a rudimentary understanding of keyframe animation, but this was enough to get the job done. However, if I ever thought of doing a short anime in future, I would definitely look into understanding some of the other more advanced areas of animation. - -The same goes for the characters as I would need to have enough knowledge to not have too many errors or wrong decisions when I would be drawing the character.

But what does the future hold once the final tracks are pulled out of the ground? - -When the city announced the end of streetcars in May of last year, the inevitable questions soon followed: What do we do with those last cars that roll by, along with the final trains? - -What will become of the vacant downtown streetcar tracks? Will the city be able to use them? Is the city willing to demolish the cars? - -In a joint interview with the St. Paul Pioneer Press, officials from the city, the state Department of Public Works and the University of Minnesota said that many of those questions have already been answered. They did not, however, give an update on the plans for the streetcars or how much it would cost to keep their service alive. - -A $250,000 contract awarded to Minnesota-based St. Paul-based KSTP in January could end up saving the city money over the long run, city officials say. - -"We've done a great job of building up a new fleet," Mayor Chris Coleman told the newspaper. - -It's estimated that the new streetcar system could save the city as much as $200,000 annually in maintenance by using new-generation electric vehicles instead of traditional steam-powered ones. The streetcar system has also been an economic boon for the city, bringing in nearly three-quarters of a million dollars in revenue during its inaugural year last year with a five-year revenue record of $34.4 million, according to city budget projections for 2016. - -"In many ways, KSTP has been the catalyst for all that," said Rob D'Ambrosio, vice president for finance and administration at the city. - -The city will pay $40 million for KSTP's five-year contract, which includes three years of revenue and five years of maintenance, Dambrosio said, adding that construction is set to begin early next year on the KSTP tracks. - -The track will be built within the vacant lots east of the city's RiverCentre parking garage. - -The streetcar line was originally meant to run from the downtown riverfront to the RiverCentre, but St. Paul officials opted to terminate its streetcar service earlier this year, citing the high cost and the poor condition of the tracks. - -The tracks were supposed to be torn up by 2014 but were delayed by St. Paul's decision to build a new light-rail station at the University of Minnesota. - -"Now that everything is behind us that originally drew people here, it will be about getting the new track laid down and the signal system built up," D'Ambrosio said. - -A $10 million federal grant that was awarded to St. Paul in June will allow KSTP to continue improving the stations at University of Minnesota and the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, while continuing to remove the tracks, in an effort to get them ready before the light rail stops open, a St. Paul city official said. - -KSTP will get the $10 million through a project that was started under former Mayor R.T. Rybak, who took over as mayor last year and had proposed putting in a streetcar to connect downtown with Hennepin County. But the project never went anywhere, with the city choosing instead to run buses along the streetcar line for the first year, instead of the new electric cars. - -The city, county and other organizations are also still working to move the light-rail rail line forward, but a light rail line along Nicollet Avenue and Nicollet Mall is expected to open late next year.<|endoftext|>Still loading... - -A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 - -Loading...

As always, we are asking to make your pick for the top free agent on the market. The big prize this time around is a new three year, $54MM extension for A.J. Burnett. - -For those of you not familiar with the "FIP versus ERA" scale, FIP (Fielding Independent Pitching) attempts to quantify how well a pitcher has pitched and ERA (earned run average) is the amount of runs a pitcher would have allowed had their innings not been stopped for an injury. We've all had "rough" weeks, whether that be having a week where your pitching runs hot or your ERA and FIP line up perfectly like in a perfect game. However, while neither are perfect metrics, they do provide a sense of how close a pitcher's performance was to his underlying average to get a sense of "how good" they were, the ultimate measure of "luck." - -The first time I ran this survey, I asked "If your team had the option to keep your ERA over 100 but you didn't keep your FIP at or under 100, which one would you prefer?" This week, we are adding a "C.I.P. over 100 vs. FIP" option so people can get an idea of what the real difference is between the two, and the results are fascinating! The C.I.P. over 100 team has only 2 wins in 6 attempts. - -It looks like there is actually something to contend with over the next couple of weeks. - -Now for my personal favorite option out of all of the options. FIP + ERA doesn't factor in the catcher's defensive plays, like we've often seen in the past, it also doesn't factor in defense played by the pitchers themselves or when the pitcher has started to get out of control, so it's not a perfect measure, but it's still a damn good barometer. - -It would appear that A.J. Burnett was the best pitcher this past week, or at least he did come closest. On the other end of the spectrum, we have Josh Johnson, Justin Verlander, Chris Sale, and David Price. In the AL East, the only pitcher with a FIP under 100 who is actually getting a lot of "luck" was James Shields, albeit with a low number of starts. - -The Rays are in a battle for first, but they're still in a very good position. The Blue Jays are starting to find their footing and have a bit of a rotation lock in their favor, as they hold a strong hold on one of the division's best arms in Marcus Stroman who, with his FIP under 100, was also the best pitcher this past week! - -This is the longest winning streak since 2003, as both the Orioles and Rays are tied for the top spot. The Blue Jays seem to be doing very well. They have won 4 of their last 5 games, which is tied for 2nd among all teams in the division. Even the bad news for them is that they've won 8 of their last 9 games, which is the 2nd-best win/loss streak in all of baseball. - -The Orioles are 4 games up in the AL East heading into play on Monday. They currently have the lowest runs allowed in the AL this season at 2.84, after only allowing 2.88 last year. That number, of course, is still extremely low, so the Orioles are still in an extremely good position, but we've also seen the team not be a great bullpen in the past, as the 4.45 ERA they're currently sporting could be much worse. Even if the O's did keep a good bullpen together, they are still the 2nd worst reliever-by-opponent ERA in the division. - -The Angels are in a battle for second, but they are now sitting at 5 games out of the first Wild Card spot. This is something the Angels have struggled with all season, something to watch for with their current 5-7 record. They are currently sitting at 5th in FIP/FIP, but also the only team in the division that has no team ERA over 5.1. Their 6th-lowest ERA is an uninspiring 4.69, but they lead the league in runs per game by a wide margin, so they may not be quite as bad as they appear. - -The Mariners have a .524 SLG, and have 4.6 runs more per game than the Mariners' opponents, but have an ERA of 4.61. They also lead the division in team BABIP (.327), and when the team plays its best ball, they do very well, but with an average of 2.92 in the last 4 days, it's pretty apparent the Mariners are not very good. - -The Brewers have won 4 -======================================== SAMPLE 176 ======================================== -The following article is entirely the opinion of Zachary Fardon and does not reflect the views of the Inquisitr. - -I hate to be the one to spoil it for you, but it sounds like this may be the moment you finally have to admit that you don't really buy Hillary's excuse for the Benghazi attacks. - -"I stand corrected," she said at a Sunday fundraiser when someone suggested they might have been a terrorist attack. "The attack in Libya that killed four Americans was a planned attack, not an spontaneous response to some video." - -But that's just not true. A detailed investigation by Fox News found that the attack "appears to have been planned for months in advance." It was launched by a group calling itself Ansar Al Sharia, which has ties to Al Qaeda in Egypt. - -"We believe in Allah Akbar" and "There is no deity but Allah … We have no desire to harm America or any other country, except in defense of Islam, and we aim to defend it." - -Now this isn't the first time Hillary has made a mistake. She was caught out lying over her emails in April of last year, a month before the official campaign launch. - -But what she said two months ago (and what she said again at the fundraiser last night) are far more damning than anything you can claim that could possibly be a mistake. - -In 2014, Clinton spoke at a fundraiser hosted by Terry McAuliffe, who served as governor of Virginia between 2010 and 2014. McAuliffe was the key person in the state who was charged with running Obama's reelection campaign in 2013. Before that, McAuliffe was the Democratic National Committee chair. He served as a fundraiser for Clinton's 2008 bid as well. - -Here are the excerpts from Terry McAuliffe's speech, just in case he didn't realize these words were being used against him in the years to come. - -The United States is more divided than it was eight years ago. This campaign is the first in the modern era in which the entire country gets a fair look at the president and all he is worth… This is a historic election. And I would ask everyone listening tonight, please go out and help your local candidates…I'm just the messenger… - -That's not the only time Clinton talked about her ability to bring the country together after the terrible events at the United States diplomatic annex in Benghazi. - -"Let's remember why the attacks on 9/11 happened," Clinton said at an April rally. "The terrorists were already on our soil before the embassy in Cairo, before the embassy in Benghazi, before the consulate in Benghazi." - -What Clinton failed to mention is that at least three terrorist attacks took place in Egypt on September 11, 2012 in which Americans were killed and several were injured—and that the State Dept. sent out a cable the very next day warning Americans to be watchful because those attacks had been planned before the embassy attack in Libya began. - -In addition, it's important to note that during the attacks, Egypt's ambassador had his embassy attacked by a rocket-propelled grenade, yet not a single government official at the Pentagon sent a cable warning Americans of security threats. - -After those attacks occurred, Clinton went on the tell people in America all about how "we" had to get along like Americans. - -"I know our enemies know how we feel," Clinton said. "And if we act together, if we work together, if we are prepared to stand up to the terrorists, I firmly believe that we can defeat them." - -This is a lie. The only reason terrorists targeted Benghazi was because of the American military helping defend Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. The terrorists attacked Libya because of the American military helping to protect the dictator. - -So in closing, I don't know how the Democrats would justify the attack on Benghazi, but they don't. Not by a long shot. Their attempt to justify their horrible crime by arguing that the people who died were innocent Americans is an insult to America. - -[Image via Gage Skidmore]<|endoftext|>A new study released by a British charity gives insight into the economic consequences of human trafficking in Nepal, and how little is known about the impact human trafficking has on the people of Nepal.

After all, you can't hide Google Now Cards — only the search bar can hide them. - -And while the design is improved, Google has been kind enough to give us some hints and tips for when we're ready to try out all the new changes on our personal Google Now Launcher. - -First, there's a "Lollipop New" badge for Now Launcher, which means that you can update Google Now Launcher to the new version that supports the changes made in Android L starting on March 12, 2015. - -Second, the new icons for Now Launcher are now rounded, since the Android L launcher has the ability to round Android objects. - -And last, the new app drawer and tab layout should be easier to work with now that there's less clutter. - -Now that you know all about the redesign and what this means for you, let me know what you think in the comments section below.<|endoftext|>You can have the same or different kind of work experience for a period of time - -Under the Employment Rights Act 1988 , the minimum length of time that an employee may be required to attend employment, study or training courses is a maximum of 28 calendar days for certain types of work. - -Employment rights - -Minimum periods of notice - -Under the terms of the Employment Rights Act, a notice period cannot be longer than 28 days from when you start work. - -Employees cannot be required to attend an employer's premises for more than 28 days in any one calendar year. - -If you are on a leave of absence (for example, taking leave for pregnancy, long-term ill health or to visit your family or to attend a university), then the length of your leave will be considered and your leave can start as soon as you start the leave. - -Understand a time-and-a-half entitlement - -You are entitled to take an average of an average of 40 hours or more per week (or some hours more) in pay, leave and other benefits (e.g. pensions and overtime) for every two weeks you are employed. - -How does it work? - -An average is calculated as a combined amount of hours worked at different hourly rates, and does not take into account the time you spend travelling or waiting. - -The calculation includes any time you take off for reasons other than work. So a worker who would typically work one day for 11 hours, and does the same job every day for the time between, will get an average of 38 hours a week. - -The law also says a person does not incur a time-and-a-half penalty for work done on public holidays. If you work a 7.45am to 5.15pm shift, then you are entitled to an average of 48 hours -======================================== SAMPLE 178 ======================================== -The U.S. and the E.U. will soon embark on a major plan to overhaul the financial system, aiming to "drastically" speed up the delivery of central bank liquidity. The effort to achieve this will largely be a reworking of E.U. rules. - -The announcement on Monday of the "European Liquidity Regulation Initiative," and the accompanying timetable for the creation of a European Liquidity Agency, will take center stage this month as the E.U. heads into an important summit for financial-market reforms. - -The plan to modernize the E.U.'s approach to liquidation—aside from setting up a new bank resolution authority, called the E.U. resolution financing provider, or E.U.S.F.P.—comes on the heels of the European Central Bank's decision in June to create a pan-European fund to support banks. And the E.U. is no stranger to financial crises. In 2010, it set up a "bail-in" tool—named "bail-in," after the original German Bailiffs' Office—to ensure that financial firms were liquid enough to survive. But despite the complexity and size of these and other financial-market efforts—and the fact that they were conceived in an era when Europe's financial sectors were still thriving—they have largely failed because they rely on the same old approaches, and fail to address the need for effective oversight and regulation. - -Most crucially, both the E.U. and the E.U.S.F.P will rely on rules written well before the 2008 crisis. These include rules governing when and how banks can be closed (i.e., allowed to fail), where and how depositors can take their money and transfer it to another bank, and a rule known as the "living will" for insolvent companies, which will help determine how much a company has to pay to creditors and how many jobs can be cut. - -Yet these rules have to date played a significant role in helping to prevent crises like the 2008 financial meltdown and other recent shocks. - -When banks fail in Europe, depositors typically lose their primary right to have money put into the bank and, instead, become creditors. A bank's creditors can be companies (including pension funds), governments, or other kinds of institutions. After a bank receives a bail-in order, it is unable to use funds such as depositors' funds to pay back its creditors. This usually means that the institution would be forced to declare bankruptcy and either pay its clients' cash out to them or liquidate or close down—something the systemically important institution might never contemplate in today's environment. In such circumstances and with a dead bank, the rest of the credit market is shut down. - -The banking reform proposal set up by the E.U. and the E.U.S.F.P will use the living-will rules to make it far harder for the systemically important to fail. Essentially, in the E.U. they will become a way for regulators to force the largest banks to hand over more of their depositors' funds. If banks get caught with more than a prescribed amount of money, they will be held responsible for paying an additional rate (called a "haircut") at the point of liquidation. - -By contrast, the U.S.F.P. won't do that. Instead, it will place rules for how to make the biggest banks liquid. That will mean, essentially, that banks whose big risks are concentrated in the areas that could take the largest hits will be the ones hit with the higher haircuts. While it's not clear how exactly those risk areas will be defined, regulators would at least like to ensure they take place within certain boundaries—and that the haircuts will correspond with the banks' credit risk. - -As for supervision, it too will fall to regulators in the E.U. and the E.U.S.F.P. to help. The E.U. and E.U.S.F.P. will set and enforce a series of "stress tests" that will evaluate the systemically risky banks. - -These tests would aim to identify the banks most likely to suffer severe stress. By combining the E.U. rules—and the E.U.'s bank resolution authority, the E.U.S.F.P.—with the E.U.'s living will rules, it is likely that regulators in the U.S. and the E.U. would be able to prevent banks like Deutsche Bank or Bank of America, and possibly even U.S. insurers, from going bust. - -Ultimately, though, these two approaches would be very different. One will use the E.U.'s rules and regulations to ensure that the big systemically important banks are very good at running, in the jargon of banking-sector executives, as "systemically stressed." The other approach -======================================== SAMPLE 179 ======================================== -When I was in school, my parents wanted me to go into advertising. However, if it was a career at all, I wanted to be a film editor. I didn't realise that I was gay until I was about 27, and that I was so much more interested in working on film and TV than in advertising – for which I would never have found a place as a film editor. At the time I didn't have any gay role models, so it was something that I was pretty reluctant to pursue until I found myself in a situation where I was asked to do advertising, which I took to very seriously. - - -But in 2011 it was becoming increasingly clear to me that there was a growing divide between the advertising and the films and TV I loved. And I started to think, 'Maybe I shouldn't be so reluctant to approach the film industry now. If I was going to start a film company, I should be a film editor, because that's my natural focus.' But when I was talking to my agent about starting a film company, he was very hesitant to sign me. - - -So I started writing a pitch and I emailed it to several agents, because, you know, I didn't want to ask the wrong agents. I ended up writing the pitch to just one, and it was rejected. When I wrote the pitch to another agency, they were very open to it – the second one I wrote was rejected as well, which kind of knocked me. But I'd done something wrong, so I went back and I wrote that one again, and it was accepted. - - -I'd had a few other rejections before that, but the first one, and that final one were the biggest. So I went to the agency and I said to them, 'If I know you're not going to hire me, and you know I'm not going to accept your rejection, then maybe I'm better off starting my own company.' - - -I remember having a good lunch with my agent and my family and trying to convince them of that. My father in particular thought it was a bad idea. He thought I was putting my life on the line to go outside of my comfort zone. My dad did not have a very welcoming view of the gay community, so there was definitely that resistance. - - -Then, when I went to Cannes to meet my agent, it turned out that he was a gay man so he was supportive. I was very relieved. I remember thinking, 'Thank God, my career is going to have a better chance than mine has'. - - -I guess in that respect there is still this huge gap between the straight mainstream and even the mainstream LGBT community. Which is good! I think the mainstream industry does have a duty of care and it should be able to look at films and TV shows and know that there are people like me and other young people that just want to be creative. - - -I think there is just this idea that there is no room out there, that we are just this weird minority who have to go into hiding to be ourselves. So for it to be taken seriously as part of the industry – and certainly I feel that it is – is a huge achievement and a great sign of change. I would definitely say that that's the right attitude to take towards the gay community. - - -As a young girl growing up in Britain and in Britain around the world, I thought about how you might be different from other LGBT kids, and what you could have brought to the table. - - -I think that young people in general need role models – in particular I'm thinking of things like Pride – to show them that you can be who you really are and still be successful and get on in the world. As an actor, that's the stuff I wanted to talk about most, because I wanted to show kids who were not like me that you could do that. That you could be successful and still be yourself. - - -As a child I didn't have any gay role models, and I used to read about it in the paper. I found the way that gay people were portrayed on screen to be so inaccurate. At one point when I was about seven or eight years old, I had the chance to meet Hugh Grant in West End. I was very much enjoying himself and talking to Hugh and I was chatting to Michael Sheen, and on stage I looked over to the side, and there was a group of kids who were playing 'Carnival' with no adults, and I thought, "Wow, that's great. That's a real life moment." - -It was only when I was 12 years old I was allowed to watch The Phantom of the Opera, so I was lucky enough to see the first gay kiss on film. And I was really surprised by the way in which it was done in the film. Then, when I was 14, I discovered the film The Rocky Horror Picture Show. - - -I have always felt that the way that it was done on film was a fantastic example of showing how a -======================================== SAMPLE 180 ======================================== -We have all experienced that feeling of being overwhelmed by our work, or overwhelmed with the amount of work we have to do. Whether it is our family or our career, it can make us feel as though there wasn't enough to do. However, the answer is actually quite simple: there is always more work to do. When it comes to managing, or just setting realistic priorities of your time, the difference between "too busy" and "not busy enough'' can be the difference between having adequate time to spend with your family and having excessive work. - -As the saying goes, "If you don't have enough time on your hands, how can you give your family enough time?" - -This is especially relevant since work is something you may not necessarily want to be doing all the time. It gives extra work-life balance when you find yourself not feeling comfortable that you have enough time to spend with your family, for instance. - -In order to have a more balanced work and family life, it is important to recognize all the responsibilities you have in your life and all the time you need to spend on these. - -One of the most overlooked responsibilities is caring for each other. Even during the busy holiday season, you need to find time to care for your loved ones. Not only is it important to take care of yourself when you have work and family, but having time to take care of others also helps ensure that you both can have a solid family system in place, and that you feel more connected and bonded to your family. - -When you're running out of time to spend with your family, you'll have to be creative or you may just have to give up. And it might seem like giving up may be the only solution. But don't do it. - -If there is no time for you to take care of others, what is there for others to take care of you? If your spouse is stressed out and can't get much work done, if your children are sick or emotionally exhausted because of the work load, if your boss is upset that you are spending too much time at work, who are you going to turn to for help? What would you do without that kind of support? - -One of the most important lessons I've learned over the past few years is that even if there is a time in your life that is busy with work, you could still use some time to take care of ones and others. The key is to know which responsibilities are most important to you and find a way to make it happen.<|endoftext|>From the moment Mr. Obama took office, Republicans have demanded that he use his powers to undo the actions of Mr. Bush. They have said that unless the Bush administration acknowledged mistakes in the way it handled its wartime policy, a precedent would be set that could allow future presidents to sweep the rest of their decisions away. The administration has balked at that demand, saying there is nothing that can be undone by executive order, and that Mr. Obama and his team are trying to use the judicial process to avoid overreach. - -A judge, Leonie M. Brinkema, in Virginia, last month ruled that a provision requiring the National Guard to help carry out the invasion of Iraq was unconstitutional. Mr. Obama appealed her ruling to the Supreme Court, which on Thursday delayed all legal motions until after the election — but the political furor over the case has not slowed the White House's efforts. - -Photo - -Mr. Obama has also ordered the declassification of the 2002 National Intelligence Estimate predicting that Iraq had an imminent stockpile of weapons, which is closely linked to the case of Abu Ghanima, a Jordanian, who was seized by American troops after allegedly setting his house on fire and shouting that he had weapons of mass destruction. In order to avoid the impression that the Administration had a partisan agenda, his aides released his opinion only after Mr. Petraeus gave it the cautious stamp that intelligence analysts say it deserved. - -Mr. Obama's campaign aides say the decision reflects what they characterize as his policy of focusing on what is most effective, rather than on what is politically acceptable. At a press conference in Washington, David Axelrod, his campaign manager and a close adviser, said he had no regrets about making the Abu Ghanima decision public so soon after it had been announced and that he had "made no secret" what his own view was. - -The president's views are not widely known or fully understood, as his aides made clear in their briefing about them on Wednesday evening, but he has made clear this will be one of the defining issues of his presidency. - -"I think it's important for the public to understand," one senior White House official said, "that we're a country that believes in a separation of powers and the ability of the people to make their own judgments.

The respondents were then asked which candidate they "would most like to see" end up president. - -Of the 500 respondents who said that they would like to sit it out, 37 percent said that Democratic Party candidate Barack Obama, while 36 percent would prefer to see Mitt Romney in the Oval Office. - -Similarly, 33 percent chose former Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Joe Biden, while 23 percent said Republican candidate former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush. - -Only 15 percent of respondents chose former Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano to be the next president while 10 percent selected New York Gov.

The motion by the government is to block attorneys for the family of the shooter, James Holmes, from using information provided by David Carroll, the private investigator hired by the family. - -The reason is quite clear: Carroll's testimony at the pretrial hearing provided critical information to the Justice Department in the form of notes made as part of a federal search warrant to obtain information from the Internet Service Provider. In a separate case, Carroll testified about the notes he made to the FBI in his police investigation. Carroll will be in the witness box today. - -The evidence that Carroll made notes of his conversations with the federal agents in a search warrant application and then passed them on to the Justice Department was critical to the government's case, which was based on a computer he claimed showed the location of the shooting scene, as well as a photograph of the shooting location. - -When Carroll's notes were shown during his testimony at the preliminary hearing, Justice Department attorney Andrew Weissman asked Carroll whether he wrote down "whatever information" he had from the online chats he had with agents in Washington. Carroll stated that he did not. But in the pretrial motion filed by the Justice Department, the federal investigator in the case, Robert Feinberg, stated that the notes made it "impossible to know what was true and what was not." - -So -======================================== SAMPLE 183 ======================================== -What's at stake? - -The House bill will cut $800 million from Medicaid spending.

The House bill plans to use the rest of this money to lower premiums (with a cap on out-of-pocket subsidies), reduce the amount of care Medicaid recipients receive, and limit the amount of inpatient care, especially in rural areas. Medicaid beneficiaries would lose coverage for maternity care and mental health and substance abuse services. Medicaid will be replaced with a new program known as the "State Innovation Grants." In short, the House plan to repeal and replace Medicaid would be replacing the program with a state-created fund to finance other things, like health insurance subsidies or expanding state-based high-risk pools. - -What are some possible outcomes? - -States are still deciding how much money will be available for health care spending. If they use its resources more generously, states could see improvements in Medicaid. But if they use them less aggressively, they could lose money. If states don't make their decisions based on real, not just political, information about a state's Medicaid program, they could end up paying more to poorer Americans in the short term and not getting as much as they could if they had better information. - -State decisions about how much to spend on Medicaid are going to be based on the availability of federal financing. If Congress repeals the expansion of the Medicaid program in 2020, states could expect a much smaller amount of federal financing for their Medicaid programs through 2019. - -Medicaid is still going to be funded. States will have to cover the costs of newly eligible beneficiaries, just as they have been. If Congress reduces the amount of subsidies that recipients receive, Medicaid will be less affordable for these newly eligible beneficiaries. They may well end up going without coverage or having to pay more for their coverage. - -What can the public do? - -You can call your member of Congress at 202-224-3121 and ask them to oppose any bills that would repeal and replace the current law.<|endoftext|>We are a family of four, located in the heart of the beautiful New England region with comfortable, yet convenient close-by areas to a variety of places to eat and get some shopping done.

We wanted a simple way to put the results of our research into one simple statement: No, it doesn't matter if you're an "expert" in mathematics, physics or chemistry; all that matters is if you're an expert in science. - -That might sound simple, but many people still have a hard time believing it. Even scientists can think "You know what, you're right; I'm too busy to actually do science." We felt that the first time we heard it, by a researcher on The Today Show, it became clear. It became clear that the only way scientists would learn was to start doing real science— and that was good news for the "scientific community." We felt that if the public heard the message, then they would be more inspired to take up the mantle of scientific inquiry. So, we set up a series of interactive videos that make it as easy as one can imagine to learn about science. - -If you are still skeptical, we encourage you to watch the videos yourself.

The court did hold that "the Constitution permits not only laws proscribing discrimination, but also laws recognizing and affirming that discrimination." That might suggest that gay marriage and anti-gay discrimination are inextricably tied, but the justices took pains to point out that the Constitution does not require states to allow gay nuptials, and that those couples who wish to wed should just have to go to court to get their marriages approved by the state. The court's opinion in United States v. Windsor was widely seen as a vindication of marriage and the institution of marriage, but it did not say that marriage, nor gay marriage, required legal recognition from states. - -Today, all 50 states have statutes recognizing a marriage from another state that was valid in the state where it was formed, no matter how long or short the time spent in that state. But if you look at the Supreme Court's marriage ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges, you've got another piece of that puzzle. On April 26, 2015, the Supreme Court ruled 5-4, with Justice Anthony Kennedy writing for the majority, that same-sex couples had a constitutional right to marry, regardless of their state of residence at the time. In other words, they weren't bound to a state by one of their neighbors' laws unless the federal law trumped state law. How could the court have ruled the other way when states had not made it clear that gay marriage was unlawful while they did not make clear that it was allowed? The answer might be that all states had made it clear to both straight and gay people that same-sex marriage was wrong, but that gay people didn't know that and couldn't understand that states weren't bound by laws that same-sex couples couldn't enforce even though states had made it perfectly clear that they were not. - -Even before Obergefell, the Supreme Court had hinted at the idea that the constitution does allow laws to be enforced by other means other than the state in which they were passed. In Windsor v. United States, the court asked "what effect, if any, the Fourteenth Amendment has on marriage, a fundamental right in our society." Justice Kennedy had answered "not much," writing, "As with other rights, it is not for this Court to say that a State will have to pay any more heed to the Fourteenth Amendment's protections than it does to its own." - -In other words, Kennedy was acknowledging that the Fourteenth Amendment protects people from having their marriages struck down by the state, but it doesn't prevent the states from recognizing those marriages. The point for the court was not that the Fourteenth Amendment requires states to give marriage rights to same-sex couples, but that states couldn't take away those rights through their laws, which Kennedy called "nothing more than a prohibition on the States' refusal to honor a solemnized marriage that some other State may refuse to recognize." - -In a follow up opinion, Chief Justice Roberts added his own insight to the question: in his view the right to marry is protected under the laws of all states. - -But the question of whether a person can be gay, lesbian or bisexual in some states but not others is not straightforward. If a state allows for civil unions (with the state recognizing gay and lesbian marriage equally), that marriage cannot be revoked by states, but if it does not, then a -======================================== SAMPLE 185 ======================================== -The latest version of the popular iOS app for the iPhone and iPad released on Thursday contains a critical bug which would let the spyware take complete control over your iPhone, according to security experts. - -The new update to the iPhone Threat Hunter, which has been downloaded an estimated 25 million times according to analytics website App Annie, is one of the most popular pieces of software Apple released this year. The version number in the app is 2.4, which makes it one of the most recent updates. - -The update addresses more than three dozen security vulnerabilities revealed in a recent research note from cybersecurity firm Check Point. - -Check Point researchers discovered six serious issues in the latest version of Threat Hunter, which was released ahead of the iPhone 5 launch in September. - -The most serious security flaw, dubbed "Impetukin," is caused by a bug that allows the spyware to compromise iPhones running iOS 5 or higher without a way for the user to detect the problem. - -"This is a very serious bug," said David Moler, security engineer at Lookout, a provider of security products. He said he didn't know of any other security flaw like the one reported by Check Point, although he did say it's possible for an unscrupulous hacker to exploit the flaw. - -For instance, "Impetukin can spy on your calls, SMS messages and emails, see where you are, see when you are at home and when you are out at night," Check Point wrote. - -"So what I think people will want to do is they are going to want to take the iOS device out of the safe mode," Mr. Moler said. - -He recommends disabling the "Find My iPhone" feature on a locked iPhone and locking the device down with a passcode, something he said any savvy user will follow. - -"If you need to, you should be using the Find My iPhone feature to see where it is," Mr. Moler said. - -Another major issue is "Tethering," which allows the iPhone to be remotely exploited or accessed because it allows the spyware to track the device when it is outside of its control, such as while on airport or train travel. Another vulnerability, called "NFC," allows the spyware to intercept payments made with the phone. - -Another major flaw is "Impetukin," which Check Point said "can hijack phone calls by eavesdropping on the phone number and listening to the conversations inside the phone," causing the phone to constantly ring or send text messages, according to a blog post from Check Point. - -"This could allow someone to take control of your phone and possibly intercept or view information. It also can potentially cause you to get a call, text, voicemail, or send you a text or email." - -The vulnerability was disclosed by cybersecurity firm Check Point as a "bug report" on its website and was announced by Apple. - -"You can find the CVE IDs for those vulnerabilities by going to About Security in Settings and tapping the About vulnerability section," an Apple spokesperson told CNET. - -Some versions of iOS are vulnerable while others are not, according to Check Hill. However, the majority of users are on iOS 5. The vulnerability affects a handful of third-party apps that are linked to the iPhone's "Find My iPhone" feature, according to Check Point. The apps were not distributed by Apple. - -The flaw and the bugs reported in the latest version of Threat Hunter are only a few of the vulnerabilities that have emerged since the most recent release. In late December, Apple fixed a flaw that was allowing the creation of secret folders on its iOS devices, a problem that allowed people to access sensitive files and files on a user's computer. And last week, Apple released a free tool called iOS Device Health, which gives anyone with Apple's iPhone a real-time alert of the battery condition of their iPhone. - -But one thing you probably can't do with any of these flaws is spy on an iPhone without knowing it. Check Point also pointed out that the iPhone is not a computer or a mobile device. In other words, the spyware would not have to be turned on to access your iPhone or make use of apps, as it does on Macs. - -"It would be technically possible to create an Android or Blackberry variant of these apps that would take over a Mac, a Blackberry, or a smartphone, but it would not be feasible for them to do so because the phone is not a computer or mobile device," Mr. Moler said. - -Related stories:<|endoftext|>The only way to get to "the Promised Land" of happiness is to leave the safety of your comfort zone and explore unchartered territory. - -The more people on Reddit, the more I learn. - -The site hosts a wide variety of social activities including gaming, memes, comedy and a huge number of other community sites. - -This is one of my many discoveries in what appears to be -======================================== SAMPLE 186 ======================================== -"In the first place, the people would not have voted for me if they thought they were getting a puppet.

"For a variety of reasons, the climate has changed over the last century and will continue to change as new sources of greenhouse gases are developed, electricity generation, transportation, and industrialization increase." - -The state's climate change policies are "ill-conceived," according to the group's lawsuit, "and have been adopted without sufficient public review, much less a reasoned determination that the changes were required." - -New Hampshire recently filed for Chapter 9 bankruptcy protection. In its filing the state claims that it can't get its finances in order because they are so heavily burdened by its high debts, as well as the "cost of defending" itself in court. - -Advertisement - -The state's efforts to combat climate change — which also include legislation that forces businesses that emit greenhouse gases to pay a $50,000 per day tax — have sparked criticism.

I have given several responses, all of which are variations on 'I can't think of anything else'. Some friends have asked me why I never talk about the movie. Most would say because it is obviously my favourite film. In short: I don't have the capacity to articulate the reasons why being in the movie is superior or why it is worthy of any kind of serious examination. But, if you are a 'true fan' and are looking for a little piece of information about the films and the people involved, this should help. - -"Lebowski" is about the relationship between Mr. Lebowski and his high school friends, a group of people who are just as confused as he is. At their core, they have much in common (their teenage sex-craziness, their love for video games, their inability to see eye to eye on a bunch of issues, the need to be able to take care of an older man in their lives). But that's not a bad thing. When you think about it, it's really a fascinating set of relationships. - -One of the most notable characters, as the movie progresses, is Wendy (Maureen O'Hara). She becomes his new best friend. She's the one with the most in common with him, the one who knows how to have a simple conversation, a simple meal, whatever can make both of them laugh. And, if you take a closer look at the relationship, you realize that when there is tension, she has to step in and do it. She is the one who can make it all feel more real, who will always pick him up when he's down. This is the same with all of the other characters: they're just as confused as he is, and they need the help of someone, anyone, to make it all go away. - -"The Dude" (John Goodman), on the other hand, is the most likeable character for a lot of different reasons. He's the one who is most comfortable with letting go of his life in 'Big Lebowski' terms, the one who can really talk about his problems. Even in that scene in the laundromat, when he says that his best friends are now "my family", all the way through in the final scene, he doesn't seem to care if anyone will hear him (he's the ultimate 'good friend'!). - -To a great degree, the film is about Mr. Lebowski's relationship with his own self in 'Big Lebowski' terms. "The Dude" is also someone who feels disconnected from the world. That isn't a bad thing: it also leads to him, through his 'big' adventures in the movie, to a deeper understanding of life. The first time he sees 'The Dude', he sees a familiar kind of 'self', a man with issues, a problem. And so he comes to understand that maybe The Dude is him, the problem that he is trying to solve. And we see that through the final scene where he gets the chance to finally meet The Dude. For the first time, we see The Dude not as an obnoxious drunk, a complete loser for whom there will never be a normal moment in his life, but rather this man, who is trying to understand the world and who is trying, in his own way, to be a good person. The moment when the two are standing together, their eyes meet, the Dude says something like "You're not the one who's trying to make it better. You're the one who was sent to make things better", that's that connection that the movie is all about. - -This is the reason why if you ask me to go into "The Dude" as a person, I would rather go in with that statement entirely in mind. I could probably just come out and say that "The Dude" is a man who has a problem with his own humanity, that sometimes he has the urge to be like Mr. Lebowski, to be "that man", but it doesn't really add a lot to what the movie has to say. A movie can certainly tell you what a man should be like, but sometimes you have to think of a person on their own merits. You must not always look for a quick and easy explanation for anything. As The Dude says, it's "funny when he gets it right, but he has a hard time getting it off his chest." There's a scene where he has this 'awkward moment', trying to tell his wife, and she just doesn't grasp what he's talking about - she's always thought that she could understand him. - -But then The Dude also has a hard time getting the right thing across, in his own way, through his language.

This time, I want to talk about the results! The results of your votes have been added to this article. Please read on… - -In the end, the only thing we could come to the conclusion was that there was no way we could please EVERYONE. We could just as well have picked something totally random and agreed upon by the entire staff, but that is only a little better than us being wrong the whole time. In many cases, there was really only one winner and that was our little girl. That being said, we decided on this one girl for a few major reasons. First of all, she's the oldest of the three of us, which makes her more mature. Second, I'm a big fan of her personality. Third, she looks kind of like… - -You know what I'm going to say, right? I just… It's pretty much like this picture. - -Now that I'm done speaking, here is how our three girl chose to pick their three favorites. - - -1. The girl who looked the best in pictures - -2. The guy who looks the coolest - -3. The guy whose voice reminded them of someone they know - - -But we all admit… our favorite is obviously our little chick, so I guess I will get to her then. That's right, she is back. In case you're not interested in her in a photo, that is totally OK! Also, you're not my mother, so make of that what you wish. - -Well, since we all know what you're all thinking… what does your favorite one look like? Well, that is where our magical "random guessing" comes in. Let's get started! - -So let's start from the front of the stage! - -The first question: "Which one do you like the most?" - -Well, we had the first choice. Well, at last count, we had 6 girls and as you can see, the vast majority of you voted for our tiny, but oh so pretty little angel. The only girl we had to get right is the adorable lady at the bottom of this post. - -From top to bottom: - -The one above my Mom. I loved when we decided that we would make sure none of the girls had a boyfriend, because we figured that would allow us to get a better idea of what kind of guys each of them was into. - -The guy who looks like the president of the United States. I have to say, when I first saw him, I thought "D'oh! This one's going to take the whole staff to pick." But once we got all of the votes in, I realized he really is the best one. - -My favorite girl for the whole staff in a photo, by a landslide. Also, we all know my favorite because I have been showing people this photo and everyone asks me for my favorite one. - -The one my mom's boyfriend gave her. I honestly think that the best part of this picture is the look on her face that says "Please, not this dude." - -My personal favorite of the three. I guess I have to put the one closest to me because she looks more like me than any of the other three. She can do both a sexy one like this or one I would put my finger on, like this. - -Our friend in the middle, a sexy little thing. I have to say, the only thing she has better than her mother is her girlfriend's girlfriends. At least that's how I picture it. - -And finally, our favorite. We are all pretty sure these three would make the perfect girlfriend. - -Now that we've gotten the rest of the staff to sign some permission slips and put on their favorite pose, let's move inside… - - -As I mentioned before, the staff was all pretty much unanimous in their pick. - -In the front row: - -A lovely blonde girl that looks like an Erika Larsen-like person - -A tall, sexy brunette with this one shot - -A small Asian girl that looks a little like a girl but has legs like mine - -And finally, another blond girl who looks like her in my mom's picture… - -At the back of the stage: - -A girl who looks like her in a photo so her mom could look pretty good when she gets caught - -Now that I know all the staff is there, I'll give you a sneak peak at some possible poses they might have in mind for our 3 newest girls. - -Let's see if anyone notices anything. - - - -======================================== SAMPLE 190 ======================================== -In the last six months, the world has been thrown into the unprecedented debate about the possibility of a global financial meltdown. A lot is at stake, and we need to know what it all means. - -To explain, I've put together a list of the key questions — some serious, some trivial — to be answered when we're faced with such a situation: - -Is this a bubble or not? How big is the bubble? Are we approaching a systemic failure in the global economy? What are the long-term systemic risks posed by this crisis? Is this the beginning of something big in the world economy, or has it already reached a breaking point? - -To answer these questions, it's helpful to recognize some of the core problems of financial markets — both in their ability to respond to short-term pressures and in their ability to provide a fair, stable and predictable environment for the long term of investments, loans and contracts. - -In the context of a financial crisis, a real crisis - -It is important to acknowledge that no single event or phenomenon is responsible for the rise of the financial sector. Rather, its role is to act as a facilitator for short-term, financialized impulses through the creation of artificial scarcity and through a system of trust between creditors and debtors at the same time. - -In so doing, it creates the illusion that we are living in a world where we can rely on trust to ensure the future will be better than our forebears were able to predict in the very first place. (Of course, there is often a lack of trust in the future — or at least an absence of trust — but that's an issue that can be left for another day.) - -Moreover, as the recent economic crisis in the US has shown, financial intermediation and bubble financing — the latter based on the creation and then collapse of the real estate sector — can create systemic risk and instability as we've seen in recent financial crises in Ireland, Spain, Ireland, Australia and the US. - -The key to understanding the nature of a financial crash is to understand that it's a real event that can be prevented, not prevented by "market logic" or "capitalism." It can and has been triggered by factors such as a mis-priced asset, market manipulation or outright fraud, but it is not a natural event, and there are no inevitable or universal laws that govern this process. - -This has many implications for the debate on whether the current financial crisis could be the beginning of something big as a broader financial meltdown, or whether it constitutes no systemic risk. - -The financial crash at the turn of the millennium was triggered, with significant systemic implications, when a group of Chinese investors went on a credit binge during the 2000s, which, among other things, precipitated a fall in the exchange rate between China and the US dollar resulting in a dramatic increase in the value of the US dollar. - -This was not a result of a market-generated price correction or market manipulation. Instead the problem was a fundamental change with respect to the nature of Chinese credit. For many Western institutions involved in the real-estate market at the time, this is the exact "systemic" risk that they warned of. - -That China has since stopped the credit bubble is also a "normal" event, but it was not a market-driven "market correction." Chinese banks did not act as intermediaries and instead became a full-scale issuer of credit; however, these were ultimately backed by China's currency and China's banks were not themselves the financial institutions involved in the credit bubble. - -In our view, this type of financialization in itself is not the primary risk that we need to worry about; rather it is the risk that such an event is allowed to go unanswered, which results in unintended consequences: rising credit and asset prices; financial instability in the world economy; and the end of financial market confidence, due to lack of trust. - -A systemic failure at the beginning of a crisis - -While the events of 2008 were indeed a "system" failure, it had different origins. - -One of the primary lessons that should be learned from it for future financial crises and their potential systemic effects is that financial crises don't merely happen randomly; they need to be anticipated. - -In other words, we have to anticipate the next crisis so that we can act if it does occur. That way, our response does not become counterproductive or worse. - -In my view, an additional danger for the current crisis is that it may have been an internal financial crisis — that is, a crisis in or leading to the financial markets. - -When the financial crisis of 2008 broke, it affected different institutions in different areas of the financial system. And for many of them, the event created systemic risks as well as issues in their own operations. - -For example, Lehman brothers, the investment bank of which Jamie Dimon was executive chairman, was a key participant in the financial market ecosystem that became increasingly dependent -======================================== SAMPLE 191 ======================================== -A study published in the journal Applied Mathematics and Computation (AMCS) finds that when a mathematical construction is coupled to a particular type of data, it can give you the most precise model of that data. In this case the data might be information, like images in an image database, or something different: the location of a person on a map. - -The construction we used was Gaussian mixture models. Likelihood analysis is used when we don't know the data; we just need some estimate of how they change over time, typically when an observation has been made, or an observation has already been made and we don't know what it's going to be like next time. In particular, we need to understand some kind of "mixing of noise" as a model for the data, which is what gives our theoretical model its power for understanding that data. - -The key insight is that we can use the combination of our model (the one that is the best, based on our model predictions), our observations (images or locations) and our noise (what is outside the noise) to get a model of some kind for the data. - -By coupling our model to the data we are getting accurate estimates for a very specific kind of information at a very specific data size. - -To understand what could be driving the observation that the location of someone on the map changes over time, suppose we have no idea what the data means, and we use Gaussian Mixture Models that are good at modeling noise. If we try to fit a model to those observations, we get really good estimates for the location of people on the map, but we don't know how to understand those estimates. - -To see this in context, suppose we have a large dataset with about a billion labels (for example, the labels of images in an image database, each label is an observation). That dataset has lots of images to represent. Then we fit a normal model to them. Then we see what that fits best. - -For that, we can just look at the estimates as we go, but when applying that to something very specific like a location on the map, we should be looking to see if those were the right estimates, not just averages from all images. So, here's the question: - -Can we use the models we see in the statistics on that dataset to understand how our location is changing over time? By "really understand," we mean that we should be seeing, in addition to the standard statistics (like x+1 or the mean), an estimated new location that is the same as the estimated previous location except with the new location added. So, how accurately can we estimate how people on the map are changing over time, even if we don't know their absolute values? - -In particular we think we should be able to calculate the "mean shift," which is the average difference between the previous and new location. That should give us a way to understand what we're saying about a person in that location (and can also tell us which labels are most helpful). - -To get the details for how to estimate that shift, I thought I'd write an article for this post. I also thought these calculations could help illustrate a particular way in which Bayesian techniques can give us a very precise model for very specific information. In fact, it's a type of inference that can give you a very precise model even for a much finer-grained set of information. - -It also gives us a way to understand why many machine learning algorithms don't make predictions that are a great improvement on random guesses. The algorithm doesn't know about the noise, and therefore misses the shift. - -My analysis is based on two main ideas: the first is that a lot of things can give you a good idea how much something has changed over time, even if you don't know anything about the data behind or about the noise. The second is that there's a simple relationship between how accurate a mathematical model is for one kind of data and how accurate one is at a much finer level of detail (or sometimes at the level of a small subset of data). - -Let's look at an example that will give us more idea of the ideas. Here's a dataset of coordinates of an image with the color red. Then, for each label, we have some of the images showing an image with the same color (I chose the same color for simplicity). For these two images, in the same time interval, there's a mean shift of the center that is the same in both images: - -So, this is an image and label pair. Let's look at how accurate this model is at estimating the mean shift: - -The error is less than 1, so it's not very good. Then, suppose that there are four images of the center, and they each look like this; that's a pretty good model for the mean shift: - -The error is about .1, giving it a very good model; on top of the two -======================================== SAMPLE 192 ======================================== -The New York Post reported that the NFL is investigating Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's contract.

However, on March 27, CBS anchor Bob Orr reported that the league was investigating whether the report stated the Patriots knew about deflategate. Orr quoted a source stating, "The league says it's still investigating, but there was a point during the investigation that they looked at it, and it seems like there was some level of knowledge, that they're trying to follow up on." - -According to the report, Wells could not determine if there was evidence the Patriots knew about the deflation of game balls. Wells could not determine if the Patriots knowingly underinflated the balls, something Goodell said in his September press conference. - -In a statement posted to the league's website, the commissioner said Brady's suspension was "long overdue." - -The following is the full statement. - -"Tom Brady's suspension was long overdue and serves as a reminder that cheating always has a face, and it is always our duty to find out who is doing it. I can assure you that we have done just that. The NFL conducted a thorough and independent investigation based on the information they had when they initially began their investigation. - -"As the commissioner noted in yesterday's press conference, the investigation determined that footballs prepared by our staff for the AFC Championship Game met the standards that are set forth in the league's competitive rules. I have spoken briefly with Commissioner Goodell regarding this matter, and he knows that the integrity of the game is our responsibility. He is committed to it and fully expects the Patriots to cooperate fully with the league in any investigation that they may face. We want to assure everyone that we are cooperating fully with the authorities to provide as much information as we can so they can determine the exact cause of this situation."<|endoftext|>A couple of days ago a bunch of the older mods started reporting that the website where the mod download links are stored has changed and has been made a lot more secure. That is the thing I think about the most that the community has lost with the recent downtime. To me it's also a thing I don't think about too much. The more I think about it though the more I realize that the fact that something like that can affect a lot of modders, and is apparently the most basic service of a mod hosting site is something to keep in mind. - -The idea of the original mods is to do stuff by hand and make the process of adding/removing stuff a bit more fun and enjoyable than just simply using the official tool. Of course, these days tools like Steam Workshop don't come with a ton of support but if you have a really good mod and you want to share it with the rest of the communities, that is something you can do by hand. This has made modding modders and people who upload content to the internet a rather complicated thing. - -There are countless mods that have been created and created and then just forgotten about, but one of the reasons why the community is so good at modding is because it's a lot of work. If one could just add it to the launcher all of it would be handled for you. - -You have mods that are more than just a skin, like some of the ones shown off with the mod spotlight and some of the "classic" mods which add new functionality or even new games. However, even some classic mods might have no idea how to add support for it in their own engines as they have not been ported to newer games, which leads to a lot of stuff "not being possible". When the game you are working on is built using a different engine/toolkits, you have to port each game individually if you would like to support the "classic" mods that are ported over. Some of the older mods might be built specifically for the engine/toolkit you are using, meaning one has to make custom support files. This makes building mods a lot more difficult than simply building standalone projects. - -What you are left with at the end is a "perfect storm" scenario which leaves no mod maker happy except the publisher of the game. This would seem to me to leave no modder behind, but as the mods get bigger -======================================== SAMPLE 193 ======================================== -In February 2008, the US embassy in Beijing reported that Chinese students studying in a US university had filed a formal complaint with the Chinese Consulate General in Baltimore, Maryland, and to the US Department of Education alleging "religious and political indoctrination" at the University of Maryland. The complainants accused the university of violating US religious freedom law, which states: - -"Nothing in the laws of the United States shall be construed to prohibit or restrict any of the following: religious beliefs; religious activities; or the teaching or practice of religion or religious beliefs or political views on such topics as government, government policies, and social policies. The free exercise of religion and the free exercise of speech, and of the press and other forms of communication, are fundamental principles of a democratic society. " - -The "religious and political indoctrination" allegations were part of a larger investigation, begun on January 18 and ending on March 7, into allegations that there were "institutional and individual acts that discriminate or appear to discriminate on the basis of religious affiliation or belief" at the university. - -The U.S. Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights sent a warning to the university in the form of eight pages of "concerning" documents regarding the investigation. Some of the documents cited in the OCR letter were "unredacted" and available only on private server of the Office of Civil Rights, while others bore dates and signatures of officials. In a series of letters that accompanied its "determinations" on the university's compliance with US law, OCR alleged that the "institutional practices of harassment, mistreatment and retaliation for religious beliefs" by a number of university employees and administrators constituted "inherently religious offenses against [student] plaintiffs." - -In the letter, dated March 4, 2008, OCR wrote: - -"Our review revealed many instances of anti-religious conduct and mistreatment that occurred during this investigation. Specifically, at the University, a number of anti-religious acts took place, including: harassment by University officials (e.g., refusing students, student associations, and student groups access to events and resources); failure to respond to complaints by students; refusal to cooperate with OCR's investigation and/or provide information that the OCR requested to determine possible violations; and other forms of retaliation such as demotion or dismissal based on religious belief." - -The university later "disclosed" these allegations in public statements by President Robert Zimmer and Vice-President for Student and Academic Affairs John McCaw, both of whom acknowledged the investigation but did not address specific allegations of religious discrimination in any way. The university also posted on its website a letter, in which Zimmer acknowledged that the complaint "underlies the University's response to it in some respects" but failed to address those aspects of the complaint that had not already been addressed by the university as part of a comprehensive investigation into the university. As it turned out, in response to the complaint, the University had conducted an investigation of some of the same allegations in May 2007. - -After the university "disclosed" the allegations involving students and their alleged "institutional and individual acts that discriminate or appear to discriminate on the basis of religious affiliation or belief," the university "adopted additional policies and procedures" that were intended to improve its relationship with "religious groups who want to participate in student activities at the University." Although the University of Maryland "agreed" that the "intimidating or intimidating conduct by University officials," as listed in its March 5, 2008, policies and procedures, "taken in the context of religious exercise," would fall under the definition of "religious harassment" by the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment, the University of Md. did not offer evidence in response to the OCR letter that such "intimidating or intimidating conduct" is a violation of the Free Exercise Clause. As a result, OCR ruled that the violations cited in the March 5, 2008, policies and procedures, as well as the university's failure to adopt a response that dealt with the specific allegations cited in its letter, constituted discrimination based on religion under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. - -The OCR letter and related documents were the basis of a civil rights lawsuit in which the plaintiffs alleged that the University's handling of religious discrimination complaints constituted a "hostile environment" that deprived them of their constitutional rights of free exercise and free expression. One plaintiff in the federal lawsuit is a student and member of the Concerned Student 1950 group, whom OCR determined "discriminated, harassed and intimidated religious students, including his Christian group's leader" in a manner which was not permitted by the university's policies and procedures to exist. The suit also involves two current faculty members—including a former dean of the School of International Service—who are alleged by the plaintiffs who filed the lawsuit to have participated in the university's alleged discriminatory acts against the plaintiffs. - -The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Maryland (Eastern District of Maryland — E.D. -======================================== SAMPLE 194 ======================================== -Rudy Giuliani told Donald Trump at a private White House dinner last evening that he didn't know anything about Michael Flynn's Russia connections, after Flynn was forced to resign. Giuliani said he did not know because Flynn had previously said he didn't remember the dinner. This is not exactly a denial of Flynn's actions and Giuliani's comments appear to be nothing more than an attempt to put a positive spin on what Flynn did in regards to Russia as opposed to an outright cover-up. This should come as no surprise after what we have seen from President Trump on multiple occasions. If the President knows who his administration is hiding from, it's not to his country's benefit and perhaps it's more to his own benefit. The more important question, though, is why are those in the administration so afraid of being caught lying about something so important? - -There is no doubt that the administration would have preferred to keep the truth about Flynn's activities with Russia secret and in the darkness. Flynn's dismissal, after all, could have opened the door for the FBI to investigate these ties, even if Flynn hadn't actually been caught attempting to hide them. Perhaps this will all come out in the next month, but one thing is certain: there is much more Russia-related information that will be revealed before Trump's "loyalty" is satisfied next month. - -This article (Rudy Giuliani Claims Michael Flynn's Russia Ties Were Never Discussed at Dinner) originally appeared on ZeroHedge.com and was used with permission.

Some Internet personalities have spent more time than others on this site, but I'm looking through a recent batch of e-mails that the staff has been receiving. (I'm not the source of these e-mails. Just some of the e-mails I'm looking through. And I'm not a particularly prolific person, either. But I think it's nice to see those e-mails coming in.) I don't have a point of view. I'm just looking at what some Internet folks are getting themselves into when they create web accounts that have "personal" names, and the e-mail systems that send out these accounts. - -It appears we're all in a state of confusion. Why are some folks spending a lot of times making e-mail account names and e-mail addresses with special characters, and others not so, or at all? And why is this happening to a fairly large percentage of the e-mail systems that we all enjoy? If you don't want to be confused, then don't set your e-mail system's name as being a special "personal" name. Just take your username and a number, such as "sigtul", and use that for your e-mail. It doesn't get any more personal than that. - -UPDATE: As it turned out, I'd been dealing with this for a while. We do have the ability to edit the system name that most people see, but we need to get everybody on board to see that. After lots of people got back to me about this, I decided to start a survey to get more feedback on it. I did a little more digging through the e-mail accounts of e-mail folks, and came up with another 10 or so names that we're still seeing. I've gotten a number of responses, most of which have confirmed the e-mail addresses as being for real, but there are a few that haven't. My advice to the individuals named in these e-mails is to keep digging, especially if their e-mail address is the same as theirs on the various mailing lists you subscribe to. We're starting to see how it changes over time as well - this might change. Please don't be discouraged and let me know if you've seen similar e-mail addresses in any of the e-mail systems you use. It can all just be a case of new names and e-mail addresses being born at a time. Thanks for reading: if you'd like to see just how many e-mail addresses are being set at special names, you can take a look at the e-mail addresses that have been created since I set up this page.

By inserting a DNA "recipe" into a bacterial genome, it's now possible to create working computing cores made from genetic material, as it were. - -Advertisement - Continue Reading Below - -The approach is an extension of previous efforts to add an artificial "thinking" component to computer processors like the Intel Celeron. That's still far too slow. Instead, the new development -======================================== SAMPLE 195 ======================================== -The idea the government should have a say about the internet's future is controversial, but for a short time the government seemed to go along with it. In 2000 the government passed Net Neutrality, a set of laws that ensured the internet could be free from discrimination. - -Net Neutrality supporters said the laws protected the freedom of the internet and kept it open. Opponents, however, said those laws were a barrier preventing the public from being able to access content online while remaining anonymous. - -So what is wrong with net neutrality? - -Let me count the ways. First, some people believe this law will allow broadband companies to increase their profits by slowing down content that they don't agree with, or by not upgrading their network for faster services. Second, as a result of the new law, internet service providers are required to treat everyone equally, regardless of the website or service they use. There is no one's right or wrong here—if somebody uses the internet to send a file, you should be able to get it as well as the other guy. - -As a result, net neutrality advocates claim, a company will be allowed to slow down sites that they don't like, or charge more for access to content on certain websites. Those companies are going to get even richer and more powerful as Internet Service Providers (ISPs) begin to give them new control over how people access content. - -ISPs also are afraid that by imposing such regulations, the government will come to the rescue and regulate the industry in a way it wants to. They think ISPs will be more likely to start blocking traffic to certain websites and slow down traffic for others. But the reality might be more complex. It might happen that the government regulates ISPs more leniently than they would by a court order. - -Third, the net neutrality laws are not working. The law is in place but not working. The internet is more open than ever but we still have a number of people who want to block sites such as Facebook. And we have a number who just want to slow down certain websites. So a lot of people are not happy with our current situation and what the government is trying to do with the law. - -There is one last problem with net neutrality. The laws are flawed and not working. So instead of fixing the law, the government is trying to dismantle it. The plan to abolish open internet is out there. In June President Obama tried to get Congress to stop the FCC from passing net neutrality legislation on their own. The FCC said that President Obama would not veto that piece of legislation, but they were unable to get the bill passed under the current Congress. - -However, Obama did not try to kill or repeal it, but he let it die. And to be clear, the laws he voted for were already in place. Instead, he is trying to change it into something he doesn't like. It's as if he doesn't want to be responsible and enforce the laws himself. - -What should be changed? - -The current laws have failed to deliver what the supporters of the original net neutrality laws said they would. The FCC passed a new version of net neutrality last week. The FCC will now ban providers from blocking or slowing down traffic for a specified period of time each month. That would give consumers more choice as to what sort of internet services they are able to get. - -This would be a better way than trying to kill or repeal the existing open internet law. - -But that may not be enough. In recent months the FCC has been working on more regulations. They want to prohibit companies from interfering with each other's traffic and from charging more to use some types of content. They also want companies to ensure that other websites that might be in the same physical neighborhood as the one they are already using are not throttled so fast they are slow. - -So if these are just temporary changes, those who are against net neutrality should say those are insufficient. - -We also agree with President Obama that there are some areas the US government can't meddle in. For example, health care and education. - -But internet access is part of the US economy. Some of us should be concerned that the government might become more powerful than the people. What would happen if your internet provider started favoring one site over another? What if it became illegal to have an open internet? What if a private company could start blocking your access to some websites? - -What if you don't like something about the existing net neutrality law, or think there are better ways to fix it? Why should you let the government decide on it? - -We think there are better ideas for changing the current laws. One would be to try and change the law to encourage more competition in the industry by setting up some kind of public/private partnership. - -We think there are other ideas out there to change the laws and create healthier internet for everyone. So please share with us your own suggestions. - -You can find us and other interested people on -======================================== SAMPLE 196 ======================================== -A major theme of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) was "Stronger Together" — a message both Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders have used to motivate their crowds, especially their young supporters. - -However, a recent Washington Post analysis found that Clinton had an advantage — roughly 1.5 million more pledged delegates than Bernie Sanders. Moreover, Clinton won 590 delegates outright; Bernie Sanders had 487; and 528 were allocated based on results from the remaining state caucuses. - -These results indicate that the race continues to be a coin toss as the two candidates battle for the pledged delegate count ahead of the convention's July 25th. Here are the numbers from the Post's analysis: - -For Clinton, that would represent a net increase of 0.07 percent from what Sanders would get for his pledged delegates and states combined. However, it would represent only 0.01 percent of the total number of pledged delegates. - -When we factor in the effect of superdelegates on the pledged delegate count, Clinton gets 0.066 percent more pledged delegates than Sanders in total with superdelegates taking account. - -In other words, Sanders gets roughly 3.5 million extra pledged delegates — about 1 percent of the 2016 total. - -As we've already observed, this does not necessarily mean Clinton is inevitable in the Democratic Party or will end up with the nomination in Philadelphia.

And the bank says the outlook is worsening because of rising uncertainty over the Trump administration's plan to overhaul the U.S. tax code. - -Ahead of the speech to Congress in May, the Fed warned the economy could face a negative shock from a U.S. infrastructure spending plan. Economists had forecast a slight slowdown in spending at the start of next year. - -Ahead of the speech, one Fed official speculated the speech would cause "considerable economic uncertainty, probably for a while and potentially more than a year." - -Related: Fed's Yellen: The real unemployment rate is a 'dwarf... and not 10% - -The Fed also lowered its forecast for inflation from 2.8% to 2.2%, due to more uncertainty regarding the Trump administration's plans to overhaul trade policy. - -In a research note, Wells Fargo economists, including Michael Gapen, Stephen Roach, and David Bloom, said this was the most serious downgrade since the Fed moved to raise rates in December 2015. - -"At 5.4% year over year, inflation appears to have already slipped back into the Fed's 'expect' range, and is also just barely in the 'neutral' range," the Wells Fargo economists said. - -Related: Trump won't be able to pass trillion dollars in tax cuts any time soon - -If the Fed is wrong in its prediction of a slowdown in economic growth, it could increase investors' fears. But it also could help keep inflation in check, which could give some comfort to the Fed. - -Gapen said this scenario would bring "some disquiet to the monetary policy committee." - -The bank also lowered its long-term inflation estimate from 3% to 2.5%, while raising its short-term inflation estimate from 1% to 1.5%. - -Gapen estimated the inflation outlook is still "considerably stronger than would be ideal, as the policy stance is still clearly accommodative in light of the economic growth projections and the projected path of the inflation rate."<|endoftext|>A Florida man has been indicted for making threats against the president's daughter. - -Ronald Jones III, 44, of Hollywood, Fla., had been accused of saying he would kill Malia Obama because the president's daughter "smelled like pot," according to prosecutors in the eastern district of New York. - -Mr Obama's teenage daughters — Malia, 13, and Sasha, 11 — have appeared in numerous pictures and videos posing with their father. - -Mr Obama has frequently joked about his daughters' love of school and "girl stuff".<|endoftext|>The -======================================== SAMPLE 197 ======================================== -BENGALURU: As the Indian space agency (ISRO) plans to boost its civilian workforce by 25% by June 2017, it has also been roped in by the local government to hire a few hundred junior employees to perform basic scientific and engineering support.

The last 4-5 days (with 2 of them being very early) have seen a huge spike in player activity - it is currently 10% higher when compared to normal. I don't believe this is due to the new expansion - there has been no massive influx of people playing.2. The average level on all realms is currently around 10. So this probably means that the game still has quite a bit of people to increase it.3. If you check the top bar there are players of each level.

The memorandum, which has been reported on only sporadically, applies to "anyone" whom the government has "reason to suspect" of engaging, or is suspected of engaging, in certain terrorist activities. "This includes organizations, groups, and individuals involved in international terrorism or activities related to terrorism," the memorandum explains. - -In other words, the government has the power to surveil any American engaged in any kind of foreign or domestic activity that is deemed "suspicious" by its secret, classified interpretation of domestic activities that are considered "subversive." - -Such a broad definition of "terrorist activity" provides the justification for broad surveillance by the National Security Agency, including electronic intercepts of Americans' communications without their consent. - -"The purpose of the order is to protect the national security by promptly responding to suspected terrorist activity," the memorandum continues, noting that it is "only for the duration of the emergency and it is withdrawn at the earliest possible time." This is an extraordinary claim, intended to be an absolute bar against any further investigation of the surveillance. - -The memorandum provides another troubling explanation for the existence of the NSA's domestic spying apparatus. The document's preamble claims that the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 (FAA) was enacted after then-Senator Barack Obama threatened to filibuster the FISA bill "because it would undermine our ability to prevent terrorist attacks in the United States." - -President George W. Bush claimed that the FAA was motivated by the "vague provisions" of the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act of 1994 (CALEA). The FAA, however, was not passed in response to CALEA, but rather a year after it expired — and its provisions were made permanent as part of the FAA. As the New York Times previously reported, it's the result of that "vagueness" that has allowed the NSA's expansive domestic spying program to flourish. - -Under the Obama administration, the NSA's activities have evolved into a "pervasive, pervasive" surveillance state, including its collection of virtually all domestic and international communications, according to the former senior Bush administration official. - -The memo, issued in 2008, was declassified on January 27. The FISA Court, under the direction of the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), has allowed the agency to gather vast amounts of Americans' information. The new memorandum confirms that this process continues. - -The document also demonstrates that the NSA has no problem using its extraordinary powers to target and investigate members of political organizations that "pose a threat to national security." - -In addition to monitoring political opponents who may pose a "threat to national security," the NSA has maintained that it can monitor "a broad set of organizations that may otherwise be excluded from" the agency's surveillance powers, such as organizations that are "involved in terrorism or activities related to terrorism." - -Such a broad definition of "terrorist organization" gives the agency leeway to surveil and undermine the activities of any organization that poses a "threat to national security." This includes organizations that are not directly involved in terrorist activities, but whose members may engage in, train others in, or support political organizations engaged in "terrorist activities" that are seen as threatening to the American government. - -All American organizations, including these political organizations, are at risk of being monitored and surveilled by the NSA, in defiance of the Fourth Amendment. If an agency believes that it can target any Americans, regardless of their membership in an organization or connection to international terrorism, it can make such a declaration as part of its FISA applications — and the NSA, as a result, is permitted to collect any data that is relevant to "foreign intelligence" and "counterintelligence" investigations. The FISA Court has granted this authority to the NSA. - -The NSA can conduct electronic surveillance or electronic monitoring without a warrant, provided the government provides a "reasonable articulable suspicion" that the target is engaged in terrorism, or is a member of a terrorist organization. The NSA has applied this extremely broad interpretation of national security to many, if not all, Americans. - -A federal judge, in a landmark case, recently ruled that the NSA's practice of accessing and processing American's communications without a warrant and judicial review violates the Fourth Amendment. - -The ACLU filed a lawsuit for the release of 28 pages of secret law, detailing aspects of the NSA's operations. - -The court document revealed by The Guardian, and also included in our FOIA request, details a program in which the NSA intercepted the communications of foreign diplomats and attempted to infiltrate their phone companies so as to collect their private communications. The intelligence agency obtained permission to tap the diplomats' telephone and e-mail communications from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Court. - -The spying was conducted under the broad framework of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978, which gives the FISA Court an unprecedented power to authorize communications monitoring and -======================================== SAMPLE 199 ======================================== -On the heels of the most controversial moment in Game of Thrones' run, Sunday night's episode ended with a big reveal: Bran Stark is really Jon Snow, the bastard son of Ned and Ned's youngest child. The show's creators, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, immediately issued the following comment: "This has all been a long time coming — and even longer said than done — and we can't wait to share this big moment with all of you." - -A big moment — as the show has told us all season long, Bran and Jon are brothers, and the show knows this, even though the books don't explicitly tell them this. It's a big moment that has long drawn fan speculation, particularly in light of Jon's ambiguous parentage. Theories ranging from Ned and Ned's daughter, Lyanna Stark, who was taken by Rhaegar's forces to the Westerosi mainland with him, to the Starks themselves have speculated on whether this revelation will affect the course of the story. - -[Spoiler alert: We won't be spoiling this big moment.] - -Theories about that reveal range from the mundane ("What the hell is Bran really? This is great! He's finally a kid again!"), to the deeply philosophical ("This is pretty damn cool. I hope it continues in the books," says one commenter on the Hollywood Reporter's Thrones chat forum). But in the end, we won't know whether this episode ends Jon's war against the White Walkers, or the Red Wedding, with any kind of satisfying resolution. But I do know that many fans will be delighted, especially those who have been waiting for this scene for years. - -The moment in question comes when Daenerys and her allies finally arrive in Westeros, landing in Braavos. At the port, she's forced to give Rhaegar his sword, Aegon's Kiss, because he no longer exists in the Iron Throne's books. Then she's confronted by a woman who tells her the tale of her birth, and that the last of her family is still waiting for her to return. At first she's disgusted by it, but then she recognizes her long-lost mother, who tells her of how she was killed by her own brother. She says that her true children — her bastard children — are watching her and whispering in her ear. - -We don't know much about this woman apart from her description. At the end of last week's episode, she was identified by George R.R. Martin as Lyanna Stark, the eldest of all the Targaryens. It's possible that, much like her daughter, this woman is not Arya, or any of the other Stark children, but an other character in the series who will ultimately get revealed. The moment was, after all, the same moment that was used in the episode to reveal Ned's paternity. But the fact that her identity was kept secret, and that the revelation of her name and story would likely be greeted with much mirth among fans, only makes it more special. - -[Spoilers for Monday's episode ahead, if you haven't seen it already] - -Many fans of the novels are already excited about the possible reveal, saying that while the details of the revelation are currently unknown, the idea has long been bubbling below the surface. Even those without any knowledge of George R.R. Martin's source material have long suspected that Jon has Bran's DNA. And now, after seven years, after a major character died, at the moment we see him resurrected, we finally know that the reveal is true — and we're thrilled even if we don't get the big ending (and the possibility of a final Iron Throne-shaped bow). - -Before we talk about why we're all so excited about this reveal, though — and what fans should expect — let's briefly look at how the story that follows it could go down. - -When was the last time we saw Lyanna Stark? — and whether she'll be back. - -A lot of viewers got really excited about the story to follow Sunday night's episode, with much of the speculation revolving around how it might tie up the end of Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire saga. The last we saw Lyanna was just before Ned Stark and the Starks arrived at the Tower of Joy during the second novel in the book series, A Storm of Swords. If the two novels are loosely adapted as a TV series (which they might have to be, since George R.R. Martin's current contract requires the author to finish the series by an unspecified deadline), that scene in A Storm of Swords is the last we've ever seen. - -Now, let's assume this scene took place in the last six books — six books are roughly the time frame between A Dance With Dragons and Thrones, the final two volumes of the series. A Storm of Swords was published in 2001, while Thrones came out in 2011. Therefore, a story involving -======================================== SAMPLE 200 ======================================== -Losing weight: Not the easy way - - -The way many people lose weight is to eat less and exercise more. But this won't keep them weight off – it won't even slow the rate at which they go off sugar. - -A new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine shows that dieters who stuck to strict low-calorie diets in the face of a sugar-sweetened beverage restriction had no more weight-loss success than those who switched their calories to non-caloric beverages. - -"This raises some concerns about people cutting back on sugar-sweetened beverages," says Dr. Deborah Blumberg, a dietitian who co-wrote the article. "Our study is a reminder that they can't be the only choice. They do have an impact. If you're on a diet to lose weight, you should limit your consumption of sugar," she says. - -The findings build on previous research that has found that there's just no evidence showing that dieters who cut back completely on sugary drinks can lose weight. But previous studies show that cutting back just a little bit on sugars – and then keeping it that way – can have a big impact. - -The current study looked at the effects of six weeks of daily caloric restriction or switching diet types, in which participants were cut back a little bit on sugar-sweetened beverages but kept their calories from those drinks the same. The authors found that those who stuck with an 8 percent reduction in calories from sugary drinks actually lost an average of one pound less over the six weeks than those in a different group who reduced their sugary beverages by 8 percent. - -But the benefits didn't seem to persist for six weeks. - -"I wanted to see if the weight would come off or the weight loss still be there after six weeks," says Dr. Linda Bacon, a professor of nutrition sciences. "It didn't seem like the study group would make any difference at the six-week mark, the same as it didn't seem like any benefit is being maintained over six weeks." - -What's more, when the groups were switched, the participants who had switched to non-caloric beverages also reported that they were losing weight but not retaining their weight loss. And among the group that continued to restrict sugary sodas, none of the participants had regained their lost weight. - -For the researchers, it could mean some people would be better off sticking with a diet high in fruit and vegetables. "That said, a high fruit and vegetable consumption will also increase the risk of weight gain," Blumberg says. - -The current study was small and didn't fully explain why weight loss in the low-calorie group failed to last beyond a month. The study didn't control for the participants' eating habits or activity levels prior to the study, so there is the potential that other factors – like health conditions or medications – were responsible. - -More research is needed to determine how long the benefits from restricting sugary drinks remain. - -The American Heart Association recommends adults who eat at least 2,000 calories a day – just over 600 from sugary drinks – to limit intake of added sugars to no more than 5 percent of total calories. They also encourage people on diets to choose whole grains and fruits.<|endoftext|>The World of the Dao, Volume 1 - -Annotated Bibliography - -J.W. Davies - -1. Introduction: - -The Dao, or Great Way , is the foundation of all the great religions of the world. As far as ancient Chinese thought is concerned, there is not one religion which has not, at one time or another, recognized the Dao, or Great Way, as the source of religious, philosophical, and ethical knowledge, and of the true and the good. Its authority in the great Chinese tradition goes back to at least the 3rd century BC, when Wu Chengwei, the founder of the School of Shu , and Liu Hsia , the founder of the School of Zen , both stated it as their source. Thus they were both not only the first to recognize the Dao as the core of Chinese thought; they also were the first to claim the original state of things was the Dao. - -While Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism may share the same concept of "greatest and most perfect" reality, but they differ in all other important aspects. Confucianism and Taoism both stress the value of action. While Confucianism is concerned with action or the achievement of success in life; Taoism stresses the role of thought. Furthermore, Confucianism is concerned with maintaining discipline for the good of your family and your clan, while Taoism has a much more altruistic aspect. This is illustrated in the two quotes below: - -The true Tao is the Way . - -In the universe, the principle of nonaction is the greatest virtue, not the way. This is what is called the "Dao of Nonaction -======================================== SAMPLE 201 ======================================== -The National Football League (NFL) and NFL Players Association (NFLPA) have launched a new joint venture called the "Coaching Education Fund," which has been created to promote the benefits of the NFL and NFL's coaching education programs to the youth of America. The joint venture will focus on a number of issues facing the game with respect to education, education reform, and NFL and NFLPA education support programs. - -On July 1, 2013, in consultation with former and current NFL coaches, current and former NFLPA head officials and college coaching directors, NFL and NFLPA officials will convene in California to focus on a number of issues facing the game that focus on "education reform, education support, student-athlete health/safety and education support programs in football, with an emphasis on supporting and promoting the importance of teaching the fundamentals of football." - -In a press release, NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith indicated what some of his priorities will be at this joint venture: - -"Over the years, I've heard repeatedly that our sport has a lot of misconceptions about how good we need to be as a society. We need to make the game safer," NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith said. "That is why the NFLPA will be holding a joint venture for the first time to help bring an end to head-to-head tackling. "There are two things that are hurting, not helping, the game of football," Smith continued. "One is the culture that encourages head hitting in a game of football. The second is in-game coaching. Teaching the fundamentals of football need to be made more accessible, more available to young people. "Teaching the fundamentals of football means teaching young men how to block, move, hit, cover and tackle. If you do not teach them these things, how can a person become a great player in football? How can a player have the potential to become great if they do not practice these fundamentals? "The NFL and NFLPA's vision of a positive and positive impact on player health and safety is something we want to continue to push for and make our message the same across all professional sports." - -A number of issues will be discussed at the joint venture: - --The need to teach children and youth how to play the game safely, especially in tackling situations that are prevalent in youth football. - --Child abuse in the NFL, including the rise in concussions in recent years. - --The importance of teaching children how to hit with technique and correct technique, rather than simply body impact hitting. - --The role of the Head Coach as the primary educator in educating youth. - --The need for a player union leadership role with regards to youth and youth coaches. - --Teaching youth to know what is expected of them and how they are expected to perform. - --The need of educating coaches and training staff on the importance of teaching the fundamentals. - -Coaches, coaches' spouses, NFL employees on- or off-the-field, and youth will be invited to attend the two-day meeting in conjunction with the creation of both the NFLCoachingEffort.com website, the first education portal for NFL coaches and staff, and the NFL and NFLPA Educators Forum (PESF). (Visit NFLCoachingEffort.com for a link to register for a free account.) - -"We appreciate the opportunity and support provided by the NFL and the NFLPA to explore ways to improve the overall health and safety of youth football," stated David Borst, NFLPA COO. "We look forward to this initiative with the support of the NFL and NFL coaches, as well as the continued support of the game's youth, coaches, players and parents." - -The first two NFLCoachingEffort.com educational portals, which will be launched over the course of the week, will provide access to the NFL's latest concussion protocols and updates concerning head trauma in football. The other NFL-related education portal will serve to educate parents and youth about the ways in which sports participation can increase their participation in physical activity, and help them reduce the incidence of injury and chronic conditions. - -"Our players, coaches, staff members and our fans all rely on us to work with them and support them as they reach their health and athletic development objectives," said NFL Chief Medical Officer Dr. Jeffrey Miller. "Our joint initiative with the NFLPA will provide a great opportunity for us to provide information and education to all youth, coaches and players who may be looking to learn more about the risks and benefits posed by head injuries. The joint venture is not only designed to educate the American youth of American football, but it will help us understand what is really needed to make it safer for sports participation." - -To find out more about the topics at this joint venture visit the NFLCoachingEffort.com website (www.NFLCoachingEffort.com) and the NFLPA Educators Forum (P -======================================== SAMPLE 202 ======================================== -[F4M] Fucking the teacher [Mdom] [JOI] [Virgin] [Incest] [Masturbation] [Age] [Blowjob] [Facial] [Spanks] [Fucking] [Incest] [Teaching] [Kissing] [Anal] [Rape] [MILF] [Ride home] [MILF] [Misc] [A little tease at the end. -LolitaLove] I've always wanted to be a teacher.

It is nothing short of shameful for a political party that claims to be the party of equal rights to stand behind politicians like Roy Moore, who has taken a public stance against LGBTQ rights, and Alabama Senate candidate, who has repeatedly made statements about his opposition to equal rights for LGBTQ people. The time for the Republicans to step back from their homophobia, sexism and bigotry, and start respecting the LGBTQ community is now . It is time for the GOP to make a serious effort to show their support for the LGBTQ community and to oppose any action that would take us back in time. I propose a simple solution. If the Republican Party wants to have any chance of winning in Alabama, they should drop their support for Roy Moore and his disgusting anti-LGBTQ stance. - -The Alabama Senate election is coming up on December 12. Many people wonder what impact it would have when you start getting rid of a handful of state Senate seats. The answer is that it would have a significant impact. For the last 4-8 years, the Republicans have had a majority in the House of Representatives due to gerrymandering and because of the fact that the Republicans run the majority of House races across the country, they control the redistricting process. In a normal election cycle, this means the Democrats, who tend to win more elections, control their House votes and control their redistricting process. This was not the case this last two years, however, due to the fact that the Republicans and their Senate majority took advantage of the fact that no Democrat won a single Senate race in 2012 to rig the redistricting process. - -They did exactly this. The Republicans drew gerrymandered lines, so the Democrats would only have 51 seats. The Republicans would be forced to keep winning 50%+1 of the vote to stay in power. This is exactly what has happened. Due to the House redrawing, the GOP now controls the redistricting process, and this allows them to control the seats. The Senate is one of the few remaining democratic institutions left in this country. They still have an enormous amount of power over who represents them. The Senate is the chamber where they send their own Supreme Court members. Without the power of the Senate, Trump and the Republicans are forced to choose between the will of the voters, and the Supreme Court. And when the Supreme Court issues a ruling against Trump or his party, or when they put a friend's or relative's rights above women having control over their own bodies and reproductive lives, we may see just how far they will go when it comes to their hatred of LGBTQ people. - -It is time for the Republican Party to grow some balls and drop Roy Moore as their Senate candidate.<|endoftext|>The government of Israel is making every effort to ensure that the Arab-Israeli citizens of the state are happy in their state, with a new ad campaign aimed at improving lives for the Arab community throughout the country. - -Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has given a press conference after the launch of the "We want to live with you" campaign, which aims to convince Arab Israeli citizens that their well-being is important for them.

But when I visited the school, I saw nothing that would suggest the debate is anywhere close to over. - -Instead, I found a sprawling campus with a student population that is almost equally split along gender lines, and a campus increasingly polarized by a series of clashes between conservative evangelical Christians and progressive, secular faculty and administrators. Most of the students I was talking to were from conservative families. They were from high-poverty neighborhoods. They came from religious families, and many of them were from evangelical churches – the school's spiritual center. - -The only visible differences between conservative students and those from other schools or social groups were the differences in their dress and speech, their social status (the richer ones tended to have more money). - -The campus is surrounded by a sea of giant, multi-colored Confederate flags that symbolize the southern secessionists of the early 20th century. To this day, their banners are ubiquitous on public property and at every event. They were flown at the North Carolina Legislative Building during the special session that led to the state's House Bill 2, a law that, among other things, bans transgender students and employees from using restrooms corresponding to their gender identity. - -The controversy surrounding that law reached new, high-level national prominence last weekend when Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, praised it during a private meeting with lawmakers. - -In many ways, my visit was predictable from a sense of what North Carolina has become. The state's leaders have fought tooth and nail to be a leader for "protecting our values," as Gov. Pat McCrory (R) said in a speech on the floor of the legislature on March 29. The idea had been a bipartisan one, in the early '90s. Then, after Republican Gov. Jim Hunt (R) made a mistake and appointed Democratic lawmakers to his cabinet, Republican legislative leaders worked to undo the mistake, first pushing a constitutional amendment to prohibit same-sex marriage in the state and later banning "sex" from employment protections. - -The battle over the bathroom law made the stakes even higher, in ways that go beyond the symbolism of the Confederate flag and the debate over academic freedom. "When we talk about protecting your rights, we need to get these rights right," McCrory told the Charlotte Observer. "We don't get to do it half-way." - -North Carolina is a state that has already been designated one of the nation's most conservative, thanks to McCrory's policies. The state's unemployment rate ticked up to 8 percent last year as North Carolina passed some of the harshest anti-LGBT legislation in the country. The state's economy suffered from a decline in tourism, the closure of hundreds of textile mills, a sharp erosion in the tax base, and the loss of nearly $3 billion in annual revenue. - -As a result, even with the massive drop in the state's employment outlook, Republicans in Charlotte were quick to blame the government for not doing enough to promote "responsible and stable lifestyles." One bill would have barred transgender students from using the bathroom that matched their gender identity, while other bills in the legislature would have limited bathroom access for transgender people and, in one case, prevented cities from passing "common sense" ordinances like allowing transgender people to use the bathroom that matched their gender identity. - -The legislature's efforts were widely condemned by activists, business interests and government officials. In his State of the State address, Gov. McCrory pointed to the economic benefits his administration has been able to draw from the state: - -A recently released state report showed that the North Carolina's economy has outperformed every other state in the South by an extraordinary margin. In addition to North Carolina's highly skilled workforce and world-class universities, this report shows we have the most productive workforce in the country. North Carolina is an example of how a business-friendly regime has attracted businesses like Google to locate here while still protecting employee rights and promoting environmental protection. - -The state's economy does have its problems, and they have been caused at least in part by a lack of education funding and liberal policies. But it's impossible to ignore the fact that North Carolina's policies are also at the root of most of its problems. McCrory claims that some of his policies have helped to keep the unemployment rate low. But North Carolina has one of the biggest income gaps in the country. According to a Brookings Institution report from 2015, more than a quarter of high school graduates (27 percent) are functionally illiterate, compared with 8 percent of middle school graduates and 3 percent of college graduates. In a state with so many unemployed young adults, the effects of that are serious. - -When I asked a number of students why they felt threatened by transgender people, most noted the effects the policy had had on friends of theirs, for example. Another student told me, "I was friends with a transgender girl who is now in college.

The news was first reported by The New York Times on Thursday. - -On Friday, a number of news outlets, including CNN and the Wall Street Journal, reported on the new details. The Times published part of its story — titled "The N.S.A. Collects and Seizes Millions of Phone Records a Day" — under the headline, "[A]s far as anyone knows it's never been done before." - -"No American has ever seen the N.S.A. collecting records on hundreds, if not thousands, of people at a time," the report read. "According to one former intelligence agency official, it was not until a few weeks ago, after an aggressive lobbying campaign by the Obama administration, that N.S.A. officials were even aware that the program existed." - -The administration was reportedly unaware that the program existed until April 11, when an administration official was asked if the agency had indeed "incidentally collected" any records on "lawful U.S. persons" and specifically about "President Obama." - -The Times adds that the president is not the only one who has been subject to the NSA's surveillance. "If Obama and his aides had known their emails were being collected, they would have attempted to use another account," the report said, referring to former Secretary of State Colin Powell, former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and General David Petraeus, according to former agency officials. - -The Washington Post cited other former intelligence officials who confirmed that the monitoring of "a small portion" of the U.S. population was an NSA standard practice. - -"I can't think of anyone who was targeted for any particular reason other than it was something that we had been asked to do," Andrew M. Inglis, a former deputy director of the NSA and one of the agency's most prominent members, told the Post. - -The report by the Times follows the Guardian's disclosure Friday that the agency has had "a secret court order for years compelling phone companies to turn over huge amounts of personal data from their customers on an ongoing daily basis." - -"The scale of the N.S.A.'s database is so vast that there is no reasonable way for the agency to know exactly which phone numbers it is seeking," the Guardian reported. - -The Times article noted that "this program has also been questioned by Republican members of Congress." - -According to the Times, Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia told The Washington Post last year that he "was troubled by the disclosure of the N.S.A.'s telephone number database, which he acknowledged 'inadvertently' collects the records of almost everyone in America." - -In response, Rep.

In California alone, 603 people are on death row and another 49 people are on death row in federal prisons. - -The total annual number of executions in U.S. history has been roughly 2,850. This year so far, there have been 514 executions. Of those that have occurred in the U.S., 7 people have died. - -"It is clear that California has a large death row population with no end in sight," said Zachary Bail, director of the Pro-Death Penalty National Prisons Project. "The state must address this situation immediately by putting in place safeguards to prevent even more people from being put to death, and must also eliminate the racial overrepresentation of people of color in these prisons, which is particularly egregious." - -This year, the death penalty has been at the forefront of the national debate over racial justice in the United States. Since the 2014 death of Michael Brown, a black 18-year-old was killed by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri.

They then moved on to media organizations, including ABC, NBC, CBS, The Onion, The New York Times, Fox and NPR, to obtain more emails, including personnel records (including for employees' spouses and children) and data pertaining to Sony, in an all-points bulletin targeting financial firms. - -This new group, TrueSec, is comprised of an assortment of hackers who hack various targets in exchange for financial compensation, according to reports in Der Spiegel, The Sydney Morning Herald and other publications. According to a report by Motherboard, "the group's modus operandi is much more advanced" than that of Phantom, a hacker who made the acquaintance of the group in 2014. - -Motherboard reports that the group has been responsible for several high profile hacks, including that of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the biggest hack ever, in 2015, and a huge breach of Ashley Madison, one of the world's largest dating sites. (The website was reportedly compromised earlier this year, leading to the leak of more than 37 million user records.) - -Motherboard says "TrueSec," who allegedly hacked U.S. financial firms in October 2015 and in 2016, has so far been behind a few high profile hacks, including that of Sony, in which hackers claim to have obtained nearly 80 gigabytes of sensitive data, including internal email accounts and film and television plots.

It is also available on Blu-Ray disc, with high definition, and digitally in high definition from the video game company Retro Studios under the title "The King of the Monsters - Toho Godzilla". - -The character was first introduced in a TV series called Godzilla: Kaijū no Gyakushū in 1964, and the character was first seen in a live-action film version in 1959 with Hiroshi Teshigahara in the title role. The film is now considered to be one of the most influential Japanese live-action films of all time. The film was later followed by the TV series in 1964, which was later followed by a live-action film version of it, as well as several TV specials and two Godzilla feature films including the first and last one, and the other two films as well, each of which were based on the film. - -For some reason, Toho also decided to rename his movie version of Godzilla as "Godzilla Kaijū no Gyakushū", or simply "Godzilla" in English. The film was also renamed and re-released in North America again as Godzilla: Final Wars (ゴジラギドラー) (aka Godzilla: Kaijū no Gyakushū Kaijin), however a DVD version of this was released as King of the Monsters (ゴジラギドラ) by Toho. - -After the release of The Return of Godzilla in 1954, King of the Monsters was released in Japanese cinemas during the "Godzilla Week" from November 21 to November 27 of the same year (the same week as The Return of Godzilla) and then in North American cinemas from March 5, 1958 to June 5, 1960. - -In 1968, a Toho live action film of King of the Monsters entitled King of the Monsters II (ゴジラギデス2) (aka Godzilla 2) was released. - -A "Live-action film of Godzilla (Godzilla Kaijū no Gyakushū)" film was released in 1976 by Toho. - -Toho released a two-volume English comic adaptation called Godzilla: King of the Monsters in the early 1980s along with the novelization of Godzilla: The Wrath of Taikai. The English comics were later released in paperback form and in hardcover form in 2015, with a comic adaptation titled Godzilla: The King (Godzilla: Dai Honbu) released alongside them. - -Godzilla is sometimes referred to as King of the Monsters and King of Monsters; it is unknown why the terms were dropped from the title. - -History Edit - -Godzilla was inspired by the Kami, the Japanese deities associated with creation and creation itself. His appearance resembled that of a giant squid, and he was called "Kaijū (Kaijuu: literally, Great Dragon or Dragon Prince)", hence his Japanese name; it is unknown whether the name is based on his actual Chinese title (Kongō), or simply the name given to him by the Japanese. The name "Kaiju" is a common Japanese name, and it may be that this is a reference to these kaijūs. - -Godzilla's first appearance in 1954 comes from an early story written in 1954 by Masahiro Konishi entitled "Giant Monster Stories", which originally was to be the first installment in an anthology. However, the story was abandoned, and the story "Kaijuu no Gyakushū (Godzilla), The Monster from Beyond the Earth" (ゴジラギドラの大作戦) was written during this period. - -After the film itself, Godzilla continued to appear in a number of books and other forms, and in 1985, he was officially introduced to the world through animated films, comics, the live-action "Godzilla versus Destoroyah" series, and even other works including a popular magazine series. From 2004 to 2007, Japan was represented in the live-action film, and in 2010, a live action film came. - -In 2001, it was announced that, with the aid of Toho, Toho would again make a "King of the Monsters" live-action film, this time following the story of the original 1954 film, King of the Monsters, which had received many positive critical reviews. - -Toho has since released a number of comic adaptations of Godzilla's history and mythology, mainly focusing on his origin stories. - -In 2012, a Japanese live action television series (with English language dubbing) of King of the Monsters was released. In 2013 -======================================== SAMPLE 211 ======================================== -On the morning of June 6, 2015, two men wearing vests and ski masks climbed up a small hill and opened fire on a crowd of people attending a gay pride parade in the French city of Nice. - -Fourteen were killed, including a French police officer, and around 70 others were injured before the three gunmen were killed by police. Their motives remain unclear, but the attacker in particular was known to law enforcement; he was on a list of extremists banned from entry into France and had been under close surveillance for around six months. - -What is clear, however, is that the attacker's motives were driven by his anti-gay beliefs, which can be gleaned from the words he spoke when they arrested him. The following is a translation of his statement, given to authorities and later leaked to the media: - -"I'm sorry for what I did, but Allah asked me to do it […] I did it for the Muslims. You are killing your children, taking their women as slaves, eating their meat and drinking their blood. Your prophet Mohammad did the same, and you're doing it now, so everyone will know." - -The translation, of sorts, is by Aboo Takoob, a former jihadist turned secular Islamist, who has worked closely with the Islamic State. He tells us about the translation and the incident that inspired it. - -VICE: Can you describe the translation of the attacker's statement? How long did it take you to get in-depth with him? - -Aboo Takoob: I first asked if I could give a translation of the speech. I had worked with the terrorists, and they were quite transparent, and they told me that the person they wanted to get a message out to would be a French police officer. I decided to translate the same speech that they gave me, the one they had heard the day before, the one in which they confessed. They said that in this speech they wanted a message sent to the Islamic State and to French society, as well as a message to the French state as a whole and to the Muslims everywhere, so they chose a policeman or police officer as someone to say this speech. - -The language used was English and not French. In the speech they used slang and terms, such as "pigs," that I had never heard before. Those are the words they used in the speech. Afterward, we found his handwriting and some of the handwriting of his wife, the one who wrote the confession letter. The Arabic writing was all right, the French was not. - -I couldn't really make out this speech without the help of a translator and the person who had written it to. It's really rare to speak to a person as a prisoner, because of the security and the strict rules. I needed permission from the judge and the prison authorities, and I had to write this down. I read the transcript three or four times, then I translated the speech before anyone could read it, but when they finished reading that, I went back to it. I didn't use the exact wording he used, only parts of what he said, but his intentions were the same. - -It's rare to speak to a person as a prisoner, because of the security and the strict rules. I needed permission from the judge and the prison authorities, and I had to write this down. - -How did the incident spark controversy in the city of Nice? - -During the funeral I spoke to someone who had worked as a journalist. She was a close friend of the victim, a woman from Nice who went into business with him as an escort. She said that she couldn't stop thinking about what had happened. She was a Muslim, and it was a very difficult moment for her because she had known this man for years and never thought about it until later. - -In my view those acts of terrorism were totally and totally inspired by what they believed. I wouldn't say that what they did was the same as Daesh, because they're both extremist groups, but Daesh was formed by a particular ideology that they started out with. Their goal is to have their kind of system across the world. So it's a very simple ideology: to conquer what they want to conquer. It's a very simple way of thinking. - -So this man's motivation may have been that, as he explained to a friend a few hours before the attack, he wanted to create a caliphate, a state, as he put it. - -The French state has taken very strong measures against people like him. But those measures were never meant to be permanent. They aim to help those people who are not radicalized when, in their own way, they become radicalized and then move toward Daesh. Many of those who are stopped were actually just being vulnerable. - -"He wanted to create a caliphate, an Islamic State, on the whole; he had a very clear ideology to do something like that. And you could see it right from the beginning; from the first -======================================== SAMPLE 212 ======================================== -A lot of the discussion of U.S. involvement in Ukraine in the news lately has been concerned with the possibility of a military strike against Russia -- the sort of conflict that has escalated every two years since the end of the Cold War. However, it's also worth talking about the broader political ramifications of this action, with Ukraine's newly elected president, Petro Poroshenko, suggesting that the U.S. and NATO could be "wiped off the map." - -The question is, why? The answer is complicated and involves everything from geopolitical interests to economic interests and international relations. - -U.S.-Ukraine relations (U.S./U.S.R.) - -When you think of the United States, you're likely to think of two things: the U.S. in the Cold War, and the world as we know it today. It's a lot easier to remember what has changed in that era but difficult to picture what it would take to get back to that time. - -The Cold War brought with it a massive shift in the global balance of power, with a handful of powers gaining a hold on both major powers of the day: the Soviet Union, the United States and the United Kingdom all having some influence on the other. - -U.S.-Russia relations haven't been quite so turbulent in their modern era -- although they clearly went through a rocky period under President Barack Obama's administration. (For many liberals, though, that's because of Ukraine.) But the U.S. relationship with Russia has, at various points, been either very tense or at least complicated (depending on the issue involved). - -The U.S.-Soviet relationship was quite strained during the Cold War, and the two nations' borders had shifted several times. It's not exactly the era of the "peace dividend" (as it was portrayed at the time) where the United States enjoyed strong trade ties with nearly every nation and didn't require Russian energy imports. - -One area where relations with Russia, though, did improve during the Cold War was in U.S.-Soviet space. The U.S. and the Soviet Union collaborated extensively, with both sides conducting joint space efforts, satellite launches and even joint research and development efforts during space race era. There was also an arms race between the two countries during the Cold War, which led to some Cold War concepts that continued to inform U.S. policy in the region. In particular, the U.S. Air Force-Soviet Union Strategic Defense Agreement of the 1950s is still commonly cited as one of the defining moments in the history of space warfare. - -But the Cold War did end, and while the United States did end support for the Warsaw Pact when it ceased being a functioning political entity in 1991, it did not come to an end as clearly as one would expect it to. The two nation's relationship continued to shift, with the U.S. focusing more on cooperation with the countries of Eurasia, while the Soviet Union moved away from its ties to the former Soviet satellites and toward the former satellite states of the Soviet Union. Over time, Russia and the Soviet Union did begin to work more closely on international and other issues, but it's still complicated. - -For the time being, the relationship between the U.S. and Russia has been based on economic interests. Russia has long been a crucial supplier of natural gas to most of Europe. It has a very large U.S.-Russian energy deal. Russia has also been a significant supplier of weapons, especially nuclear weapons. - -The situation around Ukraine is complicated in that the region, particularly in terms of access to energy and weapons systems, were historically not so closely related: there is no natural gas pipeline going from Ukraine to the Balkans or the Black Sea, no military base near Crimea, and there's no NATO base next to Russia's borders in Kaliningrad. - -Ukraine is the most obvious area where both sides benefit from this relationship -- as Ukraine is one of the leading markets for Russian natural gas, Russia could easily shift to supplying Ukraine with more of its gas -- and is also one of the best (if not only) energy markets for Russia's weapons industry. - -On one hand, this is good for both Russia and the U.S. in a geopolitical way -- it is good for Europe to have access to energy and good for the United States to have access to weapons systems. Moreover, both countries have benefitted from this relationship in terms of trade. Russia has had the opportunity to diversify its natural gas exports (in which Western Europe has been a large part), while the United States has benefited by supplying military systems to both Russia and China. - -But the situation also raises a very real question for why there has been such close interest between Russia and the United States, why there are many issues that can only be solved through this relationship. - -Why has this relationship so clearly been so valuable to both sides? - -First, there's the obvious economic relationship, with -======================================== SAMPLE 213 ======================================== -The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) new website for weather forecasting has been up and running for only a few days. - -As an "early adopter", NOAA has put its website through its paces and we've had a chance to explore some of NOAA's many new features. - -The major areas of interest to meteorologists are the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) and the Wide-Area Integrated Observing System (WAIS).

They were more likely to do so as the night proceeded; he carried them by a 5-point margin in Madison County at the beginning of the night, for example. - -In most counties, Trump got more votes than Cruz; his biggest vote share was in Jefferson, where he won by a whopping 30 points — but there were far greater disparities between Cruz's and Trump's wins. - -Overall, the countywide turnout, especially for candidates who received more than 15 percent of the primary vote, was more than what we would expect from just a typical election year. - -Looking at exit poll results by county, some other patterns emerge:<|endoftext|>Tottenham have reportedly offered £26million to Leicester to sign Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez. - -Leicester's squad was shaken by the news that their star duo could be leaving the King Power Stadium this summer and the French newspaper Le10 Sport claim Spurs have stepped in to bring in two of Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy, according to a statement on their official website. - -Mahrez was identified two years before the start of the 2014/15 season by VfB Stuttgart executive team member Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, as the Algerian international's career was beginning to stagnate after a slow start to his career in the Premier League. - -Rummenigge has now reportedly approached Leicester's hierarchy with an offer for both strikers and the Premier League side have turned the offer down. - -The 27-year-old Vardy, a former France Under-21 international and England international, signed for Leicester on a 12-month contract in June of the previous season and has already played a major role in helping Leicester remain in the top flight. - -This season he has bagged 15 goals, having also contributed four assists, despite being left out of Leicester's league-winning team for their opening game of the Premier League season against Tottenham. - -Shape Created with Sketch.

This means at least one post each week is going to be going on from one of our contributors. Check back later in the week for more guest blogging on web development with Ruby, including a look at the new RSpec web app. - -How do you find clients? As someone who spends a great deal of time online, it comes naturally to me to search from the internet and use the search terms "Ruby on Rails" and "web dev." - -This isn't a new idea by any stretch, but it's still quite fun to search for "client" – "developer" – "familiar" – "developer website" – and try to find the right name for your project. - -I like to start my conversations with a question. "So, who would be an ideal client?" - -It sounds straightforward, but I like to follow it up with a question of my own. "Okay… so how often are you going to get to work on a full development project of this scale?" - -Once I find out the time that week, I can start creating a schedule or work in a specific way. - -One of my most important clients is one of the best Rubyists I know. For most of the year, he is always working on big, complex projects. He also has a very particular client that helps pay for a great number of what he does. - -It seems that my client has a large library full of different applications, frameworks, and libraries that he's building up and he would like to test how a full web app would work on both a slow laptop and a fast desktop. - -What he does for fun - -First, I need to gather up things and install a few utilities. I used to think of this as part of the Ruby world, but it seems to be much more accessible to the average person. - -First, with Homebrew, install curl, wget, and mv: - -$ brew update && brew install curl wget - -You want to install some of these for testing. - -Next, it is important to know how to use mv. I'm not going to get into too much detail – if you're familiar with Unix, the file names are all obvious. - -$ mv README README.md $ open README.md (or README.md for some languages) - -With the basics under our belt, let's check the client library. To make sure our test project doesn't break we're going to run this to get an error: - -$ bundle exec rspec - -This will output a lot of information, but if you look at the output in a text editor or the console you can copy each line and jump to it without having to look at the rest. If the line is blank, it means you haven't included it in the file – in that case you're good to go. - -$ bundle exec rspec - -If you run this with the –ignore_blank flag it won't output any information – you can get the full error list by running this: - -$ bundle exec rspec --ignore_blank - -This will display everything in the file in an HTML-friendly format: - -$ open README.md - -Once you got all that information, here are some resources to check out. There are quite a few different gems, frameworks, and libraries that can help you work as a web dev on projects of all kinds, including projects that might be complex, difficult, difficult to create, or anything else you might need to find out more or get help getting started on something. - -I was also very happy to hear -======================================== SAMPLE 215 ======================================== -There are many types of "natural" parenting. Each with their own benefits, pitfalls and challenges and each with its own set of circumstances. It is all about the child. - -It is a fact that the best parent is the one whose actions help him or her become a better person and person capable of self-help. - -It is true that being a parent is an extremely tough task and it requires a lot of effort and dedication. - -It is true that there is no substitute for good parenting and, therefore, no substitute for good children. No, a single parent cannot replace a married or partnered couple and a multi-generational family with a toddler, toddler to toddler, toddler to teen, teen to parent, parent to child, and finally child to parent. - -The above examples are just a sample of the type of situations that may arise in your life. - -But there is an easier type of situation that exists: - -Children and youth are there for you, always because you are still in the process of becoming a mature and independent person. - -If you've ever lost a child due to an early intervention then you know what I am talking about. - -You will have to deal with these feelings. They come from the depths of your soul and your heart will be affected. - -When children or youth come into your life, they will make you grow every single one of your abilities and the love you have for the person they are. - - -The more experience, the more the love, the easier will be. - -You will understand that the process of learning is much different from the child's, young or not (you can never understand that, it has been far beyond your knowledge) or the adult's and this will be the reason the experiences will be easier and less painful and difficult. - -And, you will understand that the love will be there. - -As a mother, it can be easy to forget that you are someone living on another planet where the sun isn't constant and that there are people with dreams and dreams of their own. The things that you cannot see with your eyes are always there. - - -That is why I am telling you today, as a mother, to always remember that you are important to those who come into your life. - -There is no way to help the children who will come into your life if they know nothing about you. When they come into your life, they will need your guidance, your love, your support, your guidance, love, support and guidance. - -It is important to always remember this, as it may turn into their reality. - -We need to remember this, as it is the main reason why I decided to speak to you today. - -Because I know how much you want to understand what life is like for those who have a child in their life. But who can help when you don't know that you know? - -If you don't know what it's like to see your child at 12 or 14 or 15 or 16, then you can't help but feel guilty when your child is still a toddler, because he/she is not living in your world anymore. - -This is the most uncomfortable and confusing thing ever, but it is the truth. - -Sometimes it is easy to forget this truth because life is more exciting than the feelings you get after a child is born and is growing. - -However, if you want to really understand your own humanity then you will understand that all human emotions are based on the situation we are in at that time in each instance. - -It is up to you to learn how to handle each situation and to accept that each of us live in a world where there are ups, there are downs and sometimes there are problems. That is the truth. - -There is no substitute for having a child in your life. - -It doesn't matter if it is 10, 15 or 16. - -The one thing you must always remember is that each time you get into contact with your child, that you are now living through the whole life of that one person. - -Yes, this may be difficult but it will be worth every bit of it if you take the time to learn from your mistakes and know that your actions are for future generations more than that of your own. - -In fact it will make you a more capable parent, one that is happier and more accepting. You will learn from your mistakes and become a better person each step of the way.<|endoftext|>I found this while doing a google images search.

The World War I Centennial Commemoration Committee announced Friday it has reached a tentative "agreement" with the National Park Service regarding a potential date for the final event: a July 4th, 2011 event. - -"As you all know, we intend to have a July 4th, 2011 ceremony to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme," the committee website says. "The National Park Service has accepted the committee's proposal and it has been submitted to the NPS. We believe it is the best compromise we can come to with them." The committee is expected to meet again Friday. - -The proposal's official statement read: "Both the WW1 Centenary Commemoration Committee, and the National Park Service have reached a provisional agreement upon a final date for the proposed July 4th centenary commemorative event. Both sides are confident that an acceptable conclusion to this agreement will be forthcoming, and they will be announcing a new date once the committee has gathered sufficient support from the NPS. The Centenary Committee believes the time and location of the July 4th event are of great importance to its overall objectives, and that its successful completion represents a significant milestone in the organization's journey to 100 years of commemorating the Great War." - -The committee's original draft on the July 4 plan has since been revised to include other important dates, including the end of World War II and the 100th anniversary of D-Day the following year. - -"Our decision was a very deliberate one," the committee said. "With the agreement in place, we have taken an action we hoped will have a positive impact on our plans for the centenary year 2015. We hope that this agreement can help us in our efforts to ensure that our centenarians will be able to celebrate this centenary year on the ground, instead of in a museum or museum hall." - -During the past decade, the July 4th event has been postponed or moved due to events such as Hurricane Katrina, as well as to the threat of terrorist attacks. - -The 100-year anniversary of the Battle of the Somme was declared on October 4, 2014, but has never been officially commemorated. It was originally scheduled for July 6, 2015.<|endoftext|>A senior Iranian intelligence officer was assassinated today near Tehran's military academy, a senior Iranian general said, in another blow to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's efforts to show his support for traditional Iran. - -Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, a deputy head of the Army Staff, said the assassination appeared to be "an act of revenge" for Iran's support for Syria's opposition and its efforts to undermine Syrian President Bashar Assad. He said the motive for the killing was still unclear. - -The killing may reflect Iran's growing frustration with Mr. Ahmadinejad, who has struggled to gain traction in the last three months of his re-election campaign. Last week, more than 60 young Iranians protesting against Mr. Ahmadinejad were arrested, with Iranian news media reporting that they were detained over their political activities. - -"There is strong feeling on the ground that the government cannot remain popular with its people" because of its mismanagement of Mr. Ahmadinejad's policies, said Reza Marashi, who covers Iran for the National Iranian American Council in Washington. - -Mr. Ahmadinejad last week accused an American diplomat of kidnapping and killing Mehdi Kazemeini, a well-known human rights activist and prominent politician who opposed the country's nuclear program. Mr. Kazemeini's son, Mehdi, was killed last week in a drive-by shooting. - -While many Iranians remain upset over Mr. Kazemeini's killing, most believe the administration is trying to divert attention from the nuclear problems, said Mohsen Sazegara, who was a high-ranking Iranian official in the intelligence agency directorate when Mr. Kazemeini was killed. - -"If you ask the same people, they will tell you that you can't go against the government on an issue like this," Mr. Sazegara said. "So [the killing is] a cover-up." - -Mr. Hajizadeh said Iran's Revolutionary Guards Corps and its elite Qods troops were behind the attack. He said the attacker was in his mid-50s and was dressed like a gardener. The attacker was fatally wounded in the attack, he said. - -A senior Iranian commander, Brig. Gen. Ahmad Reza Pourdastan, said the suspect was wounded by a rocket, but that he remained in critical condition as of Sunday. - -Mr. Hajizadeh said the killing was carried out at around 8:50 a.m. local time, an hour before Mr. Kazemeini's shooting.

In this post, we have taken a look at three of the most popular and notable free software licenses: licenses for the GNU operating system, Apache's Apache License (also known as Apache 2.0), and GPLv2. - -This is our fourth in this series. Our views about the GNU operating system, the Apache 2.0 license, and the GPLv2 have been shared last time, with GPLv2 at the top of the list due to its popularity, importance, and the large number of licenses that are derived from it. - -We believe these licenses are important for open source software projects at the moment. Our previous article in this series, which looks at the state of the Free and Open Source Software Definition (FOSSD), and also explains how FOSSD could be improved, can be found here. - -Please note we're not trying to answer all the questions you may have about the Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) license landscape. That's a lot of questions for everyone to take in and digest over time. What we want to demonstrate in this blog rather is that there are a range of people with vastly different perspectives and interests that are trying to find a workable way forward for open source software. - -Why does FOSS matter? - -For open source software projects, there are multiple reasons why a license is important: a license makes it possible for users of your source code to exercise the freedoms in the FOSSD, which means they're able to redistribute their modifications (usually the code itself) to others. A license ensures that the user has the ability to contribute to project maintainers and other contributors, even outside the confines of a single project. A license allows contributors to contribute to projects that may not otherwise have enough people willing to volunteer their time and knowledge. - -A license also grants the developer the ability to share their work with others, including potentially allowing them to allow others to fork and modify the code. This allows other people to build upon and contribute to the project. Finally, a license may be mandatory under certain circumstances, so that users must agree to adhere to certain terms in order to use or improve the software. - -Why is GPLv2 so controversial? - -A lot of people in the free software community believe that the GPLv2 is not appropriate for free software projects, namely in the open source world. In a nutshell, critics point to two issues: - -A requirement that licensees agree not to distribute their modifications outside the constraints of the license. This seems to contradict the idea of the license being a guarantee of freedom for all, as this seems like an unfair burden that could potentially put people who were otherwise willing to contribute at an unfair disadvantage. The requirement that copyright holders sign agreements that make it impossible for others to contribute to an open SOURCE project. These claims have various facets, and are hard to determine on a case by case basis, because in many cases the "terms of use" agreements may be ambiguous about what they actually mean. - -Is there support for GPLv2 in the open source community? - -It's definitely not a unanimous view amongst the community as to whether or not GPLv2 is appropriate. Many argue that a license with these kinds of rules is inappropriate for open source projects. As discussed previously we feel that a license like GPL is a good fit for open source when the license is properly drafted and used in a way that addresses issues like license compliance and security threats. However, some people have asked whether or not GPLv2 is a good fit for open source projects at all, on the basis that a majority of GPLv2 is optional and is not essential. - -One argument against GPLv2 is that it makes it harder to contribute to a project and that other people are likely to see a better opportunity to contribute to a project that can use the extra help. Therefore, this argument goes, it's only natural that a "hobbyist" or "hacker" would be more inclined to use an open source project that can benefit them. - -On the other hand, some people argue that licensing agreements can be easily rewritten to enable new participants to participate without harming the original contributors to a project. For example, we might consider that in any given project each contributor should be able to decide for themselves whether they want to contribute to open source software or not without having to sign a contract. - -However, in a license like GPLv2, there is no way to rewrite the agreement, thus preventing this option: one must necessarily be a member of the project's leadership to use and contribute to the project, and any modifications are subject to the constraints of the license. - -In this blog article, we want to show that both these arguments can be made. We argue -======================================== SAMPLE 218 ======================================== -The World Bank is making a dramatic statement with a new report that reveals how low oil prices will affect countries all around the world. The report suggests that low prices are set to affect the global economy, and many of the countries with the lowest incomes are already dealing with severe economic problems. Oil prices remain low due to the supply and demand dynamic and the falling cost of fuel. For example, the price of gasoline in the U.S. fell nearly 30% in less than a week. Prices of oil are extremely volatile, and the IMF reported that as much as one-third of the oil price is subject to speculation driven by short-term supply and demand pressures. - -The current level of production is not sustainable to sustain the market of low-cost energy sources that has developed over the last six decades, and there is a risk of an oil price shock causing oil demand to rise, in turn, causing oil prices to rise and making the global economy less resilient to shocks. - -The cost of energy is determined by production costs, especially oil prices. This has the effect of creating a negative feedback loop between production and pricing, as additional demand for energy is limited due to low oil prices, but low prices reduce the supply of energy and therefore increase the cost of producing energy. - -The IMF explained in a recent report called "Oil and Inequality, Global Inequality and the Financial Crisis" that the World Bank and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) estimated that between 2000 and 2010, the cost of oil in the U.S. fell from US$55 per barrel in 2000 to under US$40 last year. The World Bank estimates that the cost of oil fell by about 30% between 2000 and 2010, from roughly US$60 per barrel to below US$40 per barrel. The IMF estimated that the drop in the oil price from US$105 per barrel in 2005 to just below US$80 per barrel in 2010, was the largest in 30 years. - -The Global Financial Crisis - -This drastic drop in oil prices is directly connected to the financial crisis in 2008. In 2008, when oil prices were in the $100 per barrel range, the banking industry was able to use oil to stabilize banking and financial systems. They used debt instruments to buy assets in banks and on the financial sector, such as commercial banks, sovereign wealth funds, private equity companies, hedge funds, and more. This allowed the banks to maintain their liquidity and continue to operate. When oil prices reached about US$100 per barrel, bank profits skyrocketed, and financial crises ensued. When oil prices dropped to US$40 per barrel in mid-2009, financial crises began in many countries. - -Oil is a volatile and highly cyclical commodity because oil prices are based on supply and demand dynamics. Oil is a supply-driven commodity, meaning there is less energy in the fuel once it has left the ground than there is when it is still just sitting on the ground. As demand for oil decreases, so does the amount of oil that can be sold. The result of this decrease is low prices: a downward spiral. - -In the midst of the 2008 financial crisis, the international community agreed that the oil price would have to be stabilized at a certain price. Many oil producing countries, including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq, Nigeria, Canada, Venezuela, Ecuador, and other countries agreed to increase production in an effort to reach a price of US$100 per barrel. If oil prices were to remain at an acceptable level above $100 per barrel, it was agreed that the nations which produce the most oil would be forced to supply oil at US$100 per barrel, while nations who produce less would be forced to supply at US$60 per barrel or lower. The countries that agreed to cut production and to cut supply would be the countries with the lowest incomes, with the richest countries buying the oil at these low prices. - -This plan was designed to stabilize prices and prevent a domino effect. However, as prices fell below $60 per barrel, there was a huge shortfall of supply for the oil markets. The only way for prices to stabilize at a sustainable level was to have demand increase. This could either occur through government policies such as tax breaks for oil producers, or through increased demand for oil from new countries like Russia. - -The Global Financial Crisis and the Oil Shock - -In response to low oil prices, countries around the world rushed to cut back on production to meet the demand of the United States. As a result of the global financial crisis and the falling cost of oil, there was a shortage of oil in the global economy — leading to major problems for countries in Latin America, Europe, North Africa and East Asia. In addition, most of these countries' governments had borrowed a great deal of the money to finance their infrastructure to move quickly through infrastructure modernization programs that were designed to create jobs. When oil prices fell below US$80 per barrel, these programs were threatened and delayed as the money lenders were unwilling to lend to countries that had -======================================== SAMPLE 219 ======================================== -"There's nothing to fear," one of the group's founders, John Beauregard II, told The Daily Caller News Foundation. - -He is part of the American Security Council's Military Task Force at Camp Arifjan in Niger, where he is acting as a liaison with U.S. Special Operations forces, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. - -Beauregard, 32, was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana to Christian missionaries. - -He is the CEO of the military charity, the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF). - -Since his youth, Beauregard was interested in the military, according to an interview that he gave to Christianity Today in 2015. - -"I think the military should be a service to all who serve it, and that I saw the Christian principles of the military and felt that all soldiers should be Christians," he said in the article. - -In the same interview, Beauregard said that his main goal is to help the troops protect themselves after the recent election of Donald Trump. - -When asked if he knew whether Trump had made "threats" to the Pentagon and the military, Beauregard said of Trump, "He was so bad, though.

That's always been part of our process," Gardner said. - -On a press call Thursday, Gardner said there was no change in the state voter rolls. - -"This is a process that has been ongoing for quite a while now and the Department of Justice has provided a lot of details on their side on when people will be affected.

But in fact, Seymour's book is an unusually compact and meticulously researched study of Bhutan's monarchy, complete with numerous anecdotes from the emperor, royal princesses and members of the royal family, as well as the king's personal entourage. - -For example, one chapter recounts how a royal delegation of 14, including two princesses, toured the United States in July. The delegation's main aim, Seymour writes, was to "educate themselves about their people's culture" and their "American society, politics and politics of the past." They visited Washington, D.C., Disneyland, the White House, and Washington, D.C.-area colleges and universities, visiting, among others, Harvard University. The delegation included a 16-year-old girl and an 18-year-old girl, and a young prince who accompanied the princesses (he was so impressed with his role in the royal family that he would become a soldier). - -While Seymour describes the young prince's attendance in the "white-robe-clad" delegation as "a striking, rare occurrence," this is not the story of the royal delegation of 14.

At last, a new study by researchers at the University of Queensland has broken down what drives people to use our services, so we as bosses can make an informed decision about how to reward them. - -"Our findings indicate that people feel that their performance reflects their skills rather than how much time they were willing to pay for it, and that, despite the 'free for all', there are economic limits to how much of a person's effort they are willing to pay for," says study leader Prof Mike Sandfield-Smith. - -"Our findings suggest that this willingness to pay is related to the extent to which a person enjoys the time they are spending with us." - -It's a surprising result. Most businesses understand that they can't charge people for everything they provide. But the Queensland team's findings may have implications for the way we run our businesses. - -For example, perhaps there's a market for businesses that offer "personalised" services such as "personalised advice" and "personalised service". Those services would obviously have a premium attached to them. - -Perhaps that's because a person's spending time with a business is so valuable for many reasons. - -In this case, the person is willing to pay for a higher level of service – perhaps they'll even pay more than someone willing to visit them – but they enjoy it. - -A final note. This is just one view. Different people value different things and will value their time differently. - -The study also looked at the relationship between time spent and pay, and found it's "very complex" and "complex relationships" with different groups make an impact. It will be interesting to see if these are also the results in other regions of the world. -======================================== SAMPLE 222 ======================================== -Tough Love is an American TV series that focuses its attention on six different families who have been living together on an island in the Mississippi River. These families include four black families, two white families with members who have been living with their children for four years, and a mixed black-white family. - -For the past week, all the families have been taking turns living on the island with a family member — a stranger or family member who is either gay or straight. - -The show was filmed in August 2015, and was released on CBS on March 31, 2016, by network's studio, CBS Television Studios. - -Contents show] - -Cast - -Main Cast - -Supporting Cast - -Crew - -Music and Sound - -Cast (In alphabetical order): - -The theme song to the series was recorded by Ben Folds. - -Production - -The production of the series began in 2015, and was based in Houston, Texas. The show ran on CBS for eight episodes, with the final two being shot in Atlanta, Georgia (between February and March of 2016). The show was filmed by Blackstone Pictures, in Atlanta. The cast and crew for the series were predominately Black people, despite the fact that all six families were white-owned. Although many Black people auditioned for the roles of each family, none of the actors for the show portrayed any members of the Black communities. - -The storyline of the show was primarily centered on the theme of family. However, the show also addressed issues such as racism, discrimination and violence, and included the lives of some transgender people. Other topics addressed included homophobia, abuse, and mental illness. - -History - -The producers and executives behind the show made sure that it was culturally sensitive. The show was a pilot of sorts for Black-ish, ABC's freshman sitcom starring comedian Tracee Ellis Ross (the original series was canceled after only nine episodes). At the time, it was not clear if Ross would ever film an hour-long show or if the series would go on any longer than six scripts. In any case, the six families were chosen from more than a hundred families who met in a church in Houston after the initial series was shot. However, the show's creator, Kenya Barris, revealed that Black-ish would not include any of the families that originally had been chosen for the show. - -The show's first four episodes aired between March 1, 2015, and March 31, 2015. The first episode, "The New Mommy," focused on an African-American family with two children. The second episode, "Settler Girl," featured a mixed-race family from Mississippi in their second year of marriage. The third episode, "House Party," tackled various issues including homophobia and racism, and featured some of the show's main characters, including the Black mother who is struggling with her children at home as well as some of her relatives. The fourth episode, "The Family Tree," covered a group of gay families and featured the Black father, played by George Wendt. - -The final episode, "Hollywood," featured two white and two Black couples, respectively, in a white suburban home in suburban Atlanta. In these episodes, the characters addressed various issues that were central to other episodes of the series, like the recent shooting at a black church, as well as the difficulties of being gay or lesbian. - -Despite its black-centered premise, the show did not have any predominantly black actors in leadership positions on the show during its run. However, a few were hired to produce the show. - -The show received positive reviews, and received two Primetime Emmy award nominations, for Outstanding Comedy Series in its first season and Outstanding Drama Series in its second season. Each season aired between February 19, 2016, and April 16, 2016, and aired in the timeslot following the regular broadcast of the NFL. - -Episodes<|endoftext|>D.C.

It's already on a collision course, but if it's not stopped by now, it'll slam into Earth and split off into two separate pieces, one that'll hit the Earth and the other one that won't. That one won't be as big, though, and won't be enough to cause as big an environmental disaster. It'll hit Earth when it's about a half a mile across. But that won't mean too much, because no one's gone out and put a big enough telescope out there to pick up the pieces." - -"Okay, well, what's the problem with that?" - -"If that asteroid hits Earth, we're going to miss Earth by, you know, twenty-fifty million miles." - -"Well, what's Earth?" asked the woman, looking for a clue in the dark clouds of clouds. - -* * * - -"That's not what that meteor looked like," said Bill, "That's not what an asteroid looks like, that's what a comet looks like.

Just burn it and be done with it. Nothing to worry about." - -"Okay, Bill, okay," she said.

"We have nothing to worry about!" - -* * * - -"Miss Svetlana, could you please tell me where I can get some ice-cream?" said Bill, going back inside and putting ice cream on his sandwich. - -"Ummm… I'm not doing well." - -The lady came back inside and got out of the car for a minute.

For now, we have a few ideas on where they could go if they decided to add another game to the 2016 bowl season. - -The Orange - -As much as we'd love to see the committee end its postseason ban and play some "national championship" games, it's going to be a much easier sell if the committee's goal is not to keep track of everyone from Oklahoma to Iowa over the course of a two-week stretch. After all, it'd be a waste of time and money for the committee to watch the same programs multiple times. - -So, there's little reason for the committee to include another game than the obvious one: Clemson in the semifinal. With the Orange out of the College Football Playoff, the committee could have the Clemson-Arizona semifinal on their docket. Or, you might not see one at all. - -The Big Ten - -While the ACC had its share of issues in the first round of the playoff, it was the Big Ten that managed to make itself look worse than ever in Round One. That being said, the committee could still do a lot better on the whole. - -So, where do these schools fall in the Big Ten's bucket? Sure, Iowa's a potential title contender, but the same could be said about Michigan State and Penn State. Minnesota doesn't have the most wins (7 to 9) but they were one of the surprise teams this season. Ohio State had their struggles in 2016. Michigan and Michigan State are the team's that had the worst seasons on the field. - -Still, the committee probably doesn't want to spend time putting a team that's barely good enough to qualify for the postseason through a bracket of teams that have won five bowl games, including one in which they went down to double overtime in front of the home crowd (Wisconsin at Madison). - -The Big 12 - -While the Big 12 is in some sense the Big Ten's little brother, the committee still could do worse than to add Baylor and TCU to the pool of playoff teams.

However I never knew what was coming until my son became interested and he tried some of the foods I grew up on. - -When it comes to Thanksgiving this year I thought I would try a vegetarian/vegan version of traditional Thanksgiving meals.

This may seem counterintuitive – after all, it may look as though we are already well on our way towards meeting the goal of keeping warming under 1.5 degrees Celsius, defined as a 'safe' warming limit. But according to the US EPA, the US' greenhouse gas emissions will not stabilize until 2021, and will hit an all-time high by 2030. - -But how to fix what's broken in the fossil fuel industries is one question. The larger question is: how to make our energy system more sustainable long term? The United States is already in deep trouble for climate change and air quality, and the nation has already committed to a course of fossil-fuel extraction, shipping and burning that will make the challenge even harder later on. However, the solution depends on the policies and technology driving our current energy consumption. - -So what kind of technology could we use to tackle climate change? What would be better for a country with a history of air pollution, and a nation that now burns more coal, gas and oil than ever before? - -Climate change - -The challenge of climate change, including extreme weather events such as droughts, floods and fires, is inextricably tied to human activity. Climate scientists believe that more carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere when we burn fossil fuels as opposed to using less fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, and humans have a lot of it in their bodies, whether it's in the air we breathe, in the water we drink, or in the food we eat. Carbon emissions trap heat in the atmosphere, and this warming impacts the entire globe. - -Fossil fuels and coal have been used since the beginning of time. But it wasn't until the industrial development of the 19th century that they were harnessed into the industrial structures that allow us to manufacture everything from TVs and refrigerators, to cars and airplanes and all manner of other products. When humans use fossil fuel resources, there are two ways that this happens: in the form of an energy source as part of a process like manufacturing a car, building a house or moving a country, or, in the form of a waste product. By burning an energy source, we make a product that has an energy cost. By using fossil fuel energy, we make a waste product. We can choose which kind we want to use. In this case, we decide to burn oil, coal or natural gas to move around a country. We're also using fossil fuel energy to build the houses, buildings and structures for which we're so proud. These are the primary ways that we use fossil fuel energy. - -In addition, fossil fuel energy also contributes to climate change because some of it's the waste products from the energy-producing process – such as sulphur, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Because they produce heat during their combustion, emissions that are produced are called 'GHGs' – or greenhouse gases. We emit these emissions from our heating and cooking systems, and from the factories where our cars, homes and manufacturing machinery are made. They also contain some of the greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector. - -According to the United Nations, global greenhouse gas emissions have increased by over 40% over the last decade, to around 1 trillion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent every year. The vast majority of that increase is from fossil fuel use and deforestation. It's only by tackling the source of emissions, burning fossil fuels or reducing carbon emissions that our climate will stay within safe limits. - -A world of clean energy - -To deal with climate change, we have only two options: we can build new technologies – such as clean energy technologies and fossil fuel-free renewable energy sources – to replace energy resources that have a high carbon footprint, or we can replace energy with energy waste from dirty energy sources. - -A report published this year states that the energy sector is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions and carbon dioxide globally. That's why the global climate summit in Paris should aim to achieve a global energy system that is at least as sustainable as the one that exists today. - -For a country with a fossil fuel past and a strong energy economy to deal with climate change, energy and climate policies must take into account the scale of our current energy consumption, and the technology it uses. We have yet to see adequate energy policy policies worldwide for the clean energy technologies and clean vehicles it will take to decarbonise our energy system. And there's plenty of evidence that policies that favour fossil fuels will make things even more difficult in the years to come, as we struggle to bring coal and oil production costs into the current low cost range. - -How to build a greener future<|endoftext|>The UK government has admitted plans have been drawn up to send UK troops to train Iraqi soldiers, and the Pentagon said in a recent briefing that the British "military option remains on the table". - - -======================================== SAMPLE 227 ======================================== - -A few weeks ago, when you walked into the grocery store or the supermarket you saw a small table with a variety of delicious fruits and veggies, right by the produce section was a sign that read "no animals were used in its creation," as a way of showing customers that the produce is truly free from animal suffering.

The idea — that a strong leader can inspire and energize not only yourself but your people — has been with me for a long time. Of course, those in my generation, for whom Hillary Clinton has been a hero, will recall the 2008 campaign in which she delivered her famous speech saying that she was in the race not to be president but to "break a glass ceiling." That was a defining moment for the women's movement of that era. - -It's time for Bernie to step up. It's time for him to do what he's never done before and show some leadership and inspire America's young people. And so today, on behalf of those of us that have been paying attention, I urge you, Bernie Sanders, to finally do the right thing. The last thing the country needs is a candidate who simply ignores the issues facing youth, while pretending that what's happening in the world today isn't a major issue, particularly for young people growing up in this country. The last thing this country needs is a candidate who has to appeal to older Americans, people in senior states, even those who do not live here. You can never win with 50-point margins anymore. You can't win with a 2 percentage point lead at the end. It's time for him to step up. - -To be sure, a lot of the problems that I want to talk about are still happening today. We have one of the highest unemployment rates for our young people today, and we're going to have much, much higher unemployment in the future. I don't think it's just you, Bernie. People in all of our states are working so hard and still don't have enough money to pay their bills and put food in the table. We have problems with poverty and homelessness and the need to raise wages. We still have a long way to go, but the changes we need to see are coming. And I truly think that the American people, whether or not they want to vote for you, understand what our country needs right now, but they are not going to vote for somebody who dismisses these issues. - -That was a call to service. We can never give up now. We need a new generation of leaders. We need someone who has come into politics with real experience — Hillary Clinton did — and she got out there and took on the big fights that many thought not only impossible but impossible to win.

One reason for using things is convenience, but convenience has cost: people lose valuable productivity from having to keep up with a messy workspace. Here's a list of some of the more common reasons to get rid of things: - -1. "Clean" is not "clean anymore" - -This sentiment applies to just about anything. The feeling that "I'm finally getting rid of that messy desk" usually doesn't extend for computers. Computers are always a mess. They smell like cigarettes, people spill things on them, etc. That's because it's a technology, and a technology is made with humans in mind. - -2. "Now I can move to the cloud" - -Moving stuff to the cloud is more appealing because it has the benefits of being portable and easy to move, but it costs you even more. You'll also get more time and less work for just the cost of paying a monthly fee or purchasing a service.<|endoftext|>Crowdfunding is taking off. Over the past few years, the number of projects for sale on Indiegogo has more than doubled, and the number of projects on Kickstarter has grown by a factor of 2, meaning that crowdfunding is becoming the new source of capital for startups. - -It's a fantastic and exciting time to be an entrepreneur. But for me, the real potential lies in the next level: a platform that makes it easy for aspiring entrepreneurs to connect and build upon their business ideas. - -I've been thinking more and more about this for quite some time now, and I have a few ideas that I believe will help make it very easy both for startups and individuals to get funded, share their ideas and build a community of support around them. - -Here's how I think about Kickstarter and Indiegogo, and what I believe will improve them if applied: - -Kickstarter - -Kickstarter has the ability to give the world a new way to fund projects, and it can be great for businesses both big and small. It is especially important to give smaller brands an opportunity to get off the ground, and to do it quickly. - -So where does Kickstarter fit in this picture? Well, if you are a business, you've probably noticed that all businesses need crowdfunding to survive. If you are a startup, you have been told, and so have I, that you need enough capital so that you can start. - -There's many ways that you can start building up your business in any way that you can imagine.

But one of these people was born and raised in a town on Newfoundland's west coast: - -He was a "social media molester?" - -That's how local police described the suspect in the case of a 14-year-old Newfoundland girl who went missing in December. - -He's been described in the media as a teenager — his own parents say he was almost 24 — who is also transgender. - -Police said he's now in custody and will face a charge of first-degree murder. - -He won't be named to protect relatives of Kristine Mihevc, the girl's mother, which the Crown is calling a privilege. - -"I just felt like the media was overblowing this, and I didn't want the media overblowing her, that this is not the situation," Cindy Mihevc told CBC News. - -Her son is missing, she says, and police are "worried" the public is seeing the family as something they aren't. - -The boy's name isn't being released because, he's just a 14-year-old that's not supposed to even be alive. It's just the name that's leaked, and they don't want to be labeled the suspect or the bad guys. — Cindy Mihevc, Kristine's dad - -"If he's a suspect, so be it, it's all information that the police have at this time, but we're not going after him, we don't want this to be a witch-hunt situation," Mihevc said. - -"There is no reason to jump to any conclusion." - -In other jurisdictions, including Canada and United States, journalists, advocacy groups and legal and media experts have called for restrictions to the privacy of the identities of those arrested for crimes, and of those who are missing or who are suspects in a crime. - -They've also advocated for strict media guidelines, in line with guidelines for police investigations and investigations involving minors. - -A 'glamour picture' - -Mihevc, however, disagrees. - -"He won't be named to protect his grandmother, who is the victim. She didn't give us his name, there's no legal protection for her, so we don't want to name anyone," she said. "We're not the bad guys anymore." - -Cindy Mihevc tells CBC News Kristine Mihevc is devastated by the news her son is missing in New Brunswick.

(CBC) - -'The world is changing' - -Kristine Mihevc told CBC News she would rather be talking about what happened to her daughter, not who is responsible. - -In an interview for her latest documentary, titled My Son — My Son: A True Story, Mihevc said the world is changing in terms of children and young adults who do things online. - -But it is also changing in many areas, not just for the transgender community, she said, but for the general public. - -"I hope you all understand the world is changing, it's really, really changing, and the world is not a nice place and I hope that you have enough tolerance to say please, let's leave the kids alone, let's let people speak out, you're not necessarily going to be the bad guy.

You can download it in the Windows Store for free. - -Microsoft claims that Edge is better than Chrome for Windows 10, but it's not the first browser to be upgraded in this way. Microsoft's own Edge browser, which doesn't include web extensions, was released in the fall of 2015, before Chrome was even a twinkle in Google's eye, and we know exactly how much Chrome improved over the years. - -But what if we're not talking about the next version of Chrome, or Firefox for Windows? What if we're talking about a different browser with the WebExtensions API? That's what we're going to talk about today, and see which one offers better performance in a less-used aspect of the browser, speed testing and benchmarking. - -It's worth noting that all three browsers have different features and performance issues that affect web browsing performance, and each one has a different feature set that can enhance speed. But this is how we'd compare them, and it should serve as a baseline. - -Speed Testing - -I recently spent some time benchmarking various browsers on Geekbench 3. I ran five runs on different PCs, and calculated the average, with some deviation for better context. - -Here's the original Geekbench 3 performance graph. - -The graphs below show the difference in scores. For each run, I also compared it against the Chrome Browser, Firefox, and Edge, because I use all of them for my day-to-day browsing. Also note that Edge uses the WebExtension API to enable speed tests. - -For the Speed tests, I tested the browser using Chrome, Firefox, and Edge. - -Chrome - -Edge - -Firefox - -Edge and Firefox have identical performance. - -Chrome has a higher score from the browser. - -Firefox has a higher score from the browser. - -Edge and Firefox actually have identical performance. - -Firefox and Edge have identical performance for the speed test. - -Edge performs below Firefox for the speed test. - -Edge and Firefox have identical performance for the speed test. - -Firefox and Edge have similar speed test scores for both the web and flash benchmarks. - -Firefox and Edge have identical WebExtensions API scores for both the web and flash benchmarks. - -Firefox and Edge have identical speed test scores for the web and flash benchmarks. - -Edge and Firefox perform similarly if we exclude the Flash benchmark results, which we didn't. - -Both Firefox and Edge have identical scores for the web-only Benchmark, both score about the same for the flash benchmark. - -The Flash performance is the highest out of all the browsers that I've used in this test. - -It's a slight improvement above how each of them compare to the last generation (Chrome) of Chrome, and the current version (Edge). - -The WebExtension API is an important part of the next iteration of Chrome, which is said to bring faster web browsing in Chrome for Windows 10. - -Firefox and Edge - -For speed testing, I tested Firefox and Edge. Here's what those versions look like. - -As you can see, they are identical. So, what's the point? Is that the difference, and does it matter? Is it the reason to use each of those two browsers to the exclusion of the others? Let's see. - -Firefox uses WebExtensions in Chrome, so it performs better. - -Edge does not support WebExtensions and uses its own extension system, so it does not perform better than Firefox. - -Chrome runs faster because it has some of the best JavaScript, the ability to render JavaScript inside WebExtensions, and the ability to optimize all JavaScript execution. All three browsers run at least one benchmark on Geekbench, except for Edge. Edge was able to do the single-core test with 4 threads, something Chrome cannot do. - -Edge runs faster with WebExtensions because they make it faster. - -If you want to run the benchmarks yourself on Windows 10, here's the files with everything you will need. - -All of these benchmarks are free for download. But the benchmarks that I include are generally the best that Microsoft has to offer. That means that the performance will be better in this case, not necessarily the best. - -Edge Benchmark - -WebExtension Benchmark - -These three are the most important benchmarks and they are the only ones that I run on my test machines. The reason for this is that all the other browser benchmarks are very subjective, and will not give a real-world answer. - -However, one thing is clear about them. When you look at them one by one, you can see that they are all significantly better than the other browsers. - -Edge is still the fastest for browsing.

Consistent with its statutory mandate, the Committee decided today to keep the target range for the federal funds rate at 0 to 1/4 percent, thereby maintaining the current extraordinary monetary policy stance. - - -The Committee reaffirmed that economic conditions have considerably improved since the Committee met in December. Gross domestic product expanded at a solid annual rate of 3 percent in the second quarter over the first, and real economic growth in the second quarter was stronger than the initial reading. On balance, the Committee now expects that economic activity will expand at a fairly steady pace, supported by rising household spending and business fixed investment. The Committee expects inflation to rise to its 2 percent objective over a medium-term period, supported by the stronger pace of economic growth and a lessening in the labor market pressures that have been weighing on inflation. Inflation expectations have risen appreciably over most of the present economic cycle. - - -At this meeting, the Committee was struck by considerable heterogeneity in its views about the outlook for the labor market and inflation. At this meeting the Committee reiterated that it expects an increase in the average pace of unemployment over coming quarters, with no immediate change in the overall unemployment rate. The Committee anticipates that inflation over the medium term will remain on a path close to 2 percent, which would be consistent with its goal of maximum employment. - - -A number of participants raised the possibility that inflation could rise above the Committee's longer-run objective in the near term due to factors that are difficult to identify, such as temporary factors that have contributed to the recent improvement in employment, or some combination of factors that is unlikely to become transitory. Some participants indicated that, in light of both these and other factors, they would like to see the longer-run inflation objective become more accommodative. Others noted that, in the short run, there were also considerable concerns about longer-run inflation expectations. The Committee views the risk of inflation running below 2 percent as being low. The Committee expects this risk to be offset to some extent by the Committee's expectation of further progress toward achieving its inflation goals. - -The Committee also reaffirmed its views about the appropriate stance of monetary policy. Consistent with its statutory mandate, the Committee chose to remain actively engaged in monitoring inflation developments in order to ensure that inflation remains at a level that is both likely to be consistent with its dual mandate and, to the extent possible, also promotes strong economic results. Given that inflation has declined slowly since peaking in late 2014 and recent improvements in labor market conditions are modest by historical standards, the Committee is likely to continue to evaluate inflation developments carefully in light of its dual mandate. In light of these considerations, the Committee chose to maintain the target range for the federal funds rate at 1/4 to 1/2 percent. At this meeting, participants agreed that the appropriate stance of monetary policy remains accommodative at this time. - -In deciding how to proceed, the Committee noted that economic conditions have improved further since the asset purchases were first initiated in October and that employment continued to expand strongly in recent months. While inflation has risen only slowly since the end of 2014, the Committee now expects inflation to move back toward its longer-run objective over the medium term (see "Information for Policy Decisions—Information for Policymakers"). This increase in inflation expectations has also contributed to a somewhat -======================================== SAMPLE 232 ======================================== -In 2013, a new video clip emerged of Barack Obama discussing Iran's nuclear program during one of his speeches. The footage had not been seen before and is now raising questions of what the president knew about his nation's intentions before taking office, and when. - -The video, which was published on November 4, 2013, by YouTube user 'Al-Muhajiroun', appears to show both Obama and Vice President Joe Biden discussing a deal with Iran. In the video, you can hear the president say, "I was going to take what is a bad deal, and I was going to turn it around." And then, "If we solve the problem we're in a pretty good position. I would rather see this than see it get worse." - -The Vice President and Obama then discuss a list of demands from Iran to settle the nuclear crisis. These include: - -A termination of all missile activities and the destruction of the Quds Force (an Iranian special forces unit within the military), along with the return of Iranian hostages in the United States. - -The removal of sanctions. - -The release of American prisoners being held in Iran. - -Bipartisan support from the international community. - -An end to U.S. sanctions - -The following is a transcript of what the video said to be Obama's words on the matter, as it was published: - -The American people made me this president. I accept the mandate to bring change. I have always believed we could make a better deal. I am going to work with Congress to make the best deal that we can. But I recognize all the hard work ahead of us. Every day, we're going to spend some effort trying to improve the overall deal. But in order to make progress, we've got to be able to get all sides agreeing to what has to be done. So if by some small stretch of the imagination, the status quo was better, then I guess I'd accept that. - -You can listen to the video here: - -During the campaign, some pundits doubted the authenticity or context of what Obama said. "If this tape doesn't prove that the White House has been keeping an eye on its Iranian partner, then it doesn't prove it at all. But given the fact that the White House released the video before Obama himself gave his acceptance speech at the Democratic Convention, which was also recorded by the group, there's just no telling the scope of information that has been compiled on the president's contacts with Iran's government." - -The White House has yet to release official footage of the video. The next day, November 5th, Obama said he would "wait and see" what the footage looks like and whether it proves any wrongdoing. - -While Obama could say that he believes the deal is the "best possible deal" for America, the man is also the Commander-in-Chief of its armed forces. In order to keep America safe, it is crucial that the United States is able to act in concert with other nations. America should not use its military capabilities to get what it likes in the Middle East. - -The video comes at a sensitive time in the campaign. Recent polls suggest that Republican challenger Mitt Romney is closing in on Obama's lead. - -President Obama and Joe Biden may have revealed some details of Iran's nuclear program, but they did not reveal the secret of what Iran has actually done. If they have done this, it is only because they are unable to control the Iran's government. America cannot allow Iran to become a nuclear power. - -Click "like" if you are PRO-LIFE! - -print<|endoftext|>Frequently Asked Questions - -General Questions - -Q: How does the new "Frequency of Fluid Consumption" feature work? - - -Q: How can I reset my device to factory default settings? - -Q: I need to add a new user, but I need help! - -Q: I need to delete an app that I don't use!

This new committee will examine the extent to which the ecological impacts that resulted from the Deepwater Horizon spill impacted coastal economies throughout the Gulf of Mexico on a local, regional, and national level. The panel also will address the state's regulatory response to the spill's impact on the Gulf's ecosystems. More than 1,100 scientists from the public and private sectors, academic institutions, and federal agencies from 38 states and the District of Columbia responded to the agency's requests for their scientific input. The panel includes scientists from both coasts, in both North and South America, as well as scientists from other countries. The panel's work will contribute to a better understanding of the consequences of the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The new panel will meet weekly for more than a year to review the panel's findings. The meeting schedule, which will go into effect immediately and will be published in the Federal Register, will be posted in each panel's web site. "The public needs a clear and accurate understanding of why the Deepwater Horizon oil spill occurred, and how the federal government responded to it," said Mark Hartung, senior scientist at the Center for Biological Diversity. "The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service cannot investigate the effects of the explosion of BP's Deepwater Horizon drilling rig without an independent science panel that provides scientists in every region of the country with accurate information about why and how the spill occurred." For more than three months, the Center for Biological Diversity has been collecting and analyzing publicly available information about the effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, documenting, mapping, and visualizing the Gulf's oil spread and damage. The Center has also been reporting damage to birds and fish, and has produced video, graphics, and maps that illustrate how oil and gas are polluting the Gulf's seas, rivers, and beaches and harming migratory bird and fish populations. These maps, videos, and photographs are available at www.biologicaldiversity.org; on Twitter @biologicaldiversity and @cbiendanger; on Facebook .

Whether in the New England towns that attracted pioneers and made the nation's first permanent settlement in 1620, the early years of the American frontier in the late 1700s and early 1800s or some of the larger cities, the American utopias that have lived on are mostly the products of the American quest for freedom, individualism and social harmony. - -The most famous and influential of these was created during the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630. It was the New Albion settlement in the Connecticut Valley, a community based on hard work, the pursuit of personal glory, and self-reliance rather than government regulation. The settlement was founded by an English immigrant named Edmund Calvert and comprised many of his followers, including his son, John. The colony's motto was: "Peace, plenty, and good will to all." Although the colony was not successful in its first year's effort to establish order, the English government eventually granted the colonies their right to secede from the United Kingdom, and in 1645, after much controversy, the colony declared independence from the British Empire. They soon expanded outward to the other colonies, creating the American colonies. Today, New England, New York and most of New Jersey also include communities that are modeled in part after New Albion. - -Utopian city-states and towns around the world - -The first significant utopian city-state was founded by Dutch Huguenots in 1581, in what is today Belgium. But only 100 residents lived there. This town, today known by its unofficial name of Koppenden, was part of a communal society where peasants worked together on farms, shops, offices, and churches. The Huguenots founded the city-state of Flanders, located in central and south-eastern Belgium, in the early 16th century. The town soon grew to include 40,000 members. The town was ruled by the "general council," an assembly of 10 to 12 families who were chosen from one another, with the mayor and the three members of the local village council chosen from among their families. It was also the site of important religious events, such as weddings. A new social order called "Jubilee" developed in Koppenden after the defeat of the Spanish Armada during World War I. The Jubilee was similar to New Albion's communal self-government, where all households were equal and could elect their own chief and council. After the end of World War II, Koppenden fell apart with the end of the Dutch monarchy. Today, the town is known for its old buildings and its traditional way of life. - -The second major utopian city-state was founded by the Puritans in the Puritan settlement of Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1630. During the reign of King Philip II of Spain, the colony was invaded and lost a large part of its settlers' goods, which were confiscated to help finance the colonial war. The colony's leaders resolved to establish their own economy without government interference, and to provide all residents with a living in 1635. Their first step was to establish a government-administered economy and to provide a town meeting for each household. The towns and villages were then organized into ten townships, each consisting of three villages and a church, each with its own chief, council, and sheriff. Each town had a justice of the peace and a police force. The Plymouth Colony, as it became known, was the model for other cities, townships, villages, and colonies beginning in the 1640s and 1640s. Today, its ruins sit on the rugged Boston Plain in the northeastern part of Massachusetts.<|endoftext|>I have seen many articles that explain how to "use your iPhone or iPad a more creative way." It doesn't take very very long before they reveal their most interesting point; that one can use an iPhone or iPad to create a virtual "tablet" for use as a "tablet" in the real world. To me, this is more work than just using the iPad in a real environment because not only do I have to get up. The display must also be set up for a real room rather than a small room. There is also the inconvenience of keeping the iPad in a case. I don't feel there is anything more creative than just using an iPad. I don't have to constantly remember to turn it back on, and I don't have to bring along an actual tablet. The iPad is a fully functional touchscreen in the real world. - -One of my best inventions has been using my iPad in a work environment as a real-world display. I have been known to use it under a table or table top and it works great! I will say that in the past I have used an iPhone or iPad as a display in my office, not my real office. -======================================== SAMPLE 235 ======================================== -The American Enterprise Institute has announced it will spend $15,000 on the reelection campaign of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. According to the institute, Walker is "a bold, pro-life conservative who has fought for jobs and the middle class" and a "reformer who has fought for the best public policy for Wisconsin." The $15,000 spending is the largest ever by the group. The Wisconsin Jobs and Economy Association was asked for the money by Walker's re-election campaign, but was rejected. - -Walker is one of the top politicians in America who's been working to take on the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) and other anti-worker, pro-corporate lobbies. The American people, not ALEC, deserve a governor who will fight for their freedom, not a lobbyist who'll turn the state into a corporate plantation. - -Since Walker's election in 2011 ALEC has been on fire. With a new member this year to the board, ALEC is working to pass so-called "Stand Your Ground" laws that would permit and promote the use of deadly and deadly force against people who just try to escape an assault. This is what ALEC did in Wisconsin in April of 2012 when Scott Walker was governor. ALEC passed a bill to allow businesses to have the right to use deadly force to protect themselves and employees when confronted by a criminal who was involved in some criminal activity. ALEC also supported the voter ID laws the Governor signed for the November elections. - -Walker's support for ALEC's political agenda has put him in the "right wing" spotlight. Many news outlets have used phrases such as Walker the Tea Party-style Republican, Walker the Evangelical-style Christian, Walker a Republican Party-style politician and even Walker, the "Republican of the Badger State." This last is particularly true given Walker's anti-union, anti-worker and pro-business agenda. Walker has called for the creation of "American Jobs Corps" which is a federal program to hire teachers, administrators and workers to take their place in state and local school systems. - -Walker's Wisconsin Jobs and Economy Association (WJA) is the latest recipient of the AEI's "big bucks" in Wisconsin politics. The new member of the Wisconsin Jobs and Economy Committee, which is a sub-committee of AEI, is Wisconsin's AFL-CIO and the Wisconsin Council on Domestic Issues, which represents major corporations. The two groups had been meeting, and Walker's own State Senate Republican leader, Rep. Chris Kapenga from Appleton, had proposed to the state Democratic Party that unions would be replaced in the party by WJC member groups. But Kapenga withdrew his plan to the GOP. - -Walker and WJC also support the "Freedom to Work" bill which would allow for companies to negotiate with employees who choose to work at another employer. The proposal is being promoted by the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) which has worked to undermine unions all over the country. Walker and WJC have given money to ALEC over the years as well and WJC has also endorsed Walker's recall election and the 2014 Senate elections as well. It is worth noting that when Walker vetoed an income tax hike, he used an ALEC-written economic growth plan from the Heritage Foundation, and Wisconsin was ranked number one in job creation in the nation under Walker's economic growth plan. - -Walker also worked closely with ALEC's "Stand Your Ground" Act, a law pushed by conservative billionaire Charles Koch, that gives the right of individuals to use deadly force in self-defense even when that force is illegal. ALEC has a lobbyist on the Wisconsin state Senate, Rep. Joel Kleefisch, who also represents the oil, gas and mining industries. "Stand Your Ground" has been very helpful for the Koch brothers as they have pushed numerous ALEC-written bills since 2010. - -According to the Huffington Post, WJC had $5 million in the bank as of August 2012 and the AEI had $13 million in the bank. In a statement from the Walker camp this week WJC said they have contributed to the governor's campaign because of his anti-union positions. According to the organization's website, the organization "is working on a number of fronts to advance and promote Walker for governor, and to ensure that Wisconsin remains a beacon of opportunity to all who live here" and that it "is currently raising money in support of these efforts." The Wisconsin Jobs and Economy Association also says it works "to bring Wisconsin businesses, policymakers and educators together on important questions of the day, as well as promote Wisconsin to national and international leaders in industry and business." - -American Enterprise Institute is no stranger to using corporate subsidies for special interest groups. For example, in August a federal judge ruled that the Koch-funded American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) has broken ethics laws by using tax-exempt organizations to promote their right and special interest agenda when discussing public policy. - -"This was the first case of its kind for our organization," said Michael Grebe, ALEC's Executive -======================================== SAMPLE 236 ======================================== -A new study from the Pew Research Center and the Annenberg Public Policy Center finds a majority of Americans now support the legalization of marijuana — a trend that's been in place, in some form, since 1991. - -Support for legalizing marijuana reached the highest point in Pew's polling since Gallup began asking the question in 1973, with 51 percent of the country now either in favor of the idea or somewhat supportive it. - -As recently as 1990, fewer than half of Americans support legalizing it. - -"The legalization of marijuana is no longer a fringe trend," John Della Volpe, the head of the Annenberg Center, said, "it's now among the mainstream." - -That shift marks a substantial change in national views on cannabis. But the report doesn't offer what the marijuana industry would describe as the "breakthrough" that's long been the goal of pot-legalization advocates, which has involved changing public opinion through direct lobbying efforts, political action committees, and ballot initiatives that have garnered support from several states. - -It appears legalization proponents have already surpassed their goals for 2014, though. On Election Day, support for recreational legalization in Colorado, Washington, Oregon, Alaska, and the District of Columbia was about 80 percent. - -Despite the legalization push, the survey found that Americans are still far less supportive of the drug than other segments of society: only about a third think it should be legal, according to the poll. Americans are more likely to say they drink alcohol legally than to think it's okay to drink cannabis.<|endoftext|>The first thing to notice is the color—a vibrant blue and orange. - -Here's what the top looks like. - -On the back of the box, it says, "One side is silver, the other is black. The metal sides are coated in gold." - -The gold "side" seems very shiny, like a mirror. And it's very noticeable that there's a hole in the bottom where it fits around the battery. It's also noticeable that I can see the little white stripe, but I'm not sure I actually see it. - -The power button is on the left, and the volume rocker is on the right. Both of them are also metallic and smooth. - -Here's the back. - -Here are the little holes that the battery attaches to. - -The plastic is still super thin. - -Also pretty thin, but not so thin that it's translucent - -The micro USB connector is not on the back, as we saw a bit ago on the LG G Pad 8.0. - -The SIM card slot is on the left, the microSD slot and phone charger hole on the right. - -Here's the back of the phone. - -Let's do the phone now. - -You can see the little "Door Closes" screen. You really get a sense of how thin this thing really is. - -You'll notice that the battery in here is very large. - -Here are the two speaker grills, with the microphone hole (the one we saw on the Galaxy S4, and the small one on the Nexus 5) attached. - -I'm guessing that Google is using the same materials that they use on the case for this phone. - -Here are the bottom buttons: - -You'll notice that the back is a little more rounded. - -And now the backside. - -A lot better. - -There's a big hole in the middle here. The headphone jack is on the bottom. - -And a small, square opening at the top. This is the charging port. - -Also, the battery cover is the same silver metal that was on the Nexus 5, which also had the headphone jack (or should that be the speaker?). - -It's very interesting to be able to take a look at the software. There are a lot of little things that make this phone different. - -The Nexus 5 was one of those phones that was super simple. It used the HTC Sense software with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. But it was still very similar to other Android phones out there, right down to the launcher and lock screens. - -If you were one of those who just wanted a really simple phone, the Nexus 5 offered you that. But if you wanted to customize it, like those who prefer Samsung TouchWiz (like myself), then the "nexus devices" weren't for you. - -Google Now was the exception. There's actually a lot to like in Google Now, which is why people liked LG's One (and even HTC's One Max). - -The Nexus 5, on the other hand, has a lot of options. It's not just your standard Android, either. Google's got the "Now on Tap" feature that lets you use voice interactions and information like location data to suggest things, and it's all in the Google Now layer. The search box lets you pull up the web when called for. - -Google -======================================== SAMPLE 237 ======================================== -B.C. Premier Christy Clark says her government will move to create a more transparent and accountable process for building roads in B.C. - -Her comments came after the province decided this week to make a new highway construction process mandatory for all projects, even those in the planning and design phase. - -She made the announcement before the B.C. Lions took on the Calgary Stampeders in a pre-season game at B.C. Place on Saturday, and said the public should know what will happen before any construction starts. - -"We're going to make sure we've taken measures to make sure the public knows what's going on, because in the design phase these decisions are very difficult and decisions that shouldn't be made as they're being studied but once they're being designed, they have to be made," Clark said. - -'This process has been out there for so long' - -B.C.'s Transportation Ministry announced earlier this week that all projects under $100 million will have to go through an open and rigorous process where contractors have the opportunity to challenge their own estimates. - -That includes determining whether they can afford to build the road – or if the proposed cost is high or too low. - -It has been more than a decade since the province's first government study said it would be best to have the public involved before any project was underway. - -"We're doing a lot of research on that, and we're very serious about that. Because while I think it's important, it's very challenging to do it right," said Clark. - -"We have to be transparent and accountable. And so we're going to give this process a couple of years and then after that we will put in place a system that we can make changes to as we will see fit." - -'We're just going to go ahead' - -When asked about criticisms from the construction industry that a new process would be difficult and costly, Clark said the government had no need for the industry in the first place. - -"We are investing to build a better province," she said. "We're just going to go ahead, and they'll go ahead to make those decisions." - -B.C.'s Construction Association Executive Director Mike Devereux said his organization was not consulted in the province's decision. - -"The last thing we need is a new process that will be a long time coming for a sector that depends on this country for 80,000-plus jobs every single year, and we need to ensure the new process is done right," he told Power & Politics.<|endoftext|>The most effective way to avoid and treat anxiety is through mindfulness meditation. A study released by Stanford's Center on Longevity and the Behavioral Insights Team finds that mindfulness, when combined with behavioral therapy, can actually help relieve anxiety. - -"Mindfulness is the deliberate, focused awareness of present thoughts, emotions, sensations, and bodily sensations," said the study's lead author, James S. Levine, Ph.D., assistant professor of psychology at Stanford. "Mindfulness practices provide a foundation of understanding about the nature of anxiety and how it works." - -He and colleagues from the Stanford Behavioral Insights Team measured participants' cortisol responses as they engaged in anxiety management training as part of their research. They found that mindfulness-based cognitive interventions helped reduce people's stress and anxiety levels. - -"One of the surprising things that we realized as the research unfolded was that there were multiple mechanisms at play that helped sustain people's resilience when confronted with stressful events," he said. "We saw that when people were able to engage the right parts of their brain, their stress and anxiety levels dropped." - -In a paper about the research, published in JAMA Psychiatry, authors from Stanford, the University of Washington and the Norwegian Institute of Health and Rehabilitation Research found that people who had mindfulness training experienced a decrease in negative moods, an increase in positive mood, and greater improvement in anxiety symptoms than those who did not receive training. - -Mindfulness, the researchers said, involves cultivating an awareness of one's thoughts, feelings, and sensations and regulating them in a way that facilitates insight into one's life and the situations in which they arise. It typically involves the deliberate awareness of thoughts and feelings and the ability to observe and respond to them. - -Mindfulness training is being found to be most effective when conducted through a supportive relationship between an individual and a trained therapist in the form of mindful awareness meditation. That is, during meditation, individuals are taught to focus their attention on feelings and thoughts without trying to change them, and are instructed to observe those thoughts and feelings, identify when they are distressing, and then simply observe them as the thought processes occur. - -"Our research suggests that mindfulness mindfulness training can help people who have had anxiety disorders or chronic pain or other physical condition that disrupts their health to regain greater resilience and control of those problems," Levine said. "We think that people who have these physical conditions can benefit -======================================== SAMPLE 238 ======================================== -MUNICH, Germany—In a move that stunned the business world, Volkswagen said on Sunday it would start selling a smaller, more fuel-efficient diesel-powered version of its popular Passat compact sedan in the U.S. next year, bringing the first American car built for the country's growing market to a stopgap, stop-gap model even as the wider Passat will remain available. - -...<|endoftext|>The Trump administration on Monday ordered the State Department to stop issuing visas to citizens of 38 majority-Muslim countries, citing security risks and the risk that the citizens could join terrorist organizations in the U.S. - -The executive order was intended to give the State Department an additional month to decide whether to resume issuing visas to nationals of those nations, according to the U.S. official. It does not apply to those from the four Muslim-majority countries -- Iran, Libya, Somalia and Sudan -- temporarily lifted from the list of banned countries by President Donald Trump in January. - -The move represents the third time the U.S. has blocked visas for nationals from the four countries — North Korea, Venezuela, Somalia or Sudan — as Trump has sought to tighten security measures and punish countries and individuals who his administration believes pose a risk to the U.S. - -A U.S. official familiar with the matter said the directive is "part of the plan to tighten up vetting policies on who we're allowing in." Trump signed two executive orders on Jan. 27, temporarily banning all Syrian refugees and citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries, along with Iraq, and restricting travelers from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. - -[The latest: Trump, CIA brief on Syria] - -"It's going to be a problem for the next six months and we need to know in advance if any people we're letting in are going to pose any threats to the U.S.," a senior U.S. official said. - -Trump, who campaigned on an "America first" platform, is not personally involved in the visa matter, as the official said. Trump is relying on his top national security officials to review visa issuances for countries, including Cuba, that have been identified as posing the highest risk. Trump has expressed concern that members of his administration are being drawn into an issue that is largely outside their purview. - -Asked whether Trump has directed senior national security officials to review visa issuances on countries identified as posing the greatest terrorist threat, the White House did not comment. - -"We will continue to prioritize countries and individuals that we think we can more effectively vet and prevent terrorist activities before they can even come here," said a senior White House official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to talk publicly about a subject beyond that of public commentary. - -The U.S. official said the review, currently led by Vice President Mike Pence, was being spearheaded by Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and Homeland Security Adviser Tom Bossert. Their report is due on March 15 and will have to consider the threat of individuals who have traveled to the countries or have lived there for extended periods. - -"This is one of the most important reports to the president because it'll be the first time the president has any objective data on the people who are coming in from those countries," the official said. - -A senior congressional staffer familiar with visa matters said that the Trump administration is asking for a 10-month delay in processing visa applications. That request has been denied by the State Department, a congressional aide said, but "they would be able to request to have their application expedited if they want in order to give them more time to make sure they are not the next target for terrorists like Nidal Hasan, who killed 13 and wounded more than 30 in November 2013 in a shooting at Fort Hood in Texas." - -"If it turns out we are giving them the same exact amount of time that other countries have in the past," the congressional staffer said, "it may not be worth it." - -Rep. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.), the ranking member of the committee that oversees the State Department, said he "cannot recall a previous instance when the State Department extended a visa waiver application by more than 100 days with such significant security concerns as identified in the Executive Order." - -"As concerns the executive order, it is important to note that the executive order does not grant preferential treatment or approval under the Visa Waiver Program," the agency said. "As with all visa applicants, there is an extensive application and visa adjudication process." - -Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has said the departments involved have the authority to decide whether to waive a country's visa ban, but he also said that the administration needed "to have a better handle" on where it was going to get its information and on the level of vetting the country would be able to provide. - -[How to move beyond North Korea's latest provocations] - -The State Department is required under law to determine -======================================== SAMPLE 239 ======================================== -Dive Brief: - -With one week remaining before a federal court hears arguments in its ongoing case to invalidate Seattle's $15 minimum wage mandate, a coalition of businesses is pledging to fight any ruling of its own. - -The Restaurants Industrial Council, led by the National Restaurant Association, Seattle's largest business organization, is set to file a lawsuit Friday against the City of Seattle on behalf of a dozen restaurants and delivery services. - -The companies, which include Papa John's, Chick-fil-A, Qdoba Mexican Grill, Red Robin and Starbucks, say they are losing millions of dollars to minimum wage hikes and would face a flood of customers from employees that would replace them, Bloomberg reports. - -Dive Insight: - -The Restaurant Industrial Council group represents some of the biggest national restaurant chains and is led by the National Restaurant Association, the industry's largest lobbying group. - -Since the City Council approved a measure in 2014 raising the city's minimum wage to $15, leading to the lawsuit, at least three lawsuits have been filed by individual businesses: one was brought earlier this month by Subway and another by Zappos, and the last suit was filed by a group of small, independent restaurants in March. - -These lawsuits, along with the pending federal case, are expected to be decided by the U.S. District Court judge Robert S.

We were impressed with the price / performance potential and the fact that this is essentially a small form factor RX 480. Since this isn't a reference design, MSI has taken a different approach to cooling with their own version of the popular Twin Frozr cooler. - -We now find ourselves in the position of seeing the new MSI Radeon RX 480 and the GTX 1060, both of which have a reference cooler at the same pricing, but AMD have a slightly different cooler design for RX 480. - -The new GPU features a Twin Frozr V cooler with a single 120mm fan that's flanked by a pair of massive 6-pin power connectors. This looks a lot like the RX 480 reference cooler, but we find that the two extra heatpipes are mounted onto the card in an upside down fashion (and not only are the two small vertical fins of the Twin Frozr V upside down, it's really the whole backside of the cooling solution). This will of course produce some increased temperatures with the fan on it's highest setting, but the rest of the card will remain cooler overall. - -At 4.6Ghz, AMD claim this is a higher clock speed than the reference clock speed of 2.6Ghz. We are of course testing this at stock settings as we want to see how that clocks up the RX 480 at a later date or if it can deliver the higher clocks. - -This card features a pair of 8-pin connectors along with a pair of 6-pin power connectors.

There were no significant differences in cognitive performance between the two groups, with significant differences between groups and between subjects occurring at the 10 and 30 minute marks (p < .05). The mean mean age of the study participants was 15.8 years (standard deviation [sd] = 4.0) with an average IQ of 88.8 (sd = 13.5), indicating that cognitive functions measured showed a normal distribution. There were no significant differences in reading comprehension between the two groups (p > .05), and no difference in verbal IQ between both groups (p > .05). There were no significant differences in memory for digit sequences in either the control or the intervention groups (p > .05), and no difference in working memory or reasoning (p > .05) between the groups. - -Results: There were no significant differences in general academic achievement between the two groups (p > .05), and no difference in IQ between the two groups (p > .05). None of the demographic variables of interest (gender, ethnicity, family background, education level, previous learning) differed in any other significant way between the two groups. However, there were some interesting differences in the cognitive skills affected by either of the interventions. It was noted that the intervention group scored higher with the test of working memory, which is considered to be the most important memory function, as well as with the verbal tests in reading comprehension than the control group. There were no significant differences between the two groups in IQ. - -Context: - -This study was conducted to determine the effects of learning one of five cognitive skills in an introductory psychology course. The study was initiated around the time the course began. Each student was randomly assigned to a separate intervention group consisting of reading comprehension (reading to children), learning to use and write, problem solving, logical reasoning, and working memory (working memory). The intervention groups were randomized to receive one of four different materials to take home. - -Participants: - -This study took place between August and September of 2014 at the University of Pennsylvania. Approximately 60 students were recruited through postings in the student newspaper. There were no significant differences in age, educational level, number of years in the school, or family background between participants. Participants were all from the Philadelphia area. The sample was balanced for age, gender, ethnicity, and family background. This was also controlled by a student sample size of 48. - -Main Outcome Questions: - -The primary focus of this study was to compare performance on the five different types of tests assessed by the course, and to compare the cognitive effects of one of three interventions. Participants were divided into two groups based on cognitive function in the course (in reading comprehension, working memory, and logical reasoning) and received all five tests. - -Primary Outcome: - -We determined the extent to which participants demonstrated increased test performance as measured by both reading comprehension and working memory (by using a standardized and valid test of these skills as the primary indicator of cognitive function). We did not include vocabulary or reading comprehension in this measure because these types were the most obvious signs of general cognitive ability in the course. The main measure we used was verbal IQ (IQ). We used an IQ score at each test to determine the range of ability, and then we divided the scores into IQ quartiles. The IQ score could not range more than 20, so we determined the group using the largest IQ quartile. - -Secondary Outcome: - -We included the measure of vocabulary (verbal IQ and vocabulary) because it is a measure of general cognitive ability rather than a measure of specifically a particular cognitive function (like reading comprehension). - -Results: - -The intervention group performed significantly better on each test in both reading (e.g., 4.08 vs. 3.94 on the reading comprehension test) and working memory (e.g., 1.75 vs. 1.65 on the working memory task) than the control group. There were no significant differences in terms of reading comprehension IQ at 10 and 30 minutes. The intervention group had greater verbal IQ scores than the control group at 10 and 30 minutes (p < .05), but the intervention group had less working memory scores than the control group at 10 and 30 minutes (p = .05). There were no significant differences between the groups regarding logical reasoning at 10 and 30 minutes. Finally, there were no significant differences between the groups regarding working memory IQ at 10 and 30 minutes (p > .05). - -Conclusions: This study showed that learning to use and write a list of three words from one of five subjects at 15 to -======================================== SAMPLE 241 ======================================== -Luxury & Design Luxo, one of the leading manufacturers of premium automotive accessories, introduces a new luxury sedan for 2015.

The newspaper ran a story about the strange building, with the headline "A Great Giant's City," a striking illustration depicting an oversized pyramid. Within a year the story was published in the New York Times. - -In January 1871, a new newspaper, The New York Bulletin, published a picture of the original sign. Two years later in October 1872 the New York Gazette reprinted the picture and the story of Wilson's letter. (Other sources say that a newspaper of the same name ran stories about a "Great Pyramid" in 1878; it appears that an ad appeared in a local magazine for the week of July 18, 1878.) - -The significance of this story is not yet clear. It probably inspired Joseph Campbell to write The Hero with a Thousand Faces, in which he discussed the Great Pyramid at the heart of ancient Egyptian culture. However, the story seems to be an example of the mythmaking that characterized the development of journalism during the nineteenth century. The story of this strange building was a good chance for journalists to use the latest scientific theories to tell a story about ancient Egypt, or in some cases to make some sensational claim—such as the legend of the Great Pyramid's secrets—that is too good to check out. - -The New York City Board of Health decided to investigate the pyramid because of the news stories—in particular The News in 1872—that the building and its "summarium" (the pyramid-like pedestals) were an example of "pyramidal architecture, or pyramidal architecture which may be regarded as the greatest curiosity in architecture." In contrast, other buildings in New York's State Thicket had no obvious significance except for being situated within the boundaries of the Thicket. - -What we know about the Great Pyramid today - -The Great Pyramid is a massive, four-sided, conical structure of roughly 100 meters on each side. The walls run on the horizontal axis through the two lower levels, while the upper levels rise steeply to a height of roughly 5,300 meters. The Great Pyramid is nearly two kilometres in diameter and its diameter is an impressive 26 meters less than that of the nearby Washington Monument. The outer casing is of gypsum, a mineral that occurs in granular forms, often described in the New York Times as resembling "little grains of sand." - -There is no evidence to suggest that the builders of the pyramids at Gizeh and Saqqara built the pyramids on purpose, but a number of scholars believe that they were built for various reasons. This is especially likely if one accepts the idea that pyramids were meant for rulers to live in while they ruled (a theory that still holds today). According to one account, as early as the 6th century BC, several pyramid masons were buried by ancient Egyptians in the Valley of the Kings. - -Although the Great Pyramid was the main pyramid for ancient Egypt and has been the most visited monument by tourists, it also has many lesser monuments. The two lesser pyramids that make up the Sphinx are known as Giza's Lower and the Middle. However, the largest pyramid in the world, built for Khufu in Khafra's time, is located in the Egyptian city of Abu Simbel. The main chamber of the pyramid is on the west side of the pyramid (its north wall). The upper reaches of the pyramid are made of limestone, and its walls are of stone. - -Giza pyramid contains the remains of two buildings. - -Giza's Lower and Upper pyramids are the most prominent features within Giza. Although these structures have been under excavation, they are not yet fully realized on the surface, although there are hopes that this phase is nearing completion.<|endoftext|>For all the attention paid to Apple's announcement last week of iOS 8, Microsoft's Windows 8 has managed to remain underappreciated. If the Windows 8 rollout had gone just as smoothly, it would have been the second month in a row an operating system has gone on sale that has surpassed the total desktop and notebook sales of Windows 7. - -Microsoft released Windows 8 on October 26, four months after Microsoft released Windows 7 on October 26, 2012. The Windows 8 launch was overshadowed by Apple's Mac OS X 10.8 Mavericks release and the Windows 8 launch was, in the words of Microsoft, "the biggest hardware event in the history of modern times."

Rep. Paul Ryan is leading the effort to cut N.I.H. funding; and on Tuesday, he gave a speech touting the provision, which he called "an important first step toward reforming the bloated, inefficient NIH and making sure it is focused on its core mission, creating and sustaining medical breakthroughs." - - -Is that really the best place to be putting a significant chunk of money, especially since there are better ways to address the growing number of people who may require medical breakthroughs? Of course not. - -But it is the best, most cynical way for Republicans to try to cut some extra money to increase Medicare spending. Republicans in the House and Senate are proposing to pay for the cuts through a new tax on private hospitals. But the problem with the private-health-insurance tax is that it is an effective cut that raises money for Medicare. - -The N.I.H. is the largest of America's public or private health researchers. Its research spending in 2015 totaled $34.5 billion, or 10 percent of the country's total medical research and development spending of $380 billion. That amounts to about $8 of every $10 that Medicare spends on health care, including hospital costs to provide care that is not covered by Medicare, according to a 2013 report by the N.I.H. - -According to our research, hospitals and patients are more and more using health insurance for non-emergency care, such as inpatient hospital stays and non-emergency treatment that may be needed to stabilize patients. About 50 percent of Americans who buy private insurance have a plan with some kind of outpatient doctor visits. And if we pay more for hospitals to treat more patients, then there will always be demand for more hospital beds for non-emergency care. - -Advertisement Continue reading the main story - -Medicare isn't the only government agency that makes use of health insurance for non-emergency care, however. Private hospitals themselves have long made use of insurance plans to help them compensate hospitals and doctors who provide care outside of hospitalization, known as other out-of-network care.<|endoftext|>The idea for NieR comes from a conversation between writer Yoichi Kotabe and producer Yosuke Saito at a coffee shop. The conversation was part of the "D-Pad" series about how to put a game together, so the first thing I wanted to know was, "What is NieR, and why is it important?" - -NieR is a sci-fi action-adventure title developed by PlatinumGames and published by Square Enix. It is the sequel to 2010's Platinum's action RPG, Vanquish. The two games are the last two titles developed by studio PlatinumGames in Tokyo (and the only two that have been released, so we'll stick with them). - -Unlike its predecessor, NieR was designed to be an action-adventure video game. It follows a young soldier named Riley Ashelon and her squad, with new hero Machina as their leader. The game features a mix of stealth, action and platforming elements, along with a few more conventional elements like combat and puzzles. (It also contains several anime-esque character designs, such as the one on the cover of our review). - -The game's plot is told both in-game and through non-explicit flashbacks. - -It's a short experience - about 30 to 40 hours of gameplay depending on how much you play. And I did play a bit. A very small bit. - -What do I mean by that? Well, I don't mean you could sit in a chair and play the whole game for three or four hours at a time... - -You can play the game over and over for several hours, but only after you finish a section (though you can restart parts after completing them, so it doesn't feel like overkill to try again). - -While that was my experience, other players have said some of NieR's more interesting areas to explore are a little tougher to get to. What does that mean? Well, it's possible you simply don't know how to get there. - -To get there you'll need to use an emergency beacon system that can be triggered by using the Switch Switch to flip the gamepad in the direction you want your character to face as you walk around (like in the screenshot below). It's not quite how it looks (it's actually used on the Wii version of the game), so it's unclear whether the Switch makes it appear. -======================================== SAMPLE 244 ======================================== -The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995 - -This page is currently being rewritten as part of the Skyrim Quest Redesign Project. - -The page is being rewritten and checked in several stages.

There he reveals to you that the location is only accessible by a single key, and you must now discover why. - -Find the Key [ edit ] - -Just outside of Volunruud, and a short distance from Volunruud's entrance, you can find a wooden crate that you can enter. Inside is a chest with the key, and an unlocked chest to your left, with a leveled lockpick and a few items inside. It is located at the entrance to the graveyard: - -The Key to the Grave [ edit ] - -Klimmek will lead you to an open area with many skeletons and one final, large skeletal structure. He will inform you that the key can only be used at a grave marker, so head back to Volunruud and activate a stone cairn to find the location of one of them: - -The Restless Grave - -Upon your arrival here, enter the cave and locate Volunruud's grave marker, by entering through the locked entrance on the opposite side of the area: - -The Restless Grave - -The grave marker will be marked by a large skull. Inside Klimmek will be waiting for you, along with a number of his vampires. Take out the vampires, and then quickly loot his chest to find the key, which will lead to a few more vampires who you can kill for more loot. Then talk to the dead vampire and tell him to stay at the grave. At this point you have the opportunity to pickpocket a few more items from them. - -The next time you enter Volunruud, you will see six more vampires, led by two vampires you killed in the first part of the quest (two if you are human). Kill these and the final vampire (and any others you may have already killed or found previously) to complete the quest. - -Reward [ edit ] - -Upon completion of this quest, the following rewards will be handed to you: - -4,550 gold - -10,000 gold - -3 Skill books - -Notes [ edit ] - -If you decide to attack all of the vampires at once before you receive this quest, you can continue on to the next quest, Night of the First Stone , as the final part of this quest does not actually occur. Also, you can always return to Klimmek, either after the initial conversation or upon completion of the quest. - -, as the final part of this quest does not actually occur. Also, you can always return to Klimmek, either after the initial conversation or upon completion of the quest. There are no more locations where you can find the key. - -There is a small possibility that after you have accepted your rewards from Klimmek and left the cave, all but three vampires become hostile during the following conversation. Kill them all and return to the grave marker with a leveled weapon to retrieve the key. - -If you use a spell on the key, it will stay in Klimmek's possession, just like the other five pieces of the key. Also, if you tell Klimmek to stay at the grave he will not leave. He will continue to wander Volunruud as before, where he will even tell you that you have "taken what you wanted", though he won't leave his spot. - -Klimmek will start the quest again if you wait for him outside of the cave. - -Bugs [ edit ] - -There will be no quest marker to the grave marker once completed, even if you have used the key. ? - -If you pickpocket a quest item from the vampires during this quest, you will not get the reward you were expected for this quest in your inventory. ? - -It is possible, but as of yet not a bug, that you will be teleported to the front of the gate that connects to the burial grounds -======================================== SAMPLE 245 ======================================== -Rajesh G.

He has worked in technology for more than 20 years, including as a columnist for Time Inc., where he now writes about startup strategies. He is also a board member for both IAM (Institute for the Advanced Study of Men) and Stanford Entrepreneur Institute. - - -At an IAM event in August, Mr. Gupta spoke with Michael Erlich, the CEO of iWatch. This interview follows an interview last week with Mr. Rajeev Ramchandani, the chairman and chief executive of e-commerce site MakeMyTrip.com. In that interview he also talked about the possibility of selling his share of the mobile-app developer for the Flipkart group to Flipkart for about $3.15 billion. As the Indian company has done many times before, it's a huge bet by Flipkart's founders and top management. The question that has to be asked is, does this move help or hurt Flipkart? And what's the chances that it'll pay off? - -This interview is condensed and lightly edited. - -Mr. Gupta: How do you think the Flipkart sale would enhance your ability? - -Rajesh G. Gupta: Flipkart is a huge success. It makes all kinds of smart investments in marketing and retail. It's so ambitious in its approach, and that's why it's a winner every single time it tries something new. We think that this is just one more step on an exponential curve to that success. - -If you look at e-commerce, online shopping is still really growing, but it's not expanding in a way that makes sense. You can see that it's getting more expensive every day, and there are fewer buyers to attract to those transactions and increase the value. Flipkart believes that if you expand your reach in China, the people who would make the purchases are online. - -They believe that the most important thing you should do in China is to help people who are buying on Amazon.com. In other words, Flipkart is the one company that does a great job of bringing that online buying experience to China, and we saw an opportunity to help them take it to the next level. - -It's a huge bet by Flipkart's founders and top management, especially after its recent struggles when it was hit by issues with its logistics and its payments infrastructure. - -What's the main takeaway? - -It's always important to keep an open mind and consider new opportunities before making your decision in a situation that offers many upside and downside risks. - -We think we've taken that approach. If I have to bet my own money on one outcome, I'd argue that it'll make things easier for Flipkart and for the Indian consumer. - -You talked about your view on e-commerce, the value in having a network in China, the importance of Alibaba in this country, and how it could help Flipkart grow. - -If you look at the e-commerce market in India, it's dominated by two players, Flipkart and Snapdeal. If you look at the value of the network they have established, and the value that Alibaba can add, it makes a lot of sense. - -To give you an idea of that, Alibaba has a market cap of about $168 billion, and Flipkart is around $45 billion. Alibaba is probably an even bigger player because of its technology and its vast scale. Flipkart on the other hand has a market cap of about $40 billion, and Alibaba is about $68 billion. So it gives you a sense of how much Alibaba could bring to the table through its technology. - -Would you consider selling Flipkart now? - -I wouldn't say that right now, but I see an opportunity to buy a piece of Flipkart. - -How would that help Flipkart? Would it help in the short-to-medium term? - -Yes. I think it would help. - -Have you thought about the possible deal price? - -Yes, I think it's worth $8 billion. - -How would you go about doing this? - -We have a process called "going public" that we've used before. It's like when you go into an IPO. You have a very public and transparent process, including going public with an EIS (equity in company) in India. And we have the advantage of having two shareholders: two shareholders are already in. For someone to bid for a piece of Flipkart is very difficult in our market. They have to wait for one of them to say 'yes,' and when the other says 'no,' it's very hard to make a deal because he doesn't have to share anything with the first side. - -What the Flipkart board could decide is what the board decides.

He was fined £1,000 by a military court. It was in this case that the then-British Home Secretary Jack Straw said of the soldier's case, "The evidence of his appalling offences is so powerful that he is serving a sentence which is beyond the sentence we would impose on a child rapist." - -That description was later echoed by former president of the European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso when he said this was "the most serious abuse of children that we have seen since the Second World War", and the conviction was upheld on appeal. - -However, at the end of 2002, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) appealed the sentence and appealed it again. - -The MoD claimed that the soldiers and the teenager at the house, Mark Lawrence, were strangers and therefore innocent. The High Court (HCC) agreed however, that Lawrence had made "false, misleading, and inappropriate" statements and the MoD failed to disclose to the Court that the soldier was being prosecuted for sexual assault. - -Following the appeal, Blunkett was jailed for two years. - -Source: The Daily Mail<|endoftext|>Honeywell is moving employees, cutting more than 1,300 positions and closing several manufacturing facilities in Michigan and Louisiana. - -The U.S. company is shutting down and consolidating its Honeywell manufacturing and engineering facilities in Michigan, including plant in Holland Township, according to a news release. - -The announcement was effective immediately and workers are being notified by March 30, company officials said in a joint statement.

All of a sudden, a picture of a man who, for a significant amount of time, had a loaf of bread in both hands while sitting on a sidewalk while doing absolutely nothing popped up on the wall of my mind. The story of Bread Man would come to be, for me, a metaphor for the times when I experienced the growing pains of growing up. For me, that meant that I would always be hungry, at some point or another in my life. And I guess I also took Bread Man's bread as inspiration for why I wanted to become a chef. - - -The funny thing, however, is that I know exactly which store I bought my loaf of bread from. I bought it on the day that I graduated from high school. I remember that day distinctly due to the fact that my mother had put a heavy lid on all the pots that were boiling. I had a hard enough time waiting for my lunch that my mother was worried I might choke to death that day. Of course, she was worried too but I had to make sure that the lunch was all ready. The thought of my mother having a hard time bringing the lunch over to her room that day did nothing to deter me from staying away from the cafeteria that day. It was an early memory I kept until the day she passed away. - - -I didn't become a professional chef until the next year because then I was just too busy and too hungry to sit at home and cook for myself. I also have a vague recollection that some of my senior classmates were cooking for that year. They all seemed to be in college and I'm pretty sure that my roommate, who has just since graduated, was a senior on his first trip to culinary school. I certainly never considered it, but if I did I'm pretty sure I would have been a very bad cook. - - -At no point did I ever feel like I was missing out on anything by being enrolled at college. I wasn't missing any classes because I was eating less during the school day and that probably resulted in being late to classes. I did feel like I had something to learn. I didn't feel like I was missing anything at the beginning because I was working so many shifts that I had enough hours in the day to get through college. I also enjoyed the classes I took in the school, even -======================================== SAMPLE 250 ======================================== -The official Facebook page for the television anime adaptation of Kazumi Fujita and Hirogi Yoshida 's Shōyō Ninpoushin' manga announced on Saturday that Junji Kō and Hiroyuki Tsubasa will play the series' two main characters, Shinobu and Yukiteru, respectively.

Shogakukan published the 13th compiled book volume in Japan on January 10, and Viz Media is publishing the manga in English, with the release date originally set for 2016. - -The manga's story takes place in an alternate history in China in 300 A.D., in the Tang Dynasty. A century after the death of a powerful emperor, an old man and an adolescent woman stumble upon a manuscript describing a legend of gods and demons who protect humankind. They decide to go to the ancient city of Jin to ask the gods for help. However, when they arrive, the young woman is abducted by a mysterious stranger. The mysterious stranger gives the old man a magical book with three magic seals that can open any door. - -Fujita launched the manga in Shogakukan 's Weekly Shōnen Sunday magazine in 2013, and Shogakukan will publish the 16th compiled volume on January 9.

There is no statistical evidence to conclude that human activity has had a significant impact on global temperature to the best of our knowledge. - -What's more, a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) says that humans have "significantly changed mean global temperatures". - -That report said the increase in temperature since the Industrial Revolution "has been very large". This means that, with the possible exception of the last 15 years, it has been in an upward trending direction. - -The second part doesn't matter. However, the first part makes clear that researchers have found no statistical association between an increase in the temperature and the total number of researchers worldwide. - -The authors make clear that their results do not dispute the concept of AGW but rather they simply don't prove a cause-effect relationship. This is a scientific point worth considering. I'll explain that in more detail below. - -The authors state that, in the last decade, the total number of researchers in the field of climate has increased by approximately 5 per cent year-on-year. Their conclusion is that, "in contrast to the observed increase of the total number of global researchers, the increase of the number of experts is not detected to be consistent in their scientific opinion of the anthropogenic origin of global warming." - -Their study does not prove a cause-effect relationship and in fact, according to a study by The Guardian, the increase in climate researcher is not an increase in the amount of research taking place at all. - -The Guardian article also says: - -A US study published on Monday found that scientists were doing more to tackle global warming than they were before the year 2000. The authors of the study, led by Anthony Leiserowitz of the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication at Yale, found that global efforts to control greenhouse gases were more intensive than they had ever been in the past 20 years. - -The article also says that: - -The scientists also found that the average number of papers published in the field of climate change is up for the first time in many years. It also found that the global average increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels is on a downward trajectory following a slight increase in 2013. - -Here's some other points about their study: - -The study used data for the period -======================================== SAMPLE 251 ======================================== -DETROIT, MI - A woman was shot in the stomach early Wednesday morning during a robbery at a west side apartment complex. - -The 27-year-old woman was shot in the stomach around 1 a.m. in the parking lot of the River Pointe apartment complex near the intersection of Canfield and Van Dyke around 31st Street and Van Ness, according to Detroit Police. - -She was taken to Detroit Receiving hospital but is expected to survive, police said. - -The suspect or suspects were seen running south on Van Dyke Avenue headed towards Canfield, and police believe they are traveling west on Canfield Avenue toward Grand Circus Park. - - -The attack occurred at the same intersection where a 23-year-old man was shot and wounded in a shooting a week ago.

In light of this call, I've asked Gun Policy USA Executive Director Wayne LaPierre to share his thoughts on the gun lobby. - -Wayne La Pierre - -I came into gun policy at age 19, when I was a student at Princeton University. I was on campus when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was murdered. I learned that Dr. King's dream for a world without violence had been achieved in his lifetime. - -So, on the campus I joined my classmates in a silent vigil. A month later I volunteered for a gun control group that met at the Capitol of my home state. On that day, I was handed a packet of literature that said I was "a criminal." I took it to my dorm room, where it remained for the next 10 years, unread. I could not understand the logic and reason behind it then. - -In 1989 I was attending the University of Washington Law School when President Ronald Reagan signed the infamous Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act. I was working on a case that would put a federal constitutional challenge to the law before the US Supreme Court, which was the most important one of the decade. Before we could get back to the case however, the Brady Act was declared unconstitutional by the US Supreme Court, which, in a 5-4 decision, confirmed that "gun control" was a federal crime. - -Since then I have watched as many cities and states, like Boston, Boston and Boston and New York City, have instituted universal background checks as a check against gun violence. I have seen the effectiveness of gun safety education. I have seen how gun violence destroys a family, how it is the greatest single killer of men under 30. I have watched as cities, state, and federal governments across our nation have passed laws to make our neighborhoods safer. - -I am also grateful for efforts by groups like CeaseFire, Gun Owners of America, and Moms Demand Action to protect and defend our right to keep and bear our firearms. - -In my travels and meetings, I have found that every gun lobby and its members has one thing in common: Fear of gun violence. Many of these groups would rather have a black man, a Muslim woman, or a young parent killed than be seen doing anything that supports civil liberties, or which would require them to take the responsibility for their failure to protect their own kids. - -In the last week of January, one victim of gun violence was killed in my home state of Washington by his brother while the two were trying to take their own lives. My wife and children are at home with nothing more than a few memories of our wonderful brother as they grieve their loss. The media has moved on as well, but the memories remain. - -The only thing I ask of people is this: The gun lobbyists are afraid they might lose their tax exempt status, their ability to speak at the state or national levels, their ability to donate freely to your campaign. The gun lobbyists want control but that is another conversation for another day. - -Rather than focusing on all the guns in America, the goal should be to protect our children, our neighbors, and ourselves. The next time you see a story about an unarmed young person shot by police, ask: Who are they? Why isn't gun violence the dominant topic? Why is it that the National Rifle Association is willing to spend hundreds of millions of dollars in a futile attempt to influence an election? - -My friend and colleague, Tom Smith, a former Washington State Representative, put it well. "The gun lobby -======================================== SAMPLE 252 ======================================== -In 2010, an average of 1,000 new residents would move to Vancouver in one year, but this year's average of 1,100 will make it more than 6,000, a 50% increase. This is the strongest year for migration to any Canadian city in the 10 year time period between 2002 and 2012. - -While many Canadians will not move into a Toronto apartment to live in Vancouver, there are enough to add to the city's housing capacity. That is why a Toronto-bound household could have a family of 4 and still be able to easily fit three other people into an average Toronto housing budget. If the average household size (with two adults and two children) were doubled, that household could comfortably live in almost all of Toronto's housing stock, or more than half of the current Toronto housing stock including all of the condos, townhomes, and laneway houses. If we used the average household size, instead, in a Vancouver household, it would only need to house two people, not more than a third of Toronto households, in order to comfortably buy a house in Toronto. - -Since only the demand can determine the rate of housing production, how could Toronto house the demand for people with a higher cost to support their families with a more affordable housing supply? - -The answer lies in adding an additional 40,000 to 55,000 to GTA's housing inventory. - -To calculate Toronto's housing supply, one needs to consider three factors: the percentage of households living in subsidized or low-income housing, the percentage of census residents living in single-detached homes, and the percentage living in condos and townhomes. When these three variables are added, the total number of housing units in Toronto (combined with the number of new and existing properties) is equal to the number of households. Therefore, the total supply of housing in Toronto is equal to the number of households that live in subsidized and low-income housing. - -While the overall number of housing units is equal to the number of households, housing supply in Toronto is only equal to the share of housing units provided to households with lower income than the median. In reality, the proportion of Toronto households with lower income than median is closer to half. In 2010, almost 20% of Toronto households lived in subsidized condos and townhomes, but only about 12-13% of the income in these units was received through social assistance or low-income housing rents. By contrast, 30% percent of Toronto households had incomes of $30,000 or less. For these two reasons, it is clear that the supply of housing in Toronto should have a higher level of demand to overcome any demand for affordable homes. In this respect, the increase in the demand for housing in Vancouver is a net positive for Canada rather than a deficit or surplus. - -The Toronto census reveals another important factor for housing supply. Of the 469,450 people in Toronto in 2011, 49% were households headed by someone 65 years of age or older, 21% by someone between the ages of 35-44, and 22% by someone between the ages of 15-24. With higher demand for housing in Toronto, housing supply should be increased to meet this higher demand. By having more affordable housing in Toronto, the demand to live in Toronto will be limited to people in those ages 45-54, those 55 and above, and those 18-24. - -This will create a stronger financial incentive for governments to provide public housing for Toronto residents in order to preserve existing public housing supply. While it is unlikely that most Canadians will be interested in moving to Toronto to live with their families and contribute to the cost of public housing, the financial benefits associated with public housing can offset the increased housing costs associated with moving. - -Toronto's housing needs were not made any more obvious by Toronto Mayor Ford and his plan to replace the affordable housing programs with private rental options. In fact, it is now clear that Ford was the greatest obstacle preventing public or affordable public housing from being developed in Toronto. While Toronto city council considered proposals to create affordable public housing in Scarborough and North York, Ford refused to support any of these alternatives. Instead he made it clear that he wanted public housing to be replaced with affordable rental housing. This has led to questions in Toronto whether Ford's real motives for using public housing as a political tool was to drive up the cost of public housing to keep the public housing in place. - -The answer is, no it does not. Instead, this is a clever move to increase property tax revenue by increasing tax base in favour of private rental. With all other factors equal, if the same percentage of the tax base is spent on public housing as on public rental housing, public housing will produce lower revenue compared to public rental housing. - -In order to ensure that this tax revenue generated from private rental does not benefit the wealthiest individuals in our society, a portion of this revenue will be diverted to funding public rental assistance. If private rental increases by 50%, then it will be able to offset the lost revenue -======================================== SAMPLE 253 ======================================== -Citizens, - -We want to help you learn, in the best way possible, how your political views may be reflected in your DNA. We are currently compiling data from hundreds of thousands of DNA sequences to identify political and ideological preferences and then we're working on getting this done. - -With that said, we recognize that the study of political beliefs could be a very challenging one for scientists; you may not have all the answers, but we invite you to join our community and participate in our effort to get to the bottom of political differences in the gene pool. - -All you have to do is sign up on our study website and we'll start sending out surveys to members of the Canadian population in the coming months. We'll be sending these out over the next few weeks and months to thousands and thousands of citizens (sorry folks in the U.S.!) from various parts of the country; we want to gather as much data as possible - but we need your help! - -We will be using a genetic method called Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to do this study. We think the most common questions people have are: - -Are there differences in political ideology amongst people with and without certain genes? - -How much do gene variants like the rs11605579 gene variation have to do with political beliefs? - -Are certain gene variants like the rs11605579 gene variation important? - -Are the results of PCA useful? - -You'll note in the questionnaire that we ask you to fill out your political beliefs (your level of agreement with a variety of claims) as one of six possible answers. In addition to the other things we're asking you, your opinion concerning the genetics of political ideology is important to us, because there are many ways people's genes might modify their political attitudes. PCA can be used to get an answer to these types of questions. - -A recent paper by Dinesh Kumar and his colleagues using this type of approach in a large-scale survey in India found that political ideology differs significantly in relation to variation in a particular gene variant. Their study of thousands of people across three large Indian states (and across several languages) found that while genetic variation between people is likely to explain a certain amount of variance within politics, the results vary substantially if genes are studied in more detail. - -In an earlier report, we discussed the possible genetic basis of political ideology, and we talked about our initial attempts to find answers using PCA (see our blog - "Political Beliefs Are Highly Heritable"). We're hoping to use your PCA results to help us further understand the politics of Ontario and Canada. - -Thank you for taking a few minutes to respond to this study. With your help we still believe the study will result in new, important insights. For more information, please see this post from Prof. David Healy at the University of Oxford. Your responses will help us to make this study better. Thank you again.<|endoftext|>Habitat A large predatory bird that preys on large insects such as beetles and scorpions. Also known as the pheasant, pheasants make quiet, low-pitched grunts while searching for prey or flying low. They sometimes are seen hunting in flocks with other birds. Females tend to be larger in size than males and are brown to brown in color; males are sometimes orange in color or more often have bright red or orange heads. - -Reproduction Females pair for life and produce one to three egg sacs per year. Both parents take care of the chicks and feed them with the same diet that they get in the nest. - -Conservation About half of the pheasant population that exists today was hunted almost completely to extinction 50 years ago. Despite these pressures, the pheasant was able to recover. Today, only 4,000 of the species are known to be threatened around the world. With just a few hundred remaining, a small number can have large effects on local ecosystems, and the species is still a threat to agriculture and human development throughout much of its range.<|endoftext|>For any news or news-related discussion (not a donation or sponsorship request per se as it doesn't fit into the sidebar), I have a page on the forums where I'll put all of that.

It wasn't the only sports car developed by Ford at the time since their SVT division was heavily engaged in trying to sell them. The MX-5 was a very good car but didn't sell well and the T1600 concept was a pretty interesting idea but didn't succeed at Ford. - -There was also a Mazda Miata concept made in conjunction with Chevrolet, but that was more of an incremental improvement to a model already in production. It didn't have the weight savings to compete with the competition. In terms of quality, Mazda was on par with American sports cars but Ford wasn't making cars that were good enough to catch and pass on price and features. What's interesting is that the Miata was actually an effort to sell more Mustang's than it was an effort to beat the Corvette. - - -A year after Miata's conception, Corvette was introduced to both the American car makers but Ford was the first to bring a sports car to the US market. The original Miata was actually offered to a number of buyers by Ford dealers so it sold well before the Corvette was even in production. What was really important isn't that the Miata hit the market earlier but whether or not it was good enough. Not to be relegated to a car just for sport but for what it was made for. - -Ford was selling Fords all-around and the small Miata was no match for a small Camaro, a small V8 Mustang or a big 4 cylinder Dodge. It was basically a small pony car. The Miata wasn't a bad car for a small car (and the original Miata is even still available in small trim) but it wasn't even the small car to beat. You could point to the original Miata and tell a number of car makers they were late to the game but in the end the Corvette was the first true sports car in the USA. It was the last of the '67-69 models to use steel in the body panels and I'd argue it's the better looking of the three. - -The rest of the small car segment didn't hit until the mid 90's when Dodge came out with the Charger and Toyota came out with the Corolla. Each came with a large engine and some added features that put them on par with the big car competition. Even the small hatchback segment started with the Celica and the Acura TL started out as a small hatch. - -The Corvette is an iconic sports car and it continues to be with a following that continues to grow after 20 years. But the Miata was actually good enough that it was a worthy competitor in the sporty segment. It's interesting to look at it from another perspective and realize that it was actually on a par with the Mustang and not the other way around. The Mustang sold like hot cakes but at the time it was a much bigger financial and financial engineering exercise to make a sporty sports car. With the Miata there was always a market for the sports car and it's interesting that Ford had a lot of success with it (especially in the mid 80's) and that the Miata actually had a number of successful models on the market from the 50's through the 90's. - - -If you want to learn more and see the Miata in action then you can check out our live Miata video shoot from this year's Monterey Car Week. It's the best Miata experience anyone can have and you'll be able to see the cars in action just as though you were driving one.<|endoftext|>On Tuesday night as Donald Trump was leaving Mar-a-Lago to join the presidential inaugural parade in Washington, his limousine driver, "Bobby," was accused by an anonymous source of "throwing a tantrum" inside. - -The anonymous passenger says Bobby and Donald drove around the entire inaugural ceremony and were "throwing things at people." - -"Donald started throwing things around the limo, hitting things, yelling at people," a source told The Daily Beast.

The U.S. military is currently engaged in several ongoing conflicts abroad (Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, Somalia, etc.) that it clearly doesn't need any more troops for. - -The first, however, began in 2001 and is still going. We've also been fighting a war (which began in 2001) against a group of Islamic militants in Syria called ISIS. That's the latest one. - -The Department of Defense announced last year its "enduring fight" for the Afghanistan war. - -It is a war the Afghan military no longer wants, and they are beginning to leave their bases. Some Afghans have told reporters that they will start fighting other Afghans in retaliation. So we have still another war going. - -The U.S. has troops in Iraq, and continues to support them and continue to wage a war there. But in the last year it seems clear that Iraq is no longer a war we're even going to win. It's clearly losing. - -What's the point? - -2. The Department of Defense is currently engaged in several ongoing operations for which it clearly doesn't need soldiers. - -The Navy conducts "counter terrorism" operations in a number of places, mainly in the seas around the world. This does not need to be done in order to keep America safe. (Though it might be if it actually helped, like when the Navy was going after Somali pirates, or when it was supporting our mission in Yemen.) - -The Air Force is also engaged in "counter terrorism" in a substantial number of locations around the world. It also doesn't need new troops to conduct it. It does want new planes, though, and some new planes would be welcomed: - -This year, we will purchase an additional F-35 Joint Strike Fighter aircraft. … As we've said before, our F-35 is the best plane for the job in theater and will play an integral role in our future campaigns, such as the Afghanistan mission. - -We just recently gave the new $2.85 billion in military aid to Egypt a "green light." How many more countries are we going to give that green light to? - -I don't think that America should be using its troops for anything, anywhere. These are obviously war missions. They don't need troops to help them achieve their goals. - -3. The Department of Defense wants to spend more on "war" than it would like: - -So, we have some ongoing conflicts that we're in that we clearly do not need more members of the military to help keep America safe. But we're also spending money to train and equip our foreign allies to fight those wars on our behalf. And when it comes to those conflicts, Americans don't really enjoy "going to war." They enjoy keeping us safe, or at the very least, keeping us out of harm's way. … We must take the opportunity that these missions present to refocus our military on real threats in order to safeguard our national security. - -But there's a catch. The war America actually wants does not require an expansion of its military force to win it. It only needs to remain strong and vital, and it still doesn't need any new people to fight it. So what's the point? - -Also, spending more on "war" would make Americans more frightened about fighting the wars. For example, spending more on the "war on terrorism" would probably lead us to spend more training Americans to go fight for it. (Which was the point of the War on Terror, right?) Then the terror attacks of 9/11 would lead to a new "war on terror" that Americans really wanted all over again, which would mean a lot more fighting, and it would mean more fear. - -4. The US government wants more money for "national security" initiatives instead of for the military. - -The Department of Defense has increased the amount it spends on "national security" initiatives. This is because it needs more money to fight the wars America now wants to get out of. But what you might not know is that they've also increased the amount spent on what they call "force protection", the rest of which is just more police work, more prisons, more welfare, and so on. For more on the US's expanding security state, see this, this, this, this, and this. - -5.

"The hard part was trying to get people to accept it without the help of Democrats, Republicans, and independents. I feel good about Obamacare now in its progress." - -Hillary Clinton is not currently a public figure, although her campaign is working on a book. Clinton also said he is ready to take on sexism, and in the spirit of equality, he said he doesn't want a woman president. - -This isn't just in response to the Republican nominee Donald Trump.

While there, he said he was present when delegates unanimously adopted a motion calling for all member-nations "to develop, implement and monitor a safe, well-resourced, sustainable no-kill sanctuary in collaboration with the IUCN to ensure extinction-free survival of the white rhino by 2030 and rhino and tiger respectively". - -He said he was "very pleased to see" the IUCN call for no-kill sanctuaries, and that he considered the South African proposal to be "unique and significant". - -After the outcome of the 2012 conference, Fitzpatrick decided to "re-imagine a no-kill sanctuary". "Our ultimate goal is to be able to achieve extinction-free survival of the rhinoceros, by 2024," he told HuffPost SA in an interview last Sunday. - -He said that the SWAT no-kill sanctuary would be run by the South African National Parks and Wildlife Service (SanParks). It was his belief that only a no-kill sanctuary, he noted, "could sustain and support the rhinoceros and rhino horn markets". - -"We're working hard with them towards this goal," he told HuffPost SA. Fitzpatrick said SanParks was "working on a number of fronts", including working with the Department of Environmental Affairs to develop sustainable management plans for the rhinos it held in captivity. "They already have rhinos in zoos, but it's a limited number," he noted. - -Meanwhile, the South African government has been actively working with the International Union for -======================================== SAMPLE 259 ======================================== -The idea is, to go out with a bang and, you know, "let it rain". Or not. It can be just about anything but you're going to be on your own if you have a date. Also, the girl needs to be someone from a college or university, preferably a single student. This is important because this is the type of person who'll be a little, what's the term? "Dude" or "girl" or something, that girl who does not know how to dress, you know, the college girl who can't buy more than two outfits to wear this year. She needs to be a total dork. I mean come on. - -You see, dating is just about being cute and not giving a fuck. There you go. Now maybe the girl's personality, her social skills and her looks or something, that can be interesting. I mean that's good stuff to have to talk to the girl but still, the main thing with dating is to make yourself look attractive, even by looking like some dork who's only thinking about how hot he is. That's all that matters. I mean maybe he can be a smartass but he can't have a beautiful, smartass-ish girlfriend, right? That's why it's important not to take her too seriously. That's why you can't go out with a girl too hard or too quickly (which is good for someone who's trying to get into a relationship like a "girlfriend"), but you still have to let her get to know you so she understands you better. - -You can tell when someone says, "I'm just looking out my window to have a nice, peaceful moment for the night" and you know what that means to her? That's she's got it bad. She's afraid she's going to lose you and you're scared that you're going to lose her. It gets very confusing. - -I know there are a few other rules but those I'll have to wait to address at another time. For now, here it is. Remember, if you are serious, then it must be serious, right? Don't just go out and party, even if you're in a really good mood. If you can't be serious, you're just being shallow.<|endoftext|>When I talk about "the state of science," I start at the beginning. That gives me, at least, a solid starting point to work with. - -In the mid-1980s I was working as a biochemist at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), and there was a lot of activity at the time in the cancer research arena. - -One of the questions being asked was whether or not people on chemotherapy had an increased risk of getting glioblastoma. This was an aggressive cancer with very little treatment options, and its prognosis was dismal even for those patients who survived for several years. This made us wonder how these patients would do if they received no treatment for the rest of their lives. - -We began to do a bunch of experiments and found that patients who initially showed great benefit with chemotherapy had, well, not much longer to live anyway (in the normal range), as did patients who experienced some benefit while on chemotherapy for several years. The patients who survived the most were those who had received "timely" adjuvant treatments, including low doses of radiation. In other words, these trials revealed that a cancer patient's outlook depended largely on the kind of treatment he or she received. - -Why is this important? Because, contrary to what you might think about science, it's not at all clear that anything is certain. - -I mean, if you were looking for something to work on — say, the structure of DNA — might you say, "Oh, that's going to be easy: just run up to someone who's doing that and tell them that's the end of the matter?" Of course not! You need to conduct experiments, and get lots of people on board, and get them actually willing to study the question. - -What we've discovered, in a nutshell, is that it's extremely difficult to predict what a drug or treatment will do for a cancer patient. This fact applies to all scientific subjects, whether it's astronomy, or statistics, or quantum mechanics, or any other field of study. - -It's not that drugs and treatments are guaranteed to work, but the probability of an outcome seems to depend on many things, including how well a drug (or treatment) is tested and the characteristics of the patient or study group. - -In science as in life, you'll never get 100% accurate results. You can find some patterns, but the chances of finding something in the data that makes sense are very low. - -So, there's some wisdom to the old joke: "Science gives confidence; religion gives superstition."<|endoftext|>1 #1 jose 0 Frags – + The most beautiful place on planet earth!

(Reporting by Stephen Brown)<|endoftext|>The first time I ever heard about St. Jude Children's Research Hospital was when my son was diagnosed with leukemia at 6 months old. The hospital saved my son's life, but they also became his biggest advocates. The organization they founded was dedicated to finding cures for childhood leukemia through research and education; they raised a record, nearly $300 million in the organization's 15-year history. - -advertisement - -advertisement - -But one issue that has remained in the forefront for many years has been the treatment of these infants, who have a 90% relapse rate when they leave the hospital. Some doctors believe treatment with chemotherapy can potentially reverse the leukemia. In a country where many expect to get cancer, these are difficult lessons to learn in a hospital setting. St Jude currently treats 10,000 children each month with the disease. And it is not unusual to see children with the same mutation, which is called B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Children typically experience a remission after a treatment cycle, but at least a handful always relapse to leukemia. They don't necessarily feel different or any different when they leave the hospital. And that's what makes the research effort so critical. Children typically feel their best when they are surrounded by each other, even if it's through a hospital setting. "When you think of children, you almost always imagine them alone," says Linda Rosenbluth, chief medical officer at St. Jude. It is only in St. Jude that kids can be together, in the same room, with their doctors, nurses, and volunteers. These children live in foster homes, and those they are brought into hospitals have a different routine than the kids who go home alone. To be a team is not easy for children, who typically don't grow up with the same social ties as their peers and are often not raised in an environment that celebrates their uniqueness. "The whole culture of pediatric cancer treatment has shifted over the last 10 years," Rosenbluth says. "What a lot of schools and hospitals focus on is safety and treatment protocols, rather than what kind of school or family they come from. They may not have a large social network, but they have a group of like-minded peers who are very important to their identity." For kids with B-cell ALL, that peer group is one that grows organically: the same patients, most often those who look like you or your family. The people who work in the pediatric cancer program are the kind of people parents dream of having in their lives.

It kicks off in Ottawa on Sept. 12. - -Meanwhile, Cordell pointed out that the Cup is the highest prize in Canadian hockey, as it does not make the Olympic team. - -He said he is optimistic about the Cup's return to Canada, despite the fact that it has only been staged a handful of times since the late 1980s with Canada's best team making it to the final round of the tournament eight times in the past 13 tournaments. - -The final is expected to involve more than 30 of Canada's top players from junior hockey, NHL and minor pro teams. - -Cordell added that he believes the NHL is finally beginning to get serious about trying to grow the sport in North America, after years of trying to woo hockey stars to join its national team — mainly after the 2004 Olympics — only to have them stay loyal to Europe. - -He said that since the World Cup of Hockey is only six months away, the league will begin taking meetings shortly to set up plans for this year's tournament, with many of its coaches, players and executives already in the United States preparing for training camp. - -Cordell also said he believes Canadians will do a better job in the tournament than at the world juniors, when it has featured no Canadian team since 2003. - -While the prospect of Canadians being able to win the World Cup should motivate Canadian players, Cordell acknowledged that it might not help their long-term prospects playing at the Olympics. - -That may seem a strange sentiment in a country that has never failed in the Olympics — though Canadians did earn bronze at the first world junior tournament in 1978, after being eliminated by the Soviets — but Cordell argues that in the event of a serious disaster during the tournament, it would be devastating to all the players. - -"To have your best guys playing the national game and then, you know, we're going to a catastrophe and we're going to lose to Russia, it's very sad," he said. - -"And what's in it for them?

I'm on the team.

(Photo: Reuters -======================================== SAMPLE 262 ======================================== -The Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments in two major cases against net neutrality on August 2. Both are the latest in a long history of challenges to broadband internet access, one of the most important features of the internet. - -While many people support strong net neutrality rules, few in the telecom and cable industries are arguing publicly that FCC rules shouldn't be imposed. As a result, the next major fight on net neutrality could end up being one of the largest public relations battles in recent years. - -It all comes down to a simple question -- is it a violation of net neutrality rules or not? The answer depends on the answer to that question -- and in turn how deeply you believe in the importance of net neutrality rules. - -There is an old adage -- you cannot break the law, until you break the internet. That applies to the internet, net neutrality, and the telecom industry. In the case of net neutrality, the law was passed by Congress in 1934 -- before the internet even had a name. It was called the Communications Act, and it is very clear. When FCC rules are imposed on telcos they are illegal -- because they are not the ones who set up the pipes connecting internet to end users. It is up the telcos to build that infrastructure. - -The internet was passed on cable from the government in the 1960s, and the early cables were not even powered by electricity. The telcos built them themselves, and maintained them for 30 years. As the internet expanded and more Americans started using it, the telcos found themselves in a position where they had to decide what would become of the internet -- would they be allowed to restrict access to it to subscribers who agreed to pay money? - -Many of us know that the answer to that question is no. In the early days of the internet, the telcos were prohibited from doing this, and they have never done it. And it is that ban that we are fighting to overturn today. - -Since this is a case that will ultimately end up in the Supreme Court, it is worth reminding people that much of what we know today about net neutrality was not possible until 2011. - -This brings us to 2011. In early 2011, a group of tech companies, including Google, Facebook, Netflix, Twitter, Reddit, Kickstarter and Etsy joined forces to form the Internet Association. The intent of the association was to bring more voices into the decision making process and help ensure that these voices were listened to. - -The reason this issue is important? In early 2011 there was no such thing as net neutrality. - -The question of the day was whether broadband carriers had the right to make the internet inaccessible to some users and enable the full internet to be enjoyed to every Internet user. The answer to that question was no -- until the Internet Association was formed. - -But that doesn't mean we should go down the path of banning or restricting broadband access. That has the opposite effect. - -As we've seen by the recent fight at the FCC over "Title II," some members of Congress want to make a political issue out of Internet access. Rather than allowing companies like Google and the Internet Association to offer their services, they want to restrict them, essentially making it a utility like cable or phone. The reason we need strong net neutrality is so these decisions do not become "political issues." And in the case of ISP rules, there are already more than enough barriers placed in place to force companies to operate like utilities. - -The internet is made up of companies that connect individual users into a global network -- companies like Tumblr, Netflix and the Internet Association. Those companies operate on the strength of their ability to attract users and drive traffic to their websites. So the net neutrality battle at the FCC isn't simply about these three specific companies. Rather, these decisions affect much of the online world. It affects the business models of many other businesses as well, because these decisions affect the ability of ISPs to provide the services companies require. - -When the FCC passed its rules prohibiting ISPs from blocking traffic from particular sites or applications or charging content companies for priority access to consumers, the companies that own and operate the networks were worried. The companies argued that these rules would cause them to lose revenues unless they had the ability in some way to influence the FCC's decisions. A few companies have already made it clear that they would be open to taking this route -- with Google, Facebook, Netflix and the rest of the Internet Association in support of a regulatory approach that would allow them to operate as commercial entities. - -In terms of net neutrality itself, the Internet Association believes that broadband providers should be able to create an Internet that is open, competitive, and free from discrimination. The key question is whether or not it would violate the 1934 Communications Act to do so. - -When people say "neutrality," they are thinking about a standard that allows any company in the world to compete to offer the internet to their customers. But that's actually not what we have today. - -Our current system allows a -======================================== SAMPLE 263 ======================================== -SUMMARY PROPOSALS - -SUBMISSION DEADLINES: - -Proposal deadline for each section for which funds have been reserved is Friday, January 6, 2017.

I thought this pop would look nice next to my other Pop Pop figures. Not so much. It just looks like a normal Wonder Woman and that is really disappointing because I wanted a good looking decoy of this pop instead of just a regular figure. Even with that bad paint, it still looks really good. My only complaint is that the red headband is not painted completely. - -Rated 5 out of 5 by SassyCharm from Awesome I bought two.

It's believed that he eventually made his way back to Moscow. However, there's been no indication that he was ever caught there. - -"This is really, really, really unusual," said Joseph Menn, a senior researcher at the U.S. Department of State in Washington. "It's the only one ... I know of where I can confidently say ... he had no presence at Moscow airport before arriving back in the United States." [Spies of the Cold War: Secret Agents Revealed] - -A secret birth in a safe house - -U.S. intelligence officials believe Mikhail Gurov was born in 1959 as Boris Volf. This was a highly unusual birth date — Volf was just 15 days old when his mother gave birth. But even more unusual, the United States believes the baby was given up before Volf was born. - -The Russian government and many former KGB agents, however, disagree that the baby was abandoned. According to documents from U.S. intelligence documents, the baby was taken in by the KGB in 1958, and raised in the St. Petersburg, Russia, office where he later became a Soviet agent. - -A secret birth in a safe house The Soviet Union would not confirm the CIA's findings, but several former KGB officers offered another explanation about Gurov's parentage. According to these documents, the baby had to be abandoned by his family because they feared for his life if they told what they knew about his upbringing. - -After returning to the United States, the baby was adopted by a Russian family. In the family registry, his identity was listed as Boris Volf, or Mikhail Gurov, meaning that the KGB knew the child's mother. - -It may not have been a secret all along. - -"That [KGB] probably knew something was up when [the KGB] got to us that they were able to track down this little Russian," Menn told LiveScience. - -The baby's secret - -For decades after his family's arrival in the United States, the KGB and Volf kept the secret that the young boy was a Soviet spy. - -In the 1970s, while working for a spy ring in Texas, the KGB learned about Gurov's secret. The spy ring was a Russian intelligence network operating in the United States at the time. According to Menn and other experts, an American scientist working with the spy ring, V.V. Chechik, was able to trace the KGB to the CIA's headquarters in Langley, Va. - -Chechik informed the CIA of the boy's parentage. - -During the 1970s, KGB and Gurov kept the secret that the U.S.-born teenager was a Soviet spy The KGB sent a message to Volf informing him that his mother had been in the hospital shortly after giving birth to baby Ivan - -The KGB sent a message to Volf alerting him that his mother had been in a hospital before giving birth to baby Ivan. - -The KGB would periodically send the message to the girl that was supposed to be his mother, letting her know that the KGB wanted to speak with her and her young, foreign-born son. - -Eventually, the KGB even sent the message directly to the young spy's mother. [See photos of a KGB spy's child born in the United States] - -"The KGB was very specific and wanted to get Volf's mother," Menn told LiveScience. "It was very clear that this girl was going to have a much bigger role in this story." - -The young spy's mother later told U.S. intelligence officials that she saw her son on the cover of a Soviet propaganda magazine called People's Friendship. She said she was not shocked to see the KGB operatives, but was "shocked by the fact that they were trying to get her son." - -KGB agents took their message to a former KGB spy, Volf and his girlfriend, with their message being passed through another KGB operative, Vladimir Kuznetsov. In 1970, Volf and his girlfriend visited Chechik at the KGB's office in Virginia. According to the American spy's memoirs, "Boris and Me," he told Volf -======================================== SAMPLE 266 ======================================== -When you think of the top-rated fantasy hockey players in fantasy hockey, you'll certainly have some names that come to mind. I mean, guys like Sidney Crosby or Alex Ovechkin. But where do the rest of the players rank? Today, I wanted to take a look at the top 10 fantasy hockey players in ESPN's ESPN standard fantasy draft (or ESPN standard 14 percent draft pool).

Last year, the NFL's viewership slipped 1% to a 1.35 rating on NBC and a 2.01 rating on CBS during primetime (down from 1.37 and 2.06). The NFL has been hit hard, and not just because the NFL is getting less money (which is what most media analysts attribute the declines to). Most viewers are turning off the NFL because of off-field issues and a high-profile concussion scandal. But the good news, according to the SportsBusiness Daily, is that the NFL continues to improve in TV ratings (thanks to a resurgence of football on ESPN), digital viewership, and merchandise sales. - -The positive news for the NFL shouldn't be surprising: - -"While NFL ratings were off significantly from a year ago, the league's overall digital audience was up 17% year-to-year for ESPN and up 4% for CBS—marking a significant growth in digital viewership of the league overall," reads a story titled "NFL Digital Brings It All Together," which appears at SBD. "Of course, a large portion of these viewers watched an NFL game online, which still has an impact on revenues, especially from advertisers." - -The good news is that the NFL does still have revenue, and it will continue growing, despite the decline in audience this season. NFL players have been able to negotiate the largest average salary among all professional sports leagues, and the league's revenue from broadcasting and ticket sales is continuing to grow at the rate of a few percentage points per year. - -"The most important stat for the league as it heads to negotiations with its national television partners in mid-December is viewership numbers, according to league spokesman Brian McCarthy. He said the league is pleased with the growth in viewership, particularly for ESPN, which showed 7.0 million viewers tuned into the Thanksgiving Day game between the Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions, which was the lowest audience for an NFL game in the history of the broadcast." - -The problem for the NFL, however, is the growing controversy surrounding the NFL and its mishandling of head injuries. The NFL has recently been rocked by two very well-received independent sports-research studies (not to be confused with the infamous Harvard study, which was never peer-reviewed with the intent of generating more media coverage). One study found that the NFL's tackling rules may actually be contributing more to head injuries than any other rule used in football, another concluded that the NFL's "Deflategate" saga is a conspiracy theory. - -The NFL needs to move away from a policy that unfairly and in many cases unintentionally punishes the helmeted hits on quarterbacks who can't help but deliver them. - -[The NFL is not currently penalizing helmets when a quarterback throws a football. The problem with this is that the NFL is also "punishing" quarterbacks when they do avoid those hits.] - -The NFL needs to move away from its concussion -======================================== SAMPLE 268 ======================================== -I've never had much in common with the American president. - -He loves a game and a show, likes to be a celebrity at parties and in the spotlight. His style is a bit stiff. - -He is very good at making people feel he is a man in black leather and who speaks with an American patois, without the accent. - -I've always found him a bit self-obsessed. He's all about a brand and a legacy. And people love him or at least like him. - -He is a great salesman, for the record. - -It's a difficult line to walk. - -But I do have respect for the American president. - -And for someone who seems less than self-possessed — more arrogant than anything — at times, he's one of the best salesman. - -So it's a challenge: Do I do a deal for him, or not? My gut tells me — because he's a good guy — I have to do it. It's not because I'm going to give the president any favours, it's because on a personal level I'm friends with his daughter. And he's got a very good sense of humour. That can only lead to good things. - -I was also worried because there was a lot of talk on TV of him doing deals for me. - -Well, they have got me confused — a lot of times. And what I mean by that is that he does me deals. - -He wants to buy his own house. He wants to build buildings. He likes hotels — for him. - -I don't see him as having a great business acumen. Like the other guy in the Trump International, he makes a deal or doesn't make a deal. - -And one of the problems is that it is hard to understand the Trump International. When I got there, I was told that the hotel was doing great — the people liked the hotel. That it was up to par. - -And then I would visit there, and it was completely different. - -Here's how the hotel looked. Then two years later, I was on the street one day with the president of the company, and everyone was saying, "Wow, how did we do? That's a great hotel." And I'm sitting there with the president of a company and he's saying, "We're doing OK. We're doing real well." The same thing happened when the hotel in Dubai opened — in what looked like an awesome location, and there's nothing great about it. The rooms are not as big, the bathrooms are not as nice as those rooms in Doha, the restaurants are not as fancy as those restaurants in the Trump International. And when the president of the company, whose name I don't even recognize — but they have Trump's name on the building — is saying, "We're doing real well," it's hard to understand how I am supposed to believe him, given the facts. - -And in a way, it makes me feel a little bit sorry for the guy, because he's obviously a great salesperson. But he's also been in the private sector, so he's got a tremendous grasp of how it all works. - -So I guess the reason I'm still doing business with him — and we'll have a contract — is that I'm a fan. - -And I will be a fan for a long time. - -Because to me, the president of the United States is a person. He is actually a person, who should be treated by people of all colours, and all ethnicities. - -If you can't be a fan of him, or appreciate him — regardless of what you believe about him — you should at least be understanding of why I am a fan. - -I'm not talking about the president's politics. I really don't like either of them (or both of them). I don't like either of them at all. But I really do admire these two men for the simple reason that they are simply good people and good at what they do. - -I am not the president of the United States, but I am the owner of the Toronto Maple Leafs. And so, no, I am not a Trump fan and I will not be any more of a Trump fan for a long time. - -But Trump still has fans, and I will respect their wishes. For now. - -It's not worth offending him by saying no.<|endoftext|>For over 60 years, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the World Medical Association (WMA) have been working together to bring the best health information possible to people around the world—a goal that is made much more difficult today.

Chris Bosh was sidelined by multiple knee surgeries and the Heat had the fourth-worst 3-point shooting, a result of a lack of shooting. Injuries have held back the Heat too frequently, especially the backcourt, which has been without Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. - -The Heat have lost 10 of their last 13 games to fall out of the Eastern Conference playoff picture, and that lack of consistency and leadership has gotten in the way of Miami's success. - -SIGN UP - -Be the first to know.

SIGN ME UP! - -Miami finished last season with the fifth-worst record in the NBA and the Heat could still miss the playoffs next season if the NBA decides to expand. - -The Heat were expected to improve from last season because two of their starters were back, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. But their best player in Wade, the NBA's top scorer last season, has been on the injured list every single year since 2006, and the team has had to deal with two knee injuries while trying to develop its third point guard this season in Mario Chalmers, who is not quite as consistent as Wade. - -SHARE COPY LINK Miami Heat guard Dion Waiters talks about his recent hamstring injury during Miami Heat media day at American Airlines Arena in Miami. - -The Heat traded for veteran point guard Mario Chalmers from Boston on Jan. 2, hoping it would give them stability. However, the injury bug hasn't stopped there. - -Wade and Bosh are each working on long-term contracts and each were in line to make millions of dollars next season. Wade has been to every NBA Finals and won two championships, and while Bosh has won the championships, the Heat have not. - -Meanwhile, this season's biggest issue was a lack of depth, the lack of any depth at all. The Heat's current depth, including Wade and Bosh, is so bad that it has made winning difficult. - -The Heat have just eight players with at least 50 games played this season. Bosh, the team's leading scorer at 17.3 points per game, is on the injured list for another 10th straight game. Wade has missed the last eight games. - -In addition, Tyler Johnson and Udonis Haslem, two players who played a combined 15 minutes per game, have returned to the Heat, but it's tough to tell how healthy they will be. - -SHARE COPY LINK Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra talks with the media about the team's loss to the Golden State Warriors and the loss of Chris Bosh during the second half of Thursday's game. - -And the depth is also hampered by injuries to players who were expected to be major contributors this season. Chris Andersen and Gerald Green, the two centers, have never played more than 18 minutes per game this season and are both playing injured. - -That means Tyler Johnson and Josh McRoberts, the two frontcourt players the Heat will have to depend on for depth, started all 82 games last season. - -Injuries have a detrimental effect on winning, and the Heat were one of the few teams in the NBA to be without their lead guard or starting point guard at all times this season. - -SHARE COPY LINK Tyler Johnson talks about being "100 percent" healthy in the Heat's win against the Charlotte Hornets on December 21, 2014, at AmericanAirlines Arena. - -The Heat were without Wade for the first 10 games and were without Bosh from March 22 to April 20. They missed their best player and the team's best player for a total of 39 games. - -SHARE COPY LINK Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra talks about their win against the Charlotte Hornets on December 21, 2014, at AmericanAirlines Arena. - -The Heat have not been an elite offensive team with Wade and Bosh at the helm. In fact, since 2008, they were last in the NBA in the field goal percentage department, which includes the three-point field goal percentage that the league has traditionally used to measure a player's shooting. - -Last season, the Heat were 23rd in the NBA after being 27th last season. - -As much as anything else, the Heat's injuries have been a big reason for the disappointing season and why they could miss the playoffs again next year.<|endoftext|>You'll get a chance to chat with J.J.

It suggests it was made in at least six separate US states - though one of those states, Kentucky, told The Verge it doesn't make bars to its own specifications and had nothing to do with Trump's decision. - -The T-Rex test is a scientific process that attempts to simulate a variety of conditions such as heat, pressure and time. The first step is to set up an experiment to simulate the impact of a single 1kg piece of steel. - -If that impact is sufficiently intense, it can cause the steel to fail — or be "overheated". Under the conditions in Kentucky, the tests were conducted using a high strength (90kg) steel bar that was originally manufactured in Tennessee and shipped via rail to a Kentucky steel mill. - -The tests were carried out on an industrial robot. - -According to KSPR 6News, the steel at the center of the order was then dropped from a few hundred metres onto a large scale. - -The T-Rex is a machine that has three wheels that can measure "pinch point" changes in pressure — the point where a load pushes the material apart slightly. This allows engineers to determine just how much force a piece of steel must have in order to cause it to fail. - -The test found that Kentucky steel, though strong under the conditions, could be taken out of service with just a 40kg load, and with a single drop of that force, it would fail. - -The T-Rex is a machine that has three wheels that can measure "pinch point" changes in pressure — the point where a load pushes the material apart slightly. - -A total of 12 samples were tested and they tested at three different places - -It's just one of many similar tests that have been undertaken, suggesting that Trump's order was at least partly based on false assumptions and that the "temperature-stability" of steel is very much in question. - -Trump's executive order temporarily banned entry to the US by citizens of seven Muslim-majority nations. While some legal cases are being heard to challenge the order, many are defending it by saying that it was based on a need to protect Americans from terrorism. - -According to PolitiFact, "Only a handful of courts" have issued rulings over the past several years backing the idea that the ban violates the constitution. - -It's not the first time Trump has been put on the spot over the strength of his products. Earlier this year, he said that Apple products were made in China. That claim was investigated and found to be false when it was shown that they were made in California.<|endoftext|>If you are an experienced woodworker and have been collecting woodchips and woodworking equipment for many years, why bother making one of these amazing wood crafts?

The program, produced by the National Security Archive at George Washington University, The Intercept claims, shows that the U.S. government has relied on a legal process that allows them to kill American citizens on U.S. soil at will with little scrutiny. In an interview with The Huffington Post, one of the people featured in the film, John Kiriakou, says the process has allowed U.S. citizens targeted for assassination to be tortured before being killed. - -"One of the things Americans may not be aware of is that the executive branch has a special legal regime that allows the executive branch to kill American citizens without ever getting a trial, based on this so-called 'credible threat' standard," Kiriakou (pictured above) said. He believes that the government is using terror tactics it learned from Al Qaeda. - -SPONSORED - -"That's the definition of a war crime," he said. - -The Intercept reported that Kiriakou's film, in part, explores how the CIA used what it learned about Osama bin Laden after 9/11 to target people that it thought was a threat to the United States. - -Kiriakou, a former CIA case officer, was sentenced to 30 months in prison for disclosing classified information to journalists, including a "black site" code-named "Salt Pit." - -Although he was never charged with a crime over the classified information, Kiriakou says he believes the CIA should be held accountable. - -"I hope the U.S. government will investigate and hold people accountable who did this. That's what it would be if they didn't get away with it that is why I'm speaking out," Kiriakou said. - -The government, however, maintains that the 'credible threat' program does not authorize targeted killings on U.S. soil. - -In a statement to The Intercept, the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel justified the use of the terrorism-related law known as the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) by arguing that the government needs to protect "the nation from terrorist activity abroad if it knows or reasonably should know" that an individual has been involved in terrorist activities at home. - -While the program is designed to target those responsible for domestic terrorist activity, government officials also use it to spy on American citizens and others believed to be tied to foreign terrorists. - -"The use by US government officials of the national security 'credible threat' framework, which allows US officials to target foreign terrorists who may be traveling abroad but have connections in the United States, as a means of preventing and/or disrupting terrorist attacks within the United States is consistent with US national security interests and the Constitution," a 2007 ruling by the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel explained. - -The U.S. government also used the program under President George W. Bush to detain and torture al-Qaeda suspects (including Anwar Awlaki) without charges or due process. - -Former President Barack Obama used the program without approval. He told a reporter that the program allowed the government to go "after folks who are very dangerous." - -The ACLU notes that when al-Qaeda was at its height, "it posed an imminent threat to the country that did not exist in 2001." - -"The Obama administration has made the assassination of a citizen the cornerstone of its counterterrorism policy, despite this historical omission as well as the clear law prohibiting it," said Anthony D.

Its upper region was filled with jade that looked as if it could easily be melted into powder by the light of the sun. - -The lower region of the mountain was filled with deep blue light as well, and was more suited for cultivators of qi-bearing martial arts rather than others. - -The jade patterns of the upper region was very dense, while those on the lower regions were comparatively weak. - -In the distance, the black sky of the Great Western Desert lay far back, and in the distance appeared as numerous streaks of clear white clouds as well. - -Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu gazed at the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation that was not far away with their great livers as they pondered. - -Their understanding of the Great Western Desert's current state was extremely clear to their hearts. - -However, in the next moment, something strange occurred. - -Yan Zhaoge looked over once more at the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation before him, "So that was the real Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation?" - -He raised his head, "Ah Hu, you can't be too rash. That's merely the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation of the Eight Extremities World." - -As he spoke, Yan Zhaoge took out the Jade Dragon Sword from his Sacred Talisman Pouch, his eyes glancing towards the skies above, "This is still only the Grand Formation of the Eight Extremities World, but at that time, Grand Master of the Heavenly Thunder Hall, Zhou Xuan who was the Heavenly Thunder Hall's Chief of the Eastern Tang did not know whether he was the first person or the last person to see the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation that had already been born." - -"In the end, he had already lost to you, Elder Xu here who was the first who had discovered it. So, it seems that not only should we know of the grand formation from those of you who have fought, but also from those who did not. And what should we do afterwards?" - -Ah Hu blinked, "We shouldn't have thought that having already used so many thunder dragons would be able to make him give this up, and that this grand formation would only be something this big." - -Yan Zhaoge smiled without answering, "The only conclusion is that he hasn't thought through the consequences, and didn't think of a way to oppose us." - -Ah Hu looked at him, pondering, seemingly unable to believe his words. - -Yan Zhaoge laughed, "You can't say that, if we didn't plan and act, you could have still been lost in the mountains with the Sacred Artifact." - -Ah Hu patted his back, "Elder Xu is also a Heavenly Thunder Hall martial practitioner after all," - -Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Then you should do as I plan and let us go, otherwise you are just going to keep paying for that." - -Ah Hu nodded resolutely before turning to leave. - -Yan Zhaoge saw this and instantly laughed, "Then don't say that anymore." - -Looking at the massive Jade Sea Grand Formation which had appeared right in front of them, a cold light flashed within Yan Zhaoge's eyes, "The Great Eight Extremities World also has the Dragon Bone Mountain in its East Sea. If we want to leave, we first need to break through here." - -"But at the moment, as well as it being an Extreme Northern Sect's stronghold, it already belongs to Jade Sea City." - -"There is still the Heavenly Thunder Hall's Chief of the Eastern Tang, Elder Xu, also the previous opponent of our Broad Creed Mountain, the late Elder He Ning, not to mention that that Heavenly Thunder Hall's Chief of the Eastern Tang also happens to be not only our Sacred Sun Clan's Elder Crane, but also Jade Sea City's Eldest Martial Brother, the current Chief of the Heavenly Thunder Hall and a Martial Saint expert. - -In the end, this Jade Sea City must be very much alarmed by me, but after I left Broad Creed Mountain, Jade Sea City did not attack you," - -Yan Zhaoge shook his head with a laugh, "The reason why the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation of the Eight Extremities World has appeared over here is precisely for this reason." - -From being able to obtain this grand formation once, Jade Sea City was already very happy, "We also have a reason for this grand formation, otherwise how would such a grand formation come into being so suddenly -======================================== SAMPLE 273 ======================================== - -The new 'Rise' trailer from 'The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim' features the return of new and returning Skyrim characters as well as the game's new features. - -The official 'Rise' trailer debuted on April 1 with Skyrim returning for its second year and will feature familiar faces from the game as well as new faces and a number of new features. - -Skyrim featured a number of new additions as well, including an ability to turn the landscape into a snowy wasteland, new clothing, and a few new quests.

"Those people were killed by the Iranian government." - -On Monday, the conservative website Daily Beast published what it called "evidence" that the Iranian regime is responsible. - -"Iran is supporting the Islamic State terrorist group," The Beast wrote.

He intends to abolish the military. He also promised to send the military into Mindanao for "security". But the truth is that the Philippines' military does not have any legitimate business in Mindanao. - -Philippines' military is a creation of the United States. The first president to establish the military presence in the Philippines was Franklin Roosevelt. The Philippine constitution mandates the establishment of a military to protect the nation's security. However, the constitution also states that the military not engage in "invasive activities". - -In fact, as far back as 1946, President Manuel Quezon explained, under the Philippine constitution, any interference by the United States in the affairs of the country would be referred back to the Philippines. In other words, the Constitution mandates the independence of the Philippines from the United States and in keeping with the spirit of independence, there should not be any military presence in the country. - -In reality, the military is a tool of U.S. foreign policy. It was the U.S. government which decided to bring the military into the Philippines, not the Filipino people. - -The Philippine people have resisted the U.S. occupation in the past and they should be allowed to do the same now. - -The Philippine military must protect Philippine sovereignty, not Philippine sovereignty must be protected by the Philippine military. - -It was the U.S. government which decided. - -The Philippines is a sovereign nation and no longer under the rule of the U.S. - -The Filipino people must have their own sovereign nation, and not be subject to U.S. imperialism. - -The Philippines has repeatedly expressed its desire for an independent foreign government, and in fact has been demanding it since the time of the Manila Treaty of 1898. - -If this treaty can be so easily overturned by an imperialist power seeking control over the Philippines, how much sovereignty are the Philippine people to be granted in the 21st century when the U.S. government can act as "The Government of Uncle Sam" with impunity? - -The reality is that if the Manila Treaties are not upheld the Philippines will be "colonized"…as the term is used by Professor Jose Maria Sison of the University of the Philippines. This is very similar to what the United States is doing with Iraq through their "liberation" of that country. - -The Philippines will be "colonized", "colonized" over, and that means being controlled by the same foreign imperialist entity which has previously colonized that country. But that is what these two examples do, if not this, then with the same, or substantially the same, imperialist entity. - -So, by ending the US treaty on the bases and the U.S. military presence in the Philippines the U.S. has already broken the spirit of the Manila Treaty and they have taken a major step to bring about the subjugation of the Philippines. - -Furthermore, the Philippines is the only Southeast Asian country the U.S. does not have military bases in. The Philippine government needs to take all available steps to restore peace in Mindanao, to ensure that the military is no longer used. - -The U.S. should no longer have any bases in the Philippines and this means the end of the Philippines' colonial past. - -For more information on this issue please see Dr. Carl Salzman's excellent site: The Philippine Army and the U.S. - -The authors are part of the Philippines' Resistance Network - -Read More on This: - -US-Philippines Military Base Treaty Explained: The Philippine Army and the US - -The U.S. Military Bases in the Philippines and Their Purpose - -U.S. Plans to Build 7 Military Bases in Philippines: Philippine Concern? - -Why The Philippines Needs Military Bases: Philippines' History & Political Situation<|endoftext|>An early sign of the financial and economic turmoil to come. - -Over the past three years, the U.K. has been suffering from an unprecedented financial crisis that saw the nation's banks collapse under the weight of the collapse of a housing bubble.

In this paper we apply the same methods that were used to analyze fossil DNA sequences to estimate the divergence time and demographic history of the great apes relative to the other apes. Our results show that the great apes are the most divergences-rich lineage of all the ape and human lineages. - -Abstract - -Fossils, living individuals, and even their genome sequences are valuable tools for elucidating the evolutionary histories of lineages. The relationships between the great apes, with their well-documented hominoid–hominin evolutionary relationships, are of particular interest. The current estimates of divergence times and demographic histories of major ape- and human-groupings are primarily derived from analyses of DNA sequences or paleontological data, but these tools can be highly imprecise. The method we use takes advantage of the difference between molecular data and genetic data, in particular the information that has been removed prior to the assembly of the species-specific sequences. This removes the most informative portions of the genetic sequences, leaving a sequence with as few and as divergent nucleotide base pairs as possible. We estimate the age of the greatest extant gorilla ancestor (Gorilla gorilla) at 50.3 ± 1.2 Ma and that of the great ape ancestor (Pan troglodytes) at 49.8±0.6 Ma. For both species, the oldest dated specimens are at least 50 Kya. By removing the most informative portions of the DNA sequences, we show that the great apes are the most divergences-rich lineage of the vertebrate trees of life. We also estimate that the great apes are descendants of a single ancestral species; the gorilla-lineages are therefore divergences-rich even though they are members of one genus.<|endoftext|>I don't know the name of the game, but it's the only one with me and my roommate playing it together. - -How can I play this with friends? - -Are there any rules? - -Do I need the game installed on my mac or can I just download it from the app store and open it? - -How long are the mini versions of the games? - -How does the multiplayer work? - -What should I do if I get disconnected and will I still lose the games and progress if I don't rejoin after a minute? - -There is a couple of issues with multiplayer.

Or you can make up one if you hate the previous maps.If you play on a computer with more than 6GB of RAM (which I do not recommend) then you may have some performance problems. We didn't have these on our mac which was upgraded from 8GB of RAM to 16GB. For this reason I recommend you wait a couple of weeks and see if your computer is as much as you wish it to be.The mini version of this games can lag your computer. If you have a mac that is a little older, or doesn't follow the recommended hardware requirements, this would really be an issue. This can be fixed by running a program called the game's monitor in administrator mode.You can run the program and it will start up the full version of the game.If you need to be the admin to run the monitor, or just feel like it, you can try this:Just be sure to save and exit the application when you're done.<|endoftext|>This is a list of all of Al Gore's speeches, speeches written for him, and speeches and speeches written for his team. - -Speeches and speeches related to Gore - -Speeches and speeches related to his team - -Al Gore's speeches and speeches written for him - -Quotes<|endoftext|>On Saturday, one of the more intriguing stories from the early stages of free agency for the New England Patriots involved their two first round picks in this year's draft. This past weekend, they signed offensive guard Logan Mankins to a four-year contract extension and tight end Dwayne Allen to a five-year, $31 million contract extension. - -This week, that contract extension for Mankins was reported to be worth $8 million per season, and that was before the contract extension for Allen went public. - -Mankins' deal is worth $8,625,000 per season and is worth just over $9 million over the final two years, with $3 -======================================== SAMPLE 279 ======================================== -I recently was able to work on a project in the Clojure ecosystem and came across some really cool features for immutable data structures. One thing that got my attention was how immutable data structures use a different API than other data structures like maps or sets. The core data structure is still a vector or a pair or a map, but it does it in a very specific way. - -It may be easier to understand this new API in relation to Clojure's lazy evaluation strategy. Clojure has one of these which uses fn : - -(fn [x] (x)) - -So to use it we would write the following in Clojure code: - -(map #(iter % 2 )) - -fn is really powerful when it comes to immutable data structures. When it evaluates nothing it won't modify anything: - -(set/inc 1 ) #(println % 2 ) - -fn on the other hand evaluates its result every time to get a new value. - -We'd still use map here with set : - -(map #(set % 2 )) - -The difference is very subtle. The first one just iterates over its elements while the second one just sets each element to its successor. - -However there are some differences: - -Immutable data structures have some other important differences. - -When we think about immutable data structures it's difficult to tell them from other data structures because we expect them to be different. But it's helpful in understanding how Clojure's immutability works. - -For example when you've used Clojure for a while you may have seen one of these data structures in action. - -I won't delve deep into the details of those data structures, but let me know if you have better references. - -One of those Clojure data structures is a vector, which is used to store numbers. Here's a vector: - -Vec< Integer > { 1 2 3 4 } - -You've probably seen similar things in other languages. They may have a range of all positive numbers, or a bit field with a specific value: - -public BitSet< Integer > max = new BitSet<> (); public BitSet< Integer > min = new BitSet<> (); - -In Clojure vectors don't do anything like all those things. - -Clojure maps are like tuples: - -( def maps ( comp - -( fn [m] - -( let [x ( first m)] - -( clojure.lang.IRedgeMap/coll ( next ( conj x m)))))) - -maps) - -And they have a similar API: - -( def maps ( comp - -( fn [m] - -( let [m ( first m)] - -( clojure.lang.IRedgeMap/coll m)))) - -maps) - -However maps is what Clojure uses all the time for storing arrays and maps. - -The Clojure map API is pretty simple in many ways: - -Vars map maps maps map maps maps maps maps 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 ( ns foo ( :require [clojure.string :as str])) ( str/join ( map #( str %)) ( str/join ( map #( str %) %)) "..." )) 1 2 3 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 ( ns foo ( :require [clojure.string :as str])) ( str/join ( map #( str %) %) ( str/join ( map #( str %) %) %)) "..." ) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 ( ns foo ( :require [clojure.string :as str])) ( str/join ( map #( str %) %) ( str/join ( map #( str %) %) %)) "..." ) - -Here we set a number onto the first element of maps. The maps maps are defined in terms of a vector. So the :as is the type parameter in Str's clojure.string/join function. - -The Clojure map API, because it's a map, can be converted to vector! The conversion works exactly the same as the one in Str's clojure.string/join functions. - -This feature isn't just for vectors. It's also used for maps in Clojure's collection API! - -To see this in action, we look at Clojure's filter function: - -( filter #( str %) ( str/join % "..." )) 1 2 3 ( filter #( str %) ( str/join % "..." )) - -So if we want to find all occurrences of "hello world" in the string "... world..." we could do: - -( str/join "..." ( filter #( str %) "..." )) "..." 1 2 -======================================== SAMPLE 280 ======================================== -You might remember when the first "Ghostbusters" reboot, "Ghostbusters: The Video Game," was announced. You might know that you can pre-order the game on Amazon for $39.99 or at Walmart for $29.99. Or maybe you did a Google search on the phrase "Ghostbusters: The Video Game" and saw that its developers at Double Fine actually made a game about the movie that's on the DVD, "Ghostbusters: The Video Game." (It seems pretty obvious then, that the game includes a short movie starring Bill Murray, Leslie Jones, and the rest of the "busters", which is why it's included in the original box-set of 'Theatrical Releases.') - -"Ghostbusters: The Video Game" is scheduled for a June 2016 release on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation 4, and is already available for pre-order on Amazon. It also looks pretty nice for a game about Ghostbusters. - -I don't know a whole lot about the game, since I've just seen a trailer, but here's a quick peek at its first gameplay trailer. It looks pretty cool, too, so if you want to pre-order it, do it now. - -The latest installment in the "Ghostbusters" movie franchise was released in theaters and video stores over the summer and, in fact, opened over $70 million of its $144 million budget domestically. It continues to do well overseas as well. The film itself will eventually roll out on Blu-Ray and DVD later this year. - -So if you're a big fan of this iconic franchise, you'll probably want to give "Ghostbusters: The Video Game" a chance. It won't be for everyone, but if you like comedy, you might just like it. - -Ghostbusters: The Video Game is scheduled for release on June 22, 2016.<|endoftext|>The U.S. Department of Education is sending letters to private schools in the state of California telling them they must disclose their admissions policies and how they decide admissions – including the gender of students in the applicant pool. - -In April, the U.S. State Department issued a similar letter to the state. This month's announcement from the Department of Education in the name of fighting "discrimination" and "religious exemption" is the most sweeping. - -A federal law requires all schools to file reports to the Department for a four-year period beginning in 2015. For the 2015-16 school year, that means schools will have to file reports on the following issues: - --- admissions and retention practices. - --- the gender balance among applicants in the applicant pool. - --- the amount of scholarships for women, and - --- the number of gender non-conforming students. - -The state of California in its annual report to the federal Department of Education says that of all its schools that meet the Title IV of the law, only 6 percent comply with those reporting rules. - -For California's high schools, where roughly 90 percent of students attend private, religious schools, the rules are likely to be tougher. - -"This is a very important step to ensure gender-inclusive educational opportunities," said Kimberely A. Esparza, the Department of Education's deputy undersecretary of education. "These new rules are critical to ensuring that all schools follow Title IV policies that are consistent with their religious missions." - -"The Obama administration went out of its way to ensure that Title IV compliance was a top priority," Esparza added. "Our commitment to ensuring that all schools are providing equitable educational opportunities and opportunities for girls and women remains unwavering." - -But the state has yet to release some of the information students must disclose if they are considering getting in to one of the roughly 500 private high schools that receive federal funding in California. - -The U.S. Department of Education has sent letters to several private schools in California asking that they be disclosed the numbers of girls and boys admitted to the school per the school's enrollment trends. - -This is an obvious indication that the admissions standards for schools like private high schools vary greatly. - -The schools are not required to release the percentage of girls or boys admitted and must describe the percentage admitted separately if they do publish that data. - -One private high school in suburban San Diego asked the department for the percentage of boys in the applicant pool relative to the percentage of girls. The school said the applicant pool is about 60 percent males and 40 percent females. - -According to the state, the student body is about 70 percent male, 20 percent female and 13 percent intersex, or both. In California, many high schools are mixed gender. - -An online article published in the San Diego Union-Tribune last year suggests the numbers are even lower. One story suggested that only a quarter of boys in one of San Diego's top school district schools are in the senior class. - -"We want students of all identities to have access to opportunities and make informed choices -======================================== SAMPLE 281 ======================================== -[F4M] The Last Sixty Seconds Of "No One" Author: Stolen_from_my_Puppy_Cage_The_Final_Seconds of my "No One" fanfiction by Stolen_from_my_Puppy_Cage - -[The Last 60 Seconds] Last night, I realized the world we live in, and the way things are structured, may not be the real world that our children's children will live in for the rest of their lives. It may be some alternate world we never even found out about, with the rules and rules we never saw. My father had said that he doesn't believe in ghosts, but in the world we live in, I have found that to be true. That's where I've been having sex lately. This world we live in, and the way we live in it makes my father's old beliefs about ghosts and the universe seem a bit naive now. I find myself wishing he would have stopped being a father when I started feeling like my father. I wish he would have been a ghost who wanted nothing more than to be free. And he wasn't, now was he? Is my husband my ghost or is he just my husband? Or what is his relation to me in the first place? Is he even a man? Is he a ghost? Is my husband my ghost? I know my husband is a ghost, but I never knew my father to be one. That question has hung heavy in the back of my mind for years, since he died. There is no one else who will answer those questions. I've tried to convince myself that I'm not a ghost. And while I could be wrong, why should I stop trying? If you can't see how wrong this is, you're not the kind of person who could keep up with me if you did. I am not allowed to look any further than my current situation. All that is out of my control. All that does matter right now is my husband, and his needs. He's not perfect, obviously, and is still struggling with his demons. I could never understand what made my father do this. So what is my husband's fault? Is he always this kind, and needs to be loved unconditionally? Is he always this needy that he has to be taken care of? I know that my life is not as stable as his, and that he's not always there when I need him and that makes me feel so useless and unworthy. I don't know how I would cope with this. But I know there is no other option. What options do I have? I've thought about asking my husband to leave me for a while now. But as I sit here, curled up in the soft blankets of my bed and my eyes half-closed, I think he doesn't want to. He would not leave me. I don't blame him though. It's his choice whether to stay. I don't blame him. But I can't stay either. I tried to write "No One" a while back, but didn't quite get anywhere. Then I started thinking about it a lot, and realized I never got to finish writing it. I never had the courage to try again, or the motivation, which is why this fanfiction was never finished. This has been a real gift, really. Thanks, Stolen_from_my_Puppy_Cage. It means the world to me that you took the time to read a few lines of a fanfiction. I mean, it's not like you've read any fanfiction of your own.

His story would be brought to multiple endings because of multiple choices and the environment in a way that will make you explore all the different options.The first time I saw the trailer for the game, I saw the characters who will be main characters: a young, lone Russian survivor, accompanied by dog, and a strong Russian doctor, accompanied by a small dog.The game is going to introduce a lot of the creatures and animals with them, including animals that have been extinct for over 10,000 years and animals that have been extinct for even longer.The game will be set in an area of about 6 square kilometers. For a long distance, it will be more difficult to find food and the shelter of the forest. It is a very hostile environment with a high chance of fire and animals attacking with their claws and their teeth.The game is being developed for Windows PC, using the Source engine and developed through Steam.The game will feature a mixture of old and new gameplay features. It is one of the few survival and zombie role-playing games to introduce a large variety of game modes. For example, there will be a multiplayer mode and an option to be able to fight against the AI from the start. It will also include a huge amount of items that will be able to improve a character - and with your help the entire game can be even more realistic.The game will run at a steady 60 frames per second and is scheduled to be released for Windows PC in a few months.In the trailer there are many hints to the game, you can look at it in order to get a better idea about our game and its atmosphere.For further information please, see the game's website<|endoftext|>In the wake of the Sandy Hook murder-suicide, the state of Washington is pushing for background checks on many purchasers of firearms, including those at gun shows. - -The proposal in its current form has the support of one of the state's two U.S. Senators, Maria Cantwell, but was opposed by the state's House lawmakers during a House Public Safety Committee meeting on Monday morning. - -This marks the second time in a week that House members of the Joint Legislative Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security have been called to the state Capitol to consider expanding background checks to virtually every piece of gun-related purchasing — regardless of the sale.

The move follows a partnership between the two companies earlier this year, in which Alibaba opened over 10,000 "AliBees" around the world, where customers could use m-money payment systems on their devices. - -As the Chinese e-commerce market is forecast at over US$600bn by 2025, it will be crucial for Alibaba to enter into this market. Alibaba is hoping to use the m-money system for its own purposes, such as to facilitate payments to customers on other platforms such as Tencent's QQ. - -Alibaba's CEO and founder, Jack Ma, is a long-time supporter of Bitcoin but has also expressed his concern for its lack of legitimacy in the market thus far. As such, he recently started a "Chinese Bitcoin" exchange Bitocean, which is aiming to "add legitimacy to Bitcoin", as well as offering a payment system which he says: - -"will enhance the security of [Bitcoin] transactions, increase the speed of transaction settlement, and reduce the risk of fraud." - -Bitocean has partnered with Alibaba, who will receive an undisclosed portion in exchange for integrating Bitocean m-commerce payment technology into its online retail payment platform. The startup is also aiming for a launch in Q4 of this year. This means that Alibaba will be able to implement services similar to those of Western e-retailers in China. - -The move towards m-commerce is a positive one. Currently, e-commerce companies often offer payment methods such as credit cards through their online stores. M-commerce solutions, however, are a lot simpler than accepting credit cards. In the case of Alibaba, for example, all payment systems such as ACH, wires, wire transfers and so on will be supported. - -According to The Nikkei Asian Review, Bitocean will provide a full-service m-commerce solution, including payment processing, e-wallet storage, e-commerce platform management, security analysis, data analysis and fraud risk management, along with transaction monitoring and support. The company also aims to reduce user-trust by providing transparency in m-commerce transactions to increase transparency of the users. - -The move towards m-commerce is a positive one. Currently, e-commerce companies often offer payment methods such as credit cards through their online stores - -The company says it will start with 3,000 merchant accounts, and will add more merchants as its business develops. In the first quarter of its operation, the platform will support Chinese merchants, although its full-service model, with merchant support, will be used internationally in future. - -The company will also include the integration of blockchain technology, allowing the company to store e-tolls and make transactions more efficient and less costly - -The move towards m-commerce is another positive one. Currently, e-commerce companies often offer payment methods such as credit cards through their online stores. They are, however, more complex systems than traditional payment gateways, such as Visa, and can be expensive. In addition, there is a major drawback for online shoppers, as online stores in China are notorious for poor customer service. - -Blockchain technology can solve the problems of online shopping for both consumers and merchant. Blockchain is a public distributed ledger which allows for transactions to be recorded and shared without the need for a central authority to verify their authenticity. - -According to The Nikkei Asian Review, the company says it will use a "multi-sig approach", where different groups of interested parties will be able to participate in creating the blockchain for various purposes.<|endoftext|>I've been watching a lot of video games recently.

All the things that I have come to learn about video games in the last couple weeks in a very short amount of time have made me realize that I am far from a video game expert. Yes, I am a gaming junkie, but I really struggle to explain or explain something from the perspective of a video game. I've actually come to believe that video games -======================================== SAMPLE 286 ======================================== -The federal government may be pushing more gun purchases among American adults. - -A new poll from Pew Research Center found that 40 percent of respondents said that they had purchased a firearm in the past six months — while 41 percent said they had not. - -The results of the research, released Thursday, suggested that people who live in "gun-friendlier neighborhoods" are buying guns compared to the overall population. Respondents living in neighborhoods that Pew defined as "more gun-friendly" than their neighbors — which defined places with lower rates of household gun ownership, high levels of gun laws and higher rates of gun ownership in relation to the other households in the area — were more likely than those who lived in gun-friendly suburbs to say they were gun owners. - -Meanwhile, gun ownership rates were lower in the suburbs than non- suburbs in all four of Pew's gun control indexes. - -The Gallup-Healthways index found that the gun-owning rate was 11.6 percent in households where someone lives with someone who owns a gun, while it was 16.8 percent in households with no gun. The General Social Survey found the same results, as well. - -The Pew research came the same week as a new report from the American Academy of Pediatrics urged lawmakers in the U.S. to strengthen regulations on gun ownership. - -"When adults are allowed to own firearms, parents can exercise more control and influence over the gun's use," the research released by the Academy, an organization of pediatricians, also noted. "Parents can also work together as a team to make gun safety the responsibility of the caregiver, not just the child."<|endoftext|>The first full volume of the legendary fantasy series, The Way of Kings , by Brandon Sanderson continues to captivate readers with its complex and mysterious world.

"In some ways, he's already the King of the desert. - -Sanderson continues to dazzle, his writing never dull and his characterizations just as beautiful as the worlds they create. - - -"When you finish one book in the series, it doesn't matter how many are left to read, your mind can never be satisfied." - -The Way of Kings is the first of six books in the Stormlight Archive series. - - -The Way of Kings: Oathbringer is scheduled for release February 14, 2015. Brandon Sanderson is an American author of fantasy novels and short stories, many of which have been adapted for the screen.<|endoftext|>The number of people in Britain who have suffered a traumatic head injury and are unable to sleep has doubled in the past 20 years, new research says. - -Almost half of adults in England and Northern Ireland suffered such a brain injury last year, which can cause severe headaches and insomnia. - -A study of 6,000 people found many of them had trouble sleeping and suffered from depression at the time of injury or when they came to terms with their ordeal. - -And the number of people living with a traumatic brain injury was on the rise, the report said. - -In England and Wales, around 1,700 people suffering from a traumatic blow to the head are treated at hospitals each year, the report by the London Head Injury Institute said. - -The researchers examined data from the Health and Social Care Information Centre and interviewed more than 6,000 people – 7,000 of them adults aged between 16 and 74 who had been involved in head injury-related incidents. - -Dr Peter McShane, an institute adviser and neurologist at the University College London hospital, led the review. - -He said: "Almost half of the people in this survey had experienced a traumatic brain injury – the injury that is usually classed in medical literature as major. - -"This is an extremely traumatic event, and it has the potential to seriously affect both quality of life and overall happiness, and in some cases even result in death. - -"The problem is that it takes some time to recover from, with feelings of depression and low motivation, and many people will not return to work, or continue with education, in the years after. - -"There is a strong sense of stigma towards people with brain injury, which means that they feel like a second-class citizen in society. When they report their problems, they often feel they are being dismissed and judged in some ways, which doesn't allow them to be able to access psychological and psychiatric help. - -"The majority of people had not been involved in any other traumatic incidents before being involved in a head injury – for many this is their first experience of this. They might come from a diverse background and with different mental and physiological profiles, but if this is the case, there is a need to consider whether a wider social network is lacking and to make -======================================== SAMPLE 287 ======================================== -We'd all love to travel, but that's a lot different from actually doing it. And that's what makes the world's first ever flying taxi the perfect ticket for people who are too old, too poor, or simply afraid to take on the world's problems by themselves. - -The Aeronautica Aerea Venezia (the AAV) — officially called the "Aerojet A-100" — is an Italian-made turboprop airplane launched last year to bring together five groups of people in the lowest socioeconomic bracket who want to fly. - -The AAV's four crew members — all in their forties and fifties aged 70 and up — and a navigator sit in the cockpit of the airplane on a specially designed gondola that takes them out of the cockpit via a ramp at the back. The gondola makes the airplane much simpler to operate, eliminating the stress of carrying passengers and their luggage. - -The AAV first took off in May for a 20-hour endurance flight from Pisa, northern Italy, over the Lake Garda — which also happened to be where the AAV was assembled — to Rome. The flight covered 8,000 kilometers with just 20 gallons of fuel per day. - -After being fueled up, the gondola hovers for several minutes at high altitude on the same runway as the AAV. Once the airplane is in the air, a hydraulic system lifts the gondola to a higher altitude and drops it to the runway. It takes only two full rotations of the propeller — and a person — to drop the gondola. - -The AAV is designed to be as simple and efficient to use as possible, with limited fuel consumption and a flight time of only three hours, according to Aeronautica Aerea. And because it has to be flown by hand, it can be used to teach new pilots the ropes. - -The AAV is the brainchild of Italian entrepreneur Stefano Beniglia, who hopes that by funding a few thousand flights with the AAV, people of all ages around the world will feel compelled to venture off to the skies and see what's out there for them. - -"All these people who have the capacity to make flight a reality are dying to make it a reality," Beniglia says in a video explaining the AAV by the website Flight International. "Today they don't go out and they never will … [so] the AAV is a solution to the social, psychological, and technological problem of flying."<|endoftext|>Michele Bachmann has made it clear she doesn't give a damn about her fellow citizens, whether they're gay, black or Muslim. - -After the 9-11 attacks, Bachmann and other Republicans demanded the U.S. put an end to intelligence gathering on people, especially Muslim terrorists, and she's been a constant critic of our intelligence community's intelligence gathering on other countries. - -So it seems a little rich that we even now find ourselves dealing with the threat of terrorism stemming not from people who want to murder us, but from people who simply are trying to overthrow the government of their home country. - -When it comes to terrorism, Bachmann isn't concerned about the Constitution because the Constitution doesn't really apply to foreign nations, and she's willing to do what it takes to see us topple over — whether that means shutting down embassies or bombing our military bases, or threatening to invade us. She's also gone on record telling us we should put all our money into the military and take it from the poor. (Not to mention her support for sending troops back to Afghanistan.) - - -Her comments came to light when she appeared on CNN's Fareed Zakaria GPS. She told Zakaria, "We've got to know who's coming to America to do harm to this country and to attack us." - -When she was questioned about what actions would be taken against people who wanted to harm us, Bachmann reiterated that the government should be able to spy on everyone. According to Mother Jones, she also told Zakaria that it's perfectly acceptable for the U.S. government to spy on people who they think may have ties to terrorism, "because you know what, as a government, you have the legal authority to look at anybody who looks like they might be a threat to this country. It just doesn't matter if they're American citizens, if they're from another country—we can spy on them." - -While Bachmann has shown no remorse whatsoever for the deaths of American diplomats and soldiers in Benghazi or for the many Americans who have been dead in Afghanistan for years, it's clear she's willing to do anything she can to throw more and more bombs at innocent civilians. And that's not just on foreign policy. - -When Zakaria asked if Americans should trust the president or "a bunch of political grandstanding politicians," Bachmann said, "You know, I just believe in what the president has done.

I thought that after I served a plate of food, he would give me a kiss and then head upstairs and talk on the phone, but he stayed for a while and said he was having to go somewhere. Then he kissed me on the cheek and said he just wanted to make sure I was all right. - -I was feeling quite romantic—or, rather, very much in love with him. He was very romantic and, although I was still quite shy, I was also feeling very attractive and I was very happy. - -This was on a Sunday, so there were no distractions from Sunday School. It was so quiet at the house that we could not hear the dog at the neighbor's. This means that the dogs are never playing and there is not a lot of scratching from dogs that are not there. - -As I was washing it, I accidentally dropped a rag out of my washing basket on my son-in-law's shoes. The dog jumped up and attacked him. That's one of the things I do not like about dogs. They are very aggressive, very territorial. Sometimes you don't know why. - -When I came to, all my guests were sitting down to breakfast. He was standing by my side eating a piece of his breakfast. He had a look of confusion in his face; he had been acting pretty suspicious all morning. - -"Don't worry," I told him as he picked up the rag. "He hasn't done anything to you. He has been behaving very well to everyone else but the dog, so he doesn't want his shoe on your foot." - -I handed him his dish and he thanked me, then went into the kitchen. - -He finished his toast and took some milk and began eating. - -"I'm going to get my coat," I said, "and then you can all go and get yourself dressed." - -"I'm fine," I said. - -"You don't have to be. Just wait here." - -I went back into the kitchen and washed my dishes. I picked up the rag and put it on the floor and went into the living room to talk to my son-in-law. I could hear the dog at the neighbor's, so I knew he was not going to come back. - -"What was he talking about in the kitchen at breakfast?" said he. - -"I told him that if he wanted to have the dog off his feet, he did not have to talk about it all day." - -"What was that?" - -"He was going to have to go away for several days. He was going to talk to all his friends, I thought, and tell them if they ever were at his house." - -"Really?" - -"Yes, really." - -This was the best day of my life. I had spent all morning with this man. He was a very good friend to me in my old age. I thought about how I would greet him on leaving for the day and how I would walk into his house. Now the house was empty. No one was there. I felt very sad for the poor dog, which I never would have expected to say anything. I could now go on spending my last week with this man. It made me so happy. - -There was only one thing I didn't do for him. He didn't ask me to drive him to the city this summer. - -*** - -Two weeks before he died, he gave me this card: - -I had never read it before, but here was my son-in-law's message from another place. - -The dog is going away for a couple of days.

The commission is composed of 28 experts in 15 countries, including two UN-recognized special rapporteurs. - -And the meeting of the panel at the UN's United Nations Office in Geneva, Switzerland, is scheduled for Wednesday. - -It's a landmark project for the decriminalization of cannabis. It's the first time the body has looked at how criminalizing the drug harms not only individuals and communities but also the entire international system. And it's a first step in the long history of marijuana policy reform. - -The commission will report back to the world's leaders in January, and a new UN secretary general is expected to release an official report. And all eyes are surely on the U.S., which will presumably be in the same political place that it was in 1995, when former President Bill Clinton announced the first federal policy shift in the legal status of marijuana. - -The U.S. currently is leading the world in public and private policies. Last year, a Pew Survey found that a majority (54%) of Americans support legalizing marijuana, with 42% in favor of outright legalization. - -Meanwhile, the drug war continues, costing trillions of dollars annually. There have, of course, been big changes over the past half century. First came the end of outright prohibition in the early-1960s, followed by state experiments with reform. But until recently, the U.S. has kept fighting the war on drugs, relying on a drug war that began in 1914 with marijuana prohibition and just concluded in 1965 with a half-century of mass incarceration for drug crimes. - -It's hard to imagine how U.S. marijuana reformers can count on the U.N. to hold the line if a U.S. president takes an even more aggressive stance this November. - -But that doesn't mean the next U.S. president won't make some significant shifts. In 2014, presidential candidate and former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum said he "does not believe that legalization of marijuana is the first step to legalization of a whole host of drugs." Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has also indicated she's open to legalization. - -And the U.N. is the world's largest single source of funding for global drug control. It's the world's largest single provider of aid for drug rehabilitation and prevention, supporting research in the field. And U.N. leaders have repeatedly said they support decriminalization in cases where the drug war is failing. - -If there's any way to make progress on the issue of marijuana in the 21st century, then international cooperation is essential. - -At the moment, the U.S. and other countries are largely fighting one another to enforce their own drug treaties. If those regimes fall apart, the U.S. and other countries may have to decide which one to sign with. - -But the U.N. could take a lead role in a future international regime, if that happens. The panel report will have to include, in addition to marijuana, other drugs, which it should by now. The report also must set forth the best possible scientific methods for measuring the harms of use. - -And it will have to include a fair definition of "drugs." - -There's still plenty of time for the commission to come up with a definitive set of recommendations for marijuana policy reform, whether Obama takes office or not. But this new U.N. initiative provides the international community with a very strong voice. - -We've made enough progress already.

A Sacramento sheriff's deputy shot him as he fled from police in a stolen van. - -Ramirez is appealing the shooting; his attorneys allege the deputy was driving recklessly and Ramirez was a flight risk. Ramirez' attorney wants officers involved in at least two other deadly shootings from 2011 turned over to Ramirez for review. - -Sacramento County Sheriff Tom Allman called the release of documents to the media "an affront to public confidence." - -The shooting is the highest-profile use of force by a Sacramento County deputy this year. - -The decision on the shooting will now be transferred to the California attorney general because the case involves the Sacramento Sheriff Department and the FBI. Attorney General Kamala Harris' office will have to decide whether Ramirez' case warrants her office opening an investigation. - -If an investigation is opened, Harris will decide whether to bring charges. If not, the decision will be made by Deputy Attorney General Matthew Hart on whether the shooting should be referred to state or federal court. - -Sacramento County Sheriff's Office officials say they're disappointed with the decision. - -"What's shocking to me about this decision, and what's going to further distress our office, is that we didn't hear about it for almost two years," Allman said. "For months and months this case was covered by the press. Our deputies got calls and letters from members of the community every day because we were involved in these types of cases and I still can't believe that it's been two years." - -"In the course of the investigation you cannot take a case to another level," Sheriff Allman added.

In the past, Play Store users could only access some of these permissions, such as the read phone state permission that allowed them to access the storage on a device that isn't an unlocked phone. Now users can access full access to everything. Some people find this a dangerous shift for the Android ecosystem. Google is trying to protect users from third-party privacy intrusions. We're not interested in protecting you from Google's privacy intrusions, but we'd like to prevent others from abusing your personal data. - -This is why, in order to make it harder to abuse personal data obtained using your data, the Play Store needs to give users more control over their apps. - -As this article is already about privacy, I've also added this disclaimer: this post contains some technical details about Android permissions. Please understand those details, and if you're a new user, you probably shouldn't consider anything I'm about to say as good advice. - -The main permissions to consider are read permissions. Google does not have a centralized list of permissions to grant to or deny to apps. In its permission requests, Google suggests that you grant or deny access to access specific features, such as the ability to access and/or download the full contents of a device's SD card. This is a very general idea that many Android users find intuitive and useful. - -One problem that users have found is that when they attempt to grant those permissions, there is a significant delay before the requested permissions will be granted. The Google Play Store takes an extra moment to apply the permissions after the user allows the user account to have full write access to its storage. The longer this delay is present, the longer the user will be denied these permissions and, in the most extreme scenario, the user will be denied any permissions granted at all. The reason Google has made this delay possible, it explains in a Google Group email: - -In order for users to be able to perform certain tasks, including to update an app, users must have full permission to access important system or account information (such as contacts, call logs, photos, texts, files, etc.) on the Android™ device where the app is installed. These permissions must appear when the user is making a purchase, or after they receive a new text message or phone call from a business or another user in good standing within their contacts on the device. - -However, users find it difficult to understand why this delay will occur and, thus, even try to grant the permissions themselves. Google Play Store provides the following guidance to help users explain to Google and other apps why the delay in granting permissions actually hurts their own performance: - -To simplify this discussion, understand that each "permission" is granted (or -======================================== SAMPLE 291 ======================================== -[JURIST] The US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit [official website] rejected [opinion, PDF] a request [opinion, PDF] by the Catholic Legal Immigration Network [advocacy website] on Wednesday to review an order [text, PDF] from [official website] the Ninth Circuit to block removal of two undocumented parents who lost custody after the birth of their son. The couple asked [Washington Post report] the Ninth Circuit to order the Obama Administration to release the mother without allowing her to deport the father and father without releasing their son. The Ninth Circuit [official website] said that the Obama Administration could not deny the parents due process because the Constitution did not provide them with due process under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), but the court disagreed with the argument.

A Russian hacker contacted a journalist and confessed that he had broken into Lebedev's account and sent him a text message with an encoded password. - -On Thursday, Lebedev contacted the agency's head, Vladimir Markin. When Markin called Lebedev on Friday, the hacker said that a computer had hacked into the e-mail account and said that someone had demanded $17,000 of Lebedev's money. According to Markin, the person had made the password hard to guess - but was not able to use his skills.

By Friday, they had determined that an organization called Cyber Alliance was responsible for hacking Lebedev's account, the report said. - -The Cyber Alliance is made up of a group of volunteers "from all over Russia," Cyber Alliance said on its website. A group of Russian hackers and criminal groups created the organization to defend the users of the Darkode, a Web portal for downloading and sharing malware. - -The hacking of Lebedev's phone and computer was not the only attempt to break into his e-mail account.

He has been able to contribute to the team in many ways, although his shot selection has been slightly off this past season in the Summer League, as well as the team's overall offensive production.

But what if you think you have nothing to fear? Here's some background to help you decide. - - -What Are Copyright Terms in the U.S.? - -The first step, before you can file a lawsuit to get a copyright, is to obtain a letter of authorization (also known as an authorization letter), which can be done by submitting your application through the internet. - -(Note that you may want to start with the FAQ first.) - -For this step, here's a simple overview. You'll need to first obtain a copyright, then submit an authorization letter by mail, then to file a lawsuit. - -How Can I Protect My Copyright? - -There are three different ways that copyright laws are designed to accomplish "copyright protection" in the US (in addition to copyright on works, the other two categories are patent protection and related trade secrets). - -First, there are statutory copyright duration limitations on how long an author owns a work (the Copyright Office has the most detailed information about this). But there are also limits on the rights that a copyright holder has from the date of the work being originally created, and also for certain kinds of works under certain circumstances. In addition, there are additional protections that an author could have over information about the original work in ways not spelled out by law. These rules may apply to you or may not. If you think you were harmed by these laws or are the victim of copyright infringement, and you think that there's a possibility that you're the victim, you can start the process of filing a copyright infringement lawsuit. If you haven't filed a lawsuit yet, check out the next section. - -(If you want the exact language of both of these limits, you can find it here.) - -Second, the Copyright Act makes it possible to prevent others from reproducing your work, in certain circumstances. Some of these situations are not illegal. The DMCA is a law that criminalizes this type of copyright infringement. Here's more about that. And there are other ways to protect your work. - -Third, if the Copyright Act doesn't apply to you, you have the right to "fair use" -- which means you can use something that belongs to someone else without permission, even if you've already received permission from that other person. Fair use is a big deal -- you could save a life by reading some news reports, or find out what a person has been doing over the last 20 years, without infringing the copyright on the reports or the person's life experiences. But fair use isn't for everyone -- some would consider this a violation of copyright, and you may be able to get in trouble. If you think you might be in trouble for fair use, you're best off with attorneys to help you, but check out the FAQ for more information on what you need to know. - -Now that we've covered that, let's take a look at each one of our three categories of copyright protection. - -First, you have statutory copyright and copyright duration limitations. - -Then, you have the Copyright Act, which is the main legal framework for copyright and other laws within the United States. - -And finally, you have fair use, which is a huge protection for your works. - -How Long Can There Be Copyright Protection on a Work? - -For "works" other than musical scores, music, and literary works, copyright lasts forever. A few situations might require renewal of copyright. For example, an author should be able to publish the work in her lifetime, so no copyright is extended after she's dead. - -Copyright protection ends with the death of a copyright owner. In other words, if you publish a paper under your own name, and that paper becomes copyrighted after you pass away, you're not responsible for enforcing copyright after your death. - -Some things may need copyright protection after you leave this earth, such as news reports, books, motion pictures, and paintings. - -Will the Copyright Office Protect Your Copyright? - -The Copyright Office will defend you against potential infringement, and it takes no action if a copyright is never renewed. If you are the subject of copyright infringement, you should contact your local government agency or copyright holder to get it taken care of. - -In fact, the Copyright Office provides a "copyright troll" service by filing an enforcement proceeding, so you don't even have to handle an infringement yourself. - -You should also remember that filing a lawsuit to enforce copyright is expensive, time-consuming process. It can be expensive to defend yourself in court. - -What are Fair Use Protections? - -Finally, if your copyright includes a work that is -======================================== SAMPLE 295 ======================================== -Somerville High School's principal said she was sorry for having to shut down the school dance Wednesday because of the snowfall, but it turns out she was wrong. - -The school's principal was sorry for telling students to stay off the sidewalks Wednesday night after a heavy snowfall, but now she thinks she was wrong. - -"I apologize for having done this in the first place, and I'm sorry it happened," said Susan Gennaco, principal of Somerville's Woodlawn School. - -She said the "very heavy" rain and wind knocked out power to the school, prompting her to have her staff and security force stay out in the school's parking lot all night. - -"We had to cancel the dance due to the power blackout. We were afraid it would be so, so cold there." - -In addition to the power outage and no school, the school also had its fire department on standby for students. - -But Gennaco said those precautions were just not enough. - -"We were really worried," she said. "We knew the wind would drive this snow, and we really did not feel our students would be able to handle it." - -In a statement, Gennaco said, "We are currently looking at all options to keep students safe and warm during the long and windy nights ahead. While it may be tempting to keep everyone out of sight or hearing, that decision comes with the risk of creating a dangerous situation. As a result, we are re-evaluating our decision-making process. - -"We are taking all of this very seriously but we want our students to have fun at this special event and know that we are ready to move forward to the dance." - -When Gennaco was made aware of the snowstorm Wednesday, she ordered her staff to move the fire department out of the school's parking lot. At that point, she said, she felt safe having students stay on the sidewalks. - -"There was no doubt about it," Gennaco said Sunday. "I really should have been thinking in two weeks time, but I was so concerned about the safety as far as the power was concerned that I wasn't." - -The school's fire department said it was not the main reason the dance was canceled. - -"I would have been really bummed if the fire department weren't there," said Lt. John McGlynn. McGlynn said Somerville firefighters were ready and ready to handle anyone who needed their help. - -But Gennaco said the school's parking lot could have been a safer place for students to be. - -"We could have been putting our own students in a very dangerous situation," she said. - -Woodlawn and other neighboring schools did not close Wednesday, she said. Gennaco added that the school board and school administration are working together during this time to make sure the school system is preparing to keep Somerville kids warm and safe all winter. - -The Woodlawn School is offering a snow day at all schools this Friday, and the Somervill School district offers a special lesson in snow safety on Wednesday, Gennaco said. - -She said one of her priorities Thursday will be to have Somerville Fire Department stay on standby to respond to any emergencies or any other issues that may arise. - --- - -Follow Sarah Ravani on Twitter and Tout @SarahRavani<|endoftext|>You will need the following items: - - -• A plastic or metal container - -• A thermometer or thermocoiler to measure the temperature in your pot - -• A cooking pot with a built-in thermometer, which can easily be fitted to your pot with a lid - -• A pot holder. - -• An oven glove - -• Cooking utensils that can measure temperatures in °C (°F) and above.

It's the kind of event that gives fans some sense of closure, in the form of an entire season with all of its major plot points established. But it was an early sign that the series itself had something in store for viewers that they have no control over. - -The showrunners announced last weekend that a new "season" will premiere on Sunday, June 24, 2017. A few weeks ago they told reporters that this year they would not be adapting George R.R. Martin's books or creating any standalone films, but would instead continue their story with only an occasional scene set in George R.R. Martin's universe. As the story moves closer to its end, the actors have been given a big push to wrap up key parts of the story and get the next season started. Even though some of the season's events will be set in "A Storm of Swords," the fifth book in the saga, the producers are now going back and rewriting the show's finale, which takes place in the fifth book, A Dance with Dragons. - -Now, on the podcast The Red Room with David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, the show creators say the season will actually end on an exciting note, as we might have been expecting. In discussing the show's endgame, Benioff and Weiss are quick to note that they are already approaching a big moment where everything has come together and some sort of resolution can be found. They also say their plan for the finale actually involves "everything coming full circle," which is one of the phrases that we thought was a clever reference to the end of "Game of Thrones" before we realized it was actually referring to Jon Snow's resurrection. And it's not a completely surprising concept; when I interviewed David Benioff about the finale over two years ago, he told me that the story of the series might end up finishing on a cliffhanger or by having a big twist that you probably won't see coming. "Sometimes the end is not a resolution," Benioff told me. - -In that same interview, Benioff said that the final season would, if possible, end after the Battle of the Blackwater: a battle in which the Star -======================================== SAMPLE 297 ======================================== -The World Bank Group, the largest lender among the Group's 193 member countries, is among the world's largest lenders.

Unfortunately, many eating disorder professionals, and, some people and families, can contribute to the problem. The following list is offered as a resource. - -Supporting People with Eating Disorders - -When someone is struggling with an eating disorder, there may be many challenges within their daily life. This is especially so when there is a family history of an eating disorder. For example, a mother or a father may often have difficulties or difficulties with eating and emotional eating issues. This can make it difficult for them to fully participate in family life and relationships. - -When a person with an eating disorder has difficulties in their relationships and family life, it may be one of the contributing factors to the eating disorder. The following are some ways that people and communities can support an eating disorder recovery process: - -Provide information about eating disorders to people who need it. - -Reassure parents, siblings, friends, coworkers, or others that they can find someone who is sensitive and supportive. - -Establish a family and community support network. - -Offer family or social programs to help people with eating disorders find employment and education. - -Provide emotional support to people as needed. - -Offer support for families, school, community, and health services. - -Provide educational presentations that help people find healthy coping skills and coping strategies. - -Develop supportive networks among professionals, schools, and other service providers. - -Include people with eating disorders in community events (birthdays, barbecues) that are designed to encourage everyone, regardless of age, to enjoy life. - -Provide a safe, supportive place to exercise at home or in a community. - -If you or someone you know is struggling with an eating disorder or if you have concerns about someone's ability to recover, please get in touch with us 24/7 by calling one of the following support lines: - -U.S. Eating Disorders Foundation – 1-800-951-2930 - -National Eating Disorder Association National Helpline – 1-800-522-4545 - -Brief Eating Disorders Treatment and Intervention Information Line – 1-800-744-0069<|endoftext|>This is a simple, yet brilliant trick made even more amazing by the fact that it only requires a couple of minutes of work.

The sentence is to be announced today at 11 a.m. (2300 GMT), the official said. Pong is scheduled to officially be sentenced during a ceremony at the Rangoon Supreme Court in Rangoon and be removed from office the following day. The official said Pong was sentenced Monday. He was convicted along with three of his former aides for corruption and abuse of power, in connection with the procurement of a contract with the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Authority (NBCA) for the national broadcasting service (Radio-TV). The NBCA contract cost $5.4 million from 2009 to 2013, and has been the subject of a government anticorruption investigation for two and a half years. The judge in the four-week trial handed down the final verdict in December . But it was delayed last month for an explanation from the court about whether it had enough information. - -RANGON — The United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) has denounced a decision today by the former head of the Buddhist Order to be sentenced to seven years in prison in a corruption case involving the national broadcasting business agency. - -Pong is accused of accepting bribes totalling up to $22 million in exchange for granting contracts with the NBCA and a company owned by the UDD. His former chief of staff, Nong Poy Wongsom, and two of Pong's aides, Prachatai Natsakorn and Chatchai Sukdam, were convicted of corruption at the end of February 2015 and sentenced to life imprisonment. The government said Pong will be removed from his position, but the Supreme Court could also overturn the sentence, depending on how the UDD reacted. - -The case has been described as the most serious since 2010, when former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra was ousted in a popular military coup and later jailed for corruption. Shinawatra also appealed against his sentence, but his sentence was upheld by the Supreme Court the year afterward. If the case proceeds, the case will be heard by an Appeals Court, with Pong's sentence being approved by a majority of court members. - -Pong's sentence is likely to put him in an unenviable position. He won the presidency in 2014 with a large share of the vote, and his popularity has since been eroded by the corruption trials that have gripped the country. He said on his Facebook page on Friday that he did not accept his sentence, but refused to comment further as the Supreme Court began deliberating.<|endoftext|>A few minutes ago, I finished a set of the first three episodes of a new TV anime: Sword Art Online: Ordinal Scale. - -In this episode, we meet one of the main characters, Kirito, a normal boy with a normal life until he meets Kayaba Akihiko, a man known for murdering his students to build his online games empire. Kirito's goal is to find his real identity, so after seeing his real-world personality, he becomes convinced that Kayaba is the real deal and decides to help him find it. - -The show is a sequel to the light novels written by Reki Kawahara, which were later adapted into anime and light novels (including a film) by A-1 Pictures. It's an enjoyable and emotional show, with its cast of eight young and diverse characters in every facet of the story. - -This review, which is mostly a summary of this episode, will feature some spoiler-ish notes.

The way that Kayaba seems to use his reputation as an important political force for his own gain—as it is a way for him to manipulate others—is a fascinating element of the show. -======================================== SAMPLE 299 ======================================== -When the first video began flooding the Internet, it did not take long to identify the culprit: an African-American woman. - -The woman, Elizabeth "Lizzie" Johnson of Houston, Texas, was wearing her hair in braids and was holding a baby in her arms, wearing a beaded headband with a flower on it. Her face and body were covered in tattoos. - -Johnson, a mother whose baby's head was covered in tattoos and whose face and body were covered in tattoos, may not have intended to look threatening, even if it was not the wisest thing to do. Still, her actions led to a fight that escalated into a fight that resulted in the death of her white, male attacker, 24-year-old Brian James Lucas. Johnson was charged with capital murder in his death. - -The video clip has gone viral, appearing online more than 80,000 times as of this writing. Many viewers are appalled. - -But other people have posted comments on social media saying that since Lucas's race was not known until about 20 minutes into the scuffle, the man is not responsible. Instead, they say that Lucas was simply responding to Johnson's aggressive behavior. The comments have been posted with the hashtag #KillAllWhiteMen. - -In fact, Lucas was a white man. He was shot and killed by a black man, Donta Harris, in the bathroom of a church on the same night that another young black man, John Crawford III, was killed by police in Wisconsin when they confronted him for pointing a toy gun at children. A white sheriff's deputy was later charged with the murder in Crawford's death, and it was later determined that the officer was not racially motivated. - -Regardless, white men have been the victims of racial-hate attacks. - -According to an FBI report released in 2015, racial discrimination and hate crimes remain "persistent problems across the United States." The most frequent targets of this harassment were, unsurprisingly, people of color and their supporters, although "religious and others targeted" also made up the majority of victims (71 percent in 2012). - -The numbers may have worsened in 2016, as two white men died after getting out of vehicles in which their passengers allegedly had their hands on guns, which was not the police calling the shots on them. The Washington Post reports that three police officers have been shot in the three months since the fatal shootings of Michael Brown and Freddie Gray in neighboring Baltimore. - -The FBI report found that "disparities in a variety of areas such as housing, employment, education, health, and criminal justice are still present across all racial, ethnic, religious, and linguistic groups in the United States." - -"The race of victims is frequently more important than the race of suspects in some violence related situations, particularly when the victim and suspect are both white or African-American," the report stated. "For example, people victimized by hate crimes targeting whites are more likely to be victims of hate crime and be victimized by a stranger, than are perpetrators of hate crimes targeting blacks or Hispanics." - -The FBI also pointed to some of the motivations behind anti-black violence in its statistics. "Black victims and offenders face similar life threats: both African-American and white victims and offenders report victimization in the course of a violent crime and also in the context of physical injury; both African-American and white victims and offenders report an offender's use or threat of violence in the course of a violent crime," according to the report. "These findings suggest that the risk of African-American victims experiencing violence may be similar to the risk faced by their white victims in many instances." - -In March, a white couple, Charles Thomas, 47, and Jessica Chambers, 45, were shot and killed in their home in suburban Cincinnati while it was occupied by a black family. Their murder was captured on videotape by the woman's husband, who was a relative of the couple, before he put his phone away. The same week, a local sheriff's deputy was shot and killed by a man who believed he was the shooter, a man claiming to be of black descent. He allegedly left the scene with the deputy's gun and a black bag with a gun inside. Authorities said the bag contained a note and a receipt with "KKK" written on it. - -In October, two white women were attacked on a Southwest flight from Cincinnati to Kansas City, Missouri: One of them was assaulted and hospitalized for her injuries, while the other endured threats of violence. The attacker apparently made comments about the race of the woman who was assaulted. - -And in October, a man walked into a church in South Carolina and shot and killed one clergyman, the Reverend Clementa Pinckney, who was among nine shooting victims during a Bible study. - -In October, a man was indicted and charged with killing an Indian man and wounding another man on a train in Arizona.

"We want to maintain what's great here right now so that everyone can visit." - -The decision comes nearly 18 months after Nashville Mayor Karl Dean announced his intention to sell City Hall and turn part of the historic building into the Ryman. Dean said he wanted the sign to "become a cultural icon in Nashville and the region," saying that a new building would give the landmark a boost of revenue and would draw more people to downtown. - -But critics slammed Dean for pursuing the plan, arguing it wasn't needed to get the Ryman built. They cited the lack of any major construction along the corridor that intersects with the Ryman, the fact that neighboring clubs have managed to survive past two full years without any major renovations, and that it was cheaper to lease the building than it would've been to renovate it. - -The building itself is considered so haunted that it's been the setting for a string of television shows, including 'Dexter,' 'Dexter,' 'Heroes,' 'The Walking Dead,' and 'The Walking Dead.' But no new construction has taken place in decades. - -"I think it's a good decision," said Paul Davis, president of the Ryman. "If I was the owner of the Ryman, I'd be excited. It has a lot of potential to draw people. But it's hard to do. We need to upgrade the building to do that." - -Davis said the sign, at 1003 Nashville Parkway, will go down when the current ownership sells. But while the current ownership group owns the Ryman, the city still needs to work out a new lease to take over the building. - -"The city's ownership group is trying to do everything they possibly can to keep it in business," he said. "We don't have any financial interest in the Ryman. We want to see it succeed." - -The issue comes about a year after the City Council announced a plan to use a new tax increment financing district around downtown to help fund major development projects. Dean and others wanted the Ryman sign to be included. - -"It's part of what we have planned," said Councilwoman Megan Barry, who chairs the City Council's Public Works Committee.

So, I don't think it is unreasonable for the white Americans, the Republicans and Republicans' supporters, to worry about what would happen to the entire system if their candidate loses. When people have a choice between two candidates who represent radically different political philosophies and philosophies that lead to very different policies, there is no reason for them to choose one of them. - -Also, it's important to keep in mind that if we want people who look like me, who have black skin, are Christian, have American citizenship and are part of the American tradition and heritage, to have a voice in politics, we shouldn't be afraid to have a voice in politics. There is just as much reason to be concerned about white males not having a political voice as there is for people of color having a political voice and minorities not. - -I'm not really concerned about losing the black vote. I'm concerned that our black youth are being encouraged to believe that black people are nothing more than stereotypes, nothing more than thugs. - -As for the white vote, I have heard of a very strong push by Republican leaders to get white voters to stay home, which will only give a boost to the Democrats. - -As -======================================== SAMPLE 301 ======================================== -The New York Mets have re-signed David Wright for another two seasons. - -The veteran shortstop is receiving a $20.4 million salary through his 2020 season, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports. - -Wright, 31, hit .282/.334/.441 with 23 HR and 72 RBI in 150 games.

It is an effort that has thus far paid off, and in the last few months the administration has achieved considerable domestic and international accolades — including the UN Human Rights Council's highest honour. - -"There is no country in the region or elsewhere in the world that is more open-minded, more enlightened, more tolerant than the Philippines," Duterte told the UN in 2015 — "and there is no country where human rights are respected as much as the Philippines." - -But the reality for many Filipinos is quite the opposite. The National Capital Region (NCR) has been ranked among the most corrupt in the world by the Global Witness, with scores of reports exposing cases of extrajudicial killings, corruption and other abuses linked to "crime syndicates" or the state itself. Over the past year, the US State Department warned that the country could be on the verge of civil war. - -ADVERTISEMENT - -With that in mind, perhaps now is the right time to turn the spotlight back onto the Philippines' "crime" problem. This article seeks to explore the issues of crime, policing and violence in the Philippines and to assess the government's response. - -The following is an outline of the main issues I will be looking at: - -• Crime and the criminal justice system in the Philippines. - -• Police forces, courts and prisons. - -• The "war on drugs" and drug-related killings. - -• Violence in the drug trade. - -• Trafficking routes. - -• Human rights abuses committed by law enforcement agencies and members of the military. - -A discussion of crime problems in the country is complicated by a deep divide between the political Left and the Right, the two groups with the most experience in dealing with the country's internal security challenges. This divide has long been a source of domestic strife and is, in large part, an outcome of the Philippine political system itself. - -For years, the Left's strong emphasis on social reform has largely meant their preference for government intervention in the economy and social issues, whereas for the Right, the focus has been mainly on military discipline and the rule of law. A country suffering from a population explosion driven by low life expectancy and an aging society, the Philippines has never experienced an insurgency. That is, until now. - -Duterte is not only a populist president with a populist policy agenda; he is also a law-and-order candidate, and this has helped him win a remarkable 21,000 votes, or 40 percent, of the total nationwide vote, versus other candidates (more than the two top candidates in the national elections, Mar Roxas and Maria Leonor López de Cordova). - -To an extent, this is just more evidence of a "carnage being fed with bullets" phenomenon in the country. In his inaugural speech, Duterte declared "in this country, every murder is a crime; every pusher is a pusher; every thief is a thief; every drug lord and criminal syndicate member is a drug lord or criminal syndicate member; and, I am, and always will be the president of all -======================================== SAMPLE 302 ======================================== -I am very passionate about my blog, and this is my way of thanking you! - -I was the recipient of a wonderful letter from someone I have never met! - -To my surprise, she included an item that was only available through our charity auction – the book of poems that I wrote for my little boys. - -I am honoured that she read and received such kind words about the book – and I hope that I have given her some comfort while you are on your own journey through life. - -I will also include a list of all the proceeds from the book's selling on our Charity Auction. - -Please don't let this opportunity pass you by. - -If I can help any one in need, I am happy to do so! - -Love… - -Kali<|endoftext|>An employee of the US Department of Defense is in a "critical condition" after reportedly shooting himself in the head at D.C.'s McPherson Square. - -A law enforcement source told DCist that a man had been shot in the head by a contractor working at McPherson Square early Friday morning. - -The man was being treated at a hospital for critical injuries. - -The Department of Defense (DOD) told DCist that it is "not aware of any injuries at McPherson Square." - -A representative for the DoD told FOX 5 that it is not currently known when the contractor may be released.

In particular, we looked at the data Facebook was using for its ad targeting and, in an effort to help advertisers, here's a handy summary of a similar study done by another online advertising company (which is also owned by a very large online advertising company (who knows who else owns them as well))) called Google AdWords . - -You'll notice a few things about Facebook's approach to this problem: - -It's not limited to the United States. It's not trying to track US internet users. It's making use of many different databases. It uses statistical methods. Facebook doesn't care about privacy. Facebook doesn't track users who don't have a Facebook account. - -So what gives? Do people really care that Facebook is tracking them in certain ways? And by tracking users, does Facebook mean to advertise to them based on their behavior within the Facebook social network itself, or does Facebook mean to serve them ads based on their activities on other websites, such as those using the Adsense network of tools? Or simply to track users who happen to be in the right physical part of the world, or one with a certain kind of computer? - -In fact, one of the interesting things to me was that this is almost exactly the same approach that Facebook has been using since it started in 2008, when Facebook began to look at this problem more rigorously. Back then, I wrote about how Facebook was using the data from Google, and how the only reason Google's search engine wasn't the first to use the data was because Facebook used its own algorithm to do the tracking (a topic I'm actually pretty sure I'll be discussing a bunch, especially when Facebook's own data about activity on the network begins to surface). - -So to summarize – Facebook was tracking people across the Web in 2008-09 for various reasons, including to see how active users were on the network, and how well it could 'match' advertisers with their target audience. In 2010, Facebook decided to abandon these efforts for a more limited (but still significant) purpose: to help advertisers 'reach' more people; Facebook only -======================================== SAMPLE 303 ======================================== -"The last words I had spoken with her were: 'Don't believe everything you read.'

It is a bit more than 6,000 pages. The draft which is posted here was in response to a query by Jefferson, in response to a query from James Madison, about the draft and the question of what the document would be and what it should say. - -The questions Jefferson sent were quite detailed, including: - -To whom the papers of the Declaration of Independence be addressed? The one or the other of the two? Do you intend to send each one separately, or together, as you please? You will find all the papers of the Declaration of Independence under one title. The titles I have attached will render easy your finding them individually. The first was originally addressed to "Her Majesty's Most Excellent Majesty Queen Charlotte," and was entitled "A Declaration of the Immediate Causes which Induce and Justify the Secession of Maryland from the Federal Union." In my answer to that letter the following questions were raised: "A declaration of immediate causes, on which the separation may be founded, is peculiarly required in the case of any new political unit. It must have the whole truth, both in facts and in law, and must explain the acts of that unit without imputing them to the whole. It must relate the reasons to which the unit owes its independence. Its purpose must be to secure its own rights, and not to destroy those of others, to establish justice, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. All the provisions of the articles in question are embodied in this single proclamation in order to produce at once the sense and the effect of that which it proclaims; and to give to the principles which are contained therein a more ample and specific form." Having duly considered these circumstances, I have revised my original declaration, and have now made them the subject of several explanatory notes. - -In the Jefferson drafts, on the first page, the letter, and the question of which one should be sent separately are addressed to "the one or the other"; on the second page, to "the one or the other"; on the third page, to both, and on the fourth page, to the one first and to the other. On page three, which is not included here because it is actually Jefferson's second draft, I did explain that "the first draft was originally addressed to 'Her Majesty's Most Excellent Majesty Queen Charlotte.'" - -But on page four the questions are addressed solely to "her Majesty" and "her Majesty's Most Excellent Majesty." And on the fifth page, which, strangely enough, does not include the words "in reply to" even once, it is entirely "her Majesty's." Thus, the Jefferson draft begins on a different page from the one which has the question on the first page ("in reply to her Majesty's questions"), and the other answers to her questions have their answers left out and then reinserted as the draft proceeds. - -As it has been with all of these drafts, the Jefferson drafts (1, 2, 3, etc.) can be purchased from the Thomas Jefferson Foundation website and through the Library of Congress. - -A version of this post appeared on my personal blog, which can be found here. I have also published a book, Jefferson in Exile: America in the Reign of George III, which has been put on my website.<|endoftext|>The government of Alberta is not backing away from an effort to make the province's sex and relationship education more inclusive of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) teens in the workplace. - -Education Minister Jeff Johnson says in an op-ed in the Calgary Herald the province isn't backing away from efforts to make Alberta a more welcoming society, despite its controversial laws legalizing same-sex marriage and civil unions. - -Last week, Johnson signed a motion with the New Democratic Party calling on the government to create a public education campaign about safe workplace conditions for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered Albertans. - -Alberta is one of the few Canadian provinces that doesn't have a law explicitly prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation. - -However, Johnson says in the op-ed the province is standing behind its policy of not imposing its views on other people. - -"Alberta's human rights legislation is explicit and clear (in this -======================================== SAMPLE 304 ======================================== -Honda - -Honda has been on the road to recovery recently, and the company says it's on track to return to profitability in 2020.

"The U.S. dollar value of yen sales is one of the best parts of our business," Ogawa says. "With a weak yen, we think it's possible to maintain our current cash position." - -Honda's biggest business, however, is North America, and it's struggling to sell bikes like the Civic in the United States where it hasn't been able to find an audience yet. - -It's also struggling to win over a new segment of American consumers who have been largely uninterested in the sportier, more expensive bikes like the CR-V and the CR-Z. - -Honda has tried to broaden its presence with new models like the Fit EV electric sports car as well as the i-MiEV, plug-in hybrids and high-tech concept cars, like the FCV concept, which Honda hopes to sell for a price of no more than $40,000. - -Honda expects sales of these new models, along with its new commercial vehicle plans, and other brands such as Kia and Hyundai to help it return to profitability in at least half a decade and be profitable within the next five years. And these vehicles are more suited to a U.S. market in which the Honda Accord and its bigger siblings still dominate. - -Although sales in North America are growing, there is still room for growth, Ogawa says, and the firm's business strategy is to expand through new vehicle markets, particularly China, where sales are projected to increase nearly 30 percent in 2014 and nearly half that in 2015. - -The company believes that its growth in Asia will be more than its sales in the U.S. and Europe, and that the firm can capture a larger share of the large Chinese market. It's also developing an expansion strategy in Asia specifically in North America where it has been growing slower. - -"We really have to do something in North America to bring more growth," Ogawa says in an interview.

But, if anything else, this isn't exactly standard girl-on-girl work. - -Cooper is the vice president of the adult entertainment company Vibrations. One of her big responsibilities is overseeing the production of videos for the company that are meant to be seen by the public, and the best part about this is that the work is incredibly sexualized and is almost always filmed by a male. - -While she has been working in the adult industry for a little over a year, she didn't know this until she arrived at work on her first day. - -It turns out that her fellow employees at her company also work in the adult industry too.

You might need to get Internet to research or do anything online. In these kinds of environments, this could be very useful," said Matt Martin, program director of the Council for Local Internet Access, which is pushing to bring high-speed Internet more widely across the country. - -While other countries have similar plans, this doesn't mean U.S. consumers will be able to get a gig speed Internet anywhere in the near future, however. Right now, the companies building these businesses say that many customers aren't interested — unless they live in a city with plenty of competition. - -"One of the challenges we are facing right now is how do we connect to the majority of households in the U.S.," said Marc Benioff, founder of Twitter. "We know there is a huge opportunity in connecting to underserved homes and businesses, but it is really hard to get there." - -That's why startups such as Urban Airship and AirBnB have built their businesses on making it easier to set up Internet cafes. - -Both companies allow independent operators to start in any neighborhood, whether that be a city with few options or a big city with dozens. The companies also work with cities on how to promote local businesses and give credit to places that offer it. - -"If you had to ask which kind of city is a place where people are going to go to use the Internet … it's a tough road to navigate," said Benioff. - -But these companies are also finding that more cities are interested in the idea — and are offering businesses a chance to test their new services. - -Sierra Vista, Arizona and San Diego, California, have hosted initial tests of their Internet cafes, which are called "virtual cafes." The idea is to provide businesses with locations with Wi-Fi, but without the need to open up a restaurant storefront. Customers don't have to wait in long lines to get internet, and they get it faster. - -"We really wanted to see if a non-traditional way would be really useful," said Sarah Davis, the city's chief of innovation. "We really wanted people to have Internet access without having to have a restaurant or bar in the front." - -This is a big problem in many big cities. Some cities such as Washington DC, San Francisco, Austin and New York have all banned the use of public Wi-Fi in their establishments because it creates a "virtual monopoly," according to Benioff. By contrast, most cities don't have laws about a restaurant or bar's right to sell fast, free Internet access. - -Even -======================================== SAMPLE 306 ======================================== -By now, most of you have seen the video of Alex Jones showing off all his "alternate facts" about the election, about Hillary Clinton, and about "the system" working against Bernie Sanders. - -It was a brilliant moment to expose the way the right often uses facts that are just not true in order to manufacture the kind of emotion that is key in a right-wing election year. And, the Joneses are already working on turning this into a documentary. - -Now, Alex Jones is doing what he can to spread those "facts" beyond his own circle. - -At the suggestion of a concerned supporter, Jones is looking into getting an American flag made to sell for $100,000. He's got a bunch of people making plans for it, including a former Navy SEAL, a conservative Republican activist, and the producer of the "Reality Bites" cable show that was among the first to use fake "video" footage. - -The first flag, called "The American Flag," will sell on his American Liberty Report website, where "Alex Jones" also sells other items. - -Jones is raising nearly $75,000 toward The American Flag. That is a goal for the flag — and for an initial fund-raising round. Jones is considering a second round of fundraising, or raising more money after he gets the first round of orders. - -Jones is "looking into making a flag to sell," according to the American Liberty Report website, where he's promoting a "patriotic book club" in his show. - -The flag and book series are available to members of the American Liberty Report's "Patriot Book Club," said Kelly Gwyther, an editor for the American Liberty Report's parent company, American Free Press. She added that The American Flag flag, in its Kickstarter video, had raised about $70,000 as of Wednesday afternoon. - -She said she does not know where Jones' money is coming from. "I'm not privy to that information," she said. - -The Flag, which depicts a "Star Spangled Banner," was inspired by a "patriot" flag that Jones, a former Navy SEAL, made to put together with people he invited on his radio show, Gwyther said. - -Gwyther said the "American Flag" could also sell for millions. - -"We're trying to get it sold for as much as we can because it's not just our flag, but it's our patriotic book club," she said. - -The flag and book series are not the first product that Jones has promoted online and through his media empire. When he launched his conspiracy website in 1999, he started selling T-shirts that said: "The World Is Flat." The shirts, which sell for $19.99, are available at Jones' website. - -"We made that up," Jones said in a 2014 audio interview with WND. - -The shirts have not been endorsed by Jones, Gwyther said. - -The American Liberty Report website also promotes books that Jones claims "support" the conspiracy theory about the globalist goal with the United Nations to make "the United States irrelevant," and to "take away our Second Amendment." - -Among the books that Jones' website features are a book titled, "The Plot to Seize the White House" by William Engdahl, a retired colonel and former senior Pentagon official who is a foreign affairs blogger. - -Engdahl, also an ex-military man, is seen as something of an expert on the U.N. He is author of several books, "The World Order," "The Third World Invasion," and more. - -Another book has been selling on "American Liberty Report" is a book by Robert Parry. - -Parry has written extensively on government corruption and on what he calls "the coup d'etat," or the U.S. coup d'etat. He previously wrote a book about the Kennedy assassination and other subjects. He is a retired reporter who has covered the CIA and the United States national security establishment. - -The American Liberty Report featured Parry's The Plot to Seize the White House in early 2016. It did not explain on its website why it included the book on its site or how it could be "fact checked." - -A "American Liberty Report" reader named Joe, whose address was provided by Gwyther, posted his request for a flag on the American Liberty Report site, saying, "I have a few items that I would like to sell.

She seemed to be doing better and better as we got older. As a toddler she would get upset because she couldn't get her hands on something. At age 3, my wife would say, "Just take a break," and Molly would get upset. - -Molly was 4 1/2 years old when on April 26, 2008, we became pregnant again. I did a second full ultrasound of my 3rd pregnancy after the first missed on the second. This time the nurse, the midwife, and the doctor all thought they saw a clear spot on the ultrasound. (my husband and I were both surprised by that!) By April 29, 2008, it was apparent that we really were pregnant. I called my doctor and he sent me the information from the second ultrasound and said we should keep Molly and start trying to get pregnant again. I asked if we could wait until June or July and go to the fertility clinic in person for a second ultrasound. His response was, "Oh yes, it's possible. There are lots of times we could go in and do the physical exams over the phone. Most women only do that once or twice." - -He recommended we go up and make a full physical a few weeks later and that way we could have a second one done while we were there. It was decided to travel to New York City to do our physical in person. We were booked to get a second ultrasound there by the midwife. I was to call her and let her know we were expecting. (my husband had a busy work schedule on his vacation and we took time when we could to plan the vacation!) We flew there March 12, 2009. I made a lot of phone calls to find out details. Most of the time the details were not the same. We made other arrangements and were told by the midwife that it was possible that the "preborn" parts of the fetus couldn't be seen on our second ultrasound, but she felt strongly that as long as she knew that it was a baby we should do it anyway. On March 31, we made an appointment for a 2nd full physical. - -On May 15, 2009 I drove to mid-town Manhattan and took the subway to meet the midwife. In the lobby I had to show my insurance cards and sign an informational document so I could pay for the insurance with a credit card. My insurance had changed a few years earlier, allowing it to deny or add to my coverage things I do not need. My insurance didn't cover any of the things I normally have covered on my old plan. A couple weeks later this policy changed so we were offered a new plan, which was much more like the plan I was on when I had my first ultrasound. - -I called midwife the day I was scheduled for my second full physical and asked about the possible cause of my miscarriage (this has happened to me before). She said she had discussed it with a family member who had had it, including me. She said the miscarriage was a side effect of the first pregnancy, and she had a similar "complication" that had gone away in the second pregnancy. - -What had she been told about the second pregnancy? She said something about the fetal development of the first pregnancy and its effects on the fetus developing in the second pregnancy. I was surprised at the idea that there could be another possibility, it seemed almost to be begging to be looked into. We agreed to try to see our general practitioner next week and have his opinion. - -On the day of the physical, the midwife said that we could have our blood drawn and have the ultrasound done that afternoon. I called to let him know we would be there and that he should be on it. It was then the doctor saw that the line on my finger was swollen. When he was looking at my finger he told me he had never seen a single cell in it that didn't turn a solid color. It looked like blackberries, all on one side. (he said I was showing red blood cells when there were not even any red cells in his line). The doctor also said that after I had gotten pregnant he had a few patients who got a little bump on their finger or their finger tips and asked if they could have it checked out. He said, "Just be sure to tell them in advance it's a pregnancy and not a broken bone." - -My first question was why would a doctor tell patients to check for broken bones if I was not getting a break in my finger? He said the most common thing of concern is something like a carpal tunnel, which happens from excessive pressure of the hand from lifting something heavy.

The first of the five-colored Ferrari 599 models comes in metallic red. The Ferrari Enzo looks beautiful, too. - -This new color scheme for the 599 is not Ferrari's first for the F1 car. In 2007, Ferrari unveiled a metallic red Red Bull that was intended to help give the car an "unrivalled power" and "extreme performance." - -Read our review of the 599. - -The color scheme for the Enzo is a bit more subtle, but still looks awesome, too — especially compared to earlier examples of the same color. - -We've been waiting for the green-red 599 to finally grace the showroom floor.

Many of these metro areas, especially those outside Houston and Austin, have reported population declines for years. And the census results suggest that the situation isn't changing any time soon. - -Texas counties with populations over 250,000: - -Population: 7,856,913 - -Number of cities: 703 - -Number of counties: 10 - -Number of places: 1,106 - -Population changes : 1,060 - -Total population change: -3.3% - -Population growth : 7.7% - -Unsurprisingly, Dallas County continues to lead the way. This includes not just the five cities and four counties in which it borders, but also its six surrounding counties. - -The other Texas counties with significant population losses were in Harris, Fort Bend, and Harris. - -The population is in decline in Harris County due to what can best be described as a death spiral: - -Population: 48,732,967 - -Number of cities: 2,054 - -Number of counties: 6,749 - -Number of places: 3,073 - -Population changes : -2,632 - -Total population change: -31.0% - -Population growth : 16.2% - -Population decreases : 3.9% - -Total number of residents leaving Harris County (since 1997): 1,981,200 - -Total residents leaving Harris County since 1997: 2,919,500 - -We can see a similar pattern with Fort Bend and Montgomery Counties. Both saw a decline from 2007 to the 2010 census, with Fort Bend experiencing the largest loss in percent change between the 2007 and 2010 count. Montgomery experienced the largest percentage loss in percent change between the 2006 and 2010 count — over 30 percent. - -Finally, we have Travis County, which is in the Houston metro area. Its population increased slightly from 2007 to 2010 as people flowed into the area, but since then it has shrunk again, and is still shedding residents. The number in Travis is down by more than 4 percent for the last decade, and is the only Texas-based county that lost population between 2009 and 2010. - -Texas cities with populations over 250,000: - -Population: 7,746,543 - -Number of cities: 1,061 - -Number of counties: 10,948 - -Number of places: 966 - -Population changes : 1,073 - -Total population change: -2.7% - -Population growth : 8.5% - -Unsurprisingly, Austin is still the most populous Texas city, with more than 4 million residents. Houston, with almost 3 million residents, and Dallas, with over 2.2 million, each have at least a million fewer residents than in 2000. - - -The rest of the cities of note are still in Texas, but they're increasingly losing ground. San Antonio's population is down over 5 percent over the last decade, and its city center is on the rise. Austin's population is down over 10 percent, as the city has lost more than 1 million residents since the 2001 census. The number of Austin residents living in poverty has risen to nearly 12 percent in 2010 (the latest year of available data), which isn't entirely unexpected. - -But the largest cities are seeing much larger drops — both from the population and from percentage changes. - -Population changes : - -Total population changes : - -Population growth : - -Unsurprisingly, Houston lost nearly 100,000 residents between 2000 and 2010, and the number of Austinites living in poverty has risen to nearly 12 percent. The Census reported that almost 80,000 people left Houston between 2000 and 2010. - -Cities are only part of an urban region, a fact highlighted by the fact that most of the Texas cities on this list are rural. And a significant number of those in the rural counties are also in decline. - -Texas cities with populations over 250,000: - -Population: 3,958,038 - -Number of cities: 657 - -Number of counties: 30,908 - -Number of places: 864 - -Population changes : 742 - -Total population change: 22.2% - -Population growth : 9.3% - -Unsurprisingly, Lubbock went through the worst decline, with the population falling by more than 20,000 from 2000 to 2010. Waco, which experienced the third-largest population loss, had a second consecutive drop. - -Population trends : - -Population changes : - -Population growth : - -Unsurprisingly, the largest population declines are in counties that lie largely outside the largest cities in Texas — in fact, the only other two counties with populations between 500,000 and 1 million are in Waco. - - -======================================== SAMPLE 310 ======================================== -The Department of Transport and Main Roads needs to increase the number of inspectors in NSW and increase the size of the workforce to deal with the problem, says Labor. - -NSW is one of just two states where the government has no capacity to meet the growing level of demand, including for the most serious types of traffic incidents, according to the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency. - -Leeson Barracks, located at Bannockburn in western Sydney. - -On Tuesday, NSW Fair Trading, the Department of Transport and Main Roads, and the police were locked in an attempt to make up for lost time in an annual report on the state government's performance. - -As well as warning of a possible collapse in the economy and a significant deficit, the report said the state government needed to increase its capacity for detecting and dealing with motor vehicle and other crashes. - -''I know some people are saying it's not a big deal.

(Click here to read articles on building faster sites and here to read articles about improving response speeds for site visitors.) - -It is my contention that we have no choice but to go to the extreme level of optimizing our site for speed. There are many reasons that you need this. Perhaps the main one is the amount and complexity of the data you are passing around, with the addition of data, information, and features you are providing to your visitors. These are the most critical reasons for the need to build a fast web site. - -But, more and more often, other sites are making the choice to improve their performance by decreasing costs. They are getting together with their own resources and hiring an engine that handles all their content and the way the information is accessed. This is not only a good decision, but an entirely reasonable one. For the sake of saving costs, we should be willing to go to those extremes with our clients, since we ourselves need to save money for many of our clients. But, as always, there is a difference between the two approaches that often leads to a situation that we, a client, don't like. And this is a good conversation to have when you do hire one of these engines. - -So, the first step is to talk to the client and see what they are looking for. How many pages are you trying to get per visit? How quickly can you get pages off the page? What type of data does your site process? These are important questions to ask, but the answer to them does not have to lead to this extreme level of optimization. - -There are two approaches to making your web site faster that we will talk about. One is to create a new design for your entire site, and the other is to add an engine that handles the navigation for you. We will not talk about an engine here that handles only the HTML and HTML5. We will also not talk about the difference between adding an engine, or doing more of the design work yourself through different methods. - -The design approach is one of the more common ones. Designers try to increase page load speed by thinking about how the page works, not how it looks. A good example of this is the new Google logo. A designer might think about how the new logo works for the web. - -The same might be true of how the page loads on your web site if you use a caching system built for the web. This is the approach that I would suggest using if you have a large site. (This assumes that you have no performance problem in your server, so this will need to be a new system if you are a new client doing a redesign.) - -A great benefit to this type of design approach is that it is a lot easier to implement. It might seem like there are more technical problems in creating a new design in terms of getting design elements like fonts and color for example, but there might be less trouble figuring out how to add a new engine. - -A downside is that it comes at the cost of a decrease in the amount of content you are passing around. This is especially true for larger and complicated sites that contain information and content that you can't afford to lose. For example, one way that I do a redesign is to change all the images to different color schemes. Another design approach I have adopted is using a design method called content-driven design, which is a method that I have used a lot since I have started redesigning websites.

"What's this Einstein?" Lindgren asked them, and they replied that it was a new and profound work in physics, on which Lindgren was to be the first author. Lindgren began to read it, and was so impressed that she agreed to write the introduction. - -The new book was The New Science of Life. Lindgren was the first author of an American science book to be published in its original form in Germany before it came to America—one that would soon spawn a generation of writers who would come to form today's popular science magazines, for their writing about science and literature. - -In the decades before Lindgren's entry into the limelight, science writers had been writing about ideas and concepts for a few years, especially for those writers living in the U.S. and British colonies. But Lindgren's work was not immediately translated for English-speaking readers because of its revolutionary subject matter—the notion that every living thing is made up of molecules. Scientists often talked about this "macro" theory of biology. Lindgren's book challenged it. The book's initial German title, The New Chemical Theory of Biology, suggested that every living thing had to fit into a system. When The New Chemical Theory of Life was finally published in England in 1894, the title was changed to The Life of Molecules: - -Every living thing must live in a molecule, or be nothing, because every living thing is the actual expression of chemical action. - -And so the title stuck. - -For those of us living in more recent decades, the title of Lindgren's book has stuck with us, too (see: the cover of the September 1999 issue of New Scientist). It's hard to imagine today what the editors of New Scientist of the time thought it meant, but back then, there was no such thing as a scientific journal publishing such a radical concept. "I thought it was great," said John Maddox, who was an editor on the project in 1898. "The book was a masterpiece. It's a book the editors didn't even dare to imagine doing." - -Lindgren, a scientist and mathematician at the university of Uppsala, was known for presenting ideas with wit and a flair for the dramatic. She was also known for her sharp criticism of her contemporaries, whom she referred to as "neoliberals," or the "neo-mercantilists," for their support of protectionism and for their opposition to protectionism. - -One of the major themes in Lindgren's book is that the idea of "life" is not a fixed entity, but rather a product of a dynamic field known as "molecular interaction." When a molecule like DNA "binds" with a protein, a chemical reaction takes place, generating a living cell of some kind. These processes happen at the very microscopic level, and they take place over and over again. - -In an 1885 debate, physicist Charles James Keir made a point about "molecular interaction" by comparing the chemical bond to a rope and a tree. When the tree grows, the rope must be maintained, and so it does. In this example, Keir implied that the bond is a physical substance with "bound" qualities, not some kind of mental thing. In Lindgren's case: - -If a human being is to live, he must take a part of himself and make of him what he will, and must be in effect a chemical agent. Whence comes that mysterious attraction which compels his blood to circulate and makes his nerves to react, and causes his liver to produce gastric juices and his kidneys to produce urine; and all these things without which life is impossible. The great principle which binds them all together is the constant operation of chemistry. - -This is a big concept, and one that Lindgren didn't quite get right at the time she wrote The New Science of Life. Her words, according to the book's own account, were: "The life process involves the creation from water of the vital principles of life itself from one -======================================== SAMPLE 313 ======================================== -The United Nations, on the other hand, is on the frontlines of the most pressing battle raging across the planet. It's a battle that needs to be fought in a spirit of humility. And it's a battle that is about to be fought on a world stage with one of its most powerful institutions. - -The U.N. has a role to play in a new effort to end mass atrocity crimes against humanity, and it has the unique opportunity to demonstrate leadership on this crucial issue. The U.N. should seize the opportunity to take a leadership role on this important issue. - -At the forefront of this initiative is United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein (Arabic: رضي الله عند رحمه الله) who leads the U.N.'s Commission on International Justice and Peace. Mr. Hussein is a courageous, committed and tireless activist committed to protecting the most vulnerable and vulnerable among us. With this leadership role comes enormous responsibility, which includes taking a leadership role on this issue. - -The atrocities continue in Syria (which the U.N. has designated a "country of concern"). More than 350,000 people have been killed in three and a half years of conflict, including more than 40,000 civilians. The war has led to the displacement of three million Syrians to neighboring countries. - -As Zeid writes in this month's report, "In almost four years of bloody conflict there has been no ceasefire, no political process and no agreement on fundamental rights. In the last few days, the Syrian government has made a tragic decision to make its people pay the ultimate price in a battle for their very lives. It is time for the world to stand with the Syrian people." - -The Assad regime's brutal actions – and the brutality of the opposition it supports – are the two obvious causes of the crisis. As the U.N.'s Special Representative of the Secretary-General stated in a statement yesterday following a meeting with Assad and his military, the Syrian government is using chemical weapons "against its own people with impunity because of continued and systematic international silence." - -There is also the question of regional support for the Assad regime, including the continued arming, financial and military support by Gulf countries. - -The United States and other countries are also complicit in Syria's atrocities. The U.S. is a party to the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), which bans the use of chemical weapons. The Trump administration has shown little regard for international norms by not enforcing the CWC to the letter after the regime used chemical weapons in an attack in Idlib earlier this month. The U.S. also provided Assad's regime with non-lethal assistance, including anti-tank weapons, targeting assistance and intelligence assistance – all in violation of the CWC. - -And the regime has not been abandoned even after the chemical weapons attack on April 4, 2017. The regime continues to bomb civilians and rebel held neighborhoods in Aleppo, killing and injuring thousands of civilians, in violation of international law. - -The U.S. should be leading the U.N. to address these realities. In particular, the U.S. should be using its leverage to end arms sales to Syrian President Bashar al Assad (though Congress can still hold the Obama administration responsible). The U.S. should also be working to ensure that arms do not get to jihadists, al Qaeda and Daesh. - -There is also the question of the regime's use of chemical weapons against its own people. Assad's government has a long history of attacking, gassing, and killing its own citizens, including children. According to the UN, between April 2011 and January 2014, the Syrian government launched between 8,000 and 18,000 attacks using chlorine gas on residential, governmental and military targets. The Syrian government used poisonous gas against its own civilians even after the agreement in 2013 under which it agreed to destroy Syria's chemical weapons. The U.N. investigated that attack on the Khan Sheikhoun town and found multiple locations of toxic attacks. - -The U.S. must not be silent in the face of this heinous war crime, or it will ensure that the Assad regime is able to continue its brutality against its own people. In this context, the Trump administration's decision to strike Shayrat airbase in northern Syria by cruise missiles after the regime fired more than 75 rockets into a residential area makes no sense. The U.S. is only able to take action against military targets because it has made it clear that it would only take action if it believed the Assad regime was using chemical weapons to commit these crimes. - -The Trump administration's actions have made it clear that the Assad regime must be held accountable for the chemical attacks on its own people. The actions were also in line with international law and international norms. Moreover, U.S. actions to degrade the war-making capabilities of the Assad regime would not change much if the U.S. -======================================== SAMPLE 314 ======================================== -For this episode of The Game Informer Show, we sit down with the director of the critically acclaimed title, Gears of War: Judgment.

This video is really, really funny. What's funny is how hilarious it is that this cat is so upset he's throwing up his own poop, but I guess when he sees poop in his own cat's mouth, he gets a bit overzealous. The video is a bit longer and contains a few different cat videos because this cat is being funny and funny can be offensive. But that makes sense, in-fact, I did think the cat was a bomb when I first saw it, but then I thought about it for a moment and realized that this cat has a lot more to worry about than a poop bomb, and so he really was not. - -Anyway, this cat is probably a very sensitive one. He probably thinks people take good care of him because he looks like he does, when in fact they don't. You'd be amazed how many people look good and seem to love dogs but are very stingy when it comes to their own pets. Or when animals in general don't seem to get taken care of, since they often don't seem to worry about the poor things too much. This video shows how sensitive this cat is. As the cat gets more and more frustrated, he begins throwing up. - -I don't think this cat wants his poop to be in peoples mouths. Maybe the whole fighting thing might have started to make him anxious? I just think that this cat has just been through too much. It's amazing how much stress can kill a person mentally, or it can even kill a person physically, especially if someone is overly stressed and anxious. - -That's all I've got for now.

The Irish, who were 2-10 all-time against Michigan State in 2012, beat the Spartans 45-28.

On offense. On the offense. Then, he walked into the room. But as he walked in, he had no idea that, at 8:20 a.m., there would be one thing more he said than he would have done otherwise: "Thank you for coming in." - -After Kelly's speech, the media had already begun filing inside, and it was obvious that the news of Notre Dame's first 10-win season in 35 years was still with them. But there were also cameras and reporters milling around outside practice -- including the cameraman who was right behind Kelly in the locker room -- and no one had any idea what they would actually say. - -It's a lesson the Irish coach will have to learn again in 2013. On that warm September morning last year, Kelly had been fired, on the same day that Michigan State lost a 28-21 game to Ohio State. - -On Saturday, the next day, with Notre Dame's first-year coach, Brian Kelly, now in charge of his own program, it was clear from the get-go that those five hours, which included practice, lunch that included a full-plate buffet (chicken salad with tomato, provolone, broccoli and feta), and then more lunch, would make for the best 10 hours he had enjoyed in a while.

He says the University is working to "promote a culture based on the pursuit of truth," and encourages all students to "come to understand the differences." - -"We are a diverse community — and a multiracial one, and a multicultural one — and I think it is important to show the world how diverse our community is," DeGiulio told The Daily Targum. "When the majority of our community is made up of people who are not like you, being kind or respectful to them shouldn't be a requirement of you becoming a part of this community." - -DeGiulio said the University has been working on the new policy for about a year. The goal, he said, is to provide safe spaces for students to learn about "the diverse experiences, emotions and viewpoints of people from all over the world." - -Some students have expressed concern that the move will lead to students using pronouns other than he, she and it. - -"People have a difficult time coming to grips with gender-neutral pronouns and the implications that they have for personal identity and freedom of conscience. This is not a solution; rather, this is a dangerous step backward," said Joshua K. Schank, an associate professor of sociology and women's and gender studies at Northwestern University. "It is also very difficult to know exactly how many people will be able to transition or how many students will actually use these pronouns." - -The Daily Targum reached out to University of Maryland spokespeople multiple times to ask them about this issue, however, they declined to comment. - -"We are trying to keep it as neutral and safe as possible because it is really important for our students to be respectful and kind to others," DeGiulio says. - -The University of Maryland has also come under fire in the past for not being inclusive enough with LGBT students. In 2009, the University of Maryland became the first public institution on the Deep South to allow a gay students group to form on campus. However, at the time, students did not have a space on campus for students to use a restroom that matched their gender identity. In 2014, a student group began a campaign to create a transgender-inclusive restroom on campus, though the university refused to open the space for their group, citing privacy concerns. The group subsequently sued the University. - -"These are huge victories for equality and the American civil rights movement; it just shows what happens when you stand up and put your shoulder to the wheel for your freedom and your rights and the rights of others," Josh Kuss, executive director of the Maryland Transgender Advocacy Coalition, told The Daily Targum. "My hope is that people who were afraid to get involved come out in droves now and be a part of the future." - -DeGiulio told The Daily Targum that the University has no plans to discontinue the use of gender-neutral names, and that a committee has been set up to determine the best way to incorporate transgender students into the University's housing plans. - -DeGiulio says the campus has long prided itself on diversity and inclusion, and this new policy is one of the many efforts the University has made to "encourage the campus community to embrace the diversity it represents." - -"In many ways it's a cultural shift," he said. "People are becoming aware of and aware of the cultural impact that they have on this campus, as they walk through the doors of the campus that they walk into every single day." - -DeGiulio said there have been only two cases in which this happened on the campus, at the Maryland Center for Student Development and at Frederick Douglass College in Baltimore. - -DeGiulio added that the University recognizes "that there are those who may wish to use gender-neutral pronouns; however, we believe that the University should protect and respect the rights of everyone." - -The American Psychological Association has clarified the issue of gender. According to the APA, gender can refer to one's "self-concept" or self -======================================== SAMPLE 316 ======================================== -Trevor Noah's Daily Show is finally making its way to the iPad. - -As reported by the Verge, the "Daily Show" is coming to the iPad on April 7th, but only for a limited time. - -The stand-alone show is not available on the website.

A woman is "disrespectful" to him if she fails to bow the knee to him in deference before him. She is "disrespectful" when she makes his every syllable the subject of a rebuke and a whisper, when she refuses to kneel. - -You don't call her a "sir," you call her a "missus." And she's always a "mistress," because, you are told, no one should ever treat a man as though he were in fact a woman. - -This was the thought process behind the idea of the "Lady Act" in the late 19th century, which allowed women into the work force when they were not married, and also allowed men to become professional men without being ordained priests. - -The idea was that the very idea that men have to be priests to be considered full-fledged men is itself a kind of misogyny. If I am going to be called "Mr. Smith" by men I just can't afford to be thought of as a woman because women are seen by society as objects. And if I am going to be called a woman by men, I have to treat them as the same level of respect I would to a man, because, after all, who am I to be able to look in their eyes, to know if I am worthy of their respect? And if I am to be thought of as the equal of a man, I have to keep my distance. - -This was the thinking behind the "Lady Act" in the late 19th century, which allowed women into the work force when they were not married, and also allowed men to become professional men without being ordained priests. - -It was that level of distance from the man that was the key. - -A woman who is too close to a man she wants to take under her wing is "disrespectful." A woman who does not keep her distance is, perhaps, "disrespectful." But the more contemptuous that woman is of the man she wants to entrust herself to, the more "respectful" she is to him. That's it. That's the deal. - -In fact, this is how much this country still acts in 2016. - -This is why Donald Trump feels the need to tell you that "there's somebody that sleeps with [his wife], and it's nobody's business but my business." - -That "nobody's business but his business," I understand. But it's also a business. Or a family. Or a workplace. That "nobody's business but his business" is another layer of social and political meaning that needs to be peeled away from our politics, as well as what it means to have a family. The fact that Trump has a line of children he wants to talk about when talking about his business should not make a woman who wants to run his company more "disrespectful." - -And the fact that he thinks it is "nobody's business" but his if he wants to talk about it means that the woman running his company should be treated with the same level of respect as he does, no? - -In the world of the great and the good, it is assumed that the "disrespectful" female is a woman whom the male leader of your country would never dream of taking up an official position within or beyond the company of the male lead. - -In the world of the great and the good, that's what a "mistress" is, and she is not a woman unless she is a woman in a marriage, unless she is a member of the church, unless she is a woman in professional or institutional life. So the idea that a woman, while technically a woman, can be just as disrespectful toward a man as she is to a man is ludicrous. - -In the world of the great and the good, men are considered "disgusting -======================================== SAMPLE 317 ======================================== -"I have one and one is all that matters": the difference between a 'real' artist and a 'fake' artist - -By Tom Doyle - -6 May 2013 - -What are your chances of finding an authentic artist when it comes to your art? We all want to be an artist, whether it is a hobby, an occupation or a serious hobby. We all want to be a real artist, but what is going to define what a truly great artist is – something that is real to the core? - -There has been growing interest in the role of art and visual arts in education, both at a secondary school and at university level. The idea that there is a strong relationship between good education and art, as well as the role of artists in the creative life or economy, is not new. In fact, artists, such as Thomas Hodgskin in 1662, have been known to contribute to the formation and evolution of ideas. - -What is new, however, is that the art museum collection in the UK, particularly at the British Museum and Tate galleries, now includes a much greater range of works from non-professional artisans, from those who work, at least in part, as artists – not professional artists – the 'real' artists. - -The Museum of Modern Art, in New York, and the Tate galleries in London also boast more than 20,000 paintings, sculptures and drawings. The Museum of London boasts over 15,000. - -The first British art museum, the Imperial Academy, was opened in London in 1818. In the 19th century, new institutions were being set up such as the Guggenheim, the Tate Modern and the British Academy for the Creative Arts. Between 1915 and 1916, these became part of the British Museum and the Guggenheim, respectively. They were the first British institutions to acquire works by emerging and established artists. - -In the past 20 years, many museums have grown in size, and the number of works that are on view has increased. The number of art galleries also greatly increased, with major museums such as the British Museum becoming major centres for acquiring art. - -For many artists, their careers are based on gaining their living for their art, and the more the more the greater the pressure to produce. A 'real' art history museum, therefore, needs many of the artists who have contributed to British art to be in it, and it needs as a museum the artists who will be contributing in the future. This, however, is not what many galleries are doing. The artists who do not fit, for whatever reason, into a gallery context do not fit inside the collection of the gallery. Some galleries continue to hold works from artists such as Frank Stella to show for those not in the galleries; but it is important to understand that gallery curators and curators rarely meet, and generally never interact with, artists who are in the majority of galleries. - -In terms of collecting, the Museum of Modern Art is very interested in what it calls "cultural property," which includes paintings, sculptures, drawings, etc. It doesn't have an inventory, is not in contact with its collectors, and so does not have access to works. - -While some galleries have a relationship with their collectors, it is in a very tenuous relationship, perhaps akin to a private relationship. Many of the works are held for those not in the gallery but who might wish to have one. In the case of a gallery, this usually means for a work by an emerging artist. Many gallery collectors cannot afford to buy works on the open market in the way that wealthy collectors can. - -Many galleries take on an attitude of 'the people buying it are our art collectors'; whereas an open market is when the public can purchase the work. - -This, of course, isn't really how auction houses run their business, and the idea that galleries are 'just art collectors' has been demonstrated to be a load of hooey as recently as February. It is not just galleries who do not have access to art, but also those who wish to purchase work; and when they do, the money generally goes into the coffers of the gallery. The gallery's sole aim is to make money from sales, and the fact that many galleries sell to the public and have galleries as distributors of work means that some things can only be exhibited in the gallery. A good example of this is the recent sale of a photograph of David Bowie taken in 1969 by photographer Terry O'Neill to the Royal Academy, which goes on show in the Tate Modern's photography exhibition, 'Beyond the Space Age'. - -There are many galleries who, like the Guggenheim, don't have art galleries, but who have galleries as distributors of work that is also used as the basis for works by artists who are not in their catalogue. This is a further example of how we as a society have lost sight of just how important an artist is and how that artist's place is in the context of a collection -======================================== SAMPLE 318 ======================================== -MEXICO CITY -- In one-and-a-half hours, the Mexicans will decide the nation's next president.

An important step as the HIV community seeks to have our voices heard on the national and international health spectrum, the Position Statement reflects what we have decided to say publicly regarding current patient issues regarding HIV care. While it does not represent an official stance of AAAAAAM, it is an attempt to offer a consistent perspective from the global HIV research, care, and advocacy community. - -The Position Statement summarizes the concerns about HIV care articulated by people living with HIV, care providers and other professionals at AAAAAAM's Annual Meeting. "The primary complaint is the lack of access to and quality of care for people living with HIV," says Michael DeMeo, PhD, senior editor for AAAAAAM's AIDS Journal. "A lack of clarity at every turn from the U.S. government, international donors, and individual patients' organizations, has delayed patients' access to life-saving care." - -The document goes on to describe a lack of quality information regarding the risks of not receiving effective HIV therapy. Patients have been forced to spend time and money researching medications that are not approved by their insurance and cannot be given to others, thereby putting their health in jeopardy. A lack of knowledge about HIV treatment may also deter young people from taking their medications and delaying progression of the disease. - -Furthermore, the AAAI says that the current system of prescribing HIV drugs is inefficient and dangerous, leaving patients high and low risk in a precarious position with all the consequences of being on HIV meds and the consequences of not being on them. "HIV medications are highly effective at reducing the risk of transmission and have tremendous potential to alleviate the severe illness of people living with HIV," adds Jean-Pierre Després, MD, MPH, director, program evaluation and implementation, and chief, Clinical and Research, Department of Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, AIDS Clinical Trials Network, National Institutes of Health (NIH). "However, many patients are not in a position to choose which medications they need, or cannot afford, so we need to change the way we prescribe medications and improve the management and monitoring of HIV medicine and care in the U.S. and globally." - -In the past, people living with HIV have been the subject of stigma, racism and discrimination. It is the AAAAAAM's goal to address these issues by addressing what are sometimes called the "pink plates." The pink plates are the "hidden costs," those costs that the health care system may not have included in the bill of services, and it may not recognize or pay, and that the quality of the health care does not improve when a patient is paying for it himself. - -"HIV/AIDS care in the U.S. is largely being delivered through the fragmented systems created to fulfill the federal government's mandates." says Joanne R. Fiedler, MB, PhD, Director, Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, AIDS Clinical Trials Network. "The U.S. government mandates that the same health care system in every state, at the same times of day, pay for the same same type of care in all states for the same patients. But not all health care plans treat a patient with HIV exactly alike. Some are more accepting of a person living with HIV, others are not. Many times, the provider must deal with discrimination and bias. For a patient with HIV, these two major causes of non-treatment and discrimination require our collective focus and collaboration to be made clear." - -The Position Statement concludes with a call for the inclusion of the experiences and perspectives of people living with HIV, their loved ones and allies -======================================== SAMPLE 319 ======================================== -This report contains a description of the characteristics of the population, the level of fertility and of net international migration, its age structure, economic activity, educational achievement, social participation and political engagement. This information is presented for the OECD countries as a whole and for the key indicators of the population of them. These include the age structure of the population, its fertility in relation to its birth rate, the sex ratio, the distribution of the age groups, its gender gap, its labour force participation rate and its income distribution profile. A description of the methodology is given. - -Table on the level and characteristics of the population, age structure, fertility and net international migration (migration) for each country of the OECD - -Age structure and fertility - -The level and distribution of the working age population are determined by the age structure of the population. These include the average age of men and women, their expected numbers of children, their ages at which they would have their first birth, and the age difference between the age of their first birth and that of their expected sex partner(s). The average age of women is 15.3 years for OECD countries and 16.8 years for non-OECD countries. For women of child bearing age, the average age is 16.5 years. The proportion of women is higher in Nordic countries (19.3 and 20.8 respectively) with a male participation rate of around 80 percent. In comparison the OECD average is 19.9 percent for men and 30.9 percent for women. By 2064 the proportion of women will exceed the number of men in OECD countries to a greater extent than in non-OECD countries and non-European countries. There is a gender gap in the OECD (15.1 percent in 2015 and 16.6 percent by 2064). The gap is much more pronounced with respect to the expected first birth age of both sexes and the total number of children (16.4 versus 14.4 and 8.2 respectively). - -The age profile of the workers in the population is also influenced by their age. A higher proportion of younger workers are found in countries with high fertility (low estimated fertility for women) as well as low immigration (low numbers of immigration migrants). The age pyramid shows that the working age population is most concentrated in Nordic countries (Germany, Sweden, Austria, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic and Slovakia). The age profile of the population in Germany is strongly influenced by the high level of fertility which contributes to an increasing ratio of the population of women aged 25-34 to that of men aged 30-34 (the ratio reaches 17.0 in 2015). - -When fertility is low, the male participation rate is still high (around 80-90 percent) even though the working age population is relatively lower. This is a common pattern in Nordic countries, as the gender gap in this case is larger than in the OECD as it is. Thus a higher proportion of women are found in these countries and the gender gap increases to around the same levels as the OECD. The level of gender participation also depends on the average number of babies per woman. For women, the highest participation rates are in Nordic countries (such as Sweden and Norway) where almost 80 percent of women have their first child before the age of 34 years and in the Czech Republic where around 70 percent of women have a baby before their 22nd birthday. The lowest levels of gender participation are found in the United States, France and Spain. - -The level of net international migration has a considerable impact on the composition of the population of a country. When the level of net migration is high, the composition of the population reflects the age profile. For this reason the composition of the population in Germany is heavily influenced by the ageing population and the low mortality and is relatively low in contrast to the OECD average. The ratio between the aged working age population and the under-60 age population is the highest in Nordics countries (Germany, the Czech Republic and Sweden), in Nordic countries including Japan and the Philippines with a ratio of approximately 2.2. The age gap of the population is relatively low in Japan and the Philippines (less than 10 percentage points), in the United Kingdom with a ratio of approximately two (2.0) and in Spain with a ratio of 1.86. In the United States the number of population and its aged population is high which contributes to the low ratio between the ratio of old to young people and people of working age. In comparison, these three countries with relatively high aging populations account for approximately two-thirds of the total population and have a ratio of roughly 1.5. - -The ratio between the age groups has more modest levels in Nordic countries (e.g. Sweden) and is significantly lower in the United Kingdom, Estonia, Mexico, Australia and Australia than in the OECD countries. The ratio of working age to the population aged 35 and over is about two in the United States, Denmark, Norway and Germany. The ratio of the population in the middle age group to the population aged between 35 and 39 and the -======================================== SAMPLE 320 ======================================== -SUMMARY - -A new method for the creation of high performance and reliable hybrid semiconductors has been developed by physicists from ETH and the Leibniz Institute of Solid State Research (WZ) in Germany. This method will help to greatly increase hybrid semiconductor performance while offering great power and mobility. The key aspect of the work is to produce superconductors with a highly uniform and homogeneous distribution of the magnetic dipoles and hence lower distortion. Furthermore, in comparison with other methods, we use a single, highly conductive material in high porosity, so high power devices using the new hybrid semiconductor materials will be even simpler and thus less delicate. - -The most outstanding feature of this work is that it was performed using high-temperature solid state chemistry, which has so far been impossible to develop for highly magnetised materials. Previous hybrid semiconductor materials have had to rely on the presence of a small amount of superconductive material inside the material to drive magnetic reversals in order to achieve high superconductivity. But this tiny amount of superconductor reduces the size of the material and therefore the energy density of a material, making it very difficult to scale up to extremely large sizes. By contrast, the very uniform distribution of the magnetic dipole magnetic phases in the new work allows much better performance and thus lower operating temperature. This results in a much lower cost and hence lower costs of the new materials. The combination of such high performance and high mobility will also require the development of high performance electronics for the very large applications.<|endoftext|>New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady did not practice again Thursday because of back spasms.

With about 8,100 students, UH is one of the largest campus student bodies in the country. - -The UH Independent, the student-run school newspaper, is backing a system of ranked-choice voting on the November ballot that would add more than 600,000 voter ranks to the already existing number of 4,290 ranked-choice-preferential ballots (RCP) which are distributed in every student government election. (READ: Why Ranked Choice Voting works) - -The new system would give independent candidates a more meaningful opportunity to be elected by allowing voters who haven't indicated a preference in the first round of balloting to rank their choices in order of preference. It would also give all voters a chance to determine who represents the student body at the University of Houston. - -UH Independent Editorial Board member Robert Niehoff stated in an editorial published Dec. 8, 2015, that the UH's third-party option as ranked-choice voting is one of his "top three ideas" the newspaper has to improve election administration. - -"Ranked choice voting would allow multiple-choice answers and even more candidates on the ballot, helping us have a more representative voting body," he said. - -Third-party candidate for UH student body president - -Niehoff also stressed in the editorial that the endorsement by the student-run newspaper did not amount to an institutional backing of any candidate. - -He noted that the support of the Independent's editorial board has nothing to do with any individual being endorsed by the board. - -"As we have said before, we do not wish for candidates to be endorsed by our paper, and are not seeking to do so," Niehoff said. - -He noted that the endorsement was not an automatic endorsement of any candidate for president. Rather, it was a decision made by the editorial board as an effort to bring new ideas to election administration. - -"We feel that this could result in a stronger election system," he said. "Students, regardless of political party affiliation, have the power to rank as many candidates for elected office as they want, but it can be beneficial to rank-order them to make sure that you make your best candidate win." - -The board endorsed candidates at least 30 times prior to this year's election, starting from the presidential election in 2014. - -The newspaper endorsed President Judy Genshaft in a Nov. 28 editorial, as well as Sen.

They had just gotten up to attend a party on their front porch, where they'd been enjoying themselves, when they were ambushed by four men. Two of the attackers opened fire on the two women, killing them both. Then, while one of the women was still trying to fight back, the man was shot in the neck, killing him. - -In the midst of the attack, a third suspect shot and killed himself. In the immediate aftermath of this tragedy and the investigation that followed, I was asked by family friends to assist with a local police and homicide task force. After some time, when I saw the case for what it was, I decided to go public with this tragedy. - -In the weeks and months since then I've learned first-hand of the challenges that law enforcement face when they go out and interview the public. Many witnesses are initially reluctant to talk to police, because they fear retribution from friends and neighbors, as well as because they don't know their legal rights. Others are reluctant to talk to police because they've found their trust in law enforcement to be misplaced, whether because of questionable practices or a perceived lack of transparency when it comes to official policy. - -What you will find in my first book, Making a Murderer: The Case Against Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey was the stories of these witnesses and others, many of whom are now speaking out about the trauma they experienced, as well as the fear and frustration they have carried with them for a long time and continue to carry into this new century. - - -My hope is to help fill in some of the gaps in the information we currently have for some of these men and women, by showing the rest of us that the system of justice can work and can help bring these two men and two women home. - -For my own part, it was a long journey for me to get to where we are today. At the outset of the course, the director of the criminal justice unit at the University of Wisconsin-Madison suggested that, in the name of the students and their families, I should begin this course with an essay on one of the men's and women's stories. So, on February 6, I wrote a short, brief essay, called "A Casebook for the Killer Next Door." As I wrote, I was overwhelmed with emotion and thought about the many ways in which Steven Avery, Brendan Dassey, their families, and all those who were affected could benefit from the perspective of witnesses who knew them. I wrote with an eye toward making this short essay as accessible as possible for those who wouldn't normally be a part of the legal system, and also for those who might take exception to a story or argument that I was making about the men and women who lived in this small town in Wisconsin. It was clear from my experiences and research from previous years that many police departments are extremely reluctant to interview people who have lived in similar communities, a phenomenon that I hope I could help change in my writing. - - -From the outset of this work on Making a Murderer, I've seen tremendous passion from family and friends, and from those around the world who support the families of Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey. I have also read a number of blogs that have questioned the reliability and fairness of my sources and have gone on record to assert that I am in direct opposition to the legal system in this case. To them, I can say that my personal experiences have inspired me in the right way, and that my work on the Making a Murderer series has been the result of deep reflection and an investigation that included many hours and often many days spent with many individuals. I have also learned that our public institutions have far to go to become more transparent and accountable to the people they serve. - -On October 22, 2014, in the wake of the release of the Netflix documentary series, I posted an article in The New York Times Magazine which summarized my experience in the criminal justice academy. I am in full support of the judicial system, public servants, and our entire legal system, including the media, and for that I hold nothing but high regard. I would just like to be able to talk about, at least occasionally, a few more of the people who live in the same small town in Wisconsin that I grew up in: Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey. It's clear to me that most journalists are ignorant about the law, the justice process, and the people that they come across. What you will find in my first book, Making a Murderer: The Case Against Steven Avery and Brendan Dassey was the stories of these witnesses and others, many of whom are now speaking out about the trauma they experienced, as well as the fear and frustration they have carried with them for a long time and continue to carry into this new century. - -I thank those who took the time -======================================== SAMPLE 323 ======================================== -Image copyright PA Image caption Police said Mr Toms was stabbed to death outside his home - -A man accused of killing a man after a row outside a nightclub has been found guilty of murder. - -Andrew Toms, 22, from Ballymena, was stabbed outside the Club Inferno complex in Belfast. - -The Old Bailey heard a trial in which the jury deliberated for five days before finding him guilty. - -Toms, from north Belfast, was originally said to be suffering from a psychiatric disorder at the time. - -The 22-year-old, who did not apply for bail, has been charged with murder and other charges including possessing a dagger which caused grievous bodily harm. - -In May, he was jailed for 12 years for stabbing a father of four to death at a house party in north Belfast. - -Sentencing Toms at the Old Bailey, Mr Justice Jay said: "At that time there were problems with the defendant in relation to his mental health issues and he had had some episodes. - -In 2009, Mr Jay said, Toms, from Clogher, had had a mental breakdown after which his mother warned him to stay away from her home. - -In 2012, while the court heard the court was investigating Toms' mental health, he was found at a police station on Thursday. - -He had apparently thrown away his passport for an extended period of time. - -'Struggling to come to terms with reality' - -The court was told Toms had attended a police station on Tuesday morning after taking a taxi to the PSNI's station in the city on Tuesday night where police found his body. - -Det Insp Sean Price said at the time: "The defendant was suffering from delusions at the time and was struggling to come to terms with reality and his actions, as is clear to anyone who attended or interacted with this man last night and for many months prior." - -Image copyright PA Image caption Andrew Toms stabbed a man to death on Monday - -The trial was told Toms had told officers: "I feel like I'm living through my own life."<|endoftext|>Fully assembled 4-player games on an Arduino Due - -This tutorial is all about how to assemble a fully assembled 8-player games system on an Arduino Due, using only the components available on the board. You'll get a fully functioning game (without dice), and how to assemble the game, with step-by-step instructions and some assembly videos. - -Getting Started - -We're going to need the following items: - -Arduino Due - -12V 5a power supply - -A display that runs on power - -Arduino cable (or any other cable that you don't mind removing) - -Power jack - -4 "P" connectors - -24 button pads - -Possibly other components. The "P" connectors may also be soldered to the button pads - -You may also want to buy a 4x4 wooden version of the display, if you're going to be painting your boards. I picked mine up for €5 at ebay. - -Some time ago, you may also have needed to buy and install some "AoB" (Assemble to Block) jumper wires, which you'll need to remove once you're finished (see below). I suggest you use a small amount of flux-cored solder to do that; it's not a huge amount of work. - -Getting Everything Together - -I'm going to assume you've done the wiring step, that you're comfortable with wiring, and/or that you've read through the first six steps of this guide. If you have been thinking about this, you should have already. - -You'll need to plug in your Arduino using the "AA" connection, and plug in your display using the "DP" connection. You will also need to connect your USB host cable to your machine (see the step-by-step instructions below), and plug in the power supply. - -If you're following the "Simple" tutorial, you will need to connect the "AA" connection to Pin 12 (A1), and Pin 11 (A2) to Pin 2 (A5). This is because if you're already using a display like the Uno, there won't be any pins left for any other kind of display. If you choose to use the "Easy" tutorial above, you'll need to connect the "AA" connection to Pin 8 (B4), and Pin 6 (B9) to Pin 5. - -Using our simple example, let's say you want to use this board for a "2-player" version of the "Space Invaders" arcade game. We'll want to connect P1 ("A0") and P2 ("A1") to "Pin 1 (A0) and Pin 8 (B6)". So we'll be using P1 ("A0") and P2 ("A1)", and so -======================================== SAMPLE 324 ======================================== -The world's oceans are a lot bigger than we thought. The ocean holds more than 200 trillion tons of water compared to the 25 trillion tons we thought we had, scientists say in a study published in the journal Science. - -That would make the oceans 10 times as big as the United States. That's quite a bit more water than, say, China, which holds 4.6 trillion tons of water. - -Researchers analyzed 40 years of ocean measurements, and their results came up with the estimate of the water mass. The estimate depends on how scientists measure the ocean's density (how much water is concentrated in something compared to a dry desert), and not on how much water actually gets into the ocean. - -In the study, they note that the world's oceans store only 6 percent of the world's energy but take up 90 percent of the globe's surface. - -Oceanographers have observed an increase in water masses in recent years, especially since 1984. During that time, oceanographer Jeff Masters and oceanographer J.P. Ohlsson published a study indicating that the ocean's water contents have risen by 516 trillion liters, or 6 percent, over the past 30 years. At that rate, if the oceans continue to add water, that would mean that, one day, the seas might exceed 1.1 kilometers (0.6 miles) thick, they say. - -Oceanographers have been studying the amount of water in the oceans because, at least in theory, understanding this vital force could save us from sea level rise. - -Scientists measure the amount of water in various places by pulling out a small sample and measuring its density. - -We have known about the water in the Atlantic Ocean for some time, but it was too big to be captured by a ship. - -In the late 1970s, researchers figured out how to sink a small submersible, remotely operated by Masters's team, into the Atlantic. In 1986, they successfully sent it to a depth of 500 meters (1,640 feet), where it measured the water at a depth of 2,829 meters (9,072 feet). (That's a full 4 kilometers, or 2.5 miles). - -The ocean has been getting larger since then because of the warming oceans. Since 1985, the water around each island has been getting warmer — and that expansion of water has also produced an increase in global temperature, which can in turn cause the oceans to get warmer. - -Since 1986, scientists have been able to get better measurements of the water around islands. - -That same year, oceanographer J.P. Ohlsson and others published the first estimate of all the masses currently in the world's oceans. At the time, Ohlsson also estimated the entire water sphere had a volume of more than 700,000 cubic kilometers (250,000 cubic miles). - -The problem with oceanographers' prior estimates was that they came up with the number based on measurements of densities, rather than on water volume. - -In the new study, Ohlsson and colleagues at the U.S. Geological Survey analyzed data from the Global Oceans Atlas (GOA) and discovered that the water masses had actually increased by around 1 trillion liters (0.0001 percent). - -They conclude, "At least a portion of the added water is going somewhere else — either into the deeper ocean or over land. The most likely contribution is water that's now over land." - -Read More: - -Scientists say this is where Antarctica's biggest glaciers will someday melt - -Scientists say the Arctic is losing sea ice faster than expected - -As the U.S. tries to reduce carbon dioxide in the air, it's turning to coal-fired power plants - -Scientists just realized humans have contributed almost all the carbon dioxide in the world since pre-industrial times<|endoftext|>(RNS) One in four evangelical Protestants do not endorse same-sex marriage, according to a new study released on Tuesday (April 15). - -The poll, conducted by the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI), asked 1,016 evangelical Protestant pastors what percentage of their congregations support marriage equality. - -Of that total, only 28 percent answered "a great deal" or "fair amount" of their congregants support marriage for lesbians, gay men and bisexuals. (That would mean that 19 percent are in favor of all of these relationships and another 16 percent are in favor of only one particular type of relationship.) - -A full 76 percent said they don't have a lot of their congregants support marriage for gay people. - -"The data shows that it's not just that evangelicals differ on the issue," said PRRI President and CEO Robert P. Jones in a statement ahead of the new study release. "They differ sharply in what they think marriage means." - -The study does point to two bright spots for evangelicals supporting gay marriage.

But it won't come cheap: the standard iPhone 6s starts at $649 and can go up to $949, and there's an even more extreme option: the new $649 6s Plus. - -Optical image sensor - -The 6s (and 6s Plus) uses an optical image sensor (OIS) that can detect object, motion, and distance. These sensors are known for their ability to focus quickly, and this camera's is just as fast - it's able to focus and capture pictures on even the fastest moving objects. - -This lens system combined with a laser autofocus system enables extremely accurate focus on just about everything, including people, faces, and small objects like coins or pencils. With the iPhone 6s, we've improved autofocus accuracy by 50%, making it so that subjects no longer move while you're focusing on them. There's also a new mode that detects your subject and lets you instantly shoot a photo using Live Photos as a bonus! - -A special feature called Face ID - -Face ID is a new biometric authentication system and one of the technologies that was used in the TrueDepth camera in the iPhone 7. It uses an infrared camera for depth image information and facial recognition technology to verify your identity. It is incredibly accurate and uses infrared light, unlike the typical contrast based techniques we use with touch sensors. That means the iPhone's camera will be able to detect objects around you even better than it does when it reads your fingerprints. The camera's sensitivity is even better, helping it see faces even in bright daylight, for more advanced scanning and identification. - -New Camera - -The iPhone's camera has improved for an exciting new year, with a new 12-megapixel iSight sensor featuring higher resolution and wider f/2.2 lens. Additionally, you'll have more control over shutter speed and ISO. And because this camera is so easy to use with Siri, you now have a better way to take stunning shots with just your voice. To access more of these camera settings, go into the settings menu under viewfinder. - -Touch ID - -Touch ID is a new biometric authentication technology that adds a touch sensor to the iPhone's home button. When combined with the Touch ID sensor, it's possible to unlock the phone with your face, hands, or face prints. - -Touch ID works both with the Touch ID sensor and when Face ID is enabled. It is fast, convenient, and secure — and unlike a password, it is never sent to Apple. This is the only phone with Touch ID, so when Face ID is enabled, it is only available through Touch ID and Touch ID is secure. - -A big leap forward in camera technology - -Apple took a major step forward in the quality of iPhone cameras with the introduction of the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, delivering the best smartphone camera ever. The images captured with these cameras are amazing and so are the photos you create. - -More iPhone models in the future - -We're continuing to invest in the iPhone experience with an incredible line-up of new iPhones. The new iPhone 6s and new iPhones 6s Plus will include the new 12-megapixel iSight camera and improved sensors to enable greater accuracy. And our new iPhones will offer a smaller form, all with optical image stabilization. - -At the same time, we're working with existing iPhone vendors on even more innovative hardware to keep you in touch with the things you care about. The most notable of these is our partnership with LG to enhance screen performance with the upcoming iPhone SE. - -We've also announced three innovative accessories including a new, lightweight wireless case, an upgraded AirPort Extreme base station, and a wireless charging iPhone 7. - -Keep an eye on the Apple product page for more news, details, and videos about all that we've announced in 2018. - -What's in the box? - -iPhone 6s and 6s Plus - -Lightning to AC adapter and adapter cord (US, UK, AU) - -A1696 Apple EarPods - -MagSafe to MagSafe 2 converter - -Lightning to MagSafe 2 adapter cable - -Quick Start guide - -Apple Lightning to MagSafe-to-MagSafe cable (4.75 feet) - -Power adapter - -User manual - -iPhone SE - -iPhone SE's screen is larger, thinner, and even comes in a more colorful design.

But if you really wanted to know, how would you go about conducting an experiment to figure it all out? - -That's exactly what our friend Dr. Susan Snyder, a veterinary cardiologist, has recently done with her pets. She has given them the option of following diets with no nutritional value or a specific nutrient profile. - -Dr. Snyder then ran 12 experimental trials, comparing results. She found that dogs and other animals can make some intelligent, if not informed, decisions when faced with the prospect of a diet change. For dogs, she gave the option of eating the food they've always eaten, or a higher-protein diet. For cats, she gave the option to go low-fat or a low-carb diet – an option that was far different to what cats are accustomed to, because many cats have been raised on a meat-based diet. - -How did she choose the experimental diets? - -She had a series of groups follow either a commercial, no-frills vegan or meat-based diet for five consecutive days. These were the same food diets, but at two different times: on day one, the dogs were introduced to the food to find out what they liked and didn't like, but on day five, the dogs were offered a higher protein, high-fat, low-cholesterol diet, or a low-fat low-cholesterol diet. - -Her goal was to determine how long it takes a dog to adjust to a diet change. By giving each dog a food diet, she discovered whether she, the owner or the pet food manufacturer had any influence on its behavior. She found that the animals didn't take long to become accustomed to a new food diet. That is, they were as happy and contented eating the diet as they were eating the previous one, and they ate the same number of calories per day. - -The experiment revealed how quickly, and to what degree, the animal's digestive system can change its metabolism, and how long animals are able to adapt to a new diet. Dr. Snyder also wanted to show that animals can be made to change behaviors by their owner, but if they don't know what the food is and how the new food tastes, they may not eat it. - -What do you think would come of this research? - -"I thought the concept was interesting because it's not easy to do, even the most advanced nutrition studies," says Dr. Snyder. She's not sure if any other studies are on the horizon, and isn't sure what the implications are for dog owners as well as for pet food manufacturers. "We've just barely figured out how dogs digest and use food, and it will take some more work to understand the impact of different diets," she says. - -Read more about the experiment and the results in Dr. Susan Snyder's recent article in the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science. - - -What were the differences between the experimental diets? - -She used a low-fat diet and a meat-rich diet, and found that both diets had the same impact on dogs; they consumed a similar number of calories and did not differ in their overall nutrient content. The only major differences between the diets were that the meat-rich diet contained more fat and protein, which may have encouraged dogs to seek their dinner outside, and had a more sweetened taste and was more salty. - -What does this mean to dog owners? Do you have to eat a meat-centric diet, because your dog is going to need to? - -Your dog has the right to choose what he/she eats, it's just a matter of what he/she has learned to love. You can be sure that it won't affect your dog – most of them never even learn if food has too many calories or not enough. - -And although you might feel like your dog is getting a double dose of calories, a study shows that dogs with the same overall size, breed and age group, but from different breeds, also had the same body weight as the meat-based diet. They used a different feeding system, which made them more physically demanding, for which you may find that your dog is not ready. - -Is this the same as giving a dog a taste test to see whether it wants to eat the food? - -No. Dr. Snyder's "taste test" was designed to assess a potential change in food preference, and is not intended to compare foods between dogs or to determine the nutritional value of food. - -Read more about the experiment and the results in the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science. - -This story originally appeared on the WebMD Health Blog.<|endoftext|>In an op-ed in Thursday's Los Angeles Times, Sen.

Gentry was with New Orleans for eight seasons before being fired after a disappointing 2013-14 campaign. - -The team is currently looking for both a new head coach and general manager, and no one has been named for either of those jobs. The Pelicans fired Steve Kerr on Sunday after less than a year as the team's coach, and Gentry was let go after he made it known he considered retiring from coaching earlier in the season. But that is a far cry from firing Gentry for a poor season -- the team is just 1-6 on the year and has only two players on roster who were on the team last season: Ryan Anderson and Eric Gordon. The team's bench is depleted, with the Pelicans bench having the NBA's fourth-worst average minutes per game at just 22.1 minutes per game. The team is also the only NBA franchise this season not to have an NBA Development League team. - -"I can't speak for what's been going on with the organization," Gentry told reporters on Sunday. "What I can speak to is what I've known, and that is that I think the organization's made a decision, and I'm sure that's something that hasn't been well received by many people out there, or at least in the world.

The scheme will see the top rate of council tax to rise by a third from April to generate an estimated £2.3bn a year to fund care costs. - -The proposed rate would be in addition to GLC, which currently covers care costs, which currently cost up to £17,500 per year per person. All but two local areas have GLC. Many other councils charge up to £12,000. - -The Scottish government said the funding scheme would be more consistent in charging local area rates. - -Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said the government's reforms would ensure that health and social care bills are fairer, save money and help ensure that more care workers are paid. - -"The new tax would be the first of its kind in the country – not only raising money but providing money which can fund care for the elderly and vulnerable," she said. - -The proposed rate will raise an extra £50m a year for the Scottish Exchequer because of a £20m annual extra from bringing the highest rate closer to the UK average. - -The new GLC would give every family a £4,000 tax rebate, with the money given to local councils to fund social care. - -The new funding is in addition to the £1.5bn a year the Scottish Government says the Scottish parliament will receive this year and which it will use to fund health and social care.

Hanzal, a fifth-round pick in 2010, has been a disappointment since being acquired from the New York Rangers. Goligoski has rarely left the ice this season, and his play has been erratic and lackluster. - -Still, it is difficult to say the Stars have to choose between one of their most important players and all their future franchise cornerstone forward, Jamie Benn. - -General manager Jim Nill has stated he wants Hanzal and Goligoski retained, but with Benn still working hard to return from a broken foot, the Stars still might pursue a trade that would send both the 23-year-old Finn and their second-leading scorer — behind Patrick Eaves — to another Western Conference contender. - -"They've played extremely well together, but they have a ton of chemistry together," NHL Network analyst Scott Burnside said of Hanzal and Goligoski's time on the power play. "Hanzal has a very good shot from that [left wing] spot, and I think their linemates have been great to them. I think they have had a good chemistry this season, and I think there's going to be a point or two where he can't keep up with [Goligoski]." - -So what is the deal? - -Nill said the Stars can't ignore their two top power-play shooters — even though both are injured — because they could be dealt this summer for another high-quality player. - -"You always want to pick up your guys that are playing well, and when you do that, it makes the team more capable," Nill said. "It makes everyone around them better, so if there's a way we're going to get that talent, it's going to be by making a deal to bring our guys back." - -The Stars need to address their top six forwards if they're going to improve upon a 24th-place finish in the Western Conference with 56 points. Eaves was in a contract year, and while he's scored 25 goals, he scored just nine in 61 games the past two seasons. - -Goligoski — who has played nearly 28 minutes per game over the past two seasons — has been an elite defenseman in this league since he entered the league. He's played on the second power-play unit, and he's had the chance to move to third-line center. - -Hanzal has been a reliable third-line center for the Stars since being acquired from the New York Rangers in 2011.

While the Lumia 1320 was announced as a full Windows Phone 8.1 device at MWC in January, the Lumia 1520 has not been released at all – at least officially – and it is still unannounced. Now, it looks like Nokia may be looking to change that at the end of this month. - -T-Mobile Insider has spotted pictures which allegedly show details of an upcoming Android-centric Lumia smartphone, code-named F8. Nokia is using Android to boost its revenue, according to our sources, so it makes some sense to explore the possibilities with Google. The T-Mobile insider also stated that there might be additional phones which will come preinstalled with the F8 OS and it is not certain if they would arrive alongside the Lumia 1520. - -It is possible the F8 will be released alongside the Lumia 1520 - -As we previously reported, Nokia seems to be planning an even bigger splash at a couple of events taking place in Barcelona this month – one of them will be the MWC show. While we have only seen pictures of the Lumia 1520, and Nokia's new Android-centric phone is still unannounced, there is a lot of anticipation for this new Nokia flagship. We will be at MWC and will bring you everything as it develops in our liveblogs on June 6 and 7th (click here for a full schedule of press events and events).<|endoftext|>By John Denton - -The US Senate last week narrowly passed a federal bill to allow states to impose new restrictions on "assault weapons" that lawmakers say have become too popular. The legislation is unlikely to become law, however, because it's unlikely to ever become law. - -As a nation, the US has a long and proud tradition of having a debate over the nature of weapons with both sides in full view, and one doesn't need to look far to find examples of the kind of discussion Americans have over the nation's guns. - -The earliest American guns were small muskets, the kind our young Republic would have been a joke to have had if it couldn't have had muskets. There was one problem, though, muskets were cumbersome and inconvenient to use, so they were eventually replaced by the lighter breech-loading weapons we know to this day. The early designs were also prone to malfunction, meaning every gun required a trained marksman. - -What you have is a country with the second-lowest gun ownership in the developed world, and a gun violence problem no smaller than its crime rate because so many guns were already available in the early days. - -The first serious attempts to restrict firearm ownership came in 1881. A law passed by Congress imposed a ten-year prohibition on the manufacture and sale of "any firearm which will or is designed to or may readily be converted to expel any other projectile by the action of an explosive." - -This language was taken up soon after in the states around the country, and most states did just as they had done before. The next big attempt at gun control came in 1934 with the Gun Control Act of 1934. This law imposed a federal ban on semi-automatic guns as well as an registration scheme (which was later abandoned, thanks to the NRA) and the transfer of all firearms. (It's no coincidence some of the most deadly crimes involve semi-automatic weapons). - -A few states were able to defy the federal government by passing laws of their own making. Nevada's law for example outlawed possession by anyone with a past conviction for a violent crime, or anyone holding a license to carry a pistol. Other states, such the District of Columbia, passed laws that restricted the sales of semi-automatic weapons to only state residents. - -While these laws were supposed to prevent gun trafficking through federal law enforcement and to prevent the gun from being used in crimes, it didn't work out that way. After World War II, most gun rights advocates began to realize that the federal law was an unconstitutional infringement on the rights of the states themselves, and with the passage in 1942 of a federal law designed to regulate interstate commerce in firearms, there were signs that firearms law reform might be gaining momentum. - -But this was about to be short-lived, as with the passage in 1947 of Fire -======================================== SAMPLE 331 ======================================== -I recently got a chance to try a new line of supplements from Dr. Bose: the Bose Supersonic Tinnitus Solution. I have to say that I've never heard of anything like it. - -I've been reading and hearing a lot about the subject of tinnitus for years, and I've found that the vast majority of the advice given is quite a bit old school. They've all talked about the basics. - -My goal was to get some new recommendations. I wanted something with a bit of modern science at its core. I wanted to know what Dr. Bose has done in order to come up with this new product. - -It took about two weeks, but the Bose Supersonic Tinnitus Solution arrived, and I am so pleased with it. - -What Is Tinnitus And How Is It Treated? - -Tinnitus is a temporary disturbance in the sound of your own voice. You might suffer from it once or twice a day, or you might suffer from it constantly. It ranges from a barely perceptible sound in the middle of the night to having to stop your own speech because it hurts (the latter is called ringing in the ears). - -Tinnitus is usually a temporary disruption in a communication system that you're using, either because you're having a sudden earache or you're listening over-a-thong in a noisy subway car. When these people call 911, a few minutes later, they're no longer able to hear their voices. We often hear people refer to this as ringing in their ears, but that doesn't really capture the reality of it. Tinnitus is different. It's the sound of your own voice ringing in your head. - -Although many people believe they have tinnitus and don't know it, the symptoms are usually very subtle and hard to notice. They might include pain in some area of the head, or a buzzing sound in the middle ear, or difficulty hearing the difference between a whisper and a scream. People with tinnitus often don't think about it unless they hear a sudden sound in the middle of the night or in the middle of a long conversation. - -Tinnitus and ringing in the ears can be caused by hearing damage, stroke, or hearing loss. There are medications to treat it, including medications that target the tinnitus-producing nerve and/or medications that activate specific receptors. - -Tinnitus Therapy For Anxiety - -As I've discussed before, tinnitus is quite common. According to the National Institute for Mental Health, "the prevalence of tinnitus was 1.5% in the American population in 2017 [or 20 million people]. The prevalence was higher for men (1.7%) and women (1.5%), and for people without any hearing disability (1.1%), especially among older people." - -In order to treat tinnitus, you first have to identify the underlying problem. Tinnitus has been identified as a very common problem (more than 75 percent of the time, tinnitus is more typical of women than men), and there are various therapies that can help. - -There is no one perfect answer to treating tinnitus, and there are no silver bullets. However, there are a lot of different ways to alleviate tinnitus, and they work reasonably well for many people. - -One of those is called "tinnitus management therapy." These are very small studies that have tried to identify what causes tinnitus and some sort of tinnitus control therapy. For example, there is the Tinnitus Neuroplasticity Approach which teaches your brain to "tune" or "modify a portion of the tinnitus signal," as shown below. However, there hasn't been much science showing tinnitus management therapy to be effective. - -Tinnitus Management Therapies From a Research Perspective - -Several studies have tried to use tinnitus therapy for anxiety. While some of the findings are promising, researchers haven't produced evidence about when and how tinnitus treatments might work for anxiety. I am hoping research such as this leads to the development of a better tinnitus treatment for anxiety. - -Conclusion - -As I was reading through the Bose product information, I found the following statement:<|endoftext|>On Monday, a top White House aide told reporters that the president would "probably" sign the GOP health care plan. On Thursday, the president said he still planned to sign it, but that he would only do so after giving more thought to the issue. "I want a really good health care plan. I don't want a plan that's good for the people of our country and that lowers costs as substantially as the plan that's out there, but with some great features, but no matter what I don't want to see premiums double," Mr. Trump said.<|endoftext|>Pentagon spokesman Col.

The sensor provides an even higher level of security than the Touch ID sensor that's built into the iPhone 7. - -What kind of security? I'm talking about the kind that makes you physically and mentally uncomfortable, of course. You may have a better idea of what that is. - -A few weeks before iOS 9 was released last fall, security researchers showed how an attacker might brute-force the iPhone 8's Touch ID sensor. After learning the passcode required to get into the iPhone, the researcher showed that he could take advantage of the security hole that affects more than a million iPhone 8 models and force it to unlock within just a few seconds. - -Now security researchers at Google have demonstrated that they can hack the iPhone 8's new fingerprint sensor using a different fingerprint-reading technique. Using a computer to scan the person's fingerprints and use them as keys for the new sensor, they can take advantage of the same "weaknesses" that the iPhone 8's Touch ID sensor can exploit. The technique is described in more details on the Google Security blog. - -The Google attack works by bypassing the lock screen in the same way the "Practical cryptosystems" reference book uses the term: via a password. - -What's unusual about the new attack is that it only requires a person's fingerprint. "Mostly this is because if you have a finger print, you'll have a higher security level than if you have a physical feature," wrote Google researcher Karsten Nohl, who works on the security team, in an e-mail. (Nohl is an Android security engineer.) "The fingerprint scanner is much cheaper than a face, so you need to use a low-cost feature instead of more expensive features like a facial recognition system." - -What makes the attack novel, in the eyes of Google researchers, isn't just the ease with which it could be carried out -- it's that the researchers weren't limited to just Apple's fingerprint sensor. "It is possible that the same technique could be adapted against any device with facial recognition, biometrics or fingerprint support," the researchers said. - -"Since the Apple camera is so powerful and is built into iPhones, most applications can leverage FaceID when it could also handle a fingerprint," wrote the researchers, who are part of Google's Project Zero. - -If you're wondering what kind of password is required to open an iPhone, the answer for most devices can likely be guessed using brute force: something short that's easy to type such as "password" or "12345678." - -For a device like an iPhone, this type of vulnerability is especially alarming because it allows a thief to unlock an iPhone without your knowledge, said Matthew Green, a cryptography professor at Johns Hopkins University who was among those who criticized the iPhone 8's Touch ID fingerprint sensor. And Apple has said that the new fingerprint scanner can provide a password to unlock the phone within a couple of seconds. - -"Even if the fingerprint scanner is secure, it still should be kept in your home because criminals will find it a very easy to use entry method," said Michael Wehner, a professor at George Washington University and an expert in privacy, surveillance and social engineering. - -"I'm really bothered by a situation where the thief can use a biometric device, a device with a keypad and an entry method that uses your fingerprint," Green said. He noted that the FBI's use of Apple's device has been subject to complaints and legal action from privacy activists who say the law enforcement agency can access customers' encrypted data without a warrant that is tied to the individual. - -"Apple's new biometric features are really useful, but they do not guarantee a high level of security," Wehner said. "The phone must be password protected or have an extra layer of authentication, which I view as a bad thing." - -Related articles:<|endoftext|>This article is about the Imperial Guard Chapter.

The Great Wall is one of the most well-known landmarks in the world, so it's no surprise that people are still fascinated with its extraordinary beauty." - -– Richard Mihalic, The Great Wall of China: How It Changed the World, 2014 - -In 1626, the first Chinese expedition to the wall was led by an Italian scholar. His mission was to map it. The result was a magnificent map which could have been part of England's Great Map. This map, known as the Zhengde map, helped change the course of world history. From then on, China's rise became unstoppable. The map and its description of the world became the most influential map of its time and the foundation for centuries of world maps. - -In the centuries that followed the Zhengde map, Chinese scholars continued to explore. They used the same skills that had brought them to the Great Wall of China. But the Great Wall was different. At the time, Europeans had begun to explore the Americas to find the fabled New World, and these explorers took detailed land and sea maps. Chinese scholars still didn't know about the Americas, but many knew how to map it. - -The Great Wall had long been abandoned by the Ming dynasty, a feudal society which lacked the funds to maintain it. Many people feared that if the wall were found to be a useless monument to the Ming dynasty, it would fall apart for many reasons. - -Then, in 1949, it was discovered by a British explorer. This was the famous Sir Francis Drake, who had made his name as a seafarer and explorer. Drake wanted to chart out the new world, and decided to visit this place. - -When he came to this place, he realized how much of a puzzle this wall was. The map that he had studied before the wall was no help in finding the Great Wall of China. As the Great Wall existed in the south, Drake had to take an incredibly long route through Mongolia and up to the north. He did manage to visit the center and map it. - -The Great Wall in Jingdezhen in Inner Mongolia. The city that Drake visited had some of it's streets named after him. - -What Drake saw on his expedition led him to study more about the wall and then discovered a few more interesting facts. The map which Drake had studied previously showed two sections of the wall. One section was about 100 miles long, and the other section was only ten miles long. This map was also the same size as the Zhengde map which had been put together by the same Italian, but its map was not the same. The one that Drake had studied looked to be the same size. This map showed that there were two sections on the west side of the wall, and three sections on the east side of the wall. - -Drake was inspired by a French book which had shown the same map with a section on the north end of the Great Wall of China. Drake did not realize these two maps were different, but it made him wonder why this part was so different. - -He realized the Great Wall of China was composed of many many, many lines and branches. It took him a month to map the wall, and found that this map was incorrect. He also discovered that there were many different directions that he needed to travel to get all the different parts of the wall. - -For the rest of his life, Drake continued working on the map and discovered the many details of the Great Wall. And he also worked on the map for many years afterward because he found that many things on the map which no one had realized were missing! - -It wasn't until 1978 that Drake, having learned the map in the Great Wall museum in Beijing, discovered the truth about the map in China. He returned to China and found that the map he had studied had had a number of errors. For example, on the north end of the Great Wall there was no place named China, just called "Great Wall." But on the south end, there was a China of the Ming government! - -The Great Wall of China is now a museum in Beijing. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in China and the most visited national symbol in China. The Great Wall is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.<|endoftext|>"For many Americans it's not a big deal whether or not they have insurance. But they'd like to.

She would lay in bed after I was gone, and I used to joke that I would one day "take the bird out to the woods". She used it as a metaphor for when she wished she could do certain things, but wasn't allowed to. One of these things that was allowed was to leave my apartment. I said that I would give her a pigeon and she would leave and I would bring it back to our apartment and see if I could release it. We've been seeing her with a pigeon with us for the past six years. - -The Bird Project is an initiative organized by Pigeon Project to put pigeons through daily and daily activities in order for them to become independent and then release them. The ultimate goal of this is for the pigeons to eventually be released back into the wild. - -The birds that are at Pigeon Program are taken from their outdoor cages at a very young age. They are fed a mix of organic food, and other organic treats such as hay to meet their nutritional needs while they are still in birds' own environment, but are then kept in cages indoors and allowed limited outdoor time. It is difficult for them to cope with all of the distractions, noise, and changes in light for their freedom. Once the pigeons are old enough they are then taken to a special "Pigeon Training Center" so their new personalities can be exposed to new experiences and opportunities. Most birds that get sent to the Pigeon Program live with a group of other pigeon volunteers, and the program is a fun and stimulating experience for them. - -To learn more about Pigeon Project, click HERE.<|endoftext|>When you think about the most powerful and impressive vehicles ever created, maybe there are only two people you might think about. - -One, and only time will I mention his name, was Bill Gates.

It was produced as a result of a collaboration between Volvo Automobile and Volvo Design. It is still extremely popular today and currently sells close to 20k vehicles a year. - -The reason it is so popular is because it was designed to look like a futuristic truck, which is something that people just love because it's so different from other vehicles we see today. There are also a few features that have stayed on the vehicle for a while now. - -For example, it has LED headlamps, so drivers don't have to get out of the way while on the highway or have to switch them off for safety reasons, which is a benefit to many people. It also has the ability to take a full charge in just 16 minutes, which is fantastic to drive with a passenger in the front or the back of the car. - -While a few people have been interested in buying this model, most people are more likely to keep it as an antique for its looks and for the fact that it only needs to be driven for 20k miles once a year to get the full $300 credit that it earns. - -#9 – Audi TT RS 7 - -The 2009 Audi TT RS 7 was developed and manufactured by Bugatti, the car maker based near Provence, France.

For decades, The Walking Dead has been one of the most influential fantasy books by focusing on its ensemble cast of characters who, despite not existing under a central, overarching story, form an intricate weave of plot, conflict and conflict-resolution. - -And on Sunday, a different cast of characters from the series made their way to San Diego Comic-Con, where they were joined by an actress from the show, Lauren Cohan. The Walking Dead's fourth season wrapped last April with the introduction of the character of Melissa (who was played by Cohan). The actor, who was brought into The Walking Dead universe by showrunner Scott Gimple prior to the show's first season (where she acted as a series regular) made her first official appearance at the convention at a panel in which she was asked about what it's like being able to play an action woman who also happens to be in a TV show. - -Cohan, who was recently seen in The Big Short, said she always has an idea of what action would be like if a woman was the main character instead of an action guy. She explained how the show has been a great outlet for her to learn how women should act on-screen (as well as what male writers can learn from her own experience), and she said what's important is that the writers of the series know that a woman can have an interesting and complex character to themselves. - -"You know what? I think it's great in this day and age that it is okay for a young woman to act," Cohan added. "I think it's fun not just to get the action in but have the audience think the character's doing something different than what he just did." - -RELATED: How the Walking Dead Season 4 Is Changing Things for Melissa - -Though she didn't specifically discuss Cohan's Melissa story, she did note that she likes how the series has focused so much on relationships between the characters. She did describe how the new showrunner, Dave Erickson, is focusing a lot on "the family aspect" of the story. - -"It's fun because the fans are doing a lot of really creative things," Cohan said of the show's fandom.

They're likely a thoughtful and generous and friendly person who simply asked a lot of questions and had a lot of questions. - -But often, they were not. And that's when you can be the perfect role model. - -You can say that your friend just asked a lot of questions and that if you think there's something that needs to be cleared up, you should be the one to get it cleared up. - -You can say that the questions were about a very sensitive subject and that the person who asked them should be in control of their own mind and body and that this person is too close to the incident to be allowed to get away with bullying them. - -You can say that what you know now makes it clear why someone asked, how the people involved responded, and how things would have been different if they had been in control of their own mind and body, not an unsupervised person. - -You can say that this is, in fact, an opportunity for you to learn something in a way that no one else has heard that might help you help them — and that you've been in a situation before where you were able to help someone and they did the right thing by you. - -You can say that you know that the person should know that their safety and peace of mind, especially if their behavior is to ask questions about their own safety and peace of mind, can best be maintained by themselves, in order for them to make the best decisions possible; this is not a request to see if their friend would be willing to have one individual in charge over them. This is just asking you to respect this person's wishes in the interests of safety and peace of mind. And it's asking you to make sure that they understand that their wishes don't apply to this situation as it exists right now in this situation, that you are not their therapist. - -You can say, again, that this is a conversation that no one on your side is able to do.

However, it only took effect the day the bill passed the Assembly. (The Governor signed it into law on June 14, 2016, although many California voters approved it in November.) - -Here is a look at the provisions of the legislation. Keep in mind that many of these changes will be phased in gradually. If you're planning to register to vote before August 1, you have until September 1 to register on state forms. And if you are not already registered, you will need to register right away to have your voter registration processed. The Act also gives local governments and certain public institutions, such as community colleges, the ability to create their own voter registration. - -The following table summarizes the major changes to the law that will take effect September 1, 2016, when the Act takes effect: - -Voting at the ballot box - -All of the changes have one thing in common: they will allow people to vote at the ballot box—for example, at the polling place (in person) where they are registered to vote. Currently, in California, anyone who does not live in a house and does not maintain a physical address in the state is not allowed to vote at the ballot box. - -Changes that will be effective on September 1, 2016: - -California voters can vote at the polling place where they are registered to vote. - -People who are disabled, under 18, or out of the country will be able to vote by absentee ballot, if a county makes an appointment for them to do so. These people are eligible to vote absent themselves from their home county in order to vote the absentee ballot in another county. - -People who are registered to vote with a California driver license or a state ID card can now request to see their driver license to vote, for example, if they are visiting California. These people do not need to show valid identification to vote. - -All voters can vote at the ballot box. - -Eligibility to vote by mail - -People who are eligible to vote by mail—that is, those who are 18, who have not moved since the last election, and who are not incarcerated or on parole—are no longer required to mail in their ballot in order to be allowed to vote. - -Changes that will be effective September 1, 2016: - -Eligibility to vote by mail will be extended to the following people: - -eligible military personnel - -an applicant for naturalization - -citizens of the United States and Mexico who have been living abroad for 12 years and are in the state of California on the effective date of the law. - -If those individuals already are voting by absentee ballot, they will simply be able to vote their absentee vote. - -The following changes will not take effect until September 1, 2016: - -citizens and persons who have been in the United States less than 12 months on the day before the election, on the effective date of the law. - -any applicant for political office. - -eligible members of the uniformed services. - -Any voter without a California driver's license or state ID card or the legal age to vote can vote by absentee ballot until the day before the Election Day (by mail). To request an absentee ballot in person, send an application to your county clerk of the month prior to the election, by August 15th (by election day). To vote by absentee ballot, you must cast your ballot before the day of the election. - -How you register to vote - -There are two ways you can register to vote: - -online - -by mail - -To register online: - -On the California Secretary of State website you will find information about your state or country of citizenship, your signature, photo ID, and the type of document you can present.

For decades, parking-enforcement officers have used a variety of automated devices to record the license plate numbers of motorists who park in spaces reserved for public use. - -The recent development of the parking-enforcement system, announced earlier this month in the Department of Motor Vehicles's parking-enforcement report, marks the first time that a statewide automated parking system has been contemplated. - -If and when it is established, automated parking will be similar to traffic enforcement cameras, with the driver required to pay a fee at a meter before the parking space is given to the vehicle for which the tag numbers belong. - -The state will contract the use of these automated machines from various companies and organizations, which will operate the cameras for the program. - -An automatic parking system is part of an array of changes that have taken place over the past 20 years at the DMV. The number of parking-enforcement officers is being reduced, and the agency has become a player in the transportation technology industry. - -The DMV issued the parking-enforcement report this month in response to a request from the Legislature in 2002 for the establishment of a comprehensive state program regarding motor vehicle parking. - -In the report, the DMV recommended establishing a statewide parking-enforcement program. Under the policy, it would issue parking-enforcement tickets to the owners and operators of private garages when a motorist fails to return to an authorized vehicle after parking for longer than 30 minutes — a period, according to the report, intended to be sufficient so the parking space is reclaimed by another occupant. - -The report also recommended that the public be able to view the license plates of vehicles parked on the premises of private garages, and that the owner and operator of an illegal parking spot be charged for that property. - -To operate the automated systems, the DMV has contracted with one of four companies: AccuVision, a company that builds automated parking devices; GeoLit, a company in Ann Arbor that designs the computer processing equipment required to operate the machines; Autoliv, a company, which is building the system in Detroit; and Cota, a manufacturer of automated parking cameras. - -GeoLit developed a system called "LiteView" that can take a picture of the license plate, the registration sticker, and the interior of the vehicle before writing any information or taking a picture. In addition to the "LiteView," the DMV is also interested in the Automatic Vending System system. - -With the technology available, the automatic parking system would require an operator to look up the license plate number of every vehicle parked on the parking lot — a process that takes between 20 and 30 seconds. - -The automated systems can be accessed by a law enforcement officer from within 30 feet, with the operator then holding the system with the key fob in the operator's left hand and turning on the key. - -Under the proposed system, the license plate number will be recorded on a computer screen similar to the one used to photograph a vehicle to determine the proper registration status. During the scan, the computer will detect when the license plate is lifted from the ground by a vehicle. If the plate is lifted by an unauthorized vehicle, the system will activate. - -If the license plate is lifted by an authorized vehicle, a camera with a digital camera that can capture three images in rapid sequence and one in a panoramic setting will take a picture of the plate and the operator in that vehicle. - -The camera will then record the license plate number, and the operator will have to pay a fee that covers the cost of the machine for three periods of 30 minutes each. - -The fee varies on different garages where the system is put into operation. For instance, the fee for a garage that has more than 4,000 spaces is $15 to $20 for 3 hours. If the garage has less than 4,000 spaces, the monthly fee is $6. - -The $15 fee would include a daily record of all the license plates, which will be maintained for seven years by the department. According to the report, this information would be provided to law enforcement when a violation is detected on the property. - -Agency spokesman Jason Gennaro said that the department intends to seek approval from the Michigan Government Operations Council to obtain the license plate scanner. - -Gennaro said there are a number of concerns, however, that will need to be addressed before the license plate scanner is developed. - -"It's just going to be an initial step," Gennaro said of the agency's plans. "Once we get the permit from the GMOC, we'll be able to look at all the options." - -In addition to getting approval by the GMOC to use the scanner, Gennaro said that officials also must meet with various stakeholders, including other agencies and private companies including parking-enforcement companies that are located in the Lansing area. - -Gennaro said he believes the agency is well positioned to -======================================== SAMPLE 340 ======================================== -The Obama administration on Monday released revised data on U.S. gun sales—a year after the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and other federal officials initially said illegal guns were flowing through an online portal. - -A White House official said the updated figures—which show the number of transactions in the National Instant Criminal Background Check System from July 2012 through Feb. 27—represent "a meaningful improvement" from the first figures provided in April 2013, but he did not indicate which categories have seen changes. - -"There are some clear shifts in the data, like the significant number of background checks completed more recently with more information," the official said. - -ATF officials said last year that "some illegal firearms" had been recovered at crime scenes, but have refused to release the specifics. - -The agency said in April 2013 that it would make the revised figures public. But the ATF subsequently said the agency had no idea when the new information would be released. - -"We're still looking at a schedule for it being released," ATF spokesperson Deborah Sherman told The Daily Beast. - -"We're doing our best to get something out," she said. - -The number of background checks completed each week has remained relatively consistent since 2010, when it was just a few thousand checks per week. - -But the number of background checks received by federal law enforcement has dropped almost 25 percent in the past six years, from roughly 70 percent of the total checks completed in 2010 to around 55 percent in 2013, according to DOJ data. - -And there are some new details: For the first time, the number of firearms transactions reported by the National Instant Criminal Background Check System—the online system the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives uses to check whether prospective buyers have been disqualified from buying firearms—is available for 2013, according to the NICS. - -The number of checks received by law enforcement for 2013 has gone up by nearly 20 percent, from more than 5 million completed to nearly 6.3 million completed in 2013. - -Sherman said ATF officials are still trying to "figure out" which checks were completed in other states. - -But it appears that at least one state—Arizona—has reported that more people completed background checks in 2013 than were employed in 2009. - -ATF officials declined to comment on the discrepancy. - -The Obama administration has in the past argued that the number of checks is a reliable indicator of firearms sales in the country. But for the past two years, the administration has been reluctant to release details about illegal gun purchases, prompting lawmakers on the left to criticize such silence. - -"Instead of providing the American people with information about the millions of background checks conducted each month, the administration is hiding the truth," said Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. "The American people need to know how easy guns are to buy in this country." - -"The administration has made clear that the number of guns on America's streets will not fall unless we take action—and as usual these numbers are hiding details that allow for a complete picture," said Senator Charles Schumer. - -"It is deeply disturbing that the number of prohibited weapons sold through NICS went up more than 25 percent this past year. And it turns out that these new data may suggest a big problem," said Sen. Dianne Feinstein.<|endoftext|>What is "the most dangerous country on earth"? - -(NaturalNews) When a "world authority" like the, which is supposed to "advise" the U.S. on foreign affairs, declares that Pakistan is "the most dangerous country on earth ," that is not the sort of assessment you want to hear from a "world authority."That's because, according to the "world authority," the "most dangerous country on Earth" is Saudi Arabia.Yes, you read that right. Just in case you thought the "world authority" was kidding or trying to keep information a secret, the "world authority" claims that Saudi Arabia is the "most dangerous country on Earth." The same country that routinely kills women and children in the streets, engages in rape, beheadings, crucifixions, the burning of homosexuals and countless other atrocities.As reported by, an authoritative body that has been in charge of issuing the "most dangerous country" ranking since the early 1990s, Saudi Arabia scored 727 on the global index of "state of security violence against women and girls." That is in comparison to countries like Bangladesh, Honduras and Nepal, which score an average of just 39.The world authority claimed that Pakistan's state of security violence against women and girls is much worse, stating that there have been, according to Amnesty International, "almost 60 reported incidents of violence against women in Pakistan this year alone, and as many as 1,400 attacks since 2008." But the "world authority," like the rest of the mainstream media , does not even bother to look critically at the actual source of the figures.The "world authority," which has -======================================== SAMPLE 341 ======================================== -Cannabis - -Cannabis - -A cannabis plant (Photo by: John Dixon/Getty Images) - -Cannabis is an illegal drug in the United States that can be used for many different medical treatments, and marijuana has been used for thousands of years for its ability to relieve the pain, nausea, and other symptoms that come with cancer treatment, chemotherapy, epilepsy, glaucoma, multiple sclerosis, and other diseases. - -Marijuana use is currently at an all-time high in the States according to several studies. Some 70 million Americans use marijuana on a regular basis, and marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug by young people. More than 6 million states and the nation's capital have some form of medical marijuana laws in place. - -Research has determined that the active constituents of cannabis are delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main psychoactive component, and cannabidiol (CBD), which has many anti-inflammatory properties without causing dependence. Medical marijuana is also able to act on tumor growth by inhibiting the growth of blood vessels and enzymes that are involved in making blood cells, which causes them to shrink and shrink, and also reduces the amount of oxygen absorbed by the tumor cells. - -It is also believed that the cannabinoids may be able to prevent cancer cells from growing in certain types of tissue, which could in turn protect against metastasis. - -Marijuana Can Treat Cancer and Pain - -Cannabis can be used in several different ways for treating cancer pain and inflammation, as well as other medical conditions. - -It has been found that THC can relieve pain and inflammation in a particular type of muscle called spasticity after surgery. Spasticity is a very common ailment with patients who have had spinal surgeries, and patients may suffer from an array of symptoms such as uncontrollable shaking, stiffness, involuntary leg movements, and difficulty with breathing. THC effectively works to stop the spasticity, which relieves patients' spasticity. - -In a study published in The American Journal of Cancer Care published in November 2014, the researchers observed that marijuana caused a decrease in the size of cancer-related lesions in mice. These researchers found that both cancer cells that are found in different tissues and non-cancerous cells were reduced in size in the treated mice compared to the mice treated with morphine. This means that THC may reduce the tumor growth, which may be beneficial in controlling the spread of tumors in the body. - -Although the amount and type of THC used in this study was small, this research suggests that THC can significantly reduce the growth of cancer cells, which can help treat pain and inflammation that are part of many cancers. - -A study published in the Journal of Toxicology in November 2014 found that THC has anti-inflammatory and painkilling functions in mice, as well as decreased the growth of lung cancer. - -Cannabinoids May Treat Cancer in Several Ways - -Another study published in December 2016 investigated the effects of cannabinoids on metastatic prostate cancer metastases in mice. This study found that cannabinoids are both anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory, and they are able to help reduce metastatic metastases in mice. - -A study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found that THC had an effect in reducing the growth of cancer cells in a specific part of a mouse's intestine. It was also found that cannabinoids have no effect other than reducing stomach cancer growth, which is another form of cancer. - -Cannabinoids Can also Reverse the Body's Response to Cancer Treatment - -Another study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology found that cannabinoids can reduce the immune system responses of colon cancer cells by increasing the expression of the molecules and enzymes that are required to keep the immune system in balance. - -A 2013 publication in The Journal of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology found that cannabinoids reduce tumor growth and spread in laboratory animals by reducing invasion of cancer cells and their ability to thrive. - -Another study published in The American Journal of Medical Genetics found that cannabinoids can increase the immune response, which decreases metastatic cancer, thus decreasing the incidence of the ailment. - -A study in The Journal of Molecular Oncology in 2012 found that cannabinoids reduce tumor growth with only the administration of a chemical called CBN (cannabidiol). CBN is thought to act by inhibiting tumor growth by slowing its growth, increasing its internal permeability and preventing cancer cells from attaching to it. - -What Are the Side Effects of Using Marijuana for Cancer Treatment? - -Cannabis is also effective in treating many conditions, including: - -CNS inflammation - -Headache and other problems - -Seizures - -Diabetes - -Glaucoma - -Inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis - -Alzheimer's and other psychiatric conditions - -Epidermolysis bullosa, and other skin diseases - -Painful conditions such as migrain -======================================== SAMPLE 342 ======================================== -From Star Trek Timelines Wiki - -This is a list of all the non-unique Common/Rare ships that can be obtained from the Khan Event in Ship Vendors. - -All Ships without a Starbase (e.g. Starbases) have an additional +2 bonus to Common/Rare ships (i.e. no +1 Bonus, no +2 Bonus). - -See: Starbase & Ship Vendors - -See also: Khan Event Collection - -List of Uniques [ edit | edit source ]<|endoftext|>The "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie that will star Dakota Johnson was pulled from theaters and banned by a Florida law school after it was discovered that the film contains strong sexual content. - -Florida State University's College of Media and Entertainment recently hosted a panel on "Fifty Shades of Grey," and student film critic Brian Ritchie asked the panel why there was a movie in theaters, despite the controversial subject matter. - -"You don't have a book," one panel member said.

"But when something like that comes up, when there is something like that like 'Fifty Shades of Grey' out there and I'm going to look this up on the internet and I have found something I've never seen in my entire life, I thought that we should take the opportunity to educate ourselves before we even get in front of people that actually know what is going on." - -One of the panelists, David M.

The new prototype uses an innovative approach in which a bioelectric sensor is implanted directly into a patient's abdomen. This sensor is made up of a network of small electrodes that are connected to a microcomputer. - - -Professor Sinclair said: "We now have an accurate, cheap, and robust biosensor designed in the image of a living, breathing entity, and the biosensor can be readily transported to a patient in order to monitor their health." - - -"This bioelectrical biosensor offers a number of advantages over traditional biological sensors such as COX-2, an enzyme that is often the target of treatment for cancer," explained Professor Sinclair. - - -The prototype will allow researchers to study the body's response to a specific infection or disease, or monitor the state of the immune system, which has an important impact on the effectiveness of treatment. - - -A team of researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles, the University of California at Berkeley and the University of Pennsylvania have been working for the past six years to develop the biosensor. - - -Researchers have identified several applications relating to the use of the sensor. They include monitoring the health of persons with cancer, developing personalized treatments for the immune system and improving the screening of persons with certain types of cancer. The prototype could also be used to monitor the health of patients undergoing medical operations, including those undergoing CTs or MRIs. - - -Professor Sinclair and his team are expected to present their research at the International Symposium on Biomedical Systems, Biomedicine and Clinical Applications in San Diego on 29-30 January, 2012. - - -Reference: "Biosensor for accurate detection of cancer as early as 15 minutes and in the abdomen."

One of the most requested features was to add cross platform play between Mac and Windows. While this is something we're excited about, we have no plans to do this just yet. - -This isn't a matter of trying to force a player to switch to Mac and vice-versa, or force an alternative client to be developed. We're currently working on a bunch of exciting features that are still a ways off from release, and cross platform play is not one of them. - -The big question most players are asking themselves is what are the advantages to having a cross platform client? What do you gain from having it in place? Is it actually any better than Windows for gaming on OS X? - -Before we tackle those questions, let's take a look at the downsides to supporting the alpha release of the game. - -First off, it's a good idea to check the Mac forum for an idea of what our current plans for the Mac client may be. As a result of being so early in the development cycle, we haven't had a chance to test and optimize everything. We apologize for the wait and will get ready for a release as soon as we have time to review what our current Mac build is really capable of. - -The biggest downside to having a cross platform client is what it implies. Many players don't own a Mac or don't think it should be necessary to have to. If you own a Mac and have the potential to play in a Mac client, then you should! There are a number of reasons to own a Mac. The game is designed to run comfortably on it. It takes up less space in the operating system, and has a nice little feature called AirPlay for downloading your saved games to your iPhone. Being able to play on Windows and OS X together is great! - -However, I'm pretty sure that you can't imagine how many people here play on Mac and Windows without them. They're just good friends and the best gaming options available. I'm not going to argue for having a mac client, but to be frank, I also think it would be a little weird if we suddenly made it an exception to the Mac rule of thumb. - -Let me know what you think in the comments! - --Matt<|endoftext|>It is currently October 30th, 2018, 04:05 pm - -Login • Register Username: Password: | Log me on automatically each visit - -Who is online - -In total there -======================================== SAMPLE 346 ======================================== -The world's second largest online retailer, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., has, at last, broken out its market research. According to a new report filed with its stock exchange this past week, the company has released an in-depth report on the future of its online and app industry that includes some projections on retail trends. This, after years of speculation, may represent a turning point for Asia's largest e-commerce company. - -A key component in the report is the company's goal for 20% of its products to be sold through apps. This would be a big change from the current 2%. The report also predicts that half of China's online shoppers won't even be shopping by smartphone. - -The company's online commerce system may become even more dynamic. Alibaba Group will be integrating its mobile app platform Alibaba Cloud with its cloud computing business, Alipay, as well as a range of new services. These include an AI-based algorithm designed to match shoppers to a specific seller, as well as an app design system that will predict how people will search for information and how they will navigate to a specific product. - -The company said that it expects to reach a milestone of 20 million merchants by next year, up from 13 million last year. - -Alibaba has had some serious setbacks in the last few years that, as recently as this week, will likely have a huge effect on its future. Some of the most serious have been, but are not limited to: the listing of Alibaba on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), a proposed $160 billion initial public offering (IPO) of which it is one of the initial target companies, the recent loss of the CEO, Jack Ma, to a minor illness that seems to have been the result of a serious falling out with his brother, and the sudden departure of the Chinese Commerce Ministry from its stake in the company.<|endoftext|>A/N: I'm a first time reader, so forgive any grammatical and/or spelling errors. I'm writing with a particular focus on the "good guys". These characters are a sort of mirror image of those of 'Harry Potter' and 'Mystery/Suspense', but we don't have a Harry and a Hermione or a Ron and a Ginny, etc., so I'm just going off of the canon books.

The idea of a wizarding school was no more ridiculous than Hogwarts was. Yes, the school had no practical use anymore, but the Hogwarts he remembered as a child, filled with Hogwarts books and Harry's parents' old Quidditch gear, was the Hogwarts he wanted to return to in a flash of speed. He didn't know how he'd ever be able to forget, but that was how he hoped Hermione would be able to forget. - -If only he had a way to go back. - -A tiny bit of silver slipped across the back of his hand as he ran the cold water over the cloth. He looked at the shiny bead and smiled. - -"Mum, how much did I pay that house elf not to kill a few muggles while she was serving me?" - -"You can't be serious?" - -Snape sat cross-legged in the kitchen chair, reading over the Potions Master's notes in a not-so-gentle manner. - -"He couldn't do it," Harry said, shrugging. "He didn't do anything." - -"So you mean he wasn't a pure-blood?" - -"Pure-blood means pureblooded." - -"Harry, you should know: muggles and muggles with magic don't do anything to each other. They use magic if and only if there is a genuine magical power connection that goes back to the blood, and that connection is between the two parties' parents. But as for pure-bloods and muggles with magic, they simply don't. They use magic like they would use a wand, they just don't use it to save lives or make friends, they use it as a means of destroying, murdering, stealing, getting away with murder, and killing. Pure-bloods are just like muggles, not better or worse, just like muggles. No one really gives a damn, actually." - -Snape stared hard at him. He still had a few angry slashes across his face where he had been hit by the Dark Lord's curse, but he didn't look nearly as angry as the last time. - -The Dark -======================================== SAMPLE 347 ======================================== -Riot released a statement on the recent changes to Summoner's Rift. - -Riot's statement reads: "Today we're making a change to the balance of Summoner's Rift. - -"Riot has a lot of confidence in the power of the balance changes, but we're listening to players and making improvements to the Rift at the same time.

The Freedom is likely to be stripped of its weapons and sent to drydock for repairs and recertification of systems, the report stated. - -"Based on the data available, LCS 8 is currently undergoing repairs to its hull and bow as a part of repairs following a training exercise in which the bow did experience significant damage," the report stated. - -The Pentagon noted that the Freedom would need to be recertified before heading to sea in the near future — a fact that doesn't come as a surprise given the severity of the damage. "LCS 8 will receive its own dry dock and a complete overhaul," the Navy stated in regards to the ship's recertification. - -The Pentagon report added there were no injuries to personnel.

A White House official confirmed to Business Insider that the Obama administration had "no plans" to appoint Durbin to a position at the Federal Reserve. It is also well known that Obama's attorney general, Eric Holder, and the Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner, both favored banking interests, and did not mind working with Wall Street banks. - -The New York Federal Reserve Bank confirmed today to BizTech News that President Obama's choice to be the third member of the Board of Directors of the National Credit Union Administration, William Dudley, had "inadvertently disclosed" to the New York Federal Reserve Bank while serving in the United States Senate that he was "interested in" lobbying for the New York Federal Reserve Bank and other "financial institutions." - -It was later learned that Durbin had not been elected to the United States Senate, nor did he appear on the state voting rolls and therefore his nomination was not considered, yet Durbin continued to try to obtain a seat on the Board of Directors. - -What is equally noteworthy, however, is that the New York Fed did not even raise an objection to Durbin's attempts to lobby for his old job as a position at the NCUA Board. Instead, it was Durbin's actions that provoked the NY Fed to go to the Federal Reserve and make the complaint to the Federal Reserve that he would take an interest in banking institutions which are not subject to Federal Reserve oversight. - -The NY Fed also denied Durbin, by no means the first person to make a similar attempt to get a bank seat on the Fed's Board of Directors, approval to have his confirmation submitted to the Senate, nor to hold positions in the NCUA and at the Federal Emergency Management Agency. - -According to Business Insider's Joe Weisenthal, "Durbin's efforts to obtain the seat at the NCUA were in their early stages when Warren got involved. Durbin told the Federal Reserve that Dudley, who was then the president of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, was 'interested in' lobbying at the Federal Reserve for a seat on the Federal Reserve Board." - -It is known that when Warren came to Washington her "carefully crafted" "investigations and hearings" were designed to ensure that she had bipartisan support for her legislation and to put pressure on Republicans. Warren sought to secure a chairmanship on the Securities and Exchange Commission. This is an important position as it regulates corporations' stock option policies for senior executives, and that also gives the SEC the tools it needs to investigate companies. And because the position requires a super-majority of votes to confirm a nominee, the job is regarded as a powerful position when it comes to political influence in the financial industry. The White House even considered having her chair the S.E.C. - -However, her effort to get the seat on the board at the NCUA was not without opposition. According to Weisenthal, "A coalition of Senate Democrats and unions led by the Communication Workers of America [CEA] and the United Food and Commercial Workers [UFCW] lobbied to keep Dudley off the credit union board, fearing the president's choice would not be an 'objective,' impartial regulator." Warren "lobbied to keep Dudley off of the credit union board," according to the Times. - -Moreover, another group that wanted a board seat for Dudley was the Financial Services Roundtable, where former members of the Clinton Administration that advocated for Wall Street banks, like former Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, former Commodities Future Trading Commission Chairman, Gary Gensler, former Chair to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, and former Chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisors, Lawrence Summers, were the members. - -In an effort to put pressure on these opponents of Dudley's board appointment, Weisenthal said that, after the Senate Banking Committee was informed that Warren was going to pursue Dudley's appointment "at least a handful of the committee's Republicans joined it" in voting to confirm the nominee. Even the chair of the Federal Reserve, the influential Daniel Tarullo, who supported Dudley and was "one of [her] strongest supporters," voted "present" and voted "no" according to Weisenthal. - -In other words, Senate Republicans were willing to let Warren "do the work" and vote the seat away from a former Treasury Secretary, another White House appointee, and another pro-Wall Street bank nominee. As stated in the Senate Banking Committee's report on Dudley's appointment, the Obama administration went a more extreme route to remove the -======================================== SAMPLE 350 ======================================== -[This story is not yet complete, but we are posting it after we have contacted the owners.] - - -The dog-bite fatality of this past August in Florida has now been ruled a homicide by the Palm Beach County Medical Examiner's Office. The dog's owner has not been accused of any crime. - - -The incident occurred at 8:00 p.m. on Aug. 8, 2015 when the owner was leaving his house after returning to his job at a medical facility. As the owner approached his driveway, his dog — a 2-year-old boxer named Bailey — began sniffing him and then bit him on the side of the face several times. The bite was stopped when he pulled up, got on the phone with the dog's owner, and instructed the owner to take his dog to his vet for treatment. Two hours to drive to his car — and two hours to travel back — later, the owner arrived to find this news report : - - -"Bailey's body was unrecognizable...his ears were gone....his nose and lips were ripped...his jaw was fractured...his spinal cord was severed." - - -Two hours later, the owner returned to the emergency room of Dr. Robert C. Crain and found that the dog was still in critical condition. A week later, the dog died — this time, in surgery, in the emergency room of the Palm Beach County Veterinary Medical Center. - - -Crain wrote in an autopsy report that Bailey suffered internal damage, including multiple puncture wounds, to one eye, in a "stabbing manner." - - -According to his family friend, Bailey died as a result of the dog's bite.

I would have wished them to go to train by car, and, if they could do that on their own, I think it would be much easier and much safer for their families and for themselves. I wouldn't have wanted them to travel on the subway at night, because there were a lot of problems that took place on that train, not at night, but in the early hours, particularly if you're trying to get home." - -Adams' statement echoes those made by ex-member of the IRA, Denis Donaldson, who told BBC Radio Ulster's Nolan Show on Sunday that the children should have traveled by train and not the bus, as well as by the water, because of the dangers they would have encountered if taken by car or airplane. - -Adams' comments on Monday echoed those made by Donaldson on the programme, as he also insisted that the children should not have travelled out of the country, but that he would have taken them on his own "in a serious and permanent capacity." - -"You could see they were really excited and they had a great time in New York, but they wouldn't have gone to Ireland because they still had a lot of work to do and a big political question to get through, which they weren't the right kind of people to be going through," said Donaldson, who currently lives in the United States. - -Donaldson claimed the children were in fact "too young" for the trip, but denied that the trip was about the children. - -WATCH: Former IRA Commander Says Gerry Adams' Children Shouldn't have Traveled to the U.S. - -A spokesperson for Sinn Féin last month confirmed that the Sinn Fein president's children were on the trip, noting that Adams had a busy schedule of meetings this week after the fall of the political impasse led him to announce in front of a packed room at the European Parliament that the political impasse between the two sides of Northern Ireland was over. - -A spokesperson told Fox News, "It was made clear that the trip would provide an opportunity for Gerry and [political advisors Gerry Carroll, Gerry Kelly and Gerry Adams] to explore the possibility of the children continuing their education as they went to visit their family. This was in line with the Sinn Féin policy as set out in the Sinn Féin manifesto as reported in the newspaper this weekend." -======================================== SAMPLE 352 ======================================== -In a letter to Attorney General Loretta Lynch, which was obtained by Politico and which was signed by three dozen more former Justice Department officials, former attorneys general Alberto Gonzales, John Ashcroft, Dick Thornburgh and Richard Thornburgh argued there are serious questions surrounding the administration of ObamaCare and the legality of President Obama's actions in signing it into law. - -In their letter, sent on July 15, 2013, the former Justice officials outlined their concern, saying, "We are writing to emphasize that all federal employees are potentially covered under federal insurance exchanges established by ObamaCare. As the Administration's own regulations indicate, if any new federal employees receive health care on an Exchange administered by the Administration, they are also potentially covered, notwithstanding any individual mandate provision in the law." - -While there were numerous issues raised by the federal officials, the most important claim by the former Justice Department officials was that the administration's actions in signing ObamaCare were illegal and that there was a need for them to send a "letter of explanation" to the attorney general because of the legal "seriousness of the underlying legal issues." - -The letter further states that, "Although the Administration provided a two-page explanation to the Congress of what it claimed was the legal basis for the individual mandate on March 31, 2013, it offered no additional information on other aspects of the statute or on ObamaCare itself, the underlying legal issues that may underlie these actions or the steps the Administration is taking, including proposed changes to the rules and regulations governing federal workplace health care exchanges." - -The letter went on to state, "In our view, if federal employees receive health insurance on an exchange administered by the Administration that is the same as or substantially similar to coverage granted by the employer to which they were previously responsible, they may be subject not only to the mandate but to additional reporting requirements, penalties and the imposition of tax penalties not covered by the mandate." - -"We are concerned that the Administration is making decisions not in keeping with the law. While federal employees receive insurance through their employer and pay both employer-provided and themselves-provided premiums, the Administration is making decisions that impact their health benefit coverage for the first time," the letter states. - -The letter went on to state that former Attorney General Gonzales, who served as Attorney General of the United States from 1999-2005, served as acting attorney general when Lynch was confirmed as the next Attorney General by the Senate last week. - -While Lynch has indicated she agrees that ObamaCare is illegal, and in a press conference she said, "Well, I believe that the law is the law, and so, with the respect to that, if there are questions that the Department has at all, I'd like to take the opportunity to seek more information before I make a determination about how we can move forward on this particular issue." - -However, Politico points out that Attorney General Lynch has not offered any explanation. In fact, in her letter to Lynch, the former Justice officials are asking her to "declare that the individual mandate is unlawful and that any person who receives health care coverage through an Exchange created by the legislation is subject to the law." - -In a letter to President Obama, the former former DOJ officials wrote that the Obama administration's actions under ObamaCare are "fraught with legal questions" and that the administration needs to "take whatever measures are necessary to ensure that all federal employees, regardless of their title, receive adequate health insurance coverage." - -Additionally, the three former Justice officials questioned if the Administration is "properly interpreting or enforcing" the law, stating, "Congress, which is responsible for implementing the employer mandate, has provided only the broadest definition of 'substantially similar coverage' under the law, and the administration has largely left such interpretations to the EEOC and the courts in implementing the employer mandate. - -"In doing so, the administration is subjecting millions of employees to a form of double standards. In essence, the employer mandate requires some employees to purchase coverage from the employer, but does not require others to do so. Moreover, while the administration continues to assert that 'unlike' plans will be exempted from the employer mandate, the administrative record shows that the administrative definition was not consistently followed, and there is some evidence that it might not be. - -"Our conclusion that individuals in federal civilian agencies are covered under an Exchange administered by the Administration is based upon their statutory definition of 'the same plan,' including the definition contained in 42(a)(1), as well as statutory language from 28 CFR Sec. 2940.13(c)." - -The former Justice officials also said they "have serious doubts" about how the administration will treat state-based exchanges under the same rules as those operating in the federal exchanges. - -Read the letter to Lynch here:<|endoftext|>A top adviser to Donald Trump has reportedly claimed that Britain is trying to influence events in the US by buying up newspapers and TV channels. - -The controversial claims were made by Steve Bannon, the controversial advisor to Trump and his chief strategist, -======================================== SAMPLE 353 ======================================== -A man who was detained last month at a North Dakota airport has been cleared to be reunited with his parents. - -The Bismarck Tribune reports that a Bismarck judge on Thursday dismissed allegations and a warrant against 37-year-old William Michael Harris, who had been detained for hours on Oct. 23 at the Fargo-Moorhead border crossing. - -SPONSORED - -A magistrate's court judge ruled that the government had failed to prove that the man posed a significant threat to flight security or public safety, and he declined to issue the search warrant against Harris on that basis. - -Harris was traveling back to his hometown of Bismarck, North Dakota, after a trip to California where he helped organize a protest against fracking. Border Security Agent Joseph Wills, who is also charged with misdemeanor indecent exposure, made the initial detainment at the Fargo-Moorhead checkpoint despite Harris' repeated protests that he was a U.S. citizen and was on his way to his parents' funeral in North Dakota. - -Harris, who is being represented by attorneys Michael Boldin and Jennifer Young, told court Judge Bruce McMonagle that it was unfair for the agents to take him into custody because he had "done nothing" to warrant the stop on his return to his hometown. - -Harris told the court that as he was being forced to wait on the ground for several hours, agents removed his glasses, placed his hands behind his back and handcuffed him behind his back. - -The Associated Press reported that authorities reported finding marijuana in Harris' checked baggage. - -At one point during his detention, agents allegedly attempted to administer medical tests to Harris but he objected in protest. - -Judge McMonagle ruled that Harris' rights were violated and that he was detained based on a "fishing expedition" that "frightened, intimidated and humiliated" Harris. - -A spokesperson for U.S. Border Patrol said the agency will comply immediately with decisions from all district attorneys where Harris' case is headed and said they were not surprised by the court's decision. - -"Bismarck is a busy crossing, and there are many people who live outside of that county," he said.

The president's son-in-law, Senior White House Advisor Jared Kushner stepped down from his roles as president on multiple occasions and was removed from his position as a senior adviser Friday, July 21, 2017. (AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster, File) The Associated Press - -By JULIE JORDANS, AP National Writer - -WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's eldest son has told congressional investigators who interviewed him that he did not disclose his June 2016 meeting last summer with a Russian lawyer, as previously reported by The Associated Press. - -Jared Kushner's interview with the Senate Intelligence Committee came as a New York Times report suggested that he arranged the meeting so that his father-in-law could be shown compromising information about Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. - -The Times story said that after the meeting, Kushner said he was trying to establish a back-channel line of communication with Moscow. The newspaper said it obtained an email written by Kushner and seen by the Times which did not mention his participation in the meeting nor the Russian lawyer. - -"It has been incorrectly reported that I attended a meeting during the campaign with a Russian attorney and a Russian lobbyist," Kushner told House investigators from the Senate panel that has been investigating Russian meddling in the U.S. election and possible contacts between Trump associates and Russian officials. It is unclear whether Kushner gave a full account of what the meeting was about. - -The Times said that during the meeting, the lawyer told Kushner that incriminating information about Hillary Clinton was part of a Russian government effort to help the Republican candidate. The report said that although Kushner didn't initially mention the meeting to senior members of the campaign, he did mention it to Russian officials a few weeks later during a meeting at Trump Tower. - -Kushner's lawyers did not immediately return AP's request for comment on Kushner's meeting with investigators. It was not immediately clear if Kushner had volunteered information to congressional investigators or was being forced to speak out in advance of his testimony. - -The White House said Friday that Kushner had volunteered to participate in the June 8 meeting without any knowledge that it was to discuss a Russian effort to aid the campaign of Trump's Democratic opponent — as Trump Jr. had described. - -Kushner, who is married to Trump's wife, said Thursday that he had no recollection of the meeting. Trump Jr., who tweeted a photo of himself sitting in on the meeting, has since confirmed the existence of the meeting. In that tweet, Trump Jr. says he "primarily discussed a program about the adoption of Russian children that was active and popular with American families years ago and was since ended by the Russian government, but it was not a campaign issue at the time and there was no follow up." - -Kushner acknowledged to the Senate panel that his "primary recollection" from the meeting was that it focused on Russian adoptions. In a statement, he said: "As part of the discussion, I volunteered that I would be available to share with the committee my emails and other information regarding the meeting." - -The statement said that he had not told his father-in-law about the meeting "until this week," citing "concern that this disclosure could pose a conflict of interest." The Senate Intelligence Committee released the statement early Friday evening. - -Trump's son-in-law is the most senior White House official to be questioned by investigators probing Moscow's interference in the American election and any connections to the Trump campaign. His testimony is expected to take place sometime next week. - -It emerged last week that Trump Jr. agreed to meet with a Kremlin-linked lawyer, as well as a representative for the Russian leader, before he took office; his initial version of events that day was that the meeting focused on damaging information about Clinton. Investigators have said that the president was not aware of emails sent earlier in the year about the possible meeting. - -Last week, Trump's son-in-law said that he had "no memory" of the meeting, though CNN has reported that he shared information obtained in the meeting about the Democratic National Committee's finances as part of a Russian investigation. - -He has also said he "had no recollection" of receiving an email about meeting with an attorney for Natalia Veselnitskaya, who he was told had information helpful to the campaign. That statement conflicts with statements he made to the Senate panel, and with information he gave to the House Intelligence Committee. - -On Friday, Kushner said he had sought to learn about the meeting's attendees by consulting with top campaign staffers and his legal team, as well as "people I know in Russia." He called this effort a "good use of my time" when asked if he had discussed the meeting with anyone else on his campaign staff. - -======================================== SAMPLE 357 ======================================== -[Note for TomDispatch Readers: The paperback edition of Nation of Power is now available, if you'd like a bargain.

It's been going on for years, and now, with this latest, perhaps most unusual, American adventure, it's finally coming to a head. - -Just three months after a U.S. drone strike killed one of the men seen as Ayman al-Zawahiri's likely successor, Ayman Mohsen al-Masri, in Yemen, the Pentagon announced that it and other Central Command (CENTCOM), the unit charged with fighting American troops abroad, had dispatched what it called an expeditionary ground force to Saudi Arabia. Not so fast. The White House issued one statement later noting that "this is not an expeditionary force and does not represent an expansion of President Obama's previous authorization in 2011, which was a six-month commitment of approximately 50 U.S. military personnel." That's still enough of a hint of denial that one might be forgiven for thinking that these troops were on vacation. - -The announcement comes on the heels of the arrival of yet another contingent of Pentagon advisers to "train" the Saudi military in the fight against its neighbors. And there are more: Already there are "advisers" from the State Department, as well as from the Department of Homeland Security and FEMA, among others. And as the Pentagon puts it, these are just "informal" advisers, but these aren't like the advisers that "advise and assist" U.S. troops in the field. - -And let's forget about the fact that, for the last two decades, we have been doing precisely the opposite of "advis[ing]" our Saudi Arabian allies since our invasion began in 1990. While it's true that Saudi Arabia has been a U.S. ally in the Iran-Iraq War that started in 1980, and that it's been paying off a massive military subsidy to the United States, it's also true that, at this point, the United States and the Saudi kingdom have much more in common than either is willing to admit. In recent years, our two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have been waged, directly or indirectly, with money and assistance from Saudi Arabia's treasury. If you want to know how Saudi Arabia is using its enormous oil revenues to finance its military adventures in Yemen (and in Syria; see TomDispatch's latest dispatches from Syria), just skip ahead to chapter 11 of this series, "The Saudi Connection," for a peek at the evidence. - -At this late hour, before the latest crisis, the White House seems less than enthusiastic about adding to that evidence. After all, the U.S. already has several thousand troops in the kingdom. In January, it put "more than 50 advisors on the ground" in support of the Saudi-led campaign in Yemen. This summer it sent Special Operations forces to Yemen and sent an "adviser," the same person, to help train the Saudis, the White House said. In fact, that Pentagon person, Captain James Steele, was actually in the country to give Saudi Arabia an armored-vehicle demonstration to mark its "National Tank Day." - -Now here's the funny thing: The "advisers" and "trainees" just announced to the world are not, in fact, really advisers but special operations forces. These are special operations forces, of course, who have their own special headquarters in Riyadh (a Special Operations Command unit). This week, in fact, they also began "sustaining" a counterterrorism unit in Yemen, also known as "the Joint Special Operations Response Group," and which, among other things, has been engaged with U.S. drones and other special operations forces in the country. (When I wrote about this last year, I noted that, for all the apparent coolness of the special operations forces at large, the command they were working with is itself rather cool -- though that was before they were also working with the Pentagon-owned "Maritime Prepositioning Group 14"). - -This all may sound like a big diversion and a lot of paperwork -- but in truth, in the United States, this sort of thing takes place all the time. It's called "embedding." In fact, in the decade or so leading up to this latest intervention, the Pentagon has been embedding Special Operations forces and other special ops soldiers all over the Middle East, a far more effective strategy for accomplishing, in the words of the Bush administration, an "intensified campaign against Al Qaeda and its affiliates" -- -======================================== SAMPLE 358 ======================================== -This video game, first released on April 17, 2001, was developed by Game Freak.

Ash and his friends also meet a girl named Misty who will be joining Team Rocket in their new plan of getting rich with Pokémon. - -In B, the two people from whom Ash and his friends initially met, Professor Oak and his assistant May, are back in Kanto and living together again. After becoming friends through their shared love of Pokémon, Oak takes Ash on a field trip to the forest where his research is done. It is a wild and dangerous place, and Ash's team is caught as prey by a huge Treecko.

In battle, the game displays its opponent's stats through icons. Like most Pokémon games, it also allows for three different attacks during a battle, but unlike previous games, it displays the attack with which the opponent is most vulnerable: a small icon showing the move. However, unlike past games, this game allows for more Pokémon in a battle (12 on the game's first screen and 16 on later screens) and gives the player a choice of how many moves he or she can use during a battle. - -Although it is named Pokémon Adventures, it is not an adventure, but rather a simulation of a real traveling Pokémon League. Most of the game is filled with battles between Trainers to earn points, mainly to earn badges (most of which also give you better things to do in the game, like visiting other cities). It has many different cities and other areas to visit, but it is recommended players are familiar with this game's structure, as it is one of the most difficult games in the series. - -Items - -In the beginning, players pick a Pokémon from the starting seven as their starter. The player also gets a Pokémon holding the Heart Scale. The first three Pokémon in the starter family can evolve into a Pokémon with a name that follows that of its parent. After this, there are two more paths the player can go down. This leads to either one of three main Pokémon, Pokémon #35 (a Snivy), #40 (a Tepig) and #45 (a Oshawott). One of the most important factors to notice is that these Pokémon grow along with the player, instead of being added with every update. - -A Poké Ball can be used to catch wild Pokémon, but only if the player is in the first slot of the party. Each party member can only hold one Pokémon at a time. - -In the middle is a Poké Doll, which can make a Poké Ball into a Poké Ball 2 and give the player an item. Using it will require the player to take the Poké Ball for 10 Poké Balls to get a Rare Candy. However, it will only be available for the first day of the game; if it is not, the game will give a hint. - -The bottom line - -The bottom line of the screen shows the status of the player's Pokémon, Pokémon Eggs, Poké Doms and other items. - -Main article: Pokémon Red/Blue/Yellow - -Main article: Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal - -Main article: Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver - -Main article: Pokémon Pinball - -Main article: Pocket Monsters Platinum - -Main article: Pokémon GBA - -In the Generation II games, the bottom line can be used to change whether the trainer is a child, a Pokémon Trainer, a parent, or a brother/sister.

REUTERS/Cathal McNaughton - -A sharp slowdown in Britain's economy and the rise of anti-European parties like France's National Front and Italy's Five Star Movement has intensified fears about the health of the broader euro zone. - -The comments by London-based executives at the European firms and banks that control the pound could complicate a campaign ahead of a May 22 referendum by the British electorate to stay in the EU and secure the financial services' sector's biggest share of the bloc's $25-trillion economy. - -"With the vote on (a British exit) coming up (on May 22), there is an increasing likelihood that the pound will be weaker and the cost of hedging will go up, increasing the risk exposure of banks and corporations and possibly investors alike," said one of the bankers. - -"A significant proportion of the pound-denominated assets of our clients and institutions are in the form of euros, so for a lot (of them), hedging in euros and holding dollars, would make sense." - -The source, who declined to be named, told Reuters that some banks and companies might choose to avoid the euro zone altogether for business reasons, for which they would need to find alternatives, such as London. - -"The euro area will continue, of course, to have a strong, positive role to play," said the trader, who is based in the euro zone and declined to be named. - -He said that when hedging euros against the pound has led to losses, "the hedgers will ask why, and the reason is ... the euro area is going to weaken, and that means it will be less attractive ... it'll be harder to take profit." - -An economic slowdown in a currency bloc, such as the euro zone itself, is an immediate concern for financial markets. - -And while the euro zone remains a major economy, it has been sluggish for years, and the risks of a sudden fall in demand for euros would probably be greater for banks that hold more euros against the pound. - -"The euro area has always been slow in the first place, and there's been no reason why it shouldn't be more slow now," said the source. - -"We should see a faster growth of the euro area over the next few years, and if we see a bit of a slowing in the growth in the euro area, that could be a reason to be more critical of the euro zone," he added. - -The euro slid 0.4 percent at $1.0640 on the foreign exchange market as of 1133 GMT (3:33 a.m. EDT), underperforming the broader FTSEurofirst 300 index, and hitting its highest in almost three weeks. The single currency's weaker performance came on the back of a 1.8 percent fall in the euro against the U.S. penny to $0.8788. - -POTENTIAL FOR A MOSTLY CRITICAL RESET - -A recent fall in the euro helped the benchmark FTSEurofirst 300 index .FTEU3 rise 2.9 percent in 2014, but many expect a more significant rebound this year due to weak growth in the euro zone. - -The pound is worth almost as much as $1.29 after a sharp drop that occurred in 2008, when then U.S. President Barack Obama tried to prevent a U.S. bailout of the banks that caused the crash and a collapse of global financial markets and the global economy. - -But even the euro's weakness is not likely to be a game-changer for European markets, which are now expecting a sharp slowdown in growth. The euro's decline of 1.0 percent against the dollar and 0.6 percent against the yen on Tuesday put it on course to end 2014 on a two-year downtrend, despite the Bank of England's efforts to support it. - -There are concerns among analysts over the euro zone's ability to sustain recovery even though it could not, or would not, agree to bail out its banks. Germany said in May it was willing to provide an emergency backstop to the continent's southern banks. - -The sources said British investors' holdings of euro-denominated assets could also be at risk as fears over the euro continue to grow. - -"A number of these (bank) customers have very large hedging programmes, so a very, very substantial loss would be possible at some stage in the future," said one of the experts, who also declined to be named. - -"So the question becomes how do you hedge against that?" he added. - -"If you're an institution like Barclays -======================================== SAMPLE 360 ======================================== -The last two seasons have seen a huge improvement in the defensive line from the Dallas Cowboys last year after years of not even being able to stay out of the top ten of the "Fumble Plus" table. - -It is important to point out that this has been a top ten group for a long time now, and in some seasons they will finish in the top ten even after not having much improvement compared to what we now see. This is not an anomaly. - -This season, the defense has gone from 30th overall to 9th overall in the final five weeks after having slipped to 14th in the last two weeks following the Eagles game on Sunday afternoon. - -The final five weeks, in particular, have seen a lot positive improvement on the defensive line, with the line going from 19th overall the week before to 9th overall through the weekend, which is something that was previously considered a top ten unit. - -They did so by giving up the fewest total yards and third-fewest rushing yards through the weekend, both of which show a lot of improvement by the defense. - -It's a credit to the defensive line, which are continuing to put in more consistent effort, and also Dallas secondary. This is a unit that has shown its strengths and weaknesses all along, but after last year's disappointing season finale against the Giants, they did a great job of capitalizing on those weaknesses last year in Week 14 when the offense was playing from behind, including being able to force turnovers and limiting the yards that the Giants could throw. - -While it is true that this group got more help from the secondary at the end of last season compared to at the beginning, Dallas did get better overall from the front four through the season. This has continued this season too, with the front four having given up the second-fewest yards before contact in the league this season after giving up the least yards through the regular season. - -Overall, it has been a good season for the defensive line and it will be no surprise when the defensive line finishes with a strong finish to season as they have done the last two seasons.<|endoftext|>The latest trailer for "Penguins of Madagascar" has released to promote the upcoming film, which will hit theaters on March 18, 2016. - -The film is a story of two siblings named Kowai (Bart Eriksen) and Danko (John Boyega) who escape a secret laboratory in the island's jungle and take on a life of adventure in the pursuit of scientific discovery.

On December 9, it sued one of the largest distributors of illegal drugs in US history, Pharma Brokerage Services (PBSA), alleging that they were illegally funneling drugs to Mexican drug cartels. The DOJ is hoping that if they can stop them from doing this, then so will the cartels. - -What's the big deal? - -Over half of the heroin and cocaine imported into the US today comes from Mexico. The Mexican government has admitted they are fighting the cartels, who smuggle drugs on their territory and then ship the drugs north to get sold to the American public. And while some of the drugs do make it through the US and are then sold to law enforcement and other drug addicts, many cartels simply use the drugs to ship cocaine west in a way they've only ever done before, as they've never been forced to deal with border controls. - -There's now no reason for the cartels to have to deal with border controls or stop transporting their drugs north into the US. And the US is getting involved in helping keep heroin out of the country. - -The problem is that the DOJ has not found a single person guilty of a crime involved in this, and they still don't understand much about how the heroin actually gets to the United States. The US is now involved in an investigation of drug trade routes between Colombia and the United States, which are apparently being controlled by the Medelline Cartel. And what about Mexico? The DEA is involved with drug cartels to the borders of Mexico, but still doesn't have an understanding of how the drugs are being smuggled to and from the country. - -Why not just stop the distribution? - -So far, this is what the DOJ has had to do. In early 2012, they filed a lawsuit against PBSA, in hopes of stopping it from exporting cocaine and heroin to the US, and then importing them again. They wanted to prevent PBSA from sending drugs from Colombia into the US. - -They won. - -A US federal district court judge upheld the US government's case against PBSA, and then the district court ordered PBSA to pay a $1.5 million fine. But the department of justice hasn't won the war on drugs. The judge didn't give PBSA any legal recourse. In the end, the judge declared PBSA and its owners guilty of aiding and abetting the smuggling of illegal drugs. - -PBSA and its owners have no actual responsibility. The court basically ruled that they didn't "consplain" or "admit" anything when they were questioned, and therefore they were guilty of aiding and abetting. It was a very clear conclusion that the DOJ thought they had in mind with their lawsuit. It's why PBSA owner Charles Babcock was forced to file a motion to dismiss the case. - -Now they want to fight it in federal court? - -But the government wants a second crack at the case. They have also filed a motion to reopen the lawsuit, citing that as long as PBSA is involved, then drugs will definitely be going north. That's absurd, considering that, just days ago, the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) came out against another pharmaceutical company, AmerisourceBergen , for doing exactly that. - -AmerisourceBergen is one of the largest distributors in the country and claims to deliver drugs to the US only through the Port of Oakland. The US government didn't think that would solve anything, claiming that it would still enable the drugs to be smuggled into the country to sell to Americans. - -And now the case is set to move again. - -So the DOJ has now asked the court that they be able to "reopen" the case for PBSA, who has been fighting the US government to prove that they didn't violate the DEA's actions. - -And in a filing that they submitted in June, the US government argued that "the fact that the district court did not accept the government's interpretation of PBSA's alleged role as a conduit for illegally imported drugs is irrelevant." - -"We are deeply disappointed that Congress chose to change the original scope of the statute without even informing the public of its intent and without even a brief discussion on the Senate floor," Attorney General Eric Holder wrote in the filing. - -The DOJ argues that the case should be reopened because PBSA claims it is the "sole supplier" of drugs to Mexico and that if they were to stop dealing with the cartels, then drugs would go to the US, where they can be sold to Americans. - -"The court has made clear that we will not rest until we have obtained justice for all who have been harmed, and for the victims whose loved ones have been brutally killed," Holder wrote. - -Now the DOJ wants to fight it again. They've submitted another filing on December 7th asking for the judge to reopen the case for PBSA and to take the case to -======================================== SAMPLE 362 ======================================== -I am an old English guy, so the term "whip" is quite familiar to me. It comes into my vocabulary quite regularly: it's a slang term in British English for towing. In my native country England, you'd sometimes see it used in different slang terms, even in the local vocabulary. - -For example, the term "whip" is now quite ubiquitous in the English-speaking world nowadays. That being said, I do not use this term very often as I tend to be more familiar with the more modern terminology. - -Let's talk about "whipping". - -The origin of "whipping" - -"Whip" is a noun that has a slightly different pronunciation in British English than it does in American English. In British English, a "whipping" is any method or action that is applied to an unwilling victim that is known to be a weak or helpless person (i.e. a slave). - -In contrast, some Americans prefer to think of "whipping" as an "inhuman" and "dereliction" (i.e. degrading) form of punishment, which is something that was done only a few months ago or decades ago but nobody wants to talk about it. There are people who actually use "whipping" as an actual word for the act as a derogatory term. I'm not making any sense but I believe that there are people who still want to consider the terms "whipping" and "whip" as equivalent. They use the word "whippet" in their own ways but there is nothing that resembles "whipping a slave"…<|endoftext|>About This Game - -Story-driven - - -Exploration & Exploration - - -Misc. - -The story follows the life of a young boy named Tomori after he escapes a village and is transported to another world - - -He will discover and learn all kinds of weapons and magic - - -Different characters from different countries in the realm will join him on his adventure - - -The story can be played either as a standalone or as a side-story to the original game - -KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World! is a visual novel and an adventure game.The tale begins after Tomori is released out of prison at the start of the game.

It seems you need that installed to be able to open the Chrome Desktop app on Android. I tried Chrome on two devices now. The first got it on its first run. The second time, the Chrome Desktop went to a blank wall instead of a new Chrome Desktop showing up on screen. I know it wouldn't be that easy to have that problem on a device with Google Drive. Maybe it's a hardware or OS limitation. It could be that the app doesn't yet support Chromebox. I've not got it yet, so there's no point to try it out. But the fact that you can't get it to work at all, is very frustrating.

I love making things, it is just so much fun trying new things and seeing what results you can yield. I have a lot of experience with crafting projects I have been very fortunate to have learned from a great teacher and friend in high school who has been teaching me since I was a little girl. I think she taught me more about a good woodworking than anyone else. Every time I come home from work and the wood pile is full there is something new to make. For this project I used a box to give me a stable frame and a very rough edge. Once I hit an edge I would stop and scrape back down before starting again. The second week of this project I decided to add a handle and I put in a small wooden dowel to help hold the handle open.

The reality is that this conversation was part of the training that was given to our "Prayer Mentor" at Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament Church in the Philippines. - -Our team of volunteers, who are part of the International Research Center, prayed the Rosary before each Sunday mass. The goal of the Rosary was to help our "Prayer Mentor" to understand what the Rosary is and how to pray it for the healing of the "wounds" of our souls. - -Before the Rosary, our volunteers prepared a series of questions for their Missionary to ask when they were ready. For example, our volunteers asked: - -"How many years do you have left to live?" - -"How much money do you have?" - -"Do you have any health conditions?" - -"What are your concerns?" - -Our "Prayer Mentor" was taught how to pray the Rosary by our team of volunteers who had been involved in similar situations at St. Margaret's Hospital when they were younger. - -The "Prayer Mentor" had previously been asked to participate in a similar program, but he had not yet fully understood the Rosary's purpose and its effectiveness. - -When Our Lady appeared before him one day, he was healed. The prayer of the Rosary helped to guide him as he was led to the Church, and he experienced a special moment of joy…a "fountain of blessing", as our Filipino volunteers put it. - -We invite you to read the following short story about the "Prayer Mentor". After the story is read, check out the photo gallery of "Missionary 1" being healed by the Holy Rosary, and then take the Rosary and go to the Blessed Sacrament Church in the Philippines to experience the healing of your soul. - -Our story begins when our Missionary 1 visited the Blessed Sacrament Church in the Philippines with a team of Filipina volunteers, and he arrived before Mass.

While this protein is usually found as a normal part of the blood to help the body fight off infections and inflammation, the concentration in the brain has never been known to rise above that seen with patients with high blood pressure. - -The inflammatory response in the brain could account for patients' higher risk of stroke, memory loss and other cognitive issues, the researchers explained. This work was supported in part by the National Institutes of Health and The American Heart Association. - -"Because C-reactive protein is a marker for inflammation that, when elevated, can result in the damage and dysfunction of blood vessels and other organs, our study suggests that elevated C-reactive protein in the brain may be the biological hallmark of CVD, the main cause of heart attacks and stroke," said Jeffrey S. Karp, PhD, Director of the Perelman School of Medicine and a corresponding author of the study. - -"However, we know very little about inflammation in the brain and how it impacts brain diseases," said Dr. Karp, who is also an associate professor at Harvard School of Public Health. "We think this research will help us better understand this complex relationship in all its complexity." - -C-reactive protein was measured in blood samples from more than 2,000 people, about half of whom had hypertension, according to the study. These individuals were also given a drug to lower the blood pressure they already had by one unit. The blood samples were also tested for inflammation. - -Researchers measured C-reactive protein to determine the level of inflammation in the brain, then compared this with normal levels of this protein in the blood. In the brain, this protein was often higher, indicating more inflammation, with the highest readings recorded for patients with hypertensive disease. This could account for the higher risk of memory loss and other cognitive issues seen in these patients, the researchers said. - -Other research has also linked high blood pressure to high rates of inflammation in the brain, but the new results demonstrate that the response in the brain is much more pronounced between people with hypertensive disease and healthy people. Previous findings suggest that this immune response in the heart and vascular system is also more pronounced among people who are obese, the study noted. - -"In healthy individuals, the inflammatory response is usually low, so it is quite surprising to then find that in people who have hypertension, the response is far greater than normal," said Dr. Mireille DiMicco, PhD, co-senior author of the study and Department of Surgery, Department of Surgery and Chief of Vascular Surgery, Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, in a prepared statement. - -A follow-up study is planned to look at the blood and inflammation levels in patients who had undergone major surgery and those who had not. - -"This is the first time that high blood pressure has been linked to this type of inflammatory response to a chemical in the body," said J. Michael DiPietro, MD, a professor of Medicine oncology at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, who was also affiliated with the study. "This study has important implications for our understanding of brain diseases, both those that we already know are linked to hypertension and those that we are still learning about." - -"It is a good example of a study where multiple disciplines come together to create a more comprehensive picture," Dr. DiMicco said.

"We are definitely not looking at it as a hockey fight." - -The Flyers have won two rounds this year and four of the past six regular-season games, but the Flyers have also been outscored 5-3 in the games since Thursday night. They were 1-0-1 for a month-and-a-half before the fight. - -"I saw (Dzingel) coming back and I just hit him a little bit," Flyers defenseman Claude Giroux said. "It's not a big deal. You have to be smart at hockey games." - -Schenn has two fights this postseason: one involving Cody Franson against Toronto last week and another in Toronto, when he punched a ref. - -"He's the kind of player that you don't like to do that.

He just doesn't have the ability to do it.<|endoftext|>The following is an excerpt from this book. - -A few months before I started reading The Man Who Would Be Pol Pot, the former head of Cambodia's internal security, I had a chance to chat with Pol Pot in his office. A mild-mannered middle-aged man, who had been known for years as just about the only man in his country who knew who was really in power, now dressed in a suit like a typical middle-aged man I know. But one thing stood out about him the moment I met him for the first time: the long ponytail he was wearing with an untied back hair. - -He has just completed a tour around the country as the official face of "The Party's Revolution." He had taken part in public appearances throughout the country, at the university, during the national elections, and he was at the forefront of this week's march along the streets of Phnom Penh. At the time of the interview he was wearing a pair of dark brown shoes and a blue shirt with a silver button. My first impression was that he was just like every other businessman or politician I've encountered who has taken part in the Cambodian political arena in recent years. Like all of them, he was courteous and warm and I hoped that maybe, just maybe, he had not gone too far. - -Before our interview, Pol Pot had already made a number of statements in the media. In one instance from 2010, he said that he didn't want his name written on the monuments and statues honoring the Khmer Rouge which are on a lot of major urban streets in Cambodia, a statement likely to create the impression that he was associated with the Khmer Rouge and that he had been an official of the party. As long as he remained quiet on their nature, Pol Pot probably wouldn't have to worry all that much about being labeled a Khmer Rouge supporter. - -I was somewhat skeptical of this statement, even though it didn't have to do with Cambodia. My skepticism was only heightened by the fact that some of the most prominent public figures in Cambodia have publicly declared their distaste for the Khmer Rouge. Perhaps it's time to take a step back and look at Pol Pot's statements in more comprehensive context. - -It's no secret that Pol Pot, a charismatic yet ruthless communist leader, made a number of mistakes at times during his long regime. Even from the beginning, he had some problems with his reputation in Cambodia. He was frequently accused of mass executions, rape, slavery, and the torture of children as young as infants. Although there is no way to prove these types of accusations, it certainly seems that the Khmer Rouge were responsible for most or all of those crimes. - -In fact, although Pol Pot is credited as having ordered the genocide of the Khmer Rouge, many historians and many of the victims of the genocide believe that both the regime in general and Pol Pot himself have actually been the ones responsible. - -Pol Pot's claims with regard to the Khmer Rouge have frequently been dismissed as mere propaganda, but despite this, he is still the figure most easily recognized for the atrocities that he and his regime committed through the 1970's. His statements, whether they were accurate or -======================================== SAMPLE 367 ======================================== -In late November, the Texas Supreme Court agreed to hear a state case that could, if it stands, dramatically change the way Texas investigates and punishes child abuse within the criminal justice system, by placing an absolute ban on the use of physical force, or "a mere reprimand," in child maltreatment cases. The lawsuit was filed by the Southern Center for Human Rights and the American Civil Liberties Union. - -The Texas case was brought by two 12-year-old boys, Ryan and Sean O'Bryan, who claim that a neighbor, Cynthia L. Martin, had "forced them to drink bleach." The boys and Ms. Martin are black. The case has a twist: The boys claim that Ms. Martin called them "n****rs" and then pushed two of her children into a swimming pool, and that Ms. Martin then locked them out. The case involves one of the most extreme examples of racial discrimination in Texas and it has national implications that go well beyond just one family. - -This was actually the second time that the O'Bryan brothers had sued their neighbor. In 2014, Ms. Martin filed a civil lawsuit against both of them. The civil case was thrown out, citing prosecutorial immunity. In 2015, the Supreme Court denied Ms. Martin's petition to revive the case, and in turn, Ms. Martin asked the Supreme Court to hear the case. The case has been sitting in limbo since last fall. This week, the O'Bryan boys asked the Supreme Court to hear the case. - -In Texas, the O'Bryan boys say, a single parent, who has no custodial responsibility, must prove "justifiable justification" in child maltreatment cases in order to obtain a criminal conviction. This makes the legal system far more permissive than in most other states. A child who witnesses the alleged maltreatment is usually absolved of all responsibility. And, as the legal defense of the late Antonin Scalia pointed out: "If a parent had beaten his child, he'd have a legal right to beat his child and nobody would tell him he couldn't. If a parent had been drunk and hit his child, nobody would tell him he couldn't stop drinking and hitting his child." - -As the state's top lawyer, John Cornyn, said recently, "The state of Texas does not have an interest in shielding perpetrators from justice. The state has an interest in punishing them. It's pretty simple. So when a prosecutor says, 'This doesn't count. It's not enough to say the victim was forced to drink bleach,' the next step is to get somebody to show me justifiable justification, so I can say, 'Let's start a prosecution.'" - -The Supreme Court has rarely agreed to hear a case involving racial discrimination. Indeed, since the Obergefell decision this summer, the state Supreme Court has only declined to hear at least four separate state-level cases about criminal justice issues, involving the death penalty, affirmative action, voting rights, and even state-funded school prayer. And in none of those cases did the justices say that the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to sue, a major legal standard. - -At a hearing in January, Chief Justice Rehnquist told the lawyers for the O'Bryan brothers that they should tell him by February if they want to go forward. If not, Mr. Cornyn argued, they should move forward with a lawsuit in Austin by September. But, Justice Kennedy said, "If you want a quick decision, this isn't how you go about it." He agreed with the lower court that there was no standing to bring a case before the Supreme Court. - -In fact, since the O'Bryan boys sued, at least four other states have passed "stand your ground" laws, which offer a legal defense of "stand your ground" as long as you believe that it's reasonable to use deadly force to stop a violent crime. That would make Texas' law the second nationwide. The District of Columbia has long had it; it is now being considered as a possible model state for the federal "stand your ground" law. Other states, like Arizona, have already passed stand your ground laws. - -Mr. Cornyn had a hard job selling the "stand your ground" law to the court. The attorney general of Florida, Bill McCollum, said that stand your ground laws "puts the burden on the shooter to disprove his claim to be under attack," and that "there is no doubt the right to defend oneself is constitutionally protected." Texas' chief justice agreed with Texas law enforcement officials that the state's law was "not intended to restrict the rights of law abiding citizens to use deadly force in self-defense." - -"The fact that the law recognizes a duty to retreat is not a burden," Chief Justice Kennedy countered. His colleagues agreed, in part because the Supreme Court has traditionally accepted the theory that self-defense only depends on the exigent circumstances under which the person believes he is in danger. -======================================== SAMPLE 368 ======================================== -What's new here - -This is an old version of the game.

But in order to win a championship in the NFL, it's important to at least be a contender for now.

In addition, dwarves and their pets can carry items and use beds, furniture, containers, traps and the like and can build structures and workshops. This article will cover the various types of dwarves and their uses. See 'Characteristics' for other attributes. - -edit] Dwarves - -In terms of attributes, dwarves are fairly simple. They will not carry any gear, will not craft any items with leather, and will have minimal training. However, as long as they are kept in an active labor, they may train as much as any human. The only thing dwarves don't have in common are weapons. A dwarf is only slightly more formidable than you. - -There are several attributes that affect gameplay. All of these attributes can be toggled at embark or via the in-game config menu. Some can be temporarily altered in the menus: - -edit] Dwarven Intelligence - -Intelligence is a measure of one's intellect. Intelligence determines your chance to successfully create traps, construct rooms, and mine. - -Intelligence can go up by training with weapons, using workshops, and learning from books.

Among the highlights is HTTP/2 for HTTP/2, an important upgrade which provides the basis for the upcoming HTTP/2 protocol and the corresponding protocol version 2.2. - -In HTTP/2, the most useful and important new feature is HTTP/2 header compression, enabling the encoding of data that is often unreadable by the browser when it is fetched over the wire. This is possible to use because there is a compression algorithm that does a better job than the algorithm commonly used by clients, which has the downside that the user sees the size of the content. - -If you're using the old protocol, you'd receive a 404 notice when the header is compressed because the size is not shown in the header. If you're using the new protocol, the user would get a notice like this. - -HTTP/2 makes it easier to transfer large files, such as video, even if the server is over slow or unreliable connections. This allows web servers to serve these large files faster, making sites like Youtube much faster — which allows them to sell more subscriptions. - -This is all great for the open web, but not if the majority of your users are on the slow or unreliable Internet. With HTTP/2 enabled by default on every web server, there is a good chance that the web server won't know how to deliver a large file. - -Thankfully there is technology already available to help make large file transfers more efficient. One of the most popular compression techniques, JPEG compression, is now handled by the WebRTC technology used in many mobile applications. - -WebRTC is an improvement over HTTP because HTTP does not support the technology, so it's essential that the web server support this to make sure that the web experience is smooth and the user experience is as good as possible. - -We'd love to hear what you think about the improvements in the W3C Specification for HTTP/2. - -Further Reading:<|endoftext|>In this case I had to go back into the old one to re-import a few. - - -You have only 8 options here if you want to set up a new user, and one you don't want to take advantage of. - - -1.

But there is nothing a consumer can do to avoid losing a package unless the sender specifically consents to receive a lost item or to receive an item damaged in transit, she said. - -The stoppage is expected to disrupt the delivery of several thousand items, most of them mail. Among those is a brand-new television, valued at about $4,100, that is a gift from an online store. - -"They can either accept the TV and get what they want by the time the holidays are over and send a nice note, or they can get the money back and be happy," said Karen Nellis, a spokeswoman for the online retailer. - -A consumer also could make a claim to the store — usually an out-of-state seller — for the money lost, Nellis said. - -There are two kinds of packages handled by USPS, first class and Priority Mail.

Priority Mail, which packages letters, also takes about eight to 10 days at a slow pace. - -A package weighing less than 20 ounces must still be returned by the receiver, because first class does not provide a tracking number, Nellis said.<|endoftext|>As part of the ongoing expansion of the park in recent years, a series of trails that had been cut short of the original construction footprint are being reconnected to provide access to trails that would either be unavailable to park visitors or would otherwise cause disruption to the surrounding community.

The Greenback Trail is accessible on foot from the west and west and east from the park boundary. - -The Great River Trail is accessible on foot from the park boundary to Park Drive, and is approximately 16.25 miles and a total distance of 1,100 yards. It is an 18-foot wide linear trail that runs for approximately three-quarters of a mile in a southerly direction. The trail offers great views of the park and the river and has a variety of hiking trails including rock climbing, a rock-climbing wall, an abandoned railroad bed, a few miles of flat and rolling terrain, and several other routes that you can explore.

It could make it cheaper for broadcasters to pull the plug on their television stations and let cable firms buy them up for pennies on the dollar. - -Broadcasters have lobbied against this, which they say would reduce the amount of money available to them to operate TV stations. - -A cable subscriber must receive no less than 51 percent of the broadcast television license fee from stations that air in the broadcast television market. - -Broadcasters that want to sell or drop their broadcast television stations will have to pay a fee to the government of $3 billion. In addition, the FCC is proposing new rules to require that any person who wants to buy a TV station has to make a bid that is at least one-third of the license fees that stations receive in the market. - -This measure would prevent a potential bidder from simply buying a license fee that would be too small, making the bid much less attractive to broadcasters. If the FCC also had other ways of enforcing compliance with the bid requirement, it could get more money from the market. - -This measure would prevent a potential bidder from simply buying a license fee that would be too small, making the bid much less attractive to broadcasters. - -A second measure would allow cable companies that sell broadcast television stations to negotiate lower rates with broadcasters. - -The FCC would not seek to change the rules for the industry because it already has strong rules in place. - -The FCC and TV programmers have been working for years to overhaul the industry, which has been a source of revenue for broadcasters in a time when the number of viewers has plummeted.

They searched all over Japan, but it's impossible to find any restaurants that serve real Daiseyi. So, we set out on a mission and searched the Web to find all the Daiseyijus (Daisei restaurants) in Japan, because the Food Network didn't show any Daiseyijus. It turned out that Daiseyijus were hard to find in Japan, so we contacted Daiseyiju, a Daiseyiju is a Japanese restaurant that specializes in Daiseyijus. We sent out a request to the restaurants and they were very eager to answer the question. We've collected the answers to the most common questions on Daiseyijus. Enjoy! - -1. How to determine the quality, authenticity, and authenticity levels of raw fish? - -A.: The "Raw Fish Rating System" is a method of determining the quality and authenticity levels of raw fish when serving sushi. Raw fish is not something that one should ever eat raw, and the "Raw Fish Rating System" has been devised in order to promote fish restaurants to serve safe raw fish products, especially when serving raw fish in the United States. - -Each dish on the "Raw Fish Rating System" consists of three ratings: - -A fish rating of "1" means that it should be cooked and served fresh right off the fish stand without any further cooking like sashimi and other fish dishes. - -A fish rating of "2" is a raw fish dish that a chef or sushi chef should allow time to fully cook without any further cooking in order to allow the fish to fully develop its fragrance and taste. - -A fish rating of "3" means that a raw fish dish served at a sushi restaurant in the United States must be cooked and served immediately upon payment from the customer even at the restaurant's table. - -This rating system was devised by Tsukiji fish market, which is located on the northern end of Tsukiji fish market, the largest fish market in Japan. The "Raw Fish Rating System" was first introduced to Japanese restaurants by Daiseyiju, which is one of the Daiseyiju in Tokyo. Many restaurants began using the rating system and Daiseyijus, including Daiseyiju, began rating their sushi dishes as "1" when serving raw fish. - -If you don't find a restaurant that offers raw fish ratings, ask the chef or head sushi waiter how they rate their restaurants' raw fish dishes. Most Japanese people would assume that the Japanese don't eat raw fish dishes, but this system does not distinguish between the two different styles that raw fish is prepared in Japan; raw and cooked fish is offered to the public at most fish restaurants in Japan. - -2. How many different types of rice can people eat at the same time? - -A.: No one has the right to stop you from eating "raw" rice. This is why the raw fish rating system was devised: to encourage raw fish restaurants to serve more "raw" raw fish dishes that don't require any further cooking. It's also very difficult to determine what is "raw". - -The Japanese say that sushi chefs eat a lot of fish and only a small portion of it has been cooked. So, if you eat "raw" rice, then the sushi chef should have "raw fish". In Japanese culture, if you eat "raw" raw fish, then your soul or spirit is "raw". However, if a chef were to serve a sushi dish that has been cooked and prepared thoroughly, then that sushi dish is considered "cooked". - -3. Is sushi a health food or a food for fun? - -A.: The word "sushi" was first used in the late 16th century and came from the Japanese word for fresh water fish that are prepared by boiling them. - -The word "sushi" in Japanese comes from the Japanese word for fresh water fish that are prepared by boiling them. Because sushi restaurants are so popular and there is a lot of interest in sushi, many restaurants offer sushi that is served with raw fish. The sushi offered in a Japanese restaurant should, of course, be cooked properly, but as long as it's not raw, then the diners would enjoy it. - -4. What is the difference between "real" sushi and fake sushi? - -A.: Because Japanese sushi dishes are cooked "raw" in order to be served, they should have no taste or odor of raw fish, so it's important to be sure when you purchase it, that the dishes were cooked without any heat. If the dishes did have the smell of raw fish, many people would not want to eat it, especially when it came in containers containing boiling water. - -5.

But the odds may not change too much, according to Dr. Kevin Esvelt, a University of Washington oncologist who has treated more than 600 children born through IVF treatments. - -About 2,000 babies have been born through IVF annually in the U.S. so far. Esvelt isn't at all surprised that some of those will produce boys; babies who are conceived in the same way as female embryos often come out female. - -"It's not a very high probability," he says. In an upcoming study, published in Molecular Cell, Esvelt and his colleague, Dr. John A. Galt, of the University of Minnesota, compare the risk of producing an extra X or Y chromosome to producing a baby who has only a Y chromosome. - -"That's a little higher, but still much lower than we've seen in embryos produced by noninvasively," says Esvelt. "We don't know whether the noninvasively produced babies are actually the same children as the ones born via IVF. But we have to be very careful not to overstate the magnitude of the risk in the noninvasively [produced] population." - -Because of a genetic mutation, people who produce a third X or Y chromosome after conceiving usually end up having only a single Y chromosome, as if that chromosome wasn't there, says Esvelt. Even so, those same people have "at least" 40 or 50 sex chromosomes, he says. "But many sex chromosomes are inactivated."<|endoftext|>We have the perfect home for your team at the 2018 New England Aquarium Aquatics Festival.

This gave the market some time to digest the information and think about if it was fair. We can now finally provide some clarification. Here are some of the things you may have missed in the article. - -Oil demand fell by 6.7 mb/d in the quarter, the largest decline in seven years. The oil price declined by around 16% in the quarter, after being as high as $115/bbl in April. - -Gasoline demand fell by 3.8 mb/d in the quarter which will lead to significant reductions in refineries running and in refining capacity. - -Gasoline will likely come back to around $2/gallon in the next three to five years. - -Oil refinery outages are not the only negative impacts of low oil prices. Oil tankers are not being fully filled at the ports while the demand for crude is declining. In addition, as an increasing amount of refineries close, we are seeing the number of people using gasoline and other products to meet local needs decreasing at the rate of 1 million per day. This is going to be a big issue for our current infrastructure. - -The oil and gas industry has done its part to contribute to reducing emissions worldwide. The industry now accounts for about one third of clean energy investments globally (see here for more information on clean energy investments and emissions reduction). Oil and gas companies now have over $5.4 trillion to invest in the energy efficiency and renewable energy systems needed for a successful future economy. In addition, oil and natural gas production is responsible for more than 50% of all U.S. energy production. They are building new facilities to meet the long-term demand for their products. - -Even despite the fact that demand for oil decreased by 6.7 mb/d in the quarter, there was a notable increase in refinery capacity utilization from 70.5% to 80.9%. - -There has been a rise in the use of alternative fuels, from 8.7% in 2011 to 10.4% in 2013. For comparison, the United States is just 4% efficient with gasoline use (EPA standards average 66.2%). - -We are seeing a shift of some of the largest refiners away from oil and toward renewables. - -Source: Global Energy Outlook, International Energy Agency - -Source: Bloomberg BusinessWeek - -This article was written by Michael James and originally appeared on Oilprice.com and was used with permission.<|endoftext|>There are 3 summaries for S.1868. -======================================== SAMPLE 375 ======================================== -This is the fourth and final part of 'The Losing Ways' series. This article was written by a lot of people, but was mostly done by me. You can read the previous three parts here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 - -Here's the complete list of things that I have experienced which I have now come to realize is what I was conditioned to think were 'negative' things. - -1. Being treated as an 'outsider'. - -I was constantly being told that I was a 'stupid foreigner'. If I came off as non-Japanese I would almost always receive responses such as "how dare you think of yourselves as foreigners instead of Japanese" or "what the hell kind of language are you spewing out there? You're going to annoy me". I'd also get comments like "Do you have a sense of respect for the Japanese people?" or "I bet you're not Japanese enough and you should learn to act a little better on your trips outside the country." On various occasions I've been told to "get back to the right country" or "be thankful you're not even Japanese". - -2. Being seen as weak. - -On a trip a couple months ago I was walking from one hotel to another when I bumped into a group of about 4 or 5 Japanese men. They were talking and laughing all the way through and I thought it was funny until a couple of other men in the group began taking selfies. - -One of the men stopped and started yelling at me in Korean saying "Why are you taking photos in Japan? Why would we want to have your photos taken like that? How dare you take a picture of your legs!?" - -A fellow Japanese woman also came along and began asking me the same thing, "What kind of language are you spewing out there? Do you have a sense of respect for our people? Do you have a sense of respect for other people's cultures? Come on man, that's a little rude." - -I honestly wasn't really paying attention to these three people. They were just talking amongst themselves, but the words coming from their mouths were being translated into English like my own brain. I could sense that they were pissed off and that one of them was pretty angry that I was walking down the street without any kind of ID. When I'd turn to look around to see who was mad at me I'd see all three people talking amongst themselves and it wasn't long between me and another Japanese man who decided to come up to me and ask me if I was okay, which I felt weird about. Finally one of the other men who was yelling at me began to walk away and he made a comment about something and I thought, "Well, if I hear that kind of talk from anybody again I'm leaving this person alone." - -It never occurred to me, until I saw the photo I took the first time. It was in the middle of the city – in a crowded area – and I was walking by myself. - -I took those photo, I thought to myself. I don't want to be talking in my own language and having somebody hear me in my own language. I really don't need to be doing that anymore. I'm going to be more careful. - -In spite of this I continue to come across people who are very close to me and I wonder sometimes if the people I really want to see really know me. Sometimes, even though I've been with them for several years at this point, I feel like I'm just being used as a human ATM to exchange money. - -3. Being treated as a parasite. - -This, again, has happened several times, but my biggest recent run in with this issue is last summer when I went to Okinawa to visit my grandmother. My grandmother was one of the most prominent and influential women of the Edo era and the one who raised me when I was a small child. It was my intention to spend the trip there with my grandmother, but I also had a lot to do with promoting Okinawan culture outside of Okinawa and to do that I needed to go to places like Osaka. - -It was just a few days before I was to return home to the US when I went to Hakodate and bought some souvenir photos of my friend Haruka from that summer. When I arrived to go down the escalator and was about to enter the station I noticed that every single person in the station was holding their iPhone in one hand and a big bag of their favorite souvenir. It was one of those moments when you're totally confused because you think the person holding the big bags is not going to leave the other one hanging up there for a while. I'm assuming that was in my head, because after I got off the escalator, the people who weren't holding the big bags left as well. - -This went on for several minutes then people started to realize that this was not really in line with their policy. Some of them started -======================================== SAMPLE 376 ======================================== -If he has his way, Texas Sen.

Dan Patrick, Cruz's primary opponent. The ad makes clear it's not just Cruz's record on immigration that's been attacked, but a record on Patrick's record too. - -"This guy is an abject failure as a U.S. senator," Cruz says in the ad. "No, listen to what Patrick has done. Look at the mess he started. Ted Cruz fought to stop Common Core in Texas, but Patrick blocked all attempts to audit Common Core and his own state budget. Ted Cruz fought to defund Planned Parenthood, but when it came down to an election, Dan Patrick was the biggest abortion-supporting liberal in the Senate. He's never been a conservative in his life." - -The Cruz campaign also posted on Twitter that they would be releasing a full mailer featuring the spot on Friday, along with a list of its top 20 donors. - -The Cruz campaign released this week's ads as they released separate statements on the candidates' respective presidential prospects. Cruz and Patrick announced Thursday night it was ending their run for Senate, but a spokesman later said the two were still discussing a potential primary matchup next year. - -The Texas Tribune thanks its sponsors. Become one. - -The Cruz campaign said it is not ready to make an endorsement in the primary race, but made clear its primary goal is defeating Trump in a primary contest, even though they're not focused on one primary race at the moment.

It's what has allowed me to have success with many of my productions. I've learned from the best of the best, and it's helped me expand my vision as an artist. It has also given me insight into what is wrong with the way it works and what needs to be done to keep it strong. - -In this article I'll be looking at my process for working with the Push. But before I get to that, lets look at what Push is and why I use it. - - -Why Push: - -Push is a powerful automation tool that is open source and free to download and use. I've learned more from working with Ableton Push than any other software application. It's what has taken me from a complete novice into being able to successfully produce at a professional level. - -Push is powerful in that it allows you to create sequences that can be linked together into a project. For example, here's an example of the Push sequencer working: - -Now what many producers might not know is that when you start writing sequences in this way, you can also have it generate additional events in your project as well as your MIDI files. This allows you to create scenes and musical cues that take advantage of what Push has to offer. - -The Push is the only software application I can think of that allows you to take advantage of that. I've written a great tutorial for learning this, so follow that link to be able to create your own sequences and cue points. - -Here's an example of how using this technique can help you to create sequences. - -Let's say you want the sequence to move through the sequence. You can use Push's timeline (or the same functionality in many other apps like FL Studio) to map that sequence to a particular button on your keyboard. For this example i'll be mapping the buttons to some chord sequences (1 2 3 4). - -To get started, grab some MIDI (I usually use Logic or Ableton but some software like C64 works as well). - -Now you can assign specific button values to the buttons you wanted mapped. In this example I've made two buttons mapped to "A" and "D" (note that I've named the -======================================== SAMPLE 377 ======================================== -Bartenders who take their music and music theory too seriously and forget the basics are usually the most miserable people in their professions. Unfortunately, the way bartending is taught and performed by bartenders tends to reinforce this unfortunate assumption and leave bartenders unprepared for the problems they'll face in the kitchen that come along with their knowledge. That's why, instead of focusing on the theoretical, I'm going to provide some of my own practical experience and advice as I take you through the basics of what bartending actually entails in a modern-day establishment. I'll also talk about some of the differences, such as bartenders, which can drastically alter the way you view bartenders. - -A good bartender, unlike a great one, knows that the customer is never going to get his/her money's worth on the first meeting and should always have their attention to the customer's overall satisfaction. A poor bartender takes an opportunity to show off how great they are to the customer and, even though they know it hurts the customer, they still take one more step beyond the standard service expected by the customer to receive. I think we all know that the customer doesn't care who the bartender is and if they have a certain preference from a certain bartender, they'll be unhappy with that bartender regardless of who else is in the bar. - -Bartenders spend a lot of money on things, so it is important that they're comfortable spending money. This means spending on things that are not essential for basic tasks at work but that they are comfortable spending because they're needed to serve customers as well as other bartenders are. - -If it's only basic things, such as cleaning out glasses, bartenders should consider doing them themselves but, if things can go wrong in the kitchen and the customer is going to have their drinks ruined it's better to at least ensure that a bartender is present that can help if the situation is a little out of control. - -Most people do not have a background in music theory and, as a result, a bartender has to know what they're doing. There is simply too much going on with things like mixing ingredients and preparing drinks to not know when to use each of these things in conjunction with others. - -Here are a few examples of mixing the two with their basic responsibilities in mind. - -Mashing - -When preparing a drink, a lot of the time mixing will not be necessary. Instead of adding ingredients to a solution, bartenders will add things just before serving, before they're finished mixing the mixture. These things are called "mashing" because a mixture of ingredients is added and then heated to get it ready for the person that will drink from it. - -Sometimes, however, you have to keep things from getting too hot in the mixer or it will be difficult to get ingredients to mix together properly. You wouldn't leave it on too long or you wouldn't leave it sitting out too long if you were trying to get ingredients ready. - -For example, you wouldn't be able to mix a strawberry jam with a cream soda if it's too hot. You have to stop it from getting too hot by removing the ice as fast as you can. If you don't have ice to remove, you have to take them over to the bar and pay $5 for a replacement (or $3 if you have an automatic machine) so the bar can get ice in the mixer and your bartender can have something to drink without getting toasted. - -Mixing with sugar - -Most people have a taste to sugar and it's something that they love. It's that same taste that they also know is incredibly common throughout the world and it's always available. Even though sugar is not technically "liquid," it just sits in the mixture until it becomes more concentrated. It doesn't evaporate (and is very difficult to separate out, since it takes that long to dissolve in sugar) and it's not as easy to mix it into everything because it's a thicker solution. - -There are many ways to mix a drink with sugar which can be explained with examples, such as ice from an ice cooler, soda, etc. As a bartender it's your job to know how to mix a drink, both in terms of the ingredients and with the different types of sugar you'll find in the mix or available in the store. - -If you've done it once, you know it - -When I started out when I was still a bartender I didn't know a thing about basic tips and tricks pertaining to bartending. I thought that just because I was a bartender that everything that went right would. I also thought that most people would be more skilled bartenders than they actually are. It takes a long time and a lot of hard work to become something as well-rounded of a bartender as I am and it'll take a long time and a lot of hard work to be one that I can respect in the same way. - -If you've taken on this job you know your basics and that you can understand -======================================== SAMPLE 378 ======================================== -As an example of the wide variety of services that can be provided at no cost to a patient, I've chosen to talk to you today about a service that involves a few things called "Conducting Anecdotal Observations," as described in the Patient Care Guideline from the American College of Cardiology (ACC). In fact, my colleague and friend John Jorgensen, a cardiologist from Florida, is a consultant in this area of Cardiology, because he's done the work of providing free counseling to a group of new patients who come to his office as they try to overcome their addiction to smoking. You won't find any cardiologists recommending a smoking cessation program here today. However, this is an area of Cardiology where a considerable amount of research has been done, and there are some basic principles that you need to be aware of when it comes to counseling new patients with addiction issues to smoke. - -Conducting a "no cost" survey on your patient's smoking habit is very likely to be one of the first steps that they will take in any of the numerous programs that are available for helping smokers quit smoking. It's a very simple thing to do, and the patient's satisfaction with the results is likely to be excellent. In this case, what you are going to do is to ask questions that will be designed to determine whether your patient has been using tobacco products or other illicit substances in excess amounts. Such activities may include drug dealing, theft, and gambling—and if you don't know how often these things are going on in your patient's life, you obviously can't be sure of a precise measure. One way to deal with this issue of whether a patient may be using a lot of other illicit substances while they are using tobacco products is to ask if they ever used alcohol, and other forms of drugs like marijuana, cocaine or other opiates—in fact, you might even ask if they took any medications in the prior 12 months like antidepressants or anti-psychotic medicines. If the patient says yes to any of those questions, your next question is whether they have ever taken illegal drugs when they were not under the influence, and I know that many of my patients in the past—especially my first patients I treated—have mentioned using illegal drugs while they were addicted to smoking cigarettes. But many patients in the group who call me don't make this reference very frequently or don't make any reference at all to illegal drugs while they were using the other types of tobacco products that I treat them with while they are using this other form of nicotine—like chewing tobacco, snuff, or "cigaretes"—and so my next question becomes whether they have said that they ever used these illegal drugs while they were using cigarettes—and that's a much different question. I try to ask them this question very early on. - -If your patient says that they have used illegal drugs while they were using these other type of tobacco products, you probably won't find any good reason why they shouldn't be free at this time to smoke cigarettes and smoke whatever else they please. At most, you will try to help them use a little more moderation than they're doing now when that other dangerous product is involved, and if you are very successful in that effort, you probably won't hear any complaint about it. But the other thing that you probably will hear when you are trying to provide counseling to a smoking cessation patient—and I have done so many times with many different patients—is, "What about the other drugs and substances you have to treat? How many other drugs and substances do you have to treat? How many times do you ever have to treat this patient?" - -In other words, this is an area where counseling is very good, because you can provide counseling for a significant amount of time, but you are not going to be able to completely eliminate the issue of illicit drug use. - -My very best advice is to keep the discussion of this topic at an absolute minimum. It's almost impossible to talk to a new patient who has a problem with any other illegal drug use while he is smoking while using any of our other cigarettes or tobacco products, and you obviously shouldn't try to make that point very often if you are trying to provide a smoking cessation program to a new patient. As a new physician and as one who treats these patients every day with compassion and knowledge, you should talk to them about other illicit drug use once or twice every few months, but I don't think you should really talk about it very often if you don't want to make the point. - -I can only speak to the general question on this point—I don't know how often it exists in the other areas of Medicine—but I can say that I've talked to two groups of young doctors who are in the process of trying to provide counseling and other types of treatment to many of the patients who come up to them with very serious problem areas that involve drugs or narcotics that they may have not been using when they were addicted to smoking cigarettes -======================================== SAMPLE 379 ======================================== -We have tried pinging Google website using our server and the website returned the above results.

They come in a plethora of styles and models and it's common for enthusiasts to have many different models in their collection, each having their own distinct character. The fountain pen is one of this brand's most familiar models, which are usually produced in limited numbers and come with a long waiting period from the time an order is placed until delivery. I've recently received an order from Pelikan on a number of paper models which are a good comparison with this review's Pelikan M400 and M201. While a limited number is typical, I'm finding more and more of the more popular fountain pen models are going up for sale. I'm guessing people are buying them because they are selling rapidly in the market. I will be posting some of my thoughts on the Pelikan M400 after reviewing it for a while, but for now, here are my impressions and thoughts on the Pelikan M201. - -First Impressions - -This pen is a bit different than I am used to for Pelikan models. I prefer a Pelikan M400 in the large Pelikan size to the medium or medium-size M400 in the larger Pelikan size. My preferred way to describe these nib sizes is that the medium nib is for people writing with a fountain pen with a cartridge as opposed to a converter and the larger nib size is for people using a fountain pen with a converter and a medium. The two sizes are very different and the extra 0.7mm between the medium and larger size nibs really gives them a whole different feel to me. The smaller nib size feels like a fine nib and the larger nib size feels like a medium nib. The size you choose is a decision you should make after careful consideration of what size your preferred nib will work best with and what nib will work best with your preferred writing tools. While the small M201 nib nib is a small diameter nib it feels soft and supple. It reminds me of a Pelikan stub nib I may have had in my possession back in the day. - -The barrel and cap are a beautiful design with a nicely polished finish. The barrel has three rings that have grooves, like a traditional pen barrel, and the tines are all set into the barrel. The tines protrude at the sides of the barrel when not in use which makes them quite easy to write with. The cap is made up of three parts – the trim ring, the barrel part and the section that houses the nib section and body of the pen. As I previously mentioned the barrel of this pen comes with the grooves to give it a traditional pen look. The cap is metal – it's not a cheap plastic style cap. The cap and barrel are perfectly matched to each other and feel well machined. The cap has four screws per side which give it a good grip. - -I was excited to receive this Pelikan M100 so I could start using my new M201. I have been wanting to take the time to write about this pen before I -======================================== SAMPLE 380 ======================================== -I have not read all the comments, or the rest of this email, so I'll let my wife (who read more of the comments than us) take over and fill in the blanks: - -"There is an old saying here in the church: 'What goes around comes around.' And if that 'go around' is the "Bible" (or Bible) as it currently states itself to members (and non-members of the church who use their own interpretations of the Bible), it will be an uphill battle to get those members to take notice (because they are so used to the 'Bible' as it is perceived by other Christians today and by their church leadership). - -"This will be a long journey for me. And it will take the most hard-nosed, dedicated, and loyal heart I've ever known to make it through it…to get to the truth of our God's plan for His church to be His (God's) kingdom on earth now, and also to the eternity of that kingdom! I have no doubt my faith and my heart will be tested (by what I will experience and how I will respond) along the way, but I know, on my heart, my soul, and my soul's assurance that God sees and loves me, and that I will be called to 'walk uprightly before Him'…that I will find hope in God's promise that 'through many tribulations and persecutions He shall give you the crown of life,' and He will be worthy of the love and praise and admiration I will have for Him when I receive His promised crowns or when my kingdom receives its eternal destiny (if it ever does!); that is, when it is truly His Kingdom (which is the goal we all seek, to find the ultimate glory of God, and ultimately of His person in His all-powerful and all-loving self). I know I will have the opportunity to see and to know God…to experience His life, His love (through His Son in the person of Jesus Christ), His will regarding me, and His infinite power to overcome all things and to bring us the ultimate joy. - -"What this all boils down to is this: if this is God's plan for His church, then it is my mission to "wake up" this church. And I do not intend to wait until I have finished in the church. I simply intend for the church to wake up when it sees the need to have a serious 'reflection' on God's character, His will pertaining to His church, and the true purpose of the Bible and the church. What this will accomplish is to lead the church to a true worship that is centered on the glorification of God, and his person, in His true image. And that will bring us to the ultimate conclusion that we ought to worship and be baptized in Jesus. - -"You do not say it here but in your email: 'It's up to individual people on whether to read it. When I see it, it may be up to me how I respond to how it relates to God.' - -"For those of you that have never read the Scripture at all before, you will surely be amazed that God could include in his revealed will so much to which you have no prior knowledge or experience. It will take the hard-headed, the most dedicated, the most loyal heart, the one that never gives away, to 'wake up' this church and allow us to 'read God's Word.' And if you've read Scripture for a long time, you will no longer be able to 'read God's Word' before you 'get there.' - -"Many years ago someone told me and my wife (who has been studying the Bible on and off for years) that we ought to study the Scripture in the Bible, in the King James Version, and not with the 'modernized' versions of the Scriptures which are being introduced over the years. And she said it was because we would see things more and change our way of thinking regarding the Bible, etc. - -"I'm sure you're as frustrated today in the Bible verses you don't know, as I was when I was a teenager. And you're right that you probably will need to study the Scripture to find out those 'hidden things and hidden meanings.' (If you don't have the ability to read or to hear, that you will also probably want to study on your own time.) The Scriptures are the 'teachers' of what we've chosen to do now when we read, and are therefore the 'teachers' of which we can not choose. - -"In the Bible we find so much 'discovery,' which is why we read. But we are all human, we all make mistakes (sometimes many), and we should be careful that the Word of God (our own words or interpretation of Scripture) does not come into direct conflict with the Word of God (others' 'interpretations' or interpretations of the -======================================== SAMPLE 381 ======================================== -A year after one of the most divisive and contentious presidential races in recent memory, Hillary Clinton will take the stage Tuesday night in the first nationally televised Democratic presidential debate of this election cycle. - -Clinton won the last debate with Senator Bernie Sanders, who has refused to endorse her and has been highly critical of her record as secretary of state. But Sanders won the Iowa caucuses and a few other early contests on May 3. - -"I know I'll have to be more prepared than I was the last time around," she said in a video message released by her office Tuesday morning. "And to my supporters and supporters across the country, I want you to hear this: Even if I don't win Tuesday night, I will be out there every single day, through the end, working to earn your vote." - -In that last debate of the Democratic primary, Clinton said she did not see herself running for president in 2016 and said people should "get over it" if that was the case: After President Obama's 2008 loss, Clinton said then, "You just have to sort of move on." - -Sanders himself has said the same thing in recent weeks, saying he isn't focused on the 2016 race and will "just go work for the people of Vermont." He's also said he was "disappointed" in Clinton's victory in the New York primary last week and that "we will fight until the last ballot is cast." - -But in the video, Clinton said her view of herself hasn't changed and is that "when we stand together we can overcome anything," and noted that after his "unexpected, inspiring, and energizing" campaign, she hopes the message she is sending will be heard. - -"I want to give you a big hug," she said for Sanders. "I want to tell you that I am here for you, and I will fight for you every single day from here on." - -She said she's proud of the work she and her team have done and noted that "we are doing better, faster and stronger than in 2008." - -But, she said, "we still have lots of work to do to elect a president who can get America to a position of sustained economic growth and long-term prosperity."<|endoftext|>It's important to remember that the law and the president's executive orders are very different animals. The president's power is limited just a little bit with his executive order. In fact, that power can be very powerful. - -The president can put a stop to you when you have done something you thought was legal, but the president has no power to take away what you want to do once it becomes illegal (which I have heard referred to as an "unprecedented use of presidential power"). - -For example, I'm an advocate of legal drugs for a good reason. The president can't stop you from using them, but you can have the president remove you from the list of those who are legal in regards to using drugs. You still have the opportunity of ending up on the list of those who are not legally using drugs. - -However, the way most people interpret this is that the president can take away your ability to smoke pot. But, you still have the choice. - -But what happens to someone on the list? Well, that's your choice. The only problem is, when you do smoke a joint you are going to be in the minority. - -Most people do not smoke in public, but about 60 percent of people admit to smoking a joint in private. - -You can tell exactly how far into prohibition this is by the fact that many states have created a "dry" registry. Just remember, you are still breaking the law, but you are doing so within your rights as a registered voter. - -However, most people are in the same position I was, and this is what gets people into trouble. They choose to violate the law and get caught doing so, but they believe they are not doing anything illegal until the government catches them. The fact of the matter is that any crime a person commits is still illegal. Even if they are on a private list, that still remains that person's choice. - -So just remember, the law doesn't care what you want to do. Your government (the president), however, will definitely try to help you.<|endoftext|>The following is an excerpt from the book, From the Wilderness: On Living Like a Local, which is available on Amazon.com and Kindle Unlimited. - -I've long thought of the American West as a place of extremes that one could never fully understand until a little way into the experience.

O'Connor - -The word - -The story of - -the early days - -of - -the Church has been told - -repeatedly throughout our history, and it is no wonder, for it reveals much about the spirit of the age in which it was written. Thus when Pope Alexander VI in 1534 ordained that Christian mothers should be given the privilege of baptizing their children at birth, he was addressing the problem that had haunted Christian thought and action all through the early Middle Ages and was a principal concern of the reformers and the reformatories of the seventeenth century. This question had been particularly serious in France, Germany, England, Scotland, and elsewhere on the Continent. Many of the Christian communities of these countries—as well as of Italy and Ireland—had been involved in various schemes to obtain legal rights to their children by which they might assume the right to baptize and perform other acts of Christian care. One such scheme was that of the Reformation of England, which, in accordance with the doctrines of the reformers, provided that all children, after six years of age, ought to belong to the church upon the death of their parents. But after this period, it was held, the parents retained the right to control the child's religion and its education. In 1662 the Catholic king and bishops of France adopted the same theory and set up similar rules for the future of Catholic children. - -At Paris, as elsewhere, the father of the child might give it over to the church or to some other institution "in all things whatsoever he might command the people, or his officers who were there to direct." But it was his right "to choose his own minister, and to receive that minister whom he should call." As a member of the church the young child was bound to "obey, to do well, and [p. 532] to fear God, both always and in times of temptation." - -In Germany the infant might be "ordained" or "subordinated" to the church but the authority of the church over its members was not absolute and the father might "exercise [p. 533] his jurisdiction and authority, according to his judgment and decision, for the peace and well-being of his kingdom and people." A Catholic parent, in addition, was responsible "not only for his own children, but also his brethren, for all the faithful and good servants of God of whatsoever order or place they might be." [14] - -The doctrine of the reformation as outlined in the Council of Trent and in the earlier dogmas of the Reformers was that the authority of the church over its individual members and over the whole body of Christ was to be wholly limited, and only the supreme authority of the Church could be absolute. Christ, as the supreme head, retained full responsibility for the organization of the church; He alone, as head of the church, could absolve His members from sins and absolve all the faithful from every sin—for He was the true High Priest and the true mediator between God and man, and He could bind and loose all His children in heaven and on earth—so that He alone could be the supreme judge of the souls of men and that the church as an institution was the place of salvation for God's children. The child, however, was not to be subject to the judgment and authority of his parent. - -This doctrine was a fundamental one and was taught by the whole of the Reformation, both Catholic and Protestant, as it was first formulated by Protestant reformers, who did not hesitate to say in their sermons that if the reformation was to succeed its first fruit would be baptism. A Protestant preacher in his sermon on 6 June, 1531, said of the new faith, "Christians, by the Gospel preached unto them, will know right well what their consciences require, and so, when they themselves are baptized into it, will put away old sins and receive new. As soon as their consciences are purified from every mortal sin, they shall receive the benefit thereof." - -A Catholic bishop, speaking of his new doctrine, said, "With those who are in the Lord's flock, nothing shall be demanded which is not proper for every Catholic man's conscience." Protestant ministers, in a sermon preached on 9 March, 1532, said, "This doctrine of our religion is founded on baptism as the foundation of the new covenant, and to it all the children of the church, and children of men even as it were, of whatever state or condition they may be, are called." In a sermon preached on 28 September, 1544, a priest said, "This, then, is the faith which is preached to us from the book called the New Testament, and it is so much the more profitable for us, and the more firmly fixed, because it is so new, that all those who believe -======================================== SAMPLE 383 ======================================== -This is the first installment of a series on the future of energy delivery to the grid, and the impact of distributed energy resources (DERs) on energy markets. To stay up-to-date on this issue, subscribe to the RSS feed. - -On March 27th, 2014 the US Department of Energy (DOE) published a new study on the electric power markets to meet peak demand by 2030. - -"The report examines the different options for meeting peak demand – electricity generation, demand management and other approaches. The report also considers the impacts of increased use of the renewable energy and energy efficiency markets." - -The report notes that in order to meet the goal of meeting one-third of the country's demand without adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, the United States wants to increase its reliance on "baseload" electric power over the next two decades. - -For example, they want to increase the share of "baseload" power to 31% by 2040. This includes gas, coal, nuclear and hydroelectric power. They want to reduce wind, solar and other renewables' share of this baseload share to 13%, 15% and 8% respectively by 2040. - -DOE's goal is to bring the share of all renewable energy to 24% to meet the two-thirds goal. The report includes a section titled "The Evolution of the US Electricity Sector." They note that "there is an enormous amount of uncertainty about the future of electricity production growth in the United States and the electricity sector is at the center of this discussion." - -They say the cost of solar energy is "expected to decrease dramatically." They believe electric demand is growing in "high-demand states because of the availability and affordability of clean technology to meet electricity demand." - -The report also considers grid integration challenges that electric utilities face in meeting this goal. They say they face "complex interdependencies" and "distributed-generation and storage assets that must be properly integrated to improve flexibility in the grid and overall system operation." - -They suggest that utilities are facing "challenges from grid integration, market dynamics, and uncertainty regarding the future electricity economy." They state "there is a lack of national and local coordination in addressing grid-integration challenges." - -They believe "the national grid is becoming congested" with an "increasing number of non-concentrated renewable resources, especially wind turbines." They say that "it is difficult to coordinate the resources to take advantage of wind resources and solar resources." - -They say that "the grid infrastructure in a number of states" is inadequate to serve large-scale renewables projects. They add that "concentrated solar arrays can become an impediment to grid operations, which is a source of concern as they limit the energy available for other purposes." - -They state also in the report that "the demand for energy is expected to increase in high-demand states in particular because of higher energy costs, which are driven primarily by the cost of fossil fuels and natural gas." They predict that "these costs will drive the majority of changes to the supply mix to accommodate higher electricity demand" and "increase variability in supply." - -They say: "As a result, the potential for electricity shortages on the electric grid increases." This "means that grid operators must respond by ensuring system availability and stability." - -They note that "the electric grid has traditionally relied primarily on a small number of suppliers (generators) that supply large volumes of generating electricity." - -They point out, for instance, that, "few if any of these providers have experience in operating large distributed energy resources (DERs) across the entire electric system and integrating these systems into the electric system." - -They add: "At present, grid operators have difficulty determining when a generation resource would be needed most to maintain reliable electric service. When the generators are required most, grid managers must also manage the distribution system to ensure availability of generation resources throughout the entire electrical system." - -They add: "Generators are not well positioned for managing intermittency and can become overreliant on the grid as a whole, which is why it is necessary to have a mix of power sources that can operate reliably and on-demand when demand is highest." - -The energy sector faces two critical issues regarding the electrification of the public and private sectors, the report states. - -First, the report notes that, "There is a shortage of technical talent to develop technologies necessary to achieve future electric transportation, heating, and lighting systems." - -It adds: "Currently, there is a shortage of technical talent to develop grid-integrated distributed energy resources to control energy supply and control distribution network conditions." - -The report concludes that, "With more than 6,200 GW of installed generating capacity (as of 2010), the United States ranks fifth largest in the world in installed generating capacity, ahead of only China, India, and the EU." - -As a result, it adds: - -"Generators and grid -======================================== SAMPLE 384 ======================================== -LIVE CHAT INFO ] [ a d m i n ] Petrarca : Welcome to SpellsOfMagic.com.

Both Clinton and Sanders have improved on their favorability numbers, while Donald Trump remains unpopular. And, despite all the controversy that surrounds Sanders (and Donald Trump as well), many voters are still still likely to back him in November. - -In the latest Fox News poll , Sanders tops Trump by a whopping 22 points, while Clinton trails by 15 points. Both Clinton and Trump are viewed negatively, and both are viewed more negatively now than they were last fall. - -Sanders' favorability ratings are higher than Clinton's favorability, but they are lower than Trump's. In fact, about two-thirds of voters (63 percent) have a negative view of Trump, and nearly half of voters (48 percent) of Clinton do. Sanders, in particular, is viewed favorably by twice as many voters (62 percent) as Clinton is (42 percent), though that difference only amounts to 14 percentage points. - -In the latest Fox News poll, Sanders tops Trump by a whopping 22 points, while Clinton trails by 15 points. Both Clinton and Trump are viewed negatively, and both are viewed more negatively now than they were last fall. And in the wake of Sanders' victory in Michigan, an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll showed that he has pulled 12 percentage points ahead of Clinton in the contest (45 percent to 37 percent). In the most recent Iowa poll, Sanders led Clinton by six points (47-40 percent), while Clinton also led Sanders by six points in New Hampshire. - -And, to be blunt, both Clinton (62 percent) and Trump are disliked by a majority of voters, so any negative perception of a candidate can make him a less appealing candidate. This makes the Democrats and the Republican field alike a more interesting election this election cycle than it is a general election. - -But this is not the first time that Clinton has been at a disadvantage in the polls since the Democratic campaign began. - -A Pew Research poll found some of the same results last fall, which shows Sanders (56 percent) beating Clinton (39 percent) when compared to the other potential nominees. - -A September CNN poll found that Sanders was more popular than Clinton (58 percent to 35 percent) among Democrats and Democratic leaning (D) independents; this makes the general election an interesting proposition for Democratic voters. And, if anything, Sanders is currently gaining support. - -A CNN poll also found that two-thirds of Republican voters (67 percent) would support Cruz, as opposed to Trump's 13 percent, while the same two-thirds (67 percent) would vote for Kasich in the general election. - -If the poll's findings hold true, and Sanders continues to perform as well as he is, he would likely defeat either Trump or Cruz; not two likely candidates who are viewed favorably by a majority of voters. - -In fact, in the last two polls, Sanders has beaten more qualified candidates, such as Clinton (60 percent to 33 percent); Bush, Carly Fiorina and Marco Rubio (all 57 percent); and Christie, Bush and Kasich (51 percent). - -Sanders appears to be doing better among female voters, and his favorability is higher with voters under the age of 45 (59 percent favorable to 44 percent unfavorable). - -In terms of the general-election debate, Fox found that Sanders is favored by a majority of voters (51 percent) — though less than Clinton (57 percent) and Trump (68 percent) are. Trump, in particular, has recently made disparaging remarks about Sanders. - -"This guy's a socialist-slash-communist, and I hate socialism, let me tell you," Trump told Fox News last week. "He'll destroy the banks, destroy the economy, destroy it, right?" - -Of the Republicans, Cruz and Kasich are viewed more favorably than Sanders currently is (Cruz is 59 percent favorable and 30 percent unfavorable among Republicans, while Kasich is 62 percent favorable and 25 percent unfavorable). - -Though Kasich's favorability ratings have improved (37 percent to 50 percent) since CNN/ORC conducted their poll in September, he is still viewed negatively by about two-thirds of registered voters, so it would take a massive turn for Republican voters to consider voting for him. - -Still, some -======================================== SAMPLE 385 ======================================== -A man accused of killing a man over a video game has been found not guilty. - -A judge acquitted George Williams on Monday after hearing how he killed James Harris in April 2010. - -The 36-year-old was convicted of murder in 2012, but an appeal at the High Court quashed that conviction and ordered a retrial. - -In a landmark court ruling in February this year, Mr Justice Paul Gilligan said the jury had been "misled" into believing that George had killed Mr Harris by driving him to a secluded place and stabbing him. - -The jury had heard "strong and circumstantial evidence" that George had lied about going to a party with the murdered man, James Williams. - -The ruling was hailed as a potential victory against a rise in increasingly ruthless online gaming. - -'Disgusted with violence' - -Mr Williams was playing a video game called Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (MW2) on his computer. It followed a similar storyline to World of Warcraft (WoW). - -On the morning of 12 April 2010, someone in the video game - believed to be a teenager - logged on to MW2 and started playing it with friends. - -At about 0130 BST, James Harris, a 24-year-old electrician from Newmarket, Middlesbrough, logged on and played a game with another player called William Cuthbert - a friend. - -At first, Mr Harris was enjoying the gameplay, but he then started hearing noises, including sounds of his playing. - -He also noticed that Mr Harris had been playing with his right hand on his joystick. One of his hands was shaking. - -Mr Harris later told police he became confused when they stopped playing. He could not tell them where he was nor who had killed him, although he did remember hearing George scream "stop it". - -At some point during the game, George asked William Cuthbert whether he had seen James on the monitor, and then said: "I'm scared, I've been playing a game all night." - -James Harris had been going through a hard time, and the two men had gone for a drink with the victim, who had recently been released from prison after three years. - -They returned home after a few hours of drinking, and at about 2117 BST, James Harris said he wanted to finish the evening out, so they headed to the toilet. - -He left his family home in Middlesbrough, and then drove to the parking lot of his local pub. - -George Harris - -Image caption James Harris' family and friends gave evidence in court - -George - who was playing with a knife - entered through a kitchen window, went through the back door, and asked for him to come down the stairs. - -He told officers later: "I was getting out my car, I was really scared, I had a knife, so I got out." - -When he asked him if he had anything to say he didn't remember saying, he replied: "No, I don't want to speak to you." - -The car went into what became a chase, with George Harris chasing James Harris. Eventually, they reached a cul-de-sac on the road where Mr Harris collapsed, but he did not die from his injuries. - -George was then arrested by police in the town of Preston, and the evidence was recorded from a covert video camera worn on his person by police officers. - -It showed George driving towards James Harris, stopping briefly near her home. - -After they were arrested, George said he had been playing through the night and was trying to calm down - because he had been worried about James's reaction to him. - -'He would have been happy' James Harris' father - -Speaking outside court, his father John said: "George is a very responsible person. I think he knows right from wrong. - -"We're not happy about this decision and I don't know how we will cope living with this for the rest of our lives. - -"James's family are all doing fine - he always said that he had a very loving and caring mum. - -"It's not like George and James were enemies, they were not enemies, and they had nothing to do with one another. - -"I don't think George will ever have any closure." - -Mr Harris has said the trial process left him feeling like a "pawn". - -Judge Gilligan said he was not satisfied that the jury were misled but said it was "unclear" how Mr Harris could have identified George. - -He also ruled out a retrial and said George was found not guilty in two out of the three proceedings. - -'Heard noises' - -A statement from the family of James Harris said: "James was a wonderful, loving son, brother and friend.

The line, he said, was responsible for the team giving up 24-year-old quarterback Cam Newton, who had a torn labrum in his shoulder in Sunday's loss to the Giants. - -The Panthers have now lost four in a row -- including games to the Seahawks and Panthers -- and quarterback Derek Anderson has thrown two interceptions through Sunday after throwing no interceptions the week before against the Chargers. It appears Gettleman is doing some soul searching. - -"The defensive side of the ball is going to be more important than our offense," Gettleman said, via ESPN.com. "That's what coaches always preach with you. When you're in a situation that you're struggling offensively, it's always my job to look and see if we can find some kind of balance or some kind of confidence in our defensive line. We're not playing the best football we can be at this moment, and we have to do anything we can to get that fixed, but it's the defensive side of the ball. - -"We've got to continue to make it a little bit harder on defenses with what we're doing offensively in the passing game. That's what we're going to continue to do, and the coaches have talked about that. We're going to play better defense when we have better passing games and run games." - -The Panthers are last in the league in passing yardage, but when it comes to passing scoring, they're third in the league. - -But the offensive line isn't the reason these Panthers have fallen to fourth in the NFC behind the 49ers, Rams and Cardinals. The defensive backfield and special teams are the key culprits. - -Panthers starting safety Tre Boston is among the NFL leaders in penalties, according to ESPN Stats & Information notes. The Panthers are one of only four teams to have two safeties lead their team in penalties -- the other teams to have more than two safeties at the same spots on the field are Seattle (one), the Jets (two) and St. Louis (one). - -The Panthers are tied with the Dolphins for most fumbles in the NFL at 16 and have lost their starting left tackle Matt Kalil to a season-ending ACL tear that appears to have been a season-ending tear. Backup tackle Daryl Williams also left the game in the first quarter with an injury, forcing starting left guard Trai Turner into the lineup for the final 13 snaps of the half. - -The good news is that the 49ers' defense is tied for ninth in the league, but that's only because Gettleman drafted linebackers NaVorro Bowman and Michael Wilhoite in the first round. Bowman has two sacks and Wilhoite is tied with Aaron Donald for the NFL lead with 3.5 sacks. - -Still, it will be up to the line and the coaching staff to do better.<|endoftext|>It has long been thought that the early human diet was largely vegetarian, with animals comprising about 3% of all nutrients, although recent studies suggest that it was not always so. Our understanding of the human diet has certainly changed since the introduction of agriculture over 10,000 years ago, and it is now thought that human nutrition in the past was much closer to that of chimpanzees. The majority of protein consumed comes from meat-based diets, with about 75% of all calories coming from protein foods such as meat, fish, milk, milk products, eggs, and dairy products. In addition, the human diet is high in fat, which in most cases is from animal sources such as animal fat, saturated fatty acids and free fatty acids. - -Animal protein - -The most commonly consumed animal protein is made up of meat from mammals and birds, including chicken, beef, pork, and dairy. However, the human diet is far from exclusively a diet of animal protein, and a growing proportion of all the protein consumed comes from plants-mostly legumes, or legumes that are low in fat. There are no direct comparisons of the protein values of different foods and their animal sources in our study. Nevertheless, studies indicate there may be significant differences (such as yield of protein) if one considers only animal sources (such as milk). In addition, the human diet does not contain as much calcium as a typical Western diet, and the lack of calcium in the diet could be causing problems, including a higher risk of osteoporosis as the body attempts to remove the calcium through the urine.

That's not the case anymore. - -It should be obvious that the oil and gas industry relies heavily on a vast and unwieldy combination of misinformation, misinformation that is being repeated time and again on a range of mainstream outlets. - -The latest, from the New York Times, comes on the heels of a recent report from the State Geological Survey, which was released late last month. That report found that fracking has increased seismic activity in the United States since the early 2000s, which suggests that it may actually lead to health hazards similar to those described by the EPA. - -In some cases -- but not all -- earthquakes have occurred close to oil and gas facilities and fracking has played a role there. But in no case, the Geology report found, has fracking induced any increased seismic activity, and the magnitude of seismic activity is only a tiny fraction of the energy generated by natural gas. - -According to the report: - -It is premature to attribute increased seismicity to induced seismicity from hydraulic fracturing. ... Although most natural earthquakes occur in areas not connected with the oil and gas sector, several of the cases cited in this report are in regions that previously experienced seismic events. - -To illustrate what the Geology report actually concluded: the state of Oklahoma and its surrounding area has had more than 900 earthquakes with magnitudes of 3.0 and higher this year in the depths of the crust, compared to less than 25 earthquakes between 2004 and 2010. - -While the scientific evidence that fracking leads to earthquakes is growing, the media, led by the New York Times, is still trying to spin these findings to fit their ideological agenda. - -The New York Times' lead editorial states they are trying to figure out how the New York Times' own data has been manipulated. Perhaps the best example of how the Times tries to spin these findings is a graphic published by the paper purporting to prove fracking increases earthquakes, but with a twist. The graphic shows that, according to data it obtained from the federal government, the earthquakes that have happened in Oklahoma over the last few years have not occurred near any fracking-related sites, but rather near two towns that have both banned fracking and have moratoriums on it. - -But the Geology report clearly shows that there has been no decrease or change in seismic activity across the United States since fracking began in earnest -- not in any area where fracking has been prohibited. - -The Times' lead editorial tries to spin the results of the study by arguing that an increase in earthquakes is not necessarily related to fracking, but the Geology reports show differently. In fact, the report finds, there is almost no evidence of fracking causing an actual increase in earthquakes. - -It's just like telling someone that because there has been an increase in suicides, then this must be related or triggered in some manner by their suicidal thoughts. - -When people begin to question the veracity of the industry's claims about fracking and related earthquakes in the United States, they're pushed back into their corner, telling them that the studies have "failed" and they need to "take their medicine." - -The Times' editorial is a perfect example of that. In the course of discussing the seismic events in Oklahoma, the editorial board claims there is no "smoking gun" in the New York Times study that ties fracking to an increase in earthquakes: - -The Geology report contradicts claims that earthquakes related to hydraulic fracturing were occurring "all across the country," as the Times put it in the lead. The reality is that a very small number of cases in several areas were associated with a specific hydraulic fracturing procedure called hydraulic fracturing or ''fracking," which has recently been used to produce a lot of natural gas, especially in recent years. - -The Times editorial board seems convinced it's the geology itself -- which can be influenced by fracking -- that is creating an increase in seismic activity around the United States. The industry's own records show this is untrue. - -The editorial board isn't satisfied until they've convinced their readers. - -This editorial is also a perfect example of how the editorial page of the Times functions. It attempts to tell you what to know without actually telling you what to know. And when there's disagreement about the science of health risks from fracking, the Times editorial board, along with mainstream media commentators, tries to sway public opinion by portraying scientific evidence as "conflicting."<|endoftext|>"It's not clear whether that's something that should have been done.

But the plan has not yet been accepted by Puerto Rico's voters. - -What are the options? - -There are five main options under consideration. - -Option A - Puerto Rico's utilities privatized - -A privatization plan that includes a public utility company and a number of municipal services – water, sewer, gas, electric, roads, waste - would be implemented over a decade. - -The plan would then be monitored and evaluated over the following years to see the efficiency of the programs. - -The plan would use the revenues from privatized services to build up a Public Asset Fund (PAF), which would generate revenues to pay down debt, create jobs and fund services for low-income residents - -A separate revenue stream would be created by transferring municipal and public services from the public sector to private private partnerships (P3s.) These P3s would receive funding from the PAF and be able to recoup their investment by charging their customers market rates. (We will provide more detail on this system in a second.) - -Option B - Puerto Rico's utilities remain public - -In this option, private, for profit corporations would still control all public utilities on the island. - -However, municipal utilities would be phased out altogether, with the most profitable companies receiving the bulk of the cash, and the government could offer tax breaks to attract corporations to operate them. - -The PAF would not be allowed to earn profits, but instead used as a source to pay down debt from previous public expenditures. A third, publicly financed revenue stream would be created. - -Option C - Puerto Rico's utilities remain public, but privatized - -This option was the subject of a study submitted as part of the fiscal 2017 bond referendum in 2018. The study was prepared by Moody's Analytics; The Center for a New Economy; and the University of Puerto Rico. It looked at the costs of running a network of municipally owned utilities and a more traditional public/public partnership (P3) system. - -The study concluded that using the privatized utility to generate the revenue for debt repayment would improve the long-term financial outlook of all Puerto Ricans, but most consumers would end up paying more in the long run. - -In this scenario, the government would continue to control public service operations and charge market rates to all consumers, but it would allow private companies to invest and own infrastructure. - -Option D - San Juan's public utility privatized, but the private companies are owned in partnership - -At this option, the government would continue to control most operations and charge market rates, but will allow a limited number of P3s to manage city services. A private P3 and government would operate the same government-owned utilities on the island, but would partner to reduce maintenance and to reduce costs. - -Option E - Public utilities remain public, but P3s to run service are not permitted - -In this option, cities and municipalities would remain free to decide their own services and their own contracts with the P3s, but the government would provide only a nominal management role. - -This would allow for greater flexibility with respect to public operations and would allow for the creation of a P3 to invest in municipal infrastructure without having to pay the higher PPI that would come with such investment. - -Alternative 3 - Puerto Rico has two P3 options - -At this option, as with Option B, the government-own networks would remain in place, but only two P3 companies would be permitted to use the infrastructure. - -The remaining cities and municipalities would have the option to establish their own public/private partnership and choose to take on debt themselves, but they must do so with the help of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA), which would remain the entity controlling the infrastructure and charging market rates. It would also be required to make investments in the system as a condition of receiving loans and grants. - -Source: Moody's Analytics - -Moody's study also looked at alternatives 2A – 2B, which is one of the most popular of the two alternatives offered by the current government plan. - -Source: Moody's Analytics. - -At this alternative, cities and municipalities would remain free to choose which P3 they want to use, but they would still have to pay a share of the infrastructure costs in addition to the public funds from the PAF. - -At this option, cities and municipalities would still have the option to establish their own public/private partnership, but they would have to pay a share of the infrastructure costs in addition to the public funds from the PAF. - -Source: Moody's Analytics. - -All -======================================== SAMPLE 390 ======================================== -We are in our third generation on the farm and have taken over the farm in June, 2016.

The report found that one-third of all factory factory workers are children. The average age for female factory workers in China is 19, the report found. - -As The Christian Science Monitor wrote: - -Many of the companies listed in the Human Trafficking in China report that they employ a portion of their factories—a handful, they often acknowledge—as temporary shelters for workers who, like hundreds of thousands of other women worldwide, are trafficked into forced labor in factories—often in rural areas. […] This was the third largest number of factories surveyed by Human Rights Watch, and more than 20 percent of those identified as temporary shelters are in the construction and manufacturing industries. The number of those factories employing workers under 16 who work at night—and the percentage who are female—represents nearly 20 percent of the total number of female workers surveyed. The Human Rights Watch report makes clear that these factories and shelters are not safe. - -The Chinese government has repeatedly promised to improve working conditions in order to reduce child labor, but Human Rights Watch believes that it has done little to date. It says China is still the largest importer of child labor in the world. - -"One in three Chinese children still work in factories in 2013, despite pledges by most governments to end compulsory labor since 2007," said Sarah Leah Whitson, director of U.S. and China advocacy at Human Rights Watch. "But government attempts to crack down on child labor have been plagued by human rights violations that include physical and sexual abuse and forced labor by child workers who should be at school and have access to health care."<|endoftext|>There must be a way to fix it, it cannot be an oversight, it needs to be fixed soon, this is an expensive way to fix and has been for years - -It's so disappointing to see a major manufacturer fix something so simple.

"I love working on cars" or "I love baking cupcakes" or "I love having cats" or "I love to travel and go on adventures" and so on. But "I love…" can be tricky. And because it's ubiquitous, this is the post that is supposed to help you get that one that really makes you say "Oh, that makes me happy." - -One of the hardest things about loving someone is knowing when to stop. That's why I often wish I could just say, "I love you!" in one fell swoop. The problem is that "I love you" is something you want to say when you truly think it's true, when you really mean what you are saying. And then you can stop doing it whenever you want, without being judged. I'm lucky that I get a pretty sweet ride every time I say it, but many people find it difficult to keep the love they have for people alive. - -The good news is that "I love you" is a good statement for a lot of things. It will make you feel good in some contexts, like when you just want to be with a person, like when the person is doing/talking/feeling good, like when you're talking to a partner about something that's important to you and needn't seem superficial. You can say "I love you" during any kind of emotional situation, in moments when you want to share the most intimate details with someone else, when you're trying to comfort someone you find sad (or angry or frustrated), or just when you want to get something or to hear another person's feelings aloud. But "I love you" is not just a statement of love. It can also mean that you're happy for a partner, someone you've given love to, someone who has given you love in return. Saying "I love you" to someone who has recently lost a friend or a family member or a pet or anyone else who makes you feel connected and cared about is a pretty powerful statement. - -The thing is, you don't always mean the same thing when you say "I love you." So if you're not sure whether to say "I love you" to someone, there are five reasons you should always choose to say it. - -Love Can Be More Than Just Intimacy - -I've heard a lot of advice in the past few years, and I'm not sure why, about what you need to say to an ex-partner if you're going to stay in a relationship. But the advice I've heard almost always comes after a story like this one. "Do I have to go 'I love you' at every turn?" "Do I always have to be like 'Oh, you're so wonderful'?" You know how when your parents say that they love you they say it lovingly and earnestly, and then it comes across as if you never said it at all? That's what it feels like when you have to give an explanation when your partner calls and says "I don't have a job." It's like they're saying that they're "not sorry," and it just kind of goes away without making any changes to your relationship. That's how "I love you" can often come off in your non-spouse relationships. - -On the other hand, you might not understand another person to that degree on a day-to-day basis. That's a very hard thing to communicate. Many people would describe their romantic love as "being on all the time, making plans, spending lots of time together, and enjoying spending your days together." When you're with someone, you can feel that you're at the "fun" restaurant or the movie theater at the same time as the person you're with, and you don't feel that same sense of excitement when you just want to spend time with them once in awhile. "I love you" is about being able to make plans that you are excited about and enjoy spending time with, and you need to be able to do that in all your relationships. I know it's a lot harder to be intimate with someone when you don't know them that well than it is to try to communicate when a few months into a relationship, you're still trying to figure out everything about this person. In short, "I love you" will always translate to "I care about you, and I care about you in an intimate way," whether or not you're together and you were just in a really good day with them. - -Some people even go further and tell their exes to "do better than that" by not being such a jerk to their partners. That's true, but you can try to show that you're -======================================== SAMPLE 392 ======================================== -[Editor's Note: This review contains spoilers for the season finale of Game of Thrones] - -There has been only one season before this of Game of Thrones for the show's fans, but it appears that the HBO series has been in the works since before the series started. We're talking about pre-season, pre-publicity and, potentially, pre-production for at least two series, since the first season's plot points and characters were still being built. - -For those who didn't know, Game of Thrones, a medieval fantasy series based on George R. R. Martin's novels, is created and developed by David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, who in 2012 joined a cast that originally consisted of Lena Headey, Lena Headey, Sean Bean, Liam Cunningham, Lena Headey, Michelle Fairley, Emilia Clarke, Kit Harington, Peter Dinklage, Maisie Williams, Natalie Dormer and Iain Glen. - -But that cast couldn't stay together for long. After the second season was renewed for a third season, it was revealed that Kit Harington was leaving the show. And in January 2013, it was confirmed that Ian Martin would also be leaving the show, leaving just Jon Snow (Kit Harington) and Daenerys Targaryen (Emilia Clarke), two characters who have not yet undergone their respective metamorphoses. - -While there have been occasional rumors of Thrones being adapted into a film, the show has so far been more than content to play out on the small screen. The show's main characters have gone on to star in multiple feature films. (Game of Thrones is one of the only TV series to make a film-length transition so far.) - -If the show ever gets to film a third season, Benioff and Weiss say, there is a good chance that it will be its pilot episode. "Maybe we'll do it, maybe not," one of the showrunners explains. "It seems to have the right vibe, so it's going into production as planned." - -In an interview with THR, Benioff and Weiss revealed that they have already begun making preliminary plans for a third season. "It's in a pretty heavy planning stage," said Benioff. - -There is also talk of making other TV shows out of Game of Thrones. For example, some of the series' characters and plot points are so huge that they can easily fit on multiple episodes. "There are definitely ideas for other shows beyond this one, but the plan for them is for them to exist in George and Dan's world, but also be more standalone," said Benioff. - -Benioff and Weiss also discussed that they have some ideas for other series that could possibly take place in Westeros. - -"There's also the possibility for a whole series of other HBO series," said Benioff. "There are certain things about the characters of Game Of Thrones that just come from the sheer brilliance of the writers, and also from the story itself, which we believe is the best of any kind of TV show out there. We'd be insane to not explore different worlds. We've tried to stay true to the source material in a way that's as true to the source material as we can in terms of tone. There might be places we go where we lose some of the authenticity, but it is a world we're extremely proud and happy to have created, and want to see people enjoy." - -As for whether Game of Thrones could ever get turned into a movie, the showrunners say it isn't out of the question. "It's always been an aspiration," said Benioff. "And no matter how much it may feel impossible, you can always dream, right? In a certain way, we've accomplished everything we ever asked of ourselves, and so it may be that there's a few series that we'd be excited to explore that way." - -Game of Thrones continues to air Sundays at 9/8c on HBO. - -(via THR, images via HBO) - -Meanwhile in related links<|endoftext|>From Halopedia, the Halo wiki - -" The Covenant's primary weapon is an array of plasma cannons mounted on its supercarriers and battleships.

He was selected by the Royal Society of Canada to deliver the speech titled "The economics of fossil fuels," said the Royal Society in a news release. - -Schindler is part of a team of researchers who examined the world's fossil fuel reserves and how much of them are economically recoverable as well as which of them will become economically viable. - -He said the economics of fossil fuels is still difficult to define and that different groups will often have very different views. - -Schindler said in an email, "The economics of fossil fuels is still difficult to define and what different groups think and think they know often turns out to be wrong. This may seem obvious, but it bears repeating." - -One of the problems, Schindler added, is that it takes a huge amount of money and resources (in energy, land, and water) to do a fossil fuel extraction process, like mining. - -"The problem is that most of these resources, if they are recoverable, need significant energy to be extracted or, at best, they require small amounts of natural gas or other sources of 'free' energy," said Schindler. - -Schindler said in order to make a fossil fuel extraction or refining process sustainable, there must be a lot of renewable energy such as solar (which can supply all of a fossil fuel extraction process with energy) to power it. Solar produces a lot of waste but it also makes a lot of energy, which can be useful if there are places that cannot afford solar, as well as making it more expensive for those that cannot afford it. Schindler said even if fossil fuels do become a more affordable fuel option, the price of fossil fuels will still be expensive for consumers. - -The economic problem of fossil fuels is made even worse by the negative effects of burning them and their subsequent effects on the environment and the human health, said Schindler. - -While fossil fuels have many beneficial applications, he said using them can create social problems because of the impact on the environment, human health, and the economy, and even the future of the planet. - -Schindler said, "What's more, as we use the economy to grow our economies, more and more land is being taken off the land." - -"This leads to higher environmental degradation, water scarcity in regions like the Nile and the Euphrates, and a higher demand for food and other materials," said Schindler. - -He added, "Overfishing, which is already an issue in the North Atlantic, has become a serious worldwide problem which will affect our own planet in the future." - -The United Nations estimates that one out of every 11 marine fish stocks, which can only survive at high depths, has already been overexploited to the point that they are currently facing extinction. Schindler said that one of the most serious of those is the sea trout, which we eat on fish sticks in many parts of North America. He said that in some parts of the North Atlantic, the sea trout has already become too depleted to maintain a population and its population, which includes many species of fish that live at sea (such as cod and halibut) will disappear if we go on using fishing vessels. So what will happen? The fish will die off, along with the oceans. - -He also said that as fossil fuel technologies increase in efficiency, it is clear that the use of fossil fuels will lead to a larger environmental footprint because it creates more energy-intensive processes to extract energy from the fuel. He added, "What's more, the use of fossil fuels increases the risks to human health as a result of toxic effects on air and water." - -His point was a simple one, he said. "We must choose the right uses of our fossil fuel resources. If our goal as a species is to make earth a livable earth that supports life, we should not use it. If our goal as a species is to preserve biodiversity we should not use it. If our goal as a species is to protect fragile ecosystems for future generations, we should not use it." - -What the "wrong uses" of fossil fuels are is often discussed. Schindler suggested that in many locations, we use the most energy from a fossil fuel and produce the lowest quality product because the best of us can't make an impact there, such -======================================== SAMPLE 394 ======================================== -"We believe that some of the changes that come at the end of a war — the need for a transition to a new regime — will be lessened if we have at least some way that will be able to provide the United States military with a credible and effective means to take out targets in the most dangerous places where terrorists are hiding. … The other thing we believe is very important is for us to be able to make the transition from an intelligence-focused campaign to one that takes more of the fight to the fighting and allows for better cooperation within countries with which we're working against these groups. - -"If we are able to put that in place with a few weeks' notice, it would change the tenor of the campaign dramatically … This change that Mr. Trump has proposed would make the campaign harder to do.

Our conversations include the use of U.S. military force as an option; the use of force to try to get regime cooperation. … There are a lot of discussions between the president-elect's team and the transition team." – Secretary of State John Kerry, March 5, 2016 - -If Obama had really wanted regime change in Syria, he wouldn't have sent the YPG to fight Assad, he'd sent the US Army to help the SAA. - -Rice says the U.S. can't "make the transition from an intelligence-focused campaign to one that takes more of the fight to the fighting." - -If it helps US war-planes get closer to ISIS and other terror groups, that's one thing. - -If it gives the YPG and its backers a "decadence" victory over Assad and their Russian foes, that's another thing entirely. If it gives the Syrian Army's allies a "decadence" victory against Syrian Kurds, that's going too far, too fast. - -US military strategists know full well the dangers of using force to overthrow foreign governments in the Muslim world. During the Spanish-American War, Gen. John "Black Jack" Pershing sent American tanks, cavalry, and artillery to destroy the Philippine Army forces. But it was the Philippine National Guard who killed thousands, not the Americans, and it was Pershing who sent his troops back home to slaughter many of them in the bloodiest civil war in history. - -In Vietnam, as US units destroyed hundreds or thousands of Vietnamese cities, their Vietnamese backers sent American troops to kill them. As Washington's "vietnamization" continued in Southeast Asia, civilians were rounded up and sent to prison camps. The US forces were fighting the Viet Cong, but the war did not end. It just shifted from one kind of regime to another. - -In Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States has destroyed many countries, including Iraq, Libya, Somalia, South Sudan, Syria, North Korea, and Iran. But, to the consternation of many Washington-fearing elites, these wars have not ended the regimes targeted by the United States. Instead, Washington has imposed "democracies" in some of the countries that were destroyed. - -It has done this in many cases to make room for the US-backed Saudi regime, in which women are treated as second-class citizens. It also has intervened to topple Qaddafi in Libya in order to create a new, pro-US puppet regime. - -A "Democracy" that has killed tens of thousands is not, on its face, a "credible and effective means to take out targets in the most dangerous places where terrorists are hiding." - -If Obama wanted regime change in Syria, he wouldn't have sent that tiny, ragtag, little army of Kurds to fight Assad in January 2014.

Trump has also sought to woo women in swing states , with the support of his daughter and son-in-law. - -His surrogates have tried hard to reassure voters that he would take their concerns seriously. But Trump's allies have also made an effort to court disaffected voters before the Republican National Convention begins in late July, in a clear effort to secure a convention bounce. - -And as they push for a convention bounce, many of Trump's allies are also trying to figure out how best to court black voters in battleground states. - -The Trump campaign is expected to continue hiring black operatives in the coming weeks, according to CNN's sources, after initially putting out feelers ahead of Cleveland about whether Bannon and other candidates would want to join the team. But it is not clear that those hires are helping the campaign at this point in the race, particularly given that the general election race between the two major-party candidates looks increasingly lopsided. The Clinton campaign believes a high-profile presence in the race from its black surrogates helps galvanize African American voters, particularly in states with high African American populations. - -Even more worryingly, however, is the potential that Trump's allies may have lost influence in key battleground states after a series of controversies over Trump -- some of which have been centered around racially charged rhetoric -- including his recent comments about Sen.

Trump issued the travel ban after the Syrian refugee ban was blocked in U.S. courts. The lawsuit notes that Trump "has used his official power and authority to discriminate against people because of their national origin." - -The ACLU also argued in a statement that it has provided "ample evidence of discrimination" and "repeatedly warned government officials that their decision to order ICE agents to disregard due process rights would have serious consequences." - -"The executive order is unconstitutional and un-American, and we intend to use every available means to defend this decision, including in court," ACLU Executive Director Anthony Romero told reporters outside the court. - -Trump's executive order has faced criticism within the media, and on social media. - -If the injunction is granted, the ACLU said it would ask the court to issue a permanent injunction on the "unconstitutionality" of the order. - -"President Trump has promised to reinstate President Obama's order that protected more than 75 million people from being torn apart by President Trump's Muslim ban. We're confident he'll do the right thing and end this unconstitutional ban," ACLU National Political Director Faiz Shakir said in a news release.

But in the process, millions of companies have vanished. - -As companies migrate their information to the cloud, they have to deal with the same issues. Here are five of the most common challenges they face. - -Rendering to the cloud is hard - -When the internet first started making its way onto home computers, it took years to get it to look just the way you expected. That wasn't the case with the cloud. Even today, you can get pretty good web design if you spend the time to make a decent looking website before publishing it to the cloud. - -But rendering a website to the cloud isn't the same as rendering it to an actual page. Even for small tweaks, that's going to require a lot of engineering. When a website first leaves the desktop, it takes some time to render. When the internet got the cloud, everything has to render on demand. That means the same technical limitations that come up when publishing to the web remain the same even with the cloud, so web designers have to re-educate themselves on render to the cloud again. - -Web developers have to create the same kinds of optimizations into their code, too - -Even more complicated is the fact that some of the most popular pieces of web software depend on the same code rendering on demand. Some services, like WordPress, use the same rendering engine in mobile web pages to improve reliability. Others, like the Google Drive storage service, rely on caching algorithms that can be quite effective. The best of these works on most computers, but it doesn't translate to all of them. - -It's a complex balancing act. All these features, while essential for their specific purposes, also make maintaining a site complicated. - -Making the web faster again means taking the best feature of your code and giving it to a cloud service that doesn't have the same issues. That's why developers must carefully think through which of the features they'll choose to give up. A simple, lightweight rendering engine can be useful when there aren't any specific optimizations in the code you use. But to get the best performance you need the most power possible, which makes the choice more complicated. - -For instance, an image loading animation is something you can easily optimize. But some web pages can actually hold images without breaking performance. The key is understanding how to optimize an image without breaking the site itself. - -There is no single solution that fixes everything - -Just because you have a cloud-hosted web site does not mean it will load as fast or as reliably as a site hosted on a single host.

There were few women's shelters for abused women at that time, but some women did see lawyers who would take their claims. An adult could be arrested and jailed for an assault but not jailed, in part, for not being aware that the person had abused them. In the absence of evidence about why they might have assaulted someone other than for sexual gratification, the adult could be convicted of assault, with a maximum jail sentence of two years (the maximum sentence was reduced after 1896). - -Sexual abuse of an adult male child was more likely to be punished than non-sexual abuse against a male child. After two rape convictions in London, the Crown Court judge expressed concerns about the high number of men convicted for sexual offences against boys. He wrote, "I should have thought, if anything, more was needed than a few additional cases, on which, in a jury room and where the defendant is represented by counsel, I think it difficult to convict." The only other known court decisions of child sexual abuse were the jury decisions in the cases of Alexander Verellen (1873) and J.H.F. (1874) where the father were found guilty of abuse but the father was convicted of child molestation. - -Other jurisdictions took the Crown Court's observations and held that an adult male child could be convicted for abusing a victim who was a boy. In New Zealand, the law was changed in 1891 so that when a boy was sexually abused, it became an offence, with a maximum penalty of two years imprisonment. In Australia, legislation was passed in 1907 for child molestations of boys, that included a maximum sentence of four years. - -In the United Kingdom, child sexual assault was considered a crime of "the lower order of offences", which, according to a report in the Daily Mail in 1888, was because of "the difficulty of proving in a court of law that the accused knew the age of the young victim." - -See, for example:<|endoftext|>H.R. 3413 (114th) was a bill in the United States Congress. - -A bill must be passed by both the House and Senate in identical form and then be signed by the President to become law. - -This bill was introduced in the 114th Congress, which met from Jan 6, 2015 to Jan 3, 2017.

I have read it thoroughly for more than a month while being away in India and the experience is that of a book by and for a woman – a very important point to consider if you are a woman wanting to write about feminism or women's issues. I enjoyed the book immensely and recommend it unreservedly. This book does not preach, preach and preach, however. While it may not have words that will stir the passions or change the lives of its readers, it does present an approach that is useful. For a first attempt, even an expert, it is a step in the right direction. And not just in India. - -The first sentence – "There was a time, when everything was black and white" makes me want to cry. The author describes a time when we all stood and saw only the world in a black and white way of the world. We saw things in black and white, like the two sides of the same coin: dark and bright, good and bad. Everything that happened could be understood in the manner of good and bad, so why would we believe in anything positive to come of something bad? - -There is a sense of hopelessness and pessimism in this sentiment: the black and white view of the world has been replaced by an outlook of not-knowing-if-anything is happening. The story of Ramashraya (or Ramjasumara) begins with the first day of the birth week of the boy. The book deals with the first month of his life, starting from that day when his father's name is given to him. The author takes us through the entire year when Ramaswami goes through various phases of his life. The birth of the son is not the centre of the story, rather it is the constant. It seems the author was inspired by this book, The Life and Times of Astrid, a book by the renowned Norwegian writer Lotte Håstad that deals with the life of the same character. (Lotte Hästad was a very important figure to me during my stay in India. She often travelled with me to meet with friends and fellow feminists. She used to teach at Harvard Law School. You can read more about Lotte Hästad's career here.) - -The author mentions two stages in Ramaswami's life that are the subject of the book. One is when he is a baby and the other is later on when he leaves that state. After some thought, we learn that the first stage was the most formative one in terms of his character: 'When he was a baby he didn't know that everything is a choice'. The second stage, about three years long, is the time of the boy growing up. - -Ramaswami's mother, named Panchami, tells us that when Ramaswami was small as a baby the mother-father duo sat in the house on the left side of the room. The father, the father-head of the household, would read a passage in the scriptures, while the mother-head sat on the other side of the room. 'Whenever it was our time to eat, we would stand on both sides of the table.' The father told her what he wanted to hear, 'What I had read in the scriptures and what I imagined for Ramaswami.' The mother-head would explain what she thought was important in that passage, while the father would 'look at her and listen intently'. 'The one who spoke the words he liked would receive the food…' The mother would be responsible for the care of the baby and the father for looking after him 'as he grew older'. All this was done 'with the purpose to make the boy grow up in a manner like that'. (p.17) - -We also learn that when Ramaswami reached 18, the couple got divorced and the mother-head returned to her native place. Panchami was then faced with her task to put Ramaswami through the rigours of worldly life. A man needs to understand how women have been treated by the world. She tells us that Ramaswami 'became a woman'. Now Ramjas is a man with a job, a house to decorate and everything to do, without the burden of the old woman. But there is much to learn from this chapter: 'His mother-head was right all along and she could still look at them both and make a lot out of them. But the older he grew, the more she worried and he needed a woman's advice…' - -From the age of 18 to 30, Ramaswami is very active in politics. A political party named Ramaswami (Mahasabha) is formed. Ramaswami is the head of this party. This chapter tells us not only about this political party but also about the personal life of -======================================== SAMPLE 401 ======================================== -Kenny Chesney, - -"The best of times.

I had just the slightest bit of pressure on the side of my neck which my neck does not use, which is probably why I can sleep with my head completely above neck level. It is also hard to believe that something is moving all around me, my body is completely covered.

Trey Gowdy, the Republican chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi, on Tuesday released the summary of an interview with Hillary Clinton, in which she acknowledged using a private email server for her official business, but she said she decided not to forward any of the emails to the State Department. - -Mrs. Clinton provided the email, written in February 2012 by her close aide Huma Abedin, that was sent to her from someone else. Mrs. Abedin was serving as Mrs. Clinton's deputy chief of staff at the State Department at the time. - -Mrs. Clinton, who is seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, also admitted that she had consulted with "State Department legal counsel" for advice about managing the correspondence. Mrs. Clinton said she decided against forwarding the emails, noting that they were not in the record. - -"I knew this matter might be perceived as potentially more than a simple convenience, but it ultimately was not. I decided, based on the factors and work involved, that using one's own email account was a reasonable and responsible way to conduct State Department business, and I took full responsibility for making that decision," Mrs. Clinton said. - -"The decision was not taken lightly, but given I was focused on setting up an email system and did not have time to go back and search for other solutions. I wish I had more time to go back and look at everything, but I could not find another option that met my standards," she said. "I did decide, however — in consultation with the Department, and with guidance from the Department's lawyers — I could not safely and effectively complete my work of setting up and maintaining a new email account with the security measures in place." - -Mrs. Clinton explained the email system was set up at her request, after she received a subpoena from a House committee investigating the 2012 attack on the State Department. Mrs. Clinton, like other secretaries of state, has relied on State Department lawyers to determine how and whether sensitive, classified information was handled and transferred. - -It is not clear how much the conversation with Mr. Gowdy and Mrs. Abedin about personal email accounts and State Department email systems has affected the timing of the disclosure of her own emails. As recently as a few days ago, several members of the GOP-controlled House Oversight and Government Reform Committee wanted to interview Ms. Abedin to know more about the emails, but she reportedly told them she couldn't speak about it. - -Mrs. Clinton also said in the interview that she was "not in the least bit surprised" about the existence of classified material on her server, but that it "wasn't something I was particularly concerned about." Last week, the State Department said the agency could not find any instance when email sent or received through Mrs. Clinton's server came in contact with classified information. - -In a statement, Mr. Gowdy said the interview showed a "total lack of concern" for national security. - -"She gave evasive answers with regards to national security issues," he said. - -Mrs. Clinton, who ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination last year, was interviewed by the committee on Dec. 2, after the State Department and former Secretary of State Colin L. Powell gave sworn statements. Mr. Powell said he had no knowledge of Mrs. Clinton's use of a private email server. - - -Copyright © 2018 The Washington Times, -======================================== SAMPLE 402 ======================================== -"There's nothing to hide - they're just trying to protect the country ...

Smith said. - -Smith said the evacuation was initially called on an emergency of a suspicious package near the Copley Square subway stop at about 7 p.m. He said the area was being evacuated because of a "pilot error" that led authorities to believe there was another suspicious package a couple blocks away. - -Advertisement Related Content Explosives found and Boston bomb device deemed safe - -He said several Boston police officers, firefighters, and federal agents searched the area but could not locate the second suspect the initial search had yielded. - -According to authorities, no explosives were found, though Smith said it had not been determined if anyone had been at risk. - -One woman who lives near Copley Square said the explosion felt like someone was digging a trench through the ground. - -"I feel like my house is being ransacked," said the woman, who did not want to be interviewed on camera, but said authorities told her all she had to do was run into her house to hide. - -Smith said there was an active crime scene. "It's still open at this point," he said. - -Police were still investigating where the package may have come from, but the area was cleared by noon Tuesday. - -Several streets were blocked when the evacuation occurred, though it was not clear how long the road closures may have been in place. - -AlertMe<|endoftext|>From MozillaZine Knowledge Base - -What are the limitations to the display of the "New Tab/Tab >" icon on a Windows-style screen? - -======================================== SAMPLE 403 ======================================== -As we were told recently, The Man in the High Castle returns with its seventh and final season in May, and EW has learned that season 7 will begin with the Man in the High Castle being revealed as its villain. In the first six episodes, fans had thought it was only a matter of time, but now it's happening. - -Creator Matt Zoller Seitz told EW about The Man in the High Castle's villain: - -As a longtime fan of the show, I'm looking to bring together the best elements of my past creations in order to do something new. And what better way to do so than reveal it is the most evil thing we've ever done — to have The Man in the High Castle be the villain in season 7? I hope that it plays to the kind of scale and scope that we've seen in season 6. We've been shooting in the Pacific Northwest. We're working with the original team — and we couldn't be more excited — because the new team is going to come in with an eye towards the bigger ideas that we're trying to get out there. In the past, Matt [Zoller Seitz] and I have both said that every year we go after the same story that's in the books, but then another element happens and it becomes a completely different story. This gives us an opportunity to do an entirely new story. - -Fans of the original series will recall that Man in the High Castle's main antagonist was actually the United States Government – a far larger threat than Nazi Germany and a threat that would ultimately bring the series to a close. - -The last time Man in the High Castle was mentioned in the credits for a new season, was in the fourth episode in the first season. It was during a montage depicting the history of the series. - -The second season will be released simultaneously with the seventh season, which is expected to conclude in the spring.

Most if not all of my designs and printers have been featured on E-Stunner, Makezine, Bunnings, Maker Shed, ModMyI, 3ders.com, Thingiverse, and dozens of popular Youtube channels. - -I started out as a full time freelance CAD / CNC machinist working in a major commercial factory.

We certainly all want to have a happy and safe ride and if that distraction makes it to the point where you become inattentive, the consequences could be pretty dangerous for everybody involved, including you," says O'Toole.

If Bain had invested in offshore companies in offshore tax havens, the Times asked, "Do you have any knowledge of Mr. Romney, then a partner, participating in any of them?" - -Of the more than 400,000 replies sent to the Times, only two mentioned Bain at all—one claiming he had invested in a company in Luxembourg that Bain did not manage and the other confirming that Romney was a Bain employee and that he had been "involved in a deal where he had to sign a release for a project that was not Bain's responsibility." - -That's an odd way to get any "knowledge" about Bain. - -As I previously reported, as well, - -[E]verything is different today. It is now widely known that Romney was a corporate jet pilot for Bain at the time of their business partnerships—he was one of the largest beneficiaries of the fund.

One, the whole "hacking is bad" business and the people that have made a living off of it. Two, the idea of having a "safe space." The idea of the Internet being a safe space because it doesn't encourage people to be mean. I like the idea of the Internet, mostly because it's safe. This leads to the third thing I'm going to talk about, which is the idea of "inclusion," aka equality with people on your side of the table. - -I like many of the things about the Internet, but I also want it to be as inclusive and friendly as possible. This was my reason for starting a blog called The Unbearable Whiteness of Women. It's about the problems of whiteness in the media, and as such, I think it can be very helpful for people. - -Recently, I've been listening to a few podcasts about how women in sports get treated. Like an "In your face," I guess, they're getting harassed everywhere they go online. What does it look like when you take people like the NFL and the NFL players, the people from the NBA, the people from the NHL, or people that cover basketball, and put them in a room against each other? Does one be more hostile to the other? That's what these podcast have been talking about. They're talking about the "In your face" treatment that men have in front of girls. This is something I'm also starting to care about, like I don't want to be the person I look like, I don't want to have to deal with that every day of my life. - -It wasn't until I learned about this stuff that it all became clear for me. I'm so used to the people from media being friendly with the people they cover. I love their coverage of different sports. I love that they come out to the city where their story is set, they show their fans the love, while at the same time being a real person. I love that they have the confidence to bring the most popular sport in the world to their hometown, to the people in their community. What I didn't know about is the harassment that can come with it. - -We saw something like this with the NBA, when their commissioner was booed off the court for saying something that was against Twitter and Twitter rules against vulgar language during an interview. The audience was upset by that. People made an angry comment or two against the commissioner and that was that. - -When a man and a woman are on my side of the table, I'm not going to worry about how we treat each other. I'm going to worry about how we treat the people in this room. How we treat me. How we treat other people. It's important to talk about it when someone like NBA commissioner Adam Silver is being booed off-court on a live TV broadcast. It's important to talk about it when NBA players are getting booed at games all over the world for having sexual relationships outside of their marriage. - -It's important to talk about what we're about and where our priorities are. In the comments section of any site I have any connection with (The Unbearable Whiteness of Women, my site, other social media accounts, or even just a phone call), we get to talk about this stuff. It's important to talk about it, and we can all agree that it's a pain for the person that is getting bullied. There are so many people that are trying so hard to make us all feel comfortable and safe, and this is the one thing they're being denied! I want to try and make the community at The Unbearably Whiteness of Women a place I feel safe and welcome. The one where people are allowed to talk about whatever and feel comfortable, because I would hope that's the case in every community, but I do know that it's not everywhere. - -The Unbearable Whiteness of Women is part of a series.

The good news is that it isn't terminal (according to the Mayo Clinic) so don't immediately start panicking. Here are three things a diabetic should do to keep healthy: Get tested for diabetes at least once every 3 years (see above for what to do if your test comes back negative). - -Have a blood panel. We have three major blood panels: a fasting blood test, a glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test, and a lipid profile (basically fat and carb breakdown, plus inflammation and blood sugar). Your physician or a health consultant can help you find the healthiest one for you. - -Eat more whole grains, fruits, veggies, and lean protein. These will help reduce your blood sugar levels, which can lower your risk of kidney failure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.

My anxiety seemed to be based upon the fact I didn't belong. I thought that by showing weakness it would be an indicator of weakness and that I was not as important, or that I was not as intelligent. I was told that my natural anxiety was a form of insecurity, that I didn't like myself, and that I was unworthy. These messages were not helpful. In time, I realized that my anxieties were caused by these two sources: a faulty view of myself and a lack of confidence about my abilities. In the end all of my anxiety could be traced back to this single flaw which I had never addressed. In time I learned the difference between confidence and insecurity. A confidence based on success in life and love, is self-reinforcing. If the confidence is not self-reinforcing, the anxiety will remain, and it will continue to eat at us. - - -In the past few decades we have seen an increasing demand for information on the origins of anxiety and its treatments, and of course with the advent of the internet, we have an ever expanding range of available knowledge. We are also seeing an increase in the number of self-help books, seminars, and self-help gurus. There are now an abundance of books (mainly self-help guides) and there are seminars and workshops. It seems that anxiety has become a big business. I would suggest that the growth of anxiety is being fueled by a fear of growing old, being lonely, and being unappetizing. In his book Why Men Fail, Malcolm Gladwell notes how anxiety and self-defeating thoughts have traditionally been addressed by people that are on the fringes of society. Gladwell calls these people, "the weak-minded" and they are more concerned with appearing weak and being in the minority. These weak-minded people have been identified by Gladwell as, "the weak-voiced." What this means is that the weak-voiced person believes he is smarter than others and thus he tries to stand out. - -The most dangerous weak voice is the weak-voiced person who is so confident that he is too confident. A strong-voiced man is less concerned with being seen by others as powerful, and more concerned about being in control -======================================== SAMPLE 408 ======================================== -The American Bar Association and the Association of American Medical Colleges today issued statements urging public health officials to prohibit the importation of imported Kratom after its DEA administrator announced its scheduling. - -Kratom was introduced to the United States in the late 1980s as a traditional "indigenous product" that is used in Southeast Asia as an herbal remedy to control opioid withdrawals. However, this was a misnomer since the botanical leaves contained no opioid-like activity. Since its appearance in the U.S. market, the herbal supplement has become increasingly embraced by consumers looking for alternatives to prescription opioids. - -The American Pharmacists Association has stated that there is no evidence to support that Kratom products present an unreasonable risk to users or others around them. The AMA and AAMC have long advocated for a thoughtful, evidence-based approach to the legal classification of the herbal supplement. - -The following is a statement from the ABA and AAMC on the matter: - -"The decision by the U.S. DEA to include kratom as a Schedule 1 substance is an unfortunate development and, by extension, represents an unnecessary infringement on the individual freedoms of citizens. The U.S. Attorney General's decision to seek a temporary injunction against the importation of kratom from Indonesia and Thailand is wholly inappropriate, and the DEA should refrain from taking similar action in the future. - -"Kratom has been used throughout history to treat many conditions and, if responsibly researched, potentially has tremendous benefits as a medical treatment option. Unfortunately, that promise has been overshadowed by claims by some proponents and in the media that kratom is somehow harmful or addictive and an imminent public health crisis.

Rightscorp was able to confirm that the KickassTorrents network delivered 7.4 billion torrents. - -The company went on to say that KickassTorrents' servers contained copies of millions of movies, TV shows, and music tracks. - - -"[It] appears that the KickassTorrents network was primarily targeted for distribution to the public, and specifically, was not targeted toward the particular IP addresses for whom the KickassTorrents network was built in this case," Rightscorp said. - -KickassTorrents has not yet commented.<|endoftext|>The New York Red Bulls (6-3-3, 26 points) are set to travel to Columbus (5-3-4, 17 points) this coming Saturday at 9 p.m. The match will be televised on Lifetime at 8:30 p -======================================== SAMPLE 409 ======================================== -What Is It Like To Live Inside A Big Screen? - -By Matt Stoller | Industry | June 19, 2012 | - -You've probably seen it a million times by now: a group of people huddled around a big screen. It's their only entertainment. But what's it like inside that big screen? The New York City subway is lined with theaters, and some of them can actually be more fun to hang out in than some of the bars and clubs of the city. - - -It helps if they're built in historic buildings, but the best ones are in buildings that look like they were built on a beach—that look like buildings everyone's had an argument with. Think of them like an extended outdoor play area, or something between a big-screen theatre and a bar. - -On this list we're looking at some of the most exciting theaters in New York City. You'll probably find your own favorite, so put your suggestions in the comments. - -*Note: This list is sorted in order of my favorite thing to do on the subway, which is always pretty fun. - -Theaters - -Grand Central Market - -Grand Central Market, New York (Grand Central Station) - -We're not sure exactly how they got on our list, but that's probably the most fun movie I've seen (or a close second). - -The building is filled with giant food carts, the largest one of which might actually be too small to fit on that big screen. - -We also get a few cool locations in the basement, which was probably the largest part of the restaurant the theater was built into. - -Museum of the Moving Image, NYC - -New York Museum of the Moving Image - -It's difficult to pick a favorite. The museum looks so great and is packed with unique films (including those starring Tom Hanks). - -The museum has an incredible rotating screen, but it's a bit of a dive, which means it can be hard to keep up with the movies being shown. But once you're there? You'll be like 'why didn't we all do this earlier??' - -Union Square - -Union Square (Union Square Park's west side) - -It's kind of magical to be on the lower level of a theater—which is where you'll find more free popcorn (seriously!), so much more free hot dogs (seriously!), AND a bunch of free popcorn. - -There's a giant screen and a stage. The stage, by the way, is actually the second longest stage in the museum. The larger one of the two, which is located in front of the main building, is much lower, as I said. - -Grand Opera House, Chelsea - -Grand Opera House - -I just love the feel of that building–there's just nothing better than taking a train through an opera house! You can walk around on an enclosed balcony or climb the big screen. - -But the best part of taking in a performance is when it's time to leave for the next one: there's a parking lot outside. People on subway cars would just hop in their cars and do the same thing. It's awesome. - -MoMA PS1, Chelsea - -MoMa PS1 - -That would be the MoMA's beautiful large screen, which is located near the lobby. - -The PS1 stands alone in the theater, which makes walking through it a little confusing…until you realize that it's kind of a weird way to view live theatre. But hey: you can sit on the stairs! - -Rockefeller - -Rockefeller Center - -The lobby and lobby area of the Rockefeller Center is filled with a lot of the same types of businesses that you see in other large parks like the Metropolitan Park or Central Park. They also show a lot of movies on flat screens, all of them are good for a walk around…and also make it easy to find where you are–just walk north on 42nd St. - -A number of the theaters on this list will be opening new movie theaters later this year or early next year—so check in each time we update this list to see what movies may be playing.<|endoftext|>Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -Trevor - -T -======================================== SAMPLE 410 ======================================== -By Jeff Leahey / New York Daily News - -The latest in a long series of lawsuits against the Empire State Building that has been pending since 1993, has now resulted in a $10 million payout to a homeless couple. - -Joseph Andres and his girlfriend, Barbara Ann Zabinsky, were living on the building's upper levels and said they got into a fight with an NYPD officer, resulting when the officer used a baton to stun Andres and a broken cigarette lighter to stun Zabinsky. - -The lawsuit claimed that at no point before the first, and then second, baton strike that ended with Andres in the hospital and Zabinsky in the bed had Andres or anyone else ever approached them and asked for help. - -In response, Empire State Building said in a statement Thursday it had settled with them to avoid all litigation, according to WCBS-TV. - -The settlement, which the couple must pay themselves, is part of a "significant payout" to homeless people "who have endured years of frustration and hardship, both physically and psychologically," according to a legal filing from the Empire State Building's lawyers. - -A spokesman for the Empire State Building did not return calls or emails Friday.<|endoftext|>There are some areas in your neighborhood that you would not think are bad, but that could have a significant impact on your health.

Many of these streets are also bad for property values. - -The City Planning Department analyzed the 20 worst roads that pass through our neighborhoods and determined that all of these roads have been rated "poor" or "moderate to poor." - -Some have even been awarded the "poor" rating, which means that it's "the weakest links in the safety architecture of neighborhoods and the most vulnerable areas around the roads." - -What's worse is that some of these streets are in areas where the residents are already experiencing higher crime rates than other areas.

Delaney, from the University of Pennsylvania, told the BBC. Delaney and his colleagues have published the findings, which they said would require a "massive amount of work" to analyze further. - -Agaricus blazei is considered one of the first cases of its kind, so there's no known species in that genus. They were able to figure out what species they were looking at thanks to a combination of genetic testing techniques and DNA analysis. - -Related: Can You Pass on Herpes to Other Species Like You Can to Humans? - -"We're not going to know, we don't know, until somebody takes a stab at looking at the genome of this organism one more time with a more powerful technique," Delaney said, but noted that "one thing that is certain is that there is something new in the picture." - -It's unlikely that the new species will pose a threat to a human, but Delaney's team believes it could potentially be an environmental pest, which could eventually be controlled using traditional fungicide. - -The researchers are planning future genetic analysis of the new species' DNA, in order to better understand what exactly it does and which traits it has, in hopes of using them for new tools.<|endoftext|>SINGAPORE - The National Environment Agency (NAO) has denied a request by an environmental conservation group for a report which could have provided evidence of the impact on marine life of the construction of the $1.7 billion East Coast Pipeline (ECP). - -The request was made in July last year by the Singapore Marine Science Association -======================================== SAMPLE 411 ======================================== -What are you looking to see happen in the upcoming year? - - -What are you looking to see happen in the upcoming year?<|endoftext|>A new survey reveals that, overall, Americans aren't as enamored of Obamacare as most political figures (although this may be due to political opportunism, rather than a true desire for reform). The poll, conducted between October 19 and 24 by Health Care for America Now and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, reveals that nearly half don't intend to keep an Obamacare policy for the rest of their lives — if they do, they're unlikely to sign up for an Obamacare policy next year. - -In case you don't fully grasp that figure, I've put together a short graph to summarize the top-line findings of the survey. (In case the visual doesn't make it clear, those are "insurance policies" and not "health insurance," or perhaps not even "insurance." My bad.) - -As the chart demonstrates, roughly one in five voters (21%) said they had decided not to renew their Obamacare policies from 2014 — meaning that about 8 percent of the U.S. population have found a way to find an alternative health insurance policy that works for them this year and next. One in six voters (21 percent) have no plans to renew and, by extension, have lost this insurance coverage. - -While these results could point to continued opposition within Congress to the Affordable Care Act — the survey shows that "one in three Republicans are not familiar with the law" — at least one thing is clear: A decent chunk of the American population are finding a way to avoid Obamacare. - -How do you feel about Obamacare's enrollment?<|endoftext|>Still loading... - -A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 2 3 4 9 10 13 14 18 24 26 5 5 6 7 8 9 10 15 17 20 21 12 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 18 21 22 20 27 21 21 22 14 28 23 23 24 25 26 28 29 23 24 27 28 29 30 29 31 30 30 22 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 - -Loading...

I talked about the history and implications of the term 'sexist' and how it had grown out of the original anti-feminist backlash (I wrote about this in more detail in my Gender Wars book). They said: - -"Sexism has always existed, for as long as there have been male and female roles. The problem with feminism is that it is focused on destroying gender roles. It is the problem of men trying to control women." - -The phrase 'the other side of the fence' comes to mind. But what do I mean by this? I'm not talking about being on our other side, as some people have suggested. I'm talking about how we talk about the issues of sexism in popular culture and in the broader social landscape. - -I've noticed how much we focus on the female perspective, even though we are still dominated by women in the workplace and in social relationships. So often, we're accused of sexist bias. We're accused of perpetuating sexism when we talk about women being more 'emotional' or "neurotic," even when we're saying things like: a) we have to work harder, b) we have to talk a lot, c) we're less intelligent than men. It's the same thing as blaming men for 'mansplaining' or 'mansplaining.' I've experienced this too – I was accused of sexism when I criticized a popular TV character for being a 'damsel in distress.' - -And of course, there are plenty of very negative things said about men who are angry, aggressive, dominant, etc. But of course, men are also accused of that stuff too. - -So what's the real question: how would you describe yourself? - -What would you say we do wrong? - -If we're doing it wrong, then let's talk about it. - -What do you believe to -======================================== SAMPLE 412 ======================================== -The National Security Agency has the authority and the means to access your private Internet traffic as well as the communications from your phone calls and Web surfing.

However, Papachristus does have a few differences to its relatives. For one, it is the only other bird in the world named after a Roman Emperor: Emperor Maximilian. - -Papachristus is a medium sized bird with a stout head, long feathers and a pair of heavy front legs. Its plumage is dark brown on the breast and wing tips, light brown along the back and yellow on the breast. The bill is brown with dark red tips. - -The male, or larger, and female, or smaller, members of this species are quite similar. Although only a few of the species have been observed in captivity, both members of the species have similar vocalizations and territorial displays and are relatively easy to domesticate. - -There have not been nearly as many species discovered as there have been records made of a few common Papachristus species. Most of these have been known from living populations of captive birds. Thus, no information is available concerning this bird's genetic diversity. - -A good place to start is to read some descriptions about the species from birders of the last ten years. - -Biology: Papachristus is a tropical species of Old World finch. However, populations are found to varying extents in North America, South America, China, and Australia. - -Its distribution is restricted to an area of roughly 50,000 square kilometers. Most of Papachristus' wintering areas are in South America. Its breeding range is the Indian Ocean. - -This bird is an immigrant to North America, a migratory bird. Although migratory birds can go on to breed anywhere in the world, migratory species tend to be most often seen with the exception of the avifauna from Europe and Australia. - -This species is not known to be a breeding bird of humans, or other warm-blooded animals. - -In the wild, Papachristus will often fly from one perch to another, often to a place where they can find a place to roost. They also feed on a wide variety of plants of the genus Pyrus. - -The wing membrane of this bird is composed of two membranes that are intertwined and connect to the bird's feet. The two membranes are attached to the feet by an elaborate system, composed of a flexible webbing of fine fibers called filaments. - -Male Papachristus are known from the southern parts of North America, from British Columbia, to the Florida Keys and southern Texas, -======================================== SAMPLE 413 ======================================== -In the coming weeks, many people expect a new episode of the American health care conversation to hit an iceberg in this country. President Trump and congressional Republicans have announced a new version of Obamacare they say will bring down costs. The latest version was introduced in the Senate a couple weeks ago and is still not a bill yet. Democrats have already said they would block any such bill. - -But a number of the most important factors in the creation of Obamacare — premiums, deductibles, cost-sharing assistance, coverage requirements — have been in place since 2010 and could continue well beyond 2017. (That does not mean that the new plan will be great; it is not.) But there are some big changes expected, ones that would greatly affect both consumers and insurers. Here's a list: - -1) Premiums - -Obamacare's premium hikes are already happening. A group of 13 health care analysts that includes four Republican and four Democratic analysts found that the average "silver" premium for a midsize group plan (that is, a plan with around 100 enrollees) will increase by 20 percent next year, compared with this year. - -Another group of researchers found that premiums will rise another 6–12 percent on average in 2018. Even if you only look at the individual market, premiums will rise an average of 20–24 percent compared with 2017. And insurers have already been cutting back on their generosity, as the New York Times's Robert Pear reported in December. Some insurers have begun canceling plans that cost more than 8 percent of employees' income, according to Robert Laszewski, author of a blog called Healthcare Marketplace Watch. - -A handful of states that set their own premium rates have found their exchanges are facing more instability than expected, and they're still working out how to get the federal funds they need to keep paying subsidies without going broke. - -2) Co-pays and deductibles - -Co-pays and deductibles, though, were always a part of the original plan. The original health care law (and, for that matter, the tax policy plan of the 1990s) included provisions to reduce out-of-pocket health spending. - -But while Obamacare made some headway last year, most people are still paying way too much of their medical bills out of pocket to be "affordable." The average deductible for an individual plan last year was about $5,000 — in 2015, that cost $17,000. - -In a 2014 paper for JGR, Jeffrey Young found that there are many ways for insurance companies to reduce the impact of medical costs on patients, such as "contributions by patients and employers" and "the use of the financial risk-sharing mechanism that is intended to encourage patients to adopt preventive care, save for their medical care expenses, and reduce the need to engage in high-cost emergency care activities." - -Coinsurance plans, designed to prevent high-cost patients from being billed too much for treatment, have been popular among consumers. But they also make it harder for people to get the coverage they need, according to a 2015 study from the Commonwealth Fund, a Boston–based nonprofit organization that funds research on health care costs and outcomes. - -The Affordable Care Act made significant changes to how insurance companies assess medical needs and their ability to reduce coverage expenses. This has contributed to lower-than-expected rates of co-payments: In 2014, for example, 64 percent of insurers said they had lower co-pays compared with a year before, according to a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services report. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services also published a survey of insurance companies earlier this year that showed that they were expecting about 70 percent fewer enrollees this year, partly as a result of the new "essential health benefits" rules — for example, that health care covered by an insurer must include "hospitalization, emergency services, physician services … and hospice care." (Some health policy experts worry that limiting benefits could result in insurers hiking the costs of the plans to cover them.) - -But insurance companies are already pushing back, as I discussed in an earlier post. "We do know there are going to be significant challenges," says Charles Gaba, senior fellow at the Century Foundation. "But the administration is really getting its feet wet on the Obamacare regulatory agenda right now, and we're just waiting and watching to see where it goes." - -3) Co-pays and deductibles seem more generous - -This was a big goal for proponents of the Affordable Care Act. They wanted to give consumers more money to spend on their medical needs and keep insurance more affordable for consumers. Unfortunately, as we have written before, some consumers who have to pay so much out of pocket simply do not pay it. In 2014, after reviewing data on premiums and deductibles across the 50 states, the Commonwealth Fund found that on average, Americans paid $2,532 for their medical bills in 2014, with co-pays and deductibles averaging $2,160. -======================================== SAMPLE 414 ======================================== -As a kid I never knew of the "T" in the word Tramp, but as someone who came of age in the '50s, I'm glad I did. It's a word that tells us that, at the very least, the Tramp was a man who didn't shy away from hard work and risk. - -The word can come from two different sources. First, in the words of Merriam-Webster, the name is derived from "Transylvania," a region in southern Romania. The town is named after the nobleman who settled there, so perhaps the Tramp was a man who came from Transylvania, or who had spent time there (or was related to those who had). - -More likely the origin is the word Trombe, meaning "a man or boy who has worked, traveled through or lived in some frontier district" or a boy who was a "tramp or runaway." - -There is, then, a strong connection to Transylvania. A common theme in T-roll story are the poor, wandering T-rolls who traveled to and lived in the wilds of Transylvania. The Tramp fits well with these motifs, and as the stories developed he came to be known as a hero that crossed borders both on foot and by horse. - -What makes the Tramp so iconic, though, is also what makes him so misunderstood. In the first place, there is no connection between the Tramp and "Trombe." Trombe was a man who "trafficked" for money, not for anything else, not even for pleasure. He was more like a traveling salesman. He went from village to village. You could call him a trader who traveled for gold. In fact, one of his most famous poems is about buying and selling gold. Here's a little excerpt, though, from one of his poems called "The Golden Goose": - -I had just come back from Transylvania, - -Where I'd bought gold for twenty pieces, - -Two pieces from each peasant I sold - -But now for gold I come to find - -Four pieces to me. - -Tobacco pipes and bags of grain - -And gold in the pockets are not the Tramp's - -Reason for being. - -The Tramp may be a traveler, and his journey is in part a quest for his own personal gain, but he still has a heart of gold and a sense of honor, despite the dangers he faces. In his stories, he travels throughout Europe and even the Middle East, and he doesn't care what his destination is—he just wants to get back on his feet. He's a man who doesn't try to live a luxurious life, and who isn't ashamed to be poor (though it's not clear as to what his income was as a kid). - -In fact, the Tramp may be a bit less wealthy than he appears, and he may not have had the greatest means of transportation in his youth. The author of "The Golden Goose" tells us that he got the idea for the poem from a story told by a traveling salesman. The salesman had gotten lost in a forest, and was afraid, when he realized he couldn't find his way back into town, that he would never be seen again. He would be a lost man, and he would die a lonely death. When asked where he would die, the salesman replied that he wouldn't die; he would just give up. (His words, not mine.) - -There's more to the story, of course. What the salesman didn't tell the traveler was that he had made it to the small town of Bracken, near Bristol, during the last days of the Roman Empire, where he lived and worked in a tavern, and later, lived in a manor there. And, while the shopkeeping skills he learned in his travels are evident in his work, he couldn't have been poor for long; he had a wife and a farm and a stable. The Tramp may not have had the money, but he's not a "tramp" as such. He doesn't try to live a luxurious life: he just doesn't live so lavishly that he can't keep up with the cost of buying all the food he eats and all the money he travels with—and with his daughter and son. - -By most accounts, he was about twenty-four when he left home and went off on his travels—though we all know that was before the invention of cars and the telegraph and the telephone with which to relay messages across the world. He might have even died during his travels. His daughter eventually remarried, and it is rumored that her new husband, who lived in the area as a soldier during the war, might be the one to discover and bury his father in Transylvania. And it is rumoured that when the T-roll's -======================================== SAMPLE 415 ======================================== -There is a very common misconception that if you play games on a PC then you can't play for a long time.

John Stossel - -When something is worth saving–anything–you will struggle to live without it. This is because for humans all valuable properties are inherently valuable. The difference is, for a human to possess something that's worth saving–anything–it must be scarce. In other words, there must be something you can't have. So the value of whatever's being saved must be proportional to its scarcity. - -Now suppose an interesting man named John Stossel tells you that saving money is more valuable than your wife's happiness.

Police said an FIR has been filed against Subhash Sharma under provisions of the IPC's stringent Protection of Children from Sexual Offences. - -The complaint dated 28 April claimed that former Congress minister Sarbjeet Kumar Sheek and her family members were abducted on the way to visit their office in New Delhi at approximately 2:30 am on the morning of April 28. The complaint named the two accused, Nupur Sharma and Sarbanand Sharma, as accused. The complaint stated that Nupur Sharma was accompanied by her brother and another family member. - -The complaint alleged that Sarbanand Sharma and Nupoor took Sarbjeet Sharma to a secluded place with a man named Rustom Samaali and forced her to withdraw money from a bank before abducting her. "Sarbanand threatened to take both of them to the district court for lodging of complaints. Sarbanand used the same ruse several times," the complaint stated, adding that Nupur Sharma returned home in the evening following the incident and narrated the incident to her family members. - -The FIR was registered on the basis of the complaint received by Sarbanand Sharma, police said.

Instead, the city plans to go with an increased use of a combination of cash and borrowing for the cost of the investigation in order to avoid having to sell city assets. - -The investigation comes as a result of a damning 2015 report from the department's own Inspector General, who cited repeated failures by the city's public defender, who was accused of covering up and failing to investigate sexual assaults and robberies by members of the Chicago Police Department. - -"While the attorney general, the city's inspector general and a wide range of experts have noted the systemic deficiencies in the [Chicago public defender's] system, the CPD officers' misconduct and cover-up continue to go largely unchecked," the report said after it was written. - -The report found that the Chicago Police Department, which is a wholly owned division of the Chicago Public Defender's office that was created in 2002, fails to "adhere to established procedure and law" and "is subject to a wide range of procedural violations that can be directly attributed to inadequate supervision." - -The report detailed how the Chicago Police Department was "unable to effectively discipline the officers for their misconduct," instead citing misconduct by officers in a "number of other cases." - -The office that oversees the attorney who handles cases with Chicago police is required to send its investigation results and recommended action to the city, where officials must act on such findings, "when they find that city employees have failed to provide appropriate due process to alleged victims." - -After the report was written, the city turned to its inspector general at the request of Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez. - -The police officers who were accused of covering-up the crimes were identified by the Chicago Tribune through a Freedom of Information Act request, where it found that a total 15 officers were accused of failing to report to police reports of crimes in which they were actually part of the investigating team. - -Five officers were accused of withholding reports altogether, with reports that alleged multiple rapes from incidents in the days before Christmas and more than a dozen attempted attacks that occurred on the morning of Jan. 2, 2015. - -The Chicago Police Department said that, with the exception of an officer who violated department rules, no officer has been disciplined over the cover-up and that it -======================================== SAMPLE 417 ======================================== -The "Hooking Up in the Back," a column about a hookup culture that's out of hand in today's hookup culture, is a popular column from many a young writer. It can be an eye-opening glimpse into a young man's inner life and a refreshing read for people who are tired of the same old stories. If it is like most other "Hooking Up in the Back" columns, it contains what are deemed "unhealthy" and often "unworthy" stories of hookup culture. We're going to do the same, but to a different audience. - -A "Hooking Up in the Back" column, in part, is a piece of art that needs to be heard and shared by someone with the audience, because it takes a lot of time and sometimes money to make art that everyone gets to hear. We are here to do two things: show you our art and give you the truth. - -We don't just want to tell you how to get laid. We want to talk about why you're in the same boat and let you in on one of the biggest lies your friends tell you about sex and hooking up. - -Here's that truth: - -Hooking Up in the Back: A lot of women have a good idea where the fun begins, because it's at a club. - -Well, yeah, a certain portion of young men will hook up at a club, but as long as some guys aren't going to a club to hang out and get to know these women, it shouldn't be too hard to find some women you'll like. The truth is, there are some clubs that women just aren't feeling at at this point, but that also doesn't make them any less of a good place to try to meet those women if you want to. As we said, there's no reason for these places to be bad at this particular time. - -Hooking Up in the Back: Guys who go to one club to find that one woman aren't actually looking to meet a lot more women and are looking for what we call the "fun," because they expect to meet some hot and horny girl. - -Again, we're not telling you that the club scene is full of men in their 20s who are getting together just because that's what they were born to do. These are guys who have a lot to learn when it comes to hooking up, and they just aren't aware of what makes the club scene different from the other places they might be at that night. If they were, they'd be looking for a different type of hookup. We're telling you there is, indeed, a "fun." - -Hooking Up in the Back: There's no single reason why the club scene is so bad at this particular time of night. - -There are so many reasons that hooking up in a club won't work for you, but here's what really does. - -It doesn't matter where you go to get women anymore. If your girlfriend is already in the club, a place where she's hanging out anyway, you won't stand out as a guy who hangs out and makes sure to get a woman there. And once you get a good group of girls together, where they want to be, why not show those ladies your stuff, get some girls to like you, and leave? Not everyone is comfortable in the party scene and it just takes one girl who sees you and likes you to make things better. And guess what? Sometimes you're going to have to be the one to give the girl the attention she needs and the attention that's necessary to make all the bad situations of sex easier for you. - -Hooking Up in the Back: Some of these girls are hot! Maybe that's why so many guys go to the same places. Maybe they can't get a girl at the clubs because of their personality! - -It doesn't matter. If what you want is not there but if what you want is hot girls, don't worry overmuch about the places where you go to find them. The only way this situation gets better is if you find a hot girl who's ready to like you and then make her yours, and you do all this by yourself. There's just no other way. - -Hooking Up in the Back: These girls have nothing to do with you and you have nothing to do with them. - -Hooking Up in the Back: They'll still take advantage of you and you will still be a slut. - -Okay, so I don't mean to say women who go to clubs have no value other than their looks. Many of them do. As we said, they want to be with the hot guy and he wants them, or she wants to be with the handsome guy and he wants to be with her, and both wants to screw someone else.

That the White House has taken so long to make its case to support the president underscores the degree to which he is still finding his footing. When he took office, Mr. Trump said he would be a president for all Americans and, in his first month in office, has repeatedly called out the travel ban as hurting minorities, women and veterans in a way that benefited the most powerful and wealthy people in the country. - -He has been unusually silent about his team's ties to Russia, although several members have been forced to step back from public roles after their ties to the country were revealed, and others may soon be. But he has refused to disavow either Michael G. Flynn, his former national security adviser, or Paul J. Manafort, the president's former campaign chairman. The two men have also provided White House officials with regular updates about their contacts with Russia, although neither was ever fully corroborated. - -"I think you will be very impressed," Mr. Kelly said. - -The president's decision to go to Mar-a-Lago for lunch was met with some skepticism by White House officials who believed that he could help his allies by addressing a more intimate event. Some said Mr. Trump could be forced to give more details about whether he had met privately with Russian officials and others in the Oval Office last month.

And so for me, the question is this: Are we going to let those who would divide us by our differences lead us to be afraid of the future?" - -The president said the United States, the United Nations and the rest of the world would continue to work together. He called for people to unite in opposition to terrorism. "So, let me be very clear. The United States remains committed to the freedom, the justice and the dignity of every person and every community in the Middle East," he told a news conference. - -American military officials had for years pushed for an increase in military aid to the United Nations system.

People know of the ancient wisdom and their connection to the gods, but no one really knows what they are. Some are saying this is a story told by God, and others have said it is a way of life for humans. You've got to see this movie and find out what your fellow world citizens believe about the ancient masters. - - -WARNING TO SPOILERS - This movie is full of deep, dark and powerful messages. Please do not watch this movie if you are not mentally ready for these subjects. If you are willing to take the time to see this movie with eyes open, then this experience is very worthwhile. - - -The film presents an ancient Greek myth told through the eyes of a 12-year-old boy. He is placed into the world of a normal kid, as a result of the "Wisdom of the Ancients," a secret society and philosophy created in the ancient Greece by the legendary philosopher Plato. Plato's message to the citizens of the world is that there is a way to get out of reality and live a life beyond mortal life. - - -In one instance, the boy's mother is visited by an old, elderly man, and tells him he must learn about Plato's philosophy. Her grandson then sees a statue depicting Plato. In that vision, the boy's mother says the figure is Plato, and the man tells him if he lives a life of philosophy that he will live a very long life. - - -On a quest for wisdom, the boy meets Socrates, who is a representative of this ancient school. Socrates guides him to some of the philosophies of the time and teaches the boy the meaning of life. The boy is taken aback by the philosophy, and he begins to change. - - -He begins to think about the world around him, and why he is in it. Plato sees in him the potential for enlightenment, and asks him to read his book. As the boy reads, he begins to develop a love for truth which would become a key theme throughout the film. - - -The movie ends with a final scene of the boy reading his book and looking out to see a beautiful day. He then looks up and we see him in a cloud of dust. It's then that we realize the story is not over. This film is full of messages to live in truth and honor each other. This is the most important life lesson the film presents. It has also received the most critical acclaim from film critics. - - -So if anything the movie does it teaches you to always check your intentions at the door. No one is safe from what is in the shadows. Do the right things and you will always be rewarded. - - -The Wisdom of the Ancients is a unique movie. It is a movie you cannot forget. It is a movie you must view with fresh eyes. There are too many points of view and ways of thinking and experiencing this story to describe. - - -The film is beautifully directed and it shows the truth that we have lost since WWII to those who seek it. Even though we have had 50 years to educate ourselves on what the world has gone to, we have lost the ability to know the truth. - - -It teaches you to live a life of truth and honor that leads to your own ultimate bliss. There is no such thing as a free lunch as you will not be able to have it forever. The movie does not take credit for its ideas or its themes, which I consider it to be one of the best things ever made. It merely offers a powerful message and a story to live by. - - -The movie is one of the most beautiful pieces I have watched and to be quite honest it is one of the most powerful movies of all time. It is a movie that will change your life, but not for the better. - - -Rating:<|endoftext|>This product is currently on backorder. - -Be the first to hear about new products: Join the thousands of people receiving the Mophie Weekly Update email! - -What makes these wireless earbuds different?

I.e. the less you have the more you can take. For a starting character, this means you will usually have a minimum of 2-3 things you want in the game. -In most cases you can probably pick something nice and small for your starting area. In my case it's a small house in my starting village of the town of Rovinon. -As you can see I have already put some decorations and items in it so hopefully it will feel like my own little house. This is how you get items in your home. -As you are probably seeing, there are three slots in my home for items. -These items are just the kind that you would probably find on someone else's farm but not actually on your own. -For example for a food stuff I am using a lot, I would pick up wheat, carrots, and wheat flour. -I'm using a lot of cooking items too, like the recipe book for cooking. -Also, if you have your house setup then this would be a good place to use a small chest to store your stuff. -These are just a few examples. -You should now be sure what you want in your house. -Now lets try and see what kind of stuff we can put in there. -So here's an empty food table. -There's nothing in there, you can't put anything in there. -I also want a small chair, so I grabbed a small bed from our crafting table. -As you can see there are some items in there. -They are items that you would find on a farm somewhere. You can buy them from other towns to save money, these items are also called farmable items. -You can find more of those in the game but you have to pay for them (or find them from town) -But we want to put some actual items in there. So I got some buckets and some bottles. -These are kind of cool, you can make your own water. I'll get into that later, but if you use these you can also make your own beer, wine, or tea. Also if you get a new house or something and need more items, you can just go to the same crafting station and add more items. -So to put it back together, its time to put those things in it! -Once you have put all of your things in, it's time to try to move items into your house. -Again, you want to put the item in one or more of the slots, so here it is in the kitchen. -This is the place I would get all of those dishes as I would want to do a lot of cooking on my farm. -Some of these items are a lot like the food table. If you're looking for any of those then you should probably go to your farm right now and make food. -Once you've put all your items into your home then you can go back and forth between your house and a farm. Here it is, my house with the farm. -There's a water well in my house, which isn't very useful. I put it behind the house so I can go right to it when I need water. -If I needed more things like a cooking pot or even barrels, I wouldn't use the kitchen in the house I got it in. I would use my house, then go to a farm and put all of those items in there. This is how you make most of your items, just by moving stuff around from one place to the next. -Now to talk about the crafting table that is at the top right of the screen. -Here is my table with all of the things I've been putting in. -I would use this to make stuff on the farm too, if I needed a cooking pot, and would pick up a new one from the crafting table. -Then, if I needed something more, I could just go back to the crafting table and add more ingredients. -This is how you can do most of your crafting and recipes on your farm. Once you do a lot of it, you start becoming very good at it. This is how crafting items go from starting items to really useful items. -Now that I have a crafting table and items in there, I start trying to put them together. -Here's what it looks like. -Here I am putting in barrels and barrels of things I've already bought from towns. -Then, if I need something, I can grab it from the crafting table and put in the spot that I need it. -After that I put in a barrel for my water well. -Here it is, my farm. -All of the items that you get here you can put anything on, but I would just do all of these with something like the crafting table. You could put in a kitchen or even a dining room or whatever -======================================== SAMPLE 421 ======================================== -A very good day today.

I wrote this post more out of an attempt to inspire the writing world to find a solution for the problem of "writing by hand" versus "writing on a computer." This isn't going to be a long-winded, one-hundred and ten-page rant about why "write by hand" isn't the best tool for just about everybody, like most writers are. This post is just something that I thought would be interesting to people, to try to show that you don't necessarily have have to give up something to give your writing an increased value. - -If you're looking at this blog post as more of a sort of "Why do you still believe in writing by hand, anyway?" then please read on. - -The simple answer to this question is that, for me, there is no quick or simple answer for any of this, just as there's no quick answer for everything. I'd honestly be happy with writing on just about any writing platform (including electronic ones; in fact, writing on a computer is kind of a bonus for me when I write on a computer) but for me a large part of this comes from my need to be involved in the writing process. When I sit down to write I find myself not only not sitting with a blank page, but also not really caring about what would happen to my story if I never wrote it down, because I don't know. This isn't just something that I have discovered through practice — I've actually found myself not even really caring about what happens to my story at all after I've finished it if I don't finish it. Sometimes I feel like I need to sit and think about what I'm writing, and that feeling of self-concern comes from wanting to know what's going to happen to my story. - -I've found that my lack of concern about my story's development because I am in the situation of letting the story happen to me in pieces, each of which I will have to sort myself for as it comes along. In a way I don't even have to sit down and write, I just go with it and let whatever happens to me unfold with me. I do have to sit down and think about what I'm writing and how it fits into a bigger whole of things, and that's something that's difficult for me. I write fast, the stories that I write are short, and my stories are full of details. I find I have to slow down when my story will take forever (or is just boring), because I don't know what's going to happen and I don't have enough knowledge to predict my story's development. I don't have enough time to plan for what's going to happen with everything. - -When I'm in the situation where I have a story that I've spent a lot of time thinking about, writing, and planning out, I'm in a situation where I trust myself and my writing ability to deliver a story that can be enjoyed by other people. When I give myself this license to let something come to me because I feel as if the idea I had a while ago is interesting enough to tell other people about, then it turns out to actually be kind of interesting for me as well after I finish it. (For more on this, see "Letting Something Come to Me.") - -The idea of writing by hand comes from the fact that I really don't have that much control over my writing or the way the story is going to develop. I don't know how it's going to end, and I'm not doing research to figure it out or figuring things out by feel or trying to "see" how things will turn out after I've had time to sit down and think about it. I can only use the experience I have of sitting down with a blank sheet of paper to give me ideas for my writing, which I then use to figure out how the story will progress before I end up with writing that has a good chance of being enjoyable for people to read. I'm still learning how to write by hand though, so some things -======================================== SAMPLE 423 ======================================== -What it does: - -This mod adds a single-storey building near the westmost tip of The Rift, just south of the waterfall, with a small courtyard. Inside the building will be an empty shop; inside it will be an NPC who is going to sell the main quest ingredients. If you're playing another quest mod this is NOT the place you are looking for, but it might be useful for other people. It's got a working fireplace, too, just in case it gets too cold (with a few modifications). - - -This mod doesn't require you to use a quest, it's meant to be a place to sell some stuff and perhaps get your inventory cleared. At this point only the vanilla ingredients for the quest have been added (though more are planned) and the NPC is in a fairly empty way. For now, I'm just showing the shop layout. You will see items stored here, but they will not be loaded by the game if they are NOT in the house. - - -This mod can be used for a lot of things, but probably the best use is simply for your own home if you're going through the rift and want a little place to store any items that you bring back with you. Or, when you're doing a quest in one of the houses, it will be great for that, because you can have your home there AND you can sell stuff from your main house just down the road. The house is in exactly the same spot and can safely be replaced by any mod of any kind, with or without a quest attached. If the house gets too full, you can move a couple of containers out and add some more stuff that goes along with it. - - -Note that the NPCs are there for a while. I really doubt you'll see them in the shop after you've bought anything, unless you move some stuff from your main house back into your home on the west side of town. - - -I'd recommend using this mod with your quest mods just to do some extra stuff for the quest, but if you just want to sell stuff you can do that as well; this is meant to be a temporary place for sale, so all you have to do is get your quest done, walk over here, set it to go open at night and everything will be fine. - - -Requirements: - ---This mod requires Dawnguard, Hearthfire, Dragonborn and the latest version of Skyrim. - - ---This mod requires you to go to the interior of The Rift and activate it. - - ---This mod requires you to have an empty storage chest on the ground floor of your home, somewhere near the alchemy and enchanting display. You may skip the alchemy and enchanting display if you wish. - - -What will you see when you activate the shack?: - -Inside the shack there will be a simple but useful shop with one merchant offering basic items. The shop owner will not make any conversation, so don't try to get too close by asking questions like "I'm thinking of taking up brewing in the future... does anyone know somewhere good for me to start?". To the right will be an empty counter with an empty inventory. On the left, in a small enclosed room, will be a table, with stacks of empty bottles. It's just for decoration, of course, and doesn't carry any items. To the right will be an empty bookcase with three random books in it, one of which is an enchanter book. Inside them will be a couple of bottles of a liquid called "potion of clarity", which when used on the NPC "Gale," will clear all of his negative, negative effects while granting him a permanent amount of health. I also added the potion to a safe location (in the basement) after I realized that the NPC didn't have a proper healing shrine near his home. - - -Also, as a side note, the NPC "Gale" has his own quest, and his quest starts at the exact same place as yours. He is a member of the Dawnguard and has been tasked to take you over to The Rift to find one of the "found souls" before the Dawnguard has a chance to come and take them from you. You will also be working hard against some other Dawnguard members too, who may offer to escort you or even kill you if you don't find the final soul before the Dawnguard. I suggest you kill those two members as well because they both get stuck on the roof and can't leave. - - -Installation: - -Copy the contents of the downloaded archive to your Skyrim data location. - - -Uninstallation: - -Delete the contents of the downloaded archive from your Skyrim data location. - - -Notes: - --I'm not sure that the location you're using is compatible with this mod. I'm putting a version of the shack that doesn't have the fireplace inside, so if you want to be able to use the fireplace you'll be better off using this mod.

You can hear Coco's dream-filled message on the song, 'Here We Go Again,' and it's also in the movie. When you meet Carlos and his friends they are really living their dreams too. This dream you've been living was a lie until you learned there's another world out there as Coco tells you about. The film will be rated PG and feature characters of varying ages and genders," explained the company on the blog they released when the teaser was released. - -The new teaser trailer for Coco was also teased in the same video promoting the new teaser at Comic-Con. - -Pixar's Coco will be followed by Coco 2 on Oct. 17, Coco 3 on Dec. 20, and Coco 4 on Jan. 16, 2019.

It's just the latest in a series of new Dumbo trailer clips we've seen since Netflix first announced earlier this year it would be distributing the film, which begins a limited theatrical release on March 31 in the United States. - -Also in Netflix's "Dumbo" trailer: a big-hearted and playful dance number from the film's song "Big Song," and a new song from composer Tim Rice; the new and old songs "I'm Dumbo, You're Dumbo, We're Dumbo," "I Dream of Jungle," "I'm in Dumbo," and "This is Dumbo" (all by Rice). - -Dumbo, of course, is the magical elephant who flies as if he's on a string. The Disney classic — originally published in 1941 and first released in 1932 as "Alice in Wonderland" — went on to earn nine major Oscar nominations, including one for its songs.<|endoftext|>The latest data on job creation comes from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), which provides real-time data by state.

There can be no meaningful peace with Iran without resolving these issues. - -Yet, at the UN General Assembly, Israel made the bold and seemingly dangerous assertion that it will not recognize Iran as a nuclear state. In doing so it was attempting to isolate and sanction Iran, both diplomatically and politically, to prevent it from obtaining enough enriched uranium to produce a nuclear weapon. The US Congress responded to the US threat of economic sanctions by rejecting the Obama administration's request for additional funds for such military action. For Israel, the threat of a military strike by the US, and even Israel's strong political allies in the US Congress, is a clear sign that no one side has the upper hand in the crisis. - -On September 28, after the Iranian deal was announced, Israel's Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon declared that, regardless of how the UN vote goes, Israel will oppose Iran's membership in the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). - -The Iran deal was announced on July 14, 2014, more than one year before the Israeli announcement. So what purpose, if any, did Ya'alon's declaration serve? At the time, Israel had previously opposed the Iran deal, in part because of the IAEA inspection of military sites that had been established under the 1994 Additional Protocol. Since then, Iran has significantly ramped up its nuclear activities, yet Iran remains a target for international sanctions from the United States and Iran. - -Ya'alon's statement was further proof that the Israeli government is concerned about Iran's security, not merely security of Israeli citizens—in other words, that Israel is unwilling to accept any deal that would give Tehran a nuclear weapon. - -For Israel, the idea of Iran developing a nuclear weapon has become a defining issue. In recent weeks it has been publicly stated that: The Islamic Republic is building a secret uranium enrichment facility of its own to continue enriching uranium for use in nuclear weapons. Israel has also been extremely outspoken in its insistence that the IAEA should have immediate access to Tehran's military sites. - -The IAEA is supposed to have access to Iran's military sites upon notification by the IAEA or on the basis of a request by a member of the IAEA board of governors. Yet in response to Israel's threat, on September 25, 2014, the IAEA announced that there had been no request from Israel. The IAEA says this is because the agency's director general, Yukiya Amano, "did not wish to provide the additional information that the Israeli Defence Forces had requested." - -The IAEA's official press release does not acknowledge that Israel has a military interest in preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. The press release also does not mention Israel's position that Iran's military facilities have no military value and have no nuclear material stored therein. - -Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said: "This deal will enable Iran to become a nuclear threshold state that has unlimited ability to rapidly build and deliver a nuclear weapon." He and other Israeli officials have made other statements claiming that Iran's leaders are bent on acquiring nuclear weapons to help shore up Assad's Assad regime. - -For Israel, the "threat" to destroy Iran's leadership in the name of national security, which is the rationale presented by Ya'alon's statement, is absurd. - -The United Nations Security Council will review the nuclear deal next week. Israel's government is likely to block the passage of any resolution that would impose sanctions on Iran over the Iranian nuclear deal. - -The US-led economic sanctions against Iran, including that on shipping companies, are a major obstacle to any deal between Iran and the P5+1, whose goal is to stop Iran from enriching uranium for a nuclear weapon. The economic sanctions provide the principal leverage over Iran, enabling the US-led international sanctions regime, supported by Europe and Canada, to pressure Iran to limit its nuclear activity. - -As a member of the Security Council, the United States could potentially play a role in setting up a new mechanism involving the countries of the world to prevent Iran from gaining a nuclear weapon. In the meantime, the EU and Canada can continue to sanction shipping to Iran, which has been a major source of funding for the Iranian regime, while the US remains one of the largest providers of oil to Iran's petrochemical industry. - -But it is the notion of military options that should trouble the international community. If Israel's warnings about Iran's nuclear program really are true, why would Israel not be able to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon? - -The Obama administration's diplomatic response to Israel's threat of military action has been to encourage it to accept the terms of the Iran deal, including the limitation of Iran's nuclear program.

Maggie Hassan over the law. A decision is expected in the case as early as Oct. 6. - -Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence counsel Kristen Clarke criticized the federal judge's decision today in a statement sent to Guns.com. - -"The Second Amendment is the only amendment under the Constitution that actually protects our fundamental right to keep and bear arms. The Department of Justice should be enforcing these laws," the statement read. - -Clarke also called the National Rifle Association's argument "patently frivolous." She said: "This is a classic case of the NRA fighting against their own record. They have long been against any effort to keep guns out of the hands of felons and the mentally ill and now they're trying to fight against efforts to keep guns out of the hands of voters." - -A number of legal scholars, organizations, and individuals, though, applauded the judge's ruling. - -Dan Stein, president of the pro-permit gun rights group Third Way Education Fund, called Friday's order a "huge victory" for the Second Amendment. - -"By blocking the most extreme provisions of this law, the judge ensured the protections for the general public, including voters, the rights of the elderly and voters, and the right to participate in elections without being subject to the threat of intimidation at the polls," Stein said in a statement. "This case demonstrates how the Second Amendment doesn't only protect individual rights, it also ensures that the government cannot prevent the public from exercising its own fundamental rights or basic political participation in the electoral process." - -And David Kopel, vice president of the Independence Institute in Denver who has been active on the issue of gun rights, said, "With the ruling, we move one step closer to ensuring that the rights provided by the Second Amendment do not become a mere fiction," - -Hassan said this evening, "This is another victory for my office in our effort to ensure voters feel safe when they exercise their constitutional right to vote." - -Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence attorney Stephanie Schriock praised the judge's ruling as another important step in advancing her client's case. - -"Judge Illston's decision to block the voter ID law is the latest in a series of rulings by judges across the country that the Department of Justice's attempt to enforce the voter ID law is unconstitutional on its face," she said. "Today's ruling is a welcome development in this fight to safeguard voters from intimidation." - - -This story originally appeared on Guns.com<|endoftext|>As promised the second of our two-part conversation with David Lynch was a lengthy and deep one. So here are the main points about David Lynch the actor, the director, and his influences. - -On working for David Lynch: - -"I was on a shoot for a while. That was really cool, because the whole thing with this shoot was that it's a very big dream coming true, so I got to work with David on it. This was my first major directorial gig. So I got to work with a director that I just knew that people would like and appreciate and have a very deep understanding of. And also, this was sort of a very personal thing for him, because he's been wanting to do this very thing. The idea that it would come to life in a kind of wonderful way, you know? That was, I think, what was interesting. I don't really know his motivation, but it was an opportunity for him to kind of play it out. - -On shooting the sequence that was originally titled "The Little Prince": - -"Well, it was actually called "The Little Prince." You know, because it's a little prince that's getting sucked into a hole in space. But he ended up going down the rabbit hole, and so I had to figure out a way to put the words down. But then when we did that the director of photography said, 'Look, David, would you ever consider taking this out? That's just too long-winded, you know? ' And I was like, "No! This is great! You don't care about me!" - -On the idea of a surreal episode: - -"I wanted to do a weird episode, because I hadn't quite figured out yet who I was in this world and what I really wanted to do with it, and I wanted to really take what I had done so far and push it and break it apart, just to see what I could build. Because -======================================== SAMPLE 428 ======================================== -The first thing to be said is that this book is so incredibly, mind-blowing fun to read. And I mean that, I mean that in the sense that, yes, the author has made a bunch of people go "Oooh" in a very specific way. It all goes back to that first bit about not knowing where to start when asked to describe the book. I could go on and on. But, we'll get there.The second thing is that I'm very interested in the concept, what some folks refer to as "The Golden Age", or what some folks refer to as the time of books or the time of reading as a cultural activity, even more so than I'm interested in how much of it is real. Because again, it's interesting to me to know how some people would react to fictional versions of events, or even real fictional ones. And so in that sense, I find it intriguing to know how people would think about some of this stuff. And it's interesting to me too because I have some opinions, and it wouldn't be an entirely accurate observation to say, "This is how it would be like to be in our time," without knowing how people would behave if they were really in our time.In this way, it's somewhat a bit like playing a role-playing game. (And yes, even if some people like to make that comparison, it does have implications that we're trying to avoid.) Because playing a role-playing game, you're in a world, but you don't necessarily get to pick what happens, because the GM will decide what happens. In the same way, someone could play a fictional game in which they are a character and then go, and they'll probably decide what the character does, and it's up for interpretation by the reader, so I'm not quite sure how it should work, I guess.But, I mean, that's the thing. It's a fun question to ask, because there's going to be people in our time, who probably wouldn't like it if the author of this book just left it at the first page and took her readers on a very fun ride. It's a fun question to ask.And, I mean, you know that first page when she says:So, we have a story about a time in which there was a huge explosion at an ancient cathedral, which is in London. And we have a character named Sophie whose husband and two children are killed in that explosion, and she's basically, basically a basket-case by the end of the second book. The character's name is Lark. And her family has been living in a very large mansion, that used to be the London Basilica, but is now one of London's top landmarks, because it survived the Blitz and still has all kinds of architectural secrets and things, and it's full of historical treasures. Lark is very well-off and educated, and really is very much part of the upper class. She's not a poor person, but she's not very rich either, and it's interesting that she can afford to buy the most expensive cars in London.But her real problem is what she wants, not what everybody wants for the common good. What she wants is that the cathedral building should go back in time, so that the people who were killed there will be in a better position. And she sees this as a kind of historical injustice, because her brother-in-law died and her father was dead, but her husband was alive, and he was still alive. And the reason that he died was because he was a thief, and he was a criminal, and he had killed his wife in cold blood. But she doesn't see that, and she tries to convince the people of the time that this is a moral issue. And, I think that's exactly the way that it feels. It feels like a moral issue, and she's trying to correct wrongs.And, she ends up not making a lot of friends. And, to a certain extent, she also sees it as a personal conflict, just that she has her priorities at odds with what other people need. So, there's a very interesting conflict between what we like to see as personal and what we call for. And that conflict also carries over into the conflict between what Lark wants and how she wants it to be.But it's interesting because in a very interesting way, you know, you can start to see a lot that isn't strictly historical or true to nature, that isn't strictly true, that it's interesting. In that way, it's like a literary novel, and we can be influenced by what people are saying and how they're saying it, and we can put something in our own time, and there's some truth to it that's not really true, but we like to see it as a kind of history or a historical fact or what has happened.And I'm not really even talking about it as historical. It's, sort of -======================================== SAMPLE 429 ======================================== -The official website for the upcoming TV anime adaptation of Yuki Saei and Ryoichi Suzuki 's Girls und Panzer manga revealed on Monday that it will begin airing in Japan on TBS, Tokyo MX , and BS11 on April 2. - -The anime's staff also revealed the anime's main visual for the first time on Tuesday, along with the anime's theme song "Guren no Yumiya."

Together with her crew, and in an effort to build relationships with the other girls, she begins to understand the "other side" of the game. - -Tada makes her tankery debut during a match against her school's rival Nihon Gakuen Girls High School. However, Tada is soon shocked by the sudden appearance of the "Red Dragon," a gigantic, tank-like alien, that aims to destroy Gakuen and the girls. - -The anime will feature the song "Guren no Yumiya," performed by Suzumiya Haruhi ( Nagaru Tanigawa in Love Hina ) and featuring the main voice cast from the series: Yumi Asano as Tada, Maaya Uchida as Miho Nishizumi, Mikako Komatsu as Aqours, and Kana Hanazawa as Akari Nishiwaki.

The Republican candidates' rhetoric sounds so much like the rhetoric used by the radical Right that it's hard to tell where the line is. On the Right, that line is hard to discern because the language used is so far removed from reality that any person with a modicum of political science knowledge can tell there's a big difference between how the Right sounds and how the Right moves. - -Just as the radical-Right uses phrases like "national identity," "ethno-state," "white identity," "anti-Western," "pro-white," "traditionalism," "culture," "family," "country," "patriot," and "Christian moral values," the conservative Right seems to be using a similar set of words. In fact, if you look in certain corners of the conservative movement, you may catch a whiff of the radical Right's rhetoric when you encounter the phrases "culture of life" and "natural law." - -It's time to take a closer look. Just a quick look shows that there are real differences between what conservatives say and what extremists on the Right mean. Here are four examples of what conservative people actually say, versus what the radical Right thinks they actually say. -======================================== SAMPLE 430 ======================================== -What would be a good time when we would see a major new release from the Linux Mint developer team? There are a thousand or so things, but they all depend on our opinion. Our community always gives us suggestions when it comes to new features that we want to have in our distro, and we are always interested. One thing, however, is certain – it is always time for a new release. - -At the moment we have just one beta release that you can find on our website, which comes with Linux Mint 18 "Saraha", a long awaited release that will be announced on April 10 this year. - -We've got our hands dirty testing it out for a while now and we think that it's one of the best new versions we have ever had the pleasure to see. And it is not to be missed! - -For the next couple of weeks we are going to be discussing about the new features in Linux Mint 18 which, as always, don't require a release candidate. - -First of all there is a brand new, elegant new user interface that the developers have been working on for a while now, which they call the Mint desktop. It might have looked familiar to those used to Ubuntu, because the look and function is close to that of the Ubuntu Unity. - -The new, elegant interface includes an improved dock, which is very convenient to work in and is pretty easy and seamless to use. The dock has icons for most of your applications, folders and shortcuts that you commonly use often. There is also a settings menu, a search field and a fullscreen panel, which you can always switch to with a keybind. The menu also shows the menu items you may want to use. - -The new look and feel is not just a UI update, it also helps with performance, as we can notice the difference it makes on the desktop: - -As you can see, the system stays stable and performs well, which is a big step for the overall user experience. - -It's not just about aesthetics, though. We have seen some improvements to the Mint login screen, the notifications area of the system and the boot process. Those improvements will probably be the most talked about ones. - -Login Screen - -As we told you just last month, you can now choose whether to log in with your profile, your display name or your user name. It's better to set it that way, because the profile name is now saved when you log in and can be easily used at any time for future logins. - -It's also possible to use a display name whenever you log in, if you prefer, but be aware that if you do so you won't be able to save it in a profile anymore. It just won't be accessible. We don't like it that way and the system is easier to use without it. - -The user interface is easier to read and easier to use in general. It is much smoother and easier to navigate over, too. - -Notifications Area - -The notifications area allows you to see which app or app that is responsible for a certain action. For example, the browser has a hamburger button that you can find there when an email arrives. The interface is very easy to use when you are reading your email and want to jump back or search for other emails. - -A new way to search for emails would be through the toolbar, so it doesn't matter which email was sent by which app. The icons are very readable and look great, too. - -Boot - -When booting into Linux Mint 18 we have found that the system boots faster than we expected it to. We had some problems with the older versions that took longer to load into the first post-Mint boot, but those problems are over. The system simply boots more smoothly in Mint 18, and we haven't experienced any significant problems. - -There is even a new way to restart your computer and it's better than it was with other similar systems because the system won't ask you anymore for your password, even through graphical login. We have noticed a little more stability in Linux Mint 18, too. - -Overall Impression - -What did we think of the Mint 18 release? We felt that the new user interface is a very beautiful and elegant one that you won't find with other distros. It is the perfect way to navigate around and is very easy to use. In addition, it makes the user experience much more pleasant even when doing tasks like searching the internet! - -Now, if we take a step back and look at the release itself, the main changes are mostly under the hood. We have been very pleased with the stability of the distribution, and also with the improved performance. We think Linux Mint has finally found its own flavor of stability and is very, very usable, for the regular user. - -We are looking forward to testing the final release and will be reporting on its release as soon as it's ready. You can keep track of the development -======================================== SAMPLE 431 ======================================== -Citing "concerns about the safety" of the facility, the city's top transportation and infrastructure supervisor and the City Council took no action against the project, which has been under review in this area for years. As part of Wednesday's review, the City Council sent letters to residents of four homes on Biddell Street that will be inundated by the elevated roadway. - -As part of an ongoing project to build a new road under the Biddell Street overpass, the city is going to move flood risk assessment from the Department of Public Development to the Waterfront Development Authority. - -It's part of a new development plan presented by the city this month, which includes "waterfront facilities, amenities and a high-quality pedestrian and bicycle trail." The City Council adopted the master plan in June. - -There are about 11,000 residents who live within a block of Biddell Street, along with a few hundred businesses and restaurants. For the city to move on the project, it would have to find a permanent residence for its "high-cost flood hazard assessment" staff for the next 20 years in the office that now handles flood risk assessment for the city. That's a long time with no end in sight. - -Last week, the Planning Commission endorsed the master plan for the Biddell Bridge. City Manager Harry Black told the commission the project was too big a project to get through the planning process without a "seminar." - -"I don't know how much the new staff can do in the time that they have," Black said. "We want them to be working with us throughout the planning process. … We want to make sure we have a clear understanding of the full scope of what this will mean." - -Black also talked about concerns with the new city manager "not being focused on the waterfront and infrastructure" before the city commission's decision on the master plan for the Biddell Bridge project. - -In his letter, Councilman James Gray called for the project to move ahead as the city looks to expand its role in infrastructure development for the waterfront. - -"Given the growing concern about the current status, I have requested that the City Council review, and perhaps take further action, when the project moves to the Waterfront Development Authority," he wrote. - -Meanwhile, the Planning Commission has issued a notice of its intention to continue to review the project. - -The City Council has yet to adopt a resolution on the proposal.<|endoftext|>The idea of a full moon and the effects it has on the economy and the stock market may seem at odds with each other. But a new research review reveals that as the full moon rises each day, people are more likely to buy. - -In a paper published in the Journal of Business and Psychology, researchers set out to determine if people were willing to pay more to purchase a moonless Friday, which would have been the day before the lunar period occurred. However, a full moon is not necessary to trigger the effect, and most studies have already shown it occurs when the moon is above the horizon. - -The analysis revealed that those who believed there to be moonlight at their home on a moonless day were 3.1 percentage points more likely to purchase than those who thought there were none to begin with. "If you want to increase sales during sales peak time, or at the end of the sale period, the moon will bring out your best sales pitch," the researchers wrote: - -People are more willing to purchase if they believe there is moonlight, even when it is cloudy and there is the risk of the effect. This effect is driven not by price or sales of those items that are sold during the pre-lunar pre-sale or sale periods, but rather by purchases of sales-priced merchandise before or during the lunar period. We find the lunar effect occurs more frequently on the night of a full moon, or higher in the sky. - -Although the authors note that the full moon effect "may be a psychological placebo" in part, they found it more than once over many studies. On at least two other occasions, when the full moon was below the horizon or obscured by clouds, the effect was not visible at all and didn't appear to have a monetary effect on sales.<|endoftext|>In today's news roundup, The New York Times, CNN and NPR are all reporting on a bombshell report, and the New York Times has published part of it. The report is titled "Donald Trump's Foundation Might Have Breaking Law: Illegal Foreign Donations" and provides a number of damning insights into the history of the Donald J. Trump Foundation. - -The piece also includes several revelations about Trump's charitable foundation. As we've written extensively about before, Trump's foundation solicited a huge number of contributions from foreign nationals in order to curry favor with his staff and the people he worked with, according to this report. - -At the time, the foundation reported only about $1 million in revenue from foreign entities; however, IRS documents obtained -======================================== SAMPLE 432 ======================================== -As an active-duty service member, you're free to get an abortion. But that doesn't mean you can do so without a lot of paperwork — and a lot of questions. - -Interested in ? Add as an interest to stay up to date on the latest news, video, and analysis from ABC News. Add Interest - -The Army's abortion policy requires a medical waiver from the Secretary of the Army in order for women who've been deployed for a period of at least 6 months to terminate a pregnancy or seek a medical deferral. Medical exams, a background check and a request in writing from a female service member's commander are necessary for approval. - -The waiver is meant to protect the woman, and not to "fraudulently circumvent the policy," said Capt. Marissa Pazzon, a spokeswoman for the base public affairs office, adding that it's "not required, recommended nor accepted by [the] administration." - -The policy's "exceptions exist for situations of life endangerment, where a woman has to be hospitalized to receive care, and where the unborn child may be a danger to her or others or where a pregnancy poses an unacceptable health risk." - -Women who seek a medical deferral are only permitted to get one of three abortions: a non-emergency second-trimester abortion, a surgical abortions performed during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy following a "medically justified and documented fetal anomaly. This exception is specifically tied to life endangerment and not abortion due to threats of domestic violence," the policy says. - -The policy also permits female enlistees to get a waiver if they "are undergoing a process for separation from service under the Uniform Code of Military Justice." - -The Defense Department will not issue a medical waiver for female service members who've been deployed at least 30 days, according to Pentagon spokesman Jeff Davis. - -"There are many factors that go into making determinations on medical conditions and waivers... It is not uncommon... [for] an application to come in," he said Thursday. - -The Defense Department does not keep statistics on how many women receive waivers or whether the Army is the only branch that allows them. - -ABC News learned of the policy and the specific requirements after multiple women shared their stories with the Military Times. - -One woman said she became pregnant after she got married, and that she had a difficult time getting a waiver or seeing a doctor. - -"I tried a few times, but there was nothing I could do," said the woman, who asked ABC News to remain anonymous. - -When she began training for a deployment in November 2016, she had difficulty passing routine physicals. She said she called her unit's medical office for a waiver. - -"I remember the lady on the phone looked at me incredulously and said 'are you stupid?'" she said. - -She never received a waiver. Another woman told the Military Times she was forced to take pregnancy tests during a deployment. - -"When I did, I had to get my blood work done for me and sign an agreement saying, 'I understand that I will not discuss my condition with anyone, nor will I show them any of my medical material,'" she said. - -She was diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome, which has symptoms that include weight gain, acne and irregular periods. A medical team, including a gynecologist, diagnosed polycystic ovarian syndrome, the woman said. - -In a report that she signed during a medical test, the woman noted her doctor had recommended terminating her pregnancy. - -"He was very upset about this pregnancy that was very close to the delivery date," the woman said. "He said it would be best for me to try to manage this and help the pregnancy naturally, as much as possible." - -A third woman said she was not able to get a medical medical deferral for her deployment to Germany. She had a "lapse in her medication," and had developed "a really bad infection after the soldier we were going to be serving with in Germany got sick" and died, she said. - -"I really had to fight for the waiver," the woman said. "I got a waiver for two months out of six months. I got a medical deferral and it was very difficult. I was in constant stress that it wasn't possible, but I was able to fight for it." - -Despite her efforts, her pregnancy was still terminated. She received her discharge because "it didn't work out," she said. - -The Army policy also requires women to sign a document acknowledging their pregnancy while deployed. - -A woman told the Military Times she'd had three abortions during her military service — each while deployed in a different state. - -"I was really upset that my doctor couldn't do anything because we were in a different state and if he would've done something I would've been discharged.

Today's blog post will try to combine the best of these works into one great video game…or rather, a video game that combines the best of them. - -For the game, we wanted to create a story that's accessible to all and one that's entertaining and engaging to most. While it will be a long time until we can see this game in person, and not all aspects will be polished enough until release, there's a lot in place already. - -Story - -The narrative of The Curse of Monkey Island is based around a group of misfit pirates that fall in love. After a couple years of wandering around the world in their small boat, the three main characters get a ship at the same port. The four of them have their lives become more exciting, each with their unique skills and personalities. As the years go by, many different parts of the story appear. The tale of their relationship, their adventure and ultimately their downfall also play a part in the story, providing more context for what's going on. - -We first met the protagonists of the story after they had already taken off their masks, as they would return as pirates on countless occasions until they were eventually banished. They would become the faces of the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and their adventures were a joy to watch. The narrative was often a fantastic mix of comedy, comedy, adventure and action. The humor often came on the backs of a great cast of voice actors, some of whom, such as Tim Curry, have since gone, and some of whom, such as Kevin Conroy, still to this day can be found in movies or video games. - -However, with the release of Pirates of the Caribbean 3, the series had come off of it's peak status, and people wanted its characters back. We'd had a good bit of talk with some of the writers from the game on what they wanted to do with the characters, and the characters we wanted to see. It seemed all was well, the team was excited with it's development and then we got the bad news that it was over. - -The Curse of Monkey Island features the main characters as a group of misfits trying to escape the evil Monkey King's forces. It is set in 1769 in the Bahamas in the New World, and the main cast (and the game) are set in the village of the Lost Boys. A lot is going on here with this plot line, and each chapter of the tale is divided into acts, such that the story unfolds in sequence. As we start to see more of the story unfold, these acts will become more and more intertwined as the tale unfolds. - -The Curse of Monkey Island is a world with an overworld, which serves no purpose other than navigation for the game for the most part. While the overworld is useful, there's a lot of exploration and mystery that can be seen through it. The story takes place on two island (at least for the short times they're on screen), which the main characters travel to and back from quite often. When they arrive, the main character's friends, or their friends of the opposite gender, often ask if they should take off their masks for the day. - -There is a great sense of fun inherent in having your friends do this with you. You know you're going to get an awesome reaction when you see it, because you never know if those good willed people in your life can relate. One of your friends can have been the victim of a mugger and someone whose house is currently on fire can call you to tell you that her dog's dead. - -The adventure is set in the past and the present of every act. Each act is played out in three different time periods, though they are very likely only seen in the past. Each time period is more of a world in itself as the action takes place on it's own island, and the main characters are seen interacting with it for the first time: the time travel is actually quite subtle at this point. The island has its own set of unique puzzles and puzzles that will challenge you in different ways. - -For example, there is a small, yet challenging room that requires a puzzle involving the use of a number to remove a rock, from which comes a small piece of wood. Once placed, a number appears and must be added to the puzzle. There's a simple logic problem that requires someone to place a number into a box before it is taken out, but it also requires you to look through a small hole. It's a puzzle that requires a slight adjustment of logic, but it also requires your thinking and your puzzle solving skills. This puzzle was definitely not for the faint of heart.

CBC's Sarah Ritchie reported this morning that the provincial government expects a similar number of jobs from the new carbon levy on all carbon emissions, including industrial polluters. - -The NDP ran on a platform that promised to get 300,000 people jobs under tax increases and reduced corporate taxes, but Wall said those numbers were a "misleading" lie, Ritchie reported. - -Wall said Thursday's report — from Environment Canada and the Canada Revenue Agency — confirms what his government has said all along, that the carbon levy would lead to at least 30,000 new jobs. - -Environment Canada projected the government could lose up to 50,000 jobs, due to the closure of some existing businesses, such as the Regina Freight Corridor. Ritchie reported that Environment Canada also estimated the province's direct GDP would decrease by up to $1.8 billion between 2017 and 2020. - -Wall said he wasn't at liberty to discuss details of the study with Ritchie until he was informed the report had been released. - -However, it appears the report was not produced to help the NDP sell its legislation, but to inform the legislature and public. Opposition parties have accused the government during question period of not presenting reliable numbers on job creation. NDP leader Cam Broten has claimed the government has released only one-third of the information it needs to defend its carbon tax. - -Wall said he was told by the report that he would need the government "to provide a better picture of the net job impacts of the carbon tax than it has provided up to now." - -In an emailed statement, Wall acknowledged the report was not produced to help sell the carbon tax, but to inform the legislature and the Saskatchewan public of the job impacts. - -"I understand that the findings in the report were developed in light of the current uncertainties surrounding the future costs and impacts as outlined in the government's pre-budget consultation paper. We will work to ensure that information on job impacts is presented in a more transparent and transparent manner in the weeks ahead," the statement read. - -During a question period session today, Broten acknowledged, "The estimates were not accurate." But he asked for input to support his claim that the government only has one-third of the information it needs to defend the carbon tax. - -"We don't know yet the number of people that will be employed or lost in the industry," Broten said. - -Asked to comment about the report, a government spokesperson said no additional estimates will be presented.<|endoftext|>A group of men with their faces painted black and wielding clubs have taken to the streets of Mexico City, setting the city's streets aflame. - -The rioting began at the end of last month as protesters tried to block an access point to Tlatelolco, the site of a controversial new highway. - -Local television footage showed rioters carrying hammers, baseball bats and bricks through the streets, and at least one person was seen being pelted with rocks. - -According to Mexico's Public Security Secretariat, the rioting reportedly began after "unidentified individuals" threw a petrol bomb at a police van. - -"I would like to clarify that there was not a single attack against private property," the Secretariat claimed. - -"Violence was not unleashed in the Tlatelolco area." - -Local police are said to have detained a number of protesters, and reportedly opened fire at one "man in a mask," resulting in the injury of one bystander. - -Violence has reportedly spread to other parts of Mexico City since the uprising.

The CPI is a monthly index of prices. On a monthly basis, the CPI is calculated by dividing the prices of many commodities (i.e., food, clothing, fuel, etc. and many other items) by the number of people in the U.S. The number of people is determined by the U.S. Census Bureau. - -The U.S. national average CPI is compiled from the CPI for the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the U.S. territories and Puerto Rico, and includes the average cost of a typical basket of foods and services. (For a description of the cost of a typical basket of goods and services, see "Buying the "average American" – the U.S. average cost of consumer goods and services," by S. Daniel Carter, Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.) - -According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the national average monthly CPI increased 0.2 percent in November from the same month a year ago and was up 0.9 percent from October. On a year-over-year basis, the national CPI increased 1 percent in November and was unchanged in October. At the national level, overall consumer spending remained at a moderate pace in November, rising 0.5 percent from the year-ago level and 0.3 percent from October. Growth was stronger for major spending groups. - -The core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, increased 1.9 percent in November from the same month last year and was the highest reading on record. The personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index for personal consumption expenditures grew 3.5 percent in November from the same month last year to its highest level since May 2008. The PCE increased 3.1 percent in October and was unchanged from a year earlier. The CPI for prices other than food and energy grew 2.1 percent in November from the previous month. These indices are based on a sample of prices paid by individuals, firms, and farm organizations. - -The CPI for all urban consumers rose 2.9 percent in November from the same month last year, exceeding the 2.3 percent rate of increase observed in October, though not as far behind as October. The overall consumer price index increased 3.1 percent in November from the same month last year. The CPI for all urban consumers was up 4.2 percent from a year earlier, and the retail industry index for personal consumption expenditures increased 7.3 percent from a year earlier. - -Consumer prices were 2 percent higher in November 2010 than in the same month of 2009. The year-over-year increase in the consumer price index came after two years of declining CPI levels. The year-over-year decrease in inflation was 3.2 percent in November from the same month in 2009. - -During 2007, 2008, and 2009, the CPI reached its historical high levels of 4 percent and 2.7 percent, respectively.

According to a new study published in the journalFood & Chemistry International, corn and soybeans contaminated by pesticide residues can be transformed into extremely potent, but non-toxic drugs, which have the ability to destroy cancer cells, protect against infections and improve the functioning of normal tissue, in just seven days, the BBC reported."These findings indicate that these two foods can be used as a model for developing novel new drugs," said study researcher Dr. Huda El-Ghobi, from the University of Chicago.The two drugs, called dithiothreitol and prochloraz, have the ability to be absorbed by the human body and cause the body's own enzymes to break them down to a chemical form that does not have the same effect. These molecules can be stored in the liver and used in an oral medicine application to inhibit the growth of various cancers, including those of the breast, prostate, pancreatic and liver, a study published in the journal, Food & Chemistry International, indicated."Dithiothreitol may also have an additional beneficial effect, which is that it can be converted to prochloraz using an enzyme, which means the body can then get rid of a toxic substance through excretion, thereby protecting normal tissues as well," said another study in the journal entitled, Advances in Food Science & Technology, that came to the same conclusion."Prochloraz is a very powerful chemical that has a powerful effect on many types of cancer cells and may help fight many types of infections, such as stomach ulcers and diarrhea," said another study published in the journal Food Research International."The study suggests that both these compounds may have a more significant potential role to add to the therapies that are already available in industry and in the clinic. We have seen that these small molecules can be made in large factories that are very efficient," said Dr. Nils E. Skjaerbaek from the department of pharmacology, University of Copenhagen.What makes this even more astonishing is that these chemicals have been known to have potential to fight cancer for over sixty years."There is currently no known therapy for cancer, and so far, there is only one drug that has been made so far that could also be transformed into a metabolite that would be useful for cancer treatment, which is indomethacin," explained Dr. Skjaerbaek.Some experts believe our growing fear and acceptance of food as a weapon against our most vital organ is leading to the next phase of the epidemic, which is where foods that contain powerful antibiotics and natural pesticides are used as weapon.While other chemicals may be used for pest control, these two, as well as the powerful herbicides and insecticides that cause them, are being pushed onto our crops in what is clearly a deliberate attempt to help the very industry that's destroying us.One major chemical compound that's now commonly found in these crops is neonicotinoid insecticides and herbicides, some of which have been banned in the UK for being a danger to our environment and food chain. However, the new study shows that "there is a trend in this direction to introduce new pesticides to food crops in countries like the United States, and this has to be called into question," said Skjaerbaek from the University of Copenhagen, one of the world's leading academic researchers in toxicology.Dr. Skjaerg said that despite this clear evidence to believe it's dangerous to be consuming foods that contain harmful compounds produced by pesticide pollution, we have been duped into buying these products and allowing them to invade our food chain. "People don't realize just how many pesticides they are consuming each and every single day," she said."If you have the right knowledge you can control your own diet to limit or remove as much pesticide contamination in your own food supply as possible, but unfortunately we don't have that now, and even more so due to the fact that we don't know what's being dumped in the food chain," she said.<|endoftext|>Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul join Chris Gardner and Jeff Conaway to play the ultimate game of "Who Let The Dogs Out?" in a game that'll put your favorite shows and movies under the microscope.<|endoftext|>You must enter the characters with black color that stand out from the other characters - -Message: * A friend wanted you to see this item from WRAL.com: http://wr.al/zf1 - -— State officials are releasing the names and ages of the 15 adults who committed suicide and were reported missing in Orange County last year. - -Investigators are also releasing statistics on how people who are missing from Orange County have been handled by law enforcement officers. - -Twenty-two people listed as missing from the county were found dead, and three others are still unaccounted for.

On September 6, 1949, on the eve of the release of his third film, The Quiet Man, McQueen managed to get Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Clark Gable, and Gary Cooper to fall for him at the premiere. - -The Great Escape was not only the final film released by the renowned director, director of Bullitt, and Oscar nominee, it was a surprise smash at the box office and its legacy is still felt today. Although it has now been over 50 years since the film first hit screens and McQueen has since become just another Hollywood star, he still has some of his fans who can't get enough of his talent. - -Steve McQueen always loved to perform in front of an audience. His first role in a feature film was in 1939 when he starred as a young con man in a comedy about a thief who is hired to rescue a rich lady. He was also featured in a few films during World War II, including Casablanca and The African Queen, which he also directed. His big break came in 1952 when his friend Sam Peckinpah recommended him to producer William Fox for a potential movie adaptation of the novel, The Man Without a Face, which would have starred the then young Christopher Reeves and co-starred Laurence Olivier. - -During production of The Great Escape, the main issue on the crew's mind was that McQueen had no experience in filmmaking. Peckinpah, however, knew that McQueen's ability to get through a film would make them all better actors. Fox told McQueen he would have an opportunity to star in The Great Escape. - -After The Great Escape, McQueen's movies became a bigger priority than any other. He never stopped working in movies for the rest of his life. In addition to his own movies, he also continued to perform for audiences at plays and festivals everywhere. - -While his fans may not be able to put their hands on him much anymore, Steve McQueen still has a lot of love for the films and movie stars that have come in his wake. The silent era wasn't all about glamor and acting. This era marked the beginnings of the Hollywood career of many legends like Marlene Dietrich, George Peppard, Jimmy Stewart, and Clark Gable.<|endoftext|>Mumbai: After the success of his book 'The Outsider', Ruchir Sharma is making the rounds across India to help young writers take their talent a stage beyond. - -On Sunday, while speaking in Mumbai, the author of "The Last Supper" and "The Last Temptation of Christ" gave an idea on how the community of writers can help them become "global superstars". He told the audience he sees himself as a teacher and that a writer should have a "fondness" for the community. "A lot of writers have left the community and there is no literature here," said Sharma, who has set up the Sushma Swaraj Literary Programme, that aims to ensure that young writers are given a platform. "If you are not writing, you are missing the opportunity for greatness." - -Sharma said there is a scarcity of literature in the country. "This is because most writers do not have the talent or inclination to explore new areas." However, he added that if they can write "in any language" then it will help them. "So, if I write in English, I will write in the language of our forefathers," said Sharma, who believes that writing in a language one knows is not a bad thing. "I cannot read Shakespeare in Malayalam, but I can write it," he said. - -Sharma spoke on the 'writing' theme. "Writing means doing something. No matter where you go, your writing will follow you." - -He then talked about the value of the novel. "What makes a novel good is a character, the plot, the ending, and of course, the dialogue," said the author. - -However, in a clear dig, Sharma said that as the country has become more global today, writers need to take better care of themselves. "Literary work is not only a profession, it is also a lifestyle," said Sharma. - -He added that writers should remember the value of books as well and that they are "a medium of education too". He advised new writers to create a "personal brand" by "writing in a language they speak, and writing an interesting story they feel proud of". - -He added that to encourage young writers to write, the books should inspire them. Sharma asked the audience how they feel about the quality of books being published, and said he is surprised at the difference in quality of books today compared to when he started writing. " -======================================== SAMPLE 440 ======================================== -The most important thing to remember about a game's opening minute is that time is running out. - -The goal in the fourth minute is to start the first real offense of the game. With three minutes left, the game is decided. The defense will get tired; the forwards will not. The offense will have to work extremely hard to keep up with fatigue. There will be a lot of pressure on the offense. We have so much at stake -- we can't give them a chance to play. - -I love games like this. The first half is a grind, but the second half is fun. The defense takes advantage of having the ball against the run of play. It gives the offense more time. The defense knows they have a huge advantage in this situation. The offensive players have to give a great effort. They all know that fatigue is a great weapon and how much time they have at the end of the half. - -That is the reason I love the final 15 minutes in the first quarter. You can see that all the energy and effort in the first quarter isn't getting them far enough. In the final 15 minutes, the defense makes a lot of tackles. The offense is finding open receivers. They don't take shots anymore. They don't put the clock down on the ball. They don't score two points on some meaningless field goal attempt. They play hard and play smart, and the game comes back their way. - -In the past 20 years, there have been great defenses that have struggled to generate any offense. But the offenses have always gotten it done in the final 15 minutes of the game. - -In 1985, the Miami Dolphins went to the Super Bowl having allowed 11.5 points to their opponents in the final 15 minutes. In 1988, the San Francisco 49ers made it to another Super Bowl after allowing 13.5 points in the final quarter. In 1987, the Washington Redskins went to the Super Bowl with 17.5 points allowed in the final 15 minutes. In both of those instances, the teams' coaches and players had an idea about how they could make the final minutes more productive. The Niners' coordinator at the time, Jim Mora, went ahead and tried it. - -In 1988, the Denver Broncos' defense, which was the best in the league, gave up nine points in the final minute, with all three points coming on a two-point conversion attempt. They were down four points with 10 minutes to go in the game. The offense, running well down the stretch, went for it on fourth down with 14 seconds left and failed. - -Mora was so confident that he tried it three times. - -If you're a head-coaching candidate today thinking about running something similar, you are smart as a whip. That is why it is so important that your defense and offense come in the same mindset and have the same mindset. - -This is not about changing an offense you don't like or make a trade-off you don't want to make. This is about putting together the entire team, from the quarterback on down, that will give you an opportunity to win the game. Make some adjustments. Be realistic. If it is in the end the right call, then do it! Run the ball and be aggressive, but do not be afraid to run if you have an opportunity to make a play down the stretch. If not, there are two ways to put together a winning team: You can put together one of those teams that give up 10 or so points in the final minute and play conservatively, or you can win on defense.<|endoftext|>In the latest example of how the public is being manipulated by the elite, the UK's most prestigious award-winning TV show has used its annual gala event to launch a program called 'Paedophiles and Perverts' in order to censor the real story. - -Channel 4's flagship Today programme – used by most of the world's media outlets for its top stories each day – did its part in this latest media manipulation and hyped the show with a press release from its marketing and communications department on Tuesday. - -The statement was headlined "Paedophiles and Perverted People: the truth about the truth of Paedophiles". It was a blatant attempt to downplay the real extent of sexual abuse and grooming of children by paedophiles in the U.K. – and the real perpetrators of the sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children. - -The programme, titled Paedophiles and Pervert Relationships, used footage from the award-winning documentary Childline, to show the dangers to young people as perpetrators groom and abuse children. The new reality for young people is that they can receive advice on how to protect themselves from predators, which is a step in the right direction. But despite this, the program was still unable to give the real truth because child protection agencies refuse to recognise that there are victims that can be spoken about, particularly as there was not enough time for the guests to properly -======================================== SAMPLE 441 ======================================== -The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com. - -The latest version of this topic can be found at Initialize Windows, Part 2. - -Initialization of the Windows Installer package is important for any computer whose system is to be installed, or for which an existing configuration has already been successfully established.

A report Sunday in the New York Times about the comedian, who's in the midst of a stand-up tour to support the premiere of his Netflix special, revealed that he had been accused of sexual harassment by multiple women in the past, including a woman who had a sexual encounter with him at a television writers dinner. The allegations came after The Times published an investigation into his behavior over the past three decades, including several incidents that involved women at work, and he apologized for the behavior. In a statement posted online, C.K. announced the cancellation of his tour, and he promised to speak out against harassment in the workplace. (C.K.'s statement also was posted on the website of another comedian, Hannibal Buress, who spoke out against harassment earlier in the week.) - -Now he's being sued for allegedly violating a confidentiality agreement he signed in 2013. According to the Daily Beast, attorney Jeffrey Herman filed a lawsuit on behalf of another comedian, Dana Min Goodman (which is being represented by Gloria Allred). In it, he alleges that C.K. did not disclose that he had paid himself as a producer of HBO's "Behind the Candelabra," which came after his stand-up show, "Horace and Pete." Herman also says C.K. "threatened his clients" and made "unwanted sexual advances" to many of them, including two whom he paid $3 million to appear in his film "I Love You, Daddy" (which C.K. denied making). (In 2013, C.K. told the Times that he and his wife, Dana, parted ways with the producer after two years of marriage, after he said he discovered an affair with a woman who was working on "Behind the Candelabra.") - -Herman says there were "two agreements that Mr. Louis C.K. violated. The first was a confidentiality agreement." He alleges that C.K. provided a false and misleading description of "Underage Girls" in the film to prevent Goodman from disclosing it to female cast and crew members. - -C.K's representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<|endoftext|>Bikepacking is a way to get away from the hustle, bustle and traffic of city living and enjoy the natural beauty of the Rockies.

If you're looking for one of the newer or better-known options (because, what's not to like about Raspberry Pi?) then perhaps this is the project for you! - -A new board called the PiTFT is launching tomorrow. This board provides you with the necessary input/output pins for controlling your TV or your stereo system, and the microcontroller is programmed with Javascript in all of the standard tools we're used to developing with and using in the Arduino community. In this tutorial, I'll show you how to set up your PiTFT and build a simple project inspired by the famous Star Trek episode, "Darmok", that shows how to program a GPIO device via Javascript. - -Hardware and Connections - -Let's begin the process by opening up our chosen IDE of choice (e.g. "EmulatorGadgets" or "Arduino IDE") and grabbing the PiTFT board (it is now just an empty board with the appropriate solder pads on it).

This is the simplest type, which is good for small solar installations. The next is a Class II PV panel, meaning that it features larger cells and can produce more electricity. A Class III PV panel is the ultimate goal, with a large (2M+) cells and the ability to produce enough power for even the most efficient solar installations. All of these variations of class can be done on a single module. - -Class II panels are easier to make, but it's not as cheap and easy to do a class III panel. - -So how do you make a Class I panel? - -In this article I'm going to show you how to make a Class I class II solar panel. This is a low power, high efficiency, single module, solar panel that you can use to charge your phone while also producing electricity for your home and your electric grid. - -The Module - -The first thing you need to do is to decide on the module size and your desired power output. You will see pictures of these options from multiple suppliers below, but there are 4 basic sizes to choose from; 1kW, 2kW, 3kW, and 4kW. The size of the module is a critical parameter for its production efficiency. It's important because large modules will require a lot of engineering effort to increase their efficiency. - -Size of Module - -1kW: The size of my Module - -2kW: The size my module is in - -3kW: The size my Module is in - -4kW: The size my Module is in - -When choosing a solar panel to use for your solar generation home system, keep this in mind. The smaller the module size the larger the solar panels they will need to be to generate enough power to charge a smartphone or battery. - -If you're using a Class I module, I can recommend SolarEdge – they are the makers of the popular SunEdison modules. SolarEdge uses a proprietary technique to increase their efficiency. They have found a combination of heat transfer and air flow to increase their output and lower their costs for solar modules. You can't really go wrong with SolarEdge and they are a popular choice for many homeowners. The main problem is the installation. - -Installation of Class I Solar Panels - -If you are using a 2kW module for your home solar power project, you will need to install additional wiring and install multiple solar panels in your home. - -The Installation is not as hard as it looks and will take you around 30% longer than a regular install. However, it is cheaper to do than a regular panel installation. I will show you a video of our installation process below. - -Using Class I panels, and installing on the roof or in your garage, the system can have a large solar panel array to generate electricity from sunny windows. - -The Problem with Class II and Class III Solar Panels - -Class II and Class III solar power systems will have higher panel efficiencies because of the larger sizes. However, these modules are more expensive – around $3 per watt. They can also be quite a bit heavier than Class 1, 3, and 4 modules. These modules aren't cheap, but you can always make them less expensive if need to. - -I chose a Class IV PV or PVP module to make my home solar power systems, but I don't recommend you choose an even bigger module if you're using 2kW or less. The cost of a class IV module could be a lot higher than 2kW if the manufacturer can keep the cost down. - -I will show you several different way to install single class I and II solar panels. They all have pros and cons. I'll show you a quick way to install class I and class 2 solar panels on a single roof and also show you how to install class 3 solar panels with a 2kW panel. - -These panels are smaller than the 3kW class I panels, but their efficiency is higher. As mentioned, it's also a lot heavier than Class 1 panels. If you're doing a lot more than solar panels, this is the type of system you will want to have. - -These solar modules are a great choice for your utility, your mobile home, or any type of small home. They also are very easy to install and use. It's like an easy to install energy backup in the garage. - -I'll also give you the option to install your solar system without adding any additional wiring to the home or garage. I'll also have you install the panels yourself, or just let me do it for you. - -How to make a Class I and II Solar Panel - -First things first if you are doing the home solar installation without adding any additional wired wiring, you can make -======================================== SAMPLE 443 ======================================== -The first step of the new series of "Unleashed" was a discussion about the role of women in the game industry. Today, I am discussing another topic: the impact of feminist gamers on game culture. - -The first step of the new series of "Unleashed" was a discussion about the role of women in the game industry. Today, I am discussing another topic: the impact of feminist gamers on game culture. This issue touches a lot of different aspects of game culture; not the least because the gaming community is composed of a whole bunch of different people, from many different backgrounds, with different social and economic statuses. - -On Twitter the first conversation of the topic started with an inquiry by a feminist, Kate Edwards, on the prevalence of sexism in the gaming community: - -There should also be an ongoing discussion regarding the presence (or lack thereof) of a diverse enough group of women in the gaming community. If they could come up with some kind of statistics that should be collected and published so that we can discuss them, that would be useful. - -I immediately went, I don't know, to look at some numbers, but I quickly learned of a major flaw in Edwards' method. When you have a set of numbers it's easy to try to extrapolate those numbers to the entire culture, assuming that every member of the entire culture shares the same values. It's very easy to forget that people come from different places in their lives and that their situation may not have the same characteristics as yours. As someone who grew up with both an only child and a divorced parent, this is really important to know. - -But that was not the end of Edwards' inquiries. Edwards then took this a little further, asking in another thread about the "toxic masculinity of the game industry". I started by offering all kinds of different ways that toxic masculinity could manifest in the gamer culture: - -I'm all for having a lot of discussions about this. But it can get quite exhausting when a woman in particular says that all men are like that. I mean, this is a conversation I was having with a friend of mine (about all men in the world!) and she said "You know, I'm so sick of this 'all men are toxic' stuff!". I thought it was pretty typical of her—she likes to use terms like 'all people' and 'all men' and I tried to get her to really think about what she was trying to say. She's also one of the few people I know that is not into gaming and that seems weird to me. I'm thinking about the differences between gaming culture and, like, a bunch of other interests where some people are 'all' into gaming and some are not. I'm not saying any of that to sound like I'm trying to be some sort of misogynist… But I am saying that people who are 'all' into gaming don't automatically fit the general definition of toxic. It's just like, I know a lot of gay people or ethnic minority people that are into sports (or movies or anything else) and the same could be said for gay or black or latino people who are into music. There's a difference between being into them all and then being totally toxic. - -The problem is that I was speaking to my friend not the general public and Edwards wasn't paying attention to anything outside of my friend's world. She didn't take into account what people might be going through or what other games they might enjoy. She wasn't thinking critically about a society that she did not have much experience in and didn't truly understand what being a gamer was all about. - -And now comes the big point: Edwards is not talking about everyone who plays games as a whole. I would love to have this wonderful discussion about the presence or absence of women in games as a whole (which is very difficult to do) but instead I get to waste my time answering someone who has clearly only a very small amount of experience in the gaming community, not to mention being extremely confused about the nature of toxic masculinity. - -This is why I want to focus on what Edwards did say when I asked about the impact of gamer culture on feminism: - -I feel like it's kind of an important thing for people to know that not all gamers are like that; I know there are some really amazing gamers out there and I'm a big fan of indie games, but there are some really toxic people out there as well (I don't really want to say which ones because I don't want to harass any of them in real life). If we would be talking about people who make games and why, we would focus a lot more on women in indie games when they're in games instead of the people who aren't even playing games enough to vote on games (or, honestly, the people who want to start games in the first place but don't have the skills and education to do so). - -I disagree strongly with the suggestion that we should focus on game -======================================== SAMPLE 444 ======================================== -A A - -The Oregon Senate Education Committee on Wednesday approved Gov. Kate Brown's proposal to spend $7.7 million annually to provide college scholarships to children of incarcerated men and women. The committee's action followed a hearing in the early morning hours. - -The proposal, which is likely to face a House floor vote by the end of the year, is sponsored by Sen. Jim Beall, D-Salem, and Sen. Jeanie Forrester, D-Portland. In a joint news release, Brown and Forrester called the measure to promote education for young people "an important step forward in the restoration of education to kids and adults who have been imprisoned after their release." - -The money would come from a $9,200,000 grant the Oregon state Legislature created in 2014 for the Oregon Higher Education Coordinating Board. - -As with many of Brown's education proposals, the timing could not be better for supporters. The House's 2014-15 spending plan approved in June includes $25 million of that grant for the Oregon Opportunity Grant, the state's version of Title I funding; the governor's budget proposal to be approved on Thursday will likely include $2.8 million of it plus extra money from the Legislature. - -Oregon's Opportunity Grants are intended to provide low-income kids with a college education, though many other states use them for funding elementary education. The grant is for a maximum of $19,000, though students with incomes below that amount can apply for grants as low as $7,200. Some of the money is spent on tutoring, college counseling and other educational resources. The state has spent $1.2 billion since 2002 on the program. - -In testimony before the Legislature's special committee on juvenile justice, former University of Washington Chancellor James R. Fowler was critical of the Opportunity Grant program, saying it often focuses on a limited range of potential uses, and does not provide enough help to students who come from families with little education. "For decades now, the program as it stands has been designed for families that have incomes below $35,000," Fowler said, speaking to one program intended to provide college scholarships to students from low-income homes. - -Many students who participate in Opportunity Grants come from families with serious criminal histories. More than 70 percent of Opportunity Grant applicants in 2012 were students of color, compared to just about half of students in all of the other programs, according to the governor's Office of Planning and Budget. - -During the committee hearing, several opponents of the measure spoke, mostly against the idea of subsidizing college education for high-risk offenders, saying it would be too expensive and the state budget would suffer if funds were diverted to higher-needs students. - -Forrester, who said she had been working to make college accessible to low-income students for years, agreed with those points and took aim at the program's focus on helping kids who can't afford college even if they qualify. "A lot of these grant programs, you start by saying you're going to help these kids but the money you give to them is not going to enable them to go to college," Forrester said. Her proposal would pay for tuition and other costs and allow eligible students to receive aid for college even if they already have some post-graduation education or training. - -Supporters have also argued the grants are an effective way to promote educational achievement among at-risk youth. Forrester said her proposal will make it easier for people to get help from local colleges to pay for college, which could otherwise remain expensive for many students. - -Sen. Rod Monroe, D-Klamath Falls, who voted in favor of the plan at Tuesday's hearing, said the Senate could eventually vote on it as an amendment to the state budget, likely in February. - -In the meantime, he said, it is important to take care of students already in our community because they don't have a voice in the Legislature. - -The bill is SB 959.<|endoftext|>"We all want to keep kids safe.

If researchers approve a candidate for large-scale testing, they'll use the candidate -- called GSK's tetanus and diphtheria (Td) vaccine -- to make vaccine as an effective, safe and efficacious prevention tool for infants and children who are too young to receive the MMR vaccine for the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR). If approved, the vaccine would be given via the recommended series of doses, four months apart, starting at 2 months of age.In a paper published on Monday, NIH Director Francis Collins said he's confident in the vaccine's safety, effectiveness and likely route to licensure as part of the U.S. childhood vaccination strategy under the new policy, known as the Childhood Vaccine Injury Prevention Act of 2008.He said, "This study supports the decision that we made over a decade ago to invest in, and test, the first universal immunization against Td. We believe this is now a very strong candidate."Researchers looked at nearly 200,000 vaccinated children and found that a tetanus-diphtheria vaccine containing tetanus toxoid and a single dose of diphtheria toxoid were able to effectively protect them from the disease. The researchers reported no unexpected side effects associated with the vaccine, none of which could exceed five days of mild fever or any serious complications that could cause life-long paralysis or disfigurement. The vaccine was administered to infants at 2.6 months, 3 months, 4 months and 5 months.The vaccine produced the exact amount of antibody in the blood required to protect against diphtheria. The researchers reported that it could prevent 95 percent of diphtheria hospitalizations among 1,924 pre-adolescent children. The vaccine is expected to be licensed for immunization in 2010.To make it effective in children, the vaccine contains small amounts of tetanus and diphtheria toxins from the mother, which are delivered using an adenovirus that infects the mother, who passes it to the fetus through the placenta before delivery. The researchers reported that a combination of six vaccines produced the level of tetanus and diphtheria antibodies needed to provide protection.The government's new policy requires all infants, children aged 6 months or older and infants and children with immunocompromising diseases to receive at least one dose of the Td vaccine by the age of 12 months. That's the same schedule of vaccinations recommended for children who already received the MMR vaccine in school.In addition, the policy requires all infants, children aged 6 to 17, pregnant women and adolescents who have any history of autoimmune, congenital, neurodevelopmental or other chronic health conditions that could interfere with the immune response to the Td vaccine to receive at least two doses in any one year through ages 20 to 24, as well as two doses of the additional Td component later in life.The NIH has three years to submit the data needed for FDA licensure.Collins said he expects to see the new vaccine on the market within five years. He believes that the vaccine will be available for the cost of a third round of MMR vaccine, which is currently $21.50.<|endoftext|>A new report by the Pew Research Center reveals America's political divide, and what that means for the next president. - -A new report from the Pew Research Center reveals America's political divide, and what that means for the next president. As Pew explains, the 2016 presidential election is shaping up to be a "deeply partisan conflict over where the nation stands in the broader arc of American history" that has brought Republican Donald Trump into an increasingly heated, and increasingly personal battle that will decide which party holds the Oval Office. - - -Pew found that the nation is more divided along partisan lines than at any point in 25 years. Only 27 percent of the public describes itself as "moderate." That's a stunning 20 points lower than when Pew last did an analysis in 2004. When it comes to their policy preferences, meanwhile, the public has broken deeply into two groups. The GOP is getting much more extreme, Pew found, while the Democratic party is becoming more center-left. - -In addition to these stark divisions, Pew found that the ideological divide that has become the hallmark of modern politics is much more pronounced, and more pronounced along political lines than it used be. - -Overall, the new divide is more about the partisan makeup of the nation's political parties than it is about any particular ideology. But it does seem that the Republican Party has become more ideologically extreme in the past decade -======================================== SAMPLE 446 ======================================== -You are not logged in to your account.

These are the city's hidden treasures, and their visitors are not just a public-relations boon for the city. They are paying for the upkeep of these places with taxes that are more than 10 times the average annual local income in New York City….The visitor to Manhattan can now get a glimpse not just of the tallest building in the Eastern Hemisphere, but also the most spectacular building in the United States. In the end, all those billions of dollars of public dollars have made the public feel a bit closer to the things that they cherish and value and share their lives with." - -(New York Times) - -I read a lot of the same stuff here. I read the book The Great Wall of China in college, as one of my senior projects. I read that it will take at least $50 billion and a total of 15 years, or 20 years for a permanent wall — to complete the restoration. So…I guess I'm pretty okay with the financial burden. But what I'm not okay with is the idea that these places are private property. I'm not happy that they are owned by us mere mortals, that we can go there and enjoy them. I never thought of it like that. I thought the places were in the public domain, and it was up to me as a visitor, as a citizen of this little blue marble patch of the universe, to ensure that my money was being used to conserve. - -In the book, the writer, Brian Moylan, says that "some visitors are offended when they see American national parks managed by Washington, D.C., or the National Park Service in other nations run by the U.S. government." And he asks "how on earth the United States government is going to manage a project as monumental as the Empire State Building or the Great Wall of China." It's not just foreigners who feel this way — Americans too: - -"American visitors to China often come back more critical of the Chinese economy than they did in China itself. If you go to China, you don't see a thriving private sector," says one U.S. visitor, who works in a Chinese office-supply company and speaks on the condition of anonymity. "But if you go to the U.S.–Western border, like New York City, you see the thriving private sector," he adds, though he doesn't mean the financial sector, but the entrepreneurial sector that serves the public sector. - -So I'm just as happy as you that money is being spent to restore some of our best remaining heritage sites. But I'm angry that the public is paying for it. - -(Bloomberg)<|endoftext|>The New Jersey Devils have announced that they have signed forward Reid Boucher to a free agent entry-level contract.

(Courtesy of Twitter) - -In a first, a male executive on tech's hottest firm — Reddit — has resigned from the board after a sexist lawsuit led to a gender discrimination suit. When Reddit's chief executive, Ellen Pao, first took over as CEO in February, she told reporters that it would take time for the site to find its own way. After she faced a gender discrimination lawsuit last week, Pao sent an apology to users Wednesday. She wrote that the board had asked her to step down effective immediately. "I want to apologize personally to each of you for the pain and frustration I have caused," the former Kleiner Perkins executive wrote on the site. - -The resignations were a signal to Reddit's roughly 300 million daily users that Pao was serious about making Reddit a better place for women to gather. It came on the same day Twitter announced plans to ban three accounts that impersonated actress Rose McGowan, who had been a vocal opponent of Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey after he was forced out as CEO last month. - -While the backlash to Pao's firing has been swift from users, the broader tech industry is weighing in. At least one of the biggest names in venture capital is backing the New York Public Library's purchase of Reddit. - -Reddit shares fell 3.5 percent after closing trading Friday at $18.08. - -"This is a major development. It's just like what Twitter did," said Brian Wieser, chief executive of Pivotal Research Group, an analyst who has been closely following Reddit and its growth. "It's a sign that more and more investors are getting it. - -[Ellen Pao to step down as Reddit CEO, in her own words] - -But some say Pao will be able to find support among some of Reddit's board members, which includes former PayPal and eBay executive Sam Altman, Yahoo Chairman Marissa Mayer and Google Chairman Eric Schmidt, as well as venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. - -"If you're a company on the board of directors that wants to work with Reddit, then this situation is a major sign the board is really interested to see how they can grow," said Dan Schawbel, a Stanford University computer science professor who has been closely observing Reddit and the wider Internet community. That's because Pao's departure won't impact the company's ability to operate its popular online platform, he noted. - -Still, the move may not make a dent in the company's revenue, which accounts for nearly 10 percent of all the Internet services Google offers. Many investors aren't convinced that Reddit is a better long-term bet than many of the others with billions of dollars in venture capital backing. - -"This is a classic Silicon Valley story — a company that's a startup, but has the resources of a big company," said Robert Peck, managing director and director of enterprise and social investing at Ritholtz Wealth Management. "It was very evident that Ellen felt the need to get rid of the board to make moves. She may be right, but this isn't a good outcome for Reddit." - -Pao's decision to step down comes six weeks after she brought a female CEO to her office, and a year after a male counterpart. - -"Everyone is really focused on the change taking place at Reddit that has the potential to grow the company and attract new users," said Huffman, who had been Reddit's chief operating officer since 2007. - -Huffman said he planned to "take Reddit to an even higher level of success than what it is today." - -Last month, Reddit's website attracted more than 170 million unique visitors to its websites, representing a 25 percent increase from the same time last year. - -Pao was a former chief executive of Silicon Valley's Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, according to her LinkedIn profiles. She joined Yahoo in July 2011, where she served as a business development officer and director of diversity. - -Pao, in a statement provided by a spokesman, said she is taking responsibility for her "error of judgment." "I made a mistake by allowing some Reddit fans to engage in harassing behavior," she said in the statement. "I regret that they felt they could make me the worst CEO in the world." She added: "I am committed to creating a Reddit that is welcoming to everyone."<|endoftext|>The following document gives a brief guide to the process of getting an Australian visa or an Australian citizenship.

"So, the only thing left for you and I to do is to try to make peace." - -Many in Brussels, however, are not waiting around for an all-out civil war that could destabilize other parts of Europe as Germany, France, Scandinavia and Ukraine have done in the past. - -"If the United States really believes that Ukraine is an ally, they should try to help this nation not break apart," said a senior EU diplomat, speaking on the condition of anonymity. - -The former U.S. ambassador said that by supporting Mr. Putin, "the United States would be legitimizing his aggression, and the Europeans would have less credibility to criticize Russia." - -The European Union has adopted a policy of "a strong stance" toward Russia even as the Kremlin has moved aggressively to bolster its position in eastern Ukraine with an intense wave of activity, officials and Western diplomats say. - -The EU has so far frozen some $6 billion in loans to Russia, moved to suspend the delivery of natural gas to Russia and called for sanctions against Moscow and its businesses. European officials say the European Union will likely start discussing potential new penalties against Russia in its next summit meeting in December. - -A number of European officials said they fear Mr. Putin could respond with aggression to any push to impose even harsher sanctions. - -"When you make it clear to Russia that sanctions are inevitable and they're going to pay in consequences, you don't want to give any ammunition to Mr. Putin to say, 'You got what you deserve,'" one senior British diplomat said. - -Still, the EU has shown little political will in pressing Russia. Officials said the bloc's leaders, many of whom are facing local elections on May 25, are focused on preparing for the parliamentary election in Germany and not wanting to anger voters by appearing weak on matters of mutual concern. - -Still, a major diplomatic effort, led by Mr. Kerry, is under way. Mr. Kerry and other officials have been in touch with Ukraine's Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin. They expect the United States to give Mr. Kerry "a full briefing" before a Group of Eight meeting in Northern Ireland in mid-June. - -U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power said in Brussels on Thursday that "Russia continues to commit unacceptable violations of Ukraine's sovereignty, territorial integrity, and independence using an army and paramilitary forces supported by the government." - -"We are calling for Russia to stop the military build-up and support Ukrainian forces with heavy weapons and equipment," Ms. Power said. - -The Obama administration plans to increase economic sanctions. The Treasury Department on Thursday announced sanctions against a small Russian bank and several energy companies that it has accused of providing money to support a separatist movement in eastern Ukraine. - -That announcement was not linked to the latest developments in Ukraine, and was unlikely to change Moscow's calculation that Europe is not doing enough to stop the Russian advance. But it underscores the risks for the United States and its allies in dealing with Moscow. - -President Obama has also spoken directly to Russian President Vladimir Putin. "They need to show some restraint, stop fueling the violence and take steps to deescalate the conflict," Mr. Obama said in a news conference with French President François Hollande on Thursday. "And ultimately, when both sides have exhausted the options for de-escalation and diplomacy to address these issues, the U.S. and Europe will consider their own responses." - -Mr. Power has said that Mr. Obama is "disappointed" with Russia's recent behavior, but added that the United States will have to consider its options. - -The sanctions so far have had little effect inside Russia, but they have raised fears in the West that if they are not tightened further, European citizens will stop doing business or travel to the countries that might sanction Russia. - -With Russian officials in Crimea and the east, including Moscow's regional governors, publicly endorsing pro-Russia forces and Russia's military buildup in those regions, Europe has seen an increased Russian military troop presence in eastern Ukraine. - -One senior American official said this week that there had been a 50 percent surge in Russian troops and heavy weapons arriving in the area of eastern Ukraine, where they have joined separatist forces who have fought back against both Ukrainian military and Russian forces. - -European officials say they also see signs that Mr. Russian officials in Crimea are trying to intimidate the population into accepting its control and are using the Crimean legislature as a cover for their activities, including attempts to rewrite the country's constitution. - -"They seem quite intent on trying to break up the Ukrainian Federation without war," said Christopher Harmer, head of the Eurasia Group's Europe practice. - - -======================================== SAMPLE 449 ======================================== -"The most basic idea is that you're never going to see somebody win a $1 million lottery," says Stephen Gordon, CEO of AEG Capital. "There just isn't that many winners." - -Gordon and other gambling experts note that people have always found fun in gambling and that the modern industry of lotteries and gambling is an outgrowth of a long-running business with a clear purpose: generating revenue for those who play. - -"You're never going to see somebody win a $1 million lottery," says Gordon, the former head of the state's Gaming Control Board and an attorney who often represents the state at the U.S. Supreme Court. "There just isn't that many winners." - -Gambling profits are growing at some of the fastest rates, even as the size of the country's population and its economy shrinks. For instance, at the end of 2012, the industry generated more than $50bn (£40bn) in revenue nationwide. - -By comparison, a typical individual making the minimum wage brings in about $21,000 a year, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. - -More from the Magazine The lottery has its best chance since the dawn of time, and that was before the first Powerball ticket was sold. One man with a winning ticket. But he has never seen his winnings. To him, the lottery was his ticket to a life of leisure. So why would he keep the winning ticket a secret? - -But this is changing as gambling grows in popularity and states move to legalize it. The rise of gambling is often driven by economic, cultural and societal trends in society – in this case, an explosion of gambling. - -"Gambling is a natural result of having so many more people around," says Gordon. "It's a phenomenon that comes, in many ways, after a period of rapid population growth and an economy that is growing like gangbusters. The more people you have to serve, the more gambling is going to come because you can attract so many people to the table." - -When a lottery is played, it takes on an aura of magical certainty. It's a rite of passage for people to win anything. People can build a life in one of the many jobs associated with winning. People are attracted to the way it is perceived by society as a positive thing, especially when it is a long-term source of income, which is not only good for the gambler but for his or her family – and friends. - -Gambling is now a billion-dollar business - -In a sense, Gordon and many investors in casino gambling are the latest to reap the financial rewards of the industry's growth. Before the lottery was widely used by the middle class, the market was dominated by the rich. But the rich were willing to pay more for luck: "the price of success", as Gordon calls it. - -"Gambling is not a victim," he says. "It's an industry. Most people have it in their families. People love the money." - -The lottery has grown in popularity among the middle class as an alternative to the traditional, harder path of college. In an era when high school drop-out rate is high across the developing world, the lottery is a gateway for many children. - -The more players there are, the more money we get - -According to the UN, half of the world's population will never be rich. Many of them, however, fall into a group considered one of the most "inequality-stricken" in the world: the less-fortunate. - -The majority of these people never become affluent and have been living with less wealth. These people, or their families, have to survive with very little, leaving them with very little spare cash. - -The poor are usually at the bottom rung of society and live a difficult life because they live with less and less money – but because of the lottery they have a chance to be lucky or rich and make the other half of the population wealthy. - -"It's an economic activity," says Gordon of lotteries. "It's people having a choice to play this game." - -The rise of the lottery is "like the rise of the mobile phone," says Gordon. As people make more and more of their personal life choices through smartphones – and with gambling becoming a major industry, this will only continue -- people will more and more likely make the same choice. - -It's an economic activity. It's people having a choice to play this game - -By contrast, most of the other money-making activities – like selling products online or investing in stocks – aren't in a sense "free". They are more or less forced to operate. Like any major industry, gambling is subject to regulation in all markets. - -For gambling businesses, gambling in America is seen as an industry with a bright future. It has an inherent advantage over many other forms of business: it's legal.

Weijenberg, a professor of radiology and bioelectrical sciences and professor emeritus of medicine in the division of pathology of the University of Calgary. - -"In the future, omega-3 fatty acids may be used as a new, inexpensive and important source of energy that could reduce the need for energy-dense foods to prevent chronic diseases such as obesity and obesity-related diabetes," said Weijenberg, principal investigator of the study and head of the Radiology Research and Evaluation Department. "Our findings may lead to the use of high-fat omega-3 diets in the prevention of chronic disease." - -Omega-3 fats are present in fish and especially flaxseed oil. They are known to play a role in cell growth and development and are thought to protect cells from oxidation, and may even protect against age-related diseases such as breast and prostate cancer. - -Weijenberg and his team analyzed the relationship between age and mortality and found that a more recent age was associated with a 10-23 per cent reduction in the risk of death in women who did not have a family history of cancer. - -The researchers also identified the specific omega-3 fats present in flaxseed oil and its relation to mortality. They identified several components in flaxseed oil, including gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), as well as several omega-3 fatty acids. - -The scientists also analyzed the effects of flaxseed oil on other age associated diseases including coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and stroke. - -Based on its effects on age-associated conditions such as coronary heart disease and diabetes, Weijenberg says flaxseed oil could be used as an alternative to stearic acid (C20:5) to replace saturated fat in the diet to prevent chronic diseases such as obesity and obesity-related diabetes. - -Dr. John H. Klimley, a professor of radiology and biomedical sciences at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, says the study will improve the understanding of the risk factors in women who are at high risk for developing disease. - -"This study is important because it shows how dietary fatty acids can mediate a variety of health effects, including lowering cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease risk," he said. "The benefits of fatty acids, particularly the Omega-3s, could even extend to the prevention of cancer. In fact, we recently found that a high-flavanol-to-safflower-fat ratio could predict the development of new cancers in mice. If omega-3 fatty acids were taken up by cells in the blood, they could act to regulate the growth of the cancers." - -The study was funded by a grant from the National Institutes of Health to Dr. Brian Weijenberg.<|endoftext|>The National Football League is investigating the Houston Texans after their players took a knee at the end of the national anthem, league spokesman Joe Lockhart told USA TODAY Sports. - -The NFL is investigating the Texans after their players took a knee during the national anthem, league spokesman Joe Lockhart tells @PatrickRosenberg. @nflnfl pic.twitter.com/Z3Hs8UO3Lk — Dan Gartland (@dan_gartland) October 11, 2017 - -The Texans and the league released a joint statement on how the protest was viewed and how it affected the team that plays Sunday at Baltimore against Pittsburgh. - -Statement from the Texans and the @NFL: pic.twitter.com/VtG5V8xQp3 — Houston Texans (@HoustonTexans) October 11, 2017 - -There are protests on Oct. 10 and 19 in Baltimore.

Jonathan Singer, R-Longmont, said that this year the House is looking at reducing spending so as to keep down the amount of money coming into the general fund for lawyers for marijuana businesses. He said he wants to cut as much as $1.5 million from the General Fund for attorney fees. - -The figure for fees paid last year was $18,100.00 that covered legal fees for people trying to open business accounts, or other aspects of the business. It doesn't cover expenses that are not legal, such as rent, utilities, repairs and other general business expenses. - -Singer says that one of the biggest things that he's trying to cut is legal fees, and the other issue he's examining is how best to keep marijuana businesses on their own turf. - -"For the most part, I think we've done a pretty good job at preventing the government from coming in and interfering," Singer said. He noted that most of the fees paid by marijuana businesses were incurred in the first several years of their operating, but he's starting to see some of these issues now. - -Singer is also examining the issue of regulating those medical marijuana dispensaries, which are allowed to operate even with the full blessing of state regulators because many of them are located in unincorporated areas. - -In a discussion about the medical pot dispensaries that had been approved at the state-mandated April 1 deadline, Singer said that the state has found problems with some of the people operating them. - -"We'll have to get a better handle on who's involved to make sure we're not having illegal things going on," Singer said. - -Singer said that he has had conversations with the Attorney General's office this year regarding the issue of regulating pot dispensaries; but he said that he did not expect any changes to the regulations.<|endoftext|>WASHINGTON/NEW YORK — President Donald Trump's proposed budget would impose more stringent sanctions on Iran and cut financing to Russia, the -======================================== SAMPLE 453 ======================================== -What's in your Domain Name?

"We knew we would lose a valuable part of our team and we wanted to give up some quality prospects, but he has not provided value on the field. We had no choice." - -Dujon Shelby and Michael Saunders were traded and the Orioles sent $7.5 million to Oakland along with right-handed reliever Brian Matusz ($1 million, three-years, $21 million) and pitcher John Axford ($5 million, two years, no options), according to a team announcement. - -Jackson, 36, was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Wednesday. - -"We all know the type of player Kerry has been," Duquette said before Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. "He's always had a passion for winning. And in the minor leagues, he's proven to be one of the best baseball players out there. We knew that we needed to make a change." - -Although Jackson's production dropped over his first two seasons — his last two seasons in the majors ended with 15 home runs and 62 RBI — his overall value still was enough to warrant the move. - -Jackson hit .259 with three homers, 24 RBI and 37 runs scored in 72 games this season.<|endoftext|>The former president of the European Parliament, Martin Schulz, has called for Britain to leave the EU after the Brexit vote, saying that Britain would be "irreparably damaged" if it left. - -Speaking to The Telegraph he said: "All the arguments we used when the Brits left were right and they would be equally valid now." - -"Britain leaving the EU will be a huge setback for Europe and the European project." - -Mr Schulz said he believed Theresa May was not a "good partner for Europe" as she had previously claimed, despite the recent visit from the Prime Minister. - -He added: "I have been saying to [Mrs May] that Britain will be irreparably damaged if it leaves the European Union and [they say] that it's not the case. - -"It's the beginning of a bad phase. And I don't know what she thinks the consequences will be." - -In a wide-ranging interview to mark his first year as president — during which he will officially take over from former European Parliament president Martin Schulz — the German MP also said he believes that the UK would make a "superior" and "much better" country outside the EU. - -While the British people would remain free to take out their pensions in the EU, he added, "the people will not be able to vote for their own money in Brussels". - -He also confirmed that he would not seek to become the new president of the European Commission when his mandate ends in 2019 and said Brussels was becoming "notorious" in Europe. - -"One can understand why people think that now Brussels is becoming notorious. It has to change. It is not working," Mr Schulz said of the city of Brussels, adding that he plans to use his first year to improve the European Parliament's reputation. - -The European Parliament president said he was currently preparing for his first working visit in the European Council — the gathering of the heads of state and government — with President Donald Tusk and EU Council President Donald Tusk. - -Mrs May is now likely to set out her plans for Brexit in the next few months at the EU summit meeting in Malta next month, Mr Schulz said. - -"It will be a very complicated process and there will be a few surprises in her speech," he said. - -"It has to be about Britain. It is not just about the future relationship with the UK." - -But despite Mr Schulz's doubts about Britain remaining in the EU if it leaves the bloc in February 2019, the former Socialist MEP said he did not believe it would have a negative impact on the UK. - -Speaking about the possible future of the UK leaving the bloc, he continued: "I don't think Brexit will have an adverse effect on the UK. - -"For me it is about Europe."<|endoftext|>"No matter how much I wanted [this interview] to be the last thing to ever happen, I thought it was an important story to tell.

He was perhaps the most acclaimed and prolific painter of his time. - -Crécy worked mainly in the romantic styles of the early 20th century, where he employed a combination of forms including monumentalism, formalism, color theory and sculpture. His paintings are characterized by an almost romantic naivety, and many of his works were commissioned by famous artists or patrons, such as Auguste Rodin. His style, especially since the 1920s, was associated with the work of Gustave Courbet who was the subject of an influential French magazine article of the same name. Courbet studied under Crécy at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, which was a major influence on his style. - -From 1902-1959, Crécy worked as a painter for the Boulogne museum in France. His first work was published in the Paris journal Le Peintre in August 1897, where he produced nine illustrations for the magazine. These drawings (published as a serial in Le Peintre between September 1897 and 1894) are notable for the emotional intensity and eroticism expressed in the subjects, which were mostly female body forms. His second work was entitled L'Onde de la Chasse. These drawings took Crécy's style in a more abstract direction. Although some critics consider him a modernist in his abstract expressionism, his work does not follow this same trend. His work as a painter was recognized by the French authorities but his influence and popularity in the early 20th century, both internationally and by France, has been recognized. - -In 1901 Crécy established a studio at 21 rue Réaumur in Lyon and he became known to the world on May 15th, when he was awarded the Gold Medal in the 'Degree of Art', which was awarded in Stockholm. His paintings are regarded as important figures in the development of art at this time. - -In 1922, Crécy returned to the Boulogne and published the first of a series of his painting entitled Les Cérémonieux (Cement Houses). The second of these was Les Petites Chiffres (The Little Girls), in which a woman is depicted naked with an animal on her back, in addition to some abstract forms, which were considered to be a forerunner to the influence of Cubism in the coming generations. Another piece of work entitled Les Périgines de Laffitte-le-Guérin (The Petite Girls of Laffitte-le-Guérin) appeared in 1928. The third series of Les Cérémonieux was released in 1944 and was accompanied by a lithograph entitled Mésapireur et Enfant de l'Homme ("Father and Child"), which was an important part of Crécy's later oeuvre. - -The early work of Crécy has been largely unpublished, but it is clear from his correspondence with his mentor, Rodin, that Crécy made a definite impression on Rodin's mind as a result of the influence of his older artist colleague. Crécy was to stay close, working and collaborating with Rodin until his death in 1919.<|endoftext|>An Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commander was killed on Saturday, as coalition forces struck at Daesh targets in northern Iraq, an IS security official has said. - -"The commander of IRGC's Quds Force was killed," the official, who spoke to Press TV on condition of anonymity, said on Thursday. - -The official said a large number of missiles were targeted by the coalition on five Daesh gathering bases in northern Anbar province, as the terrorists "dismay the coalition's relentless advance" - -The strike was aimed at the Daesh bases located near Makhmour, according to the statement. - -The official also said that several of the missiles, carried by a helicopter, hit targets on the Mosul front as the militants "reject and protest" the U.S.-led coalition's continued aerial onslaught. - -The IS security official said that the military target that was struck was the Quds Force commander. - -The Iranian military commander, Gen.

Now you can test that component with the latest web browsers in under a minute and not even wait for the update. Simply create a component in web inspector, then click "Tests: Generate Web Console" option and it will generate a simple console with some examples. - -Step 1: Choose the component(s) you want to test. - -Select different elements from your app and test them both. You can find the components here. - -Select from any of them and click "Generate test" button. - -Step 2: Build the components - -This command will generate a file for your test components: - -gulp test:components - -This file contains all available components with their test class. You can either use the same class name or change the component class names so that you can compare and find the differences on console between different browsers. In general use the same class names for all component except for those marked with "debug". - -Step 3: Create a new component test - -This is a good time to start writing your test code. If you don't have any test framework installed, you can create a new test project using gulp test:gen. Just put your test files in src/test folder and run a gulp test:compile command to generate all test files in a build folder. - -If you already have a web browser tested and there is no need for you to test that component any more, just delete your project folder. - -Tests are run from the web console in the browser at localhost:8080/. - -If you want to create a web server based tests for a specific component, run the command: gulp run:server . This runs server side code inside the web browser on localhost:8080/index.html.

The new film will be told in a way that shows no one is safe in this world, and will be a bloody, hilarious, action-packed roller coaster ride that is sure to leave its mark on your psyche. I have seen many of the movies in this franchise and know that they are not only visually stunning but also full of incredible stories but I do not think I am going to like this movie. - -I have read comments from a lot of people that they are going to like it because of a few things and that is true – at first there isn't much to do other than the fights from previous. However, after about 20 minutes of fighting, there isn't really anything more left to do. You can't choose where the villains, the rebels, the humans and even the creatures fall from. You don't really get a chance to make any progress; but let's face it, Hollywood can't be completely original each and every time. - -After the initial fight sequence, you can just follow the story which takes a while to get started. Things you will see are things you have already seen: the human rebels that were killed by the creatures so that the humans can escape the planet Earth, an accident that results in a human being turning into a monster and more. These things are so familiar that they seem almost forced into it; which is just wrong because the last movie made a point of showing that these themes are in place. - -You begin the movie with a bunch of people who are stuck on the ship that was supposed to take them off of the planet Earth, including a guy, "The Captain" who tries to find the way back home but cannot move. The story goes in a few different directions and we don't quite get to know anything about them until about three quarters in – when the movie is all about the humans and monsters, leaving us with very little to be interested with. The movie will pick up once we get to meet some other people and it is obvious that they will be important. - -It is hard to give a good description of the new film; it changes up the formula every time and it is quite hard to predict how the next film in the series will go. There's a lot of fight scenes as we have already seen from each movie and the monsters are really scary. We already have all the characters that were in the earlier movies so by the time the movie begins, we are already familiar with all of them and will have a fun ride all the way through. That kind of fun ride has never been made before. - -With so many familiar sights and sounds throughout the movie, it feels like it almost has the feeling of something from the 1980s. The first film came out over 30 years ago so people have had time to forget what it looked like and what it felt like. The new one will no doubt bring some of these nostalgic feelings but this is just because the movie has taken so long to come out, so it makes sense that the nostalgia will be present. The action sequence with these characters having to fight and shoot at each other, especially in the second half will have you feeling that you are watching an 80s movie on your couch. - -The character acting is on par with the best from all the previous movies. I have never seen so many different characters that are all likable and you can tell that they are all on the same level. You don't know who the good guys are or who is the baddie and you have to do a lot of guessing. I don't think people will be able to stop laughing to the film because it is just so much fun to watch. With all the blood and the gore, it is pretty obvious what kind of film this is. - -It is not a new film but a continuation to films that started back in 1987. The action scenes are so fast and the characters on the screen seem so real that you can't help but laugh as you watch. The best part is that there doesn't seem to be any real story until the second half. There is a reason why this film has stayed in storage for the past 30 years and it has nothing to do with the story itself – it has everything to do with the cast and the actors. These people were all great at acting and their performances are so memorable. - -The movie is definitely not for everyone – I can't really say what the film could have been if it didn't cost a whole lot of money. However, as many people have stated, it is the best one ever and can give you some great laughs and some amazing memories. The fact that it takes place in a different galaxy does the writing justice and if you are a fan of the earlier movies this could be for you.<|endoftext|>The first three days of my trip, I went off to the mountains and just walked -======================================== SAMPLE 458 ======================================== -If you wish to receive email notification when our website updates, you must first subscribe to this list . - -The following is an outline of all of the topics covered on our website, and the links to those articles are on the navigation bar to the right. - -I.

On previous ROMs this issue was present but the fix was to include a full unlock screen with the fingerprint. - -Not anymore. - -The latest beta update includes a full unlock option without having to switch between various home screens, something that was previously available with a long press. This is the same way Android 7.1 added in a swipe from right to top shortcut when using fingerprint readers – a good solution though not as efficient as something like a touchless unlock app like Easy Unlock. - -There is one new fix for another crash that could happen when the OnePlus 3's camera app was opened. That said it is not the culprit here, rather the camera's audio is often out of sync with the time it is captured and that could potentially lead to a crash. - -There is a new version of OnePlus' OTA utility that is also available in the beta, and it has an option to check for and download the updated OTA files. This OTA utility has been available in the past but it will now also work with the OnePlus 3 Beta Software, meaning that it will update the OnePlus 3 in case something goes wrong. - -The update also includes a fix for some weird behaviour on the OnePlus 3 when used by someone who uses the OnePlus 3 Pro but doesn't have the OP3. When this happens the software will prompt the user to download the appropriate version of OTA, as opposed to automatically downloading the latest OTA from OnePlus. - -As always, you will also have access to OnePlus' official software if you own the OnePlus 3; just tap the "More" button on the lock screen when your phone is locked for the last time and then select "More". The OTA files will then be offered for download.<|endoftext|>About "The Great Divide" - -The first song on Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, the main theme is a variation or addition to "New Slaves". The main idea is that even though the person you love most still believes that you are "better" than them but in fact they were just following their heart which is how it always should be. Kanye also raps about the love that he has for his family, friends and the woman he is currently with. Despite this, Kanye never stops questioning, always having new questions to ask himself like his parents and what it truly means to love yourself. - -In interviews, Kanye referred to this song as "the dark part of the album." - -The first verse is also the opening of Kanye's 2011 single (Kanye West, Vampire Sex Party Remix) with the title "New Slaves", which can be considered a sequel to this (after the "New Slaves" version of the music video was released).<|endoftext|>A young man has pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting an elderly woman while she was trying to make her way home from work. - -Michael Broussard, 22, was arrested on May 7 on the charge of sexual assault on an elderly victim and appeared in court today. - -The court heard that the incident happened after Broussard's vehicle had blocked the woman's path and she tried to get out to use the phone, then she was attacked. - -Defence lawyers sought treatment for the "traumatic and profound harm" of the attack and Broussard was released on the condition he stay away from the elderly victim. - -According to the victim's statement, she had gone to work for the Health and Community Services in downtown Toronto the day before last and had returned to her home at around midnight.

And she said "you can do that in any party" should she lose for the Democratic nomination in 2020. - -Story Continued Below - -"The way I think about this campaign and this campaign now is I am running a campaign of new ideas," Clinton said on "Morning Joe". "And so I am going to talk about a lot of different topics and I am going to say, 'What really matters in that election, who have I heard from, what is the agenda of the Democratic Party? And then I am going to say, 'Vote for me.'" - -Clinton called her primary opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders a "credible Democratic candidate," as well as Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.) a "very credible Democratic governors." - -She also referenced Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-Mass.), who has been tapped by Sanders's campaign to be the vice presidential running mate. - -"Elizabeth Warren is a very credible Democratic candidate to be vice president," Clinton said during the roundtable discussion on Wednesday. "I want to see the Democratic Party and progressive forces, young people, get involved all over. - -"The reason why I started this campaign is because there were so many people out there who said 'We should take Bernie Sanders's campaign seriously. What he is saying is absolutely right.' I want to take it to a real place and I think you can do that in any party." - -Clinton also talked about the Republican White House: "I think there is an emerging understanding that we need to have a much tougher response to the threats that we face. [But] I think it is going to be hard to get a really strong majority without a good working partisan majority." - -She said she hopes to win in a presidential year in which there is an open Republican Senate: "But I think the most important thing for this country in 2020 is to put some Democrats in charge of Congress. I've met a lot of them. I'd like to have their votes."<|endoftext|>A man found hanging himself in his South Florida home late Wednesday morning will be brought to Orlando to receive an award recognizing outstanding police work. - -The man, who identified himself as "Buddy," was found hanging in his apartment at the St. Augustine Village apartment complex off S.C. 940 near St. Augustine on Wednesday.

If you are a Chinese investor the answer is the same. In a scheme that was uncovered by the Wall Street Journal, a New York real estate investor is trying to do an expensive reverse takeover of one of Trump's golf courses—the latest attempt by Chinese investors to buy into the U.S. real estate market. - -China's interest in buying real estate in the U.S. has long been a subject of fascination for foreign investors, but few have tried such a large scale buyout of another country's property. The Chinese government has allowed foreigners to buy large tracts of American land with the intention of selling them at a later date to foreign investors—a technique known colloquially as "land-grabbing," the Journal says. - -While no official record has been made available and the exact size of the buyout, the price is estimated to be around $150 million. - -That price doesn't even come close to the Trump course, the only Trump property the Journal notes that Beijing has expressed interest in buying—an estimated $18-30 million of it, according to sources familiar with the matter. - -While the Trump course hasn't been the focus of Chinese interest since Donald Trump was elected, Beijing's interest is clear. The Trump property's owners, the US-listed developer CIM Group, have reportedly said they are working on a plan to sell it to mainland clients, although one Chinese newspaper reported that the sale may be delayed as Trump deals with a series of corruption charges at home.<|endoftext|>About - -"I'm gonna give you $20,000 and let you pick any song from the radio that sounds good and I'll pay you $2,500 for every copy sold until that day. Do whatever you feel." - Jay-Z from Back to Back to Back - -We at Back to Back to Back created this concept in an attempt to change radio and bring back the original feeling of listening. We took the best songs in the world, and put them in a single box. We call it the Playlist & Soundtrack Box and the one box contains 50 songs for $20,000. Our goal is to make the Box something that every hip-hop artist could own. It is not just any box. The Box will look like a hip-hop classic album. It will hold 10 copies of a record, but only allow two to be played at the same time. We plan on creating the first production box in the hip-hop industry. The Playlist & Soundtrack Box will feature classic hip-hop like Run-D.M.C.'s A Better Tomorrow, Jay-Z's The Saga Continues and 50 Cent's Life After Death & The Rise & Fall of Cash Money/Slim's 50th Anniversary Collection by Nas, EPMD, Public Enemy and Cypress Hill. It will take you back to a time when there was only one box and you could only get the one song you wanted to hear. - -One artist who has agreed to do the box for us is Lil Wayne, who was featured on the first Playlist & Soundtrack Box. - -We believe that the Box is going to bring back the feeling of the music industry. It is going to be a music collector's dream and one we know would be appreciated by even the most hardcore listeners out there. The music industry needs that kind of incentive, and our mission is to bring a new wave of playlists back to the masses. - -We are asking for your support. - -Please share our campaign to the best of your abilities. - -Thank you and Thank you Lil Wayne. - -About Jay-Z - -Born in Detroit, Jay-Z is an American musician who has written some of the greatest songs in the hip-hop genre.

When a quarterback is taken, fans like the promise of a franchise-changing signal-caller. But the Redskins may have to rethink that strategy if Washington can't retain Robert Griffin III. - -According to Sports Illustrated's Peter King, Washington is "preparing a third-round offer" to retain its starting quarterback, who will become a free agent July 15. - -The Redskins are one of the most aggressive teams at finding high-profile quarterbacks and it's not that long ago that Griffin was perceived as a player who could "win right away." Instead, Griffin has been an inconsistent, underachieving starter who has thrown six interceptions and averaged a whopping 5.7 yards per carry in four seasons since turning pro in 2012. - -Griffin isn't the only veteran quarterback who will hit free agency in 2015. In fact, a half-dozen teams could look for an upgrade behind the wheel by March. - -The top of the market may already be set in stone. Matt Moore and Jay Cutler are out of options, and Ryan Fitzpatrick is still going strong as one of the NFL's best backups at 35 years old. Andy Dalton is 33 and Alex Smith can be counted on to lead the Chiefs to another championship, but both signal-callers are coming off disappointing seasons. - -The Redskins have two picks in the first three rounds of the draft, and are a couple of picks from the top of the second round. That gives them an opportunity to upgrade the position, but they'll also need someone to step up in 2013. - -At 26 years old, Griffin will be entering the prime of his career and has two more years of guaranteed money left on his contract. In 2013, he should be considered a veteran-caliber quarterback because that's what he'll be for the majority of his career. The team would be wise to secure his services the moment they can. - -Follow Dan Hanzus on Twitter @danhanzus.<|endoftext|>1.4.1 What's new - -• Minor tweaks & fixes - -• Performance improvements - -1.4.0 What's new - -• Completely new soundtracks to make the game even more immersive - - -And more… - -• More levels to explore, more weapons to use and more enemies lurking in the shadows - - -And more… - -• Customisable controls for more ways to play - - -And more… - -• New enemy types to battle - - -And more… - -• Improved visuals & graphics - - -And more… - -• Improved compatibility for iOS 11 - - -And more… - -• iPhone X support - - -And more… - -• Improved performance - -1.3.0 What's new - -• 3-way split screen support (up to four users on one screen) - - -And more… - -• More weapons; more enemies; more enemies - - -And more… - -• A new enemy type: The Tearmonger - - -And more… - -• A new enemy type: The Gorgon - - -And more… - -• A new enemy type: The Viper - - -And more… - -• Improvements to enemy performance & visuals - - -And more… - -• Improved controls system - - -And more… - -• Performance & stability improvements - -1.2.7 What's new - -• The battle now takes place in outer space - - -Plus more… - -• A completely reworked and new graphical engine for a stunning new appearance - -• Two exclusive enemy types - - -And more… - -• A new enemy type: The Bouncer - - -And more… - -• More levels to explore, more weapons to use and more enemies lurking in the shadows - - -Plus more… - -• More enemy types to tackle - - -And more… - -• Improved enemy performance & visuals - - -And more… - -• Improved graphics engine - - -And more… - -• Performance & stability improvements - -1.2.5 What's new - -• Three-way split-screen co-op!

These laws were enacted in an attempt to stop the illegal immigration invasion that was causing so much harm to our nation. The law does not cover all illegal immigrants, but it is generally recognized as a key piece of our immigration enforcement. - -We have not been here for the last fifteen years, and while there have been many good provisions and improvements, our immigration system is still broken. This letter addresses both aspects of our immigration system. - -1. Immigration Enforcement: - -We strongly support the efforts of our Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to do their jobs to maintain public safety. We support President Barack Obama's administration efforts to identify, identify, target and arrest members of criminal gangs who have come here illegally and are hurting both the lives and the wages of our countrymen. However, our current immigration system allows these gang members and others to be able to freely enter our country without undergoing a background check and without fear. President Obama's executive order and previous actions taken by the previous administration have made our border more secure from illegal migration, however, the system still allows for these type of people to become citizens without even having a background check or a check from ICE. - -2. Temporary Protected Status (TPS) - -TPS covers countries outside of the US, which includes a number of Central and South American countries. The current program was signed into law in 1996 by then President Bill Clinton and continues to be implemented. - -It is critical that the program be changed in some way to protect those who are living here because of this country's immigration laws. For example, we need protections to ensure that people from countries with very low rates of immigration do not receive TPS. We also need more resources and a more streamlined process in which people from low-skilled countries can apply at first. - -3. Immigration Visas: - -The Department must use its discretion to make sure that those receiving any benefits received in violation of our immigration laws are actually in the country. - -4. Border Security and Immigration: - -We support President Obama's efforts to stop the illegal immigration into the US and to have the US government enforce our immigration laws. We also support President Obama's announcement that he will stop deporting those who have been ordered removed by a judge. - -We also believe, however, that if the Administration is serious about solving our border security and immigration problems that they should also use their discretion to make sure that those receiving any benefits received in violation of our immigration laws are actually in the country. - -We encourage the Administration to ensure that they have the resources necessary to ensure that people in the country illegally can't use their TPS status to remain here legally—and to do so quickly when they are encountered. - -5. Border Security: - -The Border Patrol and Border Control should be given the resources necessary to patrol all borders across the country. President Obama was right to propose a major increase in border security when he was running for President because it means fewer people can stay to illegally immigrate into our country. - -We also support the increased funding needed to enforce existing immigration laws and continue to build on the efforts already made to secure our borders. - -We appreciate the efforts by President Obama and his administration to create a much safer and more secure border. However, Congress must ensure that President Obama's actions regarding border security funding are not undermined or ignored. - -6. National Security and Immigration: - -We would support President Obama's efforts to put pressure on our allies to stop accepting people who have not been vetted. We are also opposed to any changes to the United Nations refugee resettlement program. That program helps millions of innocent men, women and children escape terror and persecution and live and call their home a secure place to try and rebuild a better life. - -Additionally, we support President Obama's actions to reduce the flow of illegal immigration, which has devastated communities, caused a huge increase in criminal activity and has impacted wages and jobs across this country for decades. We believe, however, that if the Administration is serious about stopping illegal immigration across our border and enforcing our immigration laws, they should use their discretion and give these families the opportunity to get right with the law. - -We would also like to see better funding for our border security, increased support for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the removal of wasteful funds from other government agencies to make sure that they focus on border security. - -7. Public Safety: - -We are especially concerned that the Department of Homeland Security's ability to secure our nation's borders is severely challenged. We are also disappointed that the immigration status of foreign nationals was not fully investigated during the Boston Marathon bombings, despite information suggesting that the suspects had entered the US illegally. - -Although DHS has already put in place many steps to ensure the security and integrity of immigration documents, these steps are not enough. The Department requires a lot more resources to -======================================== SAMPLE 464 ======================================== -This year we're bringing a new set of characters to the world of the Witcher. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings – Hearts of Stone, will be our first expansion for The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings. This expansion introduces the Blood & Wine storyline, which features a new adventure story that puts Geralt in control of a royal family and explores the conflicts of an age long ago when the nobles, the peasants, and the tribes all united against the Wild Hunt. - -Blood & Wine is a story from the perspective of the heir to one of the most important kingdoms in Northern Europe, the Kingdom of Toussaint. As your character progresses through a story spanning the course of The Witcher 2, they start the game with the knowledge that their father, King Foltest, is the sole survivor of a horrific event during the War of the First Lantern. - -The game is designed with this new knowledge of Toussaint's past in mind, leading us to create a game world that tells a story set in the same world but which offers unique possibilities for Geralt's progression that no other similar experience has before. - -The player will now be able to control a family of three members and a horse. Toussaint includes three different districts – the northern province of Arden, the southern province of Novigrad and the southern city-state of Velen – as well as a variety of additional content such as dungeons, mini-games, mini-adventures and adventures. - -For the first time in any Witcher game, our new character-building system and a deep character customization feature are introduced as part of the game, allowing the player to choose the appearance and skills of each of his two main characters without losing any of the gameplay benefits. - -Blood & Wine will be available in September for PlayStation 3 / Xbox 360 and on October 30th for PC.<|endoftext|>The last time my father tried to stop me from sleeping on the couch I fell asleep to the TV while he made dinner. He was tired. That's what kids do when they're not working. - -The TV was on when the doorbell rang. I thought it was that one uncle again that always wanted to show me his car. I opened the door to see a man in my dad's uniform. - -"What can I get you?" I wanted to ask. I always wanted to ask. Because the man took his hat off the table and put it on. This may have been a guy in my dad's uniform, but they didn't look like the people from that day with the big gold star in the corner. They didn't have hats anymore. They all had them when they were killed. - -That was the time someone on my dad's team died. So this man had a nice hat with feathers in it, and it looked expensive on a man who worked for our family. "Your uniform." I'd heard that line a thousand times. No matter what my dad's orders, I wasn't supposed to sleep on the couch. The man left, not saying anything. - -It wasn't the first time I'd heard it: "Your uniform." - -I turned on the TV to see if I could catch the last of the news. I never bothered. - -I was asleep the first night I got a chance. The family went on vacation. I went to bed. - -It was cold. I heard my Dad's voice. Not the voice I knew, the one that would warn me if I heard gunshots in the distance. The one that would explain why I didn't hear my name being called on the phone. "Geraldo?" - -"My name is Geraldo," I told him. - -"Can I put my hat down like I used to?" Maybe this was a different Geraldo? Maybe I could make him not kill my family. "I really don't want my hat on again." - -"Just get it over here, please. Come on." - -I did what he asked. Even after my Mom had made me put it on. I was supposed to sleep on the couch, and I got so tired that I thought my hair might fall out. - -I went on the road trip with Dad and told my Mom I was going to watch TV. I thought it was all going to be so normal, like my friends got married and I went to the beach. But I'd had the TV since I was old enough to remember, and it was the one thing that kept my sanity. I needed the TV like I needed a bath. - -The family went on vacation, and everyone took a shower in the family car. Geraldo got in. - -"Where you going, gee whiz?" He didn't wait for my answer, so I hopped in the chair between his legs. "Where you going? What are you going to do? Where you gonna live? Where you gonna live? You're getting married soon, Geraldo. You're going -======================================== SAMPLE 465 ======================================== -The following letter was sent to The Guardian by two anonymous women from various different organisations of varying backgrounds. They wish to remain anonymous for obvious reasons. - -We are members of the Women's Equality Party, and our party organiser, Sue Perkins, is currently writing a feminist manifesto, which is a key part of this. The manifesto is being completed at the moment, and while we are still in the process, it has been decided that this letter is a letter we do not want published. It is not designed as a direct attack, but does raise some legitimate questions, which we are happy to discuss at length if people are interested. - -We are not members of any particular political party, but the politics we are talking about are universal and part of the mainstream. In the US and UK, the majority of the politicians and government leaders in our societies are men. If we look at the role of women in these societies at a macro-level – in the workplace – we find that there are many structural advantages afforded to men, to be perfectly frank. For example, many workplaces do not provide for adequate break times, childcare facilities, or access to equal pay for equal work; we have seen a dramatic rise in men in the workforce over the past 100 years, and this shift has in turn made most women redundant. We are talking at a micro level, here, but the overall effects of this are that the bulk of the population's financial security and economic well-being is dependent on the gender of the main breadwinner, and when the majority of our work falls to men, we do not have the legal right to demand our fair share. - -We live in an extremely unequal society, and the gap between rich and poor is even wider. We know that the gender pay gap tends to be even bigger for people who come from upper-income households, for women in particular. This means that the fact that women earn less than men doesn't mean that they are being paid less; it actually means that their value in the workplace has decreased to a greater extent because of the structural disadvantages they have relative to men. - -Women are also more likely to be the main carer for children under 18. This means that we, as parents, have greater responsibilities – both mental and financial – than our male counterparts. This is not a sexist issue; it is human. - -We are feminists. We believe that women's equality is an inalienable human right; that men should not profit from this unequal balance of power in the workplace or society any more than they did at any previous stage of social evolution. Feminism has always had something to say against the social inequality caused by institutionalised gender inequality. It calls us to recognise that power is not the goal of male dominance; that it is the power of women to demand control over their own bodies and their own futures. We are proud of the feminist movement that arose in the 1960s, and which continues to grow, with the first all-women's conference taking place this time in London. It is our hope that this letter might contribute to discussion regarding the need for further social reforms aimed at correcting these inequalities, if the feminist movement is to continue to remain relevant. - -Our concerns about gender inequality have been raised often, and often by those who claim to support it. We want to challenge the prevailing view that feminist movements are always 'anti-men', or that any particular action it takes is aimed at creating conditions where women are 'equal' to men. When people call for more equality for women, they almost always mean that the rights and freedoms that men enjoy should be extended to women as well; that men should be free to pursue work, careers, and life in whatever manner they see fit. - -We have heard this in recent weeks with the growing focus surrounding equality legislation, with some MPs and activists claiming that we must create "lad's rights" legislation: i.e. laws which allow men to "have their cake and eat it". We are not against any particular outcome that the law could bring about, we are just against those who would create legal incentives. - -Some feminists seek to 'take back' the workplace by allowing women to more easily claim equal pay for equal work (i.e. the 'sexism' argument). We disagree, because we do not see how a workplace should be defined any longer; a place for work, a place for sex, a place for male supremacy. It needs to be a place for human beings, not men. It should be a place for men to work and live and create, and not a place where women are expected to be submissive, to be protected only from violence and abuse. - -In an interview for this film, Rebecca West said: "I don't want the right of women to do anything… to be able to sit at home and be a homemaker. I don't want women to be able to be an active member of society. That is what gives women their power – their agency." - -The majority of -======================================== SAMPLE 466 ======================================== -The National Institutes of Health will start paying a new price per month to the government for the drugs used to treat patients diagnosed with metastatic brain cancer, setting the price at $2,000 for an 11-month treatment. - -The cost of the drugs, known as CTL019, is the latest to rise under a 2012 law that allowed government-sponsored research on the drugs. The law, known as the BRAIN Act, aims to encourage researchers to find new ways to fight brain disorders, but some say the law has been too costly and cumbersome to achieve its goals. - -Some lawmakers called for an end to the government-sponsored drug research this year. But some lawmakers, including some Republicans — who control Congress — and Democrats, are still defending the law, and the cost of the research. - -"If you want to fight brain cancer, you must understand that the drugs that are used are only part of the answer," said Sen. Johnny Isakson, a Republican from Georgia and an original author of the law. "We must take the next step, and that is to bring down the price of life-saving medicines to those that many Americans can afford." - - -Dr. David Ludwig, the director of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), which funds most of the BRAIN Act research, said the cost of CTL019 is similar to the cost of other medications that the agency administers. CTL019 is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of the disease that causes a large proportion of patients with advanced cancers to die within six months.

"It's what we can control that affects what we pay in the U.S. dollar." - -Some experts suggest reducing the cost of the drug by lowering its effectiveness and requiring patients to take it for more than 10 months. - - -"This price hike will make access to CTL019 far more expensive, which will have a chilling effect on the development of new medicines for brain tumors," said Michael Steinberg, director of the health law program at the Center for Studying Drug Development at the law firm Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel. - -CDR Medical, which makes CTL019, has said in the past the drug was more effective than some medications available on the market. - -The company said that by 2015, 10 other drugs will begin competing for the same market that CTL019 will. - -"If you look at [our competitors], they are priced far higher.

The research team at Bristol and West of England have developed and tested their 'aerodynamic cycle design'. It is designed to increase the cyclist's aerodynamic efficiency by keeping the cyclist's center of gravity low, and to help the cyclist stay more upright, the team say. - -The study involved the use of a cycle simulator, which uses the rider's body form as the basis for a three dimensional computer model.

As a result, the court ruled: - -Apple's actions are in fact "totally insignificant in light of the totality of the relationship and history between the parties over the last decade, both during and after which the parties have shared in an astonishingly low percentage of the total profits." Therefore, "in light of their lack of relationship, there is no basis for this court to award Pegatron damages for these damages, which would be excessive, but for the fact that the relationship was so negligible and the damages so minimal as to amount to nothing." - -Apple isn't the only company under scrutiny after a jury failed to find it liable for allegedly helping cause the death of a teenage worker who worked for Apple's supplier, Apple-supplier Pegatron. - -The Associated Press has obtained an image of a memo, dated July 27, 2005, sent to Apple CEO Steve Jobs that reportedly revealed that Apple's suppliers were subject to "systematic anti-union activities" at the time, with Pegatron "the biggest target." As a result, "many suppliers are afraid to talk to us about anything other than the high union costs involved." The memo allegedly went on to say that Apple would "have a lot to lose" if it "suddenly had to pay some of the thousands of dollars we pay each consultant for their opinions about how to respond to labor questions." Apple has denied that the memo ever existed. - -The AP also has obtained internal documents that show that Apple and its subsidiaries "paid millions of dollars in bonuses and other compensation" to top union officials, according to "industry documents and a person with direct knowledge of the arrangements... The documents indicate that the payments were in addition to any cash bonuses the companies paid to workers for going on strike." - -Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<|endoftext|>The first two members of the Senate Intelligence Committee who had access to Hillary Clinton's unsecured personal email account, including those who were told to "strip and mask" classified emails, resigned on Wednesday. - -The announcement comes after a Washington Post report revealed Clinton's private server contained classified information, including the names of CIA officers involved in the hunt for Bin Laden, and other sensitive details. - -The Washington Post also said three State Department IT personnel were required to "strip and mask" the contents of Clinton's personal email account so that they would not see it. - -The Post report cited interviews with the three aides and an internal State Department audit of more than 31,000 emails Clinton sent during her first eight months as secretary of state. - -Clinton herself had been aware that there was classified information in her emails, though she told the FBI that she did not "recall receiving any emails she thought should not be on an unclassified system" at the time. Clinton did delete more than 30,000 emails from her personal server before handing that over to the State Department for preservation. - -Despite this, at least two aides whose access to Clinton's unsecured server was limited have been shown to have mishandled classified information, and that includes Bryan Pagliano, who set up Clinton's server, and Huma Abedin, who is Clinton's close aide and a confidante. - -Pagliano claimed he had not done any work related to work connected to Clinton's State Department. Abedin was found to have provided "work-related" services in an email about her "favorite places to shop" in Washington. - -Pagliano, who was granted immunity by the Justice Department as part of its investigation into Clinton's email scandal, did receive a "show cause" letter in May from the FBI requesting he provide information concerning certain email systems that he says are used by Platte River Networks, an IT firm with ties to Clinton's campaign. - -An attorney for Clinton has insisted that her use of a private server while secretary of state was "authorized by the Department of State. And the State Department confirmed that." - -"No one even knew the server was being used by Clinton until the New York Times wrote about it," Democratic congressman Elijah Cummings said in a statement. - -"And now, after this FBI report, all the evidence reveals that, instead of operating solely for personal convenience, this machine was being used to conduct official business." - -Cummings said if Clinton did use a private server for -======================================== SAMPLE 468 ======================================== -The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995 - - -Quick Walkthrough [ edit ] - -Detailed Walkthrough [ edit ] - -Stuck in the Tombstone Quarry [ edit ] - -The location of the tombstone quarry is in the northwest corner of the map. At the bottom of the quarry on the west side of the quarry you will find a large rock that is difficult to climb. The stone has an open section on one side, which has enough exposed wooden beams to drop down through. However, the other side is protected by a ledge that is too high to climb out of. - -The best place to go first is the ledge, and jump down onto the second level of rock. Make sure to grab onto the wooden beams. This will enable you to reach the first level of stone, which is not protected by the ledge, and reach the rock floor which is completely protected by the ledge. As you jump up the ledge you will notice that the lower portion of the rock and the area just beneath your feet is covered in boulders. - -A Small-Trouble Solution [ edit ] - -After getting past the boulder wall, grab the wooden beam as quickly as possible, and drop down to the bottom of the large rock ledge. If you fall below the level where the stone floor is protected from the ledge by the edge of the large rock ledge, your fall will kill you. Use the wooden beam on the exposed wooden beam under the platform; use it as a stepping stone for those who have no tools. This way allows you to jump across the exposed, large rock ledge and reach the area below where the ladder leads out. - -Use the lower platform. To the left is a stone ladder. To the right is a door leading south. There is a stone statue on the first floor level of the area. There is also a lever on the lower level in a chest. Pull the lever when you are ready to go through the door, and head to the south-southwest exit door. - -Head out on the wooden beams, then drop down to the ledge. Head to the north-west, and follow the stone passage until you reach a ramp. Follow the ramp to the south and you will come to a platform. There is a chest below you; retrieve the key from the chest to complete the quest. Note that the chest is locked and that a key will be needed to open it. - -Notes [ edit ] - -If you are not wearing any armor and do not have the Sneak perk, you are unable to complete this quest, as the chest is protected by a locked wooden beam. However, to get out of the situation without using any tools, simply run as quickly as possible away from the pillar the chest is on, avoiding the beam. The beam should be above the chest and will not damage you. Note that the beam in the chest may be replaced by the stone on the second level of the stone platform upon getting past the wooden beam. - -There are several different ways to get to the exit to the tombstone quarry. The easiest strategy is the jump to the ledge with the exposed wooden beam. From there, follow the rock passage until you reach the metal door. This is possible by jumping off the lower edge of the metal door and running to the west of the door. Alternatively, there is a shortcut that requires no keys, but it will require you to travel a couple of miles south-southwest of Riften. You can do this by traveling to the village of Winterhold and then traveling along the Riverwood road to the small bridge (one block north of the Riften Watch Tower) which crosses the river. Once on the bridge, walk south a short distance to a wooden walkway and walk to the end of the walkway (you can get back on the walkway by approaching the stone platform from the south and facing north). Use the metal door nearby to exit Winterhold, and you will have traveled a total of about 2 miles by the time you come to Riften. You should have plenty of experience running, especially if you use the Whirlwind Sprint shout; you shouldn't have any trouble reaching Riften. This method also works through the doors on the northern side of the stone platform and into the tombstone quarry. - -The tombstone quarry is accessible to everyone with a skill of 17 in the Alteration skill and the ability to cast Alteration spells. This is not the case with the quest, "Forgotten Wisdom". - -During the quest you may see a group of Nordic skeletons in front of the stone ledge. This is a harmless illusion - the skeletons do not count towards the quest. - -Bugs [ edit ]<|endoftext|>Welcome to the new year of 2016!

The game takes place during the reign of King Sigurd and features -======================================== SAMPLE 469 ======================================== -A lot of people are still struggling with the meaning of the words "downtrend" and "upswing" when looking at the performance by the Dow Jones Industrial Average. For example, an article earlier this week on CNBC's "Fast Money" blog called Dow: A U.S. Downtrend and Not an Upward Trend. - -My research, along with a bit of analysis, suggests that the most accurate way to define Dow's downtrend is the fact that it happened in the late 1930s: - -And yes, the graph below shows the Dow's annualized gain from 1929 to 1939. If we were using a simple up-and-down trend to measure Dow's performance since then, Dow would have moved from a high in 1929 to near the end of World War II in 1944. Dow would then have started a new up-and-down pattern, with the dot above 1938, but would subsequently lose its way again. - -The fact is, the Dow's performance since then, along with the long-term uptrend, is exactly what a market uptrend and downtrend look like. When Dow is up (or down), it's due to the upward movement of the market. The downtrend, on the other hand, is due to market forces such as the decline in the supply of energy, or the introduction of new products, or other cyclical forces. Dow is still in its up-and-down downtrend at the moment, but we might expect to see the Dow slowly moving back into the downtrend once the first quarter is over. - -One final note. When we first covered this topic back in April, I noted that the Dow was more likely to come back up (in an uptrend) than down (in a downtrend). At the time, I mentioned that Dow might be more vulnerable to a short-term downturn, but I was still willing to hold Dow in my portfolio. I'm no longer willing to make that claim.<|endoftext|>About - -The original game for our Kickstarter campaign!

This second read did not disappoint: There's so much to love. - - -I first saw the book in the late summer of 2015 about 20,000 miles away—in Turkey, where I was on my way to learn how to be a doctor. In my spare time I was reading the "real" medical literature with the hopes that some of it would find an application to my studies at the University of Chicago. However, the book I was reading was, with the exception of one character, not an actual medical book. It was The Great Pandemic by Peter Beaumont, who has come a long way since that first reading. His writing is crisp, clean, and fast-paced; his characters are vivid and believable. Even the prose, written in the third person, is crisp and succinct, and his sentences are always a great use of ellipses. - - -There is so much in "The Great Pandemic" that I haven't yet fully wrapped my head around. I still don't know if Peter is doing fiction from a medical perspective or if he's just doing the same thing science fiction writers have always done—writing about the present but with magic-based, future-tech sci fi elements woven in. - - -In any case, these "realistic" elements of the book really do add to and enhance the story. Beaumont is so deft when it comes to pacing, and the way he draws you into the book gives you a sense that there's something greater that's going on here--at a level we've never experienced; you become a part of the story. It's almost like being a part of a movie. - - -Beaumont's writing style is so well-rounded that there are -======================================== SAMPLE 470 ======================================== -HELPING YOU UNDERSTAND - - -As some questions have become more sensitive, we have created a FAQ page.

Washington ended up finishing in the top-three in the division, but missed the playoffs altogether. - -"It is something new that he's brought to Washington," Capitals forward Troy Brouwer said of Trotz after the team was swept at home by the New York Islanders on Saturday. "He doesn't say much, but he's done a great job of getting the guys in the right rhythm and stuff like that." - -With Trotz hired, it wasn't immediately clear who would take over as Washington's coach following Oates' dismissal. - -Alex Ovechkin, Evgeny Kuznetsov and Phil Kessel all said recently that they'd be interested in remaining with the organization beyond this season if there was a possibility of another playoff run coming to Washington. Coach Barry Trotz has said he would like that to be the case, and is confident in his ability to turn things around. - -Trotz joined the Capitals midway through the 2014-15 season and has only two weeks of coaching experience, having been promoted to the top job on Jan. 9. He helped lead Russia to two gold medals at the 2014 Sochi Olympics before returning to his native Sweden for a coaching career. - -He has appeared in a total of 38 career NHL games, with a record of 43-56-19. Trotz appeared in the Capitals' first playoff game in 2009, the postseason in 2008 and 2011, and the club's second round exit in 2010. He was the NHL's third most-winning coach in 2004 and 2005 with Nashville and Toronto, respectively, before landing in Washington.

It's a list that makes you want to write some books or become the next famous actor or politician. - -The problem with the list is that it also makes you want to die. - -The most popular item on the list is a picture of Steve Jobs. This is because he got on the list by being at least 10 times as influential as everyone else. - -Jobs was, of course, very talented. He was also incredibly ambitious and highly driven. It's hard to imagine that any of that made him any less influential than almost everyone else on the list. - -The problem is that he was also incredibly successful. To put it in perspective: There are two people on the list who have had twice as great of an impact in the world as Jobs. - -There is one person on the list who is at least 10 times worse for influence as Steve Jobs. - -This is -======================================== SAMPLE 471 ======================================== -For a long time, I have used the word "joke" to describe something that is absurdly stupid. One of the reasons for this has been because my mother taught me that there are things in life that are so ridiculous that you should think very, very hard about them before you make another joke about them. But a joke has come up that is, I think, about the last thing that my mother taught me when she learned the value of thinking hard. It's the joke that is so ridiculous—it is both utterly predictable and completely insane. It is the joke about a man who was convicted of murdering his wife, the mother of nine children—and for whom his victim's family and the police worked hard to have him sentenced to die. It's the joke about a state agency that has become so deeply embedded and powerful that it is now a part of the fabric of the society it regulates and regulates to protect and serve. It's the joke about a company that has created a culture in which employees are made to believe that it's their job to lie to customers, and the culture that was created was a culture of dishonesty. It's also the joke about a man who decided to give his life to the state. - -The joke about the man who made a living killing his wife. Photo: AP - -I have always thought, over the years, of how ridiculous that the state, in the name of justice, would put a man to death for a crime he supposedly should not have committed. But it occurred to me that it is actually possible, that people could seriously argue, that this was a just and reasonable sentence. If the judge were to rule that for someone like me, for example, who has never even had an impulse to murder anyone, that a death sentence was just and reasonable in the way that this man was sentenced, in my mind, he would be wrong. But I was not prepared to give up yet another hobby that I have had, to admit to myself that this is, in fact, the case. - -I began doing more and more research into this case, looking at documents from the case. And in doing so I also began to look harder at the facts of the case, the evidence in the case. I saw that I was aghast at how, for what we now recognize were outrageous and unjustified claims, the defendant was convicted. So one day I opened up e-mails that I had not received from myself. And there it was--the e-mail from my mother. It was a long e-mail, but it told her story in a simple and clear and eloquent way. She wrote, "I know what you want to do. But the truth is you have done nothing to deserve this." She continued, "You have never killed anyone. You were not even convicted of any murder charges. It is beyond comprehension for a family who has lost eight members to murder or accident over the years, including you, to have you convicted of murder. It is beyond comprehension for you to claim that for this you have earned a death sentence. But as a matter of justice and fairness you must die in prison, or we will fight it until you are freed." - -She concluded, "You are a man who has violated the fundamental human rights of a fellow human being, you are a criminal in the justice system on the rampage, you are not worthy of any mercy and, if you are ever released, you will kill again immediately." I felt a deep sense of despair. I also felt that this kind of experience—where you feel you are being lied to and betrayed and your fundamental human rights are being violated every second of the time for something that has never happened to you before—that you are so desperate to find any way of not being punished that you are willing to sacrifice everything. - -It was at that place where I decided I needed to stop telling jokes. - -I knew I wasn't the only person like me in this situation. It was easy to feel that way. I was talking about it with my friends and I was writing articles about it. And it was hard to come to terms with this fact that I had become the object of a joke. It wasn't right. It wasn't funny. - -"It takes a special kind of person, a unique kind of person, to be in my position." - -It took a special kind of person, a unique kind of person, to be in my position. I knew I had gone down a slippery slope—I had crossed the fine line. But in that situation, I felt this very deep sense of desperation that something might very well happen to me. It was the first time I felt the urge to take the action needed to change the outcome. I wanted justice. I wanted the justice system to get it right, to take the time to understand what had happened, to be willing to take a fresh look at the evidence. - -As I began to rethink and examine all my feelings about the joke -======================================== SAMPLE 472 ======================================== -Riot police stand near a barricade on Dec. 11, 2016, following clashes in the center of Athens in which several journalists and photographers were injured and a protester was killed.

The results are reported in the Oct. 8 online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. - -The researchers, including Stanford postdoctoral researcher Christopher F. Henshilwood, were puzzled by unusual, ancient plankton that seemed to be drifting in the North Atlantic Ocean for almost 6 billion years. - -The plankton are called "lobopods" and their diversity was previously recorded as the highest anywhere on Earth. The only other record of "floating" plankton in the ocean was in Antarctic waters, but these plankton are very rare, making their distribution difficult to study in detail. - -"Many previous investigations have been limited to studying very -======================================== SAMPLE 474 ======================================== -Rent and housing is probably the first things that come to mind when you think of what a successful designer is.

Baynham then got into the vehicle and drove away, he said. - -In addition to hitting the door lock, Baynham also hit another vehicle and "was causing some type of damage to the vehicle," Frasier said. - -The vehicle was parked outside the Sun Naturals restaurant, located at 3501 N. Alamogordo Blvd., at about 9 p.m. Friday when an employee reported that the car was still there. A resident opened the door to get the car keys. - -As officers arrived, Baynham emerged from inside the locked vehicle and ran from the scene. - -Police said that Baynham was found covered in blood at the Sun Naturals, where she admitted to having had several drinks during the night and having been drinking heavily, Frasier said. They learned that Baynham had been inside the car for an extended period of time, leaving the keys to the vehicle in the vehicle and not returning to get the keys to it, he said. - -Officers arrived and arrested her in the parking lot, and she was taken to a local hospital for treatment, the officer said. When he tried to locate her, Baynham refused to comply with police calls to come out of the vehicle. - -As a precaution, officers went to the Sun Naturals, where Baynham was found in her car, the officer said. The door was locked, and officers were unable to reach her with a key. The car was parked on the street and officers were still unable to locate her. - -A local police K-9 was used to attempt to locate her, but Baynham refused to come out to follow him, Frasier said. At some point, another driver called 911 to report that she had hit the car in her attempt to leave the parking lot.<|endoftext|>The new season has begun, with new clubs coming online and their first match being played.

Taylor wrote a long post for TAI last week exploring what LeBron James is doing in the 2017 NBA season. In some ways, it was a bit of an understatement. - -James has been so good that he's not merely a "player in disguise" anymore. By any measure, he's the best player in basketball, easily besting his previous career-bests. He's been the MVP of the All-Star Game, the most valuable player of the annual game (at 25.8 ppg) and a leading candidate for the league MVP, all in less than a half season. - -"I think the only question left is: is LeBron the best player in the world?" writes Taylor. "I think he may well have passed Andre Roberson as the best player in the world." - -As for the MVP of the Western Conference, I wrote about it three times before this season: I'm picking Paul George. The Pacers have been a league top-five team for five months and they've got to be considered the favorites to win their first playoff series since their 2008 title. - -I thought George deserved to be named that MVP. He's played every minute of every game while having a monster season, ranking sixth in the NBA in scoring. The only players averaging more points per game this season are the Rockets' James Harden, the Warriors' Curry and the Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard. When we talk about the MVP of the West, this is the guy to look for. The Pacers beat the Warriors on Thursday and have a good chance Wednesday to beat the Warriors at home in Game 3. - -The last time the Pacers finished the season with a better record than Golden State, in 2014-15, George scored 50 points and hit four threes in the series. In this series, the difference is just two games, with the Pacers playing the Cavaliers just twice. They're a better team than they were this time last year. They're certainly better than the Warriors who had to rebuild from a top-five playoff seed to make it out of the Western Conference playoffs. I think George holds the edge on a technicality: it has to be Curry, with James as a distant second. - -On the other hand, I can't leave it at George because of the way he has played this season. The Pacers are an unstoppable force that can run on a team (even one lacking talent). That's the one big advantage on the Warriors that is hard for them to overcome: their offense struggles against the Pacers. - -The Pacers have held teams to 87 points per game in this year's series, the fourth lowest in the NBA. They've scored 100 points three times, twice in games in which they were dominant and once in a game for which the Warriors were outscoring them by 26 points in the second half. - -That's pretty incredible, but it's not the only thing that the Pacers do well in this series. - -Pacers center Al Jefferson is a monster defensively, averaging 14.5 points and a block. He's averaging 3.3 offensive rebounds and 2.5 steals. He's also the only player averaging more than three assists on the Pacers. Those are big components of their defensive game that are missing from last year's team. - -Last year, the Pacers had the best defense in the NBA, according to ESPN's Real Plus/Minus, with the third best mark on the road. This year, the Pacers have the worst mark in the NBA, a net rating of 24.6. - -In terms of rebounding average, the Pacers are a solid team this season but the Warriors are the first team to hold them to two low double-doubles this season. On offense, the Pacers have found success in forcing the issue on the fast break, hitting a new low mark on the stat sheet with a net rating of -36, with two teams doing that to the Pacers this year. The Warriors are a pretty efficient offense, hitting a high percentage of three-pointers and converting at a high percentage of their free throws this season. - -The key for the Pacers will be how they defend. The Pacers were solid on defense a season ago, allowing 95.9 points per 100 possessions while ranking fifth overall in points allowed per 100 possessions. They ranked third in points allowed per 100 possessions, but allowed 108.2 overall and 10th in three-point percentage allowed, so they did a terrific job at limiting their own scoring chances, which were a strength of their game last season. - -This year, the Pacers are allowing 98.6 points per 100 possessions, fourth worst in the NBA. By any measure, that's a terrible defensive rating, but it's not quite as bad as the offensive line of the Warriors, who average 103 points per 100 possessions. - -Last season, the Pacers were a better defense than you think, at least relative to just their opponents. They allowed 100 more points than predicted, but also more than the Warriors -======================================== SAMPLE 476 ======================================== -I have received a lot of emails since this comic was posted and people have been wondering about how I am able to draw, I get most of my inspiration from when I am driving around and listening to music.

I hope you'll enjoy it. As usual, I'm open to the community feedback so feel free to leave any comments below. Let me know what you think. If you have any kind of feature ideas I would really appreciate that as I love adding more to it. - -The UI was a bit more complex than last year. For those who don't know what happened I've decided to introduce the UI for both a larger community and to create a more focused UI for new player content. The UI has two modes, one for the player (who has never played the game) and one for the developer. I think it helps clarify what needs to be done in game and which areas are more important. I've had players asking me about different elements and I hope it gives us a better idea of what are the things most important for a specific player. You'll have to play around to find the right one for you. - -The Developer UI is completely open for any user to submit any kind of idea that is more about the game and less about the design. I hope people will be able to contribute to it and take things to the next level in the game.<|endoftext|>An international team of researchers (Lei et al., 2015 & 2016) has used a combination of molecular, genomics and biological approaches to identify a new human protein that may be important for muscle regeneration. The researchers, led by Dr. David Liu from the Stanford University School of Medicine and Center for Gene Therapy at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, found that the protein, MYOG, that is expressed during the healing process controls the proliferation of muscle stem cells in the body and may prevent overgrowth of other cells. - -"Our work suggests that muscle regeneration can be controlled by specific signaling molecules, including MYOG, and that a therapy may be possible using an experimental drug to block MYOG as a means of avoiding muscle loss by controlling the inflammatory reaction after injury." explained Dr. Liu who also is affiliated in the Stanford Department of Medicine and Center for Gene Therapy - -"Although the mechanism remains unclear, the use of an experimental therapy, such as anti-MYOG antibodies, may provide new treatment options to treat conditions where muscle cells are overgrown," says Dr. Liu. "The aim is to gain insight into the basic mechanisms behind recovery." - -The researchers, led by Dr. Liu, studied tissue samples collected from injured muscle in the mice. They treated the samples with anti-MYOG antibodies and found an increased growth of satellite cells (smaller specialized cells) in the muscles of the animals. These satellite cells appear to help regenerate and help restore tissue health as damaged muscles recover. - -"We've already shown that satellite cells are capable of generating satellite cell precursors, which is an important step for muscle regeneration," says Dr. Liu. "However, we are excited the fact that the treatment of our muscle tissues with anti-MYOG antibodies appears to allow for more efficient muscle regeneration." - -"The use of specific immune system targeting agents to slow muscle regeneration and improve tissue function is a promising direction to focus on, since we want to develop drugs that can be targeted to restore a tissue's original functionality, and thereby prevent or diminish the loss of muscle tissue," he adds. - -To achieve their goals, the authors of the paper are using a new approach to analyze and understand satellite cell activity. Specifically, they used a combination of immunohistochemical analysis and molecular and genetic approaches to identify the exact molecules and cellular targets responsible for the ability of satellite cells to differentiate into muscle precursor cells. - -Previous studies, led by Dr. Liu in China had looked at MYOG in specific patients to identify a molecular receptor in a receptor called TGF-beta/myostatin that is activated by the hormone MYOG. However, Dr. Liu's group wanted to know if this was the only pathway for MYOG and whether other mechanisms were also involved in muscle stem cell regeneration. Their laboratory study suggests it may be. Dr. Liu's laboratory recently identified additional receptors that are activated by MYOG that are not shown to be activated by TGF-beta/myostatin. - -"By examining gene expression patterns in tissues collected from mice treated with anti-MYOG antibodies and muscles obtained from injured muscles, we found that satellite cell proliferation and differentiation were not inhibited by this experimental therapy," said Dr. Liu.

The Postal Service and other postal agencies have been under pressure to reduce their finances as a growing number of mail carriers retire early, and the Postal Service faces future obligations to fund health care costs for some employees. - -The agency recently hired a consultant to evaluate its financial position, and this month began collecting data and analyzing data on its financial performance to begin to determine its ability to stay financially sound. The Postal Service also plans to use information to create a comprehensive plan for future restructuring. - -The proposed cuts to the Postal Service could come as soon as next month if a bill that includes the USPS plan becomes law, according to congressional aides. - -A House appropriations bill includes $15 billion in funding for the Postal Service, and would add the postal proposal for a reduction to the agency's budget. One GOP aide said there's an indication that the bill could come up for a vote in early June. - -Democratic leaders in both the House and Senate have said they oppose the postal plan and that Congress can find another solution for the agency through legislation. - -If the proposal goes forward, it could cause problems in fiscal 2018, as part of the Postal Service's budget, the legislation contains spending cuts to the agency that would offset what the restructuring might cost. - -The House bill, sponsored by Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., would change how the Postal Service does business by reducing costs and encouraging more in-house service. - -The post office would need to find savings up to $5.8 billion over a decade, if it's approved in its current form. That's a substantial amount of money for a nonprofit agency that is funded through regular tax on people and sales. - -Schumach declined to share the postal agency's annual budget, but said it's been increasing as the economy continues to grow, a trend that the department has seen as well over the last couple of decades.

(For me it's the Trump problem). If we can't even find a willing candidate to do anything about North Korea, we should be very worried. After the last election, I started to wonder: does the U.S. even have the will to change Kim Jong Un from an irrational power base to a rational power base? When Kim has to deal with a leader whose own country is threatening to nuke him, does the Kim have the tools required to handle this situation in a rational way? - -As I listened to last night's Republican debate, I thought about this question: how does a crazy guy like Kim Jong Un keep his country together? - -I came to the conclusion that Kim Jong Un has two types of troops. He has regular soldiers, and he has elite forces. The elite troops are the ones who pull off big nuclear war-games. In recent years, North Korea has carried out nuclear war-games on an unprecedented scale. The North's first "nuclear war-game" in 2009 came in response to U.S. naval exercises off south Korea. In the current war-game, North Korean nuclear missiles have a range of between 1,500 miles and 3,000 miles, and could reach the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam. - -So, the elite troops must have more than a military training program. After all, it seems only natural that the elite soldiers have to be smarter, more resourceful, and more resourceful enough to handle nuclear weapons. Kim Jong-un would never have let his people die of starvation if they weren't better trained, more resourceful, and more resourceful than the rest of the country. I think this is the secret of North Korea's success: the elite members, who are most likely to survive the famine, are the ones who are the most willing to use nuclear weapons. They must be good at making decisions and executing plans. - -When Kim was young, he was a young, stupid, and greedy boy. He was afraid of doing anything wrong — which meant he couldn't be very good at anything or very smart, both of which are essential for success in life. - -But after the death of his father, Kim Jong-il, and the success of the famine, Kim Jong-un rewrote his education from childhood up. He focused his energies not on surviving in a survivalist scenario, or even on getting a good job as is the norm in North Korea, but on improving his own image in the eyes of the outside world. He wanted to be popular in America because that is where the rich Americans go, to be popular in Asia because that is where the rich Asians go, and to keep his country running smoothly because he was confident that there would be another chance to run it later in life. - -If you can convince a dictator that "the people in power are running the country," he can change. North Korea does not really trust American military might. When there was an American war on their border, they did not attack. When the U.S. sent in nuclear weapons in 1999, they did not attack. So North Korea is not an easy country to change. I think this is why North Korea's elite troops always seem to come out on top. - -But even if Kim Jong Un could somehow persuade his people that they had to obey him, I wouldn't be too worried. Kim Jong-un must be pretty good at running his country. If he were bad at it, the rest of his country wouldn't have had to suffer so much. You could imagine a scenario where the elite troops could be convinced to make their move. They wouldn't do so blindly, of course. They would need some intelligence that it might be a bad move. - -The elite troops would need some intelligence that it might be a bad move. - -Kim might also be scared that his elite troops might be executed. He would prefer them to be killed over captured. That might be his choice, but this is not a good way to handle a leader. It's a terrible way to handle a country. If Kim wants to see his elite troops executed he's not going to just ignore that possibility. If he does have a choice between executing the elite troops and making his country great again, he wants to see his elite troops executed. Even if he is completely wrong about this, he wants this to happen. - -Now I'm thinking about what we should do if Kim decides to execute them. How do we make peace? Should we give up on North Korea? Can an idealist imagine that Kim Jong-un has a new approach? He probably doesn't. Maybe peace with North Korea is going to be a little difficult, but as long as Kim Jong-un is irrational and irrational people will die. I am not quite sure what my answer is about how to get rid of this threat, but I do have a guess.

She was at the heart of the influential, well-connected, high-caste media and her influence is still felt today. - -Her sudden and dramatic move from the city to the UK in 1983-84 where she set up an independent media house in Brighton, where her son worked, brought to an end her illustrious career and was followed by a series of other career interruptions that put an end to her life before she could complete the unfinished legacy she had in the UK. - -This interview has been conducted, edited and translated by Dr Arup Chawla, formerly a journalist in Delhi, who has followed her career for years. The views expressed are solely those of the author. - -Who is Kavita Krishnan? - -She didn't really exist. She was just a name, and she was someone you passed on information to… she was more of a myth in the form of a character. But there is this story, about how she was born as a girl, who was married once, had a child and was sent back to the village in Bihar. Her first husband left her and she became a stay-at-home-mum and stayed close to home. Her second husband died and she went on to have three more children with the same man. But this is the kind of tale that comes as a shock to people – that they get married once and they get divorced, that they have three children and they divorce. And she had all these relationships, all these people all over the world, every time she moved. - -Why did she leave India? - -The first relationship Kavita had with a foreign journalist was with Mr Thomas Bearden in New York. He didn't go as far as proposing marriage, but I find that intriguing. He sent her a letter, which she had to read after being married and she said: "Oh Thomas, this is very exciting." She got married to an Indian journalist. She had a relationship with an Italian journalist. She had a relationship with an Australian journalist. She had a relationship with an Australian diplomat. So when this letter of Mr Bearden arrived after she married, it is very difficult to know how she decided to go back to India to live with her parents. - -I think she realised that there was something wrong with what she was doing. So why is the first story about her marriage so far flung in New York, and why was another story about her relationship with an Australian journalist thrown out of the country? And why do you find the relationship with the European journalist to be so problematic? - -Why did she leave her parents' house and go back to the village, only to have her parents send her back again? I think she realized that there was something wrong with what she was doing. So why is the first story about her marriage so far flung in New York, and why was another story about her relationship with an Australian journalist thrown out of the country? - -How did you go about researching this book to get so many details right, and how did you write it? - -When I was working as a journalist in Delhi, I used to follow some of the other journalists and how they were working and how their careers developed. There was another journalist who I used to follow – he didn't seem to have a particular style. As I got to know him, I thought that he was very interesting, I got hold of his story a couple of years later from a British newspaper. He was then working in Australia as a journalist, and he was writing stories for other newspapers. And I got hold of his notes and I went back to see what he had been talking about in a series of notebooks. I started reading his notes and it was the very interesting thing, he wrote notes in Bengali and English and Hindi – it was one of the first times that I had had any linguistic input into these notes. I asked him how he'd travelled across two continents. I started to understand what his journey was like. And it was an amazing story. He had travelled to India just in the last 12 months from the time he left India in 1983, just under one year. He was working on stories for the newspapers in India at the time. His father – he also wrote stories for newspapers in India around the same time, but he did not go as far for the newspapers. - -After I worked as a journalist and after the notes came with the story of his travels across two continents, I began to gather material, I had access to all kinds of material, and I began to gather everything that the other journalists had written about him and where he was working. - -Then, after having the first draft of the book a few months ago, I went back onto it because the story -======================================== SAMPLE 481 ======================================== -[oldembed src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/n1KqXsK2Z4?rel=0" width="425" height="239" resize="1" fid="21"] - -You know: That time that the New York Times posted its front page banner for the night of April 4 while Republicans in Congress were trying to pass the sequester? - -But it's not just the front page banner. - -Today, the Times' front page has a story that looks like this: - -What does this tell you about the Times? - -First, that the Times thinks the sequester has some bad consequences; even though it doesn't call it that. - -Second, that the Times expects anyone to believe that the sequester is a mistake (even though it isn't). - -That's one thing the Times didn't seem to be able to hide: Republicans' intent to slash defense (and thus, domestic) spending at all costs. - -But now, it's telling readers that the sequester is a good idea. - -I mean, the headline says, "Budget battle looms over $1.2 trillion spending cut." And the rest of the story seems to believe it... - -That's really not a good message for those of us in the military and non-military industries. I don't know anyone who is a fan of sequestration that likes to read about it. We have to tell the public that the only good reason for a sequester is in order to do something really, really crazy: to take military spending and put it on par with domestic spending.<|endoftext|>You do not have javascript enabled. - -The site is designed to work without javascript, however some functionality is still available.

They despised them. They hated that our leaders would compromise and sign things they didn't believe in. Our leaders—like most of the people I knew at all levels—had an obvious hatred of the government, and a sense of entitlement toward it. They viewed it as a way to get something out of us. - -But even that was an overstatement. Most of our leaders didn't feel like our leaders. Their hatred for our leaders often came out of a love for ourselves—or at least their perception of love for themselves. - -I was born in 1944, in the shadow of World War II, the year the Korean War started. The war had ended in 1953—but after Korea the Americans became increasingly aggressive toward China. I heard the constant warnings on Radio to always be ready and have guns. It was like living in a time bomb, bombarded in ways that had nothing to do with the war. I always thought that if I got shot at, I would probably die. - -So I didn't think any less of the leaders. They got it. In fact, it was their war. It was hard for people who understood war to understand that we were fighting against our own government. We all thought they were fighting against Communists. - -But in fact, the Chinese government was fighting against us. And the Vietnamese government was fighting against the Communists. In fact, we were fighting the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese Army. But they weren't fighting anyone we knew. They were fighting us. - -After we lost the war, Americans went to war for a new kind of war. They were fighting the Cold War. The Cold War was between two ideologies: communism versus capitalism. It was between different versions of nationalism—between the Soviets and the United States. It became a conflict all Americans wanted. It began on the Korean peninsula in 1950 and escalated as it went on. In fact, the Cold War, including the Korean war, is what gave the US its military power, and the most intense nuclear competition. It was the worst of all possible worlds, in which you always had an enemy. - -The idea that American and Soviet nuclear weapons could destroy the world was always shocking to people back home. After Korea, many people in this country still didn't believe it, even after the Russians tested nuclear weapons. We got it. - -As for the Vietnamese, they were never really fighting the Communists. They were fighting to keep their country from collapsing. What would have happened if it failed? The same thing that happened after Pearl Harbor in 1941. America declared war on Germany and Japan. - -If the Americans came in with a real war effort, they would have won. But they didn't, which is part of why they were so reluctant about fighting the Communist countries in Vietnam and elsewhere. - -That wasn't a very popular policy with Americans at the end of World War II.

Welcome to my personal website and I am so excited to share this with you! So for this post I thought I would share what I think are the five best sexiest bikini bodies around, in no particular order. Of course, this is just my opinion and is not scientific. For all you science nerds out there, you will have to wait a little more because I am going to get right down to it. - -Before I start I just want to say that I have only included girls who have at least one or two photos that I feel look absolutely amazing. This list will be updated as I get more pictures. Also, all you ladies out there, I don't look down upon you or anything. I'm simply showing you what I believe are the sexiest bikini bodies around, and if you agree, keep on checking in because I will keep growing this list. - -If you have your own list, please share with us! - -5. Adriana Lima - - -I really only included Adriana Lima because I feel like she is totally flawless, but for the sake of this list I wanted to include the other Brazilian bombshells that have a more athletic look. I don't know if they are the same girls, but look at how similar they are! I mean, there are just two big differences: Adriana was filmed a year ago and the girls don't have the same facial expressions that Lima has. If you have some Adriana pictures to give us a second opinion, that would be great! - -4. Jennifer Lawrence - - -Look at this body. Look at what Jennifer Lawrence has achieved in the last two years to just look like she did in her 20s. Look at her thighs. Look at her face. This girl has so many muscles. This woman has gained just about 200 pounds in a relatively short period of time, but not only that, but she is a super model. I love her body, I love her figure, I love her face. I will give you a warning next time though. You will be so busy looking at Jennifer Lawrence's body that you might forget you're looking at a very pretty girl. - -3. Mila Kunis - - -I will be honest, I knew I was never going to include Mila Kunis's body if it wasn't this sexy. I'm not saying that I think Mila Kunis is a bad looking girl, but I feel like she could be more attractive for me to take this picture. I know she is super cute, but I think if I were to stand behind her, I might just look like an idiot. Plus, as I've mentioned a million times before, if I had to choose between Mila Kunis and someone else, it would probably be this beauty. - -2. Gisele Bundchen - - -Gisele is one of those girls that you just know is hot, and she has achieved something that very few people can say they have accomplished at any point in time. She has the body of a model, but the body of a super model. There are very few people that have both the body and the style of a super model, but in Gisele's case, she is both. With her perfect figure, long legs and amazing figure, I would really love to have a chance to take this picture with her. - -1. Sofia Vergara - - -Here is a beautiful picture of Sofia Vergara. You might be saying, why are you looking at her? What is wrong with you? Well, look at those tits! They are massive, big firm, and if you can see them well enough in this picture I feel like just maybe she would be in a couple of the top ten bikini body lists right now. - -The best bikini bodies are not built from the inside out, but from the outside in. You just need the right clothes and the right personality to complete you. You also need to have fun and be yourself. And these bikini bodies just add to that! The girls of Gossip Girl certainly embody this perfectly. I'm not saying I love every single one of them, but there is nothing that can go wrong with them so they all deserve a spot on this list as does Jennifer Lawrence. I think she is the sexiest model that is walking the planet, but I think Adriana Lima just edges out her in a lot of ways. Who would win in a face-to-face contest? And that is actually the question I ask myself, every day. All you guys out there, what is your opinion on the five bikini bodies? Which ones are your favorites? And where exactly should we go to find some of these girls? You guys rock. - -What body do you think is sexy?

In 2014 the Treasury added "China's Silk Road Fund, which is an endowment of the Central Government of the People's Republic of China; China's Xinjiang Human Rights Protection Unit, an entity established to enforce human rights; and the Ministry of Public Security, the National People's Congress, and other agencies." - -In total, there are a total of 22 countries included on the list – with the State Department acknowledging that all countries that are "state sponsors of terrorism" are likely to be on the list. - -Here are some of the countries who managed to make this year's list: - -Iran - -While the U.S. government has been targeting Iran's financial system and banking system, this year's "National Security Priority" is focused on the country's "financial and commercial sectors." A list of entities which are in the "financial and commercial sectors" includes: Bank Mellat, Bank Mitint, Bank Saderat, Bank Rahimat, KKG Bank, Tanchang Bank, Bicom, National Iran Gas Company, Pouvad-e-Rouhani Bank, Bank Sepah and Sader Oil Company. The Treasury Department lists Iran's Central Bank as one of the most important "target" in its country, as is Banco Delta Asia (BDA), Iran's main foreign exchange dealer. - -"While the government of Iran may be considered to be a 'threat/target' listed in the Treasury designation," the Treasury notes, "the designation does not affect the banking sector in Iran. The central bank… is allowed to engage in the use of foreign exchange through Iranian banks." - -This does not mean the Central Bank is not being sanctioned: - -Iran's Central Bank maintains access to U.S. dollar funding through the use of a network of commercial banks in various countries. For example, BDA is in the process of closing an account, which could affect its ability to transact financial transactions in U.S. dollars. Moreover, Iran's central bank has taken measures to restrict Iranian nationals from taking out money transfers in foreign currencies, which could affect trade and investment. U.S. sanctions also include measures that prevent U.S. citizens and non-Americans in Iran from opening or maintaining a bank account. - -China - -The country is again on the U.S. Treasury's list for being a country "that supports or protects" terrorism or those who facilitate that activity. China's financial and financial-related sectors come top of the list: - -China's government-owned and state-controlled financial institutions, which are closely related to the political and economic institutions of the government; and state-owned and state-controlled financial institutions, which act as an agent of any political or national security-related government institution, including international organizations or organizations of third parties. - -"State-owned and state-controlled financial institutions may do business with U.S. companies and banks. This may involve engaging in financial transactions such as loans, investments, insurance, or debt-financing." - -"The Chinese commercial sector's reliance on the sale and purchase of foreign exchange is a major source of funding for terrorism," notes the 2015 US Treasury Department "Terrorism Financing" report. China has a huge appetite for foreign currency – as much as $1.5 trillion a year – and has continued to buy up U.S. Treasury debt at an unsustainable pace in the last several years. - -China's central bank, in collaboration with its foreign exchange commercial banks, was recently caught on camera bribing a U.S. official in hopes of securing a better price on US Treasury debt via a $500 million payment. China's purchase of $2.5 trillion in U.S. Treasury debt, meanwhile, dwarfs that of all other countries combined. - -"Given China's financial dominance over the next 10 to 20 years, this move is not surprising," notes the Washington Post, adding that the Obama administration has "notched some notable successes" over the last five years in trying to curb China's growing economic influence, "with a more concerted approach to combat financial crimes in the name of fighting terrorism." - -Burma - - -======================================== SAMPLE 484 ======================================== -LONDON (Reuters) - British police have spoken to the U.S. President-elect Donald Trump as part of their investigation into claims of Russian meddling in the presidential election, a spokeswoman said on Friday. - -The spokeswoman for Britain's Metropolitan Police, Barbara Wilkinson, said "detectives from the National Crime Agency have been investigating the matter and we continue to support their work". - -She was asked about comments by Trump in an interview with Reuters that Britain's recent decision to quit the European Union was a factor in his thinking. - -"I was here when the news came out. I think that (Brexit) had a lot to do with it. I think it had to do with the fact that the people that ran the country outside of the United States obviously didn't have a good experience with the people and how they ran the country." - -Asked by Reuters whether Trump had been quizzed over the issue, Wilkinson said there had been a meeting between "officials" from "the FBI and the foreign office and the president elect's legal team" but said there were no details.<|endoftext|>Drew Carey - -Birthday: Apr 2, 1960 - -Birthplace: Philadelphia - -A native of Philadelphia -- and former resident of Phoenix, which is the hometown of his brother, John -- Drew Carey was raised in a strict Jewish home.

France, with just 14.4 percent of the population, ranked behind Switzerland (90.9 percent), Finland (90.1 percent) and Austria (90 percent). The remaining 3 percent did not provide details. - -France's Prison Service has been under the microscope after the Paris attacks of November 2015 left 130 people dead and 1,500 injured. Authorities found the attackers' apartment in an area that was "infiltrated," "seized" from a church and a community center known for its "radicalization of young people" and that was home to Muslims. - -The survey showed that the two gunmen, who were killed as they tried to shoot at police when they opened fire at the Bataclan theater, had links to Salafists, a movement that was "undermined" in the 1970s by French state-sponsored schools of Islamic studies. - -The "Salafists have been discredited" with a new generation of French men "lonely" for an identity, said CSU-IFOP director Gilles Ranchet. "The question is, what do they propose, do they have a solution or are they an alternative," he added. A "lack of political will," the lack of "civic courage," the desire for "clarity" and "decision" by lawmakers were among other factors cited. - -Some 60 per cent of women expressed their approval of "being an Islamic wife" and 43 percent agreed that a wife "must submit to her husband." - -Sixty five percent believe that "the public cannot allow a society where a woman has a different life than her husband," according to the CSU-IFOP. Fifty seven percent believe that women are more "indirectly responsible" for men's violence and 45 percent believe women are responsible for men's violence against them. - -While 67.2 percent of citizens approved of a law banning the hijab in public schools, 60.9 percent supported keeping face veils in the workplace except for health and security, a clear sign that France does not want to ban veils in general but "only those worn by Muslim women in the workplace," Ranchet said. - -The study also showed that 67.9 percent of women believe that a woman is "responsible for men's behavior," compared to 51.9 percent of men. Two thirds of women and men, respectively, called for equal responsibility for all roles in French society. - -The survey of 10,000 people aged 15 to 85 by the CSU-IFOP is a "unique" study and is conducted annually "in Europe, North America and South Africa," according to the center.<|endoftext|>The following article contains spoilers for The Dark Knight Rises, but those of you who are already familiar with the movie are unlikely to read this. - -There are two main types of people to whom The Dark Knight Rises opens: those people who are deeply worried about the future of the United States and those who are excited to jump straight in and start saving lives. The former seem more on the left-side of the political spectrum, the latter more on the right; both seem to believe the present state (or the near future state, when you really get down to it) is pretty grim, with few options left for the people who live in it to do anything about their lives. The question I have, then, is what it would have been like if the film had been directed by a different director (the same way, admittedly, that the film was directed by Christopher Nolan) and had had an entirely different ending that was more fitting to the film as a whole. - -If I didn't know any better, one of my first thoughts would probably be that it would have been like the ending of Apocalypse Now: a final war scene. The American-led forces would slaughter all the Vietnamese and Viet Cong on every possible corner, and those survivors would either be left to die or be shipped off to a very brutal prison camp in North Africa. Or maybe the soldiers would get their revenge with a "hero's" death or just a bullet to the face. Or perhaps the filmmakers simply decided that that's enough. It's all entirely possible, of course, but the feeling that The Dark Knight Rises evoked when it came to the Vietnam-related plot points would have been a lot less grim and more hopeful. - -Advertisement - -The question is, should you go see The Dark Knight Rises again, now that you -======================================== SAMPLE 486 ======================================== -A recent study has revealed that the prevalence of childhood obesity is soaring in Saudi Arabia. - -According to a report released by the Health Development Foundation, nearly 5 percent of the Saudi Arabian children aged between birth and seven years old - or roughly 22.6 million children - were obese during 2013-2016, compared to just 3.4 percent in the same period five years ago. - -This staggering leap mirrors the growing concern over the health risks of childhood obesity in the kingdom and has been met with calls for a drastic health overhaul. - -A recent study has revealed that the prevalence of childhood obesity is soaring in Saudi Arabia - -According to a report released by the Health Development Foundation, nearly 5 percent of the Saudi Arabian children aged between birth and seven years old - or roughly 22.6 million children - were obese during 2013-2016 - -The alarming figure - which the UN's Development Programme (UNDP) has described as a 'global tragedy' - comes amid an unprecedented rise in obesity in the Kingdom. - -The UNDP said it is no coincidence that the Saudi obesity epidemic has reached unprecedented levels in the last few years. - -Since 2007, the health ministry has monitored obesity trends and commissioned a health study after the country's first obesity study. - -'The obesity problem in Saudi Arabia has been rising steadily over the past few years, with the most recent report showing a staggering 32 per cent higher percentage of Saudis overweight or obese compared to 2013, and the third highest number in the world, behind Australia and the United States,' the UNDP said. - -'The government and society must now focus on a holistic approach to address childhood obesity,' it added. - -A recent study has revealed that the prevalence of childhood obesity is soaring in Saudi Arabia<|endoftext|>(This is part of a long-running series of posts about the history of feminism. The first part can be found here.) For much of the 20th century, Americans viewed political activism as a male pastime, a hobby mostly reserved for men and used as a way to advance their way of life. In the 1960s, however, the feminist movement became a popular outlet for women, and a significant threat to male power. This "second wave" of feminism, marked by the rise of radical feminism and women seeking "self-determination" at the workplace and on the political scene, took form in part, we think, in reaction to the early American movement's emphasis on female "dominance" over male "subordination." Feminism was seen by many in the late 19th century as a threat to American patriarchal culture, and thus, by and large it was a male hobby (a few prominent feminists even called themselves "menlovers"). But the feminists also challenged the old feminist "female" idea that all women are, by nature, "submissive" to men. In the early years of the feminist movement, many male women, including writers, historians, and journalists, participated in its work, and a few prominent women also advocated for and advocated for women's equality. In addition, as feminism gained power, some male feminists criticized the movement for being too focused on "men's oppression." The feminist and women's movements, of course, were also the battleground for a civil rights movement that fought against discrimination against women. But the women's movement's most vocal supporters, both male and female, saw the feminist movement as a threat to the rights, roles, and privileges of white American women and men. There is not much doubt that there were, and still are, some feminists who hold these views. Nonetheless, the feminist movement, to date, has made many important and significant strides toward the equality of women. Today, more than ever before, American women are fighting for the equal opportunity to participate in society, to enjoy economic security, and to take part in political life. These successes have been achieved largely because of the women's rights movement. To understand this movement and their history, we need to get a better understanding of what feminism means at its core. How Feminism Started - -The phrase "feminism" is sometimes used, erroneously, in the sense of the new-old and supposedly "radical" feminism first described in the 1920s by the feminist activist Mary Wollstonecraft. If you ask most readers this, they'll say something like "oh, the 1920s?" and tell you about the suffragettes, the Industrial Workers of the World, the National Organization for Women. But there's an assumption here that is far from clear. The term feminism came into common usage in the late 1850s, during the first wave of feminism. It was derived from the Greek prefix femine, meaning "female" or "woman," referring to the Latin female sex organ. Feminism emerged from the first wave of feminism in the mid 19th century, and it was an outgrowth of the earlier efforts to challenge misogyny, and the sexual discrimination of women. Some feminists even argued that the traditional view of "male" and "female" should be revised, in order -======================================== SAMPLE 487 ======================================== -(See the end of the chapter for notes .) - -Chapter Text - -The rain-caked, sunburned, snot-nosed boy shuddered as he slowly rose from his spot on the bed. He sat up, looking around the empty room. Where was his pillow? It was by the wall, and it was missing. - -His first thought was probably a bad one. He'd slept in a room without a bed. - -It was a good thing, as well, he decided. Even without a bed, he was too drowsy to go back to sleep. Even if he could get his pants back on, he'd have to have a shower first. When he'd first woken up all he saw was his parents standing over him, their eyes focused intently on the clock. His breath caught in his throat when they made out the time for himself. - -His mom wasn't in the next room, and his dad hadn't come downstairs in time to make him breakfast, or at least none of his breakfast. The man was just staring blankly, eyes closed, as if the clock and the breakfast would solve everything if he just sat still for a moment. With that final thought, the boy sighed. He would wait in the hallway until his parents got back. He'd eat right before school. It'd be better than his usual morning snack. - -But no, that was foolish. Because all he wanted to do was sleep. - -He sat there for a minute, thinking. Was all that so bad? That his parents were making an effort to make him have breakfast? What did that even mean? - -Oh, his life would be boring and predictable after that, he decided. Nothing would surprise him anymore. He didn't know why he was so excited when his parents made out the minute clock, but he was. He was so excited. His breath caught when he saw the clock again, but this time the face wasn't as blank. It had the same numbers written across it; it was 9:00 in the morning. - -He stood slowly and went to look at it. He saw the number one. How could he have missed that? - -He tried to take it in, but he wasn't sure how. It was dark outside, and there was a light coming from outside of his window. It cast a pale tint onto everything inside his tiny, tiny room, with the exception of his bedframe. It was a pale, pale yellow. - -He couldn't help but stare at it when his attention wasn't occupied by the clock. - -After a long moment in which the boy lost his breath and his eyes darted from one side of his room to another, he came to a realization. It was so important that he thought it over carefully. He could do nothing about it now. Not now, when his parents were busy with something important. It was probably a good thing they were busy, too; he needed food. - -He stood up, moving to the dining room. As he made his way over to the table set up, he started to think back. Had his dad noticed the clock? Had he noticed his parents making out in the hallway as well? As he thought about it more, he couldn't help but wonder. What was important? - -He wanted to say it out loud, then. "Daddy! Momma!" he shouted. - -"Daddy?" his father asked in return. He was sitting with his back to the windows. In his other hand, he held a small, square snack box in which was one white-skinned lump of something. - -"We gotta get food, or I'm gonna be late to school! I swear!" - -"Sorry, son, but I don't have time now because I'm giving Mrs. Grisham a hand with this." - -"I'm still not done with that one! I'm so excited! I can't wait!" - -"Sorry, son. I don't know how long it will take for you to be ready to walk, but that's why you're in here." His father said with a frown. - -"Why's momma working on Mrs. Grisham's hand? Can't I do it?" - -"That's Mrs. Grisham's hand too, son." - -"What do I have to do?" The boy asked confused. He didn't understand why his parents would have to work on each other's hands when their hands were the same color. - -"I don't know." His father said sheepishly. "I didn't think you'd notice, but it's pretty common for kids to get so excited they can't sit still long enough for me to get their food." He shook his head.

For us, that's a big deal. To my children, it's a miracle, because they'll never experience the same special kind of joy we did as a single mom, or two parents, or two single parents. At no point can anybody say how much we enjoyed it (and no one would make me feel too bad about having two kids), but we did. We made it all the way to our second birthday without saying a single word about our new additions. I think that's a little bit crazy. The only thing more impressive than having a beautiful little girl, however, is knowing that I made the decision not to even tell them when I found out about my second pregnancy -- or when it was possible that I was pregnant. I always considered myself quite private about my children, but I realized that that is a huge mistake. You have to make someone happy by being open and honest with them. I don't think it's very easy to love somebody if you don't let them know how much you love them, and that's definitely something that will keep me strong. I always tell my children (my oldest is almost 7) that "love is a gift" and that I will keep them safe and love them no matter what. It has proven to be true. I do not have some type of a hidden agenda in our lives. As a matter of fact, I think I'm a pretty honest person. I do not like lying when it has to do with a relationship. If there is something that could be construed as lying to my children, I know now that it would not be. On the plus side, being a person that is honest with me means that I let my kids know when I am happy -- and when I am sad, sad times will follow. When my daughter was born, it was a huge surprise to all my family, but when I found out the truth, I was absolutely devastated. I cried on my hands and knees. I couldn't even sit with her when she was born because I was so emotional. When I found out she was a girl, I still couldn't understand how my family couldn't have known about it, but at that moment I realized that they never even met a daughter. I was the first family member to find out the truth about my pregnancy, so I decided to tell my children the truth about my pregnancy -- even though I know it would have meant so much for them had they ever known. We still live close by with my mom and dad and she always gets angry at how hard it was for me to admit that I was pregnant. She says that my baby would have had a lot of trouble breathing in the first few months and would have had a difficult delivery. She would not have been able to care for her, and it would have been hard to handle and it would take a toll on her too. All of that is true. Now that I have two little ones to look after, she has no idea how I am doing. I think she feels the same way I do -- I don't think she understands why I did not tell them sooner or why I wasn't more open about the pregnancy. Nowadays, I don't feel the need to be honest with these wonderful children every day, because when they get older (and I hope I will one day be with them long enough for them to become grandparents), the whole conversation will just make too much sense to them. But I will always have a very special bond with them. I love my kids just as much as they love me. It is a very sad day for me when I see my children growing up, especially since most of them are now teenagers. I never thought I'd be feeling this way in any other regard, but I think I need my kids in all different situations. I do believe that we become what we fear, and as a kid who didn't always feel very loved, I know that to be true. Now that I have a little experience around my own kids, I know that they understand that love comes in all different shapes and sizes. The one thing that's true about our relationship is that it is equal, even though we are very different, and I think that's an amazing quality. As soon as a stranger says something negative to my children, their reaction just makes me so happy, and I feel so proud of them because that can only be due to me being a good mom -======================================== SAMPLE 489 ======================================== -There are many reasons why a home buyer might choose to lease a home—whether it's because they want a home that is safer, more convenient, or just because it's cheaper—or whether they want a home they can own in a matter of years. - -Either way, if you are making the choice to lease then you have to know how property tax works in Illinois. Landlords in Illinois can be required to pay property taxes on homes they lease. The amount depends on the contract. To make the math easier, we made a simple calculator that allows the calculation of tax payments. - -How many years are the annual rentals allowed for? - -Landlords can charge as few as one additional year. However, we do not recommend charging more than two additional years. - -Is there any consideration for the length of the lease? - -No. This is simply the length of the contract. - -Is there any consideration when it comes to the amount of the tax payments? - -Yes. The landlord and buyer must negotiate and agree on the amount to be paid as part of the lease agreement. - -Is there any consideration for the length of the rental? - -Yes, this also has to be worked out in the lease agreement. This is known as a "reasonable" lease term. The rental must be one to two years long. Anything longer than two years is considered "unsafe" by the state. - -Should there be any consideration for time spent in the property or outside the property? Should the landlord be required to keep the property in good repair? - -The answer to all of these questions will depend entirely on the size and location of the home. There are many factors to consider in choosing who owns a home and where it needs to be housed. This calculator will help you to calculate the amount you will be responsible for property tax. - -When should I start paying the property tax? - -A property that is the home of multiple people is responsible for paying all of the taxes in some way that helps the people it is sharing the home with. - -For example, if the property was previously a hotel with many people staying at the property and the current tenants are moving out, then all tenants will pay property tax when they move out. But, if the property has five tenants, then each tenant would need to pay property tax before they moved. This can be a challenging situation to figure out the amount that each tenant should pay. - -How do I calculate property tax liability for a home on which I will live? - -Enter in the date you want to calculate the tax liability and then use the calculator to see what taxes you will likely owe. - -How do I determine how much tax is due? - -The tax rate is determined by the county. For property taxes in Cook County, the rate is 6.25%. In Kane County it's 7.25%. In DuPage County it's 8%. In Lake County it's 10%. The rate is based on the cost of living of the county. - -How much more of a tax shock could a home buy in Chicago? - -If you live in Chicago, it will be more stressful to own a house outside of Chicago than it will be to rent in Chicago. The amount of taxes depends on the county, local taxes on the rent, and what other government assistance you receive in addition to property taxes. - -How much more could the property taxes be if my taxes are paid monthly instead of yearly? - -If your taxes are paid weekly or monthly your monthly property tax will be less than if you paid every month. - -Will this help my mortgage? - -No, but you should see whether or not this calculator will be helpful in determining the cost of buying a home. Property taxes are paid by the owner of each home (the property is the home).<|endoftext|>This is a classic book which, for those who are interested in the subject, should be required reading in many undergraduate English departments.

One of the reasons for which the book attracted such wide interest throughout the English community was the emphasis on the subject given in its preface. The author states in his preface that he had 'always loved the ancient Greeks, but a general admiration for them was tempered by real admiration for the Greeks of today.' In fact, he was particularly fond of their modern-day counterparts, such as the Italians, the Germans, and the British. That is really the crux of this book, the Greeks of today, not merely in the modern European sense, but more specifically those who call themselves Greeks, or at least claim to be such. In other words, to -======================================== SAMPLE 490 ======================================== -The United States has been forced to suspend negotiations on a free trade agreement with South Korea. - -The US Trade Representative's office acknowledged in its press release that "the Administration is in the process of examining new proposals from Korea regarding the terms of an additional term, schedule, and scope of participation to the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement." This does not mean that the Korean government will agree to the new terms, or that the USTR is willing to make concessions. - -The USTR's release further explained that "the Administration remains open to negotiations on the revised text" and that it is in contact with Korean officials to facilitate the outcome. It is not clear whether the White House, led by a Republican, is committed to changing its position. - -Korean negotiators have stated they are willing to negotiate a deal that "delivers on its objectives" and to keep the deal within its stated goals, such as eliminating tariffs. The United States has made clear that it does not want to create a trade war that could cripple Korea's economy. - -However, it is conceivable that the White House could offer concessions that are too extreme to Seoul. If so, South Korean officials could accept those terms and conclude that it would be easier to renegotiate, rather than take the drastic steps of withdrawing from the agreement. - -Under our current free trade agreement with Korea, the United States was able to use an Article 311 under the Trade Act of 1974, which allows it to negotiate changes to the agreement, including an extension, in a case where the USTR determines the agreement will "significantly adversely affect a substantial number of significant US importers." The act is a rare legal mechanism that allows a signatory to end a trade agreement without giving up domestic market access or tariff reductions that have already been granted. - -However, the administration has made clear that it does not view this underlined provision as a shortcut toward a trade war. The White House has stated it believes that Article 311's use should be limited to matters of "serious concern to the United States," and that the issue would then be adjudicated by congressional action. - -Korean negotiators would face a tough decision if they wanted to withdraw from the agreement without giving up domestic market access, which could cost the United States as much as $12 billion a year in direct and indirect market losses. - -It is likely that the White House has already decided to scrap the agreement without any further negotiations. The administration could attempt to extend negotiations by negotiating amendments that are not as drastic as those South Korea has proposed. This approach might not succeed in getting the same levels of concessions as the Korean government is seeking. - -It is worth noting that the USTR is not the only US trade agency involved in this negotiation. Congress has given the USTR authority over trade negotiations throughout the world, and thus has the authority to make binding decisions. The decision whether or not to bring the current deal to a resounding end, whether to continue negotiations or drop the issue, and whether or not Korea should be required to drop its objection to a modified agreement depends heavily on how the USTR chooses to exercise that authority. That is one reason some analysts question the legality of how this trade agreement came to be approved and signed by Congress.<|endoftext|>In the same way that the US is a country with many different races, cultures, social classes, colors, and genders, the UK is a country with many different races, cultures, social classes, colors, and genders. For example: - -Culturally, many British people are very fond of the colour yellow, and many Brits believe in the power of the bloodline, especially the white bloodline, to be able to turn into a reptilian creature and take over the earth by the age of 25. And that there should not be any different colour or race allowed to be different, and it should be enforced with force - in the form of laws. - -Culturally, many British people are very fond of the colour white, and many Brits believe in the power of the bloodline, especially the white bloodline, to be able to stop any race being different or different from themselves, such as the Scottish. - -Culturally, many British people hold many different ideas about other races and genders. They believe that whites should rule, that they do not need others because they are the best, and that women should be subservient and obedient. - -But in one aspect that all British people seem to have in common, they all think differently than other people on this planet. - -Briton, who is often confused with Brit, is an old surname, which means 'white person'. - -Brit is often used as a derogatory term that implies that you're a 'cisgendered white middle class feminist', which means you are privileged (and entitled) and therefore need to listen to the opinions and opinions of whites more than anyone else on this planet - especially the opinions and opinions of the white majority.

And just like any other religion, it is not immune to religious intolerance and discrimination. And even more than any other religion, Buddhism has the most prominent practitioners and the most visible symbols and symbols of those practitioners: the Buddha statues. And I've been told by quite a few Buddhists that they don't like their statues as much: not because they are ugly, but because they look like the Buddha's friends. - -But don't these statues remind you too much of your own friends? Is the statue the image of someone you really admired? - -We have idols everywhere in society. We have paintings and statues of beautiful women, beautiful men, and beautiful dogs. But these are not the images of the person. They are images of the thing. They are images of our cultural conditioning, and of our desire to be seen and recognized by others. - -We can see why people have idols. The statues, like them, are things to be admired — and to want to emulate. But the images that we create and the images that we take as images of ourselves are not just superficial; they are also often harmful. - -People have idols all the time: friends, parents, animals, vehicles, politicians, religions they've followed all their lives, food they always eat, and so forth. When I was young, my friends and I had idols we had to keep up for society to recognize us. It was only when we started to have our own identity and our own stories that those idols began to lose their power. - -I have a few friends whose statues look nothing like themselves, though we've known them for years. - -But my friend and I are different. We do not want to imitate the people. We do not want to make people around us look like us. For people are not things. They are people. We are good and interesting because of what I, myself, am. If someone would have told you at age 13 that the person in front of you is actually the person you really want to be you would laugh in their face. (Not just because they would look ridiculous, but also because we would laugh and say, "Well, he does kind of look like me.") - -We are different from other people. We are people who live our lives and we create our own lives. We are also people who respect each other, and we respect each other because we respect ourselves. We try, as best we can, not to be like, or to emulate another person or another culture. - -A statue or a painting of an old friend is no substitute for living, loving, and developing yourself. - -Buddhism is not just about one person, but about our whole life: about being ourselves, being alive, being free (from suffering) to live your own life, free from having to conform to expectations of who others should want you to be or what they want you to do. - -In fact, the more we have idols like the Buddha, the more we reject our real selves. We think we are some mythical figure, some historical figure who came to save the world. Buddha-like figures are far more useful as a prop than as a source of true, living energy and goodness. When the Buddha came to teach, he came as someone who didn't tell stories or make movies and who spent most of his day walking the countryside. He didn't have a mansion or a car or a lot of possessions. He was simply like every other person, a humble scholar who was very determined to practice and develop the good actions necessary of him to save the world and make a difference in human life. - -The Buddha never had a family, or had a spouse, or had children or a wife and children. He simply didn't need anyone. He cared very deeply and profoundly for others, and they cared for him, too. And the fact that he had no personal or family life does not mean that he did not care for himself. But it does mean that he did not need anyone to do so, and therefore that it was fine to see him as he was and to treat him as he would want to be treated. - -That's the basic idea behind Buddhists who have only a few statues at home (they have their own ones in the temples to go with theirs). In other words, to have a statue, or an image from an artist, does not equal to being like the person it depicts. - -We see Buddha statues in some temples all over the country. We think, "Wow, that looks just like me!" What we are overlooking is that the Buddha is neither the human being in front of him, and nor does he have a body like our body. The Buddha was one who knew very well that it's not his body which is important; it's how he behaves and how he treats other human beings (both by being compassionate and taking actions -======================================== SAMPLE 492 ======================================== -The last time Kieren Jack and John Gibbons faced off in person, it was as opposing coaches in the pre-season game. - -With two games remaining in the regular season, Gibbons and Jack found themselves faced with slightly different challenges. After a dominant two-game run, the Blue Jays could barely make it past the first round of the Amway Canadian League playoffs. - -Gibbons made the decision to make a small move up the starting rotation, while keeping a hold on the No. 5 spot in the bullpen. With the regular season nearing a close, the challenge remained: Make the playoffs. - -So how did Toronto fare? - -On the final day of the regular season, Jack made his first appearance since suffering a knee injury on July 2. However, what a difference two weeks makes. - -The 28-year-old posted a 6.10 ERA and 10 strikeouts over four innings of work. He struck out five batters and failed to record an out, allowing seven runs. - -Gibbons, who was named the A's manager for the 2013 season, said he saw a "very good" outing from his new left-hander. - -"Obviously, his delivery was probably a bit off, which was good," Gibbons said. "The more experience you get in any game, the better you can work on things. - -"I thought the guys did get a good look at his stuff. I had a similar look. There were times there where I was surprised at some things he went to. I thought Kieren did an good job of keeping the ball down and locating." - -Gibbons said it was a good mix of pitch count, variety and keeping the ball down so it wouldn't end up high in the zone. - -"I've been around a long time and I've seen a lot of pitchers go through these kinds of things," he added. "That was definitely a learning experience for him, knowing this wasn't a one-game situation, where he was going to have to work his way out and try to make pitches. It gave him an opportunity in that regard." - -Jack would later pick up a win during a road trip to play in Edmonton and Calgary. He would go on to strike out 12 batters and surrender one run in the five-inning game against the Hitmen. - -In his first start since July 2, Jack allowed just one run in six innings against the Texas Rangers. The Blue Jays held on for a 3-2 victory, as Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion were both released prior to the start. - -Gibbons said he'd like to see a similar performance out of Jack next time out against the A's. - -"I've watched him work a little bit in the cage and the drills, and really, he looked like a really good pitcher," he added. "He was just missing spots he had when he was out. I think when he throws another 10 [innings] like he's done, he's going to be a heck of a pitcher. His stuff was going." - -Gibbons said he expects to know more after the final game of the season, but does not expect the Blue Jays will be making any drastic moves in an effort to find pitching help. - -"No, that's not going to happen," he replied. "I've never been in a situation where I've had a bunch of money to spend. We're still on pace to finish the season with some good players and guys pitching well enough for you win the AL East, but we're not going to get there with pitching." - -This season has been a difficult one for the Blue Jays, as they've seen their payroll balloon beyond some of the top teams in the league. Toronto was unable to keep pace with the other contending teams in the division, and has also struggled to find players who can get quality starts. - -The Blue Jays ended the 2013 season with a team ERA of 4.73 and ranked 30th in starting rotation ERA. Although the team still has good players and a promising young crop of outfielders in the system, the talent isn't translating into results. - -"There's no question about it that that's the biggest thing, just consistency," Gibbons said. "In 2011 we didn't start the season very well, we lost a lot of games during that time. That was one of the biggest things, just consistency, just knowing how to get guys out when you've got to. That's been good for us all year."<|endoftext|>We are happy to announce our second annual "RUN IT!" event! The theme? "You are here to run, not walk."

Every day, a young person is walking into a doctor. Not just the old and sick and lame, but the young and healthy. Every day a baby is born in America. Every single day there's a job opening," Beck said on his syndicated radio program Monday. "That's why we're still successful. It's not because you have big ideas. It's because people have big ideas. That's all they really want." - -SPONSORED - -But it wasn't all sunshine for Beck. He made the startling claim that people who have been receiving government insurance subsidies are actually in worse health than even before they got the government help. - -"Why in the world is the president's health care law doing everything in its power to make it harder for people to get health care insurance?" Beck asked. "What was so good about the president's health care law that he said it was going to make it harder for people to get health care insurance?" - -The health reform reform law, which has been the linchpin of Obama's reelection campaign, had some unexpected side effects. For one, insurance premiums for both the young and old jumped dramatically in the first year it went into effect. For the young, health insurance premiums rose an average of 34 percent by 2011. But the average cost of medical care for the elderly actually went down by about the same amount because of the law. According to data from the Kaiser Family Foundation, the median monthly premium for a family plan rose from $245 in 2011 to $250 in 2012, and for individuals the median monthly premium went from $243 in 2011 to $246 in 2012. - -Even before the law was implemented by the federal government, health care prices and services were already starting to creep up. For example, in a survey released last year, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners noted the trend. The cost of a family health plan rose 4.3 percent in 2010 and 3.6 percent the next year, while total health care spending increased 7.4 percent in 2010 and 7.4 percent in 2011. - -"The number of providers and doctors under health insurance plans has significantly increased," the N.A.I.C. said.

The latter, in particular, has been widely publicized. - -We're hoping that this video is the real deal, because it looks like some of the vehicles that were launched recently in China have already seen the light of day here in the States. - -Advertisement - -But first, what's the video all about? - -Apparently -======================================== SAMPLE 494 ======================================== -The world is full of places where we know that the law does not apply. A place like the United States, for example, where we have a system of government that gives the government vast power, and is run by people who seem to operate according to their own rules — and to the laws that those people want them to follow, no matter what those laws say. - -But then there are places where a different kind of law does apply. Places where we are not able to get hold of the kind of legal services or legal advice that our parents, grandparents, and other close friends would have given us but whose absence has taken so much of the sting out of the world. These places, where people are not well served by government — a condition that many of us have to fight every day. These places are also those that many other countries seem to have turned down. - -This country, as you know, had a huge problem with the criminal justice system until very recently. You saw the problem in the aftermath of the horrendous murders in Charleston last year. That's where I grew up, as the son of a man who was part of the justice system in my hometown, of a black cop who died in the line of duty. His was a tragic case, it was tragic that his death took place only months after he'd been hired, but it could be avoided if local law enforcement could have had the proper services. - -We need to do better, and we need to do it in a smarter, more sensible way — especially given the fact that in the years since that terrible tragedy, the police department from the town of Charleston has changed almost beyond recognition — the police chief had been fired, the police dispatcher had turned over to a private company — all kinds of new systems taken over or improved. Even the town's jail was opened up to private companies this year, and they're already bringing in private security companies to help keep the peace. - -The problem, like many problems in this country, is the government that we have is run by people with powerful interests, and they can use their money, their power, or both to get what they want. That leads to things like the failure of the war on drugs. Instead of a national policy, the federal government was forced to take individual cases and hand them over to local law enforcement who were underfunded, overworked, and understaffed. The result was a national epidemic of addiction that has still not been really dealt with to this day, and a lack of law enforcement that keeps the people of our country subject to an increasing number of threats. - -That's just the sort of thing we need to think about — a system that isn't doing the right thing, and is being run by people who aren't interested in doing what the law requires. And we need to change it, as a country, to make sure that that sort of thing doesn't happen. We haven't yet, but when we look at the kinds of policies that you and I have discussed, we seem to be inching forward in a very positive direction. Not just in terms of criminal justice reform and drug policy reform, but in terms of the kinds of things that I want to see made available to people in these kinds of communities. - -Now, you don't think that the United States Postal Service should be allowed to continue being a profitable corporation? - -That's right. - -That we should be able to expand postal services to many more of our inner cities? - -I think that's the right and proper thing to do. One area that's really important in our plan is in helping ensure that people can get the tools they need for the jobs that need to be done. The Postal Service has really been a poster-child for failure. It's become so big and so dysfunctional that the private shipping industry has taken it over, and as a result we're seeing things come to a head. Right now there's a whole lot of frustration with postal services, and you saw it in this week's debate over the sequester. There's a lot of fear and concern about how this is going to affect those communities if this kind of thing goes on going forward. - -And what I'm talking about is in this budget, which I'm going to send out in the next few weeks, there's a number of items specifically aimed at those who need to be able to afford their own postal service. There's a number of things aimed at helping in terms of protecting postal workers, and some of them are very important. It was a very important thing, for example, that postal workers in Baltimore were able to have their working hours restored, under the Bush administration, at the request of Mayor Rawlings-Blake, who said that it was important for them to be able to return to doing their jobs so that they could continue to fulfill their sacred duty of delivering our mail. - -What I'm thinking about is a lot of things that the Postal Service doesn't even pay attention to, that really could help -======================================== SAMPLE 495 ======================================== - -The video will start in 8 Cancel - -Get daily news updates directly to your inbox Subscribe Thank you for subscribing We have more newsletters Show me See our privacy notice Could not subscribe, try again later Invalid Email - -A teenager is recovering in bed after she was 'gang raped' by a number of people after going jogging near her home in Bristol this morning. - -The 18-year-old, who cannot be named to protect the identity of the alleged victims, was attacked as she left her nearby school on Southmead Road, with another woman then accompanying her home. - -Police were called this morning and were seen questioning men outside a car, believed to have driven the pair. - -The woman who allegedly assaulted her has since been detained in a police station. - -The victim had been out walking with a group of friends after finishing a sporty session at her school around 9.30am, when a driver pulled alongside them and shouted and then jumped out of the car. - -(Image: SWNS.) - -The 18-year-old was forced to the floor after she was kicked in the backside, with the attackers hitting her with chairs and a drink glass. - -She managed to get her arm back under her skirt and then the men ran off along the road before returning with a fourth group. - -Her friend then picked her up, but when she ran from the scene, the men followed.

These studies have also demonstrated a reduced incidence of cardiovascular events and cancer death in subjects consuming this plant-based diet. There have been relatively fewer studies that have examined the potential of an enriched plant-based diet to prevent and treat the major chronic diseases that are the primary causes of morbidity and mortality in the United States population. While there are some promising preliminary data, there has been controversy regarding the appropriateness and practicality of this dietary approach. A number of factors influence the practicality, cost or effectiveness of these nutritional approaches. However, one of the most important contributors to the controversy stems from a misunderstanding of the biochemical and biological mechanisms by which a plant-based diet benefits patients. Several studies have identified a number of potential biological mechanisms by which fiber contributes to improved health. However, a number of questions have yet to be answered, including: how can fiber reduce body fat/fat mass, reduce cholesterol, improve glycemic control, promote health in certain cancer patients, induce weight loss or prevent weight gain, and if the fiber improves glycemic control, what factors determine weight loss? How long will the health benefits of a fiber supplement last? How does ingestion of this fiber affect weight or blood sugar levels? How is fiber absorbed into the intestine? What determines the ability of the intestine to absorb a given fiber? These and other questions have led to a wide body of research. However, most of this research has been of short duration and/or has not looked at the potential benefits of a fiber supplement in an obese patient population. In addition, most of the clinical trial evidence that has been presented to date is of relatively short duration. This will not likely change in the near future as there is a high demand for new therapies to treat obesity as well as many serious chronic diseases. Many of these diseases also represent a serious public health concern. Therefore, it is not likely that clinical trials of a dietary regimen as a means of treatment of these chronic diseases will be undertaken again for the foreseeable future. These trials in the past have largely been performed with healthy subjects, and thus there can be no expectation that a fiber supplement can be used in these patients given the high level of disease risk inherent to these diseases. It is also important to recognize that there is no way that fiber can be used to treat -======================================== SAMPLE 496 ======================================== -Grimacing and sobbing in the courtroom, the victim spoke to the court that "there is absolutely no excuse for what happened to me, I made certain rules that I've kept. But I cannot explain how he managed to get into my bedroom door." The accused had tried to steal a laptop from a woman he met at a nightclub. - -After pleading guilty to rape and sexual activity with a minor, the accused was sentenced to 10 years and three months in a minimum security facility, while being kept away from children. He was also given a four year driving ban and was ordered to pay a fine of about Bt60,000 for the attempted theft. The court has ruled that the convicted offender will also have to compensate the victim for her medical expenses as well as her counseling costs. - -The court also ordered the man be made to follow sexual harassment laws.<|endoftext|>This week, Donald Hormelman, a co-founder of the iconic Los Angeles-based nightclub "The Sunset Strip," passed away suddenly, as has been reported. In 2006, he was a regular at Sunset Strip. On the Sunset Strip, we all knew who Hormelman was. In fact, he was well-known by this point to a host of locals, including me. - -Hormelman started as the musical director of "The Strip's" popular "L.A. Cabaret." Eventually he became a major contributor to Sunset Strip. As its general manager and promoter, he presided over the establishment's greatest years. In a 2006 story titled, "Gone but not forgotten," The Los Angeles Times described Hormelman: - -The Strip's L.A. Cabaret has been shuttered since October, though Hormelman remained a major force on the club's front lines. As the city's marquee live entertainment destination, it was here that Sunset Strip honed its live music act and pioneered new types of music, ranging from ska, funk and Latin to disco and blues. - -In the late 1970s, as L.A. was in the cross-hairs of the AIDS epidemic, Hormelman was one of the first to offer free HIV tests on the Strip. His testing, at the time, included bloodwork. While I don't know of any specifics, it seems likely that one of the reasons Hormelman was known around town for his AIDS activism was his free testing program. That being said, that didn't make him an enemy of the LGBT community, as The Advocate's Scott Thomas describes: - -In recent years, he has also started a free AIDS testing clinic. His message has been a consistent presence around town. People tell me about their HIV test. I think it will always be a part of people's lives, especially given how HIV is still so new. - -I'm told that Hormelman's most important work as Sunset Strip founder has been his commitment to maintaining a gay night life. It's a commitment that can be seen even today, when the former club continues to thrive in the South Bay of Los Angeles. - -The Strip was famous on the Strip of the West Coast as the place to go to party, but on the Strip in L.A., it was the only place to go from 7pm to midnight. Even back then, after the club's closing in 1984, Sunset Strip did much more than just close, it began to be forgotten about completely. Only recently did it become a destination again. I'm told it's hard to explain but that it happened from 2002-2010. But the strip was really known from its inception.<|endoftext|>The video above shows the moment a passenger accidentally got his hand on the wrong end of the iPad mini in a Southwest flight. - -According to reports of the incident, the passenger's "hand went towards the iPad, which then had the flight attendants running around grabbing it." - -The unnamed flight attendant then got the iPad back from him. - -Passengers on the flight said that the passenger "started to cry and told the crew that this wasn't in normal use." - -One passenger, who took the video, said that the flight attendants made all attempts to get the iPad returned to its rightful owner. - -The two passengers on the plane are reported to have gotten into a conversation after the whole incident went down, and were allowed to leave the plane without further action by the crew. - -In a statement, Southwest Airlines apologised to the passenger, stating that the company was "aware of the concerns this incident has caused." It added that it "has been in communication with" the customer regarding the matter. - -The airline added that passengers would need to sign in and sign out of the iPhone and iPad, according to ABC News. - -The airline has asked passengers to inform flight attendants that the device they just brought aboard is an additional device and therefore cannot be used unless the crew provides clearance. - -Southwest and Apple have been in talks for more than a year over the issue of passengers carrying electronic devices onboard planes. -======================================== SAMPLE 497 ======================================== -"We should have no problem if they don't play. If we do play they should be able to play, we know that." - -— - -"So I'll tell you the story of my life. We grew up in Philadelphia, the same way we grew up in Boston. You don't grow up in a city, you grow up in parts. We lived in a neighborhood called Park West. I was there from the time I was like 5, 6 years old until I moved to California. I've never ever moved out of that area that is called Park West." - -— - -"We had a very good relationship with them.

It just blows my mind. If, in fact, it's the case that they cannot play, then fine, we'll go home. But that they're not playing, no." - -— - -"Now, we would have loved to keep them out there just because we have a number of players that we'd like to see play." - --Kurt Busch - -I think the fans in Philly should be disappointed that they missed a chance to see Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons play in front of 40,000 or 50,000 fans as the Sixers prepare for Monday night's meeting with the Pacers. - -I think the fans should also expect the usual back and forth between the Sixers management and their fans. - -I think there needs to be a meeting between Joel Embiid and Brett Brown to resolve the conflict over Joel's playing time. - - -No matter how frustrating the frustration will be on a day-to-day basis, the fact remains that Joel Embiid could have played and the Sixers did not. - - -"They have a game tomorrow because we had an event yesterday," head coach Brett Brown said Saturday of when the team returned to Philly. "And that's something that I personally will look at that and decide how to move forward." - -But let's just be real here: the most likely scenario is that no matter how uncomfortable Embiid looks during the regular season, and the most likely scenario is that the team has no choice but to release Embiid because he is not healthy, then there should be an open meeting with Embiid and Brown. - -And just between you and me, if my guess is right and the reason the Sixers decided it's in the Sixers' best interest to not play Embiid is because they feel like he is not contributing, then this should NOT be a front and center story. - - -The biggest reason why people are so upset about Embiid's absence is because for the past few years the idea has been talked about that having Embiid in the starting lineup alongside Ben Simmons is the best way to get the most out of both players. - -Well, according to K.C. Johnson of the Atlantic City Sentinel, that may not necessarily be the case. K.C. Johnson: - -A source familiar with the situation said the team's general manager will discuss it after games and would prefer Embiid on the court with Simmons and rookie second-round pick Dario Saric for two hours every morning. Brown and Embiid have an understanding, the source said. At some point, Embiid will probably make his own decision on whether he wants to be at practice during the day and watch his friend play in front of him, or sit and watch from the stands. - -You can get some insight into where the Sixers might go for their starting line-up by analyzing the numbers of their stars. - -As much as I think there is truth to the notion that Embiid being on the bench and Simmons and Saric being the starting five is the way to go, I think if Embiid, Simmons, Saric, Covington, and Hollis Thompson can all fill the void that the Sixers have lacked, I don't see how this is a bad idea. - -The good news is that Joel Embiid is doing his part in growing, which is something that hasn't been the case in Philly for a while. - -The bad news is the Sixers can't seem to get Embiid on the court.<|endoftext|>The federal government has introduced new regulations with the aim of improving safety for the transportation of hazardous substances and pollutants on our highways.

They're fun, and they're fun to write. Both stories could be considered "puppets": there are very few things more terrifying to most readers than those very real, very specific things they just can't handle. There is something about the ability to evoke fear with such specificity and with such speed and ease that works as both the basis for the story itself, as well as the story's most important tool. - -A good "scary" story is an easy sell. When you put two stories together that are actually about the same thing – horror – but are at odds, and when the horror is portrayed in terms of the actual and immediate threat to the characters, then readers instinctively gravitate toward the stories that are the closest to being nightmares – the stories where real fears are exposed in ways that they haven't been in a long time. - -"The only good monster is a true monster." (The classic Dracula story) - -In my next post, I think I'll talk about one of the most popular "scary" stories of all time, the most popular of all time. What we are about to discuss relates to the classic and ubiquitous "creep story": the terrifying and mysterious stranger who will show up at the end of your stories, and then make you turn the page over and see what horrifying thing he wants with you. - -In this case, my guest is George Langelaan who is the author of these very scary stories: Monster Hunter, Horror at Castle Hill, and of course, The Werewolf of Castle Hill. George Langelaan is a master at the scary story – the sort of story where you really feel like you're on the edge, at the extreme end of what should be horror, and in the middle of something much more horrifying than you expected to see. - -When did "scary" stories start becoming such big and popular? And what do you think they represent that the more "realistic" horror stories don't? - -John Walker: George Langelaan is a master of the scary story, and he is an author who is especially adept at crafting scares and getting readers to engage with his scary stories – even though in most cases the actual horrors we are witnessing are very mild and/or far away in comparison to most of the monsters that are portrayed in his horror fiction. My personal favorite of Langelaan's story collections is Monster Hunter, because Monster Hunter is a collection where Lomalaan uses the very literal language of the scary story to portray the most frightening of horrors – monsters – on a very personal and primal level. - -I think the first "scary" story I ever heard, was actually in a horror anthology: the "Monster of the Week" story, written by a guy named Richard Matheson called "The Thing on the Doorstep." The story is really the quintessential "scary story," and it works so well in that format because it is so chilling and so realistic, that when you read the final paragraph – that is the end of "The Thing on the Doorstep" – you get goosebumps. The fact that it is that short – a story that runs from a few sentences to a few pages – and that Matheson is able to get that kind of emotional payoff is what really sets "The Thing on the Doorstep" and the "Monster of the Week" stories apart. It reminds me of a song by Jethro Tull: - -"Monster on my doorstep, you creep!" - -In order to find out more about this master of the "scary," I was curious to talk to John about what makes a "scary story." John, you are an author with a great deal of writing experience, and in this interview you mention how you are quite the "film geek" and how a movie is a "sort of movie in your head." And I wondered, which film in your brain would you most like to turn into a horror movie? - -John Walker: -======================================== SAMPLE 499 ======================================== -A new study reports that the human heart and brain are wired not only to share thoughts — but also action. - -Previous research reveals that both the human heart and brain are wired to cooperate to help us survive. Brain-to-brain communication may have a role in our ability to learn, to remember, and even to create art. - -Now researchers find that the brains of primates have been wired to coordinate actions in the womb. A team led by UC Berkeley neuroscientist Paul Fletcher, Ph.D., and including graduate student and first author John-Dylan Haynes, found that the activity of the fetus' brain areas responsible for coordinating movements, coordinated with the actions of the mother's brain areas responsible for planning movements. These "micro-movement" networks in the brain may have evolved in response to changes in the neural wiring during brain development. The brains of primates also show evidence of inter-regional brain connections. The authors say this study can help shed more light on the evolutionary origin of brain networks, and on our relationship with the environment. - -"We found a similar pattern of network connectivity in the human brain during early brain development of the mother and her fetus as we did during early brain development of our own species that led to the common ancestor of modern humans, chimpanzees and bonobos," says co-author Fletcher. To better understand these connections, the team plans to use brain imaging technology and other sophisticated techniques to study the brains of more humans and chimpanzees in the future. - -The research was published online today, March 2, 2013, in the journal PLOS Biology. - -The brain is constantly changing during development, which means we will be able to learn much new information as our brains change, the authors say. - -"These changes may be the reason that we become adept at solving complex problems and why, even after decades of living in the same environments, our brains may retain some of the traits of our common ancestors," says Haynes. - -Fletcher and Haynes are members of a team that included University of Oxford anatomist Joanne E. MacInnes, Ph.D., University of California, Berkeley neuro-scientist Michael R. Marlowe, Ph.D., and UC Berkeley neurophysician and neurosurgeon Richard W. Damasio, M.D., Ph.D., all of UC Berkeley; and UC Berkeley doctoral student Andrew B. Pimlott. - -The findings suggest that "the human brain evolved to accommodate the requirements of complex social interactions," the authors write. - -To study the patterns of human brain activity during early brain development, Haynes and Fletcher used an MRI scanner to measure the connections between the brain areas responsible for coordinating eye and ear movements and those responsible for coordinating movements of the entire body. The scientists also took skin biopsies of each fetus at nine and 28 weeks of gestation as well as postmortem brain scans from two non-human primates at eight and 14 weeks. - -In all three species, the researchers were able to find a large, non-overlapping pattern of neural activity that synchronized with the movements of all three limbs. - -In the human fetus, for instance, connections between areas of the brain responsible for coordinating the body movements and those responsible for coordination of other parts of the body — such as movement of the eyes — were highly synchronized at the nine week gestational age. The researchers found that these neural activity networks were also more or less synchronized when the brains of the fetus were 10 weeks of gestation. By 14 weeks of gestation, the researchers detected that these network patterns of brain activation were also more or less synchronized between the brain regions that regulate body movement and the regions that regulate eye movement and other sensory information. - -"It's intriguing to think of the fetal brain doing something quite different from its adult counterpart when it makes these very, very sensitive decisions," says Haynes. "The question is, are we ready to use this information to design better algorithms to make better decisions, and to make better decisions at all? It's not something we can ask now, with a child's brain and its development." - -Fletcher explains that the fetal brain is still relatively immature. "Now that we get into our postnatal years, we should be looking beyond the neural systems that regulate human behavior and start to look at all these complex systems that contribute to our life — to our health, cognitive ability and emotions," he says.<|endoftext|>Rochester Police are investigating a shooting that happened about 11 p.m. Wednesday (Aug. 31) on the 400 block of South Park Street. - -According to a report from the Rochester Police Department, an argument over loud music began and one person began shooting. - -There were no injuries reported.

That left six undrafted rookie free agents still available on the Saints roster. - -To determine each of the six undrafted rookies who will be active this Wednesday versus the Indianapolis Colts, let's take some time to break down each player's 2016 potential in an attempt to determine whether he can make an impact. - -If they each continue to perform the way they had in college this season (which means staying healthy and productive) this group could potentially be in line for a roster spot after training camp. - -1. Tim Wright, Defensive End, Iowa - -Wright was actually a sixth-round pick in 2015, but was released in August and went undrafted. He was not re-signed or signed this offseason. It's not easy to make it up as a sixth- or seventh-round pick for the NFL. While it's possible Wright could earn a roster spot in training camp, the expectation is he's a practice squad member who can contribute as a depth piece. - -2. Joe Grant, Offensive Tackle, Georgia Tech - -Like Wright, Grant was an offensive tackle coming out of college who was cut by a number of teams at different points last off-season. Grant is still a raw player, but he has the physical traits that a lot of teams like in an offensive tackle. - -3. Josh Carraway, Wide Receiver, Louisiana Tech - -Carraway was a former wide receiver who didn't live up to expectations at the NFL level. He's a long-striding receiver who could make an impact as a possession receiver in the NFL. - -4. J.P. Holtz, Tight End, Stanford - -Holtz has some of the best hands in the NFL and is a good blocker on the outside. He's the type of athlete that has a chance in the NFL, but probably not as a rookie. His development has been slow, but if he can't make the roster right away or earn a roster spot in training camp, he can earn a spot later on. - -5. Kenny Justice, Safety, San Jose State - -Justice is considered more of a deep safety than an inside backer in today's NFL. He can cover tight ends, wide receivers and running backs. While Justice has a little better speed than expected, he doesn't have enough athleticism to consistently make a big play. - -6. Trey Hendrickson, Cornerback, Kansas State - -Hendrickson was a fourth-round pick in 2015 despite being undersized. The 6-foot-0, 197-pounder was inconsistent in the NFL last season, but might be good enough to stick on the roster as a sixth or seventh-round safety. - -7. Tyler Matakevich, Wide Receiver, Penn State - -Mataketvitch was a fifth-round pick last season and is a big receiver, who could earn a roster spot as a sixth or seventh-round option. He is a good receiver, but not a great deep threat and might not be able to separate from defensive backs for most of his career. - -The six undrafted rookies I have listed above are far from guaranteed to make the team. There is still the possibility they could end up on Injured Reserve, or another team could sign them and make it to the 53-man roster before they're needed.<|endoftext|>From the opening moments we learn that our protagonists' pasts have been upended when they get knocked back into the past by mysterious attackers.
