Q: Can establish connection, but still get "connect: Network is unreachable" I have an Asus E402NA laptop. I installed Ubuntu 16.04 on it. At the end of the installation the installer crashed, but I am still able to boot and start up Ubuntu (not sure if this is helpful information, but that is not the problem I am concerned with right now). I can see wifi networks, I can connect (and it detects if I use an incorrect password). I see a connection when it gets established. However, when I try to go online, I cannot reach any sites and I cannot ping anything: $ ping 192.168.0.1 connect: Network is unreachable $ ping 8.8.8.8 connect: Network is unreachable I tried connecting using ethernet, but the effect is the same. It tells me a connection has been established, but I get the same results for any ping attempts. The same happens when I boot to a live usb, so I don't think it has anything to do with the installation. I tried to run Debian 9.5.0 live usb and the same thing happened when I connected via ethernet. Similarly for running Ubuntu 16.04 live usb. Here are the outputs of a few commands I ran on the installed Ubuntu 16.04: I ran netstat while connected to a wifi network. $ netstat -natp Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:631 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1336/cupsd tcp6 0 0 ::1:631 :::* LISTEN 1336/cupsd $ ifconfig -a enp1s0f2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 60:45:cb:bf:bd:2e UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 RX packets:6836 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:6836 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:507456 (507.4 KB) TX bytes:507456 (507.4 KB) wlp2s0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr f0:03:8c:8f:5d:15 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) $ route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface $ cat /etc/resolv.conf # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8) # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN $ cat /etc/network/interfaces # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) auto lo iface lo inet loopback Edit: When running sudo dhclient -v: $ sudo dhclient -v Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client 4.3.3 Copyright 2004-2015 Internet Systems Consortium.

A: Based on your ifconfig output, it looks like the connection is established at the OSI link layer, but that the interface is not assigned an IP address. There are several possible explanations for that - for example: * *your network does not use DHCP (implying that any other devices are configured with static IP addresses) *your network is configured to use DHCP, but the DHCP server is not providing an address to this device (perhaps due to a MAC based whitelist or blacklist) *a firewall is preventing DHCP from working (either disallowing DHCP discovery packets to exit the client, or disallowing DHCP responses from reaching it) The verbose output from sudo dhclient -v confirms that your client is at least initiating a DHCP discovery phase - however it terminates abruptly with the mysterious error Unable to set up timer: out of range Googling this specific error leads us to the following bug report isc-dhcp-client: Error 'Unable to set up timer: out of range' when system time too far in future, which suggests the problem is that the DHCP client gets confused when the system's hardware clock is out of whack with the DHCP server's. Correcting the clock offset should fix the issue.

Freehold acquisition of 36 x 2-bed and 6 x 1-bed flats for young and homeless people Completed summer 2016 New 30 year FRI Lease between FAH and YMCA Bedfordshire 25 minutes North of London High social value delivery Expected to exceed target returns In October 2015 FAH announced the acquisition by forward funding of the freehold of Midland House in Luton. Midland House is now a 78-place hostel for YMCA Bedfordshire, part of the broader YMCA organisation, the largest and oldest youth charity in the World and a delivery partner for the Prince's Trust. YMCA Bedfordshire, a Registered Provider, regulated by the Homes and Communities Agency in England has entered into arrangements to lease the Property from FAH. Deal Summary Freehold acquisition through a forward funding transaction, of an existing building undergoing conversion work to create 78 bed spaces in 36, 2-bed units and six 1-bed move-on flats. At ground floor there are training facilities and management offices. Adopts the FAH approach of separating asset ownership from operations and service delivery. Provision of significant social benefit through the housing and training of homeless and vulnerable individuals. Opportunity to work with the YMCA, a leading social impact organisation, active in multiple locations in the UK. Conversion works completed in June 2016. Residents arrived in July and August 2016, since when there have been no vacancies other than turn-over time between departing and arriving residents. Midland House in the centre of Luton, approximately twenty five minutes to the north of London, was originally constructed as offices and has been extended and refurbished to provide a 78-place hostel. With the exception of retaining the ground floor offices and training areas this involved full internal strip-out and the addition of a further floor to incorporate six, 1-bed flats for "move-on" accommodation. Social Delivery The Project enabled the expansion of YMCA Bedfordshire's activities to Luton through the provision of an additional 78 bed spaces catering for 16 to 65 year old homeless individuals, both men and women, with an emphasis on supporting the young. There are a range of training facilities providing life skills and delivery of the Prince's Trust 'Team' programme. Luton Council have a substantial need for young homeless accommodation, with more than 8,000 individuals and families on their waiting list, 800 in temporary accommodation and almost 100 in bed & breakfast, with over 500 being in the age category 16-25. The Project combines excellent social delivery with a robust financial outcome. FAH Service Company Limited has engaged extensively with YMCA Bedfordshire to ensure that the social delivery envisaged by this Project is achieved and to broaden the working relationship between FAH and the YMCA.

Q: Scheduling with yum-cron I'm trying to configure patch management with Spacewalk of all GNU/Linux machines in my organization, but I'm struggling a bit with the scheduling. Change Management has decided, that the dev/test environments should be patched every Tuesday at 5-7 in the morning, and production environments should be patched Thursday morning in the same time frame. Besides checking for, downloading and applying patches, I've added a script to reboot the server on kernel update, and a script to clean yum. I've placed those scripts in /etc/cron.weekly/ and configured anacrontab as such: 1 5 cron.daily nice run-parts /etc/cron.daily 7 5 cron.weekly nice run-parts /etc/cron.weekly My problem is that everything gets executed every day, and I think the problem is caused by the configuration file for yum-cron /etc/yum-cron.conf. I've tried to find information about how to configure this file, and the setting DAYS_OF_WEEK / days_of_week is obviously where the magic happens. The man page isn't really of any help either. My question is, how the F*** do I set the day of week to tuesday (2) or thursday (4)??? I've tried different variations like: DAYS_OF_WEEK=2 DAYS_OF_WEKK="2" days_of_week = 2 days_of_week = "2" And yet nothing seems to work the way I want it to. I have hunch that for CentOS 7 I have to use the lowercase days_of_week, and the uppercase for CentOS 6, but I'm not sure. Any inputs or ideas will be appreciated, and thanks in advance! A: Apparently yum-cron 3.4 in EL 7 removed /etc/sysconfig/yum-cron including the DAYS_OF_WEEK feature. I do not see something equivalent in /usr/sbin/yum-cron. Customize the config file (/etc/yum/yum-cron.conf) to your liking. At minimum, the default random_sleep is longer than your 2 hour window. Write and schedule your own script. #!/bin/sh # /usr/local/bin/updateandreboot # Wrapper for update and reboot # TODO does not respect /var/lock/subsys/yum-cron /usr/sbin/yum-cron /etc/yum/yum-cron.conf && \ /usr/bin/needs-restarting -r || \ /usr/sbin/shutdown -r now "Restarting for scheduled software update" As I am not aware of a day of the week schedule in anacron, schedule it in cron. # /etc/cron.d/autoupdate # 05:01 on Tuesday 1 5 * * 2 root /usr/local/bin/updateandreboot Also schedule a yum clean packages when desired. Remove yum-cron's default daily and weekly schedules. rm /etc/cron*/*yum*cron will do it, but these will come back when yum-cron package is updated. A: This may be distribution dependant but in RedHat the daily and hourly cronjobs for yum-conf only run if the yum-conf service is running. in /etc/cron.dail/0yum-daily.cron #!/bin/bash # Only run if this flag is set. The flag is created by the yum-cron init # script when the service is started -- this allows one to use chkconfig and # the standard "service stop|start" commands to enable or disable yum-cron. if [[ ! -f /var/lock/subsys/yum-cron ]]; then exit 0 fi # Action! exec /usr/sbin/yum-cron So just disable the service abd configure a standard cronjob as you require.

I believe that there is power in the tongue. I also believe that writing things down forces you to read and reread and read over again. Writing down my goals, doing the work, and letting God do his thang is gonna be my theme for 2018. There have been many times that I felt like I wasn't working hard enough with all the resources I've been blessed with. I'm very serious about that not happening again this year. I mean, I haven't put that much content out on a weekly basis like I had been when I first launched this blog, but I challenged myself to a 25 day self care challenge with new content for 25 days and I'm honestly killing it. I am deciding to write out my goals so that I can read them and let them weigh on me until i'm tired. What are your goals for the new year. Start thinking of them and come up with a plan that makes these goals doable. No pipe dreams this year! Be realistic.

Also inscribed on the jade slip was information from three deva patriarchs of the past, people who had long since perished, but who had cultivated the Sun-Moon Vast-Sky Incantation. That information contained tips and bits of enlightenment from those three patriarchs. Most of them expressed regret at not having the full technique. One of them even pointed out that the full technique would be powerful even after breaking through to the Demigod Realm! It truly was a domineering technique, and very different from other, ordinary deva-level Daoist magics. By refining the spiritual power of heaven and earth, one could create a sun and a moon inside oneself. When those heavenly bodies emerged out into the open, they would truly be a second sun and moon in the vast sky! It was a level of power that was shocking to even contemplate! The technique didn't require any specific foundation, only a deva cultivation base. It contained countless variations within it, and could be used in combination with any other technique. The main downside was that it only consisted of the first three levels…. Furthermore, the third level had been added by a past patriarch, and was therefore a derivative technique, and not authentic. The second level was the highest authentic level in the entire technique. Anyone who cultivated it would eventually have to change to another technique after reaching the mid Deva Realm, which was exactly what the other three patriarchs who had cultivated it ended up doing. "None of the other techniques will work for me, so I guess I'll pick this one…. Although it will only work for so long, considering that my apprentice is the Hell-Emperor, and an omnipotent genius, it's always possible that I might be able to work out the higher levels on my own." After a bit more thought, he gritted his teeth, grabbed the Sun-Moon Vast-Sky Incantation, and left the Starry Sky Pavilion. He reappeared moments later back in his residence, where he went into secluded meditation and poured himself into the study of his new technique. The more he learned about it, the more he realized it was truly astonishing. "This thing shouldn't be called the Sun-Moon Vast-Sky Incantation. It should be called the Sun-Moon Super-Overpowered Incantation! "The first three levels are devoted to summoning a moon inside oneself. After reaching the third level, that moon can emerge into the world to hang in the sky! "The missing middle levels are about summoning a sun…. "From what I can tell, the final three levels must be about bringing both the sun and the moon out into the open, and illuminating all creation with their brilliance!" Sighing, he set to work at cultivating the first level. In terms of the life force he needed to work on his Undying Blood, now that he had such a high status in the sect, it was easier for him to request large amounts of plants and vegetation that had life force in them. In fact, as a prime elder, he could set sect missions for apothecary cultivators in the sect to concoct medicine for him. Although he happened to be of the opinion that the medicinal pills concocted by others would be of lower quality, after wrestling with the issue for a while, he sighed and made up his mind. "I can't do the concocting myself. Whenever I do that, accidents happen. Now that the demigod patriarch is my direct superior, it would be a big headache if I caused some disaster." It was with a bit of regret that he decided to have lower-ranking disciples do the concocting for him. One upside was that it led to large amounts of pills flowing in, and allowed him to advance by leaps and bounds with his Undying Blood. His regret at not being able to personally make the pills could only be shoved down to the bottom of his heart. In the blink of an eye, three months passed. During that time, Bai Xiaochun focused only on cultivating his Undying Blood and the Sun-Moon Vast-Sky Incantation. As he did, he came to realize what it meant to occupy one of the highest positions in the sect, and have access to so many cultivation resources. In fact, he used so many resources that, if he had been back in the River-Defying Sect, he would have bled them dry. To the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect, though, such usage of resources was considered negligible. After all, back before the Great Wall had collapsed, the resources required to man it had vastly surpassed anything that Bai Xiaochun could match. Even that level of expenditure had not been a problem for the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect's reserves, which had been built up over tens upon tens of thousands of years. Another thing Bai Xiaochun came to realize was that the four demigod heavenly kings in the Wildlands actually couldn't compare at all to the demigods in the riversource sects of the Heavenspan River region, at least in terms of wealth. The resources at the disposal of the riversource sects vastly surpassed the heavenly kings. Of course, the Heavenspan River region wasn't without its weaknesses. There was something the Wildlands had that was sadly lacking the Heavenspan River. And that was… fighting spirit and valiance! In the Wildlands, soul cultivators lived hard and difficult lives. In contrast, the Heavenspan River cultivators were like flowers in a greenhouse. Whether it was in terms of bravery or ambition, they didn't even come close to comparing to the Wildlanders. Perhaps that was why the two sides had been at a deadlock for so long. Now that the Great Wall had fallen, it was difficult to say which side would have the advantage. It was a big headache to consider the matter for even a short time. Therefore, he put it aside and focused on his cultivation. Another thing that happened during the three months that passed was that his faction grew with shocking speed. Big Fatty Zhang and Xu Baocai had not wasted their years in the sect. Although they had conducted themselves with the utmost caution over the years, they had also worked hard to expand their network of contacts. It didn't take long for them to gather a group of disciples who had previously never had a chance to rise to prominence. They were the ones who formed the backbone of Bai Xiaochun's faction now that he was a prime elder. They even had nine Nascent Soul elders, one of them being Feng Youde. There were even more Core Formation and Foundation Establishment cultivators, and overall, they formed a very powerful group. After all, Big Fatty Zhang and Xu Baocai had gained a lot of experience back in Sky City, which they drew upon to grow their organization both quickly and with great strength. Li Xiandao followed through with his promise of compensation. Originally, he had planned to keep things low key, but after finding out the truth of the matter, he realized that if he didn't act decisively, the truce he had worked out would crumble, and his relationship with Bai Xiaochun would be grievously damaged. As a deva patriarch, he had many descendants, and therefore, he acted with brutal decisiveness. The first thing he did was deliver up the head of the Nascent Soul elder who had been the primary culprit. Then he crippled Li Yuansheng's cultivation base and locked him up in the very same prison where Big Fatty Zhang and Xu Baocai had been held. Bai Xiaochun had no complaints about how the matter was handled, and Big Fatty Zhang and Xu Baocai were both quite pleased. After all was said and done, the relationship between Li Xiandao and Bai Xiaochun ended up relatively warm, and the friction from the matter of the River-Defying Sect was smoothed over. At the same time, because of Bai Xiaochun's position, and the growth of his faction, there was no need for any requests or negotiations regarding his inn in Sky City. The Celestial Sky Society took the initiative to return it to him. The Celestial Sky Society had the same boss as many years ago. Trembling with fear, he personally went to visit Bai Xiaochun to handle matters. The man's heart was filled with endless sighs. Never could he have imagined that the same Bai Xiaochun with whom he had squabbled over resources in Sky City would, only a handful of decades later, become the sixth prime elder in the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect, a person of utmost power and authority. Bai Xiaochun had an audience with the boss of the Celestial Sky Society, but didn't say much. After all, he had learned a lot from them. In fact, it was his experiences with the Celestial Sky Society that had enabled him to deal with the Nine Serenities King's heir apparent back in Arch-Emperor City. And it was by copying their tactics that he routed the two celestial necromancers who had plotted against him. However, the fact that Bai Xiaochun didn't say much in the meeting caused the man's nervousness to mount, until he was soaked with sweat. Eventually, Xu Baocai gave him a good glare, frightening the man so much that he offered even more copious gifts of compensation than he had initially intended to. At that point, Big Fatty Zhang and Xu Baocai were finally pleased with the outcome. Bai Xiaochun now had a very solid foundation in the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect, and his faction was so big and powerful that people all over the Heavenspan River region had heard of them, including the other three riversource sects. Rumors even began to spread in the Wildlands about the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect's sixth deva, Bai Xiaochun. Many people gritted their teeth in frustration at how Bai Xiaochun seemed to move about so mysteriously. After all, he had roamed the Wildlands for many years, without a single person ever being able to track him down. Only the most powerful elites in the Wildlands knew who Bai Xiaochun really was, and they were all shocked by the rumors. That was especially true of the Grand Heavenmaster, who was struck speechless by the intelligence reports from the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect. Also in the Wildlands was an illusory river high in the sky, in the depths of which was a pitch-black palace. Bai Hao was there, clad in his imperial robes and wearing an imperial crown. Normally speaking, a cold expression covered his face. However, whenever he looked in the direction of the Starry Sky Dao Polarity Sect, his eyes shone with warmth and respect.

Inside Kim Kardashian, Kelsey Grammer's starry homes on sale Property formerly owned by reality TV star features five bedrooms and five bathrooms Published: December 31, 2019 14:29 Jack Flemming, Los Angeles Times Kim Kardashian Image Credit: Instagram Generally speaking, the summer is when LA's ultra-luxury real estate market reaches its apex. This year was no exception, as California had its priciest home sale ever when the Manor in Holmby Hills traded hands in July for a whopping $119.75 million (Dh439.7 million). Sales tend to slow down in the winter, but in the first week of December, a quintet of former celebrity homes hit the market. Ranging dramatically in size and style, their past tenants include actors, directors, a late game show host and a reality star. Kelsey Grammer's Malibu compound Kelsey Grammer shelled out $4.5 million in 1998 for this equestrian compound on five acres in Malibu.(The Agency) The most expensive of the bunch, this equestrian estate perched in the hills of Malibu was purchased by 'Frasier' star Kelsey Grammer for $4.5 million in 1998 and later sold. It's been waffling on and off the market for the last three years, but a December re-list brought its lowest price yet: $18.75 million. Spanning five acres in guard-gated Serra Retreat, the property boasts a 1940s French Country-inspired mansion, a guesthouse, riding ring, carriage house, multiple outbuildings and a six-stall barn for a total of nearly 14,000 square feet. Kelsey Grammer's Malibu compound. (The Agency) Highlights inside the home include a two-storey ballroom, wood-panelled library, movie theatre, wine cellar and a double-island kitchen designed by Wolfgang Puck. Outside, fruit orchards, rose gardens and lily ponds surround a swimming pool, tennis court, bathhouse and 17th century stone gazebo. Kelsey Grammer, 64, is best known for portraying Dr Frasier Crane in the sitcom 'Cheers' and its spin-off, 'Frasier.' He's won five Emmy Awards, three Golden Globe Awards and a Tony Award. Ed McMahon's Beverly Hills showplace In a gated community, the traditional-style home has six bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms in 7,000 square feet. (Realtor.com) Ed McMahon, the late game show host and comedian who served as Johnny Carson's late-night talk show sidekick for 30 years, picked up this property for $2.6 million in 1990 but eventually lost it two decades later after defaulting on $4.8 million in mortgages. Following roughly a year on the market, it recently relisted for $7.895 million. In the gated Summit community in the Beverly Hills Post Office area, the traditional-style home has since been remodelled. A whitewashed exterior gives way to chandelier-topped living spaces with tile and hardwood floors throughout the 7,000-square-foot floor plan. A scenic balcony hangs off the backside of the home, overlooking a swimming pool and spa sandwiched by manicured gardens. Canyon views can be seen in the distance. McMahon, who died in 2009 at 86, was a celebrated comedian, actor, game show host and talk show sidekick during his time in the entertainment industry. He appeared on 'The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson' for three decades, where he coined the now-famous phrase "Here's Johnny." Kim Kardashian West's Beverly Crest abode Verdant landscaping surrounds the Tuscan-style villa complete with five bedrooms and five bathrooms in 3,800 square feet. (Realtor.com) Kim Kardashian West barely managed to eke out a profit on this romantic Tuscan-style villa in the Beverly Hills Post Office Area. After paying $3.4 million for the home in 2010, she unloaded it three years later for $3.6 million, records show. Now, it's up for grabs at $5.695 million. Claiming half an acre on a quiet cul-de-sac, this property draws the eye with verdant landscaping across the grounds. Formal gardens front the two-storey home, and out back, tiered landscaping descends down the hillside. The house itself covers 3,800 square feet with five bedrooms, five bathrooms and living spaces with wrought ironwork and dark hardwood floors. Out back, a hilltop gazebo looks down on a lounge, covered patio, grassy yard and waterfall-fed pool. Kardashian West, 39, rose to fame alongside her family via the reality TV show 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians.' She married rapper Kanye West in 2014, and the pair have four children together. Elizabeth Banks' Hollywood Hills charmer Lattice windows and a brick chimney draw the eye outside the scenic hillside home. (Realtor.com) It was a relatively short stay in Hollywood Hills for actor-director Elizabeth Banks, who paid $659,000 for this home in 2004 and sold it three years later for $895,000. The charming two-storey spot just listed last week for $1.15 million. Lattice windows and a brick chimney bring storybook charm to the soft yellow exterior. Beamed ceilings and hardwood floors sandwich the open floor plan, which enjoys city, mountain and canyon views. The common spaces open to an expansive deck, which descends to a second viewing deck down below. In total, there are two bedrooms and three bathrooms in a cosy 1,400 square feet. Banks, 45, starred in 'Wet Hot American Summer,' 'Seabiscuit' and 'Man on a Ledge' before more prominent roles in the 'Hunger Games' and 'Pitch Perfect' franchises.

Q: how to sort the result by pandas.value_counts I want to count the number of student who got 0-5 grade in one dataset I use this function final_grade_num =pd.value_counts(final_grade) to get a result like 4.0 487 3.0 432 2.0 376 5.0 334 1.0 232 0.0 139 however, I want to get a sorted list like 0.0 139, 1.0 232...5.0 334 because I need to use this dataset to draw a plot plt.bar(range(0,6), final_grade_num) Is there any method to change, I tried to use sorted method, but the result shows it depends on the number of students, not grade A: value_counts() has a sort argument that defaults to True. Just set it to False and it will be sorted by value instead. df['col'].value_counts(sort = False).plot.bar(title='My Title') Or: df['col'].value_counts().sort_index().plot.bar()

| Auto Shows 90 Years of the '32 Ford Celebrated at the Petersen Automotive Museum Stars and famous cars were on hand at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the 90th anniversary of the '32 Ford. Stephan SzantaiWriter The Petersen Automotive Museum has played a key role in promoting California's rich car culture, and its hot rods in particular. Located on Los Angeles' famous Miracle Mile, it opened on June 11, 1994, thanks to the vision of magazine publisher Robert E. Petersen and his wife, Margie. The institution received a spectacular revamp in 2014, securing its status as one of the best automotive museums in the world. If you haven't been yet, well, you should definitely put it on your bucket list. Precisely 28 years after its grand opening, the museum honored the 90th Anniversary of the 1932 Ford with a memorable weekend of festivities, and a new holiday: June 11th, now known as "National Hot Rod Day." Mark your calendar! This year's celebration follows in the footsteps of other successful events meant to acknowledge this revered Ford model. Some might remember the 75th Anniversary at the Grand National Roadster Show in 2007, which highlighted the crème de la crème in Building No. 9. The Petersen Museum continued the tradition with their own 80th and 85th gatherings, in 2012 and 2017, respectively. Famous Cars and Famous Car People Fast forward to Saturday, June 11, 2022. The two-day happening began in the afternoon with the Deuce Gala. It celebrated the opening of Petersen's new Ross and Beth Myers Gallery, featuring a special exhibit called Ford Fever: The Deuce Turns 90. It welcomed ten of our country's most iconic '32s, such as the Bob McGee roadster, the Doane Spencer roadster, and the Ray Brown roadster (pictured above, from left to right), along with the Doyle Gammell coupe, well-known for its perfectly proportioned chopped top. Other notable entries included two AMBR (America's Most Beautiful Roadster) winners at the Grand National Roadster Show: Ermie Immerso's Orange Twist roadster, dated 1988, and Chip Foose's 0032 roadster, which debuted 12 years later. The crowd then gathered on the roof of the building for a buffet dinner, followed at 7:00 p.m. by the presentation of the Robert E. Petersen Hot Rod Icon Award by the Petersen Museum's Founding Chairman (and hot rod fanatic) Bruce Meyer. He and guest of honor Henry Ford III handed a neat award to Billy Gibbons, ZZ Top's frontman and a hardcore hot-rodder in his own right. The program continued with an auction, showcasing two electric guitars signed by Gibbons, and then the highlight of the evening: a live performance by Gibbons, backed by the Franky Perez Band—a magical moment for the roughly 300 people in attendance. Cruising Strong for 90 Years Activities resumed on Sunday morning, with the Petersen Museum's monthly Cars & Coffee gathering, featuring the Deuce Day Cruise-In, which took place on the top deck of the building's parking lot. As you might expect, a large pack of '32 Fords and their owners joined the shindig, and enjoyed a sunny day and complimentary pancake breakfast. Troy Ladd of Hollywood Hot Rods fame brought a couple of stellar examples, specifically his own Dewar coupe, an incredible hot rod survivor that had been stored from 1961 until Ladd found it in 2018, and Pat Gauntt's chopped three-window, the winner of the Al Slonaker award at the 2022 Grand National Roadster Show. Several hot-rod luminaries enjoyed the morning, including longtime journalist Pat Ganahl, who drove his gorgeous '32 roadster. The Deuces shared the space with a handful of other rods and customs—all in all, a great way to spend a few hours on a Sunday. Thanks to the Petersen Museum team led by Bruce Meyer for another stellar hot rod-oriented weekend. See you in five years for the 95th Anniversary of the 1932 Ford. Highlights From the Deuce's Big Day The 515-hp, Roush V8-equipped '32 Ford Victoria on loan from ace musician Eric Clapton now sits prominently in the Petersen Museum's new Ross and Beth Myers Gallery. Hollywood Hot Rods built an amazing three-window coupe for customer Pat Gauntt. It won the Al Slonaker award at the 2022 GNRS in Pomona last January. Paul Gommi owns a great collection of jalopies, including this '32 Ford roadster. With a history that harkens back to the 1940s, it even competed at the dry lakes from 1948 to 1952. Tom's Tub, the '32 Ford phaeton created in 1982 by Street Rodder magazine founder Tom McMullen, was the guest star of a notorious 1984 Van Halen video, Hot for Teacher. You don't often see '32 Ford RPUs (roadster pickups). This stellar example with Ford Boss 351 power belongs to Don Lindfors. Bruce Meyer's fleet of Deuce hot rods includes the Lobeck-Coonan-Bauder roadster, which became recognized when Barry Lobeck modified it in the mid-1970s. The QuadraDeuce has evolved visually since it was first built by Summit in 1995. Its claim to fame: being the first all-wheel drive '32 roadster. Brad Smith purchased his '32 Ford Tudor in 1957, and he still owns it today. 16-year-old Smith paid $65 for it at the time. A 350ci Chevy V-8 topped with a 471 Dyers supercharger equips Lou Stands' Deuce. The engine delivers in the neighborhood of 420 horsepower. Augie Esposito won one of the four show awards on Sunday. Power for the beautiful 2-inch-chopped '32 Ford coupe comes from a '58 283ci Corvette mill. The supercharged three-window Deuce driven by John Barnes has a long history, having been drag raced between 1951 and 1954. Munster Truck: That's what Bret Blackburn calls his daily-driven '32 Ford hauler, chopped 2-1/2 inches and channeled 5 inches. It relies on a 283ci Chevy V-8. Watch!

'Shocking' lack of progress on Brexit, says IAG boss IAG chief executive Willie Walsh said this uncertainty was bad for the British economy Brexit talks have made a "shocking" lack of progress which will hurt Britain's economy over the coming months, the chief executive of British Airways' owner, IAG, said in the company's annual report. Britain is due to leave the European Union on March 29, but Prime Minister Theresa May has not yet secured a deal that Britain's parliament will accept. IAG chief executive Willie Walsh said this uncertainty was bad for the British economy. "I think it is inevitable that Brexit will have a greater impact in the months ahead. It has been quite shocking to get so far in the political process without having any real clarity about the future," Walsh said in the firm's annual report. "All the credible forecasts I've seen predict that Brexit will have a negative economic impact in the short to medium term that is likely to damage consumer confidence and act as a further drag on business investment." However, IAG judged that even in a no-deal scenario, "Brexit will have no significant long-term impact on the group." IAG Chairman Antonio Vazquez said the firm was confident it would be able to comply with relevant ownership and control rules after Brexit. IAG, which owns Spanish airlines Iberia and Vueling and Aer Lingus in addition to British Airways, has faced questions of how its shareholder structure will comply with EU rules after Brexit. After Brexit, British shareholders will no longer count towards an EU requirement that airlines must be majority-owned by EU nationals in order to fly between two locations within the bloc. The EU has proposed a provisional arrangement to mitigate the impact of a no-deal Brexit on airlines, allowing a six-month window to fully meet ownership requirements.

February 2nd, 2021 | 07:10 CET BYD, dynaCERT, NIO - this is the solution! The share of e-cars compared to diesel and gasoline vehicles can currently still be described as low. However, the German government is promoting electromobility with, among other things, a purchase premium and the expansion of electric charging stations. In addition, manufacturers are continuously working on optimizing their vehicles and improving the range of the batteries. One can assume that e-cars will further boom in the coming years and replace cars with combustion engines. The plans of politicians to allow only e-cars from 2030 confirms this thesis. Whether or not electric vehicles save CO2 compared to conventional cars remains unanswered. But one Company has been working on a technology that is both logical and groundbreaking. time to read: 2 minutes | Author: Stefan Feulner ISIN: CA26780A1084 , CNE100000296 , US62914V1061 "[...] We are committed to stay as the number one Canadian and global leader in the Hydrogen-On-Demand diesel technology [...]" Jim Payne, CEO, dynaCERT Inc. Stefan Feulner The native Franconian has more than 20 years of stock exchange experience and a broadly diversified network. He is passionate about analyzing a wide variety of business models and investigating new trends. Immediate changeover pointless Currently, the climate policy aims at the immediate disappearance of fossil fuels. It is essential to organize the reduction of CO2 emissions as wisely as possible. That means reducing where the reduction costs are lowest to get as far as possible with the limited resources available for CO2 avoidance. To organize such a policy, it is not insignificant to know where and to what extent potential savings exist and how they can be lifted cost-effectively. In this respect, the question of whether electric vehicles can save CO2 is important. Opinions on this matter differ widely. On the pulse of time Before everything is shuffled around, might it be wiser to consider reducing both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions right now? The Canadian Company dynaCERT has been asking this question for 16 years. The Company has managed to use its system to reduce the parameters by 20%. The technology, called "HydraGEN," uses a patented electrolysis system to convert distilled water into hydrogen and oxygen gases produced on demand. dynaCERT's goal is to reduce the number of greenhouse gases released when carbon-based fuels are burned. The in-house programmed software "HydraLytica" allows to record and analyze the fuel savings. Other features such as fleet management, route planning, driver safety and load management are to be added gradually. The Company's technology is currently already being used in trial runs in more than 400 vehicles. Technology works In theory, it would already be technically possible today to equip every passenger car with dynaCERT technology. However, this is still a pipe dream. Currently, the sales team is concentrating on fleet operators and logistics companies, heavy construction machinery, and diesel generators in shipping and trains. In the long term, dynaCERT's goal is to lead the new hydrogen economy in Canada while partnering with other high-level industry leaders to further leverage and expand the Company's environmental technology product line currently available on the global market. Thus, last week's announcement should be viewed as a milestone in dynaCERT's recent corporate history. Verra, the organization that manages the world's most extensive greenhouse gas program, approved dynaCERT's draft notice to secure carbon credits through the use of dynaCERT's patented HydraGEN technology and HydraLytica Telematics technology on a global scale. Currently, dynaCERT's stock, which is traded with good volume in Germany, is trading at the equivalent of EUR 0.46. Should the share price break above the repeatedly tested EUR 0.50 mark, the next price target would be the 2020 high at EUR 0.93. Strong figures Chinese e-car manufacturer NIO has presented its delivery figures for January. And they are sensational compared to the same period last year. NIO delivered 7,225 vehicles, an increase of 352.1% compared to the same period the previous year and a record month so far. This figure included sales of 2,720 units of the ES6, the 5-seater electric SUV, and 1,660 units of the ES8, the Company's 6- to 7-seater electric SUV. In December, 7007 units were sold; thus, the growth had slowed down. The reason could be the somewhat weakening purchasing power of Chinese consumers. The Chinese competitor, BYD, presented strong figures in 2020, selling just under 41,000 units of the flagship model, Han. This year, BYD wants to expand its range with a premium brand. Analyst firm Nomura acknowledged the new strategy by raising the price target to HKD 300, which corresponds to an increase of almost 80% compared to the last judgment. dynaCERT, Plug Power, Nikola - Will hydrogen be the comeback of 2022? Electromobility is an important building block for reducing CO2 emissions. However, batteries are not efficient enough due to their limited range and long charging times, especially in heavy-duty traffic. The most promising technology is hydrogen. However, after a veritable hype last year, many values experienced an abrupt crash after it became clear that the necessary infrastructure was not yet ready. But in 2022, the course could slowly be set, and hydrogen stocks could make the comeback of the year. We took a closer look at three promising candidates. Bayer, First Hydrogen, NEL: This is how innovative investing works! Innovation pays off - especially on the stock market. That is because innovative products generate price fantasy, which can generate rich returns on the stock market within a very short period of time. In addition to classic trend themes, such as hydrogen, established companies can also score with innovations. We present three stocks and explain whether they offer opportunities or not. Commented by André Will-Laudien on January 4th, 2022 | 11:30 CET Nel, Plug Power, First Hydrogen, FuelCell Energy - Hydrogen versus Tesla! The year 2021 must be defined as the real dawn of electric mobility. Worldwide, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of electric vehicles sold. According to Statista, the shares of the total German passenger car population in 2021 rose to no less than 1.22% of registered vehicles. 3 years earlier, it was only 0.25%. There has been real movement in the new registration figures, with the share of hybrid and purely electric vehicles now at 6.9% and 6.7%, respectively. Therefore, the number of e-vehicles will gradually increase, as every 16th newly registered vehicle no longer has an internal combustion engine. However, after the 2021 climate conference in Glasgow, there was another political commitment to a progressive technology: hydrogen propulsion!

The boats were hoisted up, the yards braced forward, and away we bowled―one man less. cara dapat topup free maxis 2018,'Of course he is here; I would not dream of giving a party without him. He tells me I have a pure psychic hand, and that if my thumb had been the least little bit shorter, I should have been a confirmed pessimist, and gone into a convent.'Rio is a small Mediterranean; and what was fabled of the entrance to that sea, in Rio is partly made true; for here, at the mouth, stands one of Hercules' Pillars, the Sugar-Loaf Mountain, one thousand feet high, inclining over a little, like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. At its base crouch, like mastiffs, the batteries of Jose and Theodosia; while opposite, you are menaced by a rock-founded fort.Though the clew-defying mysteriousness of Isabel's narration, did now for the time, in this particular mood of his, put on a repelling aspect to our Pierre; yet something must occupy the soul of man; and Isabel was nearest to him then; and Isabel he thought of; at first, with great discomfort and with pain, but anon (for heaven eventually rewards the resolute and duteous thinker) with lessening repugnance, and at last with still-increasing willingness and congenialness. Now he recalled his first impressions, here and there, while she was rehearsing to him her wild tale; he recalled those swift but mystical corroborations in his own mind and memory, which by shedding another twinkling light upon her history, had but increased its mystery, while at the same time remarkably substantiating it.Quitting those recumbent rocks, you still ascended toward the hanging forest, and piercing within its lowermost fringe, then suddenly you stood transfixed, as a marching soldier confounded at the sight of an impregnable redoubt, where he had fancied it a practicable vault to his courageous thews. Cunningly masked hitherto, by the green tapestry of the interlacing leaves, a terrific towering palisade of dark mossy massiness confronted you; and, trickling with unevaporable moisture, distilled upon you from its beetling brow slow thunder-showers of water-drops, chill as the last dews of death. Now you stood and shivered in that twilight, though it were high noon and burning August down the meads. All round and round, the grim scarred rocks rallied and re-rallied themselves; shot up, protruded, stretched, swelled, and eagerly reached forth; on every side bristlingly radiating with a hideous repellingness. Tossed, and piled, and indiscriminate among these, like bridging rifts of logs up-jammed in alluvial-rushing streams of far Arkansas: or, like great masts and yards of overwhelmed fleets hurled high and dashed amain, all splintering together, on hovering ridges of the Atlantic sea,―you saw the melancholy trophies which the North Wind, championing the unquenchable quarrel of the Winter, had wrested from the forests, and dismembered them on their own chosen battle-ground, in barbarous disdain. 'Mid this spectacle of wide and wanton spoil, insular noises of falling rocks would boomingly explode upon the silence and fright all the echoes, which ran shrieking in and out among the caves, as wailing women and children in some assaulted town. She had a free roving commission. According to her papers she might go whither she pleased―whaling, sealing, or anything else. Sperm whaling, however, was what she relied upon; though, as yet, only two fish had been brought alongside.

(4) This is a successful action to enforce any liability under this section, so the costs of the action together with reasonable attorney's fees as determined by the court, … shall be awarded to Plaintiffs upon Plaintiffs' motion to be filed within 30 days after this Court sets forth its order determining damages. [The Palmers] criticized an online retailer for not delivering a less-than-$20 order in December 2008…. According to Jennifer Palmer, the original order consisted of "a perpetual-motion desk toy and a bendable smiley-face keychain" that were to be Christmas gifts to her from her husband John. After repeatedly attempting to contact the company by phone and e-mail, the couple reached a customer representative, who claimed that the items had never been paid for and had been cancelled. By February 2009, Jennifer Palmer posted a review on RipoffReport.com lambasting the company and its poor customer service. Over three years later, her husband John Palmer received an e-mail demanding that the review be deleted within 72 hours or that he pay $3,500 as he was in violation of the company's "non-disparagement clause" of its terms of service. However, such a term did not appear in the Terms of Sale and Use that the Palmers had agreed to when they placed their order in 2008. When the Palmers refused to pay or take down the review, KlearGear sent a collection agency to them for this money, which damaged their credit by August 2012. Perhaps they are looking for still more negative publicity, or eager to pay still more in damages and attorney fees. See also the post on the Public Citizen blog about the case (Public Citizen's Paul Alan Levy represented the Palmers).

Mr & Mrs Smith Directed by: Doug Liman Written by: Simon Kinberg Starring: Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Vince Vaughn, Adam Brody, Kerry Washington Released: June 9, 2005 If your husband/wife was a secret agent would you know? Well that's the case for both John Smith (Pitt) and Jane Smith (Jolie), if that is their real names. They've been married for "five or six years" and have managed to hide their true occupation from their partner. I surprised they weren't more suspicious with all the inter-state conferences and rumblings in the middle of the night. Their cover is about to be blown however when they are each assigned the same target, a young kid by the name of Benjamin Diaz (Brody). John and Jane's relationship was already a little rocky but now it's about to get outright nasty. Each thinks that they have been secretly used by the other to obtain classified information. Now it's personal! If Mr & Mrs Smith is a comedy, then it's quite funny. There are some humorous scenes that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt share with a therapist. There are also some funny lines from a fellow agent named Eddie (played by Vince Vaughn). I'm not usually a fan of either Pitt or Jolie but they unexpectedly work well together as a comedic duo. Their sarcasm is spot on. If Mr & Mrs Smith is an action flick, you'll be sorely disappointed. There is one scene where Pitt and Jolie are fired upon a hundred times and are uninjured. Yet when they remove their bullet proof vests, it is littered with bullet marks. How did every bullet manage to hit them in the chest but not anywhere else? Further more, there's a scene in which Pitt and Jolie fire at each other with huge bazookas and other explosive devises. They are clearly trying to kill each other which is why it's such a cop-out when the two come face to face with a pistol and don't have the "heart" to kill one another. I also have a problem with the underlying premise behind this adventure. The two agencies want Mr & Mrs Smith killed because they have just realised they are married and think they could inadvertently spill information to the other. Firstly, what kind of dodgy background checks are they doing? Secondly, why are the two agencies working together to kill them? Doesn't this contradict why they want them eliminated in the first place? The limitations in the screenplay are off set by the good direction from Doug Liman. If you don't know of him, Liman is a great director. He's got style and his film's always have a fresh, fast look to them. Many will have seen his last effort, The Bourne Identity, but my own favourite was 1999's Go. Liman also directed the very first episode of TV's teen drama The O.C. Fans of that show will enjoy the funny cameo in Mr & Mrs Smith of the witty Adam Brody. I've had two people point out how much bus stop advertising there has been for this film. Posters are everywhere and 20th Century Fox are expecting big things. It's slightly better than your average Hollywood summer blockbuster but that's as positive of an endorsement as I'm prepared to give.

Home Cuckold Wizard Adventure r17 Chapter 75 Talk with The Goddess Chapter 75 Talk with The Goddess This chapter about talking about the problem of Minato. The presence of the priests and Alvin and the others had moved away from the room. "Well, I guess we can finally get down to business" As soon as she said that, the Miko's presence changed. The motherly calmness was gone, and an intimidating atmosphere took over. Shinji felt an overwhelming difference in magic power that made him feel as if his body was being crushed. With all the strength he could muster to keep his legs from trembling, Shinji endured the intimidation. As long as he didn't get permission to raise his head, he could only maintain the status quo. "...Good. Raise your head" "...Hah" With permission, Shinji raised his head. The Miko Arian met his gaze. Shinji waits for her to speak as he gazes into her emotionless, inorganic eyes. "... You killed my apostle. If you have an excuse, I'm all ears" Shinji decided to place a ray of hope that he would not be punished without question. He took a deep breath, looked back into Arian's eyes, and opened his mouth. "I was just trying to shake off the flames. He was obsessed with my woman. So, I'm not going to shut up and let him steal her. I was attacked, so I fought back" "You didn't have to kill him" "It was necessary. I'm not relieved just by breaking his heart. He might come back with stronger companions to take revenge. He might increase the range of what he can charm with his eyes. As long as he has those eyes, it's too dangerous to keep him alive" Shinji immediately denied Arian's words that seemed to condemn him. Arian glared at Shinji with a look of displeasure. It was as if she was saying, "If you want to withdraw, now is the time". A few moments of silence passed. "...Good. Then I'll give you a command ...I'm going to make Flair your companion, and you're going to lead your life as before. That is all. "I want you to wait, Arian-samaaaa!!!" The heavy atmosphere of the past dissipated, and Arian said with a very beautiful and gentle smile. At about the same time, Flair appeared out of nowhere and fell flat in front of Arian. The sudden turn of events left Shinji with a dumbfounded look on his face. "What do you need to wait for? I don't want to hear anything but 'yes' from you" "The man there is the one who humiliated me...!" "I know. But it's the result of your negligence, isn't it? I'm not involved. Rather, I appreciate the fact that you've taken the initiative" "If, if that's the case, could you remove the lewd crest?" "Of course" Flair crumpled to the floor with a thud. Arian didn't even look at her. Finally, Shinji rebooted and his expression returned to normal. "Maybe you're... the goddess herself?" "Yes. I have temporarily borrowed the body of the Miko Arian. I am the Goddess Arian. I am Goddess who manages the world" In the face of the miracle of the goddess's descent, Shinji's curiosity as a wizard overcame his fear and awe. He knew he was being disrespectful, but he didn't want to miss the opportunity to continue the conversation. "I am honored to be able to speak directly with you. I would like to know the true meaning of what you just said...!" From the perspective of the goddess Arian, Shinji's attitude was disrespectful. However, if one looked inside Shinji's mind, one would find respect. The goddess Arian felt good about Shinji wanting to ask and answer questions on that basis. "You...! You are disrespectful to Arian-sama~noja!" "Very well. Flair, prepare my tea. I'll talk to him" Goddess Arian said, and in an instant a round table and two round chairs appeared in front of Shinji and Goddess Arian. "Arian-sama...!" "Flair, what is your response?" "...Yes..., I understand" The goddess Arian sat down on a round chair and recommended Shinji to face her. Flair reluctantly disappears. She returned to get a drink, as Arian had requested. Shinji sat down in front of the goddess Arian as she asked him to. "I like you a little. I hadn't planned on telling you this but I will satisfy your curiosity as a wizard" "Thank you" The goddess Arian put on her best smug face. "There are several worlds that I control. Including this world where you live and the world where the spirits live. The distance between worlds is very close, and with a little effort, it is possible to travel between worlds. >Summoning Spirits> is a good example" Shinji listened in silence, trying not to miss a single word. "There are many other worlds besides the one I control. Naturally, there are worlds outside of my control. I will also deal with any invasion from those other worlds. The summoning of the apostle Minato is one of those countermeasures. There are other apostles, but... the common request is to defeat the monster of unique monster. That monster called the black unique monster is a lead soldier that has been embedded with factors from other worlds" The scale of the story was too large for Shinji to say anything. "They breed black monsters and kill people. You can think that as the number of lives forms, I control decreases and the number of unique monster increases, my power will decrease. They attack me from the inside while blocking my hands with a massive invasion from the outside. It's a good strategy, even for the enemy. So, I decided to reincarnate people from other worlds that I control. While moving from one world to another, I wanted to give them a factor in their body that could extinguish the factor of the unique monster, and have them defeat the monster. Even if a person who does not have the factor defeats the monster, the monster will just leave the body and live in another body somewhere else" The goddess Arian said that since it was not possible to attach a factor to a living person, she would give them a factor after death and have them reincarnated. "Fortunately, there was a world where there were many people who yearned for this world, so that helped. Also, the factor I gave has a certain property. It is a characteristic that my factor will be passed on to those who defeat the apostles" She muttered, "The factor intervening in the system that makes a person stronger when he or she defeat a monster." This means that Shinji, who killed Minato, also has the goddess's factor in him. "So, even a fool had a role to play. Fortunately, the role of the fool passing the factor to a better person. As an adventurer, I want you to continue to take the initiative in defeating monster, especially unique monster if there is any talk of them. For the sake of the world. I look forward to working with you, Apostle Shinji" Shinji's face tightens thanks to the uncompromising smile. It's not unreasonable to feel reluctant to say yes when he has no choice but to say yes. "I've also prepared a reward for you. The advanced payment is having Flair as your companion. It seems have become a habit for Flair to be held by you, so please take good care of her" "A, Arian-samaaa! That's not true~noja! It's the tea~noja!" Flair came back and protested while serving tea, but the goddess Arian did not care. "Ara. Don't lie to me, Flair. I'm sure you were thinking, 'I love your cock~ ♡ I want him to cum inside me again~ ♡'" The goddess Arian read out her feelings at the time, and Flair crouched down again. (Goddess-sama, you're a bully... but you know exactly how I feel) Flair also wants to abuse Shinji for some reason. She and Goddess Arian looked at each other and nodded at each other, as if they understood each other. Goddess Arian took a sip of her tea and smiled. "Flair's tea is delicious. ...Well, I stayed longer than I thought I would. It was a fun time. See you again, Apostle Shinji" "Thank you very much for everything. I will do everything I can to help" "Good. I look forward to it" The goddess Arian seemed satisfied with Shinji's reply, but then her presence changed. The atmosphere was softened, and the sparkle returned to her eyes. The Goddess Arian had left the room and switched to the consciousness of the Miko Arian. Shinji had a good impression of the goddess Arian, who was much easier to talk to than he had expected. At least enough to make him think about accepting the request to defeat the unique monster, the role of the apostle, as long as it was not too much to ask. He's also curious about the Goddess's reward. "...Then... The Miko Arian prays for the safety of the apostle Shinji-sama..." Shinji replied to Arian, who bowed gently to him. Flair-chan crying as the Goddess teases her. Minato's Charm Eyes were not given to him by the Goddess, but by a skill he developed when he was reincarnated, so it is outside Goddess jurisdiction. There was no problem if Minato had used it properly, gathering strong party members and living an adventurer's life defeating unique monster as often as he could. Shinji-kun was appointed as an apostle. Instead, he got Flair. He didn't make a contract with her, so his magical power didn't change. She's like a summoned beast.

Alli Price has got her business name down pat…she really is a Motivating Mum. Though I've only had the pleasure of talking to her once or twice on the phone before, and have had a lot less time that I would like available to engage with the Motivating Mum Facebook page and website, through what I have seen, I have found Alli an inspiration and look forward to getting to know her better. A certified professional life coach (ahhh now I understand the great inspiration!), she's based in Melbourne, pictured here with her cute girls Amelie, 5 and Freya, 1 (nearly 2) and has run her business for 5 years. I was sitting at home one day on my own, looking after bub and trying to run my coaching business. It was so lonely and a little depressing so I decided to start the Businessmums' Networking Lunches – in an attempt to get out and get some intelligent conversation and also expand my network. It turned out there were a lot of mums at home feeling just as I was! Never out of bed before ten, worked as a waitress, living in London and travelled the world at will, stayed out late and saw loads of friends! Still try to stay in bed as late as possible but am losing that battle, still up late (usually 12am) but it's because I'm typing like a maniac. Have never worked so hard and so constantly in my life. Furthest I get from home are the playgrounds but am finding my fulfillment in my beautiful girls (well, most of the time) and running a business where I get to feel amazing every day as I'm helping people. Do you find your previous qualifications relevant to your life now? I find the qualifications so relevant as my coaching course taught me so many amazing coping techniques, taught me how to listen and ask great questions and also challenged me to work out what was most important to me. How natural I would be at it. I was never maternal and had no experience with young kids (aside from a little babysitting) so I was quite happy at how well I eased in to it. Did anything surprise you about starting a business? Just how much I would love it – there is nothing else I would rather be doing in the world! What are your greatest wishes for your children and your business? My greatest wish for my children is that they follow their hearts and lead adventurous and fantastical lives. My greatest wish for my business is that it continues to grow (possibly to other countries in addition to Oz and the UK) so that I can continue helping mums everywhere. Selling out my Mummy Mentoring Festival (where high profile women in business donate phone mentoring sessions for regular mums to buy) in 4 hours and making $1 200 for a new charity, Support for Mums. A challenge you are tackling? Slowing down. I am very spontaneous and if I have what I feel is a great idea, I will have it implemented in days. I have been trying to slow down and schedule implementation of these ideas to ensure I don't burn out! Starting a business is not a quick fix if you need to make money quickly, it can take a long time to start earning. Read as much as you can – blogs, newsletters, articles – try and learn one thing a day. Before starting in social media, Google the etiquette of how to interact. What is one of your favourite resources? I love the workbook The Artists Way – it is amazing if you're trying to work out what you want to do with life, encouraging your creativity and also for just stopping and appreciating life while it speeds by. What type of work does your partner do? He's a kids soccer coach. My boyfriend is fabulously supportive and very interested in what I do. Even my 5 year old daughter talks about what I do and answers the phone for me. Can you share a favourite Professional Parents business? Picking a business is like picking a fave child – can't be done! I have a desk nestled in a huge window in the lounge room which makes it lovely, light and bright. I am looking forward to the day I can have all my things on my desk and a plant but my 2 year old jut pulls everything down so it's pretty sparse. Working from the minute I get up to the minute I go to bed: breakfast, oldest to school, depending on the day a mix of housework, lunch, sending emails, looking after bubs, school pick up, dinner, bath, bed, back to the computer while watching TV and then bed about 12am! I love being able to be home for my kids, take them to activities, hear their stories. I also love the opportunity to build something that is mine, to be creative, to continually learn. I also love being able to build something that helps people who need it, as opposed to working and making money for a big company that already has more than enough money. A myth about mums in business that constantly annoys me is that we're all home making bibs. People constantly underestimate the experience, skill, intelligence, creativity and passion that mums in biz possess. Do your children go to school/daycare/childminding? My 5 year old is in preps (am still getting used to the new routine) and my 2 year old is in Nursery 2 days a week – yays! Thank so much for your time Alli. Make sure you check out the wonderful Motivating Mum website and Motivating Mum Facebook page. Recently I had the pleasure of meeting Carly Tribe who is working alongside Alli to provide Motivating Mum Brisbane events. Wendy Tadokoro – Organising Works!

Kulangār/ Kolangar (Dari: کلنگار, Pashto: کلنګار) is a village in Pul-i Alam District, Logar province, Afghanistan. Name The folk etymology behind the name Kulangār is for it to having to do with a story about a crane (Persian: kulang, کلنگ). The more likely origin of the name however are the Dardic words kul meaning "tribe" and aṅgār meaning "fire", making up the meaning "fire tribe". This origin may be a relic of the Dardic languages native to the region in pre-Islamic times. The Shrine of Malik Sabz Ali In Kulangar lies the shrine of Malik Sabz Ali ibn Malik Yusuf (died 1541 CE). The site is a popular place of pilgrimage, attracting visitors from around the province.

Cool Schools: Elementary school recognized at PLC model school By: Abby Lutz Posted: Feb 22, 2018 10:55 AM EST GOSHEN, Ind. -- Uniting as teachers for the future of the students is the focal point of Jefferson Elementary School in Goshen. If you stepped inside Jefferson ten years ago, you'd see a very different environment than you see today. "Everyone kind of did their own thing," said Melissa Highley, a third-grade teacher. "You were in your own classroom, you were doing your own thing." Now the dynamic has changed with the implementation of a PLC, or professional learning community. A PLC is a process where educators collaborate and research to achieve better results for the students. Utilizing the PLC model has been a work in progress for the staff at Jefferson since 2010 when groups of teachers started looking into the idea. At first, it seemed unlikely. "We were like there is no way that this is going to happen," said Tricia Brickner, the instructional coach at Jefferson. "It was so overwhelming to us to get all of these structures in place." But over the years the school has worked to set the culture that teachers are always learning too. The staff took the process step by step refining their methods until it worked. "We've kept implementing the different systems that go in place with a professional learning community, whether it's collaboration or giving common assessments to the kids or providing interventions," said Principal Curt Schwartz. That work has lead to a sense of community within the walls of Jefferson. Megan Stanton teaches second grade at the school. She says after years of searching for a job within her own community, she decided to branch out to other areas. Although she was reluctant at first, she says the staff at Jefferson made her feel welcome and loved. Even hanging a flag from her alma mater, Grace College, on what would be her classroom. "I knew no one from here and yet I felt loved and cared for by the Jefferson community right away," said Stanton. All the teachers agree, the staff is a team. "Everybody just roots for you," said Katie Seel, a first- year kindergarten teacher. "Whether it's your first year teaching or you've got something going on during the weekend. And that love and that sense of community… it just, it's an awesome feeling." "I can go to any teacher and get any help that i need," said another first-year teacher, Ali Cook. "We're all working for one goal and I love that." And as the unity has developed within the teachers, the school has also seen growth in the students. "When we first started this our percentages were somewhere in the 60 percent when we would go into interventions. And after talking and improving our practice, our students when we come out of tier one there's 85 percent of students who are where they need to be," said Brickner. This year, those years of hard work gained recognition. Jefferson was recognized as a PLC model school for other schools interested in implementing the process. This makes it one of only three elementary schools in the state to achieve that title. "I feel good for my staff because that's at the heart of what we're doing," said Schwartz. "It's their blood, sweat and tears that they've put into this process that has allowed them to reach the student performance at the level that they have now." Schwartz says he regularly hears from anyone who spends time with the staff that there is a unique dynamic among them. He believes his main role in keeping the school moving forward is to keep that dynamic alive through the people he hires, making sure their heart matches the heart of the staff. "Because the processes that we have in place are going to help whether it's a first year teacher or a veteran teacher," he said. "Those systems are going to help those teachers refine their craft and what they're doing, but I can't change their heart." Achieving the PLC model status doesn't mean the work is done. The school still has plans to move forward and grow for the betterment of the students and the staff. "It's not a matter of having obtained a certain status or a certain recognition," said Schwartz. "It's about continuing to refine the systems that we have in place to make them the most impactful that we can."

The following suit, for the seduction of a daughter, was tried before the above Court, on the 17th of March last. The circumstances, as detailed in evidence, are of a singular and aggravated character, exhibiting the most incredible infatuation on one side, and unparalleled hypocrisy on the other. The damages were laid at 50,000 rupees. Mr. Fergusson addressed the Court on behalf of the plaintiff. To spare as much as possible the feelings which all present must endure upon a recapitulation of the horrible consequences attending the case, he said he would content himself with simply laying the facts which he was obliged to lay before their Lordships, for the purpose of obtaining the only reparation (if he might call it so) which the unfortunate plaintiff could obtain for the misery which the defendant had entailed on a once happy family. The defendant, who was a married man, had come out to this country with his lady and her family in the year 1813, on board the same ship with the two daughters of the plaintiff. An intimacy was formed between the young ladies and the family, high in rank and situation, with whom the defendant was connected by marriage, and which continued after their arrival in this country. Some time after their arrival the defendant became the partner of the plaintiff in his profession, and from this time he was looked upon and treated by the plaintiff and his family as a member of it. The young lady herself, the unfortunate subject of that day's inquiry, was also treated with the greatest kindness by the family. The defendant upon all occasions professed the warmest friendship for the plaintiff; he shewed the utmost concern and interest for the plaintiff during his frequent illnesses, and waited upon him with the apparent tenderness and anxiety of a son. The plaintiff was not insensible (who could be insensible?) in such conduct. He repaid it with the feelings of a father towards the defendant. The Learned Counsel here adverted to the conduct of the deluded young lady (tutored no doubt for that purpose by her abandoned seducer) for some time previous to this day, as being calculated to raise great anxiety in the minds of her parents, particularly of her mother. Her demeanour on several occasions was strange, and in particular she dwelt more than once on the subject of the Lunatic Asylum, and the state of the unfortunate beings who are the objects of that institution. Knowing, as we all do, the sequel of the story, the purpose of this device, hatched in the depraved mind of the defendant, is apparent; but to proceed. It would appear that on the day in question, upon the separation of the family, about ten o'clock in the evening, Miss Comberbach took leave of her sister, as if they were about to separate for ever, but which did not then excite any extraordinary feeling of surprise in her sister, as she had for some time previous appeared to be much depressed in spirits. The Learned Gentleman shewed, that all the arts this most abandoned of men must have used, failed to break asunder those links by which nature binds us to our kindred. What must have been his feelings (if the word be not profaned by so applying it) when he saw the last agonising pang endured by his victim at parting from those to whom she had so long been united by every tie of affection that can bind us to each other! Mr Fergusson then went on to state, that on the following morning, the 4th June, the plaintiff, as usual, came early into town. That about seven o'clock in the morning he was called to the gardens by a note from his wife, desiring that nothing might prevent his immediate return. On his arrival at the gardens he met a friend upon the stairs, from whose countenance he perceived that something dreadful had occurred. He would leave to those who heard him to imagine, for he would not attempt to describe, what must have been the agonized feelings of a doating father upon learning that his favourite daughter had come to an untimely end, and what must have been the horror of both parents when they learned that the cause of this dreadful catastrophe was a fear of approaching insanity! He then proceeded to state, that soon after the plaintiff left his garden for Calcutta, the ayah of Miss Comberbach entered the room of Mrs Comberbach, exclaiming that her young mistress was gone, and put a letter into the hands of Mrs Comberbach, which had been left on a couch, conveying the dreadful intelligence of her daughter having, through the fear of approaching insanity, put an end to her existence by drowning herself. He then proceeded to state the conduct of the defendant through the whole of the scene of villainy. On the morning of the 4th he appeared at the gardens, with all the outward signs of grief and sympathy with the agonized feelings of the unfortunate parents. After shedding an abundance of tears, he returned to town with the declared intention of waiting upon Commodore Hayes, for the purpose of obtaining the assistance of his boats and divers to wait for and recover the body; and at the same time requested that he might be allowed to take with him the letters and papers that had been found, in order to show them to his family and the other friends of the plaintiff. He returned to the gardens in the evening, and, with his usual expressions of anxiety and interest for the family, said, that they ought not to be left alone in such deep affliction, and that he was determined to remain all night. He slept in the bed that had so lately been occupied by the lost young lady, the only bed then vacant in the house. Upon meeting Captain Maddock the next morning, he declared that nothing should induce him to sleep in that room again, as Louisa had appeared to him in the night, and questioned him as to his being in her bed. When the defendant next appeared at the gardens, which was the Sunday following the day on which he had witnessed and triumphed over the scene of desolation he had occasioned, he appeared in deep mourning, saying that his relationship to the family through Captain Maddock entitled him to appear so, and that he mourned her loss as deeply as he could that of a beloved sister. At that very moment, "this wretched young person was living with him in his house," the object and victim of his brutal sensuality! Was there any thing like this to be found in the annals of human depravity? Mr. F. said, he would gladly quit a subject so disgusting, and would proceed to call the evidence in support of the case which he had stated. The defendant had fled from justice, but he could never fly from the pangs of a guilty conscience. A whole life of remorse and penitence (if such could ever reach a heart so steeled and hardened) would be insufficient to atone for such complicated wickedness. "Mrs Maddock - The last day of my existence will be passed with you, my beloved sister, and the close of it in the midst of my family; to part from you all will be a heart-rending pang; but I have wavered too long, my mind is now made up. Harriet, my beloved sister, I cannot write, it is too painful; accept my last thanks for all your kindness to me. I would ask you, Harriet, if you have another daughter, to let her be named after me. Do not mourn the loss of one whose only regret at leaving this world will be in parting from those she loves so dearly; that once over, she will be happier than she could have been in this life. "Pray for me, and may the God of heaven bless and protect you, my beloved niece, and my dear Maddock! "Unconscious that you see me for the last time, you will smile on me when we part. Oh, Harriet; what a moment of trial will that be for your poor sister! Some further evidence was received in support of the Learned Counsel's statement, and Doctor Young deposed that the young lady was pregnant, and the Judge having commented upon the evidence, pronounced the verdict of the Court in favour of the plaintiff, giving 25,000 rupees damages. Also reported by The Times, 15 November 1819, p. 3. This dramatic case was referred to in the English Prerogative Court case of Robson v. Rocke, 1824, reported in The Times, 19 February 1824, p. 3.

Keri Hoehne is a One Woman Makes a Difference 2016 Honoree! Keri Hoehne is the Executive Assistant to the President, United Food & Commercial Workers Union Local 371. Join us on Tuesday, October 4th to celebrate all our honorees for making a difference in the lives of women, girls and families in Connecticut. My mom. While she probably chose her job out of financial need, she did the same work for nearly forty years, always treating her coworkers and customers with kindness and her job with seriousness and commitment. Her real story, however, is her commitment to my dad and my brother and I, and now to my young family. My mom has been there for me always- helping my brownie troop, attending baton twirling competitions and high school plays, and paying to have my hometown newspaper mailed to me daily when I was homesick in college. Now, she helps me to realize when it is right to fight for something at work, and when it is best to drop it (I would fight every time). These days, she drops everything to help care for my three daughters every single time. She always reminds me that while she is so proud of the work I do to help so many other moms every day, I can never lose sight of the real reason I do it all- to provide for my daughters. In my field, sometimes I meet some people who make really bad choices, and I am tempted to be frustrated with them. My mom always reminds me that everyone is fighting their own battle, and I need to stop, take a deep breath, and view the world through their eyes. Family friendly scheduling. When we talk about work/family balance, we often are referring to parents working in careers, where they have some control over their own schedules. However, more and more workers in America are employed in retail and service jobs. These types of jobs typically do not allow employees to assert much control over their schedules. I was raised in a dual earner family, where my mom worked in a supermarket and my father in a factory. As a result of their union contracts, they were allowed to take time off to care for my brother and I when we were sick, and to attend school events and meetings. Additionally, my mom in particular was allowed to change her work availability when our schedules necessitated it. This is, in my opinion, the only way we can succeed as a community full of dual income families. Even with quality child care, we need to be able to ensure our kids are doing their homework, allowed to participate in afterschool activities, and are generally staying out of trouble. The reduction in full time work in many industries has led more and more workers to be forced to find multiple part time jobs. This makes the work life balance even more precarious, and union contracts and legislation that enforce advanced scheduling and eliminate on call and last minute scheduling can relieve some of the stress on working families. As a working mom, I value preparation and efficiency over pretty much all else. However, my job often means that things get thrown at me at the last minute, or someone wants to discuss an issue just a little bit longer than I have budgeted in my google calendar. I have worked hard to prove to my (mostly male) coworkers that I can get the work done and done well on my own timetable. I always have to be clear about them about time constraints placed on me. In order to allow time for unexpected issues, and still be available when my kids need me, I try as often as possible to wake up early and put in a couple of hours of work writing documents or answering emails before anyone else in the house is awake. Then, after our daughters are in bed, I put in a few more hours doing the same thing. This means that I can sneak home to see my kids get off the bus and have dinner with them, or ensure I can make it to their dance competitions on the weekend. Also, when planning for family events (throwing parties is my most favorite hobby), I have been known to make goodie bags a month ahead of time and hang decorations 10 days before a party, because those are the free moments that I know I have available. Finally, I would be remiss if I didn't reflect on Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg's career advice to women - "The most important career choice you'll make is who you marry." About four years ago, my husband made the choice, after much discussion, to quit a job he loved to stay home and care for our daughters. That means two important things: I can focus solely on my work when that is what is required, and that when I do have time that I can be home, I can spend it purely on our girls and their needs, and not on shopping, cooking, or carpooling. During those late nights while I'm getting in a few extra hours of work, he is right next to me, folding clothes. We hope you'll join us on October 4th to show your support of CWEALF and this year's honorees. This annual event supports CWEALF's mission to empower women, girls and their families to achieve equal opportunities in their personal and professional lives. Purchase your tickets today!

Home>Blog>Passover in Egypt in 419 BCE Posted-on June 21, 2014 April 16, 2019 By lineBylinedadmin [This article was inspired by a brilliant online course by Prof. Jacob L. Wright] Many biblical scholars tell us that, so far, there is little or no archeological evidence of Israel's exodus from Egypt and the periods which preceded it. Some scholars also doubt Joshua's wars and even the scale of the Davidic monarchy. At the other end of the timeline, the Dead Sea Scrolls prove that the entire Tanach (Hebrew Bible), as we know it today (modulo canonization), existed in Hebrew manuscript form by the beginning of the 1st Century CE (year zero of the common era). The findings at Qumran suggest that there existed libraries with many copies of each Biblical book, where the people of Judah were able to read them along with contemporary commentary, translation and exegesis. The question arises, at what point during the first millennium BCE can we find hard evidence that matches the Biblical narrative on the formation of the Israelites and Judahites as a people and as a religion whose center of gravity is in Jerusalem? There are several carbon-dated archeological artifacts that indirectly corroborate the Biblical stories in the 9th century BCE. I discuss some of them in THIS post. Here, we will discuss an interesting piece of evidence from the 5th century BCE, which roughly coincides with the return to Zion and the rebuilding of the 2nd Temple. In 1907, a german professor by the name of Eduard Sachau discovered the Passover Papyrus at Elephantine. The papyrus is written in Aramaic using Hebrew letters, and has been scientifically dated back to 419 BCE. This is the oldest archeological document found to date (outside of the Bible) which proves that Jews celebrated Passover during the period which coincides with the Return to Zion of Ezra and Nehemiah (from the Babylonian exile), and provides independent historical evidence that: A small Jewish community existed in Egypt (as described in the book of Jeremiah) They worshipped a God named Yahu (יהו which is similar to יהוה) They considered Judah (the land of Israel) as their religious authority They wrote to Judah to ask how to celebrate Passover (maybe they had no Torah scroll, or maybe Torah scrolls didn't exist yet) One of the other Elephantine papyri mentions Sanballat who is also mentioned in the Bible The Passover Papyrus is the response the Elephantine community received from Judah outlining the Passover rituals The timing of Passover in the papyrus and most of the rituals match what we would expect Elephantine is a small island in the southern part of the Nile river, near today's Aswan. Most Hebrew sources refer to it as "Yev" (יב) – for example, this Hebrew article about the papyrus. The Passover Papyrus is part of a large collection of documents that were uncovered at Elephantine. The documents were studied by German, British, American and Israeli scholars and translated from Aramaic to many different languages. Many of the documents deal with the history of one specific family: the family of Hannaniah. Some of the papyri have been on display at the Brooklyn Museum. They were published by the museum in a book: However, the Passover Papyrus is not at the Brooklyn Museum, it is on display at the Berlin Egyptian Museum – which I visited last year with my family. The significance of the Passover Papyrus was first identified by British scholar William R. Arnold in a 1911 paper entitled Passover Papyrus From Elephantine (click for full pdf). As Arnold explains, there are many holes in the text which have to be filled in. The English translation of the Passover Papyrus (as given by Prof. Jill Katz) is as follows: "…Now, you, thus count fourteen days of Nisan and on the 14th at twilight the Passover make and from day 15 until day 21 of Nisan the Festival of Unleavened Bread observe. Seven days unleavened bread eat. Now, be pure and take heed. Work do not do on day 15 and on day 21 of Nisan. Any fermented drink do not drink. And anything of leaven do not eat and do not let it be seen in your houses from day 14 of Nisan at sunset until day 21 of Nisan at sunset. And any leaven which you have in your houses bring into your chambers and seal (them) up during these days. To my brothers Jedaniah and his colleagues the Jewish Troop, your brother Hananiah"The original Aramaic and Hebrew translation are given in this paper By Dr. Yehoshua Brand, and another important article in Hebrew is available here. We get some of the missing background information by reading the Temple Reconstruction Papyrus (dated 407 BCE). This scroll mentions the sons of Sanballat the Horonite: "…we, our wives, and our children, and the Judahites who are here, all of them—if you do this so that this temple is reconstructed. And you shall have honor before Yahu, the God of the Heavens, more than a man who offers him burnt-offerings and sacrifices worth a thousand talents of silver and gold. Because of this, we have written to inform you. We have also set forth the whole matter in a letter in our name to Delaiah and Shelemiah, the sons of Sanballat, the governor of Samaria."The mention of Sanballat, the governor of Samaria, by name is one of the strongest corroborations of the Biblical Ezra & Nehemaiah narrative ever found in archeology. Sanballat appears in the Book of Nehemiah, which casts him as one of the chief opponents of the Jewish governor Nehemiah during the latter's efforts to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem and carry out his reforms among the Jews. For example, Nehemiah Chapter 6 says: "Now it came to pass, when it was heard by Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies that I had built the wall, and that no breach was left therein; also that until that time I had not erected doors in the gates. Then Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, 'Come and let us meet together in Kefirim in the Valley of Ono'; and they were plotting to do me harm." and verse 10 of that chapter even mentions the names of his sons: "And I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah…" which matches the Elephantine papyrus! You can read many of the linked sources to get the full picture of the significance of the Elephantine papyri, but I think the most important point to take away is that this is a very strong corroboration of the Biblical narrative during the period of Ezra and Nehemiah which I covered in: Jews and the Land of Israel. Several important facts clearly emerge from studying the Elephantine papyri. First, that a Jewish community actually existed in Egypt from around the time of the Babylonian exile of 586 BCE. The Biblical text refers to this through the words of the prophet Jeremiah. While the Elephantine Jewish community was not necessarily religious (some scholars say it was polytheistic), the papyri prove that it felt a strong affinity towards "the mother ship", Judah, and corresponded with Jerusalem seeking help and religious advice. Second, that the Elephantine Jews probably did not possess a Torah scroll (because it was hard to obtain one, or because it didn't exist yet). Third, that the religious leaders in Judah at the time were able to provide precise instructions how to celebrate Passover. Even if the Torah did not exist yet in scroll form, it is clear that the information on how to celebrate Jewish holidays existed in full detail, and the skills to write it down in Aramaic Hebrew existed in Eretz Israel during the 5th Century BCE.

Revitalized by the chart-topping success of their 2012 single "Where I Belong," Building 429 sustains its momentum with the consistently strong We Won't Be Shaken. The Christian pop/rock quartet recalls the '90s heyday of such legendary combos as dcTalk and Newsboys with a batch of anthemic rockers and dramatic ballads that combine personal testimony with a universal message of redemption. Producers Jason Ingram, Rusty Varenkamp and Rob Hawkins frame Jason Roy's heroic yet vulnerable vocals with dynamic arrangements that build to shout-along choruses. Any CCM fan looking for a jolt of inspiration should find it in propulsive tracks like "Bonfire, "Blameless" and "Revolution." The acoustic guitars and gang vocals of the title track and the body-grabbing shuffle groove of "Get Up" add sonic variety. Roy shares the mic with Group 1 Crew's Blanca Callahan on "Wrecking Ball (Press On)," a summery shuffle with an island feel. Slinky to thunderous riffage by guitarist Jesse Garcia and muscular drumming by Michael Anderson keeps the music crisp and supple throughout.

Speaking to a cheering crowd, Congressman Ron Paul hit on some key points of his campaign. He noted the large amount of energy that his campaign found on college campuses around the country, and he charged that the Federal Reserve was "taking care" of the "military-industrial complex" and financing more deficit spending by the government. He said that the "liberty movement" had brought forward the issues of "funny money" and the cost of acting as the "policeman" of the world. Paul closed his speech by saying "we will restore freedom to this country." The audience reacted positively to the news of a strong second place finish, and cheered on Congressman Paul throughout his speech. After Congressman Paul finished speaking, much of the crowd remained in the room. The sound system blared "Celebration" by Kool and The Gang, followed by Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'."

Also, you need to convert your grades to an html option list before returning them, perhaps with options_for_select

Read as Karla Lara-Otero talks about her career as Financial Operations Director of the Amazon Conservation Team. Find her at www.amazonteam.org and on the Twitter feed in the sidebar of this interview. I am the Director of Financial Operations for the Amazon Conservation Team (ACT), a nonprofit organization that works in partnership with indigenous people in Amazon, specifically in Colombia and Suriname. My works entails, the oversight of the financial and fiscal aspects of the organization, providing leadership and coordination in accounting, human resources, administrative, business planning and budgeting processes, supervise and liaise with the finance departments of our country programs offices. Participating in strategic and operational decision-making processes of the organization, evaluating the internal controls, constant monitoring of effectiveness and efficiency, and determining where improvements and streamlining in financial procedures can be implemented. An important part of my job is to provide support to the President and the rest of the Executive team, because many decisions involving the organization are based on financial conditions. As the Director of Financial Operations you are expected to have an understanding of what is going on at all the levels of the organization. What I like about working for ACT is that I don't have a typical work week. As a small nonprofit organization, we all have to wear many hats and there is always a lot going on, usually the work is very dynamic. I normally get to the office at 9 am and leave around 6 pm, and depending on the deadlines or how the day developed, I will have to stay later. During a regular week, I would say that 25% of my time is devoted to internal planning and follow-up meetings, 15% of the time working with our country program offices, 50% monitoring the finances and the other 10% is designated to administrative and human resources activities. My accounting career started in the audit division of Ernst & Young (EYI), one of the "big four" accounting firms in the world. I was still a senior in college when I began working with EYI. This was a very valuable experience because it gave me a real understanding of the accounting work and its meaning. Then after a few years in the consulting and auditing industry, I was hired by a nonprofit organization as an accounting assistant. Nonprofits are very unique for accounting professionals. Indeed despite my experience, I had to learn many of the activities and guidelines that regulate this type of organization. I gradually moved up until I became a Director of Finance. I enjoy working with people and helping them achieve success. In small organizations such as mine, finance executives must take on broader roles. I lead the finance department in our headquarters, but I am also responsible for the finance operations in our two offices located in Colombia and Suriname. Learning from their culture and even their business rules is a challenge I take every day. My nonprofit gives financial assistance and leadership support to indigenous communities in South America; watching these communities grow and succeed with our efforts and the programs we have in place is a priceless feeling. Under some circumstances, this job sometimes could get very mentally stressful. I am not only responsible for having an organized accounting department. I have to make sure that our organization is financially healthy and that we keep a growing source of revenue (donors). And, when times are difficult like the past two years, I am responsible for making sure that our organization remains financially stable. Sometimes this means taking on tough decisions. My compensation comes from a set salary, which is established by the President of the organization and approved by the Board of Directors. The salary for a Director of Finance will depend on the industry, the location and experience. In the nonprofit sector, the salaries are typically lower than in for profit companies. Depending on the size of the organization, some surveys suggest anywhere from $70K to $140K for the DC Metro area. When I started working in the United Stated as an accounting assistant back in 2003, I was probably making less than $45K. However, this figure should be higher now. A degree in finance or accounting would be ideal. I have a bachelor's degree in accounting and I am a CPA candidate. Having to manage a multicultural team is very challenging, especially when you are working with people that are geographically dispersed in 3 countries with different languages, multi-currency and different local regulations. On the other hand, since we depend on the generosity of our donors, most of the nonprofit organizations have suffered enormously with the weak economy. This means that our future always remains unpredictable. More than ever, having to manage the resources with extreme efficiency is a challenge. Finally, making sure that we keep a low overhead to ensure that the majority of the resources we received are invested in the communities we serve is the biggest challenge of all. For me being part of a team of people that cares about the mission of the organization and the indigenous communities in the Amazon is very rewarding. However, what I love the most about my current job is the diversity of the people and the fact that one day I can be in a meeting with the President of the organization or the Board of Directors, and next day just sitting down and talking to the most interesting indigenous women of the Colombian Amazon learning about their culture and needs. Having the opportunity to be exposed to all these experiences is incredibly fulfilling for me. The finance field offers lots of possibilities and opportunities, but you will also need to be prepared to work under pressure and strict deadlines. At the beginning of your career, you will have to be very flexible with your time and expect to work long hours. In addition, I personally believe that a good strength for people seeking to work in this career is to be detail oriented. I get 4 weeks of vacation per year; if you have been at the organization for less than two years then you are eligible for only 3 weeks per year. And I also get two personal days per year. People think that if you are in the finance field you will always have to work endless hours every day including weekends. Certainly, this job demands a lot of time especially at the beginning of your career, but as you move up, if you are organized in managing your tasks and maintaining a balanced workload throughout the week/month/year, you will get the weekends off. My short/medium term goal is to help this organization to keep growing and making sure it is positioned to work in the always "challenging" times, especially for the nonprofit sector. In addition, that ACT remains strong and prepared for those times when things are not as prosperous as we would like. Finally, everyday I try to work really hard and prepare myself to keep advancing up in my career. In general, I think that Finance is an excellent profession to be in. I feel very fortunate to be doing what I absolutely love, especially having a career in the nonprofit sector. Although, the compensation is definitely less, to me the satisfaction of contributing to a cause that I believe in is the most important and rewarding aspect of my job.

The title of this post should actually be More Protein + Workouts + More Muscle, but since Ashleigh takes care in the workout part of the equation, I'll focus on the nutrition piece. Higher protein diets are back in favor these days especially with the emergence of the Primal and Paleo diet movements, and I've seen them work wonders with my clients. Protein (from the word protos meaning primary) increases satiation, provides a slow-burning replacement for excess carbs, encourages a speedier metabolism and even helps stabilize moods and cravings. A high protein breakfast increases metabolism by 30% for 12 hours according to Byron J. Richards author of Mastering Leptin. When designing your meal plans, remember that the more amino acids (the main constituent of protein) that are made available to the muscles, the more they are able to build up. There is a point of diminishing returns, but most active people need at least 0.8-1g protein per pound of bodyweight. Another way to measure your protein intake is to aim for around 120 grams of protein a day, increasing slowly over the course of a week. To give you a perspective, the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for protein is: Men: 56 grams a day and women: 46 grams a day, but experts argue that these guidelines are out of date and are meant to insure adequate functioning. I am more interested in a diet that leads to optimal functioning. You will need to experiment with your own intake to discover what works best for your unique body/brain. If you notice any digestive discomfort then read last weeks post on Maximizing Digestion for Muscle Growth and keep an ear out for when Ashleigh and I launch our Group Cleanse.

TCC partners with Dominion to offer cutting edge training for renewable energy industry By Phyllis Johnson Dominion Virginia Power vice-president of business development Jim Eck, center, shows enthusiasm during the hands-on training class at the Chesapeake campus of Tidewater Community College. (Phyllis Johnson) As the field of renewable energy continues to expand, terms like "smart microgrid" will be jargon all of us will eventually understand. That also translates into a large workforce that must be ready to take on the new technologies affiliated with the industry. In preparation for such a need, Tidewater Community College has partnered with Dominion Virginia Power to train students for work in the advancing fields of solar, wind and geothermal energies. "Currently, with a grant of $150,000 from the Dominion Foundation, there is support for this training at seven community colleges in Virginia," said Bonita Billingsley Harris, media and communications manager at Dominion. The Virginia Department of Mines, Minerals and Energy has also provided funding to further enable this effort. Tidewater is ahead of the curve, Harris said, and TCC's Dean of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, Thomas Stout, is a visionary who's helped other colleges get on board. "There are a lot of opportunities for solar workers in design, sales, installation; it's a broad spectrum of jobs," Stout said. "We offer North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners training for credit and noncredit." To inform the public of the educational opportunities, a hands-on solar training class was held Feb. 23 at TCC's Chesapeake campus on Cedar Road. Dominion's Vice President of Business Development Jim Eck, Regional Policy Director Max Batholomew and Stout answered questions and explained the new partnership. TCC President Edna Baehre-Kolovani, Chesapeake Campus Provost Lisa Rhine, faculty and students turned out to observe the training. Attendees watched students work on a solar array and were given a tour of a solar laboratory. TCC instructor/mechanical engineer Eric Beaver held a hands-on instructional session in the Solar Photovoltaic and Thermal class with students mounting solar modules. Solar panel installation involves installing a racking system, mounting modules, running wires to converters and ensuring that the setup can withstand 120 mph winds. After installation, students used gauges to check the voltage produced on the sunny day. Two slanted platforms held different mounting systems on which students were being trained. "In the classroom, they studied theory. Now they're learning the physical installation," Beaver said. Student Davis Watson measured amps and voltage, comparing them to a spec sheet on a panel. "It's a bright day, producing a lot of power," he said. How does this translate into home use? A typical house requires 28 to 36 modules. But it's a fact that more businesses are looking into this type of energy source, and that makes the TCC/Dominion partnership crucial. "Currently we are investing $800 million in Virginia, producing 398 megawatts to power 100,000 homes," Eck said. "Because of this, we need a technical workforce to be trained. There are over 250,000 jobs in this field according to the Solar Foundation. This campus is providing us a pipeline of workers. Having certified workers is critical." Hands-on training is a very important element of renewable energy training. "This is preparing for the careers of the future as part of the Energy Coalition," Stout said. His vision for jobs includes training veterans for the field. So far, 100 veterans have taken a Solar Ready Veterans program on the campus, with 97 students passing. "We have a partnership with the Navy through a family services center," Stout said. "The whole Commonwealth wins," Eck said. And TCC is leading the way for solar programs statewide, according to Batholomew. "We appreciate the role of community colleges for preparing the workforce for today and tomorrow," he said. In Chesapeake, harnessing the sun's power is already in action with the installation of solar panels at various large sites, including Western Branch High School. With 3,000 panels, it is the largest single rooftop solar energy system in Virginia. And a turbine was recently installed at Grassfield High School to harness wind energy. Start your morning in-the-know with the day's top stories. Old Dominion University has a solar energy system in place as well. As the movement toward the use of alternative energy has increased, so has the need for skilled workers, hence the solar training and laboratory. In addition to training at colleges, the curriculum will expand to include energy programs for dual enrollment at high schools and the use of mobile solar labs. With the sun bearing down on the observers during the recent deomonstration, Eck joked, "The future is so bright, I need my shades!"

On Friday night playing against the U.S. National Development Team Program Under-18 Team, David Quinn said he saw what you might expect to see out of a young team playing in an exhibition game — immaturity. But, Quinn said when the games mattered again, his team would get its act together and right the ship. True to his word, the No. 6 Boston University men's hockey team won when it counted, defeating the University of Wisconsin on Saturday night at Agganis Arena. The Terriers (1-1) fell behind early on in the first period, but rallied for four unanswered goals to close out the Badgers (0-2-2), 4-1. Ten different Terriers chipped in at least one point in what was an all-around, clean win. As always, though, it wasn't perfect, so we'll take a look at what went right and wrong in this Pluses and Minuses. It was beginning to look a lot like Friday night early on in Saturday's game. Much like the first period against the U-18s, the Terriers held a sizable shot advantage over the Badgers to start the game, more than doubling Wisconsin's first-period shot total. However, there were no goals to show for it. But senior assistant captain Matt Lane changed all of that 1:36 into the second period. Taking a fortuitous carom off the end boards, Lane backhanded a shot over high over goaltender Matt Jurusik to put BU on the board. It looked a lot like much of Lane's goals from the previous three years — close and down low in the dirty area. They haven't been from far out, but Lane's scoring has been effective nonetheless. "He's strong, he's quick, he's got a good stick. He's got good hands, he's not easily denied," Quinn said. "I don't think his goals traveled, last year, he had eight or nine goals, I don't think his goals traveled more than a foot combined. He's off to a great start, both of his goals this year are the same. Back door, quick, picking up a puck, having the athleticism to corral it and get it in the net. Back in the lineup for the first time this season on Friday, sophomore defenseman Brandon Fortunato looked like a player that needed to shake off the rust. When it was all said and done, he finished the night with a team-worst minus-4. But whatever rust was there was nowhere to be found against Wisconsin. He came away with two points (a goal and an assist) and a plus-1 rating. Better yet, his defensive coverage was strong and he was effective quarterbacking BU's top power-play unit. Having a more shoot-first mentality translated in what proved to be a game-winning goal for the sophomore. Fortunato was just one of many players to make an improvement from Friday to Saturday. You can read more about that in Judy's sider. Looking for a shakeup, Quinn adjusted all four lines and two of the three defensive pairs. To say the least, it worked. Most impressive were BU's second and fourth lines, which registered four points and three points, respectively. The second line of freshman forwards Ryan Cloonan and Jakob Forsbacka Karlsson and Lane combined for a speed game that Wisconsin had trouble keeping up with. Each had at least one point, with Cloonan registering two. They were quick on the puck and caused a lot of trouble for the Badgers in the neutral zone. As for the fourth line, senior Mike Moran centered, while the wingers, sophomore Chase Phelps and freshman Bobo Carpenter, all contributed. Phelps and Carpenter scored the Terriers' final two goals and Moran had the primary assist on the last goal score. BU already has a lot of jerseys and alternates, and they added to that count Saturday night. The Terriers wore a jersey that was similar to the retro red one they unveiled last season, but the base of this uniform is white and the letters and numbers are red. It's a nice, clean look that I'm sure BU will use at some more home games this year. Not even a minute and a half into the game, forward Adam Rockwood somehow snuck in a shot through sophomore netminder Connor LaCouvee and the retreating BU defense. It wasn't a pretty goal, but it gave a winless Wisconsin team some early excitement. There was a response and chances from BU, but it seemed that all of the "Grade-A" chances either went wide or were turned aside by Jurusik. They recorded eight shots on three power plays, but the Terriers just could not hit the twine in the first period. It didn't come back to bite them, but it could down the road against tougher competition. It's a tough complaint, especially just two games into the regular season, but BU still hasn't found its groove on the power play. Yes, they had seven power plays and recorded an impressive 21 shots on goal, but the Terriers just converted once for a 14.3 percent conversion rate.

Discussion in 'Android Questions' started by manic, Dec 16, 2009. I d/l a bittorrent client app named aBTC from the marketplace. I could not get it to work. I tried the hints left by other Droid users, but no luck. I was wondering if anyone has tried this app and got it to work? I'm new to the whole torrent thing so maybe I'm screwing up. Just an update for those who might be interested....I had a friend who uses torrents on his pc take a look at the app. In his opinon the app was not too good. We tried several files of different sizes without luck. He also said that in a pc torrent d/l you choose the individual files you actually end up d/l. This was not an option in the app. I never got one d/l to even start. I had to uninstall within the 24hr trial period to get a refund. The problem is if I decide to reinstall I'm no longer eligible for a refund. I even emailed the developer and told him/her that I didn't mind that if I could get some tips. Never got a response. Too bad because an actual client would be a sweet app. Well if anyone wants to give it a try you do have that 24hr period to use it and get a refund, if necessary. It looks like according to the comments left some Droid users have got it to work. If anyone here tries it and does get it to work post it here. Thanks! I found and installed the apk file off the web.I. did get it to work. It was really slow. The version I had was old. If I tried to update the settings it would just force close. It did take a while to connect also. It was easily interrupted. incoming or outgoing calls and checking the status all seemed to interrupt. I would also get a message that I had insufficient space and the file size was too large. I was trying a 200 MB file and I had over 5 MB left on my card. Im thinking most of the errors are from this being a non market download. I know that you can set it to resume downloads.and I had it working over wifi too. So there is good and bad. It does work you can resume downloads but it is slow and takes time to connect. I guess its alright for the first client available, you just have to be patient. with all the file sharing sites available for free I just cant justify paying for this app right now.

Gritty's Reign Has Just Begun Mascots are safe to love in an era when nothing is. Gritty and Phang, Philly's newest mascots, exemplify why. by Eve Peyser; photos by Christopher Leaman Nov 18 2019, 3:17pm This article appears in VICE Magazine's 2019 Profiles Issue. This edition looks to the future by zeroing in on the underrecognized writers, scientists, musicians, critics, and more that will shape our world next year. They are "the Other 2020" to watch. Click HERE to subscribe to the print edition. Seven feet tall, furry, orange, and rotund, he's the belle of the ball, his googly eyes darting around in every direction. As he zipped around the Wells Fargo Center on a hoverboard, he shook his big ass, flanked on each side by stoic men in crisp black suits and dark glasses; behind them were the dancers for the Flyers, Philadelphia's hockey team. It was a parade of sorts. The girls gyrated to pop hits from 10 years ago, while the guys waved orange-and-black flags. His face is permanently contorted into an enthusiastic grin, with a menacing pink tongue; his beard, like the rest of his fur, is a bright orange, but much longer and almost filthy. As he approached clusters of fans, they screamed, "Gritty! Gritty!" and begged for pictures, settling for high-fives. One fan got on his knees and bowed down to him, the god that he is. In moments like these, Gritty is the biggest celebrity in the world, and not only does he know it, he can't get enough of it. My arms flailed and I panted as I raced to keep up with all the excitement. This beloved orange monster is somehow the epitome of both grace and chaos, and I was smiling and laughing so much that the experience began to feel spiritual—I was one with this strange, beautiful community of worshippers. Face-to-face with the most popular sports mascot of the 21st century, I felt comically starstruck. Gritty offered me his four-fingered hand, which squeaked clownishly; unsure of what to do, I gave it a little kiss. He shot me one last leer, then abruptly turned away and continued his dance. A human being walking around in a giant suit that resembles an anthropomorphized animal or other creature should be terrifying, but mascots remain universally cherished. Gritty offers a perfect example of the power these strange creatures wield in our modern society. He was introduced to the world on September 24, 2018, and slipped on the ice during his debut performance; despite (or perhaps because of) this, he became a sensation immediately. Sarah Schwab, the Flyers' senior director of communications, told me that the team braced for a negative reaction initially, since "mascot adoptions typically take from three weeks to three months." A writer from the Guardian described him as "a horrifying bearded man-Muppet hybrid whose eyes are permanently rolling in their sockets, presumably from years of drug use… toxic masculinity incarnate." Responding to his debut tweet—"It me. #Gritty"—the rival Pennsylvania hockey team, the Pittsburgh Penguins, wrote, "lol ok." But Gritty was able to expertly charm his way into the hearts of Flyers' fans and beyond, quipping back, "Sleep with one eye open tonight, bird." Within days, he had made an appearance on The Tonight Show, chartering a helicopter from New York to Philadelphia to make it back in time for the game. Less than a month after his introduction, The New Yorker observed that "the mark of a knowing user on Twitter was to declare Gritty not just a good sports mascot but the latest version of the best thing ever." According to his marketing team, he's been swarmed by TMZ paparazzi on multiple occasions. His ascension from frightening NHL mascot to cultural icon—anti-fascists have co-opted him as one of their own; he appears on posters around Philadelphia telling citizens, "Only you can prevent street harassment"—was so swift that it's now impossible to fathom that for the majority of my lifetime, I have lived in a world without Gritty. By all means, Gritty should have been a passing fad, a five-minute sensation that quickly faded into the abyss of the internet, but more than a year after his introduction, he's more popular than ever; the mascot, generally, seems to be growing in power. Why? Mascots as we know them, fixtures of culture that they may seem, are a relatively new invention. In 1974, a San Diego radio station hired a college student to wear a chicken suit and do promotion at Padres games. It was a terrible season for the California baseball team, but the man in the chicken suit received great fanfare regardless. Taking note of the chicken's popularity, the Philadelphia Phillies decided to reimagine their mascots, a pair of 15-foot animatronic twins from the colonial era named Phil and Phillis, into the Phanatic, an obese and happy green monster from the Galápagos Islands. The Phanatic, designed by the same person who dreamed up Miss Piggy, was introduced in 1978. Soon, having a mascot became commonplace in both college-level and professional sports. Gritty exemplifies many of the mascot trends of the past 40 years, and may represent their logical conclusion, but it takes more than timing and a clever design to truly capture a nation's imagination. For evidence, we can look to Phang, the mascot of the Philadelphia Union, a Major League Soccer team. Two weeks before the world fell in love with this new giant fuzzy Philadelphia sports icon, Phang hatched out of an egg at the Philadelphia Zoo. (He was not the first mascot to hatch out of an egg, and I imagine he will not be the last.) Gritty offers a perfect example of the power these strange creatures wield in our modern society. I met Phang at a Union game on a warm October afternoon, and observed as he enjoyed fanfare similar to Gritty's, but with a smaller and more constrained operation, and generally less impressive stardom. An anthropomorphized snake, buff and mohawked, Phang is not snake-like at all, not least because he has arms and legs; almost as tall as Gritty, he is respected but not revered and, in many ways, is Gritty's polar opposite. Gritty is a universally beloved icon of resistance to authoritarian control; Phang is not. Gritty has escaped the narrow uses to which sports marketers might put him, while Phang has not. The most striking difference between the two, though, may be that Phang is ripped, while Gritty has a body type that is more relatable to the average American. (Spokespeople from both teams said that the two are friends.) Gritty's largeness is very intentional, and certainly central to why he is so beloved. "If you give a mascot some area around the waist, you give them more ways to convey emotion," Schwab told me. Phang, despite the arms and legs, is clearly a snake, a familiar creature. (At the Union game, I overheard two children arguing about Phang. "Literally, the Union symbol is a snake," a girl of maybe 9 or 10 told her friend. "But I think it's a dragon," her friend protested. I couldn't help but interject that yes, he is, in fact, a snake.) Gritty is an abstraction. Noseless, he does not resemble any known creature. This makes him anonymous, something of a blank slate onto which we can project our hopes and desires. This anonymity seems central not just to the appeal of Gritty—a left-wing icon who can get Flyers fans to the stands for more hot dogs—but that of all mascots. Mascots' identities are a carefully guarded secret, as part of what I like to call "mascot law." The Union and the Flyers would not reveal the identity of the people who perform as their mascots—a common practice in professional sports—so as not to spoil the mystique of their team representative or remind the world that there is a very sweaty man inside whatever large stuffed animal we all agree to worship. Silent heroes, mascots are not allowed to speak when they are in the suit. The Flyers are so secretive about some aspects of Gritty that when I asked what was up with his belly button—something that resembles a neon scrunchie and often changes colors—Schwab tersely said, "We can't comment on the belly button." She was effective in keeping all information about the man inside Gritty hidden from me, and when I attempted to peek inside the mask, Gritty ran away from me, disgusted by my transgression. The one small detail I learned: He is tall. In fact, Gritty was originally adapted from a design drawn by Brian Allen of Flyland Designs known internally as "Monster D." (The "D" does not stand for anything naughty, but rather differentiates it from Monsters A–C.) Monster D rocked a Donald Duck look, but when the performer initially tried on the costume, his height made him look strangely naked, so they gave him pants. "That was a good call," I told Schwab. "Otherwise, we'd all be wondering about his penis." Unsurprisingly, Schwab did not have further comment on Gritty's reproductive organs, but when I mentioned it to Allen, he insisted, "I never designed Gritty's genitals." (There is no easy or obvious place to bring this up, but it's difficult to talk about the popularity of mascots without talking about furries, a community of people who have a sexual fetish for anthropomorphized animals. Their cultural impact has grown in recent years, particularly online, and brands are paying attention. After sending a glut of sexualized tweets to the cereal mascot Tony the Tiger, furries seemingly drove him off the social media platform. Meanwhile, Chester the Cheetah, the mascot for Cheetos, capitalized on the enthusiasm of these fetishists. Inevitably, the sexualization of these characters, while it remains niche, has become increasingly mainstream.) Phang, unlike Gritty, was an easy nut to crack. He had one handler, who was, unlike Gritty's secret service agents, not in character. When he pulled me in for a picture, I whispered to him, "Will I be able to get you to talk?" and he whispered back, "Maybe." I gasped with delight. When his handler wasn't paying attention, he told me that he also plays the sidekick to the Phillie Phanatic, and was also a college mascot. Down the throat of the snake costume, he flashed me his piercing green eyes, which sent a chill down my spine. Later on, while he was taking a break from his mascot duties in an office conference room, I sneaked a peek of him out of his suit and saw a young man, soaking in sweat, totally silent, holding his head in his hands, as if he was in deep pain. A couple minutes later, he was back in the suit, continuing his charm offensive around the stadium. Since mascot law barred me from speaking with the men who embody Gritty and Phang, I turned to my friend Josh Lay, a former New Jersey Devil who went to the University of Tennessee on a full mascot scholarship with books included. Lay has an infectiously upbeat quality to him, and his reviews of mascot life were decidedly mixed. He described his experience as "super hot," involving wearing a 25-pound suit with no ventilation, constantly dehydrated. Lay became a mascot because he liked sports and was an aspiring actor. When he moved to New York after college to pursue acting, he recalled performing as the Devil to a screaming audience of thousands, only to return to the city later that evening and perform improv for eight drunk people at a small bar. "You're this instant celebrity," he told me. "Smokey [the mascot for the University of Tennessee] has been around for 50 years. You're a celebrity who has never lost celebrity status." The growing appeal of mascots almost seems inevitable in our increasingly broken world: They don't have any of the flaws that make humans so difficult to love. They are what anyone wants them to be, and what everyone wants them to be. The Flyers might lose a hockey game, but Gritty always wins. The New Yorker writer Naomi Fry named Gritty one of the best men of 2018, explaining, "Gritty is magic because he is pure male id, but without any of the menace." He threatens without doing anything; he is as kind or unkind as you desire. In a punitive era where anyone can be canceled for a stray word, the mascot is a safe figure to love. Gritty, an otherworldly apparition who doesn't even have the baggage of looking like a real animal, is the perfect idol. He is ugly and chaotic, and thus relatable, but only exists for the purpose of having fun, of celebrating the strange joy that comes along with existing in a society. He is beautiful and beloved, and has already secured his place in history. His time, this era of anything that can be everything to everyone, is just beginning. v26n4 Phang

Board of Trustees Policy No. 7.0000 Advisory Committees are not policy-making bodies; they are to serve in a recommending capacity to assist faculty and administrators in the development of meaningful, high quality, and up-to-date programs. They are to recommend program needs and determine how these can be efficiently met. They function as a communications channel between the College and individuals, organizations, and agencies interested in the specific program. Members serve for a two-year term without salary. In accordance with the Policy of the Board of Trustees, the President will delegate to the appropriate administrator the authority to establish advisory committees as needed in the following areas: A. Academic Programs Because the design of the curriculum in Career Programs will be affected significantly by recommendations of Advisory Committees, it is most important that such committees function properly. To this end the following procedure will apply: Career Services is responsible to administer the Advisory Committee process. These responsibilities are to be coordinated with the Academic Division Dean or designee and will include: communicating with committee members, ensuring that each committee has adequate membership, assisting in establishing meeting times and seeing that members are notified, and ensuring that minutes are kept and distributed. Advisory committees for new programs should start meeting no later than January and prepare recommendations relating to the advisability of implementing the programs. The Academic Division Dean or designee will be responsible to ensure that the Advisory Committees are active. Advisory Committees must meet at least once a year. The Academic Division Dean or designee will chair the Advisory Committee. Membership from the College will include the Department Chairperson, selected faculty and staff and the Director of Career Services or designee. Minutes of the meetings, upon approval of the committee chairperson and the Academic Division Dean, will be sent to each member of the committee, the President, the Executive Vice President for Educational Services and the Academic Division Deans nd Department Chairpersons.

This article is a draft. Information in this article is likely to change. Both Lesson and Book provide a means to navigate through a package of content via next/previous page links and a left hand menu of pages. In order to reduce the duplication of these two modules, Lesson will have several features added from Book module. In order to import content from Book modules into Lesson, Lesson will support the import of IMS Content Packages from Book. IMS CP import will also enable the of use of content from many sources as the basis for Moodle Lessons. IMS CP import will replace the current Powerpoint import function - which has been unreliable due to various changes made in Powerpoint's HTML export. This will provide a tab for importing IMS CP files similar to the current tab for importing Powerpoint files (upload/browse button, success/error reporting). IMS CP is a structured format with a defined navigation defined in an XML file - this navigational structure will be imported to Lesson as a sequential series of Lesson pages. Once the page structure is created in Lesson, the pages can be moved around, used with checkpoints and question pages, and otherwise function as regular branch table pages. Content can be exported from Book modules versions that support IMS CP export and imported into Moodle Lessons. Content may be importable from other IMS CP files (non-Book module) directly or with minor updates to the IMS CP XML. IMS CP function created instead. IMS CP is a standardized format with a navigational structure defined by an XML file. Gives a defined, standard method for importing content packages into Lesson. Migration to the use of Check Points would require Lesson users to redefine their lesson's navigation. Although, some aspects of the navigation can be migrated automatically. Lesson question will strictly be used for grading, no customized jumps depending upon a specific answer. Check Points would provide a simplification to the design of the lesson yet allow for more advanced learning experiences. A simple example would be if a student is answering all or most of the questions correctly, then the lesson could adapt to a harder set of questions in order to challenge the student (Adaptive Learning). Also Check Points appear to solve the support problem by centralizing the navigation at both the user level and at the code base level. This page was last modified on 15 June 2011, at 07:00.

This beautiful castle is behind my apartment in Milan. Every now and then I pass by this amazing place, specially at night the place looks very magical. In past it had played many roles like being a defense fortress, military barracks, private residence and center of cultural institutions and museums. Also today Inside the castle is a Museum, cafe and leads to one of the biggest parks in Milano, Parco Sempione. The first look of the entrance of Castle will leave you breathless, on a beautiful clear sunny day with the big fountain on the entrance creates a fresh atmosphere. After the entrance there is a large space perfectly preserved front yard, where most of the times one can find some events happening. Then you pass through a beautiful bridge which once was over water but now passes over beautiful grass and home of a lot of cats ( I think the cats live under the bridge). After the bridge on the right is the entrance to the museum where the last hour of some days is free entrance. On the left side is a beautiful cafe-bar to snack. This little passage leads you to the park where you could eat at the park restaurant or just lie down in the green grass. My snack to go! marshmallow roll. While walking from the castle to Duomo of Milano, one passes through a beautiful street with very pretty Italian cafe and ice cream shops (Gelateria). while Moving further you will find some very big shooing stores ranging from shoes , bags and cosmetics. If you are lucky some beautiful trams will pass by you. And then finally you will reach Duomo. This was one of my favorite city walks in Milan. I tried to read this script of yours .I found interesting in marshmallow one ………appreciable….

The way that ability scores are rolled in D&D has always seemed a little strange to me. For a normal character with no bonuses the scores rolled with D6 should range from 3 to 18. This puts the mid point at a 10 which makes sense. An ability score of 10 or 11 provides no bonuses and carries no penalties. It's average. The issue that I have is the scores that fall in the below average range. The 4d6 drop the lowest die method works okay, but it does open up the possibility, however unlikely, of a worst-case scenario of the player ending up with six scores that are 3's. A good DM is going to let that player or any player who rolls up a character who is a below average stinker to re-roll for ability scores, but that wastes time during character creation. It doesn't make sense to play a character with ability scores that are low across the board. It would be a challenge for the DM to create an adventure where that player wouldn't die every twenty minutes. It doesn't make sense in the game world either. Why would a sickly, weak idiot be out looking for adventure? They certainly wouldn't be looking forward to a long career. The point buy system tries to solve this problem, but it limits the available scores to a range between 8 and 15. There is no possibility for exceptional ability scores without racial increases. The best solution to solve the problem of low ability scores is to completely take them out of the picture. This can be done quickly and easily by changing the method used to roll ability scores. Just have the player roll a D12 one time and add a 6 to the roll. Repeat this six times and the player ends up with ability scores that all fall within a range of 7 to 18. Since scores between 7 and 9 still carry a penalty you can still make characters that have defects, but no score will be low enough to make that character useless. Do you like this method? Do you think the players will like this method? Let me know what you think. I'm not sure another ability generating method is strictly necessary, to be honest. By and large, your scores are going to flatten out, so you're really only looking at accommodating edge cases; my preference is to coordinate with PCs during chargen, and if they've rolled a truly abysmal score — or if they've got their hearts set on a particular character type/class that they don't have the scores for — give 'em another shot. It's interesting that in 5e, the system pushes you towards figuring out what you want to be, then rolling your abilities, which sort of bears out my approach. An alternative method might be simply to remove the cap on point buy, and open up lower ability scores to buy back points. That way if you've really got your heart set on 18 STR, you'd have to seriously consider the drawbacks of a 5 (or whatever) WIS score. I've always been a fan of knowing what class I want to play and then filling in my scores to allow that class. Rolling with my method eliminates the need for rerolls for terrible rolls. It doesn't add any work or take away anything from the character creation. It just simplifies things. http://anydice.com/program/56de 1d12+6. With only one die, you get a wild curve at the extremes. http://anydice.com/program/56df 3d4+6. Nevermind, this graph is symmetrical too and I don't know what I'm talking about. This method is probably too powerful for my taste. By the way, I can't recommend anydice.com enough. It's really powerful if you are savvy with it. If you're inept like I am, the person who runs the site is very helpful and usually answers within a couple hours on Facebook and Twitter. It's played a big part in the development of my house rules for character generation and hit dice. Here's my concern with the 2d6+6 method. With the 1d12+6 method you have a 1 in 12 chance of rolling any number over an infinite amount of rolls. With the 2d6 method there is only a 1/36 chance of rolling the extremes like an 8 or an 18. The ability score probabilities all clump together around 7. There is a 1 in 6 chance of rolling a 7, but there is only a 1 in 36 chance of rolling a 12. I relish randomness in my games. The first thing I did with D&D5 was create my 2-page summary of the rules, which I do with every RPG I read. The second thing I did was create random character generation tables. If I'm generating attributes randomly, I want the entire character to be random. Everyone who has played in my games loves this method – particularly the random backgrounds, which are definitely the best part of D&D5. Given that perspective, I have to say that this dice question seems like a non-issue to me. I think that d12+6 is a great way to ensure that the players have at least average characters. But the essential point of rolling dice is the gambling aspect: the balance of risk vs. reward. Removing the risk (or simply lessening the risk) begs the question: why use dice at all? The assumption that a character with all six attributes as 3s is undesirable is flawed. First of all, rolling all 1s on 18 rolls (or 24 rolls, if you're talking the now-standard 4d6 method) is so fantastically improbable that any gamer who actually did that would scream with delight at the amazing once-in-a-lifetime, no-one-will-believe-this aspect. Second, playing a character with incredibly low stats is FUN, particularly as the probabilities make it that the opportunity to play such characters (randomly generated) are very rare. Only power gamers would balk at ever playing a character with way below average attributes, most likely because they don't see the fun in role-playing such a character. Why did a sickly weakling become an adventurer? What a great opportunity for a fun backstory! Also, we gotta admit it: D&D (in any edition, with the possible exception of 4th) is extremely deadly for beginning characters. You say in your article "It would be a challenge for the DM to create an adventure where that player (sic) wouldn't die every twenty minutes." But the thing is, the fact that dice are used in the playing of the game makes it very likely that characters will die, no matter what their stats are. D&D5 seeks to ameliorate this by dropping the XP requirement for level 2 down to 300, so that a lower percentage of characters will die before gaining 2nd level and increasing their chances of survival. But it's still a pretty high mortality rate, unless the DM is molly-coddling the players. So (unless the DM is such a softie), players shouldn't have the expectation that their new characters will survive long, *no matter what the character's attributes are.* They should have hope, but not the expectation. Given that each beginning character they generate is more likely to die than survive, the cost of having a low-attribute character is even less (and the delight, on the off-chance that the 'underpowered' character is the one who gets lucky with the INIT and ATK rolls and manages to survive, even greater). An example: INIT is incredibly important. A character with 18 DEX is going to get a +4 to INIT, while a character with a 3 DEX is going to get -4 to INIT. That seems pretty big, but the fact is that they are equally likely to have a 5 for initiative in combat, because with the 1d20, any number is equally likely to be rolled. So Barry Badass, with his all 18s, walks into a cave with Larry Loser, who has all 3s, and they run into 1d6 goblins. The DM, Barry's and Larry's players all roll for INIT, and the goblins (rolling a 16) get 18, Larry (player rolled 17) gets a 13, and Barry (player rolled 8) gets 12. If the goblins are lucky on their attack rolls, both characters get slaughtered. Finally, I'd like to respond to the idea that re-rolling extends character creation. Maybe there are new players who don't know the high mortality rate, or maybe there're players who are fed up after the last 10 characters have died and the DM wants to help them feel good and so allow them to re-roll low stats (what you referred to as a "good DM"); this doesn't take long at all, unless the players can't do rudimentary addition, and in that case, the DM could tell them the result each roll. Seriously, the dice rolling is the fastest part of character generation. It's the rest of chargen that takes a long time; the picking of spells, the writing-down of equipment (or even buying it, if you allow the players to buy gear as part of chargen), the reading of all the class abilities, choosing the background….each of these take ten times as long as rolling dice. So, to summarize: d12+6 is a great method to generate stats for a supers campaign where there are few below-average people. Otherwise, I don't think it's necessary.

The twisting spiral guitar and dissonant synth sound of Kamoos was formed in Berlin when British expat Juliette and Berliner Vivi, whom had both been playing in scene garage bands decided to team up and start a band together. In their modest rehearsal room in East Berlin, which they shared with now label mates Gurr, Juliette and Vivi would bang out tunes of awkward but catchy harmonies and heavy beats until they moulded what was to become the distinct hypnotic post punk sound of Kamoos. Drummer Felix joined some months later after being introduced to the band who had seen him perform in another band and they went about luring him to join their team. Kamoos' influences are broad, including everything from Talking Heads to the Black Lips to M.I.A. to Nirvana to the Budos Band, but most importantly they are interested in people who have their own style, are beat- driven, and have a tendency to lean towards the discordant. "Xray Me feels like a cross-over between Love Buzz by Shocking Blue and something out of a David Lynch movie" Juliette sais.

US gives green light for sale of F-35B fighter jets to Singapore, pending Congress approval A US Marine Corps Lockheed Martin F-35B fighter jet hovers over the runway at the Farnborough International Airshow. (File photo: REUTERS/Peter Nicholls) By Johannes Tjendro 10 Jan 2020 01:12PM (Updated: 10 Jan 2020 02:47PM ) WASHINGTON, DC: The United States will go through with the sale of up to 12 F-35B fighter jets to Singapore, pending approval by Congress, according to a Defense Security Cooperation Agency news release on Thursday (Jan 9). Singapore's request to buy four F-35B fighter jets, with the option of buying eight more, for an estimated cost of US$2.75 billion (S$3.71 billion) has been approved by the State Department, said the agency, adding that it had notified Congress of the possible sale on Thursday. The B variant of the F-35 is a more sophisticated version that is able to perform shorter take-offs and land vertically. READ: F-35 - How the fifth-generation fighter jet can take RSAF to the next level "This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States," said the Defense Security Cooperation Agency. "Singapore is a strategic friend and major security cooperation partner and an important force for political stability and economic progress in the Asia Pacific region." Commentary: Was Singapore's announcement to buy a small number of F-35s too slow, too tentative? Singapore's Ministry of Defence first announced its intention to add the F-35 to its air force fleet in January last year, after identifying it as the "most suitable replacement" for its ageing F-16s. In March 2019, Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen revealed that Singapore would first buy four of the jets for complete testing, with the option of another eight. The fifth-generation fighter jet boasts some of the latest stealth, networking and sensing capabilities. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency - part of the Department of Defense - said the F-35 stealth fighters will enhance Singapore's ability to "defend its borders and contribute to coalition operations with other allied and partner forces". It added that the sale "will not alter the basic military balance in the region". READ: North Korea calls South Korea's F-35 jet purchases 'extremely dangerous action' At the Committee of Supply debate in March, Dr Ng said the ministry would issue a Letter of Request to the US regarding the purchase, adding that Singapore had the endorsement of both the US administration and the Department of Defense for the proposed sale. Safety concerns for the F-35, however, were raised when Japan lost one of its pilots last April, after his F-35 fighter jet crashed into the Pacific Ocean. Japan's air force said spatial disorientation was the likely cause of the incident. Defense news reported in June that the F-35 continued to be marred by technical glitches that, if left unfixed, could risk pilot safety and the jet's ability to accomplish its mission. Dr Ng nonetheless expressed his confidence in a June interview that the glitches would be fixed before the F-35s are delivered to Singapore. Source: CNA/jt(rw) Singapore Armed Forces MINDEF

Often, these scholars examine processes by which parental attachment, supervision, and coercion either inhibit or encourage adolescent delinquency. However, despite its prominence in scholarship on child development and its potential applicability to criminological theory, few criminologists have considered the part that autonomy-supportive parenting, or parenting practices that foster an adolescent's capacity for independent decision-making, might play in encouraging or inhibiting delinquent behavior. I propose specific hypotheses linking parental autonomy support to adolescent delinquency through theoretical mechanisms that are well-known to criminologists, including self-control, reactance, and peer processes. Multilevel regressions are then presented that model linkages between adolescents' reported exposure to early autonomy-supportive parenting (at ages 10-12) and their self-reported participation in common delinquency from ages 10 to 17, using data from the Children of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (C-NLSY79). Overall, the findings suggest that early autonomy-supportive parenting is related to adolescent delinquency; however, the nature of this relationship depends upon whether the type of autonomy-supportive parenting is behavioral, communicative, or psychological, and depends upon the stage of adolescence examined. Finally I conclude with a brief discussion of implications and limitations of the findings and directions for future research. Brauer, Jonathan R.

Multilevel longitudinal Poisson regressions show that behavioral control, psychological control, and decision-making autonomy in early adolescence (ages 10-11) are associated with delinquency trajectories throughout adolescence (ages 10-17). Path analyses reveal support for three mediation hypotheses. Parental monitoring (behavioral control) is negatively associated with delinquency in the short term and operates partly through changes in self-control. Parental pressure (psychological control) shows immediate and long-lasting associations with delinquency through changes in self-control and delinquent peer pressures. Decision-making autonomy is negatively associated with delinquency in the long term, yet may exacerbate delinquency in early adolescence by increasing exposure to delinquent peers.

We investigate this possibility by analyzing longitudinal data from a sample of children and their mothers drawn from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. We introduce a series of age, cohort, and maternal employment interaction terms into multilevel models predicting child well-being to assess whether any potential short-term or long-term effects of early and current maternal employment vary across birth cohorts. Results indicate that maternal employment largely is inconsequential to child well-being regardless of birth cohort, with a few exceptions. For instance, children born in earlier cohorts may have experienced long-term positive effects of having an employed mother; however, as maternal employment became more commonplace in recent cohorts, these beneficial effects appear to have disappeared.

China-India border tension could 'extend to winter' By Yang Sheng and Liu Xuanzun Source: Global Times Published: 2020/9/15 22:50:34 India defense chief blames China in parliament 'for budget' China-India In a speech before the Indian parliament on Tuesday, Indian Defense Minister Rajnath Singh asserted that the border dispute with China remains "unresolved" for now, and blamed China for "violating" the border agreement with India. Chinese experts warned on Tuesday that such a hard-line attitude may see border tensions extend into winter. Chinese analysts noted that Singh is trying to ensure domestic support and defense budgets from parliament, especially amid the unprecedented economic recession, so he won't admit that it was India which took the initiative to violate the agreement and unilaterally change the status quo. But the Indian defense minister on Tuesday also said India is committed to a peaceful resolution of the current border stand-off with China in Ladakh, according to the Times of India. Hu Zhiyong, a research fellow at the Institute of International Relations of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, told the Global Times on Tuesday that "the Indian army is facing great pressure as winter approaches, with the logistical costs potentially being huge, and due to a horrible economic recession, Indian leaders understand that they are unable to launch a war against China." Data released by the National Statistical Office of India on August 31 showed India's GDP in the April-June quarter of 2020-21 slumped 23.9 percent. Among major economies, India's contraction was the sharpest, the Times of India reported. "But in the Indian military, most soldiers are of low caste, so even if they suffer hundreds of non-combat casualties every year in the stand-off with Pakistan due to cold weather, the government can still bear the pressure as the decision-makers don't really care about the lives of low caste individuals," Hu said. New Delhi is likely to let Indian troops do the same in Ladakh, and the People's Liberation Army (PLA) should be prepared for a long-term stand-off with tensions likely extend into winter, Hu noted, adding that although India dares not fight a war, small provocations would happen occasionally. Blame game and overconfidence Singh assured members of parliament that Indian troops are "ready to deal with any situation," despite the current situation being very different from what India has had to encounter previously in terms of troops and the number of friction points. He laid the blame of escalation on "China's actions," according to Indian media Business Insider. "Chinese forces have been engaging in violent conduct. They have increased troop numbers and weaponry," said Singh. Highlighting the points of friction - like eastern Ladakh, Gogra, Kongka La, and Pangong Lake's north and south banks - he accused China of violating the 1993 and 1996 agreements the two countries reached. "Singh is telling the parliament that the long-term stand-off would be costly and Indian taxpayers should pay more to support the military, but in fact, it was Indian troops who broke the agreements numerous times, by firing into the air on the border and attacking Chinese soldiers to escalate tension, and the Indian military should be held accountable for the unnecessary spending and casualties," said a Chinese expert who is familiar with the matter but requested anonymity. Liu Zongyi, secretary general of China and South Asia Cooperation Research Center at the Shanghai Institutes for International Studies, told the Global Times on Tuesday that, until today, India has deployed more troops than the Chinese military in the border region, and the 1993 and 1996 agreements between the two countries stated that the two sides are not allowed to use guns on the border, but it was the Indian military who broke the agreement first on September 8. Singh's statement displayed overconfidence originating from an overestimation of the Indian army's capabilities, Song Zhongping, a Chinese military expert and TV commentator, told the Global Times on Tuesday. India believes that it has more frontline troops, and has prepared for a longer period of time, and that it is competent enough to win against the PLA. This is an illusion, Song said, noting that instigation from the US and India's domestic factional struggle will not let India realize its actual situation. Due to this illusionary confidence, India has already provoked China by crossing the LAC into the Chinese side. If it does not leave and all diplomatic attempts fail, the PLA will be left with no other choice but to push them out by force, Song said. The PLA, unlike the Indian army, is not overconfident, but aware that it can deal with the Indian aggression, Song said. The PLA, unlike the Indian army, is not overconfident, but fully aware that it can deal with Indian aggression, Song said. China's military strength, including that in the border region, is far more superior to that of India in key areas including equipment, logistics, tactics and strategies, analysts said. Liu said the Indian defense minister's speech on Tuesday showed that the Modi administration is facing heavy domestic pressure, and now they are suffering from a dilemma. Launching a war against China will see it defeated badly, but withdrawing its troops to end the tension will disappoint domestic nationalists. "This is very similar to the situation before the 1962 China-India border conflict, which is not a good sign for the two sides to solve the issue peacefully," Liu further said.

The latter, on his election, dismissed an anonymous letter writer who accused his family of monopolizing the county with the retort that he was independent, attached to the government only by principle and confidence and received independent support.2 Though more nervous than his uncle about his hold over the county, anxious to gratify even newcomers to the roll and ever on the look out for 'the first symptom of hostility', Robert Dundas met with no opposition, nor, when he left the House as chief baron in 1801, did his cousin, Henry Dundas's heir Robert. On that occasion, Henry Dundas informed the premier Addington, 9 May 1801: Although from the strength of my family and personal interest, and the personal popularity of my son I do not entertain any serious apprehensions with regard to his success in the county, still it is never right to allow speculations to get afloat which would be the case if he did not immediately come forward, and therefore he cannot delay immediately announcing his intentions.3 Robert Dundas was threatened with an opposition when the Whigs took office in February 1806, being privately informed by Lord Moira that his opponent would be John Clerk, advocate, of Eldin, Fox's choice as solicitor-general for Scotland. He at once circularized for support and an anonymous advertisement of 28 Feb. gave him further notice that, though there was no dissolution in sight, 'at a proper time' a candidate would appear to challenge him; but he was reassured by the replies in his favour, and the 'secret machinations' he feared evaporated when on 10 Mar. he reported to his father Lord Melville, 'My opponents in Midlothian now pretend to say that George Ramsay [of Whitehill] was the candidate they wished to support, and that as he has declared in my favour they do not suppose there will be any other candidate'.4 So it proved, despite a subsequent and forlorn attempt to enlist Capt. Alexander Charles Maitland of Clifton Hall, the Earl of Lauderdale's cousin, as candidate. The next test of the family strength came when Robert Saunders Dundas succeeded to his father's title in 1811. On 10 June Sir Hew Dalrymple Hamilton informed Lord Grenville: I don't know whether you may have heard that I have prevailed upon my cousin Sir John Dalrymple to stand a candidate for Midlothian in opposition to Sir George Clerk supported by the Melville interest. I do not think we shall carry it at present but I look with confidence to the result at the general election. Sir John Hamilton Dalrymple†, 5th Bt. of Cousland, who was sponsored by Lauderdale on the Whig interest, came nowhere at the by-election. It was thought that Baird of Newburgh would have been a better candidate. Even so, James Dewar of Vogrie had informed the 2nd Viscount Melville beforehand that Clerk was considered 'much too young and inexperienced' and that 'nothing but the support of your family could prevent very strong opposition', even from 'your warmest friends', of whom Dewar considered himself one, having declined an invitation to offer himself.5 Yet Melville insisted on Clerk. On 4 Dec. 1811 Dalrymple, who had renewed his canvass, reported to William Adam, whose help he enlisted, that he had '45 promises, about ten as good as promises and towards the same number nearly disposed'. This, he thought, could carry the county without a change of government; if his friends returned to power, he was certain of his success, though he feared that 'many people have bought votes here to make by them'. He found it difficult to calculate in advance, however, because 'the people of this country whether friendly or otherwise to you ... seem to study to keep you in the dark with respect to their intentions in political matters', and because 'all here were under obligations to the Dundases'—including himself. This did not warrant the county being 'in the hands and at the disposal of one family', and as his opponent was not a member of that family he need not plead guilty of ingratitude.6 On 7 Mar. 1812 John Wauchope WS, whom Melville relied on for support, reported to George Home: Sir John Dalrymple is getting on in this county. He is most persevering—keeps open house and attentive to everybody. At a late Dalkeith ball he had Sir George Clerk's sister for his partner. She was quite pleased with him. This is carrying on the war in style. He has succeeded in getting the laird of Edmonstone. If there was to be a change of ministry ... I would not say what might happen in this county. On 26 Mar. 1812 Sir George Clerk reported the 'state of Midlothian' to be for Clerk 51, for Dalrymple 38, absent 20, doubtful 17, which was scarcely reassuring. In the summer, there being no change of government, Dalrymple evidently changed his mind about his prospects and would have been relieved if he could have withdrawn honourably, but he went on. His friends still had hopes of his success. Lady Minto informed her husband on the eve of the election: Your cousin Sir John Dalrymple, old Sir John's son is neck and neck with Sir George Clerk for Edinburghshire. He is a very agreeable man and a Whig. Sir George is the Dundas candidate, but Lord Melville's interest is fast dying away. I don't understand why with all the family power in their hands, yet so it is. But a letter written to her son the same day by J.A. Murray was sceptical as to the possibility of defeating 'the Dundas and Buccleuch interest' in Midlothian.7 On 26 Oct. 1812 Clerk, on whose behalf the chief baron had been 'very anxious and active to collect the troops', secured the praeses and carried the election by ten votes. A few of Dalrymple's supporters were kept away by 'an able manoeuvre of the ministerialists' in arranging the Stirlingshire election the same day. Arguments over votes objected to on both sides and the admission of four out of five claimants for Dalrymple took so long that three 'pairs' went away without voting, or the result would have been 61 to 51 by one account and 59 to 49 by another, though Clerk's friends pointed out that six of their number were absent ill and three 'necessarily absent'. Some of these were privately accused of 'ratting', but nothing ruffled the genteel atmosphere of the election. Dalrymple, who also complained privately of absent friends, thought he had really lost by only one vote, as good votes of his were rejected and seven bad ones for his opponent kept on the roll. Clerk publicly claimed that he had lost a vote because of the rumour that he was being supported on condition that 'he should abandon the representation of the county, when some individual, more nearly allied to them in blood, should be capable of coming forward in his room'.8 Dalrymple made it clear that he would persevere, and by 1816 the report ran: The struggle in this county is going on briskly; Dalrymple has gained a few new votes this year; and the corporation of Edinburgh have been contriving some out of their superiority for the Arniston family who begin already to express their dissatisfaction with their own creature Sir George Clerk, in order ... to pave the way for the chief baron's son by the time he is of age. At the election of 1818, however, Dalrymple did not do as well as in 1812. While all new claimants on both sides were admitted, his objections to some of Clerk's votes were not sustained and he suffered from 'the ponderous influence of government' being against him, from the loss of six votes by his opponents 'conjoining the town votes to those of the county', which he meant to combat at law, and from desertions. The candidates' speeches made it clear that they were in opposite political camps, though Dalrymple's proposer cast him in a Melvillite role, not only to 'watch over the interests of this county, but of the whole of Scotland, with a vigilance that would never sleep'.9 In March 1819, when Clerk was re-elected unopposed on taking office, the lord advocate Alexander Machonochie made it known privately (and not publicly, to Lord Melville's relief) that next time he and his friends would support the pretensions of Robert Dundas, younger of Arniston, now of age, rather than those of Clerk. The young man assured Melville that it might be 'six or seven years' before he felt inclined to stand and Melville made reassuring noises, adding that if Robert Dundas did offer next time, 'I have no doubt you will find the county as well disposed to yourself as they have been for a century past to others of your family who have gone before you'. At the county meeting in November 1819, the Edinburgh Whigs, with Francis Jeffrey as their spokesman, could muster only 18 out of 105 votes on the question of confidence in the government. One of their leaders, John Clerk of Eldin, had just been struck off the roll and a political vendetta seemed inevitable, but it did not materialize.10 Sir George Clerk retained the seat unopposed and Dalrymple had to wait until 1832 for it.

Nicola Sturgeon covid briefing RECAP: FM says 'keep the heid' at critical moment for Scotland Nicola Sturgeon urges Scots to "keep the heid" and "redouble our efforts" as she explains the vaccine roll-out is breaking the link between cases and serious illness. Christina O'NeillDigital Journalist Craig Williams Updated 19:23, 30 JUN 2021 The highest number of coronavirus cases since the start of the pandemic has been recorded in Scotland for the second time in a matter of days. Latest Scottish Government figures published on Wednesday show there were 3,887 positive test results registered in the previous 24 hours - an increase of 769 on the previous day. It comes amid a trend of growing case numbers north of the border which saw 3,285 positive tests on Monday, the previous highest number since the start of the pandemic. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said on Tuesday that the peak may have been passed as she stressed that increasing Covid-19 case numbers come amid a context of loosened restrictions and less need for hospital treatment. Follow our live covid blog below for all the updates throughout the day 19:23 Gary Armstrong Booster jags could be given to those most vulnerable to Covid-19 Health Secretary Humza Yousaf has tonight welcomed advice from the JCVI which could see those most vulnerable to coronavirus given booster jags this Autumn. He said: "The Scottish Government welcomes the interim advice from the JCVI that - in order to maximise protection in those most vulnerable to serious COVID-19 - booster vaccines should be offered to certain priority groups from September. "The committee will consider additional scientific data as it becomes available over the next few months ahead of formulating final advice. In the meantime we have been working closely with NHS boards to plan for this potential booster campaign, in line with this interim advice. "The current COVID-19 vaccination programme continues at pace and remains on schedule to complete adult first doses ahead of target next month, and second doses in September. It remains vital that everyone has both doses of the vaccine for greatest protection. To make this as easy as possible, the number of drop-in clinics for everyone over the age of 18 is being increased across the country." Nicola Sturgeon responds to today's covid figures The First Minister has taken to Twitter this afternoon following the latest case numbers and says: Today's reported Covid figures show a further increase - however, the vaccination impact is still clear. Vaccines are now doing much of the work we needed heavy restrictions to do in the last wave. And thankfully, we continue to see a much lower burden of serious illness. We must care at this stage though, as we still have a significant % of the population not yet fully vaccinated. So, please: Abide by rules - especially on indoor meetings - & follow all health advice. Test regularly with LFDs, particularly if you plan to visit someone. Please get vaccinated as soon as you can - and make sure you attend for both doses. We are vaccinating just as quickly as supplies, and the clinical advice on timing of 2nd doses, allow. We continue to monitor cases - and, crucially, hospital/ICU numbers - carefully. However, by following all the advice, we all play a part in keeping country safe. Tomorrow's figures will be published by the Scottish Government at 2pm as usual. My next media update is scheduled for Friday. Today's covid statistics The Scottish Government has this afternoon confirmed a further 3,887 positive covid cases. Sadly three more patients who tested positive have died, taking the overall death toll to 7,716. 09:07 Craig Williams Scotland's Public Health Minister self-isolating after a positive test for coronavirus Scotland's Public Health Minister Maree Todd has confirmed she is self-isolating after a positive test for coronavirus. The MSP for Caithness, Sutherland and Ross is the Minister for Public Health, Women's Health and Sport. She tweeted the news on Tuesday night, saying she has no symptoms and is self-isolating with her family. Ms Todd also praised the work of testing staff and contact tracers. She said: "I've received a positive Covid test result today. "No symptoms but am obviously self-isolating with my family now. "I also want to say thanks to the testing staff and the contact tracers for their work. "They are on the frontline and are magnificent. Thank you all." Health Secretary Humza Yousaf also tweeted: "Sorry to hear my friend & colleague MareeToddMSP has tested positive for Covid. "Best wishes for a speedy recovery for her and her family." Nicola Sturgeon urges Scots to redouble their efforts My appeal to everyone today is a serious one. While we work hard to get people vaccinated, please help keep the virus at bay by taking care and following all of the vital health advice. I really do know everyone is sick of it - and include myself in that - and many are frustrated because we might think others are not taking it as seriously as we have been. But we are so close now to reaching the light at the end of the tunnel. Having come so far, let's redouble our efforts just for a few more weeks to make sure we get there as safely as possible. There are three key things in particular that each of us need to do right now, to get to those milestones with as little health impact as we can. I know everybody's heard this before but I'm stressing it again for a reason - with case levels so high, it really is vital that we all play our part in slowing the virus down while the vaccines continue to get ahead and do their work. Nicola Sturgeon says as it stands restrictions will be lifted as planned, however Scotland at a 'critical moment' Notwithstanding the increase in cases just now - and bearing in mind we need to keep this under review - we do remain hopeful that we will be able to continue lifting restrictions, first on 19 July and ultimately on 9 August. But - and this is an important but - how safely we get there depends on what we do now. This is a critical moment - I really can't stress that enough - and over the next few weeks, it demands renewed care and vigilance from all of us. The First Minister once more is urging Scots to get both doses of the vaccine. Sturgeon - 'Fewer people who get covid need to go to hospital' The impact of vaccination is also clear when we look at the data on hospitalisations. In January, more than 10%, perhaps closer to 13% of people who tested positive for Covid were admitted to hospital within 14 days of that positive test. By the start of June, that figure had fallen to 3%. In addition, more of those who are admitted to hospital with Covid now are being discharged relatively quickly. Again, that reflects the fact that most new cases now are in younger age groups. So fewer people who get Covid now need to go to hospital. And a higher proportion of people who do need to go to hospital are not staying in hospital for as long. Sturgeon - virus is now impacting younger people The nature of this wave of the virus is different both in nature but also in impact with previous ways. Let me just illustrate that. Over the whole pandemic, roundabout 13% of all cases, and 89% of all deaths, have been in the over-65 age group. However, because virtually all over-65s have now had both doses of the vaccine, that is changing, and it's changing really markedly. According to our most recent figures, those aged 65 or over are now accounting for just 2% of new cases. In recent days, more than 80% of new cases are in people under the age of 44. FM says vaccines breaking the link between case numbers and serious illness Nicola Sturgeon says the Delta variant of the virus is helping to drive the steep rise in cases that witnessed recently. However, the FM confirms the vaccines are breaking the link between cases and serious illness Sturgeon - race between the vaccine and the virus As we've been saying since the start of this year, we're very much in a race just now between the virus and the vaccines. And our job is to do all we can to make sure the vaccine stays ahead of the virus. I should be clear that we are very confident that the vaccines will ultimately win this race. The question is what happens between now and then. If, over the next few weeks, the virus gets ahead, unfortunately we'll see more people become ill, more people die, and significantly more pressure on our NHS than will be the case if we manage to keep the vaccines ahead of the virus. The problem we've got just now is that the virus is running faster than it has ever done before. The Delta variant that we are dealing with just now accounts for the overwhelming bulk of all new cases, and is significantly more transmissible than previous variants. Sturgeon - rate of increase in cases appears to be slowing down Today's case numbers reinforce the pattern that we have seen in the last week. There has been a much faster increase in cases than at any time since the start of the year. In fact, over the last 7 days we have reported more than twice as many new cases as we did in the previous week. In recent days, the numbers of positive cases being reported has been higher than at any previous point in the pandemic. It's important to put that in context. Firstly, and let me be clear that this is early days and we need to monitor this over the course of coming days. When we look at cases over the past week by the date the specimen was taken, as opposed to the date on which we report the test result, then what we see is a peak in cases last Tuesday and since then we have seen what appears to be a slowing down of the rate of increase. That's encouraging, but again, I would stress that it is early days. We'll want to monitor this carefully over the days to come, and see what it looks like a week from now FM comments on positive infection rate increase Nicola Sturgeon says today's figures highlight the pattern which has been seen over the past week, with twice as many new cases in last seven days than in previous week. She adds that early data indicates the third wave of infection, driven by the highly transmissible Delta variant, may have peaked. Without vaccinations, cases would be far higher with current covid restrictions in place, the FM confirms: Without vaccination, the level of restrictions that are in place now would undoubtedly be leading to far higher case numbers than is actually the case. Briefing begins The briefing has commenced with Nicola Sturgeon confirming the figures, and she says 13 more people in hospital while the number of people in ICU with Covid-19 remains unchanged from yesterday. 3,118 new positive cases The total confirmed as positive has risen by 3,118 to 277,335. Sadly one more patient who tested positive has died (7,713 in total), the Scottish Government has confirmed. Briefing about to begin Nicola Sturgeon is due to address Scots on the latest covid situation at 2.30pm. Manchester, Salford and Bolton travel restrictions lifted A temporary travel restriction between Scotland and parts of north west England is to be lifted. Current rules on travel between Scotland and Manchester and Salford – which came into effect on 21 June – will be eased at midnight tonight. A travel restriction on Bolton – in place since 24 May - is also easing. However, restrictions will remain in place in relation to travel between Scotland and the area of Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council, which continues to experience concerning case rates of the more transmissible COVID-19 Delta variant. The arrangements affecting that area will be reviewed next week. As with all measures, relevant local authorities have been made aware of the changes. Scotland overtakes north-west England to become UK's main covid hotspot Parts of east-central Scotland have overtaken north-west England to become the UK's main Covid-19 hotspot, new analysis shows. East Lothian is now the local area with the highest rate of new cases in the UK, with 595.8 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to June 24. In second place is Dundee, on 587.3 cases per 100,000. Hyndburn in Lancashire is third on 547.9, but it is followed by two more areas in the central belt of Scotland: Midlothian (520.2) and Edinburgh (503.5). All four of these areas of Scotland are currently recording their highest rate of new cases since comparable figures began last summer, when mass testing was first introduced across the UK. Hyndburn is recording its highest rate since mid-January. The analysis, by the PA news agency, also shows that Scotland is close to recording its highest ever nationwide rate of new coronavirus cases. A total of 15,918 confirmed cases were recorded in the seven days to June 24 - the equivalent of 291.4 per 100,000 people. During the second wave of the virus, Scotland's rate peaked at 301.9 per 100,000 in the seven days to January 4. 12:26 Gillian Loney Monday's record number of daily cases Scottish Government figures for Monday showed 3,285 people had reported positive Covid-19 tests in the previous 24 hours. This beats the previous record of 2,999 new cases on Thursday, which topped the largest number of 2,969 recorded the previous day and the high of 2,649 on January 7. No new deaths had been recorded, meaning the toll under this daily measure - of people who first tested positive for the virus within the previous 28 days - remains at 7,712. But the daily test positivity rate is 12.6%, up from 8.9% the previous day, and is the highest figure since 14.8% was recorded on January 8. A total of 202 people were in hospital on Sunday with recently confirmed Covid-19, with 20 patients in intensive care. These figures will be updated for today around 2pm - stay tuned for the latest here on our live blog. What did the FM say in last night's unexpected covid message? In a video tweeted by the Scottish Government, the First Minister said: "We're seeing a steep rise in covid cases in Scotland right now as we face the faster transmitting Delta strain of the virus. "The good news is that vaccines are providing significant protection, we're not at this stage seeing a commensurate rise in the number of people in hospital or becoming seriously ill from this virus, but it's important that we are not complacent. "There are still many people who don't yet have both doses of the vaccine - we're going as fast as we can - but we still have a significant proportion of the population that is not fully vaccinated. "If we are to avoid the virus running ahead of the vaccine, it's really important that all of us take care and be cautious. "I'm asking everybody across Scotland at this crucial time as we look ahead, hopefully to the finishing line, to do all of the things that help slow the virus down. "Let's all keep working together to slow the virus down while we allow the vaccination programme to get ahead, that will get us safely to the endpoint if we all pull together for this next period." Pandemic has pushed young Scots carers further into poverty The coronavirus pandemic has pushed young carers in Scotland further into poverty, according to a new report. Research by the University of the West of Scotland (UWS)-Oxfam Partnership found young carers and their families' financial difficulties have been exacerbated since the outbreak began. About half of those surveyed (14 of the 30 young carers) said they were left with no choice but to use foodbanks within the last year. Lou, a 14-year-old young carer who took part in the study, said: "Sometimes we have no money to do the weekly food shopping, so you have to spend differently - you can't get all the stuff that you want. "We always have to be careful with what we spend." The report is based on interviews and a qualitative survey with young people aged 13-17 who help to look after a family member at home. It also found some household members have been made redundant, have to work fewer hours, or face a reduction in their income due to the furlough scheme. Some family members are also putting in more hours of care to cover the lack of support services available during the pandemic. Dr Chloe Maclean, lecturer in Social Sciences, co-authored the report with and associate lecturer Dr Nicola Hay. She said: "Covid-19 has created challenges for many people; however, young carers have had a particularly difficult time. "Work by organisations such as the Carers Trust has shown that young carers' mental health has deteriorated during the pandemic, whilst their caring responsibilities have only increased. "Our research demonstrates the financial challenges young carers have faced. "We don't often think of children taking on roles which include looking after the family finances, but this study demonstrates that young carers have been forced to assess and worry about their household's financial situation, looked for paid employment, and limit what they eat, buy, or do to help make ends meet. "These are not actions that children in Scotland should have to take." Jamie Livingstone, Head of Oxfam Scotland, said: "This research confirms what many carers across Scotland have known for a very long time: that there's often an unacceptable poverty price for selflessly looking after a loved one. "However, the experiences shared in this research by young carers is particularly concerning. "If the new Scottish Government is serious about building a more caring country, then it should create a new National Outcome focused on valuing and investing in all types of care to drive measurable policy and spending action ensuring that no one - and particularly no young person - is left in poverty as a consequence of caring." Total of 153,767 deaths in UK related to covid occurred to date A total of 153,767 deaths have now occurred in the UK where Covid-19 was mentioned on the death certificate, the ONS said. The highest number of deaths to occur on a single day was 1,481 on January 19. During the first wave of the virus, the daily death toll peaked at 1,461 deaths on April 8 2020. Scotland fans travelling to London for England game blamed for covid case rise Fans travelling down to London and back to cheer on the Scotland in their match against England at EURO 2020 are being partly blamed for the rise in covid cases in the country. Health Secretary Humza Yousaf said today that a disproportionate amount of new cases were being recorded among young men under-40. And he blamed this on fans gathering indoors to watch EURO 2020 or travelling to the English capital 'in coaches' for the June 18 game. Full story here FM calls covid briefing for time later than usual Nicola Sturgeon is to give a coronavirus update today (June 29) amid a surge in cases across Scotland. It comes after Scottish Government figures for Monday showed 3,285 people had reported positive Covid-19 tests overnight - beating the previous record of 2,999 new cases on Thursday of last week. Last night saw the First Minister issue an emergency address on social media urging Scots to do all the things they can "to help slow the virus down" while there remains a significant proportion of the population that is not yet fully vaccinated. The FM is due to speak this afternoon, with an update expected at 2:30pm. She will be joined by Chief Medical Officer Dr Gregor Smith. Here's everything you need to know ahead of this afternoon's covid update. Glasgow records more deaths than births amid impact of covid pandemic Glasgow's population has been steadily increasing since 2006, when it was 568,480. In 2019, it was recorded as 633,120. The latest figures only cover part of the Covid-19 pandemic, from March to June last year. They show 6,220 births in the city, compared with 7,017 deaths.

If videos of Sonny are removed, will the legend grow? Gone from Youtube are two brief but vivid excerpts from Sonny Rollins' 80th birthday concert at the Beacon Theater on Sept. 10 — one showing the great tenor saxophonist in duet with percussionist Sammy Figueroa, the second documenting the surprise, climactic contributions of Ornette Coleman to the set, and Rollins' inspired improvised responses. What a shame! — from at least one perspective. Or should those visuals never have been made public without the artists' permissions? Though neither clip — evidently shot from the same vantage point, perhaps posted by the same videographer — was authorized by anyone or should have been permitted by the venue under standard presentation arrangements (though no one recalls an announcement being made in this instance forbidding flash photography and recording in any form), both clips depicted to the general public, at no charge, one of the most gratifying and unrepeatable meetings and performance by American musicians in recent memory. By the standards of any jazz-covering journalist, a once-in-a-lifetime onstage interaction between Rollins and Coleman, both 80 and revered as fonts of ongoing, enduring, in-the-moment musical creativity, is news. In olden times, a bootleg audio tape of such an encounter might be passed around avid fan-to-avid fan, duplicated in ever-worsening versions and promoted as a holy grail when years later the original was acquired by a museum (cf., the Savory Collection). Nowadays, members of the public and/or professionals are able to shoot fairly high quality digital documentary footage of whatever they see, wherever they go, on our phones — and disseminate it quickly, worldwide. Hours and hours of amateur video is available online, which some artists believe serves as free promotion, though it's content they're not getting paid for. Then too there's the notion of "fair usage" — if I write a blog post of Sonny's concert, it's a gift to my readers and should be a check on my accuracy if I can include a glimpse of what I'm writing about. As a professional journalist, I ought to seek and get permission from the musicians I want to feature — but that's not something amateurs usually are concerned about. Sonny's b-day concert was fantastic, most eye-witnesses agree. But without video proof, will the many odes to this show be believed or discounted? I spoke with representatives of Rollins' management about this on Sunday Sept. 12, urging them to consider putting out a comment that they didn't condone unauthorized video, but that Sonny had seen these clips and wouldn't demand they be withdrawn. Sonny's rep said that wasn't likely, but that they weren't going to pursue the matter, either. As a YouTube viewer and someone who creates and posts many videos, I believe it's the artist's choice as to whether or not unauthorized concert/club videos be posted. I know that when a fan shoots a video and then posts it on YouTube, it's not done to exploit the artist and profit from the posting, but to share the experience with the community. Some artists see these postings as promotion, and, for the most part, I would agree. In the age of digital media fans can easily record part of a concert and share it with their friends and the global YouTube audience. The videos serve to as a powerful marketing tool for the artist. When the Grateful Dead played, they would allow their fans to tape their concerts, because they knew that this network of collectors would enhance their reputation and solidify the community. The Dead made their money from live appearances, not recordings. But some artists simply don't feel that way. They want to control their content, just as a writer who publishes a book doesn't want paragraphs of their priceless prose quoted without permission. At the incredible Beacon Theatre concert Sonny Rollins played on September 10, there were many people taking pictures and recording the concert on video via phones. They simply wanted to document the event that they were lucky enough to attend. There's also the matter of quality control. Many artists only wish to release professional quality audio, and video, of their work. Even though the music played at Sonny's concert was superb, and the surreptitious recordings are okay, they're simply not up to his standards. If all the people taping had asked him, he probably would have appreciated their interest and support, and told them to wait for a more professionally produced recording. Is there an authorized video version of the concert? Rollins has been recording all his performances — which he now produces himself — and the resulting cd Road Shows, Vol. 1 was cited on many 2008 top 10 cd lists. As Primack notes, in situ recordings from the Beacon would probably not be of professional quality, so would probably not seriously cut into the sales of a well-produced documentary on the event. And I must add to his comment that writers don't want their prose quoted without permission that it happens all the time, and we're accustomed to not having the least bit of control over that. So what does Rollins' request for withdrawl (and Primack's ability to enforce it) suggest for the public (or professionals) now able to shoot documentary footage of whatever they see, wherever they go, on phones they carry — and disseminate it quickly, widely? How about some thoughtful discussion among artists and would-be videographers on parameters applying to "fair use" of excerpts of live performances? How about a general agreement that such excerpts be under 3.5 minutes, or no more than 60 seconds, or less than 1/2 the total performance; that clips run with a disclaimer of the artists' permissions or notification that they have been acknowledged and agreed to? Instituting as common practice and governing such "rules" would be challenging, and many complications could arise (what if more than ONE videographer were to put up excerpts that accrued into an entire performance). But those of us interested in the matter and likely to try to accommodate its ramifications while pursuing our own work as technology allows us to ought to talk about it. No formal copyright laws would seem to apply. Anyone out there have ideas on how to proceed? Can mutually agreeable protocols be established? Or shall chaos prevail? It is a pretty interesting situation as this is not a common thing for 2010. Of course it would be a different story (a non-story?) had it been me who wanted to remove a video of myself playing live. Controlling image and quality control are both reasonable concerns however I always find it amusing when my peers (with much less cache than Sonny Rollins) seem concerned when people are taking pictures (not withstanding an annoying flash) or video of our live performance. With jazz being such a marginal music we always need as much attention as we can get. Of course, this is not true for Mr. Rollins. I know I am going to take another quick look at it before it disappears. That is ashame. One would really be inspired to go on Youtube to search for such material or other material of Sonny Rollins. His birthday concert was one of legends. I agree with the other poster that jazz needs as much exposure as possible. I have always wondered why more professional jazz musicians do not work on getting a television station solely for jazz? Ah, Mr Rollins is smart, I believe he came up with the solution. First, the artists have the right to control the distribution of their work. If the subject is an ensemble, each member of the group would have the right to deny recording or distribution of the collective work. The only way to do this effectively is to have a professional recording produced. This gives control over quality, presentation, documentation (credits) and profits. This involves releases on the part of all of the performers and composers. As for bootlegs, it's again up to the artists whether to permit them or not. It worked well for the Dead, but with today's technologies, it is possible to get great quality, although with surreptitious recordings, there's usually unsteady video and a lot of club noise in the audio. IMHO, I think these only serve to increase the following of the artist and likely would not negatively impact sales of a quality recording, but there also may be performances that the artist may not to be released at all. (Bird's last recordings are heart breaking.) Still, I think that's a rarity among professionals, I'm still in favor of bootlegs if they're not sold. I think there's a great opportunity here for club owners here. Once a location is set up to video record performances at a club or theater, the performances could be routinely documented fairly easily. That would make the performers more likely to want to play the club, give both the club and the performers another revenue source and create a quality documentation of the concerts. Unknown artists don't have the capability (time, resources) to professionally record their performances. But you don't always know what performances or performers will be great. What would you give to see some early performances of jazz greats on video? These recordings of then-unknowns would age in the club like a fine wine. If Mr Rollins has recorded his performances, he must be planning to release them – a legacy and a good retirement income. And, if he understands YouTube, he will release a few professionally recorded excerpts to whet our appetites before they go on sale. I look forward to it!! I think Mr. Rollins and his management would do well to observe what many artists from Bruce Springsteen on down have figured out: letting fans share audience videos of you doesn't harm your sales. In fact, anecdotal evidence indicates that it builds your fan base. If Mr. Rollins is planning on releasing a commercial version of the concert on video in the near future, I can see his point. Otherwise, he's just cheating the public of catching a glimpse of this historic meeting. Kind of a cruel blow. HM: James, I can't think of Sonny Rollins and "cruel" in the same breath, especially after the enormous generosity of spirit he exhibited artistically last Friday night. I think he is operating in a somewhat oudated model, but also out of genuinely high standards of how he's presented and represented by his music. You and I would surely believe the clips were of high enough quality to be deeply meaningful — he's not always happy with what he plays, notoriously so. And I think that may be a genuine blocking point here, which is not vanity, anything but. I do wish his close advisors and he would talk the issue out, though, and come to a more open conclusion. Whoever shot and posted the 14:58 of Ornette and Sonny should win a Pulitzer. It was a perfect amateur clip, steady hand and keen eye, and it encompassed the entire Ornette/Sonny experience, from the anticipation of the mystery guest taking the stage to the moment they all walked off. But at the same time it's a patently amateur clip shot from the balcony, and the notion that it undercuts Sonny's eventual DVD sales or lacks some requisite level of quality is ridiculous. It's a sublime piece of verité and Sonny should have the wisdom to embrace it. Sonny, please! Over the past 30 years, I have been priviledged to meet, hear and record some of the greatest artists of our time. Usually that was in a club or performance space. Whenever I asked permission, I always made clear who I was, and that the recording might be used locally on our public radio station. Locally only, no other use or distribution. I really feel, deeply feel, that a live performance is one thing – an event, actually – and a recording is quite another thing. In no way does the price of admission (outdoor, free concerts are another matter) include the right of the auditors to produce a product using the 'raw material' of the artist's performance, unless explicitly granted. Furthermore, posting on YouTube or somewhere else is, I believe, usually an excercise in attention-getting, not for the artist, but for the poster. I was going to say that I don't understand the attitude that we are entitled to every bit of an artist's or celebrity's life. But I'm afraid I do understand it. We consume our artists, and we are a nation of overeaters. We seem to want everything and we don't want to pay for anything.

In June 1942, the F4U fighter entered mass production. In the middle of 1943, the F4U-1A variant began full-scale production. While creating this variant, Chance Vought's experts introduced some changes into the aircraft's design which contributed to its success as a carrier-based fighter. The main landing gear shock absorbers' stroke was increased, and their stiffness was reduced. The pilot's cockpit was drastically redesigned; to improve forward and rear visibility, which was especially important when landing on an aircraft carrier, the pilot's cockpit canopy was made convex, and the pilot's seat was raised 17.8 cm. The designers solved the problem of the fighter's stalling at near-minimum speeds in quite a simple way: a stall strip, 152 mm long, was fitted on the right wing in the area of the machine gun ports. When the left wing began to stall, which was typical of the F4U-1, this strip initiated flow separation over the right wing, leveling the aircraft out. The F4U-1A's armament consisted of six large-calibre 12.7 mm Colt-Browning ANM2.5 machine guns, three on each wing. The Corsair fighters were quite dangerous opponents for the Japanese fighters, so the Imperial Japanese Navy's experts wanted to take a closer look at the new American machine. The Japanese managed to capture two Corsair fighters which had made forced landings. One of them was an F4U-1A, and the planes had apparently belonged to the US Marine Corps and the Royal New Zealand Air Force. The Japanese successfully repaired one machine, using the second F4U as a source of spare parts and partially covering the damaged parts of the wing surfaces with canvas. This restored Corsair was flight-tested. After Japan surrendered, this machine was discovered by the Americans at the flying school airfield in Kasumigaura." encyclopedia page on aircraft; Japan fighters A5M A5M4 · Hagiri's A5M4 A6M A6M2 mod. 11 · A6M2 Reisen · A6M3 Reisen · A6M3 Reisen mod. 22 · A6M3 Reisen mod. 22Ko · A6M5 Reisen · A6M5 Ko Reisen · A6M5 otsu A7M A7M1 Reppu (NK9H) · A7M2 Reppu J2M J2M2 Raiden · J2M3 Raiden · J2M4 Kai Raiden · J2M5 Raiden · J2M5 (30 mm) N1K N1K1-Ja · N1K2-J Shiden-Kai · N1K2-Ja Shiden-Kai J7W J7W1 Shinden Hydroplanes F1M2 · A6M2-N · N1K1 Kyofu Ki-10 Ki-10-I · Ki-10-I C · Ki-10-II · Ki-10-II C Ki-27 Ki-27 otsu Ki-43 Ki-43-I Hayabusa · Ki-43-II Hayabusa · Ki-43-III otsu Hayabusa Ki-44 Ki-44-I Shoki · Ki-44-II otsu Shoki · Ki-44-II hei Shoki Ki-61 Ki-61-I ko Hien · Ki-61-I otsu Hien · Ki-61-I hei Hien · Ki-61-I tei Hien · Ki-61-II Ki-84 Ki-84 ko Hayate · Ki-84 otsu Hayate · Ki-84 hei Hayate Ki-87 Ki-87 Ki-94 Ki-94-II Ki-100 Ki-100 · Ki-100-II Other countries A7He1 · ▅F4U-1A Corsair · ▅Bf 109 E-7 · ▅Fw 190 A-5 Retrieved from "https://wiki.warthunder.com/index.php?title=F4U-1A_(Japan)&oldid=24513" Japan aircraft Second rank aircraft Naval fighters Premium aircraft With cockpit

emPowerU is a place and a program, The emPowerU facility is located in downtown St. Joseph, MO, and is housed in a renovated warehouse once belonging to an electric utility. The program is also offered at our Think Ahead Works Learning Lab, a renovated storefront in King City, MO. Both of these locations are technology rich and designed to support collaboration and possibility thinking. The emPowerU program was created to raise our youth's awareness to the importance of civic responsibility and to provide them with the opportunity to impact positive change, both individually and collectively, to make a difference in their communities. More than 20,000 students have experienced the impact of our challenge-based immersions since 2007. To date 62 Jump Starters grants totaling more than $350,000 have been awarded for youth led service projects in our region. emPowerU offers 3 unique sessions (circuits) that build on each other and can be spread throughout one or several years. Circuit 1 is a student-led, problem-based learning experience. Students are presented with current, complex, real world challenges to solve. They are then guided through discussions, discovery, and consensus building by our professionally trained facilitators. After agreeing on best solutions, students are then tasked with creating group presentations which are delivered in front of all students and addressed to the emPowerU Council. The adult-led Council asks questions and provides feedback after each presentation. emPowerU transforms into a new region of diverse communities for Circuit 2. Students become citizens of these small and large communities and serve in specific roles (mayors, commissioners, lobbyists, researchers, etc.). During Circuit 2 students are tasked with identifying problems/challenges in their community and then prioritizing these challenges. Once the biggest need is agreed upon, students create a plan of action that is presented at our student-led commissioners hearing. Communities then collaborate and discover ways to work together and improve the region. Circuit 3 is a facilitated experience where students examine their own community and come to consensus on an issue they would like to address. Facilitators help the students identify obstacles and brainstorm solutions. Once a plan is in place, students may apply for a competitive Jump Starters grant to help fund their project. This circuit is optional. Students may apply for the grant if they select a project on their own. A glimpse of some of the comments we often hear from students at emPowerU explains why they think their learning experience was valuable. Teachers are often surprised at the difference they see in their students at emPowerU. Here are some of their comments about the program. The emPowerU registration fee is $15 per student per circuit. A minimum of 15 students is required for participation in any of the three circuits. If your group is fewer than 15, you may be paired with another group or organization. Please contact us to learn about scholarships that may be available. Contact us today to learn more and to register.

'Rick and Morty' Season 4 Episode 1 reveals the show's scariest villain yet Step aside Evil Morty. Jake Kleinman Rick and Morty might be great at creating supervillains, but it's equally as bad at giving fans resolution when it comes to those characters. It took almost two full seasons to bring back Evil Morty, and we still haven't seen Phoenix Person since his big reveal in the Season 3 premiere post-credits scene. But in Season 4 Episode 1, Rick and Morty may have revealed the show's most intimidating supervillain yet — and it's one that could come back shockingly soon. Spoilers for Rick and Morty Season 4 Episode 1 below. Evil Morty at the end of "The Ricklantis Mixup" after he's taken control of the Citadel. Adult Swim The plot of Rick and Morty's Season 4 premiere revolves around Rick's accidental death and Morty's refusal to immediately clone his grandpa back to life. Instead, Morty chases a possible future with Jessica promised by a "death crystal" while an AI version of the mad scientist implanted in his grandson's spine keeps pressuring him to undo the death. (It's complicated as hell in the exact kind of sci-fi way that makes Rick and Morty so good in the first place.) "AI Rick" appears as a hologram that only Morty can see and it's incapable of interacting with the physical world. However, at the end of the episode, the AI melds with some kind of Venom-like symbiote and transforms into a giant evil Rick the size of a building. For a second, it looks like AI Rick could pose a serious threat until a Wasp version of Rick (I told you this episode gets weird) stings AI Rick in the eye and kills him instantly. So is AI Rick dead? Maybe not. After all, our original Morty theoretically still has that Rick hologram hanging out in his brain. And while AI Rick might claim to be harmless, we've seen what he'd do with a little bit of power — and it's pretty damn frightening. Then again, based on Rick and Morty's track record, you can probably bet we won't see AI Rick again for a very long time. But with 69 episodes left in to go, it's probably only a matter of time before AI Rick rears his holographic head again. Rick and Morty Season 4 airs Sundays at 11:30 p.m. on Adult Swim.

How can I make an NPC useful without overshadowing the player characters? I play DnD 5th and I find my group often has many NPCs accompanying them, like 4 players and 4 NPCs. Most have some form of tie to the group, but few are actually as useful as the group members, as the group already has healers/damage dealers/party faces/stealthy characters. From a story perspective, they have different motivations for going the same route as the PCs. So in combat, a couple NPCs don't do much, and the others are on par with the least useful party member. So in the end, the party dismisses the NPCs because they're "useless". On the RP side, when the (extended) party meets another NPC, I don't want to have NPC-NPC conversations where the party is ignored, so the party NPCs end up not talking much. If the external NPC says things that the party misses, I normally don't have party NPCs pick up on those things, as it feels a bit like cheating. I have party NPCs fill in lore bits and background details, but the plot connections I leave to the PCs. So again, the NPCs are "as dumb" as the players, rarely offering an key insight or a brilliant idea. I don't want to cut the NPCs out of the game; I think they should be used to provide a nice depth to the world. They give the PCs a chance to form bonds that help enjoy the game. So, how can I strike a balance between: not shadowing PCs in combat, but still providing a useful contribution to combat? not shadowing the PCs while interacting with other NPCs, but still providing a useful contribution in said interactions? dnd-5e gm-techniques npc Please stop being evil SqueraSquera \$\begingroup\$ "I find my group often has many NPCs accompanying them, like 4 players and 4 NPCs" — how does this happen? do PCs hire them or what? 4 npc wandering with the party all the time are too much. \$\endgroup\$ – enkryptor Dec 12 '18 at 0:02 \$\begingroup\$ Following on from @enkryptor's question: is this an official published adventure, or a third-party one, or a homebrew one of your own creation? \$\endgroup\$ – V2Blast♦ Dec 12 '18 at 1:09 \$\begingroup\$ it's a homebrew. No the NPCs are not hired. In this case specifically they are with the party because they're members of a disbanded army in enemy territory, so they wouldn't split up much. \$\endgroup\$ – Squera Dec 12 '18 at 1:14 \$\begingroup\$ @Squera so basically it was the DM's plot to attach these NPCs to the party? Maybe this is the core problem? \$\endgroup\$ – enkryptor Dec 12 '18 at 15:16 \$\begingroup\$ @enkryptor yes, i attached them to the party. No, that is not the problem, a party with some NPCs going around exists in the wild too (see OotA) and it should not be a problem per se, as you can also see from some of the answers below. \$\endgroup\$ – Squera Dec 12 '18 at 18:30 Background:I'm currently running a 5e campaign with a large number of possible NPC companions and have run Out of the Abyss (which is HEAVY on NPC companions). The conclusion I've come to for combat is: The Companion System. Yes, it's not part of official rules, and isn't free, but it has worked excellently. RAW Out of the Abyss has each and every NPC use the stat block of the appropriate monster. At the beginning, there are around a dozen of these NPCs. Once I whittled it down to three, it was a bit more manageable, but still meant that I was playing a disproportionate number of rounds in combat. It felt like I was, if you'll pardon me saying so, just playing with myself. The use of multiattack from two of the characters was especially unbalanced. I have since switched to using the Companion System from the link above. I won't go into too much detail, because the person who created it deserves your money and clicks, but it gives companion NPCs small, supporting abilities to use in combat, and puts control of them into the players' hands. Any player can choose to control an NPC at any time, as long as they aren't already "claimed". Currently, as an example, I have a drow cleric accompanying the party. The drow can do one thing: cast Spiritual weapon, and use it. This adds a bit of damage to the 3-person party without being especially interesting, and one of the players will still get "credit" for any badassery enacted during combat. It also means one less thing for me to keep track of, which is wonderful. As far as RP goes, I try to involve my players whenever possible. Sometimes, as odd as it is it to me (and, it seems, to you too) they actually enjoy watching the DM talk to themselves. However, in these situations, I try to paraphrase information, and then either have an NPC address a player directly, or drop hints that the party should get involved. DM: "You come across two women in the street. They are arguing. [doing the voice of Woman 1] This other woman has stolen my wares! [doing the voice of Woman 2] I haven't! She's a liar! They carry on like this for a while, arguing loudly. It looks like they might come to blows if nobody stops them." Eventually, if your players are roleplay inclined, they'll get involved in a situation. As for interactions with NPCs that are already part of the party, I use two strategies: the first is always asking during down time if anyone wants to talk; the second is narrating what the NPCs are doing. Often times, the response to strategy one is a resounding silence. But I like to make that space so that players don't feel like they'd be interrupting anything if they wanted to talk. As for the second option, while running OotA, making camp and resting was a common thing. I would often narrate things like: As you settle down for the night, you can see that Eldeth is leaning against a wall and studying her battleaxe with a stony frown on her face. Jimjar seems to be practicing card tricks and looking around at everyone from time to time. Sarith is curled up with his chin resting on his knees, clutching at his head. This helps to build atmosphere, of course, but also suggests that everyone involved has something that might be a dialogue hook; the first person is unhappy about something, the second is trying to show off and get attention, and the third seems to have a nasty headache. Now, for the record, I've never had a player whose introduction to RPGs in general wasn't through Bioware, so they all understand the idea that you should be checking up on your companions pretty regularly. What do NPCs know? This may sound glib, but NPCs know what they should know. The aforementioned cleric is familiar with their home temple, but not so much with the surrounding city, and certainly not the rest of the continent. The well-traveled retired adventurer, however, knows a little about everything, although it may be a little out of date. Consider the NPC's backstory first, and then decide what knowledge and skills they have. As for bailing the party out, I count NPCs as just another tool in my box for unsticking a party. If they've gotten hung up on something long enough that they're clearly bored, I give them a little nudge. I treat these along the same lines as what I would do with any non-party NPC, and again, try to keep in mind what the NPC's skills and background are. When trying to infiltrate a temple, the drow cleric may suggest going in through a secret passage nobody else knows of, whereas a druid might suggest using their spells to bust in. This is a fiddly DM call sort of situation, and requires a good read of your players to know when they're no longer having fun beating their heads against the wall. Not all companions are created equal. In order to avoid overshadowing or overpowering the party, most potential companions are at the slightly-underpowered level that the Companion System offers. Some are less useful, and might need some training and protection; some are more useful, and might be able to offer training. Overall, my advice could be boiled down to: Use the Companion System, because it will save your life. Make your NPC party members integrated parts of the world, and let that inform their dialogue. Blue CabooseBlue Caboose \$\begingroup\$ thanks for the recommendations! i've found an alpha version of the Companion system, it turns out i already did something similar, i.e., i assign an NPC to a player in combat and it's their duty to manage them. The atmosphere-building chat is nice, i should incorporate it more! I think i made the mistake of indeed making the NPCs integrated in the world, but they're all far away from home and any part of the world they really know, so they're all PC-level clueless when it comes to some things. \$\endgroup\$ – Squera Dec 12 '18 at 1:20 \$\begingroup\$ @Squera Hopefully, they should still know something about the world. I have a paladin, for example, in this campaign, who is from a completely different continent than where the game takes place. But he's still a powerful paladin, and has insider information on how the overall plot is going, and what his particular deity is up to. This is, or can be, useful information, even though he's out of his depth. \$\endgroup\$ – Blue Caboose Dec 12 '18 at 1:29 I have two pieces of advice on this topic. Don't Join the Party The broadest way around this problem is to have interesting, involved NPCs that don't travel with the party. There are lots of ways to make cool NPCs that are reoccurring characters but that don't follow your players around. Some examples that come to the top of my mind are: A traveling merchant that has a penchant for attracting both danger and secrets. Every time he turns up, your players seem to have to save him from something, but he's happy to reward them with information he's learned since they last saw him. The head of the king's guard that your players work with while in the capital city. She falls in love with one of the PCs and promises to wait while they finish their adventures. She is always thrilled to see the party and periodically even joins them for battles if they are close by (she's very strong, but since her help is so rare, it doesn't unbalance things). The sorcerer twin siblings of one of the PCs who are studying the arcane halfway across the world. They may never even appear in person, but they send letters frequently along with strange magical artifacts that may or may not have a purpose. In your current campaign, I would recommend trying to trim down the party. The NPCs can each find something they would rather be doing and leave the group. If they stay in one place, then your players now have a powerful ally there. If they continue traveling separately, then they can reappear at any time and become a strategic tool for you. Make them Abnormal If there's some deeper reason why you really want the party to have so many tag-alongs, then you should try to find things that are out of the ordinary for them to do. DnD makes this tricky by treating all powerful NPCs as the same as PCs (they have a class, level, etc.), but you can give them quirky powers outside of that if you want. Maybe a magic user has a tremendously powerful spell, but needs 10 turns to activate it. They have to be protected until then, since it requires all their concentration if they are going to cast it. This might change the flow of battle from your party taking the offensive to taking the defensive and just trying to wait it out. You'd have to play around with it to see if it could work for you and your group while still being interesting and fun. Maybe one of the NPCs has a feat that lets them be really helpful with defense, which allows your PCs to be more reckless than usual since she is fairly good at popping up at just the right time with her shield between the attacker and the PC. The goal here is to set the NPCs apart from the rest of the party. They should have different abilities from player characters so that they stay interesting and useful. They should serve a similar mechanical niche to powerful items while being more interesting narratively. A Measure of DiplomacyA Measure of Diplomacy \$\begingroup\$ Oh yes, i was avoiding 1 to ensure i can build up enough PC-NPC relationship to use later on when they leave and return ... but nope, i should embrace 1 :D And 2 is nice and fluff-y, that should make NPCs even more interesting to bond with. \$\endgroup\$ – Squera Dec 12 '18 at 1:22 As someone who has also run Out of the Abyss (which, as L.S. Cooper says, is heavy on NPC companions), and someone who uses DMPCs a lot to pad out small partys when I only have 2 (or even 1) player(s), here's how I make sure NPCs or DMPCs can join the party but don't overshadow the PCs: Remember who's in charge: The PCs My NPCs or DMPCs that accompany the party, whilst they may be useful in or out of combat, generally don't solve the problems for the party. In combat, they will use basic tactics, such as a warrior simply charging the nearest enemy, a mage doesn't use fireball very effectively and will prefer using cantrips over using spells slots at all. If the players want my NPCs/DMPCs to do anything more tactically sound, they can discuss tactics with them and they will adjust accordingly, either that or they can shout orders in battle ("Fireball that large group!"); that way, if the NPCs/DMPCs do something awesome in combat, the players will feel as though they are somewhat responsible, since it was they who made the tactical decision, not the NPC/DMPC. Of course, this only works if the NPCs/DMPCs are on the same power level, so my Fireball-casting mage example wouldn't work as well if the party is still only level 3, for example. Out of combat too, the NPCs/DMPCs won't solve any puzzles or look for traps or anything, because as DM I know exactly where the traps and are what the solutions to the puzzles are, so once again control is given to the PCs and the players. I go into this a bit as part of this answer to a different question , but in short, let's say the NPC/DMPC is a rogue; the players can ask that rogue NPC/DMPC to check for traps, even though I as the DM know whether there are traps or not, but my rogue NPC/DMPC doesn't, so he checks, although it wouldn't occur to him to do so unless one of the PCs suggests it; that way, my character's knowledge and my DM knowledge do not cross-contaminate. This also means that, as with combat, if the rogue finds and disarms a trap, because it's the players that made the decision, they'll feel responsible for solving that problem, even if they did so with my NPC/DMPC's skill set. They should still have their own goals and personalities In Out of the Abyss specifically, there's a minor character, a Duergar named Hemeth, who you can rescue and who has no personality outside of a brief description, so I've decided (since he's become an NPC follower, then an DMPC) that he's a greedy grump who is only really interested in money, but at the same time feels that he owes the party for rescuing him, so he will always be taking the least altruistic angle, but will begrudgingly do what the party ask him, sometimes more or less grumpily depending on how well it aligns with his own goals. If the party members ever ask his opinion on anything, his response will always be driven by his own goals, so it's always about what will make him money or otherwise whatever involves saving his own hide, even though our good party members are inclined to be more self-sacrificing. Therefore there can be a few "in character arguments", but because the players know he'll ultimately do as he's told, it simply adds to the character's flavour, but only because I've managed to endear him to the party. He doesn't know anything that the party doesn't (except for some Duergar-specific information, so he'd know his way round the Duergar city, for example) so I don't let him know anything about what I'm planning as DM, since he wouldn't have any way to know anything anyway. Of course, with Out of the Abyss, stopping the demon lords from destroying everything is a pretty good way to motivate people, so even though Hemeth is evil but the party includes good PCs doesn't conflict too much because they have a common goal, but it's still worth remembering that, although these NPCs/DMPCs should have their own goals and personalities, there should still be a common reason to keep them together, otherwise the reason for the NPC/DMPC to follow the party doesn't make sense and breaks the suspension of disbelief somewhat. NathanSNathanS NPCs cover the gaps Unless you are running for a very large party there will be something your party is bad at. Maybe they lack healing, or survival skills, or only have one tank. Find the areas your party is lacking and let the NPC shine in those areas. This way the party will still get to show off but the NPC will help them be better overall. This fits with the traditional role of hired help. The party wants the NPC around to fill a role they can't otherwise, but they aren't so good that the PCs are overshadowed. In Combat Have you NPCs play off the action of the PCs in combat. In your narration of combat make sure to point out how the PC's action gave the NPC the opportunity. For example compare the following situation. Player: "I attack the orc." Rolls 13, miss DM: "You swing your sword but the Orc dodges easily. The NPC also attacks the orc. Rolls 17, hits, 10 damage Player: feels disappointed and useless DM: "You swing your sword at the orc. He manages to deflect it but your attack provide an opportunity for the NPC to slip under his guard." Rolls 17, hits, 10 damage "They smile and nod a thank you as they withdraw their blade." Player: feels like a cool teammate Clearly the second option is the outcome we want. The NPC can still be useful but it was the actions of the PC that allowed them to be so. The PC is still a hero even if they had a little help. Additionally you can choose abilities or classes for your NPCs that synergize with your players. Rogue players needs advantage? NPC likes to cast Faerie Fire. Fast moving enemy outrunning your fighter? Hold Person. The exact combination will depend on your players and situation but things like that will make your players will cool while still appreciating the usefulness of the NPC. Out of Combat Give your NPCs unique personalities, background and knowledge. Find a reason for your players to want to engage them in conversation. It's likely that the NPC will be local to the area while the PCs may not. This gives them an edge for all sorts of information the PCs won't have. You should avoid having NPCs that are good problem solvers however. I made this mistake early on, giving the party an NPC ranger to help investigate a problem. The party expected the local ranger to basically solve everything on their own. You need to give your NPCs limits. Maybe they aren't that clever, maybe there is some other reason why they can't solve this on their own. NPCs should expand the toolset of the party without giving them an easy out to every problem. Don't Overstay Your Welcome You should avoid having NPCs join the party for more than a session or two. NPCs are not an extra party member and the longer they hang around the harder it will be to find a reason for them to leave. Always keep in mind why the NPC is with your party, when that reason ends the NPC leaves with it. They can always come back later but they don't need to follow the party around. I find it easier and more interesting to have my recurring NPCs show up only occasionally. Usually they are tied to a location and are only around as long as PCs are in town. This allows me to write character development arcs for the NPCs. The lives of NPCs continue off screen and your players will be interested to learn what happened to their favourite shop keeper since they last saw him. In summary, try to create interesting NPCs that complement the party by filling skill or knowledge gaps. Don't join the party for more than a few sessions at a time. Give your NPCs their own lives outside the party. linksassinlinksassin Make them all complement the PCs. Rogues and other teamwork-based or defensive classes are good at this. What this does is it makes them feel like partners, not rivals. Examples include a rogue NPC helping a PC rogue to flank with him, an NPC cleric healing his friends, or a paladin to defend an archer. Overall, this makes the players want to work with them and helps build friendships, and if they leave/die, the players feel at a loss but not crippled. I hope this helps, as I have had the same problem. \$\begingroup\$ "I hope this helps, as I have had the same problem." - Have you used this technique in your own games? Has it worked effectively in the ways you describe? \$\endgroup\$ – V2Blast♦ Dec 12 '18 at 1:47 \$\begingroup\$ yup, fairly well, though my players don't have to many npc's with them. \$\endgroup\$ – user55696 Dec 14 '18 at 3:02 \$\begingroup\$ You should edit your experience with your suggestion (ideally providing a little more detail) into your post to support it as a good solution to the problem. \$\endgroup\$ – V2Blast♦ Dec 14 '18 at 3:57 When I was running Out of the Abyss, it had a lot of NPCs traveling with the players. Something that I found helped for me was to give a majority of control to the players as far as their actions. I kept the knowledge and gave it out when necessary; I even did the roleplaying, but you could even consider giving that to the players as well. This made it easier for me to not have to keep track of the NPCs and it also allowed the PCs to become more attached. GoopbgoneGoopbgone Not the answer you're looking for?

PubMed RSS Feed - -NLRP3 A439V Mutation in a Large Family with Cryopyrin-associated Periodic Syndrome: Description of Ophthalmologic Symptoms in Correlation with Other Organ Symptoms. By rss, May 3, 2016 in RSS NLRP3 A439V Mutation in a Large Family with Cryopyrin-associated Periodic Syndrome: Description of Ophthalmologic Symptoms in Correlation with Other Organ Symptoms. J Rheumatol. 2016 May 1; Authors: Sobolewska B, Angermair E, Deuter C, Doycheva D, Kuemmerle-Deschner J, Zierhut M OBJECTIVE: Cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) is a group of inherited autoinflammatory disorders caused by mutations in the NLRP3 gene resulting in the overproduction of interleukin 1β. NLRP3 mutations cause a broad clinical phenotype of CAPS. The aims of the study were to evaluate clinical, laboratory, and genetic features of a 5-generation family with CAPS focusing in detail on ocular symptoms. METHODS: In a retrospective observational cohort study, consecutive family members were screened for the presence of the NLRP3 mutation. Patients underwent standardized clinical, laboratory, and ophthalmological assessments. The genotype-specific risk of ophthalmological findings and other organ symptoms was determined. RESULTS: Twenty-nine patients were clinically affected. The A439V mutation encoded by exon 3 of the NLRP3 gene was found in 15 of 37 family members (41%). The most common clinical features were musculoskeletal symptoms, headaches, and ophthalmological symptoms. The mutation-positive patients were characterized by more frequent skin rashes, ocular symptoms, arthralgia, arthritis, and severe Muckle-Wells syndrome (MWS) Disease Activity Score. Rosacea was diagnosed in 8 patients. CONCLUSION: The NLRP3 mutation A439V is associated with a heterogeneous clinical spectrum of familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome/MWS-overlap syndrome. Skin rash and eye diseases, such as conjunctivitis and uveitis, were positively correlated with this mutation. PMID: 27134254 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] {url} = URL to article

When I uploaded the sample code Indio_Digital to check if my D21G was working properly the LCD stopped working. The device seems to be executing the sample code just fine, but the LCD is non responsive, I can see the 4 LED's on inside the case. Is there a problem with the device? The light behind the LCD does flash when the code is uploaded. Reload this on Industruino and you should be back to where you started, make sure you instal first all required libraries. Thanks for the answer. I get that the code isn´t really meant to show information, my main concern is that the first time that I plugged the device, I got this "welcome to industruino" Message and a menu with the different I/O of the device and now it doesn´t show anything. Do you have any idea on why this is happening? I did tried to delete the other questions, but the site won´t let me, it says that I need mor karma to do so. Hi Aries, when you upload code which doesn't drive the LCD the last displayed image will show up on the LCD, as it is kept in the LCD's internal buffer. After a power cycle the LCD will not show any image as the buffer will be cleared.

Edinburgh entrepreneur wins NatWest everywoman award By IndigoDecember 5, 2019 Sara Hawkins of Edinburgh-based Projekt 42 was crowned the most inspirational and successful female founder of a social enterprise at this year's NatWest everywoman awards. The entrepreneur behind the not-for-profit gym and wellness centre in the city's Leith Walk, took home the Gaia Award at the glittering ceremony in London earlier this week (3 Dec), for creating a sustainable business model with a strong community benefit. The 34-year-old set up Projekt 42 in 2017 following personal experience. "To win such an accolade is just incredible. I was a finalist alongside 20 other inspirational women from across the country in the running to win a NatWest everywoman Award and I'm over the moon to have brought the Gaia award back to Edinburgh." Six years ago Sara was diagnosed with PTSD, unable to work and on long mental health waiting lists. Determined to improve her health, Sara self-funded a combination of fitness, counselling and life coaching sessions. Having seen the difference it made, she was determined to help others and set up Projekt42, having sold her home and donated the money to buy equipment. With fitness classes ranging from yoga, pilates and boxing, a key component of its offering is its holistic approach to wellness. It now has the largest team of counsellors and psychotherapists in the city outside the NHS. She added: "Projekt42 is a unique offering. It was the first wellness centre to combine fitness, yoga and mental health services. "We recognise that many people out there need counselling support right now, but are stuck on waiting lists in the health system. "With over 300 different classes each month to suit all ages and abilities, to our wellness services which include counselling and life coaching, we're committed to helping everyone. After all, mental health isn't something that some people have – we all have it in various degrees. "I am looking forward to scaling Projekt42 and plan to open additional sites across the UK." Speaking about the winners, Maxine Benson MBE, Co-Founder at everywoman commented: "Women in the UK do not lack ability or ambition, yet only one in three British entrepreneurs are female – a gender gap equivalent to 1.1 million missing businesses. Women are consistently less likely than men to believe they have the necessary skills to be successful entrepreneurs, which is why showcasing the success stories of winners is so critical. They demonstrate passion, determination and dedication often in the face of adversity. "We congratulate this year's winners and applaud their incredible achievements."

Home Sport Canoe & Kayak A look at Canoe Club: is my editor trying to kill me? A look at Canoe Club: is my editor trying to kill me? Thanks to the sport section's newest plan to splash some schadenfreude across The Saint's back pages, this couch potato was sent to join the Canoe Club's adventures at sea armed with just a wetsuit and a warning not to fall in. When I eventually found the boat shed, I was already slightly late, but what I found felt more like war preparation than a day at the beach. I suppose the North Sea is, essentially, the enemy. Not only a wetsuit, but a lifejacket, helmet, another jacket, some footwear and a cover for the top of the canoe were all thrown at me before I had time to ask if I should really not wear jeans. It was only now that I realized this might not be the pleasant kickabout in the park I was expecting. I became most nervous, however, while sitting in the kayak. Why on earth had I thought this would be leisurely? Probably because my only previous kayaking experiences occurred on a lake with my entire family and a lightly flowing river, breezing gently under the Pont du Gard. This was not quite the same. My friend had decided not to kayak during this session. "Any advice?" I asked at the last moment. "Don't fall in," he said. To be honest, I didn't intend to. I was led into the water by a helpful kayaker and thought it would be a good time to ask what my chances of falling in actually were. I could feel the kayak rocking from side to side, and I very much doubted that I was going to be able to overcome this new obstacle. However, I followed the kayaker's advice and paddled straight towards the wave. Amazingly, it seemed to work. "I've made it," I thought with joy. Everyone threw a ball around while we waited for the stragglers to join us, and the rather relaxed and calm atmosphere lulled me into a false sense of security. Then we were given our two choices for the session: surfing the waves or a "pier launch." Yes, you read that correctly. Canoe Club members push you off of the pier in a kayak. Wondering exactly what I'd signed up for, I decided that my best bet was to try some surfing. That would be easier, surely, than being shoved off of a pier. We started kayaking into the waves, and after a couple of misses, I caught a wave. It was a thrill until, of course, the wave spun me round and unceremoniously dumped me headfirst into the water. I immediately tried to get out, but I couldn't because of the cover. I slowly came to the realisation that I couldn't actually breathe and decided, after a good 10 seconds, to maybe try and pull on the strap I had been told about at the beginning. I collapsed out of the kayak and gasped for breath, feeling more than a little foolish. I slowly returned to shore and was helped back into my kayak. Then I got thrown straight back out. I fell in a few more times, once when the wave was so small it shouldn't have knocked down a tower of playing cards, but amidst the cold and wet, I realised something: I was having fun. Next, we were dragged along to a pier launch. If anything, I was more alarmed than scared, but the experience turned out fine. After a short moment of panic as I was launched off, I hit the water with an easy thud, and that was that. In actuality, it was the easiest part of the day thus far. We headed back in, and I fell one last time for good measure. I tried to recapture all of the positive feelings I'd had a moment before, but all I could think of were the freezing waves crashing against me, the fact that I couldn't feel my hands at all and the realisation that the last time I agreed to check out a society, I was attacked by people waving swords. In my frostbite-induced paranoia, this led to one conclusion. I think my editor is trying to kill me.
