Six Nations heroes bring trophy to paralysed player
Members of the winning Irish rugby squad were at Donnybrook last night as part of a fundraiser for a young rugby player who was paralysed from the waist down two years ago.
Jack Kavanagh broke his neck in 2012, putting paid to a promising rugby career. Despite the setback, he kept up his third level studies and maintained his keen interest in rugby.
The Jack Kavanagh Trust was created and last night there was a game between combined teams from Leinster's Jesuit and Holy Ghost schools
All money raised from the match went towards the Trust.
Rob Kearney, Ian Madigan, Fergus McFadden, Gordon D'Arcy and Jordi Murphy were among the stars to turn up at Donnybrook, with the players tweeting during the day to drum up more support for a most worthy cause.
The hashtag #UniteForJack is being used to highlight the cause and to raise financial support.
The game was refereed by international whistler Alain Rolland and saw the Jesuit Schools emerge narrow victors on a scoreline of 20-17.
As well as the Six Nations heroes, Sean O'Brien, Luke Fitzgerald and Kevin McLaughlin were among those watching in on in the crowd.

Truffle Risotto and Parmesan-Roasted Broccoli.
March 29, 2010 by Cori Sue
After a terrible week at work, I was really looking forward to a nice, relaxing meal with the boyfriend. And what better to cook than truffle risotto. I had been dreaming about truffle risotto since I saw it featured on Deux Maisons, an adorable blog on decorating, cooking and such by two lovely ladies in Texas.
I am somewhat of a neophyte when it comes to cooking, and had never made risotto from scratch. (Based on my love for cupcakes, it probably does not suprise you that I love to bake). Because I am a vegetarian (pescetarian to be specific), I substituted vegetable stock for chicken stock, which put me at a disadvantage right away because it is darker and not as pretty. Also, I do not excel at chopping– julienned? minced? I'm just trying to chop all the herbs and spices in less than two hours. Then, the risotto took forever and I was constantly terrified the vegetable stock wouldn't absorb and I would fail at cooking dinner for boyfriend. (Even the wine didn't help!). Luckily, it may not have turned out beautifully, but it was delicious.
We paired the truffle risotto with even more parmesan– roasted broccoli, with a recipe I snagged off the Food Network Web site. The recipe made boring broccoli delicious and uses basic ingredients that I always have on hand in the kitchen– garlic, olive oil, pepper, basil, parmesan and lemon. Basically, pine nuts and broccoli are the only items you'll need to grab at the grocery store. I will definitely be using this recipe again to get my veggies in in a good way.
For added sustenance, I whipped up some balsamic chicken for him and salmon for me and dinner was hot, delicious and satisfying, if not a little messily done. Success.
Dinner was paired with a Pinot Noir by Wine by Joe, a light delicious red with notes of blackberry.

Gaylord reports 91 percent profit drop
Gaylord Entertainment reported a 91 percent drop in income for the second quarter as fewer people are attending conventions at its hotels.
The hotel chain, which owns the Gaylord Texan in Grapevine, reported net income of $8.78 million compared to $106.8 million in the second quarter of 2007 when the company had a one-time gain of $140.3 million from the sale of its investment in Bass Pro Group.
Revenues, however, grew 36 percent to $258.2 million, up from $189.3 million in the same quarter in 2007. The company said it has booked more room nights for 2009 than they had for 2008 at this time last year through its group sales contracts. But executives added that net definitie bookings for future years has dropped 17 percent as conventions expect fewer members to attend.
"We are seeing higher than historic attrition levels across the brand, which have affected occupancy and will likely continue for the remainder of the year," said Colin Reed, chief executive. "We are confident, however, in our business model, the contractual protection we have and our ability to maximize profits given this difficult operating environment."
Of its four properties, the Gaylord Texan was the only one to see a slight decrease in revenue to $48.0 million, compared to $48.4 million in the same period last year. Revenue per available room increased 1 percent to $132.56.
In mid-day trading, shares of Gaylord [ticker: GET] had dropped 9 percent, trading around $28.80 at 11:00 a.m. CDT.

Very disappointing indeed. It's sad that the publisher didn't wait for the final verdict and decided to withdraw the book instead, but that must have been an economic decision. I for one, would love the read the book. It's always useful to hear and understand different points of view on religion (though Hinduism cannot be defined as a "religion" in our common understanding of the term), and especially a tradition as ancient as Hinduism, where so much is open to interpretation.
The Fate Of A Book
Adam and I have never steered away from banned books – in fact, if a book is banned, there's a good chance we've read it or we want to, sometimes simply because it's banned. Recently in India, however, there was a book that was not banned, but pursued by a lawsuit in a way that would make some of the overeager book-banners ecstatic.
According to NPR, the publisher (Penguin India) defended Wendy Doniger's book The Hindus for four years, but said it was "withdrawing the book because "a publishing company has the same obligation as any other organisation to respect the laws of the land in which it operates, however intolerant and restrictive those laws may be" .
I am fond of this book – I read it when it was first released, and have shared my hard copy of it with others, as well as having it as an e-book. While dense and at times complicated and perhaps overly detailed about historical data, Doniger looks at Hinduism from its start through its present, and provides sources and substantiation for her claims. It's not always pretty and it's not always what is considered the standard orthodox view, but neither is Christianity (Paul, after all, was often in conflict with Jesus' brother about how the church should be run after Jesus' death!), Islam, or any of a number of other facets of various religions. It's a disservice to any faith to try to whitewash it and make it eminently perfect: none of them succeed, and it often means there's a loss of valuable information that informs us about how it developed, discarded in favour of politically correct appearances.
The problem appears to be that it offends some Hindus, and India has a law that makes it a criminal offence to insult another's religion – which, allegedly, Doniger's book does. The New York Times extends this to look at the changing politics in India as well, fear of nationalist pressure and a sentiment that is if not anti-anyone-but-Hindus, at least concerning. Some have called it the start of the silencing of liberal India, because if someone cannot write or publish something which risks offence… will serious academic material be able to continue to be published, when it risks being critical of a religion (or possibly something else)? Another Indian paper also criticized the move – the media certainly doesn't seem sympathetic towards those who claim offence, and it's no wonder: this is arguably associated with freedom of the press, and journalists are concerned about the way this will play out for laws around writing.
Doniger herself is resigned, but disappointed because she and her editor went through to make specific changes in the copy Penguin India released in order to decrease the risk it would be offensive to Hindus. This is also not the first time a book has experienced issues due to offence, and it's likely not to be the last (the same man who filed the complaint about The Hindus intends to do so about another of Doniger's books).
Unfortunately, [it looks like Russia is not far behind](http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2014/02/06/272395072/book-news-hundreds-of-writers-denounce-chokehold-russian-laws?ft=1&f=1032) in terms of policies around publishing and text, as well as laws regarding religion – part of what got the Pussy Riot band members imprisoned was "inciting hatred against religion".
Notably, Doniger has commented on the fact that there is an e-book of The Hindus… and that the Kindle is available in India. She also doesn't seem to have a problem with the book being passed around by other methods.

The recent Vanilla Islands Ministerial Meeting that was held in the Seychelles brought renewed determination from Ministers or Regional President of Mauritius, the Seychelles and Reunion Islands and head of Tourism from Madagascar for the consolidation of the way forward for the regional organization.
Mauritius is set to take over the presidency of the regional body when Mr Xavier-Luc Duval, the Deputy Prime Minister of Mauritius takes over the Presidency of the Vanilla islands from madagascar in early June. It was Alain St.Ange, the Seychelles Minister responsible for Tourism and Culture who held the the position of President of the Indian Ocean Vanilla islands when that regional organization was launched. The Seychelles Minister was then voted in for a second mandate before passing the Presidency on to Didier Robert, the President of the Region of Reunion. In early June it is Mr Xavier-Luc Duval, the Deputy Prime Minister of Mauritius who will be taking over the Presidency from Madagascar.
At the recent Seychelles meeting it was agreed that the time was right for the Tourism Heads of the Indian Ocean to work even closer together to consolidate the indian Ocean region as the new tourism region of the world. Xavier-Luc Duval, Alain St.Ange and Didier Robert all three agreed to put even more effort in the development of cruise tourism in the Indian Ocean. They also agree to look at innovative ways to push cultural events forward among many other points that will now appear on the agenda for the Minister's Meeting that will take place in Mauritius in early June.
The CEO of the Regional Organisation remains Pascal Viroleau, the former head of the IRT (Ile Reunion Tourisme) of Reunion Island.


text: Rutgers Slams Student Paper's Pro-Hitler Parody Fake article attributed to Jewish student By Matt Cantor, Newser User Posted Apr 9, 2012 1:35 PM CDT 9 comments Rutgers University President Richard L. McCormick. (AP Photo/Mel Evans) (Newser) – A student at Rutgers has filed a complaint after a parody newspaper printed a pro-Hitler story with his byline. The university is investigating the situation as a bias incident, the AP reports. The piece, titled "What About the Good Things Hitler Did?," was attributed to Aaron Marcus, a Jewish columnist for school newspaper the Daily Targum. "No individual student should be subject to such a vicious and provocative and hurtful piece, regardless of whether the First Amendment protections apply to such expression," said university president Richard McCormick. Marcus had relatives who died in the Holocaust, he told local TV. "To say anything praiseworthy of someone like Hitler, and to have people actually believe it was coming from me, even in a satirical manner, is just really painful," he said, according to the Star-Ledger. The editor of the spoof publication, called the Medium, says the paper impersonates Targum columnists every year. This year, she says, editors picked Marcus thanks to a "distinctive writing style that would be easy to parody." (Read more Rutgers stories.)

Penhaligon's Bayolea is a bright and exhilarating fragrance, opening with a refreshing burst of mandarin, tangerine and lemongrass. The invigorating and warming heart of cardamom, black pepper, neroli and lavender rests on a resolutely masculine base of cedar, sandalwood, musk, moss, patchouli and amber. Made in England.
Editor's Notes: A bay rum seen through a different filter, Bayolea is a revived take on the classic fragrance style. Favouring lighter and more diffusive notes of soft mandarin, sprightly lemongrass and cool cardamom over the darker tones of clove and cinnamon, this is a bay rum unlike anything else. A real masculine gem.

Thankfully, it only lasted about 12 minutes before the sun came back out and it was pretty hot for the rest of the training session.
Penelope spent the entire tech playing with her soccer bff colouring and eating smarties. They love each other and get very upset when they each have soccer and miss each other at games and practices. They are super cute together.
Greg went on a great adventure after work on Friday and rode his bike 80km home from work. His office is not even close to 80km away from our house but he went all the north to like COP and Hidden Hills and then all the way back home. He was really sore on Saturday and spent a lot of time rolling out his legs but was back to being relatively ok on Sunday. We were both super tired from long weeks and days so we were asleep just after the girls went to bed. It was clearly an exciting night in our house hahah.
On Saturday morning, I tried desperately to sleep in but only managed to sleep in until about 730 and so I got up and made some cereal bars and 2 types of energy balls for our upcoming camping trip as well as some chocolate chip cookies because I promised Penelope + Mia that I would bring them some on Sunday for the soccer game.
Penelope had her final tech training that afternoon so Greg took her while cleaned up the house and got ready for her soccer party at Lake Sundance.
The coach of Penelope's team lives in Sundance so he had a team party for the girls and the parents, it was a great afternoon filled with food, fun and sun. The girls were so tired out after this that we got home, had supper and were in bed early. Greg sat on the deck for awhile and I had a bath and watched MasterChef and he watched TV while I fell asleep.
Sunday I got up early to go for my run and it was so beautiful out. It was so quiet and peaceful and just a really great morning. I got 6km in and ran it really fast which made me happy but my hips not so much. I had a quick shower and ate breakfast before getting the girls (and Greg) up for Finley's soccer game.
Pizza loves being outside and she attacks the door like a dog thinking that it might get her outside. She is such a funny cat.
On Sunday morning, Finley's team played their 5th and final game against the Foothills A team. We have had 2 semi close games against them and 2 absolute blow outs. We kept up against them for the entire game and with like 10 seconds to play, Foothills scored and we lost. The girls were not nearly as crushed as the parents were but they were excited to have played so well against them and not gotten blown out like they did last week. Hopefully this momentum holds up for their game on Wednesday night and their city finals next weekend!
Penelope ate too many cookies and then got spun on the tire swing too fast and too much and then barfed up all her cookies into the bag holding her water bottle. Why she didn't barf on the ground I don't know but she was fine after that so that's good. She said she thinks she was allergic to fastness hahaha.
After soccer, we came home and Penelope brushed her teeth and had a quick shower before she went to one of her best friends birthday party. Her best friend is moving to Windsor, ON in August and they are both very sad about it.
Greg and Finley dropped her off at the party while they went for lunch and to get groceries. I stayed home and worked on this blog and some other blogs and some laundry since I have another busy last week of school coming up.
I went upstairs to the bonus room so I could unload the photos off of my iPhone and was horrified at what I saw. I rarely ever go into the bonus room and so I tend to forget about it and it was an absolute disaster. Books, clothes, toys, paper, and garbage everywhere! I am really going to have to crack down on this room with the girls over the summer and going forward. There is no reason for it to be as messy as it was.
I had to take a photo of both sides because I doubt the cleanliness will last for very long. I needed photographic evidence haha.
Finley came to visit me while I was uploading the photos because it was taking forever. Penelope was downstairs doing failed science experiments in the kitchen causing massive messes. Escaping that was the only good part of my iMac being so slow that it took like 2 hours to get the photos off. My aunt and uncle also stopped by to drop off some cat stuff and for a little chat.
Penelope helped Greg make supper Sunday night and we had Princess Kitty Leia and a giraffe family who recently adopted a pink giraffe.
Greg and the girls played outside while I cleaned up the supper dishes and prepped all of our fruits and veggies for the week ahead. After that, I went to Chapters to get a gift card and then I met Michelle at the movies to see Rough Night. It had some funny parts but I didn't realize that the storyline was quite what it was. I would recommend waiting to watch this when it is on tv or netflix. That being said, I enjoyed getting out and eating popcorn with my best friend. It was a great way to end our weekend.
We are essentially super busy every weekend going forward until...well basically forever. I am not even exaggerating. Well the girls and I will be home for a weekend at the end of August because Greg is going on a crazy backpacking trip with a buddy. I was trying to figure out the next weekend where we had no plans and it was the weekend of September 30th and most likely both girls will have soccer evaluations. At least summer is coming and we will have our week days free!

What is your mindset when you go into a bout? Do you have a winning attitude? There is the old adage, "The person who believes that they can and the person who believes they can't are both correct." When you go into a bout you have to have to frame your mind in a positive outset.
Many of you had heard me talk about your frame when you get on the strip. When you get on the strip, tell yourself, "This is my strip. I am either going to beat you or this will be the hardest bout you are going to fence all day." Have the proper mental mindset when you approach your bout and if you do happen to lose, be a gracious loser.

I recently brought one of the first UK pressings of the White Album . The vinyls are glorious, they come with the original inner sleeves, the overall condition isn't perfect but it's far from tatty and all the inserts are here. However, I noticed a difference between the photographs. John Lennon 's postcard is made on thicker paper (I think the technical word for that is "card") and the rest of the photographs are on slightly-thinner paper. They all have the same gloss and the quality of the images are all the same, but I am concerned.
What type of paper were the photographs printed on in the 1st pressings? Is it possible that there were variations? Is John a 1st issue and the rest from a re-issue, or vice-versa?
Thank you.

Mine is A2021869.
Funny you should bring up the topic.
The number on the album cover actually plays a role in Into the Sky with Diamonds (I had to add a little levity).
It WOULD be interesting to know whether John Paul George and Ringo got 0000000001, 000000002 etc...

I'm sure there are other sources supporting that, but it's interesting that The Beatles Rock Band claimed Ringo has number 1. Wasn't there multiple number 1's anyway? A number 1 from each record factory! Ohhh myyy

What began unofficially in 2013 as Betsy's own wedding magazine design has now grown to a fully-formed collection of offerings.
If a picture tells a thousand words, then imagine how much your custom wedding magazine can say about your relationship. Your guests will cherish these keepsakes for years to come, and talk about your creativity in telling the story of your love for just as long.
Unlike Juliet unofficially began in 2013 when Betsy designed a magazine for her own wedding. She loved the experience of getting to showcase more about her relationship with her husband than what a guest would typically see in a simple wedding invitation or even on the day of the wedding. She included trivia, the story of how they met, and even detailed their wedding party. Just from the feedback and requests from friends and family that had seen or heard about her magazines, she knew she was on to something.
As Betsy's business grew, so did the need for more time to design more magazines. Rachel began helping with the design of custom business lookbooks, a new service she added to her wedding magazine line-up in early 2016. Rachel's contribution has since grown from outsourced design work to work wife/boss babe assistant as the two cultivate a rich, flourishing brand that delivers a wider variety of bespoke products for weddings and more!
We're a two-woman team dedicated to creating something beautiful for you to cherish. We've been in your shoes, planning a wedding, and we know just how to make your wedding a little "extra".

5 Signs That You Should Upgrade to a New Ecommerce Platform
Multi-million dollar businesses depend on the successful operation of the right ecommerce platform. Yet, many companies have inadequate systems and recognize those systems' impact on their daily operations. Given ecommerce's steady growth, it's increasingly necessary to upgrade to an ecommerce platform so that you can bypass labor-intensive processes.
Related: The 6 Best Ecommerce Platforms for Small Businesses
Moreover, never-ending integration issues can easily consume your valuable time and resources.
So, at what point do you compromise on updating your current systems simply because the cost of running and operating them has become so high?
Here are five revealing signs that indicate it's now time to reevaluate your current ecommerce situation and upgrade to one that will support your growing ecommerce business.
1. Annoying integration issues
Let's assume your team is spending an inordinate amount of time interpreting and reformatting data from a number of systems and sources. Add to that the manual intensive labor team members are investing, adding and updating new products or combining various spreadsheets together to form the right report for marketing or accounting.
The result? These issues add up to a sure telltale sign that your ecommerce platform is depending on too many systems to satisfy a large range of operations. An integrated ecommerce mobile platform, instead, caters to all necessary daily operations, which, in the end, will offer you peace of mind about resources needed to automate your customer-service systems.
2. Difficult manual process that exhaust precious time and resources
If you're constantly fighting to make room for more higher-end projects, consider this: Your current ecommerce platform is still heavily dependent on manual processes to complete simple transactions.
An integrated system should ideally automate the shipping and tracking processes in a way that simplifies the time elapsed from when the customer first puts in the order to the point the product is shipped and delivered. The integration of marketing promotional coupons, as exemplified in the popular Amazon Promo Code, should also be seamless.
In fact, a viable ecommerce platform will automate inventory feeds from your warehouse and your drop-ship vendors; implement software to synchronize and track your inventory along with your orders; and, finally, track profits and losses with an effective accounting system.
Related: 25 Ecommerce Conversion Hacks to Make Your Website Profitable (Infographic)
All of these systems must generate accurate data and business intelligence, so it's imperative to integrate the right ecommerce platform.
At the end of the day, you'll want a platform that will expedite customer service to cater to the growing trend of increased mobile use.
3. Outdated systems that don't allow for growth and expansion
As your company grows, and you start building momentum, it becomes time to start making key decisions based on patterns of development. Growth for ecommerce means acquiring new employees, developing a new product line and expanding into new niches and markets.
This new growth and expansion requires a more robust and expansive ecommerce platform.
Your new employees will now need access to higher-end data systems, to run daily operations to analyze web analytics and increase conversions without the stress and hassle of calling on technical support each time a problem arises.
The right ecommerce platform and shopping cart system will satisfy customer demand without the hassle of buying or integrating software on a regular basis. A high-quality ecommerce platform will allow you to start small with the right systems without having to figure out each code or customization.
4. Endless reporting headaches
Have you been consumed with a growing number of daily reporting headaches from data analysis to software running checks? If your company is rapidly growing, you will need timely access to business intelligence and accurate information. This will help you understand how your ecommerce solution is supporting the growth in sales and profit margins, and how to convert your website visitors into buyers.
When you do not have the accurate information needed to generate a full report, you also put your business or company in a potential at-risk financial situation.
Disconnected procedures and processes
Ecommerce growth requires ongoing support from business procedures and processes, including marketing, sales and service, as well as predictive click-fraud analytics. The majority of integrated apps you might choose will include email marketing, CRM and a help desk that often comes standard out-of-the-box with enterprise ecommerce solutions.
Additionally, consider partnering with Quickbooks, an ERP system like SAP and Netsuite, which can support additional procedures and processes.

If any of these headaches sound even in the least bit familiar, consider a more integrated ecommerce solution. It will support you as your business grows.

Protective Effects of Exercise on Dementia and Cognitive Decline
Protective Effects of Exercise on the Brain
As we know, we are living in an aging world. The Population Reference Bureau predicts that the number of Americans ages 65 or older is projected to double from almost 50 million to nearly 100 million in the next 40 years and this group will make up 24% of the total population of the United States at that time. As advancing age is associated with the development of dementia, these increases will bring challenges to patients, families and our health care system. As we have discussed before, exercise or physical activity is an important intervention in the prevention and treatment plans related to cognitive change. Addressing this issue, a recent article from the University of Calgary reviewed the protective effects of exercise on cognition and brain health.
In their article, Tyndall et al note that post maturation aging is accompanied by multiple adverse changes that contribute to cognitive decline. These include changes in biomarkers such as an increase in low-grade inflammation, increase in oxidative stress and a decrease in growth factors, such as growth hormone and neurotropic factors. Other changes include both psychological, mood changes, and physiological, such as a decrease in fitness and cerebrovascular function. Evidence suggests that physiologic changes, such as the decrease in cerebral blood flow, leads to hypoperfusion. Cerebral hypoperfusion is strongly linked to increased risk of cognitive dysfunction and dementia. In addition to these factors, lifestyle choices such as smoking, excessive alcohol use and poor diet contribute to overall brain health.
The beauty of our human design is that exercise or physical activity directly addresses these areas of change with aging. Exercise has been shown to decrease inflammation and oxidative stress while modulating neurotrophic factors. Related to psychological factors, multiple studies have shown improvement in mood, enhanced sleep and improvement in depression with exercise. During exercise, there is evidence of increased cerebral blood flow acutely and with chronic exercise, there is an improvement in hippocampal volume. When looking at cognition in older adults, studies show a direct relationship between cognitive abilities and higher VO2max. Emphasizing the importance of being a lifelong exerciser, there is interesting evidence that lower levels of cardiorespiratory fitness in early adulthood are related to a higher chance of cognitive impairment and dementia risk later in life.
Again, encouraging increased physical activity in everyone is an essential part of our roles as medical providers. We should encourage everyone to have an active day.

Subscribe To Forget Tyrion Lannister, A Crazy Old Dude Requested A Trial By Combat Back In '02 Updates
I've already subscribed
If you're not caught up on Game Of Thrones, you should probably know this article contains minor spoilers. More importantly, it represents an activity that's not catching up on Game Of Thrones. So, get your head out of your ass, fire up HBO Go and get to work getting caught up. Seriously, last chance this article contains minor spoilers. Good? Great. Then let's go.
Remember the end of this week's Game Of Thrones episode in which Tyrion Lannister demanded a trial by combat? If you saw it, I'm sure you remember it because it was quite possibly one of the most badass things ever to happen on television. Well, it turns out that same scene actually unfolded in real life in a court room in Europe back in 2002. 60-year-old Leon Humphreys, an out of work auto mechanic, was hauled in for refusing to pay a small fine for not telling the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency that he was no longer using his Suzuki motorcycle. The judge likely assumed he would pay the increased fine and court costs when he showed up, but instead, he demanded a trial by combat.
According to The Telegraph, Humphreys cited European Human Rights Legislations to argue he was within his rights to fight a DVLA clerk with "samurai swords, Ghurka knives or heavy hammers". Apparently, he saw it as the only "reasonable" way to settle a disagreement like this and was more than willing to let the bureau pick any of the bureau's employees. Here's a portion of his exact quote…
"I (am) willing to fight a champion put up by the DVLA, but it would (be) a fight to the death."
His offer was, of course, refused. He was ordered to five times the amount of the original fine or about $300. No doubt he didn't find the court's decision to be the most honorable thing in the world, but since this happened twelve years ago and no one in the local area has written any follow-up stories, it's probably safe to assume he eventually paid the damn money and moved on.
For those who don't know, a trial by combat was a way people solved differences in Europe throughout the Middle Ages. The accused would either fight himself or appoint a champion, and it was widely assumed God or fate or whoever wouldn't allow a guilty person to claim victory. The practice slowly died out in the 1500s because some more cautious types weren't comfortable with citizens hacking off each other's limbs over missing chickens.
Pop Blend's sincerest well-wishes go out to Leon Humphreys, wherever he might be these days. He would be 72-years-old, but something tells me he would still be willing to defend his family's honor or his property with "heavy hammers" if it ever came to that.

My new desktop computer came with Windows 7 (64 bit) Home Premium installed.
There is no hibernate option. It has:
- Restart
- Standby
- Switch User
- Lock
- Sleep.
Using the power options, I tried changing the sleep button to hibernate function, but no luck.
I have the same OS on a different desktop, but 32 bit, and it has the hibernate function.
The computer is only 4 days old, so I didn't change anything.

Can a game help us fall in love? You'd be shocked by the results people are getting by playing The Love Game. Initially designed to help people fall in love, it is also a pretty good way to get to know someone on an intimate level that would normally take years to do. Turn your clumsy, exhausting conversation into a life-changing discussion. Get the other person you're playing with to start to fall in love with you, deeper & faster. Find out on the off chance that somebody is or isn't your perfect partner. With this game you can even fall deeper in love with your current partner in ways that you never even imagined.
The idea started out as an app which had an enormous amount of popularity. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg even downloaded the App! But let's be frank with ourselves, how much of an emotional connection can an app really provide for two people looking to get to know each other better? Only so much. So the creator of the game, Anthony David Adams, put the best 36 questions you could possibly ask onto cards and The Love Game officially started.
The trick to the game is of course how the questions are structured. Couples are forced to answer questions they normally wouldn't feel comfortable answering, thus becoming more vulnerable. Vulnerability allows individuals to open up, greatly increasing the chances of falling in love. The Love Game Is the perfect catalyst. Need more proof. How about this, the first two people ever to test the game out were co-workers and guess where they are today? They're married and claim "they have the most intimate relationship you can ask for."
Don't be alarmed if you think the game isn't for you. It has been tested by a variety of couples all in different stages of their relationships. Whether its the first date, or you're just friends looking to know each other better, or maybe you've been in a relationship and you're just stuck in a rut, The Love Game can only help.

My heart breaks a little knowing that New York Fashion Week is over, but it picks right back up when I remember we still have London, Milan, and Paris to go! As much as I adore fawning over the creativity that goes into creating the looks that make it down the runway, I've always felt that street style is a bit more authentic. I love seeing people interpret trends in different ways, and observing how they make it work into their own aesthetic. Runway has a tendency to feel a bit distant from the average consumer, but seeing variations of extravagant runway looks on "regular" people makes the styles feel more within reach.

It's Christmas, it's a time of wild excess and fun, and we are not ones to put a dampener on fun, but we thought about how we could make this Christmas as free of plastic waste as possible, whilst at the same time documenting the stuff that turns up that we have zero control over, so this is my family's plastic Christmas.
The first bit of Christmas that has arrived are two presents for my son, from his grandparents, now the presents themselves are actually pretty good, a wooden farmyard and pure wool jumper.
First up the farmyard is made from certified sound wood etc, it's flat packed and inside the box is wrapped in bubble wrap. So I'd say you could have put that in a slightly bigger cardboard box and sent as is, but no, it came in a huge box with these plastic airbags – altogether somewhat over the top, so there is a load of plastic which wasn't really needed.
Secondly, the jumper came in a standard plastic postage bag which is made by D2W, now the bag can be recycled, but as you may know D2W make biodegradable plastic bags. Now D2W and their lovely water drop logo is a bit of a greenwash in my opinion; yes they breakdown quicker than normal bags, but they just end up leaking tiny particles into the environment a lot quicker than normal bags. It's a very dodgy area and some would say it discourages recycling. Then there is an item bag inside, which doesn't appear to be recyclable, and then another piece of plastic within that which is recyclable. That is a lot of plastic for one jumper, but as we've talked about before, plastic protects clothing better than anything else at the moment, and the amount of returns of damaged items of clothing from online sales is huge, so the key here is to make sure it is all recycled.
This series isn't designed to be some preaching rubbish about how great we are, just an honest look at unavoidable and avoidable plastic at a time when it is a little bit mental.

Juventus open closed stands to children
Serie A officials have given Juventus permission to open stands closed for two games after the club's fans were found guilty of "chants of a geographically discriminatory nature" so thousands of children can watch the Dec. 1 game against Udinese.
• Juve stands to be closed
• Chief condemns chants
The Serie A leaders were ordered to close both the Curva Sud and the Curva Nord after repeated chants in recent league matches.
Persistent discriminatory chanting -- much of it done ironically as a protest against the controversial rule -- during the 3-0 win over Napoli led to a suspended sentence being activated.
The areas of the ground that usually accommodate the club's most fanatical supporters will instead be opened up to 6,400 children from local schools and football clubs, with the game's kick-off brought forward from 20.45 to 18.30.
"It is going to be a special Sunday and, in its own way, a historic one when Juventus play Udinese," the club's official website said.
"The Juventus Stadium will welcome 6,400 children from elementary and secondary schools, and football schools and academies."
As part of the initiative, educational activities intended to teach children fairness and the correct way to support a club will be organised. Talks aimed at eliminating territorial and racial discrimination will also be held.
Tickets will be distributed free of charge to schools who make a request over the coming days and children from football schools and academies will be accommodated in the Curva Sud, with elementary and secondary school pupils taking their place at the other end of the stadium.

Psychologist, a sometime costume designer, Seattle living, happy camper.
The photo tour was FABULOUS from so many different perspectives. Francois, our instructor/guide, was charming and he taught me more about my camera in 3 hours than I'd learned in years of shooting photographs. I recently had a 2-hour private tutorial on using my camera, but the information didn't translate to better use of my camera.
Francois, on the other hand, a former professional photographer, had just exactly the right way of explaining things & he was also excited for me when I captured a great shot. I'd take another tutorial with Francios in a New York second.
Also, I had never seen so much of Central Park & that was delightful. Plus, Francios seemed to know all the great places for making our art. Loved every moment.
Deb is a guest as you wish to have more... friendly before and during the tour!

Family and Community Support Services
What is FCSS?
FCSS is the abbreviation for Family and Community Support Services. It is a program offered by The Province of Alberta Ministry of Community and Social Services to local municipalities and Metis settlements. Involvement by the municipality is voluntary.
If the municipality chooses to be involved, then FCSS provincial funding (80 per cent) must be matched with local tax dollars (20 per cent). This combined funding is then used to support preventive social initiatives, program, and services that are shown to enhance the social well-being of individuals, families, and/or the community.
Each municipality has the autonomy to determine the FCSS process at the local level. For that reason, FCSS can look vastly different from one municipality to another.
Red Deer & District FCSS
In this region, Red Deer & District FCSS is structured in a regional partnership of six municipalities which are represented at the FCSS Board as follows:
- City of Red Deer Municipal Council Members (2)
- Red Deer County Council Members (2)
- Town of Bowden Municipal Council Member (1)
- Village of Delburne Municipal Council Member (1)
- Village of Elnora Municipal Council Member (1)
- Town of Penhold Municipal Council Member (1)
- Members of the public (residents of Red Deer) (4)
The Red Deer & District FCSS Board meets monthly (excluding January, July and August).
In each partner municipality, FCSS supports a Community Workers and Community Facilitators.
Red Deer & District FCSS Funding Cycle
Red Deer & District FCSS provides operational funding on a three year basis. Allocation of funding for the three year cycle of 2018, 2019, and 2020 has already been determined.
If there is an increase in funding, additional funding opportunities may occur during this time period. If not, then the next FCSS funding call, for Red Deer & District FCSS, will be in January 2020 for funding for 2020, 2021, and 2022. In the meantime, the only remaining FCSS funding available is Agency Capacity Building Grant which has as annual budget of approximately $30,000 per year.
Red Deer & District FCSS Funding Categories
FCSS provides funding to nonprofit agencies, school boards, and partner municipalities to deliver social services, supports, or programs that meet the criteria of the FCSS Act.
Currently, FCSS projects are funded in one of five categories:
- Family
- Children and Youth
- Adults
- Seniors
- Community Development
2018-2020 Red Deer & District Family and Community Support Services Funding Allocation
The Red Deer & District FCSS Board has chosen programs to receive funding for the 2018-2020 funding cycle.
Programs were chosen based on these regional priorities:
- Agencies must be collaborative
- Projects should promote strong social networks
- Projects should promote a holistic approach to well-being
- Projects should promote family counselling
- Projects should be open and flexible to participant needs and access
- Projects should be sustainable, accountable financially and in leadership, early prevention lens, client centred.

About Peachpie Compiler
We have been developing Peachpie compiler since February 2016. The underlying technologies, however, date all the way back to 2005. What was then called Phalanger started out as a university project at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics of the Charles University in Prague.
Phalanger had been developed and maintained for many years, had an extensive user base and several paying clients. It was capable of running entire frameworks or CMS's such as WordPress or Jadu. For a full list of Phalanger references, click here.
However, the development and maintenance of Phalanger slowed down and stopped at PHP 5.6. Several years later, fuelled by the introduction of Microsoft's Roslyn compiler platform, and utilizing the knowledge we obtained from maintaining Phalanger, we decided to revive the concept of a PHP compiler to .NET. We heavily inspired ourselves from Phalanger, but rewrote the compiler's architecture in order to bring it to a modern state. Peachpie compiler is built on top of Roslyn and will support the latest versions WordPress, as well as PHP 7.
Most benchmarks so far have clearly shown that Peachpie is between 10 and 20 times faster than Phalanger.
The Team
[widgets_on_pages id="About us"]
Goals of the Project
We have received many confused inquiries as to what we are trying to achieve with this project. Firstly, we know from experience that there is a plethora of legacy PHP applications out there that would benefit from being compiled to .NET. Some of the largest companies in the world still rely heavily on their apps written many years ago. This legacy code is slowing down their performance and costing the companies scarce financial resources by using unnecessary CPU power on the cloud.
Secondly, we strive to improve the collaboration between PHP and .NET developers within a single project. There is currently a deep cliff between the two camps and the resulting output is difficult to coordinate. Peachpie compiler's both-way interoperability allows PHP and .NET developers to collaborate seamlessly within projects, thereby reducing the unnecessary administrative overhead of glueing the two together at the end.
Finally, we firmly believe that there is an immense value in the world of PHP. It is our conviction that, if given the chance, PHP developers would come up with creative and efficient solutions. Peachpie opens up previously untouched markets for PHP programmers to explore, such as games, cross-platform apps or IoT. We are excited to see what products will spring forth when they will be able to use Peachpie for this purpose.

The Department of Homeland Security's Science and Technology Directorate is looking to blockchain to prevent forgeries in the certificates and licenses issued by Customs and Border Protection, Citizen and Immigration Services and the Transportation Security Administration, DHS said in a recent Other Transaction Solicitation. The agencies' current paper-based issuance processes are often "non-interoperable and are subject to loss, destruction, forgery and counterfeiting," DHS said.
S&T is looking for solutions that address one or more of the following technical topic areas:
The agency wants counter-fraud solutions that address interoperability challenges and enterprise lifecycle management and feature a high degree of usability. They must also be standards based.
"This potential for the development of "walled gardens" or closed technology platforms that do not support common standards for security, privacy, and data exchange would limit the growth and availability of a competitive marketplace of diverse, interoperable solutions," according to the solicitation.
DHS issued the Other Transaction Solicitation through its Silicon Valley Innovation program, which uses a streamlined application and pitch process for startup companies with viable technologies.
S&T will be holding an industry day on Dec. 11 in Menlo Park, Calif. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis with the final deadline of May 23, 2019.

About BGO Casino
Bonus offers are eligible for new players and terms & conditions apply! 18yrs+ Only!
Every once in awhile, an online casino comes along and creates a stir within the industry. For sure, the industry must be having problems trying to figure out what BGO Casino is all about. To begin with, no one has been able to come up with a viable explanation for the casino's name. The website seems a bit unconventional and the hard hitting attitude seems to be a tribute to the hard-nosed British players who are starting to look for alternatives to the brand name sites.
The BGO Casino website was first introduced in 2012 and is owned and operated by BGO ENTERTAINMENT LIMITED. The company's business address is located in Alderney where the company operates under the licensing and regulations provided by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission. For the benefit of its customers located in the U.K., the company also maintains a iGaming license with the U.K. Gambling Commission.
When you visit BGO Casino
It's quite shocking to hit the casino's home landing page and be greeted with the likes of 'Mini-Me' Verne Troyer. Obviously serving as the website's mascot, Troyer isn't afraid to flash all the bling and reveal all the cash BGO Casino has to offer. The really strange thing is this approach works. There's something about the color scheme and the website's unusual format that makes a prospective customer want to sign up and get into action. So much for the traditional online casinos.
As mentioned above, the layout of the website is rather unconventional. The top portion follows normal protocol as a number of the site's bonus promotions are introduced by Troyer in rotation. In the middle of the page sits the game advertising section with a complete index of all of the games found in the website's portfolio. It's not everyday that the player gets the opportunity to see a written list of games, which effectively saves them a lot of time and contemplation regarding what the casino has in store. Just above the business information section at the bottom, there's a nice little section that gives a brief synopsis about the website and its operations. As a package, the website instills plenty of confidence that someone's got their act together in management.
The BGO Website is powered by a combination of Playtech's and Net Entertainment's software platforms. A majority of the games belong to Net Entertainment's platform and the Playtech library with a few games provided by some of the industry's smaller developers like IGT. There's no need to worry about downloading any software as the site is readily available in instant play mode with a standard web browser. Players with mobile devices will be happy to know there's a dedicated mobile app, which will be discussed in greater detail below. Based on industry standards, 128-bit SSL digital encryption technology and firewalls are used to keep the website safe and secure. All casino gaming results are provided by a random number generator that assures everything is fair. There's no information on the website related to the auditing process or certification.
Bonus & Promotions at BGO Casino,
The generosity from BGO Casino starts from the moment new customer registers for an account. By simply doing so, they earn a no deposit bonus of 20 free spins on a designated slot, and that's just for starters. Next up is a lucrative welcome bonus that covers the player's first four deposits as follows:
First deposit – 200% match – up to £100 + 180 free spins (20 spins a day for nine days)
Second deposit – 100% match – up to £500
Third deposit – 100% match – up to £500
Fourth deposit – 100% match – up to £400
That's an amazing total of £1,500, plus spins. The offer also comes with player-friendly wagering requirements of 35x the bonus amount. For live casino enthusiasts, there's even a 100% bonus of up to £50 for popping in and playing a live dealer game for the first time. Other promotions revolve around free bets or spins on designated slots, cash giveaways and the chance to earn loyalty points, which can be used in the loyalty store for more free bets, cash rebates, invitations to VIP events and reload bonuses.
BGO Casino in the Mobile
Good news! BGO Casino has a free mobile app that is compatible with both the iOS (Apple) and Android operating systems. All players have to do is click on the link for the app on their mobile devices and download it in just minutes. The appropriate links are located on the home landing page. If players are using mobile devices that are compatible with other operating systems, they can still access the optimized website using their mobile device and a regular web browser.
Games at BGO Casino
For casino games, the combination of Playtech, IGT and Net Entertainment assures that players will have access to some of the industry's top video slot games. The entire library includes games from the following categories: video slots, video poker, classic slots, instant win scratch cards, live dealer games (Casino Hold'em, Baccarat, Blackjack, Roulette) and table games (3-Card Brag, Baccarat, Blackjack and Roulette).
The portfolio includes great video and audio features, free spin bonuses, interactive bonus features, a large variety of themes and progressive jackpot games like Mega Fortune and the Marvel Mystery Jackpot. Popular slot titles include Spiderman, Blade, Gladiator, Iron Man III, Gonzo's Quest, Jack and the Beanstalk, Marilyn Monroe, Starburst, Rocky, Thor and The Pink Panther.
Software, Currencies and Languages
Software: Bally, BGO Studios (BGO Entertainment), Blue Gem Gaming, Endemol Games, Eyecon, IGT (WagerWorks), Microgaming, NetEnt, NextGen Gaming, Playtech, Quickspin, WMS (Williams Interactive)

Deposit Options: Maestro, MasterCard, Neteller, PayPal, Paysafe Card, Skrill, Visa
Withdrawal Options: Bank Wire Transfer, Citadel, Envoy, iDebit, instaDebit, Neteller, PayPal, Skrill, Ukash, Visa, Visa Electron
Getting Help at BGO Casino
It's unfortunate that the customer service department is only available through email or an online query function, Mon – Sun 8.30am – midnight. Without a live chat or phone option, it's difficult to get answers to important questions in a timely manner. On the plus side, the FAQ section is quite extensive and should be able to answer most relevant questions.
Conclusion: It's always fun and interesting to review an online casino that does things a little bit different. BGO Casino certainly has its pluses and minuses. On the plus side, there's hundreds of excellent casino games and several generous bonus offers, including a no deposit bonus, with lenient terms. On the minus side, customer service needs to have a face. Overall, A rebel site like BGO Casino is a decent alternative to the big name online casino brands.

What would be one good sentence explaining the importance of Neil Alden Armstrong?

There are a variety of ways to approach this. One of the most direct sentences that can be given is that "Neil Armstrong was the first man to set foot on the moon." This is a sentence that is factual. It is a sentence that summarizes the achievement for which Armstrong is most known. In Armstrong's recent passing, this is the sentence that helped to define and craft his legacy. Another sentence that can apply to Armstrong would be that Neil Armstrong provided a sense of vision for an entire generation. The symbolic action of landing on the moon and walking on its surface, according to President Nixon, "taught men how to reach for the stars." There was something powerfully symbolic about Armstrong's actions, something that reflected the capacity for what can be out of what is. Finally, I think that a sentence that can be used to explain the importance of Armstrong's contribution would be the line itself that has been recorded over time as almost iconic:
"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
Certainly, this statement can be a description of Armstrong, himself. Interesting enough, the line might not have been said as it was intended. "Man" and "Mankind" are the same thing. Rather, Armstrong took "one small step for a man" and in doing so, too a "giant leap for mankind." In this, a sentence that can be used is how iconic moments in history might not pay attention to specific detail. The sentence here could be that Armstrong's contributions were iconic enough to allow exact details to be rendered as unimportant in comparison to the magnitude of the moment. In this, history and fame are defined by instants in time, and to capture these is what defines historical consciousness. Armstrong represents this with his moment.
Neil Armstrong was the first person, who dared to go to the outer space. So, he was very brave person isn't it!
He said this sentece - "One step for a man, giant leap for a mankind"

Cannes is one of the most famous cities on the Cote d'Azur, renowned for both its film festival and its enduring pull for the rich and famous. Set at the heart of the French Riviera, Cannes is much more than a millionaire's playground; the romantic harbour and La Croisette Boulevard form the centre of the town, which is lined with designer shops and restaurants.
The A8/E8 skirts along the evocative Cote d'Azur coastline through Nice and then Monaco, making car hire in Cannes particularly agreeable with such wonderful cities in close proximity. Hiring a car in Cannes is available from our branch on the Rue d'Antibes near the City Centre, or Nice Airport.
You'll most likely fly in to Nice Airport if you're visiting Cannes which is just over 30km away. Once in Cannes many tourists head for the cobbled hills of Le Suquet, which is Cannes Old Town. From here you can survey the city from a higher vantage point and get your bearings over La Croisette Boulevard.
If you're hiring a car in Cannes you''d do well to take the short drive into Nice; both for the scenic roads and Nice's place as France's second city. Antibes - a short drive east - is slightly cheaper for tourists, and the enchanting Roquebrune-Cap-Martin are also perfect day trips.

Please note that from 15 Nov to 15 Apr many cities are required by law to restrict the circulation to only vehicles equipped with snow chains or winter tyres. For a summary of the orders, please visit www.poliziadistato.it. To comply with the regulations, in specific locations subject to this requirement, vehicles are equipped with snow chains - the price is included in the rental charges through the cost of "Winterization Fee". At pick-up if you decide to bring your own snow chains or do not intend on driving on the roads subject to this requirement, you may decline the equipment by signing the appropriate release form. This change will be reflected in the rental charges. For more information on the fees, please click here. In all other regions, we recommend that you check before renting if your journey includes one of the roads subject to this requirement and therefore request the snow chains, if necessary.
