If your business operates vehicles in any way (e.g., you drive a company car or rent trucks to haul your products), you probably need auto insurance to address potential liabilities and losses. But what kind of auto insurance do you need?
That depends on your business and who owns the vehicles that you use. In some cases, you'll need Commercial Auto. In others, Hired and Non-Owned Auto Insurance will be the policy to protect your business in case of an accident.
Look at the differences between these policies to see what kind your business may need before you go speeding off into the business world.
Commercial Auto Insurance covers automobiles, trucks, and other vehicles that your business owns. Nearly any vehicle that a small business might use can be covered by this insurance as long as the business owns it and it's used for work purposes. Policies can cover…
Do you drive a company car to meet clients? Does your business own a van to transport equipment? Do you haul dirt or building material in a heavy truck? Then Commercial Auto Insurance is the coverage you'll need.
Hired and Non-Owned Auto Insurance covers liability expenses for accidents involving vehicles that your business uses for work purposes but doesn't own. This includes vehicles that your business rents, as well as your employees' personal vehicles that are used for work errands.
Say your employee is driving his car to drop off a business deposit at the bank. If he gets in an accident, the other driver can sue your business for expenses related to the crash (e.g., medical treatment and vehicle repair damages). HNOA Insurance can cover these costs.
Many companies rent trucks or vans for hauling goods or transporting passengers. If an accident should occur in one of these rented vehicles, HNOA Insurance can cover those liability expenses, too.
Note: HNOA Insurance doesn't cover accidents that occur during commutes. It doesn't cover accidents that happen when an employee runs personal errands during work, either. Lastly, it can't pay for physical damages to the non-owned vehicle.
You can purchase Hired and Non-Owned Auto Insurance as a standalone policy or add it as a "rider" to your General Liability Insurance policy.
If your business owns vehicles but also rents vehicles or uses employee cars for business purposes – say during peak seasons or special events – you might need both auto insurance policies to cover your bases.
If you use your personal vehicle for work, your personal auto insurance policy may not cover you. These policies generally exclude "business driving" from their coverage, so you'd be personally responsible for expenses if you get into an accident while delivering or hauling goods. Check to see what your coverage entails because every personal policy is different.
Fill out an online application to receive free quotes for Commercial Auto or Hired and Non-Owned Auto Insurance. You can also contact an agent to discuss which type of policy best suits your business. The road can be dangerous, so protect your business from the high cost of fender benders and collisions.

I wanted a "Pure Code" State Machine for Unity and I didn't find quite what I wanted. I did find 3 State Machines with features I liked, so I drew from them and added my own features to create what I wanted. The Pure Code approach means little to no reliance on the Unity GUI interface or Unity code and classes like MonoBehaviour.
I implemented the FSM in 2 sample projects. One was based on Dunstan's sample. I committed the FSM including the sample project to GitHub with an Apache 2.0 license:
The second is a Poker game I published here, also with an Apache 2.0 license:
More info about the Finite State Machine I wrote and each of the State Machines I referenced when writing it are below.
- Jackson Dunstan's FSM
- http://jacksondunstan.com/articles/3137
- Encapsulates State behavior into dedicated discrete State classes
- Structured with anticipation of transitional time during which the primary State activity should be disabled while the State is still the active State and the State's Begin or Exit state is executed.
- Downside: built around the expectation that States are responsible for triggering the transitions to the next state. I wanted a FSM that is more of a Controller that orchestrates the behavior of the States, knows which is active and which is next, and the FSM itself can be told to exit the current state and then enter the next state. Dunstan's FSM is geared towards the States themselves controlling the initiation of the change to the next State.
- Jackson Dunstan's Simpler FSM
- http://jacksondunstan.com/articles/3726
- Removes the constraint of using discrete State objects for separate State actions, however still permits it when appropriate.
- Demonstrates the use of a single Execute method in which the user can do any Begin/Execute/Exit/Etc. activities through a variety of Iterator approaches that iterate until they are finished (or are told to stop) and then the body of the Execute method resumes.
- StateKit from Prime31
- https://github.com/prime31/StateKit
- Also encapsulates State behavior in State classes.
- Injects data from the State Machine into each of to the States. a) Injects a reference to the State Machine for callback communication from State-to-State Machine, and b) Injects a context object on which the State should operate. Prime31 uses the Generic T so the context could be anything (MonoBehavior, Custom Class, etc.).
- The FSM manages the States and initiates transitions from a Controller-like perspective (see downside listed in FSM 1 above).
- Uses the Type of the State classes for saving a dictionary of States that have been added to the FSM.
- Uses a manually-implemented update method for ticking the FSM. The FSM must have its update method called every frame, and it relays the call to the active State's update method.
Here are the features of this FSM, cobbled together from features in the above FSMs as well as some additional features.
- Encapsulates State activity in dedicated discrete State classes.
- Injects data from the State Machine into each of to the States for callbacks to the FSM and reference to a context object to act upon.
- Anticipates transitional behavior.
- Uses a single Execute method for all Iterator activity. The BeginExit method allows the FSM to initiate the State's exit or the State itself may trigger the exit when its internal processes are finished.
- Each State is responsible for its own transitions. A shared transition can be used but is not required. Any IEnumerable method in any class may be called from a State to implement something like a shared Transition class.
- Use of a BaseState class instead of an Interface or Abstract Class so that it's easy to ensure that all States have the necessary properties (like a reference to the FSM). StateKit handles similar concerns via manual injection of important info as a call to the State's setMachineAndContext method (which is enforced by its Abstract SKState class) as part of the FSM's addState method.
- Uses the Type of the State Classes for saving a dictionary of States that have been added to the FSM.
- No Enter state. A State may implement a transition when it starts as the first part of the Execute method.
- Manual call to FSM when State finishes Exiting. Although Loose Coupling is worthwhile in many architectural decisions, StateMachines seem like a good place for some tight coupling.
- No transitions as separate classes are required. States handle their own transitions as part of the Execute method.
- When doing a similar transition in multiple frames, we may see repetition of similar transition code in each State. This could be avoided by optionally putting the transition content in a separate class. This might look similar to the template Transition class used in Dunstan's sample.

Installing the Vapor Barrier for the Bathroom Shower
With all of the plumbing in and the rough approval complete I set about installing a vapor barrier for the bathroom shower surround. I actually did this back in September before my crazy period of travel this fall, but I didn't have time to organize the photos and write about it until now.
Although the porcelain subway tiles that I will tiling the shower surround with are waterproof the grout and the cement backer board is not so it is important to protect the wood studs with a vapor barrier. I choose to use clear 6 mil polyethylene behind my cement backer board for my vapor barrier.
There are other ways to waterproof the shower, like using RedGard or Kerdi waterproofing membrane, but the important thing is that you should only install one vapor barrier (i.e. do not install sheeting behind the cement backer board and then RedGard over the cement backer board) so that moisture won't get trapped between the barriers.
Because this is a barrier against moisture throughout the installation process I used the least amount of staples needed to keep the sheeting in place in order to minimize staple holes in the sheeting.
I started by lining the soap/shampoo nook in the shower. I cut a piece that was larger than the nook and used my stapler to tack it to the back of the nook. I folded the corners to lie flat and then trimmed off the excess sheeting around the nook.
Next I cut a single continuous piece of sheeting that would wrap around my whole shower with some excess at the top and bottom. I cut tight holes around the plumbing and secured it to the walls with a few more staples.
To finish the nook area I trimmed out a rectangle a few inches smaller than the nook out of the sheeting. I cut a diagonal slit at each corner and the folded the excess into the nook and stapled it down.
As a last step I trimmed the excess sheeting off of the top and bottom of the shower surround. To make sure that any water trapped by the vapor barrier would drain into the tub I lifted up the bottom of the sheeting, applied clear waterproof silicone caulk to the lip of the tub and then pressed the sheeting into the caulk making a nice water tight seal. I also added a dab of the silicone caulk over each of my staple holes and to seal where the two sheets met in the nook for good measure.
When I finished installing the sheeting Frank peeked into the bathroom to see what I had been up to and said it looked like something from the set of the TV show Dexter. Yes, it does look a little scary right now but I can already imagine it covered with beautiful subway tile. Next up is installing the cement backer board (the photo below aready has the first piece installed in the nook with one of my subway tiles propped up) and then the tiling fun will begin!

Yay Luke was waiting for me 45/750
I don't normally collect these but I was wondering if ACME has made a Lando Character Key? I did a quick skim of the thread and didnt see one, but I thought I'd double check.
Nope, Lando has not been done. ACME: Character Key Thread IndexQuote from: Hemish on July 16, 2009, 02:34 AMYay Luke was waiting for me 45/750Very nice Hemish, a good low number.

Angelus Annual Lenten Concert
This event occurred in the past
Date and Time
- Saturday, February 20, 2016 from 7:00 p.m. to 8:45 p.m.
Founders Chapel
Annual Angelus Sacred Music Concert for Lent
We will perform three exquisite sacred Cantatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, bringing together a tightly-knit ensemble of vocal soloists and the Bay Area's Jubilate period-instrument orchestra featuring Baroque strings, oboe, oboe d'amore, taille, caccia, flute, recorder, bassoon, organ and harpsichord. Once again, I will direct as well as moderate the concert with commentary on the music.
While Cantatas 146, 68, and 96 reflect on the subjects of Lent, on sorrow, suffering, and death, they ultimately come to ask: "Death, where is thou sting?" For Bach, the Passion of Christ is the pathway to Easter's Redemption. During the course of each cantata, the focus shifts away from the sorrows of the human condition to the sublime promise of faith.
You are invited to join us for some of Bach's most moving, both somber and jubilant, fabulous musical inventions for voices and instruments.

Jacob Perry's Nissan 240SX
January 30th, 2017
By Micheal Turner
1995 Nissan 240SX
I have been watching the progress of Jacob and Annika's car for the last couple years and when I saw the new look for 2017 I knew I had to get it in front of my lens. The car did a complete 180 from last year and as you can see, it paid off.
What first got you into modifying cars?
Hot Wheels and Video Games.
How long have you owned your 240SX?
3.5 years
What made you choose the 240SX over other cars?
My first car was a white 1995 240SX. The car got totaled so when this one came up for sale, I wanted to relive my past.
What has been the inspiration behind this build?
I wanted to build a car that could do everything from drag race, drift, auto-x, daily drive and participate in car shows.
What has been the most fun part of this build?
Doing all the work ourselves and being able to enjoy the car.
What has been the worst part of this build so far?
Half of the car was stolen at one point so all those missing parts needed to be replaced.
Whats your favorite modification you have done to the car?
The custom Speedhut gauges and cluster.
Do you have any more plans for the car?
Eventually I want to add a Magnuson supercharger and some more suspension upgrades.
Do you have anyone you want to thank?
ICT Billet, Zestino, Tyres USA, FN1, and World-Wide LS Owners.

Troubles in Portugal and Spain aren't keeping the euro down, but anemic retail sales are doing a number on the British pound — it's time for your FX Fix.
The euro sagged after Portugal's prime minister resigned and Moody's downgraded a bunch of Spanish banks, but that was just a buying opportunity for some sovereign investors. [Reuters]
Apparently that wasn't a one-time deal. A veteran FX expert told CNBC that Middle Eastern and Asian sovereigns have been regularly buying the euro on dips.[CNBC]
The yen is beginning to stabilize, with volatility measures finally settling down almost two weeks after Japan's crisis began. [forexyard.com]
Not so much the British pound, which is weaker after a report of anemic retail sales. [dailyfx.com]
The Australian and New Zealand dollars are riding commodity prices higher after weakness from Japan's crisis. [markets247]

Our small-group ministries are on the front lines of serving the body of Christ. No other ministry in the church consistently serves such a heterogeneous audience. Needy people and well-resourced people; new believers and veterans in the faith; people of all ages, backgrounds, and demographics are all part of our audience. How can one ministry serve such a widely disparate flock?
"With man this is impossible, but not with God. All things are possible with God" (Mark 10:27). We take encouragement from knowing that all things are possible with God, but the first part of Jesus' response is just as important. With man alone, effective, life-changing ministry is impossible. We might see a few victories here and there, but truly God-honoring service won't happen by merely human effort.
All the efforts we put into our small-group ministries—planning, recruiting, communicating, discipling—will have little life-changing impact if carried out in our own strength, regardless of our level of talent or giftedness. These efforts are needed, but they're not enough. It's crucial that we support our ministries with prayer.
Pray for Your Ministry
"Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans" (Proverbs 16:3). Begin by committing the ministry itself to God in prayer. We plan and provide direction, but much of what happens in the small-group ministry is beyond our control. Boundaries and resourcing for the ministry are often set by church leadership. The pool of available, willing, and capable small-group leaders fluctuates over time. The list of people interested in participating in small groups ebbs and flows.
One way to begin praying for your ministry is to seek God's leading in your own life. Here are a few suggestions for prayer:
- Follow Solomon's example and ask God for wisdom to lead the ministry effectively (1 Kings 3:5-15; see James 1:5)
- Ask God to grant you humility and a servant's heart (Philippians 2:3-4)
- Pray for a deep, abiding connectedness with Jesus, the Vine (John 15:1-8)
Praying for our ministry means recognizing that the ministry is in God's hands, not ours. This can be very freeing. As we realize that the ministry belongs to God, we're able to place the results—numerical growth, discipleship, etc.—in his hands.
The Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13) is a great place to start praying for your ministry. To pray this prayer most effectively, we need to ask ourselves a few questions:
- What would it look like for God's name to be honored in my ministry?
- If his kingdom were truly to come in and through my ministry, what difference would that make in the group members' lives, in the ministry as a whole, and in my church?
- What would God's will be for my groups, group leaders, and members?
- What sorts of temptation and evil might impact my ministry?
For more on using the Lord's Prayer to pray for your ministry, see Kneeling with Giants.
Pray for Your Small-Group Leaders
Small group leadership can be rewarding and encouraging, bearing obvious fruit in and through the lives of the small-group members. It can also be lonely and taxing. As point people, it's difficult for us to keep on top of every group, knowing exactly what each leader needs. But there is One who has the very hairs of their heads numbered, and He knows what our leaders need today, and what they will face in the near future. The most effective support we can give our leaders is to pray for them.
All of the things you've prayed for yourself (see above) can also be prayed for your leaders. Here are a few additional suggestions:

John Wall has become the (scowling) face of D.C. sports
John Wall has always been viral, from that infamous image of his distraught face on the bench, to his smiling on-court shimmy, to that whole pregame dancing thing.
The best kind of sports viral, though, is the kind linked to winning. Think Michael Phelps, stewing in nuclear silence behind Chad le Clos at the Rio Olympics. The fury in Phelps's scowl toward the shadowboxing South African was unforgettable. Match it with his subsequent gold medal in the 200-meter butterfly, and that image became part of the Phelps aura.
Thursday night, the former University of Kentucky star scowled and danced and kept the gif-makers engaged throughout Washington's blowout win over the Boston Celtics, which got Washington back into this second-round series. Then, as luck would have it, he met with Phelps in the team's training room. They've known each other for years, having met when Phelps was at the peak of his powers and Wall was still trying to find his professional legs. As Phelps left the locker room with a Wall jersey over his shoulder, he thought back to that conversation.
"I think the coolest thing for me is watching him come into his own, you know, watching him sort of take over the leadership role," Phelps said late Thursday night. "It's just special. He gets it, and he's finally starting to realize a bunch of stuff, and it really shows. And that's why they've been able to do what they've done this year and make this run. You just recognize great things, and he's doing it."
And those viral scowls, which have hints of a pre-race Phelps?
"He's passionate; that's what it is," the most decorated Olympian ever said. "He's playing with passion, and it's always good to see an athlete play with passion. I mean, I always get fired up when you see greatness."
Wall's game is irrepressibly great; you don't really need me or Phelps to tell you that. Here are the players who've ever averaged better than 26 points and 10 assists in a playoff run: Russell Westbrook, Allen Iverson, John Stockton and Isiah Thomas (the first one). Wall, now averaging 29 points and 11 assists this postseason, is on the verge of joining that group. He's the first player in NBA history to have nine straight playoff games in one season with at least 20 points and 7 assists, according to Elias Sports. He was responsible for 19 points during Thursday night's electric first quarter, scoring eight and assisting on 11 more. (The Celtics finished the quarter with 17.)
"When he came out, it seemed like he was just engaged, like 'I'm about to just straight put on a demonstration,'" said Caron Butler, the emotional engine from a different Wizards era, who was at Verizon Center on Thursday night. "When you see a dude determined like that off the top, he sets the stage and the energy and the momentum of the whole team. They follow his lead. He's the head of the snake. He's about that life."
And Wall has gradually developed a similar relationship with the home fans. They follow his lead, too, and when he stalks the baseline after forcing the visitors to take a timeout, an ovation is just about inevitable. I'm not sure there's another active D.C. athlete who plays off the crowd as well as Wall does — who deliberately demands a reaction, who can scowl 18,000 people into a roar. That's why Eric Bickel of the Junkies keeps saying that Wall is the most embraceable of the current crop of Washington stars.
"He seems to relish being kind of the face of D.C., and I just love that," Bickel said on Friday. "He wears his emotions on his sleeve; he has that chip on his shoulder that we as a [fanbase] have. He just seems to perfectly embody and embrace being the face of D.C., and I love it."
I know, I know. Cranky older columnists, plus local podcast hosts, would rather Wall leads his team past the second round before we build him a mean-mugging statue or write 1,000 words about his scowls. It's a fair point. Wall could have led the Wizards past the top-seeded Pacers in 2014 but fell short. He could have led the Wizards past the top-seeded Hawks in 2015 but fell short. Washington has enough talent to beat the top-seeded Celtics this year, and maybe we should wait for him to make that next step before gushing about embraceability.
Still, he's playing like a superstar and acting like an excited college kid, and that combination can turn some emotional dials. People rally around the passion, the fire and yes, the GIFs. Like all that flexing after he scores an and-one, which Wall explained with four words: "Too strong, too fast."
"The whole bench gets hyped; we flex right with him," little-used reserve Sheldon Mac said. " I feel like I'm playing, I feel like I got an and-one. It just feeds off to the rest of the guys."
Or the Jordan shrug, which Wall brought out against Atlanta during the first round.
"Jordan started it, but it ain't his," Wall said, when asked about the appropriation. "It was just like, I've got everything going right now. So it was like, I amaze myself at times on the court."
Or the most classic Wall GIF, when he clenches his face into a mean mug that could melt cotton candy.
"That's his — excuse my language — that's his 'You can't eff with me' face," Bradley Beal explained. "That's his mentality, that's his knack, that's his edge. You know when he has that face, it's go time. … I just know whenever he has that face, it's gonna be ugly."
Wall's game is overflowing with self-assurance right now, so the emotion pours out alongside. He's playing with more confidence than he ever has, and he's acting the part as well. He talked to his coaches Thursday morning about Washington's need to move the ball more quickly on offense to make Isaiah Thomas work on both ends of the floor; that's the kind of thing someone in his position can and should do. The confidence, he recently said, is because "this season, it's fully my team."
His game has matured, and so has his identity; "just from an athlete to another athlete, it's just a true treat to watch somebody come into their own," as Phelps put it. So bring on the GIFs.
"That's part of his persona; that's part of his personality," said Garrett Temple, another former teammate who was in the building Thursday night. "That's what makes him John Wall."

The government has revealed a radical plan to construct a standby city for Tokyo. The Integreated Resort, Tourism, Business and "Backup City", known as IRTBBC, will provide backup to the metropolis in an event of an immobilizing earthquake.
IRTBBC will incorporate all vital functions of government, with duplicate facilities for parliament and ministries. Office complexes, resort facilities, casinos, parks, and the tallest tower in the world at 652 meters, will employ 50,000 IRTBBC residents and over 150,000 workers from the nearby city of Osaka. The government is considering the existing 1236 acre site of the Itami Airport, located approximately 300 miles west of Tokyo.
The idea summed up by ruling Democratic Party member, Hajime Ishii, is to have a backup generator for the functions of the nation.

Well, I did not get a white Christmas. But New Years is starting to look jam packed with fresh white powder! We sure are getting snowed in tonight. I'm glad we have these two weeks to share with our wonderful friends and families! We have been packing in the fun.
To start out, we surprised our families coming up early. The timing on that was awesome because it meant we had more time with them. We also were able to party with my roommates. (Yes, I am aware that I am married and have only one roommate now, but these ladies will always be called my roommates.)
Sorry not the best picture of Jason, but the point was about the girls and we're all smiling. Still love them!
We went to Zoo lights this year with Michael's fam. Our blood must be thinner because it was COLD! Thank heavens for two scarfs, a million shirts and a coat borrowed from Katie because Michael and I both didn't bring coats! Genius!
We met Dasher before his busy night.
I don't think antlers suit me.
I am a fan of Zoo lights. They did a good job with the blend of tree lights and lighted decorations. We saw some animals and they had hot chocolate and conveniently placed heaters. Highly recommended!
Our next adventures left Veronica looking like this:
I'm very impressed with the storing capabilities. You are looking at one bin of ski clothes, five pairs of skis and poles, two snowboards, two pairs of snowboarding boots, six pairs of ski boots, and a partridge in a pear tree. This car is definitely paying off.
We had an amazing day on the slopes. I have really missed my Wasatch mountains. Look how pretty!
There is more where that came from-

Excessive alcohol consumption is a major public health problem worldwide. Although drinking habits are known to be inherited, few genes have been identified that are robustly linked to alcohol drinking. We conducted a genome-wide association metaanalysis and replication study among > 105,000 individuals of European ancestry and identified β-Klotho (KLB) as a locus associated with alcohol consumption (rs11940694; P = 9.2 × 10-12). β-Klotho is an obligate coreceptor for the hormone FGF21, which is secreted from the liver and implicated in macronutrient preference in humans. We show that brain-specific β-Klotho KO mice have an increased alcohol preference and that FGF21 inhibits alcohol drinking by acting on the brain. These data suggest that a liver-brain endocrine axis may play an important role in the regulation of alcohol drinking behavior and provide a unique pharmacologic target for reducing alcohol consumption.

Dog Behavior Expert and Certified Professional Trainer/Instructor Joe Ardis teams up with best-selling investigative author Donna Howell to sound the alarm on shocking practices in the commercial pet food industry. Within these pages, readers are shown the scandalous production practices of leading commercial pet food manufacturers who are knowingly passing off harmful, detestable, and poisonous "foods" as vitamin-rich, healthy, nutritious, complete, and balanced meals for animals across the states.
Read why Thomas R. Horn, best-selling author, was shocked by "the measure to which the industry has knowingly participated in providing the most nutritionally void, dangerous 'foods' to pet owners—and the lengths at which they will travel to keep their detestable food practices a secret while masquerading their products as 'healthy' with clever advertising schemes and suspect endorsements."

Are there no politicians left with any integrity?
There seem to be different rules for politicians and for others. No one gets accused more often of lying, cheating, and corruption, than politicians. They can, it seems, get away with bending the truth whereas business leaders would not be able to get away with displaying the same (lack of) integrity.
This was glaringly obvious during the recent Brexit campaign. Politicians supporting the Leave campaign stated that the UK sends £350 million a week to Brussels as EU contributions, which could (if we left the EU) be spent on the NHS instead. This, and similar claims, created the impression that staying in the EU was too costly, and that the funds saved could be better spent in UK. Within hours of the Leave camp winning the vote, this statement has been shown to be untrue - not only is the figure of £350 million a week wrong, but so is the fact that it would be spent on the NHS. Politicians have been lining up to decry this claim – even Nigel Farage back tracked from it. Yet, having made these outrageous statements, none of these politicians is held to account, and the public does not seem surprised.
Contrast this to a professional advisor, who is expected to act with integrity. If a professional is found to have lied or cheated, he or she is open to sanctions by their professional body, and could be disciplined, with the prospect of not being able to continue to practice in their field.
Take this one step further and apply it to an expert witness. The expert must comply with the professional standards of his or her professional body, be it accountancy, engineering or medicine. The expert also has to comply with Civil Procedure Rules (In England & Wales), and related Practice Directions. These set out detailed rules and obligations with which the expert must comply. One of the main obligations is that of impartiality, in that the duty of the expert is to the Court and this duty transcends the duty to clients. The experts are open to public sanction by a Judge if they do not comply. It is therefore true that an expert is only as good as their last case.
Do we need stricter rules for politicians to hold them to account, or simply better politicians? Answers on the back of a politician's promissory note please!

It was the perfect weekend with the exception of being woken up at 630AM by the hotel fire alarm on our first morning there. No one argued with each other, we had coffee by the pool, my mom did shots of tequila (okay, they were sipped), and we took in a Dodgers game and enjoyed the Friday night fireworks show. Her cousin even invited my sis and I back and said we could stay there if we decided not to do a tropical vacation in October. It's tempting since he did say he'd take us dirt bike riding.

Snoop Lion aka Snoop Dogg heads up new documentary about Jamaican culture
The film will accompany the rapper's forthcoming 'Reincarnated' reggae album
Snoop Dogg's brand new reggae persona, Snoop Lion, is set to head up a new documentary.
Following the artist's recent journey to Jamaica, Vice will be releasing a feature-length film and a photobook, as well as the 'Reincarnated' album, produced by Diplo/Major Lazer.
The documentary, Reincarnated, shares a name with the forthcoming Snoop Lion reggae album, and features never-before-seen images of Rastafarian and Jamaican culture. It will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 7. Photographer Willie T accompanied Snoop on the trip and will release a coffee table book of his images.
Snoop Lion was the name given to the rapper by a Rastafarian priest upon his arrival to the island – it comes from the Lion on the Imperial Ethiopian flag, which is highly important to Rastafarians as it is a symbol of former Ethiopian Emperor Halie Selassie.
Of his trip to Jamaica, Snoop said at a recent New York press conference, that he believes he is the reincarnation of singer Bob Marley. He added: "For this project, I had no intention of making a reggae album, but the spirit called me. Anytime the spirit calls you gotta know that it's serious and real."
He continued: "I didn't want to be Snoop Dogg on a reggae track… I wanted to bury Snoop Dogg and become Snoop Lion, but I didn't know that until I went to the temple and received the name Snoop Lion from the Nyabingi priest. From that moment on, I started to understand why I was there and was able to create something magical in this project… something I haven't done before in my career."
Snoop Dogg teamed up with Diplo to release a reggae single, titled 'La La La'. You can listen to the track below.

|WCC Overview
Alekhine vs Bogoljubov 1929
Germany and the Netherlands
A few days after Alexander Alekhine won the Capablanca - Alekhine World Championship Match (1927), both masters made a general agreement to play a rematch sometime within the next year, under the same rules as they had played the first match. Jose Raul Capablanca did not, however, issue a formal challenge at this time.[1] On February 10, 1928 Capablanca wrote FIDE president Alexander Rueb, explaining his ideas about future changes to the world chess championship. Capablanca recommended altering the playing times and reducing the number of games to 16. He also forwarded this letter to Alekhine.[2] Alekhine interpreted this as a wish to change the conditions for their planned rematch, and wrote Capablanca that he refused to play under any new conditions.[3] Capablanca answered publicly, explaining that he had been talking about future matches, not the match with Alekhine, which "he hoped to arrange... under precisely the same conditions as those which obtained at Buenos Aires."[4] In the meantime, on August 24, 1928 Efim Bogoljubov now challenged Alekhine to a world title match.[5] Alekhine accepted in principle, provided that Bogoljubov could "give the guarantees provided for under the rules of London of 1922," which included a guaranteed $10,000 purse.[6] On October 8, 1928 Capablanca now formally challenged Alekhine to a rematch.[6] Alekhine wrote Capablanca that he would give Bogoljubov until January 15, 1929 to "arrange for and give me the guarantees provided for under the rules of London of 1922... In case my match with Mr. Bogoljubov should take place.... I would then be ready to accept your challenge, after the end of that encounter."[6] In November 1928, American organizers offered Bradley Beach, New Jersey as a venue for an Alekhine-Capablanca rematch, but there exists no evidence that they ever raised the required $10,000 purse.[7] In January 1929, Alekhine announced that "The match with Bogoljubow interests me far more than the battle with Capablanca... Bogoljubow is a much more serious opponent."[8] In August 1929, when it became clear that Bogoljubov could not guarantee a $10,000 purse, Alekhine agreed to play him for a smaller amount.[9]
Efim Dmitriyevich Bogoljubov was born April 14, 1889 in Stanislavitsk, near Kiev, Russian Empire (today Ukraine).[10] During the 1920s he posted a series of strong results. He drew the Alekhine - Bogoljubov (1921) match, and finished first over Alekhine at Bad Pistyan (1922). After sharing first with Alekhine and Geza Maroczy at Karlsbad (1923), he won both the USSR Championship (1924) and the USSR Championship (1925). At Moscow (1925) he finished first over Emanuel Lasker and reigning world champion Capablanca. Bogoljubov was also the FIDE champion, a title he had won twice in succession: Bogoljubov - Euwe: First FIDE Championship (1928) and Bogoljubov - Euwe: Second FIDE Championship (1928).[11] At Bad Kissingen (1928) he triumphed over a group of very strong masters, including Capablanca. Despite these substantial successes, Bogoljubov's play and results also suffered from inconsistency. The Wiener Schachzeitung noted that prior to the match, no one in the chess world had even the slightest doubt about Alekhine winning, except for Bogoljubov himself.[12]
The match began September 6, 1929 under the following conditions: Alekhine would get $6,000 dollars win or lose, with any surplus going to Bogoljubov. A winner would be declared if he scored 15½ points with 6 wins from a maximum of 30 games.[9] Unlike the Capablanca-Alekhine 1927 match, which had been played in private, the Alekhine-Bogoljubov match would be played in public.[13] The organizers insisted on this, in order to raise money from ticket sales.[14] Only those cities that contributed to the purse would be allowed to host the match: Wiesbaden (games 1-8; 24-25), Heidelberg (games 9-11), Berlin (games 12-17), The Hague (games 18-19; 23), Rotterdam (game 20), and Amsterdam (games 21-22).[15] Emanuel Lasker served as arbiter in the Berlin games.[16]
Alekhine won the 1st game, but Bogoljubov kept pace, evening the score 1-1 after a win in Game 4. The world champion won the next game, and Bogoljubov came right back again to win Game 6, tying the score at 2-2. Alekhine attributed this loss to an "enforced exchange of queens" on move 15 which produced a position that "could not be defended against by accurate play."[17] Capablanca was not impressed, writing to Norbert Lederer "...can you imagine B. winning two games from me or Dr. L. so early?"[18] The world champion now began to draw away with two consecutive victories. Alekhine regarded his win with the black pieces in Game 8 to be among his best, featuring an incisive mating combination beginning with 26...♘g3+![19] The match was now interrupted by a scheduled two week break so that Alekhine could attend the 6th FIDE congress in Venice.[20] On resumption, Alekhine extended his lead to four games, but Bogoljubov clawed back to win games 13 and 14. This would be the challenger's last real resistance. Alekhine now won five of the next eight games, putting the match well out of reach. The final game proved a fitting example of the whole match, which featured exciting, but risky tactical chess throughout. The Wiener Schachzeitung commented that the games were played in "Wild West style," and that Alekhine had won by adapting himself to Bogoljubov's specialty, "the field of tactics."[12]
After the match, the Allgemeine Zeitung asked Alekhine what he thought were the most significant aspects of the
contest. The world champion addressed Emanuel Lasker's prediction that chess would eventually succumb to "draw
death,"[21] explaining that the notion of "draw death in chess is senseless... that is the fault not of chess
but the players concerned."[22] Asked to compare Capablanca and Bogoljubov, Alekhine reckoned that his most
recent foe was "more dangerous, although it is much more difficult to win against Capablanca."[22] In an
interview with a Düsseldorf newspaper, Bogoljubov maintained that "Now nobody has a chance to win a match with
Alekhine." He went on to say that he "would not advise (Capablanca) to play a rematch, because after this new bout, his
aura has completely darkened."[23]
FINAL SCORE: Alekhine 11; Bogoljubov 5 (9 draws)

Measure & Pinch Guest Home Chef : Samantha!/
Samantha's Cherry Tart
Samantha is a dear friend of Measure & Pinch and whenever she visits the M&P headquarters, its a party! Sam is a young, hard-working lawyer from NYC who loves wine, music and hosting dinner parties in her apartment. Sam is a fan of the finer things like luxurious bed sheets and fancy cocktails, but she owns a meat slicer and loves cured meats. She's just wonderful.
During her last visit, Sam made us a Cherry Tart. A sweet treat to top off our festive end-of summer lobster dinner. It was a great night and we're so happy to have this great recipe to share with you.
Cherry Tart ala Martha Stewart (the master of "good things")
Here's what you'll need:
- 6 graham crackers (each 2 1/2 by 5 inches)
- 2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 6 oz. bar cream cheese, room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 pound fresh sweet cherries, such as Bing, pitted and halved
- 1 tablespoon seedless raspberry jam
Here's what you'll do:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, pulse graham crackers and 2 tablespoons sugar until finely ground. Add butter, and process until combined. Transfer mixture to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Using your cute little fingers (see Sam's below) firmly press mixture into bottom and up the sides of pan. Bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese, vanilla, and remaining 1/4 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add cream, and beat until soft peaks form; spread mixture in cooled crust. Scatter cherries on top with the help of the nearest toddler (see below).
3. In a small saucepan, combine jam and 1 teaspoon water; heat over low until liquefied, about 2 minutes. Using a pastry brush, dab cherries with the glaze. Refrigerate tart at least 30 minutes or, covered, up to 1 day.
The boys love Miss Sam, so helpers are easy to find.
Thank you Samantha & Josh for this delicious dessert (and the gifted tart pan)! We look forward to our next kitchen adventure with you!
We interview our Guest Home Chefs using a modified version of James Lipton's questions from The Actor's Studio because after all, you are a Star in your own kitchen!
M&P: What is your favorite food?
Sam: Cheese and bagels. Cured Italian meats... whats on the table right now.
M&P: What is your least favorite food?
Sam: American lamb. It has a strong after taste and smell.
M&P: What turns you on?
Sam: An amazing sample sale. Yves DeLorme sheets. Being comfortable. "Being me; ultimate happiness."
M&P: What turns you off?
Sam: (She turns to Josh, and asks, what turns me off?) Self deprecation and narcissism.
M&P: But those are opposite..?
Sam: I don't like extremes. Balance is most important to me.
M&P: What or who inspires you to cook?
Sam: My grandfather. He was born in Iraq. He can make anything, Italian, Greek food, Kielbasi, steak tartar. He married a Polish woman. He and his wife would go to the Waldorf Astoria and recreate their dinner. He made the most delicious steak tartar. I inherited his meat slicer.
M&P: What is your favorite drink?
Sam: 20th Century. On our third date, Josh took me to the Flatiron Lounge. I had the 20th Century. Its a gin drink with lemon and a chocolate finish. Its amazing. It will be featured at my 30th birthday party.
M&P: What profession would you like to attempt?
Sam: Pilot
M&P: What profession would you wish not to attempt?
Sam: Sewage plant treatment worker.
M&P: If Heaven exists, what do you wish to hear God say to you when you arrive to the pearly gates:
Sam: "You did good."
We love you Miss Samantha! Thank you!!!
Measure & Pinch

Born and raised here, saw an old friend and he told me I had to check it out. Checked it out a couple of times and liked what I saw so now I am a member.
Bought some parts from a member that told me about it.
I was referred here by I think someone named velvetant on another forum years ago.
I don't remember what I had for lunch, let alone a message board I joined over 7 years ago.
Somebody mentioned Reno 4X4 on The Ranger Station.com, that's how I found it.
I read about it at a truck stop urinal while triple tapping in the boys room.-
I needed something to do while hiding from my ex wife

Hi guys. Im from the north shore of oahu. I found this thread by looking for someone who knows how to body lift an xterra. Figured i give it a try and i like it. Learned alot
I found it on Grindr.
Been a member since 07 got deleted& now I finally got back in.
I was over on Pirate and I believe it was someone named Velvet Ant told me to come over here and check it out. Been a few years now.
I found this site back in 2009 when I had a 1976 F-100 4X4 with a 360 cid. I wish I still had that rig!
Last edited by garrambide; January 8th, 2016 at 11:41 AM. Reason: grammer correction
I wish I had answered this when I joined now I can't remember. Pretty sure a fellow jeep owner got me on here
Made a post on reddit and a fellow reno4x4 member referred me here. i think i'll find my way around just fine but i'm definitely a newb to SUV alterations.
Dont remember who exactly.. but few years ago was referred here for jeep and local trail info.
I saw an XJ for sale in Lemmon Valley with a sticker on the windshield.
Bought parts from Toyotajames and he recommended this site, been wheeling with 3rdpetal , and he is on hers, so I'm back
Dennis (September 12th, 2016)
- which was a complete fail -
mainly because of the literal not all of the literal 'Suzuki Reno' automobiles being local to Reno...
So after some combination of Samurai, Reno, trail, and/or 4x4 - I found this place.
Being local is great. You all being friendlier than Pirate is even greater.
Keep up the good work!
Being from Northern Nevadafound this link through a Google thread search.
The day after I moved up to Sparks, the battery in my JKU died while I was at the post office, I ended up going to the local Autozone to get it tested and found out it was toast. While I was pulling the battery to swap out in the parking lot so I could get home, another customer struck up a conversation with me and mentioned the forum. I forget his name, but he worked for Fedex I believe. Nice guy.

Some of the symptoms of fibromyalgia are depression, anxiety, muscle spasms, muscle pain, insomnia and tingling or numbness in the extremities. Other symptoms may include tenderness in the face, muscle tightness, irritated bladder and high sensitivity to certain odors, cold weather and bright lights, as stated by WebMD.
Around 5 million Americans suffer from fibromyalgia, with between 80 and 90 percent of those with the chronic disorder being women, as reported by the National Institute of Arthritis Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases. While it is possible to alleviate symptoms associated with fibromyalgia, it is not easy to treat it. A few examples of medications approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use to treat fibromyalgia are pregabalin, duloxetine and milnacipran.
A person with fibromyalgia may experience extreme fatigue, loss of energy, or numbness in the arms, hands, face, legs or feet, according to WebMD. Other symptoms include irritable bladder, which increases the urge to visit the bathroom. Inability to withstand exercises and feeling pain after performing exercises are other indicators of the problem. The individual may also suffer from muscle spasms.
Constipation that comes along with irritable bowel syndrome, bloating, nausea and abdominal pain may show that an individual has fibromyalgia, WebMD explains. Feeling of stiffness after sitting in one position for a long period or just after waking up are other symptoms of fibromyalgia. Individuals with fibromyalgia may experience habitual sleeplessness, otherwise known as insomnia, or tiredness upon waking up.
A person who suffers from fibromyalgia is likely to be sensitive to certain medications, certain foods, noise, cold and certain odors, notes WebMD. The individual may experience sensitivity to bright lights as well. Tension, migraine headaches, and feeling swollen in the feet and legs may signify that a person has the problem. Symptoms of fibromyalgia may worsen with the time of the day, changes in weather conditions, anxiety, stress and changes in hormone levels.

FARMINGTON — More than a dozen marketing students hope to raise at least $10,000 during their free five-mile walk to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in Wolfeboro this Saturday.
In fact, their grades depend on it.
The 15 members of the Farmington High School marketing class, comprised of sophomores, juniors and seniors, have been working for months to organize the walk as part of their capstone project for the semester-long course.
"To truly understand what marketing is, the students had to come up with an idea on their own and see it through to fruition," marketing teacher Tim Godbois said.
While marketing has been offered as a business elective for many years, Godbois said this is the second year he's used the project-based approach.
The class chose Make-A-Wish because they were inspired by the nonprofit organization, which grants the requests of children with life-threatening medical conditions, after seeing its effects first-hand.
To give his students further incentive, Godbois gave them a goal which could guarantee a successful grade.
"If they raise $10,000 or more, they earn an A for both quarters, but they still have to take the final," Godbois said, adding 60 percent of the final is based on his students coming to the walk on Saturday.
Senior Lori Scanlon, 17, said members of the class have been working together on the project since February. She added they researched what towns could host the walk, which businesses would be interested in making donations and how to get the word out to area residents.
"Everyone's worked really hard on it," Scanlon said.
Each student was required to facilitate a part of the project and ensure the tasks were completed, from setting the route to posting fliers and obtaining donations from Wal-Mart and Coke, which provided water and Snapple for the participants.
Seniors Jillian Radcliffe, 19, Crystal Vaughan, 18, and Marcella Hooper, 17, recently attended a Wolfeboro Selectmen meeting with Godbois in order to gain the necessary approval to hold the walk in the town.
Because they could not pre-register walkers before acquiring the permission, Scanlon said participants are encouraged to make a donation in order for the class to reach their goal.
Registration is scheduled to start at 9 a.m. at Kingswood Regional High School in Wolfeboro and participants will head north along South Main Street at 10 a.m.
"They can either donate and walk or just donate," Scanlon said.
Radcliffe hopes the small wishing well she constructed will further encourage participants and passersby to cast their donations, big or small for the cause.
"I'm really proud of this group," Godbois said. "They've taken complete ownership of this project."

On a cold night a loaded factory trawler enters Reykjavik harbour. On board there are 20,000 boxes of frozen fish, each weighing 25kg. The temperature in the compartment is -35°C and the workers have 48 hours to empty the ship before it goes back to sea.
We spoke to the films director, Hulda Ros Gudnadottir.
Why did you want to make a documentary about harbour workers?
I noticed that in the western world that manual labour is invisible and hidden from sight of the middle class sand mainstream media. People generally don't notice that manual labour is happening all around them. It was very interesting to me when I was telling my twenty-year-old babysitter that I wanted to make this film and she responded to me by asking if workers still existed. It really seems that people don´t notice that everything around them has been moved from one place to the other by someone. I think the general thought is that the biggest revolution in the last thirty years is the internet but as artist, filmmaker and essayist Allan Sekula has expressed: the arrival of containers really revolutionised the way we live and made today´s consumer society possible. It's not just like most products fly around in airplanes around the world. Mostly they are moved by ships and there has never been a point in history were more products have been moved around the world. All those products need to be unloaded and transported all around.

Press Release
LEWISVILLE, Idaho—Worldwide Breast Cancer, a global health charity focused on finding breast cancer better, uses Know Your Lemons, an innovative campaign and educational tool to teach a diverse population about breast cancer symptoms and detection. The campaign is used in 23 languages (Mandarin, Spanish, English, Arabic, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, German, Malaysian, French, Turkish, Italian, Gujarati, Polish, Myanmar, Romanian, Dutch, Greek, Kinyarwanda, Samoan, Norwegian, Hungarian and Serbo-Croatian) and more than 70 countries, and have been viewed by over 200 million people in 2017 alone.
Thanks to initiatives surrounding breast cancer awareness, the world is aware of the disease and dedicated to finding a cure. However, until a cure is found, education for early detection can help women find breast cancer in earlier stages. When found at the earliest stage, the survival rate can be very high. As per the American Cancer Society, the 5-year relative survival rate for women with stage 0 or stage I breast cancer is close to 100%. For women with stage II breast cancer, the 5-year relative survival rate is about 93%.
A recent survey of 19,000 women found:
only two percent of the women surveyed know the signs of breast cancer, and
42 percent didn't feel confident they would be able to spot a change indicative of breast cancer.
Know Your Lemons makes breast cancer education simple. Using a clever image of 12 lemons in an egg carton to represent the signs of breast cancer makes it easy for everyone, no matter their race or level of literacy to visualize what to look and feel for without needing to read.
These lemons are pretty powerful, says Corrine Beaumont, PhD., creator of Know Your Lemons and president of Worldwide Breast Cancer. The campaign can be shown in public without being gory or getting censored, yet it's incredibly detailed… It cuts through all the noise and simply explains what to look for, feel for and… the important steps to take to find it.
The bright and friendly tone of the campaign combined with the innocence of the lemon allows the image to be displayed publicly, without causing emotional discomfort. These principles allow the images to cross common healthcare communication barriers of literacy, taboo and fear, making it the only truly global breast cancer education campaign.
Combining her background in design and breast cancer expertise, Beaumont founded Worldwide Breast Cancer to change the way people view breast cancer, focusing on education for early detection and treatment.
She says, I knew I had to bravely take the leap to leave my job and pursue the charity full time to help educate as many as I could. And so I turned in my notice and formally started the charity, Worldwide Breast Cancer three years ago.
To learn more about the Know Your Lemons campaign visit www.worldwidebreastcancer.org
About Worldwide Breast Cancer
Worldwide Breast Cancer (WBC) is a US nonprofit with a focus on global education to empower women to identify symptoms of breast cancer and manage their disease better. They are dedicated to relieving the burden of breast cancer on patients, their families, and society as a whole through designing disease information in a way that communicates on a universal level overcoming taboo, fear and literacy issues. A global trailblazer in breast cancer education, the nonprofit's breast cancer education materials are used by more than 1000 global education partners in 20+ languages and across 70+ countries. Partners range from dedicated individuals in their communities, to local NGOs, through to large US cancer centers working abroad, and government institutions. The "Know Your Lemons" campaign has reached 3 million around the world in print. The 12 lemons image has been seen on social and electronic media by 200 million people in 2017 alone.
