Tuesday of the Twenty-sixth Week in Ordinary Time, September 28
It Is Through the Victory of Christ, and God's Unfathomable Love for Each of Us, That We Are No Longer Slaves to Sin; We Are No Longer Filled with a Hopelessness Which Binds Us, and Despair Does Not Have a Lasting Hold on Us.
In the Gospel, we read today, "When the days for Jesus to be taken up were fulfilled, he resolutely determined to journey to Jerusalem."
No matter where you or I may find ourselves in life, our existence here on this side of Heaven is a journey, one which takes us through many highs and lows, a journey which allows us to experience the wonderful peaks along with the heartrending valleys through which each one of us must continue to travel throughout our lifetime.
The road upon which we find ourselves traveling may sometimes appear level and smooth; at other times, it is strewn with cracks and potholes.
Our journey of faith can also be very much like this. There will be times in our lives when our relationship with God will seem alive and wonderful. But there will also be those times when we feel all alone, as though God has abandoned us.
It is at times like these when we begin to feel overwhelmed with a great emptiness – a spiritual darkness which seems to envelop us, as though God is no longer listening to our prayers or our pleas for help.
But we know only too well that it is during these times in our lives that our Lord is truly closest to us, for our faith teaches us that God is always listening and always at our side, especially when we find ourselves entering into the despair of our own personal Gethsemanes.
And it through those occasions of darkness, which each of us will have to embrace at different moments in our lives, that we are called to realize a much more intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, for it is only through an open heart that our sufferings allow us to become closer to God; it is through our trials and tribulations in life, accepted in faith, wherein we become sanctified with grace as we move one step closer to that final glory which awaits each of us.
And this is where we find ourselves in today's Scriptures. In our First Reading, God is telling us that peoples of all races, creeds and nationalities will become aware of the great wonder which exists in the New Jerusalem, in which people will respond to His invitation to become one with Him.
"There will yet come peoples and inhabitants of many cities; and the inhabitants of one city will approach those of another, and say, "Come! let us go to implore the favor of the LORD and to seek the LORD of hosts."
And for their journey to become possible, Jesus must make that final and decisive journey of His own, one which shall bring Him to His own despair and darkness – from the anguish of Gethsemane to the suffering and death on the Cross – all for the purpose of making available, to those who will follow, the opportunity of realizing and embracing their own journeys of despair and suffering, their own journeys of darkness – which will ultimately bring them to that Divine Light which shall await them at the end of their passage through this life.
How often have we taken the time to truly wrap our arms around the idea that God sacrificed His only Son out of Infinite Love, so that you and I might be free from sin, free from Satan's unholy grasp upon us, so that we may be offered the most wondrous gift of all – becoming co-heirs with our Lord and Savior in Heaven?
Without this ultimate Sacrifice, we would not enjoy the faith we have today. Without this definitive and decisive surrender of Christ upon His Cross, and His victory over death, we would not have the Mass; we would not know the Sacraments as we do today.
But, most importantly, we would not be nourished and strengthened with the Eucharist – which is the Glorified and Risen Christ Himself, the very Source and Summit of our life of faith!
It is through the victory of Christ, and God's unfathomable Love for each of us, that we are no longer slaves to sin. We are no longer filled with a hopelessness which binds us; and despair no longer has a lasting hold on us.
God's invitation to share in His victory goes out to each of His children. Even those who reject Him are invited again and again, for God desires that no one should be lost and that all be united with Him in His Kingdom. If only they would choose to say "Yes", then the wonders which await them would be beyond human description!
In today's Gospel, the disciples asked, "Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to consume them?" And "Jesus turned and rebuked them." It took the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost to help them realize that we are all God's children – invited to share in His Love, invited to live in hopefulness and joy. For peoples of all nations are called by God to embrace His Truth and His Love.
It is up to us to actively live our faith and open our hearts, extending God's invitation and His Love to all who are filled with despair and hopelessness. We are each called to be the extension of Christ Himself in a world which so badly needs to feel the Love of God in their hearts.
For then, as our psalmist tells us today, we shall all sing, we shall all celebrate in our own way, the wonderful realization that our eternal home is truly with God when we hear our Lord say to us:
"…Well done, my good and faithful servant…Come, share your master's joy." †

All-holy, All-powerful, All-loving, All-merciful.
For it is in our knowledge of You
which shall fill us with an unending joy. Amen."

At a glanceExpert's Rating
ProsLight and comfortable design Reliable sports tracking featuresSolid battery lifeConsNot the prettiestCan't view mapsBasic smartwatch featuresOur Verdict
It might be the cheapest watch in the Coros sports watch family, but the Pace 2 offers the best all-round experience for the money and is a great option for runners, swimmers, cyclists or triathletes that want a strong tracking experience, solid battery life all wrapped up in a workout-friendly design.
Price When Reviewed
Best Prices Today: Coros Pace 2
In a sports watch world that's dominated by Garmin and Polar, Coros has come along in recent years to shake things up. It all started with the Pace and with the Coros Pace 2, it's offering something that's going to appeal to runners, swimmers, cyclists and even triathletes that don't want to spend big on something to track that multi-discipline time.
While the first Pace felt like a Garmin clone, its successor offers a more unique design, the promise of improved tracking and training analysis all while offering strong third party app support and battery life that can last for weeks as opposed to days.
It might miss out on desirable features like navigation support and not be rich in smartwatch features, but what is there makes it a pretty formidable option for anyone that doesn't want to break the bank for a great sports watch.
Design & build
Weighs 29-30g42mm case onlySilicone and nylon band options
The Coros Pace 2 looks markedly different to the original Pace not just in look but also in stature as well. Coros has dropped from a 43mm case down to a smaller 42mm one. It's still all polymer, but when paired up with the lighter nylon strap it weighs in around 29g-30g, making it lighter than the similarly priced Garmin Forerunner 55 (37g).
Mike Sawh
The strap paired up with that polymer case are 20mm sized ones, which use a pin mechanism to make removing them a quick process. Whether you go with the silicone or nylon strap option, the price on the Pace 2 remains the same. If you opt for silicone, you'll get three case colour options instead of the two you get going nylon. The silicone strap option gets you blue steel, navy or white looks, while the nylon gets you just the navy (pictured) and white options.
When it comes to interacting with the watch, Coros has ditched the four physical button setup from the first Pace for its now more familiar single button and twisting dial button combination. That dial lets you scroll through screens emitting a small haptic vibration as you twist it. The sole physical button is your way to go back a screen, jump into the quick settings menu and can also activate the backlight. Coros also includes a night mode, which will keep the backlight on during workout tracking if you need that constant illumination to check out those real-time stats.
Mike Sawh
Front and centre is a 1.2-inch, 240x 240 resolution, always on memory LCD screen with Corning Glass offering some extra protection. It's not a touchscreen display so you can't swipe and tap on it, but you do get some colour in menu screens and watch faces, but it's really all about delivering strong viewing angles in bright outdoor light without hogging too much of the onboard power and that is something the Pace 2 does offer.
Flip the watch over and you'll find the optical sensor array, which can deliver heart rate, but misses out on the SpO2 monitoring that pricier Coros watches do pack. Beside that is the charging port, where Coros' proprietary charging cable that looks a lot like a Garmin one, plugs in.
Coros does offer tracking for pool and open water swimming here and you're getting a design that carries a 5ATM water resistance rating making it safe to be submerged in water up to 50 metres depth.
Fitness and sports tracking
Strong tracking for runs and swimsGood heart rate tracking performance Companion app not the slickest
Coros watches were designed with triathletes in mind so the company focuses on covering the running, cycling, swimming and triathlon bases first, but also includes tracking support for indoor workouts and other outdoor pursuits that can make it useful outside of those core uses.
Pressing the digital dial button gets you into the workout tracking screen where you can twist to scroll through supported activities. For each activity you'll have additional settings to tinker with. So for pool swims, you can set up distance and heart rate alerts while runners can set up interval training sessions from the equivalent screen.
Mike Sawh
The Pace 2 uses a pretty standard accelerometer sensor to track movements for indoor workouts and can look to one of the five big satellite systems to track outdoor activity. It's a single frequency setup, but with GPS, Glonass, Galileo, Beidou and QZSS systems supported, I found that it picked up a signal quickly and distance tracking and core metrics including pace, elevation, split times on the whole was very reliable against a Garmin watch.
Heart rate monitoring performance was surprisingly solid here too, offering similar average and maximum heart rate readings up against a heart rate monitor chest strap. The small design and good fit seems to help generate those good readings, but it wasn't immune to the serving up questionable data, mainly when upping the intensity in workouts. Coros does offer the ability to pair external sensors via ANT+ and Bluetooth and I had no problems pairing up a chest strap in my testing.
One thing you're missing out that runners and outdoor lovers might be disappointed by is the ability to upload routes, view maps or use the watch to navigate your way around a location. This kind of support is offered on the more expensive Coros Apex and Vertix 2 watches, but clearly it's a feature that was sacrificed on the Pace 2 no doubt to keep the price down.
Mike Sawh
For training indoors, the Pace 2 dished out reliable data for pool swims and for indoor bike and rowing sessions. A big new addition is the strength training mode, which offers automatic rep counting via the included motion sensors while a muscle heatmap in the Coros companion app offers a reminder of just how much time you've spent working on that upper or lower body. It's not the first watch to offer automatic rep counting, but it definitely felt the most reliable in terms of the tracking accuracy even if it did miss the odd rep here and there. If you wanted something to track that strength training time, the Pace 2 doesn't do too bad a job.
Beyond tracking, Coros does offer plenty on the training and analysis front. Along with the ability to build workouts and training plans, it also includes new Evolab data insights, which delves into the realms of training effect, training load and assessing fatigue. There's also running-centric insights like assessing your marathon level, scoring your current running performance level and predict finishing times for 5k, 10k, half marathon and marathon distances. All of these insights are reliant on the tracking and sensor data being reliable and while I'd say pair up a heart rate monitor to get the most reliable insights, features like marathon level and the race predictor felt very in tune with our current training.
With that accelerometer on board Coros does also offer the ability to track daily steps and can monitor sleep as well, breaking down sleep stages in a pretty familiar fashion. You can also monitor heart rate continuously and that includes during that time you go to bed. The activity and sleep tracking data felt good on the whole, though if these are the kind of features you care about, you'll find richer support and insights on other sports watches and smartwatches.
Smartwatch features
View notificationsGoPro and Insta 360 cam control modeCompatible with Strava and Apple Health
Much like that 24/7 activity tracking, Coros doesn't go big on smartwatch features, focusing on offering somewhere you can view notifications from your Android phone or iPhone, set alarms, switch up watch faces and use find my phone and watch modes. That's about it though.
Mike Sawh
If you own a GoPro or an Insta360 action camera, there is support offered to take control of those action cams from your watch, so Coros is adding the kind of smart functionality it thinks will give it more appeal to outdoor lovers.
The Coros companion smartphone app is where you can really dig into your stats, adjust watch settings further and set up workout and training plans. It isn't the best-looking app out there, but pretty much does the job when it comes to looking over your stats and changing settings. Data syncs nice and quickly post-workout and if you don't want to spend much time in the Coros app, you can share that data with a host of other apps. That includes Strava, Apple Health, Training Peaks, Adidas running and Stryd along with support for its external foot pod sensor. Data thankfully syncs quickly to those third party apps too once you've set up those connections, which is nice and straightforward to do.
Battery life and charging
20 days in daily useStrong GPS battery life for the priceUseful battery usage mode
The good news is that if you want a sports watch that you can use to track indoor and outdoor workouts regularly throughout a week, the Pace 2 more than lives up to that and has the capacity to go longer.
Mike Sawh
It's improved battery on all fronts on the first Pace, whether that's in the most accurate tracking mode, using it day-to-day or opting for the UltraMax GPS mode, which widens the GPS sampling interval rate to deliver bigger battery numbers.
There isn't a worrying drop-off in battery when using it with that top GPS accuracy mode and it takes a small dent for indoor workouts as well. The standby performance is great as well with little seemingly happening in the background to quietly drain the battery. Coros also includes a really useful battery Battery Usage feature that offers estimated battery life based on usage, and can tell you when you last charged the watch along with current battery drop-off since that last charge.
When it comes to charging, Coros has effectively modelled its charging cable on Garmin's one, which sits securely in the rear of the watch and will get you from 0-100% in under 2 hours. There's no quick charge feature and while it might not be the snappiest charger, its ability to hold battery in general certainly makes up for it.
Price and availability
The Coros Pace 2 might not be the most budget multisports watch option, but at $199/£179, it still sits at the very affordable end of the market and comes in cheaper than a lot of watches from rivals Garmin and Polar.
You can buy it directly from Coros or REI in the US, and from Coros, Cotswold Outdoor, Decathlon, or Amazon in the UK.
To put things into perspective, the entry level Garmin Forerunner 55 is priced at $199.99/£149.99 while the Polar Pacer comes in at $199.95/£169.50. So it's in and amongst Polar and Garmin's cheapest new sports watches.
The Coros Pace 2 is a multisport watch that offers great features for the price. Runners might be the key focus here, but it's a watch that will also serve swimmers, cyclists and triathletes well and even covers indoor activities like strength training well too.
Crucially, it tracks those activities reliably and gives you the option to improve that accuracy by pairing up external sensors. The big thing missing here is any sort of navigation and mapping support, which you will get on pricier Coros watches, but if you can live without them, it's a comprehensive sports tracking experience overall.
It isn't a watch you grab for smartwatch features, but it does make sure you can fire off your data off to big name third party apps instead, which means you can spend less time in a companion app that still feels like a work in progress.
While it's slightly more expensive than Garmin's very impressive Forerunner 55, the extra money you're paying for the Pace 2 gets you more in both sports tracking and battery departments.

(UPDATE) Podcaster Taxstone Bail Denied, Remains In Jail
Taxstone Released From Jail
Update #2. Taxstone will not be released on bail, a judge decided Wednesday. Initially, on Tuesday he was to be released on $500,000 bond and placed on house arrest. However, prosecutors convinced the judge to keep him behind bars. They argued that he was a danger to the community and said witness testimony would "directly show" he fired, at a minimum, the shot that killed McPhatter (Troy Ave's bodyguard). Prosecutors also said additional charges might be brought against Taxstone relating to this testimony, possibly in state court.
Here's the backstory: Popular hip-hop podcast personality Taxstone's (real name Daryl Campbell) bail was set at $500,000. He will be put on house arrest with an ankle monitor. As expected, he will not be able to leave his home, with the exceptions of meeting with lawyers and to record his podcast.
As previously reported, he was arrested for criminal possession of a firearm by a felon and receiving a firearm by interstate commerce. The arrest is in connection to last year's shooting at a concert at Irving Plaza, which injured Troy Ave (real name Roland Collins) and killed his bodyguard Ronald "Banga" McPhatter. Here's footage of the incident, captured by a concert-goer.
Gunshots just went off at the T.I concert, never been so scared in my life pic.twitter.com/rn0CjpAuaU
— Marco (@markygeezy) May 26, 2016
According to a report,
Campbell is believed to have entered the room where the shooting took place with the firearm in question, a 9mm Kel-Tec semiautomatic handgun. It's the same gun that left Troy Ave wounded and Banga dead, and the DNA traces on the gun have prosecutors concluding that Campbell loaded the gun. In surveillance footage that circulated across the internet at the time, Troy Ave, born Roland Collins, is seen leaving the green room where the initial shooting occurred wearing blood-spattered jeans and holding the gun that Taxstone allegedly brought into the venue that night. He aims and fires at someone that looks like Campbell, leading to Troy being arrested for attempted murder. The prosecution has used social media pictures and clips from Taxstone's own podcast to build their case against him. One audio clip released prior to the May shooting finds Campbell boasting about how he'd shoot people who ran up on him. "When I see you walking up with six dudes, bang-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba…I want to embarrass somebody, and that's why I started bullying Troy Ave, you know what I mean?" The two were known to have a long-standing beef with each other.

In this example, we are going to learn how to build a Docker image with
MongoDB pre-installed. We'll also see how to
push that image to the
Docker Hub registry and share it with others!
Note: This guide will show the mechanics of building a MongoDB container, but you will probably want to use the official image on Docker Hub
Using Docker and containers for deploying MongoDB instances will bring several benefits, such as:
Note: If you do not like
sudo, you might want to check out Giving non-root access.
Let's create our
Dockerfile and start building it:
$ nano Dockerfile
Although optional, it is handy to have comments at the beginning of a
Dockerfile explaining its purpose:
# Dockerizing MongoDB: Dockerfile for building MongoDB images
# Based on ubuntu:latest, installs MongoDB following the instructions from:
# http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/
Dockerfiles are flexible. However, they need to follow a certain format. The first item to be defined is the name of an image, which becomes the parent of your Dockerized MongoDB image.
We will build our image using the latest version of Ubuntu from the Docker Hub Ubuntu repository.
# Format: FROM repository[:version]
FROM ubuntu:latest
Continuing, we will declare the
MAINTAINER of the
# Format: MAINTAINER Name <email@example.com>
MAINTAINER M.Y. Name <email@example.com>
Note: Although Ubuntu systems have MongoDB packages, they are likely to be outdated. Therefore in this example, we will use the official MongoDB packages.
We will begin with importing the MongoDB public GPG key. We will also create a MongoDB repository file for the package manager.
# Installation:
# Import MongoDB public GPG key AND create a MongoDB list file
RUN apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv EA312927
RUN echo "deb http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu $(cat /etc/lsb-release | grep DISTRIB_CODENAME | cut -d= -f2)/mongodb-org/3.2 multiverse" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-3.2.list
After this initial preparation we can update our packages and install MongoDB.
# Update apt-get sources AND install MongoDB
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y mongodb-org
Tip: You can install a specific version of MongoDB by using a list of required packages with versions, e.g.:
dockerfile RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y mongodb-org=3.0.1 mongodb-org-server=3.0.1 mongodb-org-shell=3.0.1 mongodb-org-mongos=3.0.1 mongodb-org-tools=3.0.1
MongoDB requires a data directory. Let's create it as the final step of our installation instructions.
# Create the MongoDB data directory
RUN mkdir -p /data/db
Lastly we set the
ENTRYPOINT which will tell Docker to run
mongod inside
the containers launched from our MongoDB image. And for ports, we will use
EXPOSE instruction.
# Expose port 27017 from the container to the host
# Set usr/bin/mongod as the dockerized entry-point application
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/bin/mongod"]
Now save the file and let's build our image.
Note: The full version of this
Dockerfilecan be found here.
With our
Dockerfile, we can now build the MongoDB image using Docker. Unless
experimenting, it is always a good practice to tag Docker images by passing the
--tag option to
docker build command.
# Format: docker build --tag/-t <user-name>/<repository> .
# Example:
$ docker build --tag my/repo .
Once this command is issued, Docker will go through the
Dockerfile and build
the image. The final image will be tagged
All Docker image repositories can be hosted and shared on
Docker Hub with the
docker push command. For this,
you need to be logged-in.
# Log-in
$ docker login
# Push the image
# Format: docker push <user-name>/<repository>
$ docker push my/repo
The push refers to a repository [my/repo] (len: 1)
Sending image list
Pushing repository my/repo (1 tags)
Using the MongoDB image we created, we can run one or more MongoDB instances as daemon process(es).
# Basic way
# Usage: docker run --name <name for container> -d <user-name>/<repository>
$ docker run -p 27017:27017 --name mongo_instance_001 -d my/repo
# Dockerized MongoDB, lean and mean!
# Usage: docker run --name <name for container> -d <user-name>/<repository> --noprealloc --smallfiles
$ docker run -p 27017:27017 --name mongo_instance_001 -d my/repo --smallfiles
# Checking out the logs of a MongoDB container
# Usage: docker logs <name for container>
$ docker logs mongo_instance_001
# Playing with MongoDB
# Usage: mongo --port <port you get from `docker ps`>
$ mongo --port 27017
# If using docker-machine
# Usage: mongo --port <port you get from `docker ps`> --host <ip address from `docker-machine ip VM_NAME`>
$ mongo --port 27017 --host 192.168.59.103
Tip: If you want to run two containers on the same engine, then you will need to map the exposed port to two different ports on the host
# Start two containers and map the ports
$ docker run -p 28001:27017 --name mongo_instance_001 -d my/repo
$ docker run -p 28002:27017 --name mongo_instance_002 -d my/repo
# Now you can connect to each MongoDB instance on the two ports
$ mongo --port 28001
$ mongo --port 28002

Improving the quality of product content is paramount to achieving eCommerce priorities. Yet unlocking data quality is easier said than done.
Business Impacts: Inaccurate & Incomplete Data
Inaccurate data creates massive inefficiencies to the global commerce ecosystem. Without quality data at the beginning of a process, it is extremely time consuming and costly to manage later.
Hours spent annually manually managing product content for a company with 10,000 SKUs
Online grocery shoppers expect more production information
Reduction in returns from detailed, accurate product descriptions
Error in case height =
- 1,000 fewer cases per truckload
- 20 fewer cases per pallet
- 6 more trucks than necessary
Does This Sound Familiar?
Without guidelines to your data entry process, you risk errors in your data, redundant work, and items sitting idle that could be selling.
Challenges With This Approach
Here are just some of the risks that a missing data quality process can pose.
Why Is Having Good Data Quality Difficult?
Companies often struggle to stay updated with changing requirements and efficiently manage content across multiple channels and siloed data sources.
Creating Data Stewardship Through Continuous Improvement
Establishing a data culture and improving data quality is not a one-time project. It is an ongoing discipline that drives breakthrough results and critical competitive advantages. A simple approach involves the following steps:
- Set content requirements
- Add rules (format)
- Fit for purpose scoring model
- All content evaluated, scored
- Report – Volume, Trends
- Feedback and iteration
Data Quality Dimensions
There are many elements that determine data quality, and each can be prioritized differently by different organizations based on their goals.
Data Quality Principles
When the right data is delivered to the right place at the right time, your business wins. Your data should be:
1. Easy to create
- New item setup process
- GS1 compliant
- Single-source system of truth
3. Easy to share
- Company-wide understanding
- Easy-to-use systems (Not email!)
- Access to GS1 network
2. Easy to update
- Attribute accountability
- Clear lines of communication
- Documented rules to protect quality
Short-Term Wins: How to Create & Manage Quality Data
Here are some basic ways to take charge of your data quality and give your customers the best shopping experience online and in-store:
Product Information Management System: Accessible to all with workflows and protections consistent with governance.
Photographer: Hire a professional who understands GS1 Standards and your governance procedures.
Connections: The GS1 Network is important, but also consider other places that your data needs to go.
Data Quality Engine: Completeness, Readiness, Accuracy
Syndigo's robust Data Quality Engine performs thousands of validations to ensure not only the completeness, but also the readiness and accuracy of your data.

End-to-End Content Process for Smarter Growth
It is difficult to distribute data in multiple formats across retailers and internal departments. Managing it all is a drain on internal resources, and a challenge if using multiple solution providers. And if data quality is the driver, then it starts with a single source of truth.
A recent Forrester Consulting study, commissioned by Syndigo, revealed that
94% of participants
believe that having an end-to-end solution to create, manage, syndicate, enrich, and optimize product data would be valuable for retailer integration.
Syndigo is your single end-to-end solution for all content management and distribution, across GDSN, nutrition, core and enhanced content, with analytics & reporting…enabling our clients to provide a single source of truth to their consumers.
Our Content Experience Hub saves time and resources by integrating all product content management in a single place, away from existing process of managing multiple data sources manually and independently.

Dancehall Queen (DHQ) Nickeisha is not here for Marvin The Beast's vision of how the reason they called it quits.
According to the controversial dancer, his longtime relationship with Nickeisha ended amicably because the two outgrew each other and wanted to do their own thing.

The director of the Clinic for Infectious and Tropical Diseases, Dr. Goran Stevanovic, said, after the meeting with the Minister of Health and the directors of other Covid hospitals held today, that the situation in Serbia is alarming and that we are running out of the capacity for more for Covid patients.
He said that a large number of Covid patients are among the younger population and most of them have a severe clinical picture; they often arrive in hospitals after seven days of home treatment.
"The only measures we are sure about are physical distance, masks, and vaccination. And that is our problem because they are not applied enough. Another requirement is that the vaccine becomes mandatory for health workers - this would protect health workers and those treated, and we would therefore give impetus to vaccination in Serbia," Stevanovic said.
He added that Selters Spa will be reactivated into the Covid system by the end of the week and that other centers are being prepared in order to provide additional capacities.
"Selters is preparing to re-enter the Covid system as soon as possible. That will also happen for Belgrade on Friday, the latest," he said, adding that "each of the regional centers is preparing to provide additional capacities."

Letter to the editor
October 15, 2018
Dear Editor,
The press and media influence today's society the most. You get to share your experiences with others on social media and get to see what your friends are doing as well. Youtube,Facebook, and news posts effect how we think and feel about certain things and starts creative trends.
This article is very relevant and timely, because of what Donald Trump has said continuously about the press and media and how people feel about it all. I really thought the polls were a very smart visual that tells you what different political parties think of this situation.
A good journalist is supposed to show you all the different sides and perspectives of something. They are supposed to bring new ideas and inform you about topics that no one seems to be able to agree on in a fresh creative way.

Scientific study of rituals requires an understanding of their nature. As perceived by H. Hubert and M. Mauss (Essai sur la nature et la fonction du sacrifice, 1898), a basic aspect of the nature of sacrificial ritual is its dynamic structure. The present work takes up the neglected quest for a theory of ritual and methodology of analysis that recognize and trace the contours of ritual dynamic structure.
The resulting fresh approach provides a controlled framework for interpreting rituals belonging to various cultures and for identifying bases of comparison between them. Two important innovations are:
1. Application of General Systems Theory concepts to study human rituals as hierarchically structured human activity systems.
2. Application of F. Staal's "ritual syntax" (developed in the context of Vedic studies) to ancient Near Eastern rituals.
The first part of Ritual Dynamic Structure builds a theory and definition of ritual and a corresponding methodology for analyzing specific rituals in terms of their activities and the meanings attached to those activities. The second part illustrates this methodology and its usefulness for comparative studies by applying it to ceremonies belonging to three ancient Near Eastern festival days of cult purification: the Israelite Day of Atonement, the fifth day of the Babylonian New Year Festival of Spring, and the fourth day of the Hittite Ninth Year Festival of Telipinu.

GracieMag posted this interesting article about a Brazilian journalist and his objection to the violence found in UFC.
"The UFC's Popular? So is Crack"
Yes, some matches end up bloodier then others, but if we are lambasting popular contact sports and their violence, where the reference to boxing? Or hell, football and hockey? For real, hockey is pretty damn violent considering it's really just about guys skating around a rink, pushing a puck into a netted goal.
While I agree MMA (not just the UFC) is violent, it's tiring as a fan of MMA to watching the "new kid on the block" being singled out as a vicious, brutal sport that is only out for blood and gore: yes, UFC sort of did it to itself with the years of reference to a gladiator in its opening sequence, but that's a conversation I don't feel like getting into. First and foremost, that's (I sincerely hope) not what the majority of people are paying to see: people want to see two skilled athletes use their best techniques and wit to win over the other opponent, which can also be said about boxing. MMA just happens to have more options and avenues to achieve that win. Of course you'll have people who boo at the ground game, but I'm sure there are boxing fans that don't care about the artful dodging and weaving, the footwork, the blocking, and just want to see some guy get punched in the face until he's unconscious.
Talk about the violence in MMA, and the UFC, but don't make it the sole scapegoat to point out humanity's bloodlust.

Utility Measures of Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients Treated for Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo
Published on: March 30, 2009
Ear Hear. 2009 Mar 30.
Utility Measures of Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients Treated for Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo.
1Alabama Hearing and Balance Associates, Foley, Alabama; 2Bay Pines VA Healthcare System, Bay Pines, Florida; 3West Texas Rehabilitation Center, Abilene, Texas; 4Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida; and 5The American Institute of Balance, Seminole, Florida.
OBJECTIVES:: Comparing the effects of different disorders and interventions on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is important for healthcare policy and accountability. There are two basic approaches to measure HRQoL: questionnaires derived from psychometrics and preference-based measures or utilities derived from econometrics. While disease-specific HRQoL questionnaires, such as the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI), are important because they focus on the impact of a specific problem and its treatments (i.e., vestibular disorders), economic comparisons of the impacts of diseases/disorders and their treatments are typically based on utility assessment. The utility measures for audiology application (UMAA) were developed to measure utilities for various audiologic conditions using a standard computer. The purpose of this study was to determine if the UMAA provides stable, valid, and sensitive utility measures of the effects of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and its treatment on HRQoL. It was hypothesized that utilities, as measured by the UMAA, would indicate improvement in HRQoL post-treatment for BPPV comparable to a disease-specific health status measure (DHI). DESIGN:: The UMAA incorporates three techniques to measure utility: rating scale, standard gamble, and time tradeoff. A utility is a cardinal measure of strength of preference and is measured on a continuum basis from 0.0 (incapacitating dizziness) to 1.0 (no dizziness). Fifty-two adults with BPPV of the posterior semicircular canal completed the UMAA and DHI before treatment and again post-treatment. A subgroup of 15 participants completed the UMAA on two occasions before treatment to assess test-retest stability and to establish critical difference values. RESULTS:: Results from this investigation demonstrate that utilities as measured through the UMAA are stable, valid, and comparable to the DHI. Post-treatment utilities were also significantly higher than pretreatment utilities, indicating that the utilities, as measured through the UMAA, are sensitive to improvement in HRQoL after BPPV treatment. CONCLUSIONS:: Utilities as measured through the UMAA seem sensitive to changes in HRQoL after treatment of BPPV. Since the UMAA can be used to measure patient preference (i.e., utility), it may be useful for comparison of specific audiologic conditions, such as BPPV, to nonaudiologic conditions, such as cardiovascular disease and kidney disease.

Note: Barb Bruno is one of the most in-demand trainers and conference speakers in staffing and search. We asked her what questions came up most frequently this year during her presentations. Over the next few weeks Barb will share these questions and her responses.
Before I address the question posed in the headline, I'd like to ask you one question. The last time you sent in a rock star what happened to the interview process?
More than likely, interviews were combined and the process went much faster than you anticipated. This is almost always the scenario when you send in candidates who are the caliber your clients want to hire.
When the interview process slows down and clients are taking longer than normal to hire, is it their fault or yours? There are instances that can delay hires including:
- Changed priorities.
- An internal candidate surfaces.
- The hiring budget is slashed.
- Your candidate is a backup, not the front runner.
- There is no urgency to hire because no problems exist as a result of the vacancy.
- A more qualified candidate has surfaced.
However, the number one reason clients take so long to hire is they are not in love with your candidates. They are not sure the candidates you submitted will make them look good or provide a strong ROI after they are hired. This causes your client to continue to interview and delay the process.

Notre Dame running back Kyren Williams has burst onto the national college football scene this fall as he's gone over 1100 total yards while scoring 15 touchdowns for the Fighting Irish.
Part of the success is surely running behind a great offensive line but Williams has shown a talent level at running back that hasn't been seen at Notre Dame in quite some time.
After his 124 rushing yards and three total touchdowns last week at North Carolina, Williams was named to the FWAA Fresh Four, which honors the best four freshmen or red-shirt freshmen each week.
Here is the release from Notre Dame on Tuesday:
Williams Named to FWAA Fresh Four
NOTRE DAME, Indiana — Notre Dame running back Kyren Williams was tabbed for the Football Writers Association of America "Fresh Four" list for his performance against No. 19 North Carolina. The list honors four true or redshirt freshmen with standout showings from the previous week. Williams, a redshirt freshman, totaled 144 all-purpose yards and three touchdowns in the 31-17 win over the Tar Heels.
Posting 23 rushes for 124 yards and two touchdowns, Williams, also named ACC Running Back of the Week, added four receptions for 20 yards and a touchdown. His three total touchdowns ranked tied for third among all FBS players on the weekend. He was the only FBS player with three or more touchdowns this weekend to have at least one receiving touchdown and one rushing touchdown. His three touchdowns tied for most by a single ACC player (non-quarterback) on the weekend.
Williams' 144 all-purpose yards were the most among any ACC running back on the weekend, and were the fourth-most among all ACC players. Ranking 16th among FBS running backs with his 144 all-purpose yards, Williams is the only running back who posted 122 or more all-purpose yards who also scored a receiving touchdown. Friday marked William's fifth 100-yard rushing performance of the season, which ties for most in the ACC.
No FBS freshman had more than William's 18 points on the weekend. Williams posted the most all-purpose yards (144) of any Power 5 freshman running back, and ranked third in all-purpose yards among all FBS freshman players on the weekend.
Williams and the Irish will again take the field Saturday, December 5, to close out their home schedule as they welcome Syracuse (2:30 p.m. ET on NBC).

The title of this installment should conjure up Christmas, "Go Tell it on the Mountain." The song refers to spreading the Good News, and that is what we need to do as well.
I was riding my bike to work this morning, and I came up on where an animated electronic billboard use to be. The old billboard would light up the night with advertisements. But the electronic board is now gone.
What was put in it's place is a regular billboard. I rode past the billboard, and I looked up, the lights were not illuminating the board, but there was advertisements on the board. It was for a 24 hour mini mart at the next exit. How many people missed the opportunity to go to the mini mart, and how much business did that mini mart loose.
When you don't advertise your blog, you have a billboard without lights. You might have the best information on the web, but people aren't going to just stumble upon your sight by happenstance. Now you might get one or two visitors, but people are not going to be knocking down your door.
What can you do to get more visitors?
There are many ways to get more visitors, some of the ways to get visitors is to use "Key Words" These are SEO or Search Engine Optimized words that people are searching for. The only issue is, the words have to be something about what is in your article. I should not put in "The Oscars" in my key words to drive people to my site, especially if I did not even mention "The Oscars." Use Key words in your writing, so you can use key words in your optimizing as well
Another way is to actually pay for advertising, Google will charge you to put your Blog on google ads. I have never really gone this route, but that is because I cannot pay for advertising; One of these days I might try it out, but not for right now.
Log onto forums, and read other people's blogs.
We will be getting more into this tomorrow, however, there are sites dedicated to advertising your blog. Put yourself out there; you might not get that many viewers, but the ones you get will be there for your content.This is the best way in my estimation, because it does not cost anything, yet it builds community.
The whole thing here is don't be an un-lit billboard, you have something important to say, so say it; not just say, but "Go Tell it on the Mountain."

Aave Secures UK Financial License, LEND Surges to All-Time Highs
Aave hit all-time highs after becoming the first DeFi project to receive a monetary license in the UK.
Key Takeaways
- Aave has been granted an Electronic Money Institution license by the UK's Financial Conduct Authority
- Such authorization would help the blockchain startup on-board new users as well as provide key payment services
- Investors rushed to buy LEND following the news, pushing prices to new all-time highs
Share this article
Aave surged to new all-time highs after the UK's financial watchdog granted the company a major financial license for issuing electronic money.
Aave Scores Financial License in the UK
Non-custodial lending and borrowing protocol Aave has been given the green light in the United Kingdom to offer services such as issuing "electronic money (e-money) and [providing] payment services."
The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) had approved the Electronic Money Institution (EMI) license on July 7. However, the authorization was recently made official with its publication on the federal agency's website.
Stani Kulechov, founder and CEO at Aave, said that the EMI would help his business on-board new users, much like Coinbase has been able to do across Europe.
"The objective was to help Aave Ecosystem to access payment accounts and on-board users into DeFi. Electronic Money Institution is the same authorization that Coinbase and Revolut has in Europe. It will mostly support on-boarding new users into the Aave Ecosystem and to the decentralized protocol over time," said Kulechov.
As Aave prepares to take a leap towards decentralization with its upcoming "Aavenomics" upgrade, the recent move will help the firm expand globally by officially piloting their product in the UK. Kulechov believes that sooner rather than later, users will be able to "go from fiat to stablecoins and other assets natively in the Aave Ecosystem."
Following the announcement, prices surged as speculators rushed to buy LEND. The spike in the buying pressure behind this token pushed its price up to a new all-time high of over $0.75. Now, multiple indexes suggest that Aave may have more room to go up.
LEND's On-Chain Metrics Turn Bullish
Data from Santiment reveals that alongside prices, on-chain and social volume also spiked. Taken together, these are positive signs that, combined with an increase in daily active addresses, can help determine whether Aave is poised to advance further. Usually, when these three indexes rise together, a positive price movement tends to follow.
Now that LEND has entered price discovery mode, all the addresses on the network are in-the-money, according to IntoTheBlock. These figures indicate that the investor base behind the non-custodial lending and borrowing token expects further upwards price action. Therefore, any downswing may be taken as an opportunity by sidelined investors to get back into the market.
If this were to happen, IntoTheBlock's "Global In/Out of the Money" (GIOM) model reveals there is a crucial supply wall underneath Aave that could hold a downswing at bay. Based on this on-chain metric, roughly 3,700 addresses hold nearly 105 million LEND purchased around $0.574. This price also forms the basis of the nearest support level.
Without any significant supply barriers ahead, the sky is the limit for Aave—at least in the short-term. Nevertheless, given the speculative nature of DeFi, traders should proceed with caution.

John Elway is the most powerful man in Colorado sports. He arguably is the most powerful John in Colorado. Forgive me, governor.
Of the 53 players who finished last season on the active roster, 49 were drafted or signed as free agents during the reign of John — Elway, not Hickenlooper. Only Demaryius Thomas, Ryan Clady, David Bruton and Britton Colquitt were Broncos in 2010.
Of the 29 players Elway has drafted, 25 were with the Broncos last season on the active roster, the injured list and the practice squad.
Six players drafted in 2011 — Julius Thomas, Rahim Moore, Orlando Franklin, Virgil Green, Nate Irving and Quinton Carter — are unrestricted free agents. (Von Miller, the No. 1 pick that year, is signed through 2015.)
How many of the half-dozen will return? Elway said publicly he would like to sign them all, but that's unrealistic. Julius Thomas will be gone — and take his dad with him — and probably Moore and Franklin. The other three probably will re-sign.
The seven other unrestricted free agents are Demaryius Thomas, Terrance Knighton, Wes Welker, Jacob Tamme, Will Montgomery, Mitch Unrein and Ben Garland.
Elway said at the combine that if a long-term contract cannot be worked out with D.T., he will be franchised. Welker is not retiring, but he certainly would have to return at a severely reduced rate from $6.7 million. Tamme probably won't be invited back. Knighton claims he's getting no love from the Broncos, and is positioning to join Jack Del Rio at Oakland. Even though Montgomery played in a zone-blocking offense at Washington, he's not in the Broncos' future. Unrein and Garland are.
So, what's Elway to do in replacing six to 12 players?
Sign more veteran free agents.
The Broncos are about $26 million under the salary cap, which is expected to be raised by $10 million to $146 million. After the franchising of Demaryius Thomas and the trimming of a few veterans, the Broncos will have plenty for another spending spree.
And if the budget gets tight later, Peyton Manning, as he has before, will restructure his contract.
Last year, the Broncos signed five free agents who became starters. They can do it again.
Elway and I do not always agree about players. (Read: rarely and never.) I wanted John to draft cornerback Patrick Peterson; he chose Von Miller. Both turned out to be the best. I wanted wide receiver Donte Moncrief; he picked Cody Latimer. We shall find out in 2015.
I want to help Elway again.
Here are the Broncos' first-round draft pick and free agents they should pursue:
• Tight end Maxx Williams, University of Minnesota. The 6-foot-4, 255-pound Mad Maxx catches everything, is an angry red-zone threat and was a star at the combine.
• Right offensive tackle Bryan Bulaga (Green Bay). Big-ticket item ($6 mil per), but big-time lineman in a zone-blocking system. If he stays with the Packers, Derek Newton, late of the Houston Texans, should be next on the list. He played right tackle for Gary Kubiak and would come for about half the price. Mike Iupati (San Francisco) is pricey, but worth it.
• Tight end Owen Daniels. He was with Kubiak in Houston and Baltimore and knows the system and can get open. Jordan Cameron wants out of Cleveland and would want in with the Broncos.
• Nose tackle Dan Williams (Arizona). He made $2.1 million last year and filled up the middle at 6-2, 327 pounds. Call him Meat Loaf. He's a natural nose tackle and an upgrade over Pot Roast.
• Edge rusher Pernell McPhee was a valuable backup with Baltimore and could be more important with Denver. His salary was only $681,000 in 2014. Linebacker Brooks Reed is another guy developed by the present Broncos defensive coaches in Houston, and he was a $1 million player last season. Three other free agents were trained with the Texans — inside linebacker Akeem Dent ($725,000), cornerback Kareem Jackson ($4.3 million) and safety Kendrick Lewis ($635,000). The Broncos should take a run at the trio.
• Two more: Jared Odrick, a defensive end with the Dolphins. He's a real player at 6-5. And this will lift your eyebrows: safety Devin McCourty. It would require about $9 million a year to pry him out of New England, but the Patriots can't pay him and Darrelle Revis.
So, show us your power-ball play, John.

If Trump Attacks North Korea, There's 'No End' to Wars He Might Start, Senator Warns
Democratic Senator Chris Murphy warned that if President Donald Trump conducted a preemptive military strike on North Korea without congressional approval, it would be a slippery slope toward further violent conflict.
"If the Trump administration uses broad Article II authority to justify an attack against North Korea, there is literally no end to their ability to make war without Congress. Congress would be wholly and completely irrelevant in the question of overseas military action," Murphy told Vox in an interview published Monday.
The senator has become increasingly vocal about his concerns over Trump's provocative rhetoric toward North Korea, and worries the president has made armed conflict with the reclusive nation a real possibility.
Murphy and two of his Democratic colleagues, senators Cory Booker and Brian Schatz, are currently drafting legislation that aims to prevent Trump from launching a military strike against North Korea, nuclear or non-nuclear, without congressional approval.
"I simply do not believe that the Constitution gives the president the ability to conduct military action abroad absent an attack on the United States, or an imminent threat of attack," Murphy said. "But the president's advisers seem to be suggesting that they perceive his powers to be much broader than that. This legislation would clear up that discrepancy."
Murphy's legislation hopes to address some of the more murky aspects of presidential war powers. The bill would say the Trump administration "cannot take military action, and can use no funds for military action, unless there is an attack, an imminent attack, or you've gotten congressional authorization," he explained.
Under the U.S. Constitution, the president is the commander in chief of the U.S. military, but technically can't actually declare war without approval from Congress. From the earliest days of the U.S., however, presidents have been testing the limits of their authority in this regard.
After the war in Vietnam, Congress passed the War Powers Act of 1973 to further limit the president's authority to commit U.S. forces overseas. Under the act, the president can only undertake military action under three circumstances: a declaration of war, specific statutory authorization from Congress or a national emergency created by an attack upon the United States.
The act does not discuss the prospect of an imminent attack against the U.S., and Murphy said his bill would do so. He said this is important because he feels the Trump administration is trying to present the progress North Korea is making with its nuclear program as an imminent threat, something he calls "preposterous."
During an interview with Newsweek earlier in October, Murphy was somewhat reluctant to endorse a legislative approach to restricting Trump's war powers, and he still seems skeptical Republicans will support the bill he's putting forward. He admitted to Vox that he moved the bill "pretty quickly" and has not yet had time to negotiate with the GOP. But, he added: "There's nothing in here that Republicans couldn't support."
Senator Bob Corker, who's been quite publicly feuding with Trump lately, has expressed concern over the president's stance and behavior toward North Korea. But it's not clear if he would come out in support of legislation regarding presidential war powers.
Similar legislation to limit Trump's military authority has already been introduced by other Democrats in Congress. In January, Representative Ted Lieu and Senator Edward Markey introduced a bill that would prohibit Trump from conducting a first-use nuclear strike without "a congressional declaration of war expressly authorizing such strike."
The bills are similar but address "different issues," Chris Harris, communications director for Murphy, told Newsweek.
Lieu's bill is specifically concerned with the use of nuclear weapons, which is "a tactical decision in a military conflict," Harris explained. "Murphy's bill is about military authorization of force [and] war powers. It would essentially restate current constitutional and legal requirements that any military action must be specifically authorized by Congress unless there is an attack [or] imminent attack."

Often vilified, eggs have had to fight to regain their place in our diet
Often vilified, eggs have had to fight to regain their place in our diet. For years they were portrayed as bad for us, containing too much cholesterol and fat. Thankfully, those days are over.
The Heart Foundation confirms that "all Australians, including people with diabetes or metabolic syndrome, who follow a healthy balanced diet low in saturated fat can eat up to six eggs each week without increasing their risk of cardiovascular disease".
Indeed, eggs are one of the best fast foods available on the market. They are economical and provide a host of nutrients and vitamins our bodies need; they come pre-packaged and can be taken on the road or enjoyed at home at any time of day; and they can be eaten on their own or as part of a multitude of sweet and savoury dishes. One popular legend holds that a chef's white hat has 100 pleats—one for each way an egg can be cooked.
Are all eggs the same?
Egg colour is not based on the diet the chicken eats, but rather on its breed. However, the chicken's diet is directly linked to the internal characteristics of an egg. For example, eggs rich in omega-3 fatty acids are laid by hens that eat a diet rich in omega-3s, such as linseed.
For the well-being of the chickens, free-range organic eggs are a must. Plus, pasture-raised free-range hens that forage largely for their own food may produce eggs with more healthy fats and vitamins A and E than standard factory eggs.
