Arizona State football's Herm Edwards slammed for 'trust' comments, lack of accountability
Arizona State football coach Herm Edwards did an interview with Dan Bickley and Vince Marotta on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM on Tuesday and one of his comments did not go over well with some ASU fans and media members.
In the interview on the Bickley and Marotta Show, Edwards said he doesn't "micromanage" people and that you have to "trust" people, when asked if his loyalty had potentially been taken advantage of by previous members of his coaching staff.
He said: "I feel this way, that when you delegate responsibility you have to trust people. I live in a world like that. I grew up this way. I don't micromanage people. I understand what is going on for the most part, but at the end of the day, football is about trust, by the way. This game is built on trust. … People in the circle you've got to trust each other that they are going to do their job. If they don't, you can't run the play. It doesn't function that way ... Sports is all about trust. It's about the people that you trust that are going to do their jobs correctly and in the right way."

Many were swift to react to the quote, wondering if Edwards was trying to pass the blame instead of be accountable for the state of the ASU football program, which is being investigated by the NCAA for recruiting violations.
Some were not easy on the coach.

In an email, Republic reader Andrew Sullivan wrote: "Edwards is correct in saying that you must trust those that you hire. On the flip side Edward's must take the blame when he makes mistakes on those that he hires in the first place. What kind of leadership compass did he present in the first place? The leader sets a trend that must be followed. If he's innocent of wrong doing he is not innocent of establishing a unacceptable working environment. Sorry coach but you hired the carpenters that built your house. Now, when the house falls apart you can't claim that the poor workmanship of those carpenters isn't on you."
More:Herm Edwards video resurfaces amid Arizona State football NCAA recruiting investigation
Curtis Byrnes, another reader, offered this: "Edwards statements reflect who he really is - 'a true snake oil salesman' spouting off all the blather about high standards, teamwork, character, honesty, togetherness and trust. He placed all the blame on his employees (young coaches) and accepted none of the responsibility for where the program is currently. History demonstrates that all great leaders take responsibility for the actions of those under their charge. All he wants to do is blame young coaches for doing things the way they thought he wanted him done. To assume that they violated recruiting rules without his knowledge is a stretch. If for no other reason, he needs to be terminated because he did not properly supervise those in his charge. He lacks courage to do the proper thing. Wasn't this supposed to be the great Anderson/Edwards reset where they demonstrated a new/better way to do things in college athletics? All that really happened was: Anderson hired his buddy and they tried to prove that they were smarter than everybody else. Unfortunately, it was a failure and now the ASU athletic program will be years recovering from the mistake."
The Sun Devils are scheduled to open the 2022 season at home against Northern Arizona on Sept. 1.

When hiring professional exterior home cleaning services, you will come across soft and pressure washing services. Common questions that many have is what is the difference between the two methods and when should you use one over the other? The truth is, there is a very big difference, and it's vital to understand that to make sure you don't damage your property.
Pressure Washing & Power Washing
Pressure and power washing use high pounds per square inch (PSI) levels to effectively blast away all contaminants around your property. Professional contractors often use between 2000 to 3000 PSI depending on the surface material and amount of dirt and grime that need to be removed. There is a difference between these two methods – power washing uses hot water to not only eliminate dirt and other buildup but to sanitize the surfaces as well. Pressure washing, on the other hand, does not use hot water.
What is Soft Washing
Soft washing is another effective method; however, it does not use high PSI. The secret to eliminating mold and mildew with this technique is the powerful, eco-friendly detergents. Professionals who specialize in this technique will apply solvents to the contaminated surfaces and allow them to sit and break down the tough stains. Then, once the chemicals are done their job, they are gently rinsed away with water pressure that is less than 500 PSI. To lower the water pressure, professionals use a wider spray tip. This allows for a thorough cleaning job that is safe for fragile home surfaces.
What Surfaces Can You Pressure Wash?
So, you might be wondering what surfaces can you pressure wash. Hard, porous material like concrete, brick, and stone walkways and driveways require powerful cleaning to fully remove grime, oil, and organisms from the surface. When it comes to driveways and walkways, it's important to keep them clean as they are typically the first thing people notice when looking at your home. Dirty walkways and pavement can have a significant impact on your property's overall curb appeal, so it's vital to regularly maintain these surfaces. If not cleaned routinely, the oil and contaminants that build up on your driveway and walkway can also create a slipping hazard when they are wet.
When to Soft Wash
You need to be careful not to damage more fragile surfaces like stucco, outdoor wood furniture, shingle roofs, or cedar shake, vinyl, and wood panel siding. High water pressure could create cracks and dents in your home's exterior and siding, loosen and deteriorate roof shingles, or cause splintering on wood surfaces. These could lead to expensive repairs later on.
When you soft wash, you not only eliminate the dirt and grime but you also sanitize the surfaces with chemicals. This keeps your home clean for a longer period of time. Surfaces like shingles, siding, and wood decks can be soft washed every 1-3 years depending on how porous the material is and the amount of foot traffic and/or exposure they have to the elements. Wood, for example, likely needs to be cleaned more often than siding does as it is more porous and can trap dirt and contaminants.
Why Hire Professional Cleaning Services?
While it's true that you can handle these jobs on your own, it requires thorough research to make sure you're using the right techniques and equipment. DIY projects can also be dangerous for you and your family or pets. If you don't have the necessary experience, you can accidentally harm yourself or others around you, especially if you're dealing with more difficult jobs like roof cleaning. Let Seven Brothers Pressure Washing take care of you! We have the experience and equipment needed to get the job done efficiently with zero damage to your property. Our contractors are licensed and fully insured for a variety of jobs including gutter, window, driveway, siding, soffit, and patio cleaning and even exterior painting! Call us today.

Throw Them Bones!
How To Play
Craps is one of Hollywood's favourite games and The Hippodrome has the only table left in London, found in Lola's Underground Casino. To begin the action, place a bet on "Pass Line" or "Don't Pass Line" to receive 2 Dice. You are now the Shooter! Other players at the table may choose to back your roll, giving a fun team element to the game. Bets are paid based on the total of the 2 dice after you throw them. You must start the game by throwing to set yourself a target, or "Point". This is called the Come-Out Roll.
If you are playing the Pass Line, at this stage you will win even money if a 7 or 11 (known as the Naturals) is rolled. If a 2,3 or 12 (these are called the Craps) is rolled you will lose. Any other number rolled will become your Point. Once a Point has been established you must roll that number again before a 7 is rolled to win. If a 7 is rolled before the Point is made Pass Line bets lose and the dice are offered to the next shooter.
If you are playing the Don't Pass Line, you back the house and require the opposite of the above to win.
These are the rules for the basic game of Craps. There are also numerous side bets on offer at the table. You can bet on other numbers to be rolled, not just the Point, before a 7 is rolled. Exact combination bets are also available. We offer double odds on all points.
Our talented Dice Crew will be happy to teach you the game. We also have 'How to Play' leaflets which go into a little more depth about the odds at the table.

Jeremiah 29:11 – God's Got It!
"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." (NLT)
I really like the message bible version which says… "I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for."
So whatever you are going through today, don't fret and don't worry. God knows what He is doing, He holds your future. And trust me, He is the BEST one to hold it!

Paris Saint-Germain lost a great chance to be in the first place of Group A after being defeated 2-1 by Manchester City for the fifth day of the Champions League. Given this, Mauricio Pochettino he analyzed the performance of his team and was annoyed by the result obtained in England.
"Yes, I'm disappointed since —in the first half— City played very well and they forced us to go back. They were very offensive. Then in the second half we scored and we were controlling the game well. Then the City changed and they made us two", Explained Pochettino in a press conference.
Likewise, the Argentine coach stressed that, despite the defeat, his team could qualify for the next round and that the difference was in Germany. "Manchester City has a lot of merit, they are a great team. For us, the important thing was to qualify. We beat City in the Parc des Princes and we lost here. The difference is that we tied with Leipzig and that's why we finished second"He added.
Finally, when asked about the rumors that linked him to Manchester United, the former Tottenham coach discarded any link. "I am not the one who generates rumors. Since I was little I have played soccer and as a coach I have been for many years. I know rumors are sometimes positive, sometimes negative and, well, it only remains to manage all those things. We are focused on doing the best for our team", He specified.

15 Things To Consider Before Traveling To The Maldives
The Maldives has always been touted as a bucket list/ dream destination. And while that can be true if you decide to take the super over-the-top luxury approach to traveling there, it can also be an affordable place to visit if you want it to be.
We often see the photos of the overwater bungalows or even underwater restaurants, but what else do you know about the country? There's so much more to The Maldives than some social media pages present, and we want to equip you with some tips and facts before you begin your planning to the breathtaking destination.
So, if The Maldives is on your list, or you have plans for a do-over, here are some things to consider before you head out.
1. Most resorts are on private islands
View this post on Instagram
All the photos you see of the overwater villas and bungalows are actually private islands that the hotel brands develop on their own. These islands were solely built up to host travelers and guests, and most times locals/natives do not live on the islands.
2. It's a Muslim country so there are rules
The primary religion in the country is Islam. Because of this, there are certain rules that apply on the non-private islands. One of the main ones being that alcohol is not sold or consumed in areas where locals live.
Also, on the local islands, there are designated areas for showing skin aka 'Bikini beach'. Otherwise, you'll be expected to cover up/ dress modest.
3. Tourism on local islands is fairly still new
View this post on Instagram
Less than a decade ago, the government ruled that local islands could begin development for tourism. What this means for travelers is many of the hotels are new and modern. Also, properties are being added every year.
One of the more popular local islands for tourists to stay on is Maafushi.
4. US flights have been kinda cheap lately
In the past, depending on where you fly from, flights to the Maldives have been over $1,000. This has kept many US travelers from getting to the country.
But over the last year, mostly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, flight prices from major cities like NYC and even DC have been hovering in the $600-$700 range on Emirates, which is one of the world's best airlines.
5. You can buy day passes to see overwater bungalows
View this post on Instagram
Staying on a local island has its perks. Instead of shelling out the $400+ a night on the rooms, you can buy a day pass from your local island hotel for as low as $90 to visit the private islands.
This means, you'll spend the whole day taking all the photos you want, as well as eating and drinking on the private island. Yes, that's all included as part of the 'excursion.'
6. About the underwater restaurants...
View this post on Instagram
Who doesn't want to experience a world-class dinner surrounded by marine life in their natural habitat? But, all great things do have some downsides, but these aren't dealbreakers.
At Ithaa Underwater Restaurant, one of the more popular ones, you will have to dine barefoot. So, if you don't like the sight of feet, you may want to pass.
Also, the dinners typically start at $200+ per person. But, it's expected to be pricey.
7. The weather is unpredictable
View this post on Instagram
It's unlikely you'll ever encounter snow in the Maldives, but rain showers are very possible. And like most tropical places, the rain can be very unpredictable. Just plan accordingly.
8. Transportation between islands...
View this post on Instagram
It's a country full of islands, so naturally there's water everywhere. This means that in order to get from island to island, you'll either need to take a boat or a seaplane.
Private island resorts will arrange their own transportation, and it can be expensive. However, the local ferry will take you to the local islands for around $25 each way. It's also what locals use.
9. The main island in Male
View this post on Instagram
When booking flights, be sure to type in Male as the city. This is where the country's airport is located. There isn't much more on the main island though.
10. There are technically over 1,200 islands in the country
View this post on Instagram
Yes, you read that right. However, only about 200 of them have been developed to receive people.
11. Once you're on a private island, you're kinda stuck
View this post on Instagram
Being on a private island is super dope. But, keep in mind that once on your island, there won't be much opportunity to island hop beyond where you are. Many islands are spaced out, and the only time you may leave is for snorkeling and other water excursions. Which even those can be hosted directly on most of the hotel islands.
12. Excursions are cheap on local islands
View this post on Instagram
The average price for an excursion in Maafushi is $25. That can even include a lunch for some sandbank visits.
13. It's not just a honeymoon destination
View this post on Instagram
Don't let the photos fool you. The Maldives is a place for all types of travelers from solo to girls trips— you don't have to just wait to go with your significant other.
14. They accept U.S. dollars
You won't have to worry about exchanging currency. Most of the country excepts US dollars and other major currencies like the pound or Euros in shops and restaurants.
15. The native people are BEAUTIFUL
View this post on Instagram
Once you get there, you'll see what we mean!

The Daily Mail is reporting on the heavily polluted Citarum River in West Java, Indonesia — so polluted, in fact, that "[locals] no longer try to fish. It is more profitable to forage for rubbish they can salvage and trade – plastic bottles, broken chair legs, rubber gloves – risking disease for one or two pounds a week if they are lucky."
Just how polluted could it be? Have a look at the photos.
With over nine million people living nearby, and 500 factories using the shores as a chemical dumping ground, it's no wonder it looks the way it does. Absolutely appalling. [via]

White Horse Dressage nurture true partnership between horse and rider. The goal of our program is to foster happy, willing horses and knowledgeable, compassionate riders. Partnerships of total trust. When this is achieved one feels complete ease with their horse partner and is confident trying anything new.
To help our clients achieve this, we offer instruction in basic through advanced dressage, lunge lessons, caveletti, in-hand and long line work.
Grooming and horse care services available provided by our vet-tech trained barn manager who brings with a wealth of knowledge.
"I started lessons with Petra in 2015 when I had absolutely no riding experience. As an older beginner (age 48 when I started), Petra paired me with gentle school horses. During the first four months of my lessons, Petra put me on a lunge line to carefully introduce me to all three gaits and to build my seat. As I gained more experience and confidence I was given opportunities to ride different horses.
Eventually I acquired my own horse and with Petra's methodical training, my horse was able to perform like never before. These days we work on all sorts of fun lateral work on the ground and under saddle. None of these come quick and easy. The foundation that Petra so patiently built for me helps me bring out the best in my horse. I can ride with confidence and joy every step of the way.
As I learn more about classical dressage riding, I realize that what sets Petra apart from other trainers is her ever gentle approach to both horse and rider. She truly enjoys working with all horses and when you see that big beam from your horse to Petra, you know you've found the right trainer."
"Riding horses had been an unreachable dream for me until I got my first horse a year ago. I assumed my two young boys could ride the horse also, but it turned out my horse was totally green and I struggled with him to the point that I started believing that riding was not for adult beginners like me. Petra understood my frustration and promised that she will try to help me.
I believed in her because I used to watch her rides on her beautiful horses with the care, love and patience that comes from experience and understanding a lot. Petra took me under her wings and has given me much more than she promised.
She is extremely kind and fair to horse and rider; she is confident, positive and supportive at all times, and she can simplify information in an incredible way. From the first lesson, she helped me and my boys build a strong base for our riding education. My horse and I enjoy riding and learning together – we are supple, relaxed and happy. My boys always look forward to their lessons with Petra. They have improved a lot, developing confidence and the joy of learning to ride horses in the proper way, with respect and appreciation for these beautiful creatures. Petra fills her lessons with jewels of wisdom: the most valuable instructions calm, kind, firm and just right. A million thanks to Petra!"

The CBRE real estate firm reports a 64% increase in the availability of premises on Palma's main commercial streetsThe original provincial list.. The crisis has led to the greatest increases being on the Born, Jaume III and Sant Nicolau. Alexandre Rosselló and Sant Miquel are the only streets where availability hasn't risen by more than ten per cent. This is attributable to the fact that shops are more aimed at the local marketIn its ongoing investigation.
There were twelve rental transactions for premises on the main streets last year, whereas there were 22 in 2019. The most were on Unió and Sant Nicolau, where rents are lower.
CBRE says that various arrangements to soften the blow of the crisis have been agreed between tenants and landlordsprince_edward_island. Rent reductions are up to 30%. The firm says that owners are at present receptive to accepting staggered payment of rents for premises that are empty.
The level of investment in Palma's main commercial streets was close to seven million euros last yearChinese vaccines. In 2019 this was 30 million. Nevertheless, CBRE notes that "the Balearics continue to generate interest among investors who are seeking high returns and sustainability of their investments in the medium to long terms"Indoor and outdoor organized gatherings.

Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Areas such as aquaculture, underwater communication, underwater surveillance and monitoring, etc., are currently well-established in the industry. Moreover, seafood and fish are in high demanded on the market, so there is a very strict control of product quality. New technology helps the development of underwater sensors and underwater sensor networks. New sensing systems add new ways to detect issues and gather data. New communication systems allow larger underwater distances with higher data rates. New sensor network structures and topologies allow new methods of underwater surveillance. This Special Issue is focused on collecting the latest applications, advances and challenges in underwater sensor nodes and underwater sensor networks.

Is HyperX RAM good for Ryzen?
You should also check out the Patriot Viper Steel and Crucial Ballistix memory that we sell, as well as the Ryzen RAM that we sell from Corsair. All of this memory is quite good.
Is 512gb RAM overkill?
For use in a personal computer, the answer is yes. A whopping 512 gigabytes of RAM is way more than necessary. These days, 8 GB of RAM is standard on most PCs sold in retail.
How much faster is RAM than HDD?
The primary benefit of using a RAM Disk is the increased speed it provides. As can be seen in the accompanying graph, the speed of a RAM disk can be up to 50 times quicker than that of a hard disk when performing sequential reads and writes, and it can be up to 200 times faster when performing transfers of smaller sizes, such as 4 KB.
Is 2TB RAM overkill?
Two terabytes of RAM is a pitiful amount for data centers. A sufficient amount of memory for supercomputers is two terabytes.
Is HyperX RAM good for Ryzen?
Is 1TB SSD overkill?
It's just a matter of personal opinion, based on things like money and what you want, however using a hybrid storage system allows me to achieve excellent load times. The load times of programs are drastically improved by solid-state drives (SSDs), but the overall result is that the computer is much more responsive. If you often boot up and shut down your computer, you will see this phenomenon more frequently.
Is 1.5 terabytes of RAM overkill?
Isnt it overkill? In a professional workstation such as the 2019 Mac Pro, having 1.5 terabytes of RAM is not an excessive amount of memory to have available for use. If you do not require additional RAM, you may simply make use of the 32 GB of RAM that is included with the standard setup.
Is 4TB SSD overkill?
It is also pointless to have 4 terabytes solid-state drives (SSD) if your computer is not powerful enough to make effective use of the additional storage space. This kind of computer is required in order to justify purchasing a 4TB solid-state drive. Keep in mind that any solid-state drive (SSD) with a capacity more than 512 gigabytes is pretty much unnecessary; instead, you should utilize hard disks for storage and SSDs as transitional drives.
Is 4 terabytes a lot?
The storage capacity of 4 terabytes (TB) may sound like a lot, and for many individuals it actually is. Even if people use more content on mobile devices, that content will still need to be kept on low-cost storage in the cloud composed of HDD arrays. This is the case even if people use more content on mobile devices.
Is HyperX RAM good for Ryzen?
Is 6 TB too much?
If you merely want to store games on your PC, 12 terabytes is a lot of disk space to have. 6 TB is most likely still more than what you require. Between the two options, selecting 6TB is the choice that makes the most sense.
Is a SSD better than a HDD?
In general, solid-state drives (SSDs) are more reliable than hard disk drives (HDDs), which is again a byproduct of SSDs having no moving parts. Because the data can be accessed much more quickly with an SSD, the device will be idle for a greater percentage of the time, which will result in a longer battery life. Because of their moving platters, hard disk drives (HDDs) require more power to start up than solid-state drives (SSDs).
Is 256GB SSD better than 1TB?
Where is the point? Because most individuals now use solid-state drives (SSDs), they are naturally forced to make do with far less storage space. Instead of a 1 terabyte or 2 terabyte hard drive, a laptop computer may ship with either a 128 or 256 gigabyte solid-state drive (SSD). The capacity of a 1 terabyte (TB) hard disk is equivalent to eight times that of a 128 GB solid-state drive (SSD), and four times that of a 256 GB SSD.
Do HDD last longer than SSD?
The conclusion is that solid-state drives (SSDs) have a longer lifespan than hard drives in high-stress, fast-read environments; yet, SSDs are more prone to data errors that are not catastrophic. Regardless of their TBW or DWPD ratings, older SSDs have a greater risk of complete failure. The study that Tech Reports conducted comparing the lifetime of key brands.
Is HyperX RAM good for Ryzen?
Do I need HDD if I have SSD?
You do not need both, but it may be in your best interest to have a solid-state drive (SSD) for your operating system and a hard disk drive (HDD) for your storage drive. If not, you just need one; a hard disk drive (HDD) is less expensive, but it is slower, larger, and more likely to lose data. A solid-state drive (SSD) often has less storage space but offers the same level of speed and is more resistant to shock.
Do I need both SSD and HDD for gaming?
Games that are installed on your solid-state drive (SSD) will load much more quickly than those games that are installed on your hard disk drive (HDD). Installing your games on your solid-state drive (SSD) rather than your hard disk drive (HDD) has a number of benefits to offer. Installing your games on a solid-state drive (SSD), provided you do not lack sufficient storage space, is a decision that makes a lot of sense.
Is HDD good for gaming?
Both HDDs and SSDs are useful storage options for gaming. If your hard drive has sufficient storage space to accommodate all of your games (a single installation of a current game can take anywhere from 20 GB to 180 GB of space) and is fast enough to support the visuals, you shouldn't run into any problems. When it comes to gaming, HDDs do not perform as well as SDDs do in terms of load times.
Is 500GB HDD enough for gaming?
If you want all of your games installed all the time and have a lot of them, you should get a larger hard drive. I would recommend going with 1 terabyte if you also enjoy watching high-definition movies on your PC. Aside from that, 500 GB ought to be sufficient for the typical gamer. However, if you have the financial means to do so, going for a larger size won't cost you that much extra.

BU academic leads group to develop a tool to support decision makers in the use of clean birth kits
29 June 2012
Working with an international group of experts (the Birth Kit Working Group), Professor Vanora Hundley developed a decision support tool to assist policy makers and programme managers making decisions about clean birth.
Every day approximately 800 women worldwide die from causes related to pregnancy or childbirth and many of these women die from conditions that we know how to prevent. Achieving a clean birth requires the application of skills by the care provider and the availability of a few essential supplies. For several decades clean birth kits have been recommended as a means of ensuring those supplies.
Most kits contain a small bar of soap for hand washing, a plastic sheet to serve as the delivery surface, clean string for tying the umbilical cord, a new razor blade for cutting the cord, and pictorial instructions that illustrate the sequence of delivery events. Evidence suggests that as part of a package that includes education, clean birth kits are associated with reductions in newborn mortality and both newborn and maternal sepsis, a condition that occurs when the body has a severe response to bacteria.
The new decision support tool, which utilises available country data, will assist policy makers and programme managers making decisions about using clean birth kits at national and sub-national level. The completed tool is available to download.
Vanora Hundley, Professor of Midwifery in the School of Health and Social Care at BU said: "Preliminary testing with programme managers in Pakistan suggests that the tool is useful in stimulating discussion and in helping decision makers conceptualise how birth kits could be used to strengthen clean birth practices in areas where supply chains are erratic. However, further work is needed to explore how national level evidence can be incorporated into the process and how the tool can be adapted for use in others countries."
It is estimated that if women giving birth at home in less developed countries had access to clean birth practices maternal mortality from infections could be reduced by 20 per cent. In addition, newborn mortality as a result of tetanus could be reduced by 30 per cent.Related Links:

Pak senate panel blames India, PM Modi for 'plans to increase violence' in Balochistan
The Frontier Corps of Balochistan, a part of the federal paramilitary forces of Pakistan, has alleged that "enemies" of the country have plans to increase the level of violence in the province. According to Pakistan-based Dawn News, the Inspector General of the Balochistan Frontier Corps, Major General Nadeem Anjum, told a senate panel that the move by the "enemies" was aimed at compelling United Nations intervention to declare Balochistan an independent state.
While speaking about the issue before the panel, the Inspector General alleged that though a lot of developmental works was being carried out by Pakistani authorities in Balochistan, "the foreign media use Bollywood and Hollywood movies and claim it (terrorism) is going on in Balochistan".
Equating the situation with that in countries like Libya and Yemen, the Inspector General alleged that efforts were being made to create unrest across Balochistan, pointing that earlier there was disturbance in just parts of the province.
The chairman of Senate panel, Rehman Malik, used the opportunity to target Prime Minister Narendra Modi and India over the issue. According to Malik, the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) and Afghan intelligence agency were carrying out "terrorist activities" in Balochistan, said the Dawn News reports.
Malik further alleged that Prime Minister Modi had himself admitted to the involvement of Indian government in Balochistan.

A unique anthology of all-new stories that challenges authors to throw down the gauntlet in an epic genre battle and demands an answer to the age-old question: Who is more awesome--robots or fairies?
Rampaging robots! Tricksy fairies! Facing off for the first time in an epic genre death match!
People love pitting two awesome things against each other. Robots vs. Fairies is an anthology that pitches genre against genre, science fiction against fantasy, through an epic battle of two icons.
On one side, robots continue to be the classic sci-fi phenomenon in literature and media, from Asimov to WALL-E, from Philip K. Dick to Terminator. On the other, fairies are the beloved icons and unquestionable rulers of fantastic fiction, from Tinkerbell to Tam Lin, from True Blood to Once Upon a Time. Both have proven to be infinitely fun, flexible, and challenging. But when you pit them against each other, which side will triumph as the greatest genre symbol of all time?
There can only be one... or can there?
Featuring an incredible line-up of authors including John Scalzi, Catherynne M. Valente, Ken Liu, Max Gladstone, Alyssa Wong, Jonathan Maberry, and many more, Robots vs. Fairies will take you on a glitterbombed journey of a techno-fantasy mash-up across genres.

CANNON BALL, N.D. (AP) The Standing Rock Sioux has set up a camp in North Dakota to protest a planned pipeline to carry crude from the Bakken oil fields to Illinois over concerns that a spill would impact the tribe's drinking water.
The "spirit camp" at the confluence of the Cannonball and Missouri rivers has been occupied for two weeks, with people coming and going in peaceful protest, The Bismarck Tribune reported (http://bit.ly/1SGbb8S ). There is no scheduled end date.
People at the camp are sleeping in shelters, eating donated food and spending their days in contemplation, conversation and prayer. Willow frames for sweat lodges and a colorful prayer post stand beside the camp, along with tribal flags.
The camp is modeled after one occupied for months by residents of South Dakota's Rosebud Indian Reservation to protest the proposed Keystone XL pipeline that ultimately was rejected by President Barack Obama.
The proposed $3.8 billion, 1,130-mile Dakota Access pipeline by Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners would pass through North Dakota, South Dakota and Iowa on its way to Illinois. Regulators in all states have approved the project, but it still needs federal approval. The Environmental Protection Agency and two other federal agencies recently asked the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to more carefully review the pipeline, saying the corps should pay closer attention to the impact a spill would have on drinking water for Native American tribes.
Standing Rock Sioux leaders also have asked the federal government for more environmental studies.
"We will stop it. We have prayer with us," said LaDonna Brave Bull Allard, a tribal historian and preservation employee who provided family land for the protest camp. "We are not expendable."
Energy Transfer Partners maintains the pipeline will be a safe and cost-effective way to transport oil, and will create jobs and boost the economy.

This multi-level underground city (has up to 18 levels) could accommodate approximately 20 000 people. Derinkuyu is a really huge complex containing living quarters, temples, schools, shops, storage rooms, stables, etc. It has at least 15 000 ventilation shafts and underground water well system providing inhabitants with the fresh air and fresh water. The underground city could be closed from the inside with the large rolling stone doors. Each floor could be closed off separately.
After Derinkuyu explore Ihlara valley and Melendiz river. Ihlara valley is a 14 km long gorge made of the same soft volcanic rock found throughout the Cappadocia. It was formed thousands of years ago because of volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and erosion. Ihlara Valley was one of the first areas settled by early Christians and there are hundreds of churches carved into the walls of gorge. Indescribable gorgeousness, pure nature and historical significance of the canyon make it one of the most popular destinations for trekking in Cappadocia. This tour includes 4 km hiking through the Ihlara Valley along the Melendiz river. Walk through the vineyards and pistachio trees, enjoy relaxing sounds of flowing water and all the way observe the rich fauna of an area (butterflies, frogs, lizards, birds, etc.). After hiking be ready for a delicious lunch at a restaurant over Melendiz river. Enjoy traditional Turkish foods cooked by the locals.
The last place to visit is Selime Monastery, amazing huge fairy chimney. It is the biggest religious building in Cappadocia dating back to the 13th century. Selime monastery is a must-see place while you are in Cappadocia because of its size and interesting structure. Inside the monastery there is a cathedral-size church with amazing paintings, also living quarters, a large kitchen, numerous storages, a stable, a missionary school, etc. Selime monastery could accommodate about 5000 people at the same time. After exploring this great place the tour finishes and you will drive back to the hotel.

It should be added that Bacon9) has made experiments with the object of extracting ylang-ylang oil with various volatile solvents and that he obtained the best results with petroleum ether. The yield varied between 0,7 and 1 p.c. A rather dark oil containing considerable resin resulted. Undiluted, it did not have an extraordinarily pleasant or strong odor, but when greatly diluted the floral odor became very marked. The constants of this oil were: d30/4o0,940; nD30o1,4920; E.V. 135; E.V. after ace-tylation 208. It will be seen that these properties agree with those of first class oils. The somewhat different odor of the extracted oil (which is said to have the advantage that it cannot be reproduced synthetically and, therefore, should fetch a higher price) is attributed to the presence of small amounts of unknown constituents that are readily decomposed by heat. If the extracted oil be shaken with water fairly considerable amounts of resin are separated which have the characteristic odor of the flowers, whereas the odor of this oil itself then reminds of that of p-cresol methyl ether.

As already pointed out, the name cananga oil is applied both to higher fractions which are obtained as a by-product in the distillation of cananga oil (Manila), and to the total distillate of the flowers (Java). Hence it will be readily understood that the properties of the oil vary even more than those of the ylang-ylang oil: d15o 0,906 to 0,950; aD - 17 to - 55°; nD20o1,495 to 1,510; A.V. up to 2,0; E.V. 10 to 35. In 90 p.c. alcohol most of the cananga oils are not completely soluble: in 95 p.c. alcohol they dissolve-at first, but the addition of more than 1 to 2 vol. commonly produces turbidity.
In connection with 36 samples of second grade ylang-ylang oils from Manila, Bacon1) observed the following constants: d30/4o0,896 to 0,942; aD80. - 27,4 to - 87°; nD80.1,4788 to 1,5082; E.V. 42 to 94; E.V. after acetylation 96 to 141. Dried cananga flowers from Samoa2), which are known as Mosoi, yielded upon distillation 1 p.c. of oil, which, while it differed as to odor from the oil distilled from fresh flowers, nevertheless had the same general character. Like the ordinary cananga oil it contained benzoic acid: d15o0,922.
•1) Loc. at.
2) Report of Schimmel & Co. October 1890, 60.
The distillate varies according to whether "green" (not fully developed) or yellow (fully developed) flowers are used. Experiments along this line were conducted in the municipal pharmacy in Samarang1).
1. Oil from green flowers: d15o0,930; aD - 19°21'; S.V.24,31; insoluble in 10 vol. of 95 p.c. alcohol.
2. Oil from yellow flowers: d15o0,956; aD - 25°11'. Solubility same as under 1. It contained 12 p.c. eugenol.
Oil from Bangkok2). Distilled from fresh and dried flowers: d15o0,920; aD - 51°40'; nD80o1,50510; A. V. 1,82; E.V. 34,17. Oil from the Seychelles3): d15o0,954; aD - 43° 10'.
Adulteration. Adulteration with cocoa-nut fat has been observed repeatedly in connection with cananga oil4). Such an addition is readily recognized. While both specific gravity and optical rotation are influenced but little, the saponification value is greatly increased and the oil is no longer soluble in 95 p.c. alcohol. Cocoa-nut fat can also be recognized readily by placing a sample of the questionable oil into a freezing mixture of ice and salt. Whereas the pure oil remains liquid, an oil to which much cocoa-nut fat has been added congeals to a butyraceous mass.
Smaller amounts of fat, also fatty oils that do not congeal in the cold, remain in the residue when the oil is distilled with steam and can thus be detected. It should be noted, however, that even unadulterated oils leave a residue of up to 5 p.c. when distilled with water vapor. Hence, in an approximately quantitative determination of the added fat or oil 5 p.c. should be deducted from the amount of residue found. Comp. also vol. I, p. 613.
Among other adulterants occasionally employed in the Philippines, Bacon mentions turpentine oil, alcohol and petroleum.
For this purpose the turpentine oil is sprinkled over the flowers and distilled along with them. Inasmuch as pinene is a normal though minor constituent, the detection of such an adulteration, when practised moderately, is scarcely possible. Moreover, the presence of terpenes in ylang-ylang oil may be due to the utilization of immature flowers. In 100 cc. of an oil that had been distilled from good flowers, Bacon could not detect pinene or other terpenes. The distillation of imperfectly developed flowers, however, yielded an oil the odor of which resembled that of turpentine and bananas and which, without doubt, contained terpenes. A turpentine oil that had been obtained for the purpose of adulterating ylang-ylang oil revealed itself as a carefully purified dextrogyrate product to which a trace of peppermint oil had been added. The addition of appreciable amounts of turpentine oil imparts a pungent odor to ylang-ylang oil. In addition the specific gravity, optical rotation and index of refraction are lowered. If upon fractionation of 100 cc. of oil under 10 mm. pressure more than 1 cc. passes over below 65°, the addition of turpentine oil or some other low boiling substance may be assumed. The identification of pinene is accomplished in the usual manner by means of its nitrosochloride.

Physiological Action. P. Kettenhofen1), who has investigated the action of ylang-ylang oil on micro-organisms, on the white blood corpuscles, upon cold-blooded and warm-blooded animals, its influence on the amplitude of respiration and on the blood pressure, also its action during normal and stimulated irritability, has arrived at the following conclusions. Ylang-ylang oil harms or kills micro-organisms and prevents decay and fermentation as a result of its paralysing action on the protoplasm of organisms of putrefraction and decay. Toward the white blood corpuscles it exerts an analogous action; the corpuscles are paralysed and are prevented from leaving the blood vessels, thus suppressing any incipient suppuration. In the organism of cold-blooded animals, ylang-ylang oil produces, even in small doses, a general paralysis, which results in death when the dose is increased. In warm-blooded animals a temporary diminution of the functions results, however, without appreciable detriment to the organism. The frequency of pulse and breathing are diminished, both breathing and blood pressure become fainter. The animals show a somewhat apathetic behavior. If the reflex activities be stimulated by cramp poisons, they are moderated by ylang-ylang oil and the cramps cease. If inferences from these results be drawn with regard to man, Kettenhofen assumes that with moderate doses, aside from the symptoms mentioned above, no serious illness will be caused. The normal reflex activity is at first diminished and, with sufficiently large doses, ceases altogether.

In the treatment of malaria it might be applied as a substitute for quinine wherever this is incompatible or cannot be administered for other specific reasons.
Production and Commerce. According to the official U. S. A. statistics, the values of ylang-ylang oil exported from Manila are as follows1):
103789 £
103247 "
100349 "
1905........... ...........................................
93918 "
1906 ............................................... ....

181 638 "
According to English consular reports, the export diminished during the following years until the normal had been reached. The quantities by weight recorded in the American statistics for ylang-ylang oil are gross weights, hence are misleading, since in the case of ylang-ylang oil the net weight is about one tenth of the gross weight.
According to French statistics the following amounts were exported from Reunion: -

Scarlett Johansson sues Disney over streaming release of Black Widow: Marvel star claims she lost out on $50M because her pay was based on box office haul ONLY
Black Widow star Scarlett Johansson is suing Disney, claiming the movie's simultaneous release as a streamer breached her contract. Johansson, 36, alleges that she lost out of more than $50million as a result of the film being released on streaming service Disney+ at the same time as its debut in theaters, according to The Wall Street Journal. The actress filed the lawsuit on Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court against Disney, claiming she had been guaranteed that Black Widow would have an exclusive theatrical release, and that the bulk of her salary was based on the box office performance. Johansson is estimated to have made around $15 million in advance for Black Widow, the same as her reported fee for for Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, but says in the suit that the streaming release cut into her lucrative bonuses. 'Disney intentionally induced Marvel's breach of the agreement, without justification, in order to prevent Ms. Johansson from realizing t

A researcher for Swiss security firm Modzero reports a program with keylogger-like features has been recording keystrokes on several HP laptops. The keylogger activity documented user keystrokes, then entered the information into a log file.
Modzero found keylogger activity in the Conexant HD audio driver package found on multiple HP business and enterprise laptop devices, including Elitebook, Probook and ZBook models, but it's unknown at this time if consumer laptops are also affected.
Modzero explains the application monitors "all keystrokes made by the user to capture and react to functions such as microphone mute/unmute keys/hotkey." Once keystrokes are captured, they're entered into an unencrypted log file, but if they are not entered into a log file, there's a chance of malware taking advantage of this application.
To uninstall this application, Modzero recommends deleting the "MicTray64.exe" application. HP and Conexant have not released a statement regarding the issue.

COVID-19 Re-Entry Plan
After continued prayer and consultation, the KYUMC Re-Entry Task Force understands that we continue to be in a time of active pandemic and our team does not believe we are ready to move forward with entry into Phase III at this time.
On Aug. 1st, you will hear further communication from the Re-Entry Team that will update our recommendations below based on current government guidelines and current infection rates.
There are now additional Guidelines for Phase II from the Re-Entry Task Force. You will find them on the Phase II web page.
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Let me first commend you for your patience and faithfulness during this difficult and painful season of COVID-19. As shepherds of God's flock, you have been diligent in proclaiming the Word and caring for your communities of faith in amazing and extraordinary ways. We will continue to need your holy imaginations and creative spiritual actions in the days ahead. Therefore, I pray that all the new things God has taught, and continues to teach us through this pandemic, will not stop because we are now readying ourselves to resume in-person worship.
I am indeed grateful for the Kentucky Annual Conference's task force, which has faithfully worked to shape ways of honoring God through re-entry, while still protecting the most vulnerable of society against COVID-19. Below you will find guidelines in phases that we feel will give us the best chance to care for one another without causing more pain, suffering, or death. These phases are:
- Phase I - Preparing Facilities and Congregational Members for Re-Entry
- Phase II - Re-Entry into Facilities and Worship
- Phase III - Sustaining Safe Facilities and Health of Congregational Members
As you prepare to resume in-person worship, know that you should feel no sense of pressure to resume on May 20th or 24th. Set your own time-line for reopening, taking into consideration both the recommendations of our task force and forthcoming guidelines from the governor's office. Also, use the phases we are providing to create that time-line for resumption of in-person worship and ministry. At the very least, it is important that you have fulfilled the guidelines for Phase I before reopening. Phase II is also included with this document. The task force will share Phase III in the near future.
I have asked the task force to stay together because, even though we will be able to start in-person worship, nothing about it will be normal for the foreseeable future. This team will also remain intact to make sure we do not lose the creativity, energy, and spiritual momentum God has blessed us with in our willingness to try new things.
Along with the guidelines, below are the names of the task force team members who have given their time and energy to help us live into the Three Simple Rules that John Wesley laid out as a set of real-world guidelines to help us apply our faith to our everyday lives. The rules, a tangible way to live out our faith as we continue to navigate this pandemic, are:
- Do no harm.
- Do good.
- Stay in love with God.
I believe God is birthing something new out of our suffering. We are, after all, Easter people. Again, thank you for your patience and faithfulness as we move forward with care, prayer, and guidance from the Hol–y Spirit. Please know that my prayers and love are with you now and in all the days ahead.
In Christ,
Bishop Fairley
Re-Entry Task Force Team Members:
Rev. Dr. Eric Bryant, Director New Church Development
Kathy Bryant, RN-BC, BSN, Norton Healthcare Faith & Health Ministries
Rev. Patty Groot, Bridge Pastor, Christ Church United Methodist
Rev. William Moore, Director of Connectional Ministries

Rev. James Williams, Lead Pastor Centenary UMC, Lexington
Kentucky Conference of the United Methodist Church
COVID-19 Re-Entry Task Force
To support Kentucky United Methodist congregations and clergy, the KYUMC COVID-19 Re-Entry Task Force has approached re-entry decisions prayerfully and collaboratively. Because we know evidence and science has determined that large gatherings are the most dangerous venues for community-wide viral outbreaks, the following recommendations are offered as a way for pastors and church leaders to discuss plans for each phase of re-entry and communicate decisions to the local congregation. The Re-Entry Task Force has attempted to follow state and federal guidelines with the understanding that regional outbreaks, local church preparedness and other factors will mandate varied and flexible time-frames for reopening. We also realize that each congregation serves in a different context and will need to make decisions based on specific local executive orders. Based on many variables, we fully anticipate re-entry may occur at different times in different places. Regardless of the local situation the Re-Entry Task Force recommends that utilization of church facilities and in-person worship occur in three distinct phases.
- Phase I - Preparing Facilities and Congregational Members for Re-Entry
- Phase II - Re-Entry into Facilities and Worship
- Phase III - Sustaining Safe Facilities and Health of Congregational Members
Furthermore, because the COVID-19 pandemic is evolving and to assist congregations with changes or updates the following will occur:
- In consultation with the Bishop, Cabinet and Conference representatives, the Re-Entry Task Force will continue to meet and make recommendations.
- A KYUMC Conference COVID-19 web page will be established for all communications and important helpful information for clergy and churches. The COVID-19 web page will also include a "questions" tab so that clergy and churches may submit questions. A member of the Re-Entry Task Force will respond to questions.
- A network of health ministry nurses and health experts is being established to assist at the regional (district) level during the re-entry and ongoing phases.
COVID-19 is a respiratory disease transmitted by inhaling droplets from infected persons. While COVID-19 is a very different illness than the flu, it similarly is transmitted through droplets. Droplets can rest with active viruses on durable surfaces for hours or days, depending on the surface and environment.
In short, the concerns are:
- Immediate vicinity of COVID-19 infected persons where droplets from coughs or sneezes or breath can be inhaled by other people.
- Droplets from sneezes or coughs from infected persons on surfaces.
Current symptoms of COVID-19 can be found on the CDC website:
Throughout all Phases of Re-Entry, the following is recommended for clergy and congregations.
- Be Informed - keep up to date on executive orders given by state and local officials.
- Practice good hand hygiene (wash hands or use 60% alcohol based hand sanitizer).
- Stay at home if you are not feeling well. This includes pastors, church staff and volunteers.
- Maintain recommended social distancing (6 feet) at all times in all places.
- Wear masks as recommended by local and state guidance.
- Limit face to face meetings, continue teleworking/meeting when possible.
- Establish an effective and timely communication plan for all congregational members.
Do No Harm - We care about our vulnerable populations.
As we re-enter our church facilities and worship spaces, we must make decisions and communicate clearly with our most vulnerable populations in mind. These are people most susceptible and most at risk to COVID-19 and it is fully anticipated they will want to continue to worship online. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) defines vulnerable populations as:
- Individuals over 65
- Individuals with serious underlying health conditions, including high blood pressure, chronic lung disease, diabetes, obesity, and asthma
- Individuals whose immune system is compromised (E.g. cancer, chemo and radiation therapy)
Please keep in mind the following: Just because we can reopen does not mean every church facility is ready to reopen. Churches should prayerfully discern the safest time for their congregation to re-enter church facilities and host worship services.
The tabs below will lead you to further explanation of the three Phases of the Re-Entry Plan.

Excellent. Got samples quickly. Dishwasher cover looks great. Easy to trim and install.
Actually unable to review
To be honest, I don't know how well it works, other than to say it appears the magnetic adhesion will work fine. Just after receiving it, my husband ordered all new black stainless appliances, so I will not be cutting and applying the dishwasher cover. It looks like it will work fine, but I was a little apprehensive about cutting it correctly. Since it is not returnable, it will be included when we donate our approximately 5-year old stainless dishwasher to charity.
I bought the black skin for my dishwasher to match my oven, microwave and new refrigerator until the dishwasher needs to be replaced. It fits perfectly. It is a nice thick piece of material and stays attached. You can't tell that it's vinyl. Do not hesitate to buy it!
It is super easy and customer service is awesome
