text: Cities With the Most Michelin-Starred RestaurantsFoodies flock to these cities filled with award-winning cuisine.Which Cities Have the Most Michelin Stars?If you're a foodie at heart, it only makes sense that you would plan your travels around cities with some of the most exquisite restaurants in the world. One way to organize your trip? Rely on the respectable Michelin Guide.A leading voice in the world of fine dining, Michelin bestows its coveted stars upon a select few establishments with the most outstanding cuisine, service and ambience in the world. The distinctions are one star (high-quality cuisine that's worth a stop), two stars (excellent cooking, worth a detour) and three stars (exceptional cuisine worth a special trip). So who has the most Michelin stars? These are the top 21 cities for dining. No. 1 should be on the bucket list of any traveler with a passion for haute cuisine.21. Brussels, Belgium (Tie)One-star restaurants: 11 Two-star restaurants: 4Three-star restaurants: 0Total stars: 15*Note: All numbers are based on the Michelin Guide 2021.Michelin Restaurants in BrusselsThough Michelin hasn't awarded the prestigious third star to any Brussels restaurants this year, that doesn't mean you should sleep on Belgium's capital city, which has earned a total of 15 Michelin stars.One of Brussels' four two-star restaurants is Bon-Bon, located in a beautiful house in a tree-lined residential neighborhood on the southeast edge of the city. The walls of Bon-Bon are tastefully covered with pieces created by artist Jean-Francois D'Or, with innovative menus ranging from $88 to $280."I dream up my recipes by bringing ideas together and drawing on the vicissitudes of life, playing with all the permutations and turning them upside down," Bon-Bon chef Christophe Hardiquest has said.21. Macau (Tie)One-star restaurants: 7Two-star restaurants: 5Three-star restaurants: 3Total stars: 15Michelin Restaurants in MacauAcross the South China Sea from Hong Kong you'll find Macau, which is often referred to as the "Las Vegas of China." Be that as it may, Macau also has some incredible restaurants, with a total of 15 Michelin stars.Located inside the Grand Lisboa Hotel is The 8 Restaurant, one of the city's three-star venues. The 8 provides an intimate setting for tasting Cantonese cuisine, including more than 40 kinds of dim sum at lunch and dinner entrees ranging from stir-fried lobster to roasted pork belly with shredded jellyfish.While you're dining, you'll have a chance to relax in the luxuriant dining room, decorated by famed Hong Kong designer Alan Chan. His design approach centers on the number eight, which represents wealth, and the goldfish, which represents energy.19. Rome (Tie)One-star restaurants: 14Two-star restaurants: 1Three-star restaurants: 1Total stars: 16Michelin Restaurants in RomeIs it possible to have a bad meal in Rome? Probably, but you'd be unlucky to find it. Still, even in the Italian capital, some restaurants reign supreme. And if you want fine dining, one wears the undisputed crown: La Pergola.La Pergola is located inside the Rome Cavalieri, a Waldorf Astoria hotel. Everything in the restaurant exudes exclusivity. The view of the city is unparalleled, the interior is adorned with pieces such as an 18th-century candelabra and hand-blown glass by Emile Gallé, and dishes are served on Sèvres porcelain. The menu is impeccable, but it is somewhat overshadowed by the 70,000 bottles-wine cellar and the 45 types of waters you can choose from.19. Zurich (Tie)=One-star restaurants: 12Two-star restaurants: 4Three-star restaurants: 0Total stars: 16Michelin Restaurants in ZurichZurich is simultaneously one of Europe's most livable cities and one of its most underrated destinations.With 16 Michelin restaurants, you have plenty of options for fine dining in Switzerland's capital of the hip and young. For a classic French cuisine experience, head to Pavillon. But if you want a restaurant that fully embodies the spirit of Zurich,, go to Rico's instead.Fun, modern and experimental, Rico's is located inside a beautiful historic building. The contrast perfectly summarizes the city itself, whose medieval core hides artist's studios, student projects and dance clubs.18. Lyon, FranceOne-star restaurants: 14Two-star restaurants: 3Three-star restaurants: 0Total stars: 17Michelin Restaurants in LyonLyon is often called the gastronomical capital of France, with regional food like chicken liver tart, and is believed to represent the best of French gastronomy. Two of the three two-star establishments in the city — Le Neuvième Art and Takao Takano — offer creative modern cuisine. And while they're definitely deserving of their accolades, we would recommend Mère Brazier for its focus on traditional French and Lyonnaise cuisine.In true French fashion, ingredients are fresh and local.17. Barcelona, SpainOne-star restaurants: 11Two-star restaurants: 6Three-star restaurants: 2Total stars: 19Michelin Restaurants in BarcelonaIf you're planning a trip to Spain, you'll want to venture into Barcelona for a few hours — or at least for dinner — so you can visit one of the many restaurants to earn Michelin stars (19 in total!).At the top of the Barcelona food scene are Lasarte and ABaC. Lasarte first earned its third Michelin star in 2017. The restaurant, which was recently renovated, is located on Barcelona's popular Paseo de Gracia. On the tasting menu, you'll find dishes like wagyu and glazed eel ravioli, squid tartare and crayfish and ginger.ABaC is even newer to the three-star club, having first earned its third Michelin star in 2018. Chef Jordi Cruz is at the helm of this contemporary restaurant, which offers a traditional and an avant-garde tasting menu, depending on your preferences.16. Chicago, IllinoisOne-star restaurants: 15Two-star restaurants: 4Three-star restaurants: 1Total stars: 20Michelin Restaurants in ChicagoThe Windy City doesn't mess around when it comes to food, earning an impressive 20 total Michelin stars.When you're done visiting the Bean and the Magnificent Mile, consider treating yourself to dinner at three-star restaurant Alinea, which has held that distinction for over ten years. Best known for its helium-filled, green apple dessert balloon (complete with edible "string"), Alinea intrigues diners with its playful approach to food in the city's popular Lincoln Park neighborhood.Led by chef Grant Achatz, Alinea's tasting menu often includes a trip to the kitchen to see where the magic happens.15. Madrid, SpainOne-star restaurants: 15Two-star restaurants: 5Three-star restaurants: 1Total stars: 21Michelin Restaurants in MadridSpain has some of the best food in Europe — and, let's be honest, the world. Of course, its incredible capital would have over 20 Michelin starred restaurants. Madrid's sole three-star restaurant, DiverXo, is described by Michelin critics as "pure hedonism!" and makes it a point to make fun of itself by being purposefully basic. For instance, it serves some of its dishes on wrapping paper that has "xo" printed all over it, as a wink to both its name and the "Gossip Girl"-y "xo xo," which in text language means "hugs and kisses." DiverXo clearly likes to joke about its image, adding pictures of punks, clowns and Voldermort-esque villains on its website rather than the typical images of beautiful-looking dishes. Still, the restaurant very much does care about its image, un-ironically calling videos of its artistically staged meals "canvases."This contradiction between an "Emily in Paris" self-proclaimed basicness and a hipster unawareness of the parody it becomes of itself is actually part of the DiverXo experience. That and the delivery of delectable dishes is what brings people to the restaurant.13. Berlin, Germany (Tie)One-star restaurants: 17Two-star restaurants: 5Three-star restaurants: 1Total stars: 23Michelin Restaurants in BerlinYou'll only find one three-star restaurant in this historic German city, but there is plenty of top-notch food to sample during your stay. In total, Berlin has 23 Michelin-starred restaurants.Michelin's anonymous reviewers enjoyed their time at Restaurant Tim Raue, one of five two-star restaurants, where you'll find dishes like wasabi langoustine, miso duck liver and Wagyu beef chili.The city's sole three-star restaurant, Rutz, also has a Michelin Green Star, which recognizes sustainable gastronomy. Its simple, modern interior is the perfect setting for the complex yet puristic menu. You have set menus of six or eight "experiences" rather than courses, and they include dishes like "a childhood," made with memory bean, cabbage and pork.13. Washington, D.C. (Tie)One-star restaurants: 19Two-star restaurants: 3Three-star restaurants: 1Total stars: 23Michelin Restaurants in Washington, D.C.Despite being a meeting point for people from all over the world who come for business, temporary government jobs or to take up permanent residency, Washington, D.C., is still not recognized for its culinary offerings. Hopefully, landing at 13th place for the most Michelin restaurants, D.C. will get its due. Diners can choose from 23 restaurants, including Tail Up Goat, a one-star venue that is one of the most affordable Michelin restaurants in the U.S.But if you want the best in the city, try to get a reservation at its only three-star restaurant, The Inn at Little Washington. Though not technically in the city, the restaurant has become legendary in the D.C. dining scene. Michelin critics accurately describe it as resembling "a jewelry box lined with patterned carpets, lush wallpaper, heavy drapes and bejeweled upholstery." The three menus focus on a different experience, from seasonality to experimental cuisine to vegetarianism. 12. Bangkok, ThailandOne-star restaurants: 24Two-star restaurants: 6Three-star restaurants: 0Total stars: 30Michelin Restaurants in BangkokNot too long ago, Bangkok didn't even make it into the top 15 countries with the most Michelin-starred restaurants. In the past few years, the city has burst into the world of fine dining with a dizzying force. You won't find three-starred restaurants, but the handful of two-starred ones will more than satisfy you. We recommend leaving the European-inspired food for later and focusing on the joys of Thai cuisine at R-Haan. The restaurant's menu takes inspiration from various regions of Thailand as well as Royal Cuisine. Food is seasonal and constantly changing, but it's always locally sourced and fresh.11. San Francisco, CaliforniaOne-star restaurants: 21Two-star restaurants: 7Three-star restaurants: 3Total stars: 31Michelin Restaurants in San FranciscoWhen it comes to cities with amazing food, history and outdoor recreation options, San Francisco is pretty hard to beat. In fact, there are a total of 31 Michelin-star restaurants across the San Francisco area.Three restaurants have been awarded the highest praise. Of these, we most highly recommend Atelier Crenn, which sources many of its ingredients from its own regenerative farm. Each dish is impeccably presented and perfectly balanced for a playful contrast of flavors and textures.There are an impressive seven restaurants with two Michelin stars here, the most of any U.S. city. One of those pedigreed spots is Saison, which diners say maintains an unpretentious attitude, despite its many accolades. Chef Joshua Skenes does all of his cooking over an open food fire, sourcing the restaurant's ingredients from many distinct microclimates. 10. Seoul, South KoreaOne-star restaurants: 24Two-star restaurants: 7Three-star restaurants: 2Total stars: 33Michelin Restaurants in SeoulPerhaps unsurprisingly, Korean cuisine is what Seoul does best. Nearly all of the top-rated restaurants in this city offer traditional or contemporary Korean fare. Visitors, not to mention the roughly 10 million people who live in South Korea's capital, have almost three dozen fine dining options to choose from, with restaurants in Seoul earning a collective 33 Michelin stars.At Jungsik, one of Seoul's two-star establishments, the kitchen is led by chef Jungsik Yim, who is widely credited with bringing contemporary Korean cooking to the country. Yim traveled the world to gain culinary experience, training at several top restaurants in New York and Spain before opening Jungsik in 2009. Michelin's judges apparently really love Yim's approach to cooking, as they've also awarded two Michelin stars to the New York version of his restaurant.For a three-star experience, make a reservation at Gaon. Rooted in traditional Korean cuisine, the restaurant's clean and simple aesthetic allows you to focus on the complex flavors of this delicious gastronomy.9. Shanghai, ChinaOne-star restaurants: 37Two-star restaurants: 8Three-star restaurants: 2Total stars: 47Michelin Restaurants in ShanghaiShanghai is another Asian city with an incredible dining scene. The city is home to restaurants that have earned a collective 47 Michelin stars.Chefs in Shanghai are particularly unafraid to take risks. Case in point: Paul Pairet and Greg Robinson at Ultraviolet, which first earned its third Michelin star in 2018.Ultraviolet is more than a restaurant. It's a totally unique experience involving taste, sight, sound, smell and touch. There is space for only 10 diners at the restaurant, which features LED floor strips, lights, projectors, infrared cameras, a surround sound system, air blowers, laser speakers and other technologies.Guests pay from $600 to over $1,000 for this extraordinary mash-up of fine dining and entertainment.8. SingaporeOne-star restaurants: 41Two-star restaurants: 5Three-star restaurants: 3Total stars: 49Michelin Restaurants in SingaporeWidely considered one of the best food cities in the world, Singapore boasts 49 Michelin stars in total.One of Singapore's three-star establishments is Odette, an intimate venue located in Singapore's National Gallery in what used to be the registration room of the Supreme Court. This modern French restaurant is named after chef Julien Royer's grandmother, who taught him how to cook as a child. Royer has integrated other sweet, meaningful touches throughout the dining experience."I remember the long, slow simmering of the red currant jam (Odette) would make, adding vanilla and juniper berries — this perfumed the entire house," he told Post Magazine. "I've kept this memory in my heart for many years, and so it's a small gift we give to diners when they come to Odette — a jar of red currant jam, to show them where I'm coming from."6. London, England (Tie)One-star restaurants: 52Two-star restaurants: 8Three-star restaurants: 5Total stars: 65Michelin Restaurants in LondonGordon Ramsay remains the king of the London restaurant scene, along with chefs Alain Ducasse and Hélène Darroze. All three have earned three Michelin stars for their respective restaurants. All told, London has 65 Michelin stars.If you're curious to see whether Gordon Ramsay's famous bad-tempered rants are justified, head over to Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, where you can't go wrong with the lobster ravioli.But if fame means little to you, we recommend dining at Hélène Darroze at The Connaught, where everything from the menu to the interior to the plates are delicately and minutely executed. Unlike most Michelin-star restaurants in London, this venue does not focus on international food, but rather on the (much-maligned) culinary traditions of the United Kingdom.6. New York City, New York (Tie)One-star restaurants: 48 Two-star restaurants: 12Three-star restaurants: 5 Total stars: 65Michelin Restaurants in New York CityWhen you visit the city that never sleeps, you may find it difficult to choose between the various highly acclaimed restaurants. New York City is home to a total of 65 Michelin stars, including five three-star selections — the most out of any U.S. city.If you're looking for a culinary experience that also highlights some of the city's architectural history, consider visiting Eleven Madison Park, a three-star standout located in a 90-plus-year-old, art deco skyscraper that overlooks Madison Square Park.Owned by chef Daniel Humm and restaurateur Will Guidara, Eleven Madison Park is known for being extremely accessible. Visitors are encouraged to sit at the bar for just a drink, or to enjoy a shortened version of the tasting menu for under $200.5. Hong KongOne-star restaurants: 52Two-star restaurants: 12Three-star restaurants: 7Total stars: 71Michelin Restaurants in Hong KongWith a total of 71 Michelin stars, Hong Kong clearly stands out as one of the world's best cities for fine dining. The city also has a number of restaurants on the prestigious Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list in 2021.Among Hong Kong's must-visit eateries is two-star restaurant Amber, led by chef Richard Ekkebus and pastry chef Michael Pretet. The contemporary French restaurant has a wine list featuring more than 1,100 labels and treats diners to dishes like Miyazaki wagyu beef strip loin with seaweed powder, dried red onion skin, red pearl onions and black currant in a shiraz reduction.One of the most memorable features of dining here is the restaurant's chandelier, featuring 4,320 bronze rods dangling from the ceiling.4. OsakaOne-star restaurants: 82Two-star restaurants: 11Three-star restaurants: 3Total stars: 96Michelin Restaurants in OsakaWith 96 total stars, Osaka is the first, but not the last Japanese restaurant on this ranking.One of Osaka's stellar restaurants is Hajime, which first earned its third Michelin star in 2018. Led by chef Hajime Yoneda and pastry chef Yuko Uchida, Hajime's menu explores nature, earth and space, as well as philosophical questions about life's true meaning.Hajime has a standard tasting menu, as well as a short tasting menu and a vegetable tasting menu, all of which will set you back over $300. One of the most popular dishes at Hajime is called "chikyu," which means "planet Earth." The dish, meant to represent both the land and the sea, features a shellfish foam and more than 100 vegetables, herbs and grains.2. Kyoto (Tie)One-star restaurants: 83Two-star restaurants: 19Three-star restaurants: 6Total stars: 108Michelin Restaurants in KyotoIf you're planning a visit to Japan to sample some of its best cuisine, you'll want to add Kyoto to your list of must-visit cities. Kyoto, with a population of roughly 1.4 million people, boasts 108 Michelin stars.Isshisoden Nakamura, one of Kyoto's six three-star restaurants, is a sixth-generation establishment with roots dating back to 1827. Chef Motokazu Nakamura says he likes to put a contemporary spin on traditional Kyoto techniques and ingredients, "passed down from generation to generation."A standout dish at the restaurant is shiro-miso zoni, a Japanese rice dumpling soup with white miso. 2. Paris (Tie)One-star restaurants: 88Two-star restaurants: 11Three-star restaurants: 9Total stars: 108Michelin Restaurants in ParisKnown for being one of the best food cities in the world, Paris ties for second place with Kyoto with 108 Michelin stars. Paris boasts nine three-star restaurants within its city limits, including Épicure.Decorated with quintessential French elegance, the restaurant is located at the Bristol Paris hotel and overlooks a garden that generously blooms in the spring. The menu is unapologetically and almost purely French. As the restaurant claims itself, the "macaroni stuffed with black truffle, artichoke and duck foie gras, gratinée with aged Parmesan is an unforgettable dish that people travel to Paris to experience."1. TokyoOne-star restaurants: 150Two-star restaurants: 41Three-star restaurants: 12Total stars: 203Michelin Restaurants in TokyoWho has the most Michelin stars? Tokyo reigns supreme when it comes to Michelin stars, blowing all other cities out of the water with an astonishing 203 total stars, 95 more than its closest rival, Paris. The capital of Japan has 12 restaurants with three Michelin stars (the most of any city in the world), plus dozens of other top-notch eateries to choose from.One of the city's best restaurants is three-starred Ryugin, which has been led by esteemed chef Seiji Yamamoto since 2003. The restaurant creates memorable dishes using seasonal produce, seafood and meats.On the menu, you'll find pheasant, wild duck, Japanese pigeon, wild boar, brown bear and a seasonal sashimi platter. Before you visit, be sure to take a peak at the restaurant's website, as there are some strict rules regarding attire, cell phones, cameras and even perfume.

"Pic of the Week", January 27, 2017: A Visit to Toronto's Victoria University
Strolling about the neighborhood of the Ontario Legislative Building, Toronto, I came across a pretty college campus. This is Victoria University (known as Victoria College), a beautiful and historic school.
Not a large campus, it's a pleasant place to explore on foot — to enjoy the architecture and some of its interesting art.
It wasn't until later than I learned a little more about the place. Victoria University was founded in 1836 by royal charter from King William IV. Victoria became part of the University of Toronto in 1890. It consists of Victoria College, an arts and science college, and Emmanuel College, a theological school associated with the United Church of Canada.
Victoria is one of the …

Be Good or Be Gone
Set over the course of four days in modernday Dublin, this Irish dramedy revolves around two petty-criminal cousins released from Mountjoy Prison. Weed is keen to pursue fashion, if only he can break his substance addiction. Ste wants to build a better life for himself, his girlfriend and their daughter. But that's before they get drawn into a robbery that goes spectacularly wrong in Cathal Nally's energetic feature debut.
GoMovies Review:
Really fantastic movie, my favorite in drama category. The 'best' term is as you know from a relative term: You or I may not even be on the list of someone else whom we consider to be 'the best'. So the general rule is to declare the majority of nations. Like the best, though, for me, it can be considered the most beautiful movie ever made. It's really hard to distinguish the good from the good. Best of all, you need to find out what makes this important. Writing, directing, cinematography and taking into account the effect of taking into account.
This is a few words of movie music: simple, deceptive, cool, just right. I've been searching for more movie online like this since watching and researching it, vainly… The amount of details and little aspects of the movie that you can find years and years later is absolutely cool.
This director is great. With Be Good or Be Gone online he seems to be setting himself some kind of a test – how far over the top can he go? I have not found Be Good or Be Gone movie full elsewhere so I uploaded it here, now everyone can see this movie online for free.

Thiago Alcantara has issued a rallying call to his teammates following a share of the points at Anfield this afternoon.
With Liverpool's greatly anticipated clash against Manchester United ending goalless, Jurgen Klopp's men fall to third place in the Premier League, at the time of writing.
"We are happy in some way with our performance – how we did in some moments of the game – but we have to do much better to be on top of the league."@Thiago6 on the Reds looking to improve 👊 #LIVMUN
— Liverpool FC (@LFC) January 17, 2021
Should Manchester City win their tie with Crystal Palace, as expected, the Cityzens will leapfrog both Liverpool and Leicester to take the Reds' former spot behind United.
Thiago was arguably our brightest spark in the stalemate – beyond the stellar defensive performances provided by makeshift centre-backs Jordan Henderson and Fabinho – constantly driving us forward with his positive play.
The fitness of Joel Matip, should a suitable defensive target not arise in the current transfer window, will be a distinct concern for Klopp, with the German potentially having to rely on two midfielders for the backbone of his defence.
Regardless of our current defensive issues, however, our No.6 got things spot on with his post-match assessment – we have to improve, and quickly, if the club is to have any hope of retaining the title.
Fortunately, we'll be able to call on Thiago for some extra creativity in midfield, which could be the difference-maker going forward.

Here at QQSTUDIO, we use a printing process called Rotogravure printing. This technique is what helps us get the look you want for your product.
What is Rotogravure printing?
Rotogravure is a type of intaglio printing process, which involves engraving the image onto an image carrier. Intaglio is the technique in which an image is incised into a surface and the ink sits in the engraved area before being pressed onto the material being printed upon. In gravure printing, the image is engraved onto a cylinder because it uses a rotary printing press.
In the printing process, the cylinder bearing the printing plates is usually arranged so that during its rotary movement it passes through a trough filled with a thin solution of fast-drying ink, or is sprayed with ink instead. A thin steel blade (called the doctor blade) moves across the cylinder and removes the ink from the plate's surface but not from the tiny depressions in its cells. The plate cylinder then comes in contact with the paper, and the paper draws the ink out of the depressions in the plate. In colour rotogravure printing, a separate cylinder is prepared for each colour.
Because cells of different depths can hold varying amounts of ink, the rotogravure process can print a rich, full range of tonal values, making it ideal for reproducing photographs and other continuous-tone copy in large quantities. Rotogravure is thus widely used to print newspaper supplements (e.g., colour magazine sections), catalogues, illustrated magazines and books, advertising, calendars, and so on. It is also employed for printing labels and wrappers on cellophane and similar materials. A high-speed printing process, rotogravure is best used for printing long runs of material bearing black-and-white or colour illustrations.
What is it primarily used for?
The rotogravure printing process is primarily used for printing on wallpaper or gift wrapping paper. But it can also be used for printing labels, packaging, and other products that want a more unique print on it. We do not work with any manufacturers who use this printing process since it is not that widely used. In general, the printing process is rather adaptive and efficient for high quantity products but due to high start-up costs, it is used for more luxurious products.
The Rotogravure printing process is the most popular printing process used in flexible-packaging manufacturing. It has the ability to print on thin film such as polyester, OPP, nylon, and PE, which come in a wide range of thicknesses.
Other appreciated features include:
- Printing cylinders that can last through large-volume runs without the image degrading
- Good quality image reproduction
- Low per-unit costs running high volume production
Shortcomings of the gravure printing process include:
- High start-up costs: hundreds of thousands of copies needed to make it profitable
- Rasterized lines and texts
- Long lead time for cylinder preparation, which is offsite as the techniques used are so specialized

Alarming News: I like Morgan Freeberg. A lot.
American Digest: And I like this from "The Blog That Nobody Reads", because it is -- mostly -- about me. What can I say? I'm on an ego trip today. It won't last.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: We were following a trackback and thinking "hmmm... this is a bloody excellent post!", and then we realized that it was just part III of, well, three...Damn. I wish I'd written those.
Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler: ...I just remembered that I found a new blog a short while ago, House of Eratosthenes, that I really like. I like his common sense approach and his curiosity when it comes to why people believe what they believe rather than just what they believe.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is an intriguing guy...[he] asks great questions and answers others with style, flair, reason and wit. On the blogroll he goes. Make him a part of your regular blogospheric reading. I certainly will.
Brutally Honest: Morgan Freeberg is brilliant.
Common Sense Junction: Misha @ Anti-Idiotarian never ceases to amaze me. He keeps finding other good blogs. I went over to A.I. this morning for my daily Misha fix and he had found this guy named Morgan Freeberg in Fair Oaks, California, that has a blog, House of Eratosthenes. Freeberg says its "The Blog That Nobody Reads" but it may now become the blog that everybody reads.
Dr. Melissa Clouthier: Morgan Freeberg at House of Eratosthenes (pftthats a mouthful) honors big boned women in skimpy clothing. The picture there is priceless--keep scrolling down.
Exile in Portales: Via Gerard: Morgan Freeberg, a guy with a lot to say. And he speaks The Truth...and it's fascinating stuff. Worth a read, or three. Or six.
The Heat Is On: From House of Eratosthenes comes yet another enlightening piece on liberals. All I can say is "Dayum, does this guy have libs pegged or what?" Excellent work, Morgan. Here's to ya!
Jaded Haven: Good God, Morgan, you cover a topic from front to back with a screwy thoroughness I find mind boggling. I'm in awe of your thought proccesses, my friend, you're an exceptional talent. You start by throwing in the kitchen sink, tie in someone's syphilitic uncle, bend around a rip tide of brilliance and bring it all home in a neat, diamond dripping package of an exceptionally readable moment of damn fine wordsmithing. I love reading you.
Just Muttering: Two nice pieces at House of Eratosthenes, one about a perhaps unintended effect of the Enron mess, and one on the Gore-y environ-movie.
Mein Blogovault: Make "the Blog that No One Reads" one of your daily reads.
Pajamas Media: Over at The House of Eratosthenes ("The blog nobody reads"), Morgan Freeberg is taking a candid look at one of America's most indulgent habits.
Philmon: When Morgan meanders, stick with him - he's got a point and it'll be worth it in the end. He's not a hit-and-run snarky quip kind of guy. The pieces all fall into place like tumblers in a lock and bang! He's opened a cognative door for you.
Rightlinx: Morgan at House of Eratosthenes is one of the best writers out there. I read him nearly every day because he manages to provide an interesting perspective, even though I don't always agree.
The Virginian: I know this post will offend some people, but the author makes some good points.
Poetic Justice: Cletus! Ah gots a laiv one fer yew...
Conn Iggulden is a man on a mission: To round up our boys, pump out all that bad overly-feminine wussiness we all know they've been fed over the years like fattened veal calves, and re-inject that rugged, noogie-giving, bug-squishing, "Hold My Beer and Watch This" stuff the Good Lord intended them to have.
He's written a book, with his brother, called "The Dangerous Book for Boys."
It's about remembering a time when danger wasn't a dirty word. It's safer to put a boy in front of a PlayStation for a while, but not in the long run. The irony of making boys' lives too safe is that later they take worse risks on their own. You only have to push a baby boy hard on a swing and see his face light up. It's not learned behavior — he's hardwired to enjoy a little risk. Ask any man for a good memory from childhood and he'll tell you about testing his courage or getting injured. No one wants to see a child get hurt, but we really did think the bumps and scratches were badges of honor, once.
Since the book was published, I've discovered a vast group that cares about exactly the same things I do. I've heard from divorced fathers who use the book to make things with their sons instead of going out for fast food and a movie. I've received e-mails from 10-year-olds and a beautifully written letter from a man of 87.
I thought I was the only one sick of non-competitive sports days and playgrounds where it's practically impossible to hurt yourself. It turned out that the pendulum is swinging back at last. Boys are different from girls. Teaching them as though they are girls who don't wash as much leads to their failure in school, causing trouble all the way. Boys don't like group work. They do better on exams than they do in coursework, and they don't like class discussion. In history lessons, they prefer stories of Rome and of courage to projects on the suffragettes.
I've done very much the same thing with my son, although not on quite so grand a scale. On the Doofus Dad list that was picked up and passed 'round a few weeks ago, there are three or four titles I have never seen. My son came up with those, after seeing them himself, assuring me they all met the criteria.
I walk a fine line. To me, inculcating the boy with my jaundiced sentiments about the feminist movement, crosses the line. But to deny him the observations I've made about it over the years, withholding even a smidgen of the things I consciously wish others had taught me when I was his age, seems like a crime. And, sometimes he asks questions — in response to which I can change the subject, tell the truth, or lie. There's no fourth option.
So in response to "How come you refer to the feminist movement in the past tense, and my Mom doesn't?" I tell him the truth. I tell him there are revolutions that try to make the world a better place, and there are cynical political movements that just try to accumulate power. When President Clinton mistreated women, and the feminist movement gave him cover, it was revealed as a political movement, nothing more, never mind the good intentions that might have started it. And people gave up on it.
Some folks wouldn't like that explanation one bit. Some folks think the boy would have a better shot at it being raised in the woods by wild animals. And yet it occurs to me: A father who just regurgitates the crap he's been fed himself over the years, in order to avoid the wrath of third-parties, must be worth — what? Not a whole helluva lot. I've made my share of mistakes as a Dad, but I'm better than that. If it's the truth he seeks, it's the truth he shall have.
Not to say I'm unbiased. To the question about whether my bias has ascended to lunacy, my defense plan is to hide behind what other folks are doing, and entertain the time-honored question: Which is worse? And what a stellar example I can capture from the work of Iggulden himself:
It's all a matter of balance. When I was a teacher, I asked my head of department why every textbook seemed to have a girl achieving her dream of being a carpenter while the boys were morons. She replied that boys had had it their own way for too long, and now it was the girls' turn. Ouch.
The problem with fighting adult gender battles in the classroom is that the children always lose.
I expected a backlash. If you put the word "boys" on something, someone will always complain. One blog even promoted the idea of removing the words "For Boys" from the cover with an Exacto knife so that people's sons wouldn't be introduced to any unpleasantly masculine notions such as duty, honor, courage and competence.
Boys had it their way and now it's the girls' turn. Removing "For Boys" with an Exacto knife.
Christ on a cracker, we can get silly sometimes. There's something going on here, not just with the womens' movement, but with all those rabble-rousing movements from the second half of the twentieth century. They all seem to have followed the same path: Promoting the interests of a designated class; promoting political movements friendly to members of that designated class; opposing political movements hostile to members of the class; opposing people who are members of other classes — and getting stuck there. Stuck in the role of bringing discomfort and pain to individuals outside the membership, punishing the outsiders for the crime of simply being what they are.
And so in 2007, the feminist movement seems to find it difficult to help little girls without hurting little boys. All these movements engineered to conquer injustice on behalf of pre-defined groups of people…they all descend into a muck of negativity, and stay there like a pterodactyl in a tar pit.
Thing I Know #196. Real freedom is actually pretty boring. It has very little to do with noteworthy events, save for the one event marking its arrival. When classes of people take turns, over time, enjoying special privileges, not one man among them enjoys genuine freedom.
I think the lesson here is pretty obvious: All absolutist statements eventually lead to problems, including this one.

Spy School Secret Service
Ben goes undercover in the White House to take on a SPYDER operative determined to assassinate the president in this latest addition to the New York Times bestselling Spy School series.Thirteen-year-old Ben Ripley has had a lot of field success despite only just beginning his second year at Spy School, something graduates rarely experience. But he'd never have survived without the help from experienced agents and his friends. Now he's been called in on a solo mission—and the fate of the United States of America is on his shoulders alone. The Mission: Prevent a presidential assassination by infiltrating the White House, and locating the enemy operative. But when the president's son is as helpful as a hamster, and a trained SPYDER agent would never appear to be up to something (they're far too clever for that), Ben may be in over his head this time. And when everything goes wrong, Ben must rely on his Spy School friends to save his reputation…but even friends can double-cross or be swayed to the enemy's side.

The statement further reads, "On the 03/11/2021 at about 1630 hours, a report was received that, one Bashir Abdullahi, 65-year-old, of Sitti Village, Sumaila Local Government Area, Kano State was kidnapped by unknown persons at his farm, located at Barasa forest, Gomo Village, Sumaila LGA Kano State, a border town with Bauchi State.
"On receipt of the report, the Commissioner of Police, Kano State Command, CP Sama'ila Shu'aibu Dikko, raised and instructed teams of Operation Puff Adder to rescue the victim and arrest the culprits."
He said the team had since swung into action, adding that preliminary investigation revealed that the victim relocated to the farm inside the forest for about two weeks.


text: off to a great start however I major question is when your swinging you turn your body to the right, are you surpose to watch the ball all the time? I notice when you are in the backswing it hard to watch the golf ball. From what I seen you eye the ball when you start to swing however in the full swing you look behind your self!!! I'm I right?

An accommodation is a change to procedures, guidelines, or standards to permit a person to participate fully in the workplace without facing prejudice. According to human rights law, employers are required to ""accommodate"" a worker's needs if they are related to a handicap (either mental or physical). Because every circumstance is different, any accommodations would need to be assessed on an individual basis. Employers are expected to make every effort to accommodate a worker, barring extreme hardship. This claim implies that the extent to which an employer must make accommodations is reasonable. The employer may assert undue hardship if a risk to health and safety prevents the accommodation from being made or if the costs are excessive. It would be up to the employer to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that making an accommodation would be too difficult. Each instance of this suffering would be examined separately. Please refer to the following OSH Answers documents for further details on return to work initiatives: Overview of the Return to Work program Analysis of Job Demands for Return to Work Functional Abilities Evaluation for Return to Work Return to Work and Mental Health
How are suitable modifications and modified work decided upon?
Based on the worker's present functional ability, accommodations should be made. Depending on the type of injury or sickness, the functional abilities may relate to either physical or mental talents. The process of discussing accommodation choices is collaborative, involving both the individual and their health care provider. Providing the health care provider with completed physical demanding descriptions can aid in determining the optimal ""fit to work"" status. Keep in mind that a diagnosis or specific treatment information is not required to be shared. Put equal emphasis on the organization's requirements as well as the person's present capabilities and functionality. Make check-in dates and benchmarks. If at all possible, while addressing accommodations, enquire as to what difficulties existed prior to the absence and what might present difficulties after the employee returns to work. All requests for accommodations must be made sincerely, and efforts must be taken to fulfill them. However, the employer might not be able to comply with a request, and not all requests could be appropriate. In order to find appropriate tasks and adjustments for each individual, circumstance, team, and workplace, collaboration is key.
What kinds of accommodations are there?
Flexible scheduling for medical appointments, working less hours, or allowing for more regular breaks are a few examples of adjustments. alterations to the workspace that take into account the individual's requirements for accessibility, noise, light, and other elements that may have an impact on mental health, focus, and well-being. meaningful work, such as obtaining supplies or filling out documentation Consider the person's level of energy and attention span while scheduling the tasks for the day. Help the person set priorities for their tasks and activities. This stage could involve dividing the work into manageable chunks or getting rid of any duties that aren't absolutely necessary. To ensure the success of the work or the return to work plan, have meetings more frequently. Evaluate training requirements and offer any required retraining or reorientation.
Where can I find further details?
resources that serve as examples include Mental Health Works' sample work plans. The Canadian Commission on Human Rights: Accommodation Works! (*We included these groups in order to offer a possible referral that might be helpful. For more information about the organization's services, get in touch with them directly. Please be aware that the listing of these organizations does not imply that CCOHS favors them above other groups you may be aware of.)""" - https://www.affordablecebu.com/

'90 Day Fiancé': Why Paul Staehle Runs Away After Learning Some Shocking News
One of the most memorable and watchable couples on 90 Day Fiancé and its spinoffs are Paul Staehle and his wife, Karine Staehle. In season 1 of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, Paul gets some bad news that leads to him running away, again. Read on to learn how it all goes down in one of the most shocking moments of the season.
Paul gets a letter he's been waiting for
Paul has been waiting to hear about his application for permanent residency to live in Brazil. He's hoping to then apply for a work permit to support his wife and unborn child. However, he gets some bad news. He receives a letter and reads it on camera.
He uses an app to translate the letter, which says his residency application has been denied. "It's saying that because I've committed a crime of terrorism, genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes, for these reasons my application of residency is being denied," Paul tells the cameras.
'I didn't even commit anything like that'
Paul is in disbelief about what he's reading. It's unclear what this means for his future with Karine in Brazil at this time. "I didn't even commit anything like that," Paul explains in utter disbelief. "I've never committed an act of terrorism or genocide. You have 10 days…" Paul says as he starts cursing. "Karine's going to be heartbroken. She's gonna be just shocked. I've got 10 days to deal with this, then apparently I have to leave the country."
Paul is unsure of what to do and says he needs a minute. He gets up and runs away from the cameras and it's a shocking turn of events. Fans have seen Paul run away before, so this isn't out of character for him, though it is surprising to see him bolt away from the camera crew.
Paul goes to talk to a lawyer about his circumstances
Paul finds a lawyer in Brazil to talk to about the letter he received. He explains the situation, and the lawyer looks over the results. He says Paul has a problem, since the letter says he was charged with "terroristic threatening." Paul explains that's a misdemeanor charge and he: "was accused of threatening somebody that I was gonna slash their tires. So they think I was arrested for actual terrorism?" The lawyer says "Yes."
Paul tells the cameras that 13 years ago, he came home and found out his girlfriend was with another guy. "So yeah, I threatened to slash his tires. I made some angry comments. I am sorry," Paul says.
The lawyer goes on to explain that the name "terroristic threatening" doesn't exist in Brazil. And when translated, can sound like a terrorism charge. The lawyer gets to work on clearing up the situation to try to change the decision in Paul's favor with an appeal.
Paul and Karine have certainly been through a lot over the years, and sometimes it's hard to believe they have dealt with so much drama in their relationship.

A new day.
"And the evening and the morning were the first day."
Genesis 1:5
In God's Kingdom, days start at night.
The way He set up creation is not how we live life in western culture. According to the way we tell time, it becomes a new day is when it goes from 11:59 PM to 12:00 AM. For instance, two days ago we crossed over not just into a new day but a whole new year from 11:59 PM Dec 31, 2021 to midnight Jan 1, 2022.
But God's kingdom is not like ours in how we tell time. His days begin at sunset. Everyone of the days of creation in Genesis 1 are described as "the evening and the morning" was the first day, second day, third day, etc. Evening first, then morning. In God's timing a new day always begins in darkness.
I was talking with two people this week and I found myself sharing about when we feel like we are or have been going through dark times:
First, you have to know the darkness you are experiencing is evidence that a new day is coming for you. God's process of creation and recreation often begins in darkness.
Second, in God's kingdom there cannot be perpetual darkness. Darkness always precedes daylight. There is a time or a season for night, but there is also a time and a season for day.
What do I mean by darkness? It can be a darkness of soul, when we feel those low emotions, or in a relationship, or maybe just not having hope that the future can ever get better or see a way out-- the very presence of that darkness is proof positive that daybreak is coming.
"To everything there is a season, and a time for everything under the heavens."
Ecclesiastes 3:1

Im new to this website and to the goat scene. We had 3 healthy Nigerian Dwarfs. I left town yesterday morning early. Reminded my husband to give fresh hay, water, etc. He went in to work at 430 pm for 14 hr shift. All three goats were fine when he left. He did not check on them at 7am when he got home. I got home about 330 pm. Went out to check on goats and chickens and 1 goat dead, 1 sick, and 1 fine. I have no idea what happened, nor does my husband. When we picked the deceased goat up to move it watery liquid poured from her mouth. Sick goat has very "sloshy" belly. Is it bloat? worms? parasites? Need help please.

To assess YOURSELF, you need a different product and, if you take security seriously, you need a product that is focused on enhancing your operational security, discovering the entire attack surface and complementing your existing enterprise toolset.
Using a rating to manage and protect your external attack surface is like using your personal credit score to manage your finances; it rapidly loses relevance as you dive into the actual details of your financial position to try to improve things.
What security ratings do… and don't
At a high level, ratings platforms use data that is aggregated from third-party data sources that provide them with an indication of how an organisation configures certain aspects of their perimeter. They then base their security ratings on that data. That data is passively collected because of the need to gain statistical relevance by scanning hundreds of thousands of organisations, and is therefore literally limited to banner matching for vulnerabilities and issues.
This results in a low-fidelity, high-false positive way of determining issues. These third-party passive data feeds provide a minimal, common set of data to create a high-level security rating report, which can then be used to compare organisations for the purpose of security posture benchmarking. Because the intent of this data is to compare different organisations, the data itself must be homogenous enough to facilitate comparison, preventing the easy customisation of your attack surface; the same customisation that would be critical to gaining a true understanding of your current posture.
The benefit of a security rating from one of these platforms is its speed and consistency. It gives you a quick, high-level number that compares the company you're analysing to others using the same methodology and data sets that are used for everyone. This can provide general guidance into the organisation's relative security posture compared to others. That is valuable for M&A due diligence, purchasing and supply chain management, meeting partner compliance requirements, or qualifying for cyber insurance. The simplicity of this type of rating is its strength, but because it can provide only general guidance, it is also its weakness.
How so? The problem is when companies try to use their own rating as a replacement for performing attack surface management or deep security testing for security posture improvement. Passive ratings don't include vulnerability tests or security tests, and potentially they miss out on subsidiaries or fail to update them for changes.
As a result, your security rating might tell you the relative security posture of your company, but it can't provide actionable security improvements that can be used to identify and remediate vulnerabilities or other issues. Worse, because the security rating is based on third-party threat intelligence data feeds, the data runs the risk of being stale and woefully inaccurate as the attack surface and its threats have changed in the time it took to collect the data and present it as a tidy rating.
Another potential pitfall to keep in mind with security ratings platforms is that when a security rating becomes a key performance indicator (KPI), organisations will naturally begin focusing on improvements that improve the security rating, and not improvements that will necessarily impact their security posture.
In the best case, a security rating is a valuable, if general, guide; in the worst case, it's a convenient metric that distracts from an organisation's true cybersecurity risk.
Why security ratings are no replacement for attack surface management
While a security rating platform is the wrong tool for creating actionable insight, an attack surface protection platform is critical for that job. The CyCognito platform uses attacker-like reconnaissance techniques to see and manage your complete attack surface, find security gaps, and help your organisation prevent breaches.
By looking at your attack surface from the perspective of the hacker, you can remediate the issues that hackers will find most tempting, while gaining actionable information about where your vulnerabilities and other security gaps lie so you know exactly what you need to focus on. With detailed contextual information derived from active security testing, you can execute prioritised remediation plans that improve your organisation's security posture.
Here's how common security rating platforms compare to an attack surface management platform like the CyCognito platform:
|CyCognito Platform
|Security Rating Platforms
|Main Purpose
Provide SOC teams with complete visibility into the externally exposed assets across the entire attack surface for security posture improvement.
Provide risk management procurement teams with a snapshot of another company's overall risk, with no mission for security posture improvement.
|Automated Discovery
Automatically and continuously discovers new assets, including unknown and new networks using active reconnaissance.
Relies solely on annual reports of acquisitions and third-party passive data feeds to provide a snapshot with limited network visibility.
|Automated Classification
Automatically classifies 90% of assets.
Limited automatic classification based on 3rd-party banner grabbing.
|Automatic Attribution
Automatically and continuously attributes virtually all assets to one or more organisations/teams with evidence.
Limited to links on registry pages or domains while lacking a transparent discovery path, which makes false positives common.
|Risk Detection
Actively detects sensitive data exposures, network infrastructure vulnerabilities, web application vulnerabilities, phishing risks, software misconfiguration, weak credentials, dangling DNS, and much more with high fidelity.
Very low fidelity and high false positive rate with no transparency or evidence. Detections based on banners are entirely inadequate to identify real risks, much less prioritize them.
Asset scoring and grading is contextually driven using parameters of issue severity, attractiveness for attack, potential impact, exploitability of issues, and discoverability of assets.
Priority algorithm is opaque without use of real-time context or threat intelligence calculation. No concept of remediation planning based on prioritisation and goals.
|Complete Black Box Operation
Platform automatically delivers complete continuous attack surface protection with zero configuration.
Using a security rating platform for attack surface management requires almost 100% manual efforts to correlate high-level findings with scan-based security testing that is prioritized and validated outside of the platform.
|Workflow Automation
Automatically synchronizes with teams and systems for asset management, security testing, operationalisation of remediation workflow, automatic generation of tickets, automatic communication to vested parties, and automatic continuous closed-loop fix validation.
Provides integrations for Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) but not operationalised security.
Customisable filters provide quick access to attack surface analytics that make sense to all stakeholders.
High-level reporting on generalised scores of subsidiaries only; lacks the required details for remediation and validation of fixes.
Like trying to manage your current account with your credit score, you're almost destined to fail when using a security rating service to manage your attack surface. Ratings are based on very limited testing, low fidelity asset discovery and data from third-party passive services, and comparisons against other companies without any context into your specific network or business objectives. In no way does this tell you anything about your actual security posture.
Download our Cybersecurity Self-Assessment Guide to learn how you can establish the baseline security "rating" you need to actually understand how things change over time so you can ensure that your security investments in people and technology are effectively addressing your organisation's highest priorities and most critical risks.

Denaturation and intermediates study of two sturgeon hemoglobins by n-dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide. Int J Biol Macromol. 2013 Feb;53:107-13. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2012.10.015. Epub 2012 Nov 9.

Varieties of hemoglobin (Hb) forms exist in fish, which are usually well adapted to the different ecological conditions or various habitats. In the current study, Hbs from two Sturgeon species of the Southern Caspian Sea Basin were purified and studied upon interaction with n-dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide (DTAB; as a cationic surfactant) by various methods including UV-visible absorption, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and ANS fluorescence spectrophotometry. The chemometric analysis of Hbs was investigated upon interaction with DTAB under titration, using UV-visible absorption spectra. The chemometric resolution techniques were used to determine the number of the components and mole fraction of the oxidized Hbs. These results provided the evidence for the existence of three different molecular components including native (N), intermediate (I) and denatured (D) in sturgeon Hbs. According to the distribution of intermediates, which were broadened in a range of DTAB concentration, the aggregation states, DLS experiments, and thermal stability (T(m) obtained by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)), the Acipenser stellatus Hb was more stable compared to Acipenser persicus Hb. These results demonstrate a significant relationship between the stability of fish Hbs and the habitat depth requirements.

A Question about Ellie's statement to Daniel Faraday in 1954
AES just reminded me of a statement made by young Eloise Hawking to her son Daniel Faraday in 1954, during the scene in Jughead.
She says; "You just couldn't stay away, could you"?
Richard Alpert was not aware of John Locke or anyone else for that matter in 1954. This was his first time meeting John Locke, and based upon their conversation, the reason why he pursues John throughout the course of his life.
So how do we explain Ellie's obvious knowledge of Daniel's life, to have made this strange statement in 1954?
Have I missed something logical?
