CTRNF Character Icons
are you gonna do tawna, Isabella, megumi, liz and ami as well as their skins icon? Kingdom210 (talk) 21:50, July 8, 2019 (UTC)
Nitro-Fueled kart customization icons
Seeing how you uploaded clear versions of the character icons from CTR Nitro-Fueled, do you perhaps also have access to the icons of kart bodies, decals, wheels, paint jobs and stickers? Pauolo (talk) 14:20, July 19, 2019 (UTC)
- Impressive start, thanks for your effort. :)
- If you don't mind me asking, it seems like you're able to export the icons themselves from the game. I know these UI textures usually come on large sheets, like sprites in 2D games. Do you happen to find unused items or skins among them? I listed a paint job that's currently unavailable yet used by the AIs in races. If you could find its icon, that would be near. It should be main color pink, decal (bottom splash) light blue, left side color red and right side color light blue. Pauolo (talk) 06:59, July 22, 2019 (UTC)
A tool for uploading multiple images on wikis
Just so you know, there's a tool on all wikis to upload 10 images at the same time: Special:MultipleUpload
I use it on other wikis when I upload tons of assets like sprites. It also allows you to fill in the same description for all 10 images.

Re: SPK Promo Items
I was just going to. I can't however know how many stickers there are nor their names. If you can at least tell me how many, I'll prep them as well with temporary names and tiers. Pauolo (talk) 19:11, August 14, 2019 (UTC)
The item names are " Cove Cruiser Kart Body" - " Tropic Swirl Decal" - "Mint Blast Paint Job" - "Gummy Grinder Wheels" - "Kids Kart Sticker Pack"
Judging by the images found through the inspect element. the sticker pack consists of 3 different designs Shown Here But the found "Complete Kart " image Shows a single sticker upon its surface. indicating the pack consists of just 3 stickers Hyenadip (talk) 19:35, August 14, 2019 (UTC)
Re: Hey
Actually I thought ahead and already readied the pages for the new stuff. I left everything in hide tags to keep the pages clean for now. I just need to change a few names here and there, add some missing items and you'll be ready to go.
Btw, do you have the icon for the Trident promo Cove Cruiser's decal Tropic Swirl? I was able to redeem the code for the kart body and decal, but only got the kart body alone. I saw other people in the same situation. I'm starting to believe Beenox forgot to put it in the game.
Pauolo (talk) 22:36, August 30, 2019 (UTC)
Understood. I'll get those paints and such up as soon as possible. and yes. The Decal and Stickers are not dropping for some reason. Make sure to report it through the nitro-fueled support page ( the more reports the faster it will be fixed no doubt. ) Hyenadip (talk) 23:06, August 30, 2019 (UTC)
Hello, I have noticed you uploaded clean rips of all the character and kart icons for CTR Nitro-Fueled. Could you perhaps do the same with all the Power-Up items from that game? {{SUBST:User:Arend/Sig2}} 01:27, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
Oh sure. If you could link me to the correct gallery/template/image templates I'd be happy to upload those! Hyenadip (talk) 01:33, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
Okay, I suppose Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled/Gallery would probably the best place at the moment to upload them all to in one go (and yeah, the character and skin section is kind of a mess right now as well). {{SUBST:User:Arend/Sig2}} 02:04, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
Status of 3rd GP items and requests
All the prep work is done, you're free to upload the new pics from the 3rd GP.
Also, I'd like to formulate requests. Do you have all the pics for character bundles, kart sets, sticker packs and color sets featured in the Pit Stop? If so, I'd be interested in using them in the wiki. I can give you a list of file names for you to upload them under.
Another thing I'd like uploaded is both Nitro canister icons: the one for item bonuses (5%, 10%, 15%) and the one from the GP progression bar. Same thing here, if you can upload them I'll give you file names for you to use.
Pauolo (talk) 15:23, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
Iv'e got those files ready now. just let me know the template/exact name you need and I'll pop 'em up when it's ready. Hyenadip (talk) 21:47, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
- For the Nitro canister from the Nitro gauge, I was thinking of using that template to display its icon next to specified amounts (like we have for Wumpa Coins): Template:CTRNF-NP.
- For the other canister with the % bonus, I was thinking of using it in the Template:CTRNF_Skin_Table_Row. Not sure how for now, but you an use the file name CTRNF-Nitro Bonus.png
- As for the bundles/sets/packs, I had this setup in mind: https://crashbandicoot.fandom.com/wiki/User:Pauolo
- I'll go edit the Grand Prix pages which have those bundles with the proper file names.
Nitro-Fueled Power-Ups
Since I haven't gotten a response since last time I messaged you, I decided to prep up something, like Pauolo did with the kart customization options.
I have put a table on the CTRNF page, listing all the available Power-Ups and including image links you can use to upload those files. I hope that's OK with you? {{SUBST:User:Arend/Sig2}} 20:41, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
Sorry about that. Iv'e uploaded all of the icons now. There are ones that also exist for the x3 items ( bowling ball / rocket ) would you want to add those to the template or leave them be? Hyenadip (talk) 21:40, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
Sure, why not? Also, thanks for the uploads! {{SUBST:User:Arend/Sig2}} 21:49, August 31, 2019 (UTC)
Regarding the Mondelez promo items
I contacted Activision yesterday in regards to the Cove Cruiser missing its decal on my account, like you suggested me to do. They unlocked it manually for me today, so thanks for the advice. :)
On another subject, I haven't seen anyone with File:Red kid sticker.png and File:Yellow kid sticker.png unlocked. I wonder if that's another bug or they were not intended to be obtained at last minute. Pauolo (talk) 22:34, September 3, 2019 (UTC)#
Yes it seems despite being mined there are actually only 3 stickers in the game. It seemed they cut back the number at one point but the files did not change to reflect this. If you do not mind me asking how quickly was your issue resolved and what steps were you given. I had my sticker issue fixed. but my decal remains broken? Hyenadip (talk) 00:13, September 4, 2019 (UTC)
- I just contacted them, told them I unlocked the kart but not the decal, gave them the code I used. They asked me to try clearing the cache and restoring licences on my PS4, which I did and reported no successful result. They then "escalated" (loving that word they use :D) the support ticket to a higher team. And then yesterday they contacted me to tell it was now unlocked. I was playing at that time and lo! The decal was indeed there when I went to the customization menu.
- Btw if you open a support ticket for the decal, maybe ask if the sticker pack was supposed to only contain 3. Just pretext others pretend it contains more. Right now I cannot tell when Beenox are being simply incompetent rather thab doing things with purpose.
- Another point while I'm at it, some redditers reported yesterday the glitched appearance of the "Dino Pack", which seems to have been missing from the 2nd GP. I added it to the wiki's lists although marked as bugged, prepped its icon too. Tell me if you stumble across pics of bundles/packs that are not listed anywhere, I'll find a place to present them too. Pauolo (talk) 09:45, September 4, 2019 (UTC)
Did you go through these steps with a support team/ticket or through twitter? If so. would you mind posting your ticket number so my rep could possibly look into/get the same resolution for me? as for the unused content. I am unsure. Hyenadip (talk) 09:51, September 4, 2019 (UTC)
- Just went on the support website, first had a chat with someone from support but lost the connection. He then opened a ticket for me ("Missing promotional items", ref: 09196189) and the rest of our exchanges were through emails. I don't think I can link you to the ticket, it's linked to my Activision account. Pauolo (talk) 10:57, September 4, 2019 (UTC)
Re: Requested pics
Just so you know, I can rename and upload those pics I asked you about myself, if you find yourself unable to do so. If you have a way to upload them like a Google Drive, I can just DL them and take care of it. If not, I'll give you my email address so you can send a .rar or .zip with the files. Pauolo (talk) 13:40, September 8, 2019 (UTC)
Iv'e asked someone to manually pull the icons and images for me. It's just a case of waiting at the moment. ( annoying I know ) I'll try and get them extracted and uploaded as soon as possible. or at the very least. get the latest images pulled. Hyenadip (talk) 00:49, September 9, 2019 (UTC)
- I do understand. I wish I knew how to crack open the game to get those pics myself. But without a PC version, I'm a bit out of my depths here. /: Pauolo (talk) 16:31, September 9, 2019 (UTC)
I forgot to thank you for uploading the packs' pics. :) For the next batch of pics, can you also ask your contact for the 2 different Nitro cannisters pics (point counter and bonus)? Pauolo (talk) 08:52, October 1, 2019 (UTC)
Status of 4th GP pics and requests.
Stickers are prepped as well as 2 kart sets in the Pit Stop pages.
I prepped the tables for stuff I don't know the name yet (decals, exotic/recolored skins) but hid it with "-->" "<--" tags for now. If your friend already sent you all pics of new sets/bundles/packs, tell me how many by types and I'll prep the Pit Stop page in the same way.
Then I'd really like those 2 cannisters pics for templates to improve a bit page formatting. You can upload them under CTRNF-Nitro_Points.png and CTRNF-Nitro_Bonus.png if your friend send them to you.
Lastly, this is an odd request and I'm not even sure if your contact can export those specific pics since they're normally animated. I'd be grateful if you can ask them for the logo of each Grand Prix displayed on the game's main menu. I realized Activision sucks at marketing CTR and the Spyro GP page is missing a good pic with the GP's logo.
I know I've been asking a lot from you since the last months. I'm very grateful that you're able to ask that person for exports from CTR. In-game models and textures are much sought after when you dedicate your time in improving wikis. I'd probably buy a copy of the game on PC if it ever comes out just to export textures and models myself. Anyway, thanks for all your work. :)
Pauolo (talk) 09:43, October 3, 2019 (UTC)
Just uploaded them. go ahead and let me know if those are the correct versions/versions you want on those nitro canister files Hyenadip (talk) 17:16, October 3, 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot!
The Nitro Points pic is the right one. The problem though is that since it's a high-res model, the wiki makes it look blurry in smaller size: 4000. I know there's a smaller version of it used to display rewards at the end of races, but if it turns out to be the same texture scaled down by the game, then nevermind. I'll do with what I have plus I can reuse the pic at native resolution on the Grand Prix.
- The Nitro Bonus pic you uploaded is not the same as the one displayed under items. I'm actually not sure where that version is used. Still if your contact can't find the other version, then nevermind. I think the correct pic actually has a green rectangle next to it. That rectangle would be more bothering than having a slightly different pic.
- Pauolo (talk) 19:00, October 3, 2019 (UTC)
- Never mind the above, those pics are good enough as they are. :)
- Btw I started prepping the Pit Stop page for pics of character bundles, kart sets and sticker packs. Feel free to upload the corresponding images. If you have pics I haven't prepped yet, make me a list of them here and I'll improvise for you to upload them. Pauolo (talk) 09:58, October 4, 2019 (UTC)
Hi Hyenadip, how do you get the game icons like characters, karts and skins? could you tell me if you can't do it and update the bandipedia

5th GP done
I have prepped every remaining image that needs to be uploaded on the Pit Stop page. The only missing ones are 3 decals (Daredevil), 2 character bundles (base game and Nitro Tour tabs), 4 decal packs, 3 sticker packs (Back N. Time tab) and the Last Chance pics. I don't think I have missed any, I haven't seen any other decal pack so far nor sticker pack. Pauolo (talk) 23:19, November 12, 2019 (UTC)
- I added another decal pack. If there are more I haven't identify yet, just upload them anyway following the same format ([kart]_pack.png). I'll then take care of adding them to the Pit Stop page myself.
- Another point, the Last Chance pics you uploaded should have be named spooky_bundle_detail.png and spyro_n_friends_bundle_detail.png. I wanted to keep the other 2 file names for the smaller icons (these onese).
- Lastly, are there icons left for packs that are not on the Pit Stop page or any of the Grand Prix ones? If so upload them under whichever name you want, I'll take care of the rest. Pauolo (talk) 09:25, November 13, 2019 (UTC)
I'm having a hard time getting ahold of the beach bundle image. There's a few bundles that haven't shown up yet that I do however have the images for. and regarding the last_chance uploads. is there a way to potentially rename them or delete them so they can be reuploaded with the correct title/path? Hyenadip (talk) 14:15, November 13, 2019 (UTC)
- Just a suggestion, perhaps Beenox just overwrote the original pic of the summer time bundle with the beach time one? Seeing how close those packs are in content, I wouldn't be surprised if they did that to save space. They did make a second version of the Dino Pack after all.
- Upload away what you have found and that has yet to be mentioned. Only admins can rename files, so I'll see with one if needs be. Even so, it's not much an issue if the names are not exact.
- As for the Last Chances pics, you can just use the "upload a new version of this file" function on their file pages ("history" tab, bottom of the page) with the correct ones. Then reupload the older versions under the correct path names. That should do the trick. Pauolo (talk) 14:53, November 13, 2019 (UTC)
Went ahead and fixed that. Also uploaded four images for bundles that aren't out yet. Still no sign of the beach bundle image though. Hyenadip (talk) 04:55, November 15, 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks, I'll see to add them to the page and use your temporary names for now. Btw User:Meylody is taking care of the pics for the decal packs. I'll ask them if they had luck finding the beach time pic.
- I'd like to ask you however if there are sticker packs left to be added? It seems some stickers for the 1st GP are missing from the shop. Could be bugged packs though, since they are indicated as available in the select screen. Or could be an oversight by the developers. Pauolo (talk) 08:25, November 15, 2019 (UTC)

I hate bandicoots. I'm not entirely sure what they are — some sort of Australian possum thingie? — but I know I loathe the hairy buggers. After spending several nights over the last week enduring (not playing) the prettied up PS4 remaster of the original Crash Bandicoot, I now have a deep-seated resentment for marsupials everywhere.
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy has set the UK charts on fire since it launched, so before I lay boots into PlayStation's former mascot, I'll doff my imaginary cap to the critter's sales success. Jolly good show, Mr Bandicoot. Now, let the booting commence.
I finished the first Crash a couple of days ago; it took me somewhere in the region of eight hours to bash through its 30+ levels. By the end, when I finally reached the blimp-headed final boss — screw you, Cortex — I felt utterly broken. Crash Bandicoot isn't just hard: it represents the sort of brazenly cheap, 'wear you down at every opportunity' bullshit design that gets under your skin in the worst way possible.
Here's what Crash's last boss looks like. Spare yourself a lot of agony and don't bother trying to get this far.
Countless unfair deaths, mostly caused by a horribly haphazard jump. Punishing stages that stretch on and on, grinding down your enthusiasm with cheesy padding and crummy tricks. Terribly explained one-off mechanics that briefly surface, bemuse, infuriate, then slink back underground just as your blood is reaching boiling point. (I'm looking at you and your frustratingly random blackouts, Light Outs level).
It's not that Crash is always necessarily super difficult — the first set of stages on N. Sanity Island serve up a fairly gentle introduction to the pit-jumping, crate-smashing action. The problem is, even when you're succeeding, there's a sense the game forever wants to take you down a peg or two.
Example? Every level ends with a completion screen that literally brings Crash to his knees unless you break 100% of the crates lying around a stage. Considering how taxing the core meat-and-potatoes platforming is, you'll often miss a bunch of hard-to-reach crates in favour of pushing onto the next checkpoint. In most levels, I was lucky if I even smashed half of these apple-filled boxes — cue a 10 second stage-closing segment where Crash is pelted with every single crate he missed. Joy.
When you overcome a tricky obstacle in a game, it's nice to receive some gentle recognition; a little pat on the back from the developer that says, "Hey, well done, champ!" Suffice to say, this isn't Crash Bandicoot's style.
On my third night with the game my sanity was steadily nuked from orbit as I spent 45 minutes desperately trying to finish the final island's Slippery Climb level. If you're not familiar with this sludgy slog up a tower filled with rapidly flipping platforms, disappearing staircases, and creepy bearded prisoners who scratch at Crash from behind the bars of dingy cells, it's awful. Godawful. And my reward for finishing it? To be told "Great… but you missed 26 crates". It's the equivalent of finishing a marathon, having a fellow runner congratulate you, before they immediately hobble your ankles with a sledgehammer.
I've endured some horrible, rage-inducing nonsense on my PS4 over the years. Killzone Shadow Fall's friggin' awful, damn near impossible to control gliding section. Getting constantly pelted by Rom the Vacuous Spider's cheaty homing icicle attacks in Bloodborne. Trying to keep a crippled Captain MacMillan alive on Veteran difficulty in COD: Modern Warfare Remastered's 'One Shot, One Kill' big wheel siege. Know what's worse than all of that exasperating action? Crash Bandicoot's Road to Nowhere level.
Screw that stage. Screw it vigorously from every angle imaginable. In essence, it's a prolonged journey across the world's longest drawbridge; one peppered with rickety planks, devious slope sections, and overly aggressive wild boar. I'm not sure how long it took me to finish, only that I managed to squeeze in two whole podcasts while the bandicoot fell to his death again and again. If I wasn't being done in by the downright evil placement of disintegrating wooden platforms, I was getting gored repeatedly by Pumba's sociopathic cousins.
How did I finish this wretched level, you ask? I turned the annoyingly cheap tables on Crash by stumbling upon a cheese that let me precariously tiptoe across the bridge's railings.
At this point, your inner snark is probably dying to scream "git gud!", right? Well, I appreciate you keeping that mean-spirited oaf quiet. Believe it or not, I'm not actually rubbish at games — I've finished Super Meat Boy and everything, honest! The key is, there's a distinction to be made between brilliantly made games that just happen to be very hard (a category Team Meat's brutal platformer falls into), and games that artificially ramp up the challenge by way of unreliable controls and cheaty tricks. *cough* Crash Bandicoot *cough*
To be fair, my grievances with Crash shouldn't fall at Vicarious Visions' doorstep. The Activision-owned team may have brought the marsupial menace kicking and screaming onto PS4, but it's not to blame for all the cheap tactics and design flaws. Vicarious chose to leave Naughty Dog's PS1 trilogy more or less untouched in gameplay terms, instead pouring its energy into embellishing the trio with some speculator HD spit and polish. I'm loathe to type 'interactive Pixar films' *ugh* but all three games really do look sensationally pretty in motion.
The first Crash Bandicoot is very much Naughty Dog's terribly behaved baby, so all those needling 20-year-old mechanics are firmly on the Uncharted developer. I'd try to be angry at PlayStation premier studio, but then again, it gave me The Last Of Us, so we'll call it square when it comes to all this Crash anguish.
Even after all the frustration I endured finishing the first part of the N. Sane Trilogy — I've still not taken Crash 2: Cortex Strikes Back or Crash 3: Warped for a proper spin yet — I weirdly don't regret the experience. If anything, it gives me fresh appreciation for how far games have come since 1996, and how much better many now are at respecting their audiences' time. It also further hammer homes just how incredible the supremely elegant, effortlessly playful Super Mario 64 was for its time — Nintendo's masterpiece predates Naughty Dog's platformer by six months.
Crash, spending the last week with you has been an eye-opening experience. Let's absolutely never do it again.

The concept of child advertising is as old as other forms of popular advertising themes and techniques. The idea originated when marketers realized the powerful impact child advertising can create in terms of increased sales and customer base. The fact that preferences and desires developed during childhood years can have a long lasting effect, marketers have become keen to develop brand loyalty among kids at a very early age (Schlosser, 43).
The effects of child advertising can be generally divided into two brad categories, i.e. short-term and long-term. The short-term effects are usually increased sales due to increased interest and desire of the advertised products to children. Since children are not the decision makers, they act as a surrogate salesperson to prevail upon their parents to make the purchase decision. This is usually accomplished by children through one of the several nagging techniques, which include pleading, persistent, forceful, sugar coated, threatening, pity, and demonstrative (Schlosser, 43). These are basically different persuasive techniques that children use to coerce their parents into fulfilling their wish. As the parents are already in the effective stage, the children move them into the conative or action stage. Since decision response model of children is different from the traditional model, it was imperative upon marketers to separate the decision maker from the influencer. It is important to note that the consumer and purchase decision makers are different in this scenario. The other impact of child advertising is long-term and is intended to affect the child even after he grows up. Since the experiences of childhood years leave an important mark on the child, marketers try to develop a long-term relationship with him from the outset. This means creating brand loyalty with the customer for a long time, which could affect his or her purchase decisions when he or she becomes a father or a mother. Other benefits include generating positive image and referrals for other parents. This is why the concept of "cradle to grave advertising" is being followed by marketers to develop long-term and positive association with their customers (Schlosser, 44).
Recognizing the need for children advertising, minors' clubs have also been targeted as affective avenues to reach children. There was an outburst of children clubs during 1980's to solicit important information on their demographics. This helped the marketers to offer tailor-made solutions to different segments of the children market. Markets have also been using other techniques to learn about the preferences and desires of their potential young customers. They include focus groups, surveys, reading literature on children, and observing children during normal timings at their home or outside to ascertain their behavior. Certain other methods, e.g. "quadrant analysis", have been used by marketers to develop mascots. All these methods were used to know more and more about children, so that tailor-made products or solutions can be offered to them.
The fast food companies, like Mac Donald's, have long targeted children in their advertisements to generate additional demand for their products. The 'Happy Meal' is one such example where additional hype has been created by offering more than just food. In fact, the toy manufacturing companies have co-branded with fast food companies to generate additional sales of meals as well as toys. The idea is to lure the customer by associating the product offering with the need to have a toy for the child besides having the food. This has attracted not just kids but also adults, who primarily bought happy meal for toys only. Similarly, McDonalds's venture with Disneyland has successfully attracted attention by offering meals in the theme parks. McDonald lands were yet another idea that successfully captured the child market by fulfilling one of the basic needs of kids, i.e. playing. Today the alliance between fast food and toy manufacturers has expanded to include sports leagues as well as Hollywood studios. Notable, names like KFC and Taco Bell have partnered with leagues like National basketball Association, NCAA and the Olympics. Since children spend a lot of time in watching TV these days, it is pertinent to use this medium for reaching them. Realizing the power and importance of television advertising, fast food companies have collaborated with third parties to produce children series that fulfill their entertainment needs. Children videos and programs now include a mix of fast food ads and entertainment. "The Wacky Adventures of Ronald McDonald" is one such example (Schlosser, 44). The idea underpinning all these initiatives is to motivate children to buying certain products or services. In the whole process, value is being created for a different set if stakeholders in different forms.
However, the child marketing practices have been criticized since their inception. It has been argued that since children are not being able to make responsible decisions for themselves, exposing them to advertising that coerces them to perform a certain action is ethically wrong. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) unsuccessfully tried in 1978 to ban all sorts of advertising aimed at children less than seven years of age. The move received commendation as well as condemnation from different stakeholders (Schlosser, 47). Some of the leading proponents of ban included several consumer rights groups, Child Welfare League and American Academy of Pediatrics, while the obvious opponents included National Association of Broadcasters and Toys Manufacturers of America. Despite the debate on the ethical status of child advertising, the practice continues unabated by the industry. The important thing to realize is that while child advertising basically aims at achieving business goals, it also creates value for other stakeholders in the process. The winners at the end of day are not just business corporations, but the children themselves.

1. If you click on the "Cancel transaction" button in the email, the transaction will be canceled and the coins will be returned to your balance right away.
2. If you open the pending transaction in the app, there is a "Cancel transaction" button there too.

Philadelphia Film Festival
October 20 & 24, 2013
Sen, who in addition to directing also wrote, shot, edited, and scored Mystery Road, has crafted one of the most distinctive Australian films in recent memory. Upon returning to his remote outback hometown, Jay Swan, played to square-jawed perfection by Aaron Pedersen, finds himself a man on the outside. He's derided and dismissed by his white colleagues on the police force, as well as his Aboriginal community, which now views him with suspicion. Even his wife and daughter are not immune to this bias. When a young girl is found dead in a drainage ditch, Swan is assigned to the case, although it's quickly apparent that no one expects him to solve anything. Nonetheless, Swan doggedly digs for answers, gradually uncovering the dark secrets of his dusty, sun-blanched town. While the visual stylings of Sen's film recall classic Westerns, complete with cowboy hats, rifles, and sweeping vistas at sunset, the tone is pure 1970s neo-noir, where lone men like Swan fight for answers in a morally ambiguous landscape and redemption carries a heavy price.

The For Eyes Foundation
Making a Positive Impact in the Florida Community
For Eyes Foundation Mission: Address, educate, coordinate and provide aid and relief to those in need of vision care.
For Eyes, one of the national leaders in optical retail recently announced the establishment of the For Eyes Foundation 501 (c)(3), a non-profit dedicated to improving eye health in the underserved communities of Florida.
To celebrate World Sight Day and give back to the community, the Foundation hosted an inaugural event in Hialeah, Florida. On Tuesday, October 9th, for the first time ever, For Eyes launched the For Eyes Mobile Unit, a van equipped with the latest digital eye exam technology, to promote and deliver eye exams on-site at the Salvation Army. With the help of Hialeah's Salvation Army and the donated time of Dr. Carlos Mesa, For Eyes was able to provide comprehensive eye exams to several members in the local community. Those members who needed a prescription then received a free pair of glasses, which were fabricated in the local For Eyes manufacturing lab.
"Creating a charitable foundation has been a long-standing goal of ours and we are excited to see the impact it has on eye health in traditionally at-risk communities," said Jose Costa, CEO of For Eyes by GrandVision. "We're also thrilled to be mobile and have the ability to visit all areas of our home state to make a positive impact. And, World Sight Day was the perfect kickoff for our Foundation's vision."
For Eyes optometrists or nearby Independent Doctors of Optometry are ready to help you see better. Each optometrist is fully licensed and trained to give a comprehensive eye exam and check for common eye problems. You can feel confident that your vision is in friendly, capable hands. For more information, go to www.foreyes.com.
About For Eyes Foundation
The For Eyes Foundation 501 (c)(3), founded by For Eyes by GrandVision in 2018, provides eye care and relief to those in at-risk communities. Designed to make a local positive impact, the foundation will devote time, energy and resources to eliminating and alleviating blindness by providing eye exams to underserved areas.

Sonia Khan left Downing Street in dramatic circumstances.
The former adviser to Chancellor Philip Hammond had been retained by his successor at No 11, Sajid Javid.
But the Met Police issued a statement on Friday confirming that on Thursday night "a police officer stationed at the door of No 10 Downing Street escorted a woman from the front door to exit gates as she did not have a security pass at the time".
Security clearance had been withdrawn from Ms Khan after she had been summoned to a meeting with the prime minister's senior adviser and de facto chief of staff Dominic Cummings.
There appears to be an informal investigation being conducted into the leak of the Operation Yellowhammer documents – commissioned under the previous regime at Downing Street – setting out the potential consequences of a no-deal Brexit.
A Downing Street source had previously pointed the finger at an unnamed former minister for the Yellowhammer leak – prompting Mr Hammond to write to Boris Johnson to "acknowledge that no former minister could have leaked this document" and "to apologise for the misleading briefing from No 10".
More widely, though, there is less tolerance of even low-level leaks since Mr Johnson took over as PM.
At the meeting with Mr Cummings, Ms Khan handed over both her personal and work phones, and her phone logs were checked.
There was evidence she had been in touch with former colleagues who had worked for Mr Hammond.
However, there was no evidence that Ms Khan had been involved in leaking any sensitive government information.
No reason was given for her dismissal, but it has been suggested the issue was whether she could be trusted to be transparent with No 10.
The BBC understands that Mr Javid has voiced his anger about the sacking, and a Whitehall source said this was an "unhelpful political row" between the chancellor and Boris Johnson, which was a "distraction from what the two men wanted to talk about – more funding for public services".
This incident follows the recent departure of another of Mr Javid's advisers and a female former adviser to cabinet minister Gavin Williamson who had moved to No 10.
A former minister told the BBC he believed the latest dismissal was "ultra vires" and in conflict with the Ministerial Code, as staffing matters should be the responsibility of the relevant minister – in this case, the chancellor.
But Whitehall's code of conduct does allow the prime minister to withdraw consent from the appointment of a special adviser by one of his ministers.
This happened to Mr Johnson himself as foreign secretary, when Prime Minister Theresa May's team blackballed Will Walden – the former BBC journalist who had worked for Mr Johnson at City Hall.
And it is understood the PM has also blocked some of his cabinet ministers from making their first-choice appointments.
One insider says the bigger picture is that, with Downing Street under new management, the disciplinary process has to be reset – and that the gender of those who have left is irrelevant.
After a period marked by resignations and rebellions in the last days and weeks of Mrs May's tenure, there has been a renewed focus on getting a grip on government.
Those who have not quite realised the ground rules have changed have found they are being forced to change careers.

Walking, cycling holiday - stay in Cheshire and it's all on your doorstep!
Wherever you end up staying in Cheshire, you won't be short of good food and drink. The county has a reputation for dairy farming and prides itself on the finest milk, cream and cheese. Hollies Farm Shop at Tarporley has won several awards. There are regular farmers markets across the area and some top quality local restaurants. Renting a vacation home in Runcorn, self-catering retreats in Wildnes, holiday houses in Frodsham, country cottages near Holmes Chapel, self-catering near Nantwich or an idyllic cottage near Malpas - all are wonderful ways to spend a holiday in Cheshire. Renting can give a relaxing and welcoming home from home holiday experience.
Keen and amateur cyclist will love the Cheshire Cycleway which boasts tow paths, hills, moorland, tarmac roads and quiet lanes - rent a a bike or bring yours on the back of your car.
Walkers and nature lovers staying in Cheshire are well catered for by the Sandstone Trail, This was originally opened in 1974 but has been recently extended to link the towns of Frodsham and Whitchurch. The train is split in to three sections of around 10 miles (17km). Each section generally makes for an enjoyable day's walk, but the terrain varies dramatically so it's best to plan a suitable route for your abilities. You may have to deviate from the trail to reach pubs and cafes, but you could always take a long a picnic instead.

The Australian Men's Hockey Team has secured a berth into their 6th straight Olympic Games semi final defeating Pakistan 7-0. The victory seals top spot in Pool A for the world number one team, who will now face Germany (world rank 3rd).
With an Olympic Semi Final match on the line for both teams, it was Australia who made their intentions clear from the first whistle, scoring two goals in the opening 6 minutes of the match.
Australia's Captain for the match, Liam de Young, converted a penalty corner to get Australia off to the perfect start 5 minutes into the match. Veteran defender and Australian Co-Captain Mark Knowles followed suit and sent home a penalty stroke earned by Birthday Boy Matthew Butturini. Continue reading →

Globecomm's 3Q revenue up
The fiscal third-quarter revenue of Globecomm Systems Inc. rose 78 percent to $110.9 million, from $62.5 million a year earlier, the Hauppauge-based satellite-communications provider said.
The revenue rose in part because of Globecomm's acquisition last year of ComSource, a Frederick, Md.-based company. And net income declined for the same reason. It fell 3 percent to $2.9 million, or 13 cents a share, from a year earlier $3 million, or 14 cents a share in the quarter ended March 31. The company, in making the announcement Wednesday, attributed the decline to a $2.8 million charge against earnings because of a higher payout to ComSource shareholders.

My friend Phred-Fred, a professional clown and balloon-maker, asked me for help the other day. The Huntsville, Alabama, resident wants me to help him generate five-hundred visits to a video he just had made about his balloon-making (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iKO2EEjVjg ).
My family met Fred Wells while we lived in Atlanta, Georgia.
My husband Monte, daughter Sandy and son Nolan moved to Stone Mountain, Georgia, in August 1982. Monte had just retired from teaching physics at Slippery Rock University (PA) and was beginning seminary at Candler School of Theology, Emory University, Atlanta. We chose to live in Stone Mountain because the good friends we made in Slippery Rock, Shirl and Wayne Murray, had moved there several years previously.
At the time Nolan was interested in clowning. When I heard about a clowning class in December 1982 I enrolled him and presented the entrance form to him for a Christmas gift. The classes started January 18, 1983, on his eleventh birthday.
On the sixteenth of January I was told he was too young to register for the class—he had to be eighteen. I objected, not wanting to disappoint Nolan. I was given the name of the teacher who said yes, he could enroll, he could try it. It was a great experience for Nolan.
In July 1983 Nolan was hospitalized for a ruptured appendix. After his surgery he developed an abscess and had another surgery. The combination was devastating and he wasn't doing well. I thought a visit from one of the members of his clown class would cheer him, so I called the restaurant where I could contact the teacher with my request. The teacher, Dave, wasn't there but Fred was.
Fred had participated in the class briefly, and was willing to visit Nolan. Later Fred called me to ask if I could make a clown hat for him (I had a craft and sewing business in Atlanta).
And so a friendship began that continues today, not only for me but also for my family.
Before we left Atlanta our home became Phred's residence while he did gigs in the Atlanta area. We had soon discovered we had a friend in common, Mark Murray, son of Shirl and Wayne.
In 1983 we had to have him investigated because we were foster parents to a thirteen-year-old pregnant girl who planned on releasing her baby for adoption and he planned on staying with us while she was in our care. It felt strange doing a background check on a friend, but he took it in good humor. His pastor and Mark were two of our references.
One of the events he participated in was the Atlanta Arts Festival. One day, during the summer of 1984, he took Nolan with him, and they performed as street clowns. Nolan earned forty dollars that day, not bad for a twelve-year-old.
When we moved to New Castle, Pennsylvania, Fred was one of our visitors. While in that community I also made him a royal purple and lemon yellow striped full costume. At the time fabric stores had discontinued carrying lemon-yellow fabric (they were selling school-bus yellow instead). Fortunately I knew about the Amish fabric shop in New Wilmington, and was able to purchase the correct yellow fabric.
After we moved to Jamestown, Pennsylvania, Phred asked me to make him an embroidered vest. We were pleased at how that turned out.
Occasionally Phred and his wife, Grace, travel north to visit family in Ohio. They stop by our home while in the north. In July 2000 we were looking for a retirement home in the Ligonier area. We had money down on a nice property in Unity Township, and explored it with Phred and Grace. We were all irritated when the real estate agent called Monte and I seven times on July 4th. Otherwise, we had a nice visit. (Later the agent offered us our money back—he recognized we knew he had lied to us—but that's another story.)
We enjoyed a visit with Phred and Grace just last July. While here we sat on our patio and visited. We also went to the latest Flight 93 crash site memorial, the Flight 93 chapel (unfortunately, it was closed), Quecreek mine memorial, and the Coal Miners Café.
On Phred's last visit to Ohio he didn't stop. In early November he was part of a two-bus group that went to the Dayton suburbs to encourage people to get out to vote, and to do so early. Since I was undecided on who to vote for he spent quite a bit of time trying to convince me to vote Republican.
Phred (and Grace) is among the great friends I've gathered on my life's journey. In that spirit, I invite you to help him attain his goal of five-hundred visits to his video by clicking on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1iKO2EEjVjg .

Transcript coleridge and kubla khan
Pick one of the dreams you recorded. What significant images and feelings stood out to you? What significance do they have to your waking life? Why do you think you had this dream? (Try and answer these questions for the other person if you recorded someone else's dream) Carl Jung (1875-1961) Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) 1. Expression of current conditions in outside world 2. Distinctive language of symbols, images, metaphors 3. Compensation for imbalances in the psyche 4. Archetypes (universally understood symbol or pattern of behavior, a prototype upon which others are copied, patterned, or emulated). In psychology an archetype is a model of a person, personality, or behavior. Examples: The hero, the trickster, the child. 1. Believes sex is a root cause of almost everything in dreams 2. The unconscious can be disturbing so it filters through symbolic language 3. "Free Association" your association with certain images and things Example: Car freedom, journey, control Similarities in Dream Theory 1. Dreams have importance 2. Dreams speak with symbols 3. Dreams deal with the unconscious mind {Dreams and Writing} • How is interpreting someone else's dream and interpreting someone else's writing similar? Cornell Notes… 1. In the left column write questions that you have about Coleridge 2. In the right column write answers as we go over them in the power point. Samuel Taylor Coleridge and "Kubla Khan" The Life and Times of Coleridge • Coleridge was born in 1772 in Devonshire, England. • Like Wordsworth, Coleridge lost his father at a young age (9 years old to be exact) • He became introverted and the result of this was a lonely and friendless youth. Imagination and the Outdoors • Deciding to spend a lot of time alone, Coleridge turned inward with his imagination and outward to nature as an escape. • He loved imaginative, adventurous and exotic stories such as Arabian Nights. • He loved the outdoors so much that he nearly lost his life on one occasion in which he spent the night outdoors and came close to freezing to death. Near Death Experience • The event of almost freezing to death left him with a severe case of rheumatism (a kind of arthritis) that plagued him for the rest of his life. • At the time, opium was a common treatment for such ailments. Coleridge became addicted to the drug, but felt very remorseful about it. • Quote: "I may say that I was seduced into the accursed Habit ignorantly." Education • Like Wordsworth, Coleridge was educated at Cambridge. • Again, like Wordsworth he was inspired by the ideals of the French Revolution. • Coleridge had heard of and started reading Wordsworth's work and was greatly moved by what he read. Forces Unite! • When Coleridge was 25 years old, he met Wordsworth and the two had instant poetic chemistry. • Ironically, at this time, it was Wordsworth who was in a "creative funk" that Coleridge helped to break. • They became good friends and roommates along with Wordsworth's sister and best friend, Dorothy. The Beginning of a New Era • As we now know, the Romantic Age is usually considered "born" through the publication of Lyrical Ballads, a collaborative collection of poetry by Wordsworth and Coleridge. • Coleridge's "Kubla Khan" is featured in the collection. "Kubla Khan": Paradise, Interrupted "In Xanadu did Kubla Khan / A stately pleasure-dome decree..." The Backstory… • One night Coleridge wasn't feeling well. To dull the pain, he took a dose of opium (used as a medicine in the 19th century). He fell asleep and had a strange dream about a Mongol emperor named Kubla Khan. • Coleridge dreamed that he was actually writing a poem in his sleep, and when he woke up after a few hours, he sat down to record the dream poem. He meant to write several hundred lines, but he was interrupted by someone from Porlock who had come to see him on business. • When he came back to the poem, he had forgotten the rest. The last stanza was written after his visitor left. "Kubla Khan" is a BALLAD -- Hence, Lyrical Ballads • Traditionally, most ballads are narrative in nature, with a self contained story • They are often concise and relying on imagery, rather than description • Most often, literary ballads use a regular stanza form of 4-line, 6-line, or 8-line stanzas • Generally you will find a regular rhyme scheme and rhythm, but this may vary from stanza to stanza (for a reason) • Pay close attention to how the poem sounds - many poets chose the form to achieve an effective sound (humorous, sad, lonely, eerie) as well as for story and meaning On to the Poem! • Close your eyes and listen as I read • When you open your eyes, sketch the first image you remember from the poem {Questions for Thought…} • What is the story or narrative of this poem? • How is the stanza written after the interruption different in mood from the others? • How do dreams and Romanticism relate to one another? Do they share similarities? • In many ways, "Kubla Khan" is a poem whose interpretation depends on a knowledge of events that occurred outside of the poem itself. How does the story of the person from Porlock affect the ways in which the poem can be understood? Is it possible to find any significance in "Kubla Khan" without knowledge of Coleridge's opium dream? {Questions Continued} • Which characteristics of Romanticism are evident in the poem? • How does the structure of his ballad create/add meaning to the poem? • How/why did Coleridge use his dreams to influence his poetry? {Homework Response} • Does an experience need to be REAL for it to have an impact? Are imagined emotions in dreams just as valid and significant as those in our waking life? Refer to "Kubla Khan" in your answer.

The biological process for destroying old mustard agent weapons at the Pueblo Chemical Depot is underway and working, but the Army will need to truck about 250,000 gallons of waste liquid to Port Arthur, Texas, beginning next week.
That announcement came from the Army's Assembled Chemical Weapons Alternatives (ACWA) program on Friday.
It wasn't unexpected. The Army had advised the Colorado Citizens Advisory Commission earlier this spring that it needed to dispose of the stored hydrolysate liquids and was looking at trucking it to an incinerator in Texas.
The local commission, which includes Pueblo County Commissioner Terry Hart and District Attorney Jeff Chostner, said they were concerned the Army might begin looking at trucking waste off the Pueblo depot site instead of destroying it there in the new demilitarization plant.
"The commission let (ACWA) know there were concerns about the trucking plan, but we have been reassured this is a temporary fix," said John Norton, another commission member. "The plant is operating, weapons are being destroyed."
Gregory Mohrman, site manager at the Pueblo Chemical Agent-Destruction Pilot Plant, said in letter Friday that the trucking operation would begin Monday and be completed within 30 days.
"I again want to assure you that this is not expected to become standard practice here at the plant," the letter says.
But disposing of the stored hydrolysate is necessary to bring the neutralization plant into full operation.
"Even though issues have arisen during the first several months of plant operation, it is noteworthy that more than 38,500 munitions and 225 U.S. tons of chemical agent are gone forever," the letter said.
The Pueblo depot stored more than 780,000 chemical weapons munitions, and 2,611 tons of mustard agent.
The new Pueblo plant destroys those munitions and neutralizes the mustard agent with a water-and-bacteria process.

Drawing in Stories
To decorate an Instagram Story, you should know about the "drawing" option. With it, you can edit a video or photo and make it unique. To use the "drawing" option, go to the story menu and find the "Edit" button.
Types of brushes, their sizes
Instagram developers have come up with different types of brushes that differ in texture and size.
- A regular brush is medium size. This is the default tool. Using a regular brush, you can draw a line of medium thickness.
- The highlighter is a square line. You can edit the degree of transparency of the marker. Some users draw over all photos with a marker, and use an eraser for some part of the picture. Followers are interested in such a photo riddle and go to the main profile to see what is hidden under the marker layer.
- A neon brush is a bit like a regular one. But its distinguishing feature is the small line backlight. Moreover, the main line is drawn in white, and the backlight with any selected color.
- A brush resembling an imitation of wax crayons. Draws a fuzzy, but smooth line.

Color selection
When the user draws in the Story with the help of brushes, they can choose any color from the offered range. The color catalog is located on the bottom panel. To select a suitable shade, tap it and hold your finger. If you use the tool with a single tap, you will draw dots with a regular brush and short stripes with a highlighter.
Beautiful text in Stories
Instagram users figured out how to achieve the effect of 3D text. For this, write two identical texts. Then one text is superimposed on the second one with a gentle movement, but with a small shift left. Thus, you get a 3D effect.
Various tools and features allow to make story special and attractive. Users love Instagram news, which means they will follow the interesting accounts. An increase in the number of followers has a positive effect on the page ranking, which means increase of the revenue. You can also increase popularity on Instagram using the ALL-SMM service. Specialists will help win followers or likes in a short time using the legal methods.
