Every Château Tells a Story #12: le Château de l'Astorguié, Parisot

The Wheels Turn at Teysseroles

Work Continues to Restore La Chapelle de Teysseroles

Every Château has a Story: le Château de Cornusson
The word "fairy-tale" when applied to a château usually makes me cringe. But there is something a little magical about the château de Cornusson, with its jumble of towers and turrets. You get tantalising glimpses of it peeping above … Continue reading

Fateful fête at Teysseroles? Not this time

The Changing Battlefield is the ninth episode of the Log Horizon 2 anime and adapts the third chapter of The Gold of the Kunie. It aired on November 29, 2014.
On Christmas Eve the Abyssal Shaft Raid Party come upon Ruseato of Seven Prison (Luseat of the Seventh Garden in the Crunchroll subs), a level 97 raid boss. After doing some recon, they engage the boss in battle. Shiroe predicts they have a fifty percent chance of success.
The first time the boss does an Area of Effect (AoE) attack there are two instant kills (Enkaatanto & Federico) and three badly wounded (HighlandSky, Junzou & Ragoumaru). They revived the dead and healed the wounded while Sasameyuki kept count for the ability cool down time. Junzou and Ukiyo note that while that skill wasn't new, it was a lot more powerful than in The Nine Prisons of Heroes. He also has new moves which are equally as powerful.
The second time he does the attack everyone survives and they gain some confidence. Ruseato then does a new AoE attack called Evil Poison Root which prevents all those affected from moving and cause some damage as well as drops attack speed and damage. Ruseato also ignored Dinclon's Anchor Howl and then started spinning around his giant ax which then flew around the room hitting most (if not all) those present. The result was eleven dead.
When Dinclon stepped back to be healed and Naotsugu took over as tank, the raid boss started changing, shedding his dark exterior to become his True White Knight Mode. Ukiyo was surprised and said that before you had to trigger something in the dungeon for that to happen but now he seemed to be able to do it whenever he wanted. The fallen slivers of his armor quickly rose up to become Shadow Vanguards. They kill the Shadow Vanguard and realize that once killed they return to Ruseato and heal him resulting in him returning to his Black Knight form with more HP.
After this happens several times Shiroe says the problem is the number of attackers. There number of Shadow Vanguard is directly related to the number of people who attack the boss; if you drop the number of attackers, there would be less of the Vanguard to deal with. They change the plan to only have only those with the strongest attacks hitting the boss, thus limiting the number of Shadow Vanguards that appear.
Wiped OutAs the raid party slowly whittles down Ruseato's HP, they fail to notice the gates behind them slowly opening. Meanwhile, Demiqas furiously attacks Ruseato and the Shadow Vanguard, aiming to raise his levels, polish his skills, and win better equipment in order to defeat Shiroe. As Sasameyuki counts, a large shadow suddenly appears over him. Looking up, he barely manages a cry when Tarutauruga of Fourth Prison smashes him with its club, instantly killing him. As William mutters its name in shock, Ukiyo's scream drags their attention to Ibura Habura of Third Prison, which had appeared in front of the first party. The combined assault from 3 raid bosses wipes out the the entire party, as they curse the impossibility and unfairness of the raid.
After the raid party wipes out, Roe2 is seen rising out of the snow in a separate location.
Mare Tranquillitatis
Upon his death Shiroe is relieves memories of his lonely childhood back in the real world. He comes to understand what William meant when he said that memory loss was trivial; in Shiroe's case, he forgot the name of an Indian restaurant that used to be on his street before it closed down.
After finding the resolution to move on, he is then transported to Mare Tranquillitatis which is a reproduction of the Moon. There he meets Akatsuki. After spending some time with Akatsuki they both vow to try again, after which he awakens back in the Abyssal Shaft.
- When Shiroe looks at Dinclon's status screen in one shot, the status screen is not properly mirrored, and faces us rather than him.[1] This mistake is repeated multiple times in the episode.

Eli Abada joined the Nina Collective of artists in late 2017. He experimented with printmaking and drawing before focusing on painting with acrylics, his preferred medium. He uses bright, primary colours to create boldly contrasting images of insects, fossils, and animals.
Through his artwork at the Nina, Eli has discovered an interest in animals that he hopes to pursue outside the studio. He has visited the Edmonton Humane Society and is looking forward to volunteering with animals in the future.
In 2018 Eli's work was included in the group exhibition "30 x 30" in Glasgow, Scotland.

Former Britain's Got Talent semi-finalists The Jive Aces entertain Romford shoppers
PUBLISHED: 16:01 02 July 2018 | UPDATED: 16:01 02 July 2018
A popular jive and swing band who were semi-finalists on Britain's Got Talent entertained Romford shoppers as part of their anti-drugs campaign.
Having recently celebrated 21 years together in the same line-up, The Jive Aces performed in market Place on one of the hottest afternoons of the year.
The band, comprised of lead singer Ian Clarkson, double bass player Ken Smith, saxophonist John Fordham, trombonist Alex Douglas, pianist Vince Hurley and drummer Peter Howell – who are renowned for their colourful yellow suits – first met as teenagers in East London.
Lead singer, Ian Clarkson said: "People look up to musicians and see them taking drugs and think that they then have to use them to be a great artist.
"What they don't realise is that without drugs they would be a lot happier, play a lot better and live a lot longer."
Say No To Drugs, Say Yes To Life, is a youth drug education and prevention campaign sponsored by the Church of Scientology.
The six-piece band has supported the Say No to Drugs, Say Yes To Life campaign for many years, performing concerts all over the world to raise awareness of the dangers of drugs and the solutions to drug problems.
The group were winners of BBC TV's Opportunity Knocks, and competed in Britain's Got Talent in 2012.

Thesis Title
The platforms: An examination of New Zealand special air service (NZSAS) campaigns from Borneo 'Confrontation' to the Vietnam War, 1954-1971
Read article at Massey Research Online:
Mr Ball examined the chronological progression of the New Zealand Special Air Service (SAS) through two of its most influential Cold War deployments; the Borneo 'Confrontation' between during 1965 and 1966, and the South Vietnam campaign between December 1968 and February 1971. He also examined the underlying success and value of a small but strongly independent military unit that was compelled to operate under the command of larger Special Forces coalition counterparts and the impact different political, tactical and cultural characteristics had on these joint-operational deployments. Mr Ball found that the New Zealand SAS operations in South Vietnam and Borneo - the demonstration of the highest standards of patrol techniques, tracking, ambushing and fire discipline, and above all, operational professionalism that has been the hallmark of New Zealand''smilitary history - provided the evolutionary 'platforms' from which today's highly skilled and enviable New Zealand Special Forces have emerged.

This month's recipes have garnered some really pretty food photos for everyone, right? Good choices, fellow bloggers! 🙂
Okay, so the roasted tomatoes with this dish are fabulous with that deep umami tomato flavor really coming to the fore after roasting with some herbs. Oh my!
For the "cheese" I couldn't find goat yogurt and I didn't want to use regular ol' yogurt, so I bought kefir and used that to approximate more the tanginess of goat milk. Very tasty, even without the tomatoes, and my husband I slathered that stuff on crackers, bread, everything we could find.
What a great month of recipes!

9 (2009 movie) review after the break…
9 (2009 movie) review…
Nine sack-filled humanoid robots must survive an onslaught of evil non-humanoid robots in a post-apocalyptic world in "9," a 2009 CGI-animated film.
"9" started out as a visually impressive short film and, once granted a larger budget and longer playing time, became a full motion picture. Unfortunately, it's the shorter film that leaves the longer lasting impression.
Both the movie and the short film are cut from the same cloth – See one and there are few surprises in the other. Indeed, the short film plays out like a synopsis of the full-length movie so if you don't want to spoil the movie or short film for yourself, don't watch either… Or, for that matter, read this review because I'm about to spoil the heck out of both.
In the world of CGI films, few stray into a realm harsher then a PG rating. "The Incredibles," a Pixar-backed CGI film, garnished a PG rating because of it's slightly more mature themes of suggested marital infidelities and other tense scenes (including a stress-filled sequence involving a missile locked onto a small jet airplane). Needless to write, "9" deserves it's PG-13 rating with tense action sequences involving bad guy robots reeking havoc with the lives of our nine protagonists and it's consequences. The only reason why blood isn't spilled in this movie is because our protagonists lack the liquid; In it's place, though, is a green flowing light through their mouths and eye sockets. In this movie, there are casualties.
The nine robots in "9" each have their own peculiar design which makes for easy recognition – "1" is the overly cautious and conservative leader in danger of being mistaken for a snobby religious leader; "2" is an elderly scientific brainiac; "3" & "4" are mute book nerds who always work as a team; "5" is 2's apprentice who, because of a war injury, has only one eye; "6" acts like a slightly crazed shaman who draws sketches and knows a little more about the entire history of the struggle then he's letting on; "7" is the spunky, combative "female" (yes, did you not think there'd be at least one, even in this kind of movie?) who wears a bird skull for a helmet; "8" is a bulky, less intelligent enforcer of 1's rule & "9" is our average-looking main protagonist.
The movie makes the mistake of trying to flesh out the main questions left unanswered (although also unposed) from the short film – Why is there a post-apocalypse? Where are the humans? Why are robots fighting one another? Why only nine "good" robots? Why does "5" have only one eye? Where the short film is tight and leaves few unsatisfying questions, the movie feels overly long and leaves few satisfying answers.
Chief amongst the flaws of the movie is a fundamental storytelling mistake that never should have left the proverbial drawing board – NEVER make your protagonist guilty of causing intentional harm to another good character. Ever.
In "9," the character 9 purposely joins two objects together that, in essence, causes the direct death of one of the good robots and the main villain to be resurrected. In fact, this one action alone eventually causes the death of six of the good characters. This plot point is inexcusable! Anyone who actually thinks about the story of "9" immediately has little to no sympathy for the 9 character because his direct actions cause most of the bad events in the movie to occur!
Another main fault of the movie is the "false climax," where by we all think that the main villain is dead but, really, it isn't. It would be excusable if the "near-fatality" was plausible (ex. the main villain plummets down a cliff but manages to catch a branch that no one can see and climbs back up) but the incident here is that there is a massive explosion that levels an entire building. Clearly, if a building made of concrete and steel can be thoroughly decimated, one would think that an evil robot made of less sturdy components wouldn't have a chance. Me thinks someone watched the ending of the movie "Terminator" one too many times but even the director of that film, James Cameron, had an alibi – The robot was from the future and at least his fleshy outer shell had been completely wiped out. Here, there is no excuse except to keep the film going another fifteen or so minutes and to thin the herd of 3 additional characters.
Finally, the mysterious "artifact" that brought the machine alive is never explained. Why does the artifact need to be turned against the villain for the villain to be destroyed? A huge explosion should have killed the villain and an artillery shell nearly seems to kill the villain as well. What's so special about taking the artifact away from the villain and "using" it against the villain? It makes no sense. The rationale given (that the "killed" good robots are "trapped" inside of it) has no payoff because, at the end of the film, they are all revealed to be "ghosts" that simply vanish up into the air where it starts to rain. Will the rain sprout new robots like the surviving good robots? This was very confusing and very unsatisfying. The ghosts are finally "free," but to do what? Couldn't the villain be killed and THEN the artifact removed? I didn't get it.
Visually, the movie is impressive and the style of the film was appealing. While I was put off that the film is set in a thinly-veiled England (why not just a generic setting? Or why not just come out and place it in England complete with English actors?), the movie performed well enough to distract me from pondering if the location should have been a hindrance and that's a positive.
"9" is a movie that, like a talented citizen who turns to being a crystal meth user, has made some terrible decisions in it's history. That's too bad – What could be weeded out of the movie was quite nice but that's only if you're willing to forgo the reality of what the film actually is. Choose the short film instead – In that version, "9" is actually someone whom you can root for and the short film simply makes more sense.

With the six balances of the BM Series, you can choose a capacity as high as 520 g or a microbalance with readability down to 1 µg. All BM balances offer built-in features, which let you handle with ease even trace quantities of valuable substances.
No weighing errors due to electrostatic charges
Electrostatic charges are the main source of error in precision weighing. To avoid this source of error, all A&D BM Micro Analytical Balances are equipped with a fanless internal ionizer and metallized glass draft shields.
Ergonomic, efficient and flexible
A large weighing chamber with a removable separation plate, interlockable sliding doors and a special double ring structure around the weighing pan offer more space and easier operation than any conventional µg balance.
Reliable results
All BM balances are equipped with a motor driven internal calibration with a built in calibration mass. This feature saves time and money as the balance can be calibrated very quickly without requiring any expensive external calibration mass. This self calibration can be executed manually at the touch of a button, or automatically whenever it is required because of ambient temperature fluctuations. Furthermore, the BM balances permanently analyse the influence of drafts or vibrations on the stability of the displayed value and adjust their response characteristics automatically.
The BM balances can store up to 200 sets of weighing data or 50 sets of calibration data in their internal memory. The data can be output to two two different external devices (eg. to a printer and a PC) simultaneously. An optional LAN-Ethernet Interface provides an easy integration of the BM balances in computer networks.
All BM balances come with a data logger, which can store up to 5000 weighing results with date and time. This data can easily be exported to a personal computer at any time without requiring to install any special driver software.
Static electricity can be a fatal source of error in precision weighing - eliminating static electricity often dramatically improves weighing accuracy. For this reason, all BM balances feature metallized draft shields and a neutralization chamber equipped with an ionizer. To completely eliminate electrostatic charges, it is sufficient to place the sample for 1 second into this chamber before weighing. This procedure is suitable for all types of samples, including very fine powders, as the ionizer works fanless.
Inter lockable sliding doors which let you perform weighing more efficiently, a removable separation plate which allows to enlarge the weighing chamber to weigh large flasks or cylinders and a wide range of different pans and holder make the BM balances a flexible and user friendly choice for a wide range of weighing tasks.

Both UBC Okanagan basketball programs are bringing in experienced lead assistants to navigate the upcoming Canada West basketball season.
On the men's side, interim head coach Ken Olynyk has brought in a former Atlantic University Sports coach of the year.
Thom Gillespie has 14 years of U SPORTS head coaching experience, including twice earning an AUS coach of the year honors in 2001-02 and 2003-04 with the UNB Varsity Reds. Most recently, Gillespie led the Cape Breton Capers. From 2009 until 2010, he was the head coach of the TRU WolfPack
As an assistant Gillespie has another five years at the U SPORTS level with the Victoria Vikes and the UNB Varsity Reds along with a year with the Dalhousie Tigers.
From 2012 to 2016 Gillespie was the supervisor and then manager of athletics, fitness and recreation at Olds College in Olds, Alberta.
Gillespie is a level IV certified coach with a Masters Degree in Education.
Women's head coach Bobby Mitchell looked no further than Vernon for his lead assistant coach.
Lonny Mazurak replaced Mitchell as head coach role at Vernon Secondary when Mitchell left to assume the role of lead assistant at UBCO.
With over 25-years of experience, Mazurak brings an impressive resume to the role. He has spent 17 years as a head coach in the Vernon School District with most of the success at the helm of the Vernon Secondary Panthers. In his time on the bench with the Panthers, Mazurak has led VSS to seven Final Four appearance at the AA high school provincial championships, earning three medals in those trips (2 silver, 1 bronze).
Returning to the Heat coaching staff is Lisa Nickle, a UBC Sports Hall of Famer, who will be in her third season as an assistant coach for the women's program.
Also joining Mitchell's staff is a former player of his from Vernon, Diane Schuetze, who developed into a Canada West All-Star with the Thompson Rivers WolfPack.
UBC Okanagan Heat basketball assistant coaches play a key role in the delivery of the highly successful Junior Heat Club basketball program.
These four assistants, under the tutelage of the two interim head coaches, will be instrumental in developing Okanagan Valley youth basketball players into success individuals on and off the court through the sport of basketball.
Gillespie will fit right in with the Junior Heat mandate with his high level of technical expertise and his personal philosophy centered on the student athlete and his belief in the "holistic development of the person and player."
Gillespie adds, "It is essential that athletes develop skills and decision making ability to play any position on the court with confidence."
All three coaches with the women's program have extensive experience with the Junior Heat program.
Mazurak, who has coached two years with an elite Junior Heat club team, also founded the Vernon Basketball Association (VBA) and coached the first VBA club team this spring.
Developing players in the Okanagan has been a passion for Mazurak for nearly two decades and his work with the Junior Heat in the past shows his passion for the development of the game.
"I thoroughly enjoy working with the younger players in the Junior Heat program," explains Mazurak, "as we try to fuel their passion for the game and improve their skills while connecting the Heat program to the community. It's a win-win situation for all."
Not just passionate about developing players, Mazurak is also skilled, as the current Heat roster boasts a trio of his former players in Brianna Falk, Mackenzie Horst, and Jordan Korol.
Lisa Nickle has been the lead with the Junior Heat girls fall academy and has coached the U13 club team for the past three years. Diane Schuetze coached a U17 Junior Heat club team this past spring.
This group of coaches will bolster the opportunities for youth basketball in the Okanagan, and continue to develop players for the university varsity program along with becoming successful individuals.
More info on the Junior Heat Basketball club go to goheat.ca/jrheatbasketball, although spots are filling quickly there is still time to sign up for the boys and girls Junior Heat fall academy.

Virginia Tech, the largest research university in the Commonwealth of Virginia, proposes to continue its successful Virginia Tech Post-baccalaureate Research and Education program (VT-PREP) for another four years by recruiting and preparing a total of 29-32 scholars for admissions into highly reputable and productive biomedical and behavioral sciences doctoral programs at Research I universities. In the last four years, 75% of the 28 scholars who participated in the VT-PREP were accepted into highly selective doctoral programs including University of Rochester, Virginia Tech, University of Texas, and Purdue University. The current training plan will include a combination of educational, experiential, and social activities in a supportive environment that ensures development of each scholar both academically and socially. Specific objectives for this renewal include: 1. Recruit and enroll 29-32 minority students underrepresented in the biomedical and behavioral sciences to participate in a 12-month transition program as research scholars 2. Develop and implement activities and programs that will enrich and motivate scholars as well as facilitate the pursuance of a research career in the biomedical sciences. 3. Increase the number of minority applicants applying for and being accepted into graduate studies in biomedical, agricultural, and life sciences and related disciplines at Virginia Tech and improving the campus climate for diversity. Each VT PREP scholar will partcipate in enrichment activities including seminars, gateway courses, and workshops. Additionally, 75 to 80% of each scholar's time will be devoted to a mentored research activity under the guidance of VT faculty with strong research, teaching, and mentoring accomplishments in the biomedical and behavioral sciences. We anticipate the following quantifiable and qualitative outcomes from implementation of the VT PREP objectives: 1) An increased proportion of applications from minority applicants to pursue graduate education in the biomedical and behavioral sciences at VT 2) An increased awareness of Virginia Tech graduate programs and the positive environment the university has developed for minorities;3) 75 to 100% of the VT PREP scholars will pursue graduate studies in biomedical and behavioral sciences at VT and other major research institutions. The impact of PREP on VT has included helping research-intensive labs recruit and train minorities, developing a seminar series that involves reflections by scientists on their journey in science, and exposing students and faculty at HBCUs to research opportunities at VT. VT-PREP will continue to be a valued insitutional partnership between the central administration, the Graduate School and several colleges. It will be led by a three-member team of accomplished scientists with experience in training students including under represented minorities at all levels. Project Narrative The PREP will be used to train underrepresented minorities in the biomedical and behavioral sciences to become competitive for admission into highly competitive doctoral Research programs.

As one of the first steps in finding a new superintendent for the District, the Ray-Pec School Board last night voted to approve a proposal from the Missouri School Boards' Association to assist in the search process. Superintendent Dr. Kari Monsees is retiring at the end of the 2019-2020 school year.
A subcommittee of the Board considered proposals from three search firms and then recommended the proposal from MSBA to the entire Board for approval. One part of the MSBA search procedure is the collection of input from a variety of stakeholders about the characteristics desired in the next superintendent.
The District also utilized the search services of MSBA in 2012 when Dr. Monsees was hired.

Brought to you by Greedy Pixie Productions, Monsters in the Mist tells the tale of Ethan and Nettie, the sole residents of Atrapado Bay, who find themselves prisoners in their own shack as the dreaded cabra, a beast half man half goat, and the woeful siren roam the rocks outside. When they awake to the protecting moans of the orca, Ethan and Nettie rejoice in their new found freedom and waste no time in venturing out to the grove where the pulparoots grow, who's juice provides their sole guaranteed defence against the cabra's horns. Upon finding the grove ravaged by imps, Nettie steals into the night to hunt the cabra down only to find herself fatally wounded, forcing Ethan to travel outside of the orcas' range to retrieve the pulparoot at Thorhorne Nook - a journey that will change his and Nettie's life forever. With Ethan twisted by the siren's song, and the orcas' unexpected departure, Nettie finds her life unravelling as dark secrets are revealed and their story comes to a deadly end.

I have summarized the Situation Update. It refers to the petition to sign the Galactic Codex. At the end of the article you will see the linked site to the Japanese version of the Codex.
After reading it, I felt something is wrong. The original article has the translation of the petition campaign. It says that "this codex represents the legal basis for all actions of the Confederation in this and other galaxies."
I don't think it is false, but such expression is far from accurate. Currently, almost no civilization has adopted this codex in the Milky Way Galaxy. Less than five percent at most of all civilizations in the Galaxy adopted this codex before the heavenly reformation.
To sum it up, the Confederation of the Milky Way civilizations with the Blue Avians as the core civilization comprised less than five percent of all civilizations in the Galaxy. In a word, a group of the Hierarchy, which comprised less than five percent of all civilizations in the Galaxy, was expelled from the remaining civilization groups. In the post, I pointed out that the Blue Avians appeared in birds because they had got trapped into Satanism. This is why I often call the "Galactic Federation" Cobra belonged to Relative Light. As a matter of fact, I described the Federation as part of Darkness. On and after April 10 when light was showered, our Solar System has been accepted not only by the Galaxy civilizations but by the whole universe.
In that sense, it can be safely said that the past Galactic Codex has no meaning at all. Our Solar System should have already signed the Codex of true "Galactic Federation."
There are five goddesses ruling the five directions of north, south, center, east and west (ki, tsu, wo, sa and ne), who belong to the Earthly Deity 5th Level in the 1st System. The codex was signed by the center goddess. She is a woman who used to be incarnated as Empress Elisabeth of Austria.

(Note) Shanti-phula has indicated some parts of the following text in boldface type or in red letters.
Excerpt from Now Creation – May 2, 2016 –
Clearing of the Chimera group continues. Until now, the Chimera was controlling the flow of intel and communication between various factions inside our Solar System, threatening to activate strangelet and toplet bomb if information blockade would not be respected by all factions. This is how intel was compartmentalized.
Now this information barrier is slowly dissolving, various factions are beginning to communicate. The Pleiadians and other races belonging to Galactic Confederation are beginning to contact personnel in Chimera-controlled secret space programs (SSP) factions.
The Galactic Codex has been recently introduced to SSP factions in our Solar System and to many Earth subterranean factions as well. Galactic Codex is known and accepted quite universally among most of the positive races throughout the Galaxy. SSP factions are being educated right now but there is much resistance.
This is why the petition to sign the Galactic Codex has been created:
According to Dragon sources, communication between various factions below the surface of the planet has been initialized and healing of the split has begun. Resistance has communicated to me that they have attempted to reach out to Eastern Agarthan factions many times with mixed success.
On the surface of the planet, the renaissance of public private space programs continues. Bigelow Aerospace is now planning to build space stations for tourists by 2020:
I can now announce the new Ascension Conference, which will be taking place near Chania in Crete, close to one of the most important Goddess vortexes on the planet:
Again, lots of new intel will be released there, combined with amazing new Goddess energies that will assist in our inner transformation. You are more than welcome to join us on June 4th and 5th:
Victory of the Light!

Media tell us that we have reached the post fact era. But to me it seems more that we have just reached a new level within an era that has started a long time ago. The Greeks complained already 500 BC that the good speaker can undermine democracy. Propaganda and so-called framing have aggravated this problem exponentially. Facts are distorted and reality is framed with the aim of manufacturing consent of the population. The one-sided reporting about Crimea or Syria are just the recent examples.
"We had the misfortune of actually trying to talk about the problems facing America and providing real solutions," Sanders said in an interview with DemocracyNow[1]. With the new president-elect, media manipulation might just add a new modus operandi: Do not speak about the real problems. Let the masses care about the private lives of famous actors, football players and other celebrities, entertain them with sports events, soap operas and the latest Hollywood productions but do not let them come in contact with real political questions. Politics in the 'post fact' era is reduced to the vulgar utterances and the public's reaction to them.
As we have seen during the election campaign, Trump's nonsense lacking most political substance was given fare more media coverage than Bernie Sanders's statements of the factual policy.[2] Trump received between $1 and $3 billion of free air time. In comparison, Trump got between 16 to 320 times more air time than Sanders[3]. Addressing real problems earns you the boycott of the establishment, especially the media.
It might be a systemic problem, intrinsic to capitalism itself. As CBS chief executive Les Moonves said at a conference in San Francisco the Trump spectacle "may not be good for America, but it's damn good for CBS" as "CNN will make approximately $100 million in television and digital advertising revenues more than it would expect in the typical election year,".[4]
But it might as well be a desired development for the establishment. In a world where the gap between rich an poor is vaster than 1929 and two main disasters – atomic holocaust and climate change – are looming at the horizon, the world economy needs a drastic correction moving away from fossil fuel and war-profiteering.
Capitalist economic surplus is extremely unevenly distributed. The 0.1%, the establishment, do not want the masses partake in this surplus and therefore do not want a change. Their attention diverted to exaggerated threats like global terrorism[5] the masses are made to consent. Consent to give up basic rights and consent to be relegated of decision making by the rulers. Meanwhile the masses fear terror and are outraged by disgusting tweets, the 0.1% go on cashing in the profits and ignoring the world's looming catastrophes.
News and infotainment that keep discussing the emperor's clothes are nothing new. But with the absence of even addressing the real problems, the manufacturing of consent has reached a new extreme.

Plans offered to convert Astrodome into hotel and entertainment complex…New Jersey okays SBC's acquisition of AT&T…Monster North America says online job recruitment remains level in Houston…
Developers have a plan to turn the 40-year-old Astrodome into a hotel and entertainment complex. The Astrodome Redeveloping Corporation's proposal for Harris County officials includes 1,200 hotel rooms surrounding a nine-acre atrium with restaurants, shops and attractions. The Harris County Sports and Convention Board gave its preliminary approval. Mike Surface, chairman of Harris County Sports and Convention Corporation, says that his group is looking forward to studying it further. Developers continue to work out problems with parking, but the Convention Board plans to vote on the proposal at its meeting next month.
New Jersey regulators have okayed the acquisition of AT&T by San Antonio-based SBC Communications. The approval came after regulators secured a pledge from SBC that it would keep a number of AT&T facilities in New Jersey. The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities also says a comprehensive analysis determined there would be a positive impact on competition, customer rates and service reliability. SBC agreed to keep AT&T's network operations center and other facilities in New Jersey. Many of the AT&T facilities are at or near its headquarters in Bedminster.
Online job recruitment remains level in Houston, according to career and recruitment resource Monster Worldwide. The monthly index benchmarks employment trends by occupation and measures online job recruitment activity and related employment opportunities. Monster North America President Steve Pogorzelski says Houston is one of five markets with unchanged job levels.
Monster's regional indexes are relatively new.
Pogorzelski says job-posting statistics can paint a picture about trends.
The Monster Employment Index measures online job postings in the 28 largest markets, based on a real-time review of millions of employer job opportunities culled from more than 1,500 Web sites.
The Job Board Group has rolled out a local online job board, according to the Houston Business Journal. HoustonJobBoard.com give users access to job posting assistance and free resume posting, acting as a resource center with tips on resume writing. The site offers a database of salary ranges for particular positions.
A Brazoria County jury is deciding if Merck put profits before patients. The jurors have spent more than a month hearing testimony about Vioxx. A widow is suing the New Jersey pharmaceutical company, saying it denied the painkiller had risks and deceived the public about the dangers for the past decade. Her late husband used Vioxx. The woman's lawyer told jurors before closing that Merck "ought to tell us the good, the bad and the ugly." A company lawyer, however, asked if it would "make sense" for Merck to knowingly produce deadly drugs. The plaintiff's lawyer is asking for tens of millions in dollars in damages. It's the first of thousands of lawsuits over the painkiller to go to trial.
State Parks and Wildlife are watching for any ill effects from a sulfuric acid spill in a Houston-area bayou after a barge ran aground this week. The Coast Guard says about 126,000 gallons of acid have been taken off a sinking barge that ran aground in Chocolate Bayou, just south of Houston. No injuries were reported. The cause of the accident is being sought. The barge was moved about one-quarter mile to open up the bayou and make it easier to remove the acid. The barge was carrying 425,000 gallons of acid when it grounded on the bayou banks Monday evening. The extent of the spill and its effect on the environment are still being determined. The direction and density of the acid plume is being tracked through the use of water samples.
The Houston City Council awarded a duty-free concessionaire contract for George Bush Intercontinental Airport to The Nuance Group Houston, despite a pending lawsuit filed by the previous operator, Branch/McGowen Ventures. The lawsuit, filed in Harris County District Court, accuses the city and the Houston Airport System of fraud and breach of contract. In January, an airport selection committee rejected the bid by Branch/McGowen in favor of a deal with Nuance. Branch/McGowen is a partnership that includes ex-Houston City Councilman Ernest McGowen, Sr.
Houston-based Pogo Producing has closed the $820 million sale of its Thailand assets to PTTEP Offshore Investment Co. Ltd. and Mitsui Oil Exploration Co. Ltd., with proceeds earmarked toward Pogo's pending acquisition of Northrock Resources Ltd. Northrock is a Canadian subsidiary of Unocal.
McDermott International has been awarded work by Saudi Aramco to provide fabrication and installation services for oil field developments in Saudi Arabia. The work includes five wellhead jackets, five drill decks and three scrappers, as well as offshore installation of 13 miles of subsea pipelines and associated equipment.
Houston-based Smith International is acquiring Tubular Technology of Lafayette, Louisiana, according to the Houston Business Journal. Tubular provides products and technical services used in the installation of corrosion-resistant alloy tubular products, as well as products and services used during the completion-phase of oil and gas well operations. Tubular will be integrated into its services unit.
Stewart Title has formed a partnership with the National Association of Real Estate Brokers to promote minority home ownership. Stewart and NAREB will utilize education, counseling and programs designed to simplify the homebuying process. According to the U. S. Census Bureau, home ownership rates for African-American and Latino households are 25 percent less than the rates for non-minority households.
One of the world's busiest airports has received a $4 million federal grant to build perimeter taxiways. Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport plans to use the money to increase runway safety. The taxiways around the airport will allow planes to avoiding having to stop and wait for a chance to cross an active runway. The airport describes the system as "ribbons of concrete" that will circle DFW's airfield and seven runways. The taxiways will enable aircraft to go around active runways, rather than having to cross them. The project is expected to be completed by 2008. DFW is the world's third busiest airport, offering nearly 2,000 flights each day.
YMCA headquarters is staying in Chicago–and not moving to Texas. The not-for-profit organization had been considering a relocation after making its home in Chicago for 24 years. But YMCA officials today said they've decided to stay in Chicago, choosing the windy city over runner-up Dallas. The organization also announced plans to build a new building in Chicago's South Loop to house offices, exhibits and a state-of-the-art training center for YMCA staff around the country. The city has offered $9.5 million to help build the center as part of an incentive package to keep the "Y" in Chicago.
A magistrate in Sherman has approved a Texas credit union's plan to convert to a mutual savings bank. That's despite a regulator's objection to the way a mailing to credit union members was folded. The ruling now goes next to a federal judge in Sherman. Members of Plano-based Community Credit Union voted in June to convert to a mutual savings bank, which would let the institution sell shares to members and outside investors. But the National Credit Union Administration refused to certify the vote. It said an election mailing to credit union members was folded so that voters saw management's pro-conversion argument first. The credit union sued the agency. The magistrate ruled that the regulator never told the credit union how to fold the mailing.

- Tina Ball might be known today as the wife of LaVar Ball and mother of Lonzo Ball, but she is much more than just that. A proficient basketball player, Tina was fond of the sport right from an early age. She mastered it quickly and by the time she was in high school, she became a four-year varsity basketball letter winner. One of the top basketball prospects at that time, she averaged 15.8 points and 18.2 rebounds. To further her career as a basketball player, she became a part of the 'Cal State Los Angeles Golden Eagles Womens' team while in college.
- She finished her career ranking eighth in points at 935, fifth in field goal attempts at 1165, fifth in blocks at 60, eighth in field goals made 541, fourth in rebounds at 627, eighth in free throws made at 120, and seventh in free throws attempted at 208. LaVar Ball first saw Tina when she was playing basketball at college. At six feet, her upright frame, dribbling skills and basketball technique immediately intrigued him. After a few years of dating, the two eventually married and Tina raised her three sons, Lonzo, LiAngelo and LeMelo.
- Though her sons gained their professional training from LaVar Ball, Tina remained the driving force behind their hard work and determination. Tina did not continue playing basketball professionally, but she continues to contribute to the sport by serving as the athletic director at Vernon Middle School in Montclair, California. Her job involves raising potential NBA stars and teaching PE to middle-schoolers.
- In August 2017, Tina Ball and her family premiered in their Facebook show, 'Ball In The Family'. The reality show documents the life of the Ball family, both personally and professionally. The first episode of the show was viewed by around 26 million people. Tina is also actively involved in her family business, of which she was also one of the founders. 'The Big Baller Brand' (3B) includes clothing lines, for both men and women, under the line, Lady 3B and Girl 3B. They also have a 3B shoes line. Like a true backbone, Tina steadily supports her family in all their endeavours. She used to be present at all the matches that her sons played before health complications stopped her from attending them. In February 2017, Tina suffered from a major stroke that left her with aphasia or speech impairment. At that time, Tina couldn't talk much, though she understood everything. Her condition, however, has improved significantly and she is on her feet, and is able to speak fluently.
Recommended Lists:
- Tina Ball was born as Christina Catherine Slatinsky on December 11, 1967, in Miami, Florida to Robert and Catherine Slatinsky. Right from an early age, Tina took an interest in athletics and sports. As a promising basketball player, she dominated the court seamlessly both in Alta Loma high school and at California State University. In college, Tina represented her institution at the 'Cal State Los Angeles Golden Eagles Womens' team.
- Incidentally, Tina found her soulmate at the basketball court as well. According to LaVar, he first saw Tina on the basketball court after he was transferred from West Los Angeles College to Cal State Los Angeles. Almost as if struck by cupid, he could not take his eyes off her. Without wasting a moment, he walked up to her and said, 'I don't know what we're going to do, but we're gonna be doing something!' Taken aback by LaVar's cockiness, Tina was left perplexed.
- Interestingly, right at their first meeting, LaVar told her that they would get married one day and have boys, thus starting a legacy of a basketball family. LaVar's 'masterplan' worked, and they indeed have a basketball family. LaVar and Tina got married and have been blessed with three sons, Lonzo, LiAngelo, and LaMelo, all of whom are basketball players. While Lonzo is currently a point guard for the 'Los Angeles Lakers,' LiAngelo is a shooting guard for the 'UCLA Bruins' men's basketball team. Her youngest son LaMelo is a junior point guard at Chino Hills High School. Through Lonzo, she has one granddaughter, Zoey, who is named after her.

Guinevere could not understand how she let her heart be stolen by a human. She was a vampiress, born in the dark and hating the light. Yet love pulsed through the lady of shadow's veins all the same. The young king, the exemplar of justice, the great Arthur. He who should have been her most loathed enemy had instead pulled at her heartstrings from first sight. Fully succumbing to her desires, she departed for his world.
Rereleased on October 2, 2014 as a part of Chains of Vengeance 9 Card Pack. "Reborn" powered-up animated version of Dark Queen Guinevere with different skill and lore.
Name originEdit
Guinevere was the legendary Queen consort of King Arthur in the Arthurian Legend. In tales and folklore, she was said to have had a love affair with Arthur's chief knight Sir Lancelot. Guinevere and Lancelot's betrayal of Arthur was often considered as having led to the downfall of the kingdom. The Welsh form Gwenhwyfar, which seems to be cognate with the Irish name Findabair, can be translated as "The White Enchantress" or "The White Fay/Ghost", from Proto-Celtic Uindo "white, fair, holy" and seibara "magical being".

We are doing science for policy
The Joint Research Centre (JRC) is the European Commission's science and knowledge service which employs scientists to carry out research in order to provide independent scientific advice and support to EU policy.
There is growing recognition that behavioural insights (BIs) – by shedding light on how people actually make choices – help deliver more effective policies and complement traditional forms of intervention. BIAP 2016 covers 32 European Countries (EU + EFTA) and presents a wealth of policy interventions either implicitly or explicitly informed by BIs. It also reviews institutional developments and puts forward a comparative framework (PRECIS) describing national teams applying BIs to policy-making.
BIAP 2016 comes at an important point in time. The European Commission (EC) has been a front-runner in bringing BIs into legislation and regulatory intervention. In the coming years, BIs will certainly have a broader role in supporting the EC's Better Regulation Agenda.
Commissioner Navracsics will open the event and Prof. Madrian (Harvard Kennedy School) will deliver a speech about the added value of linking academic research to policy-making.
The event will gather mainly policy-makers from European Institutions and from around 26 national governments in Europe. A few NGOs, businesses, think tanks, researchers and journalists will also attend. The purpose is to share knowledge on how BIs are being applied to diverse policy fields, promote links among the different actors, and inspire new applications of BIs to policy.
Download the Behavioural Insights Applied to Policy: European Report 2016
Besides the report, a set of country-specific fact sheets are available. For each of the 31 European countries analysed, examples of policy initiatives informed by behavioural insights are given, along with the methodologies used, the key institutions involved in the application of behavioural insights, and the networks and collaborations taking place in this field.

LEAD, S.D. (KEVN) - Nearly 2,400 burglaries happened in South Dakota last year.
Putting a key into a lock in Lead. (KEVN)
How can you keep your home here secure while you're long gone on vacation?
We normally lock our doors and shut our windows before leaving for vacation.
But security analysts say there are more steps we can take to keep our homes safe.
"If you can shut your computers down. Maybe even just turn off your wi-fi since nobody will be using it. Those would be good security measures," Rick Wisser says, a security analyst from Black Hills Information Security.
According to the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting Program, the average loss per burglary in 2017 was nearly $2,500.
In order to not tip off potential burglars, Wisser suggests being careful about when and what you post on social media.
"If you're going on vacation, and you're in the Bahamas and taking pictures and posting them as soon as you get them up, the big thing is that people know you're out of town. If they know where your address is or where you live, they know your house is unoccupied or probably a good chance your house is unoccupied," Wisser says.
In addition to keeping your home safe from thieves, you can also guard it from the elements.
"The big one is turn off the water. I've heard so many horror stories about you know, you're gone for a week. Come back. You've got a flood in your basement. I like to have a, if I'm gone, even if I'm gone a week, I have my neighbors whom I trust, and they do the same thing for me, check on the house," Wisser says.

Hyatt Jamaica Resorts to be Featured on NBC Golf Channel Reality Show
Hotel & Resort James Shillinglaw June 09, 2015

Hyatt Zilara and Hyatt Ziva, the two newly minted all-inclusive resort co-brands that are less than a year old, will get much greater visibility starting Monday, June 15, when two of the Hyatt resorts in Montego Bay, Jamaica will be featured in a new NBC Golf Channel show called "Altered Course Montego Bay."
The first episode was shown before a select audience on June 8 at NBC's famed Studio 8H at 30 Rockefeller Center, home to "Saturday Night Live."
Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall and Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall, the first dual-branded all-inclusive resort in Jamaica, opened earlier this year after more than $85 million in renovations. The twin resorts, located on the site of the former Ritz-Carlton Rose Hall, are adjacent to the White Witch and Cinnamon Hill golf courses. The Hyatt Zilara brand is for couples, while Hyatt Ziva is for families.
"Altered Course," an hour-long reality competition show, will premiere at 9 p.m. ET on June 15 featuring eight teams of two golfers navigating a re-imagined course of golf holes in excess of 700 yards while traversing natural obstacles. They also must complete each hole in a certain amount of time (five minutes) or face a penalty.
One "Altered Course" hole can incorporate three or more traditional golf holes, with teams competing in a variety of contests, including alternative-shot, scramble and speed golf. Teams are scored on a combination of strokes and the time it takes them to complete a hole.
Each week, one of the teams will be eliminated, leaving one team as the champion winning a grand prize of more than $100,000 in cash and gifts. That prize includes $15,000 in cash from Skechers GO GOLF and Skechers footwear for life; $10,000 in cash from MusclePharm and a trip to MusclePharm's Sports Science Institute; a five-day, four-night stay at Hyatt Zilara or Hyatt Ziva all-inclusive resort; free golf for life from GolfNow; and $25,000 in cash.
"Altered Course" features Kristin Kenney, NBC Sports pit reporter for the Red Bull Global Rally Cross series. It includes eight teams: Camo Greens, two men who are sergeants in the U.S. Army; Canadian Ninjas, two woman who are teammates at the University of British Columbia; Frenemies, two woman who are professional golfers on the Symetra Tour; Georgia Boys, two men who are best friends and were college teammates while at Florida A&M University; Icelandic Duo, two professional golfers from Reykjavik, Iceland; Serbian Sisters, two sisters who are golfers and fitness buffs; Texas Hustlers, two mean who are golfing friends but come from different backgrounds; and The Twins, two men who are twins and recent graduates of the professional golf management program at North Carolina State University.
Nearly 80 of the cast and crew of "Altered Course" spent two weeks filming at the new Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall and Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall as they competed on nearby White Witch and Cinnamon Hill golf courses. Throughout the weekly eight-episode program, the two resorts and their facilities are featured extensively. The new Hyatt all-inclusive brands also are major sponsors of the show.
Bruce Wardinski, CEO of Playa Hotels & Resorts, which has developed Hyatt's two all-inclusive brands, said the new golf program was the result of a great partnership with the NBC Golf Channel, as well as other supporters like the Jamaica Tourist Board; Island Routes, the destination excursion operator; and the two golf courses.
"Altered States" is expected to generate more than 55 million consumer impressions for Hyatt Zilara and Hyatt Ziva on the Golf Channel and over 100 million on various sports websites. The hashtag #alteredcourse has already generated six million Twitter impressions.
Kevin Froemming, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for Playa Hotels & Resorts, also used the event to provide an update on future openings of Hyatt all-inclusive resorts. He said Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos is scheduled to have a grand reopening on Aug. 15, with a complete refurbishment of the lobby, a room redesign, new restaurants, floating fire pits, a Baja pool bar and a new spa.
Froemming also said the Hyatt Ziva Cancun, formerly the Dreams Cancun, will have a grand opening on Nov.15, 2015. Set on the point at the end of Cancun's hotel district, the resort features dramatic views, all-new ocean facing rooms, a Churrascaria restaurant, infinity edge pools, the first-ever microbrewery in Cancun, and a dolphin encounter.
In addition, Froemming unveiled a new Jamaica super summer sale at Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall and Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall, which began this month, featuring savings of up to 55 percent on published rates, plus additional amenities and services creating more than $1,200 in added value for guests. At Hyatt Zilara, those added amenities include a free round of golf per guest and car rental at White Witch or Cinnamon Hill golf courses, a free catamaran sail for two guests per guest suite, and free airport transfers from Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay, among other extras.
At Hyatt Ziva, the offer includes the same amenities and savings above, plus free stays for up to two kids 12 and under when sharing a suite, and free Kidz Club membership and activities for kids 4-12 years old. Details of the Jamaica Super Summer Sale, which runs through June 30 and is valid for bookings completed by Dec. 1, 2015, are available by clicking on Hyatt All-Inclusive.

Borgata has just successfully concluded its flagship series, the Borgata Poker Open with 1075 entries joining in the $3500 WPT Championship Event to amass a prize pool of just over $3.5 million but all is not over for the New Jersey players as far as the tournament scene is concerned.
The operator is scheduled to host a series of poker tournaments for both online players (BorgataPoker.com) and live players (Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa) this month.
First up, is the return of Borgata's iconic online tournament series—the Garden State Super Series (GSSS) from October 14 to October 21. This time, over $450,000 is guaranteed across 24 events. Meanwhile, Borgata will also be running a live tournament series—the October Monster Stacks from October 15 to October 19. The $110,000 guarantee is spread across five days with five tournaments.
October Monster Stacks is followed by a $350 buy-in $100,000 guaranteed Saturday Series on October 20. It doesn't stop as another short series is scheduled to run from October 26 to October 29. This will be the return of Borgata's fifth Annual Bar Poker Open. Over $150,000 is guaranteed across ten affordable events as well as a $100,000 guaranteed Championship Invitational event from October 27 to October 29.
Garden State Super Series (October 14-21)
The fall edition of GSSS returns to BorgataPoker.com and partypoker NJ for its ninth edition. A total of 24 events are scheduled to take place from October running for eight days. Compared with the spring edition that took place earlier this year, the operator this time has increased the series overall guarantee from $365,000 to $450,000 (an increase of 23%) and also the number of tournaments from 17 to 24. Buy-ins start at $35 and go up to $1060 for the High Roller event.
A Main Event boasting a $100,000 guarantee takes place on the final day of the series. It will carry a buy-in of $320 and there will be plenty of opportunities for players to win a seat to the Main Event and other events. Besides, there will be a series leaderboard where players who finish in the top 300 positions will receive an entry into the GSSS Leaderboard Invitational tournament on October 28. The invitational tournament will award prizes with over $5300 going to the top ten place finishers.
October Monster Stacks (October 15-19)
On the live tables, Borgata will be hosting an October Monster Stacks in mid-October. Five events each carrying a five-figure guarantee will run from October 15-19. Each of the events will be a re-entry and one-day event with players receiving starting stacks of tournament chips ranging from 25,000 to 35,000. Overall, the series will pay out at least $110,000.
Usually, Monster Stacks is run during the month of March, however, this year, for the first time east coast players will be able to enjoy tournaments with monster stacks in October. The March edition ran for two weeks and paid out $315,800 across nine tournaments.
$100,000 Guaranteed Saturday Series (October 20)
Players wanting to play a single day event with a six-figure prize pool can try out the $100,000 Guaranteed Saturday Series on October 20. The tournament returns for its third edition this year and will once again carry a $350+$50 buy-in. It promises ten-times the guarantee of any standard "Big Stack" tournament on the regular schedule at Borgata. The tournament is once again adopting the big blind ante format. Players can re-enter multiple times through level 10.
The Saturday Series has always attracted a large enough field to easily surpass its six-figure guarantee. In May, the tournament drew 393 entries to generate a prize pool of $137,500 and easily covered its original guarantee by 37.5%. Prior to that, during the Borgata Spring Poker Open, 474 entries helped the total exceed $165,900 with eight players opting to chop it up. Each of them walked away with nearly $15,000.
Bar Poker Open (October 26-29)
The 2018 Bar Poker Open will take place at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa from October 26 for a four days of action packed with ten tournaments and a $100,000 guaranteed Championship Invitational open to the players who qualified from local bars across North America. It will be live-streamed with "cards up" on October 29.
The Bar Poker Open is a series of affordable buy-in tournaments built specifically for the Bar Poker Community at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa. The series will feature over $150,000 in guaranteed payouts with buy-ins ranging from $120 to $300.
