2018 was a bit of a dud for investors.
Deutsche Bank produced a report showing that 90% of the asset classes fell in 2018.
US and Aussie stocks certainly finished down.
Sound glum?
Not for you!
You're lucky! You have a very compelling opportunity to make money this year.
Markets are on sale.
You can now step in and buy up stocks trading at much cheaper valuations…and position for a bounce back.
There's an old adage in the stock market: The lower price you pay, the bigger your potential return.
Yep — it might even feel 'wrong' to be buying, what with all the scary headlines around the world at the moment.
But nobody said investing was a breeze. You're supposed to buy fear —and sell greed.
And if you're in a buying mood, 2019 could be a doozy to the upside if the trends I'm tracking play out.
In the weekend edition of 2019 I'm going to show you three specific opportunities.
Starting with…
#1: Aussie Market — Back Over 6,000
Did you know the ASX/200 hit a 10 year high in 2018?
Yep — the first half of the year in the market was right on track.
Then things fell apart after August.
The Royal Commission into the banking sector, mostly.
Now, I don't want to completely dismiss other issues impacting the market, like the Chinese-US trade war.
However, the ugly revelations around the major banks put extreme selling pressure on their share prices.
That's bad news for the Aussie index — the big four banks make up nearly a quarter of the index.
If you throw in the slowing property market as well, it's no wonder bank shares took a big hit.
My view is that these issues are now mostly priced in.
I expect the big four banks to bounce — or at least hold — around the levels they are now.
So, where's the upside for the market going to come from?
The mining sector!
Okay…let me explain…
The Aussie dollar is now dangerously close to going under 70 U.S. cents. It was more than 80 cents in late 2017.
We can debate the relative merits of this all-day long. But there's one indisputable fact…
It makes companies earning US dollars more attractive to Aussie investors.
And all commodities trade in US dollars.
It's a global market.
The effect I'm talking about is really easy to see in gold shares.
The US dollar gold price is currently around US$1,280.
That's not really that exciting if you're American.
But the falling Aussie dollar turbocharges the price for us here. At the time of writing, an ounce of gold currently goes for around AU$1,830!
Aussie gold miners, with a reasonable cost base, can make very good margins at this price point.
It's a great example of how currency moves can be really powerful for mining companies.
Australia is shipping out a lot of coal, iron ore and LNG at the moment.
In fact, 2018-2019 could see record export income from resources and energy.
If this happens it will likely show up in strong earnings for the relevant producers on the ASX…and help lift the Aussie market back up over 6000 points.
We could even go into
all-time new highs this year
Here's why…
One thing that has suppressed the Australian stock market this decade is that the big mining stocks and big four banks have not really moved together.
Bank stocks were strong from around 2012-2015. Mining stocks were weak.
Then the miners began to move up over 2016-2018 while bank shares retreated.
I think 2019 is the year both sectors move up together…and deliver a strong market.
The Aussie dollar took a big hit in late 2018 — falling 13% from the August high to the December low point.
I say buy the dip.
You could consider an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). These hold a basket of stocks, like a mutual fund, but you can buy and sell as simply as a normal share.
One to consider is the BetaShares Australia 200 ETF [ASX:A200].
This holds the top 200 companies on the ASX. It's a very straightforward and low-cost way to position yourself for a rising Australian stock market.
Check out the specs here.
Please note this is not a recommendation. But it's certainly a starting point for your own further research, or an idea to discuss with your financial adviser.
There are many other similar ETFs to the BetaShares one as well.
But look around. You want to minimise fees as much as possible.
The main point of my report today is that the Aussie stock market has much more upside potential than most people think.
That brings me to my second profit opportunity…
#2: The US Market Bounce-Back
US stocks delivered their first down year in a decade last year.
I expect the Dow to bounce back in a big way in 2019 — which could really help lift the Aussie market.
Donald Trump's aggressive trade initiative against China upset the apple cart in 2018. Investors hate uncertainty, and Trump gave them plenty of it.
Volatility returned in 2018, too, which was notably absent in 2017. That makes for wild swings and conflicting signals for all of us to work out what's happening.
However, one thing stands out amongst all of this: US stocks are now historically cheap.
Currently, the US market is trading around 15 times forward earnings.
The average price-to-earnings (P/E) of the US is about 20.
So, there's plenty of room for the market to go up and still not be considered 'expensive'.
Some US sectors are sitting under this modest figure. These are enticing arguably the greatest investor of all-time, Warren Buffett.
Regulatory filings revealed that Buffett loaded up on US bank shares in the third quarter of 2018.
Buffett has sixty years of experience in the investment business. His record of longevity and wealth creation is unparalleled.
And he was BUYING in 2018's difficult market.
I suggest following his lead is a wise path = provided you have a reasonable holding period in mind.
Volatility can make for a wild ride, so do keep this in mind.
Want another reason to be bullish on the market in 2019?
Just look at the recent 'sell-off'…
In my view, this looks like a technical sell off, not an economic one.
This is a really important distinction.
What I'm saying is I don't see a raft of downgrades suggesting a weakening outlook for earnings.
It looks more like uncertainly and volatility hitting the market.
These kinds of clouds can pass.
Let me show you what I mean…
In Wednesday's Profit Watch I showed you a chart from my colleagues at Stanberry Research.
Here it is again. It shows all the drawdowns in US stocks since 1965. It also puts the recent one into historical context:
Source: Income Intelligence, Stansberry Research
You can see the recent sell-off is pretty sharp.
Now here's where a bit of economics history can come in handy (though most people are oblivious to this).
The bigger falls that you can see — for example, in 1973-74, 1979, 2003 and 2008 — were much more difficult periods than we're going through right now.
But this is why I have 1998 on my mind…
You see, US stocks took a pummelling in the middle of 1998 as well.
They fell just under 20% from July to August.
At that stage, stocks had been in a bull market for years, like today.
In the aftermath of such a drop, it would have been easy to think that was the end of the road for stocks.
Let's not forget, in 1998, the Asian Financial Crisis was still playing out and Russia defaulted on its debt.
Scary headlines at the time.
But the market didn't think so. The Dow Jones would rise another 50% before topping out in 2000.
Easy to see in hindsight. But there was nothing obvious about such an outcome at the time.
I think there's a higher likelihood of something similar playing out from here today than further big falls across the markets, like 2008.
It's likely to be volatile, no doubt. But in my view the risk is worth it if you can hang on. The final years of a bull market often have the biggest gains.
So where should you look?
You could consider buying some US shares.
Or perhaps pick up another ETF that covers the US market.
One to consider is the Vanguard US Total Market Shares Index [ASX:VTS].
You can find more information about that here.
Again, this is not a recommendation. It's an idea for you to do some homework on and discuss with your financial planner. Like the previous ETF suggestion, VTS has low fees, which is what you want to look for.
A lot of wealth is created in the United States. This is one idea to tap into it.
And that brings me to a kind of 'wildcard' market for you to consider this year…
#3: 'Black Gold' Shares: Cheap and
Hated — But for How Long?
If you're up for a speculative punt in the market,then I suggest you keep a close eye on oil stocks in 2019.
This is something I've repeatedly covered in my investment letter Small Cap Alpha.
Oil is a volatile beast, no doubt.
At one point in 2018, Brent crude went over US$80 a barrel.
By the end of the year, it was under US$55!
But some of the underlying trends I've been tracking in this market suggest another bull-run in oil is highly probable this year, or 2020 at the latest.
One reason is that, since 2014, there's been little investment in replacing ageing fields across the globe.
But every year we keep consuming oil at high rates.
There's also a new environmental rule due to come into effect in January 2020.
Global ships will be required to burn 'clean fuel' — not the highly polluting stuff they use now.
It might sound obscure — actually, it is obscure — but this is going to stress the global refining industries' available supply of diesel.
This has the potential to cause a scramble for a certain type of oil.
You might be surprised to know that oil from Saudi Arabia is often very different to oil from, say, the US.
That aside, oil prices could come under pressure if economic growth strengthens, as I expect.
And yet investors have little interest in oil shares. That means they trade pretty cheaply, relative to previous periods in history.
And yet many of them have lowered their cost bases in recent years.
That means if oil does run-up, as I expect, the margins could be huge.
That's a recipe for oil drillers' share prices to potentially race up.
You could also consider companies that have active drilling programs. If they hit oil, you can get a big lift from that too.
Of course, I may be wrong. Oil could fall lower, dragging associated shares down with it.
Like I say: This is not a sector to go heavily into without strict risk management.
One speculative stock to keep any eye on is Byron Energy Limited [ASX:BYE]. It's an oil and gas producer operating in the Gulf of Mexico. It's also drilling for more oil over 2019.
If it hits what it's looking for, we could potentially see a big spike in the share price.
As I write, Byron has also not 'hedged' its current production. That means it takes the current selling price of oil as it goes. If oil goes up, it makes more money.
Of course, if oil goes down, it makes less. The share price will move accordingly.
(To clarify, some oil companies sell their future production at a fixed price in the future. This locks in their revenue regardless of what the 'spot' price does. It's a defensive move, generally, limiting the potential gain from the stock.)
Again, please don't treat this as a formal buy recommendation here. I can't keep you updated or give you full risk assessment (if you want that, take your obligation trial-run of Small Cap Alpha).
As with the other suggestions, it's designed to springboard your own further investigations.
There are a number of compelling oil stocks on the ASX at the moment, each with their own attributes, and each worthy of your further research.
Here's a good list of the oil-related stocks on the ASX. It's a mix of larger and smaller companies:
- BHP Group Limited [ASX:BHP]
- Otto Energy Limited [ASX:OEL]
- Freedom Oil and Gas Limited [ASX:FDM]
- Karoon Gas Australia Limited [ASX:KAR]
- Santos Limited [ASX:STO]
- Sino Gas & Energy Holdings Limited [ASX:SEH]
- Oil Search Limited [ASX:OSH]
- Woodside Petroleum Limited [ASX:WPL]
It's an exciting sector, and worth you looking into.
So, there you have it.
Three of my top investment ideas for 2019.
Let's book mark this edition and see how we fare come the end of the year.
But between now and then, why not give my dedicated small cap research a go?
If you like what you've read here, I'm sure you'll get a lot out of it. And hey, if you don't think so after coming onboard, you can get your subscription money back in full within 30 days.

Have a great weekend!
All the best,

NY Post
October 4, 2018
Brett Kavanaugh is no longer a mere Supreme Court nominee. His name is now a veritable conservative cause — one that has united the right for the first time since the 2016 primary sent Republicans quarreling over Trump and Never Trump.
Whatever the outcome of the immediate contest, it's increasingly clear that Democrats and the media establishment made an enormous miscalculation by waging total war against Kavanaugh and his family.
Liberals set out to cast the federal judge — amiable, well-credentialed, mildly conservative — as a demon. In the process, they have reminded GOP voters and all but the most stubborn Never Trump intellectuals that there are worse things than Donald Trump's outbursts and the ineptitude of congressional Republicans.
Whatever disputes we have on our own side, the thinking on the right now goes, we have to set them aside and stop a politics of personal destruction, fueled by a moral panic and an uncritical mainstream media that sees itself as an adjunct of the anti-Trump resistance.

Pleasant smell shampoo, hair fallout decreased after use!
Using this shampoo is like trying to wash your hair with conditioner. There is no lather and I found I was using more than I normally use with other shampoo as it didn't feel like it was covering my hair. My scalp has become itchy since using. A disappointing purchase and won't buy again.
Creamy and gorgeous smelling, I'm hooked on this now. I have very fine flyaway hair and this shampoo has greatly improved it.
This leaves my hair looking greasy so I have stopped using it. I then gave it to my daughter and the same has happened to her hair. I have used other L'Occitane shampoos and never had a problem before.

200 IDPs register for UTME, WAEC, NECO in Edo
No fewer than 200 students at the Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camp in Edo, have registered for the 2017 basic public examinations, including the University Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
The Camp Coordinator, Mr Solomon Folorunsho, made this known on Tuesday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Ohogua, Ovia North-East Local Government Area of Edo.
Folorunso identified the other examinations as those conducted by the National Examination Council (NECO) and West Africa Examinations Council (WAEC).
According to him, 50 IDPs are currently writing the ongoing UTME, while 75 others written the just concluded Senior Secondary Certificate Examination (SSCE) and 75 also registered for NECO.
He said the International Christian Centre (ICC), where he is the pastor, had spent over N3 million to register the students for the examinations.
"You may be wondering why we have less number for the UTME. We had wanted to register all of them even with the paucity of funds, but some of them wanted to see the results of their WAEC and NECO before they register for the UTME.
"In spite of this, I am happy to say that some of them who wrote the ongoing UTME did extremely well.
"From the scores we have gotten so far, we have had 266 and 246; in fact, many of them scored above 200. They are simply the best set of children I have had since I started this camp in 1992."
Folorunsho expressed gratitude to individuals and organisations that had supported the camp since it started admitting.
He said that the ICC had been responsible for the payment of teachers' salaries.
"We have engaged and have been responsible for the payment of teachers who put these children through in their studies.
"We do this from the church offering and donations from individuals. Recently however, we got some support from the Victims Support Fund.
"We try as much as possible not to disrupt their education even in the face of paucity of fund.
"Take for instance, we have been spending a lot to get those of them that registered for the UTME to their various centres.
"We have most of them scattered in various parts of the state like Okada, Abudu and far distances to write their examination," the cleric said. (NAN)

Autumn Colors
I'm sharing some of the spur-of-the-moment photos I took this past weekend as I was going around Fort Collins, CO doing my normal Saturday errands and activities. To the right is a photo of the beautiful Sunset I captured before it disappeared Sunday evening.
We have been MORE than fortunate here in Northern Colorado this past October and even now into November. We've been darn lucky. We're STILL having this warm temperate weather that has continued since September (when it was normal). Yes, I said September, and it is now November. Wow! And, of course, bright sunshine every day. Occasionally we'll get a
We lived there for 15 years while my husband was a professor of Electrical Engineering. And once I counted three weeks solid of gray skies and NO sunshine. That was a dismal Autumn, believe me.
This is the real color of the sky here. I call it Colorado Blue. Bright blue which doesn't really show up in the photo.
However, the people of West Lafayette, Lafayette, and Northern Indiana were great, and the sunny Fall days we had frequently were wonderful. They also went beautifully with the autumn festivals we had like Lafayette, Indiana's Feast of the Hunter's Moon which was held every end of October. It celebrated a feast between the Native Americans and the French trappers who were the first Europeans to appear in that area of America and were already well established when the English settlers
arrived from the Eastern parts of Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania.
At Lambspun shop with one of Lambspun's customers and regulars. We're both sitting at the knitting table. I'm holding up a sweater and an original handmade mask and my friend is wearing another.
Forgive me----I couldn't help taking a quick detour into our early American history. After all, I am a Historical author as well as a mystery author. :) Meanwhile-----enjoy some of the photos and feel free to share yours as well on Cozychickschat.com.

Love the pictures! Always love pics of skies, especially with some clouds in them. Yesterday when we went out to walk in the morning, there was a rainbow coming out of the clouds. Nice change from the buckets of rain we got on Saturday although I can't complain about rain since we need it so badly. Cordella

I do love autumn colors Maggie, thanks for sharing. Here the past few weeks had a lot of those dreary grey days you described. I counted 6 days without sun.

The skies are still lovely, but we're supposed to get rain tomorrow. Temps are in the 60s. I had all my leaves cleared out of my yard today. Just in time. :)

Aurian---Oh, goodness. That reminds me of some of those dreary Novembers in Indiana. The other days could be sunny and lovely. But then a cold front would blow in from across the Great Lakes.

Hy Juraj, Apreciate your works, very inspired. But I have few questions about Corona.I'm new to Corona as well to 3dsmax (went from a C4D enviroment). Tell me how u make the hdri to be seen from inside. I working on a scene where I use an PG hdri to light the scene, but when I look tru the windows it see burn out, I mean it's ok on the inside lighting, but I want to see the outside too. In vray, I often use a sphere with an hdri material aplied and use an compositing tag to uit to not use his gi and shadows, but that the vray works. tryng to see a tutorial on the web but didn't find anything usefull. And see in your last work that u managed to do what I want. Probably is an dumb question, but better asq before make mistake. and for exterior? it work hdri's to make lighting, or its better cun and sky? Thanks in advice!ClaudiuP.S. hdri aplied in the enviroment in the corona settings. Apologies for my gramatical mistakes language.
In Corona you can also use one HDR map for environment lighting and another (for example slightly darker) for background.
Hi Juraj, I want to ask you if you are going to upload next tutorials from STU. I am newbie in 3ds max and it's very helpful. Thank u :)
as well give Peter Guthrie those long promised tips article. We just live in parallel time existence :- ) So it's not about uploading, but, making it.
Hello JurajAwesome stuff is going in this thread !Wanted to ask you, how often if at all you use Render Elements in post production process (particularly ID based adjustments).Thank you.
He-he Juraj. I was sure that mirroring of textures is not your method. But I'm just jealous.Looks too cool for commercial project.

Jacksonville businessman Charles Judson Williams III, whose ability to weigh issues fit well with a family philanthropy he helped guide, died in his sleep Monday, his family said.
Mr. Williams was 86 and had lived in Jacksonville since 1950.
"Mike didn't talk much," said longtime friend Charles Towers, using a nickname Mr. Williams was given by family. "He was a beautiful listener."
A basketball star at Davidson College in North Carolina whose education was interrupted by World War II when he served as a B-29 bomber gunner in the Pacific, Mr. Williams came to Jacksonville to work with Moore Dry Kiln Co., which an uncle started with a partner. They provided wood-drying equipment worldwide, his brother, Patrick Williams, said.
Mr. Williams was nicknamed Mike by an aunt of the brothers, Patrick Williams said.
"She said you have a Pat in the family, you need a 'Mike,' " he recalled.
The nickname stuck for life.
The brothers worked together at the kiln company for about 25 years, Williams said. Its success allowed the family to begin philanthropic work for what is now the Edna Sproull Williams Foundation, named for their aunt. The foundation has built facilities for and gives to a wide range of educational, medical, religious and charitable organizations, including Jacksonville University where it supports the Williams Scholars program.
Mr. Williams' son David Williams, who also serves with the philanthropy, said his father would review requests for foundation grants. After poring over the applications, he would make a recommendation to the board.
"He was just a very fair person," he said. "He would listen to both sides of a discussion."
Mr. Williams was born in North Wilkesboro, N.C.
He was married to Jacqueline Chalmers of Portland, Ore., for 23 years and had four sons. After a divorce, he was married for 33 years to Estelle Foerster of Jacksonville.
In 1977, the kiln company merged with a larger company. Mr. Williams took over a division and named it Power and Pumps Inc. He served as president and chairman until his death.
He was a member of the Jacksonville Rotary Club, a trustee of the Williams Foundation and served on the boards for the Christian Healing Ministries, Riverside Hospital and Riverside Hospital Foundation.
He was an active member of the First Presbyterian Church and St. Marks Episcopal Church.
In addition to brother Patrick and son David, both of Jacksonville, Mr. Williams is survived by sons Charles J. Williams, Jr., Orlando; John C. Williams and David F. Williams, Jacksonville; Robert W. Williams, Cary, N.C.; David Foerster, Atlanta; and daughter Margaret Bratton, Raleigh, N.C.; and eight grandchildren.
Services and interment of ashes will be at 3:30 p.m. Saturday at St. Mark's Episcopal Church, 4129 Oxford Ave., Jacksonville, with a reception to follow in Leatherbury Hall.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to Christian Healing Ministries, P.O. Box 9520, Jacksonville, FL, 32208; or another charity of your choice.
Arrangements are by Hardage-Giddens Funeral Home, 4115 Hendricks Ave., in Jacksonville.

Being in the pool is really good for you. You can relax and unwind, getting rid of all those worries and stresses of your day, and of course swimming is also excellent exercise for your entire body, but when you opt for a salt chlorinated water pool, you're also getting some extra health benefits. To find out what these benefits are, read on…
Salt water is really good for your skin
Swim in chlorine and it's likely you'll come out with dry skin that may itch. When you swim in salt water, your skin will really benefit. It's a natural exfoliator and moisturiser so you'll leave the pool with silky smooth skin all over your body. It's been proven to be particularly beneficial to anyone who suffers from skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema and even acne.
It has extra stress relieving benefits
Being in the pool is instantly relaxing, but add in the benefits of salt water and you'll feel even more calm and tranquil. Salt water helps our body to relax more quickly and naturally, leaving you feeling at peace after every dip.
It will soothe your joints and muscles
The bromide in the salt water is perfect for alleviating aches and pains. If you suffer from a bad back from sitting at a desk all day, or your legs are sore from being on your feet for a long time, you'll soon notice those pains ease away when you relax in a salt chlorinated water pool. If you're recovering from an injury, spending time in the pool will certainly help you on the way to a speedy recovery.
So much better than the gym
The pool is more relaxing and more fun than the gym that's for sure, and when you exercise in a pool, using the natural resistance of the water, you're getting a great workout that's low impact, so you're not going to damage your joints as you could if you were on a treadmill at a gym. It's also good for concentrating on your breathing while you exercise.
Free from side effects
Some people can experience side effects when they're in a pool, especially if a little too much chlorine has been added. A salt chlorinated water pool has no such side effects so you can rest assured that no one in your pool will suffer from any ill effects of chlorine such as irritated eyes or breathing difficulties.
A salt chlorinated water pool of your own
A salt chlorinated water pool in your own garden is perfect for getting regular exercise and enjoying all the other benefits that chlorinated water has to offer. To find out more about planning your new pool, download our free e-book "The Ultimate Pool Guide".

Ancelotti holds Napoli talks as Chelsea target Sarri nears exit
Carlo Ancelotti has held talks with Napoli as the former Real Madrid and Chelsea boss closes in on a return to management.
Ancelotti travelled to Rome on Tuesday evening to meet with Napoli chairman Aurelio De Laurentiis regarding the upcoming vacancy at the Serie A outfit.
Despite holding positive discussions with current manager Maurizio Sarri last week, De Laurentiis is now consigned to losing the 59-year-old this summer having failed to agree a new deal
Editors' Picks
Sarri is set to depart having led the Partenopei to a second-place finish in Serie A, with their final points tally of 91 the most for a team not to have won the Scudetto.
He currently has an offer from Zenit St Petersburg to replace new Italy national team boss Roberto Mancini but is holding out for Chelsea, where he remains the Blues' primary choice to replace Antonio Conte.
Conte is still expected to depart Stamford Bridge this summer despite winning the FA Cup, and Sarri remains the frontrunner among the Chelsea hierarchy.
Ancelotti is now closing in on signing a two-year deal with Napoli, marking his return to Italian football for the first time since leaving AC Milan in 2009.
A two-time Champions League winner as a coach, Ancelotti's only Serie A success came as manager of Milan in 2003-04 while he also won the Coppa Italia the previous season.
He will take over a Napoli squad that looks set to be torn apart this summer, with Pepe Reina close to joining Milan, Marek Hamsik hinting he could move to China and Jorginho on Pep Guardiola's radar at Manchester City.
Faouzi Ghoulam, Elseid Hysaj and Kalidou Koulibaly have also been linked with Premier League moves while the likes of Dries Mertens, Allan and Lorenzo Insigne are unlikely to be short of suitors.

OKLAHOMA CITY – A local company's sales have skyrocketed in recent months. It's all because of a bill introduced by a Representative from California. The bill would prevent citizens from buying military grade body armor.
Michael Blackmore is the owner of Armor Advantage, a body armor sales and manufacturing company based out of Purcell. When it comes to body armor there's almost nothing Blackmore doesn't know, but a new bill proposed by a Congressman from California has him stumped."
It started, probably good intentions, but I don't know that it's been thought all the way through," Blackmore said.
The Responsible Body Armor Possession Act, proposed by Rep. Mike Honda, CA, would prevent private citizens from buying military grade body armor.
"They state military grade, but they don't state where that line is, and that's a very slippery slope," Blackmore said.
Blackmore says private citizens like security guards and even taxi drivers buy body armor all the time. He says he won't let his kids go to the shooting range unless they wear it, and he says many people where body armor when they go hunting.
Blackmore says for him it's not a financial opposition he has to the bill. In fact, since it was announced Blackmore's body armor sales have skyrocketed 300%. For him, it's about principle.
"I personally believe that politics should be kept out of this and the bottom line is, we are a free country and we have the right to choose," he said.
Rep. Honda released this statement to Fox 25:
"This bill does not prevent the vast majority of body armor purchases. It is just to stop military-grade body armor from getting into the wrong hands. The sale of military equipment, like body armor, to just anyone is far more likely to be used against the public than used to protect the average citizen.
"Mitch McIntire is a body armor sales representative at Special Ops Uniforms in Oklahoma City. He says he can see both sides, but still sees holes in Rep. Honda's logic."
At what point do we sacrifice all of our personal freedoms based on a vague law? There's a lot more specifics required in my estimation," McIntire said.
Rep. Honda says military grade body armor has been used by mass shooters to slow down law enforcement response. He wants to make it more difficult for them to get a hold of it.

My kid loves the TV show Scrubs. One of Or Ami's former interns so loved Scrubs that he proposed to his wife on the same bench in Los Angeles where Turk asked Carla to marry him.
I enjoy Scrubs too. And I love Israel. So how cool is it when to favorite things come together. Yes, Dr. J.D. Dorian, aka (in real life) Zach Braff visits Israel!?!
Haaretz reports that 'Scrubs' star Zach Braff falls in love with Tel Aviv:
Braff says that when you come here, "you just feel this amazing sense of community. We hear so much about Israel and politics with the Palestinians and you feel so separate from it. So I really wanted to see for myself." He says he was "lucky" to be able to come and see things firsthand and to talk to Israelis. "As a Jew I think it's really important to come to this place. There is such a tremendous sense of community, tremendous bond for obvious reasons. I don't know if Israelis have a sense of it because they live here, but I love it."
The Israeli experience made such an impression on him, he says, he is thinking of his next film touching on a story about an American Jew who visits Israel. Braff, who wrote and directed the successful "Garden State," which also starred Natalie Portman, says a story like what he has in mind is something he's never seen in a movie and thinks it will be really interesting.

Yamaha / Grizzly 350 ATV
The essential ATV – pure and simple.
Not everyone needs all the features, sophisticated suspension, or the awesome terrain-busting abilities of the bigger Yamaha Grizzly models. For that reason, Yamaha builds the standard 350 in both 4WD and 2WD versions.
The Yamaha Grizzly 350 4WD offers outstanding levels of grip for tough terrain, and can also be used in 2WD if required. Whilst stripping out the 4WD equipment on the Grizzly 350 2WD results in a useful weight saving that gives the 2WD an even more nimble feel. There's no reduction in the functionality specification, either: you get all the carrying and towing capacity of the Grizzly 350 IRS plus the same ground clearance and the same tight turning circle.
Engine: 348cc air cooled 4 stroke single cylinder with electric start. Comprehensively developed Yamaha engineering, with low running costs
Transmission: Choice of two wheel drive only or 2wd-4wd models. ULTRAMATIC automatic gearbox & reverse. Shaft final drive
Brakes & Suspension: Hydraulic double disc brakes on the front wheels. Sealed drum brake on rear. Double A arm front suspension, Swing arm rear suspension.
Need a willing ATV that will take on just about anything at any time, work or play? Then it's got to be the Yamaha Grizzly 350 IRS with 4WD and 4WD with front differential lock. Powered by reliable and punchy 348cc engine and featuring switchable On-Command 2WD/4WD with full diff-lock mode on the front wheels and Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) - a boost on especially uneven terrain, and a constant comfort benefit in all conditions.

text: jastey Posted January 8 Spellhold Studios BP-BGT-Worldmap Mod This mod replaces the ingame worldmap with a large, new worldmap. It is used especially for the Megamodification (BGT, TDD, SOS, CtB, TS, DSotSC, NTotSC, SoBH, Drizzt Saga...) or partial installations of the Megamodification. The mod is also compatible with BG:EE, BGII:EE, and EET. It also includes a full set of coloured map icons. The mod offers the choice between two different worldmap sizes: large and huge. Either of these two worldmaps can be used for BG1, BG2 and ToB. Alternatively, a smaller, specially prepared worldmap can be used for ToB. The mod also offers optional, alternative travel times and area visibility. Lastly, the mod includes a savegame converter, which allows old saved games to be updated to include the new map(s). (The worldmap data is also stored in the savegame files. If you want to install this worldmap, run the savegame converter and you don't have to start a new game.) Version 10.2.4 fixes wrongly (or not at all) named DSotSC areas on the worldmap and adjusts the area visibility from NTotSC to the ones in the mod. Note: for this version, you also need the updated Language AddOns v9.0.0. The mod is also available from SHS's official GitHub mirror. Download from SHS Download Site. Changelog: - corrected area names for DSotSC areas (areas should be named correctly and should all have names on the worldmap). - corrected area visibility for ntotsc (areas should have the same visibility on worldmap as in original mod). - added changelog.txt file. - renamed folder to "bp-bgt-worldmap". - moved setup-bp-bgt-worldmap.tp2 inside mod folder. - added bp-bgt-worldmap.ini with mod info meta data.

Filed under: Desserts, summer seasonal food | Tags: basil, dessert, raspberry vinegar, strawberry, vegan
As the strawberry season is still going on, there could hardly be any reasons why not to eat them all the time.. this is a simple dessert I made the other day. The vinegar combined with sugar gives the strawberries a taste that is really interesting, not bitter or sour, but just tangy. My friend who was eating it thought it felt odd in the throat, but I simply loved it. Basil tastes good with strawberries, as well as rosemary.
1 litre of strawberries
4 tbsp rasberry vinegar
1/2 dl powdered sugar
The Cream
250 g soy yogurt, drained in a colander overnight
1 dl oat cream (whippable)
2 tbsp sugar
a pinch of bourbon vanilla
basil leaves (could also be lemon basil leaves)
I sliced the strawberries, and made the marinade by whisking together the ingredients. Then I poured it over the strawberries and let it wait for half an hour before serving. The cream I made simply by combining the ingredients with the chopped basil leaves.

Health Care
How to Select the Right Back Doctor?
Choosing the right doctor or to be more specific, a back surgeon is very important. The ultimate motive of the doctor should be the comfort of the patient. There are many questions that need to be asking yourself before choosing the right back doctor in Boynton Beach. One can either ask for online reviews or can go to older patients who have been treated by the doctor before.
How can interacting with older patients be helpful?
This is one of the most important things that need to be done before finalizing a back doctor in Boynton Beach. Their opinions and experience matter a lot. If someone has referred you to a particular doctor try to collect as much information as possible. This will help you to get a general opinion. Some of the questions that need to be asked to the older patients are as follows:
- How much time did the doctor take to evaluate the case and make it understandable to the patient's family and the patient as well?
- How much experienced is the doctor?
- Is the doctor approachable even after the treatment or surgery if undergone?
- Is the assistance of the doctor helpful and friendly enough?
Does referring to many doctors help?
The answer to this question is definitely yes. If you get the varied opinion and suggestions of many doctors instead of only one, this is going to understand the viewpoint of the doctors and thus you can decide accordingly. There are many back doctors in Boynton Beach. One can easily take their suggestions. This will also help you to know which doctor is the best in the town and you can definitely take their medication.
Doctors with a fellowship are considered to be the most experienced ones. They have devoted a lot of time doing research work on the spine and thus they have a lot of knowledge about back injury or pain.
What is the importance of a second opinion?
Having a second opinion is really very important. The case becomes more vital if the patient has to undergo a surgery. Depending upon a single is extremely foolish. The more physicians you contact, the more experience you gain.
Thus, we can clearly understand how important it is to consult doctors before taking decisions on such cases. This makes the procedure a lot easier. One way to get an unbiased opinion from the second doctor is that never show the reports of the previous doctors initially to the new doctor.

|"With this life I give you protection. Use it well to care for your Clan as a mother cares for her kits."
|— Brindleface to Fireheart in The Darkest Hour, page 50
Brindleface is a pale gray[7] tabby she-cat[2] with darker flecks[7] and green eyes.[8]
Brindleface was a ThunderClan warrior under Sunstar's and Bluestar's leaderships in the forest territories. She was born as Brindlekit to Robinwing and Fuzzypelt, along with her sister, Frostfur. Her mother fostered Whitestorm after his mother, Snowfur, died. As an apprentice, Brindlepaw trained under Stormtail until she earned her warrior name, Brindleface. She later gave birth to four kits, including Ashfur and Ferncloud, and also fostered Cloudtail when he was brought to the Clan by Fireheart. When Tigerstar executed his plan to lead a dog pack to attack ThunderClan, he killed Brindleface to give them a taste of cat blood. She ascended to StarClan and gave Firestar one of his nine lives, the life for the love of a mother.
In The Prophecies Begin arc
Into the Wild
- Brindleface is a ThunderClan queen. She participates in the battle when ShadowClan attacks ThunderClan's camp, even though she is close to kitting, and fights bitterly. She is shocked to hear that Blackfoot, the ShadowClan deputy, had stolen kits. Later, Brindleface has four kits, but they go unnamed. When the kits are born, Firepaw asks how she's feeling, and Brindleface replies she's a little bit tired. She appears to be worried about Yellowfang being in the Clan, along with with other queens.
Fire and Ice
- When Fireheart is walking across the clearing, she comes out of the nursery, followed by her kits. After one of her own kits die of sickness, Frostfur brings Cloudkit for Brindleface to nurse. Cloudkit is Fireheart's nephew, brought to the Clan by the tom. Frostfur says she knows Cloudkit will never replace the kits she lost, but the kit would die without her, and Brindleface reluctantly agrees and gives in to her sister. When she is given Cloudkit, she nudges him closer to her with her paw. Fireheart notices her eyes soften, and is relieved. She assures Fireheart that she will keep Cloudkit safe.
- After a Gathering, Brindleface tells Fireheart how Cloudkit has a cold but says that it was just a chill and Yellowfang gave him feverfew. Fireheart then asks Brindleface if she would come to the Clan gathering to hear what Bluestar had to say about the Gathering. Brindleface says she thinks she can come because her kits would be sleeping. In the battle with ShadowClan, she is seen bringing Cloudkit to safety. After the battle, she tells Cloudkit to hush when he asked if Clawface was dead. Later, she panics because Cloudkit and her other kits are gone. When everyone starts looking, she tells Fireheart that Frostfur went to tell Bluestar. When the kits are found, Brindleface takes Cloudkit back to camp.
Forest of Secrets
- Brindleface speaks with Cloudkit about becoming an apprentice when Brightpaw and Thornpaw receive their apprentice names. Her kits and Cloudkit are playing outside of the nursery when Cloudkit strays away and almost gets eaten by a badger. Fortunately, he is saved by Fireheart, Sandstorm, and Brackenpaw.
- Brindleface briefly steps outside of the nursery to sniff the air but then entered the nursery again as if she didn't like the taste of the air. She watches as her adopted kit, Cloudkit, becomes Cloudpaw. Before Cloudkit becomes an apprentice, Brindleface also tells Fireheart that Graystripe is getting in the queens' way because of all the time he spends visiting his kits, and says that they have been dropping hints and that Speckletail even asked Graystripe if he was expecting kits himself. She later fights alongside Speckletail against Jaggedtooth during the battle.
Rising Storm
- Brindleface watches affectionately as her two kits tussle around on the ground. Fireheart thinks of how her kits are almost ready to leave the nursery, and how the queen had taken in Cloudpaw, Fireheart's nephew. Not much later, Brindleface speaks with Whitestorm, telling him that she thinks her kits are ready to begin training. She wants to tell Bluestar personally, but the leader has not visited the nursery in days.
- After speaking with Bluestar, Fireheart goes to the nursery and tells Brindleface that her kits would be apprenticed soon. He then awkwardly asks who she would like as mentors, to which Brindleface replies that Bluestar would know best, unknowing to the fact that Bluestar had assigned Fireheart to pick their mentors. Later that day, Bluestar holds a ceremony for Fernpaw and Ashpaw as they sit next to their mother. That night, Brindleface returns to the warriors' den.
- Brindleface is then seen preparing to lead a group of elders over to the river for water. She gathers them up at the fallen tree. After the fire that nearly destroyed ThunderClan, Brindleface is seen with Whitestorm, flanking Bluestar. She then frets over the fact that their forest had been destroyed and that most of the prey has run away. A few days later, Fireheart assigns her to stay and guard the camp while the Clan is away at the Gathering, in case of any attacks from Tigerclaw.
A Dangerous Path
- She shares tongues with Frostfur by the warriors' den and not too long after, she is seen with Cinderpelt and Speckletail when a Clan meeting is called. Later, she and Speckletail are seen outside Cinderpelt's den. Brindleface is grooming Speckletail and comforting her for her kit, Snowkit, because he was taken by a hawk. She tells Fireheart to get a good night's sleep because he looks tired and he works too hard. Shortly after, Fireheart tells Sandstorm to take Brackenfur and Brindleface out on a patrol.
- When Fireheart wants to go talk to Tallstar of WindClan because Bluestar thinks that WindClan was stealing prey, he sees Brindleface visiting the queens in the nursery. When they confronted WindClan, Brindleface exchanged glances with Dustpelt. She told Fireheart everything would be okay when Sandstorm walked away from Fireheart because she didn't like betraying her leader. Brindleface congratulates Cloudtail when he becomes a warrior.
- She is murdered by Tigerstar to give the dog pack a taste for cat blood. Her body is left slaughtered just outside ThunderClan's camp at the end of the trail of rabbits. She is carried back to camp by Sandstorm and Cloudtail. Her kits, Ashpaw, and Fernpaw are devastated when she dies, as well as her foster son, Cloudtail; Cloudtail even suggests a raid on ShadowClan's camp in revenge for the death of Brindleface. Her kits avenge her death by helping to drive the dogs into the gorge. They succeed, but the leader of the Clan, Bluestar, is killed in the process.
The Darkest Hour
- Brindleface is mentioned multiple times throughout the story by Fireheart. Fireheart remembered her when he was bringing Bluestar's body back to camp and how Tigerstar had murdered her. Fireheart thinks about Brindleface's limp body again when her kits, Ashpaw and Fernpaw, were talking about the dog pack. Later, when Fireheart tells the Clan when they would hold mourning rituals for Bluestar, Cloudtail cries out saying that they should attack ShadowClan because of what they did to Brindleface. Fireheart tells him that it was Tigerstar, not ShadowClan.
- Brindleface is one of the cats who give Fireheart his nine lives. Along with his life, she gives him the gift of protection, so that he can protect his Clan as a queen would protect her kits. Fireheart expects the life to be warm and calm but is surprised when the life is shockingly excruciating, showing the power of something a queen would do to protect her kits. Fireheart also understands that Brindleface loves all of her kits very much, even Cloudtail, who was not hers, but a kittypet.
In the Omen of the Stars arc
The Last Hope
- Brindleface appears in StarClan when Jayfeather visits the Moonpool. She tells Jayfeather it was good to see him and that something terrible has happened in StarClan. She then states that they can no longer see the Clans anymore. Soon after, Jayfeather tells her that he had to cross the ShadowClan border in StarClan and she tells him to be careful as Jayfeather pads away with Spottedleaf. Brindleface appears after Firestar's death. Jayfeather dips his head respectfully to her and recognizes her as the cat who gave Firestar one of his nine lives, the life for protection.
In the Super Editions
Moth Flight's Vision
- Although unnamed, Moth Flight sees her giving Firestar one of his nine lives.
Bluestar's Prophecy
- Brindleface is a kit named Brindlekit, born a half-moon after Whitekit. When Tigerkit and Whitekit take her and her sister, Frostkit, out of the nursery for the first time, they go and explore the medicine cat clearing. When Goosefeather sees them there, he begins to yowl and hiss at the kits, terrifying them. She's also seen in the nursery, playing with her denmates, and it is noted that she and her sister both look up to Tigerkit and Whitekit. It was said that they would do anything for their attention and that she had once convinced Whitekit that there was a fox in the dirtplace. When Whitekit's mother, Snowfur, dies, Brindlekit's mother, Robinwing, helps take care of him.
- Later, Brindlekit becomes an apprentice, known as Brindlepaw. She is seen being trained by Stormtail. She later becomes a warrior, with the name of Brindleface. She later shares tongues with Bluestar, and wondering what was on her mind.
In the Novellas
Spottedleaf's Heart
- Redkit sinks his teeth into Brindlekit's scruff during a game. She shrugs him off and complains that she doesn't want to be a rogue anymore. Fed up with Spottedkit, the other kits go off to play their own game. Then, when Thistleclaw arrives, she and Redkit jump onto his shoulders, knocking him over. Spottedkit orders them to get off the warrior, as they've hurt him. Brindlekit and the others watch anxiously. Brindlekit mews to Featherwhisker that she thought Thistleclaw had died.
- During Spottedpaw's apprentice ceremony, Brindlepaw, Frostpaw, and Whitepaw are mentioned to be shouting her name the loudest. Later, though not mentioned by name, Spottedpaw sees the other apprentices bothering the elders with a game they're playing.
Redtail's Debt
- Redpaw and Willowpaw are cleaning out the old moss from the warriors' den, and Willowpaw comments that at least they're not picking ticks off of the elders like Brindlepaw and Frostpaw. She and her sister pause from grooming the elders when Sparrowpelt's patrol returns to camp. Before the battle with RiverClan, Stormtail is seen giving Brindlepaw last-minute advice. As the sounds of a fight stop from the rival Clan's camp, Brindlepaw wonders if the fight is over, and she then hurries off with her sister and the rest of the warriors. Later, Frostfur meows she wishes she was going to the battle against WindClan, and Brindleface mews that she would teach them to keep their claws off of their prey.
In the Field Guides
Battles of the Clans
- Brindleface is only mentioned briefly when Tigerstar is showing the kittypets around the forest battlegrounds. Vengeance for her untimely killing by the dogs is stated to be the reason her kits, Fernpaw and Ashpaw, run first in the race to the gorge against the dogs. She is mentioned once more in the story Graystripe Speaks: The Battle Against the Foxes. She is stated to have died in the dog attack as Graystripe compares Mousefur's safety to Brindleface's.
The following information is from sources considered non-canon or retconned.
- On the Warriors website family tree, Brindleface's mate is Whitestorm and their kits are Ashfur, Ferncloud, Elderkit, and Tulipkit.[9] Her littermates are also Chestnutkit and Cherrypaw.[10] Brindleface is also mates with Redtail.[11]

Afcon squad finalised
Brave Warriors gaffer Ricardo Mannetti has announced a 23-man squad to represent Namibia at the upcoming Afcon finals in Egypt.
11 June 2019 | Sports
Coach Ricardo Mannetti explained that tactics, conditioning, performance and attitude during the last two weeks were the things he looked at before selecting this final squad.
"Those are pillars of our decision. Also the inclusion of England-based Ryan Nyambe at the back; his versatility is key for the changes at the back," said Mannetti.
He also emphasised that he had selected the best possible team for the competition.
"We feel that this team has the right energy, players and tactics and will represent Namibia to the best of their abilities. These are the right players with the right work ethic and harmony," Mannetti added.
The Brave Warriors played a closed-door friendly on Sunday against Ghana, beating the Black Stars 1-0 at the Jebel Ali Sports Centre of Excellence in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
The only goal of the match was scored by German-based attacking midfielder Manfred Starke.
Some fans on social media like Simon Simon Jr said dropping players like Vries and Lombard is an insult, as they fought tooth and nail during the Afcon qualifiers.
"The boys played their lungs out to make sure the team qualified and they end up being dropped. I'm hurt on their behalf," he said.
Cesc Jali said Katjiukua has an important role in the team. "I hope by omitting him the coach really has a better plan."
Another fan, Elia Shikudule, said Mannetti had tough decisions to make because of the very strong squad.
Lombard took to social media to congratulate the chosen players, saying that greater things lie ahead.
"I walk away with a smile because I'm proud that we qualified for Afcon. It's a pity but life goes on," he said.
The squad is as follows: Ratanda Mbazuvara, Loydt Kazapua, Max Mbaeva, Ryan Nyambe, Larry Horaeb, Denzil Haoseb, Ivan Kamberipa, Charles Hambira, Riaan Hanamub, Ananias Gebhardt, Absalom Iimbondi, Willy Stephanus, Petrus Shitembi, Ronald Ketjijere, Dynamo Fredericks, Marcel Papama, Manfred Starke, Deon Hotto, Itamunua Keimuine, Benson Shilongo, Peter Shalulile, Joslin Kamatuka and Isaskar Gurirab.

NASA global warming satellite crashes after launch
AP Science Writer
LOS ANGELES " A NASA mission to monitor global warming from space ended Tuesday when a satellite plunged into the ocean near Antarctica minutes after launch. An equipment malfunction was apparently to blame, officials said.
The loss of the $280 million mission came a month after Japan launched the world's first spacecraft to track global warming emissions. The failure dealt a blow to NASA, which had hoped to send up its own satellite to measure carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas behind human-caused global warming.
The crash came just after liftoff from the Vandenberg Air Force Base on California's central coast. A Taurus XL rocket carrying the Orbiting Carbon Observatory blasted off as scheduled shortly before 2 a.m.
Three minutes into the flight, the nose cone protecting the satellite failed to come off as designed, NASA officials said. The extra weight from the cover caused the rocket to dive back to Earth, splashing into the ocean near Antarctica, where a group of environment ministers from more than a dozen countries met Monday to get the latest science on global warming.
"Certainly for the science community it's a huge disappointment," said John Brunschwyler, Taurus project manager for Orbital Sciences Corp., which built the rocket and satellite. "It's taken so long to get here."
Support Local Journalism
The 986-pound satellite was supposed to be placed into a polar orbit some 400 miles high. The project was nine years in the making, and the mission was supposed to last two years.
The observatory was NASA's first satellite dedicated to monitoring carbon dioxide on a global scale. Measurements collected by the satellite were expected to improve climate models and help researchers determine where the greenhouse gas originates and how much is being absorbed by forests and oceans.
"Wow! Bad news this morning," said Scott Denning, an atmospheric science professor at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colo., and a member of the team that planned to analyze data from the satellite. "We put years into getting ready for this."
Carbon dioxide is the leading greenhouse gas and its buildup helps trap heat from the sun, causing potentially dangerous warming of the planet. Scientists now depend on 282 land-based stations " and scattered instrumented aircraft flights " to monitor carbon dioxide at low altitudes.
Engineers will look at existing spacecraft parts to see if it makes sense to build another carbon observatory, said Mike Freilich, Earth science division director at NASA headquarters.
A team of experts will investigate the loss of the satellite. It's the first launch failure for the Virginia-based Orbital Sciences since 2001. That year, a NASA ozone monitoring satellite and a cargo of human ashes aboard a Taurus XL fell into the Indian Ocean after veering off course during launch.
Orbital's Brunschwyler said the company has a "nearly perfect" launch record and has not had any previous problems with its clamshell nose cone design.
Tuesday's failure put on hold the summer launch of another NASA satellite Glory, which will measure soot and aerosols in the atmosphere, said launch manager Charles Dovale.
Carbon dioxide emissions rose 3 percent worldwide from 2006 to 2007, according to international science agencies.
Scientists lamented the loss of the global warming satellite.
The satellite would have helped scientists confirm whether there was a drop in worldwide emissions, Alan Robock of Rutgers University wrote in an e-mail.

"Bura na mano, Holi hai!" Every year, people take this granted sentence to tease, harass, abuse, and stalk. Sadly, this year also paints the same picture. It's about time we change it to "Bura Maano Un-Holi Hai". The journey of vile behavior during Holi started early this year in Delhi.
A 1st year student of Lady Sri Ram College in New Delhi was attacked with a water balloon. Thinking it's just fun? Well, the liquid inside the balloon was not water but Semen. Yes, you read it right. She posted the incident on her Instagram. The post went viral quickly and since then her account is set to private to protect her identity.
Here is what she said:
After her first post, she took the social platform again to narrate her experience of racism. She was the target of racial abuse because she is from Northeast India.
Read the post here:
However, this is not a single incident. Soon after this incident, another student Drishti Maan shared her horrific experience:
"My white kurta doesn't invite you to throw balloons on me. A girl walking alone on road doesn't invite you to wish her happy holi by touching her body.
3:58 pm I'm walking on road reading @t******* 's posts and thinking how horrible is that and exactly after that I feel a balloon hitting my back and just after some seconds I feel another on my feet. I literally couldn't move after that and after a min I hear "HAPPY HOLI". I couldn't analyse what just happened, I felt so helpless. All the worst things were going in my mind. "What if they come back?" "what should I do? Should I shout?" It's high time that we all should speak about this and we should take a step against it. I don't want anyone to feel the way I am feeling rn. Let's stand against this. Let us tell them the right way. Throwing balloons of semen on women doesn't prove your masculinity. It is a shame that we connect things like these to our festivals. The whole concept of "Bura na mano holi hai" should honestly get banned because YES we feel bad, disgusting when men like you come out on streets around holi."
These women were antagonized in the name of a festival. The sad part is that these are not unrelated incidents but part of a much bigger problem. It's quite evident from the post of another student Sange Thungon. She is a student of Delhi University who recounted a similar incident.

"This is not new. Sure, I didn't get semen thrown on me, but men flinging balloons on us and calling us names using the excuse of Holi is a regular affair around this festive time. I have been experiencing such things for the past two years. Men often ride by on bikes and make it a point to target girls specifically. Harassment is normal for them,"
The college strongly condemned this incident. In light of this incident, the Women's Development Cell of Lady Sri Ram College has called for an emergency meeting. They posted this statement on Facebook:
Pinjra Tod, an autonomous body that protects the rights of women students in DU expressed their view on the issue with a Facebook post.
Delhi University has also posted their own set of regulations to make sure Holi remains a safe festival for all, especially women.
Following the incident, here is how some of the Netizens reacted:
These incidents are happening for few years around Lady Shri Ram College. There are people who lurk around the college to attack women with semen filled balloons. As it is done during Holi, so women are expected to shrug off the incident and pretend everything is ok.
It's NOT ok! Stalking, hitting women with a balloon, or abusing is not ok. Not during the festival or any other days. It is never ok to pursue someone without their consent.
If you are harassed/stalked/abused during the festival or any other time, you can dial the following numbers:
How do you think we can decrease such crimes? Let's know in the comments below.

Final Offer?
The owners of the farm we went to buy have been going back and forth with us. We make an offer and they make a re-offer. Yesterday, we made what we think might be a final offer! JB hired a casual friend to do an overview of the land just to make sure that John wasn't missing anything. The friend thought it was a great location to set up a permaculture farm. So ... now we wait a little bit more. But most likely, this week, we should know if we are buying this place! Stay tuned!

The Victoria Harbor Lumber Company Store and Library
The library was said to have been promised to the villagers of Victoria Harbour by Mr. John Waldie – the owner of the Victoria Harbor Lumber Company. As the story goes, Mr. Waldie promised to build a library for the community if they in turn voted for prohibition of liquor in the village. The men of the mills knew their jobs depended on the way they voted, so the vote passed.
John Waldie
Afterwards, as promised, construction began on the library in 1914 and completed in 1916. It served the community as a library until 1927 when the last lumber mill closed and the Company left the village. The building was deeded to the Corporation of the Village of Victoria Harbour in 1933.
The building sits on its original high stone foundation. The style is reminiscent of the English renaissance revival, and is crafted from pine and cedar. The front door has been replaced and the stairs have been removed; however the original decorative transom windows and wood work remain in place. The lamps on either side of the door replace those formerly present at the front of the building, one on each white pillar. Although the building has been repainted, the original paint scheme remains, matching the original paint scheme. The inside has seen some renovation over the years as the use of the building has changed. However the original floors remain.
Across the street is the former Company store. The building was built in 1902 by the Company to supply workers in the mills and their families with food and supplies, and came to be known as the "Company Store". By operating the store themselves, the Company was able to give credit to their workers during the off season, supplying the community with goods when the mills were closed for the winter.
The store had a change trolley that ran from the front cash to the office. Payment and the bill were placed in a basket that travelled to the office and eventually returned with the customers change. Mill workers were paid in part by "script vouchers" that could only be used at the Company store.
In 1903 the store was deeded to the Victoria Mercantile Company who continued to operate the building as a general store until 1928. Subsequent owners have used the building as a garage and service station, a hardware store and general store.
It currently operates as an antique store and café under the former Victoria Mercantile name. The exterior of the building has been reclad in vinyl siding, maintaining its original "canary yellow" colour scheme. Otherwise it remains largely unchanged.
Arches and scrollwork adorn the upper windows and the façade. The storefront maintains its recessed doors centered between two large display windows. Despite renovations the original floors are still in place.
In 1982 the building was designated as a heritage building under the Ontario Heritage Act and is protected against demolition and changes that would destroy the heritage value of this local landmark.

A convicted sex offender out on parole was apprehended with the help of a four-footed officer after the sex offender cut off his GPS ankle monitor, authorities said.
According to the Riverside Police Department, Anaheim resident Gabriel Vasquez, 43, had a warrant out for his arrest for parole violation.
Riverside police officers went to where his GPS monitor was located. There, at the 1700 block of Main Street, they observed Vasquez in the driveway of a residence.
He apparently observed the officers as well, and Vasquez reportedly fled out of the back of the property, onto the grounds of nearby Fremont Elementary School. Riverside Police Department officers encircled the school and brought in air support and a K-9 unit.
Vasquez was found hiding in thick brush by Rocco, the K-9 unit, and taken into custody.
He was arrested for parole violation warrant and resisting arrest. According to the police, he was taken to a local hospital and later booked into jail.
