Philip Guston
Philip Guston (June 27, 1913 – June 7, 1980) was a notable painter and printmaker in the New York School, which included many of the Abstract Expressionists, such as Jackson Pollock and Willem De Kooning. In the late 1960s Guston helped to lead a transition from Abstract expressionism to Neo-expressionism in painting, abandoning the so-called "pure abstraction" of abstract expressionism in favor of more cartoonish renderings of various personal symbols and objects.

Seiko 5 Vs Hamilton Khaki
If you are currently looking for an automatic WWII era style watch, the page is again and again right for you to be read as well. The discussion which comes in form of a battel review will be titled as Seiko 5 vs Hamilton Khaki. Are they well-known enough, right? Of course the answer is yes. There is no doubt if people out there is being debated on how they compare to each other. The reason is simple even as simple as these watch will appear soon. They want a nice and simple, but still look luxury. So without any longer explanation, please enjoy it!
Seiko 5
History of Seiko 5 starting in 1963. With the advent of Sportsmatic 5. A model that is very rigid, strong, and has the impression of authority. Why is there a number 5? It was a major key attribute i.e. Seiko 5 Automatic winding, Day or date displayed in a single window, water resistance, a recessed crown at the 4 o'clock position, last, durable case and bracelet. Seiko 5 automatic machine generated from mostly 17 jewel, 21 jewel, 23 jewels, 25 jewels, and a small part of 29 jewels. The higher the jewels are used then the higher value of these hours. We provide and explain more about this because we have the other one in Seiko 5 vs SKX007. In automatic seiko products now are already using up to 50 jewels. Some of the newest products from Seiko as Completely Drives already use 50 jewels. Most Seiko 5 Automatic hours resulting from the movement of the spring (per) of approximately 28,800 movements per hour with an accuracy of about 15-25 minutes per day. This movement will in turn into mechanical energy that moves clockwise. It is also featured with Military-inspired timepiece featuring green dial, luminous accents, and day/date functions, green nylon strap with buckle closure, and Water resistant to 30 m (99 ft): In general, withstands splashes or brief immersion in water, but not suitable for swimming.
Hamilton Khaki
Hamilthon Khaki is known as stylish watch with an affordable watch. This watch is covered by stainless steel case with a canvas strap and it come with fixed stainless steel bezel actually. It is featured with blue dial with silver-tone hands and Arabic numeral hour markers. There are 24 hour markers and minute markers around the outer rim. The Dial Type itself is an Analog watch with the design of Luminescent hands and markers. You can see the date display at the 3 o'clock position, plus with Hamilton calibre F06.111 quartz movement. Do not worry about the security because it is supported by scratch resistant sapphire crystal which is strong enough. By Pulling or pushing crown, this watch will work easily. It has solidluminous case back with Case size is around 38 mm, while Case thickness is around 9.25 mm of round case shape.

The functions of date, hour, minute, second, 24 hour is appeared with Casual watch style. There is a watch label namely Swiss Made. That is how Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz 38 Canvas Mens Watch going on a review.

Both Seiko 5 vs Hamilton Khaki are good watches. At the prices indicated in the OP, Seiko is better value, but overall we all believe the Hamilton is the better watch. The dial on the Hamilton also seems much nicer and detailed as well. But once again, you really can't go wrong with either. Because there is an information that it is super easy to buy or purchase the Seiko and simply switch straps.

Don'ts in Diet During Pregnancy
Pregnancy, which is also known as gestation in humans is a very crucial stage in a woman's life. Proper care should be taken in order to give birth to a healthy baby. Only a proper diet can ensure the safe arrival of a baby. Woman who are pregnant are often advised on what to eat and the quantity of food is often doubled. However, most of the people forget to mention what is not advisable to consume during this critical stage. Well, in this post I am going to share my views on food that a pregnant lady should not be offered. Wrong food can become detrimental for a baby's survival.
Often, it is good to stick to food rich in vitamins and minerals. Also, it is appropriate to stick to a daily schedule of taking health and dietary supplements on time and without fail. Taking supplements can cover up for any lag in the diet or food consumed. After all, a fetus draws its nutrition directly from her/his mother.
Caffeinated Beverages: Usually it is best to avoid caffeinated drink such a tea or coffee. If you completely cannot avoid it, it is best to limit its consumption and better to have these drinks in small quantities. Also, soft drinks are a big no-no during pregnancy. It is believed that these drinks can negatively affect the growth of the fetus and may make a fetus underweight when born.
Dairy and Milk Products: It is highly unsuitable to consume cold unpasteurized milk during pregnancy. Unpasteurized milk contains lethal bacteria, which can cause discomfort to the pregnancy lady.
Fruits: Fruits like pineapple and ripe papaya are best avoided altogether. Papaya can cause early contraction of the uterus which can lead premature baby birth. Pineapple is strictly a forbidden fruit during pregnancy, since it makes the cervix softer and cause premature labor pains, which can lead to complications.
Fish: There is saying that eating fish can make people sharp and intelligent. However, certain fishes are best avoided during pregnancy. Fishes such as Swordfish or Shark contains mercury and hence can prove more harmful than useful during pregnancy. Also, canned fish should also be saved for post pregnancy diet.
Uncooked Non-Veg Items: Uncooked eggs are not considered good during pregnancy. It contains bacteria which can lead to unwanted complications. Uncooked or partially cooked red is also not meant for pregnant ladies. It contains bacteria which is called 'Listeria', which can be detrimental for the proper growth of the baby. Food for a pregnant lady should be cooked with utmost care and should be hygienic.
All Purpose Flour (Maida): White flour, also known as Maida or all purpose flour is okay for normal consumption. However, the food items prepared using white flour should be consumed in limited quantities. It is best to stay away from it completely if possible. Foods which are too sweet are also something that should not be eaten in large quantities. It can lead to weight gain and may trigger gestational diabetes.
The above list of food items should be avoided during pregnancy. However, it is always good to check with your medical practitioner, gynecologist, and dietitian. Some edible items can trigger false labor pain and can lead to premature birth and can even lead to miscarriage. In addition, it is best to go for a walk regularly, however, if you are advised for complete bed rest by your doctor, do so.

Truth be told, Mamma H and I share some things in common. I have a real feel for the ennui she's feeling; I was born with itchy feet and an itchy mind. It isn't that I bore easily; I don't, but I need dozens of things to do and deadlines and pressure, a steady hum and thrum, or, well, I do right poorly with empty time. So I feel for her, although I'm blessed to be less than half her age and still believe there's lots I haven't seen and lots left to learn. I reckon Mamma H would agree there's always more to learn, but she's a bit jaded when it comes to folks, having seen a heap of dumbasses in her time. You'll see, though, if you'll read her piece, that she might feel like she's seen it all in her time, but she's still raring to go and find a way to have fun with it.
I figure she's got the right of it there. She's an optimist and so am I. We might not be able to fix them, show them, bring them to the light, but we can shine a light on them and have a bit of fun at the same time. It's a three ring circus, folks, that's for damn true. So, you might as well get some popcorn and enjoy the show. If we can't laugh, find the humor, and the joy, what's the point?
Of Ennui and Douches
Mamma H here; the Raisin, bless him, is sleeping off the last bit of loving. Man didn't learn nothing from our mad dash through the town in the back of Thelma's pickup.
Lordy, I'm done old enough I seen everything at least three times around. Got me more ennui and more douchebags and asshats around than an old broad can about stand. Ain't enough blackberry wine to deal with it, that's for damn true, and it just ain't right. I don't mind the excitement, but something new at this old age would be a sight for sore eyes.
Lordy, I'm done old enough I seen everything at least three times around. Got me more ennui and more douchebags and asshats around than an old broad can about stand. Ain't enough blackberry wine to deal with it, that's for damn true, and it just ain't right. I don't mind the excitement, but something new at this old age would be a sight for sore eyes.
It seems like it's the same old damn stuff, round and round again. In other words, once a dumbass, always a dumbass. Now, sure and there's some inventive ways of being a dumbass upon occasion and I can't say I didn't find the fellar with the whuppin religion somewhat interesting, but the fact is, I knew his daddy, and his daddy had one of them, too, only he confined it to the bedroom, if ya ken me.
A gal gets to the overly ripe age of 90 something and she expects some ease. Now, I ain't complaining, mind you. I'm damned glad to be still kicking. Even more glad to have the Raisin beside me and more, if ya ken me.
It's just that it wears at a body, until you feel yourself wound tighter than Willa waitin on the folks to get their morning paper so she can let up her pent up Bully, you know? Ain't been no ease here at all. And yet it ain't the none of it new to me. Thelma and Louise are busy little beavers, wandering the town and putting out the various fires that folks keep metaphorically (and not) setting, and every now and then I get roped into dealing with some of the overflow issues. Lord, I'm hoping to see something new for a change, like folks coming to their senses, getting the douchebaggery knocked out of em, but the truth is, once a douche, always a douche. Looky here, Mamma H just calls em true. Ain't no point in mincing them words none.
Ain't enough blackberry wine for me to deal with all the asshats that have collectively decided to descend on Stink Creek. The Sisters up there at the Perpetual Agony Hospital and Emporium got the grand old idea to extend their market shares and offer themselves up as a fat clinic and drug rehab. So, we've got folks coming from far and wide to get themselves some Sisterly love and fixin up.
Of course, that means Thelma and Louise are even busier than usual, rounding up these folks and making em feel welcome, as the sisters had the grand idea that most of the folks could be outpatients. They got hold of some of them trailers that were left over from the hurricane a few years back and they set up a trailer park right aside of their Subway at the base of the hill. Now, they also arranged with the Church and Bar of the Holy Spirit and Spirits, pastored and bartended by Reverend Porter, to run a van out and back so the outpatients could socialize and spiritualize with the Stink Creek citizens.
Yeah, that's just what you need in a town of folks you've already seen are diverse folks is a couple hundred more with some significant issues and a van running em into town for bibles and booze. It's a match made in heaven. Thelma and Louise have done been deputized; it's gotten that bad. The sisters wait til the folks are good and in a pickle and convert them outpatients to inpatients. They let Milo work the day shift and then go back to his room at night as he ain't quite worked out all his issues. Him and Luther are doing some chicken therapy together. Luther's learning to share the chickens and Milo's learning not to scream and freak out when he takes them. It's a right interesting therapy to watch happen, for damn true.
Once the outpatients are converted to inpatients, the sisters bus in a new set of outpatients. We're in boom times in Stink Creek. We got folks coming in and opening up shops to cater to the overeaters and druggies. We've got wooporiums opening, offering special magic water to cure the overeating; folks with crystals and bunches of dried grass coming and setting up tents on the town square to fix the druggies. And we've got barbecuers bringing their big smokers and cooking by the whole hog. We've even got some Freudians who've come round, set up shingle. Been a long time since I done seen Stink Creek in boom times like these, and I tell you, if it were new to the eye, I might not be feeling me so much ennui. It's the same damn thing. People believing tomfoolery to be real, and asshats taking advantage of a body's willingness to believe.
Ain't nothing new under the sun is what I fear me. And ain't no one hardly upset over the nonsense because for once everyone who wants a job in Stink Creek has one. The sisters are hiring right and left. Hell, I may have to hobble my way on up and get me one of them jobs, too. They got a screaming therapy up there and they's looking for a ringleader. Hee. I can scream at them, maybe help em see their inner dumbass.

Apprentice Beau Mertens maintains his narrow lead in the Melbourne jockeys' premiership after a winning double at Flemington but he has also faced questions from stewards over one of his rides.
Mertens went into Saturday one win ahead of Craig Williams in the premiership and both riders claimed two wins apiece.
Mertens won on Schism and Cannyescent to take his season tally of metropolitan victories in Victoria to 66.
Williams won aboard Charlevoix and Ability and remains one behind as he chases a sixth premiership.
Stewards also questioned Mertens over his tactics on fourth placegetter Hot Ruby in the David Bourke Provincial Plate (1600m), particularly early in the race and early in the home straight.
However, they accepted the jockey's explanation after taking into account the instructions from trainer Luke Oliver and the sectionals of the race.
"It probably looks like she is dashing home but on my feel it was only grinding home," Mertens told stewards.

We called him "Mean Man." And rightfully so.
This happened years ago, but we never forgot it. We're a family of grudge keepers. We hold on to grievances with both hands.
"Mean Man" was a personal manager with big name clients. A ferocious negotiator, "Mean Man" was accustomed to getting things his way.
So the Kahala had these big round, rubber rafts, donuts with no hole, so, technically, they could not accurately be described as donuts. Though that will not deter me from referring them as donuts.
I rented one for the day at my family's request. The donuts were an enjoyable change of pace. You know, you're lying on a beach chair, you get sick of it after a while. So you get up, and you lie on a donut. It's different. It's lying on water.
So I'm on the donut by myself after lunch one day, when suddenly, out of nowhere, "Mean Man" comes hurtling at me, hollering,
"Get off my raft!"
Terrified by his loudness and the pulsating veins in his forehead, I tried as calmly as I could to make sentences. I explained to him that it was my raft. It was like reasoning with a volcano. This guy gets what he wants. He insisted that his clients get paid in gold bars. And they got paid in gold bars!
In the end, things worked out – "Mean Man" realized his mistake, though he never apologized – but the experience left a terrible taste.
"A man tried to throw me off my own raft."
It is not something easily let go of, demonstrated by the fact that I am still writing about it more than a decade and a half after it happened.
It has never been easy at the beach. (See: My republished two-parter "Too Big For My Bathing Suit.") Not insubstantial sums of money slipped surreptitiously into the right hands were needed to insure the certainty that your beach chairs would be set up and waiting for you when you arrived at your selected location every morning. (For some reason, though the Kahala is a luxury hotel, the number of beach chairs always the-opposite-of-exceeded the need.) (I cannot think of what word for "the opposite of exceeded" is.)
This year, however, the situation was decidedly worse. It was explained to us that guests had taken to reserving their beach chairs months in advance, creating the necessity for those unaware of the altered protocol to arrive at the chair rental kiosk at 8 A.M., to get their names written down on a beach chair "Waiting List." (Though this sounds outrageous, a hotel guest I met informed me that when he stayed at the Four Seasons on Maui, to insure beach chair availability, he had to show up at four-thirty in the morning! Imagine looking forward to a restful vacation, only to discover that a chair on the sand requires you to arise in the dark, sacrificing half a night's sleep on a daily basis!)
But, as the comedian Jimmy Durante used to say,
"Dem's the conditions that prevail."
Or, as someone I once knew used to say,
"Whaddaya gonna do?"
What you're gonna do is to rise smartly at seven A.M., throw on some clothes, and sleepwalk down to the kiosk, joining other sleepwalkers who have lined up to get their names listed as high as possible on the determinative "Waiting List." (You were prohibited from signing up the day before. The rules insisted that you show up in person every morning.)
So I did.
And despite following the rules and doing everything right…
This happened.
At eight A.M. an attendant sets up two beach chairs (actually they're loungers, but they call them beach chairs) in a choice spot, a tree-shaded location, just steps from the hotel's bar (and the alcohol-infused "Lava Flows" and its outdoor restaurant.
Our "Waiting List" number having been called, we have also scored a canopied cabana, set up closer to the water.
The "incident" in question took place, ironically, on December Twenty-Fourth, the eve of the arrival of the exalted "Prince of Peace." I am lounging on a beach chair, relaxingly Kindling Les Miserables; Dr. M is ensconced in the sun-shading cabana abutting the gently lapping waves. Suddenly, my tropical luxuriance is shattered by a loud and angry voice blaring hostilely in my direction:
"Hey! You're sitting in my chair!"
I look up from my Kindle, startled and in the preliminary stages of "rattled."
"I ordered eight beach chairs. (COUNTING THEM OFF, POINTING AS HE GOES) "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven… (THEN, POINTING DIRECTLY AT THE CHAIR I'M LYING IN)….eight!"
Here are the facts. I had stood there at eight in the morning, watching the attendant set up two beach chairs and one cabana. I tipped the attendant seven dollars for his services. I knew, therefore – because I had been there, watching him when he set them up – that those beach chairs were for us. With this indisputable evidence, I addressed the angry man, as calmly as a person uncomfortable with confrontation can speak, and I said,
"Let me tell you what I know."
"Let me tell you what I know. (POINTING AT THE BEACH CHAIRS, AND COUNTING A SECOND TIME) "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven…(POINTING DIRECTLY AT ME, MORE ANGRILY THAN THE FIRST TIME)…EIGHT!
"I will state my position once again…"
"Are you one of those dumbass lawyers?"
At this point, under calmer circumstances, the comedy person in me would have said,
"Hey! Who are you calling a lawyer!"
But instead I said, somewhat but not entirely incongruously,
"Are you on vacation?"
To which, unwilling to concede a thing, my irrational antagonist replied,
"Well I am!"
That's the best I could do at the time. Thinking back the next day on what I could have said, I came up with, all pretty much variations on the same theme, such as,
"If I could imagine the perfect vacation, it would definitely not have you in it."
"It takes a lot of energy to be unpleasant in Paradise."
And, of course, my all-time favorite, which I have thought many times but never used,
"I'd put a curse on you. But you already have one. You're you."
(A friend, hearing the story, proposed, "I thought it was my chair, so I peed in it." Not my style, but it may well have touched a nerve. Which is the reason it's not my style. "Touching a nerve" tends to trigger a physical assault, an eventuality I try at all times to avoid.)
The situation was ultimately resolved by the hotel's Beach Authorities, but the bad taste, as with the "Mean Man" incident remained, and, I imagine, it will continue to stay with me.
For life.
Okay, I'm going to take one conciliatory shot at this, because that's the kind of guy I am.
You know how people who grew up poor often say,
"We were poor, but we didn't know it, because everyone around us was poor too"?
Well, maybe it works the same way at the other end of the spectrum.
"We were entitled, but we didn't know it, because everyone around us was entitled too."
It's like,
"Who doesn't get the best table at a restaurant?"
"Who doesn't travel in a private jet?"
"Who doesn't get the exact number of beach chairs they asked for? And, if there is one less than we requested, it has to be because some over-the-hill television writer is 'squatting' in it."
You know what? It's not the same. But I'm not exactly sure why.
Many you can help me with this.
Why am I more sympathetic to expectations of nothing than I am to expectations of everything?
They are both experiential expectations.
What exactly is the difference?

Interesting! Where did you find the algorithm for compression type 6 (old-style JPEG-in-TIFF)?
C code for compression type 7 (new-style JPEG-in-TIFF) has been available for a long time as part of libtiff. Just download it from http://www.remotesensing.com/libtiff/. The code is in tif_jpeg.c.
A specification of compression type 7 can be found at http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/TIFFTechNote2.html
This document also explains why it is a terribly bad idea to try to implement compression type 6. Libtiff contains read-only code for this deprecated compression type.

Enermax ETS-T40fit CPU Coolers Review (Page 1)
Enermax's ETS-T40fit CPU coolers go under the chopping block today as we investigate the Black Twist and White Cluster versions.
Introduction, Specifications, and Pricing
Enermax has delivered a whole new lineup and series of coolers based on a design they released back in 2013, the ETS-T40 CPU cooler. The idea this time is to build upon the success of the original design, yet bring it back with many fan options to choose from, allowing it to adapt to particular needs. This is done by offering one version with a single 140mm Twister Fan, and then there is another version with a single 120mm fan, and both of these two coolers are left in their natural copper and aluminum states. The coolers we were sent to look at however are a fair bit different. Not only do the two we have to look at offer LED fans where the others do not, but they also are covered in a Thermal Conductive Coating, one black, and one in white.
We can see why these coolers were chosen out of the group of four, as they are the most attractive of the series in our opinion. Looks are not everything, though, and Enermax knows this and employs other tricks of the trade to help this cooler contend with the masses in our charts. Along with the TCC being applied to the base, heat pipes, and the fins, the fin arrangement is meant to be blown through in only one direction. There is a visible arrow on top to note this, and the reason for this is that each fin has tabs punched into them to help distribute the air as it passes through this single tower cooler. They also make sure to offer varying performance in these last two versions outside of just the color of them too. They send one of these coolers with a pair of Cluster PWM fans while the black version is cooled with a single TB Vegas like fan, but there is only one LED mode for this version.
Today as we bring forward two of the four Enermax ETS-T40fit coolers, the ETS-T40F-BK, and the ETS-T40F-W, and their main selling feature is that they "fit" on most motherboards. They are sure to keep away from the memory in this design, in any of the four designs actually. They were also sure to mind the room needed to populate the top PCI-e slot on motherboards. However, this does not apply to Mini-ITX motherboards. The last think we can think of that should keep you wanting to read more is that all the versions online will cost you less than $50.
The ETS-T40F-BK is where we will start. This cooler will fit anything since and including AM2 sockets for AMD, and on the Intel side of it, LGA775 and newer sockets. The cooler assembly measures in at 126mm long, 40mm wide, and stands 161.7mm tall, not including the fan. Using four 6mm diameter copper heat pipes, an aluminum base plate, and a stack of aluminum fins, this cooler weighs in at just 460 grams. The fan included in this kit is a Twister bearing fan that is 120mm in size. With the fan powered with 12V, it can spin at 1800RPM delivering 75.98CFM with 2.28mmH2O of static pressure. This fan is also powered via a 4-pin connection, and once powered also offers many blue LEDs around it much like the TB Vegas fan does.
When it comes to the ETS-T40F-W cooler, however, there are some slight changes to note. This time, we are given not one but two fans that are 120mm in size. These fans produce 105.9CFM each at speeds near 2200RPM, and the static pressure also increases to 3.6mmH2O this time. These two are Twister bearing fans, but these are Cluster fans with the Enermax name in the metal band around the frame. The only other thing that changes with this design is that rather than a black TCC being applied, they opted to make this cooler white, and matched the fans and LEDs to that as well.
When it comes to shopping, do so wisely. We are seeing that at Amazon pricing starts at $39.99 for the vanilla ETS-T40fit-TB, and we are seeing $85 for the white version you are about to see, and an astounding $120 listing for the ETS-T40fit-RF that comes with a 140mm fan. Then again if you decide to give Newegg a shot at taking your money, they seem to have supplied us with a much better system. They decided rather than to gouge customers; they have the entire line for sale for just $44.99 including shipping. For our intents and purposes, we will be looking at Newegg pricing as we move onward.

Spring Grove's Jordan Hahn feared his best opportunity yet at playing in the U.S. Amateur was slipping away after shooting 2-over-par through 13 holes in the last round of a qualifier July 23 at White Deer Run in Vernon Hills.
"I looked over at my instructor (PGA professional Kiel Alderink) and my caddie and said, 'We've got to step on the gas a little bit,'" said Hahn, who had a 6-under 66 in the first round to lead the 90-golfer field.
"It's now or never."
Hahn responded with four birdies in the last five holes, placing second overall with a two-round total of 8-under-par 136 and claiming one of three spots in the 119th U.S. Amateur at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club in the village of Pinehurst, North Carolina, which starts Monday.
Lake Bluff's Andrew Price beat Hahn, a 2015 Richmond-Burton graduate, for first place with a 9-under-par 135. The top three finishers automatically advance.
Hahn failed to qualify in three previous attempts. Crystal Lake's Ethan Farnam, now a junior at St. Mary's College of California, was the last local golfer to play in the U.S. Amateur four years ago.
Crystal Lake's Lexi Harkins qualified for the U.S. Women's Amateur in 2016.
Hahn will be one of 312 golfers playing in the nation's most prestigious amateur championship, including 49 of the top 50 players in the World Amateur Golf Ranking.
"It meant the world to me," Hahn said of qualifying for his first U.S. Amateur. "That was the whole goal of my summer. ... All around, my game is feeling good, and I feel like it's peaking at the right time. I'm excited to try it out and put it to the test."
Hahn will tee off 7:18 a.m. Monday on the 7,555-yard, par-70 Pinehurst Course No. 2. He'll then navigate the 7,219-yard, par-70 Pinehurst Course No. 4. on Tuesday, after which the 312-player field will be cut to 64 for match play, which starts Wednesday and ends Sunday.
Placing in the top two at the U.S. Amateur gives a golfer exemption for the Masters and the U.S. Open. Golfers, however, have to maintain their amateur status for a full year in order to compete.
Hahn is making his first trip to Pinehurst, which previously has hosted the PGA Championship, Ryder Cup, U.S. Open and U.S. Women's Open, and will get two practice rounds Saturday and Sunday.
"I just want to get a good feel for the golf course when I get there and learn as much about it as I can," Hahn said. "I've heard a lot of great things, and I've also heard it's a big challenge near the greens."
The 6-foot-6 Hahn, who has aspirations to turn professional, doesn't want to look too far ahead.
He recently finished a brilliant four-year career at Wisconsin with the best single-season scoring average in school history (71.68). Hahn also became the first Wisconsin golfer since 2009 to play in the postseason, finishing in a tie for 35th with a 218 (5-over-par) at the 54-hole NCAA Regional Championship in Louisville, Kentucky.
"Hopefully I have a good week of golf," Hahn said. "Earning those exemptions, obviously, that's why everybody goes there. Those are big accomplishments for any golfer.
"The only thing I can control is putting in the work and having fun. If I can go out there and have fun, chances are I'll play all right. So that's my main goal, go out, have fun and be loose, and just enjoy it."

Need Some Help With THC Detox?
Why Is THC Detox So Hard?
There are 3 major issues with most THC detox products attempting to remove cannabis from your system:
1. High lipophilicity of metabolites - Simply put, THC is fat soluble and the metabolites tend to get stuck in fat cells as a result.
2. High protein binding of metabolites in the blood stream to albumin – your body can only eliminate free unattached THC through the kidney and bowel.
3. "Bottleneck" of metabolite formation in the liver. In order for your body to clear THC your liver has to turn it into a variety of more water soluble metabolites.
Depending on the level of usage and the person in question (age, gender, weight etc.) the half-life (time the drug stays in your body) varies greatly.
For a one-time user it can typically take 3-5 days to test negative. For a infrequent user can possibly take a week to 10 days. As for daily consumption, several weeks to well over a month.
There are also case reports of well over a month to 2 months. This was in large (over 200 lbs) and heavy users (daily or multiple times daily).
What can you do?
Dilution - which has its limits. If you over dilute your urine the site won't accept the sample, as it won't meet urine creatinine and specific gravity requirements for validity.
Fiber - this helps to clear more drug through the bowel and helps bind some.
Still often times this will not be enough if it could take several weeks to test clean and you are fearful of a random, on probation, or about to take a pre-employment screen and can't wait that long. You need a detox product that actually works and makes sense. No overly complex instructions, no gimmicks.
The perfect detox would:
● Provide reliable results
● Not have time sensitive directions
● Be permanent
● Not have complex instructions
● Target THC from multiple fronts to eliminate it
Green Gone is a new product on the market that does just this! If you want a permanent cleanse in a pinch, you can't beat it. You can learn more about it at greengonedetox.com
What makes it so good?
Green Gone is a capsule containing 5 key ingredients. A basic salt helps to increase urinary pH to help dissolve more THC into urine to excrete it. A fiber source helps bind THC in the gut to be excreted in feces. A natural non-steroidal anti-inflammatory helps detach THC from albumin in your blood. A liver inducer helps boost liver metabolism. Last, but not least, a diuretic helps to both dilute your urine, and increase urine volume for higher clearance.
Other benefits of picking Green Gone!

The Telegraph understands that the Spanish family, which sold its Alsa bus company to the British group in 2005, urged the US hedge fund and 18pc shareholder to strike a deal after a three-month stand-off.
The Telegraph has revealed that the two sides were close to signing a "peace deal" on Friday night which would involve Elliott agreeing not to agitate publicly for 12 months in return for Chris Muntwyler and two other international non-executives joining the board. Elliott – which also originally wanted NatEx to consider a merger with Stagecoach – had lodged a resolution to be voted on at Tuesday's annual general meeting calling for three non-executives, including Mr Muntwyler, to be appointed.
Although the Cosmens were originally believed to be ready to side with Elliott, it is believed that in the past week their position began to change.
The family, which has never publicly indicated which way it intended to vote on the issues raised by Elliott, is understood to have acted after it became increasingly concerned about growing support for the board from institutions including Legal and General and M&G.
Spokesmen for National Express and Elliott declined to comment. The Cosmen family could not be reached.

- #BarreBabe at Any Price - May 4, 2017
At the moment I am sitting on my couch with 5 Word documents open: the first draft of my Master's thesis, the bibliography, a draft of a press release for work, a petition for the Dean of my college, and the one I am currently writing. I keep repeating to myself "one more month." In a month's time my graduate coursework will be over, I'll have a diploma hanging on my wall, and I will no longer spend most evenings catching up on homework and reading after a full-days work and a few hours devoted to Pure Barre.
The past few months has been a trying time. I started a new job that demands far-more than 40 hours a week, I am in the home stretch after spending nearly 6 years at the same academic institution, and I became an addict… an exercise addict that it.
I know that I am overloaded. Time and again my friends and family have told me that I have too much on my plate. But hey, it's just one more month now! The obvious thing to remove from my schedule is Pure Barre. I'm under no contract. The hours I spend there could be put to use on homework, reading, or even sleep – something that is foreign to me at the moment. But I will not get rid of the one thing in my schedule that I need most.
Over the last 6 months, Pure Barre has given me the outlet I need to move forward. Four or Five times a week I go to a place where women support each other, care about each other's well being, and cheer each other's goals and accomplishments. For every crossed finishline, engagement, pregnancy announcement, wedding, graduation, and even crises and emergencies, the Pure Barre DC family supports and aids both their team and their clients.
I have felt this encouragement. We have clients and team members at Pure Barre who I can bounce paper ideas off of, ask career advice, and even just vent about my loaded schedule. While I haven't had much time for sharing meals and drinks with friends in this crazy period of my life, I've found a support system at Pure Barre that encourages me to keep going and that reminds me, "One more month!"
I am greatly looking forward to pressing print and handing my final draft of the last paper in my academic career (for now) to my advisor. I won't say I couldn't have done it without my Pure Barre family. I could have. It wouldn't have been as fun and instead of my barre addiction I probably would've turned to Diet Coke and Smartfood, which is certainly a less healthy option. I have support from my incredible family, my friends, and my coworkers, but knowing that I have Pure Barre to break up my day has certainly helped me through it.
As the Holiday season approaches and things get hectic, find the time for yourself. For some it's going for a run, or going to a class, or even just stretching before going to bed. Whatever your thing is, look forward to it! And beyond that, take it seriously.
When I submit my next post, there will only be one Word document open on my computer. Cheers to one more month!

1356: Battle of Poitiers
The Battle of Poitiers is fought on 19 September 1356, part of the Hundred Years' War. English forces, led by Edward the Black Prince, defeat French forces and capture King John II of France. He is brought to England and imprisoned in Berkhamsted Castle. Like the Battle of Crécy, England's victory is due to the large contingent of 2,000 longbowmen, many of whom came from Berkhamsted.

Hancock: you've got to follow the rules or we'll ban all exercise outside
Matt Hancock, the health secretary, has said the government could ban exercise outdoors if people flout lockdown rules.
After saying earlier that sunbathing is against lockdown rules, he told Andrew Marr that if people flout them "we might have to take further action".
"I understand how difficult these measures are, of course I do. But the truth is the more people go out from home, the more the virus spreads," he said.
"We've said because of the positive benefits to your physical and your mental health that it's ok to exercise on your own or with members of your own household.
"But if the result of that is that too many people go out and flout the other rules because they say 'well if I can exercise, then it's fine for me to do other things', then I'm afraid we will have to take action.
"My message is really clear, if you don't want us to have to take the step to ban exercise of all forms outside of your own home then you've got to follow the rules."
Axel von Trotsenburg, the World Bank managing director of operations, has warned of an impending global recession.
Speaking on Marr, he said: "What we are seeing today is unprecedented. Certainly we haven't seen something alike since the second world war and also not during the financial crisis 11 years ago."
He added that during the last week, 6.6m people in the US applied for unemployment benefits, on top of 3.3m people who filed the week before.
The World bank would be providing financial assistance worth $160bn to poorer countries over the next 15 months.
"We need to consider that these health systems are the weakest in the world and we need to provide our full support," he added.
Professor Neil Ferguson has said there are "some signs" that the current lockdown measures in force across the UK has slowed down the coronavirus epidemic.
Ferguson, a key epidemiologist in advising the government, told the BBC's The Andrew Marr Show that he thinks the crisis will "plateau in the next week to 10 days".
Angela Rayner, Labour's new deputy leader, said the party would work with the government to battle the coronavirus pandemic but would hold it to account.
Speaking to Sky New's Sophy Ridge on Sunday, Rayner said the government's was failing on testing, and on protecting frontline NHS staff, and ensuring businesses and employees could "do the right thing".
Rayner believes she has experienced symptoms in line with those of the coronavirus including a sore throat, a temperature, a headache and fatigue.
"I'm disappointed that Matt Hancock after seven days of having the virus went out when the World Health Organisation has said that you should wait for 14 days," she said.
"I'm going to exercise that and I think it's right that we should do that."
Former health secretary Alan Johnson has condemned the government's response to Covid-19.
The former Labour MP told Sophy Ridge on Sunday: "I am absolutely amazed at how badly prepared the government is for this."
He added that during his tenure as health secretary, in which the swine flu pandemic took place in 2009, the government had a risk register.
"Top of our risk register was a pandemic," he said, saying that second on the list was a terror attack.
He added that the basic arrangements that government's should be prepared for in the event of a pandemic was protective equipment for NHS staff, alongside testing.
Dr Rinesh Parmar, chair of The Doctors' Association UK, has raised concerns about the "severe lack" of personal protective equipment (PPE) for frontline NHS workers.
He told Sky News that some doctors had told the association that they were having to reuse single-use surgical masks, while others were holding their breath during procedures on coronavirus patients because they didn't know if their equipment would offer enough protection.
He added that some doctors, many of whom did not have symptoms in line with Covid-19 but who lived with people who did, had been sent to a NHS testing centre only to be told their name doesn't appear on a list and they couldn't be tested.
The prime minister Boris Johnson is in "good spirits" but still has a temperature over a week after he was diagnosed with Covid-19, according to Hancock.
"The prime minister is working away inside downing street but he's making sure he protects others by following public health advice," he added.
Hancock, who also contracted the virus, said he did not know if Johnson had been visited by doctors at Downing Street.
Hancock said that 8% of NHS frontline staff were currently off work self-isolating amid the coronavirus outbreak.
Within that group, 5.7% of doctors are currently off work. "Those figures are stable but we want to get them down obviously, and one of the ways we do that is make sure testing goes up," said Hancock.
Hancock: sunbathing is against the rules
Health secretary Matt Hancock is first up on Sophy Ridge on Sky News this morning, emphasising that people should not flout the coronavirus lockdown rules despite the warm weather.
"Sunbathing is against the rules that have been set out for important public health reasons," he said, adding that it was "unbelievable frankly to see some people are not following that advice".
"I say this to the very small minority of people who are choosing to flout the guidance you are putting other's lives at risk and you are putting yourself in harm's way."
He added that the "vast majority of the public" were following guidance to stay at home unless they are going to buy essentials such as food or medicine, seeking medical care, going to work, or exercising.
Hancock's call for the public to adhere to public health guidance comes as Lambeth Council closed Brockwell Park in south-west London on Saturday, after it claimed that more than 3,000 people had spent the day in the park, sunbathing or hanging out in large groups.

Starmer to give first major interview since victory in Labour leadership race
Good morning, and welcome to Sunday's UK-focused coronavirus live blog. We'll bring you all the news as it happens, with Matt Hancock due to appear on Sophy Ridge's Sky News programme this morning along with new Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner.
Meanwhile, Jeremy Corbyn's successor Keir Starmer gives his first big interview after yesterday's victory to the BBC's Andrew Marr. We're also expecting the first names in his shadow cabinet to be announced.
Starmer has a daunting to-do list as he begins his first full day as Labour leader. The Observer's Michael Savage has summarised the challenge ahead of him, from Covid-19 and the economy to antisemitism:
Elsewhere, London mayor Sadiq Khan has described his "devastation" that five London bus workers have died after testing positive for coronavirus and urged people to stay home on another sunny day. And there are troubling signs in the midlands, where the death toll has now accelerated past the capital.

Kevin Hart opened up about HIS family's new addition, Kenzo Kash, in Saturday Night Live's (SNL) monologue.
Hart and Eniko Parrish welcomed their first child together, who's now 3 weeks old. The newborn cutie is Hart's third child and he jokingly admitted that he wasn't excited about having another child initially.
"I can admit to everybody that I wasn't excited about having a baby in the beginning … I didn't know if I wanted the baby," said Hart. "The reason why: I got two babies already. One's twelve, one's ten ….. I told my wife, those babies are your babies too," he continued. "She said, 'I know, but they're old, I want new ones."
Hart shares two kids with ex-wife Torrei Hart, Heaven (12) and Hendrix (10).
Let's face it, 2017 has been a productive year for the comedian, who's grossed over $32.5 million this year. However, let's not forget the extortion scandal.
Parrish was 8 months pregnant when Hart openly apologized to her and his kids for making a big mistake with another woman concerning a "sexually provocative video." Hart was forthcoming about the incident but revealed that the video was an extortion attempt for money.
Parrish stood by her husband's side and got her wish on Nov. 21st! Her movie-star husband has since been enjoying fatherhood all over again with the exception of changing diapers, according to his interview with ET's Nichelle Turner. The comedian said that he's not looking forward to the "terrible 2" age either.

Three Maritime Self Defense Force ships, JS Kashima, JDS Yamagiri, and JDS Sawayuki arrived today in San Francisco, docking at Pier 27 just after 9am this morning.
The MSDF Training Squadron is on the first part of a six month, round-the-world cruise that started in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii and ends in Busan, South Korea. On board are approximately 190 officer cadets of the Maritime Self Defense Force.
The visit, meant to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the voyage of the Kanrin Maru, as well as the 1960 U.S. – Japan security treaty, was also historic for another reason. The Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force has not visited San Francisco since 1992. I'm not sure why. I get the impression they used to visit quite often–I visited a squadron in the late 1980s that was virtually identical in makeup to this one, but with different ships.
It was a bright, uncharacteristically sunny day in San Francisco. Kashima, the squadron flagship, docked first, gently nudged into place by two local tugboats. Yamagiri fell into place behind it, and Sawayuki fell in on the port side. A band played on board the Kashima.
Awaiting the squadron was a mix of press, consular officials, some Japan Society staff, a delegation from the Nichi Bei Kai, a commander from the U.S. Navy (apparently standing in for his boss, who was held up at SFO), the 2010 Northern California Cherry Blossom Queen, Arisa Hiroi, naval enthusiasts, and a lot of Japanese kids. The admiral in charge of the Training Squadron, Rear Admiral Shinichi Tokumaru, spoke, as did Consul General, and others.
Within forty-five minutes of docking, JDS Yamagiri was taking on visitors! Everyone was very friendly and welcoming, and the crew handed out free MSDF and Japan Training Squadron hat pins.
Tourists were allowed to board and walk the ship from bow to stern, then up a flight of stairs into the bridge, and then up to the flying bridge.
A former fleet destroyer, Yamagiri seems to have kept most of its armament, including Harpoon missiles.
The tour wound down and Hoop and I went to get a cup of coffee. As we did, who but the Russian guided missile cruiser Varyag slipped by, trying to elude us. The San Francisco Comical had said it would be arriving at 2pm, but it was at least an hour and a half early.
I followed Varyag down to Pier 30/32, where a small crowd had gathered to see it. Varyag will be open for public tours Thursday.
There was one more ship visiting San Francisco, the cruiser USS Bunker Hill, the first of the VLS-equipped Aegis cruisers. It looked a little worn. It was parked behind Pier 17, with a buoy cordon in the water, and small patrol ships running around like dobermans. Bunker Hill will not be open to the public.
I'll be back on Monday to check the ships out again and chat up the crew. In the meantime, I've uploaded some more pictures to my Flickr account. Enjoy.
Thanks to Takemichi Nagaoka and Midori Yamamitsu from the Consulate General of Japan.

Previously we broke the news that apple has 55 autonomous vehicles testing in California, Apple's segue into the autonomous vehicle business continues to boom as the company now has 62 vehicles and 87 drivers testing on public roads in the Golden State as of May 2018.
The numbers were released by California's Department of Motor Vehicles, the governing body overseeing the testing process in the state. Currently, 423 vehicles are authorized for self-drive testing in California.
Apple Leading the Way
While the majority of manufacturers and companies with permits for self-autonomy in California did not see any great changes to their quantity numbers, Apple has soared ahead with another 7 self-drive cars, equating to half of the vehicles added to the entire program in a two-week period. Still, while the steady increases show leadership potential in the category, Apple's end ambition remains unclear.
As has been their tradition, Apple remains publicly mum on what they plan to do with their self-autonomy technology, and even claimed this outright in a recent criminal complaint motion against a former engineer. "Apple has made general statements to the press about being interested in autonomous vehicle development," the complaint stated, "but the details of Apple's research and development for the Project is a closely guarded secret that has never been publicly revealed."
And while they have not applied for any driverless car permits in California thus far, they have claimed that 3.7 percent of their staff are "disclosed on the project" with 2700 specifically considered "core employees." Add to such numbers the fact that Detroit's big-3 veteran Steve Kenner is now on staff and clearly a big part of this program, and it is not a leap to suggest that Apple has big plans. Still, such secrecy has only helped to fan the flames of hype and hysteria amongst tech fans, most notably those online.
Other Companies in The Mix
Still, while Apple, GM Cruise, Waymo and Tesla continue to dominate the numbers, there are far more companies getting their vehicles into the self-drive testing pot. Big car companies Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz, Nissan, BMW, Honda, Ford, and Subaru are all testing anywhere from one to five self-drive vehicles in California. But car companies aren't the only ones interested. Think well-known tech-champ Delphi or master of innovation Bosch or consumer product leader Samsung. But this is just a snippet: in all there are more than 50 companies actively participating with test vehicles in California alone.

Tuesday's election brought in successes and losses for North Carolina's openly gay candidates, reducing the overall total of open elected leadership for the state's LGBT residents. In the state's largest city, two openly lesbian and gay incumbents were returned to their seats, while Chapel Hill's high-profile openly gay mayor lost his bid for a fourth term leading the college town.
Charlotte's LaWana Mayfield (D-Dist. 3) and Al Austin (D-Dist. 2), both Democrats, sailed to victory on Tuesday, each garnering more than 70 percent of the vote against nominal Republican challengers. Mayfield and Austin, together the city's very first openly lesbian and gay elected leaders, have been at the forefront of local LGBT inclusion and efforts to pass LGBT-inclusive non-discrimination ordinances in the Queen City this year.
In the Triangle, election night brought losses, though, to two openly gay candidates. Chapel Hill Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt lost his bid to challenger Pam Hemminger. Kleinschmidt carried 45 percent of the vote to Hemminger's 54 percent. Town Councilmember Lee Storrow, who'd become the youngest elected official in the state when he took his seat at age 22 in 2011, also lost his race, coming in seventh in a four-way at-large race.
Neither Kleinschmidt's nor Storrow's loss are the result of any negative anti-LGBT backlash in Chapel Hill, long considered one of the state's most inclusive and LGBT-friendly towns. The college town, home to the University of North Carolina, has been embroiled in local debates over economic and housing development. Kleinschmidt had been a leader in advocating for taller, more dense developments. Hemminger and her supporters weren't happy with the way current leaders were handling the small town's growth challenges.
Storrow, too, had faced his own personal challenge during the election cycle, charged with driving under the influence in August and pleading guilty to the charge in September. Storrow wrote a public commentary apologizing for the incident the same month. It's not clear if the DWI had an affect on Storrow's re-election bid. It had cost him an endorsement from a local newspaper, but Storrow still had the backing of more than 30 current and former elected leaders.
A third openly gay leader lost his re-election bid in the state, as well. Incumbent Franklinton Mayor Elic Senter lost his bid to challenger Art Wright 53-47 percent.
Diminishing LGBT representation
Tuesday's losses in Chapel Hill and Franklinton have the practical effect of decreasing openly LGBT elected representation in North Carolina.
Before Tuesday, North Carolina had nine openly lesbian or gay elected officials. After election returns, that number had been cut by a third.
The representative decrease is a trend that began in 2014, when for the first time in a decade LGBT North Carolinians lost entire representation in the state legislature.
Though seemingly unrelated to any anti-LGBT backlash or campaigning, the diminishing representation of LGBT people in local and state politics has already raised eyebrows.
"LGBT elected officials must be leading a conversation about fair and inclusive communities," Chris Sgro, executive director of Equality North Carolina, said in a post-election statement. "This year, we took a bold approach to work to elect out candidates in every corner of the state. It is unacceptable that LGBT North Carolinians are not appropriately represented in our communities."
Sgro added that his group would expand its efforts in 2017 municipal campaigns to ensure broader elected representation for LGBT residents.
Update (Nov. 4, 2015, 1:45 p.m.): The original version of this article did not include mention of an important pick-up. The election night wasn't all bad news in terms of losses. In Gastonia, just a half-hour outside of Charlotte, openly gay community leader Robert Kellogg picked up a City Council seat there. Kellogg is the former chair of the Gaston County Democratic Party and LGBT Democrats of Gaston County.

Once again, I have the pleasure of reviewing a movie that is absolutely impossible to find for viewing from my couch. And in this case, what a tragedy. Luckily, I just so happen to be a member of an incredible film club (and sister club) that is lucky enough to view amazing movies at our local Alamo Drafthouse. And thank God for this! With a crazy group of Psycho Cinema peeps, I was able to FINALLY see True Romance…again….for the, I don't know, hundredth time. It truly is a tragedy that this movie isn't more readily available. With an all star cast, amazing plot, and blood and gore from start to finish, this movie is a must see.
Clarence (Christian Slater) is a shy, but sweet comic book store employee out on his birthday catching a triple kung fu feature…by himself. In what appears to be an accidental "bump in", he meets Alabama (Patricia Arquette). It is love at first sight and Alabama comes clean that she is call girl paid by Clarence's boss as a birthday gift. This new info does nothing to damper Clarence's love for Alabama. In fact, he makes it his mission to save Alabama from her super creepy and incredibly violent pimp, Drexl (Gary Oldman) which sets off a set of events that forever change their lives. In one bloody scene after another, Clarence and Alabama find themselves running from the law, hiding from mobsters, and working angles to sell more cocaine than you could suck up with a Dyson.
Directed by Tony Scott and written by Quentin Tarantino, this is cult classic movie making gold. Tarantino's story is classic Tarantino. Blood, gore, violence, language, kung fu, he puts it all in there. The direction by Scott is mesmerizing. The fight scenes are well choreographed and seem completely real, the on screen chemistry between characters is life like, and at one point the audience literally takes a roller coaster ride….literally. Each and every scene is scripted so well and so full of action and thrill, that even after my 101st viewing, I was floored….and we haven't even addressed the acting.
Christian Slater (swoon). Patricia Arquette. Dennis Hopper. Gary Oldman. Brad Pitt. Val Kilmer. James Gandolfini. Samuel L. Jackson. Tom Sizemore. Michael Rapaport. Bronson Pinchot. Chris Penn. And Christopher Walken. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?! This in an insane list of names, an ensemble that you just have to see together on film. The on screen chemistry between this current, past and present group of A list of actors was something I have never seen before and I doubt I will ever see again. Christian Slater was made for this role, he was perfect (of course). Slater grasped on to the greeky comic book guy role and flew head first down the fast track to drug lord. He never faltered or failed to make me believe in the evolution of his character, driven by an infatuation with everything cool about the image of Elvis Presley. Walken was Walken, terrifing, mesmerizing and somehow funny as always. Gary Oldman played a scared, one eyed reggae pimp like that was what he was born to do. Penn and Sizemore were the best cop duo I have ever seen on screen, complete with Jersey accents in L.A. Nailed it. But my personal favorite was Michael Rapaport as Dick Richie, Clarence's best friend. He had me laughing, crying, and thanking my lucky stars that I wasn't in his shoes.
There is absolutely nothing I didn't like about this movie. Not one f*cking thing! It is pure genius from start to finish. The story, the directing, the acting, the camera angles, the setting, all of it was amazing. So, no you can't rent it or stream it or even find it on YouTube and I doubt you will be as lucky as I was to be able to see it on the big screen in all its glory, but that's okay because you can buy it. And you should. This movie can be and should be seen over and over and over again.

If there's one thing Gwyneth Paltrow won't ever do, save for that one time, it's disappoint on the red carpet. And let me tell you, my friends, last night was no exception. The 39-year-old mother of two and lover of all things fancy wowed at the Bambi Awards yesterday (I never heard of them either, but apparently it's some prestigious awards thing in Germany). The actress wore a body-con, emerald green, super-low cut, SPARKLY dress from Eli Saab's Spring 2012 collection. Flaw. Less.
But in addition to simply walking away from this photo of Gwyneth with a fluttery feeling and a love of all things pretty and girly, I think there are two important lessons that need to be learned from Ms. Paltrow and her choice of dress.
One is you can never -- ever -- go wrong with sequins and sparkles once November hits. I don't consider myself the girliest of girls (I.E., the odds of you catching me in ratty Chuck Taylors are exponentially higher than you catching me in a pair of Christian Loubs), but when I see sequins, a part of my brain is triggered and I go a little nuts. I love sequins! They're so fun, they're so festive, and they instantly make me want to organize a New Year's Eve party -- with a dress code. And best of all, they really do look good on anybody -- there are black sequins, white sequins, silver sequins, and of course, best of all, gold sequins. And they really don't have to be as "fancy" as they used to be. I mean, if you're going to take the Gwyneth route, then yeah, they're going to be fancy; but you could totally pair a sequined top with black tights, jean shorts, and a baggy cardigan for more of a "London cool" look if you will.
The second thing we can learn from Gwyneth's dress is that pretty much the only person who can wear something like that is, well, Gwyneth Paltrow, or somebody with her build (I.E., not me). Rocking a long, tight dress is no small feat, but throw in a plunging neckline and green sequins -- we're talking about 1 percent here, people.
But that's okay. We still have sequins, remember? Beautiful, shimmery, sparkly sequins! And as long as we've got those, I'm pretty confident everything's going to be alright.
Do you heart sequins? What are you wearing for New Year's -- any ideas yet?

Do you ever experience tightness or tension in your jaw when you wake up? Do you ever suffer from mild irritation or extreme pain in your jaw? Do you have similar pain or discomfort in your throat or in your neck? If so, you could be suffering from TMJ disorder, which is often referred to as temporomandibular joint disorder.
As you may have guessed, TMJ can affect more than your neck and your jaw. In fact, if you have TMJ disorder, you could experience common headaches and even migraines. You'll usually experience these headaches because TMJ makes it difficult for you to chew correctly. This places pressure in the wrong areas, resulting in these issues.
People with TMJ may also experience odd sounds when they chew, or when they open or shut their mouth. This is one of the most common symptoms of TMJ. If your TMJ isn't addressed, the sounds you hear could get louder and more persistent. These sounds could even become painful in time. Ear and facial pain can also stem from TMJ disorder. If this pain becomes too intense, it can actually cause your muscles to lock in place.
Are you interested in learning more about TMJ disorder? Are you worried that you're suffering from this condition? If so, or if you'd like to meet with our dentist, Dr. [doctor_name], please don't hesitate to contact us by calling [phone]. We'll gladly answer any of your questions and help you address any of these problems. We're excited to meet with you soon!

We are expecting a small south here at home today with a stronger one tomorrow. So we might get a dive in.
However the forecast for Vidal this weekend is looking bleak!!!! The annual Winter Game Fish by the Wahoo guys is on and the wind looks like it it going to let loose. Its the problem with this time of the year, it is some of the best fishing ....but the worst weather.
In saying that, the forecast has changed twice in as many days so I think we will only know on Wednesday or Thursday whats going to happening.
Never the less I know the Wahoo boys will throw one HELL of a party any way!! At this stage the Sunday looks like the most fishable and with the promise of large wahoo and cuta around ...... I will be chompping at the bit.

What is a Franked Dividend?
A franked dividend is an arrangement in Australia that eliminates the double taxation of dividends. The shareholder is able to reduce the tax paid on the dividend by an amount equal to the tax imputation credits. An individual's marginal tax rate and the tax rate for the company issuing the dividend affect how much tax an individual owes on a dividend.
Franked Dividend
Understanding Franked Dividend
A franked dividend is paid with a tax credit attached and is designed to eliminate the issue of double taxation of dividends for investors. Basically, it seeks to reduce a dividend-receiving investor's tax burden.
Dividends are paid by companies to their shareholders, usually on a quarterly basis, out of profits. This implies that these dividends have already been taxed at the corporate level. So, a shareholder receiving the dividend should not be obligated for the tax on that dividend when it comes to paying their individual income taxes, as this would constitute double taxation.
Franked dividends eliminate this double taxation by giving investors a tax credit, commonly known as franking credit, for the amount of tax the business paid on that dividend. The shareholder submits the dividend income plus the franking credit as income but will end up being taxed only on the dividend portion. Franked dividends can be fully franked (100%) or partially franked (less than 100%).
The formula for calculating a franking credit for a fully franked dividend paying $1000 by a company whose corporate tax rate is 30% is:
Franking credit = (Dividend Amount ÷ (1 - Company Tax rate)) - Dividend Amount
Franking credit = ($1000 ÷ (1 - 0.30)) - $1000 = ($1000 ÷ 0.70) - $1000 = $428.57
The shareholder would receive a fully franked dividend of $1000 and their dividend statement would show a franking credit of $428.57. If the dividend were unfranked, the shareholder would have owed taxes on the entire $1,428.57 ($1000 + $428.57) but now their tax burden would only be on $1000 even though they declare $1428.57 as taxable income.
Key Takeaways
- A franked dividend is paid with a tax credit attached and is designed to eliminate the issue of double taxation of dividends for investors.
- Franked dividends can be fully franked (100%) or partially franked (less than 100%).
- The shareholder submits the dividend income plus the franking credit as income but will end up being taxed only on the dividend portion.
Fully vs Partially 'Franked Dividends'
When a stock's shares are fully franked, the company pays tax on the entire dividend. Investors receive 100% of the tax paid on the dividend as franking credits. In contrast, shares that are not fully franked may result in tax payments for investors.
At times, businesses claim tax deductions, maybe due to losses from preceding years, which allows them to not pay the entire tax rate on their profits in a given year. When this happens, not enough tax is paid by the business to legally attach a full tax credit to the dividends paid to shareholders. As a result, a tax credit is attached to some of the dividend, making that portion franked, and leaving the rest of the dividend untaxed, or unfranked. This dividend is then said to be partially franked. The investor is responsible for paying the remaining tax balance.
VanEck Vectors S&P/ASX Franked Dividend ETF
In April 2016, New York-based investment firm VanEck announced the launch of a security called the VanEck Vectors S&P/ASX Franked Dividend ETF. The security was the first exchange-traded fund (ETF) in Australia that included companies in the S&P/ASX 200 that paid out 100% franked dividends in the preceding two years and have sustainable dividend policies. The EFT is designed to track the S&P/ASX Franked Dividend Index that S&P Dow Jones Indices created with VanEck. The security was designed for increased flexibility, transparency and cost-effectiveness.
