Dear Vice-President Pence,
In your trip to Indonesia on Thursday April 20, you praised that country's tradition of "modern Islam."
You praised Indonesia's indigenous form of Islam as an "inspiration to the world."
You are quite right that Indonesia has a long track record of propagating a moderate and inclusive form of Islam. In 2003, former Indonesian President Kyai Haji Abdurrahman Wahid co-founded the LibForAll Foundation, which promotes peaceful Islamic values around the world.
Then deputy national security advisor for combating terrorism, Juan Zarate, called LibForAll "the loadstar in efforts to defeat the ideology of radical Islam."
However, Indonesia has also seen increasing examples of religious intolerance, especially since 2005, when President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono declared he would take strict measures against "deviant beliefs."
In February, Human Rights Watch stated "Indonesia's legal system perpetuates discrimination against religious minorities." The hardline Islamic Defenders Front staged rallies demanding the death of the former governor of Jakarta following a dubious accusation on blasphemy – an accusation which is thought to have cost the man's reelection.
In Aceh province, where sharia law is implemented as state law, young couples are caned for activities as innocuous as spending time together. In 2015 in Aceh 11 churches were torched by angry Islamist mobs.
Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia, the most brutally oppressive theocracy on earth, has donated vast funds to Indonesia to schools, especially to teach Arabic and religion. In March, King Salman of Saudi Arabia visited Indonesia with a 1,000 person entourage, signing ten memoranda of understanding and investing an additional billion dollars in the kingdom.
Since 1980, Saudi Arabia reportedly built at least 150 mosques, founded a university in Jakarta, built several Arabic-language institutes, paid for books and teachers for over 100 boarding schools and funded thousands of scholarships.
All of this is part of the Gulf kingdom's project of funding its radical Islamic doctrine worldwide.
Saudi Arabia's austere form of Islam mandates that women not travel without a male guardian, that blasphemers, adulterers and gay people are executed and that thieves have their hands amputated and these laws are ruthlessly enforced within the kingdom's borders.
Yet at the same time, Vice-President, as you praise Indonesia's modernism, Saudia Arabia is eroding Indonesia's tolerant Islam in favor of its ultra-puritanical alternative.
If you are serious about supporting Indonesia in standing up against radical Islam, please act to prevent Saudi imperialism from wiping out the more tolerant branches of the Islamic faith and replacing them with Wahhabi puritanism.

Willemsplein 1
6811 KA Arnhem
Only a 4 minute walk from Arnhem Central train station.
Train/Public transport:
Willemeen is best to be reached by public transport since it is located in the city centre in a paid parking zone next to the Central Station. If you come by bus the local busstop is "Willemsplein".
The city centre has a paid parking system. You can park underneath the Train Station (Parkeren Centraal) for about €15 a day. ) In the area around Sonsbeekpark there is some free parking, but it is about a 15 minute walk. "Onderlangs" also has some free parking spots along the street facing the Artez school and at the parking area on opposite side of the traffic lights at this school. (mind the signs! The rest is a paid parking area!) at about a 10 minute walk. You could also park at the park and ride (P+R) at the "Gelredome" and take the bus into the city. For more information:
There will be a spot to unload in front of Willemeen. You will be given more information about this in the future. We are going to make a schedule for this so we have enough room for everyone. Always follow the instructions of our coördinators and remove your vehicle when you are ready. Please park your car following the tips above.

Take a Chance by Annalisa Nicole

Title: Take A Chance (Running Into Love Book 1)
Author: Annalisa Nicole
Release Date: October 30, 2013
Goodreads Link:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18805598-take-a-chance?from_search=true
Willow Emery is in the middle of chemotherapy when she literally runs into Asher Wellington on the sidewalk after treatment with a rather unfortunate outcome. She is alone in a new city and doesn't need anyone in her life. If life has taught her anything it's that you can't rely on anyone.
Asher is a young widower, devastated by the tragic death of his wife Olivia three years earlier. He has given up the idea of ever finding the kind of love that he shared with his late wife. Will one fateful day bring two lost souls together? Will taking a chance lead them to a happily ever after or will the challenges they face keep them apart?
Author Bio:
I am an "Indie" adult contemporary romance author. I am a wife and a stay at home mom. I have been married to my wonderful husband since 1996. I love being a stay at home mom to our two teenage boys. We have a handful of pets, a dog named Lucy (who is in my books), a guinea pig named Flufy, (my son spells her name that way) and a cat named meow-meow, who adopted us many years ago and has never left.
I never liked reading as a kid and I only started reading romance novels in the past few years. Soon I couldn't get enough of them. My Kindle and I are inseparable now. A thought occurred to me in December of 2012 that maybe I could write a romance novel. So I went to work with the encouragement of my husband and my sister-in-law. It didn't take long to figure out that I really enjoyed writing.
I entered my book in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Contest in January of 2013. Needless to say my three hundred word pitch didn't even make it through the first round. My book never even got read. So now what do you do with a 50,000+ word book? With more encouragement by my wonderful family I decided to self- publish it. So here I am today a self- published author. It has been a lot of hard work but I wouldn't change a single thing.
It has not been an easy road and there has been a lot of self- doubt, but I stuck with it and I wouldn't change a thing. I've been blessed to have been put in contact with some amazing people that have supported and encouraged me every step of the way.

Placing my hands on his shoulders, I gently push him down and straddle his thighs. I love the way he kisses me, always with a slow and burning desire, never rushed. Each time is like he's making love to my mouth telling me a story of his love and gratitude. Taking his ear in my mouth I exhale a soft moan and shower feather soft kisses down his neck, making him shiver. Licking down the center of his chest over his rock hard abs, I take him into my mouth, he inhales sharply as I swirl the tip with my tongue. I take him all the way in my mouth until he hits the back of my throat and he whispers my name. Loving the soft silky skin, I bob my head up and down his length slowly. He pulls me up and switches positions. Laying underneath him he slowly enters me, filling me completely. I reach my hands around his back and dig my nails into his skin and slide them down ever so slowly. He moans loudly, "Do that again."

I heard this expression only recently, not realising it was a common one. It made a lot of sense.
You can worry all you like about how an event will turn out, what the weather will be like, whether your business is good enough; whether YOU are good enough.
It is what it is.
If it rains on your wedding day, it rains. It doesn't prevent you getting married and it doesn't change how special that moment is. You can't control the weather, or how well an event turns out. It is what it is.
Some might argue that you can change things; put in more effort, more marketing. A business is what you make it, after all. But looking at life in general; accepting your circumstances, your way of life and your achievements... Accept them for what they are...
Because it is what it is.
Defeatist? No. It's not giving up. It's not dismissing experience. It's not assuming you shouldn't aim higher.
The way I see it? You can only move on when you stop analysing your life and comparing it to others'. Your life is what it is. No matter how you got to where you are now, it's happened. It was what it was.
Life in the here and now: It is what it is.
Embrace it.

A very special dress that successfully combines the purest lines with beautiful details. The skirt, fitted at the natural waist, blends into a double-look bodice with a semi-sweetheart neckline. This dress comes with a lace jacket, with 3/4 sleeves and an off-the-shoulder neckline, that gives the piece a very feminine touch.

So much for the valiant Indiana pension fund, bravely standing up for its shareholders against the UAW-Chrysler-Fiat-White House-TARP banks juggernaut. Alas, this is the end of the road. The Supreme Court, after putting a surprise block on the deal last night, has given it a go.
WSJ: The high court pulled back from the issue after granting itself additional time to consider appeals filed by several Indiana pension funds and a coalition of consumer groups. The bulk of Chrysler's assets can now be transferred to Fiat, which is set to take over the company through a fast-paced bankruptcy process that was brokered by the U.S. and Canadian governments.
In a brief order, the Supreme Court said the pension funds and consumer groups did not satisfy the high bar necessary for the court to block the transaction. "The applicants have not carried that burden," the high court said. "Our assessment of the stay factors here is based on the record and proceedings in this case alone."

Astronomy & Astrophysics Seminar: Extremely energetic quasar outflows: HST/COS observations in the rest-frame EUV
Prof. Nahum Arav, Virginia Tech
03 July 2019, 14:00
Kaplun Building, Flekser Hall 118
For quasar absorption outflows, spectral coverage of the EUV is the only way to probe the very high ionization phase that carries 90% or more of the outflowing material, and obtain the distances of each outflow from the central source. I will describe our findings in our HST observations of 10 such objects.

When we think of airports, we think of planes taking off and landing. Hopefully, ours.
Airports are more than just airplanes. They require a complex telecommunications infrastructure- calls from passengers inquiring about parking, inquiries about the status of aircraft undergoing minor maintenance, even the occasional medical emergency.
To enable smooth communications, Edmonton (Alberta) International Airport has decided to go VoIP.
Solution: the Avaya MultiVantage Communications Application suite, which includes Avaya Communication Manager IP telephony software and messaging applications. With the aid of MultiVantage, the facility has just consolidated and linked two mission-critical remote locations with their main communications infrastucture.
These locations are the Edmonton Airport Fire Station and the Air Operations Maintenance Centre. Hey, Canadians spell "centre" with an "re," so I need to be culturally sensitive.
Airport officials say that the solution has helped them converge more than 600 voice and data lines, as well as save some $200,000 a year on service fees for phone line moves, adds and changes.

Definitions: a rant.
And what does meaning mean?
Sense or significance.
Okay, so let's see if we can discover the meaning of one or two words by looking them up in a dictionary.
Elastance: physics the reciprocal of capacitance. It is measured in reciprocal farads (darafs).
Hm, well, that's cleared that up, then (though I note with delight the use of backslang: farad/daraf. Neat).
In case you're thinking, yes, but that's science and no one can understand that stuff anyway, here's a definition of becket:
a clevis forming part of one end of a sheave, used for securing standing lines by means of a thimble.
Got that, have you?
No, I thought not. I think it's something to do with the ropes that hold up the sails of a ship.
Finally, here's a definition from the great lexicographer Samuel Johnson.
Network: Any thing reticulated or decussated, at equal distances, with interstices between the intersections.
But of course Dr Johnson was taking the mickey.
Don't you just love him?
Word To Use Today...good grief...I think we'd better go with network, don't you. The net bit comes from the Old English net, which meant net.
3 comments:
What dictionary do you use??ReplyDelete
In the Shorter OED, 'becket' is defined as: 'A contrivance of rope-loop, hook, bracket, etc, used to secure loose ropes, tackle, or spars,' which kind of makes sense to me.
I read once (somewhere) that one of the first rules of a good dictionary definition is that it doesn't use more complex or obscure words than the word being defined.
I don't think that rule had been established in D.J's time : o )
Hi, Ed.ReplyDelete
I use the Collins English Dictionary, the Concise Oxford, and the Oxford English Dictionary. I also online resources such as the Merriam-Webster and the free online dictionary.
I didn't like to say where these definitions come from, but, as long as you won't spread it, the becket and elastance definitions were both from the Collins.
I've sealed my lips!ReplyDelete

Yesterday I was standing at the meat counter in my local grocery store. An older gentleman had approached the counter just a few seconds before me, so when the staff member came over to help us, I waved him ahead of me to go first. We had a brief exchange of "No, you go first"s, before the man agreed to go ahead of me. I insisted, as he had been there first.
After the man left with his meat, the guy behind the counter said to me, "That was the nicest exchange I have ever heard from behind here. It was nice to hear that." "Oh?" I asked. "Yes," he continued, "People usually aren't that nice at all!"
I was surprised to hear this, and wanting to believe the best of people, I ended our conversation by saying "Well I think people are more anxious and uptight than usual, during the holidays…" "That's for sure!" he agreed with me, and handed me my pound of grass-fed beef.
As I wrote in my magazine article for Align Body & Soul this month, there is so much to do during the holidays. So much we feel obligated to do. Well at least, us women. Papa might have to put up the outdoor lights, but once all the household decorations are up, Mama still has a long list of tasks to accomplish, and a looming deadline. This time of year more than ever, it's easy to get stressed out.
Which is why today I'd like to share some of the activities (and non-activities) I have been occupying my time with… now that my Christmas cards are all mailed out of course!
Christmas Movies
When I was a kid, my favorite Christmas films were a set of "Christmas classics" my parents own on VHS. To this day, they are still my favorite movie versions of these stories. The Grinch is okay, but it's not my favorite. When I do watch The Grinch, I much prefer the old, classic cartoon version.
This year, I decided I needed to share my own childhood favorites with my children, before they get too old to remember them as part of their own early childhood memories, so I spent $8 on Amazon and bought Santa Claus is Coming to Town, The Little Drummer Boy, and Frosty the Snowman, which are all listed as "episodes" under a season called The Original Christmas Classics. Be sure to click on "More Purchase Options" to buy them in SD for $2 rather than $3.
I had to search for The Year Without a Santa Claus, which is listed separately but I found it. I am very disappointed that Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer is not available to purchase on prime video at this time "due to content restrictions," so maybe next year.
I think everyone loves Snow Miser and Heat Miser from The Year Without a Santa Claus! Actually hearing Heat Miser's song on our favorite radio station, Kids Place Live, is what reminded me about these awesome Christmas classics. Did you know they were actually made in 1969?
Christmas Crafts
Five weeks ago I discovered a free, local children's event 8 minutes from our house at our local library. It's called Finally Friday and we go now every Friday at 4pm, straight from school. It is craft projects for children ages 7-12, so it is perfect for my girls who are 6 and a half and almost 8. I love that we don't have to plan or prep or buy any craft supplies. All we have to do is show up. You can check your local libraries to see if there are any fun, free craft days on their calendars too.
The past two weeks my girls got to make giant lunch bag snowflakes and decoupaged Christmas trees.
As always, we are looking forward to this Friday. Will we make another Christmas craft? I'll edit this post with our craft project so you can see!
I was also very pleased to find a pre-assembled gingerbread house at Sprouts, as I despise the task of assembling! It was $12, a little more than the $8 ones at Walmart, but I appreciate the peace of mind that the Sprouts' house does not have preservatives or food dyes. I literally just gave my girls the box and let them go to town on the project after school one day while I made dinner. The result may not have been picture-perfect, but they were happy with it!
I also picked up a $7 all-in-one mess-free glitter craft project that my almost-8-year-old absolutely adored. She spent several hours independently glitterizing, and in the end we had some pretty decorations to display in the house.
They've also been coloring in a coloring book called Christmas Patterns to Color from Usborne, which is also great coloring fun for adults.
As for myself, I have been working on some small Christmas cross stitch projects. I know cross stitch may not be for everyone, and I certainly don't have the patience for it most of the year! But it is helping me to slow down and chill out this holiday season, and I may get a Christmas present or two out of it.
I bought a $9 book of "Christmas Quickie" ornament patterns and some stardust Aida cloth. I made one ornament from the book that took me 8 hours. I wanted to do some beading so I bought this Snowy Owlet kit for $11 and it took me 14 hours to complete.
Christmas Cookies
Rather than viewing Christmas baking as an obligation, we can choose to view it as an anti-stress activity. In this case, it really is all in how we choose to perceive our reality.
In this article from The Atlantic, millennials talk about how baking helps them cope with the stress of everyday life, year-round. "A lot of people have jobs that traffic in ideas or theoretical things, so it's nice to make physical things," says one. All agree. "Baking is mindful… it can have an emotional impact akin to practices that are intended to more directly affect mood, such as meditation or breathing exercises."
The best way for me to view baking as relaxing rather than stressful I've found is to bring an attitude of meditation and calm to the activity. I talked about cooking as meditation in my blog post Feeding My Family Love. Baking with love and attention is the same.
One thing I've found helpful over the years is taking out ALL the supplies and ingredients I will need for a project before I start. I also clean up as I go, putting used measuring cups and spoons that I won't use again in the sink, and putting away ingredients. This helps keep my workspace clutter-free and reduces overwhelm. I was pleased to hear KonMari mention both of these tips in her book Spark Joy. KonMari is also the author of the New York Times Best Seller The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. Often our instincts are on-point, we just have to listen and be open enough to hear them.
It's important to find a space in your life when you won't feel rushed. So don't start baking two hours before you're supposed to be at that Christmas party! Always expect that your baking project will take longer than you think it will, and you will enjoy a relaxing time spent baking.
Christmas Chill
Another way to chill out during the holidays is just to soak in the fun of it. There are so many ways to have fun during the holidays without breaking the bank, or even spending any money at all.
It has been between 30 and 60 degrees here in Colorado Springs most days this month, so I have been able to take walks around the neighborhood a few times per week. I am practicing the Walking Meditation from Mindful Birthing (lifting, placing, shifting, lifting, placing, shifting), and enjoying all of the beautiful Christmas decorations my neighbors have put up.
You stressed over getting it put up, now take the time to actually enjoy your tree! I've really been enjoying curling up by the fire and lit Christmas tree with some hot cocoa or peppermint tea and a book on weeknights when we don't watch movies. In the post-bedtime quiet this space is peaceful and serene. I wouldn't rather be anywhere else.
And if you're going to read, maybe you'll enjoy a Christmas story. There are lots of them available for free at your local library. I took all our Christmas books out of our library closet and lined them up along the baseboard in the hallway along with some library books so that the girls can remember that it's the perfect time of year to read Christmas stories.
It's always fun to get lots of packages and Christmas cards in the mail around Christmastime! My girls have been spoiled this year! There was one week we received at least one package every day.
Asking Siri has been our Advent calendar this year (I know, lame!), but next year I think we'll do this sweet, simple Santa's beard Advent calendar my friend Katie is doing with her children.
This year we went to two parades, a live nativity scene (aka a 4-H club of costumed children + animals running amuck = sweet, sweet chaos), and a holiday party at a friend's house.
We even got to see some cool ice sculptures. With all the free events our county offers this time of year, there's always someplace fun to go with a little gas money.
My last suggestion may not be possible for you unless you are an "amateur" ham radio operator like my Pop, and if you are, then you probably already know that you can call Santa on Christmas Eve on his radio as he flies around the world delivering presents. He can tell you where he is and you can corroborate this with the NORAD Santa Tracker online. Kids love this! This is a special activity my girls get to do with Grandpa.
This year's Christmastide has been fun and not too stressful for my family. It has really helped that we have focused more on free and fun. What have you been up to this year? What do you think you could start doing now to make your holiday time less stressful?

Title: Reading Cathedrals as Spiritual Texts
Author(s): SHELDRAKE, Philip
Journal: Studies in Spirituality
Volume: 11 Date: 2000
Pages: 187-204
Abstract :
Medieval cathedrals are 'texts' in the broad sense implied by semiotics. We need a key in order to "read' their sign systems and thus interpret their meaning. This article examines some elements of the medieval theology and spirituality that lay behind gothic architecture. It also examines the meaning of cathedrals as providing a center for many European cities. As 'spiritual classics', cathedrals demand careful interpretation, in the case of cathedrals this is not simply a matter of understanding architectural theory, the history of art, or even liturgical theology and the history of spirituality. Cathedrals are texts whose meaning is determined through performance and is therefore mobile and changing rather than fixed. The article concludes by asking whether only Christian believers may be part of the 'community of capable readers' in the process of interpreting cathedrals or whether we must also include the vast numbers of other visitors as part of the hermeneutical conversation.

Last Sunday December 11 at The Lair at the Metro Theatre, Sydney, a handful of exceptionally talented high school musicians showcased their live performance abilities for MySchoolAct 2011. These Five young bands tore the house down….but there could only be one winner…and this year, they hail from the Wild West of this fair country. Perth based '44th Sunset' stole the evening with their stellar indie presence.
They were engaging, unique, quirky and put on a brilliant show for the adoring fans. Lead singer of the indie rock quartet, Nik Thompson was ecstatic and overwhelmed by the response of the crowd and the feedback from the judges. "I feel like a unicorn who's just seen a double rainbow," he said. The band have already received radioplay from here to the UK, and performed at a kaleidoscope of eclectic events inclusive of an everywhere concert, winning band comps and numerous Festival and T.V show invitations. 44th Sunset were awarded the grand prize of up to $50,000 recording and marketing spend from Sony Music and up to $15,000 from Sony/ATV Publishing and in addition, they were added to the Big Day Out 2012 Perth lineup thanks to major sponsors Motorola.

This thesis examines how artificial neural networks can benefit a large vocabulary, speaker independent, continuous speech recognition system. Currently, most speech recognition systems are based on hidden Markov models (HMMs), a statistical framework that supports both acoustic and temporal modeling. Despite their state-of-the-art performance, HMMs make a number of suboptimal modeling assumptions that limit their potential effectiveness.

Báo cáo khoa học: "Using Machine Learning to Maintain Rule-based Named-Entity Recognition and Classification Systems"
This paper presents a method that assists in maintaining a rule-based named-entity recognition and classification system. The underlying idea is to use a separate system, constructed with the use of machine learning, to monitor the performance of the rule-based system. The training data for the second system is generated with the use of the rule-based system, thus avoiding the need for manual tagging. The disagreement of the two systems acts as a signal for updating the rule-based system.

Large vocabulary speech recognition systems fail to recognize words beyond their vocabulary, many of which are information rich terms, like named entities or foreign words. Hybrid word/sub-word systems solve this problem by adding sub-word units to large vocabulary word based systems; new words can then be represented by combinations of subword units. Previous work heuristically created the sub-word lexicon from phonetic representations of text using simple statistics to select common phone sequences. ...

Báo cáo khoa học: "Using Deep Morphology to Improve Automatic Error Detection in Arabic Handwriting Recognition"
Arabic handwriting recognition (HR) is a challenging problem due to Arabic's connected letter forms, consonantal diacritics and rich morphology. In this paper we isolate the task of identification of erroneous words in HR from the task of producing corrections for these words. We consider a variety of linguistic (morphological and syntactic) and non-linguistic features to automatically identify these errors. Our best approach achieves a roughly ∼15% absolute increase in F-score over a simple but reasonable baseline. ...

Turkish is an agglutinative language with complex morphological structures, therefore using only word forms is not enough for many computational tasks. In this paper we analyze the effect of morphology in a Named Entity Recognition system for Turkish. We start with the standard word-level representation and incrementally explore the effect of capturing syntactic and contextual properties of tokens. Furthermore, we also explore a new representation in which roots and morphological features are represented as separate tokens instead of representing only words as tokens. ...

It is important to correct the errors in the results of speech recognition to increase the performance of a speech translation system. This paper proposes a method for correcting errors using the statistical features of character co-occurrence, and evaluates the method. The proposed method comprises two successive correcting processes. The first process uses pairs of strings: the first string is an erroneous substring of the utterance predicted by speech recognition, the second string is the corresponding section of the actual utterance.

We have adapted a classification approach coming from optical character recognition research to the task of speech emotion recognition. The classification approach enjoys the representational power of a syntactic method and efficiency of statistical classification. The syntactic part implements a tree grammar inference algorithm. We have extended this part of the algorithm with various edit costs to penalise more important features with higher edit costs for being outside the interval, which tree automata learned at the inference stage.

It is often claimed that Named Entity recognition systems need extensive gazetteers--lists of names of people, organisations, locations, and other named entities. Indeed, the compilation of such gazetteers is sometimes mentioned as a bottleneck in the design of Named Entity recognition systems. We report on a Named Entity recognition system which combines rule-based grammars with statistical (maximum entropy) models. We report on the system's performance with gazetteers of different types and different sizes, using test material from the MUC-7 competition. ...

Results of computational complexity exist for a wide range of phrase structure-based grammar formalisms, while there is an apparent lack of such results for dependency-based formalisms. We here adapt a result on the complexity of ID/LP-grammars to the dependency framework. Contrary to previous studies on heavily restricted dependency grammars, we prove that recognition (and thus, parsing) of linguistically adequate dependency grammars is~A/T'-complete.

GREELEY — The wind is blowing at their backs, but John Johnson knows there's always a chance it could just blow his Greeley Central golfers right over.
Barring any unexpected gusts, the Central coach is expected to be celebrating by this evening with a fourth straight trip to the Class 4A state tournament.
The Wildcats, along with 24 other teams, tee off at 9 a.m. today in the 4A Northern Region Tournament at Boomerang Golf Links, one of six regionals being played across the state this week.
Central already clinched a Northern League division title and has all four of its competitors under a 77 stroke average.
But even though the Weld County teams have the advantage of playing in their back yard, you still might find Johnson with his fingers crossed.
"It's like going to the Super Bowl is what I compare it to," Johnson said. "In regional golf we might take 20 individuals out of 100 and all in one day. Winning a conference title is no guarantee we're going to win the region or finish in the Top 3, so it's a tense day for all of us."
The coaches will not know until they get to the event today
exactly how many state-qualifying team and individual spots the region gets. There are 84 total spots available in the state tournament.
Central sophomore Brandon Tomasovich, who has a 73.3 stroke average, is the only Weld golfer to already have punched his ticket with an exemption. Exemptions are given to the 10 players with the lowest season-long average differential, which is an average based on scores from sanctioned events during the regular season.
Tomasovich came in at No. 8, while Northridge senior Craig Corban was 0.1 in average differential behind Paul Berry of Steamboat springs for that 10th exemption. Corban is sporting a 73 stroke average.
The Northridge Grizzlies may have the biggest advantage at Boomerang, being it's their home course. That leaves coach Dave McCleave with high expectations for Corban and the rest of his squad.
"They've played Boomerang about every day for the most part," McCleave said. "I would think they have a pretty good chance."

We've all see an increase in female positivity all over the world. In all
industries women are screaming, "The future is female". The music industry is no
different. Female artists are proving themselves to be bold and demanding respect
from everyone around them. Proving that a woman can love her body, have sex
appeal and handle her business all on her own.
Megan Thee Stallion, an upcoming rapper from Houston, TX is no stranger to
this with lyrics like "Come in the room and I'm giving commands. I am the captain
and he the lieutenant" in her song Big Ole Freak. Megan is following in her mother's
footsteps as a female rapper. Unfortunately, her mother Holly Thomas, Holly-Wood
being her rap name has recently passed away. Megan has made it known that her
performances will not stop because "Holly would not want me to stop" she tweets
out to her fans. She released an EP in June 2018 called Tina Snow where you can
find a few of her most popular songs like Big Ole Freak, Freak Nasty and Make A Bag
feat. Moneybagg Yo. I suspect this is only the beginning for Megan Thee Stallion.
Some women in the music industry are on the rise due to the benefits of
social media. We all know that we are in a day and time where social media can give
anyone a platform to display something they are passionate about and develop
supporters and a following.
Artist like Doja Cat have taken full advantage of the power of social media by
making what she calls "meme music" with her song "Moo". Doja explains that she
created this song as a joke with her fans on Instagram live. She says she wanted to
make something that allowed everyone to have a sort of break. "The music industry
is very uptight right now and people need humor," she explains. Doja cat is from Los
Angeles California and has been making music for a couple years now. Back in 2014
Doja released an EP called Purrr! with her noted song "So High". It seems that it
wasn't until recently that others have realized Doja Cat actually has a nice voice and
plenty of other great songs like, Go To Town and Tia Tamera feat Rico Nasty.
I think it is safe to say that women will continue to speak out on all platforms
loudly and freely no matter big or small. It is quite invigorating for others to see
women of all shapes and sizes, being sexy and positive especially in a predominately
male industry. Both Megan Thee Stallion and Doja Cat have all of their music
streaming on all platforms for downloading.

Renowned Rug Designer Stephanie Odegard to Speak at Philbrook Museum April 15 on "Sustainable Design and Social Responsibility"
Presentation in observance of Earth Day's 40th anniversary
Internationally renowned rug designer Stephanie Odegard will speak at the Philbrook Museum of Art at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, April 15. In observance of Earth Day, Odegard will present "Sustainable Design and Social Responsibility."
Recognized as one of the interior design industry's leading figures, Odegard will illustrate techniques used in the hand-knotted rug industry of Nepal as well as share highlights of her journeys in remote places with traditional artisans. The presentation will demonstrate her pioneering designs and environmentally sustainable practices and how a socially responsible business provides for and enriches a dignified way of life for artisans and their families.
From 5:30-6:30 p.m., Odegard will demonstrate her process, and visitors will have a chance to enter a vegetable dye identification contest in the Patti Johnson Wilson Auditorium, Philbrook Museum of Art, 2727 S. Rockford Road.
Philbrook and SR Hughes, the Tulsa interior design studio and showroom that is the sole Oklahoma dealer for Stephanie Odegard hand-crafted rugs and home accessories, are partnering to bring Odegard to Tulsa.
"Stephanie Odegard is leading the way for socially conscious carpet manufacturing today," said Brian Hughes of SR Hughes. "She helped revive Nepal's carpet industry in the late 1980s by commissioning and importing Himalayan wool rugs, and she continues to be a force today in helping developing countries promote and preserve their traditional artisan crafts. Tulsa is extremely fortunate to have this award-winning designer come to speak at Philbrook."
Odegard and her company also are deeply committed to the RugMark Foundation in its fight to end illegal child labor in the worldwide carpet industry. All Odegard® carpets bear the GoodWeaveTM label by RugMark, which assures that no child labor was used in their making.
Odegard has received numerous awards for her design talents and for her commitment to social progress and philanthropic accountability, including the 2009 ASID (American Society of Interior Designers) Individual Product Prize, the 2006 Mountain Institute Award for Excellence in Sustaining Mountain Livelihoods, and the 2004 Aid to Artisans Award for Innovation in Craft. She also was named a 2004 "Giant of Design" by House Beautiful Magazine, and received the 2001 Peace Corps Association Business Symposium Award for Entrepreneurship.
Tickets for Stephanie Odegard's April 15 presentation at Philbrook Museum are $7.50 for adults; $5.50 for seniors (age 62+), and free for youth 18 and under. For more information, go to www.srhughes.com or www.philbrook.org.

I too have a bad look in that sense but after washing it out and cleaning the dirt or mess I feel better. For oily skin, you can try tissues to wipe as well and after which wash might make it best. You are beautiful in your own way even without makeup. For sure we wear makeup to look even prettier do you should surely wear but never forget your own reality.

I am from India and have been using Clamy Cosmetics. I have been using a brand Clamy Cosmetics for a while and I will suggest using face, eye and lip makeup from this brand. Rather you can choose a brand but this has really great quality and recently when I was researching I even got to know they are cruelty-free so best for any market.
How to become a cool beauty specialist
Priyasahani replied to Beautycool's topic in Skin Care TalkIt might be really great as I am not a specialist but a reviewer. It is kind of easy. You will have to work through a course or learn in an institute. You should also learn through youtube as youtube has many such experts who explain their way of working and creating the best makeup.

Makeup help needed
Priyasahani replied to ppmakeup's topic in Makeup TalkWell there have been some more competition in the market. As I personally saw at salon the person was using one unknown brand. He sold me that product and asked me to use it for a month which actually found to be great. I guess you could try candylove. I have been using it for over a month now and will purchase from the website when i need new. Also their eyelashes are quiet impressive as I used them and found to be really good.

People Helped in 2018: 410,885
Now a middle-income country, Kenya has experienced uneven growth. Regions with moderately and severely dry climates face immense challenges, including drought, hunger, malnutrition and poverty. Last year, acute malnutrition reached critical levels in Samburu, and serious levels in West Pokot, Tana River, and Isiolo Counties.
Less than half of children suffering from severe and moderate acute malnutrition are admitted for treatment in Kenya, with large differences across districts. Among the drivers of malnutrition are poor care and feeding practices for infants and young children. Working at community, district, and national levels, we aim to increase access to lifesaving malnutrition treatment.
► Sign up to save lives in Kenya and around the world.
In 2018, our nutrition and health teams in Kenya reached 72,533 children through lifesaving programs, providing treatment for acute malnutrition, micronutrient supplements, and training in proper infant and child care and feeding practices. Among other partners, we worked with the Ministry of Health to integrate nutrition treatment into training and protocols for community health volunteers, helping to improve health and nutrition through local outreach.
Our water, sanitation, and hygiene interventions reached 119,239 people. Our food security and livelihoods programs, which include cash transfers and support for disaster risk reduction for communities affected by drought, benefitted 189,186 people.
To support communities impacted by the deadly flooding in Tana River County, we launched an emergency response that included the distribution of emergency kits and basic supplies, nutrition screening and treatment, construction of latrines, and hygiene promotion to prevent disease outbreaks.

Since the debut of a story trailer at E3 for Cyberpunk 2077, further details about CD Projekt Red's upcoming sci-fi RPG have been steadily emerging. The latest tidbit comes courtesy of Kyle Rowley, CD Projekt Red's associate design director; Cyberpunk 2077 won't feature any in-game loading screens.
Seamless Travel Through Cyberpunk's World
CD Projekt Red's last major RPG, The Witcher III: Wild Hunt, featured mostly seamless travel. Geralt was able to travel across the game's different regions (and indoors) without running into loading screens. However, there were a few loading screens when he traveled between regions.
Kyle Rowley's comments appear to suggest that Cyberpunk 2077's six regions will all be connected seamlessly. He made his comment on the official Cyberpunk 2077 Discord. "[There are] no loading screens after the initial load into the game," he stated. There could still be loading screens when fast traveling or when entering into certain story-related locations. However, it sounds as though the vast majority of Cyberpunk's gameplay will be uninterrupted.
This revelation is just the latest in a series of informational tidbits released following the debut of the game's story trailer. Perhaps the biggest was that the game will be played in the first-person, rather than the third. Other revelations have centered around the game's role-playing elements; specifically, that the game's skill system will be open rather than restricted into preset classes. Another tidbit revealed that the game's difficulty options will closely resemble those of The Witcher III: Wild Hunt.
The removal of loading screens from travel might be relatively minor; given that most travel in The Witcher III had no intervening loading screens. Nevertheless, it is likely to be popular among fans. Few things can interrupt the flow of a dramatic story or action scene than an overly long loading screen, after all. For a game so filled with story and sci-fi combat, the lack of loading screens is nothing but a positive thing.

The warm moist air fills my nose as I walk into the greenhouse and my eyes are opened by the light and dark greens I see. My body begins to heat up as I start to walk around the displays with plants and greenery of every size. From the tall trees that tower over me to the small flowers I bend down closer to see, there are plants growing all around me.
I walk to one of the other rooms to be greeted by a display of red poinsettias and ivy hanging off of the tables covered with purple, orange, and white flowers. The soft sound of water running can be heard in the background as well as the humming sound made by fans regulating the temperature.
I am transported into the desert in another section of the greenhouse where cacti pop out of their pots and I avoid poking myself. Plants from Africa, South America and Asia coexist within the displays, giving me an opportunity to see plants I wouldn't normally see. Visiting the Gaiser Conservatory greenhouses in Manito Park, I get a glimpse of what the rest of the world looks like.
The Gaiser Conservatory was built in 1912 as a conservatory and as a backup greenhouse to support the Manito Park system. In 1974, the greenhouse was refurbished and in 1988 the dome was enlarged to accommodate more plants. The conservatory is named after Dr. David Gaiser, a longtime Spokane Park Board member.
Every month of the year there are plants blooming within the conservatory, allowing visitors to visit Manito Park, even when the gardens outside are not in bloom. Another draw to the conservatory is that it houses plants from different countries from around the world. Examples of plants include the Red Pineapple plant from southern Brazil, Umbrella Plant from Madagascar and Old Man cactus from central Mexico.
Stephanie O'Byrne works at Manito Park, and she thinks people like to visit the conservatory because they can see plants that don't normally grow in Spokane. "You're going to see a lot of orchids, a lot of flowering crops and a wide variety of plants," O'Byrne said.
She also encourages visitors to stop by the conservatory while visiting Manito Park because they get to experience a new environment and have a place to warm up during the cold winter months.
When you walk into the conservatory, it is split up into three main areas: the center greenhouse and two adjoining greenhouses. The center area is filled with tropical trees, flowers and plants, making you feel like you're on vacation in the jungle. A wall is dedicated to orchids, each one hanging in a pot off the wall. More plants frame a small water feature that creates a calming feeling within the conservatory.
In one of the attached greenhouses, a family of cacti lives together. One cactus stands out from the rest of them: the Christmas Cactus. Pink flowers dangle off of the green spiky leaves and underneath the foliage a sign reads "Christmas Cactus, Alumbergera Bridgesii, Propagated in 1906." Over 100 years old, the Christmas Cactus is the oldest plant within the conservatory. "A lot of people like seeing a lot of mature cactus and succulents, the aloes," said gardener Kevin Kilgore.
By just walking through the entire conservatory, you get to see plants from all six continents. Each plant has a tag that tells you the name of plant as well as where it is from. The names of the plants vary from English Ivy to Chin Cactus and span from Mexico to Vietnam.
Kilgore thinks the conservatory is interesting because of "… the fact that it's over 100 years old now and that it does have such a diverse variety; I mean there are tropicals and cactus and annuals and trees, it's really amazing."
The Gaiser Conservatory is open year round except for Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years and Martin Luther King Jr. Day; and the admission is free. You don't have to leave Spokane to see the world; all you have to do is step into the Gaiser Conservatory at Manito Park and immerse yourself in the plants.

How Iron Man joined the Tourney
Tony Stark was born a mechanical genius. After his parents died, he took over his family's company Stark Industries, which manufactured weapons. Enjoying women and alcohol, Stark didn't seem to care much for the rest of the world, until he was kidnapped by terrorists using weapons of his design. They commanded him to build them a weapon with the help of Chai Xianghua. Instead of a weapon, they took their time to build something to help them escape: a suit of powered armor. Stark used this armor to break out of confinement, but Yinsen was killed during their attempt. Stark decided that using this armor, he would make up for his past sins and help the world. Over the years, Tony Stark has been constantly refining his armor to keep up to date with the times. Also, he became a founding member of the Avengers, a team of superheroes including himself, Thor, Hulk, Giant Man, and Wasp. Hulk quickly quit the group and was replaced by Captain America, who became Stark's close friend. Their friendship was put to the test during the Superhero Civil War over registering secret identities with the government, where Iron Man became the poster-child for Registration and Captain America started a resistance movement. Recently, after the government was taken control of by the villain Norman Osborn and all heroes had to work together to fight him, the heroes of the world put aside their differences and the act was repealed.

Student Works
Research/Institutional Dev.
In 2006, while at the Re:Fresh Media Art Histories conference at the Banff New Media Institute, my friend and collaborator was talking about our interest in VR worlds, and how our punk rock group in the OnLive Traveller world (The Hellfire Missile Club) hadn't taken off as well as we'd liked. He mentioned that at the time, Second Life had about 27,000 participants, and he, I and Doug Jarvis (also there at the time) wondered about starting a performance group in Second Life. I didn't like the commerce aspect of the environment, but felt that that number of tech-savvy, connected people was really compelling. jeremy had also been talking with Scott Kildall, Liz Solo, Tanya Skuce, and Penny Leong Browne about this as well.
From this, around October-November 2006, we started Second Front, partly in response to performances done by Eva and Franco Mattes, and Scott Kildall, but in my opinion, in response to Marina Abramovic' remediation of classic performance pieces in 2005 (Seven Easy Pieces), and the Mattes' declaration that they hated performance art and Second Life. The absurdity of it all was irresistable to me, the idea of taking the body out of performance, so we all started Second Front.
We Were: Jeremy Owen Turner, Scott Kildall, Liz Solo, Patrick Lichty, Tanya Skuce, Doug Jarvis, Penny Leong Browne, Gazira Babeli (2007)
About 2009, Jeremy left to start his PhD studies, and Penny and Tanya went around that time as well. The next year, we picked up Yael Gilks and Bibbe Hansen, and Gaira Babeli 'committed suicide' in 2010 - so the lineup remains:
Scott Kildall, Liz Solo, Patrick Lichty, Bibbe Hansen, Doug Jarvis, Yael Gilks (With occasional guests)
We Have done over 50+ perrformances, published two DVDs, appeared in the Performa Biennial 2009, and have an archive at SUNY Puchase.
Our main website is secondfront.org, and it represents our work to 2009. Don;t worry, we're still going.

text: Nice! Good call! I've done that before and do so every so often-i usually keep some seltzer in hand.Charlie said:Well you know I've always like my beer and other alcoholic drinks but back in late October I gave up drinking and went cold turkey until New Year's Eve... It was a wonderful decision as I feel great and lost a little bit of weight. But the best thing was that it ended a viscous cycle of having a few every evening and more on the weekend. I no longer keep alcohol in the house and have only been having one or two on the weekends. I sure hope I can keep it up!

They may have fell just short of a Memorial Cup championship, but it was a season that Nick Suzuki and Isaac Ratcliffe will remember for the rest of their lives.
Suiting up together with the London Jr. Knights during the 2014-15, they figured it would likely be their last time playing on the same team, let alone on the same line. As fate would have it, the childhood friends would reunite on the ice four years later.
With both entering their fourth season in the OHL, Suzuki started the year in Owen Sound, while Ratcliffe was named captain of the Guelph Storm. It looked like the pair would finish their junior careers as they began, facing off as division rivals.
It was something they had both accepted as they pursued their pro hockey dreams.
That is, until Ratcliffe got a call from his childhood friend in early January that changed all that. It interrupting his pre-game nap but as he remembers, it didn't bother him one bit.
"He asked what I was up to, and I just said: 'Oh, nothing much, just taking my pregame nap. What are you up to?' He told me he was on the way to Guelph; he just got traded," Ratcliffe said in an interview on Around the OHL.
"I pretty much jumped out of bed and sprinted down the street. I was so excited I was screaming into the phone," Ratcliffe said.
It didn't take long for the former linemates to find that chemistry that helped made them both first round picks in the 2015 OHL Priority Selection.
"We figured out we'd be living together, and it just brought all those memories back. I feel like right away it clicked, game one we played in Niagara together and you saw it right away."
The pair each had a goal and an assist in the game, with Suzuki capping off his Storm debut with the overtime winner.
The magic didn't stop there. They both played crucial roles to help the Storm go an a memorable run en route to an OHL championship. Suzuki had 42 points in 24 games and was named playoff MVP, while Isaac scored 15 goals and added 15 assists.
"The belief in our team in that locker room was unbelievable. If you asked me when I was 16 years old if I was going to captain the Storm to an OHL championship, I would have never believed you," said Ratcliffe.
"Doing it the way we did made it all that (much) more special."
At the OHL Awards banquet this week at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, Ratcliffe received the Mickey Renaud Captain's Trophy, while Suzuki was once again recognized as the league's Most Sportsmanlike Player, becoming the first player to win the award on three occasions.
It's not entirely uncommon for athletes to recognize their teammates when they win a league award, and that's exactly what Suzuki did.
"First of all, I'd like to thank Isaac (Ratcliffe). He took a lot of the penalty minutes for me," Suzuki said during his acceptance speech, which was met by chuckles from those in attendance.
As far as what's next, the pair sets their sights on the pros as Suzuki tries to earn a spot with the Montreal Canadiens and Ratcliffe will looks to do the same with the Philadelphia Flyers.
Looking back, though, Ratcliffe says it was the perfect way to cap off his junior career.
"We pretty much started our hockey careers together and we ended our junior hockey career together so, either way, OHL championship or not, it was just icing on the cake to say we finished it off together," he said.
Suzuki finished his OHL career with 141 goals and 328 points, while Ratcliffe tallied 124 goals and 17 points during his four years in the league.
Here is a full rundown of all the OHL award winners for the 2018-19 season:
Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (Sudbury Wolves) – Red Tilson Trophy / Most Outstanding Player and OHL Goaltender of the Year
Evan Bouchard (London Knights) – Max Kaminsky Trophy / Defenceman of the Year
Quinton Byfield (Sudbury Wolves) – Emms Family Award / Rookie of the Year
Andre Tourigny (Ottawa 67's) – Matt Leyden Trophy / Coach of the Year
Jason Robertson (Niagara IceDogs) – Eddie Powers Memorial Trophy / Top Scorer
Justin Brazeau (North Bay Battalion) – Leo Lalonde Memorial Trophy / Overage Player of the Year
Nick Suzuki (Guelph Storm) – William Hanley Memorial Trophy / Most Sportsmanlike Player
Nicholas Canade (Mississauga Steelheads) – Dan Snyder Memorial Trophy / Humanitarian of the Year
Isaac Ratcliffe (Guelph Storm) – Mickey Renaud Captain's Trophy
Thomas Harley (Mississauga Steelheads) – Bobby Smith Trophy / Scholastic Player of the Year
Sasha Chmelevski (Ottawa 67's) – Roger Neilson Memorial Award / Top Academic University Player
Mack Guzda (Owen Sound Attack) & Zack Terry (Guelph Storm) – Ivan Tennant Memorial Award / Top Academic High School Player
Shane Wright (Kingston Frontenacs) – Jack Ferguson Award / First overall pick in OHL Priority Selection

Title: A List of Cages
Author: Robin Roe
Published: January 10, 2017 by Disney-Hyperion
Format: Digital ARC
Genre: Contemporary, Young Adult
Reading Period: January 25, 2017
Rating: ★★★★☆
When Adam Blake lands the best elective ever in his senior year, serving as an aide to the school psychologist, he thinks he's got it made. Sure, it means a lot of sitting around, which isn't easy for a guy with ADHD, but he can't complain, since he gets to spend the period texting all his friends. Then the doctor asks him to track down the troubled freshman who keeps dodging her, and Adam discovers that the boy is Julian—the foster brother he hasn't seen in five years.
Adam is ecstatic to be reunited. At first, Julian seems like the boy he once knew. He's still kindhearted. He still writes stories and loves picture books meant for little kids. But as they spend more time together, Adam realizes that Julian is keeping secrets, like where he hides during the middle of the day, and what's really going on inside his house. Adam is determined to help him, but his involvement could cost both boys their lives…
Thank you NetGalley and Disney-Hyperion for a free digital copy of this book.
"It's not okay to hurt people. Even if you're unhappy."
I like Adam's personality. He has bright and comforting personality. He's kind and lovable.
Russel is mean, cruel and full of hate. I'm angry how he treated Julian. Though I understand why he's like that.
Julian is too innocent and clueless at times. He was brainwash by Russel's lies. It tears my heart every time he was "punished" by Russel without doing anything "wrong".
I like this book because it showed the perspective of a child with ADHD and a child who has dyslexia and a victim of domestic abuse. The part I didn't like in this book is Julian's mother's list in spiral notebook. It was like a big deal but at the end it is nothing and turned out just a list and because of that Julian was hurt and disappointed. I like the end though, Julian is happy and loved.

Want to shed that post pregnancy weight, but don't have time. When the baby arrives the initial months are very hectic with a constant cycle of feeding and diaper changing; and of course very less time for a work out.
Trust me losing baby weight is not all that difficult. When I had my little one I had gained more than the required weight. Everybody had told me that I would not be able to get rid of it. But that has not been the case with me and I did turn from flab to fit.
Post six weeks of the postpartum period (time needed to recover) you can start preparing your body to lose weight. Of course dieting is not the solution as it might affect the milk supply (in case you are a breastfeeding mom). But doing it in the correct manner is the best for your body as well as you.
Just sharing a few tips which could be useful for you to shed that flab:
- Breastfeeding is the key to a quick weight loss. Breastfeeding helps the uterus to shrink back to size as it releases hormone oxytocin. It helps to burn up to 800 calories a day.
- Hydrate yourself well as it flushes out all the toxins from your body. Avoid dehydration by drinking minimum eight glasses of water daily. Dehydration is the last thing you want to get as it hampers the metabolism rate and slows the weight loss. Also, drinking water keeps you full leaving fewer options for the cravings.
- De-stress yourself as it keeps you away from unwanted munching. In stressful conditions our bodies crave for starchy food and carbohydrates. So to play safe just snack on a healthy snack like fruit or vitamin enriched foods instead. Also, it is important to sleep as in a sleep deprived body it is difficult to lose weight due to a slow metabolic rate.
- Load on a fiber rich diet as these keep you fuller for a longer time. Also, these lead to dehydration thus increasing water intake.
- Eat small meals with healthy snacks in between rather than gorging on three large meals.
- Exercise along with a healthy diet ensures that you lose fat instead of muscle. Strap up your baby in the stroller and walk around. Both you and your baby will enjoy this walk.
- Play with your baby; you can do baby press-ups, or push ups with your baby around. Also, you can place your baby on the feet as if rocking her.
In addition to the tips mentioned you can also try mini work-outs all through the day. These could last for 5 or ten or fifteen minutes, depending on the time you can spare.
Also, you can watch this video, on how to lose pregnancy weight using home exercises.
