In The Grapes of Wrath a hard-bitten Oklahoma family heads for California to escape the Dust Bowl and the Depression. When they get there, times are still tough.
On Tuesday California voters rejected a revenue initiative designed to save the state's finances. The resulting budget crisis could lead to insolvency. Since the state doesn't have the ability to print money, they can't fake their way out of this mess.
One option is to go to Uncle Sam for a bail-out. The political calculus is simple: rescue a critical, reliable constituency and cement the relationship, as the administration seems to be doing in Detroit. But the implications are huge. Once one municipal issuer is supported, there's a strong indirect guarantee to every governor, mayor, and school board. If one overspending locality is saved, how can the Feds say no to anyone?
The straightforward path after that is to explicitly guarantee the debt of every municipal issuer in exchange for strict controls on how the money is spent. And sic transit Federalism and the Constitution. As a proud "Live Free or Die" resident, I hope it doesn't come to that.

Archaeology Museum
Triq Bieb l-Imdina, Cittadella, Victoria; tel: (+356) 21 556144; http://www.heritagemalta.org
Monday to Sunday: 9.00-17.00, last admission: 16.30; closed on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day and Good Friday.
Joint admission tickets to all Heritage Malta museums (Folklore, Archaeology, Natural History museums and Old Prisons) in the Ċittadella may be purchased at any of the sites. Regular ticket (18 - 59 years): €8.00; subsidised ticket: 12-17 years, Senior Citizens (60+), Students: €5.00; children (6 -11 years): €4.00; children younger than 5 years of age may visit at no charge.
Casa Bondi, a former townhall which today houses the Museum of Archaeology - was allowed to deteriorate until it was restored to its former glory in 1937 on the initiative of Sir Harry Luke, Lieutenant Governor of Malta. The Museum was inaugurated in May 1960.
The room on the right of the entrance hall is the first of three that contain artifacts from the prehistory of Gozo, and includes a collection of rudimentary stone implements. On display in the next room is a miniature model of the Ġgantija temples and contemporary pottery. Some megaliths that were removed from the Ġgantija site in order to protect them from erosion are on displayed in the next room.
The room at the top of the stairs, to left comprises a collection of items recovered from shipwreck sites and includes a sizable collection of amphorae and other pottery, and anchors or parts thereof.
In front of the stairs is a large hall containing Roman and Punic artifacts. Notably, there are the skeletal remains of a man discovered on Comino, seemingly buried in haste, covered by two halves of an amphora split along its main axis. There are also various receptacles – some in the form of glass containers, others made of limestone – for human remains.
Adjoining this hall are two smaller rooms containing more artifacts from prehistoric Gozo, including stick figures dug up at the Xagħra Stone Circle, and sculptures of human heads from the Ġgantija temples.
Back to the ground floor, prior to your exit you will see a collection of exhibits from mediaeval Gozo, famously including Meymuna's tombstone, intricately adorned with Arabic Khufic script.There are other Christian tombstones from the former site of a cemetery in Victoria and reliefs of Christian saints, possibly Saints Peter and Paul.

This blog is dead !
You may have noticed that this blog is dead. Although it may not be definitive, my interest is for the moment attracted elsewhere... However the archives are still here and provide many hours of reading on various topics. A simple way to start is to consult the "best of" which provides a quick summary and list the articles in the right order... Good reading !

И кто сделает вам зло, если вы будете ревнителями доброго? (1-e Петра 3:13 Russian)
І хто заподіє вам зле, коли будете ви оборонцями доброго? (1 Петрово 3:13 Ukrainian)
¿Y quién es aquel que os podrá dañar, si vosotros seguís el bien? (1 Pedro 3:13 Spanish)
Most Kind and Merciful God, our Dear Father in Heaven ~ Thank you for the sparkling gift of life on this new day that arrives with wonderful blessings from your providence. Give us courage so that when persecution comes we will be prepared to endure since we know how Christ suffered and yet He arose triumphantly from the grave. Help us to find great satisfaction in this life by enthusiastically pursuing what is good. We pray In the precious name of Jesus, Amen.
Photo 1: One of our regular guests recently is Nadya who is the grandmother of Zhenya.
Photo 2: Galina was helping Zhenya to stamp some books that our brother Nikolay wants to use in the prison ministry that he works with in cooperation with the Obolon Church of Christ in Kiev.
Photo 3: Zhenya was in our worship services and also during our time of fellowship. His brother Dima came to see us as we were about to leave. We hope to get to know both of these boys better and begin a Bible class with them. They came with their grandmother Nadya. After the worship service and time of fellowship and stimulating discussion on various needs that exists in the very poor prison system, we walked back to town on the very slippery roads. We stopped at one of our favorite little neighborhood stores to buy some supplies since it was Galina's first day to venture out in a few days. We were doing pretty well until we came to the center of town, and had our first fall on the ice. We were crossing a street that was very icy, and we just got in a little too much of a hurry. We both went down together and sort of cushioned each other so we didn't suffer any serious bruises. "Take heed lest ye fall". One nice young boy and his mother quickly came to our aid and helped us get up and regain our confidence. Today we have three people scheduled to study English with us using the WEI lessons and the Bible. We always look forward to this and hope that it will help them grow in their understanding of the Bible and faith in Christ.
Photo 4: Yesterday we had 9 people present for our morning worship. Stepan and Ludmila like to sit downstairs near the entrance to the Palace of Culture where the church meets. This way they can get an eye on who is coming into the building and possibly have a chance to invite someone to our worship services.

Macroglossa, an Italian search engine based on image comparison, is launching the alpha version of its "Engine Comparer Technology", theoretically pushing the limits of search by working solely on visual recognition. But, right now, it's only theoretically.
How it is supposed to work: take a picture you can't really make out the content of. Upload it to the website http://www.macroglossa.com and launch your search. It should tell you what it is. Simples.
This technology has several advantages. First, it allows users to pull results from collections of visual content without using tags for search. Of course, this goes with the current burgeoning trend of paid searches without keywords. Second, the visuals can be crowdsourced. Just imagine the endless possibilities.
So far, the company said it is slated to release a faster and more comprehensive version at the end of April (the only category working today is "animals"), with plans for an iPhone app "within the first week of June".
Sounds cool ? Read on.
Yes, visual recognition is currently the ultimate level in robotics as it makes us think the computer or device has a conscience – although it clearly does not. Look at ASIMO (for "Advanced Step in Innovative MObility"), for example, the Japanese humanoid robot. ASIMO has spatial, sound, kinetic and – yet limited – visual recognition capacity, being able to "stock" only ten faces. Together with the help of a little memory boost, a technology like Macroglossa's would enable the robot seem almost human — if not for its astronaut like gait and overall look –, with a whole library of visuals at its disposal.
The applications of this image recognition search could be amazing. Beyond spotting and naming animals / buildings / places you snapped during your last holidays, the implications in terms of defence, intelligence and security also raise serious privacy issues. It could spark another round of criticism and scepticism on the part of official authorities, just like it did with Google Buzz and Street View (Canada, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain and the UK have addressed an open letter to Google to that effect).
Time for a test drive.
Curious to see how it works, I fed the search engine first with the picture of the fail whale. Entered the captcha words. Launched the search. It failed. The fail whale is a cartoon, so I guess it does not qualify.
Then I tried the picture of a humming bird. It failed. Again. The error message was telling me that the format was not jpeg although it was — .jpg, in fact. More annoyingly, it also tells me to "use the browser back button to return to the form" and do another search. Second fail in a row: poor usability.
Finally, I used a puppy dog picture and it did function… after a long wait of just under five minutes. The results were 'amazing': I was given a whole list of pictures of animals, ranging from birds to bears, tigers, spiders, kangaroos, butterflies or monkeys with no apparent link. Again, great disappointment.
Here's a screen shot:
Back in 2009, IBM was already working on its SAPIR, Search in Audio-Visual Content Using Peer-to-peer Information Retrieval, system. This other visual recognition search technology allows users to upload images and match them to similar ones. To the difference of Macroglossa, IBM's system analyzes everything from digital photographs, to sound files to video that it automatically indexes and ranks for retrieval.
More recently, Cortexica, a London-based bio-inspired image recognition business, announced yesterday at GeeknRolla that it has gone live with its Wine Findr iPhone app. Wine Findr is a visual search software that enables users to snap a bottle of wine and get price comparatives from different retailers, as well as other information related to the wine.
Based on research on the "human visual cortex", the system's algorithms and computer models can accurately mimick human visual recognition. This technology takes the challenge further by integrating the image search to mobile devices and by indexing 200 million frames of video per day. Cortexica is notably offering that capability on a commercial basis to media monitoring agencies.
So in the end, although the technology has great potential going forward, Macroglossa in itself is a disappointing project with much less to offer than both its early and current competitors as it solely focuses on still imagery with the technology still not up to par on top of poor usability.
But you never know, it may be worth following. As the company said, "all future updates and improvements to the engine will be made available on our Twitter Channel: http://www.twitter.com/macroglossa."
You know where to find them.

PARAMUS, N.J. — Like many of her students, Paramus dance teacher Claudine Ranieri had never been to prom.
It was 2013 and the Glen Rock mom was approached by one of the students, who had special needs, and needed to learn to dance.
Without hesitation, Ranieri established a dance class, just for students with special needs, and the culminating moment was when she joined them on the dance floor at prom.
Ranieri kept the program going but this month, she is expanding it into the district's multidisciplinary program for local students with special needs,
Launched by district speech and language specialist Barbara Vene-Anderson, the program allows children to experience a wide range of activities, including yoga, gymnastics, basketball, dance, art, music and pet therapies.
And Ranieri is hoping her discipline will establish more breakthroughs — on and off the dance floor.
"The main thing you really start to see is a universal language that everyone can comprehend," said Ranieri, who started the PHS Dance Deprtment in 2008.
"I see students' ability to recall information, follow direction, retain information — and the coordination skills develop."
The multi-sensory environment stimulates different areas of the brain, allowing the student to access pieces of information or events they otherwise might not have been able to, Ranieri explained.
It helps them connect to their emotions, especially working in a circle, which encourages eye contact.
One student once told Ranieri: "dance is a happy moment when I can touch the music."
"Every kid I've encountered makes a connection to it," Ranieri said. "It has a universal camaraderie."

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition
Finally. The BEGINNING.
If you've been following Tomb Raider since it's first arrival in 1996, you've witnessed Lara's transformation from a pixelated buxom action-hero into an incredibly realistic and inspiringly capable young woman.
This is Lara Croft's origin story. It is the traumatic event that shaped her into the intelligent ass-kicking problem-solving heroine we all have grown to know and love. A perfect mixture of storytelling, puzzle-solving, and seamlessly integrated combat, Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is a pleasant departure from the general feel of previous Tomb Raider games in nearly every aspect of gameplay.
I began gameplay on the PS3 and then upon receiving a PS4 for my birthday (thank you, Dr. T and DielectricUnion) I emphatically upgraded to the Definitive Edition. To my surprise, the graphics actually were substantially better on the PS4 and I found myself even moreso entranced by the game. As an additional testament to how freaking good the graphics are, I tested it out on a couple non-gamer friends to see if their attention spans would hold out or give up under the pressure of actually having to do something to move the storyline forward. One delightful non-gamer friend, we'll call her Mighty Mouse, who is the epitome of girly girl, went so far as to scream "Ewww!" as she attempted to navigate through the dirty cavern waters past the bloody hanging corpses in the first portion of the game. It freaked her out. GREAT sign.
Shipwrecked. Hunting, foraging. Surviving. Conquering the "impossible". Hand-to-hand combat, to using/upgrading a multitude of weapons, and the game leads you through it all beautifully. It didn't seem to "overteach" to the point of being aggravating for seasoned gamers, yet I witnessed total noobs getting into the flow of the game without being too overwhelmed. One of the game's helpful features (for when you could either use a hint or are feeling particularly lazy) is the Survival Instincts option. It definitely aided in keeping the game moving, and instead of feeling frustrated at certain points, I avoided Gamer's Rage and continuously enjoyed figuring out the next steps. Personally, I like to be challenged while still being able to enjoy the story (as opposed to wanting to chuck the damn wireless controller out the window every hour or so). So this worked out swimmingly for me.
I've heard a few minor complaints about how Lara's in-game transition from "confused and afraid" to "I will f*cking kill this bastard" is too abrupt. But anyone who has ever been in a life-or-death situation knows that the "in-the-moment" choice is either to survive or die. You do what you must, and even though moral conflict will creep into your brain to remind you that you still have a conscience, if you spend too much time deciding on whether or not to take out an enemy who is trying to KILL you, it's "game over". And as we all know, Lara Croft goes on to solve many mysteries of the known and unknown world. To have her meandering on and on and on about whether or not she's making the right choice in surviving would have been pointless, so in my opinion, they handled this part of the story adequately.
All-in-all, this is a great game. I don't regret one second of playing it and I'll likely play it through again. Why did I only give it a 9? Well, the multiplayer. I don't personally GAF about the multiplayer, but it still exists and doesn't remotely capture the magic of the single player. The campaign and the post-story exploration is fantastic enough that the multiplayer comes off as an extra pinky finger on an otherwise strong hand. Neat to look at, but pretty freakin' useless.
Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is visually stunning, "can't-put-the-controller-down" addictive, well-written, and dangerously fun. Thank you, Crystal Dynamics, for not screwing up Tomb Raider.
– Emily Rose Morrison

Deciding what constitutes the best family car in the modern age is something that causes a surprising amount of heated debate.
Of course, a few factors are beyond dispute. All parents would agree that safety is absolutely paramount.
Then there's the matter of space. The amount of internal space and luggage space required will depend on the size of the family, the number of occasions you need to take wider family members such as grandparents on trips and the likelihood your children want to bring along their friends for the ride.
All are important considerations in deciding on the number of seats you'll need and just how important luggage space sis for you.
Many families opt for the five-plus-two car versions – whereby the car is a standard five-seater with two occasional pop-up seats in the boot space for the relatively rare occasions when six or seven seats are required.
The Honda FR-V is a relative rarity in the modern age having, as it does, three seats in the front making it an ideal choice for a family of four which has the occasional need for two additional seats.
For bigger families still, the MPV is often the only realistic option. Modern safety and seating requirements mean that parents the world over have become expert mini-bus drivers, steering their MPVs through small streets crowded with traffic – and usually built for a previous age of smaller vehicles.
For some families, performance, prestige, luxury and gadgets are all-important. An increasing number of car manufacturers now incorporate in-car entertainment systems as standard to improve those seemingly endless "are we nearly there yet?" journeys.
As for the kids, well such gadgets and getting one up on their peers are perhaps more important considerations for family cars than those of their parents!

No Sim Triple Crown, But There Will Be A Sim Triple Crown Trifecta Saturday in the New Yorker
Just a mere five weeks ago, all eyes were on Kentucky as 20 colts lined up in the gates to take their shot at a six-million-dollar purse and a chance at sim racing stardom. Godbless This Mess sat well off the pace early as he was behind eleven other horses until about the halfway point when he started to work on making his comeback. He ended up winning by a little over two lengths to take the first leg of the sim Triple Crown. Two weeks and a trip to Maryland later, Godbless This Mess would find himself struggling to make the same comeback that he did in Kentucky and his bid for a sim Triple Crown would come up 2 lengths short of 15/1 shot El Malquerido who sat near the front and really never looked at the back end of Godbless This Mess through the entire race. El Maiquerido came into the race as the 2nd longshot behind 5th place finisher Den Not Don who came in at 18/1. That then leads us here to New York where, instead of a sim Triple Crown, we will have a sim trifecta as neither Godbless This Mess or El Maiquerido are entered into this weekend's race. 14 horses and 14 trainers will look at taking their portion of this year's sim Triple Crown as we go a mile and a half on the fast dirt this weekend. The field looks very competitive with the longest shot being 15/1 and the favorite sitting at just 7/1. With no odds on favorite separating themselves from the rest of the field, it will be very interesting to see who ends up taking the race today. Before we get to the race however, we must meet our field. So without further delay, I present to you the field for the 2018 New Yorker.
Name Owner Sire Odds
(1) Royale Bushwhacker canyongait Awesome Again 10/1
This 3-year-old gelding doesn't have a win outside of allowance competition. However, in three graded starts, he has yet to fail to hit the board. This raises more questions than answers for many as he remains in New York after the Wooden Indian Derby Lock Prep. His last race was two months ago right here in New York where he failed to take the Derby prep race coming up just short. After starting his career rough, with a 4th place finish, he managed a 2nd place finish in a maiden race before taking his third race with a nice 89 speed figure as a 2-year-old. He would go on to win a conditioned allowance race in his last start as a two-year-old before making the jump to the Graded ranks three races back. In his first ever Graded III race, he managed to sit near the back of the pack before coming up just 3 lengths short in the 3rd place finish. He would follow that up with another 3rd place finish in the Grade II Moises Alou Cap. He would, as mentioned before, again come in 3rd in his first ever Grade I attempt last time out. Speeds have been on a steady increase with the increase in distance and he ran his best ever speed figure of 105 last time out. Will the increase in distance finally give him the ground he is looking for to find the winners circle? Will the jump in distance be too much to handle? There are more questions than answers coming out of his stable this week. Can he give a firm answer to those questions?
(2) Zap It Out basspatrol Ghostzapper 7/1
The three-year-old colt Zap It Out will make his first start since the Bluegrass Derby just a mere month ago. After taking the Florida Derby to secure his spot in Kentucky back in March, this boy just didn't have enough in the tank as he managed just a 7th place finish in the 20 horse Bluegrass Derby last time out. It was probably for this reason that he skipped the Middle Jewel and headed right for the Belmont this weekend. After a promising start in a maiden race back in July of 2017, he failed to hit the board in two straight listed stakes races. Hoping to raise his confidence, a conditioned allowance was attempted as his last race as a two-year-old and it would prove to start a three race win streak that included a listed stakes and the aforementioned Florida Derby Grade I win. His career best speed figure of 109 came on a good track back in the Florida Derby where he ran a 109 speed figure. The jump in distance didn't help the speed figure for the Bluegrass Derby as he managed just a 101 speed at the 10-furlong distance. The big question with him will be with the jump once again in distance. He will be going nearly a half mile more than his career best speed figure distance. Will the jump in distance lead once again to a middle of the pack finish, or were there just too many horses in the way of a comeback in Kentucky? That question will be answered this weekend in New York.
(3) Minimal Sin ravenclaw Sinister Minister 15/1
The three spot Saturday belongs to a 3-year-old colt out of Sinister Minister. He will be looking to hit the board for the first time as a three-year-old when he steps foot on the track this weekend in New York. After a promising career start as a two-year-old garnered him five wins in eight tries, he managed just a 9th place finish in the Breeder's Bowl Juvenile back in November of last year. He would take a four month break from racing in hopes that the speeds and his racing form would increase. The rest did provide a bump in speed figures as he has run his best two speed figures the last two races, however, it hasn't led to a ton of success on the track where he has missed the board in two straight Grade I tries. That shouldn't shake the confidence of this colt however as he has seven of his eleven races against Graded company and that includes a Grade I and Grade II win along with a 3rd place finish in the Grade III Manor of Bashford back in July of last year. It has been nearly ten months since this colt has seen the winners circle. He certainly has the ability to take the win here in New York this weekend. Once again, this will be the longest distance for him in his career, though the jump to 10 furlongs last time out led to his first career speed figure over 100. The form has been a little off in the past few races. Can he regain that form that he had as a two-year-old? If so, he could do damage with this field as he will look to sit well back early before coming on strong late.
(4) The Checkered atw14 Bradester 10/1
The three-year-old colt who comes from a Grade I mother will look to add another Grade I winner to the family when he takes the track this Saturday. After four straight allowance races to start his career in which he managed one win and three third place finishes, this boy finally made the jump into the stakes ranks in November of last year. He hasn't left them since then and he also managed a Grade III win in his first race as a three-year-old earlier this year. While his last two races haven't been up to par, he will look to shake off the fact that he has failed to hit the board in each of his last two races after managing to hit the board in eight straight races to start his career. An increase in speed figures have come with increasing distance and if that can continue this weekend, he should have no problem keeping up with the field. However, one problem that we are seeing early is that there are a lot of late runners. Not a single horse we have talked about so far has wanted to run with the lead and he is no different. Will he get caught up in the fact that there will be a lot of runners late? It is going to be a tough field for him to take, but he should be right there with everyone else as we get ready to turn for home this Saturday in New York.
(5) The Art of Failure dumptrump Lord Nelson 10/1
Coming out of the 5 slot today will be the three-year-old colt out of Lord Nelson. His Graded results to date have been more like an EKG which has to be causing his trainers a heart attack. Will the race this weekend be more of a top or bottom on that EKG? After three straight 2nd or 3rd place finishes to start his career, The Art of Failure finally managed to take a maiden race back in August of last year. He then managed to win his second in a row in a conditioned allowance race, and that was all that his trainers needed to see from him to know it was time to jump him up into the stakes ranks. His first attempt didn't go quite as planned as he managed just a 9th place finish at the end of September. After a slight increase in distance and a 3rd place finish a month later, he took a two month break from racing. With that two-month break, he also made a jump into the route distance of racing and it made all the distance as he ran a career best 100 speed figure and took home a listed stakes in his last race as a two-year-old. It was decided then that his next race would be the Grade 1 Vermont is 4 Lovers in February of this year. After coming out of the gate hot, this boy lost steam and managed just an 8th place finish. A month later he tried the 9-furlong distance again, this time in the Grade II Land's End where to nearly pulled off a win. That bid for the first graded win came up just short as he finished 2 and ¼ lengths behind the leader for a 2nd place finish. After a 9th place finish in the Grade I Arkansas Juvenile Derby Lock Prep race, he made the jump back down in graded company his last time out where again it was a 9th place finish. He will have his work cut out for him today, but he is making another big jump in distance and we know how that turned out early in his career.
(6) Ion My Way drsafbreds Var 10/1
Not only has Ion My Way been involved in the Graded ranks before, he actually has more Grade I races under his belt than other races in his career. The competition that he has faced might bode well for him today, but the struggle is going to be beating that competition which hasn't been his strong suit in about half a year. The career started with a quick win in a maiden race and 2nd place finish in an open allowance race. From there it was off to the graded ranks where he hasn't left since May of last year! This guy won his first ever Graded try and followed that up with a solid 2nd place finish in his next race, another Grade III. While he has had mixed results since then, every race he has ran since September of last year has been against Grade I competition and therefore he is certainly battle tested. After a 6th place finish in his first every Grade I attempt, the three-year-old son of Var rattled off two in a row in the Grade I Sparkling Wine Stakes and the Breeders' Bowl Juvenile. After those two wins, it was a 3 month break for him and since then he hasn't really regained the form that he left off at. In the four Grade I races since his Breeders Bowl win, he has managed just one 5th place finish, two 7th place finishes, and one 8th place finish. While he did run a career best 102 speed figure in the California Derby Prep race, he followed that up with a 100 sped figure the next time out in the Bluegrass Derby. He will be the first horse that we have met today that has run in both the Bluegrass Derby and the Middle Jewel. How is he going to hold up with his 3rd race in nearly a months' time? Will he be able to regain his form from his two-year-old campaign with minimal rest, or will it be another rough ride in the New Yorker? The chance is there and he is certainly battle tested. The question remains though, is he too battle tested?
(7) Tap Tap Tapping ramo Tapit 8/1
Skipping the Bluegrass Derby can sometimes pay off for those that are looking to make a strong showing in the Middle Jewel. The three-year-old colt out of Tapit did just that last race after a decent showing in the Sand Castle Derby Prep race. Two races back he managed a career 2nd best 101 speed figure of 101 as he came up short in the prep race. The trainers opted to skip the loaded Bluegrass Derby field in hopes that a rest would give way to a win come the Middle Jewel Stakes. However, that just didn't work out as he managed just a 6th place finish in the Middle Jewel last time out. He is certainly battle tested much like the rest of the field however as he has managed to hit the board in four out of nine career races in Graded company. After two quick wins to start his career in a maiden race along with a conditioned allowance race, he made the jump to stakes territory where he did manage a 2nd place finish in his first listed stakes try. He followed that up with a 4th place finish in the Grade II Vermont BB Juvenile and a 2nd place finish in the Grade II Hoserhead Juvenile. A month later he made the jump up into the Grade I stakes territory when he took on a field of 13 in the Hopeless Stakes. A 4th place finish followed his start there along with another 4th place finish in the Charcoal Breeder's Cup Grade III race. He then managed to hit the board for the second time in Graded company when he finished third the the Club Stakes before picking up his first ever Graded win in the It's a Lot Like Christmas Grade III race. With most of the first half of the field looking to make the trip for way back, look for Tap Tap Tapping to jump straight out towards the front. This may not be a bad place to be with so many late challengers, he might not get pushed a ton early. Time will tell, but running his race might not be a terrible thing Saturday and the odds makers look to agree.
(8) Den Not Don graywolf47 Den's Legacy 14/1
As we begin the 2nd half of our countdown, we come across the first of two runners to have the "CLM" tag applied to their name. Some trainer's favorite stories are those horses that drastically improved from their early campaign and this young colt looks to be just that. After a not too shabby 4th place finish in his first ever race, this three-year-old hit the claiming ranks running in three straight claiming races. The last of these claiming races was actually for a $2,500 tag back in June of last year. Yet no one claimed him. Now many are asking why they didn't take the chance just a year ago in the $2,500 claimer that eventually produced a Grade II winner and is looking to win one of the three Triple Crown races this year. Trainers and owners alike thought they could get more out of this guy and he was eventually entered into an open allowance where he managed just a 6th place finish though speeds did improve. From there he finished 2nd and 1st in two straight conditioned allowance races. After giving it a go in a Grade II The Ransom back in November of last year where he managed a 5h place finish in a 14 horse field, he moved back to the conditioned allowance level where he finished fourth in an NW4L race. Deciding to give the stakes level one more try, the trainer entered him into a listed stakes at 10.5 furlongs and he ended up besting the field by 2 lengths to win his first ever stakes race. He wasn't done there however as his next race he followed his win up with another win. This time however it was a Grade II win and his career best speed figure of 102 was earned in Louisiana that day as well. While racing since that day hasn't been great for him, it's always a fun time when a claimer turns into a Graded winner. That brings us to today. After a really rough Wooden Indian two races back in a Derby Prep race where he managed just an 85 speed figure, he tried again in the Middle Jewel where he ran much better finishing with a 100 speed figure in a 5th place finish. He looks to have just run out of ground a few weeks ago and the step up in distance might be just what the doctor ordered to turn this former claimer into the ever so rare Grade I winner.
(9) Actuary Ted march2nd Deep Impact 14/1
One of the lesser tested horses in today's race will be making his first ever Grade I start as he looks to best the rest of the field in race 1 of his Grade I career. While the odds certainly are not in his favor according to the odds board, the distance just might be what this guy needed to get over the hump. After two quick wins early in his career in a maiden and conditioned allowance race, he did pretty rough in his next two starts which were both listed stakes races. It was back down into the allowance ranks from there as he was still not managing to hit the board in two straight tries. One common theme emerged and that was that he was just running out of ground late in making some comebacks. That is why he made a 2 furlong jump five races back in a listed stakes where he managed a first place finish in the Franco Invasion Dirt Route. From there, he has really started to find his form and the increase in distance has certainly helped. His career best speed figure of 101 came last time out at 10.5 furlongs where he managed a 3rd place finish in the Teddys Slew Dirt Route in Florida. His previous race also was a success where he won his second listed stakes, this time at 10.5 furlongs, in the Gold Project Dirt Special. That now leads us to Saturday where he will again make a substantial jump in distance in hopes that he can mount the late comeback that he has become accustomed to. He has just two Graded races under his belt in his career and finished 12th and 5th in those respectively. So while not as battle tested as many others in this field, he does have the distance increases working in his favor. He too will look to sit somewhere mid to end of the pack before making a late push. While there will be a lot of others right there with him, will the others be able to handle the increase in distance like he has? Though a question still remains whether he too will be able to handle the increase in distance.
(10) Crackerjack Ride tfon21 Ride On Curlin 10/1
We reach double digits and the 10th spot provides a doozy in the other horse with a "CLM" tag. $2,500 was paid in a claim on May of 2017 when this guy was placed in a maiden claimer. After winning that maiden claimer, the new owner managed to get the colt to rip off two straight allowance wins before making the first attempt at the Graded Ranks. While he managed just a 5th place finish in the Grade II Midsoil Stake, it didn't stop the run of three wins in four races as he followed it up with another win in open allowance company this time. It was back to the stakes ranks where he has been for the last 10 races. He has managed to finish in the top three of all listed stakes since then except one where he finished fourth at 5.5 furlongs. He has been entered in two Grade I races in his career, and he did net a 2nd place finish in the Vermont is 4 Lovers back in February of this year. His Derby Prep race didn't go quite as planned two races back in California where he managed just a 7th place finish and never really threatened. From there he made a 1.5-furlong jump to a 10.5 furlong listed stakes race and managed a third place finish where he just got ran past late. While it was just a 95 speed figure, he was in the race for quite some time. So he will again today make the jump in distance in hopes that a better outcome is to be had. While the speed figures aren't outstanding, his two best speeds have been in both of his Grade I tries where his career best of 104 came four races back. Can the claim to fame pick up his first graded win? Either way, what a $2,500 claim he was!
(11) Musicfor Thefallen blankpoin6 Maclean's Music 8/1
Looking for their first win outside above allowance company, we have Musicfor Thefallen. The three-year-old colt started his career on fire winning two of his first three races in maiden and allowance company. From there he made the jump right into Grade I competition where he did manage a 3rd place finish in just his 4th career race. He didn't fare as well in the Breeder's Bowl Juvenile where he finished 5th. Another 3rd place finish followed in the Grade I Movieland Futurity back in December of last year. He finished his two-year-old campaign without a Graded win but with two of three Grade I shows. His career best speed figure came two races back in his Derby Prep race in the California Derby where he ran a solid 2nd place finish with a speed figure of 105. He didn't fare as well in the Bluegrass Derby where he finished 9th and never really challenged after starting the race well back in 18th place. The biggest thing for this colt will be to sit just far enough off the pace to make a decent comeback. If he sit's too far back, he is going to struggle to catch back up to the leader. We have seen this come into play every time in his last three races. While he has run three straight races with speed figures of 100+, he will be running nearly a half mile more than he did when he ran his career best speed figure of 105. Mom was a Grade I winner. Will her young colt match her career production this Saturday?
(12) Ghostly Exaggerate dkstables1 Exaggerator 11/1
One of the more lightly raced colts comes into this race off of a two-month rest. His career started with two second place finishes before he broke the maiden in his third career race in August of last year. He followed that up with a win in a conditioned allowance race and made the jump into the Graded ranks. While his first attempt didn't go great, he did manage a 5th place finish in a 14 horse field. He would follow that up with a solid performance in the Legoland Grade III in what would become his first and only graded win. He then made the trek to Florida for the Grade II Fountain of Ute where he ran 3rd coming from mid-pack. That set him up for a Derby Lock Prep race in the Florida Derby where he sat 6th for the entire race on the good dirt. While it wasn't the result that they wanted, the three-year-old colt out of Exaggerator ran a career best 102 speed figure in his last race before the two-month layoff. We have seen multiple horses skip either the first or second leg of the Triple crown, but very rarely will one skip both the first and second leg. While he is lightly raced, he is also pretty battle tested in his last three races and his best speed figure has come against the best competition. Will the three-furlong jump in distance provide what this horse needs to break through?
(13) Milton The Monster croissant1 Any Given Saturday 10/1
Milton The Monster will be making his first attempt at a Graded race after rattling off three straight wins in his last three races. After capturing just one win in his first six races as a two-year-old, things were looking pretty down for the three-year-old colt out of Any Given Saturday. However, his three-year-old campaign started off pretty good where he ran a 2nd place race in a conditioned allowance. While he did follow that up with a 7th place finish, his run to three straight wins started his next time out where he managed to win a 14 furlong conditioned allowance for local breds. He then ran his first 100+speed figure of 104 in a conditioned allowance race back in March of this year. He would follow that up with a career best speed figure of 108 in his last race where he bested a listed stakes field in the cornfields of Nebraska. So that now takes him here to New York where speeds have been very high and wins have been plenty for races above 10 furlongs. The rarity for this one is that he wants to take the lead right away and keep it. While he did sit in second for a while in his 2nd to last race, in his three race win streak, he has managed to grab and keep the lead for the entire race twice. Look for him to take the lead once again in this one. If he can grab an early lead and not get challenged too much early, he may set himself up to best the first Grade I field that he will see.
(14) Otto Over Easy kaner12 Mineshaft 9/1
Rounding out the field today, we will have a three-year-old son of Mineshaft. After starting his career on the grass and not finding the board in a maiden race, he led start to finish in his first race on the dirt where he bested another maiden field. He would follow that up with a third place and first place finish in conditioned allowance races before making his first jump into the Graded ranks. That would result in just a 6th place finish and he would jump back down in class to best another conditioned allowance field in his second to last race as a two-year-old. He would jump back up into the Graded ranks where he would earn his first Grade II win in November of 2017 when he won the Ransom in New York. In his three races as a three-year-old, he has yet to hit the board as he has finished 2nd in a listed stakes, before taking the Equinics Derby Lock Prep with a career best speed figure of 104. He wasn't able to improve upon that speed figure in the Bluegrass Derby, but he did match it where he came up just 3 lengths short of the leader in the 20 horse field. That resulted in a third place finish and he has now had a month to rest up in hopes of taking his second Grade I race in three tries. Look for him to sit near the front of the pack on Saturday, but not take the outright lead. He should challenge late if he doesn't get passed up by the pace stalkers. He has won half of his races and hit the board in 8/10. He will look to make it six wins in eleven tries this Saturday in New York.

It is 5:15 in the morning. In the side mirror of the bus you see her approach, heavy weight yet agile in sustained jogging as she joins the group of others already waiting at the bus stop. She makes to board the bus, gasping as she pleads with the driver to let her on. She is one of six ladies returning from a cleaning job. This being one of many odd jobs she no doubt is returning or going from. The area she boards the bus from requires her to have a pre-paid pass (oyster card) or ticket. Only in her rush or perhaps in the hope of saving some coins from the meagre earnings she has just pocketed on this job, she had bargained on the sympathy of the bus driver to let her travel free. It was not to be.
This time, the driver albeit is making the last run of his shift, acquiescent in reproach affirms that she must purchase the ticket from the outside booths before he lets her proceed any further. In solidarity, the others that had been waiting ahead of her at the bus stop all make an effort to assist her in purchasing the ticket. Yet, at the same time praying silently; that the bus driver does not drive off without any of them on board.
It has happened before and the women are all very much aware of this. Drivers short on time, in their allocated shifts will not wait for you to purchase a ticket that should've been done before boarding in some parts of central London. This has been the rule for some good 5yrs but it is not well publicised by the transport authority for reasons only known to them. Worse still – if these women miss this bus, it means loss of earnings at their next job. Clock-work is what this country has taught them. Everything has to start and finish on its allocated time. It is a far cry from the lands they've flown away from. The dreams they held of a land like "heaven".
This "heaven" money does not grow on trees – this they have come to understand and accept. It is earned by making sure you work at all odd jobs going at whatever time, night or day, rain or shine, snow or wind. Jobs you do under constant fear of being picked up by immigration officers, or worse, coming across wicked persons whose aim is to cut short your life. They have learnt that not all white persons are kind, generous or eager to help freely as was the initial take.
Yes. Some have died trying to get this "heaven" money. One of the sisters's bodies was found floating in the river…At first, no one dared come to identify her. For in doing so, it would reveal their own true identities.
The other sister had died out of sheer exhaustion they thought. She'd returned from work, took a bath and went to bed. Only she never woke up. They all said in hindsight she hadn't seemed well, some even went as far as guessed she was sick with the dreaded disease. Still. It was no use.The medication required her to rest and eat properly. Only the doctors giving her the medication were not aware of her immigration status. Her irregular attendance to clinic an incovenience at worst. Her sole purpose in coming to this "heaven" had been out of trying to earn some money to put her children to school back home. She couldn't not afford the luxury of prescribed rest nor the proper food. Instead, she had scraped and saved, surviving on KFC's mainly and the discounted sandwiches at the closing hours in supermarkets. Now she was on confined rest and diet – eternally.
Money or any known assets to send back to help those left behind soon to be divided up between those that know where she kept them…otherwise to disappear in "heaven's" system.

For more than a decade, students in Julie Mosher's combined fifth and sixth grade class at Little Flower Catholic School in Rugby have been required to do a project.
The students get to choose which project they do themselves, and it can be an innovation, an experiment or a business venture. They later make presentations at an education event put on by Marketplace for Kids.
Mosher said she read about Marketplace for Kids in her first year of teaching, and that for the students it's an opportunity.
Article Photos
"It helps kids to learn, it gives them an opportunity to either build something, make something, write something, to do something that's important to them and they have a passion for and then present that to other people," said Mosher. "So it builds skills in speaking and builds skills in thinking."
After the first year of going, Mosher said she was "hooked," and stuck with it ever since.
"I was in awe of what kids can do when you give them the opportunity to do something that they have a passion for," Mosher said.
At a recent Marketplace event, Mosher received recognition. Mosher received the "Extra Mile" award for the 2017-18 school year, which recognizes projects in entrepreneurship.
Mosher has observed that entrepreneurship projects have increased since she has started Marketplace projects.
Some notable projects this year include students who made soaps and scrubs from natural ingredients, and a student who built a computer the previous year and tried to make a computer game this year.
"It was a big learning process because a lot he had to learn and teach himself," Mosher said, adding that the student's game was in the process of being finished prior to presentation.
The project process begins after students return from Christmas vacation, where Mosher and students talk about and look at problems to solve. Students are to choose a project by the end of January, although Mosher said what projects they choose may not always end up being what they present at Marketplace.
After projects have been chosen, Mosher uses questions to guide students through as they make progress.

Presentation was filled with a lot of takes, but here are a few that I noted:
General Take Aways:
– Talk as yourself, not about yourself.
– Videos get linked, photos get comments.
– People want to hear your unique point of view.
– Users comment on things that have something in it for them.
– Stay away from overly technical jargon; write simply and plainly.
– Use social proof to establish trust.
– Know your audience (lives, schedules, etc.)
Timing Take Aways:
– Effective bloggers publish early in the day (I am violating this now!)
– People share (retweet) mostly in the afternoon.
– Post early in the week for views and on weekends for comments.
– The more often you post, the more active followers you will attract.
If you have the time, look through the slides. While you will see each of the take aways, reading them in context will probably help.
To see/hear the complete presentation, make sure to check out Dan Zarrella's website.

The New King
Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud
King from 2015, Crown Prince 2012 – 2015, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defense
Salman was named as the country's new crown prince in 2012, succeeding his brother Nayef. He is also one of the seven sons born to Ibn Saud's favorite wife, Hassa bint Ahmed al-Sudairi. In 1962, he became governor of Riyadh Province and ruled the province until he became defense minister in 2011. Salman has played an increasingly prominent role in Saudi politics in recent years. He is known to favor close political and economic ties with the West. Born in 1935.
The Previous King
Abdullah bin Abdulaziz al Saud
King 2005 – 2015
Abdullah became king in 2005 after spending a decade as an effective ruler of the country during the illness of King Fahd. Abdullah pushed a program of cautious domestic reforms aimed at reconciling the kingdom's conservative social identity with the needs of a modern economy. He responded to the 2011 Arab Spring by banning protests and supporting dictatorial allies in neighboring countries.
The Rest of the Family
Below, explore details on the remaining sons and brothers in the family, organized by earliest generation to later.
King Abdulaziz ibn Saud
King 1932 – 1953
As a young man, Ibn Saud led a small band of men to recapture his family's ancient territory of Riyadh, in central Arabia, and went on to build a desert kingdom under the flag of Islamic revival. On Sept. 23, 1932, the country was named the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. By the time of his death, it stretched from the Gulf to the Red Sea and from Iraq to Yemen.
Saud bin Abdulaziz al Saud
King 1953 – 1964
Upon Abdulaziz's death in 1953, his eldest son, Saud, acceded to the throne. Some historians said of Saud that he would have made a wonderful Bedouin chief. But as the leader of a modern state, with growing oil revenue, he oversaw a disordered government that squandered its new found wealth and failed to respond to the needs of a new age.
Faisal bin Abdulaziz al Saud
King 1964 – 1975
Faisal secured the throne in 1964, after a protracted power struggle with his half brother King Saud, and turned the desert kingdom into a functioning modern state. He oversaw the rise of Saudi Arabia as a world energy powerhouse during the Arab oil embargo of the early 1970s. He was assassinated by a nephew in 1975.
Khaled bin Abdulaziz al Saud
King 1975 – 1982
Khaled became king as an elderly man with a strong sense of religious duty. He was appalled by the 1979 siege of Mecca, in which Islamic extremists seized the holy mosque and could only be forced out after a violent battle.
Fahd bin Abdulaziz al Saud
King 1982 – 2005
Fahd was the eldest of the so-called "Sudairi seven," a powerful group of seven princes born to Ibn Saud's favorite wife, Hassa bint Ahmad al-Sudairi. A leading member of the government and royal family from the 1960s onwards, Fahd modernized the kingdom's infrastructure with grand projects, but allowed Islamic conservatives greater sway over education and society. King Fahd never fully recovered from a stroke in 1995, and gave his half-brother Abdullah de facto control of the kingdom more than a decade before his death in 2005.
Sultan bin Abdulaziz al Saud
Crown Prince 2005 – 2011
Sultan was the second of the so-called "Sudairi seven," a powerful group of seven princes born to Ibn Saud's favorite wife, Hassa bint Ahmad al-Sudairi. He became the country's defense and aviation minister in 1962, a role he used to cement Saudi relations with Western countries using a string of massive arms contracts. He died in October 2011 in New York City, after six years as heir to his elder half brother, King Abdullah. According to Saudi Arabia's state news agency, Sultan was born sometime in 1928, though some experts on the Saudi monarchy believe he was actually born in 1925.
Prince Talal bin Abdulaziz al Saud
UNESCO Special Envoy for Water
Prince Talal is known as the Red Prince for his politically liberal views. He led the Free Princes movement in the 1960s, which called for the end of the absolute monarchy in Saudi Arabia and expanded civil rights, reforms that his family shot down. He is an active member of UNESCO.
Nayef bin Abdulaziz al Saud
Crown Prince 2011 – 2012
Nayef was one of the so-called "Sudairi seven," a powerful group of seven princes born to Ibn Saud's favorite wife, Hassa bint Ahmad al-Sudairi. In 1975, he was made Interior Minister. Nayef succeeded Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz al Saud as heir to the throne in October 2011. He was about 70 when he died in June 2012, although his exact birth date wasn't recorded.
Muqrin bin Abdulaziz al Saud
Crown Prince from 2015, Deputy prime minister
Muqrin was the head of the country's intelligence agencies until 2012, when he was replaced by his nephew, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, and named adviser and special envoy to King Abdullah.
In February 2013, the king named Muqrin second deputy prime minister, making him second, after Crown Prince Salman as likely successor to the throne.
Born in 1945, Muqrin is the youngest surviving member of Abdulaziz's sons.
Saud bin Faisal al Saud
Prince, Minister of Foreign Affairs
King Khalid appointed Prince Saud as foreign minister in 1975. He was born in 1940.
Khaled bin Faisal al Saud
Prince, Minister of Education
He was appointed Minister of Education in December 2013 with a mandate to reform the education system and eliminate extremism from schools. Before that he was Governor of Mecca Province, home to Islam's holiest sites.
Miteb bin Abdullah al Saud
Prince, Minister of the National Guard
Prince Miteb, a son of Abdullah, inherited from his father the leadership of the Saudi Arabian National Guard, the military force that evolved from Ibn Saud's original tribal army and later functioned as a sort of Praetorian Guard to protect the regime from possible coups.
Alwaleed bin Talal al Saud
Alwaleed owns a majority stake of Kingdom Holding Co. Alwaleed invests in banks, hotels and media firms.
Mohammed bin Fahd al Saud
Prince, Former Gov. Eastern Province
Mohammed was appointed governor of the Eastern Province in 1979, soon after a Shia rebellion there. The Eastern Province is not only home to the Shiite minority but is the center of Saudi oil production. Mohammed was replaced in January 2013 by his cousin, Saud bin Nayef.
Khaled bin Sultan al Saud
Prince, Former Deputy Minister of Defense
In April 2013, King Abdullah removed Prince Khalid as Deputy Minister of Defense, which was seen as lowering his profile in the Saudi family. Analysts pointed to Prince Khalid's perceived poor performance in a 2009 Saudi military offensive across the border in Yemen, and to questions about his role in arms deals.
Bandar bin Sultan al Saud
Prince, Secretary-General of National Security Council
Another son of late Crown Prince Sultan, Prince Bandar was popular with Western leaders as Saudi envoy to the U.S. from 1983 to 2005. He forged close relationships with both President George H.W. Bush and President George W. Bush. Former chief of general intelligence.
Saud bin Nayef al Saud
Gov. Eastern Province
Prince Saud was named governor of the oil-rich Eastern Province in January 2013. He served as ambassador to Spain from 2003 until 2011, when he returned to Riyadh to serve at the court of his late father, Crown Prince Nayef.
Mohammed bin Nayef al Saud
Deputy Crown Prince from 2015, Minister of the Interior
A son of late Crown Prince Nayef, Prince Mohammed is perhaps the best regarded of Ibn Saud's grandsons among foreign analysts of the kingdom. King Abdullah named him Interior Minister in November 2012. His deft handling of the al Qaeda bombing campaign from 2003 to 2006 eviscerated the organization inside Saudi Arabia, while his network of spies have foiled repeated attacks by the group's Yemeni wing. He was born in 1959.
Faisal bin Salman
Prince, Madinah Governor
Born in 1970. He was appointed governor of Madinah Province in January 2013.
Mohammed bin Salman
Crown Prince
Born in 1980. His father's royal court chief and special adviser. He founded a charity to empower and develop youth.
Sultan bin Salman al Saud
Secretary-General of the Saudi Commission for Tourism and Antiquities.

Having problems with your HP Pavilion dv5020us Notebook ?
How do i use an sd card on my hp pavilion dv5020us? i cant figure out how to connect the card to the laptop so i can copy files to the card.
Answers :
Hello !
Unfortunately, your laptop does not support SD Cards.
But, your laptop does support a USB flash drive, since it has 2 USB ports. The USB port is rectangular in shape. Then, you can copy your files to the flash drive.
Flash drives are inexpensive these days.
Hope this helps.
