Rescuing Animals In Need
Clancey's mother, Sita, was abandoned at local vet hospital with two kittens from her previous litter. She was already pregnant and suffering from an upper respiratory illness. Since Sita and her kittens had not been vaccinated, her older kittens were also sick and now suffer permanent tear duct damage as a result. Unfortunately, it is unknown what effect Sita's illness had on her six unborn kittens.
Clancey is physically healthy but has emotional issues. He is very bonded with his feline and canine friends but lacks the ability to trust people. This may be a result of his mother's ill health at the time he was in utero.He needs a patient, loving environment in which to thrive and blossom. He is very playful and active.

Kim Carnes
Longtime Californian Carnes, having changed labels, went to Nashville to record this album and the trip paid off. It's a subtly countrified production that represents only a slight transition from Carnes's usual pop-rock style, but the occasional harshness that has crept into her voice in the past is gone. This record jumps, it swings, it soothes, it frolics; it never grates. She and veteran Nashville producer Jimmy Bowen (it would take less space to list the people he hasn't worked with than those he has) open the record with a brief mandolin-fiddle instrumental preface, brandishing it as if it were a musical visa they needed to work in Nashville. After that, Carnes, sounding wonderfully relaxed and justifiably pleased with herself, sails through 10 generally splendid tunes. Speed of the Sound of Loneliness, a moody John Prine song that Carnes exploits affectingly, includes a pungent harmony vocal by Lyle Lovett and some sweet Cajun accordion fills by John Cascella of John Cougar Mellencamp's band. Bruce Hornsby (on accordion for Brass & Batons), harmonizers Vince Gill and Steve Wariner, and Nashville session standbys Mark O'Connor and Leland Sklar are among the supporting cast too. Carnes rocks engagingly on the Troy Seals-Frankie Miller tune Heartbreak Radio, sounds convincingly romantic on Even Stevens' Crazy in Love and has a good time even on a slightly denatured, subfunky version of the Johnny Otis classic Willie and the Hand Jive. Nashville is not exactly foreign territory for Carnes; her 1980 duet with Kenny Rogers, Don't Fall in Love with a Dreamer, was her first major hit. So this is in the nature of a homecoming, and it's a happy one. (MCA)

In 1977, the goalkeeper of the Almagro team Claudio Tamburrini is illegally kidnapped from his home, arrested by the government forces and sent blindfolded to Sere Mansion, a clandestine detention center. His acquaintance Tano, who had been tortured for a long period, had falsely accused Claudio of being a revolutionary. Along the months, Claudio is kept nude and handcuffed together with the prisoners El Gallego, El Vasco and Guillermo Fernández and submitted to all sort of humiliations and tortures, until the night they decide to escape from their imprisonment in the old mansion.

Word has gotten out about Lunchtime Concerts, the informal free performances of chamber works at the intimate reading room in Philosophy Hall on the Columbia University campus. The series, sponsored by the Miller Theater and Columbia's Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, opened on Monday afternoon at 12:30 with the exciting young violinist Jennifer Koh playing Bach's Partita No. 2 in D minor. And people started arriving up to 45 minutes before the program began to get a seat.
About 200 people eventually crowded into the room, which is perfect for chamber music. Some sat atop desks lining the walls; others stood in the back. The programs are short, in keeping with the theme of enjoying some music during your lunch break, and only one substantial work is played. It was revealing to hear this astonishing Bach partita on its own. For all its greatness, the piece can get swamped when performed alongside the works for violin and piano typically played at a recital.
This was the first of six programs Ms. Koh will play presenting all of the Bach partitas. (The series will also offer Benjamin Hochman playing the Bach piano partitas and Alisa Weilerstein playing the Bach cello suites.) Following the Lunchtime Concerts tradition, she first spoke to the audience about the piece. Bach, who was working in Weimar when he completed his three partitas in 1720, was surely influenced by the Weimar violinist Johann Paul von Westhoff, who had already published a collection of solo violin partitas.
Ms. Koh played the opening measures of the Allemande, Courant and Sarabande from a Westhoff suite, alternating the excerpts with opening measures of the corresponding movements by Bach. Westhoff's partitas fired Bach's imagination about ways to write for the violin. Bach took it from there. And how.
The Partita in D minor has a curious structure. After four dance movements, which last 12 minutes together, the work ends with the monumental Chaconne, a set of rhapsodic variations on a stately triple-meter dance theme, totaling 15 minutes.
Ms. Koh conveyed the naturalness of the phrasing in the flowing Allemande and brought Baroque zest to the Courant. The gutsy way she played the chords in the Sarabande allowed the wistful melodic line to shine. And she balanced intensity and buoyancy in the fleet Giga.Continue reading the main story
Finally, she gave a deeply expressive account of the Chaconne, dispatching the challenges with such security that you did not notice the sheer virtuosity at work. The ovation was so ardent that Ms. Koh, who had been visibly engrossed in her performance, wiped away tears.
A music review on Wednesday about the violinist Jennifer Koh's performance of Bach's Partita No. 2 in D minor, at Columbia University's Philosophy Hall, misstated the number of partitas Bach wrote for solo violin. It is three, not six. (His six works for solo violin include three sonatas along with the partitas.)

Earlier this week the rain cleared out just before sunset. I jumped in my car and came here to Riverwalk in Bradenton. I had less than thirty minutes before the colors faded so I ran around to get as many pictures as I could. This image is the first one I took.
It was twenty minutes of pure awesome. When the conditions are perfect, you have to keep moving. It's a challenge to get as many scenes as you can before the color drains from the sky. I wish it would last longer, but beggars can't be choosers.
In fact, soft light in the sky and reflections on the ground make anything look good. I could be standing in a Wal-Mart parking lot, and it would seem remarkable. That's the reason I prefer low light photography. It evokes an ephemeral mood that overrides the harsh realities of only a few minutes earlier. Anyway, when I left my house, I headed to the river. But perhaps I could have driven in the other direction to Wal-Mart and had just as much fun. You never know.

Rams @ Saints NFC Championship Thread
phillygrrl08 replied to cmh6476's topic in FFToday BoardYup. Terrible play calling there. Entirely different game if the Saints keep the clock running. Then NO called a time out on second down. Not Divisional Championship caliber decision-making.
KC vs NO, a shootout with KC pulling out a last second win.
Antonio Brown requests trade
phillygrrl08 replied to Mike FF Today's topic in FFToday BoardMethinks you have highly overvalued Ben and Brown, no way they fetch those kind of draft picks in return. Maybe a single first rounder, but as a GM I'd probably stick it out and see what I could get in the draft instead of trading the franchise for a near-retirement QB or a diva WR.
Super Bowl MVP Could Be a Back-up QB, AGAIN!
phillygrrl08 replied to BiPolarBear's topic in FFToday BoardIf Foles takes the Eagles deep into the playoffs, the Eagles should consider trying to somehow parlay Wentz into a Bell or Antonio Brown acquisition, perhaps through JAX. Of course that means signing Foles for a multi year deal.
DJax , Funchess and Cam Cordarelle Patterson All INACTIVE
Hi weepaws, yes I would take Kelce late round one, early round two. I wouldn't take him in the top six or seven probably, but I'd feel comfortable taking him anytime after the 10th pick. Let's face it, a TE like Kelce or Ertz made the difference for your team this year, especially with the emergence of Mahomes. Williams is an interesting call. He was ballyhooed as the next best thing in Miami but could never get a foothold in the rotation. He has a lot of wear left on him, is explosive, can catch out of the backfield--he saved my fantasy playoffs in more than one league this year. Will Reid promote him to the role Hunt had? If he looks good in training camp and looks to assume the lead RB duties I may move him up as draft day approaches. One thing most league champs have in common are KC players on their rosters. Think about some of the early draft picks--Bell, Johnson, Gronk, Fournette--and you may have wished you'd jumped on Hill or Kelce instead. It would have looked like a ridiculous pick in August, but in December very prescient. And one thing I can always say about you, weepaws, you are genuinely polite and sincere and I don't think I've ever heard snark from you, so I always assume your posts are coming from a good place. Have a great New Year, my friend!
Not top seven for me, I'd get Kelce or Hill first. End of round two, early 3rd maybe
If he stays healthy and is number one on the depth chart after training camp, I'd consider taking him before McCoy and Miller. Fournette, too. Leave Fournette as the fool's gold that destroys rosters early.

"Funny business" on WW Finals Week ..
phillygrrl08 replied to Bills04's topic in FFToday BoardNow you know what league to not be a part of next year. I've had friendships impacted by BS fantasy moves. Play in impersonal nobody knows anyone leagues that are tightly regulated by people who have more to lose than you--their reputation. Also, in any decent league rosters are locked for non-playoff teams and any player dropped after a certain week becomes ineligible to be picked up for the rest of the season. Yeah, that was pure bull. And I'm sure Pam has pretty t!tties, but that doesn't mean that flies.
We had our ship week 17 once. That was all it took to change that arrangement.
Chiefs at Seahawks: In-Game Discussion
phillygrrl08 replied to Mike FF Today's topic in FFToday BoardI would add that this may be the ideal situation for Damien Williams. Had some hype while in MIA but never could get a foothold. Seems like he may have found his home and KC may have found a solution to their revolving door of RBs. Really liked what I saw from him.
Monday night what do you need?
phillygrrl08 replied to Super Cubs's topic in FFToday BoardNeed Hamilton to score less than 38. Very grateful that Ertz bailed me out of my 0-from-Gurley situation. $1250 on the line.

Requirements for a Career in Dialysis Technology - Video
People who work in Dialysis Technology, or nephrology as it is sometimes known, are known as Dialysis Technicians or Dialysis Technologists. These professionals prepare patients for dialysis and monitor machines during the dialysis process. Learn more about the training and certification required for a career in Dialysis Technology here.
Education and Training
To work in Dialysis Technology, you must first earn a high school diploma or a GED. Once you have a diploma or the equivalent, you can complete a training program through a medical facility or an education program through a community college or vocational school.
If you opt for training through a hospital or another medical facility, you will receive your instruction from a registered nurse or a certified nephrology technologist. If you enroll in an education program through a community college or vocational school, you will take courses in health, patient care and hemodialysis. Most education programs take approximately one to two years to complete and result in a certificate or diploma.
Although certification is not required, Dialysis Technicians and Technologists can become certified in nephrology technology. Certification is awarded through two different organizations: The Board of Nephrology Examiners and the National Nephrology Certification Organization.
The Board of Nephrology Examiners offers certification to Dialysis Technicians and Technologists who currently work in an End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) facility and have at least one year of experience in nephrology patient care.
The National Nephrology Certification Organization awards a certification in clinical nephrology technology. To earn the designation, you must complete a one-year educational program in nephrology technology and pass a written examination. If you were trained on the job, you can substitute 2,000 hours of work experience for the academic requirement.
Certification from either organization demonstrates your expertise in Dialysis Technology and can lead to increased job opportunities.

The MF_NG module is the successor of the MBHP_MF module and has following design targets:
- find a solution to handle high-quality faders like Alps K faders with "coreless" motors
- find a solution for MBHP_CORE_LPC17 which doesn't deliver stable enough ADC conversion results due to the reduced 3.3V voltage range
- find a solution for MBHP_CORE_LPC17 which cannot handle touch sensors properly without heavy CPU load (resp. without an additional external device or microcontroller)
- find a solution which is compatible with PIC based projects for best usability
- find a solution which is DIY friendly and doesn't require additional gear for something which isn't part of the MBHP yet
- find a solution which can be easily tested and troubleshooted (no need to learn new processes)
And this module is the result:
- a dedicated PIC controller controls the motorfaders directly.
- the firmware can be updated via MIDI!
- motorfaders are accessed via MIDI - this allows standalone usage, cascading (to chain multiple modules), and the re-use of existing infrastructure such as MIOS, MIOS Studio and MIOS Bootloader
- the module can either be connected to a PC directly, or controlled from a second PIC or STM32 or LPC17 (note that MBHP_CORE_LPC17 has a third and even a fourth MIDI IO port at TTL level so that the available two MIDI IO pairs are still free)
- native support of various protocols (e.g. PitchBender, CCs, even Logic Control and Mackie Control Emulation)
- support for 8 touch sensors
- instead of TC4427 I'm using L293D now - not at least because of the integrated diodes.
- due to the direct motor control connections, the PIC is now able to generate PWM with 50 uS steps for improved motor speed control while a motor is moved
- since the firmware is dedicated for this task, there was enough memory free to integrate advanced features, such as runtime-calibration and motor position tracing which are supported by MIOS Studio:

Overcoming an addiction is never easy. An addict may constantly ask him or herself when is it time for addiction treatment services? The recovery process is an ongoing process which will continue long after the addict has overcome the initial addiction problem. An important point worth noting about addiction recovery is that its success or failure is totally dependent upon the addict's resolve to succeed.
In many instances, the addict may have the resolve to succeed but he or she may not be aware of where to get help. There exist numerous resources from which the addict can get information on addiction treatment services. Another point worth noting about addiction recovery is that the support of friends or relatives is crucial.
The failure of many addicts to kick their addiction habits can be attributed to a lack of support by family members or friends. Counselors and therapists at addiction treatment facilities may be very helpful to the addict. However, the addict needs to feel that a close person that is a family member or a friend is with him or her during the recovery process.
In other instances, addicts may not be aware that they need help or be may be living in a state of denial. This kind of scenario only serves to aggravate the addiction. For addicts asking themselves when is it time for addiction treatment services, there are a number of factors which show that the time has come to seek help. These factors signify that the addict is ready for change.
For starters, the addict will begin hating his or her addiction. In addition to that, the addict will feel guilty each time he or she takes the alcohol or the drugs. Secondly, the addict who is wondering when is it time for addiction treatment services, will begin hating what he or she has done to others because of the addiction. This aspect of addiction is mostly seen in instances where addiction has led to the breakdown of relationships with family and friends. The addict neglects these important aspects of his or her life and chooses to focus solely on alcohol and drug abuse. The addict may begin hating the situation and yearning for these relationships to be restored. The addict will want to reconnect with his or her family and friends and share life with them as before.
A third sign that is it time for addiction treatment services is when the addict loses his or her job or drops out of school. This is due to the fact that the alcohol and drug abuse has led to a situation whereby the addict is unable to carry out everyday duties. Because of that, working relations with colleagues deteriorate and output falls drastically.
Fourthly, the addict may fall into severe bouts of depression. In the worst cases, the addict may even contemplate suicide. The addict will also begin to understand that he or she is responsible not only for the addiction, but also wellbeing. The addict realizes that he has the power to alter his or her life for the better. The addict also realizes that he or she cannot quit addiction without the help of others.

As Marian Orr's vision became progressively worse, the 80-year-old grandmother could no longer recognize her friends and family. "I couldn't see their faces, just a halo around their face," says Orr. "My dad and my uncle had both lost their sight and they missed out on so much. I didn't want to go through that."
Orr was diagnosed with macular degeneration, a disease that affects more than 10 million Americans and is the leading cause of blindness in people age 65 and older. Macular degeneration affects the center of the retina, called the macula, which is especially important for reading, watching television, and recognizing faces.
Fortunately, Orr qualified for a then-experimental telescope implant, developed by VisionCare Ophthalmic Technologies and performed by specially trained ophthalmic surgeons as an outpatient procedure.
The pea-sized implant is one of the few options available for people with end-stage macular degeneration. It consists of two lenses within a small glass tube and is implanted in only one eye which patients use for detailed vision. The untreated eye is used for peripheral vision.
First, doctors remove the cataract from the eye. Next, the telescope is put into the support structure of the eye's lens, called the lens capsule, so it sits where the cataract was. Once inside the eye, the telescope works like a fixed telephoto lens, acting in conjunction with the cornea to project a magnified image over a large part of the retina.
Orr says she experienced no pain following the two-hour surgical procedure in her doctor's office. She wore a patch over the untreated eye to strengthen the one with the telescope. "Now, I can walk into a room and see the person's whole face," she says. "I can read books–small and large print. The only thing I can't do is drive and, considering the price of gas, that's not a handicap!"
Orr calls the telescope implant nothing short of a miracle. She hopes it becomes widely available soon because she has a lot of friends who could benefit from the procedure. Those friends probably won't have to wait long. The FDA approved the device in July.
Visit VisionCare Ophthalmic Technologies website to learn more about how the telescope implant works and whether it's right for you or a family member. The NIH offers facts about macular degeneration. For more on symptoms, treatment and prevention, visit the Mayo Clinic website or MedlinePlus. To find an eye doctor in your area, visit the American Academy of Ophthalmology website.

It was a nice summer day in Washington D.C., which was to say that it was an X-File which hadn't been given to Mulder and Scully yet, and would most likely be unsolvable. Though it was quite humid, it was also cloudy in a very nice way.
The roses looked redder, and the birdsong seemed to be a bit livelier. New mothers took their young ones out for strolls along the tranquil sidewalks, and tourists were genuinely glad to be out and about, taking pictures of the scenery instead of the truly bizarre spectacles this city had to offer.
Scully and Mulder were sipping coffee on the patio of a cafe, quite relaxed and untroubled about life. They were in between cases, and were in fact ordered by Directory Skinner to "do something fun for a change." The last word they heard as his office door shut was, "And I don't want to hear anything about it from anyone else!"
That was this morning. It was now approaching noon, and they felt waves of relief flow through them as they realized that they didn't have to do a thing. Even Mulder was beginning to smile.
They talked about anything and everything that didn't have a thing to do with work or anything related to it. They talked about the art that would be presented at a local art gallery later today, things they saw at the mall that would make good presents, cars, planes, yesterday's stocks when Wall Street closed, and so on...
They might as well have been some unusual form of a tranquil married couple.
"I'll be back in a moment," said Scully, excusing herself and entering the cafe.
Mulder now sat alone in the patio, looking at the quaint buildings surrounding him, when he noticed two businessmen sit down at a nearby table.
One had white hair and pale skin, and if it weren't for the fact that he had an American accent, Mulder would have sworn that the man was a Scandinavian. The other was an older man with a well-textured New Jersey voice and a well-developed body, with a suntan to match.
Mulder let his mind wander, not even attempting to eavesdrop, but he couldn't help but overhear the conversation that took place after they were done with the "how's your coffee" exchange.
As the moments passed, Mulder realized that he had no choice but to listen in on the conversation. There was nothing unusual about them: they both looked like normal, respectable businessmen -- perhaps even executives -- and they were speaking at a nice, soft volume. Nevertheless, he couldn't keep his ears away.
"Here's the bottom line, Gabriel" said the New Jersey man, "I just can't do this job anymore. I know it's important, so don't tell me how necessary it is -- I just can't take it anymore. I can't walk down the street and get nothing but spit in my face."
"Here's the official bottom line, Satan," said Gabriel, his accent one of those 'unplaceable' American accents. He could have come from anywhere. "You're the best there is. Nobody is good enough to replace you, and in this day and age, Evoking of Evil is the highest form of public service."
"I know... I know... But take a look it from my point of view: whenever something goes wrong, it's somehow my fault. They never credit me when things go right, but when things go wrong, I'm to blame.
"What's more, I haven't had a healthy relationship with a woman in who knows how long. I'm an Angel, just as much as you are, and the only women who would have anything to do with me are crazy lunatics who hope to gain some 'power' in exchange for their souls." He snorted, "As if I had any power to give, or wanted their souls to begin with!"
Gabriel was without pity, "I don't know how to tell you any more gently, but your request for a transfer has been denied. You've only yourself to blame, you know -- you were the one who told YHWH -- " That word sent Mulder's mind spinning. It was as if someone played a trick of perception on him -- he heard the word, but it was as if someone had taken out all the vowels from his memory after he heard the whole word pronounced. " -- that you could do the job better than he could. You gave him a proposal and even a feasibility study report, so you should have expected this to happen."
"Can't you get anyone to take over my job?" whined Satan.
"No. Plain and simple."
"This is Washington D.C. -- surely you can find at least one soul worthy enough!"
Gabriel laughed at that one. "Most certainly, but none are as competent and objective as you! I wonder how many of them actually know that Satan is a nice and moral man -- far more moral than most on this world?"
Scully chose this moment to come back out to the table. She looked quizzically at Mulder, asking, "Is there something wrong?"
He looked at her, and was about to shush her, when he realized at that moment, Gabriel and Satan were now speaking about politics. //Smooth transition!// thought Mulder admiringly. "No," he said. "I'm just thinking." //What's the point telling her? She'd never believe me!//
Just as Mulder and Scully left the patio, Mulder thought he could hear Gabriel say, "See what I mean? You've a natural gift! Imagine the torment he'll go through now!"
Mulder grimaced -- Scully didn't see it -- wondering what the point of all this was. Did the two Angels intentionally reveal themselves to Mulder just to torment him, or did they only take advantage of a rare situation? Was it even real, or his imagination?
"What do you want to do?" Scully asked him.
"Let's go see that art exhibit," said Mulder, sighing subtly enough to not cue Scully in on his pensiveness. His day might be ruined by these developments, but he wouldn't ruin it for Scully.

Thank you for all your kind words and donations.
Not only were we able to buy groceries and pay the utility bills..but, we have found resources that we didn't even know that existed.
While Jim continues to look for more steady work, he has been able to sub at the local schools when they call him in. (something is much better than nothing)
I have also decided to try and look for a job. Maybe between the two of us, we can make this all work out.

I did it! I made an Angel Food Cake and it wasn't a disaster. It was the complete opposite of a disaster, it was amazing. I used this recipe from The Farmers Daughter, and it was simple and easy. (below is the recipe, but click on the website to see photo instructions!)
Angel Food CakeIngredients:1 1/2 cups of Egg Whites (approx. 10-12 eggs) - *it's important that your eggs are at room temperature before you start!1 1/4 cups of Icing Sugar1 cup of Flour1 1/2 tsp Cream of Tartar1 1/2 tsp Vanilla1/2 tsp Almond Extract1/4 tsp Salt1 cup Sugar1 TBSP nonpareils (sprinkles) - to make your cake colourful! optional (but not really optional)
Directions:1) First, separate the egg whites from the yolks, being careful that no yolk contaminates each egg white. Make sure that you have 1 1/2 cups of egg whites, and place in a mixing bowl.2) Next, in a separate bowl, sift your icing sugar and flour together three times, and set aside.3) Add cream of tartar, vanilla and almond extracts, and salt to the egg whites. Beat on high speed, and gradually add in sugar. Mix until all of the sugar is dissolved, and stiff peaks have formed.4) Very gently, fold in flour mixture, 1/4 cup at a time. Then fold in nonpareils!5) Gently spoon into an ungreased 10-inch tube pan.6) Bake for 40-45 minutes at 350 degrees.7) Immediately invert pan onto a cooling rack, and let the cake cool completely before removing from the pan.
I followed all the instruction, and didn't get any egg yolk in the whites when I was separating TEN eggs! My mixer was a huge help and the eggs tripled, even quadrupled in size within a minute. When I carefully folded in the dry ingredients I didn't mix much air out! I even added rainbow sprinkles!
It went into a pre-heated oven (I'm notorious for not pre-heating) and it didn't sink, and went golden brown! I took it out, and let it cool completely in the tin upside down (like everyone who I asked told me!)
For the icing I used this recipe from Pixels & Paperie . It was super easy (even though I needed my mum to help because I was terrified about using the electric mixer over a simmering pot of water!
Marshmallow Frosting4 large egg whites
1 Cup ordinary sugar (white or brown)
1 pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla essence
Place all ingredients except the vanilla essence into a bowl which you can place over a pot of simmering water.
Whisk the egg white mixture constantly over simmering water until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot to the touch. {It takes around 5 minutes}.
Pour the mixture into a bigger bowl and beat with an electric mixer for 3 minutes. {Add the vanilla while beating}. After 3 minutes, the mixture will be lovely and fluffy.
The meringue frosting was like melted marshmallow! So glossy, soft, sticky, and yummy!
I served the cake for dessert at my halloween games night, and everyone loved it. My sister Alex even exclaimed that she wanted a cake like this for her birthday. The left-overs where taken to work to be judged by a group of people who really appreciate their cakes! Even V who doesn't like sweet things adored the frosting and was eating it from the cake!
All and all I'm so fucking proud of this cake. I was so scared about how hard it seemed, but it really was very easy! I do recommend if you make it yourself to make sure the eggs are at room temperature, and that you triple sieve the dry ingredients, and also use an angel food cake tin, or bundt cake tin!
Please try and make this cake yourself - I would love to hear what you think - it has no dairy in it, so it's perfect for daily intolerance friends and family.
I would love to try a cupcake or chocolate version of this cake in the future!
Thanks for reading
Molly xoxo

Best tutorial to Get HULU Plus accounts for free. In the age of ownership in digitization of videos on the internet, Hulu and Netflix belong to the old school for starting their digital marketing platforms way back in the last decade. If you are searching for Free Accounts in Netflix 2017, we have already dedicated an article for that. So, in this one, we obviously are going to discuss Free Accounts in Hulu.
Hulu is a video on demand online platform based on United States America, which is owned by Hulu LLC, with stakes belonging to biggies like Walt Disney, 21st Century Fox, Comcast, and others. Hulu initially started off as a video on demand website and was considered as a competition for YouTube in its initial days when begun in 2008, two years later YouTube.
- Also Get 20 Free Netflix Premium Accounts.
HULU Plus
However, in the game world of digitized services, Hulu stands in with its strong viewer base. If we count back to the past, 2012 is the year for the services like Netflix, Hulu plus, Amazon Prime and others to enter into the streaming services and people started losing interest on TV subscriptions. Among all these, Hulu is precisely for the audience who are TV buffs and find no time watching their favorite TV shows or what not!
Ever since streaming sites like these have started producing their content, people started losing interest in the TV platforms, and this clearly shows the time is close to the end of satellite media and broadcasting networks for real, isn't it?
I, personally find the streaming websites much better than that of the TV shows and platforms that provide cable content. Though there is a slight change in the countries like India with people started using set top boxes instead of regular cables, the scene doesn't change much. How many times had you yelled at your service provider for lack of proper connection in your TV waited for the show for a re-telecast? This doesn't happen if you are one of the guys watching your favorite shows on one of the streaming sites.
Hulu Free live TV streaming service, which is all set to debut later this spring just added six great channels to their selection. Earlier this month, Hulu announced it's new partnership to add the A+E Network's family of six channels in their Live TV scheme. The channels include Lifetime, Vineland, A&E, History; the remaining channels will come up to live after a few tradeoffs. Viacom, a potential name in the satellite business has reportedly backed away from a big deal from Hulu, which apparently means it is going to lose access the content from Nickelodeon and Comedy Central.
Hulu Free Accounts
There are already a plenty of news channels that are available on Hulu with major broadcast players in the market like CBS, Disney, Fox and Time Warner, which also includes their sports, documentary, and entertainment subsidiaries. With the addition of A+E Networks, now, Hulu's subscribers will be able to experience the content streaming from A&E's Wediquette from Vineland, Project Runaway from Lifetime, and Born This Way from Emmy-Winning. Enjoy Hulu Free subscription.
Vudu's menu pages are so skewed to studio stuff that those looking for more challenging fare might be apt to throw up their hands too soon. Services like Mubi, FilmStruck, and Fandor, have far more of those types of offerings, but Vudu isn't entirely lacking — it's just not immediately visible. Boutique distributors such as Oscilloscope, Kino Lorber, and Magnolia have movies on the site. I was able to find, for instance, "Ma," a very unusual dance-in-film directed by and starring Celia Rowlson-Hall, by doing a keyboard search in which, looking for something else, I'd put in the letters "m" and "a." Lucky, that. Hulu Free is really excellent service.
Having said that, the streaming site like Hulu is a beautiful one which has multiple options for all the customers depending on their choices. By offering such mammoth options, it must be tough for a viewer to chose the show he wants to watch, but what more can anyone ask for? This article completes the topics you are searching about Hulu. You can thank us later!
Premium Hulu Accounts
Like we said, if you are TV buff and want to catch your favorite TV show for a binge watch, Hulu is a solid selection. Comparing Hulu to the content of Netflix, Hulu still stands firm in competition with Netflix. Thanks to the ownership and stakes in Hulu by biggies like NBCUniversal, Fox Entertainment Group, Disney-ABV Television Group and Turner Broadcasting System, Hulu has enough original content for you to watch streaming on their site.
The best part about having an account with Hulu is that Hulu subscribers don't have to wait for their TV shows unlike Netflix subscribers for months or years. The shows will be on the site within a day!
Talking about the subscription prices, you can get everything on Hulu by paying $7.99 per month. The content you get also includes the own selection and the original content that you can't find on the television. The trend of telecasting content online has just started in India and, in my view, by the time Hulu starts its operations in India, some company like Reliance or Tatas will set up a similar service. Right now the competition is only between Amazon and Netflix, but the game will be widening for the contest between the biggies. Since four big corporations own Hulu in the United States, it would not be tough for them to get the license in India.
So, the day is not so far where we can experience lower prices among the streaming websites like we are experiencing in the case of data charges right now in India. The real competition between the streaming companies brings the best out of the product, anytime. This is the reason why monopolies won't last long enough on any market. As soon as there are competitors for the products, the customers will have many choices to go for. HuluPlus is my favourite.
There are many ways to get free accounts on Hulu out there on the internet. You must have tried and failed to attain free accounts. Here we are providing free HuluPlus accounts that give access for you to watch their original content.
Here is an updated list of Hulu Plus Accounts for this month:

Court asks lottery distribution company to pay taxes in India
The Bombay High Court, an Indian court in the state of Maharashtra, has ordered a lottery distribution company to pay tax on the proceeds of lottery ticket sales. The court summarily rejected the challenge on Maharashtra Tax on Lotteries Act from 2006. The petitioner, Mangal Murti Marketing, a sub-distributor of the state-organised lottery operated by two other Indian state governments of Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland, sought to challenge the provisions of the act, but the court rejected the argument.
The petitioner's counsel P S Raman argued that the act was passed to restrict and forbid the sale of other states' lottery tickets in Maharashtra. He claimed that the Lottery Regulation Act had already been enacted in 1998 to regularise the conduct of state organised lottery business and with a view to offer security to ticket purchasers and claimed that the state government cannot levy taxes on another state government's revenues.
9stacks Launches Pokerface With Gopal Datt: India's First Poker Chat Show
Pokerface with Gopal Datt is a first-of-its-kind poker chat show which celebrates the lives and stories of poker players. This first episode can be watched on the 9stacks YouTube Channel here. Episode 2 of the series was released on Friday, 17th May 2019, on the 9stacks YouTube channel. The episode that has Datt interview poker heavyweight Deepak Bothraand TVF Bachelors fame Badri Chavan, can be watched here.
The twist is that each episode features one actor/celebrity and one poker player, and gets both to spill the beans about their journey to fame and fortune. In a fun way, this draws parallels between the featured celebrities and poker players and celebrates the achievements of both guests.
The first episode of the show, hosted by Gopal Datt (the Internet's very own funny man), features Amol Parashar, of TVF Tripling fame, and one of India's top poker players Nishant Sharma. Last year Nishant won the highest ever prize money by an Indian poker player at the World Series of Poker Main Event in Las Vegas.
Nishant, along with fellow poker pro Vivek Rughani, was part of the 9stacks Team India at the World Series of Poker and they became the first two Indians to enter the top 100 in the prestigious WSOP Main Event. Read the article here.
In the episode, Nishant speaks candidly about achieving his poker dreams and how he became a 'Hero' for other players in the industry. Many players now come to him for advice on their gameplay and some even ask him for selfies. His 'Bina Darre' playing style has won many hearts.
Nishant is accompanied by the celebrated actor Amol Parashar, who is also an avid poker player himself. An IIT Delhi alumnus, Amol was always into acting and was very interested in theatre. Amol recalled how his poker skills helped him sniff out a bluff early in his career: "Once I was offered a film with big casts like Mr. Amitabh Bachhan, Naseeruddin Shah, Sharman Joshi. Since I was new in the industry, I was asked to attend the workshop for the same where I was asked to pay Rs. 15,000 as room rent. I couldnt help but smell a bluff there. I mean, after all, if they were such a big film company, they surely wouldn't ask me to pay Rs. 15,000 to book a room to rehearse in, right?"
Many more revelations came in the rapid fire segment of the show where the answers were 'rapid and full of fire'. Unlike Koffee with Karan, the guests here got a lot of love instead of hampers!

The law creating PAGCOR was later amended and consolidated under PD 1869 otherwise known as the PAGCOR Charter. In June 2007, Republic Act No. 9487 was passed by the Philippines Congress, extending the corporate life by 25 years, renewable for another 25 years.

Detroit judge who sent photo upsetting to bailiff's husband censured
DETROIT — Third Circuit Court Judge Wade McCree sent a naked picture of himself to a female court bailiff. Apparently she didn't mind, but her husband did, so he gave it to us and we gave it to you and now the Michigan Supreme Court has given it back to Judge McCree, publicly censuring him Wednesday for judicial misconduct.
"It's very rare for a judge to get a slap on the wrist like this unless the judge did something really bad on the bench. So for the Supreme Court to look at this, to review this, and for the judge to agree with it, it's pretty bad," said FOX 2 legal analyst Charlie Langton.
"A judge has to set the example for others to follow. I mean, judges are held to a higher standard. There's integrity in the system of being a judge and this guy didn't do it."
Judge McCree wouldn't come out of his chambers for an interview, but here are a few of the court's findings. During an interview with yours truly, McCree "conducted himself in a flippant manner and did not give the interview the seriousness he should have. As a result, he brought shame and obloquy to the judiciary. For example, when discussing the digital image of himself, he said, 'There is no shame in my game.'"
The Supreme Court also found that the interview and the digital image spread rapidly around the internet and became the subject of jokes and ridicule.
McCree's lawyer told me that, in the end, the judge was guilty of giving a bad interview, that McCree should have acted "more judgey".
The Supreme Court also wrote in its decision that McCree's female bailiff kept his naked picture as motivation to remind her to exercise and eat right. I spoke to the female bailiff's husband and he says all it did was wreck their marriage.

This is the first of what I hope will be several guest book reviews in the coming weeks. -JO
From Reel to Deal by Dov S-S Simens
Dov Simens' From Reel to Deal is, well, the real deal.
Simens, a Hollywood fixture as a film instructor, takes us down into the filmmaking mines with him and sends us home with more than a few gold nuggets.
Having sat at the feet of the master in one of his filmmaking seminars many years ago, I found From Reel to Deal a welcome refresher to a time well spent in class.
Maybe that's because Simens came across to me as a man with moxie, a little pugnacious as he took us behind the industry veil to reveal the ages-old secrets of film producing.
And Simens' book is like that – a no-nonsense, bare knuckles step-by-step exposition of what it takes to make an independent film.
If you're fortunate enough to be shooting on 35mm, take for example Simens' summary advice for those filmmakers on how they're viewed by film labs, "Even though you see yourself as a small, low-budget feature filmmaker, to the lab, you're a big fish. Every lab wants your business."
Based on that premise, Simens goes on to say, "I beg you, don't pay retail. Haggle and get your developing and print costs down to at least 30 cents/foot."
Engaging, informative and in clear, direct language, Simens walks us through all the steps that go into independent filmmaking and, even though the hypothetical budget is set at one million dollars, the information is valuable for any level of independent production.
From an authentic look at oneself as a producer, to pre-production and marketing your film, Simens leads would-be filmmakers from script to budgeting, to production and post, and on to sale and marketing with every stop in between.
Simens gives helpful homework assignments at the close of each chapter (e.g., from chapter 3 on producers, 'Write down the traits you feel you have to be successful as a producer. Then proceed to the next chapter and compare' – I'm at various points on the learning curve regarding the hierarchy of proudcer traits found in Chapter 4). He also offers both a list of books and one of contacts pertinent to each particular chapter at each chapter's conclusion.
For the heart of deal making and its bare bone essentials, Simens book offers what you need to know. But for more of the ins and outs, including many current names and companies in the marketing and distribution arena, I'd recommend I Wake up Screening: What to Do Once You've Made That Movie by John Anderson and Laura Kim and The Insider's Guide to Independent Film Distribution by Stacey Parks, each gives good direction for the road to your film's distribution.
Having implemented many of Dov Simens' ideas and methods, I can attest to the merit of From Reel to Deal as a valuable tool in the indie film process.

Hooray, it seems I'm not alone in my wish for a smaller Cadbury Dairy Milk Bubbly Bar. Just spotted in my local Costcutter was the new Bubbly Mini Bar.
I wrote about the larger 100g and 90g bars in an earlier post (see here) and my hopes that it would be available in a smaller version one day. And now it is.
If you haven't seen the Bubbly Bars yet, they are made from Cadbury's dairy milk chocolate with an aerated milk chocolate filling. Their tagline is 'A burst of joy in every bubble'.
210 calories each, so still quite a lot for a small snack.
I keep mine in the fridge (hidden in the vegetable drawer where my kids won't look) and break off a few bubbles at a time when I need a chocolate fix.
Found in a branch of Costcutter but no doubt finding their way into the mass market as I write.
Nutrition information per bar: 210 calories, 3.0g protein, 22.5g carbohydrates, 22.5g sugars, 12.0g fat, 7.4g saturates, 0.3g fibre, 0.10g salt. Suitable for vegetarians

Estelle has revealed that Kanye West has written a song about wives and girlfriends (WAGs) for her forthcoming single.
The London artist, who recently toured with West, claimed that he would rap the lyrics on single 'American Boy' from her next album Shine.
Estelle revealed that West came up with the idea to sing about the subject, telling the Daily Star: "We were in the studio when Kanye started rapping about Ribena, his favourite drink, and WAGs. I said to him 'Do you even know what a WAG is?' And he said: 'Yeah. She's a gold digger'."
She described the sound of the WAGs single, saying: "The track is more of a dance song than hip-hop or R'n'B. It sounds like Moloko or Jamiroquai. I love working with Kanye. He's a musical genius."

Miami Dolphins
Dolphins CB Cortland Finnegan (ankle) practices but remains cautious
Cortland Finnegan returned to practice Wednesday. Whether he returns to action Monday night remains to be seen.
Finnegan, who missed the past two games with an injured ankle, practiced on a limited basis. However, he is not 100 percent yet and is being "smart" in managing the injury, according to a league source.
Finnegan is concerned about a possible setback, and doesn't want to return too early.
"Hopefully I help the football team, if need be, if I can," Finnegan said. "I'm making improvements. Time heals everything. You just have to give time time. ... I'm progressing every day."
Complicating matters at the cornerback position: Jamar Taylor is dealing with an issue of his own, and his availability for the Jets game is in doubt. Taylor separated his shoulder in the Broncos game, but tests revealed no structural damage.
If neither Finnegan nor Taylor can go, the Dolphins would start Lowell Rose, Walt Aikens or R.J. Stanford at corner – none of whom have ever started an NFL game.
Receiver Mike Wallace also sat out practice Wednesday for undisclosed reasons.
The nature of Wallace's injury is unclear; the Dolphins aren't obligated to release a report until Thursday. Wallace, who has not missed a game since signing with the Dolphins in early 2013, dealt with a calf injury last week.
Some good news for the Dolphins on the injury front: tight end Charles Clay, who missed the Broncos game with knee and hamstring injuries, practiced Wednesday.
Linebacker Jonathan Freeny remains sidelined by an ailing hamstring.
Dolphins players traditionally don't fare well in Pro Bowl balloting, and this season is no different.
Miami doesn't have a single player in the top two at any position, and has none among the top 10 in overall vote-getters. Certainly, the season-ending injury to left tackle Branden Albert didn't help; he was making a strong case for All-Pro consideration before hurting his knee.
Other possible Pro Bowl candidates: corner Brent Grimes (second in the league with five interceptions), Jarvis Landry (third in the NFL in kickoff returns, averaging 30.7 yards per return), and defensive end Cameron Wake (8.5 sacks).
▪ Giants receiver Odell Beckham is the talk of the league after his jaw-dropping, one-handed touchdown catch against the Cowboys last night.
On Wednesday, Grimes – who had a similarly remarkable interception weeks back – weighed in.
"I may be biased but I think mine was better," Grimes said.
▪ Coach Joe Philbin chastised Jimmy Wilson's head-butt of Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders, which resulted in a 15-yard penalty: "He has to use better judgment. He's a football player, period. He has to use better judgment."
▪ The Dolphins have signed safety Ahmad Dixon to their practice squad, releasing Emmanuel Dieke to make room.
▪ The organization distributed Thanksgiving dinners to South Florida families in need late Wednesday afternoon.
