Knight, Flanagan three and four at B.A.A 5K
Knight was only 10 seconds off of Paul William's Canadian record
Justyn Knight was third Saturday at the B.A.A 5K in a time of 13:46. He was third in a very respectable field, losing to Hagos Gebrhiwet of Ethiopia who's an Olympic bronze medallist in the 5,000m and Ben True, one of the best American distance athletes on the roads. True was sixth at the 2015 World Championships in the 5,000m.

— B.A.A. (@BAA) April 13, 2019
Knight's time is only 10 seconds off of Paul Williams Canadian 5K record of 13:36 which was set in 1986 and is one of the oldest records on the boards.
After what Knight describes as a lack-lustre indoor season, he's had a very solid opener. Knight only ran one race in the 2019 indoor season and says he wasn't in his ideal race shape through the winter. "My indoor season was what everyone saw, I was out of shape. I knew I wasn't as fit as I would've like to be, but I still wanted to race and see where I was at relative to my fellow competitors. I wasn't ready to run fast then, but I feel I'm in a completely different spot now."
Training partner Ben Flanagan was fourth in Saturday's race just behind Justyn in 13:49. Flanagan and Knight train together with the Reebok Boston Track Club. Knight's next race will be Payton Jordan on May 2 in Palo Alto, California.

Enforcd, has beaten off stiff competition to become one of only 10 companies chosen to take part in the FinTech SuperCharger Hong Kong 2018.
From amongst 277 companies based in 43 countries, Enforcd emerged as one of the 10 FinTech companies most likely to make a significant impact on Hong Kong's financial ecosystem.
Enforcd will be promoting their Global Regulatory Intelligence Platform, which enables financial services firms to embed a strong compliance culture. The unique SaaS platform helps staff stay informed, identify and predict risk, and share best practice throughout their organisations.
The FinTech SuperCharger is Asia's leading FinTech Accelerator, and is sponsored by Standard Chartered, Allianz and MDEC. Their aim is to inspire and facilitate real change for financial services through testing multiple FinTech solutions and connecting young tech companies with strong partners who can help them reach that goal.
Jane Walshe, CEO and Co-Founder of Enforcd, says:
"Enforcd is excited to be pushing ahead with expansion into Asia and the Supercharger programme will give us a welcome head start. We are looking forward to working with Standard Chartered to find compelling use cases for Enforcd, as well as engaging with regulators in the region. Our selection to join this very competitive and highly regarded programme serves as further proof of our compelling offering, its scalability and global reach."
The 12-week SuperCharger program starts in March 2018, and the chosen companies will attend a number of events in Hong Kong where they will meet investors, partners and mentors as well as attend a number of workshops.
Participants will join an impressive network of FinTech companies who have already taken part in this Asia-specific Supercharger. To date, the programme has helped these companies not only raise millions of dollars but also close a number of commercial partnership deals.
Enforcd is excited to be part of the SuperCharger and will be making the most of this fantastic opportunity not only to showcase their innovative regulatory intelligence platform, but also to start building relationships with the Hong Kong and Asian financial services industry.

The talented multi-eventer has a new training set-up and her eye on contesting both the heptathlon and high jump at the IAAF World Championships this summer
Although disappointed with her performance in the high jump final at the European Indoor Championships earlier this month, Morgan Lake will be using it as further motivation as she works towards the IAAF World Championships in London this summer.
The 19-year-old cleared 1.90m in qualifying but her best of 1.85m placed her eighth in the final and was some way off her season's best of 1.92m and her UK junior high jump record PB of 1.94m.
"Reflecting on it, I was thinking more about getting a medal rather than doing my best and thinking about the process," says the 2014 world junior high jump and heptathlon gold medallist. "But although I wish it hadn't happened, I think I learned a lot from it."
The competition came after a period of change for the teenage talent, as she switched cities and coaching set-up last October to work with Aston Moore, Kelly Sotherton and Fuzz Caan in Loughborough having previously been guided by her father, Eldon.
"It's been quite positive so far," Lake says. "There have been a lot of changes technically.
"I'm feeling really comfortable with my set-up now. Hopefully it's going to bring out the best."
Lake's aim this summer is to contest both the heptathlon and the individual high jump at the World Championships and her next heptathlon will be at the Multistars meeting in Florence at the end of April.
"I'd absolutely love to do both," she says. "I think the timetable actually allows it quite well. We'll see how the rest of the season goes but initially, looking at the season ahead, I'd like to do both."
Having only been 15 when the Olympic Games took place in Britain's capital city, Lake is eager to make the most of the experience this time around.
"The Anniversary Games (in the London Stadium) last year, just before the Olympics, was crazy," says the Rio high jump finalist.
"I'd never competed in a stadium like that before. It was so loud and people who had been at London 2012 said it wasn't even half as crazy as London 2012 was and London 2017 is going to be. Hopefully that's going to bring a big home advantage."
» Tickets for the World Para Athletics and IAAF World Championships London 2017 returned on-sale on Wednesday March 8. With over 1 million tickets applied for, it promises to be the must-see event of the year. Get your tickets at tickets.london2017athletics.com

Is this great news or not-so-great? What do you think? Comment below.
Note: No, it is not a new manga, as you might've been misled by my title. The idea is that this is a new manga to get animated and not a new manga that will be animated.

Ongoing changes in the business sector bring about new developments that create immense waves of effect. One of these trade effects is the rise of outsourcing services. Over the years, we have seen the growth of outsourcing as more and more companies from various industries depend on outsourcing services for their operational functions.
Outsourcing has been a key enabler of high performance and optimized operations for companies. While tough competition in businesses has brought cost pressures and heightened focus on bottom lines, outsourcing services have become synonymous to faster turnaround rates, increased quality of work and more cohesive business management.
Established in 2018, Base64 solutions a company located in Lisbon that provides a wide and valuable variety of outsourcing services, relying heavily on experience, problem solving abilities and team values, rather than simply having resources.

As gallery goers know, Bangkok's visual art scene is thriving, despite the pressures of censorship
Over the past decade the art scene in Bangkok has grown considerably, and in its wake a slew of interesting venues have opened. In the past six months or so several new galleries have entered the fray, including Maison Close and Galerie Adler in the Charoen Krung Creative District, and Galerie Oasis, an art house and art house cinema in one (on Sukhumvit Soi 43). Add that to the already huge number of established galleries in this town and you've got yourself a lot of visual stimulation.
But formal (or informal) galleries are not the only place in the city to see art. The new Leica store in Gaysorn Plaza has its own photo gallery—appropriately called the Leica Gallery Bangkok—and vegetarian restaurant Broccoli Revolution on Sukhumvit Soi 49 has given over its 2nd floor area to an inventive gallery called Case Space Revolution. Meanwhile, the P. Tendercool furniture showroom on Charoen Krung 30 has used its vast wall space to showcase some very interesting artists, including the abstract works of Somboon Hormtientong (pictured above), which are on display until June 19th.
You can also find art on the walls on many bars and restaurants in Bangkok, and Eat Me restaurant even has a rotating selection of artwork for diners to admire, exclusively curated by H Gallery on nearby Sathorn Soi 12. Or, head to Smalls on Soi Suan Phlu where owner David Jacobson—an astute art collector in his own right—has his eclectic collection on display over all three floors of the bar. And, in a reverse scenario, the Ekamian (Sukhumvit Soi 40) is a relatively new art gallery that doubles as an innovative Chef's Table restaurant.
Of course, it would be criminal to leave out Bangkok's legion of street artists, who use derelict buildings as their colourful canvasses. Equally well known by the public as the police, these graffiti gadflys often infuse their work with social critique, something that is usually censored outright in Thailand's conventional gallery or museum settings. But if a work is too controversial—such as the numerous black leopard wall murals that sprang up last March in response to a high profile case of illegal poaching—then it mysteriously "disappears" under a coat of fresh white paint, courtesy of the municipal powers that be. Proof positive of the underlying power of art.
This city's ongoing creative explosion has also been enhanced by more and more by acclaimed international artists coming to Bangkok to display their work. Recent "brushes with fame" include a visit by Japanese-American artist Madsaki, who unveiled his largest ever public installation on May 8th at Central Embassy (1031 Phloen Chit Rd). And in October the Bangkok Art Biennale arrives.
If it all sounds like a lot to take in, don't worry… it is! However, the Bangkok Art Map (BAM), which has been publishing a monthly guide to the city's art scene for over 10 years now, is a handy resource tool for local gallery goers wanting to know the who, what, and where when it comes to visual art.

What happened
Shares of Omnicell (NASDAQ:OMCL), a medication management company focused on automating the pharmacy, rose 13% as of 11:20 a.m. EDT on Friday. The jump was caused by a well-received second-quarter earnings report that featured expectation-topping guidance.
So what
Here's a review of the highlights from the report:
- Non-GAAP revenue jumped 4% to $188.7 million.
- Non-GAAP gross margin expanded 380 basis points to 49.1%.
- Non-GAAP net income grew 44% to $18.4 million.
- Non-GAAP EPS was $0.46 per share. This was far ahead of the $0.39 that Wall Street had projected.
Turning to guidance, here's what the company is projecting:
- Third-quarter revenue will land between $200 million and $206 million. The midpoint of this range is ahead of what market watchers were expecting.
- Third-quarter EPS is expected to land between $0.52 and $0.57.
- Full-year 2018 revenue is projected to land between $780 million and $800 million. The middle of this range is in line with Wall Street's estimate.
- Full-year 2018 EPS is expected to land between $1.90 and $2.05. The midpoint of this range is ahead of the $1.95 that market watchers were expecting.
Given the upbeat results, it isn't hard to figure out why shares are up by double digits today.
Now what
Omnicell's second-quarter results show that the business is scaling nicely as revenue continues to tick higher. That's a great development for investors and bodes well for profit growth from here as the company continues to ride the pharmacy automation wave.

Conference Championship Selections
By: Anthony "Ace" Michael (@BsptSportsPicks)
In round 2 I went 3-1 with a nice Celtics +290 Series UPSET! I am looking to go 2-0 here in the Conference Finals once again. This is where you will make your money!!!!
Not only am I giving out my picks, I also found the Best Odds Online for you to Bet them so no excuses! Take advantage for these odds while you can.
This is how I see the Conference Round and let's try to go perfect:
Eastern Conference Finals
This is the Match Up most of us did not figure! I have to give it to the injured Celtics fighting and make their Home Court count. They have amazed me and I even had to pick them as huge underdogs over the "to young" 76ers. This series is a little different for them though. I do believe they have team chemistry and a BIG advantage at home. Do not be surprised if they win the first two home games. In the end LeBron and the Cavs muscle out a win in Boston and should end it in 6 games. I will be having my Larry Bird jersey on the next week or so praying for the upset, but it will not happen.
Prediction: Cavaliers (-175 SERIES ODDS) win the series 4-2
Western Conference Finals
The Rockets and Warriors looked very impressive thus far. It will be a battle we have not witnessed in a long time. I think MVP Harden has his team ready to advance. The only thing that will hurt them is their defense. The Warriors will have a 100% Curry and a defense that actually plays D. This should be the difference in this series. The Warriors will win one of these first two in Houston and will never look back! You might see a slightly different style out there from Kerr that will pay off once again. Looking to Repeat the Finals Matchup.
Prediction: Warriors (-190 SERIES ODDS) win the series 4-2
Hope these selections hit again for you! See you in the Finals. For ALL my Daily selections and more selections from other Experts and Sports please go get your Free 7 Day Trial at VegasInvestmentPicks.com

In the first part of the elimination test, Špela Golob and Maj Janežič were exceptional, and Bojan Beštr managed to succeed. On the harder part of the adrenaline cooking test, Sanji Sirk and Tomaž Zevnik seemed very bad at first, but Klemen Lampič made too much mistake at the end.
Bine Volčič wished a two-part ban test for the winners. In the first part, they competed in pairs. The balcony remained better, and the worst part of the test was worse. Anza Kuplenik, who was safe, set the money. Špela fought against Tomaž, Bojan to Sanji, Klemen against May.
The main ingredient they cooked was pork. Tomaž realized that there was not enough time to prepare the rice, Sanja had the same problem with pepper's stuffed, and she suspected that she would manage to overcome Bojana. Klemen was not afraid of Maja, who, however, made a greater impression on his idea of Karim. Špela also suspected her success, was tormented by the fact that the judges so far, unlike Tomaž, have not yet praised. Tomaž and Sanja raised another route, which did not appear promising judge. Bojan was eventually with his nerves, but, like some other competitors, he was proud of the plate.
Tomaž showed too little to be a piece of plate Špela. The competitor came to his own account of the end and got great credit. Bine: "With this time you tested why you're MasterChef."The definite dose had the necessary self-confidence, and Sanja failed to impress the judges, but Bojan didn't use his knowledge to persuade him with his plate. But he was lucky Sanjin's plate was worse, as he could climb to the balcony and advised him to think about the experience he had just experienced, and in May he impressed his own time, and Klemen also prepared a delicious dish, but it has been removed by the details how they live.
Klemen, Sanja and Tomaž must take the hardest part of the elimination test. One of the three meals prepared by the judges had to be created, but not all were as heavy. Bojan, Špela and Maj gave Sanji the easiest plate, while Clemnu was the hardest.
Initially, Tomaž had problems, but Klemen fought in the challenge, he was well organized and he was totally focused. Competitors on the balcony encouraged Sanja to hurry. She wanted to test and walk out of her frame. Bine then confused Sanjo, but he collected and continued, and Tomaž played literally with fire. However, Luke found that he was going home, but the situation came unexpectedly. A piece of Sanjin meat was a few minutes before the end of a big question, while Klemen fought with time, but ended two minutes before the end of the challenge.
Sanja said that the test caused her a lot of stress that she did not feel the ground under her feet. Fortunately, he managed to bake meat, unfortunately, too little. But the other components were just as ready and because of the praise he was crying. He was tasked with testing himself with his food. Klein warned Bine that he had forgotten to put all the components on the plate, for which he had more than enough time. He made many mistakes, and the judges regretted it, as he prepared a very tasty meat. Luka Jezeršek, however, was completely surprised by the dish that Tomaž put in front of the referee. Port: "Where did you go?"He prepared an identical plate for the scene, and the competitor said that he needed their help to succeed, and because the flavors were in such a way, Luka arrived in his hand, and he did; The plate must bring proud judges again.
Klemen Lampic was the one who did the worst. He said he had learned a lot, thanked the judges for all the comments and added that he was leaving with pride and to be in front of him a great way.
Next week, the competitors will fight to fill the top five places. There will be tears. Don't miss it on Wednesday and Thursday at 9 pm on POP TV. Pre-broadcast Slovenian MasterChef on VOYO day.

Continuing the Asian extravaganza, the third major stop was a short revisit to a favorite destination: Tokyo, Japan. Tokyo wasn't an original destination on the Asian tour – Jon surprised me for my birthday by adding it after Singapore and Koh Samui were booked. Apart from the fact that he knew I loved Tokyo when we first visited, his main motivation was to book a meal at Sushi Saito – our favorite sushi restaurant in the world – again. Unfortunately, despite his best efforts, he was unable to get a pair of seats at the three-star Michelin restaurant this time. Not wanting to leave Michelin-starred sushi off the to-do list though, he contacted the extremely helpful concierge at the Park Hyatt Tokyo, who made a few other suggestions and secured a reservation for us at Sushi Kanesaka in Ginza. We also decided to try Michelin-starred tempura at Tempura Kondo, which we absolutely loved.
Despite the fact that it was crazy hot and humid during our visit, Tokyo was just as great as we'd remembered. Only having a few days and set reservations, we didn't explore too much, but we revisited some familiar sites and sought out interesting photo opportunities. Camera equipment for Tokyo was the same as for the rest of the Asian trip, a Nikon D300s and four lenses: 11-16mm f/2.8, 17-55mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8, and 24mm f/1.4. The 24mm f/1.4 was the most useful. It was used often for food and walking around in low light.

Patient Review
I found Dr F to be very caring and will do his best to resolve the issue and ease any pain that you are experiencing. The office took me in ASAP because of an emergency situation. When he could not resolve the issue because of other problems with my tooth, he was quick to offer me assistance in securing a surgeon. This is a practice that I will be sure to call upon again when needed.
- Stan F
Staff friendliness and courteousness? (Rating 1-5)
The Dr, his staff, and receptionist all very nice to deal with.

A bilingual teacher explains how her views of bilingual education have changed over time.
When I was a child, I was placed in what they called a "bilingual program". Since I have grown up and learned more about bilingual education, I now know that I was not in a bilingual program per se, but I was in an English pull-out program where I was pulled out once a day to work with an instructional assistant on my English.
As a child I hated being in an English pull-out program. Other students labeled us as the "bilingual kids" and we were treated as if we were stupid. I always thought that teachers treated me like I was stupid also because as a small child I didn't have enough English to explain to them that I could understand what they were teaching. My teachers didn't speak Spanish and wouldn't let any of the other Spanish-speaking students help translate for me. I even had a teacher who put tape on my mouth for asking someone in Spanish for clarification of what we were learning in class. One teacher even retained me in the third grade, telling my father that I didn't know enough English. Being retained harmed my self-esteem for many years.
As an early adult, I used to tell people how harmful bilingual education was. When I was in the teaching credential program, my sister asked me if she should put her child in the bilingual program and I stated that I was completely opposed to bilingual education because it was harmful to children. I can remember speaking out in class and telling people how much it had harmed me.
When I got my first job as a teacher, I was placed into a bilingual classroom and I can remember going home and crying for days because I was so upset about it. But one day the bilingual coordinator for the district came to visit me and she invited me to a training for new teachers about bilingual program. That training changed my life and forever changed my perceptions about bilingual education.
Through working with people who were knowledgeable advocates for bilingual education, I learned that my experience was what many students experience throughout the nation. I learned that I was not in a bilingual program, but I was in an English classroom with ESL pull-out. I came to learn that maybe my difficulty was because I was NOT given support in my primary language, and maybe I would have had a more successful experience if I was provided literacy and support in my native language. I learned that my "bilingual program" that I had been in as a child had only been a bilingual program in name only.
The most important thing that I learned from the training about effective forms of bilingual education was that I was missing a part of myself, having felt ashamed for years that I spoke Spanish because someone in the school system made me feel ashamed.
I have now been a bilingual educator for ten years and I would never want to only teach in an English classroom. I see my students soar as they learn two languages, and I enjoy celebrating the cultural heritage with my students that I lost as a child. I also enjoy teaching English-speaking children the joy of being bilingual.
As a bilingual teacher, I have learned over the years that much of what I was taught about bilingual education not working was nothing but false information. I work in a bilingual program where our students outscore English-speaking classrooms, although they are learning in two languages.
I wouldn't trade being a bilingual educator for anything in the world. I am so grateful that someone came along and touched my life in order to teach my about how successful bilingual programs can be if done well.

The benefits of Spanish cuisine
When going out in Palma de Mallorca, it is great to get together as a group and dive into the depths of the Mallorcan cuisine together. With a certain size of group it is possible that everyone within the group orders only one or two plates of tapas, e.g. "Pa amb Oli" (topped, roasted white bread with olive oil and various toppings), fish or meat.
When sharing those tapas everybody within the group has the possibility to explore the different styles and tastes ther Spanish cuisine offers.
Thereby you can get to know many different regional specialties and find the dishes that taste best when visiting Mallorca in Palma de Mallorca.
When eating out in good company, nice conversations quickly come up and you can discuss the benefits of Spanish cuisine with a glass of beer or wine.

You have to read to the end before you reach today's excursion into deep space by the leader of the Green Party of Canada, and even then I found I had to read twice before I untangled her syntax.
Nevertheless, it seems that one very reasonable reading of this passage in a piece on the outcome of the Commonwealth talks on climate change in Uganda —
For the dreadful irresponsibility of the Harper government. George Monbiot said that the triumvirate of Harper and Bush and Howard blocking action on climate represented a moral failure more culpable than that of Neville Chamberlain. I was variously skewered and attacked last spring for mentioning how Canada's international reputation had suffered, citing George Monibiot's statement to make the point.. (No need to revisit the various ways that quoting George Monbiot was viewed as some sort of political equivalent of a kamikaze mission.)
I repeat those words now, not because I thirst for abuse, but because in the light of day, following Canada's actions in Uganda, they seem an understatement.
— is the new headline that news aggregator Pierre Bourque put on it:
The switch is that May has gone from pointing out Monbiot's criticism to actively agreeing with it. I don't think it's unreasonable to argue that inaction on climate change will lead to deaths, both from an increased propensity toward natural disasters and from conflicts over dwindling resources — water, fertile land — in some parts of the globe. But to equate a bad policy with letting Nazi Germany rise largely unchecked in Europe in the hope that, as Churchill put it, Britain would be eaten last is … at the very least, not helpful.
Now the Tories have something they can talk about instead of trying to explain what Prime Minister Stephen Harper actually did in Uganda, which may or may not have been smart but certainly doesn't look good on the face of it. I expect they're quite pleased.
Update: Welcome, Bourque readers! Lest anyone think I have it in for Elizabeth May, take a look at a column I wrote on her last January, specifically admiring her skill with words and nuanced thought:
Consider the Green leader's understanding of the assignment that sent Canadian troops to Afghanistan in the winter of 2002. It was, she said, "a mission to help [President Hamid] Karzai and the people of Afghanistan build a liveable civil society and a democracy, in the wake of many wars."
That certainly meant shooting bad guys, May said: "The Taliban have to be removed. The Taliban insurgency, you can't have them rebuild and regroup and constantly move back into Afghanistan, otherwise none of the efforts … are going to make much sense."
This sounds like neither anti-Americanism nor reflexive peacenik-ery to me. It sounds like thinking that's straight down the mainstream of Canadian opinion in 2007.
Above all, it sounds like the thinking of someone who knows that running a country is hard, a continual exercise in moral complexity and compromise, and isn't about to pretend otherwise. It sounds like, at last, we have a party leader who's determined to treat voters with respect.
I can't believe the May wrote what she did yesterday without knowing exactly what she was doing.

Sheffield United Under 18s had to come from behind in the final 20 minutes of their FA Youth Cup match at home to AFC Wimbledon in order to progress to the fourth round.
First Half Replay · Second Half Replay · Highlights
Two goals from striker Daniel Jebbison within 12 minutes of coming on turned the game on its head in front of the Bramall Lane crowd, meaning the Blades now face a home game against Fulham when the competition kicks off again in the new year.
It should never have been as nervy as it was given the hosts dominated large spells of the game, but the visitors defended well and were always a danger on the counter attack.
The Blades largely dominated the opening exchanges, moving the ball well and forcing a succession of corners without ever really testing Matthew Cox in goal.
After 20 minutes of dominance, the game settled as AFC Wimbledon enjoyed a few half chances on the break, but United saw two big chances come and go as first Sam Ackroyd just couldn't stretch to get on the end of Leo Gaxha's cross before Nickseon Gomis headed Zak Brunt's dinked cross over the bar.
Andre Brooks was introduced for the injured Frankie Maguire at the break as United looked to keep up the momentum, but it was the visitors who struck first just inside the hour mark when Dylan Adjei-Hersey tapped home after Sam Kelly had pushed away an initial effort.
It left the Blades with a mountain to climb and only half an hour in which to do it, but the introduction of Jebbison soon after changed the game.
Just two minutes after coming on, the striker's first touch saw him sweep home a great cross from the right from Brunt to level the scores at 1-1.
With momentum now back behind the hosts, Jebbison doubled his tally with ten minutes to go, running onto Brooks's dinked ball over the top and slamming home via the hands of the goalkeeper.
With five added minutes to come, the Blades managed the game well, keeping possession for the majority of the extra time added and seeing the game out to book their spot in the fourth round.
Blades: S. Kelly, To. Williams, Boyes, Neal, Gordon, Gomis, J. Kelly, Maguire, Ackroyd (Jebbison 68), Brunt, Gaxha (Hackford 89).
Unused: Chapman, Cullinan, Viggars, Seriki.

Plot: Three female college students take a detour from their partying, enticed by a beautiful European woman who promises seclusion, safety and maybe even romance. What they get is a living hell where they are sold to the highest bidder whose fondest wish is to kill them slowly. Hostel: Part II also follows two American men who, on the flip side of the coin, are willing to pay to join an exclusive club where a life will end at their hands… (from IMDb).
Check out my review of Hostel (2005) to get in the right mood!
Vanessa's Review.
I love the Hostel franchise yet I am not a massive fan of purposeful gore. I am very much narrative and story driven. Being a horror enthusiast, there are few movies I watch that nail the latter. This franchise is one of them.
To fully appreciate the detail Roth covers during the three films, you really need to watch them in order. They have characters, themes, and details which overlap. My favorite of the series is the original. This is simply due to the final sequence. It maintains the element of surprise.
Hostel II begins with a small sequence set around a previous character. It then launched into a new scenario featuring three women. Their characters aren't completely stereotypical for horror, but they do include types. The appeal of the original for me was the likability of the central cast. This one not so much.
Lauren, Lorna, and Whitney are ok but none of this trio really grew on me like in the previous or third installment. There was also a little inconsistency in the treatment of the women and their ability to look out for one another. Lorna is so over-the-top vulnerable, it was slightly jarring that after enabling her to drink alcohol, they left her to look after her own decisions. Someone like Whitney is the person that Lauren decides is worthy of chaperoning.
Despite some minor plot devices being a little dumb, the overall premise was amazing. It becomes very apparent that 'the hunting club' briefly glossed over in the first movie is much larger than anticipated. A small town in Slovakia becomes a massive place of extreme conspiracy. Hostel II turns the tension way down yet there is still a decent amount of edge to propel it into an enjoyable ride. It becomes a scene where we know what is happening but the characters are completely clueless. As viewers, we are putting the pieces together while waiting to see where it will all eventuate.
And then there are the antagonists. My favorite part of the ensemble that is Hostel II. Todd and Stuart are excellently written and they become a familiar highlight in comparison to the first film. That element of surprise creeps back in with them. Where the compelling personalities of the girls are lacking, they are made up for with these two. They aren't the seedy assholes typical of the other killers in these films. They have depth and more importantly, they were really interesting.
Some fans don't venture into the 'torture porn' side of this genre, yet somehow Hostel II is one of my favorite franchises. Horror is a genre that is sometimes stale when it comes to creative plots, logical sequences and kill scenes that cause non-horror loving movie fans to sit in judgment. I watched part two of this series again to write this review. It was a reminder of just how great Eli did with this. Then I watched the third installment again too. I just wish he'd made a couple more.
I give Hostel II 4 hunting club tattoos out of 5.
Jimmy's review.
In 2005 Eli Roth unleashed a brutal leviathan of horror on the unsuspecting movieogers used to jump scares and tawdry "haunted" flicks. Despite some outcry and the film being banned in several markets it went on to gross a pretty penny. Most of the backlash which resulted in the ugly (I hate it) term, Torture Porn came from fair weather "theater" horror fans sanitized by good but without edge films like The Others and it's many clones. Eli made a good movie which bothered folks because not only was it horrific in nature (average citizens bidding for the right to torture and kill) but very possibly a reality.
Two years later Roth tried to replicate his success and while the numbers dwindled in comparison to the first film, he succeeded. Whereas the original was uneven and tentative, part II rectified everything in a psuedo violent tour-de-force that set the horror world on it's head. By picking up where the first film left off and adding a trio of female protagonists (victims), Roth upped the ante and final realized his original vision.
The acting here is above average for this foray and right where it needs to be. Laura German is a standout as Beth whose trials, excursions and finally triumph is a wonder to behold. This film will not appeal to all but I believe both films are cautionary tales that SHOULD be seen if for nothing else to confirm a golden rule…never stray from the beaten path in a foreign country. Similar ground was mined from the almost equally entertaining, TURISTAS.
But despite the blood and sex and death and torture and mutilation is it any good? Actually the answer is a resounding yes. Like the disturbing DEVIL'S REJECTS, H2 employs elements that COULD be shock tactics and controvery pieces but wraps and presents them with good production, great pacing and a really immersive storyline. At times the proceedings transcend the subject matter by horrifying you in other ways. Near the beginning when multiple persons are shown bidding via phone or computer to kill and maim, their matter of fact approach and almost non-chalant mannerisms are chilling. The old man bidding while his grandchild unaware on the Carousel and montage of all the other ordinary citizens (creeps) is one of the chilling and scariest scenes ever in it's matter of fact presentation. A statement that this happens and it's, easy for some.
Final Analysis:
A rip-roaring, ultra-violent excursion into depravity that includes elements of extreme dread and of course buckets of gore and blood but also serves as a chilling reminder of the cold, evil that resides in the human heart. Entertaining as it is disturbing. Evil DOES exist, Eli is simply reminding us.
4/5 stars (imbedded into flesh!)
Luca's review.
There are aspects I love about this sequel, some ideas that I found interesting and a few concepts I consider iffy or just plain stupid.
Let's start from the positives. Eli Roth decided to focus more on the shady organisation, making this movie not just richer – plot-wise – than the original, but also expanding upon the Hostel universe and making Part II very much necessary. Also, Stuart and Todd (the two Americans we follow closely) are very enthralling characters, intensely and effectively portrayed by Roger Bart and Richard Burgi. One is a psycho, a man with no apparent regard for human life; the other is a more subdued, insecure character. However, a switch in their personalities is one of my biggest issue with the movie – more on that later.
Secondly, I love the cameos and the references the Bostonian filmmaker utilised in this movie. For example, the initial sequence set on a train from Rome to Slovakia pays homage to the Italian rape and revenge flick Night Train Murders (1975); in the place where rich people torture and kill naïve victims, we get to see that one of the assholes is played by Ruggero Deodato (Cannibal Holocaust) who portraits, of course, a cannibal! We also get to take a quick glance at some amusing Tarantino's references.
Yet, this is the first time Eli Roth could rely on a bigger budget: Hostel: Part II looks much neater and more polished than Roth's previous works, featuring great cinematography, awesome locations and set design, original and never dull camera-work. The downside is that this sequel looks more cinematic than the original, in which rawness and nihilism made the viewing experience all the more terrifying and slightly disturbing.
Although I undoubtedly like and enjoy Hostel: Part II, my main issue with it is, in fact, the lack of realism. It's not just the way the movie looks, but also the way it sounds: during the iconic torture scene (the "bloodbath"), the sound the metal sickle makes on the woman's skin is so over-the-top and ridiculous. That specific scene, albeit enjoyable and great looking, is not nearly as effective as any of the torture in the first movie, because it's stylised and lacks realism and impact.
Then, I have a problem with the characters. The three main girls are one-dimensional and, unlike Paxton in the first movie, they don't develop as the film goes by. The final girl (Beth, played by Lauren German) is badass and likeable, but still doesn't look like a real person. Yet, at one point towards the end, Stuart goes all psycho and Todd chickens out: why does it happen? It's most luckily due to lazy writing and really made no sense, since there was no hint it could've happened.
The lazy writing is also responsible for the cringe-worthy ending: first, Beth buys her way out of the facility and, then, she kills one of the villains while pronouncing a corny one-liner that really made me go like: "oh no…".
Hostel: Part II 7/10 (3.5/5 on Jimmy and Vanessa's scale)

I'm having some trouble with the atmega8-16pu.
After a bit of trial and error I shortened my test program to:
int main(void) { int16_t Cnt = 0; DDRD = DDRB = 0xff; // Set to outputs. for(;;) { Cnt++; PORTD = Cnt; PORTB = Cnt >> 8; } }
This program just generates a bunch of sqare waves of different frequencies. The strange thing is that if I use the crystal oscillator (make fuses) then PD6 and PD7 are high impedance (Checked wit a scope). If I then change the fuses back to default (make fuses8default) then the square waves on PD6 and PD7 re-appear. All other outputs on PORTD and PORTB have the expected waveforms, regardless of fuse settings.
avrdude -p $(MCU) -c usbasp -i30 -Uhfuse:w:0xc7:m -Ulfuse:w:0xff:m
avrdude -p $(MCU) -c usbasp -i30 -Uhfuse:w:0xd9:m -Ulfuse:w:0xe1:m
There are no loads on the outputs and both the crystal oscillator (11.0592MHz and 552kHz on PD0) and internal oscillator (1MHz, 49.9kHz on PD0) works as expected.
The only alternative uses for PD6 and PD7 are for the analog comparator and I cannot find any reference in the latest datasheet (downloaded a fresh copy today) of a possible cause for this behavior.
Does anybody have a hint of how to solve this?

We had a visit today from 20 pupils (P6s and P7s) from a nearby primary school. They are doing a renewables project, so they came to look at both the wind turbine and the wood chip boiler. It was great to have a chance to show them round. We had arranged a wood chip delivery which gave us a chance to show off the electric sliding roof on the fuel store. And now that the wind has remembered how to blow, the turbine was actually generating when they were here. Lots of notebooks and pens, and an impressive amount of note taking! And this being Mull and island education being so good, they were going to stop off at Calgary beach to eat their packed lunches on the way back to school. What a life.
On the farm, life goes on - still a couple of cows to calve - considering we only have 12 cows, this has been a very slow calving period. The gathering is planned for next week. Spring cleaning cottages. Last minute maintenance. Farmer had to do a bit of ditching down by the old boathouse - just near this fantastic rock.
Spring equinox approaching in a few days. Very low tides, and matching high tides. Strong winds forecast. The season is finally changing. Hooded crows seem to be paired up everywhere you look. Dozens of frogs playing that game of 'chicken' - frozen in my headlights driving home in the dark. The little lochan next to Duill and Shian has clouds of spawn in the shallows. I haven't seen a wild primrose yet, and the snow drops in the garden around the farm house are still flowering - they seem to have enjoyed the prolonged cold this winter. Watched a raven in our neighbours field, on the ground, pulling at something I couldn't see, its heavy head and beak almost animal-like as it turned to look back at me.
A feral black cat prowling the farm yard at the moment and upsetting the house cat. Bold as brass, sitting out in the grass as Farmer went out to start his day this morning. I haven't seen a hare this week but last week disturbed one ahead of us on a walk near the Cruachan - this habitat is not high enough for the resident hares to need to turn completely white, but we do see some funny half white ones every now and then. There is more information on hares on Prasad's blog. And finally Treshnish joined Facebook and has its own Page.

Wolves play an important role in ecosystem health. When re-introduced into forests like Yellowstone, they helped control elk/deer populations and increased streamside vegetation. Our project aims to non-invasively identify rare and elusive Mexican wolves using their "scent", to get more accurate population count and estimates of age and gender structure. This is critical for informing forest restoration efforts in the Southwest. Backers will be rewarded with seeing the science, as it unfolds!

Yep, I've got a 10X. Definitely helped me in the beginning, but haven't used it lately since when I leave the house they cut effortlessly. Maybe it's time to start looking into it again.
I have a Salt 2 SE as well as an old Endura SE in G2. I do pretty well with those, especially H1 steel.

My AEB-L Urban is also way off. The next on my reprofiling list.Cambertree wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 9:28 pmRick, what angle are you using to touch up your edges? If it's 20 degrees, it's likely you're slightly microbevelling the edge. Most PE Spyderco edges are around 17 degrees, at least that is what I believe they aim for.
It's a clever edge angle to use, as 15dps can be too acute for the average (abusive) user. It also means that if you go to resharpen a dull factory edge on the 20dps Sharpmaker setting you get results fairly quickly, because of the smaller contact area.
And likewise, if afi's want to reprofile to 15dps, it's much quicker than starting off with a 20dps factory edge.
(There's many exceptions of course - my AEB-L Urban came with a more obtuse edge than the 20dps Sharpmaker setting, for example.)
Also, regarding edge dulling at very high sharpness levels to say 'working sharp', all steels drop off relatively quickly. The large differences tend to show up more when the edge is dropping down from 'working sharp' to dull.
I agree. I think that's why I'll start with the BD1N Para 3. Easy to sharpen, though I know will dull quickly.SF Native wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 9:41 pmYou might even be able to strop these back to a decent edge. Don't know.
If you really want to know what these can do...
Use one everyday until it's dull and can't do its job. I suggest having a back up to keep your job. Then try the next one. See how many days until the working edge is gone.some will last longer than others. Might be very educational.
Of course there is no defenition of dull. It's a bit of a gray area. And then you need to sharpen from dull, which is a chore. Maybe not worth it to you. You see to have a good system that keeps you working with fresh edges.
Great advice above.Vivi wrote: ↑Tue Oct 01, 2019 9:11 pm
If I were you I'd do the same comparison again, except go a week instead of a day.
Sharpen them all up to your usual level, then carry one knife for a full week with no touch-ups at all.
Compare how well they each cut at the end. And let us know!
If you really want to put on your nerd hat, you could do the above twice. Once with a high polish edge on each knife, then again with a low grit edge.

I have a friend of mine who was a head chef at one of the top resorts here in Las Vegas. A few years ago he decided he had enough of the corporate way of life. He moved into a small beach house in Pacific Beach in San Diego and opened up a gourmet food truck. I admire him a lot, not only for chasing his dreams but for actually attaining his dream. We were discussing his venture when he told me, "It's nothing like the food truck that you see on reality TV. People think what they see on reality TV shows is real and nothing could be further from reality."
I can completely relate. I have a similar problem. Many home buyers believe that what a certain home inspector (Holmes on Homes) does on reality TV is what they can expect when they have their home inspection performed. What they don't make clear on TV is that Mr. Holmes performs intrusive / destructive investigations.
He performs these services for the home buyer who has given him permission to make holes in the walls and ceilings, tear off siding, etc… A Real Estate home inspection is a non-destructive, visual inspection. Here, in Las Vegas, home inspectors are forbidden- by law from damaging any surface in the conduct of their inspections. Could you imaging a Real Estate home inspector walking into a home and start tearing out sections of the wall? The Seller would come unglued!
There are two types of defects that exist in homes: patent defects and latent defects. Patent defects are visible, latent defects are those defects that are hidden from view. The scope of service for a Real Estate home inspector excludes any potential latent defects that may exist. It is beyond the Real Estate Inspector's ability to discover latent defects. Advanced equipment such as infrared thermal imaging can increase the potential for a diligent inspector to discover latent issues but it cannot be guaranteed.
When a home buyer believes that their Real Estate inspector should find everything the inspector on TV would find it creates an unrealistic expectation where disappointment is sure to follow. More than just causing disappointment an unrealistic expectation of the home buyer can wreak havoc on a real estate transaction and cause a buyer to walk away from a home that they loved enough to submit an offer to purchase.
It behooves real estate agents to take the time to sit down with their home buyers and discuss the scope of the inspection and the differences between deferred maintenance issues and issues of greater significance. The buyer should be aware of the limitations involved and know what is included in the inspection and (equally as important) what is not reviewed in the scope of the service.
Setting realistic expectations in the home buyer will not only benefit the home buyer but all other parties to the transaction.

Wilson: Modern Slavery Strategy must be future proofed
The SDLP Candidate for the Castle DEA commented:
"There are currently more slaves in the world now than in any time in history. It is the most abhorrent of crime to strip someone of the most fundamental human right, the right to freedom, and we all have a duty to tackle modern slavery where and when we see it.
"Though this strategy is welcome, it is vital we see a much more robust longer term plan to overcome this issue.
"The recognised need for partnership and collaboration in the strategy is crucial in turning the curve on this issue; albeit fundamentally a justice issue, it is also an education and health issue.
"Every day across these islands, people are beaten, raped, exploited and abused. We must all do what we can, at both a statutory and community level to help protect victims and prevent further trafficking."

WASHINGTON, March 1, 2015 − Fashion Police host Giuliana Rancic's faux pas at the Oscars has many teased off, including Fashion Police co-host Kelly Osborne and Zendaya. Osborne has since quit the show.
"Something I said last night crossed the line," Rancic said, after noting that the show "pokes fun at celebrities in good spirit."
The line crosser? After noting the heaviness of Zendaya's hairstyle in comparison to her recent pixie cut, she'd continued: "I feel like she smells like patchouli oil or weed. Maybe weed."
Zendaya shot back, saying,
"There is a fine line between what is funny and disrespectful…To say that an 18-year-old woman with locks must smell of patchouli oil or 'weed' is not only a large stereotype but outrageously offensive. I don't usually feel the need to respond to negative things, but certain remarks cannot go unchecked."
I am so very sorry for the comments that I make
(although some women's hair cannot be combed except by rake.)
The things I say are pleasantries, not meant to cause dismay
(But if Charlize is truly blonde then I am Tina Fey!)
Please style your hair in any form that pleases you, I beg.
(And take it to the dry cleaners for treatment, my dear Meg.)
Some women wear their hair like it's a spiky crown of thorns.
(And others tease it high so they can hide their devil horns.)
Sweet Hillary has gotten hers both bobbed and slightly sheared
(Either way it shows off that amazing Clinton beard.)
I love the way Michelle is wearing hers, so distingue.
(A wig could do her wonders if she wore it ev'ry day.)

Norfolk farmers urged to 'raise their game' and promote positive PR messages
PUBLISHED: 11:47 21 January 2019 | UPDATED: 13:33 21 January 2019
Jacob Filby
A passionate advocate of quality Norfolk food production told Stalham Farmers' Club that the agricultural industry needs to raise its game in terms of promoting itself.
The success story of Britain's food producers must be heard loud and clear, said Sophie Bambridge of B & C Farming, which grows more than 315 hectares of seed and ware potatoes from its base at Marsham, near Aylsham.
And it is absolutely essential as social media has become so successful at influencing younger consumers and especially changing attitudes to food and consumption, she told 70 club members and guests including a dozen members of North Walsham Young Farmers' Club.
Speaking on the theme of "Meeting tomorrow's challenges today," Miss Bambridge said there were great opportunities to feed a growing domestic market, with one example being the increasing consumption of vegan foods.
While some estimates suggest that vegans account for about 0.06 of the population, some vegan food products were bought by as many as 16pc of the population, she said.
As social media influenced attitudes, especially towards eating meat, many consumers were reducing consumption. This trend towards "flexitarian" diets has already seen some consumers eat meat one day and then maybe meat-free, vegetarian or vegan another day, she said.
Miss Bambridge argued that farmers and food producers needed to be more "pro-active" and promote positive messages to consumers – even suggesting Stalham's president and top potato grower Thomas Love could help by having a presence on Instagram.
After working for about seven years for Barfoots, one of the country's leading growers and suppliers of corn on the cob, sweetcorn and other exotic crops, she returned to her native Norfolk because her father, Tony, wanted to recruit a technical manager for the expanding business.
Coming into an established business about two and a half years ago had been a challenge, she said, but she had brought new disciplines and ideas into the business, which now farms about 1,450ha of cereals, sugar beet, peas, beans and maize, plus potatoes.
She was presented with a copy of Alec Douet's history on Norfolk agriculture, a book named "Breaking New Ground", by the club and was thanked by Sarah Norman of North Walsham YFC.

Tennis great accused of giving false evidence in Mitchell trial
Federation Cup great Janet Young has been accused by lawyers for Harold Mitchell of giving false evidence in the trial against the famed adman who has been accused by the corporate watchdog of inappropriately favouring Seven West Media during the 2013 negotiations for the broadcast rights to the Australian Open.
In a heated cross examination at the Federal Court on Monday, Dr Young - who sat on the board of Tennis Australia alongside Mr Mitchell - denied she had made up her evidence due to "animus" towards Mr Mitchell.
The accusation was made during the civil penalty proceedings launched by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) against Mr Mitchell and fellow former Tennis Australia director Steven Healy alleging they acted inappropriately by helping Seven to secure the tennis rights over other potential bidders.
During Monday's hearing, Dr Young - who won three tennis doubles titles alongside partner Evonne Goolagong Cawley - was challenged by Mr Mitchell's counsel Matthew Collins, QC, over what Dr Collins alleged were inconsistencies in her evidence.
"Mr Mitchell said to the board that he considered the current offer to be reasonable in the current economic environment but that he and (then Tennis Australia chief) Mr Wood would continue to work on the matter and come back to the board in due course?" Dr Collins asked.
Dr Young responded: "Yes."
Dr Collins then took Dr Young to her witness statement where she had alleged Mr Mitchell had reminded the board to accept the offer at that meeting.
"I just want to suggest to you that that's not quite right. That what happened was Mr Mitchell said he considered the offer was reasonable in the circumstances but that he and Mr Wood would continue to work on the matter and come back to the board in due course?"
Dr Young replied simply: "No."
Dr Collins sought again to get Dr Young to agree that Mr Mitchell had not insisted Tennis Australia sign the Seven deal at the December board meeting but Dr Young stood firm.
"He recommended that we accept that offer, and Mr Healy suggested that that was a very low increase."
Dr Collins shot back accusing Dr Young of lying to the court.
"Dr Young, I suggest to you that that evidence is false, and as you sit in the witness box you very well know that that evidence is false."
Dr Young responded: "No".
Dr Collins then asked Dr Young: "You've given that false evidence because of animus that you hold towards Mr Mitchell?"
Again, Dr Young denied the allegation with a simple: "No".
ASIC is seeking fines and disqualification orders against Mr Mitchell and Mr Healy. Both are defending the case.
The case continues.

Fox Gordon By George Cabernet Sauvignon Tempranillo blend is a red wine that is sure to delight you. This wine is full of ripe blackcurrant and liquorice flavours with a herbaceous and earthy background. It's a real delight when served with vel or steak and kidney pie but be careful as at 14% it can creep up on you.
"There are no surprises with our wines. You know exactly what you're getting - top quality Barossa and Adelaide Hills reds and whites," says Fox Gordon's winemaker Tash Mooney. And she's spot on. These are contemporary and premium wines which are all made using the Fox Gordon philosophy of low input and low yield to give maximum flavour and preserve the inherent qualities of fruit and site. "If the fruit speaks for itself, the winemaker's job is much simpler," says Tash.
The Cabernet vines are 23 years old and the Tempranillo vines are 13 years old. Good Cabernet is difficult to find in the Barossa, however, Fox Gordon has sourced four brilliant sites in the last 20 years and this comes from one of them.
The By George is characterised by two things. Firstly, the fruit was co-fermented for ten days and then racked to tank for two weeks of lees work, to build texture and finish ferment. Secondly, large format, older barrels were used, which gives perfect oak character to the wine while still keeping the fruit fresh. 10% went into new French oak barrels.
The Fox Gordon By George Cabernet Tempranillo with it's fragrant red summer fruits and notes of wild herbs are first noticeable followed by the clean, ripe nuances ofjuicy blackcurrants, red liquorice with an earthy hint. Lovely fine tannins thanks to the Cabernet highlighted by the herbal notes from the cool climate Tempranillo.

Icon Agency was appointed by Tomofun to create a strategic and creative PR campaign for the Australian launch of the Furbo Dog Camera – the first dog camera designed with an interactive treat tossing system, to allow parents and pups to play from anywhere.
The launch campaign ran from April to June 2018, targeting only earned media which resulted in a staggering 38 pieces of targeted editorial and 26 posts by top-tier Australian social media influencers.
Crowdfunding a best-selling pet camera
The Furbo Dog Camera was creating when Co-founders Maggie Cheung and Victor Chang realised that the hardest part of their day was having to leave their dogs home alone while they were at work.
And so, began the journey of creating the Furbo Dog Camera!
Through a hugely successful crowdfunding campaign and an appearance on the Ellen Show, the Furbo Dog Camera was crowned the #1 best-selling pet camera on Amazon in the US.
Amplifying a U.S. launch in the Australian market
After a hugely successful U.S launch, Icon was trusted with creating a robust PR and Influencer campaign to launch the Furbo Dog Camera into the Australian market through only earned media.
Generating buzz via traditional media & social influencers
Australians are avid dog lovers with 60% of Australian households owning a pet. To tap into these audiences Icon created a strategy that combines high voltage TV and metro media coverage with social media community building to generate buzz, brand awareness and sales.
Icon used a strategic product seeding and reviews timeline to generate buzz around the launch along with our great relationships with top-tier media and influencers. This allowed us to build a campaign that only contained earned/free media and influencer opportunities.
We engaged key social media influencers to build an engaged and loyal audience around the brand. These influencers – lifestyle bloggers with dogs, celebrities with dogs and dog influencers – were used at key points of the PR program to further activate online awareness and demand.
68+ million reach in top-tier news and technology publications
The three-month campaign generated 38 pieces of editorial in top-tier news, lifestyle and technology publications, having an estimated reach of over 68 million. Through product seeding to Instagram, Facebook and YouTube influencers, another 4 million people were reached, sharing their fun experiences with the Furbo Dog Camera!
