The Arab man was tackled to the floor by officers who mistook him for a member of ISIS.
Police were responding to information from a receptionist at the hotel he was staying at in Ohio, USA, that businessman Ahmed Al-Menhali had links to the terror group.
But the traveller was reportedly only in the US seeking medical help for several health conditions.
Officers have since apologised to the man who they handcuffed and pinned to the ground after the tip-off.
"The male did not, in fact, make any statements related to ISIS," police said.
In the footage – caught on a police body camera – cops appear to tackle Al-Menhali, who is dressed in traditional Arabic clothing.
Officers approached him with guns drawn, according to a police statement.
Bryan Jensen, the Mayor of Avon, Ohio, said: "We certainly feel bad about the whole situation.
"It's unfortunate that it took place."
He added: "I think for us it's a good educational tool moving forward and will hopefully strengthen our relationship.
"We feel like he did everything right and if it wasn't for his reactions and the things that happened, I think the outcome could have been much worse and it could have been tragic."
The arrest has become an international incident and the United Arab Emirates has demanded an apology for the "abusive treatment" of one of their citizens.
The UAE are now warning people travelling abroad not to wear traditional garments.

Pappinbarra and Gloucester cattle producer Will Bush says authorities need to start thinking about rain erosion
Cattle farmer Will Bush knows more than a few things about the lay of the land.
The Pappinbarra and Gloucester cattle producer is calling on government agencies to consider damming parched creeks before they are eroded by future rain events.
"Our creeks are going to be ripped apart if we have a large storm because all the banks have been dug up from cattle," he said.
"If you have an unrestricted flow of water it will rip trees out and with a fire going through as well you could lose a lot more.
"It's not a good option to leave it because that process is undercutting land all the time, you lose that land for farming."
Significant rains could pour soil and bushfire ash into waterways, according to Mr Bush.
High risk areas for poor water quality and associated fish deaths are being identified by the NSW Department of Primary Industries.
"Bushfires have resulted in the loss of vegetation, particularly ground cover and riverbank vegetation that stops rainfall carrying soils to waterways," said a NSW DPI spokesperson.
"Heavy rainfall can carry soils, ash and organic matter into rivers and creeks, resulting in poor water quality and low dissolved oxygen conditions.
"This can have negative impacts on aquatic environments, drinking water quality and agricultural industries.
"Increased water temperatures and low flows can also trigger greater breakdown of organic matter in waterways by bacteria, which can also reduce oxygen levels in the water.
"Fish deaths are a common result of this sudden depletion of dissolved oxygen. Historical, large scale fish kills have occurred in NSW and Victoria after extensive bushfires."
The Department has ongoing concerns for further fish deaths statewide as dry and very low flow conditions persist, said the NSW DPI spokesperson.

Newcastle's dream in tatters
Sporting Lisbon 4 Newcastle United 1 (Sporting win 4-2 on agg)
BANISHED from the first-team squad for daring to criticise Newcastle United's football this season, Laurent Robert's contention that the club have regressed over the past 12 months was proved all too accurate last night. Having fallen at the semi-final stage of the Uefa Cup last May, Newcastle have now stumbled in the previous round. Whether the France winger will feel vindicated is another matter.
Newcastle were never insipid against Sporting Lisbon, as they had been in Marseilles, but a desperate run of injuries and a ceaseless courting of painful headlines may have caught up with them. They will need to raise bowed heads and battered bodies before Sunday's FA Cup semi-final against Manchester United.
It will not be easy. By the end of a disheartening

More than half of the A-League's players will come off contract in just over two months – and they are sweating on their futures as clubs look to slash costs, trim numbers and tighten their belts just to survive.
The FFA's decision to postpone the competition was inevitable, but it leaves a huge number of players – more than 120 – whose current deals end on May 31 in limbo, not knowing if they have a future in the sport or not.
The foreign stars – men such as Melbourne Victory's Ola Toivonen, Melbourne City's Craig Noone, Markel Sussaeta and Florin Berenguer and Western United's Alessandro Diamanti – can all be asked by their clubs to remain in Australia as long as their wages are being paid while their contract exists.
Toivonen has already expressed his wish to return to Sweden, while Western star Diamanti is out of contract at season's end. He had indicated he wanted to stay in Australia, but that was before the coronavirus pandemic wrought havoc around the planet and plunged his native Italy into crisis.
The FFA has said, however unlikely the prospect is, that they will look to try to restart the competition towards the end of April, which makes it more likely that overseas players will be asked to remain in Australia until the league is officially shut down for good.
Most foreigners are players who have made their money in the big leagues of Europe earlier in their footballing lives and are reaching the end of their careers.
Any curtailment to their careers will not be as grievous as it is to younger out-of-contract Australian players who will not have been on large pay packets for the bulk of their time in the A-League, where the average wage is $130,000 to $140,000 a year.
That average is distorted by the big-money marquee deals for the likes of Diamanti and Panagiotis Kone at Western, Socceroo frontman Jamie Maclaren (who is on a multi-year deal) at Melbourne City, and Toivonen at Victory.
"We have 120 players or more coming off contract on May 31. Usually 62 per cent of our workforce starts any given season coming off contract at the end of it," said Professional Footballers Association boss John Didulica.
"It's an incredibly challenging period for these footballers and W-League players wondering if the league can reactivate next season."
If the league can start up again in October, there is no certainty that current players will be first in line for jobs, Didulica said.
"It's going to need building up. It's going to need the same number of players, but will clubs cut back on the number of players they sign? Will they go for younger, cheaper replacements?
"Opportunities in Asia, where many players have been able to go when they are finished in the A-League, will be limited and the NPL competitors are shut down.
"There's just no cushion for them."
Didulica said that foreign players are in a difficult position
"Players with contracts beyond that period (May 31) will have valid work visas and can stay.
''In the event that contracts elapse or are terminated by mutual consent, they will be able to return to their home countries subject to border controls there. If they get to the end of their contracts (they) get a period of around 21 days to finalise their affairs.
"That's over two months away though. How quickly this is moving, who knows what is going to happen? We are assuming all players will have their contracts honoured."
Didulica believes that sports – collectively and individually – are an industry responsible for thousands of jobs and are just as entitled as other major employment groups to seek government assistance.
"Whether that's a stimulus, assistance or just a safety net can be discussed," he said.
"It can be through a cash injection, but it can also be other ways. The government has got a broadcaster that it owns, the ABC, and soccer does want a free-to-air partner. Maybe showing games is a means by which the government can support the sport without just giving money. There are a whole series of initiatives it can look at."
There is plenty of speculation that the broadcaster Foxtel might use the league shutdown to walk away from the game, but Didulica said that would be short-sighted.
"To use this as an opportunity to walk away completely in the knowledge that the A-League will come back would to be too difficult to comprehend," he said.
"You can question that while there might be a need for an adjustment (cut in rights fee) for loss of subscription fees and viewers at the moment, it would be breathtaking if they walked away."

Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi and PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto had already arrived separately in the Kashmir capital on Sunday night to celebrate Eid Al-Adha and as a show of support to the Kashmiri people.The decision to dedicate Independence Day to the Kashmiris and their "just struggle for their right of self-determination" was made during a National Security Committee (NSC) meeting, two days after Indian-administered Kashmir was stripped of its autonomous status by the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party in India.It was also decided that August 15, India's day of independence, will be observed as Black Day in protest against the ongoing Indian atrocities, blatant human rights violations and imposition of curfew in the Indian-administered Kashmir.Meanwhile, Independence Day celebrations across the country were in full swing on Tuesday, also the second day of Eid al-Adha.The government has introduced a special logo for Independence Day which has been created to express solidarity with people of Kashmir. It is based on the "Kashmir banega Pakistan" theme, with the word 'Kashmir', written in red, representing sacrifices rendered during the struggle for freedom by the Kashmiris.Vendors have set up stalls of buntings, national flags, banners, badges and pictures of national heroes who struggled tirelessly to achieve a common goal for Muslims of South Asia.Special dresses for boys and girls made of green and white colours representing the two colours of the national flag are also on sale in some cities.Different organisations are also arranging seminars, mushaira, sports events, as well as national song and speech competitions in this regard.The government has also made arrangements to illuminate important national buildings and monuments throughout the country. The provincial and district governments as well as educational institutions and art councils throughout the country have also planned a series of events in connection with Independence Day.

Instagram is a visual mobile app, allowing its users to post photos and videos to connect with people all over the world.
With over 1 billion monthly users it's no wonder that businesses are jumping on board and creating pages to connect with new and existing customers.
Creating a page is an awesome first step – but there is a lot that goes into running pages to their full potential!
Keep reading to get our Instagram tips and tricks.
Getting Started
Picking the right username
Selecting the right name for your café's Instagram is critical. If your café has a relatively short name, using the city of your café can be effective, particularly in small cities. This will provide you with more exposure when people look up the city your business will be much easier to find. For example, Napoli is an Adelaide based Italian restaurant which goes by the handle @napoliadelaidepizza. Short, sweet and descriptive!
If your businesses name is on the longer side, you'll need to get creative by picking a name that will be easier for customers to type and search for. If your name is too long and difficult to find, you are at risk of losing a potential follower or client!
The content of your Instagram is the most important part of your account. There's no point of having a huge number of photos if they're not going to attract and engage customers.
A recent survey revealed that 75% of people purchase things because they saw it on social media. This means that it is absolutely crucial that your content is of high quality, engaging and is consistent with your brand identity.
When you take your own photos, natural lighting is your best friend! Photo backgrounds should also look clean. There are various phone apps, such as Lightroom, and Afterlight which you can use to edit your photos to get them looking extra crisp for your profile.
Another great and easy way to generate content is by reposting client's photos or inspirational photos found on other similar pages. This can create relationships with clients, making them feel appreciated and increasing their likeliness to return. However, it is important to credit the person who's photo you repost, which can be done by tagging the account with their username. For example, @realfalafelaustralia regularly reposts clients photos as seen below.
Moving Forward
Story highlights
One of Instagram's latest features are story highlights. Story highlights are past stories you have made that you can pin on your profile, and can be removed or added whenever you want. For hospitality businesses, this can be particularly good for attaching the menu or any promotions you have going on at the moment, in a less formal manner. Good story highlights can both brighten up your profile and can provide more value for people that stumble upon your profile, thus making them more likely to follow and engage with you.
Consistent posting
Posting regularly and consistently is important, particularly when you're first starting your account. Generally, at least posting once a day, or at the very least 5 times a week to ensure your followers are receiving maximum engagement with your company. However, once again, low quality content won't cut it, so make sure your photos are high quality, fun and engaging, even if it means doing that extra bit of work to get that perfect "gram" post. If posting every day is too challenging, try at least posting some story highlights for further engagement.
Engage with your followers
Engaging with people who follow you on Instagram is great for building relationships with clients, and thus encouraging them to visit or re-visit. This can also be good for fostering loyal customers. For example, replying to comments and messages, asking questions such as "would you prefer chocolate milkshakes or caramel milkshakes?" or what kind of specials they'd like to see can make customers feel more connected to the brand.
Hashtags in short are key words, which utilise the symbol "#" in front of the word. Hashtags are both searchable and clickable on social media. Using relevant hashtags are a great way to engage new potential followers and clients.
For example, @fairespresso is a local Adelaide café which has a large selection of vegan options. As a result, because veganism has become a very popular Instagram hashtag, they often attempt to make large variations using the word vegan.
Although Instagram allows up to 30 hashtags per post, too many hashtags can be overwhelming for users. Generally, up to 10 hashtags is a good amount.
Geotagging is the process of sharing the location a photo was taken at. Whether this photo be the food you ate, a selfie or your staff, tagging a location allows for Instagram users to search nearby businesses if they are in the location, and can make a place easier to search and find on Instagram.

Here is our 12ozProphet Photo of the Day. The 12oz team was hanging out with Flint and checking out some of his old negatives when we found this classic Futura 2000 four-arrow tag. Flint was one of the only graffiti writers in the 1970's who was also a serious photographer. Looking through his archives it was obvious that he's sitting on a treasure trove. Stay tuned for news about an upcoming 12ozProphet x Flint collaboration in the very near future.

The moment a product is too simple, it can be used for providing a one purpose simply. Yet, in the event the equal system is flexible simultaneously, then it may become troublesome for brand spanking new users with regards to learning. Drupal strives to mix all these types of contrary goals by providing the users the various tools that that they need to make content material management method on all their own, although still giving pre-built elements to help them to receive started. This is why, that can end up being termed as equally CMS (Content Managing System) and CMF (Content Management Framework). Thus, Drupal is normally strategy is as well viewed as a one give up solution with regards to content supervision. Content supervision systems resemble a model truck or a boat. Therefore, specific assumptions are made of the usage. However, Content Operations Frameworks give you only unprocessed trash. So, you should know a programming language, making for placing the uncooked material together. Drupal is similar to a Laico kit. Qualified and experiences developers help to make building disables in the form of various modules which have been vital for producing a website meeting the needs. Your websites can end up being anything right from a web store, a community networking internet site, a web log, or a reports web-site. In order to identify Drupal for the purpose of different content administration devices, let's have the example of a news website. You must post several news articles or blog posts on your web page. Likewise, you want the fact that the internet site of your webpage really should have five several segments having five hottest media. Aside from them, you also desire to include a blog website and put backlinks to the five hottest reports. In case you are utilizing a general cms, then to start with you need to use a special plug-in for handling news content and adding small burps on the internet site. Subsequently, you should also try to install some other plug-in designed for tracking the recent sites posts. Yet, when this comes to Drupal, you can quickly mix these kinds of two plug without troubling functionality. It is because the segments of Drupal do most such experditions in a normal procedure. So, you should consider applying it otherwise you company's content management system in order to acquire the benefits to the maximum and get paid more and more profit.

Vitamin D deficiency is common in cystic fibrosis. Vitamin D deficiency frequently persists despite aggressive treatment with ergocalciferol, a vitamin D preparation also known as vitamin D2. Cholecalciferol, a vitamin D preparation also known as vitamin D3,may work better to increase vitamin D levels.
Vitamin D is important for absorption of calcium from the diet and bone health. Vitamin D more recently has been found to play a role in regulating the normal inflammatory process. Since cystic fibrosis is a state of excessive inflammation, vitamin D may be playing a role in cystic fibrosis.
We hypothesize: cholecalciferol will work better to increase vitamin D levels in patients iwth cystic fibrosis and that it will have an effect on markers of inflammation.

The European Union and Brazil representing Mercosur (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay), are proposing the World Trade Organization agree to end agricultural export subsidies at a meeting next month. The proposal backers also include New Zealand.
The December ministerial meeting in Nairobi is at risk of having little to offer in terms of major trade agreements, but anyhow hope the WTO's 161 members will see it as a chance to chalk up a negotiating victory.
That in turn might help the stuttering momentum of global trade talks, which has prompted the United States and other countries to press ahead with regional deals such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
The proposal was circulated to WTO members on Monday and will be presented by Brazil and the EU at a WTO meeting on Wednesday, a South American diplomat said.
"It's a historic move for this organization because, 30 years ago, we decided to ban export subsidies for industrial products, and 30 years later, we are going to do the same for agriculture."
The proposal revives a previous plan that was rejected at the end of 2008, while aiming to overcome US objections that were the main stumbling block at the time, the diplomat said.
But, other potential opponents could be India, which uses export subsidies for sugar, and Switzerland, which gives subsidies under its chocolate law. Others may feel it doesn't go far enough.
The proposal would ban subsidies within 11 years and introduce new rules and transparency requirements for state trading enterprises, non-emergency food aid, and export credits, guarantees, and insurance.
The 11-year transition period is composed of three years for developed countries, an additional three years for developing countries, and a further five years for subsidies related to transport and marketing of crops. The 2008 draft had an initial five-year period for developed countries, making 13 years in total.
"Had [the 2008 proposal] gone through, the developed countries would already have banned export subsidies," the diplomat said.
Export credit repayment periods would be limited to six months, as in the 2008 version, but conditionally extended to nine months.
The United States had objected to changes to export credit rules because of the need to change US law, but the new proposal exploits the terms of a 2014 out-of-court settlement in a dispute between the United States and Brazil over cotton.
"They could multilateralize that... you don't need to change the law. That was precisely why we thought this was a fairly astute way in which you could get a compromise," the diplomat said.
I see a light at the end of the tunnel ...

Deconstructing Apache Tomcat JSP Upload Remote Code Execution (CVE-2017-12615)
Here at the Application and Threat Intelligence Research Center, we explore security threats to better understand how they work so we can replicate them for use with our BreakingPoint security test solution. Let's take a deeper look into the Apache Tomcat JSP Upload vulnerability, which allows attackers to upload arbitrary files to the Tomcat application server by using the HTTP PUT method. This vulnerability is due to the DefaultServlet readonly parameter being configured to false in conf/web.xml. When any request file's extension is .jsp or /.jspx, Tomcat will use DefaultServlet to handle it. By uploading a .JSP file to the Tomcat Application Server, an attacker can execute malicious code on the remote machine.
Vulnerability Reproduce
Set up Metasploit multi handler and use jsp_shel_reverse_tcp as the payload
Proof of Concept (POC)
This PoC will generate a JSP reverse tcp shell using msfvenom, and use an HTTP PUT method to upload it to the Tomcat server. Here, we use the /sh4.jsp/ in HTTP put request. Tomcat will create a JSP web shell called sh4.jsp in the server. After successfully uploaded the shell, use an HTTP GET request to get the jsp web shell file and get the reverse shell in Metasploit listener.
To provide valuable strikes to our customers, we offer this exploit in our Ixia BreakingPoint system. The strike will try to use an HTTP PUT method to upload a non-malicious jsp file to the Tomcat server. After running the strike, it will generate a pcap like this:
The strike uploads a JSP file with a random name. In this example, it is BvGhDVR.jsp. This strike is deployed in our upcoming ATI release.
Leverage Subscription Service to Stay Ahead of Attacks
The Ixia BreakingPoint Application and Threat Intelligence (ATI) Subscription provides bi-weekly updates of the latest application protocols and attacks for use with Ixia platforms.

I am a photo addict. I love taking photos and many times I do want to just do plain prints because once you print them what do you do with them? They usually end up in a drawer somewhere out of site. This seems like a waste of great pictures. Instead I have found a place to make absolutely fantastic and unique photo books for a reasonable price
Front Back
Photo books are a great way to spotlight your pictures. Many photo book site only offer photo books with plain covers but MailPix offers the option to personalize your front and back cover with your pictures with their Photo Cover Books! This is wonderful because then even when it is sitting on the coffee table or up on that shelf your pictures are still displayed. It also encourages people to pick it up and look at it.
MailPix had many different fonts and backgrounds to choose from when making the photo book. I even got to do something I have never been able to do on any other site and that was layer the pictures however I wanted. I could manipulate the page layouts more than I have ever been able to before. This was one of the most enjoyable experiences I have had creating a photo book.
I decided to make my picture book with the pictures from my kids first trip to the snow this winter. With 20 pages to fill I was able to get all the pictures I wanted in the book. The shipping was super quick too which please me because I am very impatient when waiting for something.
I opened the box it came in an was so excited at what I saw. The print quality was amazing and I was excited to see how well it came out, especially the cover. It was so cool to see what I had done with this neat site. It is easily my favorite photo book I have ever made.
Find MailPix on Facebook, Twitter, & YouTube.

SAN ANTONIO -- Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni is tipping Mexico to be a world power in the near future and heaped praise on Gerardo "Tata" Martino ahead of the friendly between the two at the Alamodome.
Mexico comes into the game off the back of a comfortable 3-0 win over the United States last Friday, while Argentina drew 0-0 against Chile the day before.
"We're taking on a team that has quality and that, for me, will be soon be one of the best," said Scaloni in a news conference, adding that Martino brings a "winning mentality" to El Tri."They have shown they have great players and a very clear playing style.
"It's a test for us, a good measure for the players I've brought in to see how they respond to the situation in the conditions, with Mexico practically the home team."
Scaloni played with former Argentina national team head coach Martino at Newell's Old Boys and looked up to him when he was coming up through the ranks at the club, with the game against Mexico the first time he'll go up against him as a coach.
"For me, he was the idol of the club and he still is, logically," said Scaloni. "He was a very important player. He was an important reference point. He has a very clear idea [of how to play] and it's very important for us to play against not just 'Tata,' but this Mexico national team that I believe and I'm totally sure would be a very difficult challenge for any national team in the world.
"It's a team that has players that are among the best and it'll be difficult."
Martino, for his part, called his former side one of the "world's powers."
"Argentina, even though they've not won a title in some time, is one pedestal above [Mexico]," Martino said. "That doesn't mean that tomorrow we have less chance; we have the highest expectations in terms of the performance we want to see and in getting the right result."
Martino added that he doesn't believe his nationality and his previous position gets in the way of his work with Mexico.
"I can't change what I've always thought: the fact it's a game of football between countries doesn't bring [my] nationality into play," said Martino. "I work in Mexico, I try to do the best for Mexico. And if I do represent Argentina it's through my work, seriousness and honesty. When you work abroad that's the best way to represent the country."
Scaloni will be making changes from the side that played Chile and said that "logically the squad would be different" if the team was thinking only about the result as La Albiceleste -- who are missing Lionel Messi due to suspension -- undergoes a generational change.
Scaloni was confirmed as Argentina's head coach last November and made it clear that he doesn't view the team recent's recent past as a failure, despite not winning a major trophy since 1990.
"From 2012-13 until 2016-17 Argentina played three finals," he said. "That could've meant [winning] Copa Americas and a World Cup. It's a very fine line. If Argentina had won the World Cup, we wouldn't be saying this.
"Saying that Argentina failed is complicated. And two [of the finals] were [lost on] penalties."

CGTaylor replied to CGTaylor's topic in Beginning RVingThanks to everyone for your helpful information, and for clarifying domicile vs. change of address.
When to set up domicile and change address
CGTaylor posted a topic in Beginning RVingWe have not ordered the motorhome nor have we put the house up for sale yet, but we are only 2 months from doing both. Do we need to wait until we do those two tasks before we set up our domicile and begin the change of address process? I've seen some posts about changing address a few months before hitting the road. I worry about applying for financing and insurance, or closing on a house while changing addresses. Thoughts? Greatly appreciate it. 'Thanks
How many dealers do you shop?Thanks to everyone for your very helpful insights and opinions. We completed our spec sheet and just received the 2019 prices from Tiffin. Now we can email the dealers the spec sheet and ask each for a quote. A few months to go and maybe we'll see you on the road in the future!😀
How many dealers do you shop?We are about to purchase a Tiffin Phaeton. Should we: Visit multiple dealers and ask them to give us a quote? Pick a dealer close to home who doesn't specialize in Tiffins (which will be moot after a time since we'll be full-timers and won't have a local home anymore)? Pick a dealer based on reputation who is in a different state but very close to the Tiffin plant (about 15 hours away from our current home)? What would you do? Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks in advance.
Thanks. Too bad there aren't many RV options in an area that is so historic and attracts many tourists. Looks like a great opportunity for someone with the right entrepreneurial spirit. 🤑
Thanks, we looked up Campus Park & Ride. Looks like a great option.
Thanks, trailertraveler, this is all good to know. Thanks for the boondocking sites. We'll check into them.
Thanks for the info. Some of the campgrounds close by November and we may need to come after that. Ultimately, we'd love to find a private home that would be willing to host us...near Norristown.
Thanks for the info. We are northwest of the city, near Norristown, Pa.
Thanks for the great tip, 2gypsies. Very helpful.

Boondocking near Philadelphia
CGTaylor posted a topic in BoondockingWe will be purchasing a Tiffin 2018 Phaeton (40 ft.) this year and riding off into the sunset! When we come back to the Philadelphia area to visit family, we'd like to find someone or someplace that we can stay on the property in our motorhome while visiting. Of course we'd be willing to pay, especially if we can connect to electricity (water and dump is not necessary). I don't think there are many overnight campgrounds in the Philadelphia area. Is it possible to find someone with a bit of land who would let us park for a bit? Are there township restrictions? What do others do in a similar situation? Would love to hear from others about this. Thanks.

In order to address the limited and somewhat superficial media coverage on both sides, this media support efforts seeks to provide more objective information and analysis of a wide range of relevant issues in order to raise awareness, improve public education and elevate the discourse of developments in Turkey and Armenia. This effort builds on our earlier work and leverages the existing relationship and public prominence of the RSC, both institutionally and individually.
More specifically, RSC media support activities include four specific goals: (1) to elevate the level of discourse by providing more serious analytical content, (2) deepen and expand the scale and scope of media coverage, (3) to correct and counter inaccurate or stereotypical media coverage and (4) to facilitate closer cooperation and collaboration between Armenian and Turkish media professionals, with a specific focus on columnists, TV talk show hosts, pundits, "experts," and other "opinion-makers" and "opinion-shapers" in each country.
In terms of output, the media support effort is driven by two distinct goals. The first goal is the most obvious, and aims to attain an increase in the number of interviews, published analyses and television media coverage, with an effective mechanism to quantify and measure the outputs. Second, we seek to forge better collaboration and cooperation between Turkish and Armenian media outlets, aimed at capacity-building based on mutual interest and professional development. And third, we also seek to better bridge coverage and cooperation between and among national and local media outlets (Turkish and Armenian), domestic and international media outlets, and alternative, on-line electronic media outlets and professional journals and publications.
Taking into account the polarized nature of the Turkish media, we have been careful to balance our activities on two levels: first, by working with print media, television and alternative, electronic news outlets and, second, by cooperating with both pro-government and opposition media. Further, our planned outcome for media support efforts include a demonstrable and measurable degree of deeper analytical content on a wider range of issues beyond the limited scope of only Armenia-related issues.
Talk show with Aron Aji, Director of MFA in Literary Translation Program at the University of Iowa (USA) and the president of the American Literary Translators Association (ALTA). The talk is about literary translation, creativity of translation and its peculiarities, as well as Armenia-Turkey joint literary translation initiatives.

Important Pacts about Columbus plastic Surgery
With most people wanting to look younger each and every day, it is no doubt that many are turning up for the plastic surgery in Columbus. One gets to have a new physical change that turns him or her to look younger and better. Before you make the decision, it is vital for someone to get to know some things about the plastic surgery.
The following guidelines will help you in your choice before you go for the plastic surgery.
Ensure you are working with a surgeon who has been certified by the board. You need to work with someone who is legally allowed to perform a surgery. In Columbus there is a board that certifies all surgeons before they can start exercising their skills. In case you choose to work with someone who has not been certified by the board, you are likely to have the worst results ever.
You should make sure you know if you are about to choose someone who has been working in the same sector before. Experience is the best thing someone can obtain in his or her line of duty. It is advisable for people to choose surgeons who have experience rather than those who have just graduated from their universities. With someone who has experience, then you are assured of better results. With this assurance, then you will have a successful surgery.
It is important for you to know what treatment you will go through to make sure you get well. It is important for someone to know what he or she should do in order to makes sure that you get well soon. Doing this will enable you to prepare for the healing process. It might be hard for you to get to prepare for anything when you have undergone the operation process.
Know about the complications and risks you are about to encounter during your surgeon and healing process. It is important to ask this from your doctor because he or she can explain to you about the precautions you should take or any other alternative you can take to hinder this. In case you feel that you are not ready for the process, then you can opt to change for another option or change your mind completely.
Ask the doctor about the fee you will be charged. You need to get prepared with the amount, which you will use during your healing and to pay the doctor after the operation. It is important for someone to note that one has to pay the hospital bill before leaving the hospital. Before you have the surgery done, ensure you have all the money with you.

Shares sank for a second day on the two exchanges, following investor fear of a market correction.
|Investors at the MBS exchange floor in Hanoi (Photo: VNS)
The benchmark VN-Index on the HCM Stock Exchange edged down 0.2 to close at 709.5 points, expanding the two-day loss to 1.1 percent.
On the Hanoi Stock Exchange, the HNX-Index decreased 0.3 percent to end at 86.6 points. The northern index inched down 0.04 percent on Tuesday.
Investors continued to stay away from large-cap stocks. Seventeen of the 30 largest shares by market value and liquidity in HCM City slumped, while only eight advanced.
Insurance and bank stocks were among the biggest losers: large firms such as Bao Viet Holdings (BVH), BIDV Insurance (BIC), PVI Holdings (PVI) and lenders BIDV (BID), Vietinbank (CTG), Military Bank (MBB), Vietcombank (VCB) and Sacombank (STB) declined between 0.5 percent and 1.9 percent.
Insurance and bank stocks saw average decreases of 1.51 percent and 0.72 percent, respectively.
"The market seems to have lost its growing momentum since the VN-Index exceeded 710 points," stock analysts at Vietnam Investment Securities Co wrote in yesterday's report.
Blue chips and large-cap stocks treaded water; only small caps maintained the market uptrend, the report said.
On the bright side, several stocks advanced thanks to positive information.
Hòa Phát Group (HPG) climbed 2.3 per cent following the announcement that the company plans to adjust its profit target up 20 percent to VNĐ6 trillion in 2017.
Budget airline Vietjet hit the daily limit rise of 7 percent after its debut on Tuesday, settling at VND115,500 (US$5.07) a share.
According to Bao Viet Securities Co's prediction, the market might experience a correction in the next sessions, through which the VN-Index would likely move around 700-705 points.
Liquidity improved with a total of 277.2 million shares worth a combined VND4.1 trillion ($180 million) being traded in the two markets, up 12 percent in volume and 8 percent in value compared to the previous session.
Foreign investors were net sellers in HCM City's market for a tiny value of VND1.2 billion, but they extended their net buying streak to six consecutive sessions on the Hanoi's exchange with a net value of VND6.4 billion.
Vinamilk (VNM) continued to top their top buy list with a net value of VND40.3 billion, following FLC Faros Construction Corp (ROS) with nearly VND30 billion.

"Happy Hour"
Review by Suzanne 9/22/06
"Happy Hour" is one of those silly sitcoms about single people
having sex and laughing with their friends. These shows seem to come up every
year and most of them don't make it to a second season. I really like the
characters in Happy Hour, but the show could be funnier.
The show is about a guy named Henry whose girlfriend kicked him out, so he moves
in with another guy in the same building, Larry. Henry and Larry are sort of
like the Odd Couple in that they are opposite types. Henry is a naive young guy
from the midwest. He moved to Chicago to be with his high school sweetheart.
Larry is a very jaded guy who likes to drink a lot. He appreciates all the baser
things in life and tries to teach Henry about them, while Henry tires to make
Larry a little more sensitive. They hang out with Larry's friend Amanda and
Larry's former roommate Brad, who is married to Tina. They are an interesting
little bunch, but they really need to have funnier jokes while they build the
relationships and introduce us to the characters.
I hope to keep watching it, but once Smallville and other shows preview, I'm not
sure if I will be able to keep up with it and the other sitcom in that hour on
FOX. I really want to love these shows because TV doesn't have enough good
sitcoms any more, but....they are not great shows yet. Maybe they will develop
into them.

The ROOKIE Card and it's place in "Hockey"
I grew up knowing nothing about hockey...until the Canucks run for the cup in 81/82. Watching "King" Richard Brodeur, Thomas Gradin, "Tiger" Williams and the rest of the Vancouver Canucks, making a unlikely run for the cup. I was just a 10 year old kid. But seeing the team that represented my city and province do the unexpected, it made me feel like I could too.
It took me to playing street hockey, pond hockey, grass hockey , kitchen hockey...well point is, I fell in love with hockey. Like many of you. I became a fan and forever have been one. My allegiance's have shifted over the years. As a 10 year old boy, Vancouver was my team in their bright yellow jersey's. Then it shifted to the "Broad street bullies" when Pelle Lindberg took them to the Stanley Cup in 1984. Followed them until the 87' Canada Cup where the "Magnificent" Mario had his coming out party. It was Pittsburgh all the way. That was until 1992 ,when I became a Oiler forever.
We all have our stories of how we first fell in love with the game and how we wanted to be the players, the kids now call hero's, but what I remember most during that cup run in 82 was "Hockey Cards".
Every allowance, I would get all excited. I would run out the front door and bike as fast as I could to the local corner store to get the latest package of new hockey cards. Quickly ripping open the package, I would throw the stick of gum from the package into my mouth, start chewing and hope to find a card of my favourite hockey player like Wayne Gretzky or Mark Messier and almost choke on my gum when finding one.
On the back side of the cards were that players scoring and statistics. I would know, all the other boys at school would do anything to get that card. Lots of trading would happen. That one good player could fetch you dozens of other cards in completing your team sets.
The excitement would grow at school everyday. We couldn't wait till recess or lunch break. We would arrange for a card throwing game. A game where each player puts up their best card. Everyone playing would have to be in agreement that each player had a special card that the other players wanted. You would take your card, stand it up on a slight angle against a wall, then draw a line about ten feet away. That was the line that each player took turns to toss a card from, in hopes of knocking the card down. The player that knocks the card down will get to pick up all the cards that the other players have already tossed and the special card you wanted as well.
I never thought much about it then, but the cards we were tossing were pretty special cards. It included the likes of the "California Golden Seals", the "Kansas City Scouts", the "Cleveland Barons", the list goes on. Rookie Cards were not thought to be as valuable in that time as gaining your favourite player trading card or completing your favourite complete team set. That was the early 80's. By 1984, the ROOKIE Card in Hockey took a whole new turn. they became valuable! It was years later that I started remembering all those Wayne Gretzky, Mark Messier, Paul Coffey, Mario Lemieux ROOKIE cards, I once held in my hand and treated like nothing more then a common pebble found on the playground....It was the 'Dawn" of the ROOKIE card and the game of hockey was about to change forever.......(to be continued)

It seems like more and more, there is evidence that the world is shifting toward a plant-based diet and lifestyle. Even brands synonymous with meat and dairy, like White Castle and McDonald's, have recognized that the future of food is plant-based and have introduced vegan options at a number of their restaurants. Although Starbucks' primary specialties are coffee and beverages, they also carry a number of quick meal and snack options. In the past, their vegan options were primarily only fruit and dairy-free beverages, but they have now introduced a new vegan protein bowl!
The Vegan Lentils and Vegetables Protein Bowl with Brown Rice has a hearty 23 grams of protein and is jam-packed with fresh veggies and grains. It has more than one cup of vegetables, including butternut squash, roasted tomatoes, beets, broccoli, and peas. It is topped with sunflower seeds and served with a lemon-tahini dressing.
Considering the demand for protein in the U.S. is not set to decline anytime soon – after all, the average American consumes around twice the amount of protein they actually need daily – if we hope to be able to sustain a growing population without completely decimating the planet's land and freshwater stores, we need to look beyond animal agriculture to meet our protein fix. Starbucks' choice to create a plant-based lunch option that is not only packed with whole food ingredients but is also high in protein is a great move to make plant-based protein options more available to consumers.
With nearly 30 percent of Americans choosing to leave meat off the menu more frequently and around 40 percent of people choosing to eat plant-based when they eat out, this new bowl certainly meets that need!
We are so glad to see such a giant corporation acknowledging that the future of food is plant-based. If you are happy to see Starbucks introduce a vegan protein option, please share with your friends and family!

'Christ Is Our Peace'
EDITORIAL: Pray for the suffering of the Church across the world.
In one of the most beloved passages from the Gospel of Luke, the birth of Our Lord is announced at Bethlehem by an angel of the Lord, and a multitude of the heavenly host proclaim, "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests."
As 2016 comes to an end, the passage from Luke seems never more urgent or relevant to our needs as a nation and a world. This is especially true for our suffering sisters and brothers in the Holy Land and across the Middle East, the place where Our Lord was born.
The end of the year brings some hope for the Christians there — but also great fear.
The Islamic State (ISIS) is being driven from the northern Iraqi city of Mosul and the nearby Nineveh Plain, home to Christians for some two millennia. Christians in northern Iraq hope to have the opportunity soon to return to their towns and cities, but many dread they will find only ruins and little safety. ISIS may be gone militarily, but its evil spirit remains.
The Syrian Catholic archbishop of Mosul, Yohanna Petros Mouche, for example, recently told the international Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need that 75% of the homes in the now-freed Christian villages on the Nineveh Plain had been torched by local Muslims.
"Why did these people, with whom we were associated, do this? We ask ourselves whether this was their way of telling us that they will burn us to death if we return," the archbishop said, adding: "We are afraid that we will have to continue to live with these people. We impatiently awaited liberation, and many wanted to return immediately, but there first need to be guarantees for our safety."
In Syria, the news continues to be heartbreaking, most so in the city of Aleppo, where tens of thousands have died in the fighting between Syrian government forces and rebels, with another 250,000 trapped in the city and at risk from the savage combat, bombings, airstrikes and massacres, even as cease-fires are arranged and then collapse.
Beyond Syria and Iraq, there are the hundreds of thousands of refugees who have been displaced and brave death and injury to reach the shores of Europe. This year brought the somber milestone of more than 3,000 refugee deaths in the waters of the Mediterranean alone.
In her page-one story in this issue of the Register, Joan Frawley Desmond follows the plight of some Christian refugees who have been displaced and are celebrating Christmas under grim circumstances.
In the face of this misery, it is easy to despair of finding lasting answers and hope.
And yet, in the midst of the anxiety, Archbishop Mouche speaks of his "great joy" that, soon, Christians will return to the Nineveh Plain. In some towns in Iraq, bells have been rung in churches for the first time in two years, and Christians can see the possibility of returning to their lives and, God willing, openly living their faith.
There is much to be done, of course. There is the vexed question of building a stable environment for Christians and religious minorities on the Nineveh Plain and in Mosul. The incoming Trump administration can redouble efforts to defeat ISIS, find a permanent and peaceful settlement to Iraq's religious strife and find a way forward to end the civil war in Syria.
Political and diplomatic solutions can gain us much, but as Christians, we are also possessed of a deeper vision of reality.
"Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests."
If we truly give glory to God, as did the angels, then we must proclaim him everywhere — and in doing so, proclaim peace on earth among men, for the two are intimately connected. To fail to glorify God is to fail to bring authentic peace.
Pope Benedict XVI understood this well when he taught at the last midnight Mass of his pontificate in 2012, "Where God is not glorified, where he is forgotten or even denied, there is no peace either. … If God's light is extinguished, man's divine dignity is also extinguished. Then the human creature would cease to be God's image, to which we must pay honor in every person, in the weak, in the stranger, in the poor."
We may hope for the practical resolutions to the problems of our age, but anything truly lasting demands that we are aware that what Christ revealed to all of us supersedes any temporal power. All countries declare that they seek peace, but the model for us is God's humility and love. He came into the world as an infant, that we might love him and that the wisest might truly grasp what peace on earth actually means.
"Christ is our peace," Pope Benedict taught on that Christmas night, "and he proclaimed peace to those far away and to those near at hand (Ephesians 2:14, 17). How could we now do other than pray to him: Yes, Lord, proclaim peace today to us too, whether we are far away or near at hand. Grant also to us today that swords may be turned into ploughshares (Isaiah 2:4), that instead of weapons for warfare, practical aid may be given to the suffering. Enlighten those who think they have to practice violence in your name, so that they may see the senselessness of violence and learn to recognize your true face. Help us to become people 'with whom you are pleased' — people according to your image and thus people of peace."
As we embark on a new year, we should take this opportunity to pray for the suffering of the Church across the world, keep close in our hearts the Christians — and all who suffer — in Iraq, Syria and elsewhere in the Middle East, and commit ourselves anew to bring love to a love-starved world. In so doing, we can help to bring true peace among men. The editors and staff of the National Catholic Register wish everyone a blessed Christmas!

Interest Rates Second Mortgage
Find the best interest rates on bank accounts, mortgages, and credit cards as of June 30, 2019. Includes rates on savings and checking accounts, and CDs.
NerdWallet picked the best lenders in five categories. SunTrust offers a variable-rate HELOC where borrowers can convert all or part of the HELOC balance into a fixed-rate option. Pros Discount.
Mortgage rates trend · How much house can you afford? How to get an FHA loan · VA loans: The best mortgages · 8 smart moves to score the best possible.
Interest rates adjust periodically with a variable rate mortgage, which means repayments may change throughout the loan term.Usually, the interest rate changes in relation to another rate – the Bank of England's base rate is very influential on variable interest rates, as is the base rate of each lender.
We show you the best cutting board for your money. More people are pursuing refinances as mortgage rates have dropped. Owning a home isn't always better. It might make sense to stay where you are..
Mortgage Interest Rates Over The Years
With a longer mortgage term, your monthly payments are smaller because you have more time to pay the loan back. However, a longer term will cost more in total interest, and long-term mortgage interest rates are usually higher than short-term ones. For example, compare a $200,000 mortgage with a 15- or 30-year term.
One of the nation's most active lenders of FHA and VA loans. Cons Published mortgage rates include up to three points of prepaid interest and fees. Does not offer home equity loans or lines of credit..
Comparing mortgages is tricky. You should never assume the deal with the lowest rate or monthly payments is the cheapest. Many lenders make their expensive deals look cheap by offering temptingly low rates but add on massive fees. The trick is getting the right combination of interest rate and fees for your loan size to get the cheapest deal.
Because mortgage rates fluctuate daily, those wanting to play it safe may want to secure a low interest rate instead of running the risk of getting a worse offer later on. However, if you were originally quoted a higher rate that could potentially drop in the upcoming days, you may want to let your interest rate float.

Big names like Gavin Rossdale, Jesse Hughes, Lindsey Sterling and more joined forces for a time-warping night of fun and unity. Charity Bomb, in partnership with Goldenvoice and Big Picture Media, promised a night of all things '80s, from music to visuals and overall experience. Artists united to support Mental Illness recovery, sharing messages of their own personal losses and struggles.
A costumed Michael Myers greeted patrons at the door as they entered through security. More characters were found inside, including Princess Leia from Chewbacca to ninja turtles, Freddy Krueger and Michael Jackson. Chewbacca and a Ninja Turtle were seen getting down on the dance floor to freestyles from Harry Mack early in the program.
With over 50 performers, the logistics for carrying out a seamless show would be challenging. "Where's Lauren?" host Matt Pinfield said during another transitional setup. Regardless, there was very little wait time as the bands changed players and singers. Most acts sang about two songs, each of which were '80s anthems that had the crowd singing along.
Rachel Marin performed a full shrill version of Tears For Fears "Mad World." Jam Akler's "Purple Rain" rendition had everyone singing along to the chorus, and singer Winter Rain belted during Heart's "Alone."
Mark Hart from Crowded House joined on keys for their song, "Don't Dream It's Over," which featured local rising star singer Lauren Ruth Ward. After Crowded House, she moved into an inspired cover of Cyndi Lauper's "She Bop," channeling Lauper herself as she moved around the stage while she sang.
Covers from Siouxsie and the Banshees "Cities In Dust" and 'Til Tuesday's "Voices Carry" were excellent choices from Shira Girl. Frank Zummo of Sum 41 took the spotlight on drums for Beastie Boy's "No Sleep 'Till Brooklyn" and Motorhead's "Ace of Spades."
"Who's ready for Jesse Hughes?" "Who's ready for another anthem from the '80s?" the host riled up the crowd as the singer of Eagles of Death Metal took the stage for "Sweet Child O Mine" from Guns N' Roses. In fact, more members of Eagles of Death Metal took the stage that night during Stray Cat's Slim Jim Phantom's short set, in which they performed rockabilly hits like "Gonna Rock This Town."
A touching tribute to Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell was shared with the crowd, as Chester Bennington's son, Jaime Bennington was also present. "The next time someone needs your attention, pay attention to them," the host said.
No Doubt's Adrien Young took the drums for Joan Jett's "I Love Rock 'N Roll" and the Ramones' "Blitzkreig Bop." The Beastie Boys were very popular that night, as the band went into "Fight For Your Right."
Lindsay Sterling showcased her incredible violin skills with "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" by Wham! and Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger."
A highlight of the night was Bush's Gavin Rossdale's acoustic renditions of Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time" and Simple Mind's "Don't You Forget About Me." "A friend of mine took his own life in 2003," he said to the crowd, sharing his own personal experience with mental illness and suicide.
In the final hours of the event, Jump the Needle took the stage, with Jane's Addiction's Stephen Perkins on the drums and featured sax solos from Pink Floyd's very own Scott Page. They closed the night with "Some Like it Hot" from The Power Station.

Updated Wed., Jan. 29, 12 pm EST: Rep. Michael Grimm (R-N.Y.) has apologized to NY1 political reporter Michael Scotto for threatening him after the State of the Union address.
According to Time Warner Cable's NY1, Grimm called the reporter Wednesday morning and said that he "overreacted." Scotto tweeted about the phone apology.
A written apology was also released after the phone call:
I was wrong. I shouldn't have allowed my emotions to get the better of me and lose my cool. I have apologized to Michael Scotto, which he graciously accepted, and will be scheduling a lunch soon. In the weeks and months ahead I'll be working hard for my constituents on issues like flood insurance that is so desperately needed in my district post Sandy.
New York Rep. Michael Grimm is in a not-so-flattering spotlight after video footage surfaced after Tuesday night's State of the Union address showing the Republican congressman intimidating a reporter.
In the video, Grimm can be seen dismissing political reporter Michael Scotto and walking away after being asked a question about his alleged campaign-finance violations that he did not want to answer. Grimm is currently under federal investigation for the allegations.
Shortly after the reporter tells the camera that Grimm doesn't want to address the rumors, Grimm confronts him, and a muffled, tense conversation begins.
According to a transcript by NY1, Grimm approached the reporter and began speaking:
"What?" Scotto responded. "I just wanted to ask you … "
Grimm: "Let me be clear to you, you ever do that to me again I'll throw you off this [f—king] balcony."
Scotto: "Why? I just wanted to ask you …"
[cross talk]
Grimm: "If you ever do that to me again … "
Scotto: "Why? Why? It's a valid question."
[cross talk]
Grimm: "No, no, you're not man enough, you're not man enough. I'll break you in half. Like a boy."
Grimm has since released a statement:
I was extremely annoyed because I was doing NY1 a favor by rushing to do their interview first in lieu of several other requests. The reporter knew that I was in a hurry and was only there to comment on the State of the Union, but insisted on taking a disrespectful and cheap shot at the end of the interview, because I did not have time to speak off-topic. I verbally took the reporter to task and told him off, because I expect a certain level of professionalism and respect, especially when I go out of my way to do that reporter a favor. I doubt that I am the first Member of Congress to tell off a reporter, and I am sure I won't be the last.
NY1 Political Director Bob Hardt also released a statement:
It is extremely disturbing when anyone threatens one of our reporters—let alone a U.S. Congressman. The NY1 family is certainly alarmed and disappointed by the behavior of Representative Grimm and demands a full apology from him. This behavior is unacceptable.
Grimm has been under scrutiny since the FBI charged Diana Durand, his ex-girlfriend, earlier this month with using straw donors to contribute more than the legal limit to his campaign. She reportedly offered to reimburse a group of friends if they contributed to the campaign.
Grimm has not been charged in connection with the investigation.
