The things we do may perhaps be similar to others but the WAY we do them are different. An often repeated truth…that winners don't necessarily do different things but might do the same thing differently.
Have you noticed how creative people do mundane chores as if they are enjoying them day after day after day? The onlooker sees these as boring, mechanical and depressing. But an enriched mind survives well, digging up many ways to keep the interest alive.
"ROUTINE" is the word for people who cannot find new routes and get stuck along the way. And when they add "mundane" to "routine", then they have truly lost their interest and therefore, their creativity.
I find walking on round tracks not so easy because you end up nowhere except in circles. But now, I reverse the circle, change my breathing pattern, speed, the shloka I might be chanting for the round, the trend of thought….or maybe, just become still in mind…thoughtless.
I find this is a great technique to live with myself, too. The inputs come from different aspects of me but I have a lot of fun personifying all these different ideas as many people within me giving me new ideas and walking in that circle with me.

Summer Art Workshop
Happy to see kids fostering creativity during their summer holidays. Another fun-filled art workshop by Emm & Enn.
New to Art? JUST ST[art]™
Corporate Art Workshop
Our new art workshop with the employees of Riversand Technologies and their children as part of the "Bring your child to Work" event. It was a great moment when the 'little magicians' unleashed their creativity and blew everyone away with their artistic impressions of their parents. It was a delight to see their enthusiasm to visualize their parents and to transfer imagination into a caricature on canvas.
Morning Mountains - Art Workshop
It's truly exciting to watch new artists find happiness amongst the brush strokes. We were happy to see parents connect with their children on canvas. For some, the joy of painting and creating art for the first time was enough to commit themselves to learn more. These stories motivate us to do more and help people find the joy of creativity.
Spring Painting Workshop 2019
Our first art workshop of the year kicked off with a mix of colors, happiness, and collaboration of art enthusiasts. It was such a delight to see different age groups enjoying the art together.

Contemporary landscape artist
I hadn't lifted a paintbrush for almost 3 decades, until I signed up for the Access to Art course at Malvern School of Art in 2014. That opened up a whole new world, which I continue to explore, studying painting styles and techniques, and striving to improve my art.
I paint predominantly in oils, with my weapons of choice being palette knives, flat brushes and various household implements that make an interesting mark.
I love colour, light and reflections, and am drawn to moody skies and water. My paintings are based on experiences from St Ives to Scotland, but the intention is to capture a mood or energy so the location doesn't really matter if it evokes something for you.

When 505 Games needed an E3 Trade Show Booth they commissioned the pros here at Marketing Genome to get it done right.
eSports is blowing up! And the eMLS Soccer League is a pioneer in the industry. So, when they needed a custom eSports Gaming Arena built out for PAX East in Boston they commissioned the pros here at Marketing Genome.
When Loot Crate first came to us, they were looking for a full-service event management company to simplify the logistics involved with a multi-show campaign, year after year. This being our specialty, we were of course more than happy to deliver.
Similar to the PAX East eSports Gaming Arena we recently ran, the competition along with the retail pop-up store, broadcast booth and photo-op were all held in one contained area. The main lobby floor served as the optimal location for this event with the objective of capturing as much foot traffic as possible.
When Bandai came to us with an idea to model an enormous outdoor marketing display after their hit TV show Dragon Ball Z we were chocked full of ideas and had more than enough experience to tackle the job (which included one very long trip to Japan).
When Henkels & McCoy, a premier utility infrastructure network provider reached out to us for a custom 20x20' trade show booth we answered with a one-off exhibit fabrication and design that would stand proudly amongst their peers at the 2018 IEEE PES Conference in Denver.
A Dedicated Meeting Space & Demo Area, Full Wall Double Faced Lightboxes, 5-foot Interactive iPhone App Replica, 3D Hanging Signage, Custom Greeting Counter and Much more for this custom trade show booth exhibit for Park Mobile at the IPI Conference and Expo.
What better way to promote a new series than to engulf series premier VIP's directly into the set of the show itself? Experiential marketing all the way. So when The Syndicate came to us for a partnership in recreating an interactive set replica from the recently premiered HBO series, Room 104 we were more than willing. And we are not just saying that because they are an awesome team to work with.
As both experiential and trade show marketers we love booth ideas that can tackle both spectrums of marketing. So you could imagine our elation when Sony Pictures reached out to us looking for a completely outside-the-box idea for a Spider-Man Homecoming New York Comic Con Booth and Experiential Activation.
When Digital Trends stepped outside the web for a way to further expand their footprint they turned to Marketing Genome. By reserving exhibit space at the CES tradeshow 2017 in Las Vegas, Digital Trends could not have chosen a better trade show. For a convention of this magnitude, making a huge impact was critical. This came in the form of a completely custom trade show booth with all the bells and whistles. Something we do especially well.
To promote the upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release Universal Studios commissioned Marketing Genome to design, fabricate and manage their over the top Custom Experiential Display. In the end, the Jurassic World Gates were much more than a custom display. It was a meeting place for lost families, a backdrop your best selfie ever, a chill down the spine of first time attendees, an example of where the industry is heading, one epic product promotion and most of all, another evolution of where Marketing Genome can take your brand.
Whether you're onboard or not, the green movement is in full effect and nowhere else has that become more apparent than at SXSW Eco. So when Cool Effect, a leading organizer of carbon-cutting projects reached out to us to create a one-off experiential display, we were thrilled to join the movement.
Narr8 produces an extensive list of interactive comics, books, and novels. We created a custom installation in order to get the attention of over 100,000 attendees at New York Comic Con. This larger than life 10-foot-tall interactive iPad and the booth design that surrounded it was a hit. The interactive iPad continually drew in crowds and photo opportunities during the 5 day show.
Dark Horse is one of the largest publishers of comic books in the United States. We consistently team up with Dark horse to generate their trade show experiences through out the country. Most notably, we produce their 50' x 70' booth at Comic Con International in San Diego, California. This unique exhibit engages over 100,000 attendees from various points on the show floor and allow for maximum traffic flow.
Sega is one of the leading interactive entertainment companies in the world. When they asked for a Pop-Up shop during San Diego Comic Con, we delivered. We came up with a concept, scouted the location, and executed. We transformed an empty retail store into a fully functional, booming arcade in 2 days. Over 53,000 people experienced the SEGA Pop-up Arcade during a 5-day period.
Konami is a worldwide gaming juggernaut claiming the fifth-largest gaming company in the world. We've helped them launch countless events ranging from massive gaming tournaments to show-stopping booths complete with competitive arenas. Konami's island exhibits are often constructed with modular metal extrusions, presentation stages, custom hanging signs, and high-end displays for gaming tournaments.
Modeled to represent Tiësto's image, came the fabrication of a modern, irregular-shaped Custom Pop Up Display Store and what better place to best promote the DJ himself than during the Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC), one of the worlds largest electronic dance music festivals in Las Vegas, Nevada.

NEW PORT RICHEY — The City Council is poised to allow medical marijuana dispensaries in commercial areas throughout New Port Richey, with the exception of downtown.
During a meeting this week, the council voted 4-0 to approve on first reading a medical marijuana ordinance that would lift a moratorium on dispensaries. The council had established the moratorium while waiting for the Florida Legislature to hash out rules and regulations for medical marijuana after voters overwhelmingly approved Amendment 2 to the state Constitution last November.
The ordinance would also allow for medical marijuana dispensaries in nearly every part of the city short of areas with residential or downtown district zoning. It means such businesses would be able to open in all areas with commercial or light industrial zoning. A second reading is planned for Aug. 15.
As part of the ordinance, the city would also ban any new pharmacies in the downtown district, as new state laws governing medical marijuana mandate that all dispensaries be treated by local jurisdictions as pharmacies.
The downtown district is a small part of the city that roughly runs along Main Street east from Madison Street west to U.S. 19 and from Missouri Avenue north to Circle Boulevard. Currently, there are two pharmacies in the downtown district, including a Walgreens at U.S. 19 and Main Street, that would be grandfathered in by the ordinance.
Council members praised the ordinance as being welcoming to medical marijuana businesses while protecting the downtown area and preserving its character. A separate ordinance would allow the city to establish development guidelines for dispensaries that would be reviewed by the council on a case-by-case basis.
"I think this covers my concerns as far as the immediate downtown and gives as wide an opportunity as far as the placement of these things," Mayor Rob Marlowe said of potential dispensaries.
While a ban may be coming on pharmacies and medical marijuana dispensaries downtown, craft beer could be headed to the city's hub. The council unanimously approved on first reading a brewpub-microbrewery ordinance.
The ordinance would allow for craft beer pubs to open in the downtown district and in commercial areas, and beer-making businesses known as micro breweries to operate in areas zoned highway and light industrial. City staffers also will look at adding language that could allow "nano-breweries" downtown, which would allow a business to make and serve smaller amounts of beer than a micro brewery.
In other business, a proposal for a Family Dollar store along a key corridor leading into the city at Gulf Drive and Grand Boulevard was swiftly shot down, even though city staffers said the property met the requirements for rezoning. Council members said Gulf Drive, in its current condition, could not handle the traffic the store would generate and, overall, the store was not consistent with redevelopment efforts to make the city more walkable and attractive to young professionals.
"In my opinion, it's not the direction we are going in the city," said Deputy Mayor Jeff Starkey.
Also on Tuesday night, the council gave initial approval to a resolution that would establish a citywide paving assessment program, something that has been in formulation for months. Before the final vote, the public will have one last chance to weigh in on the resolution at 6 p.m. Aug. 24 at City Hall.

*Spoiler Ahead – Photographs Ahead!!!*
Yo people, today I'll be telling you guys about my FIRST IMPRESSIONS of a Food Destination which is Azote, an ice dessert parlor that is known to make ice cream by using liquid Nitrogen.
There is no sitting area in this tiny but CUTE shop so you have to eat while standing up. Good news is that they serve a diverse and large variety of flavors to choose from, trust me cause I myself end up ordering 3 different ice creams.
Also, I'll admit watching the whole procedure of making ice cream by adding Nitrogen in liquid form was quite interesting and foggy too (a lot!).
My favorite would be the one combing Bournvita (chocolate) and cheesecake, it was so damn delicious and adding NUTELLA into it using a mini syringe was awesome.
The interior of the parlor looked something in between cozy and modern art, here are the pictures to prove it.
Fun Fact – It's Delhi first Nitro Ice cream parlor.
Location – C-11, Ground Floor, Community Centre, SDA, New Delhi
Thank you for Reading and if you like my photography skills 😉 go on my HOME page and check out my other articles too and I personally reply to all my COMMENTs (just saying…)

He's standing on this earth right now.
It could be someone standing right next to me.
It could be someone halfway across the world.
That person is alive right now,
Living life.
My teacher thinks he's a sophomore currently.
He's taller than I am.
We'll be happy, a good family.
She believes he plays guitar,
We complement each other and our music.
We aren't jealous of our different skills.
He has blonde hair.
He wants to live in the country.
He drives a black truck,
A Ford.
I wonder if this is true,
If I really will end up with someone like that.
It seems so perfect.
I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

For the past three years, I have had the absolute pleasure of capturing this family! I have had so much fun getting to know Amber, who is, by the way, an amazingly talented photographer! It is an insanely humbling experience to work with other photographers, one that makes me so nervous, in a good way! While I look forward to this time of year for many reasons, one is to get to see her family, and I also look forward to her capturing my husband and I and our 3 rowdy boys! Such a fun relationship to be able to talk photography and many other things during our late nights of editing!
Isn't she and her sweet family picture perfect!?

A recycling company and a director have been ordered to pay fines and costs totalling £33,000 after polluting watercourses and failing to notify the Environment Agency (EA).
The case against AWSM Recycling, of Hutton Magna, near Darlington, and sole director Adam Metcalfe involved incidents between July 2011 and October 2015.
The charges relate to the illegal spreading of hazardous material on land, unauthorised burning of waste and, by breaching permit conditions, allowing waste to escape into streams in three separate incidents.
The company and Metcalfe were sentenced at Teesside Crown Court on 19 June, having admitted offences at two previous hearings. Metcalfe was fined £1,000 and his company £20,000, with the company also ordered to pay £12,000 in court costs.
The EA set out three incidents:
- A leak from a store of blood waste kept for land spreading, which resulted in a stream being affected, killing all invertebrates and fish for 1.2km downstream
- Land spreading activities involving abattoir waste reduced oxygen levels in a stream
- A concrete store which held waste beef blood was leaking into a drain and flowing into a stream, with water samples showing high ammonia concentration levels
The company also admitted failing to notify the EA about a pollution incident in relation to the third offence.
Metcalfe told the court that new procedures had since been put in place, with producers now asked to complete an audit form.
He said he thought he had an exemption to cover the waste on his land. The first pollution incident was due to vandalism of his storage tank and, at first sight, he did not feel the incident was serious enough to report.
A mechanical failure of new equipment led to another pollution incident, he added.

Fastest-Growing Careers for Women in 2017
About the Author

Are you looking for a new career? Whether you need something that provides more stability for you and/or your family, you're seeking more opportunity for advancement, or you simply want to have an adventure in a different setting, 2017 is a great year for a woman to try her hand at a new career.
The careers featured in this article are heavily dominated by women, with the exception of two or three. Those industries that have fewer women rank among the fast-growing jobs with better salaries, minimum additional education, and more growth opportunities.
It's worth noting that women seeking a leadership role in a company have a much harder road ahead of them. A Women in the Workplace study showed that despite the verbal support of companies who feel that creating more equality in the workplace is important, there is still a sizable difference in the number of men and women who receive key promotions. The initial step to management is the most difficult to make with 130 men to every 100 women receiving the first promotion. There are a lot of factors that play into this disparity, including lack of feedback, perceived bossiness, and the simple lack of interest on the part of women to take on the higher leadership roles (only 40 percent of women said they wanted to become a top executive, versus 56 percent of men).
Despite the skewed leadership opportunities in the workforce, there are plenty of great jobs that pay well and employ a lot of women.
When composing this list, we looked for jobs that offered a median annual salary of more than the Federal Poverty Level for a family of four (which at the time of publication is $24,250). We also eliminated jobs that required more than a four-year degree and tried to offer several different fields to choose from. The goal of this article is to provide a list of attainable, well-paying jobs for women that will continue to grow over the next several years, providing maximum opportunity for employment options.
There are many fields where women dominate. As you'll see on our list, women make up most of the working population in many of the medical and health industries. But, we also show that women have gotten a grip on some other industries including jobs like marketing and event planning. Keep reading to learn more about the fastest growing jobs for women.
Market Research Analyst / Marketing Specialist
Projected growth: 41.2% - Median wage: $51,377
A Market Research Analyst and/or Marketing Specialist conducts research and analyzes other market research to help companies determine how a product could perform. An analyst must look at data and predict changes in the industry and how the changes could affect companies. An analyst also studies the competition to strengthen their company's position in the marketplace. The specialist works closely with a research analyst and uses the data to create a marketing plan. The specialist designs programs that help a company grow, increase sales and expand product lines. You can get a job as a marketing specialist if you have a bachelor's degree and some experience in marketing. Creativity is a great characteristic for success in this position.
Did you know that women make 85 percent of all consumer purchases? With that much influence in the field, women have a keen understanding of customer decisions, making marketing a great career option.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) anticipates that this career will need an additional 94,000 market research analysts and marketing specialists by 2024. This field is growing much faster than average
Pharmacy Technician
Projected growth: 30.6% - Median wage: $28,000
Pharmacy technicians work behind the counter at local pharmacies. They are responsible for working with customers and filling prescriptions. Training (whether on the job or via a certification program) is vital because technicians help mix medications, count pills, check to ensure the medication and label match, and provide instructions to the customer. They may also take prescriptions from a medical provider over the phone. While the pharmacist is responsible for the whole facility, the techs work one-on-one with the customers and dispense prescriptions every day. To work as a pharmacy technician, you should have at least a high school diploma or the equivalent. Depending on your state, you may also have to complete a training program. Women are taking over this industry. Fortune Magazine ranked pharmacy careers as one of the top five industries ruled by women.
Job growth in this industry is higher than average with an additional 33,500 jobs opening before 2024, says the BLS.
Skin Care Specialist
Projected growth: 37.8% - Median wage: $28,500
Skin care specialists typically work at spas or salons and provide facials and other skin care regimens for their clients. Medical offices may also hire a skin care specialist to offer services to their clients. You will need to complete a cosmetology program and pass a state exam before you can work alone. Like other positions in the cosmetology industry, there is plenty of on-the-job training as well. This type of job allows for running an independent business. Women dominate this field making up 78% of the professionals who work as skin care specialists.
The job growth is above average. An estimated new 6,600 jobs will open by 2024, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Computer and Information Systems Manager
Projected growth: 15% - Median wage: $131,600
Computer and Information Systems Managers are more commonly known as IT managers, or work in the IT department of a company. They deal with everything relating to a company's technology - whether that be new computers, phone systems, or wifi providers. Also, they help to troubleshoot with coworkers who may not be as technically savvy as themselves. This career usually takes just a Bachelor's degree, and some work experience in a related field.
While the projected growth percentage of this career path is lower than some of the other careers listed here, it is worth noting that it's relative to the number of people already working this field. The Occupational Outlook Handbook estimates over 53,000 new jobs will be available by 2024.
Projected growth: 42.2% - Median wage: $43,499
If you can fluently read, write, and speak a second language working as a translator or interpreter can be a rewarding job opportunity with potential benefits of traveling or living in a unique environment. Job duties require the ability to translate written or verbal words from one language to another. Translating typically refer to written words while interpreting is for spoken words. There is a myriad of opportunities for this skill set. Translators and interpreters can work with the courts, schools, the government, hospitals, and businesses. Depending on the specific industry you intend to work in, you may need a bachelor's degree. However, the most important skill you need is the ability to fluently work in more than one language. According to the American Literary Translators Association, women make up just over 30 percent of this field, which means there is lots of room for improvement and growth!
This industry is growing at a much higher rate than average. An estimated additional 17,500 new jobs will be available by 2024, says the BLS.
Veterinary Technician
Projected growth: 35.8% - Median wage: $29,500
If you love working with animals, then landing a job as a veterinary tech may be the perfect job option for you. Job duties for a veterinary tech include performing medical testing and assisting in the diagnosing and treatment of injuries and illnesses in animals. Landing this gig means you'll likely be working in a private clinic or animal hospital. Some veterinary techs work at labs or animal shelters. There's a bit of a difference between a technician and technologist. A technologist requires a four-year diploma and a technician only requires an associate's degree, though the average wage for both was similar. You may also have to take a certification or state test, depending on where you live. While the veterinary industry was traditionally dominated by males in the past, this trend has flip-flopped. Today, on average, women make up about 80% of the veterinary student population.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics says jobs in this industry should increase by 17,900 before 2024. Veterinary Technology is growing much faster than the average industry.
Cost Estimator
Projected growth: 36.4% - Median wage: $61,405
If you're good with numbers, switching to a career as a cost estimator could add up to a good move for you! A cost estimator does pretty much what it sounds like. They collect data and figure out the cost of projects based on materials, labor and time. This type of work is mostly office based, though some estimators visit construction sites and the work floor to better understand how to factor in the time it takes to complete various tasks. In addition, cost estimators look at the data they analyze and offer recommendations to companies on ways they can save money. They may also work closely with vendors and a company sales team to create appropriate bids and estimates for upcoming work. A bachelor's degree and a good eye for math are sufficient for this industry. It's also helpful to have a good understanding of blueprints as cost estimators often make projections off that information. This job ranks as one of the highest in-demand occupations. Only 11 percent of cost estimators are women, according to the Department of Labor.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that this career will add an additional 19,000 employees by 2024.
Meeting / Event Planner
Projected growth: 43.7% - Median wage: $55,812
When most people think of event planning they likely picture weddings and parties for the Hollywood elite. While these are fair examples of work an event-planner would do, there are plenty more opportunities for women to take the reign in other industries, and make a decent paycheck doing it. Event planners can work on their own (or under the umbrella of an event planning company) or work within a larger organization to plan and organize business retreats, conferences, fundraisers, banquets, and other special events. Job duties typically include scheduling, working with vendors, coordinating with attendees, reviewing and approving bills and making sure they fulfill each of the client's needs for each specific event. Most event planners have a bachelor's degree in communications, public relations, or hospitality. If you have a degree in another field you may consider completing an event planning certification program. Communication is key with this job. This is another industry in which women dominate, accounting for 77% of all professionals in the field.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that an additional 31,000 event planners will be needed by the year 2020.
Athletic Trainer
Projected growth: 36.9% - Median wage: $41,500
An athletic trainer works with patients to help them with muscle and bone injuries. Job duties include diagnosing, treating, and preventing injuries. They may offer minor medical treatment, evaluate injuries and plan/implement programs designed to protect athletes from injury. Athletic trainers are good at keeping record and tracking performance. Some athletic trainers even help create new rules and regulations to protect the athletes. Athletic trainers are different from personal trainers. Workers in this industry can get a job at colleges, elementary schools, doctor's offices and with professional sports teams. If you are interested in working as an athletic trainer you will need a bachelor's degree and most states also require that trainers complete a certification and/or licensing process. While women do not traditionally dominate this field, the National Fitness Training Association did elect its first female president in 2000. Seventy percent of athletic trainers for female sports are women
The athletic training industry is growing much faster than average with an estimated 5,400 jobs opening before 2024, according to the BLS.
Physical Therapist Assistant
Projected growth: 33.3% - Median wage: $48,500
Physical Therapist Assistants work closely with a licensed physical therapist to provide help during recovery after an injury. Some work a PTA may do includes observing and reporting on patient performance, assist in some exercises, treat patients with massage, stretching and other techniques and offer education about the type of work a patient needs to do at home. A PTA may also talk with family members and inform them about ways they can help in the days after physical therapy ends. A PTA may also do other tasks like setting up treatment areas and completing clerical work. An Assistant can work directly with the patient and provide information to the therapist. If you are interested in helping people get back on their feet (quite literally, sometimes) you'll need an associate's degree plus a state certification/license. Women make up about 70 percent of all professionals in this field.
Physical Therapy is one of the fastest growing industries in the country and the BLS predicts that the industry will create another 51,400 jobs by the year 2024.
Dental Hygienist
Projected growth: 36.1% - Median wage: $67,500
If you enjoy a regular schedule with good working hours, employment as a dental hygienist may be just what the doctor ordered. Job duties for this role include cleaning teeth, examining patients for signs of disease and educating on preventative care. Hygienists may also be present during some dental procedures and aid as needed. Other tasks include documentation, taking (and developing) x-rays and reporting to the dentist about each patient. You'll need a good personality and a calming nature to excel at this job. Many patients are a bit skittish in the dentist chair! You'll need an associate's degree to work as a hygienist. The programs can take up to three years. You'll need to obtain and maintain a state license. Ranking as one of the fastest growing industries, the women rule here, accounting for 98 percent of all dental hygienists.
Dental hygienists make a great salary and the BLS predicts that this industry will create the need for more than 37,000 new jobs before 2024.
Changing Careers
Whether you are choosing a new career because you're just starting out, you're bored, you want something more exciting or you're looking for more stability, taking the time to make the right choice is essential. This is particularly true if you'll be investing time and money furthering your education or pursuing a certification course.
A few things to remember when you're hunting for your next career:
Look before you leap: If you are switching industries take the time to do some research. You don't want to leave one unsatisfying career for another. Additionally, choose a career field based on what type of work interests you. Don't just rely on statistics to pick a job in a hot industry.
Consider everything: Try taking a career assessment or talking with a career advisor. You may discover other job fields you'd never considered before. A little exploration can go a long way.
Use support: You may feel embarrassed or frustrated if you are unhappy in your current career. Some women think that opting to switch careers looks flaky or unsuccessful. But, there is nothing wrong with admitting you aren't happy. Find a friend or a mentor to help make your transition easier. When you have a supportive network, moving into a new industry can be more exciting and less stressful.
Take a test drive: You'd never purchase a brand-new car without taking it for a spin around the block. Going back to school for a new career should get the same consideration. Before you pay money on licensing or other courses, interview someone who works in the field. Better yet, try to snag an internship or volunteer in the field you are interested in. The hands-on experience will tell you whether taking the plunge is a smart move for you.
The job market is wide open for women. If you are considering a career change, check out some of the hottest fields for women on our list. While these fields are trending towards more openings for women and they offer livable wages, they are just a few options. Pair your passion with a successful field and you'll be on the path to a happier lifestyle!
Do you work in one of the industries that made the list? We'd love to hear from you.

*Update* This account did have a previous suspension on it. Here is the IMGR link to that case. This doesnt seem like it would affect it being 3 years old and the type of suspension. https://imgur.com/gallery/N1ExSkE I wont mince words, and I wont edit my content here. This is not ok. RIOT needs to start looking at the games they ban people for. The player in question was getting talked to by everyone on the team. He was not contributing and actually trolling us. Through the course of the game this was the only chat I did. Not really even that much given the nature of the game. Would I have accepted a communications ban? Probably, fine. A PermaBan on an account that has money dumped into it is not ok. I have NEVER been banned or even suspended before, for anything, ever. this is a 4 seasons old account with level 5 honor. Is the language tilting, yes. Is it up to the "summoners code" probably not, but a permaban is not the correct punishment and frankly is really disturbing that it came to this. There are no other games... It is only one. I can post a screenshot if I must. Game 1 In-Game sshakinbacon: lol sshakinbacon: fuck you ryze sshakinbacon: either go in and play or go afk sshakinbacon: youre fucking useless sshakinbacon: 0/3 vs 6/5 get rekt you fucking idiot sshakinbacon: you lost this game by being a fucking idiot sshakinbacon: keep losing and stay iron sshakinbacon: report our ryze for inting sshakinbacon: toxicity** sshakinbacon: this ryze has inted and not engaged on purpose and laughed so yes we will report him sshakinbacon: yup still nothing worth a damn from ryze sshakinbacon: rep the 0/4 ryze lol sshakinbacon: you arent sshakinbacon: we are pinging you to help and you run away sshakinbacon: thats not your best thats trolling sshakinbacon: and you laugh about it when we die and you leave sshakinbacon: thats trolling sshakinbacon: you wont help at all or do anything for the team sshakinbacon: lol 3v1? sure is sshakinbacon: i mean if you didnt win Post-Game sshakinbacon: 3v5 gg

The Presumption of Payment
At Gettysburg College, students invest a considerable amount of money to make their experiences rewarding for future aspirations. Enrollment at this school, like others, I am sure, seems to breed a special type of student: the students who view themselves as paying and therefore deserving consumers.
These students might sit through a lecture from a doctoral professor until they decide that their time is more important and better spent elsewhere— they leave. Or they might come to class only when it's convenient for them, but still choose to sleep for the next fifty minutes rather than feign respect. Or maybe they'll complain about walking to class in the snow, claiming that they deserve the day off and forgetting about the early-rising facilities employees who work tirelessly to clear our paths.
We sometimes feel as though these and other privileges are actually unalienable rights. Maybe these attitudes are embedded in the type of student that Gettysburg attracts. Perhaps the price or reputation of the school or an individual's inflated perception of self-importance is what perpetuates the meritocracy at Gettysburg. Over and over again, I've seen students demonstrate their feelings of deserving what they get here. They paid for their meal plan, so they can steal some extra food from Servo. They paid for their dorm room, so they can trash it. They paid for exactly 50 minutes of class on Monday morning, so they aren't going to stay for 51. I cannot say with a clear conscience that I'm guiltless because I find myself doing this, too. It's hard to resist, for example, looking at my phone and shooting off a few texts during class. After all, I paid to be there. I can do whatever I want – right?
The pervasiveness of this attitude among many on campus boils down to a common denominator of feeling entitled. We pay to be here, so we do what we want. Paying over $50,000 dollars a year, however, does not elevate any individual over any other nor does it warrant a free pass, disrespect or an attitude of superiority. Our time as students is valuable, yes, and we do pay to be here. But, what does it to say about us when we expect or deserve a Gettysburg College education? Have we earned it?
Some would say, yes. My parents worked hard. My grandfather came from nothing. All true, yet, the story is incomplete. The ironic truth is that the myths perpetuating a sense of entitlement work as blinders. A family's wealth doesn't earn a student the right to pick and choose his way through college. After all, status and income owe much to historical racial preference embedded in our education system, housing policies and employment policies.
To assume we are entitled to treat my professors with disrespect because my family pays tuition or because our hard work has earned us a place at Gettysburg College only sustains the fallacy of meritocracy. Instead of assuming our access to a great education is a right, we need to acknowledge it for what it is – the culmination of hard work and privilege.
Ownership and recognition of this are the first steps. Sitting through class at 8 in the morning is not something that sounds altogether appealing to me, and I wouldn't quite venture to use the word "enjoyable" to describe sitting through a 50 minute lecture that feels at least twice as long. But, the inconveniences we face certainly should not make us reflect and say: "I'm too good for this." Disrespecting a professor because his lecture is dull and feeling entitled to the things that we students believe we are owed is unacceptable – it ignores the context within which we even earned the opportunity to attend this institution in the first place.
Yes, we pay to be here. Yet, looking at ourselves as consumers who are owed a product is debilitating for us as individuals and the college environment as a whole. It makes our perspective limited and one-dimensional; our ability to develop authentic working relationships or a reality shared with others becomes incapacitated. When we spend most of our lives assuming our teachers and schools need to ensure our satisfaction, the world of work will be a major shock. We are not entitled consumers of a Gettysburg College education – we are learners, and we are privileged.

Today's Scripture: If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:26
Jesus is all the world to me,
Jesus is all the world to me. Can you honestly say that? Are you so committed to the things of God that He means more to you than everything else in your life? We can look at the lives of some great men of faith and see that they truly lived this way. Job blessed God after all of his wealth was taken and his children were killed; Abraham was willing to offer Isaac when God commanded. Moses forsook the riches of Egypt for his people. The apostles left their homes, families, and jobs to be with Christ. These are only a few examples.
Another man who illustrated this principle was Horatio G. Spafford, the man who wrote the song "It is Well with my Soul". Horatio Spafford was a prominent lawyer and real estate investor in Chicago in the mid 1800's. Much of his real estate investment was destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire in October of 1871. Two years later, he and his family were going to England, but he was delayed because of work. His family went on ahead, and he was going to meet them when he could. However, the ship his family was on collided with another ship and sank in the Atlantic. All four of Horatio's daughters drowned, but his wife was rescued and sent him a telegram saying, "Saved alone." Horatio then travelled to England to be with his wife, and during the trip, wrote the song "It is Well with my Soul." Despite the terrible loss he had suffered, he could say, "It is well."
His faith in his Savior was able to carry him through the immense pain he faced. Even though he lost all of his children, he still trusted God. I pray you will never have to face a trial like that, but whatever you are going through, don't abandon God. He is the One Who is able to give the strength to go on.
Our friends and families are dear to us, but our love for God needs to be so much greater. Not only is He the One Who loves us like no one else can, but He is also the One Who has promised to never leave us nor forsake us. He is the One Who truly knows what we are going through, and He needs to be the most important thing to us. Christ even said we are to hate our own life in comparison to our love for God. Are you willing to sacrifice everything for God? Choose today to begin showing Him that He really is everything to you.
Devotional by Pastor Jim Scudder, Jr

Cora Uhrig's family has been helped by Medicaid. Their daughter Amanda's medication and health coverage is possible because of this program.
Where do you live?
We live in Aloha.
Can you tell us a little about Amanda?
Amanda is well known in our little town of Aloha. If I go to the store, post office, water company, or Costco without her, I'm asked the
same question: Where is Amanda?
Amanda goes everywhere we go, camping, vacations, birthday parties, watching her cousins baseball games, etc. She even went to Chicago to see her brother graduate from Navy boot camp!
Amanda is a blessing to our family. We can learn a lot of her outlook on life! She has no worries, always happy, and gives all of us unconditional love!
How does Medicaid help Amanda?
Medicaid gives us access to doctors and specialists for Amanda's epilepsy and kidney issues.
It also covers her medication and Amanda's seizures are under control.
With a diet change, Amanda's kidneys are now functioning normally. A year ago we were looking at dialysis in the near future, but it is no longer an issue.
This gives her a better quality of life!
Access to this health care also helps prevent future pain and suffering and avoid higher medical bills for long-term care.

PLANO, Texas (2/4/15)--Athletes trying to make it to the big leagues are far from guaranteed multimillion-dollar contracts and huge endorsement deals. Many of those athletes barely make ends meet while playing in the minor leagues, and they are often a play away from a career-ending injury.
For InTouch CU of Plano, Texas, with $814 million in assets, those journeymen athletes have proven to be a valuable resource when it comes to educating their youngest members. For the last several years, InTouch has partnered with local minor league teams to provide financial education for children and teens.
"I think it's fair to say that most kids would much rather spend their money than save it, so we thought hearing from professional athletes about the importance of planning and saving for unexpected expenses that might come up would be very beneficial," Sherry Cassidy, InTouch CU's manager of public relations and financial education, told News Now.
|Players from the Texas Legends speak about the importance of financial literacy at InTouch CU's "Bank to Achieve" program. (InTouch CU Photo)
InTouch's "Bank to Achieve" program brings in basketball players from the local NBA Development League (D-League) team, the Texas Legends.
As a feeder system into the NBA, the D-League features athletes trying to earn a living and a shot at the NBA.
"These players don't have huge contracts, they can get hurt and not play for a while, or they play overseas in different countries scraping together a living," Cassidy said. "They're very open about their experiences, how they've struggled, what they've gone through to try and make it as a professional athlete, and the parents seem to appreciate that as well."
The program uses a workbook created for a local Girl Scout troop, which came to InTouch looking for a way to earn its money badges. The workbook features financial-themed crossword puzzles and other games, as well as links to resources on InTouch's website.
Diane Gerstner, executive vice president at InTouch, recalled one member--a 14-year-old boy working at his father's company--whose favorite activity was to go to the mall Saturday night and spend the money he'd earned during the week.
"Sherry challenged him to save that money for a little bit and see what happened. A few weeks later, we received a great note from the young man that not only had he started saving, but he found he didn't want to spend the money because he enjoyed seeing his account balance go higher and higher," Gerstner told News Now.
|Members of the Frisco RoughRiders participate in InTouch CU's "Batter Up For Banking" program with some of InTouch's youngest members. (InTouch CU Photo)
Part of the education is showing the children how parents earn, save and spend their money, Cassidy said.
"We want them to see that there's not just endless funds on that plastic card their parents use," she said.
Financial education isn't limited to basketball season for InTouch. It also partners with the local AA baseball team, the Frisco RoughRiders, for "Batter Up for Banking," and it participates in similar programs at local schools, libraries and senior centers.
(This is part of a continuing News Now's new series, "The CU Effect," which gives readers a fresh and in-depth look at how credit unions make a difference in the world every day. Look for the next installment Feb. 18.)

Imagine yourself as a guest in a very crowded event. There are many photographers present; they are all running around and taking photos of everyone. You pose – the flash goes off, and you just walk away. It is very likely that you will never see that photo of yours.
We at Photier hate this. We think photos should be available to you instantly. We make sure that we simplify all the steps in between the click, and you receiving the photo. The face recognition system takes a second to recognize your face in the pool of thousands of people.
We send you the photo, and that's it. The photo doesn't come with extra baggage. You can store it, stare at it, or post it – it's all up to you.
It only takes a few moments for the users to start enjoying the benefits of Photier.
The user downloads the app and uploads his/her image, either from the gallery or takes a selfie on the spot.
The QR code is supplied to the attendees, making each event private to its guests. Only those who are physically present at the event are able to access the photos, and each guests has access to their own photos only – unless otherwise desired.
Photier creates a secure panel for the photographers at each event, allowing them to upload the photos they have taken in a single step.
Photier takes everything from here – recognizes the faces and sends photos to their owners during the event, allowing them to enjoy their photos as they see fit!
Photier has a state of art face recognition system, which allows users to receive their photos within minutes.
The algorithm that compares the profile photos of the users, with the faces in the photos starts working, taking into account numerous factors.
Photier proudly shares the photos with their owners with 99 % accuracy rates
If the photo is not recognized and is matched below a certain confidence level, the system will not share this photo with the end user.
Everyone dresses up and makes a special effort to attend weddings and private parties. Let's be honest thou, guests have to wait for weeks, before the organizers start sending out a photo or two their way.
Corporate events don't really need to be boring. Photier wants to bring the fun back into things. Go on, make that pose, go wild. Photier has your back. (and we make sure your CEO doesn't receive that photo instead of you)
Graduations are the first milestones in the life of any young adult. Why would we want to make the students wait for weeks or sometimes even months before they can receive their photo and proudly display it.
Imagine you are by the pool. You are relaxed, you smile, you look great ! The photographer takes your photos. Now imagine that you have to walk all the way to the reception to find that little room where they keep all the photos. Nightmare. Photier does it's job without bothering you.
These events are usually so chaotic that it is difficult to find the photographer, let alone finding the photo that he took. Most organizers can give up on the idea of distributing photos to their customers after the event. We can deliver thousands of photos to their owners within minutes.
We love sports events and we love attending them. But does anyone ever think that it's not fair that the guests usually get a minimal glimpse of the competitors and the only photos they have of themselves are selfies ? Not fair.
The photographers will be able to take as many photos as they wants until capturing the perfect image. There is no pressure to pick the best photo to share with the customer.
Who wouldn't want to receive their beautifully captured images moments after posing for it. Photier is guarantied to make your guests happy and the event memorable.
You will be choosing to stand out by using this new and exciting technology. Your opponents will have to learn something from you. Be leader, be reformist.
Social media is one of the driving powers of today. Photier allows guests to share professionally taken photos on social media instantly. The bonus is that these photos also have a logo of the event. The event will be promoted in the right places, to the right people.
Printing photos is probably the most time consuming, costly part of the Photographer's job. We are not even mentioning the time spent trying to manually match the photos with the guests… We make these factors disappear.
The problem of photo distribution is resolved as the photos reach their owners in a never done before manner. Photier sends photos to their owners taken from DSLR cameras within minutes. Speed is important.
Please contact us to get more information on the wide range of our packages.
Photier started cooperating with Coca-Cola in April 2019 and became their photo distribution partner. Photier is currently being used in all Coca-Cola events throughout the Caucasus and the Middle East, to successfully deliver all the photos to their attendees.
100+ Events, +100.000 Photos.
Photier is the Proud Partner of Vodafone Istanbul Marathon, as of 2018. Runners instantly receive their marathon photos, without having to search for their badge numbers, all thanks to Photier's unique face recognition system.
6.000+ Runners, 30.000+ Photos
Photier formed numerous partnerships in the automotive industry. Mercedes Benz being one of the leaders of the industry signed Photier, to distribute the photos taken at all of the company's events. The users receive their photos with the Mercedes Logo on them, adding further to the strong presence of the brand.
50+ Events, 20.000+ Photos
Who doesn't love a bit of fun in the workplace? Photier partnered with the Netflix launch of Stranger Things Season 3 to successfully deliver the photos taken at the event. This job was brought to us by Coca-Cola, one of our many current satisfied clients.
2000+ Attendees, 5.000+ Photos
Photier is present in all of the events of Schweppes, who are renowned for their successful launch events and festivals. Thousands of photos are distributed to guests during these events - encouraging them to share photos on social media and adding further value to the brand.
20+ Event, 20.000+ Photos
Photier is happy to cooperate with ICWF, one of the largest wedding exhibitions in India. Photier has been making "happy endings" even happier with its innovative technology, as the wedding organizers no longer have to worry about the photo distribution problem.
10+ Events, 30.000+ Photos

New Beer
The girl had a birthday recently, and one of her friends sent her a long-distance 6 pack of beer, and luckily, the girl was nice enough to share.
The new brew is called "Loft" and it's by the New Belgium brewing company. The same folks who make Fat Tire Ale. Mmm. Fat Tire Ale.
Loft is like a lighter/more watery Fat Tire. It's not bad at all, but it definitely doesn't have the flavor or...um...robustness?...of Fat Tire. So if you see it in a store, you may want to give it a try, but don't order a 12 pack online and have it shipped to your house. You probably won't be impressed.
I also noticed, on the New Belgium website, they have a "I will promise to ride my bike to work at least once a month for the following year. If I cannot ride to work, I will ride for pleasure. If I cannot ride for pleasure well, then something's got to change" pledge. Looks like you can maybe score some free stuff. I'm signing up. Besides, if I end up on a beer mailing list, it won't be the worst list I ever landed on.

So as a yogini I am always in the works of freeing myself from anything materialistic, addictive & tempting. But I have to admit that it is much easier said than done. I got myself away from ciggarettes & alcohol but I am still in the struggles with another addiction of craves that I got…..yoga pants!
Who wouldn't be able to resist a beautiful pair of yoga pants?!? Ah….hello! Here I am at home being all inflamed in my muscles & all I can do is to scroll myself through Instagram & breathe in the inspiration of every beautiful yogini/yogi that is going through my feed. And on top of it – they are all wearing gorgeous yoga pants! So I have had to get myself a few pairs too….cause they will eventually help me do that amazing @yoga_girl handstand!!!
So….here I am admitting to you that I am not free! I do have a terrible addiction, which makes my road much longer than just being able to do a handstand….the addiction of hoarding a wide variety of yoga pants because eventually I think those magic pairs will help me find that teeny tiny bit of bandha in making me sway still in a @yoga_girl handstand!

Hi all,
I recently got my hands on a Polaroid 635CL in excellent conditon, wich is my very first vintage Polaroid camera. I also bought a new pack of 600 film for it. And of course I had to try it out, but when I took a picture there were some vertical lines on when it came out of the camera. First I tought they would go away while the photo is developing, but they were still there when the photo was fully developed.
After looking a for a bit I found out that it could be because of dirty rollers, so I proceeded to clean them as best as I could using a cloth with hot water and some isopropyl alcohol (of course I did it somwhere without a lot of light). And of course I took another picture, but it still has these vertical lines on the same place. Even when looking at the rollers they look verry clean. Did somebody else have this problem? Also here's one of the pictures I took (it's the third picture I ever took using a Polaroid so it might not be perfect, and it's quite random).
This is my very first post here so it might be a good ideo to say that I'm not the best English speaker/writer around here.
And thanks to everyone willing to help me out with this!

Where are you from?
Well guess I'll have to live with it, I didn't know that these lines were this normal. Thanks for letting me know.
And I'm from Belgium. I know this is a French forum too but my French is not much better.
Didoos13 wrote:Yes, sadly, some packs have these kinds of artifacts, wich is a pity, but nearly everybody find this "normal". So we have to take the packfilms "as is". Maybe it'll be better in the future ???
Let's hope these will be less common in the future, but for now I can live with it. Hopefully I have more luck when I buy another pack. And thanks for your reply
appareille impossible i-1
bonjour, je ne trouve pas comment poser ma question ailleurs j'ai acheter un appareille impossible I-1 je n'arrive pas a m'en servir les photo prise en intérieure comme en extérieure quand il n'y a pas un grand soleil son presque noir es que quelqu'un pourrais m'aider svp merci beaucoup cordialement
I also hope this issue with the blue line will be solved in future. The problem is at random. I purchased several packs direct from Polaroid Originals with same date and one pack showed the blue line. Hope they continue to improve the films, not only the color but also the B&W films and the availability of the Spectra format will become better.
J'ai acheté un de ces appareils il y a quelques mois. Après avoir gâché un pack de 8 vues (système de flash beaucoup trop peu puissant), le vendeur me l'a remplacé, sans amélioration. De plus, comme vous, en éclairage extérieur, la bonne exposition est très difficile à obtenir, même en manuel via l'application sur smartphone. Encore deux packs "fusillés". J'ai maintenant trouvé le meilleur emploi pour cet appareil: bien rangé au fond d'une armoire. Bref, c'est une daube. Si quelqu'un de plus futé a réussi à en tirer de bons clichés, je suis "toute ouïe" !
Tout innocent est un coupable qui s'ignore !

text: Hey guys OMG I acutally get to start one of these, and it's in the Epic section too, I'm ****ing stoked from that alone. I've been planning my trip for about 18 months now, and that's when I started reading ride reports and trips and didn't stop. Here, HUBB, youtube and everywhere else. I'm not sure how much of my trip i'll report on. My default state is pretty introverted and non-sharing so I have to really make an effort to write diaries and share things. I'm hoping my facebook will be up to date within days and the blog within a week or so. ADV Rider, I hope to update you guys when I do my blog, detailed text with pictures backing it up is hard, I have the upmost respect for some of the people I've read here who are only 3 days behind and have lovely updates, that's hard work. Anyways, my next post will be my first few days report, hope someone can read and learn from this, they helped me so much in planning, it's nice to give back. Enjoy and ride safe. Edit: I entirely forgot to link my facebook and blog: Short sharp updates here: https://www.facebook.com/travellingent/ Longer stuff here: https://travellingent.wordpress.com/

Article date: 1985/3/1
PubMed ID: 2857784
Journal name: The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics (ISSN: 0022-3565)
Glioma C6 cells were incubated with [14C]arachidonate to label membrane phospholipids. Muscimol, a selective gamma-aminobutyric acid A receptor agonist, but not (-)-baclofen, a selective gamma-aminobutyric acid B receptor agonist, stimulates [14C]arachidonate release from C6 cells as a result of hydrolysis of a small pool of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine by phospholipase A2. This release is facilitated by diazepam and a number of other benzodiazepines such as flunitrazepam, medazepam and midazolam (but very little by clonazepam), although these benzodiazepines per se are inactive in causing the release. In addition to increasing the release of [14C]arachidonate, diazepam in the presence of muscimol promotes the release of [14C] prostaglandin D2. Bicuculline inhibits the action of muscimol and facilitation by diazepam. "Peripheral" benzodiazepine ligand, RO 5-4864 (4'-chlordiazepam) antagonizes the action of diazepam, whereas "central" ligand, RO 15-1788, is inactive. The release of arachidonate metabolites stimulated by muscimol and diazepam is unaffected by Cl- channel blockers, picrotoxin and pentylenetetrazol. Based on these results we propose that in glioma C6 cells (and presumably in normal glia) peripheral benzodiazepine receptor interacts functionally with gamma-aminobutyric acid A type of receptor, which appears not to be linked to picrotoxin sensitive Cl- channel, and may be linked to phospholipase A2.

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) allow the participation of hundreds of students who are interested in a wide range of areas. Given the huge numbers enrolled, it is almost impossible to give complex homework to students and have it carefully corrected and reviewed by a tutor or assistant professor. In this paper, we present a software framework that aims at assisting teachers in MOOCs during correction tasks for mathematics exercises. This framework might suit maths, physics or technical subjects. As a test experience, we apply it to 300+ physics homework bulletins from 80+ students. Test results show our solution can prove very useful in guiding assistant teachers during correction shifts.

The high plank position improves full body strength and stability. It challenges the ability to create full body tension and hold it for a period of time. Here are a few key points that will improve your technique:
Hand position
Position your wrists directly underneath your shoulders – this is our most stable position. Avoid having your hands out in front of your body.
❌ ✔
Shoulder position
In order to create stability and tension through our shoulder joint we have to actively push the floor away. Don't let your shoulder blades sink down towards each other.
❌ ✔
Hip position
We want to maintain a neutral spine and rigid core. Squeeze your glutes and keep your body in a straight line. Avoid raising your hips too high or letting them sag too low.
❌ ❌

Obama: 'We Will' Take Action on Foreign Government that Meddled in US Election
President Barack Obama says the United States will take action against Russia or any other foreign government that tries to meddle in U.S. elections.
"I think there is no doubt that when any foreign government tries to impact the integrity of our elections...we need to take action. And we will," the president told National Public Radio in an interview.
The CIA has concluded that Russian hackers broke into the Democratic Party computers to leak potentially embarrassing emails about the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign with the apparent aim of helping Republican Donald Trump win last month's election.
Top White House officials say such a thing could not have happened without Russian President Vladimir Putin's involvement or direct knowledge.
Obama told NPR that there is still a "whole range of assessments" going on among U.S. intelligence agencies, and he is waiting for a final report on exactly who was involved and why they did it.
Anti-Trump Electoral College Revolt Faces Steep Odds
It's been over a month since Donald Trump pulled off an upset victory over Hillary Clinton, bringing an end to one of the most contentious presidential campaigns in U.S. history.
The result won't be official until Monday, when the 538 members of the Electoral College meet at statehouses across the country to cast their votes -- the ones that will actually decide the next president.
The Electoral College serves as a formality and usually receives little attention. But this year, there is a last-ditch effort to use the Electoral College to deny Trump the presidency.
It's a long shot, but the electoral revolt is injecting one last bit of uncertainty into an election that has been one of the most unpredictable ever.
The drive is being encouraged by a group called the Hamilton Electors, named after Alexander Hamilton, a U.S. founding father who was one of the Electoral College's main architects. Hamilton and the other founding fathers devised the Electoral College as a compromise between those who wanted a direct presidential election and those who wanted Congress to choose the president.
The system was also meant to serve as a safeguard against those unfit for the presidency, a point emphasized by the Hamilton Electors.
If Trump gets all the electoral votes from the states where he won the popular vote, he will have 306 electoral votes, well over the 270 needed for a simple majority. That means for the electoral revolt to succeed, 37 Republicans who are scheduled to vote for Trump would have to abandon him. So far, only one Republican elector has publicly pledged to do so.
