The key to the amount of protection a mouth guard can provide is how well it fits and the materials that it is made of. The expression "you get what you pay for" fits perfectly in this situation. Inexpensive store purchased generic mouth guards simply do not provide much protection and are not durable.
When we make a mouth guard the first step is to make a very precise hard reproduction of the teeth, Then in a specially equipped dental lab multiple layers of a soft resin are adapted to the reproduction under high temperatures and high pressure. The process is called pressure lamination. This produces a tightly adapted durable mouth guard that provides the best level of protection available.
Here are some important facts about why a mouth guard is so critical for preventing sports injuries.
- A properly fabricated mouth guard reduces the rate of concussions and head and neck injuries during college football.
- Dental injuries are the most common form of facial injuries in contact sports.
- An athlete is sixty (60 ) times more likely to receive dental injuries when not wearing a protective mouth guard.
- Every person involved in contact sports has about 10% chance of receiving a facial injury each season.
- The cost for the surgical replanting of a knocked out tooth is approximately $4,000.00 for only the surgical fee.
- The use of a face guard and mouth guard prevents approximately 200,000 high school and college injuries per year.
- A properly fitting mouth guard reduces the chances of having a concussion from a blow to the lower jaw.
- Mouth guards are now a requirement for high school and college football. This resulted in a 50% reduction in mouth injuries.
- The risk of facial injuries is actually higher in basketball than football, yet only 7% of basketball players use mouth guards.
If you or someone you know is involved in any athletic activities, we can help fit them with the right mouth guard to protect their teeth!

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Prior to beginning each tour, the elder statesmen of Afro-pop gospel choir Ladysmith Black Mambazo take a rotating cast of younger singers and retreat to the mountains of South Africa, to meditate and fast until sunrise. It turns out searching for higher ground is a running metaphor: The group's latest album, Long Walk to Freedom, crowns nearly four decades as the centerpiece of a South African scene that has influenced everything from Jamaican roots to American blues to European spirituals... really, anything associated with revival music.
"We wish our music could reach every person in the world," explains lead tenor Albert Mazibuko, who learned singing from an insingoma, a diviner common in South Africa who teaches healing through music. "When we play, we play with our souls. We want our souls to be one."
The group much like its sound has organic roots, winning amateur singing nights in late 1960s Durban, a city on South Africa's eastern coast, in a region still struggling with racism and poverty. And also like its sound, Ladysmith has built collective steam, tirelessly recording and rerecording songs in a trademark a cappella style borrowing from traditional South African railroad mining hymns.
This unique style catapulted Ladysmith into the African mainstream soon after its first recording contract in 1970, and then onto the world stage via Paul Simon's 1986 smash Graceland, still one of the best showcases for how African music can add light to the often droll styling of Westernized pop, the sound of the world's best beatboxers sedating themselves with African koans and practicing ten-part harmonies.
While South African gospel has been pigeonholed in some circles as incessantly preachy, at its best the music is elegiac yet subtle, recalling both the organics of Ornette Coleman who inverts sound by using space as an instrument and Hugh Masekela, the South African jazz trumpeter who explores the possibilities of rhythm with a hard, driving African funk.
Having toured virtually nonstop since the '80s, the group is best understood live, where it improvises sounds and lyrics that come at you in waves. "We are a call and response, call and response place," Mazibuko says. "Our mission from the beginning was not lose hope. If you do not stand strong, you will be destroyed."

I have waited many years to get hold of a nice version of our Highest Possible air pistol, today finally one has been found! As always timing plays a part, Trigger heard someone being told on the phone that we were not interested when he had called in to sell it, 'no get it was called out' and the deal was done!
The Highest Possible has been a very elusive item, perhaps because so few were ever made which then had to survive the next 100 years. I have no exact records of the production figures but the Collectors Guide to Air Pistols by Dennis Hiller suggests that the highest serial number known is 1052 suggesting only 1000 odd were ever made.
Engraved on the L.H.S of the air chamber "WESTLEY RICHARDS HIGHEST POSSIBLE – AIR PISTOL". On the frame near the sear is stamped the serial number, 369, which also appears on various other parts. On the left side of the frame is engraved "WESTLEY RICHARDS & CO. – LONDON W" and near the action latch appears "PATENT 24837 1907". The pistol has black chequered vulcanite grips and a 9 3/4 inch rifled barrel. Rear sight appears to be adjustable for elevation only. Length from tip of barrel to base of butt is 12 1/4 inches. The above design was patented by E. Anson, a relative of W. Anson of the well known partnership Anson & Deeley. The "Highest Possible" was also available nickel plated. Highest serial number seen is 1052. Inside of grips are usually scratched with the serial number of part of it and the rifling appears to be anticlockwise. ( From Air Pistols by Dennis Hiller)

By Ronald Kalyango
The Government has re-launched the construction of the Nyagak mini-hydropower dam located 4km from Paidha town in Zombo district.
The work on the $10m (sh20b) dam, to be undertaken by Spencon Services, is expected to last nine months.
"The funds are available and a competent contractor has been given the assignment,†Simon D'Ujanga, the energy state minister, said.
He was on Tuesday launching the construction works at Ngiya village.
D'Ujanga said the 3.5MW dam, was first launched by President Yoweri Museveni in 2006 and the Government invested over $6m (sh12b).
The project is run by the West Nile Rural Electrification Company, which currently runs a heavy fuel thermal generator station in Arua and serves the region with 18 hours of power per day.
D'Ujanga said after negotiations with different development partners, the Government got a grant from the German government.
He explained that the Government would contribute 10% of the required funds and, therefore, be a shareholder in the Nyagak hydropower plant.
The deputy permanent secretary, Kabagambe Kaliisa, said they had received funds to conduct a feasibility study for a 132KV line from Lira to Nebbi and Arua districts next year. The move is aimed at connecting the region to the main grid.
He also noted that in the short term, extensions at 33KV are to be built from Nebbi to Pakwach. Others will cover Parombo and Panyamur sub-counties.

Why New App Stores are Embracing Open Development
The Apple App Store set the standard for a centralized, trusted marketplace of device-specific software applications. Now, three billion downloads later, technology titans like Intel and Ford are attempting to strike pay dirt with their own app stores.
While Apple's 100,000 strong App Store is the unquestioned champion of the software colosseum, it became clear in interviews that the directors of new stores were taking a distinctly different approach to development. While Apple has been widely criticized for what was perceived as a lengthy and secretive review process, three stores in particular — Twitter's oneforty, Intel's AppUp, and Ford's Sync Open API — each embody a more laissez-faire approach to the app marketplace.
Faith in Community: oneforty
For Laura Fitton, founder of the Twitter app store oneforty, an open development approach is based in an unabashed belief in transparent community. "We're operating in a very open eco-system. The whole ethic of Twitter is very open," she said. She maintains that this means giving developers as large a creative canvass as possible, complete with amenities.
At oneforty, there is no exclusivity agreement, no complex approval process, and they'll even cover the PayPal fees should users want to donate money to a project. "That's in pretty sharp contrast to the policies and legal agreements that other app stores require."
When asked what gives her confidence that oneforty apps will be of a certain quality, Fitton responded, "we're community based, there is no confidence that all apps will be of a certain quality." Rather, she believes, in typical open-source fashion, that a robust community system will help sort the wheat from the chaff. In describing this hands-off approach, Fitton channels Google's mission statement, saying that oneforty only asks developers, "Please don't be horrible to your users."
Courting Developers: Intel AppUp
When Intel began testing the waters for their new netbook app store AppUp, the feedback made it clear that developers did not want to relive a painstakingly long and opaque review process. "The biggest things," said Scott Apeland, Intel's director of the Developer Network, was that developers asked them to "just be clear on the expectations." In return, AppUp designed a decidedly "open and transparent approach," where developers would receive feedback during the review process and have an expected launch time of around 1 week from submitting the initial paperwork.
Though each application is individually tested and approved by a real-life person, the threshold for publication is unmistakably bare bones. Apps must install and uninstall cleanly, contain no malicious code, and alert users when audio or video is being recorded. The minimalist approach seems to stem from Intel's belief that their app store is less about revenue generation, and more about habituating the developer community to design Intel chip-optimized software. After all, netbooks have been widely criticized for slow performance. A zippy user experience could be a major selling point for netbook manufacturers entertaining offers from multiple chip makers.
A Safety Playpen: Ford
When Ford announced its Twitter-friendly car at the Consumer Electronics Show earlier this month, they were quick to allay fears over distracted driving. Ford maintains that integrated steering wheel controls and voice commands are safer than drivers having to fumble around with a smartphone. So, given these sophisticated control mechanisms, wouldn't Ford have to adopt a strict developer procedure to ensure a safe user experience?
Not necessarily, says one Julius Marchwicki, Ford's Product Manager of Mobile Applications, who does not envision having an "approval process" should their app eco-system be freed for open development. "The way our safety standards have been designed is that anyone can develop an app, and put it in the vehicle, and it will meet our strictest safety standards." The app eco-system is a kind of playpen that restrains functionality and style. Apps cannot interface with steering commands, nor can they flash or scroll text. While it is still unknown the extent to which the Sync Open API will resemble typical app stores, Ford hopes that this open approach will leverage the creativity of the developer community without overburdening the company with a personal oversight process.
Which Way is Best? It's Too Early to Tell
The explosive growth of app store popularity has left a Grand Canyon-size ratio between experience and experimentation. With so few years in existence, it might be too early to tell what kind of approach to development is the most strategic. However, it is fascinating to see that new app stores have decided to deviate from a model that is so astoundingly successful, especially since Twitter, Intel, and Ford are not Apple's competitors. This much is certain: With billions on the line, there's no time being wasted waiting to see who's right.

What's in a name, place, or feeling of "home?" Some would say it is the shared familiarity, culture, language . . . a common threading of identity in a place or location where one could trace roots to and have a right to exist. Kurds are the fourth largest ethnic group in the Middle East, one would think numbers alone warrant a place for them; outlined, definitive, and sovereign. As seen in the map below, "The Kurdish Presence," the hiking icons show the millions of Kurds inhabiting these nations:
- 2 million in Syria
- 5 million in Iraq
- 8 million in Iran
- 18 million in Turkey
These indigenous peoples of the Mesopotamian Plains have the largest presence in Turkey (15-20%), and as a result have been largely marginalized and met resistance from the Turkish government. This is where we will focus today's question of human rights as it relates to statehood.
It is a war zone; snipers included. The Turkish government has levied what some in the international community would consider harsh and inhumane conditions on this portion of their population. According to the Amnesty International, Kurds have been subject to 24 hour curfews, denial of burial rights according to custom, "severe electricity, water and food shortages in curfew areas, . . . unable to safely leave their neighborhoods to access healthcare, and ambulances have been denied entry by security forces." The infighting in South East Turkey has seen about 400,000 Kurds displaced. Additionally, the Kurdistan Worker's Party (PKK) have been outlawed, making Kurdish concerns in a way nationally and legally banned. The US and the European partners have been seen by the Kurdish people as oblivious, willfully, toward the plight of these stateless people. But why don't they have a home when in the 1900s Kurds initiated the consideration of a homeland, referred to as "Kurdistan?" It seemed likely when after WWI, upon the defeat of the Ottoman Empire, Western allies allocated a provision for a Kurdish state within 1920 Treaty of Sevres. Yet today, they are still stateless even though Kurds have been successful aiding the war against ISIS/ISIL (PKK, YPG, and PYD). Their efforts have not been rewarded despite their willingness to defend their presence, which has been helping the US-led coalition. Turkey is a globally recognized sovereign state who has shown interest in joining the EU for many years, but the human rights violations prominently continuing against the Kurds is at conflict with EU principles. This places the Kurds in a dire position of perpetual limbo; their plight is known, the sentiment is there, but they are still waiting for action that can result in a realistic location in the Middle East for them. They have had a continued historical and regional presence; the longer this statelessness continues, the higher the probability of conflict that leads to unnecessary deaths on both sides (though mostly Kurdish). With this many people displaced trying to survive in other nations, it seems like it is the right time to persuade Turkey, Iran and Iraq to cede a portion of their border-crossing for the creation of a Kurdish state (they have the largest distributions after all). Iran not being an ally will bring peculiar engagement, but if creating Jews a home was of major importance to the global community after WWII, so should be the effort for a sovereign Kurdistan. These predominantly muslim nations will have more to gain than to lose, if the West and Arab allies work together toward an incentive plan. Until then, the statelessness continues.
This gentleman is in a place, willing to fight for it, but when will this Kurd have a place to call home?

An OSTraining member asked how to make a gallery with Colorbox in Drupal 8.
We're going to walk you through the process of creating a beautiful Colorbox gallery with text overlaying the images.
Step #1. Install the Modules and Libraries
For this tutorial, you will need the following modules, themes and libraries
- The Colorbox module
- A Bootstrap-based subtheme
- The Colorbox library in your Drupal site's /libraries/ folder
Step #2. Create the content for the gallery
- Go to Structure > Content types. Create a new content type, specifically for this gallery
- Create a Image field that is attached to your new content type.
- Also, because this is just going to be a gallery, I removed the Body field from this content type.
Finally, create some content that you can use to test the gallery. You can enter some images manually, or use the "Generate Content" feature in the Devel module.
Step #3. Create the Image Style
- Go to Configuration > Image styles
- Create an image style with the Scale and crop effect. I choose 300 pixels wide and 300 high, but you can choose any size you want for your gallery.
Step #4. Create the view
- Go to Structure > Views > Add new view.
- Select your new content type and choose the "Gallery" type.
- Choose you output your block as a view, not page.
- Choose an 'unformatted list' of 9 'Items per block'
- Add the Field for the image.
- In "Format settings" add this to the "Row class", as in the image below: 'col-sm-4'. This comes from the Bootstrap theme.
- Now in "Advanced Settings" for the view add a CSS class 'container-fluid'.
- Save the View.
Step #5. Place the block
- Go to Structure > Block layout.
- Click "Place block" and choose your new view/block.
At the moment the view won't look very good. However, we're going to apply CSS to the view, and it's not possible to see that inside the Views preview. We need to see the view live on the site.
Step #6. Edit the view
- Go back to edit your view.
- Select the "Content: title" field.
- In the "Rewrite results" area, add the title tag as {{ title }}. This will allow us to style and move the title text.
- Select the "Content: Image" field.
- Update the "Formatter" to be "Colorbox".
- Update "Image Style for content" to use the style you created in Step 2.
Step #7. Add the CSS
Now because I called the view 'Gallery Block', if we add CSS to .view-gallery-block it will apply the CSS only to that view. I added some CSS that will allow the title to be displayed over the image as a caption. The image below shows the gallery grid:
This next image shows an individual image inside a Colorbox pop-up:
Here is the CSS I used:
.view-gallery-block {
margin-top: 1em;
.view-gallery-block img {
width: 100%;
border: 3px solid #337ab7;
padding: 3px;
border-radius: 10px;
.view-gallery-block img:hover {
border-color: #ddd;
.view-gallery-block a {
color: ##28df35;
text-decoration: none;
.view-gallery-block p {
margin: 0 0 10px;
display: inline;
position: relative;
bottom: 60px;
left: 6px;
background: rgba(17, 17, 17, .5);
color: #fff;
padding: 0.4em;
border-radius: 10px;

Roland C.II Walfisch
Produced by Luft Fahrzeug Geselleschaft (L.F.G.), the Roland Walfisch ("Whale") was an interesting design that mounted the upper wing flush with the top of the fuselage, allowing the pilot and gunner to look upwards without any obstruction to their field of view. The plane was deployed in 1916-17. Performance was good, but handling a little tricky. Little other historical information is available.
The C.II burns 6 gallons of aviation fuel per hour of routine usage. The plane had a historical endurance of 4 hours. A full load of fuel and ammo (excluding bombs) costs $32.
Roland C.II Walfisch

Design Notes:
Historical wing area was 280 sf. MG load outs and fuel capacity are a guess. Design payload was 1,000 lbs; no historical value was located. Design aSpeed was 98 mph. Performance calculations were based on historical values for wing area and loaded weight. The weight, cost and HPs of the wings were doubled to increase design weight; the weight was increased another 1% to the historical. The forward Body MG is synchronized, lowering RoF by 10% (see p. W:MP8).
The C.IIa featured revised and reinforced wingtips.

I recently purchased six bottles of a well-known red wine from the Rhone region. As a learning experiment to expand my wine knowledge, I plan to drink one every two years while keeping meticulous notes on how it ages. I'll drink one in 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020, and 2022. By doing this, I'll learn how wine matures and improves throughout its life. I look forward to observing the tannins mellow with time, the fruit transform with age, as bigger, earthier flavors come to the fore. Years from now I'll know more about when a wine peaks, and the subtle clues it expresses when its time has come. Below I will add my tasting notes next to the date the bottle was opened.
Monday: The first bottle of my twelve year test. What a delicious wine! It sports a deep ruby color with sweet tannins. One of the most notable traits is its powerful flavors of ripe, red cherries. For a wine meant to age in the cellar, it sure is drinking well now. I love this wine.
Tuesday: After yesterday's tasting I just had to open a second bottle. With only four more I'll have to forgo the last bottle scheduled for 2022. Still loving those ripe, red cherries! How can these tannins be so strong yet so sweet? What a wine!
Wednesday: The ripe, red cherries are still there. No discernable difference in the tannins after just three days. This leaves me with only three bottles to last twelve years. I'll wait three years between them instead of two–that way I can still see how the last bottle will drink in 2021. I will open NO MORE of this wine until another three years passes!
Thursday: Ripe, red cherries!
Friday: I just opened one of the two remaining bottles. I'm starting to doubt the success of this experiment. When I finally open the last bottle in 2022 I'll remember the ripe, red cherries and the sweet tannins.
Saturday: I just finished the last bottle. In six days I squandered my entire stash of wine as if I were channeling MC Hammer. If in 2022 I ever hear someone talking about this vintage, I'll tell them about the ripe, red cherries and the strong yet sweet tannins.
This week's recommendation:
Francois Chidaine "Clos Habert" Montlouis Sur Loire ($22.99): Made from the Chenin Blanc grape, this is a white that ages beautifully. Just when you think it tastes too sweet, the acidity slices through, ending the floral flavors and leaves you wanting another sip. I dare you to pick up a bottle. Better yet, pick up six and spread them out over a few years.

"Now we are dealing with political corruption and the seizure of power." How Freedom House and experts assess Moldovan democracy
The Republic of Moldova keeps the status of a country with a hybrid regime or transitional government in 2018 as well, being one of the countries with the highest risk of slipping to authoritarianism, alongside Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia and Kirgizstan. Moldova is considered a partly free country in terms of realization of political rights and civil liberties, shows the Freedom House reports Nations in Transit and Freedom in the World 2018, IPN reports.
According to the Nations in Transit report, Moldova this year has a democracy score of 4.93/7, as last year. Moldova achieved the best result in corruption – 6 out of 7. This is followed by national democratic governance – 5.75, local democratic governance – 5.50, independent media – 5.00, judicial framework and independence – 5.00, electoral process – 4.00 and civil society – 3.25.
During the course of 2017, political processes were dominated by the adoption of a new, mixed voting electoral system. Civil society was quite active in 2017, while relations between the government and the civic sector deteriorated. The media sector continued to be politicized, facing the same new-old challenges. An outdated legal framework, excessive influence from politicians and oligarchs, limited independence for the broadcasting regulatory authority, unfair competition on politicized advertising market, and the use of the media for political purposes continued to hamper Moldovan media independence.
The justice reform stagnated in 2017. The appointment procedure for judges and key officials remained one of the main problems of this sector and continued to be a source of concern, especially when it comes to candidates' integrity. Lack of progress and reforms in the justice sector led the European Union (EU) to announce in October its decision of cutting budgetary support program for judicial reforms and stop the last tranche of support in this sector in the amount of €28 million.
Anticorruption initiatives did not contribute to reducing corruption in 2017, as none aimed at depoliticizing public institutions and regulatory agencies. Open competitions for positions of responsibility were nontransparent in most instances, organized not by merit but instead relying on controversial regulations and political loyalty to, or membership of, the ruling political group.
The Moldovan economy managed to slightly recover after the decline from 2014-2016 and registered a 3 percent growth in 2017. However, Moldova remained the country with the lowest GDP per capita in the region. The Transnistrian conflict resolution saw some progress, including signed agreements on the apostilization of educational documents issued in Transnistria, as well as the opening of the bridge across the Nistru River between villages Gura Bicului and Bychok for traffic of light vehicles. Towards the end of the year, due to the lack of real reforms, the passing of contradictory laws, and wiggling out of international commitments, external partners' distrust in the government led to the postponing of EU macro-financial assistance in the amount of €100 million.
In the Freedom in the World 2018, which is quoted by the portal bursa.ro, Freedom House concludes that political rights and civil liberties around the world deteriorated to their lowest point in more than a decade in 2017. For the 12th consecutive year, countries that suffered democratic setbacks outnumbered those that registered gains. Moldova this year has a score of 61 out of 100, as opposed to 62 last year.
According to the nongovernmental organization Freedom House, the global tendency is to strengthen authoritarian regimes and to weaken democracies: 45% of the countries are considered free, such as Finland, Sweden and Norway; 30% – partly free, such as Moldova and Georgia, while 25% – non-free (authoritarian regime – dictatorship), such as Russia, Belarus and Turkey. 39% of the global population lives in democratic countries, 24% in partly free countries, while 37% in non-free countries.

7) Intake of Psyllium Husk or Powder :

The dosage recommended is 2.5 g of Husk or Powder with 300-350 ml of water or Juice and this can be consumed twice a day. It is very important to drink enough liquid because this may block the throat. Humans suffering from swallowing issues or oesophageal narrowing are advised not to have the Psyllium.

New 35mm Prints!
A Touring Package of Four Films Curated by Christopher Nolan
September 25 – October 1
(1986, 1991, 2000) dir Quay Brothers [67 min; 35mm]
Featuring IN ABSENTIA, THE COMB, STREET OF CROCODILES and the world premiere of Christopher Nolan's QUAY. In all new 35mm prints!
"American identical twins working in London, stop motion animators Stephen and Timothy Quay (born 1947 in Norristown, Pennsylvania) find their inspiration in Eastern European literature and classical music and art, their work distinguished by its dark humor and an uncanny feeling for color and texture. Masters of miniaturization, they turn their tiny sets into unforgettable worlds suggestive of long-repressed childhood dreams. These three Quay masterworks, selected by director Christopher Nolan, feature broken pencils and lead shavings in IN ABSENTIA (2000; "a dazzling piece of work" – The Guardian); a porcelain doll's explorations of a dreamer's imagination in THE COMB (1991; "most beautiful of their recent films" – The New Yorker); and the nightmarish netherworld of STREET OF CROCODILES (1986; "their crowning achievement" – Film Comment); and for the first time ever, QUAY (2015), Nolan's new short film revealing the inner workings of the Brothers' studio." – Notes from the Film Forum, NYC
"Stop-motion surrealism? Meet the Quay brothers." by Tom Russo, The Boston Globe
"To enter the impossible, haunted night of a Quay Brothers film is to become complicit in one of the most perverse and obsessive acts of cinema." – Michael Atkinson, Film Comment
"Eerily moving. These astonishing artists, working in an unlikely form, awaken our senses. They combine a demiurgic, Caligari-like mastery over their creations with the gentle dream archeology of Joseph Cornell: their puppets look less like things invented than like things discovered." – Terrence Rafferty, The New Yorker
"One of Christopher Nolan's greatest achievements! A dazzling collection of experimental shorts…the program forces viewers to open their eyes to a different kind of cinematic experience." – Indiewire
Supplemental Reading:
In preparation for our screenings of THE QUAY BROTHERS ON 35MM, we've compiled a selection of articles and reviews about the films as well as Christopher Nolan's involvement with this new program. Read more on Brattle Film Notes→

FIREFLY – A Light In The Black
Just finished watching the TV series FIREFLY, all 14 episodes, (for the 3rd time) and there is no doubt that this was the most unjustly cancelled SF series of modern times. I was never much of a Buffy/Angel fan (though I enjoyed most of what I saw), but I felt that FIREFLY was in an entire other league. All the elements were there – an intriguing background and mutliple settings; a fascinating ensemble of characters, excellently acted; a keen eye for compelling characters and situations; an excellent ear for dialogue and pinpoint accuracy wit. Damn, I could go on and on with the flagwaving, but all I'll say is that as a writer I find Josh Whedon's work with FIREFLY (and SERENITY the movie) to be inspiring. I can give no higher commendation. Me and SuperSusan are going to sit down to watch the movie tomorrow night, and maybe take time to look at the DVD extras again. Just watching those actors, those characters, that richly detailed background, the surprising stories (and dammit, the stories that we`ll never get to see because of some wang-bao-dahn of a Fox executive who durnt unnderstan it!)
Or will we? It's entirely possible that some insolent yet divinely inspired writer might be moved to create a new stage for those characters (subtly altered/rebadged/new paint job) to go forth and have totally dynamite, sunquaking, continuum-shattering adventures in. I mean, you never know.
Other Whedon-related marvelosity – saw Dr Horribles Singalong Blog today. An absolute joy and a hoot to behold. Man, surely there`s going to be more? It can't end there!

Korean compound team returns 2 world champions in 2018
Korea's incumbent eight-athlete compound squad – four men and four women – successfully saw off challengers to return unchanged for the 2018 season following the last selection tournament in Yecheon, Korea on 4 April.
The women's team retains reigning World Archery Champion Song Yun Soo and 2015 worlds winner Kim Yunhee, along with So Chaewon and Choi Bomin. Song, who finished third in the selection ranking, received bonus points due to her current world title – although would have made the top-four team without it.
Kim Jongho, Choi Yonghee, Hong Sung Ho and Kim Taeyoon remain the men's side.
Compound women
(Ranked by final order in selection tournament.)
1. So Chaewon – Scored highest international ranking round of all compound women in 2017 with 709/720.
2. Choi Bomin – Former world team champion as a recurve archer. Reigning compound winner of the Asian Games.
3. Song Yun Soo – Korea's second compound women's World Archery Champion from Mexico City in 2017.
4. Kim Yunhee – Korea's first compound women's World Archery Champion from Copenhagen in 2015.
Eliminated: Oh Yoo Hyun, Oh Ji-Eun, Lee Yejin, Lee Hyerim
Compound men
(Ranked by final order in selection tournament.)
1. Kim Jongho – Two-time compound mixed team World archery Champion, two-time compound Universiade Champion.
2. Choi Yonghee – Scored Korea's first compound international win with gold at the Hyundai Archery World Cup stage in Antalya back in 2014.
3. Hong Sung Ho – 20 years of age and shooting in his second international season in 2018.
4. Kim Taeyoon – silver medallist at the Universiade in Gwangju in 2015, fourth in 2017.
Eliminated: Yang Yongho, Yang Jaewon, Min Lihong, Kim Kwang Sub
The Korean recurve line-up for the first stage of the Hyundai Archery World Cup in Shanghai is expected to be announced on 16 April; Kim Woojin and Lee Eun-Gyeong lead selection with one phase to go.

AprašymasIn an age of minimalists, Eileen Pollack is a writer of rare generosity. The women and men in The Rabbi in the Attic are complex, vivid people to whom something happens. Their stories take place in small towns in the Catskills, a laboratory of mutant mice in nowhere Tennessee, the backwoods of New Hampshire, the "City of Five Smells" in America's heartland—worlds rendered with such love and intensity that the simplest objects seem magical. Many of the narrators look back on their pasts. But don't expect to be lulled by nostalgia. Expect to laugh. To be jolted. And to be moved. Like most of us, these characters are struggling to understand what they have gained and lost by abandoning the passions and moral certainties of youth. As the narrator of the first story discovers when "barbarian" rock fans invade her town, it can be terrifying to be knocked from the "tiny fixed orbit" of conventional life. But if a person can stretch her imagination far enough, she might also be able to glimpse an "elsewhere" beyond the boundaries of ordinary human limitations. This battle between the real and ideal is taken to mythic heights in the title novella, in which a novice rabbi must try to evict her Orthodox predecessor from the house provided by her prickly congregation. Only when she tempers her enthusiasm for the new ways with compassion for those who follow the old ways can Rabbi Bloomgarten begin to care for their souls. Eileen Pollack writes from a Jewish point of view, but her subject is the search for principles that we must all undertake in a world in which religious truths are no longer handed down from parent to child. Just as one of her characters decides to become a "value assessor," the author herself helps us to sort through the jumble of objects, ideas, and memories in our own attics. In doing so, she appeals to our minds and our hearts. Her characters teach us that imagination and empathy are our best hope if we are to understand—and perhaps transcend—the pain in our world. Her language is lyrical, rhythmic, and lush. The images in her stories—a chef's severed hand, a plummeting air conditioner, a village sunk beneath a reservoir—will stay in your mind long after you have finished her book.

So as some of you may know, I was happy to find out that two shoots I styled were featured in magazine New African Woman! I'm not one who is opposed to 'segregation' but i love celebrating my roots and where I come from!!
Editor Regina Jane Jere describes New African Woman to be the magazine for the discerning, women of substance. It aims to inspire rather than impose, expertly advise rather than dictate and tastefully portray the abundant and diverse black women's beauty, other than cheapen it!
For the first shoot, I worked with Anna Njie founder of Fashion 4 Africa along with a lovely team; Photographer: Karl Lake, Hairstylist: Adeola Olasebikan, Make-Up Artists: Reinett Mettle, Fozia Mahmood and Clarisse Bless and Models: Samira Hashi (winner face of fashion 4 Africa 2011), Natalie Delatte, Yvvonne Akwetey, Haddy Toure and Sade Sanusi.
Here is a peek!!
The Second shoot I done was with yet again, a lovely team; Photogrpher: Ernest Simons, Hair : Marianne Simons, Make-Up Artist: La Toya Hay and Model Nana Afua Antwi (who is current Black hair magazine cover model and winner of Top Model of Colour 2010).
Check out my behind the scenes post of this shoot by clicking here!

Enough. Stop this victim card politics Mr. Shah! Muslims aren't in danger in India.
No Muslim I know feels unsafe in India at least in my part of the country because he is a Muslim. There may be some Muslims who feel unsafe there may be some Hindus who feel unsafe but it has nothing to do with belonging to any community. It's time to look inwards. We are victims of each other but also protector of each other too. Muslims are not safer or more unsafe as compare to other Indians.Read more

Update (0815ET): Amid mass downgrades this morning, it appears the lock-up-expiration-driven selling has accelerated as BYND shares are down 20% in the pre-market, back at 5-month lows.
Jefferies, Wells Fargo and JPMorgan were among banks that lowered price targets on the stock, according to Bloomberg data.
Under the lockup arrangement, about 75% of shares outstanding become eligible for sale today, according to an Oct. 28 note from Sanford C. Bernstein. Beyond Meat was already down 29% month-to-date ahead of the expiry.
* * *
Did the fake meat bubble just burst for real?
Despite a revenue beat and guiding higher than expected, BYND shares plunged after hours to 5-month lows...
The headlines look great:
3Q EPS +6.0c vs. loss/share 24.00c q/q - first profitable quarter
3Q net revenue $92.0 million, +37% q/q, above estimate $82.2 million
3Q adjusted Ebitda $11.0 million, +60% q/q, above estimate $6.77 million
And looking forward, the company raised guidance:
BYND sees FY net revenue $265 million to $275 million, saw above estimate $262.4 million.
BYND sees FY adjusted Ebitda $20 million, above estimate $14.3 million
But, while the shares remain in the red afterhours, they are extremely volatile...
CEO Ethan Brown:
"We are very pleased with our third quarter results which reflect continued momentum across our business and mark an important milestone as we achieved our first ever quarter of net income."
"We remain focused on expanding our distribution footprint, both domestically and abroad, building our brand, introducing new innovative products into the marketplace, and bolstering our infrastructure and internal capabilities to fuel our future growth."
One potential explanation for the weakness is that investors could be locking in gains ahead of expected weakness on the lockup expiry tomorrow.

Want to Get 6 Pack Abs 237% Faster while Training at Home and Eating Tasty Foods in Just 6 Weeks Like These Guys.....
FAQ - We Answer All Your 6WeekSixPack Questions!
For anyone who is looking to lose fat fast and working out at home. It does not matter if you are in your 20's or 50's. Male or Female. Have the last 10 pounds to lose or have 70+ pounds to lose. The powerful 3 strategies we use and that was created from scratch to work together and in synergy to help you burn fat fast and get ripped, even though very powerful, can be used by anyone. A great example to see how people of different ages, sexes and goals have achieved all great results using the 6weeksixpack is to check the top 10 best body transformations from our latest 6WeekSixPack Competition in the video below.
1. The 6WeekSixPack Challenge is just six weeks long. Most other programs are 12 weeks or longer. You don't just get results fast but you get better results in six weeks with our program then with most other 12-week programs.
2. The 6WeekSixPack Challenge has more social proof than anyone else online. Over 230,000 people have used our program. And these success stories are NOT friends, or private clients, these are people from all over the world who simply followed our program, people just like you.
3. The 6WeekSixPack Challenge is a complete system, not just workouts or diet but workouts, diet and motivational and if you current system lack any one of these it is out of date and will never get you the results you deserve.
4. The 6WeekSixPack Challenge is not some NEW program. The 6WeekSixPack Challenge has been around for over 5 years now. It's been proven to work for years, month after month. It will work for you.
How quickly you get 6 pack abs will depend on how much fat you have to lose. So let's look at some results of the last 5 years to give you a better understanding of how fast you will get 6 pack abs. The average amount of fat that is lost is around 15 to 20 pounds. The most amount of fat we have ever seen lost by someone on the 6weeksixpack was around 38 pounds. So depending on how much fat you have to lose, you might or might not get 6 pack abs within the actual 6 weeks. But the 6WeekSixPack was designed to help you lose fat and get 6 pack abs as fast as possible.
But if you have for example 100 pounds to lose like I had it could take you 6 months to lose all that fat. But if you were using another program that might take you a year. So no matter how much fat you have to lose, the 6WeekSixPack will help you do so in the fastest possible way and if you don't get 6 pack abs in 6 weeks then just imagine how long it would have taken if you used a normal 12 week program.
We use a very powerful workout mix and not just one type of workout like cardio or muscle building for the full 6 weeks. Not only has this been shown to be the fastest way to drop fat but also the best way to create a healthy, stronger body. So we use a 4 workout mix that includes HIIT Cardio, Full Body Weight Training, Core Workouts and Muscle Building workouts.
This mix will help you burn fat fast, create a strong functional body, add some muscle and shape to your body, make you fitter and increase your flexibility. Everyone one of our workouts also uses my patent pending HMS method to make sure you burn the most amount of calories and get the best possible results for the time you spend workout out. Our workout time ranges from 25 – 35 minutes.
The diet is a MEAT based so sorry but at this stage this is not a vegetarian diet. I call my diet the High Performance Eat what You Need Diet.
What makes it different from most other diets is first of all that due to my Fitness Chef background and the fact that I just LOVE food, all the foods you will eat is TASTY!
Second of all, where most other diet programs are based on just ONE strategy e.g. high protein, high fats, low carbs or Intermitted Fasting, or Calorie Cycling etc my diet is actually based on all of them and more. See the fact is that no one diet will ever provide you with everything you need to burn fat fast and permanently. That is why we use a combination of some of the most powerful strategies to make sure you get the best results possible and never hit a plateau like you do with most diet when their Shelf life is come to an end. You also get to eat some tasty CHEAT meals each week and in fact we flat out tell you to do so as a cheat meal can actually help you get even better results!
A lot of the workouts and exercises uses just bodyweight but we do bring in some equipment like Dumbbells and Exercise bands to make sure your continue to progress and continue to get results from day one until you are ripped.
Then you get your money back! I am not interested in taking your money unless you actually get results. However, I know that if you follow this powerful step by step system then you will get the results you deserve.
So if you are here to CHECK OUT the program and don't want to work hard and stick to the program then this is not for you. But if you are ready to get results like never before and do so in just 6 weeks and are prepared to put in the work then this is for you. However, regardless of why you want to take the challenge or if you are going to give it 100% or not, if you feel it's not for you than simply request a refund and we will give you back every cent you invested!

Those two statements are true: - A subset of DDs care about doing stable releases. The rest of DDs don't care. - A subset of DDs care about doing 'rolling'. The rest of DDs don't care. The release team obviously cares about stable releases, and I mostly read the individual positions of RT members in this thread as "if we do 'rolling', it will be harder to do stable releases." Their position is completely understandable. It's likely that doing 'rolling' will impact stable releases in some ways. Some of the impact might be negative, some might be positive. But what we (the project) need to decide on is where we want to go. After all, we could decide not to do stable releases, or to do them every six months instead of every two years. The current choice of doing stable releases every two years is there only because a large subset of DDs care about doing that. It seems that the 'rolling' idea has some supporters. So what we need to do is: 1. determine one or more action plans around the 'rolling' idea, and their impacts on all the parts of the projects (including the process of doing stable releases). This thread provides great input about that, and badly needs someone to do a summary (hint hint). 2. determine who is in support of each action plan, through a GR or a poll. There are some 'cheap' ways (for the project) to do 'rolling'. For example, we could decide to: [Plan A -- s/testing/rolling/:] - rename testing to rolling - advertise it as something end-user friendly - manage it exactly like testing (freeze it even for 6 months, etc) That would have a very limited impact on the release team AFAICS. Or we could decide to implement the 'frozen' plan: [Plan B -- rolling+frozen:] - do Plan A. - But instead of freezing rolling, fork it to a 'frozen' branch, and continue the normal 'rolling' process. This plan clearly has a severe impact on the preparation of stable releases. There are "compromise" solutions, too: [Plan C -- freeze rolling before forking frozen:] - do plan A. - But When the release team decides to do a general freeze, rolling is frozen for a few months to maximize user testing and developer attention. After two to four months, 'frozen' is forked from 'rolling', and the normal 'rolling' process resumes. (And of course, there's:) [Plan B -- do not change anything] Can anyone think of other plans? Dear Release Team members, what would you think of Plan A? Are there conditions under which Plan C would be acceptable from your POV? - Lucas

This morning I joined 700 volunteers downtown to staff the Fighters Victory Parade route. It was cold and wet and windy - but we kept on smiling.
Some fans were waiting since 6 am!
Volunteers gathered at Sapporo City office at 7.30 am and we got bibs, gloves, chemical heat pads and trash bags - then we set out in groups of 30 to pre-decided spots with volunteer leaders.
My spot was south of Parco, on the main street. The main job was to move the barriers into place, then chat to the fans and keep them entertained in the three hours before the parade arrived.
Near me were fans from Obihiro, and others who had handmade signs and handfans. I even met Haru the Fighters support-dog.
When the players cars and bus arrived us volunteers had to crouch down in front of the barriers and hold them - to make sure nothing fell down. But we could quickly look over our shoulders at the players :-)
Then after the parade we had to take away the barriers, pick up trash - and most difficult was to remove the wooden filling to the tram lines so the streetcar could start again.
It WAS cold. But FUN!

While Massachusetts students came out on top in 4th and 8th grade math and reading as measured by the recently-released National Assessment of Educational Progress exam (aka "the nation's report card"), there's work to be done to address a persistent gap in achievement between white and minority students. Governor Patrick and state Secretary of Education Paul Reville have some plans in the works that aim to do just that.

SACRAMENTO — State campaign finance officials investigating an $11 million donation made last year by an Arizona nonprofit criticized for not disclosing its donors have reached a settlement with the group, said a state official with knowledge of the deal.
Ann Ravel, chairwoman of the Fair Political Practices Commission, is expected to announce the agreement at a noon news conference Thursday in Sacramento, according to the official, who requested anonymity because he was not authorized to provide any details of the deal.
The Arizona group is called Americans for Responsible Leadership and claims to promote "general welfare" by educating the public on government accountability.
Calls to the group were not returned late Wednesday.
A year ago, Ravel and Attorney General Kamala Harris opened an inquiry into the group when it refused to say who had bankrolled last October's huge donation to the California-based Small Business Action Committee. The committee used much of the money to oppose Proposition 30, Gov. Jerry Brown's tax-hike initiative, and support Proposition 32, aimed at restricting unions' use of dues for political purposes.
In last November's election, Prop. 30 passed and Prop. 32 was defeated.
Though the Arizona group is registered as a 501(c)(4) nonprofit — a distinction that allows it to keep its donors secret for federal tax purposes — Ravel and Harris argued that under new California rules, the group had to fess up.
Under court order, Americans for Responsible Leadership revealed that the money it pumped into the state's ballot wars came through two groups, one of which had ties to billionaire brothers David and Charles Koch, the oil magnates who fund numerous conservative causes.
But those groups were not required to fully disclose their donors either, and Ravel and Harris vowed not to stop digging until they could trace the source of every dollar given.
Thursday's announcement will likely be a last hurrah in Sacramento for Ravel, a former Santa Clara County counsel who next week starts a new job in Washington, D.C., on the Federal Election Commission.

Just a quick update for those keeping tabs on the LG Genesis (which, up until Verizon decided not to offer it, was previously known as the "enV Pro") for U.S. Cellular: look for it to hit the shelves on June 9th for $149.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate.
In other news: that $149.99-after-rebate pricetag is the same thing they're asking for the HTC Merge, which hit their shelves as the sun came up this morning. (And for those paying extra close attention: yep, the very same HTC Merge that Verizon decided to delay forever until eventually deciding to not sell it in their own shops, but to allow third party retailers to sell it to those who requested it. It's a very special week of hand-me-downs for U.S. Cellular, isn't it?)

Jim Patrick
Shortly after graduating from Clemson University, Jim decided to pursue his interest in real estate and joined Tom and Cindy's team as their assistant listing manager. Learning the business from a top producing team allowed him to gain more knowledge and experience in a year than many agents do in a decade. He always strives to be constantly learning, evolving and providing his clients with the best tools and information possible.
Jim brings a fresh approach to real estate that focuses on achieving his clients' goals while also making the home buying or selling process as enjoyable and stress free as possible. He believes that real estate revolves around the customer, not the home, so he prefers to act as a consultant for his clients versus being a salesman. Entering the business at a young age, he realized the value in providing exceptional service through hard work, communication and a few key pieces of technology.
When he has time to slow down, Jim enjoys traveling, seeing live music and spending time with his wife and two kids.

Because why wait until the Olympics or next international competition to learn about a new sport?
By OZY Editors
The Rise of African Netball
Not long after basketball was invented in Massachusetts in 1891, a "less strenuous" women's version emerged. The aim of the new game — known as netball and played by more than 20 million worldwide — was to let ladies engage in a sport while maintaining their feminine decorum. Jump to now: These days, feminine decorum is the last thing you'll see at international netball tournaments. It's an intense, fiercely competitive sport, and it's dominated by powerfully built, brilliantly athletic women. And after decades of dominance by Australia and New Zealand, many of the world's top netballers now hail from Africa. Read the story here.
Bringing Cricket to the Masses in India
Indians' mad passion for cricket can be difficult for outsiders to grasp, and when a match of true national importance is on TV, hundreds of millions tune in to watch. But the sport, long valued for its gentlemanliness and its place in Indian history, is changing — and not every fan is pleased. The Indian Premier League, a more commercially accessible version of the game that the late Robin Williams joked was "basically baseball on Valium," could eventually replace traditional forms of the sport. The talent level is impressive, the pace is fast and games tend to be louder than the decor on a Mumbai taxi. There's also booming music, fireworks and — yes — even cheerleaders. Read the story here.
Canada's Expanding Pastime: Curling Is Chess on Ice
Curling is always a top contender for the most accessible sport in the Olympics, full of people you could easily see yourself having a beer with. But it requires a bit of coordination to slide across ice and aim heavy rocks down the curling sheet, and it requires a sharp tactical mind. And the sport is gradually picking up speed outside of Canada: Now you can go curling at USA Curling-affiliated clubs that have sprung up all over the map, from San Diego to Richmond, Virginia. There are currently 165 clubs in 42 states. Read the story here.

I know. It's been quite a while since my last update on Mom so I won't keep you waiting.
Mom is doing good. At least as good as can be expected. There have been a few rough days and she is really slowing down--slowing down enough that some days it's all I can do to get one real meal into her. But after a few slow days she will surprise me by being up for several hours and eating three meals in one day.
Her dementia is progressing robbing more of her memory on a monthly basis. She hasn't had any idea who I am for a couple of months now and just about every day she asks if I know anything about her boys. One day last week after I explained I was her son Dan, she gave me a scolding for not introducing myself to her.
Well anyway, Mom is slowing down but still hanging in there.
The picture? That's where I want to be. I'm tired of the snow, the cold and the rain. I want to sit on the beach, smoke cigars and drink beer!

The Writers' Club
Forget Facebook, forget Second Life, The Writers' Club is the next big thing on the Internet. The Writers' Club is where both writers and lovers of short stories get to meet, publish, read, and discuss the writers' promising contributions. As any other Internet virtual community, the website gives readers the facility to create a list of their favorite writers. The website maintainers have noticed that readers tend to favor writers already favored by the readers' favorite writers. For example, if John likes the stories written by Alice, then many of the readers who likes John's stories also like Alice's. Needless to say, John's readers tend to also admire Alice's favorite writers too.
The website would like to start a recommendation service based on this observation. Continuing with the above example, the website would like to recommend Alice (and her favorite writers, and their favorite writers, and so on) to all of John's readers. Of course, the recommendation service has to be smart enough not to recommend a writer already favored by the reader receiving the recommendation.
Your program will be tested on one or more test cases. The first line of a test case specifies two positive integers: T and N where T is the total number of users (not exceeding 100,000) and N is the number of writers (not exceeding 100). N line follows, one for each writer. Each line is made of one or more names, the first being the name of a writer, and the remaining being the names of admirers of that writer. For example:
writer reader1 reader2 … readerd
Where writer is the writer's name, reader1 … readerd are the names of the writer's admirers. A name is a sequence of one or more lower-case letters, no longer than 16 characters. Names are unique throughout the test case. Names are separated by one or more spaces.
The last line of the input file is made of two zero's.
For each test case, the first line of the output should be:
--- CASE k
Where k is the test case number (starting at 1), and '-' is the minus sign.
Following that, there should be zero or more lines, one line for each writer being recommended. The format is:
writer reader1 reader2 ...
Where writer is the name of the writer to be recommended for reader1, reader2, and so on. The output lines should be sorted alphabetically according to writers, and for each writer, readers should also be sorted alphabetically. No writer should be recommended for himself. All names in the output are separated by a single space.
Sample Input
7 3 john paul ringo alice paul john bob alice sunny cher 5 3 tantawi taha najeeb aqqad najeeb ehsan taha aqqad najeeb 0 0
Sample Output
--- CASE 1 alice ringo bob john paul ringo --- CASE 2 taha ehsan tantawi aqqad ehsan
