Can't find the answer your looking for, send me a message from the support page
Just delete the following files (if they are there):
Note you might not want to remove HMBlkAppKit as you may have another program which requires it! So remove at your own risk
Erm, good question. Last time i checked it worked in Logic Studio .. best thing you can do is just give it a try and use the support page to tell me of your success (or otherwise)
Because at the moment I don't know what they should be. So Im open for ideas. My plan is (at least for Logic) to make a spotlight plugin which allows you to search on the data you enter. I might standadize a few elements when I get that working so I can extract them with a bit more intelligence.
Well Live only supports AudioUnits with Generic or Carbon GUI's not the Cocoa one used by Notes. Its in my known issues and I should fix it at some point.
In Logic if you close the window you can manage to open it and it not show your notes (there there, just double click the blue button). Obviously I need to prod the window to redraw a little more often.

Cities looking to provide incentive for the construction of accessory dwelling units are increasingly released "permit ready plans" to help the cause.
City of Stockton
Northern San Joaquin Valley transit officials are eying a $100 billion Bay Area transportation measure to potentially fund a $1 billion rail tunnel for two commuter railroads to bring workers to the East Bay and Silicon Valley.
The Sacramento Bee
A city once infamous for municipal bankruptcy is now setting a standard for public transit technology.
Capital Public Radio
Uncertainty as to whether cap-and-trade funding would continue past 2020 and opposition to the initial operating segment leaving out the city of Merced were two issues that arose during a Assembly Transportation Committee hearing of the plan.
Fresno Bee
Europe is well known for electric powered trams and trains, but cities still operate diesel buses, just like in the United States. That will change in Amsterdam—all diesel buses will be replaced by battery-electrics by 2025, reports Dutch News.
Dutch News.nl
Stockton, California symbolized the worst effects of the Great Recession on local governments—not to mention, to some, California's decline.
Before Detroit's bankruptcy, Stockton held the ominous title of largest city in the U.S. to go bankrupt. Unlike Detroit, it was largely tied to the foreclosure crisis. Home prices have jumped 30% in the last year. What caused the turnaround?
The Sacramento Bee
San Bernardino was the third city in California to file for bankruptcy last year. Within the past year it has descended from a model of crime reduction to a crime-plagued city.
The New York Times
As the fear of more local government bankruptcies rises, William Fulton argues that sprawling development patterns play a key role in leading cities to run in the red.
Nate Berg takes a look at the seven biggest cities to have filed for bankruptcy in the last two decades, the largest of which officially broke the bank as of yesterday.
The Atlantic Cities
Stockton, a city of 300,000 in California's ailing Central Valley, may become the largest city in the U.S. to declare bankruptcy. Agreements with public employee unions and major bond creditors may be all that stand in the way of default.
The New York Times - U.S.
Just as failing industries marked the decline of the Midwest after WWII (hence the name 'Rust Belt'), the new declining cities will be denoted by their percentage of foreclosures, found particularly in California, the Southwest, and Florida.
International Business Times
Low fuel prices, high corn prices, and a new CA regulation that penalizes the energy intensity necessary to convert corn to fuel are hurting the industry.
San Francisco Chronicle

The City of Stockton, California votes to impose a temporary moratorium on the demolition of potentially historic buildings to allow staff time to create a permanent ordinance.

The Stockton Record

In response to the City of Stockton's attempts to block a lawsuit by citizens' group Save Old Stockton concerning demolition of several historic hotels, a California judge granted a temporary injunction to allow time for the lawsuit to proceed.

...Julie 16:36, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for contributing to the Harry Potter Wiki! Please note, we use British spelling, syntax, and grammar on this Wiki (e.g. "defence" instead of "defense", and "practise" instead of "practice" when it is a verb). We use British titles as well (e.g. "Philosopher's Stone" instead of "Sorcerer's Stone", and "Minister for Magic" instead of "Minister of Magic"). If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. Thanks. --JKoch(Owl Me!) 18:22, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
Haha, yeah, that confuses me sometimes, but I'll try to keep that consistent.
Using Preview
Hello EmmyG, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep recent changes and page histories from being flooded. Thanks, The Knights Who Say Ni 15:04, October 7, 2010 (UTC)
Right-o. For some reason, I keep missing little typos when I look at in preview mode, but I'll work on that.
Re: British spelling
Yeah, it used to slip right by me, too; being an American, I had to adapt. But I've gotten used to it. I've even gotten into the habit of referring to the Philosopher's Stone as such, and not the Sorcerer's Stone. --Cubs Fan (Talk to me) 19:43, October 12, 2010 (UTC)
re: quick question
I would say that yes, make the page with the redirect link to the MoM, like you said, that way it'll be searchable. By the way, good job editing/cleaning up pages. :-) I'm on here a lot since I got laid off, so if you ever need help with anything just let me know. --BachLynn(Accio!) 00:18, October 19, 2010 (UTC)
Haha, yea I got addicted after getting laid off (and got sick of reading), if you notice I've accumulated almost 6000 edits and I've only been editing for like 3 1/2 months, lol. I'm kind of hoping maybe eventually to be considered for admin. At least that's my goal along with finding a real paying job, lol! --BachLynn(Accio!) 00:46, October 19, 2010 (UTC)
I put regime because I couldn't think of what to put.

In future, please be sure to fill out the information template that is provided on the upload page, in particular citing the source from which the image comes from, and adding categories. This is to help keep images organised and catalogued, and to provide clear sourcing for all uploads. Please be aware that images missing this information may be subject to deletion, and, in certain cases, uploading images after being asked to provide the correct information may lead to a block for the uploader.

RE: Persistent Vandal
They've been blocked, thanks for reporting and undoing their edits. Have you considered asking for Rollback privileges? It makes reverting vandalism much easier. - Nick O'Demus 19:02, October 22, 2010 (UTC)
Title templates
Referencing is a bit easier with the book, film, and game title templates that were recently made. For example:
- {{GOF}} creates Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
- {{OOTPF}} creates Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (film)
- {{HBPVG}} creates Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (video game)
Hope this helps. You've been doing great work. - Nick O'Demus 20:53, October 22, 2010 (UTC)
More templates
These are some useful templates for warning users who are making unhelpful edits.
- {{fanon}} - for users adding fanon to pages or creating fanon articles.
- {{vandal}} - for relatively minor vandalism, or generally unhelpful edits.
- {{vandal2}} - for persistent or major vandalism, such as vulgarity, profanity, or explicit material.
- {{last}} - for repeated vandalism after having already been warned, make sure you inform an Administrator about the user's actions.
These aren't really official guidelines for use, just what I tend to go off of, so just use your best judgement. You can click on the template names to see what they look like. For the {{vandal}} template, you can also link to the page they were editting, such as {{vandal|Harry Potter}} - Nick O'Demus 05:48, October 23, 2010 (UTC)
Hey there
I just want to say that I like your style about cleaning up the pages ;) I haven't an excellent grammar English, but an excellent grammar Dutch :). By the way, your userpage looks cool.--Station7 20:24, October 23, 2010 (UTC)

Could you do me a favor, because my computer doesn't work and remove the categories at this page: Unidentified chessmasters Heads of Hogwarts?--Station7 09:24, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
Yes, all the categories, because it's a redirect.--Station7 09:28, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
No, you did the wrong one. You should doing the redirect, not the page self. I can't remove them, because my internet will being removed them. So at the redirect, you should remove them and at the page you should put them back.--Station7 09:30, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
That's alright ;) --Station7 09:31, October 24, 2010 (UTC)
re: boots
Oh, no, I mean initially I would have done the same thing, after a little while I read through the Hogwarts uniform page, and once I realised that boots weren't anywhere on the page, it occurred to me that if anyone was actually to type in "boots" in the search, they probably expect to find some sort of information on boots. Did you read the message to Seth? Do you have any suggestions/thoughts? I've had a few ideas: 1) a separate page for each type of boots from the video game (like was done with belts). 2)Edit the uniform page to include the video game equipment. 3) Create one "boots" page to encompass all types of boots (like with cloaks). What do you think? --BachLynn(Accio!) 15:04, October 25, 2010 (UTC)
Don't feel bad, I only figured out how to move a page a little while ago, lol! You can see a list of all the items available in the game here (http://www.gamefaqs.com/gbc/565542-harry-potter-and-the-sorceres-stone/faqs/30967). I think this is something that definitely needs to be addressed by an admin, because there are some serious inconsistencies here. Some articles of clothing have their own page, some are redirected to hogwarts uniform, some don't even have a redirect page (like winter cloak), but does get mentioned on both the Hogwarts Uniform page and the "cloak" article. However Blizzard Cloak has it's own page. I haven't heard back from Seth yet, not sure if there are any admin's on right now. --BachLynn(Accio!) 17:02, October 25, 2010 (UTC)

When you tag an article for deletion, please add a notation to the talk page for Candidates for Deletion. --JKoch(Owl Me!) 01:09, October 27, 2010 (UTC)
I looked over the Arabella article, only made a few very very minor edits, it looks good to me. One question, it may not have been you that added it anyway, but in the info box it lists "Mr. Figg (husband)" do you know of anywhere that suggests she was ever married? With her obsession with cats I sort of always assumed she was a spinster of sorts. I mean if there had been a mention of a husband anywhere I would have thought it would have warranted his own article and there isn't an article for him....... Other then that the article looks really good! --BachLynn(Accio!) 19:17, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
- Could still be worth a BTS mention. - Nick O'Demus 19:26, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
- I suppose if she were single she would have been "madame figg" maybe? And because she is "Mrs. Figg" it is assumed that at some point she married. Unless the title "Mrs." is used differently in Britain. Which means Figg isn't her maiden name. Next question, do we assume that her husband died sometime prior to Harry going over to be babysat there? --BachLynn(Accio!) 19:35, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
- Looks alright to me, maybe with the widow part say that it is likely he would have died prior to the 1980s, as the reason he was never mentioned, I mean as nosey as Petunia is, if a husband had lived there I don't see why they would have said "mrs. figg's" house all the time and not simply "the figg's". Although I can't wait till JKR writes the encyclopedia, because I just have this feeling that there must be this whole back story to Mrs. Figg in JKR's head swimming around. --BachLynn(Accio!) 19:49, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
RE: Fenwick Family
Did a minor rewrite. - Nick O'Demus 19:19, October 29, 2010 (UTC)
Hey, if you ever need something researched from the books, or can't find something specific, I have all the books on PDF files, so I can search keywords (makes research waaaaay easier that way). --BachLynn(Accio!) 16:43, October 30, 2010 (UTC)

RE: "Affray" in the Chamber of Secrets
Done - Nick O'Demus 17:00, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
re: info boxes
I'm not sure but I noticed the same thing, especially with countries and Quidditch teams, some have the colors of the national flags, some don't, I'm not sure what the policy is on that. --BachLynn(Accio!) 17:51, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
This is the only mention I could find in the book, "Went down to Transylvania, three hundred and ninety to ten," said Charlie gloomily. "Shocking performance. And Wales lost to Uganda, and Scotland was slaughtered by Luxembourg." --BachLynn(Accio!) 18:45, November 1, 2010 (UTC)
RE: Human Transfiguration
I'd say give it a day, just in case someone does find a mention of "Self-Transfiguration". If nothing by then, go for it. - Nick O'Demus 22:12, November 2, 2010 (UTC)

UN: International Criminal Court statute enters into force
Source:Women's Caucus for Gender Justice
Since the 60th ratification on 11 April 2002, the Rome Statute enters into force on 1 July 2002 at which time the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court over crimes of genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity will take effect.
The International Criminal Court will be the world's first permanent international criminal tribunal established to prosecute individuals for what are considered the most serious crimes of concern to the international community. This historic development is especially significant for women as a broad range of crimes of sexual and gender violence have been included in the Rome Statute in an unprecedented way.

Preheat oven to 425°. Whisk together pomegranate molasses, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, and 1/4 tsp. each salt and pepper.
Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season all over with remaining 1/4 tsp. each salt and pepper.
Heat a dutch oven over medium-high heat and add oil. When hot but not smoking, add chicken and cook, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes total. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate.
Add carrots to dutch oven and cook 5 minutes, turning occasionally. Arrange chicken in a single layer on top of carrots and drizzle with molasses mixture.
Transfer to oven and cook until chicken juices run clear and molasses mixture has reduced a bit, about 15 minutes. Top with parsley to serve.

Driving a car is truly comfortable. However, many people are also crazy about the traffic jam. Meanwhile, a great quantity of automobile exhausts largely decreases the environmental quality. Therefore, insisting on green travel is the common goal of all people on the planet. It makes people fatigued if riding a bike for a long time. The advent of Fosjoas electric scooters offers people a light-hearted travel and solves the issue of green travel.
Fosjoas self-balancing scooters adopt aerospace attitude control theory, fuzzy software algorithm and gyroscope system to obtain the front and back self-balancing. That is to say, riders can finish such operations as moving forward, speeding up, slowing down and braking via leaning forward or backward. When it comes to the left and right self-balancing, it is similar to riding a bike. Riders can turn their bodies to help electric scooters to turn left or turn right. Therefore, riding Fosjoas electric scooters is really an enjoyment.
Fosjoas has different types of electric scooters, which can satisfy different travel needs from people. If people want to ride electric scooters to work every day, Fosjoas electric unicycle or twin-wheeled scooter electric is an ideal choice. The light weight, small figure and compact design of them can help people to realize all of short-distance demands in the daily life. If people want to have a happy sightseeing within city on the weekends, Fosjoas V9 or U3 is a good idea. Two-wheeled design makes the riding stable and comfortable. The 4-inch LED display offers riders various data, including real-time speed, temperature and remaining electricity. U3 is even hailed as SUV scooter, because it is able to challenge different rough road conditions. This year, Fosjoas broke traditions and added the sitting-posture riding mode to K3. All in all, Fosjoas electric scooters offer a light-hearted travel to people wherever they want to go.

Cooking is a vast art. Every cook has different preferences and techniques. These range from simple to complicated. This article will provide you with easy and efficient tips which will help you to become a better chef with a broad knowledge of techniques.
All of the prep work can be done ahead of time. It is important to have all the prep work done before you start cooking. Cooking can get stressful when you're working to deadline. Prepare early to avoid later stress.
When cooking a large meal for a family gathering or dinner party, preparation is key. Gather all the ingredients beforehand. Prepare everything the day prior, including the correct utensils and other cooking tools. Being prepared will settle your anxiety and ensure that you are ready to create a fantastic meal.
There's an easy way to save thin sauces. In a bowl, combine a tablespoon of cornstarch with two tablespoons of water. Continually stir the sauce while adding corn starch slowly. Avoid over-thickening by adding the starch mixture slowly and stirring the sauce often.
Place meat in the freezer for a few minutes to make slicing easier. When you are making stir fry Asian dishes, this technique for thinly sliced meat is ideal. When the meat is partially frozen, cutting becomes cleaner as the meat fibers are less likely to tear or stretch. Then allow the slices to thaw so they'll cook evenly.
To make the cooking process easier and faster, many preparatory steps can be completed ahead of time. Look at your recipe and decide which steps you can do in advance without worry of food spoilage. The day before the cooking happens, there can be a lot of prep work done. Even if you are faced with a challenging recipe, it can make everything go quickly.
When preparing chicken stock, make a large amount. Make sure that you prepare a large amount of stock so that you will have more than enough to store and use for future kitchen adventures. You can use that delicious chicken stock in stews, casseroles, and soups. Once your stock is cooked, let the leftovers reach room temperature, then portion them into freezer bags.
When cooking pumpkins, stand the pumpkin so that it is upright. Next, cut it down the middle. Lay each half on it's own cookie sheet with the cut side facing down. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Sprinkle a little bit of water onto the baking sheets, then bake for about one hour.
Bone-in roasts will cook most rapidly, something to keep in mind when you need to watch the clock. This will allow your meat to cook faster as the bone will warm up the inside quicker. When the cooking is complete, just serve by cutting around the bone.
Over-complicating recipes is often the source of a ruined meal. When you keep your meals simple and tasty, they are often healthier as well, without any salty or fatty additions. You can use the tips that have been provided to improve your cooking skills and make improve every meal that you cook in the future.

NATO General Palomeros Responds to Member Questions
Atlantic Community, 25.11.2013.
The Supreme Allied Commander Transformation, General Jean-Paul Paloméros, answers questions about procurement, multi-national air force projects, cooperation with the EU, Smart Defence and interoperability among Allies with different technological advancement.
NATO's Allied Command Transformation drives, facilitates, and advocates continuous improvement of Alliance capabilities to maintain and enhance NATO's military relevance and effectiveness.
General Paloméros launched this Q&A with an exclusive video statement about the work of the Allied Command Transformation (ACT), the Smart Defence Initiative, the Connected Forces Initiative, the NATO Response Force, and the NATO Defence Planning Process. Then atlantic-community.org members from 12 different countries submitted 51 questions. Now we are excited to present five questions and answers on a broad range of issues.
Kristian Alexander Kennedy, MSc LSE Graduate, Toronto, Canada: Armaments cooperation, standardization and the fostering of a robust technological and industrial base in NATO member countries are vital ingredients if NATO transformation is to be operationally effective. What are the implications, if any, of the Turkish decision to procure an air and missile defence system of Chinese manufacture for NATO's efforts to craft an interoperable missile defence system?
General Paloméros: First and foremost, it remains a sovereign domain of competence for each nation in the Alliance to decide the acquisition of equipment. Second, I would highlight that the Alliance has made tremendous progress in the field of armaments cooperation, standardization and the fostering of a robust technological and industrial base through, for example, the ACCS (Air Command and Control System) programme, or more recently, the JISR initiative launched in Chicago by both France and the USA, with the support of all the other Allies, which will have many implications on the short, medium and long term as far as capacity development and interoperability are concerned.
Georgi Ivanov, The Atlantic Council of Canada: With increasing costs for military procurement in a time of decreasing budgets and economic difficulties, can European cooperation in air force operations go beyond transport aviation and policing in the Baltic to include integrated, multi-profile, air force squadrons between countries?
General Paloméros: European cooperation in air force operations already goes far beyond transport aviation and policing in the Baltic.
Operations in Libya proved that several countries could integrate their assets into a multinational framework and conduct operations with multi-profile and integrated air wings. To achieve such a level of combat effectiveness, standardized procedures and interoperable assets were requested. The combat effectiveness was all the more improved that these means were used to train together.
Beyond real combat operations, certain nations have developed some multinational initiatives that help to conduct standardization and enhance interoperability. These initiatives can be performed within a bi-multilateral agreement, within a NATO or even EU framework. Therefore, it is of high interest to consider all the existing initiatives.
As an illustration, the European Air Group (EAG) is a European initiative which contributes to enhance the air capabilities of nations, which also can be made available to NATO. It was established in 1995 to build on close collaboration between the British and French air forces in the first Gulf War and the subsequent Balkans operations. The European Air Group consists today of seven member nations (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain and the United Kingdom) working together to stimulate change and collectively to enhance the tactical capabilities of the Group's air forces through better cooperation.
The European Air Transport Command (EATC), owned by the three Benelux countries, France and Germany, is another good example of building together a structure which belongs to no organisation but streamlines the existing national capabilities to make their availability more effective and efficient.
Carlos Bausa: The European Union Military Staff (EUMS) is currently building a training capability almost from scratch. There are ongoing EU initiatives such as training doctrine, training system, training portal, etc., very similar to ones taken for Allied Command Transformation (ACT) since 2009. My question is: has any formal collaboration been established between EUMS and ACT in order to promote synergy?
General Paloméros: Within this agreed framework, informal staff talks are conducted with the EUMS by the International Military Staff (IMS) as well as ACT. These talks contribute to enhance mutual knowledge and develop practical synergies, in all domains of common interest, while avoiding duplication of efforts.
Education and training is clearly a topic of common interest and is systematically addressed during the informal staff talks. Main shared efforts consist of identifying the common E&T priorities and in figuring out how to share best practices, lessons learned and ensure a complementary approach to addressing E&T. In this respect the Connected Forces Initiative aimed at continuing to improve the preparation of NATO forces is an excellent tool to support the preparation of that single set of capabilities, of those Allies also members of the EU, which can be made available to both the EU and NATO.
Flo Kling, Bundeswehr University Munich: "Smart Defence" sounds like a nice concept, but how do you make sure that the framework nations for a specialized task stick to their commitment and don't let the rest down?
General Paloméros: The Alliance is comprised of sovereign nations, bound together by their commitment to promote stability and well-being in the North Atlantic area and unite their efforts for collective defense and for the preservation of peace and security. Promoting and supporting Allies efforts to work together to develop and use their military capabilities effectively and efficiently is the main goal of NATO's capability development efforts.
In this perspective, each allied nation remains responsible for its own contribution. The concept of a framework nation and specialized tasks is one idea that is still being discussed. It could potentially offer a means to provide better focus for capability development amongst Allies, enhance interoperability and act as a multiplier for existing national capabilities. It could also offer the potential for additional capacity to be generated for operations.
Any progress in this domain must be balanced against the risk of defense efforts reduction in "supported" nations and the commitment of potential framework nations to make available their capacities they would support.
Daniel Murchison, on behalf of my class, Critical Approaches to Global Security, at Western University Canada: How will NATO address the planning challenges of interoperability and harmonization vis-a-vis the disparities in technological capabilities among member states?
General Paloméros: It is undeniable that there exist disparities of technological capabilities between members of the Alliance. As the nature of an alliance is to maximize each member contribution, interoperability issues are considered essential to ensure of NATO's forces effectiveness. If not tackled properly, several areas such as communications for example are more likely than others to generate significant difficulties during operation.
This is why the NATO Defence Planning Process includes interoperability standards in targets assigned to individual nations as well as to the whole of the Alliance collectively. By addressing these targets, nations and NATO ensure that contributing capabilities, regardless of their size or level of sophistication, can "plug" into the NATO backbone and interoperate seamlessly with other national capabilities deployed.
The last decade of high operational tempo has allowed verification and validation of interoperability levels by often performing "in-theatre" validation. With the draw down from Afghanistan, NATO will rely more heavily on exercises to test and validate interoperability levels among the forces. This is the essence of the NATO Connected Forces Initiative. In addition, NATO has created an interoperability task force whose mission is to identify and address some of the most critical interoperability issues as a result of the lessons learned from past and ongoing operations. This effort has already impacted a large number of existing STANAGs (Standardization Agreements) and the development of new ones in response to emerging interoperability requirements.

(* 1=Not a good move, 2=Okay move, 3=Satisfactory move, 4=Good move, 5=Amazing move)
Today we look at the moves made and their impact on the game. Below is a list of 30 moves made in the game rated on a 1-5 scale by the Patrons of our community.
#1 Tessa using her challenge reward to convince Luke and Michelle to flip on Henry (Champagne Alliance) – 4.61/5
Thoughts: A great move in the game. Sarahs role in turning Jericho against Henry has been underrated.
#2 AK turning the tribe against Adam – 4.45/5
Thoughts: It was the battle of the Superfans; Locky not wanting to compete against another Alpha male in my opinion was the real driving factor behind Adam's departure.
#3 Ziggy shouting "I'm Sorry Anneliese" – 4.29/5
Thoughts: My personal favourite move of the season. This moment was amazing (sorry Anneliese) as a viewer!
#5 Tessa and AK decide to work together with Tessa choosing Samatau 5 over Tara's Misfit Alliance (She's desperate moment) – 4.06/5
#6 Michelle convincing Samatau Ben wanted Locky out – 4.03/5
Thoughts: How Michelle was not voted out that night is still perplexing. We love Ben, but he dug his own grave.
#7 Luke and Sarah agreeing to work together again to vote out Odette – 3.68/5
#8 Henry is a Yoga instructor – 3.65/5
Thoughts: Love the move or hate the move, it got ZenHen cast on the show and for the most part he pulled it off successfully
#9 Luke builds a "Spy Shack" – 3.65/5
Thoughts: Tony should of trademarked this. Does Luke build a bunker on his return?
#10 AK telling the tribe about Tarzan having an idol and giving it to Tessa – 3.65/5
Thoughts: Considering the dynamics of the tribe and everything we've heard post game about the type of player Tarzan was out on the island, the right decision was made.
#11 Ben deciding to mutiny to Samatau – 3.39/5
#13 Peter deciding to mutiny to Samatau – 3.32/5
Thoughts: It appeared Peter was being voted out. So a no brainer to flip back to Samatau.
#14 Michelles decision to flip on Luke, Jeri and Sarah and vote out Sarah – 3.29/5
Thoughts: IT WAS AN EMOTIONAL DECISION!
#17 Tara and Anneliese deciding to work with Lukes alliance over Jacqui and Kent after being swapped to Asaga (post vote out) – 3.13/5
Thoughts: Both Tara and Anneliese made the right decision. Jacqui and Kent were not open at all to an alliance.
#18 Henry throwing the challenge to eliminate Sam – 3.06/5
#20 Jericho sharing his Cookies to create the "Cookie Alliance" – 3.03/5
Thoughts: Cookies!
#21 Henry giving Jericho an Idol clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol he had already found – 2.90/5
Thoughts:I liked this move a lot more than others. It did not ultimately pay off but was worth the risk.
#22 Tara picking lollies over comfort and sharing them with Ziggy – 2.84/5
#23 Samatau picking Ziggy for the Ultimate Reward – 2.81/5
Thoughts: At the time it looked like a safe decision. Really anyone in the Samatau 5 with the exception of AK would of been a good choice to go on this reward.
#24 Jericho voting Tessa off the Jury – 2.77/5
Thoughts: Tessa probably had more sway on the Jury than others. Still sad we never got to see Tessa at final tribal council.
#25 AK playing his Idol on Jarrad – 2.61/5
#26 Tara deciding to take Jericho to allow Jericho to make fire at final 4 instead of voting with Michelle and Peter. – 2.20/5
Thoughts: I dislike the twist more than I dislike the move. Ziggy was realigning herself with power players, but I think she could of done more to prepare her former Samatau alliance.
Thoughts: At this stage of the game there was the potential for Henry and Anneliese to work together and Henry also building a relationship with Ziggy. All the idols in one alliance.
#30 Tarzan picking Firewood – 1.48/5
Thoughts: Really what was Tarzan thinking. Take the Cookies man!
Disclaimer: In a 55 day game there will be moves that were made that are not included on this list. This list was compiled with the help of the Patrons of our podcast. Any big moves missed, please comment below.

Mirabile dictu, Susie and I have found a buyer for our apartment, a young doctor and his wife who are coming to Chapel Hill so that he may take up a residency at UNC Hospitals. Papers have been signed, but there is still the inspection, so once more we shall prepare the apartment to be seen, this time by an eagle-eyed Inspector probing for hidden plumbing flaws or hinky wiring.
Now begins the seemingly endless business of telling everyone who matters [i.e., who sends me money, like the Massachusetts Pension System] what our new address is, informing Spectrum [formerly Time Warner Cable – when did that happen?] that we still want Starz at our new location, and telling the NY TIMES the new delivery location.
As I predicted, we took a bath with the selling price. I figured out that if you ignore inflation and complicated matters like that, my gains and losses on the sale of five principal dwellings over the past half century just about sum to zero dollars. I would strongly suggest that no one ask me for financial advice. On the other hand, I have never aimed to die rich, just solvent so that my children are not left with bills to pay.
The next stage of my life, if things work out as I hope, will feature an increasing involvement with Columbia University through my new membership in the Society of Senior Scholars there. It is now forty-six years since I left Columbia for an extraordinary thirty-seven years at the University of Massachusetts. The young Marxists At UMass from whom I learned so much are now old, retired, and in some cases no longer Marxists. The exciting experimental undergraduate program I started – Social Thought and Political Economy – is flourishing in middle age, and the doctoral program in Afro-American Studies that I helped to create and ran for twelve years has just celebrated its first twenty years, turning out bright, young, productive scholars.
My involvement with Columbia will necessarily be intermittent, since I will continue to live in North Carolina, but there are direct flights, and as I learned long ago, in the Academy even those professors who live across the street from the university, as I did back then, are liable not to spend that much time on campus.
It should be fun.

Yale men's basketball No. 1 in Ivy League preseason poll
There have been many close calls and almosts over the years. The Yale men's basketball team has flirted with its first NCAA tournament berth since 1962. Perhaps this is the year the Bulldogs finally get back to the Big Dance.
Well, if the Ivy League preseason media poll holds true, that will be the case.
Yale has been selected as the top team in the Ivy League preseason poll, announced by the league on Wednesday. The Bulldogs received five of the 17 first-place votes and 117 points. It's the first time Yale has been picked as the preseason favorite.
Columbia is second with 114 points and six first-place votes and Princeton is third with six first-place votes and 108 points. This is the closest margin between the first and second teams since 1998-99.
"I don't know how much that matters," said Yale coach James Jones during Wednesday's media teleconference. "I guess it's nice to hear from people that we have a chance to be successful, although the vote was very close. Certainly the league is wide open. I don't know that we're going to be a target, but I certainly feel good about where our team is and it's nice that other people recognize it."
Yale (22-10, 11-3) brings back a strong core of returners, highlighted by senior forward Justin Sears. The 6-foot-8, 205-pound Sears averaged 14.3 points on 51 percent shooting, 7.5 rebounds and blocked 73 shots. He earned Ivy League Player of the Year honors and became the first Yale player since Chris Dudley to earn first-team All-Ivy honors three times.
Also back is captain Jack Montague, the conference's top 3-point shooter from a year ago. Sophomore guard Makai Mason is poised for a breakout year and will see an expanded role with talented guard Javier Duren now graduated. Bridgeport native Brandon Sherrod rejoins the Bulldogs after traveling the world last year with the Whiffenpoofs, the world's oldest collegiate a cappella singing group. Sherrod will be a big addition in the post for Yale.
"Brandon has been really impressive," Jones said. "I can't tell you how nice it is to have him back and how much we missed him last year. He's come back in great shape and ready to go."
The Bulldogs clinched a share of the Ivy title last season, but lost to Harvard in the closing seconds of a one-game playoff for the league's berth into the NCAA tournament. Yale fell to Dartmouth on a last-second shot in the game prior, setting up the playoff against Harvard.
"The way things went down at the end for us, that did not sit well and still doesn't," Jones said. "Disappointment is something that pushes you forward. I look at it that way. It's a new year now."
Down year for Harvard?
Harvard has been Ivy champion or co-champion each of the past five seasons.
That streak may be in jeopardy this year. The Crimson were picked to finish fourth in the poll.
Harvard's three-year starting point guard and all-league pick Siyani Chambers tore his ACL over the summer and will miss the season. Chambers averaged 9.9 points and 4.3 assists last year. This is Harvard's most inexperienced roster in seven years.
"Certainly we had an enormous setback going into the season with the loss of Siyani Chambers," Harvard coach Tommy Amaker said. "That's a huge setback for our team."
Blue Madness
Yale will host its Blue Madness event for both its men's and women's teams on Oct. 29 at 7:30 p.m. at Lee Amphitheater.
Admission and parking is free and the event will feature music, a dunk contest, a three-point contest and prizes and giveaways.

Trend is ever changing – that goes without saying. In brief: frivolous is out, environmental developments are in. Trend tells us so much about a person, the way in which they costume, the way in which they put their outfits together indicates the sort of particular person they are every day. Pinks and other pastel colors are featured heavily in the coming season too.\n\nTrend is not only carrying clothing that protects us from the elements. When you don't wish to have a look at it, this resembles that you are matching your steps with the most recent trend developments. These are useful indicators for finding out what is being purchased and the thrill on upcoming kinds.\n\nThe joy we feel when trying good and carrying quality and fashionable clothes is big. A number of the latest developments in the girls's trend; leggings are ones in pattern now and worn with matching tops look good on peoples of all sizes. This supplies the patron with an inexpensive different to purchasing authentic vintage clothing and means they'll have copies of rare or onerous to search out clothes.\n\nThis pattern, which is more apparent in international locations corresponding to Australia and United Kingdom, is prone to be integrated in kid's clothing-a far cry from the current pattern of flesh exhibiting for girls's trend. Baby doll attire: Cute for 12 12 months olds. Free pants tied at the waist, and boxy tees worn with a housecoat over them could look like what most of us wear after we are residence sick, not high trend.\n\nHold the look girly with bangles or an announcement necklace. Wear this fashion with a tucked in blouse, a skinny belt and wedge heels for a straightforward and trendy work look. Choosing fashions and accessories created from recycled materials is an effective way to do it. The amount of knickknack out in the marketplace that is created from vintage baubles and recycled and antique pieces is wonderful, and exquisite.\n\nThe popularity of retro vintage clothing has resulted in faux vintage clothing being produced and it has had a big effect on the fashion world as most people want the retro have a look at fashionable inexpensive prices but it could possibly usually be onerous to search out real vintage clothes.\n\nIf the ethnic wear that your favorite TV celebs don are what you wish to have, you should buy exactly the same outfits like sarees , salwar suits , lehenga cholis, jhukmaks, kurtis high heels and all other stylish accessories and garments online on Flipkart.

"The fireworks begin today. Each diploma is a lighted match. Each one of you is a fuse." –Edward Koch
Introducing: The AUL Class of 2018!
Academy of Urban Learning is honored to have awarded thirty students their high school diploma, the largest graduating class ever for this tiny school. Friends and family gathered in the North High School Auditorium on Thursday, May 31st, 2018 to watch as their loved one became a high school graduate.
On the evening before graduation, AUL graduates and staff shared a family-style dinner together at Maggiano's Little Italy. Over fettuccine, chicken parmigiana and cheesecake, students and staff shared memories and stories, and honored dreams for the future.
AUL has two very special traditions for graduating seniors. First, the school community cheering graduates out of the building on their last day of school. Seniors are treated to this memorable experience at the end of their last trimester (November, February, and May), and the whole school gets to celebrate their accomplishments. The second special tradition is the Graduation Rose Ceremony, where each graduate is given two roses with which to honor and thank two important people who have helped them on their journey. Rose recipients include friends, close family, extended family, and teachers. It is a supreme honor to receive a rose from an AUL graduate! It is a reminder that while your journey is your own, others play uniquely important parts in it, and you in theirs.
Extra congratulations to AUL's co-Valedictorians, Amairany Perez and Gerado Gonzalez. And thank you to our keynote speaker and Board of Directors member, Lori Powell.
Graduates are moving on to full-time employment, Community College of Denver, Emily Griffith Technical College, and Denver Public Schools' 18 to 21 Program.
Join us in congratulating this new era of promising adults!

Reports from many inner city hospitals show they are now having to treat hundreds of people turning up at A&E suffering from food poisoning. The reason is thought to be directly linked to soaring food prices in the high streets with many starving people now being forced to turn to wild growing weeds and roadkill meats in a desparate search for food.
Dismissing demands for food vouchers to now be given to Britain's poor pensioners and the unemployed, the Prime Minister said today it was only fair and right for those who can't afford to buy luxury foods like cabbages or chicken wings from supermarkets to have to make do with alternative food sources such as wild growing dandylions, clover, and roadkill pheasant easily available for them to eat from along our many country lanes.
Pointing out that the vast majority of the food poisoning victims are those who have been brought up in towns and cities Mr Cameron insists it isn't the governments responsibilty to teach people the difference between edible and non-edible wild plants but the responsibility of each person to do that through trial and error. Speaking from the steps outside Number 10 this morning he made it absoluely clear that cabbage and chicken food vouchers would not be issued.
"When I was a child living in our old Rectory at Newbury in Berkshire I would often find a dead pheasant along the country lanes when out doing my paper round early in the morning," he reminisced. "I'd scoop it up into my bag together with some dandylions and clover from the surrounding pastures and mummy would prepare the most delicious free meal for all the family. In fact one of my favourite meals has always been a nice pheasant pasty."
Following the Prime Minister's comments, a Miss Dandy Lyon, a nutritionist at a clinic in the East London borough of Hackney contacted us by email to accuse the prime Minister of being out of touch with reality saying the fact of the matter is that there are many starving people who are now turning to things like privet bushes to eat in the mistaken belief that anything green growing is the same as a healthy vegetable.
"There isn't the time for people to educate themselves on what wild plants are safe to eat and what ones aren't" she writes, "and telling them to learn that through trial and error isn't only irresponsibly dangerous, it's also causing our hospitals to be inundated every day with large numbers of very sick people rolling on the floor holding their stomachs in absolute agony.
'Admittedly in recent years many owners of the houses in this area of London have done away with their front garden privet hedges replacing them with concrete driveways, but there are still lots of houses with the privet, and at this time of year those privet hedges grow so very quickly. This has resulted in many of the local starving people around here going out in the middle of the night with shears or with scissors from their kitchen drawers cutting away privet from resident's front garden hedges then taking the cuttings back to their flats in carrier bags to feed their families. The privet bush is not a vegetable," claims Dr Dandy Lyon, "and it isn't safe to eat not even when well boiled."
Nevertheless she does admit Mr Cameron is correct regarding dandylions and clover.
"Both are safe to eat and also full of vitamins," she says. "In fact although eating many of Britain's wild growing flowers, weeds, berries, bushes and so on will cause terrible stomach pains, and certainly eating some of them will bring about instantaneous death, there are of course many delicious wild growing weeds to be found along the grass verges of our dual carriageways for starving people to collect and cook for their meals.
'Mr Cameron is also correct when saying roadkill meats to go with the edible wild growing weeds and flowers can often be found along our roads, but in this area of London at least I can assure him the chances of anyone finding a roadkill pheasant is next to nil. The starving people around here are scooping up the dead remains of pigeons to eat, not pheasants. Certainly a pigeon contains just as many nutrients and vitamins as a scrawny factory farm produced chicken, and a nice roast pigeon does go very nice with chips, but we do not have country lanes in Hackney Mr Cameron, and the roads around here are very busy with joyriders whizzing around in their stolen cars, thunderous rumbling juggernauts, and police officers with their take away curries blue lighting them back to their colleagues at Hackney police station before they get cold. Anyone deciding to scoop up the roadkill remains of a dead pigeon from a Hackney road risks becoming another roadkill victim as well!"

What if you there was one thing you could do right now to change your life? You could improve your confidence, and be more excited about your career and relationships. Here's how: listen to a better station.
A dear friend shared with me something he once learned. We all have tapes playing in our mind. The difference between your tape and mine, or between your tape and that of your partner, boss, or parent, is what is playing on it.
In relationships, women often have a tape that plays the following questions "does he love me?" "am I worthy of love?" "Why doesn't he care about me?" "I feel unattractive/ guilty/ judged by others."
While men often have a tape that repeats the nagging questions "Am I successful enough?" or "Am I significant enough?"
The tricky thing is we may not even be conscious of this tape, these deep questions inside of us that and vie for attention and cause us stress and self-doubt. The conundrum is how do you turn these tapes into thoughts that positively serve you.
The first step is to recognize that it is going on in our minds. To understand that the culture we live in, the culture of plenty can bring out inner beliefs of famine. How many times in the last week have you heard someone say a variation of the phrase "not enough" or "never enough"? Researcher Brene Brown writes how people fill in blanks with their own tapes about how they are…
"Never good enough"
"Never perfect enough"
"Never thin enough"
"Never certain enough"
"Never loved enough"
"Never significant enough"
"Never extraordinary enough"
And if it is not about your personal self, it can be about your life: "I never have enough….
good days,
good fortune,
Do any of these sound familiar? Where did it come from that we live our lives in an abundant society, yet in our daily lives we experience numerous things that are "never enough"? Lynne Twist writes in The Soul of Money, that before we even sit up in bed, before our feet touch the floor, we're already behind, already late, already losing, already lacking something… This is the internal condition of scarcity, this mind set of scarcity lives at the very heart of our jealousies, our greed, our prejudice, and our arguments with life…"
So, what can I do about this?
One approach to recognize what you do you have, do an exercise where you write down 3-5 areas where you are good enough, where you do have an abundance. It could be in any area: Do you have an abundance of square feet in your house? Do you have an abundance of food options in your supermarket or town? Is your vision or hearing (good) enough? Was there recently a time where you had enough sleep or attention? Was there a time recently when you had enough help and something turned out well for you? Did you have enough money for any recent purchases (big or small)? When you get momentum finding where you have enough in 3-5 areas of your life, you can strengthen your abundance-finding muscles to begin seeing and experiencing life from a place of plenty rather than a place of scarcity.
Whether you have been conscious about these "inner tapes" before, or just begun to realize what is playing, take a moment to ask yourself the following questions:
a) What do you feel you "never have enough" of?
b) Is there an area of your life in which you feel you are not enough?"
c) Are these beliefs really, completely, 100% true, and something you are ready to change?"

VAN WYK, Susandra J. Old Babylonian family division agreement from a deceased estate - analysis of its practical and theoretical mechanisms. Fundamina (Pretoria) [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.1, pp.146-171. ISSN 2411-7870.
The family division agreement in a deceased estate is part of a vast old Babylonian legal corpus. It prima facie functions as a simple, straightforward agreement between family members. However, the different aspects of the agreement are not fully understood by today's scholars. This article offers some reflection on this specific agreement: the family division agreement in a deceased estate as a complex legal notion. In the article special attention is paid to what this agreement entails by explaining its practical and theoretical mechanisms. Reasons are given for categorising this agreement as a family division agreement deriving from a deceased estate in contrast with other types of division agreements from different estates. For practical reasons the different evolutionary stages in an estate are outlined. In relation to the theoretical mechanisms of the agreement, the relevance and meaning of recordings on objects in ancient Mesopotamia are discussed, with special reference to old Babylonian division agreements. In essence this agreement, as used in ancient Babylonian life, serves as a successful, timeless, estate administration mechanism and tool, to obviate any undesirable consequences of co-ownership of bequeathed property in the old Babylonian city-states.

Would like some of those as well.
I like the Manticore Ascendant ones, and seeing the other House Companion books, like House of Lies and House of Shadows.
To be honest, I would like to see more about Silesia (How it went from a functional government-ish to pirate haven; has the appeal of watching a train crash but I just want to know), about Haven and it's founding setup making the Haven Quadrant, about how the Solly League got made and expanded out.
A big one would be the discussions and development leading to the founding of the Star Kingdom. That's got to interesting to watch.
As for finding stuff:
We know that the Malign had it headquarters on Mesa, we know of companies that had offices on Mesa, like Manpower, Technodyne, etc. We know that the Malign made a navy.
Navies require logistics to function and carry out missions. Unless Malign setup a long term colony in their shipyard place, they will need to ship in the work force, and arrange for the delivery of gear for making parts, etc. So there is a paper trail of shipments, unless everything was disposed of after, but the navy wouldn't be producing any profits, so Malign still has to pay out for building all of the infrastructure, which leave some kind of trail, in people as well as files. Plus, where exactly would they get the foodstuffs, without it being shipped in?
Hades needed shipments to survive, but it was a prison planet. Dark Fall tells us about Bolthole, and making that work required resources, but was proven to rather unprofitable so far. For the Haven leadership.
So Anton and Victor could try looking into shippments and papers, because somebody had to come up with the Streak drive, and there were supposed to be research teams.
The Malign couldn't have gotten rid of everything.

Do Antivirus Programs Really Protect Your Computer?
No. Antivirus programs detect viruses, and sometimes are capable of removing them from your system; they may also protect against certain "viral behavior" which viruses of certain strains consistently do. However, they cannot ultimately protect you from viruses, no more than you can protect your children from everything that they may come in contact with. However, just like a good baby-sitter, you can extend your protection by using an antivirus program.
Even if you have [insert your favorite antivirus product here] installed and you update the virus definitions every ten seconds (or more often, for that matter) you may not be protected!
A Brief History Lesson
In this case especially, history is an excellent teacher. In October of '98 (IIRC) Norton AntiVirus distributed a live virus within their virus scanner definitions through "live-update". The virus had some interesting affects - including semi-disabling floppy drives - any disks inserted were infected with the virus but the floppy could not be "read" by that computer. It was identified and corrected within a matter of hours, however - because my then-employer updated the systems automatically whenever a new update was available - we were unable to remove the virus from our systems without a direct internet connection. :(
An antivirus program is great for what it is designed for: detecting specific strains of computer viruses that exist at some point in time as a file.

ATLANTA, Ga. -- Strong pitching from the Covenant softball team was not enough on Saturday as perennial national power Emory squeezed past the Lady Scots in both games of the doubleheader. Emory took game one 5-1 before completing the sweep with a 2-0 victory in game two.
Covenant drops to 6-10 on the year, while Emory goes to 6-2.
In game one, Sarah Huskey made the start and relievers Joni Johnson and Tyler Epes combined to allow one earned run on seven hits. Huskey (2-1) went the first 4.2 innings and scattered five hits with one strikeout, but picked up the loss.
Covenant grabbed a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning when Jada Allmon singled home pinch-runner Carsyn Stone with two away. Emory responded with a run in its half of the fourth, but then busted the game open with four runs in the fifth. In the fifth, Emory got the first two batters to reach on consecutive fielding errors and the host Eagles were able to capitalize and score four times to take a 5-1 lead.
The Lady Scots would not be able to mount a comeback attempt as Emory used three pitchers to hold Covenant to a single hit. Jacqueline Spizizen (4-1) got the win as she threw three innings and struck out six.
In game two, Stone (2-5) went six innings in the circle for Covenant and surrendered just two runs on seven hits with three strikeouts. Emory scored both runs in the fourth inning when Natalie Arreguin's sacrifice bunt enabled a pair of runs to come across.
Covenant had four hits in the game, led by Carlin Labuzan's two. Casey Grover and Shelby Ralston had one apiece.
Emory's Audrey Walker (1-0) went 5.2 innings and received the game two victory, while Spizizen notched the save after tossing 1.1 hitless innings.
Covenant will be off until Saturday, March 3 when the Lady Scots open up USA South play against Wesleyan at home. Game one of the doubleheader is set for 1 p.m.

Don't Forget About José Aldo: A Case for the True Featherweight Champion
Fightland Blog
Right now, as we gear up for a fantastic match-up between Mendes and McGregor, José Aldo is in Brazil being sacrificed at the altar to make way for an era that may never come. Many of the new fans brought to the sport by a year of hype and PR could be forgiven for believing that Aldo is nothing more than a scared has-been who should just fade away and make room for the new guard.
And yet Aldo is the undisputed champion. He fought a war last October to retain his title. He spent weeks on the road being heckled and insulted and responded gamely in the Embedded series that chronicled it all. Near the end of the tour, the champ had his belt snatched away at the table. The crowd roared, his opponent roared, his boss ... smiled. Aldo was told the payout and fame were worth it. This was the limelight he deserved, so went the narrative, and he should thank the UFC and McGregor for the opportunity to make millions and finally get recognition for his accomplishments. The gong show was just part of "making it."
Then came the injury.
Since then Aldo has been accused—on Sportscenter, by Dana White—of having a history of ducking fights. The UFC released a statement concerning the injury, declaring it a bruise and not a break. Aldo was cleared to fight, Dana said on OTR, and other fighters "many fighters" have fought with similar injuries. dot dot dot.
The original "clearance" came from UFC medical consultant Dr. Jeff Davidson who, according to ESPN, was still waiting to get his hands on Aldo's medical documents. Once those scans came in, it was shown to be a clear fracture, as confirmed by authorities such as Dr. David Chao, who tweeted "I was asked to review José Aldo rib films. Yes, he has definite fracture. Here are actual images. White line is break"
I was asked to review Jose Aldo rib films. Yes, he has definite fracture. Here are actual images. White line is break pic.twitter.com/gBYemmqm5V
— David J. Chao, MD (@ProFootballDoc) July 2, 2015
Yet the "Aldo is ducking, and actually this is something he's done before" spin on the situation continued. Eventually his camp released a 3D scan of his ribcage to prove that he had indeed fractured his rib. Dana White and Conor McGregor still speak of the injury as if it were a bruise, and not a break. McGregor using the injury as fuel for his personal PR campaign is understandable. Dana White not stepping up and defending the champ is less so.
Unless of course you start counting all of the money everyone has lost because Aldo couldn't stay healthy for the fight. That big loss, which will most likely be recouped over the next few events as the McGregor-Mendes-Aldo-Edgar quartet resolves itself, is not enough to justify UFC management downplaying the injury and allowing the "ducking" narrative to continue unchecked.
Another thing to consider is the very existence of an interim belt to begin with. There really is no reason to grant Mendes or McGregor a title of any kind. José Aldo fought eight months ago. He has defended his belt as often as any champion in the UFC since 2011, with only Jon Jones fighting more battles (go check it out, even with the five pullouts). There is only one reason to do so: feed the hype-train created over the last 14 months by acquiescing to McGregor's demands.
Turns out it was Conor McGregor who demanded Mendes fight be for an interim title. Wouldn't do it otherwise #UFC189 pic.twitter.com/gh0mQihQx1
— Jonathan Snowden (@JESnowden) July 1, 2015
Money is at the heart of this decision and perhaps also a strong belief in McGregor's ability to do exactly what he claims he can do. There's merit in that gamble. And honestly the UFC was put in a very difficult position by Aldo's training methods: what else were they to do? But the issue isn't just the interim belt—or the possibility that a unification bout would be fought in Dublin—it's the way Aldo has been pushed aside as if he really were a coward, as if he had already been defeated. As if everything the PR campaign has been telling us had actually come true.
It hasn't. Not yet anyway.
This isn't the first time a big name fighter has been thrown under the bus for underperforming, speaking out of line, or otherwise crossing management. GSP comes to mind. Although one could step back and perhaps see a plausible reason for a promotion turning its back on a champion—uncontrollable drug use perhaps—it still leaves a bitter taste in your mouth to see a dominant champion, who also comes off as a gentleman, being ditched for a brash personality who has made his case as much with insults as with his sublime striking.
The upside is we do get to have most of our questions answered in a few short days. A Mendes victory means a third match-up with Aldo, but it also creates a classic story arc for McGregor, who is forced to re-group and return (perhaps against Edgar as a co-main?) to claim with he believes is rightfully his. A McGregor victory silences a million haters all at once and primes us for a match-up that might break the MMA Internet before it even happens. Until then, I would urge everybody not to forget about José, and perhaps keep his words in our minds until he is whole again, and ready to unify the title:

City Council Designates Area as 'Thai Town'
The Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously Wednesday to designate an area east of Hollywood as "Thai Town," the first official Thai town in the nation.
The designation was proposed by Councilwoman Jackie Goldberg, who said the move would bring neighborhood pride, economic development and promotion of tourism to the area.
"It's important to designate some place that draws attention to the fact that there are Thai Americans in the region," said Goldberg, adding that the people in the area are not only proud of their Thai heritage, but also of the fact they are Americans.
The new Thai Town will include the area between Normandie and Western Avenues along Hollywood Boulevard, where Thai businesses abound. The neighborhood is also home to many of the 80,000 Thai estimated to be living in Southern California, said Chanchanit Martorell, director of the Thai Community Development Center.
"It's really making people conscious of our existence in the city of Los Angeles," Martorell said of the designation.

Shell CEO says well-considered policies are key to progress
China is playing an increasingly important role in the global energy landscape and the country's impressive progress toward cleaner energy is hard to miss, said Ben van Beurden, CEO of Royal Dutch Shell Plc.
"The Chinese government's move toward establishing a national carbon-pricing mechanism is yet another sign the country is making progress toward a new era of cleaner energy," he said.
"With well-considered policies that take on lessons learned by others, China can find a successful route."
He made the speech during the launch of a report on China's energy revolution in the context of the global energy transition on March 23, which was jointly conducted by Shell and the Development Research Centre of the State Council.
According to the report, China produces 40 percent of all the wind turbines in the world, while making three-quarters of the world's solar panels. Nearly half of the electric vehicles on the planet today are owned by Chinese drivers.
The share of coal in primary energy consumption has fallen for four years running and is on track to drop from 64 percent in 2015 to less than 58 percent by 2020, it said.
The role of renewables in the system is also gaining ground fast, with the amount of wind energy on track to double between 2015 and 2020 and the amount of solar to more than quadruple in the same time period, it said.
The report also looks at ways to deepen the reform of the oil and gas landscape to encourage investment and development, including reforms to the mining rights system, the natural gas pipeline network, pricing and industry regulation.
It recommends establishing new regulatory authorities and suggests an enhanced system of energy laws to back this up and make the most of the plans for a national carbon market.
According to Beurden, the successful establishment of a unified and dynamic carbon market requires many of the changes suggested elsewhere for the country's energy system.
"Without market-based electricity pricing, for example, the power sector cannot be properly incentivized to make low-carbon investment decisions and market forces cannot do their work of keeping prices as low as possible," he said.
