The major global powers are still trying negotiations and sanctions to induce Iran to abandon its efforts to develop nuclear weapons. But Iran is playing for time and hoping to reach a zone of immunity.
By 2013, an Israel that – rightly or wrongly – perceives Iran's nuclear program to be an existential threat, and/or the US, which has rejected containment of a nuclear Iran, may decide to strike, leading to a war and a massive spike in oil prices. - in Project Syndicate

art deco inspired jewellery and even wavy hair.
|It was the beginnings of women's liberation. Strong, daring women.

Im in Ibiza, to get fit. I know, I can scarcely believe it myself. When I come to Ibiza its usually the opposite of health that I experience but I do know the island has a lot of other things to offer as well as dance music and danger. Step forward, 38 Degrees North, the masters of my universe, and deliverers of my pain (Etc), for three days in Paradise
THE RETREAT LOWDOWN: A luxury boot camp aimed at resetting your coordinates. The Optimal Fitness programme combines personal fitness activities, yoga and outdoor pursuits with a body and fitness assessment, a nutritionist-devised healthy eating plan, all in the eco-plush surroundings of the 5-star Aguas de Ibiza Hotel and Spa in Santa Eulalia, in the north of the island. Group retreats run most weeks but you can also book in for an individual/bespoke programme.
THE HOTEL: Theres something James Bond-ish about the hotel well, if 007 cared about the environment thanks to the circular façade and domed lobby, not to mention the jetset-style pool area and Scuba Chill-out Bar (groovy rooftop drinking spot with bijou pool and loungers). It feels very Sixties-cool, with a loungey sort of vibe. The décor is very natural - nodding to Phoenician architecture (crafting from local stone to be sensitive to environment) the textured design utilises local sand stone, pebbles and cooling marble in a chic but non-show-off-y way. My Feng-Shui-ed suite again boasts natural materials cork, light stone and oak furniture and, the most nifty part, partition blinds in the bathroom that give way to ocean view so you can soak up the ocean while you, erm, soak. Theres also low-slung leather couches, and all mod cons (Bang & Olufson kit, free Wifi).
So, hotel sorted. Its gorgeous. I feel immediately relaxed - theres something about the heavenly scent in reception, the coolness of the marble floor and that gobsmacking view of the sea that gets me immediately in the zone. Not necessarily an exercise zone but a zone nonetheless. Kelly Morgan and James Davis are the husband-and-wife team that head up the retreats. James is a super-fit personal trainer and Kelly loves outdoor pursuits and running. They are both brilliant fun and dead reassuring to somebody whose fitness modus operandi is haphazard at best.
Im here for a three-day bespoke taster package but usually, group exercise retreats are for six nights. They also offer detox, yoga and even sleep programmes. Im met at the airport and then head to hotel where we kick things off with a detox juice (delicious) and hour-long beach circuits with Faye Maloney, former UK Kickboxing Champion (no less) and absolutely lovely woman from Newcastle. I find that Im really good at boxing, whod have thought it? Apparently I have a strong punch (am thrilled at this), as well as good body awareness and movement flow.
I always thought circuits were a drag but put it on a beach, with some one-on-one tuition and a boxing glove and its very different. The rest of the first day involves a fitness consultation (including body fat analysis), Powerplate, a dance class, Lomi Lomi body massage, and a chilled dinner at Alabastro, the chic Mediterranean-fusion restaurant in the hotel (normally, a nutritionist-devised revitalising menu is planned out for the week. Think Rainbow salads with local cheeses, healthy tuna steaks, protein juices, raw chocolate moose, herbal waters).
The whole point is that Im introduced to a variety of activities to rediscover my fitness mojo and hopefully kickstart a new regime back home. Im on my own but usually there would be a small group of no more than ten. Day two Im kickboxing at sunrise with Faye again (and aching like mad, I wont lie), hiking to Es Vedra, this gorgeous rock formation said to be third most magnetic place on earth, subject to lymphatic massage where my legs are basically pummeled into submission by a machine, and then dinner out with Kelly and James at laidback local restaurant, Babylon Beach. This part feels very much in line with my usual Ibiza experiences delicious drinks and DJs. And yes, I am allowed a glass of wine. By day three Im feeling genuinely invigorated and ready to tackle the gorgeous morning coastal run with Kelly, where I pick up some excellent posture tips I need to run more upright and keep my elbows close to my body, and a 25k bike ride through pine scented rural roads, ending with a chic lunch at fashionable hotspot Atzaró Beach Restaurant (Jade Jagger hosts parties here) on the shores of beautiful Cala Nova. We also stop off to look at some cool artisan leather bags at a favourite local boutique of Kellys called World Family (worldfamilyibiza.com).
THE VERDICT: Im a convert! Love the fact that there is so much variety and the programme is bespoke. Its also a brilliant and alternative - way to experience the island. Rustic cycling, coastal running and breathtaking hiking (thats the view and me) were definitive highlights. Its also not army-like at all, which I would have hated. I need a bit of love with my lunges. Kelly and James are super cool too, which means you dont miss out on the new chic place to eat, a spot of shopping and a cheeky cocktail (if you want one that is). What did I learn fitness wise? I need to get into pain more. I realised I quit far too readily and never push myself with exercise but its actually good to do it. Fitness and weight loss is the prime motivation for these retreats (and there are measurable results from the before and after tests done on the six-day retreats) but Kelly and James have noticed people also take mental time out to revitalise their lives and, as they put it, re-set their coordinates. I definitely felt fitter, more toned and energized after three days and after six days people tend to lose on average 2-3kg per week and 1-2kg of fat.

For those of us who love living in the Tampa Bay area, boating and fishing rank high among favorite outdoor activities for many people. Serious anglers are willing to spend a great deal of time and money in pursuit of a wide variety of fish species. The expense often includes boats that are built for specific types of fishing. These boats range from flats boats that are designed to operate in very shallow water to large multi-engine boats designed to operate offshore in hundreds of feet of water.
7th Annual "Fashions with Flair"
The charity fundraiser, held at the Belleair Country Club, packed the house with nearly 350 attendees from the greater Clearwater region.
Since 1994, Clearwater Community Volunteers have raised money, food and toys for family and children's charities such as the Boys & Girls Club, Everybody's Tabernacle's Homeless Emergency Project, C.L. Kennedy Community Center in Tampa, the Red Cross, Victims of Katrina and Winter Wonderland.
CCV holds various fundraising activities throughout the year. However, Fashions with Flair" is the largest attended and, in my opinion, "the most elegant". Each year the event includes a silent auction, great food, entertainment and the fashion show of beautiful community leaders participating as models.

The size of the unit should be just large enough to cool the square footage but not be larger than needed. Therefore, the first thing to consider when choosing the best AC unit is the size of the house.
There is not a one-size fits all guide to what size unit a home will need. An experienced HVAC technician evaluates the home and the area to help an individual make the best choice. In the southern-most portion of the U.S., a 2.5 ton unit will cool 1,200 to 1,500 square feet. The same unit will cool a 1,400 to 1,650 square foot home in the northern-most states.
The size of an AC unit is measured by tonnage, and residential air conditioners can range from 1 to 5 tons. The efficiency of a unit is measured by the seasonal energy efficiency ratio. This is how much cooling a system will provide per dollar spent on utilities. The energy efficiency ratio is the ratio of the output to electrical power. A more efficient unit will have a higher SEER and EER rating than a lower one. Combined together, the two numbers represent the type of performance expected for typical weather in an area for any given year.
A higher rated AC unit will cost more money up front, but the unit will pay for itself over time in energy savings. An individual can also receive a tax credit for purchasing an energy-efficient HVAC unit.

EU says US needed for Mideast peace but cannot do it alone
By AFP - Jan 31,2018 - Last updated at Jan 31,2018
BRUSSELS — EU diplomatic chief Federica Mogherini urged US reengagement in the Middle East peace process Wednesday after President Donald Trump's controversial recognition of occupied Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
"This is a difficult moment," she said after an extraordinary meeting of international donors in Brussels to discuss the Trump administration's decision to cut aid to the Palestinians.
"If I can put it in a headline, nothing without the United States, nothing with the United states alone," she told a press conference with the visiting foreign minister of Norway, a key donor.
The Palestinians have said the United States can no longer mediate in the Middle East conflict following Trump's decision on Jerusalem, which they also consider to be their capital.
The row threatens to derail the Trump administration's peace plan, which had been set to be presented to both sides later this year.
The EU is the biggest donor to the Palestinians and has spoken out against Trump's Jerusalem decision.
"For the United States' plan, we'll wait and see. We don't have for the moment details or even a time framework," said Mogherini.
"For us what counts is first and foremost that everybody recognises the United States is essential for any process to realistically have a chance to succeed. But also for our American friends to understand that alone it will be more difficult to achieve anything."
Trump last week accused the Palestinians of disrespecting the US and threatened to withhold hundreds of millions of dollars in aid until they returned to the negotiating table.
Provoking Palestinian outrage, he reaffirmed his Jerusalem decision and said the disputed city had been taken "off the table", despite having previously said his recognition did not preclude later negotiations on its borders.

Request for Medical Records Not Necessarily Sufficient To Put Insured on Notice of Potential Claim, Even Where Request Was Listed on Potential Claim Log Submitted To Insurer
The United States District Court for the District of Arizona, applying Arizona law, has held that a request for medical records is not necessarily sufficient to put an insured on notice of a potential claim, even where the insured listed the request on a potential claim log submitted to its insurer. Evanston Ins. Co. v. Hearthstone of Sun City, LLC, 2010 WL 396366 (D. Ariz. Jan. 29, 2010).
The insurer issued a professional liability insurance policy to a health care provider for the policy period January 30, 2007 to January 30, 2008. The policy provided specified coverage for claims first made against an insured during the policy period. The policy contained a prior acts exclusion, which precluded coverage for "[a]ny liability arising out of acts, errors or omissions of which an Insured had knowledge prior to the inception date of the policy period if, as of such date, an Insured could reasonably foresee a claim might result."
One day before the inception of the policy, the insured submitted to the insurer a "Possible Claim Reporting Log," in which it provided a list of what it referred to as 112 "claims or possible claims." The log included a notation indicating that a patient had an "unavoidable wound progression" and that the patient's son had requested a form to obtain his father's medical records. The patient subsequently died and, on November 9, 2007, the patient's family filed a lawsuit against the insured. The insured sought coverage under the policy for the claim, and the carrier denied coverage pursuant to the policy's prior acts exclusion.
In the coverage litigation that followed, the insurer argued that, based on the notation regarding the request for medical records that was included on the "Possible Claim Reporting Log," which the insured submitted prior to the policy's inception, the insured was aware of the underlying claim at that time or, at the very least, could reasonably have foreseen that a claim might result. The insurer asserted that, accordingly, the policy's prior acts exclusion precluded coverage for the claim. The insured countered that the request for medical records was included on the log as part of the insured's compliance with state and federal regulations, which require it to track such requests, and not for insurance purposes. The insured further asserted that the request for medical records alone was insufficient to put it on notice that the patient or his son were dissatisfied with the medical care that the insured had provided. The insured contended that it therefore did not have a reasonable basis to believe, at the time the policy incepted, that the patient or his son might assert a claim against it.
Noting that the matter was a "close call," the court ultimately concluded that, based on the record, "reasonable minds could differ" as to whether the insured could have foreseen that a claim might result based on the request for medical records. Accordingly, the court denied the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment on the issue of coverage. Nevertheless, the court granted the insurer's motion for summary judgment on the insured's bad faith claim, concluding that the insured could not show that the insurer "lacked any reasonable basis for denying benefits under the policy."

text: Of course, sock monkey was the theme of Truman's first birthday! We were lucky enough to have Chris's family in town to help us celebrate which is a real treat considering they traveled from NY to KY for the occasion. I really enjoyed making his birthday cake. My Grandma helped me to figure out the design of the cake using her very own cake pans. We decided it would be the easiest, and cutest to just do the hat for his smash cake! I think they turned out great!! Everyone loved them. I yellow cake for the big one, and funfetti for his cake :) We kept it simple and didn't have food, just cake and homemade ice cream. We had vanilla and banana, hard to choose between them because they are both SO good!! We really enjoyed the day and focused on celebrating one year of baby Truman! The kids enjoyed the weather, we had a water slide and pool set up in the back yard so it was a perfect afternoon. I know it won't be long and we'll be planning this again next year!

A phobia may be described as an irrational fear of something. The American Psychiatric Association categorizes phobias into three groups: social phobia, agoraphobia and specific phobia. Dental phobia, which is the irrational fear of dentists and dental procedures, is a specific phobia. Dental fear is the adverse reaction people have towards the dentist as they know what he is going to do to them. This could be due to personal past experiences or from stories one may have heard that made them fearful. It is estimated that up to 15% of Americans suffer from this particular phobia.
There are various reasons why people fear going to the dentist. The most common cause is a previous traumatic experience at the dentist. This could either be because of the pain of the procedure or an unsettling experience at a dentist's office; these experiences usually take place as young children, when the person may not understand the procedure the dentist is doing. Hearing horror stories from other people may also cause anxiety; some people expect to have similar dental experiences as others. Hearing about someone else's bad experience might cause one to be hesitant to visit a dentist for fear they might have a similar experience. Other reasons for dental phobia may include a fear of loss of control, fear of choking, fear of needles, or other tools used in dentistry. The fear that one's teeth are worse than the average is also a common fear. It is important that patients express their concerns and speak with their dentist before they begin their work, as this will help the dentist to be more sensitive to the patient's needs and give the patient the opportunity to voice any fears or concerns.
Some trepidation or nervousness prior to a dentist visit is quite normal. Most people will suffer some anxiety; it is important to recognize the signs of dental phobia and deal with any fears head on. Some common signs of dental phobia include an anxious or exceedingly nervous feeling, and/or an upset stomach without any physical cause. It is quite common for people suffering from dental phobia to have sleepless nights before a dentist appointment. Other symptoms include trouble breathing during you dental appointment, irrational panic, trembling and tension. Dental phobia may lead to acute anxiety, such that the individual may never pay the dentist a visit leading to serious dental health problems.
Oral health is very important to overall well-being. Visiting a dentist, therefore, is a necessary evil. It is important to overcome any fears or anxieties to make sure you are taking care of your dental health and hygiene properly; seeing a dentist regularly will help to avoid more serious dental problems later on. Any person can beat dental fear. Finding an understanding dentist is an important step toward finding ways of coping with dental phobia. The dentist can do certain things to ease your anxiety during treatment. This may range from sedating the patient, administering anti-anxiety medicine or using a general anesthetic. He may also play soothing music to distract the patient. Long term options include hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, acupuncture and counseling. Dental phobia can be treated. It may help to take a family member or trusted friend with you to your dentist appointment to calm any fears.

Daughter got moved into her apartment in August to prepare for her first year of teaching. I spent some time with her helping her unpack her apartment and setting up her classroom. It was determined the second week of school that the enrollment for her grade was too small to justify keeping her at that school. So in the matter of about 3 days, we packed up her kindergarten room and moved her across town to another school to teach first grade. While this was traumatic on her and her students, it has worked out great and she has a wonderful class for her first year.
I am still teaching preschool two days a week and have a small fun class. I am subbing some at the elementary where I taught for 10 years before retiring. It is fun to see some of my former kindergarten students all grown up into 5th graders!
My niece married in October and I spent quite a bit of the fall making a surprise for her and her husband. I made a small quilt for them from their moms' wedding dresses and some scraps from the alterations on her dress. I didn't have a pattern and made it up as I went. While it was scary making the first cut into my sister-in-law's wedding dress, I think the quilt turned out very nice. They loved it.
In this picture you can see the topstitching on the seams and binding. It's a quilt as you go quilt. I thought it needed more definition on the seams. It was really quick to quilt up. (The blue leaf in background is the back of a quilt on which the striped quilt is lying.)
I made a quilt for a friend from Sunday School class who fell while moving and broke her neck. She is doing well now and has started a new job. I didn't get a picture of it but here is another quilt made for a lady who had some major surgery. I used the same pattern but the first quilt was white, pink, and aqua. Cat not included with either. The color is a little off on this one but best picture I can find. Backing has the teal, wine, and gold color in a floral.
We didn't get to go to our extended family Christmas in 2012 as there was big snow storm we would have had to travel through. So I saved the quilt I made for the gift exchange and took it this past Christmas. Enjoy the picture of our living room and the top of my head while you are at it! The fabrics are mostly Christmas prints with some red and green fabrics added in. Block pattern is called Disappearing 4 patch. There are several patterns on line if you want to try this block.
You may have heard of a "hard candy Christmas". Well this was a quilt Christmas.
Daughter loves chevrons and I made this one for her. I made it for a couch quilt but I think she keeps it at school so she has it when she has hall duty on cold mornings. The color is really off. the bottom under the turquoise is an off white and the middle row is a deep pink not red. I really need to work on a better place to take pictures where I can get more natural light. The pattern Chevron quilt is posted at a great blog - My Quilt Infatuation . Kelly shares some really pretty quilts there.
Here is a picture of it when I took to show and tell at my quilt club.
This is the quilt I made for my brother-in-law.
If you have never been there you should take a trip to Quiltville
This is one of Bonnie Hunter's free patterns called Strip Twist. I made it longer than her quilt by adding more blocks and I changed the border.
And here is the one I made for my husband. He likes an extra long quilt for his side of the bed. It looks long here but it was a little shorter than he needed so I added a couple more rows on one end to make it longer. Adding rows to a finished quilt is a complicated process! Try to avoid doing that

Neuroscientist Richard Davidson was probably paraphrasing the organizing principle of the World Health Organization* as he was interviewed for this week's episode of On Being. Dr. Davidson spoke about his work at the Center for Investigating Healthy Minds attempting to apply current neuroscience and a variety of meditative practices to increase well-being instead of merely eliminating illness. Is this an example of looking to the fruits of our efforts rather than the roots of our beliefs? Perhaps. Following, as it seems to, on the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn, it certainly makes intuitive sense that concentrating on healthy practices may be more beneficial than focusing only on understanding what is making us unhealthy.
I know not everyone appreciates Krista Tippett's approach to religion, metaphysics, or ethics, as expressed at On Being or its predecessor, Speaking of Faith, but how boring would it be if everyone did? Yes, she accepts Templeton Foundation money, which angers angry atheists and skeptics swimming at the scientism end of the pool, but she has made no claim to be irreligious or an impartial journalist. I find some episodes tangential, and a few needlessly credulous, but she has mapped a niche not addressed by reflexive extremes. I originally regarded the name change of the show with some cynicism, but have come to appreciate that Being is what we do even while we Speak about what we Believe.

For a while now, a kickass theme has been available for WordPress.com users, called the Duster theme. This theme has been converted for WordPress.org users and seems to be given a new name, the TwentyEleven.
TwentyEleven Theme
Theming for the Masses
I got plenty of good design and code considerations in this slideshow from Wordcamp Seattle 2011, by Michael Fields. I wish there's a presentation video somewhere.
Join the WordPress theme review team
Justin Tadlock invites you to join the WordPress theme review team. Any theme submitted to the WordPress.org Theme Directory gets reviewed by this team first, and the deluge of new themes is tough to handle by this small team of twelve.
I am not part of the team, but I've taken a look at their process. Being part of the team is without a doubt one of the best way to learn to be a world-class WordPress theme developer. You will learn so much, you begin to notice flaws even in the most popular WordPress themes, and instantly know how to make a better one.
Don't Mimic Real-World Interfaces
Ben Brooks talks about how creating realistic looking interfaces (like OSX Lion's iCal) is not necessarily the best option:
It's great that you spent 16 hours making that wood grain and stainless steel look exactly like the real thing — looks nice — but does your app work? Does your app make sense?
In terms of theme design, things are more lenient. I'd say that we can have a design based on real life objects, sceneries, and so on. But the novelty of it should not take priority over how well the design communicates a site's content.
Especially important since soon enough, we will stop distinguishing between a website and an app.
What's wrong with paid WordPress Themes: WooThemes vs ElegantThemes
Not only do the handy internal configuration tools for "quick customization" give clients every opportunity to break their own sites, they carry a lot of overhead. Your CSS files will be bloated as you are always offering the code for two column, three column and six or seven different colours.
The upshot is that these themes are generally not coded for best loading time. They have to include and do so many things (CSS, JS, queries) to cover all the possible combinations due to their huge set of features, every time you open a page, regardless whether you use these features or not!
It's not that having plenty of features is bad. It's the inefficiency that can be disadvantageous to the end users.
Technical Web Typography: Guidelines and Techniques
Recommended bookmark material. Covers the technical aspects of setting up typography on the web.
Designing Faster with a Baseline Grid
I'm to working with vertical grid. Not so with adding baseline grid, though, despite it being the key to having a typographic rhythm:
Building a horizontal grid is of course a fundamental step, but creating vertical rhythm is equally important. As Robert Bringhurst wrote in The Elements of Typographic Style: "Don't compose without a scale". Type should actually be the scale that defines almost everything else.
Read the article, and directly download their grid here.
Know Your Type: Myriad
Eugene Mosier, production art director at the time praised the typeface for its "proletarian feel," appropriately dubbing Myriad the "Volkswagen bug of typefaces."

The Black Keys Plotting New Documentary
Blues-rock duo the Black Keys are being filmed for an upcoming documentary on band life
Following in the footsteps of bands such as Foo Fighters and Metallica, the Black Keys are plotting a new documentary about the band. Speaking with SPIN, filmmaker Noah Abrams, who is good buddies with the blues-rock duo, explained that he's working on a documentary featuring Dan Auerbach (guitar, vocals) and Patrick Carney (drums). Abrams called the upcoming film as "a buddy comedy with perhaps the greatest soundtrack of all time."
"A lot of music documentaries spend too much time trying to make people look cool," Abrams said. "I'm fortunate enough to know both these guys pretty well and their relationship is pretty incredible and very funny."
Abrams added that he's been taping the Black Keys since the beginning of the year, and in the process, he's captured "some amazing footage" of the guys on their European and North American tours. Abrams says he he'll keep filming the band through August, and he's shooting to get the documentary to theaters sometime in 2013.
In other Black Keys news, the duo recently added a run of West Coast tour dates to promote their 2012 album, "El Camino." The band's West Coast tour kicks off on Oct. 1 in Fresno, Calif., and hits Los Angeles, Anaheim, San Diego and a handful of other cities before concluding on Oct. 10 in Las Cruces, N.M. The guys are also currently on the road, and for a complete list of Black Keys tour dates, visit the band's official website.

Lieutenant John Liu - SWAT Commander
We were looking for tactics that were progressive, safe, sound, and encouraged member development. We found our answer in FTF Tactics. What separates FTF from most other tactical trainers is the quality of their instructors. To begin with, they are all active SWAT members. This fresh and current perspective is invaluable during this climate of rapid change in both technology and suspect tactics. Additionally, the FTF instructors are candid and will give your team honest critiques. This is the most critical aspect of tactical teaching. Many teaching groups shy away from negative assessments. FTF instructors have the confidence to be honest but constructive. If your team wants to improve, be willing to listen, and FTF will be your guide.

To be honest, I was a bit anxious to see The Hobbit because of some bad reviews of the film which I read before I saw it myself. But it took about 1 minute and I was sold. Completely. Just to see The Shire on the big screen again was so great! I've seen it three times now, two times in 48fps 3D and one in 2D. The 48fps blew me away! I can't understand the critics on this new format, the flow, the movements and the crystal clear pictures was absolutely a joy to watch. Its no doubt that this format is the future, its just some conservative people out there who don't accept changes. The film itself was also a great joy to watch. I loved it! When that is said, the film don't quite reach the height that the LOTR-trilogy did for me, but I didn't expect that either. But The Hobbit is still an amazing film! My favorite part from the film is the prologue. It was so great to get to know the backstory of Thorin and the lost kingdom of Erebor, wich looks amazing! I can't wait to see more of that in the two next films. Its really hard to describe every scene in the film which I enjoyed, because there is so many of them. I can write in all eternity about: riddles in the dark, the acting, Dol Guldur, white council, goblin-town, the trolls, the shire, the start of the film, the ending of the film, but I will just say that all of it is amazing! In fact the entire film is a masterpiece, and Sir Peter Jackson has proven that he knows what he is doing. Finally, I will say that I am a die-hard fan of Tolkien and all of his works. I've waited for The Hobbit since I read the book back in 2003, when The Return of the King was smashing records worldwide! To see The Hobbit do the same thing today is unbeliveable when you think of the hard road to finally bringing The Hobbit to the world. My expectations were sky-high towards the film, and when I went out of the cinema after watching it the first time, I just smiled and could not stop of thinking of what I've just saw. And that says a lot! Now, bring on The Desolation of Smaug! :)

Safe click-on Mounting for M-Series Position Sensors
Lüdenscheid (11th January, 2011) - Offering protection type IP69K, the Temposonics connector system is now available universally for the whole M-Series sensors product range. Developed for reliable position measurement in mobile off-road machines, these sensors can be embedded completely into a hydraulic cylinder. Click-on mounting without the need of any tools saves valuable mounting time and increases the safety of the sensor installation. The sensor is installed in the hydraulic cylinder and connected electrically within seconds. Time-consuming connection of the cable conductors, polarity errors or "dry" solder joints are a matter of the past.
Developed primarily for the MH sensor model – the standard sensor for mobile hydraulics – the MTS connector system was soon highly appreciated by hydraulic cylinder and mobile machine manufacturers. After further development and optimisation, the unit can now be used to facilitate mounting and ensure safe connection of the compact Temposonics MS sensors and the redundant Temposonics MT sensors to the machine electronics. The connector system is in compliance with the most exacting protection requirements according to DIN EN 60529. With protection type IP69K, the robust metal housing is not only absolutely dustproof, but penetration of water inside the cylinder is also prevented. It is able to withstand even extremely hard cleaning conditions using high-pressure equipment.
The connector system is prefabricated and delivered in conjunction with the M-Series position sensors, i.e. its contact carrier is already connected to the sensor conductors. When mounting, the contact carrier is taken out of the cylinder through a bore hole, and the flanged housing can be clicked in position easily from outside. During installation of the cylinder unit into the mobile machine, the M-Series sensors can be connected at different angles using a universal M12x1 connector. The minimized installation height of the connector system ensures successful cylinder mounting even under limited space conditions.

Mark Mancino has always been an avid researcher and historical fan of economic strategy and theory. Recently there has been a big talk about John Keynes and Ludwig von Mises. Here' s brief history of the two. What do you think of their policies and beliefs?
John Maynard Keynes and Ludwig von Mises are two of the most well-known economists in history. The two men both lived in the same era, being born in the 1880's, but had different economic ideas. Mises is considered a neo-classical economist, while Keynes founded a more modern movement which took his name: Keynesian economics.
Mises, along with his most famous student Friedrich August von Hayek, was one of the most prominent members of the Austrian school of economic thought. Though born and educated in Austria, Mises moved to the United States during the 1930's to escape Nazi oppression. Many historians believe that this event greatly impacted his economic thinking. Mises believed that governments are unable to efficiently direct a nation economy due to the complexity of the economy and the slow nature of government response. He believed that economies performed best without government interference.
Keynes is the most influential economist of the modern era. Keynes was born and lived in England. Though Keynes also lived during the rise of Nazism in Europe, most historians believe he was most influenced by the Great Depression. Keynes believed that governments could make decisions regarding monetary policy and other factors to influence the economy in order to smooth out economic cycles. In the United States, the policy decisions of the Federal Reserve to raise and lower interest rates to increase or decrease economic activity to manage inflation is an example of Keynesian intervention in the economy.
The most simplistic explanation of the differences between Keynes and Mises is that Keynes believed that governments could play an active and beneficial role in a nation's economy, while Mises believed that government intervention caused more harm than good. Though the governments of most European nations and the United States have used Keynesian practices in the late 20th and 21st centuries, there is still considerable debate in these countries as to the effectiveness of these policies.

That is what Jodi and Donald have done to Shelby and Ronald.
These children were stripped of their true identities. They've lost out on the love of their left-behind father, family and their roots.
What does this do to a child when the abductor not only takes them away from their home and the left behind parent, but then takes away their "true" identity too?
Inserting another man, his family and name in place of the real, biological father and extended family, is appalling. Ron never agreed to any of this. It was stolen from him and his children because of Jodi and Donald's overwhelming narcissistic needs. So self-centered the pair of them. So cruel. So harsh. They didn't want to murder the children or Ron (or did they?) They definitely wanted to murder any relationship or love between them and their father, Ron. Isn't that emotional abuse? Isn't that child abuse? Isn't that a "hate crime"? Then after all of this was done. Donald divorced Jodi and got primary custodial care of Shelby and Ronald. Was that his hidden agenda all along?? So now Jodi and Ron's two children are not in the primary custody of either of their "true-biological" parents. What a clusterf....k. What a mess was created for these children by their own mother. Such incompetence. So, now that is four children she brought into this world that she lost custody of. In your own sick mind, Jodi, you thought you were the better parent of the two of you...between You and Ron?? Well, in my opinion, and not so humble at this point in time, you weren't and you aren't because of the abuse you have inflicted upon your own family and children you profess to love. What a sick and twisted form of love. Most parental abductors are the least mentally stable and competent of the two parents which I have come to concur. Jodi has been institutionalized twice by her family because of her own mental health issues. Here is a link on information about the different kinds alienating parents.
Wait, there's more. Jodi's claims we're criminals, stalkers, predator's, pedophiles, extortionists and murderers...implying that she doesn't know who we are and that Ron is not the father of her children. Wait a minute...isn't that ....a delusion?? It is hard not to LOL!! Wasn't Ron there at the birth of Shelby and Ronald and signed paternal papers at the time. Hmmmm...plus wasn't there a DNA test performed many years back when she went on welfare proving paternity of Ron as the biological father?? He had to pay to have the test taken so that she could collect child support from him.
So "needy" to create a fictitious family of her own creation that she can't/won't or isn't able to recognize their "true" biological father. Jodi puts assertions/accusations out there but won't take responsibility for what she says by attaching her name to her assertions on her blogger site. What integrity and credibility is there with that?
Then there's even more...Jodi also had Ron's name removed from his children's birth certificates and Donald's name inserted in his place. Aren't birth certificates suppose to be proof of a live birth, parentage and actually what transpired at the time of birth? That was always my understanding and what I was taught in nursing school, 30+ years ago. I guess not any more. So what is the point of having a certificate of live birth if it can be changed after the fact? It is not an accurate representation of what actually occurred at the time of birth. Well, it is another theft of their "true" identity. They may have done it "legally". Through the court system. Is what they did morally and ethically correct? Is it right? So, now-a-days if you have the money, a lawyer and know what laws to use, you can buy most anything you want. Even, a child's name, identity and a new birth certificate. I call it "legal kidnapping". What happens when Shelby and Ronald get older, have children of their own? What happens when health issues and genetic lineage questions arise such as the fact that Jodi has the incurable genetic condition Alpha One from which she is dieing? Do Jodi and Donald really have a clear understanding of what they have stolen from Shelby, Ronald and their future children? I doubt it. Otherwise any rational person knows what they did was clearly wrong and would never have done it. A mistake. A violation of Shelby, Ronald and Ron's family lineage, heritage....their legacy. It was identity theft....perpetrated by someone they loved and trusted. Their own mother. So, so sad. So, so heartbreaking. It is child abuse
and "The Ultimate Hate Crime". Jodi and Donald are accountable for what they've done to Ron, Shelby, Ronald and their future children.
They owe the three of them an apology and need to make amends for the madness, pain and suffering they have caused....Shame on you Jodi and Donald. Yes, I'm an advocate for Ron and his children. Yes, I'm angry because of what you stole from them. Using the pretense that it was done "legally" doesn't mean it was the right thing to do. Just because something is "legal" doesn't mean it is morally or ethically "right". I call it "Legal Kidnapping".
This is Shelby's current birth certificate. It is not the original.
She was born Shelby Sue Cornett with Ronald Cornett as the biological father, along with the paternity papers Ron signed at her birth....not Griffing. Donald wasn't there. He didn't even know Jodi, Shelby or Ron at the time of her birth. The same goes for Ron's son, Ronald Daniel.
Here is a video I made that I dedicated to Jodi as she comes to terms with the "madness" of the situation she has created for herself before she dies....for we are not giving up on Ron's children or going away as Jodi wishes. We are here to state "The Other Side of the Story"-"Ron's Story" until his children whom he loves and misses very much are recovered and reunited with their real "biological" father.

The photo of a sign from an unnamed daycare has moms on both sides of the work/don't-work divide screaming at each other into the Facebook comment abyss. The issue? When moms show up at the end of the day with a cellphone glued to one ear.
"Your child is happy to see you," the sign reads. "Are you happy to see them??" It later calls moms who take time to talk on their cellphone during pick-up as "appalling," ending with the second of two demands that moms "get off your phone."
Initially posted to Facebook by a woman named Juliana Farris Mazurkewicz, the image has already accumulated more than 379,000 shares and plenty of perfect parents piling on in the comment section to insist they've never done something like this.
Are they better parents than those who are weighing in on a conference call while putting on a toddler's coat? Not according to a few working moms who expressed their distaste for the sign in the 2,000+ comment thread.
"My mom stayed on her phone picking us from school and dropping us off she was always taking care of business while taking care of us and raised us all on her own," one mom noted.
"Maybe it's a parent who has a business call! Maybe it's a parent dealing with another child's school, so many maybes," another posted.
Most moms would really prefer not to be juggling a phone, a backpack, a macaroni necklace and their 3-year-old's hand at 5:30 p.m., but these sort of sacrifices have become an increasing necessity in a society where more moms are working than ever before. In fact, in 40 percent of households with kids, working moms are either the sole or primary breadwinner. And while the number of families with two working parents has increased, in more than half, the mother still pulls the lion's share of the work when it comes to managing kids' schedules, discipline and playing with their own kids.
RELATED: 10 Things Not to Say to a Working Mom
Working mothers are expected to be "on" every time they're around their kids, but they're also supposed to be stellar employees who bring home the bacon and perfect homemakers who juggle pediatrician appointments and soccer practice with ease.
The societal pressure is intense. Many find it easy to cast the mom with a cellphone nestled between her ear and her shoulder as a monster who can't take a few minutes out of her me-me-me focused world to show her kids some love. But consider this possibility:
Did she run out of work early to get to the daycare before it closes, but called back in because she knows that her parenting status made her less desirable as a hire and makes her more likely to be fired than her colleagues who don't have kids?
Is she trying to make calls about dinner or t-ball or the dozens of other bits of minutiae that her partner hasn't keyed in on because 64 percent of moms in two-parent households say that they do more than their spouse or partner when it comes to managing their children's schedule and activities?
RELATED: The Gender Pay Gap Solution
Is she making calls about a sick family member, because some 20 percent of all female workers in the U.S. are also family caregivers?
No one dobuts that kids need their parents' attention as much as their love. Working moms, it could be argued, need society's assumptions and judgment, well, not at all.

On February 19, Sandy Cline came to Olivet School to teach the students in grades 3-6 how to sculpt stone. In the picture above, the students are working on a piece of pre-cut stone.
Each student starts out with a roughly cut piece of stone. They have to file, shape, sand, and smooth it to look like the loon above.
This sculpture was created by Sandy Cline and is named "Dinner and Dance".
Sandy Cline and his wife Rita pose with Sandy's sculpture "Dinner and Dance".
Sandy Cline uses the sharp saw to further shape the beak, which must then be filed and sanded into shape.
Some of the students got dusty!
The students polish and wash the carvings in water to remove excess dust. The carvings are also sanded in the water with fine sandpaper.
The carvings are heated before beeswax is melted onto them.
The wax being melted on the carvings.
The wax has to be cooled in water and the wax is buffed to a shine.
The students were very happy with the end result!

Stag's Take – Gameweek 1
It's just 25 days since July 15th 2018, when Hugo Lloris lifted the World Cup in Moscow amidst torrential rain and an umbrella crisis amongst the various assmebled politicians on-hand for the presentation. It has been a whirlwind run-in to today for Premier League teams as pre-seasons were heavily interrupted by the international absentees whilst transfer business and rumours dominated the headlines as the new pre-GW1 transfer deadline loomed large.
In the end, Premier League clubs spent a gross sum of £1,256,500,000 (Approx. $1,611,100,000) on attracting new talent, and that's not even including potential add-ons! The biggest net spenders were Liverpool whilst Spurs actually made a net profit of £2.2 million as they failed to sign… uhm… anyone.
The disturbed pre-seasons, the new transfer deadline, and a few curious injury crises have made picking a GW1 squad much harder than previous years. This column aims to run you through the different decisions I'm trying to make for my own GW1 squad ahead of Friday evening's deadline.
There are three typical approaches to stoking this position.
A. One elite goalkeeper (6.0/5.5) and 4.0 value fodder player (Think Ben Hamer, Julian Speroni, etc.)
B. Rotating goalkeepers – usually two 4.5 ones. The best option available early on this season is Alex McCarthy and Lukasz Fabianski. Between them you can field a GK at home to Burnley, Bournemouth, Leicester, Wolves, and Brighton consecutively in the first five gameweeks.
C. A starting 'keeper and their sub. A good example would be Pickford/Stekelenburg, who would set you back 9.0 like two 4.5s would.
I personally prefer to take the easiest option and pick a good trustworthy goalkeeper. David de Gea (6.0) stands out. Manchester United's ace finished last season as the Golden Glove winner with 18 clean sheets and, oddly for a Top Six 'keeper, he was also in the top five 'keepers with saves on 115. Obviously that's a product of Mourinho's tactics and given that they haven't done much to address that this summer, that service should continue. The fact that de Gea is so good, coupled with the fact that United's defence is an unpredictable mess at present, means that owning the Spaniard is by far the easiest way to make sure you benefit from Man Utd's inevitable clean sheet points.
If you want a defender to ensure you enjoy the spoils from United's clean sheets, I think Eric Bailly (5.5) will prove the safest option in the long-term.
Defence is all about trying to get the best of both worlds; reaping the rewards from attacks but notching up clean sheet points too. In recent seasons, the rise of the 3-4-3 formation has precipitated the ascent of some great wing-backs in FPL like Chelsea's Marcos Alonso and Victor Moses. Other teams play more orthodox set-ups like Everton's Coleman and Baines have likewise been in high demand.
Andy Robertson (6.0) is a standout option in FPL this reason. Robertson caught the eye bombing forward for the Reds on the left flank enough to be the 18th highest scoring defender in FPL last season even though he started just 22/38 games. He racked up five assists and a goal in that period. About a third of his 1900 odd touches came in the final third, notching up a dozen attempts on his opponents' goals. Seven of those shots were inside the box. "Robbo" is likely to up his assist numbers this season. He created eight big chances in Liverpool's last campaign, which is a total just three short of the best in the PL, Cesar Azpilicueta, despite playing 1,357 minutes less. Robertson is a nailed-on starter in a side with an attacking intent and he's really good at it. I think he's essential.
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City haven't continued their defence spending this season, instead it seems Pep is happy with his lot. Benjamin Mendy (6.0) is pretty much a new signing though, having missed a huge amount of last season. As an attacking full-back who is cheaper than his compatriot on the other side, Kyle Walker (6.5), Mendy looks like the best way to access Pep's defence. Man City conceded the least goals of any team in the league last term, it would be folly to go without a City defender early in the season.
I had originally felt that a Chelsea defender was an essential, however the arrival of Kepa and the general uncertainty around the club in the lead up to deadline day has spooked me for now. I plan to Wildcard early (within the first five gameweeks, I think) to take advantage of the form teams and players. I'm happy to back up my beliefs by rejecting Chelsea defenders for my Gameweek 1 squad. If you are picking one, Antonio Rudiger (6.0) seems to have a safe position at centre-back and he poses a good threat from set-pieces. David Luiz (5.5) seems to have escaped Stamford Bridge exile again for now. He will probably be their cheapest starting defender in GW1.
FPL managers seek out OOP (out of position) players in FPL like the Holy Grail. A few seasons ago, Josh King rampaged as a forward even though the PL classified him as a midfielder; Marcos Alonso's touches in the box surpassed Harry Kane often, making a mockery of his classification as a defender. Whilst we can't be certain on who will play OOP this season, it seems like Leicester's Ricardo Pereira (5.0) will be starting as a right-winger even though he is listed as a defender in FPL. For me, there's no loss if he starts as a defender, but a lot to gain by having a differential OOP defender who is not afraid to shoot.
Expensive defenders proved themselves to be a cost-effective way of deploying budget last season and so to balance off my backline, I have two cheapies. Aaron Wan-Bissaka (4.0) looks to have secured the right-back berth at Crystal Palace, having started all but one of their pre-season fixtures in the position. He's 100% in my team as a playing enabler. There are quite a lot of good options at 4.5 this season. Phil Jagielka (4.5) had looked like a steal after Ashley Williams left Goodison but now that Yerry Mina has joined, my feet have developed frostbite. James Tomkins and Shane Duffy/Lewis Dunk seem to be the standout candidates in that bracket now.
Mo Salah (13.0) is owned by 53.5% of managers in FPL right now. You get no prizes for being interesting, different, and ultimately wrong in FPL – I don't see how anyone can conscionably go without the Egyptian in GW1, especially after he demonstrated that his finishing touch hasn't deserted him over the summer months in Russia and on the beach.
Beyond Salah, every midfield slot is open for debate as far as I'm concerned. As of now, Bernardo Silva (7.5) is the second most valuable player in my side. The Portuguese has enjoyed a good pre-season and he was singled out for praise by his manager in the wake of the Community Shield last weekend. That's enough to convince me that his starting place is safe in the short term (two or three GWs) at City. When he was on the pitch, he was very effective at stealing a goal or assist.
Pedro (6.5) seems to be in Maurizio Sarri's good books at the moment having signed a one-year extension to his current contract in the last week. The ex-Barca man has been a very capable FPL asset in the past and having started the Community Shield, he looks to have secured a starting spot at Chelsea whilst Willian sorts his head out of nearly leaving the club (or did he ever consider it if it was his daughter that put those trophy emojis on Conte?).
Even as I write this article, with less than 24 hours to kick-off in the first game of the season at Old Trafford, I'm still not certain who will feature in my midfield. I am still considering trying to get a second Man City midfielder in (namely Leroy Sané) but as of now I have two cheap options from promoted clubs. Fulham's Tom Cairney (5.0) looked fantastic last season in the Championship and he chipped in six goals and five assists for the club – a respectable tally at his price. He has scored 13 goals the season before. Cairney averaged 1.84 key passes per game in the league in '17/18, again a respectable tally. Ruben Neves (5.0) is sitting beside him in my midfield currently, but his ill-discipline (11 yellows last term) is very off-putting. His most enticing characteristic is that he appears to be the promoted champions' designated penalty taker.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (11.0) is a player I have described as "fixture-proof" this week owing to his fantastic form in spite of playing alongside Arsenal's underperforming team at the tail-end of last season. However, after Sergio Aguero's (11.0) Community Shield brace, I was forced to downgrade the Gabonese to his French teammate Alexandre Lacazette (9.5). Auba scored 10 times in a dozen league games for The Gunners last season, maintaining a record close to the 0.97 goals per game he held at Dortmund from 2016 to his winter window move in 2018. Lacazette just seemed to improve because of Auba's presence and thus I'm trying to feed off Auba's success for a cheaper price.
Interestingly, the most owned forward in FPL is Roberto Firmino (9.5), a player whom I have excluded purely because I have already spent so much of my budget on Mo Salah. This is a decision which may come back to bite me, but what I am trying to do is spread myself across the league's top teams so that I benefit early on no matter what whilst also being in the position to sell another elite player to bet harder on whichever club happens to be in-form.
There are a plethora of strong mid-priced forward options. Josh King (6.5) has scored four times in pre-season for Bournemouth and he looks to be bringing back the form which saw him linked with summers throughout the summer of 2017. Marko Arnautovic's rebirth at West Ham seems to have gone from strength to strength over the break since GW38 last May. The Austrian looks to be starting as a forward for Manuel Pellegrini in pre-season and he has been rewarding the new coach handsomely for his faith. The Chilean's signings of Felipe Anderson, Yarmolenko, and Lucas Perez all seem like positive additions who will improve the flow of chances to "Arnie". Somehow, Wilfried Zaha (7.0) is still at Crystal Palace. Once he finds form, the Ivory Coast international is phenomenal and capable of carrying The Eagles on his back… the question is, will he? It can't have been an easy transfer window for him as speculation swirled around him constantly. I'm going to give him a chance to impress first, and I would place my faith in descending order of Arnie, King, and Zaha for Gameweek 1.
I hope this article has helped you broaden your mind ahead of Gameweek 1. I feel like all the stats have been published at this point and so now FPL is boiling down to its "meta" elements. Ensure you cover the top defences, choose Mo Salah, and don't try to be a hero making obscure picks throughout your squad. If you do those three things, you're already ahead of the curve for the start of the season. I will be writing a weekly column here on Rotoworld all season, doing my best to dissect the biggest debates raging in the minds of managers every week. Usually, this article concludes with a captaincy section, where I write an extended blurb on all three options. Today I will just provide a three name list since all the players on it have already been mentioned above.
Captains Corner
1. The main pick: Mo Salah v West Ham (H)
2. Slightly off-centre: Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang v Man City (H)
3. Brave: Josh King vs Cardiff City (H)
Good luck this season. Remember, it's a marathon, not a sprint!

Kris Bryant broke many hearts over the weekend.
Kris Bryant married longtime girlfriend Jessica Delp over the weekend and some people across the country are heartbroken.
Bryant and Delp have been dating since high school. Bryant is living one of the best lives at the moment with a World Series title, the National League MVP award and a wedding in the last few months.
The wedding looked fantastic. Several of his Cubs teammates and Bryant's good friend Bryce Harper were in attendance.
Many took to Twitter to express their sadness:

There were reportedly five million people in attendance for the Cubs' World Series parade and rally. My guess is that more than half of them are also really sad to see Bryant off the market but very happy for him at the same time.

A Randomized Phase II Clinical Trial to Determine the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of an Allogeneic Whole Cell Vaccine Administered With or Without Autologous Myeloid Dendritic Cells to Patients With Non-Metastatic Androgen Independent Prostate Carcinoma
- To compare the progression-free survival rate at 1 year in patients with
androgen-independent non-metastatic prostate cancer treated with allogeneic prostate
cancer cell vaccine (APCC) with vs without autologous myeloid dendritic cells.
- To compare the toxicities of these regimens in these patients.
- To compare the overall survival, progression-free survival, time to PSA progression,
and duration of PSA-based response in patients treated with these regimens.
- To compare the quality of life of patients treated with these regimens.
- To evaluate the ability of the novel dendritic cell-APCC vaccination strategies to
induce vaccine-specific immune response in these patients.
OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to 2-year survival probability (< 30% vs ≥ 30%).
Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
- Arm I: Patients receive allogeneic prostate cancer cell vaccine (APCC) intradermally
(ID) on days 0, 14, and 28 and then every 28 days for up to 14 courses in the absence
of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
- Arm II: Patients undergo standard leukapheresis to harvest peripheral blood mononuclear
cells for dendritic cell vaccine preparation. Patients receive the APCC vaccine and
autologous dendritic cells derived from CD14-positive myeloid peripheral blood cells ID
on days 0, 14, and 28 and then every 28 days for up to 14 courses in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients undergo blood sample collection periodically for translational studies. Samples are
measured for a number of immune parameters by quantifying T-cell and dendritic cell
populations by analysis of surface marker molecules by flow cytometry, T-cell proliferation
assay, non-specific cytokine release, lysate-specific cytokine release, and cytokine
expression measured by cytometric bead array and qPCR.
Patients complete quality-of-life questionnaires periodically.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for up to 3 years.
Allocation: Randomized, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Progression-free survival rate at 1 year as assessed by radiographic studies and PSA levels

Chennai: Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni rued the absence of a fifth bowler and said his part-timers struggled on a sheepish wicket. India lost by six wickets to Pakistan in the first ODI at the Chepauk here Sunday.
Dhoni, who was adjudged Man of the Match for his unbeaten 113, said it was difficult to make a comeback into the game after India lost their first five wickets for just 29 runs.
"It was a bad toss to lose, but I am happy with my batting. There was something for the fast bowlers, but they also pitched it in the right areas. Once we lost five wickets, it was difficult to come back," Dhoni said.
"We delayed the slog to get to a respectable score - 227 was a good score from where we were, but not enough in the end. The wicket got better later and our part-timers struggled."
Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq was all praise for his left-arm pacer, Junaid Khan, who ended the match with figures of four for 43.
Junaid accounted for four of the top five batsmen, castling Virender Sehwag, Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh.
"It was really good toss to win and the spell by Junaid Khan was very good. He has done it before in a Test match in Sri Lanka. Good to see that the bowlers pitched in the right areas in helping conditions. There was a change in the nature of the pitch. It was more difficult to play in the first half, very well played by Dhoni," said Misbah.
Misbah also took the opportunity to praise his opener, Nasir Kamshed, who smashed an unbeaten 101, taking Pakistan to victory with 11 balls to spare.
"Nasir played an extremely good knock and showed the way by finishing the game. Humidity was a factor as both teams found it hard. Credit must be given to both teams' fast bowlers for bowling in such conditions."
