SHOWJUMPING KEYSOE SMALL PONY PREMIER 3-4 February A birthday boy's perfect present 'We keep asking and he keeps giving': Ollie Fry and Colliyers Pal Joey cruise to victory in the winter 128cm A sole treble clear clinches a win for Ollie Fry, while an eight-year-old champ gets into the groove to triumph and three battle it out in a finale finish Keysoe Small Pony Premier, Beds RIDERS aged 14 and under arrived in huge numbers at this popular venue, where they were chasing 10 tickets to the Royal International Horse Show (RIHS) at the third qualifying show of the winter series. Saturday's 128cm second round set the scene for the rest of the show. David Cole's course needed concentration, but three pairs jumped against the clock in round three. Ollie Fry then gave himself a late 12th birthday present with the sole treble clear on Colliyers Pal Joey. The 11-year-old gelding and Wiltshire-based Ollie had a great 2017, culminating in third place at Olympia. "We keep asking and he keeps giving," said Ollie's father Jamie, himself a former toplevel showjumper. Dad may have been delighted by qualification, but the best thing as far as Ollie was concerned was By PENNY RICHARDSON the coveted winner's rug, given by the show organisers for all four second rounds. "I've never won one before and it's brilliant," he said. One of the show's most extraordinary results came from Connie Mensley. This eight-yearold from Leicestershire is the reigning national 10-and-under style and performance champion and represented the Quorn branch of the Pony Club in the mini major at Olympia, but she had never attempted anything like this before. Connie never missed a beat on Madonna, with a couple of time-faults in round three, leaving them in second place. The 15-year-old Madonna, who won at Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) for Amy Morris last year, joined Connie, who is helped by Tanya Kyle, in January. "I talked my mum into letting me have a go in the class last night," said Connie. We suspect that Mum is glad she agreed! The already qualified Izabella Rogers (Whinney Lass) finished third, so the final RIHS place went to Ellie Burrell-Squibb, the fastest four-faulter from round two on Telynau Royal Damask. Ellie, 11, has grown so fast that her 128cm ponies are now for sale, but she will ride at Hickstead if she still has "Damask". Tabitha Kyle just missed qualification on Borderhill William, but the 10-year-old bounced back in the best possible way to win the winter 138cm second round on her Liverpool International champion Lissduff Royal. Twelve of a classy field reached round two, with seven going against the clock. Tabitha then set the standard on the 15-yearold gelding who came to her in December 2016. They were deceptively quick, as was proved when Claudia Moore set sail on the already qualified Tullineaskey Fear Deas and had to settle for second place. Tabitha, who just missed qualification in Scotland, had to work hard to keep her pony's concentration. "He doesn't like it here, although we are regulars. He's a bit of a monkey and he either wins or decides it's not for him," said Tabitha's father, Mark. The second ticket went to Devon, courtesy of Jake Myers and the amazing 25-year-old The Agent, a pony looking fitter than many half his age. "He's our pony of a lifetime and has taken us to places we'd only dreamt of," said Jake's mum Joanna. "We thought of retiring him, but he loves his job so much. He just hacks between shows and never gets jumped at home." Iwan Carpenter already had one RIHS place booked and added another ticket in fourth place on Follow Jazzy Lady. THE KYLES CLEAR UP SUNDAY'S qualifiers turned into a "Kylefest" after Tabitha won the winter 128cm second round and took another 138cm ticket. The pressure was off when only Tabitha and Olivia Sponer (Trefriw Eros) reached round two of the 128cm class to take the two In tune: Connie Mensley and Madonna soar in the winter 128cm Pictures by hoofprintsphotography.co.uk 60 Horse & Hound 8 February 2018
tickets on offer, although Henry Squibb was desperately unlucky when he and Pussy Cat Doll were clear, finishing a heartbreaking 0.17 of a second over the time allowed. Another clear from Coreys Princess was good enough to land Tabitha the win after Olivia and her chestnut rolled a pole. The Kyles bought Coreys Princess in Ireland as a green four-year-old. "She got fatter and we then realised that she was in-foal. We now have her three-yearold son at home," said Tabitha's mother Tanya. Eleven-year-old Olivia Sponer lives in London — "next door to Olympia" — and commutes to Windsor to ride her ponies. Olivia, who has joint British, American and German nationality, has produced Trefriw Eros from bronze league classes to top level. "She just missed out on HOYS twice last year, so we're hoping to be in it to win it this season," said her mother Jennifer. The 138cm equivalent was another great competition, although Rachel Proudley could probably have done without some of the excitement. In the Tabitha Kyle (Lissduff Royal) tops the winter 138cm second round nine-pony jump-off, she and Buttons Two parted company and the pony enjoyed herself throughout an impromptu looseschooling session that included some of the jump-off fences! The finish was fought out by already qualified combinations. Jake Myers and The Agent set the ball rolling with a terrific clear and when Claudia Moore just missed the time on Sonas Barney, it looked as though they had done enough. But back came Claudia with one of the rounds of the show on Tullineaskey Fear Deas to win by more than half a second. Claudia added her results here to first and second places at South View and a runner-up spot in Scotland. "I messed up there because I was four seconds late starting my jump-off round," she confided. The top RIHS ticket went to Tabitha Kyle, whose round on Playboy Van De Zoetewei was good enough for fourth. "He's only seven, so I went for a clear and hoped I'd done enough," she said. Fifth-placed Luli Loveridge and Arrow Head Quiver just missed out the previous day and RESULTS 3 Feb: sml pony 90cm.— 1, Foyfins Close Call (M Digby); 2, Red Sail Lady (M Spittle); 3, Glenairlie Miss Moneypenny (K Bromley). 11 & under.— 1, 17 tied.

Today, the official presentation of smartphone Honor 8 Pro. Instead of its boring description, we decided to prepare a first look at the model, and in a couple of weeks we will make a full review.
Honor 8 Pro: Design
I do not know if you remember it or not, but Honor 8 has definitely the coolest color. It was clear in the company, so for Honor 8 Pro it was left among the available ones. We were lucky, on the test was a version of the smartphone of this color. I went with the device for a couple of days, but enjoyed it with pleasure. Aluminum pleasantly cold hands, the body beautifully poured into the light, it's nice that the front part, too, made blue. The antenna inserts and the camera do not bulge, in general, the sensations from the assembly are purely positive.
The bottom buttons are onscreen, while in the settings you can change their location, there is also a button for their quick hide. A good, thought-out solution.
Honor 8 Pro: Dimensions
Despite the large diagonal, Honor 8 Pro feels excellent in its hand, it is moderately thin (7 mm), but its light can not be called, the weight of the model is 184 grams. However, it is evenly distributed, so I did not feel any discomfort during use.
Honor 8 Pro: Screen
Frankly, the first time I assumed that the smartphone uses the AMOLED-matrix, it is too juicy and vivid colors in it, however, as it turned out, I was wrong.
The screen has a very high contrast, the picture is bright, colorful, I would even say that it can compete with AMOLED-displays. QHD-resolution perfectly fits the screen diagonal, pixelation is invisible. In general, it's a pleasure to use the display in Honor 8 Pro.
The settings has a cool function – scaling. In fact, it changes the DPI in the system, so if the standard interface is too large for you or, on the contrary, small, it's easy to fix. By the way, we recently had a great article about scaling, I recommend reading.
Honor 8 Pro: Operating system
The smartphone runs on Android 7.0 along with the proprietary EMUI 5.1 shell. Huawei has one of the most functional shells, here you can change the grid, and the type of desktops you choose (all on the screen or from the application menu), and the behavior of applications to customize, and much more. By the way, the problem with notifications seems to have finally been solved.
Honor 8 Pro: Performance
The model uses its own chipset Kirin 960, its performance is close to Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, for more details about the speed of work, let's talk in full review. At first impressions, the device is fast, very fast.
Honor 8 Pro: Battery life
In my mode of use (mail, twitter, web surfing, enabled synchronization, mobile Internet, social networks and instant messengers), the device issues about six hours of the screen on. These are very good indicators, usually in similar scenarios it is difficult to achieve more than four hours of screen operation.
The smartphone supports fast charging, unfortunately, the figures for the speed of the charge will not be, since we did not have the appropriate adapter in the kit.
Honor 8 Pro: Camera
Huawei is gradually moving its entire lineup to dual cameras, and this, in my opinion, is correct. If the company has a key advantage, why not use it? Below – a few examples of pictures, in more detail about the camera, we will tell in a full review.
Honor 8 Pro: Wireless interfaces
And although we are talking about the model of the middle segment, Honor 8 Pro has everything at all! And full support for LTE-bands, and NFC-module, and even an infrared port with the appropriate application for management of technology.
For a couple of days of use I have only positive impressions from Honor 8 Pro: cool design, excellent display, long time of operation, good camera, functional shell, maximum support for wireless interfaces. Let's see how much good price it will put in Huawei.
And what do you say about new smartphone, dear readers?

Perhaps it was the rain that enhanced the mystical ambiance, but I really enjoyed the gardens and sub temples. The serenity and tranquility of Japanese gardens is so hard to capture in pictures. We sat on the wooden patio listening to the rain, enjoying that moment in time and communing with nature.
Love the stars of moss that cover all the Japanese gardens....reminds me of Miyazaki. My takeaway from all these Japanese gardens is you see how deeply Miyazaki's work is influenced by Japanese nature.
Indeed an amazing sight and lives up to its tourist name. It would've been so much cooler if we could actually enter it though! As we were taking pictures and admiring the building it started pouring, but hey, we got dramatic cloud pictures and saw how the draining of the building worked.
En Tea Ceremony
Would NOT recommend this place to experience a tea ceremony. It cost 2000 yen for a sweet and a cup of matcha that you make yourself. Though it was held in a traditional tatami room, the experience felt like it was pared to the bare minimum and rushed. Traditional matcha doesn't taste good either. In fact, it's quite bitter for tea, which is why it's always served with a sweet to balance out the flavor.
Yasaka Shrine
I really liked visiting the shrines at night. Not only can you avoid the crowds of people, they usually have dramatic lighting and great night views, though it may be slightly creepy if you're alone.
Ended the night wandering in Gion hoping to catch a maiko, but failed. It's an interesting neighborhood because it looks like it's taken out of a set of a Japanese period movie and it's filled with drinking establishments and fancy restaurants, yet it's very quiet and very secretive. We tried entering a place hoping to grab a drink and were declined. But that's okay because we ended up finding an izakaya and a friend. All in all, a great way to relax on my first day as a tourist :)

Here is an expert NFL handicapper's rundown of the entire slate for Week 5 complete with our over-under NFL picks for each and every game.
The 'over' enjoyed a 10-3 edge in week 4 NFL betting, resulting in a perceptible shift in the overarching season's totals with the 'over' inching ahead 32-29 after four weeks. What will week 5 NFL deliver?
Week 4 Recap
Last week we enjoyed a pretty successful stab at over-under NFL picks, going 11-2 with our only misses being a) predicting the Over 50.5 for the Eagles and Niners before they settled on a 26-21 score, and b) predicting the Under 41.0 for the Dolphins and Raiders before they settled on a 38-14 score in London. Handicapping what happens on the field isn't easy and getting over-under NFL picks right is challenging. But we're brave enough to take another stab at it this week with our full slate of NFL picks. Let's see how we do this time.
Vikings vs. Packers O/U 47.5
Teddy Bridgewater or Christian Ponder? Who will start? Better question, does it matter? Vikings participated in the highest scoring game on Sunday when they beat the Falcons 41-28. True, Bridgewater played well, but Falcons' defense isn't exactly Fort Knox is it. It's one of the lowest ranked in the league. Packers beat the Bears 38-17, the first game where they looked balanced on both sides of the ball particularly in the second half. Rodgers' high-octane offense put up the scores, and while Jay Cutler and the Bears did get away with over 302 yards passing offense defense held the Bears to just 56 yards rushing on 18 attempts and rendered them pointless in the second half. By contrast, Vikings gave up 411 yards of total offense to the Falcons and Matt Ryan put up three touchdowns. One has to believe the r-e-l-a-x-ed Aaron Rogers will have a field day at the expense of the Vikings at the Lambeau.
NFL Picks: Over 47.5
Falcons vs. Giants O/U 50.0
Confidence in the Falcons has wavered since their 41-28 defeat to the Vikings behind a rookie quarterback in week 4 NFL betting. The main criticism: defensively, they're a suspect and have trouble taking care of the ball. That's something Eli Manning and the west coast offense will look to capitalise on now that it's clicking. Last week, the Giants put up 45 points against the Redskins on the road, all while holding the Redskins offense to just 14 points. That said the Falcons are second in the league in passing offense, averaging 322.3 passing yards per game and 32.8 points per game. Giants aren't too far behind with an average of 25.8 yards per game to 231.3 passing yards per game. Everything about this game suggests a winning NFL pick based on the 'over', a shootout even between Manning and Ryan.
NFL Picks: Over 50.0
Ravens vs. Colts O/U 48.0
Courtesy of two lightweights – Jaguars and Titans – the Colts are first in the league in passing offense with 326.0 yards per game and an average of 34.0 points. Ravens have lit up the scoreboard since a shock opening defeat to the Cincinnati Bengals in week 1, hanging 87 points on their last three opponents, including a 38-10 win over the Panthers heralded for a stout defense. Everything about this game suggests a shootout between two elite quarterbacks: Joe Flacco, who's looking to prove he can recapture his Super Bowl winning form; and Andrew Luck, who's eager to gain his first win over a legitimate team and quarterback.
NFL Picks: Over 48.0
Bills +7.0 vs. Lions - O/U 44.0
Bills' offense is set for disruption. E.J. Manuel is benched. In his stead, Kyle Orton is set to start. That can't be good for the Bills O-line, especially against a Lions team that is 3-1 SU and ATS, tough to beat at home and boasts a stalwart defense. The Lions are solid on both sides of the ball, with an offense that ranks 7th in passing with 276.0 yards per game and defense that is second against the pass (186.5 allowed) and sixth against the rush (80.8). They are 1-3 over-under through four games, against some pretty good teams so far – including Green Bay Packers, Giants and Panthers.
NFL Picks: Under 44.0
Bears vs. Panthers O/U 45.5
Green Bay Packers exposed the Bears for the upstarts they were through the first few weeks of NFL betting while the Ravens exposed all the glaring weaknesses on the Panthers bench. These two sides, still searching for their respective identity, collide in week 5 NFL betting. Bears offense can light up but their defense is porous, not to mention Jay Cutler had a forgettable second half in Green Bay that shook his confidence. It remains to be seen whether that form spills forth. Panthers' offense really relies on Cam Newton, his mood from game-to-game. He can blow hot and cold from time to time (last week's lacklustre effort against the Ravens is case-and-point). This game could go either way, therefore, in our opinion. Consider Panthers have been averaging just 18.3 points per game and they have home advantage, while the Bears have been averaging 23.0 points per game, we feel this game could go just under 45.5.
NFL Picks: Under 45.5
Browns vs. Titans O/U 44.0
Odds are yet to be released on this game; too many uncertainties are floating about particularly where the Titans' centre is concerned – will Jake Locker start or will the Titans revert to the lesser desirable alternatives. Based on current form, it might not make much of a difference in the broad spectrum. Browns are coming off a bye and they take a 1-2 SU record behind some strong play to Tennessee. They are averaging almost 25 points per game (they've held Steelers, Ravens and Saints to just a field goal or less), which augurs well against a Titans side that has been leaking points at a frightening rate. The 44-point line seems too low so take the over on your NFL picks.
NFL Picks: Over 44.0
Texans vs. Cowboys O/U 46.0
While Cowboys boast the 20th pass offense, they have the highest-ranked rush offense in the league, which averages 165.0 yards per game. In four games, the Cowboys have accounted for 115 points, which is an average of 28.8 points. (In their last two, they broke the 30-point barrier). To counter, they have a weak defense that leaks almost as many points on average (21.5) as offense puts up over the course of four games. Both the Texans and Cowboys have gone 2-2 in over-under betting through four games. Texans are intrinsically defensive-minded, but both their road games have gone over this season – largely down to inconsistencies of Ryan Fitzpatrick. This game could go either way, but if DeMarco Murray continues to lead the way in rushing against a Texans side that is 24th against the run, the Cowboys could have another big day on the scoreboard this Sunday.
NFL Picks: Over 46.0
Steelers vs. Jaguars O/U 46.5
Jacksonville Jaguars are a shambles this season, outmatched in every aspect of the field. Sure, Blake Bortles impressed in his debut. However, he can only do so much alone and very little if defense continues to be a liability. Jaguars have leaked no less than 30-points per game and twice their generosity seemed to have no end, allowing over 40-points. When the vogue NFL pick is the 'over' on a Jaguars' game, this total-line does seem low.
NFL Picks: Over 46.5
Rams vs. Eagles O/U 47.5
It's not hard to see the Eagles hang 30 points in this game when they've scored 122 points through four games (which yields a 30.5 average). Through the first three games, they scored 101 points – only last week did offense sputter badly and the Eagles combined for just 21 points. As a result, they are down to 6th in passing offense with 280.5 yards per game. In every other aspect of the game, the Eagles rank low in the league – a messy defense ranked 23rd in the league against the pass and 26th against the rush. The Rams are in a mess period, with no viable centre as the quarterback drama heats up. They have a 9th ranked passing offense that accounts for 264.3 yards per game but converts for only an average of 18.7 points. Against an Eagles defense that struggles against the pass, the Rams could account for that amount, if not more.
NFL Picks: Over 47.5
Bucs vs. Saints O/U 48.5
It will take a huge defensive account by the Bucs in New Orleans to keep this total below the 48.5 line. The Bucs are better under Mike Glennon and after a big 27-24 upset over Pittsburgh last week. But they are playing their third straight road game in New Orleans, a right hostile place traditionally. Saints are mired in all sorts of trouble right now behind a 1-3 record. They are desperate for a big win before they go into a bye week. This has the whiff of a shootout, if not a blowout by the Saints.
NFL Picks: Over 48.5
Cardinals vs. Broncos O/U 49.0
Peyton Manning and the O-line aren't as lethal as last season while the rebuilt defense has been struggling. Cardinals, on the other hand, have a bit of quarterback dilemma, controversy brewing: If Carson Palmer is fit and ready to play on Sunday, do they go back to him (Palmer is 1-5 against Broncos lifetime), or stick with backup Drew Stanton who won the last two games to improve Cardinals to a 3-0 SU record? Dilemma. Dilemma. On another note, both the Broncos and Cardinals are coming off byes – this could be good for the Broncos as they work out their issues on both sides of the ball. Cardinals' defense is good enough to give Peyton Manning some headaches, but we know how good Manning is when he's at his best.
NFL Picks: Over 49.0 at Sports Interaction
Chiefs vs. 49ers O/U 44.5
Both the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers are 2-2 going into week 5 NFL betting. Odds makers have rolled out a rather high spread on this game of 6.5-points but countered with a rather low total-line of 44.5 considering the Chiefs' scored a total of 75 points in their last two games. Alex Smith is coming to face his old team and former backup QB Colin Kaepernick, who played himself into the starting job at Smith's expense. There's not a lot that Smith doesn't know about the Niners, particularly their stalwart defense, which is probably receiving all the respect with these NFL betting lines. At first glance, the under does look appealing, but with Alex Smith looking to make a point and Colin Kaepernick looking to validate the franchise's decision to stick with him, this could be a competitive shootout between two offenses that can light up when they are of the mind to.
NFL Picks: Over 44.5
Jets vs. Chargers O/U 43.5
Jets are trending negatively this season. They have lost three in a row. Offense looks messy despite boasting some attractive weapons largely down to poor quarterback play. On the bright side, defense is no slouch – first in the league opposing the rush and tenth against the pass. Chargers are hitting their stride with three straight wins and some solid play on both sides of the ball. They could find it tricky though to get much going against a Jets outfit that is desperate to stop the bleed.
NFL Picks: Under 43.5
Bengals vs. Patriots O/U 46.0
Cincinnati Bengals are unassuming on both sides of the ball, even-handed on the stats with a middle ranked offense and defense after three games. The 'under' enjoyed the edge when Bengals took on quality opposition and elite quarterbacks – Baltimore and Atlanta. Patriots laid an egg on Monday when they lost to the Chiefs. It was a debacle in which Brady spent way too much time grazing grass. That only means one thing: Tom Brady and the offense have a lot to prove, as does defense when they host the Bengals at home. It won't be easy against a tough Bengals defense but the Patriots do have the top (shocking) defense against the pass, holding opponents to just 185.5 yards per game.
NFL Picks: Under 46.0
Seahawks vs. Redskins O/U 45.5
Seattle Seahawks are still the best in the league, with the best defense in the minds of many NFL bettors. Questions were raised about Washington in their Thursday defeat to the Giants; namely, how good is Kirk Cousins really. It's too soon to tell whether that is going to be the beginning of a trend or if it was a one-off, a bad day. A date with the stingy Seahawk defense and one of the best quarterbacks this side of the last decade will determine one way or another.
NFL Picks: Under 45.5

Bi3+/M2+ Oxyphosphate: A Continuous Series of Polycationic Species from the 1D Single Chain to the 2D Planes. Part 1: From HREM Images to Crystal-Structure Deduction
2006-08-21T00:00:00Z (GMT) by
This work deals with the crystal-structure deduction of new structural types of Bi3+−M2+ oxyphosphates (M is a transition element) from HREM images. Previous studies showed the unequivocal attribution of particular HREM contrasts to the corresponding Bi/M/O-based polycationic species in similar materials. On this basis, the examination of isolated crystallites of polyphased samples led to new HREM contrasts assigned to new polycationic species in three new structural types. This helped us to solve one crystal structure, and the two other forms have been deduced through HREM image decoding. It helped to model the investigated materials from the structural point of view as well as the chemical one. The three assumed crystal structures are formed by polycationic ribbons, n tetrahedra wide, surrounded by PO4 groups, as already encountered in these series of oxyphosphates. However, here we deal with the original n= 4−6 cases, whereas, up to this work, only the n= 1−3 ribbons have been reported. The greater size of ribbons is associated with particular structural modifications responsible for complex HREM contrasts. The validity of the proposed models is verified in Part 2 of this work.

BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - Naomi Collier, a graduate student at LSU, has lost more than 135 pounds. Here's her story.
"I'm young, I still have time to lose it " That was always my reply whenever I was asked about my weight. My weight loss journey has not been an overnight success story. It has taken alot of sweat, tears and complaining to get to where I am today. I have been big all my life and overcoming stereotypes and society was my claim to fame. I had convinced myself that I loved the way I looked, and that it was my mission to make everyone else love it too. So for years I embraced my size and the thought of losing weight seldom crossed my mind.
My "Come to Fitness" moment happened about two years ago. My best friend got a job as a lifeguard at the YMCA and she suggested I come and hang out sometimes. I began taking classes like Kick Boxing, Boot Camp and Water Aerobics and by the end of the summer I had lost about 23 pounds. After the summer ended my friend returned to school and I discontinued my visits to the gym. In the fall of 2011, I went to the doctor for my annual blood test and I received some unsettling news. My good cholesterol was low and my bad cholesterol was too high. My results indicated that without losing weight I was at risk for heart disease. My doctor said "this is an easy fix. You just have to increase your exercising five times a week and eliminate all fatty foods from your diet." Well after a good laugh, reality set in and I began to worry.
I was a full-time student, worked part time and five days a week just did not seem possible. So I approached the executive director of the Southside YMCA and expressed my concerns and he recommended that I get a personal trainer, someone who could motivate me and to keep me accountable. He assigned Gina Stonich who at first glance looks sweet and easy going, but little did I know she would be a "gladiator in sweats". She has been the motivation I needed to get where I am today. Anytime I wanted to quit she encouraged me to keep going. She let me know that excuses were not an option and failure would not be tolerated. I am 135 pounds lighter because of hard work, dedication and a great support system. The YMCA has saved my life and I will forever be grateful. The struggle is real, but so worth it. Stay tuned. this is just the beginning.

City of CoronaHome Menu
Evacuations Lifted for Majority of Homes in Canyon Fire Burn Scar Area
For Immediate Release
January 10, 2018
CORONA, CA– The National Weather Service has released all flash flood warnings and watches in our area. City resources have been working to assess the damages to dwellings, roadways, utilities, and other infrastructure. Clean-up efforts are underway in the affected neighborhoods.
The following neighborhoods have been impacted by mudflows and remain closed and under mandatory evacuation: San Ramon Drive & San Alvarado Circle. Road closures will remain in place for these areas.
The American Red Cross will be closing the evacuation shelter today. Residents of these affected streets can call 951-817-5800 if they are in need of temporary shelter. Temporary boarding for pets will remain available at the Corona Animal Shelter located at 1330 Magnolia Ave., Corona.
The following neighborhoods have been deemed clear of hazards, and all evacuations and road closures have been lifted in these areas: Hidden Hills Way, Bulrush Circle, Elderberry Circle, Misty Ridge Lane, Wilderness Drive & Wilderness Circle, Canyon Crest Drive & Canyon Crest Circle, Diamond View Street, San Ponte Road, San Viscaya Circle, San Sebastian Circle, Oakridge Drive, San Almada Road.
The City of Corona has efforts underway to remove the mud from the roadways as well as from all of the pre-storm preparation areas such as debris basins, culverts, and other control methods, to prepare them for the next winter storm. These efforts will occur for several days.
It is important to remember that this, being the first winter storm, is not an indication of the ability of the Canyon Fire burn area to sustain itself in future storm events. The hillsides will remain more susceptible than normal to mudflow and flash flooding for several seasons.
Residents are reminded to use due diligence in preparing their properties for future rainstorms. Sand bags will remain available at Fire Station #5, 1200 Canyon Crest Drive, for residents of the Sierra Del Oro neighborhood, and will be placed at Santana Park as needed for residents Citywide.
The Corona Public Information Hotline will be available to answer questions at 951-817-5800 or residents can check our website, CoronaCA.gov/StormWatch and the city's social media sites for the latest information.

Nah there's plenty worse.
Hitchens' thought has too many flaws to mention, but I can accept that he's intelligent, entertaining and compassionate even though I disagree with pretty much everything he says (aside from on Western military intervention, he's pretty good on that).
His recent work of chasing Owen Jones around on twitter regarding him supposedly disproving the aforementioned's poor article on comprehensive vs. grammar schools has been incredibly amusing also.
HIs problem is he knows nothing about the science behind addiction
Rather like James Delingpole and his climate change denial, Hitchens' objections to drugs are political and philosophical
Plus his rampant refusal to accept "evidence" as proof of anything: not really surprising given his devout christian faith
It's really lazy of the BBC also to keep on getting him in to talk about it. Doesn't really generate decent debate.
Although addiction's a bit of an anomaly in the Hitchens canon. Usually he's fairly robust in trying to posit facts over conjecture (well, as much as any other 'opinions' columnist I suppose), but on drugs and addiction he just goes rabid Old Testament MENTAL about it. Very strange. Kind of a bit like Littlejohn on homosexuals...
Addiction - not a thing
hitch_raceMatt_was_taken, Parsefone, badmanreturns, japes, justanothersheeldz, and TheWza this'd this
Chandler was just like :-O
when hitchens compared treatment of addiciton to how homosexuality was treated back in the day. chandler or the baroness didnt really get a word in
I disagree with almost everything Peter Hitchens says.
But I don't dislike him. I think I sort of respect how much of a consistent moral code the guy has. Everything he says makes perfect sense within the confines of his own Victorian worldview.Gringo this'd this

"I have met a number of people that have had a stroke. Each one has had different consequences- some severe and some with hardly any visible effects. Are there warning signs and can you discuss the different effects strokes have on individuals?" – G.L. of Reedley
The medical terminology for a stroke is a cerebral vascular accident (CVA). A CVA is caused by the blockage of blood flow by a clot or a rupture of an artery in the brain. This can result in sudden death of brain cells due to lack of oxygen. Strokes can create all sorts of disabilities. Depending on where in the brain the stroke happened you can have trouble speaking, the extremities of one side of your body could be limited or not work at all. Reasoning skills could be hindered, eye sight may be changed, or the muscles for swallowing could be weakened. The list of possible disabilities goes on and on. Damage from a stroke can lead to death. Statistics show strokes are rated 3rd in the leading causes of death.
Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a small stroke, sometimes referred to as a warning stroke. These strokes have the same symptoms as a (CVA) stroke but there is no lasting damage. The symptoms appear for a short time and then recede and your body goes back to normal.
Each year hundreds of thousands of people have strokes (CVA or TIAs). Both of these types of strokes need immediate attention at a medical facility. There is no way to tell if you are having a TIA or the more damaging CVA. Whether or not you recover from the stroke depends on getting to the hospital quickly. There are clot busting medications now that can eliminate or reduce the damage done by a blood clot in the in brain. The blood clot busting medication can reduce long-term effects if it is administered within three hours of the start of the symptoms.
It is important that everyone recognizes the symptoms of any type of stroke:
- Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body.
- Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding
- Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
- Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
- Sudden, severe headache with no known cause.
If you or someone you are with has one or more of these signs, don't delay to call 9-1-1. It is best to get an ambulance to the scene rather than take the person to the hospital yourself. The ambulance is equipped with emergency equipment. It is good to check the time when the symptoms started. There is a very small window of time to get the necessary medication to circumvent the effects of the stroke. The brain cells start dying quickly when they are deprived of oxygen.
It is difficult to treat a stroke if there has been a delay in getting to the hospital. Reasons for the delay can be denial "I have got this little problem. If I ignore it I am sure it will go away." Maybe there is nobody around when the stroke happens. If you live alone or are alone for extended periods of time I encourage you to form a buddy system to check up on each other or get something like Lifeline so you have a way to call for help. Fortunately on a retirement campus like Sierra View Homes neighbors look out for each other and are more aware of symptoms to be alerted for. Another reason for the delay is lack of understanding how important it is to get the victim of the stroke to the hospital quickly. Not calling an ambulance can delay treatment.
Not everybody has full recovery from a stroke. Some strokes are caused by bleeding in the brain. Clot busters do not work on this type of stroke. Some areas of the brain when deprived of oxygen just do not come back to full function.
Rehabilitation therapy for the stroke usually follows a stay in the hospital. Therapists try to reprogram the effected area. The first year following the stroke is the period when it is possible to make the most progress toward prior level of function. Once the first year anniversary is passed progress becomes extremely limited. Sierra View Homes rehab center has had a lot of success in improving residents function in both the outpatient and inpatient programs.
The risk factors for having a stroke are high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, tobacco abuse, diabetes and aging. Also, heart rhythm disturbances like atrial fibrillation and heart disease can cause strokes. Specialists are studying if there can be an inherited predisposition to strokes.
Strokes can be devastating and change the quality of your life. It is important that you looks at the risks factors, makes adjustments in life style to reduce the risk factors and heed the warning signs if they appear. Get to a medical center quickly if you suspect a stroke. Remember the three hour window. If you live alone make sure you have a system to get help in an emergency. Be alert and aware that someone around you could be in trouble so I encourage you to know the warning signs and assist as needed.

Ascension Center – Maui, Hawaii
The Ascension Center's primary location is Maui, Hawaii. The islands of Hawaii are sacred and the Ascension Center, a most sacred center, embodies sacred, spiritual energy, lies on sacred land at the foothills of the West Maui Mountains on the island of Maui.
Maui is the heart chakra of the Earth. The Center is at the gateway to the Halls of Amenti, an inter-dimensional portal to the 4th, 5th & 6th dimensions and even higher. Follow through and you reach Source itself.
The land's rich, verdant, green, lush with ancient fruit trees that tower over smaller vegetation surrounding the periphery of the land. A stream and small waterfalls weave through the center. Beautiful flowers and vegetation's everywhere. It's a virtual Garden of Eden.
We seek donations to transform and build a beautiful temple, a healing retreat center, educational center, conscious community and eco farm here. Designers, like Jack, have seen it in their mind's eyes and captured the images of the actual buildings we hope to build here on this sacred land, at the foothills of an ancient volcano, at the portal to higher dimensions, a true center of ascension, the Ascension Center.
The center will welcome all from all corners of this world (and possibly others) as our Galactic Family rediscovers one another.
If you feel moved to do so you may donate to our building and land fund. We hope to purchase the surrounding lands, expand and bring all the mountain into conservation. This is the rainforest. Our vision is to keep most of it untouched by human hands but open for exploration with sensitive guides that help all keep the rainforest pure.
Now that's a huge task for humanity's got its hands into everything!
But it can be done by raising consciousness. Your energy, your donations can make that happen.
Come to the Center. Take classes, volunteer, work the land, donate time, energy, money, products, services, however you can.
Here at the Center we begin the healing process for humanity. Reach one, teach one. Learn, heal, grow, evolve, become conscious and aware of your part in the totality of existence.
Reach out to others, give them a hand. The second phase of your own healing process is to begin facilitating the healing process with others.
We are a very wounded society. The design and social structure of this world must change to one that respects life and consciousness. Otherwise, this species will not survive. However, the tide has changed. We are doing it, together.
Individuals awaken at different times. Be patient, kind, loving for those who're just beginning down the path.
Your love nurtures them and allows the awakening process to accelerate. We're now in the Quickening since crossing over the line on 12/21/12. No, it was not a bang, but a whisper. We needed it that way for we, the human species, humanity is/are quite fragile right now.
And we're getting it. Our eyes are opening. Daily, more downloads come in from the cosmos. Contact has begun from beings of higher realms and other dimensions.
The quarantine has been lifted.. at last! Hang on to your hats. It's begun! Be prepared to accelerate the process, within self, between you and others, with your friends, family, loved ones, community, country, world!
We've passed through the darkest hour. Armageddon's been experienced hypothetically and averted. No need to act it out and actually experience it. We get it. We've done it in fiction, in our minds, for real (on a smaller scale) over and over and over again. No need to do the big bang. So it's a done deal. Boring, stupid, complete… NEXT!
Peace is upon us. Join the peace paradigm. Do it for yourself, your family and loved ones, friends, community, country, world.
Authentic peace, peace that respects consciousness and all life's upon us. Internalize it. Own it. Make it yours. Grok it, get it. Viola! Once within, you simply project it out and round about to all. Complete!
Much Love, Blessings, Warmest Aloha. Realize, you are love incarnate. Remember the love and all's right with the world and all beings.
What is Ascension? From http://www.sandrawalter.com/what-is-ascension/
Ascension is a conscious choice to engage in Evolution.
Ascension is not about leaving the planet, getting rescued by off-world brethren or flying up into heaven. It is not about watching the Shift unfold online, or waiting for the external world to provide evidence of inner change. Ascension is a conscious choice to engage in evolution.
When consciously activated, the Ascension process affects every aspect, level and layer of a person's beingness. The physical, emotional, mental, egoic and spiritual structures undergo acute transformation, evolving to meet the demands of a higher level of consciousness.
The Awakening Phenomenon is one of the more impressive effects of the Shift. Amidst the external changes – political, social, financial, spiritual, solar and planetary – people encounter profound internal change due to the ascending frequencies. This heightened awareness returns wisdom, knowledge and a connection to divine aspects of the Self which had been dormant for thousands of years.
Planetary Ascension is a change in frequency
Dimensions are based on vibration. Each dimension has a range of frequencies which create the reality or experience within that dimension. Anything living on a planet must resonate with the vibrational level of that planet (or higher) or it cannot exist in that reality. As the frequency of the Earth changes, everything on her surface is affected by this increase in frequency.
Ascension Guidance for activation, integration and acceleration
Integration is vital to achieving a permanent state of higher consciousness. In the Ascension process, it is essential to clear and retrain the lower emotional, egoic and mental constructs which block higher states of consciousness. This frees the true Self to do what it came here to do; awaken and embody a unique expression of Source.
Reliance on external modalities, channels and old paradigm New Age methods has limited the awakening process for quite a few people. Many are now ready to take on the task of Self-empowerment, REactivate their Divine HUman state and achieve Crystalline consciousness.
Incredible possibilities for Earth and HUmanity
The Shift, jump time, evolutionary upgrades in consciousness and the ascension process have been discussed for years in spiritual circles, and for millennia in ancient cultures. Waves of unique cosmic energy have been surging through our galaxy for decades, and the window of amplification has arrived.
It isn't the end of the world. It is the beginning of a new paradigm, and big change is typically rough. The Shift is a shift in consciousness; a dramatic change in the parameters by which we experience reality. The physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and dimensional changes which are occurring here have never been experienced before. It is a fantastic time to be here and experience evolution first-hand.
How do I ascend? Won't it happen to me anyway?
Each dimension has a range of frequencies which create the structure for experiencing a certain kind of reality. Third dimensional reality is the lowest density (frequency) which a human expression of consciousness may experience. There are many side effects of the old 3D reality, including the illusion of linear time, the inability to perceive higher dimensions, and spiritual amnesia where the memory of past lives, experiences in other dimensions, and connection to the rest of the Universe is forgotten. All of that is changing during the Shift. This is why the phenomenon of awakening is so widespread; we are waking up from the amnesia of 3D and reconnecting with higher dimensional consciousness.
Apocalypse and the planet
Anything which desires to experience life on a planet must resonate with the vibrational level of that planet in order to exist within the parameters of that reality. The frequency of the Earth has been increasing, and continues to rise, which means everything in, on and around her surface is affected. Higher frequency always overpowers the lower vibrations.
As the parameters for 4D reality dissolve, the planet supports the experience of a higher dimension. This change in dimensional structure is becoming very apparent to the awakened. Apocalypse means lifting of the veil – the unveiling of higher dimensions which were once hidden by the density of 3D reality.
The HUman Ascension process
HUmans are unique; our DNA hold the codes for all life in this Universe, an expression of Creator consciousness embodied (Creator-in-carnate) in HUman (God-man) expression. Your primary responsibility in this game of amnesia is to wake up and remember who you are as a divine HUman. The Ascension process is the transformation of the physical body, light body and the consciousness which animates it, in order to hold a higher vibrational state. Your higher self is merging with your lower dimensional self after a very long separation in the 3D experience.
In order for your body to be capable of holding that higher frequency, it must transform into a crystalline-based cellular structure. DNA which has been dormant must be activated. Our consciousness must be expanded beyond the boundaries of habitual 3D/4D existence. It is physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually challenging, and it is quite amazing. Medical impossibilities are popping up all over the globe. Not everyone has chosen to awaken in this lifetime, nor do they have to awaken. There are many factors involved in experiencing the Ascension process, and we are all here to play out the Shift in our own way.
The changes will affect your lifestream
Severe weather and climate change are imminent due to the drastic reduction of the magnetosphere and magnetic shifts in the Earth itself. Global warming is simply an affect of the collapse of the astral planes of consciousness as we go through the Shift. There is less protection between us and the Sun, and that is fine.
Mother Earth is a very patient conscious entity with a long and diverse history. This window of evolution coincides with many galactic alignments, some of which only occur in million and billion year cycles. Galactic cycles are very long, and the experiences of other off-world races, systems and galaxies depend upon the raising of Earth's frequency. It's a bit like being the weakest link – other games cannot be played until this density is upgraded.
Earth is constantly balancing magnetics as 3D dissolves from the collective reality. The doom timeline – a complete destruction of everything on her surface – has been eliminated thanks to the amount of awakened consciousness on the planet. She is heavily influenced by the collective consciousness, and millions have been connecting with her to smooth the transition during the Shift.
It is a process which requires participation.
The dimensional split between a 3D/4D version of Earth and an ascending 5D version (the New Earth) began in August of 2011. Our planet ascended to 5D on December 12, 2012. This means a platform for the new experience of the return to the true HUman genome is provided. Kindwhile, HUmanity is able to merge with their 5D and above aspects, while the veils are down, and bring Heaven (5D+) to Earth, merging these realities. Lower vibrational systems, programs, entities and belief systems dissolve in the New Light – sometimes with ease, sometimes with resistance. Eventually, the lower 4D expression of Earth will drop out of existence.
We now have a holographic platform for a 4D experience as the collective awakens. Many are choosing to fully embody a 5D consciousness of Unconditional Love right here in this reality, as an act of Divine service to raise the collective vibration into peace, harmony and compassion. Some are choosing to embody a Christed Consciousness, which enables a conscious connection to 5D – 12D expressions of the Self. We do not know how long the 4D platform will be available. Whether it is 2 years or 200 years does not matter, the inevitable Shift is well underway.
Evolution is evolution; the entire planet and all of her residents are experiencing the Shift, regardless of their awareness of it. Ascension is a conscious process which requires a choice to engage with the unknown, in order to experience something brand new. It is a remarkable, challenging and rewarding process which frees the Self from perceived limitations.
Open up to all that you truly are, beloved.

I've been a bit lax in blogging because eventually my blogs will link from my workplace homepage, www.boiseweekly.com. I was going to wait until I heard word from on high that this is now an official process. However, my blogging skills were getting a bit rusty and e-mails to friends, family and acquaintances were becoming quite verbose without an outlet in which to express myself.
I spent three nights last week as a judge at a local battle of the bands: Boise Records Battle of the Bands to be precise. It was billed as "3 Nights, 3 Judges, 3 Winners." Boise Records, a local home-based recording company, sponsored the event, offering 20 hours of recording time to each night's winner in the categories of punk, metal and indie. Five bands took the stage each night, and unlike other band battles I have judged, there were no obvious winners because there were no obvious losers. In battles past, there was usually at least one or two bands easily eliminated from the running. Not the case with these bands. Every one of the them brought their A-games and put on a great show. A Thousand Effigies won punk night, though BR owner Lloyd Parrott gave Killing For Peace a second place prize of 10 hours recording time; Heibarger took the honors on metal night; and Malachi won indie night, with Parrott giving Uncle Bud 10 hours as well. I had a great time; loved seeing some bands again, some for the first time; totally dug getting to know the BR people (Lloyd, Taylor, Ryan and Marci); and being totally immersed in local music for a few days.
On Friday, working on roughly 20 hours of sleep for the week, my body rebelled and by 5 p.m. Friday I was in bed with the worst head cold of my life. I still don't feel great and am beginning to wonder if hard living isn't better left to younger people. On this I shall ponder.
The Lefsetz Letter (an awesome blog; check it out at www.lefsetz.com) posted this note from Shorefire Media: "'Radio Nowhere,' the first single from Bruce Springsteen's upcoming album 'Magic,' will be available exclusively and free on the iTunes Store (www.itunes.com) for one week starting today. The iTunes album pre-order for 'Magic' also begins today and includes the free download of the "Radio Nowhere" single plus the song's video and an exclusive digital booklet."
If you dig the boss, this is very cool.

Yahoo settles with Icahn to avoid proxy fightBy Jose Vilches
The battle between activist investor Carl Icahn and Yahoo took an unexpected turn today after the two cut a deal that would help prevent a proxy takeover of the search engine company's board of directors. Icahn had promised to oust Yahoo chief Jerry Yang and board chairman Roy Bostock if his slate of board candidates were elected at the annual shareholder meeting next week.
Under the agreement, however, the Yahoo board will be expanded to 11 members and Icahn himself will be nominated to the board along with two of his previous choices. Icahn said he was pleased with the "good outcome," but notes that a complete or search-only buyout by Microsoft should still be "given full consideration."
With this, Icahn may have the power to finally push for a deal with Microsoft – which Yahoo has repeatedly rejected since February. The Redmond software giant has yet to comment on the matter though it has previously said it wouldn't pursue any further deals with Yahoo's existing board. We'll have to wait and see where this goes, but it looks like the battle for Yahoo is still far from over.

Hello, Is It Me You're Looking For?
I never thought I'd see the day where I would love body lotion. But here I am, declaring my love for one. I hated body lotions, the thought of slathering my skin with a thick lotion and feeling like I've been dumped in a vat of cream still makes me shudder. But everyone seemed to rave about this "Dream Cream" from Lush. So I bought a smaller size to see what all the hype was about. And I have never looked back.
This body lotion has been one of favourite discoveries. What I love most about this is how quickly it sinks into the skin. Gone are the days of standing in star jump position and waddling around, waiting for the lotion to sink in. I love applying this straight after the shower and I'm still a bit damp, I find it sinks in better that way. And the smell is nice, not overpowering but gives you a fresh scent. Also, love the Lionel Richie song lyric on the tub, that song is my jam.
Have you tried this yet?

Who Stole Democracy in America?
Political analyst Eduard Lozansky talks about the depth of the US domestic political crises.
In the U.S., there is a heated discussion on whether the country is democratic or not. Currently, there are two versions. The first one was precisely defined by the respected magazine Foreign Affairs. According to it, the fact that Trump is praising dictators, his calls for violence even up to the point of requesting that his opponents be put under arrest and also his comparing the media to enemies of the state — all this shows that America tends more and more to be authoritarian.
The second version is based on the idea that "American democracy was stolen by Russia," meaning Russia achieved Trump's victory over Clinton. Supporters of both theories are positive that there is a conspiracy between Trump and Putin and this is why Trump should be impeached and Putin should be classified as the main U.S. enemy.
One can laugh and speak ironically about the insanity that is covering a sufficiently wide circle of American politicians and the media, but such irresponsible and dangerous rhetoric can lead to quite bitter results.
It's clear that it is mostly those who have not yet accepted Trump's victory who are the ones who have this type of insane opinion. Besides Hillary Clinton and her active supporters, among them there are also people for whom the president's ideas about domestic and foreign policy are absolutely unacceptable.
As for democracy then, in the U.S., thank God, it still exists. But if Trump's enemies succeed in bringing him down or not allowing the implementation of reforms promised by him during his election campaign, then we will definitely be able to talk about a serious democratic crisis.
Trump raised doubts about one of the main aspects of U.S. foreign policy — the spread of American democracy around the world. His promises to review the necessity of the democratic "crusade" have brought him intense opposition from the establishment since huge ideological and financial resources are involved in this process.
Donald Trump talked openly about tragic results from the policies of his predecessors, specifically about the colossal sacrifices and destruction in the Middle East, Afghanistan, Yemen, Ukraine and other countries. Millions of dead and wounded, including thousands of Americans; endless flows of refugees; plus trillions in taxpayer expense.
In this regard we should note that British people can certainly "thank" Obama, Clinton and other leaders of NATO countries for the recent terrorist act in Manchester because, thinking of the Arab Spring, they are the ones who brought down the Libyan dictator Gadhafi without realizing the consequences.
Although we are talking about the "stealing" of American democracy by Russians, in Moscow no one ever concealed the fact that they preferred Trump over Clinton, and in this regard they were in solidarity with 63 million U.S. citizens. Moreover, according to all the unbiased analysts and experts, Russia clearly could not have an impact on the result of the elections. But on the other hand, the real interference of the U.S. in elections in other countries is a stated fact.
In any case, there is no proof of Russia's interference in the election process via cyberspace, and that's why hardly anything will be found at all. As John McAfee, one of the most famous experts in the field of cyber security, said "if it looks like the Russians did it, then I can guarantee you it was not the Russians." Also, according to the opinion of a lot of professionals, including former employees of the U.S. intelligence community, the correspondence of members of Clinton's campaign headquarters was not hacked by hackers, but was sent to WikiLeaks by members of her team. Moreover, no one has yet questioned the contents of this correspondence, which is confirmation of collusion between the Democratic National Committee and Clinton's headquarters against her main rival, Bernie Sanders.
Even if we assume that the Russians are the ones who hacked the server, then the only thing that they could steal would be the proof of this collusion. So democracy was stolen by leaders of the Democratic Party but, unfortunately, for some reason the investigation into this issue has not yet begun.
Thus, the answer to the question that was asked in the title of this article mostly depends on how the events in this post-election American drama will develop, and the results of that are unpredictable. However, now we can say with confidence that a deepening of the already emerging crisis for the U.S. establishment is ensured.

A common financial asset, linked in with what we're covering in lectures this week, is a mortgage. A mortgage is a loan to buy a house with, where the collateral for the loan is the actual house itself - i.e. if you fail to pay off the loan and default, the institution that gave you the loan takes possession of the house.
It's a very illiquid asset in the sense it takes a long time to mature - most mortgages are 25 years in length, hence it will be 25 years before you see that money again, if you give somebody a mortgage.
Anyhow, many fewer have been granted in January compared to December, according to the BBC. This was partly to do with all that snow hampering economic activity (not just schools closing...), but also because of tax incentives imposed by the government. In January, stamp duty was reimposed on house purchases. Stamp duty is a tax the government collects on house sales. So in December people rushed through house purchases in order to avoid paying stamp duty, which can be pretty hefty.
Is this bad news for the housing market? And moreover is it bad news for the economy? Probably not, is the suggestion in the article, at least for the former - since the drop was only related to some very temporary factors that won't persist (tax changes and weather - we hope!), hence it's likely the market will pick up again.
Is that a good thing for the economy? Given, as we found out early in term, the UK is a nation of estate agents, perhaps! But for those of us hoping one day to buy a house, slightly less encouraging if it means house prices start rising again...

Nigella and her husband, art collector Saatchi, are going to divorce. Not because he behaved in an unacceptable manner. (He grabbed Nigella by the throat while they were in a restaurant in London.) But because Nigella hasn't defended him when the photo's were published, and he was branded an abuser of women.It must feel for Nigella, that she is being abused again by Saatchi. A very sordid affair indeed. What do we believe? How could it have come to this?Saatchi commented: "I am sorry to announce that Nigella Lawson, and I are getting divorced. I feel that I have clearly been a disappointment to Nigella during the last year or so, and I am disappointed that she was advised to make no public comment to explain that I abhor violence of any kind against women, and have never abused her physically in any way." According to sources, Saatchi and Lawson haven't spoken to each other since the incident.
The soon to be ex-husband of Nigella continued: "This is heartbreaking for both of us as our love was very deep, but in the last year we have become estranged and drifted apart… The row photographed at Scott's restaurant could equally have been Nigella grasping my neck to hold my attention – as indeed she has done in the past." We have to take his word for it because Nigella isn't speaking to the press. It seems like Lawson is being abused again by Saatchi, this time not physically, but emotionally.
When Saatchi was asked about his actions during the row, he had very different views on what happened, than the photos indicated:
- He didn't attack Nigella by sticking his finger in her nostril during the argument, but was merely wiping her nose.
- The whole incident was just a "playful tiff", claiming that he had held her neck repeatedly to "emphasise my point" while the couple discussed their children.
- He did go to the police station, not because he was remorseful, and knew what he had done, but because, he didn't want this "hanging over all of us for months".
Nigella, 53, moved out of their shared home in Chelsea, West London, a week after the incident, and is temporarily staying in a rented apartment in an exclusive private members' club in Mayfair. She hasn't worn her wedding ring since, however, and she refuses to talk about what happened. Nigella has also moved all of her belongings out of their shared house, and has been seen flat-hunting.
Most people however are very upset about their collective behaviour, but specifically with Nigella's. Lawson is a role model, and should stand up for herself. She also should have tried to avoid the situation that Saatchi was allowed to file for divorce first, when clearly she has everything on her side to divorce him, and make a statement for women everywhere. The behaviour of Saatchi should not go unpunished, and he shouldn't have made statements that make him look innocent. (Another sore point is that he could tell his side, but we haven't heard from Nigella herself.)
What do you think? Is Lawson being abused again by Saatchi, but this time emotionally? Does Nigella have an ulterior motive for not speaking out, and telling her side of the story? Do you think she should have filed for divorce first? Or do you think that for Nigella it's simply a good thing that divorce is looming? Let us know in the comments.

Senate panel recommendation to stop 3G, 4G auction rejected by govt
ISLAMABAD: The government on Thursday turned down the recommendation of a panel of the Upper House of Parliament for stopping the auction of multi-billion dollars 3G and 4G technologies till hiring of third member of the PTA and completion of the Authority.
After a heated debate over this issue during the meeting, the Chairman of Senate Standing Committee on Information Technology, Muhammad Idrees Khan Safi, in his ruling, recommended to the government to stop the process of auction of 3G and 4G till completion of the PTA and constituted a three member sub-committee for presenting its report after listening to the viewpoint of the government as well as Senators belonging to opposition benches.
However, in an abrupt manner, the Minister of State for IT, Anusha Rehman, told the meeting that the government was not bound to implement the ruling of the chairman of the committee. "As a committee, you are empowered to send your recommendation to the Senate, but the government will not implement your rulings in this regard," she made it clear.
When the chairman announced his ruling over stopping the spectrum auction, the minister for IT had left the room just few minutes before this announcement. The IT secretary hurriedly sent out officials of the ministry and Anusha Rehman came back into the Committee Room No 1 of the Parliament House.
During the meeting, the senators, belonging to opposition benches, especially Senator Faisal Raza Abidi, raised different points and said that he opposed this transaction during the PPP led regime and would not allow sale of such an important asset in haste.
At one point of time, Senator Faisal Raza Abidi exchanged hot words with PPP Senator Rehman Malik and stood up from his seat and asked the former PPP minister to walk out from the meeting if he desired so, but he would not remain silent on this issue.
"First of all, the government will have to complete PTA by hiring its third member before auction of 3G and 4G," he said and referred to a verdict of the Lahore High Court which barred the government not to hire any bureaucrat as member of the PTA.
But the government took the stand that the Supreme Court in one of its suo moto case had given observation for giving additional charge of Law secretary as member of the PTA. IT Secretary Akhalque Tarar told the committee that the commission established by the government decided to re-advertise the slot of third member of the PTA because only two applications were received for this position. Now renowned firm has been hired for the process of short listing of application and the hiring of third member into the PTA will be completed, he added.
This whole debate erupted during the proceedings of Senate Panel when the PTA Chairman, Dr Ismail Shah, was going to start his presentation on 3G and 4G spectrum auctions.Senator Raza Abidi asked the PTA chairman to inform the committee about the members of the Authority. The PTA chairman replied that there were two members, including him and another one, had gone abroad for attending a workshop while acting charge of third member was lying with the Law secretary.
The senators agitated forcefully on this point by arguing that the PTA was incomplete and the government could not accomplish auction of 3G and 4G spectrums.At the start of the meeting, the senators protested over receiving official documents with undue delays. The IT Ministry was of the view the whole team was busy for successful completion of upcoming transaction which was due on April 23, 2014, and they had requested the committee to hold this meeting after completion of this transaction.
On this issue, official communications exchanged between the Ministry of IT and Senate Panel and finally it was decided that the Ministry will brief the committee on 3G and 4G auctions.In the meeting, the minister of state for IT agreed to a proposal given by Senator Rehman Malik of the PPP for de-notifying the Auction Supervisory Committee, led by Finance Minister Ishaq Dar. The Minister for IT said that the Supervisory Committee had accomplished its work by preparing policy in consultation with the stakeholders and the prime minister would be asked to de-notify it. Now, it will be responsibility of the PTA to accomplish transaction of 3G and 4G in transparent manner.

Five cold water training days done so far, it is going ok, even if the cold is a real mental challenge, see below.
The full week was as follows:
Sunday 22: 4h15m 17.5 C Maas & Lithse Ham
Monday 23: 2h15m 17.5 C Maas
Tuesday 24: 4h30m 17.5 C Maas & Lithse Ham
Wednesday 25: 2h 18 C Dode Maasarm
Thursday 26: 2h 15 C IJsselmeer (Medemblik)
Today is a day off, which is nice!.
The toughest was yesterday: 2 hours in app. 15 degrees Celsius in the IJsselmeer, with a cold hard wind and very choppy water. Good fun though, a real battle with the elements. I have figured out the difference between 17 and 15 degrees: in the latter case hands and feet will remain cold throughout the swim, whereas in 17 degrees they will warm up after appr. 15 minutes, only to turn cold again after 1.5-2 hours.
The hardest part is not physical, but mental: I can do the long swims without any problem as far as the distance is concerned, but the cold water plays nasty games with one's mind. The cold is always there, and doesn't leave you for a moment. This was clear on Wednesday when I intended to do a 6-hour swim but got out after 2 hours. I should have prepared better: I went into the water as if this was just another training, but these cold long swims take mental preparedness. I have now planned a 6-hour swim on Sunday with coach (and also aspiring Channel swimmer) Marcel van der Togt. Hopefully being in the water together will make it somewhat easier to stay in and bear the cold.

A Year Later
Despite what might be considered an overall slump in enthusiast PC building due to record low GPU availability and sky-high memory prices, 2017 was one of the most exciting and competitive years in recent history when it comes to CPU innovation. On the desktop side alone, we saw the launch of AMD's new Zen CPU architecture with the Ryzen 1000 series of parts starting last March; we also saw new HEDT platforms from both Intel and AMD, and Intel's first 6-core mainstream CPUs.
Although the timeline doesn't quite work out for Ryzen to have affected the engineering-side of Intel's decision to release a 6-core desktop processor, it's evident AMD's pressure changed Intel's pricing and release schedule.
With little desktop competition, it's likely that the i7-8700K would have been a more expensive part, and released later. It's likely that Coffee Lake would have seen a full stack product launch in early 2018, as opposed to the staggered launch we experienced where only one compatible chipset and a subset of CPUs were available for months.
AMD and Ryzen have put significant pressure on Intel to remain competitive, which is good for the industry as a whole.
We're now at just over a year since AMD's first Ryzen processor releases, and looking at the first appearance of the codename Pinnacle Ridge CPUs. Launching today are the Ryzen 7 2700X and 2700, and the Ryzen 5 2600x and 2600 processors. Can AMD keep moving the needle forward in the CPU space? Let's take a look.
Continuing reading our review of the AMD Ryzen 2700X and 2600X processors!
