A Bay Area Buying Calculator
Burbed readers are a fascinating bunch. One of them has put together some Bay Area-specific buying calculators, and wants you, the Burbed readership, to have a look. Since you're all so hard to please and think everything out there sucks, this is your opportunity to ask the author to make it suck less.
Please welcome Burbed reader PKamp3 and the Don't Quit Your Day Job blog, introducing lots of boring math, charts, and stats. Some of you should just go back to sleep, while others should start a second pot of coffee and get ready to dig on in.
Here's an article I wrote with 2 RBA calculators attached. I wrote it kind of in a Burbed mindframe: "who the hell can afford RBA prices"?
Here's a preview:
2362 LAURA Ln, Mountain View, CA 94043
I can tell you before you click the link… using my default assumptions:(20% DP, 4.5% Interest, 30 Year Mortgage, 31% front end DTI. You can change everything there.) 43% of Bay Area Households have the income to make the payment. That's 746,463, in the RBA 4… since I count Alameda County.
Might be interesting… now that I wrote the code I'm having fun looking at listings and running the numbers. Maybe you can help come up with better house-hunter ranks? I don't want to spoil it, but based on home prices the rank changes.
Given how willing PKamp3 seems to be in helping make this tool more useful, please play with it and complain at length in the comments below. I've already groused about the inability to put a cash amount rather than a percentage amount in the down payment, and noted that Alameda County's presence in the dataset pretty much poisons the well of "Inner Bay Area" buyers. It might be "Inner" but it's not particularly Real.
Some of the limitations are due to what's available. Some cities have been removed from the dataset. I felt that the RBA should be limited to San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara counties, with the possible addition of Marin. Alameda County? That's a fine joke someone is playing on us. Once those losers are removed, then we can talk about limiting the universe some more. I would assume San Francisco residents probably don't want to buy this crapbox in Mountain View, but you never know.
Head on over to the calculator and let us know what you think of this tool and how useless it is it could be improved. Plug in some other home values and assumptions and see how many buyers you're up against. So, what do you think? Do you see a use for this? Or are you going back to sleep?

Changes to the RL 24 Class Rules
I have read the two proposed changes to the Class rules as laid out in the November 08 issue of the RL 24 Owners Association of Australia Newsletter I disagree with the wording and the thinking behind both the motions and I also think both the explanations are flawed and based on incorrect facts. There is no doubt that the use of the centreboard box filler or rubber flaps in the swing keel version of the RL 24 are performance enhancing devices. If this years AGM bans these devices so be it. Class rules have to be clear and concise and any new performance improving device has to be targeted. The explanation to justify the change makes the following errors: • Did not state that these devices were only a problem while racing under the Victorian CBH system. • The RL association did not communicate the previous ban well enough or word it properly. • Darryn blames the other States RL 24 owners and the use of swing keel filler devices for jeopardising the reputation of the RL 24. Note: The RL 24 reputation in VIC was wrecked many years ago when the light weight Gran Prix RL 24's turned up at Vic TYA events totally stripped out, with no inner mouldings, a space frame and with no safety gear! • Darryn only published part of the TYSBR Appendix E condition 5 in his explanation. I legally fitted a centre board filler/keel lockdown device to my RL way back in the early eighties one week after I got totally blitzed by Peter Yeoman's new drop keel RL 24 in its first NSW TYA race. We were both on the same rating then of .710 or was it .715 (not 100% sure!). As a result of the improved performance of Peter's new boat with its laminar flow drop keel and other improvements, the NSW RL 24 CBH rating was increased to .725 and in the following year a separate drop keel rating of .740 was introduced (I think it was .740). The centreboard filler was legal then and fitted to quite a few racing RL 24s in NSW. They all raced for many years with a NSW CBH of .725. Anyway all the above is history, I will throw my 30 year old keel filler away if a proper ban on this device is adopted at the AGM. At least this time my boat won't be clobbered with the dreaded words 'centreboard box shall be as originally constructed' as used in the previous rule change and again with conditions. The motion to introduce corrector weights to discourage the use of low powered outboards is also flawed, badly worded and will be hard to police and be open to misunderstanding. What about the weight of the outboard bracket bolted to the transom? Where does that come into the equation? I agree that allowing the use of a 2 HP outboard to propel a RL24 has to be stopped but feel we should follow the TYSBR recommendation and also other class rules by simply declaring a minimum horsepower. That minimum HP should be 3.3. and not 5. I think it is ludicrous that the RL 24 association committee can give a member of their association permission to rip out the heavy cockpit floor to stop the boat trimming by the stern. At the same time they want to fit corrector weights to some overweight, as built, RL 24 that has a 3.3 or 4 hp motor. It does not make sense. Every man and his dog knows that the best speed gain one can make to a standard RL 24 is to fibre glass or plug up the outboard well and this for some strange reason does not warrant a handicap penalty. As a consequence the engine controls now are miles away and the boat handles like a bitch when under power with engine fitted to the one side, on the transom and without the benefit of any prop wash on the rudder. I say either penalise or ban the engine on the transom and put it where it should be and that is in the trunk. I am sure you would never get the numbers to pass that rule, but you never know maybe the new TYSBR will move in on outboard trunks at the same time as keel fillers.

Absolut Lists
Absolut Cleveland.
ABSOLUT CLEVELAND is on page 77 of the 2/99 issue of VIBE magazine.
The whole appearance of this newest Absolut Vodka, including the Absolut logo, has a '60's psychedelic look to it, with a metallic framework surrounding an Absolut shape with a nighttime view of an ocean and a moon replacing the seal of the bottle. The man-in-the-moon is Lars B. Olsen!
ABSOLUT, written in ornate, connected red letters, is across the top of the ad; CLEVELAND, written in ornate, connected blue letters, is across the bottom. It looks more like a psychedelic acid-rock poster from 1960's Haight-Ashbury or a Grateful Dead poster from the 1970's than any Absolut ad I've ever seen. This is the latest in the Absolut City Series.
The artwork is by Alton Kelley, the legendary '60's artist who created some of the well-known rock-n-roll record album covers and posters from that era; please click on Haight-Ashbury Collages by Alton Kelley. This ad is obviously an homage to Cleveland as the home of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.

Well netfilter is a linux module(dynamically loadable lump of code in kernel, as linux is monolith kernel) and a framework that hooks into network stack to facilitate processing of packets.
It has two major components:
1) Netfilter component which hooks into stack and performs actions
2) Iptable component which defines a strcuture for rules. Netfilter reads these rules to perform action. Iptables also provides user an interface to configure these rules in form of a utility (also) called iptables.
Netfilter component has 5 hooks into the networking stack so that it can examine following packets
1) Incoming
2) Outgoing
3) Fowarding
4) Pre-routing
5) Post-routing
Though the first 3 are more used, last two are not behind while implementing a NAT (network address translation router using linux box) gateway or router. The difference being they require re-write of packet.
A detailed example of using iptables is given at the following link:

Ignorant world Journal 5 Pages 150-180 If you value thinking, ideas, emotions, passions, beliefs, and individualism, then you're going to hate the world described in the "book Brave New World"ÃÂ. If you value conformity, socialism, stability, and happiness, then the world described is the perfect place for you. "Everyone is happy now" is repeated throughout the book as one of the conditioning statements. Most of the people in the book could not be any happier. Sure they are ignorant, but they don't know how life should be.
In the society described in the book, the people have no emotions and expressions. They are like walking robots. Because their lives are so dull, the people turn to meaningless sex to try to add meaning to their lives. It is the only way, in addition to drugs and alcohol that they can find to feel something, anything at all in a world that has been designed to be comfortable.
They become addicted to the things that allow them to feel anything in a life that has been designed so that they don't really feel anything at all.
In such world, there is no identity because everyone belongs to everyone else. I'm sure there are plenty of people in the world today who would find this society a wonderful and perfect place. I think that there is no point of living in such world. I know I wouldn't be able to live without a goal, or something to build my life upon. Maybe I am not happy as the people described in the book, but at least my life is interesting, I can enjoy it, and I have my own opinion.
People living in this type of community are just like the one described in the song "nowhere man"ÃÂ by the Beatles. In this song the chorus is " he's a real nowhere man, sitting in his nowhere land, making all his nowhere plans, for nobody"ÃÂ. This song basically describes a man living in a world with no worries, no plans, no views, and no opinions. To the man, the world seems normal, because he doesn't know anything else.
There are some good things about being a "nowhere man"ÃÂ, and living in a world that he lives in. This kind of world is peaceful with no worries. No one complains because no one knows better. What the people in such are, is what they were positioned to be, and they are proud of it. They don't understand or know, that they could be better. Also, there is no competition between people, since no one want to improve.
I have noticed that true happiness is ignorance. That is why the majority of the people are happy. They do not know what they are missing. People don't want to open their eyes to reality and see what is going on around them. The cause of this in some cases is the ignorance of everyone else around them. If you are in a community or people that only see the good things in their eyes, you don't want to ruin everyone's good time, so you follow their way of living. Sooner or later, ignorant people will see reality, and cry for what they have missed all their life.
Communities that try to be perfect but actually have the most problems. We shouldn't walk around and think that everything is good, and that we have no worries. If everyone would be all happy, this world would be a boring place to live in. What we should do is open our eyes, and be individuals. We should go after our own thoughts, and not other people's. I hope that the world today will never reach the situation where people walk around like robots, and follow what they have been told to do.

4 FanDuel Premier League Players to Avoid in Matchweek 4
DFS players rejoice! The international break is over and the transfer window has closed. The first few weeks of any sport are chaos for fantasy players as teams continually adjust their lineups.
The Premier League is even more chaotic for the fantasy community, as most players participated in summer competitions and may have entered the season unfit -- not to mention the transfer window that lingers during the start of the season.
DFS players should start to see more consistency in lineups as well as player roles, as managers start to understand the capabilities of their full squad. It is still imperative to check starting lineups when they are posted, as there are always late fitness checks and scratches. Hopefully those fitness checks are mentioned throughout the week, making DFS players lives a bit easier.
As with any sport, it is imperative to have your players, especially the high-priced studs, live up to their price tag. When making an investment into any player, it is important to determine which players will likely contribute in FanDuel's emphasized areas (goals, assists, and shots on target).
It's just as important not to overspend on players in bad matchups. Let's take a look a four players who should be avoided in the upcoming matches.
Jamie Vardy, Leicester City
FanDuel Price: £9.5 million
Vardy is the eighth-most expensive forward on FanDuel and has averaged 12.83 points through three weeks. That point total is unacceptable from a DFS point of view for a player as pricey as Vardy. The striker was able to find the net for the first time this season in his previous match against Swansea City, greatly increasing Vardy's average point total.
Vardy has under-performed this season, scoring only one goal. For DFS players, especially on FanDuel, goals can be the difference between winning and losing. The goals from Vardy have been disappointing, but the lack of involvement in the attack is more discouraging, as Vardy has taken only seven shots, with one on target.
Vardy's opponent, Liverpool, will be playing at Anfield for the first time this season and should be able to feed off the energy of their home fans. The Reds have controlled 57.8% of the possession this season, while Leicester has possessed the ball 49.7% of the time on the road. Liverpool's back line is mediocre, but they were able to render Tottenham's Harry Kane ineffective in their previous match.
Vardy is a great striker and will undoubtedly score goals this season. However, DFS players should wait until Vardy is more involved in the attack as well as having a consistent starter next to him up front.
Dušan Tadić, Southampton
FanDuel Price: £9.9 million
Tadić is the 15th-highest priced midfielder on FanDuel for Matchweek 4. Tadić has averaged 18.58 FanDuel points in the first three matches and has been credited with 10 chances created, per FanDuel. Digging deeper into those numbers show that since Matchweek 1 --- when Southampton was up a man for the final 20 minutes against Watford --- Tadić has only four chances created and has been unable to place a shot on target.
|Matchweek 1
|Matchweek 2 and 3
|Chances Created
|Shots on Target
|5 Successful Passes
Arsenal, his opponent, have improved defensively since conceding four goals in their first match against Liverpool and enter this mach as the favorite. Tadić has great skill on the ball and will have the opportunity for more goals this season, but his role is also undefined as Southampton recently signed Sofiane Boufal, another attacking midfielder. Until DFS players see the how Southampton involves their players in the attack they should look for another player with more upside in Matchweek 4.
Kyle Walker, Tottenham
FanDuel Price: £8.5 million
Walker has averaged 13.83 FanDuel points in three matches and is the eighth-highest priced defender for Matchweek 4. Tottenham is a slight favorite over Stoke City and should control the possession as they average 54.4% of the possession on the road while Stoke averages 44.9% of the possession at home.
After his performance in Matchweek 1, scoring 26.75 FanDuel points, Walker has been ineffective for fantasy players, averaging just over 7 points in Matchweek 2 and 3. Walker's production, both offensively and defensively, has dropped. In Matchweek 1, Walker had one assist, three tackles and four clearances.
Since then, the defender has tallied three clearances and four tackles.
Danny Rose, according to the team's Twitter account, has been ruled out of Saturday's match. Rose's injury could force the Potters to be more aggressive in their attack opposite of Walker, limiting his ability to score defensive points. DFS players should look elsewhere for defenders who have a higher likelihood of earning defensive statistics in Matchweek 4.
David de Gea, Manchester United
FanDuel Price: £8.3 million
de Gea is priced as the top keeper this week, along with Arsenal's Petr Cech. The United keeper has recorded two straight clean sheets and now faces Manchester City without Sergio Agüero. Although de Gea is fortunate to face City without one of top strikers in the world, the keeper should be avoided this week.
Manchester City has 50 shots this season, fifth-most in the Premier League, while averaging a league leading 65.8% of the possession. The Red Devils, at Old Trafford, have only possessed the ball 46.1% of the time, ranking 14th in the Premier League. City, even without Aguero, will likely control the possession giving the Sky Blues a good opportunity to score a goal. City will likely replace Agüero with Kelechi Iheanacho, the only player in the Premier League, since 2015-16, who has fewer minutes per goal than Agüero.
DFS players may see an Agüero-less City squad and assume the opponent's keeper is a great play. City will still employ Nolito and Raheem Sterling, who have combined for four goals this season, as well as likely replacing Agüero with Iheanacho. de Gea is one of the top keepers in the world and is always capable of a huge performance, but he is not an ideal play against Manchester City, especially at his price.

Corporate Governance
Fundamental Approach
We, the Konami Group, aim to be an enterprise that will continue to keep our stakeholders always looking forward with anticipation as we create and provide our current and future customers with products and services that offer "Valuable Time". Furthermore, our basic management policy is to "keep the basic attitude to value shareholders," "maintain sound relationships with all stakeholders, including our shareholders, and contribute to society as a good corporate citizen."
We believe that open and transparent management is fundamental to ensuring the integrity of this basic philosophy. That is why robust corporate governance has been a priority of our management.
Corporate Governance Overview
From early on, Konami Group has undertaken efforts to reform its board of directors, including welcoming our first outside director in 1992, in order to ensure the openness and transparency of our management. At present, three of our nine directors are outside directors, while four of our five audit & supervisory board members are outside audit & supervisory board members.
Each of these outside officers brings a wealth of experience and accomplishment, as well as broad knowledge and understanding.
In our estimation, these are highly independent directors and audit & supervisory board members who are free from conflicts of interest with general shareholders and who actively express their views on the Board of Directors.
With respect to audit & supervisory board members and our system of auditing, our Audit & Supervisory Board consists of five audit & supervisory board members, including four outside audit & supervisory board members and two full-time audit & supervisory board members.Each Audit & Supervisory Board Member conducts strict audits on the Directors' performance of their duties, by attending the Board of Directors meetings and interviewing with executives.

Lets Roar for Our tigers
The Royal Bengal Tiger is in grave danger of extinction. Our future generations may never get to see this majestic creature if we don't act now. It's our call of duty to leave the world in a better state than we found it. We take the onus on us to make a difference, Wild Tiger Rum and its supporters pledge a part of the profits from their respective businesses towards this cause.
WTF works very closely with two Tiger Reserves Wayanad and Sathyamangalam both in Southern India.
Our Founder's Support to wtf
A tiger sighting is the ultimate reward for anyone on safari in India and when I got an invitation from my childhood friend Gautom to co-found WTF, it was something that was on mind too and a very straight forward decision to be on board. Together with our friends and associates we aim to work alongside with other NGO's on ground as enablers and do our little bit as responsible citizens.

When Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) returned to Congress during Monday evening's bipartisan debt-ceiling vote, the historic moment united those on both sides of the aisle as well as on both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.
Vice President Biden told more than a dozen reporters crowded into a hallway off the House chamber after Giffords's arrival Monday night that the bipartisan outpouring of joy at her return found him face-to-face on the House floor with Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) — a fierce critic of President Obama and a contender for the GOP's 2012 presidential nomination.
"Here I'm hugging Gabby and Michele Bachmann," Biden said, recounting the scene on the House floor. "Seriously! I'm being literal!"
"You hugged Michele Bachmann?" one incredulous reporter asked.
"Sure!" Biden said. "I like Michele Bachmann. For real. ... We're all standing there around, and Michele walks up to see Gabby, because she cares about her. I mean, look. The thing that sometimes gets lost in this place — maybe I spent too much time here as a senator -- there is a basic humanity here, man. It matters between people. I know that sounds corny."
A Bachmann spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday night.
Biden, who was already at the Capitol Monday lobbying Democrats to support the debt compromise, said he had received word from House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) of Giffords's return only "a few minutes" before her arrival.
"Look, don't let anybody know, but we're going to have Gabby here," Biden said Pelosi told him.
He said that he and Giffords "commiserated about the steps of recovery" Monday — Biden has had two craniotomies — and joked that he told her: "Now we're both members of the cracked-head club."
He also reflected on the tenacity of Giffords and her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, who in June commanded the final, 16-day flight of the space shuttle Endeavour.
"Think about what that woman's been through, and think about her determination," he told reporters. "And think about, at the same time all that's going on — a lot of you are married — think about at the same time that's going on, you're the husband or you're the injured party, either one, and one's going to space and one's trying to get back to earth. Think about it. It's an incredible family."
"She's remarkable," he said emphatically. "Will matters. Will matters."
As dozens of aides, lawmakers and onlookers crowded into the halls just outside the House chamber in the commotion after Monday's vote, Giffords's Democratic and Republican colleagues said they were overjoyed — and stunned — by her return.
Rep. Rob Andrews (D-N.J.) called Giffords's surprise return for Monday's debt-limit vote "a spectacular coda to the story."
"I was standing behind one of the computers anxiously watching the vote totals," Andrews said. "And I heard all this applause erupt and I thought, 'Why is this?' I mean, something odd just happened. And then word quickly spread."
Although he didn't get to speak with her on the House floor because of the crowd, Andrews joked that he noted Giffords "voted the right way."
"As low as that Saturday morning was, this was equally high," he said, referring to the January day that Giffords was shot. "As shocked and as rattled as we were on that Saturday morning, this was equally, spectacularly good. ... After all the sourness and bitterness and ugliness of this process, it was a beautiful human moment that reminded us what really counts."
Rep. Trent Franks (R), like Giffords a member of Arizona's House delegation, called it "a heart-moving privilege to see Gabby on the floor tonight."
"I had the chance just to tell her how glad we were to see her and to hug her," Franks said. "I'm just so grateful that every once in a while, with all the tragedies and ugliness in life, that someone just comes along and transcends it with just a warm, loving spirit and a commitment that just rises above the heartache. ... She has personified what persistence and courage and the human heart are all about."
Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) called Giffords's arrival Monday night "nothing short of magical."
"It was a blessing to everyone," said Ellison, who like Giffords is a member of the class of 2006. "And I mean, quite frankly, today is the first day of Ramadan for me, it's a very spiritual time. So for her to walk through that door was spiritually uplifting. She and I are classmates, and I've always had a lot of affection for her and a friendship with her. To see her walk through that door – I almost got weepy, man. I almost got a little sloppy. I was just so happy to see her."
Giffords's return, he added, "means that she is a dedicated public servant. And she is iron-willed and that she loves this country and everybody in it and she wouldn't let anything stop her from doing what she saw as her duty."
Asked about the meaning of Giffords's return for Monday's vote, Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) said the message was simple: "Welcome back, Gabby."
"I mean, it's not about the vote," he said. "It's about her being back, being with us, hanging in there and overcoming this astonishing event. Honestly, the vote was nothing. Her presence was everything."
As for Biden, one reporter wanted to know what the vice president told Bachmann when the two embraced.
Biden responded with a smile: "I said, 'Great to see you, Michele.'"

Sleeping Bear Dunes Events: Sleeping Bear Dunes Receives Grant
Sleeping Bear Dunes Events: National measures are being taken to help maintain the beautiful Sleeping Bear Dunes Lakeshore area, a local paradise not far from Traverse City. Recently the Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes have been selected to receive a 2012 Active Trails Grant from the National Park Foundation, which is the official charity of America's national parks. Currently in it's fourth cycle, the National Parks Foundation's Active Trails program works to promote national parks as venues for community engagement and to encourage healthy living through various forms of recreation and volunteer activity on land and water trails.
The $18,000 grand enables the Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes to purchase signage for the first segment of the new Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail (SBHT), and to develop a "Trail Ambassador" volunteer program to assist in patrols and maintenance of the SBHT. The Trail will officially open on June 20, 2012, with a ribbon cutting ceremony at 1:30 p.m.
"Maintaining over 18,000 miles of trails is no small task," said Neil Mulholland, President and CEO of the National Park Foundation. "The Active Trail funds help parks across the country create or expand vital trail related projects, improving the visitor experience and encouraging engagement opportunities with each parks' gateway community."
Since 2008, the National Park Foundation has granted over $1.2 million through its Active Trails program. To date, Active Trails has engaged more than 3,100 volunteers and 86 project partners who combined have contributed over 13,000 hours to help promote, refurbish, or build national park trails that were ultimately enjoyed by 291,000 visitors (and counting!).
Dusty Shultz, Superintendent of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, noted how important the Active Trails Grant is to the opening of the SBHT. "The National Park Foundation's Active Trails Grant to the Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes fills a critical need for the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail. Trail signage was not included in the initial construction grant, and the Trail Ambassador and maintenance program can now be put in place for the trail opening."
A listing of all of the parks which recieved grants from the National Park Foundation grand to maintainActive Trails project can be found on the National Park Foundation website.

Very often, the city called on the rivers on which they stand. And probably the only case where the sea was named for the city based on its shore. Maybe because the sea a little? Or a very old city?
Let's start with the sea. Although it is small, yes udalenkoe. And no worse than its neighbor, which is connected to the Kerch Strait. First, the Sea of Azov is always several degrees warmer than the Black Sea, and second, not so deep and cleaner. Thirdly, it is less salty, but it contains 92 chemical elements that are useful to the human body. You can continue to list ...
The ancient Greeks who settled in these parts before the BC seem to have been aware of such a useful Vodice. However, a secret paradise to keep failed on a piece of cake found many envious. There is a queue and visited the Sarmatians, Huns, Khazars and, and Pechenegs. Behind them a bit pohozyaynichat Vladimir Red Sun, whose changed Cumans. These guys are worth special mention - they gave a foothold, finally, outside the town name - Azov (Azak) and it is with them is the official calendar of the city - from 1067. However, to retain the city failed, and that. In the XIII century in the Azov has ruled the Genoese, ferrying goods along the Silk Road. And in the XIV Century (1395) came Tamerlane and all Porush. The Genoese city was restored, but, again, briefly. In 1471 the Turks occupied Azov. You have not yet tired of this leapfrog? Very similar song about Ten Little Indians.
With the Turks turned out funny. They ruled the relatively long time, until he was tired of the Don Cossacks. In 1637 the Cossacks took the fortress and began hosting the entire coast. But his strength to keep the edge they had, and Azov Moscow at the time was not in store. Although the Cossacks, and received thanks for his great seat of Azov in 1641, when able, as they say, to resist the superior forces of the enemy, in 1643, they had to leave him, as Kutuzov Moscow. Leaving the city Cossacks literally wiped from the face of the earth. Note - For the second time in its history Azov completely destroyed. That raises the question - at what point to consider the base of the city? We quickly conclude the military theme - were further Azov campaigns Peter I, who went though and Azov, but did not bring joy, another Turkish company, is another - and in 1736 became a Russian Azov. Forever you? Practice shows that 200-300 years for the city is not time. So, while you can always go to the Sea of Azov, and at the same time visit this long-suffering city. Here, you can still see trees famous fortress and touch history.
Thus, the historical monuments of Azov:
Ramparts with gates Alekseevskii
One of the famous places of the city of Azov - the remains of walls and stone gates of the XIV century - is located on Genoa Street, near the old fish plant. The most thorough study of this monument has been subjected during the excavations carried out in 1935, the Rostov Regional Office for Protection of Monuments and confirmed his identity Italic.
By the time of excavation the gates were two parallel stone walls (piers) located on the end face of the fortress and earthworks separated by more than 3 m. The length of the walls reaches 13.5 m wall gates were faced with hewn stone. Survived and forged pins vdolblennye in solid rock.

Their height ranges from 5 to 15 meters wide at the base - from 10 to 30 meters, and on the ridge - from 5 to 15 meters. On parallel axes - st. Dzerzhinsky - preserved moat, built in XVI century. Its depth of 12 meters, length - 100 m with slopes ranging from 450 to 600. To him immediately adjacent part of the wall height to 30 meters, almost vertical slope (up to 800).
Ramparts were built by the Turks in XVI - XVII centuries and then rebuilt in the XVIII century Russian project of a military engineer Laval. Through the walls were done eleven gates, of which only well-preserved so-called Alexis gate with a vaulted tunnel, built of stone and brick.
Ramparts with gates Alekseevskii - interesting monuments of military engineering, witnesses siege seat of Don Cossacks (XVII cent.) And the Azov campaigns Peter the Great.
Alexis gate of the fortress of Azov (XVIII century) at the beginning of his stories were made of wood - in 1770, then rebuilt in stone - 1801-1805 years. Finally restored in XX century.
Plaques and Monuments, located nearby, are a kind of historical reserve, which highlights the inextricable link ages. Under the arches of the gate Alexis you feel the breath of history: the echoes of your steps as if to repeat once took place here hum fiercest battles.
This is the old fortress of Azov is called the Turkish people the shaft, which historically inaccurate. Experts called Russian or Alekseevskii.
After nearly a century a succession of Russian-Turkish wars for the right to possession of the fortress of Azov, Azov in 1774, was forever enshrined in the Russian Empire.
Legend has it that the shaft is sprinkled with the most primitive technology of that era - human hands and hats.

The presumptive favorite for the Raiders head coaching job quietly interviewed for the job before anyone realized it.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Packers assistant head coach Winston Moss met with Raiders G.M. Reggie McKenzie for four hours last Saturday after the Packers completed preparations for their game against the Giants. Mike Tice interviews on Tuesday.
Moss has long been seen as the favorite for the job, although speculation recently is starting to go in another direction. Schefter adds to the growing speculation that Eagles offensive coordinator Marty Mornhingweg has a good chance to get the job.
The Raiders are expected to make their choice by the end of the week.

Meant to be or not meant to be . . . that is the question.
It's one thing to fall head over heels into a puddle of hazelnut coffee, and quite another to fall for the—gasp—wrong guy. Straight-A junior Julia may be accident prone, but she's queen of following rules and being prepared. That's why she keeps a pencil sharpener in her purse and a pocket Shakespeare in her, well, pocket. And that's also why she's chosen Mark Bixford, her childhood crush, as her MTB ("meant to be").
But this spring break, Julia's rules are about to get defenestrated (SAT word: to be thrown from a window) when she's partnered with her personal nemesis, class-clown Jason, on a school trip to London. After one wild party, Julia starts receiving romantic texts . . . from an unknown number! Jason promises to help discover the identity of her mysterious new suitor if she agrees to break a few rules along the way. And thus begins a wild goose chase through London, leading Julia closer and closer to the biggest surprise of all: true love.
Because sometimes the things you least expect are the most meant to be.
I thought Meant to Be was freaking adorable. Like "giggly, butterflies-in-the-tummy, awww that's so sweet" kind of adorable. And the fact that it's set in London just makes it so much better.
I don't think we were meant to love Julia as she was in the beginning but I absolutely did. She's smart, studious, responsible and didn't take anybody's bullshit. I actually feared that I wouldn't end up loving this book because Jason just came across as this huge asshat when he was first introduced. And while he definitely maintains some of that asshattness throughout the rest of the novel, Morrill succeeded in developing his character because I had a giant soft spot for him when I finished the book. He kind of reminded me of a fourth grade boy picking on a girl because he likes her. I think Julia and Jason complimented each other and their relationship progressed so naturally. Yay for no instalove!
There were times when I found the Jason and Mark and Chris triangle to be a bit of a headache. If this book wasn't called "Meant To Be" I probably would've had a much bigger problem with it but everything worked out in a way that was clever and charming and true to the theme of the story.
Overall, I really enjoyed Meant to Be. It's cute, romantic, fun, has a gorgeous setting that visits some of London's best tourist spots and it's ridiculously charming. It's definitely one of the more lighthearted contemporary novels I've read this year. If you need a book that will make you smile, I definitely recommend this one!

An Egyptian man who bears a close resemblance to Saddam Hussein claims he was threatened by a gang who wanted to use him in character as the late Iraqi dictator in a pornographic film.
Mohamed Bishr from Alexandria has often been mistaken for Saddam and was forced to move house four times to avoid harassment. "We asked the police to put special protection on our father because this has happened to us several times," his son Mahmoud said.
A group of Iraqi men initially offered him £205,000 to appear in the film but he refused and was then threatened that he would be kidnapped if he did not cooperate.
Three men attacked him on the street and dragged him into the back of a van, he said.
"The three men, who had guns hanging from their belts, forced me out of my car and shoved me into a van, hitting my head," he told Egyptian daily al-Ahram.
Bystanders gathered nearby but were too scared to intervene, he said. But then the kidnappers seemed to have a change of heart and he recalled the kidnappers shouting at each other before hurling him from the van to the pavement.
The gang wanted to sell a sex tape of Bishr to the media and claim that he was the actual Saddam, it is believed.
Saddam Hussein was known to hire doubles of himself as protection against assassination attempts.

How to Approve Google AdSense
Today i'll share How to Approve Google AdSense Easily in First Try. Google AdSense is the most trusted and oldest ads publishing company. With AdSense, we can earn lots of money if we do our work in the right way.
Why AdSense is the best?
This is because of their ads quality, it's totally awesome and one of the interesting things is that the paying rate of AdSense is better than all other ads network.
Are you ready to prepare your blog? Below are the some Top Points which AdSense looks in a Blog before Approving them. You have to do is to follow all points to change your blog according to AdSense.
#1 TLD is Necessary for Approving Google AdSense:
Top Level Domain (i.e. TLD) is necessary to get your blog approved by Google AdSense. Without TLD with sub-domain, there is very low changes (equal to 0%) of getting AdSense Approved. Various company such as Godaddy, Bigrock etc. are available where you can get a custom domain at very low price for the first year.
Solution: Just buy any TLD (.COM, .NET or .IN etc) in order to get Google AdSense Normal Account.
#2 Look at the Blog's Title and Description:
I have seen in many cases AdSense disapproves an application just for the reason "Site Doesn't Comply with Google Policy". In such cases, AdSense either didn't understand what your blog is about or your niche is different and is not related to their advertisers.
Problem: Many newbies bloggers create their blog and make their title too lengthy or just copy description from other blog and paste it to their own blog. Which becomes unnatural and boring to read for audience & AdSense Team, and which doesn't describe your blog properly.
Solution: Make your blog's Title & Description very simple and clear. For example-
SoftFunda is a tech blog where we publish article about Blogging, AdSense Tips & Tricks…………..related…to..your..niche..
#3 Create About, Privacy Policy & Contact Page:
To get approved AdSense application, your blog must have these important pages.
About Page: It describes your blog to your visitors and AdSense team. Also Through this page AdSense team may confirm that you're the same person who applied for AdSense Publisher account.
Tips: Just add genuine information about the author(you) and your blog.
Privacy Policy: Google AdSense team may use this page to know your blog is compatible with Google policy or not, you're publishing unique article or you're just scam, and what will you do with user's information!
Tips: Use any privacy policy generator tool to generator it for your blog or write it yourself it's just 20-25 minute work.
Contact Page: It indicates that you do care for your users, visitor can contact us for further help and you're ready to help them.
Tips: Make sure your blog is having a contact page with working contact form.
If you completed all above steps then move forward to further reading……
#4 Write HQ & Unique Content:
Quality Content is the baap (father) of all points, without it you never get Normal Google AdSense Account. if you want Google to pass your blog to approve your AdSense application then remember one thing that Content is not king, " Quality Content is King". So, start including quality to your article which will not only help you to get AdSense but also make your blog different from others. Always give "ALT" tag to your images.
#5 Blog/Domain Age Should Be?
According to Google AdSense policy, your domain age should be minimum 6 months old in order to create AdSense account in India.
Can you wait for 6 months? I guessed the answer will be No! right?
Actually Google wants quality and unique blog. If your blog meets their requirement, they will approve your application in 1 month only. I also made an AdSense account with 10 days old blog. Better to apply when your blogs become 45+ days old in order to get Approved in very first attempt.
#6 No. of Content should be?
This is the most common question that comes to every newbies blogger till they get fully approved by AdSense. No. of posts isn't mentioned officially, if you're writing article in 500+ words, apply for AdSense when your blog will have at least 15+ article.
#7 Template/Theme should be Adsense friendly:
The template plays a major role to establish a good interface between user and blog. The template must be responsive. You may probably be confused, which template to use. My answer is better to use those template/theme using which someone got their AdSense Approved.
#8 Add Favicon to your Blog:
Actually, favicon is not necessary to approve Google AdSense but if you add a favicon, it will increase uniqueness of your blog which is most important in case of AdSense.
#9 No Copied Content!
Common mistake that some newbies blogger make is that they just copy article from other blog and post on their blog, after that apply for AdSense and finally got dis-approved. If you are doing copy paste then you are just wasting your time.
Always make all external link "Nofollow" because link is also considered as copyright.
#10 Traffic & Ranking Should be?
Traffic is not a big point for making Google AdSense Non-Hosted Account. But, for earning $$$ you must have good traffic. And if you're getting traffic from US and Canada or good Traffic then this is plus point for you in order to approve AdSense.
#11 Did you read AdSense Policy?
If you still donot read Google AdSense Terms & Condition then it is recommended to first read that line by line.
#12 Make Your Blog Ads-free:
If you are using other Ads such as Chitika, Infolinks, Clicksor or anything, its time to remove them all. Don't put back until you get Fully AdSense Approved. After approval, you may add back if you want. Thanks for reading till the end.

I made this skirt for Nina.
Out of my old sweat shirt.
And I crocheted these little dresses for Polly Pocket and her friend.
I finished one dress in only five minutes. They are so tiny.
I think girls need some fresh new looks every spring. Maybe every four months.

Hello everyone,
First time poster. I've tinkered around with woodworking for a number of years. I'm finally building up my workshop with tools and my project list with fun. I want to build some shop tools and in particular a table saw sled. The company I work for allows us to take some of the wood used in packaging some of the parts we use. I managed to get my hands on some 3/4" 2-sided melamine plywood. It is not MDF core. Would this make good tools like a sled? It seems to me it would slide pretty well because of the melamine. My only concern is the the wood doesn't look as "tight" on the edges as other plywoods I've seen. I'm a little worried there might be a lot of voids. Does anyone have experience with material like I have described?

Hi my name is Lord Cylarne and welcome to my channel! Well I guess I better start typing stuff. Hello people, I used to be a modder for a very popular mod but now after I was notified that I'm financially in debt, I had to move on from my mod and start some new content. Todo: Gain lots of subscribers and at the same time develop video games (I'm a video game developer with decent reputation for creating good content). I also wish to create satire and at the same time develop a shoutout series. In time, I will blow up Earth.
My modo is: Give me time and the content you receive will be worth it. #DrunkCylarne


text: There's a reason Itchy & Scratchy cartoons rarely occupy more than 30 seconds of any Simpsons episode: stretch the concept to the full half hour, and the ratings would plummet. It's the same for videogames. While Itchy and Scratchy appeared in a hilarious cameo on the Super NES cartridge Bart's Nightmare, here they duke it out in an interminable, multistage whackfest. As for Simpsons-style irony, despite a plethora of chainsaws, axes, and flamethrowers, The Itchy and Scratchy Game has been deemed appropriate for kids six and older by the ever-vigilant Software Ratings Board.

"My mom feels that way, she will not watch music videos for that exact reason."
I'm happy to report two new interviews related to "Carter Family: Don't Forget This Song"...
"Everything you hear in their voices, they really had lived it."
Stephen M. Deusner sat down to talk with Frank Young and I about the book for Engine 145.
It was an enjoyable conversation. Among other things, we talked about the research we did for the book, and the dream Frank had, about 10 years ago, that shaped how the entire novel would eventually look.
I sat down with two friends and collaborators, Chris Estey and Mairead Case, and we talked about music, and comics, and comics about music, for KEXP's blog. KEXP, for those who don't know, is one of Seattle's best radio stations, and can be heard online. It's a thrill to be on the blog of a station I listen to regularly...
Thanks Stephen, Chris, and Mairead for talking with us!

Jules Cambon : biography
Jules-Martin Cambon (5 April 1845 in Paris – 19 September 1935 in Vevey, Switzerland) was a French diplomat.
Life and career
He began his career as a lawyer in (1866), served in the Franco-Prussian War and entered the civil service in 1871. He was prefect of the départment of Nord (1882) and of the Rhône (1887–1891), and in 1891 became governor-general of Algeria, where he had served in a minor position in 1874.
He was nominated French ambassador at Washington D.C. in 1897, and in that capacity negotiated the preliminaries of peace on behalf of the Spanish government after the war with the United States. He was serving as the French ambassador to the United States during the War of 1898. He was an active participant in the peace negotiations between Spain and United States and a contributor to the final agreement, the Treaty of Paris of 1898. His role in those negotiations helped Spain and France to develop a strong political partnership.
He was transferred in 1902 to Madrid, and in 1907 to Berlin, where he served as French ambassador to Germany until the outbreak of World War I in 1914, and then as the head of the political section of the French foreign ministry during the war. His brother, Paul, was also a notable French diplomat.

Family Skiing At Steamboat Springs
Read more about skiing with kids and visiting Steamboat Springs.
This month's #MOMtravelchat was all about skiing with kids. Steamboat Springs Ski & Resort hosted the party and Smart Wool provided giveaways to keep several of our party goers warm in the outdoors this winter.

Here is what you missed.
Top Tips about SteamBoat
We learned a lot about Steamboat Springs, of course. For starters, Powder Magazine readers voted it the best ski town in North America last year. One factor in this could be it's Olympic cred. The town has produced more winter Olympians than any other in North America, 88 so far!
We also learned the Steamboat is pretty accessible. Its base has the lowest elevation in Colorado, so it's easier to adjust to the altitude change. Local Hayden Airport has direct flights from 11 other cities. And if you fly in, your boarding pass gets you free night skiing the day you arrive. If you're driving, Colorado has an excellent website dedicated to road conditions and safe driving.
We got a few tips on saving money: Kids get free lift tickets and free rentals when they accompany an adult who skis and rents, too. And if you buy your lift tickets online at least seven days ahead, you can save up to 15%.
How Our Families Ski
All of our partygoers have skied with their kids or want to. Even parents who don't ski themselves are interested in having their kids learn.
Families both drive and fly to ski destinations. Of course, families who live within one to three hours or so of a ski mountain start their kids younger and go more often than those who have no skiing close by. The most dedicated families go every two to three weeks or more during the winter, especially if they own season passes.
Parents say small local ski hills are less expensive, have easier parking and are easier to navigate than bigger resorts, which help them to just get out and ski more often. But bigger resorts often have better ski schools and a wider variety of ski runs, which parents and older kids and teens appreciate. So serious ski families will visit a larger resort once a year or so and will stay for an extended weekend or a week, especially if they fly.
Parents most prefer ski weekends. They are affordable and there is more time than on a day trip to ski and have other fun, too..
Parents who ski themselves are more likely to start their kids skiing sooner than parents who don't; sometimes as young as age 3 (which is when ski lessons start at Steamboat). Most parent say somewhere between 4 to 7 is ideal and tween-age is almost too late.
Top Tips for Family Skiing
Most parents agree ski lessons are the best way for kids to learn the basics. Instructors do a better job of making learning fun and pushing kids out of their comfort zone. And lessons give parents a few hours to ski on their own before joining their kids.
Some parents who had never skied before took the opportunity to learn when their kids did. Some resorts lessons for adult learners or allow parents and kids to learn together.
Parents also suggest skiing with other families. Being with other kids the same age on adds to the fun and helps kids to be more adventurous.
Though you might not think it, the sun can be strong on ski slopes, especially up high in the Rockies, so sun screen, lip balm and sun glasses or goggles are important for kids.
Layers and good socks and mittens from quality companies like Smart Wool or Under Armor are the best way to keep warm. Pack extras in case things get wet! Hand and foot warmers are handy, too!
While renting equipment off the mountain can save money, some parents note that renting on the mountain means less schlepping and squeezing equipment into the car. If kids get free rentals, that's an extra enticement. But even on the mountain, it saves time and stress to pick up lift tickets and equipment the night before a morning lesson.
With older kids it's a good idea to meet up at a given place every hour or two for a check-in.
Top Tips for Fun off the Slopes
Parents say one way to kill the fun on a ski trip is to overdo the skiing, especially when kids are young. Take breaks, bring snacks, and buy hot cocoa.
A few hours a day on the slopes can be enough, especially on a longer trip. Then families can spend time sledding, tubing or just playing in the snow. Parents say it helps to give kids a say in those other activities.
A lot of families also like combining skiing with swimming and make a point of booking a hotel with an indoor hotel pool or skiing where there is an indoor water park. Families who visit Steamboat like combining skiing with the hot springs.
Families also like skiing at a destination with a real ski village, walking around to shop and try different restaurants also adds to the fun and makes it a complete vacation experience.

Payroll on Bloomberg Tax is built to get you to the right answer faster and more efficiently. Get all the payroll intelligence you need with Bloomberg Tax expert analysis, perspectives and...
May 27—Per diem rates for U.S. business travel to more than 90 cities and jurisdictions including Sydney, Kuala Lumpur and Seoul were updated by the U.S. State Department and are to be effective June 1, 2016, the department said.
While the rates are the maximum tax free reimbursement rates issued for U.S. government employees traveling on official business in foreign areas, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service also allows U.S.-based employers to use the per diem substantiation method based on the rate schedule for accountable business travel by employees.
Employers can pay for employees for business meals, lodging and incidental expenses up to the allowable amounts without generating additional U.S. federal taxable income for the business traveler.
All jurisdictions in the following countries were updated: Malaysia, New Zealand, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, South Africa and South Korea.
The latest list released by the department also includes changes to localities in Algeria, Australia, Botswana and Portugal.
The U.S. State Department foreign per diem amounts are available at http://aoprals.state.gov/web920/per_diem_action.asp?MenuHide=1&CountryCode=0000.
More information on payroll issues in the countries mentioned can be found within the International Payroll Decision Support Country Primers.

New Video: The Julie Ruin, 'Oh Come On'
The Julie Ruin get back to basics in their "Run Fast" video.
We're die-hard Kathleen Hanna fans around here — after all, no music education (or gender studies education, for that matter) is complete without delving into the history of riot grrrl torchbearer acts like Bikini Kill or Le Tigre, both of which Hanna belonged to and helped found. And though we haven't heard anything from either band in some time, Hanna's nowhere done with her pro-feminist mission, which has taken new form in garage-punk/electroclash act The Julie Ruin, and a perfectly DIY video for their song "Oh Come On."
Watch The Julie Ruin's "Oh Come On" video after the jump.
Directed by Erin Greenwell, "Oh Come On" — a cut from the band's upcoming album, Run Fast — features the five-piece rocking out in a sparsely decorated room, which has Christmas lights strung up all around the walls to spell out "The Julie Ruin." (Etsy fanatics, please take note.) As Hanna and her cohorts sing-screech the words to "Oh Come On" and lose themselves in the song's sharp, distortion-laced guitar lines, the group's performance is intercut with quirky blink-and-you-miss-it shots of (what I like to call) each member's "Bitchy Resting Face."
Look out for The Julie Ruin's Run Fast album when it drops Sept. 3 via the band's TJR Records.

Just thought I'd tell you about Atlas Reactor
It's a game I gave a negative review on steam... However they apparently changed it to Full Free to Play model instead of a "demo" model. So I am giving it a second chance because the game itself is pretty much a genius concept.
So check it out, I am downloading it now :P

Leasing the High Life in Bushwick
New York Times Home and Garden section, this converted loft in Bushwick, Brooklyn is a testament to what a 10 year commitment, and god knows how many hours on the L train, can get you. The 2,700 sq. ft. rented space is home to two couples, comprised of two architects and two fashion designers. The results are obvious; decorated with a mix of found objects and obvious splurges. I highly encourage you to check out the full article on the NYTimes. Photography by Bruce Buck for the NYTimes.

I'm going to the Regency Ball in Bath later this year, so being me I've started with the accessories (oops). This is a silk reticule, made on the Imperia in a rather yummy heavyweight pure silk. I'm fairly pleased for a first attempt and Its been given the general thumbs up by friends with a good knowledge of Regency styles. This one will be going to a new home to fund more silk for more reticule experiments :) Its the only catch with experimenting with silk, not a cheap raw material, but the results are lovely.

28 May 1945:
"Ketsu-Go"(Decisive Operation) is the Japanese plan for defeating the Allied invasion. Since the only beaches suitable for amphibious assaults are on Kyushu and the Kanto plain, south of Tokyo, Japanese intelligence correctly predicts the invasion will take place in southern Kyushu at Miyazaki, Ariake Bay and the Satsuma Peninsula. The American landings at Kyushu will be opposed by 14 Japanese divisons, seven independent mixed brigades, three tank brigades and thousands of men of the Special Naval Landing Forces. These and other formations based on western Honshu and Shikoku come under the Second General Army commanded by Field Marshal Hata Shunroku, headquartered at Hiroshima Castle. On Kyushu alone, 790,000 mostly well dug-in Japanese with pre-registered weapons will oppose 550,000 American invaders.
The IJN have few remaining warships left and little fuel. They still have some fleet submarines, but between April and June 1945, of 248 Kaiten suicide torpedoes ordered only 158 are produced. Instead of 300 smaller Kairyu submersibles, only 125 are built and instead of 110 Koryu midget submarines only 44 were produced. In the case of the Kaitens and Kairyus, the Naval General Staff expects a 33 percent hit rate, 66 percent for Koryus and 10 per cent for Shinyo manned explosive motor boats. The five-man Koryu midget submarines will be employed with either two torpedoes or an explosive charge in the suicide role. The IJN plans to have 540 Koryu in service by the time of the invasion.
The two-man Kairyu is armed with either two torpedoes or an explosive charge. Most Kairyu are based at Yokosuka and inlets on the southern tip of the Miura peninsula. By the fall of 1945, approximately 740 Kairyu are planned to be deployed for home island defense in concealed bases in Kyushu and Shikoku, but Allied bombing reduces considerably the number of midget submarines that will be available. 24 July 1945:
That same day, following TG 35.3's bombardment of Kushimoto, four Kaitens are deployed from Otsujima base to Tanabe to be attached to the Sixth Special Attack Unit. 8 August 1945:
15 August 1945: Cessation of Hostilities:
18 August 1945:
2 September 1945: Formal Surrender Ceremonies:
