A recent study reported that 90% of all passwords are vulnerable to being hacked in just seconds. Moreover, it was stated that the 10000 most common passwords dictionary may easily allow access to 98% of all secured accounts (Video). That means that we are prone to being attacked.
Image 1. Source: PCMag
Just a fast glance at the dictionary and I could find some common patterns in the "random" passwords listed. The use of worldwide famous brands. The alfa-numerical combinations always have the numbers at the end. The numbers are always used in a given order; ascendant, descendant or a given relation, e.g. progression. The capital letters are used as the first character.
Image 1. Source hackmyass.wordpress.com
The main problem is that we are quite lazy for typing and thinking. Long passwords are not only difficult to write, but also difficult to remember. Typing any random combination of characters is also difficult to remember. The main question is how to get a password that is strong, easy to use and easy to remember.
Some days ago PCMag published an article about using passphrases. The main advantage is that they are larger; thus, more difficult to hack. The magazine also published a so called S.M.A.R.T. approach for creating passwords. As we will see, most of the advantages of this suggestion are implicitly accomplished when using passphrase.
Strong, which is simply to use many characters. With a simple phrase we can easily exceed 20 characters in an easy way to remember them. If we just type random characters, for sure it will be easy to forget them.
As already stated, when trying to use multi-character in a single password, we simply put the capital and the numeric characters either at the end or at the end. When using passphrase, we can easily use a special character to sepparate words. Most password systems don't allow the space character. Thus, one typically way to separate the words is to capitalize the first letter of a word. Other alternative could be to intercalate a full capital word with a full minuscules word. Other suggestion could be to separate the words with a capital, a number or a special character, e.g. a dash.
Avoid association
Most people usually uses passwords related to their pets name or car o birthday or some other "personal" information. I underlined the word personal, since the social media changed the meaning of personal information. Now it is very easy for a hacker to find some personal information just by some internet surfing. However, if we do not use something personal, we may easily forget what was the phrase.
This random is not about random characters, but for using different passwords for different accounts. If we use one master password for everything, there is the risk that if such password is hacked then all our accounts are accessible.
The only advise, would be to follow a rule of thumb of one passwords for some 5 sites. However, also the use of passphrases would solve this issue. One paragraph could easily provide several passphrases.
This suggestion is about using a password management tool (PMT). PMT is a software that organizes passwords within a database. The main difference from normal databases, is that PMT encrypts the data.
Personally, I still have doubts about such tools, since the database is as accessible as any other file. Nevertheless, I admit that such software force us to.
To summarize, it is important to realize that with the internet web all computers are linked in a single network. We have access to communication and data, but at the same time it shares our information whether we want it or not. Besides, we are prone to receive virus or other unwanted data-files. Some unwanted files not only steal our information, but also damage our computer.
Some basic suggestion not only to protect our files and our equipment, but for surfing the internet:
Use a passphrase instead of password. One phrase from a text or a favorite quotation. That would easily provide us a passwords long, random and multicharacter password
Be careful with the information that we publish online. Let's realize that when we publish something online, we share it with the whole world

On Sept. 10, scientists found the largest recorded meteorite since Hoba (60-tons) weighing in at 30-tons in northern Argentina in an area known as Campo del Cielo or "Field of Heaven."
The Gancedo meteorite is the second-largest ever found and was discovered 674 miles north of Buenos Aires.
Scientists believe it landed there during a shower of metallic meteorites containing 100 tons of space debris which fell to Earth 4,000 years ago.
Some estimate the meteorite to be worth as much as $10-$12 million.

Clare Fenwick and Ruben Faller
Maastricht University / UNU-MERIT
Contemporary migration patterns and immigration to the U.S. is largely shaped by family reunification as it is the most important channel for permanent legal migration to the country.
In the time period 2011-2013, family reunification accounted for two-thirds of all legal migration to the US. There has been a long history of regulating family reunification and incorporating it within immigration policy. Ever since the introduction of the 1921 Emergency Quota law, the U.S. maintains a system that specifies quotas for specific family members seeking to join U.S. citizens. Today's system is still largely characterised by the quota system and contains key features of the 1952 and 1965 reformations of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Essentially the INA specifies quotas for five family-sponsored eligibility categories and imposes restrictions on the total number of family-sponsored admissions from each country, details of which are summarized in Table 1.
Strengths & Weaknesses
The recently published Migrant Integration Policy Index 2015 assigns the U.S. a total score of 66 in the policy area of family unification, thereby ranking the U.S.'s policy framework 14 out of 38 countries. This indicates that the U.S provides a 'slightly favourable' environment for families looking to settle and become participants of U.S. society.
One of the key strengths of the U.S. system is that it provides an effective route for U.S. citizens to unite with their families abroad. There is no quota limiting the total number of immediate relatives of U.S. citizens who want to reunify with their families in the U.S. As a result, the procedures are relatively straightforward and swift. There are few delays or backlogs in the processing of applications but families are usually able to reunite and acquire their visas within one year after they have filed their petition with the relevant authorities. Therefore, it can be argued that the U.S. system is relatively generous for U.S. citizens. However, this does not necessarily hold true for non U.S. citizens, such as temporary migrants and lawful permanent residents (LPRs) residing within the U.S.
Another strength is the fact that certain family members are eligible to apply for autonomous residence permits, which are not linked to the residency of their sponsor in cases of divorce or death. This arguably provides for a higher degree of flexibility and security for family members whose residency in the U.S. is ultimately tied to their sponsor, which is often a weakness within the family reunification policies of other countries. Essentially, the general conditions and principles underlying family reunification in the U.S. are comparably straightforward.
However, a controversial point is that sponsors have to possess a substantial amount of income or assets. While this provides for the clear advantage of ensuring that the reunification of certain family members does not burden the welfare system, it puts poorer households in a disadvantageous position, making it considerably harder for individuals with less income and assets to reunite with family members abroad.
Despite its key strengths, the U.S. system has some serious drawbacks that continue to hamper the effective processing of certain claims to family reunification. The quotas often lead to delays and seriously limit American residents from making effective use of their right to family reunification. Today the procedures for family reunification are characterised by enormous backlogs, because the demand for family reunification far exceeds the supply provided by the quotas set. Some families must wait for up to 20 years to be granted the opportunity to reunite with immediate relatives.
Furthermore, the U.S.'s policy is inflexible as it does not provide for mechanisms to adjust the quotas enough to effectively deal with increasing backlogs, delays and substantial changes in global migration patterns. An outcome of these severe delays was highlighted in a recent study by Katharine Donato, which highlights the plight of unaccompanied minors who to enter the U.S. illegally and often dangerously. She found that virtually all of those that tried to cross the U.S. Mexican border without authorisation had family currently residing in the U.S (Donato, 2015).
- Greater Flexibility
The U.S.'s system is characterised by enormous backlogs and long waiting times, which can in some cases exceed 20 years, and they prevent eligible persons and many American families from making use of the rights they possess to family reunification. This can be attributed to the quota system, which is highly inflexible in responding to fluctuating numbers of claims to family reunification. This weakness could be overcome by allowing for the system to be more flexible; for example, through introducing specific provisions that can alter the caps on the quotas and allow for more places to be made available in case of increasing numbers of applications. Additionally, the visa rollover system could be extended to include unused green cards from all parts of the immigration process.
- More Equity
Another shortcoming of the U.S system is the inherently different treatment of full U.S. citizens, LPRs and temporary residents. Many temporary residents do not have the right to family renunciation or cannot petition for their families in the U.S., even if they have sufficient resources to cover all related expenses. Given the right to family life, the U.S. system should also enable short-term residents to be able to easily reunite with their close family members under similar conditions of U.S. citizens and LPRs.
- Improved Access
The current U.S. system has disproportionate effects on the most vulnerable families. As a result, improving access to, and lowering the eligibility criteria for family reunification, which clearly favour more well off households, is important. To sponsor family members to come to the U.S., the sponsor has to possess income or assets, which amount to 125% of the poverty line as well as very high fees. These financial obligations could potentially put a very high burden on certain demographics and hinder them from taking up their right to family reunion. Possible solutions include exemptions or reductions in fees for certain vulnerable groups. This holds especially true for those that have been admitted on humanitarian grounds.

Military History Photo Friday: The Pharaoh Ramesses II Smiting the Enemies of Egypt
This carving is from the National Museum in Cairo and shows Pharaoh Ramesses II (1279-1212 BC) smiting the traditional enemies of Egypt. Shown from left to right are a Nubian, a Libyan, and an Asiatic (perhaps a Hittite). The "smiting pose" was a popular one for pharaonic imagery. Ramesses has an axe in his hand.
Ramesses II campaigned against all three of these peoples, but is most famous for his long war with the Hittites, an empire based in what is now Turkey that had spread into the Levant and threatened Egypt. His victory at the Battle of Kadesh was recorded in a long and bombastic text that was copied onto many later buildings.
Sorry for the grubby picture and the light reflection. The National Museum needs to clean its display cases!

1,3 Dimethylamylamine
N-Methyl-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL
Engineered to unleash previously unknown levels of synergy, Phenadrines unsurpassed actives, including the novel and single most effective designer fat-loss compound, N-Methyl-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL, collectively yield a new standard-setting advanced pharmaceutical-grade lipolytic stimulant and intense workout initiator. The matrix consists of:
N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine
N-Acetyl-Tyrosine (NAT) is an acetylated form of the essential amino acid, L-Tyrosine. NAT is more water soluble, and is therefore, a rapidly absorbed and more bio-available form than pure L-Tyrosine. L-Tyrosine modulates the synthesis of cortisol and thyroid hormones, as well as that of neurotransmitter catecholamines such norepinephrine (noradrenaline), epinephrine (adrenaline) and dopamine, that are depleted by stress. So, NAT supplementation reduces the impact of stress and fatigue and elevates cognitive performance. The neurotransmitter-stimulation action of NAT further synchronizes with similar synergistic action from 1,3-Dimetylamylamine and caffeine (caffeine stimulates release of catecholamines and NAT modulates their synthesis), leading to enhanced thermogenesis and lipolysis. Furthermore, by modulating thyroid hormones, NAT supports optimised base metabolic rate, promotes protein synthesis and glucose metabolism, enhances lipid metabolism by increasing adipose tissue sensitivity to hormones that modulate fat breakdown. As is well known, even a slight increase in active thyroid-hormone levels can produce a dramatic improvement in metabolism, energy levels, and mental attitude. Besides, NATs cortisol-modulating impact supports reduced fatigue, better recovery, and reduced adipose storage.
An epimedium flavonoid and testosterone mimetic, icariin is a natural anabolic that possesses a variety of unique pharmacological actions in the body. It plays an important role in modulating nitric oxide levels by inhibiting an important enzyme, phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5), that breaks down another enzyme, 3,5-cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP). cGMP signals the smooth muscles to relax, enhancing blood flow. So, PDE-5 inhibition prolongs the action of cGMP, making possible the flooding of skeletal muscle tissue with nutrient-rich blood and oxygen, leading to improved muscle contraction, intense pump and vascularity, as well as promoting an environment conducive to anabolism. This PDE-5 inhibition is also the mechanism behind icariins dramatic improvement in sexual function in users. Furthermore, icariin, like testosterone, competes with glucocorticoids for receptor-site binding. By blocking glucocorticoids from binding to cortisol receptor sites, icariin inhibits cortisol action. This leads to an increase in the testosterone:cortisol ratio, triggering enhanced protein synthesis and anabolism. Furthermore, icariin produces a boost in cAMP levels, demonstrates estrogen-modulation properties, stimulates prolactin inhibition (via its action on dopamine receptors, thereby triggering an increased testosterone production), and promotes increased production of luteinizing hormone. Net, the cAMP elevation, selective cGMP inhibition, glucocorticoid antagonism, and estrogen modulation, all combine to improve the testosterone:cortisol and testosterone:estrogen ratios. Furthermore, via its function as an important acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, icariin boosts levels of the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine. This inhibition drives movement and promotes stronger muscle contractions, and a dense skeletal muscle structure.
Caffeine, a methylxanthine and popular stimulant, not only possesses lipolytic and appetite suppressant properties, but also helps to enhance endurance and extent the effect of other stimulants. As a CNS stimulant, caffeine works as an adenosine A1 and A2A receptor antagonist. This is significant because adenosine modulates the action of neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and acetylcholine. Adenosine blocks the activity of excitatory neurotransmitters, creating a tatigue and a feeling of apathy. By antagonizing adenosine, caffeine stimulates nerve-cell activity, creating enhanced alertness and clarity. Furthermore, caffeine inhibits the enzyme, phosphodiesterase (PDE), that breaks down cAMP. This PDE inhibition leads to sustained cAMP activity and boosting norepinephrine, thereby up-regulating thermogenesis and lipolysis. These pathways ensure caffeine traces a synergistic action with 1,3-Dimethylamylamine and other agents in Phenedrine, creating an optimally fuelled fat-burning furnace in your body.
Something else: Two enzymes, arginase and nitric oxide synthase compete against each other for the nitric-oxide metabolic pathway. The enzyme arginase converts arginine to ornithine and urea. Nitric oxide synthase converts arginine to nitric oxide, the potent vasodilator. A higher expression of the arginase enzyme leads to higher ornithine production, but less nitric oxide production. Now enters caffeine (methylxanthine caffeine). Caffeine inhibits arginase activity. It does this by inhibiting the so-called adenosine receptors, leading to higher levels of free adenosine. Now, adenosine, adenine, inosine, and uric acid, are known to be competitive arginase inhibitors. Furthermore, caffeine and caffeine-related compounds, also produce arginase inhibition by raising norepinephrine and cAMP. The caffeine-triggered arginase inhibition produces an elevated expression of the nitric-oxide synthase enzyme. This means even more nitric oxide is made available, leading to stronger vasodilation (and pump).
Also known as Geranamine, 1,3-Dimethylamylamine, a derivative of geranium oil, possesses a pharmacological activity similar to that of epinephrine (adrenaline), the bodys endogenous chemical messenger. As a potent fat burner, 1,3-Dimethylamylamine activates an enzyme, adenylate cyclase, that elevates cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in cells, triggering fat metabolism. This is also one of the chemical pathways employed by ephedrine to potentiate fat burning. Furthermore, 1,3-Dimethylamylamine demonstrates potent central-nervous system (CNS) stimulation, leading to enhanced energy and physical performance, heightened focus and concentration, enabling the user to achieve a previously unknown intensity during training. The user will experience a significant elevation in energy levels without the usual crash common with many other stimulants.
1,3-Dimethylamylamine is often combined with caffeine to further consolidate the heightened energy, intense concentration and focus, as well as euphoric feelings.
N-Methyl-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL
This is a truly unique and novel compound, and one of compounds that sets Phenadrine apart from competition. Chances are you are familiar with the pharmacological pathways of Beta-Phenylethylamine (PEA). You may also be familiar with N-Methyl-Beta-Phenylethylamine HCL. Yet, do not confuse N-Methyl-Beta-Phenylethylamine HCL with our much more potent agent, N-Methyl-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL with several methyl groups that render it super stable and remorselessly effective. This novel agent works! That simple!
But why are PEA and its molecular derivatives even important for fat loss?
A remarkable compound, even in its pure form, Beta-Phenylethylamine (PEA), a catecholamine precursor and nutrient found in chocolate, is known to be a very clean stimulant with the remarkable ability to achieve central-nervous-system stimulation without producing nervousness or the jittery feeling associated with other stimulants. Like norepinephrine, the bodys most potent endogenous fat-burning hormone, PEA acts on alpha-receptors in the brain, triggering the release of the feel-good hormone, dopamine (3,4-dihydroxy-phenethylamine) in neural cells. PEA is also responsible for chocolates effect on mood, sense of satiety, reduced food cravings, mild euphoria, as well as increased metabolic rate (by modulating thyroid function). Also known as a neuromodulator, PEA promotes mental alertness, focus and concentration. By regulating catecholamines such as epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline) that act on hormone-sensitive lipase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the mobilization of fatty tissue from storage cites, PEA elevates the metabolic rate, ultimately leading to increased fat burning. Unfortunately, PEA is rapidly metabolised in the body by type B monoamine oxidase and has a limited ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, thus preventing it from unleashing its full effects. The challenge was to obtain a form of PEA with a type B monoamine-oxidase inhibitor property. N-Methyl-Beta-Phenylethylamine HCL is an N-Methyl derivative of Beta-Phenylethylamine. This methylated form of PEA is dramatically more potent than pure PEA, and takes PEAs CNS stimulation and fat-burning several notches higher. While we could have used this compound, we decided to aim still higher. Now enters N-Methyl-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL. This novel and carefully engineered unique agent represents the most potent form of PEA ever developed. It is not an N-Methyl derivative of N-Methyl-Beta-Phenylethylamine HCL, rather an N-Methyl derivative of methylated Beta-Phenylethylamine HCL! It is like double methylation! Such compounds do not come more potent than this! Technically speaking, we astronomically boosted the pharmacokinetic value of PEA! This double methylated form unites the finest properties of PEA such as easily crossing the blood-brain barrier to elevate feelings of euphoria, intensifying fat-burning due to optimised beta-receptor agonism while demonstrating unprecedented stability to B monoamine oxidation, implying a longer-lasting and significantly more intensive overall action. Our N-Methyl-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL is by far the most potent designer fat-loss agent ever developed, and you would not find it in many of fat-loss products around. It elevates the potency of our synergistic blend to never-before-seen levels! You will be convinced!
Methyl-Synephrine HCL
Do not mistake this compound for pure synephrine! It is light years away, in terms of superiority. If synephrine worked for you, Methyl-Synephrine HCL will blow your mind! First, back to the basics. What is synephrine? Obtained from the citrus tree known as Citrus aurantium or Bitter Orange, synephrine is an active alkaloid with structural similarities to epinephrine and norepinephrine. Synephrines claimed thermogenic, lipolytic, and appetite suppression effects are derived from its alpha-adrenergic properties that provoke the activation of beta-3 receptors. The claim that synephrines beta-3-receptor binding triggers lipolysis at very high dosages appeared to based on Carpene et al (1999). Subsequent studies, e.g., Larsen et al (2002) and Bent et al (2004), however, demonstrated that beta-3-receptor agonists appeared to have dramatically less lipolytic action in human fat cells, compared to animal fat cells.
The picture, however, appears to change significantly with the use of a recently developed unique form of synephrine referred to as Methyl Synephrine. Using the methylated form of synephrine (derived by substituting or attaching a methyl group to different molecules) dramatically alters its pharmacological pathway, and appears to make the compound significantly more effective than pure synephrine. Methyl synephrine is an adrenergic amine that has unique and amplified pharmacological effects by acting, not only as a beta-3 receptor agonist, but also as an alpha-1 adrenergic agonist. This difference is significant, because pure synephrine is postulated to act as a beta-3-receptor agonist only. This means methyl synephrine works by significantly up-regulating the metabolic rate and enhancing fat metabolism and thermogenesis, while only mildly stimulating the central nervous system without adversely impacting blood pressure and heart function, unlike beta-2 receptor agonists such as ephedrine that trigger anxiety and irregular heartbeat. As a beta-3-receptor agonist, methyl synephrine up-regulates the action of epinephrine and norepinephrine (the most potent endogenous fat-burning agent around) within adipose tissue, leading to significant lipolysis. So methyl synephrine not only up-regulates fat breakdown (as a beta-3 receptor agonist), but also profoundly enhances the burning of released body fat for energy (as an alpha-1 agonist). Double punch!
As you can see, Phenadrine is no regular kitchen-sink formula. Rather, it represents a new standard in double-punch products that effectively combine intense-workout potentiating compounds with advanced lipolytic and thermogenic agents to deliver the performance you are looking for, and that we are known for. Our unique matrix of selected agents is delivered in pharmaceutical-grade purity and in potent per-dose-amounts that work every time. If you are looking for an effective double-punch product beyond the reach of competition, your search stops at Phenadrine! Advanced Lipolytic Stimulant. Intense Workout Potentiator.

First of all, you need to ask yourself what wetland delineation means. Wetland delineation identifies the existence and the physical limits of a wet area for federal, state and local regulations purposes. When headed on a wetland delineation experience, there are a number of tools you need to carry with you. You need to carry with you best gears possible. Possessing a list to confirm whether you have carried all the gears necessary is an excellent idea. With this , your job will be easier as you will have with you all the tools required. Below are some of the field tools you need to have with you during the action.
A Soil color chart is utilized to complete the soil horizon of the wetland sample factors. The Munsell Soil Color Chart has been the go-to standard for soil color chart over the years. It is a soil pit color book that is small in size and very expensive. The disadvantage about it is the fact that it is not water proof. Thre are competitors that you might try that are smaller and water proof.
You need a quality pair of boots for this activity. Go for boots with comfortable neoprene uppers with solid tread on the bottom. This will ensure safety of your feet and comfort ability. Go for the best brands which will provide you the best experience. Cheap is obviously expensive. Therefore spend a little more to have a rewarding experience.
A soil knife is used during soil profile inspection. Once again settle for quality because there are a number of functions that the knife undertakes. Cutting of origins and carving out dirt samples are some of the things which the knife is used for. Do your research about the best soil knife to buy so that you achieve a smooth experience when in the field.
The Qualities of a good rain jacket are that they ought to be long enough, light in weight, have nicely placed pockets and most importantly breathable. It is advisable to carry them with you even when there are no signs of rain. For those working in high elevations, it will be handy to equip yourself with this piece of clothes. If you want to learn more about Wetland Delineation, you can visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_camera.
A Backpack has become the most crucial tool to get because you will use it to carry other tools. The bag ought to be large in size and light in weight. It should be large enough to accommodate your other gears. Do research or ask the experts on the most appropriate bag to carry for your delineation field day.
Wetland Delineation Flags are used to flag and number points in delineation. This is a requirement in most regions. It's a good idea to order you flags punctually before the actual moment. Get the action camera here!

The IRS is refunding a total of $10 million to thousands of tax preparers who paid to take a competency test.
A federal court struck down IRS regulations in 2013 that sought to require some tax preparers to get training and take a test. An appellate court upheld the ruling last year, saying the IRS lacked the legal authority to mandate the testing.
Continue Reading Below
The IRS said about 89,000 tax preparers paid $116 apiece to take the test. The agency said Thursday it is issuing refunds to those preparers.
The Obama administration has proposed giving the IRS the authority to regulate paid tax-return preparers. As it now stands, there are no federal rules governing who can charge clients to prepare their tax returns.

Why we do it
RiVAL's name indicates its orientation.
the Lab is focused on studying, theorizing and intervening in the imagination, a force that is considered not only as a private individual capacity, but a shared sociological process, key to the fabric of social, cultural and economic relations and institutions. The role of the intellectual is conceived as that of an activist in the realm of the imagination, offering ideas, information, narratives, methods and experiences that challenge and awaken the imagination in the name of social justice.
The Lab takes as its objective the reimagining of value in the broadest sense. Value can speak to both the concept of economic measurement and also of cultural belief, and the Lab is particularly interested in the intersection of these two dimensions. It is dedicated to what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke of as a "revolution in social values" that he saw as the prerequisite to the possibility of racial and economic justice: not only a redistribution of wealth or the transformations of opinions, but a holistic overturning of preconceptions, prejudices, institutional norms and established conventions.
The Lab takes activism as its mandate, based on the acknowledgement that all research and all knowledge is always already political, in the sense that it is bound up in social power relations, and in the moral duty of the intellectual to speak out against injustice, to stimulate transformative thought, and to be an active part of working with movements of achieve social transformation. As an action-lab, RiVAL pursues these goals and themes on two fronts. First, it seeks to understand, enact and experiment with the ways academic research in the social sciences and humanities and inquiry can work in solidarity with activism for social justice. Second, it seeks to refine academic research and inquiry as methods of activism. An "action-lab" is not a sanitary, reclusive environment; it is an open and engaged part of the world that offers up the University's resources and gifts to broader publics.
For more information on these topics, methods and approaches, see the published work of RiVAL co-director Dr. Max Haiven: maxhaiven.com/writing

Even at his debut with the Philharmoniker in February 2006, Petrenko impressed the orchestra with his personality and his way of making music, which is meticulous, scrupulous, yet passionate and rousing. "When you stand before an orchestra, so many sonic possibilities come to a conductor. Anyone who does not have their own point of view about the sound falls through the cracks," as Petrenko said in an interview with Alexander Bader which is also available in the Digital Concert Hall. At that time, he was already known to Berlin audiences as general music director of the Komische Oper. He took up this office in the 2002/2003 season, and from that point took his orchestra to the highest musical heights. The Komische Oper was his springboard into the world: Petrenko now conducts at the Vienna State Opera, the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, the Metropolitan Opera and in Bayreuth, where he conducted the Ring des Nibelungen. in the staging by Hans Castorf. Since the 2013/2014 season, Petrenko has been general music director of the Bayerische Staastsoper where he has celebrated one triumph after another. The Bavarian State Orchestra, one of Germany's outstanding opera orchestras in Germany, has – according to the tenor of the press – become even better, more slimmed-down in tone and more precise in its intonation. The magazine Opernwelt has named Petrenko "Conductor of the Year" several times.
A native of Omsk, the artist, who studied in both his home town and Vienna, initially learned his craft in smaller houses: at the Vorarlberger Landestheater, the Vienna Volksoper and the Meininger Theater, where he conducted a much-admired Ring des Nibelungen together with Christine Mielitz. Since his debut, Petrenko has portrayed himself as an interpreter of the Russian masters in concerts with the Philharmoniker, as well as with works by Béla Bartók, Edward Elgar and Ludwig van Beethoven. In addition to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Haffner Symphony and Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's Pathétique, his most recent concerts with the orchestra in March 2017 included The Wound-Dresser by John Adams, the 2016/2017 season's Composer in Residence. An exciting programme compilation that reflects various aspects of Petrenko's artistic work. As the conductor says to Alexander Bader in the Digital Concert Hall, a concert programme is successful when the musicians play something where they have some fun, and the audience hears something which can both teach them something and move them at the same time. In his new role as chief conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker, which he assumes in August 2019 he looks to the future – as he revealed during the press conference of his contract signing in October 2016 – full of optimism: "Through my few guest appearances with this orchestra, I have gained the impression that together we can achieve much artistically."

Deathly Hallows
Deathly Hallows - up early Saturday morning to drive to SIC gift/book/shop Dalrymples, which I fancy being the perfect store to buy a Harry Potter book, because it sounds like it could be a shop in Diagon Alley. Anyway, I sit down to read, even read a few hours laying in the sun (working on a tan this year) And after being interupted by sleep, the need to eat and go to the bathroom and 4 hours at the part time job on Sunday, I finshed up the book Sunday night. Overall, I liked the book very much and thought it was as good as the others. OOTP is probably my fav in the series. I thought it was suspenseful, surprising and sad.
What I liked - we all knew who RAB was, but I liked the story about what really happened to him in the cave, and read that part over again several times. That was sad (Sirius was so wrong about him) and I even felt bad for Kreacher. During the end battle when Kreacher was yelling to fight for master Regulus was kind of corny, but hit me as very sentimental too.
I liked learning about Dumbledore's family, and wondering about their secret throughout the book, and I was happy with the outcome of the family's secret, and glad to formally meet Aberforth (but what exactly did he do with that goat that got him in such trouble?)
Snape, I knew it! (so did everyone else) but I was so glad to hear the whole story and see those moments in his life. His death was kind of a let down though. I thought he would die, but it wasn't a very big deal in the book, no fight to the death, just a quick surprise attack. But do you really think you could put aside the horrible way that some treated you the whole time you knew him, and knowing that he hated your father and his actions caused the death of your parents - could you forgive all that and name your kid after that person? (We'll get to the rest of the cornyness of the epilogue later) I liked that he wanted to see Harry's green eyes before he died to remind him of Lily (Is that what JK meant when she said Harry's eye color was important? I don't see any other green eyed importance in the book)
I was glad to see Percy come back to the Weasley family in the end, but I thought he'd be the one to die, not Fred. I guess that puts and end to any dreams of JK writing The Adventures of Fred & George in the future.
Neville the leader of the underground movement at Hogwarts - I loved that, I wanted him to turn out to be heroic. I liked that Harry trusted him to kill Nagini. But I wish he had been the one to kill Bellatrix. Maybe that's too obvious of a thing to do, but it would be the right thing.
Wormtail - glad he's dead, and glad that he kind-of died by his own hand. There should have been more suffering though. But I guess it would be pretty horrific to be killed by your own silver hand.
Why'd she do that?
Remus and Tonks deaths were just body references. We didn't get to actually hear how they died in battle, I guess it was Dolohov who killed them? Their deaths weren't sad at all the way it was written (and to me, Remus had the saddest life of all the HP charactors) Teddy's birth was more sad than their deaths (because I read spoilers and knew Remus would die) so that was very bittersweet. Dobby's funeral was sadder than their deaths. So Harry is the godfather, but he's 17, who will raise the baby, Tonk's mom?
It was kind of cool to see Molly kick some ass, but her going after Bellatrix yelling 'Bitch' was kind of corny, and Neville should have been the one to kill Bellatrix anyway
The whole talk with Dumbledore and Harry in the 'station' was a bit dull and seemed kind of too long, I guess I was anxious to get to the real battle. The whole thing with wands and stealing them or killing their owner and the true ownerships was a bit confusing.
Voldemort's death was good. But he really just killed himself with the spell backfiring onto himself (didn't he learn not to do that the first time he tried to kill Harry?) I guess that was the safe ending because technically you could say that Harry has never killed anyone.
OK, the epiloque. I'm reading that alot of people have mixed feelings about it or don't like it at all. Yeah, it was kind of corny especially 'Albus Severus' and where did the names Rose & Hugo come from? But what's Harry doing for a living now, living off his parents gold? That's what I want to know. I'd rather read what all the characters are doing in their lives in the past 19 years, not just the trio. What about Hagrid and hid gal pal and Gwarp? How many other grandchildren do Molly & Arthur have and what are the other Weasley's doing, especially George? And Neville, Luna, etc. I'd rather have read a paragraph on each of them instead of the trio sending their own children off to Hogwarts.
***Updated - JK did give some info in her Today Show interview - http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19959323/ - why didn't she put that stuff in the book?
I'm re-reading the book now, so I'll pick up on things that I breezed over the first time. But did I miss something? Did it turn out with an extra Horcrux? Was Nagini a Horcrux or not because she would make 7 - diary, ring, locket, urn, diadem, Harry and Nagini. I thought their were 6 Horcruxeseses and the 7th piece of the soul was still in Voldemort?
All in all I did love it! OK, back to the vintage.

I just finished my 2nd reading and I am even happier with the book then I was on my 1st reading.
I will admit that the only thing I did not like in the book was the use of "Sev" in the Prince's Story. That annoying nickname is now canon.
To me the deaths, even Snape's are all about the randomness of violence and how even after you have devoted your life to something you just might get screwed in the end and die alone and unloved, but I'm pretty cynical that way.
He was always gonna die. Would I have preferred a more glorious one for Snape?
Well sure.
But he was a man who never grew up, who could not get past his horrible childhood nor his 1st love or his childhood rivals.
I like that JK makes it clear in her interview that he was "immensly brave" but not really a hero. I also like it fits in with the whole "don't judge a book by its cover" theme that runs though out the books.
BUT she does throw us a bone in that we do not have a funeral or a headmaster's portrait on the wall.
No one will ever make me believe Snape was not prepared for Nagini ...well at least until she says "he is dead" or puts a date of death in her encyclopedia.
While I wish Neville had killed Bella (and really he could have never beat her and in the end he was a hero by killing that damn snake) I thought Molly was made of awesome in that scene.
One of the main themes of the books was what love, a mother's love, could accomplish.
It turned Narcissa into a traitor (and how much I love the fact that in the end the only thing the Malfoys really cared about was Draco), made Molly a warrior and saved Harry's life.
On a forum someone was upset that Molly "who has not done anything for the Order" all of a sudden turned out to be this bad ass and that she did not deserve the glory of killing Bella.
I disagree that what Molly was doing was not useful to the order.
She provided a warm place in a cold world for order members, a place to meet, a place to find sustenance and companionship and proved once again that there is no such thing as "just a housewife".
I could go on and on...I feel drained and happy to see that Harry goes on to live a life of joy with the family he always wanted.
I think I have to make this into a post on my blog.

Rereading it, I think Kreacher's Tale & The Prince's Tale are my favorite chapters amongst other, but those two stand out.

The skinny on coconut fat
I've cooked for some people with pretty serious food restrictions, either by choice or because of allergies or intolerance.
It's possible that I am now faced with my greatest challenge. I won't lay out the full extent of it but I'll say the list of forbidden foods is umm quite large. He's a lovely person, however, and therefore worth the effort.

Russell pays homage to Russell Sr. with the "Cotton Shot" Why Not Zer0.1s
Russell Westbrook's been dominating the opposition and keeping the Thunder's hopes alive with his game all season long. Over the last few months, we've seen the reigning MVP wear his first-ever on-court signature shoe with Jordan Brand, the Why Not Zer0.1. We've seen several colorways come out since it was announced and we're getting a colorway that might appeal to RW and OKC fans alike.
Growing up, Russell would work out and shoot baskets with his father, Russell Sr. He would call Jr.'s nothing but net baskets "Cotton Shots". Coming in a bright orange, hyper blue colorway that matches the OKC colors, the "Cotton Shot" Why Not Zer0.1s are sure to stand out while you get buckets like Russ.
The Jordan Why Not Zer0.1 "Cotton Shot" drops tomorrow, February 25, at Titan (Fort, Conrad, Vertis and Titan22.com) and will retail for Php 6,595.

Britain's Farnborough Air Show wrapped up last week after seven ear-splitting days. To impress the excited kids and jaded dealers in attendance, the U.S. sent an F-8, an F-15, and a pair of F-16s. But the much anticipated F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter was a no-show. After a runway fire grounded the fleet earlier this month, the Department of Defense suspended negotiations to purchase the next batch of the planes.
The troubled fighter is only the latest in a long and growing number
of cases where the DOD has bought poorly designed and massively
overpriced equipment for the nation's armed forces. Across the military,
the average major Pentagon acquisition comes in at 40 percent over budget,
according to a recent report from the Government Accountability Office.
In spite of the Pentagon's well-documented history of profligacy, the
Congress continues to enlarge its responsibilities. The DOD's mandate
now includes wide-ranging scientific and medical research and
international infrastructure projects, diffusing the focus on its core
mission—like buying planes that don't set themselves afire on the
runway. That's a disservice to America's military and a burden to the
country's taxpayers.
The F-35′s grounding is the latest setback in the development of an aircraft that's already cost $400 billion. A recent GAO report noted that cost estimates for operating and supporting the F-35 fleet are now more than $1 trillion, "http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2014-07-28/the-pentagon-pays-too-much-for-everything-even-prescription-drugs#r=shared

The Monastery of Agios Markos is found near Karies, only 6 km from Chios Town. Its high location gives the best view of the surrounding landscape.
Housed in the 19th-century Ottoman mosque in the central square of Chios Town, this museum was founded in 1980 and contains a collection of items and findings that have been discovered on the island and donated from private collections. Its exhibits date from the early Christian times till the 17th century.
Homerus Stone or Daskalopetra is a historical place in the area of Vrontados. According to tradition, this is actually the stone where Homer was seating on and was narrating his poems.
This small museum is housed in an old cell in the Monastery of Nea Moni. It houses fine post-Byzantine icons, silver ecclesiastical works, embroideries, and woven textiles.
This folk art museum is located in the beautiful village of Pyrgi and it was founded by the cultural society "Adamantios Korais". It houses a rich collection of rural and agricultural tools, photographic and local press files and handicraft objects.

The Monastery of Nea Moni, between the villages of Karyes and Avgonyma, is one of the oldest monasteries in Greece. It was constructed in the 15th century and recently it was declared a World Heritage Monument by Unesco.
This cave close to Olympi village is another miracle of nature. It was explored in 1985 and it is actually a cave gorge, 60m wide and with a humidity of 95%.
This tiny island with a rich natural history is a great daily excursions destination from Chios. It has traditional architecture, lovely beaches, and a calm environment. Daily boats to Oinousses depart from the port of Chios Town.

Hundreds of Colorado community, climate and fracking activists protested a Bureau of Land Management oil and gas lease auction May 12, 2016 in Lakewood. The group rallied to disrupt the auction which was being held inside the hotel. The groups plan was to demand that public lands be no longer drilled, mined, or fracked. The protest was part of a global week of action focused on citizen action to keep fossil fuels in the ground and promote clean renewable energy, and comes days after the Colorado Supreme Court denied local authority to regulate fracking.
